By Rep.John Sellers – Everyone who reads the Grok knows the primary is around the corner. We have a few races in which I believe if the right person gets that position, then the citizens of NH will be winners. This is why I am supporting Chuck Morse (governor) and Casey Crane (CD2).

By J. Peder Zane – RealClear Wire Most of us get the big things right: Don’t touch fire, wrestle alligators, or play in traffic.

By Ken Goodall – I have supported many candidates who spoke their minds, sometimes off the cuff and not thought out, but I knew where they were coming from. Trump said Mexico would pay for the wall but with no explanation, and he said a group would not have to vote again, which could easily … Read more
By Ann Coulter | Daily Caller – Could someone teach Kamala to laugh only when something is funny? It’s not the sound of Kamala Harris’s laugh that is so irritating although, to be fair, it is. It’s that she laughs when nothing remotely funny has been said. The blandest statements (usually her own) prompt her … Read more
By Russ Payne – Beware of the coming Bird Flu Pandemic flying over our nation’s presidential election this fall. The Plandemic gurus of the UN/WHO/WEF and their complicit domestic partners, the NIH/DHHS/NIAID & the CDC all have special plans to protect you from the Bird Flu. Would you believe they are already talking about another … Read more
By Carly Atchison Bird – Since Democrats replaced President Joe Biden with Vice President Kamala Harris as their candidate, blue state voters who had once accepted the inevitable victory of former President Donald Trump have been resurrected.

By Ben Weingarten – Real Clear Wire More than a dozen jurisdictions run by Democrats – including Washington D.C., and several adjacent Maryland municipalities – allow noncitizens to vote in some local elections.

The last of the Baby Boom generation–the largest generation in American history–will have reached retirement age for maximum Social Security benefits as of the end of 2031. With the combination of tens of millions of Americans no longer paying in, doubling in medical and educational costs every 10-11 years, the National Debt (already nearly $110,000 … Read more
I have a few points of fact regarding Senator Bill Gannon’s so-called conservative record. There is a widening lack of transparency in our state Senate due to a lack of roll calling being done which makes it impossible to know how individual Senator’s vote. The striking fact is Gannon’s rating is a C+ from the … Read more
There has been a lot of talk on social media and around town. I thought I would share a little and offer some insight to folks.

A little more than four years ago, a Democratic Party desperate for a viable presidential candidate not named “Bernie” or “Elizabeth” turned to good ol’ “Amtrak Joe” to deliver the goods. The mission: To “save” the country from President Donald Trump and his allegedly dangerous band (approximately 73 million of them) of “MAGA” supporting Republicans. … Read more
If Americans thought that the Biden administration was the most far-left, big-government, elite Democratic administration that America has ever seen, they are in for a rude awakening. As the Left has effectively silenced the voices of 14 million voters by deposing President Joe Biden from the party ticket, they have paved the way for Vice President Kamala … Read more
In the past, we’ve gotten gems like Sleepy Joe, Crooked Hillary and Meatball Ron. Even Kamala Harris — Laffin’ Kamala or Kamabla — has a few options to choose from. But her running mate, Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, has yet to be blessed with a signature Donald Trump nickname. Perhaps Trump is weighing his … Read more
The Father of the Constitution, James Madison’s prophetic wisdom must be restored: “What is government itself but the greatest of all reflections on human nature? If men were angels, no government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men, over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must … Read more
Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris is not missing any chance to condemn Republicans for threatening to censor libraries and school textbooks. But she is overlooking the heavy-handed record of her chief spokesperson, Brian Fallon. Unfortunately, a recent Supreme Court decision opens the floodgates for far more federal censorship. When Fallon was press chief at the … Read more
CONCORD, N.H. – Today, Governor Sununu signed HB 1607, legislation aimed at fixing New Hampshire’s broken safe haven law to save babies from fatal abandonment or abuse.

Last week the national debt reached 35 trillion dollars, a mere seven months after the debt reached 34 trillion dollars. To put this in perspective, the national debt first reached one trillion dollars in October of 1981, almost 200 years after the Constitution’s ratification! The fact that the government was adding one trillion dollars in … Read more
According to the most recent report from the federal government’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, the US economy added 114,000 jobs (according to the establishment survey) during July. This was a lackluster number that came in below expectations, and it wasn’t enough to prevent a surge in the unemployment rate up to 4.3 percent. Moreover, the “underemployment” … Read more
