Laconia Republican* Mike Bordes is not the best Republican. You could do better. His NH House Republican Alliance Score is 78%. His NH Liberty rating is a more disappointing 66%. In other words, he’s not the best Republican, but that’s not what concerns him.
He’s worried that you might find out and, come the next election, choose someone a bit more Republican than Mike Bordes. That would not be difficult to do, so to push back, he has taken out a full-page ad in the Laconia Daily Sun to tell you how some shady third-party activism has misrepresented him.
It almost seems like he’s trying to overcompensate for something. I wonder what that might be. Perhaps a proposed amendment to the parental rights bill attributed to Bordes and the anti-parent ilk in the NH House, which denied parents specific rights as regards their children. Skip wrote about it when it surfaced. The amendment would have stripped a few things from the bill they didn’t want parents doing.
- If parents dared ask if the school is using some other name for their child than the one they gave them (like Danielle instead of Dan), teachers and staff could lie to parents.
- If parents dared ask teachers and staff if they referred to their child by a gender other than the one at birth, the amendment would have allowed them to lie to parents.
- If parents dared ask if teachers or staff were engaged in any intervention to affirm that different gender, they could lie to parents.
I’m not saying that teachers never lie to parents about their children or that they do lie, but they could. And have: “School District Lied* to a Mom About Turning Her Daughter Transgender So She’s Suing Them.” Or, “Florida father sues school after daughter’s suicide attempts, says gender counseling hidden from parents.”
And every public school pedophile ever arrested for grooming or abusing students lied quite a bit, I bet. Given the rise in grooming literature (at almost every grade level) and the shift in focus from badly run academic establishments to poorly managed gender/mental health facilities – “schools” working to deny parents this information if they asked seems like something other than common sense.

It is certainly not pro-parental rights—quite the opposite.
Absent an amendment that removes these rights, the other way to ensure teachers and staff can lie to parents is to vote against the unamended Parental Bill of Rights, which Mike Bordes did. He helped kill it.
Feel free to dance around that issue, but Bordes is covering for in-school activism that deliberately directs children to question their sex and then, under the cover of a safe space, hide that subterfuge from parents and taxpayers despite the real risks to the child’s mental and physical health, not to mention government employees teaching children to lie to their parents.
Mike Bordes isn’t just anti-parental rights; he’s anti-public health, anti-mental health, anti-child, and anti-family, and he’s going to need a bigger newspaper to try and whine-wash all that away.
