By hiking interest rates, the Federal Reserve has pulled some of its monetary stimulus out of the economy. While the Fed hasn’t done nearly enough to put the inflationary fire it lit with more than a decade of easy money, cooling consumer price index (CPI) indicates that this has put a modest dent in price inflation — for now.
Biden Airlifts 70 Government Workers Out of Sudan, Leaves 16,000 ‘other’ Americans Behind
American citizens left behind in Sudan may have to accept that to Joe Biden, they are a lot like military hardware in Afghanistan. They were left behind to be sold to China or “used” by the locals.
Remember, Cash is King!
Cash is king, at least until our “overlords” at the Federal Reserve and the Totalitarians that have infested the Executive Branch decided to make our paper (actually made of a special cloth) dollars digital – just PERFECT for tracking everything we’d do).
Despite Hyperbolic “Bud-Light-Sales-Are-Down Headlines” BUD Looks Fine…
If you search any variation of “Bud Light Sales down,” the results will look like a drunk guy peeing in an alley, as in, all over the place. Down 30%, 69%, and 80%. You will find fact-checks by major media outlets whose relationship with the truth is spotty at best. But are they wrong?
Tucker Carlson Gets It … The Low-T NHGOP Doesn’t … The Communists (aka NH-Democrats) Are EVIL
Tucker Carlson keynoted the recent Heritage 50th anniversary event. Every NHGOP State Rep, State Senator, etc. etc. etc. should have to listen to his speech. My words, not his: We are NOT engaged in a battle of ideas with the NH-Democrats; we do NOT share common goals with the NH-Democrats but differ on the means … Read more
Skip’s Sauntering Snippets – This Bud’s Not for Me Edition
Update at the bottom and sets up “context” for this sordid Mulvaney marketing fiasco: especially his bankroll and his lust for fame. I am a bit behind on this topic, but it’s clear that the Trans-Authoritarian crowd was having a field day with the rise of Mulvaney and his “365 days of Womanhood” celebration. And … Read more
Breaking – No More Tucker Carlson on FOX NEWS; CNN Fires Don Lemon

The Skip & Tom Weight Challenge – Week 7
OK, a month and a half in. My expected loss, due to illness last week, showed up. However, now I’ve been stuck at that weight for a few days now no matter what I eat – or don’t. I’m feeling better to the point of feeling normal (TMEW and the Grandson are still suffering the … Read more
How About Some More Netflixwashing of History
The entertainment industry is filled with Winston Smiths. Those tasked with – obsessed with – reimaging details to fit a BIPOC worldview in the name of social justice. A world where the color of the skin matters more than anything else.
No Good Deed goes Unpunished
I have painfully slogged through a number of Right-to-Know Court challenges and the process should have been much easier. Most Judges do not like citizen Right-to-Know cases as they are boring and burdensome.
Second Amendment Happy Ending Story – When You Decide to Invade a House That Isn’t Yours…
We know that the Second Amendment doesn’t exist simply for self-defense but there are too many evil people out there that believe they can do bad things to you without retribution. Being closer to 70 than 60, there are a lot of younger men out there against whom I’d never stand a chance in a … Read more

Don’t Invite Destruction Into Our State by Legalizing Recreational Marijuana
House Bill 639, to legalize the sale of recreational marijuana in New Hampshire, is being considered by the NH Senate Judiciary Committee and the following was my testimony this week in opposition to the bill.
NO. Communists (aka NH-Democrats) Are Not “Good People”
Mike Moffett has a post up at NH-NeverTrump Journal regarding the ConVal education funding lawsuit. I don’t disagree with the gist of his post … that how and how much to fund public education are questions of policy, not questions of law, that are supposed to be decided in the ballot-box, not the courtroom. What … Read more
Exposing Earth Day
This morning, I received numerous E-mails from companies- national and local- from Best Buy to Miles Kimball to the Monadnock Ledger -pushing Earth Day. I flipped on my TV to see that even Fox News is also in on the Earth Day hustle. No surprise. Fox News also promotes “Pride Month.”
Sun-King Sununu’s Agenda Versus Trump’s Agenda
One of the many lies Sun-King Sununu has been disseminating as part of his make-believe, look-at-me, look-at-me Presidential campaign is that he is forward-looking while Trump is backward-looking, more specifically that Trump is obsessed with the 2020 election and has no agenda but revenge. Trump, however, recently laid out his agenda at an RNC event … Read more

After-Action Observations on the Parents’ Rights Rally in Concord
“I Will Not Co-Parent With the Government.” That sign and others like it appeared in abundance in Concord on Tuesday. That was the prevailing sentiment of the strong and positive crowd assembled in front of the Capitol in Concord this past Tuesday, April 18, 2023, as a prelude to the House hearing on HB272, a bill codifying parental rights of school children.

Just What We’ve Been Saying for Years: Environmentalism Has Become a Religion: “The Case For Making Earth Day a Religious Holiday”
Earth Day was yesterday – after already having 53 of them since 1973, did anyone notice #54 other than a few platitudes on the news? WMUR (NH’s only TV station) “greenwashed” it with a package that was more normal “pick up the trash” than anything else. Even the now-pablum-filled TreeHugger could only roust up a … Read more
