Masks Are the New Desks

January 8, 2021 Ian Underwood

As we count down the days until the federal mask mandate, and the federal economic regulations that are sure to follow it, it’s worth thinking about how America, once the world’s most stalwart opponent of communism, has come to embrace the notion that a small group of ‘experts’ — most of them not elected by … Read more

Pelosi Introduces Compelled Speech in the US House of Representatives

January 8, 2021

The new House rules package uses gender-neutral pronouns and familial relationships. This is “Newspeak.” It is an effort by this totalitarian regime to limit vocabulary. Clearly they feel the need “to diminish their range of thought.” That’s what works for House Democrats.

They Might Not Be Experts at Anything but Abusing Authority.

January 7, 2021 Steve MacDonald

I’ve continued to craft these Threat Index Updates since Dec 14th. Tracking cases – this is, after all, a casedemic now – and comparing that mission-critical data to what really matters; hospitalizations and deaths—no scary headlines. We want to know what your odds are of surviving a positive test.

Elections Have Consequences

January 7, 2021 Op-Ed

Data Point – 75% of Likely Voters Prefer Capitalism to Socialism

January 7, 2021 Skip

Being so immersed in what the Left believes, sometimes it’s hard to keep perspective on things. For this, WHEW! Reformatted, emphasis mine: A new poll by The Heartland Institute and Rasmussen Reports finds that a vast majority of likely voters prefer a free-market economic system over a socialist economic system. When asked on December 6-7, “Which … Read more

Woke … What is it? What Will it be?

January 8, 2021January 7, 2021 Steve MacDonald

Today “Woke” is a concept symbolizing correct perception and awareness of social issues. It is an unenlightening social movement. Woke has become a generic slang term. It broadly associates with leftist politics, social justice, and activist causes.

Do NH citizens have a “right of revolution”?

January 7, 2021 Burt Janz

(This article was written by someone else. I have his permission to repost this anonymously: he does not want his name released in public as stated in the last sentence. The only cleanup I have done is to format for easier reading. I have not changed one word.) The NH Supreme court a few years … Read more

Lincoln Warned Us

January 7, 2021January 7, 2021

Violence in DC: Momentary Flash, or Ignition Point?

August 6, 2021January 7, 2021 NITZAKHON

Before I begin, let me state – understanding that there is no form of communication so perfect it cannot be misunderstood or distorted – that nobody sane wants a civil war. People die in civil wars.

Will Gov. Sununu Grow a Spine or Kiss the Ring

January 7, 2021January 7, 2021 Steve MacDonald

Game of Thrones pushed the phrase ‘ bend the knee‘ into the popular consciousness. It means to acquiesce to power to save your neck, even if just for the moment. Another is “kiss the ring.” Wiktionary defines this as “An allusion to a traditional manner of expressing obeisance to a bishop (especially the pope) or king.”

Lack of Standing Cuts Both Ways

January 7, 2021 Ian Underwood

As I’ve said before, the Supreme Court’s primary job is to preserve the illusion that it can do whatever it wants. Recently, it decided that the best way to do this would be to declare that the participants in an election — 19 out of 50 states — didn’t have standing to challenge irregularities in … Read more

January 7, 2021January 7, 2021 Steve MacDonald

This is interesting. This photo was taken at the rally yesterday. It’s a bit blurry, but we can see two individuals in hooded jackets, side by side. They have nearly identical objects protruding from their backpacks. They look like baseball bats.

“Mr. President, Cross That Rubicon” –

January 7, 2021

Posted in it’s entirety:

“Aside from the crushing socialism, the overweening global warmist religious fanaticism, the stench of tens of thousands of homeless insaniac drunkards and dopeheads shipped here from every other state, and the tidal wave of illegal immigrants from 20 other nations, there are a bare few advantages to living here in Calestine (which name is stolen shamelessly from yesterday’s comments).

Sucktion 230 … Accountability for Thee But Not for Me

January 7, 2021January 7, 2021

Sucktion 230 is all about accountability for thee but not for me. It is free speech battle… sorta. It’s not a battle for Leftist speech. It’s only a battle for conservative speech. There is actually no movement afoot to restrict the speech of Leftists. But, the President’s tweets almost always receive a flag or fact-check. … Read more

Notable Quote – “If two lawyers can just show up , grab a mic, and convince diehard Trump fans to…”

January 6, 2021 Skip

If some of you go to the link (below), you might get mad at me…but this part needs a reading (emphasis mostly mine) – The “Set up”: …You know what suburban voters do? They show up and vote. Year in, year out, presidential years, midterms, off-year elections, special elections, non-November local elections. They must rank … Read more

Let Me Explain in Detail Our Path Forward Before We Meet at the State House

January 6, 2021 Op-Ed

When you join us tomorrow at 11 a.m. in Concord at the State House to protest the governor’s no-longer State of Emergency at his inauguration, which is happening inside the State House around noon, we want you to know how important it is to continue to use the effective political channels that our Founders set up for us to fight back against the governor’s usurpation of power.

Do You Need or Want Anyone Automatically “Fact-Checking” What You Read?

January 6, 2021

How many people, not organizations, do you trust to determine the truth for you? Do you need or want anyone automatically “fact-checking” what you read? Does every free thought need to be fact-checked by a third party? Is this the pretext for censorship?

Quick Thought on Georgia: We Are Royally Screwed

January 6, 2021 Skip

Republicans won the quadfecta in New Hampshire – (Gov., Executive Council, NH Senate, NH House) on Nov 3rd, even as the Federal delegation was lost again. And that is how Georgia is looking.
