March 4, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Today during a hearing of House Special Committee on the Division for Children, Youth and Families (regarding DCYF), something interesting and (perhaps) wonderful occurred.

March 4, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Breaking – SCOTUS Rules 9-0: Colorado Can’t Remove Trump From The Ballot

March 4, 2024 Steve MacDonald

At least a few of the Several States, all run by political partisans exercising political will, attempted to keep a candidate for the office of President from appearing on an opposing (private) party primary ballot. The candidate, Donald Trump, asked the Supreme Court to review Colorado’s effort, and they have.

March 4, 2024 Ed Mosca

Is there no limit to Mikey Graham’s Trump-Derangement-Syndrome? Apparently NOT. Now (writing this on 3/2) Mikey is promoting a piece by a CLINTON bureaucrat (IRS no less) that rewrites history … portraying Ronald Reagan as a warmonger who supported open-borders:

Another week of comments, a school vacation week for many in New Hampshire, and yes – traffic dipped a bit with some folks traveling or doing more family stuff, but commenters will comment, and they did.

HB1002 is Treating “Government Transparency” the Way Democrats Treat The “Right to Self Defense”

March 4, 2024 Steve MacDonald

If you’ve missed it or are a glutton for punishment (as opposed to a gluten for punishment, which is what my spellchecker just tried to do to my pre-editing fat-fingered spelling of the former), HB1002 has gone around and come around after a valiant but failed effort to kill it on the floor of the NH House.

Fewer Students + Business as Usual = More Dollars

Well, Jay Eshelman and I have finally found something we can agree on, so it’s probably worth reproducing here instead of leaving it buried in the comments section of his recent post. Here it is, in response to someone claiming that if we could just get 25% of kids to leave public schools, the system would collapse.

We’re Going to Publish Weekly NH House Republican Attendance Reports!

March 3, 2024 Steve MacDonald

We’ve had a handful of very relevant content in recent days about the troubles in the New Hampshire House. The slip Republican majority gets wins in the morning only to lose later because Democrats keep score better and are more patient and focused on their agenda.

DEI … DIEs at the University of Florida

March 3, 2024 Steve MacDonald

When Ohio banned DEI programs at universities from taking public money, Kent State merged its Diversity Equity and Inclusion offices with Human Resources and (ironically) renamed it the Division of People Culture and Belonging. Division, indeed.

March 3, 2024 Ian Underwood

For years, House Ways and Means Chairman Charlie Rangel (D-NY) didn’t pay taxes on significant parts of his income. When the IRS discovered this, it allowed him to pay the missing taxes without any of the normal penalties.

On Local School District’s Strategic Plan: Trash It and Start Over

March 3, 2024 Ann Marie Banfield

After reviewing the new Strategic Plan for Governor Wentworth Regional School District, I would suggest trashing it and starting over. While it sounded promising with their placement of academic achievement as their top priority, nothing in this document shows the community how that will be accomplished.

Sent by a reader, this radio segment is something you should check out and, if you agree, add to your quiver of rhetorical/active arrows. Patrick Madrid is talking to a mother who is trying to defend her daughter from the groomers and queer agenda in her local public school.

Warner: Hartford Has An Activist Problem – Now They Know About it

Martin Luther King Jr. famously said:

“Vanity asks the question, ‘Is it popular?’

Expediency asks the question, ‘Is it politic?’

Cowardice asks the question, ‘Is it safe?’

But conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’

BREAKING … Biden Wins Arizona

March 3, 2024 Ed Mosca

The polls! The polls! The polls! We’re winning! We’re winning! We’re winning! So say those who persist in living in that alternative reality that the rigging of the 2020 election was just a one off. We are NOT winning. We are losing.

The Only Key “Voting Bloc” We Need Joe Biden to Lose In 2024 Is This One

March 3, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Western Journal has done an excellent job of adding some balance to the business of news and media, but I laughed out loud when I read this headline: “Biden Has All But Lost His Advantage in Key Voting Bloc that Drove 2020 Win, Devastating Poll Shows.”

What Happened to True Liberalism?

March 3, 2024 Op-Ed

Unfortunately, liberals have become mostly wacko. That is why ‘Liberal’ has become a word with negative connotations. The extreme religious right wing has always been the core of right-wing wackos. The transformation of liberals into “Karens” has been the failure of the mainstream liberals to maintain a core of self-respecting people who, in general, just want to help people.

Night Cap: It looks like DC in NH – An End to Voting Rights, Civil Rights …
