Dan Crenshaw May Be the New Republican “YouTube” Star

During Chris Christie’s first term as governor his recorded conversations with voters, union reps, any manner of constituent became known as Chris Christie porn. The way he questioned the union and establishment status quo in New Jersey Town Hall meetings was thrilling to watch. And he’s an establishment Republican sort of guy. Since then Trey Gowdy … Read more

Are New Hampshire Democrats Backing Away From Promised Tax Hikes?

All year long New Hampshire Democrats have been whining about how cutting New Hampshire’s business taxes was a hand out to the rich. Corporate bailouts. The standard socialist-Democrat class warfare rhetoric. Back in the real world, these tax cuts have produced record job growth, wage growth, and record labor force participation. Regular folk are working and earning … Read more

Broward County Election Supervisor Brenda Snipes Resigns

The now infamous Brenda Snipes, the Elections supervisor for Broward County Florida, has resigned. Don’t worry, it has nothing to do with how she conducts elections or recounts. She says she wants to spend more time with her family. Oh, and racism. Related: Florida Dem Party Conspired in Advance to Use Forged Ballots in Anticipated Recount A … Read more

It sounds like NH’s “Social Studies” is about to get “SJW watered down” again

Used to be called History and separately, civics. How did we get here from back then and how is American government supposed to be organized and run?  Basic issues and basic knowledgebases for any American citizen.  Sadly, our government schools seem to be a poor job of both – after all, ask a young adult the same question we require of LEGAL immigrants wishing to become naturalized Citizens and be prepared for a very dismal experience.  So when I saw this (emphasis mine, reformatted):

NH in process of revamping social studies curriculum

EXETER — The state of New Hampshire’s educational standards for social studies has not been updated since 2006 but with a review from the Department of Education underway, local school administrators and community leaders are beginning to line up to help shape its process.

I went “It’s really gonna get addressed!  Yay!”. Then I went back and reread that “community leaders” bit again. Sorry I did that….sigh….

NH Secretary of State – Dems are proving that if you cross them, they will destroy you.

“It’s not the people who vote that count, it’s the people who count the votes.”

-Joseph Stalin (apocryphally)

December fifth is another election here in NH but to one in which none of us “regular” people get to cast a vote: the important Secretary of State.  Important office – it is responsible for not only the business side of the State (company formations, reporting forms, and the like) as well as the election side (thus, the quote above). In addition, it has been Bill Gardner that has ensured that the NH First In The Nation Primary has stayed exactly that. However, it is that middle part, about elections, that is of most concern here at this time. However, this is an election that is the sole prerogative of our State Legislators – both the NH House Representatives and the NH State Senators.  They, and they alone, vote on the candidates.  This year, for the first time in a long time, there is a rival to Bill Gardner – a craven, self-serving Democrat Colin Van Ostern who decided that this was prime time to go full Political Opportunist and had $250K to spend campaigning for the office.

No one, except Van Ostern,  has faulted Bill Gardner on anything that he has done on the job (in fact, even Ray Buckley, NH Dem Chair, has praised him in the past on his FITN ceaseless work UNTIL he transgressed two Major Pillars of the NH Democrat Party:

Rethinking Fairness in Education

Below is a picture of the current educational system. We put kids in school for about 1000 hours per year, for 12 years, and see what happens. At the end of that time, some may be taking college-level courses. Others may still be unable to read.

How About a Sanctuary City for Gun Rights?

The next great Supreme Court case on Gun rights may be brewing in an unusual place. The police chief in the city of Republic, Washington has stepped up to announce that recent unconstitutional laws passed by Washington State voters will not apply in his city as long as he’s the Chief.

It isn’t just about the marijuana tax revenue Democrats desire…

As Steve posted, the reason why the Democrats decided to go all out on legalizing marijuana was not that they treasure Liberty (they don’t) but that they want YOUR money in their Treasury.  It’s one of the reasons I’m against legalization and against casinos here in NH: both do nothing more than act as an expensive facade for bigger, more expensive government leading to more boondoggles and intrusiveness.

But the other reason? They’re beaming that they’ll achieve yet another Democrat Agenda item at the same! Question E…

Democrat Congressman: Sell your guns to the Federal Government or we’ll nuke you

So, NEVER tell me again that the Democrat / Socialists / Progressives are saying “Nobody is saying they want to take your guns away”!  From back in May and then again in November, this from anti-Second Amendment US Congressman Eric Swallwell (D-CA, San Francisco) started what most of us really know – civilian disarmament IS on the Democrat agenda:

Ban assault weapons, buy them back, go after resisters: Ex-prosecutor in Congress

…Instead, we should ban possession of military-style semiautomatic assault weapons, we should buy back such weapons from all who choose to abide by the law, and we should criminally prosecute any who choose to defy it by keeping their weapons. Our courts haven’t found a constitutional right to have assault weapons, anyway. When the Supreme Court held in 2008 that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm, Justice Antonin Scalia wrote that this right “is not unlimited” and is “not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose.”
