NewsGuard: Surrogate the Feds Pay to Keep Watch on the Internet and Be a Judge of the Truth
In May 2021, L. Gordon Crovitz, a media executive turned start-up investor, pitched Twitter executives on a powerful censorship tool. In an exchange that came to light in the “Twitter Files” revelations about media censorship, Crovitz, former publisher of the Wall Street Journal, touted his product, NewsGuard, as a “Vaccine Against Misinformation.”
New Hampshire’s Attorney General Asks the State Supreme Court to Sanction Thought Crime
The New Hampshire Attorney General’s office and this is just a guess, appears to be using the recent rise in left-wing anti-semitism to push for a court ruling that allows the State to use civil rights law to silence speech it decides at any given moment is offensive.
Moving In and Moving Out
Two weeks ago, the US Census Bureau released data on where Americans are moving from and moving to. The states with the biggest moves are people leaving California (one million) and New York (half a million). Most Californians went to Texas, Arizona, Florida, and Washington State. Most New Yorkers went to Florida, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
Night Cap: Can You Win By Playing Both Sides
John F. Kennedy had a famous saying, “The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in a time of crisis, remain neutral.” I have never been a fan of people who choose to sit on the fence, and the inability to pick a side is a sign of weakness and poor leadership.
A Post Veteran’s Day Observation from a Vietnam Vet
After well over fifty Memorial/Veterans Day observances, I finally figured out the “why” of omitting even the slightest reference to our Korean or Vietnam veterans during our patriotic observations on Veterans Day and Memorial Day.
Watch: A Very Special Message From ‘President Joe Biden’ (snicker)
Comedian and Ventriloquist Jeff Dunham lucked out in one respect. The guy who currently occupies the Oval Office looks a lot like one of his oldest and most popular characters. He has not let the similarity (or dare I say, crisis) go to waste, using Walter to make sport of Biden, the process, all of it.
Why Did Gordon MacDonald Not Recuse Himself?
The New Hampshire Supreme Court has just heard the appeal of Rep. Jon Stone regarding his request to keep private the records of police misconduct when he was a police officer. Gordon MacDonald and Barbara Hantz Marconi heard the oral arguments.
To Pay for Administering the New Carbon Tax on Home Heating Fuels They’ll Need a New Excise Tax on Home Heating Fuels!
The Public Utilities Commission (PUC), which is charged under the Clean Heat Standard (Act 18/S.5) with operating the “carbon credit” system created by the law, is now soliciting ideas for how to fund said operation.
A Killer Worse Than COVID
On August 22, the DHHS announced its allocation of an additional $1.4 billion toward the development of new Covid treatments and vaccines. If good health is their purpose, that’s like pouring gasoline on a fire.
Quit Your Bitching and Own It, and Then Do Something Different
American Exceptionalism isn’t or shouldn’t be the idea that because we are American, we are better. It is that, in America, we have left the door open to the opportunity to be exceptional, to be better, no matter what that means to any individual.
The TSA Is Still Crazy after All These Years
The TSA has been promising to end its boneheaded ways for more than 20 years. Flying out of Dallas International Airport last week, I ruefully recognized that all TSA reform promises are malarkey.
Trump Promises to Block Funding to any School that Imposes Mask or Vaccine Mandates
Last weekend, I took a trip to Claremont, New Hampshire, for the Trump Rally. He was one of three candidates I’d not yet heard this cycle. The others were Haley and Scott. Scott dropped out, so I won’t see him, but I caught up with Trump: long drive, sunny day (if only about 39 deg.), and some interesting observations.
Ted, Taiwan, and Sports
Remember Ted Kennedy? The Massachusetts senator was a progressive icon—a liberal lion who endured the tragic killings of his three older brothers, all in their respective primes.

Bananas: VT Sex-Work Legislators Put Money Where Mouths Are
A recent decision by Planned Parenthood New England to shut down four of its Vermont clinics has many lawmakers in Montpelier ready to hop into the sack to save them.
Another NH Trans Rights Activist Loses His Lobbying Job After Behaving Badly
In May, Dominic Osmund, a paid lobbyist for 350NH, harassed me as I was handing out flyers in the NH State House to state reps, asking them to support a parental rights bill.
57 Attacks On Our Military, 9 Hostages, And We Give Iran $10 Billion
We have completely lost our minds and moral compass. When I say we, I don’t mean the collective we. I mean the Biden Government “We.” Weeks ago, Biden freed $6 Billion of Iran’s assets. Biden, Blinken, KJP, and the rest of the sordid cast have repeated ad nauseam that Qatar was in control of the funds and it could only be released for humanitarian purposes.
Israel: Ongoing Links, Memes, and Commentary
This is an attempt to “break out” memes, links, and my commentary about the situation in Israel / the Middle East so as to not overload the standard meme posts that I do. My last “normal” meme post. In these Israel-related posts I don’t just have memes as such, but lots of informative links as well as hopefully-insightful commentary.
