The big news that’s not news at all is that MSNBC and Rachel Madcow reported that in 2005 Donald Trump paid $38 million in taxes on $150 (152.7) Million in income. That’s 24% of his income lost to Uncle Sam.
Big whoop.

NH House: The public decline of Democrat Sherry Frost’s sanity
Yesterday, The Blaze posted another embarrassing moment in the New Hampshire Legislature thanks to Dover Democrat, Representative Sherry Frost. The woman is now becoming increasingly more insane in her rhetoric. Frost will attempt to claim it is only “hyperbole” but given her outrageous, inappropriate and unprofessional behavior since becoming a representative, that attempt should be met with contempt.
Michelle Obama’s Lunch Tyranny May Be Coming to an End
The School Nutrition Association (SNA) which represents 54,000 school cafeteria professionals see the Trump Presidency as an opportunity to roll back some of the overreaches of the Obama years.
[su_quote]SNA supports maintaining robust federal nutrition standards to ensure all students receive nutritious, well-balanced meals at school. However, some overly prescriptive rules have resulted in unintended consequences, including reduced student lunch participation, higher costs and food waste.[/su_quote]
Federal meddling in the form of S. 3307, the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, has been more like the healthy food goes in the trashcan and kids are still hungry Act.
Obamacare was always about the Alinsky Have Nots vs the Haves

“NO ONE wants to take your guns” is what I’m demsplained. But a gun registry is the first step!
I keep being told that no one wants to take my guns – no one from anywhere. Well, I keep seeing a whole lotta stuff from people who “slyly” wish to do exactly that in a more stealthy way (NH State Rep Katherine “the Hutt” Rogers is one of them – she is insistent that I am not of the caliber (heh!) of person to own this kind of inanimate object she claims that can leap off a table and kill a whole town) by the death of a thousand cuts. Helps them when they make each of those cuts costs a thousand bucks, too.
Well, here’s an outright, out of the closet, first stepper – a Democrat out of PA (emphasis mine):
PA Democrat Re-Launches Effort to Create Gun Registry
Since he first took office in 2001, Pennsylvania State Representative Angel Cruz has made it a point to advocate for gun control. But some say his latest efforts show how desperate the movement is to cram infringements down gun owners’ throats at the state level.
House Bill 610, also known as the Firearm Registration Act, aims to give the Pennsylvania State Police the right to maintain a registry of all guns and gun owners in a central database.
In part, the bill states:

Windham NH School Board Hijinks – Kimberly on Girard at Large this morning about Al Litizio (Jr.) and Dennis Senibaldi
“You know, you’d think these guys would have learned their lesson after the last time that they were exposed for how nasty they were. But of course, they haven’t. They can never be decent human beings” That’s Kimberly talks about Windham‘s own Al Litizio (Jr.) and Dennis Senibaldi about them trying to shaft a really good guy, Ken … Read more

Is Unwanted Cell Tower Near a Local Elementary School Secretly a Done Deal?
To make a long story short (at least for the moment), former Bedford New Hampshire Town Manager Steve Daly entered into an agreement with Crown Castle Towers to lease public property for the placement of a cell tower. Daly never had permission from the Town Council. The zoning board refused to approve the deal. Crown sued the town. A resident filed a civil suit. Daly resigned “for personal reasons.” Crown eventually halted their suit.
The tower was slated for 77 Chubbuck Road, at the town’s transfer station. Petitions were signed opposing it. The locals don’t want it there. Citizens are concerned about the proximity to the Riddle Brook Elementary School. And now that the lawsuit is over more than a few residents probably think the story ended there. It did not.

Voter Fraud – I keep hearing from Liberals that it doesn’t exist (until they do it)
Ayup: Liberals are always talking about no voter fraud at the ballot box. Problem is, is often happens much further upstream (remember ACORN getting busted on this ALL over the country?) (reformatted, emphasis mine):
OHIO: Liberal activist jailed after voter fraud guilty plea
A paid liberal activist from the battleground state of Ohio was sentenced to six months in jail after she pleaded guilty to 14 counts of voter fraud on Monday. Rebecca A. Hammonds was originally charged with 35 counts of “falsely registering people to vote and forging signatures on voter registration forms,” and admitted to 14 counts, Salem News reports. Hammonds was a paid canvasser for the Ohio Organizing Collaborative, a group pushing people to register to vote in Columbiana County.
“It was fraud. It was dozens of forms where people that were deceased or just forged flat out. They signed their name and it wasn’t even the voter, the wrong date of birth, wrong streets,” said Columbiana County Elections Director Adam Booth in mid-2016 when Hammonds originally plead not guilty, according to WFMJ. Booth said Hammonds was caught because his office “take the precautions and double check to make sure that all the information matches up, from their first name, middle name, last name, to all the identifiers.”
