Massachusetts has a statewide mask mandate in public places. Salem, New Hampshire, tried to impose one but failed. Nashua, whose city government is a lot more like Massachusetts (and wants to be Massachusetts), passed one like s**t through a goose.
Republicans in Virginia Swarm Polls to Kick Local Democrats out of Office
The Staunton Virginia City Council lost three seats to Republicans (and held a fourth) despite record Democrat turnout for a local race. But Republicans, motivated by something – gee, I can’t imagine what – got more voters to the polls and now controls the Council.
Gretchen Whitmer’s Michigan: Gay Swingers Sex Club is an ‘Essential’ Business
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has seen her name recognition soar in the COVID-Era. This is something that would typically be good for a politician. There is, after all, no such thing as bad press – unless you’re Gretchen Whitmer. And the ‘press’ just keeps on coming.
Less than half of Americans know the true meaning behind Memorial Day
Sad, really sad. Saw this at Instapundit: I DON’T KNOW WHAT THEY TEACH IN PUBLIC SCHOOL. I KNOW IT’S NOT ANYTHING WORTH KNOWING: Most Americans have no clue why we celebrate Memorial Day. Going to the link (reformatted, emphasis mine): Less than half of Americans know the true meaning behind Memorial Day, according to a new … Read more
Democrat Clerk Charged With Altering Nearly 200 Mail-In Ballots
This is a story from last year but in the current context more relevant than ever. By which I mean, everyone (on the left) is gaga over vote-by-mail. That thing which even Jimmy Carter agrees is the best hope for vote fraud if you’re interested in committing it.
It all depends on your mindset, I guess
It really does come down to that – what is your background and what your “hammer” looks like:
Down on the Plantation
Was Biden’s gaffe of the week a down on the plantation threat? This week we heard Uncle Joe Biden’s comment, “… You ain’t black if you’re not votin’ fer me…” Was this a reflection of more than Biden personally? Was this another forgivable Bidenism or was it something else?
Nashua Anti-Mask Mandate Protest: Fewer Masks. More Hugs.
On short notice, about 50 people gathered in the plaza in front of Nashua City Hall to protest the ordinance passed 9-3 by the Nashua Board of Aldermen that requires masks to be worn in all businesses in the city to slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
Data Point – CDC estimate of COVID-19 / Coronavirus Fatality Rate
But that’s not even the most important part of their latest estimates. It’s the CDC’s new “best estimate” for the case fatality rate amongst symptomatic patients.But, before I got to that, I should note that back in March, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated a 3.4 percent fatality rate and Dr. Anthony Fauci estimated that the fatality rate of … Read more
Notable Quote – Dr. Don Boudreaux
Freedom of exchange and production within a regime of private property rights and freedom of contract harnesses self-interest to the public good. Admiration and endorsement of free markets is not – contrary to much uninformed commentary – admiration and endorsement of greed or materialism. It is, instead, the reflection of an acceptance of the reality … Read more
Palate Cleanser – because who hasn’t strapped a grenade to a propane tank before, right?
Yes, a bit nuts, these two. Sauntering about with chips in a bag… Wonder what the C-level staff at AmeriGas thought about how their products is being used. Hey, does doing this contribute to Global Warming hysteria??? (H/T: Caveman Circus)
Democrats are More Likely to Snitch on Their Neighbors Than Republicans
If you are looking for one of those water-is-wet, sky-is-blue comparisons, these survey results are for you. Rasmussen asked if you would report your neighbors for holding social gatherings in violation of coronavirus emergency orders.
St. Anselm prof: It’s Cruel to Stop Men from Competing in Women’s Sports
St. Anselm College professor Loretta Brady submitted testimony in opposition to both HB1251, the NH House Save Women’s Sports bill, and SB480, the NH Senate Save Women’s Sports bill. Both bills aim to ban the participation of biological males in female-designated public school sports in New Hampshire.
Does this mean that Zandra Rice-Hawkins is gonna call me a misogynist again (and again and again)? – Part 2
Yes, the Executive Director of out-of-state-financed Granite State Progress and Concord City Councilor (what a scary thought from a Liberty standpoint of those two positions co-joined at the ankles) Zandra Rice-Hawkins has oft not been enthralled with GraniteGrok. This won’t help as it is strictly politically incorrect – I can see the steam coming out … Read more
Prof. Says, Zoom Meetings Are Loaded with Unconscious Bias and Micro-Aggressions?
When you let mentally insane individuals create a curriculum for the mentally insane, you get experts in this. Michigan State Professor Warns of “Unconscious Bias” and “Microaggressions” in Virtual Meetings. Did anyone tell the professor that pointing out unconscious Bias is based?
What if We Choose Socialism?
What if we choose socialism? What should we expect? Does Marxism have merit? Socialism as an economic system does not work. With that said, it might be the most attractive political ideology ever.
Nashua Mask Edict: A Tyranny Imposed For The “Good” Of Its Victims
Recently, the CDC issued a mask recommendation. They’ve been wrong about many things regarding COVID so far, but I’ll credit them for continuing to try. I’ll take their advice under advisement.
Dear Governor Sununu – ENOUGH ALREADY
I understand NH’s governor was put into a position he didn’t ask to be put into. He was essentially between a rock and a hard place. Governor Sununu, like everyone else, was using the wildly inaccurate models pushed by the CDC and the feds to make decisions. I get it. There was no other information … Read more
Nashua’s Politicians are Using the Coronavirus to Advance their Own Political Agendas
Everyone knows that the COVID-19 pandemic has changed our lives, at least temporarily. This includes how we, the public, participate in local politics. With the pandemic-induced changes to how local politics works, I am a little concerned about the health of public participation during these unusual times.
Democrat Challenge to NH Voting Requirement Collapses as Dartmouth Students Drop Lawsuit
New Hampshire Democrats have been telling anyone that will listen that Republicans are suppressing student votes. That was always a lie, as we’ve explained here as recently as this morning, but they took their latest tirade to court anyway and lost. Or should I say, had to walk away?
