MacDonald: An EPIC Takedown of the State GOP

If you missed last night’s Granite State Live, there have been some changes, but one thing remains the same. Keith Hanson continues to deliver epic takedowns and rants that melt the internet. Yesterday evening, Julian was talking about a long-term problem: getting “our side” to get off their ass and show up. I know, we … Read more

Vehicle inspection sticker

Cline: Outdated auto inspection laws appear more related to culture than cold

Every time legislators propose ending New Hampshire’s annual auto inspection mandate, opponents allege that inspections are common in Northern states because cold weather hazards (road salt, frost heaves) make them necessary. In fact, most cold-weather states, like most states overall, don’t require annual auto inspections. Mapping the states that require annual inspections reveals that culture … Read more

Chris Pappas fool

MacDonald: Chris Pappas Wants More of Your Money

Now that he is running for the US Senate, a position for which it is difficult to unseat even the most despicable liberal scold, Chris Pappas, has invited more scrutiny. As a member of Congress, he can and has done plenty of damage, but the size of the US House dilutes the potential harm. He’d … Read more

MacDonald: Legislature Sends Law to Gov. Desk Ending Sanctuary Cities

New Hampshire is the only state in the Northeast other than Maine that is NOT a Sanctuary State, but it did not strictly prohibit towns or cities from pretending they were. This amounted to local political pressure to dissuade peace officers from assisting federal immigration enforcement, particularly with detention retainers. In practice, this produces two … Read more

Vikram Mansharamani

Smith: Vikram 2028, Seriously?!

In his 11/19/21 speech to an angry crowd following that famous unfortunate Chuck Morse vote, Senator Giuda, who voted correctly, said, “money is the mother’s milk” (of campaigns).  We know that there are “haves” and “have-nots,” but it’s not just that dichotomy, I would say it’s more like a Punnett Square because there are those … Read more

NH Wood Flag

MacDonald: Gov. Signs Bill Prohibiting School Personnel from Transporting Minors for Medical Appointments Without Parental Consent.

Maybe. HB231, prohibits “school district personnel from transporting students to medical or mental health appointments, visits, or procedures without parental consent.” Governor Ayotte signed the bill into law, requiring school districts to adopt policies, so yes, it is law, but what exactly are the consequences? This bill requires school districts to create a policy prohibiting … Read more

Jason Sorens

Sorens: Why Reform Zoning

Julie Smith recently wrote a piece for Granite Grok about my white paper for AIER entitled “Unbundling Zoning.” She badly misinterpreted the paper, made false accusations, and even got the main thesis exactly backwards. Here’s the proof. Smith: “Sorens calls zoning useless, unjust, and irrational and explains why.” FALSE. These are the claims I’m responding … Read more

Hollis dunkin donuts

Smith: Hollis Dunkin Donuts

Hollis Dunkin Donuts is unlike other locations in many ways.  It’s in a repurposed building multiple times its age, it doesn’t have the usual bright orange and pink signs and it doesn’t have a drive-thru despite it being a former site of a bank with one. While I can’t speak intelligently to the finer details … Read more

Tara Reardon and mrs Soprano

Smith: Call Tara Reardon “Mrs Soprano”

Let’s get the “say something nice” part out of the way before the attack.  I met Community Loan Fund lobbyist Tara Reardon on 2/15/23 after a Senate Executive Departments committee hearing for a trailer park bill.  She supported what I said into the mic and followed me out into the hall and introduced herself when … Read more

Martha McLeod Grafton County

Dear Grafton County Commissioners & Delegates,

As you may or may not know, virtual, online, ZOOM Commissioners’ Meetings were “blacked-out,” “shut down,” canceled,” by “the Chairman of the Board,” Martha McLeod,  as of April 22, 2025 so that no Grafton County residents can see & listen to the meetings in real time.  This type of censorship is something that is done … Read more
