Just Voting Isn’t Enough

Back in the days of “Alderman Jan,” when I was still on FB and Nashua had zero representation in any legislative body, Beth Scaer authored a survey in one of the local groups, either Nashua Politics or Nashua Scoop.  It was a multiple-choice question, and it asked something like this: So you don’t like your … Read more

Mr. Mayor, Return our Stolen Property

We had property stolen from us in Nashua. It was a property we paid for with our tax dollars, which belonged to us. It was public property, where the money going in and out of it was to be accountable to citizens.  We purchased the property in 2018 for just over $2 million. The Mayor … Read more

Nashua’s Misuse of Bond Money

Many Nashua citizens have lost confidence in our city officials’ ability to handle FUNDING complex municipal projects transparently.  One recent project even questioned whether the city has complied with NH State laws.  This project was the Performing Arts Center (PAC). The result has been a loss of confidence in City Hall and a more costly new Arts … Read more

Nashua Sued in Federal Court for Viewpoint Discrimination

Regular readers will know that the Donchess regime in Nashua is very selective about the flags it allows on the citizen’s pole—almost, dare I say, partisan in its rejection. Most recently, Stephen and Beth Scaer (who both write for GraniteGrok) asked the city to fly the de-trans flag. It was rejected, and an appeal to … Read more

Attention, District 12 Voters: Rep. Ming is a Liar

Way back when Rep. Ben Ming first took possession of Sue Homola’s seat in the NH House, he wasted no time in deploying woke identity politics.  When he bragged in a tweet that he’s the first Asian to have a seat in the House, I replied that I voted for who would have been the … Read more

“One Nation Under Blackmail”

Greed and Fear was published in early 2018. The author, Derek Galanis, an Uber insider into the criminal underbelly of “underground financiers” and fraudsters dating back to the mid-1970s, states that his book is “all true.” Essentially, it is his plea deal allocation before sentencing to federal prison. Has Congress deposed him? We want to … Read more

Nashua’s Performing Arts Center and the New Market Tax Credit Scheme

New Hampshire’s Mascoma Bank is the hub for distributing the Federal Government’s New Market Tax Credit money, designed to provide investor tax credits for projects developed in low-income neighborhoods that improve the economic conditions of those living in hardship. Typical project developments include food, health, and education businesses. Mascoma Bank allocated NMTC funding for Nashua’s … Read more

The Secrecy of Nashua’s Economic Development Office

In 2022, I filed the Right to Know Lawsuit in Nashua Superior Court with claims against Nashua’s Economic Development office. The lawsuit primarily concerned the lack of notice of public meetings and posting minutes and records involving economic development projects.  Citizens (including myself) were frustrated by the inability to locate, access, and obtain records and … Read more

An Artsy Donchess Dodge

Mayor Donchess has no interest in providing fact-based answers to citizens. He is all too comfortable misrepresenting information to the public, particularly when questioned. In the first Mayoral Debate last year against Mike Soucy, when questioned about the $7,108,850 Loan the City gave to NPAC Corp., a private corporation, the Mayor stated that no loan … Read more

Nashua’s Disregard for the Law

Nashua Attorneys take orders from the Mayor, but when those orders violate the constitution, state statutes, or City laws, shouldn’t the Attorneys make a hard stop and comply with the law? Not in Nashua. The Budget Review Committee (BRC) holds public meetings starting in May to review each department’s budget. In June, the Board of … Read more

Will Rosenwald Call Out Sonia Prince’s Antisemitism?

Don’t hold your breath waiting for an answer to the question in the title.  But before we get to that question, let’s first revisit ‘a something’ from four years ago that’s related.  Monica Cannon Grant (MCG) insulted Rayla Campbell for having a white husband. If you’re unfamiliar with either of them, MCG is an unhinged … Read more

If There is No Fraud, Let us See the Emails

If any Nashua resident feels that the city is transparent, try obtaining the redacted New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) emails that describe the cryptic scheme that resulted in the Performing Arts Center deal. The City does not want residents to see what was done behind closed doors. The Court just denied my Petition for an … Read more

Blame Mayor Donchess and his Board of Aldermen

Every Nashua resident better start saving some extra money to pay for the 7.2% increase in property taxes. Mayor Donchess is stating that they only went up 3.7% when in fact that is a bold-faced lie. Property taxes will be going up 7.29% in December 2024. Residents do not have to believe me, just look at the current budget and compare it to FY2024 Budget.
