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

Quick Update On the Site Update

We ran into some issues with the initial launch of this iteration of The ‘Grok and had to do some tap dancing back and forth to fix them. I won’t bore you with details, but it wasn’t fun for me. We went live again at about 8:16 ET this evening. We seem to be stable … Read more

Is Jim Babcock Going To Try Stealing Signs Again?

We’ve covered a bunch of sign stealers over the years – almost back to the time when we started 18 years ago. After all, it comes around every year – hopefuls trying to exercise their Free Speech Rights in getting their message (“I’M RUNNING! VOTE FOR ME!”) out to the electorate. And every year, we … Read more

So, About that New Web Site of Yours …

The latest iteration of The ‘Grok went live when the Trump assassination attempt story broke, so there was a lot going on while we were working on getting this thing up and running.

The “Value Add” Rationale is Clobbering the Unions

When a law is necessary to keep an organization’s membership from leaving (e.g., a closed union shop that demands membership before someone can work there), it is ripe for competition. In this case, it was the same SCOTUS decision that made it possible for me NOT to have to join a union Janus v. AFSCME … Read more

A Lot of RTK Tax Supporters Support Kelly Ayotte

As endorsements are coming in for all candidates for all offices, like last night’s floodwaters, I want to call attention to some of Kelly Ayotte’s “problem endorsers.” No, I’m not talking big-time Deep State people, businesses, and organizations, but people that any respectable Nashua homegrown candidate for any office should shun.

Kuster and Pappas Protect Non-Citizen Voting “Rights”

Chip Roy’s Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (HR8281) does this crazy thing. It says what the federal law already says: Non-citizens cannot vote in US elections. They can’t. It’s illegal. But there’s no mechanism to ensure that. HR8281 says you must prove you are a citizen to register and vote. Provide proof. Neither of New Hampshire’s Dem House Critters voted for it.

‘Tis the (Election) Season

Politics in NH are interesting, as I’m sure anyone who is paying attention would agree. Hot topics, promises, and clever lies abound.

I’d be seriously slacking in my role as a Homeschool Advocate if I didn’t take the time to touch on the hot topic that has plagued our community for a number of years and become a front-and-center key platform push for politicians in our state.
