The “social justice” movement that’s taken the nation by storm since last summer has descended as leftists employ absurd lies to impose glaring injustices. Perhaps the biggest of these lies being spread by leftist lawmakers is that Vermonters killed off all the Native Americans and must now pay economic penance.
Striving to Preserve Your Culture against False Charges of Racism
In an ongoing cultural controversy in Vermont, a former House member named Kiah Morris has launched a video attacking Vermonters and their culture as racist. Ms. Morris has employed the empty trope that Vermonters who wish to preserve their traditional culture employ “political tactics [that] are historically consistent in the acceleration of increased discrimination, bias, and hate crimes … Read more
Letter to the Editor in Rebuttal of “Anonymous”
Recently, Granite Grok published an opinion piece entitled “Something Smells Like Rotten Fish.” I agree: the rotten fish is the anonymous author. My name is David Goethel. I am a semi-retired commercial fisherman with over fifty-five years’ experience and the author of the book Endangered Species, which describes my life as a small boat fisherman … Read more
Palestinian ‘Student’ Compares Being Shot in Burlington, Vermont to Being Shot at in Gaza
The New York Times (NYT) has a breathless piece by a Palestinian “shooting victim.” Hisham Awartani survived a gunshot wound he received in Burlington, Vermont, so why not compare that to getting shot at in Gaza?
A Truckload of Manure
The rhetoric surrounding the passage of the Clean Heat Carbon Tax (Act 18) was full of talk about “social justice,” a “just transition,” “engaging traditionally marginalized communities,” and “moving at the speed of trust.” Yeah, well, shocker, that was a truckload of manure!
Massachusetts Houses Children and Pedophiles Together … Again!
If you need a poster child for the incompetence of a bloated government, Massachusetts would have to be at the top of any list of candidates. Yes, Hawaii and California are bad, but they lack the tenure of the Bay State. Once the cradle of liberty, it has long since devolved into an aged ineptitude its younger upstarts can’t quite match.
The Tale Of Two Chiefs
Two members of the Kansas City Chiefs addressed college graduating classes this week and showed how divided we are as a country and how upside-down we have become. Travis Kelce and Harrison Butker could not be more diametrically opposed in their messages.
Howard Dean vs. Phil Scott? Yes, Please!
Howard Dean made news the other day when he reminded Vermonters he was still alive. The dude is bumping up against the actuarial tables at 76, after all, and anyone born the last year Dean held public office is now of legal age to drink, which would come in handy if the increasingly radicalized Leftist activist returned to power.
Daniel Goldman Is A Cocker Spaniel
Daniel Goldman is a first-term congressman from New York. An Ivy League education from Yale and a decade on the staff as Assistant United States Attorney in the Southern District of New York should have given him the knowledge and backbone to be a pit bull in Congress, but the way that he gets schooled by his colleagues from the other side of the aisle and from witnesses he is questioning, he is far from a pit bull.
Elections Have Consequences: Democrats Say The Dumbest Things (Two-Fer)
“Democrats say the Dumbest things,” and “Democrats = Dumb.”
Government Overcriminalization Catches Unwary Americans
A strange trend has emerged in the law – strange and dangerous. While some crimes like robbery, shoplifting, and drug dealing – things that require criminal intent – have been decriminalized in many areas, the already quite large body of federal regulation has grown under President Joe Biden, putting unsuspecting citizens who don’t intentionally or knowingly break the law increasingly at risk for prosecution.
Ross Berry
Knowing how much Ed Mosca loves Rooss Berry, I thought I would share with you the following recounting of events from a member of the House of why Berry is no longer a state representative:
The Conservative Hippie
Many, many years ago, I was working 50 to 70 hours a week, keeping track of politics, contacting legislators, e-mailing testimony to Concord, and writing two columns in The Exeter-NewsLetter. There were nights I was up until midnight to meet deadlines. Then I realized, being in Exeter, I was in a small minority fighting a giant.
Night Cap: Employee Beware! – The Hackers Have Got To Be Singing “Pennies From Heaven”!
Whether you know it or not, it is becoming common for Employers to keep ALL of your most important identifying information in the cloud! That’s right—not just your name, address, email, and phone number but also your birth date and social security number.
The New England Take: School Choice Goes Beyond New Hampshire but How Does It Compare?
Ben DeGrow, Senior Policy Director for Education Choice at ExcelinEd, swats down complaints from Democrats running for Governor in New Hampshire regarding education choice and how other states compare to our EFA program.
In Biden’s America Foreign Squatters Have More Rights Than Home Owners
National media is abuzz with surreal tales of US citizens ejected from or arrested while trying to reclaim their own homes from criminal squatters. One viral TikTok video features a Venezuelan thug named Leonel Morino exhorting his fellow hoodlums to seize homes as squatting escalates in Atlanta, New York City, Los Angeles, and other major cities.
Don’t Saudi Arabia The Gulf of Maine! [Update – Meetings, Press Conference in Response]
The NH commission on offshore wind meeting, before the federal BOEM takes over our Gulf of Maine, was inexplicably canceled when its chair, Sen. Watters, got wind, pun intended, that fishermen and concerned citizens would show up to voice their concerns.
Hillary Speaks the Truth?
Believe it or not, readers, Hillary’s mouth has actually spoken the truth to us, the American people (I bet that has a bitter taste for her?). According to Hillary pro Palestinian protestors here on American collage campuses and streets are ignorant of the history between Israel and Islam.
Biden Demands Debates, Are You Kidding
I am not convinced these debates will happen, but how can Joe Biden demand debates with Trump when he can not even put two sentences together? Does Joe understand there will be no teleprompter unless CNN expands on its cheating practices of the past? Most people forget the controversy when CNN got the questions for the debate to the Clinton team before the debate with Trump.
