Of Oaths and Loyalty – The Dearth of Fidelity to Both in Politics; Belknap County Delegation as Example

August 3, 2022 Skip

So, WHO called the Delegation meeting yesterday? Was it legally done? Nope. And IMHO, County Attorney Andrew Livernois gave cover in a rambling Letter as so many had contacted him to see if the Delegation was operating legally. I have an email thread with him that I will be posting later. Hint: On quoting RSA … Read more

Would a Federal Law Legalizing Abortion Survive the Supreme Court?

August 2, 2022 Op-Ed

Leading Democrats have announced they want a federal statute overruling state laws that restrict abortion. In other words, they want Congress to legalize nearly unrestricted abortion nationwide. Obviously, such a law would intrude into an area of social policy traditionally left to the states.

Democrat Mayors Cry Uncle

August 2, 2022 Ray Cardello

Mayors Bowser of Washington D.C. and Adams of New York are looking as foolish as politicians can look. They are getting a small taste of what the Border States have been enduring for eighteen months, and that snippet is not sitting well.

Inflation, Recession, New Taxes. Thanks Joe

If a $500 Mill Religious Exemption Settlement is a Wake-Up Call to Employers, How About States Like Maine?

July 16, 2024August 1, 2022 Steve MacDonald

Maine passed a law abrogating religious exemptions for childhood immunizations. Passed before the Chinese Flu Plandemic, it became effective in 2021 and has since cut the number of exemption requests in half. We’ve posited that this is an unconstitutional violation, and now we may have some backup.

August 1, 2022 Op-Ed

Being pro-life, pro-second amendment, and a vaccine pro-informed consent the Democrats were uneasy with me being a Democrat. Now, Republicans hold the same question and unease; “What are you, and why are you with us?”. “You must be a FedPoser or a leftist agitator”! False!

Man Calls Cops On ATF Agent, Who Loses Tough-Guy Fed Act In A Hurry

August 1, 2022 Op-Ed

A lot of comments on social media are saying “this is exactly how you do it.” Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. We know that any interaction with the police can escalate quickly, and especially if they are called in for a “pretend” federal agent, as happens here.

Gunstock – Somebody Gave NH State Rep Harry Bean Really Bad Advice about a Delegation Emergency Meeting

August 1, 2022 Skip

UPDATE (and bumped from 8 am)! And an important one: Summary – Emergencies (like what has been called for Gunstock below) in 91:A ONLY APPLY TO TOWNS AND CITIES; not the “County Convention” (aka, “the Delegation”.

July 31, 2022 Op-Ed

We grew up with many myths. We had Jason and the Argonauts, the Medusa, Atlas, Hercules, and gods like Mercury and Wotan. But, following Schliemann’s discovery of Troy, when combined with more recent excavations, it appears that much of what Homer wrote about Troy has moved from myth to history.
