On August 4th, I stood before Nashua’s Personnel and Administrative Affairs Committee to comment on a proposed ordinance that would conditionally ban signs, banners, and flags in the Aldermanic Chamber. I came with three 8.5” x 11” paper signs to test whether the City’s rule would be enforced fairly, or selectively. The signs were silent. … Read more
Delusions of grandeur are high on the diagnostic checklist for Narcissism. Just look at the DSM-3-R or any other authority on such matters. Former Rep Ming has shown similar behaviors during last year’s campaign season, such as claiming to be the first Asian rep when it simply wasn’t true. Now he’s outdone himself in his … Read more
This isn’t a fluff piece about menacing mutts—it’s a demand for justice. When dangerous dogs hurt people, it’s not a neighborly dog problem—it’s a community safety issue ripe for the New Hampshire Legislature to own up to. 1. Current Law Doesn’t Cut It: Civil Only? Not Enough Under RSA 466:19, New Hampshire imposes strict civil liability … Read more
Not so many years ago, it was a natural progression to graduate from high school, enter the military or college, get married, buy a house, have children, and roll the dice that all worked out.

Illegal Alien Drivers’ Licenses No Good in New Hampshire Kelly Ayotte just made it crystal clear: if you’re in this country illegally and holding one of those feel-good, law-dodging licenses from Vermont or California, you better keep on driving, right out of New Hampshire.

If you thought New Hampshire politics couldn’t get any messier, buckle up, because the Hantz Marconi case is proving that the state’s so-called “justice” system is less Lady Justice and more Jerry Springer. We’ve got a sitting Supreme Court justice on felony indictment, her husband in his own legal quagmire, the former Governor, the Chief … Read more
The elites didn’t realize that this is what they voted for? In the year 1 BC (Before COVID), circa 2019, there was unending amusement to be found. Schadenfreude, to be more specific. Decades of Democrat rule in Los Angeles had finally managed to spill over into the nicer neighborhoods. Angry homeless addicts pushed out of the … Read more

It is not just incompetence or confusion, but the deliberate *channeling of power, privilege, and money* toward insiders while the rest of us foot the bill and fight over scraps. Whether it’s Claremont’s local swamp or the DNC’s national machine, the pattern is the same. You want to clean it up? You start by pulling … Read more
Southern Border states get the bulk of the news stories about illegal entrants, drugs, and human trafficking, but in late 2023 to early 2024, Northern Border states began to steal some of the spotlight. The Biden Cartel and others were using the distractions in the south to take advantage of opportunities in the north. The … Read more
This week is all about wind, and how the Trump Administration is protecting public land onshore and offshore from wasteful “energy” projects that underutilize the resource (land), under-deliver, harm wildlife, and compromise America’s needs, with some special attention on the Gulf of Maine. Here is the offshore wind image I intended to put into the … Read more
How a City Government Lost Its Mind, Its Grip, and Your Trust Let’s not sugar-coat it, folks: the Claremont city government couldn’t manage a lemonade stand, let alone a tax incentive program like RSA 79-E. What’s happening in this city is beyond negligence—it’s bureaucratic malpractice wrapped in cluelessness and tied with a bow of smug, … Read more
Some readers are already familiar with my most recent article, “The Future of Nashua’s Library,” which highlights a public comment opportunity on August 6. Additionally, there are two other events worth noting: the first is on Monday night, August 4. It’s called “Women Run” and features three public servant panelists. Shewanda Daniels Williams (SDW) was … Read more
We’ve got an expert on the latest Iran Middle East nonsense (yeah, that still), plus some good news (maybe) about international trade, China, and the US Economy. The Citizen DOGE guys are also back to deliver an update on local efforts to make local government more efficient and transparent Speakers’ opinions are their own and … Read more
A group of “protesters” appeared in front of the New Hampshire State House yesterday. Red shirts, black pants, swastika flags, faces covered. You’d expect them to be from NSC-131, the local white supremacy group, and maybe they are, but we’ve got questions. The affiliation of the marchers was not immediately clear Saturday afternoon. Hate groups … Read more
We lost Augusta over the weekend. She was a great encouragement and supporter of what we do here as well as the efforts of so many around New Hampshire. Augusta always made me feel welcome, special, and essential, and she was generous beyond understanding to so many people and causes in New Hampshire and beyond. … Read more
The Global Warming Solutions Act (GWSA) contains a provision that gives standing to anyone who wants to sue the state, at taxpayers’ expense, if we fail to meet that law’s unrealistic, unattainable greenhouse gas reduction mandates. It’s known as the “private right of action” clause. The first case brought under the private right of action … Read more
