You know the story. For over three years, Joe Biden’s critics repeatedly pointed out what should have been obvious to anyone paying attention that the guy wasn’t mentally with it. However, despite evidence steadily piling up supporting that conclusion, the President’s supporters insisted he was fine. Even great! A sycophantic leftist press corps eagerly went … Read more
Vermonters are suffering economically, and the state’s Progressive party (led by Lieutenant Governor David Zuckerman) is sharing its plans to make it worse. The pattern that is becoming clear is that rich people exploit the poorest of Vermonters to take more and more money from working Vermonters – making them poorer and more likely to … Read more
A Vermont dairy family has been issued a notice by their town demanding that they obtain a building permit because they have more than two political yard signs (that support GOP candidates) displayed on their property. Rather than pay the $25 fee (plus 3% for credit cards) to comply, young newlyweds Sara and Ryan Bullis … Read more
Of the many unique Vermonters wishing to represent their district one name begs the question – who is VL Coffin? VL is short for Voranus Lothrop, named after Lieutenant VL Coffin, a volunteer in the Civil War from Maine.

Windsor County has long been a Democrat and Progressive stronghold. Its largest town, Hartford, has voted overwhelmingly blue (approximately 70%) since at least as long as they’ve used Dominion voting machines, maybe even longer. However a shift has been taking place of late, and one person who finds herself at the center of it is … Read more
Details are starting to emerge surrounding the apparent pedophile meet-up at a Vermont campground located outside of the state capitol in the small town of Plainfield, VT.

A weekend escape for “Minor Attracted Persons” (MAPs) in rural Vermont has attracted strident public criticism. The chosen location and theme for the three-day event – a wooded campground with hiking trails near a local pre-K through 12th-grade public school – has elevated an already controversial issue into closer scrutiny. Though MAP may soon be … Read more
Vermont’s highest court has ruled that citizens have no legal recourse if their children are administered an experimental vaccine against parental wishes by public school personnel unless they prove willful misconduct and their child suffers serious physical injury or death. This surreal desecration of parental consent was justified by deference to federal statutes governing vaccinations, … Read more
The Commission on the Future of Public Education in VT’s subcommittee on Finance Reform met on September 4th (going back a bit, but the Commission has not been too punctual about posting its meeting recordings). It was their first meeting so, in fairness, expectations for any real substance were low. Still, some initial observations are worth … Read more
I was recently interviewed by Michael Nevradakis of Children’s Health Defense. Michael asked me some very tough questions (that I provided to him beforehand!) about the Vermont Supreme Court’s recent Politella decision, which held that Vermont parents of a six-year-old boy had no legal rights when their son was administered an experimental COVID-19 vaccine despite … Read more
A key architect and proponent of the Unaffordable Heat Act, Rep. Laura Sibilia, recently penned a defense of the program.

The Vermont State Police today commented on intense local, state and online social media buzz about a MAP (Minor Attracted Persons) gathering reportedly scheduled to occur in Washington County beginning on Thursday, September 19.

Its description reads, “Are you a coach, educator, health or mental health provider, social worker, healer, or in … Read more
Governor Scott took the gloves off at his Thursday press conference, calling out the Democrat Supermajority not just over the sticker-shock cost estimates for their cherished Clean Heat Standard (Act 18), but also their lack of transparency and honesty over the past year and a half of the program’s development. Scott said, “The cost estimates … Read more
The big news last week regarding the Clean Heat Standard potential study results was the reveal that the program is likely to add somewhere between $1.78 and $4.03 per gallon to the cost of heating oil and kerosene and as much as $2.12 to a gallon of propane. But also of note is the somewhat … Read more
When Julie Moore, Secretary of Natural Resources, said the Clean Heat Standards “carbon credit” tax on home heating fuels could drive up costs by 70 cents per gallon, the advocates of the program shouted her down and said, “Wait for the official analysis done by the real experts, you know-nothing, political hack!” (I’m consolidating and … Read more
The Vermont Department of Health is still promoting the CDC’s childhood vaccination schedule, suggesting a COVID-19 shot for children as early as six months. Children were neither at risk nor a vector and effectively immune until we started jabbing them. It says pregnant moms should get one, too, absent comprehensive or accurate and complete informed … Read more
The University of New Hampshire released a poll (The Green Mountain State Poll) on how Vermonters feel about the economy, taxes, and the high cost of living.

Monday was the first day of school in Vermont, and this weekend, we celebrate Labor Day – two milestones at which point voters, so says conventional wisdom, start paying attention to politics.
