OPINION: In Defense of National Borders

February 27, 2026 Wanjiru Njoya

In his essay on “Right Wing Populism” Murray Rothbard proposed to build a political coalition to overcome one of the main obstacles faced by liberty movements at election time, namely, the problem that “the numbers simply weren’t there.” Building a popular coalition would address the numbers problem by uniting those who share political goals in common, even … Read more

Lesson From A King

June 5, 2023 Steve Earle

Democrats, the Party of the disadvantaged? When did that happen – if ever? I look at our nation now and fail to see any changes other than the messages of that Party. They claim Republicans are anti-minority and they are the champions of the underclass. Let’s consider. What have the Democrats done for minorities when … Read more

Does “New Hampshire” or “America” Actually Mean Anything to Democrats?

July 27, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The Left’s southern border policy looks increasingly like the New Hampshire Democrat position on out-of-state voting. If you happen to find your way here, you are one of us!

SB3 Won’t “Suppress” Legal Votes If You Are a Legal Voter , Duh.

September 26, 2018August 31, 2018 Steve MacDonald

The No Borders folks are at it again. No, not the southern border, the New Hampshire border. All the way around. The Democrats erased it a few years ago as a GOTV strategy. This year the legislature passed SB3 to try and pencil the state border back in. Get back a sliver of that state sovereignty thingamajig. But the no borders crowd aren’t having it, and they’ll say anything to stop it.

Why ‘Borders’ Matter

September 26, 2018July 30, 2018 Steve MacDonald

The elites, the ruling class as Angelo Codevilla called them, lost when the peoples of the several states chose Mr. Trump to be their next President.

Their political machine which includes most of the media has been out to dislodge him ever since. Its more radical elements have ramped up the intimidation and violence.

This has heightened the average American’s awareness of a battle they entered when they stepped away from the failed institution of the expanding super-state to choose someone over which it had little to no power.

A man who ran for office promising to Make America Great Again. A President who believes not just in the sovereignty of the nation-state but that ours provides something you can find no place else on earth.

When Democrats Take Back Congress They Will Repeal Tax Reform

September 26, 2018April 9, 2018 Steve MacDonald

Nancy Pelosi announced that one of the first things Democrats will do when they regain control is to repeal and replace recent Republican Tax reforms. And she promises it will be bipartisan and done in daylight, (unlike healthcare reform, I guess). So, what might that look like?

If previous proposals are any indication, Pelosi plans on instituting a major tax hike, particularly focused on punishing those same generous corporations. In a plan published last month, Congressional Democrats proposed a $1 trillion dollar tax hike, pushing the corporate tax rate from its current 21% to 25%, undoing tax breaks for high earners, and re-instituting a top tax bracket that could tax some Americans at a rate of nearly 40%.
