It’s no wonder that the approval ratings for the Democrat Party remain at record lows. Party leaders can’t seem to come up with an agenda that isn’t devious, deceptive, and self-serving. More often than not, their political strategies are just plain bizarre. Who can forget their “defund the police” fiasco? During the 2020 presidential election, … Read more
More propaganda for the rainbow of fake grievances. Despite widespread rejection of the incessant, divisive toxicity of an ever-growing rainbow of perceived grievances, social justice con artists scour the dogmatic universe for more faux causes to fuel their platforms. A recent example is the laughable-if-offensive effort to transform the phrase “food deserts” into “food apartheid.” … Read more
Lest anyone begin to imagine a world where having more Democrats in elected office might be different, which implies better, think again. Then think some more because the political left doesn’t want “better.” Not for you. No finer example comes to us in a recent uptick in earnings and foot traffic at Target. The retailer … Read more
The grim side effects of Musk Derangement Syndrome and accompanying TDS Burning, vandalizing, and even defecating on Tesla EVs have become commonplace despite cameras that capture culprits in the act. Such brazen behaviors are endorsed and encouraged, embracing lawlessness as a moral good. Vietnam War protesters were not this extreme, and their goal was more … Read more
If Democrats want to move the needle in 2026 (in their political favor) they might consider the crime problem. Democrats are defending illegal alien criminals, including violent gang members. Democrats are not denouncing crimes. Democrat rhetoric sounds criminal (threats, anger, etc). Democrats lost in 2024 in part by being soft on crime. Democrats are committing … Read more
What Does That Even Mean? According to Summit Defense Criminal Lawyers, you are less likley to get arrested in Washington, Michigan, and Vermont, than in any other states in the nation. How you take that is a matter of personal preference. Criminals might think, damn, better places to commit crimes, and that might be correct. … Read more
It Sure Looks That Way The plethora of misinformation coming from the Media and Democrat leadership is fueling the lemmings that are rallying, singing, and throwing Molotov Cocktails at Tesla dealerships. We have not seen this widespread violence since the Summer of Love in response to the death of George Floyd. The Democrat Party is … Read more
No doubt the defund the police movement has been devastating for Burlington and other communities throughout Vermont, as our once safest-in-the-nation state has seen an unprecedented and undesirable rise in crime. But while “Defund the Police!” has gotten all the headlines and protest placards (cue Law & Order theme music), “In the criminal justice system, … Read more
Clipped from this week’s edition of Granite State Live, Keith uses a clueless mayor’s remarks to launch another epic rant. This time it’s on crime, cops, Democrats, and gun rights. It was something special and I didn’t want anyone to miss it. Note: It is clipped to address an audio issue but you’re not missing … Read more

Unitarian Universalists give Get Out Of Jail Free Cards at Valley Street Jail in Manchester The Unitarian Universalist “Church” (UUC) is more like a liberal club, but Church is in the name, and they maintain a patina of belief, but mostly in secular, culture-destroying Marxist-progressive ideals. DEI, CRT, LGBTQ, and so on, and part of … Read more
Joe Biden’s pardon of little Tony Fauci may not work out as well as everyone feared. Biden signed a blanket pardon excusing the creepy lying douchebag of any crimes between 2014 and 2024. The silver lining is that Congress can call him in to testify, and the pardon abrogates his Fifth Amendment right to refuse … Read more
A “cannibal” who killed a homeless man and ate his eyes and brain was committed in 2013 to Connecticut’s custody for a term of 60 years, then released from the secure facility where he had been housed on “temporary leave” to a group home in September 2023. A hearing scheduled for February 21 will determine whether he is … Read more
The Soros-funded social-justice experiment of recruiting progressive prosecutors who function more as a second phalanx of defense attorneys has crashed in flames. California’s Proposal 36 was supported by more than 70% of voters and reversed these ill-considered policies to correct course for public safety. Such strong support in such a blue state reveals the profound … Read more
You can call it the ‘Michael Reynolds Law,’ after the Burlington-area transient with more than 1600 police interactions since 2012 and still going strong this month with reported abusive, disruptive, threatening behavior. Or you could call it the ‘Abdirahman Mohammed Law,’ after the 22-year-old Burlington man with a mere 35 run-ins with law enforcement, 11 … Read more
The modern identity politics race pimps peddling Critical Race Theory and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion tell us that reverse racism is impossible. It is not a thing. Black people can hate whites and deny them opportunities or jobs or even rental space, and that’s not discrimination. I would argue that you can do all those … Read more
Montpelier’s Progressive-minded City Council repealed a ban on panhandling in 2018 and refused requests to ban loitering in 2019. In 2021, it adopted a “general non-involvement approach” towards emergency (read: homeless) encampments, except for those located in ‘high-sensitivity areas.’ In 2023, former City Councilor and newly elected House member Conor Casey argued on behalf of homeless city residents … Read more
An Instagram page has taken the initiative to publicize some concerning imagery and videos of the Queen City’s homeless and drug epidemics. The page is crudely titled “burlington_looks_like_shxt”, it has at least 36,300 followers and more than 300 posts. There are numerous public comments. Generally, folks are upset but not surprised. Some are ready to take this … Read more
A Vermont judge on November 3 told a New Hampshire man pleading guilty to nine crimes that he was lucky to be in a Vermont courtroom instead of facing sterner justice his home state.
