Democrat Driven NH House: Taking Away Your Liberty This Week, One Bill at a Time

March 17, 2019 Op-Ed

by Christopher Maidment Next week, the House will meet for three marathon sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. For most of us Granite Staters, nothing good will happen. The House majority will approve bills that limit our freedoms, restrict our rights, raise our taxes, and make everyday life harder. They’ll vote to restrict single-use plastic … Read more

Missouri Bill: “Every Resident of this State Shall Own at Least One AR-15”

January 18, 2025March 17, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The McDaniel Militia Act as proposed by Missouri Rep. Andrew McDaniel would require residents of the State of Missouri aged 18-34 to own at least one AR-15. Up to 75% of the cost of one rifle can be claimed as a tax credit on taxable income in the State. Liberal heads must be exploding. “Any … Read more

New Hampshire Democrats: You Are Not Paying Enough for Electricity

January 18, 2025March 17, 2019 Steve MacDonald

By nearly unanimous rubber-stamp consent 99% of New Hampshire Democrats, including all four from Merrimack, are convinced your electric rates are too low. You are just not paying enough. So, last week they voted on at least three separate occasions to “fix” that problem. House Bill 447 would have corrected a more-than-decade-old money-laundering scheme. Democrats added a carbon … Read more

Democrats Want to Primary Ilhan Omar
I Pray That Happens and it is Not Successful

March 16, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Ilhan Omar, the new female (let’s not forget that accomplishment) Congressman from Minnesota has raised some hackles with her anti-Christian anti-Jewish rhetoric of hate. The hackles come from both sides of the political spectrum; the Left, and the rest of America. And now Democrats are trying to find a “replacement” for her in the next primary.

NH Democrats Pointless War on ‘Convenience’ Would Also “Ban” Plastic Shopping Bags

January 18, 2025March 16, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The business of government in the hands of a Democrat majority is to legislate away convenient, affordable, useful, free-market solutions (among other things). If it works for you, it doesn’t work for them. Take plastic shopping bags.

NH Democrats New “Illegal Drinking Straw” Hotline – Cost: $93,000.00 a Year to Start

January 18, 2025March 16, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The Democrats Single-Use Plastics ban bill I wrote about in January was too much too soon so it was retained in committee. But fear not ignorant consumers. The Democrats have backups. Including a Bill to “protect you” from the dangers of single-use plastic Drinking straws.

So Kids, What Did We Learn From This Week’s NH House Session (3/14)?

March 15, 2019 Judy Aron

We learned that the Democrats (the majority party) are fine with expanding dental coverage for Medicaid recipients (HB692-FN) while our State’s veterans, both able body and disabled, go without such coverage. We learned that the Majority party is only interested in studying assisted suicide instead of enlarging the scope to include palliative and hospice alternatives … Read more

House Democrats Vote for Fewer Jobs in New Hampshire

March 15, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The laboratories of the States (and some cities) have proven time and again that politicians are a threat to the job market. Mandatory minimum wages never create more jobs. They result in higher unemployment, fewer hours, higher prices, and less opportunity. Local Democrats have decided they want that for New Hampshire.

New Hampshire Democrats Retain Oppressive Carbon Tax Bill in Committee

March 13, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Remember HB735, the New Hampshire Democrat’s carbon tax bill? It would suck hundreds of millions of dollars out of the state economy every year. Kill jobs. Hurt families. It’s not dead. It has been retained in committee. Which means it could come back to life without warning to kill our economy.

CNN: Democrats Can’t Decide If they Are Antisemites Because They Are More Diverse

March 13, 2019March 13, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The big news over at CNN is how unfair President Trump is for taking advantage of Democrats diversity. One analyst argued that this was the source of the parties difficulties in crafting a response to antisemitic remarks by one of its members. We’re just not sophisticated enough to know the difference division and debate.

Dems Don’t-Wanna Impeach, No More, No More …

March 12, 2019March 12, 2019 Steve MacDonald

It may not mean anything. After all, San Fran Nan doesn’t have control of her raucous caucus. But she says she does not favor impeaching President Trump. Why? Swallow any liquids before you read this. It divides the country.

Mark Levin: The Democrat Party Should Pay any Reparations to the Children of Slaves

June 20, 2019March 10, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The Democrat party likes to talk about paying reparations for slavery. They don’t mean it. Not the way you think. They are using blacks (again) as a way to divert wealth from the hands of people who did the work on their own.

Quick Shot: Is Ilhan Omar The New Democrat Party Spokesperson for Jewish Outreach?

March 8, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Pelosi’s one-eighty has turned a rebuke of antisemitism to an embrace as a matter of Democrat policy. An act of self-service rather than sacrifice. What could have been a hedge against hate has become another meaningless gesture that has promoted Ilhan Omar to the role of spokesperson for policy on Jews.

Stand Up or Get Out

March 7, 2019

The young, upstart, leftist, future leaders of the Democrat Party are off and running 60 days in! And what are they up to is as expected – hate. You need a target if you want to bully a person or people and the Democrat “in crowd” have chosen Israel and Jews, in general. The dog … Read more

Get Used to This: Calling Out Antisemitism is Islamophobic

April 4, 2019March 7, 2019 Steve MacDonald

As Pelosi and company back off any statement about Ilhan Omar her pal Rashida Tlaib is setting the table for conversations to come. Moving forward any remark about antisemitism directed at Muslims will be framed as Islamophobic.

“Free College” Resoundingly Rejected by New Hampshire Democrats – Guess Why?

March 7, 2019March 7, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Democrats like to talk about spending tax dollars to improve education. Mention college tuition and you’ll get an earful about how the State needs to invest more (of your money) to keep the price down. So why did New Hampshire Democrats just vote against Free College?

The Liberal Utopia is Incompatible With Intellectual Diversity

April 14, 2023March 7, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Boston University student Diana Soriano suggested to her peers that the classroom could benefit from more intellectual diversity. Most classrooms would. So, how was her suggestion received? She was compared to a well-known student who had been labeled a neo-nazi.

Democrats Bickering Over What to do About Ilhan Omar’s Antisemitism

March 6, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Ilhan Omar’s latest “wrong turn” came when she said that pro-Israel advocates have allegiance to Israel. It’s an old trope. One that rubs plenty of Jews the wrong way regardless of political party. And just the latest of Omar’s antisemitic remarks. It is a problem that has put Nancy Pelosi at odds with her caucus.

Great Question: Why Would People Flee Socialist Utopias to Come to the US?

March 5, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The Genesius Times bills itself as ‘The Most Reliable Source for Fake News on the Planet.” Parody with a purpose, I like to call it. Like this. “Millions risking lives to flee free healthcare and food for evil capitalist countries.” Experts are befuddled as to why refugees continue to pour in from socialist paradises like … Read more
