“Unasked for tax cuts result in unanticipated tax revenues”

This past Wednesday I traveled down to Manchester for an early morning meeting.  Normally, I’ll listen to Pat Kelly and Peter St. James on “Good Morning NH” on WEMJ  on my way down for my irregular attendance (at least lately) to this meeting and I have been known to call in from time to time.  I’ve … Read more

Democrat Chris Pappas Backs Pelosi for Speaker of the US House

Freshman Democrat Congressperson-elect Chris Pappas has followed career politician Ann Kuster down the rabbit hole. Kuster’s Thanksgiving gift to New Hampshire was a repeat endorsement of Nancy Pelosi for Speaker of the House. Pappas has joined her in supporting Pelosi after months of avoiding the subject of who he might earn his favor. Related: We Can’t Trust Chris … Read more

Blogline of the Day: C’est vrai!

“Democrats do not have foreign enemies; they have domestic enemies.” What about Russia, you ask – don’t the Dems view them as “foreign enemies”? No – only a useful idiot foil to use against their real enemies – domestically, that would be Trump and his supporters. (H/T: Instapundit)

Democrat State Senators: Granite State Opportunity Plan – A State Budget That Works for Everyone

Yeah…..nope.  Impossible and can’t be done for a few commonsense reasons I’ll list in a few minutes.

Unlike the Republicans (and I’ll talk about THAT in a few minutes, too), the Democrats have their plan and their bills all ready on the NH Legislative taxiway ready to take flight.  Take a look at the list of the LSRs (Legislative Service Requests – ideas for bill to be put into “legislative-ese”. Note: your’s truly has asked my new House reps to sponsor one for me) – all kinds of spending, taxing….and behavior modification (yeah, you don’t behave according to them).  The NH State Senators already have their overall plan, Granite State Opportunity Plan, in place (thanks to the helpless NH GOP, they now run the show) and plan on pursuing it hot and heavy.

It will be a disaster if they do and let me start picking it apart with the first part of it (other Groksters will be pulling other strings): A State Budget That Works for Everyone. A Pure Public Relations play – such a thing is impossible and they either know it and are lying about it or they really believe their crap don’t stick and don’t know that it does.  Let us proceed with the fisking, shall we?

Andrew-Yang-2020

Update: “once untrustworthy, always restricted” – the Communist Chinese policy that Prez wannabe Democrat Andrew Yang wants implement in the US

Actually, that’s not the name of my post but that quote above is a better description,”once untrustworthy, always restricted”, of the “Social Trust” system that China is building.  I’ve got a few links for you to read, with pull quotes, to give you the jist of the system that Andrew Yang want to do here in the US.  No limited government he – as I said in my previous post, Yang wants a US surveillance system that would make the feared East German secret police, who had binders on EVERYONE, look like slackers.  It’s bad enough to have thousands of CCTV cameras on city streets and RFID transceivers all along our highways.  It’s bad enough to have the FAANGS  (e.g., Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Google) pouring over and hoovering up our personal data (and having just signed up for Social Security, I now have a glimpse of the “teeniest, tiny-est tip of the iceburg” information the Feds gather to “verify that you are you”).

Naw, Andrew Yang wants the US to establish its own “trustworthy score” for everyone in the US – yet the nine black robed judges said that we (well, at least pregnant women) have the privacy to kill our babies? And other “intimate” acts?  How does one adjudicate the two – and worse, who decides algorithmically what is “moral” and what isn’t and then place scores on us all?

Here are the links – read them (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Trump vs DC

Why Donald Trump is an Existential Threat…

The government is an institution like any other. As such, it relies on certain understandings. There is a natural order. A chain of command. Matters of deference. It has rules, a culture, and these things sustain its “survival.” An existence separate from the Constitution that created it and defines it. Those of us outside that institution … Read more

BlogQuestion of the Day: “2020 starts now, Skip”

We helped Democrats rack up historic victories in 2018 — taking back the House, flipping key state legislative chambers, and picking up governors’ mansions and Senate seats. The reason we won all of these races is that grassroots donors invested in these races early, and helped build a foundation for victory.

That’s the title and part of the message of yet another email missive I got from the Democrat National Committee (as an Independent, they’ve glommed onto my email address, along with almost every other Democrat group and candidate – DELUGED with email these past few months. Jus’ askin’.  Look, I’m only 1 guy in a very small State with only 1 vote.  So why are the Democrats so hungry and already reaching out?  And it isn’t just from the DNC, either!  Yet:

 So why haven’t the Republican apparatuses done the same? With the same frequency and intensity?

Dan Crenshaw May Be the New Republican “YouTube” Star

During Chris Christie’s first term as governor his recorded conversations with voters, union reps, any manner of constituent became known as Chris Christie porn. The way he questioned the union and establishment status quo in New Jersey Town Hall meetings was thrilling to watch. And he’s an establishment Republican sort of guy. Since then Trey Gowdy … Read more

Are New Hampshire Democrats Backing Away From Promised Tax Hikes?

All year long New Hampshire Democrats have been whining about how cutting New Hampshire’s business taxes was a hand out to the rich. Corporate bailouts. The standard socialist-Democrat class warfare rhetoric. Back in the real world, these tax cuts have produced record job growth, wage growth, and record labor force participation. Regular folk are working and earning … Read more

Broward County Election Supervisor Brenda Snipes Resigns

The now infamous Brenda Snipes, the Elections supervisor for Broward County Florida, has resigned. Don’t worry, it has nothing to do with how she conducts elections or recounts. She says she wants to spend more time with her family. Oh, and racism. Related: Florida Dem Party Conspired in Advance to Use Forged Ballots in Anticipated Recount A … Read more

It isn’t just about the marijuana tax revenue Democrats desire…

As Steve posted, the reason why the Democrats decided to go all out on legalizing marijuana was not that they treasure Liberty (they don’t) but that they want YOUR money in their Treasury.  It’s one of the reasons I’m against legalization and against casinos here in NH: both do nothing more than act as an expensive facade for bigger, more expensive government leading to more boondoggles and intrusiveness.

But the other reason? They’re beaming that they’ll achieve yet another Democrat Agenda item at the same! Question E…

Manchester Democrats Are Afraid of Rich Girard.

The Left likes to tell you who scares them. One of the signs or symptoms of this condition is hyperbolic imaginings. Organized into a systematic hit. Like those on display from Manchester Democrats directed at Board of School Committee member Rich Girard. It’s not just THAT they are accusing him of inappropriate communications with a … Read more

Decolonizing Thanksgiving: A Toolkit for Combatting Racism in Schools.”

Liberals have been wrecking Thanksgiving for years. In the past, it’s been the DCCC annual ruin Thanksgiving guide/talking points. Your racist, sexist, relatives will spout lies comrades (Lies I tell You!) and here’s what you need to know to set everyone in hearing-distance straight (like ideological conversion therapy). Because that’s how you get invited back … Read more

Girls Can Grow Up to Be Anything…Just Not Conservative

Elections where minority candidates lose, except in places like (say) New Hampshire, have become an opportunity for the left to wield the nuclear bomb called racism, on (of all people) women. Exit polling where Stacy Abrahams and Andrew Gillum have yet to win (because Democrat voting never ends even after the polls close) showed more white women voting for … Read more
