I’d like to check the pulse of the “money-out-of-politics” crowd, mostly far-left progressives, on Billionaire Tom Steyer starting up another NextGen political money laundering operation in New Hampshire.
I predict a flatline. No outrage. No protests. No complaints of any kind about the California Billionaire dumping another $30 million into state politics, $750,000.00 right here in New Hampshire.
The left has settled into its latest anti-Trump narrative. He’s evil because he separates parents and children. That’s funny because an entire progressive social experiment or (experiments) championed and defended by liberals has been separating parents and children for decades. And I’m not talking about abortion.
No fault divorce. Modern Feminism. Glorifying single-motherhood. The infantilzation of boys and men. A Welfare state weaponized by progressives politicians to keep children away from at least one parent. But wait! There’s more!
Can Democrats run for office in 2018 on recent economic success? There are media narratives in place. The problem with liberals and their narratives, however, is that they are bound only in the moment without regard to anything that came before or after.
So, when it comes to the Economy and the 2018 Elections, the Trump haters have a problem.
Levi ‘s Sander’s is running for Congress in New Hampshire. And he says, “we’re reaching out to a lot of low income and working class folks. I’m starting to get a good group of folks in New Hampshire, and I’m feeling very good.”
But no one else is feeling the vibe.
Sanders grabbed national headlines in late February when he announced his bid for the House in New Hampshire’s high profile First Congressional District.
There is no shortage of exposition on this blog site about the wasted effort on the part of Socially liberal Republicans to appease the left. This penchant culminated Friday when the Governor ‘quietly’ signed two bills that advance the Left’s cultural Marxist agenda putting rank and file Republican reelections at risk and by extension Gov. Sununu’s as well.
As I noted here. “Mr. Sununu needs to consider what happens to New Hampshire if he signs HB1319 because he won’t be the only Republican who suffers.”
A recent survey of Dartmouth Students got ample attention from me here and here, but Jack Kerwick, writing at Townhall.com, combed through it here and I wanted to share his conclusion because it distills the noisy narratives down to a moment of clarity.
In summary, the Dartmouth survey establishes the truth of three propositions:
(1)Republican students are overwhelmingly outnumbered by Democrats at Dartmouth.
The Masterpiece Cakeshop ruling continues to bear fruit. David French, writing at National Review Online, has provided several pieces that emphasize the upside of the decision, here, here, and here.
One important point that is a gift that should keep on giving is a quote from the Decision written by Justice Kennedy.
To describe a man’s faith as “one of the most despicable pieces of rhetoric that people can use” is to disparage his religion in at least two distinct ways: by describing it as despicable, and also by characterizing it as merely rhetorical — something insubstantial and even insincere.
Doing our part to use the left’s hypocrisy to our advantage.
As reported June 1st, the nation reached a milestone. Black unemployment has hit a record low. Racial disparity in unemployment is also at a historical low. That’s kind of crazy if we really are all a bunch of racists. But even if we were, which we are not, you’d expect that so-called party of People of Color would be screaming it from their solar panel covered rooftops.
Not one member of New Hampshire’s All Gurl Democrat Delegation has written a single word about it since it was announced eight days ago.
The People running the People’s Republic of Vermont (into the ground) have decided to offer 10,000.00 dollar bribes to the first 100 people who qualify for what they are calling a Remote-Worker Grant Program. To get the cash incentive you have to move yourself and your remote-work job to the Green Mountain State, (and then pay taxes, backstop socialized medicine and other rising welfare costs, along with increasing unfriendly policies towards natural rights including speech, property, and self-defense).
I think they left (most of that) out of the brochure.
The party of progress just got their summer vacation canceled due to their all-out effort to prevent progress.
Senators will receive “a state work period” the first full week of August, but must come back to D.C. after that.
This is bad news for the incumbent Democrat senators since they will not have the ability to campaign during the month. Democrats have 26 seats up for re-election in November along with independent seats in Maine and Vermont, both belonging to senators who caucus with the Democrats.
Speaking to Democrats at Saint Anselm College on Friday, Former US Attorney General Eric Holder said Students who want to vote in New Hampshire get a NH Driver’ License and register their cars.
“If you are gonna be considered a resident of this state so you can vote, that means that you have to follow all the other residency requirements that any other citizen would have to comply with,” Holder told reporters. “If you are a New Hampshire resident you have to do a variety of things, and if you’re a college student and a resident, you should have to do the same things.”
Kurt Schlichter has invested some time to help the peeps deal with progressive mic-drop rubbish designed to prevent debate or silence dissent. He calls them obnoxious liberal argument cheats. And he’s got a reliable answer for each that I’ve advocated for years. So read them all. But I wanted to share at least one of his scenarios because this one comes at us from all sides.
They like to try to weaponize our morality against us, which is hilarious since they hate morality almost as much as they hate us. They create some sort of moral test, usually out of thin air, and then announce you have failed it. One of the best was the recent “Splitting up families of undocumented workers is not who we are!” Except it is who we are. We split up the families of criminals all the time and we should – there’s no nursery in San Quentin for a reason.
Democrats as a party are not just hypocrites about diversity and equity, they are training future generations of “leaders” to be ideological isolationists.
On March 20th, 2014 I produced (what I thought was) a useful visual aid. It demonstrated the truth about Democrat “feelings” and “concern” for the impact of average US retail gas prices on “Working Americans” and or “American Families.” They don’t care.
It showed how, when George Bush was President, it was a huge issue. Democrats running for office in 2008 ran on it. While Gas was between three and four-dollars per gallon under Obama, four approximately four years, Democrats had nothing to say. They didn’t talk about it. It didn’t concern them.
History repeats itself, so it’s time for a new visual aid to help demonstrate the truth about the left and the cost of motor fuel.
It will take more than sensitivity-training sessions and the public shaming of racist, hypervigilant white women to dismantle today’s system of segregation https://t.co/827sEZDDgd — New York Times Opinion (@nytopinion) May 28, 2018 They are always laying the groundwork for something over at the NYT and no place better to do that than in an “opinion” … Read more
Like that’s actually a good thing. Speaking Friday morning,[ NH Sec. of State Bill] Gardner … said he was asked by former state Rep. and House Election Law Committee member Susan DeLemus to attend the group’s July 9 meeting. Gardner said he agreed because he’s happy to speak about election law and the reasons “why … Read more
But that would be giving them the benefit of a very large doubt. Unlike Trump, they want to be “liked” by their political opponents. Who, as we all know, hate their guts to the core. Yet, to steal a phrase from The Resistance, “she they persisted” in not taking ahold of a perfect political meme (seriously, the Democrats ARE defending the MS-13 gang members from South America!) and running with it. Sure, a handful that are that are not going along with the GOPe insistence on using the Marquis of Queensberry boxing rules against the Dems adopting MMA rules (or put another way,
