I will concede that politicians are not a trustworthy breed. They lie about their past to enhance their present. Ask Senator Dick Bluementhal (D-CT) about his tour in Vietnam. They distort their party affiliation to make themselves attractive to more people. Ask Zohran Mamdani, the Democrat candidate for mayor of New York City, who says … Read more
For the second year in a row, it has become difficult to impossible for the usual suspects to play their tiny drought violins to scare the uninformed. Heat, however, has come in waves when it has not been cool. We had three very hot days in this corner of the globe while other “corners” have … Read more
Obama, Pelosi, Schumer, and Biden all had it wrong since 2015 when they proclaimed that Donald Trump would never be President of the United States. They couldn’t read the tea leaves then, and though they tried to destroy him in court for four years, he is back again. Trump has the luxury of a majority … Read more
Much like the New Hampshire state budget, or more specifically, the budget trailer bill, The Big Beautiful Bill (BBB) just passed by the US Senate (headed back to the House for reconciliation), is loaded with wins and losses. Critics have every right to express concern over spending priorities and claims that the net benefits will … Read more
Recently, I’ve been reflecting on the Free State Project (FSP) and its leadership, and it’s opened my eyes to some troubling shifts. After this past legislative eye-opening session, I’ve grown increasingly concerned about the direction certain libertarian factions are taking. In a candid X post, I shared, “I’m increasingly concerned with FSP leadership (emphasis on leadership) … Read more
We can’t escape the fact that there are insincere people on every side of an issue, but it is the left that has gone out of its way to politicize everything because, as Mussolini explained, there can be nothing outside the state. Everything must be political, even the idea that exhortations against the politicization of … Read more
The directionless, leaderless Democrat Party has had only one weapon against Donald Trump, which is to tie up every effort to fulfill his promises to America in court. The Democrats do not have the numbers in the House or Senate to legislate, even if they had the desire to do so. Therefore, they have taken … Read more
If Zohran Mamdani doesn’t have a campaign slogan, it should be that Democrats get what they deserve. Take Burlington, Vermont. They’ve got a two-party Democracy. Far left Democrats and further left progressives. The result is a city in rapid decline exhibiting the characteristics of every socialist toilet in human history. But it’s not their fault. … Read more
A New York bill that would restrict the size of cattle farms has sparked controversy as urban climate change legislators from the Big Apple seek to limit rural livelihoods by imposing regulatory limits on the number of cows a farm can have. The attack on cow emissions by city slickers who know nothing about farming … Read more
Democratic rule under Governor Janet Mills has exchanged a surplus in Augusta for a huge fiscal deficit. In just the last six years, the Democrats have increased the budget 65% from $7 billion to more than $11.5+ billion. Remember, only about 1.4 million people are living in Maine. The current budget amounts to a tax … Read more
New York City is the largest in the United States, with a population of 10.2 million residents. I say residents because the count includes all illegals living in the Big Apple as of the last census. NYC has more people than 38 states and nearly as many people as all 6 New England states combined. … Read more
Whether she’s convicted or acquitted, the rambunctious representative has become a trendsetter. What happens when lawmakers break the law? US Representative LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) faces a three-count criminal indictment for her questionable conduct during a May 9 conflict at a Newark detention center. When Donald Trump faced criminal charges for allegedly exaggerating the value of … Read more
The Democrats lost the war in November and also lost their way. They surrendered the White House and Senate, giving the Republicans full, though slim, control of the ship. They are experiencing their worst approval ratings in history, yet this leaderless bunch refuses to step back and realign with the American people. It is sadistically … Read more
The Left is broken, which is sort of ironic. Democrat Socialism, which is the foundation of Marxism by its founders’ own admission, breaks everything to get from wherever you are to the Communist utopia. This is known, but many on the left don’t know it. They hear promises and imagine injustices righted, but the virtue … Read more
Yesterday, a reader sent me a short email with a pair of pictures. Someone had posted a flyer on a phone pole on Middle Street in Claremont to recruit Communists. Their thinking was that the city likely had a few takes. I’d guess more than a few. I took a digital trip to the website, … Read more
Three of the best the Democrats have to offer appeared before Congress last week to testify about the Sanctuary status of their states. These three governors, who have either proclaimed themselves as candidates for President in 2028 or labeled as favorites of the Party, were embarrassed by members of the House committee when queried about … Read more
To put things in perspective, seven cities in the United States have a greater population than the state of Maine, yet the state legislature is in session, basically working around the clock, to vote on over 1,200 bills for this fiscal year. That is a difficult concept to grasp. For a state of 1.4 million … Read more
As Conservatives, we are a target for many inflammatory and often untruthful attacks on our beliefs and positions. Most of these accusations are based on misinformation from the media or left-wing politicians. One of my US Senators, Maggie Hassan (D-NH), has been posting daily about meetings with various groups that she claims will suffer directly … Read more
For someone like me who loves this country and has a sense of patriotism nurtured from birth, this article is challenging to write and even more difficult to fathom. We have become a nation not just divided by two vastly different ideologies with a common goal, but we are a people divided by what is … Read more
David Hogg is something of a Kardashian in Democrat circles. He’s famous for being famous for shouting and fist-waving after the Parkland shootings. A student of the school at the time, though, like Sandy Cortez, was neither present nor in danger. Hogg, to his credit, did not pretend to cry at the fence line, but … Read more
