For the last 40 years, all we’ve heard from the Left is that we’re fascists. It has intensified over the last several years. Why? Power – or the loss or lack thereof. Their message has stopped resonating with the public. Their rants are no longer persuasive. Their only backup plan is to try to otherize … Read more
Fellow Democrats, Stand Up and Walk Out (again). Rep. Jonah Wheeler has broken the internet again, or is about to. Contrary to his party’s preferences (Democrats), he is at odds with them for voting with the Republicans on HB148 (which passed 201-166).[Related: Democrat State Rep Calls for Change – In the Democrat Party] This bill permits classification … Read more
You’d think that with everything happening in the realm of energy policy – the need to do something about the trainwreck Clean Heat Standard, the failure to meet the first Global Warming Solutions Act mandate for 2025, the lawsuit resulting from that, the projection that we’ll miss the 2030 deadline as well, the threatened cuts … Read more
Representative Gary Woods is a member of the Health and Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee. He is a Democrat elected from our State Capitol, and is a retired medical professional (an expert). Originally from California. Berkeley (Physics) then Johns Hopkins (Biophysics) and finally Univ. Rochester (MD) where I stayed on the Orthopaedic Faculty 5 … Read more
The last few weeks have been devastating for the Democrats. They had an internal explosion when Chuck Schumer broke from the base and voted in favor of the Republican version of the Continuing Resolution. Most members of the Party felt that Schumer had abandoned them and surrendered to Trump and the MAGA Republicans. Many of … Read more
If Turnabout is Fair Play Sergey Nechayev, the author of “The Blueprint for communist revolution,” observed in his pamphlet, The Revolutionary Catechism, that “The only form of revolution beneficial to the people is one which destroys the entire State to the roots and exterminates all the state traditions, institutions, and classes… “Our task is terrible, … Read more
Elon Musk, the relentless force driving electric vehicle dominance and SpaceX into the cosmos, has redirected his insatiable appetite for disruption toward an unexpected target: the sprawling machinery of the U.S. federal government. On January 20, 2025, through an executive order signed by President Trump, Musk took charge of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a new entity … Read more
Two days after transgender activists disrupted a peaceful, educational National Detransitioning Awareness Day event at the Vermont State House, and one day after the Senate and House (Democrat) Majority Leaders blamed the Vermont Family Alliance event organizers for their “attack” on trans rights, the VFA is demanding an apology. VDC’s video footage of biological males dressed … 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
It’s safe to say Senator Terry Williams (R-Rutland) and the Republican senators landed a blow with their parliamentary attempt to strip the Natural Resources & Energy Committee of the Clean Heat Standard repeal bill (S.68) and bring it to the floor for an up or down vote. Though all seventeen senate Democrats banded together to … Read more
While I agree with the late Tom Anderson, who said with a distinct Southern drawl, “Debating a liberal is as futile as putting talcum powder on a hog,” I occasionally do so. Not that I think that my reason and logic will change the mind of a liberal, but for others who may be reading or listening. … Read more
Donald Trump used a moment during his address to Congress last week to address the Progressive side of the chamber that was intent on sitting on their hands unless they were protesting. He made a statement with two parts sarcasm, two parts frustration, one part humor, and ten parts the truth. He pointed out that … Read more
There are some topics that you think would garner unanimous acceptance. You might think that a young boy who survived over a dozen brain surgeries to beat cancer and who dreams of being a cop or a young girl who survived an injury on the volleyball court but may suffer the effects for a lifetime … Read more
The Democrats have had some dynamic orators in our lifetime. People like JFK, Bill Clinton, and even Barack Obama could capture a crowd with their spoken word, but there does not appear to be anyone to fill that void, and we are left with word salads, TikTok sound bites, or meaningless ramblings as we heard … Read more
Very few industries rely on polling data as much as politics. That includes the 24/7 campaign machine, for, after all, politicians’ primary job is to run for and be reelected to office. Nothing written or spoken is released before it is poll-tested. Even the big-dollar donors do not write checks with lots of zeros to … Read more
The Democrat Party has undergone some dramatic changes in recent years, changes that can best be described as bizarre, maybe even un-American. One of the earliest signs of trouble appeared in 2020, after George Floyd’s death at the hands of a police officer. Democrats went berserk, launching an all-out effort to defund police departments across … 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
Democrats have nothing. Well, that’s not entirely true. They are still adept at getting Republicans to eat each other’s lunch. It works like this. Every side has factions and pundits scrabbling for eyeballs, which results in (at least) two things. Click bait bullshit headlines and hyperbolic exhortations. Dems do it, Bees do it, everyone does … Read more
We have a lot of mental deficients in my town. You probably do, too. People who think that there are local House Dems who put people over politics. It’s a nice thought, but rarely, if ever, is the case, and the Dems who attended Tuesday’s joint session of Congress just handed you a rhetorical cudgel … Read more
When Vermont voters threw out a historic number of Democrats in the November 2024 elections, including the chair of the Senate Natural Resources & Energy Committee chair, breaking the supermajorities in both chambers of the legislature, a very big reason was the Clean Heat Standard. That was a signal that nobody apart from the special … Read more
