With every presidential election year comes the ominous October surprise. However with things heating up at this week’s Democratic National Convention, the Prince of Darkness has surprised the world yet again by publicly endorsing Donald Trump, doing it of course during the hottest month in recorded history. Banana’s Media was able to catch up to … Read more
I am NOT a fan of our Speaker. I’ve criticized many committee assignments here and called him the captain of a ship of uniparty corruption. I am also developing a pattern of writing commentaries on NH Journal articles. The featured piece for this one is their story of House leadership’s ousting of Emily Phillips from … Read more
Can the average American, the one who wants to get a good education, get a good job, raise a family in a safe neighborhood, and pass along a better America to their children, ever feel like they have a say in their future? Have Americans relented so much power to the government that we are … Read more
Democrats want us to believe that systemic racism is prevalent in every nook and cranny and every age group in America. They like to point a finger at the Right and connect all of our beliefs to racism. Blaming conservatives for being racist is their favorite line of attack, regardless of ethnic nationality or economic … Read more
By Gage Klipper | Daily Caller – Throughout the Democratic National Convention, Democrats made a big show out of being “normal,” of standing for “freedom” and traditional, patriotic values. They did their best, but of course it is all a lie; there’s nothing normal about them. Allow me to guide you through the Democrats’ wondrous … Read more
By J. Peder Zane – RealClear Wire Most of us get the big things right: Don’t touch fire, wrestle alligators, or play in traffic. But beneath these necessary survival strategies, we are boundless reservoirs of delusion. While many of our unmoored beliefs are specific to us – I seem to be the only person who … Read more
I want to write a story about the presidential election with a positive twist, but the Democrats refuse to let me. They choose to do anything that boggles the mind and makes you question the humanity of the folks on the Left. A few months ago, the most challenging policy to square was the continuous … Read more
We do not know precisely what the Democrat platform is for the 2024 election because, after nearly four weeks on the campaign trail, no reporter has asked Kamala Harris a question. Harris and Walz have made numerous appearances, both together and alone, and given vague, sweeping speeches off a teleprompter, but not once have they … Read more
“Winning is merely a precursor; what is of most importance is what happens afterward.” In my early years, I voted for a Party’s candidates based on their Platform. Later, in mid-life, I learned that while the Platform should be the Standard of Measure/Quality Assurance document, I had learned through a rude experience to shift my voting focus. … Read more
After more than 50 years, Joe Biden is finally leaving the political scene. It’s something both Republicans and Democrats wanted but for different reasons. Republicans have always seen him as a weak politician without convictions or scruples, compromised by foreign adversaries, and suffering from increasing mental confusion. Democrats certainly saw the same thing but managed … Read more
I have always felt it is difficult to lie. The truth is easy to remember, but when you start to bend the facts, you have to remember your version of reality and who you told what. The Democrats are good at twisting the truth or, as some people would say, lying. The advantage the Democrats … Read more
A little more than four years ago, a Democratic Party desperate for a viable presidential candidate not named “Bernie” or “Elizabeth” turned to good ol’ “Amtrak Joe” to deliver the goods. The mission: To “save” the country from President Donald Trump and his allegedly dangerous band (approximately 73 million of them) of “MAGA” supporting Republicans. … Read more
While the Democrat party continues its long, not-so-slow march to the Left, the not-so-rank and file are not so sure they like where the party is going. Two months ago, Democrat primary voters handed squadster Jamaal ‘False Alarm’ Bowman his walking papers and replaced him with a more moderate white guy who likes Israel (Jamaal … Read more
The shift in focus from Biden to Harris is nothing short of epic, and there’s no reason not to keep the brightest possible light shining on that dim bulb. But I heard something the other day, and I apologize for failing to recall the source. No one cares about the past. I’m paraphrasing. Yes, history … Read more
There were a couple of nuggets in a couple of VT Digger stories that, taken together, are worth noting because they highlight a real problem with how things currently run under the Golden Dome – that is, with a maturity level found in your average middle school cafeteria. The first piece comes from a story about the … Read more
Democrats think JD Vance is weird—I mean, really weird. And what started with Vance has since been attached—by the chattering class propagandist punditry—to the Trump campaign and Republicans in general. It is a 2024 version of deplorable, with a whimsical twist. But is it any less offensive, and does it open them up to attack? … Read more
Fourteen Blue State Attorney Generals signed a letter asking the Feds and FEMA to recognize extreme heat and wildfire smoke as major disaster declarations. The goal is to get the Feds to write them a check backed by your increasingly useless dollars, ‘cuz climate change. “The climate change science is clear and overwhelming: our planet is … Read more
If you are a rank-and-file Democrat in the Vermont House of Representatives – a soldier in the Supermajority – you are told by Party leadership how to vote. The majority leader will, in fact, hold up a paper sign, Yes or No, informing you how to cast your ballot on key issues. And you better … Read more
A new report released by MassInc and UMass Donahue claims that over 480,000 Massachusetts residents, or 10% of the state’s workforce, are not proficient in English. Is that a sanctuary problem? Do you think it will stay in Massachusetts? The problem comes directly from open borders and illegal immigration. The report states that 480,000 people … Read more
Nathaniel Grigsby died in 1890 and was interred at the Attica Cemetery in Attica, Kansas.
