With Independence Day almost here, proud Americans are gearing up to celebrate the birthday of the greatest nation in the world. There’ll be fireworks displays, parades, and family gatherings.

If It Is Not Working, Do You Keep Doing The Same Thing
Albert Einstein says, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” That is how I see our political system, especially in Maine and New Hampshire. Looking back 40 or 50 years, both states were traditionally conservative. Still, a migration of people left Massachusetts to the less expensive Granite State or the tranquil and beautiful Pine Tree State.
If The left Believe They Can Get Away With It, They Do It
On Tuesday, former Trump White House staffer, best-selling author, and current Salem Radio Host Sebastian Gorka posted a video showing how – even though they claim that Trump and conservatives pose a violent threat to America – Democrats are the ones who publicly call for violence.
Night Cap: Is Leftism a Gateway to Retardation?
Is leftism a gateway to retardation? In short, yes. There are several ways to understand how today’s leftists are veritable idiots, bereft of intelligence, and susceptible to the most death-defying levels of stupidity.
What Is Morally Justifiable
There Is no such thing as “morally justifiable” except in the minds of Liberals. If we continue to let the Left enjoy a majority rule, we will continue to see our rights and privileges erode and have no one to blame but the face in the mirror.
Who Wins “Biggest Dunce” Award for the Biennium?
This is the 150th Behind the Lines post since I started this page eighteen months ago at the beginning of the 2023-2024 legislative biennium. Thanks to everyone who has subscribed, shared, and grown the audience over the past year and a half, and welcome to many new subscribers who have joined in the last few weeks!
Since the Election of Donald Trump, the Left Has Lost Its Collective Mind
Since the election of Donald Trump, the left has lost its collective mind. They have gone into a stage of sheer lunacy and have not returned. It seems the entire liberal world has combined their efforts to take Trump out at all costs. But in this devilish process, the left has exposed its true nature. … Read more
For Democrats, Justice is a One-Way Street
Most people would agree that no free society can survive without a fair, unbiased justice system, one in which everyone is treated equally and no one is above the law. While so many governments around the world are rife with corruption and unequal justice, most Americans agree that, while imperfect, our judicial system has always been the best there is.
The Leftists Calling Us Fascists Doth Protest Too Much
When Ed wrote this (Yes, “They Are The Fascists” … But It Has Little To Do With Censorship), my first thought was that he would be referring to what I wrote here (They Are The Fascists).
The Facts Show The Impact Of Progressives On Maine
Progressive politicians have taken over Maine and are making the most of their time in power. These people, who live on the extreme left of society, know that the clock is ticking, and they must initiate as much change as they can before the people realize they were wrong, giving these people the wheel and taking it away.
Night Cap: Who is the Left and Why Should We Abandon Them?
On the steps of a court in downtown New York City, former President Donald Trump noted that the threat to the USA today is not from Russia or China or from the US political right. The threat is from the left. It is an internal threat from the US political left.
Denver Dems Cut Police and Fire Budgets to Pay For Biden’s “Immigrant” Invasion
One of the foundations of progressive politics is putting government first. Build it, fund it, defend it. The corollary, well known worldwide, is that sooner or later, you run out of other people’s money, to which I’ll add, but that doesn’t stop the “beatings.”
If It’s Not ‘Racist’ “Democrats” Would Have to Take Credit for Their Failures And They’d Rather Blame You
Many imbalances or inequities in our culture result from the same problem. The failure of “the state” to put academic rigor ahead of politics. And who runs “the state”? Bureaucrats, financed by the DC uniparty, which is run by Democrats.
100 Years of Being Treated Like George Floyd, For What?
One thing that did not get defunded after the George Floyd/BLM Summer of Love was cop shows. There is no shortage of police or detective dramas extolling the intellectual agility of some quirky investigator with a physical or social disability. Or a team of racially and sexually diverse members who adroitly unravel complex conspiracies ripe … Read more
Wake Up Maine Democrats, This Is Not Your Parent’s Party
It is not easy, and it may be very uncomfortable, to change your political affiliation because you finally realize that it is not you who is leaving the Party, but the Party has left you. I grew up in Massachusetts, where everyone joined the Democrat Party at birth. Those many years ago, John Kennedy personified the Democrat Party.
Leading the Nation in Making People Jobless and Homeless
Democrats reportedly are celebrating after passing their $20. hr min wage for many businesses. Yup, a victory for labor rights, they say, only there is a cost. As predicted, fast food chains are scrambling to adjust. Layoffs of full-time employment, cutting hours, some even closing up. Topping this off, prices are rising as we knew they would.
Democrats Have No Sanctity For Life
There are two major political factions in America. Yes, there are independents, but those are just people afraid of commitment or ignorant of the issues. Years ago, when the parties were philosophically closer, you could ride the middle and say there were beliefs on either side that you could back.
The “Enduring American Tradition of Firearms Regulation ” Defense … Went About as Well As You’d Expect.
In 2022, the State of Washington, rather than punishing only criminals who bring more than ten rounds of ammunition to a crime, took its hoplophbia out on everyone by prohibiting the sale of “large capacity” magazines to anyone in the state.
Something Else Don Lemon and Ilhan Omar Have In Common
There is a long list of things that any two high-profile tin-foil-hat Proglodytes will have in common. A preference for high crime, poverty, and chaos, for example (in your neighborhood, not theirs). But now, former CNN talking head Don Le′mon and congress-critter Ilhan Omar share another hypocrisy.
Vermont’s Dumb (and Unconstitutional) Bill to Fine Big Oil for “Emissions”
The confidence artists doing business as Vermont’s Democratic majority legislature have crafted a bill it thinks will make Big Oil pay for environmental damage which it claims is the result of years of detrimental emissions.
