Many people contacted the Executive Council to ask them to turn down a half million dollar grant that would be used to further support the Multi Tiered System of Support for Behavior in our public schools. The MTSS-B is a framework focused on a child’s behavior and mental health. Now that the MTSS-B has been implemented in New Hampshire Schools, we are discovering all kinds of problems.

Mr Stephen, Your Turn Was Not Forgotten
By now, readers should be familiar with the executive council race to replace the retiring Ted Gatsas in District 4, a seat that Nurse Terese has been focused on for over 2 years.

Night Cap: The (not so) “Quiet Phase” of Campaigning
I’m guessing most of the Grok Faithful are familiar with the areas of interest of the regular contributors. A few examples would be Ann Marie Banfield and education or Claire Best and law enforcement/justice system corruption involving the youth center.
Was Sen. Reagan Recruited to Steal the Non-Establishment Vote? You Tell Me.
I was going to name this article Part 3 of The Case for Nurse Terese, but things often don’t go as planned, and such is life. And let it be known that Mr. (John) Stephen is still due some acknowledgment for why he is NOT the correct replacement for Ted Gatsas.
The Case for Nurse Terese, Part 2.
In my previous article, I discussed the earliest candidate slate members for the executive council seat being vacated by the retirement of Ted Gatsas. I elaborated on Ryan Terrell and have been asking some questions behind the scenes and even emailed Scanlan.
He’s Back … Will GOP Voters Hand An Executive Council Seat To The Democrats?
Ted Gatsas had barely turned his horse and begun to ride off into the sunset when … LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! EVERYBODY LOOK AT ME!!! perpetual candidate and perpetual general-election loser Robert Burns politi-bombed the scene. The question now becomes will GOP voters in Gatsas’ Executive Council District hand the seat to the Democrats by nominating the clearly unelectable Burns.
The Case for Nurse Terese (for Executive Council).
Sometimes, I choose a title, and that’s how it’s published. Sometimes, management alters it at its discretion. Sometimes, I submit a piece and call it “untitled,” thus letting the editor finish the job for me. There are a variety of reasons and one of them has to do with the enjoyment of pretending I’m Howie Carr or Ed Mosca, but today’s literary inspiration is Victor Davis Hanson.
Before You Confirm Andrew Livernois, Please Investigate This!
After our original post on Gov. Sununu’s nomination of Andrew Livernois to the State Superior Court, a number of individuals commented on various aspects of what we’d reported. Along with that came what I can only call whistleblower accusations of suspicious conduct in Belknap County that Andrew Livernois would likely have had to have been aware of.
Night Cap: Accountability, Transparency and Executive Council Dynamics
From a front-row seat on January 31, I observed two well-known lawyers sparring in the executive council chamber. It was Warmington and Formella, and the heated dialogue begins at 1h21 min in this video.

Lawyer Whose Advice Probably Got a County Commission Sued is a Sununu Nominee for Superior Court
This Wednesday, the Executive Council will hear testimony on the nomination of Andrew Livernois to the State Superior Court. Sorry for the short notice. We just heard about it today. Before anyone says yes, perhaps they should consider this.
“What is the Executive Council?”
“What is the Executive Council?” was the title of a routine column written by the late Bernie Streeter about 30+ years ago for the 1590 Broadcaster, a now-defunct free newspaper in Nashua. Bernie Streeter was one of Dave Wheeler’s predecessors and held office in the early 90s before becoming the mayor.
Wheeler is On Notice (not that he wasn’t already)
You might already be familiar with my recent article, the open letter to Councilor Wheeler. Please refer to it for a list of some of his key transgressions against the will of his constituents and against NH. Today, one more thing can be added to his rap sheet.
The Revenge of the NH9?
The State of New Hampshire never had a case, but they clung (bitterly?) to the media opportunities created by a false insurrection narrative right here in the Granite State. By “they,” I mean the Republican Governor, his AG, and the Department of Injustice.
Will Sununu’s Manufactured “Insurrection” Terminate His Political Career?
October 13, 2021, is NH Governor Sununu’s manufactured “insurrection”. Hundreds of people peaceably assembled to vehemently oppose Sununu’s desire to accept a $27M grant to set up a NH covid tracking database that would be connected to a national database.
