MACDONALD: The President is Hospitalized Hoax

April 6, 2026 Steve MacDonald

I want to say I saw the first X post on this Friday night, and sure, news breaks on X all the time, but it is usually linked to something you can actually put your virtual hands on.

Granite Post News is “Part of a Coordinated Effort With Deep Ties to Democratic Political Operatives”

October 10, 2024July 10, 2024 Steve MacDonald

So-called independent web portals keep popping up in New Hampshire. They are well funded with professional staff, but try not to look it because they are actually partisan political fronts pretending to be unbiased, disinterested observers. They want you to trust them.

Kevin Landrigan … A “Reporter” Who Speaks The Language Of The Left

June 7, 2024 Ed Mosca

Kevin Landrigan … a “reporter” who works for the “conservative” Union Leader and who speaks the language of the Left. Males (biological males for you bitter-clingers when you prefer redundancy) playing girls’ sports are “reported” as “trans girls.” That is NOT reporting that is advocating:

NewsGuard Unintentionally Helps Us Identify the Real™ Misinformation Media …

February 11, 2024 Steve MacDonald

The beauty of a blatantly biased government-funded project like NewsGuard is that we can measure how much we can trust any news source they’ve audited by reversing what the scores mean. The closer you get to zero, the more likely the content is not controlled by or at least aping the uniparty line.

Sun-King Sununu Scolds His Subjects … You Embarrassed Me By Cheering For Trump

May 13, 2023 Ed Mosca

The arrogance of Sun-King Sununu knows no bounds. He really does consider himself anointed by some woke-deity or deities rather than an elected public servant. Here he is scolding his subjects … we’re not citizens to Sun-King, but subjects … for “embarrassing” him by cheering for Trump at the CNN “town hall.” And … by … Read more

The CDC’s Deep Gay Fake

May 6, 2023 Steve MacDonald

The Left invented the term fake news to target alternative media, and then Donald Trump stole it and beat them with it mercilessly. Next up was deep fakes, “news” like video or similar that was so fake you needed corporate media or Big Tech to find the truth.

Fake, Like the Crisis She Peddles – Watch Greta Thunberg’s Staged “Arrest” in Germany

January 19, 2023 Steve MacDonald

Donald Trump was right about the risks of Germany relying on Russia for energy, and now they need to burn a lot of coal. Muppet Greta and the other climate muppets staged a protest at a town that will be leveled because … Donald Trump was right.

We have so many major problems that need IMMEDIATE attention … INFLATION, RECESSION, OPEN BORDERS, CRT, GROOMING, FENTANYL, CRIME, THREAT OF NUCLEAR WAR WITH RUSSIA … but what issue does Adam Sexton choose to highlight in CD-1 … social security FIFTY years from now:

NHGOP Candidates Should Do What JD Vance Did When WMUR Rigs The Debate

October 11, 2022 Ed Mosca

If I had my druthers the NHGOP candidates would boycott the WMUR “debates” because these “debates” are rigged to help the Democrats. Assuming they don’t, they need to be prepared when Adam Sexton and the other Democrat-activists masquerading as moderators try to distract from the devastation caused by the policies that New Hampshire’s incumbent Democrats … Read more

Hey Adam Sexton … Why Did You Leave This Out Of Your CD-1 “Coverage” Of Social Security?

October 11, 2022 Ed Mosca

I posted earlier about WMUR … Adam Sexton, more specifically … helping the Chris Pappas campaign deflect from the issues that the voters rank as their top concerns: WMUR Rigging The CD-1 Election. Sexton is actually engaging in multiple levels of bias.

If NH has One of David Brock’s Dem Funded ‘Fake News Sites,’ Which One Is It?

October 11, 2022October 10, 2022 Steve MacDonald

Here’s another crowd-sourced problem with which our readers can wrestle. Everywhere I look, I see the exact same news about how David Brock (Media Matters and a million other well-funded Left-wing Projects) created a network of at least 51 fake news sites that ape left-wing stories in swing states.

NHPR’s Josh Rogers Is A Threat To Our Democracy

September 25, 2022September 24, 2022 Ed Mosca

I mentioned Josh Rogers’ hit-piece on Don Bolduc in my post Massive Unforced Mistake By Don Bolduc. Rogers’ hit-piece … and another subsequent hit-piece by Rogers on Bolduc … merit a post of their own because Rogers is such a fount of misinformation that he represents a threat to the democratic process. Let’s start with … Read more

Steve Stepanek and Ronna McDaniel Are Looking Pretty Useless Right About Now

September 18, 2022 Ed Mosca

FAKE NEWS: Associated Press Reporter Holly Ramer LIES About NH’s Abortion Law

June 30, 2022 Ed Mosca

NH-NeverTrump Journal recently held a debate for the GOP U.S. Senate primary. Associated Press reporter Holly Ramer’s write-up focused nearly exclusively on abortion (probably around 75%), with the remainder primarily devoted to the recent “bipartisan” federal red-flag law legislation.

Does Sotomayor Not Trust The Science?

January 20, 2022 Op-Ed

Throughout the pandemic, our ruling class has demanded that the vast majority take unprecedented steps to protect the minute minority.
