More Nashua Mayoral Malfeasance?

November 21, 2024November 21, 2024 Laurie Ortolano

Contracted legal fee agreements are approved by the Mayor and require no approval of the Board of Aldermen (BOA). The purchasing policy does not require the Finance Committee or Board of Aldermen to approve legal services above $25,000.

Trump Won More Than Just the White House

November 18, 2024 John Klar

The federal prosecution against former (and now future) President Donald Trump were extinguished on election night, 2024. Even the relentless Jack Smith conceded his prosecutorial goose was cooked, preparing to withdraw his voluminous election-eve filings against the Donald given the futility of further proceedings.

NH Mayor: No “Free Speech” On His Flagpole!

October 11, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Democrat Mayor Jim Donchess of Nashua has changed the city’s policy regarding the flagpoles in front of city hall. Where they were once willing to allow the public to petition to fly a flag, that policy is no longer. The city will fly the flags it likes, and that’s the end of it. We predicted … Read more

A Sneak Peek At What Marcy Kelley May Have Invited Upon Bow Taxpayers

October 4, 2024October 4, 2024 Steve MacDonald

The Bow-Dunbarton School district has a liberal privilege problem. For the unfamiliar, Liberal Privilege is a lot like radical Islam.

Here are a few … Read more

Nashua Sued in Federal Court for Viewpoint Discrimination

September 7, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Regular readers will know that the Donchess regime in Nashua is very selective about the flags it allows on the citizen’s pole—almost, dare I say, partisan in its rejection. Most recently, Stephen and Beth Scaer (who both write for GraniteGrok) asked the city to fly the de-trans flag. It was rejected, and an appeal to … Read more

Utah Wants Its Land Back From The Feds

August 27, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Every few years, we get a spike in stories about how the Federal Government controls vast swathes of land in supposedly sovereign states. This control, exerted as part of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act, prevents states from utilizing their own land, and Utah has had enough of that. Utah’s lawsuit contends that the Bureau of Land … Read more

Lawyers Suing Lawyers In Maine for Violating the First Amendment

August 13, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Forty years ago, give or take, the State of Maine created a program whose purpose was to create a slush fund to provide legal services to people who could not afford them.

Another Shopping Trip for NH Attorneys

September 20, 2024August 1, 2024 Claire Best

There is concern about the shortfall in funds needed for the complainants of YDC sexual abuse. Please bear in mind that there does not seem to be any watchdog to vet the attorneys and which claims are real, which claims are false, and which claims are exaggerated. We want to thank Claire Best for this … Read more

“Please, Sue Us!”

July 27, 2024 Rob Roper

Of course, we knew this was coming. In fact, they told us so.

We Need An Adult To Intervene In New York

March 21, 2024 Ray Cardello

We need someone to step up in New York City to end this childish play for attention by corrupt, power-hungry State Attorney General Letitia James and the cartoon figure Judge Arthur Engoron. This mockery of justice has gone on too long and is now a threat to future businesses operating in New York or even this country.

February 6, 2024 Steve MacDonald

But Is It Unconstitutional in New Hampshire?

November 12, 2023 Steve MacDonald

Breaking: You Can Probably Sue Pfizer Over That Tainted mRNA COVID Vaccine

October 22, 2023 Steve MacDonald

I think we’ve been clear about this. The immunity protections given to Pfizer by the government were never genuine, and the people handing them out knew that. And that while the Pfeds would cover for their own, the rest were on their own. That day may have arrived.

November 18, 2024September 4, 2023 Steve MacDonald

We’ve explained why Ivermectin had to be beaten down. The Public Health Industrial Complex could never have imposed the vaccine plan if it was a viable treatment. Two years later, the Davids continue to fight Goliath, and Ivermectin has notched a few wins.
