2023: NH Ranked Safest State in the Nation, Again!
I wasn’t looking for any recent state rankings or research on crime and safety, but Massachusetts has responded to the Bruen decisions with restrictive legislation meant to “display an unwavering commitment to ensuring that Massachusetts remains one of the safest states in the country.”
Massachusetts Has a Problem But It’s Bigger Than the Right to Shelter Law
I haven’t read the law, so I can’t say for sure, but I’d bet money that there is no right to shelter in the event of criminal activity or fraud. Illegals, regardless of how they came to you, are not legal, even when you call them migrants.
Pulpit Polity – One of Thomas Jefferson’s Revolutionary Inspirations
There were so many important voices during the Revolution that founded our great country. Politicians, Lawyers, Doctors, and, of course, Clergymen! In fact, the brightest stars of the Revolution were the voices of ardent clergymen whose hearts set on freedom for all men and whose tongues were swords of truth to set the captives free!
The Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission is … Out of Control
Would you be surprised to discover that a commission in Massachusetts might have devolved into a vindictive, self-enriching trainwreck with no transparency? Of course not; this is Massachusetts.
Massachusetts Illegal Alien State of Emergency Update: Healey Calls Up the National Guard!
Less than a month ago, Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey declared a state of emergency. The problem? Progressive policy met reality on her doorstep: more illegal aliens than she knows what to do with, so they’ve been stuffing them into local shelters, hotels, and motels.
Bureaucrats ‘Foster’ Anti-Religious Bigotry
Throw out logic and reason, and you can begin to understand the rules of the new Woke world—case in point. A couple in Massachusetts has been denied the right to foster a child because of their Catholic beliefs and views on the LGBTQ lifestyle.
Massachusetts Has a State of Emergency but It Is Not the One They Think …
When I first moved to New Hampshire 33 years ago – yes, I predate the Free Staters, the “joke” went like this. The Granite State didn’t have many folks on unemployment or welfare because they bussed them to Massachusetts, where the benefits were better.
Trespassing, Sage, Reparations, and Time…
The Left’s systemic guilt over how badly they continue to treat people of color has driven them to the only obvious solution. Make you pay for it. And that makes sense. Using people to advance their agenda is inherent in the ideology, and buying people off gets things done.
Don’t Invite Destruction Into Our State by Legalizing Recreational Marijuana
House Bill 639, to legalize the sale of recreational marijuana in New Hampshire, is being considered by the NH Senate Judiciary Committee and the following was my testimony this week in opposition to the bill.

Massachusetts and Maine Embrace More Potemkin Energy
Grigory Potemkin is famous for allegedly erecting fake towns that appeared accurate when viewed from a distance. As the new governor of Crimea, he wanted to please his empress (with whom he was intimately engaged). Fast forward about 140 years, and we find ourselves with something similar.
Massachusetts Helps New Hampshire Widen Its Advantage
Yesterday I mentioned Vermont and its habit of making New Hampshire more desirable but let’s not forget Massachusetts, a leader in advancing the New Hampshire Advantage. Effective January first, it is enforcing a new tax on millionaires that could benefit the Granite State.
Why Bostonians Shouldn’t Vote Maura Healey for Governor
The good news is that the current governor of the Bay State, Charlie Baker, decided not to run for another term. The nice news is that a Republican named Geoff Diehl is running and his “Lieutenant governor” running mate is Leah Cole Allen, a nurse. She got fired from her hospital for not taking the vax.
Biden DOJ Drops Charges on Judge Who Helped Fugitive Escape Federal Custody
Do you remember Shelly Joseph? She’s the Massachusetts judge who helped an illegal alien escape deportation in 2019. With an ICE agent waiting outside her courtroom, Judge Joseph allowed another court officer to escort the fugitive through her chambers to escape. Biden’s DOJ just dropped all the charges.
Massachusetts and Vermont Poised to Adopt California’s EV Only Mandate and That’s Bad for New Hampshire
To borrow from Forrest Gump, stupid is as stupid does, but that’s not all there is to say about California’s Vehicle emissions standards or why Vermont and Massachusetts (along with 15 other states) are poised to adopt them and an Electric Vehicle mandate.
Unvaccinated State Troopers Who Lost Their Jobs Lose Carry Permits Too
If you worked for the State of Massachusetts during the so-called pandemic, you were ordered to get “vaccinated.” If you refused to join Jab Club, you could lose your job. But how about losing your job and your license to carry a firearm, and your guns?
Dartmouth (Not that One) Votes to Keep Indian Mascot
If you read the headline “Dartmouth votes to keep ‘Dartmouth Indian’ Mascot,” you might feel a brief sense of cultural vertigo. Dartmouth? Keeps Indian Mascot. Whahhht? Relax, it’s not that Dartmouth.
