In December of 2018, Project Veritas won a significant court battle in Massachusetts. Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 272, § 99 (“Section 99”) placed a chilling effect on first amendment rights. Veritas challenged it and won. So, why are they back in court today?
Politicians in states all around New England think they are economic geniuses. They know how much an hour of labor is worth for every job, everywhere? No! They don’t. But that hubris is New Hampshire’s gain as the New Year looms, and they force the cost of labor higher.
The Boston Herald has a piece lamenting the poor performance of Massachusetts’ leaders. New Hampshire continues to dominate the region economically and strategically while the Bay State looks for ways to do worse.

Looking for the perfect gift to give your Democrat legislator this holiday season? A gas tax increase makes a great gift that keeps on giving. But how about two of them?

Aftermarket vaping cartridges have been making people ill. Some have died. Massachusetts responded by banning the sale of vaping products in the State for four months. While some are filing lawsuits and staging protests cross border sales in New Hampshire are up. Way up.
Republican Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker has done what we expect a liberal to do. Use a handful of harm to destroy an entire sector of an industry for which the progressives already had it out. He banned vaping state-wide. My response? Shop in New Hampshire.
