We are approaching the first anniversary of “Two Weeks to Flatten the Curve.™” But before that, we have the first anniversary of the first “confirmed case” of coronavirus in New Hampshire. That’s two weeks from today, on March 2nd.

Rep Kris Schultz Wants Schools to Teach White Kids That They Are Inherently Racist
HB 544 would ban “CRT,” which stands for Critical Race Theory in New Hampshire. As I explained in September of last year: Essentially, “critical race theory” describes the pseudoscientific concept that all people with white skin are inherently racists and are not even aware of it because they have “internalized” their “racial superiority” and, consequently, … Read more
The “Windham Incident” – NH’s “GOP” House and Senate and Governor are Ducking Every Bit as Much as the Attorney General
At this moment, four of the top five stories on this blog involve the “Windham Incident”. Steve’s from last November, which has been updated with a plausible explanation: [Update] Sources cite the possibility that roughly 300 voters chose to vote without wearing a mask so they were segregated when they voted. That these likely Republican … Read more
How Do New Hampshire’s “Clean Elections™” Fare Against the Dirty States?
How close is New Hampshire to the company of the six dirty states that worked in unison to steal the 2020 Presidential Election? Well, let’s see. First, New Hampshire has same-day voter registration, which begs for abuse.
Remote “School-Yard” Bully Massachusetts Lands MA and NH at the US Supreme Court
Massachusetts is imposing Massachusetts income taxes on New Hampshire residents when they neither reside nor “work” in Massachusetts. It seems intuitively obvious Massachusetts is overreaching. But Massachusetts downplays the seriousness of New Hampshire’s claim in three ways.
I Want This: State Legislature Proposes Allowing AG to Nullify Biden’s Executive Orders
A few weeks ago, I suggested making New Hampshire a 2A Sanctuary State. Rumor has it there is an interest in the idea. Yes, both the Federal Constitution and our own already do that, but sometimes you need a thing, like giving the State AG Power to Nullify Federal Executive Orders.
School Funding: Lower Taxes, Same Student Achievement
If you had the Triangle of Light (from Tomb Raider), you could just go back in time to 1998, the year of the Claremont II decision. You don’t have that, but you have something almost as good — a filing cabinet.
What Is So Hard About Doing the Right Thing by Our Elections in NH?
The Windham Ballot Scandal has provided an excellent opportunity to learn from the 300-vote undercount of four Republican candidates for the NH House of Representatives.
Dear Chris Sununu … Don’t Whiz On My Leg And Tell Me It’s Raining
So there was this a few days ago from New Hampshire’s Sun-King: First of all, we have known this for months. More specifically, many countries in Europe and many States returned to in-person, classroom learning months ago. Sununu is gaslighting us when he claims the “science” only now is telling us that classrooms are not … Read more
Education Savings Accounts and a “Broad-Based” Tax
So I have read that Education Savings Accounts are going to lead to a “broad-based” tax because the cost may rise to $103 million. Sounds like a lot of money … until you look at the State budget. So here’s a schematic of the current budget: As a percentage of New Hampshire’s $6.7 billion budget … Read more
Mental Health: Creating More Bureaucracy Instead of Treating Children
Do you want another bureaucratic position created at the New Hampshire Department of Education? One that would work with school counselors but not treat the children who desperately need services?
Arizona Senate Hires Independent Firm for Forensic Election Audit
Election “related news” has faded a bit unless you are convinced Biden is an actor working on an Oval Office Sound Stage. But there’s still news to be had about a point I’ve made a few times on the radio and in personal conversations. States need to fix their elections, or Democrats will never lose again.
CACR3 – Uninformed and Unnecessary
So there is a proposed constitutional amendment that would remove the Blaine language from the State Constitution. The Blaine language is found in Article 83 and provides that the State may not financially support religious schools: [Art.] 83. [Encouragement of Literature, etc.; Control of Corporations, Monopolies, etc.] … no money raised by taxation shall ever be … Read more
The Independent Redistricting Commission Bill (SB 80) is Racist
THIS is the link to the full bill. I would like to draw your attention to this provision: 662-B:6 Redistricting Criteria. I. The commission shall establish single or multi-member districts for the New Hampshire county commissions, house of representatives, and single member districts for the New Hampshire senate, executive council, and United States representative, using … Read more
Mass Flavored Cigarette Ban Continues to Flood NH With New Revenue
On June 1st of 2020, the busy-bodies in the Bay State banned menthol-flavored cigarettes. Here in the Granite State, we said thank you. Before summer was over, NH had added over 16 million in new revenue as a result. The latest figures push that to over 28 million in six months.
Hey, NH Executive Council! We Are Here! We Are Here! We Are Here!
This is the call to the “governed” whose rights our NH State Constitution was written to protect. Those elected to represent us seem ignorant of the document they swore to protect and defend when accepting their role in the State government.
It Is Time for New Hampshire To Stop Adding Fluoride to Public Drinking Water
Municipal water fluoridation is a form of forced medicating by majority rule. If 51% of a community votes in favor of water fluoridation, the minority who don’t want fluoridated water have no choice but to purchase expensive filtration systems to remove fluoride, travel to collect spring water, or purchase unfluoridated bottled water.
Using This Logic We’ll Have to Start Giving Democrats Seats on the NHGOP Exec. Committee.
The NHGOP Executive Committee has become something of an affirmative action project. They keep giving seats to groups, but they can’t give a seat to every group, so how do you get there from here? Well, the Log Cabin Republicans “invested” at least 50,000.00 dollars to buy a seat.
Does New Hampshire Need a Third Party?
This: The history of third Parties … in Presidential races … is (1) that they allow the Democrat to roll up an electoral college landslide without winning a majority of the vote and (2) they have no staying power. The most recent example was Ross Perot. Perot allowed Bill Clinton to win 370 electoral votes … Read more
