PAYNE: A Silent Killer

Little babies in the womb since 1974 have been a major “enemy of the state.” Since “Post-Roe,” however, the state is permitting a new instrument of death to silently poison babies in the womb. The American Family Association (AFA) calls it “mail-order death.” Just mail in for the pills. Apparently, this is the abortion industry’s answer … Read more

RHODES: The Cult of Santa Claus (Part1)

The idea of the “cult of Santa Claus” has been on my mind for a long time, long before I ever tried to articulate it publicly. It began years ago during a conversation with one of my state legislators. He had become fixated on sending out surveys and polls to his constituents, asking what their … Read more

PAGE: Why I like Trump, Whatever John Bossange Says

Many Chronicle readers have taken umbrage at John Bossange’s recitation of alleged statements uttered by President Donald Trump that – Bossange and the original journalists say – demonstrate our Chief Executive is a racist, sexist, bigot.  They wonder why VDC even published it. I published Bossange’s commentary because 1) VDC is a free speech forum, not a conservative echo … Read more

HUYETT: How Maine Stole the Portsmouth Harbor Islands—and How to Take Them Back

Maine stole our land when we weren’t looking. The historical evidence is overwhelming and clear. For almost 300 years, the Granite State’s northern border ran down through the Piscataqua River, snaked across Maine’s Portsmouth Harbor shoreline, then bisected the Isles of Shoals. New Hampshire’s borders embraced the entire harbor, including Badger’s Island, Seavey’s Island, and … Read more

PAYNE: Has the President Changed, or Has the United Nations Changed?

On November 17th, the UN Security Council endorsed the Trump Peace plan for Gaza. Past Trump rhetoric, called the UN’s central strategy of control – climate change, “a great con job.” His past policy moves against globalism could be summed up as: “Trusting the UN is like ‘trusting a fox in the chicken house.’”  Restoring … Read more

OPINION: There is No “Chicken” Problem in Merrimack

The Proposed Ordinance is an unnecessary intrusion. Dear Councilors, fellow Merrimack residents, and interested members of the public. Since my last letter, I’ve had more time to reflect on the proposed chicken ordinance.  I stand behind every word of my last letter, and I’ve made it public for the sake of discussion. Still, I now … Read more

Unhinged Democrats

OPINION: Democrat Radicals Inside the Gates

We now have United States congressmen acting like bedeviled insurrectionists. They are actually implying that our military may not follow lawful federal orders issued by our Commander-in-Chief, because they suggest those orders could be illegal. It sure sounds like they are asking the intelligence community as well as the military to essentially overthrow Trump. Concurrently, … Read more

OPINION: Wake Up America! The Truth About Islam

DOES ISLAM TEACH TERRORISM? Democrats and  Republicans should be able to agree that people who believe in beating women, killing gays, and “Waging war upon the infidels who are your neighbors” (Koran 9:123) pose an extreme threat to our national security and cannot be assimilated into American society. The tenets of Islam are entirely and totally incompatible with the U.S. Constitution and Western … Read more

CLINE: The RGGI Trap

According to national media reports, Pennsylvania’s 2025 budget deal caused the state to “exit” RGGI. Media coverage also used the words “leave,” “quit” and “pull out” to describe Pennsylvania’s abandonment of RGGI. Pennsylvania, though, wasn’t actually a member of RGGI.  In 2019, then-Gov. Tom Wolf issued an executive order for his administration to adopt regulations consistent with … Read more

PAGE: Finger-Pointing Bernie Has Himself To Blame for Looming AI Power Crisis

Let’s talk about Senator Bernie Sanders, artificial intelligence, and—of course—blaming Donald Trump for America’s rising electricity rates. After spending his political career saying NO to large baseload power producers, Bernie Sanders now says there’s “not enough electricity to go around.” And—big surprise—he’s pointing the finger at the billionaires again.  In a letter dated November 10, … Read more

BRADLEY: The Capitalist & The Communist

The World, at least the USA and mainstream media, was aflutter last week when the Capitalist met the Communist (a self-described Democrat socialist). The expected fireworks never developed, and, instead, mutual respect was seen on TV, which stunned all the pseudo-intellectual commentators that plague our media. I could name the “NAMES” but that would be … Read more

OPINION: The Shady, Scurrilous  Benedict Arnolds of Our Time

Six elected Democrat legislators who are former military officers with privileged or intelligence backgrounds are eroding our American military chain-of-command culture and values by issuing scurrilous and mutinous comments.  Inciting rebellion by urging US service men and women to refuse “illegal” orders, “illegal” orders which they never identified, is punishable in any country’s military, especially … Read more
