A decade past, then-Governor Peter Shumlin, overwhelmed by the Obama open-borders-driven opioid crisis, promised to implement a plan to address this rising scourge. No, he didn’t demand Obama close the border and stop the drugs pouring in. He did what Democrats always do.

Vermont’s Culture – Or What’s Left of It.
Vermont once had, at least in my Normal Rockwell-esque memory, a sense of independence and a toe-hold on sanity. That place Calvin Coolidge called home. It is an image long since painted over by the political Left, replaced with a fawning portrait of Mao.
Bananas: Vermont Tells America “Don’t Kill Yourself, Let Us Do It For You”
The proverbial axiom “the only certainties in life are death and taxes” is no truer than in Vermont. Having become only the second state to pass a “right to death” bill since leftist penal colony Oregon did it back in 1994, Vermont is quickly becoming an end-of-life getaway for those wishing to fall into the … Read more
Follow-Up – Yes, Sununu Greeted Trump in New Hampshire at Least Once …
A few days ago, I asked if part-time Republican governor Sununu had ever made an effort to greet President Trump when he came to New Hampshire. A sincere question to which I received an answer. Yes.
Crime and Punishment

Is This Silence Violence? Democrats have Nothing to Say About Conviction of Dem Donor Ed Buck (For the Overdose Deaths of Two Gay Black Men)
Did I miss it? The press release from gay NH Democrat State Party Chair Ray Buckley quoting Ray his thoughts on a white guy getting convinced in the overdose deaths of two gay black men? No? Is that because the white guy is a prominent Democrat donor?
It’s Not the NH State Motto “Kids” Need to Fear, It’s New Hampshire Democrats.
If you’d like a window into the twisted reality of the Leftist mind, you need to look no further than this contrast. After a year of giving thugs room to destroy, locking people down, and saying things like silence is violence, Democrats want you to believe a state motto could increase suicides.
George Floyd had 11 ng/mL of fentanyl in his blood – It can be Lethal at 5 ng/mL
At the time of his arrest, career criminal George Floyd had a significant amount of Fentanyl in his blood. Newly leaked bodycam footage shows disturbing details. He couldn’t breathe long before he ended up on the asphalt.
Opiate Regulations – it now becomes personal
Alternate title: Penalized for doing the right thing. TMEW had complete knee replacement surgery last week given that all of the cartilage was completely gone. Bone on bone on the kneecap (femur and tibia); it’s a wonder that she waited this long to have it. Oh wait! I already know why – she hates to see … Read more
Big Pharma Is Not Responsible for the Addiction and Overdose Crisis
New Hampshire is always looking for jackpot justice and milking large corporations for one-time payouts. It is disgusting — another hidden tax on consumers. MBTE contamination was one such case, and opioids are the next big payoff, but should they pay?
This Massachusetts Sanctuary City is Still a Drug Hub Poisoning New Hampshire
Eighteen months ago, the Feds busted up a massive drug ring operating out of Lawrence, Mass. Gov. Sununu and President Trump both named Lawrence which coughed up dozens of indictments cementing the sanctuary city as a drug hub. Well, it’s happened again.
Safe Station in Manchester Needs to be Reevaluated
Manchester’s Safe Station initiative has always drawn these kinds of numbers of people from out of the city. This is nothing new. What is concerning, however, is that it appears as if the state’s program might actually be referring people to the city.
MoveOn Wants You To Attend a Presidents Day Protest against Trump’s fake emergency
You have to check out this title from MoveON.org’s latest outrage email. “Attend a Presidents Day Protest against Trump’s fake emergency.” Fake emergency? How much money have Democrats and government asked for to address the four-year-long drug crisis? Sorry, the epidemic?

As Central American Caravan Heads to U.S Guatemala Arrests 100 ISIS Terrorists
It’s no secret that the porous southern border has been used to get terrorists into the United States. Narco-terrorists bring drugs to gangs in sanctuary cities like Lawerence, Massachusetts. That poison kills hundreds annually here in New Hampshire. It naturally follows that if they the cartels can get their people in so can Islamofascists like those … Read more

New Hampshire Democrats Demand More Money For A Problem They Don’t Want to Solve
New Hampshire is getting another $3.1 Million to combat the opioid crisis. US News is reporting that New Hampshire’s All Gurl Delegation, Democrat x four, says it is not enough.
New Hampshire’s delegation had urged President Donald Trump’s administration to revise the formula used to allocate funding so it prioritizes states like New Hampshire that are hardest hit by the crisis. But that didn’t happen.
This coming from a gaggle of progressive geese with no real interest in solving “the problem.”
Trump Points to Lawrence MA as Source Of NH’s Opioid Problem NECN Ignores Its Own Reporting
President Trump visited New Hampshire today to talk about the opioid crisis and while doing so pointed to Lawrence Massachusetts as the hub of the Granite State’s ills; taking a legitimate shot at Sanctuary Cities as part of the problem.
