The Republican Party is on a mission, as in every election cycle, to equate civility with unity. Let’s not say negative things about those other GOP candidates lest we spark a civil war and create division. They want us to talk about our shared vision as if we had one.

Republicans Fiscally Irresponsible Act
The political and financial class breathed a sigh of relief when Congress passed the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023. The bill suspends the debt ceiling for two years, thus avoiding the establishment’s nightmare of a government default on its debt. Rather, it allows the government to continue adding trillions of dollars of debt that will … Read more
We Do Not Need Comfortable, We Need Strength

Screw The Poor: Proof that Democrats Are The Party of The Rich
For decades, the Democrats called themselves the “Party for the Poor,” the “Party of the common folks,” and the “Party of the Working People.” The last was meant to be the blue-collar workers in the fields, mines, and factories. Those who toiled but not in the middle to C-level offices.
Republicans Must Not Fold On Debt Ceiling
We are approaching the deadline for our debt ceiling. This deadline is a moving date. Janet Yellen estimates the checkbook balance will be red on or about June 1. Experts and Yellen is not in that group, think June 8 is more realistic.
Kamala is the Key to a Republican Presidential Win
The Democrats are placing all their bets on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris winning re-election in 2024. Their approval ratings continue to plummet, and both will easily be below 35% by the end of this year. These are not precisely the numbers to run a re-election campaign on.

NH GOP CommitteeGal Juliana Bergeron: ‘There Are People’ in the (GOP) Who ‘Want to Put Women Back into the 1960s’
NHGOP Committeeperson Juliana Bergeron is a Never-Trumper GOPe stooge and RINO extraordinaire, so when she claims that there are people in the Republican Party that want to put women back into the 1960s, I think she should name some names.

Clucker Commission Unanimous-Sununu Worst Republican
The CLUCKER COMMISSION-consisting of whatever of my coop was present, plus two bluebirds that forgot to fly south for winter-held and emergency session three days ago. I have no idea why. I think they forgot that each year they award the completely useless, “doesn’t even have bragging rights” award for the person who is the … Read more
“We Might Do Well to Take a Similar Approach toward Elected Officials”

Democrat PAC Citizens for Belknap Finished Its Take over of the Belknap County Republicans – Part 2

Tucker Carlson on the Speaker Kerfuffle in the US House – “It Should Be Hard to Become Speaker of the House”
I’ve weighed in on this US House Speaker thingamabob at NHJournal and on these pages, and I’m not in the minority. Not among Groksters or rank-and-file Republicans. It’s not only not embarrassing, but most don’t believe McCarthy should be the House Speaker. This means they are standing with the holdouts in Congress or at least the idea of them.
Republicans Turn a Win Into an Embarrassment

The Republicans Who Sold Us Out for $1.7T
