Four months ago, I published a piece detailing how St. Joseph Hospital in Nashua, NH, had been captured by the trans agenda. I shared their videos promoting the trans agenda, their T-shirts promoting the trans agenda, their medical records system that requires patients to fill in nonsensical fields like “Sex Assigned at Birth” and “Gender … Read more

To modernize New Hampshire labor laws, legislators are addressing two outdated statutory … Read more
Ever since Plymouth Rock, immigrants have routinely sought our shores. This universal recognition of what America has to offer is a testament to what we, the American-born citizens, usually take for granted. Also unmistakable has been the surge in immigrants seeking American refuge following WWII. Frankly speaking, this has been due to the fact that … Read more

It was a night of stark contrasts as hundreds of believers gathered under a tent in a park, in the shadows of the Maine Capitol building, to pray for Maine and to formally ask for help from the Divine One, Jesus Christ.

It’s not huge news but following recent content on a potential shift away from four-year schools toward trades and other learning investments, it adds some weight to the argument. What argument? The progressive university laundromat is falling on tough times. Exchanging massive debt for a useless degree and no real-world skills is losing its appeal. … Read more

Democrats thought DOGE was a threat to the System? It was and still is. It didn’t go anywhere. The same tech is in use for other means, and that probably includes the new anti-fraud initiative ordered by Trump and led by JD Vance. The NGO fraud was bad, and there’s plenty more of that. ACT … Read more

For a man that the Democrats say is unfit for office and in severe mental decline, Donald Trump is proving to be an incredible manipulator and is recalibrating the geopolitical makeup of the Globe with a surgeon’s precision. Democrats are mistaking the fact that they do not understand the level at which Trump and his … Read more
You might be able to pass it off as another example of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Or the progressive knee-jerk reaction that requires them to want the opposite of anything and everything the Trump Administration promotes. Pregnant women should be careful with Tylenol, as it might affect their unborn baby. That’s them, so when Secretary Kennedy … Read more
