I’m sorry, but I can’t help myself. Democrats dropped a photo of Trump with a bunch of adult women, blocked out their faces, then accused him of getting “caught” in an Epstein photo dump with underage girls. You’ll probably know the details by now—adult women. No Epstein. And Mr. Trump was reported to be a … Read more
In 1968, our state constitution was radically amended. Voters were not fully informed of the consequences of the proposed changes. The voters’ guide said the amendment would “remove obsolete sectarian references.” There were exactly four sectarian terms (evangelical, Deity, protestant, and Christians), yet 140 words were removed from Art. 6 P.1 of the NH Constitution … Read more

The savage massacres at Bondi Beach in Sydney and the brutal shootout in Stockton, California, are just the latest bloody chapters in Islam’s unrelenting war to wipe the Jews off the map.

Whenever I see legislation sponsored by Rep. Hope Damon, I wonder if she’s trying to be sneaky or if she’s just stupid. For example, not too long ago, Damon was prime sponsor on a bill to require homeschooled students to take standardized tests. The bill was so badly drafted, it provoked 500 independent home education … Read more
The expulsion of Jewish model Miriam Mattova from a Toronto Uber – not for her fare, but for her faith – is more than an act of raw antisemitism. It is a siren blaring at the heart of the modern Gig Economy. The driver’s alleged declaration, “I don’t drive Jews,” is a moral crisis that is being systematically laundered … Read more
This week on GrokTALK!, it’s more on the affordability narrative and one of the best examples, from sea to “rising” sea, why a Democrat (any Democrat) can only make our lives more unaffordable. “Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire.” – Gustav Mahler Speakers’ opinions are their own and may not … Read more
One of the Handmaiden Media’s superpowers is its relentless adherence to the narrative. Take Electric Vehicles, for Example. Emma Taggert is reputed to be an economics reporter with The Telegraph, which could mean a lot of things, including that she doesn’t actually know anything about Economics. Not really. Sure, she knows the bronzed white-tower university-approved … Read more
There is a particular kind of political jiu-jitsu that shows up every session in Concord: take a word conservatives like, twist it 15 degrees, and use it to do something conservatives should hate. HB1512 is that move. The bill would let a town hold a referendum to decide whether families in that town may access … Read more

Pay attention if you or someone you know votes there because their rep (one of them) is Keith Ammon and Denise is their Senator. December 16 is their mutual birthday. What do you give them? Keith Ammon has an excellent record, which includes … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, Joe Biden” is having trouble raising money for a Presidential Library, but if he gets one, as tiny as it will likely be, I have some suggestions for titles to put on the shelves. Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel if the embedded video does not load. Links: Speakers’ opinions … Read more
Anyone who’s been paying attention to the advocates for electrifying our economy – everything from cars and trucks to home heating – you have heard over and over again that fossil fuel prices are “volatile,” and yada yada yada (for the Seinfeld fans) therefore bad. As an example (the only example they offer as it … Read more
As a football fan, the Army-Navy game does not always live up to its hype. The teams are not usually outstanding, as, let’s face it, football is not why these athletes are here. This yearly event is a ritual in which the athletes representing two of our service academies get together to play for bragging … Read more
This week, on the Elsa Kurt Show, we dig into whether unsealing the Epstein files can restore trust without real accountability and why the release may disappoint. We debate Supreme Court ethics, the NDAA’s priorities, and the risks of releasing sensitive drone footage in the AI era, then pivot to campus speech, Texas politics, media … Read more
The breadth and depth of the fraud in government programs is the key to winning every debate about cutting the programs that waste all your money.

Maybe it is old-school thinking that people who run for office at any level, but especially the President, should be from the best and brightest of Americans.
