Think of the Dos Equis guy because I don’t always agree with Osborne, but when I do, it’s because he said something good. In a recent tweet, he said, “Anyone else wonder why all the attention on the SNAP corporate welfare program and not the federal workers who are furloughed or working without pay?” I’ve … Read more
The idea that Democrats care about anything or anyone but themselves, and that does not include regular, everyday, registered Democrats, is absurd. Nothing they do or care about ends up improving their lives, care, or safety—quite the opposite. You may remember the deaths of a family by a foreign-born trucker who failed his written exam ten times. … Read more
I have found this recent government shutdown to be the most frustrating period in all my years of following politics. This current shutdown is not a situation that can be negotiated, for what the Democrats want is not open to discussion by the Republicans. The Democrats believe they have the leverage in this tug-of-war, and … Read more
The groomers and pedophiles have been allowed to spool out more than enough rhetorical rope… I started a research project last month, during which I suffered through the intolerable nonsense of a series of websites listing banned books in the United States. I won’t share the links because the internet age affords you tools to … Read more
There is a state law that says New Hampshire has to be the first primary in the presidential election process.

Scott Brown and John E. Sununu have something in common. They both appear to be deeply despised by factions of the eclectic New Hampshire Republican Party. More specifically, the libertarians who choose to run as Republicans (“Liberty Reps”) despise Brown, while MAGA-Republicans (populists) despise Sununu. Here is what a libertarian-influencer thinks of former Senator Brown: … Read more

The old adage about playing “good cop, bad cop” to elicit a result offers a metaphorical counterpart in an ongoing challenge to EPA approval processes for new chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Enacted during President Trump’s first administration to impose stricter oversight of new chemicals, TSCA may be defanged under his current … Read more
The Climate Cult’s entirely faith-based dogma, which includes the computer model Psalms, Book of Algore, and the Hockey Stick Scriptures of Mann (from which Mann Made Global Warming is derived). It fits the framework of a mythology (in every spiritual sense). Nothing about it has to be right because belief is based on faith, and … Read more
The state legislature has passed several laws this year that limit the ability of towns and cities to control zoning — for example, towns must allow multifamily residential development in commercially zoned areas where infrastructure exists. HB 577 (Chapter 197, 2025) Requires towns/cities to allow either an attached or a detached accessory dwelling unit (ADU) … Read more
We like to give the social-justice warriors at Netflix a hard Time, but Disney, as a platform, has lost a lot of credibility in the past decade, all because it let the #Wokeasaurus in the door. Its reimaging of the Star Wars universe may have resulted in some spectacular backgrounds and film-making innovations (something the … Read more
After decades of spewing – and funding — climate alarmist rhetoric of the most virulent kind, multi-billionaire Bill Gates shocked the Left by admitting what some of us have been saying all along: Yeah, the climate is changing (it does that), but it’s totally manageable and not a crisis. So, y’all just chill the heck … Read more

A month into the Schumer Shutdown, and Democrats are still trying to distract you from how full of shit they are. Oh look, Trump is destroying the White House (with donor money), which was a super cool narrative that gave the internet an excuse to point out that most Presidents do something (Barry added an … Read more

Groktober is coming to an end, and with it, those bothersome pumpkin meme graphics. What, next, one wonders, might replace it? November is filled with possibilities and Thanksgiving. Pilgrims, turkey, whatever you call the occupants, they eventually displaced. No matter, you’ll still get a meme or two hundred or whatever. . . . . . … Read more
Democratic Dysfunction, Obamacare’s Failures, and the Cost to Granite Staters Millions of families across America—and right here in New Hampshire—are feeling the consequences of Washington’s political dysfunction as the latest government shutdown stretches from days to weeks.
