Not so Easy Button

Bowman: Easy Doesn’t Teach

I’m so old that I can recall how Europeans used to frown over America’s inhibitions regarding sexuality. Sadly, such a critique is no longer voiced. My memory was jolted from a brief review in John Stormer’s 1998 best seller, None Dare Call It Education. Although experienced by those of my age set, Stormer’s concise listing … Read more

Smith: Counseling For That Narcissism, Rep Ming?

Delusions of grandeur are high on the diagnostic checklist for Narcissism.  Just look at the DSM-3-R or any other authority on such matters.  Former Rep Ming has shown similar behaviors during last year’s campaign season, such as claiming to be the first Asian rep when it simply wasn’t true.  Now he’s outdone himself in his … Read more

Roper: Those Polluting EVs….

In my recent “Cage Match Conversation” with fellow WDEV radio host Kevin Ellis (Great debate, check out the podcast!), the subject of electric vehicles and the recent decision by Congress to end the EPA’s ability to regulate tailpipe CO2 emissions as pollutants came up. I pointed out the reason for this policy change is that … Read more

Opinion: Hold Dog Owners Criminally Accountable in New Hampshire

This isn’t a fluff piece about menacing mutts—it’s a demand for justice. When dangerous dogs hurt people, it’s not a neighborly dog problem—it’s a community safety issue ripe for the New Hampshire Legislature to own up to. 1. Current Law Doesn’t Cut It: Civil Only? Not Enough Under RSA 466:19, New Hampshire imposes strict civil liability … Read more

MacDonald: Apple, Republicans, Democrats, and America

Apples don’t have a nut to crack, but Trump figured it out anyway. After applying a lot of pressure and signaling that he’d never back down, Apple promised to increase its total 4-year investment in America to $600 billion. Why? It may be “cheaper” than pandering (and enriching) human rights violators like China in exchange … Read more

Cardello: Marriage And Homeownership No Longer A Goal

Not so many years ago, it was a natural progression to graduate from high school, enter the military or college, get married, buy a house, have children, and roll the dice that all worked out. You had a rewarding life, with a comfortable retirement. It was all part of the American Dream that was still … Read more

Gauthier: Ayotte Slams the Door

Illegal Alien Drivers’ Licenses No Good in New Hampshire Kelly Ayotte just made it crystal clear: if you’re in this country illegally and holding one of those feel-good, law-dodging licenses from Vermont or California, you better keep on driving, right out of New Hampshire. She signed the bill. She dropped the gavel. And with that … Read more

MacDonald: Autopen Use Began 5 Days Into The Biden Presidency

Here’s a story that’s not going away. The “who was running the Biden White House” catastrophe, and what’s all this then with the autopen. Democrats have been dismissive, but as the below testimony confirms, if you are all about defending The DemocracyTM, Executive actions require the Chief Executive to sign things, not some device mimicking … Read more

Klar: Sparks Fly in Harvard v. Trump Legal Face-off

A courtroom battle between the president and Harvard University has reached a dramatic apex. The Trump administration seeks to terminate potentially billions of dollars in federal grants to Harvard University, which has, in turn, sued to compel the government to pay.

MacDonald: Reader Rant – WTF is Up With Canada?

For successive years, the Great White North has, with regularity, cast vast clouds of woodsmoke across the northeastern United States. I’ve lived in New England for 35 years, and in the northeast my entire life. We never had this. It is new, as in recent, and it reeks, smokes, and stinks of incompetence. Forest fires … Read more

MacDonald: Remember, Dems Demanded This!

When Team Trump decided to announce there was nothing to see in the Epstein files, long-game shenanigans were a strong contender. The problem, or maybe this was deliberate too, was how badly they claimed there was nothing to see regarding the Epstein Files. It was very B-Team, but with a patina of “I bet they … Read more
