Roper: Civil Unions Was “Jim Crow” for Same Sex Couples

It’s the twenty-fifth anniversary of Vermont passing the first-in-the-nation civil unions law back in 2000. Not marriage, mind, you. Something separate but supposedly equal. But if that were true, there would have been no need to pass another law legalizing gay marriage in 2009. So, why are politicians, journalists, and social justice warriors celebrating an … Read more

Bananas:  Blondi Loses Epstein Client List

Despite the United States government working overtime to ensure the safety of its citizens in Israel, a recent memo from the Federal Bureau of Investigation has alerted national law enforcement about the disappearance of beleaguered financier and scientific philanthropist Jeffrey Epstein’s long awaited client list which couldn’t be kept safe even on the desk of … Read more

Cardello: Put An Addition On The Big Democrat Tent

Hakeem Jeffries loses whatever credibility he has left whenever he opens his mouth. Whether delivering a marathon speech from the House floor or answering a leading question from a leftist member of the media with an anti-American agenda, Jeffries shows us that the Democrats are less about principles and more about personal and Party power. … Read more

Klar: US Farmers Get Tariff Boost on Tomatoes

President Donald Trump’s administration has terminated the US-Mexico Tomato Suspension Agreement, effective July 14, 2025, following decades of abuse by Mexican producers who “dump” tomatoes into the United States at below-market prices. American farmers have suffered significantly despite numerous efforts to re-negotiate the terms of the agreement. The termination is one of many efforts by the … Read more

MacDonald: Climate Dread Isn’t Dead

One of the narratives that circulates among eco-cultists is the pervasive fear that we’ve broken the planet and are doomed. It’s not true, but they’ve heard it so many times that its constant consumption has become part of their person. Their reality hinges on this lie being true. It is cultish, and why the movement … Read more

Bowman: On Birthright and Citizenship

With his typical attention to detail, President Trump has opened up a Supreme Court can of worms by questioning the jurisprudence that the Fourteenth Amendment has been responsible for producing for too long. As depicted with this recent rash of nationwide injunctions, it’s apparent that lower courts have joined up with the top court’s current … Read more

Ortolano: Ethics without Ethics in Nashua

In April 2025, a citizen, Fred Teeboom, filed an ethics complaint against Nashua Board of Aldermen President Lori Wilshire. The concern centered on her decision to appoint herself to the Pennichuck Corporation Board of Directors, a city-owned utility subject to Aldermanic oversight, without disclosing she would be paid $12,000 annually, discussing the inherent conflict of … Read more

MacDonald: Dems Chose Fraud Over Senior Citizens

One of the revelations from my most recent not-quite-a-podcast podcast interview with Phil Kerpen was the Medicaid fraud situation. There’s a lot of fraud, and the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB), now known as the One Big Beautiful Law (or the One Big Beautiful Act or OBBA), takes a chainsaw to numerous Medicare scams. First, … Read more

Nitzakhon: From my Jarhead Friend

The new CIA director has uncovered proof that the CIA had direct involvement in the “Russia, Russia, Russia” hoax that the left tried to pin on President Trump.  How much longer do we need to wait until we see some arrests? https://directorblue.substack.com/p/cia-declassifies-indictment-of-cia Same story from a different source: https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2025/07/02/cia-director-john-ratcliffe-declassifies-review-of-2016-intelligence-weaponization-and-post-election-intelligence-community-assessment A defector from China has openly … Read more

MacDonald: Trump Made Dems Demand Release of “Epstein Files”

Are There Other Tricks Up His Sleeve? I think it’s crazy for MAGA supporters to suggest breaking up the coalition over the Epstein Files FUBAR. They are not the beginning and the end of the elite’s international child sex trafficking cabal. Any list would be helpful in guilt-shaming globalist predators, but I’m not convinced it … Read more

Opinion: Malfeasance, Misfeasance, Inefficiency or Incapacity or Unfitness to Perform Duties

As a follow-up to my piece from January, which made awareness of a Library Trustee Candidate’s activism in the Transitioning Children space, otherwise known as legalized child abuse, I am sad to report that said candidate, Beth Labrecque Marrocco, was indeed elected as a Library Trustee for the Leach Library in Londonderry, NH.   (Of note, Liz … Read more
