Title IX Month

MacDonald: Celebrate Title IX Month!

Pride Month is a sex-cultural phenomenon, a social construct that, in some dystopian future, would be subverted and changed. Not the name. It’d still be pride month, but instead of being proud to share your obsession with your own sexuality or the virtue signal of forcing others to celebrate someone else’s, it’d be some other … Read more

Opinion: Vaping Madness at the FDA

“For the children.” That is a go-to justification for politicians and bureaucrats seeking to infringe on individual rights. It was on display last week in the final minutes of the testimony of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Marty Makary before a subcommittee of the Senate Appropriations Committee. Makary was exaggerating the extent of vaping among high … Read more

Roper: Vermont’s Insane 9.1 Billion Dollar Budget

Ronald Reagan once quipped that government is like a baby, an endless appetite on one end, and no discipline on the other. No place lives up to – or down to as the case may be — that analogy more so than Vermont. In case you missed it amongst all the hubbub and controversy surrounding … Read more

MacDonald: If Pride Month Was About Straight People

I love the timing of this, given that I just posted something similar on my Substack (there is a paywall on the second half because my subscribers deserve exclusive content that no one else can read). The revelation is neither new nor groundbreaking. It’s right up there with “Why are you obsessed with kids and … Read more

Ron Paul: A Golden Share Will Not Make America Great Again

Japanese company Nippon Steel’s plan to purchase US Steel was bound to provoke a strong reaction from left- and right-wing economic nationalists. After all, US Steel was once the world’s largest company, and it was the first company to be valued at over a billion dollars. US Steel was thus a symbol of America’s economic … Read more

Cardello: Tim Walz Cannot Shoot A Gun, But He Is A Loose Cannon

Minnesota has a track record of electing flamboyant, if ineffective, representatives. Al Franken, Jesse Ventura, and Ilhan Omar are a sampling, but the poster child for off-center, inept members of the government has to be the current Governor, Tim Walz. Tim Walz gained national prominence for his role in the George Floyd debacle, which decimated … Read more

Smith: Is Epsom Like Nashua?

What a ridiculous question it might be to ask if a red town has something in common with a blue city, especially if I make the question about 91A, but without the unpleasantness often involved in its pursuits.  Every community’s operating budget has its own greedy monster, the schools, consuming about 70% of the funds, … Read more

Cardello: Democrats are Wrecking Maine

Opinion: The Deadly Perils of Predatory Idealism

How would people react if, on the third time their broken-down car was towed to the same repair shop for the same problem, the swaggering mechanic told them: “Sure — the engine doesn’t work today but — follow me on this — next year, you will drive from coast to coast, and get 90 miles … Read more

Klar: Vermont’s Middlebury College Should Not Receive Federal Funding

Middlebury College was a bastion of eugenics theory a century ago. The school today teaches an offensive array of racist ideologies that are indistinguishable from its eugenics advocacy of yesteryear. Middlebury College seeks to scapegoat former Vermont Governor John Mead for modest pro-eugenics comments made a hundred years ago, obscuring its active and ongoing neo-racist teachings. The … Read more

Cline: EFA Expansion Compromise Achieves Universal Enrollment With a Brake on Growth

Though expanding Education Freedom Accounts to all New Hampshire students is a top Republican Party priority for this legislative session, differences between three competing plans produced an impasse. For weeks, doubts grew about Republicans’ ability to expand the program even though they controlled the governor’s office and both legislative chambers. On Wednesday, the House Finance … Read more

MacDonald: Ben & Jerry’s Latest Energy Virtue Signal?

One of the excuses the Climate Cult makes for ignoring the significant emissions from biomass plants is that, because it is carbon captured by plants, it makes it renewable. Plants capture CO2, so it’s okay to burn them and emit whatever into wherever. This is a cop out. Every fuel on the planet, except nuclear, … Read more
