So, given the kerfuffle with tariffs with Canada and Mexico, I thought this might be interesting: And given that I’m driving Canadian blogger Lloyd Alter nuts on tariffs (he still has no clue other than “TAX! Betrayal by an ALLY!”, I dropped this at his place as he complained (paraphrased) “very little drugs going over … Read more
Social and Emotional Learning has come under fire since it first began showing up in schools. SEL was going to be used as part of a behavior framework known as the Multi Tiered System of Support. The MTSS-B is a 3-tiered framework that guides schools on how to handle behavior or mental health problems with … Read more
Progressives create government task force to protect illegals and expose citizens to risks. President Donald Trump has not announced any plans to deport foreigners who are legally in the US. Rather, he’s focusing federal resources solely on protecting Americans from violent offenders. Still, progressive ideologues across the nation have rallied to “protect” people illegally in … Read more
“There is not a syllable in the constitution, that makes a decision of the judiciary – of its own force, and without regard to its correctness – binding upon any body, either upon the executive, or the people.” That’s from Lysander Spooner, reminding us of an essential, but long-forgotten fundamental principle repeatedly affirmed by the … Read more
A few days ago, we reported on what we thought was “an issue” with the New Hampshire legislature’s online reporting portal. The Granite State lets you “sign-in” to the legislature’s website to show support or opposition to a bill and even provide written testimony. This was adopted (presumably) because a lot of people can’t be … Read more
Today we began the day with a joint legislative session with the Senate to hear the Governor’s budget presentation. We learned that the Governor delivered to the House and Senate a budget that allocates more money to education and communities, contains no new tax increases, and focuses on the housing crisis and supports law enforcement. … Read more
Vindaloo Bugaboo (VB) and I join forces against the array of squishies, socialists, and environmentalists at Carbon Upfront. What we haven’t succeeded in doing is instructing them that they can mandate anything they want when it comes to how people are to live but that they will receive a lot of pushback – by politics … Read more
President Donald Trump let fly a flurry of executive orders in his first week as president. Among those was a reaffirmation of the US Constitution’s First Amendment prohibitions against government regulation of Americans’ liberties to speak and communicate free of government censorship. Volumes of evidence now point to blatant violations of this vital constitutional restraint … Read more
The gaslighting never seems to stop. But then, again, USAID money? They just can’t seem to figure out why the public’s view of them is lower than whale snot. With this shot, it shows they have little to no self-awareness that they keep making their feet look like Swiss cheese? One would normally think that … Read more
Remember that old 70s commercial for Wrigley’s Doublemint gum? It would say “double your pleasure.” Voting the wrong way on HB238 is one way to pleasure the old battle axe, and 25 Rs just voted to indefinitely postpone the Right to Work bill. Keeping in mind that Queen Sharon (Carson) is also an enemy of … Read more
On September 21st, 1897, The Sun – a New York newspaper – published an editorial by Francis Pharcellus Church. In it, he assured 8-year-old Virgina O’Hanlon that there was a Santa Claus. In 1897, Philip O’Hanlon, a surgeon, was asked by his eight-year-old daughter, Virginia O’Hanlon, whether Santa Claus existed. His answer did not convince her, and Virginia … Read more
There are some mornings in which thoughts and ideas come flying by with the ease and grace of a flock of geese flying south for the winter. On this day before Lincoln’s birthday, this is the right time for printing such high flying thoughts. At this three-week point in Trump’s second term, the democrats have … Read more
By a vote of 52-48, the US Senate has confirmed Robert F. Kenedy Jr. as the ew Director of the Federal Department of Health and Human Services. Cocaine Mitch was the lone Republican holdout. “…Vice President Mike Pence’s organization, Advancing American Freedom, had been urging senators to vote against confirming Kennedy Jr. over his past … Read more
Trump won the Presidency because of stupidity like this. 79% of adults polled agree that boys/men should not play on girls/women sports teams in K-12. But the Minnesota State High School League has told its schools that it and they must obey based on Minnesota law: “In Minnesota, participation and eligibility of transgender student-athletes is … Read more
The noise about Elon Musk is not about the separation of powers, a Constitutional Crisis, or destroying America or our Democracy. The last one angers me because these people should know we are a Republic, not a Democracy. The noise about Elon Musk ranges from he is unelected and unconfirmed to a crook, a thief, … Read more
When we watch television at my house, we watch a lot of crime and mystery programming. I call them murder shows. Some are more intense than others, darker, but Hollywood, movies, and television – the entertainment industry – always make it a priority to frame lawyering up as a bad thing. As if trying to … Read more
A Federal Government Publication Affirms That Education is “A matter reserved for the states” About ten years ago, I stopped in a library in Medfield, Massachusetts, a town about 40 miles West and South of Boston. At its book sale, I found “Formation of the Union Under the Constitution” in 1943 which was published to … Read more
When the people who hate people take control, their policies always give them away. They make motor and heating fuel, water, food, electricity, rent, almost anything and everything more expensive – while insisting they are fighting for minorities and lower-income “families,” and the middle class – whom they hate most of all. They hate people, … Read more
In the first half-hour, Mke Rogers joins me to talk through the legal challenges being erected to prevent Donald Trump from exposing the deep state; suits, courts, states, and more. In the second half-hour, I am joined by Kimberly Morin from the Women’s Defense League. We talk gun bills in the Granite State, from dopey … Read more
The totalitarian possibilities of the UN/WEF cabal of multinational “stakeholders” (who seek to own all the world’s steak) is neither the Left- nor the Right-wing, displaying more of a chimera displaying slogans common to both. Kissinger’s proposal in his 1974 Kissinger Report to control human population growth for “national security” and industrial protectionism was couched in glowing … Read more
