I saw that Grokster Ann Marie is demanding easy answers to hard questions, but the Superintendent, Tom Abrose, is giving her a hard time. And yes, I’ve been reading and giving her some advice, and I noticed that every Subdivision of the State (e.g., towns, school boards, state agencies, commissions…on and on) has decided that … Read more

As November 2024 approaches, it seems appropriate to revisit this third rail of New Hampshire politics: election fraud in the Granite State. There were anomalies, not just in now-infamous Windham and not just in 2020, but this caught my eye, so I thought I’d share it as a reminder. Note: Right Rally will ultimately be … Read more
It is impressive how marketing carefully chooses words to mask a situation and give it a positive spin. One of my all-time favorites is Reproductive Rights. It sounds pretty good, doesn’t it? In the case of women, Reproductive Rights must involve protecting a female to decide to become pregnant and have children on their terms … Read more

You can get news – … Read more
Democrats excoriate Trump and then think that we won’t see Kamala doing the same kinds of things. “So many Democrat voting women, often married, think Trump is untrustworthy because they believe he slept with side chicks. So now they are going to demonstrate how much they hate Trump by voting for the actual side chick, … Read more

The Republicans, having passed HB1002, not only made it more expensive for investigators trying to find malfeasance within the Government, but they also hobbled people like me in a different way. Or, actually, not. Never mind. Rewind. Fagettiaboutit. Consider this just a post that describes what Republicans attempted to do (stick a political shiv into … Read more
Former President Donald Trump recently suggested repealing income tax on Social Security benefits. Is it pandering, or is it an idea with merit?

Fitness guru and biological woman Jillian Michaels took to her webspace this week, publishing a long and well-thought-out treatise on the problem of allowing men to compete against women in professional sports—any sports, really, whether they’ve had their hormones blocked or their bodies altered.
