For good reason, there has been a lot of focus on the supermajority’s intention to implement a carbon tax on home heating fuels (oil, propane, kerosene, natural gas) in order to meet the greenhouse gas reduction mandates of their Global Warming Solutions Act. The big vote on the Unaffordable Heat Act is coming up right … Read more
There appears to be a new trend on the Left to minimize inappropriate behavior and diffuse the impact. This trend is a mutual effort of Democrat politicians and the complicit mainstream media. It is also a practice of the FBI that is teaming with the Dems to downplay the erosion of safety in America. The … Read more
Mr. Rabideau, my middle school photography teacher, often preached “halves and doubles” in lecturing about tweaking the F-stop and shutter speed. The institution of substitution was what his lesson was about. Take a different example from the grocery store junk food aisle. When some Sunshine or Nabisco product introduces a new version labeled as “reduced … Read more
First, and more importantly, no one was injured after a fire in a fire station destroyed over 20 million Euros worth of equipment, including a dozen vehicles. The cause is known—lithium batteries connected to a charger. AN EV emergency vehicle on charge achieved thermal runaway and took out an entire fire station. Did I mention … Read more
Thomas Sowell is not alone in his expert analysis of the problems plaguing Americans, particularly those of color. A black man, a former Marxist, and a stellar economist, Sowell is not popular with the political left, not for leaving them so much as for having his own mind and for refusing to lie down and … Read more
Sam Douglass is a candidate for State Senate in Orleans County and a lifelong Jay Peak resident.
Before we get into the meat of today’s topic, here’s a quick review of how property tax reform has gone down in Vermont since Act 60 became law in 1997: Property taxes go through the roof…. A critical mass of voters howl…. The Democrat-controlled legislature promises in public they’ll do something about it, but in … Read more
Marc Jaques is supposed to self-report on December 2nd for a 60-month jail sentence after pleading guilty to child pornography charges, but that liberty has been cut short, at least temporarily. He was picked up by law enforcement yesterday, the reasons being speculative. We had the opportunity to break the news last night after a … Read more
Ending Gender Discrimination in Public Information Access I have faced unjustified obstacles and outright hostility for four years while attempting to access public information from Nashua under New Hampshire’s 91-A Right to Know law. What I’ve experienced goes beyond bureaucratic inefficiency to include gender-based discrimination. Nashua’s leadership treats women differently—and worse than men. The Disparity: Men … Read more
October will be a wild, whacky ride in America. Not only is it a presidential election year, but American consumers are already preparing their Halloween decorations, costumes, and enough candy to sweetly forget about the impending political storm. From The Donald to Taylor Swift to cackling Kamala, 2024’s batch of Halloween costumes will be something to behold. … Read more
In the sometimes-heated rush to get or curate content each day for the best readers on the internet (that’s you guys), I sometimes neglect to account for my own (so-called) wisdom. One of those (we’ll call them) rules is Democrats projecting and telling you the truth about themselves or their policies by directing it at … Read more
WMUR is, once again, doing what they do as the propaganda machine. I already shamed Adam Sexton last month for playing Chris Wallace for Vikram, and now is a good moment to remind the readers that he is “on notice” as the Lily Tang Williams vs. Maggie Goodlander debate awaits us on October 31. However, … Read more
For the past eight years, the two major political parties have been gripped by a messy and ongoing realignment. It began with the election of Donald Trump in 2016, which was a major repudiation of the neoconservative-establishment coalition that had dominated the Republican Party since the presidency of George W. Bush. Trump’s condemnation of the … Read more
The government offers large amounts of money for Americans to buy electric vehicles (EVs) to help reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Many claims about EVs and their effects on the environment often seem conflicting. As with most manmade products, it can be difficult to fully measure all the environmental impacts: the … Read more
Kamala Harris wants to deprive Americans of the right to choose cars and household appliances. When she claims, as she did at a rally last week in Michigan, that “I will never tell you what kind of car you have to drive” she is guilty of two of the Democrats’ most reviled offenses, malinformation (failure to … Read more
Biden was not the ruling class’s first choice in 2020, but they didn’t want Bernie (they can’t let Trump win), so we ended up with Joe. The Blob, made up of the people who really run things or prefer to run them (including the 51 intelligence agent experts who lied about Hunter’s laptop), needs weak … Read more
The Democrat Cartel is in full-stage rage. The Joy and Vibe campaign ran out of gas weeks ago, and Kamala, the media, and every has-been Democrat they can get to a studio is spewing the same lines. Donald Trump is evil and a danger to America. It’s an old story and rears its ugly head … Read more
The Bishop Brady Girls High soccer team decided to protect their girls from multiple dangers this week. The team chose to cancel the game against a transgender player whose father happens to be a recently convicted sex offender. Marc Jacques reportedly attends all of his child’s “girl’s” soccer games, home and away, while he awaits … Read more
The 18 lives lost in Lewiston, Maine, can’t be returned, but the political arguments never die. And while we mourn any needless loss of life, the world that took it is not an accident. Some people did something to borrow from the illustrious Ilhan Omar. Deliberate legal, social, and cultural choices made over years and … Read more
On July 1, 2024, Girls who play school sports thought they would finally be protected from being forced to play against boys. That safety net was taken away by an NH judge on August 19th, who decided that this boy could still play on the Plymouth Girls High School Soccer team while a parent lawsuit worked its way … Read more
