I read the Vermont Democrats’ post-mortem report following their 2024 election debacle, in which Republicans picked up 19 House seats, 6 Senate seats, and the lieutenant governorship (the first time an incumbent LTG was ousted from office since 1815), ending their supermajority status in both chambers. The key insight in the document leaves me wondering … Read more
Should America, or the United States government, pay reparations to African Americans for slavery? I answer emphatically NO!

If the City of Nashua and its three “independent” arts center corporations were truly separate, you would expect them to act that way when legal trouble arrived. They didn’t. Instead, they entered into a Confidentiality and Common Legal Interest Agreement, a joint defense pact that allowed them to operate as a single, coordinated legal unit while … Read more
So, the networks dumped her like a hot potato. I wrote weeks ago, and Nancy Guthrie has been missing for seven weeks now, that I thought it was wrong to devote so much of a network’s news time to a victim. This woman, who nobody in America would have ever heard of, was supposedly kidnapped … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, elected Democrats are the only ‘group’ opposed to ID to vote, but they are fine with requiring ID for all sorts of things, and in Connecticut, Democrats don’t want you to produce an ID to vote, but you will need ID for this. And yes, I say Tuesday, March 23rd, … Read more
This week, the Finance committee met to recommend 29 bills to the House. We did 20 before lunch, then settled in on the more difficult ones.

Most Americans don’t realize it, but Vermont has become quite progressive. Even some liberal Californians who moved to Vermont have remarked how much more extreme the Green Mountain State is today compared to the land of Gavin Newsom.

Not 24/7, but definitely 5-7/7/365 and depending … Read more
I have admitted my mistake or misjudgement enough times, but one more may be in order. I thought it was a travesty when John Fetterman ran for the Senate to represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and that was before he had a stroke.

When the City of Nashua created three shell corporations to build and manage the Nashua Performing Arts Center, the public was told they were private and therefore off-limits. Private corporations, the argument went, meant private records. Private records meant the public had no right to see how decisions were being made. But the documents tell a … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, a Blue State Democrat governor announced this week that she will fight for lower energy costs, meaning she will pretend to try and slow her party’s deliberate economy-crushing cost hike, at least until she knows she’s still the governor.
