For transporting us beyond seas, to be tried for pretended offences.” From the Declaration of Independence, one of the charges against the King that justified secession. It was built on a violent American raid on a British ship years earlier that few of us are ever taught about. In the early hours of June 10, … Read more

Two features of the progressive cult that appear obvious, but which don’t get enough attention, are the othering of people and the justification of violence, including murder. They’ve both been featured on these pages and in past morning updates, but the message needs to seep into the so-called political middle. The middle likes to ignore … Read more
Every June 19, the same paragraph gets read aloud. Granger, Galveston, General Order No. 3, freedom at last. All true. On that morning in 1865, Major General Gordon Granger landed on Galveston Island with more than two thousand troops and declared the enslaved free. He also voided every act of the Texas legislature since secession, … Read more

I confess that I was more than angry on Monday morning at the Democrats and the stupid talking heads on the legacy media outlets. That statement may be harsh, as ‘stupid’ is a difficult word to use to describe a mature adult, but in this case, it may not be harsh enough. My statement is … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, great news for taxpayers. The DOJ has charged 324 defendants connected to $ 14.6 billion in alleged fraud, including licensed medical professionals, transnational criminals, and drug dealers, defrauding our safety-net programs across 12 states.

New Hampshire’s primary elections have long been a cornerstone of our democratic process, especially for offices like the State Senate, which represents multiple towns and cities.

President Donald Trump announced Sunday that the U.S. and Iran agreed to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to bring the months-long war to an end.

The Left Coast Lunatics are setting a new standard for bureaucratic red tape. Rainbow colored tape, actually. The State has a program that awards energy “supplier-diversity benefits,” which has been expanded to encourage the energy sector to award contracts to gay businesses. By 2022, CPUC had fully implemented the expansion. In practice, this meant establishing … Read more

The Scottish fans walk around in their … Read more
Congress accidentally protected the American people’s liberty this week when it failed to extend Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Section 702 authorizes warrantless surveillance of foreign citizens. However, it has been “interpreted” by the FISA court to allow US intelligence agencies to wiretap conversations between a US citizen and a foreign … Read more
I have no idea what the Iran Deal will include beyond the 14-point MOU included below. Stop being the global sponsor of terror, give up an armed nuclear future, and allow actual inspections. It’s not complicated. You have a right to your own sovereignty but not the right to hold the world hostage. If you … Read more

I am going to tell you a story. It is about one of the most remarkable and most suppressed intelligence failures in American history.

The people who insist that there is no such thing as sex and that gender is fluid have gotten their boxers bolloxed over a recent NASA announcement. All four of the astronauts assigned to the Artemis III mission appear to be male (whatever that means). Before you start running into ICE agents in your SUV, … Read more
Rural Vermont Rising clearly has the Left spooked. Rightly so. Any organization that goes from zero to nearly 16,000 followers in a matter of a few months and is organizing itself with town-based chapters aimed at rolling back big chunks of the Democratic Socialist (or progressive, or “woke,” or whatever you want to call it) … Read more
