Nashua’s Selective Enforcement of “Shall” There’s a phrase often attributed, loosely and somewhat inaccurately, to Karl Marx: power without ideology. Whether or not Marx ever said it in those exact words, the concept is unmistakable: power exercised without consistent principle, without accountability, and without any obligation to apply rules evenly. That idea is playing out in real time … Read more

As predicted, there was plenty of strident debate on HB1602 (creating a safe battery recycling stewardship program) before the House recessed for lunch. Mr. McGuire made an excellent 8-minute speech in favor of moving it to an interim study. I encourage everyone to listen to it, though I’m aware that asking for 8 minutes of … Read more

I recently got an email from someone who is concerned that President Trump is getting us into another “quagmire” of a war in the Middle East. Here was my response: I’m sorry, but I feel very differently about the Iran war. Iran has been at war with America since it took the hostages from the … Read more

I take umbrage with the idea of taxes as an investment. Given the opportunity, even the two-faced Dems spouting nonsense about our patriotic duty to let the government rob us would put their money into something else. Even just your own pocket is likely to produce better results in both the short and long term … Read more
Wasting some time on MS Now this morning gave me a dose of Mika, sitting and bobbing her head; Mike Barnicle, who, like Biden, made a career out of plagiarism; and Cory Booker, who has turned his career into video clips and sound bites. It is not a question of why the network is cutting … Read more

It’s no secret that our country is deeply divided today. One side applauds our president and his efforts to keep our citizens safe and make our country stronger. But the president’s opponents despise everything about him, his administration, and his policies. They bitterly resist everything he stands for. It’s not the first time that America’s … Read more

Another Major League Baseball season will soon be upon us, which brings me to the Czech Republic. And the Holocaust. And Hollywood. I’ll explain. Sports are ubiquitous. They’re everywhere, and they create common ground to connect world travelers. This notion was affirmed during a European trip I once enjoyed with some academicians, “Following Freud’s Footsteps” … Read more
People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (MEK) is a parasitic anomaly. To call them Iranian is a tactical error and a historical lie. They are a cult of ideological mercenaries who severed their veins from the Iranian motherboard decades ago. They do not represent a political movement; they represent a decommissioned weapon system, repurposed by foreign … Read more

Bill Clinton is famous for many things. Having sex with women who are not his wife, for example. Allegedly having sex with underage girls, ala Epstein.

I run with the logo CALIFORNIA REFUGEE. Simple reason: I lived most of my life in California. I saw it transformed from a Ronald Reagan den of conservative values- you know, family, God, work, boys and girls bathrooms- to a third-world oligarchy run by Nancy Pelosi, Gavin Newsom, Willie Brown, and others. There are a … Read more
