MACDONALD: Get Off Your Ass

Depending on which AI you believe, fewer than 7 voters out of every 100 actually need to use vote by mail or an absentee ballot. Truly and absolutely need it and are, in fact, eligible to vote in the first place. As few as 1% to as many as 7%. Enough to move the election … Read more

Merrimack Dems painting rocks

SMITH: Painted Rocks And Cognitive Dissonance?

I will start by saying some kind words about a former FB friend, Comrade Ellen McDowell Ruggles.  She’s a friendly older woman that I’ve crossed paths with in social circles of mutual interest, particularly hiking and paddling.  Sadly, I found it in my best interest to cut ties with most of my fellow paddlers and … Read more

PAYNE: The Other “AI”

Everyone knows that “AI” stands for “Artificial Intelligence,” but not everyone knows that the power that controls it victimizes because of another type of AI: automatic ignorance. We should not look at all the good it can do and ignore its potential for evil, nor ignore the morality of those who seek to gain control … Read more

MACDONALD: Racial Profiling

You won’t get much argument from anyone, including the proglodytes, about California’s progressive credentials. Blue states want to be California when they grow up, and Democrats in every state want to emulate it. The economic and social downward spiral associated with left-wing priorities only seems to catalyze their desire to duplicate it where they live. … Read more

KLAR: USPS Mail-In Ballot Rules Head to US Supreme Court

Democrats’ knee-jerk opposition to President Donald Trump’s initiatives apparently even extends to the most sensible policies, including efforts to ensure that US elections are honest and transparent. Frustrated by congressional dithering over passage of the SAVE America Act, Trump issued an executive order that directed federal agencies to create a database of eligible voters to … Read more

SHURTLEFF: Pinch-Faced Leftist Woman and the Right to Bear Arms

On July 3, I was manning an information table at Manchester, NH’s  Independence Day Celebration.   We had hundreds of attendees visit our table.  One of the items of interest on our table was a firing replica colonial-era musket.  Many of the visitors asked to be photographed holding the musket, which we were happy to do.  … Read more

Donchess money fleecing at city hall

COLQUHOUN: Mismanaged Finances

Nashua taxpayers deserve full transparency, accuracy, and candor from their elected officials. Recent developments, however, raise serious concerns about how Mayor Jim Donchess and the Board of Aldermen are managing the City’s finances, and how residents are being informed about those decisions. The FY2026 budget initially presented to residents totaled $474,895,381. Yet the City now … Read more

MACDONALD: Hiding What They All Knew

A group in Maine called Progressive Victory, very likely a DSA front group, tried to warn Maine Democrats about Troy Jackson. Platner was out, and Jackson was the popular fake working-man replacement. But the so-called lumberjack had a history he’d have to pretend didn’t exist. You know, the old, you’re misrepresenting, misunderstanding, that didn’t happen … Read more

Imani: Texas Cannot Afford an Attorney General Who Won’t Fight

Let’s be honest: following Ken Paxton is not a job for the faint of heart. For years, he took hit after hit from the left, from the media, and from the Austin establishment, and he still delivered victory after victory for Texas. He fought federal overreach in court and won. He fought the Biden administration … Read more

MACDONALD: Royce White and NH Dems

For decades, we had to put up with Democrats insisting that people could claim New Hampshire as their residence for voting purposes. And not just them Dems. Lawyers, Judges, College Administrators, activists, Republicans. You could live in New Hampshire for voting purposes, but you didn’t need to live here for any other purpose. Vote for … Read more

SMITH: The League of Women Voters

In 2023, while I was Alderman Dowd’s opponent, I received an invitation from the League of Women Voters (LWV) to attend a Wards 1, 2, and 6 candidate forum at the library, which is in trashy Ward 4 and not even near Ward 2. Despite their name, one should ask them whether they even know what … Read more
