by Jim Fitzgerald, Candidate for St. Albans State Representative Franklin 3-1
As a proud Democrat, I was elected to represent St. Albans in the Vermont state legislature for six years, and after that I served as mayor of St. Albans for four years. This year I am running for the legislature again… but as a Republican.
Yes, a Vermont Republican.
Why?
Reformatted, emphasis mine:
On Tuesday, Christine Hallquist won the Democratic primary in the state of Vermont and is officially the party’s gubernatorial candidate. Such a win would normally not receive much attention at all. However, Hallquist, who spent most of his life by the given name ‘David’, now lives as a transgender woman. As we’re well aware, that in itself launches him to a place of prominence among Leftists. As an actual, biological female, I find such obsessions not only irritating but downright insulting.
The People running the People’s Republic of Vermont (into the ground) have decided to offer 10,000.00 dollar bribes to the first 100 people who qualify for what they are calling a Remote-Worker Grant Program. To get the cash incentive you have to move yourself and your remote-work job to the Green Mountain State, (and then pay taxes, backstop socialized medicine and other rising welfare costs, along with increasing unfriendly policies towards natural rights including speech, property, and self-defense).
I think they left (most of that) out of the brochure.
In the heat of the moment, Vermont has gone full-Sanders and embraced a package of gun restrictions and limitations that will do absolutely nothing to reduce the odds of any illegal shooting in the state.
The Vermont House Judiciary Committee, motivated by the shooting in Parkland, Florida, advanced sweeping gun control legislation this week on a party-line vote.
Newport, Vermont is a tiny ‘berg’ near the Canadian border of roughly 4,600 people, but it attracts federal money like nobody’s business. Senators Leahy and Sanders, along with Representative Welch, all from Vermont, have wrangled a small fortune in grants to …”remodel” the airport there, money that now has ties to some nefarious characters.
In November 2012, there was some vote fraud. I know Democrats are denying it, but it is true. People who should not have voted in the swing state of New Hampshire came here and voted. Democrats conspired and planned it, statewide.
I’m a strong supporter of Vermont’s sovereign right to hold the line on taxes, and for them to try because of New Hampshire–well, it doesn’t get much better than that. It is as if we are projecting economic power throughout the region.
