The recent vote by the Executive Council of 3-2 against the re-nomination of Taylor Caswell as Commissioner of Business and Industry Affairs, I think, underscores something that is much more important. New Hampshire needs to stop investing in China. Taylor Caswell is a former Legislative Director for Rep. Bill Zeliff (R-NH), and his political connections ... Read more

Today is not a mystery but rather a continuation of the greed that captures the human heart.  Its latest alias, globalization, is today’s “must-have” need.  Its destructive quality, however, while masked by the terms of innovation and equality, is only a fancier brand of imagery that clouds our future destruction.  On a lesser scale, that ...

In case you haven’t heard, Senate Education was supposed to have an executive session and vote on the Ruth Ward amendment with the whole Senate voting on October 23.  Interestingly, when the committee returned from a short recess following Tuesday’s hearing, Ruth announced that the executive session would be rescheduled to “sometime before January.” A ...

In December 2023, I filed a detailed criminal complaint with the New Hampshire Department of Justice alleging that officials from the Town of Newmarket and their legal counsel had concealed and falsified public records—acts that, if proved, would violate New Hampshire’s tampering-and-falsification statutes. Nearly two years later, the Department’s Public Integrity Unit (PIU) has yet ... Read more

I still treasure wisdom from an old-time gospel song planted in my mind as a child: What is a mother’s love, dear friend, what is a mother’s love?

What Justice Should Look Like It’s Time for Civil DiscourseAfter five years in Nashua’s courts, I no longer believe the system fails by accident.

According to Google and AI, “Blessed are the peacemakers” is a biblical quote from the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5:9, meaning that those who actively work to create peace will be called the children of God. This is distinct from being a “peacekeeper,” who merely maintains a fragile status quo. Peacemakers actively resolve conflict by bringing ... Read more
