SCAER: Federally-Funded NGO Propagandizes NH Schoolchildren with the Trans Agenda

Mon, 2026-01-05 15:00 +0000

I stumbled across a post on Facebook about trans propaganda that was shared with students as young as 11 at a Nashua, New Hampshire middle school. The Nashua Prevention Coalition (NPC) representative set up a table during the lunches at Fairground Middle School and lured kids over by offering them colorful Pride flags. While they ... Read more

PAYNE: The Collective Prince of Fools

Mon, 2026-01-05 10:00 +0000

Truth and virtue are the foundations of liberty. Free people are in peril when they forget the basics that made them free. Ignorance and apathy invite the opposite – lies, fraud,  and corruption.  People sell their votes while greed and envy feed the nanny state. A political cartoon once said, “I’VE BEEN IN OFFICE 20 ...

CARDELLO: Symbolic the Oath Taken Underground

Sun, 2026-01-04 22:00 +0000

I am not sure whether the oath taken at the stroke of midnight, whether it was done underground, or whether a Quran was used instead of a traditional Bible, is the most symbolic of the devastating era dawning on New York City. New York City woke on Friday under the Socialist control of Zohar Mamdani, ... Read more

McMaken: The Rise of the State and the Fall of Natural Law

Sun, 2026-01-04 19:00 +0000

December 2025 marks the centennial of Pope Pius XI’s 1925 encyclical Quas Primas, which established the feast of Christ the King. Today, this feast is often commemorated by your average, milquetoast clergyman through calls to metaphorically embrace Jesus Christ as king and to have him “reign in our hearts.” That sort of thing has its place, ...

OPINION: Good Health Instead of Special Interests in 2026

Sun, 2026-01-04 17:00 +0000

In a free society, the government would respect that an individual’s health-related choices are his own business. There would be no local, state, or national government “health departments” intervening in these matters. All of that would be left to individuals to decide. Government health departments in America have become appendages of entities such as pharmaceutical ... Read more

CARDELLO: Is There No Low to the Bottom Feeders the Left Will Support

Sun, 2026-01-04 15:00 +0000

If Donald Trump identifies them as detrimental to America, you can almost guarantee that the Left will be out in force supporting them. Rapists, child molesters, murderers who violate our border are entitled to due process when they should be quickly deported. Somali thieves who scammed Americans out of billions of dollars to fund lavish ... Read more

MACDONALD: Paid $1.69 for Eggs, $2.69 for Butter & Gas Prices are Dropping

Sat, 2026-01-03 22:00 +0000

You can pay more if you want to. We’ve got stores hereabouts that’ll take 4-5 dollars a dozen for eggs, but they always did that. The Biden printing press inflation/spending machine drove the cost of everything up. Who was it that lost their mind when they found out a pound of butter was over seven ... Read more

OPINION: Revisiting JD Bernardy’s HB652 – Abolishing Family Court

Sat, 2026-01-03 17:00 +0000

Editor: The author has asked to remain anonymous. In New Hampshire, family courts have outwardly been a two-decade battleground  between parents and the legislature—those striving to restore due process and accountability, while others are committed to continuing an irretrievably broken system. Unsurprisingly, meaningful corrective provisions for due process, appeals, and redress options are notably absent in ... Read more

LIVE STREAM: Trump on Venezuela Operation

Sat, 2026-01-03 15:30 +0000

Overnight, the US military escorted Federal law enforcement into Caracas, Venezuela, to arrest Nicolás Maduro. By all accounts, the effort (mission) was flawless. As to the constitutionality, there will be questions. Maduro has had an arrest warrant out for years, so using the military to protect law enforcement, to collect him, in a foreign nation, ...

Let’s call a spade a spade and recognize SB406 for what it is, an urban blue senator’s effort to flip a neighboring red district.  However, its selling points to the Senate Finance Committee when Rosenwald (a member) introduces it to her peers at the January 13 hearing will be all about removing the Daniel Webster ...

MACDONALD: While We’re Getting Uppity about ‘Learning Center’ Fraud

Sat, 2026-01-03 12:00 +0000

It is not lost on anyone anymore that when Democrats use the word affordable in front of any other word, it means subsidized money laundering into Democrat campaigns. And not to kick a dead donkey, but I’ve been more than clear about how and why Democrats don’t have a clue how to do it any ... Read more

In his December 2025 commentary for The Daily Signal, “Leaders Fail When the Threat of Radical Islam Is Ignored,” Victor Davis Hanson does not merely contribute to the 24-hour news cycle; he pens a digital memento mori for a fading civilization. To review this piece from the perspective of a cultural archaeologist is to see ... Read more
