Look at the map. Just look at it. If you have spent more than five minutes listening to the heartbeat of America—the hum of truck engines, the quiet grit in the grain silos, the packed-to-the-rafters rallies, and the sheer, undeniable pulse of neighborhoods demanding fiscal sanity and secure borders—the results coming out of this midterm ...

Remember Alton’s serial no-show, Rep. Peter Varney?  I wrote about him prior to Veto Day, when he turned his back on his fellow in-district colleague, Barbara Comtois, by blowing it off.  Not only was he absent, which is not uncommon when you hear the usual variety of excuses, but he left her and her slaughterhouse ...

Today, on the Morning Update, Democrats are preparing to waste a significant amount of time and political capital investigating everyone in or adjacent to the Trump Administration – after they defended Biden’s blanket pardons. Trump has made it clear: if Joe can do it, so can he. Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel if the ... Read more

A pedestrian steps off a curb, a shared scooter clips her at the hip, and three seconds later the rider is a block away. The medical bills land in her lap. One version of this case lives or dies on whichever bystander stuck around to give a statement. The other version runs on a data ... Read more

On government in general, and education in particular, too many activists and politicians view efficiency as an enemy. To them, the total budget of any government program is the only measure of how highly it is valued by citizens.  Any effort to restrain the growth of a government program is viewed as an attack on ...

New Hampshire has two openings to improve its workforce this fall. Governor Kelly Ayotte proposed a Community College Promise Program in October that would cover tuition for qualifying students from households earning up to $100,000, subject to future legislative approval. The New Hampshire Tech Alliance also published an October 2026 report on the state of ... Read more

Chuck Schumer has gone to great lengths to claim the Democrats recruited the highest-quality, most qualified people, which is why they had such success on Tuesday flipping the House and Senate. It is clear that in this political climate, anyone with a D after their name was a shoe-in. A Dixie cup could have won ... Read more

No matter how surprised (or not) you were by Tuesday’s ubiquitous train wreck, what’s NOT surprising is Laura Telerski being installed in Rosenwald’s seat, a Senate seat that doesn’t have to answer to any voters outside Nashua.  Higher than local office and state rep, there have been and still are public servants in Nashua that ...

The Democrat brain makes excuses for its contradictions because they pave the path to power. Once you understand that, the nonsense makes sense. Democrats pretend to defend ‘illegals’, ‘migrants’, and minorities while turning their “communities” into drug-infested, baby-daddy war zones flooded with illegal criminal aliens who steal not just their stuff but their government benefits ...

Well, that sucked. Pretty much all the gains Vermont Republicans made in 2024 got flushed down the toilet in 2026. The reason was Donald Trump. Can we finally admit it? The guy is politically undisciplined, thoroughly unlikeable, and a megalomaniacal, narcissistic jerk (for lack of a better word that can be published in family papers), ... Read more

Democrats make crap up, toss it in the media blender, and then spin. Keeping up can be difficult for those of us paying attention. Normal people who want to be left alone won’t bother reviewing the nonsense. They are happy the calls have stopped, and the ads are gone. They’d like to move on, but ... Read more

If Republicans had been successful in holding the House and Senate, they would have defied a historical trend. Only a handful of times has a sitting President retained the advantage of a Congressional majority at the midterms, with the last being George Bush in 2002. The country was still united after 9/11, and the voters ... Read more

It’s 2026, but we still have an (allegedly) pro-Hamas “science” teacher shaming sixth graders over the COVID shot. All kinds of wrong there, but that was Friday’s story.

We’ve had some really trashy executive councils in the past, not too long ago.  Aside from that gerrymandered, unwinnable seat occupied by Karen Liot Hill (KLH), the other 4 seats have been occupied by some real pieces of work, like Deb “liberty and justice for SOME” Pignatelli (in Wheeler’s seat), the PappASS (predecessor to Ted ...

I shared a meme earlier today that shows you what happens to “affordability” when you let globalist progressives run wild with your politics and the economy. Less meme-like content has shown how Europeans live in the land of economic malaise, where things we see as everyday amenities are luxuries to them. It’s the exact same ... Read more

After two years of litigation, the Bow, New Hampshire, school district has finally admitted that it violated the free speech rights of parents who wore wristbands bearing the letters “XX” to support their daughters during a soccer game.
