The “Right” in New Hampshire suffers … perhaps incorrigibly … from cognitive dissonance—a couple of examples. New Hampshire spends more on “public education” than almost every other State.

Yet the “Right” keeps reciting the mantra that New Hampshire is “fiscally conservative” and, worse, that the existential threat to the State’s “fiscal conservatism” is subsidizing rail to Boston, despite the cost of that subsidy being essentially a rounding error on what the State spends on “public education.” Totally irrational.

Next example. The “Right” pretends that Ayotte and Morse are conservatives. Ayotte was essentially a mini-me Jeannie Shaheenie during her last year in the Senate (having spent the previous five shilling for the military-industrial complex), while Morse voted to codify Obamacare into State law and supported Sununu’s COVID-tyranny. It is totally irrational to consider either conservative.

Tucker Carlson lost his job at Faux because, in the eyes of the system, he went too far in exposing the cognitive dissonance of GOP voters. Asking an obvious question, like how does it benefit the United States to wage a proxy war against Russia that is destroying Ukraine, is an unforgivable sin. It’s as bad as asking why the “Right” in New Hampshire ignores the runaway spending on “public education” and instead fixates on defining “fiscal conservatism” as not subsidizing rail to Boston.

Tucker, by speaking truth to power, has become a worldwide phenomenon. Of course, simply speaking truth to power is not enough. Tucker is intelligent, articulate, fearless and, above all, funny and happy. Every State, especially New Hampshire, needs a Tucker Carlson.

For many in America, the Thursday night debate was an eye-opening event. For these folks, this was the first uncensored look at the Leader of the Free World, our Commander and Chief, and the 46th President of the United States, the Kid from Scranton, PA, Joe Biden.

You can almost smell the fear in the air. Panic has set in as these now-enlightened souls wonder if this old man can possibly beat Donald Trump again and save Democracy. These people, who the administration and news media have hoodwinked for three-plus years, are missing the point. The real question after seeing Joe shuffle onto the stage and mumble through every incoherent answer he uttered is who is running the White House, and can Joe Biden hobble to the finish line and safely end the term for this gang who could not shoot right?

Joe Biden went all in Thursday night and bet the house, the White House, on the hope that he could muster one more scene, like the State of the Union, and show the world he is still fit to run this country and still the only person who can beat Donald Trump. Joe said, “hit me,” when he should have said, “stay,” and the last card gave him 22. The Scranton Kid went bust, lost, and is broke: political power broke. By the 13-minute mark of the debate, it was clear Joe Biden was not fit to run, nor had he been running this country since 2021. The Democrats are screwed, but so are the American people. The bad guys of the world know that we do not have a President who can protect us, and we are not safe. America is being held hostage by an octogenarian who won’t give up the keys.

So, who has been running the show these last four years? Who is behind the curtain holding the strings on this puppet? I believe it is not a single person but a group of people led by Barack Obama who has been able to fool enough people to vote for Biden and give these psychopaths the time to complete the transformation of America promised by Obama nearly 16 years ago.

Insiders claim that Joe Biden can only perform his duties from 10 AM to 4 PM. This limitation is why you usually see his on-camera events during that timeframe. Later in the day, he is more apt to gaffes and shows signs of fatigue. This schedule is unfair to Americans who deserve a full-time president, and a part-time executive is a national security issue. It is estimated that the President has seven minutes to respond to a missile attack on America, and less if hypersonic. We need a Commander in Chief who is coherent 24/7, period.

Joe Biden’s mental decline is accelerating. You only need to look at videos of the President in 2021 and now for comparison. That decline is not going to slow. Democrats should be concerned about Biden finishing his first term, let alone reelection. Biden’s selfishness in resigning may result in a constitutional crisis, with the need for emergency measures to be put in place. That may be a delay in the election or provisions for a replacement candidate on all state ballots. These will create an issue between the federal and state governments regarding the control of elections. The Democrats are concerned with the Republican threat to Democracy, but they seem to be doing an excellent job of imploding it now.

The post Who Is Running This Show appeared first on Granite Grok.

The infinite number of progressive (AI?) monkeys are banging away on their endless number of virtual typewriters (some of whom are still tasked with the regime’s censorship duties in the digital dungeons at Menlo Park and Mountain View) to explain away or erase what happened last Thursday. Don’t let them.

We need to keep that truth alive in the minds of Americans if we can, and that’s what the latest Trump Ad below attempts to do, I think. It is a public service reminder. Mr. Biden is not running the country (as we’ve all known for some time), but whoever is can’t continue to do that if Biden is removed or voted out of office. Even if his replacement were a Democrat, the people behind Biden wouldn’t be in charge. That new president would. They don’t want that either, I suspect.

Not that the outcome would be any different. Democrats are gonna’ Democrat, as they say, and we can expect Biden’s CNN deep fake performance to feature heavily against the left up and down the ticket: How are you still Ridin’ With Biden?

The answer is a visceral hatred of Donald Trump and the projection of Biden’s failings onto him. Don’t let them get away with that, either, and feel free to send us anything you think will help.

The post Don’t Let Them Reimagine What Happened on That Debate Stage appeared first on Granite Grok.

I remember reading the columns and editorials of several conservative and Republican pundits who were hoping that Trump would lose in 2020.  They based their hopes on hatred of Trump’s personality and his disregard for “the norms of Presidential behavior.”  They called themselves “NeverTrumpers” and were proud of it.

Others on both sides of the political aisle also hoped for conservatives and Republicans to lose, saying that the “only way” for the public to understand how screwed up America had become was to allow the country to hit rock bottom.  Their theory went that “once we’ve bottomed out, we’ll be able to rebuild.”

I disagreed with all of them, often and quite loudly.  I felt that allowing the US to continue to decline was a danger to the rest of the world: the US is a stabilizing force around the world, and to destabilize the US would be to destabilize the rest of the world.

On Thursday night, CNN was instrumental in ripping off the mask that the Democrats had kept in place over Biden’s cognitive decline.  By setting the rules for the debate, Biden himself had put in place the stage where the world would know that “the emperor has no clothes.”  The Democrat’s and media’s selected and appointed leader failed miserably to speak in complete sentences, to maintain a single train of thought, and to answer questions completely and honestly – without repeating previously and often-debunked tropes about his opponent. After his disastrous performance, his wife, Jill, spoke to him as a child in front of the whole world: “You did so well, Joe!  You answered all the questions!”

Nail, meet coffin.

Democrats used the federal government to pass laws that forced individuals to submit to policies that tore families apart, violated scientific facts, and unbalanced equality throughout both government and private industry.  Now, after Thursday night and their party leader’s almost total mental collapse in front of the entire world, the Democrats are in full panic mode.

Republicans, meanwhile, concentrated on winning state-level elections and won at least half the governor’s mansions and state legislatures in the nation.  They gained the power and the state-level support to begin passing state-level laws to counter an increasing number of those federal mandates.

The up-and-coming generation is realizing that they cannot afford to live on their own because of the huge debt load that both taxes and inflation have saddled them with.  They’re not happy.  And they’re beginning to realize that Biden’s “school debt forgiveness” plan, which has twice been found unconstitutional, won’t happen.  They want to blame someone… but they can’t blame Trump.

Then:

This past week, the SCOTUS issued decisions that reversed decades of “government knows best” assumptions.  The most impactful was the declaration that “Chevron is overruled” (that is exact text from the decision).  Reversing Chevron means that Congress can no longer write obscure and confusing laws, pass them, and hope that the Administrative branch can turn those obscurities into enforceable measures.

The result is that Congress must now make its meaning clear from the start.  Legislators must legislate.  They can no longer pass the buck and use Nancy Pelosi’s “we have to pass the law to find out what’s in it” mantra.  The SCOTUS has declared that “if it isn’t in the law, then it isn’t in the law.”  The SCOTUS has slapped the wrist of the “administrative state” and told them to enforce the law as written.  And if there is obscurity, it is up to a court to decide what the law means, not some functionary in DC.

The media is still complicit in its hatred of the concept of American self-determination.  They (or it) believe that The People cannot make decisions for themselves.  The People are plainly too stupid, too uneducated, too biased, or unable because “they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them (Obama)”.  No, they declare, it is up to them, the self-appointed “experts”, to act as “guides”.  Anything else is an “attack on democracy.”

Now, after Thursday night, those self-appointed “experts” have been revealed to be sycophants and ideologues who were willing to sell their reputations for a seat at the pundit’s table on networks with ever-shrinking audience bases.  Some of those “experts” don’t even have enough national viewers to fill a mid-sized football stadium.  (You’ll be shocked at how few viewers some of those “hosts” have.  The statistics are factual: cable boxes can – and do – report the channels being watched and at what time, and those numbers can’t be faked).

Yes, there are a huge number of Americans who are still comfortable wearing rose-colored glasses and believing that the government knows best.  But more and more Americans are looking at their wallets, their children’s educations, and their hourly wages.  And their satisfaction with their current situation is waning.  They’re finding out that “that government is best which governs least” (attributed to Jefferson, but he didn’t actually write it.)

For some, it’s hard to admit that they may have been misled, especially when they believed what they were told by almost all of the “experts” in the news media, and especially after the debate and they saw for themselves that the current president is “fading.”  The big question is: will they look in the mirror and ask themselves, “Have I been played for a fool?”

My advice to them is: Don’t be too concerned.  MILLIONS of Americans were also played for a fool.  The question now is: will you continue to allow yourself to be “played” by those who only want power for themselves?

Terry Red-Flag Roy is the gift that keeps on giving … to the Woke-Communists. Why would you legitimize a Fake-News, Advocacy-Journalism, propaganda-outlet like NHPR by giving them an interview?

The answer is obvious in the case of Terry Roy … because he is a narcissist first and a conservative a distant second. See below:

Is it possible that Red-Flag Roy doesn’t understand that the “journalists” at NHPR look down on Roy’s constituents … see them as part of a sub-class of humans that NHPR and the rest of the elites have a duty to rule over … and that NHPR’s loyal-listeners share those sentiments? And doesn’t understand that legitimizing fake news and advocacy journalism, at best, does nothing to advance conservatism?

Vermont has just done something hailed by Climateers as groundbreaking and memorialized by The Week with the headline: ‘Vermont becomes first state to make fossil fuel companies pay for climate change.’

Really?

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. They haven’t done anything but pass a bill (S.259). They have no idea how they will execute it, or if they can, what it will look like, and how much … you get the idea. And in the interest of helping bring this closer to the planet Earth they claim to be saving, I think what The Week meant was that they are the first state to say they are going to try to do it.

Do What? If you are familiar with Vermont, you’ve got a handy string of unflattering references and colorful metaphors suggesting the political/bureaucratic equivalent of erectile dysfunction. If you know anything about Vermont’s Clean Heat Standard (for example), you are probably giggling and pointing or shaking your head. While Vermont has the votes to pass any climate legislation it can imagine (as much science fiction as climate change itself), it increasingly lacks any ability to craft language or rules its government can make work.

They say they are going to “make fossil fuel companies pay for climate change,” but is that what their legislation will do?

The Vegas odds are low, which might be why Vermont – despite all the other blue states with their significantly larger number of left-wing lunatics – managed to pass it before anyone else.

Is it the result of an advanced case of progressive mental illness? An insular, self-absorbed obsession with the lie that the carbon dioxide emitted by Western “democracies” is going to despoil the planet (while the greater emissions from India, Africa, Asia, and especially China will not). Napolean Syndrome? Or is it simply the innate leftist hunger to redistribute other people’s earnings as they see fit, even when it harms the people in whose interest they claim to act?

How about all of the above?

Another Climate Laundromat

The problem begins with the Vermont legislature having more elected Democrats in it than (at which) you can shake a Mann-Made hockey stick. It has veto-proof majorities in both chambers. The state’s governor, Phil Scott, is a token Republican and a chief executive with a soap box but not much else. He’s also alleged to be the most popular governor in the country but has anyone considered that the two things (impotence and popularity) might be connected?

Mr. Scott allowed S.259 to become law (the thing that will “make” fossil fuel companies pay for climate change) without his signature, in part because he couldn’t stop it and, in part, because he is himself, is a little bit Hopey-climate-change.

From The Week.

[Gov. Phil] Scott did not seem too keen on the idea of the bill, seemingly brushing it off as too difficult a task. However, in a note to Vermont’s Senate secretary, he wrote that he “[understands] the desire to seek funding to mitigate the effects of climate change that has hurt our state in so many ways,” especially given that Vermont dealt with deadly, climate-caused flooding last year.

Translation: Tax and spend Democrats are so incapable of managing the taxpayer’s wages that it must find scapegoats to help pad a treasury it can’t fill despite the endless parade of new and higher taxes, and Phil is willing to let them trip over this cluster of (you know what’s) because he likes other people’s money too.

If it doesn’t work, he didn’t sign it, and he can always say he couldn’t stop it.

You Can’t Help Loving Other People’s Money

For the record, all flooding is climate-related, as is its absence. Rained out weddings, glorious beach days. Weather. Climate. In the case of Vermont, Its ‘Climate’ has a long history of major floods. Vermont also has a history of building things where it has flooded before for as long as people have been living in Vermont. I wonder if the fossil fuel company lawyers could do something with that when the Green (as in, we need a mountain of someone else’s money) State figures out how much to put at the bottom of the bill they plan to send them.

This is a state that spends thrice as much on education to crank out kids barely half as bright. That same state can’t possibly fix anything (certainly not the weather), no matter how much or whom they charge. Not that this is about that. This is a fishing expedition—legalized robbery. And by claiming the pockets to be picked are Big Oil, they make you think one thing when, in fact, the truth is something else.

S.259 will allow Vermont to “bill fossil fuel companies retroactively for the costs of addressing, avoiding and adapting to the damages that the emissions from their products have caused” between 1995 and 2024, said Heatmap News. But this is a multistep process. First, the Vermont treasurer must assess the total cost of these emissions to determine how much the state is owed.

Don’t you dare say Ex Post Facto or mention Bills of Attainder (both unconstitutional) because Vermont’s legislators love what they love (by which I mean your money). S.259, the “Climate Superfund Act,” launders money to fill the state’s coffers by charging fuel companies for alleged damages caused by alleged climate change (which amounts to whatever the government’s thieves say it is). Oh, look, a storm wrecked some infrastructure that was built where it floods every ten years. Make them Pay!

Climate change is less about climate and more about change. The change in the amount of change in your pocket. The fossil fuel companies won’t be paying for whatever the regulators decide is the cost of “climate change.” That will be borne by every citizen in the state of Vermont, and the Legislature can’t prevent that.

That added cost of doing business in Vermont won’t just trickle down. It will show up in the rising cost of everything that moves in a vehicle fueled by … fuel. All energy costs will spike. Businesses will have to cut staff, pay, and benefits and maybe even close up shop. Even the cost of government will go up.

That Climate Superfund will make everything more expensive (which includes covering the cost of climate change) at a time when, thanks to some Democrats who did something from DC, everything is already more expensive.

What Big Oil Should Do

When I first heard the Vermont State Senate bill passed (and I’ve said this here before), I thought fuel companies should stop doing business in Vermont. The State is, after all, in a huge hurry to get to its all-electric, no-fossil-fuel paradise. Say no today. Don’t wait for the office of charging fossil fuel companies to pay for climate change to send a bill. Give them their green future now. Good and hard, if you take my meaning.

And how long do you think it would take for all hell to break loose? Not long. Sure, Vermonters can drive to New York or Massachusetts to get gasoline—to New Hampshire if they want it and want to save a lot more money—but that’s an impractical solution. The entire economy needs fuel, oil, and gas to run. Without it, the state is at a standstill when the tanks in the ground are empty.

Is that what it will take to get Vermonters to end the madness? To vote for candidates whose primary goal is not to screw them as hard as they can in pursuit of their partisan fantasies?

Maybe. America is in something of the same situation, except that it only takes a few dedicated operatives in a handful of states to screw the entire nation. But that should mean more for activism at the state level.

Fix what you can as soon as possible, and then be vigilant about keeping it that way, especially in Vermont. The path it is on has been spiraling downward for years, and S.259 isn’t going to punish anyone but Vermonters.

The Big Debate of 2024. When did you last see such an anticipated event that wasn’t a Patriot’s Super Bowl? The pregame dissection of the debate was fascinating to watch and made it clear which talking head was backing which candidate.

The one thing that was over the top was all of the legacy media talking in unison, attacking the character of Donald Trump—the most despicable display of self-importance and disrespect for the former president was Kassie Hunt of CNN. With her nose up in the air in a condescending fashion, she asked her guest if Joe Biden would shake Donald Trump’s hand. She went on to say that Donald Trump was not worthy of a Joe Biden’s handshake. The two men did not shake hands, but Joe Biden shook many heads on Thursday night, and by Friday morning, watching MSNBC and CNN was more like observing a state funeral than a Presidential debate.

There seemed to be shock and surprise at CNN and MSNBC, which leads me to an obvious question. Were these supposedly political experts really at a loss for Biden’s condition and performance, or were they caught in the big lie perpetrated by the White House and supported entirely by the legacy media? What the world saw of Joe Biden on Thursday is what we on the Right have been pointing to since 2021. If the former is true, these supposed experts are worse at their jobs than we could imagine. If the latter is true, these people should be relieved of their duties. They are not fit to be dispersing expert analysis of a debate, campaign, or candidate. They can also be charged with election interference by knowingly misrepresenting the facts. You know this would never happen. The media is protected as long as they keep supporting the Left.

These folks have drunk more Kool-Aid than a kid’s summer camp, especially since they lost all sense of credibility and fell in love with Barack Obama. This has created an era of unprecedented media bias favoring the Left. You only need to look at the biggest lies created by the Left and supported unequivocally by the legacy media:

Russia, Russia, Russia

The Hilary Clinton Fake Dosier

The Trump/Ukraine Phonecall

The Hunter Biden Laptop

January 6th Insurrection

Randi Weingarten/DOJ Connection

The 51 Intelligence Official Letter

In all of these instances, the media walked hand in hand with the hosts and was totally unified and in sync with the Democrat talking points. All of these stories were. Combine this with identity politics, and you have the current dilemma facing the Democrats. They want to replace Joe Biden and Kamala Harris but face three significant obstacles-Joe Biden, Jill Biden, and Kamala Harris. I contend the two ladies would be the most challenging obstacles. Removing the sitting Vice President, who happens to be a Black female, will be impossible. Jill Biden is a power-hungry individual and a wretched wife. She should have thrown the towel in for Joe years ago. These two women are immovable and remember one more factor. Joe Biden promised during the 2020 election he would be a one-term President. I guess that was just another Joe Biden lie!

When the G7 met a few weeks ago in Italy, Joe Biden had the highest approval rating of any head of state in attendance. This summit was the most significant meeting of the least popular politicians in the world. These politicians cannot accept the fact that their policies have failed the common man, and people wanted a change from the progressive left ideology.

They are so caught up in their self-importance that reality is beyond their grasp. How sad to think that Joe Biden won Mr. Popularity with a 38% approval rating. This meeting began the slide of doom for President Joe Biden.

France held their elections on Sunday, and the young progressive Emmanuel Macron took an absolute beating. The outcome was expected, but the swing back to the Right was significant and sent a message to every other country led by a progressive Left leader. That message is that we drank the Kool-Aid and gave you a chance to prove your way was better than that of a conservative centrist, and you failed. We were far better off living in the middle ground.

The far-right National Rally Party narrowly missed a majority. If it can expand its lead in the second round of voting on July 7, it could form the country’s first far-right government since World War II, with 28-year-old Bardella as prime minister, and replace Macron’s pro-Europe agenda with its populist and anti-immigration platform.

Macron did not acknowledge defeat. In a statement, he hailed the unusually high vote turnout and called for the same in the second round. But the projected results suggested that his gamble in calling for the elections had backfired spectacularly and that his influence over French politics was rapidly waning.

Macron said he would not resign and could stay on until his term expires in 2027, but he would face majority opposition with little recourse. The results of this election have sent shockwaves throughout Europe. Many other European leaders suffer from the same poor approval ratings as Macron and will probably face the same outcome when their voters go to the polls. France is the second-largest economy in the E.U. and a force in E.U. affairs.

Another concern is whether the French far-right might undermine Europe’s support for Ukraine and its stance on Russia. The National Party leaders are already challenging Macron’s hold on French foreign policy and defense, suggesting the president play a more honorary role as armed forces commander in chief.

Macron was the first fringe candidate to be elected outside the more traditional center-left and center-right parties that had dominated French politics for decades. Many in Europe feel that this move away from the more progressive policies will continue on both sides of the Atlantic. The Progressive parties have had years to prove their policies work, but they have failed across the globe.

The time it takes for the National Party to win a majority may require more rounds of elections, putting France in a stalemate position. There may be many changes in candidates before the second round, including many far-left candidates dropping out. This would leave many races with just two parties- the National Party and the New Popular Front coalition.

What is happening in France and across Europe is reflective of our American race and does not look favorable on a successful Biden bid for reelection. This is one time we Americans who live on the right hope that France is right.

The Democrats broke new ground when the White House coordinated with DAs and DOJ to bring multiple prosecutions against former president and current Candidate Donald Trump. When asked about Constitutionality, SCOTUS responded with a decidedly constitutional response.

Emphasis, mine.

A federal grand jury indicted former President Donald J. Trump on four counts for conduct that occurred during his Presidency following the November 2020 election. The indictment alleged that after losing that election, Trump conspired to overturn it by spreading knowingly false claims of election fraud to obstruct the collecting, counting, and certifying of the election results. Trump moved to dismiss the indictment based on Presidential immunity, arguing that a President has absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions performed within the outer perimeter of his official responsibilities, and that the indictment’s allegations fell within the core of his official duties. The District Court denied Trump’s motion to dismiss, holding that former Presidents do not possess federal criminal immunity for any acts. The D. C. Circuit affirmed. Both the District Court and the D. C. Circuit declined to decide whether the indicted conduct involved official acts.

Held: Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts. Pp. 5–43.

(a) This case is the first criminal prosecution in our Nation’s history of a former President for actions taken during his Presidency. Determining whether and under what circumstances such a prosecution may proceed requires careful assessment of the scope of Presidential power under the Constitution. The nature of that power requires that a former President have some immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts during his tenure in office. At least with respect to the President’s exercise of his core constitutional powers, this immunity must be absolute. As for his remaining official actions, he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity. Pp. 5–15.

I need to read the rest of the decision, but that seems to make it clear enough. Trump (Obama, Clinton, and Biden) has extensive immunity protection for actions while in office. Unofficial acts are not immune.

Decided 6-3 (Kagen, Sotomayor, and Jackson Dissenting – which really means they want Clinton and Obama left Open to prosecution: Biden is incompetent to stand trial so he’s safe).

More on this later.

The post Breaking: SCOTUS Decision Drops on Trump Presidential Immunity … appeared first on Granite Grok.

A Jaffrey, NH detransitioner is suing the local clinicians who brushed aside concerns about her autism and severe mental health disorders and pushed her down a path of testosterone and harmful, unnecessary surgeries. 

The plaintiff, Amanda Stewart, 39, suffers from physical deformities, chronic pain, bone weakness, and heart problems, as well as life-long regret. “She lives in daily pain from the effects of the unnecessary surgeries and years of taking enormous amounts of cross-sex hormones,” the suit states.

“They also took the natural beauty I possessed, so I lost any chance I could ever have with men,” Amanda said. “Then they took my fertility through surgery. Most men want a family and for their wife to at least look decently presentable and normal.”

“They prey on autistic people,” she said of gender clinicians. “I felt experimented upon to the point of financial and social ruination so that doctors, hospitals, and the pharmaceutical companies could get rich.”

The suit makes the following allegations:

• Dartmouth Health Endocrinologist John Turco misled Amanda into thinking she could become a man and administered high levels of testosterone beginning in 2007 when she was 22, She couldn’t give true informed consent because she was vulnerable and unstable. When she was 14 she suffered the trauma of her mother’s death. She had autism and a history of anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and paranoid thinking. Turco also disregarded the requirement that cross-sex hormones “should not be administered without adequate psychological and medical assessment before and during treatment,” according to the Benjamin Criteria, which determined Dartmouth Health’s standard at the time. These criteria were set by the Harry Benjamin International Gender Dysphoria Association which later became known as the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH). WPATH continues to determine standards of care for gender clinics.
• Dr. Turco ignored warnings that the testosterone was worsening her mental and physical health. For example, he continued to prescribe testosterone after she expressed concerns about skin rash and her bones feeling sore and hollow. She also had psychotic episodes leading to homelessness, and a hospitalization for delusional and paranoid thinking.  Amanda said she found testosterone addicting and that it caused mania. “I never knew what mania was until I took testosterone,” Amanda said. 
• Dr. Turco ignored evidence that Amanda’s mental health improved when she discontinued testosterone on her own and he continued to prescribe it. For example, he noted that when she stopped testosterone in 2014 she was the best he had seen her in years.
• Dr. Turco later recommended that she have a mastectomy to remove her healthy breasts as well as surgery to remove her uterus, and ovaries, and “vaginectomy with closure” without letters of recommendation from mental health professionals.
•  In 2011, Dartmouth Health Plastic Surgeon Mitchell Stotland removed her healthy breasts without a letter of recommendation from a mental health professional. “Despite Amanda’s mental health issues, Dr. Stotland inexplicably noted that Amanda was ‘stable psychologically.'” She suffered complications from the surgery.
•  In 2012, Obstetrician and Gynecologist Valerie Bell performed the hysterectomy and oophorectomy, and closed her vagina at St. Joseph Hospital, Nashua, despite not having letters of recommendation from mental health professionals. “Dr. Bell had recommended these procedures despite noting certain concerns for ‘psychiatric problems.'”
• Counselor Michel Finegan of Monadnock Family Services encouraged Amanda to continue taking testosterone when she questioned whether it was good for her. “Mr. Finegan encouraged Amanda to continue taking testosterone without establishing that she was an appropriate candidate under the Benjamin Criteria. He advised her to “sit in the discomfort and not change anything in the hope of gaining insight and awareness of self.” 
• Primary Care Physician Jennifer E. Madden, M.D. “cleared” Amanda for a double mastectomy and hysterectomy despite not having letters of support from mental health professionals. Madden, who identifies as a transgender woman, was affiliated with St. Joseph Hospital. Madden recommended the mastectomy based on the speculation that “she might become more functional in society.”
• Dr. Bell, Dr. Stotland, Dr. Turco, and Dr. Madden misrepresented that surgeries were medically necessary and that there were no alternatives. They also didn’t accurately describe the permanent consequences of these surgeries.

Related: Is Dartmouth Health’s Pediatric Gender Clinic Destroying Kids’ Sexual Function?

Other defendants in the lawsuit are Dartmouth Health, St. Joseph Hospital, Cheshire Medical Center, and Monadnock Family Services. Specific allegations are medical malpractice and negligence, civil conspiracy, and negligent infliction of emotional distress.

Amanda is represented by Concord NH Attorney Roy S. McCandless on behalf of Campbell Miller Payne, a law firm specializing in justice for detransitioners.

The post New Hampshire Woman Sues Doctors for Gruesome “Gender Affirming Care” appeared first on Granite Grok.

There has been much speculation about the lengths to which the Left-Led Bordeau-sipping, uniparty ruling-class political supremacists might go to keep Donald Trump from ever setting foot in the Oval Office again. Would they, could they, have him killed? Surprise, they have a similar problem with Joe Biden.

The long-game speculation from myself and many others has been that this Democrat primary business was all a charade, and the donor class and the people running the DNC (and even a few folks inside the Biden administration) had a plan B. Politically abort Joe for medical reasons and replace him with someone viable.

Who that someone is has been of equal interest with names including Whitmer, Newsom, Michelle Obama, and even Hillary Clinton (who has apparently raised her hand and said, hey coach, put me in). But the party of death has a problem. Whoever runs the Biden administration is as wont to cling to the power they’ve got (and why not? Everyone will blame Joe for their mistakes) as any other cabal of oligarchs managing their puppet deposit.

We like our high-paying, perk-loaded jobs, and look, we get to “run” the country (into the ground), and we won’t get any blame. That’s on Joe, who can’t count to ten anymore without help. Some other Democrat might push us out the door or off to some less high-profile posting. Joe stays, we stay.

But, but, but, that debate thing, you say. It was a disaster. Months of media lies were unmasked, the way you might rip off a bandaid, but it feels like it was pulled off slowly instead, tearing every hair along with it. But Team Biden, whatever that means, isn’t interested in stepping aside, down, or anywhere else. They are in it to lose it come what may, and that has piled additional dismay onto the shit-wagon of worries after Thursday’s expose on the mental state of President Joseph R. Biden.

The liar-in-chief is now claiming he doesn’t debate well, as if that explains what we saw.

Sorry, but a few cans short of a six-pack doesn’t begin to approach what America witnessed, and the Media can no longer deny it. CNN didn’t deep fake that. Joe Biden is the single most significant negative to the outcome up and down the  November ticket.

Millions of registered Democrats aren’t all-in on abortion at birth, or open borders, so some may be willing to sit November out or vote the other way (‘cuz the economy, crime, etc.). Some of them were thinking about voting Red Instead of Blue.

Are they legitimate swing voters now, no longer under any allusion about the state of their Commander and Chief? Is he the threat to national security his opponents have long claimed? It seems so, and there’s no hiding that, so all the Left has left is to insist Trump is a liar, cheat, fraud (in other words, He’s Joe Biden), and a dictator even though he never was in his first term.

You can’t vote for that! He’s mean, a liar, and a despot. Just ask anyone who agrees with us.

Oh, and Joe is the other choice.

Actually, RFK Jr. is the other choice, and he may benefit from this inescapable public turn of events, but we’ll have to wait on larger polls to see how that needle moved. If it did, it wouldn’t be good for Joe, who, as we’ve said, isn’t getting out of the race.

There is speculation that it is too late, anyway. What if there is no way to “replace” him short of a 25th amendment action that leaves them with President Kamala, which, believe it or not, Democrats probably view as worse? It’s quite the pickle, so here’s another question. Would the Dems resort to regicide to clear the way? They’d have to remove both Biden and Kamala and then blame it on right-wing extremists. I wouldn’t put it past the Clintons or the Obamas, but they have motivation. A Republican president following the abuses of the Biden administration might feel inclined to use its precedents to send prosecutors after Bill, Hillary, Barack, or any number of higher-ranking left-lead uniparty scions.

It’s all speculative theory, of course. I don’t want anyone assassinating anyone, and in this bizarre expiration of theory, both men have Secret Service details, so add the internal political chess match required to overcome that into the calculus. But the rabid dog of the left just painted itself into a corner, and we know it does not want to relinquish power. What will it do?

Anything is possible, including starting WWIII and declaring martial law. Let’s hope Joe can’t remember the launch codes and whoever has them doesn’t want to burn the world to keep Trump out of office. But, you have to wonder. Would they rather destroy America than give even a little of it back?

The post Would They Kill Him if They Had Too? appeared first on Granite Grok.

The old TreeHugger site, that batch of green on the outside but red on the inside Eco-Socialists, is gone forever. All of the DISQUS comments have been wiped out, and most of the more fun (e.g., combative) posts have also been deleted, including those by Lloyd Alter, who, I thought, was always on a Greenie track (with a socialist kicker of “Eat the Rich”).

Steve had voluntarily created a nice logo for me to you as the “Featured Image” (the images you see at the top of all of our posts – Steve makes sure that EVERY post has one for SEO purposes):

I thought it was MARVELOUS! And he’s much better than I am at this (my sad sack for Lloyd above – I make no bones about it that I almost failed stick figures in Junior High art class.  That said, I am trying to figure out how to use AI to create some images for me, as I certainly can’t.

Thankfully, from the standpoint of creating content fodder, he is now “blogging” / writing at Substack: Carbon Upfront!  (thus, “Substack Comments” instead of “DISQUS Comments,” where he concentrates on eliminating the use of carbon in building anything as it is killing us all and the planet. Funny, however, he never answers my questions about WHO is going to control/mandate/police that whole process (but it does give me leave to poke fun at him for his socialist/communist ways as he knows that I know that he knows there’s only one way to do it – MASSIVE Govt).

My, my, even with that, he actually invited me to his new digs so I promptly started to do what I did over at TH – come at his ideas from a different point of view than his academic/cultural bubble had. So, during my “semi-retirement,” I built up a few “comment posts-to-be” there, and it’s now time to start using them.

One of his recent posts is labeled “Cars need design for disassembly and repairability,” where he’s rather upset that Tesla, in its mantra of squeezing out every unneeded cost it can, violates his sensibilities that everything must be made repairable. Regardless, it raises the upfront cost of a product (including the expensive Teslas). To wit: Tesla’s adoption of “Gigacasting,” in which a lot of the Tesla body is now going to be made of one piece:

And then we have Tesla. According to energy and transport analyst Michael Sura, Tesla is “gigacasting” bigger and bigger pieces of their cars. While high-pressure die casting (HPDC) has been used to make complex parts for years, Tesla is making bigger and bigger parts. Sura writes on Linkedin:

“Traditionally, car manufacturers integrate numerous stamped, forged, extruded, and cast elements of their vehicle structures, connecting, welding, and gluing these components together in the production process. During the gig casting process, a molten liquid aluminum alloy is pressed into a mold under high pressure, resulting in the formation of large three-dimensional shapes with a relatively high level of precision. A large single gigacasted component can replace 50, 70, or even more individual parts.”

Lloyd is having hissy fits because unlike his old, old VW Bug, a Tesla (and Volvos and other manufacturers doing the same things) if something breaks, we all can’t fix it. Instead, we will have to buy that one HUGE piece if it gets crushed even a little (instead of one of the smaller pieces that formerly required multiple steps during the manufacturing process and added cost). It may even mean that a car gets totaled for what used to be a smallish repair.

Lloyd forgets that even running into a curbstone sidewalk with an EV could result in the battery bank getting bumped badly and the car getting totaled—after all, the battery is on that now huge structure, and any deformation of that is VERY likely to damage it. Can you say “S’mores on the highway” when it goes blooey?

So I decided to comment that EVs and their gig casting may not be as big of a problem as he thinks and from a different perspective than what he wanted:

Meanwhile, in other VW news: “Fossil Fuels Remain The Future. VW To Invest 60 Billion Euros In Combustion Engines!

In a surprising move, Volkswagen announced it plans to invest 60 billion euros in the development of new combustion engines as confidence in electric mobility plummets in Germany and elsewhere.

“This change in strategy shows that the transition to electromobility is progressing more slowly than expected,” reports Germany’s Blackout News here. “Just last year, Volkswagen assumed that electric cars would account for 80 percent of annual sales in Europe by the end of the decade. However, the lukewarm reception for its own ID models is forcing the company to adjust its strategy.” Also see (motor1: 07.06.24).

As German sales of electric vehicles fall way short of government targets due to their unpopularity and high costs, manufacturers are seeing the writing on the wall: Electric mobility still has a long way to go.

Reality check…”    https://open.substack.com/pub/lloydalter/p/cars-need-design-for-disassembly

Remember, Lloyd hates, Hates, HATES cars. Gas-powered FAR more than EVs but hates ALL cars. He wants Rack’em and Stack’em dense cities that are “walkable,” and if you have to go anywhere, use public transportation, walk, or bike. So telling him that the lesser of cars aren’t turning out the way he will at least put up with (’cause it ain’t a carbon emitter) was the way to go.

However, another transplant from TH, Bob Baal, a New Zealander, decided to answer the above with rose-colored glasses supporting the EV viewpoint. Funny that he had to pick on what here in the States is a luxury car that few can afford:

BMW seems to have a different opinion

“BERLIN, Jan 10 (Reuters) – BMW (BMWG.DE), opens new tab is investing 650 million euros ($711 million) to convert its main plant in Munich to exclusively produce EVs from the end of 2027, the carmaker said on Wednesday, a major stepping stone in the transition to the electric age.”

“”The tipping point for combustion engines was last year,” declared BMW’s Chief Financial Officer, Walter Mertl, effectively drawing a line under the era of unbridled ICE growth. “

“Meanwhile, BMW’s electrified fleet is experiencing a record-breaking surge. Sales of electric BMWs, Minis, and Rolls-Royces rocketed 74.4 percent in 2023, propelling EVs to a 15 percent share of the company’s 2.56 million-unit total output.

This momentum is set to continue, with BMW aiming to ramp up EV share to 33 per cent by 2026 and a staggering 50 per cent by the end of the decade.”

Or from VW itself

“EVs are the future, but combustion era ‘is not over,’ VW CFO says”

?Of the €180 billion ($196 billion) set aside in 2023 for research and development, the German brand said it would use more than two-thirds on “electrification and digitalization.”?

So lots of EV and PHEV from VW. Hardly the abandonment of EV’s.

“As German sales of GERMAN electric vehicles fall way short of GERMAN government targets due to their unpopularity and high costs, GERMAN manufacturers are seeing the writing on the wall as NON-GERMAN EV sales mushroom.

Fixed that for you.

Sales of PHEV and BV are online to be 1 in 12 of new cars in 2024. For every BEV sold this month in 2020 4 are being sold now.

I went contrarian to show that the rosy glasses seem to be getting darker and darker as we hoi polloi aren’t buying what’s being sold, literally:

Ford and GM are cutting back on EV investment and production (Ford losing $132K USD for each EV). Fisker just went Chapter 11 bankruptcy. So did Lordstown. Rivian isn’t doing well either.

So, President Biden had $7 billion USD to build EV chargers all over the country. $7 Billion.

8…count them…8 sites have been built thus far. And folks wonder why I’m a government skeptic – and loudly proclaim that this is not a Constitutionally permitted activity by the Federal government (States, however, are a different beast – they can if they want).

Much of the private charging sites (Tesla mostly excluded) are hit or miss on whether they work or not (mostly not).

And now my local TV station has been running clips on how range is much diminished with EVs in the heat (batteries are being drained in keeping the batteries cool; nice tech but it doesn’t help in getting where you want to go). This is in addition to the clips this past winter about the same problem.

Gotta keep’em warm, too!

And more than a few on EV school buses, costing twice to three times the price of gas/diesel ones, not being able to be used in the northern part of the US. Mountainous areas? Forgettabout it!

Let’s see how BMW goes.

I didn’t say abandon but we’re seeing the aftereffects of the over-exuberance of EV Future. IMHO, after the frenzied & large scale rollout, now that early adopters and virtue-signalers, the market is certainly pulling back – resale prices on used EVs is crashing. Almost half of EV users (https://www.eenews.net/articles/46-of-american-ev-drivers-want-to-go-back-to-gas-cars-report/) are looking to go back to gas powered cars.

Bottom line is that I’m agnostic to either EV or ICE as long as it gets me to where I want to go in hauling the people and stuff that needs to go with me without worrying about range and reliability. What I am NOT agnostic about is having govt ramming it down my throat via laws or biasing regulations in forcing its choice upon me.

Funny, nobody has taken that on yet.

Anyway, more to come as I have lots on my stack of stuff!

The “Democrat” Party … the party of angry, shrill women and weak, feckless, leaf-eating beta-males. Perhaps no State better exemplifies that than New Hampshire.

Here is State Senate candidate Ben Ming, who is going to bring diversity to the State Senate by regurgitating the Left’s abortion is “reproductive healthcare” trope while reminding us that he is Asian. Hey, beta-boy, abortion is the antithesis of reproduction.

In January 2024, there was a meeting of the New Hampshire House State-Federal Relations and Veteran Affairs committee. The committee heard two separate bills on secession.

The first one, CACR 20, would be a constitutional amendment that would see the people of NH vote to amend the constitution to say that if the federal government’s national debt reaches $40 trillion, New Hampshire shall peacefully secede from the union.
The second one, HB1130 would form a commission to study everything we would need to know about secession, such as economic impact.

This is video of the full public hearing for both bills and the people’s testimonies.

On Wednesday morning, NHexit.US announced that local liberty activists in New Hampshire have hired a chartered airplane pilot to fly a pro-independence banner over the three largest cities in the state. Over the past few years, the calls for serious discussions on peaceful separation of New Hampshire from DC and the union have grown dramatically. New Hampshire is already home to the most influential liberty movement in the world.

Notable events since 2021 include:

• legislation to place an independence referendum on the ballot which was sponsored by nine lawmakers in the New Hampshire House
• a poll by SurveyUSA finding that almost 100% of NH residents strongly resent the federal government and 29% are ready to secede immediately
• increasing demands by lawmakers and the centrist governor telling the DC tyrants to back off 
• An abundance of pro-independence sentiment, including flags for the Granite Republic, hats, T-shirts, books, articles, and podcasts, and even a national anthem

This Saturday, an airplane banner could be added to that list. The tentative plan is for the banner to fly over Nashua, Manchester, and Concord. If you look up while in one of these cities, you just might be able to snap a photo or record a video of the banner. We encourage our readers to post their photos to social media with the tags #NHexit, #secession, and #NHpolitics. 

Additionally, the question of secession will be asked by another highly reputable pollster. The University of New Hampshire is currently conducting a political survey that includes multiple questions related to New Hampshire independence. The results could be published within days or a few weeks. 

 

 

The post Secession Airplane Banner Flying Over Merrimack Valley Saturday appeared first on Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.

A recent poll conducted by SurveyUSA on behalf of the Foundation for New Hampshire Independence (FNHI) shows that while the peaceful separation of New Hampshire from the federal government has low support among politicians, it has significant support among registered voters.

According to an overwhelming number of respondents, the people of the United States are getting more and more divided over important issues like LGBT rights, guns, abortion, election integrity, race relations, involvement in foreign wars, climate change, immigration, and so on (91%).  Nearly as many fear that if this trend continues, it will lead to increases in political violence (89%).

Large majorities of respondents agreed that the federal government doesn’t have their best interests in mind (67%); that it violates their rights more than it protects those rights (65%); that it produces laws, regulations, and court rulings that are incompatible with New Hampshire’s culture of freedom (63%); and that its financial decisions and economic regulations hurt our livelihoods, and could lead to inflation and bankruptcy (77%).

In short, 63% of respondents feel that their state can be trusted more than the federal government.

One possible way forward would be for New Hampshire to begin ignoring federal laws and regulations regarding matters reserved to the States by the 10th Amendment. Fewer than half of respondents believe that the federal government should be able to force New Hampshire to follow federal mandates and laws regarding cannabis (27%), medicine (37%), public health (42%), education (41%), welfare (42%, firearms (42%), businesses (38%), and abortion (33%).

This approach, also referred to as ‘nullification’ is common, currently being utilized by dozens of states, and is consistent with the recent enactment of New Hampshire HB 1178, ‘prohibiting the state from enforcing any federal statute, regulation, or Presidential Executive Order that restricts or regulates the right of the people to keep and bear arms’. 

However, a more comprehensive way forward would be for New Hampshire to reclaim its sovereignty, peacefully separating from the federal government to govern itself as an independent country, an idea that was supported by 29% of respondents and 52% of Republicans. Only 58% of respondents do not support immediate and full secession from the federal government today. More than 2/5 of respondents agreed that the state should be able to do this without securing permission from the federal government (43%). And only 3% of respondents would support the use of military force by the federal government to interfere with such a separation.

Again, while politicians declined to put the question to the people, more than 2/5 of respondents support the idea of placing independence on the ballot (42%) while only 47% currently oppose it.

History is filled with proposals that seemed at first to be politically impossible, but after serious discussion and evolving circumstances, proved to be politically inevitable. To take just one example, shall-issue laws for concealed carry licenses, once viewed as extreme, are now the law in nearly every state. As the results of this poll show, peaceful separation already has more support now than shall-issue laws had in 1990. Today, not only is shall-issue the norm, but 25 states allow their residents to carry concealed guns without even requiring a permit. If New Hampshire independence follows a similar path, it may only be a few short years away from broad adoption. 

The survey also found strong support for independence and extreme discontent with DC politicians among all 8 states polled. In Texas, 90% of Republicans recently endorsed putting secession on the ballot, officially placing the position in their platform. California progressives have a strong independence movement of their own, and surveys show that around half of Californians support or are open to independence from the union. Progressives in Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington also support independence. States like South Carolina, Florida, and many other states have new independence movements that are rapidly growing, as well. 

The post New Hampshire Survey Shows Disdain For DC, Support For Independence appeared first on Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.

Over the past few weeks, a group of pro-freedom activists in New Hampshire has been holding informal meetings to brainstorm how to best promote independence in the next legislative session. Predictably, progressive authoritarians have already begun to attack the concepts of independence and liberty. A few conservatives cling to hope that they can fix DC and all 50 states, convince all Democrats to embrace conservative liberty values, and ‘save America’. 

 

I have written dozens of articles, published three books, and produced hundreds of videos making the case for a national divorce from the authoritarians. Here are just 100 reasons why every New Hampshire citizen who supports freedom should support a bill and a ballot referendum on independence from DC. 

 

1. Without the federal income tax, we’d each save around $25,000/year right off the bat.
2. The IRS is corrupt, tyrannical, and about to grow by 80,000 employees and billions of dollars. Years ago, they were caught targeting conservatives. Now, they are surely much more polarized and hateful against us. I could live without them.
3. The ATF is extremely anti-gun. They have been one of the biggest reasons that federal gun control laws have grown increasingly strict. The ATF passes laws and bypasses Congress. Once the murderous criminal, Dave Chipman is confirmed as the new ATF director, things will get much worse. I could live without the ATF. Once we divorce DC by declaring independence from the union, the ATF will no longer have jurisdiction over us. 
4. The CDC is out of control, and the agency will only ever grow more tyrannical. This was before corona-fascism made the CDC into the most harmful agency to liberty of all 400 illegal executive agencies. By the way, did you know that the CDC took legal ownership over every rental property in the united states?
5. I don’t trust Joe Biden to run my life or to do anything that could impact me. I have around 28 trillion reasons for distrusting that corrupt, evil, demented sociopath. 
6. I don’t trust Congress to run my life. They have proven time and again that they support authoritarian socialism. Even with majorities in the House and the Senate and even with Trump in the White House, Congress did nearly nothing to expand liberty. But they did pass many laws that violated my natural rights. 
7. The federal government benefits from terribly untrustworthy elections, such as the one in 2020. Once HR1 passes into law, all elections in the united states will be required to abide by the same insane rules that caused us all to doubt the legitimacy of the 2020 election.
8. Once HR51 passes into law, DC will be a state, complete with two more hardcore socialist Senators. The Democrats will control the Senate forever.
9. If you aren’t a big fan of sobriety checkpoints, you’ll be happy to learn that they are federally funded. Once we divorce the feds, it’s unlikely that any local police dept. will spend the money on the checkpoints. 
10. If you aren’t a big fan of immigration checkpoints, you’ll be happy to learn that they are federally funded and/or conducted. Once we divorce the feds, it’s unlikely that any local police dept. will spend the money on the checkpoints. 
11.  Local cops only use tanks, drones, BEARcats, and other aggressive military gear against us because the feds give them those toys. Once we cut ties with DC, our local cops will return to their proper role as peace officers instead of acting as soldiers against us.
12. One of the reasons that Dictator Sununu locked us down and derailed our economy involved pressure and money from DC encouraging him to do so. 
13. If you don’t like being forced to pay for the DC politicians to wage futile endless wars in dozens of countries all over the world while veterans, women, and babies in our own communities starve on the streets, it means you want to separate from DC. 
14. If you are ready to give up on the war on drugs and stop sending cops to homes to punish people for consuming a plant, separating from DC is the first step you must take. DC politicians STILL consider cannabis a schedule one top-tier dangerous substance that is 100% illegal to possess. 
15. Do you love it when cops steal your property (car, house, money, guns, etc.) without convicting you of a crime? Well, federal law allows law enforcement to seize any property that could be involved in a past, present, or even future crime. And the feds have ‘extended’ that authority to state and local cops. Once we sever ties with DC, cops in NH lose the power of civil asset forfeiture.
16. If you ever wondered why bad cops almost never receive any punishment, you should know that ‘qualified immunity’ is a federal doctrine. Without DC, local cops become much more accountable to their neighbors.
17. The millions of federal regulations cost businesses over 2 trillion dollars each year in lost productivity. Once we divorce DC, our businesses will truly be able to unleash their creativity, making New Hampshire more prosperous than we could ever imagine.
18. Who should decide whether NH accepts illegal aliens or Afghan refugees? Biden and Pelosi or our governor and legislature?
19. Are you tired of being ruled by nine lawyers in long black robes who live in DC and have the power of Gods? If five out of the nine rule a certain way, that becomes the law for all 330,000,000 people in the united states.  
20. The federal reserve and DC politicians have overseen a decline in 99% of the US dollar’s purchasing power over the past century.
21. DC politicians have run up a debt of 28 trillion dollars and counting. And they claim that you and I are responsible for it. 
22. Nearly every politician has ambitions and eventually wishes to be sent to DC. This affects nearly every decision they make. Once DC is no longer in their minds, they will focus on what is most important: you.
23. Federal law enforcement (including the FBI) have shown themselves to be thoroughly corrupt. Even conservative commentators like Dan Bongino have called for their abolition. A few months ago, the FBI and other federal cops came to New Hampshire and violently kidnapped six of my friends. They are charging them with crimes that could result in them spending the remainder of their lives in federal prison. Their excuse? That my friends committed some victimless crimes by using and selling cryptocurrency. Once we leave DC, that will never happen again. 
24. Want a suppressor so that you can save your hearing? They are only illegal because the feds prohibit them. Without the feds, NH would be totally free, and you could put a suppressor on your SBR without any worries. 
25. Are you worried about increasingly strict EPA restrictions on vehicles, houses, and everything else? Once we divorce DC, they will have no jurisdiction over us.
26. Are you sick of random federal judges issuing injunctions that overrule actual laws passed by Congress or state legislatures? An independent NH would not have to worry one bit about federal judges.
27. The DC politicians are destroying the once-mighty American military. Their current secretary of defense and commander-in-chief continually insist that the #1 priority for their military is pleasing LGBT individuals. An independent New Hampshire could have a military with a top priority of defending us against hostile militaries. As it should be.
28. Have you accumulated a respectable net worth? Soon, the federal government will tax your net worth each year in addition to all of the other taxes. 
29. The US Congress literally does not represent you or me.
30. The federal government hates you. Especially if you are white. 
31. Multiple federal court rulings have declared that the first amendment does not protect any speech that is insulting, especially towards a government agent. 
32. Right now, even policies that you think are set by state lawmakers are really controlled by the feds via extortion. 
33. If the thought of Pelosi’s Capitol Police Force growing worries you …. You might support NH independence from DC. 
34. If you would rather have your highway taxes spent on highways … You might be a NHexiter.
35. Do you think that Facebook and Twitter are too powerful and too damaging to liberty? Federal law grants them effective immunity from lawsuits while also granting them the power to manipulate content. They get to act as both a publisher and a platform, whichever suits them at the moment. 
36. If you support sound, free-market money like gold and silver (and crypto) ….You already support NHexit. It’s only a matter of time before the feds ban them.
37. If you are afraid that Donald Trump might become President again …. You just might be a NHexiter.
38. If you are afraid that Kamala Harris might become President…. You just might be a NHexiter.
39. If you think that Title IX is a major reason that free speech and due process in colleges were destroyed, you support NHexit.
40. If you believe that boys should not have a free pass to the girls’ bathrooms, locker rooms, and showers, you support NH independence. 
41. If you can’t count the billions of federal laws….you might support independence.
42. The FDA hurts and kills patients by stifling innovation and preventing people from using medications until the FDA spends decades of time and billions of dollars approving them.
43. Cutting ties with DC would immediately and drastically cut prices and improve the availability of drugs like epinephrine, insulin, loperamide, and many others. 
44. DC politicians use the federal department of education to brainwash your children to hate freedom. Once we are independent, that goes away.
45. The federal government believes that showing online ads to specific cohorts is a crime.
46. If you are not comfortable with the REAL ID becoming a dystopian federal identification card, you might be an NHexit supporter.  
47. Support in Congress for a magazine ban is getting very close to a majority. In a few years, your magazines will be federally illegal. 
48. Once HR127 passes Congress, every firearm will be effectively illegal. Hope you’re ready to turn in your guns to the feds! You are a patriot and not a criminal, so you’d never violate federal law, right? 
49. It is very likely that Congress (or federal regulators) ban armor plates for all civilians very soon. Hope you’re ready to turn in your plates!
50. Even the best ‘conservatives’ in DC are working with Bloomberg to take away your guns.
51. Technically speaking…the federal government should not exist anymore. 
52. Federal judges have ruled that police have no legal obligation to protect you. 
53. The federal government thinks it can take your property by force, as long as it plans to use the property for anything that could benefit the government, including giving your property to companies like Pfizer. Without DC, states and localities have no power of eminent domain (AKA theft of property).
54. Federal politicians from Biden to McConnell and everyone in between consistently sell us out to oligarchs like Putin and Xi to enrich themselves. 
55. We can’t take power back from Congress, even with a Convention of States.
56. The DC politicians incentivize single motherhood and discourage employment. 
57. If you don’t believe that global warming is the biggest threat to our lives, you should not be in the same union as DC, the federal government, and the other states. 
58. If you don’t appreciate being spied on by the NSA and other creepy DC agents and politicians, you should consider divorcing them. 
59. If you don’t want to support the Taliban by providing them with money and military weapons and helicopters, you should leave the union and stop paying federal taxes. 
60. The federal government considers people guilty until proven innocent – the opposite of how it was supposed to be. Peaceful protesters have been receiving punishments in prison for months despite never being convicted. If you support due process, you support NHexit.
61. The federal TSA regularly violates our natural rights, despite literally missing 95% of actual threats. 
62. DC politicians maintain a horrifically managed ‘no-fly list’, which mistakenly puts many people (including babies) onto the list, preventing them from flying. It’s also nearly impossible to get off of the list. 
63. Conservatives from Candace Owens to Matt Walsh have spoken in support of state independence from DC. 
64. Federal government leaders believe that if you don’t wear all the masks they recommend and if you don’t get all of the vaccines they recommend, you are just like the Taliban suicide bombers. 
65. DC politicians prohibit beneficial pipelines that would have been amazing for our national security and economy while simultaneously supporting pipelines for nations that are hostile to us. 
66. Who is arming the violent Mexican drug cartels? Federal agents from DC!
67. The federal government has kidnapped innocent Japanese people and put them in concentration camps. New Hampshire has never done that. And they couldn’t ever do that. Because we all have lots of guns. 
68. The US government banned firearms and ammunition from Russia. New Hampshire would never do that.
69. The US government puts many kids in cages at the border. New Hampshire would handle immigration in a much more sensible and humane way. 
70. Things will literally never change for the better. Even with Trump in the White House and Republicans controlling Congress and the SCOTUS, freedom only diminished and tyranny continued to grow.
71. New Hampshire citizens are the hardest workers and earn the most money, which is demonstrated by our continent-leading median household income. We don’t need DC politicians to be wealthy.
72. New Hampshire is the freest state. Nearly all of our issues are caused by federal laws. Once we are independent, we will be almost 100% free to live as we please!
73. New Hampshire is the safest state. We don’t need DC or other states bringing violence to our peaceful paradise. 
74. Half of the people in the united states believe that Biden was legitimately elected and that Republicans are all traitors, while the other half believes that Biden lost the election and progressives are traitors. How could one country be united if its people hate each other so much? 
75. The DC politicians now feel so entitled to infinite power that they essentially ban medications that could help treat COVID, such as hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. 
76. DC politicians are so arrogant that they no longer feel the need to pass legislation in Congress; they now use executive orders to pass new laws, including the most recent one forcing all private companies in the united states with over 100 employees to vaccinate their employees or test them for COVID weekly. This will affect 80 million employees. If you don’t want DC sociopaths coming between you and your employer (or you and your doctor), you support independence. 
77. When conservative states began having success treating COVID with monoclonal antibodies Biden and DC politicians began to BLOCK the life-saving treatments from getting to pro-freedom anti-Biden states like Alabama and Florida, potentially causing people to die.
78. DC politicians have made it clear that they will continue to prioritize foreign nationals and illegal immigrants over American citizens like you and me.
79. On the other hand, DC politicians have made it very clear that Cuban immigrants are not welcome here (because they tend to vote for freedom and against communism). 
80. The Biden IRS is now going to monitor every bank account with over $600 in it so that they can tax all people who make any money in any way. Those who receive more than $600 in PayPal transactions in a year will also be subject to taxation, according to experts. Peaceful separation solves this IRS issue because the IRS would no longer have any jurisdiction over us. 
81. When NH adopted federal food laws, it made selling mushrooms illegal, among many other prohibitions. Now, the only way to make it legal for anyone in NH to sell mushrooms is to create more regulation requiring ‘licenses’, which is somewhat counterproductive. The only other way to make mushrooms legal in NH would be to sever ties with DC. 
82. Dictator Biden nominated an actual Soviet communist to be the comptroller of the currency. If you don’t want your country’s financial system to be run by an avowed communist, you support separation from DC.  
83. On 10/8/21, the preliminary deal on a GLOBAL tax on businesses was officially agreed to. A total of 136 countries have signed onto the measure, guaranteeing that they will work together to stomp out businesses seeking to evade taxes by implementing at least a 15% tax on them, no matter where they come from. Once New Hampshire becomes a self-governing state, its low (or absent) tax on business could attract so much business to the state that it could cause the biggest economic boom in world history. 
84. Dictator Biden’s OSHA implemented a vaccine mandate for nearly every worker in the united states. It is extremely unlikely that an individual could beat this in federal courts or via federal legislation. Separating from the union is actually the more practical way to nullify this mandate. 
85. A federal law to require all new cars to have passive drunk-driving monitoring technology is about to go into effect, making all cars in the united states more expensive and much more intrusive. The law does not specify, but the new technology may be tantamount to perpetual breathalyzers and/or eye monitoring in every car. 
86. The medical system and all medical institutions in the united states are becoming increasingly racist towards whites, and it all starts with DC politicians. 
87. The Supreme Court is composed of 9 judges. The SCOTUS is perhaps the most powerful entity in the united states now. These nine judges are either evil or mentally retarded. They certainly do not believe in freedom. Is that who you want to be ruled by?
88. The US House of Representatives passed legislation that would take over control of elections, taking the power that always resided with the states and granting it to DC politicians. Among the many measures in the legislative package was a law that prohibited any election in the united states from requiring ID in order to vote. New Hampshire citizens who would like to retain their voter ID law must either support secession or give up voter ID forever once this federal law passes. 
89. DC politicians just passed a law mandating that all vehicles made after 2026 be equipped with perpetual monitoring systems to detect ‘impaired driving’. The vehicles must also have ‘kill switches’ that allow cops to turn them off at any moment. If you don’t like this policy, secession is the only solution. 
90. In the summer of 2022, federal government will begin to require facial recognition/uploading pictures of your face in order to access tax/ documents on the IRS website.
91. The President announced that the next US Supreme Court Judge he nominates will be a black woman. Upon joining the court, she will likely hear a massively important case involving ‘affirmative action’.
92. DC politicians are literally stealing our organs. In 2021, a policy change at UNOS essentially caused nearly all organs from donors in New Hampshire to be sent to NYC, CT, and MA, harming New Hampshire’s patients who desperately need organs to live. DC is viciously fighting NH legislation that would allow Granite Staters to state their preference that their neighbors be granted priority over foreigners if they pass away with viable organs. 
93. The brilliant experts in DC are using $30,000,000 in taxpayer funds to give out drug paraphernalia, including crack pipes, to drug users. The statement from the DC politicians specifically mentioned that they are being distributed primarily to minorities and that they are to be used for illegal drugs. 
94. Our Lords in DC believe that they must force New Hampshire to build more housing projects so that our state could look more like the Bronx.  
95. Our brilliant Lords in DC are destroying our savings and devaluing our salaries by printing so much money that annual inflation is now at a frightening 9.1% annual rate.
96. DC politicians have been forcing you and me to pay for dangerous bioweapons labs in Ukraine for years. 
97. Your federal tax dollars are being used to pay Tik Tok influencers to create and promote propaganda approved by Dictator Biden. If you don’t want to be forced to fund such endeavors, you may want to consider secession. 
98. If you don’t enjoy paying $6 billion for the annual NIAID budget doled out by Anthony Fauci to fund foreign bioweapons labs and development and approval of ludicrously expensive patented pharmaceuticals and suppress use of cheap off-patent drug, you should consider supporting a vote of NH residents to leave the union.
99. The federal government violates free speech in numerous ways. Leaving their jurisdiction solves these issues and restores freedom of speech, expression, press, association, and worship. 
100. The federal government is increasingly racist. Most recently, Dictator Biden nominated a black woman to be a judge on the highest court because of her gender and skin color. Ironically, she will likely soon be ruling on an affirmative action case.
