As the number of attacks on our military installations and personnel in the Middle East by Iran proxy groups, many, including me, have asked where is the retaliation by the Biden Administration. The number of attacks reached 165 when three of our service people were killed in their barracks at a post called Tower 22. This post is located at the spot where Iraq, Jordan, and Syria meet.

There were also as many as 50 who suffered injuries from this drone attack. This drone, which may have come from within Syria, may have escaped detection because it arrived at Tower 22 while the post expected a U.S. drone to return.

This string of attacks since October 7 is but another in a series of missteps by the Biden Administration that includes the debacle exit of our troops from Afghanistan, the billions of dollars given to Ukraine without accountability, and the mixed signals given to our number one ally in the Middle East, Israel. These miscues, which is a kind descriptive, have led to a very low confidence level in our military by Americans.

It is this confidence level that makes me rethink my stance on retaliation. If I thought that this Administration could plan and execute a significant attack on Iran or its proxy nations and be prepared for counterattacks, then I would continue to push for those attacks. I do not think the Biden Administration and our current leadership at the Pentagon can carry out this mission. In the meantime, attacks by Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis will continue, and so will the count.

One of the primary functions of the Federal Government is the safety of its people. We are not safe with Joe Biden in the White House. Whether it is destroying our Southern Border, allowing a Chinese spy balloon to traverse our country while it acquires data on our domestic military bases, or poor policies in the Middle East and Europe, we do not have a President who has our safety as a priority. President Biden and Secretary Lloyd Austin are failing Americans by their incompetence.

The facts get old because they do not change. Biden does nothing to bring about change. He claimed for ten days in January that he was in daily contact with Secretary Austin when the Secretary was AWOL. He was hospitalized but neglected to tell anyone, including the President, where he was, yet Biden claimed to have secure meetings with him every day. Who was the President meeting with daily? One leader is missing, and the other is lying, and we are supposed to have confidence in these men planning an assault on an adversary who has now killed three of our brave soldiers. I now hope that Biden does nothing.

Biden is our Commander in Chief. There should be no question as to whether he called the families of these lost heroes or would be on the tarmac as their flag-draped coffins are returned to their families, but the questions were asked. They were because this President does not always accept the responsibilities of his office. It is newsworthy this week that the President may visit East Palestine, Ohio, more than one year after the train tragedy that changed the town and people forever. Mr. Biden, your words will be hollow, and the people impacted by your performance as President do not need to hear them. They have been hurt enough.

Vermont passed a Constitutional Right to personal “reproductive liberty.” Advocates called it a right to abortion, but it still doesn’t say that, and it has yet to confront any sort of legal challenge, but New Hampshire Dems wanted one for themselves. They just didn’t have the votes.

Grok author and state Rep. Judy Aron documented yesterday’s failure. “CACR 23, which sought to enshrine the right to an abortion in our state constitution, failed to get the necessary 3/5ths votes to pass. The roll called OTP motion failed 193-184.” Prior to the vote, a Democrat rep from the People’s Republic of Keene named Amanda Toll carried her newborn down to the Well to speak to the chamber in favor of the proposed Amendment.

I’m sure someone is snipping the video as I type this, and we’ll add it if that’s the case (but Rep Aron was there and is a credible witness), so how weird is that? Look at this beautiful new life – how about we enshrine killing them before birth in a document we otherwise find tedious and restrictive and ignore unless it suits our effort to undermine it?

On that point, props are prohibited when speaking before the body, including babies, but Rep. Toll is reported to have done it anyway, and rules are for everyone else, I guess. But on-demand, conception-to-birth abortion holds a special place in the dark hearts of its advocates.

Despite New Hampshire law being more liberal than most of the free world, that’s not enough. And disagreeing despite similar or more restrictive laws in 149 countries (where abortion on demand is illegal) makes you the extremist.

Not so much. But if you’d like to promote your own extremism, by all means, bring a newborn to work to help make your opponent’s case.

They needed a two-thirds majority vote to advance the amendment. They barely broke 50% but did it with the help of seven Republicans.

• Bickford, David(R) Straf. 3
• Bordes, Mike(R) Belk. 5
• Mason, James(R) Merr. 3
• Phinney, Brandon(R) Straf. 9
• Proulx, Mark(R) Hills. 15
• Vandecasteele, Susan(R) Rock. 25
• Wolf, Dan(R) Merr. 7

No Democrats voted against the proposed Amendment.

And if any women from Vermont are reading this, and they lost a baby they wanted to keep after being rail-roaded into getting the COVID vaccine, your constitutional right was likely violated.

Just sayin’.

 

Edited after publication. I grabbed the wrong Rep. It has been corrected.

The post ICYMI – Democrat Rep. Uses Her Baby As Prop While Promoting ‘Right to Abortion’ Amendment on House Floor appeared first on Granite Grok.

We learned that this was the first day we began tackling our 2024 bills. Before we did that, though, we welcomed our two newest members of the House, Rep. Sean Durkin (R- Coos Dist1) and Rep. Mike Murphy (R-Gorham). We also took some time to remember the Hon. Suzanne Smith (D-Grafton 8), who passed away in early January 2024.

Suzanne served in the New Hampshire legislature from 2008 until her retirement in 2022. She had many interests, including dancing, hiking, reading, and singing, and she was involved in a myriad of activities serving her community. She will be missed.

We learned that a bill that passed on January 4th was brought back for reconsideration after Rep Michael Cahill (D-Newmarket) filed a motion for reconsideration before noon on January 5th after voting on the prevailing side (and probably being chastised for it by his caucus for doing so). This was HB396, which allows for the state to recognize biological sex, such that it permits classification based on biological sex in lavatory facilities, locker rooms, sporting competitions, and detention facilities. The vote for reconsideration failed with 190 NO to 187 YES. So the bill now continues on its way to the next locker room… umm, I mean committee.

We also learned that the House wants police vehicles to be clearly marked. The motion to ITL HB1237 was defeated 213-162, and then a floor amendment was adopted (2024-0345h) by a voice vote, followed by another voice vote to pass the resulting bill. The bill establishes a requirement that any police vehicle purchased after Jan. 1, 2025, must be clearly marked and labeled as a police vehicle in order for it to be used in traffic law enforcement. Proponents of the bill claim that higher police visibility reduces crime. That remains to be seen (literally).

We learned that HB1372 sought to make torture illegal, even though it is already illegal in the US. Proponents felt that a state law would supplement already existing federal law. The bill was ITL’d 319-58. I now wonder if this federal law can be applied to having to sit through some of the floor speeches we heard today.

We learned that the OTP motion for HB1520 was defeated 193-184 and then subsequently killed on a voice vote. This bill would have established a program to purchase, refurbish, and transfer ownership of used vehicles to recipients of Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF). Proponents felt that giving used vehicles to TANF recipients would put them on the road to employment and self-sufficiency. However, opponents felt this would be better achieved through private charity rather than through the state and its taxpayers. Additionally, there’s no stopping the recipients from selling the car, nor were there measures to prevent fraud. Plus, if they are needy, then how can they afford costly future repairs, insurance, etc? This bill was what I call “the Oprah bill”… you get a car, and you get a car, and you get a car….

We learned that we had a bill before us today for which Rep. Lucy Weber (D-Walpole) pleaded with us to pass it “For the Children” (yes, she literally said that). It was HB1068, which would require blood level lead testing for kids entering daycare and public schools. The House killed it 190-189, with the Speaker voting to break the tie in a roll-called vote. This is the same bill that was passed last year by the legislature (HB342) and then vetoed by the Governor with his message, “This bill raises the threshold for children who enroll in New Hampshire’s public schools and is an unnecessary barrier to entry.” I think that with all the talk about abortion going on that perhaps our liberal friends should change their mantra to “It’s for the children that we haven’t aborted.”

Speaking of abortion, we learned that CACR 23, which sought to enshrine the right to an abortion in our state constitution, failed to get the necessary 3/5ths votes to pass. The roll called OTP motion failed 193-184. Rep. Amanda Toll (D-Keene) took her week-old baby daughter with her to give her floor speech in favor of this constitutional amendment (even though we are not allowed to use props while speaking at “the well”). Following her was Rep. Marjorie Smith (D-Durham), who also supports unfettered abortion despite it being “a long time since she has been in the reproductive business” (her words, not mine). It’s also “for the children” – you know, “so they have a choice.” Interestingly enough, there were a lot of problems with the wording of this amendment, but besides that, NH already has the most lenient and reasonable abortion law in the country and provides that a woman can get an abortion for any reason up to 24 weeks (that’s six months) and any time thereafter if there are fetal anomalies or the mother has a health issue. It’s sad that our liberal friends are so hell-bent on having third-trimester abortions for any reason up until the time of birth of a viable, healthy human… as if six months is not enough time to decide. Yet they claim they don’t have a choice.

We learned that HB1002 passed 193-179. This bill allows public bodies to charge fees for documents requested under the Right to Know law if it takes over 10 hours to gather said documents. You have a right to know, but now it can cost you up to $25 an hour for your right to know.  Word has it that on February 1, 2024 at 5:45 p.m., Rep. Lisa Smart (R-Meredith), having voted with the prevailing side, served notice of reconsideration on the motion of Ought to Pass with Amendment on HB1002, which the House passed on a roll call vote of 193-179.  So this will be coming back next week.

We learned that HB1230 was killed 240-133. This bill would have established a committee to examine weatherization initiatives for homes in NH. As if we already don’t have several long term existing programs that deal with home weatherization. In his floor speech laying out reasons why this bill was a waste of taxpayer money and legislative time, Rep. Harrington (R-Strafford) specifically told the Speaker, “Mr. Speaker, if this bill passes, please don’t put me on this committee”. His fears were put to rest after the bill was ITL’d.

Additionally, we learned that another constitutional amendment was brought to the House. This one was CACR 13, relating to slavery and involuntary servitude. While the State-Federal Relations and Veterans Affairs Committee recommended unanimously to pass this bill, there were some problems with the language, and a floor amendment was offered to clear up some vague language; language that actually could be used to interpret that carrying a baby during pregnancy could be considered involuntary servitude, as could some other endeavors. To clean that up, the floor amendment (2024-0385h) took the exact wording from our US Constitution 13th amendment (replacing the words US with NH) and sought to use that version in this bill instead. That amendment, unfortunately, died 201-168 on a roll call the vote. The underlying bill was then passed by the House 366-5 (roll called). Interesting to note that on this same date in 1865, the same issue was debated in the US Congress.

We also learned that an attempt to abolish/nullify the military draft in NH failed 266-101 for HB1338.

Then, we learned that HR21 also failed 226-138. This would have been a House resolution to affirm the NH militia as outlined in articles 24 and 25 of our state constitution as well as the US Constitution’s 2nd Amendment. The members who wished to ITL this bill believe that although they recognize the constitutional right to organize a state militia independent of Washington DC, the NH National Guard already operates in that capacity for our state, and this bill was not necessary.

We also learned that HB1391 passed 241-123, which would allow vehicles purchased in the model year or before to be inspected in the second year after purchase. 241 members thought that you shouldn’t need an inspection sooner than two years if you purchase a brand new vehicle, especially since there are warranties and service checks involved with the purchase. Now we’ll see if the next committee will kick the tires on this one and take it for a spin.

We learned that CACR 20 was pulled off consent (ITL’d 20-0 in committee). The bill would have NH secede from the US if the national debt reached $40 trillion. NH would then declare independence and proceed as a sovereign nation. A motion to Indefinitely Postpone this bill passed 341-24, so it cannot be brought forth again until the 2025-26 legislative biennium.

Finally, we learned that HR 20, reaffirming the friendship between Taiwan and NH, passed 354-6 in a roll-called vote. This was another bill pulled off consent. NH does about a quarter billion dollars worth of business with Taiwan. This resolution reaffirms this important relationship.

There’s more to come next week as committees are furiously trying to get through their mountain of bills! Stay tuned! And remember… It’s for the Children!

Another February is here, as is another February Fundraiser. How is this different from all the other fundraising we do – non-stop, all year? It rolls off the tongue better than most other months – and this year, we have a different goal.

We’d love to add at least one hundred new subscribers, giving at least 10.00 each month.

Yes, we’d love to see one hundred $25.00 subscribers or even one hundred $50.00 a month subscribers, and if that’s you, we appreciate it. We have a 100.00 a month donor for whom we are very grateful, but we need to find a few more. So, here we are, rolling with another February Fundraiser, hoping to beat last year’s numbers via subscribers.

We raised 5k in February of 2023

One hundred new subscribers would help us make this year’s goal, but it would be fair to ask, what do you get for that 10, 25, 50, or 100-dollar monthly gift?

A media outlet that offers news and opinion without the Machine Media filters. We are not beholden to anything but principles. We share divergent pro-liberty opinions so readers and commenters can debate the merits. We allow whistleblowers anonymous bylines. We don’t censor debate or comments, but for a few rare exceptions – and fewer now than ever.

We cover stories no one else touches and share public opinion pieces other media won’t publish – every day, 365 days a year, with no days off. Holidays, sick days, birthdays, even “vacation days. We provide new original content every single day.

And we are working on keeping the promise of a site refresh, an ad-free subscription option, and a better mobile experience. We have expanded into Vermont and are reaching into Maine because tyranny has taken hold, and liberty needs a stronger voice.

We will accept donations of any size, but we could also use a  few large-dollar sponsors who can step forward each year with the understanding that the donation does not buy them more than what we’ve outlined – Independent media committed to defending Conservatarian Constitutional principles without regard to person or party.

That will be worth something different to every person, but I hope it’s worth enough to support it here.

Gratefully and with much thanks.

You probably are aware that America’s military, under the Biden-Regime, has had serious retaining and recruiting problem. It’s a case of the proverbial chickens coming home to roost. More specifically, white non-progressive males … those not-into-preferred-pronouns, safe-spaces, staying-woke, and who don’t want to hear any more of the psycho-babble about whites have oppressor-genes that make them bad, etc., etc., etc. … are not reenlisting and not signing up.

Perhaps this is exactly what the Biden-Regime wants? Perhaps the Biden-Regime does not view the military as a shield to protect America from foreign enemies, but rather as a sword to be used against those Americans who don’t share their insidious ideology … such as the white warriors who aren’t staying and aren’t signing up?

In 2018, 44,000 whites joined the Army.

By 2023, that number had plummeted to 25,000, a 43% reduction in just 5 years.

New recruits dropped from 56% white to 44%.

The post White Non-Progs Need Not Apply appeared first on Granite Grok.

I’ve been drinking coffee since I was six years old. I still drink it every day. Several cups. Nothing fancy. Regular coffee with a bit of French Vanilla creamer, but I can do regular cream, sugar, milk, iced. And yes, I like coffee ice cream. Stories about coffee tend to attract my attention.

This story is about a rich white guy who wants to deprive (mostly) brown people of their livelihood by linking coffee “farming” to his false notions about carbon dioxide and its effects on the earth and its atmosphere.

“Swiss banker and World Economic Forum “agenda contributor”, Hubert Keller: “The coffee that we all drink emits between 15 and 20 tonnes of CO2 per tonne of coffee… Every time we drink coffee, we are basically putting CO2 into the atmosphere.”

Now they’re coming for your coffee.

— Wide Awake Media (@wideawake_media) January 22, 2024

As with all nutty-faux-professor presentations, Hubert isn’t interested in any of the other variables or benefits or – reality, if that’s not too bold a thing to say.  Millions of low-skilled workers, many of them in thoroughly labeled and activated victim classes, rely on coffee for their livelihood. At least a few of them live in second or third-world conditions (and not just in the second or third-world) and are unlikely to give a shit what Swiss banker thinks about anything, especially plantation work.

And they’re not alone. As an agricultural business, these workers have more in common with the farmers in Canada, the UK, Australia, India, Germany, Denmark, and the dozen other places where farmers are protesting the war on food (and now coffee).

Add to that the businesses that own and thrive on the commodity, those who invest and profit from its success, and, of course, the people who drink it.

Only one of the top ten nations for coffee consumption per person is in North America, and it’s not America.

1. Finland — 12 kg/26 lbs — Finland is the world’s biggest consumer of coffee on a per-person basis. The average Finn drinks nearly four cups a day. Coffee is so popular in Finland that two 10-minute coffee breaks are legally mandated for Finnish workers.

2. Norway — 9.9 kg/22 lbs — Norwegians drink more than three cups of coffee a day. Coffee houses are popular in Norway, and unlike in the United States, they are primarily places to socialize, not to work or to carry a drink out.

3. Iceland — 9 kg/20 lbs — Beer was illegal in Iceland until 1987, and wine is costly, so coffee has long been the most essential social drink in the country. It is customary in Iceland to offer any visitor a cup of coffee, and Icelanders have a stock reply, tíu dropar, or “ten drops,” to indicate that they just want a small cup.

4. Denmark — 8.7 kg/19 lbs — In Denmark, the word kaffeslabberas means an informal social gathering where coffee and cake is offered, often after dinner. At weddings, people will often be explicitly invited for the bryllupskaffe or wedding coffee reception.

5. Netherlands — 8.4 kg/19 lbs — Dutch merchants first introduced coffee to the West, shipping entire coffee plants from the Yemeni port of Mocha to India and Indonesia, where they were grown on plantations to supply beans to Europe.

6. Sweden — 8.2 kg/18 lbs — Swedes have a word, Fika, to describe an extended coffee break from work where you socialize with friends. Swedes spend on average 9.5 days per year having a fikarast.

7. Switzerland — 7.9 kg/17 lbs — The Swiss combined coffee and wine to create a popular drink, Luzerner Kafi, which is red wine added to thin coffee with sugar. The Swiss also created Nespresso, one of the most popular coffee brands in the world.

8. Belgium — 6.8 kg/15 lbs — The Belgian cities of Brussels and Antwerp have thousands of coffee houses, including Wittamer’s, which serves brûlot, an espresso drink of sugar, cinnamon, cloves, shredded lemon peel, and warm cognac set alight.

9. (tie) Luxembourg — 6.5 kg/14 lbs — Despite being one of the world’s smallest countries, Luxembourg has thousands of coffee houses, from elegant houses with white linen table cloths to small, stand-up coffee bars.

10. (tie) Canada — 6.5 kg/14 lbs — The only top ten consumer not located in Europe, Canada spawned one of the world’s first coffee chains, Tim Horton’s, which makes three out of every four cups of coffee sold in Canada.

Those numbers are a few years old, and Americans do consume more coffee in aggregate, followed by Germany, Japan, France, Italy, and Russia. There are more of us to do it, and we’re only half a cup or so away from climbing the top ten and perhaps already have if that’s a goal worth pursuing.

In contrast, how much carbon do Swiss bankers emit annually and not just travel to Davos with just a hop, skip, and a jump for them but everywhere else – a haul for the rest of the planet? A literal army of private jets and the debauchery of a globalist lifestyle that we are meant to ignore because we feel it is necessary for some greater good.

That good would be as self-interested as that of those who live and work in the coffee industry, except that they are not trying to destroy your livelihood. In fact, what they do helps make you more money – and enjoy the odd cup of coffee, not that your program will prevent either of those things from continuing to happen.

That’s what makes you more dangerous. None of this has anything to do with the planet, it’s all about centralizing the global economy.

In Switzerland, perhaps?

From now until Purim (March 23), I will have this:

Connections Israel – mentioned every post at the bottom – is formally kicking off its drive to collect funds for Purim baskets for IDF soldiers.  They are also doing barbecues and other morale events, as well as purchasing needed equipment and other items.  I’ve contributed to them for about two decades now.  Great group!

PURIM | connectionsisrael

If you can and are willing, please give at least one basket.  If there’s a comment, tell them NITZAKHON sent you!   If you can, please also let other people who might also be inclined know about this effort.

Note: I give to support at least one unit of 30 soldiers every year.

Oct. 7 Was Worse Than a Terror Attack. It Was a Pogrom. – Tablet Magazine

Not everyone, however, was surprised by the involvement of Gazan civilians. “I don’t differentiate between them and Hamas,” Nir Shani told me. “Let me know of one Palestinian in Gaza who tried to save a Jew and maybe I’ll change my mind.” Shani’s teenaged son Amit was taken hostage and later released as part of a prisoner exchange at the end of November. Shani is from Be’eri, also home to lifelong peace activists, including Vivian Silver, the founder of Women Wage Peace, and Yocheved and Oded Lifshitz. Silver was murdered and the Lifshitzes were taken hostage. Yocheved was later released but Oded remains in Gaza. “They are people of peace who were always supporting Palestine,” the couple’s grandson Daniel said of them. He recounted how bystanders in Gaza spat on his grandmother, who was thrown over the back of a motorcycle after being pummeled in the ribs by her captors.

Overall, they hate Jews.  They hate Israel.  And they view anyone who wants actual peace and actual coexistence as traitors.  And no wonder – look at their kids shows: https://granitegrok.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/child-wants-her-brother-to-be-a-martyr.mp4 —

A CONCLUDING THOUGHT FOR THIS POST

Elie Wiesel, the noted Holocaust survivor, once noted “When someone says they want to kill you, believe them”.

Yet for too many in the West, they are simply unable to take people who match word with deed at their word.  Hamas, specifically, and Islam, generally, openly call for the genocide of Jews and the conquest of the whole planet.  This is ignored, as other events and calamities have been pre-announced and ignored.

If we learn one thing from history, it’s that we fail to learn from it.

Does POTUS have authority to stop States’ National Guards from going to another State to enforce the border; the proposed deal in the senate to allow more immigrants in; should Trump do more to raise the enthusiasm of the republican voters? How important is the upcoming special congressional election on February 13th in Nassau County, NY? Severe prison sentences for pro-lifers vs light or no sentences for BLM peaceful protesters? Should Trump more publicly protect and stand up for Peter Navarro?

The post House Gold Standard – February 01, 2024 appeared first on NH Liberty Alliance.

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.
