Skills Recruiters Look for in PMP Professionals in 2026

55 min 54 sec ago

Many project managers start the year asking the same question. Will my skills still count in 2026? It’s a fair question. Recruiters are scanning for more than schedules and reports now.

SMITH: Senate Passes Paint Tax With Help of 5 RINOs

2 hours 11 min ago

HOWARD PEARL VOTED FOR A PAINT TAX.  He was also the 5th R vote, therefore arguably the one responsible for its advancement because 8+5=13.  Read that again if he’s YOUR senator.  I put those words in all caps because he’s MY senator and I am adding today’s HB451 roll call to Howard’s senatorial rap sheet.  ...

MACDONALD: The Left’s War On Coal Made Electricity Unaffordable

Wed, 2026-01-07 22:00 +0000

Democrats have flirted with the idea of blaming Republicans for soaring electricity prices. Massachusetts wrecking ball Maura Healey gave it a whirl, but she wasn’t the best poster girl for the campaign. Her energy priorities haven’t just spiked electric rates; they are economically untenable. There isn’t enough money in all of New England to achieve ... Read more

MARTINEZ: Fulton County, Georgia Validates Trump’s 2020 Integrity Claims

Wed, 2026-01-07 15:00 +0000

If hundreds of thousands of ballots in Georgia’s pivotal 2020 election lacked legally required certification, then calling it “secure” was never a matter of opinion; it was demonstrably false. As President Donald J. Trump asserted during and after the 2020 election, the integrity of that contest was not merely a political talking point but a foundational ... Read more

MOFFETT: Concerning American Liberators, Trump, and Maduro

Wed, 2026-01-07 03:00 +0000

Many of us grew up watching World War II newsreels of heroic Americans vanquishing evil villains and liberating the oppressed. Powerful imagery abounded of ecstatic citizens of Paris or Rome showering our G.I.s with flowers, hugs, kisses, wine, and more. And it wasn’t just the great cities. Countless European towns, villages, and hamlets welcomed their ... Read more

That weird-ass, creepy, Marxist, freak Tim Walz has succumbed to the weight of his own incompetence or indifference, or deliberate corruption (you decide), and dropped his re-election bid. The Governor of Somalia in America, likely under significant pressure from Democrats, has done what Biden should have done sooner. He has realized or been convinced that ... Read more

OPINION: American Indians – Separating Truth from Fiction

Tue, 2026-01-06 19:00 +0000

One of the “legacies” of works like Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States is its treatment of Native Americans. People like Zinn accuse explorers and colonists of racial hatred and hostility, resulting in horrific massacres of Native Americans. He portrayed Native American societies as peaceful and environmentally conscious. This has become the mainstream perspective. ... Read more

BEST: With Regard to HB1413 and the Re-introduction of the Death Penalty for Murder.

Tue, 2026-01-06 10:00 +0000

There has been no accountability in New Hampshire for the cover-up of corrupt police officers by the Attorney General’s Office. AG Gordon MacDonald stated in August 2018 that the list of Laurie List officers should remain private. He defied Judge Charles Temple’s opinion in April 2019 that the Laurie List should become public. Later, his ... Read more
