CARDELLO: When Will the Left Show Concern for Americans

2 min 19 sec ago

I am not going to go back too far in time, only to 2020 and the Summer of Love. In the last five years, the Democrats have given us enough to show that they are more concerned and bigger fans of people who commit crimes against Americans than they are of the actual victims of ... Read more

MACDONALD: Is Mayor Donchess a Machiavellian Narcissistic Psychopath?

Fri, 2025-12-05 22:00 +0000

The City of Nashua has been spiralling downward in an epic political shitshow for a number of years, coincidental to the reign of its current Mayor for life, Jim Donchess. It is cloistered, inefficient, and untransparent. At the same time, it wastes millions more taxpayers’ dollars on legal fights to prevent citizens from ensuring government ... Read more

HUYETT: How Maine Stole the Portsmouth Harbor Islands—and How to Take Them Back

Fri, 2025-12-05 15:00 +0000

Maine stole our land when we weren’t looking. The historical evidence is overwhelming and clear. For almost 300 years, the Granite State’s northern border ran down through the Piscataqua River, snaked across Maine’s Portsmouth Harbor shoreline, then bisected the Isles of Shoals. New Hampshire’s borders embraced the entire harbor, including Badger’s Island, Seavey’s Island, and ... Read more

SANDOVAL: Legacy Media Goes From Ignoring To Endorsing Illegal Immigrant Crime

Fri, 2025-12-05 03:00 +0000

Natalie Sandoval – Daily Caller News Foundation “Mercy to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent,” Adam Smith wrote in his treatise on moral sentiments. Legacy media publications are especially guilty of this. Nothing pulls on their heartstrings quite like an illegal migrant convicted of a heinous crime.  “The Trump Administration is deporting people to ... Read more

MACDONALD: Trump FDA Rejects Pfizer mRNA Flu Jab

Thu, 2025-12-04 22:00 +0000

I think we forget how much the Trump Administration has done in fewer than eleven months. Or maybe we have, and this new normal has us itchy and bitchy for so much more. True, there is much left to do, but even if it all ended today, more positive change has never been seen in ... Read more

MACDONALD: Killing Them ‘Softly’ With This Song (And Dance)

Thu, 2025-12-04 17:00 +0000

Governments have been killing their own people for their own advantage since there have been “governments” (see also: Kane and Able). From criminals to inconvenient truth tellers, power has a way of wanting to protect its own ass, so when the proglodytes started directing their abundance of “empathy” and “compassion” toward the chronically ill, everyone’s ...

ORTOLANO: The 13-to-1 Problem: How NH Superior Court’s ‘Assigned Docketing’ Utterly Destroys Rights to an Impartial Judge

Thu, 2025-12-04 15:00 +0000

My six-year fight for government transparency, recognized by the Nackey S. Loeb and New England First Amendment Awards, exposed a cynical failure in the New Hampshire judicial system. My Right-to-Know (RTK) lawsuits sought critical records, from assessing records to an alleged fraudulent federal funding scheme for the Nashua Performing Arts Center, a matter serious enough that the federal government is ...

Thu, 2025-12-04 03:00 +0000

As we edge toward the second year of the legislative biennium in Vermont, politicians on the Left have glommed onto the word “affordability” – a long-time campaign theme on the Right – in an unbelievable attempt to make it their own.
