MACDONALD: Instead of Funding Schools Invest in Outcomes

Wed, 2026-01-21 22:00 +0000

New Hampshire’s education funding mess keeps getting messier. The state Constitution doesn’t appear to allow any lawful mechanism for collecting taxes to fund public schools. We reported on it, and it has sparked a wave of abatements, but the Legislature doesn’t appear to be in the mood to fix it, since the courts have done ... Read more

IMANI: Establishment Republicans have Become Something of a Nuisance to Our Republic

Wed, 2026-01-21 10:00 +0000

The conservative outlook is centered on a rock-solid commitment to limited government, personal freedom, free-market capitalism, and a robust national defense. These principles have served as the bedrock upon which the Republican Party was built. However, the establishment Republicans have become something of a nuisance to our republic. Regretfully, the current path and direction of ... Read more

Wed, 2026-01-21 03:00 +0000

In lieu of the current Iranian protests in Iran, let us make a note of it: If we remain divided, there will not be a chance against the robust Islamic regime with the vast and destructive power apparatus that has no problem using it against their own population, as they did in the 2009 Green Movement. ...

Cardello: Chauntyll Allen Would be a Good Place to Start

Tue, 2026-01-20 22:00 +0000

Somebody has to be held accountable for the civil unrest and the disruption of activities by a federal law enforcement agency, and Chauntyll Allen may be the perfect candidate to be the first. You probably have not heard of Chauntyll, but hopefully she will become a household name. Chauntyll craves attention and is addicted to ... Read more

Tue, 2026-01-20 19:00 +0000

There’s going to be a warrant article in Epsom that asks the voters if TIFs (Tax Increment Financing) should be allowed.  You might already be thinking this article isn’t for you, but stay with me here, especially if you live in a town that doesn’t currently have TIFs, because the discussion of them might be ...

Tue, 2026-01-20 17:00 +0000

If you don’t know what an AWFL is, it stands for Angry White Female Liberal. We all know one or of one, because they can’t shut up. These “ladies” are the top of the spear for almost every left-wing “street action” product. Don’t want your kids reading groomer porn? There’s an AWFL, or more likely ... Read more

OPINION: The “Money Tree” Myth -Why Goffstown Taxpayers Deserve Their Money Back

Tue, 2026-01-20 10:00 +0000

I’ll be the first to admit it. I’m a simple-minded person. That doesn’t mean I’m ignorant or stupid. It means I tend to see things in a basic, no-nonsense way. When I first started paying attention to local government, one phrase on town warrant articles immediately confused me. “NOT TO BE RAISED THROUGH TAXATION.” I ... Read more

MOFFETT: Patton and Trump

Tue, 2026-01-20 03:00 +0000

I watched the Patton movie the other night. Again. I love movies, but seldom watch films more than once or twice. But I’ve probably watched Patton well over 20 times. That seems like a lot, until you consider that this movie came out in 1970. So that’s less than once every two or three years. ... Read more

JANZ: Are Protests Actually The Instinct to Protect?

Mon, 2026-01-19 22:00 +0000

I know I’m going to annoy a lot of people with this, but here goes: If you have noticed, the overwhelming majority of anti-ICE and anti-US protesters here in the US are… white females. My bet is that a majority are single. We know there are also some lesbian couples at these protests as well. ... Read more

I immigrated to the United States from the U.K. over 50 years ago.  I went through LEGAL channels.  It took me 2 years to go through the entire paperwork process, filling out endless forms and applications.
