The shift in focus from Biden to Harris is nothing short of epic, and there’s no reason not to keep the brightest possible light shining on that dim bulb. But I heard something the other day, and I apologize for failing to recall the source. No one cares about the past. I’m paraphrasing. Yes, history ... Read more

I always find it interesting to see who a Presidential candidate chooses to complete their ticket. The person chosen usually brings some electorate benefit, and there have been some fascinating choices for Vice President in my lifetime. The two mates do not always have to get along, as JFK chose LBJ in 1960. Kennedy was ... Read more

There were a couple of nuggets in a couple of VT Digger stories that, taken together, are worth noting because they highlight a real problem with how things currently run under the Golden Dome – that is, with a maturity level found in your average middle school cafeteria. The first piece comes from a story about the ... Read more

It appears as if the anointed Harris hasn’t done any major interviews recently, nor is she taking questions from reporters. It’s all very 2008 Barry O. Just check out his pre-recorded explanation in the video on his website. And they did. Obama got better off script, something I don’t think Harris is capable of, so ... Read more

Well, I was hoping to get a callback from the Secretary of State’s Elections section yesterday concerning Dan Richard’s Writ of Mandamus – that didn’t happen. Upon coming home from taking the Grandson to Clarke’s Bears, I quickly opened the laptop thinking that I might have received an email. Wishful thinking. However, Dan received a ... Read more

Every election cycle, we get this. People who identify as Republican announce their support for the Democrat candidate. Their stated goal is to convince people in the supposed middle that their guy or gal or whatever is a better choice. The 2024 Circus is no different. We will have alleged Republicans endorsing Democrats up and ... Read more

It Has finally happened. KJP is now the mini version of Kamala Harris. Rather than raising the bar and doing a better job for the American people, Karine has adopted the Kamala Harris Word-Salad Method of Communication, which involves using as many words as possible while saying nothing. It also means picking a keyword for ... Read more

Having failed to avoid a conviction for things he admitted to doing and failed to prevent a court from insisting she serve time for that, former State Senator Jeff Woodburn has gone back to the well. You can’t put me in jail; I’m old, he says. I got counseling. I’m a good citizen (former public servant involved ... Read more

Nashua Attorneys take orders from the Mayor, but when those orders violate the constitution, state statutes, or City laws, shouldn’t the Attorneys make a hard stop and comply with the law? Not in Nashua. The Budget Review Committee (BRC) holds public meetings starting in May to review each department’s budget. In June, the Board of ... Read more

The recent—and unfortunately more regular—flooding Vermont has experienced since last summer has damaged a lot of infrastructure, but the impact on our roads due to washouts is a big one—and an expensive one for the state and local municipalities. This raises a critical question of where the money is going to come from to fix ... Read more

Once upon a time, the American Civil Liberties Union claimed to defend the US Constitution. These days, with a few rare exceptions where they accidentally defend it, they represent legal challenges to undermine it. Today’s example is viewed by many as a trap meant to create a discrimination lawsuit with the hope of establishing a ... Read more

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris is not missing any chance to condemn Republicans for threatening to censor libraries and school textbooks. But she is overlooking the heavy-handed record of her chief spokesperson, Brian Fallon. Unfortunately, a recent Supreme Court decision opens the floodgates for far more federal censorship. When Fallon was press chief at the ... Read more

The slander of cows for their existential threat to humanity has focused on methane emissions, which allegedly warm the planet unsustainably. This dubious claim is premised on the sketchy logic that methane production negates any beneficial bovine ecological impacts (especially of urine and manure) and ignores the effects on the environment and food system if ...

Joe Biden has a credibility problem, and his White House and Administration have been caught in so many lies in three-plus years that have been chronicled everywhere. With the help of the legacy media, Joe Biden has managed to spin every negative news story, and together, they have gaslighted the American people to the point ... Read more

Democrats think JD Vance is weird—I mean, really weird. And what started with Vance has since been attached—by the chattering class propagandist punditry—to the Trump campaign and Republicans in general. It is a 2024 version of deplorable, with a whimsical twist. But is it any less offensive, and does it open them up to attack? ... Read more

CONCORD, N.H. – Today, Governor Sununu signed HB 1607, legislation aimed at fixing New Hampshire’s broken safe haven law to save babies from fatal abandonment or abuse.

We have been covering Dan Richard’s efforts to get the State of NH to do the only thing it is supposed to do. Simply this, which the NE Patriots’ football team made famous: DO YOUR JOB! It’s simple—real simple. Yet, it has taken years of hard work on the part of this one brave and ... Read more

I decided to follow up on Steve’s post (NH AG Orders Hampton Town Clerk to Resign After Multiple Election Law Violations) to see if Hampton Town Clerk Shirly Doheny had followed the NH State Attorney General’s Office demand to resign.
