Cardello: Nothing About China Is Good For America

Wed, 2025-07-30 14:00 +0000
Some countries are not allies of America, but we can still have a relationship with them. Some say Russia is our greatest geopolitical threat, but we still purchase its valuable rare earths. It defies logic that we would support and arm Ukraine while they are at war with Russia, and then negotiate for rare earth ... Read more

MacDonald: Another Liberal ‘Media’ Crash and Burn

Wed, 2025-07-30 11:00 +0000
When ThinkProgress crashed and burned back in 2019, it was a beautiful thing. Led by a slew of Clinton and Democratic Party insiders, the website that pretended to be independent was shoveling progressive drivel at the American public daily. It’s still there but hasn’t been updated since. A husk of its once prominent self, hoping ... Read more

Imani: Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing: The Stealth Islamization of America

Wed, 2025-07-30 02:00 +0000
The infiltration is real, and the stakes are apocalyptic. Muslim candidates in U.S. elections don’t just campaign for office – they’re executing a calculated strategy to subvert American values and impose Sharia law. These wolves in sheep’s clothing present as moderates, cloaking their true intentions in promises of unity and progress. Once elected, they unleash ... Read more

MacDonald: DEI Training Created Racially Hostile Work Environment

Tue, 2025-07-29 21:00 +0000
If you’ve ever worked in an office environment, almost anywhere, actually, some people can’t keep their politics to themselves. I never discussed it in the office unless they brought it up, usually asking for my thoughts. And I was fortunate. For the twenty years before I went remote, nine out of ten employees were Republican, ... Read more

Smith: The Future of Nashua’s Library

Tue, 2025-07-29 18:00 +0000
God bless our library watchdogs, like Beth Scaer, Cindy Bennett, and Arlene Quaratiello, just to name a few who have written multiple Grok pieces on libraries.  I’ve tagged them in quite a few of my own library articles, but a hat tip to Beth for bringing a near future public comment opportunity to my attention.  ...

MacDonald: 4th Circuit Rules State Bans of Mifepristone, Constitutional

Tue, 2025-07-29 16:00 +0000
West Virginia banned the chemical coathanger Mifepristone. A manufacturer of the drug sued, arguing that the FDA’s approval supersedes the states’ right to prohibit their product. I wonder how much their lawyer made letting them think that? It is common, especially among state and local municipalities that hire outside counsel for big money (what, it’s ... Read more

Cardello: Will The Divide In America Ever Heal

Tue, 2025-07-29 14:00 +0000
America is more divided today than at any time since the Civil War. Some think we came together after the deadliest battle ever fought by Americans, and some say the scars have never healed from the 1860s. We had our challenges again during the Civil Rights era of the 1960s, but nothing like we have ... Read more

Tue, 2025-07-29 00:00 +0000

In the movie ‘A Few Good Men’, Corporal Dawson doesn’t want to plead guilty to killing Private Santiago to get a short sentence. He followed orders and did his job, and he’ll stand by the consequences, even if it’s life in prison. Lt. Daniel Kaffee, his assigned lawyer, master of the plea bargain, is indignant ... Read more

Underwood: It’s Not about The Kids

Mon, 2025-07-28 18:00 +0000
In the comments on a recent post, someone expressed the commonly held (and much-applauded) attitude that, It’s the kids in the classrooms that matter here.. It’s about the life of the child and the parents that are trying to give this child a good life with opportunity — this is the goal here. But this ... Read more

I’ve been accused of being like a dog with a bone, but I’m not going to apologize for obsessing about broad-based taxes, which include the cost of renewing your car’s registration.  I wrote about this matter almost a year ago and revisited the topic recently in my article comparing town hall to city hall, but ...

Mon, 2025-07-28 11:00 +0000
Fox 23 has a touching story about the concern among Maine’s homeless advocates after President Trump signed an order, “Ending Crime and Disorder on America’s Streets.”  Endemic vagrancy, disorderly behavior, sudden confrontations, and violent attacks have made our cities unsafe.  The number of individuals living on the streets in the United States on a single ...

Cardello: There Is A Difference Between Lawfare And Justified Investigation

Mon, 2025-07-28 02:00 +0000
There is a tremendous difference between weaponizing our Justice and Intelligence Departments to damage a political opponent and using credible evidence to bring political operatives to justice. What the Democrats did to Donald Trump during his first term and after he left office in 2021 was Lawfare. The two impeachments of President Trump were done ... Read more
