MacDonald: Americans Will Pick Berries

Sat, 2025-07-19 16:00 +0000
It’s been a while since I last wrote about the goings-on in my backyard. It’s usually wildlife or ticks or something. Last year, we had a lot of birds; this year, not so many, but the Catbird is still here. We’ve got more bunnies, which is what happens when you find you’ve got at least ... Read more

Best: Does Anyone Actually Adhere to the Laws in the NH Justice System?

Sat, 2025-07-19 14:00 +0000
As a moral matter as well as a legal matter, to quote David Vicinanzo from an article at InDepthNH, the State’s decision to keep the Grand Jury Criminal Investigation report private without a public hearing or notice is a betrayal of all those kids abused at St Paul’s School.  David Vicinanzo represented “most, if not ...

MacDonald: Gay “Lobby” Loves Ayotte Vetoes But It Won’t Win Her Votes

Sat, 2025-07-19 11:00 +0000
New Hampshire’s creepy groomers are beside themselves with glee and likely some young children over Governor Ayotte’s rejection of the bill that would keep men out of women’s bathrooms and porn out of grade school kids’ hands. They’re GLADD she did it, while the people who might actually vote for her in 2026, assuming she ... Read more

Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell – The Daily Signal New York City socialist Democrat mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is a preview of “where the Democrat Party is headed,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told The Daily Signal. “This is truly where the Democrat Party is headed,” Leavitt said at Thursday’s briefing. “Clearly, they learned nothing from ...

Opinion: “This Used To Be My Town, Too …”

Sat, 2025-07-19 02:00 +0000
My husband, Dale, and I were both born in Keene in 1958 and grew up here. My father was a business owner for over 50 years and was a three-term Keene City Councilor. Dale’s father taught industrial arts at the Keene Jr. High, and to this day, many comment on how they still have the ... Read more

MacDonald: ICYMI – The Most Environmentalist Woman in the World

Fri, 2025-07-18 21:00 +0000
We are seven weeks into the Hurricane season without a single hurricane. I blame Global Warming, specifically the current cycle resulting from the massive infusion of water vapor into the atmosphere following the 2022 Hunga Tonga eruption. Water vapor is the primary greenhouse gas, and it puts the other pretenders to shame. The Earth uses ... Read more

Roper: A Third Party or a Constitutional Convention?

Fri, 2025-07-18 18:00 +0000
Elon Musk believes that the future of our Constitutional Republic is in danger due to an erosion of foundational values such as freedom of speech (the reason he bought Twitter) and governmental financial irresponsibility and the crushing debt resulting (the reason he entered the political arena, supported President Trump, and embarked on the DOGE project). ...

Cardello: Can The “Blueing” Of America Be Stopped

Fri, 2025-07-18 14:00 +0000
I moved from Massachusetts to New Hampshire in 1983 because I wanted to raise my family in a safer, less restrictive, conservative, and more affordable environment for my children. I came to New Hampshire because it offered an alternative to the life I grew up in in Massachusetts. Unfortunately, many more people took the same ... Read more

MacDonald: If People Still Want NPR…

Fri, 2025-07-18 11:00 +0000
Every objection from Democrats to the current realignment of responsibility underway in Washington, DC is based on a severely flawed premise. What people need cannot exist if the government doesn’t take the people’s money to fund it and control it. It’s not that you don’t know what you want; it’s that you may not spend ... Read more

Bowman:If We Can Keep It

Fri, 2025-07-18 02:00 +0000
Those words capture the sentiment of a cautious Ben Franklin when asked about the type of government that had just been created.  His “a Republic if you can keep it” could now be a bit prophetic when considering the empty platitudes and aimless performances of the career politician.  Sadly, their re-election results when these attitudes ...

Cardello: Will We See The Last Of Janet Mills in 2026

Thu, 2025-07-17 21:00 +0000
When Republicans think about Maine Governor Janet Mills, the first thing that comes to mind is how many days until January 6, 2027, and we can finally say goodbye to possibly the most progressive governor Maine has ever seen and definitely, the most destructive. Mills will complete her second and final term as governor on ... Read more

Development Strategy: 5 Examples of Effective Reforms

Thu, 2025-07-17 18:25 +0000
World history has repeatedly demonstrated how a single decision can change the fate of entire countries. This could be a change in government, strategic decisions on cooperation, or reforms of entire industries. Not all ideas and reforms, even the most well-thought-out in theory, have led to success. Often, implementation fails, and the consequences are devastating. ... Read more

MacDonald: So, What Did Trump Get In Return?

Thu, 2025-07-17 18:00 +0000
Aside From Pissing Off Half His Base The strange, bizarre, complete 180 on the long-promised, pending revelations in the Epstein Files has a lot of people pissed off. Taken at face value, a human trafficking operation likely coordinated between US and Israeli Intelligence through Jeffrey Epstein (and a handful of wealthy connected persons of interest) ...

New Hampshire ruling kicks the issue back to the Supremes Frustration over activist judges issuing sweeping national injunctions to block the president’s initiatives culminated in the US Supreme Court decision of Trump v CASA, Inc. The nation’s highest court ruled that US district courts lack the constitutional authority to veto executive orders with broad, nationwide injunctions. ... Read more

Cardello: When People Don’t Do Their Job, Innocent People Die

Thu, 2025-07-17 14:00 +0000
We have talked about and seen many examples of the Democrat hyperbole equating any cut in government spending to the deaths that will result. Cut funding for abortions, and thousands of young pregnant women will die. Yet when shelves of formula were empty in grocery and drug stores during Biden’s term, the sound you heard ... Read more

MacDonald: New Law Nixes “Sustainability” Board from Energy Planning

Thu, 2025-07-17 11:00 +0000
Amidst the plethora of good and bad things signed by Governor Ayotte this week were some much-needed baby steps on the matter of New Hampshire’s energy independence. The Granite State is tied to ISO New England and, by extension, the destructive green energy priorities of the surrounding states—all of them. Our already too-high electric rates ... Read more
