Though it may feel like it for many of us, who knows where we rank among the most uncertain times in human history? Many civilizations have faced enormous levels of hostility and strife, our own as well during the Civil War, however the alarmist bells are clanging on both sides making essentially the same claim ...

This is not a first-time nod but a repeat (if memory serves). New Hampshire has ranked number one in the United States for beer consumption (woo-hoo!). Northeastern states, particularly New Hampshire (1.66 gallons) and Vermont (1.58 gallons) have some of the highest beer consumption rates in the country. New Hampshire doesn’t have state sales tax, ... Read more

New Hampshire has an amendment on the November Ballot that would allow judges to serve until age 75. We currently retire them at 70. I confess that, until the past week, I paid no attention to this whatsoever, but others have. ‘Grok author Laurie Ortolano dropped a piece on the amendment (opposed), to which occasional ...

Former President Donald Trump is making a play for a state President Joe Biden won by ten points in 2024. All eyes should be on Virginia on Nov. 5. In 2023, political pundits told voters to look to Virginia as a bellwether for what would come in the 2024 election. One year after Biden won the state, ... Read more

New Hampshire has been doing something crazy. Lowering taxes. Business taxes have systematically been reduced for years. Small. Incremental. Persistent. Drew Cline wrote a piece debunking the lies that this harmed New Hampshire somehow. The Republican Legislature also repealed the state’s only tax on income (we don’t have a traditional income tax on individual wages) ... Read more

On Monday morning, Kamala Harris took a few minutes to address the Trump Rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday night. Harris told reporters that the event proved what she had been preaching for three months. She saw the gathering of supporters as Trump’s fixation on grievances and himself and on dividing the country. This ... Read more

AI and robotics are growing by leaps and bounds. We’re certainly seeing it permeate marketplaces, take jobs, and become ever-more dominant in today’s thinking. For example, even before Bill Bates-of-Hell and his statements about using AI to combat “misinformation”… – we see this in information curation and presentation: Report: Google’s AI Programed to be Anti-American ...

The day after the Burlington Free Press published its Safest State story about Vermont, the UK Daily Mail dropped a bomb on Burlington: “The idyllic northeastern state being ravaged by drugs, crime, and homelessness: ‘People don’t feel safe.‘“ I missed it when writing about the former, though I did point out the latter. We’ve been observing the ... Read more

As Vice President Kamala Harris slips in the polls, the Democratic National Committee/Harris campaign/mainstream media fusion talking points become even more absurd. Claiming that J.D. Vance and Donald Trump were “weird” did not work — especially given the genuinely odd behavior of vice presidential candidate Tim Walz and would-be First Gentleman Doug Emhoff. Nor was ... Read more

There’s a PAC running ads in New Hampshire to keep those dangerous MAGA Republicans out of the New Hampshire House. It’s the dumbest bit of tripe I’ve ever seen. It mentions guns and gun laws twice (if I recall), one in general and one related to schools. There is no context, including the absence of ... Read more

It was a surprise this week when Independent Representative Laura Sibilia (I-Dover) announced with two weeks left to go before the November 5th election that she is challenging the incumbent Speaker of the House, Jill Krowinski (D-Burlington), for the gavel. So many questions! Why now? And why would Sibilia think for even a nanosecond that ... Read more

This week, we get a tad philosophical when discussing censorship, Democrats’ nonstop fundraising on nonstop abortion talk, and more.

H. L. Menchen said, “Elections are nothing more than auctions for future stolen goods.” That maxim rings true when one looks at the promises that a particular candidate running for president of the United States has made. The candidate promises first-time homeowners a cool $25 grand. When this candidate wasn’t polling too high among Black ... Read more
