MacDonald: The True Heroes of COVID

Sun, 2025-08-10 11:00 +0000
I want to say that I didn’t want to say I told you so, but the terror-campaign, intimidation tactics, abrogation of civil and natural rights, along with the cultural compromises that came with the COVID Psyop, were too offensive not to. I told you so. As a prominent contributor to one of the few uncompromised ... Read more

Roper: VT Republicans Need a Plan B

Sun, 2025-08-10 02:00 +0000
The Vermont School District Redistricting Task Force met for the first time on August 1st. I’ve been checking the Agency of Administration’s web page for the group, hoping they’ll post the meeting recording or at least the minutes for review. So far, no good. But they did post the agenda (no actual work involved; just a meet ... Read more

Sat, 2025-08-09 21:00 +0000
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro was on a short list to ride Kamala’s 2024 train wreck as her vice president.

Ortolano: This Is What Viewpoint Discrimination Looks Like in Nashua

Sat, 2025-08-09 18:00 +0000
On August 4th, I stood before Nashua’s Personnel and Administrative Affairs Committee to comment on a proposed ordinance that would conditionally ban signs, banners, and flags in the Aldermanic Chamber. I came with three 8.5” x 11” paper signs to test whether the City’s rule would be enforced fairly, or selectively. The signs were silent. ... Read more

Bowman: Easy Doesn’t Teach

Sat, 2025-08-09 16:00 +0000
I’m so old that I can recall how Europeans used to frown over America’s inhibitions regarding sexuality. Sadly, such a critique is no longer voiced. My memory was jolted from a brief review in John Stormer’s 1998 best seller, None Dare Call It Education. Although experienced by those of my age set, Stormer’s concise listing ... Read more

Smith: Counseling For That Narcissism, Rep Ming?

Sat, 2025-08-09 14:00 +0000
Delusions of grandeur are high on the diagnostic checklist for Narcissism.  Just look at the DSM-3-R or any other authority on such matters.  Former Rep Ming has shown similar behaviors during last year’s campaign season, such as claiming to be the first Asian rep when it simply wasn’t true.  Now he’s outdone himself in his ...

MacDonald: Requiring a Visa Security Deposit is a Great Idea

Sat, 2025-08-09 11:00 +0000
Meetings in the Trump White House are likely remarkably different from those of Democrats. While the left schemes to secure more power and protect itself from those who might object, Team Trump is making lists of things that will trigger lefties. I don’t know, that’s how I picture it, and how hard can it be? ... Read more

Roper: Those Polluting EVs….

Sat, 2025-08-09 02:00 +0000
In my recent “Cage Match Conversation” with fellow WDEV radio host Kevin Ellis (Great debate, check out the podcast!), the subject of electric vehicles and the recent decision by Congress to end the EPA’s ability to regulate tailpipe CO2 emissions as pollutants came up.

Opinion: Hold Dog Owners Criminally Accountable in New Hampshire

Sat, 2025-08-09 00:00 +0000
This isn’t a fluff piece about menacing mutts—it’s a demand for justice. When dangerous dogs hurt people, it’s not a neighborly dog problem—it’s a community safety issue ripe for the New Hampshire Legislature to own up to. 1. Current Law Doesn’t Cut It: Civil Only? Not Enough Under RSA 466:19, New Hampshire imposes strict civil liability ... Read more

MacDonald: Apple, Republicans, Democrats, and America

Fri, 2025-08-08 21:00 +0000
Apples don’t have a nut to crack, but Trump figured it out anyway. After applying a lot of pressure and signaling that he’d never back down, Apple promised to increase its total 4-year investment in America to $600 billion. Why? It may be “cheaper” than pandering (and enriching) human rights violators like China in exchange ... Read more

Fri, 2025-08-08 14:00 +0000
Not so many years ago, it was a natural progression to graduate from high school, enter the military or college, get married, buy a house, have children, and roll the dice that all worked out.

MacDonald: Had to Share – How TV Portrayed the Measles in 1969 vs. Today

Fri, 2025-08-08 11:00 +0000
Two weeks ago, the ‘Grok finally caught up with the outrageous nonsense coming from (mostly) the left over the “measles outbreak.” Measles Schmeazles brought some facts and a bit of snark to the debate, not the least of which was if the vaccine works, what’s your kid got to worry about. That and actual case ... Read more

MacDonald: RFKJ Moves to Protect Americans from…America.

Thu, 2025-08-07 21:00 +0000
I’m singing to the choir, for the most part, when I say things like, fund it yourself. This is America. We know the Progs are obsessed with where Wall Street is. Whenever it dips, it’s Trump’s fault and the end of the world. Record highs and soaring investment in America aren’t even news, but it ... Read more
