7 hours 16 min ago

Harvard University has suffered numerous blows to its prestige in recent years, but generally these have been earned.

When you go to the hospital or submit yourself for a procedure, you get lots of forms to sign. Patient Bill of Rights, consent to the procedure, but do you read them, all of them?

PAYNE: The New Hampshire Delegation Gets a Zero

Fri, 2025-11-21 19:00 +0000

Alexis de Tocqueville, in his 1830s book “Democracy in America,” assessed why America was so prosperous. His words speak loud and clear: “Every citizen is taught … the history of his Country, and the leading features of its Constitution … It is extremely rare to find a man imperfectly acquainted with all these things, and ...

TYSON: Home for The Holidays

Fri, 2025-11-21 15:00 +0000

One privilege bestowed on me as an accident of birth that I share with few others is that I am the child of genuine, unrepentant Stalinists. And you thought being raised by wolves was tough. I started consuming the Marxist canon at the age of thirteen, and I was, and remain, a quick study. As ... Read more

Fri, 2025-11-21 10:00 +0000

On Thursday, November 27, millions of Americans will have a hearty meal with family members and friends.  Some, but not most, will begin the meal with a prayer.  Some will dig right into the food, hoping to finish the meal before kickoff.  However, members of the American Left, especially those of the self-loathing Caucasian persuasion,  ...

Fri, 2025-11-21 03:00 +0000

I recently completed Larry Allen McCluney, Jr.’s book, The Paradox of Freedom: A History of Black Slaveholders in America.

MACDONALD: WaPo Blows a Gasket

Thu, 2025-11-20 22:00 +0000

Given that our readers pay attention to such things, you may have already heard, but WaPo blew another gasket (I hope they have that special “repair” insurance for that recurring problem). Tesla, whose vehicles they were happy to watch burn eleven months ago, has offered its founder a trillion-dollar ten-year thing. The gazillionaire innovator will ... Read more

RICHARD: Who Decides Morality?

Thu, 2025-11-20 19:00 +0000

In 1784, New Hampshire’s schools were indeed overwhelmingly religious in character, typically operated by local towns or parishes under the state’s 1784 school law (and earlier colonial precedents). As Nathaniel Bouton documents in his 1833 A History of Education in New Hampshire, the explicit purpose of common schools at that time was to teach children to ... Read more

The fiscal disaster that is Claremont School District SAU 6 has been making the news recently, the story of a school board facing the righteous anger of parents and taxpayers who have found their faith, and their tax dollars, sadly misplaced.  And while this particular disaster appears to have several contributing factors that are still ...

CARDELLO: If the Cancer Doesn’t Get You, the Treatment May

Thu, 2025-11-20 15:00 +0000

Well, I never envisioned when I started to chronicle my journey to remission that I would be pushing 50 chapters. I was hoping for the six-part mini-series, and not months of Law and Order. As I have said many times, this challenge is out of my hands, and either God is unhappy with me, or ... Read more

Thu, 2025-11-20 03:00 +0000

Several high-profile acts of vehicular manslaughter have captured more of the nation’s attention. Tractor-trailer drivers, negligence, foreign drivers who can’t read English, one of the drunk, and multiple fatalities. Who knew? I suppose we should have. OTRs are the primary source of logistics for moving goods. There has been a driver shortage for years. One ... Read more

MACDONALD: Irony Alert – The Homeless Made People Homeless

Wed, 2025-11-19 22:00 +0000

If I’ve said it once, the saying goes, Democrats break things, then create more government to “fix” them, and they keep doing it if you let them, but nothing gets fixed. In fact, it all gets worse. Sometimes these broken things collide, breaking more things, which is an exponential win for progressive policy. Take the ... Read more

On this day, October 24, 2025, the truth explodes like a thunderclap: Merrick Garland and Christopher Wray, the architects of tyranny, have rubber-stamped a sinister operation dubbed “Arctic Frost.” This vile scheme unleashed Jack Smith’s FBI strike force to spy on over 100 Republican-linked groups, ...
