ROPER: The Left Preaches “Affordability.” LOL!

4 hours 49 min ago

As we edge toward the second year of the legislative biennium in Vermont, politicians on the Left have glommed onto the word “affordability” – a long-time campaign theme on the Right – in an unbelievable attempt to make it their own. I say unbelievable, but if the New York mayoral race was any indication, at ... Read more

MACDONALD: What About the Democrat Pandemic?

Wed, 2025-12-03 22:00 +0000

Leave it to liberal academics to suggest something as absurd as a whiteness pandemic. The nation has been flooded with people of color for years. They are reproducing at significantly faster rates than whites, who are barely, if still, at replacement level. And while the nation is still overwhelmingly not brown, it was more so ... Read more

BOWMAN: A National Calling

Wed, 2025-12-03 19:00 +0000

Times certainly have changed when catchy words can dismiss our relevant past. Despite such gibberish, what endures are our deeply embedded instincts to care for and love those we have brought into this world.  That, in addition to our natural love of country, portrays just how immoral and evil it would be to do otherwise.  ...

HOHENSEE: Judicial Nomination Power – Shared, Not Sole

Wed, 2025-12-03 15:00 +0000

Since at least 2000, our governors have knowingly usurped the Executive Council’s power to nominate judges. Courts are an essential branch of government, but we’ve learned the hard way that our rights are no longer sacrosanct in the NH courts. Nominating and appointing the best judges is critically important. The NH Constitution says that all ... Read more

How Gashapon Machines Are Blending Nostalgia With New Consumer Trends

Wed, 2025-12-03 12:36 +0000

Gashapon machines have always carried a certain charm. Long before collectible toys became a mainstream trend, these capsule machines drew people in with small surprises tucked behind clear plastic doors. What began as a simple novelty has turned into something much larger, driven by a mix of nostalgia, curiosity, and shifting consumer behavior. Today, more ... Read more

CARDELLO: Is It Too Late to Reverse Fifty Years of Indoctrination

Wed, 2025-12-03 10:00 +0000

The public school system in America has been on a mission for decades. I used the timeframe of 50 years in today’s article title because it coincides with the Department of Education’s founding. Jimmy Carter already locked up the worst presidency in history, until Joe Biden moved into the White House, so adding the Department ... Read more

MACDONALD: As The Brown / Sununu Campaign for US Senate Percolates

Tue, 2025-12-02 22:00 +0000

We’ve seen coalitions of locals forming up around the Republican Primary for US Senate. Jeanne-The-debt-Machine-Shaheen is retiring from politics about 18 years too late, and the GOP would like to pick up the seat. Scott Brown, who no right-minded conservative would have trusted previously as anything but another NRC stooge of choice, has become “the ... Read more

SMITH: A Salem Parade Without Local Politicians

Tue, 2025-12-02 17:00 +0000

Dr Frank has often told his audiences “politicians don’t start parades, they join parades.”  The Londonderry Old Home Day parade is said to be the biggest parade in NH, but one could easily argue that the Salem Christmas parade can give it a run for its money.  Having been a spectator in 2023, I knew ...

On November 17th, the UN Security Council endorsed the Trump Peace plan for Gaza.
