Is Vineyard Wind’s Stumble A Sign?

Tue, 2024-12-24 13:00 +0000
The Gulf of Maine offshore wind leases are a done deal, but the project isn’t.

Wrong House. Wrong Raid. Wrong Justice

Tue, 2024-12-24 03:00 +0000
In the 30 years since the Crime Bill fueled the militarization of police and the explosive growth of SWAT teams, SWAT teams continue to terrorize innocent homeowners and then receive qualified immunity from the courts.

Tue, 2024-12-24 01:00 +0000
School districts did a lot of misbehavin’ after the COVID thing started. The Rochester Community School District in Michigan was keeping dossiers on parents who were critical of COVID lockdowns. Elena Dinverno sued and was awarded S190,000.00. No one else was suing so the open question was how many parents and who? [Elizabeth] Clair said ... Read more

Government Smothers All Competition

Mon, 2024-12-23 21:00 +0000
I found this, among some others, over at Barnorama: “Taxes are like a subscription to your Country that you can’t cancel, no matter how bad the service gets.” Well, the “can’t cancel” bit is undoubtedly valid. Even if you are so low on the economic totem pole that you do not pay income taxes, except ... Read more

Mon, 2024-12-23 17:00 +0000
Before the door hits him in the ass, on the way out, Governor Chris Sununu issued an executive order rescinding 145 past executive orders going as far back as 2003. The list included several of his own, including nineteen from 2020 and 11 from 2021 (where we’ll likely find the pandemic-era Flununu flinch Emergency Orders). ... Read more

Possible Error Could ‘Be Cause For Reversal’ In Trump’s E. Jean Carroll Case

Mon, 2024-12-23 15:00 +0000
Hoover Institution Senior Fellow Victor Davis Hanson said Friday on his podcast that President-elect Donald Trump could have a “cause for reversal” in the E. Jean Carroll case, citing the language used by the presiding judge. In May 2023, a New York jury found Trump liable for sexual battery and defamation, but stopped short of convicting him ...

Another Deluded Democrat Narrative Mule

Mon, 2024-12-23 13:00 +0000
The fallout from the withdrawal of Mindy Atwood for State Librarian continues to amuse. I think I made the points that needed making yesterday here (If Book Banning Is Bad, Why Can You Do It?) and here (Actually, Libraries Are The Problem), but when proglodytes give you low-hanging fruit…you make jam out of them. InDepth ... Read more

The Case That Could Overturn the Infamous Kelo Decision

Mon, 2024-12-23 11:00 +0000
As an academic and a legal commentator, I have sometimes disagreed with the United States Supreme Court, but I often stress the good-faith differences in how certain rights or protections are interpreted. One case, however, has long stood out for me as wildly off-base and wrongly decided: Kelo v. New London. The case allowed the government ... Read more

 A Rallying Cry That Changed History

Mon, 2024-12-23 03:00 +0000
On December 19, 1776, as the War for Independence stood on the brink of collapse, Thomas Paine published The American Crisis. Beginning with the immortal line of “THESE are the times that try men’s souls,” it was no mere essay – it was a rallying cry that turned despair into victory. The Crisis was written to inspire a weary ... Read more

197 Ballots Still Missing: Sec. Of State Doesn’t Notice or Care?

Mon, 2024-12-23 01:00 +0000
The Town of Windham is bad at elections. Before the 2020 Windham Incident, we don’t know how bad, but since then, they’ve failed at every opportunity to ensure election integrity. This required the Secretary of State to provide election monitors, which hasn’t done much good, and the most recent report on Windham’s progress is proof. ... Read more

If You Don’t Like Trump Acting As President, Get Biden To Be President

Sun, 2024-12-22 19:00 +0000
The Democrats all got the weekly email. By Democrats, I mean the politicians and the media. They all get a weekly edict from somebody, probably the same mysterious person who is actually running the country. Remember Obama saying he would love a third term where he would have a puppet President with an earpiece and ... Read more

Race For NH GOP Chair – One Down

Sun, 2024-12-22 17:00 +0000
I’ve known Mike Biundo since the genesis of the NH TEA Party Coalition when some leaders of the various NH-based conservatarian groups decided that the Granite State needed such a movement. To be honest, he’s always been a bit more “ahem” circumspect than I on almost any issue you’d be willing to query us. I ... Read more
