Sometimes people can take the entire idea of complying with ridiculous government mandates several bridges too far. That appears to have been the case during a recent sporting event held in New Hampshire. A girls' soccer game was scheduled between Plymouth Regional High School and their rival Bow High School. Bow High School was fielding a boy who "identifies" as a girl to compete, but when the Plymouth Regional parents heard about this, they asked the Bow High athletic director to withdraw the boy from the roster. He refused, saying that "his hands were tied" by a federal ruling allowing...

It never ceases to amaze this writer how undemocratic the “Democratic” party can be. Just a month ago, party leaders unceremoniously replaced their nominee with Vice President Kamala Harris, who hadn’t won a single primary vote. Working alongside Big Tech censors and powerful corporate media outlets, Democrat elites have conspired to silence speech that won’t help Harris win the forthcoming presidential election. Bluntly put, the Democrats want to keep Americans in the dark. There’s perhaps no better evidence of this than recent reports that multiple members of the party are urging Harris not to share a policy platform. That’s right:...

Last week, two polls revealed that the Virginia election is a tight race within the margin of error. Roanoke College poll showed Kamala Harris leading Trump by just three points, a finding echoed by Quantus poll with the same narrow margin. Virginia, a traditionally blue state that last went Republican in the 2004 presidential election, was looking like a potential Trump pickup before Biden dropped out, however conventional wisdom was that with Kamala Harris topping the ticket, Virginia was no longer in play. That's clearly not true. Is another blue state that looked good for Trump before Biden dropped out...

he top abortion provider in northern New England claimed in a virtual press conference last week that a projected deficit in revenue will require “significant financial support to continue offering its lifesaving health care services.” Planned Parenthood of Northern New England (PPNNE), which provides abortions and contraceptives in Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, painted a grim picture of its financial status, explaining in an accompanying press release that the organization is “facing a projected financial deficit of $8.6 million over the next three years,” a situation that may require it to “change how and where it offers services.” PPNNE’s spokespersons...

The NRA-ILA reported: firearms, ammunition, or firearm accessories, and provides a civil penalty for violations. This critical legislation protects gun-owners privacy and ensures that bad actors cannot use credit and debit card transactions to create a gun-registry or block cardholders from making gun-related purchase.

Who knew that the “despotic inroads on the rights of property” referenced by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in their grotesque work of political ideology (The Communist Manifesto) against property owners would mean devaluation of said property through government policy?The obvious implication was physical violence, as the authors describe “wresting” away capital and wealth, and taxation, as state-sponsored theft is a given for non-producing and envious failures like Marx, but as we’ve seen time and again, the left’s policies also rob from us by devaluing the properties in which we invest.Here’s the latest example, out of New Hampshire, via a...

A family in Concord, New Hampshire, is at a loss of what to do about a growing homeless encampment that is directly behind their historic house. Robin Bach and her husband have worked hard to restore their 19th century Walker residence for their children, ages 8 and 11, to enjoy for years to come, the Concord Monitor reported Saturday. However, there is an expanding homeless encampment in the woods on their property that has given them cause for concern because no one seems to know who is responsible for it. Bach said her children are afraid to play outside and...

Polling after Joe Biden's debate fumbled are showing a decrease in support for the president's reelection. Biden's campaign has brushed off post-debate polls and claimed any dip is the result of 'overblown media narrative.'
