Senator Shaheen,
Vote NO on the DHS funding bill! Repeal the multi-year
$75 billion in ICE funding. No immunity for ICE agents. Lead, or at a minimum, follow the people.
Going to be keeping my eyes on our two NH Senators and their votes on this.
BTW you can let a Paramount+ agent that you'll cancel your sub unless they air an unedited CECOT segement on 60 Minutes here help.paramountplus.com/s/contact-us
a very kind offer from a reader, any level of support really helps—even if just a follow and/or share, which still gets us more $ from Russ!
i'm proud of the reporting that this small team continues to crank out every week, and immensely grateful to the readers who have helped us keep it going
Woah. Newsmax’s legal analyst just said Pete Hegseth and everyone involved in the illegal boat strike should be “prosecuted for a war crime.”
They’ve even lost Newsmax on this one.
Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
She’s definitely going to keep running, and I love this for US
I was there, great energy and enthusiasm. Proud of Maggie Goodlander for standing up for the troops and against the authoritarian Trump administration.
Yup. Just saw Chris Sununu on TV standing right behind Trump at the White House. Exactly where he wanted to be all along. #nhpolitics www.usatoday.com/picture-gall...
V. disappointed with the democrats, and especially NH's two senators, for giving in last night. I want to share with you an article from Josh Marshall, of TPM. He captures a lot of what I am feeling, while maintaining hope for the future.

Been there, done that, hope a day off your feet helps
Because of Republicans in Congress, tens of thousands of Granite Staters just lost SNAP — $12M a month in food aid frozen.
A $2M “fix” for mobile pantries is coming, but that’s only 15% of what NH families rely on. Check below for pickup times + share to help a neighbor. #NHPolitics #NHTok
This is precisely the reason why Democrats should NOT cave on the shutdown. If the Republicans in Congress are going to continue ceding the power of the purse to POTUS, it is tyranny.
Republicans broke this
Democrats should only talk when the GOP comes forward with a plan to fix it.
Great article about extreme Republican legislative proposals here in NH:

Good news! SCOTUS denied Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal, but "as in so many cases, it seems only a woman is in jail for crimes committed mostly by men."
Justice won't be served till ALL the powerful people who abused 1,000+ young girls are sentenced.

Walk away, if you can. Hit them in the wallet.
Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪
"Few of the families using the EFA program have ever enrolled their kids in public schools. Removing the income limit will not provide more opportunities for lower income students; it will guarantee fewer by further draining public schools." #NHPolitics

Watch "Conversation with the Community" Sunday morning with Rep. Maggie Goodlander.
The Iranian desperation move I don't folks are giving nearly enough attention to is them mining the absolute hell out of the Straights of Hormuz. 25% of the world's oil and 30% of its natural gas comes through the straights and the US Navy's current de-mining capacity is ass.
Peterborough democrats are on Bluesky! We are here to promote and defend democracy in New Hampshire and beyond.
