Danbury Wins the broadband battle
Politicians often talk about “fighting” for their constituents in Concord. I can assure you, in such “fights” no punches are actually thrown, and Representatives do not grapple their ideological opponents, rolling around on the floor, pulling each others’ hair and neckties.

Have any of you read any books that tell you about the real history of our Constitution? “5000 Year Leap” will explain it quite well.

I believe that this Washington administration intends to restrict our right to vote by sabotaging the Postal Service. We have therefore decided to vote in person to make sure that our votes are counted. With the proper precautions, we believe it is no riskier than going to the supermarket and just as vital.

A major part of the councilor’s job, as Mike sees it, is representing the needs of the district and its constituents. Some issues high on his list are the state’s response to the Covid-19 Pandemic, […]

Per United States Postal Service Tracking information, it arrived in the Central Foreign Receiving Center in New Jersey on June 8. About two weeks later I began checking the USPS Tracking site which […]
Lafayette Park, Washington, DC; Portland, Oregon; now Chicago and New York City? German Stormtroopers, (SA), known as Brown Shirts, were founded in Germany in 1921. This was a paramilitary organization whose methods of violent intimidation played a key role in Adolf Hitler’s rise to power. In Italy, around the same time Benito Mussolini’s Fascist Black […]
USA seen as negligent over handling of virus
My husband and I flew home from Belize, Central America on March 8. Our daughter, Kayla and her then 8 month old son live in Belize. The country is the same size in area as the state of New Hampshire with a population of about 400,000. On March 20, Belize officially closed all of its […]
