  • The Koch's Criminal Justice Hypocrisy in New Hampshire
    CCWWTT::^^RRWW11aa^^ccWWTTaabb´´ 666AAA000===888CCC444 BBBCCC000CCC444 ???AAA>>>999444222CCC 77^^ffccWWTTAAPPSSXXRRPP[[00VVTT]]SSPP^^UU >dc^UBcPcT1XV>X[1X[[X^]PXaTb 77PPbb77ddaacc==TTff77PP\\__bbWWXXaaTT 1 Charles and David Koch pour hundreds of millions of dollars into our political system to advance their self-enriching agenda and elect their puppet candidates. At the state and national level, the Kochs use their unlimited resources to influence policy to suit their political and personal needs while hurting middle class and working families. The policies they favor include cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy; reducing and eliminating regulations to protect workers, consumers, and the environment; privatizing and cutting both Social Security and Medicare; and cutting other programs, including Pell Grants for college. For decades, the Kochs and their network of dark money political front groups have been pushing the Koch agenda in New Hampshire — perhaps more than any other state in the country — which has benefitted billionaires like the Kochs at the expense of Granite Staters. In 2016, New Hampshire will continue to be on center stage in American politics with the First In The Nation primary, a top- tier Senate race, marquee Congressional contests, an open governor’s mansion, and a number of hot button issues in the limelight. At the same time, the Koch network has promised to spend nearly $900 million to buy elections for candidates who will do their bidding for them. The Kochs themselves admit they “expect something in return” for the millions they spend propping up their candidates, but for candidates, backing from the Kochs comes with a high price tag.

  • State of Siege Transcript
    #111 State of Siege: What the Free State Project Means for New Hampshire’s Public Schools Jennifer Berkshire Welcome to Have You Heard. I’m Jennifer Berkshire. Jack Schneider And I’m Jack Schneider. Berkshire And Jack, this episode features a trip down the rabbit hole. Schneider I feel like that's every episode. Berkshire No, actually, you don't even know rabbit hole until you've joined me for this episode. Schneider Okay. Well, here I am. I've joined you. Berkshire So the idea for this episode actually came from a book talk that you and I did in New Hampshire. And somebody who participated in that, he described a situation where things in his town were kind of unpleasant. And he asked a question just about, you know, like, did we have any tips about how to, you know, make the discourse in a community more positive around the schools? And I think we answered in kind of a generic way. We mentioned some conversations we've been having with other groups around the country. And then he and I started corresponding and I realized, wow, he's not just talking about like ordinary levels of acrimony. There is something really weird going on and I need to know more about it. And so that's where we're headed. Berkshire We’re going to Sunapee, New Hampshire. Are you ready? Schneider I'm ready. Let's do it. Jesse Tyler I'm Jesse Tyler, I'm a school board chair in the town of Sunapee, New Hampshire which has about 3,300 residents spread over many beautiful acres with an incredible pristine lake.

  • BARACK OBAMA by Wayne Allyn Root This Is the Most Important Column I've Ever Written
    MEET THE NEW PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES BARACK OBAMA By Wayne Allyn Root This is the most important column I've ever written This is my chance to play the modern-day version of Paul Revere. "The commies are coming, The commies are coming." Yes, I am re- porting a communist takeover. The leader of this attack is not whom it appears to be. Republicans, conservatives, patriots, and capitalists are sick right about now. We're in shock. We can't believe Trump isn't president, We can't believe Americans voted against the greatest economy, perhaps in history, and the greatest jobs picture ever, and the greatest improvement in middle-class incomes ever. And after the covid lockdown and economic collapse, Trump reduced the greatest economic comeback ever. Remember 33% GDP in Q3 2020? That was the biggest number in history. Who would vote against all that? You'd have to be self- hating and suicidal. We also can't believe America voted for a feeble old man with dementia who mumbles "I don't know what I'm signing, but I'm gonna sign these Executive Orders." Even though he got his two vaccine shots before he became president. We all believe the election was rigged and stolen. We all know the feeble old man now called "President" would be more at home in an assisted living home than the White House. That man can't be our new president. I have news for my fellow conservative, Republicans, capitalists, and patriots. Biden's not the president. He's a puppet.
