Clear and correct, from Natasha Sarin (gift link):

A new one from me, on how New Hampshire’s race for governor is shaping up to be same old same old. #NHPolitics

Thursday was a tough loss for the Fisher Cats (known to some as the Space Potatoes) vs. the Yard Goats but a great night in the park for the Bulletin staff: @mmitchellreports.bsky.social @mollyrains.bsky.social @ethandewitt.bsky.social @willskipworth.bsky.social @danawormald.bsky.social

A new column, this one on New Hampshire House Republicans' push for campus carry — a bad bill that sparked a truly deplorable salvage attempt. #NHPolitics

A new column, this one on the broad interconnectedness of policy — especially when it comes to New Hampshire's housing shortage. #NHPolitics

A new column, this one on the broken federal tax code within which New Hampshire operates, and how the state's fiscal choices consistently exacerbate that brokenness. #NHPolitics

This week's column focuses on a few small bills, rejected by NH Senate Republicans, that aim to chip away at big, and expensive, problems. Choosing inaction, and laying those increasingly costly and harmful problems at the feet of the future, has become the New Hampshire way. #NHPolitics

A new column from me, this one on national health insurance, education costs in New Hampshire, and why we can't have nice things. #NHPolitics

A new one from me, on the true cause of New Hampshire’s high property taxes. NHPolitics

Here’s the thing—especially on April 15: cutting the IRS isn't some abstract budget trim. It's a tax cut delivered through weaker enforcement. And it mostly goes to people with the most scope to hide income.

If you follow the Bulletin (thank you for that), why not follow the reporters who make it what it is, too? They are: @mollyrains.bsky.social @willskipworth.bsky.social @mmitchellreports.bsky.social @ethandewitt.bsky.social As always, thank you for reading. #NHPolitics.

A new column: New Hampshire Republicans are still working hard to keep certain voting groups from having a voice, all in the name of "election integrity." Their own data, and words, unmask the lie. #NHPolitics

Kicking the can down the road: How one veto is New Hampshire in a nutshell. #NHPolitics

At "No Kings" rallies across New Hampshire, crowds protest Trump administration, war in Iran. #NHPolitics

Follow #NoKings protests throughout the nation via States Newsroom's live blog:

The Good Trouble Band covers Barry McGuire’s Vietnam-era “Eve of Destruction” outside of the State House in Concord. #NoKings

A new one from me, on how much New Hampshire Republicans love lists and rankings — but probably not all of them. #NHPolitics

FREEDOM TO COVER A WAR: Federal Judge Paul L. Friedman in a stunning decision has voided a Pentagon press policy that said DOD could evict reporters who reported unauthorized material; outlets gave up credentials rather than comply ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

A new one from me, on a far-right thread running through the New Hampshire Legislature. #NHPolitics

A new one from me, on NH House Majority Leader Jason Osborne and how he is leading his party's bleak pursuits. #NHPolitics

An income tax debate in New Hampshire? Well, not quite. A new column on the state of New Hampshire's stuckness and the GOP's demolition destination. #NHPolitics

A new column, on Ayotte, ICE, and the craven NIMBYism of the GOP. #NHPolitics

"Nickenley’s death cannot be understood as an isolated incident. It reflects a persistent and well-documented pattern of police violence that falls most heavily on Black people and unhoused community members." Commentary from Grace Kindeke and Tanisha Johnson #NHPolitics

NH House Republicans are moving forward with a new attempt to regulate teaching on race, history, and LGTBQ+ issues in public schools. On Thursday, the chamber passed a bill that would ban certain types of instruction and punish teachers who carried it out. From @ethandewitt.bsky.social #NHPolitics

A new one for me, on the issue that has been front and center throughout my 30-year journalism career in New Hampshire, with no progress to speak of. #NHPolitics

Remembered seeing Jesse Jackson as a student at UMaine but had a hard time pinning down the date. Finally found it in a partial Maine Campus article in the digital archives. April 23, 1991. That last quote hits hard given where we are now.

A new column from me, on the coming Romney-ization of MAGA-enabling Republicans and why the redemption arc toward the center-right still leaves N.H. and the nation in a bad (and familiar) spot. #NHPolitics

A new one from me, on the old economic myth that still forms the policy foundation of the New Hampshire GOP. #NHPolitics

Here’s a new one from me, which took shape yesterday with an early morning text to my mom. I’m trying to understand why life seems harder for families now, in so many ways, than 60 years ago. Here’s where I landed. #NHPolitics

Federal immigration officers shot a third Minnesotan in as many weeks, according to video posted to social media and confirmed in a post by Gov. Tim Walz. From @madisonmcvan.bsky.social and @michellemgriff.bsky.social via @minnesotareformer.com

Being documented vs. undocumented is a spectrum. Lots of the people being detained and deported by ICE have permission to be in the U.S. — pending asylum claims or visa applications.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

New Hampshire Rep. Kristin Noble's comments last week in support of school segregation reveal a lot about her world view — and something about the nature of the Republican coalition, too. #NHPolitics

A new one: In NH, politicians like to use the tyranny of averages to convince people their financial struggles are illusory. While real solutions require real effort and collaboration, tapping into a national reservoir of hatred is easy. And for the GOP, this is the golden age of that kind of easy.

Here's something brief I wrote on Friday morning about Renee Good. It's not a column, really, but something between a dream and a prediction.

Beautifully written (as yr. readers have come to expect). The "frame-up" reveals another sick aspect of current US society-- the insistence that people obey *self-proclaimed* lawmakers. I supervised a couple hundred OSHA inspectors at one time. We had enforcement powers, but we were not the police.

Excellent piece - and SPOT ON! There is no such thing as a ‘moderate Republican’ if they voted for this insanity and inhumanity and aren’t now renouncing it full force. Sitting back, pocketing the gains, waiting for whatever comes next is unconscionable.

An unofficial column: A presidential address to the nation. Someday, maybe.

A new column: "To be a modern Republican is to declare that there is very little you won’t endorse, whether through applause or silence, to accomplish whatever it was that made you a conservative to begin with." #NHPolitics

The Bulletin’s William Skipworth has won a Collier Spotlight award for his three-part report on abuse and neglect in New Hampshire’s intellectual and developmental disability care system. #NHPolitics

A new one from me about school vouchers, but also the politics of disconnection and how it enables sweeping cruelty. And, finally, how in such a world small kindnesses serve as an act of rebellion. #NHPolitics

"Individual disconnection enables large cruelties — and this country is more disconnected than it is divided. In such a place, there is nothing small about small kindnesses." Commentary from @danawormald.bsky.social #NHPolitics

"The idea, reflected in the state and national policies of tax cuts for the wealthy and simultaneous cuts to supports and services for everyone else, is that wealthy people deserve to keep their full wealth and poor people deserve to keep their full poverty." Commentary from @danawormald.bsky.social

A new column: How committed are New Hampshire Republicans to wealth inequality? From the infamous tax repeal to universal vouchers to “Don’t Mass Up New Hampshire,” the answer is “totally.” #NHPolitics

There is one overriding political problem, from which all others follow. Until it is addressed, every policy advanced by governments is window dressing. www.theguardian.com/inequality/2...

Just 0.001% hold three times the wealth of poorest half of humanity, report finds

Commentary from @danawormald.bsky.social: "Expansive, policy-driven inequality is the Republican Party’s guiding light, whether you call it Reaganomics, or neoliberalism, or Trumpism, or trickle-down economics." #NHPolitics

"As just about any working-class American family will tell you, the real 'distortion of reality' is the idea that a family of four can do anything but suffer on $32,150 a year." Commentary from @danawormald.bsky.social #NHPolitics
