Harmeet Dhillon, the U.S. Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department, announced on Tuesday that she is sending teams of election monitors to six states this primary season, New Hampshire being one of them. The alleged purpose of this expenditure of taxpayer dollars is to “increase voter confidence.” Dhillon ought to know better. She attended college in New Hampshire, graduating in 1989. By then, Secretary of State for Life [Emeritus] Bill Gardner* had already been overseeing elections for 12 years, scrupulously enough to make Caesar’s wife look like a floozie. Gardner retired in 2022, but his successor, David Scanlan, would not have survived his twenty year apprenticeship as Gardner’s deputy if he were any less rigorous. Then again, Dhillon went to Dartmouth, that bastion of Ivy League elitism which is the alma mater of so many prominent defenders of the working class. Either the place has a weird effect on the thought processes of certain susceptible undergraduates, or, like some… Saving President Trump
by Richard M. Balzano What happens when a pariah state hosts a global spectacle? That question is more than academic as the United States hosts the FIFA World Cup while waging illegal interventions abroad and brown shirt dirty wars at home, complete with shady detainment facilities and on the cusp of Palantir-induced dystopia to boot. Governments have long understood the public-relations value of international sporting events, using them to project national greatness and rehabilitate tarnished reputations. Argentina’s military dictatorship hoped the 1978 World Cup would do exactly that. As Jorge Rafael Videla’s regime kidnapped, tortured, and murdered thousands of its own citizens in another Latin American torture carnival brought to you by toxic Latin American Cold War anticommunism, the School of the Americas, USAID, and… The Stench of Death at the World Cup

by W.D. Ehrhart Readers who have followed my writing in the New Hampshire Gazette will perhaps recall that I have written multiple times in the past few years about my unusual friendship with a young Palestinian woman named Rawand Gawad Abu Ghanem, to whom I… What Rawand Dreams Of
NEW YORK—The Communist Party U.S.A. (CPUSA) condemned President Trump’s latest red‑baiting tirade against the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) primary victories in New York and the District of Columbia mayoral candidate Janeese Lewis George, calling it a dangerous escalation of anti‑communist hysteria. “MAGA is going… U.S. Reds Reject Trump’s Labeling
–=≈=– Well, the nation appears to have survived the Fourth, provided one overlooks the cage match on the White House lawn and the arrest of an Olympian for interfering with the swampy Reflecting Pool. But the trap just set by the so-called Justice Department, to ensnare and terrorize honest election officials, makes us wonder if our democratic republic will survive Election Day.

“Thanks again, as always, for making the now really bad news somewhat easier to tolerate. The truth, which is now seldom spoken, and never spoken by our nation’s “Liar in Chief,” just keeps getting worse and worse. I am thankful for our still (for now, anyway) free press and late night television comedians’ rants posted on Youtube about the state of our country.”
