F*cking liars! Just saw on the news how at a hearing today, #DHS said that #NewHampshire governor #KellyAyotte had given them approval to build an #ICEFacility in #MerrimackNH, and Ayotte stated that this morning was the first she had heard of it!!!

#ChrisPappas, a Congressman from #NewHampshire, just spammed me about _his_ Senate campaign, also through #SparkPost, also in violation of their Acceptable Use Policy.
I have sent his staff a response similar to the one I sent Brian Bengs, and also sent a similar complaint to SparkPost.
These fucking politicians who think the rules don't fucking apply to them (certainly the _laws_ don't, they've seen to that by exempting politicians from anti #spam laws!) piss me the hell off.

Oh look- Jason Osborne’s (L-NH) scam textbook company got away with making a whole bunch of kids illiterate. Are we great yet?

This lying asshole, she wanted us to go to food banks. Her office sent us a list of snap recipient only food banks.
“New Hampshire already acted,” said Gov. Ayotte when asked why the state did not comply with a Trump administration demand to return some of those federal funds.
“My job as governor is to serve the people of New Hampshire,” she said. “That's what I did.”

Of course fuckin Fetterman sided with republicans. Of course. And these women from NH aren’t up for reelection, but Shaheen’s daughter is running. Bill Shaheen represents medical providers who get sued for malpractice so it’s interesting his wife doesn’t care if a whole bunch of people can’t pay for medical care anymore.

I am so deeply irritated that New Hampshire Democrats just aren't going to run a primary for Shaheen's Senate seat next year and have simply blessed Chris Pappas as the nominee.
The NH GOP has done the same thing, which also sucks.
But now I'm getting all these emails about how it's Pappas running against the corporately bought Sununu, and I'm just shaking my head asking, "Does no one remember that Pappas is literally married to a Tech Lobbyist?"
one of the millions of posts to think about when MAGAs and Elon etc. are saying that the left wing are the ones calling for violence
(this was apparently posted to the Libertarian Party's account by Jeremy Kauffman, an infamous race scientist and favourite of #elon. it earned him a visit from the #FBI and/or secret service, which he documented on social media)

#VisuallyImpaired #voters sue #NewHampshire over changes to #Absentee #BallotAccess
The plaintiffs say the new law will deter some voters with #disabilities from participating in the democratic process at all, even after they have registered to vote
By Steven Porter Globe Staff, Updated August 21, 2025, 9:30 a.m.
"Three people with visual impairments are suing New Hampshire officials to challenge the constitutionality of a law that will soon tighten #PhotoID requirements for voters seeking an #AbsenteeBallot.
"The plaintiffs — Adele Robertson of #ExeterNH, Daniel Frye of #ConcordNH, and Regina Wilson of #BrentwoodNH — allege the new law, known as #SenateBill287, will impose a significant burden on every #AbsenteeVoter statewide.
" 'And, in some cases, these burdens will entirely prevent voters from exercising their #RightToVote,' their lawsuit states.
Under the new rules imposed by #SB287, voters will be required to either bring a photo ID to their local election officials to request an absentee ballot in person, or submit a copy of their ID or a notarized signature along with their application.
While proponents said the legislation will better protect election integrity, critics said the changes will add barriers that disproportionately impact #seniors, voters with #disabilities, and those living in #rural parts of the state."

@VSNSocialJustice Boo hiss... So much for "#LiveFreeOrDie", eh?
A warning about NH, expressed in two links:
https://newhampshirebulletin.com/briefs/gov-ayotte-signs-two-anti-sanctuary-city-bills/
If you have the ability to leave here, please leave. If you have the choice to come here, don't. It's North MAGAstan up here, and increasingly unsafe for anyone not a white supremacist. NH has always been a bit of a shit hole, but it's going to get a lot worse very quickly. Save yourself if you can.
good night and good luck to #NewHampshire's teachers and firefighters

The same day that the NH Senate killed three bills designed to make Cannabis more accessible to Granite Staters, they are pushing forward a bill designed to allow Bar Patrons to pour their own Beer.
I have worked in Bars. I can't imagine anyone who does actually wants patrons doing this. It'll be a mess.
And the continued idea that Cannabis is Dangerous and Must Be Stopped but Alcohol is A-OK makes *zero* sense.
@QasimRashid New Hampshire, please come collect your fascist senators Maggie Hassan and Jeanne Shaheen. They need to go home.
Really wiping their butts with the whole "live free or die" motto, eh?
#Nazis in #newhampshire staged a hasty retreat on their plans to shutter the New Hampshire State Library after a wave of outrage and anger from constituents. #resist #resistance #uspol #uspolitics #freedom #library #nhpol #nhpolitics
@indivisibleteam #NewHampshire and #RhodeIsland folks, check above to see if your senator is one of the ones mentioned, and if so give them a call today!
I just found this flyer on the New Hampshire legal aid website and I love that they’re trying to get this information out there.
This is how we participate in committee hearings and ratio bad bills to death.
(This is from 2022 & I guess they were successful in restoring the ability to do public comment remotely because I’ve been doing it all this year.)
I am so excited about this because I’ve been trying to get my friends to join me and making public opposition or support, and now I can just send them this photo.
This is a “porn ban” for NH being heard on Wednesday in the NH judiciary committee.
It’s wild because it’s telling electronics manufacturers they have to install a filter on smart phones and tablets that would prevent minors from accessing obscene materials, and I just don’t understand how they think device manufacturers are going to go through all this just so they can sell devices in our tiny state. We can just go buy them in mass. Or kids can use their laptops because those aren’t included in this law.
Anyway if you would like to support or oppose the bill you can use this link right here
https://gc.nh.gov/house/committees/remotetestimony/
After you enter your information you would choose February 5, then you would choose the judiciary committee from the drop-down, then you would choose HB293 at 11 AM, support or oppose, and if you write anything in the text box just be aware that it becomes public record.
If the link here does not show you the text for the bill you should see a drop-down for “version” and you’ll just want to choose introduced, or if there’s a more recent one pick that one. That should allow you to read the whole bill.
We don’t have a hearing date for this one yet but NH HB600 is for Ranked Choice Voting.
I know that the dems hate the idea of ranked choice voting because then independent parties have a chance, but this is exactly why we need #RCV
