The Seabrook power plant produces enough energy to satisfy 90% of New Hampshire’s energy demand. But we don’t get this 90%. In fact, New Hampshire only gets about 10% of the energy generated at Seabrook. Massachusetts gets 44%. Connecticut gets 24%. Maine gets 10%. Rhode Island gets 7%. Vermont gets 5%. Why? Because we’re in a stupid energy co-op with these states where kilowatts are traded like barrels of oil. All of the regional energy gets pooled into one big pot. There was a time when maybe this deal made sense. But the problem today is some of those states have mandated their power companies invest into “green energy” (renewables) which comes with huge up front expenses and much lower output. These mandates, along with the insane taxes other states assess on energy providers, drive up the costs for everyone in the co-op. This is a really bad deal for us. Right now we’re paying as much as 27 cents per kWh. If we WEREN’T in the co-op, and were able to keep 100% of Seabrook’s energy in NH, we could be paying a literal third of that — ~9 cents per kWh INCLUDING distribution costs — for 90% of our energy, and then buy only the last 10% we need from other states or Canada. What would it take to get here?

Rome handed out free grain to 40,000 citizens in 73 BC. By 46 BC, Julius Caesar found 320,000 people lining up for their monthly ration. That eight-fold expansion happened in under three decades, and it shows you how welfare states actually grow. No Roman senator stood up and announced a plan to addict a third of the city to government bread. It happened incrementally, through political competition. Each magistrate who wanted votes expanded eligibility. Each expansion normalized the next one. The citizen who once considered the dole shameful eventually expected it, then demanded it, then organized politically to protect it. This is the core mechanism free market thinkers have identified across every era: once you create a transfer program, you create a constituency for that program. Recipients vote. Administrators build careers. Grain merchants who supply the state develop a stake in keeping the contracts flowing. The political economy locks in. Caesar, to his credit, actually cut the rolls back to 150,000 through verification audits. It was one of his more economically coherent moves, though the Senate still murdered him. His successors quietly let the numbers climb again. What did the dole require? Massive grain imports from Sicily, Sardinia, and Egypt, organized through state logistics at state expense, funded by taxation and conquest. When the conquest revenue dried up, the obligation remained. Rome had written a check against future military success, and future military success eventually failed to arrive. The lesson is not complicated. Distribute a benefit and you distribute dependency. Distribute dependency and you distribute political power to whoever controls the distribution. The grain dole didn't weaken Rome overnight, but it made every subsequent reform politically impossible.

Here we have two patriotic women, Sydney Sweeney and Sophie Cunningham, that the Left has tried to cancel with all of their might and failed. Instead, they’re standing together smiling. God bless @sophaller & @sydney_sweeney.

Le CEO de J.P. Morgan a récemment déclaré qu’Elon Musk était l’Einstein du XXIe siècle. Je suis assez d’accord avec lui. Imagine Einstein en 1905 : il pose les bases de la relativité, une révolution totale. Et pourtant… il faut attendre près de 20 ans pour que le monde entier le reconnaisse comme la superstar qu’il était. Le temps que les idées infusent, que les résistances tombent, que la preuve devienne irréfutable. On vit exactement la même chose avec Elon. Il ne se contente pas d’innover. Il redéfinit les standards sur absolument tout : la façon dont on manage une société, la manière dont un État devrait être gouverné, la recherche et l’académisme qu’il a rendu obsolètes (coincés dans un modèle lent, bureaucratique et déconnecté), et surtout l’éducation. Il a compris que l’enfant n’a pas besoin qu’on le pousse pour passer des heures sur un jeu vidéo. Il faut que l’apprentissage soit aussi captivant, aussi fluide, aussi addictif qu’un bon game. C’est en connectant ces deux mondes qu’on libère le potentiel humain. Avec SpaceX, il a redessiné l’avenir de l’humanité dans l’espace. Avec Tesla, Neuralink, xAI, il aligne l’énergie, l’intelligence et la conscience sur une trajectoire d’abondance. Pour la première fois, un homme a la capacité d’exécuter sa vision sans intermédiaires. Pas de comités, pas de lobbies, pas de dilutions. Juste du premier principe, du risque assumé et une exécution implacable. Dans 15-20 ans, quand le globalisme et le wokisme seront relégués aux oubliettes de l’histoire, on verra clairement ce qu’il représente : le personnage historique du XXIe siècle. Celui qui a fait basculer l’humanité d’une ère de déclin moral et bureaucratique vers une ère de conquête, de vérité et de construction massive. Les bâtisseurs gagnent toujours. Et on a la chance de vivre à l’époque où l’un des plus grands est en train d’écrire le chapitre le plus exaltant. Et au travail. 🚀

Mark my words, the high cost of New England's Green Energy mandates will be one of the top NH Voter issues in the 2026 elections!
NEW POLL: New Hampshire Women Alarmed as Winter Electricity Bills Spike via @IWF The New England Women’s Energy Survey was conducted by Wick Insights among a sample of 3,000 women who are likely 2026 general election voters across the six New England states: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont—the region with the highest electricity rates in the nation. New Hampshire Results: 89% are concerned about rising energy costs 78% say they are paying more for energy than they were five years ago 55% believe New Hampshire politicians have misled voters about the effectiveness and costs of the green-energy transition. Bronwyn Sims, New Hampshire resident and Independent Women’s Network leading member, said, “As a New Hampshire resident, I am seeing firsthand how energy costs are forcing residents, especially women managing household budgets, to make impossible choices between keeping the lights on, staying warm, and stretching every dollar just to make ends meet. Our state’s policies should not put us in this position. Lawmakers must act now to pass reforms that lower bills, protect families, and build a reliable, affordable energy future for everyone.” Please click the link to see the full polling results across New England.

In 2010, NH's Pols created an. unrealistic mandate that that 25% of our power must come from renewables by the end of 2025. This is causing massive increases in our electricity costs. Its time to END these mandates! @NHGOP @SenScottBrown @DiLorenzo4NH @Lily4Liberty
