With the Major League Baseball All-Star Game coming up next week, I am reminded of my dad’s ignominious plight. Most baseball fans do not realize that there are 504 former players, including my dad, Cranston, Rhode Island’s Dave Stenhouse, who are being jipped out of well-deserved pensions by the league (MLB) and the players’ association […]
Yesterday, Dr. James McDonald, former RIDOH Interim Director and Medical Director, was deposed by attorney Gregory Piccirilli. According to sources who witnessed the deposition, McDonald, under oath, revealed what most close observers suspected all along; that most of the highly-restrictive pandemic measures recommended by RIDOH and adopted by the Raimondo and McKee administrations … were arbitrarily made, likely for political reasons to follow what we now know was a false government narrative, with little or no actual scientific or credible data basis.

The political supremacists are back: Opportunists and self-anointed elitists, who know best of course, and who exploit almost every tragedy to impose their values on the rest of us. What George Orwell described as “doublespeak” by the Party (Big Brother), the pattern is the same when it comes to the most high profile issues of […]
Most don’t realize that Rhode Island is facing a potential energy crisis: Our state does not have the energy infrastructure needed to meet demand. As a result, we have among the highest average retail prices for energy as compared with other states. In fact, this is a New England-wide problem. As E&E News put it, […]

As a Harvard graduate myself, it is encouraging to see that apparently not all students and staff at woke institutions like Harvard University have been indoctrinated by anti-American propaganda.
Developing … In yet another victory for the Parents United plaintiffs against school mask mandates, Providence School swill go back to mask optional next Tuesday, May 31. Public documents include: Superior Court Stipulation School Department letter to parents The stipulation appears to represent a compromise, where both the RIDOH (one of the plaintiffs) and the […]
Rhode Island Governor Daniel McKee is about to sign into law the “Let RI Vote Act” … which, tragically, is based on two BIG LIES. You know what the original BIG LIE is, right? According to the mainstream media and anti-Trump politicians, the BIG LIE is the ostensibly false notion pushed by former President Trump […]

What are we doing to our children? The leaked news that the Supreme Court may be about to overturn its controversial 1973 Roe v. Wade decision has sent political shock waves across America. It’s also given new life to the left’s faux trope about “the right’s war on women.” But if we take a step back and take an […]
Parental outcry killed a bill that would have mandated universal Covid vaccination, with monthly fines and doubled income tax as punishment
Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, the political supremacists in seats of power cavalierly issued their edicts and their mandates, while the mainstream media cheered them on. Across America, the Big Media and their Big Tech and Big Biz allies have served as the official “hit men” for the Big Covid cabal.
In recent years, the woke left has taken control in the affluent small town of Barrington, Rhode Island – dominating the seats of power on both the town council and the school committee … secretly and defiantly imposing their radical and divisive agenda upon their own taxpayers, veteran groups, students, and teachers. The disdain these […]
The relentless legal pressure applied by attorney Gregory Piccirilli, representing dozens of Parents Union plaintiffs, is producing major dividends, despite efforts by the McKee administration and the RI Department of Health to quash their lawsuit actions. In the original Southwell v McKee school mask mandate lawsuit brought by the Parents Union plaintiffs, the State of […]
Lawsuit is not “moot”. Dr Stephen Skoly may have won a significant battle last week in his fight to continue providing critical surgical care to his patients, but the larger legal war is not over.

Ocean State motorists dodged a bullet last December when the TCI Gas Tax was defeated here and in 13 other northeast states. The “Transportation and Climate Initiative (TCI)” would have artificially increased gasoline prices by up to 35 cents per gallon, while steadily reducing available fuel supplies, by ceding a major portion of our state’s […]
The rule changes proposed last week by the RI Department of Health (RIDOH) are nothing but a blatant power grab, even as state health officials hail it as a major step towards returning our state to normal. Technically, the recommended provisions would amend R.I. Gen. Laws Chapter 23-17 and § 23-17.7.1 to make permanent new […]

Why are Gov. Dan McKee and the media so compliant? On his first day as Director of Health, James McDonald LIES by stating blatant disinformation that naturally acquired immunity “doesn’t last as long as vaccine immunity.” During yesterday’s press conference, Pat Ford of The Coalition Radio Network asked a critical question. Watch the video now. Per Israeli study & Dr Andrew Bostom – the exact OPPOSITE IS TRUE!
Remake RI DOH Despite claims of her ‘resignation’, the more likely January firing of Nicole Alexander-Scott as Director of the RI Department of Health (RI DOH), quickly followed by the departure of her top capo, Thomas McCarthy, presents a major opportunity for Governor McKee to remake the crumbling health organization, which completely missed the target […]
In December 2021 Major League Baseball owners “locked out” current players, a pre-emptive move calculated to gain negotiating advantage in the pending negotiations for a new collective bargaining agreement. But did you know that elderly MLB retirees have been locked out for decades?
