We get kind of deep this week, and not just because Carla has a literal pain in her butt!
If you want to help people in need in Manchester directly, watch this episode, and get involved! Private charity FTW! We need trees, donations, gifts, etc. Please and thank you!
We talk about Right-to-Know and whether updates in the law should be applied ex-post facto (probably not) and whether Human Rights should trump special interest groups that only give “rights” to some people (definitely).
Read more about the case we mention in the Union Leader: Former Claremont cop seeks to keep files secret (paywall)
We discuss the results of City elections, and the good news of a new incoming Republican Mayor.
We chat about the DNC’s weird and wonderful strategy of refusing to acknowledge NH’s First in the Nation status, resulting in Biden not even appearing on the primary ballot here. And other things.
We discuss recent developments regarding Defend the Guard (HB 229), which came out of committee with 10:10 tie, and now on to a floor fight. We cover progress on Right-to-Know and open government issues, and laud Laurie Ortolano for her work on the issue. If you want to attend the upcoming Nackey Loeb First Amendment Award, where Laurie will be honored, get your annual fundraiser tix HERE. We also talk about the looming World War 3, war criminals, and government (but I repeat myself).
Tammy does a deep dive into the history of the decision to stop trash services to 1,500 buildings in Manchester. In today’s Union Leader, “City aldermen postpone plan to end trash pickup at multi-family properties.”
This week on Manch Talk, we dive into the City’s dumpsters to figure out who is going to be taking out the trash!
This week we discuss the importance of calling things by their proper names. We cover yesterday’s City elections, with our pick, Jay Ruias, coming in first for mayor, followed by Kevin Cavanaugh, the union pick, who, as a sitting alderman is responsible for the past 8 years of decline in Manchester. Only fools would put Cavanaugh in the Mayor’s office.
This week we cover the AG’s cease-and-desist letter pertaining to illegal electioneering done by Gunstock’s management team. We also discuss our picks for next week’s Manchester Primary elections, and more!
