Agenda 21 is not a conspiracy theory; it is a real plan of action created by the United Nations in 1992 at the Rio Earth Summit. The document outlines voluntary steps nations should take to achieve sustainable development, including land use planning, protecting ecosystems, managing resources, and reducing carbon emissions.

Truthfully I do not blame these kids at all. It’s what they’re being taught, (that the world is going to end in 5 years) and its all because of us terrible humans! I went through the Vermont schools system, and I can remember laying in my bed at night as a middle schooler, unable to sleep because I was afraid the ice caps would melt and flood everywhere.

To be crystal clear, I’ve never sent an anonymous letter to anyone, ever. Notwithstanding that fact, the Democrat party continues with the claim that “despite criminal interference on his behalf, Democratic and Independent voters in Guilford and Vernon will reject MAGA extremist Jason Herron.” 

The common refrain seems to be, “Don’t worry, the state will pay for it.” However, this mindset creates a dangerous financial spiral that leaves both residents and the government worse off. As state spending grows, so does the expectation that it can cover an ever-expanding list of social programs and environmental goals.

There are many issues that are causing great concern among Vermonters, as I am hearing from most of the people to whom I speak in my Brattleboro District 7.  I encourage all to spread the word, raise questions, and speak out.  This is a critical time for all of us here in Vermont.

So, for the Republicans to take control of the senate for the first time since the 1990s, they would have to hold the seven seats they have, win eight more, plus that LTG race. Can they do it? There is a path!

Unlike Phil, John was a Democrat when he was in the Vermont legislature. “The Democratic Party, when I first entered politics in 2003, looked after working class and poor people,” Rodgers said. “And they don’t do that anymore.”

Frequently, those on the hunt for more tax revenue suggest that the sales and use tax law should be expanded to charge the tax on services—think attorney fees, physician and hospital charges, automobile repairs and maintenance, and the like.  How about making the person who cuts or styles your hair a tax collector?  Or maybe the neighborhood kid who cuts your lawn? 

The cartoon characters laugh and cheer as they sing “…we don’t know where we’re going but we’re merrily, merrily, merrily on our way…!” Well, that’s our legislature and their Clean Heat Standard …and, so, where are we going with VT-CHS?

I also concur with the Governor that the Supermajority’s policies do not represent Vermonters overall views and more importantly their purse strings.  Our families expect reasonable legislation with policies that will help hard working Vermonters. Not drive them out of the state.  At the Lamoille County Field Days, folks told me they want to see the return of local control of their school budgets, programs, and staffing.

Nothing illustrated their fake news more than the lies told by Mr. Trump and Mr. Vance during the recent two televised debates.  Certainly Ms. Harris and Mr. Walz both did their share of embellishing some truths and falsehoods and exaggerating answers.  But very seldom did they lie, and when they did, they did not repeat it. 

So, is anyone in authority systematically looking into just how rampant these sorts of things are? No! Instead, we are constantly being gaslit that Vermont’s elections are not only just fine, they are the cleanest and most perfectest ever since going in on all mail all the time. This is observably false.

On top of Vermonters dealing with 30-100% inflation and lingering hardships from Covid lockdowns, the Democrat Supermajority in our Vermont legislature have over-ridden our Governor’s vetoes and raised our taxes more than 5 times!  You would think they would not want to increase tax burdens on their Vermont constituents at this time.

The October 7th attack was not based on the popularized righteous fight against “the Israeli occupation” or “the brave Resistance of the Palestinian people against European-capitalist-colonial- Zionism,” as taught in too many Western universities and colleges to impressionable and malleable-minded student bodies. 

My own two daughters are leaving state and will probably never return because they just cannot afford to live here.  As a member of my local fire department and rescue squad, I have witnessed firsthand the destruction that the opioid epidemic has inflicted on Vermont families.

The State of Vermont believes it is their responsibility to provide mental health care to your children. No wonder mental health services expenses have gone up at public schools! Many people and parents think these services are needed. Please be aware of the potential dangers of turning over mental health services to the State via the public school system without parental direction, consent, and oversight.

Attallah also commented on the pager attacks in Lebanon, in which Israel has not officially claimed responsibility: “Taiwan manufactures pagers, and Israel injects them with a few milligrams of explosives, and then it does it again, and it can do this yet again in the future, in a way that will be much more lethal and criminal.

I am often a Republican but always an American. I voted for Trump in 2016 to a large degree because he wasn’t Hillary Clinton and voted for Biden in 2020 because he wasn’t Trump. Although I disagree with her on many domestic issues, I will be happy to vote FOR Harris if she consistently articulates a strong foreign policy.

And let’s attribute to most of those who are homeless the desire to improve their conditions and obtain permanent shelter.  Vermonters are generous and compassionate; we want to help.  The question is the best way to help, regardless of a person’s most recent place of residence. 

The next legislative session will be critical in many areas, including education finance and property taxes, rising health care costs, lack of housing and heating costs. Our towns were particularly hard hit with education property taxes this year (Chittenden 24%, Killington 29%, Mendon 22% and Pittsfield 29%). Key lawmakers chose to proceed with their property tax bill rather than find a compromise with the Governor.

In Sanders’ speech, there is never any mention of Hamas terrorists consistently hiding behind innocent Palestinian civilians because that would be raining on their proper propaganda parade. 

The profound impacts of a president’s judicial appointments can be seen in, for example, President Trump’s handiwork in ensuring Americans were stripped of their right to abortion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. Dobbs overturned nearly 50 years of legal precedent, dismantled women’s rights to make our own healthcare decisions, and clouded and confused the future of reproductive liberty for millions of Americans

This quest will ensure that the massive machinery of the Vermont school system with its highest in-the-country ratio of staff to students stays sufficiently overfunded. The education system has become an entrenched and bloated bureaucracy, concerned primarily with perpetuating itself,  which is the nature of a bureaucracy.

During my academic studies (1990’s), this hypothesis of “CO2 Causes Global Warming” was so incredibly debunked, it was not even discussed among students or faculty.  So I began researching it to find out what the new evidence was that has caused it to become the foundation of so much taxation and political rhetoric: “The science is proven.”

It will increase your heating bills, and that is the real issue. Sibilia ignores the many local critics of the Unaffordable Heat act from right here in Vermont – including our Governor, who vetoed the idiotic scheme twice. She ignored them when they testified before her committee, ignored their thousands of phone calls and emails urging her and her colleagues to vote ‘no’ when the bill was up for passage.

“One such reform might be migrating public school personnel management structures more toward merit-based principles and systems while diminishing those based on longevity. Such would reduce pressures on both operating and retirement budgets while maintaining high levels of competency in our classrooms.”

Many people with a variety of relevant expertise testified before House and Senate Committees that completely transforming how we heat our homes and businesses, make hot water, and cook our food was going to be wildly expensive, incredibly disruptive, and logistically difficult if not impossible because, duh.

As more parents hesitate to vaccinate their offspring, government authorities claim their worries are due to disinformation or misinformation. The conflict has caused states to track medical and religious exemptions from school vaccination mandates.
