One time it was a teen parent in foster care and her foster parent said she wasn't caring for her baby, but it turned out they were misunderstanding what the dr had said. Another time the home was dirty but not to the point of being unsafe. Sometimes allegations will prove to have been untrue.

He's also been known to bow down to the police unions, who have spent so long treating it as a major crime they can't begin to contemplate it as nothing. It's a systemic brainwashing.

Yes, because if they legalize it first then it becomes a lot more difficult to control sales later. Though I think legalizing personal possession would be a wonderful stop gap. it's not like they're stopping anyone from buying weed when most of the state is within 2 hours of legal purchase and the worst you'll get is a desk ticket.

He wants it that way is bs- he’s hiding behind a thin curtain with that excuse! He doesn’t want you to blame him. “It’s not my fault, the fed won’t let me!”🤷‍♀️

He is full of it! So, no other business model works but his idea?? He’s laughable on this one!

What an embarrassment these dinosaur RINOs like Sununu are. We’re surrounded by blue states with legal weed and NH is supposed to stand for freedom. Need to vote all these corrupt self serving morons out. There’s like 6 legal weed stores right over the border in Maine within 45 minutes from me.

Because Sununu’s base is all uptight over marijuana legalization due to them having the same mind set as the Bedford person you elude to.

Wait for them to fall unwell or need it medically, then the tune changes!! Oh, it’s wonderful. So glad I can alleviate pain/anxiety/ you name it here with it . Then they get a medical card and feel above it all.

So, the problem is Sununu- his base feels they all paid for drug rehabilitation and pot is a gateway and the devils lettuce - so, he would lose his re election and all the benefits he and his businesses make off his position.

That’s why. So, let’s all vote differently for the person who wants to open the doors instead of hiding behind old thought processes in order to maintain their personal agenda… watch Sununu invest into marijuana and then maybe. But otherwise, he said he would never allow it at a function where he spoke exactly to this point ( it was a ski lodge!)

The Dem Party is allowed to set its own rules, more or less, on how it picks a nominee for president. The general election is obviously much more governed by rules outside of the control of any one party.

Because all states now offer caucuses or primary elections, the major parties have settled on that system. But they don’t have to use it.

Dems are saying that they still want to pick their nominee using the primary process, but they want a different order.

The problem is that they can’t control the date a state holds their primary. So if a state does not change its primary date to match the Dem’s preferred schedule, DNC has two options: accept the primary and assign delegates at the national convention based on the primary results; or do not put weight on the primary.

The DNC is saying they will go with option 2. They say that if NH goes forward with the FITN primary, then NH will not get any votes at the national convention (or the votes will count for half) thereby limiting NH’s influence on the party’s nominee for president. The DNC has further said that if NH goes forward with the FITN primary, any candidate who campaigns in NH during the primary will not be invited to any DNC sponsored primary debates. So they are trying to use the leverage to get NH legislature to change their laws.

NH isn’t changing its laws, it’s going forward with FITN primary in 2024. Unclear what DNC will do. A few elections ago, DNC tried to get FL and MI to change its primary process, making threats similar to the ones they are making now. FL and MI didn’t make the changes the DNC wanted, but the DNC eventually relented and FL and MI’s votes were counted just like all of the others. Presumably that is what they will do here as well, but since NH is a smaller state, they may feel more empowered to cut it off and tell NH to fuck off. The problem with that is that NH is a purple state but has 2 blue congresspeople and 2 blue senators. Party should be a little wary of getting too adverse to NH, because they are going to need to protect those seats.

Even being a medical card holder in this state is a joke. The prices are highway robbery. Take a drive up to Maine and everything is half the price. NH is just hemorrhaging money to every neighbor state. It's honestly pathetic.

Here's an idea stop voting tools into office time and time again. When half of voters don't even bother voting. Politicians are going to do whatever the hell they want. They know there are no repercussions. Double energy cost no worries. Double housing cost it's all good let run for president. The tools are us.

Hell we reelected a known sex trafficking pedophile to Congress and we're happy too.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
