Look who’s playing in the Vermont State Semifinal tonight! It’s the Christian school that forfeited in 2023 vs. a male player—and were then expelled from the league.

Three years and one big legal victory later, they’re back.

Best of luck, ladies! You’ve already made us proud.

EDITORIAL:
Enough Is Enough

By Jon Fetherston

Voters in Massachusetts demanded transparency. Not a press conference. Not a task force. An audit. And yet Auditor Diana DiZoglio now has to sue simply to do the job the people already gave her the authority to do. When an elected auditor has to drag the political class into court to see the books, that’s not a technical dispute — that’s a government terrified of sunlight.

Maine should be paying attention, because it’s walking the same path.

Governor Janet Mills is now under federal pressure over autism centers and MaineCare billing practices. Washington isn’t asking politely anymore. Dr. Mehmet Oz didn’t issue warnings because everything was fine, he did it because the numbers don’t add up and the oversight hasn’t been there. And this didn’t happen overnight. For years, fraud concerns tied to home health care and Gateway Community Services were raised, flagged, and quietly ignored.

At the same time, families in Maine and Massachusetts are being crushed by utility bills that feel less like market forces and more like policy failure. Under Janet Mills and Maura Healey, energy costs have exploded while working people are told this is the cost of doing the right thing, even as their paychecks fall further behind.

Meanwhile, addiction and homelessness are no longer emergencies. They’ve been normalized. Encampments. Overdoses. Emergency rooms overwhelmed. Communities stretched thin. And despite the careful language from governors’ offices, both states function like sanctuary states in practice, no matter how carefully that reality is rebranded during election season.

And here’s the part too many officials won’t say out loud: in both Maine and Massachusetts, governors and mayors routinely posture against ICE cooperation, treating federal immigration enforcement like the problem, not the criminal activity that too often rides along with lawlessness. They’ll hold press conferences condemning enforcement actions faster than they’ll hold press conferences for the families harmed by repeat offenders. They’ll talk about “community trust” while law-abiding residents are left wondering whose safety actually matters.

If your first instinct is to fight ICE instead of fighting crime, you’re sending a message, and the message isn’t subtle: you’d rather protect the system, and the people who exploit it, than protect the families who live under it.

So let’s stop pretending these are isolated issues.

They’re connected.

Blocked audits. Ignored fraud. Exploding costs. Broken public order. And leadership that reacts only when Washington steps in or lawsuits force the issue.

Enough is enough.

When do taxpayers stop being treated like an ATM with no right to ask questions?

When do parents stop being dismissed for wanting boundaries in schools and honesty in policy?

When do we protect children again, not by slogans, but by putting education ahead of ideology and accountability ahead of politics?

Some truths don’t require panels or consultants. Biological sex is real. You don’t have to agree with that belief,disagreement is part of a free society, but disagreement does not justify imposing contested social theories on children or silencing parents who object. Tolerance does not mean coercion, and compassion does not mean compliance.

For too long, a small but loud political class has dictated policy while the majority stayed quiet, working, paying bills, raising families, and trusting leaders to act in good faith. That trust has been abused.

The audits were blocked.
The fraud was ignored.
The bills went up.
The streets got worse.
And ICE became the villain, while ordinary families became the afterthought.

The silent majority isn’t gone.

It’s watching.

And it’s reaching the point where silence no longer feels responsible.

Enough is enough.

@unquirer Can we ask better questions? Are you worried about fraud in our state like in MN? Is there a timeline for how long ICE plans to stay? What do you have to say to all the girls who have had to deal with boys in there sports and the mental health issues you’re causing young girls??

Dear Verizon,

I wrote you but still ain’t got no service,

I thought we were cool, but why do I deserve this missed service.

I sent two texts back in autumn, you must not’ve got ’em,

There probably was a problem with the towers or the modem.

Sometimes the bars just don’t connect when I jot ’em.

But anyway, what’s been up? When’s the signal coming back?

My whole house on SOS mode, yeah we living off the scraps.

I’m your biggest fan, I got the unlimited plan,
But right now my phone look like it’s stuck in 2001, man.

Write me back, just a ping, just a bar, just a sign

Sincerely yours,
Your customer… Stan-ish 😤📱
