The governor didn’t sign a bill. He signed a “Do Not Enter” sign for educational opportunity.

1/ Rhode Island just gave us another case study in why government-financed housing projects often fail.

The Ocean state spent $52.2 million to produce just 200 rental units.

I explain more in my latest for the @dcexaminer:

Anyone noticed that the gunman that was stopped in Cambridge yesterday was brought down by a concealed carry civilian and former active duty Marine. The left leaning media likes to skip that part. Why your second amendment rights are important for your liberty and your life.

88% of Rhode Islanders agree families should be able to choose the type of public school that best meets their child’s needs.

Yet, this Wednesday, the Senate Education Committee will hear bills designed to restrict charter school growth and limit educational opportunity.

Parents deserve options — not a system that traps kids in failing schools.

Happy (early) Independence Day Rhode Island! 🇺🇸

On May 4, 1776, Rhode Island was the first colony to renounce allegiance to the Crown.

The road to American independence started here, in little Rhody.

Thank you to the town of Burrillville for a great night.

BREAKING NEWS: Seventy-Two Killed Resisting Gun Confiscation In Massachusetts.

A National Guard task-force detailed to confiscate a cache of recently banned assault-style weapons, was ambushed by elements of an anti-Government, para-military extremist faction.

Military and law enforcement sources estimate that 72 were killed and more than 200 injured before government forces were compelled to withdraw.

Speaking after the clash, Massachusetts Governor Thomas Gage declared that the extremist faction, which was made up of local citizens, has links to the radical right-wing tax protest movement.

Gage blamed the extremists for recent incidents of vandalism directed against internal revenue offices. The governor, who described the group’s organizers as “treasonous criminals,” issued an executive order authorizing the summary arrest of any individual who has interfered with the government’s efforts to secure law and order.

The military raid on the extremist arsenal followed wide-spread refusal by the local citizenry to turn over recently outlawed assault-style weapons.

Gage issued a ban on military-style assault weapons and ammunition earlier in the week. This decision followed a meeting in early this month between government and military leaders at which the governor authorized the forcible confiscation of illegal arms.

One government official, speaking on condition of anonymity, pointed out that “none of these people would have been killed had the extremists obeyed the law and turned over their weapons voluntarily.”

Government troops initially succeeded in confiscating a large supply of outlawed weapons and ammunition.

However, troops attempting to seize arms and ammunition in Lexington met with resistance from heavily-armed extremists who had been tipped off regarding the government’s plans.

During a tense standoff in the Lexington town park, National Guard Colonel Francis Smith, commander of the government operation, ordered the armed group to surrender and return to their homes. The impasse was broken by a single shot, which was reportedly fired by one of the right-wing extremists. Eight civilians were killed in the ensuing exchange.

Ironically, the local citizenry blamed the government forces rather than the extremists for the civilian deaths. Before order could be restored, armed citizens from surrounding areas had descended upon the National Guard units. Colonel Smith, finding his forces over matched by the armed mob, ordered a retreat.

Governor Gage has called upon citizens to support the state/national joint task force in its effort to restore law and order. The governor also demanded the surrender of those responsible for planning and leading the attack against the government troops.

Samuel Adams, Paul Revere, and John Hancock, who have been identified as “ringleaders” of the extremist faction, remain at large.

And this fellow Americans, is exactly how the American Revolution began, April 19, 1775.

History. Learn it, or repeat it.

The visual representation should also show the Democratic super majority in our State House. Democrats passed the disastrous Act on Climate law that doubled the cost of energy in our state. This, more than any other chart, illustrates why our utility bills are so high.

SENATOR COLLINS TO SUPPORT SAVE ACT:

Here is her exclusive comment to the Maine Wire:

"The law is clear that in this country, only American citizens are eligible to vote in federal elections. In addition, having people provide an ID at the polls, just as they have to do before boarding an airplane, checking into a hotel, or buying an alcoholic beverage, is a simple reform that will improve the security of our federal elections and will help give people more confidence in the results."

In summary, this chart sums it all up ... RI's Act On Climate mandates would cost over $58 BILLION, and without many gov't subsidies under 47, a larger share of that would be RI's responsibility. OR ... we can SAVE $29 B by going nuclear ... or we can SAVE $51 B by going the natural gas route. WHAY SAY YOU?
