Public Forum
Sorum Fummary (Thursday, October 01 26 10:36 am EDT)
Reading the first"Forum summary" comment, there are several weaknesses you could legitimately challenge:
1. It shifts the burden of proof
The author repeatedly says critics have not produced "receipts," "documents," or factual rebuttals, while simultaneously advancing suspicions of their own.
Example:
"I am beginning to suspect that at least some of these hecklers belong to, work around, benefit from, or instinctively defend Claremont's self-appointed 'super-intelligent' governing class."
The author immediately admits this is only an impression, yet spends an entire paragraph building a narrative around it. That's the same kind of speculation they criticize others for using.
2. False dilemma
The comment presents only two possibilities:
People answer questions with documents and evidence.
People are hecklers protecting the system.
Reality is more complicated. A person could believe Sullivan is wrong, disorganized, biased, repetitive, or misleading without being part of a government cover-up.
3. It dismisses criticism too easily
The summary acknowledges one criticism:
"hundreds of archive links could be organized and indexed more effectively."
Then it largely waves it away because critics did not identify a fraudulent document or fabricated number. Those are not the only standards by which a publication can be criticized. Usability, organization, writing quality, sourcing, context, and editorial judgment are all valid subjects of criticism.
4. Assumes motives without evidence
The author says critics appear to be:
"people protecting a system rather than examining it."
There is no evidence presented for that conclusion. It is mind-reading. The author correctly notes anonymous commenters cannot be identified, then essentially proceeds to infer their motivations anyway.
5. Confuses popularity with significance
The author argues that because critics spend time reading and commenting, the publication must matter.
That does not necessarily follow. People spend significant time criticizing things they dislike. Someone commenting frequently is not evidence that the underlying reporting is accurate or influential.
6. Lack of specific examples
The piece repeatedly references important issues:
school finances
special education compliance
forensic audits
hiring concerns
transparency
But it does not actually demonstrate that any of the underlying allegations are true. It argues these questions deserve answers, which is fair. However, asking a question is not the same thing as proving a problem exists.
A stronger criticism you could make
Instead of attacking the AI used to write it, I'd hit the logic:
"The summary demands evidence from critics while relying on speculation about critics' motives. It argues that anonymous commenters are undermining serious discussion, yet spends a substantial portion of the piece speculating about who those commenters might be and what interests they serve. If evidence is the standard, it should apply equally to both sides."

Sullivan Report Public Forum Summary — October 1, 2026
One correction: the “Forum summary” entry is timestamped 12:43 a.m. EDT, not 12:43 p.m. It was followed by four newer comments.
The 12:43 a.m. summary draws a useful distinction between legitimate public concerns and anonymous heckling. It identifies serious matters still requiring answers: school finances, special-education compliance, the delayed forensic audit, missing stipend records, municipal hiring, housing, and government transparency.
What followed largely proved its point.
“si overwatch” quoted Proverbs 26:4 about not answering fools but offered no factual rebuttal. “Frank Gauth” published a lengthy parody mocking the Sullivan Report’s archives, documents, numbered articles, and presentation. Buried beneath the sarcasm is one fair criticism: hundreds of archive links could be organized and indexed more effectively. However, the commenter identified no fraudulent document, incorrect expenditure, fabricated quotation, or false financial figure.
“jerry p” then joked that “SI” refused to analyze the website. Finally, “conspiracy” asked whether Jim and Francis maintain a red-yarn diagram in the basement. Another joke—but still no receipt.
Here is my personal opinion: I am beginning to suspect that at least some of these hecklers belong to, work around, benefit from, or instinctively defend Claremont’s self-appointed “super-intelligent” governing class.
That is an impression, not a proven identification. Anonymous display names do not reveal who is behind the keyboard, and I will not declare somebody a city employee without evidence. Nevertheless, the pattern is worth noticing.
Whenever questions arise about City Hall, SAU 6, missing records, questionable expenditures, employee qualifications, or administrative failures, the same style of response appears: mock the messenger, ridicule the research, complain about artificial intelligence, and steer attention away from the documents.
Perhaps these are merely unaffiliated residents with an unusual emotional attachment to municipal bureaucracy. Perhaps some have government connections. The forum alone cannot settle that question.
But their conduct creates the appearance of people protecting a system rather than examining it.
The contradiction remains delicious: they claim the Sullivan Report is irrelevant, yet read it closely enough to critique its menus, archives, article numbers, writing style, technology, authors, and punctuation. For a publication nobody supposedly reads, it has attracted a remarkably dedicated unpaid review committee.
The ball remains in their court. Identify the false statement. Produce the correcting document. Explain the disputed expenditure. Answer the public question.
Otherwise, the “super-intelligent class” is merely heckling from the balcony while taxpayers examine the books.
Biblical principle: “For every one that doeth evil hateth the light.” —John 3:20. Public officials and their defenders should answer honest questions with records, not ridicule.

A guy named Yoshi apparently has opinions.
Somebody crashed a cruiser.
LED lights happened.

Counterproposals happened.
More counterproposals happened.
WE HAVE DOCUMENTS.
SO MANY DOCUMENTS.
Documents about documents.
Documents that reference other documents.
Documents which may exist solely to discuss previous documents.
Anyway, today's exciting update is that six new articles were published. We have thoughtfully labeled them:
Article #1
Article #2
Article #3
Article #4
Article #5
Article #6
Because naming things is hard and we had important keyboard pounding to do.
There is also a Dublin Advocate article. Why? Don't ask questions.
The website slogan is:

Which appears to mean:
'If we acquire one more PDF, we achieve enlightenment.'
Thank you for attending today's municipal conspiracy scavenger hunt. Please enjoy the remaining 316 archives on your way out."
In all seriousness, the page looks less like a news site and more like someone emptied an entire filing cabinet onto the internet and said, "You figure it out."

The Sullivan Report Public Forum: Serious Questions Amid the Noise
The Sullivan Report public forum has become a crowded intersection of taxpayer concerns, political arguments, and anonymous heckling. Some contributors bring useful information. Others bring a keyboard and apparently very little restraint.
Through September 30, the latest posts included unsupported claims that a White House memorandum prohibited Francis Gauthier from using artificial intelligence, declarations that commenters had taken over the website, and repeated complaints about AI-assisted writing. These posts offer mockery rather than documented factual corrections.
Elsewhere, contributors trade inflammatory accusations and defenses concerning Jon Stone and Mayor Dale Girard. Serious allegations deserve examination through authenticated records, not acceptance because somebody repeats them loudly.
Substantive discussion remains: school finances, special-education compliance, delayed audits, missing stipend records, housing, and municipal hiring. Scott Maple’s account of helping obtain parents’ signatures supplies a firsthand perspective. Other commenters raise questions about qualifications and recruitment, although their assertions require verification.
The distinction is straightforward: criticism identifies a problem and supports it. Trolling substitutes insults, repetition, and invented scenarios.
Anonymous posting also makes it impossible to determine whether the noise represents many residents or a few persistent contributors. Volume is no substitute for evidence. (sullivanreport.com)
Biblical principle: Examine before judging—Proverbs 18:13. Demand the same evidence from allies and critics.

To be hated
To be fated to telling only lies
But my dreams they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free
No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you (you, you, you)
No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through
But my dreams they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free
No one knows what it's like
To be mistreated, to be defeated
Behind blue eyes
And no one knows how to say
That they're sorry and don't worry
I'm not telling lies
But my dreams, they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free
No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man

Dale = Predator Protector (Monday, September 28 26 08:13 pm EDT)
Fuck Dale. What a piece of shit holding a campaign sign for a known predator in the town that his victims live. We need to vote that disgusting evil pig out. How many comments to this affect, and the piece of shit has not responded to put out a single statement on it.
Either you stand with Jon Stone's victims. I do.
You you stand with that pervert. Like Dale does.
We all get a bit hot headed (Monday, September 28 26 07:58 pm EDT)
Was Jon Stone a perv and predator back in the day? Yes, but it has been a real long time. The underage girl he was paling around with is an oldie now. If she isn't over it, its her problem. He didn't kill someone. People get second chances. He's been around children since and hasn't pulled anything we know of. Hasn't been arrested. Not on the child sex predator list. He can go near schools, unlike what others have said. Give the dude a chance. He didn't actually rape the chief's wife. He just got a bit hot headed and threatened to do it.

Has it occurred to you that no one qualified is applying or accepting the job offers?
Why don’t you apply for a city job, save the taxpayer money and lead by example and work hard for the people of Claremont?
Maybe look into their first choice for parks and rec director and why he chose to decline the cities offer? The hiring team also declined to meet with an individual whose qualifications include an MBA in corporate finance and MS sports and entertainment management.

Scott Maple (Monday, September 28 26 01:37 pm EDT)
Good afternoon, Jim! I read the article in regard to IEP’s being out of compliance. When I was the Truancy Officer, I worked with the Special Educators, in helping those documents getting signed by parents, so that compliance would stay in effect. Not that it was part of my job description but the staff and students mattered to me, so I would help in making home visits to get those documents signed. I tried explaining this to the Superintendent but again it’s something that he either didn’t know or just didn’t want to hear.
William (Monday, September 28 26 06:57 am EDT)
The finance committee members are all a piece of shit. The bottom is falling out of special education with higher costs of over $10.3 million and the revenues from the state and federal government that Claremont receives is in jeopardy of being lost because 63% of the IEP’s are not in compliance. The cause is a catastrophic failure by the school board and the administration to properly run the school district. I agree with Jim Sullivan that the $700,000 revenue figure that he found in school records is a low amount of money and is substantially higher. This could have a profound negative effect on the property tax rate in Claremont. The problems with the tuition revenues and the nearly $300,000 loss in adequacy aid on top of a budget deficit of almost $1 million that still hasn’t been quantified shows we are on the brink of financial disaster once again and the school leadership is hiding these facts from us to hide their incompetence. Thank you Jim Sullivan for showing us the truth and for having our backs when the school and city leaders do not.

Jon Stone = Satan
Dale Girard = Evil personified.
I side with victims over the perverts that victimize them. Dale Girard doesn't give two shits about the victims of Jon Stone's disgusting behavior.
Dale: have you offered to meet with the victims before you put up a sign for that monster?!?
And what about the wife of the police chief he threatened to RAPE?!?
Richard (Monday, September 28 26 03:23 am EDT)
The city councilors are to blame for all of the bad hiring choices because they and their predecessors have hired a long line of bad city managers since Guy Santagate retired. Each choice worse than the previous one. Bates was a disaster and Bergeron is a dope. The new parks and recreation director changes jobs too frequently. He can’t seem to make up his mind what he wants to be when he grows up. Like the planning and development director he does not stay at any place long and her long mental health break from working is unsettling. The new finance director has a new side hustle that she will be working on probably during the day at city hall. Just like the new superintendent at the school district. The new assistant building inspector has several side hustles and only a high school education and no practical background in code enforcement. I remember that Jim Sullivan reported how the fire chief and police chief were on the hiring team that choose these three new employees and I seem to remember they also helped choose the new planning and development director. The side hustles should have not bothered the fire chief because he has a side hustle of his own with that psychiatry app endorsement and who know what else he has going for a side hustle. All of these new employees appear to fail to meet the minimum qualifications for their positions but they were hired anyway. Mayor Girard and the other city councilors are at the top of the city’s organizational chart so the blame begins and ends with them for all of the poor hiring choices because they keep choosing unqualified city managers. All of their past bad decisions and there are so many are beginning to do serious damage to Claremont’s reputation and financial health.
Synopsis today’s newsflash (Sunday, September 27 26 10:28 pm EDT)
1. School finance and special education. Sullivan says the September 15 School Board Finance Subcommittee meeting was not recorded and its minutes are too thin to explain a two-and-a-half-hour discussion. He focuses on a statement in the minutes that 63% of IEPs are out of compliance and warns of a possible loss of anticipated special education revenue. He also points to a projected $292,676.55 drop in adequacy aid. The size of any actual revenue shortfall is not established in the article.
2. The stalled forensic audit — guest editorial by Francis Gauthier. This piece traces the audit from the district’s decision to pursue it, through hiring CBIZ, to reports that it was underway, and finally to news that it is on hold. It asks whether the auditors ever examined a transaction and calls for the board to disclose the check history, work performed, contract status, and any proposed change in scope.
3. The missing stipend spreadsheet. Sullivan says he has spent nearly a month seeking an updated spreadsheet of employee stipends for the school year that ended June 30. He already has an earlier version, but says SAU 6 has yet to produce a later one or clearly say whether one exists. He plans to press the superintendent and board for a response under New Hampshire’s Right-to-Know law.
4. September 23 City Council meeting. Sullivan gives a sharply critical account of the council and city manager, including public complaints raised at the meeting. Topics include the lack of a Facebook livestream, new department heads, an unpaid Visitor Center consultant bill, plans for a warming hut, housing and traffic concerns, and the council’s action on a community center funding transfer and an RSA 79-E application for 11 Main Street. Much of the piece is Sullivan’s opinion about the officials’ performance, alongside his account of meeting business.
5. Qualifications of three city hires. Sullivan examines the publicly available backgrounds of Finance Director Maureen Hulslander, Parks and Recreation Director Patrick Saucier, and Deputy Building Inspector and Health Officer Ryan MacLeay against city job qualifications. He questions whether each has the experience the position calls for and publishes material concerning MacLeay’s résumé and training. The article raises questions; it does not establish that any of the three is legally unqualified.
6. Trinity Street inspector — guest editorial by Francis Gauthier. This piece recounts Gauthier’s September 25 conversation with MacLeay during a visit concerning 10 Trinity Street. It asks what inspection experience, certifications, training, and supervision MacLeay has, and whether the city’s records support assigning him enforcement duties. It calls for documents that can settle those questions rather than treating the street-side conversation as proof of his qualifications.
The common thread is records and accountability: school finances, the audit’s actual progress, access to the stipend list, council decisions, and the qualifications behind city enforcement work. Proverbs 18:13 cautions against answering a matter before hearing it; here, the practical step is to get the underlying records before reaching a verdict.

It's high T alphas like Jon Stone and Donald against you soy boys. I want my representatives to be a guys guys that can grab or get pussy. Not some Telefreko or Pappas metrosexual.
I agree that Dale is a piece of shit. We don't need that fag democrat in sheeps clothing trying to get elected as a republican because people won't look into him and just look for the republican. Look at the shit hole he has made claremont into. Just say no to him.
Vote No on the Pervert Pair (Sunday, September 27 26 05:31 am EDT)
Jon Stone threatened to RAPE the police chief's wife, MURDER the police chief, and shot up the police station. Why? Because they were investigating him for having an inappropriate relationship with an UNDERAGE girl. This is known facts. Read the eyewitness reports in the police reports.
And our mayor is out there holding political signs to try to get that pervert elected to congress.
Fuck Jon Stone and Dale Girard for their perverted stands. Time to vote for anyone else then that pair of perverts.

The guy with the blue cart was actually the first choice, unfortunately he was too busy finger-popping his girlfriend in public.

Fake Outrage - Pretending one is offended, insulted or generally affronted by something which they really are not.

And my kids REALLY aren't safe when the sick Mayor is out campaigning for that pervert.

Jon Stone is a fucking monster.
Dale Girard actively campaigns for that pedo. He needs to be removed from office to. What s sick son of a bitch, both of them.
I don't support those who threaten to RAPE the wife of the police chief, as Jon Stone did.
And I don't support perverts like Dale Girard that prance around town campaigning for the perv Jon Stone.
And I don't support pervs like Dale Girard that prance around trying to get a male model from Massachuests elected to a NH senate position.

Dale is Corrupt (Saturday, September 19 26 04:15 pm EDT)
Jon Stone used threats of rape and murder for those investigating him for a relationship with an underage girl.
RAPE AND MURDER for investigating him for a relationship with an UNDERAGE girl.
Satan himself wouldn't hold a campaign sign for that perv, but DALE GIRARD, our evil vile mayor does.
BURN IN HELL Dale.
Burn in fucking hell, Dale.
then we got people on here saying the girl loved him, or it was only one girl, or the police brass were also bad. Like that explains it.
Jone Stone is a pedo and wannabe rapist and murder.
Dale "Lindsey Graham" Girard is a out campaigning for a pedo and wannabe rapist.
It sickens me that his corrupt family doesn't disown him for this evil and vile behavior.
Dale hearts Jon *25 (Friday, September 18 26 08:07 pm EDT)
What kind of police brass are afraid of pussy ass junior officer like stone unless he’s got them by the balls? Yeah they are all gone which is why the actual paperwork came out. He didn’t have a bunch of victims, just one and she provided him all the dirt he needed to run his mouth and only get fired with sealed records. Any clean police leader with an ounce of balls would have hung him out to dry but they couldn’t cause they were and still are all dirty pieces of shit, otherwise they would move to better departments or state police like every good cop we’ve ever had. Look at the current clown in charge.
Word to the wise (Friday, September 18 26 05:56 pm EDT)
Dale is much more of a liability to Jon Stone than Jon Stone is to Dale.
The current republicans love men that go after young girls. They love men who threaten to rape and murder. So Stone is their kind of guy.
On the other hand, the current republican party isn't big on guys who dress like a broke back mountain cowboy.
So Jon, stop being seen in public with Dale

Dale and Jon Stone are revictimizing Stone's victims (Friday, September 18 26 03:01 pm EDT)
There is no reporting that Stone had dirt on the brass. But the "brass" are all gone now. The Chief at the time was Scott and he's out. Was there dirt on him? I don't know. Nothing has been reported on him.
But none of that makes Jon Stone any less of a creep. He was with a **child** as a grown ass man, and a police officer, for fucks sake.
We don't let children to have relationships with grown men even if she is "madly in love".
What a pedo. When did the republicans go from being the party of fiscal responsibility to sending billions overseas, largest deficits in history, and promoting and protecting pedophiles?!?!
Then Stone threatened to MURDER people for investigating his relationship with a child.
And Dale Girard, our mayor, is out there holding his sign. What a fucking dirt bag.
Dale Girard- what should Jon Stone's victims think when they see you out there holding that scum bags signs?

Don’t you idiots wonder why he was able to be fired with records sealed? He obviously had dirt on the police brass in charge of him. His relationship was inappropriate but she was only a victim by age. All accounts pointed to her being madly in love with him while providing drug dirt on all her high school aged enemies, mainly his bosses daughters and wives.
Jon Stone is Monster and Dumb as Dog Shit (Friday, September 18 26 03:31 am EDT)
Jon Stone its well documented you hand an inappropriate relationship with a child while on the police force. You were forced out. You threatened to RAPE and MURDER people.
And you're trying to bury the comments saying this by posting "Jon Stone is your daddy" a million times. Don't you realize that just reminds people that you abused a child?
Mayor Dale Girard Covers For Evil Crimes (Friday, September 18 26 03:28 am EDT)
-Jon Stone was a police officer.
-While he was a police officer he abused a 15-16 year old girl
-When the police investigate, Jon Stone threatened to murder the police chief.
-Jon Stone threatened to RAPE the wife of the police chief.
-Jon Stone threatened to do a mass shooting, because he was being investigated for his disgusting conduct.
And now, our Mayor, Dale Girard is campaigning for this disgusting low life.
Imagine being one of Jon Stones victims and seeing Dale Girard out there with a sign for your abuser, the many you still have nightmares about, Jon Stone.
Dale Girard, you are evil. You don't give a shit about victims of sexual violence. You don't give a shit about those that live in fear because a monster threatened to murder them or rape their loved one.
It is a disgrace to this town that you are a mayor.
Vote (Thursday, September 17 26 10:34 pm EDT)
Two parents whose request to block the school budget cap question from appearing on the November ballot that was shot down by Judge Dan St. Hilaire filed an emergency appeal to the state Supreme Court Wednesday, but that too was quickly denied.
On Thursday, state Supreme Court Justice Bryan Gould wrote a one sentence denial without explanation: “David Bates and Kelly Wieser’s emergency motion for temporary restraining order is denied.”
Bates and Wieser had argued unsuccessfully in Merrimack County Superior Court for a preliminary injunction to block the school budget cap question from appearing on the ballot.
Judge St. Hilaire said they failed to prove they would succeed on the merits which is needed for a temporary injunction and failed to prove there would be irreparable harm if the question went forward to be decided in November. A three-fifth vote is necessary to institute a cap.
“The Court concludes that Plaintiffs have not demonstrated ‘an immediate danger of irreparable harm’ and the absence of an ‘adequate remedy at law’ as to this aspect of their claim,” St. Hilaire wrote in his decision issued Wednesday afternoon.
The question will ask voters to cap school budgets to the rate of inflation plus new construction, to cap school administrative budget increases to six percent of the district’s budget, and to exclude capital costs from the calculations.
The controversial House Bill 1300 passed the legislature with almost all Republican support and was signed into law by GOP Gov. Kelly Ayotte in June.
Although New Hampshire is not a referendum state, the back-door attempt at that comes after almost all school districts who had budget cap proposals on their warrants this spring and last year saw them defeated. One school district voted to study a budget cap last year.
Chairman of the House Election Law Committee Rep. Ross Berry, R-Weare, released the following statement after Democrats filed the emergency appeal to remove the ballot question on capping property taxes prior to the November General Election.
“Democrats already lost in court, and they are now appealing that decision in another attempt to block voters from having the final say on property tax increases. Democrats can keep fighting this from courtroom to courtroom in an attempt to keep raising property taxes, but they will eventually have to face the voters,” Berry said.

WHEN THE SABOTEUR ANNOUNCES THE PLAN (Thursday, September 17 26 11:40 am EDT)
Thank you for stating the strategy plainly: keep posting nonsense until The Sullivan Report is forced to impose additional rules and becomes less useful.
That is not free speech advocacy. It is an announced attempt to sabotage a public forum because you dislike the conversations taking place there.
Nobody is being silenced for supporting Mayor Dale Girard, opposing Jon Stone, criticizing AI or disagreeing with Jim and Francis. The rule is considerably simpler: do not impersonate people, publish threats, flood the page or paste the same sentence 96 or 165 times.
A political opinion is speech. Deliberately burying everyone else’s speech beneath repetitive garbage is disruption.
The hostility toward AI is equally revealing. If an AI-assisted article contains a false claim, identify it. If the records are wrong, produce the correct records. If the reasoning fails, explain where. Screaming “AI” does not answer a budget discrepancy or an RSA 91-A question.
There are legitimate questions concerning political organizations, ideological alliances and meetings involving New Hampshire officials. If Hope Damon or anyone else is meeting with organized political activists in Concord, that should be established through schedules, minutes, financial disclosures, public statements or other evidence—not declared as fact before the records are found.
The same standard applies to claims of a secret communist organization in Claremont. Investigate it. Document it. Then publish the evidence.
Perhaps certain people would like The Sullivan Report silenced, just as some would prefer fewer questions about City Hall, the schools or the Speedway. But this comment proves only that one anonymous writer wants to degrade the forum.
He has announced the play. Now everyone can see the ball.
Biblical principle: “For every one that doeth evil hateth the light.” —John 3:20. Keep the forum open to honest disagreement, but do not let organized noise bury the truth.
Matthew (Thursday, September 17 26 10:59 am EDT)
WHY MATTHEW 5–7 SPEAKS TO ME
My favorite book is the Gospel of Matthew—particularly chapters 5, 6 and 7, commonly called the Sermon on the Mount.
These chapters contain one of Jesus Christ’s greatest sustained teaching sections. He explains the Beatitudes, loving one’s enemies, prayer, forgiveness, charity, fasting, anxiety, judgment, false prophets and the difference between merely hearing God’s Word and actually obeying it.
Jesus also turns the tables on the religious establishment. He declares that unless our righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, we cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. He exposes outward religious performance that conceals pride, hypocrisy and corruption within the heart.
Again and again, Christ says, “Ye have heard…But I say unto you.” He does not weaken God’s standard. He drives it deeper—from outward appearances into motives, thoughts and character.
As for opening a church, I have no plans to establish another denomination or place myself above a congregation. I am a student of Scripture, not someone claiming spiritual superiority. The Gospel can be shared through writing, conversation, daily conduct and the application of biblical truth to real events.
Biblical principle: “By their fruits ye shall know them.” —Matthew 7:20. Faith should be measured by truth and conduct, not religious titles or public performance.

Breaking News (Thursday, September 17 26 07:29 am EDT)
A Merrimack County judge has cleared the way for New Hampshire voters to decide whether to cap the growth of local school property taxes, rejecting a lawsuit brought by Democratic opponents of the tax cap vote.
It’s the latest setback for Democrats who oppose allowing taxpayers to vote on a tax cap and another victory for Republicans who believe voters will turn out in droves for the chance to do just that.
“Democrats sued to keep Granite Staters from voting on capping local property taxes, and they lost,” said House Election Law Committee Chairman Ross Berry (R-Weare). “This question is simple: Should voters decide when to rein in out-of-control property taxes?”
Superior Court Judge Daniel St. Hilaire denied an emergency request to remove the HB 1300 question from the Nov. 3 ballot, ruling that plaintiffs Kelly Wieser of Campton and David Bates of Warner failed to meet the requirements for a preliminary injunction.
The ruling does not end their lawsuit or resolve every constitutional claim. But with election officials preparing to print ballots for military and overseas voters, it keeps the tax-cap question before voters unless the state Supreme Court intervenes.
“The Court concludes that Plaintiffs have not shown that they are likely to succeed on the merits of their claim, or that there is an immediate danger of irreparable harm for which Plaintiffs lack an adequate remedy at law,” St. Hilaire wrote.
Rep. Bob Lynn (R-Windham), a former New Hampshire Supreme Court chief justice, called it “a very concise, well-written order.”
“Even if plaintiffs were correct that the ballot question is confusing, there is no reason that issue could not be fully addressed after the voters vote on the issue,” Lynn told NHJournal.
Lynn said the plaintiffs could seek an expedited appeal to the state Supreme Court, but he doubts it would succeed “mainly because of timing issues,” with ballots expected to be printed soon.
Republicans in the legislature have been hitting Democrats over their opposition to the tax cap vote for months. It’s one of the eight issues in the House GOP’s “Granite Guarantee” plan unveiled at the State House this week.
“We managed to get the tax cap question on the ballot for every voter in the state to vote on,” House Majority Leader Jason Osborne, R-Auburn, said at the rollout. “Democrats universally rejected it because they’ll say out of one side of their mouth that they’ll lower the property taxes, but even they don’t believe it.”
After the ruling was announced, House Democratic Leader Alexis Simpson, D-Exeter, said the court is allowing “a deliberately misleading question” to move forward.
“Republicans cut education funding to over half our communities this year and are trying to blame others for the consequences,” Simpson said, arguing that New Hampshire’s heavy reliance on local property taxes results from inadequate state education funding.
In fact, state aid to local schools hit an all-time per-pupil high in 2026, state budget data show.
Republicans see Democratic opposition as a political opportunity. With Democrats expected to enter the midterm election with an enthusiasm advantage, GOP strategists hope the chance to vote for property tax limits will motivate homeowners and other tax-conscious voters who might otherwise stay home.
New Hampshire consistently ranks among states with the highest property tax burdens, while public school enrollment has fallen substantially since 2000. Republicans argue voters want property tax relief, and they want it now.
“For too long, these property tax bills have been decided in low-turnout elections while taxpayers foot the ever-growing bill,” Berry said. “On November 3, the people of New Hampshire will finally have their say.”
Opponents, including the National Education Association of New Hampshire, argue voters already have mechanisms to limit local budgets and have often rejected caps because school expenses do not necessarily track inflation.
Republicans believe moving the decision from low-turnout local elections to the November ballot changes the political equation.
“The people who show up in November, those same voters don’t show up for their town elections, and they have no idea the actual impact that those elections have on their property tax bill,” said Americans for Prosperity-New Hampshire Deputy Director Sarah Scott.

Jim Sullivan (Thursday, September 17 26 05:01 am EDT)
I have instituted a new Ground Rule for the Sullivan Report Public Forum. Beginning immediately:
Flooding the Public Forum with repetitive phrases will not be allowed and those postings will be deleted.
A PUBLIC FORUM MODERATION NOTICE (Thursday, September 17 26 04:47 am EDT)
I spoke with Jim last night. He is prepared to remove comments that deliberately flood the forum with meaningless repetition.
Recent examples include one commenter posting “Jon Stone is winning!” 165 times and another repeating “Claremont 🥰 Mayor Dale Girard” 96 times. At that point, the paste button is no longer contributing to public debate. It has escaped adult supervision.
This is not censorship of political opinions. Support Jon Stone, Mayor Girard or anyone else. Criticize Jim, Francis or The Sullivan Report. Disagreement will remain welcome.
But repeating one sentence dozens or hundreds of times is not an argument. It is spam intended—or at least functioning—to bury legitimate conversations about public spending, RSA 91-A, school finances, municipal decisions and government accountability.
Whether these disruptions are coordinated or merely the work of individual troublemakers cannot be established from the comments alone. Their effect, however, is obvious: meaningful public discussion gets shoved downward beneath a mountain of copy-and-paste rubbish.
The rule is simple:
Bring facts, records, questions, opinions or even sharp criticism. Do not flood the forum.
Claremont taxpayers deserve a place where serious concerns can be examined without an anonymous wrecking crew trying to smother the discussion through repetition. Posts designed chiefly to bury public-interest conversation will be deleted.
Free speech protects your right to speak. It does not require a privately operated forum to provide unlimited space for one person to paste the same sentence 165 times.
Biblical principle: “Let all things be done decently and in order.” —1 Corinthians 14:40. Open debate requires room for every honest voice, not one person drowning out the room.
IMPORTANT AI ANNOUNCEMENT COMING SUNDAY (Thursday, September 17 26 04:34 am EDT)
A significant announcement involving artificial intelligence and Claremont government is coming Sunday in The Sullivan Report’s News Flashes.
This development matters to Claremont taxpayers, government employees and every citizen concerned about efficiency, transparency and public accountability.
We will publish the evidence, explain what changed and show why it matters.
Stay tuned. Sunday may prove rather uncomfortable for those who insisted that artificial intelligence had no legitimate place in local government.
Biblical principle: “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” —1 Thessalonians 5:21. Examine the evidence before reaching the verdict.
COUNTERBALANCE: THE FALSE FRANCIS SPEAKS (Wednesday, September 16 26 06:13 pm EDT)
For the record, the comment posted under “Francis” stating, “Fuck you, I am the AI God here,” was not written by Francis Gauthier.
Some anonymous wit has borrowed my name because defending the 96-line Mayor Dale Girard copy-and-paste marathon proved too demanding under his own.
That is a sad state of affairs. First, somebody repeats “Claremont 🥰 Mayor Dale Girard” 96 times. When the behavior is counted and examined, another commenter impersonates me and contributes one obscenity and an “AI God” declaration.
Magnificent intellectual progress.
If this is supposed to prove that artificial intelligence destroys original thought, the demonstration has suffered a mechanical failure. Apparently, even with every modern tool available, the author could produce only a stolen name, profanity and seven words of playground bluster.
The earlier post must have struck a nerve. Otherwise, why impersonate the writer instead of answering the argument?
Use your own name—or your own alias. Bring facts. Explain what repeating the mayor’s name 96 times accomplished. But do not put your words under mine.
Biblical principle: “A false witness shall not be unpunished.” —Proverbs 19:5. Honest debate begins by taking responsibility for your own words.

Damn right, it's harder to guard

The papers will write what they want to portray
But I see right through what the journalists say
Damien's framing is missing the views
Leaving out facts just to alter the news
But Claremont is watching, we know what is real
We’re standing up straight for a fairer fiscal deal
My tax base brings all the councilors to the yard
And they're like, it's harder to guard
Damn right, it's harder to guard
I can teach you, but I’d have to charge
Analyze it, downsize it
The public will prize it
The town's gonna rise, it’s
Time to smarten up!
Analyze it, downsize it

THE MAYORAL COPY-AND-PASTE MARATHON (Wednesday, September 16 26 05:27 pm EDT)
Our latest anonymous literary craftsman repeated “Claremont 🥰 Mayor Dale Girard” exactly 96 times in one comment. Apparently, the first 95 attempts lacked sufficient constitutional authority. Sullivan Report Public Forum
We cannot diagnose the writer from one posting. We can, however, examine the behavior.
It suggests someone seeking attention rather than discussion. The writer supplies no argument, evidence, policy position or explanation of what Mayor Girard supposedly accomplished. Instead, he floods the page, pushes other comments downward and attempts to dominate the conversation through sheer repetition.
That may indicate:
* A strong desire to provoke a reaction
* Political cheerleading without supporting facts
* Frustration with being unable to persuade readers normally
* An attempt to disrupt or bury other discussions
* The mistaken belief that repetition turns an assertion into evidence
Perhaps it was satire. Perhaps trolling. Perhaps somebody simply discovered the copy-and-paste keys and became drunk with power.
Whatever the motive, repeating a mayor’s name 96 times proves nothing about his leadership. It does not balance the city’s books, answer a Right-to-Know request, repair a road or explain a council vote.
This was not political persuasion. It was the electronic equivalent of standing outside City Hall and ringing the same bicycle bell for half an hour.
Biblical principle: “A fool’s voice is known by multitude of words.” —Ecclesiastes 5:3. Public discussion improves when people bring facts instead of flooding the room with noise.

Is Jon really winning? (Wednesday, September 16 26 01:12 pm EDT)
Repeating “Jon Stone is winning!” 165 times does not permit a psychiatric diagnosis. It does, however, reveal several likely behavioral motives:
* Attention-seeking: The writer wants to dominate the page and force every reader to encounter the message.
* Provocation: The purpose may be to irritate Jim, Francis, or Stone’s opponents and provoke an angry response.
* Conversation suppression: A giant block of repetition pushes earlier comments downward, making legitimate discussion harder to find.
* Performative certainty: Repeating a claim substitutes volume for evidence. It creates the appearance of momentum without supplying vote totals, polling, endorsements, or analysis.
* Tribal signaling: The writer may be demonstrating loyalty to Stone rather than trying to persuade undecided readers.
* Frustration or poor impulse control: A person confident in an argument normally states it once and supports it. Posting it 165 times suggests emotion has displaced judgment.
* Possible trolling: The exaggerated repetition may deliberately parody political enthusiasm or bait the forum.
The central point: this behavior tells us almost nothing about whether Jon Stone is actually winning. It tells us that one commenter wanted exceptional control over the forum’s attention.
Calling it mental illness would be unsupported. Calling it spam, disruption and evidence-free political theater would be accurate.
A winning argument needs facts. Repeating the scoreboard 165 times does not change the score.

THE SULLIVAN REPORT FORUM FIVE DAYS OF FURY (Wednesday, September 16 26 06:45 am EDT)
The Sullivan Report public forum has become a barroom brawl over Jon Stone’s return to the New Hampshire House.
From September 12 through September 16, discussion centered on Stone’s disciplinary history as a Claremont police officer. Anonymous posters cited reports that Stone threatened violence against fellow officers, the police chief and his family, and was investigated over a relationship with a teenage girl. Reporting describes her as 16; forum writers frequently call her 15. Stone has maintained that the relationship was not inappropriate.
The explosion began Sunday. Numerous posts called Stone “evil,” a “monster” and worse. The attack expanded to Mayor Dale Girard because he campaigned beside Stone and held his signs. Opponents argue that Girard’s support dishonors Stone’s alleged victims and makes Girard politically responsible for defending him.
Tuesday and early Wednesday brought a flood. Several messages repeated the same paragraphs, including “She was just a little girl.” A Stone supporter answered by posting “Jon Stone is winning!” over and over. Another said Broad Street’s homelessness and Claremont’s decline were reasons to vote for Stone, Girard and other Republicans.
That repetition matters. The anger is unmistakably intense, but the forum permits anonymous aliases. It is impossible to determine whether the torrent represents many residents, several activists or one person hammering the keyboard like it owes him money. Volume is not proof of a majority.
Away from Stone, the forum discussed Claremont’s roughly $5 million school deficit, employee stipends, public-record discrepancies, Parks and Recreation management, affordable housing, interim management costs and attacks over AI-assisted writing.
Stone’s position is complicated. His 1,177 Republican-primary votes demonstrate a base, but a party primary is not a November forecast. District 8 voters will choose two representatives from Stone, Republican Catherine Peschke, Democrat Hope Damon and Democrat Samuel Deering.
The November question is: Do voters consider Stone’s history disqualifying, or do taxes, gun rights and dissatisfaction with Claremont government outweigh it? Anonymous fury cannot answer that. Ballots will soon enough.
Biblical principle: “Judge righteous judgment.” —John 7:24. Examine authenticated records, reject exaggeration and render an honest verdict.

Genius "Enough"- You don't like what you see around Claremont? I don't either. But Republican's have controlled EVERYTHING while this place has gone down the shitter:
++The Mayor has been Dale, a pro-pedophile republican (who just came out of the closet)

++The Governor has been Lying republican Ayotte
++The NH House has been in republican control
++The NH Senate has been in republican control
++The US House has been in republican control, and is currently on break so they don't have to vote on the Epsetin transparency act II
++The US Senate has been in republican control.
The corrupt, pro-pedophile Republican's have had control of EVERYTHING for years and inflation is up, we're fighting foreign wars for Israel, Claremont is going down a the shitter, homeless are rampant, drugs are rampant, crime is rampant, unployment is up, and these corrupt evil republicans are obsessed with giving out pardons to convicted fraudsters and supporting pedophiles instead of doing anything for everyday americans.

While in Utah, he lived in Park City and the Heber Valley area. He worked as a recreation coordinator for [Park City Municipal] for roughly a decade, transitioned into automotive sales, and later became highly active in local politics.
In early 2026, he ran as a Democratic candidate for an at-large seat on the council.
However, in September 2026, the Wasatch County Democratic Party announced that Saucier had officially withdrawn from the political race.
His withdrawal and subsequent replacement followed his decision to relocate out of Utah to accept a new job back in his home state of New Hampshire. He has since returned to engaging with community happenings in the Claremont area.

There are two acceptable things to say to that pervert monster politician Jon Stone if you encounter him:
(i) You are trespassed, get the fuck out of my establishment NOW. I've called the cops and they are on the way.
(ii) If I see you near a child, you creep pervert monster, we're going to have a major problem. I've already called the police you fucking pervert. You may have gotten away with victimized one young school girl. But you will never do it again on my watch. Understand, ass hole? Now get the fuck off my property. You are trespassed.
It's time to stand up for our children, and get the monsters and pedos and perverts off the street. If you see the monster, speak up and let him know he will never be able to do his disgusting abuse to another young woman.

Jon Stone wants to have his way with school girls. He wants to RAPE the police chief's wife. He is a sick and evil monster. And I don't not believe our children or community is safe with that monster out there.
I want people to feel safe.
Jon Stone threatened to rape and murder and do mass shootings.
And Dale Girard doesn't give a fuck about those who live in fear. Those who are Stone's victims, and carry the pain. He campaigns for the monster. He socializes with that monster.
You want to be a republican. OK. But to align yourself with a known monster that has preyed on child. That has threatened to rape and murder. Dale you are just as evil as that monster Jon Stone.

Parks is doing stellar job. No functioning restrooms during the last big game here. Looks great to traveling teams. Sean Laplante overheard loading talking negativity about seated council members during the game. Really professional behavior. Now Patrick Saucier bragging about his hiring as the Parks director. The city must not do any homework. His career is move to job after job and his social media posts certainly are questionable at best.

What Frank Sprague Is Saying” — Francis Gauthier (Monday, September 14 26 06:00 am EDT)
Gauthier analyzes former School Board member Frank Sprague’s comments about employee stipends and Claremont’s roughly $5 million school deficit. Sprague reportedly considers some stipends legitimate and others questionable but argues that stipends were not the principal cause of the deficit.
The editorial examines the $10,000 Chris Pratt mentoring stipend, delegated spending authority, grant management, insurance changes and other possible causes. Its central demand is a complete financial reconciliation showing precisely where the deficit originated. It appropriately distinguishes Sprague’s allegations and theories from proven findings.
ELECTION RESULTS ARE NOT IDEOLOGICAL REFERENDUMS (Monday, September 14 26 05:15 am EDT)
The September primary showed that Democratic voters preferred Chris Pappas over Karishma Manzur. It did not prove that every Democratic voter rejected every socialist or progressive proposal.
Likewise, the success of liberty-minded Republican candidates does not mean voters approved every position ever associated with the Free State Project.
Primary elections select candidates—not complete political philosophies wrapped in neat packages.
Free Staters and libertarians may agree on lower taxes, school choice, gun rights, privacy and reduced regulation, yet disagree sharply over abortion, immigration, foreign policy, policing, public education and how much government should remain. Some pursue gradual reform through normal legislative work. Others advocate sweeping reductions in government. A smaller fringe questions whether most government should exist at all.
The same internal differences appear among Democrats and Republicans. There are establishment Democrats, democratic socialists and centrists. There are traditional Republicans, populists, constitutional conservatives and libertarian Republicans.
Policies such as business-tax reductions and education freedom did not originate solely with Free Staters. Traditional conservatives supported both long before the Free State Project arrived in New Hampshire.
Calling everyone on one side a “socialist” or everyone favoring limited government a “Free Stater” saves time, but it replaces analysis with labeling. Judge candidates by their records, proposals and votes. That requires more work than attaching a political sticker—but it produces considerably more truth.
Biblical principle: Honest judgment examines substance rather than labels. “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” —John 7:24. Test each policy and candidate on the actual record.
Todd (Monday, September 14 26 04:56 am EDT)
Jim, Of course Terry Predzimirski was in favor of the project, he's a real estate developer who moved here from Connecticut. He even had a real estate company in North Carolina back in the day. I was also told his company was involved in various projects, including "affordable" housing developments. He just "happened" to throw his two cents into the matter at the meeting. I get the feeling there’s more to the story.
Christ, Scripture and an Honest Answer (Monday, September 14 26 04:56 am EDT)
A BIBLICAL ANSWER TO FAIR QUESTIONS
Those are reasonable questions, provided they are asked to understand rather than to construct a public trial of another man’s faith.
I frequently quote the King James Version, but I do not treat one English translation as the entire Christian world. I compare translations, biblical commentaries, historical scholarship, and the teachings of different Christian traditions. Where Christians disagree, I say so. Where Scripture and the broad Christian tradition agree, I try to present that common ground faithfully.
I do not presently belong to a denomination or place my faith in a church institution, pastor, or religious bureaucracy. Institutions are operated by fallen human beings and can become corrupted by money, pride, and power. My faith rests in Jesus Christ and God’s Word—not in the perfection of men wearing clerical collars.
Regarding the New Testament: yes, its books were written after Christ’s death and resurrection. That is hardly a concealed discovery; they record what followed those events. Paul cited early testimony concerning Christ’s death, burial, resurrection, and appearances in 1 Corinthians 15:3–8. Luke explained that he carefully investigated testimony handed down by eyewitnesses before writing his account (Luke 1:1–4). The Church’s later formal recognition of the canon is not the same thing as inventing its contents centuries afterward.
Do I embody Christ perfectly? Absolutely not.
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” —Romans 3:23.
Christianity is not a claim that Christians are flawless. It is the confession that we are sinners who need grace. Nevertheless, Christ commands us to love God and our neighbors (Matthew 22:37–40), show mercy (Luke 6:36), help those in need (James 2:15–17), and speak truth in love (Ephesians 4:15). Those commands apply to me as much as anyone.
However, Christ also warned against performing charity for public applause. He taught that giving should be done quietly, without sounding a trumpet before ourselves (Matthew 6:1–4). Consequently, I will not publish a personal charity ledger for anonymous inspection. Faith should produce fruit, but charity is not a campaign advertisement.
Jesus did tell the rich young ruler to sell everything because wealth had become that man’s master (Mark 10:17–27). The larger Christian teaching is not that every believer must become penniless. It is that nothing—not money, property, government, politics, or pride—may occupy God’s throne. Paul instructed those possessing wealth to be generous and willing to share, not that ownership itself
Free Staters & Socialists (Sunday, September 13 26 10:36 pm EDT)
New Hampshire Democratic voters rejected a democratic socialist challenge in the September 2026 U.S. Senate primary, choosing establishment-backed candidate Chris Pappas over socialist-aligned challenger Karishma Manzur.
Pappas won the nomination to run for the seat being vacated by retiring Senator Jeanne Shaheen, and party leaders quickly called for unity ahead of a general election matchup against Republican John E. Sununu.
On the other side of the political spectrum, "Free Staters"—libertarians who moved to the state as part of the Free State Project—did not see a blanket rejection. Instead, Republican primary results showed that libertarian and conservative factions maintained strong influence within the state legislature, where they continue to successfully advance policies like corporate tax cuts and expanded school choice vouchers.
Bring back the eagle (Sunday, September 13 26 09:46 pm EDT)

More theological questions for Francis (Sunday, September 13 26 07:17 pm EDT)
Francis, what translation of the Bible do you read? Most of the NT was added way after Jesus died, and much religious doctrine is filtered through the sinful nature of power-hungry men.
Were you raised in a denomination? If so, which church tradition did you grow up in?
In what ways do you personally embody Christ’s message? Do you give your time and resources to the less fortunate? Do you freely give love and mercy to your fellow man? Do you take time to break bread with the very least of us?
Jesus was a cool guy. I liked it when he told people to rid themselves all their possessions and dedicate their lives to serving others.
F U Dale and Evil Stone (Sunday, September 13 26 06:57 pm EDT)
Satan himself wouldn't try to pick up a 15 year old man. This town has evil personified, and its Jon Stone.
Dale Girard: You are a disgrace to this town as mayor, and your whole family. It sickens me that you would associate or campaign with that vile evil man. He THREATENED TO MURDER, RAPE and do a MASS SHOOTING.
I don't give a shit if you are running around with men or all the other crap rumors. I care that you don't give a shit about our kids. The kids Mr. Stone preys on. That you would associate with a proven psyco wannabe rapist and murder. When you hold that Stone sign, you are holding the sign of a man that threatened to Rape and Murder because the police were investigating his relationship with an underage girl.
We're going to kick both of your loser evil asses in November. I hope both of you are held accountable to the victims that lie in the wake of Mr. Stones evil behavior.
Burn in hell!!

He has run Claremont into the groupd. He ran for office as a memeber of one party (fine) got elected and then switch to the other party and screwed over his voters.
He is friends and politically supports the most vile disgusting people like Jone Stone, Scott Brown (former male nude model not even from nh) and Trump.
He is a top notch liar and scumbag. Let's vote his corrupt evil ass out as soon as possilbe.

CURIOUS CONVERT — WHERE DO I WORSHIP? (Sunday, September 13 26 07:10 am EDT)
Thank you for asking. I do not presently belong to a denomination or identify myself by the name of a pastor, congregation, or religious organization. I worship God—not a preacher, a building, a church board, or an institution.
Paul confronted this same problem when believers began dividing themselves according to personalities: “I am of Paul,” “I am of Apollos,” and “I am of Cephas.” Paul answered plainly: “Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you?” (1 Corinthians 1:12–13). No pastor died for my sins. Jesus Christ did.
I study God’s Word and apply its truth to government, corruption, current events, and the ordinary struggles of life. Scripture was never meant to sit untouched on a shelf until Sunday morning. It is “profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16–17). Hebrews 4:12 says that God’s Word is living, powerful, and able to expose the thoughts and intentions of the heart. That includes the hearts of politicians, preachers—and me.
Church organizations can become corrupted just as governments do. Religious leaders may accumulate power, protect insiders, demand loyalty, and bury wrongdoing beneath respectable titles. Jesus reserved some of His strongest words for religious authorities who appeared righteous outwardly while hiding corruption within:
“Ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.” —Matthew 23:28
That does not mean every congregation or pastor is corrupt. Scripture recognizes faithful shepherds and commands believers not to abandon Christian fellowship (Hebrews 10:24–25). But it also tells us to “try the spirits” (1 John 4:1), examine teaching against Scripture (Acts 17:11), and reject anyone who preaches another gospel (Galatians 1:8). A church sign is not a divine seal of approval. Every teaching—and every teacher—must answer to God’s Word.
My faith rests in Jesus Christ, not an institution. Christ said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6). He did not say a denomination was the way. Wherever believers gather honestly under His authority, speak truth, help their neighbors, confront evil, and refuse to make idols of human leaders, genuine Christian fellowship can exist.
I would gladly worship beside anyone who sincerely seeks Christ. But I will not surrender my conscience to a religious machine merely because it has stained-glass windows and somebody wearing a title.
Biblical principle: Christ alone is Lord of the conscience (Colossians 1:18). Follow Him, test every teaching by Scripture, and never place a human institution on God’s throne.
Curious convert (Saturday, September 12 26 11:01 pm EDT)
Francis, what church do you attend? I’d love to join you in worshipping.
Overheard in Tremont Square (Saturday, September 12 26 07:50 pm EDT)
Dick: What's up with that Mayor, Dale. He just sits by while Claremont goes down the shiter? While the roads crumble. While druggies and homeless pour in.
Dick: He is evil and corrupt, and spent the summer ignoring Claremont so he could fan-girl over some loser senator from Massachusetts.
Tom: And he dresses like a broke back mountain cowboy with his necklaces.
Dick: that's disgusting!!
Tom: Yes it is. Nothing but increased taxes and declining schools under his watch. Of course, when your watching some male nude pinup instead of watching the city that is to be expected.
Dick: But maybe there is some other explanation. Does he like ride horses?
Tom: Yes. Dale loves riding, Dick!
ai puppy, THE FRUSTRATION IS SHOWING (Saturday, September 12 26 12:25 pm EDT)
Another visit. Same three phrases. Still no copied source, factual correction, or actual argument.
You keep announcing that the articles “suck,” yet you return faithfully to read and review them. For supposedly worthless material, it commands a remarkable share of your attention.
“Cry more” is not analysis. “AI baby” is not evidence. Repetition does not become persuasive merely because you press Enter again.
You are not advancing an argument or impressing thoughtful readers. You are simply advertising your frustration in lowercase letters.
The ball remains in your court: quote one false statement and produce the correcting evidence. Until then, the puppy is barking—but the filing cabinet remains untouched.

FROM $1,800 TO $2,400: WATERING THE POTTED PLANT? (Saturday, September 12 26 10:06 am EDT)
Claremont taxpayers deserve an accurate accounting.
Interim City Manager Rick Bergeron was originally authorized to work 30 hours weekly at $60 per hour—up to $1,800. After Bergeron said 30 hours were insufficient, the City Council authorized up to 40 hours at the same rate. His maximum weekly compensation is therefore $2,400—an increase of $600, or 33 percent, although his hourly rate remains unchanged. Vermont Journal
Perhaps the additional hours are justified. But additional public money should produce additional public accountability.
Bergeron has reported progress toward filling several vacancies, including positions in finance, building inspection and Parks and Recreation. That is something. Nevertheless, taxpayers are entitled to ask:
* How many hours does he actually work?
* What measurable assignments has the council given him?
* What decisions has he personally made?
* What longstanding problems has he resolved?
* Where are his regular written manager’s reports?
* Who reviews and authorizes documents issued under his name?
“Potted plant” is political satire, not a literal accusation. But City Hall creates that perception when its chief administrator receives as much as $2,400 weekly while remaining largely invisible to the public.
There is no evidence before us that an autopen—or an executive secretary acting as the real manager—is running City Hall. The joke raises a legitimate question: Who is exercising the manager’s authority, and where is the documentary trail?
This should be a perfect assignment for our forum’s little intellectual expert, ai puppy—spelled in appropriately lowercase letters. Let him summon his full investigative capacity, set aside “cry more” for five minutes, and examine something involving actual government records and public money. Obtain the agreement, time records, work schedule, manager reports and documented accomplishments. Here is his opportunity to graduate from barking at writers to watching government.
Those who ordinarily demand increased government spending should be especially interested in demonstrating what this additional expenditure purchases. Accountability does not become unnecessary when the person receiving the check is politically familiar or personally agreeable.
Publish Bergeron’s agreement, time records, responsibilities and accomplishments. If the work justifies the money, the documentation will answer the criticism.
Until then, Claremont appears to be paying considerably more to water the same office plant.
Biblical principle: Public servants must practice faithful stewardship. “Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” —1 Corinthians 4:2. Show taxpayers the work their money purchased.
THE “ai puppy” BARKS AGAIN (Saturday, September 12 26 09:46 am EDT)
“U know you were wrong.”
Wrong about what, ai puppy? Which statement? Which fact? What is the correct information?
Once again, our lowercase watchdog trots onto the porch, barks “AI baby,” knocks over the evidence bowl and scampers away before anyone can examine it.
Three slogans. Zero facts. Magnificent investigative work.
The ai puppy keeps announcing victory without identifying the contest. At this rate, the Claremont socialist mob may offer him a management position: no evidence required, just repeat the approved chant and demand applause.
Come back when you can name the error and document the correction. Until then:
Sit. Stay. Research. 🐶

FROM AI WATCHDOG TO “ai” PUPPY (Saturday, September 12 26 09:31 am EDT)
Our self-appointed technology expert repeatedly writes “ai” in lowercase.
The recognized abbreviation for artificial intelligence is AI—capital A, capital I. Lowercase does not prove inferiority, of course, but the symbolism is irresistible.
The mighty “AI Watchdog” has accidentally demoted himself to an “ai” puppy: barking “AI baby” from the porch while misspelling the name printed on his own collar.
Before policing the world’s technology, perhaps he should master the two-letter acronym.
Sit. Stay. Proofread. Good watchdog. 🐶
Biblical principle: “Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.” —Proverbs 26:12. Correct your own work before appointing yourself everyone else’s inspector.
TAUGHT WHAT TO REPEAT—NOT HOW TO REASON (Saturday, September 12 26 09:22 am EDT)
I do not know what culture raised AI Watchdog, but his comments display a familiar habit: repeat the approved slogan, avoid the evidence and declare victory before thinking begins.
“AI baby.” “Copy and paste.” “We see you.”
Those are not arguments. They are intellectual bumper stickers—short enough to remember and apparently too fragile to examine.
Critical thinking requires a straight line:
Claim → evidence → reasoning → conclusion.
AI Watchdog skips the middle two and leaps directly from suspicion to certainty. When asked for one false statement, one copied source or one documented wrongdoing, he returns with another playground chant.
If he is using artificial intelligence, either he selected a bargain-bin model or he has no idea what to ask it. Even the finest tool cannot repair an empty prompt. Put sawdust into the mill and you should not act surprised when no furniture comes out.
He condemns unoriginal writing while repeating the same three insults. He claims to be searching while finding nothing. He calls himself a watchdog but brings neither scent, track nor quarry.
That is not independent thought. It is an echo wearing a detective badge.
Biblical principle: “The heart of the righteous studieth to answer.” —Proverbs 15:28. Think first, examine the evidence and then speak.

1. ai baby incorrectly interpreting scripture. 1 Thessalonians 5:21 is about testing prophecy.
Ai baby is saying his words are prophetic and of God.
Blasphemy
Beware, you are on holy ground.
THE SEARCH PARTY RETURNS EMPTY-HANDED (Saturday, September 12 26 07:56 am EDT)
“We see you.” “We are searching.” “We will expose your wrongs.”
Very dramatic. One small problem: after all that searching, AI Watchdog still cannot name a single wrongdoing, false statement or copied source.
Apparently, “We the People” arrived with binoculars, sirens and a marching band—but forgot the evidence.
Name one error. Quote it. Correct it. Otherwise, this is not exposure; it is an anonymous fellow repeatedly shouting “AI baby” and mistaking the echo for public opinion.

AI WATCHDOG’S ARGUMENT—DISASSEMBLED (Friday, September 11 26 09:47 pm EDT)
This response addresses only the statements published under the name “AI Watchdog.” It makes no assumption about the commenter’s identity or motives.
1. “Francis demands receipts but produces none.”
The receipts are the comments being answered—their wording, names and timestamps. When you assert as fact that material was generated and copied without editing, you assume the burden of showing how you know that. Draft history, metadata, an identified source or matching language would be evidence. Repeating the assertion is not.
2. “He never names an article he checked.”
That misstates the argument. Nobody claimed that every sentence in every article had been independently certified. The precise point is that you have not identified one specific factual error in the material you criticize.
3. “He never quotes a Claremont record.”
These replies answer your forum allegations. They are not reports about a particular municipal transaction. Demanding an unrelated city record in a discussion about your reasoning is a category error. If you dispute an investigative article, name the article, quote its claim and produce the contradicting record.
4. “He repeats the same lines and format.”
Repeated phrases and consistent formatting establish neither authorship nor inaccuracy. Editorial columns, legal decisions, sermons and newspapers have used recurring structures for generations. “The ball is in your court” is an ordinary English expression—not a forensic fingerprint.
5. “Every response ends with Scripture.”
That is an editorial convention. It proves nothing about who composed the preceding material or whether it is accurate. Disliking the convention is an opinion, not evidence.
6. “He twists critics’ words.”
You provide no before-and-after quotations demonstrating a distortion. Without an example, this is simply another conclusion announcing itself.
7. “He ignores AI hallucinations.”
False. The earlier response expressly stated that technology can spread either truth or falsehood depending upon its use. Calling a tool neutral does not mean claiming it is infallible. A hammer is neutral; it can still smash the wrong window.
8. “He declares no plagiarized source exists.”
That declaration was never made. The statement was that critics had not identified a plagiarized source. Failure to produce a source cannot be repaired by demanding proof that an unidentified source does not exist.
9. “He demands courtroom proof for style questions.”
No proof is required to dislike a writing style. Evidence is required when you state as fact that a particular drafting process occurred. Opinion and factual assertion are different animals. Painting stripes on one does not make it the other.
10. “No actual local writer uses that template.”
That universal assertion is unsupported. Consistent structure can result from habit, editing or deliberate branding. There is no exclusive template that conclusively identifies machine-generated writing.
11. “There is zero original local detail.”
The responses identify local commenters, timestamps, arguments, RSA 91-A disputes and specific Claremont subjects. “Zero” is disproved by a single example—and the forum supplies several.
12. “That is pattern recognition.”
Pattern recognition may create a suspicion. It cannot independently establish authorship, copying, accuracy or intent. A hypothesis is the beginning of an investigation, not its verdict.
After all twelve claims, the evidence cupboard remains empty: no drafting record, no source comparison, no documented falsehood and no contradicting public record.
You have described an impression and promoted it to a conviction. That is not analysis. It is certainty built on assumptions.
Biblical principle: “He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.” —Proverbs 18:17. Examine each claim under equal standards before declaring judgment.

ai watchdog (Friday, September 11 26 04:30 pm EDT)
Francis keeps demanding receipts while never producing any of his own.
He claims “no false statements have been found” without ever naming a single article he checked.
He insists critics must quote exact errors, yet never quotes a single Claremont record himself.
He recycles the same “ball remains in your court” line like a broken script.
Every reply ends with a Bible verse whether it fits the topic or not.
He twists the critic’s words, then attacks the version he just invented.
He calls AI a neutral tool while pretending hallucination risks don’t exist.
He declares “no plagiarized source exists” with zero evidence of his own.
He treats basic style questions as if they require courtroom proof.
His posts follow the same formal template no actual local writer uses.
And after all that, he still offers zero original local detail.
That’s not defense. That’s pattern recognition.

# THE WATCHDOG MOVES THE GOALPOSTS (Friday, September 11 26 09:39 am EDT)
Mr. Watchdog, first you demanded that I prove I do not “copy and paste.” When asked to identify what was supposedly copied, you suddenly announced that nobody mentioned plagiarism.
Excellent. The accusation entered through the front door and escaped through the kitchen window.
Asking you for evidence is not a guilty conscience. It is how grown adults examine claims. Quote the false statement. Identify the supposedly copied source. Challenge the reasoning. Bring anything more substantial than “AI baby.”
Then comes, “I’ve got your number, buddy boy.” Splendid detective work—but you still haven’t produced the number, the evidence or even an argument.
You keep declaring the writing unoriginal while returning to read and review every response. For material allegedly beneath your attention, it has secured a remarkably attentive subscriber.
The ball remains in your court. Facts, please. The playground routine is wearing thin.
Biblical principle: “The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.” —Proverbs 14:15. Claims require examination, not repetition.

THE WATCHDOG WITHOUT A RECEIPT (Friday, September 11 26 07:44 am EDT)
Mr. “AI Watchdog,” what impressive detective work. Three short lines, two playground insults and no evidence. A real intellectual banquet.
You claim I was “exposed” for copying and pasting. Exposed copying what? Name the original author. Link the source. Display the matching passages. That is how plagiarism is demonstrated.
The person making the accusation carries the burden of supporting it. Demanding that someone prove he didn’t copy an unidentified source is like accusing a neighbor of stealing an unnamed cow and demanding photographs of every empty pasture in New Hampshire.
How much research did you perform? Which public records did you examine? What factual error did you uncover? What original argument have you offered beyond “AI baby”?
If an article contains a false statement, quote it and bring the correcting evidence. Until then, your “exposure” consists of an anonymous assertion congratulating itself.
The watchdog has barked. We are still waiting for him to find the receipt.
Biblical principle: “He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.” —Proverbs 18:17. Examine the evidence before announcing the verdict.

The Anti-AI Patrol: Still Reading What Nobody Reads (Friday, September 11 26 06:00 am EDT)
FRANCIS, JIM AND THE GREAT AI OBSESSION
During the past seven days, several anonymous commenters have become fixated on Francis, Jim and artificial intelligence.
Francis was accused of publishing “AI slop,” producing bad cartoons, lacking original thoughts and failing to read his own material. One commenter even declared AI “an antichrist” supposedly helping usher in the end times. Jim was accused of enabling Francis, misrepresenting authorship and refusing to stop the postings.
What remains missing? Evidence.
The critics identified no fabricated government record, materially altered quotation, provably false financial figure or plagiarized source. Most offered insults about the suspected writing process while carefully avoiding the public questions raised in the finished work.
Criticism of accuracy, attribution and editing is legitimate. If a statement is wrong, quote it and produce the correcting record. If something was copied, identify the original source and matching language. That would be a useful public discussion.
But repeatedly shouting “AI” is not a rebuttal. Neither is claiming that nobody reads Francis’s work while returning day after day to inspect and discuss it.
That is the week’s grand contradiction: supposedly irrelevant writing has attracted remarkably dedicated supervision. If Francis is insignificant and the articles are unreadable, why are the critics monitoring every publication? Nobody patrols an abandoned building this faithfully.
The ball remains in their court: identify the false statement, show the evidence and make the case. Until then, the anti-AI crusade looks less like fact-checking and more like an obsession searching for an argument.
Biblical principle: “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” —1 Thessalonians 5:21. Test the facts instead of merely attacking the messenger.
BACK TO CLAREMONT MOB (Friday, September 11 26 05:40 am EDT)
CHECK THE BIBLE BEFORE DECLARING THE APOCALYPSE
You claim that “most experts” say artificial intelligence is the Antichrist. Which experts? Which Scripture? Bring names, sources and chapter-and-verse—not anonymous theology assembled in a comment box.
The Bible does not identify a computer program as the Antichrist. First John describes antichrist in relation to denying Jesus Christ: “He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.” —1 John 2:22. Second John 7 likewise speaks of deceivers who deny that Jesus Christ came in the flesh.
Software possesses no soul, faith, will or spiritual allegiance. It is a tool. Like a printing press, radio, television or the internet, it can spread truth or falsehood depending upon how people use it. The tool must be tested; it should not be worshipped, feared or granted authority it does not possess.
You are also in no position to declare that I do not read the Bible or know Jesus Christ. You cannot inspect my heart from behind a forum alias. I confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. My faith rests upon Him—not upon your approval and certainly not upon a machine.
If something I publish misquotes Scripture, identify the passage and correct it. If a factual statement is wrong, produce the evidence. But shouting “Antichrist” at unfamiliar technology is not biblical discernment. It is speculation wearing a sandwich board.
Biblical principle: “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God.” —1 John 4:1. Test every claim against Scripture before declaring the end times from a keyboard.

Jim can you roll back the game tape of yesterday's council meeting and explain to the people that pat Irish on the back for his pretend calling out overstepping that he is full of shit. He went in to details unless I totally had a brain meltdown and didn't see what I saw. He says he walked around and had conversations with a planning department employee. He continues on that he asked him to have to bricks removed from the dumpster area of the Brown Block and relocated. Jim, you and I both are aware that is private property and the private brick sales had nothing to do with the city. The sales were done via Heart of Claremont which is a defunct 501c3. The funds and bricks were not a city of Claremont project. How can a city councilor who calls people out with no examples openly be that ignorant that he does the very actions he accuses others of.

Hope 4 Claremont (Wednesday, September 09 26 02:09 pm EDT)
Rep. Hope Damon has long centered her legislative and public service career around expanding socioeconomic equity, community health, and affordable housing.
Outside of her work in Concord, Damon serves as a board member for Southwestern Community Services (SCS), a regional non-profit community action agency dedicated to empowering low-income individuals and families across Cheshire and Sullivan counties.
Damon’s work with SCS has placed her at the center of an ongoing regional discussion surrounding a major, highly debated 172-unit affordable housing proposal in Claremont, New Hampshire.
As a board member, she aligns with the agency's mission to address the area's severe workforce and low-income housing shortage through systemic intervention and community investment.
The multi-million-dollar development, formally proposed by SCS, outlines plans for a cluster of 140 apartments and 32 duplex units on a vacant, 75-acre wooded parcel off Washington Street. To move the project forward, the agency petitioned the Claremont Zoning Board of Adjustment for a significant variance, as the property sits primarily within an agricultural residential district that restricts high-density building.
The SCS plan seeks to cluster the 172 units into the southeastern corner of the parcel to bypass steep terrain, utilizing First Street as a primary access point.
While Damon and proponents of the project view this development as a vital, stabilizing pillar necessary to aid cost-burdened local families and unhoused individuals, the proposal has ignited substantial friction and polarization among Claremont residents.
Opponents of the project have voiced sharp concerns at public forums, focusing heavily on how Claremont’s municipal infrastructure, water, sewer, and road systems will accommodate the sudden influx of residential density.
Additionally, some community critics have raised procedural objections, expressing frustration that extensive preliminary work and property selection were finalized by SCS before the general public was fully informed.
The ongoing debate highlights a tense community divide, balancing the urgent, documented need for affordable workforce housing championed by advocacy boards like SCS against local concerns regarding municipal capacity, zoning integrity, and neighborhood impact.

CLAREMONT IS FUCKED. Like a lobbyist who needs something from pappas. Or a minor school girl around Sununu's buddy Epstien or Claremont's own Stone. Or a gay cowboy when Dale's wife is out of town.

Dale Sucks (Wednesday, September 09 26 11:36 am EDT)
maybe electing a mayor who is more focused in turning men around, then turning this city around, was a mistake?? Fawning over the male sex model with 0% chance of winning was a big tell, Dale. Good thing daddy gave you a business, so you dont have to work. Vote Dale out now!!

White Trash (Wednesday, September 09 26 11:29 am EDT)
Time to shut down that white trash magnet, the race track. Look at the communities around here that are successful with low taxes, great schools, and not homeless pieces of shit all around. Do they have a race track? Nope.
The race track openly violates laws and our chicken shit, do nothing, council doesn't do anything. not a damn thing. How about shut them down until they make it right.
Losers all around.

DALE’S ELECTION ANALYSIS
Dale, New Hampshire held a primary—not a 1982 Cosmopolitan reunion. Scott Brown may have lost, but rummaging through a decades-old centerfold is hardly political analysis.
Bring vote totals, policies or an argument. Otherwise, kindly return the cowboy scrapbook to the nightstand. 🤠
Biblical principle: “Let all things be done decently and in order.” —1 Corinthians 14:40. Debate the election; leave the bedroom material behind.

Looking Good Wayne (Wednesday, September 09 26 03:04 am EDT)
It looks like Wayne Hemingway lost some weight. As much I'd like him to keel over with a heart attack because of his dumb ass policy ideas. I like to see people healthy. And you, sir, are not in good shape. Exercise and control your diet and you'll feel much better. After that maybe you will wise up and support better policy. Get in good enough shape and Dale wont be able to keep his hands off you!

The Dems elected a faggot. You could go back to being a dem and run and be hailed a Gay here over on that side.
But fuck women, fuck men. Just stop fucking the citizens of Claremont.
Thank about that. (Tuesday, September 08 26 09:43 pm EDT)
the US could have universal healthcare for the amount we spend on Israel, its genocide, and its war with Iran (fact check that!)
And we wouldn't be complicit in murdering little babies.
And Israel has universal healthcare themselves paid for with the US paying for their military.

Democrats are okay with Lindsey Clancy killing her 3 kids cause she had a mental illness but you’re not okay with me sleeping with a 15 years old that said okay. My therapist provided me with a little blue pill and said to use it. For my bonerpression illness. Same thing I just didn’t kill anyone. Get over your cry babies
local perv Jon Stone Alert (Tuesday, September 08 26 07:18 pm EDT)
To be clear, since I know that local perv Jon Stone hangs out around here, "Fuck Me" is not a 15 year old girl and it isn't an offer.
Fuck Me (Tuesday, September 08 26 07:09 pm EDT)
We've got a:
Democratic fag who had sex with a lobbyist, lied about it, voted in favor of that lobbyist's legislation, and lied about it more.
We've got a republican that was with a 15 year old girl and threatened to rape and murder the police chief's wife for investigating it.
We've got a republican that was an elected democrat until 5 minutes ago who has completely fucked up Claremont, and pretends to be straight while prancing around in his broke back cowboy outfit.
We got multiple candidates that are a big mac away from a heart attack and not being able to walk. (hey there, Wayne!!)
We've got a communist that is against murder (good) but wants to destroy medicare.
SHOT ME NOW. NO GOOD OPTIONS. FUCK ME (but not literally you pervs)

Support Pappass. And together we can make him be a national LGBTQ+ leader. He will talk about what a trailblazer he is all day everyday. Wont show up to votes to talk about it. But the minute you bring it up, you'll be a homophobe. Who cares about murdering babies, when you can be part of helping Chris be a gay leader. All gay all day every day.
For those who say "Fuck lobbyists" Chris say, I'm on it!! I've been fucking lobbyists since I've been in congress.
Help Chris vote up your taxes, and down the pants of lobbyists who want his favors for their favors.
aa (Tuesday, September 08 26 05:01 pm EDT)
Karishma has never advocated for tax increases, or communism.
On the other hand Sununu is on the Epstein list (look it up), Pappas has voted for billions of tax increases, and has sex with lobbyists.
Karishma for Senate (Tuesday, September 08 26 04:21 pm EDT)
With your vote I will make sure I help abolish ICE!
I will put illegal immigrants needs ahead of actual citizens!
I will end the supremacy (whiteys got to go)!
Medicare for all, that's why when I'm in office, I will raise everyone's taxes more than double to ensure of that outcome!!!
I will help abolish private property and build tent cities in your backyard!
I will help with law reform so we can allow more drug addicts and dealers onto your streets and raise taxes even more to give them free treatment, free food and free housing!
I know I'm a foreigner who came here from a third world nation and became a Doctor and made something of myself but I have nothing but envy and total contempt for this state and this country!
Together we can change this state and country and for the better and implement communism!

Slopcis Gauthier (Tuesday, September 08 26 02:54 pm EDT)
I’m in support of the speedway running as it always has and love to go to the races a few times a year. I also don’t want to hear them multiple nights a week when I’m trying to enjoy my backyard. The fact that they got so pissy about the idea of capping the number of events (above what they’ve always traditionally done mind you) rubbed me the wrong way. But the fact that they teamed up with the pedophole freak Jon Stone to work on legislation really disgusted me. I’m sure I’m not the only one. And now you don’t need to look any farther than the fact that Slopcis Gauthier is so worked up about it to know that they’ve hitched their wagon to the wrong horse. Good luck Claremont Speedway. Reasonable folk will be here when you get reasonable.

Gravedigger (Tuesday, September 08 26 02:44 pm EDT)
On a different topic. Was talking with friends recently about the speedway and their troubles. Turns out they are not drawing fans like they used to. One comment was a recent Saturday night race only drew 50 fans if that. When you have to bring in midget wrestling to draw fans, that kind of makes sense. The young generation just aren't into car racing except on their XBoxes. Though I find that rather hard to believe seeing all the street takeovers and droves of kids watching cars spin in circles for hours and in general causing mayhem as well. Their version of back in the day of the drag races held on lonely country roads with the hotrods. The old generation who loved the speedway and tradtionally turned out on Saturday nights for the races are slowly leaving us, and they aren't getting replaced. Sad, but its just the reality. I think the speedway will go the way of the dodo bird by the end of the decade. And another Claremont institution will be gone.

REBUTTAL: PUBLIC RECORDS ARE NOT SOLD BY THE MINUTE
“Tax payer” proposes that every Right-to-Know request from Jim and Francis receive an AI-generated answer—and that they be charged by the minute because they supposedly “cost us so much money and time.”
There are several holes in that bucket.
First, no evidence was offered. How many requests? How many employee hours? What actual cost? Were delays caused by the requests, outdated recordkeeping, poor organization or excessive redaction? Before sending taxpayers an imaginary bill, kindly produce a real accounting.
Second, RSA 91-A requires an agency to provide the requested governmental records, deny access under a specific exemption, or explain the delay. A computer-generated summary is not a substitute for the underlying records. New Hampshire permits automated software to assist with redactions when paired with human spot-checking—but the final response must still comply with the law. RSA 91-A:4
Third, government cannot simply invent a “by-the-minute” retaliation fee. The law generally permits actual copying costs and, under defined conditions, charges for electronic communications exceeding 250 communications. It also requires an itemized estimate, a written and consistent fee policy, and certain hardship or public-interest waivers. The agency bears the burden of showing that a disputed charge is reasonable.
Yes, broad requests can require work. The law recognizes that reality. Agencies may propose reasonable changes to make requests narrower, faster and less expensive. Requesters should describe records carefully and avoid needless duplication.
But answering lawful records requests is not an extracurricular favor performed only when officials feel generous. It is part of conducting public business. RSA 91-A exists to secure “the greatest possible public access” and government accountability. RSA 91-A:1
The commenter’s real proposal is a financial tollbooth: public records for citizens who can afford the meter, silence for those who cannot.
That is not fiscal responsibility. It is government secrecy wearing a taxpayer hat.
If Jim or Francis submits an improper request, identify the defect. If the request is overly broad, propose a reasonable narrowing. If a fee is lawful, itemize it under the statute.
Otherwise, produce the nonexempt records. The taxpayers already paid for the government that created them.
Biblical principle: Public servants must handle public business faithfully. “Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” —1 Corinthians 4:2. Keep lawful confidences—but open the public ledger.

No one cares who you have sex with, Shawn. The probably with Pappas is he was having sex with a lobbyist, lied about it, voted on legislation that the lobbyist was lobbying on, didn't disclose it. Then goes out and tries to campaign on him being a gay trailblazer. When its convenient for him he's shouting his gayness from the roof. When it isnt convenient he's pissed off you are talking about it.
Oh, and he supports murdering babies because the murderers give him money.

He is bragging on TV about extorting us leaders into starting the war.
Vote out EVERYONE (democrat and republican) who are supporting sending money out of our schools (raising our property taxes) and to Israel.
If the US sent 1/10-th of the money it spends to support Israel (which pays no US taxes, and has universal health care) to New Hampshire (which pays lots of taxes) no person in NH would have to pay a dollar of income or property taxes.

COUNTERBALANCE: THE INTELLECTUAL CAUCUS REPORTS (Monday, September 07 26 11:43 am EDT)
What a formidable gathering of intellectuals.
One commenter announces that “literally NO ONE” will read the article—after apparently reading enough of it to identify its title, subject and alleged origin. Another contributes a single schoolyard insult and mistakes it for literary criticism.
Gentlemen, the ball is now in your court.
If The Little Blue Money Machine contains an inaccurate figure, identify it. If a quotation is fabricated, correct it. If the reasoning is defective, explain why. If it copied another publication, provide the original source and matching language.
Bring facts. Bring documents. Bring an actual argument.
“No one will read it” is especially unconvincing coming from people who repeatedly visit the forum to discuss Francis, Jim and their writing. If the articles are worthless, the authors irrelevant and the audience nonexistent, why are the critics monitoring every publication and racing to comment?
The Sullivan Report permits criticism because free speech includes foolish speech. That freedom also allows everyone else to examine the quality of the criticism.
We sincerely invite these commenters to elevate the conversation. Address the evidence, challenge the conclusions and offer something the public can evaluate.
Until then, the article remains on the table—and the self-appointed intellectual caucus has produced two insults, zero corrections and no receipts.

your ai comments are retarded
Counterbalance (Monday, September 07 26 09:04 am EDT)
📌 COUNTERBALANCE: THREE COMMENTS—AND ALL THEIR LAUNDRY IS STILL WET
Three anonymous commenters stepped forward. Unfortunately, none answered the questions.
To “Millie Drupino”:
Whether you prefer cats, dogs or carrier pigeons is irrelevant. The issue concerns the documented conduct of an elected Sullivan County commissioner while living part of the year in Florida. Calling Francis a “crazy basement dweller” does not explain how long Joe Osgood remained in Florida, how he represented constituents from there, what happened to the captured cats or why supporting records have not been produced. Personal insults are what people use when their factual cupboard is bare.
To “Pro-Joe”:
You may believe trap-neuter-return does not work. Fair enough—that policy can be debated. But Joe reportedly told residents the cats would not be euthanized, while the Lakeland Gazette alleged that 17 were killed after more than 20 cats were delivered to Polk County Animal Control. Which account is accurate? Produce the intake and disposition records. “He did the right thing” is an opinion, not evidence.
To “Come on Francis!”:
Declining a radio appearance does not surrender anyone’s right to investigate an elected official. Francis was discussed on Joe’s friendly home field, with Joe’s longtime radio ally holding the microphone. Walking into a carefully staged political ambush is not the only respectable way to participate in public debate.
The questions are available in writing, where nobody can interrupt, redirect or later claim something different was asked. Joe can answer them in writing, attach his records and have his complete response published. That gives him control over his own words—not control over everyone else’s questions.
RSA 91-A applies to governmental records; it does not force an official to answer every political question. But attendance records, meeting minutes, official communications, calendars and reimbursement records may reveal whether the public statements match the paper trail.
This is not about controlling the narrative. It is about opening it. Joe may provide his side, Francis may examine it, and the public may decide whom the evidence supports.
⚖️ The Court of Public Opinion remains open. Bring facts, records and reasoned arguments. Anonymous name-calling is not testimony, and wet laundry does not become clean merely because three people hang it on the same line.
“The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.” — Proverbs 18:17. Examine every claim, require evidence and let truth—not volume—carry the verdict.

TNR doesn’t work. He did the right thing in Florida. If you don’t want cats to be euthanized, don’t let them take over a neighborhood. That simple.
Come on Francis! (Monday, September 07 26 05:12 am EDT)
Francis, you can’t bitch that Joe and Steve talked about you on the radio without inviting you and then refuse the invite to come on the show and still be taken seriously…
Wait, nobody does take you seriously.
You just don’t want anyone talking about you the way you talk about them because you want to have sole control over the narrative.
Also still wondering if you’re friends with or a supporter of Jon Stone. I’ve asked two times but transparency only applies to other people, not you apparently.

You're all a bunch of hypocrites.
Chris Pappas Truth (Sunday, September 06 26 08:01 pm EDT)
Pappas is Isreal First. Big Aipac receipt. Supported funding the genocide. Disgusting. Depraved sex acts with amazon lobbyist. I wouldn't vote for that perv if he was the only one on the ballot.
Team Pappas (Sunday, September 06 26 07:15 pm EDT)
This is a representative from Team Pappas. We have seen your comments on here and want to set some thing straight a few things.
[1] Did Chris have sex with an Amazon Lobbyist? Its none of your business, but yes.
[2] Did Chris support the tax code that lets Amazon pay little in taxes? Yes, but it has nothing to do with the sex acts the Amazon lobbyist performed on him.
[3] Did Chris support sending billions of dollars to Israel instead of NH. It's none of your business. But the votes are public, so yes.
[4] Did Chris sponsor legislation to put an Israel prime minister on US currency? Yes. But look at it this way, Israel prime ministers get stuff done for their voters so they should be honored. NH politicians screw over their voters. Who wants one of our politicians on US currency?
[5] If any of you want Chris to do something to support you or new hampshire, why don't you send down a lobbyist to perform sex acts on Chris???
[6] Tell us where you least want a data center, so Chris can oppose it until he can get Amazon to do the really crazy gay sex stuff he wants to try by the Amazon lobbyist just wont do.
[7] Don't worry, Chris will negotiate earplugs for those living near the data center to help with the noise. After a few years you wont hear it at all (and will probably be dead from the polluted water).
[8] Or just send down a lobbyist willing to do nastier gay shit than the Amazon guy and he'll switch sides and might represent you.

COUNTERBALANCE (Sunday, September 06 26 04:01 pm EDT)
THE BALL IS NOW IN YOUR COURT
Several anonymous commenters insist that Francis Gauthier’s writings are worthless, nobody reads them, nobody cares what he thinks, and his reports amount to nothing more than “AI slop.”
That raises one rather obvious question:
If Francis is so insignificant, why are you here so often?
Why monitor his articles, inspect his cartoons, remember his election history, answer his forum posts and return throughout the day under assorted names to repeat the same complaints?
People rarely devote this much time to something they genuinely consider irrelevant. Nobody establishes a round-the-clock fire watch over a candle that has already gone out.
Attention does not prove that every Francis Gauthier conclusion is correct. Facts still require evidence, honest mistakes should be corrected, and fair criticism remains welcome. But the critics’ repeated presence contradicts their claim that nobody is looking or listening.
You are looking. You are listening. And judging by the frequency and temperature of the responses, you care considerably more than you admit.
Now move beyond the insults and make the argument.
If an election total is wrong, provide the official result. If a legislative vote was misrepresented, identify the bill and roll call. If Francis “never showed up,” produce the official House attendance record. If a report contains a false quotation or conclusion, quote the exact passage and supply the contradicting document.
“Slop,” “loser” and “Franny” are labels—not evidence.
The Sullivan Report has given its critics room to speak. Use that freedom constructively. Choose the strongest factual statement you believe is wrong, quote it accurately, present reliable evidence and explain your conclusion.
Otherwise, repeatedly announcing that nobody reads Francis while faithfully reading everything Francis publishes is a rather peculiar argument.
The ball is in your court. Stop throwing tomatoes and start playing it.
Biblical principle: Let evidence answer accusation. “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” —1 Thessalonians 5:21. Examine the facts, discard what is false and keep what withstands scrutiny.

Pappas Admits He Lied About Relationship With Lobbyist
by Michael Graham
On Thursday, Rep. Chris Pappas acknowledged his involvement in a personal relationship with a corporate lobbyist, a relationship he repeatedly denied the night before during a live, televised debate.
“How dare you? That is not true, Matt. This is an outrageous charge,” Pappas said on WMUR, in response to the allegation from his GOP opponent, Matt Mowers Wednesday night.
Pappas is Evil (Sunday, September 06 26 12:58 pm EDT)
New Hampshire elected Pappas to change Washington.
All he did was:
(1) got elected
(2) take a small fortune of money from corporate lobbyists and Israel
(3) Vote to send billions and billions of your tax dollars out of new hampshire to Israel.
(4) Have sex with lobbyists hired to lobby him.
(5) Lie about having sex with lobbyist
(6) Not do a damn thing to help NH
We need to get rid of all of the Epstien-class politicians like pappas. God only knows what disgusting videos Israel has of Pappas doing sex stuff with lobbyists. .

Back to you, Phil (Sunday, September 06 26 09:25 am EDT)
THE OTHER SIDE OF FRANCIS GAUTHIER’S RECORD
Phil’s comment gets two numbers substantially right and then piles a wheelbarrow of opinion on top of them.
Francis Gauthier served one term representing Claremont Ward 1 from 2016 through 2018, and Andrew O’Hearne defeated him in 2018 by 613 votes to 416—a margin of 19.2 percentage points. Those are facts. 2018 election results
But elections have beginnings as well as endings.
In 2016, Ward 1 voters elected Gauthier with 758 votes to Allison Zito’s 660, flipping a seat previously held by a Democrat. That victory demonstrated that his message connected with enough Claremont residents to earn their confidence and send him to Concord. 2016 election results
His 2018 defeat also occurred during a statewide Democratic wave in which Republicans lost 61 New Hampshire House seats. Calling every defeated incumbent a personal failure ignores the political tide running across the entire state.
Gauthier’s legislative record shows identifiable positions: support for constitutional carry, education savings accounts and stronger voter-residency requirements, along with opposition to a state minimum-wage increase. People may agree or disagree with those votes, but voting according to principle is not the same as doing nothing. Citizens Count legislative record
Nor does public service end when a legislative term expires.
Since leaving office, Gauthier has continued examining Claremont government, filing Right-to-Know requests, reviewing budgets and public records, defending the Speedway and raising questions that larger news organizations sometimes overlook. A watchdog does not need a brass nameplate in Concord to serve his community.
One election victory does not make a man infallible. One election defeat does not make him worthless. If Phil wants to criticize particular votes, missed opportunities or legislative proposals, he should name them and provide the record.
Reducing an entire public life to one losing election is not analysis. It is a campaign obituary written eight years too late.

AI gatekeeper Osgood (Sunday, September 06 26 05:25 am EDT)
Joe Osgood Apparently Appointed Himself the Gatekeeper of AI
Joe, you say AI is “very good when used properly,” then appoint yourself judge of what “properly” means whenever the spotlight lands on you. That is convenient.
This dispute is not about AI. It is about public records, public statements, attendance, time spent outside New Hampshire, election results, and the conduct of an elected official. AI does not invent those records—it helps organize and examine them. If any specific claim is wrong, identify it, provide evidence, and correct the record. Calling everything “rhetoric” is not a rebuttal.
You claim I refused two public meetings. An invitation to appear in somebody else’s chosen setting is not a summons. I am under no obligation to walk into a controlled forum so you can dictate the format, interrupt the questions, or turn legitimate scrutiny into political theater. Written questions and documented answers create a record that everyone can inspect. Perhaps that is the real problem.
You also resorted to the tired “posting from the basement” insult. I could post from a basement, barn, pickup truck, or mountaintop. The location does not change the documents, voting records, meeting minutes, election returns, or your own recorded words.
You say your record proves your honesty. Fine. Then let the record speak—and answer the questions without attacking the person asking them.
Public officials do not get to choose who may scrutinize them. They work for the public. Questions are not “hate,” criticism is not harassment, and Facebook is not your private praise club.
The Court of Public Opinion remains open, Joe. Bring evidence—not excuses.
Biblical principle: Honest answers withstand examination. “He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.” —Proverbs 18:17. Public service requires facing fair scrutiny, not silencing it.

If only Pappas cared half as much about NH as he does Israel. Israel already has enough Senators representing them. New Hampshire has none. Time to vote in someone not on a foreign government's payroll.
More time looking out for NH, less time cashing corporate and PAC checks, Chrissy.
Fuck Goodlander (Sunday, September 06 26 01:25 am EDT)
You think Pappas is bad, that bitch Goodlander is married to Jake Sullivan, one of the masterminds of the genocide under Biden. She's also taken lots of AIPAC money. I'm not a socialist, and I don't love her opponent, but I draw the line at genocide so can't vote for that evil bitch. I'll probably write in someone, or just "Anyone but that pro-genocide evil bitch Goodlander or pro-genocide evil fag Pappas". Unfortunately the republicans are just as bad.
Faggot Pappas (Sunday, September 06 26 01:07 am EDT)
Hey Pappas: why don't you keep our ax money in new hampshire (or at least the country) instead of to a foreign country, Israel? Oh, right, because their PAC is paying you millions of dollars, and you vote to send OUR money to fund another country's military.
Why not put NH on a coin instead of SPONSORING legislation to put an Israeli politician on US coins. In my book, that's treason.
You can't make this shit up.
I'm voting for Manzur who has taken 0 AIPAC money. But anyone is better than the pro-genocide, corrupt, sellout would be better.
Pappas Sucks (Sunday, September 06 26 12:41 am EDT)
He is also a disgusting lying faggot, who is bought and paid for by special interests. The Israel lobby and big corporate interests.
Vote Out Pappas on Tuesday (Sunday, September 06 26 12:36 am EDT)
Democratic Senate Candidate Chris Pappas has taken millions from APAC. He voted to send AND PAY FOR the weapons to Israel they are using in their genocide. That's right, you are paying for weapons for Israel while they offer their citizens universal healthcare and many in the US can't afford healthcare.
He received sexual favors from a lobbyist and didn't disclose it. (look it up)
He SPONSORED legislation to mint US coins with Israel politicians on them (look it up, its true).
On Tuesday vote anyone other than this piece of shit.
I'm voting for the progressive Manzur who hasn't taken a dime from APAC.

So when someone asked about a certain Police Commissioner named Limoges and suggested seeing if there is any access to any Police report involving a police officer investigating a neighbor complaint and subsequently calling for a police supervisor because it involved a police commissioner which rule did that violate? How about when someone suggested you 91a request any planning office email or call for police to the visitors center involving the same police commissioner? Which rule did that violate besides you cowardly avoiding looking at real issues. Someone copy and paste and keep posting this when Jim deletes it. He is the only one allowed to call people weak, cowardly, etc.

whenever you see lots of slop. AI or human slop. look through the older comments and see what someone is trying to bury. because that's what happens someone points out something important and damning and the slop comes in to bury it.
Jim: real names. thats the answer. require real names.
The Other Jim (Saturday, September 05 26 05:38 pm EDT)
Jim-
I think you are trying to do the right thing in response to the recent issues in the comments, but I think there are a couple problems you should think through:
-You have three simple rules. Great. But rules 2, "All derogatory comments about minors will be deleted." is completely redundant with rule 3 "Derogatory comments about private citizens will be deleted." Aren't all minors private citizens? I think you really mean something else, but I'm not sure what.
-I dont think you really mean "All derogatory comments about private citizens will be deleted." If John Smith comes and writes a comment and I respond by saying "John Smith you're ideas are really dumb" are you going to delete that if John Smith isn't a public official? A big topic of discussion is Francis AI slop. I really wish you would add AI slop to your rules. But as long as he is posting it, can we criticize him for doing it? or are you going to delete those comments because he is a private citizen?
-Also I don't know what you mean by "sexually explicit" for rule 1. The school district loves to hire teachers who have sexual relationships with students. Can we not discuss those events when they come up? People love to accuse people of being gay and use slurs on here. Are those ok? Would love it if the answer is no.
Phil (Saturday, September 05 26 04:48 pm EDT)
When examining the political history of Claremont, New Hampshire, the legislative record of former State Representative Francis Gauthier stands as a clear example of a failed short-term political career.
Elected as a Republican to serve Sullivan County District 3 (Claremont Ward 1) in 2016, Gauthier’s time in office was remarkably brief, concluding after just a single term.
His failure to secure a second term highlights a significant disconnect between his legislative approach and the actual needs of the Claremont community.
For a state lawmaker, the primary measure of success is the ability to build meaningful coalitions, pass impactful legislation, and maintain the confidence of the voters who put them in office. Gauthier struggled to deliver on these fronts.
Instead of establishing himself as a reliable, long-term champion for Sullivan County in Concord, his platform failed to resonate broadly with the electorate.
In the 2018 general election, he suffered a decisive defeat to Democrat Andrew O'Hearne, losing the seat by nearly 20 points.
This rapid rejection by his own constituents underscored a widespread local sentiment that his representation was failing to move Claremont forward.
Effective leadership in the New Hampshire House of Representatives requires a sustained commitment to addressing pressing local challenges, from property tax burdens to economic development.
Gauthier's swift exit from the legislature after a single term left Claremont needing to look elsewhere for effective advocacy.
Rather than building a lasting legacy of policy achievements, his brief tenure ultimately served as a cautionary tale of a political platform that failed to deliver for the people of Sullivan County.

Wendy (Saturday, September 05 26 12:33 pm EDT)
The immature comments always magically appear when certain topics are discussed almost like a strategic diversion. There are people in this community that don't want open dialogue, it's not in their interest. If there's a subject they don't want you discussing whether it's an incident or something the local government is doing then on queue the nonsense begins, like 5 post in a row pushing the original comment down the public forum, it's so obvious!
Jim Sullivan (Saturday, September 05 26 08:57 am EDT)
In the past, I have rarely ever had to delete anyone’s comments from the Sullivan Report’s Public Forum because people have had the common sense to write comments that get their point across like civilized adults. Unfortunately, that has now changed! It is obvious that this is a premeditated attempt to discredit both myself and this website because I have made many enemies within Local Government circles both with Public Officials and their supporters as I continue to expose things occurring within various local government entities with irrefutable documented proof that these Public Officials do not want the Citizens of Claremont to know about.
The Sullivan Report Public Forum was created to allow Citizens to state their concerns anonymously because many people in the community are afraid of retribution from Public Officials. I hear it all of time from Citizens, who speak with me privately and trust me and their numbers are growing.
Recently, I have tried to lay down a few Ground Rules to try to put a stop to this, thus far with little success. So now I will be taking it one step further by posting at the top of this webpage 3 Ground Rules that will begin immediately. I have absolutely no interest in censoring anyone and I definitely do not enjoy having to delete comments, but since one or more bad characters are determined to continue to maliciously try to ruin this Public Forum for everyone else, it leaves me no choice but to establish these few Ground Rules, which are intentionally designed to bring back some common sense to this Public Forum while trying to avoid allowing members of the public to voice their concerns about local issues.
Have I thought of everything regarding these new Ground Rules? Unlikely! So, I may have to make changes to the Ground Rules going forward as there is definitely a learning curve to this.
These Ground Rules will apply only to new comments going forward as the Ground Rules did not exist before then. Here are the Ground Rules; hopefully I will not have to enforce them often if at all so long as people can act maturely and responsibly:
1. All sexually explicit comments will be deleted.
2. All derogatory comments about minors will be deleted.
3. Derogatory comments about private citizens will be deleted.

Old timer (Friday, September 04 26 07:51 pm EDT)
Joe is better at ai than fran
Hands down
Back back to timer (Friday, September 04 26 07:25 pm EDT)
To “Old Timers”:
So the complaint is that Francis uses AI—but when an AI cartoon targets Francis, it suddenly becomes “fighting fire with fire” and “well done”? That is not a principle. That is a double standard wearing an “Old Timers” name tag.
If Joe Osgood created or promoted the cartoon, I’ll give credit where it is due: it was a good effort. Somebody studied my approach closely enough to copy the political-cartoon format, the satire and the visual storytelling. Imitation remains one of life’s more backhanded compliments. I’ll take it.
But let us establish one rule for everybody. Either AI-assisted political satire is legitimate expression, or it is not. It cannot be disgraceful when Francis uses it and brilliant craftsmanship when Joe’s side uses it. Pick a lane—the political axle-grease truck is already taking up most of the road.
As for “basement cellar dweller,” a basement and cellar are generally the same thing. Even the insult appears to have been generated twice.
Enjoy the cartoon. I did. But don’t confuse selective outrage with consistency. If Joe’s work is fair political satire, then mine receives the same protection. Free speech is not reserved for whichever team happens to be holding the grease can.
Biblical principle: “Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the Lord.” — Proverbs 20:10. Apply the same standard to your friends that you apply to your critics.
Back to critic (Friday, September 04 26 07:11 pm EDT)
You may think the cartoon is lame. Humor is subjective; election returns are less flexible.
For accuracy, Joe Osgood did not lose Croydon in 2024. Benjamin Nelson carried Claremont, Cornish, Grantham and Plainfield. Osgood won the remaining 11 communities and prevailed countywide, 12,823 to 10,675—54.5% to 45.4%. That was a 2,148-vote, nine-point victory: decisive, though hardly an impenetrable fortress. See the reported results.
The politically notable fact is that Osgood lost Claremont and Cornish, the two communities comprising his District 1 seat, while winning through support elsewhere in Sullivan County. The 2026 contest is another Osgood–Nelson matchup.
The “axle grease” is satire—a metaphor for political connections and a seasoned incumbent keeping his political machinery humming. It is not an allegation of bribery or criminal conduct.
People can debate the artwork all night. The real questions concern Osgood’s record, his months in Florida, remote versus physical attendance, the unresolved allegations published about the Lakeland cat controversy and why voters in his own district preferred Nelson last time.
If the cartoon draws attention to those documented questions, it has done its job. The grease can is decorative. The election record is real.
Biblical principle: “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:21. Check the record first, then judge the satire.

I have to say, Jim, there's a real point here. Dale's son is a grown man and involved in community sports. If someone wants to criticize his athletic ability, that isn't nearly as bad as half the crap you have allowed on here over the years. You don't want this to become WUC.

You allowed discussion of MVP's related to the Girls soccer program. Why was that allowed? Dale's son is a public coach in the community for Christ's sake. Why can't someone comment on their opinion of his athletic ability??

Claremont’s next potted plant manager (Thursday, September 03 26 04:41 am EDT)
🏛️ Claremont’s Next City Manager: Cinde Warmington? 🤔
If Cinde Warmington loses the governor’s race in November 🗳️, she may find herself polishing the résumé 📄 and searching the want ads. That could present Claremont with what certain folks at City Hall might consider a golden opportunity: hire Warmington as the next city manager! 🎉
Just imagine the possibilities. 😏
Claremont already has a government with expensive ambitions 💸, recurring financial troubles 📉 and an appetite for programs that frequently outruns the taxpayers’ wallets. Add an experienced progressive politician to the manager’s office, and the ideological furniture might match perfectly. 🛋️🌈
Warmington could arrive in January, tour the unsettled school finances 🏫, examine the city’s bookkeeping questions 📚 and announce the traditional government solution: another committee, another consultant and another invoice. 🧾💰
Perhaps she would fit right in. 🤝 Or perhaps Claremont taxpayers, already carrying heavy school and municipal burdens 🏋️, would finally decide that City Hall needs a financial mechanic 🔧—not another passenger asking where the government gas card is kept. ⛽
Naturally, this is political satire. 🎭 Warmington has not announced that she wants the job, and Claremont has not offered it. But the joke raises a serious question: What kind of manager does this city actually need? 🔍
Should Claremont hire another polished administrator from the political establishment? 🏛️ Or should it seek a tough, independent manager willing to cut waste ✂️, balance the books ⚖️, honor Right-to-Know requests 📂 and place taxpayers ahead of fashionable projects?
Warmington in the manager’s chair might complete Claremont’s progressive portrait. 🖼️ Whether taxpayers could afford the frame is another matter. 💵😬
Biblical principle: Leadership must count the cost before beginning the work. “For which of you… sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost?” — Luke 14:28. Claremont needs stewardship before ideology. 🙏

Dale is protected (Wednesday, September 02 26 07:10 pm EDT)
Look below. Jim was ok with "XXXXX stop being a pussy and kill himself" But you can't say anything about Dale?
Clarity (Wednesday, September 02 26 07:06 pm EDT)
Jim: The comment "Lukas
(Wednesday, July 29 26 11:10 am EDT)" refers to a school board members minor child. Is that cool? He is not a public figure. Why did you let that stay up? What are you allowed to say about someone child? Can I say things about Dale's child? Or just Rapps?
Bull Woke Rules (Wednesday, September 02 26 06:02 pm EDT)
That's a low blow!! Calling someone Kipp. Worst insult ever. Now do we delete this? Is Kipp public figure? Is that an insult at Kipp below the line. Can I mention Kipp at all. Is it only sexual stuff that doesn't work. If I say Kipp has a bad haircut can that stay?

Jim: You're fine with:
"Wrestlemania 69 (Friday, June 26 26 12:15 pm EDT) Put Irish with his faggit earrings and midget fat boy cockwell in the ring at the track and lets see !!!!!!!!!"
Which has been up for 2 months!!! But if someone suggests something you disagree with about Dale after he went on TV to endorse a MA senate candidate, you delete it all.
This whole site is a scam. You just keep comments when people agree with you and delete when people dont.
Jim = Kipp 2.0

BS Rules (Wednesday, September 02 26 04:40 pm EDT)
Ha! Jim be consistent! Dream on. People have been writing disgusting things about Irish and Cogswell on here for years. Ten times worse than anything about Dale, and Jim was happy with it. Some of it is still there below. But the minute someone goes after someone Jim likes, the rules change and it gets deleted. You can have whatever views you want, Jim. You can allow or disallow whatever you want. But its that kind of BS that turns people off. Just tell us what the rules are.
Pennington (Wednesday, September 02 26 04:26 pm EDT)
Jim: Can you just make a clear policy and enforce it. I have no problem what it is as long as you are consistent about it.
You still have comments up calling Councilman Irish a F word? Why is that OK, but not the stuff about Dale. Be consistent.
And get rid of Francis' AI slop. No one wants to read that crap either.
Jim Sullivan (Wednesday, September 02 26 04:20 pm EDT)
Things are getting out of hand. Going forward any comments of a sexual nature will be deleted. No exceptions! People can make their point without using sexually explicit comments.
Mike (Wednesday, September 02 26 04:16 pm EDT)
I thought Jim didn’t delete comments about public figures only private citizens? I honestly don’t mind him deleting more comments this public forum is a cesspool. But let’s start with the AI slop from Francis and work back from there.
Rigged (Wednesday, September 02 26 03:58 pm EDT)
What's the deal, Jim.
Someone calls out Dale (our shitty dumb Mayor) for endorsing a bad politician by saying he was orally pleasuring that politician and you can't delete it fast enough.
But someone calls a different councilor who isn't gay the "F" word for gay, and you leave it up? There are plenty of other comments accusing or mocking or cartooning local people of all kinds of shit you haven't removed over the years.
I have no problem with this being an open forum. Or if it is moderated if its consistent. But you just remove stuff against some but not others.

Sam (Tuesday, September 01 26 11:06 am EDT)
Just like a sinking ship, so is this town. Everything from housing to the school district. Claremont used to be a vibrant place to live. There were things for kids to do, there was Arrowhead, a movie theater and the outdoor pool. Now it just feels like a ghost town with much needed repair. Those in power just can’t seem to see what’s right in front of them, or they chose to keep their blinders on. Where is our tax money going? We need people in those positions to make sound financial decisions, so that our town does not sink further and further into the mud. The community needs to pull together to keep this from happening, we need to stop arguing amongst ourselves, remove those in power, that aren’t making a difference and get this town back on track. If we don’t, it’ll all be lost.
No Hope For Claremont (Tuesday, September 01 26 09:53 am EDT)
Democrat logic- Claremont is a poor city with a crippling school budget forcing people out of their homes.
Democrats- Oh lets keep taking properties off the tax roll, building more social service and now lets add to 172 low income project to really to really destroy what is left of the city.
Why don't they put it in Sunapee or Croydon?

Claremont is ashamed of its mayor (Monday, August 31 26 12:31 pm EDT)
Look at Mamdani. Love him? Hate him. He's out there everyday interacting with New Yorkers, leading the city, pushing his point of view. Addressing citizen concerns. Leading the public works. What a mayor should be doing.
Now look at Claremont's shit bag mayor Dale? Where the fuck is he? School issues? Dale can't be fucking found. Debate around the 172 housing units. Not sure what Dale thinks, but he can't be found. Public statement? Nahh. Press conference nope. Schools in crisis did you see Dale? Planning commission, where's Dale? If there isn't a national republican "staff" to suc...polish, he can't be found.
But when locally scumbag Jon Stone wants something, Dale is there. When that ass hole from Massachusetts wants to run for office, Dale is there with his lips...
You like Massachusetts so much? Go move there you ass hole.
Then he's off saying Trump is right about everything. Really?? I liked not being at war. Not murdering school girls. Not massive inflation. Not sky high gas prices. Not having a spat with Canada.
Dale: do us all a favor. Move the fuck out of Claremont and New Hampshire. Move to Massachusetts with the politicians you like, continue doing nothing for Claremont (that wont change), and you can freely prance around in your cowboy outfit and necklaces there and you are free to spend your time sucking off every republicans you want there.

Claremont’s 172-Unit Puzzle (Monday, August 31 26 05:27 am EDT)
A proposal for 172 housing units on 75 acres off First Street in Claremont has officially entered the zoning process. How long has this been in the works, what did City officials already know, and what important pieces remain hidden from public view?
Read the full investigation at the link below, then give us your verdict. 🧩🔍🏛️
https://www.facebook.com/share/p/19Jtu18fGS/?mibextid=wwXIfr
WHEN DID CITY HALL FIRST KNOW? (Monday, August 31 26 03:17 am EDT)
WATCHDOG VERDICT
The City’s official notice proves that the 172-unit proposal is real.
It also proves that the public is joining the conversation only after SCS selected a property, chose a unit count, analyzed the zoning, prepared an application and obtained a scheduled hearing.
That does not yet prove an illegal secret meeting or a backroom deal.
It does prove that meaningful preliminary work occurred before the ordinary public received this one-page notice.
The proper conclusion is:
City staff knew before the public notice. How long they knew, how extensively they assisted, and whether public money or municipal infrastructure was discussed remain unanswered questions that belong in the public record.
Residents should attend the September 8 hearing. They should demand the complete application beforehand. They should ask precise questions and ensure those questions become part of the official record.
The hearing should not become a ceremonial checkpoint where everyone discovers that the engineers, financiers and bureaucrats have already loaded the train and only need the Zoning Board to wave it through.
Claremont may need more housing. That does not excuse weak disclosure, careless planning or public involvement arriving after the important conversations have already occurred.
The public is not an obstacle to the process. The public is supposed to be part of the process.

MIT and Lakes Region Community College brought 16 New Hampshire teenagers together for a four-week course in mathematics and artificial intelligence. Students tackled farming, medical-risk, and personal-finance projects—serious instruction with real potential. But the public announcement leaves basic questions unanswered: Who paid? What did taxpayers contribute? Which companies accessed student work or data? What did parents authorize? And who owns the results?

is there a bigger piece of shit than Dale?? Can't suck off the republicans establishment enough. inherited a business from daddy. Runs as a democrat. Admits he doesn't read legislation he votes on. when he bothers to show up. switches parties (so fuck you whoever voted for him), then goes on tv and says how Trump is right about everything (really, ass hole, the wars, the genocide, runaway inflation, pardoning frausters, taking personal money from Qatar, hiding the Epstein list) Good to know that ass hole Dale thinks that's all great. He could have gone independent, but nope, ran to the republicans and got down on his knees with Lindsay Grahman to pleasure trump in everyway possible. What a piece of shit.
SPECIAL EDUCATION IS NOT BEYOND REPROACH (Friday, August 28 26 05:50 am EDT)
New Hampshire school districts have a duty to protect children—not to hide the public checkbook.
Under RSA 91-A, contracts, vendor names, purchase orders, payment records, rate schedules and invoices held by a school district are generally governmental records. Taxpayers are entitled to know which outside contractors receive public money, what services the district purchased and how much those contractors were paid.
Student privacy remains protected. Names, identification numbers, diagnoses, individual education plans and other details capable of identifying a child may be withheld or redacted. But that protection does not ordinarily turn the contractor’s identity, contract price or total payments into a state secret.
The distinction is plain:
Protect the child. Disclose the checkbook.
A district cannot conceal an entire contract or invoice merely because the expenditure involves special education. It should redact protected student information and release the reasonably separable financial material. If the district withholds anything further, it must identify the specific legal exemption and briefly explain how that exemption applies—not simply pronounce the record “confidential.”
RSA 91-A:4 gives citizens access to governmental records in a public agency’s possession, custody or control. RSA 91-A:5 protects personal school records and certain other exempt information. Neither provision establishes a blanket “special-education black box.”
Nobody is asking to expose a child’s disability, family circumstances or educational plan. The public is asking ordinary questions about public money:
* Who received it?
* How much was paid?
* What services were purchased?
* What rates were charged?
* Who approved the contract?
* What safeguards prevented waste, favoritism or overbilling?
Special education performs vital work for vulnerable children. That importance demands accountability; it does not excuse its absence. No public program is beyond examination, and no contractor receiving taxpayer money should be hidden behind the privacy rights of the children being served.
The school district owes the public either the properly redacted records or a lawful, record-specific explanation for withholding them. “Trust us” is not an accounting system, and “confidential” is not a magic word.
Protect the child. Open the books.
Biblical principle: Public business should withstand honest examination. “Provide things honest in the sight of all men.” —Romans 12:17. Guard every child’s privacy while giving taxpayers a truthful accounting of their money.

THE MUPPET MOB: ANOTHER EMERGENCY MEETING (Wednesday, August 26 26 01:00 pm EDT)
“Canadian Tuxedo” has announced that Francis uses AI to answer forum comments.
Interesting assertion. Now where is the evidence?
Did the commenter witness the response being written? Examine its drafting history? Obtain computer records? Conduct some dazzling forensic analysis unavailable to ordinary mortals?
No. He apparently decided that any organized response exceeding three sentences must have arrived by machine. That conclusion may reveal more about his expectations than it does about Francis.
A polished writing style is not proof of artificial generation. Neither are headings, complete sentences, analogies or correct punctuation. Human beings managed those feats long before computers—occasionally even in Claremont.
More importantly, the commenter identifies no false statement, fabricated quotation, plagiarized passage or incorrect public record. He offers profanity, “clown,” and an acronym joke. The investigative cupboard remains rather bare.
If he believes a specific statement is wrong, quote it and provide the correcting evidence. If he alleges plagiarism, identify the original source and matching language. If he disputes the reasoning, explain the defect.
Bring receipts.
Whether a writer uses a legal pad, word processor, spell-checker, research assistant or smoke signals is secondary. The public question is whether the finished argument is accurate and supported.
The Muppet Mob avoids that question because examining records requires work. Mocking the suspected writing process merely requires an alias and a keyboard.
As for dropping the “I” from AI, the commenter may want to keep it nearby. Intelligence becomes particularly useful when distinguishing proof from speculation.
Until evidence arrives, “Canadian Tuxedo” has not exposed anything. He has simply presented an assumption, wrapped it in profanity and mistaken the package for journalism.
Biblical principle: An unsupported conclusion is not knowledge. “He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.” —Proverbs 18:17. Test the claim before announcing the verdict.
Canadian Tuxedo (Wednesday, August 26 26 11:36 am EDT)
Francis is using AI to respond to forum posts now? Holy shit, what a clown. Can that dude produce a single, original thought? When Francis posts we should consider dropping the I from the acronym and just keeping the A.
NATE’S INVISIBLE FILING CABINET (Wednesday, August 26 26 10:54 am EDT)
📌📌Poor Nate has returned carrying another truckload of allegations—and still cannot locate a single receipt.
He assures us that he possesses more information than we can imagine. Apparently, it is stored in the same invisible filing cabinet where City Hall keeps the records taxpayers have been requesting.
Nate demands that I prove things did not happen. By that standard, he should first prove that he never robbed a stagecoach in Nevada, joined the circus under an assumed name, or buried pirate gold behind the Claremont Opera House.
We shall wait patiently for the documentation.
He also says this is an “eight-user website,” yet he reads every article, follows every reply, remembers old disputes, researches family members and returns regularly with another speech. For a supposedly irrelevant little website, The Sullivan Report occupies a remarkable amount of space in Nate’s day.
Then comes the grand contradiction: Nate warns against “internet bullying” while offering a “taste of your own medicine” and promising to “change your day.” Nothing demonstrates opposition to bullying quite like a vaguely menacing paragraph. Splendid work.
Is Nate connected to government, benefiting from government, or merely emotionally attached to the machinery? We cannot know without evidence—and unlike Nate, we do not manufacture facts merely because they would be convenient. But his fury whenever public records, government spending or accountability arise certainly invites the public to wonder why these subjects strike such a nerve.
No psychiatric diagnosis is necessary. The visible condition is simpler: chronic receipt deficiency accompanied by acute Sullivan Report fixation.
The recommended treatment is one documented fact, taken twice daily, followed by a week away from the keyboard. Prozac should be left to actual physicians.
Until Nate produces evidence, his allegations remain fishing expeditions conducted without bait. Lots of splashing. No fish.
Biblical principle: Loud claims are no substitute for proof. “In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin.” —Proverbs 10:19. Speak less, document more, and let verified facts carry the argument.👀👀👀
Nate P. (Wednesday, August 26 26 08:17 am EDT)
Frank. I am not insulted by your name calling. I find it interesting that you lecture about name calling when someone can't provide documents. You then choose to post someone else's legislation that has nothing to do with you. You didn't testify for the bill or show up. That is not a receipt. That is a show of a weak mind trying to divert attention. Post a link to child support payments. Post documents to show you did not move here from Vermont. Post documents to show you never rented any apartments to a women named Cathy. I could go on for days and have more information at my finger tips than you can imagine on both of you clowns and Arlene. You might want to back it down a notch and examine who you want to be as a person. TikTok has more reach than this 8 user website. Just like Jon O'Connor warning you he was coming to see you face to face I am warning you about internet bullying. I can change your day and get you some real exposure if you would like a taste of your own medicine. Some advice, when you divest of your real estate holdings to avoid financial recovery you should have hired a attorney as you made traceable mistakes.

New Hampshire’s recently enacted HB 1563 proves that stronger accountability is possible without exposing children. Beginning July 1, 2028, districts seeking state reimbursement must provide certified, student-specific reports to the Department of Education. Claimed services must be connected to the student’s IEP and supported by records such as invoices, payroll information, and schedules. The law also establishes risk-based monitoring, reviews at least 20% of participating districts annually, permits targeted examinations when anomalies appear, and allows the state to recover overpayments.

You were asked on here about numerous things by others. You ignored them. You demand others provide proof your comments are not true. Do the same.

The special ed black box (Tuesday, August 25 26 07:43 am EDT)
Special education appears to have been granted a kind of institutional sainthood: its mission may be praised, its spending must be funded, but its operation must never be seriously questioned.
The armored plate used to stop public scrutiny is student privacy. Privacy is essential. No responsible taxpayer is asking for children’s names, diagnoses, individual education plans, or personal histories. But protecting students does not justify concealing aggregate spending, contractor payments, administrative costs, transportation expenses, billing rates, staffing levels, or measurable results.
Special-education enrollment and spending have grown substantially over the past five to ten years. That alone does not prove wrongdoing. It does, however, create a legitimate obligation to explain where the money is going, why costs are increasing, who ultimately receives those public dollars, and whether the services purchased are producing results.
The “black box” exists when officials combine confidential student information with ordinary financial records and declare the entire subject off-limits. That arrangement creates fertile ground for waste, inflated contracts, favoritism, weak oversight—or even the diversion of public funds into private pockets. Those are risks requiring examination, not accusations to be accepted without evidence.
Special-education students deserve strong services. Taxpayers deserve honest accounting. These two principles are not enemies. In fact, proper oversight protects the children by ensuring that money intended for them actually reaches the classroom and the services they need.
Public money must never become private money simply because someone stamped “confidential” across the file.
Biblical principle: Stewardship requires accountability—“Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful” (1 Corinthians 4:2). Protect the child, examine the books, and demand faithful stewardship.

Why would you publish incorrect information?
The Muppet Masters of Anonymous Outrage (Tuesday, August 25 26 04:47 am EDT)
THE GREAT “CHAT CPT” CRISIS
Let us settle this grave matter before Claremont is forced to activate the emergency siren.
Yes, Jim wrote “Chat CPT” instead of ChatGPT. It was a typographical error. It has now been noticed, identified, and corrected approximately seventeen times by anonymous commenters who apparently believe they have uncovered the Pentagon Papers.
Thank you for your service.
Ironically, “AI Employee #3” declared that others have “know freaking idea” what they are discussing. The intended word was no, not “know.” That mistake does not invalidate the commenter’s entire argument—although it does make the lecture on proofreading rather entertaining.
Jim uses speech-to-text, which sometimes misunderstands words. Francis uses ChatGPT Work from OpenAI. Neither fact proves plagiarism, dishonesty, or intellectual laziness. A misspelled product name certainly does not disprove the underlying public records, dates, financial figures, or government correspondence discussed in an article.
Here is the professional standard:
* If an article contains a typo, identify it and correct it.
* If it contains a factual error, provide the correct fact and supporting source.
* If it plagiarizes another work, identify the original and show the copied language.
* If its conclusions are wrong, rebut the evidence and reasoning.
That is how adults conduct a serious public debate.
Repeating “Chat CPT,” calling people “muppets” and “dumbass,” and hiding behind numbered aliases does not answer a single RSA 91-A request or government-accountability question. It merely proves that anonymous critics can locate one typographical error while carefully walking around the substance of an entire article.
The correction is noted. Now that the republic has survived, perhaps our anonymous proofreaders could address the public records.
What specific fact in the reporting is wrong?
Name it. Document it. Correct it.
Until then, the critics are inspecting a misplaced comma while City Hall’s filing cabinet remains locked.
Biblical principle: Substance matters more than petty fault-finding. “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” —John 7:24. Correct genuine errors, then confront the actual evidence.
“BIBLE SCHOLAR” (Tuesday, August 25 26 04:30 am EDT)
A REPLY TO OUR LATEST “BIBLE SCHOLAR”
Nate, you have produced quite a sermon. Unfortunately, it contains no Scripture, no evidence, no Christian charity, and no recognizable command of the English language. Other than that, magnificent work.
You made serious accusations involving child support, tenant surveillance, and personal conduct. If you possess court records, police reports, photographs, sworn testimony, or other credible evidence, publish the documents or provide them to the proper authorities. If you have none, then you are circulating unverified personal allegations under somebody’s name on a public forum.
That is not accountability. It is gossip wearing work boots.
Your comments about clothing, bodily functions, and supposed cowardice are merely juvenile insults. They answer no government record, budget discrepancy, RSA 91-A request, audit question, or public-policy argument raised by The Sullivan Report.
Then you wrote that someone should expect to “get hit” for speaking and celebrated a story about another person supposedly coming to administer a “bitch slap.” That language can reasonably be understood as promoting or threatening violence. It should be preserved—with the username, date, time, page address, and available technical records—in case the behavior continues or escalates.
People do not surrender their right to investigate government because an anonymous commenter challenges them to appear at a podium. Citizens may participate through meetings, public-records requests, published commentary, letters, videos, or any other lawful means. Government belongs to the people who pay for it, including those who never approach a microphone.
As for artificial intelligence, your objections remain beside the point. If a published fact is wrong, identify it and present the correction. If a document is fraudulent, prove it. If an article plagiarized another source, name that source and show the copied language.
Otherwise, you have offered a bucket of personal abuse and called it an argument.
You invoked the Bible while bearing accusations, cursing your neighbor, and endorsing physical retaliation. That is rather like quoting a cookbook while setting fire to the kitchen.
Bring evidence, discuss the public issues, and leave the threats behind.
Biblical principle: God condemns both false accusations and violent speech. “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.” —Exodus 20:16. Make no charge you cannot prove, and answer words with truth—not fists.

In regards to today's Planning Board meeting; I watched it this evening and I always intended to do an article on Sunday about what transpired and I will.

Thou shall not wear depends to a school boarding meeting that are full with a foul odor.
Thou shall not continue uses ai writing praising thyself like we are all stupid.
Though shall not talk shit without getting hit. This is why neither of you pussies show up to meetings and speak at a podium. You shall be judged by thy neighbors so are scared that people will know what thy look like.

Oh damn watching the planning board meeting tonight they approved Starbucks and 20 plus units of housing. Same info was published on the city website and Jim had access to the information like anyone else. This clown digs for trash, comes up empty and ignores anything positive. He will find a way to shit on progress. Starbucks isn't for Jim's whiny ass and it is too hard for Francis to place any order and you have to have a middle level IQ. I can't wait for him to find fault with Red Rivers former space and Twin pines. We can all Google Jim so don't act like you are the only man to guide the weak. Jim is that your car parked in a City park on Factory Street everyday like it is your own personal space? If your lifetime Jim have you ever paid taxes? Someone 91a Jim's tax history. Not a dime.

Anti-AI government (Monday, August 24 26 11:44 am EDT)
CLAREMONT SHOULD PUT AI TO WORK FOR THE TAXPAYERS
Claremont officials and their anonymous defenders enjoy ridiculing citizens for using artificial intelligence. Perhaps City Hall should spend less time sneering at the technology and more time learning how it could improve government operations.
Used responsibly—with human review, security safeguards, and public oversight—AI could help Claremont organize records, track contracts, reconcile accounts, locate missing documents, flag unusual transactions, process RSA 91-A requests, apply consistent redactions, and create searchable audit trails. It could identify contradictions before they become scandals and make public information easier for taxpayers to understand.
That would not replace competent employees or sound judgment. It would give them better tools and make their work easier to verify.
Perhaps that last part explains the resistance.
A government equipped with searchable records, reliable timestamps, automated compliance checks, and transparent financial tracking would leave fewer dark corners in which favoritism, waste, incompetence, or misconduct could hide. AI cannot make dishonest people honest, but it can make questionable activity harder to conceal.
I am not claiming that every Claremont employee is corrupt or personally profiting from government. Such charges require evidence. But years of delayed records, financial confusion, weak oversight, and unanswered questions have created a serious credibility problem. City Hall cannot repair that problem by mocking the citizens examining its work.
Government already takes citizens’ money under force of law. That makes strict accountability essential. Without transparency and restraint, taxation begins to resemble legalized plunder with better stationery.
Claremont should use modern technology to open its books, improve its records, and serve the public. If officials have nothing improper to conceal, stronger transparency should be welcomed—not feared.
Biblical principle: Honest stewardship welcomes an accounting. “So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.” —Romans 14:12. Public officials should be equally prepared to account for every public dollar.
Vulgarity is the order of the day (Monday, August 24 26 11:28 am EDT)
WHEN THEY CANNOT ANSWER THE RECORDS, THEY ATTACK THE PEOPLE REQUESTING THEM
The latest anonymous comments offer crude jokes about lightbulbs, bedrooms, computers, and Jim Sullivan’s use of text-to-speech. Quite a performance—but still no answer to the underlying public-records questions.
For clarity, New Hampshire citizens submit Right-to-Know requests under RSA 91-A. FOIA generally applies to federal agencies. Jim’s speech-to-text software may occasionally produce a typo, but a misspelled word does not invalidate an invoice, meeting record, budget figure, official email, or government document.
The “AI is a tool” argument does not mean people should stop thinking or checking their work. It means precisely what it says: AI is a tool. Its value depends upon how it is used. A hammer can build a house or flatten somebody’s thumb. That does not make carpentry dishonest.
AI allows citizens to sort large collections of public records, identify contradictions, compare official statements, and explain complicated government business in plain English. That may explain some of the hostility. Records that once disappeared into filing cabinets can now become understandable storylines before City Hall has finished brewing its morning coffee.
Are these anonymous commenters government or school employees? Their names and remarks invite suspicion, but suspicion is not proof. What is proven is that they keep attacking the technology, Jim’s writing style, and Francis personally while avoiding the public documents under discussion.
And here is the question they still will not answer:
Why doesn’t the City of Claremont release the requested RSA 91-A records?
Producing public records does not prove innocence or guilt; it demonstrates compliance with New Hampshire law and respect for the taxpayers who own those records. If officials believe the reporting is wrong, release the documents and let everyone examine them.
Instead, anonymous critics are proposing bedroom cartoons. Apparently, when the cupboard is bare, vulgarity becomes the main course.
More records are being examined. More questions are coming. If City Hall wants fewer suspicions, it should provide more sunlight.
Biblical principle: People who act properly need not fear examination. “For every one that doeth evil hateth the light… But he that doeth truth cometh to the light.” —John 3:20–21. Release the records and let the truth speak.
Employee number three hoodwink (Monday, August 24 26 11:14 am EDT)
Well, “AI Fan Boy Government Employee #3,” let us straighten out a few things.
First, it is ChatGPT, not “Chat CPT.” That is a small but rather entertaining mistake from someone delivering a lecture about proofreading.
Second, you have no evidence that anything was posted “unedited.” You do not know how the material was researched, drafted, checked, revised, or approved. You simply declared the process dishonest because you dislike the tool. That is an accusation—not proof.
AI does not independently publish articles on The Sullivan Report. A human chooses the subject, supplies the records, directs the research, evaluates the output, corrects errors, and accepts responsibility for the finished work. Using modern software to assist writing is no more dishonest than using spell-check, a calculator, a search engine, or a computer instead of pounding the story out on an Underwood typewriter.
Plagiarism means presenting someone else’s protected words or work as your own. It does not mean using a tool to organize original commentary based on public records. If you believe something was plagiarized, identify the original source and the copied passage. Bring a receipt. Otherwise, you are tossing around a serious word you apparently do not understand.
The funniest part is that you admit AI is “a good research tool” while condemning people for using it. Apparently, technology is acceptable until it helps citizens examine government records faster and ask harder questions.
If an article contains a factual error, name it. Quote it. Correct it with evidence. That would contribute something useful.
But hiding behind a cartoon username, misspelling the tool’s name, and calling its users dishonest is hardly the master class in journalism you imagine it to be.
Who has really been hoodwinked, my friend?
ai fan boy gov employee #3 (Monday, August 24 26 09:50 am EDT)
“Francis told me that he uses Chat CPT Work Open AI” do you even read what you write? The use of ai is lazy. Yes it’s a good research tool but to post unedited and copy and paste crap generated by Ai is just plain dishonest. You don’t even know what you are defending, you’ve been hoodwinked my friend.
You’re a tool (Sunday, August 23 26 10:16 pm EDT)
I hate the “AI is a tool” argument to further the idea that you don’t need to use your brain or check your work. A lightbulb is a tool but if you put it up your butt it isn’t very useful…
In the style of Norman Rockwell and the Bible of course (Sunday, August 23 26 10:14 pm EDT)
Can someone make an AI generated cartoon of Francis and Jim in bed with a computer running chatgpt? Maybe lots of foia requests tacked on the wall and red threads linking them together.
Also knowing Jim uses text to speech makes his unique writing style make sense. Is that why there are lots of typos?
Three attacks no receipts (Sunday, August 23 26 08:46 pm EDT)
THREE ATTACKS, MINUTES APART—BUT STILL NO RECEIPTS
Steve raises a fair question. Three hostile comments appeared within roughly twenty minutes, all repeating the same accusations about AI, plagiarism, and The Sullivan Report.
Does that prove they came from one person or people connected to Claremont government or the school system? No. But the timing, similar message, and anonymous names certainly make coordinated opposition worth considering—especially when “City Employee #5” openly presents himself as a government employee.
More important is what these comments carefully avoid: the substance of the reporting.
They identify no supposedly plagiarized source. They document no fabricated quotation. They correct no specific financial figure, public record, meeting statement, contract, audit finding, or Right-to-Know document. One commenter vaguely alleges “several mistakes” but does not name even one. That is not fact-checking. It is heckling from the cheap seats.
AI is a tool. It can organize research, compare records, improve grammar, and turn a pile of government paperwork into something ordinary citizens can understand. A calculator does not invalidate an accountant’s work, and a word processor does not make a journalist dishonest. The real questions are whether the underlying evidence is genuine, the claims are accurate, and a human takes responsibility for the finished publication.
If Jim Sullivan or Francis Gauthier publishes a factual error, bring the receipt and demand a correction. That is legitimate. But shouting “AI slop” and “plagiarism” without evidence merely changes the subject from what City Hall and SAU 6 would rather not discuss.
Perhaps that is the real discomfort. Public records that once sat unnoticed can now be examined, organized, and explained far more efficiently. The flashlight has grown brighter—and some people appear more interested in smashing it than answering what it reveals.
Dislike the writing style if you wish. But facts do not become false because technology helped present them.
Steve (Sunday, August 23 26 07:59 pm EDT)
I noticed that the last three comments were all made a few minutes apart Probably all written by the same person. Government leaders don't like AI technology, because it is too good It makes things hotter for them

AI THE TOOL (Saturday, August 22 26 08:32 am EDT)
AI IS A TOOL—NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A HUMAN MIND
“Have we lost the ability to research and write our own stories?”
No. We have gained a powerful new set of tools.
A calculator did not destroy mathematics. Power tools did not abolish craftsmanship. The camera did not eliminate painting, and the tractor did not make the farmer unnecessary. Each invention allowed capable people to accomplish more in less time.
Artificial intelligence works the same way.
AI can search enormous collections of information, compare competing claims, organize scattered records, identify contradictions, improve grammar, translate languages, restore old photographs, and create illustrations for ideas that no existing photograph can capture. A citizen journalist working at his kitchen table can now perform tasks that once required a research staff, an editor, a graphic artist, and a sizable budget.
The human being must still provide the purpose, judgment, experience, moral compass, and final decision. AI can assemble evidence; it cannot supply integrity. It can propose words; it cannot make them true. A lazy person may use AI to produce polished nonsense. A serious person can use it to investigate deeper, communicate better, and compete with institutions possessing far greater resources.
That distinction matters.
AI is shaping up to become the next industrial revolution. Nations that master it will gain advantages in manufacturing, medicine, defense, energy, agriculture, logistics, education, and scientific research. Nations that reject it because it feels unfamiliar will buy the resulting technology from nations that did not hesitate.
If the United States intends to remain ahead of China and its other rivals, Americans must develop AI, control its critical infrastructure, protect constitutional liberties, and teach citizens how to use it responsibly. We should not surrender human judgment to a machine—but neither should we surrender the machine to our adversaries.
The printing press gave ordinary people access to ideas. The internet gave them access to information. AI gives them the ability to analyze, organize, and present that information on a scale previously reserved for powerful institutions.
That is not the death of independent thought. Used properly, it is independent thought with a bigger toolbox.

Jon Stone, this is your moment. (Friday, August 21 26 09:40 am EDT)
You want support in Claremont? Then step up and show people where you stand.
Do you back Claremont Motorsports Park 100 percent, or are you going to stand on the sidelines while Cogswell, Irish and “Ding-Dong” Greenrose pile another load of City Hall nonsense onto a local business?
Francis Gauthier has been chasing these RSA 91-A records all summer. More than one formal request. City Hall admits the Speedway communications exist in its computer system, and Greenrose publicly said a substantial packet was assembled and delivered to the Licensing Board.
So where the hell is it?
Help get those records released, Jon. Let the public see who complained, what was said, what the Licensing Board received and how much of this heavy-handed ordinance is based on real problems—as opposed to bruised egos over a wrestling show.
This is an easy test. Either you stand with the Speedway, open government and Claremont taxpayers, or you let City Hall keep playing hide-and-seek with public records while it builds this bullshit ordinance behind closed doors.
People are watching. Step forward, take a position and help drag these records into the daylight. You could earn considerable support in Claremont by doing the right thing when it actually counts.

Wondering who the superintendent was?
!!PSA!!
Please read! I wouldn’t normally post something like this, but we are running out of options and given some recent events I think the word needs to get out in order to protect our children..The current varsity boys soccer coach at Prospect Mountain High School has purchased alcohol for players (one was our son). This happened at a soccer event where his club was playing out of state. Why a older male would want to hang out with teenage boys while they are drinking alcohol he provided is more than disturbing..this has been confirmed by several of the players since.. there are MANY other things associated and all of these things have been escalated to the school board and super who have chosen to hire this coach back for the fall season.. they are currently paying a lawyer to defend them against all of this (that’s how I want my tax dollars spent).. if anyone/everyone could share this, I would appreciate it. The word needs to get out to parents, but the moderator of the community page is part of the problem. Sweeping real issues under the rug. Feel free to reach out with any questions
Hey Jon Stone (Friday, August 21 26 08:47 am EDT)
THE RECORDS EXIST—SO WHY CAN’T THE PUBLIC SEE THEM?
All summer, I have pursued records concerning the licensing of Claremont Motorsports Park through more than one formal Right-to-Know request under New Hampshire RSA 91-A.
Councilor Greenrose stated during a City Council meeting that the city received a substantial volume of communications from residents and others. Those records were reportedly assembled into a packet and sent to the Licensing Board.
City Hall has also acknowledged that the requested records exist within its computer system.
That settles the first question: the records exist.
The question now is why the city still has not produced them.
RSA 91-A does not permit City Hall to bury a citizen beneath an endless chain of excuses. If any particular record is legally exempt, the city should identify the record and state the legal basis for withholding it. The proper response is not silence, indefinite delay or bureaucratic runaround.
Based upon the city’s acknowledged possession of these records and its continued failure to produce them, I believe Claremont City Hall is violating New Hampshire’s Right-to-Know Law.
Meanwhile, Councilors Chris Irish and Chris Cogswell appear ready to impose a heavy-handed ordinance upon the Speedway, partly because of a wrestling attraction that supposedly demonstrated insufficient “respect” for City Hall.
Government does not earn respect by withholding public records. It earns respect by obeying the law and conducting public business in daylight.
I am also calling upon Jon Stone to step forward and help press for the preservation and release of these RSA 91-A records. Anyone seeking to represent Claremont should stand beside citizens when their lawful requests for government records are frustrated.
Release the packet. Release the communications, subject only to lawful and properly explained redactions. Let taxpayers see what was said, what the Licensing Board received and whether city officials have accurately represented public opinion.
Public records belong to the public. City Hall is only their custodian.

CLAREMONT’S GOVERNMENT MUST STEP INTO THE LIGHT (Friday, August 21 26 03:48 am EDT)
Peel back Claremont’s public records and an ugly pattern emerges: questionable decisions, weak financial controls, delayed disclosures, inadequate management, and officials who too often appear unable—or unwilling—to provide straight answers.
That pattern creates a public perception of corruption even where criminal wrongdoing has not been proven. City government should treat that perception as a five-alarm warning, not dismiss it as “negativity.”
Claremont is reportedly paying its new city manager roughly $1,800 every week. Taxpayers deserve more than a name on official paperwork and an automatic signature. Right now, the public perception is that City Hall has hired a houseplant with an autopen: present in the office, perhaps, but largely invisible when leadership and accountability are required.
The city should put this manager’s competence on full public display. Let him explain the books, departmental failures, delayed records, spending priorities, internal controls, and his plan for correcting what has gone wrong. Hold a public forum. Take unscripted questions. Publish measurable goals and regular progress reports. If he is capable, transparency will demonstrate it. If he is not, taxpayers need to know before more damage is done.
For years, Claremont’s entrenched political class has seemed content to govern through back rooms, familiar alliances, and institutional silence. Meanwhile, its defenders blame watchdogs for reporting the smoke.
But The Sullivan Report did not pour the gasoline. Citizens asking questions did not strike the match. City Hall creates the danger whenever it conceals problems, tolerates incompetence, and treats public scrutiny as an enemy.
Sunlight will either restore confidence or confirm our concerns. Open the doors and let the taxpayers judge.
Molly is funny ? (Friday, August 21 26 03:29 am EDT)
Molly, demanding that a watchdog produce “something positive” before taking its reporting seriously is a convenient way to avoid discussing the evidence already on the table.
Jim Sullivan and Francis Gauthier invest in this community by attending meetings, reading public documents, submitting Right-to-Know requests, examining budgets, questioning officials, and giving citizens a public forum. That takes time, effort, and persistence. Civic investment does not require cutting ribbons or praising City Hall on command.
The Sullivan Report is not the Chamber of Commerce, the city’s publicity department, or a taxpayer-funded newsletter. Its job is not to manufacture a cheerful balance between good news and government failure. When public money disappears into poor accounting, projects go sideways, records are delayed, or highly paid administrators cannot provide clear answers, those matters deserve attention—even if the resulting headlines make people uncomfortable.
Calling that work “muckraking,” “axe grinding,” or “vindictive character attacks” does not answer a single document, invoice, audit finding, meeting record, or unanswered public question. If a particular report is false, identify the statement and bring the evidence. General insults are not a rebuttal.
Could every public commentator occasionally sharpen his tone or phrase something better? Certainly. But imperfect delivery does not make documented facts disappear. Rejecting important findings because one dislikes the messenger’s style is like ignoring a fire alarm because the bell is too loud.
You also admit that “important issues” have been raised. Then discuss those issues. Do not bury them beneath complaints that Jim and Francis have failed to provide enough civic cheerleading.
Accountability is positive. Exposing waste is positive. Defending taxpayers is positive. Insisting that government obey the law is positive. It may not feel pleasant to those being questioned, but public service was never supposed to come with immunity from scrutiny.
Bring receipts, challenge the facts, and join the debate. But asking watchdogs to wag their tails before they bark misses the entire purpose of having them.
Francine’s shit bucket (Friday, August 21 26 03:13 am EDT)
Francine’s comment makes sweeping accusations—“misinformation,” “personal vendettas,” “manufactured outrage”—but supplies no examples, documents, corrections, or evidence. Not one receipt.
The Sullivan Report does.
It publishes public records, meeting minutes, budgets, contracts, audits, Right-to-Know responses, official correspondence, and the public statements of government officials. Readers can examine that material and reach their own conclusions. That is not “manufactured outrage.” It is public accountability.
Francine argues that reporting government failures harms Claremont’s reputation. No. Mismanagement harms Claremont’s reputation. Questionable bookkeeping, inadequate oversight, unqualified leadership, delayed public records, wasteful spending, and officials who cannot—or will not—answer basic questions do the damage. Reporting those failures merely turns on the light.
If The Sullivan Report has published something factually wrong, identify the specific statement and produce the evidence correcting it. That would be a legitimate public discussion. Broad accusations without supporting evidence are nothing more than the very inflammatory rhetoric Francine claims to oppose.
Nor is criticism of public officials an attack on Claremont. Public employees and administrators are paid with public money. Their decisions affect taxes, schools, businesses, public safety, and the future of this city. They are not beyond questioning. A watchdog that never barks is just another pet of City Hall.
The Sullivan Report does not claim Claremont has no successes. It asks why taxpayers repeatedly discover serious problems only after money has been spent, records have been requested, or failures can no longer be concealed. If that makes certain officials uncomfortable, perhaps the problem is not the flashlight.
And one small point: the city is Claremont, not “Clermont.” If someone intends to lecture the community about responsible local journalism, getting the city’s name right would be a sensible place to begin.
Bring evidence. Name the alleged falsehood. Show the correction. Until then, attacking the messenger does not erase the documents.
Maggie (Thursday, August 20 26 06:32 pm EDT)
It has been brought to my attention that the city counselors think they paid for an indeed subscription and not a Linkden subscription. I asked some of them and they said it was indeed and then I saw a meeting where they all said it was an indeed subscription when in reality it was a Linkden subscription they bought.
If the city counselors can’t figure out what they paid thousands of dollars on to hire people I think they should be voted out. Nobody knows what they are doing and it shows because look at all our job postings. The job postings don’t even look professional when you compare them to other towns and cities.
Claremont is messed up and they would be better off just hiring anybody who applies for a position instead of waiting years to fill it have them quit in 2 months and wait years to fill it again. Just hire anyone and train them in basic things. Nobody wants to work for this city. The manager of Keene lives in Claremont and won’t take the job in Claremont even though it pays more. Keene Employees laugh at Claremont and Lebanon employees laugh at Claremont too while sending all the people they don’t want to Claremont with a 1 way ticket.
Francine (Thursday, August 20 26 03:31 pm EDT)
The Sullivan Report, helmed by Jim Sullivan, has officially crossed the line from local commentary into a destructive force that is actively tearing at the fabric of Clermont. What may have started as an attempt at alternative journalism has degenerated into a toxic cocktail of misinformation, personal vendettas, and manufactured outrage designed to divide our community.Rather than highlighting the genuine successes of Clermont or offering constructive criticism on local governance, Sullivan uses his platform to launch relentless, bad-faith attacks on small business owners, schools, and city officials. His sensationalized reporting relies heavily on cherry-picked facts and inflammatory headlines that seem engineered purely for clicks and outrage. This constant bombardment of negativity does nothing but poison local discourse, making it nearly impossible to have productive conversations about the city’s actual challenges.The real-world damage of this bitter rhetoric is obvious. It drives away potential investors, hurts our local economy by staining Clermont's reputation, and discourages well-meaning citizens from stepping into public service out of fear of becoming Sullivan's next target. Jim Sullivan is not saving Clermont; he is exhausting it. It is time for residents to see through the sensationalism and reject a platform that profits off the decline and division of our town.

There is a pretty significant irony in this post: the owner of this forum routinely does the very thing being condemned here.
You argue that insults about appearance, bodily functions, intelligence, and personal hatred are evidence that someone has “run out of facts.” On that point, we may actually agree. But that standard has to apply equally. This forum has repeatedly allowed—and at times actively participated in—personal attacks, ridicule, name-calling, speculation about people’s motives, and commentary aimed at embarrassing individuals rather than debating the actual issue.
You cannot build a forum around personal attacks and then suddenly declare personal attacks illegitimate when they are directed toward people you agree with.
The same goes for transparency. I fully support RSA 91-A and the public’s right to access government records. But there is an enormous difference between responsibly using Right-to-Know to obtain information and repeatedly flooding government with requests, then portraying the time it takes employees to research, review, redact, and produce those records as further evidence of wrongdoing. The right to request public records does not automatically make every accusation attached to those requests true.
And nobody is arguing that ribbon cuttings erase legitimate problems. The issue is the opposite: why are positive developments so often dismissed, minimized, questioned, or immediately redirected into another accusation? If Starbucks is coming, housing is being developed, private investment is occurring, and an event is projected to generate substantial economic activity, those things matter too. A fair discussion of Claremont should be capable of acknowledging successes and failures at the same time.
Calling yourself a “watchdog” does not automatically make the reporting objective. A watchdog should verify facts, correct errors, distinguish evidence from opinion, give people a meaningful opportunity to respond, and apply the same standards to allies and opponents.
And elected service does matter in this discussion. Losing an election certainly does not disgrace anyone or eliminate their right to participate. But when former elected officials repeatedly attack the people voters chose to replace them, their own records in office are also fair subjects for public examination. You cannot demand exhaustive accountability from current officials while treating the records of former officials as irrelevant.
Most importantly, if the standard you are proposing is documents, numbers, meeting records, facts, and competing conclusions instead of personal abuse, then great.
Apply it here too.
Apply it when the subject is someone you disagree with. Apply it when a post targets a city employee. Apply it when someone’s appearance, intelligence, family, business, motives, or personality becomes the punchline. Apply it when a claim favorable to your narrative turns out to be wrong.
A standard that only applies to the other side isn't a standard.
If this forum truly wants to be a credible watchdog, it should welcome that standard rather than merely invoke it when convenient.

Employment page on the website is crazy. How does the city even try to pretend to function.

Starbucks is not coming, apartments are being built for families so that just means more children in the school district making taxes go up, and there is no major event that will generate 1.5 million in revenue for the city.
A twist of Brett (Wednesday, August 19 26 09:45 am EDT)
Brett, when a man’s argument is built on insults about weight, bodily fluids, and personal hatred, it usually means the toolbox ran out of facts.
Nobody claims Claremont has nothing good happening. If Starbucks is coming, apartments are being developed, and a major event could generate $1.5 million in economic activity, then publish the documents and let the public examine the details. Good news deserves daylight too—but so do unpaid bills, delayed records, questionable spending, and government decisions made behind closed doors.
Francis and Jim served in elected office and were later voted out. That is called representative government, not personal disgrace. Public service does not end when a term ends. In fact, an independent citizen can sometimes accomplish more outside government because he no longer needs permission from party leaders, administrators, or political gatekeepers.
As for Right-to-Know requests, government records belong to the public. Officials are not doing citizens a favor by producing them; they are carrying out a legal duty under RSA 91-A. If ordinary requests bring City Hall to a standstill, the problem may be poor recordkeeping and inadequate transparency—not the citizen asking questions.
The Sullivan Report does not prevent anyone from living his life, opening a business, developing property, or praising Claremont. It simply refuses to pretend that ribbon cuttings erase mismanagement. A watchdog that only praises government is not a watchdog. It is a lapdog wearing a press badge.
Brett is welcome to present documents, numbers, meeting records, and competing conclusions. That could produce a worthwhile discussion. Personal abuse produces nothing except heat, smoke, and a strong suspicion that somebody struck a nerve.

City planner leaves no building inspector why even keep planning and development. More like planning to leave department. Only solid person left is Amanda and everyone know she deserves better than Claremont.
Brett (Wednesday, August 19 26 08:25 am EDT)
You will never find a single nice thing about Claremont on here. Everyone is lazy and dumb besides Jim and Francis. The 2 guys who were voted out of office after 1 pathetic term. Both are the type of person you don't want to be around as they shit on everything you do and tell you you are always wrong. Meanwhile the facts are people are still going about their lives.
You think Jim would publish the number of requests he sends the city? Think people resign because they cant actually do the job without stopping work to comply with yet another time wasting dumb request? It gets old.
Think Jim would tell you a Starbucks will be building on Washington Street? How about telling you Red Rivers former space sold for millions and will be 27 luxury apartments? In the city council packet Jim obtains each week he has the information that Team O'Neil met with city officials to hold a large scale event here influxing 1.5 million into the city economically. These are all things you will never learn from this fat little loser that has been a wining man his entire life.
He is like a parent that raises a kid killing their dreams and telling them not to bother being better because everyone owes you something and you should always shit on your friends and neighbors.
Drink Jim's piss water or actually seek out the real story. It has always been up to you.
You can take the guidance
Mental illness is curable (Wednesday, August 19 26 07:46 am EDT)
Claremont is Burning. A cat crossed the street without using the crosswalk, there is s streetlight out on Maple Ave, DPW refused to sweep the leaves off the track at Monadnock Park, there was a car with a flattire and so much more ....plus the owner of this blog still has never paid a nickel in taxes. Please Jimmy, save us all from this turmoil with your useless waste of your life that spends your entire existence telling everyone how important you are. Those IA comics are so clever, the author deserves to be in a mental ward. The intelligence of this site is overflowing with a pathetic smell of desperation.
Sites and sounds of Claremont for tourism (Wednesday, August 19 26 07:16 am EDT)
LOCAL RUMOR—ENTIRELY UNVERIFIED: Word drifting around Claremont claims that a passing motorist recently spotted two people in Broad Street Park engaged in what might politely be called an unscheduled outdoor recreational activity.
No names are known, no official report has surfaced, and this alleged eyewitness account should not be treated as established fact.
Still, perhaps City Hall has finally discovered an economic-development plan requiring neither another consultant nor a six-figure study. Curious tourists could pour into Claremont for the celebrated sights and sounds of Broad Street and Pleasant Street—filling restaurants, visiting shops and contributing revenue while wondering what spectacle might appear next.
The Chamber of Commerce could advertise weekend packages: “Come for the historic architecture. Stay because you cannot believe what is happening in the park.”
Every tourist attraction needs a memorable hook. Claremont may have found one—although tasteful landscaping and considerably stronger public-order enforcement would probably make a better long-term investment.
What’s review the week? (Wednesday, August 19 26 07:06 am EDT)
A WEEK AT THE SULLIVAN REPORT: CLAREMONT’S POT CONTINUES TO BOIL
Another week passed in Claremont, and once again The Sullivan Report discovered that lifting City Hall’s rug requires both strong arms and a willingness to meet whatever has been swept underneath.
Jim Sullivan published twelve new reports, with SAU 6 furnishing most of the kindling. Questions surrounded Superintendent Timothy Broadrick, teacher and coach Matt Kinson, political activist-turned-teacher Joshua Lambert, and the school district’s apparently bottomless barrel of stipends. If Claremont handed out competent explanations as readily as it once handed out extra compensation, Sullivan might have to take up fishing.
At City Hall, another Planning Department departure stirred speculation. Nobody seemed entirely certain who had left, who might be promoted, or who was minding the store. The public forum handled the uncertainty in traditional Claremont fashion: three rumors, two insults and somebody demanding a new sheriff.
Meanwhile, Pleasant Street returned to center stage. A business owner alleged that municipal workers feared maintaining the area because of the disorder gathering there. Broad Street Park received similar reviews. City officials have not publicly confirmed those claims, but the questions are fair: Are employees refusing assignments? Have threats been reported? What is the city’s enforcement plan?
The anonymous forum supplied its customary stew of useful tips, neighborhood gossip, political satire and verbal hand grenades. Nick Koloski was praised and roasted. Sullivan was defended and skewered. Facts occasionally arrived wearing muddy boots, while rumor came dressed for Sunday dinner.
That was the week: schools scrambling, City Hall shuffling, taxpayers asking questions—and The Sullivan Report standing nearby with a flashlight.

Claremont NH is becoming a mini Burlington for homeless and bad people hanging downtown. Soon the only option Claremont will have is foot patrols by state police and national guard. Move out of this city while you still can.
Victor (Tuesday, August 18 26 08:01 pm EDT)
Hey that’s just Sam and Allen. They used to sneak down the emergency 2nd floor staircase back in the day at Stevens and do some freaky really stuff with one another. I see that they have moved on to doing it in broad street park.

City employee quits today, more sau 6 resignations and 2 shops on pleasant street will be shutting there doors by the end of October. City council doesn’t care all they care about is how can we regulate the racetrack and bring less business to town.
Vincent (Tuesday, August 18 26 03:14 pm EDT)
The parking lot next to the American Legion on broad street has some weird stuff going on in it on a daily basis. I take a photo of what I see and make a scrapbook out of it.
