Joe Kelly Levasseur embodies everything wrong with Manchester politics: a parasitic presence draining taxpayer dollars and bullying anyone standing in his way. As his house of cards collapses, he attempts to gaslight our city into believing his resignation as chairman of the board of mayor and aldermen represented some noble stand.

The question remains: Can we prioritize the well-being of our children, or will we allow influential figures and organizations to dictate our future and impose globalism? It is crucial that we set aside our minor disagreements to effectively confront the threat of globalism. True freedom is not free, and we must move beyond the left versus right narrative.

The Guinness Book is full of lunatics chasing immortality.

Men who dunk their heads for apples until their lungs give out. Women who crochet scarves so long they could strangle Rhode Island.

NH citizens need to step up to fill open roles. If you know people in Manchester – ask them if they are in Wards 4, 5, 11 or 12 and suggest they and their friends sign up to be a poll worker. The same for Rochester Ward 5.

Our community is better with art. Manchester Citywide Arts Festival, which begins this Sunday with a kick-off event at the Currier, celebrates the thriving cultural heart of our hometown.
