Perhaps the COVID-19 pandemic has taken its toll on the mental health of Granite Staters; perhaps our former president gave vent to a new level of conspiracy theories and the evils of a strong centralized government; perhaps people are having difficulty adjusting to the brave new world of the 21st century with its technology, social networks, artificial intelligence and globalization.

For whatever reason, the New Hampshire Legislature is off to a rough start this year thanks to a small number of anti-science non-maskers, free staters, conspiracy theorists, anti-Semites, racists and freedom fighters.
