Talk about a hunting lodge for rich weirdoes, who apparently thought bringing over Eurasian #FeralHogs was a good idea?!!!
#Millionaires' Hunt Club
December 29, 2016"From my very first days as a reporter in #NewHampshire, I started to hear about a place hidden up in the woods of New Hampshire. A place full of unfamiliar animals from other places, but fenced off from the rest of the state, and kept quiet. I never heard about it directly — it was always through a guy who knew a guy, who had been inside — but the more I heard about the place, the more unbelievable it seemed.
"This massive, private park was called a 'millionaires hunt club' and 'the most exclusive #GamePreserve in the United States' and yet there were many people I know who had lived their entire lives in this state, but had never heard of it. So what is the secret of what’s behind that 26-mile fence cutting through the woods of New Hampshire, and why do some people work so hard to keep it a mystery?
"Officially it’s called the #BlueMountainForestAssociation, but everybody who knows about it calls it #CorbinPark. (Seemingly shortened from Corbin’s Park… we’ll get to the origin of the name.) It’s near the border with #Vermont and it’s huge, though its exact size seems to be something of a mystery. Regardless, at somewhere between 24,000 and 26,000 acres this park is actually bigger than something like 60 percent of New Hampshire towns.
"You can find the chain-link fence that encircles the entirety of the park at the end of any number of long rough dirt roads that lead to locked gates. It feels almost like like stumbling across a military base full of UFOs or some similar secret. The fence itself looks sturdy, if slightly weather-worn, and at regular intervals features small signs reprinted hundreds of times, 'the enclosed park fence and signs are protected by a special law of this state and any person trespassing herein or in any way violating that law will be prosecuted.'
"I got my introduction to the park from a man named Brian Meyette, a retired database administrator, who lives in an off-the-grid home, right next to the fence. 'In the fall it’s cool, because you get elk bugling in here,' he said as we walked down his icy driveway, 'I actually even came down here once because I could hear one and it sounded like he was bugling just inside the fence.'
"Elk, in case you didn’t know, are a Western thing. We don’t have them in New Hampshire. Except on the other side of this fence. And that’s not the only thing that’s over there.
" 'Any time people come up here to work or anything, they always say, ‘oh did you see the pigs?’ said Brian, laughing. When he says pigs, he’s referring to Eurasian #WildBoar, imported from Germany into New Hampshire. 'And no,' Brian continued, 'normally you come down here and it’s just you see a bunch of trees, that’s all you ever see.”
"But while you might not see them, there are elk bugling and Eurasian wild boars hustling around behind those fences.
"But why?
"The trouble with finding the answer to that question is that no one inside of Corbin's Park wants to talk about it. Corbin’s Park is a member’s only club. If you are a reporter, and identify yourself as such, not only do the employees of the park not want to talk to you, but the members don't want to talk to you, the people they have invited as guests don't want to talk to you, even some regular folks in town don't want to talk to you."

Will #DomesticTerrorism charges be brought against these #AntiICE #protestors?
#ICE enforcement action leads to #protest, violent clashes in #SouthBurlington, #Vermont
by Derek Brouwer, Liam Elder-Connors, Zoe McDonald, March 12, 2026
"A tense, day-long standoff outside a South Burlington, Vermont house ended Wednesday night with federal immigration agents removing three people inside and a series of violent clashes between police and hundreds of #activists who tried to impede the apprehension.
"It marked the first major confrontation between protesters and federal immigration authorities in Vermont. Federal law enforcement deployed #TearGas and #flashbangs on a normally busy street in the state’s second largest city to disperse the activists who had surrounded their vehicles. Roughly 60 local and state law enforcement officers were also on scene, though the departments sought to distance themselves from ICE’s conduct.
"The incident began when a man fled Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who had been surveilling a Dorset Street residence where he was staying.
"According to an ICE affidavit, the subject of the warrant was Deyvi Daniel Corona-Sanchez, a Mexico native who was removed from the United States in 2022, and later illegally reentered the country. In January, Corona-Sanchez was arrested by Middlebury police and charged with drunk driving, the affidavit says.
"Following a multi-vehicle crash, Corona-Sanchez escaped to a house on Dorset Street, authorities said.
"A growing number of protesters and police assembled outside throughout the day as immigration authorities waited for a criminal warrant to enter and arrest him.
"A neighbor, Richard Landsman, said an Ecuadoran family with two children had lived in the house for roughly a year. At one point in the afternoon, people helped a child leave the house; they were driven away.
"When the warrant came through after roughly nine hours, federal agents approached the front door with #TacticalGear and weapons drawn. They were supported by #VermontStatePolice troopers.
"Police wrenched away protesters blocking the front entrance and ICE agents broke down the door. Federal agents removed three people from inside, forcing them into an unmarked car. They attempted to drive off, but protesters linked arms and blocked the street. Confrontations ensued, and the agents eventually managed to drive off by running over a median and exiting via a driveway."

US #EPA - #SoakUpTheRain Program for #NewEngland: #RainBarrels
Last updated on January 13, 2026
"Rain barrels capture water from a roof and hold it for later use such as on lawns, gardens or indoor plants. Collecting roof runoff in rain barrels reduces the amount of water that flows from your property. It's a great way to conserve water and it's free water for use in your landscape.
Many cities and towns distribute rain barrels to residents through annual sales. Other sources include online retailers, local home and garden supply stores. Cisterns are also used to 'harvest' rain water. With a greater storage capacity they may be located above or below ground.
#RainwaterHarvesting, U.S. EPA Green Infrastructure
Note: Remember that as rain water flows over a roof surface it can pick up pollutants such as bacteria from birds and other animals, and chemicals from roof materials - factors to consider when thinking about using rain barrel water on edible plantings.

Here’s where #Vermont shelters are opening to help in #extremeCold
We made a map of shelter locations with information on how to use them.
by Carly Berlin January 22, 2026, 5:05 pm
This story, by Report for America corps member Carly Berlin, was produced through a partnership between #VTDigger and #VermontPublic.
Updated on Jan. 23 at 4:38 p.m.
"With subzero temperatures expected to set in on Friday, communities across Vermont are opening emergency shelters for people experiencing homelessness.
VTDigger/Vermont Public confirmed that nine extreme cold weather shelter locations will be open over the weekend. Most are part of a state-funded network of overflow shelters that activate when temperatures fall into the negatives as an attempt to save lives. You can find information on how to access those shelters below.
Other communities may open more informal shelters, too. Vermont Emergency Management suggests calling your town office to ask about local warming centers or to call 2-1-1 to find a facility near you.
#BenningtonVTBennington’s extreme cold shelter is located at 200 Pleasant St., at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church.
It will be operating on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights, according to Roxanne Carelli, executive director of operational development and shelter services at Bennington County Coalition for the Homeless.
The shelter will be open from 6:30 p.m. to 7 a.m. each night.
The space has capacity for 35 people.
Adults, families, and unaccompanied minors are allowed, according to Carelli. Sex offenders will not be admitted. Well-behaved pets will be allowed.
#BrattleboroVTBrattleboro’s extreme cold shelter is located at the Beloved Community church at 18 Town Crier Dr.
The shelter typically operates Sunday through Thursday nights throughout the winter. It will activate on Friday and Saturday night this week for the cold snap, according to Rick DeAngelis, a project officer with Vermont Interfaith Action, the organization that oversees the cold weather shelters.
The shelter will be open from 8 p.m. to 7 a.m.
It has space for 15 people.
Only adults are allowed, and pets must be registered as service animals to be admitted, DeAngelis said.
#BurlingtonVTBurlington’s extreme cold shelter is located at the Miller Center in the city’s New North End neighborhood, at 130 Gosse Court.
The shelter will open for four consecutive nights – Friday night through Monday night – according to a press release from Burlington Mayor Emma Mulvaney-Stanak.
The shelter will open at 5 p.m. and close at 8 a.m. each day. It has a capacity for 100 people.
Only adults will be admitted, and pets are allowed. Transportation will be provided from several locations in the city’s core to the shelter: 95 North Ave. (COTS Daystation), 228 N. Winooski Ave. (Champlain Valley Office of Economic Opportunity’s Community Resource Center) and the Fletcher Free Library.
#MontpelierVTMontpelier’s extreme cold shelter is located inside City Hall at 39 Main St.
The shelter will open tonight (Thursday, 1/22) according to Montpelier Emergency Cold Weather Shelter’s website. Shelter coordinator Andrea Stander said she intends to keep the shelter open Friday and Saturday if volunteer staffing allows.
This shelter uses a higher threshold – 10 degrees – to open. That means Stander is eyeing remaining open throughout the coming week, she said.
The shelter opens at 8 p.m. and closes at 8 a.m.
Pets are not allowed at this shelter. There’s space for 15 people.
#BarreVTBarre’s extreme cold shelter is located at the Barre Congregational Church at 35 Church St.

Hype for the Future 20A: Vershire, Vermont
Vershire, Vermont, located in the east-central part of the State of Vermont, is home to the VerShare collective project and hostel, though restaurants are very scarce in the surrounding region and the terrain may also be hostile for agricultural or even the safer horticultural practices.

#Maine among dozens of states suing #Trump administration over #SNAP funding
by Russ Reed, October 30, 2025
AUGUSTA, Maine — "Maine's attorney general is part of a coalition that sued the Trump administration for suspending the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program due to the ongoing federal government shutdown.
"In their lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Agriculture, U.S. Office of Management and Budget and their respective secretaries, 23 attorneys general and three governors claim the USDA does not have the authority to suspend SNAP.
" 'Forty-two million Americans, including 169,000 Mainers, are going to go hungry this Thanksgiving because the Administration is simply refusing to use the billions available to prevent this,' Maine Attorney General Aaron Frey said in a statement. 'It is unconscionably cruel and unlawful.'
"The coalition suing the Trump administration said that on Oct. 10, the USDA sent a letter to state SNAP agencies saying there will be insufficient funds to pay full November SNAP benefits if the government shutdown continues.
"According to the coalition, the USDA has access to billions of dollars in SNAP-specific contingency funds appropriated by Congress in the event of a government shutdown. The coalition also claims the USDA has funded other programs with emergency funds during the shutdown, but has refused to fund SNAP.
"The Maine Department of Health and Human Services (#DHHS) announced on Oct. 21 it would not receive November's SNAP funding.
"According to Maine DHHS, nearly 12.5% of the state's population receives SNAP benefits. State health officials also said the rate approaches or surpasses 20% in five of Maine's 16 counties: #Androscoggin, #Aroostook, #Piscataquis, #Somerset and #Washington.
"Maine DHHS also said nearly 75% of the state's SNAP households include at least one working adult, more than half include a person with a disability, 43% include an older adult and more than one-third include children. The average monthly SNAP benefit for a family of four in Maine is $572, according to DHHS.
"Maine DHHS shared the following information for the state's SNAP recipients:
- November's federal SNAP benefits cannot be issued until the government shutdown ends or until new guidance is provided by the USDA's Food and Nutrition Service.
- At this time, SNAP benefits already loaded onto EBT cards remain available for use to purchase food.
- Applications, renewals and other updates continue to be accepted and processed by Maine DHHS during the federal government shutdown.
- SNAP recipients are encouraged to sign up for e-noticing through My Maine Connection, which provides the fastest access to updates and notifications.
- Recipients should ensure that contact information, such as their phone number and mailing address, remains current with Maine DHHS.
"For help finding information on other available resources, call 211 or text your ZIP code to 898-211. You can also visit 211Maine.org. When the government shutdown ends, more information will be available about the future of federal SNAP benefits.
"Maine DHHS will share updates as soon as additional information becomes available."Joining Frey in the lawsuit are the attorneys general of #Arizona, #California, #Colorado, #Connecticut, #Delaware, the #DistrictOfColumbia, #Hawaii, #Illinois, #Maryland, #Massachusetts, #Michigan, #Minnesota, #Nevada, #NewJersey, #NewMexico, #NewYork, #NorthCarolina, #Oregon, #RhodeIsland, #Vermont, #WashingtonState and #Wisconsin. The governors of #Kansas, #Kentucky and #Pennsylvania are also part of the lawsuit."

lol back in 2022 both Steve Bannon and Steven Cheung (the trump spokesman whose corporeal form resembles the monstrous outcome of an experiment with an ogre and a donut gone terribly wrong) worked on #BrockPierce's senatorial campaign.
Brock Pierce, for those who remember, was the co-founder of one of the most infamous fully confirmed hollywood pedophile rings in US history and was arrested in Marbella in a house full of guns and child pornography prior to becoming a crypto evangelist. he co-founded #Tether, a massive crypto fraud called #EOS, blockchain capital (current owners of #Bluesky) and so much more. he's also tight with #Netanyahu's son Yair.
