By Ray Cardello for March 17, 2026, Season 34 / Post 36

I need to take a break from the mindless politics happening in Washington, D.C., and the Great State of Maine. I thank both of these locales and the Democratic Socialists who call them their workplace for supplying the conservative writers across the country with an endless supply of stories. I cannot wait to see what happens after Trump’s second term to see how your team does without Trump choreographing every move. It has been fun watching you try to keep up with Trump as he teaches a masterclass in how a businessman can navigate the minutiae in D.C. and get stuff done.

Back to the break. The Feedspot Top 80 Conservative Websites and Blogs for 2026 was announced today, and Conservative View From New Hampshire took the 56th ranking. I could not be prouder of how the persistence and consistency of our writing, along with the websites that have honored me by publishing my work daily, have put us in the company of some impressive and well-known syndicated authors like Ben Shapiro, Michelle Malkin, The National Review, Breitbart, the Daily Caller, and more. I am proud that while fighting cancer in 2025, having 10 surgeries and procedures, radiation treatments, and chemo, we did not skip a deadline or day of writing. That is how passionate I am about this project that started in 2021. I do not see an end in sight for the streak, and as long as politicians continue to betray our trust and do things detrimental to the well-being of this great country, I will keep turning out my daily opinion pieces.

Thank you for your support, especially to the loyal readers on The Grok, who usually have a lively discussion in the comments after each of my articles, Rich Mitchell of Conservative Daily News, and to my friend, Howard Polskin, of The Righting, who has published many of my nearly 2,000 articles, and wrote a feature article about my site. Thank you for letting me take a moment to self-promote my site. America is a great country, and we all won the lottery when we were born within its borders. The mainstream media has sold its soul, and it is up to us, the independent, conservative writers, to do our part to get the truth out to the public. I am proud to do my part.
