For Ourselves and Our Posterity…

Live Woke or Die? New Hampshire stands apart from her sister states of New England, as the land that prioritizes the protection of individual liberty. At least, that is her reputation. Do not get too comfortable in the “live free or die” state though, for the woke cancel culture beast does dwell in the New Hampshire statehouse, and this past Columbus Day they/them has reared its hateful head and come for a heroine of New England legend; Hannah Duston. Hannah Duston was a resident of Haverhill, in the Massachusetts Bay Colony during the spring of 1697, when a war party of the Abenaki Indians came to call, slaughtering 27 men, women, and children. Hannah and her newborn baby were taken as slaves, but her child did not survive the brutality of their kidnappers. According to the legend documented by famed New England revivalist Cotton Mather, one night on a small island in the Merrimack River, located in the present day village of Boscawen, New Hampshire, Hannah slaughtered ten of her captors with a tomahawk, and took their scalps back to the General Assembly of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. These were the just actions of a heroic woman, a vengeful mother, and a colonial patriot. Hannah’s courage, and the indomitable spirit of our colonial New England women, deserves to be honored by all New Englanders until the ending of this world. With this intent, in the year 1874 the State of New Hampshire erected a statue to Hannah on the site where she fought for her freedom. Who has come for Hannah centuries after her passing? Prosperity begets soft men, and we know that those who come for her now could never measure up and survive the ordeal of captivity that she did, not even supposed Ironman triathletes. “Representative” Dave Nagel, the Republican allegedly representing Gilmanton, Gilford, and Laconia has told the Boston Globe that he is “appalled”, and feels that we should be “very ashamed” of this part of our history. He is filing legislation to either destroy Hannah’s monument, or remove it from the historic location. Why, Mr. Nagel? Do you find it shameful for a woman to defend herself from savage murderers and slavers? Do we not enjoy a fundamental right of self-defense in the state of New Hampshire? How can New Hampshire residents expect you to defend our liberty in Concord, when you are distraught by our ancestors defending their very lives on the frontier of colonial New England? It is quite telling that it was the Globe Mr. Nagel chose to lodge his remarks with. New Hampshire has a specific attitude towards the modern colonialism coming out of Boston. Take heart, New Hampshire. Various representatives have already announced their opposition to Mr. Nagel’s endeavor, and it has been confirmed to us that Hannah’s monument and memory will be fought for. We are confident that Mr. Nagel’s insulting bill shall be defeated. The men and women of The New England National Party do hereby formally condemn Mr. Nagel’s remarks denigrating our sacred history, and we request his apology to the state of New Hampshire, and all the people of New England, past, present, and future. Let’s keep Hannah Duston where she is, and send Dave Nagel packing. - The New England National Party

By Rev. Jake Dell In an era of spiritual awakening, young American men—particularly those of heritage stock—are increasingly drawn to ancient Christian traditions. Amidst the chaos of woke ideology and cultural decay, many seek refuge in the ornate liturgies of Eastern Orthodoxy or the structured hierarchies of Roman Catholicism. These paths offer timeless rituals, unyielding doctrines, and a rejection of modern progressivism, symbolized by churches free of rainbow flags. Yet, as a pastor rooted in New England's historic soil, I argue that the most authentic and attractive faith for these men lies not in imported traditions, but in the home-grown American Protestantism of our fathers, as discussed in my recent interview on The SCIF with L. Todd Wood . This tradition is woven into the fabric of America itself. Born from the Puritan settlers who braved the Atlantic in the 17th century, it embodies the pioneer spirit that founded towns like Woodbury, Connecticut, in 1659. These early congregations were not mere religious outposts; they were ecclesiastical societies that chartered communities, taxed for church upkeep, and educated children in biblical truth. Churches like the First Congregational in Woodbury, with its 1818 meeting house, stand as living monuments to a faith that seeded liberty and self-governance. From the Great Awakening revivals of Jonathan Edwards to the abolitionist fervor of the 19th century, this Protestantism fueled America's moral compass, emphasizing personal encounter with God through Scripture over mediated rituals. Why should young heritage-American men prefer this over Orthodoxy or Catholicism? First, it's native to our land. Orthodoxy, with its Byzantine icons and Slavic chants, thrives in Greece or Russia but feels foreign in the cradle of American liberty. Catholicism, while influential through later immigration, carries the baggage of papal authority and historical entanglements with European monarchies—elements at odds with our republican ethos. American Protestantism, by contrast, is the faith of the Mayflower Compact, where believers covenanted directly with God and one another, fostering individualism and communal responsibility without intermediaries. Moreover, it aligns with the masculine virtues young men crave: boldness, self-reliance, and action. Protestantism's emphasis on sola scriptura—Scripture alone—empowers men to read God's word themselves, without needing priestly interpretation. It's a faith for builders, not mere preservers; one that demands reclaiming hijacked institutions from progressive "wolves" who wave flags of compromise. The appeal of ancient traditions is understandable in a deracinated age, but importing them risks further cultural alienation. Instead, imagine revitalizing a colonial church: stripping away liberal accretions, preaching unvarnished truth, and forging communities that echo our ancestors' resilience. This is no retreat—it's a noble conquest—like the New England wilderness of old. As tides turn against wokeness, per divine providence, young men can pour gas on the revival by restoring these bastions. In Connecticut, where revival stirs anew, churches like mine welcome sinners to a straightforward faith: yes means yes, no means no. It's time to make American Protestantism great again—not through novelty, but fidelity to our heritage. Young men, your fathers' God calls you home. The Rev. Jake Dell, pastor of First Congregational Church of Woodbury, Connecticut, is a former Episcopal priest and Yale College graduate.

The Fairfield Firebrand: Melissa Longo by Adam Hart I have previously expounded upon the political quagmire that is the Republican Town Committee (RTC) system in Connecticut in my March 2025 article for The Centinal, “The RTC Trap”. Now in the aftermath of the horrific Charlie Kirk assassination, the corruption of those bodies throughout Connecticut has emerged plainly into the light of day. The pitiful creature that calls itself the Republican Party in Connecticut has mustered the energy to crawl out of the damp dungeon it jealously guards, and now weakly attempts to corral the righteous anger that has bubbled up from the depths of the hearts of American patriots. I am speaking generally about the response to recent events by the CT GOP, but I am also speaking specifically about the commotion caused by Fairfield RTC member Melissa Longo. I had the pleasure of speaking directly with Melissa soon after the whirlwind began over her online remarks pertaining to the assassination. This was a courtesy not afforded to legacy media until just recently, and with good reason, as the reputation of most journalists has been irreparably tarnished by the work of the various left wing smear merchants that populate the profession. Every honest observer of politics knows that the left perfected their art of character assassination long before they mastered agitating young liberals into murderous rage. In this article, I shall elaborate on Melissa’s recent experiences in Fairfield, and why American patriots should not be seeking “unity” in these troubling times. In Melissa’s social media posts, she excoriated the left, and bluntly stated that Democrats are “Faithless, God hating, evil, vile people”. Strong words for sure, but unless you are completely dishonest with yourself, you know that this is language that average conservative Republicans have been using among themselves for decades now. These things are not typically discussed publicly, and are avoided with dread and trepidation at the Thanksgiving dinner table, while American patriots are forced to scream in the soundproof room of their souls about all the evil we see in this world. Ironically in this modern age of everyone having their own truth, and every bizarre and deviant form of “self-expression” being treated as valid by the mainstream culture, American patriots are denied their voice about anything that really matters. It’s a free country. As long as you don't have anything of consequence to say. Fairfield RTC Chair Laura Devlin wants those thanksgiving dinners to go smoothly. “Free speech is one thing, hate speech is something else” according to Mrs. Devlin in her comments to News 12, and she has used her position to condemn Melissa, and even vastly overstepped her authority by removing her from the RTC web page as a candidate. This is the typical stale old Republican unity rhetoric, which we saw here in Connecticut before Charlie’s blood was even cold, and the offering of a sacrifice to assuage Democrat vitriol and hate. Devlin fears that strong rhetoric will harm Republican candidates in the elections in Fairfield, by diminishing their chances to draw Democrat voters away from their party. Well I have some uncomfortable truth to share with Mrs. Devlin, for as Charlie Kirk would patiently explain to her, there is no such thing as “hate speech”. This is why Democrats are free to sling about the most egregious slander imaginable, regularly accusing every American who has political or religious beliefs to the right of Lenin as being a racist, fascist, nazi, white supremacist, etc. etc. In our current age of media manipulation and duplicitous politicians, freedom of speech is one of the last honest defenses we have in our society. The 1st amendment ensures legal protection, so that people can tell us who they truly are, and I for one, value that. We have seen that the American people value straight talk above all else with the election of President Trump, who disregards all the focus groups, and tells people exactly what is on his mind. Honesty is an American value, and as Melissa Longo has correctly noted, it resonates with the base when they know they have a genuine champion, not just an inoffensively packaged negotiator representing them. Has the Democrat party ever disavowed their radicals? Surely, they must do so if they want to secure a super majority in the Connecticut legislature, right? Yeah. We have heard exactly zero members of the Democrat Party denouncing the blood lust of their radicals, as they have the advantage of a complicit Republican party which quite literally lets them get away with murder. Democrats are happy to decry political violence “from both sides”, knowing full well that right wing political violence is so non existent in America, that they must resort to enlisting the FBI to literally manufacture it, like they did on January 6th, and in the great Gretchin Whitmer kidnapping hoax. As a right-wing political activist myself, I can confirm that it is a monumental task just convincing Republicans to vote, so the chances of any of them ever being radicalized and convinced to conduct assassinations are virtually zero. Republicans like Chairwoman Devlin do not live in the current reality that the rest of us do. They still live with childish ignorance in the picture perfect Pax Americana of the 1990s, when not that much separated Democrats and Republicans, save some differing opinions on what was the best direction for the country. It is the year 2025, and the political divide is now incomprehensibly vast. Ordinary American patriots love their country, and are struggling to raise their families in peace, while the radical left insists our very blood is evil, our history is wicked, our skin color is oppressive, and the land we call home is stolen from people better than us. Mrs. Devlin, and many in the CT GOP do not know what time it is. That’s enough about our feckless Republican Party. Let’s get back to Melissa and her “hate speech”. Generally speaking, when leftists accuse someone of hate speech, what they mean is true speech. We can simply examine Melissa’s statement, and see if any of it was in error. Now does anyone remember the response Kamala Harris gave when some attendees shouted out “Jesus is Lord” at her event? “Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally” was the then Vice President’s response to those young men. Kamala Harris did not win the election, and now the Vice Presidency is held by a man who does not pull punches when confronting the left and their media mouthpieces. There is a lesson to be learned there, but I think for our purposes today, the former Democrat presidential candidate’s opposition to The Lord Jesus Christ is the key take away. “Faithless and God hating” certainly seems to check out, and as we saw on September 10th, I think it’s fair to take things a step further, and add “violent and dangerous” to the adjectives describing modern Democrats. Like Vice President Vance, Melissa Longo also does not pull punches, and this is exactly why she retains the support of Fairfield residents and is now gaining the attention and loyalty of marginalized conservatives from across the state. In our conversation Melissa correctly gauged that “There are no Democrat votes to be gained” by sheepishly begging for unity from Democrats. Like an abuser who suddenly wants to be reasonable when the police arrive at a domestic dispute, Governor Lamont and the Democrats are droning on continuously about unity now, when it is their radical activists who are murdering our people. I will pass on unity with that, thank you. Your party created this beast, Governor Lamont, I suggest you rein it in yourself. Connecticut Republicans can likely expect more “divisive” rhetoric from Melissa Longo, as she confirmed that while she regretted the use of some vulgarity that set the Republican leadership to hand wringing, she has no intention of backing down and retracting her statements. This is the leadership of the RTC that has opted to toss her to the wolves, and is endeavoring to remove her from the body. They do not speak for the entirety of Fairfield Republicans. Melissa did say that she received support from the Connecticut GOP in her recent bid for state rep, so we shall see what the party leadership decides on her. Will they stand up and support a potential rising star for their flailing organization? Or will they pay tribute once more to the Godless beast that is strangling our state? Time will tell, but as for me and my house, we stand with Melissa Longo. No unity with the violent radical left. “They have healed the wound of my people lightly, saying, ‘Peace, peace’, when there is no peace.” - Jeremiah 6:14

Family Portraits in Ruins: Pink’s Testimony and the Wreckage of Divorce Culture Third-wave feminism spoke of smashing the patriarchy. The rallying cry promised freedom from oppressive structures, but what it often delivered — through shifts in divorce law, custody norms, and cultural messaging — was the smashing of families. One doesn’t need to read legal briefs or sociology papers to see the fallout. The most compelling testimony comes from the children themselves, and Pink’s 2001 hit Family Portrait is a raw, unfiltered cry from inside the ruins. The Father Hunger The central refrain of the song — “Daddy don’t leave” — is not political rhetoric, it’s a child’s desperate plea. Pink paints the picture of a young girl bargaining with her father: “I’ll be so much better… I won’t spill the milk at dinner.” This reveals the way children internalize divorce, carrying guilt and responsibility for adult dysfunction. Far from liberation, the absence of the father creates an existential wound, leaving the daughter to believe her worth is contingent on preventing abandonment. Maternal Chaos Pink also describes the mother’s breakdown — crying, yelling, fighting over money. The home is not a sanctuary but a battlefield: “It ain’t easy growing up in World War III.” The supposed empowerment of women through divorce often translates into instability for children. The song captures this chaos viscerally: the sound of breaking glass, the crying mother, the fractured sense of safety. Feminist liberation here does not look like strength but fragility passed down to the child. The Lost Patriarchal Order The haunting wish in the song is not for independence or freedom but for a restoration: “In our family portrait, we look pretty happy… let’s go back to that.” Pink’s nostalgia — even if it is “pretend” — reveals a deep cultural longing for structure, unity, and fatherhood. Ironically, while feminist discourse framed the patriarchal household as oppressive, the child inside that broken home dreams not of emancipation but of its return. Cultural Testimony This is why Family Portrait is more than a pop ballad. It’s an artifact of cultural truth. Children of divorce did not celebrate the dismantling of patriarchy — they mourned it. Their music, their stories, their broken pleas became evidence of what was lost. The feminist slogans shouted in the streets find their counterpoint in the whispers and cries of children who just wanted their dad to stay home. Conclusion Pink, an icon of rebellion and independence, did not sing this as theory. She sang it as lived pain. Her song is evidence that when fathers were written out of the home by cultural and legal revolutions, children paid the price. The family portrait — once the symbol of order and stability — became a museum piece of something children could only pretend to have.

As pride month comes to an end, the New England National Party is proud of its activists, and the various actions they took to promote Christian virtue, and stand against the toxic LGBT culture that has permeated the states of New England. This is only the beginning for our organization, and we look forward to leading the way, and showing all of New England that God’s Church is on the offensive once more. Following is an open letter to Connecticut Attorney General William Tong (who is well acquainted with our members) by the Reverend Jake Dell from the 1st Congregational Church of Woodbury, Connecticut. Christians will not be silent observers to politics anymore. New England Lives. United for Liberty, Prosperity, and Virtue. - The NENP

Is the New England National Party Nativist? Why Yes We Are. The latest letter campaign from our contributors. This statement was delivered to Washington D.C, and addressed to the following New England House of Representative listed below. We encourage everyone to reach out to your representative and express your discontent for this threat to our culture and our New England way of life.

Supporting Connecticut Homeschooling Families On Monday May 5, 2025, members of The NENP stood with Connecticut families against this government. Our statement delivered in defense of Connecticut homeschooling families, to the education and children committees was clear: Don’t mess with homeschool families!

April 19 th, Patriot’s Day: I joined thousands of others at the Old North Bridge in Concord, MA for the 250 th commemoration of the Battles of Lexington and Concord which ignited the Revolutionary War. Crossing the iconic bridge, after the festivities were over and people were dispersing, I found my internet friends by their sharp New England National Party flag. A welcome sight after the perplexing “Free Khalil” and “No Kings, No Tyrants” signs more popular among the woke inhabitants of the Commonwealth. We walked along, handing out flyers as I plied the NENP guys with questions. Here's how you know it’s a worthwhile movement: NENP is creating an action-oriented infrastructure that carries out and flows down President Trump’s aphorism to Make America Great Again. Everyone chants this; I still wear the red hat jogging in every state in which I find myself. But what is greatness, and how are people outside the DC beltway going to accomplish it within their own communities? The key distinguishing feature of NENP is its intention to be a registered political party. Not simply a reactionary movement making political demands of the established order, like the Tea Party or Occupy Wall Street. NENP’s goal is to elect NENP-registered politicians at the local, and up to state, level. The ultimate goal described to me is the election of an NENP Governor. This is a smart and reasonable vision. Minor parties, while arguably a distraction at the presidential level, provide contrast within the morass of local level politics. The Republican party is splintering, and zealous conservatives within the party are jaded by decades of local RINO leadership. RINO Republican municipal-level politicians like to say they’re “pro-local business” (a globalist tagline repeated to never-Trumper, either-Cheney boomers). These same local elected officials will allow a liquor store to buy and knock down a well-maintained 1930s home in the middle of a residential neighborhood to expand its parking lot. And willingly bring in a turnkey Chinese subsidiary over nurturing American start-ups, simply because it’s “investment in our community.” All under the deceptive header of “pro-local business” chanted by registered-Republican RINOs. I neither recognize nor acknowledge these actions as “Republican.” Yet, a more conservative challenger will have a hard time convincing the jaded public of a “different kind of Republican” for whom they should vote. This is where minor parties add context to the tapestry of local political ideology and vision. Often in small towns, there will be only 1-3 challengers for a given town/city council seat. So running as a minor party candidate gives the challenger the advantage of conservative talking points, as well as street cred to guarantee a different outcome. NENP will provide this opportunity in the New England states. Speaking of which: the other distinctive characteristic of NENP as both a movement and minor political party is its regional orientation and mission. I could go on about how special and unique New England is, because it is. The birthplace of the nation, with its ancient battle scars and lessons learned, cries out for a regionally specific solution. But the argument can also be made that the several distinct and valuable regions among these many states are also well-served at the local level by remembering their histories and traditions. Big box stores in identical strip malls, generic food chains, Amazon gadgets arriving from a nearby warehouse: these features of modern life don’t enhance or resemble any of the historic regions of this country. In the past, you’d go on vacation to distant places where people sounded different, food tasted different, and they wore different styles that you could only get there. The experience inspired you to buy keepsakes and postcards by which to remember it. Now, visiting other places has all the comforts of home – and none of the excitement of being in a strange land. Regions are losing their character to the sameness of globalism. Regionalism is part of the key to restoring American greatness. Understanding that common values, tastes, and tendencies reach only so far geographically. I lived in Massachusetts for 17 years: from the reversal of the curse, to the Boston marathon bombing, to the unlikely election of a Republican Boston Mayor. When I think of a movement defined by New England nationalism, I know exactly what that means. New England is about self-sufficiency, frugality, and toughness. It’s about leaving the bits of forest and woods, laced throughout and between towns, just as they are. You don’t know who owns those adventure trails, but you know no one would dare suggest developing a "light industrial” upon it. As I saw on Patriot’s Day, it’s about opposing groups gathering together peacefully toward the higher goal of appreciating history. New Englanders follow the rules, lead honest lives, and don’t tolerate anyone who can’t abide by these terms. NENP astutely observes that all of the characteristics I just mentioned are shared by those who voted for both Republicans and Democrats in November. New Englanders have much in common when it comes local governance. NENP will inspire those left behind by both parties locally, and move the needle back toward the historical truth of traditional values. Vanessa Battaglia

In a unique alignment, one of our most sacred days of history in New England fell during Holy Week this year. The 250 th anniversary of Lexington and Concord seems to have escaped the notice of the rest of the country, but to those of us attending the ceremonies at The Old North Bridge in Concord, it felt as if all of New England had come. This was in fact the inaugural event for the NENP in the state of Massachusetts, and it proved to be a resounding success for all members. Grounding our movement on the legacy of our forefathers was an essential step for the organization, as it is their true spirit of liberty that we intend to carry forward into the 21 st century. Present, were various government officials and dignitaries, who delivered carefully rehearsed remarks within the accepted realms of thought. These speeches our politicians give could easily all be written by AI in this current age, as their droll regurgitated words have been spoken in various combinations ten thousand times before, to different audiences. Our sacred history belongs to the people of New England and should not be exploited by the principle bereft politicians. Gone are the titans of leadership that built our country in colonial times, and in their positions today we now have little more than salesmen, who wrap up their failed vision for our future in tasteful remarks, that grant us no sustenance. The politicization of the event was disappointing, but not unexpected. Nevertheless, our members were not there to see the politicians, but to honor the legacy of our ancestors, and commune with our present-day countrymen. The assortment of material we brought along was generally very well received, with several attendees expressing great enthusiasm and excitement at seeing a new grassroots initiative at work. Some minor unpleasant confrontations did occur, notably with “Indivisible” participants, who had turned out in force with various handmade signs to voice their opposition to the Trump administration. Hardly the time and place for such demonstrations, but we paid them little mind. These people mean well but possess a woefully poor understanding of the reality behind modern politics. The New England National party marches on now, just as Saturday’s parade across The Old North Bridge did. We march for Liberty, Prosperity, and Virtue. These are not “rights” but duties. The NENP is unique in the political landscape in understanding that our words are not merely pacifying platitudes but have a real culmination point; Power for our people to once again shape our own destiny, as we did 250 years ago. The time for disingenuous politicians is coming to a close, as authentic men of action step forward onto the scene. - The NENP
