Homeschooling is Still Gaining Popularity…Thanks to Woke ‘Educators’

Granite Grok - Wed, 2024-09-18 10:00 +0000
One of the few areas where liberty made gains in the COVID lockdown era was the increase in homeschooling. Many parents started homeschooling out of frustration with the failure of “virtual learning” to provide children with a quality education.

Did Taylor Swift’s Endorsement of Harris Backfire?

Granite Grok - Wed, 2024-09-18 00:00 +0000
I’ve never been much of a fan of celebrity endorsements. While newsworthy or worthy of scorn (aged-out former stars selling adult diapers or life insurance), unless they’ve actually got some expertise, they’re just some people who did something (for money) regardless of what they’ve endorsed. Taylor Swift knows how to make money in the music ... Read more

We Did Not Steal The Indian’s Land

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-17 18:00 +0000
The land was not stolen, the land was homesteaded, and the indigenous people did not have the strength or cohesiveness to defend or control their land. The Thirteen Colonies were a division of a main group to allow for separation of certain geographical and religious differences while maintaining a central controlling body to unite in ... Read more

Happy Birthday U.S. Constitution!

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-17 12:00 +0000
September 17 is a day that I customarily set aside to walk around various business communities armed with pocket copies of the US Constitution and ask people I pass by: “What day is it?”   “It’s Tuesday” was one answer.  “National Donut Day” was another.  But of all the hundreds of people I  have asked, only ...

3D Chess: PAC Runs Kamala Is Pro-Israel Ads in Muslim Dense Michigan

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-17 10:00 +0000
Muslims and Arabs tend to vote Democrat. I happen to think it is because they are both political religions with totalitarian aspirations. They both run the same way and pretend to be friends until there can be only one. The Left’s cultural agenda is incompatible with Islam, as is their pretending to love Israel, an ... Read more

The Democracy Democrats Can’t Shut Up About Isn’t Democracy at All

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-17 02:00 +0000
All this talk of Democracy got me thinking about what it means. The consensus among the center-right is that it represents mob rule. Fifty-plus-one pick the power brokers who may do whatever they please to everyone at their expense, with (presumably) 49.9 percent being less happy about it than the rest. Another common conception of ... Read more

The Lower CO2 Summers of 1934 and 1936 We’re Hotter than 2024

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-16 22:00 +0000
Even with their rigged data (suppressed past and elevated present), the summer of 2024 was not the hottest thing to ever happen to humans in America. Seven previous June-Aug contiguous terms were higher, including 1934 and 1936, the reigning number one and number two on record. The 2024 contiguous maximum three-month average was 86.56°. The ...

Trump Continues To Expand The MAGA Movement

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-16 20:00 +0000
Once again, former President Donald Trump is expanding the MAGA movement and the Republican Party by being open to new voices joining the movement and thinking outside of the box. Elections are a game of addition, and if you’re subtracting, then you’re losing. Trump is adding to his base and it can be seen in ... Read more

Offshore Wind Turbines at Risk From Atlantic Hurricanes

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-16 18:00 +0000
If your energy cult predicted more and stronger hurricanes, why exactly should we invest in and rely on an energy source that is susceptible to damage from them? That’s a good question, but it’s not supposed to make sense like most everything else in the climate change policy universe. Besides, the people in charge will ... Read more

MONDAY MEMES

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-16 16:00 +0000
Monday Monday, can’t trust that day! Last week’s Friday Edition. Remember, ridicule and mockery are effective weapons: 1. Ridicule cannot easily be fought 2. Ridicule makes the enemy angry, and angry people make mistakes 3. For those in the “squishy middle” a Thought Splinter (and Part II and Part III and Part IV) can often be hidden inside humor.   Now, ... Read more

Smashing the Western Illusion of Democracy

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-16 14:00 +0000
In these politically turbulent times, the “illusion of democracy is fading worldwide” as one pundit wrote recently. There is a growing sense in the West that “democracy” is not working well, but there is not yet a full and clear recognition of that fact. Michel Maffesoli, honorary professor at the Sorbonne in Paris, has been saying already for several ... Read more
