Kamala Harris visited the New Hampshire Seacoast last Wednesday for a speech to discuss her economic plan. I have never been so angered by a political speech, and the Harris appearance had many overtones to raise the hair on the back of a Conservative’s neck. The speech focused on the small business incentives proposed by ... Read more
When Julie Moore, Secretary of Natural Resources, said the Clean Heat Standards “carbon credit” tax on home heating fuels could drive up costs by 70 cents per gallon, the advocates of the program shouted her down and said, “Wait for the official analysis done by the real experts, you know-nothing, political hack!” (I’m consolidating and ...

Amid flagging congressional efforts to streamline federal permitting processes for energy projects, a disturbing trend is now developing as federal courts move aggressively to not just slow the process but to also use novel reasons to cancel permits that have already been issued. One prominent example relates to an August decision by a federal judge that could, ... Read more
Regular readers will know that the Donchess regime in Nashua is very selective about the flags it allows on the citizen’s pole—almost, dare I say, partisan in its rejection. Most recently, Stephen and Beth Scaer (who both write for GraniteGrok) asked the city to fly the de-trans flag. It was rejected, and an appeal to ... Read more
Food prices are climbing, but soon will soar — inflation is ensured due to recent massive spending. As Americans are pushed to consume artificial meat as a solution to the alleged environmental impact of cow farts, the government seeks to expand its techno-monitoring, in the name of “health and safety,” by requiring the RFID chipping of all livestock. The argument is ... Read more
Most readers already know, at the federal level, which national media personalities are NOT desirable choices for moderating presidential debates. It’s also well known that the participating candidates are to agree upon the format and other details prior to the event. They often “do a walk-through” at the studio or other event site to iron ...

Belknap 5 (Laconia 1, 3, 4, 5, 6) Belknap 6 (Gilford, Gilmanton, Laconia 2) Belknap 7 (Alton, Barnstead) Grafton 3 (Lincoln, Woodstock, Easton, Livermore) Disclosure: ... Read more
It is tantamount to sending your veteran slugger to pinch hit in the bottom of the ninth with The winning run on second. It is like pulling the goalie when you are down by one, and the Stanley Cup is on the line. The Democrats sensed the end of Kamala’s honeymoon, and she was going ... Read more
Medical facemasks, or more generally, obstructing your airway, have been linked to a rise in cases of the Wuhan flu and death. Additionally, evidence and research link face mask-wearing to other illnesses, including cancer and increased exposure to other pathogens, as well as a wealth of additional research on how they don’t help are bad ...

Way back when Rep. Ben Ming first took possession of Sue Homola’s seat in the NH House, he wasted no time in deploying woke identity politics. When he bragged in a tweet that he’s the first Asian to have a seat in the House, I replied that I voted for who would have been the ... Read more
The party of FDR, JFK, LBJ , the Clintons, and recently, Obama seem to disrespect members of their party today. For all these Presidents were impressive communicators, carrying the banner of their party. However, today’s Democrats are expected to support VP Kamala Harris. Harris, with the help of her allies in the “fake news,” continues ... Read more
I was listening to Joe Rogan and Jordan Peterson discuss everything from drugs to God, and throughout the conversation, there was a theme of individualization. The path from child to adult begins with—for lack of a better example—pushing the baby birds out of the nest, as well as that process of preparation (in humans) to ... Read more
Education Options held our first two EdOpt Expos at the Richards Free Library in Newport in August. While there are many things for us to learn, we’re off to a good start. The best part was that all the attendees could point to something that they learned there. I know I was part of a ... Read more
I don’t have their responses (yet), but the fact that WMUR even asked this question is (something of) a surprise. Chris later shared a video of the question being asked. pic.twitter.com/ilijmtdzXH — Chris Maidment (@ChrisMaidmentNH) September 5, 2024 Based on the downstream comments, they didn’t answer the question, which is the only safe response. As ... Read more
“Your Sheriff is the highest authority in your county, even over the federal government. The sheriff has the authority to deny enforcement of state, federal, and local laws that do not serve your rights or work contrary to your rights. Sherriff Brad Rogers from Elkhart, IN, stood up to the federal government. The FDA and ... Read more
Hardly news, but to many, it is – and that will continue to be true until everyone is aware of what it is the FDA and Pfizer knew and when they knew it. With that in mind, I gelt it appropriate to share Naomi Wolf’s 2023 remarks at Hillsdale College. Naomi helped a team of ... Read more
To all those who are sending in memes, thank you! Many, many good ones! Please do share this post, and if you share an individual meme, consider mentioning you saw it on the Grok! Speaking of, from this week, Monday Edition and Wednesday Edition. *** Warning, definitely a few off-color ones, in case tender eyes ... Read more
As a lawyer in the State of New Hampshire for over 50 years, I am beyond outraged at the recent idiotic decision of the New Hampshire Supreme Court (NHSCOTUS) abridging and destroying parental rights. The leftist intimidation has reached the point where the plaintiff defaults to “DOE” rather than use her Christian name. We want ... Read more
New Hampshire likes to advertise how clean and fair its elections are, but if you’ve spent any time here looking into it, this is complete and total bullish!t. From out-of-state voters to mishandled ballots to poorly secured boxes of ballots (and the ever-present “Look, we found one more box”), election integrity has long been an ... Read more
Joe Biden has been away from the White House for two weeks and after his Monday night appearance at the DNC, Joe, and Jill hopped on Air Force One and headed off to Hawaii for a week of soaking up the Pacific Ocean and sun. Joe did not get enough of the sun or the ... Read more
