Open letter to Vice President Kamala Harris

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-03 10:00 +0000
I must ask, why?  Why are you running to be the President of the United States?  I watched several clips of your interview with Dana Bash, and I was not impressed.  To me, you looked furious at having to be there and absolutely uninterested in any actual questions.  Your “baby nieces” made you seem a bit excited, and you ...

Who’s To Blame?

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-03 02:00 +0000
Stricken from the nightly scripts that our information spigots spew, once again, there exists a clear and obvious correlation between our Founding Era and today. We’ve all heard about the traitor Benedict Arnold. Well, it seems that his act of betrayal stemmed from a personal belief of being underappreciated and overlooked. His personal beliefs, whether ...

RebuildNH’s 2024 Voter Guide and What You Should Know

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-09-03 00:00 +0000
By now, most readers know that I’m all about right-to-know and have discussed the records of misguided Rs that voted the wrong way on HB 1002’s most recent roll call. As mentioned in Spike’s recent article, I’ve “gone scorched earth” on groups giving high marks to enemies of 91A.  On a personal note, my first ... Read more

Voter Registration Database Upgrade Hackable; Linked to Russian Servers

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 22:00 +0000
New Hampshire has had its share of voting irregularities, both investigated (poorly, but still) and those not. But none of the local efforts to move to paper ballots, even in towns where it wouldn’t even begin to be a hardship (which is all but a few), have succeeded. People either don’t care to show up ...

Gold Star Moms and Dads Have Some Words for Kamala Harris

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 20:08 +0000
This started with me looking to share the words of Mark Schmitz, the Gold Star Father of Marine Lance Corporal Jared M. Schmitz. He had some thoughts to for Ms. Kamala Harris that I found … informative. He wanted to set the record straight about President Trump’s visit to Arlington National Cemetary, how Kamala got ...

“One Nation Under Blackmail”

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 20:00 +0000
Greed and Fear was published in early 2018. The author, Derek Galanis, an Uber insider into the criminal underbelly of “underground financiers” and fraudsters dating back to the mid-1970s, states that his book is “all true.” Essentially, it is his plea deal allocation before sentencing to federal prison. Has Congress deposed him? We want to ... Read more

Kamala Harris Will Shut Down X If Elected

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 18:00 +0000
Kamala Harris has been a prosecutor, a statewide district attorney, and vice president. Each position claims to uphold the Constitution of the United States, and yet, you have to wonder if Kamala Harris has ever read the document. She certainly has not gotten to the section called The Bill of Rights because she has no ... Read more

MONDAY MEMES

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 16:00 +0000
Happy Labor Day! Last week’s Friday Edition. Also, my very recent actual essay-essay (about which I’ve been getting some good comments privately): Revisiting Hashem’s Wisdom – Granite Grok 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 ... Read more

A ‘Freedom’ Impossible Without ‘God’?

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 14:00 +0000
In Hosea 4:6 of God’s holy scriptures, He tells the people of Israel that they are “destroyed for lack of knowledge,” indicating both the priesthood and the people have forgotten His law. America’s decline from the greatest national power has followed a similar path, forgetting His eternal truth: “Where the spirit of the Lord is, ... Read more

There Will Be Lots of Guessing – Most of It Will Be Wrong

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 12:00 +0000
One of the risks of writing about hurricanes a day before the content is published is that they can form in the interim. This has happened to me before, but not so much this year. That’s odd. All the indicators suggested a knock-down drag-out storm-a-palooza of a season. It has yet to materialize only days ... Read more

Has Maine Surrendered to Chinese Weed Cartel?

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 10:00 +0000
Today is my 1,400th article published and consecutive day writing, and I wish I had something more upbeat to opine on. Unfortunately, in these crazy upside-down times, we have much to be upset about, and positive stories are yearned for. The Chinese cartel illegal marijuana enterprise continues to evolve, and the two newest elements should ... Read more

What a Vote For Mr. Stephen is a Vote For

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 02:00 +0000
If you care about children, Medicaid and the economy, you won’t be voting for John Stephen for the Executive Council.  Mr. Stephen was head of DHHS when extreme child abuse was taking place at the Youth Detention Center (YDC) and in other state youth facilities.  The taxpayers are now on the hook for damages from ...

Biden And Harris Are Connected By The Hyphen

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-09-02 00:00 +0000
It is no secret that Vice President Kamala Harris is trying to reinvent herself in the very short time before the election. This process is a tri-fold dilemma. In a poll taken the day after Joe Biden was knocked down and out of the campaign and Kamala quickly took his spot, 25% of those asked ... Read more

Mike Bordes Pimps Travis O’Hara’s “Attendance” as Reason to Vote for Him?

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-01 22:00 +0000
Neither Mike Bordes nor Travis O’Hara should be allowed to go back to Concord, and while they’d be better than most Democrats, you’d actually have to show up for that to work, which makes this rather amusing. Bordes wrote an Op-Ed for the Laconia Daily Sun, pimping O’Hara as prepared and present for County Delegation ... Read more

UNH Poll Analysis: Some Democrats are More Equal than Others

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-01 20:00 +0000
The University of New Hampshire released a poll (The Green Mountain State Poll) on how Vermonters feel about the economy, taxes, and the high cost of living. While an overwhelming majority of Republicans think it stinks and is getting worse, and a majority of Independents tend to agree, 25% of Democrats said, “Nah, things are ... Read more

The Fed’s Fiat Money Is the Real Cause of Price Inflation

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-01 16:00 +0000
By Tom Mullen | Mises Wire – During election years, incumbent presidents are routinely blamed for every societal ill during the previous four years. And almost nothing is riper for the picking than a significant rise in consumer prices. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), prices are currently increasing at a rate of ... Read more

The Credibility of Citizens Alliance

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-01 14:00 +0000
Another special interest group, Citizens Alliance, has released a legislative scorecard today.  Like others that the Grokster known as “Spike” has said I’ve “gone scorched earth on,” this group is no different.  There are 68 reps in their “good standing” category.  Of those 68, 18 are enemies of 91A.  Without further delay, here they are: ...

So, Planned Parenthood Isn’t Taking Any More Government Money?

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-01 12:00 +0000
Planned Parenthood of Northern New England (PPNE) has been complaining for months about how it won’t make as much money as it likes—a “shortfall,” they call it. The response is to threaten services and whine about the political climate in a part of the country where states enshrine a right to their services into their ... Read more
