Mutilating and Neutering The Future

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-09-07 00:00 +0000
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

EdOpt Expos were a success!

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-09-06 22:00 +0000
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

WMUR Asks Dems Running for Governor in NH at Least One Good Question

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-09-06 21:00 +0000
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

An interview with Justin Worthley – Running for Sheriff in Carroll County

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-09-06 20:00 +0000
“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

Another Look at the Pfizer Docs

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-09-06 18:00 +0000
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

I Feel Like the March Hare Living in Alice’s Wonderland!

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-09-06 14:00 +0000
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

A Sticky Tamper-Resistance Problem for Elections in NH [Update]

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-09-06 12:00 +0000
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 In The Delaware Sun Too Long

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-09-06 10:00 +0000
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

I Am Going to Do Better on November 5th. How About You?

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-09-06 02:00 +0000
At first glance, the Harris/Walz ticket seems to be one of “hope”and “joy” and must be way better than Trump/Vance, right? That’s exactly what the politically uninclined are thinking right now. Is it TDS? Is it CNN, ABC, NBC, MSDNC, NPR? Is it just a need to be done with everything “Trump?” I don’t know. ... Read more

Rye Selectboard Has Some Thoughts on Proposed Harbor Redevelopment

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-09-06 00:00 +0000
The Pease Development Authority (PDA) manages coastal development in New Hampshire. It derives this power from Section 12-G:43 – Division of Ports and Harbors. As an expression of this power, the PDA has set its sights on Rye Harbor, which we’ve reported on previously here and here. In my remarks I expressed concern for the ... Read more

Writing in Travis O’Hara is a Huge mistake.

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-09-05 22:00 +0000
Travis O’Hara was on the Transportation Committee and quit or was asked to resign. O’Hara missed 308 votes of the 480 that were recorded because he was absent from sessions. He also voted 31 times against leadership, meaning he voted against the Republican party values. THAT IS NOT REPRESENTATION!!! We want to thank Rep.John Sellers for ... Read more

Atlantic Basin has Five “Disturbances” – Zero Hurricanes

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-09-05 21:00 +0000
With only five days until the cyclone season peak (9/10/24), the climate kids are all a flutter. NOAA is simultaneously tracking five disturbances across the Atlantic basin that could develop into cyclones. How likely is that? Not very. Not yet. I modified the latest NOAA map with their percentage chance for each disturbance. At this ... Read more

The Most Dishonest Campaign Mailer Ever

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-09-05 18:00 +0000
I just received the most dishonest campaign mailer ever. The PAC that did the mailer referenced three totally bogus bills to attack the opposition candidate. If they were honest, they surely could have found three real bills to attack that guy. The mailer blames their target for a bill from 2000 – when he wasn’t ... Read more

Bruen Takes a Bite Out of Illinois Gun Ban

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-09-05 16:00 +0000
The Land of Lincoln is not exactly kind when it comes to the Second Amendment. Bans, restrictions, takings, you name it. Illinois believes the government has more rights than you do, and when they can’t take the guns, they write laws that make it as difficult as possible to carry them for self-defense. In their ...

ESG Undermines Social Welfare

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-09-05 14:00 +0000
ESG has become a buzzword for both the American Left and Right. For the Right, it is just a Trojan horse for progressive social attitudes to sneak into business. For the Left it is an alternative to the “cruel” profits-only business model of Milton Friedman. Some on the Right abhor ESG because they worship profit ... Read more

Trump-Hating Mark Cuban Posts Twitter Poll – Get’s “Wrong” Result

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-09-05 12:00 +0000
Mark Cuban has discovered that not everyone hates Donald Trump as much as he does. The former Trump is okay guy turned “can’t stand him” published a poll on X (still pronounced Twitter), and I have to think he was expecting a different result. Why else post it at all? What he got was egg ... Read more

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-09-05 10:00 +0000
A young South Dakota ranching couple has been criminally charged with allegedly stealing federal government property – by maintaining a fence erected by the family some 75 years ago. Charles and Heather Maude, responding to claims from the National Forest Service that their ranch interferes with federal grasslands, requested a land survey to clarify legal ... Read more

CDC ‘Unexpectedly’ Concerned About Viral Impact on the Unborn

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-09-05 02:00 +0000
Another third-world disease is rearing its head in the United States. The Oropouche virus is here, linked almost exclusively to travel from Cuba, and it’s got an interesting nickname. Sloth. And while not necessarily fatal, the “experts,” as in, we still think it’s a good idea for pregnant women to get the COVID vaccine, are ... Read more
