As the North Country Turns: Still Trying to Stay Out of Jail!

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-08-09 02:00 +0000
Having failed to avoid a conviction for things he admitted to doing and failed to prevent a court from insisting she serve time for that, former State Senator Jeff Woodburn has gone back to the well. You can’t put me in jail; I’m old, he says. I got counseling. I’m a good citizen (former public servant involved ... Read more

Nashua’s Disregard for the Law

Granite Grok - Fri, 2024-08-09 00:00 +0000
Nashua Attorneys take orders from the Mayor, but when those orders violate the constitution, state statutes, or City laws, shouldn’t the Attorneys make a hard stop and comply with the law? Not in Nashua. The Budget Review Committee (BRC) holds public meetings starting in May to review each department’s budget. In June, the Board of ... Read more

EV Fees Should Go to Road Maintenance and Repair

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-08-08 22:00 +0000
The recent—and unfortunately more regular—flooding Vermont has experienced since last summer has damaged a lot of infrastructure, but the impact on our roads due to washouts is a big one—and an expensive one for the state and local municipalities. This raises a critical question of where the money is going to come from to fix ... Read more

The ACLU vs. The Constitution (Again!)

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-08-08 20:00 +0000
Once upon a time, the American Civil Liberties Union claimed to defend the US Constitution. These days, with a few rare exceptions where they accidentally defend it, they represent legal challenges to undermine it. Today’s example is viewed by many as a trap meant to create a discrimination lawsuit with the hope of establishing a ... Read more

Kamala’s Press Chief Tried To Censor Me

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-08-08 18:00 +0000
Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris is not missing any chance to condemn Republicans for threatening to censor libraries and school textbooks. But she is overlooking the heavy-handed record of her chief spokesperson, Brian Fallon. Unfortunately, a recent Supreme Court decision opens the floodgates for far more federal censorship. When Fallon was press chief at the ... Read more

Do Cows or Cars Hurt the Planet More?

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-08-08 16:00 +0000
The slander of cows for their existential threat to humanity has focused on methane emissions, which allegedly warm the planet unsustainably. This dubious claim is premised on the sketchy logic that methane production negates any beneficial bovine ecological impacts (especially of urine and manure) and ignores the effects on the environment and food system if ...

Wall Street Stops The Biden/Harris Spin Cycle

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-08-08 14:00 +0000
Joe Biden has a credibility problem, and his White House and Administration have been caught in so many lies in three-plus years that have been chronicled everywhere. With the help of the legacy media, Joe Biden has managed to spin every negative news story, and together, they have gaslighted the American people to the point ... Read more

Now THIS Is Weird

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-08-08 12:00 +0000
Democrats think JD Vance is weird—I mean, really weird. And what started with Vance has since been attached—by the chattering class propagandist punditry—to the Trump campaign and Republicans in general. It is a 2024 version of deplorable, with a whimsical twist. But is it any less offensive, and does it open them up to attack? ... Read more

We have been covering Dan Richard’s efforts to get the State of NH to do the only thing it is supposed to do. Simply this, which the NE Patriots’ football team made famous: DO YOUR JOB! It’s simple—real simple. Yet, it has taken years of hard work on the part of this one brave and ... Read more

Follow Up – NH AG Orders Hampton Town Clerk to Resign After Multiple Election Law Violations

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-08-08 02:00 +0000
I decided to follow up on Steve’s post (NH AG Orders Hampton Town Clerk to Resign After Multiple Election Law Violations) to see if Hampton Town Clerk Shirly Doheny had followed the NH State Attorney General’s Office demand to resign. So I called. Now you get to figure out which it is – A “no”, ... Read more

Democrats Complete Their Socialist Ticket

Granite Grok - Thu, 2024-08-08 00:00 +0000
Look at San Francisco, the previously beautiful city on the Bay in Northern California. Look at Minnesota, the land of 10,000 lakes and demolished urban areas destroyed by the George Floyd protestors of 2020. Look at these two regions, and you will see the future of America if Kamala Harris and her Vice President running ... Read more

Justice Gorsuch Tries To Explain Democracy to the Cheap Seats

Granite Grok - Wed, 2024-08-07 22:00 +0000
Justice Neil Gorsuch just published a book, which confimred SCOUTS appointees are wont to do, but it comes with something they may not all want to do—interviews with the machine media. Justice Gorsuch sat for just such an undertaking with Major Garrett at CBS, who, instead of the “Sound of Music” softball questions (please tell me, ... Read more

Future Senator Emily Phillips is Clearly Unwelcome in the Country Club.

Granite Grok - Wed, 2024-08-07 20:00 +0000
What, dear readers, are the first thoughts that come to your mind when you hear the words “country club?”  Rich old white men playing golf?  Antisemitism?  Anti-anything that is a departure from the Good Old Boys network?  Though several Rs in the Senate do indeed play golf, let me be clear that I’m not implying ...

How About a Legislators Tax?

Granite Grok - Wed, 2024-08-07 18:00 +0000
Bureaucracies don’t bloat themselves, so the more progressive locales across the increasingly fruitless plain like to spend other people’s money with such abandon that they are always looking for new things to tax, like the rain. It happens to be raining where I am, and as I write this. It is unlike what they’ve seen ... Read more

Meme Overflow

Granite Grok - Wed, 2024-08-07 16:00 +0000
As promised in Monday Memes, I have an overflow. Let the mayhem, mockery, and ridicule continue! *** Warning, definitely off-color ones, in case tender eyes are about *** >>>>>=====<<<<< First, a video about Satanism in the music industry (and, probably, the entire entertainment industry).

Treasuring America’s Future

Granite Grok - Wed, 2024-08-07 14:00 +0000
A fact of life is that all nations and America is no exception, are sustained with each generation’s coming of age and answering its role of manning their nation’s bulwarks. Although this may include military service, it generally applies to the replacement of the retiring generation in whatever capacity they mastered. This is “the natural ... Read more

NH Teacher Found Guilty of Electioneering

Granite Grok - Wed, 2024-08-07 12:00 +0000
New Hampshire Electioneering Law (RSA 659:44-a) prohibits public employees from using government property to engage in voters or votes. The only thing more difficult than getting public employees, typically teacher’s union members, from doing it is convincing the AG office to prosecute. Miracles, however (it seems), can happen. After losing a School Board race by ... Read more

America Reaches a Sad Milestone

Granite Grok - Wed, 2024-08-07 10:00 +0000
Last week the national debt reached 35 trillion dollars, a mere seven months after the debt reached 34 trillion dollars. To put this in perspective, the national debt first reached one trillion dollars in October of 1981, almost 200 years after the Constitution’s ratification! The fact that the government was adding one trillion dollars in ... Read more
