Crowd-Sourcing What HB1002 (The Right to Know Tax) Really Means

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-08-04 22:00 +0000
The Republicans, having passed HB1002, not only made it more expensive for investigators trying to find malfeasance within the Government, but they also hobbled people like me in a different way. Or, actually, not. Never mind. Rewind. Fagettiaboutit. Consider this just a post that describes what Republicans attempted to do (stick a political shiv into ... Read more

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-08-04 20:00 +0000

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-08-04 12:00 +0000
We haven’t heard much from Kyle Rittenhouse since he was exonerated in his self-defense case. The Democrats tried to make an example of him, and he more than survived the process. Rittenhouse has a book with his name on it. He has 1.2 million followers on X, and I expect he’s doing a lot more ... Read more

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-08-03 18:00 +0000
We may have missed an opportunity here. Transition. Great word. To change from one form, state, style, or place to another. Public education transitioned from teaching kids reading and math to making them mentally dysphoric political activists. Democrats transitioned the American economy from a private-sector job-creating energy-independent machine into the geo-economic equivalent of Dementia Joe ... Read more

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-08-03 12:00 +0000
Have you ever had someone look at you and you think to yourself, they’re judging me? Well, of course, they are. We all do that.
