The Left continues its Long March through our institutions, taking over values, norms, and standards, and turning them upside down and inside out.  And they are relentless and I’m betting that they are even more enthused as they see their endgame coming into sight. Normal Americans have been under fire and beset 360 degrees by those factors trying to finish off what we have taken for granted.

And now, they are well into the process of completely upending our sexual mores by making sex with children legal and normal. And can you guess what attributes of the person who put this in?  Oh, heck, the post title gives it away and I’m betting that you’re not surprised at all. However, the chutzpah is just extraordinary (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Trans Democrat’s bill may allow Minnesota to treat pedophiles as a protected class

Degenerates sexually attracted to children may soon enjoy special treatment as a protected class in the state of Minnesota on account of a new Democratic bill.

The Human Rights Act is the state law prohibiting discrimination in “employment, housing, public accommodations, public services, education, credit and business” and is enforced by the Minnesota Department of Human Rights.

And it has a stopper against pedophilia (as that’s what we’re talking about):

The act presently makes it clear in Subdivision 44 under “363A.03 Definitions” that “‘Sexual orientation’ does not include a physical or sexual attachment to children by an adult.”

Full stop. Don’t go there. But that dude is – he wants to neuter that last bit. What is it with these people?  Is there nothing too low to stoop to? Oh, I know – selfishness. *I* must have what I want when I want it – including minors.

Transvestic state Rep. Leigh Finke (D-St. Paul), named “Woman of the Year” for Minnesota by USA Today,

Sidenote: “Woman of the Year“? Yeah, the US mainstream media is all in on the trans stuff.  We should start calling them misogynists at every turn because that is what the trans movement is doing to Normal women (prime example: Dylan Mulvaney and his prancing over his “365 Days of Womanhood”).

…has introduced HF 1655, dubbed the “Take Pride Act,” which was reportedly incorporated into the Judiciary Policy omnibus bill.

The stated purpose of the bill is to amend the Human Rights Act, thereby “creating a separate definition for gender identity[,] removing certain sections in the human rights act that allow for discrimination based on sexual orientation,” and making a variety of other changes to existing law. Finke’s bill specifically targets Subdivision 44 and would remove the clarification that “sexual orientation” — a protected class under the law — excludes pedophiles.

And who says that Democrats aren’t the Party of Groomers??? This is a perfect example of it. Pedophilia is nothing but grooming kids. But to be this brazen about it?  There seemingly is no limit to the debauchery that the Democrats and the transgender movement is willing to go – by their own words and deeds.  Don’t like it? just redefine it! After all, isn’t that what Democrats have done since the late 1800s? Democrats to Progressives to Liberals back to Progressives and now to Democrat Socialists; a change every time that they “burn out” its use and trying to present themselves as a new “Bright and Shiny New Object” to mislead the public.

So, pedophilia becomes MAP – Minor Attracted Person.  Innocuous, right? And he’s blatant about it:

“Nothing in the bill changes or weakens any crimes against children, or the state’s ability to prosecute those who break the law,” said Finke. “Of course, pedophilia is not a sexual orientation. The language never should have been included in the statutory definition in the first place. Crimes against children are located in Minnesota’s criminal statutes, and again, they remain unchanged.”

Then what IS a pedophile if children are “removed” from their “sexual orientation”? Oh yeah – celibate. And here he is trying to deep six it. Of course, he goes all “I’M A VICTIM!!” for being taken to task at the outrage:

Finke suggested on Twitter Wednesday that the backlash over his measure was undeserved and that he is “left hurt, and scared.”

Scared – really?? What did you THINK was going to happen when you made this public?  Are you that stupid to believe that because you’re a Democrat in a Democrat State AND a Trans you could get away with this without creating a hubbub? Then what IS a pedophile if children are “removed” from their “sexual orientation”? Oh yeah – celebate. And here he is trying to deep six it.

I agree with the “degenerates” description above – these people are horribly driven by their sexual urges and NO regular societal norm is going to stop them. They care about themselves but NOT what their actions, if carried out against little children, will do TO that child. Doesn’t matter to them. They are driven by their gonads and that urge must be satisfied.

And now they want to go from a status that is disgusting at best (re: the stats in prison as to how long they stay alive). Even other criminals believe they are the scum of the scummiest and have no problem “protecting the children” in taking those pedophiles out of circulation completely. Yet, there is an academic movement to make it legal. Given, also, the rise of the Transgender Movement that allows almost “anything goes” between consenting adults, these folks are trying to piggyback on the transgender movement like the trans movement did to the gay movement.

But Normal people created a big pushback:

Minnesota bill normalizing pedophilia dropped after backlash

I’m not quite sure whether the bill is totally dead or not, because nothing is until the legislature adjourns. We do know that the GOP managed to get the language normalizing pedophilia stripped out of the bill in a vote yesterday.

Whether the language comes back or not, it is clear is that the pressure is on and the Chief Author of the bill is feeling the heat and the Republicans in the Minnesota House, who apparently hadn’t noted the change to the definition of “sexual orientation” to remove the exclusion for pedophilia, have grown a backbone.

…The bill explicitly strikes the provision in current law that states: “Sexual orientation” does not include a physical or sexual attachment to children by adults.” This, in plain language, means that if this amendment to the law passes then “Sexual orientation” may include a physical or sexual attachment to children by adults…This means pedophilia will now be considered a sexual orientation that is protected.

As the second post points out, the sex act with a child would be illegal but no one could discriminate against a pedophile. Which means that a pedo could join any child oriented group or club and “mingle” with children.

And make no mistake, Finke has proven himself to be a groomer:

Leigh Finke has supported grooming children, specifically kids in churches, with both critical queer and critical gender theory since at least 2020

The idea of sex and gender are toxic. Progressives, public schools, and pedophiles all think they know what is best for your kids. And if Moms and Dads are not to be held responsible as caregivers, why do we need Mother’s Day and Father’s Day? Maybe just opt out.

And we don’t mean not sending a card or a gift. How about just never mind?

 

In a viral thread posted Sunday, Twitter account Arizona Informer posted more than a dozen screenshots from businesses sending Mother’s Day opt-out offers, noting the similar language used in the emails and equating the trend with anti-family activism.

“Something very strange is happening with Big Corporations,” Arizona Informer captioned the thread. “Out of nowhere, [Kroger]-owned [Fry’s Food Store], [Kay Jewelers], [Hallmark], and now [DoorDash] have all sent ‘Opt out of #MothersDay‘ emails to their customer base.”

“This is not organic,” the account charged. “This reeks of anti-family activists.”

If you are sensitive to terms like mother and father, you can’t possibly have any reason to celebrate those people. And they can’t just delete the junk or spam or whatever it is solicited or otherwise. How about we offer you an opportunity to opt out of reality – wait, you already did that.

Moving forward, marketers and card companies have an opportunity. Happy Birthing Parent’s Day! Or, better yet, since this is where it is all leading. Thank the Government Day – which we could celebrate on April 15th!

The IRS could add a check box at the end of the return next to the “Would you like to donate 3$” that says, “Send a gift on Thank The Government Day.” As if doing your patriotic duty with the Department of Internal Revenue is not enough of a thank you for another year of non-stop fear, intimidation, waste fraud, and abuse.

This will, of course, be incredibly ineffective. Most of the people who would thank the government are on welfare, food stamps, expanded Medicaid/medicare, and all of that. If they do file, it’s paper pushing to keep the peeps on the rails and a way to launder more money into this more-government constituency. Who, it seems likely, will not be parting with anything they have left, so no thank you on the thank you.

Voting for more free stuff will have to be enough.

See if you can hear when “Gandalf” is used – an inside joke (heh!).

Thursday was when the NH Supreme Court held the oral hearing in the Manchester School District case in which a mother caught the District lying (by omission) to her by not informing her that the District was aiding and abetting her daughter in “social transitioning” to be a male – something that is a huge life event (in addition to trying to be something she can never be). It was discovered when a teacher, in trying to update the Mom over the phone on something else, inadvertently let slip the daughter’s “male” name. She brought a case to Manchester Superior Court where a Maggie Hassan appointed judge ruled that the Mom had no rights to her child when in school.  She appealed.

Here is the Court recording (low resolution):

The audio is much better than what I could get; it is a large room with a lot of hard surfaces resulting in a lot of echo. Unfortunately, while the court gallery does have a “multbox” (which allows a direct audio feed from the Court’s PA system), it only had one “tap” and NHPR had already “taken possession” of it. However, the video is much darker than mine.

My recording:



Bonus!

I have to say that the security folks were quite helpful – as in “we ARE here to serve you!”.  They got me set up with the Clerk of the Court so that I could register to video record the hearing (Media has to register with the Court system for audio / video recording purposes). The NH Supreme Court Clerk of Court is Timothy A. Gudas, Esq. and he was nice enough to escort me into the chambers that you see above (something that he didn’t have to do).

Quite a bit of the gallery was taken up by students and he started to speak with them in a tutelage as to how cases are handled by the NH Supreme Court while I was setting up. Apologies for not catching the beginning but I still thought it was an interesting enough tutelage to record as much as possible. Please note that while the student questions aren’t the best audio quality, I did not have permission to record them so I didn’t point my camera at them (“the better part of valor” as well as “I don’t want to end up here as part of a case instead of covering a case” as well was applied).



I have thoughts about the hearing itself and so did fellow Grokster Ann-Marie Banfield who was also present (she tipped me off about the time of the hearing). We talked for quite some time as she headed home towards the seacoast and I going northward. We’re going to try to do another test of the Riverside.fm podcasting software, that Steve and I did earlier this week, over the weekend.

The post NH Supreme Court Hearing – Manchester School District Transgender Lawsuit Hearing (and “Gandalf!”) appeared first on Granite Grok.

After sitting through the Supreme Court hearing on 4/27/2023, where the Manchester School District Attorney argued against parental rights for families who send their children to the Manchester public schools; you got the feeling that school officials have no intention of problem-solving this legal dispute.

Instead, they want to slam the door in the faces of parents who want to parent their own children. I think even the Union Leader reporter might have been stunned by this admission in court:

 

 

Whatever happened to finding ways to solve problems? Administrators say they want students to learn problem-solving strategies, but shouldn’t they set the example too?

The Manchester JBAB policy states that: School personnel should not disclose information that may reveal a student’s transgender status or gender nonconforming presentation to others unless legally required to do so or unless the student has authorized such disclosure.

There is nothing in the policy about due process. This attack on parents applies to loving and caring parents who simply want to be a part of their child’s life. In this case, that’s exactly what they had, parents who are loving and caring; not the abusive monsters that all parents are now portrayed to be by those who advocate for lying to parents.

Teachers are afforded due process. Why not parents? Shouldn’t a policy like this only apply to a parent that has been shown to be a danger their child? Why are loving and caring parents treated like they are abusive monsters? That’s what this policy says to all parents in Manchester, even if you are loving and caring, you will be treated as if you are an abusive monster.

If you don’t like it, parents, go somewhere else.

How does this policy respect the diversity of the families in Manchester? How is this inclusive language? Why is no one looking to problem solve, and come up with a policy that serves all families in Manchester?

We know that The New Hampshire School Boards Association withdrew JBAB from their recommended list of polices.
JBAB Manual 2022-3-1

We know that this policy applies to all families without due process. We know that many schools in New Hampshire do NOT have this policy in their school district.

Teachers do not want to be put in the position of lying to parents. Several teachers spoke up at the parental rights hearing (SB272) and testified before the legislators that they don’t like being put in a position where they have to lie to parents. I suppose you can find some teachers who are a bit more radicalized in their worldview, and have no problem coming between a parent and child–but many teachers do not want to work in a district where they are instructed to lie to parents.

So where are the problem solvers? How much money is being spent on attorneys to fight against parental rights in Manchester?

What is wrong with the people running the Manchester school district? Namely the school board and administrators who go along with this?  Are they that determined to drive good families out of the public schools? That’s exactly what we heard during the hearings on SB272. Parents warned that if public school policies required staff to lie to parents, they were going to remove their children from the public schools. Don’t believe me? Listen yourself:
RPReplay_Final1681863893

It’s as if the Manchester administrators and board members are so stubborn on this issue that they are going to drive more families out of the school district.  None of these people know how to compromise to find a solution that works for all parents? Then they need to stop complaining when families utilize the school choice options that are available to them.

One thing’s for sure, school choice proponents will be sitting back and watching this unfold. Manchester attorneys, administrators, and board members are priming these families to remove their children from the district. This is a great way to get new supporters of school choice initiatives in New Hampshire.

 

 

The post Manchester Attorney to Parents: Get Your Kids Out of Our Schools if You Don’t Like Them appeared first on Granite Grok.

Yes, there was a COVID-19 disinformation campaign. Your government and Big Pharma paid for it. They spread it from Hospitals to Politicians, COVID “bailouts,” political parties, unions, your Nieghbor ‘Karen,’ and ad campaigns; hundreds of billions not only promoted a lie, it actively suppressed the truth.

It was a bigger contagion, spread faster, and was far more dangerous than SARS-CoV2. And tens of thousands of pages about the COVID injections in the possession of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), written by Pfizer/Moderna and other experts pre and post-launch, prove the fraud was deliberate.

Your trusted media outlets have yet to cover that.

They have not reported on how groups that promoted vaccines, passports, and mandates got money from Pfizer (also here). They have not dared admit their disinterest, admitted to any pro-covid policy prompting or pro-vaccine ad money they received, or how much of the reporting they featured was not just wrong but tragically. And even if they didn’t get paid off, how can they claim with a straight face they exist to be anything but mouthpieces for state-approved narratives?

Pfizer making large donations to groups who just happened to publicly promote the idea that vaccine mandates (that enrich Pfizer) are good for “the community” is certainly an issue, but it is hardly the biggest.

The FDA tried to hide what we’ll call the Pfizer docs—tens of thousands of pages of data, research, evidence, and commentary about the COVID-19 injections before and after deployment. Neither Big Pharma nor Big Public Health wanted anyone to see what should have been defacto evidence in support of their claims of safety and efficacy.

The desire to obscure the truth could be a Pulitzer-prize-worthy story if Pulitzers were handed out for actual journalism.

A judge forced their release; the contents did not affirm the advocate’s claims. The people they’d labeled vaccine deniers were right. Another potentially Pulitzer Prize-worthy expose that no one in journalism seems interested in telling because nothing about these injections was safe or effective.

They couldn’t prevent COVID infection or spread, and the public health apparatus tasked as watchdogs knew it. The inmates were correct; their keepers were not just corrupt but pre-meditated mass murderers, and still, the credentialed media can’t or won’t touch the story.

If they did, everyone downstream could claim they were following orders, but that’s not true – certainly not for so-called journalists. Opposing testimony from credentialed experts has been widely available for years; these speakers were sullied, besmirched, despoiled, and canceled by the press. Evidence of alternative treatments resulted in deliberate fear campaigns against the treatments and their advocates.

All of that contributed to not just the spread of COVID but to vaccine harms, including death. It can be ignored, but it cannot be denied. The Pfizer docs have been available for almost 18 months now and are unequivocal.

The mass has been sifted, and the results are in (emphasis mine).

3,500 recruited experts were divided into six working groups with committees at the head of them to analyze the documents and create reports that would be accessible, and understandable, to the general public.

And regarding these dozens of reports, Wolf apologized in advance for having to share that these Pfizer documents “contain evidence of the greatest crime against humanity in the history of our species.”

 

Aaron Warner wrote about some of the latest revelations on our pages last week. Since then, another report resurfaced from the same speech, a list of the top 11 revelations demonstrating Pfizer’s crimes against humanity – to which I would add the complicity of politicians, public health, and especially local and national media.

These are facts based on docs created by or in the keeping of Pfizer and the FDA. I have excerpted key bits, but there is more worth your attention.

 

#1: Pfizer knew their gene-based injections had negative efficacy as early as November 2020.

“Pfizer knew this was the case with regard to their own product in November 2020 before being broadly introduced and marketed as a remedy for COVID-19.”

#2: Shortly after release of the COVID injections on the market, Pfizer moved to hire 2,400 full-time employees to process the paperwork of the injured.

“within a month or two [of vaccine rollout], Pfizer was getting so many reports of adverse events [AEs] – meaning bad things happening to people who had been injected – that they understood they needed to hire 2,400 full-time staffers in order simply to process the paperwork” of these injuries.

#3: Pfizer and the FDA withheld information that the shots cause heart damage in youth for four months while an aggressive propaganda campaign drove many thousands to get injected.

“”Pfizer knew in May of 2021 that the vaccines had caused heart damage in 35 minors within a week after the injection,”

#4: Pfizer knew the shot’s dangerous lipid nanoparticles quickly distribute throughout the body. And there is no evidence they ever leave.

These materials ‘biodistribute’ – this is Pfizer’s language – throughout your body in 48 hours!” Wolf exclaimed.

#5: ‘I don’t say it lightly, but it’s mass murder’: Side effects in Pfizer documents far more severe than CDC and doctors told patients

While the CDC has often typically said recipients will have fatigue, chills and perhaps swelling at the injection site, “that’s not what’s in the Pfizer documents.”

Rather, “there’s industrial scale strokes, hemorrhages, blood clots, lung clots, leg clots, neurological disorders, dementia-type disorders. Guillain-Barré, Bell’s Palsy [and more].”

#6: Prior to it being legal, more than 1,000 children were injected, and Pfizer’s documents indicate a high rate of serious injury

In early 2021, before any Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for children, Wolf reported that Pfizer injected “62 kids, some of them as young as two months old,” with their gene-based product, 28 of whom there were no records of the results available. “We don’t know if they survived,” she said.

“Among the 34 whose records are still in the Pfizer documents, there’s a seven-year-old British girl who sustained a stroke, and there’s a two-month-old baby with liver damage,” she lamented.

#7: Pfizer documents reveal a ‘Mengele-type experiment… on how to disrupt and impair human reproduction.’ Available records of study participants who conceived children show 80% lost their babies

“in the Pfizer documents, women study participants were told not to get pregnant, which is interesting,” she observed. “It’s a respiratory disease. Why would you tell women not to get pregnant?” Nevertheless, 270 women did conceive children of whom Pfizer reportedly “lost the records” of 234, which Wolf said is a violation of the law. “Of the 36 [remaining] women whose pregnancies came to term, over 80 percent of them lost their babies [by] spontaneous abortion or miscarriage,” she reported.

#8: Pfizer knew there was a danger to fertility. Lipid Nanoparticles damage the placenta during pregnancy, causing early deliveries. Lots of chromosomal abnormalities as well

Pfizer documents indicate that “shedding is real,” Wolf reported. “Pfizer defines exposure to the vaccine as skin contact, inhalation and sexual intercourse, especially [at the time of] conception.”

Since Pfizer also warned male trial participants against having sexual intercourse with childbearing-aged women and to use two forms of birth control if they did, “there was clearly something about conceiving with a vaccinated male that Pfizer was guarding against,” she said.

#9: Pfizer docs show that lipid nanoparticles also enter breast milk, stunting, injuring and sometimes killing babies

“nursing babies, in the Pfizer [trial] documents, sustained seizures and one baby died in the E.R. after nursing from a vaccinated mother, from multi-organ system failure,” she said. “Four of the moms, who were lactating… had breast milk that turned blue green.”

#10… Pfizer docs show 3 to 1 of AEs sustained by women, 16% ‘reproductive disorders.’ ‘What kind of monsters look at 16% reproductive disorders and keep going?’ Results: ‘13% to 20% drop in live births’

In examining the thrust of the Pfizer documents, …Her team “found that of the adverse events, 72 percent of them were sustained by women. And this is constant throughout. It’s a constant 3 to 1 [ratio]” she said while also acknowledging the real harms done to men (Report 38).

“And of the 72 percent of adverse events” in women, Pfizer defines 16% of them as, “[in] their words, ‘reproductive disorders,'” while men also suffer a terrible rate but far less at 0.49 percent.

#11: LNPs degraded the basic factories of masculinity in boys’ testes in utero when their mother had been injected. ‘So, these are monsters, and there’s no way to avoid concluding that they’re focused on disrupting human reproduction.’

“…the Pfizer documents reveal that LNPs “degrade baby boys in utero” by traversing “the testes of fetal baby boys” and damaging “the Sertoli cells and the Leydig cells, which are basically the factories of masculinity.”

These cells “are responsible for the male hormonal balance that create things like deep voices, hair on their bodies, broad shoulders, all of the things that we associate with normal masculinity. And that is being degraded.”

 

This is the tip of a very large iceberg that most, if not all, credentialed media experts continue to ignore or, if they even bother, try to dismiss, furthering their complicity in these crimes against humanity. It’s a distinction they could easily fix.

All they have to do is commit an act of journalism.

Zooey Zephyr is an American politician and university administrator representing Missoula in the 100th district in the Montana House of Representatives. Zooey found herself in the spotlight this week when she organized a disruption of Montana House proceedings to protest a bill banning gender-affirming care for transgender youth in Montana.

On April 18, Rep Zephyr registered her opposition to a proposed bill banning gender-affirming care for transgender youth in Montana. 

“I hope the next time there’s an invocation, when you bow your heads in prayer, you see the blood on your hands,” Rep Zephyr said about the high rates of suicide risk among transgender youth and adults.

She sparked a backlash last week when she said lawmakers would have “blood on their hands” if they restricted medical care for transgender youth. 

Ahead of Wednesday’s vote, she vowed to “do what I have always done: I will rise in support of my community.” Republicans accused her of stoking violence and violating the chamber’s decorum with her comment.

The Montana House voted on Wednesday to censure Zephyr and was successful with a 68-32 party-line vote. Zephyr, now barred from participating on the House floor, said she would continue to stand behind her beliefs after the censure.

“As I left the House chambers, I pressed my light to speak—a reminder that this legislature is removing 11,000 Montanans from discussion on every bill going forward,” Zephyr tweeted. “I will always stand on behalf of my constituents, my community, and democracy itself.”

It seems that I forgot an essential element of this story. Zephyr was born Zachary Raasch in Billings, MT, and grew up in Montana and Washington State, where he was a champion high school wrestler. Zephyr decided to run for the Montana House because she saw a void in Trans Rights representation. She barely won the primary in 2022 but won her seat in the general election with a resounding 79% of the votes. 54% of Montana’s 100th District cast votes in the general.

My concern with Zephyr, or any trans or gay person in state or federal politics, is their narrow focus on LGBTQ+ issues. I find this true of Chris Pappas, who represents my district, NH District 1. When I receive his email recaps each week, the majority of the time, it is an LGBTQ+ issue he highlights that drew his attention. Does he not have equal concern for the problems of the other 98% of his constituents? I fear not.

According to the Pew Research Center, these are their findings regarding the Trans population in America:

Adults under 30 are more likely than older adults to be trans or nonbinary. Some 5.1% of adults younger than 30 are trans or nonbinary, including 2.0% who are a trans man or trans woman and 3.0% who are nonbinary – that is, they are neither a man nor a woman or aren’t strictly one or the other. This compares with 1.6% of 30- to 49-year-olds and 0.3% of those 50 and older who are trans or nonbinary.

The members of the Trans community have the right to equal representation but not more, and that is what is afforded them by their representatives.

I wrote today’s title with tongue in cheek because I believe Biden will seize the opportunity to show his support for the LGBTQ+ community by bringing Zephyr to the Oval as he did the Nashville 3. When he meets with Zephyr, the folks of East Palestine, Ohio, will again get bumped from the President’s schedule. After all, we all have priorities, and a bunch of Republicans from Ohio are not one of Biden’s.

The post When Will Zooey Be Seated In The Oval Office appeared first on Granite Grok.

Upon hearing Fox News Network was “parting ways” with Tucker Carlson, the shock was sudden but the surprise was short-lived.  We are living in a day and time when virtually every sacred cow in America and the institutions they represent are being thoroughly savaged. 

From the founding of the country (1776 or 1619), to the fathers themselves (they were all racists including Lincoln apparently), to the very fabric of the scientific method used to catapult us to the front of the world superpowers, we are seeing a deliberate undoing of all things American, and by those who told us they were our fellow countrymen and women.

Tucker Carlson’s firing is emblematic of the most recent of the pillars in society we’ve long held as inviolable to what makes America so special.  We have long been a nation so revered refugees and immigrants will brave life and limb and even violate laws to join us.  That reverence largely comes axiomatically thanks to our stance on the freedom of speech.  It is, as the founders well knew, the very essence of a free people and a free country.  Why?

Words have tremendous power.  Words can motivate men and women to do incredible things.  Even God Himself chose to communicate to mankind from His word, likewise identifying Himself as “the Word”.  The same word that brought the universe into being, who made us in His image and likeness, knows full well the way to communicate His perfect will is not through pictures but through words.  Conversely, the greatest arbiters of evil understand the same thing.  Hitler’s rise was born out of the written word (Mein Kampf) and the passionately delivered orations of his spoken words.  As was Mao’s, or Lenin, both drawing socializing strength from the written words of Karl Marx, and passing the legacy on to Derek Bell, Kimberle Crenshaw, Judith Butler, Ibram X. Kinde and Robyn DeAngelo.

Tucker Carlson is perhaps one of the finest on air wordsmiths of his generation.  There are few people who can pull you into rapt attention as Tucker, drawing nightly interest, the most in cable news history,  from a throng of 3.5 million fans and many who understood him as the biggest threat in Word War III – the ideological battle undergirding the current unrest in our country and throughout the world.

Tucker’s popularity grew steadily over the past few years, thanks not only to his witty turns of phrases and keen insights into all aspects of American political life, but more by his choice of words and the integrity necessary to generate the type of power he commanded.  He acquired this power, found in the massive audience who looked to him for journalistic insights, by steadily choosing his words carefully, although not as one concerned with political correctness.  Tucker understands words have power beyond meaning, including the ability to frame a situation or person in the proper light.

Across the airwaves, Tucker’s ideological opponents understand words in the same way. However, they have chosen to join the side that uses words as weapons of war against America.  Joy Reid, Anna Navarro, Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo, Chris Hayes, and the like all showed themselves adherents to the new ideology that hides behind such monikers as “woke” or the equally vague “liberal,” which in reality is communism.

Communists are smart enough to hide behind words because they know the truth is not on their side.  In fact, truth is as much a hindrance to them as are words that convey it, which is why they incessantly quibble over words and attempt to control what we say.  Pronoun pleading and policing are the epitome of this attempt.  Not only do the pronouns they choose not fit within the truths of the English language (no one can be a they/them, no matter how many personalities or demons you’re entertaining inside of you), but they’ve also become a tool by which to control your speech.  You will be told which pronouns to use or else.

Tucker, a student of history, also saw quickly through the ideological left’s use of double-speak.  Words such as “diversity,” “equity,” and “inclusion” all have dictionary definitions yet have completely opposite uses for political purposes.  These terms sound like people of diverse backgrounds, thoughts, and opinions will be included into the public discourse and halls of influence so that equality will be realized, embodying the American dream.  However, the same word merchants tell us America is evil, its founders fatally flawed, and the documents they wrote enshrine systemic racism.  Understanding this, Tucker reminds us we would be insane to think their words have anything remotely to do with American values.  No.  The type of diversity they are after is skin deep.  Inclusion is merely to hold a place for another communist to assume political power.  Equity can perhaps best be seen in any of the thousands of stolen items the left will have you believe are “reparations” when in reality, it’s theft that is leading to the closing of hundreds of retail stores across America.  Just ask Whole Foods shoppers in San Francisco or Walmart and REI hopefuls in Portland, Oregon.

Just days before his firing, Carlson delivered a speech at the Heritage Foundation wherein he cautioned his listeners to quit being fooled into thinking what is going on in our country is in any way politics as usual.  Harkening back to the 80s and 90s when politics was about achieving desired outcomes that were for the best and extending grace to ideas maybe not your own for the sake of seeing what works, Carlson dispels that delusion. Rather than suppose our differences are politically right vs. left, he explains:

“What you’re watching is not a political movement. It’s evil.”

He then defines the characteristic differences between good and evil.

“Good is characterized by order, …peace, lack of conflict, cleanliness.  Cleanliness is next to Godliness. And evil is characterized by their opposites: violence, hate, disorder, division, disorganization, and filth…if you’re advocating for the latter, what you’re calling for is evil.”

Leave it to Tucker to cut through the morass and clarify the terminology.

Much like Naomi Wolf and others who are, rather than becoming woke, awakening to the reality we are facing is evil masquerading as good, Tucker concludes his speech by reminding us where true goodness comes from – asking for more of it from its true source.  With his uniquely confident yet self-effacing wit, Tucker says, “even I, an Episcopalian, the Samaritans of our time” (Samaritans were considered as the lowly step-cousins to the Jews), “I am coming to you, not as an evangelist, but from the most humble and lowly theological position you can…that maybe you can take ten minutes out of your busy day and say a prayer for our future.”

Thanks for the reminder, Tuck.  Not only is there power in our words, there is tremendous power in our prayers when we assume the posture of a modern-day Samaritan.

“My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.” (Psalm 51:17)

(Reminder: The National Day of Prayer will be held Thursday May, 4th of this year with a gathering in Massachusetts)

The American Legion Henry J Sweeney Post #2 in Manchester, NH, has a surprise for Veterans and family members of all ages. They are the location for “the newest show in New Hampshire drag entertainment!”

 

This rotating cast will include entertainers from around the country, in addition to bringing your many of your New Hampshire favorites back to a stage near you! Every show will also raise money to be donated to the American Legion of Merrimack NH for their gracious contribution in bringing you fabulous entertainers. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show, as Ivy League Entertainment presents Legion of Glam!

– All Legion of Glam shows are available for all ages, though it should be stated that the content experienced during these shows are of a mature nature. Course language, sexual innuendo, and adult themes will be present.

If you’d like to learn about the entertainment, go here. And if you are the adventurous sort, here.

Age Appropriate

Drag shows are for adults, and if that’s your thing – for like the millionth time – have at it. Be you, unless that means bringing kids. Don’t be that person. This product is not suitable. And maybe ask why or how this is “The American Legion?” I went to Legion.org, ‘cuz why not, to check out what they say they do. There’s a lot of good stuff there, including this mission statement.

 

To enhance the well-being of America’s veterans, their families, our military, and our communities by our devotion to mutual helpfulness. The American Legion’s vision statement is “The American Legion: Veterans Strengthening America.” The American Legion’s value principles are as follows:

A VETERAN IS A VETERAN – which means The American Legion embraces all current and former members of the military and endeavors to help them transition into their communities.

SELFLESS SERVICE – which means The American Legion celebrates all who contribute to something larger than themselves and inspires others to serve and strengthen America.

AMERICAN VALUES AND PATRIOTISM – which means The American Legion advocates for upholding and defending the United States Constitution, equal justice and opportunity for everyone and discrimination against no one, youth education, responsible citizenship and honoring military service by observing and participating in memorial events.

FAMILY AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT – which means The American Legion meets the unique needs of local communities.

ADVANCING THE VISION – which means The American Legion educates, mentors and leads new generations of Americans.

HONOR THOSE WHO CAME BEFORE US – which means The American Legion pays perpetual respect for all past military sacrifices to ensure they are never forgotten by new generations.

The American Legion’s motto is “Veterans Strengthening America.”

 

No mention of drag queens, Legion of Glam, or anything that even begins to comport with the cultural mission of normalizing men dressed as absurd, comic-like caricatures of slutty women. But I’m not a Veteran. I’m not a member of The American Legion, but I know a lot of vets. My dad was a Veteran of WWII; my grandfather served in WWI. This isn’t the best look for The American Legion, based on my experience.

But they do use the word transition and point out “AMERICAN VALUES AND PATRIOTISM – which means The American Legion advocates for upholding and defending the United States Constitution, equal justice and opportunity for everyone, and discrimination against no one, youth education, responsible citizenship and honoring military service by observing and participating in memorial events.”

So, if the man’s sized high heel fits – but is it “youth education” or “responsible citizenship” to allow kids to attend?

Not my call, but it might be yours if you are a member.

 

Note: Legion of Glam is not to be confused with the VFW Meat Raffle.

This event is scheduled for July 8th and does appear on the Sweeney Post Calendar.

“Love” is thought of as a virtue, while “hate” is considered a vice. But not all forms of love are good, and not all hates are bad. If you love to set buildings on fire, molest children, or steal, these are obviously bad loves. If you hate racism, sexism, or injustices of all sorts, then these are good hates.

Time and again, in response to exposing Islam for what it is, Islamists simply retort by calling me a hatemonger instead of refuting my assertions.

Hence, I am bringing my case to the fair-minded public to judge. I disapprove a great deal about Islam, its founder, its theology, and the crimes it has perpetrated throughout its history, past and present.

Islam is the creation of one man, Muhammad. The man claimed he was visited many times by jins. He also claimed that the angel Gabriel commissioned him as the emissary of the Lord of the Lords, the one and only creator of the entire universe, Allah.

Muhammad was ridiculed for reporting his nonsensical revelations (hallucinations) from Allah as an “insane poet.” His own people, the Quraish tribe, custodians of the idolatry of Mecca, eventually laughed Muhammad out of town. Yet, the illiterate Muhammad persisted in his claim and revealed the Quran in bits and pieces over some twenty years.

Islam’s rules of conduct as encapsulated in the Sharia are based on the Quran and the life of the Prophet himself. Even a cursory examination of the Quran clearly demonstrates its confused verbiage, contradictions, and primitive provisions that can hardly be word-for-word dictates of the one and only all-knowing and all-wise creator of the universe, as Muhammad claimed and Muslims blindly believe. The Quran and the Sharia are nothing more than the products of the thinking and way of life of the Arabian Peninsula of long ago, with sprinklings from the Torah and the New Testament.

Islam considers itself the only and final valid religion. It allows a bit of tolerance for the “people of the book,” Jews and Christians, and none for billions of others with different religions or no religion at all.

Islam is a cult and not a religion. It meets all the criteria of cultism by imprisoning its adherents, dictating to them every detail of their lives, and condemning any member to the death of apostasy for daring to leave its fold.

So, here is a short list of Islamic beliefs and practices that I abhor. In my view, it is good to hate them and demonic to love them.

* Islam has a caste system with the male believer on top, the female believer next in rank, followed by the male slave believer, and finally the female slave believer. I simply reject slavery, as well as stratifying people, and firmly believe in equality for all.

* Islam is a misogynist cult where women are chattel. “Al-rejalo ghavamoon ala-alnesa,” men are rulers of women, asserts the Quran — one of the hundreds of Islamic rulings that relegate women to subservience by virtue of their gender. Men are allowed four regular wives and numberless temporary ones, while any woman having a liaison with another man is automatically condemned to death by stoning.

* Education is a sin for true believers, particularly for women. It is in eradicating this sin that the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan have systematically destroyed thousands of schools. To keep females away from schools, true believers raze schoolhouses to the ground and splash acid on the face of the females daring to head for school.

* Freedom in all its forms, highly prized by free people, is taboo in Islam. The duty of the true believer is to completely surrender his humanness and will to the will of Allah as required in the Quran and dictated by the clergy

* Islam’s justice system itself is criminal. Just a few examples should suffice here. In the court of law, a woman’s testimony counts as one-half of that of a man; the due process is either absent or perfunctory; thieves are subjected to amputation of limbs; minors and homosexuals are executed; adulterers are stoned to death; apostates are executed and the families of the victims are forced to pay for the bullets that murdered their loved ones.

* Under Islam, collusion between the mosque and the state makes for the dehumanization of the citizenry. Any and all oppositions, be they religious, political, or otherwise are brutally suppressed. The Islamic Republic of Iran, for instance, carried out summary execution of tens of thousands of opposition and dumped their bodies in mass graves in Khavaran, outside of Tehran, without even allowing the families of the victim to perform the burial rite.

* Islam’s war is not limited to the living. Anything and everything that is non-Islamic is systematically subjected to elimination and destruction. Just two examples: the Buddha statues in Bamyan were dynamited by the Taliban of Afghanistan, while the cemeteries of the Baha’is in Iran are bulldozed by the Islamic Republic’s thugs.

* Islamic clerics believe it their right to execute people they consider heretics and place bounties on the heads of those their bloody hands cannot reach. Salman Rushdie is one of the widely known cases.

* Slaveholder Islam is not content to limit its inhuman barbaric system to its traditional homelands. It has penetrated millions of adherents throughout Europe, America, and much of the world. Many of the new arrivals from the failed Islamic states do not realize that it is Islam that is the root cause of their centuries of backwardness and misery. These imprinted-from-birth Muslims are robots who are programmed to do all they can in obedience to the dictates of Muhammad’s Mein Kempf, the Quran (My Ummah).

Beliefs are the impetus to action. Islamic belief is the cause of the misery visited upon Muslims and non-Muslims alike. Islam’s dogma is anathema to every provision of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

If you love the Islamic terror manual, the Quran, and what it perpetrates, that’s bad love. If you hate all the terrible things that Islam advocates and carries out, that’s good hate.
Muslims, the world over, must make a Herculean effort to de-program themselves of the barbaric ideology of Islam; the free people should assist the Muslims in this endeavor and together we can all embrace the promptings of good hate and reject the dictates of bad love.

About two years ago, this administration used their best judgment.  America withdrew from Afghanistan.  The withdrawal left behind material, money, and personnel.  However you view the decision, this administration is responsible for the results.  What are those results?

We want to thank Marc Abear for this Op-Ed. Please submit it to Editor@GraniteGrok.com.

Today Afghanistan has again become a center for planning acts of terror.  That is the Pentagon’s assessment.  The information comes from recently leaked intel documents in the news.  They are corroboration of the criticisms of security officials made at the time.

The Washington Post says the Islamic State in Afghanistan has at least 15 terror plots in the works mostly focused in Europe and Asia.  They include churches, businesses, embassies, and sporting events.

The Biden administration says the U.S. retains the ability to remove terrorists from the battlefield even without a permanent troop presence on the ground in Afghanistan.  There’s nothing here for us to worry about.  Do you believe that?

The recently leaked intel documents say: ISIS is developing a cost-effective network for carrying out terror operations around the world relying on resources outside Afghanistan.  The model allows ISIS to overcome obstacles, shorten the timeline on terror plots, reducing the likelihood of detection and efforts to thwart their plans.

From prior Congressional testimony, we know ISIS is expected to be back in the terror business by this August.  So the administration has traded Afghanistan which we had a lid on… but now we don’t; for Ukraine.  Our national interest in Ukraine was …?  Burisma? Money laundering? Anti-Semitism? Anti-Christian activity?

When we retreated from Afghanistan we left our information networks in tatters.  The result is we don’t have the full picture.  We do get some information from ISIS’s use of email and phones.  The problem wasn’t that we left but how we did it.  We have allowed ISIS to re-grow.

Being accused of a crime, you did not commit is terrifying. Very often, the person being accused has to suffer in silence because speaking before a trial or a determination could jeopardize the outcome. Yet not speaking could jeopardize the outcome too.

You can review our ‘Op-Ed Guidelines‘ on the FAQ Page.

At Stanford University, female soccer star Katie Meyer took her own life after she was accused of spilling coffee on a male athlete. She was found dead in her room with a letter from the Dean of Students open on her laptop. She was given an impossible choice: to speak to the disciplinary committee and potentially jeopardize her assumption of innocence or not speak and thus be presumed guilty for not speaking.

Katie’s parents have sued Stanford University, but to all intents and purposes, they should be suing the US Department of Education and the Department of Justice since these departments effectively endorsed the disciplinary process that led to Katie’s death on April 4, 2011, when the unregulated “Dear Colleague” Title IX letter was introduced at the University of New Hampshire by Vice President Joe Biden.

Representatives from both departments flanked him. The non-partisan FIRE issued a statement declaring the dangers of such a letter. Senators Lamar Alexander and James Lankford criticized the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights for its overreach. Not enough people listened, and as a result, those falsely accused of sexual assault could now face the death penalty in Florida.

What started in America has spread to other countries. The United Kingdom has adopted “Operation Soteria” with American Betsy Stanko behind it. What real qualifications does Betsy Stanko have? She’s a feminist activist who has mustered her way into being an expert and advisor on sexual assault allegations. PR goes a long way for those out to make a career out of selling snake oil to snake charmers.

So here are some things that I believe may be helpful if you find yourself or a loved one being accused of a crime they did not commit:

1) As a rule, I would say that you should stay off social media. I would screen capture but delete all social media accounts. However, you may wish to seek legal advice on this as you don’t want to be accused of deleting evidence either.

2) Do not talk to police, investigators, friends, or anyone who may be used against you. You would be surprised how many people will yield to money offers to follow a narrative to get someone convicted.

3) If police, investigators, or administrators ask you about an incident, do not speak to them without seeking legal advice.

4) Investigate the people offering legal advice. Investigate the investigators, administrators, and police – search back through several pages on the internet for “vs. X name” “vs. X school/business,” etc. Find professional relationship maps. Look on Linked In. Research the hell out of them so you are fully aware of conflicts of interest, undue influence, etc. Find out relationships between them and charities or non-profits, and previous cases they have been involved in that might be similar to yours. Are you the victim of copycat claims?

5) Investigate the person or people making the false allegation. Were they encouraged to do so? Who are their friends, associates, and colleagues? Are they likely to be drawn to money offers?

6) If there is news media or social media, keep copies of all of it. Investigate the journalists. Find out what other articles they have done. You can often find links between journalists and certain attorneys or non-profits or causes. Start to decipher lobby speak in articles and see if you are targeted as part of a lobbying effort to push through certain bills or acts. For example, Evan Rachel Wood accused Marilyn Manson of sexual assault, but she decided to become an activist after Donald Trump won the election in 2016. She had a non-profit that is tied to the HBO documentary “Phoenix Rising” and the “Phoenix Act” advocating for the removal of a statute of limitations for bringing claims of sexual assault.

7) Research the tax reports (IRS Form 990 in the US) for any non-profit involved. Research statements by these non-profits. Find out their relationship with police, prosecutors, and lawmakers.

8) FOLLOW THE MONEY.

9) Write out – or have an advocate who is not emotionally traumatized by the event – write down the sequence of events. Fill it in with documentation (texts, emails, phone calls, or whatever) from the very beginning. Every detail is important. Research the social media accounts of the complainant and their associates. Find out who follows them, who they follow, and who is behind them.

10) Don’t rely on your attorney to be the savior. Good attorneys are excellent, but some attorneys are deal-makers who have a pattern of dealing with wrongful convictions, agreeing to compromises so that they and their counterparts keep in business with each other. But that might result in selling you out, compromising your position. Lawyers’ bread is buttered only partly with clients. The rest of it is buttered with other attorneys, judges, prosecutors, and police. Find out whether your interests come second to their interests in their professional club and find out if there is a conflict of interests in representing you versus their acceptance in that club.

11) Inspect, in detail, again and again, and again, statements, articles, documents, and charges that are made against you. Look up the rules for these charges. Look up the rules for the people bringing them, the institutions, and their standards of conduct. If you can’t get hold of them, ask for them. Ask for everything. You are defending your reputation, your career, your life.

12) Knowledge is Power. I’ve read many accounts of people feeling helpless when they or a loved one faces charges for something they haven’t done. You don’t have to be helpless. You can take control of the situation by researching everything and being prepared.

It looks overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. Police, investigators, and administrators are beholden to their employers. They follow the instructions of their employers, who very often adopt those from third parties who may be contractually benefiting from flawed investigations.

Once you are aware of all of this, I believe you will be in a stronger position to fight it. Police don’t like to be answerable to the public, nor do prosecutors or judges. But they are all hired and paid for by the public and thus accountable to the public. School and University investigators are hired by the institution who receive money from the government or donors and are therefore answerable to boards of trustees. There are insurance companies as well as underwriters. It’s not good for these to be paying out for false allegations.

The #MeToo movement and Title IX Campus Sexual Assault Narrative have thrived on propaganda with Government operatives from the Department of Justice Office of Violence Against Women and the Department of Education Office of Civil Rights behind them. They are largely political. Sexual assault and domestic violence are not political nor tied to any particular gender, contrary to popular narratives.

I will close with the following disclaimer: I am a layperson who did a lot of research. I am not an expert beyond the research I have done, and I’m not a professional, but I put this out there because I think it may be useful.

A documentary has been produced in the U.K. entitled ‘Adult Human Female.’ The documentary discusses gender identity ideology, women’s rights, and the absolutely abhorrent way women are being treated in the U.K.

The left is so horrified that women are actually speaking up about their rights as women that Trans Fascists even blocked a viewing of the movie so no one could see it (for a second time).

 

Trans Fascists stop women from watching a movie about women.

In the movie, they speak about how this ideology was born in North America. It doesn’t surprise me at all that some lunatic in a university would think up something like this and then gets the backing of billionaires to push it. This is already happening in the United States. In fact, it’s already here in many places and in many different ways, including New Hampshire.

In 2018, the governor signed House Bill 1319 into law with the help of some Republicans. This bill was also known as the ‘trans bill’ because it allows men who ‘believe’ they are women to be actually considered women in public policy. I fought against this legislation back then and said many of the same things the women in the documentary are saying.

We’re now seeing what this type of legislation has done to women around the country in sports, in prisons, in women’s private spaces. Those who pushed this legislation were warned but didn’t care. They caved to out-of-state activists funded by leftist billionaires to erase women and girls.

In the U.S., it is white left-wing middle-class women who push for men to be considered the same as women. There are various groups of people who disagree on most everything politically, except for gender identity ideology. Radical left-wing feminists, Christian organizations, Conservatives, Libertarians, and many in between, all fight together for this one cause – to stop the erasure of women and girls. This documentary barely scratches the surface of what this gender identity ideology has done to an entire generation of children.

The women in this video come from various occupations and walks of life. A couple even identify as Socialists and Marxists, but on this critical topic to society as a whole, we come together and agree. The leftists (aka Democrats and their allies like Governor Sununu) who push laws regarding this ideology, are the new faces of Authoritarianism.

 

If you’re a woman, watch this movie. If you’re a man who supports women and girls, watch this movie. This is a fight that humanity cannot afford to lose.

Even that Establishment-mouthpiece Michael Graham has been forced to admit what I have been saying for a long, long time. Sun-King Chris Sununu is running a make-believe, look-at-me, look-at-me, everybody-look-at-me “Presidential campaign” … a dishonest, shallow exercise in narcissism. From “journalist” Mikey Graham:

“Being anti-Trump isn’t necessarily a problem, if you’re out backing that up by campaigning,” one longtime New Hampshire Republican told NHJournal. “But he’s not. He’s not going to Iowa. He’s not building an organization. So it raises questions.”

Trump talked more Sununu on WMUR after his speech. “He made a big mistake by running for president, if he’s even running,” Trump said. “Guys like Sununu, they’ve got to come up with something.”

“He’s just a little bit cuckoo,” Trump added.

And both Trump and Mikey Graham left out the worst part … Sun-King Sununu has TOTALLY screwed New Hampshire: the 2022 midterm results prove that Sun-King’s COVID-tyranny, his embrace of all things woke, his crony-capitalism passed off as “small government” and “local control” has turned the State DEEP BLUE. There is NO succession plan for when Sun-King rides off to his contributor’s gig on MSNBC … there is ONLY Governor Chris Pappas. Sun-King has screwed … TOTALLY SCREWED … New Hampshire.

In Joe Biden’s early morning announcement video on Tuesday, he made numerous references to restoring Democracy and the Soul of the Country. We have a serious problem here as the actions of Joe Biden and the Democrat party show a lack of understanding or disrespect for Democracy.

He also mentioned restoring our Freedoms, and we see a disconnect between his video and reality.

On the day Biden formally announced his candidacy for re-election, the DNC released a statement that no debates would be held during the primary season. This unprecedented move is obviously made to protect Joe Biden, but what about the right of Robert F. Kennedy Jr and Marianne Williamson, the two declared candidates today, to question Biden on his record and to let America know their positions on significant issues? This DNC decision disrespects the other candidates and the American voters, but that is how Biden and the Democrats see Democracy. These two people, and anyone else who announces their candidacy, deserve a chance to be heard, and it is not consistent with a Democracy to deny them their opportunity.

Karine Jean-Pierre prefaced her briefing yesterday to clarify that she would not discuss any campaign issues or questions from the podium. She had no problem interjecting into her comments and responses negative comments about MAGA Republicans. KJP knows that any reference to MAGA attack Donald Trump and his supporters. She skirts the Hatch Act by not mentioning Trump by name, but the intent is obvious, and she should be called out for it.

So let us talk about the freedoms and direction of the country that Joe Biden claims he is so concerned about and responsible for. Our incomes are no longer able to sustain our lifestyles. The inflation we experience is a direct result of Biden’s policies. He claims he inherited an economy in free fall, but inflation was at 1.2%, and we were in positive growth coming out of the Pandemic. The 12 million jobs Biden claims to have created are the 12 million lost at the start of COVID. Biden has created nothing. It costs 20-30% more to heat our homes which have lost significant value as interest rates have slowed the real estate market. The rising interest rates are supposed to slow the Biden Inflation and hold off a recession.

We no longer feel safe in our communities as the Left has decimated our police forces, and Fentanyl coming from China through Mexico is killing 100,000 young people yearly. Parents are no longer part of their children’s educational process as teachers help our children decide on their future gender. You expect us to supply benefits and free education for the illegal immigrants you welcome into our country and pay for our neighbor’s children’s student loans. These financial burdens you have created for Americans have more of us living paycheck to paycheck. Our 401Ks have lost so much value our retirement years look far less inviting than planned. Sorry, Joe, we are not enjoying your plan for America.

This vision is the America you have given us, Joe. And you tell us you are not finished yet. How much more damage do you have planned? You may not be finished, but we are finished with you.

Look at me! Look at me! Everybody look at me! Poor Sun-King Sununu … not many people are taking his make-believe, pretend Presidential campaign seriously.

The post Friday Meme Overflow-Overflow appeared first on Granite Grok.

Since 2020, I have spent about 40 hours in the Courtroom. I can’t say that Justice has been served. The Court has shown a disturbing level of patience and acceptance for City Attorneys and employees who are willfully misrepresenting information, lacking candor, and, in some instances, boldly lying.

Right-to-Know cases are being handled like criminal trial matters. The Court has shifted the burden on the record requester to prove the City should have provided the information rather than holding the City accountable to prove the case for nondisclosure. Citizens do not make good Trial Attorneys.

I have been amazed at how freely City Attorney’s violate their Professional Conduct Rules for candor and deliberately mislead the Court. Apparently, this is Standard Operating Procedure for today’s Courtroom. In these “criminal” Right-to-Know matters, the city is all about creating doubt by fabricating stories about how our records are stored.

In one instance, Attorney Bolton told Judge Temple that the City of Nashua prints out emails, stores them in paper form in 29,000 different files and then deletes the emails. There was no written policy or unwritten practice to do so. It was just a cockamamie statement made to sway the Judge to rule against an email records request. But more importantly, it made no sense and was unreasonable. The Judge was silent on this statement.

During a Trial, witness Kim Kleiner, under questioning, told the Court that she was aware that the written policy on record storage was incorrect, and that the policy had changed but was not updated. When Citizens requested, under the Right-to-Know Law, records for retention, Ms. Kleiner willfully provided the incorrect written policy, failing to provide an explanation that the policy had been changed but was not updated in writing. The Judge was silent on this testimony.

In another instance, Attorney Leonard wrote a recent Supreme Court Appellant Brief where she referenced, 13 times, that the City complied with the State required Record Retention laws and that the employee star witness, a supervisor clerk, had provided uncontroverted testimony and was an uncontroverted expert, always complying with the law. However, the Trial Transcript documented that the Supervisor was not aware of the City’s email retention policy and had never heard of the State Statute for Record Retention. Does this pass the red-face test? It does if you are Attorney Leonard, whose deceit is second nature.

To continue with her pattern and practice of deceit and misrepresentation, Attorney Leonard told the Supreme Court during March Oral Arguments that citizens must request their records through the right agency within the City. Since the City won’t tell citizens where or how the records are stored, the right agency is a mystery.

Deception, illusion, and dishonesty is Nashua’s game. The Court’s tolerance for these tactics has denied our right to keep our government open, accessible, and accountable.

If you had doubts about the Press being a wholly owned subsidiary of the Democrat Party Political Machine, kiss that goodbye. For this to work, the White House and the Reporters had to agree to questions in advance to which staffers would write answers the president would read.

Leader of the free world? He’s not even free to answer random questions from the so-called watchdog media. Are you Ridin with that Biden? If you are, you should be embarrassed.

Here are a few more pics shared in the RNC Twitter thread.

 

Another one of Biden’s notes called the press conference a “tough Q&A.”

 

A third note indicated to Biden (“YOU”) that he was, in fact, an attendee at the “prep” session in his own office.

 

Did he read the word “you” because that would not be out of the ordinary? But think about that detail. Joe Biden was in the meeting but needs notes reminding him that he was there. Was he? He’ll read whatever they put in front of him and, often, not well.

And at how many meetings is he (The President) absent? The notes imply he is either too addled to remember or that he is not in every meeting at which one might expect him to be present.

None of that should surprise anyone paying attention, but there it is.

Exit Question: if planted questions and prepared responses is a tough Q&A, … does that mean Xi Jinping is giving him cheat sheets when it’s time to talk to China? How about Zelenskyy?

Apparently Nikki Haley sees Putin whenever she sees Ron DeSantis … and Ukraine when she sees Disney … Florida is Russia … and Disney’s groomer-in-chief, Bob Iger, is Zelensky. Yup … Nikki is more concerned with protecting Ukraine’s borders … much more concerned … than with protecting children from globalist-corporations whose business-model centers around the grooming of children. Nikki is a neocon, corporatist who despises actual GOP voters:

Haley responds to Disney's lawsuit against DeSantis: "If Disney would like to move their hundreds of thousands of jobs to South Carolina and bring the billions of dollars with them, I’ll let them know I’ll be happy to meet them in South Carolina and introduce them to the governor… pic.twitter.com/GfcWUyCa9r

A dark 90-second video released at 6:00 AM on a Tuesday exemplifies the first term of the second-worst President in our history. Reusing his overworked lines from 2020, he says he will unite the country and finish the work of his first term.

He said in 2020 that he wanted to restore the soul of America. He stole our soul, as that was all we had left after he spent our future on clever-sounding plans that were greener than Kermit.

Is Joe so unsure of his commitment to run at 82 that he released his announcement as the sun was rising on the Capitol—no prime-time announcement to get the most impact? We are seeing the start of another cellar campaign. In utter disrespect for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. And Maryann Williamson, who have announced their campaign for the Democrat candidate, Joe has announced that there will be no debates and primaries. So much for Democracy, Joe.

Joe also found sufficient time in the short presentation to insult many of us who claim to be MAGA Republicans. We are not drawn together by being called radical extremists and portrayed as violent individuals with no concern for the country. We are what the acronym says. We want to Make America Great Again, as we were doing before Biden started his first term. Joe is not a Unifier but a Divider, and four more years of his rhetoric and actions and we may be too far apart ever to come together.

The Debt Ceiling is a prime example of Biden not being a man of his word. He will not even meet with Kevin McCarthy to work out a compromise on the budget and ceiling. He and his mouthpiece, Karine Jean-Pierre, simply harp on the MAGA moniker. Maybe they are both “One-Trick-Ponies .”

Kamala Harris was seen in the video but never mentioned by name. Harris is a negative that he will need to answer to for the duration of his campaign. With President Biden starting a second term at 82, the topic of Harris stepping in as President must be addressed, and nobody will like the answer. Biden is the least favorite President ever to seek re-election. Kamala Harris is even less desirable with both Democrats and Republicans.

In addition to the daybreak video, it symbolizes what this campaign will be. There is no way Biden’s keepers would let him go live with the kick-off, and the entire campaign will be low-key and orchestrated. There will be few opportunities for the media to ask questions, and the possibility of blunders will be minimized. The only interaction the President will have to navigate will be the debates with the Republican candidate, and the press will be in his corner every step of the way.

The other major press release today involved the First Son. The judge presiding over the child-support case involving the President’s denied granddaughter begins on Monday, and Hunter has been ordered to appear in person. The Hunter story will supply much more drama and excitement than the senior Biden could ever deliver. He can no longer hide from justice in the White House, and this trial could expose far more that the Biden family wants the public to see.
