Do You Need To Hit The Pause Button

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-15 20:00 +0000
The amount of negative information we are barraged with daily is enough to make the most stable people anxious. The economy, border, crime, and inflation are the topics that dominate the 24-hour news cycle. Elections have gotten more volatile in recent years, but this one between Trump and Harris seems exceedingly so. We look to ... Read more

Don’t Jail Parents for School Shootings – Arm Teachers

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-15 18:00 +0000
Understandably, we want to blame someone besides the 14-year-old who murdered four people last week at Apalachee High School in Georgia. People are shocked and upset that the father taught the boy to shoot and hunt and bought the boy a rifle for Christmas. But that doesn’t mean it made any sense for police to ... Read more

Oh, ABC, you have done it again. In a solo press conference, Kamala Harris appeared on the ABC affiliate in Philadelphia to answer five questions.

Fisking CNN’s Hurricane Francine Coverage (‘cuz They Lie)

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-15 12:00 +0000
We followed Tropical Storm Francine from her infancy, and as expected, it hit Louisiana as a Category 2 hurricane. The Louisana coast is a dangerous place to take up residence if you are allergic to storm surges. It floods quickly and often, so the media can’t resist the urge to break out the climate hyperbole. ... Read more

ABC Moderator Straight Up Admits They Had To Tip The Scales Against Trump

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-15 10:00 +0000
If you watched Tuesday’s ABC debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, you saw that the moderators were doing everything they could to help Harris. A recent fluff piece on ABC’s Lindsey Davis in the LA Times not only proves this to be fact, but she’s bragging about their behind-the-scenes plan to ensure ... Read more

Will Lily Get 50% of the GOP Money?

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-09-15 00:00 +0000
Let’s talk about GOP money for federal office campaigns.  2024 is not a senatorial year, so that simplifies the discussion. There are two seats in the House, each representing 50% of Granite Staters.  One would think that the pie is divided evenly, and the two pieces would go to Lily Tang Williams and Councilor Russell Prescott, ...

Are We Feeding The Woke Right Animals?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-09-14 22:00 +0000
I accept that this is a strange headline. The woke right; what could you possibly mean by that? As a way of explaining, let’s call it the appetizer; consider the desire not to get caught up in your echo chamber. The urge to at least appear as if you are not trapped in a world ... Read more

Nashua’s Misuse of Bond Money

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-09-14 20:00 +0000
Many Nashua citizens have lost confidence in our city officials’ ability to handle FUNDING complex municipal projects transparently.  One recent project even questioned whether the city has complied with NH State laws.  This project was the Performing Arts Center (PAC). The result has been a loss of confidence in City Hall and a more costly new Arts ...

Sununu Signs Another ‘Meaningless’ Voter ID Law

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-09-14 18:00 +0000
HB1569, the latest New Hampshire voter ID law that dares to limit elections and ballot decisions to actual granite staters, was enrolled on June 13th. If someone was keen to make a splash and a statement, they could have gotten this to the Governor’s Desk faster than the Democrats would file lawsuits to overturn it. ... Read more

Independents Won The Debate

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-09-14 14:00 +0000
Donald Trump had a horrible night, and many, including me, felt he lost the debate. I thought the former president had let this opportunity to regain the White House slip away. I may have missed an angle on the outcome of what may be the only face-to-face of the 2024 election. Trump lost, but Kamala ... Read more

Are Cat-Eating Haitians Saving The Planet From Climate Change?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-09-14 12:00 +0000
The Left is spinning faster than an Atlantic Basin Cyclone to dismiss claims that Kamal’s border-jumping Haitians are eating people’s pets. And let’s be honest. It’s not a matter of whether it is true or not; they can’t afford to lose the liberal cat-lady vote. The deceitful, flip-flopping Border Tsar needs them, so claims of ... Read more

Why the Family Is Not the Model for the State

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-09-14 10:00 +0000
For centuries, advocates for greater state power have claimed that modern sovereign states are like families. The value of the strategy is clear: most people view families as both necessary and natural. Even in our current age of widespread divorce and single parents, the idea of “family” (variously defined) remains enduringly popular. Thus, for a ... Read more

Another ‘Public Health’ Crisis of It’s Own Making

Granite Grok - Sat, 2024-09-14 00:00 +0000
I have long argued that the cure for what ails our kids is to fix the public schools. High cost and poor outcomes aside, the rise in physical and mental health issues in kids is directly attributable to the ideological capture of public education. The schools made kids sick by forcing them to wear masks. ... Read more
