Yes, Virginia, There Is a ‘Constitutional Crisis’

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-02-13 21:00 +0000
On September 21st, 1897, The Sun – a New York newspaper – published an editorial by Francis Pharcellus Church. In it, he assured 8-year-old Virgina O’Hanlon that there was a Santa Claus. In 1897, Philip O’Hanlon, a surgeon, was asked by his eight-year-old daughter, Virginia O’Hanlon, whether Santa Claus existed. His answer did not convince her, and Virginia ... Read more

America’s Coming Back

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-02-13 19:00 +0000
There are some mornings in which thoughts and ideas come flying by with the ease and grace of a flock of geese flying south for the winter.  On this day before Lincoln’s birthday, this is the right time for printing such high flying thoughts. At this three-week point in Trump’s second term, the democrats have ... Read more

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-02-13 17:30 +0000
By a vote of 52-48, the US Senate has confirmed Robert F. Kenedy Jr. as the ew Director of the Federal Department of Health and Human Services. Cocaine Mitch was the lone Republican holdout. “…Vice President Mike Pence’s organization, Advancing American Freedom, had been urging senators to vote against confirming Kennedy Jr. over his past ...

Boys in Girls Sports vs. Federal Funding … Fight!

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-02-13 17:00 +0000
Trump won the Presidency because of stupidity like this. 79% of adults polled agree that boys/men should not play on girls/women sports teams in K-12. But the Minnesota State High School League has told its schools that it and they must obey based on Minnesota law: “In Minnesota, participation and eligibility of transgender student-athletes is ...

How Many ‘Unelected’ Co-Presidents Did Joe Biden Have, Again?

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-02-13 15:00 +0000
The noise about Elon Musk is not about the separation of powers, a Constitutional Crisis, or destroying America or our Democracy. The last one angers me because these people should know we are a Republic, not a Democracy. The noise about Elon Musk ranges from he is unelected and unconfirmed to a crook, a thief, ... Read more

Everyone in DC Better “Lawyer Up”

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-02-13 13:00 +0000
When we watch television at my house, we watch a lot of crime and mystery programming. I call them murder shows. Some are more intense than others, darker, but Hollywood, movies, and television – the entertainment industry – always make it a priority to frame lawyering up as a bad thing. As if trying to ...

It Is Okay to Abolish the Department of Education

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-02-13 11:00 +0000
A Federal Government Publication Affirms That Education is “A matter reserved for the states” About ten years ago, I stopped in a library in Medfield, Massachusetts, a town about 40 miles West and South of Boston.  At its book sale, I found “Formation of the Union Under the Constitution” in 1943 which was published to ...

Making American Cars Affordable Again?

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-02-13 03:00 +0000
When the people who hate people take control, their policies always give them away. They make motor and heating fuel, water, food, electricity, rent, almost anything and everything more expensive – while insisting they are fighting for minorities and lower-income “families,” and the middle class – whom they hate most of all. They hate people, ... Read more

Your State House 2/7/2025

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-02-13 01:00 +0000
This week, my committee continued public hearings. HB 180, on critical incident stress management teams, made some minor clarifying tweaks and deleted the requirement for a qualifying test by the International Critical Incident Stress Foundation. This national group gives standards for training, but the post-training test costs $400, which is too much for many of ... Read more

USAID and Globalist Plans to Dominate Food Supplies

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-02-12 23:00 +0000
The totalitarian possibilities of the UN/WEF cabal of multinational “stakeholders” (who seek to own all the world’s steak) is neither the Left- nor the Right-wing, displaying more of a chimera displaying slogans common to both. Kissinger’s proposal in his 1974 Kissinger Report to control human population growth for “national security” and industrial protectionism was couched in glowing ... Read more

End Out-Of-State Students Extra Constitutional Voting Rights

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-02-12 21:00 +0000
Newly Minted New Hampshire State Senator Victoria Sullivan has a bill before the Senate that would prohibit student ID as proof of residency for voting purposes. SB223 had its first hearing yesterday morning, and it did not lack for naysayers, especially since the bill had a hook. This bill provides for in-state tuition at any ... Read more

When Is a Tariff Not a Tariff?

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-02-12 19:00 +0000
Riffing off my previous post about Trump (and us) being called a fascist over at “Lessons from the past about how to deal with American tariffs” I had ended it by admitting that I riled up the proprietor of Carbon Upfront!, Lloyd Alter over how Trump used the threat of a tariff against Canada and ...

Civilization Is The Price We Pay For Taxes

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-02-12 17:00 +0000
Wait, isn’t that backwards? Didn’t Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. famously say that ‘Taxes are the price we pay for civilization’? He did, but he had it backwards. Taxes are, as Tommy Shelby said of politics in general, a way of deliberately making things better for some people by deliberately making them worse for others. ... Read more

The Democrat Machine Is Sputtering Like An EV In Need Of A Charge

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-02-12 15:00 +0000
If only resurrecting the Democratic Machine was as easy as plugging in for a charge. But as Democrats are finding out, their effort to build vast numbers of charging stations was a flop. The Democrat batteries are out of juice, and they have no alternative mode of transportation. They probably wish they had invested in ... Read more

Fauci’s Pardon Can’t Save Him From Prosecution?

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-02-12 13:00 +0000
Joe Biden’s pardon of little Tony Fauci may not work out as well as everyone feared. Biden signed a blanket pardon excusing the creepy lying douchebag of any crimes between 2014 and 2024. The silver lining is that Congress can call him in to testify, and the pardon abrogates his Fifth Amendment right to refuse ... Read more

Resolve the NH Education Crisis

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-02-12 11:00 +0000
Many people are giving up on public schools. Districts demand more and more money; student proficiency keeps dropping; and federal mandates keep stacking up, distracting students away from academics and towards social-emotional learning, behavior modification, and other federal agendas. Rather than fix the public schools, some prefer universal Education Freedom Accounts, really vouchers, without any ... Read more

The Skinny on Vegetable Fats vs Beef Tallow

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-02-12 03:00 +0000
Popular food chain Steak ‘n Shake is stirring the MAHA pot by switching cooking oils from vegetable to animal, as in tallow. However, the transition away from trans-fats has nothing to do with transgenderism or the Trump transition – it has to do with “real science” and overwhelming customer preferences for healthier dining choices, even ...
