If There is No Fraud, Let us See the Emails

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-07-16 10:00 +0000
If any Nashua resident feels that the city is transparent, try obtaining the redacted New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) emails that describe the cryptic scheme that resulted in the Performing Arts Center deal. The City does not want residents to see what was done behind closed doors. The Court just denied my Petition for an ... Read more

Silly Me …

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-07-16 02:00 +0000
The Left is always yammering about “Reproductive Healthcare,” which ALWAYS requires Government intervention, even as the baby killers keep saying that only women and doctors should be involved in such a decision to kill a baby. SideNote: WAIT!  WHAT??  They KNOW they know what a woman is now? What transwoman can deliver a baby; what ... Read more

Quick Update On the Site Update

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-07-16 01:31 +0000
We ran into some issues with the initial launch of this iteration of The ‘Grok and had to do some tap dancing back and forth to fix them. I won’t bore you with details, but it wasn’t fun for me. We went live again at about 8:16 ET this evening. We seem to be stable ... Read more

Israel – Ongoing links, memes, and commentary

Granite Grok - Tue, 2024-07-16 00:00 +0000
This is an attempt to “break out” memes, links, and my commentary about the situation in Israel / the Middle East so as to not overload the standard meme posts that I do.  In these Israel-related posts I don’t just have memes such, but lots of informative links as well as hopefully-insightful commentary. Note that ... Read more

If I’m Not Entitled to My Opinion I am a Slave to Yours

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-07-15 22:00 +0000
There is no shortage of content regarding the sanctity of free speech. Liberty by any name is impossible without it, and we know that Free Speech includes the right to be wrong because the government, exercising its right to unbridled expression, is wrong proudly and often. So, when the government or its advocates insist your opinion should be ... Read more

Is Jim Babcock Going To Try Stealing Signs Again?

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-07-15 20:00 +0000
We’ve covered a bunch of sign stealers over the years – almost back to the time when we started 18 years ago. After all, it comes around every year – hopefuls trying to exercise their Free Speech Rights in getting their message (“I’M RUNNING! VOTE FOR ME!”) out to the electorate. And every year, we ...

Remove Your Children From Social and Emotional (SEL) Learning, Here’s Why

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-07-15 18:00 +0000
As Social and Emotional Learning transitions to Transformative SEL, you will see more radicalized political agendas. Second Step, which is used in many NH schools, shows how some of that will be introduced to your children. CASEL is the gatekeeper for all SEL programs. In one of CASEL’s videos, you can hear how the trainers ... Read more

Breaking: Trump Classified Docs Case Dismissed

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-07-15 15:00 +0000
America’s Top Cop, Attorney General Merrick “Thank God He’s Not on the Supreme Court” Garland, made a significant error in his appointment of Jack Smith as Special prosecutor, according to Federal Judge Aileen Cannon. He violated the appointments clause, which has hence invalidated the case. Cannon accepted a Trump team motion to Dismiss. This is ... Read more

The Character of a Man and an Iconic Campaign Image

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-07-15 14:00 +0000
I spent most of last night, after hearing that Trump was almost assassinated at his PA rally last night, going through all of the Right side of the Blogosphere to gather information. After all, crowdsourcing is what got the ball REALLY rolling (e.g., Remember Dan Rather’s lies over Bush II’s military career only to be ... Read more

“Circle Back” Psaki Is Suddenly Afraid Of Violent Rhetoric?

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-07-15 12:00 +0000
Jen Psaki is scared. She’s worried about the post-Trump assassination attempt blamed on a violent left-wing rhetoric narrative. Now that someone has attempted what many Democrats have been implying, inferring, or suggesting, she’s afraid there might be retaliation. Quick reminder, Jen. Who was it that posed with Trump’s severed head after he won in 2016? ... Read more

We are kicking off a new effort to provide information, support, and connections to families who want to explore education options outside of the traditional public school. Our main population is conservative families who are not happy with public schools but who aren’t aware of all their options. Our non-profit organization and website have just ... Read more

So, About that New Web Site of Yours …

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-07-15 09:00 +0000
The latest iteration of The ‘Grok went live when the Trump assassination attempt story broke, so there was a lot going on while we were working on getting this thing up and running. I was updating both the old and new sites with the Trump story because we’d already moved the data for the live ... Read more

Murphy: Social Justice Failure: Workers AREN’T Equal

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-07-15 02:00 +0000

This is one of the basic economic ideas of the Left: reparations and retribution. And they never, EVER care about the results of their policies. Emphasis mine: Doubt me? Just look at the 10s of thousands of fast food workers that have been fired or laid off simply because California Legislators decided that they can jack up “minimum wages” to the point where the businesses can no longer…

MacDonald: June Wasn’t So Hot After All

Granite Grok - Mon, 2024-07-15 00:00 +0000

I’m sure we can all sit back and relax, knowing they will announce how July 2024 was the hottest on record. I won’t be, but it is good to be prepared, and as a primer, June 2024 was not the hottest June ‘on record’ either. June is a great month. Schools let out, summer’s here, and the weather is getting warmer, but not everywhere, not all the time, and often not as much as they’d like you to…

Murphy: The “Value Add” Rationale is Clobbering the Unions

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-07-14 22:00 +0000

When a law is necessary to keep an organization’s membership from leaving (e.g., a closed union shop that demands membership before someone can work there), it is ripe for competition. In this case, it was the same SCOTUS decision that made it possible for me NOT to have to join a union Janus v. AFSCME (2018). While that decision was over, having to pay a union for “collective bargaining” (ruling…

Roper: “Green” Energy Policy Punishes Those on Home Heating Assistance

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-07-14 20:00 +0000

The Equity Advisory Group (EAG) to the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) heard testimony on July 9th from Richard Giddings of the Department of Children and Families about how the Clean Heat Standard law would impact low-income Vermonters who receive home heating assistance in the winter. The news was not good for LIHEAP (Low Income Heating Assistance Program) participants. A little background…

Op-Ed: Who Is The Dictator

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-07-14 18:00 +0000

Barack Obama, having been ordered by George and Alex Soros, sent the memo to the leftist faithful through the mouth of David Axelrod (who looks like Hitler) to always call President Donald Trump a dictator. Any politically astute observer knows this is simply the most recent example of Demolitioncrat projection. The dictator surely is the Biden Administration and its war on conservatives.

MacDonald: Slippery Slope: Canada Kills 15,000* in 2023 as Disabled ‘Fight’ for Their Lives

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-07-14 16:00 +0000

Canada wasn’t the first, but they’ve become something of a poster child for Medically induced death. Euphemistically referred to as medical aid in dying (unless it’s capital punishment), rising numbers of Canadians are being lined up at the assisted suicide death mills for discorporation. It is true that some will or are members of the advertised target demographic, but as we’ve noted…

The Conservatarian Exchange Podcast #214

The Liberty Block - Sun, 2024-07-14 15:13 +0000

Daniel reported from UK on their recent elections; Nigel Farage will not be totally insignificant, although in the minority in parliament; Daniel also reported and opined on the French elections and how they rigged their election against Le Pen’s party; Project 2025 and Trump’s purported distancing from it; is the left pulling an Alinsky against Biden? How the media did such a quick 100% turnaround on Biden’s mental acuity; Would publicizing the Hur audio cause Biden to withdraw? How much will abortion affect pro-Trump voters? Discussion on gun rights; Lazer chimed in to discuss Ukraine/Russia; discussion on military personnel operating out of hospitals and if that makes the hospitals a legitimate target; (we apologize for the interruption caused by a windows popup);

The post The Conservatarian Exchange Podcast #214 appeared first on The Liberty Block.

Oliver Wolcott – Old World and New

Granite Grok - Sun, 2024-07-14 14:00 +0000

One of the most illustrious signers as far as their personal influence was Oliver Wolcott. The Wolcott family had an impressive pedigree in the old world as well as the new. He descended from a distinguished line of political leaders, attorneys, landholders, judges, and medical doctors. Oliver Wolcott attended Yale University, graduating in 1747, and was at the top of his class.
