The post The New England Take: Allowing Homeless Camping Hurts Homeless and the Woke Do Not Care About That! appeared first on Granite Grok.

I will start by saying that I was saving this statement as a draft for filing time in 2 weeks, but I was really annoyed by the deceptive and disingenuous NH Journal article promoting Kelly Ayotte and thought “why not NOW?”

Some readers might already be asking who cares what I think because I’m just an ordinary commoner like most of us and it’s a very reasonable question.  To that, I will point out that I am Chuck’s biggest critic because he voted the wrong way on 11/19/21 while many of us watched in appalling disbelief.  However, believers and secular people alike do point out the merits of forgiveness and I am unfit to dispute them.  This election cycle, I’ve been demanding that he make a PROPER amends to ALL of NH in the public square.  As time has marched on, more and more people have resigned themselves to “suck it up” and vote for him as the lesser of two evils while I was stubbornly digging in my heels.  I would regularly recall a politically astute person lecturing me, as a then-private citizen who “knows stuff,” that voting for the lesser of two evils is how we all got into this hot mess that we’re in.  That was said to me over 2 years ago and this person’s tune has changed this year.

Chuck knew that I knew he was stumping locally on May 8 and was presumably expecting to be asked about 11/19/21.  The NRCC forbids recording, so I can only give you my word of mouth and who the multitude of local witnesses were.  In his speech, he said he has made mistakes.  I immediately sat up straight in my seat and looked him in the eye from an unobstructed view.  Whether or not he said that just for me is unknown and when it was time for questions, he took mine first and it wasn’t about the money.  HB 1002 was/is a NASHUA issue and I’m more disgusted at the whole senate today for that than I am with Chuck for that one vote over 2 years ago.

So back to what I said earlier about a proper amends, I will share a few thoughts.  I always knew right along that it’s not for me to decide for all of NH what counts as a proper amends.  It’s in the eye of the beholder, that being each and every voter and plenty of like minded people have indicated that they’ve moved on from 11/19/21 in their minds.  Another thought is about the institution of the apology, something that can easily turn into a separate essay.  Some people just plain never apologize for anything, ever.  We all know such people and that’s just the way they are and we accept it(meaning RECOGNIZE it rather than approving of it) and adapt accordingly.  Such people include subsets of them who try to obtain a pardon from the harmed person/people with what I call the “substitute apology.”  Much could be said about the substitute apology, also enough to make for a separate essay, but a few examples would be acting as though the transgression had never occurred, pretending to forget, or downplaying its magnitude.  When Chuck said that he’s made mistakes, I won’t be so harsh as to call it a “faux apology,” but I can count it as a substitute apology.  Let it be known that it’s unknown to me if Chuck is one of those people who never apologizes or not.  I would point all ardent fact checkers to the people closest to him, but enough said with that.  Let’s get back to the vote, particularly MY vote.

When Chuck was running for statewide federal office 2 years ago, most of my like minded brethren supported General Bolduc, but there was that stubborn holdout voting block supporting Bruce Fenton.  I won’t get into rehashing out who’s who in that cycle of candidates, their transgressions before and after the primary, and their supporters.  It’s all history and can be discussed separately, if desired, but one presently embattled Bruce Fenton supporter did write an editorial about his view of that primary race and how each voter’s vote varies in what it’s all about.  Some people vote FOR a candidate.  Some people vote AGAINST a candidate by choosing the strongest opponent.  Some people’s votes are about a specific issue.(pot, bitcoin, foreign policy, endless wars, for example)  What resonated with me about that particular editorial was the comment that said something like “my vote is all about ME.”  Suffice it to say that YOUR vote is all about YOU, your values and what’s important to you.

When I look at my impending primary ballot and consider all the viable candidates appearing on it for all offices, Lily Tang Williams is the only viable candidate that is worthy of the office being sought.  To put it another way, there are certainly decent people who run for office and I don’t know the whole slate for every community, but in the spirit of being realistic, I fancy myself as more of the “I don’t want to waste my vote” kind of voter.  No disrespect against any decent people out there that are in a primary in their district.  There are offices on my ballot that have incumbents unworthy of reelection or an incumbent that has no challenger, or both.  However, I’m discussing the primary and the Corner Office, in particular.

In the governor’s race, I will acknowledge, just to go on record, that Councilor Warmington and Joyce Craig are both totally unacceptable and beating them is the highest priority, hence the importance of advancing a VIABLE candidate to the November ballot.  That leaves Kelly Ayotte(packaged with her money, ties to the State Royal Family, and baggage) and I think others have come up with plenty of plausible reasons not to choose her, most of which I happen to agree with.  So by using the process of elimination, I will be voting for Chuck.

If you visit the Lasker Foundation’s website and click  “About Us.”  this is what you will find:

Our Mission

To improve health by accelerating support for medical research through recognition of research excellence, advocacy, and education.

What We Do

We celebrate the contributions of scientists, clinicians, and public servants who have made major advances in the understanding, diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of human disease. Our programs educate the public and promote scientific collaboration, and we advocate for a healthier world through medical research.

The Legacy of Albert and Mary Lasker

Mary Woodard Lasker (1901–1994) was a champion of medical research. She and her husband, pioneer advertising executive Albert Davis Lasker (1880–1952), established a legacy of advocacy and philanthropy in support of science and health.

Mary Lasker was one of the country’s best known and most effective activists in the cause of increased public funding for medical research. For decades, she tirelessly persuaded the American public that the national investment in medical research would yield invaluable benefits for human health. Her simple warning was, “If you think research is expensive, try disease!” Mrs. Lasker’s early efforts focused on developing public support to advance research on cancer. She founded the Citizens Committee for the Conquest of Cancer and took her cause to Congress and the American public as a leading proponent of the National Cancer Act, which was signed by President Nixon in 1971. Her ardent advocacy for greater government funding of all the medical sciences contributed to increased appropriations for the National Institutes of Health as well as the creation of several NIH institutes.

Mary Lasker’s work transformed the medical research enterprise, which earned her the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal. As a permanent monument to her efforts, in 1984 Congress named the Mary Woodard Lasker Center for Health Research and Education at the National Institutes of Health.

But what you won’t find on the website  is the fact that Albert Lasker was the main financial backer of the infamous and racist “Negro Project.”  He donated at least $20,000 (worth approximately $1/2 million today.)  The Negro Project was the brainchild of Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood.  The goal of the Negro Project was to promote birth control  among Blacks.  The project set up birth control clinics mainly in the South.  Here is a transcribed  letter from  Sanger to Dr. Clarence Gamble IN 1939 mentioning Lasker’s role in the project:

 

Casa de Adobe Catilina Foothills Tucson, Arizona
November 26, 1939
Dr. Clarence Gamble
255 Adams St.
Milton, Mass

Dear Dr. Gamble:

It is good to know that you are better again and now we must all see that your ulcers must never again be worried. Miss Rose sent me a copy of the letter that Dr. Morris wrote to Mr. Lasker. I know a copy was sent to you. I am rather distressed the way the project is about to be handled, yet I believe there is nothing much I can do about it. None of my suggestions seem to get to first base these days and so the best thing to do is not to send them on, but I feel very sad over the lack of vision with which this Negro project is to be handled. Both Mrs. Rinehart and I put in a lot of thought on this and there is no doubt that if the first thousand dollars is wisely expended, we can depend upon a generous contribution for the future. I object strenuously to putting all of our eggs in one basket; in other words, to take either North or South Carolina as the nucleus. What I wish to see is the employment of an up and doing modern minister, colored, and an up and doing colored medical man, both to come to New York and train at the Clinic and at the Federation. Until they are oozing with birth control as well as population…. They should then be sent out to cover the South and as many cities and organizations and churches and medical societies as they can get before to preach and preach and preach! That should be the job for them both for at least six months. On a second round as a checkup, they would soon find what impression was made and after one year of education agitation among the colored people, we could then support a practical campaign for supplying the mothers with contraceptives….”

Naturally, one would ask why North and South Carolina does not already give such information and supplies to their colored people, and while I have great respect for Dr. Cooper, Norton, Sibilis – I do not believe that this project should be directed or run by white medical men. The Federation should direct it with the guidance and assistance of the colored group – perhaps, particularly, and specifically formed for the purpose. I hope these few words will not cause you to worry but doubtless you have become philosophical and feel that those on the job at 501 had best run the show.

Ever my best regards.

Albert Lasker, Negro Project Funder

Sanger’s racist roots have been well established from her own writing to her association with Nazis and Klansmen, although she appeared to prefer the company of communists.

In her December 10, 1939, letter to Gamble, Sanger wrote:

“We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.”

Sanger’s contemporary apologists explain that her critics misinterpret her meaning. But her earlier words belie that contention. For example, in her book The Pivot of Civilization, she advocated for the “elimination of human weeds” and for the sterilization of “genetically inferior races.” The fact that she enlisted the likes of white supremacist Lothrop Stoddard and Dr. Ernest Rudin, the man in charge of Nazi Germany’s forced sterilization program, doesn’t help the case of her apologists.

The “Mrs. Rinehart” mentioned in the letter was none other than  Mary Lasker.  Mary was married to art dealer Paul Reinhardt prior to her marriage to Lasker.  Mary was a close friend of Sanger who in 1938 became the president of Sanger’s Birth Control Federation  of America renamed Planned Parenthood Federation.

Mary Lasker giving Lyndon Johnson the 1966 Lasker Award. Johnson, along with M.L. King, received the 1st Annual Margaret Sanger Award that same year.

I discovered this information while researching the correspondence between Sanger and   Dr. Clarence Gamble housed at the  Harvard Medical School Library.  I published the letters in the book The Racist Roots of Planned Parenthood and its Legacy of Death, which can be ordered here:  The Racist Roots of Planned Parenthood and Its Legacy of Death | campconstitution.net   or a free PDF here:  https://campconstitution.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Racist-roots-of-planned-parenthood-proof.pdf

Prior to the book’s publication, I reached out to the Lasker Foundation to see if they had a statement on the racist and white supremacist roots of its founders.  They never replied.  I have reached out a few times since with the same results.  Ironically, Gamble’s organization Pathfinder at least acknowledges its founder’s racist roots, not that it forced its leadership to end its founder’s vision-controlling the births of non-whites.  Even Planned Parenthood has felt the heat.  Due to exposure to Sanger’s racism, it discontinued its Margret Sanger Award in 2015 and even renamed one of its abortion mills.

Will the Lasker Foundation acknowledge the racist roots of its founders?  That is all up to the readers, especially those in the media.  I  recommend that readers of this article contact the Lasker Foundation and perhaps sent them a link to this article and ask when they will come clean and denounce its racist roots.  The Lasker Foundation’s contact info:

The post Why Does The Lasker Foundation Refuse to Acknowledge Its Founders’ Racist Roots? appeared first on Granite Grok.

An interesting question even as we wrap this series up with Part 3. Why DO activists do what they do – especially those whose “voluntary careers” span years, if not decades?

It’s sometimes a thankless and vilified “job,” especially if you are ruffling the feathers of those who wish to be left alone in the dusty and dim corners of Government. In fact, it was GraniteGrok’s early mantra that said, “We bring Big Flashlights” to those Dark Corners (too bad that the other ‘Grok founder decided to move towards those corners, but flipping is oft seen – it is easy to get coerced by Power, influence, and money).

And that’s what Ken and Tom, via the Government Integrity Project, have been doing, with elections and voting being a forte of theirs (oh, and investigating budgetary sleight of hand).

You can tell that they enjoy it – sometimes, immensely. However, one should never take their jocular manner to mean that they shy away from a fight that must be done. Those smiles are still there, but the meaning behind those smiles changes radically if you catch my drift.

Anyways, the final install of this series – Part 3:

!function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src="https://rumble.com/embedJS/u359331"+(arguments[1].video?'.'+arguments[1].video:'')+"/?url="+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+"&args="+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, "script", "Rumble");

Rumble("play", {"video":"v4u4tle","div":"rumble_v4u4tle"});

Perhaps I should do this more often with other activists.  If you think so, throw out some names in the Comment section!

Let’s assume this is true, and widely replicable.  What next?  Will we see this fought tooth and nail by the autism industrial complex?  Because there’s a lot of coin being made here.  The vaccines that cause autism (five years ago I’d never would have said that).  The enormous medical / counselor / training / etc. complex that’s grown out of it.  Are there meds for autism?  I’m sure there are.

 

 

 

 

I see people on LinkedIn praising the Dow for getting to 40k.  Inflation, not value creation.  But that never occurs to them.

When – WHEN – the inevitable crash comes… when – WHEN – the Jabpocalypse starts catching their friends and loved ones… when – WHEN – the coming food shortages hit… WWIII… and so on… they’ll be utterly blindsided.

And note something very dangerous.  All of a sudden it’ll hit them that we, the “unwashed”, the “foil hat wearers”, the Deplorables – we were RIGHT.  Right on the Jabs, right on the Globalists, right on mass migration, etc.  Remember, they’ve built up their personalities around the fact that they are the superior intellects.  Greater intelligence, more educated, more noble, etc.  IMHO this dissonance will drive many mad, and they’ll lash out.  Head on a swivel.

Sowell’s sage words on this:

You cannot “coexist” with someone who wants you destroyed.

 

 

 

This is not about Israel.  This is HOUSE OF ISLAM vs the HOUSE OF WAR.  Something that predates Israel’s current incarnation, something that predates the United States.

 

 

The only questions for me are WHEN DO THE SLEEPER CELLS AWAKEN? and HOW MUCH DAMAGE WILL THEY DO?  My bet is they’ll target the grid; effective, relatively vulnerable and easy to target, and the cities without power will quickly dissolve into chaos.

 

 

 

 

 

ENVY is a very corrosive force on society.  Now, in small doses, it can inspire someone to work harder.  But as a raw emotion, it is entirely destructive.

 

 

 

IMHO our Founding Fathers are watching Liberty slip away and wondering “Why did we go through the trouble”?

 

 

 

And not only do those illegals vote D when they can, those profits get laundered back to the D politicians.  So essentially, this is Democrats using tax money, laundered, to fuel their campaigns and fatten their wallets.  (Though honestly, Republicans do this too.)

 

 

My older kid will, soon I think, enter the workforce.  They already say TAXATION IS THEFT!  Can’t wait to see their reaction when they see the taxes taken out of their first paycheck. 

 

 

 

Ignorance is bliss is a saying for  a reason.

 

 

 

 

 

That’s actually another good burn.

 

 

It’s not just true that’s important.  It’s the fact that an Arab is saying it.  I hope it’s sincere and not taqiyya.

From here:

Is this why FBI agents resisted performing a RAID and instead proposed to Merrick Garland that they should simply ask Trump’s PERMISSION to search his property?

Enough With These Dangerous Calculations ⋆ Brownstone Institute

Many hundreds of years ago and following, the Western mind decided that giving such power to elites was not a good idea. The “continuing calculation” about what costs and benefits are experienced by billions of people from compulsory impositions is not something we should risk, not even with AI (which Barry says will solve the problems next time). Instead, we generally decided that a presumption of freedom is a better idea than empowering a small elite of scientists with the power to make “continuing calculations” for our supposed benefit.

It’s just been proven that the Dominion voting machines have chips inside not only MADE in China but TESTED in China.  That alone disqualifies them for use in American elections:

N adds:  Read the above about made in China, then read this (bolding and underlining added):

We chose an American military chip that is highly secure with sophisticated encryption standard, manufactured in China. Our aim was to perform advanced code breaking and to see if there were any unexpected features on the chip. We scanned the silicon chip in an affordable time and found a previously unknown backdoor inserted by the manufacturer. This backdoor has a key, which we were able to extract. If you use this key you can disable the chip or reprogram it at will, even if locked by the user with their own key. This particular chip is prevalent in many systems from weapons, nuclear power plants to public transport. In other words, this backdoor access could be turned into an advanced Stuxnet weapon to attack potentially millions of systems. The scale and range of possible attacks has huge implications for National Security and public infrastructure.

Got that?  A backdoor installed by the manufacturer that allows access even if the chip is supposedly locking the system.  More election-related:

The “trans” community has been spouting for years that to not let a child transition puts the child at greater risk of suicide.  However, a recent study shows that it’s actually FAR more likely (12 times) that they will commit suicide after “gender affirming surgery”.  We’ve been lied to.  Again.  Why can’t these people just allow kids to be KIDS?  Just because Sally is a bit of a tom-boy does NOT mean that she wants to BE a boy.  Almost all of the “gender confused” females grow up to be happy, healthy wives & mothers, and the same goes for males.  But the elites don’t want happy, healthy NORMAL families, so they push the “trans” lies:

Related:  Doctors at WPATH, which is considered the “world authority” on trans-gender medical topics were recently caught on camera admitting that many of their “trans” patients would have life-long issues with their surgery, and most likely be on meds for life.  Gee, what a great bunch of doctors, actively advocating to hack children’s genitals off, even though they KNOW it will cause problems in the long run!   Frankly, they should all be up on criminal charges and have their medical licenses pulled:

Lenin said something along the lines of … Give me just one generation of youth, and I’ll transform the whole world. While the GOP has spent decades bloviating bromides about free markets, free trade, limited government, peace through strength, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah … the Woke-Communists (f/k/a Democrats) have been doing. I’ll say it agin for you bitter-clingers … the Right talks; the Left acts.

The Left controls every major institution in America … Big Tech, Hollywood, Sports, Public Education, Media, etc., etc, etc… The Woke-Communists through their control of these institutions, especially public education and “higher” education, have indoctrinated generations of Americans. The Right, in contrast, persists in gaslighting us that EFAs (or vouchers, or school-choice or whatever name you prefer) are going to create “competition” that will force the public schools to improve. It’s such BULLSH*T.

So here is the result of the Right’s failure to engage in the culture war the Woke-Communists have been engaging in since they “lost” the Cold War. A SUPER-MAJORITY of the youngest voting-bloc … the future of America … are Woke-Communists:

But I know bitter-clingers, you don’t need an exit-plan because … “We’ve got the guns,” “I’m not giving up an inch of my great country,” “What’s the plan,” “Focus of the fiscal issues,” “Slava Ukraine,” “New Hampshire Advantage,” “Wait till they get to the real world,” blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

The post America Has Fallen … You Better Have An Exit Plan appeared first on Granite Grok.

The American industrial holding company Del Mar Energy, founded in 2002 in Texas County, has transformed over the past two decades from a small regional firm into a global leader in the energy and infrastructure sectors. Starting its journey with oil and gas extraction, the company showcases an innovative approach and a commitment to sustainable development, allowing it to successfully compete on the international stage.

Del Mar Energy’s history began at the start of the 21st century, with the company focusing on traditional methods of oil and gas extraction. However, starting in 2011, when the company transitioned to the fountain method of gas extraction, it became clear that Del Mar Energy was committed to implementing advanced technologies and improving the efficiency of its operations. This transition not only increased production volumes but also reduced the negative impact on the environment.

A significant milestone in the company’s history came in 2015 when Del Mar Energy received its first government contract for oil export to Europe and began developing deposits in that region. This contract not only opened new markets for the company but also confirmed its status as a reliable partner in the global energy market.

In 2017, Del Mar Energy changed its financial structure, moving to a private financing system with a daily payout model. This innovation allowed the company to ensure stable project financing and flexibility in managing financial resources, contributing to further growth and strengthening its market position.

One of the company’s most notable achievements came in 2019 when Del Mar Energy won its first tender worth over $100 million. This success confirmed the high level of trust in the company and its ability to execute large and complex projects.

However, the most pivotal year in Del Mar Energy’s recent history was 2021. In this year, the company achieved two major successes that demonstrate its commitment to innovation and expanding its activities beyond the energy sector. Early in the year, Del Mar Energy won a tender for the construction of a highway in France. This project not only opened new opportunities for the company in the field of infrastructure construction but also strengthened its international reputation.

Moreover, in 2021, the company treated its solar panels with a special coating that makes them impact-resistant. This innovation represents a significant step forward in the field of renewable energy, ensuring the durability and resistance of solar panels to adverse weather conditions and physical damage. This not only extends the lifespan of the panels but also reduces maintenance and replacement costs.

These achievements are evidence that Del Mar Energy is not afraid to venture beyond the conventional and is committed to sustainable development. The company continues to actively invest in new technologies and expand its horizons, enabling it to stay at the forefront of the global market.

Today, Del Mar Energy is a powerful holding that successfully combines traditional extraction methods with innovative approaches and sustainable development. As a leader in the energy sector, the company is confidently moving toward new heights, affirming its reputation as a reliable and innovative partner on the global stage. Del Mar Energy’s success story inspires other companies to reach new heights in their industries, demonstrating that innovation and sustainable development are key factors for long-term success.

Kelly Ayotte’s waning years in the US Senate did not heap glory on the Republican Party unless you mean John McCain’s version of it. That is not meant to be flattery. McCain’s ‘final days’ included spreading the debunked Clinton Campaign opposition research to the media to undermine the elected president (which the IG confirmed).

After McCain’s death, a reader wrote and asked, “Why in the hell haven’t you guys posted even ONE story about the passing of the great American hero, John McCain?!?!?!” (Punctation in original.) 

Hey, he asked.

I bear no ill will upon the dead nor his family. I pray for his soul, and my heart goes out to his friends and colleagues. People who knew him loved him and will miss him.

But whatever John McCain was in his younger life, his older self worked to destroy the very thing for which we assume he joined the military. That thing for which he is so often remembered.

His thinking it was the right thing to do does not make it so.

I appreciate his service to the country, but I do not appreciate many of the things he tried to do the country after that. I opposed them as a matter of principle, and I still do.

Kelly Ayotte ended up in McCain’s orbit, ruining what started as a promising career in the US Senate. Her first two years were fairly decent. Then it all went downhill. I feel confident she was predisposed to catching the Georgetown flu, which was inevitable (she was not our first choice). Had she stayed, she would have been more like Susan Collins than Rand Paul. And yeah, Collins was a deciding vote on at least one Trump Supreme Court Nominee, but what’s so great about having two of those RINO wildcards in the deck?

DC is filled with Rasputin’s, and spinless and unprincipled RINOs are easily swayed.

I can’t say Ayotte would be any better as governor. She’s the chosen replacement for Sununu, which is a bad sign. She has a lot of history in the Concord swamp as John Lynche’s AG and in the DC swamp on corporate boards. She knows where bodies are buried—she’s one of them, not one of us. I’m not saying she’s not better than any Democrat, but your nose gets sore from having to hold every election.

And I am amused by her campaign tagline about not massing up New Hampshire.

GraniteGrok ran a set of branded gear with an identical sentiment during the 2022 campaign year. There was no ‘Kelly Ayotte’ running for anything in that one. Given how we used the term a few years before she adopted it, I wonder if any of her supporters would be offended by that.

We had T-shirts, coffee mugs, barware, stickers, and even a lady’s tank top.

I discontinued it due to a lack of interest, but Team Ayotte has adopted something similar, and I must admit I agree. Don’t Mass Up New Hampshire. But we’ve all been fighting that fight for a long while, so what exactly does she mean by that?

It is one thing to distance yourself from a set of ideas (an opponent or, in this case, the Bay State), but it is another to promise never to set foot on the same road that got them there. And, if the tagline is genuine, don’t you have to look at where we are after the Sununu era and say we need to reverse these things because they are stepping stones to Massing up New Hampshire?

We’ve got plenty of those, and I do not think Ayotte intends to backtrack on any of them.

Maybe she should change it to “Don’t Mass Up New Hampshire More Than It Is.”

As the session winds down, Reps can rest assured they will no longer have to suffer through these reports. Yes, it is another Republican House attendance report—our regular list of who missed roll call votes and how many.

The number on the left shows votes missed yesterday. On the right, the total missed votes for the entire session from Jan 2024 to the present are shown.

Be kind to the good guys who’ve only missed a few (everyone has obligations, needs to use the bathroom, or gets a sick day). It is the seriel Republicanoffenders that should concern you. They are not representing you in the NH House.

The post Attendance! appeared first on Granite Grok.

Today, we learned that session days can be very long as we toiled over Senate bills from 9:00 a.m. until 7:10 p.m., with time, of course, for an hour-long lunch break. All in all, we slogged through 45 bills on the regular calendar and two more taken off consent. I can’t report on all of them, but I will try to share some highlights, both good and bad. Today, we surely earned our $100 for the year (wink).

We learned that we had around 28-floor amendments that we hoped to tack onto some of the Senate bills before us. These were amendments created from the language of House bills that the Senate recently killed through ITL or Interim Study. Not all 28 were voted to be added onto Senate bills, but for those that did, the House decided to send the Senate a strong message back to them that our work shouldn’t be dismissed so easily. Their favored bills will now include our favored bills. Let’s see what they will do with them. It’s an annoying little game both bodies play at this time of the year and during Committee of Conference season. Seeing as they are also still holding some of our bills hostage, I am sure those House bills will come back to us with many unwelcome surprises.

We learned that we special ordered our first bill to be done after lunch break, only to come back from lunch to Table it 325Y-32N. That was SB558, a bill that would require insurance companies to cover fertility treatments. The Commerce Committee recommended Interim Study because there was some questions about whether insurance companies cover those procedures or not, so either way, the bill ended up yielding no fruit… so to speak.

We learned that CACR22 failed to garner 3/5th of votes needed to pass, as the votes were 195Y-165N on a Roll Called vote. If this had passed, then a question would have been posed on November’s ballot as to whether or not we should establish the New Hampshire presidential primary (FITN) as the first such electoral contest in the nation in our State Constitution. We needed 216 yes votes for this CACR to pass. Apparently 21 House members did not trust the people enough to make that decision. I appreciated comments made by Deputy Speaker, Steve Smith (R-Charlestown), about presidential candidates, “It’s not cute when candidates come here and serve our coffee and cook our eggs. It is a reminder to the powerful people who want to be a leader of the free world that their first job, their only job, is to be a public servant.” He was spot on.

We learned that after all the tons of emails House members received about SB440, which made our eyes blurry, we tabled the bill 224Y-137N. This expanded the scope of what procedures optometrists could perform that they are not currently permitted to do. There were stipulations in the bill regarding required education, training, supervision and certification, but there was lots of push back by many organizations, ophthalmologists, and eye surgeons, warning legislators of horrible consequences that could happen to people if these procedures are not done properly. People who had gone blind from botched laser surgeries came to testify against the bill, as this type of optometry expansion has been allowed in other states. The bill was intended to help increase access to eyecare and procedures because there is a lack of ophthalmologists in our state, especially in rural areas. The thought was to allow optometrists to take on some of the procedures and make them more available for patients. There was no data to suggest that with optometrists performing some laser surgery treatments there would be higher rates of complications or malpractice suits. We also didn’t really know if this move would truly increase access to care and make it less expensive. In the end, the House saw fit to Table the bill.

We learned that SB417 passed 361Y-3N. This bill was a reaction to some horrific things that happened to kids that were placed out of state after being removed from their abusive or troubled homes. SB417 revises criteria for out-of-home placement of children under the child protection act and other juvenile statutes and establishes an order of preference based on placement with the child’s siblings, when possible, and proximity to the child’s community of origin. The committee amendment to the bill was a tighter Roll Called vote of 186Y-178N with all but 2 Democrats against the amendment (because remember… it’s for the kids). The amendment did many things to streamline the process of placement and to help facilitate getting children into homes where their unique needs can be met. For one thing it updated the standard for evidence from “a preponderance of the evidence” to “clear and convincing evidence.” Increasing the standard slightly to the clear and convincing evidence standard will help reduce the number of spurious cases heard by the court and allow the Judicial Branch to focus on the cases where there are real concerns. The amendment also addressed parental ownership of firearms and made it clear that mere ownership does not make a home “unsafe” and that this one factor should not be weighed against the parent. This was a good bill from the Senate… and the House made it even better with its amendment.

We learned that SB476 was the bill that approved a capital appropriation to the Department of Corrections (DOC) in the amount of $40 million for architectural, engineering, programming, design and construction documents for a replacement state men’s prison. This is a must have bill for the Senate. Rep. Terry Roy, (R-Deerfield) offered as a floor amendment the language to HB1711 to be added onto the Senate bill. HB1711 is considered by some, including many gun groups, to be a “Red Flag Law” bill and was recently killed in the Senate with a Tabling motion. It adds mental health records to gun background checks, and was a response to the shooting of Chief Bradley Haas at the NH Hospital. The floor amendment passed 202Y-165N, and the amended Senate bill passed 212Y-155N. Personally, I am not a fan of a $40 million expenditure in an “off budget year”, especially since we in the House keep getting chastised by the “folks on the other side of the wall” regarding bringing “money bills” to the Senate in an “off budget year” (hence their reason for killing some of our House bills…but I guess their money bills are betterer)… and I certainly didn’t support the floor amendment. It will be really interesting to see what the Senate does with this.

We learned that there was “House Drama” after the passage of SB476. Loud words were had between Rep. Terry Roy (R-Deerfield) and Rep. Cyril Aures (R-Chichester) about the HB1711 gun bill language. Afterwards, there were Motions made to Reprimand both House members for their unruly conduct, but the House decided to Table both Motions to Reprimand and get on with the days business. It was a good move, because we still had tons of work ahead of us, and the Reprimand really is nothing more than a “finger-wagging, don’t do that again boys” gesture. The House had already been in recess for a half hour to sort through the aftermath of the “kerfuffle” and decide how to deal with it all and we didn’t really need to waste more time on that. People need to chill… it’s just legislation the Senate will likely kill again anyway.

We learned that SB591, modifying definitions, claims procedures, and funding relating to the youth development center settlement fund and claims administration, passed on a voice vote. That was after an amendment was tacked onto it by Rep. Dan McGuire (R-Epsom). This bill makes various changes to settlement terms, and adds $60 million to the settlement fund for the YDC lawsuits.and will cover our expenses until July 1, 2025. There’s a $75 million cap on the state’s annual settlement costs, and a 5% interest rate on settlements that are paid over time, and that is going to be a level of expense to continue for many years. The amendment removes the ability of those funds to be borrowed and instead will have to be budgeted with the state’s other operating expenses. While it is appropriate to borrow when necessary for capital projects such as roads, prisons or other infrastructure that will be used for many decades, it is not appropriate to borrow to pay current expenses such as this settlement fund. The amendment passed 187Y-173N. Can you imagine that 173 House members would borrow money to pay structured settlements? That would just be a policy of insanity…taking out debt to pay more debt.

We also learned that SB431 relative to Wake Surfing was passed with an amendment 214Y-148N. This bill and its amendment restricts the activity of wake surfing on lakes and ponds that are less than 50 acres in size, codifies provision of existing wake surfing education by the Department of Safety, and mandates a 300-foot distance from shorelines and docks, versus the present distance in statute, which is 150 feet. The hope is that this will enable some progress with the mitigation of the cumulative environmental and recreational challenges. The motorsports industry has a “Wake Responsibly” campaign, to educate about the erosion of shoreline, damage of docks and boats, and interference with other lake recreational activities. For some wake boaters, passing this bill will surely make some waves.

We learned that SB358 was killed 176Y-174N on a Roll Called vote. It should have been passed. With this bill, New Hampshire would not honor out of state driver’s licenses issued exclusively to people unable to prove lawful presence in the United States. We have no problem with legal immigrants, but we know some of our neighboring states are issuing drivers licenses to illegal immigrants. That’s not cool. We heard arguments that allowing people who are unlawfully in our country to obtain driver’s licenses improves the safety of our roadways, but there’s no real evidence to support this. We also know that licenses (a government ID) given to unvetted individuals poses a much greater risk to public safety. Those licenses also confer certain privileges. Why would we give privileges to law breakers? The rule of law is important and should not be discarded. Allowing and condoning illegal immigration by honoring licenses specifically issued to unlawfully present individuals is not in the best interest of this state and is an affront to the millions of immigrants who have legally come to this country. Changing the status quo of state reciprocity on driver’s licenses is not to be taken lightly, but we have a duty to protect the rule of law and safeguard the citizens of our state from the bad policy decisions made by some of our neighboring states.

Finally we learned that SB501 was passed on a roll called vote of 181Y-169N, and that should have been killed. This bill will grant licenses to non-citizens residing in New Hampshire. The bill changes the term “Non Resident Alien” to “Non-Citizen.” Second, it mentions the term “granted conditional residence” but does not describe what it means. Third and most importantly, the bill states that “once licensed, the individual shall be subject to the same provisions of the law as all other licenses.” This is a back door to allowing non-citizens to vote. The minority feels that this bill will have an adverse effect to election integrity. One can only hope that the Governor will veto this horrible bill. This just underscores the need to stop using licenses as ID to vote in our state. We really need to find another way to validate voters.  I am amazed this bill came to us from the Senate!

Next week we’ll have Concurrence Week – The House will vote on all the bills coming back to us from the Senate with their marvelous changes. We can hardly wait to see all the presents they will send back to us in our House bills. I’m sure there will be some surprises and disappointments… like when you get socks or coal for Christmas.

The post So Kids, What Did We Learn From This Week’s House Session (5/23/24)? appeared first on Granite Grok.

It wasn’t as if Harrison Butker addressed the students of Yale, Harvard, or some other nefarious communist institution! Rather, Butker spoke to the graduating class at the Christian-oriented Benedictine College, located deep within the heart of America’s “fly-over country!” So, why all this ruckus?

The reason is obvious, yet many shy away from listening. For the longest time, our institutions of higher learning have been overrun with Marxist doctrinaires. Unfortunately, this fact alone qualifies their detrimental status.

Still, every year, hardworking parents send their children off toward these higher learning centers, thinking the best but eventually suspecting and then experiencing the worst. However, as the new freshman class arrives, they fill the ranks left open as the senior class graduates, dispersing to infest our business/corporate sectors and, in general, our country’s well-being.

This rotation has been ongoing throughout my adult life, and yet the routine apparently called for some sprucing up; so along came our public schools with studies that implanted the hammer and sickle doctrines. Now, future freshmen have a running start at being full-fledged and pledged comrades.

All this sounds like a writer with a gifted imagination, but stop and compare what was to what is now being forced fed. Examples are endless, too numerous to detail, yet one recent event, cited above, seemed to rock this mental thievery process, if the reaction it caused in our so-called journalistic world is any indicator. And to think that this caliber of nastiness is being directed at what is still America’s shining traditions and foundational supports.

Harrison Butker’s commencement speech respectfully highlighted motherhood, family, and Christianity. This is in addition to a general acknowledgment of the degrees earned and his best wishes for all the graduates’ future endeavors. Nevertheless, the three topics noted above claimed the media’s ire, along with official lambasting from NFL officials who now enforce this restrictive “woke” stranglehold.

Without delving into the individual quotes from Mr. Butker’s messaging, it needs to be repeated that his commencement invite came from a Christian-based university and that the section of his speech that generated all this ridicule was his revelation of personal experiences and how he and his wife enjoy a rich and rewarding life—one revolving around her being his wife, mother to their children, and homemaker. I might add that this particular section of his speech received an eighteen-second applause!

After listening to all the verbalization and printed rebuke against Mr. Butker, I am once again reminded of journalism’s apparent adoption of Sol Alinsky’s playbook for radicals. To quote one of his “rules,” “pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”

Within its eight-plus page speech, his advice encompassed a broad array of recommendations for the newly minted graduates to ponder upon. Given his self-professed adherence to God, his comments were richly interspersed with faith and his own personal rewards derived from his chosen lifestyle.

This topic, while also on the hatchet list, was too broad-based, so the “target” “picked” was the more personal one-on-one of mother and homemaker, which directly challenges what has been the routine lecture that condemns being held back by male superiority versus a woman’s “be all you can be” career potential. In other words, it has more of a direct, nerve-hitting effect that can easily be expounded upon, given the infamous chauvinist illusion of “keeping her barefoot and pregnant and in the kitchen!”

The purpose of ridiculing his wife’s role is meant to dampen Mr. Butker’s entire spiel since he basically champions traditions that are counter to this communist/globalist theorem. To ridicule a part is to condemn its entirety!

The media’s tactic is actually a knee slap protection of it new aged priorities. No longer can concerns be of an individual matter since this is the age of inclusion and equality. Since his words speak of the proven traditions and personal fulfillment from an inner belief, Mr. Butker’s ordeal is just beginning. There is even talk of his possible exile from the NFL!

Not only are the forces of fairness and inclusion denouncing his one-time oratory, but now they intend to penalize him to the point he will no doubt run their gauntlet until he is financially ruined and socially ostracized! All that is now lacking is an open courtroom and an agreeable “judge” so that Mr. Butker’s act can never become a replay!

The post Night Cap: Proper and Overdue appeared first on Granite Grok.

Cloned meat, one of several names I’ve bandied about for Lab-grown meat (mystery meat is another), is not better for the environment, it is not better for people, and it is not the future of beef in America if actual Americans have anything to say.

Or is it?

I’ve had my share of encounters with people at the grocery store who buy fake meat. I see them looking at the packages for the right one, which must be a holdover from their real meat days. They are all the same. There’s no difference—identical weight, shape, texture, everything. Other than the expiration date, I can’t imagine what might be of so much interest.

KFC launched fake chicken (vegan) nuggets two years ago and is still selling them. Of course, these are plant-based fabrications – laboratory concoctions, nonetheless, but not synthesized from base matter into something meant to look and taste like the real thing. But the impossible stuff, like the lab-grown, isn’t better for the planet. Lab-grown meat is, in fact, several orders of magnitude worse than beef on the hoof.

In the study, the scientists estimated the energy required for stages of lab-grown meat production, from the ingredients making up the growth medium and the energy required to power laboratories, and compared this with beef.

They largely focused on the quantity of growth medium components, including glucose, amino acids, vitamins, growth factors, salts, and minerals.

They found the “global warming” potential of lab-grown meat ranged from 246 to 1,508 kg of CO2 equivalent per kilogram of lab-grown meat.

The figure is four to 25 times greater than the claimed average “global warming” potential of retail beef.

But that’s not why Alabama has joined Florida in prohibiting the manufacture or sale of lab-grown meat.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF ALABAMA:
Section 1. (a) For the purposes of this section, the term “cultivated food product” means any food product produced from cultured animal cells.
(b)(1) It shall be unlawful for any person to manufacture, sell, hold or offer for sale. or distribute anv cultivated food product in this state.

SB23 was signed into law two weeks ago and takes effect October 1st of this year.

The Alabama bill, proposed by Republican state Sen. Jack Williams, vice chair of the Senate Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry Committee, and signed into law by Gov. Kay Ivey on May 7, prohibits the manufacture, sale, or distribution of food products made from cultured animal cells. State Rep. Denny Crawford also had a hand in the legislation.

Nutritionists not on-the-take have expressed concerns about “plant-based” and lab-grown meat.

[Registered dietitian Diana] Rodgers told the Post that she is concerned about a lack of publicly-available nutritional information regarding lab-grown meat. When asked whether lab-grown meat was healthy or not, Rodgers said, “We just don’t know.”

“I’d rather eat my shoe than lab-grown meat,” Rodgers told the Post. “McDonald’s is still better because the meat is a better option for vitamins,” she added later.

The plant-based variety makes claims about nutrition that are unlikely, if not themselves, fraudulent.

‘Among these products, we saw a wide variation in nutritional content and how sustainable they can be from a health perspective. In general, the estimated absorption of iron and zinc from the products was extremely low. This is because these meat substitutes contained high levels of phytates, antinutrients that inhibit the absorption of minerals in the body,’ says Cecilia Mayer Labba, the study’s lead author

To be clear, you can chew on plant-based or lab-created meat. I’m not telling you what to eat. But these are not better for the planet (consider the entire components-to-table carbon footprint of facilities, equipment, growing, prepping, synthesizing, and producing the product).

Fertilizer runoff for the plant-based product. And hey, isn’t farming bad for the planet?

But hey, the same government agency that lied about the COVID vaccines being safe and effective, completely abdicating its obligation to ensure informed consent about the risks, is responsible for ensuring fake and lab-grown meat provides accurate nutritional and ingredient details about what’s in it and the rest.

What could go wrong?

It is a mathematical fact that gasoline in the U.S. will eventually rise to $100 for a gallon (perhaps $130 for those interested in higher octane). This is not fear-mongering but basic arithmetic and economics.  Here’s why.

The price of goods and labor is directly linked to money supply and market factors.  This is not merely “supply and demand” economics but an issue of overheating (or overleveraging) an economy by printing and/or borrowing too much money.  When a government prints more money than the underlying economy is generating in real wealth, this is essentially a form of borrowing, often called “debt monetization.”

The United States has been doing this for decades, staving off the ordinary fluctuations in the economy punctuated by innovations and growth alternating with recessions – borrowing money in times of turmoil softens the blow, but also forestalls the consequences.

This is seen not just in the reckless Biden-Harris spending extravaganza masked by upside-down monikers such as “Build Back Better” or the “Inflation Reduction Act,” but across party lines and even centuries.

Notably, the largely forgotten S & L Crisis of the 1980s under the Reagan administration was never paid off: the proverbial can was simply kicked down the economic road (subject to compound interest, of course).  The S & L debacle is estimated to have cost U.S. taxpayers some $132 billion, chump change by today’s debt measures. But that “crisis” caused the collapse of more than 1,000 U.S. banks and the insolvency of the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation.

That $132 billion in 1980s dollars has not yet been paid off – it was simply rolled into the national deficit, followed by decades of mostly deficit spending by both parties.  The 2007-2008 financial crisis is estimated to have cost taxpayers some $498 billion, though President Obama famously lied to taxpayers in 2012, claiming the government recouped “every dime” used to rescue the banks he bailed out.  Whatever the actual sum, it remains subsumed in the accumulated national federal deficit of about $35 trillion.

Imagine running a household on infinite credit card debt, and you understand the federal government’s profligacy.  But it is much worse than that.  When unfunded entitlement obligations such as Medicaid and Social Security are counted, the current total estimated debt of the U.S. government exceeds $100 trillion, and the federal debt-to-GDP ratio is above 122%.  Currency and credit derivatives approximated $90 trillion in 2000, when U.S. Treasury dollars were $3,546,531,560, according to usdebtclock.org; they now exceed $1,576,612,150,000 – 444 times as much printed money in 25 years, far outstripping real GDP growth.

A 2024 Ford F-150 now sells for $36,770 ($73,735 for the Platinum model).  Has the truck’s “value” increased, or has the relative value of the dollar simply deteriorated?  The answer is a tad of both – these 2024 trucks have more gadgets and extras (the Platinum is a hybrid) than a 1986 Ford F-150, which retailed for $8,373 ($19,587.47 in today’s dollars).  But that difference between $8,373 and $19,587 is all inflation, which is accelerating dangerously despite Biden administration deceptions.

The moral hazard is that rewarding one’s pet projects and crony donors by printing money and disbursing it favorably is hard to trace.  The impact of this practice always falls on the poorest wage earners and fixed-income recipients in the form of higher prices and shrunken real incomes, but it is virtually impossible to link back to root causes, thus the temptation to do so because there is no accountability.

In his monetary policy study titled “Money Mischief,” economist Milton Friedman traces this conundrum, emphasizing that overprinting money is always what causes inflation:

According to Milton Friedman (1963)—and also the Deutsche Bundesbank (1999)—inflation is “always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon” and thus the responsibility of central banks. This conclusion builds on the so-called quantity equation (M * V = P * Y), which establishes a relationship between the quantity of money controlled by central banks (M), the price level (P), the quantity of all goods and services produced (Y) and the velocity of money in circulation (V). If the velocity of money in circulation is constant, then the price level rises if the money supply grows faster than the quantity of all goods and services produced.

Friedman also warned that all fiat currencies eventually collapse because they are not backed by actual physical assets.  This means that just like that F-150, the price of a gallon of gas will eventually climb to $100/gallon and that wages will never keep pace – without regard to oil supply shortages or interruptions in distribution (such as could be inflicted by an Iranian attack on numerous oil-shipping choke points).

A glimpse of what is inevitably coming to American shores is found in the example of Zimbabwe, which also shows that math, and money-printing, are not racist but color blind – they don’t care what skin color, social justice cause, or Utopian fantasy is employed to violate their fundamental logic.  Robert Mugabe tried to harness the Zimbabwean economy for social spending (“social justice”), with devastating effects on that nation’s currency and people.  Inflation rates reached nearly 250,000,000 % in 2008, though they have subsided to “merely” 57.5 % currently.  A $10 trillion Zimbabwean note can be purchased for about $10 U.S.

The U.S. dollar is not immune to such abuses, and America is on the precipice of a monetary disaster (to be “rescued” by an all-controlling digital currency).  As one commentator observed in October 2022 of Biden-seeded inflation:

….the M2 money supply is up 41.6% over the past three years.  So while not all inflations are caused by rapid money growth, this one is.  Indeed velocity has actually slowed during this period, which means that more than 100% of the inflation comes from monetary policy as defined by Friedman.  Thus, at least this time around: It’s the money supply, stupid.

The United States Congress created a bipartisan commission to tackle rising debt, but in an election year there is bipartisan hesitancy to take this mighty monetary bull by its inflationary horns:

More than six months later, the proposal appears all but dead, extinguished by vocal opposition from both the right and the left.

Facing the reality that any fiscal commission would almost certainly suggest that Americans pay more or get less from their government, lawmakers have time and again done what they do so well: punt the problem to the next Congress. And they seem poised to do so again.

This means that even without interruptions of foreign oil supplies or Biden policies shrinking U.S. energy production and oil drilling, reckless U.S. monetary policy promises to drive the price at the pump for gasoline far above a paltry $100/gallon.  In the future, American fathers and mothers will not nostalgically say, “I remember when gas was 17 cents a gallon.”  They will tell their children, “I remember when gasoline was only $100 a gallon.”

There are many ways to look at Biden’s comments when he goes off teleprompter. First, it shows his mental acuity is gone, which most logical observers have been saying for a few years. Two, it shows his little respect for anyone across the aisle, and this is from the man who promised to be the great unifier. It makes us salivate at the thought of this feeble old man debating Trump.

At one of his campaign stops over the weekend, Biden was working hard to scare his listeners, and they were just a few, by telling them what kind of Judge Trump would appoint to the Supreme Court if he got a chance. He qualified his thought, saying, “Does he even know how to nominate a judge with a brain?” Are you kidding me? Can this man be any less respectful? I don’t think so. How do the three Supreme Court justices he appointed – Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett feel about the current President, who cannot string two sentences together, questioning their intelligence intelligence? That is rich, very rich!

Sometimes, Biden doesn’t even have to speak to show his ignorance. We all remember the flag-draped remains of the thirteen service people returning to America at Dover Air Force Base. Pictures don’t lie, but Biden and his surrogates do. Biden has denied it, and Jenn Psaki, Biden’s Press Secretary, wrote in her recent book that Biden did not glance at his watch during the dignified transfer.

Just a week ago, Biden showed his lack of respect for the former President, “That other guy, that loser. I think he’s having trouble,” Biden said, without referring to Trump by name. The insult was met with laughter in the ballroom for an event honoring Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. “That other guy, that loser. I think he’s having trouble,” Biden said, without referring to Trump by name. The insult was met with laughter in the ballroom for an event honoring Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. To be fair, Trump shows no respect for the current President.

Speaking to the NAACP this weekend in Detroit, he referenced his tenure as Vice President during the Pandemic when Barack Obama sent him to Detroit to help fix it. What is he talking about? He was VP from 2009 to 2017, and the Pandemic did not hit until 2020! Somebody, please fact-check this old man.

In April, President Biden made the sign of the cross, a gesture Catholics often make before and after prayer, while listening to pro-abortion comments by a fellow Democrat in Florida. “Biden’s decision to make the sign of the cross in support of abortion extremism is a despicable charade that attempts to co-opt a sacred practice in support of his new abortion religion,” added CatholicVote President Brian Burch. “His gesture openly mocks the Christian belief in the sanctity of life.”

“There is no divine support for destroying the lives of innocent children, and he should know better,” Burch added. “Biden’s gesture suggests he is either terribly naive, or senile, or callously indifferent to the foundational beliefs of millions of Christians in America.”

The last sentence in Burch’s statement sums up Joe Biden perfectly. “He is either terribly naive, or senile, or callously indifferent to the foundational beliefs of millions of Christians in America.” It is not just Christians but anyone on the Right side of the aisle. For a man who was to unify, he widened the aisle to a four-lane highway with Do Not Cross signs at the entire length. No President, not even Jimmy Carter, has done as much in one term to bring down Americans and America.

To recap from Part 1: “It needs to be done by someone so why NOT us?”. Yeah, that’s a great summarization of this 3-Part interview with Ken Eyring and Tom Murray

GIP – the Government Integrity Project – was founded by Ken and Tom a number of years ago. Its  mission, with their relentless (and sometimes, ruthless – heh!) is in being vigilant in finding out where Government is not playing with a straight deck with what it is supposed to do – cut . And like with Windham, NH, finding out locals here in NH where such tomfoolery (and faux foppery in trying to do the “cover up waltz” to throw people off their scents). “Good ole’ boys” networks, self-centered politicians, and unelected, unaccountable, and unassailable bureaucrats should be looking over their shoulders.

The strains from the TV show should be bouncing in your head right about now “Bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do?”. Yup, GIP knows what to do.

And, both have their own individual stories to tell – and they did!

The question of the day with no wrong answer is which man is the biggest sleazebag- Michael Avenatti or Michael Cohen. Both are lawyers, con artists, liars, and now thieves. Grammarly just informed me that sleazebag may be inappropriate. Absolutely not; it is not vile enough for these two individuals.

The connection between these two men is the ridiculous felony trial against Donald Trump by the State of New York. Michael Avanati stole from the porn star witness who was used to embarrass Trump, and he is now doing time. Cohen, who was the star witness against Donald Trump, has already done time for perjury. He was a convicted liar and, after his confession today that he stole $60,000 from Trump in lieu of a bonus he was denied, is now a thief. Alvin Bragg has to charge Cohen to save face in this farce of a trial.

The case against Trump is in its fifth week, with closing arguments scheduled to begin next Tuesday, and there has still not been a crime charged against Biden. How can you have a trial when no law is identified or violated or a victim?

Most of the so-called legal experts on CNN and MSNBC were flabbergasted after Cohen’s confession, except for Lawrence O’Donnell of MSNBC, who did his dramatic best to justify the theft by Cohen as compensation for the unpaid bonus. What a fool. This guy should be writing soap operas because he lacks credibility as a political analyst. No, Lawrence, there is no justification. Cohen did not earn his bonus, and to take the money as compensation is theft, plain and simple.

This case is Lawfare in 2024. Forty years ago, the Justice Department at the state and federal level had accountability. If there was a crime, a grand jury was called, charges were filed, and a court case proceeded. Today, politicians use the Justice Department to attack opponents, manufacture a charge, and tie the person up in the system for months. If you bankrupt the individual, so much the better. If, forty years ago, an aspiring DA ran on the promise of destroying a political individual, they were chastised and probably pulled from the election. Today, that same DA candidate is cheered and elected. The system has gone rank and stinks, but it is the public to blame, for it is votes that put these people into office. Alvin Braggs, Leticia James, and Fanni Willis are the poster children of what is wrong. Sadly, these three are Black, and rather than take advantage of the opportunity they have been given to do something positive, they pull the race and WOKE card to feed an agenda. It is a sick system and a sad statement about where our society is in 2024.

We can and must do better. We must insist on a higher caliber individual to run for office and never cast a vote for anyone who does not measure up. If not, these agenda-driven individuals will play the system, and we will continue to write about the problem.

At the beginning of the legislative session, Senator Dan Innis proposed legislation that would allow school districts to contract with a health care provider, health system, or community partner to establish a school based health center for the purpose of providing services to students beyond the scope of school nursing services.  The public made sure this dangerous Bill never made it out of the New Hampshire Senate.

Unfortunately some schools in New Hampshire have gone rogue, and are now working with school based health clinics like Amoskeag in Manchester. My hope is that a parent and attorney will challenge this in court since there has been no legislative approval for these kinds of clinics in our schools.

What have we found out about some of these clinics around the country? We know a high school girl in Maine was prescribed an antidepressant without her parents’ knowledge or consent.  There are plenty of examples where parents have been kept in the dark when their child visits the school-based health clinic.

The latest example comes from Seattle, where a public school-based health clinic will be offering children cross-sex hormones as part of their school day.

What does Amoskeag offer children who visit its school-based health clinic in Manchester? You can find more about that here.

First, parents need to ensure that each visit to a school counselor, behaviorist, doctor, or nurse is accompanied by a parent. In addition, parents should consent to all of this. That does not mean blanket consent but consent for each visit and service.

Some parents concerned about privacy rights or who do not trust that they will be respected in their parental role have already started notifying the school district that they are not to provide these services to their children.

If parents do encounter problems associated with these school based health clinics, they can contact me, and I will help them look into the situation. Some of the employees working in these clinics have made it clear that parents will be cut out of this process. They will not notify them or ask them for consent. Since it’s federally funded, they don’t believe parents have a right to know or consent to this treatment. That’s something every parent needs to consider if their district heads in this direction.

We’re always looking for anything that will inform our readers and trigger the fragile snowflakes, and this clip might be just what the under-trained, ill-informed public school health clinic counselor ordered.

It might be a bit more triggering than informing, as our readership is well-versed on the subject and aware of the participants. Dr. David Martin was relatively unknown to a majority of Americans until the Plandemic movie, after which he became a go-to resource and household name among those daring to ask the wrong questions about the Wuhan Flu and the political response to it.

We’ve shared some of David’s observations in the past (here, if interested), so his recent appearance on Russell Brand’s podcast (naturally) caught my attention. It’s a great conversation you can watch in its entirely here, but I wanted to clip a bit and share it to get the thoughts of this community.

Russel and Dave had been talking about governments and wars running cover for what was essentially a legalized drug cartel beginning with opium and how the latest enrichment of Big Pharma isn’t much different from the British Empire’s arrangement with the East India Company and the export of opium for fun and profit. Martin essentially says if you read their own words this was all deliberate with specific goals.

Like I said, it’s a great conversation. Here’s the clip.

So, I was mentioned in a recent post titled ROSS BERRY by someone named Anonymous. So I should respond, and I do as follows: KUDOS TO ROSS BERRY! To hell with the NH Democrats, who should be getting called Woke-Communists because that is what they are.

Screw people who support grooming children, chemically castrating children, aborting seven-eight-nine-month-old unborn babies, who believe that they can lock other people in their homes in the name of “public health” and force them to inject experimental drugs; etc., etc., etc… F-them.

So kudos to Ross Berry for apparently sticking it to the Woke-Communists.

And f**k any “Republicans” who have a problem with Ross Berry apparently sticking it to the Woke-Communists. Such “Republicans” are, AT BEST, useless, have no idea what they are dealing with, and, as a practical matter, are delusional if they actually believe that it is possible to “bipartisan” and “find common ground” with Woke-Communists.

And kudos to Ross Berry for moving his family out of Manchester. The city is a total SH*THOLE, and any parent(s) who leaves their child(ren) to be groomed and indoctrinated by the  Woke-Communist-bureaucrats running the Manchester public schools, if they can get them the hell out of that sh*thole of a city, is committing child abuse. Family ALWAYS comes before politics.

Of course, many of the policies pushed by Ross Berry have contributed to turning Manchester into the sh*ttiest of sh*tholes. But that’s a discussion for elsewhere.
