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.

As you folks already know or remember, last October, we had our first Groktoberfest for Conservatarian (Conservative & Libertarian) activists to do what political folks do – yak, eat, shoot some guns (‘natch – held at the Londonderry Fish and Game club), and listen to a few people tell us their stories…

…and yak, yak, and yak some more. Even though some view politics as rather boring and irrelevant, activists hold quite the opposite view. To the point that the “main events” fade into the background as the yakking just continues.

Again, at the event, I announced my semi-retirement (surprising to me – I didn’t even know I was going to do it!) from the ‘Grok I had founded 18 years ago due to family issues that HAD to take priority. And in doing so, I turned over everything over to Steve knowing that it would be in the best of hands – I was not disappointed.

Sidenote: And that is the reason why I am taking this opportunity to ask you to donate to GraniteGrok. We are all volunteers, but with Steve’s full-time job gone away, this is the opportunity to keep him and all the time he puts in with his wit, wisdom, and dry humor full-time in a paying position. We were lucky with his old job – nooks and crannies of time always showed up, and he spent it spinning up post after post. However, if he has to look for another full-time job, there’s no guarantee that he’d have the same amount of time for you all to enjoy.

Thus, my keyboard went silent until deciding that things had calmed down enough so that I could resume this hobby obsession (much to the dismay of some, I bet).

So, seven months later, Life is allowing me the time to process some older videos and start putting them up on Rumble (Steve, during my absence, decided on Rumble instead of YouTube—I’m good with that even though I have to learn a whole new system).

Given that Groktoberfest was about GraniteGrok and the 18 years that we’ve been serving NH, the micro-interview question was:

“What was the reason all these folks returned, time after time after time, to read our opinions, hear about our political activism, and ride along with investigations we had done over the years?”.

Short and to the point:
