Cardello: Clearing Up The Confusion On Pride Month

Granite Grok - 1 hour 28 min ago
For many years, I was under the misconception that June, not just a day, but an entire month, was dedicated to the celebration of homosexuality. My first exposure to the charade was when I found myself in the midst of a Boston Gay Pride Parade many decades ago. It was a freak show of men ... Read more

MacDonald: A Few Unwanted But Necessary Changes

Granite Grok - 3 hours 28 min ago
With a few weeks left, it does not appear as if we can even get close to our fundraising target. I wanted to raise $20,000 and we are not even close. I attribute this to my inability to fundraise or to ask people who can probably afford it to write checks, but I am grateful ... Read more

Hey Regina, Taxation Is Still Theft

Granite Grok - 5 hours 28 min ago
It’s time to revisit SB255, Kevin Avard’s telecommunications surcharge. He sponsored it at the behest of Senator Twitley’s beloved far-left New Futures. It’s not dead.  It had been in suspended animation since Regina tabled it on March 27, but it came out of hibernation on Monday afternoon in the Budget Committee of Conference, just a ... Read more

MacDonald: Gov. Nuisance, The National Guard, and Black History

Granite Grok - 8 hours 28 min ago
In 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower federalized the Arkansas National Guard to aid in the protection of nine black children attending a previously all white High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. Bill Clinton’s hometown became a flashpoint for desegregation in the South. The governor had called up the Arkansas National Guard to stop the desegregation. ... Read more

Karstens: The Apex Predator of Captured Science

Granite Grok - 17 hours 28 min ago
The media’s the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that’s power. Because they controlled the minds of the masses. – Malcolm X If the captured pharmaceutical-media complex recoiled in panic when Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. entered the political arena, it ... Read more

Loftus: GOP Senators Quickly Expose Their Glaring Disconnect With MAGA

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-06-16 22:00 +0000
In the wake of Israel’s airstrikes on Iran, a spate of Republican senators quickly exposed their disconnect with the anti-war MAGA base. Secretary of State Marco Rubio attempted Thursday to set a tone of restraint in the administration’s response to the airstrikes, which targeted Iranian nuclear sites and left multiple top-ranking military commanders dead, emphasizing that the ...

MacDonald: State Retirement Fund Shenanigans?

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-06-16 20:00 +0000
The State budget and Trailer bill are a biennial fascination that are increasingly used to accomplish tasks that could not be done through the legislative process alone. “Putting it in the budget” is an ordinary course of action. Didn’t pass? Stuff it in the budget. I’m not a fan, but if you’re willing to overlook ... Read more

Your State House 6-13-2025

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-06-16 18:00 +0000
This week, the  House met to consider action on all bills that had different House and Senate versions. Most committees of conference – including those on the budget and two bills from my committee – were set up in advance, since that action doesn’t need the entire House to approve.  On other bills, committee chairmen ...

Klar: MAGA Agenda Imperiled Over Pesticides and Big Ag

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-06-16 14:00 +0000
Efforts to secure statutory immunity from liability for personal injuries caused by pesticides have converged with massive increases in federal subsidies for chemical-dependent GMO monoculture crops, proposed in the House Reconciliation Bill (AKA the “Big, Beautiful Bill”), to fuel a bitter conservative battle over the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda. Both initiatives pit industrial ... Read more

MacDonald: Dems Warned Us About Trump and Social Security

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-06-16 12:00 +0000
Does the Democrat Party run on nothing but fear? I’m not convinced it can. Fear of everything except government, which, ironically, is the one thing we ought to fear. So, when Donald Trump became president again, like the first time, the left went about filling the culture and airwaves with fear. Fear that Trump will ... Read more

Cardello: We Are More Than A Divided Country

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-06-16 10:00 +0000
For someone like me who loves this country and has a sense of patriotism nurtured from birth, this article is challenging to write and even more difficult to fathom. We have become a nation not just divided by two vastly different ideologies with a common goal, but we are a people divided by what is ... Read more

A Maine family’s then-five-year-old son was vaccinated in November 2021 with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine at a public school without his parents’ consent. After the family filed suit, the Maine Supreme Judicial Court ruled that their state claims for damages were pre-empted by the federal Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act, holding that their ...

Rhodes: The World Health Organization Withdrawal Scam

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-06-15 22:00 +0000
A recent executive order issued under the banner of “withdrawing the United States from the World Health Organization” has generated considerable attention. At first glance, the order appears to fulfill a long-standing demand from Americans concerned about foreign influence in public health governance. However, a closer examination of the text reveals that it falls short ... Read more

Financial privacy is a right under the Constitution, as is free speech.   Under the guise of “credit review,” Stripe is now rolling out a requirement that appears to target conservative or “anti-vax” Substack authors.

Tucker: Can the Tyranny Be Soft-Landed?

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-06-15 18:00 +0000
The excuse that this regime is better than it was, or might otherwise have been, only lasts so long.  Every transition government in history has deployed that trope. Think the Girondins in France, Kerensky in Russia, Weimar in Germany, the Second Spanish Republic, Chiang Kai-shek in China, and so on. In order, they were replaced ... Read more

MacDonald: “Democracy” Party Ousts Another Candidate The Peeps Chose

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-06-15 16:00 +0000
David Hogg is something of a Kardashian in Democrat circles. He’s famous for being famous for shouting and fist-waving after the Parkland shootings. A student of the school at the time, though, like Sandy Cortez, was neither present nor in danger. Hogg, to his credit, did not pretend to cry at the fence line, but ... Read more
