Bowman: On Birthright and Citizenship

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-07-10 21:00 +0000
With his typical attention to detail, President Trump has opened up a Supreme Court can of worms by questioning the jurisprudence that the Fourteenth Amendment has been responsible for producing for too long. As depicted with this recent rash of nationwide injunctions, it’s apparent that lower courts have joined up with the top court’s current ... Read more

Cardello: Democrats Have Blood On Their Hands After ICE Ambush 

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-07-10 18:00 +0000
The ten amateur special forces dressed thugs who were arrested on Monday after they ambushed and opened fire on ICE officers in Texas on July 4 are the tip of the iceberg. These minions are incapable of thinking for themselves and are triggered by the people they look up to for direction. They are the ... Read more

MacDonald: IRS Rule Change Allows Pastors To Preach Politics Again

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-07-10 16:00 +0000
Seventy years ago, a practice hundreds of years old was kneecapped just a little bit. Those fiery sermons of old, which spread the call for liberty and independence in the Colonial era, were stifled. Even after the IRS was invented out of whole cloth, pulpit pounders were free to talk about politicians and even endorse ... Read more

Ortolano: Ethics without Ethics in Nashua

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-07-10 14:00 +0000
In April 2025, a citizen, Fred Teeboom, filed an ethics complaint against Nashua Board of Aldermen President Lori Wilshire. The concern centered on her decision to appoint herself to the Pennichuck Corporation Board of Directors, a city-owned utility subject to Aldermanic oversight, without disclosing she would be paid $12,000 annually, discussing the inherent conflict of ...

Deep learning algorithms, at the heart of artificial intelligence, have changed the way data is analyzed, processed, and delivered. Owing to the advanced capabilities of pattern recognition, predictive analytics, and automation in decision-making processes, deep learning algorithms bring data science to the next level.

MacDonald: Dems Chose Fraud Over Senior Citizens

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-07-10 11:00 +0000
One of the revelations from my most recent not-quite-a-podcast podcast interview with Phil Kerpen was the Medicaid fraud situation. There’s a lot of fraud, and the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB), now known as the One Big Beautiful Law (or the One Big Beautiful Act or OBBA), takes a chainsaw to numerous Medicare scams. First, ...

The new CIA director has uncovered proof that the CIA had direct involvement in the “Russia, Russia, Russia” hoax that the left tried to pin on President Trump.  How much longer do we need to wait until we see some arrests? https://directorblue.substack.com/p/cia-declassifies-indictment-of-cia Same story from a different source: https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2025/07/02/cia-director-john-ratcliffe-declassifies-review-of-2016-intelligence-weaponization-and-post-election-intelligence-community-assessment A defector from China has openly ...

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-07-09 23:00 +0000
In the days after the tragic natural disaster in Texas, which claimed nearly 100 lives, with many still missing, we are beginning to hear the heart wrenching stories as well as those of tremendous heroism that lift our hearts. We have heard about the young girls writing their names on their arms in case someone ... Read more

MacDonald: Trump Made Dems Demand Release of “Epstein Files”

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-07-09 21:00 +0000
Are There Other Tricks Up His Sleeve? I think it’s crazy for MAGA supporters to suggest breaking up the coalition over the Epstein Files FUBAR. They are not the beginning and the end of the elite’s international child sex trafficking cabal. Any list would be helpful in guilt-shaming globalist predators, but I’m not convinced it ...

Opinion: Malfeasance, Misfeasance, Inefficiency or Incapacity or Unfitness to Perform Duties

As a follow-up to my piece from January, which made awareness of a Library Trustee Candidate’s activism in the Transitioning Children space, otherwise known as legalized child abuse, I am sad to report that said candidate, Beth Labrecque Marrocco, was indeed elected as a Library Trustee for the Leach Library in Londonderry, NH.   (Of note, Liz ...

On April 22, US Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter to state Medicaid directors about the actions they need to take to “prevent the mutilation of American children.” The Department of Justice will investigate and hold accountable medical providers and pharmaceutical companies that mislead the public about the long-term side effects of chemical and ...

Underwood: Do EFAs Actually Save Money?

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-07-09 14:00 +0000
I’ve recently had questions from quite a few people about how Education Freedom Accounts (EFAs) work. During the conversations, they often mention that “the money follows the child” and “EFAs are saving money”. EFAs are one of many solutions for families for whom the default district school isn’t working. But families will be in a ... Read more

MacDonald: Neither “Climate Change” nor “Budget Cuts” Is Responsible for Flood Deaths in Texas

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-07-09 11:00 +0000
Vermont floods occasionally, but until recently, when politics and money were at stake, no one blamed it on your trying to live a comfortable, affordable life. These days, that comfort is to blame for something that has been happening since long before peasants could find much, if any, comfort. Flooding happens, and people build stuff ... Read more

Klar: The Seesaw Court History of the Ten Commandments on Display

A Louisiana law requiring the display of the Ten Commandments in public schools has been struck down by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals as unconstitutional. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott just signed a similar bill, which will likely struggle under the Fifth Circuit decision, while plaintiffs in Arkansas have filed suit challenging a nearly identical ... Read more

Smith: Free Speech Much, Alderman Dowd?

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-07-09 00:00 +0000
Great theologians and secular philosophers alike have advised us to “practice gratitude.”  I think it’s a great idea and I know I should do more of that myself.  One sign post reminder of that appeared in my inbox as a group email from a Ward 3 watchdog.  What is high on my “gratitude list” today?  ...
