Granite Grok - 1 hour 51 sec ago

It ... Read more

MACDONALD: They’ll Kill You ‘Cuz They Want To

Granite Grok - Sun, 2026-08-09 21:00 +0000

And because they can. The American Republic is sometimes sold as 50 laboratories, each of which can try its own things as long as it doesn’t trample on the natural rights the Federal Government was created to protect. Yeah, I know. Anyway, we can see disasters in real time, and we still have to explain ... Read more

MACDONALD: What Moron Zamdani Can’t Do

Granite Grok - Sun, 2026-08-09 16:00 +0000

Speed is a significant factor in the likelihood of a motor vehicle fatality, but people speed every day. Some people can’t NOT speed, except when they know law enforcement is present. Shoplifters are like that too. It’s not racial inequality or colonialist oppression that makes them steal; it’s that they are thieves, likely trapped in ... Read more

ROPER: Republicans, Remember to Vote – In the Democrat Primary

Granite Grok - Sun, 2026-08-09 14:00 +0000

First, let me say that open primaries are dumb. Parties should be free to pick their own candidates without outside shenanigans taking place, and if folks don’t want to be affiliated with a political party, good for you, that’s your choice, enjoy your summer, you get your say in the general election. That said, thems ... Read more

MACDONALD: How It’s Done

Granite Grok - Sun, 2026-08-09 11:00 +0000

Rick Olson is a contributor to these pages, though not for some time. Other priorities, and as I always say, if it’s not fun, then do something else. But he has hundreds, if not thousands, of posts on GraniteGrok, and, as I may have said before, we spend time together. Rick is a former Marine ... Read more

Another Breakfast with Claude TL/DR Synopsis: AUTHOR: (sliding into booth while putting umbrella under table) Radar looks lousy, Claude! Kinda like today’s AI economics forecast! How can big tech book AI-related future sales as a solid revenue stream? It sure looks like that’s what they’re doing! Why not let steel makers book future auto sales ... Read more

BANANAS: Erika Kirk Is No Jackie O?

Granite Grok - Sun, 2026-08-09 02:00 +0000

Few things have divided our nation of late like our relationship to Israel, the war in Iran, the Rocky Mountains, and who killed Charlie Kirk.  Many on the internet are not buying the official narrative that a college dropout with a 4.0 gpa somehow managed to ascend the roof of the Utah Valley University (UVU) ...

BEILAWSKI: Two Teenagers for TPUSA Get Love, Resistance, and Censorship From Vermont

Granite Grok - Sun, 2026-08-09 00:00 +0000

BARRE – Turning Point USA is trying to survive in deep blue Vermont largely on the backs of two resilient teenagers. TPUSA had a booth at the Barre Heritage Festival during the last week of July. They got lots of love and engagement, as well as the occasional middle finger from those who disapprove of ... Read more

MACDONALD: Hollywoke

Granite Grok - Sat, 2026-08-08 21:00 +0000

The latest installment of Spider-Man has saved the summer superhero movie business, for now, and offered some relief after Supergirl bombed at the box office. I’m still waiting on the blue-haired feminazi screeching about bigots and whatnot, given that Spider-Man did better than Supergirl. Maybe it’s the hyphen. Or maybe it’s that we’re not supposed ...

CARDELLO: The Left Cannot Condemn Fraud

Granite Grok - Sat, 2026-08-08 18:00 +0000

We have known for years that the pandemic was not the only scourge on Americans. Since 2015, millions of Americans have been afflicted with a serious, incurable disease that affects the ability to think clearly, but also impacts general mental health, usually manifesting in depression, anger, and rage. There is no known cure for this ... Read more

KLAR: Have MAHA Voters Been Betrayed?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2026-08-08 16:00 +0000

The 2026 midterms are in sharp focus as the Trump administration seeks to shore up voter support within the “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) camp that boosted Donald Trump into his 2024 election win. The recent US Supreme Court ruling in Monsanto v. Durnell applied federal law to block state tort suits for illness caused by glyphosate. ... Read more

PAGE: Burlington Backward?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2026-08-08 14:00 +0000

At Monday night’s Burlington City Council meeting, some Progressive city councilors and attendees mocked Democrat city councilors’ ‘Burlington Forward’ public safety plan as ‘Burlington Backward.’ They claimed the plan would return Burlington to an era of incarceration and forced removal of homeless encampments – both of which they deplore and insist won’t work.  The epic ...

MACDONALD: You Didn’t Hate the Biden Administration Nearly Enough

Granite Grok - Sat, 2026-08-08 11:00 +0000

I opened the blurb for Friday’s Morning Update with “You don’t hate the media nearly enough.” Thirty-Four hours later, and I’m thinking, you didn’t hate the Biden Administration nearly enough. It’s no secret that Donald Trump has taken the word “war on drugs” literally. He has blown up boats and invaded Cartel leaders’ homes. Venezuela is no ... Read more

MACDONALD: NY Can’t Enforce No-Mask Law

Granite Grok - Sat, 2026-08-08 02:00 +0000

Are we far enough away from the shadow of COVID that New York passing a law banning masks isn’t hilarious? Details, I know. The Empire State would never ban medical masks even if they were worn to conceal your identity, something federal agents in Border Protection and enforcement should consider the next time someone gives ...

MACDONALD: Ten Years Later

Granite Grok - Fri, 2026-08-07 21:00 +0000

Governor Margaret Wood Hassan signed New Hampshire’s hands-free device law in 2015. We told them it wouldn’t do what they claimed and might just make matters worse. After all, the research showed that people who got distracted still would, and people less inclined would be more often, as they tried to avoid detection. The law ... Read more

IMANI: Why Do Muslims Pray On Public Roads?

Granite Grok - Fri, 2026-08-07 18:00 +0000

The tarmac belongs to the state, yet the Islamic cult claims the asphalt for themselves every single Friday. Traffic halts, commerce bleeds, and emergency vehicles stall while hundreds bow in unison across active lanes of traffic. This public blockade is an act of war against civil order, a calculated display of territorial dominance disguised as religious ... Read more

CARDELLO: Forget the Big Tent, The Dems Have Thrown in the Towel

Granite Grok - Fri, 2026-08-07 14:00 +0000

The Democrats are being steamrolled by the Socialists, and they are letting them use the big tent for the slaughter. Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries have been claiming for months that the young radical DSA candidates were a welcome addition to the Party, but the truth is, the leaders of the Party have as much ...
