BANFIELD: Who Is Watching the School Budget?

Granite Grok - 1 hour 28 min ago

NH Residents Have Some Important Questions to Ask. In this video, a Timberlane school district resident explains the growing frustration many homeowners feel about school spending, administrative salaries, and the lack of meaningful financial oversight.

MACDONALD: Real Democrats Can Help Save America on Tuesday

Granite Grok - 4 hours 28 min ago

Some might argue that the Democratic Party is lost. Infiltrated by committed socialist zealots in the mold of Bernie Sanders and Sandy Cortez. A movement that has drawn dozens of DSA candidates out into the daylight in places where they feel safe running on ending the American Republic. People who are convinced that the Democrat ...

OPINION: They Should Support NH Values, Not The DSA’s

Granite Grok - 6 hours 28 min ago

What hit me immediately after reading “Here’s how much income you need to be in the top 1% in every state” was that the states with the highest top incomes (i.e., greater than $900K/year) were run by Democrats. They included California, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts (i.e., the bluest of the blue states). ... Read more

BOLDIN: Ignorance and Freedom Cannot Coexist

Granite Grok - 14 hours 28 min ago

“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, it expects what never was and never will be.” Thomas Jefferson understood what most people ignore today: Freedom demands a price: knowledge. Tyrants across history have weaponized ignorance for one reason: educated people argue. Ignorant people obey. They play whack-a-mole with control: When one tactic fails, ... Read more

MACDONALD: Deporting Criminals Reduces Crime?

Granite Grok - 16 hours 28 min ago

Democrats love crime, and that’s not hyperbole. These judges sneak them out the jury door, their prosecutors refuse to prosecute, and their legislators create lists of crimes no one is supposed to punish. Oh, and they refuse to arrest criminal illegals, block agents from arresting them, or, if in custody, let them go. Criminals, trigger ... Read more

MACDONALD: UPDATE On NH’s “Ballot Storage Box” Problem

Granite Grok - Sat, 2026-10-31 18:00 +0000

The Granite State has ballot chain-of-custody issues that the newly completed ballot storage boxes could make worse. I explored all of that this morning, but this story is moving fast. After scheduling but before publication, more news broke, and the wheels might be coming off this bus. This is, after all, a Federal Election, and ... Read more

MACDONALD: A Ballot Storage Box, Chain of Custody Fiasco – Days Before the Midterms

Granite Grok - Sat, 2026-10-31 11:00 +0000

Summary New Hampshire’s elections are not safe, clean, or well managed. And I’m not talking about the continuing problem of out-of-staters who have more voting rights than you; but as a reminder, anyone who can legally vote in another state should not be voting in ours. We can’t vote there; they can’t vote here, but ... Read more

OPINION: Ossipee’s Public Trust – When Does Official Conduct Become a Breach of Oath?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2026-10-31 02:00 +0000

An oath of office is a promise to the public. New Hampshire law requires town officers to take that promise seriously. Under RSA 42:1, violating an oath can lead to removal; RSA 42:1-a specifies a petition to the county Superior Court. Those provisions demand evidence and due process—not accusations mistaken for verdicts. I believe Ossipee’s ... Read more

Donald Trump has many facets that make him hard to understand, but easy to hate if you are on the left of center. It is hard to pick the dominant reason, so let’s break it down into Trump the person and then the President. Trump is compared to Reagan in many ways, and both were ... Read more
