Lemiska: Another Democratic Brainstorm – Sidling up to Evil

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-05-21 10:00 +0000
It’s no wonder that the approval ratings for the Democrat Party remain at record lows. Party leaders can’t seem to come up with an agenda that isn’t devious, deceptive, and self-serving. More often than not, their political strategies are just plain bizarre. Who can forget their “defund the police” fiasco? During the 2020 presidential election, ... Read more

Bovard: There’s No Vaccination against Unlimited Political Power

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-05-21 02:00 +0000
Late in the last century, theater goers were jolted when a character in the X-Files movie declared that the Federal Emergency Management Agency can allow “the White House to suspend constitutional government upon declaration of a national emergency.” If the same line was used before thoughtful movie audiences nowadays, the response might be bitter cat ...

Real Clear Wire The Secret Service may try to force former FBI Director James Comey to answer pointed questions into a social media post he issued depicting an image of “8647,” but a U.S. attorney whom President Trump appointed will determine whether to prosecute Comey over the post.

Mills: A New IEA Report and the Iberian Blackout End Dreams of an ‘Energy Transition’

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-05-20 22:00 +0000
RealClear Wire It’s no secret that the Republican’s “Big Beautiful Bill” plans to axe large swaths of mandates and billions of dollars in subsidies directed at achieving a so-called “energy transition.” If that budget axe falls, it will be the proverbial third strike that puts to rest the idea that the U.S., never mind the ...

JR Hoell: Take Action. Today.

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-05-20 20:00 +0000
We stand at a pivotal moment to challenge the unconstitutional restrictions of the National Firearms Act (NFA) concerning suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and short-barreled shotguns. Two critical bills—the Hearing Protection Act (H.R. 404) and the Stop Harassing Owners of Rifles Today (SHORT) Act (H.R. 2395)—must be included in an upcoming budget reconciliation omnibus bill. These bills will eliminate ... Read more

Federal officials are reevaluating the security risks posed by Chinese-manufactured components found in solar power equipment after discovering undocumented communication devices capable of compromising the U.S. energy infrastructure, according to a new report from Reuters. The devices are installed inside Chinese-made inverters, which convert solar energy into electricity. They transform the DC current that the panels ... Read more

MacDonald: The Indoor Tanning Lobby Has More Pull Than the US Constitution?

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-05-20 16:00 +0000
You’d be right to wonder why, when you’ve finally got a majority in both chambers and the Chief Executive is one of yours, you’d waste your time on a bunt when you could swing for the fences. Ironically, we’ve got that in New Hampshire and DC, but Republicans don’t seem to know what to do ... Read more

Monohan: Grafton County Commissioners Disgraceful Behavior

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-05-20 14:00 +0000
I have served the people of Grafton County as the register of deeds since 2011. It has been a rocky road, as I am outspoken and passionate about what I do for the people who have an interest in real property in this beautiful county. I also have far too much experience in handling bullies.  ... Read more

Imani: De Niro’s Trump obsession and Hollywood’s hypocrisy

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-05-20 02:00 +0000
For over a decade, Robert De Niro, one of Hollywood’s most celebrated actors, has been a vocal critic of Donald Trump, escalating his attacks from pointed critiques to expletive-laden rants. His disdain for the former president, whom he has called everything from a “punk” to a “clown,” has become as defining as his iconic roles ... Read more

MacDonald: Wassup With Joe’s Ass-Cancer?

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-05-19 20:00 +0000
Narrative battle lines are being drawn as the improbability of the Joe Biden presidency crashes headlong into the improbability that Joe’s Stage 4 Prostate Cancer “emerged” in the last three months. Let’s get this over with: To anyone on the left calling for us to forget about Joe’s missing marbles, or the massive, RICO-quality, Democrat ... Read more

The ACRE Act of 2025 Must Be Opposed Few things are more destructive to liberty than when laws are written under the guise of compassion or economic aid, only to conceal their true purpose: the enrichment of the powerful and the institutionalization of inequality.

Wiles: James Comey And The Assassination Culture

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-05-19 14:00 +0000
Former FBI director James Comey has lowered himself to become one of the most despicable of deep-state, swamp creatures. Unlike Lurch of Addams Family fame, the slightly shorter, 6’7″ version has far fewer redeeming qualities. He joined other Communist sympathizers who had lurched the Democrat Party to the edge of the Marxist lagoon of swamp ... Read more
