Opinion: The American Left Is A Very  Real Existential Threat

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-07-21 18:00 +0000
Since the 1990s, federal agencies and the media have fed Americans a steady diet of panic about shadowy “right-wing militias” — usually ex-military guys obsessed with guns and ready to wage war against the government at a moment’s notice. The panic went into overdrive after January 6th, 2021. But now, in a staggering act of ... Read more

Cardello: Proud To Be A Conservative Patriot And I Will Not Apologize

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-07-21 14:00 +0000
I will not stereotype or cast all Progressives in one basket, ala Hillary. Still, it is becoming crystal clear that the Left is fixated on destroying our country as we know it and condemning anyone not on their side. I have no issue with debating policy differences, but that does not appear to be an ... Read more

MacDonald: What Obama ‘Fundamentally Transformed’ Was The Democrat Party

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-07-21 11:00 +0000
Barry Obama burst onto the scene about as green as a politician can be. He had almost no experience with government or much else. But he wasn’t ugly, he could speak well, and he was black. Hillary Clinton never had much of a chance. Her party swooned. He was the LA Times’ magic Negro. “The ... Read more

This week the online news outlet VT Digger hosted an event in Brookfield titled, “In Facts We Trust: Local Journalism in the ‘Fake News’ Era.” They described it thus, “In an era of misinformation, how do we know the news we’re seeing is accurate?

Cardello: Is This Finally The End Of Adam Schiff

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-07-20 21:00 +0000
Oh, we can only hope so. Adam Schiff has been the epitome of all that is wrong with government. He was an ineffective Congressman and opportunistic enough to graduate to the Senate, where he still resides in his own version of facts, truth, and democracy. Since 2016, Adam Schiff has been a prominent figure in ... Read more

Harrington: Vetoes Leave Residents at a Loss

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-07-20 18:00 +0000
When the people perform the arduous process of creating new state law through government, it works by starting in the State’s House of Representatives. A State Representative introduces the newly suggested law to their State’s House, and it gets voted (in or out) there first. If it gets voted IN through the State’s House of ... Read more

Gaud: I Have Seen The Future

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-07-20 14:00 +0000
American society is rigged. It is designed so that the educated, connected elites succeed and everybody else fails. There’s no sugar coating it. By the age of 12, children of the wealthy are four grade levels above their peers and 77 times more likely to go to an Ivy League school. Once they reach adulthood, ... Read more

MacDonald: New England’s Net Zero Mission … Is Impossible

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-07-20 11:00 +0000
There is no shortage of net-zero (Nut Zero) content on these pages. We’re also not shy about taking any or all of the states in the ISO New England system to the rhetorical woodshed. Energy policy in the Northeast is blinkered and on a path to doom. The only positive news has been recent moves ... Read more

While Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi support the Communist Democrat Zohran Kwame Mandami, who is running for mayor of NYC, and then rant and rave against Donald Trump and his “America First” supporters, a lone Democrat United States Senator John Fetterman (from Pennsylvania) and Dan Turrentine, a life-long Democrat strategist, decry the insanity of this ...

MacDonald: Using Medicaid Rolls to Find Illegal Aliens Is a Great Idea

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-07-19 21:00 +0000
One of the more clever things the Trump Administration did when it took the reins from whoever was in charge (still subject to debate) was to retool a mobile app launched by the Biden Administration. CBP One was deployed to allow “migrants” seeking asylum to set up appointments for screening. Translation: How do I get ... Read more

Sims: A Missed Opportunity to Protect Women and Girls in New Hampshire

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-07-19 18:00 +0000
As a woman, athlete, and gymnastics coach dedicated to girls and women, I am disappointed by Governor Kelly Ayotte’s recent veto of House Bill 148, legislation designed to safeguard the rights, safety, and fairness for female athletes and women throughout New Hampshire. This bill was a necessary step toward protecting women’s single-sex spaces—ranging from locker ... Read more

It’s been a while since I last wrote about the goings-on in my backyard. It’s usually wildlife or ticks or something. Last year, we had a lot of birds; this year, not so many, but the Catbird is still here. We’ve got more bunnies, which is what happens when you find you’ve got at least ... Read more

Best: Does Anyone Actually Adhere to the Laws in the NH Justice System?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-07-19 14:00 +0000
As a moral matter as well as a legal matter, to quote David Vicinanzo from an article at InDepthNH, the State’s decision to keep the Grand Jury Criminal Investigation report private without a public hearing or notice is a betrayal of all those kids abused at St Paul’s School.  David Vicinanzo represented “most, if not ...
