MacDonald: Alejandro Mayorkas in Chains?

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-08-03 11:00 +0000
Ann Colter’s got a great piece over at Townhall directed at former Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. She wants to know why he hasn’t been arrested yet. It’s a fair question, as is “to whose homeland he was actually secretary of,” given his primary mission was to undermine the security of the Homeland. It’s not ... Read more

Opinion: Republican Form of Government 

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-08-03 02:00 +0000
On the last day of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, September 18, 1787, Benjamin Franklin was asked by a lady whether the government being proposed for the new nation was to be a Republic or a Monarchy? His now-famous response was, “A Republic, Madam, if you can keep it.” Republics are one of the world’s ... Read more

NH Supreme Court Crisis: Who Will Watch the Watchers?

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-08-02 21:00 +0000
From: A citizen for Transparency in the NH Justice System Our founders designed a government in which no man, however learned or cloaked in robes, would be unanswerable to the people from whom his power is drawn. They did not merely establish courts, but enshrined the expectation of character. If those who sit in judgment ... Read more

MacDonald: Zoning Oligarchs

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-08-02 18:00 +0000
Odds are good that thanks to all the “liberty” we got this past session in the wake of a slew of zoning bills, my prediction will come to pass. An increase in housing (notice I did not use the word affordable) will have limited practical improvement for some, but a significant net loss for liberty ... Read more

Opinion: How Not to Run a Political Party

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-08-02 16:00 +0000
It just amazes me how the Democrats do government. First, for a presidential candidate, they figure, let’s run a candidate who was never voted in the Democratic primary and someone who couldn’t manage a chicken coop. And let’s shove the Gay movement down Americans’ throats and trans second graders and fill the school libraries with ... Read more

Cardello: The Presidential Fitness Test Makes A Comeback

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-08-02 14:00 +0000
We have become a sedate, out-of-shape country that transcends mere inactivity, becoming couch potatoes who stare into our cellphones. With our decrease in activity, we have seen a correlating increase in diabetes, heart issues, and depression. We are not only lazy, but unhealthy, and we need someone to kickstart a change, and along comes President ... Read more

MacDonald: If Borders are Imaginary Lines …

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-08-02 11:00 +0000
A voiceover of this content is available here. Are you tired of the insane ramblings of watercooler lefties who insist there’s no such thing as an illegal person? That borders are just imaginary lines. And how dare you support Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers who kidnap people off the street and confine them without ... Read more

Warner: The Facts About Jeffrey Epstein and Israeli Intelligence

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-08-02 02:00 +0000
Although many people have taken an interest in Jeffrey Epstein’s salacious saga due to his conviction as a child rapist and sex trafficker, as well as his inexplicably mysterious death, the larger question surrounding the man was his apparent ties to Israeli intelligence via the Mossad or military intelligence.  Why?  Because if he was in ...

MacDonald: Breaking – NH Bans Hormone Treatments and Top Surgery for Minors

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-08-01 21:30 +0000
Last year, New Hampshire banned genital gender reassignment surgery. Earlier today, Governor Ayotte signed two bills, HB377 and HB712, that ban hormone treatments on children and top surgery. HB377: “Prohibits the performance of a medical procedure or the prescription or issuance of medication, upon or to a minor child, that is intended to alter the ... Read more

MacDonald: What Heat Wave?

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-08-01 21:00 +0000
We’ve had some hot days in my corner of the world, typically two or three in succession, followed by some (to be honest) unseasonably cooler days and nights in the low to mid seventies. It hardly matters what happens. It’s all your fault. But the blamestormers love a prolonged heat wave. Any sort will do, ... Read more

Cardello: AR-15 Kills 4 in NYC

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-08-01 18:00 +0000
Unfortunately, every time we have a senseless shooting, as we did on the streets of New York City, the Democrats go into the same talk track. They blame the gun for the shooting and downplay the shooter (and whatever issues brought them to kill innocent human beings. These people are fools and political mouthpieces who ... Read more

This week the Executive Council unanimously approved Governor Ayotte’s nomination to Commissioner of Education in New Hampshire. Caitlin Davis may not be a name that most people are familiar with.

MacDonald: Dumb White Libs

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-08-01 11:00 +0000
Do Democrats even realize that their response to a thing is often more fascist? Perhaps, the only fascist thing about the thing they are suggesting is fascist? Here’s an example. The usual suspects are losing their hive mind because American Eagle picked a pretty white woman to be the face of their brand. Triggerd doesn’t ... Read more

How Cultural Marxism Shapes America and the Democratic Party The name Karl Marx evokes images of revolution and class struggle—a firebrand whose influence has spanned continents and centuries. Born in 1818 in Trier, Germany, Marx’s groundbreaking manifesto, co-authored with Friedrich Engels in 1848, called for the workers of the world to unite and overturn capitalist ... Read more

Now we’ve got a story about an illegal who got caught when he tried to buy a firearm. Jon Luke Evans reportedly arrived legally in 2023 in Miami but overstayed his legal welcome. ... Read more
