Manchester, N.H.
A sanctimonious “expert” is attempting to “Doc-splain” to their lessers the need to change their summer collegiate baseball team name because it’s “unhealthy.” I guess this Doc forgot that college “kids” are a rambunctious bunch.
And not too keen on being told what to do (reformatted, emphasis mine):
‘Macon Bacon’ Silences Activist Doctor Who Demanded the Amateur Team Change Their Name
Macon Bacon isn’t going anywhere.
The Georgia-based collegiate summer league baseball team released a statement Thursday, after being sent a letter from the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine stating they need to stop the “glorification of bacon.” The team made it very clear: “Bacon Yesterday. Bacon Today. Bacon Tomorrow.
“Bacon Forever.”
That is THE correct answer to these “everyones’ health IS our business!”. Experts are helpful at times – when they stay in their lanes. But I was glad to see that this team crushed them for their unwanted preaching:
The letter, written by the nutrition education program manager Anna Herby, stated, “Macon Bacon’s glorification of bacon, a processed meat that raises the risk of colorectal cancer and other diseases, sends the wrong message to fans.”The letter added the team should “promote plant-based bacon alternatives” and said the team could instead be named “Macon Facon Bacon.”
…“As role models in the community, Macon Bacon should set a good example for fans and stop promoting bacon.”
“Facon” – Har-har… not.
These students are KIDS playing a sport – not role models. Just stuff a big glob of tofu in your mouth if that’s how you feel.
In addition, a wee bit of infantilization of the Macon Bacon’s fan base? As if THEY can’t decide for themselves? So NICE of you to be the Food Speech Police. Never knew that was your purpose – to be “Nanny Doctors”? Sure, tell your patients that if they’re a bit chubby, out of shape, yadda, yadda – but ONLY if you yourselves are practicing what yer preaching (“like docs and nurses walking their talk line with a cigarette between their fingers and paunches overhanging their belts with back boobs”).
Great retort.
“We just wanted to make it known that we’re not interested in changing our name for anybody because we are the Macon Bacon, and we are the team of the community here,” he said. The Macon Bacon are in the West Division of the Coastal Plain League, a wood-bat amateur summer league. To participate in the league as a player, you must have played at least one season of college baseball and still have at least one season of college eligibility left.
These docs are like those that spoke up at a school board meeting DEMANDING (and then threatening) that the school board immediately institute mandatory masks across the district instead of the more nuanced “if there’s a classroom/grade/school outbreak, we’ll do a point solution and enlarge if necessary.” The docs got enraged as they proclaimed their expertise and their self-righteousness of themselves.
I’m glad to report that the School Board didn’t cave – we are supposed to be governed by elected representatives and not a technocratic Elite (although the Biden Bureaucrats are doing exactly that).
I’m just hoping that the Macon Bacon is going to run a series of “Bacon Plates for a Buck” promotions – and send fliers to the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.
Here’s the letter from the Doc to the Team.
Emphasis mine to point out the Woke:

I’ve lived in town for close to 30 years, and there have been several residents over the years with my name. According to the 11th circuit, that’s close enough for government work. If there’s a warrant for one of my doppelgangers, the Constitution allows them to scoop me up and detain me for 72 hours.
That’s what happened to David Sousa.
“IJ [The Institute for Justice] and several men named David Sosa are asking the Supreme Court to grant another David Sosa’s cert petition after the en banc Eleventh Circuit said the Constitution allows police to detain anyone for three days as long as there’s a warrant out for the arrest of anyone with the same name somewhere in the country.”
He wasn’t the David Sousa they were looking for, but he got detained anyway, and that’s a problem – from the petition.
This case is about the constitutionality of Florida police arresting and detaining David Sosa of Martin County, Florida, on a Texas warrant from 1992 for a man named David Sosa. To be clear, that’s not the David Sosa who chairs the philosophy department at the University of Texas.2 Nor is it the New York based songwriter David Sosa.
It’s also not the David Sosa who’s a cardiologist in Albuquerque,4 the one who works at the USDA, the law student at the University of Miami,6 or the David Sosa who owns a construction company in Winston-Salem. None of the David Sosas who submitted this brief are wanted in Texas, either. Two are from North Carolina and two from Los Angeles. Two of the amici David Sosas have even been confused for each other before! There are a lot of David Sosas in this
country—at least 924, if not more. Only one of them is suspected of selling crack cocaine in Harris County, Texas, back in the 1990s.
Okay, so there are a lot of David Sousa’s, and what about it? Why must the US Supreme Court get involved?
Ten of the 11 judges on the Eleventh Circuit ruled that Petitioner David Sosa has no legal recourse for police wrongfully arresting him twice based on the same blatant mistake of identity. Seven of those judges went much further and ruled that state officials do not even violate the Constitution if they hold an innocent person in jail for three days simply because that person shares a name with someone else in the country who has an outstanding warrant.
You don’t have to be David Sousa, just someone with the same name as someone else for whom the police have a warrant for arrest. The cops can show up, use force to arrest you, take you into custody, and detain you, and according to the 11th Circus, you have no recourse.
The writers in Hollywood will need to be careful not to add any dialogue about wrongful arrest for stories taking place in the jurisdiction of the 11th Circuit Court unless the Supremes managed to straighten the matter out.
I’d like to think a Court the same Hollywood writers would call conservative would see that, but there’s no guarantee.

Steve has been doing yeoman’s work on this story (here, here, here, here, here, and here) that so much of the history is now known. Then I got a call from one of the residents asking if I could show up for the morning Drag Queen reading / poke-in-the-eyes show at the Conway Public Library.
A second one was to be held later on in the day at the Pope Library in N. Conway. I had previous appointments/activities, so I demurred. However, it turned out that I was able to give that person a couple of ideas and tactics. While all the clips are outside (still waiting for more video to come in), it does show two things:
Heh! I’ve always held that when I grew up, I didn’t want to grow up. My critics would agree that I never have so WHY did Director David Smolen, given that this was a “Pride” event, discriminate against a TransAgist? Aren’t people now able to define their identities any way they want? That’s what the LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ/Alphabet Mafia wants for what THEY are demanding – but are they unwilling to support other “marginalized people”?
This TransPerson identifies as a 12 year old and wanted to listen to “Reverend Yolanda” reading “cutsie” books. Hater, that Drag Queen, Director David Smolen, and Christopher Bellis (Cranmore Hotel, N. Conway) for not being true to their movement and allowing her entrance to the event! Discrimination!
And just because I can, here’s what I put as the description of the video on our YouTube Channel:
This past Friday, the Conway (NH) Public Library was the host of a Drag Queen childrens’ Hour event. Even reserved a room!
And then the Director David Smolens decided, because it was Pride Month (that includes Trans People, right?) that only those with children were allowed entrance. Something about a library being a “limited forum facility” like a courthouse. Even the gay guy wouldn’t allow a transchild into the library (with his foreboding looking Mr. Muscle?).
And I bet the elected Representatives called “Trustees” (whose Code of Ethics basically hand the key off to Smolens, effectively distancing themselves from any “ownership” of the programs Smolens puts on) aren’t going to get closer than a 50 yard measuring tape on this one.
Why else would they not put their contact info on their Library page?

This week, we met in committees of conference. Since the budget was agreed without one, the atmosphere was much less stressed than previous years. My committee’s bills had generated six committees, and as chair, I served on four of them…

HB 358, my bill on the administrative rules process, had a three-part Senate amendment. The first part was clarifying language for the original bill, requested by the Administrative Rules staff; we accepted that change without debate. The second was SB 42, on unemployment overpayments, which had passed the House last week: that was removed from the bill without objection. The last change was an employer mandate to accommodate nursing or pumping mothers; we discussed that at some length. The Senate insisted on including it, and after they conceded on the social work compact (on HB 409), the House members reluctantly agreed to accept this. Since the federal government has some new regulations in this area, and the state requirements don’t go into effect for two years, the rather vague language of this regulation can be improved in the meanwhile.
HB 409, which started as a reciprocity requirement for barbers and cosmetologists, was actually better covered in HB 594, which dealt with accepting out-of-state licenses for all professions. Therefore, it was used to add a hefty bundle of changes to various professional regulations. The most significant were the investigation and discipline sections we had pulled out of HB 655; the subcommittee had kept working on them and shared the results with the Senators. So the conference committee went through these sections, making a few minor tweaks to the language.
We discussed the changes to the Board of Nursing: the Senate added two members, a registered nurse and a licensed nursing assistant, and required one of the nurses be a specialist in nurse education. More board members was not a problem – there are over 30,000 nurses in the state and the board has not had a problem meeting its quorum. Board members had convinced the House members (mostly me and the leading Democrat on the committee) that the education specialist was a conflict of interest, as the Board of Nursing approves education programs and regulates them. That was removed in favor of having an education subcommittee of the Board.
Finally, the Senate had added the social work compact to the bill. I, and the Republicans on the committee, were opposed to including this on the bill. First, the compact has not yet been formed, and we felt being “at the table” (as one of the first seven states to adopt the compact) when the rules were developed was not enough to counterbalance that by joining the compact at this time we were accepting its rules as law in New Hampshire – before we knew what the rules contained! Secondly, my committee has retained the compact as part of a retained bill, and we expect it to go to the House in January. So, we caucused, convincing the Democrat member that there was no real hurry on this section, and after some more discussion, the Senate agreed to remove the compact.
I wasn’t on the conference for HB 461, which we had passed as a penalty for employers who converted police chief or school superintendent to “part-time” so that they could hire retirees. The Senate converted it to a study committee on the issue; as expected, they were unable to reach any reasonable compromise.
HB 532, on licensing music therapists, was also amicable. The Senate changes were innocuous, so we agreed with their position.
SB 147, on the dental board, was quick: the Senate, convinced by the dentists’ association, agreed with the House position. We pointed out that the policy on deep sedation for children was being studied in SB 91, which was retained in the Senate Health & Human Services committee, and any policy changes could be implemented by that bill.
SB 207, on critical incident management and conditional licenses for mental health workers, also had a very cordial conference committee to incorporate some updated language.
All in all, a very cordial and efficient committee of conference season for my committee. Since the budget had been agreed as the Senate version, there was none for Finance. Apparently, the conflicts were over bail reform, which had been attached to a number of HHS bills this time…

The NH Attorney General’s Office is beginning an investigation into a protest in Concord on June 18th at the Teatotaller Coffee shop during a Drag Story Hour.
Free speech is never free if the government can strip it from you.Nazis vs. Groomers
NSC-131, a white supremacist group with chapters throughout New England, conducted the protest. You’re probably wondering. If the government investigates their protest, they must have done something illegal.
Well, you would be wrong. Despite their horrible beliefs, they did nothing illegal.
NSC-131 certainly has some ignorant and disturbing views about race, but they have every right to think that way. They also have every right to be able to say those horrible things because it is an unalienable right to do so.
The First Amendment from “The Bill of Rights.”
This isn’t the first time.“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
This isn’t the NH AG’s first time going after this group for the wrong reasons, either. In January of this year, charges were filed against NSC-131 for a July 2023 incident where the group hanged a sign from the Portsmouth Route 1 overpass.
“So hanging that banner without permission was a trespass,” said New Hampshire Attorney General John M. Formella. “What was written on the banner makes it pretty clear that that trespass was motivated by race. And so that was a violation of our Civil Rights Act.”

Leftist Think Tank PropagandaIn April, an anti-fascist, anti-nazi organization called Task Force Butler tried adding fuel to the fire, egging on the NH Attorney General’s Office by giving them a 300 hundred page report on NSC-131’s activities.
Task Force Butler, founder Kris Goldsmith, had this to say,
“We hope that with 300 pages of evidence of violent hate crimes across four different states, that attorneys general, districts attorneys across various states and counties and cities will work together and treat NSC-131 like what it is — a violent gang — and get creative,” he said. “Use things like racketeering laws to dismantle them, charge them with hate crimes.”

Well, the thing is, they aren’t the mafia, and you can’t just go after a group of people that haven’t committed a crime just because you don’t like them.
They also don’t like Trump supporters. I found this on their site, where they equate the January 6th protestors to Nazis.
The Bill of Rights Wins Again“Task Force Butler is also named after Marine Corps General Smedley Butler. Enshrined in Marine Corps history as one of two Marines to receive the Medal of Honor twice, General Butler’s legacy and impact on American history after leaving the Corps is less known, but arguably more important than anything he did while in uniform. In the early 20th century, then-retired General Butler was approached by a corrupt group of extremely wealthy and influential American businessmen who asked him to help them overthrow the United States government by leading a mob of homeless veterans camped in Washington, D.C. General Butler went along with the plot long enough to gather as much information as possible about who was behind it before turning over all the evidence to Congress. It was, in no uncertain terms, the closest historical parallel to what occurred on Jan. 6, 2021.”
Attorney General Formella learned this the hard way on June 6th, when in a 21-page opinion, Rockingham County Superior Court Judge David Ruoff dismissed the petitions, ruling that the state’s interpretation of the trespass ordinance, as well as the Civil Rights Statute, was overly broad as it applied to the banner. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the case, arguing their actions were protected on free speech grounds and that they removed the banner as soon as they were notified by law enforcement that they were potentially violating a Portsmouth ordinance.
The Honorable David Ruoff has this to say.
“The conduct alleged in the complaints, while reprehensible by most civilized standards, does not fit any definition of ‘trespass’ other than the one the Court has concluded is unconstitutional.”
The Attorney General did not like that response, and so on June 16th, they appealed the decision, arguing,”
“There is a general right to access public roads, parks, and sidewalks,” the attorney general’s office said. “They are traditional public fora. Yet, there is no unfettered right to affix and display signs on a highway overpass because it is a nonpublic forum and the conduct is prohibited by statute.”
In Conclusion
Do I like Nazis? No, I probably dislike them more than my Grandfather, that fought them in WW2; however, you can’t just prosecute people because you don’t like them. Every man, woman, and, yes, even Nazis have the right to free speech. It is a God-given right and one that is unalienable.
Even sadder is that one of their leaders and defendants in the recent case, Leo Cullinan, passed away before he could change his ways. I hope that God has mercy on his soul. If you wanted to convince men and women that their ideas are wrong or immoral, allow them to be debated on the front stage instead of making them sit in the back of the bus like these Nazis would have liked Rosa Parks to do.

We’ve written about the high cost of NH Biomass energy and the redistribution math that costs ratepayers millions. Well, the Governor has a new bill on his desk that would sweeten the deal, but if this is about jobs, it would cost ratepayers less to pay the workers to do nothing.
Drew Cline, writing at Josiah Bartlett, has an update on the Biomess, the redistribution scheme, and the new bill. He makes excellent points, as he usually does, on topics like this and shares how we got here and why it makes no sense. HB142, that new bill, would make that bad deal worse.
To save 30+ jobs at the plant and some 200+ timer jobs that could probably find other destinations for waste wood. It’s got a big price tag, and the Governor, who advertises how tax-friendly he is, should veto HB142 because it is a massive tax on taxpayers and ratepayers all over New Hampshire.
Signing it will add to our already record high electric rates, which is bad for more reasons than I’ll get to here because it occurred to me there was another way to make a case for a veto.
I don’t know what Burgess Biomass employees make or the five-score timber folks, but can we agree it’s probably less than 100,000 per year?
If we gave the Biomass folks each 60K to do nothing(which is the national income average), it would cost 1.8 million. Add the 200 timber workers, and that’s another 12 million. Paying them not to increase our electric rates would save New Hampshire ratepayers over 135 million dollars on top of the reduced cost of electricity from not having to pay higher rates.
We’d continue to save more, even if we had to extend the severance for several years, than if Sununu signed HB142.
Cline calls it a subsidy, which it is, but it’s more than that. It’s an insane subsidy when it makes more sense and saves a small fortune to shutter the business being bailed out and pay the employees to do nothing.
IN-SANE! We shouldn’t even be able to do that math. Why is this even on his desk?
The millions saved by the rest of the businesses and residents can go into savings or productive investments in local businesses that will employ more people in jobs that don’t cost taxpayers or ratepayers more money.
After the plant shuts down, Jeb F-ing Timber-Tool Bradley can encourage someone to retool the Burgess plant to make wood pellets that pellet stove owners would buy. It would create more jobs, keep his Timber cronies happy, and generate revenue for Berlin and the state.
I bet you could raze the Burgess plant and build a new pellet-making facility for less than this subsidy will cost long term.
HB142 is not just a bad idea and bad for New Hampshire; it is “makes no damn sense” bad.
Note: Yes, the math is simplified for this example, but there is no version of this where it makes sense to bail out so few jobs with that sort of money and tack on the expected electric rate increases.

October 13, 2021, is NH Governor Sununu’s manufactured “insurrection”. Hundreds of people peaceably assembled to vehemently oppose Sununu’s desire to accept a $27M grant to set up a NH covid tracking database that would be connected to a national database.
The grant also committed the state to “assist the US government in the implementation and enforcement of federal orders related to quarantine and isolation” among other serious obligations that usurped our Constitutional Rights.
Related: IMPEACHABLE OFFENSE? NH Governor SECRETLY Pressured State Reps to IGNORE ARRESTS of Nine Americans UNDER HIS WATCH!
Nine of those peaceably assembled citizens were targeted by Sununu and then arrested during the meeting.
It is difficult for anyone not present at the meeting to believe the blatant abuse of power by the Governor and the State Police. The disturbing arrests were portrayed by the media as an insurrection in a fabricated propaganda campaign led by WMUR. Nothing is further from the truth. Videos by those who attended – as well as the official state recordings – show all attendees quietly and respectfully sitting in their chairs observing the meeting.
When the arrests suddenly began with Mrs. Bastarche and Frank Staples, those in attendance were quiet and respectful – and they remained quiet and respectful – INCLUDING BASTARARCHE AND STAPLES as they were taken out of the room! The videos prove their innocence.
Mrs. Bastarache was ridiculously charged for “uttering Amen.” A word that every person in the room uttered – including the Governor – after he led the meeting in prayer. I was there and can speak with first hand experience.
The defense has issued a subpoena for Sununu to testify. Watch the following video, and you will understand why. This story provides timecodes and identifies Sununu’s disturbing actions throughout the video.
The trial began this morning, Tuesday, June 27, 2023. Mrs. Bastarache and the others that were arrested at the October 13, 2021 Executive Councilor’s meeting deserve our support during their fight for our Constitutional Rights to peaceably assemble and to petition the government for redress of grievances – as well as the blatant abuse of power.
This trial may be the beginning of the end of Chris Sununu’s governorship in New Hampshire.

What do you say to the American people when you preach from the highest hills that you will get the rich to pay their fair share and your son is a tax evader? What do you say when you want 87,000 new IRS agents to shake down Americans evading tax payments, and your son settles his tax debt for pennies on the dollar?
What do you say when you use any tragedy to call for more and stricter gun laws and expanded background checks, and your son falsifies his federal gun paperwork and applies for gun ownership while a Crack and alcohol addict? You say nothing. You ignore questions yelled at you by pool reporters. You have your spokespeople go into a blackout and deflection mode. You say you are proud of your son, have him attend a State Dinner on the day his plea deal is announced, and have him sit with the United States Attorney General for drinks and dinner.
This scenario is what equal justice under the law looks like when your last name is Biden. What makes us the angriest is not the sweetheart deals but the arrogance and lies from Joe Biden and his Administration, treating us like the underclass. Joe Biden is royalty, and for the fifty years he has been sucking off the public dole, he and his family deserve all they can cheat and steal. Just shut up, go about your business, and accept what you see as fair and just.
Attorney Merrick Garland addressed the country this week to assure them that everything in the Hunter Biden case is above board and by the book. Unfortunately, just like a Greek Pizza Shop, there are two sets of books. With the AG, we are not getting the book kept on top of the desk. Merrick Garland has no credibility. His handling of parents versus school boards shows he is a small man who requires large doses of power. Garland has been complicit with our corrupt President to weaponize the Justice Department against anyone threatening the movement. He went on the record to say no one should question the integrity of his department. Sir, we should all question the integrity of every aspect of Government. If not, we end up with the likes of the Biden Administration.
There are many aspects of the Justice Department and Intelligence Agencies now. Biden weaponized them against Republicans (MAGA, MAGNA, or however Biden pronounces the term); they are not carrying out justice equally and are definitely corrupt. This analysis may not describe the lower levels of these agencies, but the leadership hierarchy has to be dismantled. We cannot sit back and wait for this to happen organically. The rot is too entrenched, and these leaders have established a power base linked for protection. They also have the mainstream media in their ranks. To prove this, you only need to look at the list of former leaders on the payrolls of CNN and MSNBC. You will find many of the names of the 51 signers of the Russian Collusion memo on that list.
The House will not let this plea deal rest without more digging for the truth. They cannot simply talk about it. We need action, or their credibility will go the route of Adam Schiff. You cannot continue to tease Americans. You, at some point, have to show your cards. Grassley, Comer, and Jordan-let us see what you have now.

It is hard to believe how quickly we’ve forgotten the most significant terrorist attack on American soil. So, let me remind our readers once again. On September 11, 2001, nineteen Islamic terrorists, primarily Saudi Arabian citizens, hijacked four commercial aircraft.
In a synchronized attack, the hijackers deliberately flew two planes into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center and a third into the Pentagon. The passengers on the fourth plane launched a counterattack, spurring the hijacker pilot to crash the plane into a field in Pennsylvania.
Approximately 3,000 died that day, the single most significant loss of life resulting from a terrorist attack on American soil.
After these attacks, I saw many car stickers saying, “Everything I Needed to Know About Islam I Learned on 9/11.” Well, not.
Islam and Sharia continue to creep into every aspect of American culture stealthily. And too few people know it or are talking about it. Why? Because Americans have been conditioned to be tolerant and compassionate, embrace multiculturalism and respect each other’s beliefs, ideals, and values. That would be wonderful in a Utopian world, but the fact is, Islam doesn’t embrace any aspect of Western civilization—much less American culture. We are rapidly and methodically being dismantled as a nation, and our freedom and liberty are more fragile than ever since WWII. And while we fight the enemy abroad with combat troops, intelligence, and drone strikes, we’re doing nothing to combat the same enemy residing on our soil and in broad daylight.
This is no longer an alarm. Our enemies are already here and planning to make America like another European country. Suppose we don’t defeat Islam politically, lawfully, and swiftly. In that case, our children and grandchildren may well be engaged in an endless religious and ideological bloody war, the likes of which have never been seen on American soil.
Islam is a theocratic political violent ideology that hides behind the mask of religion to accomplish its mission of a worldwide caliphate. Americans must understand Islam is a totalitarian “theo-political” belief system and a social doctrine (the two go hand-in-hand) based on the Quran, Sira, and Hadith, what Dr. Bill Warner of the Center for the Study of Political Islam aptly coins the “Trilogy.” It has mandates on every aspect of life, enforced and regulated by the barbaric criminal and civil codes known as Sharia Law. The precise definition of a Muslim becomes crystal clear when you read the trilogy of Islam. Bottom line: you are to be an Allah-fearing, Quran-believing, and Mohammed-following zealot that forces people to submit, convert, and comply with Islam and Sharia or be killed. Those are the facts.
Does every Muslim follow the commands of the Quran? No, thank God. But as they superficially assimilate into communities and increase in numbers, they become more militant and less tolerant of that community’s laws and regulations.
Any religion or ideology whose “holy book” commands its followers to commit crimes that are antithetical to the laws of this country should not only lose its tax-exempt status but lose its 1st Amendment protections and be banned from the United States altogether. In case you are not familiar with some of the condoned atrocities of Islam and Sharia law, let me tell you a few facts.:
Are you aware that women are stoned to death for committing adultery, and according to the interpretation of Islam, gays should be thrown from a high building and then stoned if they are not dead when they hit the ground? Or that the genitals of little girls are mutilated(Female genital mutilation or FGM) in an attempt to control their sexuality, and that children may be murdered in the name of family honor? And last, Islam does not recognize the separation of church and state and doesn’t follow our Constitution or any artificial laws. They have their laws: Sharia or Islamic laws.
In countries where Islamic enclaves and ghettos have emerged, like France, Britain, Sweden, Belgium, and North African countries, local Imams or mullahs enforce Sharia law regardless. Most Americans fail to understand that Sharia law is the foundation of Islamic theocracy and totalitarianism. The establishment of global Sharia law is their final goal. The Quran is unequivocal in its directive to Muslims to establish an international Islamic state (Caliphate) over which the Islamic messiah, or Mahdi, will rule with Sharia as the only law of the land. Make no mistake that is the intent of influential Islamic elements in America.
Organizations such as the Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) fully exploit our naiveté and lenient laws to install Sharia law. Moreover, Islam starkly contrasts the Declaration of Independence, the US Constitution, and what the First Amendment was designed to protect—our God-given, unalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Sharia law is complex and derived from multiple Islamic sources: the Quran, considered the “unmitigated word of Allah,” is the primary source of Sharia law. The Hadith (sayings and actions of Muhammad) is the second most crucial document in Sharia and Sira (the life of prophet Muhammad). Historic rulings by jurists over the years and so-called reasoning by analogy make up the other two less-influential sources of Sharia. Together they constitute Islam’s theological core and result in a totalitarian way of life for Muslim followers and non-Muslims (kafirs and infidels). Sharia law completely contradicts American values because it enslaves people and encourages acts of violence and barbaric behavior. Sharia demands the death of those who renounce Islam.
In short: Mild Islam may not appear too obtrusive to some since it is like the early stages of pregnancy. Yet, pregnancy it is. And before long, the full-term beast will make its appearance. If we don’t want to deal with the beast, we need to prevent the pregnancy in the first place.The post Willful Blindness appeared first on Granite Grok.

As we approach the July 4th Weekend, the polls that didn’t seem to mean much – or perhaps “shouldn’t be taken seriously” – are beginning to mean a lot more, and that’s a problem for Ron DeSantis. He was doing better when they didn’t appear to mean much.
DeSantis, who has been branded by some supporters as the electable Republican (in anything like a fair general election), either isn’t selling that message, or Republican Primary voters are not buying it.
A.G. Gancarski, writing at Florida Politics, recently published an update on the polling as Ron runs back to New Hampshire looking to make a dent in Donald Trump’s prodigious … polling lead.
The Race to the White House polling average shows Trump ahead of DeSantis 45% to 13% in a crowded field, with Christie at 8%, and 49% to 25% if the race were somehow just two people.
DeSantis has attempted to glow up the Granite State at the expense of Florida and its residents.
“I was born and raised in Florida, and it’s only been recently that we’ve developed a sense of state pride ourselves,” DeSantis said at a party dinner this Spring. “We’re proud to have stood up for freedom in the last few years when it wasn’t easy. We did it our own way and I’m proud of that.”
“But I must admit, we draw inspiration from the people here in New Hampshire,” DeSantis continued. “Because more than any other state, you don’t mince words when it comes to your stand on liberty. You say it very clearly: Live Free or Die.”
Trump is ahead 53-19 in California, 54-9 in West Virginia, and 43-18 in South Carolina. Nationally RCP has an NBC news poll dated June 25th with Trump up 52-22. Trump is up 59-27 in Maine, 41-25 in Wisconsin, 48-28 in Virginia, and 53-21 in Nevada, but it is well within the margin of error at 27-26 in Utah.
To get to Utah (and Super Tuesday), Ron DeSantis has to get through Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Nevada with a lot of dead weight pulling him down. Chris Christie, Pence, Haley, and the rest of the GOP castaways. There are too many not Trump’s and only one Trump, and he has a record to run on with three unique qualities. He promised to do Republican-like things, he did the things he promised, and they worked.
He did not clean out the swamp. It cleaned him out, so there’s reason to believe that will repeat in 2024. Donald Trump also has some COVID response baggage he has yet to unpack effectively, and DeSantis has him dead to rights on that. Gov. DeSantis has done Republican-like things that worked in Florida but with a friendly Republican legislature with similar priorities. DC isn’t like that, and even with a divisive Republican majority, Trump managed to get some things done, though he could have done more if Congress had been on his side instead of either pandering to Democrat lies or hiding behind them.
Is DeSantis either of those, we don’t know, but Democrats are not afraid of their agenda, no matter how crazy. Republicans not only run from theirs, but they also use the left’s narratives to label them and anyone who promotes or defends them as extreme.
Republican primary voters like Trump’s style better.
In 2016, Trump won the GOP primary with 35%, including NH insiders, outsiders, and many new voters. His closest competitor was John Kasich, who captured 16%. Ted Cruz landed third with 11%.
In 2020 President Trump won the New Hampshire primary with 86% of the vote (after winning Iowa with 97%). His closest competitor was … William Weld, with 9%, followed by 2.3% (write-ins), primarily conscientious objectors or never-Trumpers after four years of non-stop badgering, two impeachments, and the rest of it.
DeSantis is currently 2024’s John Kasich in New Hampshire (Weld doesn’t count), but he lacks the outsider cred that four years of Biden have only made more necessary. He was a great Governor for Florida, but even with a new set of negatives, Trump’s appeal to primary voters is hard to beat.
DeSantis’s appeal among GOP primary voters is that he is not Trump. That he will not produce a down-ticket washout (or so they say). That he is the adult on the ticket to Trump’s childish name-calling antics. But that is obviously not enough to get Gov. DeSantis the nomination, and while we’ve got eight months (give or take) before the polling numbers are for delegates, it’s time to ask this question. If you won’t vote for Trump at all in 2024, would you vote for Trump – DeSantis in Nov. 2024, or is Trump so rough that even Gov. Ron can’t win him your vote over the Democrat (presumably Biden).

It’s every bit as important to the Mike Grahams, the Chris Sununus, the Bill Barrs, the Mitch McConnells as it is to the Communists Democrats that you believe that the 2020 election was free and fair.
It’s essential to Mike Graham et al.’s narrative that GOP voters believe that 2020 was a massive … MASSIVE … repudiation of Trump AND that the same thing will happen if Trump is the nominee in 2024.
It’s a LIE. A big, fat LIE. 2020 was the most corrupt election in the history of America:

If you want to sum up New Hampshire’s child abuse and censorship problem in a nutshell, look no further than this from 2012 about the election of Stacie Laughton. You will notice that the link to Stacie’s interview with the Nashua Telegraph has now been removed – at whose orders?
We want to thank Claire Best for this Contribution – Please direct yours to Editor@GraniteGrok.com.
You can review our ‘Op-Ed Guidelines‘ on the FAQ Page.
The NH Press Association, formerly headed by Howard Altschiller, married to Dem Rep Debra Altschiller because it’s politically inconvenient.
Laughton is more focused on using the position as an opportunity to improve society: advocating for the homeless, those in low-income housing, and those with mental illnesses and physical disabilities. She also said she would like to strengthen the public school system.
Child abuse recognizes no political affiliations or genders, but unfortunately, the NHCADSV, HAVEN, DCYF, Children’s Trust Fund, and Children’s Advocacy Centers are too tied up politically and too tied to the Judiciary and Police to be able to see the wood from the trees because it doesn’t suit their fundraising narratives.
Stacie Laughton got a pass. Henry T Nicholas III (who funded Marsy’s Law campaign) got a pass (Amanda Grady Sexton told the public not to pay attention to news reports of his sex, DV, and drug abuse history). Police Detective James F McLaughlin got a pass (he used sexual images of children to federally entrap) but was rewarded by the New Hampshire Police & Fire Department for lifetime achievement while the AG’s office helped block his history of misconduct from becoming public.
Stacie Laughton has now been arrested for child pornography in a daycare center. The NHCADSV of course, is silent as they were when a Manchester Middle School teacher was arrested for sexting with a 6th or 7th-grade male, as they were when Phillips Exeter Academy covered up sexual abuse because their funding relied on the goodwill of Governor Hassan; as they have been about Chuck Douglas’s ordering of a 13-year-old female rape victim back to YDC because she failed to name her rapist. As they were about James F McLaughlin and his use of child sexual images to federal,ly entrap in the name of cracking down on sexual assault as they were when a female from Concord pled guilty to sex abuse of minors in YDC.
It’s not complicated. Public funds have been abused in New Hampshire to promote a dishonest judiciary in bed with non-profits who cover up and hide sexual abuse in partnership with their relations in the media.

The post New Hampshire’s Child Abuse and Censorship Problem in a Nutshell appeared first on Granite Grok.
With inflation battering the peasants and long-term recession looming, the first priority of Vermont Democrats was to add hundreds of millions in new spending and then increase their own salaries so they can afford to live with their policies.
We wrote about the pay and benefits hike for elected officials back in May. The Dem majority was trying to fast-track it without public input. The bill was eventually passed and then vetoed by Gov. Scott.
The poverty-stricken legislature does not have enough votes in the State Senate to override. But they are working on it because, according to Chittenden Central Sen. Tanya Vyhovsky,
“… the bill was needed to ensure that more working Vermonters can afford to serve in Montpelier — something that she says is not true today.
“The barriers to service in the General Assembly are astronomical, which is why the demographics of the General Assembly do not match the demographics of Vermont,” Vyhovsky said. “And this is a problem. This is one of the reasons why we have such a difficult time meeting the needs of average Vermonters.”
She’s not all wrong. It is clear that the priorities of the legislature do not match the wishes of voters, but piling on salary and benefits will take an already overpaid body and turn it into a professional political project. It is also true that one of the priorities of Democrat majority legislatures is to turn them into full-time professional occupations. Raising pay and benefits will do that and the citizen legislature is anathema to the progressive project.
The Founders pictured people coming to serve for a few years out of duty to the interests of friends and neighbors and then, out of necessity, drawn back to the source of their means. Government service was a public service, not an occupation. You made your living farming or ranching or shipbuilding or lawyering, jobs that pay the bills just waiting for you after a stint serving the people.
But much like the news, once they figured out they could make money on it, truth and transparency went out the window.
Job one becomes serving the needs of the political cult and those that feed and water it regularly (lobbyists, special interests). The will of the people being a barrier to overcome every few years with fast talk and false promises, and lots of lobbyist and special-interest money.
To the progressive mind, elected office is a tenured position that starts the moment you adopt their priorities, retained until retirement or death when the latter is not in fact, the former.
Professional politicians are difficult to unseat. Paid professionals are even more so. This is not new, it is not news, and everyone paying attention knows it.
The goal is a permanent one-party state run by people who get paid a lot more than most to rob everyone else. And there are no examples of Democrat rule where this is not the case, nor are there examples where this formula results in prosperity for the people at the expense of the people in charge. It’s exactly the opposite.
That’s what Vermont Democrats are building, and I don’t think the “peasants” have the votes or the will to stop it. I’m not even certain they see the threat.

Do you know about Doug Burgum? He’s a Republican. He’s the Governor of North Dakota. He is Reaganesque, and he is running for President. He would be the PERFECT candidate … IF it were 1983. It’s not.
It’s 2023, and America’s most dangerous enemies are DOMESTIC, not foreign – Mayorkas, Wray, Garland, Biden, and their ilk pose a far greater threat to America than Xi or Putin.
Yet in the glossy SIX-page flyer I received, there is not a mention of the threat the FBI/DOJ and the CIA/”Intelligence-Community” pose. Instead:
Doug will rebuild our military and win the cold war with China. His energy policies will help defeat Putin …
Winning the Cold War with China means taking on Blackrock, JP Morgan, and all the other “American” businesses who are funding China’s military buildup by investing in China in lieu of America.
Putin is not Hitler. He is not even Brezhnev, and the border dispute between Russia and Ukraine could’ve and should have been avoided. But Biden/Blackrock chose WAR and big profits for the military-industrial complex … over compromise and peace.
It’s not 1983, Doug. America’s most dangerous enemies live in and around Washington, DC.

United Nations peace is more deadly than war. Without a shot fired in our land, U.N. theft of our liberty continues. 90% of U.N. “peacekeeping” is funded by your taxes.
We want to Russ Payne for this Contribution – Please direct yours to Editor@GraniteGrok.com.
You can review our ‘Op-Ed Guidelines‘ on the FAQ Page.
Yet, the peacekeepers serve the interests of the United Nations while our national sovereignty continues to erode. Did you know that the first Secretary General of the U.N. at the San Francisco Conference, Alger Hiss, was later exposed as a Soviet Agent? Alger Hiss and Soviet Foreign Minister Andre Gromyko co-authored the UN Charter to promote U.N. “peace of the graveyard.” The generational “Deep State” plot to create a New World Order depended on senatorial ignorance and public trust in 1945. Today, it depends on uninformed voters that continue to support this evil, mythical dream.
The majority of our people must awaken from apathy and ignorance about the U.N. and stand up for our troops. Informed voters must convince Congress to rise out of their timidity and challenge the unconstitutional process that permits the U.S. President to request a UN/NATO Resolution to go to war. The only permanent solution is to restore congressional power to Declare War per Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution to get out of the U.N. and to get the U.N. out of the U.S.
What is the root cause? American citizens who vote for boughten, spineless representation. We have hired the congressional incompetence that permits presidential collusion with the UN/SEATO/NATO to supersede the authority given to Congress by the Constitution. As we view in the mirror the bloodstains of all of our American soldiers, some of that vivid picture of congressional moral cowardice belongs to us that surrendered the power to declare war in Korea, Vietnam, and the 20-year War on Terror. Have you paid a personal price for a U.N. war they call peace?
We cannot continue to let the majority in our Congress remain silent, for the surrender of this power hides their commitment to sending our sons to battle with no accountability. Silence enables Congress to hide from responsibility. We cannot continue to trust the lives of our sons and daughters to their inaction. Bucking the party line of the two major parties takes courage. An intimidated representation that allows the surrender of “war powers” to continue must be punished at the ballot box.
Get out of the bleachers and onto the playing field at jbs.org. Help Get the U.S. Out of The U.N. Demand that your Senators and Representatives sponsor and support the American Sovereignty Restoration Act. Then make a difference in N.H. Support a bill to stop our state’s support of unconstitutional wars. HB229 will nullify sending N.H. troops to fight them.
Note: HB229 is currently retained in the committee and won’t see ‘action’ until the next session.

Reporter Tom Elliott has compiled a compelling list of facts pointing out the US government’s institutional corruption. You’ve likely seen some or most of them, but they paint a disturbing and unpleasant picture of America when laid out in succession.
They are also evidence of systemic internal interference in U.S. elections by the police and surveillance state.
Democrats love to talk about election meddling, but it is nearly impossible for anyone willing to pay attention not to conclude that this is projection to distract us from all of their election meddling. And, of course, it is. Everything they do is that. It’s rule number one. If Democrats are accusing someone of it, this is because they must be doing it.
And how does that make you feel about all the Republicans, including governor (Sununu), who could take the evidence and beat the Democrats relentlessly about it (the way the Dems flog Republicans with Left-Wing lies) but instead pander to the Progs narratives to smear a guy (in this case, Trump) who has been the object of police and government abuse of power on a scale that rivals anything in the nation’s history?
Most of them would wilt after even a fraction of that, but Donald Trump is pushing back and claiming back. Whatever you may think about him – and be honest about whether it isaccuratee or just another internalized Democrat-Party talking point, he’s probably the only politician who has your back.
The Establishment, political/ruling class elites don’t, and Elliott’s listcements that reality, either through their inaction or indifference, accounting for the handful of pols who are engaged but will never do anything significant base-appeasement via dog and pony hearings, “a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Here is the tweet – the complete list is replicated below.

— Tom Elliott (@tomselliott) June 24, 2023
1) An I.R.S. probe into the Bidens money laundering payments from hostile nations — the normal outcome of which would have ended his candidacy — was instead given a stand-down order
2) The F.B.I. & I.R.S. wanted to search Biden’s house in September 2020 but were given a stand-down order.
3) The @FBI authenticated Hunter’s laptop a year before the NYPost first reported on its contents
4) Rather than use the laptop’s voluminous documentation of myriad felonies to initiate criminal investigations, the F.B.I. hatched a plot to warn social media companies of an imminent “hack & leak” operation of what they heavily suggested was Russian disinformation
5) The F.B.I. used its 2016 Russia collusion probe — which the Durham probe has since proven was essentially an extension of the Clinton campaign — to rationalize its meddling in the 2020 election.
6) The F.B.I. also conducted an influence operation with various reporters at major newspapers to convince them that forthcoming damaging reporting about Biden that they knew was true was in fact not
7) The F.B.I. was spying on Giuliani when he shared the laptop’s contents with the NYPost
8) When the F.B.I. told Twitter & Facebook a Russian disinformation campaign was coming, they had already concluded Russia wasn’t trying to game the election
9) In their attempt to corroborate their own rumor of Russian electoral influence, the F.B.I. became aggressive with its demands for user data from Twitter, eventually getting shutdown for seeking users’ private info without a warrant
10) Nonetheless, in the preceding years, the F.B.I. established a beachhead inside Twitter, with an operations center of former agents who communicated via their own dedicated slack channel. These ex-agents included Jim Baker, the F.B.I.’s former top counsel who played a central role in the F.B.I.’s Trump/Russia scam, as well as Comey’s former chief of staff, Dawn Burton, who started the F.B.I.’s Russia collusion probe.
11) The C.I.A., in collusion with the Biden campaign, seeded disinformation claiming the laptop was itself Russian disinformation. The major media used this as a pretext to avoid reporting on its contents and instead attack those who were.
12) The F.B.I. also arranged a meeting with Sens. Grassley & Johnson about supposed Russian disinformation & Hunter Biden.
13) The F.B.I. then used this briefing with the senators to justify quashing their own agents’ probe into the Bidens’ corruption.
14) When the story broke mere weeks before the election — one that polling later indicated would have altered enough Democrat votes to send Trump to a second term — Twitter & Facebook orchestrated an unprecedented & anti-democratic mass censorship campaign.
15) When Twitter initially resisted censoring the story, it was Jim Baker who convinced them to do so (despite the F.B.I. having known for a year the information was true).
16) In December 2020, after the operation’s success and Biden’s “victory,” the F.B.I. agents working at & with Twitter celebrated the outcome.
17) The F.B.I. subsequently paid Twitter $3.5 million for the staff hours expended on their influence operations.
18) At the time Trump was being impeached for asking Ukraine to investigate Biden’s alleged corruption in Ukraine, the F.B.I. & I.R.S. already knew the Bidens had indeed laundered more than $10 million from Burisma, via fake companies and dozens of bank accounts, while at the same time VP Biden had used U.S. aid as leverage in getting the Ukrainian prosecutor investigating Burisma fired.
P.S. And that’s to say nothing of Democrats orchestrating a state-by-state campaign to change voting rules to enable the widespread adoption of voting boxes … Left-wing activist groups, funded in part by Facebook, facilitated the exploitation of these drop-off boxes on behalf of the Democratic Party. That part may not have been illegal since they simply changed the rules, but it’s especially shady since it was done alongside federal health agencies then-knowingly overstating the threat of Covid, which was used as the rationale for the change of rules in the first place.
P.P.S. And this is just what we know despite the feds’ best efforts. Imagine how much we don’t.

We’ve seen this blatant truth from the Alphabet Mafia before. And while I generally say, “believe politicians’ actions (legislation and votes), not their words,” the San Francisco Gay Men’s Choir appears sincere about their LGBTUVWXYZ agenda.
WARNING: NOT SAFE FOR WORKThe San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus released a song outlining how they’ll “convert your children.”

The NEXT video shows way too much – especially in public where children might be watching – and these marchers don’t care. And they wonder why there’s a growing backlash against them. Many of us said that their push for “equality” was just code for “you gave us an inch, now we’re going for your throats.”
Confirmation from one of New York City’s Drag Marches.
These sad sacks are completely honest about what one of their aims is – going after Parents. Sure, their rallying cry is about children, but the real message is for Parents. We will hurt you by going after your children. And the problem for Parents is that the LGBT movement is in full control of where their kids spend more of their days: Government schools. Too many staff members believe and act that Parents hate their children.
Again, it’s the Childism philosophy, that bastard offshoot philosophy of Critical Race Theory applied to nuclear families, that believes all Parents are Oppressors and children are Oppressed. Can’t be any clearer on how Critical Race Theory can be applied to nuclear families as a tool to destroy them – from a previous post of mine (about a 1/4 of the way down):
Progressives, in their never-ending crusade to force everyone to adhere to their religion, have added another commandment to their list of evils: Childism. They describe it as “anti-child attitudes” which lead to oppression of children. What fresh hell is this? you may be wondering. Not so fresh actually: two psychiatrists, Chester Pierce and Gail Allen, proposed the theory back as 1975. They described it as “the automatic assumption of superiority of any adult over any child.” One can assume that this would include parents as well.
…But in 2012, psychoanalyst Elisabeth Young-Bruehl resurrected the theory in her book, Childism: Confronting Prejudice Against Children. The book’s description reads, in part:
In this groundbreaking volume on the human rights of children, acclaimed analyst, political theorist, and biographer Elisabeth Young-Bruehl argues that prejudice exists against children as a group and that it is comparable to racism, sexism, and homophobia ….
…Rather this emerges from a generation which has acquired these two beliefs: 1) that children are not gifts from God, but are expendable prior to birth; and 2) the ultimate achievement in life comes not from raising responsible children, but from attaining fame on social media.
…The scientific theory of Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget has long instructed those who study child development that there are four stages of cognitive development. Piaget also found that a child can’t begin to understand abstract concepts until the adolescent years. Later, 2009 research from the American Psychological Association asserted that emotional maturity lags behind cognition in those same adolescents. Yet anti-Childists insist that immature children must have authority to control their lives. And adults who would deny them that? They’re exercising bigotry similar to racism.
And this article does a throwback to my first snippet:
The speaker also told students that “parents aren’t safe, and that it’s OK to lie to them about where they are in order to attend this meeting.” The mother added:
She doubled down that parents aren’t safe [and] that heterosexuality and monogamy are not normal.
The school district acknowledged that such a club does exist, but would not address the mother’s allegations. Yet anti-Childists would insist that such undermining of parents is perfectly appropriate. Because a 12-year-old has equal rights to their parents, who are guilty of bigotry should they deny the child what they want.
So the bottom line is, in their own words (even as the SFGM Choir disavowed their song after the HUGE blowup over it), believe them. They mean it. It gives new meaning to the phrase “Gay Conversion Therapy.”
