Now that You Can Say’Lab Leak,’ Let’s Try, “Strategic Deployment”

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-04-22 12:00 +0000
The political left is still light years ahead of Republicans when it comes to repeating a thing so often that it becomes accepted as fact. It comes naturally to their jack-booted Orwellian proclivities and is foundational to the movement’s goals. And while the political right isn’t without its own skillset, beating the left at this ...

Vaccines, Autism, and Brownstone

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-04-22 10:00 +0000
t feels almost dangerous putting those three words in the title of an article. An easier path is not to raise the topic. It means getting Brownstone Institute tagged, targeted, and cancelled.  That’s how much taboo there is around this subject, which is itself deeply strange. If science is simply a matter of evidence and ... Read more

Creeping Sharia

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-04-22 02:00 +0000
The insidious nature of creeping sharia in infidel lands starts with wedging itself in by coaxing and greasing the politicians to enact/legislate seemingly benign and inconsequential little things, such as requiring stores to designate and completely separate halal food and meat from the non-halal. What is essential here is that ordinances and laws like this ... Read more

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-04-21 20:00 +0000

Spotlight of Positivity: Meagan Rose

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-04-21 18:00 +0000
There is a somewhat complex backstory to this article, and Meagan is not aware that I am writing it.  I surmise that she would reject the idea of being the center of attention, as it’s clear to me that she’s a quiet, humble woman.  I use the word QUIET to describe Meagan, the EC staffer, ...

Don’t Pay Down the National Debt. Just Stop the Deficit Spending

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-04-21 16:00 +0000
We often read of a variety of schemes put forward by pundits and politicians as a good way to pay down the national debt, even while ignoring the fact the federal government continues to rack up trillions more in debt every year.  For example, Jonathan Russo at The Hill last year insisted that it is very important to pay ...

Oh my, you could not have written a more sensational story than the real-life saga of Letitia James. Letitia James, the outspoken, Trump-hating attorney general of New York, is going to fall hard, very hard, and every Republican is going to cheer her fall.

To be honest, there is no real online vendor today that protects your child’s personal data that they collect. When you read their privacy statement, it will sound like your child’s personal information is secure, but they won’t tell you that their data is not secure. Many kids in school use I-Ready.

Proposed Vermont Law Could “Shield” Rapists and Child Molesters

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-04-20 12:00 +0000
Vermont approved a constitutional amendment protecting reproductive freedom, but not from the State Department of Child and Youth Services. And why the heck not? As I’ve suggested more than once, as written, there’s a lot of room to mess with the original purpose, which was to protect abortion. …if some judge declares the unborn a ... Read more
