MacDonald: 9-0 SCOTUS Ruling – Reverse Discrimination Is Discrimination

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-06-06 20:00 +0000
Members of a majority group have the same Civil Rights Act protections as everyone else.

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-06-06 18:00 +0000
Real Clear Wire Former governor and current mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo wants to raise New York City’s minimum wage to $20 by 2027. His political theatrics may benefit his poll numbers, but they’ll only make it harder for at-risk youth to find work. Given the undeniable link between youth delinquency and unemployment rates, New York should be ... Read more

Smith: Projection!

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-06-06 14:00 +0000
Melanie Levesque voted for an income tax.  That public service reminder never grows old, even though it’s been 3 election cycles since her 2019 crime against NH.  While it’s not an election year, I never miss an opportunity to remind everyone, ad nauseam.  Melanie’s dear buddy old pal Rosenwald gave me that opportunity yesterday.

MacDonald: The Democrats’ Land of “Working Class” Make Believe

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-06-06 12:00 +0000
Democrats used to pretend to be the party of the people, and the people believed them. Not so much these days, but they can’t win elections without working-class voters, so their hatred of primarily white middle-class Americans needs a cover story. Pay no attention to the globalism, policy that increases taxes, rasies the cost of ... Read more

Miller: Anthony Fauci Gets Demolished by White House in New Covid Update

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-06-06 02:00 +0000
Anthony Fauci must be furious. He spent years proudly being the public face of the country’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. He did, however, flip-flop on almost every major issue, seamlessly managing to shift his guidance based on current political whims and an enormous desire to coerce behavior. Nowhere was this more obvious than his ... Read more

GrokTALK!: Wrestling With “Conservatism”

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-06-06 00:00 +0000
This week, I take a few minutes to ask what happened to the word “conservatism.” The Neocons and RINOs wear it like a skin suit, muddying not just its meaning but how the world views people who claim to be conservative. What does it mean, what are its goals, and can we get there from ... Read more

Bovard: Did the Feds Label You a Covid “Violent Extremist?”

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-06-05 22:00 +0000
Biden administration policy-makers hated you more than you knew.  From the start of the COVID pandemic, I warned that the feds were vilifying anyone who failed to kowtow to the latest commands. In October 2023, I wrote: “Federal bureaucrats heaved together a bunch of letters to contrive an ominous new acronym for the latest peril to ... Read more

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) is expected to sign a bill banning cell-cultured proteins in the Lone Star State.

MacDonald: Celebrate Title IX Month!

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-06-05 12:00 +0000
Pride Month is a sex-cultural phenomenon, a social construct that, in some dystopian future, would be subverted and changed. Not the name. It’d still be pride month, but instead of being proud to share your obsession with your own sexuality or the virtue signal of forcing others to celebrate someone else’s, it’d be some other ...

Payday loans might seem like a quick fix when money gets tight. You borrow a small amount, promise to pay it back on your next payday, and move on.

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-06-05 10:00 +0000
“For the children.” That is a go-to justification for politicians and bureaucrats seeking to infringe on individual rights. It was on display last week in the final minutes of the testimony of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Marty Makary before a subcommittee of the Senate Appropriations Committee.
