MACDONALD: What If The Schumer Shutdown Isn’t About “Health Care”?

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-10-19 16:00 +0000

I’ve said it more than once. Democrats don’t care about health care because if they did, they wouldn’t have shut the government down “over it.” They would have voted for the clean continuing resolution to keep vets, seniors, and anyone on a government interference safety net, funded and covered. Claims that this standoff is about ... Read more

IMANI: Tim Walz’s Billion-Dollar Theft Machine

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-10-19 14:00 +0000

Thunder cracks across the frozen plains of Minnesota, but the real storm brews in the rotten core of Tim Walz’s regime – a grotesque empire of fraud that devours billions from hardworking taxpayers to fatten Democrat cronies and foreign grifters. This isn’t some shadowy whisper; it’s a full-throated roar of betrayal, where Walz’s lax oversight ... Read more

MACDONALD: Why Vermonters Can’t Have Nice Things

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-10-19 11:00 +0000

To any Republican who finds themselves caught up in a scandal over which Democrats are demanding they resign, say Jay Jones. Jones not only talked about killing a Republican, his wife, and their two children. When asked to recant, he doubled down.

KLAR: Food Supplies Threatened by Climate Change Policies

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-10-19 02:00 +0000

The climate change crowd may or may not intend to undermine farmers and food production, but it is an obvious result. Displacing farmland with solar panels and “rewilding” fertile pastures to grow trees for carbon sequestration reduces available agricultural acreage. This drives up land prices, making it harder for young farmers to take the reins ... Read more

Sportswriter Fred Lieb coined the term “The House that Ruth built,” referring to the old Yankee Stadium, which opened in 1923.  Not too far from Yankee Stadium is “The House that Hiss Built,”  which is the United Nations Headquarters.  Alger Hiss was the UN’s first acting secretary who co-authored, with a Soviet national, the United ...

Granite Grok - Sat, 2025-10-18 11:00 +0000

It’s a Saturday morning special edition (not at all as intimidating as a Saturday Night Special), but I had this on my mind and needed to let it loose.

The recent vote by the Executive Council of 3-2 against the re-nomination of Taylor Caswell as Commissioner of Business and Industry Affairs, I think, underscores something that is much more important.

BOWMAN: Let’s “Exalt” what Works, America!

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-10-17 14:00 +0000

Today is not a mystery but rather a continuation of the greed that captures the human heart.  Its latest alias, globalization, is today’s “must-have” need.  Its destructive quality, however, while masked by the terms of innovation and equality, is only a fancier brand of imagery that clouds our future destruction.  On a lesser scale, that ...
