The Dim’s Best Friend

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-02-24 21:00 +0000
How could so many dimwits run such a successful scam for so long without being discovered?  Especially in light of their salaries versus the mansions they have suddenly acquired!  This should have provided all the proof required for a serious investigation.  Could it be that what was originally deemed to be the government’s unofficial watchdogs ...

Is that news or gnos?

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-02-24 19:00 +0000
This morning I am seeing reports that Kash Patel will be named as acting head of the ATF.  When?  Oh, sometime next week.  Probably. I think that would be a good thing, but as someone used to say, I’ll believe it when I see it. It reminded me that for a while now, it’s bothered ... Read more

Have The Hunga Tonga Eruption’s Climate Impacts Worn Off?

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-02-24 17:00 +0000
One of the largest recorded underwater volcanic eruptions (Jan 15, 2022) sent record amounts of water vapor into the Earth’s atmosphere. As the single biggest driver of warming (water vapor), the Earth’s surface was expected to heat up a bit in and for a while in the following months. The problem was that most of ... Read more

Local School Board Abandons “Principles” For Money

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-02-24 15:00 +0000
Note: I just went to the Gilford School Board Meeting Minutes folder and discovered that the Meeting Minutes from the Feb 3rd meeting are missing. Why? It’s now 19 days later. And the School Board made some consequential policy changes due to a “Dear Colleague” letter that Superintendent Beitler received just before that meeting. They ... Read more

Dartmouth Health’s Bird-Brained Bird Flu Mask Guidance

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-02-24 13:00 +0000
You could put every ‘confirmed’ case of Bird Flu in the United States (in humans) on a Greyhound Bus. Fewer than 70 cases (68) out of a population of 340 million (ish). That’s 0.00002%. You’re more likely to get struck by lightning (1 in 15,300). And that’s just catching it. There have been no fatal ... Read more

Damn, You Got Some Explaining To Do

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-02-24 11:00 +0000
For four years, millions of illegal and unvetted people came from all over the globe to our southern border that Biden had replaced with a welcome mat. These illegal migrants (they became illegal the moment they crossed the Rio Grande and violated our sovereignty) are not all bad people, but they tried to come to ... Read more

No, Federal Contractors Are Not More Efficient than Federal Employees

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-02-24 03:00 +0000
In late January, the Trump administration issued a series of executive orders that paused Treasury payments to a variety of federal contractors and grantees. These orders also often cancelled contracts with NGOS and other contractors altogether. Soon afterward, we began to see countless media stories about job losses at private NGOs and for-profit federal contractors. ... Read more

Your State House 2/21/2025

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-02-24 01:00 +0000
This week, my committee continued public hearings. HB 694, requiring leases by state agencies be at fair market value, looked extremely simple, but the hearing proved otherwise. The problem some counties are facing is that the state rents courthouses and other facilities from them at very low rates, so that the counties are left to ... Read more

New HHS Secretary Curtails US Government Role as Drug Promoter

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-02-24 00:59 +0000
It has been commonplace for so long that most Americans cannot remember a time before the United States government was out running public relations campaigns urging Americans to take this or that vaccine or other pharmaceutical industry product. Now, an early action by new US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. suggests ... Read more

How USAID Assisted the Corporate Takeover of Ukrainian Agriculture

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-02-23 23:00 +0000
A recent essay titled “The Real Purpose of Net Zero” by Jefferey Jaxon posited that Europe’s current war against farmers in the name of preventing climate change is ultimately designed to inflict famine. Jaxon is not speculating on globalist motives; he is warning humanity of a rapidly unfolding reality that is observable in the perverse lies against cows, denigration ... Read more

Tales from the School Board – Superintendent Kirk Beitler’s Response to My FIRST RTK (About Him)

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-02-23 22:00 +0000
Remember, Beitler is the guy that I fought to denature as is also championed Policy JBAB (“Transgender and Non-Confirming”) because it gives special “Rights” to a very small minority of youth over all other Normal students AND adults. He also has now decided to champion the newly announced “Prism” student club by Gilford High School ... Read more

Yes, Voldemort Zelenskyy Is a Dictator

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-02-23 21:00 +0000
We can lump this into the “your COVID-19 vaccine is safe and effective” category. While I’m at it, we should add the Hunter Biden Laptop (Disinformazia), The Steel Dossier, Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin, George Floyd, and everything that comes out of Hillary Clinton’s mouth. The Covington kids, everything the media claimed in Trump 1.0, and ... Read more

Why NH Might Make Limited Social Drinking Legal in Some Public Places

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-02-23 19:00 +0000
The American Prohibition Museum is not in Chicago but tucked into an old brick building in Savannah, Ga., just off Congress Street. A $29.91 ticket to the museum comes with a drink at the adjacent speakeasy. In most American cities, that would be a perfect finish to a trip through the Prohibition era. Not in ... Read more

NH Sends a Message to Big Wind And The Greenwashers

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-02-23 17:00 +0000
The New Hampshire House has taken significant steps toward protecting the “fragile” Gulf of Maine from big wind and its ratepayers from higher electricity costs – acknowledging that the latter is arguably too little too late. Our electric rates suck, have sucked for decades, and keep getting suckier, so this week’s action is more a ... Read more

How Will Trump Changes Affect Vermont? We’ll Know Soon

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-02-23 15:00 +0000
What do the impending, across-the-board Trump administration and Congressional cuts to federal education, energy, and human services mean to Vermont? Ask this question to legislators and advocates in the State House and the response is like a Greek chorus chanting, ‘We don’t know, we don’t know, we don’t know.’ (Whether the play is a comedy ...

“If You Are FOR Government Waste …At Least Waste it Here!

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-02-23 13:00 +0000
It is not clear yet if anyone is going to swing (rhetorically) for all the corruption, fraud, and waste being unearthed within the payment systems of your federal government, but someone needs to go to jail. I think everyone can agree on that. The issue is who can be held accountable for the rank incompetence ... Read more

 Fish or Cut Bait on Climate Policies

Granite Grok - Sun, 2025-02-23 11:00 +0000
Vermont Democrats passed the Global Warming Solutions Act in 2020 over the veto of Governor Scott and the Republican legislative minority. That law mandates strict targets and timelines for greenhouse gas reduction set at 26% below 2005 levels by 2025, 40% below 1990 levels by 2030 and 80% below 1990 levels by 2050. And, so ...
