Disney Stomps Rainbow for Pay Day

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-05-09 12:00 +0000
In the wake of Disney’s announcement of a new theme park in Abu Dhabi, the question Democrats should be asking is, how could you? The capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), just a surface-to-surface missile throw from the Islamic Republic of Iran, seems an unlikely place for a Woke Mouse to set up house, ... Read more

Stop Lying About Zoning

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-05-09 10:00 +0000
Let’s first briefly mention the Underwood book, Stop Lying About ESAs, after which I named this article. I encourage everyone to read it, not only because of the controversy and misunderstandings involved regarding EFAs, but also because the polarization and vitriol present among everyone who’s not a Democrat are very similar.   One institution controversy (EFAs) ...

Trump’s Plan

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-05-09 02:00 +0000
His entire lifetime, Trump has been aware of the history of tariffs. As the consummate entrepreneur, Donald Trump discussed and warned the public about the rape of America by the elite globalists as these demons removed the manufacturing base of America across the oceans of the world to secure “cheap labor”—actually the cheapest labor—and reduce ...

Domicile and Voter Fraud Flashback

Granite Grok - Fri, 2025-05-09 00:00 +0000
My “other job” made demands of me this week that made recording a new edition of GrokTALK! Impossible. My apologies for a week without new content. Thankfully, I can share past episodes from previous iterations. I jumped into the Wayback Machine (there are more than 170+ episodes online to choose from) and pulled this segment ... Read more

Ultimatum to Mexico on Infected Cows

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-05-08 22:00 +0000
The possible outbreak could harm US cattle herds. Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins dispatched a sharp letter to Mexican authorities on April 26, threatening to halt some imports of cows, horses, and bison as early as April 30 unless Mexico cooperated in stopping a potential infestation of New World screwworm (NWS). Critics who object ... Read more

We Can Eliminate Medicaid Waste and Fraud, Saving Billions, House Speaker Says

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-05-08 20:00 +0000
Amid a hectic push to pass a House budget reconciliation bill by Independence Day, House Speaker Mike Johnson said Tuesday he thinks Republicans can find hundreds of billions of dollars in savings by eliminating Medicaid waste, fraud, and abuse. The Medicaid issue is the trickiest part of Republicans’ push to pass a bill, which would boost funding ... Read more

LGBTQ Org is Collecting Nashua Kids’ Private Information

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-05-08 18:00 +0000
In April, I discovered a flyer from New Hampshire Outright posted at the Nashua Public Library. New Hampshire Outright is “a non-profit dedicated to supporting, protecting, and advocating for LGBTQ+ youth across the state.” The flyer solicits kids in middle school and high school, so they could be as young as 11 years old, to ...

The Government Need Not Subsidize Constitutional Rights To Avoid Infringing Them

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-05-08 16:00 +0000
While the center-right spins up a recent District Court ruling that looks like another nail in the coffin of nationwide injunctions (restraining judicial tyranny is never a bad thing), another Judge Timothy Kelly just punched the DEI cabal in the throat. Background. Private Contractors sued the Federal Government on First Amendment grounds (among other things) ... Read more

Recourse Against Local Tyrants?

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-05-08 14:00 +0000
At a recent celebration of the Pine Tree Riot in Weare, some of the chat turned to the question of what recourse does a citizen have when government actors (“officials”??) infringe on a person’s constitutional rights based upon a claim of a violation of a statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage. While this writer has ... Read more

Another Janet Mills Scandal

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-05-08 12:00 +0000
Maine Governor Janet Mills has been hailed as a leftist hero for “standing up to Trump.” Democrats across the land hailed her, lauded her, and smiled their Cheshire grins, putting her on the national map. People know who Janet Mills is, but with great exposure comes the opportunity for vulnerability. Mills put her state squarely ... Read more

Is It Finally Time to Study SSRIs Properly?

Granite Grok - Thu, 2025-05-08 10:00 +0000
Questions have long been raised about the possible connection between Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) and violent crimes such as mass shootings at schools. Evidence that these antidepressants can contribute to violent behaviors, including suicide, has not prevented their widespread use – but a new recent Tennessee law may soon change that. The state will ... Read more

The Department of Homeland Security is offering to pay for illegal aliens to return home to their native countries. DHS announced that it would give illegal immigrants $1,000 when they confirm through the Customs and Border Patrol Home app that they have returned to their homeland.

Shifting Education Funding to the State Probably Wouldn’t Lead To Higher Spending

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-05-07 22:00 +0000
The movement to shift public school funding from local governments to the state is driven by a core belief that the shift will bring more funding. But that assumption is almost certainly wrong. The National Education Association’s latest annual report on public school data drew media coverage this week for its finding that New Hampshire’s ... Read more

Tariff and Spend

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-05-07 20:00 +0000
President Trump has proposed using the revenue from his increased tariffs to lower or even eliminate income taxes — with a priority on removing Americans making less than 200,000 dollars a year from the tax rolls. Exempting more Americans from income taxes — and lowering taxes on other Americans— is certainly a worthwhile endeavor. However, ... Read more

Senator John Fetterman Targeted By … Dems

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-05-07 18:00 +0000
I had never heard of John Fetterman before he’d had a stroke. I can’t speak to his pre-stroke politics and am not inclined to hunt them down. Someone in the Democrat party thought him a suitable meat puppet to prevent the Republicans from seizing a US Senate Seat in Pennsylvania. The same party that picked ... Read more

Climate Activist Admits No Real Savings from “Social Cost of Carbon”

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-05-07 16:00 +0000
Vermont climate activists in the legislature and beyond continue to insist that their policies will ultimately save Vermonters money. How they reach this mathematically questionable conclusion (apart from the scenario where the politicians rob Peter to pay for Paul’s “free” weatherization project and installation of cold climate heat pumps in which case Paul certainly saves ...

While I already wrote something about this year’s Nurses Week, our new governor has motivated me to do a follow up piece as she seemingly decided to snub these servants of mankind that went from heroes to zeroes during the Damn Emperor’s Reign of Terror.  You’ve heard me say it, time and again, ad nauseam.  ...

Fed Didn’t Want DOGE To Discover His Grift

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-05-07 12:00 +0000
In every procedural/cop show Hollywood produces, there are two tropes the writers can’t leave out. It’s as if they are required and will lose their guild membership if they do. Lawyering up is bad (sold as a sign of guilt), as is requiring a warrant before any search. I could go downtown and get a ... Read more
