I think we’ve more than made the case that a government that wants you dead will deliberately advance policies that make you want to kill yourself. Like a public health apparatus that makes you wait over six months for ‘care,’ but can fast-track your “assisted” suicide.

According to a recently released report by the Fraser Institute, healthcare wait times in Canada have reached a record high of 27.7 weeks, the longest wait time in the survey’s 30-year history and 198 percent longer than the 1993 average of 9.3 weeks. 

“Excessively long wait times remain a defining characteristic of Canada’s health-care system,” Fraser Institute policy analyst and co-author of the report Mackenzie Moir said in a December 7 press release.  

“And they aren’t simply minor inconveniences, they can result in increased suffering for patients, lost productivity at work, a decreased quality of life, and in the worst cases, disability or death,” he added. 

American Socialists promoting Obama Care were forever admiring and elevating the government-run healthcare of places like Canada. But even in the heyday of hope and change, wait times in the Great White North were excessive. Canadians were (legally) crossing the border into America for procedures they could get that week rather than wait months, and in the years since, the problem north of the 49th Parallel has only gotten worse.

The solution? Expand the list of people they’ve made miserable who can ask for Medical Assistance in Dying (State Assisted Suicide).

In 2022, a Winnipeg woman wrote in her posthumously published obituary that she chose to die by assisted suicide after being refused the treatments she needed: “I could have had more time if I had more help.”   

Help they don’t want you to have so they can help you kill yourself. A death wish for its citizens mirrored in the People’s Republic of Oregon, where legislators have made medically assisted dying easier and quicker alongside legalizing drugs that reduce once productive people into basket-cases suitable for their Medically Assisted ‘Headsman.’ Arranged and advocated by a collective of progressive thinkers. Ideological descendants of eugenicists who insist there are too many people in the world, or the Netherlands or Canada, Hawaii, Oregon, or my neighbor to the left, Vermont.

They were all about a master race until Hitler took their ideas and showed them what that might look like if you wanted to expedite things.

A slight course change. Contraception, abortion on demand, and then, a few years along (wait for it) … State-managed self-death. Not to ensure the survival of a master race. No, it’s climate change, you see. It would be best if you died so that their children can live in the same engineered world imagined by the Wilsonian Eugenicists without all that off-putting holocaust imagery (they’ve been denying).

You’ll ask us. There will be soft light, soothing music, a warm blanket, surrounded by your loved ones if you’ve any left.

It’s not a coincidence. And it’s not cruel and unusual punishment. We just said that to overwhelm the prisons.

They will continue to advance policies to make you miserable until you can’t go on living because the best thing you can do for yourself, your family, your community, and your country is dying, and they will be happy to help you do it.

They want you dead. If they can do it without ovens or gas showers or lining you up and shooting you in front of a ditch filled with the peasants they killed before you, they will. And by the looks of things, populations are prepared to let them.

Friends, HB 1291 is not just an ordinary bill that allows Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). It is HB 44 on steroids. Here is the bill in PDF format – HB 1291 Please notice the sponsors!

It is slated to be introduced on 01/04/2024 to the “Special Committee on Housing” which is a sham since out of EIGHT members, SEVEN of them are the bill’s sponsors!!!

HB 44 is a bill we defeated last year that would have allowed neighborhoods zoned single-family to chop up their homes into 4 units provided they were on municipal sewer and water.

HB 1291 makes no such distinction so long as the septic and well can serve the square footage per the town’s ordinances.

Please Submit Group communications or Press Releases to steve@granitegrok.com.
Submission is not a guarantee of publication – Publication is not an endorsement.

This means ANY single-family neighborhood can be turned into a rental nightmare with both ADUs attached and non-attached. Usually a normal ADU is one extra unit that is allowed to be occupied by someone related to the homeowner. These multiple units would have NO restrictions as to the relationship to the homeowner.

The arguments against this are:

– There would be NO more choice to live in your once-guaranteed single-family neighborhoods
– Doesn’t guarantee ‘workforce housing’ prices since the area would automatically get higher rental rates than in a city, and thus would likely not help the housing ‘crisis’ at all
– It’s an attack on the middle class and the family

Normally a bill like this would be heard before the House’s Municipal and County Government Committee. We should demand that it be heard there, and NOT in a committee whose majority is its sponsors!!!

The bill has been requested to be heard by the normal Municipal and County Government Committee of the NH House of Representatives. We will be appealing to whichever committee ends up holding the hearing and ask you to email or write to them with your testimony also.

You can submit your testimony online here.

Blaze Journalist Steve Baker has been notified that he must self-surrender to the FBI by next Tuesday. Baker was a reporter on the ground on January 6 (J6), and while he does not yet know what the charges are, I think we can guess.

Wrongful reporting. He appears to have made observations outside the approved narrative.

The left-wing Sedition Hunters compiled a rather impressive spreadsheet of all types of journalists, with designations of “Interior (Breach),” “Interior (Press Corps),” and “Restricted Grounds” assigned to 160 different “confirmed” journalists, and an additional spreadsheet tab listing 45 “unconfirmed” reporters and videographers.

When I first looked up the Sedition Hunters’ spreadsheet over a year ago, I wasn’t listed. So I contacted them and asked to be added. They didn’t respond to me directly. Instead, they blocked me from their Twitter page. A more recent search shows they added my name, along with my Locals blog link, my Twitter handle, and my Rumble page, with the “Interior (Breach)” designation under the “confirmed” tab.

This is not Steve’s first rodeo with the FBI. After an interview in 2021, after which he offered to share his footage with the Feds, he learned he would be charged with …racketeering and property damage. Steve went wide with the alleged charges, sending “over 200 copies of a press release notifying media organizations large and small that an independent journalist was being prosecuted for his coverage of January 6.” The  AUSA was not pleased, but Baker was never charged.

Fast forward to December 2023, and boom!

BREAKING My attorney has just been notified by @FBI that I am going to be charged by @TheJusticeDept for my journalistic efforts on #Jan6. I have to self-surrender on Tuesday. Charges are yet unknown. Stay tuned for more information to follow this afternoon.

Baker is not just some blogger, so we’d expect the same media that was pissed when it learned that Barack Obama’s weaponized police state was spying on them to come to his aid. Even if he were just a blogger, the media status of citizen journalists has been set by precedent. The government nor the media gets to define what that means. And yet here we are.

The FBI plans to charge one journalist who followed a story – along with 60 other journalists – into the US Capitol. I can’t imagine this will hold up in court, and I suspect the FBI knows this. It is an intimidation campaign. Lawfare. The FBI is sending a message to independent media.

The Feds will come after you for any reason they can contrive. Bring you in for questioning and try to catch you in a lie. One way or another, the goal is the same. Silence is the only free press left out there—independent media.

And we can always use your support.

Campaign for Vermont finally asked Vermonters directly the question our elected representatives have been avoiding for years in regard to their Global Warming Solutions Act (GWSA) fantasies: How much are you willing to pay to support the law’s greenhouse gas reduction mandates?

Vermonters’ overwhelming answer: not a #*&% thing!

When asked, “How much a year should Vermont residents be asked to pay in increased taxes in order to meet the Paris Climate Accord’s target of being carbon-neutral?” 50 percent answered nothing at all. Another 15 percent said $10 a year or less, and 23% said between $10 and $100 a year.

Ummmm… that ain’t gonna cut it. Just the thermal sector portion of the GWSA, the Clean Heat Standard, is estimated to cost the average Vermont household over $500 a year. The transportation portion, when enacted, is likely to cost Vermont drivers in the neighborhood of $10 per fill up. Changes to the Renewable Energy Standard under discussion for next year are estimated to add tens, potentially hundreds, of millions of dollars to Vermonters’ electric bills over the next decade. And all of these estimates are conservative. Back to the poll….

The policies for how to extract this money from the populace were even more unpopular. Asked if they supported or opposed “A plan by the State Legislature to subsidize CLEAN home heating systems and weatherization improvements by imposing a surcharge or tax on carbon-based home heating fuel, such as natural gas, home heating oil, kerosene, propane, and other forms of fuel,” 63 percent of Vermonters opposed the law, a majority (52 percent) strongly so. This sentiment was reflected in the tsunami of calls and emails lawmakers received before the Clean Heat Standard bill votes last spring. But, in spite of their constituents, 120 out of 126 Democrats in the House and Senate supported and voted to override Governor Scott’s veto of the Clean Heat Standard Bill (S.5/Act 18). Every Republican, like the majority of Vermonters, opposed this carbon tax.

A few days ago, University Presidents of Harvard, Penn St, and MIT were brought before Congress and grilled on anti-Semitism at their schools. Under oath, they dodged, ducked, and avoided straight answers. Worst of the bunch was Penn State President Liz Magill, who reportedly smirked at the questioners.

It seems as if Liz has backtracked now, saying that killing and the holocaust are unacceptable. Could this change of heart be because the Penn State, Wharton Business School has demanded her resignation? Or perhaps because Businessman Ross Stevens, who recently gifted Penn State with $100 million, has demanded his money back, or Magill gone?

If forced out, it would be one baby step in the right direction, in my opinion. Not only should she be given the boot, but every professor, teaching graduate, and every student screaming the “From the river to the sea,” the anti-Jewish terrorist chant, needs to be introduced to the wonderful world of a McDonalds employee.

Colleges and Universities in America have been a breeding ground for anti-Semitism. This has spread down to High Schools, as seen by the arrest of a 13-year-old boy in Canton, Ohio, who laid out plans to commit a mass shooting at the Temple Israel in that city. These kids are pawns for leftist professors and administrators, which is why they must be removed from any position where they can infect their hatred to others.

Meanwhile, in Gaza, it has been reported Hamas fighters have begun surrendering. Only about 120 so far, but though that sounds like a small number, these are men sworn to fight and die for Allah. They are voicing displeasure, it’s said, with their leaders hiding in a bunker deep underground while their people are dying in large numbers in the streets above. This may be the start of the end for Hamas, in wars when small numbers begin quitting others tend to follow but we will have to wait to see if this happens.

Keep in mind nothing will change anywhere until we remove leftists from positions of power everywhere, from local town officials all the way up to the US Congress and President. MAGA, vote for Trump in 2024

Here’s a quick decline of the American culture update. “In Fairfax County, Virginia, during the swearing-in ceremony, school board member Karl Frisch opted for a stack of books portraying explicit content and immoral behavior.”

I guess we could say that, at the very least, he’s standing up for or behind (perhaps with his pants down) his “convictions. And I’m willing to bet that it is an oath (to the books, at least) he will actually keep.
