Institutions and the “Elites” within shattered the trust of ordinary citizens when, instead of staying with the Servant/Leader model in which they were subservient to the people, they decided to abrogate that relationship.

The “End Point” of DIE Meets Critical Race Theory in Progressive Politics
California Gov Gavin “Hair Gel” Newsom (with that winsome smile and those You can trust me, I’m not like the others” eyes) just did this after the passing of Dianne “I’d take all the guns if I had the votes” Feinstein.
Can the “Snatch-Defeat-From-Victory Party” Keep From Screwing This Up?
Why was the thought “like bringing a Michelin star level 10-course tasting meal to a 6-year-old” rolling through my head when I saw this?
He May Have Brought This Upon Himself but Did He Lead Others To Believe as He Did?
I’m sorry to hear that Josh Kruger died, but when he chose to ignore reality, and that reality then bit his backside (and bit it hard), a comment on the relationship between these two things is perfectly allowable.
Small Biz Bankruptcies Rising Thanks to Bidenomics
By creating an inflationary regime via policy (I blame Biden and his Socialist/Communist minions for this problem), the Fed’s predictable response is to start raising interest rates – a major factor for just about every small business.
Can We Replicate That Joke about Lawyers by Subing In The Democrat Ruling Class?
And throw in ANYONE that believes in “open borders” as well?
What is being done is what we already saw in Britain: “We don’t like the current electorate (because we keep losing), so let’s import a new one.” The Labour Party did exactly that and soon started winning more.
I Am Returning – Finally. It Has Been Too Long.
Steve noted not long ago, (paraphrased): “Notice something missing? Yeah, content from Skip. He’s been missing.” Indeed I have been. In fact, this (I think) is the second time I am saying the same thing but with a modifier: I [think] I am back. And I am glad that I can, again, finally put keystrokes to GraniteGrok.
Cloud and Sun – Great and Calming. On the Other Hand: Entitled Massachusetts Driver. MA Plate 187-D30
Yeah, not a fan at all. If you are in or familiar with the Lakes Region, this car was parked in the Shaw’s parking lot across from Lowe’s in Gilford/Laconia. I had driven over from Lowe’s to pick up a couple of items and found this selfish Flatlander believing they could inconvenience people with their Bright, New, Shiny Subaru Forester with Massachusetts plate 187-D30.
The Social Worker-Industrial Complex Has Gone WELL Beyond “Dispositions”
Well, after almost four months into this “gig”, I finally saw the breadcrumbs I expected to see. Read on! Yes, DCYF is still taking up the bulk of my time as I’m still having to “bird dog” all kinds of details for them (“the Division”) and the last of the School District in getting the … Read more
Since Dan Richard Referenced SCOTUS Bruen Decision, Here’s the Important Bits (Abridged)
Dan, in his Surreply in his Election Law suit against Gov. Chris Sununu and other officials, elected and appointed, uses Bruen to buttress his argument. Thus, it is worth reviewing to see the actual underpinnings to his case but from my uneducated eye (and Dan’s explanations), the reach of Bruen may well extend FAR beyond … Read more
Notable Quote – Another Adjective for “Transgender” is Narcissistic
Don’t believe me? Try this one on for size (reformatted, emphasis mine): In a turn of events, Shannon revealed after 14 years of marriage, her husband met someone online who led him through a “medical transition.” Her husband also lost interest in partaking in certain activities with their children that he previously enjoyed doing. Furthermore, Shannon … Read more
NH School Districts Giving Themselves the Power To Force Staff Members to Lie to Parents: Trans-Authoritarians
Parents Defending Education has a summary of the 1,040 School Districts in which School Boards have abused their Powers (Government has Powers, Individuals have Rights) in forcing their staff members, including teachers, to lie to Parents concerning the transgender/gender dysphoria of their children when asked (either tangentially or directly).
Data Point – NH Electorate is Switching Parties
Interesting. I was actually scurrying around the NH Secretary of State site looking for something else (dang if I can remember now) when I thought this was what I wanted. It wasn’t but still kinda interesting. Look at the SECOND arrow and compare it to the June 16, 2021 numbers a 17% drop in total … Read more
Promoted From The Comments: Bud Forgot Who is REALLY In Charge
Recall Prof. Sowell’s truism about minimum wages, that “The Real Minimum Wage is Zero” is talking about the person who DOESN’T get the job because the Government has artificially screwed up the Marketplace by hiking the cost of doing business.
“How Coffee Shops Track Customers and Employees
There are times when I wander around some non-political sites just to see if I can find anything interesting to use here. Most of the time, actually the vast majority of the time, it’s a resounding “No!”.
The Transgender Policy JBAB Hunt: This Time, It’s Milford
Someone asked me to look into this a bit ago – another School District believing it could override the US and NH Constitution and numerous court decisions. It’s the same problem I fought for over two years and finally won in having my School Board.
The City of Nashua Gives Us Cause to Distrust Government
Finally, the Union Leader appears to have returned to what it used to do: champion the Individual over the Government (with its Leftward bent lately, it has been taking the side of the Government).
Burgess Biopower: Upon Which I Wag a Finger at Kevin Avard and a Thanks to Chris Sununu
One of the ‘Grok mantras: Spank’em when they’re wrong and thank’em when they’re right. Generally, it’s Kevin getting the latter and Sununu the former. However, after years of elected representatives doing the Hidden Tax Tango and sending our monies to ‘burn” in the Burgess Biopower plant (whichuses low-grade wood to fuel its boilers to generate electricity), three things are clear.
If Biden Gets That Lockdown Fever Will “Shutdown Sununu” Go Along With It Again?
I got this from someone that has provided me with reliable information. Yes, he’s a firehose of an emailer, but his missives generally check out, so even though this is coming from InfoWars, I’m going to go with it.
