HB1159 – Hearing for the “Shut the ‘Grok DOWN” bill created by Democrats

BUMPED and UPDATED: The hearing is still set for tomorrow at the time below. The Executive Session (when the Committee will be voting on the bill). Remember, this is retribution for the coverage we’ve been doing the last couple of years, especially on some of the sponsors of the bill.
BUMPED: Again, I’m hoping that as many of the Groksters and our friends will come out to the hearing. It’s a lot to ask – y’all have jobs!

The actual title of the bill is this: “relative to cyberbullying, cyberstalking, and doxxing of a public servant.”

Date: Wednesday, 1/29
Time: 10:45 am
Place: LOB  Room 204 (that’s Legislative Office Building right behind the State House)

Bleg – Presidential Primary: the white Knights will wade into the Liberal Progressive Lair!

BUMPED and UPDATE:  I wanted to take a moment to say “THANK YOU” to all of you who donated to GraniteGrok for this event as exactly $700.  That is enough (plus a bit) to cover our expenses including getting some gear that we’ll need. Once again, our Grok readers are the BEST and we thank you for your loyalty.

GraniteGrok, once again, is turning to you, our loyal readers for a bit of financial help.  You see, Feb 11 is the date for the Presidential Primary here in NH for both the Democrat and Republican Parties. Given that the Republican primary is pretty much a lock, most of the “energy” is on the Progressive Left.

NHGOP Annual Meeting: The Norris Cotton and Mel Thompson Awards

I’m quite sure that every Party has their annual awards given out and in the case of the NH GOP, they are for the volunteers that do the grunt work necessary to make the Party functional. The Norris Cotton awards are given out at the County level – was glad to see that Grokster Chris … Read more

NHGOP Annual Meeting: The Reports

Although not contiguous in time during the meeting, part of the requirement is for the officials (Secretary, Treasurer, the Chair and VChair, et al) to give their reports of what has happened this past year.

NHGOP Annual Meeting: Intro ceremonies and remarks

Yesterday was the 2020 Annual NH GOP Annual Meeting and certainly GraniteGrok was representing: I was there “in uniform” but Jim Kofault, Norm Silber, and Judy Aron were present.

Tammy Simmons: Steve Duprey PAID a lot to support your House race – vote for him for NH GOP Committeeman

I dunno if this was given a “green light” by someone or if this was just Tammy Simmons (past Chair of the Manchester Republican Committee) shoving this out there in order to “guilt” people into voting for Steve Duprey. Emphasis mine: From: Tammy Simmons <xxxxxxxx@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2020 10:34 AM To: undisclosed-recipients: Subject: … Read more

Recycling – I’ll say it: it’s just Economic Insanity

I’ve been blogging about what has been going on in my home town that just put up the “Scott Dunn monument to Economic Illiteracy” and the Mandatory Recycling mandate in order to make “The Plan” work. You can’t use the new Recycle Center (“RC”), just built for the amount of $1.3 Million dollar, unless YOU … Read more

Honor your oath

Honor your Oaths of office? When you get compared to this….

…it looks like Politicians, as an entire class, are being seen for how they act.  Imagine that!  Compared to Criminals who break laws. Actually, in a lot of cases, that sign is apt. We see elected officials all the time, on both sides of the aisle here in NH, break not only their actual oaths … Read more

Jack Wilson: “I killed evil. I took out evil.”

Jack Wilson was the man that stood up when the murderer in his church killed two of the parishioners. Jack stopped him with one shot to the head. A Sheepdog, a hero. He, and the others that were armed that Sunday morning, were willing to lay down their lives to protect their flock. Yes, their flock.
