Well, this should be entertaining! For the first time ever, GraniteGrok is receiving requests to come to speak at various groups around NH. To my surprise, given that we “spank’em” as well as “thank’em”, a number have been and will be, local GOP meetings. Steve has spoken at a few lately and we also have … Read more
It sure does hurt when the Progressive premise is proven to be rather shoddy, doesn’t it? Let this be the lesson to us all: don’t let Progressives get away with imprecise vocabulary and sentence structure. Take those away from them and there isn’t much left for the Left to mutter about, eh? Like this: (H/T: … Read more
Merrimack voters take note – this is how your elected Democrat representatives really think of you! When I read Grokster Ed’s post on NH State Rep Wendy Thomas (D-Merrimack)‘s tweets on the Trump Rally, I wasn’t really surprised at most of them. She a far Left Progressive; expected from her. But one of her pics … Read more
UPDATED and BUMPED: Seems to be standard fare – Trump makes a claim, his critics say he’s wrong, then he’s proved right. You’d think the critics would learn that he’s playing them but Stupidity reigns supreme! Check this out: Sorry Elton John, your record’s not still standing: Fire marshal says Donald Trump’s boast that he … Read more
Yeah, why am I not surprised – not the brightest idea when it first came out. Doing roads is hard. Roads HAVE to be hard. Solar cells are not hard. Doubt me? Reformatted, emphasis mine: Three Years Later, the French Solar Road Is a Total Flop Three years later, even the most optimistic supporters have … Read more
One thing sticks out at me at events like this – I keep wondering why they even bother to put up TOFUS (Teleprompter of the United States)? I’ve watched him when he gives a “measured” speech (for him, that is) and you can tell that his vocabulary and sentence structure are FAR different than what … Read more
And on the top of the 90 minutes (plus a tad) speech that President Trump gave on this past Thursday night at SNHU Arena! Two more 10 minute (or so) segments below: Part 6: Part 7:
And we get to the middle of the Manchester based SNHU Arena address by President Trump. And if you were wondering where in the speech it was, President Trump, as he was acknowledging all of the Republican political dignitaries to his left in the ramp area, near the end of Part 5 is where he … Read more
Continuing on with President Trump’s speech at the SNHU Arena to a massive crowd that had been waiting for hours for him to come out to talk to them, here is the next set of video clips: Part 2: Part 3:
Sorry this is up late but I’ve had to redo a few video clips due to the copyright issue stemming from the sound company playing copyrighted materials and we got caught in the middle. Anyways, after HOURS after us first being let into Arena, President Trump finally came in and addressed the crowd to great … Read more
UPDATED and BUMPED: the dispute is still in process but now *I* can play the video but only on YouTube. Here’s from the “plain URL” (“https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Na0dc3m9onU”) and not the usual embed codes I use – Readers, please let me know if you can watch it as well. *************************** Groksters Kimberly and Steve have already put … Read more
We are live streaming from the SNHU Arena in Manchester. The main program will be starting shortly. And yes, people are still filing in…
Thanks to Erin Perrine, Trump 2020 Deputy Communications Director, my media credentials snafu was straightened out by the time I go up this morning (Groksters Steve and Kimberly are all set). Got here early, did some “man in the street” interviews, and now trying to be ready with the camera. At the least, I’ll be … Read more
UPDATE: Becky relayed they will have left NH by the 28th – have asked for other dates/times
Earlier today, Becky Cotterill from the British news folks at SkyNet (counterpart to Fox news but in their DC-based bureau; no longer part of Fox as they were bought by Comcast) contacted me to do a quick interview. The topic? President Trump is coming to New Hampshire on Thursday.
Yep, Andru Volinsky. The guy that removed local control of Education via the Claremont decision. School boards and citizens rail that the State puts too many mandates on them (like HB142 – I’m still hoping some lawyer will make me a plaintiff in a lawsuit against it) – blame current Exec. Councilor Volinsky who is … Read more
Tagging onto Susan’s post about the Democrats dancing on the bloody shirt of the victims of what seems to have been by Leftist shooters; they’ll be at it again during the Trump rally. Yes, I’m on their email list so I get all of those sordid tales of victimology and Collectivist wailings. Collectivists – and … Read more
This past Saturday, GraniteGrok was invited to the home of NH State House Rep. Jesse Edwards for his 7th Annual Tailgate Party. Originally a “pre-college football season tailgate practice” party, it has morphed into more than just sports. A lot more.
Sometimes when high stakes things happen, things AREN’T always quite written as it should be. Thus, I smiled when I saw this tweet: .@GovChrisSununu vetoes all three gun control bills not addressing specifics of any says laws now "well-crafted" and NH 2nd Amendment stronger than in U.S. Constitution. #nhpolitics — Kevin Landrigan (@KlandriganUL) August 9, … Read more
Three Democrat-sponsored gun-grabbing bills in New Hampshire are toast. So, no. Granite Staters’ Constitutional Rights are not going”to be infringed.”
