Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom and how the Government is taking that away. As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
US Constitution shredded

Quick Thought -Let me see if I have this straight…

So where is “infrastructure” enumerated in the US Constitution?  In case you are wondering: US Constitution, Article 1, Section 8 (Powers of Congress) The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United … Read more

Who ever thought that MSNBC would make the case for the Second Amendment?

And I’m betting that, at the time, the uber-Progressive Democrats with by-lines would be confirming what we Conservatives have been saying for decades – that the Second Amendment was written certainly not for hunting and not just self-defense but in the time when a government becomes tyrannical and totalitarian:  And never, EVAH believe the … Read more

media bias

Notable Quote -Joel Kotkin

It’s far too early to predict which party will win next year’s election, but not too early to announce the national media as a clear loser in terms of national influence and prestige. Pew reports that millennials have become as negative about major media as older generations, with their rate of approval dropping from 40% … Read more

California’s power company has a WONDERFUL idea of how to stop wildfires!

(Image H/T: Time.com) Especially those that its powerlines start, like those that turned out to kill innocents.  To save lives by fire, P&G may cause even more from stopping its product: PG&E’s Radical Plan to Prevent Wildfires: Shut Down the Power Grid. “When dangerously high winds arise this year, the utility says it will black out … Read more

Let’s start with his Secretary of Energy, Dr Steven Chu. From our friends at the National Taxpayers Union: Somehow we have to figure out how to boost … Read more

“Steven Crowder: ‘My YouTube channel could be gone in ten days”

Given that our Twitter account has been locked since the beginning of April (because I REFUSE to remove Steve’s tweet pointing to this post – New Zealand advances Weapons ban on a vote of 119-1), I can sympathize with / for Steve (aka “Louder with Crowder”). The problem is that I don’t make a living … Read more

Kirsten Gillibrand

Blogline of the Day – really, who knew??

…Kirsten Gillibrand’s fundraising has been so anemic that she may not be able to participate in the party’s presidential debates — unlike Andrew Yang and Tulsi Gabbard, who already have made the cut. It turns out that, at least in a crowded field, being stupid and unprincipled can be a handicap for a Democrat.  Who knew? … Read more

NH Constitution

Final and Part 6 – Testimony on behalf of HB564 – relative to possession of firearms in safe school zones

This is the last in the series: ********************** Conclusion: I have two last quotes and unfortunately, from your own actions, which I believe, summarizes the NH Democrat Party’s view of the Second Amendment State Senator Mary Ann Carlson (D-VT): “We must be able to arrest people before they commit crimes. By registering guns and knowing … Read more

Part 5 – Testimony on behalf of HB564 – relative to possession of firearms in safe school zones

Continuing on from Part 4 here: Jerry Nadler (D-NY): Setup: former assistant U.S. attorney and self described conservative constitutionalist Andrew McCarthy argued during his testimony: “principal purpose of the Constitution is to limit the power of government to intrude on the liberties and suppress the rights of the American people.” Jerry Nadler (D-NY): make that … Read more

Quotes

Notable Quote – Tyler Cowan

The danger, of course, is that competition for consumers will be replaced by competition for political pull. There are thousands of instances of companies lobbying for tariffs, price supports, subsidies, and restrictions on their competition, all for their own self-interest and profits of course. When such lobbying is successful, capitalism becomes about sucking up to … Read more

“The Day, Collusion died”

But will it actually die?  Collusion was just the on-ramp – the Dems are already changing their failed Narrative knowing that the media will “conveniently” forget what was the topic du jour for the last two years and roll with the Progressive….well, what ever it turns out to be.

Data Point – US Air is getting better and better

“Economic Growth with Cleaner Air Between 1970 and 2016, the combined emissions of the six common pollutants (PM2.5 and PM10, SO2, NOx, VOCs, CO and Pb) dropped by 73 percent. This progress occurred while the U.S. economy continued to grow, Americans drove more miles and population and energy use increased.” That chart didn’t show up all … Read more

“Democrats: let terrorists vote”

So let me see if I get this straight – a law abiding citizen who has been improperly put on the “do not fly” list and now is a “suspected terrorist” gets stripped of a Constitutional Right (Second Amendment Rights for a rather (almost indeterminate) time) but the Democrats are in favor of an ACTUAL … Read more

Border Wall

Is Mexico finally “paying for The Wall”?

Steve beat me (“Mexico Just Busted Up A Caravan – Hundreds Arrested“) in putting up the news that the Central American “caravans” may be near the end of their political lifespans. We’ve been writing about these for a while now as we at GraniteGrok do see them as a slow rolling existential threat given the … Read more

All the Democrat Prez Wannabees: “I WILL GIVE YOU FREE STUFF!!!”

Americans, especially the young’uns, that favor socialism, really will get cheesed when it turns around and bites THEM. However, by that time, it will be too late. After all, how long did the Soviet Union and the Iron Curtain last once it started. True, too, is Cuba and China… Is it the case that clouds … Read more
