As long term readers know, I’ve been doing posts like this for years. I’m also not shedding a tear over the current state of “the Press” in the US as they’ve brought it upon themselves by picking sides in the Culture/Media War.

Update on John Irish – And We’re Still Looking for a MA Based Lawyer
First, thanks to all of you who responded with tips to send to John’s long-time girlfriend, either by calling me, leaving comments on the posts, or sending me emails. I have forwarded each one.
Rescheduled – the Piccola Opera’s “A Dickens Celebration” for tonight
Unlike Marilyn Todd who decided not to tell GraniteGrok that her Voter Integrity Project event had been changed, Jane Cormier let us know that her event for tonite has been canceled (because of the snowstorm) but now has a new date:
Promoted from the Comments: Medicine Used to Be for Helping People Live – Not Die
We are still looking for legal help to get our ‘Grok friend, John Irish, moved from Lowell General Hospital in MA to Mass General. The former seems to have gotten stuck “on protocols” that sound like Einstein’s admonition of what is insanity.
Palate Cleanser – Exploding Glitter Bomb V 4.0
This has become an annual thing with me – Mark Rober’s revenge on porch poachers. You know, those folks that decide that what’s yours is really theirs and grab your just delivered stuff from your property and then, with happy eyes, take it home. Then they make the mistake of taking full possession of your stuff by opening up the box.
Help Needed – John Irish
I consider John Irish a personal friend as GraniteGrok is asking for assistance in helping him – a lawyer who is a member of the MA Bar and licensed to practice in Massachusetts.
Friday Open Thread – Sucks Getting Old
Whether or not we like getting old, we all are. But, in this day and age, am I not allowed to still think I’m in my 40s (no, not greed to hope for 30s or 20s – 40s are still fine)?
Americans for Prosperity Scorecard and Award Winners!
AFP-NH just had their event where they announced Legislative Scorecard their winners of their:
- Freedom Fighter award
- Tom Thomson Defender of Liberty award
AFT Lawsuit Can’t Even Name GraniteGrok – “Merely A New Hampshire Rightwing Group”?
I decided to read the complaint filed against the New Hampshire Dept of Education. It references Commissioner Frank Edleblut, NH Commission on Human Rights Christian Kim, and NH AG John Fomella. All because the AFT (NH Chapter), a couple of teachers, and a couple of parents aren’t happy.
Notable Quote – Environmentalism is Fascist Right From the Get-Go.
Ultimately, however, environmentalism is fascistic not because of its airy and obscure metaphysical assumptions about the existential plight of man. Rather, its most tangible fascistic ingredient is that it is an invaluable “crisis mechanism.”
COVID Nazis Want to Rule Our Lives So Bad, That *I* Had to Defend the School Board I’m Suing????
Sheesh. Week ago Monday was the Gilford School Board meeting where they were going to revisit Masking on a District basis given the rise of infection in our local area. Both sides were well represented – certainly, I was on the side that it is the PARENTS’ decision even if the kids are “in the care” of the school system while on school grounds.
How to Blow an Anti-Christmas-Anti-Religionists Mind This “Holiday” Season …
There are a ton of liberal, Progressive, Secularists out there that just HATE the idea of being wished a “Merry Christmas.” Certainly, one of them is being reminded that there are also a ton of Christians out there that truly celebrate the season for more than the whole consumer-based Santa Claus, presents, lights part.
Right to Know Roadblock: Town Wants Me To Pay To Recover Emails I Requested That They Never Should have Deleted
In my ongoing effort to get the Brentwood Selectmen’s emails, it seems that Karen Clement, the town’s Administrator, is trying to lay down some speedbumps by making it more difficult than necessary. The question is, why is this?
“Mindless and Mortifying Covid Theater”
All of you here know that I frequent Cafe Hayek. This time, one of the proprietors, Prof. Don Boudreaux (and principle writer), has a marvelous rant after visiting Strathmore (??) to point out the idiocy of the Ruling Classes on The Jab and the Mask and asks the question “why are you really doing this?”
NH GOP/RNC: Politics Over Your Rulebook? The Joe Kenney Edition
One of our mantras is “Thank’em when they do right and spank’em when they do wrong so, step right up, (my) District 1 Executive Councilor Joe Kenney. And no, this isn’t a thank you letter so you only have one choice left as to why I’m writing this.
Did Maggie Hassan Say The Right Thing for the Wrong Reason?
I’m on lots of Democrat email lists in various ways. Maggie “The Red” Hassan is no different. So this caught my eye: “$1 today is worth more than $1 next year.”
DeSantis has a SPLENDID Idea! Let them Have Their Fair Share … of Illegal Immigrants
Every time that the Democrats “open” our Southern Border, no matter who the current Democrat Administration, they ship them from “there” to “somewhere else” and it always seems to be in the Red States.
Call To Action: Second Amendment Bills and Some Republican State Senators Need Some “Nudging” for Tuesday
I got an email from a friend of mine reminding me that there are a few Second Amendment bills that are coming up on Tuesday for “Executive Session” (meaning the Committee will vote them Ought to Pass or Inexpedient to Legislate (send to the whole House or kill it now). They’ve been sitting on the … Read more
NH GOP/RNC: Politics Over Your Rulebook?
I just got this from the new RNC / NH GOP representative for Belknap / Strafford Counties Director as they gear up for the 2022 elections I said that I would put this one up (emphasis mine):
Another DGU Happy Ending – NH State Rep Katherine Rogers Must Have Had A Cow
DGU – Defensive Gun Use. It’s a phrase that the Civilian Disarmament mob hates to hear. A lawful person with a gun stopping a bad guy harshes their Narrative.
