When RFKJ fired the entire ACIP panel, all 17 so-called independent “experts,” the Left lost its mind. When RFKJ replaced them with different experts (the wrong kind), the hive mind didn’t like that either; they lost some more (what little they had to spare), found some lawyers, sued, and got a judge to say RFKJ … Read more
The Josiah Bartlett Center for Public Policy has been kind enough to allow us to share its content for more than a decade when it interests us. We may not always agree, but that is not a barrier to sharing it. The point is to debate and to occasionally bend conservatarian light to shine on … Read more
Once Again Progressives Deliver The Opposite of What They Advertise
Thanks to Dan McGuire for the heads up. The Brave Browser problem has corrected itself. Brave users will no longer get caught in a Cloudflare doom loop that ends with a Wordfence 404 (too many page-not-found errors for a human) block. We’ve been working both sides of this off and on for over two months. … Read more

A bill is working its way through the New Hampshire legislature that would limit the flags and banners flown in the state’s public and charter schools. Summary. House Bill 1132 will prohibit the display of certain flags and banners in public schools and public charter schools, and establish penalties for their display. A fine of … Read more
I am skeptical when, given the current political climate and recent history, anything calling itself a safe space where both sides can find common ground pops up from the trenches. Political operatives like to craft them to persuade otherwise well-meaning moderates to the left and to give progressives who join cover. Oh, look, so-and-so is … Read more
Ray wrote a post earlier that mentioned the not-so-honorable “chief” high-cheekbones Warren. She’s your typical nutjob Dem who will be in the Senate until she dies of old age. Being an AWFL with TDS ensures she will outlive almost everyone else, so we’re stuck with her and her priorities. I have the privilege of living … Read more

The term “mobile home” has a negative connotation. White trash Appalachian hillbilly crossed with white trash Oklahoma twister bait. I lived in one briefly and rented a room in another that was nicer than some homes I’ve been in. The latter is decidedly not mobile, while the former could have been moved. We owned the … Read more
You may know Daniel Richard as a ‘Grok author who has been using the system to fight the system for four years. He became something of a Constitutional scholar in the process, as well as gathering a keen understanding of how State Government does and doesn’t work. It is a question of Election Integrity. Following … Read more
Eric Swallwell is a partisan douchebag. I don’t even need to produce receipts for anyone who pays the slightest bit of attention. Whatever hyperbolic left-wing bullshit is on the menu, he is one of the first ones out of the kitchen to serve it. But that’s not why people who hold care even know who … Read more
I want to say I saw the first X post on this Friday night, and sure, news breaks on X all the time, but it is usually linked to something you can actually put your virtual hands on. President Trump, hospitalized in serious condition, began propagating across the platform. I ignored it after a quick … Read more
I am happy to announce what I hope is an incentive to support independent media and GraniteGrok.com. Free stuff. Our first foray into this something-for-something landscape is an 18-page E-Book called ‘Democrats Destroy Everything They Touch.’ It is a primer, using a handful of my past essays sorted and formatted for easy reading, that reminds … Read more

I’d like to say this is not the exception and more the norm, but we know it’s not, and not just from schools. Cities like Nashua exist to use government resources and waste taxpayers’ dollars to defend their partisan personal interests. Governmental bodies, flush with other people’s cash, bonded staff, and large insurance policies, especially … Read more
Whether you like it or not, solar, as a scaled-up alternative to other forms of commercial energy production, is a huge risk. It’s expensive, intermittent (unreliable), has a significant front and back-end carbon footprint, has a highly toxic manufacturing process, a sketchy and toxic end of life question mark (how, who, cost, disposal, de-manufacturing, danger … Read more
You can’t escape death, but avoiding taxes is something human beings do instinctively, especially those who insist that paying them is some sort of patriotic duty. Personally, I go to great lengths to ensure that I have reported all my income. Not doing this makes you a natural target for certain political factions who are … Read more
If you’ve not been following the situation in the Kensingston/East Kingston School District, you can get caught up here, but it involves schools, so the problem is one with which you are likely familiar. It is something and a microcosm of the problem with public education. Spending and cost per student are climbing to or … Read more
President Trump stopped by the US Supreme Court to listen to oral arguments on the birthright citizenship case. The only President ever, I think, to do that. Power tie, listening. He is later reported to have said, “We are the only Country in the World STUPID enough to allow ‘Birthright’ Citizenship!” I’m thinking, maybe the … Read more
