Ward Clark, writing at Red State, reminds us that “The primary purpose of government is to protect the liberty and property of the citizens.” If you asked 100 randos on any American street corner how many would even come close to that? Depends on the street corner, I suppose, but the closer you get to … Read more
The Commies in Burlington, Vermont, have been trying to ban guns for years, and so we’re clear, I mean, guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens. Criminals will still carry, and that’s the truth, but this is Burlington, where the truth is what they say it is, and the excuse they came up with to … Read more

You’re always going to run into deadbeats, no matter what you do, and one way we generate revenue around here (and thus attract the potential for more of them) is by publishing sponsored content for a small fee. A post about something with backlinks which the agency or freelancer pays GraniteGrok to publish. If you … Read more
It’s not huge news but following recent content on a potential shift away from four-year schools toward trades and other learning investments, it adds some weight to the argument. What argument? The progressive university laundromat is falling on tough times. Exchanging massive debt for a useless degree and no real-world skills is losing its appeal. … Read more
Democrats thought DOGE was a threat to the System? It was and still is. It didn’t go anywhere. The same tech is in use for other means, and that probably includes the new anti-fraud initiative ordered by Trump and led by JD Vance. The NGO fraud was bad, and there’s plenty more of that. ACT … Read more
You might be able to pass it off as another example of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Or the progressive knee-jerk reaction that requires them to want the opposite of anything and everything the Trump Administration promotes. Pregnant women should be careful with Tylenol, as it might affect their unborn baby. That’s them, so when Secretary Kennedy … Read more
How you feel is not science, but the proglodytes are masters of weaponizing feels. They can convince any number of folks to ignore reality in exchange for acting almost entirely on emotion. It’s brainwashing en masse. The PsyOp. Mass hypnosis. There is a science to understanding how and why people are consumed by their feelings, … Read more

I invite my readers to purchase my new book, The Coming Food Crisis: How Corporations, Activists, and Climate Alarmists Are Waging War on Farmers. The book describes the steadily increasing consolidation of farming and food production into the market-controlling hands of the largest corporations in the world, and the threats to human health and liberties this presents. … Read more
Amsterdam has one of the highest crime rates in the Netherlands despite legalizing prostitution and some drugs. Those are not crimes anymore. Take them off the docket, and it’s still 90 incidents per 1000 residents. Crime per capita averages across Europe range from 45-65/1000. For contrast, America’s most crime-riddled cities, like Memphis, Detroit, and Baltimore, … Read more
Democrats don’t hate the police, and they love surveillance. Their dystopian socialist utopia is impossible without both. They don’t hate guns either, just guns that might interfere with their militarized police state. So, the whole defund the police thing was a smoke screen. It wasn’t about bad cops or systemic racism; it was an excuse … Read more

I have not been shy about how hypocritical mail-order abortion pills appear to me. I’m old enough to remember the coat hanger in a back-alley argument made by the baby-killing party. I don’t think anyone ever tried it, and if they did, it was only because Democrats suggested it. Many decades of lying about abortion … Read more
Given the opportunity, a Proglodyte will lie about anything. Take Global warming. Everything is caused by it, relabeled as climate change to ensure the hymns matched the dogma. Heat, cold, rain, drought, sun, shade, storms, quiet, no snow, more snow, everything is the result of their sky god, while yours is just a fake thing … Read more
This week, on GrokTALK!, we look a little deeper into the problem of dirty voter rolls (inspired by my Friday, May 1st, Morning Update) at the issue of ballot chain of custody and how New Hampshire can’t have a clean election even if we want them. 00:00 Introduction and Context of Election Issues in New … Read more
The keep-it-in-the-ground folks are idiots. Yes, they are idiots for falling for the green scam. Stooges to the decarbonization political class who don’t plan on decarbonizing themselves. Victims of a soft-headed idea that oil and gas are a greater threat to life on earth than not having them. They are wrong, and there are tons … Read more
Housing Bubble Architect Barney Frank, a career politician and Democrat who spent 32 years telling us what to do from Congress, has offered up a deathbed declaration. Maybe don’t go so far left. Frank told CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday that his record gives the message weight. “It’s precisely because I have been on the left … Read more

Remember AI “Actress” Tilly Norwood? Her creators were marketing her to talent agencies to book her work. She sings, dances, is cute as a button, and has an English accent. I did a morning update on her and the surrounding outrage, and while I can’t say if she’s gotten any new work, her existence has … Read more
