February 10, 2023 Skip

Part 1 is here. This past Wednesday night at St. Anselm’s Institute of Politics, Vivek Ramaswamy gave an address to a packed (actually, “standing room”) crowd.

Skip’s Sauntering Snippets – Twitter (and NH Democrat Party Chair Ray Buckley)

February 10, 2023February 9, 2023 Skip

I’ll go find his tweets but now that the DNC has made their final ruling, Ray Buckley will forever be known as the Chair that lost the First In the Nation Primary for NH Democrats. Go Ray!

February 9, 2023 Ed Mosca

Sun-King Sununu’s unofficial publicist … NH-NeverTrump Journal’s Mikey Graham … is “reporting” on Sun-King’s new 501(c)(4) … “Live Free or Die”.

What’s News?

February 9, 2023 Steve Earle

Does anyone who still has a grasp on their mind still reads the Laconia Daily Sun? Well, mostly I just read the Letters to the Editor. Yea I know, everyone’s entitled to an opinion but as the saying goes, “not to their own facts”. What has been burning my biscuits lately is that the so … Read more

May 21, 2023February 9, 2023 Steve MacDonald

The Climate Cult won’t like this news much. NOAA recently updated its Tide Gauge data. What post-ice age rise in sea level there is, continues at a mere few millimeters per year. There is no evidence of the tipping point acceleration nonsense peddled by the Planeteers.

Survival Sunday – Thursday SITREP Edition

February 9, 2023February 9, 2023 NITZAKHON

Forewarned is forearmed. Thus, this is intended to be a compilation of articles, with my commentary, to try and get like-minded people to grasp what’s coming.

February 9, 2023 Steve MacDonald

Blogline of the Day – And It Is Your Government That Is the Oppressor. How Can It Not Be?

February 8, 2023 Skip

I was looking through our archives for mentions of the Frankfurt School, and Antonio Gramsci for my “Disney’s REALLY gone Woke” post, and this popped up from 2016. While not directly in line, it does approach in a similar fashion because it REQUIRES Government to carry out the action.

How Dangerous Are Article V Constitutional Conventions …

February 8, 2023 Op-Ed

Many readers of Granite Grok agree with me, a 54-year member of The John Birch Society, and lots of you will not. But, no matter what your opinion is concerning those who advocate fixing all the federal government’s usurpation of power, you need to hear the “rest of the story.”
