GraniteGrok: Conservative? Check! ‘Grok: TEA Party? Check! Bill O’Brien supporters? Check! Mark Hounsell seeking out the ‘Grok as a platform? Hypocrite!

Mark HounsellDuring the Womens’ Defense League of NH‘s annual Gun Rally, Mark Housell ( now FORMER candidate for US Congress in NH’s CD-1) actively sought me out (not hard to miss – ‘Grok hat on, camera in tow) almost as soon as a “late arrived) to have me do an interview.  We tried to do it right then but the volume of the PA system was too loud so he waited until after the event had concluded – which took quite some time.  Then he waited as I interviewed several other people first so it was clear that he craved the publicity this Conservative, TEA Party, Bill O’Brien, multiple AFP award winning site could provide him.  Yet, this is what he told the Laconia Daily Sun as he exited the race (reformatted, emphasis mine:

Hounsell did say that those pushing a liberal agenda are making “blatant and unabashed attempts to buy New Hampshire’s 1st Congressional District with out-of-state money,” while the state’s Republican party “is hog-tied by right-wing extremists passing as conservatives.”

Hounsell disagreed with the “big tent” analogy [of NH GOP Forrester’s big tent analogy -Skip]. “The people who are in that big tent are doing all they can to change it from a big tent to a pup tent,” he said, naming Bill O’Brien and Americans for Prosperity. “If you don’t pass their so-called purity test, you’re not really part of it. I don’t fit their definition of what a conservative is; that is, neo-con, Tea [sic] Party.

Ideologies do not belong in schools (Part 2)

By Ken Eyring

WSD-LogoThere’s a lot going on in our schools. Not all is good.

We have blindly entrusted the education of our children and their malleable, impressionable minds to our public education system. Upon doing so, we expect our children will be provided with an education that is free from ideologies. But that is not always the case, as we saw when the Windham School District joined the organized national protest against the 2nd Amendment on March 14th. I wrote about it last week.

The district stated the protest was “led by students”, but it was actually organized by Women’s March. When our district administration sanctioned the event, our children were not only used as political pawns… they were also introduced to the Womens March organization and a plethora of their other radical ideologies. The group indoctrinates children to be community organizers to advance their radical agendas. This type of indoctrination has long term consequences – and does not belong in our schools. For instance… look at this link; it displays a webpage titled “HOW WE RESIST a discussion series”. The topic for March 24th was “CONFRONTING WHITE SUPREMACY”. I’m disturbed that did not trigger any concerns from the Windham School District Administration.

This is the same Administration that required parents to

It was written for a reason and it ain’t for plinking or hunting

Yep, this should scare us all now that Progressives are openly saying this (and Milquetoast Republicans going along with their other tactic of “Death by a 1,000 cuts”) as in “Politics is all about compromising”). There should be no compromise at all by those of us that believe in what the original text of the … Read more

A “Shooting” You Won’t Hear Much About From The Main Stream Media

youtube-logo-full_colorSomeone shot three people on the YouTube Corporate Campus this past week, and you should not be surprised if you knew nothing about it.

The perp is (or was) a female Iranian immigrant (refugee) vegan, animal-rights activist angered by being under-monetized, demonetized, and just plain-old marginalized by the video “sharing” behemoth.

Her name is Nasim Aghdam.

What kind of name is that for a psychologically disturbed white-loner NRA gun-nut?

The Totalitarian impulse did not die with the Soviet Union

Antifa- we will tread

I think that the entirety of the modern American Left’s agenda can be summarized in the words of Theodore Dalrymple, who notes,

The totalitarian impulse did not die with the Soviet Union, but rather fractured into many different monomanias. The freedom that many people desire is the freedom to limit other people’s freedom, which they find much more gratifying than the mere expression of their own opinion, which has at most the effect of throwing a pebble into a pond, causing a ripple that soon disappears and is forgotten. Surely I am more important than that, and my opinion deserves to dictate to others?

Notable Quote – David Cole

David Hogg 1“The bullies never go after people they can’t break, because to do so would make them look weak and impotent.”

On the outlook and actions of the Left:

But in the real world, there are times when one simply should not beg. And you’ll know those times by the character of your foe. If you’re up against the kind of monster who derives pleasure from hearing people plead for mercy, that’s when you cannot, must not, beg.

Today’s social justice leftists operate very much like that fictional serial killer. Their intended victims are people, sometimes in the public eye, sometimes average folks, who have written or said things that leftists find offensive. And if they mark you as an enemy, they will use every tool in their arsenal to destroy your life. If you have a job, they’ll try to get you fired. If you have a reputation, they’ll try to tarnish it. If you have a business venture, they’ll try to bankrupt it. If you have an online presence, they’ll try to get you banned from all platforms.

And certainly we (collectively and in some cases, individually) at the ‘Grok over the years have been subjected to this virtual “killing” simply for one and only one reason: we simply speak our minds and the Left hates it and looks for any opportunity for “a silencing”.

Will EPA End California “Tax” on Everyone Else’s Automobiles?

Green Car

For years California’s higher mileage requirements for passenger vehicles have forced manufacturers to offset those costs with higher prices for car buyers all across the nation. But the EPA is dumping Obama CAFE standards for model years 2022-2025 defaulting to the current average of 34.5 mpg.

A legal fight is expected from CAFE-Clingers and Brownistas in Kalinfornistan.

New Hampshire Young Democrats Phone Bank to Protect Voter Fraud

NH Young Democrats Stealing Votes

The New Hampshire Young Democrats Facebook page has a status update seeking help to make phone calls to stop HB1264. They mean to prevent efforts that could stop “out of state students” “from voting in New Hampshire.”

These are the same Young Democrats who will not phone bank to end the injustice of high-priced out-of-state tuition rules which directly contradict their justification for letting those non-resident students vote here in the first place.

Let’s dig into that contradiction, shall we?
