Yesterday, New York gun control organization Everytown for Gun Safety, another failed organization run by billionaire gun control addict Michael Bloomberg, ran a full page ad in the Union Leader. The deception in the ad is par for the course for this organization but what’s even more disturbing is that they’ve actually hired 11 lobbyists in the state of New Hampshire to fight against grassroots organizations and the citizens of the state.
“This guy is a Fraud,” said Bernie Sanders Sunday to CNN’s State of the Union. Bernie Sanders…The advocate for the working man! Um…exactly, “what,” working man?
It makes no difference what the context of his fraud accusation is. Bernie Slanders should be the last guy on earth to call anybody a fraud for any reason.
I ask that sincerely because Sanders a/k/a “Slanders,” said Donald Trump is a fraud and Sanders has never worked an honest day in his life. His bio claims the carpentry trade but he was all over the map in vocational inventory. American People’s Historical Society, a non-profit that produced leftist progressive filmstrips, created in 1978, was not a bastion of jobs and economic prosperity. Sanders finally collected his first steady paycheck at the age of 40! He was now an elected official! Bernie Sanders won an election as a bum.
After the biggest comeback in Superbowl history will Patriots haters have to concede that Brady is the Greatest Quarterback ever? (Yes the NFL keeps blocking the highlights. Looking for a copy to share. Until then, go here.
I watch and read and listen and am amused. People who previous to the nomination and election of Mr. Trump had never been permitted to see behind the media curtain are getting glimpses at the real left. They are angry, violent, hateful.
“Innocent” bystanders are overwhelmed by the vitriol in social media and on the ground. What they may not understand or refuse to accept is that it has always been there. They’ve always been like that. If you do not cross to their side of the aisle (no one goes the other way and lives to tell the tale), say and believe the things they want you to, they hate you.
Kurt Schlichter at Townhall.com has a great piece to welcome you to the real world.
Yesterday there was a full page ad in New Hampshire’s Union Leader, paid for by New York gun control organization Everytown for Gun Safety. The gun safety part is emphasized because these people aren’t for gun safety at all, they are for gun bans and gun control. This is an organization run by New York City billionaire Michael Bloomberg, who has armed security for his own family yet works to take away the rights of the “regular people” from protecting their families. Bloomberg uses a few women from New Hampshire who claim to be for “human rights” to push an out-of-state man’s will on Granite Staters to take rights away from all people in the state, especially women.
When was the last time you saw a politician keep their…
(H/T: Powerline)
…promises – and this quickly? I thought the Obama Administration moved quickly when they first started – my head kept spinning and for the first time since we started GraniteGrok, I could not keep up. And then I heard about the DensePack theory and it was being done to us on all KINDS of issues – of which very few were talked about during the Democrat Prez Primary or general election campaign. It was like MetalStorm.
My answer is NO.
…Some buy into the narratives proffered by Trump; others are already calling themselves the resistance to our new fair-haired, orange president. Political factions are giving a new perverse meaning to the phrase, “seek, and ye shall find.”
It’s sickening. Despite the freedom to believe and say what they wish, millions of people are taking their cues based on what the new leader says and does, as though the only question worth asking today is, “how should the power of the U.S. government be administered?” If only they asked themselves, “should this power exist in the first place?”

It parallels mine of “What is the Proper Role of Government?”. If Government exists, per our Declaration of Independence says:
Great line from a post that RedState re-posted: These amendments would underscore that the federal government is one of limited and enumerated powers, and that those powers are islands in a sea of rights — rather than rights being islands in a sea of generalized federal power. We who are Liberty minded believe that it … Read more
SHOT: [Democrat Operative] Stephanopoulos to Pence: ‘Is It Appropriate’ for Trump to Attack Legitimacy of Judge Who Blocked Travel Ban? In response to the temporary block on his travel ban, Trump has been blasting Seattle District Judge James Robart while referring to him as a “so-called judge.” George Stephanopoulos spoke to Pence about this, asking … Read more
Reverse racism is always the best kind of racism because it is payback for years of oppression – right? I mean, you must have a goal if you want “equality” and maybe that goal should be more like social justice.
And just in case you don’t remember what social justice is, I have a refresher:
“Social justice” is “justice” in terms of the distribution of wealth, opportunities, and privileges within a society.” Classically, “justice” (especially corrective justice or distributive justice) ensured that individuals both fulfilled their societal roles and received what was their due from society.”
Then along comes a guy of Dominican descent.
Dr. John Bates spent 40 years in meteorology and climate science, many of those years working for NOAA. In 2014, according to the UK Daily Mail, Barack Obama awarded Bates a medal for “setting new, supposedly binding standards ‘to produce and preserve climate data records’.”
A deliberate lie by omission, IMHO. Here in NH, SB 12 (e.g., “Constitutional Carry”) is an anti-discriminatory law that would allow LAW ABIDING citizens, to lawfully conceal a firearm without the obligatory “Nanny Government, may I?”. Eleven States already have this in place – they TRUST their LAW ABIDING citizens to be responsible. Vermont does, Maine now does – and none of those states have “rivers of blood” that the Statists have screamed and cried about over the years. Heck, Vermont has been one of the safest States in the nation with its Constitutional Carry for, well, forever.
But there are those that have the mindset that ONLY Government can make the right decisions and that the current discriminatory law (enacted back in the 1930s to intentionally keep women, immigrants, and minorities from having firearms). Like Zandra Rice-Hawkins (or as we affectionately call her, Zandra Rice-Crispies – you know, a shell on the outside and hollow on the inside) of Granite State Progress (the hard Progressive / Socialist group funded by out-of-state millionaires). So, we KNOW she discriminates against her own gender (re: “God made men, but Sam Colt made them equal”) with this:
“New Hampshire is opening the door to allow dangerous individuals with a track record of violence to legally carry hidden, loaded weapons,” said Zandra Rice Hawkins, executive director of Granite State Progress.
Really, Zandra? You have to stoop this low in lying to make a point.
That’s a whole lotta college loans!!
Listed below are the names of the 230 arrested rioters and such who attended the Inauguration in DC. It is entirely possible that liberal courts will make it very hard to convict them. But that is beside the point. Mom and Dad will pay the fines, hire lawyers, and clean up the mess.
But from now on the snowflakes are part of the world-wide web as being complete a-holes. He next time they step in it, boom, down comes much-deserved ridicule and exposure.
The masks are off millennials. And so begins your paper trail.
A left-wing, activist judge has decided, based on no evidence, only feelings, that he will determine who enters this country – not the person with the authority to do so – President Trump. The activist liberal judge gets a twofer out of this. He accomplishes his political aim of flooding America with un-vetted foreigners eager to vote Democrat. And at the same time, he gets a temporary shot in the chops at President Trump. How could he resist?
This is a post-election roll-out of judicial activism we will see by the left until sanity comes back to the judiciary.
Here is what the Trump Administration is looking for.
First, from Scott Adams, who got his MBA from Berkeley.
Speaking of Hitler, I’m ending my support of UC Berkeley, where I got my MBA years ago. I have been a big supporter lately, with both my time and money, but that ends today. I wish them well, but I wouldn’t feel safe or welcome on the campus. A Berkeley professor made that clear to me recently. He seems smart, so I’ll take his word for it.
I’ve decided to side with the Jewish gay immigrant who has an African-American boyfriend, not the hypnotized zombie-boys in black masks who were clubbing people who hold different points of view. I feel that’s reasonable, but I know many will disagree, and possibly try to club me to death if I walk on campus.
Second,
Lifted entirely from Climate Depot – a flashback to a long list of former UN/IPCC “Scientists” who took issue with its methods and climate claims.
Warming fears are the “worst scientific scandal in the history…When people come to know what the truth is, they will feel deceived by science and scientists.” – UN IPCC Japanese Scientist Dr. Kiminori Itoh, an award-winning PhD environmental physical chemist.
“The IPCC has actually become a closed circuit; it doesn’t listen to others. It doesn’t have open minds… I am really amazed that the Nobel Peace Prize has been given on scientifically incorrect conclusions by people who are not geologists.” – Indian geologist Dr. Arun D. Ahluwalia at Punjab University and a board member of the UN-supported International Year of the Planet.
I generally dislike posting an entire post from elsewhere unless I’m doing a fisking but I think the Left that reads the ‘Grok should see this – and then try to explain it away. You see this pretty much every time a country goes full Chavez / Maduro (emphasis mine): From Instapundit.
THE WAGES OF SOCIALISM: Venezuela Is So Broke It Can’t Even Export Oil.
A fleet of rundown Venezuelan oil tankers carrying some 4 million barrels of oil and other fuels is wallowing in the Caribbean Sea. Not because of bad weather, or mechanical problems, but because Venezuela’s state-owned oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela SA, doesn’t have the cash to get them to their final destinations.
Beyond the obvious environmental risks, it’s doubly bad news for Venezuela, a country in dire economic straits and full-fledged crisis, with a political impasse, looting, dangerous food and health supply shortages, and massive protests. Venezuela is massively reliant on oil exports to bankroll government services. But the cash-strapped country can’t even find the money to service the vessels that carry its exports. And Venezuela needs the exports to get the cash to service the vessels. It’s a vicious circle.
It’s a vicious circle made possible by the Venezuelan government, and nothing free markets and private ownership couldn’t fix practically overnight.
I dryly note that their dictionary is missing the word “Irony”, especially when you read this from them:

I’m not sure if I really want to start in on this or just leave it here for your comments. Given that it is from the Left, I invite our loyal Leftist readers to defend it. Seriously – no snark. I just can’t believe, not just the chutzpah but the cluelessness cobbled in at the same time in determining that this is:
Whites are outright, well, evil (my post before this). Here is an another outright racist post but it seems that because it is by elected US Congressional Representatives, racial purity is a feature and not a bug. Hey, discrimination comes with the territory – and it is condoned. What the blacks in the Congressional Black Caucus won’t do is let a black Hispanic caucus with them because “The CBC has a long-standing policy of limiting its caucus to African-American members”.
So there’s a new “Latino of African descent” that wants to be in both the Congressional BLACK Caucus as well as the Congressional HISPANIC Caucus by the name of Adriano Espaillat (Dominican past). The CBC doesn’t want him – not black enough for them. Because of his skin color (or depending on your viewpoint, a lack thereof).
Now, I know that I’m about to needle the racist SJWs out there with this, but just like in politics, I think that the phrase “If a Republican did this” works here (or in discussing race -“if a white did this”) instantly comes to mind and applies here. The outrage would be volcanic and last FOREVER. Ostracizism, shunning, destroying, writing, marching, phoning, social media storms – each and every one of the
