Money quotes from his piece at Powerline: “In the last 21 days, approximately 162,000 Americans have died. Of that number, 150 were killed by the Wuhan virus. Here is a prediction: the deaths of Americans caused by the Wuhan flu bug will be dwarfed by the suicides committed by people whose life’s savings have been … Read more
So here is Josh Marcus-Blank, one of the New Hampshire Democrat’s army of twitter-trolls, whom I often refer to as “Jeannie’s eunuch” because his assigned task appears to be promoting Senator Jeannie and attacking her potential opponents: Jeannie’s eunuch spent much of yesterday attacking one of the GOP Senatorial candidates, General Bolduc, over an assertion … Read more
I’d like to thank Emily Farris. Who’s that? She is an Associate Professor of Political Science at Texas Christian University. She is concerned that recoded lectures on anything controversial could end up on web sites like GraniteGrok. Capital Idea!
I was sitting here thinking, with all the colleges sending everyone home, is 2020 the year NH has fair elections again? It will be interesting to see voter counts.
It will be quite fun to watch the Presidential Debates. If, as Joe has said, he and Bernie share common ideals, but he can’t remember what they are, Trump can twist him into knots over what he has said and hasn’t.
It was big news when a Democrat Socialist won a seat in a Republican-leaning State House district in Hooksett, New Hampshire. So, where are the news reports on this? A Democrat State House district in Pennsylvania that went +9 for Hillary in 2016 just flipped to the GOP.
German Measles, Spanish Flu, MERS, and now Chinese Flu. Is catching it a form of cultural appropriation? Finding treatments and cures as well? Like that malaria medicine, I wrote about a few days ago. It’s being fast-tracked to treat Coronavirus patients.

This week has been an incredible challenge for New Hampshire families and educators. With Gov. Sununu’s order to shift all public schools to remote instruction, our school administrators, faculty, and staff and the families they support have had to craft new ways to teach New Hampshire students who aren’t in the building.

No. Really. I’m not kidding. What about the public’s safety? Well, you are deluding yourself if you think the ACLU cares about the public’s safety. And you are hopelessly naive if you think that the ACLU is being ingenuous. The ACLU wants to do away with prisons. They see Wuhan-Virus as a tool in that … Read more
It’s time to roll back RGGI and tell TCI to go pound sand (again). That’s right. All the crying, screaming, and delirium over the state of nature – or more specifically the fantasy of our impact upon it and the lefts demands to mitigate that – make the Coronavirus Happy!
I respect Eva Bak and David Riese for expressing their opinions last week against my article in the Feb. 27th edition of the Windham Independent and also posted here on the Granite Grok. In that article, I exposed the heinous decision of Senators Shaheen and Hassan, who voted to NOT protect the lives of newborn infants
I have been known, from time to time, to ask questions. Like, why am I paying for other people’s elective surgeries? It’s my money but I don’t get to choose?

Those actors who seem to get the most attention and platforms (soapboxes) from the media these days are usually those who … Read more
