Democrats suck for lots of reasons, not the least of which is this. Over Father’s Day weekend, 44* people were shot, 7 of them permanently. That’s more than three dozen gunshot wounds over a three-day period, and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson took time to express his concern about trans-femicide. 00:00 Introduction and Overview of Current … Read more

You have finally created a generation of Socialists who will band together to finish the task of taking down the evil and oppressive America. I preface this article … Read more
I just read a great piece on Substack about what it’s like to break the chemical addiction cycle of the internet, and specifically, social media. The dopamine loop. The pleasure-pain balance. Interesting stuff. You all likely know by now that when your phone does that little alert thing, be it a beep, tweet, chirp, or … Read more
Unconditional submission” or “resistance by force.” Thomas Jefferson, John Dickinson, and the Second Continental Congress said those were their two terrible options less than three months after the battles of Lexington and Concord and the “shot heard ‘round the world.” This is the story of the forgotten declaration in which they explained why they fought back. THE … Read more
Among the key men involved in the American Revolution and the following periods, we find an oft-repeated concern that may seem foreign to us today—the threat of standing armies. This was a heritage of British legal thought and history, and it became an underappreciated part of American political thought and experience. Why were peacetime standing armies … Read more
Unless there is a major meltdown or a situation nobody sees coming, the Republicans have a potential ticket that should beat any combination of Democratic candidates.

J. is joined by NetChoice’s Patrick Hedger to push back against data center misinformation, including how this goes beyond artificial intelligence, the importance of the … Read more
About this time every year, and more so this year as we celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday, our friends on the Left tell us that our nation’s founders were either enlightened freethinkers who thoroughly rejected the tenets of Christianity or that they were evil, exploitative Eurocentric white men whose only purpose in life was to … Read more
Editor’s note: I have regained control of the website, but there’s still some work to do. Monday memes have been preempted, but there is a version on my Substack (I wasn’t expecting to have access yet). One of the things that sets GraniteGrok apart, and no, I don’t mean getting hacked and not updated all weekend (sigh), was our … Read more
Today, on The Morning Update, Trump got Congress to block FISA Section 702, and now he’s holding it hostage while the guy they didn’t want at DNI guts the deep staters in the Intelligence Community.

In year one of Trump 2.0, the DOJ made it clear that Antifa was not, as the progressives who benefited from its intimidation tactics, the Keebler Elves. It was real, and rather than a disconnected coincidence like Book Club (as the proglodytes kept claiming), Antifa was a well-funded, well-trained, well-organized militant guerrilla group. Everyone paying … Read more
For transporting us beyond seas, to be tried for pretended offences.” From the Declaration of Independence, one of the charges against the King that justified secession. It was built on a violent American raid on a British ship years earlier that few of us are ever taught about. In the early hours of June 10, … Read more
Two features of the progressive cult that appear obvious, but which don’t get enough attention, are the othering of people and the justification of violence, including murder. They’ve both been featured on these pages and in past morning updates, but the message needs to seep into the so-called political middle. The middle likes to ignore … Read more
Every June 19, the same paragraph gets read aloud. Granger, Galveston, General Order No. 3, freedom at last. All true. On that morning in 1865, Major General Gordon Granger landed on Galveston Island with more than two thousand troops and declared the enslaved free. He also voided every act of the Texas legislature since secession, … Read more

I confess that I was more than angry on Monday morning at the Democrats and the stupid talking heads on the legacy media outlets. That statement may be harsh, as ‘stupid’ is a difficult word to use to describe a mature adult, but in this case, it may not be harsh enough. My statement is … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, great news for taxpayers. The DOJ has charged 324 defendants connected to $ 14.6 billion in alleged fraud, including licensed medical professionals, transnational criminals, and drug dealers, defrauding our safety-net programs across 12 states.

The Left Coast Lunatics are setting a new standard for bureaucratic red tape. Rainbow colored tape, actually. The State has a program that awards energy “supplier-diversity benefits,” which has been expanded to encourage the energy sector to award contracts to gay businesses. By 2022, CPUC had fully implemented the expansion. In practice, this meant establishing … Read more
