GraniteGrok & 603 Alliance – Live Streaming the NH First in the Nation Primary (Tuesday Edition)
We Are Live (Tuesday!) from Radio Row at the DoubleTree Hotel in downtown Manchester. We’ll be here All Day (out final day) on Radio Row, with a variety of “talkers” manning our table along with various Local and National guests all day long.
Brilliant! Team Trump Twitter Video Takes Nancy and Her Speech Tearing Antics to the Wood Shed
My first take on the State of the Union was that Nancy screwed up. Tearing up the speech was terrible optics. A speech loaded with good news (in particular) for women and minorities. Pelosi tore it up and team Trump is making Democrats pay a price.
Committee Gives Thumbs Down to Adding Abortion Rights Amendment to the NH Constitution
CACR 14 was a proposed amendment to the NH Constitution. Its sponsors wanted to enshrine reproductive rights (abortion) into a document they barely know and often ignore. But for some reason, they figured it would keep us from messing with it.
Dems Wear Traditional Klan Colors to SOTU While Trump Announces Record Low Black Unemployment
Democrats are bitter clingers. Not Max Klinger, though there could have been a man in that congressional audience wearing women’s white. No, I mean bitter clingers. Bitter the way a child glares at someone else who has the toy they say they wanted.
BOLO – White Sedan w/ Bernie Sticker
The State Police issued a BOLO (be on the lookout) for a small white sedan with Massachusetts plates and a Bernie for President sticker on it. It is reported that three black males are wanted for an armed home invasion in Bow, New Hampshire. They were reportedly armed with a rifle, a shotgun, and a … Read more
Republican Wins “Closely Watched” Special Election in Texas Democrats Labeled a Bellwether
Now that the Democrats have lost what was billed as a Bellwether special election, the narrative will be “actually, it didn’t matter.” It was a Republican seat in a district Trump won by 10 points. Okay, then why did the Left dump gobs of cash to try and flip it if it didn’t matter?
Another Opportunity to Save Women’s Sports
The second public hearing for HB 1251, the “Save Women’s Sports Bill” is scheduled for Tuesday, February 4 at 1 pm in the House Education Committee in the Legislative Office Building (LOB), Room 207. Only those who signed up to testify at the first hearing and didn’t have a chance to speak will be allowed to testify.
Is NH the Next Virginia?
Did Governor Sununu think the 22,000 pro-gun, constitution-loving people who showed up in Virginia were actually supporters of anti-gun legislation, or does he think, like governor Northam, that we no longer matter?
A Modest Proposal: Equal Treatment Under the (NHGOP’s) Law
Shortly after last year’s NHGOP Annual Meeting, I wrote a post entitled Identity Politics on the NHGOP eBoard. The accompanying photo cited George Orwell: All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.
GrokEndorsement: Chris Ager for NH GOP Committeeman to the RNC
We see this just like the Platform fights – a stark difference to make and a question to be answered: who is the Party for? Is it for the perennial NH GOP Elites, or is it for the rank-and-file delegates, activists, and voters?
Ager vs. Duprey: The Choice
One can often learn something about a person’s true character by examining those with whom they associate or support, giving credence to the old saying that “birds of a feather flock together.” As the son of a legal immigrant father who embraced the American Dream, it is apparent to this writer that our country has … Read more
Biden Asking NH Democrats to House Out-of-State Staffers (Who Will Probably Vote Here)
Back in Feb of 2016, the Sanders and Clinton campaign accused each other of voter fraud. I’m sure they were both guilty. This time around the Biden campaign is looking for temporary housing for out of state staffers (who will probably vote here). For Joe Biden.
Trump Announces Manchester Rally on the Eve of the New Hampshire Primary
Donald Trump came to New Hampshire last August, and we didn’t think we’d see him again for a while. Surprise! According to the Boston Globe, there are plans in the works for a Feb 10th rally, the night before New Hampshire’s First in The Nation Primary.
The NH Media Goes to Concord to Oppose HB1157 State Compelled Speech
Jack Flanagan’s bill to compel speech had a hearing yesterday and the New Hampshire media rose to the challenge. Jack, based on the reporting, stuck to his guns (that’s a figure of speech), but the Press had their say. HB 1157 violates the first amendment.
NH March for Life Starts Tomorrow Morning, Sat. January 11th.
We shared this in the right sidebar, but if you missed it, the NH March for Life is tomorrow. We have included the full schedule of events and links for you to follow.
NH Democrat Congressman’s Restaurant is the Unidentified Source of a Norovirus Outbreak
Congressman Chris Pappas owns the Puritan Backroom Restaurant in Manchester, New Hampshire. In late November, 18 people contracted intestinal issues later identified as Norovirus. Not one local news outlet identified Congressman Pappas’ restaurant as the source in their reporting.
New Hampshire’s Bi-Partisan Usurpation of Local Control
Michael Kitch’s November 22, 2019 article in the NH Business Review; “Taking on NH’s housing ‘crisis’ – Task force’s recommendations ‘a long time coming’” praises the Governor’s new plan to manage housing in NH. The plan is not an enhancement of local control, but a gross usurpation of it.
Students Deserve the Best Education Possible
All our state’s students deserve the best education possible, and many people contribute to making that happen. Parents, teachers and school officials are all critical in the effort to educate our kids and help them unlock their potential. But our state legislators are also important, because they help set the overall approach that schools take … Read more
Union Leader takes Aim at Free Staters
The Manchester Police Department is not a fan of the Free State Project, and has not kept it a secret. More often than not, the Free Staters have been known to ‘best’ the MPD in Court for violation of their rights. MPD now asks all applicants “are you now, or have you ever been a … Read more
