PAGE: Finger-Pointing Bernie Has Himself To Blame for Looming AI Power Crisis

November 27, 2025 Guy Page

Let’s talk about Senator Bernie Sanders, artificial intelligence, and—of course—blaming Donald Trump for America’s rising electricity rates. After spending his political career saying NO to large baseload power producers, Bernie Sanders now says there’s “not enough electricity to go around.” And—big surprise—he’s pointing the finger at the billionaires again. In a letter dated November 10, … Read more

ROPER: The Solution to the SNAP & LIHEAP Crisis – Open the Government!

October 26, 2025 Rob Roper

With SNAP (food stamps) and LIHEAP (home heating) benefits for low-income Vermonters set to be turned off in November if the federal government doesn’t reopen ASAP, state and local politicians are scrambling to find alternative solutions. So far, despite vague promises, they don’t have any. Nothing concrete and actionable, at any rate. LIHEAP in Vermont … Read more

MacDonald: Trump’s EPA Kills $7 Billion Solar Gimme; Dems Whine

August 10, 2025 Steve MacDonald

The Clintons were famous for (among other things) taking souvenirs from the White House when their time ended in January of 2001. Things that temps don’t typically get to keep. I’m not sure if the Bidens followed the Clintons’ lead, but whoever was running the Biden Administration shoveled hundreds of billions of debt-bloating dollars into … Read more

Warner: The Epstein Insult

August 4, 2025 Aaron Warner

Despite being heavily stitched into the Iran-Contra scandal, the 2007 market crash, and the growing surveillance state, Jeffrey Epstein is given to us by the media as a sleazy lothario whose predilection for barely pubescent girls was resolved by both his death and the imprisonment of his co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell. However, the media aren’t alone … Read more

Bernie and the Privileged Political Class

May 14, 2025 Rob Roper

A teachable moment (for others, not Bernie, who will never learn). Our senior senator made big news last week in an interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier. When the anchor confronted Sanders about the $221,000 he and Representative Alexandria Ocasio Cortez have spent so far on private jets during their Fighting the Oligarchy tour, as … Read more

Bernie Sanders’ Hysterical “Onesies” Rant And His Animus for Free Speech

February 19, 2025 John Klar

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders’s comical display over babies’ “onesies” during Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s Senate confirmation hearing for HHS Secretary was an attempted assault on the right to free speech. The speech policing of the Biden administration is not yet in the rearview mirror: it was on full display when Sanders demanded Kennedy curtail the … Read more

Bananas: Sweet Caroline and Colonel Sanders

February 5, 2025 Johnny Bananas (Fake News Reporter!)

As Trump appointees lined up like prisoners readying for a firing squad in DC the swirling banshees came out in full force to denounce the threats to democracy and freedom, namely that of the legislators who fear they may end up in prison after not having made the Biden pardon list. Among the many red-faced … Read more

Hassan’s Heated Hearing Performance, “Bought” To You By Big Pharma!

January 30, 2025 Steve MacDonald

In a not-so-strange coincidence, the amount of outrage, sorry, I mean objection directed at Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at his confirmation hearing can be tied to the amount of money the concerned “watchdog” Senator has received from … Big Pharma. A clip of New Hampshire’s own Margaret Wood Hassan made the rounds on X with … Read more

Bananas: VT Sex-Work Legislators Put Money Where Mouths Are

A recent decision by Planned Parenthood New England to shut down four of its Vermont clinics has many lawmakers in Montpelier ready to hop into the sack to save them.

Bananas Halloween Activism Spooktackular!

November 2, 2023 Johnny Bananas (Fake News Reporter!)

It was an odd year for Halloween here in Vermont. Typically Halloween is used as an opportunity to either conjure up the dead or celebrate those who’ve passed on into the great mortuary in the sky. In contrast to our banal day-to-day lives Halloween gives us a chance to play the impish tricksters or treat our neighbors to the fright of their lives.

Bernie Sanders is Still Laundering Campaign Cash to Family Members

October 27, 2023October 27, 2023 Steve MacDonald

Back in August, we published our first report on the Saunders Institute for Money Laundering. The so-called non-profit had been the beneficiary of campaign cash leftovers from the Sanders for Public Office slush fund. At the time, he’d transferred 200,000.00 dollars, but according to the FEC, he wasn’t done.

The Sanders Institute for Laundering Campaign Cash Into Relatives Pockets

October 25, 2023August 10, 2023 Steve MacDonald

The Sanders Institute might feel the Bern after a recent Fox News report that showed 200K from Senator Sander’s Campaign funds getting shoveled into the nonprofit created by his wife and stepson to…pay his stepson a “living wage.”

Vermont’s Oldest Loon Dies – No, It Wasn’t Bernie Sanders

July 16, 2024June 17, 2023 Steve MacDonald

Headline: Vermont’s Oldest Loon Dies…” My first thought is that the perennial primary victim of DNC hijinks, Senator Bernie Sanders, had shuffled off his mortal coil. Nope. He’s still kicking. They are talking about a different old bird.

Bernie Sanders – As If We Didn’t Already Know This: After $999 Million, Govt Should Just Take The Rest

May 14, 2023 Skip

100% of it. You earn it and watch Bernie’s IRS swoop in and take every last cent. He proves our point that the answer to the question of “Who’s money is it FIRST?” is that it isn’t the person that earned it. A reminder: I used to ask Bruce Currie, a past frequent commenter until … Read more

March 15, 2023 Johnny Bananas (Fake News Reporter!)

Reading is hard. Reading to children is even harder so it’s important you do everything to get their attention or else they might not learn good. Which explains why parents throughout the United States have sought the help of experts at getting attention – Drag Queens.

It’ll Cost You $95 to Hear Bernie Sanders Tell You Why Capitalism is Bad

Yeah, right. This is the guy that has always advocated for Government to be bigger and more intrusive, has said that if he had the power, he’d get rid of all charities (Government should do EVERYTHING), and honeymooned in Moscow.

November 29, 2021November 29, 2021 Skip

GraniteGrok now has well over 44,000 posts in its archive – and I have written well over 16,000 of them and Steve is credited with an almost as large number as well. Why do I bring this up?

For the First Time in Years, I Simply Walked past the Salvation Army Kettle …

November 27, 2021 Skip

Unlike Progressive-Socialists who believe that “charity” can only be carried out by Government and not by private entities (see Bernie Sanders, below), Conservatives believe that each ONE of us is PERSONALLY responsible for helping others out – not as a Collective.
