America’s present situation has been periodically nurtured with falsehoods such as “America isn’t a Christian nation” – not that it’s been a major influence, but it certainly provided more steam for this anti-American engine. A corrective response is best served from the time when America gained its independence. Few realize that a deep study of … Read more
This week we talk about Sydeby Sweeney and good jeans, Larry Sanders (Bernie’s brother, ICE nabbing a local Alien (known for trafficking guns and drugs), and a lot more. Speakers’ opinions are their own and may not represent those of Grok Media, LLC, GraniteGrok.com, its sponsors, readers, authors, or advertisers Got Something to Say, We … Read more
“Why ask me to press 1 for English… then transfer me to someone who barely speaks it?” That’s not just a joke taped to a car window—it’s a cry of frustration shared by millions of Americans trying to get basic service from companies that operate inside the borders of the United States but don’t care … Read more
A tidal wave is crashing toward America’s shores, and it’s not just a political shift – it’s a calculated invasion. Muslim candidates are rising in U.S. elections, and their victories are not mere milestones of diversity. They signal a relentless march toward imposing Sharia law, eroding the Constitution, and dismantling the very freedoms that define … Read more
Young people have been feeling trapped in a pit of economic hopelessness. They rent everything, accumulate debt, and see no path to success that’s even like the faltering efforts of the generation before them. Much of this malaise is the result of Democrat party priorities. Hate on white men, feminize everything, shift to a centrally … Read more
How Cultural Marxism Shapes America and the Democratic Party The name Karl Marx evokes images of revolution and class struggle—a firebrand whose influence has spanned continents and centuries. Born in 1818 in Trier, Germany, Marx’s groundbreaking manifesto, co-authored with Friedrich Engels in 1848, called for the workers of the world to unite and overturn capitalist … Read more
For minorities of every kind, who have grievances against the majority, real or imagined, leftism has a real appeal, because it basically says that, all who oppose their particular interests, are conflicted towards them or simply evil. This is what Critical Theory really teaches. If you stand up and say a woman is defined by … Read more
One of my principled objections to legal weed is similar to that of gambling. The interference of the regulatory state and revenue whores. Both are sin taxes. Either “activity” seems harmless enough in moderation, but both will get you into trouble quickly, and when it comes to pleasures and addictions, the line forms rapidly, no … Read more
Since the 1990s, federal agencies and the media have fed Americans a steady diet of panic about shadowy “right-wing militias” — usually ex-military guys obsessed with guns and ready to wage war against the government at a moment’s notice. The panic went into overdrive after January 6th, 2021. But now, in a staggering act of … Read more
I will not stereotype or cast all Progressives in one basket, ala Hillary. Still, it is becoming crystal clear that the Left is fixated on destroying our country as we know it and condemning anyone not on their side. I have no issue with debating policy differences, but that does not appear to be an … Read more
American society is rigged. It is designed so that the educated, connected elites succeed and everybody else fails. There’s no sugar coating it. By the age of 12, children of the wealthy are four grade levels above their peers and 77 times more likely to go to an Ivy League school. Once they reach adulthood, … Read more
Those words capture the sentiment of a cautious Ben Franklin when asked about the type of government that had just been created. His “a Republic if you can keep it” could now be a bit prophetic when considering the empty platitudes and aimless performances of the career politician. Sadly, their re-election results when these attitudes … Read more
If you have a drop of common sense, you already know the answer to why hiring managers might be less than enthusiastic about applicants who’ve recently graduated from college—more trouble than they are worth, even if they have a degree in something useful. The campus culture hasn’t just bilked them for a small fortune; it … Read more
From the “found in the inbox” files, some text and a TikTok from a reasonably young lady who not only doesn’t want to work, but also says she has no idea how. I don’t want to work. I told her she is not going to take my food stamps, she is not going to take … Read more
The company that makes Jaguars today isn’t the same as the one that founded it. The brand has been around for a century, having been owned by Ford Motor Company for a while, and then by Tata Motors. It’s Jaguar Landrover these days, but not for very much longer. The company promised to make all … Read more
If you want to trigger a gender bender on social media, really make them lose it, this clip from Dr. Jordan Peterson might do it. Not once but multiple times. And this isn’t necessarily the first time he’s made this point, but he drops the hammer on the extremist calling themselves the Transgender affirming left … Read more
The source of the manufacturers of unwritten cultural mandates is unseen; finalized into laws when the impact of good or bad moral mindsets fills the halls of government. Unfortunately, but necessarily, the nature of free market economies does not limit or force a spirit of righteousness or wickedness upon the people. Public opinion is the … Read more
The Left is broken, which is sort of ironic. Democrat Socialism, which is the foundation of Marxism by its founders’ own admission, breaks everything to get from wherever you are to the Communist utopia. This is known, but many on the left don’t know it. They hear promises and imagine injustices righted, but the virtue … Read more
In the middle of the Saturday dump run drive, sorry, “transfer station,” we somehow got onto the topic of toxic feminism and its effect on men and relationships. I take my trash to the dump (transfer station) every Saturday morning, and something prompted me to bring it up. My wife might say the wind blew … Read more
When Democrats declare themselves the party of something, you must immediately assume they are its nemesis. Perhaps not today, but eventually. The Cultural Marxists undermining every institution are many things, but they are also patient. The walk through the institutions, for example. The multi-decadal capture of nearly every foundation of Western Civilization. Law, Journalism, higher … Read more
