The wailing sound you heard last Thursday was the chorus of the Beltway warmongers shrieking in despair at President Trump’s suggestion that there was no reason for the United States to be spending one trillion dollars on “defense.” “…[O]ne of the first meetings I want to have is with President Xi of China and President … Read more
This week, Phil Kerpen from American Commitment joined me to discuss President Donald Trump’s agenda, DOGE, appointments, legal challenges, independent agencies, trade, the deficit, tax cuts, what we need from Congress, and more! Please like, follow, or subscribe to The ‘Grok on Rumble and YouTube and check for Replays of Granite State Live, GrokTALK! and Right Side Up, or … Read more
The cost of everything was already up thanks to bad economic policy. Inflation got so bad that it started to harm the so-called green energy industry. The elite’s response to that was to print more money and give it to the greenwashers, which just made inflation worse. But that wasn’t enough. Busy-body lefties piled regulations … Read more
The Democrats have two choices. They can put their collective heads together and come up with solutions, which will never happen because, even collectively, there is no level of intelligence to develop solutions. They can put their tails between their legs and work with the Republicans, who have the majority support of Americans on key … Read more
President Trump upended US Middle East policy by announcing that the United States would “take over” war-ravaged Gaza and turn it into “the Riviera of the Middle East.” President Trump also said the Palestinians living in Gaza would be (temporarily?) relocated to Jordan or Egypt. Kentucky Senator Rand Paul came out strongly against the proposal. … Read more
If you missed it, Skip and I spent a moment on a recent episode of GrokTALK! considering why GraniteGrok is getting every White House press email. I think it was because we were on Trump’s White House Press Corps list after covering a rally in Manchester in 2018 from the Media Platform. I still have … Read more
The lack of homework and research, the inability to track what is happening, and letting all that show. Like the clueless teacher in high school who gets a “Kick Me!” sign taped to his back without realizing what has been done to him. Emphasis mine, but only here on the ‘Grok. This time, the Clueless … Read more
The Executive Order Trump Train hasn’t lost any momentum even as we near the one-month mark in office. As an aside, anyone who was wondering what might happen in the first 100 days is curious as to whether he can keep this up for 100 days. By “keep up,” I mean what could be next. … Read more
In Part 1, I talked about actions you could take if someone on the Left calls you a Fascist. A vile term meant to stop any further conversation because you are evil beyond compare and unworthy of consideration or debate. But when challenged to define Fascism, Stephen Sheehy, who called Trump a Fascist, ghosted further … Read more
We begin by paraphrasing the theory that for every action there’s a reaction. While not intended, this emotional base, which the democrats feed from, is now providing ample validation to Trump’s resounding comeback win. Orators are majestic with their word mastery, but words fail to whitewash the democrat’s complete loss for any political decorum or … Read more
President Donald Trump let fly a flurry of executive orders in his first week as president. Among those was a reaffirmation of the US Constitution’s First Amendment prohibitions against government regulation of Americans’ liberties to speak and communicate free of government censorship. Volumes of evidence now point to blatant violations of this vital constitutional restraint … Read more
The noise about Elon Musk is not about the separation of powers, a Constitutional Crisis, or destroying America or our Democracy. The last one angers me because these people should know we are a Republic, not a Democracy. The noise about Elon Musk ranges from he is unelected and unconfirmed to a crook, a thief, … Read more
Riffing off my previous post about Trump (and us) being called a fascist over at “Lessons from the past about how to deal with American tariffs” I had ended it by admitting that I riled up the proprietor of Carbon Upfront!, Lloyd Alter over how Trump used the threat of a tariff against Canada and … Read more
One of President Trump’s earliest outrages was renaming things from mountains to army bases. Maybe the un-re-naming of them is a better way to say it. The virtue-signalers that preceded this administration (following in the footsteps of a previous “previous” administration) burnished its paper-thin resume by renaming things like Mt McKinley. That 2015 change turned … Read more
Americans as a people are quite fond of balls. From the relatively tiny balls in and airplane’s ball bearings that our government will happily purchase for forty-six thousand times standard markup, to the large and incredibly private masked balls the same people who make up the government like to parade themselves about with their eyes … Read more
This could be the biggest scandal of all time, perhaps the largest in history! The Democrats can’t evade this one. It’s too significant, too sordid! ~ Donald Trump In recent months, concerns about the transparency and accountability of U.S. foreign aid programs have intensified. Among the latest revelations is that the Biden administration has allocated … Read more
Democrats fear Elon having access to sensitive information. Too many people combine the terms hack, breach, and leak as synonyms. A data “hack” is intentionally done by an outside source breaking into computer systems with malice intent. Breach is the term being used to make people fear Elon. A data “leak” is the accidental release of information, often due … Read more
We have all seen the picture. It was not posed or even planned. It happened organically and was the perfect moment to climax a monumental event for every girl and woman in America. When Donald Trump signed the Executive Order protecting women in sports, it was far more than a Promises Made, Promises Kept event; … Read more
President Trump’s victory has tossed our nation’s Ship of State a life-preserver. Living up to the MAGA expectations will be a difficult task to turn the ship around, and it promises to be equivalent to threading a needle without an eye. So how do we get to shore? As the war against globalism gets hotter, … Read more
Now that Senator Brian Schatz of Hawaii is holding up all of Trump’s nominations , it seems appropriate to re-post a recommendation I made a while back: Okay, if this is the way things are going to go, here’s what I think Trump should do. He should tell the Senate: “You just pick whoever you … Read more
