For twenty years, GraniteGrok has been offering opinions, observations, and reporting stories the media either ignore or would never report from “that angle.” Many of these stories are the result of tips and leads from readers. We platform people who go where Handmaid media won’t go, and offer news and opinion that aren’t beholden to … Read more
I realize I devoted my most recent article to the Islamic invasion of America. Still, I absorbed a plethora of information over the weekend about the depth of the fraud and corruption in Minnesota, and now in Maine, that I feel we cannot cover this situation enough. A friend of ours is from Edina, which is a … Read more
I can’t say for how long Somali fraud schemes will dominate searches in the real world. That would be, ironically, the internet world, which can tend to be more surreal than real. The supposed media isn’t doing any heavy lifting on these stories if they lift anything at all. Locally, WMUR, News 9, has zero … Read more
Somalis are getting a lot of much-needed attention in places like Minnesota and Maine, where they’ve walked off with billions in taxpayer dollars through coordinated acts of fraud. If they were wearing MAGA hats and voting for Republicans, Democrats would be outraged. There would be congressional investigations, criminal charges, lots of negative coverage from their … Read more
What if I were to tell you that you can take a Somali out of tribal Somalia, but you can’t take tribal Somalia out of the Somali? What I’m about to tell you should infuriate you. American taxpayers have been sending billions of dollars to Somalia’s Islamic Jihadist group, Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujāhideen, simply known as … Read more
The fraud crisis in Minnesota is getting worse, and the plot thickens by the day. The latest evaluation puts the potential lost dollars at $9 billion. That is not just Minnesota funds lost in the wind, as some of these programs targeted were federal, like Medicaid, and therefore, it was all our money; we all … Read more
There are two problems I see when I get frustrated over the lack of outrage about the billions of dollars stolen from social safety-net programs in Minnesota and probably beyond. One is that I don’t think fraud generates enough angst toward those who took something by deceptive practices, and the other is the unified effort … Read more
The breadth and depth of the fraud in government programs is the key to winning every debate about cutting the programs that waste all your money. The Dems claimed Republicans wanted to gut Medicare when what they were targeting was fraud. If they are better at messaging, we lose the debate, nothing gets cut, and … Read more
Talk about a double tap. We’ve got illegal immigrants committing crimes, Americans most certainly will do, while simultaneously proving there is massive fraud in the Medicaid System. If I recall correctly, before caving, Senate Democrats shut the government down, demanding that taxpayers give up their hard-earned dollars to provide health care to illegals. That was … Read more
The numbers from Minnesota are staggering, but with the same people doing the reporting on the magnitude of the Somali fraud cases, as the ones duped by the Somali cartel, can you trust their findings? The latest estimates are in the billions of dollars of Minnesota resident tax dollars that were stolen from various government … Read more
Nothing would be quite so sweet as the likelihood that the “health care crisis” Senate Dems are holding the government hostage to address isn’t about health care at all. That those ObamaCare subsidies they are fighting to renew outside regular order are COVID-Era bailouts to the Medical industrial complex. The Democrats have named their price … Read more
By now, most Americans have heard about the Justice Department’s 2025 National Health Care Fraud Takedown, which uncovered $14.6 billion in fraudulent schemes involving Medicare and taxpayer funds. What you may not realize is that this kind of fraud is happening quietly and regularly, to people like me, and possibly to you. In January 2023, … Read more
In what strikes me as a confluence of left-wing interests, Levita Almuete Ferrer, henceforth to be known as “A Maryland Woman,” has been indicted for robbing taxpayers of over $657,347.50 while working for the Biden State Department. The (now) former employee has pleaded guilty to using government computers and access to expense accounts to write … Read more
In every procedural/cop show Hollywood produces, there are two tropes the writers can’t leave out. It’s as if they are required and will lose their guild membership if they do. Lawyering up is bad (sold as a sign of guilt), as is requiring a warrant before any search. I could go downtown and get a … Read more
Oh my, you could not have written a more sensational story than the real-life saga of Letitia James. Letitia James, the outspoken, Trump-hating attorney general of New York, is going to fall hard, very hard, and every Republican is going to cheer her fall. We had to look and listen to her for months as … Read more
After more than 4 years of research and findings that the alphabet media detested the idea of reporting, here are some COVID protocol results from Dr. Russell Blaylock, Dr. Pierre Kory, Dr. Ryan Cole, and so many others. Strange new blood clots and diseases; actual COVID treatments were outlawed; autopsies not being performed; skeptical physicians … Read more
The Public Utilities Commission is tasked with setting up the Clean Heat Standard, a tax on heating fuel from regional providers to subsidize experimental electric heating technologies. After one year on the task, they appear to be waving a white flag on a complex carbon credit trading scheme, but they are still recommending a simple … Read more
A Democrat governor guilty of mismanagement and fraud? Can’t be! (that was sarcasm, by the way). Sorry, but it’s true. While misappropriation of paper money printed by the Fed is common, and more common – I’d argue – where Democrat machines control the politics, even folksy governor Tim Walz has found himself a suspect. [An … Read more
Many Nashua citizens have lost confidence in our city officials’ ability to handle FUNDING complex municipal projects transparently. One recent project even questioned whether the city has complied with NH State laws. This project was the Performing Arts Center (PAC). The result has been a loss of confidence in City Hall and a more costly new Arts … Read more
In the age of digital globalization, scams have become a widespread problem, often orchestrated from across the globe. While scam stories are far from new, the evolving nature of fraud, the countries from which they originate, and the staggering financial losses for the United States require fresh analysis. Key Scam Originating Countries Several nations have … Read more
