If NH Republicans Don’t Want to Get Wiped Out In 2026

If you missed last night’s Granite State Live, you should check it out. Great show. Keith, Terese, and guest Leah Cushman covered the NH DCYF and Famly Court hijinks, New Hampshire’s decades-long failure to protect its children, and the systemic (ongoing) cover-up of this failure. But that is not why I have gathered you here … Read more

Burns Attacks Bastarche To Protect An NHGOP Insider

In yesterday’s mail, I received an item with my name and address on a sticker label, and there was no return address, at least not on the envelope.  Expecting it to be some routine innocuous solicitation, I opened it and found it to be a hit piece on Terese Bastarche by Bob Burns.  Terese is … Read more

Abortion, Abortion, Abortion

I see in the New Hampshire Journal that the NHGOP is going to waste donor money in six figures again. It is the anniversary of the Dobbs decision, which correctly abandoned Roe v. Wade and sent the abortion question back to the states. Massachusetts and Mississippi are always going to decide differently, and under federalism, that is okay.

Trump Verdict Shows How Pathetic And Useless The NHGOP Is

We are witnessing the 2024 election being stolen … the latest and most obvious: the Kafkaesque sham trial of Donald Trump in the kangaroo-courts of New York … and what is the reaction of the NHGOP? To call for Red States to conduct law fare back against the Democrats? To call for New Hampshire Retirement … Read more

Kudos To Ross Berry

So, I was mentioned in a recent post titled ROSS BERRY by someone named Anonymous. So I should respond, and I do as follows: KUDOS TO ROSS BERRY! To hell with the NH Democrats, who should be getting called Woke-Communists because that is what they are.

And Another “You Can’t Make This Stuff Up” … NHGOP House Leader Blames Democrats For GOP Failure To Ban Sanctuary Cities

On May 2nd, a bunch of GOP Reps failed to show up for work. On the day that Kelly Ayotte’s signature issue, illegal immigration, was up for a vote. The bill, HB 563 LOST by eleven votes. Eight “GOP” Reps voted with the DemocratsWoke-Communists to allow sanctuary-cities, while eleven GOP failed to show up (versus seven DemocratWoke-Communist no-shows).

No … You Are NOT A Political Activist

IF you consider yourself a political activist … then there is a thread on X from Jesse Kelly that is a MUST-READ. But let’s start with me, okay? Am I a political activist? NO. Writing posts for GraniteGrok does NOT make me a political activist. It makes me a political commentator (the dysfunctional NHGOP would probably use gadfly instead of commentator). But it does NOT make me an activist.

Not Me, Jason

If you want to understand why NHGOP House “leadership” believes it can ignore the priorities of actual GOP voters while instead pushing their decidedly non-GOP agenda … an obsession with legalizing marijuana, outlawing single-family zoning, increasing urban density, and catering to the rich and the elites (e.g., ending interest-and-dividends tax) while ignoring working people (no … Read more
