Have you ever attended a committee hearing with a large turnout? Whether or not the committee chair is a pleasant one, it’s common to hear the chair saying words like, “if someone else has already said your talking point, we don’t need to hear it again; please save all of us some time,” as people … Read more
A dear and faithful friend of mine, Al Fulchino, wrote an essay and has given me permission to publish it on his behalf. Al is a true Constitutional Patriot and wants the best for our state and country. We had a meeting the other evening with one of our local candidates, during which Al raised … Read more
Before you vote in November, and you will vote (please), you need to understand something. I know, I’ve articulated a long list of things Democrats would do or will do if they get back in control of anything at any level of government. More crime, less enforcement, no detention of foreign criminals, ending fraud investigations- … Read more
Republicans can take two NH House of Representatives seats in Concord this November. However, it will require strong support from Republicans and Independents in Sullivan County District 8, which includes Acworth, Claremont, Croydon, Goshen, Langdon, Lempster, Springfield, Sunapee, and Washington. Sullivan County candidates Catherine Peschke and Sebastian Zyzdorf are two fresh faces teaming up to … Read more
This week, on The New England Take, A. J. is joined by Maine Republican Party’s Kristina Parker to dive into the implosion of Graham Platner, with his evil backstory of womanizing, deception, and communist admissions. They also break down Maine’s gubernatorial race, with the drive to flip it red and how the Maine GOP is … Read more
Nashua has around 90,000 people in it, give or take, making it the second largest collection of people in a municipality in the state of New Hampshire. As of June 2026, 46,917 of them are registered to vote. As you’d expect, Dems have a registration advantage, but something has happened since 2024. Based on data … Read more
The handmaiden media doesn’t want you to know this. The Democrats have a massive enthusiasm gap compared to Republicans. The media won’t air any of the Left’s laundry, but there’s a lot of it, and it’s dirty. Based on the most recent FEC filings, Republicans and allies have raised an historic $939 million ahead of … Read more
Turning Family Zoned Neighborhoods Into Strip Malls In 2025, the New Hampshire Republican “crazy-caucus,” with Democrat support, gutted the ability of cities/towns to maintain single-family zoned neighborhoods. For example, a State law (House Bill 457) was passed that allows houses in single-family-zoned neighborhoods to be converted into boarding houses. As a result, Blackstone or some … Read more
The conservative outlook is centered on a rock-solid commitment to limited government, personal freedom, free-market capitalism, and a robust national defense. These principles have served as the bedrock upon which the Republican Party was built. However, the establishment Republicans have become something of a nuisance to our republic. Regretfully, the current path and direction of … Read more
Dan Bongino rediscovered something many of us have known for a while, and it’s not that he didn’t know it. Sometimes you can do more for the movement, issue, party, candidate, whatever it is, from the outside. Don’t get me wrong, without champions on the inside, nothing ever changes, but Bongino just spent half a … Read more
Are you wondering why the Republican Senate has accomplished almost nothing of Trump’s legislative agenda? If not, you should be. And here is why the feckless Republicans again fail the 80 million voters who returned Donald J. Trump to the White House as the 47th President of the United States. Simply put, there is the … Read more
Yes, I heard the cries of a number of you behind me begging me not to do it. Yes, I saw a goodly number of you stand up to walk out of the room to avoid the vote. I even stood for the request to register the vote via a roll call. It was, in … Read more
Most of the narratives about working together and being bipartisan come from the bot machines and narrative dinghies on the left. The media pressure and the social media trends are all pressure campaigns to convince Republicans that Americans won’t like them if they behave like Democrats. The left is ruthless. When they have a majority, … Read more
The first Rule of Democrat narratives ought to be that whatever the ‘experts’ say about Trump, the opposite is likely True. The Second rule is that whatever Dems say in the first rule is a projection. Whatever misery they prognosticate is one of theirs and the result of careful planning. Once back in power, they … Read more
Senator Sam Douglass was in a group chat of Young Republicans where some people did say some truly disgusting things. There were undeniably antisemitic and anti-black racist terms used, and comments made. This came to light in an article by the hard-left, deeply partisan site, Politico, based on leaked transcripts. The Politico article was posted … Read more
On today’s morning update, news for Democrats is dire as almost no one likes what they are doing, but is your state or local GOP using that effectively or…at all? 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, … Read more
You’d be right to wonder why, when you’ve finally got a majority in both chambers and the Chief Executive is one of yours, you’d waste your time on a bunt when you could swing for the fences. Ironically, we’ve got that in New Hampshire and DC, but Republicans don’t seem to know what to do … Read more
Mr Sylvia said, “The Senate is a place where good House bills go to die.” GM Hopf said, “Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.” A Granite Stater in a red community said, “Sadly, Republicans have been their own worst enemy … Read more
Republicans have allowed Democrats to take a victory lap on President Donald Trump’s first days in office. It seems like a broken record to say that Republicans are great at writing statements and even better at doing nothing, but that perfectly sums up their work over the last 100 days as the majority party. While Trump has … Read more
The New Hampshire General Court, our legislature, has reached “crossover.” The House has acted on all its bills and has begun to address Senate Bills. The Senate has done the converse. I have crunched the numbers, i.e., the voting records in 2025 through crossover, to determine objectively which members are RINOs—Republicans In Name Only. I … Read more
