My landline is not long for this world, but that is no longer the last beachhead for spam or scam calls. They call your mobile too, though I have the same rule for both. If the number is not identifiable, you get voicemail no matter how badly you want to extend my vehicle’s warranty.

NH DOJ Has Page for COVID19 Scams But No Mention of Scams Run by State Government
Not every unscrupulous cad succeeds in running for public office. Many of them freelance. Those ‘scammers’ don’t use the law to separate you from your property or your rights, so they are outlaws. And in NH, your state too, I expect, we have a page to alert us about unauthorized COVID19 scams.
The Lincoln Project Was an Exercise In Graft And Not Much Else
Recent research reveals that the Lincoln Project not only failed to move anyone politically it has admitted that this was (more or less) never the point. It collected and spent billions in what amounts to masturbation and money-laundering.
California Follows New Hampshire – Uses Carbon Credit Scam Fund For ‘Budget Bail Money’
New Hampshire is famous for its dedicated funds. Dedicated to whatever the spenders in Concord need when revenues don’t come in as predicted. For the record that’s primarily a Democrat problem but it’s a problem with a purpose.
BlogQuestion of the Day: Free? Free? Free?
“All these Democratic candidates want free college for everyone. Which one worked for free as a professor?” Actually, have any of them ever worked professionally for free? I’m not talking about the lawyers in the bunch doing the occasional pro-bono work, or the others doing something free on an occasional basis. The question is, how … Read more
“Medicare for All” – Soviet style healthcare
“…Dems are forgetting to tell you that private insurance will be banned under their scheme”
by Betsy McCaughey
President Barack Obama made a stunning policy shift Friday, endorsing Medicare for All — a single-payer health system for the nation. Most Democrats contending for the 2020 presidential nomination and many Dems vying for congressional seats this fall are backing it, too. Beware: They’re pulling a bait-and-switch. The phrase Medicare for All sounds as American as apple pie. A new Reuters poll shows 70 percent of Americans respond to it favorably.
Yet the public isn’t getting the truth about what it means.
I Just Received an Email from Capt. Steve Rogers. I Kid You Not.
I know there are gullible people and I get that folks don’t know what they don’t know but this is hilarious. A very serious email from Capt. Steve Rogers. No, not Captain America, the Steve Rogers who used to be a Nigerian Prince who has a secret fortune to share if I am willing got subject myself to identity theft.
Has California Decided That Coffee Doesn’t Cause Cancer After All?

Danish Meteorological Institute: Arctic Sea Ice Volume at 11-Year High
The Ice-Free Arctic narrative continues to struggle as both expert, and armchair predictions come up “short” again and again. The Danish Meteorological Institute reports that Arctic Sea ice volume is above the 15-year mean and at an 11-year high.

Healthcare In New Hampshire: A Brief History
By Aaron Day
Today the Republicans lead the charge to re-authorize Obamacare Medicaid expansion. The budget for New Hampshire for the past 27 years is built on a funding mechanism that borrows billions from children and ignores making real structural changes. Our healthcare system would be better and less expensive if we didn’t rely on the Federal Government and opened up the state to free markets in healthcare.
Here is a brief history of how New Hampshire got here. We will have to deal with this eventually. It is up to us to decide if we will address proactively or from a position of absolute crisis.

Is The NH Dem Petition Against Baldasaro A Fraud?
If you missed it, a State party Democrat (David Robinson), speaking for a left wing Veterans group (VoteVets.org) is part and parcel to an effort by the New Hampshire Democrat Party to petition House Speaker O’Brien to remove Republican Al Baldasaro as Chairman of the House Veterans Affairs Committee. None of the reporting to date, other than here at GraniteGrok, has identified the group or Robinson as Democrat-backed or connected. But there’s news about the petition they plan to give to O’Brien.
If you go to Change.org, you can see the petition set up by the New Hampshire Democrat Party, but the list of signatories is not accessible just by visiting the petition page. One thing we do know however is that of the ten names we can see, seven of them are from out of state.
