The Subtitle that’s driving this: “Tolerance is fine but acceptance is the goal.” Title IX simply reads: Title IX simply reads: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving … Read more
Last year several parents, including myself, began warning school administrators about a child sexual predator attending the high school girl’s soccer games. Several parents went to work to not only warn administrators, but to address the court system that allowed Marc Jacques to roam freely at these soccer games. FROM THE U.S. ATTORNEY’S OFFICE: Marc … Read more
With a nod to our partners in crime over at the Vermont Daily Chronicle, it appears that Trump’s order to label that big body of water to the south of our Gulf Coast, The Gulf of America, has inspired others to embrace similar – even if only tongue in cheek – renamings. The Gulf of … Read more
Consider this an open letter to the House Election Law committee, which I’ve already emailed several members of. If you happen to live in Hollis, Brookline, Mason or Greenville, pay close attention because HB 130 (relative to the arrangement of candidates on primary election ballots) has only one sponsor, and he’s YOUR rep. Good afternoon, … Read more

(HB657-FN – abolishing the family division, creating the optional office of the family mediation & reassigning the jurisdiction to ensure due process and civil rights) HB657-FN Press ReleaseHB657-FN Key Points In case you missed … Read more
I watch the protests and the coverage of the radicals by the legacy opinion shows. I am completely lost as to what the Democrat’s message is to the Republicans or the American people. Collectively, they are coming across as unhinged. In one protest on Tuesday, each speaker threw at least one F-bomb, and in another, … Read more
Donald Trump has unleashed a panther in the payment systems of Federal agencies, and while opponents rant, protest, march, object, and file lawsuits, one thing stands out above the rest. The supposed party of Truth squads – the Democrats – don’t want Americans to know the truth about where their money is being spent. In … Read more

To the victors goes the spoils, usually the message in politics or life. However, in Donald Trump’s world, there are second chances for people who have a message or mission that will serve the American people. Think about how he treated “Little Marco Rubio ” in 2016. Whoever would have seen these two as a … Read more
This week, my committee continued public hearings. HB 192, ratifying the recommendations of the joint committee on employee classification, included a lesson on how the JCEC evaluates pay scales for state employees. This bill included a number of revised positions, but forgot to include a medical director in the department of corrections, which was included … Read more

Before this role, she was the Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer for Broward County Public Schools in Florida.

My friend Vindaloo Bugaboo and I often “collaborate and amplify” each other’s posts over at the commie enclave Carbon Upfront! to ensure that 1) we are trying to make the other side THINK about what they are writing, 2) get them to “play checkers” and start thinking of ramifications of “Move 1” and the effects … Read more
The WEF has picked up the UN globalization batons and populated the stakeholder table not with “member nations” but “partner corporations” to affect its hellish hierarchy, aping population growth fears and targeting food as “currently responsible for up to one-third of global greenhouse gas emissions, 70% of all freshwater withdrawals, and … the main driver … 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
New Hampshire’s housing shortage, and the price spike that it created, has made housing the No. 1 problem facing the state, according to University of New Hampshire polling.
