New Jersey’s Official Twitter is, well… New Jersey
New Jersey is the last, and only, state in the Country where its citizens are not allowed to pump their own gas. That’s likely one of the lowest priority problems they have, but still it begs many questions. The official Government of New Jersey Twitter account, or whoever runs it, is.. well.. Imagine living in … Read more
NH Democrat Hypocrisy, But I Repeat Myself
Being more than 3 weeks old, I’m old enough to remember when John DiStaso from WMUR called me about a fake NH Dems Twitter account. Apparently, someone exercising their free speech rights ticked them off, and it became an ‘MUR news story about how “someone” from the Hillsborough County Republican Committee had set up this … Read more
145 CEOs Beg for Gun Control

National Republican Senatorial Committee Stops Giving Money to Twitter Because “Hate!”
Twitter kind of sucks. It’s partisan, polices speech, and you know it is but many of you can’t stop using it. But the National Republican Senatorial Committee has stopped giving them money. It has terminated its ad account. Why?
First I could see her name and then POOF! I was banned. Thanks, Jan Schmidt. Oh, Jan? BTW…

Twitter: Poke, poke the ban
OK, it was back on May 3rd that I removed Steve’s tweet that got us locked out of our Twitter account. I did, however, “replace” his wording to try an experiment to see how far was a “bit too far”. My tweet was this: Strangely enough, nothing happened. No block, no ban, no lockout. So, … Read more
So we’re about to try an experiment
As many of you know, Twitter locked our account: So yes, I finally hit the REMOVE button that Twitter imposed upon us. As soon as we did, they unlocked our account. However, the ONLY reason I did so (after making it clear I wouldn’t) is to find out where the “Twitter Red Line” is; we’re … Read more
Glass Houses, dude.
Ouch: BTW: Planned Parenthood kills about 330,000 babies every year. Number of children the NRA has killed: zero Note the regular and typical Progressive / Democrat ad hominem reasoning: “RACIST!”. Note to Progressives – now that you’ve called everyone that isn’t a Progressive that term, it means nothing at all. Just like homophobic, xenophobic, misogynist, … Read more
Bill Would Allow State To Sue Big Tech (Social Media) for Viewpoint Discrimination
Big tech and social media are biased. They are, and they should admit it. Honesty matters. But they don’t. They let the Muslim Brotherhood tweet while GraniteGrok gets banned for sharing real news. Texas doesn’t like it, and they’ve proposed a legislative ‘solution.’
NHLWV -Peterborough: Ledger-Transcript’s Ben Conant loses Twitter flame war
No, not with me (GraniteGrok seems to be stuck in Twitter purgatory over a tweet that only reports actual news over New Zealand’s ban on guns that I refuse to remove) but someone else that has given permission for me to publish their screen captures of their phone “war” with Monadnock Ledger-Transcript’s Ben Conant: First, … Read more
We’re Still in Twitter Jail For Something NPR, AP and Others Reported on Twitter- Why?
In early April Twitter froze GraniteGrok’s account. Tomorrow will be three weeks. Why? Reporting on a vote in New Zealand to ban Automatic weapons violates their Twitter Rules. So, we’re not allowed to publish real news on Twitter?
Ilhan Omar: Something Happened to Some Building (in Paris)
If you’d just crawled out a cave in Waziristan having no context this ‘statement’ about the fire in the Cathedral at Notre Dame would mean about as much as she meant it to mean.
Fresh From Lock up in Twitter Jail – GraniteGrok Goes With the old “poke’em in the eye bit”
Can ya feel the love flowing from me to Twitter? Yeah, truly spoken. So, do you think they’ll even look down their Leftist noses and give us an answer or will they blow me completely off? Or will I get some drivel about a mistake, sorry, or some other pablum? Not that it means much … Read more
GraniteGrok Goes to “Twitter Jail” For Tweeting Actual News
When I clicked the “button,” to find out what was wrong…Seriously? Steve “tweeted” out actual news and the twits at Twitter banned GraniteGrok? The only remedy they give is to remove the tweet or do an “appeal”. It’s not fake news, not hate speech, no rant. Steve reported the actual New Zealand vote to take … Read more

Palate Cleanser: #MuseumBowl

Palate Cleanser: Good enough to just let it speak for itself: Trump’s first tweet
From Instapundit: HEH: ‘Oh, no’: The day Trump learned to tweet. When Trump’s young social media manager saw the tweet, he was perplexed. He typically typed and sent Trump’s tweets for the boss, but in this case he hadn’t. He did recall that Trump had been spending a lot of time in his office lately playing … Read more
NASA Admits: Mythical Beast Known As “Ice Free Arctic” Might be Decades Away
The ice-free arctic cabal has had a rough go of it. They’ve been promising us a view of that mythical beast for decades. We’ve even got rising global CO2 for bait, and yet still, there have been no sightings. That hasn’t stopped the parade of predictions even when confronted with this inconvenient truth:
