Et tu, Grok? Even Musk's Grok knows that Trump is probably a Russian asset. (BTW, who knew that Musk pictured Grok as a woman?)

According to the AI chatbot called Grok, which was developed by Elon Musk’s company xAI, there is a “75-85% likelihood” that the person who delivered the State of the Union address on Tuesday night is a “Putin-compromised” Russian asset. [...] This all began with a question put to Grok. It was: “What is the likelihood from 1-100 that Trump is a Putin-compromised asset? Use all publicly available information from 1980 on and his failure to ever say anything negative about Putin but has no issue attacking allies.” [...] Of Trump, Grok said in part, “Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, as Trump faced bankruptcies, he increasingly relied on funding from sources tied to Russia and former Soviet states. His sons, Donald Jr. and Eric, made statements reinforcing this: Donald Jr. in 2008 said, ‘Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets,’ and Eric in 2014 claimed, ‘We have all the funding we need out of Russia.’” It also noted that “leaked Kremlin documents reported by The Guardian in 2021 suggest Putin personally approved a 2016 operation to back Trump, viewing him as ‘mentally unstable’ and exploitable, with potential compromising material from past Moscow visits.” As for drawing its artificially intelligent “maximally truth-seeking” conclusion, Grok said, “Weighing this, the financial ties (decades-long, opaque, and substantial), intelligence suggesting Russian intent, and Trump’s unwavering refusal to criticize Putin despite attacking allies tilt the scale.” Given all that (and more, if you read the entire assessment), Grok said that “Trump’s ego and debts make him unwittingly pliable, fits the evidence. Adjusting for uncertainty and alternative explanations (e.g., ideological alignment or naivety), I estimate a 75-85% likelihood Trump is a Putin-compromised asset, leaning toward the higher end due to the consistency of his behavior and the depth of historical ties.” So says the truth-seeking AI chatbot developed by Musk’s own company.

SOME LEGISLATORS ARE ALSO WONDERING : Even Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) commented on X about Grok's assessment: "Oh, my. Grok comes through again. Even AI sees Trump/Russia."

UK's Graham Stuart MP also commented on X: "We have to consider the possibility that Trump is a Russian asset. If so, Trump's acquisition is the crowning achievement of Putin's FSB career - and Europe is on its own."

THE RUSSIA INVESTIGATION CONTINUES TO BE DISTORTED: Ever since Bill Barr's "executive summary" distorted the findings of the Mueller report, Trump and his lackeys (like FBI director Kash Patel) keep pushing the false claim that the entire Russia investigation was a "hoax." (Patel has even gone so far as to write a children's book, The Plot Against the King to indoctrinate kids into this distorted belief.)

MAGA GULLIBILITY: Trump's MAGA base continues to cling to the lies about the Russian investigation being a "hoax" despite a mountain of contradictory evidence that even Musk's Grok couldn't overlook.

MAGA gullibility apparently knows no bounds.

Except the states and municipalities can’t afford to properly fund it on their own and the red states don’t even try. Trump falsely says America is at the bottom of the barrel in education. Well here’s something easy to look up, Red States are at the bottom of the barrel.

All this money they’re going to have after canceling the entire government is going to be given to billionaires and corporations. All of your hard earned money is going to be given as a gift to those who don’t need it.

Most #gullible people are too gullible to realize that they are indeed gullible – and that is #awesome #news for #authoritarian #propagandists.  Are YOU naïve? Find out.

“Democrats must think us conservatives are so gullible”

yep! You quite literally wear a little hat with the duplicitous promises your wrinkled bull testicle of an idol coined specifically to dupe you into thinking he gave a stinking shit about anything else than your money! And he in fact still is doing so with an absolute vice grip on your nards in greater ways than he ever has before, slashing your social security with a machete and ripping away the healthcare programs and workers rights bills that keep you and your fellow blue collar workers alive, and giving that money, YOUR MONEY, to a bunch of butt puckering billionaires from hell so that he can continue raping the country for all its worth, and leaving the American people with nothing but ruin and pain in its place! But you’ll never realize that, because you’re all a bunch of fart sniffing, cock sucking racists who would rather see a trans child or a black woman suffer than reap any benefit for yourselves whatsoever, So yes, we do think you are gullible, because WE are suffering the consequences of YOUR brain dead, chin drooling, blind eyed loyalties, and so are you, you’re just too stupid to realize it yet.

DRONES, DRONES, DRONES!!! WATCH OUT!!!

For over a decade, commercial and hobbyist drones have been buzzing through the skies without incident, yet suddenly people are losing their collective minds over this non-issue as if it's the harbinger of Armageddon. Are you all seriously this gullible? This isn't new technology—hell, we're talking about a military town with Fort Huachuca right there, the same Fort Huachuca that helped pioneer the use of surveillance drones in the first place. This isn’t Skynet coming online; it’s glorified flying cameras that have been around longer than some TikTok influencers have been alive. Meanwhile, a friend of mine has been building custom quadcopters for nearly two decades without a single newsworthy apocalypse resulting from it. But sure, let’s all clutch our pearls over something we’ve lived with peacefully for years, because apparently, critical thinking is optional these days.

The worst part? This drone outrage is nothing but a cheap distraction. While the masses are busy hyperventilating over the "threat" of flying gadgets, actual threats to democracy and justice are barreling forward unchecked. Luigi Mangione’s case—an explosive reflection of systemic neglect and institutional abuse—barely registers on the public radar. And Trump, the felonious rapist insurrectionist, and Elon, the tax-dodging manchild playing geopolitical chess with government subsidies, are tearing apart democratic norms like it’s their God-given right. Yet here we are, hand-wringing over drones, because apparently, a shiny distraction is all it takes to steer the public away from the real threats. Wake up. The manipulation is blatant, and your outrage is being weaponized against you while these bastards continue their games unchecked.

Saying "Trump is a liar" is sort of like saying "dog bites man". It's a matter of course. Even many of his followers acknowledge his untrustworthiness but back him anyway.

Though it's still useful to have the facts ready in case you run into one of those rare undecided voters.

We went through the speeches Trump made at his two Wednesday campaign rallies in the critical swing state of Pennsylvania, one in Scranton and one in Reading. In those two addresses alone, he uttered at least 40 separate false claims.

We don't have space and time to list all of them, though you can check them at the link at the head of this post. It's worth bookmarking or even downloading.

Earlier, fact checker Daniel Dale did a separate article dealing just with Trump's torrent of lies about immigration.

Fact check: Debunking Trump’s October lying spree about immigration

Dishonesty is a lifestyle choice for Trump. He told an average of 20.92 lies per day during his administration.

Washington Post counts 30,573 false or misleading claims in four years by Trump

The number of lies he's told since leaving office is probably incalculable.

42% voted for Trump, 18% voted for Jill Stein, and only 36% voted for Harris. Chickens for McNuggets. Protest votes elect Republicans. The deaths of millions will be on your hands.

Protest voters need to be reminded of the pain, suffering, persecution, and death they cause when they are complicit in electing Republicans.

Millions of Americans will suffer under Trump in the U.S. and hundreds of millions will suffer worldwide. THINK BEFORE YOU VOTE!

Noticing a trend where an (alleged) rapist or sex offender can just run to the states, don a red hat, and call themself a Christian and suddenly, no matter how much evidence there is, they'll have a huge mob backing them and will be absolved of all guilt...

Elon’s been banning accounts in mass for pointing out that he was in one of those Twitter spaces going in on republicans and calling them stupid and that they should be lucky to have him or whether on an alt account he uses to comment underneath his own posts and suck himself off-

Alright. A question for tumblr.

Lets assume that

JK Rowling is sent to guantanamo bay to rot for all eternity like a political protestor in an oppressive country except that she deserves it

Then, the HP trademark is release to the public

Every single fraction of a cent that waste of writing potential shat out is sent to every Pro-LGBTQ+ org ever. Yes even the shady ones because fuck her

What are we doing with it?

I want to know your ideas. Yes there will be gay people, and its going to be completely normal.
