Today on the Morning Update, the SPLC interim Grand Poobah had to defend his organization before Congress, and while it’s galling that the SPLC funded hate and profited from that, and put groups like Moms for Liberty on the Hate Map, it’s not what they did, but how they did it. Watch on the ‘Grok … Read more
In the midst of unprecedented national division, Republicans and Democrats have apparently found something upon which they agree: that US moral values are “poor.” A May 1-17 Gallup survey offered a sobering assessment of Americans’ negative views of their country’s moral trajectory. For Better or Worse Gallup reported a 12-percentage-point increase (to 56%) from last … Read more
I have been writing a daily political opinion article for over 5 years, nearly 2,000 consecutive days, and I have received a fair share of criticism. I can handle criticism, as that is what fuels conversation and debate. I have said from my first article that my purpose was not to profess I had all … Read more

So, what do people think about Iran despite that issue? Gallup polled some folks, and the results were surprising. 00:00 Iran as a Threat to Stability01:45 … Read more
If you listen to the words of Democrats, you would think they all still dress in the garb they wore the day ‘we’ signed the Declaration of Independence. You would think they not only read and understood the Constitution, but also sat with James Madison and contributed to its writing. Their actions, however, are quite … Read more
The “wolf, sheep, and sheepdog” analogy was popularized by military psychologist Lt. Col. Dave Grossman in his book “On Combat” and was brought to the mainstream in the film “American Sniper.” The concept divides the human population into three distinct archetypes based on their relationship to violence and their capacity to act as protectors. The … Read more
Seattle, the city, has become a crazy homeless person. I know, Seattle, again, yes. Every poster child for democrat rule needs to have its dirty laundry aired so the so-called middle, filled with moderate, independent voters, understands. There’s no coming back from what Democrats will do and ignore what they say because there are numerous … Read more
Author: (laughing as Claude is getting settled into the booth) Hey, buddy! You’re late today! What were you up to, huh? I can sort of picture you giving Waymo passengers the ride of their literal lives, or arresting some innocent schlunk, or maybe, better yet, having a half-billion-dollar token bonfire! You can tell me! I … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, are we looking at more 4D chess? FISA Section 702, which was used to spy on Trump’s campaign as part of the fake Steele Dossier and RussiaGate treason, expires on June 12th. Democrats and RINOs in the Senate refused to reauthorize it over this. Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel … Read more
On January 7, President Trump issued a memorandum for the heads of executive departments and agencies ordering them to withdraw from using public funds that support international organizations with interests contrary to the U.S. ( 31 UN entities).

This week, on GrokTALK!, let’s revisit the decline of free speech in western Democracies with a focus on the latest nonsense in the not-so-United Kingdom. Lessons we need to learn, and things we must watch out for, because globalist progressives all want the same thing, and that’s to find ways to get people to self-censor. … Read more

Today, on your Morning Update, we celebrate the 26th birthday of “your kids won’t know snow,” with some good news for snow and a reminder why it doesn’t matter how much or how little snow we get. This Climate thing has nothing to do with the weather. I’m a bit sleepy and hoarse in this … Read more
Much controversy has surrounded the May 18 announcement by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of proposed rule changes to Biden administration regulations that direct the cleanup of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, in Americans’ drinking water.

In a speech given on April 15 at the University of Texas, to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Justice Clarence Thomas explained the meaning of formal equality before the law, saying: Despite the multiplicity of laws and customs that reeked of bigotry, it was universally believed among those blacks with whom I … Read more
How many times and how much longer will we be writing stories about Al Sharpton? The difference between Al and Black Lives Matter and Jussie Smollett is that we recognized early on that BLM and Smollett were shams looking to benefit from the hysteria created whenever the scourge of racism is brought out of storage. … Read more
One of President Sleepy Joe’s last-minute Autopen pardon recipients, a narcotics dealer, just got arrested in Vermont…for dealing hardcore narcotics! The case reveals the travesty not just of Biden’s unpardonable pardons, but the death and destruction wrought by Democrat policies that are soft on crime and hard on public safety. Todd “Rocky” Jarvis was one … Read more
Two recent themes just collided in what passes for my headspace and blog-space. New York, which attracts attention because I lived there for the younger part of my life. The first thirty years, minus a few. I had the good sense to bail back in 1990, and I’ve lived in New Hampshire for the past … Read more
