This week, on GrokTALK!, we share a great piece by Michal Doran at Tablet Mag, fisking and debunking the Left’s “Iran myths” and Mr. Maggie Goodlander (Jake Sullivan’s) left-wing approved disinformation campaign. There was a plan, and it’s clear as day if you aren’t befuddled by your TDS. We lay it out, follow Doran’s logic … Read more
I am responsible for a flurry of recent content on wealth taxes. Rich Democrats like to play class warfare games, using emotion, envy, not of them, but of the other rich people. It’s an easy move, though not typically as effective in America, but it has found more traction on the left thanks to years … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, as the midterms loom, it is more important than ever to understand that the Left’s COVID tyranny and the deployment of the so-called vaccines weren’t some one-time flex. That era didn’t create its model for one-party rule; it exposed it. [Transcript provided below] Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel if … Read more
Many Vermont Democrats are giddy over the prospect of a genuinely competitive opponent to take on Phil Scott for the first time in 10 years: Aly Richards. All I can say is, it’s cute that you think that. While I’ll buy that Richards is likely to put up a better show than Esther Charlestin or … Read more
Maine missed the message, but that’s okay; it probably can’t get there from here. Americans, including some who live in blue states, are rejecting rank choice voting. I know, they call it ranked, but I call it rank, because it stinks. I know that because lots of Democrats want it, which means it is bad … Read more
I was in front of the laptop at 1:30 this morning, trying desperately to make some sense out of all the thoughts racing through my head. I was not succeeding. I was debating with myself, and losing terribly, about the purpose of government in my life and whether it has helped me or held me … Read more
This is rich, very, very, rich. The Party and the people who have held Four-Letter Vigils, excoriating President Donald Trump and telling him what he could do to himself as he is walking out the door, are now offended when that same President uses the identical fourth-grade, locker-room vocabulary on the greatest terrorists in the … Read more
Once Again Progressives Deliver The Opposite of What They Advertise
Ray wrote a post earlier that mentioned the not-so-honorable “chief” high-cheekbones Warren. She’s your typical nutjob Dem who will be in the Senate until she dies of old age. Being an AWFL with TDS ensures she will outlive almost everyone else, so we’re stuck with her and her priorities. I have the privilege of living … Read more
How a non-vote exposed the Democrats’ true attitudes regarding the housing crisis When new Vermont House members receive their orientation to how things work in the legislature, one point of etiquette driven home is that it’s not good form to spring amendments to bills onto the floor without a healthy heads up. “No surprises,” goes … Read more
The Left has found an alternative to the old-fashioned rose-colored glasses of optimism. The new version is the smokey-gray colored glasses of cynicism and pure hatred. This new relationship phase that has come about with the ever-widening divide between the Left and Right goes far beyond the tongue-in-cheek chatter about Trump Derangement Syndrome. TDS started … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, another nail in the Dems’ so-called affordability narrative coffin. The culprit. Democrats, blue states, and how they can’t help being the crooks that they are. Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel if the embedded video does not load. Ep. 142 links Authors’ and Speakers’ opinions are their own and may … Read more
A funny thing happened on the way to the California Gubernatorial Debate. It had to be canceled. Why, with ten candidates vying to be the top two contenders for the office, would they cancel that debate? There are ten candidates. The Local ABC affiliate is hosting, along with the University of Southern California (USC). The … Read more
Welp…. Looks like the Democratic Socialists in Vermont learned nothing from the 2024 election that saw massive public opposition to their Clean Heat Carbon Tax, which played a starring role in the shellacking they took the hands of the voters. Today the House Democrats voted near party line (by my count only four broke ranks) … Read more
Despite cultural advances in our direction on Campuses and in the corporate world, at least on paper, there is still a lot of work to be done on the question of whether men can be women and women men. Not biologically – they can’t, but the far left is obsessed and unwilling to let this … Read more
Wasting some time on MS Now this morning gave me a dose of Mika, sitting and bobbing her head; Mike Barnicle, who, like Biden, made a career out of plagiarism; and Cory Booker, who has turned his career into video clips and sound bites. It is not a question of why the network is cutting … Read more
It’s no secret that our country is deeply divided today. One side applauds our president and his efforts to keep our citizens safe and make our country stronger. But the president’s opponents despise everything about him, his administration, and his policies. They bitterly resist everything he stands for. It’s not the first time that America’s … Read more
I read the Vermont Democrats’ post-mortem report following their 2024 election debacle, in which Republicans picked up 19 House seats, 6 Senate seats, and the lieutenant governorship (the first time an incumbent LTG was ousted from office since 1815), ending their supermajority status in both chambers. The key insight in the document leaves me wondering … Read more
I have admitted my mistake or misjudgement enough times, but one more may be in order. I thought it was a travesty when John Fetterman ran for the Senate to represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and that was before he had a stroke. I saw him as an uneducated individual who had little respect for … Read more
Anyone running from the left, no matter how far they have to go to pretend to be in the middle, should be roundly mocked. Forced to answer for the likes of Spangerger in Virginia and Mamdani in New York. They claim to be like you. To care for your interests. To defend you from [insert … Read more
