Just to verify something I'd seen here, I posted on X for the first time in over two years to ask its AI bot about the 2020 election.

Grok told me that the election was stolen from Trump.
Here it is. grok, in its clarification to me, essentially says Biden was the certified winner in 2020 but that the election was stolen from Trump.

So X's AI is actively telling users the 2020 election was stolen. This is why I don't post there

The email that’s most newsworthy in my mind is the one that Epstein sent to Ghislaine Maxwell in 2011.

1. This was years before Trump ran for office.

2. It appears that Ghislaine Maxwell lied to DOJ officials during her meeting with them a couple months ago.
