Something weird is going on. Recently I have seen a few allegedly right-wing blue checks on X complaining about Trump. Most of then start with something like, "I voted for <fill in the blank> and I am not getting it". Subjects range from the cost of housing to not seeing enough deportations to...

My wife has used GROK to produce various business documents, like procedures, business continuity documents etc. She take what it produces and then uses it as a starting points. She says it's pretty good but usually needs some fine tuning and additional, more relevant details.

I don't get the reason for banning cameras in this courtroom. But then again, there were cameras in the OJ trial and it turned out to be a clown show with the judge as the ringleader.

He will be a vote against ending the filibuster if it Democrats take control.

No. Cranberry is further south from where I am but this story, which I heard before, is typical of what is happening. The states is mandating the construction of affordable housing units in township all over NJ. The 2024 law expanded earlier laws requiring towns to build even more affordable...

I believe she is correct. We should begin deporting those who do not love America and tolerate freedom of religion. We should end all immigrations from Muslim countries. Sorry. Their 14th century culture cannot coexist with a modern free society.

The idea that we had 5000 FBI agents tracking down trespassers in a nationwide manhunt is pretty frightening.

We definitely need new voting laws. I would like to see us go back to one day in person voting. But there is still room to cheat. We went to new machines in 2024. It is an odd new system. First we check in, no ID required, but signatures are taken and compared to previous signatures. Then we...

Just the beginning. I am surprised they waited until now considering all the high costs of going into NYC now.

Good for Trump, but no one was attempting to overturn the election. They were attempting to uncover what most Americans believe was massive fraud. Questioning the results of an election should not be a crime. It is necessary for the health of any free electoral system., as long as the country...

The way most Democrats are squealing like stuck pigs over this deal, I tend to believe that Democrats didn't get much of anything.

How about shrink the deficit instead and stop borrowing money we don't have?

He makes an interesting point about tariffs. Are tariffs a tax? or are they really an tool for foreign policy?

But the question is, if Republicans did not think Democrats would end the filibuster, would any Republicans support ending the filibuster? If the answer is no, then why not? The answer is because it is the wrong thing to do. The filibuster is another check and balance to ensure congress, or...

This is very suspicious to me because NJ's populations has only increased by about 211,000 people since 2020. That is not enough to explain the high total of votes. And NJ population growth is mostly from immigrations so many of our new residents cannot vote. But as I have been saying, NJ...

I have offered some explanation for this in the past. First, I am in Bergen County and my area in BC went big for Jack. I am surprised by the blue areas in Northwestern NJ because that is very rural with a lot of blue collar workers. The red areas tend to be the wealthier areas of NJ. My...

I saw this but I am not going to accept it until I get better confirmation. So far there has been no word from the DOJ or FBI and there have been so many false accusations on X like this in the past. It is surprising the woman has not made a public statement denying the accusations though...

This idea that billionaire businessmen like Musk or Bezos are somehow doing something immoral or illegal is such a distorted view. No one is forced to shop on Amazon. And in the beginning, Amazon actually struggled to survive. But Bezos stuck it out. He stayed committed to his idea and...

I actually took the time to research this free bus thing. I found out, and this is actually remarkable, that 40-45% of the NYC annual budget or $3.8 billion goes to running the bus system in NYC. 70% to 80% is recovered through fares. That means to offer free buses it would cost the city an...

I think ending the filibuster would be an enormous mistake, whoever ends it. It will create chaos with laws coming and going every time the senate majority changes. I understand the feeling that we should change it now, but it won't matter if we do or don't. Whatever Republicans pass now...
