The pilfering, however, is selective. On articles in Wikipedia's "controversial topics" bucket, the differences are far greater.
And that's where Grokipedia disproportionately adds low-quality sources, including Stormfront and InfoWars.

He has his tendrils in our government, sucking up public funds and turning around to buy our leaders.

We’re going to have to beef up antitrust laws and end the consumer welfare standard to go after Big Tech.
We’re going to have to impose strict limits on political spending and overhaul the SCOTUS.
It’s not about punishing wealth. It’s that we can either have trillionaires or we can have democracy.

Is there anyone anywhere who doesn't understand that Trump, who was a close friend of Epstein, is involved in this? How much more evidence do people need? The big question is how did such a massive cover up go on for so long? They knew about it, they enabled it, they profited from it.
