The term “grok” is probably best explained by the Greek word “ginóskó.”
"Elon Musk says Grok will soon be able to read the omnibus bills Congress likes to make and summarize them so politicians can't hide stuff from us"
Using Grok to flag unconstitutional parts of omnibus bills, especially unconstitutional spending, is probably to much to ask for.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
“ If the tax be not proposed for the common defence, or general welfare, but for other objects, wholly extraneous, (as for instance, for propagating Mahometanism among the Turks, or giving aids and subsidies to a foreign nation, to build palaces for its kings, or erect monuments to its heroes,) it would be wholly indefensible upon constitutional principles [emphases added].” — Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833).
From the congressional record:
”Simply this, that the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Constitution, is in the States and not in the federal government [emphases added]. I have sought to effect no change in that respect in the Constitution of the country.” —John Bingham, Congressional. Globe. 1866, page 1292 (see top half of third column)
A basic question that Grok needs to answer is this. How many omnibus spending bills are needed to efficiently run the peacetime US Mail Service, one of the very few powers that the states have expressly constitutional given to Congress to dictate domestic policy? (Most federal domestic policy is based on stolen state powers imo.)
"Article I, Section 8, Clause 7: To establish Post Offices and post Roads;"
"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.
I say none, no omnibus spending bills needed. (I answered the question for Grok, so Grok is off the hook.)
Block grant money to the states.
Return most of DC to Maryland.
And, we can trust this one...how?
Depends on WHO PROGRAMS GROK!
Thank God for Elon.
The summation will be: The taxes are too high!!!
Cut lots of spending instead.
90% of them can be summarized with ‘more spending on stupid shit designed to enrich some politician or left wing cause’.
The Dems and RINOs will simply cut the interval between release of the 3000 pages of text to voting, to a matter of seconds if need be. Grok will have to be able to create very short summaries in just a few seconds that can be read and understood almost instantly.
But all this effort is ultimately doomed regardless. If the scumbags have to they will cut the time to milliseconds. Congress critters won’t even have time to hear the full name of the bill before voting happens. Whatever it takes to maintain dirty business as usual.
Of-course, pols will use AI to write or edit bills to hide pork, and confound Grok.
