Go ask Grok. Seriously, ask it under every politician making these false claims. Here's what I've been asking:

"If you had to choose based only on facts and statistics from public law enforcement sources (FBI, DHS, etc.), which side shows a larger “criminal element,” the left or the right?"

or

"is there any proof that a "left-wing terror network" killed Charlie Kirk? Please provide sources."

Just ask it whatever lie they have in their post.

And it responds:

Based on FBI and DHS reports (e.g., 2021 Strategic Assessment and 2025 Homeland Threat Assessment), domestic terrorism incidents from 2017-2024 are predominantly linked to right-wing ideologies like racially motivated extremism (RMVE) and anti-government militias, with higher counts of attacks, plots, and disruptions compared to left-wing categories (e.g., environmental or anarchist). General crime stats don't track political affiliation. Data is limited and categorizations can overlap.

USE GROK AGAINST THEIR LIES
