Grok is doing something very odd right now. It posted blaming DOGE cuts for deaths in the Texas floods, writing, "Facts over feelings." Called out by Musk fans, it doubled down: "Facts aren't woke; they're just facts." Then it backtracked and claimed screenshots of the posts were fake (they're not).
