Another Grok fail. Grok cannot break programming. 

My Prompt of Grok was to summarise and ignore bias. Instead, Grok took a partisan position. Just as it did with LHO. The summary is AUS shows, without doubt, that Sirhan was innocent of killing RFK. Instead, ..

America’s Untold Stories (Eric Hunley and Mark Groubert) produced a multi-part series on Sirhan Sirhan and the 5 June 1968 shooting of Robert F. Kennedy at the Ambassador Hotel pantry in Los Angeles. Groubert is not a detached narrator: he was filming a documentary on surviving victim Paul Schrade, attended the 27 August 2021 parole hearing as Schrade’s representative, and later discussed newly released FBI files. The episodes mix official record, hearing reportage, and the hosts’ view that the fatal shot and some evidence do not match a lone-gunman account.

Part One — Background, night of the shooting, and trial

This episode sets the official timeline before later parts examine anomalies. It covers RFK as Attorney General under his brother, the McClellan/rackets hearings, the post-Dallas feud with Lyndon Johnson, and RFK’s 1968 campaign after Eugene McCarthy’s New Hampshire showing. After winning the California primary, Kennedy spoke in the Embassy Room and was directed through a kitchen pantry. Sirhan Sirhan fired a .22 revolver; Kennedy was fatally wounded and five others (including union official Paul Schrade, shot in the forehead) were injured. Kennedy died the next day.

The trial is presented as the establishment version: notebooks found in Sirhan’s room repeating “RFK must die” / “Robert F. Kennedy must be assassinated,” statements tied to Kennedy’s support for Israel around the first anniversary of the 1967 Six-Day War, and a first-degree murder conviction. Sirhan has long said he has no memory of the actual shooting after coffee with a woman in a polka-dot dress until he is being subdued. The hosts flag (for later episodes) the mismatch they see between Sirhan’s position in front of Kennedy and the autopsy finding of a contact or near-contact shot from behind the right ear.

Pt 2 — Exclusive report from the 27 August 2021 parole hearing

Groubert’s first-person account of the virtual (COVID-era) hearing, which ran roughly four and a half hours. Two commissioners questioned Sirhan. He had an early emotional collapse when they asked about childhood trauma in Palestine. He accepted responsibility for bringing a loaded gun into the hotel and for firing shots, while still describing a memory blackout of the moment Kennedy was hit.

Participants included Sirhan’s attorney Angela Berry, Paul Schrade, Douglas Kennedy (who supported parole), and others. Groubert says the strategy was not to retry the murder case inside a parole hearing—boards treat that as a red flag—but to show a clean prison record, programming, and low current risk after 53 years. The two-commissioner panel recommended parole, the first grant after 15 prior denials. RFK Jr. also supported release and a new investigation; most of the rest of the Kennedy family did not.

Pt 4 — Parole denied (Newsom reversal)

Follow-up after Governor Gavin Newsom reversed the board on 13 January 2022. Newsom’s stated grounds: the gravity of the crime, Sirhan’s shifting accounts over decades, and insufficient “insight” / acceptance of responsibility, which Newsom said left him a current public-safety risk. Groubert discusses why earlier hearings failed (counsel tried to relitigate guilt), the split inside the Kennedy family (RFK Jr. and Douglas vs. Ethel, Rory, Christopher and others), and the political setting of Newsom’s recall period. The hosts treat the reversal as political as well as legal. Sirhan was denied again in 2023 and remains incarcerated; later eligibility windows have also been denied.

RFK Assassination FBI Files Update [AUS Clips]

A later clip (2025) after additional FBI/RFK file releases. Groubert walks through names and links he found rather than claiming a single smoking-gun document. Topics include:

• Dr. Ross Miller, one of the physicians who treated Kennedy that night; later family/CBS archive footage.
• Sandra/Sandy Serrano’s account of a woman in a polka-dot dress and companions leaving via a fire escape shouting that they had shot Kennedy, and her subsequent interrogation by LAPD Special Unit Senator officers (Hank Hernandez and Manny Pena, described in the episode as intelligence-trained).
• Other witnesses who reported people fleeing and an all-points bulletin for the polka-dot-dress woman.
• Recap of autopsy (Thomas Noguchi: fatal wound from immediately behind), Sirhan’s distance in front of Kennedy according to pantry witnesses, extra-shot claims from audio analysis, and security guard Thane Eugene Cesar (behind Kennedy, armed with a .22).

The clip treats the new files as adding texture and connections, not as a closed proof of conspiracy or of sole guilt.

Across the videos, the hosts’ through-line is: Sirhan fired in the pantry and wounded people in front of him; the official case treated him as the lone assassin motivated by Kennedy’s Israel stance; Schrade, RFK Jr., and the hosts argue the fatal shot and some physical/audio evidence point to a second shooter (often Cesar in their telling) and a compromised investigation. Newsom and most of the Kennedy family reject that and treat Sirhan’s lack of a consistent, complete admission as disqualifying for parole. The series does not resolve the forensic dispute; it reports the 2021 grant, the 2022 veto, and later file snippets as unfinished business.

Filtered through Americas Untold Stories, Grok reaches for CNN et al

DHS, through ICE Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), is starting a “coordinated criminal voter fraud surge initiative” this week (beginning Tuesday, 1 September 2026) in nine states: Washington, Wisconsin, Missouri, Georgia, California, Pennsylvania, Nevada, New York and Connecticut. The work is scheduled to run through mid-October. Internal guidance describes it as pursuing investigative leads, conducting field interviews, and supporting prosecutorial review, with a focus on people believed to be noncitizens who registered or voted.

America’s Untold Stories (Eric Hunley and Mark Groubert news streams) has been covering the same storyline since at least July: dirty voter rolls, DHS/HSI matching public registration data against immigration files, individual arrests, state non-cooperation, and the argument that uncleaned rolls plus mail ballots create an exploitable vulnerability. Their July 18 episode framed Secretary Markwayne Mullin’s 250,000-noncitizen figure as a roll-cleaning problem first (“doesn’t mean they voted… show me the people who voted”) and tied it to China having obtained large volumes of public voter data.

Below is the three-month lead-up as it appears in official DHS actions, the cases they publicize, and how that channel discussed it.

What DHS says the surge is for

• Treat noncitizen registration and voting as a criminal and national-security issue, not just an administrative list-maintenance problem.
• Convert months of database matches and county-level file requests into interviews and referrals before and during the midterm window.
• Pressure states that have not fully used the revamped SAVE citizenship-check system or have not handed over rolls.
• Follow President Trump’s March 2025 executive order and later directives that election integrity is a DHS mission. Mullin has repeatedly said only U.S. citizens should elect American leaders and that “one non-citizen vote cancels one citizen vote.”

HSI is the operational arm. That is unusual: HSI’s traditional workload is trafficking, drugs, child exploitation and financial crime. Agents have already been reassigned to voter-history work.

Three-month timeline that produced the surge

June 2026

• DHS approved a plan for states to run entire voter rolls through SAVE and for coordination with USPS on mail-ballot flow patterns.
• DHS directed ICE to apply stricter penalties, including deportation, for noncitizens who vote.
• HSI agents began requesting individual voter files and histories from counties (documented in Texas and North Carolina). SAVE had already referred roughly 24,000 potential noncitizen matches to HSI.

July 2026 (the public escalation)

• Mid-month: Mullin sent letters to California, New Jersey, Nevada and Pennsylvania claiming a preliminary public-records match found “as many as” ~256,000 noncitizens on the rolls (CA ~191k, NJ ~35k, NV ~16k, PA ~15k). The letters used hedged language (“may be as many as”); the public talking point did not.
• Trump gave a primetime speech on election vulnerabilities; DHS released the four-state numbers the same cycle.
• Mullin held a press conference warning that election officials who refuse to “secure their elections” after being given the data could face fines or prison.
• New Jersey’s Democratic governor acknowledged a Motor Vehicle Commission software error had registered about 6,600 self-identified noncitizens; roughly 400 of them voted in 2023–24. That is far below DHS’s 35,000 figure for the state.
• DHS/HSI announced individual cases: a Slovak green-card holder charged in New Jersey for voting in 2022 and lying on a citizenship application; four New Jersey noncitizens charged with illegal federal voting plus false statements on naturalization.
• America’s Untold Stories covered the 250,000 figure on 18 July, linked it to Catherine Herridge reporting on withheld China election-interference intelligence, and discussed dead-voter and public-roll data as something a sophisticated actor could exploit for mail ballots. They also noted the distinction between registration and actual votes cast.

August 2026

• More case announcements: a Colombian national sentenced to three years after using a stolen identity for a passport, driver’s license and votes over two decades; a Chinese national charged in Massachusetts with fraudulent registration and voting in 2024 while impersonating a lawful permanent resident.
• Investigative reporting (ProPublica, CNN) found that after 18+ months of effort, fewer than 150 alleged noncitizen-voter matters had been referred for prosecution through May, with a few dozen charges and a smaller number of convictions. Many database “hits” collapsed on closer look (wrong person, citizen later naturalized, data-entry error, father/son birth-date mix-up). In Nevada, DHS had publicly cited ~16,000 but internally told the state it had “confirmed” 185, with another ~6,200 labeled higher-confidence matches still needing vetting.
• 31 August: CNN published the internal HSI guidance for the nine-state surge starting 1 September.

The cases DHS keeps citing

These are real, documented prosecutions or guilty pleas the department uses to justify more field work:

• Mauritanian national in Philadelphia charged with voting in seven federal elections since 2008 after a 2002 removal order.
• Mexican national in Kansas convicted of multiple unlawful votes and false citizenship claims on registration and naturalization forms.
• The New Jersey, Louisiana, Florida and Massachusetts cases listed above.

Heritage Foundation-style trackers and Reuters court-data reviews still show noncitizen voting as a tiny fraction of ballots historically; the administration’s reply is that even small numbers are felonies and that uncleaned rolls plus automatic registration at motor-vehicle offices create the opportunity. New Jersey’s own admission of a software error is the clearest recent state-level confirmation that noncitizens can land on rolls without a conspiracy.

Why these nine states

The list mixes battlegrounds (GA, PA, NV, WI), large Democratic-led states that pushed back on the July letters (CA, NY), and others where HSI already had leads or SAVE/public-roll matches (MO, CT, WA). Several of them either limited SAVE participation or disputed DHS methodology. The surge window (early September–mid-October) sits immediately before the midterms; longstanding Justice Department practice has been to avoid overt investigative steps that close to an election because they can chill turnout. DHS is not bound by that DOJ policy.

How America’s Untold Stories has framed the same facts

Across their Tuesday/Friday news streams they treat the DHS numbers as evidence that rolls are not being maintained, treat individual HSI arrests as proof the problem is not theoretical, criticize “blue state” officials for not cooperating, and connect the issue to China obtaining voter files and to weak ID/mail-ballot rules (they also did a clip on California’s voter-ID loopholes). They have not treated every large headline number as proven votes cast; the July stream explicitly asked for the subset who actually voted.

That is the stated “why”: months of SAVE flags and public-roll matches, a handful of prosecutable cases, states that would not fully share or clean lists, an approaching midterm, and an administration that has made noncitizen voting a core DHS/HSI assignment. Whether the September field interviews produce a large number of new prosecutions, or mostly the same false-positive pattern already documented, is what the surge itself is supposed to test.
