@Brewjew308 The DOJ is collecting receipts. When there are enough (soon), watch for an appeal to the 11th circuit for a replacement. The circuit already questioned her competency when they ordered her to close the Trump stop-the-investigation case.
@williamlegate Attacking the very people you need to help doesn’t appear to be a great strategy. If he uses his various funds for political and personal reasons, he violates SEC rules.
@Brewjew308 Odd, if Trump’s claim that a President has absolute immunity from crimes is true, then Biden could round up his adversaries and send them to Guantanamo.
@williamlegate It took me some time to understand that it is impossible to have a rational argument with a Republican.
If they were rational, they would not be a Republican.
Never try to teach a pig to sing. You piss off the pig and waste your time.
@williamlegate SCOTUS have ruled commercial speech can be regulated.
Musk is under the impression that the 1st amendment exempts all his actions from the law.
Not sure how he passed the US citizenship exam.
@williamlegate Musk paid $44 bn for a social platform that is harming TESLA. The “woke” people he abhors are the majority of TESLA buyers. From a recent UC study:
“During our time period about half of all EVs went to the 10% most Democratic counties, and about one-third went to the top 5%.”
@williamlegate Data from multiple studies indicate about 40% of US adults cannot tell the difference between fact and fiction. They are immutable in their beliefs.
Good news: There more of us. We need to vote, be counted, and stand tall when. faced with a tyranny of ignorance.
@tribelaw It is easy to leave. First, X is a right wing amplifier for people who essentially wish me and all I hold dear dead. Second, by staying, you keep the demographics desirable for advertiser. Lower the the advertising revenue, the faster the demise.
@boring_as_heck @williamlegate Yaccarino is a great sales leader, and, I suspect, had a large sign on bonus with a hefty severance package.
Problem is that even a great sales person cannot sell toxic drudge to Fortune 1000 companies.
@williamlegate@JetBlue It is amazing how there is large population of cognitively impaired and/or ethically challenged US citizens. They lie dormant until they are triggered by some event or, sadly, encouraged by leaders. Good news: they are not the majority.
@williamlegate Most non-compete clauses restricts the employee from working for a “competitor” for a specified time. The issue is whether twitter is a competitor to Fox news.
The upside is Carlson will make Twitter more toxic to advertisers and users, accelerating the demise Twitter.
@OrinKerr I believe in Kahneman‘s notion that many decisions are made fast, automatic, frequent, emotional, stereotypic, or unconscious.
In other words, they don’t think at all.
@Factschaser I was born and raised in WV. Left 35 years ago for California. Very grateful for my education and the many kindnesses I received from wonderful people in WV.
Still not going back. Hard never.
@MattBinder@williamlegate@dril With matters like wars in Sudan and Ukraine, giobal warning, and authoritarian leaders attempts at controlling our health and education, why care about blue marks?
Musk is like Monty Pythons black night who lost his appendages in battle but believes he can win.
Sad but funny.
