The "investigation" has begun and I think Jamie Raskin put it well.
Quote:

The majority has called a hearing to revisit a two-year-old story about a private editorial decision by Twitter not to allow links to a single New York Post article made for a two-day period that had no discernible influence on anyone or anything” Raskin said. “Instead of letting this trivial pursuit go, my colleagues have tried to whip up a faux scandal about this two-day lapse in their ability to spread Hunter Biden propaganda on a private media platform. Silly does not even begin to capture this obsession.




MTG used her new found platform to cry about how people like her shouldn't be forced to follow the same rules as everyone else and thanked Lord Musk for firing Yoel Roth even though that never happened and then tried to frame him as a pedophile.

Man Roth has amazing composure. She pretty much accused him of being a groomer based on a tweet by Eliza Bleu, who I thought was an actual Twitter employee, but is in fact someone who attached herself to Musk and managed to end up “reforming” a Twitter Trust and Safety. She’s the one who was accessing user files for Bari Weiss and Matt Taibi. She likely was one of the people who was curating files to be released in the Twitter files.

Anyways, a few months back she started making personal attacks on Roth, to the point where Yoth and his boyfriend had to move due to threats. In particular, she made some implied accusations that Roth was a pedophile, based on the fact that he had written a paper arguing that minors should have a space like Grindr but only for minors, as opposed to the current situation where underage kids use grindr and lie about their age. Anyways, it was pretty sleazy.

Eliza Bleu is now the subject of a pretty interesting battle between right wing media figures, some defending her and others led throwing her under the bad after a video was uncovered where she was arguing that children could have sex with adults if the community and the parties consented.  Crazy shit.

Anyways that’s what Greene was referring to.

And yea I’ve buried the lede: the person who Elon Musk has tasked with stamping out child porn on Twitter is an advocate for child/adult sexual relationships. You can’t make this shit up.

She’s also been accused of fabricating her backstory that she’s a survivor of human trafficking, the story that brought her attention in the first place. She’s also accused of banning Twitter users that discuss these stories.

Turns out the GOP has long requested that Twitter censor and ban stories that they don't like, including multiple requests by the trump administration to ban Chrissy Teigen when her husband was "not sufficiently grateful" for the First Step Act.

Republican members of the committee investigating Twitter have floated the idea of arresting former Twitter executives.

Representatives from Twitter today stated openly that Twitter does not enforce their rules about violence evenly, giving GOP members a little bit more leeway.

This is going to be an ugly two years

It really seems like the Twitter employees were trying very hard to be as conscientious as possible. A lot of the communications that the GOP is painting as conspiratorial actually appear to be employees questioning each other about how and when to apply the rules.

I’ve actually gotten or helped to get two accounts suspended for posting pictures of Hunter Biden the past few days. They still have a policy of not allowing photos of people without their consent and they are still enforcing it.

I dunno, it's been pretty funny so far. The GOP is aggressively incompetent, and their least competent members are the ones on stage. I didn't watch most of the SOTU, but seeing bits and clips, I could have sworn that Biden's team coordinated with Marge three name as an audience plant, because her attempts to heckle were...well, like I said. Something I'd see out of an audience plant. Especially when she's wearing a cruella de vil jacket. Like, how much more on the nose could you be?

Then the SHS bloviation about crt and how we must be afraid of *checks notes* school teachers...if this was the plot of a political thriller I'd call it unbelievable.

Actually, decided to rewatch house of cards the other day, and..oof. the naivete.

It was revealed today that Trump threatened Twitter with regulation if they didn’t take down a tweet that called him a “pussy ass bitch”

Well, it is somewhat expected, no? Like, if there's one thing you would expect from a GOP investigation into their political opponents and those that do not properly cup their balls, it's for people to go to prison.

Another Twitter exec told AOC that they explicitly changed their racist content policy to accommodate Trump's tweeting.

Apparently Twitter bent the rules on their policy when it came to racist tweets to accommodate trump. They were all on trump's dick and here their shills are all shitting on Twitter playing a victim game.

No, they didn't just bend the rules, they explicitly changed the rules to allow racist tweets from Trump.

Turns out Steve Bannon plotted with a Chinese businessman to distribute pornographic images off of Hunter Biden's laptop.

Somehow, the NY post didn't take the bait when he offered it to them. But that's how they discovered that the laptop existed: Steve Bannon approached them, asking them to distribute revenge porn about Biden's kid.

This was part of the strategy that Bannon tried to employ to keep Trump in the White house.

Quote:

“We hammered this guy every day for 10 days with the worst pictures in the world, drug addict, taking money from CCP,” Bannon said. “No response. Nothing. And the negatives just keep going up.”

“Nobody came out and said anything you’re saying’s not true,” he added. “Even the wildest allegations.”

“That’s why when people tell me, ‘Lude’s stuff’s getting crazy,’ I go, ‘Not crazy enough,'” Bannon said, drawing laughter from others in the meeting.

Bannon then went a step further: He told Guo’s associates that the lies they generated had allowed Trump to pull close enough that Biden had little chance of scoring a blowout victory. That would help Trump deploy his “strategy” of alleging fraud and declaring victory on election night, even if he was trailing or the race was too close to call. The lies about Hunter Biden, that is, would help Trump lie about the election.

Perhaps most disturbing in hindsight is what Bannon concluded after that. This strategy, he added, would likely result in political violence. “So my point is,” he said, “any peaceful resolution of this [election] is probably gone.”

It's mind boggling the way Musk has created a narrative that he was stamping out child porn, when he fired everyone who was moderating that. At best he transformed Twitter into right-wing extremist friendly. At worst he's a (probably not intentionally, but by omission) a kiddie porn enabler. That shit will always be somewhere on the web, but WTF,s with mainstreaming it?

I mean, it's the exact same logic Trump used when he said that if we stop testing for covid, cases would go down.

I guess same logic with Chinese balloons, too. If we don't notice them, then nothing happened. And the border. If we don't stop them, they never crossed the border.

The Kinks lead guitarist, Dave Davies (brother of frontman Ray Davies) has begged Elon Musk to stop putting a "caution" on any posts related to the Kinks.

Is this because of "Lola" the first hit song overtly dealing with transvestites in 1970 which predated Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side" by a couple years?

Musk says he's going to find somebody to replace him as Twitter CEO very soon.

Here's my prediction; Elon Musk vs Mathew McCaugnhey for President in 2028. The two possibly good things about that is that political parties will be irrelevant, and Musk will lose.

Looks like Trump directed his administration to attempt to get Kimmel removed from the air for making fun of him back in 2018. At least two phone calls were made to Disney, attempting to strong arm the company into firing Jimmy Kimmel.

Further, it appears that Ajit Pai opened an "obscenity" investigation into Stephen Colbert for making fun of Trump in 2017.
