Old enough to remember when Trump HHS Secretary Tom Price was hounded into resignation for taking 24 flights on private planes. Politico spent literally months investigating Price. Pretty amazing the lack of curiosity into Mayor Pete's very similar travel habits.

The strongest argument against free speech on Twitter has two parts. 1) It’s private and so not bound by 1A. 2) There is a higher standard that could limit the downside of free speech on Twitter. *It fails when the executive branch takes an interestβ€”1A now applies directly.*

Seems like is matching the ad revenue loss with the savings in cutting bloated unnecessary personnel departments at Twitter.

Yesterday was my last day at Twitter: the entire Human Rights team has been cut from the company. I am enormously proud of the work we did to implement the UN Guiding Principles on Business & Human Rights, to protect those at-risk in global conflicts & crises including Ethiopia,

I hope you’re all well. I’ve been doing a lot of writing while away from this website. Very excited for tomorrow’s announcement about that. And I’m sorry for blocking comments. It’s just I’m told some unpleasant people have joined Twitter since I was last here. I know, right?

Interesting thing is happening. All the blue areas shut businesses down for Covid and causing them to go out of business hurting their tax base. Now, to make up for their incompetence, they are going after all the people who have a "home office" for local business taxes.
