    Jeet Heer Retweeted Texas Attorney General

    I dunno if I were in Texas I might prioritize the fact the cops didn't stop for over an hour a mass shooter killing kids rather than twitter bots but we all have our priorities I guess.https://twitter.com/TXAG/status/1533890772713582593 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Texas Attorney GeneralVerified account @TXAG
    Today I’m investigating Twitter for potentially misleading Texans on the number of its “bot” users. I have a duty to protect Texans if Twitter is misrepresenting how many accounts are fake to drive up their revenue. https://www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/news/releases/ag-paxton-launches-investigation-against-twitter-potentially-deceiving-texas-consumers-texas …

        Tbh if Paxton tried to prioritize the issues of gun violence or the uselessness of cops, he’d just make them worse

        Interesting that Tesla is headquartered in Texas and Twitter bots is a major point of contention for Musk…
