The Nazi take-over of Twitter is going much faster than you realize.
Twitter has suspended probably the first & longest-running blogger, economist Dean Baker. He's co-founder of the Center for Economic and Policy Research & his "Beat the Press" blog started in the 1990s.
They party, they rage, they kick ass - and they're back to save the world! #TheLegendofVoxMachina returns for an action-packed season 2, January 20th, exclusively on @PrimeVideo.
Starbucks makes millions of dollars each year in unused gift card money from phantom customers. This year, tell Starbucks no contract, no gift cards. #NoContractNoGiftCards
Here are the sources, in chronological order, from the outrageous New York Times story trying to convince the public that there is a "shortage" (the paper's word) of police officers in New York City, and in the United States generally:
So tomorrow on @pivotpod, I posit a theory about why Musk has become so performative with his right-wing dog whistle tweets on Fauci, libs, wokeness, as well as his pushing out the Twitter Files as if he were Woodward & Bernstein: Maybe he’s building a new kind of media company.
There seems to be little limit to Elon Musk's predatory and malevolent nature. He is now insinuating that the fmr head of Trust & Safety at Twitter, an openly gay Jewish man, is a pedophile. Just another level of this is that Roth actually stayed on for several weeks under Musk..
News Analysis: Elon Musk has tweeted about political topics regularly since taking over Twitter, often belittling some liberal causes. But what he stands for remains largely unclear. https://nyti.ms/3iWE23i

man it’s just all trump dynamics. just a dude and dude underlings tweeting wrong or misleading stuff, spinning a distorted or wrong narrative for people and so many others trying v hard to call bullshit or point out hypocrisy but the intended audience doesn’t care a lick. wheeeee
The House just passed an $858,000,000,000 defense bill and not a single person, nor the media, asked “how are we going to pay for it?”
When it’s time fund programs that help poor people, we hear that question from Dems, the GOP, & pundits in the corporate media.
My grandfather, who has been doing the NYT crossword nearly every day since the Eisenhower administration, will not be doing it tomorrow in solidarity with me, and over 1100 of my colleagues as we fight for a fair contract.
Stand with us on the digital picket line!

We’re asking readers to stand with us on the digital picket line and not visit any NYT platforms tomorrow. Read local news. Make something from a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.
NEW: Ads from roughly 40 brands, including Amazon, Uber and Snap, are appearing on white nationalist pages after Elon Musk granted amnesty to previously suspended Twitter accounts. The inadvertant placement of brand ads is fallout from new amnesty policy.
My latest: there is a killer, or maybe more than one, stalking gay bars in NYC. At least 2 men were drugged, robbed using their phone’s facial recognition tech, and killed.
More survived similar attacks, most recently on Nov 12. I spoke to 6 survivors.
Guaranteeing 7 paid sick days to rail workers would cost the rail industry a grand total of $321 million a year – less than 2% of its profits. Please don't tell me the rail industry can't afford it. Rail companies spent $25.5 billion on stock buybacks and dividends this year.
