What happens when the community notes feature of Twitter—which is supposed to allow for more truth—does a note that shows Musk is wrong? Elon Musk has the note removed. That is exactly the type of action that is sure to attract advertisers and get people to bank with X.

When President Biden fell, Republicans spent days attacking him. It was heartless and cruel. And speaking of heartless & cruel, while I despise Mitch McConnell with every fiber of my being, I’m not going to attack him for whatever health event he’s going through right now. He’s

I'll tell you this: None of us like Mitch McConnell because of the horrible things he's said and done as Senator. But he had a medical incident today, and I saw a lot of well-wishers on our side. As it should be. But when Senator John Fetterman had a medical episode, there

If Biden did what Mitch did today the media would be covering non stop for the next two weeks. But because it’s a Republican it’s like nothing ever happened. The right wing bias of corporate media is nuts.

Rudy Giuliani has now admitted he lied about the two Georgia election workers. Think about how many people’s lives have been impacted by all of these Trump supporting individuals who’ve been knowingly lying about the 2020 election. The anger, the hate, the threats against
