Let's not forget...Pew Research found that of the fewer than 50 million US adults on Twitter only 6% of those Twitter users account for 73% of tweets about national politics. That means fewer than 1% of Americans are frequently weighing in about politics on this platform.

The Jerusalem Post can now confirm based on verified photos of the bodies that the reports of babies being burnt and decapitated in Hamas's assault on Kfar Aza are correct. May their memory be a blessing.

Six months ago, he asked a colleague—on air—whether she had “mommy brain” when she lost her train of thought. I’m not sure this is a “training issue,” y’all. And once again, CNN going easier on the men who screw up than the women who call it out. Cc @mkhammer

NOT TRUE: Trump's election fraud claims were never truly litigated bc court's just dismissed them on technicalities. This Trump appointed judge in WI held a hearing and allowed the campaign to present any and all evidence they had. They didn't have any.

Free speech does not authorize you to insult, condescend & mock other religious figures & religions. Some people don’t care about their religion but some do. Play a stupid game - you will win a stupid prize. Your call. Some people only want fame no matter the cost/sacrifice.

Once again, the answer to speech you don’t like or think is wrong is more speech. Win the debate. Silencing the other side doesn’t change minds or truth.

Nope. Even if the school advertised the space to allow people/groups to speak at his house, that would be a limited public forum—they could still limit the topics and the time, place, and manner. So, no, none of this was protected by 1st Am. Any law student would know that.

@maxdubler @LittleMammith Ehh it’s a grey area. It was a school-sponsored event that they were invited to. Seems like theres at least an argument that 1A applies, such that youre out of place to be ridiculing them. How many years of law school have you done? Also how does that affect the videod battery?

Let this sink in: The United States will be transferring the office of the president with 21,000 additional national guardsmen from a dozen states in town because there is a legitimate fear that power cannot be transferred peacefully this year.

Of the more than 680 podcasts that have been rated, we are highlighting 64 on August’s static #mediabiaschart . That’s + 2,500 episodes! Why only 64? It would be crowded w/ all 680 on one chart. Good news - there's plenty of space on the interactive one!

At least two members of the Court (Thomas and Gorsuch) are interested in taking on the "public figure" distinction in defamation cases. Gorsuch noting that the "old economic model that supported reporters, fact-checking, and editorial oversight is disappearing."

Dems should have taken Hillary’s mishandling of classified info more seriously and now remember she was never charged despite evidence she violated §793 and committed obstruction. But GOP should be willing to apply the Clinton standard to their guy too.

Their theory has no limiting principle. Why not sanitize Huck Finn's language? Spruce up Elizabeth Bennett's feminism? We lack humility. If the previous generations were wrong, we should learn from them--not pretend they believed as we do.

Very very creepy, Orwellian stuff — “sanitizing” long-published work of microaggression material. Right up there with flat-out book banning.
