1. The media turned Robert Hur's amateur assessment of Biden's memory into a political crisis.
Collectively, the @washingtonpost, @nytimes, and @WSJ have run 66 articles quoting Hur: a "well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory"

FYI there’s a fake account on here impersonating me and going viral. The Twitter CEO has engaged it, boosting visibility.
It is releasing false policy statements and gaining spread.
I am assessing with my team how to move forward. In the meantime, be careful of what you see.

If you think this is bad, Jake, wait until you hear what they’re doing to trans people.

Yep, the caucus that lost their minds over the suggestion that they should wear masks during a pandemic to respect the safety of others is now spending its time focusing on the fine details of what women have to wear (specifically how to cover their arms) to show respect here.

4/for @POTUS and his team to use the bully pulpit to frame and lead this national conversation before the opposition gains even more ground. Being cornered into some last minute coinage solution is the stuff of banana republics. Let’s get it together.
