Wow @marcorubio straight lied about the admin’s biggest donor’s complicity in the murder of Ukrainian children
BREAKING WSJ:
Elon Musk ordered the slowdown of the military-grade version of Starlink that Ukraine relied on.

Blood clots have NOT statistically changed since Covid vaccines in either the NFL or NBA according to injury reports and searchable records.
Sorry to ruin some narratives but the data says no change

If this is accurate, Elon lied about not having control over Starshield, and he lied about the administration making the decision.
More importantly, why is a private citizen even *able* to make decisions that could hinder US military operations?
Incredible scoop by my @WSJ colleagues: Elon Musk ordered the slowdown of a military-grade version of Starlink relied on by Ukraine, a decision that sparked panic in Kyiv and confusion inside the Trump administration. wsj.com/world/ukraine-starli…

Every single person I’ve seen complain about TV ratings for the World Series has come from one fan base

The world’s first trillionaire is using his taxpayer-subsidized company to intercede into a foreign war against the U.S.’s expressed ally.
Any accountability agenda that doesn’t start with Musk behind bars falls short imo

This is the same thing Meta said recently when it "accidentally" prevented Bolsonaro's opponent from running campaign ads just before the election. I'm sure it's just a coincidence that these "accidents" always hurt the left and benefit the far-right.
We have continued to dig into the root cause here and would like to offer an update.
Our engineering team discovered that the spike that triggered the incorrect enforcement was primarily in the account’s “reading” behavior. Specifically, our network security systems detected the use of a Claude tool reading profiles, posts, and hashtags, the rate of which sharply increased (~4x volume) in intense bursts on October 17.
These abrupt, high-volume, sequential requests in a short period resembled automated bot traffic rather than an ordinary human browsing our systems. This activity caused our automated protections to incorrectly take the No Kings Instagram account offline. An automated re-review of the removal action an hour later recognized that shouldn’t have happened and restored the account. It unfortunately took additional time for us to straighten out the situation with admin access to the IG account.
We want to reiterate our sincere apology for the error.

Since 2013…
1,208 children have been shot at school.
0 children have received gender reassignment surgery at school.
We've turned imaginary issues into national emergencies while turning a blind eye to real threats.

If you’re seeing a lot of posts saying that Russia isn’t America’s enemy, that Putin wants peace, and that Zelensky’s a dictator who’s causing the high gas/diesel prices in the US, congrats; Elon’s algorithm has you pegged as a monumentally stupid and gullible fucking moron.

A new trend has emerged. Stupid people pretending a 2021 vaccine caused a blood clot 5 years later.
These people are all allowed to vote. That’s scary

Welcome to the United States of America, where financially supporting Israel is considered "patriotic" and "necessary aid", but financially supporting Americans is considered "socialism".

In the next week, you’ll hear way too much about small markets and TV ratings. Give it a rest and appreciate this:

This admin recently stripped away the ability from Americans to borrow enough student loan money to get a nursing degree
& now they’re whining about their own actions & the crisis they’ve caused?
RFK Jr. warns that a nationwide shortage of more than 50,000 nurses has become a healthcare crisis, hitting rural America especially hard.
Now, HHS is taking action to address the shortage and strengthen healthcare in underserved communities.
“Nurses here in Virginia, there is a deficit of 1,700 nurses.”
“Across the country, it’s over 50,000.”
“It is a genuine health crisis, particularly in rural areas.”
“It’s a priority for the president. We’re addressing it.”
“You’re going to hear a series of announcements over the next couple of weeks, but we’re already addressing this through expanded rural residencies and federally qualified health centers.”

Donald Trump aligned himself with evangelicals because he knew they’d overlook pedophilia, adultery, racism, cruelty, and corruption.

I don’t understand why farmers need an endless series of welfare payments from the rest of us since Trump took office. Aren’t his policies working for you? You need us to pay you so you will keep voting for the guy who is failing you? Don’t you believe in free market capitalism?

One thing I've learned the hard way is that the U.S. and a good percentage of its populace not only doesn't learn from things that have been successful in other countries, but in many cases badly fears them.
