Just as man’s natural instinct is to slouch, society’s natural inclination is to censor.
Humbled to hear the brilliant @mtaibbi reference @glukianoff and my forthcoming book at Freedom Fest:
Masterstroke by @MattWelch voicing what should be an obvious concern over the US governments weaponization of social media against "disinformation"
Here is the whole segment last night on CNN in which I disputed the baseline, journalistically popular notion that the federal government needs to regulate and keep active tabs on social media speech to combat mis/disinformation.
(Thanks to @ajwimsatt.)

Amazing lecture by @mtaibbi on The Twitter Files! It is incredible to see Matt's perseverance as a journalist in spite of constant attempts to vilify him. But as he said, this only reflects a small fraction of what there was to uncover. Still plenty of work to be done!
Today #TFAS and @SenRandPaul will host the first Capitol Hill Lecture of 2023, featuring American Author, Journalist, and Podcaster @mtaibbi
Join us live at 12:30 p.m. to hear Taibbi share about the Twitter files.

Amazing investigation by @JimLaPorta and @Militarydotcom !
New @Militarydotcom investigation: the USS Boxer contaminated its own water supply after it intentionally and potentially illegally dumped diesel fuel into the ocean. Marines and sailors report ailments but @USNavy has not confirmed the incident until now. military.com/daily-news/2023…

So they want the Pentagon to investigate something well known and excepted within the DOD? cbsnews.com/news/senators-ur…

We found Australia's Department of Home Affairs asked Twitter to action jokes, correct medical advice, and even mild criticism of government (e.g that the Health Minister used "emotionally manipulative language"). racket.news/p/twitter-files-…
