    I don’t think Biden has any politica beliefs. Just goes with whatever he thinks will help him politically.

    His record seems to support this. He stands for nothing but personal gain.
    That's why, I suppose, I've seen analysts I trust characterize him as, to paraphrase, "a populist - not left, not right, not anything but catering to whatever voices are loudest and tracking whichever way the winds are blowing."

    I think before the dementia or Alzheimer's became an issue, that the loudest voices were telling Biden to line his own pockets.

    Deal on hold. Musk says emperor has not clothes on.

    ““Twitter deal temporarily on hold pending details supporting calculation that spam/fake accounts do indeed represent less than 5% of users,” Mr. Musk said in a tweet early Friday. He linked to a May 2 Reuters report about a recent Twitter securities filing with those statistics.”

    Because if more than 5% are spam bots and it can be proven Twitter isn't worth what they say it is. He's already overpaying as it is.

    Not just that, but the 5% number was part of a report to the SEC. Lying to the SEC opens the company to investigation and civil money penalties.

    He did say he was still committed to the purchase which is good for us. I bet 20% of all facebook accounts are bots. So twitter saying only 5% of theirs were is pretty funny.

    Seems like this may tie back to the sudden increase in subs for certain right personalities and the strange sudden loss of followers for left personalities. Almost like someone at Twitter thought this might happen and was trying to clean up the mess before dad got home.

    …The woman in that video talking about having "trusted" Twitter users be able to edit the tweets of others? She's in charge of it.
    Which is more retarded the her example of wikipedia as an equivalent feature. There’s a reason wikipedia isn’t an acceptable reference for citations, one of which is the inherently unreliable nature of user-generated, non-peer reviewed content.

    Some people are way too wound up in the shît that spews out of that platform.

    Some people are way too wound up in the idea of controlling what is seen, said, and thought.
