If the Federal Elections Commission @FEC was worth a damn, they would have some serious questions regarding this hire by the Biden campaign, such as but not limited to:
1) How long has this individual been in contact with the Biden campaign and the Democrat party?
2) What influence and/or authority did they have on Twitter's actions towards Donald Trump's and other prominent politically active conservatives' accounts?
3) How long was the overlap time between the initial contact about the job and this announcement?
4) What communications occurred between the Biden campaign/the Democrats and this individual in regards to his then-current role with Twitter? Were there actions requested by the Dems of this individual?
5) Were any actions by this individual at Twitter in exchange for the job?
Basic questions like that.
Which I assume means the @FEC won't bother to look into this blatant in-kind donation in which an individual within a social media giant hosting both candidate's most far reaching online presences sabotaged one while seeking a job with the other.

I’mma channel my spirit animal @Peoples_Pundit and do a thread in why I’ve been giggling like a madman the past few weeks. Polls. Specifically, dumb polls. Specifically, WHY these Harris-favoring polls seem *rather dumb*.
ERMAGERD AN EMERSON COLLEGE POLL THAT HAS HARRIS WINNING BY 4.
People. Emerson College is part of the polling industry mafia. That they were showing trump up over Biden was just because they were part of the pack that were forced to go along with the very obvious trends.
Observe the polling from September and October of last year when the Trump edge over Biden was becoming apparent. Emerson was right there with Susquehanna, NYT/Siena, etc trying to put their thumb on the scales of the aggregate.
Basically, the entire Khashoggi story was hyped up by Turkey claiming that a recording of Khashoggi's murder in the embassy was caught on his apple watch and transmitted to his iphone that his girlfriend waiting outside had. This was accentuated by the MSM hyping up his watch.
Then, of course, I and several other people pointed out that Turkey's networks weren't compatible with the model of apple watch. Literally, it couldn't connect to Turkish cell networks. Suddenly, it became, "Oh, experts are skeptical, but we still totally know the Saudis did it."
Most of what I write isn't understood by most of the people who read it.
That's fine. I don't actually like most of the people who read my stuff. They're reactionary in the most reflexive and knee jerk sense, they're stubborn in ignorance, and they're far too trusting.
This isn't for them.
I can't even say who this is for because I don't know who's going to understand what I'm writing, and if they do then it would be unlikely and unwise of them to respond saying they do. That's fine. I think I truly understand where Thomas is coming from now. I'm doing this for me.
I despise you. I cant fucking stand you. You are the reason the McRib is never a permanent part of the McDonalds menu. You are the reason Sechuan sauce has never been brought back. You are appendix cancer. You are HIV personified.
“Here’s a troubling trend about how millennials started killing themselves.”
“LEL I BET IT WAS EMO MUSIC!”
Yes, clearly, there is NO COVARIANCE BETWEEN A GENERATION PRONE TO SUICIDE AND A SUBCULTURE UNIQUE TO THAT GENERATION THAT EPITOMIZED NIHILISM. NO COVARIANCE AT ALL. MHMM.
Every grave of a kid that died from substance abuse or suicide that isnt emo is a giant middle fonger to fucktards like you.
And no. It WASNT social media either you fucking larva brained imbeciles. This trend started two years BEFORE myspace’s heyday.
All the while I have been forgetting the third of my reasons for remaining so faithful a citizen of the Federation, despite all the lascivious inducements from expatriates to follow them beyond the seas, and all the surly suggestions from patriots that I succumb.
It is the reason which grows out of my mediaeval but unashamed taste for the bizarre and indelicate, my congenital weakness for comedy of the grosser varieties. The United States, to my eye, is incomparably the greatest show on earth.
To air a grievance implies it hasn’t already been made known.
The complaints have been spoken, repeatedly. The problem isn’t that they aren’t being spoken. It’s that they aren’t being listened to.
This is not an age of heroes.
This is not an age of legends.
There does not exist a desire to engage in acts of valor and endurance. The concept of true valor and endurance does not exist, it is not conceivable anymore.
There are no secret plans. There are no last minute hopes. There is no superhuman everyman to swoop in and avert disaster.
The damage is already being done. All that can happen is stemming the bleeding.
