“[Toobin] has not tweeted since October 13. He did, however, appear on CNN, where he is the network’s chief legal analyst, on Saturday. CNN did not respond to a request for comment."
His comment, “I thought I’d muted the video” makes me think this wasn’t just an accidental getting-dressed-in-the-background type of situation
In fairness he probably had another screen where he was simply re-watching his CNN interview from earlier

While decrying conspiracy theories, @OliverDarcy claims Nunes’ FISA abuse memo & McCabe’s criminal behavior were both unfounded. Reminder that the DoJ IG detailed over many hundreds of pages that both were very real indeed

oig.justice.gov/reports/2018/o…

justice.gov/storage/120919…
@oliverdarcy Oliver further claims the Obama Admin’s FISA abuse is a “conspiracy theory” that “collapsed” after news the DoJ will reportedly not charge anyone for improperly unmasking names. Again, the DoJ has already documented the abuse; the FBI apologized and promised agency-wide reform.
@oliverdarcy But Oliver’s gaslighting machine is just warming up. He pivots to NY Post story, falsely “reporting" Biden’s camp said the meeting never took place (they only said it wasn’t in his official calendar), that they weren't reached for comment, and the emails’ providence “strange"

I see “possible disinformation” is blue checks’ new go-to talking point for any stories they consider unhelpful
I wasn't kidding ... ImageImageImageImage
Note that no one has provided any evidence the story is "disinformation" ImageImageImageImage

Perhaps worth mentioning now that I’ve been cooking up my own (news-oriented) social network called The Pub. Basically Twitter/Facebook, minus everything that sucks, where users/creators are compensated for the value they create (unlike Twitter/FB, who take it for themselves).
One key benefit: Twitter users can link their accounts and auto-populate The Pub w/ their tweets, making it easier to experiment w/ the new platform without having to post to two separate sites. Also helpful for backing up your tweets if Twitter decides to ban you.
ThePub.news = URL.

Have been trying to get it launched in time for the election, but am admittedly running behind. But a basic beta version is available now.

What Twitter and Facebook are doing today — trying to bury one of the most explosive stories of the 2020 campaign season — is already far more impactful than anything Russia attempted in 2016.
The Post’s story was obviously a huge scandal for Biden. However, what @Twitter & @Facebook are doing to try smothering it is an even bigger scandal. Big Tech colluding w/ the Biden camp to prevent American voters from making an informed electoral decision is insanely corrupt.
@Twitter @Facebook Hamilton founded The @nypost in November 1801. It’s the oldest continuously published daily newspaper in America. Their work should be given the same presumption of accuracy as the NYT (if not more so). But Twitter/Facebook seem to be making up their “standards” as they go.

.@NYGovCuomo blames nursing home staff for “bringing” Covid into their facilities.

"We’ve done a full study of it, the virus came into nursing homes from the staff."
@NYGovCuomo Cuomo claims he never signed an order instructing nursing homes to accept Covid patients, says “federal guidelines” resulted in Covid patients being moved to New York nursing homes
@NYGovCuomo .@WillieGeist does a great job following up, pointing out the March 25th order Cuomo signed.

Cuomo dodges again, blames “cruel” and “reprehensible” Trump comments for creating perception he did anything wrong.

.@SteveSchmidtSES, who’s just asking questions, wonders how many Trump staff will take up arms after Trump loses in Nov. to keep him power through force
@SteveSchmidtSES Steve Schmidt says a fly landing on Mike Pence during the debate is “the mark of the devil”
@SteveSchmidtSES SS: "It’s never a good sign when a fly lands on you for two minutes, that’s a sign all through history of sin. It’s only safe to say this after midnight. But a fly, he who commands the fly is always seen historically as the mark of the devil."
