MSNBC breaks away from carrying POTUS live immediately as he makes dangerously false claims to delegitimize election integrity. Remarkable.
A deliberate act, not merely the demented musings of a desperate madman.
Biden hitting 270 should give cover to Republicans to defend the Republic from despotic delegitimization and reckless incitement. We’ll see.
ICYMI. The beginning of the end.
When The New York Times finally calls the president a liar.

Newly FOIA’d Mueller docs support idea data pooled across RNC Data Trust, Cambridge Analytica, Fabrizio, and Kellyanne Conway polling and lines up with 2016 Trump campaign database obtained by @Channel4News and recent docs posted for @CampaignLegal illegal coordination complaint
Rick Gates was sending Fabrizio data to Russian Intelligence via Sam Patten’s business partner KILIMNICK over WhatsApp and it’s finally become clearer that this data was at least conceptually synced to RNC and Cambridge Analytica’s accurate predictions of the battleground states.
Obviously the bar for a campaign to get caught in a conspiracy with a foreign power is impossibly high despite sending data this way when you have enough layers of intermediaries, copious plausible deniability, cynical media skepticism, and a profoundly corrupt Attorney General.

Good reason to dismantle it actually. Anything boycott-resistant needs a government intervention since the free market has been rendered moot.
You can’t boycott Facebook. User’s can’t. Advertiser’s can’t. That why it must be dismantled. Nothing should be able to withstand a boycott from both the B2B and B2C side. Nothing is more clearly a trust worth busting. That it manages our elections is only insult to injury.
Many people are saying, just #DeleteFacebook. It does nothing. It is hopeless. It is not the responsibility of individuals. It is the responsibility of a democratically elected government to break up a boycott-resistant company to achieve accountability.

A most undeserving monopoly.
They broke up AT&T and everything was fine. They can break up Zuck’s dumpster fire and everything will also be ok.
No company should be managing elections. It must be dismantled. Full stop.

Facebook sends its attack dogs against the NYU Ad Observatory for its essential work studying effects of ad targeting on the political process. This is disgusting, especially knowing there are actual data abusers out there actually selling Facebook data to political operatives.
Why isn’t Facebook going after Bridgetree!? They’ve been flagrantly *selling* scraped Facebook profiles for years! Is it because Bridgetree services the GOP and Facebook is afraid to give Joel Kaplan heartburn? Better attack the academics instead. Facebook is a malign force.
Here is head of Bridgetree boasting to Cambridge Analytica of its “very large scraping capabilities” and this a month after Facebook’s Allison Hendrix asked Alexander Nix to delete the Kogan data. So they went shopping for Facebook data elsewhere! But Facebook will do nothing.

Miami Herald partners with Channel4 and studies their Cambridge Analytica database leak from 2016 and conclude that its voter deterrence campaign was effective in Florida. #DeterringDemocracy #TheGreatHack miamiherald.com/news/politics-…
Amazing interview with a GOP activist on how they justify their Black vote deterrence campaigns.
Couched in language to appease skeptics and address controversies around the efficacy of political advertising more broadly, there is some basic evidence here in the C4 leak that is difficult to dismiss as “snake oil” —again, CA/SCL was not *magical* but it was also not nothing.

1. Against better judgement, I tap “Show more replies”
2. Account name has more random digits than the president’s looming debt
3. Scroll thru the sketchy AF TL
4. Gain first hand understanding why the Twitter algo marked this garbage account in the “Show more replies”
We did not have this feature in the lead-up to the last election!
*presidential elections in 2016 which was awash in poisonous digital toxicity with no remediation whatsoever, not the 2018 midterms, but you knew what I was talking about
