Huge scoop here: Amazon pressured the USPS to install a private mailbox at its facility so they could pressure workers to bring their ballots to work, enabling them to monitor for no votes. This election is tainted and these executives should be investigated
If you have inside info on this you know what to do
In case that wasn’t clear

A spokesperson for @AOC says they did not report this post to police, and have asked for answers from Capitol Police: "No, not at all. But when we saw his tweets last night about being visited we asked Capitol Police to look into what happened here."
Will update when I know more from Twitter and the Capitol Police
That police did show up at this person's door over a post about AOC is confirmed. The open question is who sent them and why. If AOC was actually responsible for it and denied it, Capitol Police would eagerly out her, so her denial has serious credibility.

In the early ‘50s, the CIA printed fake leaflets pretending to be from Communist Hukbo rebels, who were waging an armed struggled but also had massive popular support and were poised to sweep elections. The leaflets urged all supporters to boycott the elections. It worked /1
Senior leaders thought they were real and zealously embraced the idea that the elections were a colonizer trap, etc. Losing the election was a huge moment and helped break the back of the insurgency. If you guessed at the time the CIA did it you’d have been right.
This was in the Philippines btw

Need some good ol' fashion canal digging in the package
No but seriously in the late 1700s/early 1800s there was insane canal fever and (most of) the founders were all for using federal government resources to build lots of them, because they rightly assumed that was the role of government, guiding economic development
The canal fever got so insane people tried to dig one ACROSS VERMONT.

Which is nothing but mountains! They tried very seriously.

When you’ve made it your personal mission to attack somebody no matter what, this is the insanity you end up with if there’s nothing there to attack. This is why my mentions have gone from normal-bad to extra-bad lately:
Also @jimmy_dore it’s not a “column” it was a scoop. You know about this because I broke it.
At least this time it’s about an article. He does entire super long segments about tweets of mine.

Some really important pieces of news in this @lhfang piece on new White House disclosures.

Susan Rice's is particularly interesting, showing she owns Pfizer stock as well as more than a million in Johnson & Johnson, while these vaccine makers fight to control their patents /1
She owns a ton of Big Tech stock as antitrust is becoming a major issue for the White House. One of the few things she's divesting is Netflix stock options she was given as compensation. Why not divest all of it?
Google, Apple, Chevron, Amazon, IBM, and on and on. These are stocks held by the head of the White House Domestic Policy Council

The effort to absolve the staff of Teen Vogue of any responsibility for the outcome of the controversy that they initiated with their own public statement is as energetic as it is counterproductive. ImageImage
Instead of being honestly critical of what the staff did, the move has been to say that actually it's much more complicated, management is to blame, etc. But why is it so hard to say that while management made mistakes, the staff did too? Why can nobody ever own it?
Your entire project would have *more* credibility if you could ever once admit an error. And the project is too important not to do so.
