UNHINGED: MSNBC smears the Supreme Court after it ruled to not remove Trump from the ballot.
"Nefarious"
"An Alarming Message"
"A Power Grab in Every Way"
"An Emergency for our Democracy"
And despite the court's *unanimous* decision, MSNBC says it was "not really" unanimous, framing it as a battle of the sexes: "four women" vs "the guys".

Five years ago, one of the most tyrannical smear and censorship campaigns in history was unleashed on a 17-year-old boy.🧵/1
After two nights of riots in Kenosha, WI, Kyle Rittenhouse volunteered to clean up the destruction and protect the immigrant Indian family business Car Source, whose car lots were burned the previous nights. He brought his lifeguard medical kit to provide first aid. /2
Videos published that night clearly show KR being attacked. A gunshot is fired behind KR as he runs from a masked man lunging at him. KR shoots him. Then, KR is chased by a mob, hit in the head, kicked in the face, and hit with a skateboard before firing again in self-defense./3
I asked J6 Committee's lead investigator, Tim Heaphy,
How was the J6 violence worse than the BLM riots if the J6 rioters didn't kill anyone?
Are you concerned with misinfo from WaPo, which falsely reported that they had?
He dodges & lies that Officer Sicknick died from J6 🧵
Although the microphone was taken from me, I asked about the contradiction between Heaphy’s trust in the Washington Post and his claim that Sicknick’s death was a result of Jan. 6—which was effectively debunked in the Post 4 years ago. /2
Heaphy just lied and said, “The medical examiner found that Officer Sicknick died as a result of exposure to the chemical agents...”
The medical examiner "found no evidence" of that. /3
But during the election, news outlets, including CNN, misled the public into believing Twitter/X was a “far-right" "echo chamber” "Nazi cocktail party".
/1🧵
Nov. 19, CNN reported Twitter/X's userbase “matches the overall electorate far better” in 2024 than when Musk bought it in 2022. But the data shows something even bigger: Twitter/X now has the most politically balanced user base of all major social media platforms. /2
Funny, just five days prior, on Nov. 14, CNN reported that Musk was "turning Twitter into a far-right propaganda machine". /3
Kamala Harris' call to ban Donald Trump from Twitter initiated a period of unprecedented internet censorship. 🧵/1
During her previous failed run for President, Harris promised her government "will hold you accountable" for "misinformation", threatening tech companies with consequences if they don't "police" their platforms for "hate" and "misinformation". /2
The next month after then-Senator Harris threatened the tech companies, Twitter announced it would start labeling tweets with "additional context and clarity". Trump's tweets would later become the first labeled in this way. /3
NEW: The American Psychological Association (APA) is mis/disinforming kids with its new kid's book, on mis/disinformation. 🧵/1
True or False? The Science of Perception, Misinformation, and Disinformation
The APA engaged in a real-life conspiracy with the CIA to bolster Bush-era torture. Now its new children's book seeks to “prebunk” young readers from investigating conspiracy theories. It also misinforms kids on other topics including racism, gender, and the COVID-19 pandemic. /2
Lesson #1 COVID Doctors Never Lied
"During the COVID-19 pandemic," the book says, there was "seemingly conflicting information from scientists".
"Seemingly"? Ha! The messaging was completely contradictory. Trusted experts lied about masks, vaccines, & the virus's origin.
NEW REPORT: DNC Disinformation Program lists factual reporting and satire as "disinformation" 🧵/1
In a video uploaded by Democratic Party strategist Simon Rosenberg in 2023, Tim Durigan, the DNC's lead disinformation analyst, shares a PowerPoint with a sample intelligence report that provides a rare inside look at what the DNC sees as "disinformation".
(highlight added) /2
The "Cognitive decline" disinformation intelligence report lists content the DNC calls "out of context" & "deceptive".
But nearly every video and article listed is factual reporting, while the rest is opinion & comedy.
