Diary of disturbing disinformation and harmful delusions
This cost:
“Conspiracy theorists . . . are feeding the American public misinformation with the only real objective of making an attempt to discredit the company.”
— FBI, Wednesday
We are saying: The bureau is pushing again towards revelations that its brokers bought Twitter to suppress The Put up’s blockbuster October 2020 scoop about Hunter Biden’s laptop computer by warning it might be Russian disinformation. But the FBI bought the laptop computer months earlier than it urged that; it knew completely effectively the story was legit. It was the brokers behind that motion who discredited the company — not these revealing it.
This declare:
“The border shouldn't be open. So I need to be very clear about that as a result of we're doing the smugglers’ job if we unfold misinformation.”
— WH spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre, Monday
We are saying: President Biden has principally waved in hundreds of thousands of migrants since taking workplace, all however rolling out a purple carpet for them. They’ve made their manner to almost each a part of the nation. In fact the border is open. The one “misinformation” being unfold right here is the denial by Jean-Pierre and people like her.
This verb:
“[Congress’ omnibus spending package] might be the final main invoice that passes this 12 months earlier than Republicans seize management of the Home on Jan. 3.”
— NBC Information, Tuesday
We are saying: “Seize” management? Please: Republicans will take workplace in a relaxed, orderly vogue after being duly elected by US voters. NBC, after all, isn’t the one liberal outlet that’s tried to painting a GOP majority within the Home as ominous. But think about anyof them ever warning of Dems “seizing” management. It’s simply not occurring.
This assertion:
" class="wp-image-25106959"/>“We can't stay silent about Elon Musk’s reckless determination to droop quite a few journalists’ Twitter accounts.”
— Heart for American Progress, AFT and different progressives, Wednesday
We are saying: “Journalism is the cornerstone of free speech,” 14 progressive teams fume. “An assault on journalism” is an “assault on one in every of our basic pillars.” No, progressives can’t “stay silent” when that occurs — except, after all, it’s The Put up reporting a narrative that’s unfavorable to a Democratic nominee for prez, as with the paper’s 2020 scoop on Hunter Biden’s laptop computer. When Twitter banned The Put up for that, you possibly can’ve heard a pin drop from the supposedly high-minded defenders of “journalism” and “free speech.”
This tweet:
We are saying: Sorry, however proof that masks are efficient towards COVID and different viruses is weak at finest — and proof that masks mandates work is even weaker. The true downside? Too few officers have hesitated to difficulty them.
