Yoel Roth, the former head of trust and safety at Twitter, said it was a mistake for the company to censor the 2020 Hunter Biden laptop story
The story revealed Hunter's private life and controversial business ties to Ukraine in the run-up to his father's presidential race against Donald Trump
Roth said the story set off 'hack and leak' alarms, but he did not believe it should have ever been censored
He said the uncertainty over the story was ultimately what led to it being suppressed for 24 hours, a decision slammed by new Chief Twit Elon Musk
24 hours? Another lie.
Musk has vowed to release files detailing the company's decision to censor the story as Roth and former CEO Jack Dorsey appear to have passed the buck

It wasn't "uncertainty". They were 100% certain that this exposed Biden for what he really is: a corrupt insider who is up to his eyeballs in behavior the rest of the world considers contemptible.
This would have led to him losing votes and is hence unacceptable. Thus, the censorship campaign.
Censors don't censor lies, they censor the truth. They don't want the world knowing the truth because it is too damaging to their diseased and corrupt cause. Think of that next time you censor anyone.

Admits mistake ...
Or hoping to avoid being charged with conspiracy to cover up International Criminal Activities that reach deep into the DC Swamp?
In a discussion over a Reuters article in which the company's former head of trust and safety says Twitter is 'not safer' under Musk, user @EvaFoxU posted: "Twitter has shown itself to be not safe for the past 10 years and has lost users’ trust. The past team of "trust and safety” is a disgrace, so it doesn’t have any right to judge what is being done now," adding "They had a chance, but they sold their souls to a corporation."
To which Musk replied, "Exactly. The obvious reality, as long-time users know, is that Twitter has failed in trust & safety for a very long time and has interfered in elections."
Musk then said that "Twitter 2.0 will be far more effective, transparent and even-handed."

Election interference by an American is treasonous. I'm not sure what the crime for a foreign individual but I think we should have the right to lock some folks up while we figure it out. Mistake or not.

Out of all the Biden officials, she is the safest from criminal charges. There is just so much evidence of her being incompetent and stupid. Kamala might have edged her out, but the law degree is evidence of some cognitive abilities at least in the past.

Don't think it can't happen.
Remember, history tells us the German people supported the National Socialist (NAZI's) & Hitler's control of the Media, almost until the very last day.
If the US Liberal Socialist Democrat party (LSD's) feel it has the MSM and Social Media support, it will also.

I see him more as a potential stock market genius in the near term. I just have a feeling that he is going to get really smart very fast - not Guam capsizing smart, but smart nonetheless.

Big Mike and the Cackle Jackal are making preliminary moves, it makes me wonder if the demokrats are considering an all-minority Obama 4.0 for 2024?
[Hawley web site] Today U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) revealed new documents obtained from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as part of his investigation into President Joe Biden’s plans to establish a so-called “Disinformation Governance Board” to monitor and suppress the speech of American citizens. The hundreds of pages of heavily redacted internal emails, which can be read in full below, expose that DHS’s plans for the Disinformation Governance Board were much more extensive than the Biden administration has publicly acknowledged.

“Disinformation Governance Board” to monitor and suppress the speech of American citizens.
Karine Jean-Pierre, MSNBC, CNN, Twitter, Google, and other web based disinformation platforms were simply not keeping pace. An actual federal bureau was desperately needed.
[FoxNews] New Hampshire Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen and Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz got into a heated exchange Tuesday after Shaheen shut down Cruz's questions for an ambassador nominee concerning allegations that then Vice President Joe Biden pressured Ukrainian officials to fire the country's top prosecutor in 2016.
Cruz accused the Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairwoman of "covering" for Biden after Shaheen prevented nominee George Kent from answering his questions during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing. Kent, who is Biden's choice to be the next ambassador to Estonia, had previously testified as a witness during former President Trump's first impeachment inquiry and told lawmakers that he raised concerns about Hunter Biden's lucrative service on the board of a Ukrainian natural gas company – only to be rebuffed by the Biden administration.
The gas company, Burisma Holdings, was under investigation in 2016 by Ukraine's top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who himself faced allegations of corruption. In 2018, Biden admitted that while he was vice president, he pushed Ukrainian officials to fire Shokin by threatening to cancel $1 billion of loan guarantees.
Cruz asked Kent, "Do you think Joe Biden holding a billion dollars hostage to force the Ukrainian government to fire the prosecutor that is investigating the corrupt oligarch who's paying his son a million dollars a year? Did getting that prosecutor fired benefit that oligarch?"

Looks like the reboot craze has spilled over from movies into State Dept nominees. At least Scooby Doo used new villains each week. Everything else was recycled but there was variety among the perpetrators.

[FoxNews] John Nevergole, who is serving on President Biden's Advisory Council on Doing Business in Africa (PAC-DBIA), is former Rosemont Seneca senior adviser.
[AmericanThinker] Here’s How They Did it: Real-time Election Fraud
Database latency -- a geeky term, but that’s how they did it!
A policeman pulls over a speeder. The police computer reports that three hours ago a similar vehicle and person held up a liquor store -- so the police are on alert.
No database latency.
County election managers change the zip code of 31,000 voters on September 3. Ballots go out that week. Those 31,000 are undeliverable. Someone collects those valid ballots. On September 15th, those addresses are quietly changed back.
National Change of Address Database (NCOA) will not pick up those address changes. They didn’t happen because there is no history.
... Here’s the fraud equation taking place across the country:
Count the in-person votes on election day.
Count the early, in-person votes.
Shut down the system (Atlanta water leak, Maricopa County everything).
Bring in undeliverable ballots gathered when you changed voters’ names, addresses, or zip codes, then changed them back.
Determine the votes you need to win. Press the “WIN” button.
Wait for the Republicans to file a lawsuit months later.

The outlined scam is interesting but it still deals with real registrations where, theoretically, the person might vote. If you control the Eric system you can embed registrations for people that don’t exist and do the same thing.

Nothing to say that multiple schemes aren't at work.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
