The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."

Thousands of X users have posted about Ali Nasrati, a 30 yr old IT tech for Walmart, claiming he made insensitive comments abt Charlie Kirk.
But Nasrati has never posted about Kirk.
Now, he's been suspended from work and forced into hiding. I wrote about people being falsely targeted by the right

Police don’t intervene because they approve of the March. The police are very happy being Nazis.
New— Nazis with giant swastika flags marched in downtown Indianapolis on Saturday with two police escorts. They shouted “white power” and said to the woman who took this video (reshared here with her permission) “fuck you, n***** bitch.”
Police did not intervene. I cannot find local news coverage.

It's been really demoralizng how much the press mindlessly repeats the lie that the National Guard was sent to quell violence.
It was sent to start violence. People know this, so just say it.

Let’s stop calling it “remaking the presidency” this is a coup that would turn this into a dictatorship at worst and an oligarchy at best.
In just one month in office, President Donald Trump has made it clear that he sees the presidency in starkly different terms from virtually any of his 44 predecessors.

If you're so concerned about propaganda... come up with better ways to educate people to see through it. Teach people media literacy. Don't ban access to content and allow the powerful to decide what speech is allowed.

All of this! It's been clear for decades that Big Tech can't self-regulate and our current batch of lawmakers are way out of their depth.
Better idea: pass a comprehensive data privacy bill that applies across the board... and maybe *DON'T* mimic Chinese authoritarianism by creating a "Great Firewall" of apps that aren't allowed to operate here.

I’m concerned that Americans are flocking to a number of adversary-owned social media platforms. We still need a comprehensive and risk-based approach to assessing and mitigating the risks of foreign-owned apps.
