it’s interesting to see how they frame these things because they still get so much engagement on Facebook and places like that.

Several paragraphs in, far past that headline, you get to this:

This is absolutely untrue. For more than a decade, Kennedy campaigned against vaccines, as @vermontgmg.bsky.social reported in @longlead.com’s LONG SHADOW podcast.

Listen to this episode, featuring @noupside.bsky.social’s fight against his antivax efforts as far back as 2013, for the full context:

I don’t know! I did see that. But it’s not like they care about competence.

Yup. I did draft this post as part of a broader recap of every foreign conspiracy theory we saw in 2020…

(FWIW Ed Martin just got axed — ppl initially expected it to be him, not Tulsi! Bc you know, DNI not supposed to be involved in domestic investigations and all that.)

I also think this has a very real chance of occurring.

Media should be considering explainers on why there’s no universe where Maduro rigged the election bc this is one of those rumors that’s built up lore for years in bespoke realities, & normies may register it as a “shocking revelation”.
Can't wait for Pardon Attorney Ed Martin to broker a deal where Maduro "confesses" to rigging the 2020 election in exchange for clemency and cushy exile.

They didn’t release the transcripts until a week before Xmas, in a 12k page mass dump in an appendix just before the Weaponization committee disbanded.

Speech, Coercion, and the Myth of the Censorship Regime
Google's letter to Rep. Jim Jordan inadvertently provides evidence against the "censorship industrial complex" narrative he is using it to support.

Make RIGHT WING media demand a public hearing.

lol no it won’t — it’s so that they could fucking lie in the reports they wrote, obviously.

Which is what they did!

It’s why they don’t want Bill Clinton testifying publicly. Didn’t want Hunter Biden. They don’t want a fight and they don’t want facts to puncture the facade.

Clinton should fight.
