He began paying the culture warriors based on the views they got. He blocked and threatened reporters. He sued activists. He began charging eye-watering rates to access the platform’s API, driving away academic researchers. He stripped headlines off the previews of articles. He promoted the accounts of conspiracy theories and right-wing extremists.This is a system designed to cause chaos in the information environment, and it is working by design.”Big One: Biden’s response to attacks Big speech, strong language speech: https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/speeches-remarks/2023/10/10/remarks-by-president-biden-on-the-terrorist-attacks-in-israel-2/ Sent carrier group to the areaA little Teddy - walk softly and carry a big stick the size of the U.S. NavyFrom Reuters: https://www.reuters.com/world/us/biden-push-israel-ukraine-aid-package-over-2-billion-this-week-2023-10-15From that article, and H/T to Adam for (maybe?) being right about this: “How any bill moves through Congress without a House speaker is unclear. House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries suggested on Sunday that Democrats could work with Republicans to nominate a speaker."There are informal conversations that have been underway," about a bipartisan solution to the crisis, Jeffries told NBC's Meet the Press. "When we get back to Washington tomorrow, it's important to begin to formalize those discussions."”
