Anonymous sources in Media Reports re: Mar-a-Lago search, a brief history. This thread takes no stance on the legality or politics. It chronicles the use of anonymous sources in reports surrounding the incident. WITH citations. @MattWalshBlog @billmaher @Cernovich @ZubyMusic

@SxarletRed @Eve_Barlow @CommunityNotes Seems to be true. They lowered the total of older deaths by got half, then added new deaths.

So the UN is walking back the death toll in Gaza by half. By half. 50 per cent. It will not make mainstream news. It will not be uttered by people for seven months until everyone considers it as fact. It will not be reported with sensationalist images or provocative language. It will pass people by. We live in an age of zero accountability and moral impunity. We live in an age where everyone has wrapped their identity up with righteousness, moral superiority, and having to be correct. Nobody can admit they were wrong in front of an audience. Everybody is frightened of the consequences of appearing to have made a mistake. Whenever someone like me presents a different argument or adds comment to a one-sided debate it is viewed as a personal attack on the speaker's character and worth. There is no room for dialogue, for asking questions, for correcting mistakes, for growth. We live in a world of fragile egos, self-aggrandized ignorance and dangerous misinformation. I am more terrified of ordinary people than I am of the terrorist organizations who are using them as pawns.

@ninaturner Governments that promise everyone healthcare, housing, and food ALWAYS wind up slaughtering people. Take a history class.

I want my tax dollars to go to make sure everyone in my community has healthcare, housing, and food. I do not want my tax dollars being spent on slaughtering people. This is not a radical idea.

"Journalism" from NBC. Equating Israeli civilians killed by terrorists to Gaza civilians killed by their own government. Reporting 35k Gazans killed without mentioning that number is reported by Hamas, unverified, and statistically impossible. 🤔 nbcnews.com/news/world/duk… @NBCNews

@blondeorthodoxy @ShawCrouse Christianity is the single greatest force uplifting women in human history. In 0 AD, the West permitted wife abuse and murder by her husband, as well as infanticide. Rome adopted Christianity, demanding husbands love their wives as Christ loved the Church, and everything changed

@DogsDogsMoreDog @AngryBlackLady Because no one is worried about a woman playing with a bunch of men and hurting them?

@AngryBlackLady His question is just pathetic. So calculated too. If this is the questions they want to ask, they shouldn’t even be granted a seat at the table and the opportunity to even ask. They don’t ask men’s team coaches the same question. 🙄

@phildis @crossface2008 @RapSheet Thru?

@crossface2008 @RapSheet It’s incredibly amazing how some people have gone thru high school and college but yet can’t understand a simple post on social media.

The #Browns have now traded for Amari Cooper for a fifth-round pick and a pick swap, and traded for Jerry Jeudy for a fifth and sixth.

@KelliCrabt91128 @DustyDeevers Racism is a hobby for you, or it's like a full-time gig?

@DustyDeevers Another preachy, self righteous white guy deciding he knows women’s rights best and wants to legislate his beliefs on the rest of us.

As we speak, both chambers of the Alabama legislature are set to debate two bills that aim legally to protect the practice of in vitro fertilization. National Republicans have come out in favor of IVF and against the Alabama Supreme Court on Friday. There is a real danger of the Alabama legislature passing a bill to permit the destruction of embryos to attempt to undo one of the biggest wins on the sanctity of life we have had in a long time. Further, there is also a real danger of Congress passing a law to attempt to override state-level prohibitions on the destruction of embryos. This is an incredibly important moment, and we must have the moral clarity and courage to speak up for preborn lives unable to speak up for themselves. We must support the Alabama Supreme Court and Chief Justice Tom Parker, who, in a 7-2 landmark decision, ruled in favor of protecting embryonic human life from destruction, a ruling that is projected to have saved at least 85,000 children’s lives. Alongside Chief Justice Parker, we affirm that every person is made in God’s image from the moment of conception, which is fertilization. All lives are sacred and have value determined by God. So, if any human life is wrongfully destroyed, it is an affront to God and will incur His wrath. IVF is an assisted reproductive technology in which many infertile couples have participated and even given birth to a healthy child. However, many, if not most, people are unaware of the dark side of IVF. Before talking about that, let me first share a word with those who have found themselves infertile and either participated in or are participating in IVF. Friends who personally have been confronted by the profound pain and weight of infertility, we acknowledge your grief and difficulties and mourn with you. We live in a broken world with much pain and suffering and unmet longings, which can be devastating and disorienting. We are sorry. We mourn with you. Simultaneously, because of the steadfast love of the Lord, we long to come alongside you and search God’s wisdom in His Word, point you to God’s holy and wise care for His creation, His love for His own people in the life of His own Son, and direct you as to how God’s Word would have you think biblically about life and thus, IVF. As my friend, Dr. Evan Lenow writes in his book Ethics as Worship, “Your loving Father—the One who invented sex and who seeks to fill the world with worshipers—has what is best for us in his mind and on his heart. Thankfully, he has revealed his good moral wisdom to us through his Word.”

@EndWokeness They felt the shame

America's Founding Fathers, Vikings, and the Pope according to Google AI:

@DavidAFrench You fundamentally fail to understand the concept of civil rights. The First Amendment does not restrict government. It also does not confer any rights on government. The article you quoted actually states this, but you cite it in hopes it confuses your critics. Sad.

I like the way Cornell Law's Legal Information Institute defines the doctrine: "Although the First Amendment’s Free Speech Clause limits government regulation of private speech, it does not restrict the government when the government speaks for itself." /2 law.cornell.edu/wex/government…

It's apparent from the responses to this tweet that lots of folks are completely unaware of the government speech doctrine--the notion that the government has its own rights as a speaker. (But as I explain in the thread, its rights to speak don't include a right to coerce). /1

@DavidAFrench Just throwing it out here. No Court has ever declared the government has ANY constitutional right. Not the First Amendment. Not any amendment. @DavidaFrench--who might be a reasonable person for all I know--is making up fairy tales for a purpose I can't fathom.

That's why courts protect the 1A rights of the government *and* private citizens. At the same time, however, there is recognition that "jawboning"--government efforts to convince or cajole private actors to change their behavior--can cross the line from convincing to coercing. /6

The Twitter files discussion contains so little nuance because it hasn't distinguished different forms of government power. Lots of folks don't know this, but government actors have their own 1A rights even as they're constrained from violating the 1A rights of others. /1

@obie_by_obie @JoJoFromJerz @mehdirhasan

@JoJoFromJerz @mehdirhasan Yours?

The incitement continues. No other indicted person would get the leeway to say stuff like this about the prosecutor.

@ninaturner Every right has exceptions. Period.

Voting is a right. Period.

@jeffcharlesjr Amen brother

Regardless of what y'all think of Florida's educational standards on slavery... Can we all agree that the Department of Education should be abolished??? Anyone???

An actual criminal attorney on Twitter. Whoda thunk it?

Don't worry, the media is not pushing any narrative. Right @wapo? @MZHemingway @JoeTalkShow @MattWalshBlog @redsteeze @Timcast washingtonpost.com/the-seven/2023…

@thecuttman @redsteeze His turn for what? They caved to pressure. Steven was right. Your turn, Noah.

Democrat candidate, Democrat member of congress and former DNC official. Journalists today. I just don't know.

@Upgradez @charlescwcooke Your reply is ignorant. The vast majority of federal bureaucrats are executive branch employees, all of whom are directly accountable to the president. The president can 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 hire and fire employees he is responsible for. Don't be a partisan fool.

@charlescwcooke The GOP actually has a plan for doing this....

Harvard’s Mark Tushnet is a national disgrace. He can dress it up as he wishes, but his latest idea is to turn any president he happens to like into an Emperor, while reserving the rule of law for his political opponents. nationalreview.com/corner/mark-tu…

This is why the left is attacking the legitimacy of the Court. Naked Power. This author is not a fringe activist. Tushnet is highly respected and literally wrote the Con Law book taught in many law schools, including Harvard. And he doesn't care one whit about the Constitution.

Might frame this one
