“Basically, the people in Virginia who get dirt under their fingernails at work were told by screeching, rich, white ladies with Prada bags that they have no say in Congress anymore. In grand old Virginia fashion, the elites will rule, the peasants will serve.”

This morning I went to vote NO at the HOPE WAY polling site in Alexandria. While checking in, I mentioned I may need to grab my driver’s license from my car. An election worker (Robin is her name) told me, “You don’t need your ID, we can verify you, you’ll be fine.” I responded, no I need my ID. After finding it, I checked in and said clearly that everyone should show ID. That’s when the worker began arguing, saying “not everyone has ID, some can’t afford it, there are many reasons why.” That’s not just inappropriate, it’s electioneering from a poll worker. Totally unacceptable.

"Peter, take this...please..."

I have over 400,000 followers on X and 40,000 on Facebook. I post the same content, the same reporting, and the same investigations on both platforms. Nothing has changed on my end, but the reach tells a very different story. Today, I published the exact same article at the exact same time on both. Facebook delivered over 250,000 views and more than 2,000 comments, while X brought in just 30,000 views and around 80 comments. Despite having ten times the audience on X, I’m reaching less than 10% of my own followers, closer to 7%. Facebook is clearly pushing the content well beyond my base, while X isn’t even delivering it to mine. At this point, it’s hard not to conclude that X is limiting reach while Facebook is not. @elonmusk
