The Australian senator clearly can't believe what she's hearing: "Did you say that an account who shares *repeated* shares of this type of material will have their accounts suspended?"

Here's a clip from today's hearing where the Twitter exec explains why sharing child sexual abuse material isn't an automatic ban. And then an Australian senator explains why that's idiotic. forbes.com/sites/mattnovak/2…

the origin of the “woke weak military” meme is because they’re pissed the generals told them they wouldn’t order people shot in the street to keep them in power after they lost an election, and they want future generations of officers to give that order.
John Eastman says that if Trump's effort to overturn the 2020 election had been successful, "one hopes that our military" would have understood its obligation to quell any riots because failure to do so would mean "subjecting yourself to mob rule." bit.ly/3qsLuaj

There’s an extremely loud 30% of the country that’s pro-Trump, anti-choice, and anti-trans. They’ve convinced a lot of people they’re half the country but they’re not. They’re 30%.
Once again, the anti-trans shit is not working for GOP at all. Which is why it's even more disgusting that various centrists urged retreat on issue.
