The possibility of which... went completely unproven by Matt Taibbi who misread some documents and then just pretended it was a huge scandal... which large segments of the media has now accepted
The possibility that pre-Elon Twitter was limiting the reach of conservative tweets was the greatest story in the history of journalism, while a vast network of sex trafficking pedophiles that included billionaires, celebrities and two presidents is just a big yawn.
Sure, sure. Story checks out.

I was at a DOJ conference in 2009 which became a multi-week scandal for allegedly serving $16 muffins.
(There were no $16 muffins, btw. The hotel billed a continental breakfast as "baked goods," which also included fresh fruit, coffee, tea, soft drinks, tax and tip.)

cannot imagine being this kid, hypothetically surviving, and dealing with that comment from Mom as an adult
“If I knew this could be the outcome, I still wouldn't have given my son the vaccine.”
This was said by the mother of a child in South Carolina who has been hospitalized with measles encephalitis since January.
I tried out several sentences for this spot, but none could capture my thoughts.

My father and grandparents came here lawfully as refugees. Under this memo, they—and every other refugee in America—would have been subject to mandatory arrest and detention after one year in the country, even if they did nothing wrong. Truly evil stuff
Let me explain what this genuinely EVIL memo does. The admin is doubling down on its plan to arrest, detain, and interrogate tens of thousands of legally present refugees; people already vetted who’ve lived here legally for 1+ year.
Hundreds were arrested in Minnesota before a court blocked this.

I don’t think anyone should have to even listen to this take from Vance while the Trump administration is litigating to end birthright citizenship, notwithstanding the clear text of the constitution.
Eileen Gu, born to a Chinese immigrant mother and American father, has won five medals — the most by any female freestyle skier in Olympic history.
Her decision to compete for China instead of the U.S. has drawn criticism from Vice President JD Vance.
