As Americans increasingly get their news from online shows, this media ecosystem becomes more influential. A new Media Matters’ study shows how overwhelmingly right-leaning this ecosystem is -- with nearly five times the following of left-leaning online shows. www.mediamatters.org/google/right...

(CROWDSOURCING THREAD) Hi all. So it’s been almost exactly a year since the last PROOF Threat Index—which I just made free, below—and I’m almost done with the update.

The names have changed considerably.

I have 150+ names but am wondering who poses a threat to our democracy you think I might miss.
The Threat Index, Vol. 2: The Top 100 Threats to American Democracy
This new global assessment offers a journalistic perspective on which individuals pose the gravest danger to American democracy—as confirmed by major-media reporting.

I’m working on updates the Capitol Riot Map—an interactive visualization of the more than 1,500 individuals connected to January 6th.

I’ve spent more than 3-years and devoted hundreds of hours to this project, and there’s still more work to be done. Details on how to support this project below👇🏼

Turns out the President Musk thing was off base because Stephen Miller is really running the country. These are Miller’s ideas and Miller’s executive orders. Trump is just signing them and talking gibberish about what’s in them.

After a nearly 30-year career, he retired from police work in 2016.

Then, alongside an increasing number of former cops and federal agents, he sought stardom as a right-wing influencer while cultivating ties with Donald Trump.

It worked.

Borderline delusional pretentious sophomoric ramblings. Worth reading if you want a sense of how people like Thiel and Musk see themselves and how they wish we saw them, however.
All I can say about this Peter Thiel op-ed in the Financial Times is that it reads like something he actually wrote. No comms team or AI chatbot is capable of producing this strange paranoid string of sentences www.ft.com/content/a46c...
