Yeah, despite the rumblings from other reporters this still feels like another bit of Axios wishcasting.
What's for certain is that any Democrat who votes to cave now and betray the base in exchange for nothing at all will live to regret it.

I never imagined GitHub would ask me to speak about #Log4Shell.
But it happened.
@github.com asked me to share the story as I lived it, for the benefit of users of #opensource. How could I say no?
I hope it helps build a more secure future.

The internet was on fire. 🔥
One small library affecting billions of systems.
Log4Shell was the biggest security vulnerability of all time.

A $29 billion compensation package for any CEO is obscene.
Tesla's captive Board is once again enriching Elon Musk at investors’ expense. This is yet another glaring reminder that the company lacks reliable, independent oversight and effective corporate governance.

Breaking News: Tesla granted about $29 billion in shares to Elon Musk, calling it a “good faith” award to help retain him after a judge struck down his previous pay package.
Tesla Awards ‘Good Faith’ Shares to Musk Worth $29 Billion
The “interim” package announced on Monday was intended to help retain Elon Musk, whose previous pay plan was invalidated by a judge. The car maker’s chief has hinted that he needed a larger stake in the company.

The Trump regime is about to burn 500 tons of USAID emergency food. Why?
Because it expired after its shipment was delayed.
1.5 million children could have eaten for a week. Now, taxpayers will spend $130K for it to be destroyed.
This isn’t just inefficient – it’s cruel.

Can confirm this email is authentic — and about nothing in it is true.
Social Security income is still taxed. This bill does nothing to change that.
It’s willful disinformation on the part of SSA. It’s a lie.

Hi, I think a lot of us received e-mails from SSA saying that social security will no longer be taxed - and that somehow there is "enhanced deductions" (how much enhancement can you make to 0?) for those over 65. What part, if any, of this is true? Thank you!
