Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) thought posting a picture of herself throwing a death stare at Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) in response to him condemning socialism and defunding the police was a smart idea. Instead, it shows how AOC is full of herself and there's still a divide in the Democratic Party.

There is fierce competition for the position of dumbest talking head over at MSNBC. Lawrence O'Donnell, Chris Hayes, Mika Brzezinski, and Nicolle Wallace put up a great fight for the prize on a regular basis, but Joy Reid consistently outshines all of them in this coveted category. A recent tweet from Reid about the meaning behind "538" in the name of the polling outfit "FiveThirtyEight" should be framed and hung on a refrigerator somewhere.

Twitter really really doesn't want anyone to read this article, "Joe Biden’s votes violate Benford’s Law (Mathematics)."  In fact, if you tweet it, you will be locked out of your account, not-so-subtly accused of being some kind of pervert, required to remove it, and have a Twitter message slapped on your page for 14 days as shaming 'punishment.'

Twitter claimed it was clamping down on unverified and potentially dangerous news stories to justify their punishment of the Post. But now, dozens of people who work in media have been gleefully retweeting a hoax meant to smear former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. Will they be locked out of their accounts? Don't hold your breath.

Weird. Twitter deleted a tweet from a COVID-19 advisor to President Donald Trump because he said masks don't work. The platform didn't allow people to post articles from The New York Post about Hunter Biden's emails. Yet they did nothing about a tweet shooting around with a fake email from the Iowa Farm Bureau stating it doesn't support Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst. SO WEIRD.

Social media platforms, namely Facebook and Twitter, have hidden behind a specific provision, Section 230 of the Communications Act, maintaining that they are platforms, not publishers, justification they've used in broad and largely ideologically specific content and user censorship. Thursday, Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai indicated those days may soon come to an end.
