Regarding your efforts to combat ‘disinformation’ in February, you wrote:

“Committee member Marjorie Taylor Greeene got even more than that, using the hearing as an opportunity to accuse former Twitter executive Yoel Roth of being a pedophile right to his face.”

Following your rabbit hole led to a tweet by the execrable Aaron Rupar, which contained a clip of Greene’s exchange with Roth wherein she says that in his doctoral theses, he, Roth, suggested children should have access to “Grindr”.

Is that true? Because if it is, it doesn’t necessarily mean Roth is a pedophile, but (after finding out what “Grindr” is) I’d say it absolutely means he supports pedophilia. And that is what Greene actually accused him of.

And if her accusation is true, Roth deserves all the harassment and harm he can get. If it’s true, it also means you, ma’am have herein indulged in some disinformation yourself.

So, did Roth make that suggestion? Let’s look:

“EL CERRITO, CALIFORNIA: Twitter's former censor was forced to leave the $1.1 million property he and his boyfriend shared in the Bay Area when Elon Musk revealed a passage from his thesis that advocated granting children access to the gay hook-up app Grindr.”

Why yes, yes he did. Case closed.

Good summary but why no mention of how for the 1st time the Dems are underwater on immigration? 18 points is significant! May want to read what NBC News has to say how Texas Guv Abbott has made this an issue that Biden can’t ignore. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/texas-gov-greg-abbott-divided-democrats-immigration-migrant-busing-rcna128815
