Entering 2021, our hearts are already broken.
That's exactly why we're ready to fight the good fight
People might say we were Nazis. >
They fired me without severance after I filed this lawsuit working with @Yoder_Esqq, who lost his job over it too. https://t.co/3ZgE6PWQGh >
Despite my seniority and experience I was sent to Scranton to watch them segregate invalid mail in ballots. That was the assignment and I did it. >
Wisely, my partner @pnjaban told me to go to Philadelphia instead, where I stood with @PamBondi and @CLewandowski_ as we tried to get into the Convention Center. https://t.co/QMg2GTXOEs

Everything was done on the fly.>
Then I transcribed voice mails into a spreadsheet for a while. >
This resulted in my being connected ultimately to another team. >
I was unable to continue working with the team over the weekend because of personal commitments, but we were in touch over the next days. >
We both remained very involved in messaging for the Trump team.>
Don't lecture me about activism, going to marches or calling out fools and con men on Twitter.
Everyone knows I'm friendly with @BrianTh37895972 and that I quote Thomas Wictor (and he me). But there's a limit to informed and even silly or playful speculation. >
And I will also say when something sounds ridiculous or the rules of proving an assertion have been turned inside out.
I've been a litigator and trial lawyer for 30 years. >
why, I'm going to be pretty sore about it.
Good Shabbos. <> https://t.co/U0wbs6EzCV

I’ve been reading lots recently about the interaction between First Amendment law and free speech principles with respect to online services in light of the events of the last few weeks.
And I have thoughts (MY OWN). So, I’m sorry ... a thread 1/25
One of the main reasons I think users are best served by a recognition that social media services have 1st Amendment rights to curate the content on their sites is because many users want filtered content, either by topic, or by behavior, or other. 2/
So online services should have the right to do this filtering, and to give their users the tools to do so too. For more detail see our Prager U amicus brief https://t.co/73PswB9Q7Q 3/
So, I disagree with my friends (and others) who say that every online service should apply First Amendment rules, even though they cannot be required to do so. There are both practical and policy reasons why I don’t like this. 4/
Most obviously, the 1st Amendment reflects only one national legal system when this is inherently an international issue. So it’s politically messy, even if you think a 1st Amendment-based policy will be most speech-protective (though probably only non-sexual speakers). 5/

Fake chats claiming to be from the Irish African community are being disseminated by the far right in order to suggest that violence is imminent from #BLM supporters. This is straight out of the QAnon and Proud Boys playbook. Spread the word. Protest safely. #georgenkencho
There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.
Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.
Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.
The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.

Be aware, the images the #farright are sharing in the hopes of starting a race war, are not of the SPAR employee that was punched. They\u2019re older photos of a Everton fan. Be aware of the information you\u2019re sharing and that it may be false. Always #factcheck #GeorgeNkencho pic.twitter.com/4c9w4CMk5h

There is a concerted effort in far-right Telegram groups to try and incite violence on street by targetting people for racist online abuse following the killing of George Nkencho

This follows on and is part of a misinformation campaign to polarise communities at this time.
