Meta Ending Fact-Checking Program – Moving to Community Notes

- By - Leave a Comment

Meta: “Starting in the US, we are ending our third party fact-checking program and moving to a Community Notes model”

“Some people believe giving more people a voice is driving division rather than bringing us together. More people across the spectrum believe that achieving the political outcomes they think matter is more important than every person having a voice. I think that’s dangerous.”

“A program intended to inform too often became a tool to censor.”

“we will get rid of our fact-checking control, stop demoting fact checked content and, instead of overlaying full screen interstitial warnings you have to click through before you can even see the post, we will use a much less obtrusive label indicating that there is additional information for those who want to see it.”

Opinion: This is a huge win for free speech. It’s awesome to see Meta acknowledge their mistake and move to correct it.

Trump to be Sentenced in Hush Money Case on Jan 10th

- By - Leave a Comment

Wisconsin State Journal: Judge Juan M. Merchan, who presided over Trump’s trial, signaled in a written decision that he’d sentence the former and future president to what’s known as an unconditional discharge, in which a case is closed without jail time, a fine or probation.

Merchan wrote that he sought to balance competing interests: Trump’s ability to govern “unencumbered” by the case, the U.S. Supreme Court’s July ruling on presidential immunity, the public’s expectation “that all are equal and no one is above the law,” and the importance of respecting a jury verdict.

Vegas Hotel Alleged Bomber’s Family Speaks Out

- By - Leave a Comment

Collin Rugg: He loved Trump, and he was always a very, very patriotic soldier, a patriotic American

Matt was a very skilled warrior

he would’ve been able to make a more sophisticated explosive

could have fashioned a bomb that would have obliterated half of that hotel if he seriously wanted to hurt others

Opinion: This incident doesn’t make sense to me. I 100% agree that if he were trying to conduct a terrorist attack, he had the skills necessary to do significant damage. What he used was amateur hour, so it begs the question…did he do it, or was it coercion? Maybe suicide. Unfortunately, I believe we have more questions than answers at this point. This guy deserves the benefit of the doubt as the investigation continues.

Vegas Cybertruck Alleged Bomber Identified

- By - Leave a Comment

Matthew Livelsberger, a 37 year old Colorado resident and active Duty U.S. Army Solder has been identified as the Cybertruck bomber.

NY Post: worked in special forces overseeing drone operations and maintenance

last stationed at Camp Panzer Kaserne just southwest of Stuttgart, Germany

He previously served from 2015 to 2023 as a special forces intelligence and operations specialist

Opinion: So we have two U.S. Army vets carrying out separate and unrelated attacks on the same day. The one in Vegas looking like a complete amateur job, which makes me wonder if this one was more of an attempt to commit suicide and get a bunch of attention while doing so.
