Members of the Cyber Safety Review Board were informed they have been dismissed pursuant to a DHS order disbanding all advisory committees. The board had been in the middle of probing the Chinese hack of U.S. telecoms, a review that now is in limbo and possibly terminated.

When Elmo bought Twitter, it was obvious he didn’t care about the platform or free speech—he craved power. A power money should never have been able to buy. Now it’s clear to everyone: he destroyed it for his own gain. The fact that he is now part of the US government should terrify us all.

Screenshot of X: Elon Musk has quote-tweeted a post stating that women can "post thirst pictures" on X and get paid for it, adding the comment "True!"

Screenshot of X: Elon Musk has quote-tweeted a post that claims, "The people of Britain have had enough of a tyrannical police state." This is in response to an original post alleging that people in Britain are calling for a new general election.

If I heard Trump had appointed Andrew Tate to the US Gender Policy Council, I wouldn’t assume it was a joke. Such is the state of US politics. That said, it’s probably naïve to assume a Gender Policy anything would exist under Trump after he scrapped the Women & Girls council last time around 🤡

Trump is slipping farther and farther below 50%. He now leads by only 1.6%—and his vote advantage is under 2.5M. One of the narrower victories of the last 100 years of American politics, and any journalist or politico using the term mandate probably needs to retire from their profession immediately.
