KJP Asked: Was Anyone In Biden Admin. In Twitter Content Moderation?

  White House Press Briefing Karine Jean-Pierre (KJP) is asked about the Biden Administration's possible involvement in Twitter content moderation decisions. A reporter asked the White House press secretary : "On Twitter, Elon Musk this week fired the former FBI general counsel Jim Baker, who was serving as a top Twitter lawyer." Musk alleges that he may have been involved in countermanding his attempts at transparency. And I was wondering if anyone in the Biden Administration was in touch with Baker recently, either regarding moderation decisions that critics called political censorship or regarding his transparency efforts. KJP replied : It's up to private companies to make these types of decisions; we were not involved. I can say that we were not involved, and as I've said several times this week already, we've talked and had this conversation many times in this briefing room. Just a few days ago, it was up to these companies to make their own decisions ab...

Does Cinema's decision to leave the party take away some of that freaking room? Karine : As you all know, I said that we understand Senator Cinema's decision to register as an independent, but the way that we see it, it does not change the majority or the complexion of what the Democratic majority is going to look like in the Senate. Reporter : Does it impact you? I mean, you're saying that this decision won't change at all how you work with her, or you've said that you expect that, or you have every reason to expect that you will continue to work successfully with Cinema.

  Photo credit: Gage Skidmore/CC BY-SA 2.0,  via Flickr At today's House Judiciary Committee hearing, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) praised former President Donald J. Trump for allowing Black and Jewish Americans to join his private clubs when that was not the norm. Matt Gaetz in his house floor speech said:  Mr. Chairman, let me begin by saying that it used to be the case on Palm Beach Island that no blacks or Jews were even allowed to be members or invited as members at the private clubs, and it was actually Donald Trump before he was in politics who made that, I believe, very important change so that we weren't treating people differently based on their immutable traits. I also want to say something on the subject of this hearing when it comes to Supreme Court ethics and guardrails. I am supportive of bipartisan efforts to have some sort of ethics construct on the court. I don't understand why Congress is subject to ethics rules and the executive is subject to ethics rules, ...

  Photo credit: Gage Skidmore/CC BY-SA 2.0,  via Flickr At a GOP press briefing on Wednesday, Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) called for a rejection of an omnibus government spending bill and instead pass a continuing resolution to fund the government after which the new Congress will work on the budget. Sen. Rick Scott said: What we want to have to happen is make sure that our military men and women will not continue to be discharged because of religious reasons or health reasons because they don't want to take the vaccine. That's an unbelievable win for military men and women. Remember, the military is about military members, and we need to have all the equipment we need to have all these things, but without the men and women in the military, we can't get this done. We still have to focus on the people that have been discharged; they need to be reinstated with back pay. These people have been injured, and this clearly doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense for the...
