>> Dems just have to get someone to ask about it and answer "We don't comment on that."
Imagine if #Biden called media outlets and asked them to run this story, adding “Leave the rest to me and the #Democratic Congressmen” like #Trump told #JeffreyRosen: “Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the R. Congressmen.“
Former top Justice Department officials have testified to the Jan. 6 committee that President Donald Trump hounded the department to pursue his false election fraud claims. They say he contacted the agency’s leader “virtually every day” and strove in vain to enlist the government’s top law enforcement officials in his desperate bid to stay in power. The House panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol also revealed Thursday that several Republican loyalists in Congress who trumpeted the president’s claims later sought pardons from the White House after the effort failed.

“Acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen and his deputy, Richard Donoghue, made it clear to Clark that while there may have been a few isolated incidents of fraud scattered across various states, it wasn't nearly enough to make a difference in who won the election.
They also learned that Clark had direct contact with Trump, which was a violation of DOJ policy as to who had contact with the White House. Even though Rosen and Donoghue told Clark to cease his contact with Trump, Clark continued to communicate with him in direct violation of DOJ rules.”
Jeffrey Clark — a senior official at former President Donald Trump's Department of Justice — may have committed a major verbal error while testifying under oath at his disbarment hearing.The Associated Press reported that Clark, who was acting head of the DOJ's civil division in the waning days of t...

The District Attorney’s office could also call several of #Georgia’s top #Republican leaders, including Gov. #BrianKemp, AG #ChrisCarr, Secretary of State Brad #Raffensperger & former Lt. Gov. #GeoffDuncan.
@Dianora There's been a lot said on education, and I don't think that well's spent yet.
There's also the distinction between liberal and servile education --- the classical Seven Liberal Arts of the Trivium (grammar, logic, rhetoric --- or input, processing, and output as I like to consider them), and Quadrivium (arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy, or quantity, quantity in space, quantity in time, and quantity in space-time). C.P. Snow's "Two Cultures" is a more contemporary take on that, or present STEM/STEAM initiatives.
On propaganda, I twigged a few years ago that censorship, propaganda, surveillance, and targeted manipulation are all inherent elements of a media monopoly (both terms used in a broad sense), and emerge from them.

I'd also long since recognised that privacy is an emergent concept as well, and a response to ever-more-intrusive communications, observation, and recording technologies. There's a reason why there was little discussion of the topic prior to Warren & Brandeis's treatment.
I'm something of a fan of articles from the cusp of the Internet age which discussed possible directions and implications, some prescient, some misguided. Jeffrey Rosen's The Unwanted Gaze (2000) still bears up as a good guide here, I think:
