The invasion of Ukraine continues.
In response to Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine, TikTok extended its maximum video length to 10 minutes, as a response to increased pressure on the platform for its role in spreading misinformation and disinformation. However, Media Matters for America warns that rather than providing a solution to misinformation and disinformation, the longer videos may only lead to users taking advantage of the longer format to “spreak longer, more complicated” misinformation as happened when the platform expanded the length of its videos from 1 - 3 minutes in the wake of COVID misinformation.
China locks down Changchun, a city with a population of over 9 million, due to a new outbreak of the omicron COVID variant, sticking to a strict policy geared on preventing the rapid spread of the virus. Meanwhile, it’s masks off for everyone in the U.S. COVID, after all, is a state of mind, right?
Trucker Freedom Convoy couldn’t decide what to do or how to get there.
Colorado-based, right-wing activist Joe Oltmann calls for mass hangings of U.S. senators who voted to avert a government shutdown this week. According to Raw Story, Oltmann said "There's your list of 19 traitors to the American People, along with all the other traitors to the American people," said Oltmann on the Conservative Daily podcast. "I want people to go out there and get some wood. The gallows are getting wider and longer. We should be able to build gallows all the way from Washington, D.C. to California."
They found Ernest Shackleton’s long-lost Antarctic ship almost perfectly preserved at the bottom of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. The ship sunk over 106 years ago after the ship was crushed by sea ice and Shackleton’s entire crew had to be rescued from his failed expedition.
The PA state legislative maps are locked in. Bucks County Democrats have a real chance of flipping two seats given the composition of the new districts.
Democratic candidate Gwen Stoltz visited with the Pennridge Democrats last night. She’s a strong candidate with a local background that has a real shot in flipping the 143rd to Blue.
Central Bucks School Board meets and the extremists are not going to quit. During an extra-long public comment period, former anti-maskers and anti-CRTers took to the mic to read sexually explicty passages from books they want banned from the school library.
Beginning to think these parents want to control the schools so their own kids don’t start to call them out for their own racism and bigotry.
