The way Plaskett attacked Shellenberger was astonishing. It sort of reminded me of the post the other day “Tell me you infringed on the first amendment without saying you infringed on the first amendment”

They are outraged that journalists are doing...journalism.
1:54:25 Garcia: "So, you're in this as a threesome?"

She acted like she doesn’t know Bari Weiss?

Well, that was weird.
Yesterday we helped break what could be the most important story of the year, if not the decade: U.S. government agencies, including the Department of Homeland Security and the National Science Foundation, have been financing and working private sector entities to secretly censor ordinary Americans.
Michael and Friend of Public Matt Taibbi testified before the House Committee on the Weaponization of Government about our findings. Did the Democrats respond by thanking us for exposing this imminent threat to the First Amendment? They did not.
Rather, Democrats spent the hearing impugning our motives and calling us “so-called journalists.”
Happily, the Republicans on the committee showed appropriate levels of alarm and promised to investigate our charges.
The highlight of the hearing came when Rep. Sylvia Garcia (D-TX) asked Michael about how he got involved in the Twitter Files. After Michael explained that our friend, Bari Weiss, invited us in, Rep. Garcia said, “So you’re in this as a threesome?”
Peals of laughter rippled through the hearing room at the unintended innuendo. “There were many more people involved than that,” deadpanned Michael.

EXPOSED: America's Secret Censorship-Industrial Complex
Our findings are shocking. A highly-organized network of U.S. government agencies and government contractors has been creating blacklists and pressuring social media companies to censor Americans, often without them knowing it.
We and others have already reported on some of the actions of this complex, including its disinformation campaigns. But the extent of its censorship was unknown to us until very recently. And, as importantly, we now understand the ways in which this complex simultaneously spreads disinformation and demands censorship.
