So this fits here:


Twitter just got hacked, tons of accounts compromised, blue checks muted, and glitches everywhere. Recommend anyone with an account update their password, ASAP.

Edit: Appearently updating your password right now makes the system glitch and label you a 'risky/spam/ account. Fucking lel, this is a shitshow.

They were using blue check accounts to push Bitcoin scams(I saw a message sent by Obama's account). Apparently someone really high up on Twitter got compromised.

Check out the video in the link. It's glorious. After the Trump Official makes his point, MSNBC Reporter Katy Tur Thanks him for being on... then proceeds on a minute long rant/speech as a last word before ending the segment.

Then Chuck Todd, super awkwardly... makes a gloriously cringey statement that just has to be seen to be believed.

For more skewering on this amazing piece of journalism... The Hill Rising covered it as well.

Actually, that's a very unflattering comparison.

Dude does like the aviators though. I feel that most of his more official photos are too high res/con. It's the government though, if they aren't making your photos look bad they aren't doing their jobs.

This doesn't convey moral weight, superiority, or inferiority at all, totally not.

the upcoming back lash over this bullshit is going to be horrifying.

After Tucker Carlson and his family had their home address outed by journalists last time a few years ago and then had their house vandalized and death threats sent to them, Tucker and his family moved away.

Now in the interests of journalism the New York Times is apparently planning on running a story about Tucker's new home? At least according to Tucker himself.

Honestly when you go to such levels of heinous disregard of people who are notional fellow members of your profession....welp Shakespeare was wrong the journalists are the ones who need to go before the lawyers. To be fair doing such activities back in his time would probably get you in duel to the death
