So much can be gleaned from that mentality ill Twiter engineer.

Catastrophe thinking... Elon buys Twitter = Donald Trump back as POTUS.

And, from that it can be inferred that Tweeter employees see their roll as gate keepers.

I think if Trump gets back on Twitter it will hurt him. Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences.

As for Twitter employees they are clearly in the 1984 camp of censorship = free speech. The left media is saying it is ironic Elon uses free speech therefore has a bad track record of supporting free speech. That only makes sense if you think censorship = free speech. It certainly is not ironic.

"The West is in the grips of a climate change-fueled megadrought, and Lake Mead -- the largest manmade reservoir in the country and a source of water for millions of people -- has fallen to an unprecedented low." From the CNN article noted in the notes today.

Lake Mead is located in the desert SW. By current non-political definition, deserts don't have much rain...ever. 'Climate change-fueled megadrought' seems a bit over the top hyperbole, but evidently it gets readers attention. BTW, historical megadroughts of the area are quite a bit longer of duration than the current 'megadrought''. My guess is that it was probably another 'megadrought' or two that reduced numerous civilizations in the area into the multiple ruins found across the southwest US. Unfortunately, It's a huge problem for today where millions of people who have moved to the desert over the last 80 years think that there is ample water for everyone's every need and want. I don't think banning fossil fuels will fix weather patterns that have reduce Lake Mead from just about full in 1983 to its current level.
