Opinion Barack Obama’s smart way to change the disinformation debate
By the Editorial Board
“That’s where Mr. Obama’s ideas come in.
His diagnosis is on target. The Internet has given us access to more people, more opportunities and more knowledge. This has helped activists drum up attention for overlooked causes. It has also enabled the nation’s adversaries to play on our preexisting prejudices and divisions to sow discord. On top of that, “an instant, 24/7 global information stream,” from which audiences can pick and choose material that confirms their biases, has deepened the social divides that bad actors seek to exploit.
The prescription is more complicated. Mr. Obama starts where most lawmakers are stuck:
Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which gives platforms immunity from legal liability for most third-party posts. He suggested a “higher standard of care” for ads than for so-called organic content that everyday users post. This would strike a sensible balance between eviscerating Section 230, making sites accountable for everything they host, and doing nothing. Yet Congress would have to act with care: Any government rule that would encourage private corporations to punish harmful but legal speech treads on tricky First Amendment territory.
Mr. Obama identified another problem with the Section 230 talk:
homing in on what material platforms do and don’t take down risks missing how the “very design” of these sites privileges polarizing, inflammatory posts. With this, Mr. Obama adds something vital to the mainstream debate over social media regulation, shifting attention away from a debate about whack-a-mole content removal and toward the sites’ underlying structures.”

It’s impossible to overstate the earthquake this will cause inside the Court, in terms of the destruction of trust among the Justices and staff. This leak is the gravest, most unforgivable sin.
mebbe the staff thought this court is not worthy of that ‘honor and code’ since they are breaking the precedents right now and did the right thing instead before these corrupt cowards pulled a fait accompli over the masses.
also. too. fuck the secrecy of it all. why should such grave public matters be decided in dark rooms and darker minds? sunlight them all.
Doesn’t justice department depend on whistle blowers to expose the corruption? why should the sc be the holy cow that cannot be touched, especially when their ‘appointments’ are so blatantly rigged by the rethugs? An twice impeached traitorous thug was allowed to pack the court. Fuck the honor and decorum of the courts. The rethugs drowned it and dragged the body in the sewage gutter.
The grave, unforgivable sin is the women whose lives will be destroyed due to lack of healthcare, not some partisan hacks in robes being revealed to be partisan hacks in robes.

The Supreme Court has voted to strike down Roe v. Wade, according to an initial draft majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito and obtained by POLITICO.
We told you in 2016 that COURTS were on the ballot. You didn’t listen then. You aren’t listening now.
Now you want SOMEONE to fix what you felt so unimportant, you threw away your vote in 2016.
The bill always comes due.

As a pro-choice pastor, I’ve always believed that a patient's room is way too small for a woman, her doctor, and the United States government.
I'll always fight to protect a woman's right to choose. And that will never change.
— Reverend Raphael Warnock (@ReverendWarnock) May 3, 2022
A party that takes away abortion rights but refuses to provide support for pregnant women who need help with medical care including birth expenses, housing, food, child care & schooling, employment, etc, is most definitely not pro-life.
If the report is accurate, the Supreme Court is poised to inflict the greatest restriction of rights in the past fifty years – not just on women but on all Americans.
The Republican-appointed Justices’ reported votes to overturn Roe v. Wade would go down as an abomination, one of the worst and most damaging decisions in modern history.
Several of these conservative Justices, who are in no way accountable to the American people, have lied to the U.S. Senate, ripped up the Constitution and defiled both precedent and the Supreme Court’s reputation.
This is at the expense of tens of millions of women who could soon be stripped of their bodily autonomy and the constitutional rights they’ve relied on for half a century.
If you are upset that #RoeVWade is about to be overturned by the Supreme Court but you didn’t vote in 2016 or you voted for Trump because you didn’t like the smart lady, YOU did this w/your apathy or your decision to choose an imp for President. YOU gave him THREE SCOTUS seats.
If #SCOTUS is going to legislate from the bench and turn back the clock 50 years on #RoeVWade, then the Senate needs to pass my Women’s Health Protection Act, and if we need to eliminate the filibuster to get it done, we should do that too. #WHPA
— Sen. Tammy Baldwin (@SenatorBaldwin) May 3, 2022
Republicans have won the popular vote in one election over the past 29 years. Our electoral college has enabled a conservative majority on the Supreme Court to overturn #RoeVWade and force it's minority view on us.
It's time to expand the court and set term limits. Who agrees?
I am all for term limits. No other democracy has for-life judges.
Each incoming president (dem or rethug) can appoint 3 judges each term without senate approval to replace 3 oldest or longest serving judges. That way each judge will serve only 12 years which is much more higher in other democracies. Removes all the drama and corruption in one stroke and promotes more judges to the top.
"If the Court does overturn Roe, it will fall on our nation’s elected officials at all levels of government to protect a woman's right to choose. And it will fall on voters to elect pro-choice officials this November."
So…here we are. I’m fired up and fucking fed up. Going to register some new voters and call the Dem office and volunteer some time…going to donate and work my ass off because the FIRST TIME I worked my ass off wasn’t enough! I thought we got this shit done 48 years ago, but my bad. I’m pissed. Who’s with me?
The effort to overturn Roe has been a powerful fundraising and voter-turnout vehicle for GOP candidates for 50 years. That card has now been taken away from them, and it’s a huge loss for their consultants. It’s zero sum – the energy and focus now flips to the Democrats.

What do you think of this make lemonade out of lemons hot take? Me thinks dems wasted lot of political capital, Obama included, on lgbt issues, many of ungrateful whom went back to vote for rethugs anyways, instead of laser focusing on women’s rights and voting rights.
The exhaustive talk about the leak is the media living in its own bubble. They’re likely doing exactly what the leaker wanted—distracting from a monumental ruling by talking about the bullshit process.
So many people out in various cities last night and today talking about the hit(s) on our constitutional rights – not who leaked what – and I wasn’t a bit surprised. The MSM I watched today barely spoke about the leak, either. John Roberts can KMA, if ya get my drift.
Probably has a thing about virtual conception (soon).
We knew it was coming…guess we’ll hafta expand the SC before they do, end the filibuster before they do, pass the Women’s Health bill, win the House before they do it for the final time, and reverse finger the
“My body My Choice” used line by millions of trumpQ anti-vaxxers.
If the report is accurate, the Supreme Court is poised to inflict the greatest restriction of rights in the past fifty years – not just on women but on all Americans.

Read today that Retired Sgt. Victor W. Butler’s birthday is May 21st, he is turning 100. Mr. Butler is believed to be the last Tuskegee Airman. His birthday wish is for birthday cards, he has said he will read every one of them. I sent my wishes to him today. In case you want to join his birthday card party send to Sgt. Victor W. Butler, c/o Gary Butler, P.O. Bos 3523, Cranston, RI, 02910.
In the late 1990s, we once hosted a Tuskegee Airman at my Navy command in Florida, where I worked as a civilian, and I remember it well. Such an honor to hear him speak.
I think Sgt Butler may be the last TA in Rhode Island. My neighbor, William Rice is 96 and still going strong. He’s pictured in the last photo in this article:

No idea who this person is or how credible it is, but – even with all that – it’s a thought-provoking thread.
I clerked at the Supreme Court. Last night, I assumed a liberal clerk leaked the draft opinion overturning Roe. Now I think MUCH more likely it was leaked by a conservative fanatically committed to every word of Alito’s monstrous opinion. **🧵**
