  • Summary

  • On this inaugural episode of extremely brief, the letter 'A' is for accountability.

    First, we look at the pardon of approximately 1,500 January 6 insurrectionists, including roughly 200 who were directly convicted of instigating violence against law enforcement that day. Now out of prison, they are free to seek revenge, run for office or possibly just peruse their local library.

    Meta announced it was removing its agreement with a consortium of fact-checkers in favor of “community notes,” despite a documented trend that loosening moderation results in an increase in online hate.

    And what is the connection between last month's deadly school shootings in Nashville and Madison, Wis.? The shooters appear to have connected in the seamy online underground where violence and extremism fester.
