    For the record, we removed it here too because the links kept going to a personal blog and not an actual news source.

    Someone posted it as replies in the comments, which was fine.

      Just a heads up, from voyager mobile, it is not marked that you are an admin or mod of anything. It would be good to declare that to clarify and validate your statement

      Edit to be clear I’m not disregarding or objecting to your statement at all. Just clarifying a potential miscommunication by app design.

        Interesting, not sure why Voyager wouldn’t load the “M” tag next to my name. We might need to get with the developer on that.

        Looks good in Boost!

            Interesting, I fired up Voyager in Android and the comment I made with the “Speak as Moderator” has my name highlighted in Green and the other comments unmarked.

            In Boost:

                Yup, that was it. Switched to my lemmy.one account and the green goes away.

                So it looks like Voyager only respects the mod notification if you’re logged in to the instance that the mod is a mod of.

    Oh man, the republicans are going to be so mad to hear that an immigrant conspired with a candidate to manipulate the media to hide information and influence the election.

    That’s like all he things they’re upset about, so surely they’ll be upset any minute now.

    Surely.

    Any minute now.

      “that JD Vance PDF file” rolls off the tongue pretty well, for what it’s worth.

        Honestly, it’s worth a read. Basically it boils down to this – they know damn well all the things he’s said about Trump in the past. None of them are new revelations to them. But the biggest one is that he would follow orders when told not to certify the election.

        We’re in a slow-coup. They tried jumping the gun a little bit on Jan 6th. Trump couldn’t help himself. But this has been in the works for more than 20 years.

    Does that count as a campaign contribution that should have been reported?

    I’m so glad they used the full version of this photo. The look on Trump’s face is wonderful.

    Gosh. What can you say about X[itter] that isn’t at least damming by faint praise?

    “At least it’s not Facebook?”

    Sigh.

    I sure wish one gigantic corporate outlet would set up a Mastodon instance or something and stop using Xitter altogether. That would start the ball rolling. That platform is for Nazis, and being on it only supports the Nazi platform.
