Bari Weiss didn't make any case for political bias against the right. There is zero info on how many on the right or left were affected. She only gave 4 carefully selected examples with screenshots that were taken recently for this presentation. Just saying, no one on the right would accept these screenshots as proof if the sides were reversed.

Elon cannot be this dumb, he's playing games.

I had a doctor's appointment out of town this morning and scanned the AM radio dial and this was playing on every talk show, every station.
