Liberal response to free speech on Twitter is telling

Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover makes the left lose it: ‘It’s like the gates of hell opened’

Elon Musk finally closed the $44 billion deal on Thursday, promptly firing several of Twitter's top executives

...

Co-Host of Breaking Points Saagar Enjeti posted emoji hands waving "bye" while retweeting a post of his from April where he had written that, "Vijaya Gadde, the top censorship advocate at Twitter who famously gaslit the world on Joe Rogan's podcast and censored the Hunter Biden laptop story, is very upset about the @elonmusk takeover."
...

Uproxx writer Mike Redmond wrote, "I don't think any of us are prepared for how quickly this whole site is about to go down. It's a miracle flames aren't shooting out of it already."

"Yay, manbaby with poor impulse control and edgelord tendencies has the helm. Sweet," tweeted writer Dylan Reeve.

"I would be so happy if I’m wrong. But the [sic] all the red lights are flashing here," warned NBC News "disinformation" reporter Ben Collins.

Controversial tech columnist Taylor Lorenz tweeted, "It’s like the gates of hell opened on this site tonight."
...

Liberal academic and journalism professor Jeff Jarvis' reaction upon hearing the news was, "The sun is dark." Earlier in the day, he had warned, "This is an emergency! Twitter is to be taken over by the evil Sith lord."

Jarvis is no stranger to Twitter hyperbole. In April when Musk's plans to acquire Twitter first became part of the news cycle, he tweeted, "Today on Twitter feels like the last evening in a Berlin nightclub at the twilight of Weimar Germany."
...

Forbes sustainability senior contributor Dave Vetter tweeted, "After Elon has demolished Twitter, where will you go? Ideas below, please."

He later responded to another commentator by clarifying that "I'm not leaving until the platform becomes essentially unusable or until I'm banned, whichever comes first. But if he does what he says he wants to do, I don't see how Twitter will continue to function."
...

There is much more.

 The libs seem upset that conservatives will be allowed to express their point of view on the platform.  Many of them are just not handling it well.  The same people who thought Hunter's laptop was Russian disinformation still want to regulate your speech and fear the destruction of the universe if people have free speech.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
