Who else is better equipped? In my view it would solely depend on the lawyers that internet archive hires, and money plays a big factor in that.

Also, internet archive is going through the route process of how legislation gets overturned or upheld. Just because you perceive them as unworthy to bear the challenge doesn’t make that true, and as a result your commitment to not support them because they aren’t the one true chosen is ill-informed.

Why am I seeing multiple news reports today about Joe Biden where they remove context to polarize his comments further? This feels, to me, like a new media trend

The leotard in question is worn by the model on the far right who, even though she is cut off, visibly has her hands covering her groin area. Perhaps a re-design is in order?

Solemnizing a marriage = officiating
People can already refuse to officiate weddings, this bill is symbolic posturing

I remember seeing this argument about billionaires and corporations leaving the US if they are taxed fairly at a national level. If that were the case then 1. The US wouldn’t lose out on revenue it wasn’t losing out on already, and 2. The “free market” or the government would adapt to fill the abandoned niche.

My friends and I enjoy sharing our results with each other every year. IMO the problem arises when results are shared with advertisers or without my knowledge.

So I guess X is past the “deny there was antisemitic content” stage.

Also, the hot take from Ken Paxton

Paxton claimed to be "extremely troubled by the allegations that Media Matters, a radical anti-free speech organization, fraudulently manipulated data on X.com."

Freedom to do what, Ken?

This is a weird take to me. One of the groups is not like the other two in your own example. It is obvious that there is a huge wealth gap driven by unregulated capitalism which is contributing to the problem, and multiple studies have shown that homeless people that receive free money (i.e. a universal basic income) use that money to stop being homeless.

You may like the weather changes, but you are not going to like the food insecurity and drop in quality of life when food- and goods-producing regions are unable to produce food or goods.

Not driving cuts down on car exhaust. That isn’t bullshit, it’s a no-brainer.
