Trump will have an interesting decision if Twitter, under the control of Musk, reinstates his account. If Trump starts tweeting, it would effectively kill any rationale for Truth Social. DWAC, the SPAC slated to merge with Trump's company, down 12% today https://t.co/SvviF4BsWL — PolitiTweet.org

@Toyota Oh, and BTW, @Toyota is not "allegedly" donating to politicians who contested the results of the 2020 election! Toyota admitted it was in a statement to https://t.co/Gl6evXRDcZ — PolitiTweet.org

.@toyota thought it could quietly resume donating to the Republicans who voted to overturn the election and no one would notice. Now it's trending https://t.co/GinjSomlzT https://t.co/y98xRTrPP4 — PolitiTweet.org

I have no idea if Musk will be able to buy Twitter and, if he does, how Twitter might change. But it underscores the importance of making sure you do not rely exclusively on algorithms controlled by tech companies to get your news. Take control of your information flow now. — PolitiTweet.org

@jonathanchait I’m honestly perplexed at how you can continue to view this as the central threat to free speech as large states ban discussing race and gender issues in schools and private businesses — PolitiTweet.org

11. In March 2022, @amazon donated 30K each to the @NRSC and @NRCC. Collectively those two committees will support the reelection of every Republican objector running for reelection. https://t.co/GinjSomlzT — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
10. UPDATE: After 1/6, @amazon said it had "suspended contributions to any Member of Congress who voted to override the results" in light of "the unacceptable attempt to undermine a legitimate democratic process" https://t.co/GinjSomlzT — PolitiTweet.org

9. After 1/6, @generalelectric "voted to suspend donations to those who voted to oppose the Electoral College results." GE reported pledged to maintain the suspension through the 2022 election. On 3/30/22, GE donated 1K to @TomRiceSC7, a GOP objector https://t.co/GinjSomlzT — PolitiTweet.org

8. UPDATE: On January 10, 2021, @Citi announced it would pause all political donations and "not support candidates who do not respect the rule of law." In March 2022, Citi donated $12,500 to 4 Republican objectors. https://t.co/GinjSomlzT — PolitiTweet.org

7. UPDATE: After 1/6, @Intel announced it would "not contribute to members of Congress who voted against certification...as we feel that action was counter to our company's values." In March 2022, Intel donated $15,500 to 6 Republican objectors https://t.co/GinjSomlzT — PolitiTweet.org

5. In a statement to https://t.co/Gl6evXRDcZ, @toyota acknowledged that it had resumed donations to Republican objectors “[a]fter a pause of six months, during which time Toyota had extensive discussions with internal and external stakeholders.” https://t.co/GinjSomlzT — PolitiTweet.org

@Toyota @ProjectLincoln @CNN @nytimes @washingtonpost @Reuters @NBCNews @FinancialTimes 4. @Toyota's March 2022 donations went to members of Congress who have demonstrated hostility to democracy before and after 1/6, including @jackiewalorski and @DavidKustoff https://t.co/GinjSomlzT https://t.co/CWq7M6YZDT — PolitiTweet.org

@Toyota @ProjectLincoln 3. The July 2021 press release had the desired effect. It received coverage from many major media outlets: @cnn, @nytimes, @washingtonpost, @Reuters, @NBCNews, @FinancialTimes, Until now, the resumption of donations to objectors received no coverage https://t.co/GinjSomlzT https://t.co/jZzhm1EP42 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@Toyota 2. @Toyota made its July 2021 announcement under intense public scrutiny. It was the #1 donor to Republican objectors. @ProjectLincoln had cut a TV ad. It issued a press release to make it all stop. But it seems Toyota was just buying time. https://t.co/GinjSomlzT — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
UPDATE: In July 2021, @Toyota issued a press release stating it "decided to stop contributing to those Members of Congress who contested the certification of certain states in the 2020 election" In March 2022, it quietly resumed donating to those members https://t.co/GinjSomlzT — PolitiTweet.org

@EmilyDreyfuss Not OK and IMO unsustainable. Another related issue is that many of the companies that have seen record profits during the pandemic still don’t pay their workers a living wage. Was just reading this new report from Brookings: https://t.co/D29QCGzkxe — PolitiTweet.org

@EmilyDreyfuss Much worse than prices just being raised to maintain profits. Prices are being raised to increase profits to record levels. https://t.co/dLiKdDPwHd — PolitiTweet.org
