I was initially pretty disappointed that Banks took his job back at the bank but, upon reflection, there may not have been many options for someone with his skill set in England in 1910 — PolitiTweet.org

On November 13, ten days after the election, Amazon hired Jeff Ricchetti as a new federal lobbyist. It was made public yesterday. Jeff Ricchetti is the brother of Steve Ricchetti, who will working in the White House as a senior adviser to Biden Probably just a coincidence. https://t.co/Tp2zd4Jg89 — PolitiTweet.org

TRUMP: I was the real winner of the election & state legislatures should overturn the vote and install me for a 2nd term GOP: He makes some good points. Let’s see how this plays out TRUMP: Send Americans 2K checks so they can survive the pandemic GOP: Whoa. Let’s not go crazy — PolitiTweet.org

14. Facebook has 50,000 employees and had 21.4 billion in revenue in the 3Q 2020. My newsletter has 2 employees and 0 billion in revenue in the 3Q 2020. But I seem to care more about this than Facebook? If you care too, check out my newsletter. https://t.co/TfpCItdVSo — PolitiTweet.org

13. I emailed Facebook yesterday at 10AM about this ad and have received NO RESPONSE. The ad is still up, still active, and still is misleading Georgia voters. It still violates Facebook's rules. Facebook does not appear to care. — PolitiTweet.org

12. Then, on December 22, American Crossroads posted another ad WITH THE SAME FALSE ATTACK ON WARNOCK. IT WAS APPROVED BY FACEBOOK AGAIN This was a claim that was already removed TWICE by Facebook https://t.co/5VMNZSZMtj — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
11. Removing the ad was what Facebook's policy required, but it was pretty disturbing that American Crossroads can just keep posting copies of the same ad. So I emailed Facebook this question: What's preventing American Crossroads from posting it again? No response. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
10. I exposed what happened on Twitter and, after a delay of several hours, Facebook took down the duplicated ad. https://t.co/KjmQj0ToXp — PolitiTweet.org
Andy Stone @andymstone
@JuddLegum The ad's been removed.
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
9. American Crossroads quickly spent more than 8K on this ad that was previously removed, and reached as many as 250K Georgia voters. https://t.co/KFZsmIoLYD — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
8. But on December 20, American Crossroads just reposted the EXACT SAME AD dishonestly attacking Warnock. AND FACEBOOK APPROVED IT. https://t.co/Oj8PEhyit9 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
7. It took them awhile but Facebook eventually removed the American Crossroads ads. Under Facebook's rules, politicians and parties can post false political ads but Super PACs cannot. https://t.co/iTo9pctUHQ — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
6. Based on my Twitter thread on 12/17, one of Facebook's fact-checking partners evaluated the American Crossroads ad and came to the same conclusion: It misleads voters because it lacks context https://t.co/Z7BJWO2JeN https://t.co/1kh3SJEOFf — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
5. It's really impossible to overstate just how dishonest this ad is. It's like Kelly Loeffler going on Fox News and saying: "Jerimiah Wright said 'God Damn America.'" And then running an ad attacking Kelly Loeffler for saying "God Damn American" — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
4. Here's Warnock's full quote: "Extracted from its theological and rhetorical context and looped to the point of ad nauseam was the most provocative phrase 'God Damn America'" The ad claims this means Warnock "He repeated the same anti-American hate himself" FALSE. https://t.co/GySDxvCtf9 — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. The American Crossroads ad tells Georgia voters on Facebook that Warnock said "God Damn America." As if he was expressing his own views. But he wasn't. He was quoting Jerimiah Wright in a speech he delivered on 7/11/13. We tracked down the full quote — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
2. The story starts on December 17, after Facebook begins allowing political ads in Georgia. American Crossroads, a Super PAC run by Karl Rove and financed by Mitch McConnell, starts running a brutally dishonest ad against Raphael Warnock — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
1. I know it's Christmas Eve but people should understand what's happening with Facebook ads and the Georgia Senate runoffs. These elections will determine the trajectory of American politics for the next two years. Facebook's conduct is indefensible Follow along if interested — PolitiTweet.org
