@karaswisher My third as well. I moved to Cicada-land (DC) in 1973, so missed the 1970 invasion. But I was here for 1987, 2004, and now this one. I hated them all. — PolitiTweet.org

Misinformation plays a big role in creating vaccine hesitancy, & purveyors of falsehoods use isolated incidents to make their claims 👇🏾 Don't fall for them. Search out facts from credible sources & subscribe to @NewsLitProject's GSAN to stay news-literate https://t.co/cVpolFWDFw — PolitiTweet.org

@reckless Especially when U.S. telecom companies so often fail to deliver for their customers and yet overcharge those same customers. Why do they even have stores to sell phones? They are utilities and they should be focused on that. Does your power company have stores to sell toasters? — PolitiTweet.org

The cicadas are back - and they’re just getting started. The experts say they’ll be around here, in the billions, for six weeks, constantly making a very loud humming noise. I’ve already had to sweep away about a dozen big, black, fully grown ones from our front doorstep. https://t.co/ymw0obwtmw — PolitiTweet.org

I highly recommend this well-crafted review of the Starlink satellite-based broadband system, by ⁦⁦@reckless⁩ . It skillfully melds a product review (respectful, but disappointed) and a broader analysis of America’s miserable broadband policy. https://t.co/DjxnDolRCr — PolitiTweet.org

Fifteen years ago today, the last episode of “The West Wing” aired after 7 years. It was not only great TV, with brilliant writing and fine acting. It remains the closest approximation of life in the White House ever on TV. Fire up @hbomax and watch an episode or fifteen. https://t.co/n5pR3Khhtm — PolitiTweet.org

The large, gross, ultra-noisy 17-year cicadas have begun to emerge from their underground lairs in the D.C. area. They will soon number in the billions and will be on every conceivable outdoor surface in a 15-state area from NY to Georgia, Illinois to North Carolina. https://t.co/9GXr8ALwoO — PolitiTweet.org

@PrideOfHumility @benedictevans If you like being able to customize complex products, you’re what I call a tinkerer.

Does a social media post elicit an immediate emotional reaction? If so, that's a sign it might be disinformation designed to do just that. Pause & do a fact-check. Here is one example from the @NewsLitProject's free GSAN newsletter 👇🏾. Subscribe: https://t.co/cVpolFWDFw — PolitiTweet.org
