  • Did Trump Incite the Riots?
    Did Trump incite the riots? Only with the help of Big Tech Campaigning group SumOfUs has reviewed dozens of social media accounts, pages, and groups, as well as far-right disinformation websites, and has found several key incidents that highlight how Trump used social media to rally his base in support of the events that took place on January 6, and how the power of Trump’s tweets and retweets - sometimes of obscure pro-Trump accounts - escalated to the use of violence. From the evidence, it is clear that while Trump lit the match that set this violent far-right movement ablaze, it was tech companies that provided the platforms for organizing — and their policies, algorithms, and tools directly fueled it. The briefing reveals how tech platforms responded, and how the measures they took came up massively short in preventing the escalation of violence. It also highlights how ad tech platforms like Google and Amazon are profiting off of disinformation websites — which are in turn amplified on Facebook and continue to circulate in far-right extremist networks. In addition to holding Donald Trump to account for his role in the insurrection, SumOfUs urges lawmakers to launch an official investigation into the role tech companies played in aiding and abetting the insurrection, as well as the role Facebook’s algorithmic amplification played in boosting electoral disinformation. Trump: the Internet’s firehose of disinformation President Trump’s tweet about ballot harvesting, April 14, 2020 Responsibility for content casting skepticism about the election lies first and foremost with Donald Trump. Early in the spring, roughly 200 days before the election, Trump tweeted that mail-in ballots are rampant with fraud.

    Gaslit Nation Transcript 17 February 2021 Where Is Christopher Wray? https://www.patreon.com/posts/wheres-wray-47654464 Senator Ted Cruz: Donald seems to think he's Michael Corleone. That if any voter, if any delegate, doesn't support Donald Trump, then he's just going to bully him and threaten him. I don't know if the next thing we're going to see is voters or delegates waking up with horse's heads in their bed, but that doesn't belong in the electoral process. And I think Donald needs to renounce this incitement of violence. He needs to stop asking his supporters at rallies to punch protestors in the face, and he needs to fire the people responsible. Senator Ted Cruz: He needs to denounce Manafort and Roger Stone and his campaign team that is encouraging violence, and he needs to stop doing it himself. When Donald Trump himself stands up and says, "If I'm not the nominee, there will be rioting in the streets.", well, you know what? Sol Wolinsky was laughing in his grave watching Donald Trump incite violence that has no business in our democracy. Sarah Kendzior: I'm Sarah Kendzior, the author of the bestselling books The View from Flyover Country and Hiding in Plain Sight. Andrea Chalupa: I'm Andrea Chalupa, a journalist and filmmaker and the writer and producer of the journalistic thriller Mr. Jones. Sarah Kendzior: And this is Gaslit Nation, a podcast covering corruption in the United States and rising autocracy around the world, and our opening clip was of Senator Ted Cruz denouncing Donald Trump's violence in an April 2016 interview.

    Fourth Biennial EAAS Women’s Network Symposium Feminisms in American Studies in/and Crisis: Where Do We Go from Here? April 28 and 29, 2021 BOOK OF ABSTRACTS EAAS Women’s Network [email protected] http://women.eaas.eu IN COLLABORATION WITH 2 INTERSECTIONAL FEMINISM AND LITERATURE: THINKING THROUGH “UGLY FEELINGS”? Gabrielle Adjerad In light of what has been institutionalized in the nineties as “intersectionality” (Crenshaw, 1989), but emanated from a long tradition of feminism fostered by women of color (Hill-Collins, Bilge, 2016), feminist theory has increasingly shed light on the plurality of women’s experiences, the inseparable, overlapping and simultaneous differences constituting their identities, and the materiality of the various dominations engendered. At the turn of the twenty-first century, this paradigm seems compelling to address fictional diasporic narratives addressing the diverse discriminations encountered by migrant women and their descendants in the United States. However, adopting an intersectional feminist approach of literature, for research or in the classroom, raises methodological issues that this paper contends with. Some thinkers have considered the double pitfall of considering, on the one hand, the text as a mimetic document of plural lives and, on the other, of essentializing a symbolical “écriture feminine” (Felski, 1989). Some have highlighted the necessary critical movement between the archetypal dimension of gender and the social and historical individuals diversely affected by this ideology (De Lauretis, 1987). Yet, beyond this tension between an attention paid to abstraction on the one hand and experience on the other, we can consider that hegemony is made of different ideologies that may contradict one another (Balibar, Wallerstein, 1991).

  • Capitol Insurrection at Center of Conservative Movement
    Capitol Insurrection At Center Of Conservative Movement: At Least 43 Governors, Senators And Members Of Congress Have Ties To Groups That Planned January 6th Rally And Riots. SUMMARY: On January 6, 2021, a rally in support of overturning the results of the 2020 presidential election “turned deadly” when thousands of people stormed the U.S. Capitol at Donald Trump’s urging. Even Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, who rarely broke with Trump, has explicitly said, “the mob was fed lies. They were provoked by the President and other powerful people.” These “other powerful people” include a vast array of conservative officials and Trump allies who perpetuated false claims of fraud in the 2020 election after enjoying critical support from the groups that fueled the Capitol riot. In fact, at least 43 current Governors or elected federal office holders have direct ties to the groups that helped plan the January 6th rally, along with at least 15 members of Donald Trump’s former administration. The links that these Trump-allied officials have to these groups are: Turning Point Action, an arm of right-wing Turning Point USA, claimed to send “80+ buses full of patriots” to the rally that led to the Capitol riot, claiming the event would be one of the most “consequential” in U.S. history. • The group spent over $1.5 million supporting Trump and his Georgia senate allies who claimed the election was fraudulent and supported efforts to overturn it. • The organization hosted Trump at an event where he claimed Democrats were trying to “rig the election,” which he said would be “the most corrupt election in the history of our country.” • At a Turning Point USA event, Rep.

  • Wilburn 1 Ryan Wilburn Capstone Bednar 1 April 2021 First Full Draft
    Wilburn 1 Ryan Wilburn Capstone Bednar 1 April 2021 First Full Draft For the December 2020 issue, Harry Styles, ex-boyband heartthrob, appeared on the cover of Vogue magazine in a blue, lacey, floor length Gucci dress. The cover received attention from far and wide, especially on social media. Vogue and Styles tweeted the cover image and a link to the cover article on November 13th, 2020 (Figure 1), sparking conversation among Twitter users, both fans of Styles and those who found issues with the cover. I analyzed a set of responses on Twitter to Harry Styles’ Vogue magazine cover photo and the ensuing controversy over gender performance and masculinity. I followed Gillian Rose’s method of discourse analysis, Discourse I, and worked through the lenses of hegemony, hegemonic masculinity, and gender performativity to answer the following research questions: 1. How does hegemonic masculinity shape the way Twitter users respond to non-normative presentations of masculinity, like Harry Styles wearing a dress for Vogue? 2. What does hegemony look like on Twitter and how might that differ from society as a whole? What is dominant in this particular space? In my experience as a Twitter user, the platform is used in an incredibly unique way. As a social media site, it affords a possibility of wide reach for posts, allowing people to connect with posts from users they have no previous connection with, even no mutual friends with. The short, quick post style allows users to post their responses to an original post with lighting speed and share that thought with their followers.

  • 2 Katie Bo Williams, Mystery Surrounds Sessions Appointee to FBI Investigation, the HILL (Apr
    December 18, 2018 VIA ONLINE PORTAL Douglas Hibbard Chief, Initial Request Staff Office of Information Policy U.S. Department of Justice 1425 New York Avenue NW, Suite 11050 Washington, DC 20530-0001 Via FOIAOnline Re: Freedom of Information Act Request Dear Mr. Hibbard: Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552, and the implementing regulations of the Department of Justice (DOJ), 28 C.F.R. Part 16, American Oversight makes the following request for records. In response to congressional demands, former Attorney General Jeff Sessions represented that he had ordered U.S. Attorney for the District of Utah John Huber to evaluate certain matters raised in letters from members of Congress—seemingly regarding DOJ actions related to the 2016 election and the actions of Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation.1 Despite the sensitive and politically-charged nature of Attorney General Sessions’s directive to U.S. Attorney Huber, little is known about the actual scope of Mr. Huber’s investigation.2 Representative Mark Meadows indicated that Mr. Huber would be testifying before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee’s Sub-Committee on Government Operations regarding his investigation, but Mr. Huber did not, in the end, offer public testimony.3 1 See Letter from Jeff Sessions, Attorney General, U.S. Dep’t of Justice, to Chuck Grassley, Chairman, U.S. Senate, Comm. on the Judiciary, Bob Goodlatte, Chairman, U.S. House of Representatives, Comm. on the Judiciary & Trey Gowdy, Chairman, U.S. House of Representatives, Comm. on Oversight & Government Reform, Mar. 29, 2018, https://cdn.cnn.com/cnn/2018/images/03/29/ag.letter.re.ig.and.huber.reviews.pdf.
