The Lead: The Twitter Files Fallout

credit: twitter

The Federal Trade Commission is demanding all communication from Twitter regarding the Twitter Files. Many (including us) are calling this a retaliation for publishing damning government information. 

The Twitter Files have been exposés that show how government organizations have worked with Twitter to censor speech for one political party. Now the FTC is asking for communication-related to owner Elon Musk, information related to layoffs, and asking the company to identify all journalists granted access to these documents. The FTC says that it is concerned about Twitter’s ability to “protect consumers’ information.” 

The requests were obtained by the House Judiciary Committee and published on Tuesday. Musk responded to this on Twitter saying that it was “a serious attack on the Constitution by a federal agency.” 

U.S. Continues Occupation of Syria

The House of Representatives voted not to end the U.S. occupation of Syria on Wednesday. This is disappointing but not surprising. 

Although all is not lost, 103 leaders voted for it with 56 Democrats joining 47 Republicans to vote in favor of the bill, showing that there is at least some appetite for peace. 

Opponents of the bill said that they feared that troop withdrawal would revive terrorist groups n the region. Which is a good joke because the U.S. has backed terrorist groups in the region by supporting the al-Qaeda-affiliated al-Nusra since the Obama administration. For more on this, we highly suggest Stephen Gowans’ book “Washington’s Long War on Syria.”

Germany is showing how the all-electric car plans may not be as rosy as they would seem. 

The European Union has said that it will phase out gas-powered cars by 2035. But now Germany has asked the EU to exempt cars powered by synthetic fuel. Italy has supported this request with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni arguing that phasing out gas-powered cars would put thousands of jobs at risk. 

Spain’s environmental transition minister has said that this is a disappointing request and that it could derail the plan. In fact, this did derail a vote that was scheduled for March 7. That vote was delayed on fears that Germany would abstain.

Can you males make a baby? They can if they're mice. 

Scientists in Japan created baby mice with eggs from two male mice. The male mice didn't have eggs of course. The scientists used cells from the male bodies and made eggs. 

Could this be done in humans? Maybe. Scientists say that they could theoretically do this with two human males by using cells from their skin to make an egg. They said that we might be 10 years away from that happening.
