by #WillFritz & #JoshIsrael in the #AmericanIndependent:
"Seventeen GOP lawmakers are particularly vocal in their attacks on the LGBTQ community. They have misgendered people, questioned the right of trans people to exist, attacked drag queen story times, and promoted the dangerous “groomer” libel, falsely tying LGBTQ people to child sexual abuse.
"Sixteen of those 17 lawmakers earned ratings of zero from the Human Rights Campaign for the 2021-2022 session. Utah Sen. Mike Lee received a 5% score."

But enforcing those rules would be hard - merely *detecting* cheating would be hard. A simpler - and more effective - approach is to simply *remove* the conflict of interest.
Writing on @eff's Deeplinks blog this week, I explain how the #AMERICAAct - introduced by Senator #MikeLee, with bipartisan cosponsors from #ElizabethWarren to #TedCruz (!) - can do just that:

I. Break up ad-tech: Following the lead of Senator #MikeLee's #AMERICAAct, we must end the ad-tech sector's self-dealing. Ad-tech scoops up 51% of every ad-dollar. That's thanks to the ad-tech companies practice of offering marketplaces in which they represent both advertisers *and* publishers: that's like a game where the referee pays the salaries of the head coaches for *both* teams.

@rbreich Henceforth and forever to be known as #AntiDemocracy #Crow-Backed #MikeLee.
A link tax only pays for so long as the tech giants remain dominant and continue to extract the massive profits that make them capable of paying the tax. But legislative action to fix the ad-tech markets, like #MikeLee's ad-tech breakup bill (cosponsored by both #TedCruz *and* #ElizabethWarren!) would shift power to publishers, and with it, money:

He's "seeking answers" because we all know how important Utah Senator personal Twitter accounts must be. Poor thing. Hope he's ok.

US Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) pro-insurrectionist and anti-American, when not busy overturning elections, threatened Japanese PM over Twitter.
Fooking Whiskey Tango! What an embarrassment.

Here is some good advice to the Democratic Party.
From now on, and until Election Day, they should play, replay and play again Sen. Mike Lee saying he wants to kill Social Security and pull it out by its roots. Make us sick of it.

Dear #MikeLee - We have the proof.
Mastodonians....spread this far and wide....call Mike Lee's office and play it for him!
@jcrabapple seriously. If you have a legit position, then own it. I’m not at all opposed to the changing of positions in DC. It’s how shit gets done - it used to be called compromise. But if you have a legit position I would expect one to at least represent. This is just a bitch move by #MikeLee at the #sotu2023
(R) Senator #MikeLee, who clutched his pearls in shock during, when #POTUS #DarkBrandon called out the fact that RepubliCONS are playing Russian Roulette w/ threat to #default on the #DebtiLimit, apparently forgot his entire reason for running for Congress in the first place. #SOTU #SOTU2023 #GOPeconomicTerrorism #GOPlies

REPUBLICANS HAVE LONG CALLED FOR THE SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE CUTS THEY ARE NOW OUTRAGED BY
Joe Biden’s assertion that Republicans want to gut major entitlements was met with jeers and boos among GOPers.
