One day after Elon Musk took over Twitter, a top European regulator gave the world's richest man a "reality check" about how they will respond if he loosens the platform's content moderation policies.

Researchers say the state-level laws "should be reconsidered to prevent unnecessary violent deaths."

"This is the policy that is most geared to stop all this," liberal Justice Elena Kagan argued in defense of the vaccination requirements. "Why isn't this necessary and grave?"

"Plants and wildlife are going extinct at an unprecedented rate, and it's way past time for our elected leaders to take bold action to protect our planet and all its inhabitants."

"The more sway mega-corporations have over our economy, the more power they have to gouge customers, squeeze Main Street, and exploit workers."

"Ignoring the brutal fiscal reality of the working class for decades has made West Virginia one of the poorest states in America," Warren Gunnels retorted.

"Substantive tax avoidance is still embedded within many large multinationals and nothing less than a root-and-branch reform of international tax rules will remedy the situation," said one critic.

Still, as long as Senate Republicans refuse to support the bill, passing electoral reforms depends on eliminating the filibuster, which conservative Democrats have yet to endorse.

"The government has taken the wholly unjustified decision to deliberately contaminate the Pacific Ocean with radioactive wastes."

"We're coming out of this pandemic like countries come out of world wars, with thousands of dead and devastated economies," said one senator.

"With no end to the pandemic in sight, and a cutoff of nearly all federal unemployment benefits by year's end looming on the horizon, inaction by Congress could mean that millions of American families will enter the New Year with little or no means of support."

Vehicular rallies near polling stations represent a type of voter intimidation that "we haven't seen in our prior federal elections," said one scholar.
