1/1 On @seanhannity last night (at 5:56 of this clip), @SenTedCruz said that the Hayes-Tilden Commission was "charged with reviewing the evidence and making a determination about the disputed ballots." That's incorrect. The Commission was tasked with determining which rival ...

HAPPENING NOW: I'm on the call now where Derrek Evans is having an initial appearance before Magistrate Eifert. They are reading the allegations out loud.

They are laying out, second by second, what was seen on the since deleted video posted to Evans' Facebook live-stream.

Also talking about other posts on Evans' FB page leading up to the Jan. 6 protest in D.C.

Now they are reading Evans' "official statement" where he said he was an independent member of the media.

1/13 Doubt anyone who should read this will, but here goes-We had @FOXnews on 24/7 every day for years.
Recorded so many great shows to watch when we had time at night.
Then BOOM
-They fired Glenn Beck
-Then the Meghan Kelly fiasco
-Then Brett Baier's show died
-Then they fired

1./ Oh look! @ScotlandLgb have started 2021 as we mean to continue: opposing gender identity nonsense. We responded to a letter from the lavishly funded lobby group @LGBTIScotland. They’d complained about our ads in the Herald with a bunch of unsubstantiated assertions. 👇

2./ Tim Hopkins claimed @ALLIANCELGB doesn’t even represent a minority position among LGB peeps. Rich given Equality Network itself isn’t a representative body. It’s more a job creation scheme funded by the Scottish govt to keep lobbyists like Hopkins from the dole queue.

3./ The govt funnels tax payers money into Equality Network’s coffers so it can then lobby for the anti-gay, misogynistic and child harming policies the politicians would be a tad embarrassed to champion otherwise. I wonder why Tim i$ so worried about u$. 💷💷💷

4./ We pointed out we’ve thousands of passionate supporters after just a year; which is a better track record than the fruitcakes at @stonewalluk who after 30 years are set on destroying the legal definition and therefore effectively the protections for same sex attracted people.

5./ They’re no longer really a gay organisation; more a trans obsessed cash machine that takes lucre from the likes of Goldman Sachs in effect to campaign for under 16s to be deprived chemically of a healthy and normal puberty. “Acceptance By Hormone Disruption”?

Alright, folks. You may have seen that the FDA was in a fight with distilleries last week.

Let's unpack what happened, why it happened, and why it's now resulting in some extremely unusual behavior by HHS.

Thread below. Follow if you're interested.

If you're like most people, you might have stumbled across a few news items in this past week talking about how the big-bad-FDA was deciding to screw over distilleries with a $14,060 fee.

It should be noted that the only reason distilleries were being charged this fee was because they had been permitted by the FDA to make hand sanitizer.

It basically sounded like "no good deed goes unpunished by the government." Reddit's

The problem is that this is a wildly incomplete picture of what happened and why it happened.

So let's look at what did happen, and you can decide for yourself where the blame lies.

Let's start with some regulatory background here.

Hand sanitizer is regulated as an over-the-counter (OTC) product. Under that regulatory approach, entities which adhere to an FDA "monograph" may market an OTC drug without obtaining explicit FDA approval.
