From Politico 🇺🇸 The Department of Government Efficiency created its own account on Twitter last November, amassing 4 million followers with a stream of news on contract cancellations and other cuts to the bureaucracy. Elon Musk has posted relentlessly on the social media platform he owns, promoting his own voice on an algorithm he controls.
The Democratic National Committee, meanwhile, started a rapid response account in January with about 121,000 followers, a fraction of DOGE’s reach. Some Democratic groups, like MoveOn.Org and Human Rights Campaign, are posting far less on Twitter — if not leaving the site completely for Bluesky, a left-leaning version of the site with far fewer users and nowhere the same audience reach.
“There is a fight for the attention economy, and today the Republicans are winning. No doubt,” said Dan Sena, a longtime Democratic strategist and former executive director of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

Russians and Ukrainians are both prolific users of Telegram. They rely on the app for channels that act as newsfeeds, group chats (both public and private), and one-to-one communication. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Telegram has remained an important lifeline for both Russians and Ukrainians, as a way of staying aware of the latest news and keeping in touch with loved ones. On December 23rd, 2020, Pavel Durov posted to his channel that the company would need to start generating revenue. In early 2021, he added that any advertising on the platform would not use user data for targeting, and that it would be focused on “large one-to-many channels.” He pledged that ads would be “non-intrusive” and that most users would simply not notice any change.
