Not gonna fight on Bluesky about this but there are a number of damning things Amacher said that he likely would not have said if journalists weren't in that chat to pepper him with questions. I can't take full credit because I wasn't the only one but yikes have some perspective.

Is Jesse Singal accused of doing something wrong here? 🤔 It sounds like he's just relaying the facts of what he heard from the originator of the Talarico hoax, and asked a relevant question or two.
