American Thinker, by David Solway — July 8, 2019

Excerpt:

Should First Amendment rights be extended to Big Tech corporations to publish and censor as they please?  This is a question that has agitated the discussion on whether antitrust legislation should be applied to infogiants such as Google, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, Amazon, Pinterest and many others that have cornered the market on a public resource, information, and an essential human activity, the consumption of information. A solution to the problem of data sequestration and restricted access practiced by these companies is to rebadge them either as publishers or, alternatively, as public utilities.

……………………………………………..

Wishing to establish fairness in information exchange — the lifeblood of a democratic nation — is the very opposite of fascism. The fact is that suppressing users on political grounds is itself a fascist — or, more accurately, Marxist — strategy that is now the name of the game. Google executive Jen Gennai makes it clear that Google is bent on sidelining supporters of Donald Trump, a practice nothing short of electoral tampering. The great purge against conservatives and free speech advocates is proceeding via tactics like demonetization, shadow banning, the rigging of algorithms, the employment of waffle terms in enforcing company policy (e.g., “community standards”) and outright segregation. This just in from a correspondent:

“On Twitter, a great many right wing accounts are anonymous, and must use certain themes in order to convey our politics. This is necessary because so many of us get suspended or banned. Thus there are code words people use in their tweets and profiles in order to find (or re-find) friends. The lack of identity creates disconnect and loneliness. The result is people mourning banned accounts almost like fallen comrades. Every day new screenshots make the rounds and are shared by those who knew the pseudonymous account in question, the next person whose account has been killed off: an image of their profile with all their tweets gone.”

GOPUSA — July 8, 2019

Excerpts:

President Trump’s citizenship question on the upcoming U.S. census is, contrary to popular opinion, the norm for the decennial survey.

The planned citizenship question asks: “Is this person a citizen of the United States?”

Barack Obama was the first President to exclude a question on citizenship in the U.S. Census.

But today, the Trump administration is being assailed from the Left for its efforts to include the question.

……………………………………..

The charge against Trump is one that demands reframing. – OBAMA was the first to not include a question on citizenship, naturalization, or nativity in almost 200 years. The Trump administration is simply undoing Obama’s 8-year effort to distort the status quo. — (bold and caps emphasis added)

American Thinker, by Thomas Lifson — July 5, 2019

Excerpt:

President Trump holds winning cards on the Census citizenship question, both politically and legally.  An overwhelming majority, 67% of Americans, see such a question as legitimate, and those who want to obscure the difference between citizens and non-citizens have an argument that will not add to the ranks of those voting Democrat in the 2020 presidential race.  Moreover, despite media spin (“American pride has hit an all-time low, a poll finds“) emphasizing the increase in the number of Americans who aren’t proud (almost all of the increase among Democrats, who love America only when a Democrat is president), fully 72% of Americans are “extremely proud” or “very proud” of being an American.

With progressives increasingly defining themselves as anti-American and the Democrats’ presidential field intimidated by the left extreme of their base, President Trump’s struggle to include a citizenship question can be positioned as a fight for the interests of Americans in contrast to the interests of border-violators — especially in light of a convincing legal strategy that somehow escaped the notice of the solicitor general of the United States, Noel Francisco, whose office argues the federal government’s cases in court.

drkatesview, by drkate — July 3, 2019

Excerpt:

The constant harassment of President Trump–and by proxy, ALL Americans–is the “insurance policy” that the corrupt deep state politicians, the lame stream media, and intelligence agencies had planned all along…if Hillary lost the 2016 election, if the disruption and attacks by Antifa didn’t work, and if the Mueller Report failed to “get him”.  We Americans are living this every single day with the constant onslaught of attacks, and it will get worse as we move into the 2020 election.

The Mueller report was a bust and the democrats are so mad they are absolutely losing it.  The deep state will do anything to keep Trump from being reelected in 2020.  By anything, I do mean mass murder, massive illegal immigration, theft of our children, pedophilia, pedovores,  abortion without limits, and otherwise constant assault on our morals, values, and sensibilities. Think about the 3000+ people murdered on 9/11…do you think they* care how many of us die in pursuit of their objectives?

It’s not a “republican or democrat” thing at all, because the deep state establishment republicans are all on board with this.  When the Republicans had the House, the Senate, and the Presidency, why didn’t they act on illegal immigration, infrastructure, or deleting Obamacare? Yes, a few rotten rinos did spoil the whole bunch.

DAILY BEAST, by Pervaiz Shallwani, Kate Briquelet, Harry Siege — July 7, 2019

Jeffrey Epstein was arrested on Saturday and will appear in New York court on Monday to be charged with sex trafficking, according to multiple law enforcement sources.

Excerpt:

Billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was arrested for allegedly sex trafficking dozens of minors in New York and Florida between 2002 and 2005, and will appear in court in New York on Monday, according to three law enforcement sources. Saturday’s arrest by the FBI-NYPD Crimes Against Children Task Force comes about 12 years after the 66-year-old financier essentially got a slap on the wrist for allegedly molesting dozens of underage girls in Florida.

For more than a decade, Epstein’s alleged abuse of minors has been the subject of lawsuits brought by victims, investigations by local and federal authorities, and exposés in the press. But despite the attention cast on his alleged sex crimes, the hedge-funder has managed to avoid any meaningful jail time, let alone federal charges.

Breitbart, by John Nolte — July 6, 2019

Excerpt:

Not since the 1972 discovery that George McGovern’s vice presidential pick, Thomas Eagleton, had been hospitalized and given electroshock treatments have the Democrats had a worse week than the one we just concluded.

Because Democrats live on social media and watch CNN, they don’t know this yet…

THE STAR, by Christopher Sherman, The Associated Press — July 3, 2019

Excerpt:

MEXICO CITY – Hundreds of federal police blocked highways in and around Mexico’s capital Wednesday in open revolt against plans to absorb the officers into the newly formed National Guard, a move that the police fear could upend their jobs.

The protests came as the government officially began deploying the National Guard to try to seal the country’s porous southern border and control immigration and crime. The demonstrations threatened to complicate the formation of the new force, which President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has bet Mexico’s future security on.

Mexican  President Does an End Run Around Soros! Soros Bribed Officials all  FIRED, and Mexico’s UNbribed National Guard Taking Over to STOP ALL  CARAVANS to the USA!

VOAT — Submitted by ‘GodsAngel’ — July 5, 2019

Excerpt:

Mexican President Does an End Run Around Soros!

Soros bribed the Mexican Federal Police to not only NOT STOP the Caravans but to actually ESCORT them to the U.S. Southern Border in air conditioned buses.

Mexican President Bans the Federal Police as a separate unit, and now they are just a part of the National Guard in MEXICO who did NOT take Soros Bribes.

So we are supposed to see REAL action now, like ZERO Illegal Aliens getting through to the U.S.A, rather than just a supposed 30% reduction!

CNN – Opinion, by James A. Gagliano — July 2, 2019

Excerpt:

CNN) Nothing quite exemplifies “tolerance” like the video of masked young people hurling objects and screeching profanities at a young, conservative journalist.

The viral images are sickening. Andy Ngo, a photojournalist and editor at the online magazine Quillette, who has made a cottage industry of exposing instances of manufactured hate crimes, was viciously assaulted while covering an Antifa rally held as a counter-protest to a rally of right-wing groups, including the Proud Boys, in Portland, Oregon. “Antifa” derives from “anti-fascist,” and is associated with aggressive, hard-left activism. The video shows masked protesters circling Ngo, punching and hitting him and dousing him with a “milkshake,” then following him as he flees. One hurls something at his back.

Too often, we are seeing these days an abrogation of civil decency, a proliferation of anarchy and lawlessness. Regular, and potentially lethal, violence by masked-protester assailants is too often excused and condoned by Twitter-warriors. This must not be our new normal.

INFORMATION LIBERATION, by Chris Menihan, July 1, 2019

Excerpt:

The New York Times ran a column over the weekend calling for leftists to go after US Customs and Border Protection agents “in their home communities” to force them to “face consequences” for their work at migrant detention facilities.

Kate Cronin-Furman, a purple-haired feminist who is an “assistant professor of human rights” at the University College London Department of Political Science, wrote in the New York Times:

The Treatment of Migrants Likely ‘Meets the Definition of a Mass Atrocity’

Children are suffering and dying. The fastest way to stop it is to make sure those responsible, including the foot soldiers, face consequences.

June 29, 2019

Those of us who want to stop what’s happening need to think about all the different individuals playing a role in the systematic mistreatment of migrant children and how we can get them to stop participating. […]

The identities of the individual Customs and Border Protection agents who are physically separating children from their families and staffing the detention centers are not undiscoverable. Immigration lawyers have agent names; journalists reporting at the border have names, photos and even videos. These agents’ actions should be publicized, particularly in their home communities.

This is not an argument for doxxing — it’s about exposure of their participation in atrocities to audiences whose opinion they care about.

This is an argument for doxing, unless she doesn’t understand what doxing means. She’s calling for harassing Border Patrol agents — most of whom are Hispanic — at their homes and smearing them as genociders.

PJ MEDIA, by Stephen Kruiser — July 4, 2019

Excerpt:

The Fourth of July is the day we celebrate the glory of the greatest experiment in freedom that the world has ever known. Unless, of course, you work for most broadcast or digital media outlets. Then it’s your job to let everyone know that hot dogs, parades, and fireworks ARE NOT COOL AT ALL.

Some of these tweets are openly hostile, some just aim to sow seeds of division. Leftists’ dislike for America and patriotism is nothing new, they’re just more open about it because they’re blinded by a frothing hatred for President Trump.

Here, in no particular order, are ten “you really shouldn’t be enjoying yourself today” tweets I happened upon.
