A Conservative already knew this but these people obviously didn’t.
What will 2021 bring? ‘Democrats who want to browbeat (or worse) Trump supporters in Truth and Reconciliation Commissions and silence all dissent from the hard-Left’s agenda know better than to come before America and say, “We want to destroy the First Amendment and stifle the freedom of expression that is the indispensable foundation of any free society.” Instead, they strike a pose of unassailable piety and tell us how victimized groups need to be protected from “hate,” and that “hate speech” must be eradicated. That approach works like a charm: after all, who wants to speak out in favor of “hate speech”? But George Orwell’s 1984 has become the Democrats’ playbook, and the “hate speech” shell game is a quintessential example of how they manipulate language to hide their authoritarian agenda.
Nevertheless, that agenda was unmistakable Monday, when Middle East Eye reported that “Democratic senators are calling on Facebook to ‘do more’ to mitigate the spread of anti-Muslim bigotry, after the social media giant was criticised for failing to address attacks against the faith group on multiple occasions, including the aftermath of the Christchurch shootings.” Fifteen Senators, including Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, penned a strongly-worded letter to Facebook top dog Mark Zuckerberg, telling him that Facebook “needed to immediately enforce its community standards to address anti-Muslim hate and ban the use of event pages for the purpose of ‘harassment, organizing, and violence’ against the Muslim community.”
Who could be against such a thing, right? No one is in favor of bigotry, particularly when these “attacks against the faith group” have led to violence, as in the Christchurch shootings. No one is in favor of “harassment, organizing, and violence,” whether against the Muslim community or anyone else. So these fifteen Senators are on the side of the angels, are they not?
The letter graciously acknowledged that “Facebook has announced efforts to address its role in the distribution of anti-Muslim content in some of these areas.” However, not enough has been done: “Nevertheless, it is not clear that the company is meaningfully better positioned to prevent further human rights abuses and violence against Muslim minorities today.”
Farhana Khera of the activist group Muslim Advocates stated that more needed to be done: “Since 2015, Muslim Advocates had warned Facebook that the platform’s event pages were being used by violent militias and white nationalists to organize armed rallies at mosques. We need to know what Facebook plans to do to end the anti-Muslim hate and violence enabled by their platform – and end it now.”’https://www.jihadwatch.org/2020/11/fifteen-senators-including-fauxcahontas-and-bernie-want-facebook-to-ban-anti-muslim-hate?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=the_2020_11_23_jihad_watch_daily_digest&utm_term=2020-11-23
‘President Trump promised to make America great again, but as the 2020 election disputes continue, America could go in two sharply divergent directions: it could indeed become great again, or it could become Venezuela.
Sidney Powell explained one of the many alleged anomalies of the 2020 presidential election on the Rush Limbaugh show: “Trump votes were programmed to switch to Biden ahead of time, but Trump’s votes were so high, it didn’t work right because they didn’t set their algorithms high enough.” Could that explain the sudden pauses in the counting of votes in crucial swing states on election night? Trump was too far ahead, and adjustments had to be made to ensure a Biden victory? Powell has also released information claiming that Smartmatic voting software, which was used extensively in the United States in the 2020 election, was manipulated in Venezuela to ensure the victories of socialists Hugo Chavez and Nicholas Maduro.
That isn’t evidence that this software was used in a fraudulent manner in the United States, but it raises the question, and we will likely not get definitive answers until the disputed election reaches the Supreme Court, and even then the arguments will go on. Nevertheless, the ongoing revelations about the 2020 election are more than enough, if not to overturn the result, then at very least to underscore the fact that whether or not President Trump’s efforts to throw out illegal votes and stop voter fraud this year succeed, America will have no more free elections if this problem is not thoroughly addressed, and concrete actions taken to ensure that future elections are tamper-proof.
Thoroughgoing electoral reform, however, depends upon all concerned parties actually wanting fair elections. Therefore, if the Democrats control the presidency, and even worse, the presidency and both houses of Congress, any effective action to ensure an honest electoral process is extraordinarily unlikely. If the Leftist establishment returns to total hegemony by means of electoral fraud, it is not likely to give up its most effective weapon in its now five-year struggle against the evil Orange Man who (almost?) ruined all of their arrangements.
And so it’s all on the line now with Sidney Powell, Rudolph Giuliani, and the rest of Trump’s legal team. Those who are dismissing even the possibility that the presidential election could have been rigged lack a historical sense. America has had fraudulent elections before, even at the presidential level: as Rating America’s Presidents details, Andrew Jackson raged (although he almost certainly wasn’t as unhinged as Hillary) for four years against what he called the “corrupt bargain” that he charged John Quincy Adams had made with Henry Clay to secure victory in the 1824 election, which went to the House of Representatives; he then rode that rage to a landslide victory over Adams in 1828.’https://www.jihadwatch.org/2020/11/the-disputed-election-of-2020-could-make-america-into-venezuela?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=the_2020_11_20_jihad_watch_daily_digest&utm_term=2020-11-20
The Left/communist/Marxist/Loonie/Lovies are out to keep all those with whom they disagree (usually conservatives) silent! Here at whatyareckon we don’t have that many followers but who knows what gets up the nose of the Left? We’ll wait and see but ‘WordPress has deplatformed the Conservative Treehouse (CTH), the blog announced on Friday.
The website, that has existed for ten years, has been denied hosting by WordPress.com, a hugely popular blogging service owned by Automattic – in yet another reminder of why reliance on corporate and centralized Silicon Valley services and platforms can be a mistake for any independent creator or publisher.
According to the site, WordPress informed the site’s owners that their content was “incompatible” with the company’s terms of use, giving them until December 2 to move the site to another hosting service.
Just like Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, and others often take down content and issue bans against users without providing any concrete reason for the decision, CTH said it was hit with deplatforming by WordPress without receiving any proper explanation as to why the content on the site was incompatible with that of the hosting service in question – other than perhaps for its conservative politics?
Citing some of the reasons WordPress might have justifiably removed the site, such as hate speech, abuse, violent or graphic content of any kind, the blog post concluded that CTH contains none of these, instead focusing on providing a “library of factual citations and explanations.”
The post also describes the site as a place of discussion and assembly, that has more than 200,000 subscribers and between half a million and a million daily unique visitors, and therefore sees its deplatforming as a threat to the right to “truthful assembly.”
The timing of the decision made by WordPress – immediately after the US election and after an article exploring what’s referred to as the Covid agenda and Biden’s policies – is also viewed as suspect by CTH.
But CTH’s owners pledge that the site will remain online, along with their stated mission they will preserve the content accumulated over the years.’https://reclaimthenet.org/wordpress-deplatforms-popular-blog-the-conservative-treehouse/
Target must have not learned much from the Minneapolis riots. Rather than being sensible Target has gone completely WOKE! The looters that completely destroyed the South Minneapolis Target store ‘…is reopening, Bloomberg reported — but with a focus on serving the needs of black customers.
What are the details?
The interior of the store was overhauled, the outlet said, with the pharmacy moved to the front of the store so elderly customers can easily get their prescriptions and the grocery stocked with spices requested by the local community while the lighting for the crosswalk from the nearby rail station was upgraded, and the entrance was made more inviting with a new mural and plants.
Bloomberg noted that Target is a retailer long associated with white suburban shoppers — and executives said the overhaul is part of an effort to improve its image with black customers. Indeed, the outlet said the Minneapolis store drew shoppers from areas twice as black as a typical Target, according to cellphone data tracked by SafeGraph.
“By being based in Minneapolis — by being based in the eye of the storm of George Floyd — they had a huge responsibility to produce a pretty elaborate plan,” Anthony Thompson, a professor of clinical law and a founding faculty director of the Center on Race, Inequality and the Law at New York University, told Bloomberg of Target’s decision to raze and reconstruct the store.
More from the outlet:
It’s not exactly clear why this specific store was targeted; protesters originally headed there for milk to relieve the pain from being tear gassed. But in rebuilding, Target realized the surrounding neighborhood had never been asked point-blank whether the store that’s been there since 1976 was serving it well. It wasn’t.
The litany of complaints was long. And even though a remodel in 2018 fixed earlier perceptions the store was dirty, poorly stocked and a bit of an afterthought, some White residents in the Longfellow neighborhood would still drive to a different Target instead, derogatorily referring to the location — and its customers — as “Tar-ghetto.”
So the roughly $80 billion corporation did something it hadn’t before: met with Black residents, employees and community organizers (over Zoom; it’s 2020 after all) to ask what they wanted to see in the reconstructed store.
Target hired a contracting company owned by a Somali-American woman and built some of those neighborhood requests into its blueprints. It also added shutters to the store that can come down in case of future emergencies.
Bloomberg added that Target laid out the goals of its new racial justice committee in August, including the need to “create environments where Black guests feel overtly welcome,” which implied many didn’t.
Kiera Fernandez, the corporation’s chief diversity and inclusion officer and vice president of human resources, acknowledged to the outlet that Target does have a reputation of catering to white shoppers — but that it’s working on building more relationships with black entrepreneurs by stocking their products. But Bloomberg noted that Target hasn’t committed to signing the 15% Pledge, a promise to fill shelves with that percentage of products made by black-owned brands.’https://www.theblaze.com/news/target-reopening-looted-ransacked-minneapolis-store-with-emphasis-on-serving-black-customers?utm_source=theblaze-dailyPM&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Daily-Newsletter__PM%202020-11-12&utm_term=ACTIVE%20LIST%20-%20TheBlaze%20Daily%20PM
Have we as a society come so far that cheating is normal?
‘“We keep hearing the drumbeat of ‘Where is the evidence?’ Right here, Sean,” McEnany declared, holding up a pile of 234 voter fraud claims from Wayne County, Mich. “These are real people, real allegations, signed with notaries who are alleging the following among other contentions.”
In this one Michigan county alone, the White House official cited a batch of ballots in which 60 percent bore the same signature, 35 ballots had no voter record but were counted anyways, and 50 ballots were run multiple times through a tabulation machine.
McEnany recounted one woman who said her son was deceased but still somehow voted. “These are one of many, many allegations in one county—and a county no less where poll watchers were in many cases threatened with racial harassment. They were pushed out of the way.”
“These are real and anyone who cares about transparency and the integrity of the system should want this to pursue to the discovery phase,” McEnany urged.
Hannity pivoted to McDaniel. “I would imagine if this was the Democrats and the margins were this thin,” he conjured, questioning the number of individuals willing to risk the charge of perjury to sign an affidavit. “That’s a stretch for me.”
“Then you add to that the voting laws about partisan observers can be there for the entire vote count,” he continued. “We know in many states that didn’t happen. I’m trying to wrap my head around how do you remedy this to the point where anybody is going to believe any results that this has any integrity or the people can have confidence in.”
Then Hannity compared the chaos to the race calls in the swing states of Florida and Ohio. McDaniel pointed to the Politico poll that reported that 70 percent of Republicans say they don’t believe the election was free and fair.
“And this is why: it’s been rigged from the beginning,” McDaniel snapped. “It’s been rigged in the sense that they kicked Republicans out of poll watching and observing. Why do you do that if you have nothing to hide?”
She lambasted the mainstream media “that’s rigging it again” by refusing to cover these stories and validate the 11,000 incident reports, the 500 affidavits across several states, and people testifying under oath on how they were disenfranchised.
“It is stealing. When you validate a vote that shouldn’t be in, you are stealing from a voter that voted legally,” the RNC chair emphasized. “And the media right now by refusing to report on this is stealing our faith in the election process. Tell the story. Talk about the people who are being disenfranchised. People across this country deserve to have election integrity.”
McDaniel vowed to pursue the legal battle to the very end. “We can never let this happen again.” Hannity asked McDaniel to elucidate on the incident filings that are vetted by her team before handing the statements over to the attorneys.
“The canvasses aren’t even right now. So during the canvass process in Detroit alone, we are coming across absentee ballots that were cast that have no address, that don’t correlate with the precinct,” McDaniel described the ongoing investigation. “We don’t even have all the information. The data team’s haven’t been able to go in and analyze the software that’s why these subpoenas are so important.”
As news outlets pressure the GOP for evidence, McDaniel asks the public to be patient with the arduous undertaking. “They’re not giving us the time to show it.”
“Then you have states like Pennsylvania where they just threw away signature verification altogether,” McEnany piled on. “These are key methods we use to make sure that people voting are actually the people deserving of the enfranchisement of that ballot.”’https://dcswampwatch.org/watch-kayleigh-mcenany-and-rncs-ronna-mcdaniel-reveal-hundreds-of-affidavits-alleging-voter-fraud/
