How The Republicans Beat Campus Censorship

But let the record reflect that the DNC system, which owns the UNC system, was the enemy of free speech throughout the entire process. Remember that when they call begging for donations.

Mike Adams

"Back in January of 2016, I sent a letter to UNC-Wilmington President Jose Sartarelli, which was copied to all 16 members of the Board of Trustees. I later published the same letter on Townhall.com. In my letter, which you can read here, I accused the university of having at least two policies that clearly violated the First Amendment. I then asked the administration to work with the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) to do an audit of our policies and then revise them towards the goal of attaining a coveted green light rating from FIRE. For those not familiar with the FIRE rating system, a green light simply signifies that a school has no policies that threaten free speech.

"It should go without saying that when I sent my letter to the administration there was no guarantee they would respond. Thus, I was pleasantly surprised when UNCW Board of Trustee Dennis Burgard responded within just a few hours. Burgard, who is a registered Republican, urged the administration to take my letter seriously and contact FIRE for an audit of our policies. Without his support, my letter would have gone nowhere.

" Within the following weeks and months a constructive dialogue took place between FIRE and UNCW’s Office of General Counsel. During that dialogue, it was revealed that I had misstated the number of unconstitutional policies at my university. There were more than just a couple. There were nine. Working together with FIRE, my university abolished eight of them before the beginning of the fall semester of 2016. 

At CNN, Retracted Story Leaves an Elite Reporting Team Bruised

The linked story is here: NY Times

Wow, CNN had to retract big story on “Russia,” with 3 employees forced to resign. What about all the other phony stories they do? FAKE NEWS! Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)

Post News Report introduced the Times' story  . . . "Still, it is unclear to what degree the story was inaccurate. CNN has never said that the article’s reporting was incorrect, and Mr. Zucker made clear on a morning conference call, soon after the retraction, that the network would not go back and report the story again.

"Some journalists inside and outside the network said privately that they believed the story was materially true. But the story also suffered from a lack of clarity. A reader could easily come away with the impression that Mr. Scaramucci himself was under investigation for some kind of illicit dealings with the Russians — an assertion that the article does not explicitly make.

SIGNIFICANT CONSEQUENCES

"The fallout came quickly. The day after the retraction, Rich Barbieri, the editor of CNN’s business and finance site, sent his team an email barring the publication of “any content involving Russia” without editorial approval — “no exceptions.”

"As Breitbart News and other CNN critics gloated over the retraction, Mr. Zucker decided that stern action was necessary to demonstrate to its employees — and to the outside world — that the network would not tolerate such mistakes. The network asked Mr. Lichtblau, Mr. Haris and Mr. Frank to resign." . . .

U.S. soccer team booed in their own country as Mexican fans turn LA into an 'away' game

LA Times

• U.S. goalie Tim Howard swears after trophy ceremony in Spanish
• Majority of 93,000 fans supported Mexico

Dreamers gather

"The 37-year-old Monrovia resident reflected the sentiment of most of the 93,000 strong crowd when he added: 'But yet, I didn't have a choice to come here, I was born in Mexico, and that is where my heart will always be.' "

. . .  

"Long after the game finished Mexico supporters remained, bouncing up and down as they chanted and cheered for their team.

"The American's were not even spared in the trophy ceremony after Mexico's 4-2 win - booed for one final time as they were announced as runners up.

"Speaking after the game, another fan summed up the mood for many American-Mexican fans.

"He said: 'We're not booing the country, we're booing the team.

" 'There is a big difference.' "

Do you recall Obama has said, “These are young people who study in our schools…play with our kids,” he said. “They are Americans in their hearts, their minds, in every single way except one – on paper.”

Really? What about this?  Mexico Soccer Fans Boo National Anthem, Slur Goalie    . . . "Mexican fans by the thousands jeered and whistled during the playing of the Star-Spangled Banner that played over the Estadio Azteca sound system before the United States played Mexico, USA Today reported.

"USA Today reported that most in the stands refused to stand as well. The United States would go on to tie Mexico 1-1 Sunday."

Death of the ‘impeach Trump’ movement

Barry Farber  . . . "Even the dimmer lights among the Democrats were warning their clinically insane protesters that you don’t impeach an American president just because you don’t like him. There has to be a “high crime or misdemeanor” in there somewhere, and for the first few months of Democratic head-banging without benefit of padded cells, there was no such thing.

"All of a sudden in mid-May it looked like the Trump-haters’ fantasy was coming true. The alchemists of ancient times never succeeded in converting ordinary metals into solid gold, but the political alchemists of today’s Democratic Party did succeed in converting vapors into solid “obstruction of justice,” namely, Trump asking then-FBI Director James Comey to “Let the investigation of General Mike Flynn go.” And there was great excitement throughout the Democratic ranks of those who began to hate more intelligently. Not only did they now have a “crime,” they had an independent counsel to investigate it. The No. 2 man in the Justice Department, Rod Rosenstein, appointed former FBI Director Robert Mueller as special counsel. Here’s where flaky history ends and solid guesswork begins!" . . .
