So now we know: Twitter secretly erased conservative voices - and let terrorists and vile vermin tweet freely. It's savage proof the left fears ideas more than actual killers

Not my family's Democrat Party

What else did a few liberals in Silicon Valley deem off-limits for the rest of us?

 

UK Daily Mail   "If free speech is a pillar of democracy, then Twitter should be charged with sabotage, because they've taken sledgehammer to it. And every American has the right to be absolutely outraged.

"The latest 'Twitter Files' drop on Thursday night revealed that partisan extremists at one of America's most influential social media platforms wrapped a torniquet around the vein of free thought and wrenched it tight.

"And to add insult to injury, the whole time, Twitter was lying about it.

"Then-CEO Jack Dorsey told Congress that he had no idea why conservatives were moaning about being silenced – a.k.a. 'shadow banned.'

"Well, guess what? Conservatives were right.

"We learned that in addition to shutting down bombshell reporting, like the New York Post's exclusive on Hunter Biden's laptop, Twitter executives were also suppressing individual Americans who didn't blindly parrot liberal orthodoxy.

"The account of Stanford professor, Dr. Jay Battachyara's was muffled for sharing thoughtful criticism of COVID lockdowns.". . .

America's kids were kept out of school and in masks. Businesses were destroyed and churches shuttered, and our dying were kept from seeing family, but Twitter pronounced these ideas verboten.

No wonder famously unprofitable, woke Twitter had trouble making money. ". . .

Jackson Lee: Arms Dealer Freed in Griner Swap ‘Has Not Killed Americans’ — ‘His Weapons Might Have Been Used to Kill Americans’ Plus a RedState Update

A silly nation chooses silly leaders

Breitbart  "On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The ReidOut,” Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) stated that Viktor Bout, the arms dealer who was serving time in prison for agreeing to supply weapons to U.S. agents posing as Colombian terrorists to kill Americans, freed by the Biden administration in the prisoner swap to secure the release of Brittney Griner from Russia, is “a nasty, bad” person, but “He has not killed Americans.” Although, Jackson Lee noted that Bout’s “weapons might have been used to kill Americans.”

"Jackson Lee stated, “Let me say this, no one knows the story of Paul — of the weapons dealer, if you will. And — as the facts would tell them, he was sentenced to 25 years, he served 11 to 16 years, I don’t know the — I can’t remember the exact number. But in actuality, his weapons might have been used to kill Americans. He has not killed Americans. I’m not saying he’s not a nasty, bad guy. But I will tell you that I believe that Americans should know that the sovereignty of their nation will always be behind them and they’ll never be forgotten. Brittney Griner deserved this fight to be put forward. So does Paul Whelan.' ”. . .

According to an original article from NBC, the negotiations for the prisoner swap included an exchange for either LGBTQ+ hero Brittany Griner or U.S. former marine Paul Whelan.

The Russians would swap either U.S. citizen for the return of arms dealer Viktor Bout; however, the White House would have to decide which American they wanted in return.  The White House decided there was greater benefit to getting LGBTQ+ hero Brittany Griner returned, and left Paul Whelan in a Russian prison"

In the original version: “the Kremlin gave the White House the choice of either Griner or Whelan — or none.”

In the stealth revised version: “the Kremlin ultimately gave the White House the choice of either Griner or no one after different options were proposed.”

Even with the modified and carefully worded changes, it looks like Joe Biden chose the trans basketball player over the former U.S. marine, which, given the arc of history, does seem to make sense.

UPDATE:  Even Russian State TV Ridicules Biden and US for Lopsided Brittney Griner Trade

Russia TV quoted: “His first problem is that he is white,” Solovyova retorted, meaning that Whelan wasn’t given priority in negotiations because of his skin color. Simonyan continued:

"His second problem is he is a man. His third problem: He is a heterosexual.

"This is not something that can be forgiven today. It’s just a catastrophe. Yes, here Griner beats him in every aspect.". . .

. . ."Simonyan is a regime puppet, to be sure, and the YouTube site

 Russian Media Monitor (which uploaded the footage) points out several lies in the segment. I’m not here to be a cheerleader for the communist dictatorship or its lying media. The point is, however, that Biden and his cohorts have made a mockery out of the U.S. with this ill-considered trade because of their obsessive focus on “identity”–even when we’re dealing with dire geo-political events—all the while failing to negotiate the release of Whelan.". . .

UPDATE:Democrat Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee on Russian Arms Dealer Viktor Bout: “In Actuality, His" Weapons Might’ve Been Used to Kill Americans, But He Has Not Killed Americans”  "Democrat Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, one of the dumbest women in Congress, appeared on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” with Joy Reid to discuss the Brittney Griner swap.

"Joe Biden on Thursday announced he traded the world’s most wanted fugitive, Russian Viktor Bout, for pot-smoking anti-American baller Brittney Griner.

"Meanwhile, Paul Whelan, a former Marine who is now 52, is still imprisoned in Russia.

"Democrat Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee defended the trade on Sunday.

“I 'n actuality, [Viktor Bout’s] weapons might’ve been used to kill Americans, but he has not killed Americans.” Sheila Jackson Lee said.". . .

Poll: Ron DeSantis Leads Donald Trump by 5 Points in Potential Matchup

 Breitbart

"Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) leads former President Donald Trump by five points in a potential 2024 Republicans primary matchup, a Yahoo News/YouGov poll found Thursday.

"If the primary were held today, 47 percent of registered Republican voters would support DeSantis, while 42 percent say they would back Trump.

"According to YouGov polling, DeSantis has lost 13 points in recent weeks nationwide. YouGov polling from mid-November shows DeSantis was leading by 18 points (51-33 percent).

"When voters were asked, “If your state’s 2024 Republican primary for president were held today, who would you vote for?” Trump led DeSantis by five points (35-30 percent).

"Respondents were also asked, “Who do you think has a better chance of winning the 2024 general election for president?” Republicans notched Trump with a greater chance of winning the presidency than another Republican (48-38 percent).

"When the poll asked the same question specifically between Trump and DeSantis, 46 percent of Republicans said Trump. Forty-two percent said DeSantis.". . .

How Many Innocent People Are Going to Die Because of the Griner Deal?

 PJ Media

Anyone who doesn’t believe that “what” Griner is instead of “who” she is got her released for an international terrorist who enjoys killing Americans is being dishonest. Biden can spin Griner’s release all he wants, but the fact is, Putin and the Russians took Biden’s obsession with identity politics and threw it back in his face.

"Viktor Bout — “The Merchant of Death” or “The Lord of War” — is not a very nice man. He sells arms to groups that kill innocent people. And according to all accounts, he particularly loves killing Americans.

"Just before he was arrested in a brilliant sting operation by the DEA in 2008, Bout told the informants who were just about to rat him out “that he had been fighting the U.S. for about 15 years and that the U.S. is an enemy,” and that “He was very eager and anxious to carry out this arms deal to kill Americans.”

"Way to go, Joe.

"Viktor Bout sold arms to just about any enemy of America who had the cash to pay him, including militants in Africa, Al Qaeda, and the Taliban. And now he’s free, and he owes Vladimir Putin and Russia big time.

"How do you think Russia is going to want to be paid back? Bout now belongs to Putin — lock, stock, and both barrels.

"Derek Maltz, a former Drug Enforcement Agency agent who helped lead the team that eventually took down Bout 14 years ago in Thailand, believes Bout now poses an even greater threat to Americans now than he did before his capture.

" 'The Lord of War is back in the game. He’s back out there with the ability to cause harm and destruction around the world,” Maltz said in an interview with Politico. “And now he’s going to be way smarter because he knows some of the techniques that have been used against him.”

"Maltz is happy Griner made it home, as most of us are. But Vladimir Putin is probably laughing behind his hand after getting the best of Joe Biden.". . .

 The Biden regime needed a win.  It didn't bat an eye.  It just sent an international arms merchant back to Putin's open arms and said, To hell with the Marine.

Brittney Griner Negotiator Says Putin Overruled Double Swap at Last Minute .

. . ."Richardson told CBC that he traveled to Russia to negotiate the prisoner exchange with Russian officials he had met during his official government roles, but said that "eventually in Russia every decision is made by Putin."

The supreme outrage of Biden's idiotic prisoner swap with Putin

. . .If it was truly a case of "our choice was Brittney or no one at all," as stated by Karine Jean-Pierre in a recent press briefing, for my money, any administration with any backbone and love for America would have chosen to walk away from a terrible deal that played into Putin's hands and gave him back a man — an asset known as "the Merchant of Death," with a river of blood on his hands — who is sure to now aid in helping Russia secure the best armaments for his war against the Ukrainians.  Getting Brittney Griner back was worse than getting no one back, since one can full well expect her to go right back to her anti-American activism on the basketball court after the shock of her experience wears off and relief sets in with the restored comfort of "home."  Viktor Bout will go back about his business of spilling gallons of blood across the world. . .

From The Babylon Bee: Biden Decides To Read 'Art Of The Deal' After Getting Ripped Off In Griner Trade

. . ." 'I mean look at this guy. He looks like he makes deals every day!" said Biden, holding the book up proudly. "I promise you I'm going to be just like him. A real go-getter!"

"Whelan's family initially expressed disappointment when American authorities first traded notorious Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout, also known as "The Merchant of Death," for WNBA athlete Brittney Griner, but are now hopeful that a deal can be made. "If anyone can bring Paul home it's Donald Trump," said Paul's twin brother David." . . .

Brittney Griner Flees Back to Russia in Terror After Seeing American Flag

Several activists sided with Griner. "They let her sit in Russia for almost a year," said nonbinary LGBTQ activist Nicole Owens. "And they only traded her for one guy. That's an insult. She is worth at least seven Russian Arms dealers." Other activists blamed the WNBA. "She barely makes a living wage," said Women's Rights activist Lena Hogan. "Her WNBA contract is only for $220,000 a year. She has to go to Russia to make any real money."

"The former news agency called NBC was caught editing its story about Brittney Griner, and doing so, naturally, in a way that benefits the Biden White House.

"The original story is titled, “Family of Paul Whelan, American imprisoned in Russia, says they were warned about Brittney Griner’s release,” and lays out how the family of former Marine Paul Whelan is dealing with the news that he was not part of this prisoner swap. Whelan has been imprisoned by Russia since 2018.

"According to the story, Whelan’s family knew it would be Griner who was released in exchange for the notorious “Merchant of Death,” Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout. Bout has served about half of his 25-year U.S. prison sentence.

"Griner, a U.S. Woman’s Basketball Champion, has been imprisoned in Russia only since February. Griner pleaded guilty to possession of cannabis vape cartridges and was sentenced to nine years.

"For reasons no one needs to explain, people are outraged that it was Griner who was released as opposed to Whelan.". . .

Brinton Is Busted Again. What Exactly Are the Qualifications for Working for Biden? (Updated)

"PJ Media "And, here we go again. A felony arrest warrant for grand larceny has been issued for Department of Energy official Sam Brinton. Brinton is the deputy assistant secretary of the Office of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition. The reason for the warrant? Stealing luggage. Again. 8 News Now said that the latest theft occurred at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas. Brinton was placed on leave for stealing luggage at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport this past September. He originally claimed the first incident was a mistake, but video footage emerged of him removing the tag from the luggage, according to the Washington Examiner. He was also seen using the bag from the first heist on two other trips.

"Along with his two thefts, the website LGBTQ Nation has called out Brinton for possibly lying about child abuse and traumatic conversion therapy. Brinton has also made headlines for being non-binary, his penchant for “puppy play,” and his participation in sex seminars.

"So how does such a man end up appointed to a position in the federal government? He’s non-binary. In the never-ending quest to upend everything in its sights, it would appear that the Biden administration wanted to make sure that, as it did with Dr. Rachel Levine, it was seen promoting LGBTQ people to important posts. This isn’t to say that an LGTBQ person couldn’t do those jobs. I’ve known plenty of LGBTQ people who were savvy and successful businessmen and women. They were literate, conversant, and honest. But the Biden administration wants to secure its place as the most left-wing presidency in history and out-Obama Obama.

"On PJ Media and across various websites, there are almost-daily stories on how White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has made such a hash of her job that she makes Harpo Marx look like Winston Churchill by comparison. While the Biden administration is eager to go as woke as possible, could it not find non-binary people, people of color, or women for those posts who have the requisite skill sets and basic values such as not stealing and lying? Or people without agendas? Or does character even matter, when color and sexuality are the first two qualifications?". . .

UPDATE: 

Now We Know: While Twitter Was Busy Silencing Conservatives, It Let Child Porn Fester (UPDATED< 12/10/22)

 Issues & Insights

Apparently, silencing conservatives is more important to them than protecting children.

"Since Elon Musk took over, Twitter has been kicking more people off its network. Except this time around it isn’t conservatives getting the boot. It’s those trafficking in child porn.

"This is what the left and woke companies are freaking out about?

"Cybersecurity firm Ghost Data reported over the weekend that Twitter had nearly doubled the number of accounts it’s suspending each day that were sharing child pornography.

“ 'In the past 24 hours, Twitter started to step up its efforts and took down 44,000 suspicious accounts, including over 1,300 profiles that tried to bypass detection using codewords and text in images to communicate. Zero tolerance,” said Ghost Data founder Andrea Stoppa, who has been monitoring this, in a tweet.

“ 'Twitter is now fighting vigorously against child sexual exploitation content, it’s thanks to one person that set it as the #1 priority: Elon Musk,” she tweeted.

“It is true,” Musk said, “Twitter has done more to stop child exploitation in the last month than probably the last 10 years. That’s insane. It kind of blows my mind, frankly.”

"Long before Musk took control, Twitter knew it had a massive child porn problem on its hands but was doing little to stamp it out.

"In September, tech news site The Verge got its hands on 58 pages of internal documents about the network’s child porn problem. Among them was a document from February 2021 stating that “While the amount of (child sexual exploitation) online has grown exponentially, Twitter’s investment in technologies to detect and manage the growth has not.”. .

The prisoner swap of the century, for all the wrong reasons   "The incompetent Biden administration decided to show how "benevolent" it is by proposing a trade deal with Russia, an adversary of the United States.

"You would think this deal would unimpeachably benefit our nation.  However, nothing that the Biden administration has done has been salutary for the United States.  In this given "trade," Joe Biden offered Russia one of its most effective arms dealers, Viktor Bout.  For those not aware, Viktor Bout was imprisoned by the United States in 2011 on the grounds that he was threatening American lives.

"One would imagine that the United States would be getting an asset, too.  Perhaps a Marine held hostage by Russia?  So whom did the United States get in return?  Well, we got a WNBA player by the name of Brittney Griner, who was imprisoned several months ago on drug charges.

"Griner has been vocal about her disdain for the United States.  In fact, during several of her inferior games, Griner infamously decided not to stand for the playing of the National Anthem.  The anthem is something everyone should stand for; it represents the sacrifices that thousands have endured in order for us to be free.

"Personally, I was content with Griner being in Russia.  After all, she hates our country.". . .

After Brittney Griner swapped for Russian arms dealer, message sent is that woke politics has its perks   . . .The remaining Americans in Putin's prison state can probably expect nothing. That's created a lot of resentment and criticism, given that some are given more than others from the state of Biden. Where's the next Bout in jail for Putin to spring now that the FBI has turned its attention to MAGA supporters instead of Russian spies. They don't have anyone.". . .  Comment to this post from knowshistory:  

Thank you, uncle Joe. For 10 months I have cried myself to sleep over the plight of poor anti-american racist brittany, but now at the cost of the freedom of just one more enemy of our nation and population, poor America-hating Brittney can return to a hero's welcome and resume hating America. Good job, Joe. That's why you were fraudulently installed in the white house by our nation's enemies. too bad Charles Manson wasn't available for the job. He would have done the same thing, but wouldn't be as embarrassing as you are. [spelling corrected by TD]

. . ."Then there are the merits of the deal itself. Griner will be greeted as a hero when she touches down in the United States, but the Russian who will walk free is a dangerous thug who has earned his nickname: "The Merchant of Death." His release will do grievous harm to American national security—he was convicted for attempting to sell weapons to Colombian terrorists who would have used them to target American troops—and Politico reports that Pentagon officials are already raising the specter that his release will fuel "conflicts across the world." Griner is no hero.". . .

. . ."Brittney Griner is a cliché America-hating lefty who was stupid enough to pack drugs for a trip to a hostile foreign nation. If ever anyone needed a harsh lesson about why America is better, it’s this idiot. She should have had to serve out her labor camp penalty in Russia until she was ready to wake up and sing “The Star-Spangled Banner” every day.

President LOLEightyonemillion pretended to still care about Whelan when crowing about Griner’s release, but it rang hollow. Bout was a HUGE bargaining chip. The U.S. should have been able to get a lot more than a dumb junkie broad for him. Paul Whelan is still incarcerated in Russia because our idiot communist overlords prioritize LGBTQ checklists über alles.

?Heaven help the Republic."

"Make war on coal and nuclear power. Drain the strategic petroleum reserve to make the pain for consumers more bearable for midterm election advantage.

"Cancel the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge oil and gas field. Block pipelines like the Keystone oil pipeline and the Constitution natural gas line.

Does anybody really think a McDaniel-led GOP would stand strong against this transgender juggernaut, let alone more politically tricky issues? 

"Illustrating that they won’t take their own side in a dispute, Republicans typically choose as their party chieftains hacks who betray little evidence of having read the GOP platform and even less evidence of supporting it. Current Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel falls into that category. She appears as conversant with the party platform as the late Bob Dole, who famously said that he never bothered to read it.

'Like previous RNC chairs, many of whom now appear on Republican-bashing networks (the unctuous Michael Steele on MSNBC defines this group), McDaniel conceives of her role as a ratifier of the “uniparty” consensus. The GOP’s recent capitulation to the Democrats on gay marriage is Exhibit A of McDaniel’s mindset. She had signaled weakness to the Dems by tweeting out her enthusiasm for “Gay Pride Month” early in the Biden presidency. Those tweets alone disqualify her from another term as RNC chair, given that they reveal her basic contempt for the party’s platform, which is staunchly opposed to the LGBTQ agenda.'

"It is not as if gay marriage stands as a marginal issue. It goes to the center of the GOP’s supposed moral philosophy. Can anyone imagine the Democrats electing as party chief a figure who opposes the party’s platform on a substantial moral issue? That is inconceivable, and for a simple reason: Elite Democrats fervently believe in their platform. They would never dream of elevating a gay marriage foe to lead their party.

"I once heard a GOP insider refer to McDaniel as a de facto lobbyist for the gay lobby who surrounds herself with gay figures from the flashy fundraising world. 

"I once heard a GOP insider refer to McDaniel as a de facto lobbyist for the gay lobby who surrounds herself with gay figures from the flashy fundraising world. Cut from country club cloth, McDaniel, a niece of Mitt Romney, clearly views the religious Right as insufficiently woke and problematic. At the beginning of the Biden presidency, she indicated this openly through her outrageous tweets in honor of LGBTQ causes. But more recently, she has behaved more circumspectly and has even tried to throw members of the base off her liberal scent by feigning concern about the imposition of transgender propaganda on elementary school students. What a crock. After all, transgenderism grew out of the very gay causes McDaniel supports, causes that have long marinated in the subjectivism liberals used to assert that human beings have an inherent right to choose their sexuality and their sex. The moderates McDaniel represents may object to the most outlandish parts of the transgender agenda, but they still approve of much of it, particularly any transgenderism involving adults.". . .

 Thanks For Letting Us Know, Joe: Your True Border Policy Is Chaos

"During the last presidential election, then-candidate Joe Biden got away with trashing then-President Donald Trump for his border policies. After this week’s trip to Arizona without visiting the border mess he created, we finally got proof the border nightmare’s no accident. It’s policy.

"Biden’s recent sojourn in the Grand Canyon State cleared up a conundrum for us: Was Biden’s destructive border policy a result of age-related mental issues and incompetence? Or is it what he wanted all along?

"The answer came when he was questioned by Fox’s Peter Doucy about his curious Arizona itinerary, which brought him to Phoenix, just 100 miles from the border: “Why go to a border state and not visit the border?” Doocy asked.

"Biden’s response: “Because there are more important things going on. They’re going to invest billions of dollars in a new enterprise.”

“ 'More important things” than millions of undocumented people, including some affiliated with terror groups, crossing our border? More important than the hundreds of migrants who died on the journey, or were sold into virtual slavery by human traffickers?

"More important than the thousands of Americans who will die from overdoses of fentanyl that had been carried across the border by members of Mexico’s vicious drug cartels, which now also control the illegal immigration business, pocketing billions of dollars?". . .

Back in 2020: Joe Biden's Top Ten Mentally Deficient Moments - National File

. . ..Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden is losing his mind in public. Unlike the classic movie Network, wherein an aging news anchor pours out his soul and righteously condemns our shallow artificial culture, Biden’s public meltdown mostly consists of spouting half-remembered anecdotes, confusing basic historical details, threatening to fight everyday Americans, and generally acting like a bewildered crank. Biden, who suffered multiple brain aneurysms in 1988, is basically liable to say anything out on the campaign trail, creating a precarious situation for a Democrat Party that has inexplicably made him their presumptive nominee.

Biden’s mental woes growing and other commentary (nypost.com)   " When it “plays out on the world stage,” President Biden’s “fatuity . . . can be downright horrifying,” notes Spectator World’s Amber Athey. At his meeting Tuesday with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Biden’s staff “made sure he was armed with a laminated note card,” reminding him “to welcome Johnson to the White House and speak positively about the relationship between the UK and the US. An easy thing to forget for a president, apparently.” But “most shameful” was how Biden’s staff, after BoJo took some questions from the UK press, “cut the British PM off mid-sentence, yelling at the media to leave the room. Biden eventually ­appeared prepared to respond to a question about the border from CBS’ Ed O’Keefe, but the wranglers continued to shout,” so his answer went unheard. “Biden’s mental deterioration must be even worse than we realize if his staff members are willing to treat foreign leaders with wanton disrespect to prevent him speaking to the press.”

For some blatant gaslighting, see this liberal praise for Biden's ability to overcome "stuttering" and those who question him are "ugly" and "ableist".
