TRUMP EXONERATED OF RUSSIAN COLLUSION, AS I EXPECTED

Robert Mueller, the Special Counsel charged with investigating possible Trump administration collusion with Russia to sway the 2016, just sent the findings of his investigation to the Attorney General and exonerated Trump and all his staff of any such collusion. Of course, the Democrat party and their cronies in the media are besides themselves: many in the media view this report as an insult; some folks, like Rachel Maddow, broke down and cried on national television; many are demanding the Attorney General before Congress to answer for the report and give Democrat Congress members an opportunity to attack his character; and while others are even more determined to find something to use against Trump. It's long past time the nation called the media to account for it's blatant bias and one-sided opposition to Trump and his Republican peers.



This is my original blog entry, dated March 28. 2017. People have to realize that politicians never learn from their mistakes, they will gladly endorse one fishing expedition after another in the hopes of finding some sort of dirt to use on their political opponents. It is the duty of the American voter to use a bit of common sense, and perhaps a bit of wisdom, to discern the truth in these matters and to vote for elected officials that will act with honesty, integrity, and will place the good of the nation before their own interests. Demagogues whose only wish is to attain power, that put their own selfish interests before the interests of the nation, or that promise nonsensical Socialist fantasies, should be recognized for the unethical scam artists that they are, and be rejected at the ballot box. 

INTERNET FREEDOM IS BEING LOST, BUT NOBODY SEEMS TO CARE

I've focused on this issue before, and it's getting worse. My own experiences began when Facebook lost its sense of humor, and began suspending accounts for frivolous things. What will it take for people to realize how dangerous the situation has become?

The big social media sites are selectively choosing who is allowed to use their forums, with a subjective and biased set of standards. Facebook and Twitter banned Alex Jones and several other sites using the false reasoning that such sites spread misinformation, fake news, and contribute to racism and intolerance. However, they have also banned websites, such as Zero Hedge and others, that involve economic and political articles that disagree with government policies and the Progressive/Socialist agenda. Recently, the ISPs have begun talking about the need for censorship,  they are talking about some corporate staffer deciding who may connect to the Internet.

The latest push for Internet censorship began with the live feed posted by the deranged New Zealand mosque killer. Jacinda Ardern, the Prime Minister of New Zealand has demanded social media and other Internet sites be held accountable for not blocking the killer's video. Let's stop and think for a second. Are social media sites supposed to have some magical foresight that would allow them to know the content of a live stream video, before it gets posted? She also managed to quickly ban the private ownership of all semi-automatic rifles in her country. The UK and France have even more restrictive gun laws than New Zealand; however, mass murderers have simply come up with different methods of carrying out their atrocities by using vans and trucks to mow people down.

When politicians use the power of their position to bully companies into censoring random sites, or anyone that may disagree with the political class, it means Freedom is being stripped away from the public. Make no mistake, the danger is real and it is happening to us right now. This is not some idle fantasy or cheap conspiracy theory. The people of this world should enjoy the Internet while it is still somewhat accessible, because if the current trend continues, the Internet will soon be offering less choices than the local prison. 

WHERE HAVE OUR TAX DOLLARS GONE??
