Bette Midler Tweets About Hanging President Trump and His Family…Twitter Ignores It

It is stunning that despite the so-called experts telling Conservatives that we made it all up... Twitter just keeps giving us more proof that is more than just some conspiracy theory created by the right.

Snopes' Toxic Culture and Liberal Bias

Snopes has been mired in scandal the past few years. Founder David Mikkelson is being sued for embezzlement. And his wife, a former escort who ran as a Libertarian for Congress on an anti-Bush platform, works for the "fact-checking" site.

The Story Behind the Fact Checker

Snopes can best be described this way: A fact-checking site whose founder and executive is knee deep in lies and scandal, and a former managing editor whose liberal bias is palpably evident.

Do you know how this arbiter of truth got started? In 1994, by founder David Mikkelson and his ex-wife Barbara Mikkelson out of the basement of their home in…

Trump slams Chief Justice Roberts, insists 9th Circuit are ‘Obama judges’

President Trump on Wednesday insisted that the nation does, in fact, have “Obama judges,” the latest remarks in the back-and-forth disagreement over the matter with Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. “Sorry Chief Justice John Roberts, but you do indeed have ‘Obama judges,’ and they have a much different point of view than the people who are charged with the safety of our country,” Trump tweeted. “It would be great if the 9th Circuit was indeed an ‘independent judiciary,’ but if it is why are so many opposing view (on Border and Safety) cases filed there, and why are a vast number of those cases overturned,” Trump continued. “Please study the numbers, they are shocking. We need protection and security - these rulings are making our country unsafe! Very dangerous and unwise!” Sorry Chief Justice John Roberts, but you do indeed have “Obama judges,” and they have a much different point of view than the people who are charged with the safety of our country. It would be great if the 9th Circuit was indeed an “independent judiciary,” but if it is why...... — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 21, 2018 .....are so many opposing view (on Border and Safety) cases filed there, and why are a vast number of those cases overturned. Please study the numbers, they are shocking. We need protection and security - these rulings are making our country unsafe! Very dangerous and unwise! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 21, 2018 Earlier Wednesday, Roberts rebuked previous comments made by the president this week. Trump had described a judge who ruled against a new migrant asylum policy as an “Obama judge.” Roberts contended that there was no such thing as “Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges.” “What we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges doing their level best to do equal right to those appearing before them,” he said in a statement.

How many white people lost jobs talking shit about #Obama ? Black people seem to want equality as long as equal responsibility doesn't come with it. #blackracist #victimmentality #JemeleHill #ESPN #liberalbias ESPN wanted to keep Jemele Hill, 41, from co-hosting the nightly SportsCenter at 6pm on Wednesday, according to a report Hours earlier, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders called on the network to fire her for tweeting that President Donald Trump was 'a white supremacist' When the network's plans to sideline Hill became known by staff, her co-host, Michael Smith, who is also black, refused to go on the air ESPN reportedly reached out to two other black sports reporters - Michael Eaves and Elle Duncan - and asked them to fill in for Smith and Hill, but they refused The Disney-owned all-sports network did not want to deal with the backlash that would arise by putting two white co-hosts on the air, so they allowed Hill back ESPN has denied the report, saying that there was never an attempt to replace Hill with any other broadcaster

GOP Senators voted 'yes' on an illegible tax bill at 2 a.m. and the dragging has begun http://ift.tt/2kkYYTj

Who cares if no one could read it? A win is a win, right?

A hastily sewn together Republican tax bill, dubbed by many on Twitter as the #GOPTaxScam, passed through the U.S. Senate after a critical vote at around 2 a.m. on Dec. 2. Now, as Americans wake up to the news on Saturday morning, social media is awash with responses. People are pissed.

The GOP bill amounts to a sweeping overhaul of the U.S. tax code that also inserts "bonus" changes like a repeal of ObamaCare's individual mandate and approval to drill for oil in Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. In a broader sense, it essentially funds significant tax cuts for the country's wealthiest using everyone else's money.

The bill, which already survived a vote in the U.S. House of Representatives, now has one more legislative hurdle to clear — reconciliation talks to bring the House and Senate versions in line, followed by another vote — before it can be signed into law.

Social media isn't taking the news quietly. Between the controversial bill itself, the numerous last-minute amendments added to appease different GOP interests, the hasty and one-sided process that brought it together, and the dead-of-night approval, it's clear that some not-small portion of the American public is feeling betrayed by their elected officials this morning.

Shocker.

Trickle-down doesn’t work. There is no evidence that it works. The GOP keeps pressing for it because they don’t want it to work - they want to enrich corporations off the backs of the working class. #GOPTaxScam

The Senate passed a #GOPTaxPlan virtually no one had read. In the dead of night. w/ amendments scribbled all over it. The USA was robbed by rich campaign donors and con artist Senators. The 2018 elections are coming. vote them out. #offwiththeirheads #GOPTaxScam

— @CandyLeeNC (@CandyLeeNC) December 2, 2017

Nationwide protest against GOP's awful tax bill. Right now. All weekend. Everywhere. Any sidewalk will do. March! #Resist When elected officials only serve CEOs, citizens lose effective representation. Taxation without representation is UNAMERICAN.#GOPTaxBill #GOPTaxScam

— Red5StandingBy (@morrigansarcher) December 2, 2017

It's now official. Reps don't like deficit spending for infrastructure, education, or safety-net programs that help the poor and working folks, but they'll gladly deficit spend for tax cuts and giveaways for corps an 1%ers. #GOPHypocrisy #GOPTaxScam

— LiberalBias (@LiberalBias60) December 2, 2017

Finally, here's a potentially helpful thread for anyone who's feeling defeated this morning. The two biggest votes have come and gone, but there is still more process to chew through — and thus, further opportunity to mitigate the damage — before Donald Trump gets to sign the bill.

Ok, the #taxbill just passed the Senate. You know what to do next. Three scripts below: 1. For GOP Senators 2. Dem Senators 3. House members. Use them. Your voices need to be furious, loud and unrelenting. Do not accept this as defeat. http://pic.twitter.com/GWmfSEyWfj

As I keep saying: your response has to be overwhelming this weekend, leading into the Monday House vote re: conference committee. Your electeds have to know you’re watching.

— Celeste P. (@Celeste_pewter) December 2, 2017

I can’t stress this enough: don’t just tweet about the #taxbill. Don’t waste your time doing things like tweeting at electeds. (Honestly, their social teams won’t care). Focus on calling and emailing. We have a narrow window, focus.

Facebook’s ‘report’ feature abused to censor anti-corruption in Romania

One of the tools Facebook employs to keep law and order in its vast social network is the “Report” feature. Facebook users can report other users or pages that break Facebook’s many rules, and the offending content may be removed following these reports. But the feature, which should be used to prevent all sorts of online abuse, has allegedly been abused itself for the wrong reasons. Apparently, Facebook users and pages in Romania found themselves to be banned during the recent wave of protests against corruption in the country. The protests are a continuation of similar events that took place in the country in early 2018, making worldwide news for the creativity of the crowds that gathered in various cities to combat a series of legislative initiatives that would have made it easier for allegedly corrupt politicians to avoid answering for their crimes. The civic unrest worked at the time, as the Sorin Grindeanu government had to withdraw a controversial emergency ordinance days after issuing it. A few months later, even though it still holds a comfortable majority in parliament, the PSD-ALDE coalition felt compelled to replace the Grindeanu government with one more willing to reintroduce changes to laws that would give the government increased powers over the judiciary system. Romanians took to the streets for days, culminating with a more significant protest on Sunday in the capital and other prominent cities of the country. Some 45,000 people took to the streets to protest the Mihai Tudose government, the leaders of the coalition, and the proposed law changes. The people used social networks like Facebook to organize the protests throughout the year, but on Sunday they noticed several users and pages that called for anti-government demonstrations were blocked. Did Facebook just help the Romanian government censor anti-corruption protests? That’s hardly the case. But reports from local sites like DorinLazar.ro and Mariciu.ro allege that government supporters may have been working for weeks on a targeted “Report” attack to temporarily block those pages and prevent coordination between people in different cities and stop news, including live-streams from these various events, from spreading online and becoming viral. For the past weeks, several accounts of prolific, influential social media personalities have been suspended for various reasons. People have been suspended for up to 30 days for posts that apparently don’t respect the Facebook Community Guideline, although some were penalized for posts made in 2009 – that’s 8 years ago. For some reason, it seems that Romanian Facebook users community has been put under the microscope lens and a sweep of „unruly elements” has been performed. Ironically, reports about this alleged censorship tactic soon emerged online and were widely shared on social media. Rather than trolling their targets with spammy comments from fake Facebook users meant to incite the spirits, the government supporters seem to have found a much better weapon. Reporting users or pages is a free tool available to all Facebook users. Better yet, it’s completely anonymous, therefore safe. The target will not find out who reported a post, comment, or page update, although Facebook will list the reason why an account or page is temporarily banned. This anonymity is what makes it harder for anyone outside Facebook to prove these allegations. Facebook still faces plenty of criticism for the spread of Russian-financed fake news online especially during last year’s US presidential election and is already working hard to prevent similar attacks from happening again. But the social network may soon have to take steps to make sure that its “report” system can’t be easily abused by governments that want to censor their citizens from expressing dissenting views online without actually cutting access to social networking sites in their countries. The latter option, blocking access to social media, is actually a more successful tactic. Read the full article
