The RESTRICT Act could be used to shut down Truth Social and Rumble, or any app that challenges the ‘reported result’ of an election - By Robert Romano
S.686, the Restricting the Emergence of Security Threats that Risk Information and Communications Technology Act (RESTRICT Act), contains language that could be used to shut down any website or app with more than 1 million users that challenges the “reported result of a Federal election” — threatening websites and apps that allow free speech on their platforms including Truth Social and Rumble, not just TikTok, the supposed reason for the legislation...

Bragg Was Looking to Charge Trump with a Felony, Could Land Himself in Prison for Years Instead
Bragg Was Looking to Charge Trump with a Felony, Could Land Himself in Prison for Years Instead:
“If [Bragg] uses Cohen as a witness, he could actually lose his bar license,” Dershowitz told Fox Business Network’s “Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo” in a March 26 interview, according to Mediaite.
That was four days before the news of the indictment exploded on the scene on Thursday.
“It’s unethical to put a witness on the stand who you know is lying, and he has to know that Cohen will be lying,” Dershowitz said. “Or he tries the case without Cohen, which would be very difficult, or he does the right thing: He drops the case.”

You're not allowed to make legitimate points or ask legit questions anymore...
Facebook Debbie Schlussel 
"You're not allowed to make legitimate points or ask legit questions anymore lest you be demanded to give an apology or be canceled (or both in many cases).
Guy Pearce, who is a great actor and played trans in a movie, made the mistake of making the same point I've made several times: if only trans--and not straight/normal--actors can play trans roles then why are trans allowed to play straight roles?
- But he made the mistake of assuming you're allowed to be reasonable and ask reasonable questions.
- Here's a tip: only straight whites can be racist and trans can play whatever role they want, etc.
- There is no two-way street or sanity in this world. So now, of course and predictably, Pearce is doing mega back flips on the apology treadmill.
So sad.

PROLOGUE: THE INFORMATION WAR
...In his last days in office, President Barack Obama made the decision to set the country on a new course. On Dec. 23, 2016, he signed into law the Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act, which used the language of defending the homeland to launch an open-ended, offensive information war.
...Disinformation, a half-forgotten relic of the Cold War, was newly spoken of as an urgent, existential threat.

...Disinformation, a half-forgotten relic of the Cold War, was newly spoken of as an urgent, existential threat.
Russia was said to have exploited the vulnerabilities of the open internet to bypass U.S. strategic defenses by infiltrating private citizens’ phones and laptops...
The point was echoed by Michael Lumpkin, who headed the State Department’s Global Engagement Center (GEC), the agency Obama designated to run the U.S. counter-disinformation campaign.
Lumpkin singled out the Privacy Act of 1974, a post-Watergate law protecting U.S. citizens from having their data collected by the government, as antiquated.
“The 1974 act was created to make sure that we aren’t collecting data on U.S. citizens. Well, … by definition the World Wide Web is worldwide. There is no passport that goes with it. If it’s a Tunisian citizen in the United States or a U.S. citizen in Tunisia, I don’t have the ability to discern that … If I had more ability to work with that [personally identifiable information] and had access … I could do more targeting, more definitively, to make sure I could hit the right message to the right audience at the right time.”The message from the U.S. defense establishment was clear: To win the information war—an existential conflict taking place in the borderless dimensions of cyberspace—the government needed to dispense with outdated legal distinctions between foreign terrorists and American citizens...

Explains Why Fauci Had Such a Problem With Early Treatment
"Tony Fauci's problem is this: there's a little-known Federal law that says, 'You cannot give an emergency use authorization to a vaccine if there is any medication approved for any purpose that is shown effective against the target disease.'
So if Tony Fauci or anybody had admitted that hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin are effective against COVID, it would have been illegal for them to give the emergency use authorization to the vaccines, and they could have never gotten them approved.
And a 200 billion dollar enterprise would have collapsed."

The FBI had more people in the Proud Boys than the Proud Boys 
"...Their “witness” turned out to be a confidential informant for the FBI who had been spying on the defense team.
That brought the trial to a screeching halt “until these issues have been considered and resolved.”...
Critics of the harsh prosecutions in the January 6th debacle continue to be vindicated. Those who have said the whole thing was a setup keep getting proved right by our own Department of Justice. According to lawyers for Zachary Rehl, a Proud Boys chapter leader charged with seditious conspiracy, the government failed to disclose that one of the witnesses scheduled to testify was actually a confidential informant for the FBI. Surprisingly, the Associated Press reported it...

Citi-cide!-----PHILLY’S “PAY-TO-RIOT” GIVES $9 MILLION TO BLM PROTESTERS
PHILLY’S “PAY-TO-RIOT” GIVES $9 MILLION TO BLM PROTESTERS - Daniel Greenfield "Between May and June 2020, heroic PPD police officers, outnumbered, outmatched and with no support from local officials, battled the violent hateful BLM mobs rampaging through West Philly.
- The racist mobs looted small businesses in the mostly black area, destroying lives and livelihoods, while assaulting police officers and anyone who tried to get in their way.
- Buildings were set on fire and mobs shrieking “Black Lives Matter” and other racist slogans hurled rocks, bricks and Molotov cocktails at officers who were risking their lives to stop the violence.
...Now the payoff is coming, not for the small business owners, but for the rioting mobs.
New York City offered a record $6 million payout to “F___ the Police” protesters because while restraining them the NYPD officers “frequently failed to wear masks”, now Philly is offering another record $9.25 million payoff to the racist mobs in West Philly.
