Rejecting reality? Facebook blurs Presidential seal during Trump’s speech to veterans
DC Clothesline ^ | 11/17/2018 | Joe Newby

On Thursday, President Trump gave a speech addressing the administration’s efforts to modernize the Department of Veterans Affairs. But for some reason, the Presidential Seal and the White House logo were blurred out of the Facebook Live video, something which didn’t go unnoticed.

“The video of Trump giving gratitude to veterans has the Presidential Seal obscured. Pretty straightforward to do, like what Google does for faces and license plates on Streetview, but requires dedicated compute resources – it doesn’t happen by accident,” said a post at Free Republic. “Probably somebody inside the company thinking they’re doing something cheeky. This kind of stuff should bounce back on them legally and civilly in a big way.”

Here’s the video as it was posted to Facebook:

Note that the White House in the upper right corner is also blurred out!

They are constantly trying to de-legitimatize him as President.

That’s why they say “Trump” and not “President Trump”. Especially the headlines from the liberal MSM.

I think they’re both part of the blogpimp network. They copy each others stuff and half the time, it was copied from some other site to begin with. Rarely any original content and always excerpted here. Excerpted OPs are all they do. Pimp & Run.
