Drudge: “I had a Supreme Court Justice say to me it’s over for me."

Circulating on the web tonight:

During an appearance on the Alex Jones Show, Drudge asserted that copyright laws which prevent websites from even linking to news stories were being advanced.

“I had a Supreme Court Justice tell me it’s over for me,” said Drudge. “They’ve got the votes now to enforce copyright law, you’re out of there. They’re going to make it so you can’t even use headlines.”

“To have a Supreme Court Justice say to me it’s over, they’ve got the votes, which means time is limited,” he added, noting that a day was coming when simply operating an independent website could be outlawed.

“That will end (it) for me – fine – I’ve had a hell of a run,” said Drudge, adding that web users were being pushed into the cyber “ghettos” of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

“This is ghetto, this is corporate, they’re taking your energy and you’re getting nothing in return – nothing!”

It won’t be long before the GOPe has had enough of Rush and sides with the dumbocraps to ram fairness in broadcasting through full bore once and for all.

Over the last 100 years or so, the feds have gradually hyjacked our free Constitutional Republic. It is up to the states and the people to get it back.

ONLY WITHIN its constitutional limits are the feds sovereign. Outside the Constitution, THE STATES are sovereign. The states must individually exert their sovereignty and freedom from unconstitutional federal acts. It’s not too late, but it’s getting close.

I don’t know how states could neutralize federal commandeering of the internet, but each individual state needs to figure it out. Is there ANY state out there that is willing to be financially independent of these tyrants? If not, then we show we are no longer brave enough to be the land of the free.

Whatever happened to RUGGED INDIVIDUALISM? The federal tyrants have all but squelched it with their “entitlements” which is really us giving the feds “entitlement” to take away our freedom. Is there enough bravery in at least one state to mount a counteroffensive, d*amn the federal funds?

KC, every person that posts on any right wing website is 100% guarenteed to be on a list as a potential threat. Thats what leftists do and have done throughout history. Before the net they wrote lists. Today they code bots to compile the data for further research.

Love Drudge, but his relationship with Alex Jones is causing him to become a little dramatic.

Relocating servers in remote jurisdictions is soooo 20th century.

The future is a decentralized internet, where there is no server farm for the statists, socialists, or communists to shut down.

Rather, the content is distributed across user hard drives all across the world. Sort of like Bitcoin. Try and shut THAT down.

There are at least two projects working on this model:

MaidSafe

Free Net Project

These aged 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats and their ideological issue occupying buildings on the Beltway campus are yanking the junk yard dog's chain a little too hard.

Citizens past by the millions defended our free speech against enemies with blood we will do the same.. we will defend our free speech against enemies with blood..

our free speech, their blood.

The fault is ours. Abe will explain from "the other side."

You initiated a policy to tolerate the Marxist-Alinsky radicals and let them rant; not only has it not ceased but was constantly augmented by decades of infiltration and indoctrination. You now have two Americas. In my opinion, it will not cease until a crisis shall have been reached and passed. A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure, permanently, half statist and half free; I do not expect the house to fall; but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other.

No news as we know it, at all. Only sounds coming from mosques and megaphones from vehicles running thru the neighborhoods or flying over dropping leaflets.

So the “fair use doctrine” of copyright law is dead? That will never work.

Agreed. As is the entire concept of the nation state. But we gotta make it to these places first.

The progression of technology favors small committed entities. Atomically precise manufacturing benefits this paradigm shift.

That is the key . We must offshore free speech. I do think it is now very urgent to get involved in this Trump/Cruz/Carson revolution. The GOPE was complicit in all of this. They know that Trump ( the big leader) was massively assisted by the Internet which spun control out of their hands.
Unfortunately I see the country coming to a real revolution. People are very angry and it is getting worse and worse. You all know the reasons ,so I won’t list them but THEY will start a revolution if Trump/Cruz/ Carson even get close . We better get ready. This must be stopped cold in its tracks. The Fair Use doctrine and the Constitution are clear . They will NOT be abrogated by the TPP or anything else.
