I don’t know why libs are so annoyed by Drudge. He is an aggregator - including links to many liberal sites - who does very little of his own research.

The plan:

They know they can’t legally prevent us from meeting and speaking out, but thoroughly controlling ELECTRONIC speech is muuuuch better.

The YouTube censorship over the past 3 months..?

They’re going to crank that up 10x. The comments at the end of news stories and vids? Yeah, “no more hate” —that’s going to be axed, big-time.

It’s going to be a full-court electronic press.

“We can’t win the debate so we gotta go DIVERSITY PROTECTION 24/7, and that means CONTROLLING the debate so that things stay ‘nice’ .”

The headline ( not your fault) is a iLife. Tan credo asked a question he urged nothing. He wants people to pay attention

If the Democrats don't like people knowing what they're up to, why don't they stop the actions that embarrass themselves so much? Everybody wins!

Bribery, profits and threats of harm are likely par for the course with Congress, courts, et cetera. There are so many of them, and they didn’t become abject turncoats without reason.

Direct link to the quoted article: The Hill: Could Russia (or Mexico) bribe the feds to regulate Drudge?

The article is very much a warning, not urging.

Everyone knows that this government is for sale to the highest bidder. The Clintons proved that.
