    Cher wants the government shutdown to end — even if it means giving President Trump money for his border wall. The legendary singer and outspoken liberal activist tweeted out her concerns for the American people if the shutdown remains in effect. Cher exclaimed on Wednesday, “FOR trump THIS IS POLITICAL..BUT REAL PPL ARE REALLY SUFFERING.” She called Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, a “hero,” but added “LET HIM HAVE HIS FKNG MONEY.” Cher’s tweet made headlines, with Fox News declaring, “Cher demands Pelosi end partial government shutdown, fund border wall: ‘DON’T DIE ON THIS HILL.’” Well, the Grammy winner...

    Well, this sounds interesting and probably sinister and open to manipulation: The federal government is spending nearly $1 million to create an online database that will track “misinformation” and hate speech on Twitter. The National Science Foundation is financing the creation of a web service that will monitor “suspicious memes” and what it considers “false and misleading ideas,” with a major focus on political activity online. The “Truthy” database, created by researchers at Indiana University, is designed to “detect political smears, astroturfing, misinformation, and other social pollution.” The university has received $919,917 so far for the project. “The project stands...

    On the evening of Saturday, 5 January, a desperate situation began to unravel on a newly created Twitter account. Fleeing her Saudi family in Kuwait, Rahaf Mohammed al-Qunun, 18, sent out a series of tweets pleading for help from an airport hotel room in Bangkok. At the time she had 24 followers. "I'm the girl who ran away to Thailand. I'm now in real danger because the Saudi embassy is trying to force me to return," her first-ever tweet in Arabic read. --copyrighted tweet image at link Then she said something that would be hard to ignore: "I'm afraid.

    Liberal music superstar Cher is holding congressional Democrats’ feet to the fire amid the ongoing partial government shutdown. It came after President Trump delivered a prime-time address from the Oval Office on Tuesday night making the case for funding the border wall, which was followed by a response from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., who argued that the president must reopen the government in order to continue conversations about border security. Cher then took to Twitter to blast the president for promising that Mexico would pay for the wall and demanded him to...

    WND ^ | 1/7/18
    The Wall Street Journal reports Muslims lobbied Twitter to silence the voice of journalist Laura Loomer. As WND reported, Loomer recently chained herself to Twitter headquarters after the social-media giant banned her. The Journal explained Twitter invited a number of outside groups to help it decide who should be banned after criticism for not policing its content. “That solution is creating a new set of problems—public fights, complaints and legal battles,” the paper said. Loomer, described as a conservative Jewish activist, said she didn’t know until recently that outside groups and individuals had privately lobbied Twitter executives to remove her...

    Colorado cake artist Jack Phillips, owner of the Masterpiece Cakeshop (Screenshot) (CNSNews.com) – A federal district court ruled Friday that Colorado cannot block an attempt by Colorado cake artist Jack Phillips to sue the state over its “hostility” towards him and his Christian beliefs. Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) represents Phillips, owner of the Masterpiece Cakeshop, in the lawsuit. As CNSNews.com previously reported , the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, in June 2018, saying the commission “violated the Free Exercise Clause” by requiring Phillips to go against his religious beliefs about gay marriage...

    Juhad Watch ^ | 1/8/19
    This doesn’t come as any surprise given the eagerness of both Facebook and Twitter to be Sharia-compliant. Facebook’s Vice President Joel Kaplan traveled to Pakistan in July 2017 to assure the Pakistani government that it would remove “anti-Islam” material. And Facebook has done so assiduously, banning numerous foes of jihad terror and twice now blocking the Jihad Watch Facebook page on spurious technical grounds. And Twitter has recently been notifying people that they’re in violation of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws, which violation carries a death sentence. But this shows how sick and degenerate the social media giants really are. CAIR has...

    U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise abruptly ended an online debate over Twitter with freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez after the New York Democratic Socialist’s “radical supporters” began referencing the assassination attempt on his life. “Snipe his a–,” one Twitter user wrote, in support of Ocasio-Cortez, Fox News reported, adding that the user went on to deny that the post was a call for violence, writing, “not seeing any violence there sorry.” The user eventually told Fox News the reference was to verbal “sniping.”

    Kanye West’s bromance with President Trump appears alive and well as 2019 dawns — with the wacky rapper giving his pal a shout-out on Twitter, praising his MAGA hat and dropping hints that he could run for the White House in 2024. “Trump all day” West tweeted at about 3:30 p.m. on New Year’s Day, a comment that got a decidedly mixed reaction from his followers. “I have to assume this is a reference to a kid named Trump on the youth football team I coach. It’s his first name. He’s okay, but cries when I scream profanities at him,...

    President Trump offered a combative New Year's message on Tuesday, mocking critics of his whiplash governing style. “HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE, INCLUDING THE HATERS AND THE FAKE NEWS MEDIA! 2019 WILL BE A FANTASTIC YEAR FOR THOSE NOT SUFFERING FROM TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME. JUST CALM DOWN AND ENJOY THE RIDE, GREAT THINGS ARE HAPPENING FOR OUR COUNTRY!” Trump wrote in a Twitter post kicking off the latter half of his first term in office. The president later issued a more traditional message, tweeting simply “Happy New Year!” In a subsequent post, he continued to blame Democrats for a partial...

    Bum Camps are expanding and some people don't like it. Some of those DontLikers own personal drones and are using their piloting skills to document the worsening situation. It seems that the laissez-faire approach by the authorities has put some of the locals in a mood for a little pay-back. Funny twitter vid clip series at link shows what unfolds when annoyed tweakers channel their special "Meth Magic" to locate and then chase the drone controllers..! How strange that the most civilized culture now has a subfaction much like the least-civilized culture (pic below related)

    President Donald Trump said Sunday that America needs a “slightly larger version” of the wall around the Washington, D.C. mansion owned by former President Barack Obama. In a Sunday afternoon tweet, Trump said that he agreed that a wall was a good idea. “President and Mrs. Obama built/has a ten foot Wall around their D.C. mansion/compound,” he tweeted. “I agree, totally necessary for their safety and security.” The president then added that all he wanted was a “slightly” bigger one to secure the safety of all Americans. “The U.S. needs the same thing, slightly larger version!” he said.
