Adam Schiff, Sheldon Whitehouse to Facebook: Censor Republicans or else

Adam Schiff calling out misinformation is like an arsonist complaining about fire departments. Schiff is one of the biggest practitioners of spreading misinformation in history. This weekend, Schiff signed onto a letter with Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse to Facebook saying "After each election cycle, social media platforms like Meta often alter or roll back certain misinformation policies, because they are temporary and specific to the election season. Doing so in this current environment, in which election disinformation continuously erodes trust in the integrity of the voting process, would be a tragic mistake. Meta must commit to strong election misinformation policies year-round, as we are still witnessing falsehoods about voting and the prior elections spreading on your platform."

That's rich. Why would the American people trust Schiff, the man that told us for years that he'd seen classified information that was more than circumstantial evidence that Trump had colluded with Russians to win the 2016 election. Let's recall what Adam Schiff told NBC's Chuck Todd:

Schiff said that he'd seen evidence that "was more than circumstantial." What documents, emails or texts had Schiff seen that are direct evidence? Robert Mueller didn't put anything in his infamous report. Then-AG William Barr quoted from the Report. Here's what it quoted Mueller as saying:
"(T)he investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities."
Mueller concluded that Russia interfered with the election. What it didn't say is that Trump did anything that Democrats accused Trump of doing.

Schiff and Whitehouse wrote this in their letter to Facebook:

Meta has previously taken concrete actions to fight falsehoods and misinformation regarding elections, such as Facebook’s adding labels on election-related posts promoting reliable information in 2020 and 2021, which was an important step in countering the proliferation of election misinformation on the platform. We also supported Meta’s decision to suspend the Facebook account of former president Trump for, "maintaining an unfounded narrative of electoral fraud and persistent calls to action" therefore creating "an environment where a serious risk of violence was possible" according to the Facebook Oversight Board. That risk persists, and certainly has not diminished since the former president’s removal.
While Democrats haven't stopped accusing Trump of continually talking about 2020, Democrats haven't said a peep about Hillary Clinton calling Trump an illegitimate president and Stacey Abrams whining about how Brian Kemp suppressed the vote, causing her to lose her in Georgia. Apparently, misinformation only travels in one direction, according to Democrats.

It's time for Schiff to shut up. He's a liar through-and-through.

Is Joe Biden our Grifter-in-Chief?

Image
Apparently, Joe Biden doesn't care about the law or Supreme Court rulings. When asked about the ruling on his student loan bailout, Biden said that the Supreme Court misinterpreted the Constitution. He knows they didn't. That's just what he said to preserve the opportunity to introduce his next unconstitutional plan that will get rejected by the Supreme Court. This isn't about whether it's constitutional. It's about whether he can con enough young people into voting for him in 2024. Biden must've anticipated this ruling. Within an hour of the ruling, the Administration was out with this detailed fact sheet to replace the plan that he knew would fail. It opens with the same partisan attack as Democrats have mouthed. The fact sheet opens by saying "No President has fought harder for student debt relief than President Biden, and he’s not done yet. President Biden and Vice President Harris will not let Republican elected officials succeed in denying hard

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

Maria Bartiromo's interrogation of Gov. Ron DeSantis

Image
Yesterday, Maria Bartiromo interrogated Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday Morning Futures. The first half of the interview, Bartiromo asked policy questions. Gov. DeSantis showed his understanding of the issues and presented his solutions on everything from China, inflation and growing the economy. The first reply he had was to cut spending. His next reply was to open energy production. Third, he talked about the importance of increasing productivity, which he correctly said is the best way to eliminate inflation. A little over half the way through the interview, though, it turned into an attack. Bartiromo asked "I'm wondering what's going on with your campaign. There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year but here's this weekend's headline from the Politico Playbook: Failure to launch. Gov. Ron DeSantis's campaign to topple Donald Trump has stalled. We are way behind says a top DeSantis PAC official. What happened? Despite that bad
