On the tyranny of Twitter: How mob censure is changing the intellectual landscape
http://nationalpost.com/news/world/j...5-7f4e934c2afbWithout intending to, Twitter’s culture warriors have created a sort of crowdsourced ideological autocracy ― and paradoxically, it’s left-wingers who are often targets
In a recent column titled Twitter is destroying America, American columnist Damon Linker complained that politics now “take[s] place in a context that can best be compared to a high school cafeteria — the largest, most raucous high school cafeteria in human history. At the centre of the room sit the popular crowd — the reporters, editors, and pundits who work for the most prestigious mainstream media outlets in the country. Everyone else in the room wants their approval and attention, including the right-wing trolls seated at the burnout table in the corner, and the geeks who toil away on public policy at universities and think tanks, and more ordinary scribblers like me, who write for slightly lesser-known magazines and websites.”

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump 22. Juni
...Why did Democratic National Committee turn down the DHS offer to protect against hacks (long prior to election). It's all a big Dem HOAX!
The CIA captured Putin’s specific instructions – defeat Clinton and help elect Trump
http://wapo.st/2tB7BJk
SO Trump truly still believes that the Russian hacking and influence operations was just a HOAX......
Steve Bannon had a 'years-long plan' to take down HRC. Funny how his goals & methods align with WikiLeaks/Russia.

New Oversight chair Gowdy says committee won't pursue Russia probe
http://hill.cm/
Trey Gowdy says Oversight Cmte won't investigate:
-Russian interference
-Coordination w/Trump camp
-Obstruction
Trump's pet super PAC is now attacking Republicans, regardless of the political realities they face in their states. So much for winning.
AMERICA FIRST POLICIES, the pro-Trump/Pence outside group that Pence has been raising for, is preparing a seven-figure ad buy against HELLER
Trump’s budget would severely hamper operations at leaderless FBI:
http://www.rawstory.com/2017/06/trum...ss-fbi-report/
The acting director of the FBI claims that President Donald Trump’s proposed budget for the law enforcement agency will severely impact their ability to do their jobs and will result in cutbacks in operations at all levels.
According to Politico, Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe told the House Appropriations subcommittee this week that the budget proposal from the Trump White House will have a devastating impact on the agency that is still reeling# — and leaderless — since Trump fired former Director James Comey.
“It will certainly impact us in many ways. It is a broad and deep reduction that will touch every program. it will touch headquarters. It will touch our field offices,” McCabe explained to House members on Wednesday. “It is a reduction that is not possible to take entirely against vacancies. It’s a reduction that will touch every description of employee within the FBI. We will lose agent positions. We will lose analyst positions and, of course, professional staff.”report[/B]
First the CIA Director refuses to answer the direct question in a Senate hearing..."did Trump ask you to get involved in deflecting the Flynn investigation"
He refused to answer....and he has not answered in a closed session.....
NOW he is attempting to give the impression that Trump is greatly interested on ongoing security issues....

This is an indication that yes even Putin lies......
On Russia's state TV, Putin admits that his government service was always tied to SVR RF Directorate S: Illegal Intelligence
Putin was in the normal KGB liaison office in Dresden as the liaison officer to the GDR Stasi HQs in Dresden....
Russia's state TV: RF Illegal Intel claims that after the USSR fell, NATO planned to reduce Russia to the size of The Grand Duchy of Moscow.

NEW DIPLOMATIC RECORD: Trump Mideast peace initiative pronounced dead after ONE meeting.
So much WINNING
Jerusalem Post Arab-Israeli Conflict
Reports that Trump considering pulling out of peace talks 'nonsense,' US official says
ByYASSER OKBI/ MAARIV HASHAVUA, JPOST.COM STAFF June 24, 2017 20:08
http://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Co...meeting-497795A Palestinian official claims Abbas is furious at American demands, accuses the US of taking sides.
So, it turns out the way to get concessions from the Palestinians was NOT for zhe USG to take the Likud line more strongly.
Like, who knew?
Abbas was supposedly furious with the president's son-in-law after Kushner relayed Israeli demands to the 81-year-old Palestinian leader which included the immediate halt of payments to terrorists and their families.
Abbas angrily accused Kushner and Trump's lead international negotiator, Jason Greenblatt, of taking Israel's side and refused to commit to the request.
The report claims that the Trump administration was equally upset with Abbas after he failed to denounce the latest stabbing attack in Jerusalem, leaving 23-year-old St.-Sgt. Maj. Hadas Malka brutally stabbed to death in a terror attack last week. Ties were further strained after Abbas reportedly refused to meet# American ambassador to Israel David Friedman.
The Palestinian official also told the paper that the Americans demanded Palestinian officials curb inflammatory statements regarding Israel.
"(Kushner) will submit his report to the president and, after it is submitted, Trump will decide if there's a chance for negotiations or it might be preferable to pull out peace talks," the official said.
Abbas claimed that Israel is using the issue of payments to terrorists and their families as a pretext to avoid entering peace-talks, saying that the payments are a part of the Palestinian government's "social responsibility."

Russian official linked to South Florida biker club spent millions on Trump condos
http://www.miamiherald.com/news/loca...#storylink=cpy
MOSCOW
Out-of-town money pouring into South Florida real estate is as old as Henry Flagler.
But the tale of Igor Zorin offers a 21st-century twist with all the weirdness modern Miami has to offer: Russian cash, a motorcycle club named after Russia’s powerful special forces and a condo tower branded by Donald Trump.
Zorin is a Russian government official who has spent nearly $8 million on waterfront South Florida homes, hardly financially prudent given his bureaucrat’s salary of $75,000 per year. He runs a state-owned broadcasting company that, among other duties, operates sound systems for the annual military parade that sends columns of soldiers and tanks rumbling through Moscow’s Red Square.
Did not realize that stealing a shoe design was plagiarism...normally thought that to be stealing intellectual property and criminal fraud...in Europe there are laws against copying a product and then selling it under your name...jail time and heavy fines....
Ivanka Trump Ordered to Testify Over Alleged Shoe Plagiarism
http://thebea.st/2t7JaWq?source=twitter&via=desktop#…
Was this shoe line one of the eight trademarks China awarded her right before the Chinese visit to Trump?????
OR was it the shoe company where recently two activists got arrested for investigating the accusations of "super cheap labor"...
Is is not interesting that Trump personally as well as his supporters and his WH Staff have largely done everything to avoid accepting that the Russians actually attempted to hijack and or influence the Presidential election in Trump's favor...
Trump still has not on national TV and or in major interviews openly stated I fully accept the conclusions of the 17 USG ICs...that the Russians did in fact attempt to hijack the election...and here are my responses to that attack on the US....
He tap dances around that single statement and comes up often with what is that now famous 400lb kid with a laptop on a bed or it was those crazy Chinese...
BTW...the same exact words parroted by Putin until Putin recently stated..."well maybe some Russians who were mad about the treatment of Russia might have done it" much like his statement...yes "little green men took over Crimea and are in eastern Ukraine"....TWO years after the fact that the world already knew about....
WHY is that????
So when a single Washington Post article comes out and clearly states on record what exactly was going on during those critical moments of the Russian hacking and the CIA clearly states "we know with 500% surety that Putin ordered the attack"....we have it on record and in evidence and on tape"
Trump then lashes out against the Dems and Obama...YET surprisingly he does not condemn the Putin actions...WHY NOT??
YET in fact when he lashes out he is in fact fully accepting the USG IC version of events YET he does not support their conclusions...WHY is that???
Donald J. Trump
#@realDonaldTrump 24. Juni
Just out: The Obama Administration knew far in advance of November 8th about election meddling by Russia. Did nothing about it. WHY?
Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Obama Administration official said they "choked" when it came to acting on Russian meddling of election. They didn't want to hurt Hillary?
Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Since the Obama Administration was told way before the 2016 Election that the Russians were meddling, why no action? Focus on them, not T!
WHEN Trump tweets "Did nothing about it". WHY?
Trump totally failed to notice in the same article he is in fact quoting as being a valid reflection of what happened the following.
Trump completely glosses over the simple fact that the GOP States and McConnell for the Senat absolutely were derelict in their duties and sworn oath to "defend the country from attacks from enemies near and far"
They simply refused to assist DHS and to defend their critical voting mechanisms from Russian attacks....
So was in fact through this dereliction of duty on the part of the GOP actually part of the Russian "collusion plan".....
Seems to be when one rereads thoroughly the Washington Post article and combines it with all known public information currently available.....
REMEMBER Trump stated publicly he was going to have in 90 days a plan to defend the US from Russian hacking and influence operations....NONE
REMEBER has Trump clearly stated "the Russians did in fact attack the US" and I stand behind all USG ICs.......NO
REMEMBER Trump stated that he was going to present his IS eradication plan...NONE
REMEMBER Trump stated multiple times..."he was never going to cut SS, Medicaid and Medicare....and what has he done.....CUT....and CUT DEEPLY
REMEMBER Trump stated ALL Americans would see their healthcare plans improve....with lower deductions and far lower costs....AIN'T GOING TO HAPPEN with his TrumpCare
So can anything Trump states be considered "truth".....NO

Trump lashes out at Obama over Post report on Russian election meddling
Trump is great at the McCarthy thing....spreading hate and distrust....The president’s tweets criticizing the Obama White House for not doing more to prevent Russian election interference contradict his past statements and suggest without proof that administration officials were trying to help Hillary Clinton.
REMEMBER McCathy was also a Republican.....
WHY is that???

You get a call from Homeland Security that a foreign government is trying to subvert elections & you say, "I don't believe you, Democrat."
Another Republican "disbeliever" about Russian hacking attempts....
BUT WAIT...even Trump now admits the Russians actually hacked and interfered with the US election....
Donald J. Trump
#@realDonaldTrump
Since the Obama Administration was told way before the 2016 Election that the Russians were meddling, why no action? Focus on them, not T!
BUT the Georgian AG responsible for a safe and secure election "rejected the Homeland Security" offer BELIEVING it was a HOAX as Trump recently tweeted....JUST as Trump believed it was a HOAX as he himself recently tweeted....
