    But Alex Jones is a lunatic who should be banned from social media.

    Speaking of Alex Jones. Read through this Twitter thread and see all the awfulness involved including the alleged pretense for deplatforming Alex Jones. It starts with Jeffrey Epstein but keep reading.

    It all shows the complicity of the media with the greatest evils.

    I don't believe on corona. I don't believe them on Trump. I don't trust them on the rioting. I don't believe them on anything at face value unless further research supports them.

    Jones was a crackpot. Everybody knew it. (Still can't believe I was on his show back in 2005.). If Twitter wants to ban crackpots, that's fine. What bugs me is coming that they'll let leftists spout all kinds of offensive and loony stuff without consequence. Is the difference politics or something else? Hard to say.

    He is a crackpot. Twitter shouldn't ban crackpots.

    Even crackpots can be right at times and Jones probably was about the strange child abuse activities of government and intelligence communities.

    Makes me think social media companies are influenced by intelligence community too.

    I'm not saying they should ban them. I'm saying they can.

    Not that I was active, but deleted my twitter account today. Let it be full of nothing but leftists lies. Without dissent, it dies.

    come on over to Parler, It's liberating to speak freely over there. Now I can say mean things errrrrr I mean the truth, and no one is crying or calling me a racist.

    Just remember. This woman won the Pulitzer Prize for 1619 mythology. And just imagine someone writing an article referring to the "black race" as anything negative.

    I find myself wondering how much I would object if one of Osama Bin Ladin's sons flew an airplane into the NYT building ....

    They hate the US, they hate its history, they hate pretty much everyone in it. Why do they stay here?

    Should CNN still be considered "the press" for 1st Amendment purposes?
    They no longer act like a news organization

    I flipped to MSNBC and CNN during the conference and neither was covering it at that time.

    Trump gave a great speech last night. I think he was waiting for the right time to fight back. 4 months till election day

    We need him more than ever to win. The thought of Biden as president scares the hell out of me. Hell, any democrat scares me right now.

    Of course I just saw a discourse on how racist Trumps speech was. No surprise. As I and others have said it does not matter what he actually says, there will bar wailing and gnashing of teeth about the hate, venom, and racism no matter the content nor intent.

    I watched the speech. It wasn't racist. It was tough on the crackpot Left, but it wasn't racist.

    It was a great speech. It was only offensive to people who want to destroy things because Trump said he wouldn't allow it to happen.

    McEnany's closing remarks yesterday -- calls them out for asking a dozen questions about the Confed Flag but none on violence and murders of blacks over the weekend

    She should put them through the wringer over the coverage of the Rushmore speech. Several articles just flat out lied about it.

    This is so dumb. It's the swastika that made it Nazi, not the eagle. Idiots.
