China isn't spying on Americans. Israel is and it is behind this ridiculous push to ban TikTok.
President Joe Biden, this is the last warning.....
You sign this bill to ban TikTok, kiss your reelection chances goodbye. I will no longer back his relection bid for president and I will likely sit it out. I won't even bother voting. Matter of fact, I will still cover you as fairly as I can but you will be in the same category as Donald J. Trump.
You and the Democrats are hypocrites. You value democracy only when it suits the needs of scaring up votes. At least with the Republicans, they are literally snakes and they proven to be venomous when it comes to hypocrisy.
You claim y'all value the freedoms. Nope.
You want to strip people from freedoms.
But alas, Democrats are just Republicans too.
TikTok and its creators are going to war with Biden, Congress and Israel.
The U.S. is demanding that ByteDance divest from TikTok within a period of six months or be permanently banned in the United States. They want TikTok to sever ties with the Chinese based company.
China has no control over TikTok American operations. Members of Congress know that.
But the Zionist lobby, which is AIPAC and the ADL have pushed for it for years.
Jonathan Greenblatt publicly endorsed this and he is claiming that TikTok is the leading promoter of antisemitism. TikTok has been influential in turning Americans against Israel.
The Zionist lobby want to stop TikTok and its influencers from promoting Pro Palestinian support. It is a war that will make Biden a one term president.
I find it hilarious that Elon Musk, a controversial South African/Canadian/American billionaire and internet troll can operate Twitter/X without any oversight from Congress.
A platform like X offers misinformation, adult content, graphic violence, state propaganda, racism and illegal activity. Biden and Congress have no problems with that.
Meta, X and Alphabet operate platforms which censor criticism of Israel.
The ADL and AIPAC are not registered as agents of a foreign government.
While antisemitism is real, the ADL and AIPAC have cried wolf too many damn times.
The U.S. is no longer being seen as a leader. Democracy under Trump and Biden has downsided to a point where now you have idiots questioning whether losing an election fairly amounts to malicious acts of violence.
To all the Black firearm owners who support the Second Amendment or former president Donald J. Trump in the 2024 presidential race, I just want to say...
"YOU'RE GONNA BE SHOT BY POLICE TOO!"
The National Rifle Association never reacts to lawful exercise of firearm use when a Black, Hispanic, Arab, Muslim, Indigenous, LGBTQ or underage teen of color is carrying them.
It is automatic dehumanizing from the far right, police unions and the junk food media.
When white men, women or even some Asians are carrying firearms, the NRA is often parading them around like they're heroes and protectors of freedom.
In about 45 states, I believe it is lawful for you to walk down a street with a firearm.
If you're a Black man walking down the street with a firearm, the random 911 call or the visual spotting from a police officer merits an automatic drawl of a service weapon.
Police officers within seconds are either shooting or premeditated an excuse to use force.
The unions back up their claims of "fearing for their lives" despite the perpetrator not even firing a round. Given that the junk food media loves to paint the aggressor as the victim, the police officer is given the benefit of doubt. The person police shot usually do not get any ounce of doubt. A mugshot of a suspect or a picture of a person posing with money or firearms automatically draws far right conclusions to justification of force.
Even fleeing from police with a firearm and not even pointing at them results in police shootings.
If a person does survive, the state still charges the person for a crime despite the state allowing open carry and lawful possession.
So I just want to say that the Second Amendment is White, period.
Ohio.
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine signed Senate Bill 215 (effective June 13, 2022). Under its provisions, any person 21+, residents and nonresidents, who meets the definition of a "qualifying adult" under O.R.C. 2923.111, may carry a concealed handgun without a license. Residents and non-residents under 21 may still open carry, but require a valid concealed handgun license issued by another U.S. jurisdiction to conceal carry.
The open-carry of firearms by those who legally possess the firearm is a legal activity in Ohio with or without a license. It is legal for a person to open-carry a loaded handgun in a vehicle without a permit, as long as they are eligible to receive a concealed handgun license.
One may not open-carry a firearm upon or into: a school, the grounds of a school, school building, school premises, school activity, or school bus; a courthouse or other building in which a courtroom is located; or an establishment licensed to serve alcohol, unless the person is eligible for a concealed handgun license and is not consuming alcohol.
It is lawful for one to open-carry firearms in certain locations that are statutorily prohibited for those who are conceal-carrying, such as police stations and sheriff's offices or other such law enforcement buildings; churches, mosques, synagogues, and other places of worhsip; etc.
Two incidents. Nexstar Media stations NBC 4 Columbus and Fox 8 Cleveland detail police shooting incidents. A Columbus man was shot and killed by a suburban police. An Akron teen survived a police shooting but is charged after he was shot by police while holding a prop gun.
Whitehall Police confront passenger Santiago Elias Alfaro Munoz.
Whitehall, a city in the metro Columbus area. The city of Columbus has 1 million residents. A city illegally gerrymandered to serve four AIPAC lawmakers. Three Republicans Jim Jordan, Troy Balderson, Mike Carey and one Democrat Joyce Beatty.
One man is dead after being shot by a Whitehall police officer early Friday.
According to Whitehall Chief of Police Mike Crispin, two officers were conducting a routine traffic stop about 2 a.m. when they heard gunfire nearby. Whitehall’s Shotspotter alerted the officers to the Roses Discount Store in the 4600 block of East Main Street.
When they arrived, police saw two cars, but one, a dark SUV, sped away immediately. Two officers approached the parked vehicle, a silver Honda Pilot, and found two men. It’s here that bodycams started recording video that the department released Friday afternoon.
One officer came to the car first on the driver’s side, followed by the other on the passenger’s side. The video showed the driver’s side officer asking if the pair spoke English, and they said no. The passenger’s side officer took a drink can from the man in that seat. The officers then asked in Spanish if the occupants had any handguns or drugs, and they replied no.
The pair of officers briefly pointed their flashlights into the backseats and then back toward the passengers. The video recorded the officer on the driver’s side alerting the other one that he spotted a “33,” a police code for a person with a gun.
Within 30 seconds of engagement, cop shoots man.
The officers told both passengers to put their hands up in both Spanish and in English. After the driver’s side officer opened the car door, the driver complied and got out. The officer’s bodycam recorded him placing the man in handcuffs.
When the passenger’s side officer pulled that door open, the bodycam recorded the passenger turn around toward the backseats. Both officers backed away quickly, drew their handguns and fired multiple shots. The driver’s side officer camera caught the car’s window glass shattering from the bullets.
“Officers told him to lift his hands up several times in both Spanish and English and still did not comply,” Crispin said. “It appears on the video he quickly spun around and reached for something, spun back toward the officer. The officer then responded to the threat. Shots were fired into the vehicle.”
A Whitehall police report said the passenger had reached for a gun and then turned toward the officer, and was struck by the officers’ gunfire. The man in the passenger seat, identified as 36-year-old Santiago Elias Alfaro Munoz, was taken to Mount Carmel East hospital but was pronounced dead a short time later. Neither officer was injured.
Mugshot of Santiago Alfaro Munoz. The junk food media loves to use mugshots to justify police shootings. Munoz did not harm the cop.
Several handguns were found inside the vehicle and police are still searching for the other SUV that fled the scene. However, police do not believe there is a threat to the public.
Police arrested the driver, 35-year-old William Morales Villatoro, on charges of improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle. He was turned over to the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office.
“Plenty of officers are out. We don’t see any concerns for our citizens at this point,” Crispin said. “Everyone has been secured other than we don’t know anything about the vehicle that took off.”
Crispen said there are now two investigations. Whitehall PD will conduct a criminal investigation into that original report of shots fired. The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation has taken on the case of the officers shooting and killing the man who did not comply with their comments.
Crsipen said the two officers involved are on administrative leave.
“That’s just protocol. It’s not because there’s a reason and it’s not because they did anything wrong. It’s just because that’s what we do to separate them. It’s tragic. It’s tragic both directions. And so it’s a very even they and as much as the families have some tragedy, they’ve got some tragedy because this is not what they came in to do today,” Crispen said.
The officers are not being named. Crispen said they each have one to three years experience with Whitehall police. This is the first officer involved shooting in Whitehall since 2018, according to Crispen.
An Akron officer with a disciplinary record of misconduct shoots a teen moments after he exits his vehicle. Teen was walking with a prop gun.
Akron, a city represented by AIPAC supporting Democratic lawmaker named Emilia Sykes.
The 15-year-old boy who was shot by an Akron police officer who thought a toy gun he was carrying was real, is now being charged.
According to the Akron Police Department, 15-year-old Tavion Koonce-Williams is being charged with having a facsimile firearm, a first-degree misdemeanor that will be handled through juvenile court.
The City of Akron and the Akron Police Department released police body camera video of an officer shooting Koonce-Williams in Akron on April 1. I guess the cop saw Koonce-Williams hair and automatically assumed criminal.
The officer responded to a report of a man with a gun who was pointing it at houses.
According to the body camera video, Officer Ryan Westlake asked, “Where are you coming from? Can I see your hands?”
Video shows the teen on the ground being handcuffed and bleeding from the shooting. Police later learned that the gun was indeed a fake.
“The officer’s file includes a number of disciplinary actions and use of force incidents, one of which has been deemed unreasonable,” the city said in a press release.
The officer is a nine-year veteran of the department and is now on paid administrative leave.
Koonce-Williams appeared in public for the first time as his family spoke out to the media, demanding answers and changes on April 12.
This is a perfect example of why Congress failed America!
The Republicans seriously believe the Second Amendment is more important than the lives of the Americans who value safety, tranquility and shelter.
Gun violence is the number one threat in the United States.
I dismiss this ridiculous notion that criminals are the problem, not the guns. Firearms are often obtained through legal purchases.
Again, having more security, teachers being armed and offering safe rooms are not solving the problem. The problem is lawmakers not willing to stop gun violence.
According to the far right: White shooters are mentally ill. Black shooters are unrepentant criminals. Gay shooters are active groomers. Muslim shooters are terrorists. Hispanic and Asian shooters are illegal immigrants. Almost all mass shooters are registered Democrats because they have liked one thing common to the left. Of course, they often share disinformation by using the "Sam Hyde" meme as a way to denounce most mass shooters being white. They say a white person should "protect" from protesters and use of firearms are justified. They say if a shooter is active military or a veteran who supports conservative causes, they are considered a "heroes" and use of firearms are justified. If the shooters are teens, the far right automatically assume the gunmen are Black.
The Republicans usually amplify white victims. Anytime a person of color kills a white victim, it is often wall-to-wall coverage on Fox, Twitter and they force it into national news. They make the case to blame Black Lives Matter, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, Democrats, Rev. Al Sharpton and rap music for Black on whatever violence. Republican lawmakers who do not live in urban neighborhoods often troll social media to talk about gun violence or crime in Chicago, Baltimore, Milwaukee and New York City while not doing a damn thing to stop it. If a white person shoots a Black person, the shooter is given the benefit of doubt. White shooters are given glowing profiles about their perfect lives and how friends noticed something but refused to do something. When it comes to Black shooters, automatic vilification. They don't see mental illness. They see it as gang violence, allegedly fatherless homes, Democratic policies or the need for more firearms. The far right and Republicans exploit gun violence in the Black community for culture wars and racism.
Teen's family demands accountability and a cannon firing of cop.

A man set himself on fire outside the Manhattan Supreme Court as former president Donald J. Trump begins his criminal hush money trial. This happened during jury selection and it stalled proceedings.
Max Azzarello was an extremely Troubled individual. He is currently alive in the hospital where all of his troubles are melting away pic.twitter.com/23zUuBvj4T
VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED. Absolutely disturbing footage of Max Azzarello who set himself on fire in New York today outside of Trumps trial. pic.twitter.com/ROA65RoN49
A man set himself on fire π₯ outside of the New York Courthouse where the #TrumpTrial is taking place. What the actual fuck?? https://t.co/WABGQwPl16
It appears that the man who self-immolated (set himself on fire) in front of the Trump Trial at the Manhattan courthouse was a man named Max Azzarello.
Max doesn't appear to have done this because of the Trump trial, but rather because he is a conspiracy theorist who thinks that… pic.twitter.com/4WOxPMxPbG
The New York Police Department, the FBI, U.S. Secret Service as well as Trump, President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Gov. Kathy Hochul, New York mayor Eric Adams, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) and several members of the New York congressional delegation were notified of it.
Laura Coates in a state of disbelief.
CNN host Laura Coates is the first to get the incident. It probably scarred her because what she witnessed was something that makes the network successful. Uncensored reality on cable news. Something that makes you want to consider why the free press is not only a protected treasure but a beacon of information.
Then anchor, Carol Lin was the first to call the Sept. 11, 2001 tragedy.
The person was from St. Augustine, Florida. He was a conspiracy theorist and dabbled in a random mix of extreme politics. As expected, the far right, the far left and the rest of us are wondering why would he do it to himself?
Of course, the blame game is going to..... Trump or Biden. New York City or the state of Florida. The left or the right. Hillary Clinton or Majorie Taylor Greene.
This is how America's most insufferable noisemakers work.
Instead of having an ounce of sympathy and offering their usual phony "thoughts and prayers," we immediately head right to the politics.
The man burned for several minutes in full view of television cameras that were set up outside the courthouse, where the first-ever criminal trial of a former U.S. president is being held.
"He was on fire for quite a while," one witness, who declined to give his name, told reporters. "It was pretty horrifying."
Officials said the man, who is in his late 30s, survived and was in critical condition at a hospital.
Witnesses said the man pulled pamphlets out of a backpack and threw them in the air before he doused himself with a liquid and set himself on fire. One of those pamphlets included references to "evil billionaires" but portions that were visible to a Reuters witness did not mention Trump.
The New York Police Department said the man, who they identified as Max Azzarello of St. Augustine, Florida, did not appear to be targeting Trump or others involved in the trial.
"Right now we are labeling him as sort of a conspiracy theorist, and we are going from there," Tarik Sheppard, a deputy commissioner with the Police Department, said at a news conference.
In an online manifesto, a man using that name said he set himself on fire and apologized to friends, witnesses and first responders. The post warns of "an apocalyptic fascist coup" and criticizes cryptocurrency and U.S. politicians, but does not single out Trump in particular.
A smell of smoke lingered in the plaza shortly after the incident, according to a Reuters witness, and a police officer sprayed a fire extinguisher on the ground. A smoldering backpack and a gas can were visible.
The downtown Manhattan courthouse, heavily guarded by police, drew a throng of protesters and onlookers on Monday, the trial's first day, though crowds have dwindled since then.
An evil man who fights hate with more hate. An American who operates on behalf of a foreign country.
Winners and losers of 2024.
The Anti-Defamation League and Jonathan Greenblatt operate on behalf the Israeli regime and it is time to call this organization out. It is not a civil rights group. It is a foreign intelligence operation that is placed as a spy agency for Israeli interest.
Greenblatt should register as a foreign agent on behalf of Israel.
The U.S. and Great Britain police agencies have gotten their training from Israel.
The U.S. have gotten their "counter terrorism intelligence" from the ADL and AIPAC. The intelligence from these two foreign operatives has led to American law enforcement's push for discriminatory policing against Blacks, Latinos, Arabs, South Asian, Muslims and immigrants. It has lead to police arresting college students who protest.
Protest is a symbol of American freedom.
President Joe Biden's chances for reelection are now 45%.
Biden's "ironclad" support for Israel has led to our taxpayer money being shoveled into this one sided genocidal ethnostate's actions in the Middle East.
The ADL is rolling out a set of initiatives to stifle free speech on college campuses.
The operative is giving "grades" and "tactics" to American colleges on how to handle protests.
The ADL as well as The Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law issued an open letter last week calling on university leaders to "investigate" pro-Palestinian student groups, alleging their speech constitutes “material support for terrorism,” punishable under federal and state law, despite no evidence to support such claims.
The ADL is completely over. They have decided to equate a foreign country to the Jewish faith. They have now declared that Israel is a religious state. They are now trying to silence the loud protests against the Israeli government and its assault on the Palestinians.
Israel is not a Jewish state. It is a unitary state with a republican form of government in which the political power is vested in and entrusted to the parliament with confidence by its electorate.
They have elected leaders and a functioning government. If it was a Jewish state, then it would be fascism. Because it would ban other religions and punish those who stand up to the authority.
Israel has been under fire for committing war crimes in the West Bank, Golan Heights, East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip. The country has continued building settlements in the West Bank despite the warnings it would flare tension.
Those living in the West Bank and Gaza Strip are being stripped of resources. Those living in the West Bank are banned from traveling on roads built to the settlements.
For the people of the Gaza Strip, they have no resources or the military to defend itself.
Since 2005, Israel has a blockade for aid to the Gaza Strip. Those who tried to bring aid into the Gaza Strip are stopped or shot.
The Palestinians have no military. Israel does and it has proven to be extremely brutal in its attacks.
Israel is a neo fascist country. They are masquerading as a legitimate democracy when its prime minister and his far right coalition are trying to eliminate the federal courts, outlaw integration, outlaw non white Jews, non white immigrants, make it a religious theocracy and brutally eliminate the other. They are trying to destroy democracy and wipe out the Palestinians who live in Gaza Strip, West Bank, East Jerusalem and Golan Heights.
We may think its China Russia and Iran interfering in our elections but in reality it's actually one. Israel is definitely involved in this. They are meddling in our elections too.
Just to make sure you don't forget. Donald J. Trump supports Israel, global wars and TikTok bans too. It was because of TikTok mocking him, Israel and the coronavirus challenges like licking a toilet seat.
From theRiver to the Sea, Palestine will be Free! π΅πΈ π
Cry more!
Israel for way too long has manipulated me with this endless victimhood. All the while pushing for an ethno-nationalist state, Israeli government leaders [both left and right] have called for the eradication of the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and West Bank.
The operatives have operated with shell agencies like the American Israel Public Affairs Committee and the Anti-Defamation League. These organizations operated at the behest of Israel.
Israel has fanned outrage over octopuses, buttons, protests at synagogues, protests at Holocaust museums, sleep ins at college campuses, comparing Zionism to Nazism, blocking roads, blocking bridges, wearing a keffiyeh, boycotting companies that do business with Israel and calling for international sanctions. Now Israel is outraged over the slightest suggestion of regime change and it comes from the biggest U.S. Zionists like Biden, Trump Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.
Israel keeps calling it an attack on Jewish people and it amounts to antisemitic propaganda.
Holding these lawmakers accountable is not just a pledge, but a promise. You need to learn who represents your community. Your local community member, your school board member, your mayor, your state representative, your state senator, your governor, your U.S. Representative, your U.S. Senator and the president need to be held accountable for their actions.
We need to put pressure on Republicans and Democrats to do something to improve everyone's lives.
Keep pressure on them with Israel.
Israel must be held accountable for war crimes and the U.S. must end its aid. Our taxpayer money should not help Israel any further.
They are feeling it. Democrats know the risk of supporters being turned off by their policies. They know that Biden is under extreme pressure to do something. Arab Americans, Muslim and young voters have vowed to never back Biden putting his reelection chances in danger.

If anyone trolls you about condemning Hamas for Oct. 7, 2023, kindly ignore them or respectfully tell them that Israel has committed an illegal occupation of Gaza, East Jerusalem, Golan Heights and the West Bank. They shoot innocent civilians and indiscriminately bomb heavily populated areas in Gaza and the West Bank.
Will you condemn the actions of Israel if I have to condemn Russia, Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas?
Two far right trolls told their baby to say Nigger. Now they are facing a backlash where not only their social media is cancelled but they may lose their child.
Josiah and Isabella Moody are anti-LGBTQ white nationalists who align themselves with the infamous Chaya Raichik and Alex Jones. They operate out of Phoenix and are known for promoting Christian nationalist bullshit.
The two received such fervent backlash because they thought it generate clicks and likes.
The Moodys are associated with Charlie Kirk and his white nationalist organization TurningPoint USA. It gave rise to shysters like Scott Presler, Candace Owens, Cassandra Fairbanks, Laura Loomer and Jacob Wohl.
Isabella Moody has completely ghosted herself from social media
Israel continues illegal airstrikes on Iran, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and the Gaza Strip.
Israel is now at risk of sparking a conflict in the Middle East.
Israel may have launched unlawful strikes in Iran, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria.
Israel went there and now all the card on the table and there will be retaliation from not just Iran but Syria, Yemen and Iraq.
The Arab League will certainly put the Israelis on notice that their unlawful behavior will be met with swift action.
Now the United Nations, Great Britain, European Union and the United States told Israel to not further escalation. Israel ignore them and decided to proceed.
When will the U.S. sever ties with Israel?
On top of that, when will the United Nations push for sanctions and launch an embargo on the Israeli government?
Israel, early Friday morning local time, launched missiles in a retaliatory strike against Iran, a senior U.S. official told ABC News.
The missile launches follow Iran's attack last Saturday, where the country sent a volley of more than 300 uncrewed drones and missiles toward targets throughout the country, Israeli military officials previously said. All but a few were intercepted by Israel and its allies, including the United States, officials said.
Iran's attack came more than six months after Hamas terrorists invaded Israel on Oct. 7, after which the Israeli military began its bombardment of the Gaza Strip.
Iran vows retaliation.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the country's war cabinet have met several times since the Iran strikes, and as ABC News previously reported, at least two strikes were previously aborted.
We may think its China Russia and Iran interfering in our elections but in reality it's actually one. Israel is definitely involved in this. They are meddling in our elections too.

Uri Berlinger decides to quit instead of being fired.
Winners and losers of 2024.
He can join Greta Van Susteren, Todd Starnes, Kevin Jackson, Catherine Herridge and all the other nuts on Newsmax or One America's Voice. Or he could fade away. I could care less.
Uri Berlinger announced he will resign from NPR. The public radio network was about to terminate the conspiracy theorist after he wrote a piece criticizing the network for not promoting far right propaganda.
He wrote a piece on a far right platform and did not clear it with NPR staff. They were angered by this and it forced a freezer for Berlinger. So instead of taking his pu ishment, he wants to be a martyr for the far right. David Folkenflik, NPR's Media Correspondent detailed the former colleague and his bogus claims that NPR operated as a propaganda for progressive politics. The very fact that fool did that was the network's decision to hire a woman who previously criticized former president Donald J. Trump for his pattern of lies and his pattern of
"I am resigning from NPR, a great American institution where I have worked for 25 years," Berliner wrote in an email to CEO Katherine Maher. "I respect the integrity of my colleagues and wish for NPR to thrive and do important journalism. But I cannot work in a newsroom where I am disparaged by a new CEO whose divisive views confirm the very problems at NPR I cite in my Free Press essay."
NPR and Maher declined to comment on his resignation.
The Free Press, an online site embraced by journalists who believe that the mainstream media has become too liberal, published Berliner's piece last Tuesday. In it, he argued that NPR's coverage has increasingly reflected a rigid progressive ideology. And he argued that the network's quest for greater diversity in its workforce — a priority under prior chief executive John Lansing – has not been accompanied by a diversity of viewpoints presented in NPR shows, podcasts or online coverage.
Later that same day, NPR pushed back against Berliner's critique.
"We're proud to stand behind the exceptional work that our desks and shows do to cover a wide range of challenging stories," NPR's chief news executive, Edith Chapin, wrote in a memo to staff . "We believe that inclusion — among our staff, with our sourcing, and in our overall coverage — is critical to telling the nuanced stories of this country and our world."
Yet Berliner's commentary has been embraced by conservative and partisan Republican critics of the network, including former President Donald Trump and the activist Christopher Rufo.
Rufo is posting a parade of old social media posts from Maher, who took over NPR last month. In two examples, she called Trump a racist and also seemed to minimize the effects of rioting in 2020. Rufo is using those to rally public pressure for Maher's ouster, as he did for former Harvard University President Claudine Gay.
Gay was the first African American woman to be president of Harvard. Because of that damn Israel and its fucking war crimes and genocide, the students protested against its donors and staff support of Israel. Rufo, a white nationalist pushed for Gay's ouster because she didn't stifle protests.
In 2023, Rufo and co-author Christopher Brunet investigated the past research of Harvard University president Claudine Gay, who had recently attracted controversy over her handling of antisemitism at the university and her defense of the university's handling of the situation at a congressional hearing. Rufo and Brunet alleged that many of her articles, including her dissertation, were plagiarized. Following further investigations of the plagiarism allegations in mainstream media outlets, Gay announced her resignation on January 2, 2024. In an interview with Politico, Rufo stated that Gay's resignation "was the result of a coordinated and highly organized conservative campaign."
Others have used the moment to call for the elimination of federal funding for NPR – less than one percent of its roughly $300 million annual budget – and local public radio stations, which derive more of their funding from the government.
Berliner reiterated in his resignation letter that he does not support such calls.
In a brief interview, he condemned a statement Maher issued Friday in which she suggested that he had questioned "whether our people are serving our mission with integrity, based on little more than the recognition of their identity." She called that "profoundly disrespectful, hurtful, and demeaning."
Berliner subsequently exchanged emails with Maher, but she did not address those comments.
"It's been building up," Berliner said of his decision to resign, "and it became clear it was on today."
For publishing his essay in The Free Press and appearing on its podcast, NPR had suspended Berliner for five days without pay. Its formal rebuke noted he had done work outside NPR without its permission, as is required, and shared proprietary information.
She's been called worse. But yes, Marjorie Taylor Greene is an insufferable idiot.
What are they gonna do about it?
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is the most laziest member of the House. About 85% of her time is not in her district. She represents the 14th Congressional District, which covers several Atlanta suburbs and Northwest Georgia.
If you do the math, the amount of time spent when Greene is in Congress is 40% and 35% doing things that are not in her district. Greene has been at former president Donald J. Trump's campaign rallies and promoting her books, podcasts and her
And even if she did, she does them with a heavy security presence. Because of her presence in the junk food media as well as her controversial views, she will constantly be a distraction to Congress.
Greene still refers Trump as the president.
She is very insufferable and most lawmakers would rather see her out of the spotlight.
As Republicans are struggling to keep their majority, Greene has decided to dangle a motion to vacate on House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). The Republican is upset that House members are about to vote for funding to Ukraine and authorizing FISA.
The Republicans marched to the Senate with an Article of Impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. The Senate took a vote on whether a trial will be held. The Democrats along with independents, Kyrsten Sinema, Angus King and Bernie Sanders voted to end debate. Republicans didn't stand a chance. Lisa Murkowski voted present and showed frustration with Republicans and especially the flipper Mitt Romney. Even Romney knew that the impeachment on Mayorkas was sham but still voted with the party.
Greene and Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) have confirmed that they will issue a floor vote.
A far right agitator from Fox had enough.
She has called out Greene.
The agitator wrote that Greene is an idiot. She said that she is too busy being showboat instead of a lawmaker united in helping Trump win against Biden.
It’s high time someone in the Republican Party told Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene to turn all that bombastic self-serving showmanship and drama queen energy on Democrats, and stop trying to defeat her own party.
Greene, who was elected by a total of 170,162 voters in 2022 in a district that the Cook Report rates R+22, doesn’t like any of it and would rather burn down the House, metaphorically speaking, than work towards the greater good. The greater good, unless she and her fellow discontents in Congress have forgotten, is defeating Joe Biden in November.
Republicans won't dedicate laws to women of color.
LAKEN RILEY'S DEATH BECOMES A WHITE SUPREMACIST FEVER DREAM.
Breona Taylor was killed by the American police. The #SayHerName hashtag was devoted to a EMS worker shot and killed by the Louisville Metro Police while sleeping.
Riley's murder became a "national political case" during what Forbes' Sara Dorn called a "historic surge in border crossings during Biden's tenure". It was highly publicized by the national media and the press.
Her family says they plan to establish a foundation in her honor. Her stepfather said: "She will be missed every day, but we promise to honor her life moving forward in a very big way".
Former president Donald Trump posted on Truth Social: "Border INVASION is destroying our country and killing our citizens! The horrible murder of 22-year-old Laken Riley at the University of Georgia should have NEVER happened!" He later met with Riley's mother and stepfather before his campaign rally in Rome, Georgia on March 9, 2024.
So if Republicans are done exploiting the name of Laken Riley, how about they refocus their outrage on the Wisconsin woman who was murdered and dismembered?
Her killer is an American white man who grew up in a privileged society.
No outrage from Trump, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) or Fox.
Sade Robinson is just a shade darker and the suspect isn't a Black man, a Brown man, an immigrant or a Muslim. If Sade was white and the suspect was not white, Fox and the Republicans would push for harsher laws and blame President Joe Biden for the actions of that suspect.
The predator sexually assaulted and dismembered Sade Robinson.
As many including myself are turning to social media to find relationships. Although I am a lot less interested in finding the right woman, I am just patient for now.
People on dating profiles aren't what they said to be. So thus, I rather be single.
Sade meet Maxwell Anderson through those dating apps. They went on a date and somehow she never made it home. Anderson, a bartender who previously worked for his father's insurance companies, appeared in court Friday after allegedly butchering 19-year-old Sade Robinson on April 1.
The long-haired accused murderer, who owns a criminal history including convictions for battery and domestic abuse, had taken Robinson - 14 years his junior - on a date at a seafood restaurant where he reportedly worked for a time.
Anderson, of Milwaukee, was arrested April 4, two days after the leg was found by a passersby down a bluff at Warnimont Park along Lake Michigan in Cudahy. The leg had been severed just below the hip.
Robinson had been reported missing April 2 by a friend. An employee of the building where Robinson lived told police that Robinson was excited about a date she had planned for April 1, according to the complaint.
Surveillance video from a restaurant showed Robinson and Anderson sitting together at the bar on the evening of April 1. Her burned car was found the next morning.
Additional human remains were found April 5 and April 6. Those remains have not positively been identified as belonging to Robinson, police said.
“At this point in time, we don’t believe there are any other victims out there,” Milwaukee County Sheriff Denita Ball told reporters Friday.
Anderson was ordered held on a $5 million bond. A preliminary examination was set for April 22.
The Associated Press left a voicemail Friday seeking comment from an attorney listed as representing Maxwell.
The day after she disappeared, the Milwaukee Fire Department also responded to a vehicle fire, with investigators finding that it was Robinson's Honda Civic that had been set ablaze.
Investigators were able to find pieces of Robinson's ripped jeans and white shirt that she was wearing, alongside the singed remains of her phone.
That same day, cops were called to the discovery of a human leg at Warnimont Park, which was noted as having been 'sawn off' just below the hip.
The leg was ruled to have belonged to a black female, with pink nail polish still on the toes, and a DNA test found that it belonged to the 19-year-old.
More remains were found days later on April 5 and 7 around the city of Milwaukee, including a human foot and 'what appeared to be human flesh', cops said.
Missing white woman syndrome has led to a number of tough on crime measures, mainly on the right, that were named for white women who disappeared and were subsequently found harmed. In addition to race and class, factors such as supposed attractiveness, body size and youthfulness function as unfair criteria in the determination of newsworthiness in coverage of missing women. News coverage of missing black women were more likely to focus on the victim's problems, such as abusive boyfriends or a troubled past, while coverage of white women often tend to focus on their roles as mothers or daughters.
Black women and indigenous women are missing far more and yet they never get the attention that white women get. Think about Gabby Petito, Natalee Holloway, JonBenet Ramsey and Lacy Peterson. Think about the amount of attention they gotten and their killers got.
Sade was studying for criminal justice. Her life was taken too early.
If the suspect is Black, Muslim or immigrant, the white extremists would often troll Black blogs and social media to throw inappropriate discussions about how white women should avoid relationships with people of color. They would use racial slurs, coded language and concern trolling as an excuse to justify their hatred.
How many women of color are killed by white men?
Do white men often troll social media with "thoughts and prayers" to women of color?
It is an easy answer......!
The suspect is likely to get LIFE in the iron college if convicted on murder and sexual assault alone. Kidnapping, arson, depriving a corpse and mutilation are likely going to he added to his list of offenses.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Former kidnapping victim and victim's right advocate Elizabeth Smart has pressed the junk food media to give attention to all people missing (especially woman of color). She voiced frustration over missing Black and indigenous woman who rarely get coverage.
Smart's case attracted major media attention and led to the arrest of two predators. She stated that the junk food media needs to do better when it comes to covering missing people and rape victims.
For all the lies and misinformation, Smartmatic System's reputation was slandered. Many of the most controversial figures in the far right grift lied to the American voters.
One America News Network (OANN) reached a settlement with Smartmatic. The company settled with an undisclosed amount.
They spinned lies about former president Donald J. Trump being denied a victory because of illegal immigrants voting, urban voters voting twice, voting systems changing votes from Trump to Biden, social media shielding the Hunter Biden laptop scandal and other conspiracy theories.
Fox, Newsmax, Mike Lindell, America's Real Voice, OANN, Breitbart, Salem Radio and X promoted the lies and misinformation. They are currently engaged in this as Trump is expected to be in court and campaigning.
The settlement between Florida-based Smartmatic and OANN is the latest development in a larger legal pushback by voting equipment companies that became ensnared in wild conspiracy theories falsely claiming they had flipped votes and cost former Trump reelection.
In a statement, the company said it had “resolved its litigation with OANN through a confidential settlement.” The dismissal of its lawsuit was filed in federal court in the District of Columbia. Chip Babcock, a Houston-based attorney representing the news outlet, confirmed the case had been resolved but said he was unable to disclose any of the settlement terms.

Smartmatic was an odd target for the conspiracy theorists because use of its voting technology and software was so limited. It was used only in Los Angeles County, a Democratic stronghold in a state that was not a presidential battleground and where Trump did not contest his loss.
But the company has for years also provided voting services in Venezuela, and that created a springboard for phony claims that a foreign company was involved in a vast conspiracy to flip the election from Trump to Democrat Joe Biden. Smartmatic also has active lawsuits against Fox and the conservative outlet Newsmax over similar complaints.
Fox has said it had a First Amendment right to air claims about an election that were being promoted by prominent figures.
Last year, on the eve of a trial, Fox agreed to pay $787 million to settle a defamation lawsuit filed by a much larger voting technology company, Dominion Voting Systems, which claimed the network and its hosts spread false claims that its equipment helped rig the election against Trump. Dominion has other defamation lawsuits that remain active, including one against One America News Network.
The conspiracy theories relating to voting equipment and software are among the lies about the outcome of the 2020 presidential election won by Biden. Numerous reviews, audits and recounts in the presidential swing states where Trump contested his loss have affirmed Biden’s victory, and there has been no evidence of widespread fraud. Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, is facing federal and state charges related to his attempts to overturn the results.
