Twitter Suspends @NewsChute In Latest Round of Orwellian Censorship

Twitter suspended the account, which was linked to YouTube alternative BitChute.

By Richard Moorhead

In the latest round of Orwellian censorship, Twitter has suspended an account linked to alternative tech platform BitChute, in what many are calling a shamelessly anti-competitive move to damage a social media platform that declines to censor right-of-center content.

NewsChute, a news service associated with YouTube competitor BitChute, was banned from the platform on Thursday night.

Twitter appears to be excusing the suspension under a ‘repeat offender’ rule, which mandates that site users previously suspended from Twitter receive new suspensions on any and all accounts they try to start. BitChute had hired journalist Nick Monroe to head the project, a conservative journalist known for in-depth research into leftist conspiracies and mainstream media bias.

Monroe had been suspended from Twitter on his personal account two months ago, allegedly for already evading blanket bans for his Twitter presence. The redundancy of the charges against Monroe raise serious questions, making many question whether he’s being banned for creating new accounts or simply because he’s an inconvenient figure in the eyes of Jack Dorsey and the other milquetoast Silicon Valley neoliberals running Twitter as their personal kingdom.

The action is even more shameless in light of BitChute’s status as a free speech competitor to YouTube, offering a video streaming service open to diverse forms of political speech. YouTube has sought to suppress shoestring content creators for months now, preferring a stale and controlled political media environment in which legacy dinosaur media companies such as MSNBC and CNN are given a generous handicap to peddle their stale content to the public.

It’s possible the ban could be reversed, but Dorsey’s apparent personal grudge against Monroe make it seem less than likely.

HUGE LOSS: 70 House Democrats Refuse Media Appearance Following Mueller Debacle

The Democrats are hiding in shame after Mueller’s testimony before Congress.

By Shane Trejo

The Democratic Party took a huge loss yesterdayafter staging a hearing with FBI special investigator Robert Mueller before two Congressional committees. Unable to face the music following Mueller’s poor performance, 70 different House Democrats denied a media request.

Fox News anchor Shannon Bream issued a Tweet explaining how the Democrats were too scared to face the scrutiny after their spectacle backfired on them:

CAP

Mueller appeared confused and disheveled while giving his testimony, was unfamiliar with basic facts contained in his own report, and refused to answer simple questions regarding his investigation. Democrat dreams of impeaching Trump based on the contents of the Mueller report may have went up in smoke for good yesterday.

Republicans, including President Trump himself, are celebrating this political victory. They are making the rounds and pointing to Mueller’s testimony as more evidence that the Russian collusion investigation was a witch hunt from the start.

CAP

“It was a terrible day if you were a Democrat,” Former Republican South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy said while appearing on Fox News yesterday. “I do want to give them credit for this. They managed to have a hearing without calling a convicted felon as a witness. I don’t want us to overlook that.”

The fake news couldn’t even spin this one on behalf of the Democrats:

The Democrats can run from media appearances, but they cannot hide from the upcoming fallout with the voters in 2020. After Mueller was exposed in the public eye, the Democrats’ Russia canard will never carry the same weight with the American people.

RESURFACED INTERVIEW FEATURES ILHAN OMAR URGING AMERICANS TO BE “FEARFUL OF WHITE MEN”

Resurfaced Interview Features Ilhan Omar Urging Americans to be "Fearful of White Men"

“We should be profiling…white men.”

July 25, 2019

A 2018 interview Rep. Ilhan Omar gave to Al-Jazeera has resurfaced in which Omar says Americans should be “more fearful of white men” than potential Islamic terrorists.

Omar was asked if she thought conservatives were right to have a legitimate fear of Islam given the spate of Islamic terror attacks in America, including the 2017 truck attack in New York.

“I would say our country should be more fearful of white men across our country because they are actually causing most of the deaths within this country, and so if fear was the driving force of policies to keep America safe, Americans safe inside of this country, we should be profiling, monitoring, and creating policies to fight the radicalization of white men,” Omar said in response.

The comments are receiving fresh attention due to Omar’s recent spat with President Trump and her repeated refusal to denounce Al-Qaeda and Islamic terrorism.

As we highlighted earlier this week, the Minnesota Congresswoman told an audience she is “disgusted” to be asked to condemn Al-Qaeda and female genital mutilation, arguing that merely posing the question alone is Islamophobic and a “waste of time.”

As Raheem Kassam pointed out, the fact that Mehdi Hasan is hosting in this clip is also of note given that Hasan has previously called non-Muslims “cattle” and “people of no intelligence.”

Viral Video Shows Crazed Rashida Tlaib Being Dragged Out of Trump Campaign Event in 2016

 

-By Rusty Weiss

Apparently, Rep. Rashida Tlaib was a crazed lunatic long before her famous profanity-laced tirade vowing to pursue impeachment of President Trump on her first day in office.

A video has surfaced of the Michigan Democrat being forcibly dragged out of a Trump campaign event in 2016 by Secret Service agents. The video is every bit as unhinged as you might expect and then some.

Trending: Don’t Be Fooled: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ‘Republican’ Challenger Scherie Murray is a Democrat Plant

In the video, Tlaib can be seen repeatedly trying to break free of the grip of security members escorting her from the facility. She screams, “You guys are crazy!” at supporters of the soon-to-be President, seemingly unaware that she’s the one being hauled off due to her crazed behavior.

The congresswoman was joined by about a dozen women who tried to create a commotion during Trump’s speech at the Detroit Economic Club in August 2016.

Tlaib wrote about the incident in a column for the Detroit Free Press:

I told Trump that “our children deserve better” and I asked him to provide a better example to our kids. I implored him to read the U.S. Constitution. And then I was grabbed by several security personnel who physically moved me to the exit while I continued to express my concerns.

Of course, none of this bears out based on the video clip. Her essay insinuates she calmly ‘expressed my concerns’ about the Constitution and being a better example to kids. Not sure how ‘You guys are crazy!’ even comes close to that.

Tlaib lied. Huh. Who could have possibly guessed?

Impeach the MFer

It’s important to realize Tlaib was actually a state legislator at the time of this incident. The people of her district in Michigan thought her worthy of holding public office.

So much so that they sent her on to Congress in 2018.

And she didn’t let them down, demonstrating she was still that unhinged nut case she was in the 2016 video on her very first day as a Representative.

“When your son looks at you and says: ‘Momma, look, you won. Bullies don’t win.’ And I said, ‘Baby, they don’t,’” Tlaib told a crowd of adoring fans. “Because we’re going to go in there, and we’re going to impeach the motherf***er.”

What an absolute embarrassment for the state of Michigan.

Trump’s Response Was Epic

Another video surfacing during the speech in which Tlaib had a meltdown involves Trump’s response as she’s being carted off.

In that clip, the future President mocks the terrorist-sympathizing Tlaib as being a bit low-energy.

“I will say the Bernie Sanders people had far more energy and spirit,” he joked. “I will say that.”

Tlaib said last month that she gave every freshman in Congress a book on impeachingPresident Trump when she arrived in Washington, D.C., showing just how deep her derangement runs.

It also shows that on her one major platform as a congresswoman she has failed miserably. Watching his re-election in 2020 should be a lot of fun.

Trump Administration Rule Proposal Will Cut 3 Million Undeserving People Off Food Stamps

Screen Shot 2019-07-25 at 11.04.02 AM

By Jeff Dunetz

The Trump administration is proposing a rule change that would cut up to 3.1 million people from the food stamp program, saving taxpayers $2.5 billion annually.

The revised regulation would require people who currently receive Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, or TANF, to undergo a separate income review to determine if they are eligible for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).

Currently, U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) officials say, 43 states automatically allow their reside

“Some states are taking advantage of loopholes that allow people to receive the SNAP benefits who would otherwise not qualify and for which they are not entitled,” Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue revealed in a conference call.

“This proposal will save money and preserve the integrity of the program,” Perdue argued, adding that “SNAP should be a temporary safety net.”

Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) said the rule change is an attempt by the administration to “circumvent Congress and make harmful changes to nutrition assistance that have been repeatedly rejected on a bipartisan basis.”

The Trump administration has argued that a booming economy has helped lower the unemployment rate to full employment, making food stamp assistance less necessary.

When Barack Obama entered office in 2009, about 33 million Americans were enrolled in SNAP. By 2013, that number had shot upto 48 million, an indication of his awful economic programs.

On the other hand, because of his successful economic programs , two million Americans dropped from the food stamp program during Trump’s first year as President, which at that time was the lowest point in eight years.

The President announced earlier this month that “Food Stamp participation hits 10 year low,” a comment verified by left-leaning fact-checking website, Politifact.

During his State of the Union address, President Trump bragged about the roaring economy and its role in changing how more people are working instead of relying on food stamps.

“Wages are rising at the fastest pace if decades and growing for blue-collar workers who I promised to fight for, they’re growing faster than anyone else thought possible,” he said to uproarious applause. “Nearly five million Americans have been lifted off food stamps.”

Work is the most critical way to escape poverty. President Trump s proving that.
