JOHN STOSSEL ON CENSORSHIP: GOOGLE & FACEBOOK CROSS ‘THE CREEPY LINE’ DAILY

 

John Stossel On Censorship: Google & Facebook Cross ‘The Creepy Line’ Daily

‘Their ability to manipulate the algorithm is something that they’ve demonstrated,’ says expert

Mac Slavo | SHTF Plan – DECEMBER 5, 2018

John Stossel has recently said that Google and Facebook aren’t just guilty of censorship, but they cross “the creepy line” of suppression of speech daily. Both companies have an obvious agenda, and they have proven that they will silence those who dissent.

“It is a company that has an agenda,” the writer of “The Creepy Line,” Peter Schweizer, says in Stossel’s latest video. Google executives do give much more money to Democrats than Republicans. Eric Schmidt even advised Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, according to a Fox News op-ed by Stossel on censorship.

“Their ability to manipulate the algorithm is something that they’ve demonstrated,” says Schweizer, and last election Google put positive stories about Hillary Clinton higher in Google searches.

Hillary Clinton may have lost by a substantially larger margin had Google not manipulated the search results in her favor. Even trending negative searches about the corrupt democrat were suppressed. According to an exclusive by Breitbart, the conclusions are based on 16 months of experiments conducted with a total of 1,800 people from all 50 U.S. states. Participants in the study came from diverse ideological backgrounds, including liberal, conservative, and moderate. In order to control prior biases, participants were asked to judge political candidates that they were unfamiliar with.

The research showed that the manipulation of results pages in search engines can shift the voting preferences of undecideds by anywhere between 20 and 80 percent, depending on the demographic –meaning Google was attempting to rig the 2016 election for Hillary Clinton. -SHTFPlan

Both Google and Facebook have attempted to claim they are unbiased, yet their actions continue to show otherwise. “But they’re not using unbiased algorithms to do things like search for unacceptable content,” says psychologist Jordan Peterson in the documentary. “They’re built specifically to filter out whatever’s bad.” And “whatever’s bad” is anything that goes against the liberal agenda of a complete totalitarian and authoritarian regime where the government controls every aspect of every human beings life.

Mark Zuckerberg even testified that Facebook actively filters out “hate speech, terrorist content, nudity, anything that makes people feel unsafe.” And feelings, as anyone with two functioning brain cells to rub together knows, are highly subjective and wholly biased.

My TV channel, “Stossel TV,” will survive if YouTube won’t let young people watch some of my videos, but it’s a big setback.

My purpose in making the videos is to reach kids, to educate them about the benefits of free markets. It’s why I started StosselInTheClassroom.org, a nonprofit that provides videos, plus teachers’ guides, free to teachers.

If Google and Facebook decide adults should be “protected” from seeing those videos, too, then “Stossel TV” will go dark –John Stossel via Fox News

“Whatever the assumptions are that Google operates under are going to be the filters that determine how the world is simplified and presented,” said Peterson in the video. But what can be done? Market competition. The government should do nothing.

But “The Creepy Line” makes a compelling case that a small number of people at a few Silicon Valley companies have tremendous power to do creepy things.

Will Congress Ask James Comey Why Clinton-connected Bomber Was Working with the DOJ & DHS During the 2016 Election?

by Jim Hoft December 4, 2018

Capture

Brett Kimberlin and fired FBI Chief James Comey

Brett Kimberlin, a convicted serial bomber and leftist activist with longtime connections to a Clinton insider who put together a second “dossier” on Trump that was sent to the FBI by Christopher Steele, has claimed on his blog Protect Our Elections that he “worked extensively with cyber experts in here and abroad on measures that can be employed to counter Russian malign” and that since “March of 2016, we have also provided significant information about this to the Department of Justice.”

In 1996, the Chicago Tribune described Kimberlin:

Kimberlin, the child of a middle-class Indianapolis family, was convicted in 1981 for a series of bombings around the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, one of which tore off most of a man’s leg. Described by (journalist Mark Singer) as “Indianapolis’ own homegrown, holistic Hannibal Lecter,” he had dealt drugs, been involved in a health foods business and pulled some cons, proving alternately engaging and duplicitous.

During the 1992 presidential election that eventually saw Bill Clinton defeat George H.W. Bush, Kimberlin falsely claimed that he had sold marijuana to Bush’s V.P. Dan Quayle, a charge that facilitated by long-time Clinton insider Cody Shearer. As the Hartford Courant reported in 1991 about how the Kimberlin gained publicity via Garry Trudeau’s cartoon Doonesbury:

Today, Garry Trudeau’s satirical cartoon strip begins a two-week series suggesting that federal officials in 1988 covered up an investigation into 1982 allegations that Vice President Dan Quayle had bought cocaine. No basis was found for the allegations against Quayle, then a U.S. senator.

…

“I want to make it clear I never talked to Garry Trudeau,” Kimberlin, jailed since 1979, said from prison last week, although at least one person who had spoken to Kimberlin — Washington free-lance columnist Cody Shearer — has also spoken with Trudeau.

This decades long connection between Kimberlin and Cody Shearer is notable because both Kimberlin and Shearer were actively working behind the scenes to dig up dirt on Donald Trump and supply it to both journalists and the FBI.

Kimberlin’s work with Democrats to take down Trump wouldn’t come to light until well after the election, and given Kimberlin’s part, it should be a major story in its own right. Instead, the mainstream media ignored it.

As the Daily Caller reported:

A former official with the Democratic National Committee has worked in recent months with a convicted domestic terrorist-turned-activist known as the “Speedway Bomber” to gather information on Donald Trump, The Daily Caller has learned.

That work culminated in a Washington, D.C. meeting in December between the ex-DNC operative, Alexandra Chalupa, the convicted bomber, Brett Kimberlin, and a South Africa-born Israeli man named Yoni Ariel.

Politico reported that longtime DNC Operative and Ukrainian-American Alexandra Chalupa was collaborating with the Ukrainian government to try to get dirt on the Trump campaign in the spring of 2016. After leaving prison, Kimberlin did unspecified work in Ukraine and would eventually marry a Ukrainian woman.

The day after the 2016 election Chalupa wrote on her Facebook page:

Homeland Security/DOJ teamed up with a group that is part of Anonymous based in Washington, D.C. called “The Protectors.” This group saw a lot of activity during Election Day from the Russians…

The claim that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Department of Justice would team up with an Anonymous-connected group is eyebrow raising and Comey needs to be questioned on it.

But the group mentioned “The Protectors” (as in Kimberlin’s site ProtectOurElections. org) is also directly connected to Brett Kimberlin. The Daily Caller reported in 2012 on a publicity scam involving the group “The Protectors” the Chalupa would refer to in 2016 and Brett Kimberlin:

A mysterious hacktivist group called The Protectors says it is responsible for Project ORCA’s technical failures on Election Day, even though it has offered no proof to support the claim.

Velvet Revolution and Justice Through Music, both activist organizations founded by convicted bomber-felon Brett Kimberlin, had offered a million dollar bounty to tech savvy people prior to Election Day to prove instances of tampering with voting machines.

Kimberlin also testified under oath in a court case in 2016 that he was working with the Department of Justice and referred to a hacking team that works for him:

We’re doing a lot of-because my wife’s from Ukraine, we’re doing a lot of work with Ukraine. Right now, I’m working with Congressmembers on legislation to protect the vote. I’m working with the Department of Justice right now to protect this coming election. There’s a lot of information about hacking by Russian, and our team that works for me are specialists in hacking and electronic cyberhacking and things like that

Weeks after Chalupa made the claim that the Kimberlin-connected hackers were working with Comey’s DOJ and the Department of Homeland Security, a number of states notice their computers had been scanned by IP addresses from the Department of Homeland Security.

DHS would go on to claim that there was “Russian hacking” (as Kimberlin claims to be working on) but that claim was strongly denied by the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS), who released a statement in November, 2017 that said the “November 2016 election was NOT HACKED” and went on to call for a

…thorough accounting and resolution of documented instances of unauthorized scanning against several states’ election networks that has been attributed to IP addresses utilized by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.”

In other words, weeks after Chalupa claimed that the Kimberlin-connected hackers were working with Comey’s DOJ and the Department of Homeland Security, several states noticed that IP addresses from the DHS were scanning their systems.

Chalupa did not clarify in her post why a long-time DNC Operative and a convicted felon were working with DOJ or DHS or why they would even know about DOJ and DHS operations.

Perhaps James Comey can clarify.

Four Out Of Five Racist Notes Were Fake At An Iowa University: School Officials

Authored by Neetu Chandak via The Daily Caller,

Officials at an Iowa university said an 18-year-old student is facing criminal charges after being believed to have written four out of five racist notes on campus.

The Drake University student, who has not been identified, admitted to writing one of the notes and also allegedly received one of the notes, the Des Moines Register reported Friday. The student reported four racist notes, which officials believe to be hoaxes.

“The fact that the actions of the student who has admitted guilt were propelled by motives other than hate does not minimize the worry and emotional harm they caused, but should temper fears,” Drake University President Marty Martin wrote in a statement to students and staff, according to the Register.

Martin added the notes reported on Nov. 13, Nov. 15 and on Nov. 28 are “copycat hoaxes of an initial campus incident.”

The initial note is not linked to the four fake notes, the Register reported. Des Moines police spokesman Paul Parizek said the female student faces harassment charges.

She could also face expulsion from the university, Drake spokesman Jarad Bernstein said, according to the Register. More than 3,000 students along with other people hosted a rally as a result of the reported notes. A student speaker at the rally believed her life was in danger at the school. Students also covered a street that is typically filled with colorful artwork with black paint.

“To demonstrate shared commitment to Drake University’s students of color, the campus community will join together to paint the Painted Street black, a powerful statement of solidarity and anti-racism,” a Paint It Black: Street Painting event on Facebook said.

The investigation is ongoing at the university.

This is not the first time a racist note’s legitimacy is questioned at a university. A Kansas State University student allegedly wrote a hoax racist note and posted it on his apartment door. The note was reported to police on Nov. 8, a day prior to the midterm elections.

Drake University did not immediately respond to The Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

#MeToo Backfires: Wall Street’s New Rule Is ‘Avoid Women At All Cost’

By Chris Menahan

No one could have predicted this!

From Bloomberg:

No more dinners with female colleagues. Don’t sit next to them on flights. Book hotel rooms on different floors. Avoid one-on-one meetings.

In fact, as a wealth adviser put it, just hiring a woman these days is “an unknown risk.” What if she took something he said the wrong way?

Across Wall Street, men are adopting controversial strategies for the #MeToo era and, in the process, making life even harder for women.

Just ignore the fact #MeToo made life infinitely harder for men.

Call it the Pence Effect, after U.S. Vice President Mike Pence, who has said he avoids dining alone with any woman other than his wife. In finance, the overarching impact can be, in essence, gender segregation.

Interviews with more than 30 senior executives suggest many are spooked by #MeToo and struggling to cope. “It’s creating a sense of walking on eggshells,” said David Bahnsen, a former managing director at Morgan Stanley who’s now an independent adviser overseeing more than $1.5 billion.

Many are also having their lives destroyed due to false accusations.

Now, more than a year into the #MeToo movement — with its devastating revelations of harassment and abuse in Hollywood, Silicon Valley and beyond — Wall Street risks becoming more of a boy’s club, rather than less of one.

“Women are grasping for ideas on how to deal with it, because it is affecting our careers,” said Karen Elinski, president of the Financial Women’s Association and a senior vice president at Wells Fargo & Co. “It’s a real loss.”

Just pull yourself up by your bootstraps!

There’s a danger, too, for companies that fail to squash the isolating backlash and don’t take steps to have top managers be open about the issue and make it safe for everyone to discuss it, said Stephen Zweig, an employment attorney with FordHarrison.

“If men avoid working or traveling with women alone, or stop mentoring women for fear of being accused of sexual harassment,” he said, “those men are going to back out of a sexual harassment complaint and right into a sex discrimination complaint.”

This is the ridiculous situation we now find ourselves in.

Being accused of sexual discrimination is nothing compared to being falsely accused of rape, so don’t expect this trend to reverse.

There are as many or more men who are responding in quite different ways. One, an investment adviser who manages about 100 employees, said he briefly reconsidered having one-on-one meetings with junior women. He thought about leaving his office door open, or inviting a third person into the room.

Finally, he landed on the solution: “Just try not to be an asshole.”

Tucker Carlson was accused of rape by a woman he never met.

Innocence is no defense when the law of the land is “believe survivors.”

Note too, that clown “investment adviser” refused to give his name.

The article finishes with a woman demanding men give women special treatment in the name of chivalry:

“There aren’t enough women in senior positions to bring along the next generation all by themselves,” said Lisa Kaufman, chief executive officer of LaSalle Securities. “Advancement typically requires that someone at a senior level knows your work, gives you opportunities and is willing to champion you within the firm. It’s hard for a relationship like that to develop if the senior person is unwilling to spend one-on-one time with a more junior person.”

Men have to step up, she said, and “not let fear be a barrier.”

It’s amazing how “empowered women” seamlessly transition into “damsels in distress” whenever it suits them.

Shockingly, it was reported earlier this year that similar has happened in Canada:

The newfound ability to destroy a man through mere accusations does not come without costs!

MSNBC Guest: Dems Must ‘Stop Pandering To The White Working Class… That Isn’t The Future Of This Country’

By Chris Menahan

Danielle Moodie-Mills told MSNBC host Chris Hayes on Wednesday that Democrats need to “stop pandering to the white working class” which is demographically becoming a minority because they’re not “the future of this country.”

After saying that “white Americans” and “conservative Americans” are “afraid of what’s coming down the pike” demographically, the Woke AF host said:

“What Democrats need to stop doing is stop pandering to the white working class as if they’re the only ones that are part of the working class. This is the problem. When we get into identity politics and we were told, after the 2016 election: ‘stop talking about identity politics, that’s what lost us the election.'”

“No.”

“What lost us the election is constantly pandering to a class that isn’t on your side, that isn’t the future of this country, that isn’t the future of the party. What black Americans have shown time and time again is that they are the backbone of the Democratic Party, and yet receive none of the investment from it.”

“So the idea is this: let us stop pretending that white women and white men are going to save us from ourselves. They’re not going to. They’re always going to vote with their whiteness. That’s the reality. That’s the reality that we’re living in.”

Moodie-Mills went on to say the “base” of the Democratic Party is “people of color” and not those at “the top” of their party’s pyramid, presumably meaning white people.

It’s worth noting the inverse of Moodie-Mills’s electoral strategy is Steve Sailer’s the “Sailer Strategy,” which is for Republicans to aggressively go after white voters.

Incidentally, Steve Sailer was pretty much blacklisted from the media as a result of such theories whereas Moodie-Mills can advocate the same in reverse with the establishment media’s full backing.

Really makes you think.

HATE HOAX: Black College Lacrosse Player Scrawled N-Word, KKK, Swastika Targeting Himself

By Chris Menahan

Fynn Ajani Arthur, 21, was arrested on Thursday for allegedly scrawling “KKK,” swastikas and “I’m gonna kill all n****rs” across Goucher College campus.

Arthur reportedly wrote the numbers of several dorm rooms along with his threats, one of which was his own.

The Daily Mail:

A black college lacrosse player has been arrested in connection with two incidents of racist graffiti found in a dorm on the Goucher College campus in Maryland.

Fynn Ajani Arthur, a 21-year-old from Brunswick, Maine, was charged with two counts of malicious destruction of property on Thursday night in Baltimore County.

His arrest came after graffiti aimed at black and Latino students was found on the second floor of a campus dorm, one floor above where similar graffiti had been found on November 14, Goucher College administrators said in a statement.

Both incidents that shook the Towson campus involved backward swastikas and targeted specific individuals, according to the statement.

Thursday’s graffiti depicted swastikas, the letters ‘KKK’ and appeared to include the last names of four black students, including Arthur. The previous graffiti reportedly said all ‘n*****s’ on campus would be killed.

Here’s some coverage from Twitter after the incident occurred:

ALL ‘SNL’ WANTS FOR CHRISTMAS IS FOR MUELLER TO ARREST TRUMP, ‘ONLY OTHER OPTION IS A COUP’

All ‘SNL’ Wants for Christmas Is for Mueller to Arrest Trump, ‘Only Other Option Is a Coup’

‘I don’t need a lot for Christmas. Just a perfect magic spell that solves the whole world’s problems and put the white guy in a cell,’ sings cast

Newsbusters – DECEMBER 2, 2018

In what was supposedly a “comedy” act to close out the latest episode of NBC’s Saturday Night Live, the female cast members got together to sing their rendition of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You”.

But the person they had their eye on was Special Counsel Robert Mueller, or, at least a report that would put Trump in jail. Because, according to the SNL cast, “the only other option is a coup. Straight Africa.”

Aside from comedian Leslie Jones saying she was going to bake “rophies into cookies because this year, I’m going to get [Santa]” (What happened to #MeToo?), the song was comprised of the deranged ramblings of loony liberals.

“This needs to be done by Christmas. I need a fricking ounce of cheer. I just really want my life back. Oh my god, it’s been two years,” the group sang, switching back and forth between them.

Getting more vindictive, they continued, saying: “I don’t need a full impeachment. But we just need a little fun. Please tell us we aren’t crazy. At least indict his oldest son.” “Please tell us we aren’t crazy” … Um, you’re singing a song to a special counsel to indict and lock up a sitting U.S. president. Sorry to break it to you, but you’re already there.

As they went, the group sang about how they were tired of getting “tiny nibbles” and wanted a “true entrée”, possibly talking about the many indictments not connected directly to Trump or collusion. “You better prove that Trump colluded. Or that he kidnapped JonBenet.” And they want to be told they’re not crazy.

Despite the recent cases of politically motivated violence, including last year’s mass assassination attempt of GOP lawmakers at a Congressional baseball practice, the SNL cast seemed to “joke” about overthrowing Trump in a bloody African-style coup: “We don’t need a long-ass doc, just a single page that stocks. Mueller, please come through because the only other option is a coup. Straight Africa.”

“Oh, I got the whole case laid out on my kitchen floor. And if you can’t lock Trump up, at least prove he’s super poor,” they huffed.

As they were nearing the end of the song (and the show), the women made their final plea to Mueller to finish the investigation soon:

Oh, I don’t need a lot for Christmas. Just a perfect magic spell that solves the whole world’s problems and put the white guy in a cell. I just want to sleep at night. Please make sure your case is tight. And make our wish come true. Because, Mueller, all we want for Christmas is you.

Then Kate McKinnon admitted that “unless the report has like zero new information, because then we would rather it never come out.” “Yeah, yeah, because it is our last shred of hope and I’ve already drunk all the wine,” Cecily Strong exclaimed.

This song was from the same show that wept and sang “Hallelujah” when Hillary Clinton lost to Trump. The argument can be made that this Christmas song was funny, but probably not in the way the cast and the writers anticipated. Their attempt to attack Trump wasn’t funny, but it was pathetic. Them showing off their Trump Derangement Syndrome was hysterical.

NBC’s Saturday Night Live
December 2, 2018
12:53:56 a.m. Eastern

VOICEOVER: And now a holiday message from the women of SNL.

CECILY STRONG: You know Christmas is right around the corner.

KATE MCKINNON: And people are making lists of what they want from Santa.

LESLIE JONES: And this year, I’m baking rophies into cookies because this year, I’m going to get him.

AIDY BRYANT: We have so much to be thankful for: friends, family.

MCKINNON: And good things money can’t buy.

STRONG: So this year.

SONG LYRICS: I don’t want a lot for Christmas. There is just one thing I need. I don’t care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree. I just want a simple thing and the joy that it will bring. The report is finally due. Mueller, all I want for Christmas is you.

You, baby. This needs to be done by Christmas. I need a fricking ounce of cheer. I just really want my life back. Oh, my god it’s been two years.

I don’t need a full impeachment. But we just need a little fun. Please tell us we aren’t crazy. At least indict his oldest son. I’m sick of breaking news. And Giuliani’s interviews. Our balls are fully blue. Mueller, all I want for Christmas is you. Hurry baby.

We are sick of tiny nibbles. We need us a true entrée. You better prove that Trump colluded. And that he kidnapped JonBenet. We won’t ask for much this Christmas, but at least throw us a bone. Tell us what the hell is happening and who the F is Roger Stone.

We don’t need a long-ass doc, just a single page that stocks. Mueller, please come through because the only other option is a coup. Straight Africa.

Oh, I got the whole case laid out on my kitchen floor. And if you can’t lock Trump up, least prove he’s super poor. Can all the crooks be gone? Remember Alex Van Der Zwan.

STRONG: Mueller won’t you bring us a sense of normalcy where everything doesn’t feel so completely upside down and out of control, because I can’t take anymore anxiety medication! They won’t let me!

What about Ivanka’s e-mails?!

JONES: Girl, this song ain’t about that, baby.

STRONG: I know, sorry about that.

SONG LYRICS: Oh, I don’t need a lot for Christmas. Just a perfect magic spell that solves the whole world’s problems and put the white guy in a cell. I just want to sleep at night. Please make sure your case is tight. And make our wish come true. Because, Mueller, all we want for Christmas is you.

MCKINNON: Unless– Unless the report has like zero new information, because then we would rather it never come out.

STRONG: Yeah, yeah, because it is our last shred of hope and I’ve already drunk all the wine.

JONES: And if it is, I would like to catch Bigfoot.

MCKINNON: I think you mean Santa.

JONES: Man, I can’t keep up with all of these dudes.

CAST: Merry Christmas everybody!
