  1. Trudeau and the EU today praising this partnership that will allow member EU state to fish in Canadian waters like they did with Britain through their secret trade agreements.
    This is part of the globalization agreements that have decimated our economies.

  2. My question is why didn’t the Senator from Texas and other “conservative” senators simply urge the audience to switch to free speech platforms like Gab.com and Parler.

  3. Add lying to Congress to the rap sheet that Jack is going down for after the election, assuming he doesn’t flee to Africa on election night.

  4. And Zuckerberg tried to play ignorance. If he doesn’t know what’s going on he better sell out and step down.

    1. Warren, it’s not going to happen. As George Carlin said “It’s a big club and you ain’t in it” Another day and same “sheite”

      On another note, and maybe I’m being too critical but Jack should consider going to Nancy’s SanFran hair shop and trim that mule’s tail hanging of his lower lip.

      1. Creepy is as creepy does (and looks). If I had that kind of money, I’d look like the second coming of Natalie Wood, not the unibomber lite.

  5. I deactivated my twatter account after seeing them hosting a Washpoo article stating, words to the effect, that the story behind the Biden laptop was Russian disinformation. A person can bear only so much. The account would have been deactivated years ago except that POTUS leveraged it against the media. So one doesn’t want to miss anything,

  6. No one has yet adequately explained exactly what law Twitter or Jack Dorsey is breaking.

    Soi-disant conservatives really, really don’t like it when their free shit gets taken away. Witness the vitriol over a supposedly conservative politician going McCarthy on a private company exercising their First and Fifth Amendment rights over property that they bought and built.

    You don’t have a right to use someone else’s computer for free. Period. You can decide otherwise, and you can clamor to your elected officials to enshrine that right in law – you know, just like the right to health care and education and a big screen TV – but I don’t think you’ll much care for the Unintended and Entirely Predictable Consequences.

    Remember when Kate was forced by law to put a masthead on her own blog because Kathy Shaidle said mean things about Richard Warman on it? And that’s just the parts of the settlement we know about. That’s what’s waiting for you if you get what you say you want. Actually, it won’t be, because no sane blog owner will allow comments if a single A Canadian/Santayana’s Ghost can land them in penury or prison with a single comment.

    So all the Small Dead Animalses, the Phantom Soapboxes, the Five Feet of Furies, the Blazing Cat furs will disable comments and the conservative Internet will disappear; the only place you’ll be allowed to post comments is on the huge, wealthy social media platforms that have the resources and the tech to pre-screen comments.

    It’s the world you guys wanted. Good luck with it.

    1. It’s not that they are breaking the law, it’s that the law was tailored for what they said they would be. They said “Draft the regulations with the understanding that we are a platform. We are not responsible for the posted content. We will only remove that which is illegal or objectionable to a decent society.”

      They broke that promise with the Orwellian approach that anyone who does not agree with them is not a decent person, while leaving up links of criminal threats against those with whom they disagreed. Remove the 230 protections, and let them be listed as co-conspirators for the riots and looting that is advertised on their platforms.

      If they are truly platforms then despite their history of buying up potential competitors (or breaking patents and bankrupting the people they have just robbed with legal actions) then I would be able to talk to people using Twitter while I was using Parler (in the style of the Ma Bell breakup).

      Please stop with the strawmen. You’ve shown no sign of understanding what we with whom you disagree think is proper in this case.

  7. Somebody should have told Jack Dorsey that Hallowe’en wasn’t until Saturday, so dressing up as Fyodor Dostoyevski was premature.
