It’s "Very Difficult" for Disney to do business with a state that passed a pro-life law. Funny I’ve never heard Bob Iger say it’s "Very Difficult" to do business with China despite the fact they’ve thrown a million people into re-education camps recently. hollywoodreporter.com/news/disney-ma…
I wonder if it’s "Very Difficult" for Bob Iger & Disney to do business with all of the pro-life people who attend their parks, resorts and movies everyday? Oh no just states with the audacity to protect unborn lives. What a bunch of virtue signaling hacks.
Stuff like this should wake up one of the conservative billionaires and inspire them to invest in a film studio that’ll fill a major hole in the market. Companies like Disney hate the GOP. Time to create alternatives but it’s gonna take major investment. hollywoodreporter.com/news/disney-ma…

THREAD ON GUN CONTROL:

The #GunControlNow crowd is mostly made up of good, very empathetic people who know very little about guns. I don’t blame them for being afraid when they see so many innocent people dying from mass shootings.
Seeing people die in your country from senseless mass shootings is maddening. What they don’t understand is it’s maddening to us too. The disconnect is how we understand the situation we’re in and how we can get closer to ending it.

Let’s recap some facts...
Just under 50% of all civilian owned guns in the world are owned in the US. We have 400+ million guns owned just by civilians in the US, a ban or confiscation will NEVER happen. It would literally be the 2nd civil war. Now let’s review some history.

Serious question: Is Nancy Pelosi drunk?
It appears Speaker Pelosi does enjoy a drink or two (thousand).
Amazing. I called out Pelosi’s speech issues with REAL UNEDITED videos & instead of media asking why she’s slurring, twitching & forgetting words @washingtonpost runs propaganda based on satire videos of her slurring at a different event to confuse people. wapo.st/30E7KfH

Update on @ladyinmedicine’s account: She finally received a notice today saying that she was found to be violating TOS by participating in targeted abuse. There’s no evidence attached or specific tweet cited. Let me tell you about her & tell you why Twitter’s acting like tyrants.
Followers of @ladyinmedicine know that she was born in Egypt. Her family fled to seek opportunities free of persecution for being Coptic Christians. Later they returned to find more discrimination. She was lucky to get into Canada and she’s felt privileged ever since, to be free.
Now in Canada she felt a duty to speak up for Coptic Christians who still living in oppressive places or are killed for their faith. For 10 years she used social media to tell stories the media ignores too often. People like @ladyinmedicine are their voice, not the media.

Twitter seems to be banning or suspending accounts belonging to critics of the Chinese government. It started yesterday May 31th. Here is one report - I noticed a sudden loss of followers yesterday, I checked, it was mainly China critics. Twitter❤️🇨🇳 Amazing! @mouse @1GigiSims
This is happening as an effort to silence #China critics ahead of the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre, which is next Tuesday. Twitter is helping China do its dirty work to silence the legitimate opposition. Twitter has hit a new all time low! 👎👎👎
One other possibility that can't be discounted is that the #Chinese government is hacking into Twitter and is deleting the accounts of Chinese critics. I did hear reports in the past, that Chinese hackers were able to get into Twitter & do that.

Great piece from @WilliamCraddick that I somehow missed. @DisobedientNews “reported in 2017 that [#China’s] 14K triad was working with local affiliates on the American West Coast to push out pro-#Taiwan’ese criminal interests and consolidate control.”
… I‘ve separately ID’d resellers of encrypted communications equipment from #China who are operating in #Mexico. I believe these resellers are likely selling these devices to the cartels. (That’s all I’ll say.) It makes sense since the “product” — #fentanyl — is #MadeInChina…
… so would it surprise anybody if #China was arming #Mexico’s cartels? That assumption should probably be baked-in to our analyses. And let’s not forget that time the very Chinese (but #London-based) #HongKong #Shanghai Banking Corp. — #HSBC — laundered billion$ for the cartels.

.@Jack staring at his phone with a sloppy beard, no tie, and tweeting during a US Senate Intelligence Hearing encapsulates Silicon Valley's detachment with the rest of the world.
The difference between Sandberg and Dorsey is that Jack looks like he wandered in from a coffee shop in Union Station. Sandberg seems like she's spent the last few weeks preparing with an army of lawyers.
Mark Warner asks Sandberg if people should have a right to know what data Facebook collects. Naturally Sandberg says "privacy control," and "transparency" "innovation" and "let's work on that!"

This is why Facebook is evil.
