People are reporting about Facebook’s “oversight board” as if it’s the Office of Legal Counsel at the DOJ which it turns out is as driven by bias emotions/agendas as anything else in life. None of these things are run by righteousness or integrity.
Why does FB even act that they have a system of rules? They do what they wish just because they could.

Did anyone think that FB as a company will now open itself to more slamming from Lefties? (Lefties who violate the same supposed rules that causes non-Libs to be banned.)
There is no legit “FB Oversight Board.” FB as a company has an executive team and a board who call the shots and won׳t give up the direction of its company to a truly independent committee. Besides, oversight members are hacks who know what to do. You think they have Trump Fans?
When Trump supporters were suspended and banned from social media companies back in 15 and 16, he did not do much about it. He maybe sent a tweet here and there. That’s it. The suspensions became more brazen and he still didn’t do much. Then they came for him too.

Tony Podesta is @johnpodesta’s brother. He was a big-shot lobbyist who closed his firm when Manafort was clipped by Mueller.

Why?

They both worked together on Ukraine items; Tony was a vehicle for Manafort. He could have been charged. He wasn’t. He instead closed shop.
John was one of ten board members at Joule. 3 members were Russians who served there as result of the Putin-funded Rusnano having investing in the firm; which collapsed when Hillary’s campaign ended in 2016.

My point?

Tony and John could have possibly been charged with FARA.
The Foreign Agent Registrarion Act requires operatives to register when they get paid to lobby foreign government interests. People rarely get charged with this and many people rushed to register after Manafort’s case.

This is the given investigation against @RudyGiuliani. FARA.

Principled Conservatives like to slam “their own side” due to principles.

But if they are driven by principle, how do they have a political side?

If and since they don’t have a side due to principles, why do they attack the side closer aligned with their policy principles?
Principled Cons reserve their harshest criticism for politicians who take the most media heat which is mostly against Republicans.

Odd because those Cons like to whine about media power yet they follow along. They claim to be driven by principle yet they get influenced by media.
Principled Cons (PCs) claim to be conservatice on policy and therefore aligned with the GOP which is more right-leaning than Democrats. Yet, these PCs enable Democrats to drive Republicans from office and to implement anti-conservative policy. What is principle in this?

Has Durham executed even one search warrant? I’m asking because Mueller in half the time of Durham had already locked up indictments and plea deals.

What a joke that Durham thing was all along; as I have tweeted from the get go.
The grand juries and raids against people on the Trump side (over issues that are usually not prosecuted and/or done without raids), show you that the email and IRS abuse investigations were jokes. Mueller (FBI head until late 2013) and Comey held the line for the Obama Admin.
Mueller figured out how to charge Trump’s Manafort’s Rick Gates’ Van Der Zwan for lying about a legal meeting unrelated to collusion. That’s a prosecution six degrees of separation from Trump Colluding.

Michel Cohen’s father-in-law faced charges so Cohen pled guilty.

Dr. Fauci suggests kids will be vaccinated for their own risk of infection; he doesn’t mention to protect adults.

266 out of 551,728 Coronavirus deaths in the US are children under the age of 18.

41,069 children under 18 died from all causes since the start of the pandemic.
Many who opine about vaccines are clueless, so their default responses is to yell “anti-vaxx” as @HaMeturgeman noted. But if you are informed pls address: Fauci suggested that Covid vaccines for kids R to protect them (he didn’t say herd). Considering the data, why is it needed?
This is Fauci’s latest words on Coronavirus vaccines for kids of all ages and the reason why they need it. When you listen to it, please note the data above and please try to address it like an informed adult; not a mindless zombie repeating buzzwords. Go:

“There is no indication that these penalties promoted compliance with departure obligations,” DHS Secretary Mayorkas said in a statement. “We can enforce our immigration laws without resorting to ineffective and unnecessary punitive measures.”

Pity he is not at the IRS.
.@SecMayorkas says he stopped imposing fines of $500 per day on illegal immigrants who stay here since it does not help.

Sure not — If you don’t go after it!

If the IRS imposed fines for non/late filers without threat of seizing bank accounts, those fines would also not work.
I really don’t get @SecMayorkas’s given reason for stopping to impose fines on those who ignore orders to leave. Perhaps his thinking can be applied to parking tickets and taxes too. If the thinking works for Guatemalans, then why not on Americans?

Those who oppose the officer’s action are refusing to show you this video and pretend that what we see here didn’t happen because they know that the officer with great marksmanship and speed-thinking saved someone’s life with not even a second to spare. Whoa!
The assailant with the knife had already pushed back the would-be victim a few feet pinning her against the car.

This was no “knife fight” as @ValerieJarrett lied yesterday.

The victim took no threatening stance in the seconds before the stabbing that the skilled-Cop stopped.
If not for propaganda, the officer would be paraded as a hero for having the speed and skill to stop a violent crime mid-stream with a quarter of a second time to decide and without bullets flying onto others.

LOOK AT THE VIDEO and tell me it ain’t so, you liars and chickens!
