Democrats Ignore The First Amendment With Censorship Demand Letter To X
It’s not about antisemitism or terrorism. Israel is losing the information war. It’s why they want to ban TikTok, as well.

We’ve noted many times how the GOP’s obsession with TikTok is stupid, performative, and utterly hollow. For example, the party desperately wants to ban TikTok for “privacy reasons,” yet consistently opposes passing privacy laws, or regulating data brokers that traffic in far more data — at a far greater international scale — than TikTok executives could ever dream of.

Osama Bin Laden’s ‘Letter to America’ goes viral
TikTok users shared their diverse reactions, with one user expressing bewilderment, stating, “It’s wild, and everyone should read it,” while another admitted to experiencing an “existential crisis” after reading the document, claiming it changed her entire viewpoint on life.
“I will never look at life the same, I will never look at this country (USA) the same. If you have read it, let me know if you are going through an existential crisis. Because in the last 20 minutes, my entire viewpoint of the entire life I have believed and lived has changed,” wrote one user.
Wait until they see this!?

ADL Director sounds alarm over lack of support for Israel among ‘Gen Z’
Greenblatt’s action plan to combat what he calls anti-Jewish “disinformation” has taken many forms but, so far, appears to focus primarily on the suppression of free speech on social media. In a joint press call on Nov 8th, Greenblatt joined several US politicians to gameplan a way to “combat terrorists and disinformation” on “China-owned” TikTok. During the call, U.S. Representatives Josh Gottheimer, and Don Bacon formally announced the “Stopping Terrorists Online Presence and Holding Accountable Tech Entities Act,” known as the STOP HATE Act.
The legislation seeks to impose a fine of $5 million a day for any tech company that fails to adequately “fight disinformation” or refuses to submit lists of terms of service violations made by users. It also hopes to force TikTok to register as a foreign agent and clamp down on Al Jazeera for its reporting of humanitarian issues in Gaza.

In March, a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for police documents revealed that Florida-based law enforcement was taking direction and colluding with the ADL on how to curb First Amendment-protected activities. The communications between the department’s police chief and Florida ADL Director, Yael Hirschfeld, appeared to scold police brass for releasing prominent influencer Jon “Handsome Truth” Minadeo.

So, it’s very ironic that, when Israel, one of the most powerful militaries in the world, and definitely a regional super power, puts Anti-Drone Grenade Cages on their Merkava IV Tanks, I don’t see anybody on Twitter laughing.. And yet, the Israeli Armor still gets damaged, by tiny home-made quadrocopter drones.
So, why isn’t anyone from NAFO calling Israel “Cope Cages”? Israel is failing with Tanks against a much weaker opponent than Russian Tanks did in the first initial invasion wave in February 2022, so where’s the laughter on X, Reddit, and Twitter? Because it’s Anti-Russian BIAS for the SAKE of Anti-Russian Bias…
