  The Web of Players Trying to Silence Truth
Posted by: ABNARTY - 02-18-2021, 03:53 AM - Forum: General News and Events - Replies (7)

I knew it was organized but not this organized. 

LINK

A longer article but here are some important bullet points:

- The press historically exposed corruption to some degree. Today, they have been subverted by advertising dollars. They media will not jeopardize their bottom line. 

- The strategies used by Monsanto and Beyer in the past are now being used by Big Tech and Big Pharma. These efforts are run by "communication groups".

- Publicis Groupe is one of the worlds largest of these PR firms. 

- Publicis has various partnerships with government agencies, NGO's, and is a member of the World Economic Forum. Think "Great Reset" and "Pandemic". 

- Publicis donated a large amount of start up capital to News Guard. News Guard is supposedly the arbiter of truth in news and information. I am guessing "not". 

All the connections get a bit depressing. What you gets thrown at you in the media and elsewhere is not truth. It is an information campaign designed to keep you uninformed and manipulated. That's not just tin foil hat stuff, it's real. Of course most of us knew it but didn't know the extent.

take our poll - story continues below
  • POLL: Will Republican Senators vote to impeach Trump and ban him from running in 2024? 
One of the most legendary firearms companies in American history is now a subsidiary of a Czech Republic-based corporation.
Česká Zbrojovka Group SE has acquired Colt for $220 million, acquiring a 100% holding of the American gunsmith. Colt is famed as one of the first major manufacturers of AR-15 and M-16 rifles, with the company equipping military service members in Vietnam and subsequent wars. Vietnam veterans in large part were among the first Americans to buy AR-15 rifles as civilians, having become familiar with the family of rifles in the southeast Asia conflict.
Colt had declined in prominence in the American firearms market for one primary reason- they stopped making AR-15s. Colt AR-15’s remain some of the most highly sought rifles by American gun collectors, but the company ceased manufacturing new ones for civilians in 2019, making them for law enforcement and the military only. Many had speculated that Colt made the decision in response to criticism from the gun control lobby.
Trending: [url=https://bigleaguepolitics.com/parlers-new-hosting-provider-bans-all-hateful-material-setting-the-stage-for-massive-censorship/]Parler’s New Hosting Provider Bans All ‘Hateful Material’, Setting the Stage for Massive Censorship

Colt still owns the specific “AR-15” designation patent, having originally purchased the rights to manufacture the rifles from Armalite. AR-15 rifles have since become America’s semiautomatic civillian rifle of choice, and are available in a wide variety of configurations.
Colt’s decision to stop producing their most popular firearms may have been immensely premature, as well. Sales of AR-style rifles have exploded in 2020 following the Chinese coronavirus epidemic, with rifles consistently sold out at major retailers and online gun stores.
CZ expects to close the deal giving it full ownership of Colt in the second quarter of 2021. The move transfers ownership of a storied American gun manufacturer- which has produced and sold guns since 1836- to a European parent company, and may even have some national security implications.
If you’re in lawful commerce of firearms, it’s probably not a good idea to allow pressure from Democrats and haters of gun rights to dictate your business strategy.

A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo.  And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first.  This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.

In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells.  Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells.  But, naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first.  In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine.  That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers!”

The green dots on this Google Earth map represent radio stations all over the world.
Click on any one of the dots and you will immediately hear that station with very good reception. There are multiple stations for many cities
For example, halfway up Ireland's east coast, there is a station playing Irish pub music.

On the west coast of Greenland in the city of Nuuk, there are 3 radio stations
Any of you who are multi-lingual will certainly enjoy

  Democrats Hire Ex-Gang Member to Lead Efforts in Protecting Slim House Majority
Posted by: Michigan Swamp Buck - 02-15-2021, 06:28 PM - Forum: Breaking News - Replies (7)

Quote:The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) tapped Dyjuan Tatro, the former “triggerman” for Albany’s Original Gangsta Killers, or OGK, street gang to help lead efforts in protecting House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) slim majority in the House.
The DCCC, led by chairman Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY), hired Tatro, a former New York gang member, to serve as a senior adviser for “diversity and inclusion.” He served time for “shooting two rival gang members in 2006” and was also convicted in 2011, serving six years for racketeering conspiracy, according to the New York Post.
According to the outlet, Tatro “confessed to the shootings, and to a ‘razor slashing’ of another victim in 2002 as well as to dealing drugs,” making around $12,000 per month doing so.
The DCCC has vehemently defended its decision to hire him, praising him for turning his life around. He, notably, appeared in the 2019 documentary series College Behind Bars, where inmates “seek college degrees – and a chance at redemption – while incarcerated.” He earned his bachelor’s degree through the program.

breitbart.com

A perfectly criminal hire of a perfect criminal for the position of helping to protecting a bunch of criminals.

What I wonder is, will they expunge his records or grant clemency of some kind so he can carry a piece while pursuing his new duties? Or will they merely ignore his felons and past criminal behavior and let him carry a concealed weapon?
