[Breitbart] A spokesman for UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has demanded that Elon Musk keeps Twitter "responsible" through content censorship.
Authorities in the United Kingdom are demanding that Twitter follows the country’s censorship laws when it comes under the control of its new owner, Elon Musk.
Musk, who has self-identified as a "free speech absolutist", has said that his aims are to increase the transparency of the platform he acquired for around $44 billion, while also noting that "free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy".
However, while some have celebrated the forthcoming Silicon Valley regime change, authorities in Britain appear to be afraid that the takeover may get in the way of their forthcoming programme of enhanced online censorship.
"Regardless of ownership, all social media platforms must be responsible," The Times reports a spokesman for Prime Minister Boris Johnson as saying regarding the purchase.
"That includes protecting users from harm on their sites," the spokesman continued. "It is too early to say what — if any — changes will be made to how Twitter operates." We will see the establishment pull out all the stops to keep their message, and no one else's, in front of everyone's eyeballs

How about censoring access in the UK and including a large warning that it's in compliance with mandatory rules of their own government, not Twitter.

Remember, UK is the country that banned Michael Savage and Geert Wilders. Next they'll be telling Musk that he is forbidden from entering their country as well. Trying to keep the lid on a boiling pot can be dangerous.

[NYPOST] Harvard University is setting aside $100 million for an endowment fund and other measures to close the educational, social and economic gaps that are legacies of slavery and racism, according to an email the university’s president sent to all students, faculty and staff on Tuesday.
The email from Harvard President Lawrence Bacow included a link to a 100-page report by his university’s 14-member Committee on Harvard and the Legacy of Slavery. The panel was chaired by Tomiko Brown-Nagin, a legal historian and constitutional law expert who is dean of Harvard’s interdisciplinary Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study. The email and the report were released to Rooters.
The move comes amid a wider conversation about redressing the impacts of centuries of slavery, discrimination and racism. Some people have called for financial or other reparations.
The report laid out a history of slaves toiling on the campus and of the university benefiting from the slave trade and industries linked to slavery after slavery was outlawed in Massachusetts in 1783 — 147 years after Harvard’s founding. The report also documents Harvard excluding Black students and its scholars advocating racism.
While Harvard had notable figures among abolitionists and in the civil rights movement, the report said, "the nation’s oldest institution of higher education ... helped to perpetuate the era’s racial oppression and exploitation."

I got a note from Harvard's president about this yesterday. I replied that I am appalled at the racism of Harvard and would certainly not consider giving any money at all to this racist, evil institution.

[MAIL] Joe Biden agreed to pay son Hunter's legal fees for his deal with a Chinese government-controlled company, emails reveal.
The revelation ties the president even closer to Hunter's overseas business dealings – and makes his previous claims that he never discussed them with his son, even less plausible.
Joe was able to pay the bills after earning millions of dollars through his and his wife's companies after he left office as vice president.
Some of the wave of cash came from their book deals and speaking engagements.
But the president's financial filings reveal that he declared almost $7million more income on his tax returns than he did on his government transparency reports, an analysis by DailyMail.com of the president's financial records shows.
Some of that difference can be accounted for with salaries earned by First Lady Jill Biden and other sums not required on his reports – but still leaves $5.2million earned by Joe's company and not listed on his transparency reports.
The 'missing millions' – combined with emails on Hunter's abandoned laptop suggesting Joe would have a 10% share in Hunter's blockbuster deal with the Chinese – raise a troubling question: did Joe Biden receive money from the foreign venture?

whoever the next pres is (s)he should move the central gov't to the center of the U.S., say kansas city or topeka. Further, legislators should stay at home and be provided with secure lines to vote 'in-absentia' DC should become a museum.

Yes. If they are so terrified of "insurrection," they should de-centralize as quickly as possible. But when you go from what goes on there now to Zoom orgies, all you get is Jeffrey Toobin, which is really sad...

My guess is there will be a growing flood of pardons and commutations, both as an income source and to cloak the upcoming spate of political criminals/family members who need to bail before the next election.
Most interestingly will be the accelerated and prompted criminal investigation and charging of the immediate Biden family (Jim and Hunter) to force full discovery of the case against them, and by extension, the Presidents criminal exposure as an accomplice. Once that discovery process is fully complete, expect pardons under some fig leaf explanation and the Jojo defense teams building an ironclad story of incompetent innocence and false explanations, and massive files deletions before exiting the White House.

And the IRS doesn't give a damn that Slow Joe may be arrears in his taxes. Once again we have taxation without representation. That makes us slaves.
[NATIONALREVIEW] Attorney General Merrick Garland on Tuesday said there will “not be interference of any political or improper kind” in the Justice Department’s investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings.
Senator Bill Hagerty (R., Tenn.) questioned the attorney general about the investigation into President Biden’s son during a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, asking whether Garland himself had been briefed on the investigation.
Garland replied that the probe is being led by David Weiss, the U.S. attorney in Wilmington, Delaware who was appointed by former President Donald Trump.
“I’m aware of that, but he reports to you,” Hagerty said.
“He is supervising the investigation and I’m not at liberty to talk about internal Justice Department deliberations, but he is in charge of that investigation,” Garland replied. “There will not be interference of any political or improper kind.”

[JUSTTHENEWS] Georgia Sherlocks have signaled their focus in a wide-ranging investigation into alleged illegal ballot trafficking during the 2020 election with subpoenas that target the possible source of funding for such an operation and any eyewitness participants.
The four subpoenas obtained Monday by Just the News through an open records request show the State Elections Board and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger want the identity of any suspected participants in ballot harvesting, including a whistleblower identified only as John Doe who an election watchdog claims admitted to gathering ballots for cash.
The document demands were delivered late last week to the election integrity watchdog True the Vote, its founder Catherine Engelbrecht, and its researchers from a company called OPSEC Group LLC. They sought evidence that backs up the group's complaint last November alleging that as many as 242 people illegally gathered third-party ballots during the battleground state's November 2020 election and subsequent U.S. Senate races.
The subpoenas ask for "the identity and contact information of the several individuals regarding personal knowledge, methods, and organizations involved in ballot trafficking in Georgia referenced in the Complaint and any recordings, transcripts, summaries, testimony, statements, witness interviews, notes or other documents describing what those individuals said."

The only interest that the DOJ would have is in stopping the investigation.
Of course it doesn't really matter, because nothing is going to undo the damage this stolen election has caused.

We here in Ga. just want the OVERDUE Ruling and Court hearing to find the truth.
When found guilty of massive voter fraud, then those involved and those who benefited should be placed in Prison for Civil Rights violations and have their citizenship status revoked for Treason.

Too late to overturn the results of the election but we still want the perps in jail so they won't do it again.

Voter fraud is treason and those involved should be executed. In addition to camera's, states should post guards/snipers and if they see you put in more than one ballot *BANG, treason ended. Then track down whoever hired them.
[AlAhram] President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Sleazy Dem machine politician, paterfamilias of the Biden Crime Family, the guy who bungled Afghanistan... has granted the first three pardons of his term, providing clemency to a Kennedy-era Secret Service agent convicted of federal bribery charges that he tried to sell a copy of an agency file and to two people who were convicted on drug-related charges but went on to become pillars in their communities.
The Democratic president also commuted the sentences of 75 others for nonviolent mostly peaceful, drug-related convictions. The White House announced the clemencies Tuesday as it launched a series of job training and reentry programs for those in prison or recently released.

In case you were wondering... On May 12, 1964, Bolden was accused of attempting to sell a government file to Joseph Spagnoli Jr. in exchange for $50,000.[7] The file was evidence for a case in which Spagnoli was named as the head of a counterfeiting ring.
[KEYC] According to reports, Minneapolis experienced a 537% increase in carjacking between 2019 and 2020.
Monday afternoon, Sen. Amy Klobuchar Senatrix from Minnesota, candidate for the Dem presidential 2020 nomination. You can tell the kind of husband a boy will make by the way he treats his mother. You can tell the kind of leader a politician will make by the way he treats his staff. Klobuchar is reportedly overbearing, snide, and dictatorial with her people. She see this as merely getting the best from them. Her name spelled backward in the Russian alphabet would be "Rachubolk," which sounds pretty daggone suspicious... (D-Minn.) held a roundtable with six police chiefs from across Minnesota to emphasize the need to address the spike in carjackings and other crimes.
The police chiefs shared their experiences. Many of them discussed the topic of mental health and the need for more resources to address mental health crisis in the community.
"Something I personally would like to see is not sending broken people back into the streets. When someone is committing crime and continuously getting out and being let back in the community to continue to victimize people. That is something we could use some assistance with," said Dr. Booker Hodges, Bloomington police chief.
Another topic discussed was the staffing issues that a lot of police departments are experiencing.
Klobuchar discussed the need to strengthen coordination between federal, state, and local law enforcement to address these crimes.

Defund the police, let bad guys out of jail and then wonder why there is a spike in crime. That's pure genius. No wonder she's the Democrat senator from Minnesota.
