Is Free Speech Under Attack in this Country?

Reported using nymag. So not original reporting and so often the original reports have been known lies.

It’s ok though. Keep slurping.

You're right to be skeptical. very poorly chosen one is not the sort of person who would try to shut down criticism like that. Doesn't pass the sniff test. The Saturday Night Live stuff also strikes me as a piece of fake news. Another example of the liberal media doing its dastardly deeds.

Hey man. If you want to continually listen to the collective media that has routinely lied about anything trump or trump adjacent then go right ahead. Free country.
 
Bill O suing because no one wants to hear him and DJT ramble on ad nauseum about what ever they rambled about for the past 5 years.

Not a good weekend for the free speechers,

....

Not a mention of the Capital arrests over voter rights. Rather than storm the offices and building gallows, they sang
they "persisted"
to resurrect a term

What's really awful is how people who work for him like McMaster, Tillerson, Mathis, Bolton and Milley also pile on with their terrible lies. Even Bill Barr turned on him. What scum!

Barr absolutely blew it. What his reasons were are his own but it will be clear that Barr failed at his job when the receipts come out.
 
Military-grade spyware licensed by an Israeli firm to governments for tracking terrorists and criminals was used in attempted and successful hacks of 37 smartphones belonging to journalists, human rights activists, business executives and two women close to murdered Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, according to an investigation by The Washington Post and 16 media partners.

The phones appeared on a list of more than 50,000 numbers that are concentrated in countries known to engage in surveillance of their citizens and also known to have been clients of the Israeli firm, NSO Group, a worldwide leader in the growing and largely unregulated private spyware industry, the investigation found.

The list does not identify who put the numbers on it, or why, and it is unknown how many of the phones were targeted or surveilled. But forensic analysis of the 37 smartphones shows that many display a tight correlation between time stamps associated with a number on the list and the initiation of surveillance, in some cases as brief as a few seconds.

The numbers on the list are unattributed, but reporters were able to identify more than 1,000 people spanning more than 50 countries through research and interviews on four continents: several Arab royal family members, at least 65 business executives, 85 human rights activists, 189 journalists, and more than 600 politicians and government officials — including cabinet ministers, diplomats, and military and security officers. The numbers of several heads of state and prime ministers also appeared on the list.

Among the journalists whose numbers appear on the list, which dates to 2016, are reporters working overseas for several leading news organizations, including a small number from CNN, the Associated Press, Voice of America, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg News, Le Monde in France, the Financial Times in London and Al Jazeera in Qatar.

The targeting of the 37 smartphones would appear to conflict with the stated purpose of NSO’s licensing of the Pegasus spyware, which the company says is intended only for use in surveilling terrorists and major criminals. The evidence extracted from these smartphones, revealed here for the first time, calls into question pledges by the Israeli company to police its clients for human rights abuses.

In lengthy responses, NSO called the investigation’s findings exaggerated and baseless. It also said it does not operate the spyware licensed to its clients and “has no insight” into their specific intelligence activities.

will be interesting to see where this leads

Reminds me of the time many years ago, when an intelligence agency contacted me to ask some questions about some phone conversations I had with a client in Saudi Arabia. Big Brother is always listening it seems.

While it's true they got their asses kicked, the important thing was they kneeled and showed the world they think their country is racist
 
Oh so brave

You stood for a national anthem

That never happens.

You’ll never go broke selling to the patriotic fetish crowd of the USA. They are the biggest sheep of them all
