Organizational Hubris at the FBI
By James Davidson, Former FBI Agent & President
of ProtectTheFBI.org
Several journalists recently made the case that an FBI culture
characterized by hubris precipitated the FBI's improperly predicated
investigation into the Trump campaign. They also argued that this hubris
extends well beyond the 7th floor of the J. Edgar Hoover building and permeates
the entire organization. We prefer to wait for the Inspector
General's soon-to-be-released report before concluding whether the
investigation was properly predicated. Protect the FBI also believes
journalists often exaggerate the nature and extent of the FBI's cultural
hubris. [more...]
Hollywood's Human Rights Duplicity
By James Hirsen
After a law was passed in Georgia to save the lives of pre-born
babies with detectable heartbeats, many in Hollywood grabbed their leftist
playbooks and began clamoring for a boycott of the state. Netflix, Disney, and
a smattering of Left Coast companies threatened to pull production away from
Georgia if the implementation of the law began to take effect. Despite the high
degree of virtue signaling that has taken place regarding the issue, Hollywood
continues to conduct business with foreign governments that hold abysmal human
rights records. [more...]
Facebook Value Goes Crypto
By Lowell Ponte
18 months ago, social network giant Facebook announced
that it was banning all ads for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as
"frequently associated with misleading or deceptive promotional practices."
But this week, Facebook will issue formal notice of its own cryptocurrency
called Libra, to be launched early next year. Facebook has more than a dozen partners
in this new money, including Visa and MasterCard, two companies Libra
could undercut with lower prices for transactions. Libra is a
"stablecoin," not a speculative gamble whose value shoots up and down
like Bitcoin. Its value will be "pegged" to a "basket of
currencies," to conservative stocks, and perhaps even to a fraction of gold.
Mark Zuckerberg is already distrusted for violating the privacy of customers, and
for censoring conservatives for their views. How will we like
Zuckerberg when he also becomes head of one of the world's largest central
banks - which, with 2.4 billion Facebook customers, is what the Libra
consortium will be? It could become a threat to the future of the U.S. Dollar. [more...]
Tyranny Masquerading as Tolerance
By David Horowitz
Through a perverse but also inevitable twist to Identity
Politics, the most aggressively bigoted and hate-filled censors seeking to
suppress and marginalize individuals whom they regard as “other” are the very
movements organized as advocates for “victim” minorities. The haters include
white supremacist fringe movements who think that through attacks on Jews and
Blacks they are actually defending whites (who are indeed targeted by so-called
social justice warriors. But the most prominent and far more numerous hate
groups are the social justice warriors themselves - Black Lives Matter, the
misnamed Human Rights Campaign and the equally misnamed Gay and Lesbian
Alliance Against Defamation, an organization that is well-practiced in the art
of defamation against what it refers to as “oppressor” groups. [more...]
What is George Will Rooting For?
By Karen Kataline
Yesterday, Washington Post columnist George Will
predicted the eventual presidential nominee of the Democratic Party would beat
President Trump in 2020. George Will detests the President so much that
in his recent op-ed, “To beat Trump, Dems must practice a politics of
modesty,” he refers to him as “today’s incumbent.” One wonders if he referred
to President Trump’s predecessor the same way. Will tells Democrats they can
beat “today’s incumbent” by employing the “politics of “modesty.” Here’s a
question for George: How is it modest to disguise one’s immense hubris as
humility just so you can win? [more...]
Never-Trumpers Killed CNN
Brent Bozell, founder of the Media Research
Center, outlines a very specific message in his new book, Unmasked: Big Media’s War Against
Trump: The media’s anti-Trump mindset is putting them
out of business. “Can they regain their credibility? I think the
answer’s no,” Bozell explained. “You’ve got to have other voices.” Can
CNN, MSNBC and the rest of the legacy media ever gain back the public’s trust?
