Every major Conservative Organization should sign on to a leave Zucker campaign, with a coordinated drop-dead date, whereby every MAGA member and conservative patriot has left Facebook. Say, in 60 days from today, by April 1, 2022... April fools day would be an appropriate date. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:12pt;"><strong>Let's all call for the creation of a leave the Zucker campaign...</strong> designed to slash 'facebook' subscribers by more than half... by April 1, 2022. Then, move on to target Twitter for more of the same. Pres. Trump's MAGA website could lead the way and become the central site for coordinating the campaign. Pres. Trump COULD make it a priority for discussion and tracking its progress, during his assemblies; prominently posting a large Thermometer-type display, like those used in the United Way fundraisers, displaying Facebook's declining subscriber numbers. A goal to cut Zucker's subscribers in half by April 1st, 2022 could be possible. It is past time that the conservative patriot organizes to dramatically reduce the influence of the propaganda-ridden left-wing social media. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:12pt;"><strong>We need to put a punch behind our rhetoric...</strong> and Trump's website, his rallies, and public appearances could become a platform to dramatically impact FaceBook, Twitter, and the entire Marxist social media cabal. Once the 'Leave Zucker' campaign demonstrates it can dramatically impact the revenue of these left-wing sites, it can expand its resources and organizational skills to shut down or redirect the MSM and its coverage bias... one network at a time. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:12pt;"><strong>But and alas, that takes leadership, organization, and 'resourcing' by recognized personalities and groups..</strong>. not the whimsical dreams of some old man, who hopes his children, grandchildren, and neighbors, have a nation to call their own after the 2022 election cycle.</span></p></div>Trump's Silenced Majority – The Voiceless, Voteless, And Cancelled Governed No Longer Consenthttps://patriotcommandcenter.org/forum/trump-s-silenced-majority-the-voiceless-voteless-and-cancelled-go2021-01-13T00:20:50.000Z2021-01-13T00:20:50.000ZDaniel John Sobieskihttps://patriotcommandcenter.org/members/DanielJohnSobieski<div><p><strong>TRUMP’S SILELENCED MAJORITY – THE VOICELESS, VOTELESS, AND CANCELLED GOVERNED NO LONGER CONSENT</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong> By Daniel John Sobieski</strong></p><p><strong><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8417542662,RESIZE_584x{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}8417542662,RESIZE_584x{{/staticFileLink}}" width="506" alt="8417542662?profile=RESIZE_584x" /></a></strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The violent storming of the capitol cannot be condoned but it must be explained as so many posturing Trump critics and hater are unwilling to do. Just what do we expect to happen when 75 million Americans are told their votes don't matter and can stolen without consequence or concern, that their voices don't matter and can be silenced at will and that now they must be punished for supporting the candidate of their choice in a former free republic.</p><p>As I write this, Parler, the touted alternative to the Big Tech monopoly and oligarchy, has been knocked off the Internet by the politically connected Big Tech tyrants Amazon, Google, Facebook, and Twitter. Competition was the answer, they told us. They lied to us. Big Tech would and has squelched every competitor just as they have silenced, censored and fact-checked, the voices of millions banned from speaking on social media, as is their president, banned from connecting and communicating with their peers. Orwell’s “1984” was supposed to be a warning but for the likes of <a href="https://admin.americanthinker.com/articles/2018/11/twitters_jack_dorsey_lied_to_congress.html">Jack Dorsey, who has repeatedly lied to Congress</a>, and Mark Zuckerberg, who sees himself as the arbiter of truth, <a href="http://noisyroom.net/blog/2020/08/02/facebooks-dr-zuckerberg-censors-hydroxychloroquine-truth-and-risks-lives/">endangering our lives by censoring the China virus debate</a> and <a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2020/04/facebook_assists_dems_in_shutting_down_bill_of_rights.html">threatening our freedoms by supporting censorship and lockdowns</a>,it has become an instruction guide. One by one they are knocking us off social media, those who won’t submit to the increasingly mandated group think. They preach unity. They seek subservience.</p><p>Donald Trump was first elected because he heard and listened to and became the voice of the forgotten American. The Washington swamp, which he pledged to drain and which is now reaching flood stage, was not amused and rose up to destroy him and all who dared ro support him. His supporters were mocked as deplorable and irredeemable, bitter clingers clinging to their dangerous and bigoted religion, rubes in flyover country who were supposed to just shut up pay their taxes, and stream propaganda on Netflix. Many who now allegedly cherish a peaceful transfer of power sat silently or were complicit as the outgoing Obama administration spied on the incoming Trump administration and conspired to overturn it through phony charges of Russian collusion using a fake dossier paid for by his political opponents, the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton. They sat silent or were complicit in a phony impeachment over a Ukraine phone call even as the Ukraine corruption of the Bidens was ignored. Within hours of Trump’s 2016 election, the Washington Compost was headlining that his impeachment had already begun. Peaceful trasition? “Peaceful protestors” rioted during his inauguration, in one famous incident setting a limo ablaze that was owned by an immigrant small businessman. Now they want to impeach Trump again so he can't run again in 2024 this time for inciting a riot he did not incite.</p><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8417557276,RESIZE_584x{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}8417557276,RESIZE_584x{{/staticFileLink}}" width="416" alt="8417557276?profile=RESIZE_584x" /></a></p><p><a href="https://theothermccain.com/2021/01/09/no-trump-did-not-incite-violence/">As blogger Robert Stacy McCain observes</a></p><p><strong><a href="https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/matt-margolis/2021/01/08/breaking-trump-permanently-banned-from-twitter-n1325232">Twitter banned President Trump last night</a></strong><strong>, “due to the risk of further incitement of violence.” Note the word “further,” an implied assertion that on some previous occasion, Trump incited violence….</strong></p><p><strong>Ann Althouse — who, I remind you, is a professor of law at the University of Wisconsin — </strong><strong><a href="https://althouse.blogspot.com/2021/01/the-7-most-violence-inciting-statements.html">took the time to read the transcript of Trump’s hour-long speech Wednesday and found no such incitement</a></strong><strong>. It simply never happened, no matter how often the media say it happened….</strong></p><p><strong>The evident assumption by the anti-Trump media is that anything Trump says is bad and wrong, and that anytime something bad happens, Trump is to blame. But there were some 200,000 people in D.C. for the “Stop the Steal” rally, and only a small percentage of that crowd — perhaps 2,000 people — were involved in breaching the Capitol. If everybody heard the president’s “incitement,” why didn’t everyone storm the Capitol?</strong></p><p>Jordan Davidson at Da Fed has compiled a short, helpful list of <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2021/01/08/10-times-democrats-urged-violence-against-trump-and-his-supporters/">10 Times Democrats Urged Violence Against Trump And His Supporters</a>. </p><p>The “mostly peaceful” protests in Washington, D.C., as liberals described the year-long Antifa and BLM riots they cheered on on in Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis and other Democratic run cities, gave some the excuse to storm the capitol with tragic results. Like the Big Lie spread about President Donald J. Trump after Charlottesville that he said white supremacists were “fine people” another lie has sprung forth that he incited some of the 75 million Americans who were disenfranchised by a stolen election to riot. He did neither such thing.</p><p>Democrats and their wholly-owned media chant that by reciting allegedly false claims about election fraud, Trump incited his crowd to storm the capitol. Legal scholar and former Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz, who defended Trump during his first impeachment, says there is a big and constitutionally protected difference between advocacy and incitement to riot and that Trump did no such thing.. <a href="%E2%80%9CEverything%20he%20said%20was%20fully%20protected%20by%20the%20First%20Amendment%20and%20cannot%20be%20deemed%20an%20impeachable%20offense,%E2%80%9D%20he%20said.%20%E2%80%9CTo%20impeach%20him%20for%20a%20protected%20speech%20would%20violate%20both%20the%20First%20Amendment%20and%20the%20impeachment%20clause.%E2%80%9D">He would defend Trump again, said Dershowitz:</a></p><p><strong>“It would be my honor if asked to defend the constitution once again against unconstitutional attempts to weaponize impeachment for partisan purposes,” Dershowitz said.</strong></p><p><strong>Dershowitz said that what Trump said during the rally that preceded the storming of the Capitol was protected by the First Amendment and is, therefore, not an impeachable offense.</strong></p><p><strong>“Everything he said was fully protected by the First Amendment and cannot be deemed an impeachable offense,” he said. “To impeach him for a protected speech would violate both the First Amendment and the impeachment clause.”</strong></p><p><strong><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8417560867,RESIZE_584x{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}8417560867,RESIZE_584x{{/staticFileLink}}" width="506" alt="8417560867?profile=RESIZE_584x" /></a></strong></p><p>This is what Trump really said, after reciting a list of documented unconstitutional election law changes, vote tampering, manipulation and fraud, as <a href="https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/news/politics/2021/01/06/what-trump-said-rally-speech-spark-u-s-capitol-storming/6568337002/">reported by the Palm Beach Post</a>:</p><p><strong>"And after this, we're going to walk down there, and I'll be there with you, we're going to walk down ... to the Capitol and we are going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women," Trump told the crowd. "And we're probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them. Because you'll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong."…</strong></p><p><strong>"We will never give up. We will never concede. It doesn't happen. You don't concede when there's theft involved," Trump said. "Our country has had enough. We're not going to take it anymore."…</strong></p><p><strong>e further said: "You're the real people. You're the people that built this nation. You're not the people that tore down this nation."</strong></p><p><strong>The president did also say: "I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."</strong></p><p><strong>And he added in a bit of irony: "Now it is up to Congress to confront this egregious assault on our democracy."</strong></p><p>“Peacefully and patriotically” are not words you gears when progressives formed their “resistance” against Trump or as our cities burned in Antifa and BLM led riots. The George Floyd/BLM protests cost 1-2 billion dollars in damage. They protested in over 140 Cities. Dozens of people died and over 14,000 were arrested, a federal courthouse in Portland was burned, as well as a historic church in Washington, D.C. but only the Capitol Hill protestors threatened our democracy.

<p class="subheading">Social media giant Twitter has failed to remove or tag a rapper’s tweet for “glorifying violence” more than 18 hours after it was posted. Rapper Key Nyaya threatened journalist Cassandra Fairbanks with his post, saying: “maybe you need a bullet in the back of your skull.”</p>
<p>Social media giant Twitter has made efforts recently to ramp up its censorship practices, “fact-checking” a recent tweet from President Donald Trump and later tagging another tweet for “glorifying violence.” Breitbart News <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2020/05/29/twitter-hides-trump-minneapolis-tweet-accuses-him-glorifying-violence/">reported</a> on this recently, writing:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The President then sent a <a class="x5l" href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1266231100780744704" target="_blank">follow-up tweet</a>, saying: “These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen.”</p>
<p>He added that he had spoken to Governor Tim Walz and “told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!”</p>
<p>Twitter, however, took the remarkable step of hiding the President’s second tweet, covering it with a public notice appearing on the platform alleging it had “violated the Twitter Rules about glorifying violence.”</p>
<p>The tweet was not deleted outright, however, with the tech giant adding that it had “determined that it may be in the public’s interest for the Tweet to remain accessible” to users electing to click a “View” button.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>But within the same 24 hours that the president’s tweet was tagged with the “glorifying violence” tag, vVerified Twitter user and rapper Key Nyata, suggested that another user deserved to be shot. Nyata’s Facebook page lists him as a musician and he boasts a follower count of over 16,000 on Twitter.</p>
<p>Nyata quoted a tweet from journalist Cassandra Fairbanks who stated: “Judging by what has been allowed to take place in Minneapolis, maybe we need more oppression.” Nyata commented on the quoted tweet: “<span class="css-901oao css-16my406 r-1qd0xha r-ad9z0x r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0">Judging by this tweet, maybe you need a bullet in the back of your skull.”</span></p>

<p>We've mentioned in <a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/china-furious-after-twitter-retroactively-tags-tweets-top-officials">nearly every single</a> <a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/internet-platforms-arent-arbiters-truth-zuckerberg-blasts-twitter-tagging-trump-tweets">one of our</a> <a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/china-furious-after-twitter-retroactively-tags-tweets-top-officials">posts about this week's dustup</a> between the president and Twitter that the Ayatollah has an account on the company's platform, where he routinely spouts dangerously anti-American rhetoric, without drawing even a whiff of scrutiny from Twitter (or the American left),</p>
<p>Now, as the GOP cranks up the pressure on Trump's (least) favorite social media company, Senator Ted Cruz is calling for a full-on investigation of how the company treats foreign leaders who use the platform. To be sure, this isn't exactly coming out of nowhere - Cruz led an earlier pressure campaign to convince Twitter to boot senior Iranian officials off the platform, even insinuating that not doing so would violate international sanctions against Iran, as <a href="https://www.axios.com/exclusive-cruz-calls-for-criminal-investigation-of-twitter-3bec3098-3fbf-45b2-a5bf-cbda7cace940.html">Axios reported.</a></p>
<p>In a letter sent to the DoJ and the Treasury Department on Friday, Cruz asked Attorney General Bill Barr and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin to investigate whether Twitter's refusal to comply with Cruz's request violates US sanctions prohibiting American companies from providing goods and services to senior officials of targeted nations.</p>
<div class="ad__wrapper-element">Cruz isn't alone: Sen Josh Hawley suggested earlier this week that Twitter's move to affix these "warnings" to Trump's tweets was politically motivated. In a letter to Dorsey, Hawley wrote that the decision "raises serious questions about whether Twitter targeted the President for political reasons."</div>

<p class="subheading">Twitter on Tuesday began “fact-checking” President Trump’s tweets but let elected representatives of the U.S. Congress claim that the president’s campaign colluded with Russia to win the 2016 elections for three years.</p>
<p>Jack Dorsey, the founder and CEO of Twitter, said Wednesday evening that the company’s intention is to “connect the dots of conflicting statements and show the information in dispute so people can judge for themselves.”</p>
<p>However, for three years — throughout 2017, 2018, and 2019 — Democrat members of Congress stated as fact on Twitter that they had evidence that Trump colluded with Russia, which fueled the leftist narrative that the election was illegitimate.</p>
<p>Their claims were “in dispute” by other members of Congress, as well as members of the Trump administration and the president, but Twitter never flagged them as such, as it did with Trump’s recent tweets.</p>
<p>On April 21, 2019, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) tweeted that special counsel Robert Mueller “did find evidence of collusion.”</p>
<p>In fact, Mueller’s report — released three days before — said that since collusion was not a legal term, his team looked for any conspiracy or coordination with Russia and did not find any.</p>
<p>It said, “The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.”</p>
<p>However, there was no Twitter “fact check” for Schiff.</p>

<p class="subheading">President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/05/28/donald-trump-signs-exec-order-to-curb-big-techs-unchecked-power/">signed</a> an executive order today aimed at addressing social media censorship. Breitbart News has broken down the order into its key components, which include defining social media as the “modern public square,” and potentially changing Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, the crucial legal protection enjoyed exclusively by the Big Tech Masters of the Universe.</p>
<p>B</p>
<p>ased on the draft, here is a summary of the order’s key provisions:</p>
<ul>
<li>It redefines official U.S. policy towards social media platforms, stating “it is the policy of the United States that large social media platforms, such as Twitter and Facebook, as the functional equivalent of a traditional public forum, should not infringe on protected speech.”</li>
<li>Citing <em>Packingham v. North Carolina, </em>the executive order describes social media platforms as the “modern public square.”</li>
<li>“Communication through these channels has become important for meaningful participation in American democracy, including to petition elected leaders.”</li>
<li>The head of every executive department and agency is instructed to review its agency’s federal spending and advertising and marketing on online platforms, and will be prohibited from advertising on platforms that violate free speech principles.</li>
<li>The Secretary of Commerce, through the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, will petition the FCC to propose regulations that clarify the provisions of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, specifically the provision that gives tech platforms immunity for “good faith” efforts to filter or remove content that is “obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable.”</li>

<p>“We’re here today to defend free speech from one of the greatest dangers,” the president said, referring to the “unchecked power” wielded by social media companies in the United States.</p>

<p class="subheading">Twitter <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2020/05/26/twitter-brands-trump-vote-by-mail-post-with-fact-check-citing-cnn/">added</a> a “fact check” label to President Donald Trump’s tweets raising widely-held concerns with mail-in voting fraud earlier today, but it has failed to apply a similar standard to repeated falsehoods by elected Democrats, the mainstream media, and Joe Biden.</p>
<p>Unlike Facebook, which gives itself plausible deniability for fact-checking bias by relying on “third party fact checkers” (almost all left-leaning) to pick and choose what to fact-check and what to ignore, Twitter made the decision to fact-check Trump’s tweet itself, linking to an official “moment” curated by Twitter employees and containing numerous articles from the mainstream media calling the president a liar.</p>
<p>In a comment to Breitbart News, Twitter said there was no way for the President even to appeal the dubious “fact-check.”</p>
<p>In the past day alone, Twitter let falsehoods from the mainstream media have circulated without any attempt to involve “fact checkers.” The past few days and weeks reveal even more instances where misinformation from Democrats, Biden, and the mainstream media have been allowed to circulate on the platform without a fact-check.</p>
<p><strong>1. Media falsely claim that Trump went golfing on Memorial Day — <em>not fact checked by Twitter.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>2. Biden, Democrats falsely claim they called for lockdowns one week before Trump — <em>not fact checked by Twitter.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>3. China pushes conspiracy theory that the U.S. military created the coronavirus — not fact checked by Twitter.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>4. Biden claims Trump has “no comprehensive plan” for the virus or the economy — not fact checked by Twitter.</em></strong></p>

<p>The Mediaite column was a <a class="x5l" href="https://www.mediaite.com/news/many-affected-obama-surveillance-sharyl-attkisson/" target="_blank">report</a> on recent statements made by investigative journalist Sharyl Atkisson. Atkisson, formerly of CBS, alleges that her computer was spied upon by the Obama justice department in 2013 and 2014. She has been fighting a long-running legal battle with the Justice Department over the allegations, and recently moved to reopen the recently-dismissed case after a whistleblower provided new information, implicating Rod Rosenstein.</p>
<p>It seems that other users on Twitter have also been deverified in recent days. Podcast host Josh Lekach reported that he lost his verified badge shortly after posting an interview with Republican congressional candidate Laura Loomer, who is running in the GOP primary for FL-21.</p>

DeFordhttps://patriotcommandcenter.org/members/AdminMelonyBDeFord<div><p>Many people foresaw this likely happening and today it begins. Twitter has intervened in the tweets and speech of the President of the United States to review, censor and use their own perspectives to countermand the opinions of President Donald Trump.</p>
<p><a href="https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2020/05/twitter-intervenes-in-trump-speech.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="align-left" src="https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2020/05/twitter-intervenes-in-trump-speech.jpg?w=527&h=603&profile=RESIZE_584x" width="527" alt="twitter-intervenes-in-trump-speech.jpg?w=527&h=603&profile=RESIZE_584x" /></a></p>
<p>By taking this position Twitter has put themselves into the position of arbitrating the opinions of general speech. This is a remarkable shift in the control mechanism of the platform which will likely have ramifications.</p>
<p>However, beyond the intervention, it is worth pointing to thee specific issue that has triggered their decision. Note the issue of greatest concern to the command authority of Twitter is specifically mail-in ballots; this is not accidental.</p>
<p>There has been a general likelihood, a very predictable strategy, that mail-in ballots, and the ability to control them was the primary goal of Democrats and the far-left in this election cycle. As all previous efforts to remove President Trump have failed, the control of the 2020 election became even more important.</p>
<p>There are trillions at stake.</p>
<p>Mail-in ballots are the goal. A 2020 election outcome based on mail-in ballots is the overarching objective for democrats this year. 2018 was a test run in the process. 2020 was always the goal.</p>
<p>Sending two ballots to democrats, and one to registered republicans is one method. Controlling the mail carrying system is another. Selecting ballots for counting based on zip code political registration is yet another still. Ballot harvesting continues the overall process. The list of ways to manipulate voter mail-in election outcomes is very long.</p>
<p>This strategy ties in with the Blue state governors destroying their economy, holding shut their regional economies, and yet not worrying about any election outcome is a downstream result of this plan-of-action.</p>
<p>Nationally democrats plan to use federal bailouts to replace lost revenues in the Blue states that are in a zero-sum position financially. States like New York, Rhode Island, Illinois and California were already on the cusp of financial collapse; they have nothing to lose from going all-in for the bailout approach.</p>

<p>Trump and Brzezinski have long feuded on the platform and The President often refers to her morning show, “Morning Joe” as “Morning Psycho” and criticizes its low ratings. And that’s exactly what sparked Brzezinski’s reaction Wednesday after the President tweeted that there should be a “cold case” opened against Brzezinski’s co-host and husband Joe Scarborough over a conspiracy theory that Scarborough may have killed Lori Klausutis, a 28-year-old intern who tragically died while working in his then-Florida congressional office.</p>

(<a href="https://www.tipranks.com/stocks/fb/price-target" target="_blank"><strong>FB</strong></a>), Twitter Inc.

<p class="canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm">“The Radical Left is in total command & control of Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Google,” Trump said in a Twitter post. “The Administration is working to remedy this illegal situation.”</p>
<p class="canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm">Trump’s comment was triggered by a video showing part of a speech decrying tech censorship by Michelle Markin, a conservative commentator who has been criticised for backing white nationalist activists and who has previously questioned the number of Holocaust victims.</p>
<p class="canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm">The tweets come amid a report by the Wall Street Journal that the U.S. Justice Department is drafting a lawsuit against Google, claiming that the internet giant is violating antitrust laws. The Justice Department has been investigating Google’s dominant standing for nearly a decade examining whether the company is thwarting competition in the digital advertising market.</p>
<p class="canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm">If the lawsuit against Google is successful, it would represent the most significant action against the company by U.S. enforcers.

<p class="canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm">Furthermore, state attorney generals are also investigating the company. The Wall Street Journal reported earlier that Google will likely be sued by the states and the Justice Department.</p>

Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) told <em>Breitbart News Daily </em>on Tuesday that big tech needs a “cop on the beat” to rein in big tech censorship.</p>
<p><em>Breitbart News Daily </em>host and Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow asked Blackburn about big tech’s “increasing power and influence” during the coronavirus pandemic. Marlow said he was “deeply concerned” about Silicon Valley’s rising influence during a pivotal election year, noting that he has personally as well as anecdotally heard of “huge suppression” of Breitbart News stories on Google, as well as Facebook and Twitter cracking down on conservative thought.</p>
<p>Marlow noted that these “Masters of the Universe” could “swing an election” with their vast control over the Internet.</p>
<p>Blackburn noted that the rise of big tech and conservative censorship “<span style="font-weight:400;">doesn’t get the ‘</span><span style="font-weight:400;">column inches’ if you will, that other things are getting.”</span></p>
<p>She continued, noting, “<span style="font-weight:400;">You have Twitter issue a statement that they are going to take down things that are tagged stories and posts, even by politicians for things they, Twitter, the Masters of the Universe, think that are not factual, and here you go with all of these techies that have a liberal bent, and they are sitting out there in their own little universe, and we don’t like that so we will flag that.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Blackburn contended that Congress needs to pass her Browser Act to address the problem of conservative censorship. The Browser Act would <a class="x5l" href="https://www.blackburn.senate.gov/senator-blackburn-introduces-browser-act" target="_blank">require</a> Internet service providers (ISPs) such as Comcast and Verizon, as well as content providers such as Facebook, Google, and Twitter, to obtain users’ consent before collecting and selling their information for marketing. The Browser Act would also prevent social media companies from blocking users should the user decide not to consent to a tech company’s collection of his or her private data.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">“That is completely inappropriate; it’s why we need the Browser Act,” Blackburn said. “It is why we need to continue this; it is why I am staying on this issue and pushing to make certain tech has less power that we have one set of rules for the entire internet ecosystem and that we have more accessibility.”</span></p>

<p>How ironic that the 1984 <a href="https://www.cultofmac.com/462778/tiah-1984-theaters/">iconic advertisement</a> that Apple used to introduce the Macintosh computer "played on imagery from George Orwell's <em>1984</em> novella [sic] presenting Apple as rebels fighting a technocratic elite. The spot certainly was a lot gloomier than the company’s previous commercials, that used Apple celebrity spokesman Dick Cavett." In truth, "there was nothing cuddly about the new Macintosh ad, which was firmly rooted in the burgeoning dystopian cyberpunk aesthetic."</p>
<p>Ostensibly the advertisement's intention was "to remove people’s fears of technology [.]" In fact, Apple claimed that they "wanted to democratize technology, telling people that the power was now literally in their hands.”</p>
<p>How things have changed as the tech giants have morphed into near-totalitarian giants controlling far too much of our lives. Like serfs, we bend to their will or are punished.

<p>In 2016, <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/html/youve-been-restricted-14829.html">Aaron Renn</a> reported that both conservative and leftwing groups are pulled down at Twitter. In 2019 "YouTube <a href="https://barenakedislam.com/2019/06/08/outrage-as-youtube-reportedly-is-blocking-history-teachers-from-uploading-actual-hitler-archival-clips/">blocked</a> some British history teachers from its service for uploading archive material related to Adolf Hitler, saying they [were] breaching new guidelines banning the promotion of hate speech. The video-sharing website announced that it would remove material glorifying the Nazis from its platform in an attempt to stop people being radicalised. In the process however, it also deleted videos uploaded to help educate future generations about the risks of fascism." </p>

<p>Here is the Press Release:</p>
<p>May 1, 2020 (May Day) –</p>
<p>The Defeat Disinfo PAC (<a href="https://defeatdisinfo.org/">www.defeatdisinfo.org</a>) launched today to reduce the impact of disinformation emanating from President Trump through the 2020 election.</p>
<p>Defeat Disinfo is the first organization to not only study or detect political disinformation online but also to mitigate its effect at scale -- narratively, truthfully, and transparently. It is the first organized mass resistance to Trump’s disinformation by and for the American people, regardless of party.</p>
<p>“President Donald Trump is the largest amplifier of disinformation in the United States,” said Director Curtis Hougland. “People are dying as a result of his political agenda. Trump’s expressions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrate how a few words from the President result in real world damage, again and again. Defeat Disinfo will protect the American people by<br /> coordinating emotional, topical, visual, and personal narratives in response to the president’s disinformation through election day.”</p>
<p>According to a <a href="https://www.intelligence.senate.gov/sites/default/files/documents/Report_Volume4.pdf">report</a> released last week by the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, chaired by Republican Senator Richard Burr of North Carolina, Russians interfered in the 2016 election to benefit Donald Trump. Amid the continuous flow of disinformation from the Trump administration, and the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/30/technology/trump-coronavirus-social-media.html?action=click&module=Top%20Stories&pgtype=Homepage">acquiescence</a> of large technology platforms such as Facebook to stop it, US <a href="https://www.politico.com/story/2019/01/29/dan-coats-2020-election-foreign-interference-1126077">intelligence services</a> expect unprecedented disinformation in the 2020 election.</p>
<p>Defeat Disinfo serves as the front-line against the weaponization of the Internet for partisan political purposes by The White House. The PAC will support fair elections through three recurring steps:</p>
<p>Map tweets from <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump">@realDonaldTrump</a> becoming wide-spread disinformation on issues such as COVID-19<br /> Source the digital narratives proving most effective at pushing back against these untruths<br /> Invite Americans to share these highly visual and emotional narratives from real people in unison and at scale</p>
<p>Unlike Russians and the Republican Right, Defeat Disinfo will not use bots or sock puppets, falsify media, utilize models, or make up information. Instead, the organization will rely on real stories from real people.</p>
<p>At launch Defeat Disinfo analyzed disinformation resulting from President Trump’s public comments on how bleach “treats” coronavirus.</p>
<p>As a result of his dangerous comments, and subsequent attacks on the media for disseminating his falsehoods, more than a thousand Facebook groups and hundreds of thousands of posts across the internet echoed his disinformation, resulting in <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/494744-poison-control-centers-report-increase-in-calls-pertaining-to-exposure-to">spikes in calls to poison control centers</a> across the country. In response, Defeat Disinfo algorithmically identified the prevailing themes and emotions most effectively mitigating this misinformation online. Based on previous analyses prior to launch, Trump’s comments on disinfectant represent the most damaging moment in his candidacy since the coronavirus outbreak began.</p>
<p>In preparing for launch, Defeat Disinfo also tracked disinformation resulting from Trump’s comments to provoke “reopen” protesters in regard to supposedly exaggerated death counts. In response, Defeat Disinfo determined that second-person accounts of the experiences of health care workers proved most effective as a counternarrative to these strains of disinformation.</p>
<p>While Defeat Disinfo plans to expand its purview beyond COVID-19, the organization will focus initially on the disinformation emerging from the White House related to the pandemic given the catastrophic cost to the health and wealth of all Americans. Defeat Disinfo will also post narratives in response to disinformation (and misinformation) daily on its blog given the continuous flow of lies from <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump">@realDonaldTrump.</a></p>
<p>Over time Defeat Disinfo will develop the largest repository of digital narratives countering Trump’s disinformation for use by any organization invested in protecting our democracy.</p>
<p>Founded in 2020, Defeat Disinfo algorithmically identifies coordinated disinformation and organic misinformation online, and then sources peer-to-peer content to effectively push ahead of these harmful narratives online. It is the first sustained cyber and narrative approach to disinformation. Its mission is to protect the 2020 election from disinformation and preserve the will of the people at the ballot box.</p>

<p>The Washington Post Wrote the Following on the Group:</p>
<div class="post-message">A new Democratic-aligned political action committee advised by retired Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former head of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, is planning to deploy technology originally developed to counter Islamic State propaganda in service of a domestic political goal — to combat online efforts to promote President Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic.<br /> <br /> The group, Defeat Disinfo, will use artificial intelligence and network analysis to map discussion of the president’s claims on social media. It will seek to intervene by identifying the most popular counter-narratives and boosting them through a network of more than 3.4 million influencers across the country — in some cases paying users with large followings to take sides against the president.<br /> <br /> The initiative reflects fears within the Democratic Party that Trump’s unwavering digital army may help sustain him through the pandemic, as it has through past controversies, even as the economy craters, tens of thousands have died, and Trump suffers in the polls.<br /> <br /> “It’s often said campaigns are a battle of ideas, but they’re really a battle of narratives,” said David Eichenbaum, a Democratic media consultant who is a senior adviser to the PAC. “Today those narratives spread quickly online.”<br /> <br /> The initiative is run by Curtis Hougland, who received initial funding for the technology from DARPA, the Pentagon’s research arm, as part of an effort to combat extremism overseas. He insists Democrats are ill-prepared for the looming battle over information and attention, which is bound to play an outsize role in November.</div>
