{ frontpagemag.com } ~ The Mueller coup bill which got out of the Senate Judiciary Committee... has troubling implications even far beyond the politics of the moment. The idea of an independent prosecutor has always been controversial. Far too much power has already shifted away to the unelected officials of the judiciary and away from officials elected by voters. Democrats turned on the idea after the Starr-liar-Clinton era, but now they would like to make the special counsel into a permanent institution at the discretion of any friendly federal judge. The bill doesn't just empower an endless coup effort by Mueller and his team of liar-Clinton/liar-nObama allies. It provides for a dramatic power shift. It allows DOJ figures and judicial allies to launch a permanent investigation, much like the one aimed at Trump, that turns into an endless witch hunt...

{ rickwells.us } ~ Laura Ingraham notes that the illegal squatter agitators, including one individual named Alex Mensing of Pueblos Sin Fronteras... who are helping the invaders that were part of the illegal caravan from Central America to force their way into our country. She tells Congressman Steve King that the concern is “We’ve got American lawyers and other non-governmental organizations, almost working hand in glove, de facto, with media outlets to push Mexico” to put the political pressure on Mexico and keep it all going. King says, “Watching this caravan make its way towards the United States, and divert towards Tijuana, I’m seeing the way they’re facilitating this with the media and with the immigration attorneys.” He points out, “There’s federal statutes that prohibit and create a felony for contributing and aiding and abetting illegal immigration.”...  https://rickwells.us/king-obama-immigration-laws/

{ westernjournal.com } ~ John Bolton will be making some big changes to the National Security Council... according to a recent Fox News report. As the newly appointed national security adviser in the Trump administration, Bolton has warned NSC employees that staff changes are coming, including a flood of new people and a structure reorganization, Fox News reported Wednesday via a Trump administration source. Bolton reportedly told staffers in a Wednesday morning memo that these staff changes may include high-level director positions. “The source said that while some at the National Security Council (NSC) welcome Bolton’s changes, the news will upset many White House staffers who are overworked and overwhelmed as a result of the administration’s mercurial foreign policy,” Fox reported...

{ freebeacon.com } ~ Religious liberty advocates received a boost in federal courts after the Senate confirmed one of the nation's leading First Amendment attorneys... to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. The Senate voted to approve President Trump's nominee, Kyle Duncan, to Louisiana's Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday. Duncan is the former general counsel at the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, a nonprofit law firm that "exists to defend the free exercise of all faiths, from Anglican to Zoroastrian," as it says on its website. The group has been involved in some of the most high profile religious liberty cases in the nation in recent years, helping nuns at the Little Sisters of the Poor and religious business owners at Hobby Lobby resist the liar-nObama administration's contraception and abortifacient mandate. It also successfully defended the rights of Muslim prisoners and Sikh soldiers to abide by their religious teachings. Duncan joined the firm in 2012 after serving as Louisiana attorney general and participated in the Hobby Lobby case. Becket president Mark Rienzi praised his former colleague on his confirmation. Rienzi said Duncan was a talented attorney and stalwart defender of the Constitution. He said religious liberty attorneys often find themselves facing strict hurdles to federal service, dubbing it the "stained glass ceiling," but said Duncan's two-year tenure at Becket would benefit Americans going through the federal judicial system...

mad-Maxine Waters Hopeful 
Illegal Search Will Give Her Trump Scalp

{ rickwells.us } ~ Subhuman rabid mongrel Democrat mad-Maxine Waters of California... has abandoned any efforts to disguise her attacks on President Trump as somehow being legitimate. She and her scumbag Party are upset that their espionage criminal and racketeer lost so she’s going to do whatever she can to interfere with President Trump’s ability to govern and ultimately remove him from office. The delusional California cur seems to believe that she is endowed with superior moral character and intellect, which entitle her with the right and the ability to overrule the decisions and wishes of the rest of us, to correct the “mistakes” our “undersized little redneck brains” have allowed us to make, particularly in the area of electing President Trump. This wicked witch is going to “save us from ourselves” no matter what it takes and the end justifies the means. She’s not worried about the existence of any legal, ethical or Constitutional merit to her COUP effort. She’s not even any longer concerned with hiding her blatant subversion against this nation. mad-Waters admits she’s targeting President Trump but is too stupid or dishonest, likely both, to recognize that there are legal requirements for removal, called impeachable offenses, in the Constitution. He must have committed “high crimes and misdemeanors.” Being a white guy that she doesn’t like isn’t enough...  https://rickwells.us/maxine-waters-trump-scalp/

{ freebeacon.com } ~ The Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) paid $1.3 million... to a "resistance" group led by liar-Hillary Clinton for the acquisition of its lists, filings show.  liar-Clinton launched Onward Together in April of last year with the intent of providing funding to established liberal groups that could quickly counter President Donald Trump using direct action and protests. Last May, liar-Clinton pushed $800,000 from her campaign funds to her group. The DNC, which is millions of dollars in debt, found a way to cut hefty checks to liar-Clinton's group even as they neglected state Democratic parties...  http://freebeacon.com/politics/dnc-dccc-pay-1-3-million-hillary-groups-lists/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=1c646cd49e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_04_25&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-1c646cd49e-45611665

Facebook Publishes Removal Policies, but Bias Remains 

mnrfMS1i6Vb7qj7Vzej1ABo4D-L7I29gdkmfzMcnlj56dFLvKlH3stkpRrUH3w7GvP2zOn38gRkZVBUBueJOvg7BbWERhBZygtDGF_ztGQKxyiTYmqNqapMEddQa58eLIe8Kklu4k0czujbwY3K95paWGwVr40gnoW_qHvKs1uU=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=450by Louis DeBroux:  Recently, the American people were treated to a dog and pony show where Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was hauled before Congress and grilled over two primary issues — Facebook’s handling of users’ data, and the user content bias shown by the world’s dominant social media platform.

              In response, Facebook published its internal guidelines for how its 7,500 worldwide content reviewers determine what should be removed for violations of policies regarding “hate speech, violent threats, sexual exploitation and more.” Facebook also promised to review how data from its 2.2 billion users is accessed and used by third parties.
               The data privacy issue distressed many Facebook users after the revelation that a company called Cambridge Analytica purchased personal information on 50 million people and used it to provide advice to Donald Trump’s campaign during the 2016 elections.
               A couple of things should be noted about this revelation. First, the information was collected as a result of a personality quiz voluntarily downloaded by 270,000 users who agreed to allow the app to collect personal information on themselves and their friends. While those friends have a legitimate complaint regarding third-party use of their personal information, the reality is that this is the very basis of Facebook’s revenue model; namely, collecting user’s demographic information and personal preferences and selling it to marketers, who create targeted ads. Facebook is free to end users for a reason, and users should be aware that if you are not paying for the product, then you are the product.
               Of course, any protests and hand-wringing from the Left here is entirely disingenuous. Barack liar-nObama employed a nearly identical method of gathering personal information during in 2012. When users downloaded hisliar-nObama 2012 Facebook app, his campaign collected mountains of personal data on more than 190 million people, almost four times that of the Trump campaign.
               And far from being described in dark and conspiratorial terms, the Leftmedia celebrated liar-nObama’s mining of user data in advancing the progressive political agenda done without end users’ knowledge or permission. Time magazine positively glowed, declaring data-mining Facebook would “transform the way campaigns are conducted in the future.”
               Nor was the liar-nObama campaign shy about what they had done. Carol Davidsen, director of data integration and media analytics for liar-nObama for America, bragged, “We ingested the entire U.S. social graph. … We would ask permission to basically scrape your profile, and also scrape your friends, basically anything that was available to scrape. We scraped it all.”
               The other aspect of the congressional hearings was Facebook’s reputation for showing bias favoring progressive users/viewpoints and against conservative users/viewpoints.
               When questioned, Zuckerberg blamed any discrepancies on innocent human error, acknowledging that accusations of bias are a “fair concern,” but promising that he endeavors to avoid “any bias in the work that we do.
               That is, of course, utter nonsense. Zuckerberg admitted an inherent liberal bias in Silicon Valley corporations, and independent studies confirmed an intentional leftist bias in how user content is displayed in the newsfeed.
               Facebook jumped at the opportunity to use accusations of Russian interference in the 2016 elections to justify further alienation of conservative/Republican viewpoints. While liar-Hillary claims a Russian troll farm cost her the election (among a hundred other things) by spending $46,000 on Facebook ads, the claim is ludicrous considering that is a drop in a very large bucket compared to the $81 million in ad buys by the liar-Clinton and Trump campaigns.
               In an effort to supposedly combat “fake news,” Facebook changed its newsfeed algorithm to prioritize allegedly trustworthy news sources. Yet the actual impact has been a significant increase in traffic to liberal/progressive sites and articles, and a significant decrease to conservative sites/articles. For example, following the change, the left-leaning New York Daily News saw a 24.18% increase in traffic, and the right-leaning New York Post saw an 11.44% decrease. Other conservative sites dropped as much as 55%. Meanwhile, liberal sites were either unaffected or saw an increase.
               This should come as no surprise, considering Facebook’s head of news partnership is none other than former NBC and CNN anchor Campbell Brown. Rather than denying partisanship, Brown embraces it, announcing at a recent tech forum, “This is not us stepping back from news. … This is us changing our relationship with publishers. … It’s having a point of view, and it’s leaning into quality news. … We are, for the first time in the history of Facebook, taking a step to try to define what ‘quality news’ looks like and give that a boost.
               Of course, to progressives like Brown, “quality news” is that which advances a leftist worldview.
               And while Facebook has announced an appeal process for post removals, the bias remains. The Diamond and Silk page (two Trump-supporting black women with 1.6M followers) was censored this month for being “unsafe to the community,” yet the Facebook pages of racist anti-Semites Louis Farrakhan and Al Sharpton remained active.
               Facebook users should be aware of several things. One, Facebook exists to make money, and users are the product. Don’t expect privacy. Two, Facebook is a reflexively leftist partisan organization, using its influence to advance progressivism. Three, the First Amendment binds government infringement of free speech, but does not apply to corporations. (Non) Buyer beware.
