Big Brother Alert! US Gov’t Submitted More Info Requests To Twitter Than Any Other Country

Twitter VP Sinéad McSweeney warned of unprecedented authorities crackdowns on free speech and requests for surveillance of web customers within the platform’s newest transparency report.

It speaks volumes when Huge Tech executives sound the alarm on censorship. “In a change from our final reporting interval, the USA grew to become the one largest supply of presidency info requests with 3,026 requests, accounting for twenty-four% of the worldwide quantity we acquired throughout this era,” Twitter defined in the transparency report issued on Jan. 25. “These requests accounted for 27% of all accounts specified from around the globe and Twitter complied, in entire or partly, with 68% of those U.S. info requests.” “We’re going through unprecedented challenges as governments around the globe more and more try and intervene and take away content material,” the report quoted firm Vice President of World Public Coverage and Philanthropy McSweeney as saying. “This menace to privateness and freedom of expression is a deeply worrying pattern that requires our full consideration.”

Far-right groups hope trucker protest will be Canada’s ‘January 6th’

Far-right groups hope trucker protest will be Canada’s ‘January 6th’

Canadian far-right and white nationalist groups see the so-called “Freedom Convoy” as an opportunity, with some hoping the protests will be Canada’s version of last year’s Jan. 6 riot in Washington.

Hundreds of truckers and their supporters are making their way from B.C. to Ottawa for a planned protest outside Parliament on Saturday.

The inevitable hit piece.  Smells like Katie Telford.

Update- Organizer of anti-vaccine mandate convoy says it won’t tolerate extremists or violence

A key player behind a convoy travelling to Ottawa to protest a vaccine mandate for truckers is warning that those planning to use the event for acts of violence or vandalism won’t be tolerated.

Addressing her Facebook followers in a video posted on the Freedom Convoy 2022 Facebook page, Tamara Lich said the convoy is expected to arrive at Parliament Hill in Ottawa over the weekend to protest what she calls infringements of personal liberty caused by public health orders.

“If you see participants along the way that are misbehaving, acting aggressively in any way or inciting any type of violence or hatred, please take down the truck number and their licence plate number so that we can forward that to the police,” she said.

Usual suspects demonize & censor honest discussion of immigration policy in high school curriculum

Anti-racism advocates call for educational reform after concerning immigration assignment

Advocacy groups are calling on a number of organizations, including the education department and school districts to undertake an anti-racism educational reform.

The recommendations from the groups come a week after CBC News posted a story about a junior high school assignment that asked students to write down why immigrants and refugees should and should not be allowed into the country, using the textbook.

University professors called the assignment racist and were concerned with the textbook’s suggestions for opposing migration: newcomers “may take jobs away from resident Canadians,” and “Some immigrants draw on social welfare programs and services,” according to the textbook.


The Horror! They strayed from the Liberal-left “narrative!”

University professors, the media and the usual cast of vote whoring politicians who seek to criminalize dissent are the problem not an honest discussion of immigration policy.

Immigration policy should benefit a nation’s citizens. In Canada it benefits the political & corporate classes at our expense.

Colleyville and the ‘professional’ civil servants

… At any rate, given the outcome at the scene, from a professional statecraft perspective, De Sarno and his team played things by the book. De Sarno’s denial of the terrorist’s anti-Semitic motivation had nothing to do with professionalism. It was a political/ideological pronouncement. It wasn’t made in a vacuum, and it should be deeply disconcerting to all Americans because it is a testament to a growing pathology within the FBI.

Over the past 15 years, much of the federal government, including the FBI and the U.S. Department of Justice, have been politicized and radicalized. The first major demonstration of the politicization came in 2013 with the IRS’s discriminatory use of its regulatory authorities against organizations and individuals aligned with the conservative and Republican side of the ideological/political spectrum.

New ‘Domestic Terror Unit’ Is A Way To Punish Americans For Thought Crimes

On Tuesday, Department of Justice representatives informed a Senate committee of plans to gather a group of select attorneys to form a “Domestic Terror Unit” in light of the Jan. 6, 2021 attack, noting that its number of investigations of alleged domestic terrorists have more than doubled since the spring of 2020. While admitting “there is no single federal crime labeled ‘domestic terrorism,’” a DOJ official promised to invoke a “criminal code” that allows enhanced sentences for certain crimes listed as “terror offenses.”

Quebec Embraces Two-Tier Healthcare

Demonization and scapegoating of unvaccinated Canadians continues, and the credibility of Canada’s supposedly ‘universal’ socialist healthcare system crumbles even further.

It amazes me that the revolution will begin, and maybe has already begun, in places like Quebec, New York, and California. I should have realized that the first people to start feeling the pain personally would be the ones ruled by  authoritarian socialists.

New Film ‘Capitol Punishment’ Counters Media’s Jan. 6 ‘Insurrection’ Narrative

Nick Searcy attended the Jan. 6, 2021 protests summoned by then-President Donald Trump, camera in hand.

The “Justified” star couldn’t have predicted what would happen later that day or the ensuing political earthquake.

His documentary, “Capitol Punishment,” offers a media corrective to the “insurrection” mania that gripped the press over the past year. He also lets many of the protesters speak, everyday Americans who didn’t even step foot in the Capitol building but are paying an astronomical price for suggesting the election was “stolen.”

Fact: The 2020 election was stolen.

RCMP Commish Brenda Lucki Goes Full STASI Calls For Nation Of Informers To Criminalize Dissent

RCMP Commish urges people to tell them when they spot ‘anti-government’ opinions on Net

“When in doubt, report it,” Commissioner Brenda Lucki said in a statement.

“Canadians go about their daily lives and routines. It’s easy to overlook the seemingly ordinary moments that make up our days.”

The RCMP yesterday issued a guide that encouraged Internet users to watch for people with suspicious politics or “anti-authority” views that “include anti-government, anti-law enforcement and anarchist” opinions or “grievance-driven ideologies.”

Like Islam or Antifa? I kid myself.

Justice Dept. creating unit focused on domestic terrorism

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department is establishing a specialized unit focused on domestic terrorism, the department’s top national security official told lawmakers Tuesday as he described an “elevated” threat from violent extremists in the United States.

Assistant Attorney General Matthew Olsen, testifying just days after the nation observed the one-year anniversary of the violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, said the number of FBI investigations into suspected domestic violent extremists has more than doubled since the spring of 2020.

Who Are the Real Insurrectionists?

Recently, Democrats have been despondent over President Joe Biden’s sinking poll numbers. His policies on the economy, energy, foreign policy, the border, and COVID-19 all have lost majority support.

As a result, the left now variously alleges that either in 2022, when it expects to lose the Congress, or in 2024, when it fears losing the presidency, Republicans will “destroy democracy” or stage a coup.

A cynic might suggest that those on the left praise democracy when they get elected, only to claim it is broken when they lose. Or they hope to avoid their defeat by trying to terrify the electorate. Or they mask their own revolutionary propensities by projecting them onto their opponents.

After all, who is trying to federalize election laws in national elections contrary to the spirit of the Constitution? Who wishes to repeal or circumvent the Electoral College? Who wishes to destroy the more than 180-year-old Senate filibuster, the over 150-year-old nine-justice Supreme Court, and the more than 60-year-old 50-state union?
