    The bottom line with the three amigos is very simple. If it's anti-Trump, then it's OK. TDS at a high level. And they are with the party of kindness and tolerance!! Go figure.

    Watching Trump certainly draws ratings. It's the same as watching a train wreck - hard to take your eyes away.

    Tom...She has been completely obsessed with Trump as was evident by her ripping up his State of the Union Address during the address

    Your response...No, she ripped up the speech AFTER he was finished as a very clear message of what she thought of it. I agreed with her. (This is how nasty rumors get started, changing just one word to make it sound worse.)

    YUP! Just speaking for myself and I have articulated why for years now. Don't know what you fringers will do without his hollering, screaming, lying and bullying and feeding you red meat.

    Maybe he replaces Limbaugh.

    That's a fine start for his 4th week in office considering the massive mess the dufus left.

    The Aussies are getting tired of the power big tech has over basic rights , like freedom of speech ,assumed guaranteed in a free society .

    Quote:

    Global leaders will be asked to back Australia in a fight with Facebook over its market power after the social media giant silenced news, health and emergency services in a bid to halt a federal law.
    Prime Minister Scott Morrison raised the shock tactic with Indian counterpart Narendra Modi on Thursday night in the first step of a plan to mobilise global support to stop Facebook “bullying” elected governments.
    https://www.smh.com.au/politics/fede...18-p573se.html

    The US won't be joining that fight .We have been subued .Most of the world trusted in US institutions to prevent abuse by the tech titans. Few realized that tech could, through political alliances, capture Washington and impose it's will on our government .

    Can Quid pro Joe control them or does he owe them ?

    Maybe Morrison can tame Facebook and the arrogant prick that owns it .

    Australia has tamed google who have capitulated and they will tame facebook. Facebook withdrew news service from Australia resulting in aussies returning to legitimate news sources for news and reducing facebook overreach. When a sovereign nation takes on a corporation there can only be one outcome. We have a long history of dealing with monopolies

    That's not exactly correct. FB withdrew quite a number of small, targeted news sources that will not be replaced with other news sources.


    • "Dozens of Facebook pages belonging to charities, small businesses, public services and governments were all removed, raising concerns that people could miss out on vital information.
    • Save the Children Australia, the Hobart Women’s Shelter, and the Kids Cancer Project had their pages pulled from the platform, as did Brisbane City Council, South Australia Health and the Bureau of Meteorology."


    But to be clear, I'm all for you and your fight. Best wishes. It's a shame the spineless jellyfish we have in the White House won't pitch in.

    I'm afraid that's true. The liberal dems owe big tech too much to oppose them.

    Conservative repubs hate big tech after they started refusing to help spread lies conspiracy theories and hate speech. Even big repub donors are thinking twice about supporting the loony right wing fringers.

    Obviously whatever you're sniffing doesn't add to your knowledge of horses one bit.
