Rep. Devin Nunes: The Right Needs Alternative Social Media Platforms
Republicans and conservatives need to build and use alternative social media platforms, according to Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., on Newsmax TV.
Big Tech companies such as Twitter, Facebook and YouTube have censored right-wing users and content, especially after people questioned the presidential election results, and also following the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

“We’re going to have to get back on social media and stay off the Googles, the Fakebooks, and the Twitters,” Nunes told host Greg Kelly on Friday’s “Greg Kelly Reports.” “I think it’s happening. I just got my haircut today and everybody there was talking about the challenges with social media and the legacy media. “Every day, it’s basically one mind at a time we have to win over, and that’s all we really can do as Americans right now.”

Nunes said he understood the desire of “pundits” and some people to remain engaged on the Big Tech social media platforms. However, he said the Right needs to build a new “ecosystem” via which to inform users.

“I had like 10,000 followers on YouTube in four years, and now I’m on Rumble, a YouTube alternative, and I’m well over 600,000 in just a few months,” he said. “Now, that’s not possible. YouTube has a billion users worldwide, how is it possible I only had 10,000 followers?

“We’re going to have to build our own ecosystem so that we can reach the rest of America that, quite frankly, doesn’t know what to believe or who to believe, and they’re only getting poisoned by these fake news and the fake social media companies.”


Alternative facts anyone?

I was thinking how was it possible for him to get that many.

CRUZTARDS on blast ....
Ted Cruz's wife Heidi has arrived at Cancun airport for her flight back to the US as parents at her daughters' $31,000-a-year private school demanded they quarantine after hitting the beach maskless while Texas reeled from historic storm.


The 48-year-old kept her head bowed as she walked into the terminal on Saturday alongside Catherine, 12, and Caroline, 10, after her controversial stay at the $300-a-night Ritz Carlton resort.

Quarantine you schmucks .... BWHAHAHAHA

Lawyer who filed suit to reverse 2020 election results referred by judge for discipline
An attorney who filed a lawsuit seeking to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in at least five battleground states was officially referred on Friday to receive potential disciplinary action.
In the court order, U.S. District Court Judge James Boasberg for the District of Columbia argued that the lawsuit brought by Minnesota lawyer Erick Kaardal on behalf of voters in several states contained “numerous shortcomings,” including the “flimsiness of the underlying basis for the suit.”

DOJ investigating whether Alex Jones, Roger Stone played role in Jan. 6 riots: WaPo
The Justice Department and FBI have reportedly launched a probe into whether high-profile right-wing figures like Alex Jones and Roger Stone played a role in the Capitol breach on Jan. 6.

One U.S. official, who along with the other sources spoke on the condition of anonymity, said those being investigated included Jones, Stone and “Stop the Steal” organizer Ali Alexander.

I guess I can waste a wish.

Many here were wondering why this didn't happen sooner?

We all await with bated breath for the pronouncements from the great leader next Sunday. He will whine and he will bitch while attacking those who didn't drink the Koolaid. I see Pence is a no show at CPAC, no doubt fearing a lynch mob, everybody at CPAC supports the insurrection and Trump. I wonder if someone will indict him before he speaks? :lol:

Donald Trump to address CPAC on future of Republican party
Former president Donald Trump will address the Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, in Florida next week, about the future of the Republican party and the conservative movement, a source familiar with the plan told Reuters on Saturday.

The CPAC meeting will be held in Orlando, Florida from 25 to 28 February, with Trump speaking on the final day, Reuters reported.

“He’ll be talking about the future of the Republican party and the conservative movement,” the source reportedly said. “Also look for the 45th president to take on President [Joe] Biden’s disastrous amnesty and border policies.”

Trump lost the presidency to Biden, who beat him by 306-232 in the electoral college and more than 7m ballots in the popular vote. The former president has refused to accept that result but now lives at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

Last week he survived a second impeachment, for inciting the deadly insurrection at the US Capitol on 6 January, as part of his attempt to overturn his defeat.

Seven Republican senators voted to convict, 10 short of the figure needed but indicative of a party split between supporters of Trump and an establishment seeking to move on.

Ten House Republicans voted to impeach and Trump has expressed anger their way. On Tuesday he aimed fire at Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell, the most senior elected Republican.

The loss of the White House to Biden and control of the Senate, which Democrats picked up in a pair of upset Georgia election runoff victories last month, coupled with the rise of extreme rightwing figures who vocally support Trump, has left Republican leaders on edge as they plot how to win Congress back in 2022.

Trump and McConnell parted ways in the weeks after the November election, with Trump angered that the Kentucky Republican recognised Biden as the winner in mid-December. They have not spoken since, a former White House official said this week.

The gap widened when McConnell declared after the Senate acquittal that Trump was “practically and morally responsible” for the Capitol attack and open to criminal prosecution. In return, Trump called McConnell “a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack” and said that if Republicans stay with him “they will not win again”.

Polling shows that though thousands have left the party since the Capitol attack, a clear majority of those left support Trump and would vote for him if he entered the primary for the presidential nomination in 2024.

It was also reported this week that the former White House strategist Steve Bannon thought Trump was suffering from early onset dementia while in office.

A number of top Republicans who are considered possible candidates for the 2024 presidential nomination are also due to speak at CPAC, including former secretary of state Mike Pompeo and Kristi Noem, the governor of South Dakota.

Two notable figures not on the CPAC speaker list are former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley and former Vice-President Mike Pence.

Another anonymous source told Reuters Trump had rebuffed a request by Haley to meet with him recently after she was critical of him in a Politico article.

Pence’s life was threatened by the Capitol mob, when he refused to go along with Trump’s attempts to overturn the election.

Conservatives and CPAC attendees were slow to accept Trump when he first ran for office, leading him to withdraw from the event during the 2016 primaries. But he has come to dominate the event, offering red meat to a party base apparently entirely in his thrall.

“Do you remember I started running and people would say, ‘Are you sure he’s a conservative?’” he asked its audience in 2018. “I think now we’ve proved that I’m a conservative, right?”

As bad as trump was he was a symptom of the loss of the fairness doctrine. As a Canadian, looking from the outside I've been trying to figure out what went wrong with America and how it got to where it is now. To me, it looks like the loss of that legislation has resulted in the downfall of their society.


Controlling the information people are fed will shape their beliefs.

Which is what the world just witnessed with the disinformation regarding the election. The bulk of these trump supporters who are generally "poorly educated" according to his words, are susceptible to being misled and by not having truthful broadcasting it permits lies and misinformation to infect their minds. Look at the right wing media, I can't think of a right wing news organization that is generally honest.


"When people are influenced by undisclosed political bias in the news they consume, “that’s pretty bad for democratic politics, pretty bad for our country to have people be consistently misinformed and think they’re informed,” Groeling said." An excerpt from the article.

Notice how the right wing media has a huge gap on the top where it refers to reliability.

Fox just completely pulled some propaganda on their Sunday show with Chris Wallace.

They had Fauci on, and showed a clip of Harris answering a question then when she was done it skipped into Biden talking with absolutely no context. And then expected Fauci to answer to it on air. He did clearly answer it, but it was bullshit that they pulled that on their viewers.

Edit: It is about 26 minutes into the show when Wallace starts his attempt at trolling Biden/Harris on the opening of schools.

Also I made a mistake, it was his press secretary that they did it on, at 28 minutes.

Wallace: And look at this contradiction.

Cuts to Jen Paski "Teaching at least 1 day of the week at a majority of the school by day 100"
Then immediately cuts to Biden "No that's not true, thats what was reported, that's not true, it was a mistake in the communication."

Wallace: "Isn't it a mistake to make predictions" or something like that. The clip isn't up yet.

Typical, par for the course as they say.

Without media being held to higher standards this trash will continue and the American society will continue to degenerate into political mayhem. Pretty sad.
