Shaun King Rage Quits Twitter Over Elon Musk’s Purchase

Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter is already the gift that keeps on giving.

Shortly after news broke that the platform would once again respect the freedom of speech, far-left activist Shaun King deleted his entire account. King, or “Talcum X” as he is often referred, had tweeted earlier in the day that Musk “wanting to purchase Twitter is not about left vs right. It’s about white power.” “The man was raised in Apartheid by a white nationalist,” King added, referring to Musk being South African. “He’s upset Twitter won’t allow white nationalists to target/harass people. That’s his definition of free speech.” Speaking of targeting and harassing, King previously threatened the Kenosha police and blasted an individual member of the police department so they he could be intimidated by the violent left. He is known for spreading hate hoaxes, which almost always have a victim that becomes subjected to his hate mobs. Former Good Place actress turned obnoxious leftist activist Jameela Jamil also quit the platform, though she did not delete her account. “Ah he got twitter. I would like this to be my what lies here as my last tweet. Just really *any* excuse to show pics of Barold. I fear this free speech bid is going to help this hell platform reach its final form of totally lawless hate, bigotry, and misogyny. Best of luck. ❤️” Jamil tweeted, along with four photos of herself appearing to play with her dog in her bra.

Jeff Bezos Suggests China May Gain Influence After Musk’s Twitter Purchase — Forgets His Garbage WaPo Rag Gets Paid Millions by China to Promote Its Propaganda

Jeff Bezos bought the far-left Washington Post in 2013 for $250 million. He got took.

On Monday Jeff Bezos suggested that China may gain influence after Elon Musk’s Twitter purchase for $45 billion.

Newsmax reported:

Amazon founder and executive chairman Jeff Bezos raised the specter of possible Chinese influence Monday, after Tesla founder and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion earlier in the day.

TRENDING: BREAKING: IT’S OFFICIAL! TWITTER IS SOLD! Twitter Shares Halted Pending News of Sale – Company Sold to Elon Musk for $44 Billion

On Twitter Monday, Bezos — reportedly the second-richest man in the world — responded to a tweet from New York Times reporter Mike Forsythe, outlining the links between China and Musk (reportedly the World’s Richest Man).

What a hypocrite.
Bezos must have forgotten that his far-left rag gets paid millions by the Chinese Communists to publish its propaganda!

And not surprisingly, there’s plenty of projection involved: Amazon Deleted Reviews of Chinese President’s Book Per CCP’s Demand.

UPDATE: China Daily paid US papers $19 million in advertising, printing. “China Daily, which is a Chinese state-owned English-language newspaper, is required by U.S. law to disclose its business dealings with the Justice Department under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), according to a report by Freedom House. The Chinese paper’s most recent filings were submitted on June 1 and include expenses from November 2016 to April 2020, the Daily Caller reported. The Justice Department records show that over the past four years, China Daily has paid the Washington Post over $4.6 million, and The Wall Street Journal almost $6 million, in advertising expenses. The state-run media outlet also paid The New York Times $50,000, Foreign Policy $240,000, The Des Moines Register $34,600, and CQ-Roll Call $76,000 for ads, according to the records.” (Emphasis mine.)

THE MELTDOWN IS GLORIOUS: Democrats, Thugs and Fascists React to Elon Musk Purchase of Twitter with Predictable Fury

Twitter finally agreed to Elon Musk’s offer on a takeover bid deal for $44 billion on Monday. Twitter was reportedly re-examining Elon Musk’s $43 billion takeover supply after the billionaire lined up financing for the bid over the weekend. They reached an agreement on Monday. Twitter is well-known for stifling, censoring and banning free speech in America. Twitter silenced The Gateway Pundit, Joe Hoft, Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones and even the President of the United States. Only conservatives get banned. There should be laws against this. Elon Musk previously said his interest in Twitter was not so much to make money as it was to restore free speech on the internet. He now has that opportunity. Already there are calls to reinstate prominent conservative accounts banned by the social media giant. Alex Bruesswitz released a video earlier calling on Twitter to reinstate top conservatives who were banned from the platform: President Donald Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Babylon Bee, The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft, Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, James O’Keefe, and Juanita Broadrick.

Hunter Biden Begged His Dead Brother’s Widow Hallie Biden to Get HIV Test During Affair

Meanwhile at Camp Biden… Hunter Biden told his dead brother’s widow Hallie Biden to get tested for HIV while they were having an affair in 2018. Recall, a married Hunter Biden started ‘dating’ his brother’s wife Hallie whilst Beau was on his death bed with brain cancer. According to Hunter Biden’s ex-wife Kathleen Biden, Hunter began the extramarital affair with Hallie Biden while Beau was still alive. And Joe Biden said he ‘fully supported’ this filth. “We are all lucky that Hunter and Hallie found each other as they were putting their lives together again after such sadness. They have mine and Jill’s full and complete support and we are happy for them,” Joe Biden said in a previous statement to Page Six. Emails from 2018 show a “sick scared” Hunter Biden begging Hallie Biden to get screened for HIV and inform him of the results. Hunter Biden had impregnated Lunden Roberts, a DC stripper at the time and was “sick scared” he had contracted HIV. The Daily Caller reported:

First son Hunter Biden begged his brother’s widow, Hallie Biden, to get screened for HIV during his affair with his ex-sister-in-law, according to emails obtained by the Daily Caller.

Biden begged Hallie to undergo HIV screening roughly a month before he fathered a child with a former stripper, Lunden Roberts, in 2018. Emails uncovered on the laptop he abandoned in Delaware show that he was “sick scared” of having contracted the chronic illness.

“TODAY. I am getting tested today. I have been sick scared Hallie and [hang] up on me,” Biden wrote in one email to his brother’s widow, whom he then accused of hurting his mental health. “The love you give is so disturbing,” Biden wrote to Hallie in an email under the subject line “YOU NEED TO GET TESTED FOR HIV HALLIE.”

FDA Approves First and Only Covid-19 Treatment for Pediatric Patients as Young as 28 Days Old

The Food and Drug Administration on Monday granted its full approval of the COVID-19 antiviral treatment Veklury (remdesivir) for infants and young children. The treatment was previously under emergency use authorization for children.

According to the news release, FDA would expand the treatment of Remdesivir to include pediatric patients 28 days of age and older weighing at least 3 kilograms (about 7 pounds) with positive results of direct Covid-19 viral testing, and are either hospitalized or at high-risk of severe illness.

More from FDA, read here and below:

This action makes Veklury the first approved COVID-19 treatment for children less than 12 years of age. As a result of today’s approval action, the agency also revoked the emergency use authorization for Veklury that previously covered this pediatric population.

TRENDING: BREAKING: IT’S OFFICIAL! TWITTER IS SOLD! Twitter Shares Halted Pending News of Sale – Company Sold to Elon Musk for $44 Billion

Before now, Veklury was only approved to treat certain adults and pediatric patients (12 years of age and older who weigh at least 40 kilograms, which is about 88 pounds) with COVID-19.

“As COVID-19 can cause severe illness in children, some of whom do not currently have a vaccination option, there continues to be a need for safe and effective COVID-19 treatment options for this population,” said Patrizia Cavazzoni, M.D., director of the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. “Today’s approval of the first COVID-19 therapeutic for this population demonstrates the agency’s commitment to that need.”

Veklury is not a substitute for vaccination in individuals for whom COVID-19 vaccination and booster doses are recommended. The FDA has approved two vaccines, and three vaccines are available for emergency use, to prevent COVID-19 and the serious clinical outcomes associated with COVID-19, including hospitalization and death. The FDA urges the public to get vaccinated and receive a booster when eligible. Learn more about FDA-approved and authorized COVID-19 vaccines.

Given the similar course of COVID-19 disease in adults and pediatric patients, today’s approval of Veklury in certain pediatric patients is supported by efficacy results from phase 3 clinical trials in adults. Information on the trials in adults can be found in the FDA-approved drug labeling for Veklury. This approval is also supported by a phase 2/3, single-arm, open-label clinical study of 53 pediatric patients at least 28 days of age and weighing at least 3 kilograms (about 7 pounds) with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection and mild, moderate or severe COVID-19. Patients in this pediatric phase 2/3 trial received Veklury for up to 10 days. The safety and pharmacokinetic results from the phase 2/3 study in pediatric subjects were similar to those in adults.

The only approved dosage form is Veklury for injection.

Possible side effects of using Veklury include increased levels of liver enzymes, which may be a sign of liver injury; and allergic reactions, which may include changes in blood pressure and heart rate, low blood oxygen level, fever, shortness of breath, wheezing, swelling (e.g., lips, around eyes, under the skin), rash, nausea, sweating or shivering.

The FDA granted approval to Gilead Sciences Inc.

TFB Podcast Roundup 40: The ATF, Primers, and Range Etiquette

0

Welcome to TFB Podcast Roundup 40. The firearms industry is quite an interesting place to me. Before I ever started writing for TFB, I basically only ever looked at firearms through the lens of self-defense, hunting, and mag dumping into the trash at the local clay pit. Working for TFB has greatly expanded the world of firearms to me and gun-oriented podcasts have expanded it even further. Books are great reference material but with most people these days having busy schedules and reading during commutes being highly looked down upon, podcasts just fill a gap that a formal class or presentation would normally fill for those looking to seek after the knowledge of others. With all that being said, this week’s podcast roundup will feature a wide variety of subject matter ranging from the updated ATF eForms process, guiding guests at your local gun range, a good talk about pocket pistols, and of course, another chance to check out our homegrown podcast, where we talk with Richie with Expansion Industries about their brand new primer production facility, focused on getting primers back in the hands of handloaders.

I’m your host, Ava Flanell.

Mike (MrGunsNGear) is always at the forefront of ATF news and I often enjoy his summarizing of the latest news affecting gun owners as it happens. Mike is always very thorough, upfront, and honest about what he knows for sure and what he can only speculate but I’ve found that historically he’s often been spot on with his analysis. In addition to the ATF discussion, he and Ava also talk a good bit about some other recent happenings both inside and outside the firearms world.

HORROR: 73-Year-Old Former Nun Carjacked While Donating Clothes, Gets Run Over in Church Parking Lot

0

New York – An elderly woman was carjacked while donating clothes then got run over in a church parking lot on Saturday night.

73-year-old Lorraine Lombardo, a former nun, left her car running outside St. Mary’s Church in Lake Ronkonkoma while she quickly dropped off clothes when a homeless woman jumped in the vehicle and tried to drive off.

According to police, Lombardo opened the passenger side door and tried to wrestle the steering wheel back from Doreen Dunbar, the homeless carjacker.

Dunbar hit the gas pedal, knocked Lombardo to the ground and ran over both of her legs.

Lombardo suffered serious injuries but is expected to recover.

CBS News reported:

A Long Island woman was arraigned Monday in a shocking crime that has much of Lake Ronkonkoma talking.

The suspect tried to steal a car in a church parking lot then ran over the car’s elderly owner, police told CBS2’s Jennifer McLogan.

Historic St. Mary’s Episcopal Church, overlooking Lake Ronkonkoma, is known for its preschool, thrift shop and donation bins to help the community. Now, they’re praying for a parishioner who was carjacked in the parking lot while dropping off clothes.

“Getting run over is horrible. But when you’re doing it, trying to do something kind, it’s terrible,” parishioner Maureen Watts-Cassero said.

The victim, a 73-year-old former nun, lives in St. James. Her friend described Lorraine Lombardo as a retired nurse with a kind heart. That gesture of kindness resulted in a violent crime.

Lombardo came to church to donate, but left the motor running when she exited her car.

According to police, 50-year-old Doreen Dunbar jumped behind the wheel, attempted to make a getaway, reversed, accelerated, knocked down the elderly woman, partially running over Lombardo’s legs, and fled.

Police said they secured surveillance video.

Five Ways the Current Management at Twitter Tramples on Free Speech Rights

0

Will Elon Musk save free speech?  For the sake of world history, we hope so. 

Twitter is an amazing tool with the incredible ability to share information instantaneously with millions and billions around the world.  However, the current management used it as a tool to promote far-left insanity and by doing so, destroyed free speech in the US.

Here is a list of some of the ways, the current management at Twitter has trampled on free speech – a key American right.

1. Most notably Twitter’s management kicked you off their platform if they didn’t like you.  The most notable person kicked off the platform was the best user of Twitter in history – President Donald Trump.  But there were many others who were kicked off the platform as well.  Users with hundreds of thousands of followers and users with thousands of followers were kicked off the platform because they were conservatives who loved America and President Trump.

President Trump Is Kicked Off of Twitter But Hamas Leader Allowed to Celebrate the “Bombing of Tel Aviv”

2. Twitter management would censor individuals for days at a time when they shared something that the far-left management team at Twitter didn’t like.  [I had this happen to me when I shared an article about Hunter Biden before the 2020 Election that was taken from his laptop and totally true.]  Twitter used this tactic to keep users from sharing what the management did not like and to scare them into complying in their future interactions with the platform.

3. Twitter management ‘shadow banned’ individual accounts and tweets it did not like. A conservative may tweet an amazing piece of information but that tweet wouldn’t be seen by a majority of followers because Twitter would block it from being shared broadly.

4. Twitter allowed bots on the site to push stories and manipulate the masses.

FAKE NEWS-FAKE STATS=> Half of NY Times, WaPo and Guardian Traffic Is CHINA BOTS!

5. Twitter allows and promotes nasty commenters and gives them priority in conservative tweet responses.  We’ve noticed this for years.   When President Trump would tweet sometimes all of the first ten responses were negative.  Hillary paid for a group of nasty individuals to do this and it was obvious Twitter gave them and people like them priority.

Thank You, Donald Trump!… Hillary’s Nasty Paid Internet Trolls Get Canned, Go Silent

Leaders of Zuckerberg’s ‘Nonpartisan’ Election Fund ID’d – Obama’s Campaign Manager and Clinton’s Chief Strategist

0

This article was sponsored by Citizens United Productions.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, spent more than $300 million on the 2020 election.

The couple said the money was intended to support a nonpartisan effort to expand voting access, but a simple look at their staff calls this claim into question.

“Rigged” shows just how Zuckerberg and Chan used their money specifically to help Democrats in the 2020 election. It is out now, and you can get your copy here for just $4.99.

In the bombshell documentary, Citizens United President David Bossie revealed a shocking member of the leadership team for the Chan/Zuckerberg initiative.

TRENDING: BREAKING: IT’S OFFICIAL! TWITTER IS SOLD! Twitter Shares Halted Pending News of Sale – Company Sold to Elon Musk for $44 Billion

His name is David Plouffe, and he is best known for serving as campaign manager for Democrat Barack Obama during the 2008 presidential election cycle.

If that was not enough, Plouffe also wrote a book titled “A Citizen’s Guide to Beating Donald Trump.”

Since the initiative was supposed to be nonpartisan, the fact that a member of its leadership team was developing a strategy to take down one of the presidential candidates certainly raises some red flags.

In addition, Bossie said Chan and Zuckerberg wanted to use Plouffe specifically for his strategic mind. Their website listed him as a “strategist in residence.”

The initiative was also connected to Joel Benenson, chief strategist for Democrat Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, Bossie revealed in the film.

If you want to see exactly how Zuckerberg used his money and power to help Joe Biden win in 2020, buy “Rigged” here today.

“You know, it’s a little bit abasing to have an organization staffed by rabidly partisan Democrats … the campaign manager for Barack Obama, the chief strategist for Hillary Clinton,” Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas said.

“You think they know how to spend money? You think they know how to target the money for Democratic turnout? You bet they do.”

In an opinion article for The Washington Times, Bossie said this is exactly what the Chan/Zuckerberg initiative did.

“The group that got the bulk of Mr. Zuckerberg’s money — the Center for Tech and Civic Life — sent some 2,500 grants to government elections offices in 48 states,” Bossie wrote. “Defenders of Mr. Zuckerberg contend that more grants went to Trump areas while conveniently ignoring the fact that the vast amount of money was targeted to critically important areas for Mr. Biden.

“In fact, approximately 160 of the 2,500 grants were for $400,000 or more and totaled a whopping $272 million — and 92% of the money flowed to jurisdictions that Mr. Biden carried.”

“Rigged” exposes Zuckerberg’s plot to tip the scales for Biden in 2020, and it is out now. Get your digital copy here for just $4.99, or you can get both a DVD and a digital copy for just $19.99 today.
