The Blaze: 'Dangerous, offensive, disgusting': Senator Tim Scott crushes 'The View's' race-baiting words about him being the 'exception not the rule'
Senator Tim Scott appeared on "The View" to rebut comments made by the show's hosts that he didn't understand what it's like to be black in the US. He called these remarks "dangerous" and "disgusting" and criticized the idea that the only way for a young African-American to succeed in the country is to be the exception. Scott listed several examples of successful African-Americans, including himself, and argued that America can be "measured in generations."

American Thinker: A Daily Beast editor goes full class warrior against Casey DeSantis
Leftists have an oozing class hatred for conservatives, expressed through disdain for America's working classes and their Ivy League counterparts echoing sneering condescension. People like Katie Baker, the Daily Beast Executive Editor, attack Casey DeSantis for wearing a jacket with her husband's slogan. Baker hates those who shop at Walmart and compares Florida, the COVID killer state, to a "Red State big-bin store where it would be retailing for $24.99." Democrats and leftists are blinded by unearned self-love that they always hate conservatives.
Red State: CEO Chris Licht's 'Struggle Session' Apology Highlights CNN's Disarray
Chris Licht, CEO of CNN, faces losing his job as he has lost support from Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav and upset employees with his mission to make the network more objective. Licht gave a platform to former President Donald Trump which angered liberal media. He has since apologized to CNN staffers and intends to stay on the job. Executives at Warner Bros. Discovery believe former CNN CEO Jeff Zucker is waging a proxy war against Licht. Licht was doing the right thing by trying to take CNN back to being a news organization, but he may have underestimated the reluctance of some employees to be dragged away from being an arm of the Democratic Party.
Front Page Magazine: YouTube Stops Censoring "Election Denial" Ahead of Possible 2024 Dem Loss
Google's YouTube has announced that it will no longer remove content claiming that widespread fraud or errors occurred during the 2020 US Presidential election. This change in policy comes as the 2024 election season starts, and the Biden administration polls poorly. Google had previously censored non-leftist views, including those involving global warming, but it now claims to want to "provide a home for open discussion and debate." This reversal of censorship is seen as an attempt to create a safe harbor for the next wave of election denialism but is also politically motivated. There are now two sets of rules—one for conservatives and one for leftists—that depend solely upon politics.

accounts and remove website

The raids were ordered by prosecutors in Munich who suspect the group to be a criminal organization.
