Soooo........under their 'community standards' banner shouldn't twitter be obliged to also hide comments calling for the destruction of Israel by Iranian leaders?........ Cruz calls for criminal investigation of Twitter Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), in a letter Friday to the Justice and Treasury departments, is calling for a criminal investigation of Twitter over allegations the company is violating U.S. sanctions against Iran. |

And at the bottom of that. Flashback: Cruz talked to Axios' Dan Primack on the Pro Rata podcast last year to discuss allegations that major tech platforms are biased against conservatives.Most likely because conservatives can't/don't drive innovation (in fact they mainly have the opposite effect). ;-) |

I thought that the USA was a democracy?Common misconception. Democratic Republic. So between elections it is a dictatorship. 😉 |

How Democratic is the USA, when you consider that one of the definitions is majority rule, and that doesn't apply for the election of the President. And do you really want to be mixed up with all the other countries that say they are democratic republics. Algeria, Congo-Kinshasa, Ethiopia, North Korea, Laos, and Nepal, or the former German Democratic Republic (east Germany) An alien might just consider the US to be a place to be avoided. |

Guessing that those condemning the "Leader". As with Cuba, China, N. Korea and others, will be sent to "Re-Education Camps".Ted Cruz is proposing just that for the executives at Twitter! |

Supreme Court, in rare late-night ruling, says California may enforce certain restrictions on religious gatherings That's not going to please Trump, California restricting the opening up process and the SCOTUS agreeing with them. |

Difference couldn't be more stark. Kind Donald tweeting the shooting starts. Biden paying bail. |

The extreme right wing that doesn't want any government will not allow it. They don't believe in law and will riot and loot to their personal advantage. They will use any excuse to do so. It is the job of the media to report what happens. Unless you think they should be censoring what you see such as Kind Donald's tweets. |

Democrat politicians of who are participating these criminal mobs. Are you able to cite a politician who is participating in a riot? If you are unable to cite an example that is just an unfounded opinion. |

The R- and the D- politicians bicker between themselves whilst the USA burns? Has it really taken 2000 years of evolution to replace the infamous Roman Emperor Nero with instead merely a political mob? Here's hoping for something better, quickly. Only in the USA? Stay safe!!

To keep this discussion useful: Are there any reliable links Stay safe! Martin Edit: The phrase "... of who are participating ..." is badly ambiguous! See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) |

... "Only in the USA?" The recent very prominently in-the-news abuse of guns, prejudice, deaths, and some incredible very inflammatory crude 'comments' by Trump, all add up to a lot of deadly incitement. Time for some cool reflection and making amends? Only in the USA?! Stay safe!! Martin See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) |

Yes Donny's tweeting is certainly fueling both sides of the fire as usual and is only hurrying his progress to his complete breaking of the U.S.. |

"Ask someone who is there....." The ex-husband of my niece is a Chicago Police Officer currently on the front lines of this National 'disturbance', he sums up the rank and file feeling.... "Water cannons, pepper spray, bean bag shotguns, LRAD, whatever it takes ! These are not people protesting what happened in Minnesota. They’re a**holes using it as an excuse to commit property and violent crime. They’re causing Police to get hurt while trying to protect legit people and property. Anyone else that says different is delusional. I’ve been doing this for 23 years. Starting with the Bulls Championships. This Mayor and Superintendent are absent. Her F*** You to the President was the green light to these animals to go and create chaos and anarchy. The p**s poor lack of leadership is disheartening. I’ve given almost a quarter of a century to this City to see these liberals turn it upside down. I hope you’re all happy as they destroy your not so Magnificent Mile. Better there then my neighborhood. Maybe the left wing voters that live there will wake up and see how screwed up Democrats are !" Nobody hates a bad cop more than a good cop........

All a game of running the USA into the ground for the sake of personal profit just as he has already done with his multiple businesses?... Hope not... Only in the USA? Stay safe!!
