Legal protection from prosecution for Internet platforms is predicated upon their behavior as platforms for free speech, and their abstention from acting as private publishers. Facebook claims it acts as a platform, but in recent court documents, it admits that it is a publisher, opening itself up to liability for the material it publishes. Internet journalist, Laura Loomer, filed a defamation lawsuit against Facebook after the social media giant shut down her account and branded her a “dangerous individual trafficking in hate.” Facebook’s court document states, “Under well-established law, neither Facebook nor any other publisher can be liable for failing to publish someone else’s message.” Chadwick Moore summed it up by saying, “Facebook just admitted in a federal document that they are, indeed, a publisher, not a platform, and they are demanding First Amendment protections from Laura Loomer’s defamation lawsuit…. This means, Mark Zuckerberg lied to Congress.” Loomer recently wrote on Telegram, “according to Facebook, Trump supporters are more dangerous than ISIS.” She then added “Facebook banned me and labeled me a ‘dangerous individual,’ but they are creating pages for ISIS terrorists.” -GEG
Facebook admitted in court that it is a private publisher, not a free platform, proving its conservative critics correct.
Conservative pundit Chadwick Moore tweeted an article by tech blog ReclaimTheNet, writing, “Facebook just admitted in a federal document that they are, indeed, a publisher, not a platform, and they are demanding First Amendment protections from Laura Loomer’s defamation lawsuit.” The upshot: “This means, Mark Zuckerberg lied to Congress.”
The lie in question was when Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg told congress that “We’re a tech company, not a publisher.”
The lawsuit was brought by controversial provocateur Laura Loomer for having been deplatformed by Big Tech because she was “a dangerous individual trafficking in hate.”
In the motion, Facebook said that “to the extent Ms. Loomer’s claim targets Facebook’s decision to deactivate her accounts, it is also deficient. Under well-established law, neither Facebook nor any other publisher can be liable for failing to publish someone else’s message.” Read full article here…
John Sullivan, the man who has a history of inciting violence and who was seen urging demonstrators to violence inside the Capitol, appears to have been denounced by Black Lives Matter, leading critics to wonder if the denunciation is a public-relations gesture or if he is working for a government agency.
The CDC, when contacted by the Courier-Press, weighed in on Skelton’s claims — not by casting doubt on them, but by endorsing vaccination for COVID-19 and saying side effects “tend to be mild to moderate and go away quickly.”
Matt Aitchison says a new law in California, SB 1079, will result in the State entering the real-estate-foreclosed home business, which essentially removes competition from investors, and could ultimately socialize real estate as a whole. He warns that this policy may spread to other Democrat-run sates.
After the event in the Capitol last week, Deutsche Bank AG announced it is terminating business with President Trump. American Express, MasterCard, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Stripe are cutting ties with Trump and other Republicans who opposed the 2020 election results favoring Joe Biden.
Dr. Martin said that Americans have been forced us to participate in a clinical trial that violates the Federal Trade Commission Act that forbids the promotion of the treatment or prevention of disease by an untested medical technology.
John Bush is co-organizing a 5-day event with many expert speakers focusing on practical steps toward personal liberty and decentralization. It will be live-streamed for free, January 25th – 29th, 2021.
John Sullivan, the founder of InsurgenceUSA, who is affiliated with Black Lives Matter and held an anti-Trump rally just before the the event at the Capitol, was at the scene when Ashli Babbitt was shot. He shouted that she was dead, and the analyst said it was to perhaps cause a violent reaction by Trump supporters.
Dr. Gregory Michael, 56, died 16 days after being vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine. Pfizer says they don’t believe that there is any direct connection to their vaccine. Dr. Michael’s wife said that he was a vaccine advocate. She believes his death was 100% linked to the vaccine as there is no other explanation.
A wall, which Democrats previously claimed doesn’t work, and is racist, now surrounds the Capitol building. As many as 15,000 troops were deployed. Big Tech platforms are banning all content with the phrase ‘Stop the Steal’ as no one is allowed to question the fraudulent presidential election results.
ABC News said the leftist protesters “gathered” when they stormed the Hart Senate building in 2018. This week, however, ABC wrote that Capitol Hill pro-Trump protesters were a “mob” who “broke into the Capitol” via an “invasion,” quoting DC Mayor Muriel Bowser as saying it was “textbook terrorism.”
Before the presidential election, Project Veritas recorded PBS attorney Michael Beller, saying that, if Biden loses, people should “Go to the White House and throw Molotov cocktails…” and that “Even if Biden wins, we go for all the Republican voters, Homeland Security will take their children away…”
Jack Ma, the 56-year old former English teacher who founded the $500-billion powerhouse e-commerce conglomerate Alibaba, the Amazon of Asia, has not been seen in public for two months after criticizing central bankers.
Brazilian official Ernesto Araujo, a fierce opponent of globalist ideologies, wrote, “globalism replaces socialism as a preparatory stage for communism.”
18-year-old Helena Duke was profiled by Buzzfeed News for publicly outing her own mother, aunt, and uncle after she saw them in a photo from the Capitol. Her family members all lost their jobs. The girl turned in her own family after her mother forbade her from attending a Black Lives Matter protest earlier this year.
A flyer from InsurgenceUSA promoted a meeting on January 6th in Washington DC to “Dump Trump for Good.” Sullivan tweeted, under the pseudonym Jayden X, that Trump supporters were targeting BLM supporters’ buses and were trying get pictures and addresses of where the leftist group would be staying on the 6th.
Man who claims to be Chansley says he is enrolled as an intel agent in the “super soldier” program of the US Navy. He also says he has worked with or among members of BLM who, until now, did not know he is a government agent.
Founder John Matze said that removing Parler was a coordinated attack by the tech giants to kill competition in the market place. Matze said that all vendors have abandoned Parler, including text message services, email providers and their lawyers.

Facebook detected a data breach that allows hackers to take over a user’s account through a vulnerability in its “View As” feature that lets people see what their own profile looks like to someone else. This allowed hackers to steal access tokens that can be used to take over users’ accounts.
Facebook says the data is in place to “identify malicious actors” (that could mean you if you do not agree with Facebook’s political views) and that it is a process to prevent people from flagging mainstream news as fake. It appears that Facebook is trying to imitate Communist China.
Facebook has agreed to provide the names of French users who are suspected of using so-called hate speech on its platform to the courts when requested. Before this mandate, Facebook only provided identification information for terrorism or cases of violence.
