Daily News Brief for Wednesday April 20th, 2022

So Biden told Obama that he is planning on running in 2024, and he probably has already forgotten that… Microsoft, Apple, and Google are in bed with the FBI, nothing new…and the federal transportation masks mandate was illegal this whole time, but who cares.

Schumer is glad the Johnson amendment does apply anymore! Actually the liberals never followed that rule, only conservative Christians are silly enough to separate pulpit and politics.

DOJ secretly spied on Apple and Google accounts of Project Veritas and its security detail

https://reclaimthenet.org/doj-spied-project-veritas-apple-google-accounts/

According to ReclaimtheNet:

“Just a few weeks after Microsoft revealed that President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) has been secretly spying on investigative reporting outlet Project Veritas, Apple and Google have revealed that they were also subject to secret surveillance orders that required them to hand over information from the professional and private accounts of Project Veritas and its security detail.

Apple and Google received nine secret subpoenas and warrants from the DOJ between November 2020 and March 2021. These secret subpoenas and warrants required these tech companies to hand over information about Project Veritas and its security detail. The DOJ also compelled Apple and Google not to disclose that they were secretly providing this private information to the government.

Google provided highly sensitive personal information on several Project Veritas employees to the DOJ including their payment information, browsing history, and device media access control (MAC) address (which can be used to identify devices and track their activity).

Two of the DOJ’s subpoenas demanded highly sensitive personal information on two Google accounts, one of which was connected to a separate non-Google email address. These subpoenas demanded the account holders’:

Names

Addresses

Primary and alternate telephone numbers

Primary and alternate email addresses

Social security numbers

Records of session times and durations

Records of any internet protocol (IP) addresses used by the subscriber at the beginning, end, and at any time during these sessions (which can be used to monitor a subscriber’s location and their web browsing activity)

Browser and operating system information

Device media access control (MAC) address

Means and source of payment for services (including any credit card or bank account numbers)

Account notes and logs, including any customer-service communications or other correspondence with the subscriber

Length of service (including start date) and types of service utilized

Investigative files or user complaints concerning the subscriber”

These people are crazy. 

CNN+ looks doomed

https://www.axios.com/discovery-cnn-plus-marketing-layoffs-jobs-b088c03c-b202-4756-8f5f-e64ee77b5095.html

CNN+ launched on Tuesday, March 29 and According to Axios:

“Warner Bros. Discovery has suspended all external marketing spend for CNN+ and has laid off CNN's longtime chief financial officer as it weighs what to do with the subscription streaming service moving forward, five sources tell Axios.

CNN+ executives were originally hoping to attract 2 million subscribers in the first year and 15-18 million over four years, as Axios has previously reported.

Around $300 million has been spent and hundreds of jobs have been created to support the service.

CNN's original plan was for CNN+ to become profitable in four years by investing $1 billion into the service.

CNN+ has roughly 150,000 subscribers so far.”

That has to be low, because according to Sensor Tower, CNN+ received only 18,000 downloads on day one, and it is averaging about 9000 per day. 

Just look at the money the liberals are throwing at their technology and content. Our network, by the grace of God, has, compared to CCN, drop in the bucket money and we are getting more listens per month than CNN+ right now. This is why we implore you to join the club and support what we are doing, because as we build our club memberships, we really have an opportunity to take over mainstream media in this new digital media world. 

Kansas' Governor Just Vetoed Transgender Bill That Bans Men From Competing In Women's Sports

https://notthebee.com/article/kansas-governor-just-vetoed-transgender-bill-banning-men-from-competing-in-womens-sports

According to Not the Bee:

“The Republican legislature in the state of Kansas just passed a bill that would ban men who claim to be transgender from competing against actual women in sports.

These sorts of bills have been passed in many conservative states and Kansas has joined that list of states where Republicans are actually using their legislative powers to fight back in the culture war.”

And the New York Times reports:

“Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly shot down two hotly debated Republican bills — one banning transgender athletes from girls' sports, and another forcing schools to let parents challenge classroom curriculum — setting up a fierce campaign conflict for the first-term governor who faces re-election in November.

"We all want a fair and safe place for our kids to play and compete," the Democrat wrote in a Friday veto message on the trans athlete ban. "However, this bill … came from politicians trying to score political points."

What? It is amazing to me, that women politicians are vetoing these bills. Doesn’t she know she is a woman? This shows you that sin is blinding, illogical, and destroys itself. 

Chocolate Knox gave an explanation on Jason Whitlock’s show Fearless on some of the cultural problems at play with free speech and transgenderism:

Hi all, this is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Monday, April 18th, 2022. I hope you all had a wonderful Easter with you and yours’ so let’s see what happened with the news while we were away. 

First, in his last news brief on Friday, Pastor Toby Sumpter went over a new abortion ban bill that has been signed in Oklahoma. Well later that same day, Florida Governor Ron Desantis got in on the action as well, by signing House Bill 5, which bans abortions after the 15-week mark. 

https://www.npr.org/2022/04/14/1084485963/florida-abortion-law-15-weeks

Governor DeSantis released a statement saying: “House Bill 5 protects babies in the womb who have beating hearts, who can move, who can taste, who can see, and who can feel pain. Life is a sacred gift worthy of our protection, and I am proud to sign this great piece of legislation which represents the most significant protections for life in the state's modern history."

The new Florida law, which takes effect July 1, will replace a previous one that allowed abortions until 24 weeks of pregnancy.

The new 15-week ban does not make exceptions for cases of incest, rape or human trafficking. It does allow an abortion if it would save the life of a pregnant person or prevent serious injury to them.

Yeah, believe it or not, it’s not okay to murder a baby just because the child was created through terrible circumstances. 

Now of course, murderous dictator, or rather, Planned Parenthood President Alexis McGill Johnson, had to release her own statement, saying: "We've entered a dangerous time for Floridians' reproductive freedom. In just a few months, thousands of pregnant people in Florida will no longer be able to access the care they need without leaving their state. The supporters of this bill have put their own political ambitions and beliefs before the health and futures of their constituents."

I think the term or phrase you’re looking for Alexis, is “the supporters of this bill want to save babies from being slaughtered.” 

Now, it should be noted that this bill definitely doesn’t go far enough. Until all abortions are made illegal in this country, at ANY period, not just the 15-week mark, but, the winds seem to be shifting in a favorable direction, across the country. Our nation needs to fall on it’s knees in repentance to our creator, but our nation’s pride refuses to buckle. It’s comical really, as we’ve all seen how prideful nations’ end up in the Bible… 

Speaking of which, Not so long ago, the American dream was alive and well. Employees who worked hard were rewarded, and employers looked for people who could do the job, not for people who had the right political views.  RedBalloon.work (www.redballoon.work/flf/) is a job site designed to get us back to what made American businesses successful: free speech, hard work, and having fun.  If you are a free speech employer who wants to hire employees who focus on their work and not identity politics, then post a job on RedBalloon.  If you are an employee who is being censored at work or is being forced to comply with the current zeitgeist, post your resume on RedBalloon and look for a new job.  www.redballoon.work/flf/, the job site where free speech is still alive!

Musk says Twitter board will be paid nothing if he acquires the company

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/04/18/musk-twitter-board-will-be-paid-nothing-if-he-acquires-the-company.html

Elon Musk said Monday that Twitter’s board of directors won’t be compensated for serving if he acquires the company.

“Board salary will be $0 if my bid succeeds, so that’s ~$3M/year saved right there,” Musk said in a tweet.

https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1516056299376623626?s=20&t=z3XQXE3sYv2qJjpRDIRjAA -Show Tweet

It’s not clear who would be appointed to serve the board of a Musk-owned Twitter. Currently, Twitter spends about $2.9 million in cash and stock awards to board members, according to a filing with the SEC. Executives do not receive additional compensation for their seats, so that does not include payments for CEO Parag Agrawal and former chief Jack Dorsey.

As Toby reported on Friday, Elon Musk made a $43 billion bid for Twitter. In response, Twitter adopted a limited duration shareholder rights plan, often referred to as a “poison pill,” in an effort to fend off a potential hostile takeover. This “poison pill'' is basically a limited duration shareholder rights plan that would allow shareholders to buy stock at a discount if any one person or entity amasses at least 15% of outstanding common stock without the board’s prior approval. Musk recently revealed a more than 9% stake in the company before his takeover bid.

Musk may also be considering a potential tender offer to Twitter shareholders to take control of the company.

Musk has argued Twitter needs to be “transformed” into a private company so it can become a forum for free speech. He also said that Twitter’s board members’ interests “are simply not aligned with shareholders” and that the board “owns almost no shares” of the company.

Even former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey has gotten in on the action, as he criticized the company’s board in a series of tweets on Sunday. 

Responding to another Twitter user describing the “plots and coups” that played out early on in the history of Twitter’s board, Dorsey replied, “it’s consistently been the dysfunction of the company.”

https://twitter.com/jack/status/1515549577352564740 -Show Tweet

Earlier, he responded to another tweet in the same thread. It quoted venture capitalist Fred Destin citing what he called a “Silicon Valley proverb”: “Good boards don’t create good companies, but a bad board will kill a company every time.”

Dorsey responded, “big facts.”

Dorsey still sits on Twitter’s board but plans to leave once his term expires at the 2022 meeting of shareholders, which is scheduled for late May.

Cori Bush surpasses $300K spent on private security as she continues calls to defund the police

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/cori-bush-surpasses-300k-spent-private-security-she-continues-calls-defund-police

Bush’s campaign has dropped another $70 thousand on private security in 2022 alone… and it’s only April by the way… 

Bush's newest security checks follow the $233,663 her committee spent on the services in 2021, FEC records show. She has now paid out $304,152 for security this election cycle.

Here’s a brief clip of her talking saying the part that she shouldn’t say outloud: https://twitter.com/i/status/1423257378993147907 -Play Video

Now, if what she said is true, and there have been attempts made on her life, then that’s terrible… but who is she going to call exactly if another attempt were to occur? Untrained social workers who definitely don’t have the capabilities to deal with a dangerous individual? No, she wants the police gone for us plebeians, but she can rely on her $300 thousand security team. 

So this begs the question… do our African American brothers and sisters really want the police defunded? Well according to a 2020 Gallup poll, in the height of Black Lives Matter, which by the way, we don’t hear that phrase much anymore, because the mob has shifted focus on sexually grooming our kids, but anyways, the poll said When asked whether they want the police to spend more time, the same amount of time or less time than they currently do in their area, most Black Americans -- 61% -- want the police presence to remain the same. This is similar to the 67% of all U.S. adults preferring the status quo, including 71% of White Americans.

Meanwhile, nearly equal proportions of Black Americans say they would like the police to spend more time in their area (20%) as say they'd like them to spend less time there (19%).

https://news.gallup.com/poll/316571/black-americans-police-retain-local-presence.aspx - Screen Capture first graph

You see, Cori Bush really isn’t listening to those in her communities. Because believe it or not, more of a police presence, typically means, less criminals roaming the streets… who’d have thought?

Back to race relations… Public Library Hosts a Dance Class for the Elderly — No Whites Allowed

https://redstate.com/alexparker/2022/04/17/public-library-hosts-a-dance-class-for-the-elderly-no-whites-allowed-n551605 

Doesn’t that just warm your heart? These days — not wholly dissimilar to seventy years ago — segregation is all the rage.

And at Wisconsin’s Madison Public Library, they’re keeping things contemporary.

Therefore, the library’s offering an elderly Movement & Meditation class with a ban on white people.

Per an online announcement, sessions will be held in May at both Goodman South Madison Library and Meadowridge Library.

Here’s what the nonwhites will enjoy:

Movement & Meditation is a movement class where elements of mindfulness and movement intersect for one hour! … Adaptable movements will be shared for all abilities. … Notebooks and writing materials will be provided. This is an invitation to get to know your community while learning more about dance, movement and mindfulness.

The library evidently takes the increasingly popular position that “community” regards those who share a shade of skin.

And as for getting to know one’s “community,” that might include transgender individuals:

All identities, skill levels, and capabilities are encouraged and welcomed.

But if you identify as white, it’s a no-go:

This program is intended for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) seniors 55+. Space is limited, so register to reserve your spot…

For those of you who don’t know what BIPOC means, you’re a bigot and you’re triggering me, where’s Kyle from the Bee when you need him? 

The Caucasian-free foray is “presented by KLJ Movement.” The end of each class “will include time for reflection and connection.” Might anyone reflect on the idea that segregation is antithetical to much-needed national unity?

It’s doubtfully on the docket. But at least they’ll be connecting — with the past:

https://twitter.com/realchrisrufo/status/1319673465809453058?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1319673465809453058%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Falexparker%2F2022%2F04%2F17%2Fpublic-library-hosts-a-dance-class-for-the-elderly-no-whites-allowed-n551605 -Neil, can you show these in a side-by-side? 

Moving on, it’s time for this day in history. By the way, my mom called me out for not mentioning her birthday last Monday while doing on this day in history, so happy belated birthday mom! Love you! What a great son I am… anyways, On to a big day in our nation’s history, April 18th, American Revolution: George Washington issues General Order announcing the end of hostilities with Britain, giving thanks to the Almighty, and offering congratulations and authorizing an extra ration of alcohol to the troops to celebrate. I have a feeling Washington would have an aneurysm seeing the state of our nation. Earlier in that same week, on April 11th, 1783, Hostilities formally cease in the American Revolutionary War, and on the 15th, the Continental Congress ratified preliminary articles of peace, ending the seven-year-long war with Great Britain.

The Podcast Ninja (Luke) is at the table today.  We begin by talking about how much fun comedian's have when they're driving about 10 hours, to and from a show. 

Then, the Peaches reminds John about how wrong he was two episodes ago... (Remember when John was wrong, Neighbor?) But she's actually trying to make him feel better by sharing something that convicted HER lately:  CS Lewis had a different perspective on Emotionalism than we typically have on this podcast!

Please enjoy some quotes from The Abolition of Man.

"[People who are wrong] see the world around them swayed by emotional propaganda — they have learned from tradition that youth is sentimental — and they conclude that the best thing they can do is to fortify the minds of young people against emotion. My own experience as a teacher tells an opposite tale. For every one pupil who needs to be guarded from a weak excess of sensibility there are three who need to be awakened from the slumber of cold vulgarity. The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles but to irrigate deserts. The right defence against false sentiments is to inculcate just sentiments. By starving the sensibility of our pupils we only make them easier prey to the propagandist when he comes. For famished nature will be avenged and a hard heart is no infallible protection against a soft head."  --CS Lewis

John doesn't think we have been guilty of downplaying emotions.  BUT, his young grandson recently confessed to feeling guilty about liking video games, so...

What do you think, Neighbor? Are Christians accidentally creating hard hearts, as a remedy for soft heads?  Or are we doing a decent job passing on an appreciation for objective beauty and majestic music and passionate poetry?
