In case you missed what "respected" democrats are allowed to say without any blowback-----Michigan Democratic Party Chair calls Trump supporters ‘racist’, GOP says comment is ’unacceptable’ - mlive.com
"LANSING, MI -- The chair of the Michigan Democratic Party called supporters of President Donald Trump “racist” and said “silence is not an option” in a statement on police brutality and racial injustices issued this weekend.
In a statement issued Sunday evening, Lavora Barnes said Trump and his supporters are racist.
“If you support Donald Trump, you are a racist.
Here is where it gets tricky and uncomfortable. Donald Trump is a racist, and if being a racist is not a dealbreaker for you, you are the reason Black people are being murdered for being Black,” Barnes wrote in a statement...

This Officer had a Request from a #DefundThePolice Protest - Louder With Crowder
But to actually request police protection for your #DefundThePolice protest...what do you think happens if you actually defund the police? One of the first things that gets cut is non-essential services, like being present for your organized hissy fit. Maybe protest organizers should show the courage of their convictions and request social workers to stand guard. THAT would be fun to watch.
First they came for the shirts.....NYT continues they descent into insanity-----Boogaloo Extremists, Banned From Facebook, and the Hawaiian Shirt - The New York Times
Boogaloo Extremists, Banned From Facebook, and the Hawaiian Shirt - The New York Times"Worn by extremists toting assault rifles, the shirt has gone from dad symbol to battle flag.
At a rally in Olympia, Wa., in April to protest the city's stay-at-home order.
It’s one of the most discussed street styles of the spring: tactical body armor, customized assault rifles, maybe a sidearm and helmet, paired with the languid floral patterns of a Hawaiian shirt.
While it’s not uncommon to see heavily armed white men toting military-grade gear on American streets, the addition of the Hawaiian shirt is a new twist.
It turned up in February at gun rights rallies in Virginia and Kentucky, then in late April at coronavirus lockdown protests in Michigan and Texas.
Think of the shirts as a campy kind of uniform, but for members of extremist groups who adhere to the idea of the “boogaloo” — or, a second civil war in the United States...

Bokhari: The Left Takes Revenge on Facebook for Not Censoring Enough
Bokhari: The Left Takes Revenge on Facebook for Not Censoring Enough:
Corporate elites, spurred on by far-left activists, are punishing Facebook for not doing enough to censor its platform, and have deployed a massive advertising boycott against the platform to force its cooperation.
For those who are familiar with Facebook’s track record, which includes banning prominent conservatives and adding others to Orwellian lists of potential “hate agents,” as well as the reported use of “deboosting” algorithms to reduce the visibility of conservative content, the idea that Facebook isn’t censoring is an extraordinary suggestion.

Using big-corp to shut free speech down. Worked for Adolf!-----Ford, Johnny Walker, Breyers, Clorox, Coke Join Effort to Force Facebook to Censor Conservatives | Frontpagemag
Ford, Johnny Walker, Breyers, Clorox, Coke Join Effort to Force Facebook to Censor Conservatives | Frontpagemag"...Coke, Ford, and some of the biggest multinational brands pressuring Facebook to censor conservatives is boring.
And so the noose tightens.
To paraphrase Lenin, we're the ones buying the rope with which they're strangling us.
The exodus of major advertisers from Facebook continues to grow as the company weathers criticism over its handling of racist, violent and other hateful rhetoric on the platform.
That's media speak for conservative content and material from President Trump.
On Monday, Ford became one of the latest companies to pause social media advertising when it announced a 30-day halt. Another major brand, Pepsi, is reportedly weighing a similar move, following Starbucks, Coca-Cola, Unilever and dozens of other brands shifting their ad dollars away from Facebook.The brands said they are standing up against hate speech. Clorox, for instance, said it will stop all advertising on Facebook through December because "we feel compelled to take action against hate speech."...
Unilever comprises everything from Breyers to Dove to Lipton and a whole lot of others.
Diageo has also recently joined.That covers Johnny Walker, Guiness, and a whole lot of other liquour brands.
The odds are good that 75% of the brands you will encounter while visiting your local supermarket are in on this boycott."

Musk Urges COVID-19 Retests Due to 'Ridiculous Number' of False Positives
Musk Urges COVID-19 Retests Due to 'Ridiculous Number' of False Positives"Elon Musk is urging anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19 to undergo another examination due to a "ridiculous number" of false positives.
The billionaire technologist, who spearheads electric car company Tesla and rocket firm SpaceX, voiced his opinion about the infectious respiratory disease on social media today, asserting that hospitalizations and death rates are currently declining.
..."This is a big part of why C19 positive tests are going up while hospitalizations and mortality are declining. Anyone who tests positive should retest," he added.

Yeah, it's the "boogaloos" causing all the damage and dissension in America---No wonder NYT readers are nuts!-----Facebook Bans Network With ‘Boogaloo’ Ties - The New York Times
Facebook Bans Network With ‘Boogaloo’ Ties - The New York Times"Facebook said on Tuesday that it took down a network of accounts, groups and pages connected to an antigovernment movement in the United States that encourages violence.
People and groups associated with the decentralized movement, called boogaloo, will be banned from Facebook and Instagram, which Facebook also owns, the company said. Facebook said it had removed 220 Facebook accounts, 95 Instagram accounts, 28 pages and 106 groups as a result of the decision.
It is also designating boogaloo as a dangerous organization on the social network, meaning it shares the same classification as terrorist activity, organized hate and large-scale criminal organizations on Facebook.
As a result, Facebook said it would ban people and organizations linked to boogaloo, and remove content that praises, supports and represents the movement.
...On Monday, Reddit said it was banning roughly 2,000 communities from across the political spectrum that attacked people or regularly engaged in hate speech, including “r/The_Donald,” a community devoted to President Trump...
