The Twitter Files have continued with more and more information coming out on just how extensive the operations were to flat out suppress the 1st<\/sup> Amendment rights of the American people. As Elon Musk said, \u201cAll the conspiracy theories are true.\u201d and he would know. Now we have information that the State Department was also working to suppress anything that made Dementia Joe Biden look bad. Here are the details from the Washington Examiner<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n Watchdog groups have raised concerns over the State Department<\/a> bankrolling a “disinformation” tracking group that is secretly blacklisting and trying to defund conservative media outlets. <\/b><\/p>\n “Nothing is more Soviet than using federal government funding to control speech by choking an independent press,” Adam Andrzejewski, CEO of OpenTheBooks, a taxpayer watchdog, told the Washington Examiner<\/i>. “The federal government is continuing to put its own thumb on the scale to green-light or red-light content in the marketplace of ideas. Using third-party intermediaries to do the dirty work isn’t fooling anyone.” <\/b><\/p>\n I am of the opinion that there is no way to fix the bureaucracy, it has to be destroyed. Take the State Department…PLEASE! The fools, progressives and other assorted \u201cProfessional Diplomats\u201d have never been ones to consider the interests of the United States as a priority. In far to many cases, they have pushed a Globalist\/United Nations agenda that was a direct threat to the United States.<\/p>\n When President Trump came in, his first choice as Secretary of State, Rex Tilman came in and took a chainsaw to the place. Many of the personnel enraged that their preferred choice for President, Felonia von Pantsuit, had lost to President Trump, quit in a huff. Most of the positions were never filled, and no one seemed to notice any diminution of services.<\/p>\n Tilman didn\u2019t last and Mike Pompeo came in and did an excellent job as Secretary of State, with many successful diplomatic missions that actually brought peace to places that haven\u2019t seen any in decades. The Abraham Accords alone should have gotten him a Nobel Prize, but then he worked for President Trump and the Nobel Committee is made up of morons.<\/p>\n When the current incompetent came in, Antony Blinken, things in the State Department appear to have returned to their usual levels of treason and incompetence. This is where the move to suppress the Constitutional rights of American Citizens by the State Department began.<\/p>\n GDI compiles a “dynamic exclusion list” that is said to have at least 2,000 websites on it. The <\/b>Washington Examiner <\/b><\/i>learned<\/a> that it is on this list and a source in the ad industry said <\/b>Breitbart News<\/b><\/i> is on it. <\/b><\/p>\n The disinformation group’s efforts are likely costing news companies vital advertising dollars. GDI, which is led by Clare Melford, former senior vice president for MTV Networks, and Daniel Rogers, says the 10 “riskiest” and “worst” offenders for peddling disinformation are the American Spectator<\/i>, Newsmax, the\u00a0Federalist<\/i>, the American Conservative,\u00a0<\/i>One America News, the Blaze,\u00a0<\/i>the Daily Wire<\/i>, RealClearPolitics, Reason<\/i>, and the New York Post<\/i>. <\/b><\/p>\n Well, it sounds to me that these organizations need to unleash the Lawyers of War on this Global Disinformation Index and the people who run it. They might not be able to get the British office, but the people who are Americans and the offices in the United States? Additionally, going after the State Department for flat out violation of the Constitutional rights of the organizations and the people working there should also be considered.<\/p>\n One advertising company that subscribes to this blacklist is Xandr, a group under Microsoft. Xandr has flagged dozens of conservative websites as “false\/misleading,” “hate speech,” or “reprehensible\/offensive,” <\/b>according to data leaked to the <\/b><\/a>Washington Examiner<\/a> <\/b><\/i>and whistleblowers. <\/b><\/p>\n Microsoft has been far more low key in their political activities since Gates and Ballmer left the company. One reason was nearly being destroyed by an activist judge back in the 90\u2019s. They also learned from Goolag, Faceplant and Twitter 1.0 that getting \u201cIn the face\u201d of people paints a target on them. Well Microsoft, congratulations. It looks like you may have painted a target on yourselves now.<\/p>\n However, GDI has received $330,000 combined from entities under the State Department<\/a>, which led to First Amendment lawyers and members of Congress raising concerns over how this could be legal. <\/b><\/p>\n “I\u2019m a proud conservative and an unashamed advocate for the free market and these documents put to rest the idea that Big Tech’s behavior should not be investigated by Republicans because they are private companies,” Tom Jones, president of the American Accountability Foundation, told the Washington Examiner<\/i>. “American companies gave up the right to be left alone when they got in bed with the federal government. I hope these and other revelations are part of a deep and probing investigation by the United States Congress.” <\/b><\/p>\n It\u2019s one thing to take money from private entities, it\u2019s quite another to take it from a government agency. This make you an \u201cAgent for the Government\u201d and as such, you are bound by the 1st<\/sup> Amendment. As for the State Department? Cut off most of their funding and start slashing payroll.<\/p>\n The State Department’s ties to GDI, or any other groups that participate in the blacklisting of media outlets in the United States, could place the agency in legal trouble, according to lawyers. <\/b><\/p>\n “The GEC in no way moderates content on social media platforms; that is not its mission or its intent,” a spokesperson for the State Department told the Washington Examiner<\/i>. “The role of the GEC is to identify foreign state and nonstate disinformation narratives, trends, and techniques aimed at undermining or influencing the policies, security, or stability of the United States, U.S. allies, and partner nations.” <\/b><\/p>\n Nice try dumbass, but the Twitter Files has shown that the progressive elements of the Federal Bureaucracy, (In other words, just about all of them), wanted President Trump gone and his supporters silenced. If they could get the DoJ and FBI to arrest, or better yet, kill the Deplorable Ultra MAGA Republicans, so much the better.<\/p>\n I started working on this post when I saw the first story about the State Department and GDI working to shut down any opinion that went against the leftist narratives. I mentioned that Microsoft was one of the companies, through an affiliate, Xnder, (Which I know nothing about), that had been using GDI to base their decisions on ad purchases. Microsoft has now started to disassociate themselves from GDI. Here are those details from The Washington Examiner<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n Microsoft<\/a> has removed negative flags for conservative media<\/a> outlets that have blocked them from reaping key advertising dollars amid the corporation launching an internal review and suspending its subscription to a “disinformation” tracking group’s blacklist used to “defund” disfavored speech, according to internal data obtained by the <\/b>Washington Examiner<\/b><\/i>. <\/b><\/p>\n The Microsoft-owned Xandr, a major advertising company, previously abided by a secret blacklist<\/a> of conservative news compiled<\/a> by the Global Disinformation Index, a British organization with two affiliated U.S. nonprofit groups. Now, as Microsoft appears to be taking steps to distance itself from GDI<\/a> , the company has, for the time being, deleted flags such as “false\/misleading” and “reprehensible\/offensive” for right-leaning websites, data show. <\/b><\/p>\n “I just checked in Xandr’s platform again and can confirm that all rejection flags have been removed from domains,” a senior executive in the ad industry, who was granted anonymity to speak candidly, told the Washington Examiner<\/i>. <\/b><\/p>\n One thing about Microsoft, they definitely learned their lesson from the issues they had in the 90\u2019s. They were nearly destroyed by an activist judge, (Who had his head handed to him by the appeals courts as I recall), and had to deal with the EU\u2019s tyranny regarding Internet Explorer. They also made hundreds of millions of Office users ecstatic when they removed the hated office assistant, Clippy from the Office application.<\/p>\n Xandr had labeled 39 conservative domains as, overwhelmingly, “false\/misleading,” the <\/b>Washington Examiner<\/b><\/i> reported<\/a> on Friday. <\/b>Townhall<\/b><\/i>, a website under a Christian publisher called Salem Media Group, was flagged as “reprehensible\/offensive.” <\/b><\/p>\n Some websites that were flagged prior as “false\/misleading” were the Washington Examiner<\/i>, the Daily Wire<\/i>, RealClearPolitics<\/i>, Drudge Report, <\/i>Newsmax, Breitbart<\/i>, the Blaze<\/i>, the Washington Times<\/i>, Judicial Watch<\/i>, and MRC.TV, which is under the Media Research Center. <\/b><\/p>\n First, I\u2019m surprised that the Drudge Report was on the list. As far as anyone knows, Drudge is no longer associated with the site, and it\u2019s gone all Woke and Progressive. Their page views have cratered as people who used to read Drudge daily, (and this includes myself), moved over to the Bongino Report<\/a>. Other then the Drudge Report\u2019s questionable addition to the list, every single one of the others is considered a news site with a conservative bent to it. They also have a \u201c10 least risky sites.\u201d Care to guess who they consider to be the \u201cLeast Risky?\u201d<\/p>\n GDI has claimed that the 10 “least risky” websites are NPR, <\/b>ProPublica<\/b><\/i>, the <\/b>Associated Press<\/b><\/i>, <\/b>Insider<\/b><\/i>, the <\/b>New York Times<\/b><\/i>, <\/b>USA Today<\/b><\/i>, the <\/b>Washington Post<\/b><\/i>, <\/b>Buzzfeed News<\/b><\/i>, <\/b>HuffPost<\/b><\/i>, and the <\/b>Wall Street Journal<\/b><\/i>, according<\/a> to a 27-page report. <\/b><\/p>\n<\/a>The Washington Examiner<\/i> revealed on Thursday<\/a> that the Global Disinformation Index, a British organization with two affiliated U.S. nonprofit groups, is hauling in cash with the intent of defunding and shutting down disfavored speech. Now, several watchdogs are calling out the State Department for funding this group<\/a>, which is feeding its blacklist to major ad companies. <\/b><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
