Elon Musk releases more information about the previous Twitter administration.

A major terrorist is in the United States and ready to face justice.

And a personal trainer rips fat culture and Nike.

 

Mush Being Musk

Part IV of the Twitter files was released on Saturday. This one was about what led up to the banning of Donald Trump from Twitter. This one was quite interesting. It was written by author Michael Shallenberger. In included, as usual, screen grabs of chats and E-mails and data dumps.

Here’s what we learned:

•  Michael Shellenberger showed examples of pressure from major outside figures calling on the company to ban the former president.
• Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey was on vacation at the time and that “Twitter’s staff & senior execs were overwhelmingly progressive.”
• The next several tweets showed internal discussions between Roth and other Twitter employees, who Shellenberger shielded by not disclosing their names, that showed Roth and his team were excited about “progress!” that the company was making toward taking action against Trump’s Twitter account.
• Some Twitter employees were worried about what they were doing, calling it “dictatorial”.
• We learned that the shadow banning of Trump started a week before the 2020 election. Oops.
• We found out that the Terms of Service were changed several times with the sole purpose of banning Trump.
• All this was done before the January 6th riot. It’s been proven now that his suspension had the riot.
• Finally, it was shown that Twitter employees were influenced by some big people which include Michelle Obama and the ADL.

These things just keep coming and everything we thought has been proven to be true. The problem is none of this is illegal. No one is going to jail over this. It’s unethical and it did influence the election and maybe they will have some of their privileges taken away, but I don’t see much coming out of this so far.

It’s About Time

In the biggest news this weekend, the terrorist responsible for the Lockerbie bombing in 1988 is finally being released from a Libyan prison and being sent to the United States.

According to the Daily Wire:

The Libyan man suspected of making the bomb that took down a commercial flight over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, killing 270 people, is in U.S. custody after more than three decades, authorities said Sunday.

Details involving Abu Agila Mohammad Mas’ud Kheir Al-Marimi’s handover by Libyan officials were not divulged, but he is due to appear in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia as early as this week. Some 190 of the victims were Americans.

Some details about the story:

• Pan Am Flight 103 was brought down on Dec. 21, 1988, by a bomb placed in the Boeing 747’s cargo hold in what remains the single deadliest terror attack in the history of the United Kingdom. The plane had departed London and was en route to John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York.
• Among the dead Americans were 35 students from Syracuse University.
• Masud was a Libyan intelligence operative who allegedly carried out the attack on the orders of late Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
• In 2003, Gaddafi agreed to a $2.7 billion settlement that provided $10 million to each of the victims’ families.
• As part of the deal, Libya was removed from the U.S. list of governments that supported terrorism.
• Masud has also been linked to a 1986 bombing at a Berlin disco that killed three people.
• Libyan Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, convicted in 2001 for his role in the bombing, is the only person brought to justice in the attack to date.
  • He was sentenced by a Scottish court to 27 years in prison but was released in 2009 after being diagnosed with terminal cancer.
  • He died in Libya three years later.

This is great news. I remember when this bombing happened and it was a terrible tragedy. Hopefully, he’s not given a $7500 bail amount and released right away. This is the Washington DC court system.

This Needs to be Said More Often

This is something that needs to be said more often.

A reality star named Daniel Holmes is in trouble. He stars in the reality show  “Married at First Sight” and is a personal trainer. I do have to point out that he is also a recovering steroid addict.

He posted a picture on Instagram of overweight mannequins modeling plus size Nike workout clothing. He made a post stating:

“Those that say this is empowering are completely delusional. It’s promoting early death. There is no power in that.”

Of course, he was lambasted online. People said he was body shaming. one person even made a comment about his steroid addiction, which is dirty pool since he admitted the problem. He said that his post was taken out of context, but he did not apologize. In fact, he doubled down:

“I’ve done a bit of a scan of all the crazy DMs and got a bit of an overview of what people were saying. And what people were saying was ‘what are people supposed to wear in the gym if they can’t promote overweight activewear.’

“Hey – clothes? It’s just the gym. It’s just a bunch of metal objects that you pick up. You don’t necessarily need to wear a particular brand of clothing to do that. That’s not the issue, it’s when brands start to cater to unhealthy body types — my concern is where does that lead?

“I understand it is quite difficult to lose weight. The steps in order to do it are relatively simple but to execute it is pretty difficult… I worked in the fitness industry for close to 10 years and it isn’t a new subject to me.

“When we have brands that essentially promote this idea to make money, yes, I have an issue with that.”

He’s absolutely correct and good for him for standing his ground. Let’s just hope he doesn’t cave.

Two things about this story:

• I’m glad he’s calling out this body positivity movement.
  • There is no reason to be ashamed of one’s body, even if one is overweight.
  • But it should be that one always wants to improve.
  • There is nothing beneficial to being over weight.
    • It doesn’t look good.
    • It’s extremely unhealthy.
    • People like Lizzo have normalized morbid obesity.
    • Lizzo is not pretty, not attractive and I don’t want to see her in thongs.
  • I said I don’t body shame. That’s not true. I body shame myself. That’s why I go to the gym.
• I’m also thrilled that he called out Nike especially.
  • They are one of the worst corporations in America. They are as bad an Apple and Disney.
  • They make their shoes in China with slave labor.
  • They turn around and sell their shoes to you for $200.
  • They have been caught saying they are a Chinese company.
  • They are woke as sin when in comes to America but will not call out China.
  • They are a big part of the reason the NBA threw fits about all the anti-Chinese sentiment when they took over Hong Kong.

An Alternative

This is a great story and is one of the ways that we can start taking over the culture and the institutions.

According to the Daily Wire:

Country music legend John Rich, conservative commentator Larry Elder, and retired neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson purchased a bank in order to promote American values and oppose cancel culture in the financial system.

The three co-founders and stockholders cleared regulatory hurdles to acquire First State Bank of Elmore City, Oklahoma, the state’s first and oldest bank, and will rename the financial institution Old Glory Bank. According to a press release, the company will “never cancel law-abiding customers for their beliefs or for exercising their lawful rights of free speech.”

Some things about the story:

• Another investor will be William Shine, the former co-president of Fox News and president of Fox Business News, who serves as executive chairman.
• John rich said: “It’s been dismaying to see the political weaponization of the financial system. Old Glory Bank was created to be the full banking solution for folks who still believe in freedom and the greatness of America.”
• Ben Carson said: “Old Glory Bank will serve lower- and middle-income Americans and those Americans that other banks have marginalized and ignored, hard-working patriots who keep this country running every day.”
• People will be able to round up to the nearest dollar and determine what charity the bank would donate to.
• It will be backed by the FIDC.
• The venture comes as established financial institutions grow increasingly hostile toward free expression. PayPal, which has deplatformed multiple organizations and commentators for their political views, unveiled a change to its acceptable use policy two months ago that would have banned the promotion of “misinformation” and drawn $2,500 penalties from account holders deemed to be in violation.
• Other companies, such as Amazon, Twitter, and Facebook, have sanctioned conservatives over their positions on controversial social issues, including transgenderism, vaccine mandates, and homosexuality.
• GoFundMe seized millions raised for trucker protests in Canada earlier this year.
• Google began suppressing search results for crisis pregnancy centers.
• Companies like American Express, Visa and Mastercard are reclassifying gun purchases. This is in preparation to ban gun purchases with these cards. We’re already seeing this with smaller credit card companies.

I hope this bank goes national and more people go out and do this. This is how woke companies will go away. People don’t want to be lectured every time they want to buy something or do some business.
