*NOTE: YouTube and Twitch have both censored James's content on their platforms lately, over fake "Community Guidelines" violations.
(The Internet) Rand Paul: “The Fr**d Happened” – DS
CLIP 11: ForAmerica on Twitter: "Sen. Rand Paul: "The courts haven't decided the facts. They never looked at the facts... The fr**d happened. The election in many ways was st***n and the only way it will be fixed is by in the future reinforcing the laws."…1:25
Rand is in Homeland Security Committee.
BTW: Clip 12: Grant from Breaking 911 on Twitter: "Florida Gov. DeSantis declines to acknowledge Biden as the [SO-CALLED] president-elect: "It's not for me to do..." "...We were four years with people not accepting [Trump]. I mean, Hillary, the last week of the election, was saying Putin st**e it." … 0:26
Speaking of censorship: Covid vaccine info!
(The Internet) Twitter Announces Mass Censorship of Accurate Vaccine Information
This guy Andre from DS quotes Reuters:
Twitter Inc said on Wednesday that users will be required to remove new tweets that advance harmfully false or misleading claims about COVID-19 vaccinations, in an expansion of its rules on coronavirus misinformation.
The social media company said in a blog post that users could be required to remove tweets with false claims that suggest vaccines are “used to intentionally cause harm to or control populations, including statements about vaccines that invoke a deliberate conspiracy.”
The policy, announced the same week that the first Americans received COVID-19 vaccinations as part of a mass immunization campaign, will also apply to false claims that the pandemic is not real or serious and vaccinations are unnecessary. Twitter said it will also apply to widely debunked false claims about the adverse effects of receiving COVID-19 vaccines.
Conspiracy theories and misinformation about the coronavirus and its potential vaccines have proliferated on social media platforms during the pandemic.
Twitter said that early next year it would start to label or place a warning on tweets with “unsubstantiated rumors, disputed claims, as well as incomplete or out-of-context information” about the vaccines.
A Twitter spokeswoman said the company would determine with public health partners which vaccine misinformation was harmful enough to warrant removal.
Everyone’s mama!
BTW: Twitter suppression served its purpose
Also, this man points out: Dave Rubin on Twitter: "This is incredible. Two weeks before the election Twitter changed how you retweet because they obviously didn't want certain things to go viral. Now that they got the result they want, they're going back to the old way. Big tech is manipulating us in ways we can't imagine.…” And he shares a screenshot showing Twitter’s statement.
It’s just like what they accused DeSantis’s admin of doing in FL with allegedly artificially suppressing Covid death toll numbers — same timing!
Tom Cruise a mess?
Side note: Tom Cruise Applauded for Going Full Mask Psycho
(Drudge) PAPER: Cruise has SECOND meltdown on set...Five crew members quit... (The Sun)
Sleazy foreign tabloid The Sun revealed told how the actor let rip after two crew breached Covid rules by standing too close together.
Another eruption followed on Tuesday night as news of his rant emerged.
A source said: “The first outburst was big but things haven’t calmed since. Tension has been building for months and this was the final straw. Since it became public there has been more anger and several staff have walked.
“But Tom just can’t take any more after all the lengths they have gone to just to keep filming at all. He’s upset others aren’t taking it as seriously as him. In the end, he’s the one who carries the can.”
Delays have blighted the franchise’s seventh instalment.
Tom Cruise, 58, who plays Ethan Hunt and is a producer, has pumped a fortune into Covid measures including hiring a cruise ship so staff can isolate.
In October, he held crisis talks with director Christopher McQuarrie days after 12 people on set in Italy were said to have tested positive.
Since returning to the UK two weeks ago, Cruise has been pictured wearing a mask on set.
In his first rant, he warned the 50-strong crew they’d be “f***ing gone” if they ignored guidelines.
He also told staff at Warner Bros. Studios, Herts: “We are creating thousands of jobs you motherf*****.”
A source said: “Tom has taken it upon himself to try to enforce precautions with a view to keeping the film running.”
But Spencer MacDonald, of entertainment union Bectu, said: “After a very difficult year for freelancers working in the industry the last thing crews deserve is a multi-millionaire Hollywood star screaming abuse and threatening their jobs.”

I still sometimes check Drudge.
I regularly check The Epoch Times, particularly on the election, since they’re seemingly the only ones staying with reality.
I of course like Revolver.news
I’m often on Twitter, following Real Donald Trump, Cernovich, M. Tracey, Scott Adams Says, and others. There are a lot of interesting and edgy less prominent accounts too.
I do like to check out The Internet. AA has some interesting info and takes on DS.
I kinda like Telegram. I check in on what Real Vincent James is saying.
I get leftist email news morning updates from female-run outlet TheSkimm, and from CNN’s Five Things. I also get The Epoch Times email updates.
On rare occasion, I’ll check Real Clear Politics, and sometimes the far-left Mediaite.
I used to check Heavy quite a bit for viral human interest news, although they seem much less exhaustive in their info in the few more recent articles I’ve seen—more liberal biased and selective.
