FORMER BIDEN OFFICIAL NOW WORKING FOR CCP’S TIKTOK – Jamal Brown, the former  Pentagon official and campaign spokesperson for Joe Biden during the 2020 Mass-Mailer Presidential Campaign, is now taking a top position with the CCP’s owned and controlled social media app TikTok.  President Donald Trump was trying to ban TikTok before the mass mailer President reversed the decision.  Now it appears he’s also lending his best minds to help the Communist Party do better harvesting hearts and minds from American teens, for the good of the whole.

ELON MUSK WITH THE LEFT’S MORALITY POLICE – Elon Musk, the alleged champion of free speech who recently bought the social media giant Twitter, has just met with the worst offenders of leftist morality policing, including the ADL, the NAACP, and Color of Change.  He appears to have made an agreement with them to meet some of their concerns, signaling to many Americans his faux commitment to free speech.  The move could potentially alienate the left, who will never get enough, and the right, who have simply had enough.

Civil rights leaders confronted Elon Musk about the uptick of tweets containing racial slurs since he took over Twitter in a virtual meeting Tuesday afternoon….
