‘Economist’ Staffers Flock to Huawei

China's tech giant maintained lucrative relationship with popular British magazine

Huawei hired several alums of the Economist Group after the Chinese tech giant paid the influential magazine to help push its agenda to British and American policymakers.

Huawei, a telecommunications firm that the U.S. government considers a national security risk, has hired five people who used to work at the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), the consulting arm of the popular British magazine. Two of the hires work in senior positions at the tech giant's lobbying and public relations division, using their skills to boost Huawei's image in the West, where suspicions of the company run high due to its ties to Chinese state espionage. Both the Economist magazine and the EIU are controlled by their parent, the Economist Group, and staffers working for each entity can move between them. Andrew Palmer, the current executive editor of the Economist, used to work in the EIU.

Fascism Strikes in Pro-Trump County as School Superintendent Moves to Fire Teachers and Employees Who Attended Trump Rally

On Wednesday, a crowd of American citizens estimated to exceed 100,000 gathered in Washington, DC, to peacefully assemble and listen to a speech from the President of the United States. All but a handful of the attendees dispersed peacefully. Nothing done by the people who carried the demonstration into the US Capitol takes away from the legality and propriety of attending a political rally headlined by the president.

But if you were a teacher in Jefferson County, WV, you just found out that it doesn’t matter if the voters in the county voted overwhelmingly to reelect President Trump, all it takes to put your livelihood in jeopardy is to have a fascistic school superintendent who is totally unacquainted with the US Constitution, and your job is in jeopardy.

Nearly 30 teachers in Jefferson County, West Virginia that attended the rally at the Capitol in Washington DC on Wednesday are now being threatened with termination.

A letter was sent to the teachers by the Jefferson County Superintendent of Schools Dr. Bondy Shay Gibson. In the letter, the teachers are told to report to a meeting on Tuesday, January 12, 2021 where disciplinary action, including termination, will be discussed. The teachers are encouraged to bring a representative with them. The teachers were also told to not enter any Jefferson County School’s property or attend any school activity.​

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey Mocks Parler after Coordinated Big Tech to Take Down His Competition

1e4eb1e1-8f9f-43ef-ae50-4ff7c634ef68-730x487.jpg


Big Tech has been coordinating an attack that is shutting down not just President Donald Trump from every social media platform, but many other people on the right as well, booting them from Twitter. Big Tech is also going after the site they’ve fled to, Parler, after the Twitter crackdown.

Not only are they cool with booting off folks on the right from their site and removing the followers from virtually every right leaning account on Twitter, they’re also cool with their competition being stomped on. Indeed, if we were looking into antitrust questions in the coordination of all this, what Jack just posted would be Exhibit #1 in that action.

Here’s Jack celebrating that instead of Parler being the number 1 App on the App Store, his Signal App private messenger is instead. With a little help from his friends.

He’s basically mocking Parler and people called him out on it.

WATCH: High-Profile Leftists Incite Violence. Social Media Accounts Still Intact

Let’s take a trip down memory lane.

Black Guns Matter founder and 2A activist Maj Toure posted a tweet showing a video montage of several prominent leftists making statements that would sure get a conservative suspended or banned from Twitter or Facebook. The video starts with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) saying that she doesn’t know why there aren’t “uprisings” happening all over the nation.

The video also shows Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) saying, “There’s needs to be unrest in the streets for as long as there’s unrest in our lives.” It even shows failed GOP strategist and founder of the Lincoln Losers organization saying that they will “have to put a bullet in Trump.”

"I have reviewed disturbing videos and photographs posted that tagged you on a public social media page, which included threatening and demeaning statements regarding federal government officials.”

The letters went on to say, “I understand that many community members are upset by these images. Accordingly, I have determined that you are on administrative leave with pay effective immediately pending additional investigation.”

Nothing wrong with investigating.

See, this is the crap right here that Luther claims happens very little with his previous MSM outlets.
Second U.S. Capitol Police officer dies

What would anyone reading that headline think? I assure you they won’t think what the story actually says. The MSM does nothing but manipulate and spit propaganda for the left.

Of course Fox tells the truth. We all know that.

Parler to be Down 'for a while' without AWS, executives say: 'We are clearly being singled out'

CEO John Matze says Big Tech seeking to 'stifle free speech and competition in the marketplace'

Parler will likely go offline for "a while" Sunday evening given Amazon Web Services' decision to suspend the upstart social media platform after Wednesday's U.S. Capitol riot, executives said Sunday.

“We are clearly being singled out,” Chief Policy Officer Amy Peikoff told “Fox & Friends Weekend” one day after Apple suspended Parler from its App Store even as it surged to the No. 1 spot in the free apps section earlier in the day.

CEO John Matze told "Sunday Morning Futures" that the site will try to "get back online as quickly as possible," after writing on the platform that the site may be down for up to a week.

Which one gets banned by Big Tech?

A. Various Chinese Communist Party accounts - Spread disinformation about Covid-19 (Brought to China by the U.S. military & that it originated in Italy), supressor of free speech and democracy to their own people, and holder of tens of thousands of Muslims and Christians in internment camps.

B. Various Iranian Leader accounts - Posts regarding committing genocide against the Israeli people and “Death to America.”

C. Hollywood Elites and others who have posted violent images of the President, wishing death daily upon the President and when he had Covid-19, and those who have posted about raping his wife and beating up his children.

D. President of the United States - Doesn’t think before he posts and can be a moron.

If Big Tech holds one to a standard, they need to hold all to the same standard.

Well, I posted this same quote to my personal Facebook this morning. It didn’t end well. Because I am an educator, I cannot think these thoughts and I better not express these in the classroom. Of course I don’t, but I do have free speech and thought in my personal time.

The person who jumped all over me is a lawyer and said since they are private companies, they can do this and Trump is bad because he is supposed to uphold our Constitution.

The irony of course being that rebellion got us the constitution recognized as a legitimate document.
