Biden's White House wanted to control free speech on Facebook
Newly subpoenaed internal notes of meetings between Facebook executives and Biden Admin officials reveal more about the lengths the Biden White House wanted to go to control true speech on Facebook.
Rob Flaherty, President Biden’s then-Director of Digital Strategy, was in constant communication with Facebook to influence content visibility.
In some notes, Rob asks whether Facebook is doing enough to reduce traffic from sites like the NY Post, and whether Facebook could change its algorithm so that users see more posts from the New York Times and less from the Daily Wire.
He said it is important for the government to ensure that platforms (such as Facebook) do not "funnel people towards bad content".
I won't say it's surprising. It's just another example of liberals' arrogance and their confidence that they are doing something good.

🇬🇧 British pensioners should be delivering pizza
Mel Stride, UK Secretary for Work and Pensions, suggests that retired people who are struggling to make ends meet could earn extra cash in the gig economy.
Stride called on companies to take on more of the over-50s, at the same time as reminding more senior members of the workforce that they might have to consider a wider range of jobs if they want tomake ends meet earn some extra money.
That's an interesting way to combat cost of living inflation.

🇬🇧 Finance UK publishes list of phrases that banks should avoid over fears they could be deemed offensive
There is a growing trend for companies and governments to revise their language to be more inclusive.
▪️UK Finance - a trade body for British bankers - has issued a guide on language that bans the term 'black market' and replaces it with 'illegal market', despite it being commonly used for generations.
The guide says the phrase could be seen as racial bias or discrimination. Similarly, suggest the word 'slave' be changed to 'secondary' when discussed in the sector.
The guide has banned 'black hat', a term used in the industry and cyber-security to mean an unauthorized user, with 'unethical' suggested instead.
'Sanity check' is also prohibited, as it may 'infer a level of disability'.
▪️City Hall has also recently revised its language, banning employees from using the phrase 'ladies and gentlemen'.
Civil servants working for the Labour mayor are also barred from describing migrants as 'illegal' and must now call them people with 'insecure immigration status' or 'undocumented'.

🇬🇧More than a third of Brits do not know transgender women are biologically male, poll finds
A recent UK poll has revealed that a large portion of the population misunderstands the term "transgender woman."
▪️40% of the respondents incorrectly defined the term or expressed confusion. 35% believe that a 'transgender woman' is someone who is female from birth.
▪️25-34 year olds understand the terms the least, as only 55% of people in that age group correctly identified a trans woman as someone born male.
▪️Younger people aged 18 to 24 showed a better understanding of the terms, while 62% of those aged 55 or older correctly defined 'trans woman', and around 70% understood what 'transgender woman' meant.
This is exactly what LGBT activists are trying to do. They want to confuse everyone with their terms so that they can push their agenda more easily.
How can you ban trans women from using the women's bathroom when not all people even realize trans women are biological men?

He did a great job of popularizing science, but has since allowed woke ideology to take over.

🚗 Porsche edits giant Jesus statue out of ad, apologizes for offending Christians
High-end car brand Porsche is getting backlash after they released an advertisement that edited out the Cristo Rei - the large statue of Jesus Christ that overlooks Lisbon, Portugal - in celebration of 60 years of the Porsche 911 model.
The advertisement without the Jesus statue was deleted from Porsche's YouTube channel and replaced with one with the statue intact. A twitter user pointed out the deletion on Saturday.
"This was a mistake, and we apologize for any offence caused. The original film is online now," Porsche said in a statement.
This 'mistake' took them a lot of time and editing! This war of the West against Christianity is unbelievable.

Media reports that the cocaine in the White House may have belonged to someone in the "Biden family orbit"
The New York Post writes that a bag of cocaine found in the West Wing last month could have belonged to someone in the "Biden family orbit" and that the president allegedly knows who it is.
According to the NYP, security sources say it wasn't Hunter.
Well, they can say what they want. We saw Hunter. We know Hunter. We know whose cocaine it was.

Twitter (X) was fined in relation to Trump's account
Twitter was fined $350,000 for failing to timely provide the government with information related to Donald Trump's account. The company did comply with the order, but it was three days late.
What is striking about this news is not the fine itself, but the fact that the government demanded access to Trump's account. What did they hope to find there? And how scared were they, if they also served a nondisclosure order?

🏳️🌈❌ World Bank suspends funding for Uganda over anti-gay law
Every country should have the right to decide how it wants to live, right?
No, apparently you are wrong, because the World Bank disagrees with you. Either you agree with what they think is right or you die in poverty.
▪️The World Bank has recently announced it would stop providing new loans to Uganda, after its government banned same-sex relationships.
“Uganda’s Anti-Homosexuality Act fundamentally contradicts the World Bank Group’s values,” the organization said in a statement.
“We believe our vision to eradicate poverty on a livable planet can only succeed if it includes everyone irrespective of race, gender, or sexuality. This law undermines those efforts.”
So far, about $1.7 billion of the more than $4 billion allocated to Uganda by the World Bank has been disbursed. It is now unclear whether the country will see the remainder of the sum. The money was supposed to go towards health, agriculture, roads, energy infrastructure and education.
❗️This is another example of how globalist countries and organizations can impose their "values" on others under the guise of "social and green initiatives."

I want to believe that Uganda's president is as based as he sounds.
“Uganda will develop with or without loans,” he said. “It is, therefore, unfortunate that the World Bank and other actors dare to want to coerce us into abandoning our faith, culture, principles and sovereignty, using money.”
But the truth is that he will probably have to make some concessions and meet the World Bank somewhere in the middle. Or even give in to this (kind of) blackmail.

🇺🇸 US suicides hit an all-time high last year
About 49,500 people took their own lives last year in the U.S., the highest number ever, according to new government data posted Thursday.
The CDC has not yet calculated a suicide rate for the year, but available data suggests suicides are more common in the U.S. than at any time since the dawn of World War II.
This is alarming.
