Stick with me plz

Its important to some to use labels of a derogatory nature to isolate and limit impact of beliefs contrary to their own. It seems that individuals/groups that use this type of ploy are unable to truthfully and successfully defend their own beliefs.

Today, 2018, many people have been educated and repeatedly exposed to “thinking” or maybe better put, “seeing” subjects in a briefness of depth. Images and symbols are the subject of communicating. If something contains words, well it better be of a limited number of letters/words. To plunge into an article, isn’t “the thing”. Skim for big words and pictures, if those are absent, read the title and MAYBE the first paragraph (if it is short). Slogans or bumper sticker wording and imagery is best. Think Twitter, Instagram & Tumblr. Short attention span but worse, inadequate ability/skill to honestly reason and form credible thoughts.

Most who come across this won’t read it.

So why write it?

For the 10% who may actually read it.

For the satisfaction of the writer in trying to communicate with others. Hoping in the communicating that they will locate others who are similar in thought/beliefs and if they aren’t similar, still appreciate true diversity of beliefs.

Protect Free Speech in the Digital Public Square

Please sign the Protect free speech in the digital public square

What Alphabet/Google, Apple, Facebook & Twitter are doing is ILLEGAL and they know it but they are doing it anyway with the goal to AID the DEMOCRATS to win the mid-term elections.
Fines of millions, if that happens, means nothing to these organizations.

FISA Court Complicit?

Justice Watch article

“It is disturbing that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance courts rubber-stamped the Carter Page spy warrants and held not one hearing on these extraordinary requests to spy on the Trump team,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.

Yes, you read that correctly. The FISA court, which is a very special and secretive court, willingly rubber stamped each request of surveillance of Carter Page.

National Security Division] FOIA consulted [Office of Intelligence] … to identify and locate records responsive to [Judicial Watch’s] FOIA request…. [Office of Intelligence] determined … that there were no records, electronic or paper, responsive to [Judicial Watch’s] FOIA request with regard to Carter Page. [Office of Intelligence] further confirmed that the [Foreign Surveillance Court] considered the Page warrant applications based upon written submissions and did not hold any hearings.

One of the reasons for the FISA court is to insure the protection of the rights of USA citizens and yet they have a process which a judge can quickly (and apparently repeatedly) approve surveillance of USA citizens without attempting to follow due diligence.

My question is simple, is FISA broken or corrupt?
