Elon Musk's noble crusade to restore free speech to the global public square has so far been everything patriots dared hope for: a declaration of war against our corrupt regime and the censorship required to sustain it.
- Now, it looks like the regime is trying to leverage one of its greatest weapons to nip Elon's Twitter in the bud: the world's largest company, Apple.
- On Wednesday afternoon, Musk tweeted about a meeting with Apple CEO Tim Cook, and indicated there was no danger of Twitter being purged for the time being.
Margaret Richardson
- She never strays into talking about her family or her favorite books or even her favorite vacation spots. She is narrowly and almost pettily partisan.
- The current partisan lib obsession du jour, every time, with ruthless tedium.
- Margaret Richardson (@margaretlr) May 11, 2017
Background:
- After earning dual degrees in law from UC-Berkeley and in public policy from Harvard's Kennedy School, Richardson spent three years working at a free legal clinic in the Bay Area.
- From there, she went to the Obama campaign, and after his election she joined the Justice Department as a top adviser to Eric Holder, eventually ascending to become his chief of staff.
Eric Holder's DOJ
- Holder crushed Arizona's SB 1070 anti-illegal immigration law, claiming it infringed on the sole right of the federal government to enforce (or totally ignore) immigration law.
- Dropped charges against the New Black Panthers who stood outside a Philadelphia polling place and menaced "white devils" with a billy club, since after all it only involved gross white kulaks facing threats and violent intimidation, rather than a member of America's noble caste.
- Holder’s DOJ launched Operation Choke Point, which tried to curtail gun rights by pressuring American banks to deny service to gun dealers on the flimsy pretext that such dealers had a higher risk of fraudulent behavior
- Most disastrous of all, Holder”s DOJ harassed American police departments for their supposedly “racist” policing efforts, pressuring them into consent decrees that paved the way for the urban homicide explosion of the “racial reckoning” era.
- All of this culminated in Holder being found in contempt of Congress for his oversight of Operation Fast and Furious, in which DOJ intentionally allowed more than 2,000 guns to be illegally smuggled to Mexico, one of which was later used in the murder of a Border Patrol agent.
Margaret Richardson is the perfect inverse of the traditional revolving door in Washington
- Richardson represented the "revolving door" metaphor used to describe private sector actors who go into government, enact policies favoring a certain business or industry, then return to the private sector to reap the rewards of their government conduct
- Today, Richardson is chief corporate affairs officer at GoFundMe, another firm notorious for boosting cancel culture
- The very arc of Richardson's career demonstrates what a joke the concept of "Trust and Safety" is
- Elon Musk was well-justified in being suspicious of Apple's app store operation
- If he wants to take an even more powerful third step, here's our suggestion: abolish the "trust and safety" department entirely
