Re: 16-1/2 min video: Stefan Molyneux - 'Shock....

Hello Hobie,

About two weeks ago I ran across an article found at Whatfinger.com written by an attorney, regarding these social media conglomerates censoring anyone they don't agree with and why no one can sue them for censorship or stop them. It all goes back to a bill Congress passed (is now law) before Trump got in office, that allows the mega social media to censor anyone they want. The bill is 47 USC 230 (c)(2). Apparently it was intended to stop people who harass, slander, etc. without the co's being sued for it, but wittingly or unwittingly, it is too broad and is allowing the big social media co's to take the stance of and act as government in censorship, that even government itself and even regular media cannot do. It is denying people Due Process (the right to sue) along with stifling free speech. Also, no entity or individual can act as government. Three unconstitutional crimes here. The thing President Trump must do, according to the article, is get the bill 47 USC 230 (c)(2) repealed. This will stop them because then people will be allowed Due Process and they can sue them. This bill is the reason the CEO's of these social media co's are so arrogant and freely stifle free speech with no consequences or accountability. Remove that and they will go up in smoke.

The second issue I'd like to talk about is the Manafort roll over deal with Mueller. The media hype that Manafort has something about Trump that Mueller can use, and is the real reason he is rolling over, is all hogwash. No truth to it. As I was reading about the deal Manafort made with Mueller, Manafort appears to be solely concerned about his family, so he gave up four properties in exchange for being allowed to keep two properties for his family's safety and well being....part of the deal with Mueller. But Mueller has a long track record of blackmailing defendants with threats to their families. He blackmailed Gen. Flynn by telling him he was going after Flynn's son. Flynn pled guilty to something he did not do, and went bankrupt in legal defense fees, to protect his son. Mueller attempted to blackmail Trump by saying he was going after Don Jr. But Trump has enough money to fight Mueller to defend his son. Mueller backed off. I truly believe that Mueller blackmailed Manafort the same way, using same dirty tactic, and Manafort saw the writing on the wall. Although Manafort is wealthy, he isn't wealthy enough to keep from going bankrupt in continuously fighting off Mueller, so he rolled over. This is how Mueller gets convictions....on anything he can snatch on to, using his blackmail threat technique.

Turning the Ukraine into Russia. The media I notice is constantly insinuating that the Ukraine is Russia. Anyone who can look at a map can see this is not true, the two are separate. Although Manafort was lobbying for the Ukraine legally, he failed to register with FARA. It's known that half of DC who does business in foreign countries don't bother registering with FARA. That doesn't mean they are involved in intrigue, they are just doing business overseas. Didn't Hillary do business with Russia, on the uranium deal and Rosenstein sign off on it and Mueller delivered the sample personally? Gee, did they register with FARA? Hmmm. So Mueller got Manafort for not registering with FARA....big deal. But the media is turning it into Manafort consorting and colluding with Russia (mind you, media thinks the Ukraine is Russia) and 8 years later he worked on Trump's campaign a whole three months so therefore Trump is somehow colluding with Russia through Manafort!?! Yes, the media is holding court, trying Manafort and Trump themselves, stretching, pulling, hoping, praying, (to the devil of course) that they can get rid of Trump. "Oh! Manafort must have something about Trump because Manafort is rolling over, otherwise he wouldn't have.".......wrong.
