  1. Ouch. Sorry Columbus.

    https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/505449-gop-senators-debate-replacing-columbus-day-with-juneteenth-as-a-federal

    Republican senators are debating whether Juneteenth, a day that commemorates the end of slavery in the United States, should replace Columbus Day on the federal government’s list of official holidays.

    A bipartisan bill sponsored by Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) to make Juneteenth a federal holiday is being held up by an internal Senate GOP squabble.

    Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), an outspoken budget hawk, doesn’t want to add another paid holiday to the calendar.

    Johnson says if Juneteenth is made a federal holiday, another paid federal holiday should come off the schedule. He’s proposing scrapping Columbus Day but is open to eliminating another holiday instead.

    “I’m just saying let’s replace it with something. I chose Columbus Day just because it’s probably the most lightly celebrated and less disruptive to anybody’s schedule” to cut from the calendar of federal holidays, he said. 

    Johnson on Wednesday said “we have an alternate bill” and that he is “talking to some of my colleagues.”

    No, shit, bubbles. You've got fear driven shutdowns, democrat sanctioned riots and self satisfied scumfucks trying to abolish policing and glibly calling anyone that dares disagree with any of their crazy-town antics racist raping transphobes. Anyone satisfied with the state of this country is a Retarded sock monkey like yourself. 

    Karen your idol is the President, go complain to him.

    Deflection? Dog whistle? Some of you people on the left are really fucked up.

    Not to mention disgusting hypocrites because you're constantly brayinging about how much you care about black people.

    BLM has been around for a few year now and you still don't know what they stand for. So whenever you figure that out, your opinion on what they do may matter.  

    What you are going here is the same as complaining about the American Lung Association not doing enough to fight diabetes. 

  4. Well there goes another white house lie. What will be the next excuse for the WP president? Probably go back to one of the old excuses, Trump being a dumbass.

    Top officials in the White House were aware in early 2019 of classified intelligence indicating Russia was secretly offering bounties to the Taliban for the deaths of Americans, a full year earlier than has been previously reported, according to U.S. officials with direct knowledge of the intelligence.

    The assessment was included in at least one of President Donald Trump’s written daily intelligence briefings at the time, according to the officials. Then-national security adviser John Bolton also told colleagues he briefed Trump on the intelligence assessment in March 2019.

    There has been no breakthrough because you've failed to prove anything.  

    Now you've posted something unrelated to the point you've been going on about.  An article about companies boycotting Facebook before the BLM, ADL, and NAACP start a boycott against them has nothing to do with what I've said.  If anything it helps explain JBluhms point on media bias because the squeaky wheel always gets the most grease in this case.  And it's starting to add up.

    Now wrap your head around this, if a company will hire black people if they omit certain college "experience" on their resume, then skin color is not the problem.  It appears to be whether people will fall in line and play nice.  That's not racism.

    The name of the thread is "Facebook is demonstrably meddling in 2020 Election", so yeah it is connected to the thread. Reddit also took some steps today. You keep on grasping at the clubs as the reasons people were over looked. I'll going with the multiple studies that showed there is still bias, instead of a gut feeling.

    None of the retailers I frequent require a mask, if they did I would spend my money elsewhere...Karen.

    My bad, this was for Karen. But I guess it still fits as an answer for you.

    We were talking about making wearing a mask required. If Dewine made it mandatory, I guess you have to drive to another state. That will show them!

    Hey we have a break through! Great. You can admit there was racism 17 years ago, well thank Non Cheetos Jesus that has all changed since then. The new studies may still show there is less racism now, but it just racism against clubs.

    It started as a murmur of dissent, but over the weekend, the campaign to persuade brands to boycott Facebook ads for the month of July turned into a major crisis for the social media giant.

    It began badly on Friday when Unilever, one of the world’s biggest advertisers, announced it was joining the Stop Hate for Profit campaign, which had already been backed by Verizon, Patagonia, and Ben and Jerry’s.

    Coca-Cola and Hershey’s joined the campaign soon after, and throughout Saturday and Sunday, dozens of more companies, large and small, added their names to the list.

    Global drinks giant Diageo, which owns brands like Guinness, Smirnoff, and Johnnie Walker, said Saturday it would stop buying ads on all social media platforms from July 1, and “will continue to discuss with media partners how they deal with unacceptable content.”
