Wednesday, April 4, 2018

And another day comes to a close:

“When you see something that is not right, something that is not fair, something that is not just, you have a moral obligation to say something, to do something. You cannot be quiet.” -- John Lewis

Today marks the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. “We’re not where we’re supposed to be.”

Millions of viewers of Sinclair stations have no idea that they’re watching conservative editorials rather than normal local news — giving the company incredible power to persuade viewers. Sinclair reaches 40 percent of households — and soon will reach 72 percent. See if they own your station. Refuse to watch any local news broadcast that’s on a station owned by Sinclair.

The scariest part of Sinclair's attempted local news takeover: most people won't notice it. And that’s why I’m here to help.

Trump administration says National Guard troops could head to US-Mexico border as soon as Wednesday night.


Now Facebook says it shared the data of "up to 87 million" users with Cambridge Analytica.

Facebook will let you check if Cambridge Analytica could have gotten access to your data.

Oklahoma State Representative Kevin McDugle ( R) is a horrible person.

Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin ( R ) compares teachers to “a teenage kid that wants a better car.” HTF do these people get into office? Stop voting for them.

Oklahoma House approves education tax bill amid teacher walkout.

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is worse than a horrible person. His Twitter meltdown last night was fun to read, though.

Of the 26 email domains managed by the Executive Office of the President, 18 are not in compliance with a DHS directive to implement a security protocol that verifies the emails as genuinely from the White House. But what about her emails!!

A bill announced today would require California police to use deadly force only when necessary mand not whenever “reasonable.” Jesus Christ. How was this not the case in the first place?

Donald Trump’s attacks this week on Amazon and its C.E.O., Jeff Bezos, are a reminder that the President’s seemingly boundless corporate favoritism is actually favoritism of a much more narrow and fickle kind.

Twitter cracks down on accounts accused of spreading false info after YouTube shooting.

Can you believe your own ears? With new ‘Fake News’ tech, not necessarily. “David Doermann, who runs the program, imagined a disaster scenario: a collage of fake audio, video and photos that come together in a mass misinformation campaign — and create the impression of a major event that never even occurred.” Coming soon!

Colorado lawmakers again say no to cannabis clubs.

Some researchers believe that doses of “superblood” could work against potentially deadly malignancies, including triple-negative breast cancer and pancreatic cancer as well as cancers of the liver, ovary, and colon.

“We’ve got to give ourselves to this struggle until the end … either we go up together, or we go down together.” -- Martin Luther King Jr.

Life’s short. Live, love, create, and help others.

Until next time, my friends. Good night.
