Get used to it. My nearest cell tower (AT&T system, very rural area.) has been inoperative about 80% of the time for the last two months. And before that, it would be down for a couple weeks at a time every other month or so for the last two years.. Given the whole business, political, social environment that we are under in the U.S. I'm a little surprised that any complex system functions at all. And I really believe that it will only get worse.

Thing is these wireless carriers don't all use the same technology plus the fact that a huge company like ATT and a tiny company like Cricket all went down at the same time. China is just jerking us around now. Dry run for massive outage probably summer.

Big Tech is using AI and media ratings firms as new ways to censor conservative voices, but the fight to expose the bias and censorship is underway. On the Feb. 20 edition of The Wayne DuPree Show, MRC Free Speech America Vice President Dan Schneider raised the alarm that Big Tech is using its power and influence to remove media critical of the Biden administration from the public’s view. Schneider said that platforms such as Google, Meta and ChatGPT “are trying to radicalize the whole world” in the “worst possible ways” with their censorship tactics.

President Joe Biden attempted to appease Palestinians Friday by reversing a Donald Trump-era policy Friday that declared the presence of Israeli communities in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) to be legal under international law. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who has taken an increasingly hostile tone toward Israel, declared that settlements were “”inconsistent with international law,” reverting to a policy adopted by Barack Obama during the lame-duck weeks of his administration in 2016.

Joe Biden gave remarks to the nation's governors at the White House. The governors were in D.C. for the National Governors Association Winter Meeting from Thursday to Saturday. He started off by saying, "If I were smart, I'd leave right now." (X Video) Biden apparently thinks that's funny. But he didn't leave right then, so that told us everything we needed to know about that question. I am guessing, however, that he will have left by this time next year. He probably should have departed because when he kept talking, he got into trouble.

Washington — President Joe Biden told the nation’s governors on Friday that he’s exploring what executive actions he can take to curb migration across the southern border after a bipartisan deal collapsed in Congress this month. He seemed to express frustration at the legal limits of his authority to act unilaterally. Biden hosted members of the National Governors Association in the East Room, where he implored them to urge their representatives in Congress to resurrect the bipartisan proposal that collapsed within 48 hours. He also sharply criticized Republicans for backing away from the agreement after former President Donald Trump lobbied in opposition to the deal.

The liberal journal The Atlantic is reporting that unless they receive “guidance” from the U.S. Supreme Court, House Democrats might not certify the 2024 election if Trump wins. Isn’t this the entire basis for the Democrat/Media freakout over January 6th? Isn’t this why so many Trump supporters are currently suffering in prison? Aren’t these the same Democrats who have been shrieking about the importance of ‘our democracy’ for years now? It really looks as though their whole political philosophy boils down to nothing mattering unless they win.

President Joe Biden on Thursday revealed that two journalists privately told him they would have to leave the country if Donald Trump won the election because he has threatened to jail them. Biden made the claim as he addressed wealthy donors in California and spelled out the dangers of a second Trump term. He singled journalist Katie Couric who was among the audience. ‘Katie, there’s two of your former colleagues, not at the same network, told me personally that if he wins they have to leave the country because he’s threatened to put them in jail,’ he said.

Citing data obtained from Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Fox News reports that “Chinese nationals are the second-largest nationality encountered at the border in San Diego Sector since the fiscal year began in October.” “There have been 21,000 Chinese nationals encountered, second only to Colombia (28,000),” the data revealed. “Third is Mexican nationals with 18,700, followed by Brazil (8,700) and Ecuador (7,700).
