ok, so looked at those links. Then searched more and see this one.
I was at this show, says 78' seems right, my gf at the time and I split early.
before X went on. Don Snowden recollects who comments seems to distort
the story though. WTF whoever wrote this is FOS. "Badge of Honor".
"Hetropartriarchy". "Masscre", "War- Zones", "Imperial Logic" this
is fiction. SM Civic and Palladium had their own security inside always.
These were white middle class kids mostly, not hood dwellers. It was
a tribe of posers usually. The OC hardcore punks really started to hassle the police
and cause issues.

"Citing five people with knowledge of the plans, the Post said Trump was considering several possible replacements, including former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton and Keith Kellogg, the chief of staff of the National Security Council.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request from Reuters for comment.

-------- More Fake news ---------

Those top stories change. I have Politico, CNN, Fox News Insider right now

Organic results have FOX and other Conservative leaning sites on page 1.

As far as some of the other stuff being posted. I would have no problem finding Super Conservative, way right leaning sites, channels, pages, in Facebook, Google, YouTube, Twitter etc. Most of the time when somebody gets zapped or warned it's simply people violating rules somewhere. It's their platform, their rules. Follow them and most of the time you'll be ok. Some people know these rules and purposely break them or push it and use it for attention, that happens a lot. Or what happened with those 2 girls. Never heard of them and they got a lot of attention when they were detained. They benefited from that. Look how many times Gilsan alone posted about them being detained. Most of that stuff is planned. Get detained - make the news - get the tweets - get the posts all over the internet = Attention.

I am well aware all this stuff changes but this is the first time since I mentioned it that fox was at the top. So, glad to see it before I go OTH. about bias.

Thanks for pointing that out, appreciate the follow up so I could clear my head.
I will keep watching though.

FOX made it through the algo this time because they put TRUMP and SCANDAL in the headline

McCabe, Republican is 49 and retiring? Our tax dollars at work.
Usual path- college-->law degree--->swamp
http://freebeacon.com/issues/andrew-mccabes-pension-worth-1-8-million/

"McCabe took early retirement, which he was eligible for after serving at the bureau for over 20 years"

Career in Gov't. He was "forced" to work at real job outside the swamp for 2 years per the wiki. lol.
As though he could not stand working as a real lawyer?

"Because of a hiring freeze, McCabe spent three years in a private law practice before joining the FBI in 1996 in Philadelphia."

Wife a pediatrician (I guess not a busy one or liked her job either), democrat, runs for senate office, loses.

"giving him an annual pension of $55,230."

Wall Street Journal revealed his wife received over $600,000 for her failed Virginia state senate campaign from political groups tied to Terry McAuliffe, a long-standing ally of Hillary Clinton. McCabe oversaw the investigation into Clinton's misuse of classified information.

McCabe received the statement drafted by Comey exonerating Clinton months before she was ever interviewed for the investigation. He was also referenced in text messages between Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, the anti-Trump FBI officials who discussed an "insurance policy" if Trump won the presidential election.

Perfect illustration of the Swamp. Never kept a real job, questionable ethics to the country gets to retire at what most other people would dream of

I hope you are wrong. Do you watch this search behavior? I am going to start now.

Another thing, I just went to c n n com, the site is soooo slow to load, the script even timed out. Worse than fox loading a bunch of crappy ad's and nonsense. Yet they remain at the top of search rank, yet I read in this SEO stuff that google penalizes slow loading sites- I suppose only "nobody" sites are scrutinized.

The carousel changes to show most recent - Right now, Fox News insider is first for me on that query.

CNN, Washingtonpost and nytimes all have higher DA than foxnews = more link equity = higher rankings (generally). It's not Fox doing anything "bad", they just have better link profiles.

Actually, pages with a lot of ads do get “dinged” for it. Ad types which are defined as “intrusive” by the CBA (an industry group.) Fox’s home page might fall into that on some devices (search results are different for mobile and desktop) because ads look like they take up >30% of the initial screen for me on here. (Their article pages may be ok.)

It’s. An. Algorithm. You’re have a preconceived opinion and are cherry picking to confirm it without understanding how these things work. Don’t do that !

Why do you not think government jobs are “real jobs?” They’re as “real” as similar positions in the private sector.

This is the pic everyone talking about today

I see nothing wrong with it. The bride the best looking person in the pic, as it should be

Also the happiest looking one in the pic. (Not judging, just making an observation....)

This might be the last time cops ever officially guess what happen

After she was released in the city of Huntington Beach, Vallejo police called the kidnapping a hoax and erroneously likened it to the book and movie "Gone Girl," in which a woman goes missing and then lies about being kidnapped when she reappears.

‘Curious’: Vanessa Trump hires a criminal defense attorney to handle her divorce from Donald Trump Jr.

Yes, interesting choice...

Also interesting timing that the divorce was filed right after her husband’s family business was subpoenaed...

I wonder if there will be a quick and amicable transfer of assets?

 

[johname]

It suppose to be an uncontested divorce. If Trump JR transfers practically all 'his' assets to his wife that would suggest he is try protect money.

If it is a pure pre-nup divorce that would be different

The weird thing is she could easily sail through three more years, then get a divorce, so the timing either ultra nutty or a legal dodge

Exactly, since word is they were living separate lives for a while. It will be interesting to see where this goes.

I guess the criminal defense lawyer could be a friend or relative, but odd choice for an uncontested divorce nonetheless.

 

[offthehandle]

McCabe fired. Just announced. Excellent News. Indict Hillary Next!!!!!!
Hope criminal charges and no federal pensions for all the leakers.


Same day $21 Trillion in debt USA. Drain more of the swamp, cut the pension liabilities.
Privatize TSA again, defund California Fed Fund and other non compliant states with Sanctuary states.

In 2024, maybe Trump will have managed to anger every Liberal institution in the bloated wasteful bureaucratic system.
