Federal Trade Commission Sues To Bust Up Facebook
On Wednesday the Federal Trade Commission sued to break up Facebook, the government agency is asking a federal court to force the sale of assets such as Instagram and WhatsApp as independent businesses.
The lawsuit asks the federal court to order the “divestiture of assets, divestiture or reconstruction of businesses (including, but not limited to, Instagram and/or WhatsApp),” as well as other possible relief the court might want to add.
“Facebook has maintained its monopoly position by buying up companies that present competitive threats and by imposing restrictive policies that unjustifiably hinder actual or potential rivals that Facebook does not or cannot acquire,” the commission said in the lawsuit filed in federal court in the nation’s capital.
Attorneys general from forty eight states and territories said they were filing their own lawsuit against Facebook, reflecting the broad and widespread concern about how much power Facebook and its CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, have accumulated on the internet.
Even if government lawyers win a judgment against Facebook, it would be up to a federal judge what to do about the company’s dominant position. It’s rare in American history for a big company to be broken up, but it’s happened in the past, the last time being AT&T in 1984.
The FTC, on a 3-2 vote, filed the case after an investigation that stretched more than a year. Commission staffers had been preparing the lawsuit for months and recommended that the FTC vote to bring a case.
“Personal social networking is central to the lives of millions of Americans,” said Ian Conner, director of the FTC’s Bureau of Competition. “Facebook’s actions to entrench and maintain its monopoly deny consumers the benefits of competition. Our aim is to roll back Facebook’s anticompetitive conduct and restore competition so that innovation and free competition can thrive.”

“Equality Road” and “Diversity Grove”: UK City Names Six Streets with Ridiculous Woke Terminology
The Birmingham City Council in England has recently decided to name six new streets with typically absurd “woke” terminology.
According to RT, the city of Birmingham is developing new infrastructure for the 2022 Commonwealth Games and building 5,000 new homes, meaning that new roads will need to be paved.
The Birmingham City Council asked locals to submit names for the first six roads, from which they chose the following: Equality Road, Inspire Avenue, Destiny Road, Respect Way, Diversity Grove, and Humanity Close. These names came from an entry submitted by a local woman, according to Labour Councillor Waseem Zaffar.
Naturally, reaction to these new street names has not been altogether positive:
These new street names are completely vacuous with zero connection to the people, history or culture of Birmingham. Another über-Woke Labour initiative ???? https://t.co/JmERvYhyAL — Neil Hamilton MS/AS (@NeilUKIP) December 8, 2020
The politicisation of our landscape continues. The utter meaningless banality of these new names speaks volumes about the new, hollow normal.
Anyway, how’s about : Crass Close
Compliance Crescent
WokeWash Way https://t.co/sflLxzJ7is — Peter Whittle AM (@prwhittle) December 9, 2020

Good people cannot sit back and let SJWs run roughshod over their nations and cultures like this. Wokeness is an abomination.

CANCELED: Thomas Jefferson and George Mason Removed from Names of Two Schools in Virginia Because They Were Slaveholders
Two public schools in Virginia named after Founding Fathers will be renamed because of slavery and “racism.”
Thomas Jefferson and George Mason, the respective namesakes of an elementary and high school in Falls Church, contributed much to the intellectual foundations of American independence and concepts like inalienable rights. Yet because they were slaveholders, their names are being erased from those schools.
The Falls Church City Public Schools board voted unanimously to rename the schools, despite 56 percent of respondents in a voluntary survey saying that the names shouldn’t be changed. The 44 percent who thought they should change mostly cited Jefferson and Mason’s slaveholding and that it “could make students feel marginalized and uncomfortable.”
Thomas Jefferson is a familiar name for his authorship of the Declaration of Independence and his presidency, whereas George Mason is not nearly as well-known and has been referred to as the “Forgotten Founder.” Mason was a principal author of the Virginia Declaration of Rights, which significantly influenced the Bill of Rights in the US Constitution. Interestingly enough, he refused to sign the Constitution because it lacked such a bill of rights at first. It wasn’t until 1791, a year before his death, that the Bill of Rights was ratified.
Both Jefferson and Mason opposed slavery on moral and intellectual grounds, but they did not feel they could personally extricate themselves from the practice because of their heavy reliance on slave labor for the operation of their estates.
In any case, this continues a disturbing trend in erasing American history that picked up steam during the hysteria of the George Floyd riots. No sane, serious country tries to cancel its own heroes.

Republican House Speaker Lee Chatfield of Clarklake praised Van Langevelde’s betrayal as a great example of “America at work.” “As we have been saying consistently for weeks, the Legislature will uphold the law and respect this result as it works to improve the process for next time,” Chatfield said. Van Langevelde works as a policy adviser and deputy legal counsel for the Michigan House Republican Policy Office. He was effectively carrying out policy from his GOP establishment masters when he joined Democrats to betray his oath of office earlier this week.
Perhaps the reason why the MIGOP leadership is so weak is that legitimate grassroots leaders are crushed by big money and the hand-picked leaders refuse to do anything that is not directly ordered by the special interests.


bigleaguepolitics--2020-12-09--Election Workers Call Police on Volunteers, Using COVID as the Excuse, at Michigan State House Distr

The pattern of Democrats using thuggish behavior to harass and intimidate whistleblowers continued during the recount for Michigan ’ s 71st District House seat .
State representative candidate Gina Johnsen called for the recount because she believes it is necessary for improving the flawed electoral process .
However , electoral officials in Eaton County apparently do not support transparency and made it difficult for poll watchers and challengers to exercise their rights and supervise the process .
Johnsen told Big League Politics that she gained four votes and her opponent lost one vote during the two-day hand recount that her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is pleased that the process exposed corruption as poll workers and election officials yet again fabricated nonexistent COVID protocol to disenfranchise whistleblowers .
“ I pushed the point that there ’ s no reason why I couldn ’ t have volunteers in there with medical exemptions .

The illegal in question is 25-year old Jorge Alexander Che-Quiab. Che-Quiab is charged with murder, sexual assault of a child, at least 11 other felony charges. ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations had filed a detainer in August when Che-Quiab was previously arrested on felony controlled substance warrant, but Araphoe County refused to hand him over, citing Colorado’s sanctuary law.
According to an affidavit, Che-Quiab admitted to raping a 14-year old to investigators.

Left-wing judges forced the Trump administration to reinstate the amnesty program last week, which shields more than half a million illegal aliens from deportation.
The multitude of criminal charges against Che-Quiab stem from a party in August in which it’s alleged the drug dealer provided fentanyl to a 16-year old who died of an overdose.

Prosecutors ultimately decided to charge Che-Quiab with first-degree murder in connection with the fentanyl overdose, accusing the admitted drug dealer of showing “extreme indifference” as a minor died in his apartment.
Che-Quiab had previously skipped out of county jail on bond after being initially charged with drug offenses.

The Ohio Democratic Congresswoman Joe Biden has slated for the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development called for a judge convicted of violently beating his wife to be given clemency in sentencing .

Cuyahoga County judge and former Ohio State Senator Lance Mason was convicted of a particularly brutal attack on his then-wife in 2015, breaking her bones and even biting her. He used his connections with Fudge to secure a sweetheart deal for a particularly aggravated assault, serving only nine months in prison for a violent crime that would’ve normally merited a sentence of several years.
Mason would go on to murder his wife in 2018, stabbing her over fifty times in front of their daughters. He is now serving life in prison.
The disgraced Democrat judge would probably still be in prison for his first violent felony conviction, with his victim’s life spared, if not for Fudge’s generous appeal for leniency. “The behavior Lance displayed … is out of character and totally contrary to everything I know about him,” Fudge wrote of the judge turned violent felon in 2015. “Lance accepts full responsibility for his actions and has assured me that something like this will never happen again.

INVASIVE TECH: Amazon’s New Health Band Collects All Sorts of Personal Information Never Before Collected
Amazon has released a health-tracking bracelet which collects all kinds of invasive personal information that similar trackers, like the Apple Watch and Fitbit, do not collect.
The Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post reviewed the Halo Band in an article published Thursday. As of now the Halo costs $65, though it will eventually cost $100 along with a $4 monthly fee once Amazon decides to sell more.
The fabric bracelet comes with a microphone, but unlike the Apple Watch and Fitbit it does not have a screen, sounds, or vibrations. All the data is accessed on the Halo’s smartphone app instead.

Minneapolis Slashes Police Budget by $8 Million Despite Record Crime Levels
Despite record crime rates in their city, the Minneapolis City Council passed a budget that takes $8 million from the police department and puts it towards “alternative public safety strategies.”
Such alternative public safety strategies include mental health, social, and non-police response services.
Although the city council unanimously cut the police budget, they voted 7-6 to remove language about decreasing staff and to increase recruitment opportunities. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey threatened to veto the budget if the council remained committed to reducing staff from 888 to 750.
The Minneapolis City Council has toned down their initial call to defund the police and radically transform the concept of public safety. It still appears they are committed to achieving that goal over the long-term; they just won’t try to achieve it at breakneck speed.
Minneapolis has been struggling with increased crime since the George Floyd riots. Homicides are up 85 percent, carjackings are up 331 percent, and there have been 532 gunshot victims so far in 2020, which is up more than 100 percent from 2019. The Wall Street Journal also published a story about the city’s woes Thursday titled “George Floyd Memorial Thrives, but Minneapolis Neighborhood Struggles.”
Back in mid-November Big League Politics reported on the Minneapolis City Council’s approval of a $500,000 appropriation to hire police officers from neighboring cities, due to an exodus of Minneapolis officers leaving the force:
And in September Minneapolis city councilors described their constituents as “terrorized” by high crime rates and stated that the Minneapolis PD is often “nowhere to be seen”:
If present demographic and crime trends continue, Minneapolis will resemble Detroit within the next decade or two. It will be a husk of its once thriving self—and it will have all been self-inflicted.
