Okay, so, I wasn't going to submit these here because I've really had quite enough of politics for the year but it seems the mainstream media are having an absolute blackout on anything critical of Hillary, to the point of CNN has both coincidentally lost a sitting congressman's satellite feed immediately after mentioning wikileaks and tried to tell their viewers that even reading the wikileaks emails is illegal.

These two videos by Project Veritas Action, apparently with more to come, are the result of a year or so of actual investigative journalism and deserve coverage somewhere though. I don't personally care at all if you like Hillary or not but it's always better to know the truth than to stick your head in the sand, so here they are.

The first part in the series is titled Clinton Campaign and DNC Incite Violence at Trump Rallies. It basically shows precisely what it says it does. Hidden cameras capture Scott Foval of Americans United for Change not so much admitting as bragging that they have operatives in numerous major cities that are actually trained in how best to incite violence at Trump rallies.

The second part of the series is again aptly titled Mass Voter Fraud. In this video Scott Foval is again captured going into minute detail on how not only go commit mass voter fraud but how to get away with it.

Scott Foval and Robert Creamer (also in the videos) are currently unemployed as a result of these videos. Whether Mrs. Clinton should be as well, that's for you to decide.

    [Facebook] and [Twitter] are under no obligation to provide a channel to anyone and are free to control what they publish

    Agreed. However, if your phone company (also not limited by the First Amendment) started dropping your calls whenever you started talking about a given subject (or simply dropping the recipient while keeping your side connected, ala shadow-banning), you might then understand why FB and T users are upset over their treatment by said companies. Apparently, the youngsters nowadays use FB and T much like we creaky longbeards used telephone and email back in the day.

    For certain values of the term "youngster" this may be true. Around my neck of the woods, "youngsters" use Snapchat and Instagram. Facebook is what parents use to tell other parents what they ate for dinner and where they went after work last night. Twitter is where Kardashian obsessives go for their fixes.

    The phone company can't because they'd lose common carrier status.

      They certainly could; it's not a requirement that the phone company remain a common carrier. However, it is quite unlikely the phone company would choose to censor communications.

      None of which even challenges my primary point that people get understandably upset when their communications are censored.
