There's no law about hate speech in u.s. at federal level

He was fired because Trump and Pam Bondi gave the Project 2025 Author(the one Trump knew nothing about but hired sooo many people from it) the FCC Chairman threatened all the ABC affiliates. If they carried the show, they could be fined or taken off the air. It's that simple. Now the President has told reporters, they cannot report on anything related to the Pentagon without getting APPROVAL from the Pentagon first. Probably because we've had to MASSIVE security breaches by the drunk who runs it already. But imagine Biden saying, "you can't report on anything unless it comes through us first? OR... Biden saying, "we're going to go after the people who are unfair to me. I get a lot of hate." It's... literally, the first thing fascists regimes do. Also, look into the goal of project 2025. Consolidate power under a conservative President by means of removing checks and balances. The AUTHOR of that is... the FCC Chairmen(one of the authors). This is proof this is a cult. The Biden administration REQUESTED that Facebook remove or put notes on inaccurate information regarding a PANDEMIC and that was seen as this egregious infringement and overreach by the Govt'. But THIS... you guys just either try to play dumb... or you're just REALLY-really DUMB.

Jesus Christ... I think we might actually be able to fix this company if we did that. I mean, it's loading too slow for me to see, but I'm seeing some crazy people on the first post. "I'm not even from America...." So... cool. Not you're including "leftists," all over the world? "Then I'm throwing in Putin... see how silly this gets? Also, I KNOW @1032004 has openly condemned this from the start, I don't know who he is, but he's never been a zealot who celebrates most murder.

I mean... the REALLY funny part is.. Fox NEWS did the same thing! There's a reason their defense in Court has quite LITERALLY been "no reasonable person would take us seriously," and Regarding the 2020 Election. And yet... people kept watching, so I guess they thought their FoxNews Online could just be... 'screw it, what's on Twitter?'

The funny part is he often says he doesn’t even know who the people are that he’s copying posts from. Literally just posts stuff while doing no research about who’s posting it or to verify the information is accurate. Good catch on the Destiny thing btw.

Yeah, just going through this, he's posted several things that are just... comically untrue. I mean, posting a couple of videos that are just long enough that people who are not at all curious don't look any further, that's what Twitter is there for. It's there so the easily influenced can be led in whatever direction someone wants to lead them. But he's now posted two things... and in fairness, even Fox posted about the Destiny guy, but Tim Walz using the National Guard to keep people in their homes? He didn't stop and think, "gee, that... that may not be true, I should check on that!" This is actually Tim Walz calling the National Guard after the George Floyd stuff... which, incidentally, Trump praised him for and said he handled it very well(before he ran against him and then said he handled it terribly). I'm just annoyed I wrote out a long post to reply to him as... he'll probably just use the World's most reliable News Source..."The Guy he follows on Twitter says," to respond.

Not funny to make fun of his death

Yeah, I just saw this. He was demonetized 4 years ago and posted it online... trolling people to make them think it'd happened over the Charlie Kirk thing. And yet... Fox News Ran with it(and apparently whatever AF is)... and now... even when you google it, it says he was banned on Twitch and Demonetized on YouTube this past week... when he's really just MOCKING the right... You guys do NOT get to talk about "fake news" any longer... LOL... Jesus his entire schtick is trying to get a reaction. He's made... He makes money on something called "Kick." He... apparently makes a lot of money. But he was NOT just banned.

You fell for fake news.

You mean like... NOT one of the authors of project 2025? The one who spoke about consolidating power under a conservative President, fundamentally changing Governance in the United States to...well, shift the balance of power to the executive? Amazing how Trump NEVER heard of project 2025(though what he did her he thought was just terrible)... and yet, he hired so many members...

Can I ask you something? WHY do you think the people you follow on Twitter are ONLY showing you 19 seconds of a Hillary Clinton Clip when it took up an ENTIRE segment and they don't show you She's talking about FOREIGN AGENTS. This was when the Kremlin was funneling MILLIONS of dollars for videos with VERY few views and everyone played dumb, NOT disclosing what Country they were working for and having Bennie Johnson and Tim Poole and others pushing Russian talking points. She's talking about Russian or Chinese Agents. AND AGAIN... the right LOST THEIR MINDS when she said even THIS. So there WAS a "peep" and This is something I tell my Kids and my Nephew and... I guess I need to explain to you. When people are ONLY telling you part of the story, you should be skeptical. It's also apparently THAT easy for Social Media influencers to... just make a fool of you and make you believe whatever it is they want you to believe... 19 seconds. Did you even make an attempt to seek out any context? Who she was talking about? What would YOU think if... Hamas was using a bunch of useful idiots to spread propaganda online and lying about the information they're spreading(I'm guessing they are)?

Thoughts on this? The whole video helps. 1-Republicans lost their SH7T over this and said she was trying to take away their 1st amendment rights. 2-She was talking about violence. Calling for actual violence, ie, the Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping, the firebombing of a Synagogue, etc.... 2019 was the worst year on record for hate crimes and politically motivated attacks since McVeigh in 1995. So inciting violence, not saying, "MAGA is desperately trying to characterize this kid.... as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points. She's talking about ACTUAL threats of Political Violence. 3-She was running for VP, she was not in office and she very specifically said that wouldn't include taking any Social Media companies down. So what she was NOT doing was; -In the Oval office directing the FCC to take Kimmel off the air because he said You'll note(but not respond to) the fact that he DOES NOT say that the shooter WAS MAGA, just that they are desperate to characterize him as anyone OTHER than one of them BEFORE THEY HAD ALL THE FACTS, and doing everything they can to score political points from it... which was... absolutely true. Similar to how they did with the Minnesota State Senators. Claiming the Democrats names an addresses he had(including Tammy Baldwin) was a list of people helping him. A truly absurd proposition. Now since YOU THINK he said he WAS MAGA, it'd be akin to going after the people on Social Media who said that Vance Boelter, the man who had a hit list of Democrat Politicians, was ACTUALLY "ordered to kill them because Tim Walz wanted to be a Senator and he left a letter behind at the scene." What they're saying is so EASILY disprovable... namely because, why would Tim Walz want to become a STATE Senator? People are passing around this rumor while not understanding these were not the two US Senators from Minnesota. I don't know if you'd heard that, it's the type of thing Jimmy would say, but if you were not aware of this brand of stupid, now you are. Other things she was NOT doing 2-She was also NOT making VERY clear threats like Pam Bondi; (you can look up the rest of the quote, but it's about finding you and arresting you. 3-She was NOT telling Reporters WHAT they could report on with regard to our GOVERNMENT; https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/sep/20/pentagon-journalists-restrictions-pledge THE PRESS IS THE PEOPLE... just as the GOVERNMENT "is of" the people. You CANNOT limit what the press can release EVEN IF IT'S CLASSIFIED. It's THEIR job to ensure it REMAINS classified. It is NOT the presses job to go and CHECK with the people they are supposed to be holding accountable to see if it's alright for them to write about them!!!!! 4-She did NOT threaten ANYONE who speaks "Negatively" against him(or her as it is) as Trump did; 5-She did NOT say "we're not done yet," after threatening ONE network. He reiterated a similar line later that day: "We’re not done yet." 6-She was also NOT a "Partial" Author of Project 2025... which YOU for one said was "fake news," and a joke. Yet, here, one of the authors is... attacking free speech. I could also point out that Project 2025 is meant to shift control TO PRESIDENT TRUMP, including the entire DOJ under his direction(as you would see in a fascist state) as well as close agencies like the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.... which helps protect you against the Big Banks from... breaking a litany of laws, policies that are OVERWHELMINGLY popular and have saved American's hundreds of Billions of dollars. It ALSO aims to Eliminate the FBI, the Department of Education... basically to consolidate power under a conservative President, and fundamentally change the checks and balances in the Government. TRUMP.... back during the campaign when asked about it said; Now I honestly little faith in your ability to have a discussion in good faith, but please prove me wrong here. But to your question; -HAD you posted the whole context of what Harris said when she ran for VICE PRESIDENT in 2019, you'd find she was talking about threatening people's lives. I argued with someone on Twitter today about something Gavin Newsome's Press Office said. I'll just provide the quote here as best as I can remember; Now... I'm not sure if that's EXACTLY what was posted, but that's effectively it. -Things are going to be bad for Kriti Noem, you're welcome. MY position was that sounded too much like a thinly veiled threat. The point the people I was arguing with was.... that's EXACTLY what Trump has Tweeted about various Democrats and the whole "'Gavin Newsome's Press Office," is meant to be a half Parody Account, BUT, the explanation was that the State of California was going to be suing the Department of Homeland Security. My position was, if you think that sounds like a threat when TRUMP says it, you shouldn't use it as "Satire," because you've said... THAT is an ominous post and it COULD infer that something violent would happen to her. What's most, it's NOT a "satirical" account if you're ACTUALLY posting about the Business of the Governor of California. -I say that to say this, I don't like that Harris used the terms "hate speech," and if she means inciting violence, THAN SAY THAT. HOWEVER... she was the Vice President for 4 years. Biden was the President. They did NOT; -Order the FCC to go after any of the ABC Affiliates for TALKING about something they didn't like(and NO, Kimmel DID-NOT-LIE... the Right, from the jump was saying, "He's not part of the right, he's part of the radical left," and they DID politicize the issue). -Threaten the Broadcast license of anyone who was "very mean" to President Biden while he was in office. -FORCE REPORTERS TO SIGN AGREEMENTS that they wouldn't' report on what the Pentagon was doing WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL. -Sue NUMEROUS Networks and then strongarm them into PAYING the President at the time so they wouldn't have mergers blocked or... risk losing their broadcast licenses. PLEASE tell me how you see that is fascism? That is literally the FIRST step of Facism. To start to control the airwaves. Finally, I didn't think highly of Harris in 2019. This was when she was trying to run to the left of Bernie and Warren because there was polling that showed(and actually still does show) that Bernie's policies are as popular as Trump's, particularly among low income American's. The problem was, she was a poor facsimile of Bernie OR Warren as AT LEAST you know Bernie means what he says. You may vehemently disagree, but Bernie is one of the most authentic politicians we've ever had, even to his detriment. So you ask me what I think about what she's saying about political VIOLENCE in a Twitter clip you've cut up? Not much for ALL the reasons I listed above. She served four years in office and didn't violate anyone's FREE SPEECH, a TENENT of Democracy, of the Republican that we were given(if we could keep it). I think that this is Project 2025 doing EXACTLY what we said and you and people of your ilk mocked before the election because you didn't bother to read. I also think it's terrifying because given the divide in this Country, I've heard people who think the "Hate speech," as you represented Harris referring to(but again, was actually about inciting violence) SHOULD be illegal. That you SHOULD go to Prison for saying the N word, for calling someone a F-word, for saying all manner of ugly, BUT LEGAL things. I believe the Klan should be able to hold a parade or a public protest or "display," as they tried to in 1977 when the NAACP FOUGHT for their right to do so because FREEDOM OF SPEECH is so essential to the fabric of this country... I believe it's worth dying for. I ALSO think you should be able to walk down the street chanting "F-Charlie Kirke....Piss on his Grave," and I don't remember what the small group of BLM was chanting that made National News, DESPITE how distasteful I find celebrating his death to be. And YOU should be just as against it if you care at all for this Country... but lets say you only care for HALF this Country. You realize, even if ALL the worst or best case scenarios come true and Project 2025 is able to enact their entire agenda and consolidate power under Trump, you STILL have the 2026 mid-terms that are ALMOST certainly going to swing the House back to the Democrats(just based on the history of the Mid-terms). So do YOU want to be at risk for LOSING your Freedom of Speech? But ULTIMATELY what I think... ONE side is ACTUALLY DOING IT...and they're using Charlie Kirk as an excuse. They're using it to stop the Press from reporting on the Pentagon UNLESS the Pentagon approves. They're doing this HOPING you're not paying attention... and you're NOT. And yes, this was a VERY long post because as much as you'd like to believe this fits neatly into an asinine "what about this" Tweet... well, I don't believe you're actually dumb enough to believe that. This is the FIRST act of any fascist Government. And it starts by dividing people. Incidentally, it's also antithetical to EVERYTHING Charlie Kirk stood for. Again, I didn't like him, but you can read my post history, I think it's disgusting to say he got "Kirk'd" or make light of his death in any way. But his WHOLE thing was going to campuses and HAVING AN OPEN DIALOGUE. -Basically, I don't think much about something Kamala Harris said in a VERY different context that you didn't display that simply used the words "Hate speech," but was addressing violence. I DO know what Republicans and Conservatives thought about it THEN despite the context and... yet... you don't seem to care now. -If nothing else, be better than little Jimmy. You KNOW this isn't about a private company firing an employee because it's too expensive to continue to air these late shows. I anticipate Myers and Fallon being let go in the next 12 months as well due to diminishing returns(if not increasing losses), though Jon Stewart will keep his job on Cable. If there was ANY doubt, it should have been eliminated when they decided to... AGAIN force reporters to get PENTAGON APPROVAL before reporting on any stories or Pam Bondi/Trump's statements, the Project 2025 authors saying "we're not done yet," when it comes to getting shows taken off the air.

That's brutal. Also, something else that doesn't make sense to me. Ferrari is the #1 ranked guy on Wrestlestat, McEnelly who took 3rd with losses to just Starocci and PK in very close matches is #2, Sinclair is #8, Ryder 12th and Mantanona 6th. I would think they'd want to be at '65 and '74 again given the insane depth and youth at '84, but... Mantanona is probably confident he's in that group... so long as he doesn't have any of the Refs that did the Mantanona's HS State Finals matches at the B1Gs or NCAAs...

Well... just as I said, that they'd make scratch weight for certification. No, we just scooped water out of the toilet and nobody said anything. But that was a while ago, I thought the certification was a bit more... rigorous now. For instance, now we have someone other than our trainer come in and they test(last I heard anyway). Or they didn't test, but alright. Just didn't really make sense to me to have a guy make weight for nothing, especially since... at least WAY back in the in the mid aughts, you could just re-test if you were off. So if you certified at 174.8 or you were too far over, you could wait and... certify later. Like PSU with Kasak, Duke. Safe to assume one will go '57 this year, but Kasak is certified at '74 and Duke isn't in there at 157? Or Nagao. I assumed he was going '41, but he's "certified" at '57. So if they're saying you can only go down one weight from certification... But that's all, it just seems like a miserable experiance, I thought the weight you certified at wa...the weight you could go to, and that first cut and you have to do it hydrated and you have to do it with no match on the line and make scratch weight. For all the guys who haven't Wrestled all off-season or who are going down from where they Wrestled, them getting down, on weight and hydrated... plus my belief that "certified," meant those were the weights they were... certified to Wrestle. That's why is didn't "make sense" to me to do it this way.

Yeah... I remember. I lost two pools because of that match. I took Vito to win it that year. He beat Glory like 19-5 two weeks earlier and then nearly gets majored(or may have gotten majored) the next year. Vito scored pretty clean in the 1st and got in deep, almost scored again. Glory gets the TD in the 2nd, 3-2 and Vito is about to reverse him, he's got a turk in and he's looking for the turn and... I don't remember how they ended up in this position, but Glory was kinda on his side and Vito was on his back... but Vito still looked like he could... I don't know, hip over and score... but he didn't. Instead of 2 for Vito and potential NF, Glory gets 4NF. They go into the 3rd I think 7-5, Vito cuts Glory and he can't get the TD, Glory gets a TD to put it away and then finishes with RT and some final second NF to make it 13-5 maybe? It was hard to imagine Vito wouldn't be able to score on him at will looking at the Conf Finals, but Glory was a big '25 and dug those underhooks out late and Vito didn't have an answer.

Well yeah, obviously. Head, hands defense is... a given at this level of Wrestling. There's not a Wrestler who can be successful without having good head, hands defense. The down-blocking is... certainly not used as much, guys would rather come back up to their feet and re-attack, though I think you've seen a lot of PSU guys, namely Starocci and Brooks who have really dominated that position and scored and beaten guys there. That's one reason I liked how they Wrestled. They were just always in control and they were basic, but they were almost perfect in that. But even they could scramble. Even Hardy, Sasso, Askren... hell, Jaggers, they were head, hands defense first, but they could score if a guy got in on them. The only guy I'd say "invited" it in the biggest matches was Jaggers and he just went on a couple of heaters his Jr and Sr year. I remember a friend of mine calling him the "worst NCAA Champ ever," and I argued a little, but it was a pointless argument. But we're out there watching him win it again and I looked, didn't say a word and he just goes, "pft, worst 2X Champ ever." I understand what you're saying though, some guys are more dangerous counter Wrestlers. Hardy is one of them...Jaggers, Henning from Wisconsin was on his way to an NCAA Championship vs Trent(Travis?) Paulson when he was coming out the back and they blew it for Potentially Dangerous. The same thing he'd been doing all year. And he was very good on top. Not great on his feet(which is why Poeta always beat him) but... he was incredible with that defense. -Also, off-topic, but he was the same guy who was up... 7-2 IIRC on Ben Askren as a Freshmen in the State Finals. Henning had a Brother who was a 3X Champ, should have been a 4X Champ but he got upset as a Jr, so he was well known. Ben was not yet. Askren was down and... my memory may have made this more dramatic... but as I recall, Askren took him down or reversed him with ~25 seconds left, locked up the cradle and spent the last ~15 seconds with Henning on his back. Henning ended up getting the TD in OT, but great match by a couple of Freshmen. I didn't see Lewis enough, but... I was also thinking Abas and Kolat, Guerrero... and I'm sure a lot of others who I've mostly seen via video.

Figured what out? Seems they figured out nothing, you included. "We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it." What everyone needs to figure out is that Kimmel wasn't calling out the kid as being MAGA, he was calling out MAGA for trying to distance themselves from this kid.

I think Miller is the much better get. I don't buy that Bartlett is waiting on Miller(or even that they're necessarily a package deal)... but I think Miller has the higher upside. Miller gave Duke a helluva match. I think that's.. pretty telling.

Do you suppose it was another maga guy who shot up the ABC news HQ?

Ok play dumb, the rest of the world figured it out.

Forgive me for not accepting your take on the issue. I've heard way to many ridiculous lies this week. I'm sure this is just another gross exaggeration. It's not like PBS is an unbiased source.

That's where your education lets you down. Nothing could be further from the truth. He clearly didn't say that, nor did he imply that in his actual words. You are twisting reality here.

He was clearly try to paint him as a maga guy. It was obvious to most people. He was trying to sell a lie

Nothing, and I mean, nothing about what Kimmel said amounted to anything "vile." Kimmel simply said: "We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it." Wake up people, nothing about what he said is vile or terrible in any way. Nothing at all directed at Kirk. Wasn't attacking Charlie, wasn't celebrating his assassination, wasn't defending the shooter. He was criticizing the far right maga group for trying to benefit from the political fallout. Seems he was pretty close to exactly right.

You can only change your competing nationality once.. so if Russia-Bulgaria transfer is complete (and I assume it can't be rolled back if the money is paid, documents exchanged etc), then Mamedov is stuck with Bulgarian wrestling nationality forever.
