The Washington Post, whose sole owner is both a CIA contractor and one of the wealthiest plutocrats of all time, has sent its Bezos-paid Ringwraiths after small independent reporters for having the temerity to talk about a lawsuit that had severe implications for the future of democracy in America.

We are a REPUBLIC!
And where is Bezos in all of this? Is this the reason he doesn’t have to fear an anti-trust action?
According to some grotty little blog, that is.
A grotty little blog that explains a lot!
Yes, the United States is a representative republic.
But The Washington Post doesn’t necessarily agree.... it changed its masthead when Trump was elected to say: “Democracy Dies in Darkness.”
The left insists on democracy, on mob rule.
Thanks for this.
We should probably prohibit Freepers from linking to her!
Bkmk
Just good to know what/who we are dealing with.
According to some grotty little blog, that is.

Bezos took $600,000,000.00 from the CIA for “cloud computing services” when he was looking for cash to buy the Washington Post... The post cost $250,000,000.00 ... When does the CIA put anything on “the cloud” out of their control? They bought $350M in “journ-o-list-ism”. My question is what do they have on him?
Washington Post / Operation Mockingbird bump for later...

$600 million for a job tat cost $5. and takes 15 minutes.
“And where is Bezos in all of this? Is this the reason he doesn’t have to fear an anti-trust action?’
There has been very little anti-trust action since the Reagan administration. As a result, corporations have purchased their competitors, reducing competition and jobs, while at the same time increasing their economic and political power. Look at Wal-Mart’s growth and dominance of the retail sector in the 1990’s under both Republican and Democrat administrations. Big pharma, the result of decades of consolidation, has reduced competition and raised prices to consumers exponentially. Now we see the same thing in healthcare providers as big hospital groups first dominated healthcare in towns and are now expanding across states eliminating independent physicians. Who can forget the “too big to fail banks” in 2008 which should have been broken up in the bankruptcy courts but instead were bailed out by the taxpayer and are now bigger and more powerful than ever.
Don’t expect anti-trust action under Trump. Goldman Sachs is inside the tent at the Trump White House, just as it was in the Clinton, Bush, and Obama administrations.
What was also disconcerting to me, besides the whole CIA big money propaganda thing, is the photo of Bezos enjoying his visit with Sec of Def Mattis at Amazon.
