FR Management should ban posts from Breitbart

Posted on 04/24/2016 2:58:24 AM PDT by markomalley

I've started to see Breitbart host more and more pro-Cruz propaganda items on their sites. If they're going to continue posting anti-Trump lies and deception, they should go the way of "Right Scoop" and not be allowed to be posted on this site.

For example, this morning I come across a scurrilous piece by Dr Susan Berry, Donald Trump Foundation Donated $20K to Public School LGBT Activist Group GLSEN. Not saying that it's true, but even if it was, since when would Donald Trump have day-to-day management control on each and every donation made. Besides, it was 4 years ago. What relevance is this to today?

This just shows that it may not be a reliable news source any longer. I think articles from this source should be banned from FR.

I agree that Breitbart is not a Trump advocate but don't have issues with that very much. However, in terms of 1A, why is DU banned here?

BTW, I hate the people who spew filth that I've observed over there.

Not mom health, the life of the mother.

I think Cruz realizes this is his only shot (same with Kasich), so he’s definitely pushing the envelope of acceptability.

You couldn't be more wrong.

What we are seeing is history being repeated. Ford vs. Reagan. Ford didn't have enough delegates, but was close and was able to win over enough to secure the nomination. Ford got beat by our 2nd worst POTUS ever, Carter. Reagan came back in 4 yrs and won big! Today Trump is Ford and Cruz is Reagan. Right now it looks like Trump might get the nomination, but he will be beaten badly by hillary. The American people won't elect a vulgar, low character, lying, bully. Cruz will continue to fight for conservatives and come back in 4 years.

If Trump is the nominee the fight will be to save conservatives in the House and Senate from being voted out in Nov..

Do we really need to create a Safe Zone for any conservatives who have their feelings hurt??

Apparently. It appears that to many here dissent is not going to be tolerated.

I'd better STHU.

I've said my peace. OBTZ, as they say.

Trump has promised many things ...

That's certainly true. However, if a putative President Trump were to deliver on his promises, that would be irrelevant to the conformity of the nation's people with God's will.

Seems to me that people here want their cake (the election of Trump) and they want to eat it too (destroying the infrastructure on which Trump must rely in order to beat the democrats).

If I might add, what they want is to take over the GOP and become the new "Blue Dog Rats", strong on defense and liberal on social issues.

This will be my last post. I will see you folks 4 years from now when my Senator runs against the incumbent Hildabeast.
Fact is, trump supporters would never go for this had it been the reverse

bye bye

I can't agree more...

I've been a constitutionalist conservative for 35 years...

I simply cannot support a candidate who isn't one...

I will vote for him to help stop Hillary...which at least will shake up the political landscape...

This Republic is toast...why do I know this?

Simple: a whole generation, millions of young people have bought Sanders communist light positions hook, line, sinker, swallowed the whole damn boat...

They have no concept of capitalism, economics...

Consider them evil and unfair...

We are screwed...

The article doesn't mention that the donation came from a contestant on a Trump show won 20k to a charity of her choice and that awful gay rights one is the charity she picked. This issue was brought and debunked moths ago.

And the person who started this thread did it for express purposes of spreading the lie from Breitbart while pretending to be against it.

Welcome to CIA level disinformation from from Ted Cruz's former CIA guy who runs his troll army.

That’s up to Jim; he can restrict what he wants on a private website. Again, the remedy for speech with which one disageees is more speech. To compare Breitbart with Stormfront is specious and wrong. Compare SF with what many left wing blogs post — equally hateful.

I’m simply informing what was said. I don’t agree with it.

"Please point out on this thread where I did that...?"

I'm not trying to say that you did. I'm only pointing out the new policy of the site.

I am a constitutional conservatives who believes that the biggest problem in America is not the GOP or the establishment or any political party. The biggest problem in America is that America is unhinged from its moorings. We have left our first love so to speak and we are drifting into a malestrom of moral and spiritual decline.

Part of the problem is people don't understand what a constitutional conservative is. We don't believe the constitution is a living document that changes with the times. We believe the constitution is the foundation of our govt and all changes, laws, structuring of govt, authority must be consistent with it. We were established as a Republic not a democracy in order to avoid mob rule.

The moral decline in this country is directly tied to the severing of the foundation that all our laws were supposed to be consistent with, the Scriptures. Now the laws governing acceptable behavior are subject to the emotions of the mob.

I really doubt Trump understands any of this, so far he's shown no depth on any issue, especially social issues.

Free republic or Trumprepublic now wants to ban postings from sites that are not 100% pro Trump.
TrumpRepublic now wants to ban long time Freepers that don't support Trump.
My Beeber is literally stuned by the amazing flip flop that has taken place here since Mr. Trump decided to run this time on the Republican ticket.
