We’re looking at Obama’s third term and its ugly.
Flopping Aces ^ | 11-18-20 | DrJohn

We all know that Joe Biden is in significant cognitive decline. The media won’t ask him a single difficult question. They stick to his favorite ice cream and favorite colors. We had suspicions as to who would be truly running the show but they crystallized last weekend.

I didn’t watch the whole thing, but the little I saw of the 60 Minutes interview with obama brought me a horrible realization. A Biden victory really is obama’s third term.

And it was frightening to hear him speak. A new policy looms- significant restrictions on free speech.

Biden signaled that he is amenable to restrictions on free speech with the appointment of an anti-free speech advocate to his transition team:

In the Post op-ed, “Why America needs a hate speech law,” Stengel argued:

[A]s a government official traveling around the world championing the virtues of free speech, I came to see how our First Amendment standard is an outlier.

All speech is not equal. And where truth cannot drive out lies, we must add new guardrails. I’m all for protecting “thought that we hate,” but not speech that incites hate.

As Breitbart News noted in May, Stengel, an MSNBC analyst, also defended restrictions on speech about the coronavirus:

The First Amendment doesn’t protect false speech about a virus or false speech that endangers the health of your users. And by the way, Facebook and Twitter have been taking things down, but they need to be even more vigilant about it, and Google needs to be even more vigilant about what they prioritize in their search results.

As you know, Big Tech is waging a war to control the flow on information and the mainstream media won’t report on things not flattering to the left, i.e. Antifa/BLM violence.

Then we got to hear obama weigh in and here’s where it gets really scary. First:

Scott Pelley: (06:48) President Elect Biden won in this election, more votes than anyone in history and yet the 2020 vote wasn’t a repudiation of Donald Trump, it was more like an affirmation. He received 71 million votes, 8 million more than he did in 2016. What does that tell you about our country today?

Barack Obama: (07:13) A, it tells us that we’re very divided and as I said, it’s not just the politicians now, the voters are divided. It has now become a contest where issues, facts, policies per se, don’t matter as much as identity and wanting to beat the other guy. That’s taken priority. I do think the current media environment adds to that greatly. This democracy doesn’t work if we don’t have an informed citizenry. This democracy doesn’t work if we don’t have a responsible elected officials at other levels who are willing to call the president when he’s not doing something right. Call him on it.

And then the shoe drops
Scott Pelley: (08:30) How do we overcome where we are today?

Barack Obama: (08:33) There’s no American figure that I admire any more than Abraham Lincoln, but he did end up with a civil war on his hands. I think we’d like to avoid that. I do think that a new president can set a new tone. That’s not going to solve all the gridlock in Washington. I think we’re going to have to work with the media and with the tech companies to find ways to inform the public better about the issues and to bolster the standards that ensure we can separate truth from fiction. I think that we have to work at a local level.

That’s what we need- Big Tech to control the flow of information. Zuckerberg and Osama Bin Dorsey dictating what the “truth” really is.

We already know how this would work. All conservative speech would be hate speech and censored. Aided by Big Tech the “government” would allow you to know only what suited its needs and desires. Josh Hawley proved that yesterday:

As a "community organizer" Obama sued banks for not giving mortgages to people on welfare, disability, the jobless.....

As president he sued banks for burdening people on welfare, disability, the jobless w/ mortgages they cannot possibly ever repay.

Which is why obamaumao is going to be taken out of the levers of any kind of shadow illegal minions. We’ll know when he leaves ‘the vineyahhhhd” and hauls A@@ to Qatar at his gift home, unextraditable. Or, more Carribean location, in US Patriot control. He is scared shiteless beta butt pirate loving “male”... at this point (crying for valjar to hep him, with her iranian pals).

FINALLY! Someone agrees with me that obama is behind the Biden crisis. Everyone in America dares not mention this because “racist” you know. So, the “articulate” negro is the facilitator to deliver America to the one world puppet masters. It’s just too obvious. Look at the Democrats who ran for president. Who were the two weakest candidates? Why was it such a surprise when Biden won? Why did the strongest candidates simply dropped out without warning? Why did it take so long for Biden to choose a VP? Why weak Harris, a black woman? Who had all the “background” skill, information & contacts? Why did O lurk in the background until it looked like Joe was not doing so well and then jumped in to campaign for him? Even he couldn’t draw a crowd, but he knew how to cheat. Man, I wish I had kept all those books I had on Barry.

“Can you imagine this pompous a$$ for another 4 years?”

Apparently that’s who we will have for at least 8 more years, like it or not, unless Trump can pull off a miracle.

True. They get away with stealing this one, and gain control of the apparatus of the intel agencies, America ends. I look at those I know who are Biden voters and finally grasp why Jews in Weimar Germany didn’t leave because they didn’t think Hitler would go that far. The Muslim Brotherhood, the Democrat Socialists and the Chinese are just waiting for us to reopen the door.
