Trump should tell obama, “You didn’t build ICANN. The American tax payer did. It’s not yours to give away.”

This of course is playing on hillary, obama, and Elizabeth Warren’s “You didn’t build that” theme.


So clever and sooo true!!!

“Ted Cruz has yet to endorse Donald Trump for president, but Donald Trump is endorsing Ted Cruz’s top legislative priority.”

Trump puts Americans first; Cruz puts his own ego first.

Let this issue be the Olive Branch that allows both men to work together. If Cruz can impede to stop Obama’s compulsion to throw internet control away, everbody wins.

I am waiting now for Ted to change his position, because he cannot agree with Trump, right?

Hey FReepers, it is urgently important to get the word out and call all the Senators and Reps you possibly can.

Email everyone in your addy book and ask them to do the same!!! Obama wants to sneak this through BEFORE Oct 1st! We’ve only got one week!!!


Agreed and THANK YOU!!!

If Odumbo gives it away, and I know he will try, does that mean FR, Breitbart, Drudge, and others will cease to exist?

Lot of debate about that...I don’t think they will immediately cease to exist; however, globalists are incrementalists and their goal is to suppress speech they don’t like...So ultimately Drudge, FR, Breitbart are targets. Drudge and Breitbart have already been targeted specifically.

One article dis point out some specific immediate concerns regarding the election...

http://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/technology/296840-changing-who-controls-icann-jeopardizes-our-presidential

We paid for DOD and ARPANET that developed the Internet.

Fact that Obama wants to give it away tells me I should be very suspicious!!

As Jim Robinson said:

Giving away control of the internet or any part of it is sheer lunacy.

So I would implore you to contact your elected officials and have them push for a yes vote on HR5418 and SB3034, The Protection of Internet Freedom Act.

I have read some articles alluding to this too :)

Also read that the Ricketts family (Chicago Cubs owner) is now backing Trump.

Trump train getting more cars to carry supporters :)

Note that Ted had years to object to this.

This just posted on Breitbart...Bolton seems to think it will make a huge difference in 10 years won’t be internet as we know it, and we should be very concerned!

The House holds the purse strings and Paul Ryan is untested on this issue so far as I know.

Is their bill scheduled yet?

Easy To Explain why ICANN is dangerous
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3472522/posts

This is the quick way to explain why ICANN is so dangerous.

They essentially ‘govern’ the TLDs [top level domains].

Each TLD [such as .com or .org] runs its own ‘phone directory’.

And ICANN controls them through ‘Registry Operator Code of Conduct’.

Right now ICANN is subject to US law, mainly because its headquarters are in the US. But if ICANN’s contract isn’t renewed, it’s free to move overseas [which it secretly plans to] and modify its ‘Registry Operator Code of Conduct’ for each dot-com or dot-org or ...

... theoretically even our military websites.

Lyin’ Cruz outed himself as just another Establishment RINO with his support of TPP, NO BORDERS for his Goldman-Sucks puppetmasters, and so many more treasonous acts.

Add the fact he has yet to provide any documentation he is a US citizen.

Lyin’ Cruz is just faking his ICANN knowing Bitch McConnell gave him cover.

I agree. Trump proved himself to be the bigger man and more presidential.

Cruz lets personal grudges get in the way. Trump doesn’t.

At Trump’s level of competition, enduring grudges are rare. Two Masters of the Universe will beat the hell out of each other - one will seduce the other’s mustress, in return one will seduce the other’s daughter, but when it’s over the get together and do what’s important: make money with each other.

It’s difficult for earthers like me to fathom, but there was an exchange in “Mr Robot” earlier this season where a big shot corporate guy tells a young woman that at their level, “grudges aren’t a thing.” And he’s largely right.

I suspect Cruz worked hard on this regardless of why.

Here’s an example:

Cruz, Lankford, and Lee Raise New Concerns About ICANN’s Relationship with Authoritarian China

https://www.cruz.senate.gov/?p=press_release&id=2603

[That was back in March.]

It’s enormous the research it took to draft that open letter. And it shows compelling evidence that China secretly built a compoud for ICANN [or a good part of its staff] to relocate [and China’s been helping them in numerous ways].
