The Rasmussen poll, one of the most accurate polls of the 2020 election, finds President Trump’s approval is actually rising after Wednesday‘s protests. As Democrats move to impeachment and some establishment Republicans call for the 25th Amendment to remove Trump, the poll finds 48% approve of the President’s job performance. A source close to the polling firm tells Newsmax that the rolling survey saw Trump’s approval soar to 51% on Thursday night. Trump’s approval has been up overall, jumping from 45% just before Christmas. “Americans are disgusted that cities burned for months and Washington and the media did nothing,” our...

A major leak containing a register with the details of nearly two million CCP members has occurred – exposing members who are now working all over the world, while also lifting the lid on how the party operates under Xi Jinping, says Sharri Markson. Ms Markson said the leak is a register with the details of Communist Party members, including their names, party position, birthday, national ID number and ethnicity. “It is believed to be the first leak of its kind in the world,” the Sky News host said. “What's amazing about this database is not just that it exposes...

2. Looks like they're asking for the following two things: #1 - an immediate injunction on the crooked PA Governor Wolf & SOS Bookhvar to stop them from certifying the PA election. Justice Alito will decide this, I suspect. #2 - review (certiorari) of the constitutional issues arising from the decision to hoodwink the PA legislature, on late counting of ballots/no signature requirements. That will be before the whole court, if granted. They've asked for that decision to be made ASAP. 3. Note - they've specifically included reference to the rogue & corrupt PASC. You will recall that the PA...

Straightforward from here: ▶️GOP controls state legislatures in key swing states ▶️Legislatures convinced of fraud; send own/no electors ▶️Biden deprived of 270 ▶️State delegations in House re-elect Trump 26-23 "So the outcome would be to re-elect Donald Trump."

Of note, Pres. Trump said in today's press conference that dealing with the election fraud may be the most important thing he's ever done. Joe Biden is currently negotiating for a get out of jail card for him and his family. So are the others. The window to carry off this crime has closed. Schiff, Pelosi etc are compromised veteran crooks. Believe it or not, but I think it's Kamala Harris. She's an opportunist, extremely ruthless and cynical, disloyal, happy to switch positions and allies at a moment's notice.

7. Trump has amassed a mighty arsenal of truth MOABs that will detonate around the crooks, exposing them all. THEY LOSE. And how awesome will it be when President Trump announces General Flynn as a key member of his second term administration? Obama & Biden are TERRIFIED of Gen Flynn. They ALL are. Today is their worst nightmare. Now we watch as they fall.

Unknown to most Americans, a parallel legal regime allows the president to sidestep many of the constraints that normally apply. The moment the president declares a “national emergency”—a decision that is entirely within his discretion—more than 100 special provisions become available to him.

Alan Dershowitz, a Harvard Law professor emeritus, said President Donald Trump has several legal paths to a 2020 victory. Last week, Dershowitz noted that if Trump can “keep the Biden count below 270, then the matter goes to the House of Representatives, where, of course, there is a Republican majority among the delegations of states, and you vote by state if it goes to the House. “Congress has the absolute right to reject the submitted Electoral College votes of any state, which we believe has such a shoddy election system that you can’t trust the election results that those states...

10. If what Sidney Powell is alleging is credible, this is one of the most serious national security situations America has ever faced. Foreign actors, working with American citizens, are trying to steal an American Presidential election. Unlike the Obama/Clinton Trump/Russia hoax, this one is REAL.

Pres Trump received 72,413,555 votes (according to Failing nyt), more votes than the number of people living in 91% of the 235 countries in the world.

President Trump turned up the heat on his hapless opponent on Friday following a New York Post bombshell report on the contents of a laptop reportedly abandoned by Hunter Biden. During a swing through the key battleground state of Florida, Trump tore into the Bidens who he likened to an "organized crime family" and also likened Hunter Biden to a "vacuum cleaner" who "follows his father around collecting" money.

It's not unusual for the French to comment on anything American and normally in the negative. What is rare is a Frenchman saying something positive about Americans; in this case heaping praise on our soldiers in Afghanistan.

The tool lets users upload their photos, then view a classical-style faux watercolor, oil, or ink portrait based on the photo a few seconds later. Each one is unique. The tool’s creators at the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab used generative adversarial network (GAN) models, a popular AI technique. It involves getting two neural networks to duel each other to produce an acceptable outcome: a generator, which looks at examples and tries to mimic them, and a discriminator, which judges if they are real by comparing them with the same training examples. In this case, they used 45,000 portrait images to...

Beginning last week, Kazakhstan’s government is intercepting all HTTPS traffic inside the country, ZDNet reports. HTTPS is a protocol meant to offer encryption, security, and privacy to users, but now the nation’s internet service providers are forcing all users to install certificates that enable pervasive interception and surveillance. On Wednesday, Kazakh internet users were redirected to web pages instructing them to install the government’s root certificate in their web browser, which enables what’s called “man in the middle” interception of internet traffic, decryption, and surveillance. We reached out to browser developers and certificate authorities Google, Microsoft, and Mozilla to ask...

Silicon Valley’s biggest companies are always watching you — even when you’re browsing pornography websites in incognito mode. What these companies might be doing with pornography-site browsing data is a mystery. Oracle, which owns a number of large data brokers and has been called a “privacy deathstar,” could, for example add data collected by trackers with its current profiles. Dr. Maris argues that this lack of disclosure is similar to the issue of sexual consent. “As in any sexual interaction, silence must not be mistaken for consent,” she said. “Individuals should have a clear understanding of the power dynamics of...

An Amazon user in Germany was accidentally sent 1,700 audio recordings of someone he didn’t know after he requested his own data file, exercising his rights under the EU’s GDPR. A magazine listened to the files and was able to put together a detailed picture of the other user and his personal habits. They worked out which devices he owns, which music he likes, and who his girlfriend is, and even listened to him in the shower. They tracked down the victim, who confirmed it was he and said that Amazon had not informed him about the leak.

The Jetson prototype can pick up on a unique cardiac signature from 200 meters away, even through clothes. Everyone’s heart is different. Like the iris or fingerprint, our unique cardiac signature can be used as a way to tell us apart. Crucially, it can be done from a distance. It’s that last point that has intrigued US Special Forces. Other long-range biometric techniques include gait analysis, which identifies someone by the way he or she walks. This method was supposedly used to identify an infamous ISIS terrorist before a drone strike. But gaits, like faces, are not necessarily distinctive. An...

The trouble started in early 2017 when Relotius arrived to profile a rural Midwestern community in a county that had voted for Trump in the 2016 presidential race. The idea, Der Spiegel later said, was to give readers better insight into Americans.

What does the world’s most evil man think about when he wakes up in the morning on Christmas Eve? The answer, of course, is obvious; he thinks about singling out a random seven-year-old girl – because misogyny and because he hates kids – and completely crushing her soul by questioning the one thing that makes Christmas special for little children.

GOOGLE has forced employees to delete a confidential memo circulating inside the company that revealed explosive details about a plan to launch a censored search engine in China, The Intercept has learned. The memo, authored by a Google engineer who was asked to work on the project, disclosed that the search system, codenamed Dragonfly, would require users to log in to perform searches, track their location — and share the resulting history with a Chinese partner who would have “unilateral access” to the data. The memo confirms, as The Intercept first reported last week, that users’ searches would be associated...
