Speech...

 In the United States, the First Amendment of the Constitution is sacrosanct:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
Congress shall not pass laws curtailing the freedom of speech. Congress shall not pass laws curbing the freedom of the press.
In the public imaginary, the First Amendment has turned into the notion that no one  should engage in any act that  limits someone else’s ability to speak.
As a result, it’s common for someone to accuse someone else for violating their first amendment, even though that’s absurd. 
Choosing what  the Media outlet to amplify is not the same as curtailing someone’s ability to speak. 
Just a thought.

Safe Zone...





The US military destroyed its own anti-ISIS headquarters in Syria to prevent them from falling into the hands of fighters backed by Turkey.
According to WSJ, Turkish troops advanced on the facility, which had been used to equip and train SDF fighters against ISIS, leading US officials to quickly withdraw US troops and destroy the base.
As the Turkish-back fighters moved closer, US troops attempted to repel them, using F-15s and Apache helicopters as a show of force to warn them away while US troops were still there.

But, according to The Wall Street Journal, the airpower failed to dissuade the Turkish forces; SDF fighters fled and set fire to their part of the base, and US troops left before US assets destroyed the base.
It is also unclear what was being held in the base.

The new safe zone is what Turkey asked for it for so long to settle the Syrian refugees 4 millions of them to return back to their own country.

Want to watch a left-leaning TV journalist quickly change the subject? Just mention Hunter Biden, son of former Vice President Joe Biden.
“For news shows on MSNBC, CNN and other cable networks, nothing is more disgusting than the mention of what Hunter Biden actually was doing in Ukraine,” law professor Jonathan Turley of George Washington University writes in The Hill.
“What is most remarkable about the paucity of coverage of Hunter Biden’s dealings,” he adds, “is the conclusory mantra that, ‘This has all been investigated.’”
Turley, 58, a native of Chicago, cites examples of MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace cutting away from a speech by President Trump when he started to discuss the Bidens; NBC’s  Chuck Todd accusing Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., of trying to “gaslight” viewers by referencing the Bidens while answering a question about Ukraine; and CNN’s Erin Burnett switching to a discussion of President Trump when Rep. Lee Zeldin, R-N.Y., tries to discuss the Bidens

Timber...

Timber Sycamore was a classified weapons supply and training program run by the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and supported by some Arab intelligence services, such as the security service in Saudi Arabia. Launched in 2012 or 2013.

It supplied money, weaponry and training to rebel forces fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the Syrian Civil War. According to US officials, the program was run by the CIA's Special Activities Division [6] has trained thousands of rebels.[7][8] President Barack Obama secretly authorized the CIA to begin arming Syria’s embattled rebels in 2013.[9]

According to American and Jordanian officials, weapons shipped into Jordan by the CIA and Saudi Arabia were stolen by Jordanian intelligence officials in the General Intelligence Directorate (Jordan) and sold on the black market.[26][14] 

The magnitude of the theft amounted to millions of dollars, and FBI officials state that some of the stolen weapons were later used to kill two American contractors, two Jordanians and one South African at a police training station in Jordan.[7][26] Arms received via Timber Sycamore have flooded Middle Eastern black markets with heavy weaponry.

So when we here the outcome, so far, of the death, homelessness, refugees, and the misery of it all, here is the Obama/Biden administration.
