One or two examples of leftist pseudo-reality: Links 2, December 12, 2019

1. The man with the muslim name who murdered his (ex?) wife and children after much police activity in their family past

2. Left Attacks President Trump For Executive Order On Combatting Antisemitism

Just one day after two Black Hebrew Israelites targeted a kosher supermarket in Jersey City, killing one police officer and three private citizens, President Trump signed an executive order designed to address growing antisemitism on college campuses. The Order permits the federal government to deny funding to universities that don’t properly address the rising epidemic of Jew-hatred on their campuses. 

 

Of course, the left is melting down Twitter with embarrassing hot takes.

The order directs those departments enforcing Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to adopt the definition of antisemitism formally recognized by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA). Title VI states, “No person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”

5. Election results 2019: Tories on course to win majority – exit poll

The survey taken at UK polling stations suggests the Tories will get 368 MPs – 50 more than at the 2017 election – when all the results have been counted.

 

Labour would get 191, the Lib Dems 13, the Brexit Party none and the SNP 55.

 

In early results, the Tories have won three Leave-voting former Labour strongholds in the north of England.

In one of the first seats to declare, the Conservatives took Blyth Valley, the first time the former mining area, which voted Leave in the EU referendum, will have a Conservative MP.

 

The Tories also took Workington, in Cumbria, and Darlington from Labour.

The Scottish National Party have made their first gain of the night, taking Rutherglen and Hamilton West from Labour.

6. Facebook ordered to reactivate CasaPound’s profile

(ANSA) – Rome, December 12 – A Roma civil court on Thursday upheld CasaPound’s appeal against Facebook’s decision to close the far-right party’s profile in September and ordered the social network to reopen it. The court also ordered Facebook to pay CasaPound 15,000 euros in damages, the party said.

 

“A entity that is not on Facebook is effectively excluded from (or extremely limited) the Italian political debate,” the ruling said. A Facebook spokesman told ANSA in September that the profile was closed as part of its policy against persons or organizations that “spread hatred or attack others on the basis of who they are”.

Thank you Richard, M., Yucki, Wrath of Khan, Xanthippa, EB., and all who sent in materials today.

There is another video or two to publish but the platforms are finicky tonight and it may have to wait till the morning. An Italian one of special note. Also it appears that Boris now has what is needed for a no-deal BREXIT. We can finally test his mettle this coming week.
