    Tim was one of the only people who took a significant stand against the rigging in 2016, who fought for accountability, who made more people aware of the reality surrounding election fraud. He's never given up this fight and has my complete respect and support.

    Social media corporations have destroyed freedom of the press. You can thank neoliberal right-wing Democrats, who after rigging the election against Bernie could not accept the loss of Clinton. So they created Russiagate and lobbied for endless censorship

    Certainly Republicans did their share pushing censorship of Iranian, Venezuelan, Cuban, & other foreign media outlets But the sad truth is neoliberal right-wing Democrats fueled this massive wave of censorship with Russiagate conspiracies and obsession with fake "disinformation"

    The Royal Institute cancels this high-profile event aiming at "a sober discussion on the legal, policy & reputational implications of the case”. So, after 100yrs of “Independent Thinking”, has got cold feet. Thanks for picking up the slack!
