Lara Loomer was right and she is owed an apology.
In September of 2018, Lara Loomer crashed a Congressional Hearing in Washington DC. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey was presenting before a hearing of the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
During the hearing, Loomer interrupted the proceedings and began to call out Jack and Twitter for shadow-banning conservatives. She also accused him of trying to steal the 2020 Election.
While speaking out about Jack, Missouri GOP Rep. Billy Long attempted to drown out Loomer’s interruption by showing off his auctioneering skills. This was an unforgettable moment in House politics.
Looking back, however, Loomer was right.
People do need to acknowledge she was right when she did that, everyone knew it was the truth. And Republicans allowed her to be banished for ‘her style’ of messaging. Which may not be everyone’s, but the message was true. She is owed an apology by the GOP and the media. https://t.co/foFVp2DRhk

This was not the first time Jack made this claim. Jack Dorsey at Twitter declared to the world that Twitter was not shadow-banning individual accounts back in 2018.
Following up on this with a lot more detail. We don’t shadow ban, and we certainly don’t shadow ban based on political viewpoints. We do rank tweets by default to make Twitter more immediately relevant (which can be flipped off). More on ranking signals: https://t.co/ORjJfyBvhc

Loomer was also right about the fake Kamala Harris stunt in Florida.
She also was right about not placing Proud Boys in the same camp as racist, violent, and anti-semetic groups like Black Lives Matter.
Loomer has a unique way of sharing it but she is often right on target.

Australia‘s peak actuarial body has asked the government to urgently investigate the country’s “incredibly high” 13% excess death rate in 2022.
What Happened: An analysis of Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data by the Actuaries Institute showed that an additional 15,400 people died in the first eight months of the year in the country.
Actuaries said that number includes around one-third of those having no link to COVID-19.
13% was an “incredibly high number for mortality,” and it was “not clear” what was driving the increase, said Karen Cutter, spokeswoman for the institute’s Covid-19 Mortality Working Group.
“Mortality doesn’t normally vary by more than 1 to 2%, so 13% is way higher than normal levels,” she said.
“I’m not aware [of anything comparable] in the recent past but I haven’t gone back and looked [historically]. They talk about the flu season of 2017 being really bad, and the mortality there was 1% higher than normal. So it’s well outside the range of normal,” she said.
This came after Australia’s latest mortality data released in November showed that there had been 128,797 deaths from Jan. 1 to Aug. 31, which was 17% higher than the historical average.
Twitter CEO Elon Musk announced Wednesday that he thinks it is likely that some data that was contained in files on Twitter servers has been hidden and deleted since he vowed to make everything public.
Musk was responding to former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, who asked Musk to release everything “without filter.”
Musk responded “Most important data was hidden (from you too) and some may have been deleted, but everything we find will be released.”

Musk then tweeted a quote from poet Walter Scott about deception.
Oh, what a tangled web they weave, when first they practice to …
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) December 7, 2022
Musk’s comments come in the wake of the ‘exiting’ of James Baker, the FBI affiliated Twitter Deputy General Counsel who was revealed to have vetted the first round of files, mostly concerning the censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story, before they were sent to journalist Matt Taibbi.
Only discovered this on Sunday

James Baker was the FBI's asset at Twitter and scrubbed the Twitter Files before Matt Taibbi received them
— Jack Posobiec
He has just been escorted from Twitter HQ
And you wondered why there were no references found to the FBI and the Hunter laptop…(@JackPosobiec) December 6, 2022
The development has prompted accusations that ‘deep state’ fuckery is afoot:
Jim Baker as an FBI lawyer received the fake Trump/Alpha Bank story from Hillary's campaign, was involved with the Steele Dossier, personally approved the FISA warrant to spy on Carter Page, and supported censoring the laptop as Twitter deputy counsel
— Greg Price (@greg_price11) December 6, 2022
You can't make this shit up https://t.co/Wq2C084CLE
Oh yeah and Jim Baker was part of the FBI team who approved sending a special agent to collect intelligence on Michael Flynn.
— Greg Price (@greg_price11) December 6, 2022
The man is quite literally the Forrest Gump of the swamp.
House GOP leaders suggested Wednesday that they could pursue legal action in the matter of Baker and the suppression of the laptop story in 2020.
Meanwhile, it has now been revealed via emails that an employee at the CDC and an employee at the US Census Bureau had access to Twitter’s dedicated “Partner Support Portal,” which allows approved government partners to flag content to Twitter for censorship.
Yesterday, the White House refused to answer questions on communications with Twitter before Musk took over:
As we highlighted Wednesday, Senator Ted Cruz described the Twitter situation as “evidence of corruption that goes to the highest level of government,” adding that “This was all about weaponizing big tech.”

On Wednesday, US political prisoner Ryan Samsel called The Gateway Pundit to tell us he has lost his phone privileges for six months starting tomorrow. The prison staff is outraged that The Gateway Pundit has exposed his horribly abusive story to the American public. Ryan, who has not even had his case tried in court and has sat in prison for nearly two years, has been beaten, hogtied, abused, tied to a chair for 12 hours, and denied medical treatment for his injuries and his precancerous growths.
On March 21, 2021, after his arrest, Ryan was awakened by correctional officers and his hands were zip-tied. Then they walked him to an unoccupied cell where he was brutally beaten by the officers. Ryan Samsel lost an eye in the beating. His face was smashed. The next day the guards beat him again.
Ryan was beaten so badly by the guards that he lost permanent vision in one eye and partial use of his arm.
** Please give to Ryan Samsel’s GiveSendGo account here. This man desperately needs funding.
Ryan is one of several January 6 prisoners who have been held for nearly two years in prison without ever being convicted of a crime.
Ryan told The Gateway Pundit on Wednesday, the prison officials told him this week, “Your stuff with Gateway Pundit has to stop.” The staff mentioned TGP contributors Cara Castronuovo and Jim Hoft by name.
“They actually said Cara and they also said, Jim Hoft with the Gateway Pundit that we need to stop reaching out [because] we are causing trouble,” Ryan said.
“I’m 39 years old. I’m not looking to be famous. I don’t consider myself a patriot or hero. I’m just an American fulfilling my duties to uphold the constitutional rights that we have.”
Ryan says the complaints against him are coming from Washington, DC. The FBI also wants to speak with him, but he is not interested in speaking with them.
“They’re really pissed off that you’re publishing stuff on our behalf,” Ryan told The Gateway Pundit. “I was pulled aside by security here, pretty much said that it’s coming from DC.”
By “stuff,” they mean he is not allowed to tell his story to our media outlet. The regime is afraid the truth will come out, and Americans would object to their brutality and lawlessness.
Ryan also brought up the topic of how his condition deteriorated while he was imprisoned in the DC Gulag.
“I went to the hospital here, Jim… And the hospital said that I have a possible malignancy in my left breast and I have clots. And he recommended that I be placed on blood thinners, that I see hematology, eye doctor… I get physical rehab and be placed on tramadol.”
The Gateway Pundit is one of the only media outlets that regularly speaks with these men who are being held in the DC Gulag and around the country for their attendance and alleged actions at the January 6th protests.
“What I have to do is if I want my own medical, I have to hire an outside doctor, which is an independent doctor, and he will do the study. I do want to thank the callers and your listeners in helping to raise money. Surgery and these doctors are not cheap. But in the end, Jim, I want to tell you, you’ve been the only one so far that has been transparent, truthful, and honest,” said Ryan.
“And I want to say that you have the most integrity and that’s why I choose to speak to you,” he added.

The Biden regime is outraged that Americans are donating to these poor abused men.

A staggering number of Nigerians love Bitcoin, but hate government cryptocurrency (CBDCs).
In April, leading cryptocurrency exchange KuCoin noted that 35% of the adult population in Nigeria - roughly 34 million adults aged 18-60, own bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. But when it came to the country's Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), the eNaira, it was a massive failure.
According to Bloomberg, only 1 in 200 Nigerians use the eNaira - despite government implemented discounts and other incentives, implemented as desperate measures to increase adoption.
Now, the government is looking to boost digital payments by limiting ATM withdrawals to just 20,000 naira, or roughly US$45 per day, Bloomberg reports, citing a circular sent to lenders on Tuesday. The previous withdrawal limit was 150,000 naira (US$350).
Weekly cash withdrawals from banks are now limited (without fee) to 100,000 naira (US$225) for individuals, and 500,000 naira (US$1,125) for corporations. Any amount above this will incur a fee of 5% and 10% respectively.
The action is the latest in a string of central bank orders aimed at limiting the use of cash and expand digital currencies to help improve access to banking. In Nigeria’s largely informal economy, cash outside banks represents 85% of currency in circulation and almost 40 million adults are without a bank account.
The central bank last month announced plans to issue redesigned high value notes from mid-December to mop up excess cash and it’s given residents until the end of January to turn in their old notes. The bank also plans to mint more of the eNaira digital currency, which was launched last year but has faced slow adoption. -Bloomberg
What's more, new rules which will take effect Jan. 9 will ban the cashing of checks above 50,000 naira (US$112) over-the-counter, and 10 million naira (US$22,480) through the banking systems. Point-of-sale cash withdrawals have been capped at 20,000 naira ($45).
Meanwhile, banks are only allowed to load their ATMs with 200 naira denominations and under, while individuals and corporations will be allowed to cash a maximum of 5 million and 10 million naira respectively if there are "compelling circumstances not exceeding once a month," and which will be subject to enhanced due diligence along with processing fees, according to the central bank. Such withdrawals will also require the approval of a bank CEO.
"Customers should be encouraged to use alternative channels—Internet banking, mobile banking apps, USSD, cards, POS, eNaira to conduct their banking transactions," said the central bank on Tuesday.
The Gateway Pundit reported on Pete Schwartz back in December 2021. He had already been in prison for nearly a year at that point.
The regime kept Pete in the hole for six months in the last two years.
Peter Schwartz, age 47 and a Kentucky welder who has served in the Army Reserve, was indicted after he was accused of pepper-spraying officers during the Jan. 6 protest. He was arrested on Feb. 2nd in Uniontown, Pennsylvania. According to his letter, he was with his wife when 30 agents assaulted him with flashbang grenades, armored vehicles, and more than 10 assault rifles aimed at his chest.
“At no point did either my wife or I resist but we were both roughly handled and forced/dragged up the stairs after being shackled and handcuffed as we were shoved around,” Schwartz said.
Pete went to court this past week in Washington DC. The government paired him up with two other defendants he had never met or communicated with to strengthen their case.
On Tuesday the DC jury found Pete and his codefendants guilty on every single charge. There were no victims. The prosecution presented no witnesses.

On Wednesday Pete Schwartz called The Gateway Pundit after he was found guilty on every single count. There were 11 counts against Pete and the two co-defendants that he never has seen in his life and never met before the trial. The jury did not even read over the evidence before they voted to sentence the three Trump supporters.
Pete Schwartz told The Gateway Pundit that Juror #8 flipped him off as they read the guilty verdict against him where he was found guilty on every single count.
Pete was found guilty of obstruction of an official proceeding despite the fact that he NEVER entered the US Capitol or as Pete says, “I never even touched the Capitol.”
This is a travesty of justice.

The Comirnaty COVID vaccine has met the MHRA’s required safety, quality and effectiveness standards to be authorised for use in this age group
Authorisation has today been granted for a new presentation of the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine (Comirnaty) for use in infants and children aged 6 months to 4 years.
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has authorised the vaccine in this new age group after it has been found to meet the UK regulator’s standards of safety, quality and effectiveness, with no new safety concerns identified. This decision has been endorsed by the Commission on Human Medicines, after a careful review of the evidence.
This presentation is specially designed for this new age group and given at a lower dose compared to that used in individuals aged 5 to 11 years (3 micrograms compared with 10 micrograms). It is given as three injections in the upper arm, with the first two doses given 3 weeks apart, followed by a third dose given at least 8 weeks after the second dose.
In reaching their decision, the MHRA’s experts carefully reviewed data from an ongoing clinical trial involving 4,526 participants. The common, expected side effects (reactogenicity) were in-keeping with what can be anticipated from a vaccine in this age group.
It will be for the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) to determine if the vaccine will be recommended for use in this age group as part of the UK’s COVID-19 vaccination programme.
I suppose that we should have known that this was inevitable. After establishing a precedent during the pandemic, now the elite apparently intend to impose lockdowns for other reasons as well. What I have detailed in this article is extremely alarming, and I hope that you will share it with everyone that you can. Climate change lockdowns are here, and if people don’t respond very strongly to this it is likely that we will soon see similar measures implemented all over the western world. The elite have always promised to do “whatever it takes” to fight climate change, and now we are finding out that they weren’t kidding.
Over in the UK, residents of Oxfordshire will now need a special permit to go from one “zone” of the city to another. But even if you have the permit, you will still only be allowed to go from one zone to another “a maximum of 100 days per year”…
Oxfordshire County Council yesterday approved plans to lock residents into one of six zones to ‘save the planet’ from global warming. The latest stage in the ’15 minute city’ agenda is to place electronic gates on key roads in and out of the city, confining residents to their own neighbourhoods.
Under the new scheme if residents want to leave their zone they will need permission from the Council who gets to decide who is worthy of freedom and who isn’t. Under the new scheme residents will be allowed to leave their zone a maximum of 100 days per year, but in order to even gain this every resident will have to register their car details with the council who will then track their movements via smart cameras round the city.
Are residents of Oxfordshire actually going to put up with this?
I never thought that we would actually see this sort of a thing get implemented in the western world, but here we are.
Of course there are a few people that are loudly objecting to this new plan, but one Oxfordshire official is pledging that “the controversial plan would go ahead whether people liked it or not”.
Ouch.
Meanwhile, France has decided to completely ban certain short-haul flights in an attempt to reduce carbon emissions…
France can now make you train rather than plane.
The European Commission (EC) has given French officials the green light to ban select domestic flights if the route in question can be completed via train in under two and a half hours.
The plan was first proposed in 2021 as a means to reduce carbon emissions. It originally called for a ban on eight short-haul flights, but the EC has only agreed to nix three that have quick, easy rail alternatives with several direct connections each way every day.
This is nuts.
But if the French public accepts these new restrictions, similar bans will inevitably be coming to other EU nations.
In the Netherlands, the government is actually going to be buying and shutting down approximately 3,000 farms in order to “reduce its nitrogen pollution”…
The Dutch government is planning to purchase and then close down up to 3,000 farms in an effort to comply with a European Union environmental mandate to slash emissions, according to reports.
Farmers in the Netherlands will be offered “well over” the worth of their farm in an effort to take up the offer voluntarily, The Telegraph reported. The country is attempting to reduce its nitrogen pollution and will make the purchases if not enough farmers accept buyouts.
“There is no better offer coming,” Christianne van der Wal, nitrogen minister, told the Dutch parliament on Friday.
This is literally suicidal.
We are in the beginning stages of an unprecedented global food crisis, and the Dutch government has decided that now is the time to shut down thousands of farms?
I don’t even have the words to describe how foolish this is.
Speaking of suicide, Canada has found a way to get people to stop emitting any carbon at all once their usefulness is over. Assisted suicide has become quite popular among the Canadians, and the number of people choosing that option keeps setting new records year after year…
Last year, more than 10,000 people in Canada – astonishingly that’s over three percent of all deaths there – ended their lives via euthanasia, an increase of a third on the previous year. And it’s likely to keep rising: next year, Canada is set to allow people to die exclusively for mental health reasons.
If you are feeling depressed, Canada has a solution for that.
And if you are physically disabled, Canada has a solution for that too…
Only last week, a jaw-dropping story emerged of how, five years into an infuriating battle to obtain a stairlift for her home, Canadian army veteran and Paralympian Christine Gauthier was offered an extraordinary alternative.
A Canadian official told her in 2019 that if her life was so difficult and she so ‘desperate’, the government would help her to kill herself. ‘I have a letter saying that if you’re so desperate, madam, we can offer you MAiD, medical assistance in dying,’ the paraplegic ex-army corporal testified to Canadian MPs.
“Medical assistance in dying” sounds so clinical.
But ultimately it is the greatest lockdown of all.
Because once you stop breathing, you won’t be able to commit any more “climate sins”.
All over the western world, authoritarianism is growing at a pace that is absolutely breathtaking.
If they can severely restrict travel and shut down farms today, what sort of tyranny will we see in the future?
Sadly, most people in the general population still do not understand what is happening.
Hopefully they will wake up before it is too late.

The pro-Bolsonaro Brazilian military has taken out top leaders of the Red Command drug cartel which had heavily supported Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in the recent election.
Analysts say this is the first step in a federal military intervention of the country over a disputed election seeking to install Silva as Brazil’s president after a pro-Silva court refused to allow the military to audit the election results as required by law.
“The official declaration of Article 142, which allows the military to intervene in the case of a conflict between the branches of government, is expected this week,” according to the Gateway Pundit. “Soldiers were seen joining the protestors and instructing them to remain calm when action comes.”

“Drivers cheered military convoys deploying to strategic locations throughout the country.”
According to reports, Silva is heavily reliant on Red Command for his political support, especially after hundreds of thousands of Brazilians took to the streets to protest the election results.
The Military Deputy Prosecutor General said the Ministry of Defense wasn’t properly allowed to properly inspect the electronic voting system in Brazil’s presidential election.
This led to the military considering to enact Article 142 against the pro-Silva Superior Electoral Court which was trying to quickly certify the election to install Silva as president.
“Three separate reports have found that the elections could not be verified, since many of the voting machines cannot be audited,” The Gateway Pundit stated. “The military audit required by law could not be completed because the pro-Lula Electoral Court refuses to turn over the source code of the machines.”
