Nice!

Looking forward to more of this "transparency" for the next four years.

Download videos you think are important, save website you think are important offline.

Is there any way to see if any of these requests have been made to ATS?

...I almost feel like just saying outlandish stuff even if its false

I'd wear my "censored" comment like a badge of honor!

Nice catch OP.

Obviously the question is not "Are they preparing for something?", but "What are they preparing for?" and "When the flock is the expected date?".

I knew it was time to worry when Hillary called all the US ambassador's and envoys home for a secret conference last year (Feb 2011):

Or when a DARPA director headed over to Google:

Ok it is not just the US thread title is a little off.

Legalized propaganda and now censorship has risen.

Hmmmm.

Yeah anyone who still says the US is not fascist?

Still think so?

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

Zeig Heil!

Fascism is tricky ideology to pin down. What was "fascism" in Italy, doesn't really apply to "fascism" in Germany.

But you are right, the only difference is we elect our il Duce or Fuhrer, for now at least.

Awesome that land of the free we have let them create for us...
