Now for something completely different - some great impressions

 

Some of the best impressions I've seen in a long time


Jewish comedian Ami Kozak is so spot-on here! All of the impressions he did here are too perfect. Wait until the end when he does President Trump!

D-Day Heroes > Where did they come from? Ronald Reagan, Joe Biden, Ben Shapiro

 

The question we should be asking on the 80th anniversary of D-Day is the question Reagan asked: where do we find such men? The Greatest Generation was produced by a generation of churchgoing Christian mothers and fathers. 4% illegitimacy rate. 96% belief in God. 73% church membership. We've rejected all of those things and produced generations of narcissists instead.

‘I’m Not an Anti-Semite. I’m Anti-Termite’: Nation of Islam Leader Won’t Be Suspended by Twitter

Funny! On the Real Saviour's Day, Farrakhan will not be smiling.

Twitter says it will not will not be banning Louis Farrakhan after the Nation of Islam leader once again courted controversy by comparing Jews to insects on the social media platform.

Twitter previously removed Farrakhan's 'verified' status in July for a similar, anti-semitic infraction when he tweeted: “Thoroughly and completely unmasking the Satanic Jew and the Synagogue of Satan.”


On Tuesday, Louis Farrakhan tweeted a video of fresh controversial remarks in which he likens Jews to insects, seemingly doubling-down and taunting his critics, past and present.


MINISTER FARRAKHAN
@LouisFarrakhan
 I'm not an anti-Semite. I’m anti-Termite.


Twitter is set to introduce new rules in an effort to curb ‘dehumanizing’ language on the platform. Statements “that treat others as less than human" including “comparing groups to animals and viruses,” will be explicitly forbidden. However the new rules are not yet in force, so Farrakhan will not be punished, for the time being at least.

No official date has yet been given by Twitter as to when the rules against such language will be brought into effect.

Twitter users were furious at both the comments themselves and the social media giant’s apparent indifference to Farrakhan’s rampant anti-Semitism.

 Just in from a @Twitter spokesperson: Louis Farrakhan's tweet comparing Jews to termites is not in violation of the company's policies. The policy on dehumanizing language has not yet been implemented. 

So if you want to compare Jews to rats/insects - get it in while you can!


Chelsea Clinton, daughter of former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, tweeted her disgust at the remarks.

“Comparing Jews to termites is anti-Semitic, wrong and dangerous. The responsive laughter makes my skin crawl,” Clinton tweeted, while also apparently calling out activists on her side of the aisle. “For everyone who rightly condemned President Trump’s rhetoric when he spoke about immigrants ‘infesting our country,’ this rhetoric should be equally unacceptable to you.”

Outspoken conservative pundit Ben Shapiro, himself a member of the Jewish community, ridiculed Twitter’s flagrant double standards in relation to online hate speech.

 Twitter's standards are an utterly inconsistent joke https://www.dailywire.com/news/37270/twitter-wont-ban-farrakhan-calling-jews-termites-ben-shapiro …


Many called out Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey to address the issue personally, though no answer was immediately forthcoming.

How is this not hate speech? @jack


Twitter has drawn the ire of conservative media in recent months for a series of purges targeting online commentators such as Alex Jones.

It is also embroiled in a new controversy at present for deleting up to 1,500 accounts that used the recent 'NPC meme' to satirize left-wing activists, alleging that they were... you guessed it, Russian bots.
