Conor McGregor, for whatever reason, is one of MMA’s most well know fighters. In reality, it’s because he is a showman and has a big mouth, a lot like boxing’s “greatest” fighter, Muhammad Ali. Regardless of your thoughts about him, Floyd Mayweather is the best there ever was at hitting and not getting hit, and no, it’s not because he ”runs around the ring,” as many detractors like to claim. Facts don’t lie.

Anyway, what Conor just said about President Trump will have a lot of liberals running to their safe spaces. In fact, Conor might have just lost a number of fans after referring to Trump as the “goat” – aka “greatest of all time.”

Here’s Trump’s tweet:

It was exactly three years ago today, January 20, 2017, that I was sworn into office. So appropriate that today is also MLK jr DAY. African-American Unemployment is the LOWEST in the history of our Country, by far. Also, best Poverty, Youth, and Employment numbers, ever. Great!

McGregor’s tweet:

Phenomenal President. Quite possibly the USA 🐐. Most certainly one of them anyway, as he sits atop the shoulders of many amazing giants that came before him. No easy feet.
Early stages of term also.
Incredible.
Congrats and Happy Martin Luther King Jr. day America 🇺🇸❤️🇮🇪

If it weren’t for a platform like Twitter, Trump would never be able to get his message out to the American people without the mainstream media twisting everything around.

They still do it, obviously, but at least he can fire back right away and defend himself. At the same time, Twitter gives anti-Trump, politically uninformed goofballs room to vent and threaten, while enabling sycophantic behavior.

Say hello to Maggie Haberman of the New York Times.

According to her, POTUS is just as bad a person as the murderous leaders of the world’s leading state sponsor of terror.

Because of people like Haberman, liberals will forever remain in the dark.

Trump’s sane tweet:

To the leaders of Iran – DO NOT KILL YOUR PROTESTERS. Thousands have already been killed or imprisoned by you, and the World is watching. More importantly, the USA is watching. Turn your internet back on and let reporters roam free! Stop the killing of your great Iranian people!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 12, 2020

Haberman’s highly ignorant tweet:

“Let reporters roam free” says the president, who routinely refers to the US press as “enemy of the people,” to Iranian leaders. https://t.co/zTtSdiOyDj

Reactions:

Obama jailed journalists, spied on them, and journalists were muted, at best, in reporting this.
Trump tweets criticisms, they compare him to the Ayatollah.
If you ever wonder why the public despises these people, remember this. https://t.co/duz39aj16u

I think it's possible that Maggie Haberman has become the most obtuse person covering the White House as a supposedly objective reporter for a major new outlet. This, plus her wild impeachment takes, plus that time she suggested 'Edelweiss' was a Nazi anthem… https://t.co/qaJyUXXv8X

Notice how you were free to tweet this without fearing for your life https://t.co/3Jpo8P0C1m

How many reporters has Trump imprisoned or killed, Maggie? (NOTE: Mean tweets don't count) https://t.co/FKCIliNfec

Because you falsely report about what's going on in Iran to undermine the Iranian people and to appease Mullahs. NYT is the fake news.

Reporters in Iran would have been killed if they publish anything against the government. Those reporters in Iran are not spoiled brats. https://t.co/UzuAzXFXfU

Tell me when President Trump murdered reporters. Question. Does Iran pay you to push its propaganda or is it a hobby? Tell me when you have ever been prevented from reporting anything you want, even when it is incorrect? https://t.co/WZvvSYLSJE

Amazon Rolls Out Creepy ‘Pay By Palm’ Hardware at Whole Foods

Is this one of the harbingers of a cashless society?

Throughout much of modern history, Americans and their cash were two separate things. One was a human being, breathing and walking about, earning money. The money was an inanimate commodity of varying value that we used to keep the organism alive, fat, and happy. But in the future, it seems as though we may find ourselves intrinsically, and anatomically indistinguishable from our bank account. In fact, it appears as though Amazon is banking on it. Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O) said it is rolling out biometric technology at its Whole Foods stores around Seattle starting on Wednesday, letting shoppers pay for items with a scan of their palm. The move shows how Amazon is bringing some of the technology already in use at its namesake brick-and-mortar Go and Books stores to the grocery chain it acquired in 2017. The system, called Amazon One, lets customers associate a credit card with their palm print. It offers a contact-less alternative to cash and card payments, Amazon said. Of course, the move is being regarded as a terrifying leap into Orwellian territory by privacy experts, as it appears to push us ever closer to a cashless society where hackers and power failures could doom us all to poverty in the blink of an eye.

Fraternal Order of Police Responds to LeBron James’ Tweet Fiasco

And they were NOT happy.

The politicization of American sports has been ongoing for some time, perhaps decades, but the most recent acceleration of this melding has come thanks to the power of social media and the blurring of the line between celebrity and athlete. At the forefront of this movement has been the NBA, and, more specifically, superstar LeBron James. This week, James came under fire for a tweet in which he referenced the Derek Chauvin trial’s guilty verdicts, with a photo of another officer who was involved in the shooting of a young black girl and text stating “you’re next”. The tweet was seen as a threat by many, including the Fraternal Order of Police who responded harshly. On Wednesday, James tweeted a photo of the officer involved in the shooting with a caption reading “YOU’RE NEXT #ACCOUNTABILITY.” The tweet has since been deleted. James was reacting to the deadly police shooting of 16-year-old Ma’Khia Bryant. Hours later, the National Fraternal Order of Police tweeted a photo of James’ original tweet, saying: “[email protected], with his vast resources & influence, should educate himself and, frankly, has a responsibility to do so, on the facts before weighing in. This is disgraceful & extremely reckless. The officer saved a young girl’s life. No amount of gaslighting will change that fact.” James attempted to walk back the tweet after deleting it, by issuing an explanation that garnered only a lukewarm response online.
