Did you know that #GDPR allows sites not to announce the use of "essential" cookies? Meaning those your site uses for itself, to keep the user logged in for example.

So when Internet commerce started to slap those stupid "we use cookies" banners on every site they used the more generic word "cookies" to avoid saying outright that their sites use *ad trackers*.

Long story short, if you don't sell your user data, you don't have to present stupid disclaimers.

Pissing off a nation of parents,
while destroying their children’s futures and subjecting them to months more of home confinement, is quite possibly the dumbest liberal “strategy” in American history. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/school-leaders-and-parents-outraged-over-montgomery-countys-closure-of-nonpublic-schools https://twitter.com/dbongino/status/1289994424861069314 #Bongino #Montgomery

It wasn’t enough for the left to burn our flag

It wasn’t enough for the left to burn our businesses

It wasn’t enough for the left to burn our churches

They’re now burning our Bible in the streets of Portland.

And Joe Biden has stayed silent through all of it. https://twitter.com/charliekirk11/status/1289994550627377152 #Turning_Point_USA #Bible #Biden #Portland

The truth is thousands of babies like this 28-week-old baby are tragically killed after viability every single year.

And Joe Biden and Democrats are perfectly fine with this horror. We must stop Joe Biden and we must end abortion!
