(FROM THE ARTICLE: Tippy said he has been seeing more and more Illinois transplants getting involved with the Republican Party when they make the move to Indiana. He said there were a few, like Bromley, who assisted with his campaign. “Right now we have a lot of new construction going on across the center and southern part of the county,” Tippy said. “A big percentage of those people are coming from Illinois and they appear to be coming to Indiana because they like the lower taxes and lower cost of living.” Tippy said it appears many of these new transplants are disillusioned Illinois Democrats turning Republican or Republicans leaving Illinois for Indiana. “I think it’s a trend that has been going on for a while, but it has accelerated the last four years,” Tippy said.)

KTRH
— Conservative Censorship Continues (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, my critics/opponents a) encourage/force everyone to spend all their time on Facebook rather than reading GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails, b) encourage/force the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, etc. to rely on Facebook for communication, to ignore/dump their websites, and to stop sending out emails, and c) encourage/force Republican candidates in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, etc. to rely on Facebook for communication, to ignore/dump their websites, and to stop sending out emails.)
https://ktrh.iheart.com/content/2020-11-30-conservative-censorship-continues/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If you thought that ‘Big Tech’ was going to back off of its conservative censorship now that the election is over? You were wrong! As documented in the New York Times! of all places, Facebook & CEO Mark Zuckerberg are actually doing more to censor news outlets and people that they don’t agree with. It’s done with a ‘secret ranking system’ that allows CNN and others to be seen, while conservative outlets and posts are restricted. Taking it one step, Facebook is also blocking individual posts (aka freedom of speech) under the guise that they use to rationalize ‘people that are bad for the world’. Scary but true according to media analyst Bryan Preston, who told KTRH “What they’re censoring are stories that they don’t like, that report facts that they don’t want people to see. That is extremely chilling! and given the power that Facebook has over our view of reality now, this cannot stand.” And while Preston believes that Facebook and the other Big Tech companies will have it much easier under Biden, the fight will continue. Who would have thought we would be talking about free speech in 2020? Scary, but true.)
