BUZZFEED GOES WHERE CHRISTIAN BAKERS BANNED [More]

Of course they should have the protected right to do business with whomever they wish.

We all should.

Thing about Buzzfeed: A few years back, they did probably the most fair write-up on me 'n Mike I've seen.

The Super Genius Establishment RINO Flack

The super-PAC Make America Awesome launched a Facebook campaign last week with three ads ahead of GOP contests Tuesday in Utah and Arizona ... Each ad is expected to reach around 10,000 voting-age Mormons per day, Liz Mair, the GOP strategist behind the group, told BuzzFeed. [More]

Ol' Liz sure is getting a lot of media play for someone whose "Awesome" PAC Twitter feed, created last year, only has 506 followers, and whose last commercial garnered a whopping 427 YouTube views.

That's some strategist.

Interesting -- she shares a seat (no pun intended) on the GoProud advisory council with Grover Norquisling. And they have even more in common:

Mair’s support for amnesty for illegal aliens, wide-open-borders immigration policies, and public advocacy for the Senate “Gang of Eight” amnesty bill...

She doesn't explain how a pathway to citizenship for a 70-80% Democrat/anti-gun demographic isn't going to Make America Awful.

One factor among many Mair just doesn't seem to get is that Melania Trump is hardly seen as a liability, and this attack comes across more like unprincipled catty jealousy than anything else. All she's "uncovered" is an opportunity that wouldn't have been offered to her.

You start digging back into people's pasts like this and you make your own decisions as a twenty-something fair game.

 The network quoted a shareholder as saying that closing down the news operation could boost the company’s market capitalization by up to $300 million. [More]

Looks like somebody didn't get their wish.

As I've noted before about BuzzFeed, a few years back they did probably the fairest write-up on me 'n Mike I've seen. A saying about blind pigs and acorns comes to mind.

We're the Only Ones 'Keep Your Shirt On' Enough

An FBI official told BuzzFeed News they received multiple reports about the post, but the attack happened before they were able to confirm the poster's identity and do something about it. [More]

Policy doesn't require immediately notifying local law enforcement in the interim with a conditional alert just in case?

Where Will We Go for Our Lies?

The same week that The Weekly Standard’s troubles broke, Vanity Fair dropped a bombshell report about the struggles faced by those hip, millennial-targeted left-wing rags with the cool names and rabidly anti-Trump headlines strewn across your social media feed. Vice, Vox, Mic, Buzzfeed, Mashable — they’re all either looking for buyers or seriously reevaluating their strategies in hopes of becoming profitable. Mic laid off most of its workers. Vice and Vox are firing staff left and right. [More]

Lord Vader speaks for me.

Hey, "consent of the governed," right?
