EU privacy chief expects first round of fines under new law by year-end

 

The European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), heralded as the biggest shake-up of data privacy laws in more than two decades, came into force on May 25.

 

The new rules, designed for the digital age, allow consumers to better control their personal data and give regulators the power to impose fines of up to 4% of global revenue or €20 million (£17.5 million), whichever is higher, for violations.

 

Enforcers have since then been deluged by complaints about violations and queries for clarification, with France and Italy alone reporting a 53% jump in complaints from last year, European Data Protection Supervisor Giovanni Buttarelli said.

Kamala Harris Hands Over $400,000 To Struggling Dem After Voting Against Kavanaugh

 

Sen. Kamala Harris, D-CA, sent out an email fundraiser for Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D., shortly after she voted “no” to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, and it easily racked up $400,000.

 

As noted by American Thinker, four hundred thousand dollars just changed hands between two notable Democrats, and there are serious concerns from many about whether it was a bribe.

 

On Saturday, Heitkamp went against a majority of voters in her state and voted against Kavanaugh. Roughly 60 percent of voters in North Dakota supported Kavanaugh and wanted him confirmed to the Supreme Court.

 

Rather than listen to her constituents, who she works for, Heitkamp toted the party line and voted against Kavanaugh. Her efforts didn’t work, given Kavanaugh was confirmed and is now sitting on the Court, but what transpired afterwards is deeply troubling.

 

Soon after Heitkamp’s “no” vote, suddenly she found herself with a flood of campaign cash, courtesy of Harris.

GOP Majority Leader To Introduce Bill To Fully Fund Trump’s Wall

 

House Majority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-CA, plans to introduce a major bill this week that will fully fund President Donald Trump‘s proposed wall along the United States southern border, according to CNN. The president has made the border wall a top priority, and if the GOP holds firm, it could become a reality much sooner than many ever expected.

 

McCarthy’s bold “we will fight” statement and crafty bill comes after the GOP already passed $1.6 Billion for it, but the news media blackout can’t silence this.

 

The bill — “Build the Wall, Enforce the Law Act” — is expected to be released toward the end of the week, and could be voted on shortly after November’s midterm elections if Speaker of the House Paul Ryan puts it to a floor vote.

 

The bold proposal, which will allocate roughly $23.4 billion to fully fund the entire wall, has strong support among top Republican lawmakers. This could also ensure the midterm elections are a referendum on immigration policy, and further ignite conservatives to come out in droves to vote against Democrats.

University of Illinois defends new 'Trumpaganda' course

 

The University of Illinois will offer a course titled "Trumpaganda: The war on facts, press, and democracy."

The course will focus on the president's "running war" with the media and his "disinformation campaign."

 

The course is specifically centered around the president’s, “running war” with his media enemies, which he calls “fake news,” and how he uses textbook devices for propaganda that, “dominate,” his tweets, press conferences, and public statements.

 

The course also seeks to challenge students to question their assumption that propaganda is an uncommon practice in democratic societies.

 

According to her faculty profile, Mira Sotirovic, the professor teaching the course, has written extensively on the president’s rhetorical methods in the past. She also has an entire tab on her site devoted to her research on propaganda.
