Republican lawmakers are working with Democrats to ban the 2020 Census from asking United States residents whether or not they are American citizens.

In March, President Donald Trump’s administration announced they would put the citizenship question back on the census. It has not been included since 1950. For seven decades, all residents living in the United States have been counted on the census but have not been asked whether or not they are American citizens, making it impossible for the federal government to know the size of the citizen population versus the immigrant population.

Now, Republican and Democrat lawmakers are looking to reach a deal before the new year that would prevent the U.S. citizenship question from being asked on the 2020 Census

Twitter stocks drop on fears of Conservative exodus

Twitter’s stock dropped, Thursday, after the social network faced controversy for banning two conservatives: Jesse Kelly and Laura Loomer. Financial news site the Street believes the drop is tied to fears of a conservative boycott of the social media platform.

According to the Street, Twitter’s stock “ended off 4.3% on Thursday, after earlier losing nearly 9%.”

The Street also reported that “Timothy Collins, an analyst with Jim Cramer’s Action Alerts Plus portfolio, speculated that the drop may be tied to an apparent boycott of Twitter by Fox News,” however the report ignored the recent controversy over Twitter’s ban of prominent conservative commentators Jesse Kelly and Laura Loomer.

Kelly, a conservative commentator, radio host, and Iraq War veteran, was banned from Twitter last week, before his account was eventually reinstated following complaints.

In the same week, Loomer was also banned for criticizing Congresswoman-Elect Ilhan Omar (D-MN). Unlike Kelly, Loomer has not had her account reinstated.

On Thursday, Loomer chained herself to Twitter’s company offices in New York City in protest.

A number of prominent conservatives and libertarians are currently banned from Twitter, including Gavin McInnes, Roger Stone, Alex Jones, and Tommy Robinson, and this year, Vice News admitted in a report that Twitter had also been shadow-banning conservatives.

In July, Twitter’s stock dropped following reports that the social network had been deleting over one million fake accounts per day.

Report: Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg Ordered Oppo Research on George Soros, Then Denied in Public

A new report claims that Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg directly ordered opposition research on billionaire philanthropist George Soros, a claim which she previously denied.

A new report from the New York Times claims that according to three individuals with knowledge of the situation, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg directly ordered staff to investigate billionaire philanthropist George Soros’ financial investments following his outspoken attacks against multiple tech firms. Sandberg’s requests for further information on Soros appear to indicate that the company COO was directly engaged in Facebook’s actions against Soros.

A recent article published by the New York Times titled “Delay, Deny and Deflect: How Facebook’s Leaders Fought Through Crisis,” provides insight into how Facebook has operated through numerous crises over the past few years. The report alleged that Facebook hired a PR firm called Definers Public Affairs which published articles critical of Facebook’s competitors through an associated conservative news website. Facebook also reportedly hired a Republican opposition research firm to discredit activist protesters critical of Facebook’s data breaches. This was done partly by linking them to the left-wing financier George Soros.

Elliot J. Schrage, a Facebook deputy who oversaw the company’s communications team, took responsibility last week fort he hiring of Definers Press and their subsequent investigation into Soros. “We had not heard such criticism from him before and wanted to determine if he had any financial motivation,” Shrage said discussing Soros. “Definers researched this using public information.”

Rashad Robinson, the head of the racial-justice group Color of Change which was mentioned by Definers in a memo related to George Soros, met with Sandberg and discussed their conversation saying: “She very much placed it on the now departed communications chief [Schrage] and also worked to assure us that Joel Kaplan had nothing to do with it either,” Robinson stated. “We were not satisfied with that answer,” he said.

Judge postpones ruling on Comey challenge to GOP subpoena

Judge Trevor McFadden gave the two sides the weekend to provide additional information about their arguments. The court will reconvene Monday at 10 a.m. for a ruling.

Comey on Thursday sought to quash the subpoena for closed-door testimony, arguing that House Republicans would seek to “peddle a distorted, partisan political narrative about the Clinton and Russia investigations through selective leaks” if he was not interviewed in public.
