What obscure websites are you talking about, anyway? Wikipedia? The Guardian? Telegraph? Admittedly the itsgoingdown.org site is a little bit obscure - but maybe those ef'rs who think that we should be 'antifas by default' (as posted in a different thread a few days back) might want to know who they are aligning themselves with/supporting. Joining Antifa to crush fascism is a joke..they're well along the path to fascism themselves, comrade...

Defense Secretary Jim Mattis travels to the Middle East and eastern Europe next week to play the increasingly familiar role of reassuring allies that the United States is committed to them despite mixed messages from President Donald Trump.
The informal portfolio of soothing traditional U.S. friends upset by Trump's often sharp comments and tweets on foreign policy is one that the retired Marine general is becoming used to. Source |

Where in this interview does it support the view that "to share a speaker platform promoting Nazi ...." is not a politically dumb thing to do?

I didn't make it up obviously, but thanks for pointing out that it's misattributed, he never said it, etc. I don't think very highly of that man anyway, especially considering he allowed the Lusitania to be sunk by a German U-boat in a sick attempt to get the US into the war: https://www.irishcentral.com/news/ir...the-luisitania

Labor groups step up pressure on Trump to deliver
Unions are starting a two-week Rust Belt campaign to push the administration on jobs.
Labor leaders, once courted by President Trump, are stepping up their campaign to turn workers against the White House if it does not deliver more on jobs and trade — and if it does not stop undoing Obama-era regulations.
The Trump administration has undone or walked away from a number of regulations that labour lobbied for, and won, under Obama,
“Trump ran as a working-class hero, so let’s look at the results,” said Joseph Geevarghese, Good Jobs Nation’s executive director. “We’re seven months into his administration, and wages are flat. People are still getting pink slips.” Source
Trump's campaign appealed to the white unskilled worker sector and he needs to show some action here to keep his base intact.

Ayyadurai OTOH began building his EMAIL system in 1978 according to this TIME article/interview (once I recognised that difference I stopped reading both articles).
Given the time difference it's kinda hard to see how there can be a dispute, provided everybody is talking about the same thing.
So first Ayyadurai should provide his definition of "email". If he claims only something sent according to his copyrighted EMAIL (standard?) can be called email then his claim, of course, is a truism. But that wouldn't mean the same as everybody else understands "email" to mean. Actually, that would sound more like Al Gore's alleged claim to have invented the internet (which by the way is a false allegation).

As I wrote in my OP the list was copied from the Breitbart website  | | | | | what? my god the difference in wavelength between you and me really is incomprehensible. - i say: bannon goes to war for trump.
- you say: nuh-uh he goes to war against trump #meltdown
- you provide "proof" by supplying headlines from breitbart
- i debunk your list as misleading because the actual headlines and corresponding articles are different, from what you insinuate.
- i say you probably copypasted the list from some tweet or shit article in your bubble because you clearly did not bother to look them up on breitbart
- you post nonsense above, clearly misunderstanding

| | | | | Sorry marton, in this case I have to agree with mwnn - it didn't add up to me either. Bannon has said that the presidency he was trying to create with Trump is over, not that the presidency as a whole is over.
Bannon has gained a lot of knowledge about the inner workings of Washington over the last several months. I fully expect now that he's back at Breitbart he will feel empowered to keep posting pieces skewering his (and Trump's) favorite adversaries.
