  • Prejudicial Bans: Congress Tosses over TikTok

    How delicious is political hypocrisy.  Abundant and rich, it manifests in the corridors of power with regularity.  Of late, there is much of it in the US Congress, evident over debates on whether the platform TikTok should be banned in the United States.  Much of this seems based on an assumption that foreign companies are […]

We see this in the attack on the Uhuru Movement as being in the pay of Russia, in the imprisonment and torture of Julian Assange, in […]
