Simple Question: Who Complained?

Posted on | September 21, 2022 | Comments Off on Simple Question: Who Complained?

British journalist Toby Young reports that PayPal shut down the accounts of his Daily Sceptic site, as well as the Free Speech Union, a non-profit he created. When he inquired about the cause of this deplatforming, Young received an email that included this bit of boilerplate “explanation”:

PayPal’s policy is not to allow our services to be used for activities that promote hate, violence or racial intolerance. We regularly assess activity against our long-standing Acceptable Use Policy and carefully review actions reported to us, and will discontinue our relationship with account holders who are found to violate our policies.

To which Young responds:

That message was a bit weird since it didn’t explicitly accuse the Daily Sceptic of promoting “hate, violence or racial intolerance”, or say that that was how we’d violated its precious policy. But it certainly implied it. To which my response is: How exactly? Or, more profanely: What the f*** are you talking about?

The obvious solution to this problem is to file a lawsuit for breach of contract, and perhaps also for defamation, since it is obviously false that Young is a promoter of “hate, violence or racial intolerance.” Through the process of discovery, Young hopefully would be able to find the answers to a few crucial questions, including what it was exactly that led to this deplatforming. Young’s site has bucked the conventional wisdom on several issues, including COVID-19 policy, transgenderism and the war in Ukraine, any one of which might have caused a complaint.

More importantly, who filed this complaint? Because how likely is it that PayPal would deplatform a popular site on the basis of a complaint from a random anonymous nobody? Doesn’t it seem more likely that, as with the case of Twitter banning COVID-19 policy critics Naomi Wolf and Alex Berenson, government pressure was involved in this decision?

This is what’s wrong with the arguments of those who defend deplatforming when done by Big Tech corporations — at what point do such actions become indistinguishable from government-imposed censorship? If these business exhibit a clear partisan bias in their decisions to ban people then (a) isn’t it likely that one party will benefit politically from this bias? and (b) once that party controls the government, isn’t it likely that they’ll leverage Big Tech to punish or silence critics of government policy? At some point on this trajectory, it becomes corporate-sponsored totalitarianism.

For example, how far are we permitted to go in criticizing U.S. policy in Ukraine before somebody at the State Department decides to have a friendly chat with lobbyists from Google, Twitter, Facebook, etc., to explain why such criticism should be suppressed? And if the government can do this over Ukraine policy (or COVID-19 or transgenderism), then why shouldn’t they do this on every controversial issue?

Different people are going to have different opinions as to where the lines should be drawn in such matters — really, does a private company have an obligation to provide services to neo-Nazis or Islamic radicals? — but it is important to know why such decisions are being made. There ought to be some kind of requirement for corporate transparency in these matters, because otherwise people will get banned without even knowing what caused the ban or who made the decision.

Why Isn’t Marilyn Mosby In Prison Yet?

Posted on | September 21, 2022 | Comments Off on Why Isn’t Marilyn Mosby In Prison Yet?

“Liberal billionaire George Soros realized early on that prosecutors are the gatekeepers to the criminal justice system, and he decided to hand select attorneys who would do his bidding by refusing to prosecute entire categories of crimes, fundamentally ‘reimagining prosecution’ and reverse-engineering the criminal justice system into something unrecognizable in the process. . . . So, when Soros decided back in 2014 to spend millions to fund the election efforts of rogue prosecutors, one of the first people he backed was Marilyn Mosby in Baltimore city.”
— The Daily Signal, Oct. 27, 2020

This morning, I switched my home-office TV to CNN, and caught an interview with Marilyn Mosby. “Holy crap,” I said to myself. “I thought she was already in federal prison.” That’s certainly where she belongs.

Mosby was indicted by a federal grand jury earlier this year on perjury and mortgage fraud charges related to her purchase of two vacation homes in Florida. Her trial has been postponed until next March. She was defeated in her bid to be re-elected to a third term, losing the Democratic primary in July. God only knows whether Baltimore will ever recover from the damage Mosby inflicted on the city since being elected in 2014.

Homicides in the city increased dramatically after Mosby became the state’s attorney for Baltimore, and the crime wave she unleashed has reverberated across Maryland and into neighboring states, for the simple reason that failure to prosecute criminals in the city means they are free to commit crimes in other jurisdictions. Criminals from Baltimore that Mosby turned loose are perpetrating felonies throughout Maryland, as well as in Pennsylvania, Virginia, and the District of Columbia.

In just a few months, Mosby will be out of office (and, one hopes, on her way to federal prison) but she seems determined to inflict maximum damage on her way out the door. After a true-crime podcast raised questions about a 1999 murder case in the city, Mosby decided unilaterally to turn the convicted killer loose:

Baltimore State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby “railroaded” the family of Hae Min Lee by “ramming down their throats” her decision to ask a judge to release Adnan Syed from prison on Monday, this according to their attorney.
Family attorney Steve Kelly blasted Mosby during a CNN interview Tuesday morning, accusing her of blindsiding the family and “completely excluding” them from the process that led to Adnan’s conviction being vacated.
Kelly said Hae’s family felt betrayed and only wanted to know why after 20 years prosecutors changed their minds on who killed Lee. He said the recent motion filed by prosecutors did not spell out their reasoning.
He also said Hae’s family was open to hearing about other suspects, but Mosby never gave them the chance.
As we reported, Adnan walked out of a Baltimore courtroom a free man Monday after serving 23 years of a life sentence for Hae’s 1999 murder. He will be on house arrest as prosecutors determine over the next 30 days whether to try him again or drop the charges.
In 2000, a jury convicted Adnan of strangling Hae in a rage after she broke up with him.
His alleged accomplice testified at trial that he helped Adnan dispose of the body after Adnan confessed to the slaying. Police also used cell phone data to link Adnan to the crime scene. Adnan was 17 at the time he went to prison.
Then, in 2014, Adnan caught a break when the “Serial” Podcast thrust his case back into the spotlight, poking holes in the police probe.
That led Baltimore State’s Attorney, Marilyn Mosby, to reopen the case about a year ago and launch a new investigation, finding that the cell data used to convict Adnan was flawed and the accomplice had offered contradictory statements to police.
What’s more … there were 2 other suspects kept under wraps by the original prosecutors and withheld from the defense lawyers, which is a violation of law.
Mosby has not released the suspects’ names, but one of them allegedly threatened to kill Hae.

See how this works? Every convict in prison has some kind of sad tale to tell, and there’s no reason to think Adnan Syed’s story is more credible than any of these other excuses. Claims of prosecutorial misconduct, and assertions that there are other potential suspects, cannot erase the evidence and testimony pointing toward Syed’s guilt. While it is perhaps possible that his conviction will be overturned, this doesn’t justify turning him loose in the meantime — but Mosby turns loose criminals at least as guilty as Sayed on a regular basis, so what’s one more, eh? Besides, it’s good publicity for Mosby in “progressive” circles, and she probably hopes this will help her somehow in her own federal case.

UPDATE: Welcome, Instapundit readers!

Thomas Hogan at City Journal calls the Syed case “Mosby’s Final Insult to Baltimore,” and has more details about the case.

Ukraine Forces Cross Oskil River, Advancing Toward Svatove, Kreminna

Posted on | September 20, 2022 | Comments Off on Ukraine Forces Cross Oskil River, Advancing Toward Svatove, Kreminna

Getting accurate and timely information about the war in Ukraine remains difficult, and it may be a few days before the tactical picture becomes clear, but (a) Ukraine now claims to control the east bank of the Oskril River across from Kupiansk, and (b) it has been confirmed that Ukrainian forces have taken Yarova, about 10 miles west of Lyman. While the Russians are reportedly trying to organize a defense at Svatove, their southern flank is jeopardized by the Ukrainian forces at Yarova and Lyman. It’s not clear if the Ukrainians are also across the Oskril River north of Kupiansk, although the Russians claim to have destroyed a pontoon crossing at Dvorichne, about 15 miles north of Kupiansk.

This is very encouraging so far. A week ago (“Ukraine Offensive Halts at Oskil River?”), I was worried that the Ukrainian advance had lost momentum, which risked losing the opportunity to wreck the Russians while they were still shaken by the rapid assault on Kupiansk. Now it appears that the halt at the Oskil was just temporary, and that the Ukrainian advance will continue. If they break through anywhere south of Svatove, this would immediately render the position of Russian forces near Lyman untenable, compelling a retreat further eastward, toward Severodonetsk and Lysychansk. Such a retreat would cost the Russians still more men and equipment, on top of what they already lost when the Ukrainians captured Kupiansk and Izyum, with attendant impact on Russian morale. However, the tactical situation remains unclear.

Over the next week, we may hear news of another Ukrainian breakthrough, or the pace of action may slow down. What’s important, though, is that Ukraine has established the necessary bridgehead on the east bank of the Oskril River, which will allow them to keep advancing eastward, however fast or slow that progress may be.

Crazy People Are Dangerous

Posted on | September 20, 2022 | Comments Off on Crazy People Are Dangerous

Say hello to 51-year-old Missouri resident Jeremy Garnier, who in March 2020 decided it would be a good idea to dress up as comic-book villain The Joker and record a livestream threatening to kill a thousand people. Last week, he was sentenced to 60 days in jail and two years of probation for making terrorist threats. You will perhaps not be surprised to learn that (a) Garnier has a lengthy history of previous crimes (b) which he claims he committed to “in order to support his crack habit.”

Is the world getting crazier, or is it just that now we have social-media that allows people to broadcast their craziness?

Crazy Weekend in the NFL

Posted on | September 19, 2022 | Comments Off on Crazy Weekend in the NFL

All manner of insanity broke out in Sunday’s NFL games. In a comeback victory over the Las Vegas Raider, Kyler Murray of the Arizona Cardinals scored a two-point conversion in which he ran 84 total yards.

The Raiders, who made it to the playoffs last season and added former New England offensive coordinator Josh McDaniel as their head coach, are now 0-2, last place in the AFC West. Meanwhile, in the AFC East, the Miami Dolphins are 2-0 after a ccomeback victory over the Baltimore Ravens. The Dolphins trailed 35-14 going into the fourth quarter, but then scored four touchdowns to win 42-38 as Miami QB Tua Tagovailoa finished 36-for-50 for 469 yards and six touchdowns, including the go-ahead score to former Alabama teammate Jaylen Waddle.

It was a good weekend for the ’Bama boys, as Tua’s former backup, a guy named Mac Jones — maybe you’ve heard of him — was good enough to win a road game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, 17-14, thanks in part to this amazing touchdown catch by wide receiver Nelson Agholor.

That 44-yarder shows the increased confidence of Mac Jones to throw deep, into coverage, counting on his receiver to make the contested catch. It’s more risky than the kind of “dink-and-dunk” check-down stuff that Jones did so effectively last year, but if he is ever going to become a great quarterback, he’s going to have to take some chances like that. Sunday was not a great performance by Mac — there were plenty of errors, including an interception made by former ’Bama teammate Minkah Fitzpatrick, where Mac tried for the deep post route it would have been better to hit the crossing route underneath — but it was good enough. There were some encouraging signs of improvement by the offensive line, and the Patriots defense looked solid. We’ll see what happens next week when New England hosts the Ravens. Meanwhile . . .

The usually pathetic New York Jets made an amazing last-minute comeback to defeat the still-pathetic Cleveland Browns 31-30. In San Francisco, the Niners lost their starting quarterback, Trey Lance, to a season-ending ankle injury in the first quarter, but then brought veteran Jimmy Garoppoolo off the bench to beat the Seahawks 27-7.

For Monday night, the NFL will try a doubleheader this week, with the Tennessee Titans taking on the Buffalo Bills in the early game, then the Minnesota Vikings playing the Philadelphia Eagles in the late game. Of course, I’ll be cheering for the Titans, not just because they’ve got Alabama alum Derrick Henry at running back, but also because as a Patriots fan, I need the Bills to lose. In the late game, let’s hope Philly’s Jalen Hurts makes it 3-0 weekend for ’Bama QBs.
