Last week, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez proved once again that she has the ability to define terms for the entire Democratic Party by labeling the detention centers where asylum seekers are awaiting trial with the term “concentration camps.” Instead of agreeing that the border detention facilities should be addressed in terms of improvement, and those facilities in no way mirror the atrocities of the Holocaust, a large swath of the political left rushed to Ocasio-Cortez’s defense. Many of those defenders pulled out their Jewish credentials when saying that the “concentration camp” label is correct. These Jewish defenders are willing to minimize the atrocities of the Holocaust for the opportunity to appease a freshman congresswoman and attack the Trump administration. Obviously Photoshopped, but accurate?

With the first Democratic debate last night, the 2020 Presidential election is officially underway.  The good thing about a Democratic primary is that candidates are trying to appeal to the most leftist base of their party for a short while to garner those votes.  Once a nominee is decided, the Democrat will moderate to appeal to middle America, forgetting all those promises made a few short months before.  So its important to note those radical statements as they come, so the candidates will be held accountable later.

So far, three presidential candidates, Elizabeth Warren,Julian Castro, and Cory Booker, have pledged to decriminalize illegal border crossings into the United States.  Currently, all illegal immigrants have violated Section 1325 of the  Immigration and Nationality Act, which says that crossing the U.S. border “at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers" is a federal offense. 

Reddit has Quarantined the popular subreddit 'The_Donald', a pro-Trump forum.  This comes on the heels of multiple Silicon Valley censorship of conservative and right-wing channels and media sites, most notably YouTube's removal of ads from Steven Crowder and the Project Veritas whistle-blower from Google. 

According to a post on the subreddit, the Quaratine is due to "repeated rule-breaking behavior in your community and an over-reliance on Reddit admins to manage users and remove posts that violate our content policy."  Essentially this boils down to a forum unwilling to abide by the rules of the platform that they utilize, so the platform shuts them down.
