The Cuyahoga County Board of Elections is hiring
Via Mary Kilpatrick at cleveland.com:
The Cuyahoga County Board of
Elections is hiring.
The board is looking for poll
workers to help out on Election Day, Nov. 5. They’re especially in need of
Independent and Republicans to work on bi-partisan teams at voting locations
across the county.
Workers can earn up to $200. To
apply call the Poll Worker Hotline at 216-443-3277 or visit the board’s website.
In the election, Cuyahoga County is
asking voters to approve a charter
amendment that would keep the sheriff as an appointed position but
grant the office greater autonomy and bolster council’s oversight. Cuyahoga
Community College is asking voters to approve a .4-mil property tax increase on
top of an existing a 1.9-mil property tax that’s also up for renewal.
The ballot includes 69 school and
municipal issues, in communities like Euclid,
Cleveland Heights and Parma.

President Trump in Minneapolis today
Despite Mayor Jacob Frey's efforts to interfere with the President's rally this evening in Minneapolis (see here and here), the event is ON. From Freedom’s Lighthouse:
President Donald Trump will hold a
massive Rally tonight in Minneapolis, Minnesota, at the downtown Target Center.
Trump supporters are already lined up early this morning, and the Rally
promises to be must-see TV. The rally is scheduled to begin at 7 PM CT.
This will be Trump’s first rally
since Democrats began their Kangaroo Court “Impeachment Inquiry,” and something
tells me President Trump will have something to say about it tonight!
People forget that Trump lost
Minnesota by only 1.5% or 44,000 votes. He is going to make a big push to win
this long-held Democratic State in 2020.
NOTE: Trump is going right
into radical Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar’s District with this rally. Trump may be
able to use Omar and her radical views as a rallying cry to win Minnesota in
2020!
7 PM Central Time, so that’s 8 pm in Cleveland. Look for
links sometime after 6 PM at Conservative Treehouse here. For Right Side Broadcasting Network streaming, click here.

Indexing, advertising and payments: 3 threats to Free Speech
Daniel Greenfield has more on the threat to free speech, and
how Big Tech censors information. At Front Page:
After the 2016 election, the claim
that free speech had gone too far and needed to be controlled became widely
accepted, first in the media, and then among the big dot coms who coordinated a
censorship campaign with media fact checkers. The stated goal was to stamp out
‘disinformation’. And ‘disinformation’ was defined as any viewpoint that media
lefties disagreed with or found disagreeable.
Fact checkers were embedded into
Facebook and Google’s operations. Conservative content was censored, deranked,
and pushed under corporate media content. The ‘disinformation’ pretext, which
was supposed to describe foreign propaganda, was extended to apply to nearly
any conservative view.
. . .
This push to suppress conservative
content on Google, Facebook, Twitter, and other social media companies is an
attack on indexing. People find posts, articles, and videos through search
engines, these days largely a Google monopoly, and peer feeds on social media.
The indexing attack has been successful with conservative sites losing traffic,
and conservatives being banned on social media.
But indexing is just one prong of
the attack. The others are advertising and payments.
If you’re a leftist, you don’t want
people finding conservative content. Going after indexing means that the people
who aren’t specifically looking for conservative content won’t find it. The
idea is to turn conservative media into a ghetto. The impact on elections and
national debates is obvious.
. . .
There is much more in the full article here.

Young Black Leadership Summit links
The Young Black Leadership Summit took place at the White
House yesterday. I tuned into One America News (OAN) for part of Candace Owens’s
speech and most of President Trump’s speech. Conservative Treehouse has the video and transcript of the latter. Kyle Morris at Breitbart has a report on Candace Owens’s
speech.
President Trump reiterated themes of particular interest to
his audience, and the mutual admiration of the President and the Young Black
Leaders was palpable. Also of interest was the number of trolls in the comments
at Breitbart attempting to discredit Ms. Owens.
Proof of the pudding for me: just look at the results
that President Trump has delivered on his campaign promises, including those that benefit minorities. And as is pointed
out by one of the speakers:
A while back, President Trump said,
when he was talking to the black community, “If you vote for me, what do you
have to lose?” Because the do-nothing Democrats have done nothing for the black
community. 2020 is around the corner and
we have a lot to lose now because President Donald J. Trump has done so much
for the black community.

appearance.
