Legendary Hollywood actor James Woods, whose home is in danger from the fires, also stated a major insurance company canceled all policies in his neighborhood “about four months ago.”

Speaking with the media, a local woman said her 90-year-old parents “got canceled from their fire insurance,” blaming the state of California for leaving taxpaying citizens without coverage.

“They’ve lived in this house for 75 years and they’ve had the same insurance and these insurance people decided to cancel their fire,” she said. “And we’re going through this and they have no fire insurance, so thank you California insurance companies supporting residents who pay taxes and love California. And they wonder why people leave California.”

Responding to a post questioning whether or not insurance companies will treat victims better than the people who lost homes in last year’s Appalachia floods, James Woods wrote, “Actually one of the major insurances companies canceled all the policies in our neighborhood about four months ago.” […]

Biden Confirms He’s Considering Preemptive Pardons https://freerreport.com/biden-confirms-hes-considering-preemptive-pardons/ https://freerreport.com/biden-confirms-hes-considering-preemptive-pardons/#respond Wed, 08 Jan 2025 22:22:06 +0000 https://freerreport.com/biden-confirms-hes-considering-preemptive-pardons/ President Joe Biden in a Jan. 5 interview confirmed that he is considering whether to issue preemptive pardons.

White House officials have said that Biden plans to issue additional pardons and commutations before his term ends.

Preemptive pardons would differ from those Biden has already issued and those issued by other presidents in their final days in office. They would protect people from prosecution for charges that have not yet been brought.

“Some of your supporters have encouraged you to issue preemptive pardons to people like Liz Cheney and Anthony Fauci … will you do that?” USA TODAY’s Susan Page asked Biden during the interview.

The individuals suggested have drawn criticism from President-elect Donald Trump, who is set to take office again on Jan. 20. […]

Mark Zuckerberg Doesn’t Get Amnesty for His Anti-American Censorship Schemes https://freerreport.com/mark-zuckerberg-doesnt-get-amnesty-for-his-anti-american-censorship-schemes-3/ https://freerreport.com/mark-zuckerberg-doesnt-get-amnesty-for-his-anti-american-censorship-schemes-3/#respond Wed, 08 Jan 2025 20:49:22 +0000 https://freerreport.com/mark-zuckerberg-doesnt-get-amnesty-for-his-anti-american-censorship-schemes-3/ Mark Zuckerberg announced on Tuesday that Meta is super-duper apologetic for censoring its political enemies for years on end. He promises to do better because his tech behemoth is actually a huge fan of free expression … They’ve just made a few “mistakes.”

That’s about as sincere as Meta’s PR blitz got, with Zuckerberg pointing the finger at pretty much everybody — legacy media, “complex” and “automated systems,” “filters,” political “movements,” the state of California, the U.S. government, experts, and third-party fact-checkers — except himself.

“The problem with complex systems is they make mistakes,” Zuckerberg apologized rationalized in a video message. “After Trump first got elected in 2016, the legacy media wrote nonstop about how misinformation was a threat to democracy. We tried in good faith to address those concerns without becoming the arbiters of truth. But the fact-checkers have just been too politically biased.”

Many conservatives seem tickled at the thought of the second coming of Elon, savior of free speech. But color me more skeptical and enraged. I’m sure Zuckerberg’s sudden change of heart has nothing to do with Donald Trump getting ready to retake office after Zuckerberg banned him from Facebook and rigged the 2020 election against him …

If Meta follows through on its promises, the country will undoubtedly benefit. Moving tech employees from California to Texas sounds like an improvement. Accounts not being nuked for calling a man a man and a woman a woman is objectively good and long overdue, even if it’s the bare minimum a social media site can do. […]

Judge Cannon Blocks Release of Jack Smith’s Final Report on Trump Lawfare Cases https://freerreport.com/breaking-judge-cannon-blocks-release-of-jack-smiths-final-report-on-trump-lawfare-cases/ https://freerreport.com/breaking-judge-cannon-blocks-release-of-jack-smiths-final-report-on-trump-lawfare-cases/#respond Wed, 08 Jan 2025 11:17:13 +0000 https://freerreport.com/breaking-judge-cannon-blocks-release-of-jack-smiths-final-report-on-trump-lawfare-cases/ Judge Aileen Cannon temporarily blocked Jack Smith’s report on his lawfare investigation into President Trump.

US Attorney General Merrick Garland previously said he would release Jack Smith’s final report on Trump.

Judge Cannon’s temporary injunction lasts until three days after a federal appeals court issues a ruling on a pending motion to block Jack Smith’s report in a case involving other defendants in the classified documents case.

Lawyers for Trump’s co-defendants Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliviera asked Judge Cannon in a Monday night filing to block Jack Smith’s report based on her previous ruling that the special counsel’s appointment was unconstitutional.

US Attorney General Merrick Garland is now blocked from releasing, sharing, or transmitting” Jack Smith’s final report – “or any drafts of such Report outside the Department of Justice, or (b) otherwise releasing, distributing, conveying, or sharing with anyone outside the Department of Justice any information or conclusions in the Final Report or in drafts thereof.” […]

Danish PM Says Greenland ‘Not for Sale’ After Don Jr, Charlie Kirk Visit Island https://freerreport.com/breaking-danish-pm-says-greenland-not-for-sale-after-don-jr-charlie-kirk-visit-island/ https://freerreport.com/breaking-danish-pm-says-greenland-not-for-sale-after-don-jr-charlie-kirk-visit-island/#respond Wed, 08 Jan 2025 11:03:07 +0000 https://freerreport.com/breaking-danish-pm-says-greenland-not-for-sale-after-don-jr-charlie-kirk-visit-island/ Once Donald Trump Jr. arrived in Greenland after his father signaled that he wanted the United States to buy the island nation, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has said that Greenland is “not for sale.”

Frederiksen commented that “that there is a lot of support among the people of Greenland that Greenland is not for sale and will not be in the future either.” Trump has indicated that the large island territory is necessary for international security purposes as well as security for the United States because of its strategic position in the North Atlantic.

During an interview on Tuesday, Frederiksen added, “On one hand, I am really happy regarding the rise in American interest in Greenland. But of course it is important that it takes place in a way where it is the Greenlanders’ decision, what their future holds,” per Politico.

During a lunch meeting in the territory on Tuesday, Trump Jr. called his father, who at the time said that Greenland is “strategically located” that “needs security for itself and also needs security very much for the world.”

As his son landed in Greenland on Tuesday, the president-elect posted to Truth Social, “Don Jr. and my Reps landing in Greenland. The reception has been great. They, and the Free World, need safety, security, strength, and PEACE! This is a deal that must happen. MAGA. MAKE GREENLAND GREAT AGAIN!” […]

J6ers Ask Trump for Pardons in DC as Election Is Certified https://freerreport.com/j6ers-ask-trump-for-pardons-in-dc-as-election-is-certified/ https://freerreport.com/j6ers-ask-trump-for-pardons-in-dc-as-election-is-certified/#respond Wed, 08 Jan 2025 04:16:18 +0000 https://freerreport.com/j6ers-ask-trump-for-pardons-in-dc-as-election-is-certified/ As Congress cheered the certification of Donald Trump and JD Vance’s election win, Jan. 6 prisoners and allies were joining together to ask the president-elect to give them justice.

At an event on Jan. 6 in Washington, D.C., J6ers who have been or are still unjustly imprisoned (in the case of Jake Lang, for years in solitary confinement without trial) spoke out in person or by video. They were joined by attorneys who take the J6 cases to court and multiple media and business figures. Themes at the event included requests to incoming President Trump for pardons for all J6ers, no exceptions; admiration for the Founders and thus horror at violations of Constitutional rights; and demands for accountability. Joe Biden pardoned or commuted sentences for 1500+ criminals including sexual offenders, murderers, and Chinese spies (not to mention his own son), yet some J6ers have received sentences of decades in prison.

Online influencer George (@BehizyTweets) was one of multiple speakers and panelists who praised all those who have in ways large and small stood up for rule of law amidst Biden-Harris weaponization of lawfare. “I hope posterity looks down on everyone in this room with extreme satisfaction,” he said.

Lawyer and podcast host Viva Frei emphasized how serious the relentless Democrat campaign against all Jan. 6 protestors has been while hundreds of truly violent, pro-terrorist leftist activists went free. The aim was “to persecute and prosecute your political rivals, to discredit them, to turn them into domestic terrorists, to weaponize the justice system against half of America.” MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell agreed: “evil had a back up plan, and that back up plan was Jan. 6,” he insisted.

J6 activist Suzzanne Monk insisted that the community’s aims for pardons are in line with the views of the Founding Fathers, who in their day were vilified by opponents as violent, dangerous traitors for defending their rights. “We continue to need the Founders’ vision of this country, and we need to continue to implement it, because the Founders knew that there was actually one more [ruling] branch, one more group of people that were going to be critical to … the checks and balance, and that is We the People,” she emphasized. Some Jan. 6 were charged with “violence” in defending themselves from Capitol police brutality, which killed Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland. […]

Mark Zuckerberg Claims Facebook Is Ditching “Fact-Checkers” and Going to Community Notes Similar to 𝕏 https://freerreport.com/mark-zuckerberg-claims-facebook-is-ditching-fact-checkers-and-going-to-community-notes-similar-to-x/ https://freerreport.com/mark-zuckerberg-claims-facebook-is-ditching-fact-checkers-and-going-to-community-notes-similar-to-x/#respond Tue, 07 Jan 2025 12:57:24 +0000 https://freerreport.com/mark-zuckerberg-claims-facebook-is-ditching-fact-checkers-and-going-to-community-notes-similar-to-x/ Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is a scoundrel, a billionaire snake who has backstabbed pretty much everyone he’s personally dealt with ever since rising to prominence. He spent over $400 million of his own money to prevent President Donald Trump from winning in 2020. His “platform” has been amongst the most egregious suppressors of speech for nearly a decade.

It’s important to understand the context surrounding Zuckerberg following a string of seemingly positive moves. First, he met with President Trump’s team to try to get involved with the administration. Then, he donated $1,000,000 to President Trump’s inauguration fund. Yesterday, he added Trump ally Dana White to the board at Meta. Now this…

According to Fox News:

Meta is ending its fact-checking program and lifting restrictions on speech to “restore free expression” across Facebook, Instagram and Meta platforms, admitting its current content moderation practices have “gone too far.”

“We’re going to get back to our roots and focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our policies and restoring free expression on our platforms,” Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a video posted Tuesday morning. “More specifically, we’re going to get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with Community Notes similar to 𝕏, starting in the U.S.”

“Fact-checkers” have plagued Facebook for years. They are arguably the most biased of the “journalistic” censors out there and have been a total embarrassment for the company. Nevertheless, they’ve effectively subdued conservatives on the platform. Replacing them with “Community Notes” similar to 𝕏 is a welcomed change… if it’s real.

All of these are positive signs, which is why it’s important to remember the context. Everyone who has dealt with Zuckerberg over the last two decades has regretted it. That includes the Biden regime, which Zuckerberg exposed over the summer as “pressuring” him and his platform to engage in censorship.

Perhaps he’s really making a change, but we shouldn’t believe it until we see it for a long time. Does he deserve the benefit of the doubt? Absolutely not. He should be treated like the snake that he is, kept at arm’s length and with the assumption that no matter how “reformed” he seems today, he can bite back like a cornered viper at any moment.

Illegal Alien Found With AR-15, $750K Drugs in Publicly Funded Hotel https://freerreport.com/illegal-migrant-found-with-ar-15-750k-drugs-in-publicly-funded-hotel/ https://freerreport.com/illegal-migrant-found-with-ar-15-750k-drugs-in-publicly-funded-hotel/#respond Tue, 07 Jan 2025 09:40:08 +0000 https://freerreport.com/illegal-migrant-found-with-ar-15-750k-drugs-in-publicly-funded-hotel/ Massachusetts law enforcement officials have apprehended Leonardo Andujar Sanchez, a 28-year-old Dominican national, at a taxpayer-supported shelter in Revere, Massachusetts. Andujar faces charges including firearm possession without legal authorization, possession of ammunition, possession of high-capacity magazines, and trafficking heroin. The Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office spokesman confirmed these charges.

The arrest occurred on December 27 after a search warrant was executed at the Quality Inn. During the search, authorities confiscated an AR-15 rifle, ammunition, and approximately five kilograms of illicit drugs, including fentanyl and cocaine. The drugs are estimated to have a street value of around $750,000. The arrest underscores ongoing issues related to unlawful migrants residing in state-funded shelters.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials revealed that Andujar had entered the United States illegally before his arrest. ICE has issued an immigration detainer in conjunction with Revere police, signifying intentions to take him into custody after local legal proceedings.

This case is part of a broader pattern involving illegal migrants in Massachusetts shelters. Earlier this year, another migrant, Cory Alvarez—a Haitian national—was arrested for raping a disabled child at another migrant hotel.

The influx of illegal migrants and inadmissible foreign nationals in Massachusetts is costing the state huge sums of money, projected to exceed $1 billion by fiscal year 2025. […]

Authorities confirmed that the package was found in the 5000 block of Hayes Street NE on Sunday afternoon, according to the Daily Mail.

Members of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) unit were dispatched to the scene at 2:15 p.m. to assess the item.

Police immediately cordoned off the area, closing the road to ensure public safety while bomb squad crews conducted their investigation.

“The investigation has concluded and revealed that the package was fireworks. There are currently traffic closures in place but will be lifted shortly,” an MPD spokesperson told Daily Mail. […]

Biden Admin Knew Last Year, China Could Shut Down Our Infrastructure https://freerreport.com/biden-admin-knew-last-year-china-could-shut-down-our-infrastructure/ https://freerreport.com/biden-admin-knew-last-year-china-could-shut-down-our-infrastructure/#respond Mon, 06 Jan 2025 00:38:31 +0000 https://freerreport.com/biden-admin-knew-last-year-china-could-shut-down-our-infrastructure/ The Biden administration knew how bad it was and did nothing.

Chinese hackers had gained the ability to shut down dozens of U.S. ports, power grids and other infrastructure targets at will, Jake Sullivan told telecommunications and technology executives at a secret meeting at the White House in the fall of 2023, according to people familiar with it. The attack could threaten lives, and the government needed the companies’ help to root out the intruders.

What no one at the briefing knew, including Sullivan: China’s hackers were already working their way deep inside U.S. telecom networks, too.

Did they know? Did they not know?

The bottom line is they did nothing useful. The WSJ story pretends this is a new development, but China has a long history of catastrophic hacks, and the situation has been allowed to get and worse.

The telecom hacks completely compromised our communications, still hasn’t been resolved and may never be.

Some national security officials involved in the investigation said they believe the telecom hack is so severe, and the networks so compromised, that the U.S. may never be able to say with certainty that the Chinese hackers have been fully rooted out.

Certainly not if we keep letting it happen with no consequences. […]
