    Durham says Democrat-allied tech executive spied on Trump’s White House office.
    Washington Examiner (Moderate Right) • Factual Grade 75% • 9 min read

    Special counsel John Durham says he is building a case to show a technology executive with whom indicted Democratic lawyer, Michael Sussmann, on the payroll of Hillary Clinton's campaign was working to build a Trump-Russia collusion narrative gained access to internet traffic to try and obtain dirt on former President Donald Trump.
    ...
    Durham revealed in a Friday court filing that he has evidence that “Technology Executive-1” but known to be former Neustar Senior Vice President Rodney Joffe “exploited” domain name system internet traffic at “a particular health care provider” (which was likely Spectrum Health), Trump Tower, Trump’s Central Park West apartment building, and “the Executive Office of the President of the United States.”
    ...
    The special counsel said Joffe “also enlisted the assistance of researchers at a U.S.-based university,” Georgia Tech, [and] tasked those researchers to mine internet data to establish “an inference” and “narrative” tying then-candidate Trump to Russia.

Should Coca Cola speak out against alleged Chinese human rights abuses?

357 votes, 45 comments

Context: Coca Cola refrains from political statements at Beijing Olympics but does so for domestic issues in the US.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

Yes - This is difficult, because most businesses depend on China to stay competitive. I think this is less a Coca-Cola problem and more a US foreign policy problem. It is scary that China has become so powerful that they are able to limit the free speech rights of American citizens a world away. However, I am not a utilitarian. There is a moral imperative for us to take a stand against evil. China wouldn't be so powerful if we actually stood for the principals we professed.


No - Companies should refrain from any political or social discourse. Whether it be China's human rights abuses, voter...



Unsure - There is no requirement for Coke to speak out. It is up to them and their customers to decide. Coke...
