Texas Democrats who fled the state to stop the passage of voting (and other) bills in that state have taken to Twitter to post pictures of themselves on a private jet, shared pictures of what they’re eating , posted selfies and insulted Republicans .
But forget what you’ve seen with your own eyes and instead take a look at an alternate reality in this Associated Press report: Democratic lawmakers who fled Texas to block a restrictive voting bill are living a life of scrutiny, stress and secrecy. The state legislators find themselves balancing a punishing schedule and other obligations all under a national spotlight. https://t.co/1A65wSn2eX
— The Associated Press (@AP) July 16, 2021 “Restrictive voting bill.” There’s that “journalism” helping parrot Democrat talking points again. There’s also a “Republicans pounce” element to that: They’re victims now. https://t.co/kNbThwW57J
— jimtreacher.substack.com (@jtLOL) July 16, 2021 Where’s our tiny violin? A paid vacation whose entire purpose is to AVOID WORKING AND DEMOCRACY is not punishing, but rewarding, like this solemn respect from the press.
— Razor (@hale_razor) July 16, 2021 Yeah, that private flight from Texas to DC with a case of beer looked super stressful. Genuinely surprised the AP left the Dems’ comms people off the byline of this story. https://t.co/plHmTmNWp4
— Omri Ceren (@omriceren) July 16, 2021 This is embarrassing.
The journalists who actually built the @AP as a news organization have to watch it turn into a partisan rag and progressive fangirl. https://t.co/0C3YkcKVuY

— Beorn (@Beorn2000) July 16, 2021 FFS. If they were Republicans the AP would be excoriating them. https://t.co/NQGjZVSJ7q — Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) July 16, 2021 It’s not as if they had no choice: Well, they could have stayed in Austin and voted. https://t.co/WEFKBfnvkG — Byron York (@ByronYork) July 16, 2021 The “secrecy” part of the headline is something else: So much secrecy as they post everything on twitter, you effing liars.— John J Rambo (@JohnJRamboEsq) July 16, 2021 And taking pictures of their […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
