Southwest Airlines “does not condone Employees sharing their personal political opinions while on the job.” Or at least that is what the company said after a pilot allegedly used the political euphemism “Let’s Go Brandon” on a recent flight.“Let’s Go Brandon,” a misinterpretation of the phrase “f— Joe Biden,” has become a rallying cry for Republicans who are not thrilled by the president’s performance in office. The phrase meant nothing a few weeks ago but now some on the left are taking it as a threat.The phrase has clearly become a divisive chant and Southwest announced that it would be investigating the situation. (It’s likely the pilot actually said “ Let’s go Braves .”)Either way, it’s perfectly reasonable that Southwest does not want its employees talking about divisive political issues. It’s quite likely that other companies would have responded the same way. After all, the voice of one pilot does not reflect the values of every single employee at the company.Corporations can say that employees should do their jobs, serve their customers, and leave politics out of it — but they should also hold their CEOs to the same standard.CEOs have taken it upon themselves to become political spokespeople for whatever liberal cause happens to be in vogue. CEOs release fomenting statements of solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement during the protests following the death of George Floyd. They condemn entire state legislatures for passing election reform laws or abortion restrictions.They even hire political activists like Colin Kaepernick to be the spokesperson for the company.Major League Baseball punished the entire state of Georgia by pulling the All-Star Game out of Atlanta because the state’s election laws upset commissioner Rob Manfred — who has since gone silent on the fact that the World Series is being played in Atlanta. It didn’t matter if an employee of Major League Baseball actually supported Georgia’s election laws. Manfred decided to speak for the whole league.In response to the alleged “Let’s Go Brandon” […]

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!
