This weekend Facebook demonetized videos and live streams posted by conservative influencer Will Johnson, who says the platform reacted after he talked about alleged LGBT+ child grooming during what activists and the government have called “pride month” in a recent episode of his Unite America First podcast.
“I was talking about them targeting children,” Johnson told Valiant. “I was saying children should be off limits. They say they’re not grooming children, but on June 1 that’s exactly what they started doing.”
Of note, Johnson said he was not restricted by Facebook because of the content of his live stream. Instead, Facebook claimed without evidence that he was promoting a scam, and took away his ability to earn money for 90 days.
“I never asked anyone to sign up, get this program, none of that. What is the fraud?” Johnson continued, “All I did was tell the truth, I showed what [LGBT activists] are doing.”
The video targeted by Facebook was removed by the platform, Johnson told Valiant, but is still available on other big tech sites including YouTube. Johnson said he depends on revenue from Facebook to host his podcast, which sees as many as 50,000 viewers tune in via the big tech platform. Johnson now plans to crowd fund to make up the lost revenue.
“On June 4, 2022 I lost all of my ability to monetize my content,” said Johnson on his crowd funding website . “This was my primary source of income, because I have already been demonetized on YouTube.”
Johnson, who regularly attends left wing protests and Trump rallies to provide on-the-ground interviews, added that “This is the revenue that I use to not only feed my family but also travel on location to bring my supporters the real news.”

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
