The monolithic payment processor PayPal has unfrozen the account for Moms for Liberty after Florida Governor Ron DeSantis threatened a crackdown.
In a showing of how conservatives can effectively wield executive power to promote free speech, Gov. DeSantis declared he was going to crack down against “woke” banking after Moms for Liberty announced they were denied service by PayPal.
Moms for Liberty Co-Founder Tina Descovich said PayPal froze their account while Gov. DeSantis was giving a speech at the group’s annual summit on July 15.
“While he’s speaking, I started getting emails during that PayPal has stopped processing one by one all of our monthly donors,” Descovich said.
PayPal was completely unresponsive when Descovich pleaded with them to release thousands of dollars in organizational funds that were effectively in limbo.
“I emailed,” Descovich said. “I tried calling again and get another person and they said sorry, there’s nothing you can do.”
DeSantis responded with a demand for legislation to punish woke corporations like PayPal that enact viewpoint discrimination in opposition to the 1st Amendment of the Constitution. PayPal quickly backed down, and Descovich thinks Gov. DeSantis’ strong rhetoric is the reason why they capitulated.
“I do think it helps. I have no other explanation why I have no messages from PayPal that they reversed anything. I have not sent them any more documents to change the status,” Descovich said. “So the only thing I have to point to is that they saw the governor’s press conference and decided to change their minds.” Big League Politics has reported on how Gov. DeSantis is using government power to battle against woke extremism in his state:“ Textbook companies are responding to Republicans cracking down on left-wing indoctrination attempts by removing “woke” content from their materials, in a showing of the effectiveness of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ bold leadership.

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 new GiveSendGo. 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
- Truth Based Media
- 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.
