The news is still abuzz with headlines about Elon Musk since his move to purchase Twitter was successful. He hasn’t even walked through the headquarters doors yet, but the media is out to slander him before he can even make changes . And the government has stood up its own bureaucratic office to ensure only the right kind of thoughts get out if Musk goes through with opening the free speech floodgates .
But the government doesn’t even need to do anything. The fact is the private sector is more than happy to perform the censorship on behalf of the leftist authoritarians in the Biden Administration. Just as Twitter would regularly silence speech it didn’t like, the rest of Big Tech may already be gearing up to silence Twitter if the need arises.
Google and Apple aren’t exactly exemplars of morality and fairness. What makes anyone believe their opinions of what constitutes “hate speech” or “disinformation” is anything close to objective? If the past is any indication, it’s far more likely that they are of the same mind as the singing chucklehead leading the Ministry of Truth .
The fate of free speech in this country could hardly be said to be secure as the government and the private sectored begin teaming up to police speech on behalf of the left, the same left who perpetuate such lies as men can become women if they really, really wish like super-duper hard.
The question is not if free speech will be abridged under the watch of the present administration but rather to what extent should we expect free speech to be curtailed?
I get the feeling the left is rather scared of what truths may be allowed to be spoken on a platform allowed to operate without leftist oversight. Perhaps Americans should really start asking […]

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!
