Since coming to Washington DC, Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) has been one of the most outspoken opponents of Big Tech censorship and the monopolies they represent. Facebook et al have been absolute tyrants when it comes to their handling of “controversial” topics. Invariably, it is conservatives who are quashed while violent progressives get a free pass.
But the tyranny of Big Tech isn’t going far enough for the Biden regime. They not only want all Covid-19 “vaccine misinformation” to be silenced. They want ALL Big Tech platforms to universally silence those who spread it. It doesn’t get more draconian than that when it comes to propaganda and censorship, and White House Press Secretary Jen “Circle Back” Psaki is proud to be the modern day version of the ancient Greek lawmaker, Draco.

— Townhall.com (@townhallcom) July 16, 2021 Hawley had a response to this unambiguous overreach of government into what are supposed to be private companies. Here’s Jen Psaki setting the social media monopolies’ terms of service for them. Who thinks these are still “private” companies? https://t.co/pIj6FxPeIa
— Josh Hawley (@HawleyMO) July 16, 2021 There is mounting evidence that Big Tech companies have been working with the Democratic Party and the Deep State to subvert participation of users, again invariably of a conservative worldview. They have even been accused of helping both the DNC and Deep State spy on American citizens. But, as Hawley points out, they are considered to be “private” companies that have the very public protection of Section 230.
As the White House wields Big Tech as a censorship tool against vaccine skeptics, how long can the maintain the charade that they’re “private” companies with no allegiance to their Democrat puppetmasters?

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!
