It is critical that we stand up to and forthrightly reject the Biden Administration's unconscionable new assault on freedom.

This truly is that “line in the sand” Carlson stated. It’s an interesting, foul little bubble of gas that was lurking in the mud and was stirred up, perhaps before its time, by the looming Twitter acquisition, which will give us all a better idea of just how much control of that public forum meant to the jackbooters in the Democrat party. This Board is literally designed to protect us from our own opinions by making sure those opinions have consequences. It is intended to smother dissent. Anyone who supports it, Democrat or Republican, is an enemy of America.
