“Taxpayer money spent on manipulating taxpayers.”
They should re-write the article substituting “Contractors” to:
PAID EMPLOYEES OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES
My point, and yours, is that the government is subsidizing the destruction of the First Amendment under the “Contractor” issue. It’s an attempt to shield themselves from what the SCOTUS is clearly going to say.
Congress should bring these contractors in to publicly testify about their involvement in government initiated censorship activities. The public needs directly from them to see what is going on and how their tax dollars are being used to violate First Amendment rights.
