The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Murthy v. Missouri (2024) takes place at a pivotal moment in American history. In this case, the Court declined to prevent the federal government from colluding with social media firms. This move raises the possibility of a crushing recurrence of state-sponsored cowardice better known as totalitarianism. The Murthy case sets an ominous precedent that reinforces Senator Mark Warner's claim that it is absolutely essential for the federal government to communicate with social media companies to prevent malign foreign election interference. Shortly after the Court’s decision, the FBI announced that it was resuming coordination with social media firms to uncover alleged 2024 election interference. Given the behavior of the FBI and American intelligence officials during the 2016 and 2020 elections, most Americans should be worried about the return of the surveillance state’s ability to initiate domestic election interference.
Americans have consistently witnessed undeniable evidence of federal interference in our elections thus undermining our democracy. After all, the Department of Justice, days after closing its investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server scandal in 2016, initiated an investigation -- Crossfire Hurricane -- focused on false claims that Donald Trump was a Russian agent during the 2016 election. This investigation triggered applications to Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court for wiretaps that arguably entrapped American citizens. Special Counsel John Durham, charged with investigating the breathlessly infuriating and oft-repeated claim that Pres. Trump was a Russian agent during the campaign, exonerated the 45th President of the United States. Additionally, Durham found that FBI and Justice Department investigators engaged in a politically and legally charged investigation based on uncorroborated intelligence. Moreover, the investigation proceeded at a speed that was a distinct departure from the norm. This investigation justifiably demolished the reputation of both the FBI and the Justice Department.

The government employees participating in this censorship are the ones who need to be treated the way the J6 protesters are being treated. I am sure it is about to ramp up again.
Thank you.
Remember seeing the pictures of the TECH CEOs meeting at the white house? A simple ‘summit’ or visit like this is the key to integrating government with the companies that are fully compliant when it comes time to monitor and control the general population. Of course it is all legal because the congress passed ‘laws.’
Isn't this, and what the tech CEOs did, the definition of fascism?
Thank you, Amy Comey Barrett.
