"They are coming for us," Newsmax's Greg Kelly warned his viewers this week.

Biden is trying to "radically change the nature of the country", said conservative commentator Ben Shapiro. He warned listeners about a coming "dictatorship", one that could be orchestrated through his presidential orders.

The actions from the new administration in the White House come at a moment when conservatives feel attacked from all sides. The former president has been silenced on Twitter and they allege that the social media companies are censoring conservative voices on their platforms.

"It's a running theme," says Howard Polskin, publisher of a newsletter, The Righting, that monitors conservative media. "They say there's going to be massive oversteps by big government, and re-education camps. So many Americans feel their liberties are at stake, and it's patently false."

If people/groups are trying to suppress ideas, they aren’t “liberal” at all.
Biden the Dictator ruling by edict.
The erosion of our liberties and freedom of speech,religion etc is happening at an exponential rate.
LOL @ BBC.
“Right Wing” = anybody who opposes big government.
How nuts. The President and the Democrat Congress say that Republican voters are coming for them and that is why unofficial martial law is in effect in DC and every state’s capitol.
>> and they allege that the social media companies are censoring conservative voices on their platforms.
Gaslighting us to say that it isn’t happening.
Bring it
We are waiting
“Biden is trying to “radically change the nature of the country”, said conservative commentator Ben Shapiro.”
Shapiro’s been drinking. It’s not Biden; he’s just the face of evil.
It’s up to conservative countries outside the U.S. to start putting pressure on big tech. Our Aussie Prime Minister in recent days has told Suckaberg, on one particular issue, that Bing may become the government choice if they don’t pull their heads in. I would be happy if our government reviewed what tech companies are used on all government devices. We cut out Huawei from government computers because of their connections to the CCP. Suckabigberg is no less entangled.
Except for the billboards telling people to call the fib if their neighbor went to hear the president speak.
Whites. Is.

28 Jan: Foreign Policy: The United States Needs a BBC
The Beeb’s influence is rising stateside, revealing a hunger for nonpartisan news. America’s own networks should take note.
BY ELISABETH BRAW
(AEI: Braw is a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, former senior research fellow at the Royal United Services Institute for Defence and Security Studies in London, associate fellow at the European Leadership Network, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, and a senior consultant at Control Risks, a global risk consultancy, frequent speaker at European and NATO conferences, Ms. Braw often appears on BBC Radio 4 and other international media. Ms. Braw attended the University of Hagen in Germany)
In July 2020, the BBC released some remarkable numbers: In the previous 12 months, 438 million people had tuned into BBC News, 351 million to the BBC World Service, and 137 million to BBC Global News. All three channels, as well as the BBC’s entertainment channel, had registered double-digit growth...
The United States, still dealing with the aftermath of years of slanted information, should take note. What the country needs, it may be, is public-service news...
According to a 2020 report by the University of Oxford’s Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, that isn’t necessarily true. Rather, 60 percent of Americans want neutral news. What’s more, 56 percent of Americans find the BBC trustworthy, which makes the BBC the most trusted non-local news organization in America. Americans are also now BBC News’s second-largest international audience, at nearly 50 million. Outside the United Kingdom, only India has more BBC viewers and listeners than the United States...
Access to a Plain News Fund, with congressional oversight and financed by social media companies and national news organizations, would give local newspapers a shot at survival and allow new ones to materialize...
Imagine if Americans were able to easily access real news and know that the information offered to them was both accurate and neutral...
Public-service news joint ventures, amply funded by Facebook, Twitter, Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC, and with congressional oversight...
Yes, some media organizations already operate civic initiatives. Facebook runs Journalism Initiative focused on local news...

wouldn’t that be great...not.
How often do Shapiro and these others reiterate and state on their shows that Biden is unelected and illegitimate, not president and we are in a constitutional crisis?
This is only happening because WE and Republican state legislatures are letting it.
figures would be lower if the survey was done by anyone but the dreadful YouGov. sadly, Boris seems to have dropped his plan to reform the Beeb:
1 Jan 2021: Daily Mail: Nearly half of Britons think the BBC fails to represent their values including a majority in the North of England, survey finds
•Figure rose to 51 per cent in the north of England and 47 per cent in Scotland
•YouGov survey also found only four per cent of Britons think BBC’s values have become more like theirs
By Harry Howard and Jack Wright
The new survey, carried out for The Times newspaper, also found only four per cent of Britons think the BBC’s values have become more like theirs.
By contrast 33 per cent said the corporation’s values had become less like theirs.
Overall, older men living outside London and the South-east were most likely to be unhappy with the BBC’s perceived values...
Prime Minister Boris Johnson has previously made no secret of his desire to reform the corporation.
There is speculation the licence fee could be scrapped...
Research by regulator Ofcom last November found that viewers think the BBC is the least impartial of the main TV news providers.
It lagged behind Channel 5, Channel 4 and ITV for its coverage...
