Thanks to the news out of Afghanistan, Jen Psaki’s recent admission that the executive branch has been colluding with the tech giants to suppress free speech, has apparently passed into the ether with far less scrutiny than it deserves. In fact, this is such a clear violation of the First Amendment that it defies any obvious logic or rationale. But Psaki’s announcement isn’t the first act in this play; it’s only the most recent act in the left’s years-long flouting of the rule of law.
It appeared, at first, as though there might have been a major revelation in the works and that the administration was simply trying to get out in front of it. The media, however, know that they control the narrative and no matter how big a bomb gets dropped, they are confident that they can whitewash it or twist it into something else. Sadly, their confidence seems well-founded. The Hunter Biden laptop story should have ended Joe Biden’s political career, but the press was able to sweep it all under the rug where it mostly remains to this day.
The only thing that stands between this administration and the kind of dictatorial power that its members so crave is the Bill of Rights and specifically, the First Amendment. The mainstream media is powerful enough to bend and shape the news where they see fit but Donald Trump nevertheless won the 2016 election and seventy-five million people (and probably millions more) voted for him in 2020.
That is appalling to leftists. It looks as if they had formulated a plan, going way back before the 2020 election, to rid themselves of the last vestiges of a free press.

Right - I have said this all along. I am old enough to remember the kind of stuff that went on to ‘cover up’ politicians who were caught!
I also remember when the Liberals ceased to make even a PRETENSE of covering their crimes.
I think the shift to wholesale, ‘in your face’ crime began the instant they pulled off the coup that got “O’Bozo” into the WH!
I recognized the change the day that “O’Bozo’ was caught having had (and openly cultivated) his long standing, direct and personal ‘relationship’ with that certifiable lunatic, “Rev.” Wright.
I didn’t think his handling or explaination of that ‘relationship’ was sufficient, timely or sincere. Once it was apparent that he’d get away with his connection to the ‘God Damn America’ jackass, I knew that he’d do what ever he wanted ... no questions asked... It was all going to change, and forever
Exactly.
OUR problem is that we lay the entire blame on the democrat party.
Folks, nobody can ever win a war unless they accurately identify the enemy.
Yep, democrats don’t even bother to hide wrongdoing anymore. But do we EVER hear a PEEP from the Republican Party??? Not anymore.
They’re completely IN ON IT. Didn’t we figure this out in November of 2020?!?!?
Or “Democrats Never Plan to Face the Voters in A Fair Election Again...”
They aren’t trying to hid it because there is no opposition party. On all the big domestic issues the GOP and Democrats are in basic alignment: Open borders, health care, American job destroying unfair trade, etc.

Countless hardcore Trump supporters, myself included, WARNED Trump to get away from the Assistant Democrat (GOP) Party and establish a true second political party for his 75+ million supporters. We advised that because it was blatantly obvious that many of the movers and shakers in the GOP are “never Trumpers” who will do whatever they possibly can to assist the Democrats in their efforts to defeat him.
I think the shift to wholesale, ‘in your face’ crime began the instant they pulled off the coup that got “O’Bozo” into the WH!

There wasn’t a doubt in my mind in the run-up to the ‘08 election that if the Kenyan became President that would be the beginning of the end of our Constitutional Republic. That’s why I designed and printed several thousand flyers clearly warning that he was America’s most dangerous enemy. A wheelchair-bound friend and I distributed those flyers in northern Virginia, western Pennsylvania, and eastern Ohio. Guess I should have printed more flyers!
Rd later.
