Incredible what the Deep State has done to America, right under the vaunted media’s nose while they turned a blind eye, and deliberately sat on their leftist asses.

Since December, a small but growing group of journalists, analysts, and researchers have documented the rise of a “Censorship Industrial Complex”, a network of U.S. government agencies, and government-funded think tanks.

Also includes such nonprofits as the ADL and SPLC.

The ADL admits its leading role in imposing censorship on Twitter and on PayPal.

However, the World Jewish Congress took the lead in opening the door to censorship on Amazon.

Like all successful fascists, she is clothed in the trappings of ordinariness and acceptability, when in fact she is a dire fascist enemy of the 1st amendment.

Why the heck do you think Obama put that former Communist in charge of the CIA?

I still remember
You dressed in grey
Working undercover
For the CIA
You were cursing Silber
Living in Back Bay
Sailing on the Charles
When I heard you say

Renee Diresta

Was she deceived, or is she a communist. I personally believe the latter.

The good news is that change is happening and quickly. In the wake of broad public backlash, the Department of Homeland Security in August 2022 terminated the Disinformation Governance Board. CISA removed information about domestic-facing censorship from its website and scrapped its MDM (“Misinformation, Disinformation, and Malinformation”) subcommittee. And Congress has been holding multiple hearings on the rise of the censorship industry, including one last week that included the Attorney General of Louisiana and the former Attorney General of Missouri.

Did they really, or did they just take it underground and place it under something else? These people are very devious. There is no reason to believe that it has been eliminated at all.

...the rise of a “Censorship Industrial Complex”, a network of U.S. government agencies, and government-funded think tanks. Over the last six years, these entities have coordinated their efforts to both spread disinformation and to censor journalists, politicians, and ordinary Americans. They have done so directly and indirectly, including by playing good cop/bad cop with Twitter and Facebook. Hundreds and perhaps thousands of people have been involved in these censorship and disinformation campaigns in the U.S., Canada, and the UK.

I like that term, “Censorship Industrial Complex”. It’s more specific than “Deep State”.

To be honest, censorship and “yellow journalism” have always been with us. Rupert Murdoch is a modern version of William Randolph Hearst (Citizen Kane).

That’s why you gotta love what Elon Musk is doing. Daily I try to read his Twitter feed. He is the champion of free speech and he’s showing the world why it’s vital to publicly expose the way the underlying algorithm is applied to keep on-line discussions civil without destroying free speech.

Ha! He’s transforming the “Al Gore-ithms” of Gestapo Censorship and Politicized Science into “Freedom of Speech algorithms”, tools to Make America Great Again.

We are blessed to have this man as the leader and beacon of American industry. Combine that with the courage and wisdom of President Trump and you’ve got a double whammy for saving our Republic and returning it to civil sanity and law-in-order.

Ironically, living in Japan now, I see a country that America thoroughly conquered in World War II, but who — out of the ashes, death, and rubble of total defeat — has nonetheless preserved and built upon the virtues of a free, moral, and civil society better than America has.

I was told that when women were in charge, we’d get comity and good government.

Now that they are, all we get is comedy.

And women make horrible comedians.
