Here's the List of Federal Government Agencies Ordered to Stop Censoring Speech
Townhall ^ | 07/06/2023 | Katie Pavlich

On Independence Day Judge Terry Doughty released a 155-page opinion slamming the Biden administration for widespread censorship of conservative speech online.

"The present case arguably involves the most massive attack against free speech in United States’ history. In their attempts to suppress alleged disinformation, the Federal Government, and particularly the Defendants named here, are alleged to have blatantly ignored the First Amendment’s right to free speech," Doughty wrote.

"Although the censorship alleged in this case almost exclusively targeted conservative speech, the issues raised herein go beyond party lines. The right to free speech is not a member of any political party and does not hold any political ideology," Doughty continues. "It is the purpose of the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment to preserve an uninhibited marketplace of ideas in which truth will ultimately prevail, rather than to countenance monopolization of the market, whether it be by government itself or private licensee."

But it wasn't simply the Biden White House or communications team engaged in the subversion of the First Amendment through big tech social media companies. Instead, it was nearly a dozen federal government agencies whose employees and directors have been ordered to stop contact with social media companies. Here is the full list from the judgement issued by Doughty: 

Department of Homeland Security (DHS)

Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)

National Institute of Allergy and Infections Diseases (NIAID)

Centers for Disease Control (CDC)

United States Census Bureau 

Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)

Department of Justice (DOJ)

Executive Office of the President of the United States

Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)

Department of State

Why not state any and all federal government agencies and personnel.

“But it wasn’t simply the Biden White House or communications team engaged in the subversion of the First Amendment.....”

OH! it was the Biden White House and pretty much all of the agencies under it’s control.
Plus at least as many more that were not named.

Now all in involved are scrambling to circumvent Judge Terry Doughty’s ruling.

Another reason, I think the 1st & 2nd amendment will be on the chopping block as soon as January 21, 2025.

BTW, when all those entities violate the ruling, and they will, what is going to be done to hold them accountable? The DOJ?

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!

What do people think the Valerie Jarrett server network is in the basement of Obama’s old Washington DC residence? The manipulation of media content is done independently of official government if it has to be so.

I hear Zuckerbreath is already censoring Patriots on “Threads…” It will be very useful for kitty pics, though.

Headline is misleading. This is a list of agencies mentioned in the judgement that were known to be doing it. “Here is the full list from the judgement issued by Doughty: ”.

They’ll just start running this through a proxy like the Helen Keller Foundation.

“Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)”

Might as well shut that office down since I think that’s the entirety of what they were doing every day.

They will steal 2024 as they did 2020 and 2022.

The J6 gulag is just a warmup. They will pack the Scotus and federal courts, make Puerto Rico and DC rat states.

They will never relinquish power. The proscriptions will begin the afternoon of January 21st 2025.
