The Murdering Of Free Speech In America

  Issues & Insights  "In Cato’s 15th letter, the writers who compiled the series of essays under a pen name inspired by the Roman senator who stood against the tyranny of Julius Caesar argued that “freedom of speech is the great bulwark of liberty; they prosper and die together.” Today, we are watching that death play out before us.

"President Joe Biden, whose growing unpopularity is well-deserved, continued to carry on last week what has become a Democratic tradition: He asked the private sector to become partners in censorship with the federal government.

“ 'I make a special appeal to social media companies and media outlets, please deal with disinformation and misinformation that’s on your shows,” he said during a virtual meeting from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. “It has to stop.”

"Of course, Big Tech and the legacy media have been happy to oblige.

“​​When the leader of the majority party in Washington, D.C., issues a demand, the largest corporations listen,” journalist Glenn Greenwald tweeted in response to Biden’s “will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?” proposition.

“ 'Again: so much of the censorship from Google and other tech monopolies is done not on their own accord but under pressure and threats from Democratic Party leaders.”

"Nearly a year ago, Greenwald wrote in his Substack newsletter that “​​in their zeal for control over online speech, House Democrats are getting closer and closer to the constitutional line, if they have not already crossed it.” . . .

"The Dumbest Biden"; . . ." ultimately the dumbest people around are those who voted for Joe."

The Biden myth – this idea that Joe is some average guy who found himself in politics, but never lost his “middle-class Joe” roots is a joke. Joe was never middle class. His family was wealthy until his father squandered the money. It seems no one with the name Biden was particularly bright.

. . ."But since they, Joe has been in “public service,” which is code for government jobs. That gave him power and a level of job security most people never experience. If the people of Delaware were dumb enough to elect him, he was set. 

Joe’s story isn’t compelling or even interesting, so he lies about it. It’s a sign of wild insecurity that he lies about his life the way he does – from academic achievements, which he claims but did not have, to the tragic death of his first wife and daughter, which he blamed for years on a drunk driver but simply is not true. Again, there is something deeply wrong with a man who would not only exploit the death of family members, but would also lie in the process.". . .

. . ." Jill’s first husband is still alive, and in a story that would be front page news were her name Melania Trump, tells how she started having an affair with Joe while they were still married. Since she’s a Biden, the media has little interest.". . .

. . ."When you have a hooker and stripper-banging, crack-smoking son in the family and there’s still a question over which member is the dumbest, you’ve stumbled onto a very “special” group of people. The Biden name is associated with a lot of arrests and abuses, so there isn’t really a winner in the bunch. Yet somehow, miraculously, they’ve managed to become fabulously wealthy with no discernable skills among them, except a willingness to exploit Joe’s position of public trust."

On Biden's Build Back Bitter Bluster   . . ."Beyond this, it should be added that Reagan, and most other presidents, were. usually disciplined enough never to let the media visibly get under his skin. Clinton had a few lapses in this department, but Biden makes Clinton look like a model of chastity by comparison.

"More evidence that he isn’t up to the rigors of the office."...See for yourself:  President Reagan handled his age issue perfectly...   Great humor and Mondale's reaction was classy

Russia-Ukraine tensions need a unified NATO response. But Biden shook the alliance.

NBC News

The president's words will embolden Vladimir Putin to be even more aggressive and accelerate his asymmetric attacks on other neighboring nations.

"Russian President Vladimir Putin won a major victory this past week, and it didn’t require him to move a single soldier or weapon into Ukraine. During a news conference at the White House Wednesday, President Joe Biden made several considerable concessions. These rhetorical retreats would not only damage and further destabilize the government in Kyiv. They also reverberated in capitals across eastern and central Europe, leaving leaders there feeling even more vulnerable to Moscow’s meddling.

What should Biden have said? He needed to channel Winston Churchill: Describe in stark terms the gravity of our present predicament.

"In diplomacy, the messaging really matters. Having served in numerous embassies overseas, I’ve seen how the right message can help secure peace. But the wrong message can lead to conflict. What Biden said about a potential Russian invasion and NATO’s response falls squarely into the latter category. His words will embolden Putin to be even more aggressive and accelerate his asymmetric attacks on other neighboring nations.

"The president recklessly remarked that the price for Russia invading Ukraine “depends on what it does. It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and then we end up having a fight about what to do and not do” — the “we” apparently referring to NATO.". . .

Senator John Kennedy: Americans Are Tired of Democrats Calling Them Racists (VIDEO)

 The Gateway Pundit   "Republican Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana is a gem who has a way with words and a great sense of humor.

"During a recent appearance on FOX News, he called out Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and various other Democrats for constantly accusing other Americans of racism.

"He said that the American people are tired of it, and is he ever right." . . .

. . ."The American people are getting pretty tired of being called a racist or a traitor or Nazi because they don’t agree with the president’s woke neo-socialist agenda. And that is why his poll numbers are on a journey to the center of the Earth, and he needs to stop it."

Readying for a dangerous 2022 election

Apart from Trump, what other president, Democrat or Republican, acted upon closing the southern border?  None.  What other president promised and delivered moving the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem?  None.  And what other president stood up to the one-sided trade practices of China?  None.

 American Thinker   . . ."Such is the case with the election and rejection of President Donald Trump and the subsequent appearance of President Joe Biden. 

"These men didn't just happen.  President Trump was elected on the heels of eight disappointing years of President Barack Obama — a presidency that saw America embarrassed and diminished on the world stage, a sinking economy, and many Americans' dismal outlook of the future. 

"Trump was seen as the antidote to the self-serving establishment.  Always a threat as a true outsider, he became the establishments' kryptonite when he started to fight back, something Republicans had little stomach for. " . . .

. . ."Make no mistake: the establishment or swamp, call it what you want, is well aware of Biden's and Harris's dismal approval ratings.  Their insatiable quest to maintain power, along with the reality of a Republican wave, will most likely cause them to act in imprudent ways dangerous to the Republic.  With this in mind, in the weeks and months to come, all Americans must be extra-vigilant regarding voting rights legislation as well as any proposed changes to the structure of the Supreme Court."
