Biden administration’s coercion of Big Tech threatens online freedom of speech.

by

Today, let’s shine a light on a story that flew under the radar for many Americans in 2023 but holds significant implications for our freedom of speech online.

Picture this: a federal district court judge, backed by a unanimous appellate panel, made a ruling that sent shockwaves through the digital world. They found that the Biden administration, along with the FBI, had coerced Big Tech into censoring dissenting voices online – a serious blow to our First Amendment rights.

But here’s the kicker: despite the gravity of this ruling, it received minimal coverage from mainstream media outlets. Instead, they dismissed it as a “nothing burger,” urging the public to look the other way.

Fast forward to March 12, 2024, and we’re faced with even more damning revelations. Testimony from DOJ Special Counsel Robert K. Hur suggests that classified documents were disclosed by Biden in exchange for millions of dollars. And to make matters worse, evidence was allegedly destroyed upon learning of a Special Counsel investigation.

In the midst of these revelations, questions linger about the administration’s relationship with social media companies and their role in censoring misinformation online.

So, why does this matter? Well, as Representative Thomas Massie aptly puts it, every inch of authority granted to restrict civil liberties can lead to a mile of abuse. It’s a sobering reminder of the importance of vigilance in protecting our fundamental rights.
