The ever growing establishment calls for censorship are a sure sign of weakness and not of strength.

GG never disappoints. This is a serious problem and correctly dubbed 'fascism', yet the people who just spent four years as #THERESISTANCE could never fathom that they could run afoul of the censorship machine.

Hope things are well in your personal life, and thanks for the important article highlighting this problem!!!

U. S. citizens ought not only be protected from government infringement of speech --- they need to be protected from corporations clearly working in CONJUNCTION with governmental entities [e. g., C.I.A., Justice Department, etc., etc.]. The long list of speakers Glenn identified who've been "banished from the financial system" should have cognizable civil rights actions. In fact, all the protections from government overreach afforded to citizens under the U. S. Constitution ought to apply to corporate overreach conducted on behalf or at the direction of government agencies. It's time to force the courts to deal with the fact a half dozen powerful corporations are aiding the present regime by (1) taking property without hearing or notice, (2) interfering with the free flow of commerce among the states and (3) severely chilling the right to petition the government for grievances [by financially destroying those with whom the regime disagrees].

These aren't random acts by separate and independent corporations --- they're part of a coordinated quasi-governmental attack on the fundamental rights of Americans. It's time we started seeing & treating them that way.

This is a monumental effort. You are undoubtedly making some very deep personal sacrifices for this effort, and just my simple thank you is nowhere near enough, but maybe a million others just like me might help keep you going. Please tell us wish we can do to support you (in addition to subscribing and watching.)

Now if we can just build a usable financial infrastructure to help keep money flowing...

A Government that violates its Constitution in this way has no legitimacy. It must be abolished. I much prefer to do so peacefully. If this instead requires violent insurrection and rebellion then so be it. Here's what a former US president had to say about this topic:

“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable." - JFK

There was a good reason the Founding Father’s created the First Amendment as first and foremost. Without it, there is no Freedom, no Liberty. You’re right over the target Glenn. Godspeed and thank you for being a truly principled journalist for all.

The financial censorship issue demonstrates the need for a store of value that is outside government control. I have no idea whether that would be Bitcoin, or something else entirely, but the need is there.

I have been missing your clear thinking and logic, Glenn. I hope things are resolving in your personal life with your beloved husband's health. Thinking of you and hoping, praying, for the best.

This is an incredibly important article. The Democrat Party has been engaged with Big Tech and the Media in Disinformation and Misinformation designed to sway elections and drive dissent out of public view. As a lifelong peace activist and far left liberal, I have been a GREEN PARTY member since Bill Clinton passed the Crime Bill, Welfare Act, Credit Card Bill and repealed Glass-Steagle. I am still doggedly anti-war and am shocked to see the LEFT pushing war propaganda and censoring, blacklisting and persecuting those who dissent against the Pentagon's proxy war to destabilize Putin. Covid Policy, the Riots, J6, and many other issues have been wildly misreported to favor the centrist corporatist warmongering Democrats. And that's really bad for the country. Now we see that PARENT were finally pushed too far by school closures, calling kids racists, and promoting trans surgery and puberty blockers for children. PARENTS will be ground zero in a seismic explosion at the polls in less than two weeks. You can't mess with parents. Guess what, WE VOTE!
