The censorship industrial complex is a growth industry to the US government, says Matt Gaetz and Twitter file journalists Matt Taibbi and Michael Shellenberger.

Yesterday, journalist Matt Taibbi released a Twitter thread that was just devastating.  The Obama Deep State has created a Censorship-Industrial Complex.

10. We came to think of this grouping – state agencies like DHS, FBI, or the Global Engagement Center (GEC), along with “NGOs that aren’t academic” and an unexpectedly aggressive partner, commercial news media – as the Censorship-Industrial Complex.

In the same thread, Taibbi shared that Non-Government Organizations (NGOs), like the GEC or the Department of Defense funded Newsgard, the fake fact-checker which has spent years harassing The Gateway Pundit, are part of an effort to shut down conservative media.  They do this by publishing fake and false fact-checks and then using these to attack the honest media and share with their advertisers to reduce their income.

25. Some NGOs, like the GEC-funded Global Disinformation Index or the DOD-funded Newsguard, not only seek content moderation but apply subjective “risk” or “reliability” scores to media outlets, which can result in reduction in revenue.

US Rep. Matt Gaetz did a superb job of laying this out in his 5-minute rebuttal in the House yesterday.

The nexus to authoritarianism is the desire to control the nature of truth itself.

That is the true goal of the Censorship Industrial Complex. #TwitterFiles @Weaponization pic.twitter.com/GvD7oywvTL

Gaetz summarized a part of this with the following tweet that included only a small section of his presentation.

.@RepMattGaetz: “What you’re describing…is…the directing of revenue to certain media companies over other media companies designed…with U.S. government funding and support.”

SHELLENBERGER: “That’s right.”

GAETZ: That is…astonishing!” pic.twitter.com/b7NkdqSdBY

The Obama goons hate America and Americans.  They want to change this Godly and blessed nation by destroying the Constitution and the people of America.  Their biggest acts are ending the First Amendment and destroying free and fair elections.

Joe Biden on Friday took off for another weekend vacation in Delaware.

Biden has spent over 40% of his presidency – 309 days – on vacation without visitor logs.

This is Biden’s 67th trip to Delaware since being sworn into office in January 2021.

There are no visitor logs at Biden’s Delaware compound so the American people have no idea who Biden is meeting with off-the-record.

We have no idea who is visiting Joe Biden every weekend in Delaware.

When asked who is coming and going to Biden’s Delaware home, the White House said it’s none of our business.

According to a recent analysis by Fox News, Biden’s frequent Delaware vacations have cost taxpayers at least $11 million.

Marine One costs approximately $20,000 per hour and Air Force One costs $177,843 per hour, according to Department of Defense documents.

Fox News reported that Joe Biden has taken over 100 flights between Delaware and DC since he was installed in January 2021.
