Roger Kimball, Poetic Justice for the Biden ‘Ministry of Truth’

James Fetzerblog

By Roger Kimball At some point in this column, I have probably had occasion to quote these famous lines from Walter Scott’s poem “Marmion”: “Oh, what a tangled web we weave When first we practice to deceive.”  In another, better world, I like to think, the Bidens and their protectors and puppet masters would ruefully be contemplating Scott’s admonitory observation. In this world, however, I suspect that—until quite recently, anyway—they had smugly sided with J.R. Pope’s sly amendment to Scott’s moralizing couplet: “But when we’ve practiced for a while  How vastly we…

Citing ‘Orwellian’ Tactics, Federal Judge Orders White House to Stop Censoring Americans’ Social Media Posts

James Fetzerblog

By Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D. In his 155-page ruling, Judge Terry Doughty said there is “substantial evidence” the government violated the First Amendment by engaging in a large-scale censorship campaign targeting content that questioned or countered establishment narratives on COVID-19. In a landmark ruling Tuesday, a federal judge temporarily barred several Biden administration officials and federal agencies from communicating with social media platforms. In his 155-page ruling, Judge Terry Doughty of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana Monroe Division said there is “substantial evidence” the government violated the…

Sundance, The Parliamentary Motive Behind the J6 Fedsurrection

James Fetzerblog

Sundance The Ring of Truth – “I am too well accustomed to the taking of evidence not to detect the ring of truth.” 1908, Edith Wharton Much has been made of the events of January 6, 2021, and with the latest broadcast of CCTV video from inside the Capitol Hill complex, more questions have been raised. Within the questions: the FBI and government apparatus had advanced knowledge of the scale of the J6 mall assembly yet doing nothing?  Why were the Capitol Hill police never informed of the FBI concerns?  Why didn’t…

Sundance, Elon Musk Perplexed as Twitter Begins Widespread Suspensions of Accounts Critical of U.S. Funding for Ukraine and Zelenskyy Grift

James Fetzerblog

Sundance  The basic premise of Jack’s Magic Coffee Shop was to use Twitter as a platform built upon a mission to control and influence public opinion. As a result of the evolution, the growth of the public-private partnership, content moderation flows through DHS.  If the system operators allowed you to see that your opinions were not in the minority, it would be a risk for those in power. The foundation of the mission would be compromised. It really is that simple. Against the backdrop of Twitter triggering suspensions and content removal for…

Paul Craig Roberts, The Suppression of Free Speech Has Close to Majority Support in America

James Fetzerblog

Paul Craig Roberts Almost every minute of every day I see overwhelming evidence of America’s collapse as a free country.  Elon Musk conducted a poll on whether Twitter should allow President Trump to use the social media platform. Fifteen million people responded.  51.8% of the respondents said “yes,” but almost an equal number 48.2% said “no.”  In other words, almost half of the 15 million social media users who responded to the poll oppose free speech for a former president of the United States. No doubt, being as indoctrinated as they are,…

VT Editors, Fetzer and the Zio-Juggernaut from Sandy Hook

James Fetzerblog

By VT Editors VT: Our good friend Jim Fetzer has been sewn up in court for years now over his book on Sandy Hook.  For anyone but Fetzer, errors, real or imagined, in his book are certainly “absent malice,” a typical affirmative defense in defamation cases like this. What our own investigation showed, an extensive investigation, is that those who staged Sandy Hook, and we don’t know if the kids were real or not…in fact nothing about Sandy Hook can be said at all with any degree of certainty…fed the…

BOOM, Trudeau Reversal Motive Surfaces – Canadian Banking Association Was Approved by World Economic Forum To Lead the Digital ID Creation

James Fetzerblog

Sundance  Sunlight is the best disinfectant.  A promotional video from the Canadian Bankers Association (CBA) helps to neatly connect all the dots about why the Canadian government made such a quick reversal in their bank asset seizures in the last 24 hours {Go Deep}.  And yes, as we suspected, it was almost certainly contact from the World Economic Forum to Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland that triggered the change in position. When Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland announced they would use the Emergency Act declaration…

Defending the 1st and 2nd Amendments

James Fetzerblog

Jim Fetzer My Petition for Review by the Wisconsin Supreme Court has been denied without a word of explanation. Here’s a short version of what happened, which is about as outrageous as it gets. Yet the highest WI court has passed on it, unwilling to clean up the mess of the Circuit and Appellate Courts in the state: Under these circumstances, I have no alternative but to proceed to the United States Supreme Court in the hope that, by some minor miracle, it will actually carry out its responsibilities under…

Jon Rappoport, Spotify must remove all liberals from its platform; the obvious solution to the Joe Rogan blow-up

James Fetzerblog

by Jon Rappoport I keep solving these thorny problems. I really should get paid for the work. In this case, I need to define “liberal.” It’s anyone who wants to censor free speech. Simple. Spotify needs to issue a statement to its contracted contributors: “You have 48 hours to tell us whether you favor censoring free speech. If you do favor that policy, we’re cutting you loose. You’re a menace. If you claim you stand for free speech, but later prove, by word or action, that you’re lying, we’ll cut you loose and find some ground…

Kurt Nimmo, Sandy Hook and The Murder of the First Amendment

James Fetzerblog

Kurt Nimmo [Editor’s note: Kurt certainly has the right idea, especially as the mainstream media has reported it. I posted the below comment on this article.l Let me begin by saying I have no idea what happened at Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14, 2012. However, since 9/11, I have questioned the veracity of many news reports and claims issued by officialdom about terrorism and mass shootings. [See 33 unanswered questions about Sandy Hook here – Ed.] The government and its media have been caught hundreds of times lying about or…
