Censorship on Steroids = Jan 6

From Gary Bauer, End of Day Report, 18 July 2023

CIA Censors

Journalist Glenn Greenwald is no conservative. He’s a staunch liberal, who cares deeply about civil liberties. He is also deeply concerned about Big Government working with Big Tech to censor the American people.

Greenwald recently reported that major tech companies, like Google and Facebook, have hired hundreds of former agents and officials from the CIA, FBI, NSA and other government intelligence and security agencies.

For example, at Google there are 27 former CIA agents, 52 former FBI agents, 30 former National Security Agency (NSA) officials, and 50 former officials from the Department of Homeland Security.

Facebook has hired 17 former CIA agents, 37 former FBI agents, 23 former NSA agents and 38 former officials from the Department of Homeland Security.

And if they’re all like this “intersectional, cisgender millennial,” then it’s no wonder why these Big Tech giants are so left-wing. One of the agents who leads Google’s “trust and safety team” mocked those skeptical of the COVID vaccines as “fascists” and “confederates.”

All this Deep State “infiltration” of Big Tech accelerated after the 2016 election, when Big Tech vowed it would take steps to prevent Trump’s reelection.

On its face, this is deeply disturbing and should raise serious questions. I would not be surprised if we discovered that some of these former CIA, former FBI and former NSA agents are in fact still working for their respective agencies; that they are not “former” anything, but Deep State plants.

We know the FBI groomed social media companies into believing that reports about Hunter Biden’s laptop were “Russian disinformation.” It lied to keep the truth from the American people!

I also recall certain members of Congress attempting to question FBI Director Christopher Wray about how the FBI got information from social media companies and whether FBI personnel were working at social media companies. His responses were vague, evasive and totally unconvincing.

The CIA is not supposed to be involved in anything that approaches domestic politics. But the Deep State’s meddling in domestic politics is hardly unprecedented.

Forty years ago, the Church Committee exposed a clandestine CIA project called “Operation Mockingbird,” where the CIA was manipulating the American media. It was a huge scandal.

What Glenn Greenwald has exposed appears to be everything that happened then, only now it’s on steroids given the power of Big Tech oligarchs over social media.

What is happening here is clear. It’s unacceptable. And it’s a threat to our democratic process.

Greenwald concluded his report by warning that a “closed information system is a hallmark of totalitarianism.” That’s exactly what the American media today, under the control of intolerant leftists and under the influence of Deep State activists, has become.

The Real Cause

As you know, several Republican candidates recently sat down for interviews with Tucker Carlson at the Iowa Family Leader Summit. When asked about the events of January 6th, Vivek Ramaswamy offered an explanation that really resonated with many Americans. Here’s what he said:

“I haven’t talked about [January 6] much on the campaign. I’m going to be very honest with you. . . You want to know what caused January 6? Pervasive censorship in this country in the lead-up to January 6.

“You tell people in this country they cannot speak, that is when they scream. You tell people in this country they cannot scream, that is when they tear things down.

“The reality is we were told you could not question where the virus came from when we all know it came from a lab in Wuhan, which now they admit.

“We were told you could not send a private message to someone on the eve of an election that Hunter Biden’s laptop story was actually a true story. . . You were systematically suppressed.

“Think about this, you’re told you have to be locked down, had to take a vaccine that was mandated and forced down your throat, stay locked down in your home while Antifa and BLM roam and burn the streets of this country.

“That is the leadup of one full year in this country telling people to shut up, sit down, and do what you’re told. And then you tell them, ‘Okay, there’s an election where you didn’t get the information you needed, such as the Hunter Biden laptop story being real and suppressed,’ that’s what caused January 6. A cycle of censorship in this country.

“Until we look ourselves in the mirror and admit the truth on that, we won’t move forward as a country. And I think that is the real cause.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

More and more, we are learning how much the DOJ, FBI, and the Capital Police were complicit in the Jan 6 “riot” and the reports are still coming.  This country is fast hurtling toward a socialist / totalitarion regime which we may be unable to stop, and from which we will never recover should it continue.

Time and again we have been warned of this, yet most Americans ignore the warning, either from denial or delusion or both, but rest assured, it IS happening.

The only hope for America is to repent and return to God and the Biblical precepts that are written into our Constitution (regardless of what is currently being taught in our schools).  George Washington said “Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.”

More recently, Ronald Reagan said “If we ever forget that we are one nation under God, then we’ll be a nation gone under.”
