Transforming lives with Good News in the Nation’s Capital
Feb 12, 2021
Big Tech is increasingly emboldened. This week, YouTube removed every single video published on the channel for LifeSite News, a conservative Catholic news outlet. That news outlet has built a reputation for honest, in-depth reporting, and covering stories that the fake news won’t touch.
YouTube gave no warning and no excuse. Big Tech isn’t even trying to hide their censorship of conservatives behind lies anymore. It just erased tens of thousands of hours of video and deleted LifeSite News’ 300,000 followers.
“We are in a war waged by left-wing liberals seeking to annihilate all conservative voices,” LifeSite News said on their blog. Will you help them fight and win this war?
And that’s not all - Project Veritas has now been removed from Twitter.

These Big Tech corporations have launched a Marxist/Communistic form of censorship in America. They are conditioning Americans to only speak what is approved … or risk being punished and permanently silenced.
In a chilling statement, Jim Hale of LifeSite News said the following: “We had already started self-censoring, just like oppressed people in the Soviet Union had to do. YouTube is part of the police state we live in, and nothing more than a state-run propaganda tool, because like every totalitarian dictatorship, they fear their people the most and they don’t want their people to know that they are lying to them.”
Much like a communist government, Twitter already had launched its own official stories or “fact-checkers” to counter any articles that disagreed with the company’s ideology. If you tried to share a post outside of what Twitter wants you to share, first they warned you in a popup box, then they tried to distract you with their own version of “facts.”
Project Veritas has also been removed from Twitter. Facebook is removing anything about HCQ, Ivermectin, or anything that questions the COVID injection.
A free country requires freedom of speech. Imagine if your cellular provider censored your speech or discontinued your service because the company disagrees with whom you voted for or your lawful communications? Yet, that is exactly what Big Tech is doing to Americans.
Recently Twitter censored the account of Focus on the Family because its story referred to Biden’s pick for Assistant Secretary of HHS as “born a biological male.”
As long as a person’s or organization’s speech is lawful, they have the right to their opinions and viewpoints.
World leaders have criticized Twitter’s actions. Both Mexico President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and even the pro-One-World-Government Chancellor of Germany, denounced Twitter’s actions. Chancellor Angela Merkel’s spokesperson said "The right to freedom of opinion is of fundamental importance … Given that, the chancellor considers it problematic that the president's accounts have been permanently suspended.”
Our state and national leaders care more about what you think than what foreign leaders say. Make your voice heard with an urgent fax that Big Tech cannot censor. Send your fax to Republican state governors and national leaders to demand they act to protect the speech and freedom of people within their states.
While Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Google are private companies, so are radio, TV, cable, and phone companies. AT&T was broken up because of its monopoly. These providers cannot refuse you access to these communication channels because they don’t agree with your viewpoint.
Federal and state laws must protect Americans in this age of new channels of information. This censorship will backfire. Dozens of state attorneys general have now filed antitrust lawsuits against Facebook and Google.
About 99.4% of all phones are controlled by either Apple or Google. When those two CEOs decide you shouldn’t have something on your phone, both you and the app provider are powerless to object.
We need key state governors and attorneys general to stand and protect law-abiding people and businesses. Send your urgent fax to Republican state leaders to urge them to act now.
We are working with a coalition of state and private organizations to STOP this CENSORSHIP to protect your speech, privacy, and data. The freedom to communicate your viewpoint is essential to the survival of the Republic.
We appreciate your partnership with us. Your gift to Faith & Liberty will be effectively DOUBLED by our extended Challenge Grant.
Take courage. Remember, when Peter kept his eyes on our Lord, he was able to do the impossible—even walk on water. Keep your eyes on the Lord and not on our current surroundings. Stay in prayer and stay engaged. Also, please forward this message to like-minded friends to help us fight for freedom.
Onward,
Peggy Nienaber, Vice-President
Mat Staver, Chairman
Rev. Gregory Cox, Lead Missionary
