I can’t think of a more important time to defend free speech

I can’t think of a more important time to defend free speech. ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏     Friend, I can’t think of a more important time to defend free speech. It’s no coincidence that in the past 3 years we’ve seen some of the greatest abuses of power in American history and some of the most powerful attacks on our First Amendment. As the new Speaker of the House said… “if the alarm bells are not going off, you’re not paying attention.” Big Tech censorship is one of the greatest threats facing our country. If partisan politicians can leverage the force of government to censor political opponents, and get away with it, the First Amendment will be nothing more than a distant memory. That’s why Rogan O’Handley’s case is at the Supreme Court of the United States awaiting the Court’s decision on our certiorari petition… …Because it is totally unconsitutional for Big Government to collude with Big Tech to censor disfavored—or unpopular—beliefs. The Supreme Court could decide our petition any day now, and when it does, our attorneys must be prepared at a moment’s notice. [Will you make a generous, tax-deductible donation of $35 or more today to give our attorneys a running start?]( Recently the Supreme Court agreed to hear Murthy v. Missouri – the landmark case that we filed an amicus brief for earlier this year. Murthy v. Missouri blew the lid off the corruption between the federal government and Big Tech platforms aimed at censoring conservatives. Evidence of the federal government working to censor Americans online shocked many…but probably not to you. You know Rogan O’Handley’s lawsuit well and recall that the state of California pressured Twitter to censor Rogan after Rogan called for an audit of the 2020 election. You remember hearing about how the state of California gave millions of dollars to a partisan public relations firm to root out election related “misinformation” online without ever defining the term “misinformation.” And you saw that outrageous abuse of power result in Rogan O’Handley getting kicked off Twitter. Referring to Big Tech censorship, the new Speaker of the House Mike Johnson said it best:   “The Twitter files should be a matter of bipartisan concern for every member of Congress and every American citizen because it is a bedrock principle of our constitutional system that the government does not get to decide what speech is acceptable or true…Under the First Amendment the American people have a right to speak freely regardless of whether their speech upsets the preferred narrative – in fact, that’s when it needs the most vigorous protection…Government and media “act checkers frequently get things wrong; the American people can’t and shouldn’t rely on the so-called “experts” to be the arbiters of truth.”     Friend, I couldn’t agree more. That’s why I hope I can count on your generous donation today, and if Rogan’s case moves forward, you’ll help us win it. Thank you again for all that you do. Sincerely,   Harmeet K.
