Nearly two years ago, President-elect Donald Trump taped a video outlining his plan to “shatter the left-wing censorship regime” and “reclaim the right to free speech for all Americans.” But ironically, due to Big Tech censorship, many Americans never saw the video—until now.  The video, initially published on Dec. 15, 2022, is making its rounds on X and showing Trump’s commitment to restoring freedom of speech. “If we don’t have free speech, we just don’t have a free country. It’s as simple as that. If this most fundamental right is allowed to perish, then the rest of our rights and liberties will topple just like dominos one by one,” he said. Trump understood this firsthand as nearly every platform had banned or suspended his accounts, including YouTube and Facebook where this video likely would have thrived.  As MRC reported and recorded in our exclusive CensorTrack database, Trump was silenced across nearly every major social media platform following the 2020 election, including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat, Twitch, Shopify and Stripe. YouTube even repeatedly removed interviews with Trump in 2021, before he announced his third presidential run. This ongoing censorship left very few options for him to post online, and he ultimately chose to post his video on Rumble and his own platform Truth Social. Entrepreneur and software engineer Marc Andreessen pointed out that the mass censorship is likely the reason why Trump’s free speech policy agenda is just now going viral. “President Trump was banned from YouTube Jan '21 to March '23. He was therefore forced to post new policy videos to Rumble [s]uch as this one, which went viral today but is from Dec '22,” he wrote in an X post on Saturday. “You didn't see his video about censorship because he was censored.”  Trump’s video responded to the vast censorship regime that had begun to unravel in 2022 after the Media Research Center, X owner Elon Musk and The Twitter Files journalists ripped back the curtain that had previously protected the deep state censorship cartel.  The Department of Homeland Security set the stage for the free speech movement to expose Big Tech government collusion. On Feb. 7, 2022, DHS released a National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin and claimed that one of the “key factors” of a “heightened” terrorism threat included what it called “false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information,” including “regarding unsubstantiated widespread election fraud and COVID-19.”  Two days later, MRC Free Speech America revealed the extent to which Big Tech had already been annihilating content related to one of the DHS’s “terrorism” concerns over the previous two years. Utilizing MRC’s exclusive CensorTrack database, researchers found that Big Tech had censored users’ accounts and posts related to COVID-19 and the COVID-19 vaccines no fewer than 808 times. MRC would go on to expose how Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and Reddit censored Americans who criticized the Biden-Harris administration both during the 2020 campaign and after they took the White House. Big Tech silenced these critics a combined 646 times per CensorTrack.  In May, the DHS also briefly established the now-defunct Disinformation Governance Board (DGB) led by Nina “Mary Poppins” Jankowicz. The move garnered severe backlash from free-speech advocates, including Musk, who at the time was only considering buying Twitter. But the DHS soon paused, and by August terminated, the DGB after MRC exposed that a couple of its members had ties to leftist billionaire George Soros.  MRC also uncovered that Google had buried the websites of Republican senate candidates running in the most contested races of the 2022 midterm elections. In 10 of the 12 races (83%) that MRC researchers examined, the Republican candidates’ campaign websites appeared far lower than those of their Democratic opponents’. In some cases, the Republicans’ websites did not appear at all on the first page of Google’s search results. The search engine similarly buried the websites of 10 Big Tech critics running for Congress. But the search giant did not stop there. On Dec. 12, just three days before Trump released his video outlining his pro-free speech agenda, MRC showed that in a swing precinct, Google favored the campaign website of Raphael Warnock, a Democrat running for the Georgia Senate run-off, to that of Republican candidate Herschel Walker.  That same day independent journalist Bari Weiss released Twitter Files Part Five titled “THE REMOVAL OF TRUMP FROM TWITTER,” which gave insight into the internal conversations and justifications Twitter employees gave for silencing Trump, the then sitting president of the United States. Musk finalized his acquisition of Twitter a month and a half prior to Weiss’s bombshell reporting on Twitter. His purchase of the anti-free speech platform allowed journalists to release over two dozen reports on uncovering Twitter’s scandalous relationship with the U.S. government.  Although Trump made the video in 2022, everything we have learned since then has only clarified the urgent need for an aggressive pro-free speech agenda. MRC, The Twitter Files journalists and the House Judiciary Committee have released dozens of reports exposing Big Tech election interference and its collusion with the government to censor Americans.  Conservatives are under attack. Contact your representatives and demand that Big Tech be held to account to mirror the First Amendment while providing transparency, clarity on “hate speech” and equal footing for conservatives. If you have been censored, contact us using CensorTrack’s contact form, and help us hold Big Tech accountable.

President-elect Donald Trump nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Thursday to serve as Health and Human Services secretary, reiterating his pledge to "Make America Healthy Again." Within hours of the announcement, the Biden-Harris HHS under the current leadership of Xavier Becerra provided the incoming administration with a reminder of the herculean task of reform now set before Kennedy: a propaganda piece on social media signaling support both for medicalized transvestism and the notion that some men and women are "nonbinary." In addition to reminding the public that radical gender ideology informs the current HHS' pseudoscientific stances and activist policies — something Trump intends to remedy — the post set Kennedy's apparent health priorities in greater relief. Rather than waste time, money, and energy indulging the delusions of those suffering from body dysmorphia, Kennedy has signaled he will actually try to improve their health and the health of the nation at large. "We have a generational opportunity to bring together the greatest minds in science, medicine, industry, and government to put an end to the chronic disease epidemic," Kennedy said in his response to Trump's announcement. "I look forward to working with the more than 80,000 employees at HHS to free the agencies from the smothering cloud of corporate capture so they can pursue their mission to make Americans once again the healthiest people on Earth."'I don't think children can genuinely consent to repurposed castration drugs.' Kennedy has offered some hints and specifics in recent months about what he would do if put in a position to take meaningful federal action. Protecting youth from the sex-change regime In May, Kennedy tweeted, "The more I learn, the more troubled I have become about giving puberty blockers to youth. Minors cannot drive, vote, join the army, get a tattoo, smoke, or drink, because we know that children do not fully understand the consequences of decisions with life-long ramifications." The future Trump nominee stressed that the brain's prefrontal cortex, "responsible for skills like planning, prioritizing, and making good decisions, doesn't fully mature until the early to mid-20s." "I don't think children can genuinely consent to repurposed castration drugs (puberty blockers) and surgical mutilation, which have permanent, irreversible effects," said Kennedy. A Kennedy-led HHS would help Trump make good on his vows to revoke the Biden-Harris administration's "cruel policies on so-called 'gender-affirming care'"; cease all programs promoting the concept of gender transition; and cut "any hospital or healthcare provider participating in the chemical or physical mutilation of minor youth" off of Medicaid and Medicare. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is one of the HHS agencies Kennedy would oversee. When threatening federal funding, Kennedy might want to look at the medical advocacy group Do No Harm's new database of hospitals and medical facilities that are apparently subjecting children to sex-change mutilations and sterilizing chemical treatments.Curbing retardation by fluoride The accomplished environmental lawyer, who once gave agro-tech giant Monsanto a figurative black eye in court, signaled that the Trump administration will "advise all U.S. water systems to remove fluoride from the public water" — a proposal that even the Washington Post's health columnist Leana Wen, a professor of health policy at George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health, has admitted is reasonable. According to the National Institutes of Health's Office of Dietary Supplements, fluoridated municipal drinking water accounts for approximately 60% of fluoride intakes in the United States. As of 2020, 62.9% of the population had access to a fluoridated water system. Scientists have long understood that exposure to fluoride at elevated levels has been linked to various adverse health effects in humans, such as osteosclerosis, calcification of tendons, endocrine dysfunction, and bone deformities. The government finally got around to admitting this past summer that fluoride is also retarding the population. The National Toxicology Program, part of the HHS, released a report in August revealing that fluoridated water can significantly lower IQ in kids. "Higher estimated fluoride exposures (e.g., as in approximations of exposure such as drinking water fluoride concentrations that exceed the World Health Organization Guidelines for Drinking-water Quality of 1.5 mg/L of fluoride) are consistently associated with lower IQ in children," said the NTP report. 'FDA's war on public health is about to end.' When still a presidential candidate, Kennedy made the same pledge to remove fluoride from the water, stating he would lean on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, another HHS agency to "take every step necessary to remove neurotoxic fluoride from American drinking water." Cleaning house at the FDA The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is another HHS agency, meaning it would be within Kennedy's purview. Ahead of Election Day, Kennedy noted on X, "FDA's war on public health is about to end. This includes its aggressive suppression of psychedelics, peptides, stem cells, raw milk, hyperbaric therapies, chelating compounds, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamins, clean foods, sunshine, exercise, nutraceuticals and anything else that advances human health and can't be patented by Pharma." "If you work for the FDA and are part of this corrupt system, I have two messages for you: 1. Preserve your records, and 2. Pack your bags," added Kennedy. Kennedy told MSNBC following Trump's landslide victory, "In some categories, there are entire departments, like the nutrition department at the FDA that are — that have to go, that are not doing their job, they're not protecting our kids." Kennedy underscored he would not seek to eliminate entire agencies "as long as it requires congressional approval." Instead, he would "get the corruption out of the agencies." Trump said in his announcement Thursday that the HHS would also "ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, and food additives that have contributed to the overwhelming Health Crisis in this Country."With oversight of the FDA, Kennedy might be able to spare Americans from exposure or at the very least relatively high exposure to problematic chemicals such as chlormequat and Bisphenol A.The Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology published a study from the Environmental Working Group earlier this year revealing that the vast majority of Americans have been exposed to the pesticide chlormequat, which is detectable in dozens of popular oat-based products and has been linked in animal studies to disrupted fetal growth, damage to the reproductive system, delayed puberty, and reduced fertility.'The science on vaccine safety particularly has huge deficits.'Blaze News previously reported that BPA, which studies have linked to infertility, obesity, cancer, poor fetal development, early onset puberty, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and other ailments, is used in numerous rigid plastic consumer products. While the current FDA claims the chemical is safe at "current levels occurring in foods," a European health agency recently sounded the alarm, revealing that exposure is too high and that contrary to the suggestion of the FDA, BPA does pose a danger.Kennedy has expressed an interest in banning various chemicals, including the food dye tartrazine, stressing the need to "stop the mass poisoning of American children." Proper vaccine research Kennedy told NPR in a recent interview that he would act swiftly on support for vaccine research. "I will work immediately on that. That will be one of my priorities," said Kennedy. Kennedy and Dr. Brian Hooker released a book last year, titled "Vax-Unvax: Let the Science Speak," which examined the scientific literature highlighting health differences between vaccinated and unvaccinated populations. In the book, Kennedy reportedly states, "There is virtually no science assessing the overall health effects of the vaccination schedule or its component vaccines." "This means it can’t know whether these vaccines actually cause harm and certainly can’t honestly say that they don’t," the book adds. "We're not going to take vaccines away from anybody. We are going to make sure that Americans have good information right now. The science on vaccine safety particularly has huge deficits, and we're going to make sure those scientific studies are done and that people can make informed choices about their vaccinations and their children's vaccinations." The Washington Post suggested with apparent unease that Kennedy could influence the vaccine approval and recommendation process by directing less passive and deferential individuals onto advisory committees at the FDA and CDC. Unsurprisingly, shares of major vaccine makers, such as Pfizer and Moderna, took a nosedive following news of Kennedy's appointment.Like Blaze News?

The vicious Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua has infiltrated every major city in Tennessee, according to state officials.TDA has been tied to criminal activity across the United States, including apartment takeovers in Aurora, Colorado, and violent crimes in New York City and Dallas, Texas. Thus far, the gang has primarily, but not exclusively, focused on expanding its presence in sanctuary jurisdictions, where local law enforcement agencies are forbidden to cooperate with federal immigration officials. 'They will not hesitate to attack their opponents in public and in broad daylight.'During a budget meeting this week, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation director David Rausch warned Governor Bill Lee (R) that TDA has recently become a growing threat in the state. According to Rausch, the gang started to appear in Tennessee two years ago, but its influence has substantially expanded over the past few months. He noted that TDA is active in Memphis and Nashville. "We first saw them a couple years ago where we uncovered a group here in a human trafficking operation," Rausch explained. "We recognized a number of the members here trafficking females that they had abducted from Venezuela and brought them here."The bureau successfully captured several individuals involved in the illicit operation, but "many of them fled" out of Tennessee, Rausch said."Now what we are seeing is they are back. They are back in all of our major cities," he declared.When TDA arrives in a new area, it starts by running trafficking operations, then expands into other criminal activities, including organized retail theft and drug trafficking, Rausch told Lee. He expressed concerns about TDA's brazenness and its targeting of cartel members. "They will, and they have taken on the cartel head-on, and they're very violent in their efforts," Rausch continued. "They will not hesitate to attack their opponents in public and in broad daylight.""Recently, there was a video that they shot where they shot an individual, a cartel member, 31 times. Broad daylight, on video, and posted it to social media," he stated.Rausch did not share how many TDA gang members he believes are in the state but noted that "they're in numbers here."According to Straight Arrow News, the Knoxville Police Department is unaware of any TDA activity in the area. The Department of Homeland Security has reportedly identified more than 600 individuals in the U.S. with ties to TDA, Blaze News previously reported. The federal government has confirmed the gang's activity in at least 15 states, and it may have expanded to another eight.Like Blaze News?
