The Censorship Complex: How Tax Dollars Targeted Conservative Voices

from John Solomon Reports

John Solomon and Michael Chamberlain discuss the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) and its funding of the Global Disinformation Index (GDI) to suppress conservative voices and Trump's message. The grant, which started in July 2020 and was supposed to end in September 2022, was canceled due to publicity. GDI's reports boasted of diverting $100 million in ad revenue from conservative sites on their dynamic exclusion list. The work, initially framed as academic research, was actually about demonetizing and de-amplifying dissenting voices. The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) documents revealed GDI's impact on American politics and media. Later, esteemed legal expert Dr. John Eastman analyzes the implications of the recent Supreme Court decisions, particularly those affecting President Trump's immigration policies and the contentious issue of birthright citizenship. Dr. Eastman shares his insights on the evolving dynamics within the judiciary and the potential constitutional crises looming on the horizon. Finally, Shannon Davis, CEO of American Alternative Assets, discusses the economy and how precious metals can help you plan for your financial future.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
