It’s not just your imagination. It’s not an urban legend or a conspiracy theory or a $#!+post. The government really is trying to shut you up.

Ken Klippenstein and Lee Fang, The Intercept:

The Department of Homeland Security is quietly broadening its efforts to curb speech it considers dangerous, an investigation by The Intercept has found. Years of internal DHS memos, emails, and documents — obtained via leaks and an ongoing lawsuit, as well as public documents — illustrate an expansive effort by the agency to influence tech platforms…

Prior to the 2020 election, tech companies including Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, Discord, Wikipedia, Microsoft, LinkedIn, and Verizon Media met on a monthly basis with the FBI, CISA, and other government representatives.

Read the whole thing. They’re treating Americans like terrorists for dissenting, and they’ve enlisted social media platforms to enforce their censorship.

I know a little bit about the federal government’s respect for the truth. Not to get into the whole thing yet again, but you can read about it here. I’m still dealing with the effects of the feds’ irresponsibility, and I still resent their lies. So they can take their “counter-disinformation” and cram it.

Are those days over at Twitter? The libs seem to think so, and they don’t like it one bit:

SCOOP w/ @KurtWagner8 @jackiedavalos1 @EdLudlow: Twitter has frozen most T&S employees' access to internal tools used for content moderation and other policy enforcement, curbing the staff’s ability to clamp down on misinformation ahead of a major US election. Live @TheTerminal
