When President Biden took office in 2021, his administration made it clear it was working with Big Tech to censor political opinions and inconvenient facts they didn't like.
"We're regularly making sure social media platforms are aware of the latest narratives, dangerous to public health that we and many other Americans are seeing across all of social and traditional media. And we work to engage with them to better understand the enforcement of social media platform policies," former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki proudly proclaimed from the lectern. "Facebook needs to move quickly to remove violative posts."
This censorship regime was implemented through the Department of Homeland Security, FBI, Centers for Disease Control and many more federal agencies. Each of them pressuring private companies to subvert the First Amendment protections.
They repeatedly and deliberately violated the constitutional rights of Americans and our journalists. Townhall was one of the news outlets repeatedly flagged as "misinformation" or "harmful content." Our reporters were simply telling the truth and busting government narratives.

After advocating for the censorship of our outlet, the White House is defending the free press rights of Qatari-owned and terrorist-infested Al Jazeera. Qatar is where the leaders of the Iranian-backed terrorist organization Hamas live in luxury.
"A move like this is concerning," Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in response to the Israeli government banning the propaganda outlet from operating inside their country. "We believe in the freedom of the press. It is critical. It is critically important. And the United States supports the critically important work journalists around the world do. And that includes those who are reporting in, in the conflict in Gaza. So, we believe that work is important, the freedom of the press is important."
On October 7, a number of Al Jazeera "journalists" praised Hamas for its ruthless massacre of men, women and children inside their southern Israel homes. Some of them even participated. They cheered as terrorists took girls as hostages, parading their bodies through the streets in the Gaza Strip.
Just last week, Al Jazeera admitted to publishing a completely bogus story — the purpose of which was to stir up anger over fake news.
While the Biden administration praises foreign news outlets whose employees celebrate and participate in terrorism, demanding their free press rights be protected and upheld, they target conservative outlets and journalists at home in the United States.
