September 18 is the deadline for the DOJ and FBI to provide all subpoenaed documentation regarding their participation in their efforts to suppress conservative free speech—labeled “misinformation” or “disinformation” by those government officials—per the House Judiciary Committee.
In August of 2022, the States of Missouri and Louisiana sued President Joe Biden and other federal officials for conspiring with big tech companies to deprive the politically disfavored of their First Amendment rights to freedom of speech. This type of illegal behavior has gone unchecked to such an extent that pro-abortion extremist politicians boldly use their official position to publicly demand big tech like Google to censor pro-life pregnancy centers under the same mantra of misinformation. Responding to the attack on the First Amendment rights of pregnancy centers, 17 state Attorneys General signed an open letter to Google stating in part, “Complying with these demands would constitute a grave assault on the principle of free speech.”
Joining us now to discuss this further is Jim Harden, CEO of CompassCare. Rev. Harden has been sounding the alarm on corruption within the FBI and the targeting of pro-life people since 2022 when the CompassCare medical office in Buffalo was firebombed—still no arrests.
Q&A:
- The House Judiciary Committee gave the DOJ and FBI until September 18, 2023, to provide information on their alleged participation in efforts to suppress free speech. Can you tell us more about these efforts?
Answer: In August of 2022, the States of Missouri and Louisiana sued President Joe Biden and other federal officials for conspiring with big tech companies to deprive the politically disfavored of their First Amendment rights to freedom of speech. While much of the free speech suppression had to do with the Hunter Biden laptop, COVID-19, and vaccination data, this type of illegal behavior includes pro-abortion extremist politicians boldly using their official position to publicly demand big tech like Google to censor pro-life pregnancy centers under the same mantra of “misinformation.”
- How have left-leaning politicians targeted pro-life medical centers in the past 18 months through attacks on the First Amendment?
Answer: Pro-abortion politicians have been publicly colluding with Google to censor politically disfavored pro-life pregnancy centers. Open letters to Google from 22 Federal legislators and New York Attorney General Letitia James in late June of 2022 demanded Google disallow pro-life pregnancy centers from advertising or from being found on Google Maps.
- In direct response to this type of collusion between government and big-tech, 17 State Attorney General signed a letter warning Google not to comply. What can you tell us about this letter?
Answer: The 17 AGs said in their letter, “Complying with these demands would constitute a grave assault on the principle of free speech.” The AGs went on to warn, “Because of the fundamental American values at stake here, if you comply with this inappropriate demand to bias your search results against crisis pregnancy centers, our offices will conduct thorough investigations…”
- What was Google’s response to the 17 AGs?
Answer: Google ignored the AG’s letter, instead complying with the censorship demands of pro-abortion politicians who celebrated Google’s compliance on August 25. Google now automatically filters all pro-life pregnancy centers from Google Maps when searches are performed for information or services related to abortion and unplanned pregnancy. Warning labels are also added to pro-life pregnancy center ads and other content.
- How is the lawsuit being levied against the Biden Administration by the Missouri and Louisiana AGs impacting the situation?
Answer: According to the recent lawsuit, this type of collusion between government actors and big tech violates anti-trust laws and section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. That is, the government “subsidized, fostered, encouraged, and empowered the creation of a small number of massive social-media companies with disproportionate ability to censor and suppress speech…such inducements [including the absence of antitrust enforcement] constitute an immensely valuable benefit to [such platforms] and incentive to do the bidding of federal officials.”
- The House Judiciary Committee and at least two State Attorneys General seem to be actively pursuing justice. Do you have any comment for them?
Answer: It is our hope that these AGs as well as Rep. Jim Jordan and the House Judiciary Committee will hold political operatives, their appointees like Garland and Wray, and companies like Google accountable. Reckless anti-trust abuses by colluding and coordinating with each other to deprive pro-life people of freedom of speech in the new technological public square undermines the Constitutional rule of law.
