We have to shield democracy from disinformation, says @vonderleyen. In truth, her Orwellian "Democracy Shield" is about shielding the European Commission from democracy. And now, reveals @Pauline__Voss, the EU is financing "news" propaganda outfits to demand more censorship.

The media say Trump lied when he told Joe Rogan that industrial wind turbines are killing whales, but he didn't. In fact, it's worse than Trump said. If the wind industry continues with its boats, noise, and vibrations, it will make the North Atlantic right whale extinct.

The man behind the digital ID push is Larry Ellison, owner of Oracle, CBS, CNN, and, soon, TikTok. He wants data centralization and total surveillance. "Citizens will be on their best behavior because we're constantly watching & recording everything that's going on." Terrifying.

And after the government combines your personal, banking, and voting data under a single digital ID, it will add social media and vaccine information. Same with Real ID in the US. The Censorship Industrial Complex was dress rehearsal for digital ID.

Over the next few weeks you’re going to hear Governor Gavin Newsom, Mayor Karen Bass, and the Democratic Party tell you that there’s nothing that could have been done to prevent the fires from destroying Los Angeles. Those will be lies. They could have prevented them. Governor

I’m afraid I have some terrible news. The governor of America’s largest and richest state has just signed a law that puts 10 million children and adolescents in grave danger of medical mistreatment. The media headlines have it wrong. They claim that California Governor Gavin

Many Democrats say they want to understand what happened. Few genuinely do. That's because, at some level, they know they're guilty of having participated in a witch hunt in which they falsely accused their fellow Americans, and even their friends & family, of fascism & racism.

Tulsi Gabbard is a threat to national security, say Senators close to the Intelligence Community. She's not. She's a threat to the most corrupt people in the Intel Community. We must defend Gabbard's nomination as though our freedom depends on it, because it does.

In his new letter, Zuckerberg goes beyond what he told Rogan. He says FBI specifically warned of disinfo re: Hunter Biden & his client, Burisma, the Ukrainian nat gas company. It's hard proof that the FBI illegally interfered in the elections. Someone should go to prison for it.
