Few things matter more than equal justice under the law, civilian control over law enforcement, and the separation of powers. We should thus be appalled by the FBI Director's refusal to turn over alleged evidence of Biden corruption.

The FBI says, "The escalation to a contempt vote under these circumstances is unwarranted" bc it showed the document to members of Congress. But by sitting on Hunter Biden's laptop since Dec. '19, and retaliating against whistleblowers, the FBI has proven it can't be trusted.

The American people don't trust the FBI, and rightly so. They were sitting on Hunter Biden's laptop since December 2019 while "former" FBI and CIA officials spread a conspiracy theory in the media that it was Russian disinfo.

The FBI has been purging whistleblowers who raise red flags about unconstitutional behavior:

The FBI has been falsely suggesting that "domestic terrorism" is increasing for obviously partisan political reasons.

Biden and the FBI are abusing their power. Congress must bring FBI to heel.

Half of Americans distrust the FBI. That’s bad.

San Francisco’s tourism board launched a $6M ad campaign to overcome the city’s global reputation as a drug and crime-ridden hell hole. Six days later, the owner of two of the city’s biggest hotels announced it was abandoning them because it lost faith that the city can recover.

“After much thought and consideration, we believe it is in the best interest for Park’s stockholders to materially reduce our current exposure to the San Francisco market… a path to recovery remains clouded and elongated by major challenges, old and new”

Crazy idea for Mayor @LondonBreed & Gov. @GavinNewsom

Why not follow through on your promise to deploy National Guard and CHP rather than spending millions of taxpayer dollars to insist everything is fine?

I've disagreed with @RobertKennedyJr in the past on various issues, but he is currently making a powerful and moving case for the First Amendment. Very inspiring. I encourage everyone to listen in.

Kennedy says the government agencies supposed to be "our protectors" have turned into "our predators."

He condemns elites for "cloaking things in fear and deception."

Kennedy laments that many liberals have gone from being radical free speech defenders to demanding censorship.

Journalists are supposed to "speak truth to power" but have become "propagandists" for government and big corporations.

He condemns that the news media have been captured by big corporations including pharmaceutical companies.

No movement for human freedom has ever demanded censorship. Equal rights for religious, racial, and sexual minorities were won with more free speech not less. Those who demand censorship in the name of reducing harm are the persecutors not protectors of the vulnerable.

https://twitter.com/andrewdoyle_com/status/1665452676543397888

The good news is that a very large majority of human beings in the US, UK, Europe, Brazil, and around the world would rather be able to express themselves freely than have their rulers decide what they can say and hear, read, and write.

But we must assert our rights as free citizens who believe free speech is a basic human right and perhaps the most basic human right since fighting for equal justice and treatment are simply not possible so long as the powerful people at the moment can silence you.
