This article is based on speech by Whitney Webb to the First Annual Children’s Health Defense Conference on October 2022. Introduction and Background For years, the censorship of factual information that is inconvenient to certain powerful actors, including the U.S. Federal Government and Big Pharma, has been steadily increasing as “information warfare” has become an…
Journalism in Crisis: The War on Dissent
Changing of the Guard: Can Musk Deliver on His Promises for Free Speech and Information?
Commentary Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter and his immediate firing of top brass represents a potential weakening of the Big Digital woke cartel that controls information, censers content, censures and bans users, and serves as a propaganda arm of leftist totalitarian statists. Given their cooperation with and promotion of leftist statism, it is more than evident that…
Remember Those Who Cannot Speak
Commentary Being on the administrative/editorial side of Brownstone has been a serious education in information systems. I don’t mean on a technical level. I mean on a social level. I had no idea just how many people there are who simply are not in a position to speak their minds. It’s strange because the whole…
The Blowback Is Finally Here
Commentary Bastille Day celebrates the 1789 storming of the famous French political prison where the inmates could never appeal their sentences imposed by royal decree. The event is mostly symbolic since there were only seven people in the facility and none of any real significance. But the point is there: such institutions are unjust and…
The Rise of the Biomedical Security State
This essay is adapted from the forthcoming book, “The New Abnormal: The Rise of the Biomedical Security State” (Regnery Publishing, Nov. 1). “History doesn’t repeat itself,” said Mark Twain, “but it often rhymes.” This is among the reasons we look to the past, straining as best we can through the deepening fog of time to discern lessons…
Judge ORDERS Fauci To Testify (Under Oath) in Collusion Case; Roman Gets Censored By Big Tech | Facts Matter
What if giant private companies are actually colluding with the government in deciding what information to censor? What if officials within the government are working hand-in-glove with these companies to censor free speech? Is that a violation of the First Amendment? That’s the exact question that’s being worked out right now in a massive lawsuit…
The Guilty Pleasure of Twitter Terminations
Commentary There is no English equivalent for Schadenfreude. It means to take guilty pleasure in the suffering of others when it is well deserved. We all know what that is like. We feel like it but don’t indulge it because we are not mean people. We are nice people. And yet, there are times when…
Fauci and Others Will Be Deposed
Commentary I’ve posted before on our Missouri v. Biden lawsuit, in which the state of Missouri and Louisiana—along with four private plaintiffs (Jay Bhattacharya, Martin Kulldorff, the advocacy organization Health Freedom Louisiana, and yours truly) represented by the New Civil Liberties Alliance—are suing the Biden administration for alleged free speech violations. We now have strong evidence that the executive branch…
My Black Uber Driver in Philly
Commentary I am writing this column in Burlington, Vermont. It is my seventh city in eight days. From my hometown of Los Angeles, I flew to Orlando, followed by Atlanta, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Chicago, and now Burlington. My Salem radio talk-show host colleagues and I went from city to city in “battleground” states to speak on…

Google, which has been under fire for allegations that its algorithms unfairly target conservative content, has been sued by the Republican National Committee (RNC) for allegedly routing the organization’s political campaign emails to spam.
