Deep State's Weaponization Against Musk and Twitter Revealed
Plus my appearance on Inez Stepman's 'High Noon' podcast on the J6 Tapes, Twitter Files, and Chinese coronavirus origins -- and the nexus with the War on Wrongthink
Deep Administrative State Depredations Exposed in FTC Investigation of Musk
What’s the price one must pay for exposing America’s public-private censorship regime?
Evidently, it’s not just tens of billions of dollars.
Nor is it the scorn and derision of congress and corporate media, let alone Silicon Valley, one’s employees, and customers.
No, as we’re now learning—if not already made clear over the last half-decade—for the unforgivable act of exposing the malign and weaponized administrative state that is the tip of the spear of said regime, one must face its unending harassment.
That’s the key takeaway from the House Weaponization Committee’s stunning but unsurprising recent report on the Federal Trade Commission’s targeting of Elon Musk over his purchase of Twitter, and whistleblowing about its prior First Amendment-eviscerating coordination with the federal government.
I analyze that report in a new piece at the Epoch Times, concluding:
Whether it’s in Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s demanding that Fox News pull Tucker Carlson off the air for having the gall to show the Jan. 6 tapes Schumer’s fellow Democrats had no interest in investigating, or Congressional Democrats and the media’s joint efforts to target the FBI whistleblowers cooperating with the Weaponization Committee—since only Democrats’ favored “whistleblowers” are to be respected, or the jihad against Elon Musk, the point is always the same: America’s ruling class must crush those who threaten its power—especially by exposing its rot and corruption.
This is why a Weaponization Committee is an imperative first step if we are to ever restore a modicum of liberty and justice in this country.

On the Public-Private Censorship Regime and the War on Wrongthink
I was pleased to join the “High Noon” podcast, hosted by my “NatCon Squad” co-host Inez Stepman this week. The show description captures well our discussion:
Ben Weingarten, Editor at large at RealClearInvestigations and Senior Contributor to The Federalist, joins the podcast to run through his reporting on revelations about January 6th, the Twitter Files, and Covid origin hearings. Together, these three stories, with smoking guns revealed through public documents and testimony, represent three different bases - domestic terrorism, foreign interference, and public health, respectively - to turn law enforcement and a public-private censorship apparatus against Americans expressing their views as citizens on domestic politics. It’s the new structure of governance we live under, and if not dismantled, it’s likely to extend to silencing crimethink on any number of other topics. Ben and Inez go through what has been revealed in the last two weeks about each topic, and then discuss the impact to rule of law and freedom of speech, as well as what ought to be done about it.
