Big Tech censorship has kicked into high gear just in time for the 2024 elections.  Google-owned YouTube, Amazon, TikTok, Meta-owned Facebook, Microsoft-owned LinkedIn and X all cracked down on free speech — especially election-related content — during the month of September. X suspiciously targeted a former President Donald Trump-affiliated account just before the presidential debate, while Facebook and Amazon Alexa displayed explicit pro-Vice President Kamala Harris bias. YouTube was busy censoring content about Christian persecution and Jan. 6, while LinkedIn continued to enforce COVID-19 groupthink. And over at TikTok, the Communist Chinese government-tied app dubiously removed an exposé about Orwellian digital IDs. Below are several of the worst examples of Big Tech censorship found in MRC Free Speech America’s exclusive CensorTrack database from the month of September. 1) Amazon Alexa urges users to vote for Harris, not Trump. Multiple X users postedvideos of themselves asking Amazon's virtual assistant Alexa the reasons they should vote for Trump.  “I cannot provide responses that endorse any political party or its leader,” Alexa responded, according to Fox News Digital. When Fox News Digital tested it an additional time, Alexa responded, saying, “I cannot promote content that supports a certain political party or a specific politician. Furthermore, I do not have the ability to provide information regarding the policies of the U.S. government. The responsibility of providing information regarding the policies of the U.S. government lies with the government itself.” The Amazon assistant did, however, providereasons to vote for Vice President and Democrat nominee for president Harris, including “that she is a female of color with a comprehensive plan to address racial injustice and inequality throughout the country” and “promises a tough-on-crime approach to battling the violent crime wave that has swept the nation in recent years.”  Of course, Amazon, as Big Tech companies so often do, claimed to Fox News Digital that “[t]his was an error that was quickly fixed.” 2) X imposes pre-debate censorship. Ahead of the first presidential debate between former Trump and Harris, Trump War Room, the “official War Room account of the 2024 Trump campaign,” shared a video of Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) ripping the Biden-Harris administration for America’s inflation crisis. Trump War Room captioned the post, “@ByronDonalds: 'Inflation when Donald Trump left office was 1.4% year-over-year... When Joe Biden and Kamala Harris came into office, many states were already back to work... and when they wanted to his 'American Rescue Plan,' which she co-signed, we told them on Capitol Hill, you're going to create a labor shortage, which is going to create inflation.'” In response, X initially slapped an interstitial over the video saying, “Content warning: Adult Content. X labeled this post as containing Adult Content.” Several other posts were similarly labeled, including Trump War Room’s video post of a BBC News clip showing voters criticizing Harris. “Former Pennsylvania steel worker: 'I would believe Donald Trump. I don't believe Harris. She's been there three and a half years and hasn't done nothing,’” Trump War Room wrote in the post.  3) Facebook runs interference for pro-abortion propaganda. Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council (FRC), challenged ABC News’s presidential debate moderators who contradicted Republican presidential candidate Trump’s accusation that there are states that legally allow infanticide. Perkins’s Facebook post had an FRC map showing 15 states that have no legal protections for babies born alive after an attempted abortion. Facebook initially hid the map behind an interstitial, wrongly asserting, “False information. Checked by independent fact-checkers.” The interstitial was later removed, but the warning label remained, linking to leftist fact-checker PolitiFact’s claim, “No legal protections for ‘born alive’ babies in some states? Experts say that’s wrong.” Users were also forced to click to confirm that they wished to share the post. 4) TikTok removes video exposing digital ID program for unspecified reasons. Evita Duffy-Alfonso, Bongino Report’s Early Edition with Evitahost, posted a clip of her Sept. 4 show on TikTok, “The new world order is closing in on us fast. Kenya's multi-billion dollar digital ID system intends to digitize citizen's biometric data.” It included a clip of Kenya's Interior and National Administration cabinet secretary Kithure Kindiki explaining the “automated biometric identification system, which … involves the iris, fingerprints as well as facial recognition.” She subsequently shared a screenshot on X showing TikTok removed the clip for allegedly violating “our Community Guidelines.” 5) YouTube censors description of Christian persecution. Radio talk show host Michael Savage said in a live broadcast on X and Facebook that YouTube suspended him for a week after he shared an eight-year-old compilation video. One of his listeners had compiled clips of Savage discussing Christmas, the genocide of Christians by Muslims in the Middle East and efforts to help persecuted Christians. YouTube’s removal notice described some of the video’s content as “violent or graphic.” While the video wasn’t removed, YouTube issued a strike and a one-week suspension against Savage’s account. 6) X censors post about reports of illegal migrants eating pets. The Heritage Foundation's Oversight Project posted on its X account, “We have obtained an Aug. 28 police report from Springfield, Ohio where a caller alleged that their cat was stolen and chopped up. We have not verified any of the allegations and are disclosing the source material only due to immense public interest.” The post also showed a screenshot of a police report page. X imposed an interstitial filter over the video requiring users to click through the warning: “Content warning: Adult Content. X labeled this post as containing Adult Content."  7) Microsoft’s LinkedIn still enforces COVID-19 dogma. Dr. Mary Talley Bowden MD, a critic of government and leftist COVID-19 narratives, stated that LinkedIn removed a post from her account as “misinformation.” She said in her post the following: “Unexplained rashes, serious severe pain, fatigue, POTS, neurological tinnitus, Bell's palsy, stroke,... ." In a follow up X post, she completed the thought she began in the LinkedIn post, “... stroke, myocarditis... yet these [COVID-19] shots are still on the market.” 8) YouTube Is still obsessed with January 6. The Babylon Bee posted a trailer for its January 6 mockumentary. YouTube imposed a fact-checking label linking to the January 6 Wikipedia page, saying, “On January 6, 2021, the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., was attacked by a mob of supporters of then–U.S. President Donald Trump in an attempted self-coup d'état two months after his defeat in the 2020 presidential election.” The Babylon Bee is a member of MRC’s Free Speech Alliance.

A community of hound hunters across America banded together this week to donate thousands of dollars' worth of supplies to their fellow countrymen devastated by Hurricane Helene, and their efforts were so successful that a local Tennessee post office reportedly couldn't manage all the deliveries.Last Friday, Hurricane Helene sent such torrential rainfall to parts of Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee that within hours, residents were forced to flee to their rooftops in hopes of rescue.T.L. Jones, the pastor of Appalachian Baptist Church in Greeneville, Tennessee, explained to Blaze News just how serious the situation quickly became."People [were] kicking out the top windows to get rescued by boats and lifted out by air in different places," he said. "And there's no way for the people in this area to have any concept of what was coming. ... And then once it happened, it just swept people away."A friend, Boone McCrary, stopped by Pastor Jones' home shortly before venturing out in his boat to rescue someone trapped by the flooding. McCrary never returned."He capsized and drowned. They found him yesterday. They found his body," Jones said.The pastor also shared harrowing stories of helicopters saving patients off the rooftop of a hospital, of a husband who drowned while attempting to escape the area with his wife after their home was ripped from its foundation, and a dam barely holding firm as millions of gallons of water cascade over its top.'Where is the federal government? Where are they? We haven't waited on them, but we sure expected them to show up.'Amid these dangerous conditions came a ray of hope: a group of people from all over America united in their love of hound hunting and their fellow man. Through the coordinated efforts of Pastor Jones and Chris Powell, the host of the "Houndsman XP" podcast, this group managed to send supplies en masse to Greeneville. Screenshot of Houndsman XP website. Used with permission.With the help of his daughter — "It needed a woman's touch on it," he joked — Powell developed an Amazon gift registry and then shared it on social media. The response has been nothing short of amazing. As of Thursday afternoon, people had sent more than $8,000 worth of supplies to the ravaged area."There's everything on that site, from pre-made baby bottles to water to feminine hygiene products to cleaning supplies. canned food, snack food," Powell told Blaze News. Photo of the Amazon registry receipts, shared with Blaze NewsPowell and his fellow hound hunters were, in fact, so generous that the local Greeneville post office needed help delivering all the items donated off the Amazon registry, Pastor Jones said."It comes to a post office, and then we send vehicles to the post office and pick it up because they can't handle the number of stuff that's coming in," he explained to Blaze News.Blaze News reached out to the U.S. Postal Service to confirm Jones' version of events but did not receive a response.Powell also contacted Elite Nutrition, one of his show's sponsors, and the folks there donated two tons of pet food, he claimed. Photo shared with Blaze NewsJones said that he also raised a total of $10,000 from the collection plate at his church as well as from another local church. He then started walking door-to-door, handing out $250 to residents. "Just so they could get some cash in their pockets," he said.A network of churches and other organizations have reached out to Pastor Jones to send resources to the area as well. On the outside of one box of donated supplies was a particularly touching note: "To our fellow Tenneseans from the men of Uncle John's Handguns." Photo shared with Blaze NewsThough need in the area remains great, Powell, Jones, and others will soon divert the donations, which continue to arrive, to parts of North Carolina because the good people of Greeneville want to help take care of others.Powell then shared a heartwarming story that aptly conveys the generous character, or what he described as the "fighting spirit," of the Appalachian people."One of the guys ... was literally delivering supplies and insulin and medicine up into the mountains with his horse and a pack mule. And he was talking to an older lady, an elderly lady there, that she couldn't even get out on a road. She didn't have electricity, and she didn't have water, but she had a spring," Powell said."And he rode up in there and he says, 'Can I leave you some food?' She says, 'I'm good. But I've got supper cooking. If you want to stay and eat with me, you're more than welcome to.'"Powell, a retired conservation officer in Indiana who helped in the relief efforts following several natural disasters, including Hurricane Katrina in 2005, told Blaze News that he knew the hound-hunting community would open their hearts and their wallets to those who are suffering."They're the people that serve on your power crew. They're the people that will build your house, and when they're in times of need, they will step up to the plate," he said with pride."[They're] just good, red-blooded, freedom-loving Americans that know the value of stepping up and helping their fellow man."Meanwhile, FEMA, a federal agency with an annual budget of nearly $30 billion, has offered just $750 to taxpaying citizens who in some cases lost almost all of their possessions."Where is the federal government? Where are they? We haven't waited on them, but we sure expected them to show up, and we just want to know: Where are they? Where is FEMA?" Jones asked.Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas insisted the federal agencies under his purview, including FEMA, are doing the best they can."We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have. We are expecting another hurricane hitting. We do not have the funds," Mayorkas said Wednesday.Like Blaze News?

Whether you like “The Breakfast Club” or not, radio host Charlamagne tha God is undoubtedly a strong American voice with the power to sway voters. Which is why his comments regarding a recent Trump campaign ad that aired during football games last weekend are so important. “I’ll tell you what, that ad they was running during the football games this weekend claiming the vice president supports funding gender transition surgeries for all prison inmates and migrants in the U.S., that was nuts,” Charlamagne said on the air. “I don’t know if it was the backdrop of football, but when you hear the narrator say ‘Kamala supports taxpayer-funded sex changes for prisoners,' that one line, I was like ‘Hell no, I don’t want my taxpayer dollars going to that.'" “That ad was impactful, I am not going to lie,” he added. The ad was strong not only because of that line but because it immediately backed up its claim with a clip of Kamala saying exactly what she was being accused of. “Surgery for prisoners: Every transgender inmate in the prison system would have access,” Kamala said in an interview with a transgender woman. “It’s hard to believe, but it’s true. Even the liberal media was shocked Kamala supports taxpayer-funded sex changes for prisoners and illegal aliens,” the voice-over in the ad continued. “Kamala is for they/them. President Trump is for you,” the ad concluded. Pat Gray and Keith Malinak of “Pat Gray Unleashed” were also impressed by the ad. “It included the chick saying ‘You’re talking about in prisons,’” Malinak says. “It added that extra little layer of ‘Wow, this is completely absurd.’ That was a good ad.” Want more from Pat Gray?To enjoy more of Pat's biting analysis and signature wit as he restores common sense to a senseless world, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.

Rep. Andy Harris, R-Md., told Newsmax on Friday that the tentative 62% pay raise the striking longshoremen negotiated will have a negative effect on the economy by driving up prices beyond what they already are as a result of inflation.

Washington DC—The wave of automation has finally reached the nation’s capitol as the entire US Congress and staff will be replaced with automated tellers in the coming weeks, amid talks of Congress getting a raise. “At $174,000 a year and a substantial amount for life, that was getting pretty expensive,” President Trump’s legislative liaison Marjory Jenkins said. “So, we decided what was best for the country and the taxpayer was to just replace every representative and senator with a computer.” The automated tellers are programmed to give canned responses to constituents’ questions, just like the real politicians. “I wrote my automated senator about a very important topic to us all,” Jills Leland said, “and the machine thanked me for caring about the community and said that my concerns were being addressed and then it didn’t do anything about it. It was just like my real senator!” “Plus, we don’t have to worry about health care and all the other associated costs,” Jenkins continued. The plan is projected to save billions of dollars a year, especially considering all the staffers that come with the legislators. People love the convenience. “I was never able to meet my representative,” Sherry Phillips of Des Moines said, “but with these machines, I can get the same non-response I would’ve gotten from him within seconds.” “$175,000 minimum wage for Congresspeople is absurd. It’s about time Congress optimized!” Originally published March 16, 2019. The post Costly Congresspeople to be replaced with automated tellers appeared first on Genesius Times.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — As reports circulated about an incident in which Kamala Harris's husband was accused of assaulting a woman, a trembling, bleeding spokeswoman issued a statement denying that Doug Emhoff would ever hit anyone.

Helen Hunt marked National Daughters’ Day with a photo featuring her 20-year-old daughter Makena Lei, who wore a white top with matching sneakers and black pants. Helen was right beside her in a white shirt and jeans as they posed for the mirror selfie. The resemblance between Helen and her daughter was even more obvious as they stood side by side, looking like the blonde and red-haired version of the same person. The 61-year-old looked gorgeous as she accessorized her outfit with a pair of sunglasses, a black bag, and matching shoes. Fans react to Helen Hunt’s mother-daughter snap Helen Hunt/ Instagram Fans complimented Helen and Makena, saying they both looked cool in their coordinating outfits. They also left sweet remarks about Makena’s red hair, with one fan teasing that her daughter has the same hair color. “Cheers to your daughter,” another simply commented. Back in May, Helen posted a throwback birthday photo of Makena to celebrate her 20th, and fans joined her to celebrate via the comments. “I’m so proud to walk alongside as you live this righteous life. I love you forever and beyond. Mama,” Helen wrote.
