This is of a piece with all the other flagrant violations of free speech rights that have been multiplying—some might say “metastasizing”—for the last few years. Julian Assange was the canary in the coal mine, it’s now all too clear.

Subject:BREAKING: UK Supreme Court Denies Julian Assange’s Appeal Application
Reply-To: team@assangedefense.orgDear Claudia, The UK Supreme Court today denied Julian Assange’s appeal application in his ongoing extradition case.
The UK’s top court refused to consider a lower court’s decision to rely on dubious “assurances” from the United States, ruling that the issue is not “an arguable point of law.”
Assange Defense has full coverage of the UK Supreme Court ruling and what’s next from Julian’s legal team.

We know that the Biden administration’s “assurances” aren’t worth the paper they are printed on. Remember, this is the same U.S. government that is shredding the First Amendment by trying to extradite him, spied on his lawyers and visitors, and even plotted to kidnap or assassinate him!
This is not the end. The fight will go on. Julian isn’t giving up, and neither should you.
Now more than ever, we need truth-tellers who can cut through the propaganda and disinformation that governments feed us. We need to protect press freedom and those who cut through the lies. And we need your help.
Join the Chorus: #FreeAssange
President Biden and Attorney General Garland can end this nightmare today by dropping the charges. But it’s up to us to keep up the pressure. You can join the chorus to #FreeAssange by signing our petition to Merrick Garland, visiting our site to find ways to get involved, or participating in an upcoming action.

“Help beat Putin by taking cold showers”
If “our free press”—both “left” and “right”—were a person, he would now be committed to a psychiatric ward, for his own protection (and ours).

Dr. Klaus Schwab or: How the CFR Taught Me to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
The World Economic Forum wasn’t simply the brainchild of Klaus Schwab, but was actually born out of a CIA-funded Harvard program headed by Henry Kissinger and pushed to fruition by John Kenneth Galbraith and the “real” Dr. Strangelove, Herman Kahn. This is the amazing story behind the real men who recruited Klaus Schwab, who helped him create the World Economic Forum, and who taught him to stop worrying and love the bomb.

What the Truckers Want: An Explanation for the Confused
BY SARABETH MATILSKY MARCH 11, 2022 https://brownstone.org/articles/what-the-truckers-want-an-explanation-for-the-confused/
FacebookTwitterRedditLinkedInFlipboardTelegramPrintEmaShaThere are many legitimate reasons to be cynical in this world, but I’ve decided to assume that my fellow Americans are generally really smart people. And for those of you who are very intelligent yet still “confused” about “What the truckers want,” I offer you this simple essay. My seven-year-old now understands the nuances, so please trust me, you can understand too! Lots of our politicians are in the dark, so this essay is also for them.
The People’s Convoy (not to be confused with various other rallies and truckers’ protests both related and unrelated) left Adelanto, CA, over two weeks ago. They are men and women, Democrats and Republicans and Independents, religious and non-religious, gay and straight, black and white, of many ethnicities. They represent working-class persons in the transportation sector and many others who have been maligned and in many cases lost their jobs due to Covid policies and vaccine mandates. They represent all Americans, who deserve the rights that our Constitution and Bill of Rights confer.
