BANNED! YouTube Removes CPAC Texas video featuring President Trump and other conservative leaders Once again, YouTube has tried to silence conservatives and unilaterally removed an entire day of content from CPAC Texas from their platform without warning. The latest attack from Google-owned YouTube was first reported by The Daily Wire : Footage from the American Conservative Union’s recent Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) event in Texas was removed from YouTube last week, according to the conservative group. The conservative conference told The Daily Wire that YouTube pulled the video for “misinformation” and gave CPAC a “strike” on September 23 — a sanction prohibiting CPAC from posting for one week, with two more strikes leading to the account’s removal. The CPAC event in Dallas, Texas, which took place from August 4 to 7, featured high-profile conservatives such as former President Donald Trump, Fox News host Sean Hannity, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH). “The removal of CPAC Texas is yet another example of YouTube censoring conservative voices,” CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp told The Daily Wire. “This cannot continue. The Silicon Valley monopolies abuse their control over the flow of information to prop up the Democrat Party. It’s time we rein in Big Tech.” Read on DailyWire.com .

Matt Schlapp in Fox News: Raid on Trump’s home means US now a third world country News & Releases Explore the latest updates, news, and product releases to stay informed and ahead of the curve. Matt Schlapp in Fox News: Raid on Trump’s home means US now a third world country In a new column for FoxNews.com , CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp talks about how the raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home is a wake up call. The woke, socialist Left will stop at nothing to destroy our nation, but after gathering with thousands of patriots at CPAC in Dallas this past weekend, I’m confident that freedom will prevail, and we will save America. It’s certainly hard to be optimistic when the challenges we face are so drastic. The CPAC straw poll showed that 91 percent of CPAC Texas attendees believe the greatest threat to America is “internal forces such as the Deep State, public education and the mainstream media.” Just eight percent responded that “external forces such as Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea” are our greatest threat. And that’s understandable. We are witnessing the disintegration of the Left’s coalition in America. But as it breaks it is lurching more aggressively. It’s time for each American to stand for each other and rid this nation of this socialist reign of terror. President Biden’s politicized FBI just raided President Trump’s home in Mar-a-Lago. This nation is becoming unrecognizable. Biden has successfully transformed America into a third-world country. Read more on FoxNews.com NEWS & RELEASES .

Murdock: ACU Ratings site “makes it a snap” to see which party is most extreme News & Releases Explore the latest updates, news, and product releases to stay informed and ahead of the curve. Murdock: ACU Ratings site “makes it a snap” to see which party is most extreme Fox News Contributor Deroy Murdock recently highlighted the ACU Foundation Center for Legislative Accountability’s “recently modernized Web site” and its ability to filter Members of Congress to see which party actually has the most extreme leaders. The American Conservative Union’s recently modernized Web site makes it a snap to review senators’ and House members’ votes clear back to 1972. Running from 0 for most liberal to most conservative at 100, the ideological spectrum cleaves into thirds: left (0 to 33), middle (34 to 66) and right (67 to 100). Moderate Democrats should inhabit this center slice. Good luck finding them there. “Normal” Democrats who loudly claim to be in the middle are on the left — often deeply so. The new ratings site makes the in-depth ratings history of both Congress and all 50 state legislatures available to compare across parties, issues, geography, and even decades.
