Israel has used the media law initially aimed at Al Jazeera to shut down AP. Keep this in mind when the law calling for the TicTok ban is ultimately used to censor other internet sites in the United States.

Following his misinformation campaign to reduce use of masks (as they were a visible sign that Biden didn't really end the pandemic) Biden is now using tariffs to increase the price of masks: "For certain personal protective equipment (PPE), including certain respirators and face masks, the tariff rates will increase from 0–7.5% to 25% in 2024."

Biden relies on a Vax-and-Relax strategy despite the fact that multiple modalities are needed (Swiss Cheese model) when the vaccine wanes after a few months, has limited protection against transmission, and studies only show protection against Long Covid as being somewhere between 25 and 40%.

Joe Biden is not only committing war crimes. He continues to violate the Bill of Rights by prosecuting Assange for reporting on war crimes in Iraq, giving the government new powers to censor the internet with the TicTok ban & has expanded the ability of the government to conduct warrantless surveillance against those protesting.

Biden has been pushing through legislation to increase warrantless mass surveillance, increase government ability to censor the internet & curb freedom of speech-- while continuing to support genocide in Gaza. Many Democrats ignore this because they say Trump would be worse. Biden could be building Nazi style concentration camps and BlueMAGA would still cover for Biden, claiming Trump would be worse.
