No doubt the Harris/Walz dingbat duo were thrilled to see that European Commissioner for Internal Markets and Services Thierry Breton threatened Elon Musk with government sanctions for having the temerity to hold a conversation with former president Donald Trump on Twitter/X. 

It wouldn't surprise me at all if they knew beforehand that the letter threatening Twitter/X was coming since the E.U. and the U.S. intelligence agencies cooperate closely on monitoring what they mislabel as "misinformation" and "disinformation." I have no direct evidence that the Biden administration and the Breton collaborated on this matter, but it strains credulity to believe that the European Union would threaten legal sanctions of such magnitude on a US citizen, US company, and US political candidate for president without at least keeping the US government in the loop. 

...Breton is one of the notorious figures in an anti-free speech movement that has swept over Europe. He is now using the DSA to force other countries to censor their citizens. It is free speech regulated to the lowest common denominator, the level set by the EU and Breton.

At this point, after so much of what we have seen, the burden of proof is on the administration. They have worked tirelessly to suppress dissent, and even the US media is now all in on suppressing political messaging they don't approve of. Watch the Washington Post's White House correspondent almost beg for Trump to be censored. 

This is a reporter for the second-largest newspaper in the country asking how the White House is going to stop people that he doesn't like from speaking freely.

That seems like an issue. https://t.co/gYS6712kSK

Most Americans have been sleepwalking their way into tyranny, having been brainwashed by the regime and Big Tech into believing that people who disagree with them are so dangerous that they must be put in speech jail, or in many cases in Europe, in real jail. In the UK the government just let a pedophile go after he apologized but people who post memes and express frustration about migrant violence are put in jail for months or even years. 

Thierry Breton, though, is the better metaphor for what is happening across the West. He has enormous power to censor every person in the world, and he is just a bureaucrat. He has never faced a voter, had to make a case for what he is doing, or faced any consequences for overstepping. 

The transnational elite just gave him the power to silence anyone in the world. That's it. 

With great audience comes greater responsibility #DSA

As there is a risk of amplification of potentially harmful content in 🇪🇺 in connection with events with major audience around the world, I sent this letter to @elonmusk

The Digital Services Act in the European Union would be an offense against human rights even if it only applied in Europe, but that was never the sole point. It is a tool to get around First Amendment protections in the United States because technology allows free expression to flow around the world. 

If you say something over here, Europeans might hear it now. So the E.U. demands the right to silence you. 

After Musk bought Twitter and pledged to dismantle much of the company’ massive censorship system, Breton went after the company at the urging of Hillary Clinton.

For those who criticized the European Union as a dangerous step toward a transnational governance system, Breton is the personification of their worst fears. He has wielded the sweeping powers and vague standards of the DSA to force companies to engage in comprehensive censorship regardless of national laws or their own values.

The E.U. is a larger market than the United States and nearly as wealthy, so any company that pulls out of it is crippled. And that is the point of this law: the transnational elite is eager to cripple any speech anywhere whenever they want. And they are so confident in their ability to do so that they literally announced their desire to suppress an American candidate for president with at least an even chance of winning the election. 

Breton threatened Musk that the EU was watching and that the Trump interview could bring crippling sanctions under the DSA: “As there is a risk of amplification of potentially harmful content in [the EU] in connection with events with major audience around the world, I sent this letter to @elonmusk.”

As in the past, Breton refused to recognize that he was interfering with elections in another country. Sitting in his EU office, he demanded that whatever was discussed in the interiew satisfy his own content standards: “As the relevant content is accessible to EU users and being amplified also in our jurisdiction, we cannot exclude potential spillovers in the EU.”

Breton expressly warned that the censors were watching. Breton wrote of the Musk-Trump interview. “Therefore, we are monitoring the potential risks in the EU associated with the dissemination of content that may incite violence, hate and racism in conjunction with major political – or societal – events around the world, including debates and interviews in the context of elections.”

After years of exhaustive investigation, the "Russian collusion" narrative bubble burst because it was a disinformation operation pushed by Hillary Clinton, the mainstream media, and American intelligence and law enforcement stooges. 

But right out in the open, the European Union is colluding with the Biden administration to silence Donald Trump. 

Let that sink in. Our Western allies in the "free world" are openly working to prevent a fair election in the United States, and the media are applauding. 

In a sane world, this would be a casus belli. It is an open declaration of hostility to our Constitutional order, but obviously, nobody in power is upset. They love this, in fact, because nobody in our Establishment believes that ordinary Americans have any rights, just privileges granted to us through their benevolence. 

Everyone knows ✨we✨ should be in charge of distributing the approved misinformation without interference by other citizens. https://t.co/XSQhl3pTp0

I have long thought that the greatest shield the left has from scrutiny is the sheer audacity of their actions and demands. When you describe what they are doing people instantly doubt you. 

"No sane person would do that! You must be exaggerating." And the MSM comes in, "debunks" an obviously true claim, and suddenly you have porn in school, children getting sterilized and mutilated, and hoaxes ruining the world. 

This act by Breton was similarly audacious. No sane person in America would think that a bureaucrat in Brussels could demand the right to silence a US presidential candidate, so it goes by largely unnoticed. It seems so insane that it can't be true. 

But it is true. And because our media covers for and cheerleads these efforts, we are marching toward tyranny.
