Friend, Joe Biden’s
White House just changed the requirements for a journalist to obtain
hard-pass credentials.
The result…
…effectively banning
our client, Simon Ateba, and more than 440 reporters from the White House
Briefing Room.
The White House is
sending a loud, clear message: if you don’t work for CNN, The New
York Times, or another legacy media outlet, and if you refuse to
mindlessly lob soft balls to Karine Jean-Pierre about Joe Biden’s ice
cream du jour, you don’t belong in the White House Press Corps.
Because this White House
doesn’t respect the freedom of the press.
Which is why I’m asking you for an urgent donation of $35
or more today to help fund Simon’s lawsuit against the White House and
Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.
This White House has a
terrible record of censoring journalists whose stories make the White House
look bad.
We all remember how the
Biden Administration pressured “Big Tech” to censor journalists
questioning the efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Now, the White House is
shifting its attention to our client, Simon Ateba.
Simon Ateba is a
journalist and White House correspondent with Today News Africa, a small a
news organization focusing on ties and interactions between Africa and the
United States.
Simon frequently
challenges Karine Jean-Pierre’s non-answers, inaccurate information, and
demands transparency and the truth.
In response to Simon’s
insistence on getting the truth, the White House and Jean-Pierre changed
the rules, I believe, to specifically target Simon and other journalists
like him who want nothing more than to do their job as real
journalists.
That’s right
– the White House rewrote the rules to shut out hundreds of hardworking
reporters.
And that’s why we’re
suing the White House and Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on behalf of
reporter Simon Ateba.
Will you send an urgent donation $35 or more to the Center
for American Liberty today to support our lawsuit on behalf of Simon Ateba
and his fight for justice?
You and I know the White
House’s actions here are a clear violation of the freedom of the
press.
This is bigger than
Simon or any one journalist, Friend.
Because the Biden
Administration doesn’t just want to shut up Simon…
… it wants to censor
every journalist who challenges the White House’s lies, corruption, or
abuse of power.
We need your help right
away.
Which is why I’m asking you for an urgent donation of $35
or more today to help fund Simon’s lawsuit against the White House and
Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.
That’s why
we’ve taken on Simon Ateba’s legal battle – and why I hope you will
step up and help us win this important battle.
Simon needs you, our
attorneys need you, and your country needs you.
Thank you in advance for your support.
