Dear Friend,
Whatever government-driven censorship we tolerate now is destined to serve as the building blocks for greater acts of tyranny in the future.

That’s why The Rutherford Institute ([link removed]) is challenging the government’s efforts to chill lawful First Amendment activities—at the ballot box, in the classroom, on social media, at city council meetings, at peaceful protests, at religious gatherings, etc.—in order to muzzle the citizenry.

Your support ([link removed]) makes it possible for our attorneys to stand up to a growing cancel culture mindset within government agencies across the political spectrum that seeks to censor, ostracize and shun those with opposing, disfavored, or politically unpopular viewpoints.
HELP US MAKE THE GOVERNMENT PLAY BY THE RULES OF THE CONSTITUTION: SUPPORT THE RUTHERFORD INSTITUTE ([link removed])

You see, the government does not want us to act as if we have rights, let alone attempting to exercise those rights peaceably and lawfully, whether it’s protesting politically correct efforts to whitewash the past, challenging COVID-19 mandates, questioning election outcomes, or listening to alternate viewpoints—even conspiratorial ones—in order to form our own opinions about the true nature of government.

And they definitely do not want us to engage in First Amendment activities that challenge the government’s power, reveal the government’s corruption, expose the government’s lies, and encourage the citizenry to push back against the government’s many injustices.

Yet it’s our job as citizens to speak truth to power.

Please take a moment to show that you stand with The Rutherford Institute ([link removed]) in our critical efforts to push back against the government’s power grabs, corruption, immorality and ongoing assaults on the Constitution.

Together, we WILL make America free again.

For freedom,

John W. Whitehead
President

P.S. The Rutherford Institute ([link removed]) —nonpartisan, apolitical and committed to the principles enshrined in the Constitution and Bill of Rights—is working hard to push back against the government’s heavy-handed tyranny on almost every front. Still, we couldn’t do all that we do without you.
