The White House Covid Censorship Machine
Aaron Kheriaty and Jenin Younes The Wall Street Journal
Newly released documents show that the White House has played a major role in censoring Americans on social media. Email exchanges between Rob Flaherty, the White House’s director of digital media, and social-media executives prove the companies put Covid censorship policies in place in response to relentless, coercive pressure from the White House—not voluntarily. The emails emerged Jan. 6 in the discovery phase of Missouri v. Biden, a free-speech case brought by the attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana and four private plaintiffs represented by the New Civil Liberties Alliance.
In his latest column for The Washington Post, Henry Olsen recommends that Kevin McCarthy curb rebellion in the House through an unorthodox application of his parliamentary powers.
Clare Morell was sought out for her expertise on Big Tech regulation for an article published by The Daily Caller on Chinese surveillance of American citizens.
Last week, Henry Olsen joined Heritage President Kevin Roberts to discuss the internal divisions weighing on the Republican party and how these will shape the 118th Congress.

Join EPPC and the Intercollegiate Studies Institute for a reception following the March for Life. Featured speakers Ryan T. Anderson and Erika Bachiochi will speak to those assembled on the character of the pro-life movement in the post-Roe era. Refreshments will be available.
Last week as Pope Francis celebrated the funeral Mass for his predecessor, Pope Benedict XVI, EPPC co-hosted a panel on the legacy of a theologian who some say will one day be considered a Doctor of the Church. As Pope for eight years, Benedict’s teaching envisions a Church moving forward into a broader culture awash in relativism. Francis X. Maier joined Kathryn Jean Lopez in conversation with Mary Ann Glendon and Fr. Joseph Fessio, SJ.
