This is a clip from our show SYSTEM UPDATE, now airing every weeknight at 7pm ET on Rumble.
Glenn chats with Prof. Jonathan Turley, one of America's foremost scholars on Constitutional Law and author of The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage. Turley warns about the enormous advances of the "censorship industry", an underhanded offshoot of the MICIMATT, currently focusing on tightening controls on the official narrative by cynically curtailing free speech in the name of protecting Americans from "disinformation". Ironically, it is precisely the US establishment, also called "the Deep State," that is and remains the main originator and disseminator of global disinformation. Just about everything it says about current and past realities, from the nature of the US political system (hint: it ain't a democracy), to the facts about Russia, Iran, Putin, China, the Ukraine War and the Israeli genocide on Palestinians—among other things—is a total lie, the world upside down. In this Orwellian framework, a powerful obstacle is the US Constitution's First Amendment, offering all Americans the absolute right to Free Speech, as a human right, notes Prof. Turley. Glenn and Turley agree that in this foul bipartisan project, it is the "Left" (that is, the liberals, the Fake Left, or Democrats, NOT the real left) that has become far more effective than the Right in persecuting practitioners of Free Speech.

- Now the fight against anti-semitism is being weaponised as a new sanctimonious McCarthyism.
- Unless opposed, neither justice nor our Constitutional right to Free Speech will survive this assault.
