The media wants to pretend Berenson v Biden doesn't exist

The blackout is pathetic but unsurprising, more proof of the media's leftist bias. If I'd produced the same evidence against Donald Trump, the suit would be front-page news. (Also: How to support it.)

What if I were suing Donald Trump and 3M and not Joe Biden and Pfizer?

It’s far from impossible.

Imagine if in spring 2020 the Trump White House had grown angry enough with my anti-lockdown and -mask rabble-rousing to complain publicly about social media “misinformation” and secretly “ask” Twitter why it hadn’t banned me.

Imagine Twitter had then banned me, and I’d sued the company. Imagine that as part of the suit, Twitter had turned over records showing a senior White House advisor - Jared Kushner, say - had singled me out for censorship.

Finally, imagine I had further discovered a 3M board member who was a friend of Kushner’s had also demanded Twitter censor me after I wrote how useless the company’s masks were.

Imagine that I’d then sued the Trump Administration. Berenson v Trump, not Berenson v Biden.

Now imagine the media’s reaction to that story.

Can you? Sure you can.

It would have been front-page news for weeks. Columnists would have penned weepy screeds about the Trump Administration’s war on free speech and the Constitution. MSNBC would have demanded a Congressional investigation. Twitter’s raft of left-leaning legal analysts would have questioned whether the 3M/Kushner conspiracy rose to a criminal level.

What actually happened.

In 2021, senior Biden Administration officials demanded Twitter ban me.

I’m not speculating. This statement is a fact. It comes from Twitter’s own records of a meeting between its top Washington lobbyists and senior Biden officials, including Andy Slavitt, White House senior advisor to the Covid response.

Twitter recorded Slavitt as having asked a “really tough question” about why it hadn’t already booted me. Given the government’s power, this was a question in the sense that Can you please step out of your car, sir? is a question.

It is frankly astonishing that Twitter didn’t comply immediately, but instead stood up for my right to report the truth until August 2021, before the pressure - from the government and Pfizer - became too much.

—

And so last Wednesday, I sued President Biden, Slavitt, and other federal officials and two Pfizer board members, Dr. Scott Gottlieb and Albert Bourla - the company’s chief executive - for conspiring to violate my Constitutional rights.

Again, I sued not just the government but Pfizer’s top executive. The suit is basically unprecedented. It is also meticulously detailed and argued. I can’t guarantee we will win, but I know no one reading the case can take it lightly.

You can read it here for yourself. I hope you will.

But you can’t read it about it in the mainstream media. The New York Post wrote a 170-word article about it over the weekend (calling me a “conservative commentator,” a designation anyone who reads Unreported Truths regularly will know is wrong), and Tucker Carlson had me on to talk about it on the night I filed.

That’s it.

Nothing in the New York Times, where I worked for a decade. Nothing from any of the other elite media news outlets that have run hundreds of stories about Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation lawsuit against Fox News. The Dominion/Fox suit is certainly a worthy story, with important 1st Amendment implications.

So is Berenson v Biden.

But because my suit is ideologically unpleasant, my former colleagues are simply ignoring it.

Look, by now it’s obvious my warnings about the mRNAs were right.

Their long-term efficacy against Covid infection is either zero or outright negative, and they have serious side effects that we still don’t fully understand. Covid is far from eliminated, but the world has essentially given up on the jabs. Only 1 in 40,000 Germans is now receiving a Covid vaccine per day.

But even if I had been wrong, as an American, I have the right to report on and discuss the mRNA shots - or anything else - without the government suppressing my speech.

Especially when that speech contradicts the government’s preferred narrative. In First Amendment law, that kind of censorship is called “viewpoint discrimination,” and the Supreme Court has found it is a particularly “egregious” Constitutional violation.

But not when the Biden Administration commits it, apparently.

And not when it is related to the mRNA jabs, which the media still insists on viewing as exempt from normal questions about side effects and effectiveness. (Supposedly anti-establishment reporters have spent two years covering for Pfizer and Moderna as the companies have made tens of billions of dollars in profit on the Covid vaccines. Just another of the pandemic’s many ironies.)

I wish I were surprised. I’m not, though, not at this point.

You probably aren’t either.

I do need your help, though.

Please spread the word.

And - I hope you don’t mind my asking - please consider donating to the Berenson v Biden legal fund. Many of you have already stepped up; since I first announced the lawsuit last week, you have given almost $50,000.

I appreciate your generosity more than you know. But - speaking of imagining - I cannot begin to imagine how much this lawsuit may cost. Pfizer and the government will have essentially unlimited defense budgets.

The First Amendment issues are only part of what’s at stake here. I assume Pfizer will do just about anything to keep secret what it knew about the mRNA failures in the summer of 2021, and what it told the White House.

I don’t expect to match Pfizer and the government dollar for dollar (or even dime for dollar). But I do hope to build enough of a war chest to have a strong response when the various defendants file their motions to dismiss.

If we beat those, things will get really interesting (and expensive).

And hey, maybe then the Times and other supposedly non-partisan and fact-friendly media outlets will cover Berenson v Biden.

Though I’m not holding my breath.
