Ga.) in drafting articles of impeachment against President William Jefferson Clinton for perjury and obstruction of justice.

Yesterday we sent out an email about how the Government uses FISA to gobble up your personal information and how it is trying to expand these invasive practices, Read here: https://www.paychute.com/feed/e4f6f479-88d4-458c-a26e-a7d3ed7d6389

One person who wished to remain anonymous replied with this video you are watching right now. This is their message and their words, not ours, but we thought we would help share this with the wider community. Comment below what you think.

"I produced with the help of a young lady both these videos.

I'm not looking to promote myself what so ever.

I had both videos on YouTube under AKA both were pulled down claiming that I had some type of violation. When I asked they would not respond.

Just now placed both videos on a neighborhood site within 3 hours I had 300 views almost the other one within 2 hours almost 200 views they got pulled down they called it spam.

All I want to do is get the message out to everybody.

We can fix the problems we see today , easily and quickly and stop all this insanity if people just understand we have the power not them.

And stop letting them use psychology to divide us. the message is for everybody.

I'm old and not use to using the internet so I don't understand how to get the exposure that it needs.

And again for the most part I prefer to say anonymous. It's not about me it's about all of us.
Once it becomes about an individual and not the word spoken, the power and the meaning are lost"

Joining PodChute's weekly livestream this week was Justin Amash, former 5-term Congressman from Michigan who's currently running for one of the state's Senate seats. Amash is one of the few principled advocates for limiting the size, scope, and spending of the federal government.

We discussed why he chose to run for Senate, what he plans to accomplish if elected, what he would do if he were in office during the current top-down push to reauthorize unconstitutional warrantless surveillance (FISA Section 702), and more!

“If we attempted to ban all words or images that had ever been blamed for inspiring or instigating particular crimes by some aberrant or antisocial individual, we would end up with little left to read or view.”

Join me for a discussion with returning guest Nadine Strossen, New York Law School Professor Emerita, past national President of the ACLU (1991-2008), and Senior Fellow with FIRE (the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression), to discuss the new edition of her groundbreaking feminist defense of pornography as free speech, "Defending Pornography: Free Speech, Sex, and the Fight for Women's Rights." The book is as relevant as ever, given the recent banning in Texas, among other places, of websites offering pornographic content without "adequate" privacy-invading "age assurance" measures.

The interview was live-streamed Wednesday, April 3, 2024.

As always, the Federalist Society takes no position on particular legal or public policy issues; all expressions of opinion are those of the speakers.

The Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is a group of conservatives and libertarians interested in the current state of the legal order. It is founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be. The Society seeks both to promote an awareness of these principles and to further their application through its activities.
