Popular blowback — the peasants armed with pitchforks — is literally the only check on their power.

Liberal journalists sound alarm: Government-driven 'disinformation' censorship is a threat to democracy | Blaze Media
Liberal journalists sound alarm: Government-driven 'disinformation' censorship is a threat to democracy | Blaze Media:
Establishmentarians in the West have long harped on the need to protect democracy. Notwithstanding their rhetorical support for a politically empowered citizenry, it appears there are forces, particularly in the intelligence community, that are unwilling to trust Americans to determine — on their own and in concert with one another — how best to wield their civic power.
On Thursday, investigative journalist Matt Taibbi distilled the problem down for Congress thusly: "Take away the highfalutin talk about countering hate and reducing harm, and anti-disinformation is just a bluntly elitist gatekeeping exercise. If you prefer to think in progressive terms, it's class war."

'For once, AOC is right': AOC gets more than she bargained for after complaining that residents are fleeing New York City | Blaze Media
'For once, AOC is right': AOC gets more than she bargained for after complaining that residents are fleeing New York City | Blaze Media:
"For once, AOC is right," the board acknowledged. "The thing is, it’s the policies that she and her progressive allies want more of that have made the city so expensive."
For starters, the city finds itself in this position because it has to feed and house tens of thousands of migrants, costing city taxpayers more than billions of dollars, the Post pointed out. Yet progressives — at least before the migrant crisis — are very pro-immigration and have been quick to condemn efforts to stymie mass migration.

Peter Doocy makes KJP look silly after she tries to gaslight Americans about economy, blame Trump for economic woes | Blaze Media:
Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy exposed on Monday the hole in the Biden administration's narrative that the economy is doing great because of President Joe Biden.
The number-one issue Americans are concerned about, polls show, is the economy. Those same polls have shown that the "Bidenomics" message — the Biden administration's attempt to gaslight Americans about the state of the economy — completely flopped with voters.
