All it said was that it simply no longer wanted to serve the ministries’ “business type” and that Indigenous Advance has exceeded the banks “risk tolerance.” But Indigenous Advance isn’t ideological or partisan. And it’s had the same ...

Elon Musk offered to cover your legal bill if you were unfairly treated by an employer because of something you tweeted — but what about mistreatment by the government?

Online media such as Facebook and Twitter have become the primary way many, if not most, Americans access the news. But government officials have been pressuring Big Tech to do their dirty work for them—trying to sidestep First Amendment safeguards to censor viewpoints the government doesn’t like.

That’s why Alliance Defending Freedom is standing for the protection and preservation of free speech in cases where government actors, including the Biden administration, have been caught pressuring technology companies to do their bidding. “Using ...
