ICYMI: RNC Fights Big Tech Censorship with New Lawsuit

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth El-Rassy · November 07, 2022 9:42 PM

In October, the Republican National Committee (RNC) announced it would be taking Google to court over the big tech company's alleged use of spam filters to block get-out-the-vote (GOTV) and fundraising efforts:

the Republican National Committee (RNC) filed a lawsuit against Google in federal court regarding its censorship of Republican fundraising and get-out-the-vote (GOTV) emails. For nearly a year, the RNC has tracked how Google has arbitrarily throttled the RNC’s ability to communicate with Gmail users by routing nearly 100% of RNC emails to spam during key fundraising and GOTV periods like clockwork each month. Earlier this year, the RNC filed an FEC complaint after the publication of a non-partisan study which found that Gmail, Google’s email platform, routed Republican emails to “spam” at a rate approximately 820% higher than similar Democrat emails during the 2020 Election cycle, while Microsoft Outlook and Yahoo did not.

House GOP Investigates PayPal and Schedules Interview with Former FBI Official

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth El-Rassy · October 21, 2022 6:06 PM

On Tuesday, Republican House members sent a letter to PayPal asking for information about a controversial policy the company considered enacting that would essentially punish users for engaging in speech the company disagrees with:

The letter demanded that PayPal send House Republicans on the Energy and Commerce Committee and Financial Services Committee written answers to 15 questions about the circumstances surrounding the “Acceptable Use Policy,” which was published by PayPal on Oct. 8. The questions demand PayPal to name those who drafted the policy, who had the authority to approve it, and whether PayPal had coordinated with the Biden administration regarding it. . .

Big Law's Tantrum at its Lawyers' Success

Posted on Blog by Republican National Lawyers Association (RNLA) · June 29, 2022 5:40 PM

Last week, former Solicitor General under the Bush Administration Paul Clement and Erin Murphy, his long-time colleague from the Solicitor General's office and in private practice, achieved perhaps the most significant victory at the Supreme Court under the Second Amendment in recent history.  The two successfully convinced the Supreme Court in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen to strike down New York's requirement that individuals must show "proper cause" before being able to obtain a concealed carry weapons permit. 

Yet after Clement and Murphy won at the Supreme Court in this historic decision, the two almost immediately resigned from Kirkland and Ellis, LLP, the world's top law firm in which both were partners.  While this may come as a surprise, strife between Kirkland and Ellis and the dynamic duo shows this decision was inevitable. 

In his resignation letter, Clement explained that the firm told him and Murphy that they needed to either drop out of existing representation of gun litigation clients or leave the firm. Clement and Murphy considered it wrong to drop their clients just because some of the legal establishment did not like the clients. In turn, the two [] resigned and announced they will start their own firm.

To the Left the Ayatollah & the CCP are Okay, But Parler is Not

Posted on Blog by Republican National Lawyers Association (RNLA) · January 11, 2021 9:38 PM

Parler, a conservative-friendly social media platform of more than ten million users, was effectively removed from the internet Sunday night after Amazon's Web Services terminated the platform from its cloud services.  Prior to its termination, Apple and Google, who together possess nearly all of the OS market, removed Parler from their app stores. 

How does this even happen?

Google Censors Republican Candidate and Protects Liberal Extremists

Posted on Blog by Lisa Dixon · October 31, 2018 5:05 PM

Political observers may remember that when Rep. Marsha Blackburn launched her campaign for Senate in Tennessee last year, Twitter blocked her campaign announcement because the pro-life content in the ad was "an inflammatory statement that is likely to evoke a strong negative reaction."  After a public backlash, Twitter eventually backed down.

Silicon Valley liberals, this time at Google, are again censoring an ad from Rep. Blackburn:
