There’s a dirty little secret in corporate conservative media that I’ve been attempting to expose for a while. To date, I’ve talked to four editors and reporters for “conservative” news outlets who have told me the same basic story. Sadly, none of them have been willing to go on record, even anonymously, and so all I have is the information I’ve been given without the ability to properly source it.
But here’s the thing. You don’t need a whistleblower to be able to see the truth for yourself. Many in “conservative” media are beholden to the editorial whims of Big Tech tyrants as proxies of Democrats and the globalist elites. These tyrants, especially Google and Facebook, use their influence to force “conservative” news outlets to self-censor on certain topics. Those who are unwilling to do so cannot run the lucrative Google ads that are often the financial backbone for these organizations. Those who are unwilling to do so will not get the massive traffic they receive from Facebook and to some extent Twitter.
They’ve been given a choice: avoid certain topics or get kicked off the teat.
On the latest episode of America First Report, I discussed what I know about this unfortunate phenomenon. I noted that I do not necessarily condemn these companies for two reasons. First, most of them got into using Google for ads and Facebook for traffic long before they were given the ultimatums, and I would hope that they’re doing what they can to ween themselves from the dollars and eyeballs.
Second, it does not behoove me to judge those who are doing what they think is best for their employees. There are families who rely on the revenue generated by these sites. Are they just supposed to shut down or start firing people in order to stay ideologically correct?
There’s a third reason I don’t attack these sites directly (other than Fox News, of course). They are right about 95% of the things they cover. Just because they’re not reporting on the stolen 2020 election, revealing the dangers and the nefarious agenda behind the Covid jabs, or taking a more direct avenue of attack against the Cultural Marxism that’s spreading across our country doesn’t mean these sites are useless. They still fight against abortion, gun control, open borders, Critical Race Theory, and the various other non-taboo topics of interest to American patriots.
It’s easy to see who is beholden to Big Tech and who isn’t. If they’re running Google ads, they’re beholden. Google will not allow ads to be run on my sites, The Liberty Daily, The Gateway Pundit, or any of the other conservative news outlets that are telling the truth about controversial topics.
You can see who’s running Google ads by hovering over the ads on an article and seeing where the click leads before clicking on it. On most browsers, this is found at the bottom left corner. Once you click, you’ll be redirected to the advertiser itself, but if you hover and see “www.googleadservices.com,” then obviously the site is running Google ads.
Some “conservative” sites aren’t running Google ads, but are still playing the game through Facebook. Just like Google, Facebook won’t allow “disinformation” topics. They are a bit more loose than Google which will just shut your site off completely. Facebook is more subtle. They’ll take down or fact-check individual pieces of content. They send warnings over time and suppress visibility of a page that’s sharing what they perceive as “disinformation.”
With Google, we can see who’s playing ball by who’s running their ads. With Facebook, it’s not so simple. A good, truth-telling news site can still do well on Facebook by simply not sharing stories on their page that cover taboo topics. Facebook only hits pages based on what they share. Google indexes the entire website.
The point is, just because a news site does well on Facebook doesn’t necessarily mean they’re beholden to them. They’re just choosing to self-censor certain topics from being shared, but at least they’re still writing the stories and getting the truth out through other means. I’m okay with this, though I don’t practice it myself.
By no means am I trying to “expose” conservative news outlets who are beholden to Big Tech tyrants. It’s still a free country and I’m not going to condemn those who are playing the game as best they can. I just want my readers and listeners to be aware of why the taboo topics are not nearly as widespread in coverage as other “safe” issues.
We need to continue to spread the truth. It’s important to make the distinction between your average conservative news outlet that’s only sharing some of the truth and the alternative media sites who are fearless enough to share all of it.
I still visit sites that I know are compromised by Big Tech because of the topics they cover that aren’t taboo. But let’s not base the importance of stories over how much coverage they’re getting from conservative sites. The Covid jabs, for example, aren’t safe and effective simply because most conservative sites refuse to acknowledge their inefficacy or inherent dangers.
Whenever I post about them, I always get emails or comments saying, “If this was really a problem, ________ or ________ would be talking about it.” No, that’s simply not the case. Just because your favorite site or pundit isn’t discussing it doesn’t mean it’s not an issue. It just means they’ve been warned off from talking about it by the Big Tech tyrants who are holding them to account.
We saw an example of this in 2020 when Newt Gingrich was scolded live on Fox News for talking about George Soros.
Newt Gingrich: "The number one problem in almost all the cities is George Soros-elected, left-wing, antipolice pro-criminal district attorneys…"
Fox hos: "I’m not sure we need to bring George Soros into this."
Newt: "Okay… So, it’s verboten?"

As long as conservative journalists are fighting the good fight, I’m okay with them. It’s just important to know some are fighting harder than others, and many are barely fighting at all.

Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.
