The well-orchestrated undermining of our First Amendment right to free speech and expression by Israel and Zionist big money lobby groups and individuals claimed another victim this past week: Briahna Joy Gray, co-host on The Hill morning news program.

Journalist Glenn Greenwald, of System Update, interviewed Gray to get her account of her firing. She provides important background and context to her abrupt firing.

Greenwald reviews several other firings of journalists for running counter to the officially-approved Israel narrative. Attacks on independent journalism and our First Amendment free speech rights is existential because without free speech none of our other rights are safe.

Speak up for your rights, or expect them to be eliminated.
