    Surge Summary: Focus on the Family has been banned by Twitter for its comments about a Biden administration nominee. Twitter accused them of posting “hateful content”; but it really was just the “unwoke” truth.

    Our friends at Focus on the Family were recently banned by Twitter.  What was their offense?  According to Twitter, they were promoting “hateful content.”  But I can assure you that is not true.

    As long time readers of this daily report know, I am very familiar with Focus on the Family.  Founded by my good friend Dr. James Dobson, Focus has worked for decades to promote strong families and healthy relationships.

    After leaving the Reagan White House, I served for a time as a senior vice president of Focus on the Family and as president of the Family Research Council, which was affiliated with Focus.  So, I can say with complete confidence that Focus does not promote hate.

    No, what got Focus banned from Twitter was that it dared to tell the truth.  In a tweet mentioning Dr. Rachel Levin, Joe Biden’s nominee to be assistant secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, Focus noted “Dr. Levin is a transgender woman, that is, a man who believes he is a woman.”

    That is simply a statement of fact.  It is the truth.  But that truth was deemed “hateful content” by Twitter, which rejected Focus’s appeal and has refused to explain how its statement could be appropriately rephrased.

    But this is the upside down world of the left, where speaking the truth can often get you banned.  Of course, the left and the Big Tech tyrants of tolerance are determined to marginalize Focus, but I encourage them to keep fighting for faith, family and freedom!
