YouTube to start bringing back creators banned for COVID-19 and election misinformation

YouTube will offer creators a way to rejoin the platform if they were banned for violating COVID-19 and election misinformation policies no longer in effect, parent company Alphabet announced Tuesday in a House Judiciary Committee letter.

YouTube phased out its election misinformation policy in 2023 and COVID-19 restrictions in 2024. Among banned creators was Dan Bongino, now FBI deputy director. The move reflects broader tech industry content moderation rollbacks.

House Republicans pressured tech companies to reverse Biden-era policies, accusing the administration of coercing inappropriate content censorship. Alphabet said the decision reflected commitment to free speech and conservative voices on the platform.

On the National Mall this morning, a new satirical statue is up celebrating Jeffrey Epstein and Trump's "friendship" in honor of National Friendship Month.

In Honor of Friendship Month

We celebrate the long-lasting bond between President Donald J. Trump and his "closest friend" Jeffery Epstein.

Voice Over: There Must Be More To Life Than Having Everything.

TRUMP: Yes. There is. but I won't tell you what it is.
EPSTEIN: Nor will I, since I also know what it is.
TRUMP: We have certain things in common, Jeffery.
EPSTEIN: Yes, we do, come to think of it.
TRUMP: A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday -- and may every day be another wonderful secret.
EPSTEIN: As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you.

Signed Donald

From a post seen elsewhere August 20, 2025:

You will not see this on your news tonight:

The US Secretary of Defense is authorizing DOD civilian employees at any grade level to take a temporary, paid "voluntary force" assignment with DHS and ICE. The temporary roles would help to arrest, detain, and deport people. The posting is open for a year:

usajobs.gov/job/842956200

In case not clear: this is a green light for a domestic immigration control agency to expand its workforce by removing employees from a global military agency. This is NOT how Congress allocates budget for agencies, workforce, salaries, and activities, as provided in the US Constitution, Article I.
