At the end of "IT IS FINISHED"—Peter and Lydia Brimelow’s Update On VDARE’s Crucifixion By NYAG Letitia James—And What Happens Next. Peter Brimelow, speaking of the notorious Time gloatfest about the 2020 election said:

We were purged from YouTube and various other places in 2020. As it turned out that was part of a systematic campaign by the Democrat party to eliminate what they regard as pro-Trump voices … they actually openly admitted this … They said they put pressure on all these social media groups to cut off dissident voices and I guess we were one of them

About the Letitia James Lynching effort he said:

I wonder if that’s what’s shaping up here in which case of course it’s not just going to be VDARE that’s going to be blocked out it’s going to be a lot of other people.

Persuasive evidence is emerging that this is correct.

VDARE.com lost about half the Christmas “Giving Season” because after a heroic struggle our techies were overwhelmed and our credit card capability was blocked by cyber attack.

(We now do not have credit card capability also, but we hear that this is because of regulatory pressure on several banks.)

But we have had to shelter our main page behind a cumbersome link, saying:

[VDARE.com HAS BEEN FORCED TO INSTALL THIS GATEWAY PAGE TO PROTECT AGAINST REPEATED CYBER ATTACKS CLICK ON THE LINK ABOVE TO ACCESS OUR CONTENT]

Also our E-check capability (click on contribution amount on the donate page) has been severely hampered by huge numbers of fraudulent donations. Banks charge for submitting dud checks. (Notice to Bad Guys: We can spot them! But it takes time.)

So we were interested to see that Americans for Legal Immigration (ALIPAC) is having the same experience.

Site outage, Progress update, & battle plans arrived in my mailbox on April 8th because I subscribe to ALIPAC’s email alerts.

This morning, ALIPAC.us was hit by so many bots from Asia that some of our users had trouble accessing our posts and archives. Overall, our web traffic is up with the new projects, upgrades, and repairs, and we are taking steps to try to prevent any scan-bot overloads in the future.

At present, ALIPAC’s website seems to be working.

As a PAC, ALIPAC can do different things than VDARE.com. In particular, they can endorse and, deliciously, unendorse Congresscritters.

We gratefully remember William Gheen's defense of us in 2005 (ALIPAC's Gheen Refutes FR's JimRob), when the NeoCons controlling Bush ’43 were ludicrously trying to prevent any consideration of differences in ethnic voting propensities.

However, the question for Immigration Patriots to consider now is:

If purported Immigration Restraint Operation are not experiencing this kind of pressure, can they be any good?
