072725 Denounce Conservative Attacks on Media Matters

Conservative politicians and Elon Musk are trying to silence Media Matters — and Congress is doing nothing to stop it.

Here’s what’s happening:

  • After Media Matters exposed extremist content on Musk’s platform, Elon Musk and his allies responded with lawsuits, threats, and public attacks

  • Now, the FTC — packed with Trump appointees — is demanding internal documents in a clear act of political retaliation

  • Even after courts blocked similar efforts in Texas and Missouri, the pressure campaign continues

This is about more than one watchdog — it’s about whether journalists can speak truth to power without fear of retribution.

In solidarity,
