Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered the suspension of the Rumble video platform in Brazil.
President Donald Trump’s media group and Rumble Inc. filed an emergency motion in a U.S. federal court on Feb. 22 seeking a temporary restraining order against Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes after he ordered a nationwide suspension of Rumble’s video-sharing service in Brazil.
De Moraes issued the suspension order on Feb. 21, after Rumble Inc. and Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) filed a lawsuit against him on Feb. 19, accusing him of violating U.S. free speech laws when he ordered the shutdown of accounts belonging to a Brazilian user living in the United States.
TMTG operates the social media platform Truth Social, and Rumble Inc. owns the video-sharing platform Rumble. The justice alleged that Rumble Inc. had failed to comply with court orders to name a legal representative in Brazil and to remove the Rumble account of Allan dos Santos.

Robinson has prior convictions in the United Kingdom, and the U.S. is famously ruthless about border enforcement. Deportations are routine. Waivers like this are not.
The message is clear: American authorities no longer accept the British government’s treatment of political dissidents at face value. When speech is the alleged crime, the UK justice system no longer commands automatic trust.
America, at least for now, still understands that speech is not violence.
Canada does not.

That alone should tell you something.
Albertans are ready to have a serious conversation about the future of this province. They’re not waiting for permission, and they’re certainly not letting bad weather stand in their way.
Tonight, we’re back at it in Red Deer, and there’s still time to grab a last-minute ticket.
