On The Jimmy Dore Show, Host of Empire Files Abby Martin and producer Mike Prysner discuss the attack on their show and their network TeleSUR by the U.S. government.

Due to sanctions imposed by the current administration, Empire Files is now being forced to ask for support from viewers and is promoting a GoFundMe and Patreon to ensure that their show and their message continues.

As Dore explores, censorship of TeleSUR extends beyond the government into the capitalist industry, with Facebook removing and censoring the TeleSUR Facebook page twice in just one year. Abby adds that the warnings and censorship extend to both Twitter and YouTube.

After a coordinated assault against voices challenging US imperialism, Trump’s sanctions have effectively shut down Empire Files. Please help us keep going, there’s much more work to do!

From America’s Lawyer with Mike Papantonio on RT America: 

“Journalist and Host of Empire Files, Abby Martin discusses how U.S sanctions against Venezuela have intensified under the Trump administration, and how these sanctions have not just weakened the country’s economy but have deprived millions of viewpoints questioning U.S policies abroad.”
