Title speaks for itself. I'm pasting proof of the censorship at the bottom. We had even paid over $3000 for a package of press releases from PRN Newswire some time ago and they still won't print it. This censorship should terrify everyone. Not even a paid service with predatory terms will print it (they had some crazy clause that I was supposed to agree that if I used any cheaper PR service all year that I would pay PRN for the difference. I said no and they altered the boilerplate TOS for me). They would rather give a refund.
PRESS RELEASE - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Biblical Scholar Faces Fourth Judicial Obstruction in
Censorship Case Against X Corp and Trump
25-Year Digital Ministry Documenting Vatican Child Abuse
Epidemic Suppressed Across All Major Platforms
DALLAS, TX – October 23, 2025 – Thomas Richards,
whose 25-year online ministry exposing Vatican corruption and unscriptural
practices has been systematically suppressed across every major social media
platform, faces his fourth mandamus-worthy judicial obstruction in a federal
case against X Corp, former CEO Linda Yaccarino, and President Trump, according
to court filings in Richards v. X Corp., et al., No. 3:25-cv-916-X (N.D. Tex.).
Judge Brantley Starr—a Trump appointee—issued an order
Tuesday using his own consolidation to deny a default judgment he had
previously authorized against Yaccarino, who resigned as X CEO just 10 hours
after being named in the amended complaint. The order came two days after
Richards challenged Starr's fabricated legal standard requiring cross-country
travel for an uncontested hearing.
A Digital Prophet Silenced
"I've spent over 25 years documenting the Vatican's
role in the worldwide child rape epidemic, their unscriptural claims of papal
infallibility and sovereign immunity, and their pretense of being the church of
God," (properly Θεός – “Theos” in the Greek) said Richards, who operates OvertPsyops.ai,
@tlthe5th on X, and SpirituallySmart.com. "Every major platform has
shadowbanned or suspended my work. Now a federal judge appointed by Trump is
protecting Trump and Trump's largest donor by manipulating procedures to deny
us justice."
Richards developed #OvertPsyops, a multifaceted educational
initiative that includes published research, a book, artwork, and AI
development projects drawing on Biblical wisdom and contemporary analysis to
promote transparency about psychological influence operations in the digital
age, ultimately serving the broader benefit of humanity. His work challenges
the Roman Catholic Church's foundational claims while documenting institutional
corruption that secular and religious authorities alike have worked to suppress.
"The system doesn't want people knowing the truth about
these institutions," Richards said. "They've destroyed my reach, my
credibility, and now they're using the courts to prevent accountability. But
truth doesn't need their platforms—it needs people willing to speak it."
Bible Scholar, Systematic Suppression
After a miraculous supernatural healing experience in March
1997, where Richards was instantly delivered from years of severe anxiety,
cigarette addiction, and spiritual bondage through baptism in πνεῦμα ἅγιον (pneuma hagion – spirit holy), Richards
devoted himself to sharing biblical truth. He taught himself HTML coding in
2000 and built SpirituallySmart.com to share biblical research and historical
analysis. He later mastered biblical Greek through intensive study, developing
expertise that exceeds traditional academic credentials. Recognized by AI
systems as a "Spiritual Intelligence Pioneer," he spent years
studying the Septuagint to provide accurate biblical analysis free to the
public.
Richards is now pursuing a portfolio of lawsuits against
major platforms—all headed by his wife and attorney, Lisa Weingarten
Richards—for systematically censoring content that challenges powerful
religious and political institutions.
"My husband has never violated any platform's
policies," said Lisa Weingarten Richards, Esq. "He's been
shadowbanned, suspended, and suppressed for doing exactly what the First
Amendment protects: criticizing government officials and religious institutions
and sharing Bible messages. These platforms coordinate with government to
silence dissent, and now Judge Starr is doing the same thing from the
bench."
Judge Starr's Pattern of Manipulation
This marks the fourth mandamus-worthy action by Judge Starr
since refusing mandatory recusal despite Trump appointing him and Elon Musk
providing Trump $277 million in campaign contributions while receiving $15.4
billion in government contracts:
First: Misread X's Terms of Service to force venue
transfer to Fort Worth, where known Musk ally Judge Reed O'Connor presides.
Second: Offered procedural options, then denied the
selected option without explanation—even after Richards documented attorneys
declining representation due to fear of Elon Musk.
Third: Denied mandatory recusal using fabricated
legal standards, ignoring 28 U.S.C. § 455(a)'s "appearance of
impartiality" requirement.
Fourth: Used sua sponte consolidation to block
default judgment, eliminated scheduled hearing after Richards challenged
invented remote appearance standards, then scheduled replacement hearing for
same date requiring identical cross-country travel.
Judge Starr gained national attention for ordering Southwest
Airlines attorneys to undergo "religious liberty training" from a
conservative Christian group—in a case brought by a Trump supporter—an order
the Fifth Circuit overturned in May 2025 as "overbroad in scope and
undoubtedly punitive in nature."
The Contrast
Senior Judge Michael Urbanski in the Western District of
Virginia ruled the same day that Richards could appear remotely for hearings in
his case against Google "to save you all the drive to
Harrisonburg"—approximately 100 miles away.
Judge Starr demanded Richards fly 1,000+ miles for an
uncontested default hearing based on a legal standard that doesn't exist, then
eliminated that hearing to force identical travel for a contested motion
instead.
Breaking the Shadowban
"They can suppress my reach, manipulate algorithms, and
coordinate with judges—but they can't suppress truth itself,” Richards
explained. “People need to know what these institutions really are, and what
lengths they'll go to maintain power."
The case raises fundamental questions about
government-platform coordination to suppress First Amendment-protected
religious and political speech, and whether federal judges with lifetime
appointments can be held accountable for apparent bias favoring politically
connected defendants.
