Google temporarily suspended conservative talk show host Dan Bongino’s website, Bongino.com, from its ads service, a company spokesperson confirmed to the Daily Caller News Foundation on Friday.
“We have strict publisher policies in place that explicitly prohibit misleading and harmful content around the COVID-19 pandemic and demonstrably false claims about our elections,” the spokesperson said. “When publishers persistently breach our policies we stop serving Google ads on their sites. Publishers can always appeal a decision once they have addressed any violating content.”
The spokesperson added that while Google would not disclose the specific offending content on Bongino.com, the website had been subject to frequent reviews and Google had flagged content in violation of its policies.
The suspension follows YouTube, which is owned by Google, electing to permanently ban Bongino and delete his YouTube accounts from its platform Wednesday over repeated violations of its policies. One of Bongino’s YouTube channels had initially been suspended for posting content that questioned the efficacy of masks for preventing the spread of COVID-19.
The Bongino Report Twitter account posted a tweet Friday mocking Google for the ban, tweeting that Bongino and his colleagues “deeply appreciate your efforts to try & silence us.”
The suspension was celebrated by Nandini Jammi, co-founder of Check My Ads, a left-wing activist group that works to demonetize conservative sites.
“Holy shit, we did it!!! Dan Bongino’s website has been kicked off @Googleads,” Jammi tweeted Friday. “It’s a final, devastating blow to his ad-funded business model.”

Leftwingers who praise the crushing of free speech will eventually pay a steep price.
Did anyone listen to Dan’s explanation of what he did and why. BRAVO Dan ! He basically told YouTube to shove it because he already has a larger following on Rumble. YouTube now appears to be a day late and a dollar short in trying to hurt Bongino. Because of his standing in the alternative media community, this is a big deal that we hope will escalate into billions joining alternative video sharing sites rather than use YouTube.
The two heads, one of each of both YouTube and Google can almost be considered criminally insane in their approach to following the dictates of the Deep State in censoring anyone who does not follow their agenda to force compliance of EVERYONE !
DOES THE NAZI SS RING ANY BELLS WITH YOU DEMONRATS ?
Really I feel America has become so dystopian, so unrecognizable.
And frankly it has always been the Globalist’s plan for it to be this way. So what then are we to do to rid ourselves of this plague ? They’re not going to just “ go away “ because we drive big trucks to a Capital, they will instead keep doubling down until guillotines take heads at FEMA camps and if we don’t act to take out their leadership well before then, well it’s obvious to me that we won’t or can’t so I guess any point I might make is moot regardless.
Unless of course my point is: GET RIGHT, GET JESUS
The people vs the totalitarian oligarch media/government – it’s not just a bad dream- it’s real
Google is a joke. They’re a mouthpiece for the globalist cabal that’s been killing people. Kick THEM out. Don’t use their rigged search engine, their intrusive chrome browser, Google Earth, or their agenda-driven youtube.
Gee, I did Nazi THAT coming. ;=)
it isnt googles or any other socialist media sites business to decide what is and isn’t discussable in public… you are a communications platform and as such you have no right to censor nor violate ANY AMERICANS first amendment rights.
the government needs to either MA BELL all these marxists companies, or shit them down.
