Latest / The Ben Ferguson Podcast / Democrats DEMAND "Big tech oversight NOW", and plan to destroy Elon Musk financially for buying Twitter!
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Twitter has totally exploded the minds of liberals. They're angry,
- 0:06Speaker 1: they're furious. They're saying they're gonna boycott Twitter, just like
- 0:10Speaker 1: they claim they were gonna move to Canada if Donald
- 0:12Speaker 1: Trump won the election. Donald Trump won the election, they
- 0:14Speaker 1: didn't move. And now Democrats are actually coming out and
- 0:18Speaker 1: saying it's time to rein in big tech because they're
- 0:21Speaker 1: angry that big Tech may actually let the president of
- 0:23Speaker 1: the United States of America back on their platform. Now,
- 0:27Speaker 1: Donald Trump has already said that he's going to stay
- 0:29Speaker 1: on his own platform, that he's not going to go
- 0:31Speaker 1: back on Twitter doesn't matter, right, because this is the
- 0:34Speaker 1: big Boogeyman freak out moment. Quick reminder if you're listening

- 0:51Speaker 1: there are several takeaways from Twitter that you need to understand.
- 0:55Speaker 1: Let's start with Elon Musk and his tweet. He said
- 0:59Speaker 1: free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy. I
- 1:03Speaker 1: agree with that statement. I think most of you listening
- 1:06Speaker 1: would as well. That free speech is in fact the
- 1:08Speaker 1: bedrock of a functioning democracy. This is exactly why Elon
- 1:12Speaker 1: must decided by Twitter, because he saw what was happening
- 1:15Speaker 1: Babylon b which is a site that really made all
- 1:20Speaker 1: this happen, and the loss of power of the elites
- 1:24Speaker 1: on the left that wanted to destroy and silence every
- 1:27Speaker 1: conservative on Twitter and silence stories on Twitter, the stories
- 1:31Speaker 1: like Hunter Biden's laptop. It was the Babylon Bee that
- 1:35Speaker 1: was like the straw that broke the camel's back. The
- 1:39Speaker 1: Babylon Bee was a satirical site, conservative even some would
- 1:43Speaker 1: describe as a Christian site. Okay, a conservative Christian site
- 1:49Speaker 1: that made funny headlines, and they decided to make a
- 1:55Speaker 1: transgendered woman man of the Year, mocking how Time magazine
- 2:00Speaker 1: had made that Biden administration official woman of the Year
- 2:03Speaker 1: even though it was a dude. There was a dude
- 2:05Speaker 1: for decades and decades, forty plus years, and all of
- 2:07Speaker 1: a sudden ssides he wants to become a check So
- 2:10Speaker 1: they put this up there. Well, they said that went
- 2:12Speaker 1: against the guidelines of Twitter and hate speech and harassment
- 2:16Speaker 1: and everything else, So they got rid of the Babylon Bee.
- 2:20Speaker 1: Now without that happening, Elon Musk probably would not have
- 2:24Speaker 1: actually bought Twitter, which is pretty crazy if you think
- 2:27Speaker 1: about it, And the reason why Elon Musk got involved
- 2:31Speaker 1: as he liked the Babylon being he thought, Wow, this
- 2:33Speaker 1: is really extreme. It's an unbelievably extreme to think that
- 2:39Speaker 1: you can silence people like the Babylon Bee, for example,
- 2:42Speaker 1: because of them doing something that's hilarious. They did something
- 2:47Speaker 1: that was funny, it was humorous. Now it was also
- 2:50Speaker 1: proving a point about how ridiculous people have become when
- 2:53Speaker 1: they start giving rewards for one of the year to
- 2:55Speaker 1: an actual dude. But think about the things that also
- 2:59Speaker 1: could get you and from Twitter. I tweeted many of
- 3:03Speaker 1: them over the last twenty four hours just to prove
- 3:05Speaker 1: a point of what freedom of speech actually looks like.
- 3:08Speaker 1: One of those things that will get you banned if
- 3:10Speaker 1: you talked about ivermectin, if you even tweeted the word
- 3:12Speaker 1: ivermectin or ivermectin works like things like that. Game over instantly, right, done,
- 3:18Speaker 1: can't say that, can't do that, can't talk about it.
- 3:21Speaker 1: This is something you're not allowed to do in a discussion. No,
- 3:24Speaker 1: not allowed, absolutely not no. All right, So that happens.
- 3:29Speaker 1: You can tweet that now because Elon Musk owns Twitter
- 3:33Speaker 1: and not the crazies. You couldn't tweet that there's only
- 3:36Speaker 1: two genders without people coming after you, right, That was
- 3:40Speaker 1: another problem. You're not allowed to say that there are
- 3:42Speaker 1: only two genders. Now you can tweet that. These are
- 3:46Speaker 1: basic things you can't tweet out. Or you couldn't tweet
- 3:49Speaker 1: out that only women can have babies. They would actually
- 3:53Speaker 1: ban you for tweeting that out as well. These are
- 3:55Speaker 1: just some of the things that would happen, right, These
- 3:58Speaker 1: are some of the things that would take place that
- 4:00Speaker 1: people said that you couldn't say, things that you couldn't do.
- 4:04Speaker 1: And it's incredibly frustrating to witness this and to see
- 4:09Speaker 1: this happen in real time now. There was also an
- 4:11Speaker 1: incredible amount of shadow banning that was going on right.
- 4:14Speaker 1: Shadow banning is where a guy like me can't No
- 4:17Speaker 1: one sees my tweets anymore. So if I tweet it,
- 4:20Speaker 1: it's just like you know, big tree falls in the force,
- 4:22Speaker 1: no one's rounded it make a sound. In fact, in
- 4:24Speaker 1: the last twenty four hours, I picked up more Twitter
- 4:26Speaker 1: followers than I have in the last two years combine Now,
- 4:29Speaker 1: all this started about five years ago when Democrat to
- 4:32Speaker 1: Twitter realized they could actually silence and shut people up.
- 4:36Speaker 1: And that's exactly what they decided to do. They decided
- 4:38Speaker 1: to silence and shut people down, shut them up, and
- 4:40Speaker 1: either cancel their accounts, or they would just make it
- 4:45Speaker 1: where your accounts you couldn't find them. Like if you
- 4:47Speaker 1: went to Twitter two days ago and try to put
- 4:49Speaker 1: in Ben Ferguson, you had to scroll to find my account.
- 4:52Speaker 1: It wouldn't even auto populate it because they didn't want
- 4:56Speaker 1: you to be able to find me. And I'm not
- 4:59Speaker 1: the only one, right, I'm special. There's thousands and thousands
- 5:02Speaker 1: and thousands of other conservatives. And then they banned stories.
- 5:05Speaker 1: They banned the New York Times, Yeah, the New York
- 5:08Speaker 1: Post story about Hunter Biden's laptop, saying you couldn't share it, right,
- 5:11Speaker 1: banned their account. Wouldn't allow that the biggest newspaper in
- 5:14Speaker 1: America to even share it, And that's not freedom of speech.
- 5:18Speaker 1: And so Elon must said, all right, I gotta buy
- 5:20Speaker 1: this thing. And it was the Babylon b Again, this
- 5:23Speaker 1: is the funniest part of this whole entire thing is
- 5:26Speaker 1: it was actually the babylon Be that made this happen.
- 5:29Speaker 1: They were the straw that broke the camel's back. It
- 5:31Speaker 1: was Babylon Bee folks, a satirical site that woke up
- 5:39Speaker 1: and finally made someone like Email and Musko. This is
- 5:41Speaker 1: flat out wrong. Wow, this is totally going against our
- 5:44Speaker 1: freedom and our democracy and what we believe in and
- 5:46Speaker 1: what I believe in in free speech. So you go
- 5:49Speaker 1: back to his actual statement, and his statement was very clear.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and
- 5:56Speaker 1: Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to
- 6:00Speaker 1: the future of humanity are debated. Now, now he's also
- 6:02Speaker 1: making this statement not just about America. He's making this
- 6:04Speaker 1: about the world. And I want you to think about
- 6:06Speaker 1: the isletoa of Iran has a Twitter account. Vitamir Putin
- 6:09Speaker 1: has a Twitter account. Donald Trump doesn't. Venezuela leader in
- 6:14Speaker 1: that country has a Twitter account. China and their leaders
- 6:18Speaker 1: have Twitter accounts. They allow people around the world that
- 6:22Speaker 1: kill people on a daily basis, imprison people, human trafficking,
- 6:26Speaker 1: sex trafficking, child labor, genocide, to have Twitter accounts. But
- 6:30Speaker 1: Donald Trump can Elon must understood. This is a threat
- 6:33Speaker 1: to free speech because free speech is a bedrock of
- 6:35Speaker 1: a functioning democracy. Must also said, I also want to
- 6:39Speaker 1: make Twitter better than ever by enhancing the products with
- 6:42Speaker 1: new features, making the algorithms open source, so you know
- 6:46Speaker 1: how the algorithms work, not that so that you can't
- 6:50Speaker 1: pick winners and losers behind the scenes. Because he says,
- 6:53Speaker 1: I want to increase trusts, that's important. He also said
- 6:56Speaker 1: he wants to defeat the spam bots. Now this is
- 7:00Speaker 1: very significant. Let me explain why many times liberals will
- 7:04Speaker 1: get people together. Okay, liberals will get people together and
- 7:09Speaker 1: they'll use bots to turn a fake controversy into something
- 7:12Speaker 1: that starts to trend. Also, many liberals out there have
- 7:18Speaker 1: fake followers. They get prominence on social media. They seem
- 7:23Speaker 1: important on social media because of how many followers they have.
- 7:29Speaker 1: And now what we've been seeing over the last twenty
- 7:31Speaker 1: four hours is a lot of the liberal Democrats are
- 7:35Speaker 1: losing tens of thousands and some are losing hundreds of
- 7:39Speaker 1: thousands of followers. Now why are they losing all these followers.
- 7:42Speaker 1: It's very simple. They're losing these followers because they're fake.
- 7:47Speaker 1: They were never real. And what he's saying is I'm
- 7:51Speaker 1: going to authenticate people and make sure that you're a
- 7:53Speaker 1: real human being. I'm not going to allow for fake
- 7:55Speaker 1: controversies right to pop up, or or for people to
- 7:59Speaker 1: ruin people's lives using fake accounts. You're gonna be validated.
- 8:03Speaker 1: You're gonna either be real or you're not gonna be real.
- 8:05Speaker 1: It's going to be one or the other. You're not
- 8:07Speaker 1: going to be We're not going to allow for all
- 8:09Speaker 1: this fake crap to happen on my platform anymore, which
- 8:12Speaker 1: again is absolutely amazing. It's exactly what should happen. I
- 8:17Speaker 1: think it is unbelievable. I think it's it's it's a beautiful,
- 8:20Speaker 1: beautiful thing to happen, and it's an important thing I
- 8:24Speaker 1: would also say to happen. I think it's very important
- 8:27Speaker 1: that you have honesty and that you have transparency in
- 8:30Speaker 1: all of this. I think it's important that people understand
- 8:35Speaker 1: that when you are out there on Twitter and you're
- 8:37Speaker 1: fighting these fights, in these wars, that at least you're
- 8:40Speaker 1: not being silenced by an algorithm. Now, liberals are freaking
- 8:45Speaker 1: out right now over this, and I'm going to play
- 8:46Speaker 1: one of them for you at MSNBC. This is a
- 8:48Speaker 1: host at MSNBC that is literally describing what Twitter has
- 8:52Speaker 1: been doing all along to conservatives. I mean, there's truly
- 8:57Speaker 1: nothing funnier than watching an MSNB ranting about what Elon
- 9:02Speaker 1: must Quote could do to Twitter and actually giving the
- 9:06Speaker 1: perfect description of how Twitter has actually operated for the
- 9:11Speaker 1: last five years since Donald Trump was running for president.
- 9:14Speaker 1: Because everything you're about to hear from this MSNBC host
- 9:18Speaker 1: is literally what Twitter has done to conservatives and people
- 9:23Speaker 1: they don't like. Listen, if you own all of Twitter
- 9:25Speaker 1: or Facebook or what have you, you you don't have to
- 9:28Speaker 1: explain yourself. You don't even have to be transparent. You
- 9:30Speaker 1: could secretly ban one party's candidate or all of its candidates,
- 9:35Speaker 1: all of its nominees, or you could just secretly turn
- 9:38Speaker 1: down the reach of their stuff and turn up the
- 9:40Speaker 1: reach of something else, and the rest of us might
- 9:42Speaker 1: not even find out about it till after the election.
- 9:46Speaker 1: Elon must says this is all to help people because
- 9:48Speaker 1: he is just a free speech philosophically clear, open minded helper.
- 9:55Speaker 1: That's exactly what Elon Musk is. But everything that the
- 9:59Speaker 1: Democrat is subscribed as a terror is a worry is
- 10:02Speaker 1: exactly what that Twitter had been doing to conservatives like myself. Now,
- 10:06Speaker 1: there were some conservatives that decided, I'm not playing on
- 10:10Speaker 1: this Twitter platform anymore. And some of those conservatives, like
- 10:14Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson, for example, and a good friend of mine,
- 10:17Speaker 1: Mark Levin, said, we have a big enough platform, think
- 10:21Speaker 1: goodness that we don't have to play on your platform
- 10:23Speaker 1: to reach our audience. And they decided to boycott Twitter
- 10:27Speaker 1: because of what they were doing too much people that
- 10:29Speaker 1: were much smaller than them, right, what they were doing
- 10:32Speaker 1: to smaller concerns that were trying to grow and reach
- 10:34Speaker 1: more people. And they're now back on the platform. And
- 10:38Speaker 1: the reason why they're back on the platform is very
- 10:41Speaker 1: very very very clear. Right. The reason why they're on
- 10:44Speaker 1: the platform now is because they're like, Okay, it's a
- 10:46Speaker 1: free speech platform. It's now fair again for both sides
- 10:50Speaker 1: to be able to give their viewpoints. The game is
- 10:53Speaker 1: no longer rigged. Why do you think the White House
- 10:55Speaker 1: Press Secretary Jen Psaki is freaking out about Elon Muss
- 10:59Speaker 1: taking over Twitter. Why do you think that so many
- 11:02Speaker 1: Democrats are now saying that they want to rain in,
- 11:05Speaker 1: as they put it, big Tech. It's because now they
- 11:08Speaker 1: don't control these people anymore. They don't get to control
- 11:11Speaker 1: the content, they don't get to bury the Hunter by
- 11:13Speaker 1: the laptop story anymore. They don't get to send emails
- 11:16Speaker 1: to people that work at Twitter saying silence this candidate,
- 11:19Speaker 1: silence its Republican silence as talk shows, which they've been doing.
- 11:23Speaker 1: And I hope that Elon Musk will expose all of that.
- 11:26Speaker 1: But listen to the White House when I asked about
- 11:28Speaker 1: Elon Musk and Twitter takeover the breaking news Twitter agreeing
- 11:32Speaker 1: to let Elon Musk purchase get a response to that,
- 11:38Speaker 1: And does the White House have any concern that this
- 11:41Speaker 1: new agreement might have Present Trump back on them? Well,
- 11:45Speaker 1: I'm not going to comment on a specific By the way,
- 11:47Speaker 1: I love this, And as the White House have any
- 11:48Speaker 1: concern about possibly letting Donald Trump back on the platform,
- 11:52Speaker 1: why would the White House have concern about a former
- 11:54Speaker 1: president being on the platform unless they want to silence conservatives.
- 11:56Speaker 1: You get my point right, This should be none of
- 11:59Speaker 1: their concern President United States of America, former president should
- 12:02Speaker 1: be able to be on all social media platforms. He
- 12:06Speaker 1: shouldn't be banned from any of them. I'll go back
- 12:09Speaker 1: and quote Elon Musk's very first statement, very first line quote.
- 12:13Speaker 1: Free speech is a bedrock of a functioning democracy. And
- 12:16Speaker 1: Twitter is a digital town hall square where matters vital
- 12:20Speaker 1: the future of humanity are debated. So the White House
- 12:22Speaker 1: that they truly believe in free speech, which they don't,
- 12:24Speaker 1: would have said we love Donald Trump coming back on
- 12:28Speaker 1: we disagree with them, but we think that we are
- 12:29Speaker 1: the greatest country in the world, and we believe that
- 12:31Speaker 1: freedom of speech is important, and we believe that freedom
- 12:33Speaker 1: of speech is vital to this country. And the exchange
- 12:36Speaker 1: of ideas, like if you believe in freedom and democracy,
- 12:39Speaker 1: that's what and that's what the White House is supposed
- 12:41Speaker 1: to believe in. No matter who's the president. Clearly that's
- 12:44Speaker 1: changed in this country. That's what you would say. But
- 12:46Speaker 1: listen to Jensaki a transaction what I can tell you
- 12:50Speaker 1: as a general matter, no matter who owns or runs Twitter.
- 12:54Speaker 1: The President has long been concerned about the power of
- 12:56Speaker 1: large social media platforms, what they have, the power they
- 13:00Speaker 1: have over our everyday lives. Has long argued the tech
- 13:02Speaker 1: platforms must be held accountable for the harms they cause.
- 13:06Speaker 1: He's been a strong supporter of fundamental reforms to achieve
- 13:09Speaker 1: that goal, including reforms to Section to thirty, enacting antitrust reforms,
- 13:13Speaker 1: requiring more transparency and more. And he's encouraged that there's
- 13:18Speaker 1: bipartisan interest in Congress. WHOA, So let's get this straight.
- 13:24Speaker 1: As soon as the rig game stops working in your favor. Now,
- 13:28Speaker 1: Democrats are coming out in the White House saying we
- 13:31Speaker 1: need to reign in big tech. When big tech was
- 13:34Speaker 1: blocking everyone, right, when big tech was silencing everyone that
- 13:40Speaker 1: was your political opponent, when you could send an email
- 13:43Speaker 1: to get people silenced, you had no problem with it.
- 13:48Speaker 1: But now because you don't control Twitter anymore, and Twitter
- 13:53Speaker 1: very well may expose how corrupt the Democratic Party is.
- 13:56Speaker 1: The White House is other Democrats who are clearly trying
- 13:59Speaker 1: to hurt people's lives, destroy people's lives, destroy their life's work,
- 14:05Speaker 1: shut them up, and silence them at all costs. Now,
- 14:09Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're like, yep, we probably need
- 14:11Speaker 1: to rain and big Tech. That was a quick one eighty,
- 14:15Speaker 1: wasn't it for this White House? I mean even for
- 14:17Speaker 1: this White House? That was a quick one eighty. This
- 14:20Speaker 1: White House is terrified of what's going to happen now
- 14:24Speaker 1: that the game is not rigged. We'll get the last election.
- 14:28Speaker 1: And there's new breaking news also on Google, and we're
- 14:31Speaker 1: going to talk about that in a moment, because now
- 14:33Speaker 1: Google's in trouble because there's a new study that's come
- 14:36Speaker 1: out showing that Republican candidate and GOP and conservative fundraising
- 14:42Speaker 1: emails are going to your spam account on Gmail and
- 14:47Speaker 1: they're sending them to spam over eighty percent of the time,
- 14:50Speaker 1: whereas with Democrats who are trying to raise money for
- 14:53Speaker 1: their campaigns, candidates and causes, it goes to a spam
- 14:58Speaker 1: account about eight percent of the time. If you've got
- 15:03Speaker 1: a Gmail account, you might want to pay attention and
- 15:05Speaker 1: stop using them, because they are purposely making sure that
- 15:09Speaker 1: there are certain emails that are conservative in nature that
- 15:13Speaker 1: you never see that go to your spam account. They
- 15:15Speaker 1: block them and mark them as spam, and that could
- 15:18Speaker 1: be costing conservative candidates an insane amount of money. When
- 15:24Speaker 1: I say, by the way, an insane amount of money,
- 15:25Speaker 1: we're talking about hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars
- 15:28Speaker 1: and fundraising that may have disappeared because the emails disappeared
- 15:32Speaker 1: because of Google. Now I'm curious, as the White House
- 15:36Speaker 1: Press Secretary gonna quote rain that in right, is the
- 15:40Speaker 1: White House Press secretary gonna really look at that and
- 15:42Speaker 1: go Yep, we need to rain that in. Of course not.
- 15:46Speaker 1: She's not gonna rain that in. Why would you. There's
- 15:48Speaker 1: no reason to rain that in. If you rain that in,
- 15:53Speaker 1: all that would do is hurt you because the game
- 15:56Speaker 1: is rigged. It's rigged against you, which brings me to
- 15:58Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson. Tugger Carlson last night, and this was hysterical.
- 16:04Speaker 1: He said, we have insider video of what's happening right
- 16:07Speaker 1: now at the Twitter headquarters, and then he showed a
- 16:10Speaker 1: video with music, sad music of all the people at
- 16:14Speaker 1: the Clinton campaign headquarters on November the eight, twenty sixteen,
- 16:18Speaker 1: when they realized that Hillary Clinton was losing the presidency
- 16:21Speaker 1: to Donald Trump, crying, looking and dismayed, hugging and crying
- 16:25Speaker 1: and boo hooing, And then he came back on the
- 16:29Speaker 1: screen He's like, oh, loops are bad. Wrong video. And
- 16:31Speaker 1: his point was this is if you are at Twitter
- 16:35Speaker 1: losing your mind, which we're seeing that they are the
- 16:37Speaker 1: people that work there losing their minds, and they're so afraid,
- 16:40Speaker 1: by the way, Twitter is so afraid that people within
- 16:42Speaker 1: the company are going to go rogue that they've now
- 16:44Speaker 1: had to set up protections to make sure that people
- 16:48Speaker 1: don't go rogue inside of Twitter. Twitter has now locked
- 16:52Speaker 1: their source code to stop their own employees from unauthorized changes.
- 16:57Speaker 1: Because Elon Must bought the company literally just hours after
- 17:03Speaker 1: the forty four billion dollars bid from Tessa CEO Musk
- 17:06Speaker 1: was accepted by the Twitter shareholders, the social media company
- 17:10Speaker 1: was forced to lock changes to its source code to
- 17:13Speaker 1: prevent enraged leftists inside of their own company from making
- 17:17Speaker 1: regulatory unauthorized changes to the platform. According to Bloomberg, which
- 17:23Speaker 1: cited unnamed sources multiple sources, the step was taken to
- 17:28Speaker 1: ensure that disgruntled employees did not take their wrath out
- 17:33Speaker 1: on on the social media platform. Quote. Twitter impose the
- 17:37Speaker 1: temporary band to keep employees who may be miffed about
- 17:41Speaker 1: the deal from going rogue. According to some of the
- 17:44Speaker 1: top people on Twitter that leaked this, many of the
- 17:46Speaker 1: company's employees have been agitated about the idea of Must
- 17:49Speaker 1: taking charge and what changes may come. Twitter will not
- 17:54Speaker 1: allow updates the platform unless they are business critical. Any
- 17:58Speaker 1: such changes will have to be approved by the vice
- 18:00Speaker 1: president of the company. The company is now a private
- 18:04Speaker 1: entity totally under the control of Mosque. There is reportedly
- 18:07Speaker 1: no longer a board of directors, so Twitter source code
- 18:12Speaker 1: is locked down and make it harder for employees to
- 18:14Speaker 1: make unauthorized changes the platform because there's so many liberal
- 18:17Speaker 1: whack jobs working there they couldn't take the risk. Literally,
- 18:21Speaker 1: they say, Twitter employees are having actual breakdowns. So let's
- 18:25Speaker 1: go to Tucker Carlson. He comes out of that video saying,
- 18:28Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. Wait, but that was a Clinton campaign
- 18:30Speaker 1: headquarters in twenty sixteen where everybody was crying, not the
- 18:32Speaker 1: Twitter headquarters. He's obviously saying that one and the same, right,
- 18:36Speaker 1: and then he has this to say about Twitter. Sorry,
- 18:39Speaker 1: wrong tea, but the very same idea. What you just
- 18:42Speaker 1: saw was the collective grief of people who thought they
- 18:46Speaker 1: were going to be fully in charge, who totally believed
- 18:49Speaker 1: they'd be able to rule without limit. You're watching those
- 18:52Speaker 1: people learn that actually other people get to talk to
- 18:58Speaker 1: and that realization is rushing to them. It's the one
- 19:01Speaker 1: thing they fear, and that tells you everything about why
- 19:04Speaker 1: those people should never be near power. People who want
- 19:08Speaker 1: a monopoly on speech and thought hate Elon Musk not
- 19:13Speaker 1: because he's a racist, he's not, but because they can't
- 19:17Speaker 1: control him. They hate him because he persists in saying
- 19:21Speaker 1: things like this, But why why make that offer? Oh so, um, Well,
- 19:27Speaker 1: I think it's very important for that to be an
- 19:31Speaker 1: inclusive arena for free speech. My strong intuitive sense is
- 19:38Speaker 1: that having a public platform that is maximally trusted and
- 19:44Speaker 1: and broadly inclusive is extremely important to the future of civilization.
- 19:52Speaker 1: But you've you've described yourself. I don't care about the
- 19:54Speaker 1: economics at all. So free speech is extremely important a civilization.
- 20:01Speaker 1: Are you triggered by that? It's often hard to know
- 20:04Speaker 1: who's on what side so much lying who are the
- 20:07Speaker 1: good guys and who are the bad guys? Well, here's
- 20:10Speaker 1: a very clear, simple and unerring test. Who are the tyrants?
- 20:16Speaker 1: There anyone who is bothered by the idea that other
- 20:19Speaker 1: people might get to talk. That is an unfailing test.
- 20:24Speaker 1: It's one hundred percent accurate. Would you allow people who
- 20:27Speaker 1: disagree with you to talk? If you wouldn't, you were
- 20:31Speaker 1: a tyrant? And tonight the tyrants are grieving. In Congress,
- 20:35Speaker 1: Democrats made a last ditch bid to use their power
- 20:38Speaker 1: to intimidate Elon Musk into backing off. Congressman Catherine Clark
- 20:43Speaker 1: if Connecticut wrote this quote, if they can afford to
- 20:45Speaker 1: buy Twitter, they can afford to pay their fair share
- 20:47Speaker 1: and taxes. Retweet if you're ready to support Joe Biden's
- 20:50Speaker 1: billionaire minimum income tax exclamation point. But Sonny, it didn't.
- 20:56Speaker 1: Natural Review write a bunch of pieces the other day
- 20:58Speaker 1: saying it was wrong for Rod to say just to
- 21:00Speaker 1: use his power in Florida to punish a company. If
- 21:04Speaker 1: there's apps upset about this. All of a sudden, Democrats
- 21:08Speaker 1: are calling for any kind of higher taxes on the
- 21:13Speaker 1: big companies that fund their campaigns. Why because here's one
- 21:16Speaker 1: that may not fund their campaigns. Congresman Bonnie Watson Coleman
- 21:20Speaker 1: wrote this, if you can buy a major social media platform,
- 21:23Speaker 1: you can pay your fair share in taxes. Tax The
- 21:27Speaker 1: rich have no notice. This is all now about, Okay,
- 21:30Speaker 1: how do we hurt Elon Musk? How do we make
- 21:33Speaker 1: Elon must pay? How do we turn this venture into
- 21:36Speaker 1: a failure for him so that he realizes that he
- 21:40Speaker 1: is the worst person in the world. That's that's what
- 21:42Speaker 1: they're describing right here. You got to understand something about
- 21:48Speaker 1: this idea that we should punish Elon Musk if for
- 21:51Speaker 1: buying Twitter. Elon Musk said in one of his interviews
- 21:54Speaker 1: before he bought Twitter. This isn't about making money off Twitter.
- 21:57Speaker 1: This is about protecting free speech. Do I think that
- 22:00Speaker 1: Elon Musk can make money off Twitter? Yes I do.
- 22:02Speaker 1: I absolutely do. But he's not worried about it because
- 22:07Speaker 1: he's more worried about free speech. That's what seems to
- 22:11Speaker 1: matter to him. You know. Maggie Haberman, trying to Jedi
- 22:16Speaker 1: mind trick you on CNN, actually said they Twitter did
- 22:18Speaker 1: Trump a favor by banning him and actually hurt the Democrats,
- 22:21Speaker 1: she says, So they're saying, fine, bring him back. Like
- 22:23Speaker 1: they're trying to act like this ban of Donald Trump,
- 22:27Speaker 1: which somehow a bad thing for Democrats are and they
- 22:31Speaker 1: did Trump a favor. It was a good thing for Twitter.
- 22:34Speaker 1: Limiting free speech is actually good for the Republicans. That's
- 22:37Speaker 1: what they want you to believe. Now, Maggie, want to
- 22:39Speaker 1: ask you about Twitter. If we can't Elon Musk buying
- 22:41Speaker 1: Twitter for the lolo price at forty four billion dollars,
- 22:44Speaker 1: what does this mean for the former president Donald Trump,
- 22:47Speaker 1: who's put a lot of money into this whole new
- 22:49Speaker 1: social media platform. Will you go back to Twitter? So
- 22:52Speaker 1: a couple of things. I don't actually know how much
- 22:53Speaker 1: money he has put into that other social media platform.
- 22:56Speaker 1: I think somebody has put some money into it, and
- 22:57Speaker 1: it's this very problem played and we have all written
- 23:00Speaker 1: about this, so problems that he has fairly touched it.
- 23:03Speaker 1: I think he's posted on it once. He said yesterday
- 23:06Speaker 1: that or he has people put out yesterday that he's
- 23:08Speaker 1: not going to go back on Twitter, even with Elon
- 23:10Speaker 1: must buying it. Let's see whether that holds true in
- 23:13Speaker 1: a couple of months. I think it's very hard for him.
- 23:15Speaker 1: He has to say that because otherwise it craters that
- 23:18Speaker 1: deal from what the social media deal of his own,
- 23:20Speaker 1: which from which he stands to make money. That thing's
- 23:23Speaker 1: not going well. I tend to assume what he wants
- 23:25Speaker 1: us to be back on Twitter. But look, I think
- 23:27Speaker 1: that when you look at it politically, Republicans and Democrats
- 23:31Speaker 1: will both tell you that Twitter did Donald Trump a
- 23:34Speaker 1: favor and actually hurt Democrats by taking him off Twitter.
- 23:38Speaker 1: I love this, right, like this is the Jedi mind
- 23:40Speaker 1: trick crap that Democrats do. And they think and I
- 23:43Speaker 1: guess unseen, and they actually believe that their audience is
- 23:45Speaker 1: a stupid like they did him if they did him
- 23:47Speaker 1: a favor. So all you Republicans that have been shadow
- 23:50Speaker 1: band and banned, you actually owe us a big thank
- 23:53Speaker 1: you because we're the ones that have saved you from
- 23:57Speaker 1: yourselves by banning you. So you're welcome, right, you're welcome.
- 24:02Speaker 1: This is now their new response. Well, we did you
- 24:05Speaker 1: a favor, and now you're gonna have to go sit
- 24:08Speaker 1: in your own cesspool and you're gonna ruin your lives
- 24:11Speaker 1: because we were actually protecting you no longer. And then
- 24:16Speaker 1: other Democrats are like, well we're out, which brings me
- 24:20Speaker 1: back to Tucker Carlson's point, same point I've been saying
- 24:23Speaker 1: for months. They're angry because they've lost control. Yeah, they
- 24:31Speaker 1: definitely want to hurt Elon Musk now and he's now
- 24:35Speaker 1: publican to me number one, and they're gonna want to
- 24:37Speaker 1: bring him random in. They're gonna want to bring in
- 24:39Speaker 1: big tech and not really big tech. They don't want
- 24:41Speaker 1: to rain in Google for putting all Republican emails into spam,
- 24:45Speaker 1: right while all the Democrats make it into your in
- 24:48Speaker 1: your inbox. Now that they don't want to rain them in.
- 24:51Speaker 1: They don't want to rain in Facebook for doing exactly
- 24:54Speaker 1: what Twitter has been doing. Two conservatives as well. Now
- 24:58Speaker 1: they just now want to rain in Twitter because Twitter
- 25:00Speaker 1: is actually going to let everyone play fairly on their platform,
- 25:05Speaker 1: and that is why they are losing their minds. Haven't
- 25:08Speaker 1: heard that from the left in a while. Why are
- 25:10Speaker 1: they so mad? Because they're monopoly on speech and information.
- 25:15Speaker 1: The ability to control what you believe has been broken,
- 25:19Speaker 1: So once again they're resorting to force to get you
- 25:22Speaker 1: to shut up. This is not an attack on Elon Musk.
- 25:24Speaker 1: They're not going to attack him into poverty. He's the
- 25:26Speaker 1: world's richest man. This is an attack on you and
- 25:29Speaker 1: your right to speak freely, to express your conscience in public.
- 25:34Speaker 1: But for once, it's not working, and the media are infuriated.
- 25:38Speaker 1: They're profoundly threatened by a free Internet, and so their
- 25:42Speaker 1: panic watch. Elon Musk is the new power at the
- 25:48Speaker 1: social media giant, and he is foaming the runways for
- 25:52Speaker 1: the return of the trolls. This is happening in the
- 25:54Speaker 1: background if Elon Musk saying basically, I want to buy
- 25:57Speaker 1: Twitter so I can open it up and turn it
- 25:59Speaker 1: into gab and let Donald Trump back. So there are
- 26:02Speaker 1: real consequences to allowing anybody to run these Internet sites
- 26:06Speaker 1: and say whatever it is they want and Elon Musk
- 26:09Speaker 1: is the fox coming into the henhouse. And it is
- 26:12Speaker 1: shameful that Twitter, which has a fiduciary obligation, I would
- 26:17Speaker 1: think to protect people who actually use it, the millions
- 26:20Speaker 1: of people who actually use it them. Did they ask
- 26:22Speaker 1: a single woman a single woman? Was a single woman
- 26:24Speaker 1: consulted and this is it was a single person of
- 26:27Speaker 1: color who just uses Twitter, who made the mistake of
- 26:29Speaker 1: using Twitter and needs it for their job. By the way,
- 26:32Speaker 1: I love this. I love the crazies there, I really do.
- 26:35Speaker 1: I love this last part. They have a foindciary duty
- 26:38Speaker 1: to protect their the people that use their platform. They
- 26:40Speaker 1: didn't talk to any women of color. So now Twitter
- 26:43Speaker 1: is racist overnight? Does that mean that Twitter's board is racist?
- 26:47Speaker 1: The board that allowed for the sale? And remember, the
- 26:50Speaker 1: finciary duty isn't to the users. The findciary duty is
- 26:52Speaker 1: to the investors, you dumb idiot, right, Do they discuss
- 26:57Speaker 1: it with a single person of color? No, they did not.
- 27:01Speaker 1: So the same Twitter board that you loved you now
- 27:04Speaker 1: hate because they did what they were legally obligated to do,
- 27:09Speaker 1: which was to act in the best interests of the shareholders. Again,
- 27:16Speaker 1: get your head around that, folks. Get your head around this.
- 27:23Speaker 1: That's why they're losing their minds, because they cannot control
- 27:28Speaker 1: Twitter anymore. This is only about control, and why are
- 27:32Speaker 1: they afraid. Go back to Elon Must's original statement, quote,
- 27:35Speaker 1: free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and
- 27:38Speaker 1: Twitter is a digital town square where matters vital to
- 27:41Speaker 1: the future of humanity are debated. They don't like that
- 27:48Speaker 1: the game is no longer rigged against them. They don't
- 27:50Speaker 1: like that the next time a shady issue comes out right,
- 27:55Speaker 1: a shady, shady, shady issue comes out. They don't like
- 28:02Speaker 1: that they can't control those issues, and they can't block
- 28:05Speaker 1: those articles, and they can't silence those stories. They don't
- 28:13Speaker 1: like the fact that now they can't block Donald Trump
- 28:17Speaker 1: and other conservatives from their platform. They can't stand it, folks,
- 28:27Speaker 1: They hate it. They are angry. They have been angry
- 28:32Speaker 1: for a long time. And now what they're gonna do
- 28:35Speaker 1: is they're gonna go back to the drawing board. Okay,
- 28:37Speaker 1: let's rain in Twitter, not big Tech, just Twitter. They're
- 28:40Speaker 1: not gonna rain in. And again it's big story and
- 28:42Speaker 1: we're gonna keep covering it for you. It's gonna be
- 28:44Speaker 1: the story about Google and what we have found out
- 28:46Speaker 1: about Google. You look at what's happened with Google right
- 28:50Speaker 1: now and what Google has been busted with. No one
- 28:53Speaker 1: wants to talk about it, but Google has been busted now.
- 28:59Speaker 1: Just what gets into your inbox and what doesn't you know.
- 29:03Speaker 1: There's a big article that came out today and if
- 29:06Speaker 1: Twitter was still controlled by these scumbags on the left,
- 29:11Speaker 1: I bet you this is the next story they would
- 29:13Speaker 1: have banned. There's a new story out today that said
- 29:16Speaker 1: Joe Biden is missing millions. Financial records now revealed that
- 29:21Speaker 1: Biden had five point two million in unexplained income, as
- 29:26Speaker 1: emails show he paid Hunters legal bills for one megabucks
- 29:31Speaker 1: Chinese deal and was tapped as the big guy to
- 29:35Speaker 1: get ten percent cut in another. Emails from Hunter's laptop
- 29:40Speaker 1: are now revealing that Joe Biden agreed to pay his
- 29:42Speaker 1: son's legal fees for his deal with a Chinese government
- 29:46Speaker 1: control company. Why Joe was able to pay the bills
- 29:50Speaker 1: after earning millions of dollars through his and his wife's
- 29:52Speaker 1: companies after he left office as vice president, But a
- 29:57Speaker 1: new analysis has come out. The president's financial records show
- 30:01Speaker 1: that five point two million dollars an income is actually unexplained.
- 30:07Speaker 1: The missing millions and emails on hunters abandoned laptop actually
- 30:11Speaker 1: suggests that Joe would have a ten percent Sharon Hunter's
- 30:15Speaker 1: blockbuster deal with the Chinese. The revelation ties the present
- 30:19Speaker 1: even closer to Hunter Biden's overseas business dealings, despite the
- 30:24Speaker 1: White House continuing to claim that they never talked about business.
- 30:30Speaker 1: Joe Biden agreed to pay his son's legal fees. Why
- 30:35Speaker 1: why would he pay those legal fees with a deal
- 30:37Speaker 1: with a Chinese government control company. I have a feeling
- 30:40Speaker 1: it's because he didn't even think he was going to
- 30:41Speaker 1: run for president then. I think he thought his career's over.
- 30:45Speaker 1: He had left office. Trump was the president, he wasn't
- 30:47Speaker 1: going to run, and so he said, screw it, I'm
- 30:50Speaker 1: in bed with my son and all this shadiness. Sure,
- 30:55Speaker 1: I'll pay the legal fees. Why because he's making me
- 30:57Speaker 1: millions of dollars. I got five plus million and explain
- 31:00Speaker 1: money coming in. These are the types of articles, by
- 31:03Speaker 1: the way, that Twitter bands, and if they don't outright band,
- 31:08Speaker 1: then they shadow band them. It is obvious that Twitter
- 31:13Speaker 1: had a hit list, and once you were on that list,
- 31:15Speaker 1: you were never off that list. Once I got on
- 31:18Speaker 1: that list, my entire Twitter reach disappeared. It literally was nonexistent.
- 31:27Speaker 1: The reach that I had was gone, folks gone. They
- 31:34Speaker 1: designed it that way. They don't want people like me
- 31:38Speaker 1: or others to be influential. The reach of people like
- 31:42Speaker 1: Mark Levan and Tucker Carlson. They saw their reach disappear
- 31:45Speaker 1: as well. And when they saw their reach disappear, they
- 31:50Speaker 1: were big enough they could say we're not going to
- 31:52Speaker 1: do this anymore. We're not going to use your platform.
- 31:56Speaker 1: Now they're back because free speech is back. And don't
- 32:00Speaker 1: think for a moment that the Democrats in Congress aren't
- 32:03Speaker 1: going to try to settle this bet with Elon Musk.
- 32:06Speaker 1: They are going to try to destroy Elon Musk. They
- 32:09Speaker 1: are going to try to regulate Elon Musk. They're gonna
- 32:12Speaker 1: do it under the skies of transparency and an oversight
- 32:16Speaker 1: a big tech. It's not about oversight a big tech.
- 32:19Speaker 1: They are going to have a different set of rules
- 32:21Speaker 1: for Elon Musk than they do for everybody else in
- 32:25Speaker 1: big tech. They love Mark Zuckerberger because Zuckerberg gave millions
- 32:30Speaker 1: and millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions of dollars
- 32:33Speaker 1: to influence the last election. They're not going to rain
- 32:35Speaker 1: him in, just the people they don't like. And the
- 32:40Speaker 1: person they hate right now is a guy by the
- 32:42Speaker 1: name of Elon Musk, and that's another reason why you
- 32:45Speaker 1: should stand behind him and celebrate this. I will be
- 32:48Speaker 1: using Twitter as long as Elon Musk says his promise
- 32:52Speaker 1: of a free speech platform. I will use it every day.
