• 2:23
  Speaker 1: star hotel like workplace towards an actual commitment to improving
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: the platform and you know, actually having to work. As
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: for the internal restaurants that are at Twitter, yeah, they're
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: getting rid of those as well. They're not going to
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: have it be a five star country club. They're stick
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: and tired of it. And this is part of why
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: they say the culture has been a total disaster at Twitter.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Most the employees actually talked about working about four hours
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: a day, some saying they only worked four hours a week.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Out Let me hit pause on that perspective on a
• 3:02

• 3:07
  Speaker 1: also broken. But before I get to that, I want

• 4:28
  Speaker 1: free has been arrested in the Bahamas. Now, initially you
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: would think that's a good thing. Here's where the fix
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: is in. He was arrested after being a freeman for
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: basically more than thirty days in the Bahamas, just hours
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: before he was going to face questions from Congress. Why
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: did this happen this way? I'll tell exactly why. Democrats
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: were terrified of what he may say. In virtually all
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: of his interviews, he's been spilling the beans because I
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: think it it's like, Hey, my house is on fire,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna take everybody else down with me. The Democratic
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: mega donor, the number two donor in the Democratic Party
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: SBF was arrested just hours before for that, before that
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: question in Congress, and he was arrested in the Bahamas.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Why because Democrats apparently did not want him to have
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: to testify in front of the House Financial Services Committee.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Bateman Freed arrested after US authorities filed criminal charges against him,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: and many an hour believing this is one hundred percent
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: to do with politics. Quote. Earlier this evening, the Bahamian
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: authorities arrested Samuel Bateman freed at the request of the
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: US government. Yeah, I understand why now, based on a
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: sealed indictment filed by New York's district attorney. United States
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Attorney Damian Williams said, we expect to move the to
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: unseal the indictment in the morning, and we'll have more
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: to say at that time. But if you go to
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: their Twitter page, the US Attorney for the Southern District
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: of New York, said USA Damian Williams. Earlier this evening,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Bahamian authorities arrested Samuel Bateman freed at the request the
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: US government based on that sealed indictment. Well, there you go.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Some politicians are not happy about this, quickly pointing out
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: that bankman Freed's arrest came just hours before his highly
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: anticipated testimony to Congress, where many Republicans were going to
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: ask him tough questions about his donations to the Democratic Party.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Leezeldon said this tomorrow, Sam Bateman Freed was scheduled to
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: testify in from the House Financial Services Committee. House GOP
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: was ready to grill him six ways to Sunday. Former
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: New York Republican Governmentory kenned At Leezeldon also said, now
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: breaking tonight, Sam Bateman Freed was just arrested. Why not
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: allow him to first testify tomorrow and answer our many questions.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: This is how the deep state and the Democratic Party works.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: And I bring this up because now let's go into
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the Twitter files. This is no different than the playbook
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: that we've now learned from the Democratic Party and from
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: what has come out from the Twitter files. When Democrats
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: don't want something to see the light of day, what
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: do they do? They covered up, silence it, and make
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: sure it never sees the light of day. Sam Bankman
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Free was the number two donor the Democratic Party behind
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: George Soros. He scheduled up here before the House Financial
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Services Committee, and they say this is a problem. What
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: do we do. Let's in diet them and get him arrested.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Now the disgrace financier previously Dodge chairwoman Maxie Waters requests
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: for him to testify before the committee. That's what they're
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: trying to claim. Bankman Freed was a very close friend
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: and donor to Maxie Waters. Just so you know. Bakman
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Freed told Waters and the committee last way that he
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: is not sure if he would be finished learning and
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: reviewing what happened with FTX where the committee wanted him
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: to testify quote on December the thirteenth. However, on Monday,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: during a Twitter space interview just hours before his arrest,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Bankman Freed confirmed that he would repair remotely before the
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: House Financial Services Committee RHYTHM an in person appearance because
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: he is quite overbooked. And that's when Democrats said, crap,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: we got to indict him now and get him so
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: he won't be able to tell a story. I don't
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: think I will be arrested, Bateman Freed reportedly said during
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: that Twitter Space interview. He added that he is open
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: and willing to possibly appear before the Senate Banking Committee.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: On Wednesday. Senators Shiad Brown Democrat, Ohio and Pat Toomey,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Republican Pennsylvania, the chairman and the ranking member of the
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Senate Banking Committee, criticized Bankman Freed over his reluctance to
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: confirm an appearance before their committee. Brown and Toomey said
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: an a joint statement, quote, Virtually every CEO, financial regulator,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: an administration official for Republicans and Democrats has agreed to
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: testify in front of both the Senate in the House
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: when called upon. This how congressional oversight works. We have
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: offered Sam Bateman Freed two different dates for providing testimony
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: before the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee, and
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: are willing to accommodate virtual testimony. He has declined in
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: an unprecedented abdication of accountability. Given that Bankman Freed's counsel
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: has said they were unwilling to accept service of the subpoena,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: we will continue to work to have him appear before
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: the committee. He owes the American people and explanation. Now,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: this is where I believe that Sam Bankman Freed actually
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: screwed up. If he was smart, he would have turned
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: on all of the Democrats that he was giving to,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: telling them that the reason why he was able to
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: get away with what he got away was because they
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: didn't regulate him because he was giving them so much money.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: That's the truth of the matter. Let's not act like
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: it's not Now. Before I get into more of that,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: I want to tell you about our friends over at
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile real quick. You may see a lot of
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: bait and switch offers for free phones, free iPhones. Well,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: they're usually too going to be true. Just like freedom itself,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: nothing is free. Mobile phone companies not only lock you
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: into long term contracts, but they also build the price
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: the phone into your bill with hidden fees. With Patriot Mobile,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: they can show you how to get that same iPhone
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: interest free without the games and no contract at Patriot Mobile.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. They
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: offer nationwide coverage on the best four G and five
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: G networks because they use the same towers as the
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: major carrier that you're probably on right now. So if
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: you want to get great service and you want to
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: know you're working with a company that supports conservative causes
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: that every month when you pay your bill, they actually
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: take a portion of your bill and they give it
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: back to causes like First and Second Amendment issues and
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: the right to life, as well as adoptions, then you
• 10:55

  Speaker 1: code ferguson plus other great savings Patriot Mobile dot com
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: slash ferguson or nine seven to Patriot. Democrats are terrified
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: that bankman Freed may may flip on them and really
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: may expose exactly how he was able to get away
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: with what he got away with if his advisors and
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: I it's clear that bankman Freed is a crazy guy.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: But if his advisors were really truly smart, what they
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: would end up doing and what they would end up
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: saying is very obvious. We got away with running a
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Ponzi scheme because the Democratic Party allowed us to get
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: away with it. We got away with doing whatever the
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: hell we want to do because Democrats allowed us to
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: get away with it. We were able to do exactly
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: what it was that we wanted. We were able to
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: accomplish exactly what we wanted to accomplish, which was take
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: money from an insane number of individuals. Right again, let's
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: just speak clear. That's exactly what we did. That's exactly
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: what they did because no one held US accountable. We
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: were unregulated because I bribed people. I truly believe that
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: is what he would say in response to all of
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: this if he was telling the truth, because that's clearly
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: what we have seen based on what they have done. Now,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: this is no different than what Twitter was doing with
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: the US government. You guys can silence and censor and
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: get away with taking away the rights of Americans as
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: long as you play with the Democratic Party and you
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: donate to the Democratic Party. Why do you think Section
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: two thirty has not been overturned the protect for Twitter
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: and Facebook and Instagram and all the others in YouTube
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: and Google. Why do you think it's not been overturned.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: I'll te exactly why. It's because as long as you
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: give money the Democrats, and that's what has happened. Democrats
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: keep getting donations from Mark Zuckerberg or Sam Bateman, Freed
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: or Dorsey and the other employees. You can run any
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: way you want to. You can run it however you
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: want to. It doesn't matter. Now. The FTX new CEO
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: has spoken before Congress moments ago. He was asked about
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: this collapse. And this is the FTX new CEO that's
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: been put in place. To talk about just how bad
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: things actually are. And I want you to hear what
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: he had to say moments ago in front of this committee.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: That well, Sam Bateman Free was supposed to be actually
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: testifying before, but miraculously we arrested him beforehand, so it
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: wouldn't hurt the Democrats. Take a list of the X
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: it's just a sideline comment. One of the questions I
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: got is with regards to the Farmington State Bank. This
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: is an investment that Alameda made into and it's a
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: little bit bank. According to a New York Times article,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: State at Washington twenty six smallest bank out of forty
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: eight hundred in the country. They bought it in twenty
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: twenty had a net worth of five point seven million,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: and they dropped eleven and a half million in for
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: a percentage of the ownership. Do you know, off the
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: top of your head what the percentage ownership wasn't at
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: bank they purchased. I believe that ownership was approximately ten percent,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: but I can just think, okay, and that's what I've
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: heard too, So hopefully they paid twenty times book, which
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: is off the charch outrageous, So it should be a
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: red flag over the place. Yet they were able to
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: purchase that even though some minority interest of twenty times
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: book FDIC allowed that to happen. They changed names to
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Moonstone Bank and since then they've four separate accounts. I've
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: dropped the roughly seventy one million again, Corny FDIC, Dad
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: and this article. Have you looked at this relationship and
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: all yet to see what's what's going on here and
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: whether there was any regulatories all. We are looking at it.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: It certainly is one of the things that came to
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: our attention fairly quickly. We're looking at what the dollars
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: were that went from the FTX group to that bank,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: and we're looking at the connections of that bank to
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: the MOMAS. Now here's the thing, everybody, and the reason
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: why I play that. I'm going to explain it to you.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: FTX was able to take over basically a bank, and
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: the US government allowed them to take over this bank,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: even though the deal was a terrible deal that should
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: not have been allowed to happen for as little as
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: they put into the bank, and it was running part
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: of their Ponzi scheme. They needed a bank to help
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: them with the Ponzi scheme. That's what John Ray, the
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: new FTX CEO who is trying to untangle all of this,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: has just told you every single safe guard in the
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: United States government that was supposed to protect millions of
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Americans who lost billions of dollars didn't work. How is
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: that even possible. There's only one explanation for this, and
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: that one explanation is he was giving millions and millions
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: and millions and millions of dollars to the Democratic Party.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: So when you're bribing people, and that's what this is,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: it is bribery, you can get away with anything you want. Now,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: you look at this recent release of the trove of
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: emails that were sent by Twitter employees related to the
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Hunter Biden laptop scandal. These two scandals are no different.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: They basically have the same exact playbook. Right. This release
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: of these tropes of emails by Twitter employees related to
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Hunter Biden laptop scandal have fueled the reality that you
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: have direct conspiratorial ties between the social media platform and
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: government in the run up to the twenty twenty presidential election.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: That is no different than what we are now seeing
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: with XTF. You had direct conspiratorial ties between Sam Bankman
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: Freed the Democratic Party and the regulators of the United
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: States government. You go back and look at what Elon
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: must tease several days ahead of their release on Friday, December.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: The second right these Twitter files. They showed that Twitter
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: engaged with politicians over the content on its platform, as
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: well as the social media network's efforts to suppress a
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: story of Hunter Biden for one reason, they needed to
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: tip the scales before the election, and they knew if
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: they legitimized a story that they knew was legitimate, the
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: government knew it was legitimate, The Deep State knew it
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: was legitimate. Twitter knew it was legitimate. Facebook knew that
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: it was legitimate. They knew that they didn't tip the scales,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden wouldn't be the president now. The messages point
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: to a clear platform leadership connection to the leadership of
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, and the leadership at Twitter opted early
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: on to suppress the story and its recommendation and algorithms,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: and then blocked the link to it and then treated
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: it like child pornography sharing because the company's policy was
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: to make sure that Joe Biden got elected. They knew
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: it wasn't hacked material. That didn't matter either, According to
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: the Twitter files, the decision of block the article was
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: made by the former head of Legal, Public Policy, and
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: trust and Safety at Twitter, and one of the screenshots,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: a former US policy communications manager, Trenton Kennedy, wrote that
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: he was struggling to understand the policy basis for marking
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: the Biden story is unsafe. The decision was said to
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: have been based on what several of Twitter sources called
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: a general warning for federal government, not direct general, about
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: the possibility of the post article stemming from foreign interference.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Even though the deep state, the government that was warning
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Twitter and Facebook and Google and Instagram, they knew the
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: story was real. They had the laptop for over a year.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: I go back and compare this to Sam Bateman Freed.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Millions of Americans have lost billions of dollars because the
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: government was in on it the entire time. It's called bribery.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: That's what it is. Anyone that says it's not bribery,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you're an idiot. This was clearly bribery from
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: the very beginning. Sam Bateman Freed was able to operate
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: for probably years longer than he should have been, and
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: certainly through the mid term election because he was their
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: top financier. They were able to buy banks in ways
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: that they would no one else, you and I would
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: never be allowed to. The federal government would have denied
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: the ability for us to buy a bank and do
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: what we were trying to do. And everyone knows it. Okay,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: everybody understands this. And then he gets Then he files
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: for bankruptcy two days before or excuse me, two days
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: after the midterm elections. And then just hours before he's
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: going to testify before Congress and explain the relationship between
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: him and Democrats, he immediately just gets arrested. Are you
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: kidding me? This is communism playing out in America? Because
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: this is what happens in communist countries around the world.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: This is what corruption looks like around the world, except
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: now it's happening in real time in the United States
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: of America. Now, before I get into more of this story,
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: I want to say thank you and tell you about
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: our good friends at Legacy Precious Medals. Without them, the
• 20:47

  Speaker 1: with inflation. It's time for you to call them and

• 21:09
  Speaker 1: which is exactly what we're dealing with right now. If
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: you're terrified to look at your retirement account, your four
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: one case statement because of what's happening on Wall Street,

• 21:20
  Speaker 1: get the investors got in gold and silver, protect your
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: hard earned money and diversify. Call them and get the

• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Legacy PM investments dot com. Now, there's also a very
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: big issue that has come up, and I want to
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: put this on your radar screen as well, and that
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: is some legislation and you want to talk about silencing people.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: You may remember we got rid of and many many
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: great men and women are military were actually fired because
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: it refused to get the vaccine. There's some legislation that
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: I want to bring to your attention that Marsha Blackburn
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: is advocating for US Center. Marsha Blackburn and I went
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: and earlier today I sat down with her to talk
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: about that, but also what's happening with the Twitter files
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: as well, and is Congress going to hold people accountable
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: for what they did at Twitter? Here is that conversation.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Joining me now to talk about that as US senator
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: at Marsha Blackburn from Tennessee. Senator, good morning, Nice to
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: have you with us. And there are a lot of
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: people that are depressed over the fact that we did
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: not get the Senate majority. In fact, we gave the
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Democrats one more seat. That's concerning, and then we have
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: now at least one senator that's flipped to an independent.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: It's going to make things very interesting and spicy. But
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: let's talk about these Twitter files. You and I have
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: talked about this backstage at CEPAC, about the silencing, shadow banning,
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: censoring of conservatives. It was real. We all experienced it
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: in real time. We all witnessed people that were calling
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: us and saying, hey, I can't reach my audience anymore.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: Now we know exactly what Twitter was doing. The question
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: is what can Congress do about this, if anything at all?
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: And how do we find out exactly what's been happening
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: at Google, what's been happening at YouTube, what's been happening
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: at Facebook and Instagram, because we also know that those
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: companies apparently have also met regularly with the deep state
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: and people within the government, possibly the Democratic Party as well,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: on who they want to shut down in silence. Well,
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: you're right about every bit of that then, And as
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: you know, over the past two years, Senator Billiam Fallen
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: I in a bipartisan manner, he is the chairman, he
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: is the top Republican on the Consumer Protection Data Security Subcommittee,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: have held a series of hearings into big tech and
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: looking at what they do with collecting information and how
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: they censor and prioritize. And we have directed this at
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: how the platforms use the information of children. What we
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: have come to find out is not only do they
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: do this with children, but with adults. And that is
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: confirmed with how they have gone about with the censoring
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: on Twitter and the Twitter files being made public. I
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: think is such an important step and I'm glad Elon
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: Musk is doing that now as we move forward past investigations,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: past making criminal referrals to the Department of Justice, which
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: is something that the House will be able to do
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: through oversighting investigations in the Energy and Commerce Committee, which
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: covers these tech issues. There is a need for online
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: consumer privacy information. Senator billians All and I have v
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: bi partisan bill, the bipartisan bill that would put that
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: national privacy standard in place. It would allow you, the
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: online consumer, to own your virtual view and would say
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: to these platforms, you cannot doubt of mine needs, you
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: cannot control my information, you cannot monetize my information unless
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: I give you explicit permission to do this. Plus big tech,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: you can't kick me off your platform. Now, that is
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: the type privacy legislation people have wanted to see. I
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: have had a privacy bill for ten foods years and
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: have been fighting big tech for a decade AID on
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: this issue, and it is time to put these protections
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: in place for the American consumer. I gotta ask why
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: has it taken so long? Is it because of the
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: lobbyists and the power of big tech and the money
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: that big tech spends. I mean, we know Facebook's CEO
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg is one of the top donors to the
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Democratic Party and to Democratic candidates. The amount of money
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: that you spent in the last presidential election and then
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: the midterms was unbelievable. It's huge money. Is that why
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: you can't get this done so far? I yes, vic
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: Tech has fought us every step of the way, and
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: we were marking the bill up ten years ago when
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: the Energy and Commerce Committee in Nancy Pelosi put a
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: halt to it. Why did she do that? It's because
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: you had Silicon Valley. They're pushing against it. Why has
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: the open a market not made its way across the
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: Senate floor. We have past it with a get this
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: twenty to two vote out of the Senate Judiciary Committee,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: which would take Apple and Google off as the gatekeepers
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: on all the apps you put on the Android or
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: the iPhone. And why has it not finished? It is
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: because you've got California senators that don't want that bill
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: to move forward. But the American people want to see
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: a privacy standards, they want to see data security, they
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: want to own their virtual view when they are online,
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: and it is time to do this. I think people
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: are sick and tired of this. You look at what
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: is happening with children. Our Kids Online Safety Act is
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: ready to go and it would prohibit these big tech
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: platforms from monetizing our children, from allowing drug dealers and
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: pedophiles and videos that cause self harm to come into
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: the lives of our children. And I've worked very closely
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: with parent advocates, kid advocates teams themselves who have said
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: there needs to be some policing and reigning end of
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: these video platforms. And it is those senators that represent
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: these areas that are slow in this dawn, But we
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: need to get these protections online. People want to have security.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: They who know that their right to privacy is protected,
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: whether they're in the physical space or the virtual space. Well,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: let's talk about TikTok because you mentioned that people want
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: safety and security. It's pretty clear now from all of
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: the different intel and warnings that have come out that
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: TikTok is nothing more than a spying mechanism for China.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Why are we still allowing the TikTok app to be
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: used when we know that it's just about data gathering
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: on every single user, Especially in the US. We've seen
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: states now that are banning the TikTok app from being
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: downloaded onto government phones. Would the federal government move to
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: that or is there just too much influence from the
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: left to say no, no no, we got to keep China's
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: top app. And you know, rolling in America, we have
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: tried to get TikTok ban and indeed President Trump moves
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: to remove TikTok Biden let TikTok back in. And what
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: we know is that federal funds, we remove them from
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: the phones of our military and our federal employees. They
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: cannot put these social media apps on a federal phone.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: We know that that is dangerous and so and your
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: milit terry can't have it on any fun. This is
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: something that's the Chinese Communist Party who is in cahoots.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: Remember with the other members of your Access of Evil.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: You have Russia, China run in North Korea. These are
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: people that do not wish us well and you don't
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: want them having access to sensitive data and information. Let's
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: talk about quickly before we move to another issue that
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: deals with the military. About lying to Congress, Senator, it's
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: getting frustrating, I know for many Americans at Watch and
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: this last week is a perfect example. This we have
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: video of Jack Dorsey deliberately lying to Congress when and
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: being asked questions about shadow banning, about silencing conservatives. We
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: know that he lied to Congress. Now based on the
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: internal files of Twitter that are being exposed, does anyone
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: get in trouble anymore if you're a Democrat or on
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: the last if you just straight up lie to Congress?
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: Is there any accountability anymore about lying to curse? It
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: was supposed to be a big deal. Like, hey, when
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: you go testifying Congress, you don't lie, Well, it is
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: a big deal. And you look at people that raise
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: their hand and take that oath and then sit down
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: in that chair and answer things in a very curious way,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: if you will. And I think that as you have
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: the House going under Republican control, you will see some
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: action take place for people that have chosen to stand
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: there and not tell the truth, the whole truth and
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: nothing but the truth. And I look forward to what
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: the House members are going to do is they begin
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: to take these actions. You look at what we're finding
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: out from the Twitter files, and as you said, if
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Twitter will to doing it, you know that other people
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: are doing it. And then I think one of the
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: things that has time out that is important for us
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: to remember is that the contributions is these employees at
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Twitter made were ninety six to ninety nine percent all
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: for Democrat candidates. So what they were doing and was
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: taking their political ideology and then they were making decisions
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: based completely on that, and they were getting rid of
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: things that offended their sensibilities, not things that were something
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: breaking the rules or breaking a law, but they were
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: actually infringing someone's free speech because they disagreed with the
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: point of view. So let that sink in for a
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: minute and think about what they're actually doing. Get here
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: and had dangers of that. So these people that have
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: come before Congress raised their hand, taken an oath, and
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: now we're finding out they knew differently, they had knowledge,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: and they did something different, and we are going to
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: have to be very attuned to watching what the House does.
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: Is they move forward with these referrals. I hope that,
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: and I say this because I've talked to so many
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: people that are just at the point of beyond outrage
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: and they feel like sometimes conservatives when they get to
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: Congress don't fight the same way Democrats do. I hope
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: you guys and sent it, encourage them to stick to it,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: to get to the truth, hold people accountable in the House,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: because people are expecting that I want to move to
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: this other issue. You have called on Biden to sign
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: the National Defense Bill and repeal his power grabbing military
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: COVID mandate. This is a COVID vaccine mandate that was
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: harmful to the military. Not only was it harmful and
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: took away people's rights when it comes to medical decisions,
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: but it also, now we have been told, has put
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: us in a bad spot with our troop numbers. Talk
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: about this and is there a chance that they will
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: admit we got this wrong, kicking people out of the
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: military for not being vaccinated. Yes, And what we are
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: working to do right now is get this NBAA across
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: the line. And we know that thirty three hundred Marines,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: eighteen hundred soldiers, eighteen hundred sailors, and nine hundred airmen
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: have been removed from active duty service because of this mandate.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: You also have members of the National Guard removed because
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: of this mandate. So my legislation that has made it
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: into the NBAA and already passed the House. So the
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: DoD you've got thirty days and this goes away. But
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: by the end of thirty days it is gone, and
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: they have to implement it. And what we do know
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: is that because of these efforts that I've been making
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: for six months, that there are some members of the
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: military that have already been called back. If you've got
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: a squadron that needs a highly trained pilot, or you've
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: got other special skills and they can't fill out a unit,
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: some of these individuals have been allowed to move back
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: into service. And with this, we think you will see
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: others of that. The next step after we get this
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: mandate rescinded, is to make these men and women that
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: were released whole, to get them their benefits, to allow
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: them back into the military ry if they so choose
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: to serve. Those are components that we will go to
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: rectifying this situation, this overstep that d D and the
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: Biden administration has exercised. Are there Democrats are willing to
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: come alongside you on this one that you've talked to
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: Kylie who said, yeah, we understand this. I mean this
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: to me seems like it could be a very big
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: bipartisan type bill. Well, and it has. And bear in mind,
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: when I presented these amendments in committee, they were voted
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: down on the party line vote. And now what we've
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: seen is that with bipartisan support. It has come out
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: of the House and it will move with bipartisan support
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: through the Senate. Incredible center. I appreciate your time as always,
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: good to chat with you this morning, and keep us
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: update on this bill as it moves forward. Good luck
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: in this new Congress. I know there's a lot of
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: people that excited to see what Republicans do. You were
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: in the House for a long time, so keep encouraging
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: those guys. Don't back down because I know there's a
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: lot of people that are afraid that's what's going to happen,
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: and they're gonna get everybody's support who's been there before
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: to say, hey, don't back down. So thanks as always,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: we'll talk to you again real soon. You got it,
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: take care of bye bye. As I've said before, we
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: are going to keep exposing the Twitter files every day.
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: When new stuff drops, we will have it here for you.
• 37:25
