Transcript

00:00:00.200 Hello, my rebels. Today I take you through the crazy case of Jerry Diaz, until recently the president of Canada's largest private sector union called Unifor, taking a $50,000 COVID bribe.
00:00:13.820 The union just suspended him for it, although they covered that up for a few weeks. I think it raises a lot of questions. Who else is being bribed? Who else is paying bribes?
00:00:23.540 What decisions at Unifor were made because of this bribe? This is, in some ways, like discovering that a judge has been bribed.
00:00:33.040 I mean, so many things have to be redone. I'll take you through it in today's show. I'm deeply troubled by it.

00:01:13.260 You're listening to Rebel News Podcast.
00:01:19.760 Tonight, the head of Canada's largest union is caught taking a $50,000 bribe from a COVID company.
00:01:32.140 Is that why he refused to fight against vaccine mandates?
00:01:35.540 It's March 24th, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.
00:01:37.760 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:01:43.720 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.
00:01:47.780 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I'm publishing it is because it's my bloody right to do so.
00:01:58.920 You know Jerry Diaz, right?
00:02:00.760 He's the head of Unifor, one of the largest unions in Canada.
00:02:07.120 Though you'd be forgiven for thinking he was the deputy leader of the Liberal Party of Canada.
00:02:12.720 He's thick as thieves with Trudeau.
00:02:15.280 Very political.
00:02:16.720 It was Diaz who turned Unifor and his dues-paying members into de facto members of the Liberal Party by conscripting them,
00:02:24.560 and their union dues, to fight against the Conservatives in the last few elections,
00:02:30.240 for which he was handsomely rewarded by Trudeau.
00:02:34.540 Unifor has hundreds of thousands of members, most of them in the private sector, but some government workers too.
00:02:41.980 They were formed in part from the old Canadian Auto Workers Union.
00:02:46.060 Lots of energy workers, forestry workers, fisheries workers, and, I think this is important, media workers too.
00:02:54.880 Unifor claims to represent 11,000 people in the media.
00:02:58.980 That's so many.
00:02:59.980 And if you're in any doubt about their political leanings, just look at their website homepage for the Unifor Media folks.
00:03:08.200 You would be forgiven for thinking that that's the Liberal Party homepage.
00:03:12.100 If you scroll down this Unifor Media page, you will see that these journalists, who present to you every day in the newspaper and every night on TV as neutral,
00:03:24.940 they're actually campaigning.
00:03:26.400 Look at them.
00:03:26.740 They're asking you, the public, to pressure politicians to give them more bailout money.
00:03:33.140 So you can see the problem here, the conflict of interest here.
00:03:35.860 They're pretending to be neutral and fair, but they have a personal interest in the media bailout.
00:03:42.500 So if you are a politician who is for giving them free money, they'll likely lavish support on you.
00:03:50.740 If not, well, it's a bit of a shakedown.
00:03:53.540 It's a bit of a protection racket, isn't it?
00:03:55.880 Andrew Scheer failed the test.
00:03:57.860 So did Aaron O'Toole both abandoned their anti-CBC platforms immediately, but actually much more troubling is they tailored their political answers to policy questions to please the media.
00:04:14.020 Let's see if Pierre Polyev can hold out against them.
00:04:17.640 Here's what Pierre Polyev told Alexa LaVoie the other day.
00:04:21.060 You said that you wanted to stop the subvention of CBC, and I also wanted to know your position on Radio-Canada, which is the version francophone of Quebec.
00:04:34.880 Yes.
00:04:35.200 What is your plan on that?
00:04:37.140 The plan that I have for that is to be able to do during the campaign to the cheffery campaign.
00:04:42.380 But it's true that I have to pay for the budget of CBC because it's a big gaspillage.
00:04:48.040 It gaspillates a lot of money and almost everything that does the CBC English English English English English English is already available on the market.
00:04:55.780 The government should only do what the market cannot do.
00:05:00.600 But almost everything that we see at CBC, on the TV, on the Internet, is already available in other sources.
00:05:09.720 So, I recognize that for RDI, it's a bit different because there's not enough options in French that exist in English.
00:05:20.780 So, for the CBC, there's a lot of gaspillage.
00:05:23.820 I'm going to cut it.
00:05:24.900 I'm going to save money.
00:05:26.480 And we're going to allow people to choose their own media resources.
00:05:29.280 So, the boss of the whole union was Jerry Diaz.
00:05:34.400 And look at the news.
00:05:35.940 This is incredible.
00:05:38.680 Former Unifor boss Jerry Diaz accepted $50,000 from supply of COVID-19 rapid test kits, a union alleges.
00:05:46.980 See, what's funny is that for weeks, the media party, that is Unifor reporters, said, oh, no, no, no, no.
00:05:55.100 He's retiring for health reasons.
00:05:57.760 But did you think Unifor reporters would accurately report about Unifor, especially news that their boss took a bribe to promote the COVID agenda?
00:06:11.000 But really, how is that any different from the media party that is bribed all the time by Justin Trudeau to follow his agenda?
00:06:19.620 But this was a secret payoff.
00:06:23.360 Let me read from the Globe story, many of whose employees at the Globe and Mail are Unifor members themselves.
00:06:29.060 Former Unifor leader Jerry Diaz has been accused of breaching the union's code of ethics
00:06:34.620 by accepting $50,000 from a supplier of COVID-19 rapid test kits in exchange for promoting the products to employers of union members.
00:06:45.960 Unifor's National Executive Board said on Wednesday, yeah, that's more than just breaching a code of ethics.
00:06:53.680 And I'll tell you why in a moment.
00:06:55.900 Let me read a little more.
00:06:56.660 Mr. Diaz, who announced his retirement as national president on March 11th, citing a debilitating sciatic nerve issue.
00:07:06.560 Yeah, that's not what it was.
00:07:08.980 We'll face a hearing before the board as early as April.
00:07:13.820 In a statement on Wednesday, his first in more than five weeks, Mr. Diaz said he would check into a rehabilitation facility for substance abuse issues.
00:07:23.280 He said he has been coping with the nerve problem through painkillers, sleeping pills, and alcohol, all of which had impaired his judgment in recent months.
00:07:34.720 Got it.
00:07:35.380 I'm going to try that out if I'm ever caught committing a crime.
00:07:38.740 Officer, I know it looks really bad, but you see, I have a bad back and I'm going to check into a clinic.
00:07:45.880 And can we just forget the fact that, you know, I took a $50,000 secret bribe?
00:07:53.840 I love this part of the story.
00:07:57.320 Mr. Diaz was asked to participate in the investigation, but did not, the union said.
00:08:02.540 In his statement, which was released as Unifor was holding its news conference, Mr. Diaz said he was unable to take part in the investigation on the advice of his physician.
00:08:13.580 Got it, officer.
00:08:15.860 You know, I'd really like to answer your questions about how I was speeding, and I really would like to take the breathalyzer test.
00:08:22.540 But my doctor says I can't, so case closed, doc.
00:08:26.820 Oh, my gosh.
00:08:27.800 Let me read some more from the story.
00:08:29.440 At a news conference, Unifor National Secretary-Treasurer Lana Payne said Mr. Diaz accepted the $50,000 from the supplier of the test kits at some point before January 20, 2022.
00:08:42.020 Ms. Payne said an external investigation determined that, quote, on the balance of probabilities, he had breached the union's constitution by promoting the test kits in December 2021 and January 2022 to various Unifor employers.
00:08:59.280 Mr. Diaz allegedly recommended the supplier's test kits directly to employers and got Unifor staff members to promote the supplier, she said.
00:09:08.660 What's so incredible here is that the union will not say who the bribe-paying company is.
00:09:17.360 They're keeping it a secret.
00:09:18.860 Why?
00:09:20.600 Why would they possibly do that?
00:09:22.340 I mean, if the bribe was bad enough that they sacked their president, surely it's bad enough to disclose who paid the bribe?
00:09:32.520 Unless they want it kept secret for some reason, what could that reason possibly be?
00:09:39.000 Is it at some politically connected company?
00:09:41.260 That's not the company owned by the husband of the defense minister who gets all these government contracts, is it?
00:09:48.660 Did the company bribe other people too?
00:09:50.660 Is that why?
00:09:52.280 Did this secret company bribe other people in uniform?
00:09:55.480 In other unions, maybe?
00:10:00.360 Did they bribe other liberals?
00:10:02.940 I mentioned that this is bigger than just violating Unifor's rules against taking bribes.
00:10:08.740 See, Unifor does more things than just campaign for Justin Trudeau.
00:10:12.860 I know it seems like it doesn't.
00:10:14.660 It supposedly represents workers.
00:10:17.560 I mean, that's the whole point of a union.
00:10:19.140 The idea is if there's one powerful employer, he could boss around any individual employee.
00:10:26.580 You got 100 employees.
00:10:27.860 You boss them around one at a time.
00:10:29.100 They have no chance.
00:10:29.740 But if these 100 employees bind together collectively, they can even power imbalance.
00:10:37.040 They can protect themselves, you know, all together.
00:10:41.600 They can negotiate collectively.
00:10:43.480 But it also protects individual members who have problems along the way.
00:10:48.340 If they're picked on by the boss, if they're fired even, they can file a grievance through the union.
00:10:54.720 The union will effectively give them a lawyer to fight for them.
00:10:58.780 It's a powerful rationale in theory and sometimes in practice.
00:11:04.000 But what happens if the union bosses don't actually work for the dues-paying members?
00:11:10.020 What if they're actually secretly working for some COVID company?
00:11:15.740 Because Jerry Diaz had a legal duty to represent his members' interests and to push back against unreasonable demands from the bosses.
00:11:23.960 That's, you know, the whole point.
00:11:26.000 That's his one job.
00:11:29.000 So you got 300,000 people who have contracts with companies called collective agreements with the bosses.
00:11:34.940 And suddenly the bosses in many of those companies, they just say, hey, get an injection or be fired.
00:11:45.000 Now, that's very likely a human rights violation.
00:11:48.960 Companies have to reasonably accommodate people who have medical issues or whatever, issues of conscience.
00:11:55.000 But put aside the law.
00:11:57.440 It's simply not in the collective agreements.
00:11:59.820 If you have a contract with someone that's signed and sealed, and then one side suddenly demands something extra, well, that's just not on.
00:12:10.960 What are you going to give me for it in return?
00:12:12.800 You want to crack open the agreement and add some jab requirement.
00:12:15.440 All right.
00:12:16.200 What reasonable measures will you bring in to protect those who want to opt out?
00:12:22.240 At the very least, it's a negotiation, right?
00:12:24.760 For those individual members who want more, maybe you fight agreements for them.
00:12:30.500 And frankly, you could even go on strike.
00:12:33.460 I mean, if one side's breaking the deal, the company side, I mean, that's the whole point of a union.
00:12:39.000 But Jerry Diaz was not interested in any of those things.
00:12:43.780 He couldn't sell out his members fast enough.
00:12:46.720 I always assumed it was just because he was a Trudeau liberal hack.
00:12:50.940 I assumed it was just his personal loyalty to Trudeau.
00:12:54.120 That was first, and he was a labor man second.
00:12:57.080 I mean, look at this.
00:13:00.260 The bottom line is, if an employer comes out with a mandatory vaccination policy, unless you have a bona fide medical reason, it will be deemed legitimate.
00:13:10.720 So you've just given up.
00:13:13.700 So no religious exemption, for example, no exemption for conscientious objectors, and most obviously no objections for people who contracted COVID-19, got sick, then got better, and now have natural immunity.
00:13:26.840 So you're just not even going to fight at all?
00:13:28.960 Like, you're paid to fight.
00:13:30.980 You're just not even going to try.
00:13:34.220 Why would Jerry Diaz sell out, surrender, without even a fight?
00:13:38.200 Like, he is paid to fight.
00:13:39.040 That's really his only job is to fight.
00:13:42.840 He was literally boasting about it.
00:13:45.080 Here's the Toronto Star article mentioned that tweet.
00:13:47.680 It was written by Uniform members of the Star.
00:13:52.820 Here's what he says, and then let me read this first line.
00:13:55.240 It's great.
00:13:55.820 The story is called Uniform President Jerry Diaz Supports Mandatory Vaccination Against COVID-19.
00:14:01.680 Uniform President Jerry Diaz, baffled by union pushback against mandatory vaccination policies,
00:14:08.000 says supporting vaccine mandates is a way to honor union members who lost their lives to COVID-19.
00:14:16.420 I love this first sentence.
00:14:17.860 Let me read this first sentence.
00:14:18.820 It is so amazing in light of the bribery scandal.
00:14:24.040 The head of Canada's largest private sector union is challenging other labor leaders to be more honest with their members and to support COVID-19 vaccine mandates.
00:14:35.260 Hey, guys, be honest, okay?
00:14:39.380 Stop fighting forced vaccines on behalf of your members.
00:14:43.420 By the way, plenty of unions did fight.
00:14:46.160 Not enough.
00:14:47.640 But some of them fought and won.
00:14:49.760 I'm not going to list all the examples, but just one that I happen to know about is the Hamilton police.
00:14:54.340 They don't force their cops to be jabbed.
00:14:57.300 I mean, they have to take some occasional tests.
00:14:59.960 I'm not sure if they even enforce that anymore.
00:15:04.040 But not everyone sold out their union members without a fight like Jerry Diaz did.
00:15:08.660 Oh, my God, did Jerry Diaz sell them out.
00:15:10.420 And he had the nerve to call others dishonest for not even trying.
00:15:16.620 Sure looks different in the light of the news of his bribery scandal, doesn't it?
00:15:19.440 Like this tweet by Jerry Diaz that I dug up.
00:15:22.340 Well, today's announcement is crucial in keeping us safe as we continue to fight against the fourth wave.
00:15:29.680 Vaccine certificate systems will help to protect workers and speed up the post-pandemic economic recovery.
00:15:36.780 So he's pushing the whole the whole COVID thing like he's some sort of, I don't know, honorary public health officer.
00:15:45.240 His one job is to fight for his union members rights.
00:15:49.200 But it sure looks like he was fighting for, I don't know, Pfizer shareholders, was he?
00:15:54.540 I mean, seriously, was he?
00:15:55.720 They've been caught in all sorts of scandals and bribes and frauds.
00:15:59.580 Was he getting paid by Pfizer, too?
00:16:01.420 Real question.
00:16:03.280 I mean, here's a question for you.
00:16:05.340 The $50,000 bribe he was paid to push some COVID agenda, and he did.
00:16:12.880 And some of the people he pressed bought whatever he was selling.
00:16:17.220 Do you really think that crooked company was the only company in Canada doing that, the only company paying bribes?
00:16:25.460 And do you think Jerry Diaz was the only person they bribed?
00:16:29.980 Huge country, 10 provinces, 3 territories, public health officers everywhere.
00:16:34.520 Hospitals everywhere, hospitals everywhere, politicians everywhere.
00:16:37.900 Do you think that Jerry Diaz was the only person they approached with a bribe?
00:16:41.840 Just Jerry Diaz.
00:16:42.960 You think so, eh?
00:16:43.620 I think it's right that Unifor is looking into this.
00:16:48.480 Their boss was crooked.
00:16:50.300 But surely there needs to be a serious investigation done independently into who else that company contacted.
00:16:58.520 From MPs and senators to mayors to public health officers themselves to all those annoying TV COVID fear-mongering doctors.
00:17:10.200 Were they all doing what they did out of the goodness of their hearts?
00:17:14.700 Or were they bribed like Jerry Diaz?
00:17:17.020 But back to the union for a moment.
00:17:20.320 There were some people in the union who disagreed with forced vaccinations, obviously.
00:17:26.000 I'd like you to meet John Rakich, a union member for 38 years.
00:17:32.400 I want to show you a video that he made.
00:17:34.260 It's five minutes long, but it's powerful.
00:17:37.960 His line right at the end really connected with me.
00:17:40.200 I watched this video a few months ago when it came out, but I watched it again now, knowing what I know about Jerry Diaz and his bribe.
00:17:49.540 Take a look.
00:17:50.140 It's five minutes, but it'll go by quickly.
00:17:52.120 Take a look.
00:18:00.760 I'm doing this video because I've been asked by a lot of union members to document my experience with the national union.
00:18:08.040 In March of this year, 2021, I was appointed as a coordinator for General Motors for Ergonomics.
00:18:16.000 I had been appointed to that position because I had gained the confidence of my former chairperson who recommended me for that position.
00:18:23.040 So I took that position.
00:18:24.560 I think it was August 23rd.
00:18:26.860 We had a work action at De Havilland and we had to fill out some online paperwork and we had to indicate what our VAC status was.
00:18:34.100 I put on that paperwork that I prefer not to say because that's private medical information.
00:18:39.660 And then on August 23rd, that same day, I was told not to show up for the work action.
00:18:45.340 On August 24th, the union endorsed a statement on VACS mandates for all Unifor staff and events.
00:18:52.420 We had until September 30th to declare our attestation.
00:18:55.260 So on September 30th, I sent the letter, which I have here, to the national union.
00:19:01.080 And I told them that I was not sharing my own private medical information.
00:19:05.540 That was mine.
00:19:06.220 It was protected under privacy laws.
00:19:07.900 I sent that off on the 30th.
00:19:09.720 On October 4th, I received a letter from Jerry Diaz, our national president.
00:19:14.640 And he said, he basically told me that the statutes that I referenced in my letter did not apply at all.
00:19:24.040 And he said that I served, according to the collective agreement, I served under the national president by appointment.
00:19:31.140 And I could be terminated at any time.
00:19:32.980 And then he instructed his assistant to terminate me as of October 8th.
00:19:37.420 So October 8th, I was terminated from the national for not declaring my status.
00:19:42.140 And then I went back into the plan.
00:19:43.640 I think it was on the 12th.
00:19:44.660 It was a Tuesday.
00:19:45.980 And then the 13th, what happened was we heard that General Motors had instituted vaccination mandates as well.
00:19:52.720 Well, I'd like to address all of our union brothers and sisters, vaccinated or unvaccinated,
00:19:57.940 and say that historically the union has fought for all of our rights.
00:20:01.740 And we are not anti-vax people.
00:20:05.960 There are actually a lot of vaccinated people that are taking the position that we're taking
00:20:11.080 and are willing to lose their jobs, believe it or not, because they don't believe in the mandates.
00:20:15.980 They don't believe in people being forced to take a medical procedure against their will.
00:20:20.260 And so to the people that are vaccinated, I would just ask that you look deep in your heart
00:20:25.620 and you look at your fellow employees, those ones that I just mentioned that are young
00:20:29.600 and that have taken on mortgages and have little babies,
00:20:31.700 and really look at them and look deep in your heart and ask yourself,
00:20:37.720 is it right to destroy their lives because they won't take a medical procedure against their will?
00:20:44.720 And at some point in time, vaccinated people as well are going to have to make a decision
00:20:49.280 because if you look deeply inside of Unifor's COVID-19 prevention policy,
00:20:54.980 you'll find that they have basically stated in there, if you work for the national or your coordinator,
00:21:00.780 the moment that public health decrees that you have to have a third booster,
00:21:05.520 then that's going to become part of their policy and a fourth booster and a fifth and a sixth.
00:21:09.240 So where are you going to draw the line?
00:21:11.620 Because we don't see any end to this.
00:21:14.540 So whether you're vaccinated or unvaccinated, we're all auto workers, we're all uniform members
00:21:19.620 and we shouldn't be divided on this issue.
00:21:21.680 We should do what's right.
00:21:23.320 There's a lot of things I'd like to say, but I'll keep this concise.
00:21:26.940 We've heard our national president's statements over and over again about how they've looked at the law
00:21:32.640 and there's nothing they can do about this.
00:21:34.980 And I've talked to a lot of union members and we call BS on this.
00:21:38.440 There was a time when women were not allowed to vote and it was actually against the law,
00:21:43.520 but the law was changed.
00:21:45.320 Just because something is against the law doesn't mean the law is correct.
00:21:49.940 And in this case, we saw that the law was changed.
00:21:53.900 Everybody's familiar with the story of Rosa Parks,
00:21:56.420 where she wouldn't give her seat up for a white person on the bus.
00:22:00.540 That was actually against the law at the time.
00:22:03.980 And so if the activists would have looked at that and said,
00:22:07.100 it's against the law, there's nothing we could do about it,
00:22:10.060 we would still be living with that kind of tyranny and that kind of segregation.
00:22:13.600 I'd like to say to our national executive, to the membership about our national executive,
00:22:20.060 stop making excuses about the law and do what's right.
00:22:23.180 That's what we've always endeavored to do,
00:22:25.760 or that's what we've said we've always endeavored to do.
00:22:28.060 I've been a uniform member or I've been a union member at General Motors for 38 years
00:22:33.020 and we've never heard such garbage come out of our national that there's nothing we can do about it
00:22:39.600 because it's against the law.
00:22:41.200 So a long time ago, a union rep said something to me that was very profound.
00:22:45.220 He said, if the union and the company are saying the same thing, one of them is not necessary.
00:22:50.800 So, yeah, Jerry Diaz took a bribe and the bribe corrupted his office
00:22:54.900 and he did what the bribe payers told him to do.
00:22:58.340 He pushed their COVID products.
00:23:00.460 Of course, that had something to do with his insane decision to abandon 300,000 members
00:23:07.020 and just feed them to the employers.
00:23:10.080 But look at the case of John Rakich where Jerry Diaz himself personally stepped in to fire the guy unilaterally.
00:23:18.060 Now, back when it happened, it just looked like Jerry Diaz was running errands for Justin Trudeau.
00:23:24.340 Jerry Diaz was a top-down bully.
00:23:26.560 He's a bit of a tyrant.
00:23:27.440 He's uninterested in other points of view.
00:23:30.600 It was rough and unfair, but I don't know.
00:23:33.200 Maybe it was just his legitimate point of view.
00:23:35.880 But now it looks very, very different, doesn't it?
00:23:37.760 Now it looks like Jerry Diaz infected every decision made by Unifor these past two years during the pandemic.
00:23:45.140 Who was fired and who wasn't?
00:23:47.160 Whose grievance was accepted by the union and whose was thrown out by the union.
00:23:52.440 Thousands of people's lives were changed directly or indirectly because of Jerry Diaz.
00:23:58.700 Who we now know made decisions based on a bribe.
00:24:03.640 Every one of those decisions needs to be redone.
00:24:06.640 It would be as if you discovered a judge was accepting money from prosecutors to convict a bunch of people.
00:24:13.000 You would let them out of jail and do the trial over again, wouldn't you?
00:24:16.440 Because in that way, Jerry Diaz wasn't just another political activist.
00:24:21.320 He was a quasi-judicial power.
00:24:23.900 He had a public duty.
00:24:25.560 It wasn't just a duty to Unifor itself.
00:24:27.840 It was a public role he was placing.
00:24:29.720 He was like a mini-judge.
00:24:33.000 He took union dues from people.
00:24:35.140 He had the power to act within the collective agreement.
00:24:38.140 He promised to uphold his members' rights, but he secretly took other money for other interests, and he violated his members' rights.
00:24:46.780 These need to be done over again.
00:24:49.240 And maybe that's why the union is being so secretive, why they had their cover-up for weeks, claiming it was just a health issue.
00:25:02.940 Maybe that's why they're not saying who the bribe-payer is.
00:25:07.760 What else are they covering up?
00:25:10.860 Who else was in on it?
00:25:13.720 Is Unifor, are they deleting records?
00:25:16.060 Are they purging their computers and servers of the evidence, Hillary Clinton style?
00:25:21.800 Or are they deleting emails to and from Jerry Diaz?
00:25:26.980 Emails that might show the extent of what he did and how that affected his decisions.
00:25:33.860 I want to see what Canada's labor minister had to say.
00:25:38.240 Well, that was a mistake.
00:25:39.060 He's one of the stupidest men in Parliament.
00:25:40.780 Seamus O'Regan is his name.
00:25:43.060 Not a peep on all of this.
00:25:44.620 In fact, this is the last thing I could see him mentioning about Jerry Diaz.
00:25:50.580 A lot of people who'd been working closely together during the height of COVID are now seeing each other for the first time in years.
00:25:57.880 Count me in, Jerry Diaz among them.
00:26:00.260 Great to see you again, Jerry.
00:26:02.500 No question workers will lead the way in this recovery.
00:26:05.900 They're friends.
00:26:06.700 They're chums.
00:26:07.440 They're in it together.
00:26:10.660 Seamus O'Regan didn't take any money, did he?
00:26:12.720 I mean, just asking.
00:26:16.200 Jerry Diaz makes sure the 300,000 union members serve the liberal government's purposes, not the other way around.
00:26:26.100 As John Rakich told us, if the union and the company are saying the same thing, one of them isn't needed.
00:26:35.360 Stay with us for more.
00:26:36.400 Well, I like to think that if we were in the United States, the First Amendment of their Bill of Rights would give us more legal defenses against government censorship than we have in Canada with our weaker charter of rights and our obedient courts.
00:27:03.220 But sometimes I look at how the U.S. is treating the most effective journalists down there.
00:27:09.200 I think, for example, Project Veritas that specializes in undercover stings.
00:27:14.900 And I wonder, because look at this video recently released by James O'Keefe, the boss of Project Veritas.
00:27:21.680 I think this is even crazier than what we put up with here in Canada.
00:27:25.740 Take a look.
00:27:27.220 Project Veritas has just obtained documents showing the SDNY was spying on Project Veritas journalists well before the FBI raided the homes of our journalists last November,
00:27:39.300 secretly reading our emails, concealing that from a court in our case against the SDNY.
00:27:44.680 In November 2021, the FBI raids our homes and seizes 47 electronic devices, including cell phones, laptops and thumb drives.
00:27:56.580 Within five days, U.S. District Court Judge Annalisa Torres ordered the Southern District of New York to pause its review of my devices.
00:28:04.660 And within a month, ordered the SDNY to turn our seized materials over to a special master who had supervised the SDNY's review to protect our First Amendment and journalistic privileges.
00:28:15.320 Recently obtained legal documents from Microsoft Corporation reveal that despite Judge Torres' orders between November 2020 and April 2021,
00:28:27.740 the Department of Justice went to six magistrates and obtained a series of secret warrants, orders and a cepeda to surreptitiously collect privileged communications and contacts of eight American journalists, myself included, from Microsoft.
00:28:44.240 The DOJ even sought and obtained numerous secrecy orders preventing Microsoft from disclosing the surveillance to anyone.
00:28:52.960 The SDNY also went around Judge Torres and the special master and obtained two secrecy orders after the special master had been appointed.
00:29:02.640 The SDNY's surveillance of Project Veritas journalists was done as part of the DOJ's unprecedented investigation into Ashley Biden's diary.
00:29:11.020 The documents collected from these email accounts date back as far as January 2020, eight months before we even knew the diary existed.
00:29:20.720 While the special master litigation proceeded, the government apparently misled the court by omission, by not disclosing that it had already obtained other privileged materials.
00:29:30.920 The SDNY was ordered to turn over all materials to the special master.
00:29:35.060 They didn't.
00:29:35.920 The SDNY was ordered to stop reviewing our materials.
00:29:39.080 They didn't.
00:29:39.620 The SDNY has an obligation to be honest with the court.
00:29:44.480 They weren't.
00:29:45.860 Absolutely shocking.
00:29:47.020 Just for your information, SDNY sends for the Southern District of New York.
00:29:52.160 DOJ, of course, is the U.S. Department of Justice, and you know the FBI.
00:29:56.700 Well, that's just absolutely shocking.
00:29:58.760 And joining us now via Skype from Project Veritas headquarters is R.C.
00:30:04.540 Maxwell, the Press Secretary to that organization.
00:30:07.780 R.C., what a pleasure to meet you.
00:30:08.800 Thanks for taking the time to be with us.
00:30:11.280 Let's just slow down for a second.
00:30:12.880 This is all about a diary, a diary of someone named Ashley Biden.
00:30:20.820 What's her connection to Joe Biden?
00:30:22.420 Well, thanks for having me on, Ezra.
00:30:25.740 And, you know, this is unprecedented action here by the United States government.
00:30:30.500 Just to take your audience back, Ashley Biden is the daughter of then presidential candidate Joe Biden.
00:30:38.020 Project Veritas was sought after by a tipster who told us that they were in possession of a diary and that the contents of it are newsworthy.
00:30:46.380 We obtained the diary as many news organizations would, and we attempted to corroborate the details of the diary.
00:30:54.660 We could not.
00:30:55.820 We then turned the diary over to law enforcement.
00:30:59.500 And many of your audience may know that as a result of our journalistic action, President Biden's DOJ decided to execute search warrants on the homes of journalists, a trio of journalists, including our founder, CEO James O'Keefe.
00:31:13.300 Now, that's a problem here in this country because journalists are afforded journalistic privilege.
00:31:18.940 This is something that would not happen to The New York Times or to CNN.
00:31:22.280 It has happened to us.
00:31:23.800 And as you just saw, we have just learned that despite those unheralded action, the Department of Justice went a step further and secretly obtained our emails, hundreds of thousands of email documents, our journalist source contacts, even our Uber information.
00:31:39.420 They did this secretly.
00:31:40.520 They used a gag order to bound Microsoft to secrecy.
00:31:44.600 And this is a problem because a federal judge told them that everything must go through a filter team and that they must use a supervisor known as a special master to oversee their investigation of us because we do have journalistic privilege.
00:31:58.480 The DOJ didn't think we had journalistic privilege.
00:32:00.960 A judge rejected that argument, and it seems the DOJ has decided to continue to go behind that judge's back and seek gag orders to bind Microsoft to secrecy.
00:32:10.540 And thankfully, they told us what the government was up to.
00:32:13.320 So how did you actually find out?
00:32:15.580 Because I saw on the screen there in that very well-produced segment by James O'Keefe that Microsoft was told, don't tell anyone we're going through your customers' records.
00:32:26.220 Are you able to tell us how you were tipped off to that?
00:32:29.500 Because that terrifies me.
00:32:30.800 Who knows if our own RCMP is going through all of our emails with a similar order?
00:32:36.540 Who let you know that these shenanigans were afoot?
00:32:39.080 Are you able to say?
00:32:40.580 I am able to say that it was Microsoft, someone high-ranking within Microsoft Corporation, and someone within their legal team.
00:32:48.740 What they actually disclosed to us, they gave us an unfiled motion, something that they used for internal purposes.
00:32:54.520 They gave us access to that motion, and in that motion, Microsoft let the Department of Justice have it.
00:33:00.480 They said this is problematic action.
00:33:02.840 They pointed to the very highly criticized action of the DOJ in November for raiding us.
00:33:09.140 They pointed to that action and said, see, we told you there was a problem with this.
00:33:12.960 This is proof of that.
00:33:14.040 We want to immediately go and let our client know.
00:33:16.380 And they did so to us within hours because the Department of Justice relented.
00:33:20.520 And they relented because they know they have no grounds to continue seeking gag orders on a tech corporation to seek journalistic privileged communication.
00:33:29.440 So this could be happening in Canada because if it's happening in the United States to a multimillion-dollar media company, it could certainly happen to the average everyday citizen.
00:33:39.240 That's incredible.
00:33:39.760 Now, the fact that Ashley Biden, the president's daughter, it's her diary in question, it immediately makes me think of Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, whose laptop was a stunning trove of shocking e-mails and photographs and videos and just it was incredible.
00:34:02.100 And we saw the tech companies censor that when the New York Post broke that story shortly before the 2020 elections, Twitter and others kicked into gear, suspended the account of the New York Post, one of the oldest newspapers in America.
00:34:16.960 And you saw dozens of people, I call it the deep state, like former CIA and intelligence directors saying, no, no, that's just Russian disinformation.
00:34:24.800 They managed to stop that Hunter Biden laptop from becoming widely discussed.
00:34:31.780 I don't know if it would have turned the U.S. election, but it was certainly damaging.
00:34:35.780 I immediately think of that when I hear that the president's daughter has a diary, too.
00:34:42.980 Are you able to or have others or has Project Veritas, you say you tried to corroborate what was in the diary.
00:34:50.800 Are you able to say what was in the diary that you thought was in the public interest?
00:34:56.180 Well, you know, apparently by the virtue of these investigations and actions from the Department of Justice, we can only assume the diary is real.
00:35:05.460 And, you know, the contents, you know, it's not only that we couldn't authenticate the diary.
00:35:10.280 It's also that, you know, you can't authenticate the events being described in the diary.
00:35:15.420 It's very salacious stuff.
00:35:17.020 I'm not sure I'm comfortable speaking about this stuff over the air.
00:35:19.900 However, you know, it's almost we were put in a position, what are we supposed to do?
00:35:25.320 We turned the diary over to authorities, and that apparently was not good enough.
00:35:29.760 You talk about the laptop with Hunter Biden.
00:35:32.620 I mean, that was something that The New York Times apparently recently has now acknowledged as legitimate.
00:35:38.360 So The New York Times also acknowledged that the DOJ's action on us was highly unusual.
00:35:43.960 So you're seeing kind of a consensus formed on some of these issues.
00:35:48.600 And hopefully we need more journalists, more individuals, the freedom of press crowd.
00:35:53.180 We need them to speak up on this.
00:35:55.560 R.C., if this were to have happened, you say it doesn't happen to CNN and The New York Times.
00:36:00.000 Of course, I believe you.
00:36:00.780 They wouldn't stand for it, as you are not standing for it.
00:36:05.640 But I believe that if the FBI had raided the homes and the Southern District of New York had got all these secret warrants or orders to spy, I believe you would have heard from, for example, the ACLU, the American Civil Liberties Union.
00:36:21.120 I believe you would have heard from all sorts of journalism professors, ethics professors.
00:36:25.860 There would have been calls for inquiries, judicial inquiries, maybe a congressional inquiry.
00:36:32.940 A lot of people who care about the independence of journalists and protecting the First Amendment would have been rightfully outraged had this happened to, say, CNN or The New York Times.
00:36:42.900 Have you at Project Veritas received any support from free speech groups or journalistic groups?
00:36:50.960 Have they come to your aid in a way that we know they would have come to the aid of CNN?
00:36:55.860 Well, that's a good question, Ezra.
00:36:57.660 It would be nice to see more support from some of these organizations.
00:37:02.220 Some of these organizations, however, have spoke up in our support.
00:37:05.300 The American Civil Liberties Union yesterday issuing a statement calling for the Department of Justice to immediately halt their review of seized devices and communications,
00:37:17.260 calling this a suppression, excuse me, of these warrants unprecedented action.
00:37:23.340 In the past, the Reporters Committee actually filed something to the court on our behalf, calling for more transparency on this matter.
00:37:32.360 But again, it would be great to see more support, the Office of Government Accountability.
00:37:36.980 There's a litany of other freedom of press.
00:37:38.940 There are dozens of these or so organizations, and they have not spoken up on our behalf.
00:37:43.380 And aside from a few individuals in the media, which I do give them credit, mainstream media journalists have spoken about this matter, there's been largely silence on this.
00:37:53.060 So I hope other reporters who are listening to this is aware that, you know, the pendulum often swings back and forth.
00:38:00.060 There's always going to be someone who is in charge of government who, quote, may see your activities as a threat.
00:38:05.920 But and other journalists just speak up about this.
00:38:08.400 This is an abridgment to the First Amendment.
00:38:10.880 And if they don't speak up on this, they will be next.
00:38:13.880 Well, you're so right.
00:38:14.900 I have to tell you, I am pleasantly surprised to hear that the ACLU and the Reporters Committee have said something.
00:38:20.320 And that's better than nothing.
00:38:21.320 And that's better than what we get up here in Canada.
00:38:24.500 We have another clip.
00:38:25.920 There was a little bit in that presentation that we showed, narrated by James O'Keefe.
00:38:31.720 Here's a little bit more for our viewers of the FBI raid.
00:38:35.520 And I find this terrifying.
00:38:36.860 I mean, I should just say, if there's any Canadian Mounties watching, I have no files at home.
00:38:42.720 I don't take my work at home.
00:38:44.340 So please don't raid my home.
00:38:46.800 Don't raid our office either, by the way.
00:38:48.460 But I should just tell you in advance, don't come to my home.
00:38:50.600 So here's a clip shocking of the FBI raid in progress.
00:38:55.300 Let's just take a look.
00:38:55.960 Let me see your hand.
00:38:58.440 Let me see your hand.
00:38:59.560 Yes, my hand.
00:39:00.960 I'm here with you.
00:39:04.420 So for our safety for years, we're going to have a good sleep with you.
00:39:08.220 Yeah.
00:39:08.740 You do not have to breathe in.
00:39:09.880 You are not being in safety.
00:39:12.540 Yeah, we're supposed to see.
00:39:14.180 Okay.
00:39:14.760 There's a computer here.
00:39:15.960 Are you comfortable on that?
00:39:20.560 Yeah, I'm fine.
00:39:21.540 So there's another team coming up.
00:39:27.100 Yeah.
00:39:27.760 So we're able to step up until I hear you laugh.
00:39:30.760 Unbelievable.
00:39:31.560 I think that was a kitchen there.
00:39:32.740 Imagine storming in the house.
00:39:33.920 It sounds like there's other family members there.
00:39:36.380 Hands up.
00:39:36.980 Hands up.
00:39:37.580 Where?
00:39:37.740 Let me see your hands.
00:39:38.840 Just absolutely shocking and terrifying.
00:39:42.540 You know, Russia's in the news a lot these days.
00:39:45.480 That looks like something that would be done to a independent news organization or an independent
00:39:51.200 political party in Russia.
00:39:52.640 The fact that that's happening in New York is shocking to me, and I think it should shock
00:39:58.360 everyone who cares about freedom.
00:40:00.680 Absolutely.
00:40:01.380 I mean, the images speak for themselves.
00:40:03.800 I mean, you pointed to the hands up, hands up, which kind of demonstrates that in a moment's
00:40:08.360 notice, anything is possible.
00:40:10.560 But in addition to that, you see officers with their hands clutched on their weapons.
00:40:16.240 I mean, this is an American journalist here.
00:40:18.620 This is an American journalist who would have willfully showed up at any court proceeding
00:40:22.380 and surrendered information if that's what it came to.
00:40:25.820 So this is your right to say this is not the kind of treatment you would see from in America.
00:40:30.360 You also have to consider, Ezra, the Department of Justice, Merrick Garland, the attorney general,
00:40:36.720 just eight months ago, did a whole rollout on new guidelines and how the press would be
00:40:42.080 treated.
00:40:42.840 And he talked about how, you know, there would be certain tactics that wouldn't be used against
00:40:47.640 journalists.
00:40:48.260 Well, look at the tactics that were used against these journalists.
00:40:51.420 It seems that Merrick Garland needs to answer for himself on this matter because he can't
00:40:55.760 have it both ways and pretend to protect press freedom and at the same time have a pre-dawn
00:41:01.740 raid, show me your hands with hands clutched on weapons.
00:41:06.040 Unbelievable.
00:41:06.820 Well, R.C., it's such a pleasure to meet you.
00:41:09.220 Thank you.
00:41:09.620 We're fans of Project Veritas and have followed your successes over the years.
00:41:14.480 I hope we can have you on again.
00:41:16.280 You guys are always the front line, not only of journalism, but then defending that journalism.
00:41:22.940 I remember last time I spoke to James O'Keefe, he told me just how much time and money you
00:41:28.560 guys have to spend defending your right to do journalism.
00:41:32.520 And we wish you great success.
00:41:34.660 What's the best way for us to follow this?
00:41:36.200 What's Project Veritas' best website?
00:41:39.940 Project Veritas, we are still on Telegram.
00:41:42.760 We're on some social media.
00:41:44.120 We're banned on Twitter.
00:41:45.300 But you can find all of our stories directly at projectveritas.com.
00:41:49.920 So, Ezra, thanks for having me on, and it's good to see Rebel News is still surviving.
00:41:53.680 Right on.
00:41:54.200 Thanks, my friend.
00:41:54.960 Well, you keep up the great work down there, and all the best to your team.
00:41:58.720 We have it, R.C.
00:41:59.780 Maxwell, press secretary for Project Veritas.
00:42:02.440 Stay with us.
00:42:03.000 More ahead.
00:42:03.360 Hey, welcome back to your viewer mail.
00:42:17.420 Matthew Cowan says the Quebec government is telling their health care system to prepare
00:42:22.680 for an incoming sixth wave and begin campaigning and preparing for fourth doses due to the
00:42:29.760 B.A.2 Omicron subvariant.
00:42:34.540 Yeah, it wouldn't shock me at all, but as we showed you the other day, the Quebec government
00:42:38.540 announced a curfew.
00:42:40.540 They just made the political decision, and then they hunted around for some medical justification.
00:42:44.700 They couldn't find a single person to justify it.
00:42:46.720 The Quebec government's out of control.
00:42:47.940 But I don't know if you remember, we used to have Eric Duhem on from time to time.
00:42:52.340 He's now the leader of the Quebec Conservative Party that is now in second place.
00:42:56.540 And he is probably the party leader in Canada.
00:42:59.500 He's got one seat in the National Assembly there.
00:43:04.240 Other than Maxime Bernier, who doesn't have any seats in the People's Party, Eric Duhem is
00:43:09.960 the most principled, vocal, and relentless opponent of lockdowns in this country.
00:43:15.760 It's incredible to watch.
00:43:17.020 He's got 55,000 members of his party in Quebec, which would be like 200,000 nationally, proportionately.
00:43:25.680 He's extremely principled.
00:43:27.220 He's very smart.
00:43:28.820 He's a great communicator.
00:43:30.160 And he is in second place in the polls.
00:43:33.180 I'm very excited by him.
00:43:35.740 Pablo Rojas says, nice haircut, Ezra.
00:43:41.300 Fauci is on the decline for being a charlatan.
00:43:44.480 You know what?
00:43:46.080 It's very generous of you, very charitable of you to say this is a nice haircut.
00:43:50.420 I will accept that compliment.
00:43:52.400 And I think you're overdoing it, though.
00:43:55.580 But thank you.
00:43:56.140 I think the Democrats don't know what to do with Fauci, because on the one hand, if they
00:44:01.060 keep this lockdown fear mongering, they're going to I think they're going to get really
00:44:04.440 punished by voters in the fall.
00:44:06.200 On the other hand, as we've just discussed with Jerry Diaz, it's such a huge business for
00:44:10.600 so many of them and not just the financial business, the celebrity.
00:44:14.600 Don't think that Anthony Fauci isn't having the time of his life.
00:44:17.360 He's living his best life.
00:44:19.280 He's a star.
00:44:20.400 I've even heard him described as a sex symbol.
00:44:22.820 You think he wants to stop talking about COVID?
00:44:26.000 Christopher McDonald says Marxists are using a vulnerable group to push their agenda.
00:44:31.020 They don't care about trans people.
00:44:34.200 I think you're probably right.
00:44:35.640 I think they're just looking to pit us against each other and also to distract us from more
00:44:40.100 important things.
00:44:41.660 That's our show for today.
00:44:43.300 Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home,
00:44:46.620 goodnight, keep fighting for freedom.
00:44:49.120 And let me leave you with this video of the day from Sid.
00:44:52.660 Very strange case.
00:44:54.640 A bus catches fire right behind Pastor Arthur Pavlovsky's church.
00:44:59.980 That don't seem right.
00:45:01.340 Here, take a look at the video.
00:45:02.500 I'll see you tomorrow.
00:45:02.980 My wife runs the daycare downstairs, and I was walking upstairs, and I noticed kind of
00:45:12.180 a shadow of a flame.
00:45:13.500 So it was a bit strange to me.
00:45:15.080 So I came out, just opened the door, and all I saw was an infant was straight on my face.
00:45:21.740 So I had to kind of slam the door, because I was a bit shocked.
00:45:27.220 The whole place was, the whole car was on flames.
00:45:30.180 So I closed it, called 911, went downstairs, got a kit, evacuated, and then the rest is history.
00:45:39.060 Sidney Fizard with Rebel News here, and we're at the scene of the crime, it seems.
00:45:42.420 We're at Pastor Arthur Pavlovsky's church.
00:45:44.420 Pastor Arthur Pavlovsky, as you may know, remains behind bars.
00:45:46.860 It's been over 40 days now.
00:45:48.660 There was a bail hearing, I believe, today that took place in Lethbridge.
00:45:52.100 But as you can see behind me, it appears the school bus behind Pastor Arthur Pavlovsky's
00:45:55.580 church has been set ablaze.
00:45:57.680 There is speculation that this was an arson attack, especially given in the past that
00:46:01.220 the Pavlovskys have had to deal with arson attacks previously.
00:46:04.380 But as well, it's been claimed that this was caused by four children under the age of 10
00:46:08.060 who went into the bus and proceeded to play with matches, and unintentionally started a
00:46:12.220 fire they could not control.
00:46:13.520 The school bus belonged to a daycare that shares a building with Pastor Arthur Pavlovsky's
00:46:17.660 church.
00:46:18.180 Though the daycare operates without affiliation with Pastor Arthur Pavlovsky and the church,
00:46:21.720 but nonetheless, this church building facilitates both, and if one were to be set ablaze, both
00:46:26.200 would be set ablaze.
00:46:27.160 And you can see just how close the school bus is to the church.
00:46:30.640 It was a very close call.
00:46:31.920 That could have lit up the building.
00:46:33.500 Thank God it didn't, I guess you could say.
00:46:35.060 But we're going to keep you guys up to date.
00:46:36.360 We're going to hear from the Pavlovskys themselves what they make of what we're seeing behind us.
00:46:40.060 Well, I know that the school bus behind our church caught on fire, or was set on fire,
00:46:48.000 more likely because, I mean, how fast it burned, and just from the looks of it, it was not
00:46:58.400 an accident.
00:46:59.580 It looked very purposeful, like it was arson.
00:47:01.760 But I'm not sure why anyone would do that.
00:47:07.800 I mean, I can assume that it was a hate-motivated attack.
00:47:13.440 We have seen many churches in the last year attacked and vandalized.
00:47:19.620 So I believe it was a hate-motivated attack, and it could also be constituted as attempted
00:47:28.380 murder because, I mean, that church also has daycare in the basement sometimes, and it's
00:47:34.600 a church.
00:47:35.240 So the building could have easily caught on fire, and people could have gotten hurt or
00:47:40.780 died.
00:47:41.280 So it's absolutely horrible.
00:47:44.980 Jason Kenney, of course, put out his recent announcement where he was investing in religious
00:47:49.140 infrastructure.
00:47:49.940 And today, Alberta's government is keeping a commitment to help groups protect themselves
00:47:55.640 from hate-motivated crimes.
00:47:58.040 The Alberta Security Infrastructure Program will provide funds to vulnerable community
00:48:03.980 facilities that have experienced or are at risk of being targeted by violence or vandalism.
00:48:12.280 This funding will help to pay for security enhancements to their facilities and to provide
00:48:17.980 training for their staff.
00:48:19.880 So I'm pleased to be here today to announce that the Security Infrastructure Program is
00:48:25.220 being expanded to a $5 million a year program.
00:48:29.460 I guess none of that really helped in your case.
00:48:32.580 No, and well, I hope that he can help us out.
00:48:37.540 I mean, obviously, this is an attack on a church, if it isn't deemed an accident, which I very
00:48:47.100 highly doubt from the looks of it that it was an accident.
00:48:50.060 So that means it was a hate-motivated attack on a church.
00:48:53.540 So I'm looking forward to Jason Kenney making a statement about that, about Pastor Archer's
00:48:59.180 Church being attacked, once again, this time by arsonists.
00:49:05.420 So I look forward to his contributions to our protection and what he'll say and do about that.
00:49:12.740 In the scenario that it was an accident, what would your message be in that case?
00:49:17.280 Well, if it is an accident, then I'm very glad that the church did not catch on fire, that
00:49:27.400 nobody was hurt by the situation.
00:49:30.960 And yeah, I just, I hope nothing like this happens again.
00:49:35.300 I'm very, very, very pleased that nobody was hurt.
00:49:38.460 And of course, like I mentioned, Pastor Archer Palowski remains behind bars.
00:49:41.800 This is over 40 days now.
00:49:43.240 And what does he get for that?
00:49:44.860 He gets a burnt up school bus that could have taken down this building if things weren't
00:49:49.580 as timely as the response seems to have been.
00:49:53.360 So if you want to help them and their legal defense right now, you go to savearter.com.
00:49:57.180 I know the family would appreciate your support, especially in times like this.
00:50:00.720 And we're going to stay tuned.
00:50:01.580 We're going to see exactly what happens with this, but that'll be for another update.
00:50:04.980 I want to thank you guys for tuning in.
00:50:06.080 For Rebel News, I'm Sidney Bizarre.
00:50:14.860 We'll see you next time.
