Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hello, my Rebels. Welcome to the podcast today.
00:00:04.000 Today, I take you through the latest from Parliament's Justice Committee.
00:00:07.580 What are they working on over there, the Justice Committee?
00:00:09.500 I'll tell you what they're working on. They're working on censorship.
00:00:12.020 They're working on bringing back the Section 13 censorship provision from the Human Rights Act.
00:00:17.000 They're working on establishing a national registry of hate.
00:00:21.080 Yeah, good luck trying to understand that.
00:00:23.820 I go through it a bit, and I hope you enjoy it.
00:00:26.100 But before I get out of the way, can you do me a favor and go to the rebel.media slash shows
00:00:30.260 and become a premium subscriber?
00:00:33.160 And you get the video version of this podcast and access to other podcasts in video form.
00:00:40.320 Actually, other videos. David Menzies, Sheila Gunn-Reed.
00:00:44.360 And, of course, it helps us out. We get the eight bucks a month.
00:00:46.820 That's not that much money, I think.
00:00:49.120 All right, without further ado, here's the podcast.
00:00:52.260 You're listening to a Rebel Media podcast.
00:00:54.680 Tonight, you've heard about a national gun registry.
00:00:58.780 Now the liberals are talking about a national hate registry.
00:01:02.260 It's June 28th, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.
00:01:06.680 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:01:10.340 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.
00:01:14.420 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it
00:01:17.940 is because it's my bloody right to do so.
00:01:20.260 Look, I know there are a lot of important things going on in the world right now.
00:01:28.960 I think the presidential debates in the U.S. Democratic Party are very interesting
00:01:32.580 and could obviously, potentially, have a large impact on us up here in Canada, too.
00:01:38.280 The G20 meeting is happening right now in Japan.
00:01:41.220 That's important.
00:01:42.280 What's going to happen with China?
00:01:43.460 Will the United States and China do a trade deal, or will their trade war deepen?
00:01:48.620 Will Trump really help Justin Trudeau get our hostages back from China
00:01:52.320 instead of using all of his political capital for the benefit of his own country?
00:01:56.220 I don't know.
00:01:57.080 I saw the other day that Justin Trudeau and Catherine McKenna
00:01:59.000 had done a virtue signaling deal with the state of California,
00:02:03.120 which is run by a hard left-wing Democrat.
00:02:05.640 So it's some global warming deal.
00:02:08.280 Lots of noise, no substance, obviously.
00:02:10.660 Other than rubbing Trump's nose in it again, there's no other reason to do that deal.
00:02:15.880 Sort of like Trudeau did, I don't know if you remember this,
00:02:18.000 when he had his bet with Nancy Pelosi on the NBA championships.
00:02:22.600 Why would a prime minister of Canada, our head of government,
00:02:26.480 have a bet with the Speaker of the House in the States as opposed to the President?
00:02:30.900 They're head of government.
00:02:33.700 It would be like if Donald Trump had a bet with Canada,
00:02:36.120 but instead of betting Trudeau, he'd bet Andrew Scheer.
00:02:39.360 It's obvious what that's about.
00:02:41.040 Just like Trudeau's weird deal with the Democrats of California,
00:02:43.540 it's all about snubbing Trump.
00:02:44.780 So yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if at the G20 Trump said,
00:02:48.020 hey, Justin, why don't you talk to Nancy Pelosi?
00:02:51.000 Have her call China for you.
00:02:52.240 Or talk to the government of California.
00:02:53.880 He can call China for you, Justin, since they're your true close friends.
00:02:58.200 Lots of things to talk about these days.
00:02:59.400 Lots of things about the carbon tax, the court rulings on the legality of it.
00:03:05.600 Catherine McKenna scolded the Premier of New Brunswick over it for 10 full minutes.
00:03:10.620 Can you imagine thinking you can scold your way into re-election,
00:03:14.480 scolding people because they don't like paying a tax?
00:03:16.640 Anyways, my point here is to show you that the world is full of news these days,
00:03:20.400 and today in particular.
00:03:21.200 Now, I do truly believe, despite that,
00:03:24.020 that the most pressing news right now in Canada
00:03:26.420 is the stampede towards censorship here and other parts of the world too.
00:03:31.720 The only democracy in which it's slipping away, freedom of speech,
00:03:34.820 is slipping away faster than here is New Zealand,
00:03:37.900 which is actually infecting the rest of the world with their extreme censorship.
00:03:42.140 I showed you the other day the speech by the UN Secretary General
00:03:44.960 calling for global monitoring of social media
00:03:48.180 with a crackdown on what he considers hateful,
00:03:51.700 but the UN admits they have no objective definition of hate speech,
00:03:55.340 but they said it includes anything contrary to UN programs.
00:03:59.500 And of course, the real power,
00:04:01.620 as Gutierrez's speech at the UN made clear,
00:04:03.740 was those tech companies themselves
00:04:05.140 who will be forced to do the censoring.
00:04:08.160 I don't know if you've been following it,
00:04:09.460 but our friend James O'Keefe at Project Veritas
00:04:11.660 has released videos of Google executives saying
00:04:14.420 they plan to use their massive control over information
00:04:17.220 to fight against Trump's re-election in 2020.
00:04:19.860 So it looks like they don't particularly need a lot of pressure
00:04:22.380 from the UN or New Zealand or whomever anyways.
00:04:25.540 But it must be said that our own Justin Trudeau
00:04:27.820 is in the first rank of censors around the world.
00:04:29.980 Let me show you a couple of new items.
00:04:32.840 Look at this.
00:04:33.540 It's a new report by the Public Safety Department of Canada.
00:04:37.940 That's our version of the U.S. Homeland Security Agency.
00:04:41.500 So this, as you can see,
00:04:43.500 is a report by the Canada Center for Community Engagement
00:04:46.220 and Prevention of Violence.
00:04:48.960 Now, I read through this document,
00:04:50.280 and nowhere does it mention Islamic extremism
00:04:53.660 or the 100-plus ISIS terrorists
00:04:55.800 who were recruited in Canada,
00:04:57.580 went to Syria, committed murder, rape, other war crimes,
00:05:01.700 and many of whom have returned to Canada.
00:05:04.120 There's no mention of them.
00:05:05.240 No mentions of radical mosques.
00:05:08.720 Those words appear nowhere in this report.
00:05:12.000 But look at what does appear in that report.
00:05:15.400 While focusing on educating leaders,
00:05:17.520 service providers who work with youth
00:05:19.060 also ensure better controls on media.
00:05:22.300 This is their to-do list.
00:05:24.120 Ensure better controls on media, e.g. rebel,
00:05:27.920 and social media, Facebook and Twitter,
00:05:30.980 and their hate-inciting communications.
00:05:33.060 The liberal government believes in better controls on the media.
00:05:39.620 And the only example they give is us
00:05:42.080 and our hate-inciting communications.
00:05:44.880 What does that even mean?
00:05:45.740 What's the definition of that?
00:05:47.400 What better controls are they even talking about?
00:05:50.880 Well, the U.N. itself doesn't define it.
00:05:52.640 And that's the point.
00:05:53.400 If they don't define it,
00:05:54.660 then they can have it mean whatever they want it to mean
00:05:57.080 at any given moment.
00:05:57.900 It's not a rule, then, is it?
00:05:59.160 It's an unlimited power
00:06:00.260 based on any individual's whims.
00:06:02.280 And Trudeau deeply, deeply hates the rebels.
00:06:04.660 So that's one official document
00:06:06.460 by Goodale's Public Security Department.
00:06:09.160 No mention of actual terrorists,
00:06:10.740 but a call to control media of patriotic Canadians.
00:06:14.440 Look at this story in the Hill Times.
00:06:16.020 House Justice Committee echoes calls
00:06:18.960 for a national database to track hate online.
00:06:23.600 Making the database a reality
00:06:24.820 to get a more accurate picture of the scale of the issue
00:06:27.120 might involve encouraging police forces
00:06:29.100 to work with organizations
00:06:30.120 that may already be collecting their own data,
00:06:32.660 says Chair and Liberal MP Anthony Housefather.
00:06:36.080 You'll remember Anthony Housefather.
00:06:37.940 He's Trudeau's puppet on the Justice Committee,
00:06:40.340 the one who shut down any further inquiries
00:06:42.580 into Trudeau firing Jody Wilson-Raybould
00:06:45.580 as Attorney General,
00:06:47.020 punishing her for opposing his idea
00:06:50.040 to let his corrupt Quebec cronies
00:06:51.640 at SNC-Leveland off the hook.
00:06:53.360 So what's Anthony Housefather up to now?
00:06:55.280 What rule of law, what liberties
00:06:56.840 is he undermining now?
00:06:58.880 Well, nothing less than a national database
00:07:00.840 to track hate.
00:07:02.340 That's what he's proposing.
00:07:03.220 I'll read a little bit from the story.
00:07:05.920 Setting up a national database
00:07:07.380 to track hate crime incidents,
00:07:10.000 to tackle the spread of hateful content
00:07:12.260 across the country,
00:07:13.560 is a no-brainer,
00:07:14.720 says one expert,
00:07:16.360 while a Liberal MP says
00:07:17.540 it may not be an easy fix.
00:07:19.160 Okay, well, hang on, hang on.
00:07:20.100 Stuff her said, which one is it?
00:07:21.280 Hate crimes, they mentioned.
00:07:22.640 I get that, I think.
00:07:24.040 That's beating someone up
00:07:25.080 because they're black
00:07:25.800 or vandalizing a synagogue
00:07:27.420 because it's Jewish.
00:07:29.340 So it's a crime.
00:07:30.500 That's the crime part of hate crime.
00:07:32.660 And it's motivated by some bigotry.
00:07:34.260 I get it.
00:07:35.780 But did you see the second part there?
00:07:38.240 Hateful content.
00:07:40.560 Hang on.
00:07:41.120 Content, they mean words.
00:07:42.620 That's the weird way of saying words or pictures.
00:07:46.340 So we're not talking about crimes anymore.
00:07:48.180 Hateful content,
00:07:49.500 they mean opinions that they don't like.
00:07:52.580 Opinions they hate,
00:07:53.660 or maybe opinions they think
00:07:54.960 are spoken from hate.
00:07:56.300 But you see,
00:07:56.780 hate is a natural human emotion.
00:07:58.680 It's not a crime.
00:08:00.560 But they're blending it in with real crimes
00:08:02.160 because they're trying to use the criminal law
00:08:04.080 that we all agree should be used
00:08:05.500 to stop violence.
00:08:06.860 Well, they're trying to use it
00:08:08.200 to stop feelings now.
00:08:10.020 That's what they're doing.
00:08:11.700 Here's that idiot house father.
00:08:12.920 He said,
00:08:14.340 One of the things that is clear
00:08:15.380 from what we heard
00:08:16.320 was that there's an incredible gap
00:08:18.240 in data collection,
00:08:19.340 said the Burl M.P. Anthony house father,
00:08:21.060 who chairs the House Justice Committee
00:08:22.720 in a phone interview.
00:08:24.100 There needs to be a way
00:08:25.580 to have a collection of data
00:08:26.920 that uses consistent definitions
00:08:28.720 and compiles statistics
00:08:30.260 from across the country
00:08:31.220 and makes people feel comfortable
00:08:32.820 in actually reporting
00:08:33.960 what they experience.
00:08:34.780 Well, hang on.
00:08:37.100 Police already do gather data
00:08:38.460 on real crimes.
00:08:40.020 They've been doing that for decades,
00:08:41.420 centuries, I guess.
00:08:42.880 What does he mean
00:08:43.400 by making people comfortable
00:08:44.520 reporting what they experience?
00:08:45.780 I mean, if he means real crimes,
00:08:48.360 I'm all for that.
00:08:49.520 But I think he means ideas,
00:08:51.780 feelings, words.
00:08:52.760 I'll read some more.
00:08:54.160 That National Council
00:08:55.120 of Canadian Muslims
00:08:55.940 is one organization
00:08:57.040 that maps anti-Muslim incidents
00:08:59.280 across Canada
00:09:00.000 according to Ms. Konanur.
00:09:02.640 Incidents are classified by types,
00:09:04.200 including physical,
00:09:05.760 vandalism,
00:09:06.460 and online verbal assaults.
00:09:09.440 So far, 25 have been reported
00:09:11.280 in 2019.
00:09:13.160 Now, I'm not sure
00:09:13.860 if you remember,
00:09:14.560 but the National Council
00:09:15.360 of Canadian Muslims
00:09:16.620 is the new name
00:09:17.620 for CARECAN,
00:09:19.840 CARECAN,
00:09:20.520 that was the Canadian branch
00:09:21.820 of the U.S. group
00:09:23.060 called CARE,
00:09:23.980 Council of American
00:09:25.340 Islamic Relations,
00:09:26.880 which was found
00:09:28.180 by a U.S. court
00:09:29.360 to be part of
00:09:30.020 the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:09:30.880 So they're as extreme
00:09:32.900 as it gets.
00:09:33.600 In some countries,
00:09:34.760 the Muslim Brotherhood
00:09:35.520 is regarded
00:09:35.960 as a terrorist group.
00:09:36.840 So they're saying
00:09:38.340 they've been counting
00:09:39.520 vandalism
00:09:41.420 and physical assaults.
00:09:43.080 Okay, I get that.
00:09:45.000 But also verbal assaults,
00:09:48.500 online verbal assaults.
00:09:51.680 What does that mean?
00:09:52.840 Mean tweets?
00:09:53.860 Mean Facebook?
00:09:54.320 There's no such thing
00:09:55.040 as an online verbal assault.
00:09:57.720 Then that's not an assault,
00:09:58.900 unless you're using
00:09:59.600 that word poetically.
00:10:01.000 You see what I mean
00:10:01.540 about eliding the language?
00:10:02.960 I know what a violent assault is,
00:10:05.400 but an online verbal assault,
00:10:07.120 that's not actually an assault.
00:10:08.960 Now, I don't want anyone
00:10:09.860 to punch a Muslim
00:10:10.840 or anyone else in the face.
00:10:12.080 That's a crime.
00:10:13.080 And if you do it
00:10:13.660 because a person is a Muslim,
00:10:14.880 you could call that a hate crime.
00:10:16.380 But it's not a crime
00:10:17.240 to say mean things
00:10:18.240 about someone online.
00:10:19.920 It just isn't.
00:10:20.860 That's not a crime, sorry.
00:10:23.120 I'll read some more.
00:10:24.480 Whether it takes six months
00:10:25.600 or it takes a year,
00:10:26.420 we're recommending
00:10:27.280 that there'd be a full
00:10:28.020 and complete plan
00:10:28.880 to deal with online hate,
00:10:30.840 Mr. Huff's father says.
00:10:33.320 Oh, so they're not even pretending
00:10:34.340 it's about crimes anymore
00:10:35.340 or assaults anymore.
00:10:36.760 It's just a full-out assault
00:10:39.840 on hate
00:10:40.740 to misuse language
00:10:41.660 like they do.
00:10:42.580 It's an assault on language,
00:10:43.960 an assault on ideas
00:10:44.940 to handle and control
00:10:47.800 the internet,
00:10:48.660 including us by name.
00:10:49.700 Here's the scariest part
00:10:50.660 of the whole article, though.
00:10:53.200 Requests for interviews
00:10:54.620 with Conservative MP Lisa Raitt,
00:10:57.600 her party's justice critic
00:10:58.820 and committee vice chair,
00:11:00.440 and Michael Barrett,
00:11:02.680 a committee member,
00:11:04.240 were not returned.
00:11:07.160 You know, a few weeks ago
00:11:07.960 I set up a petition
00:11:08.760 called StopSection13.com.
00:11:10.620 It was about one of the proposals
00:11:12.220 by House Fathers Committee
00:11:13.360 to ban mean words online.
00:11:15.940 That's the part
00:11:16.400 of the Canadian Human Rights Act
00:11:17.500 that Stephen Harper
00:11:18.540 had the good sense
00:11:19.160 to repeal in 2013.
00:11:20.680 The liberals want it back.
00:11:21.700 They recommended
00:11:22.580 that it come back.
00:11:24.200 And in addition
00:11:24.980 to all this other censorship
00:11:25.980 we're talking about,
00:11:26.780 the national database
00:11:28.020 tracking mean comments,
00:11:29.580 like that's not creepy at all.
00:11:31.200 But where are the conservatives
00:11:32.340 on this?
00:11:33.340 You know, I had a few emails
00:11:34.340 come in back to me
00:11:35.820 when I launched that petition
00:11:36.780 saying,
00:11:37.160 Ezra,
00:11:37.820 the Conservative Party
00:11:38.700 wrote a minority report
00:11:39.760 at the committee
00:11:40.300 and they were for free speech.
00:11:42.700 Okay, yes, that is true.
00:11:44.780 The Conservative MPs
00:11:45.920 wrote a very short
00:11:46.720 but quite good
00:11:47.380 piece of paper
00:11:48.620 about free speech
00:11:49.740 and they came out
00:11:51.180 against reviving
00:11:52.080 Section 13
00:11:52.820 and that's it.
00:11:56.680 They filed that piece
00:11:57.600 of paper quietly,
00:11:59.620 didn't put out
00:12:00.160 a press release,
00:12:00.820 didn't tweet about it,
00:12:01.600 didn't give a speech about it.
00:12:02.520 I'd be surprised
00:12:03.260 if a hundred people
00:12:04.400 have read it.
00:12:05.500 Not one public speech
00:12:06.360 by any Conservative MP,
00:12:08.260 certainly not the leader
00:12:08.980 Andrew Scheer,
00:12:09.500 not one public comment,
00:12:10.720 not one statement
00:12:11.320 in Parliament,
00:12:12.120 not one email
00:12:12.820 from the party about it,
00:12:13.960 not no campaign about it.
00:12:15.660 It's as if
00:12:16.220 it never happened.
00:12:17.240 Just a signed piece
00:12:18.440 of paper filed away
00:12:19.360 with the government
00:12:19.760 and when the Hill Times
00:12:20.920 positively called up
00:12:22.880 the Conservative MPs
00:12:23.920 who were so chatty
00:12:25.400 about anything else
00:12:26.320 in the world,
00:12:28.520 well, when they found out
00:12:29.420 it was about free speech
00:12:30.200 they wouldn't even return
00:12:30.920 the phone calls on this.
00:12:32.880 It's for crystal clear
00:12:33.720 that the Conservatives
00:12:34.560 don't actually care
00:12:36.820 about free speech either.
00:12:38.300 Or scratch that,
00:12:39.100 of course they do care.
00:12:40.520 Of course they care.
00:12:42.840 They're just too afraid
00:12:43.940 to stand up to
00:12:44.640 Anthony Anthony's father
00:12:46.240 or the Muslim Brotherhood
00:12:47.540 because they're worried
00:12:48.240 that they'll be called
00:12:49.220 mean by the CBC
00:12:50.740 or something.
00:12:52.200 We're in trouble, folks.
00:12:53.860 We'll talk more
00:12:54.420 on this subject
00:12:54.900 in a moment.
00:12:55.280 2020 is certainly on top of
00:13:11.160 my old organization
00:13:12.920 of Justice and Safety
00:13:13.560 is top of mind.
00:13:14.820 They've been working on it
00:13:15.680 since 2016
00:13:16.680 to make sure
00:13:17.500 we're ready for 2020.
00:13:18.780 This is a Goliath
00:13:19.600 I'm but of David
00:13:20.460 trying to say
00:13:22.620 that the emperor
00:13:23.460 has no clothes.
00:13:24.280 He got called
00:13:25.200 in front of Congress
00:13:26.060 multiple times
00:13:27.480 and making pressures
00:13:28.740 for not changing.
00:13:31.440 Hmm.
00:13:32.560 There you have it.
00:13:33.720 Google insiders
00:13:35.020 talking to Project Veritas
00:13:37.000 about their plans
00:13:38.560 to stop Donald Trump
00:13:39.620 from winning
00:13:40.320 in 2020.
00:13:41.960 A Google insider
00:13:43.380 coming forward
00:13:44.580 keeping his anonymity
00:13:46.000 but other Google executives
00:13:47.760 captured on a hidden camera
00:13:49.600 which is the forte
00:13:50.860 of Project Veritas.
00:13:51.980 Well, stunning to some
00:13:54.000 but completely unsurprising
00:13:55.680 to those of us
00:13:56.420 who have been following
00:13:57.180 the politicization
00:13:58.880 of YouTube, Google, Facebook
00:14:00.720 and other social media companies.
00:14:03.360 In fact,
00:14:04.040 our next guest
00:14:05.000 broke the news
00:14:06.300 with a scoop
00:14:06.980 of the Google town hall meeting
00:14:09.760 the all staff meeting
00:14:11.260 in the days after
00:14:12.500 Trump's win in 2016
00:14:13.800 when senior executives
00:14:16.180 were literally crying
00:14:18.500 at staff meetings
00:14:20.400 about the loss
00:14:21.340 and they spoke
00:14:22.240 about the Democrats
00:14:22.960 in the first person plural.
00:14:24.940 We.
00:14:25.560 We lost.
00:14:26.540 We must win.
00:14:28.200 They weren't even
00:14:28.700 a separate entity.
00:14:30.060 To be at Google
00:14:31.120 is to be a Democrat.
00:14:33.500 Well, joining us now
00:14:34.180 with the latest on this
00:14:35.020 is our friend
00:14:35.600 Alan Bokhari,
00:14:37.020 senior tech correspondent
00:14:38.240 for Breitbart.com.
00:14:39.900 Alan,
00:14:40.200 it's been an unbelievable week.
00:14:41.860 Project Veritas
00:14:42.900 doing outstanding journalism
00:14:44.460 as always.
00:14:45.880 You've had some
00:14:46.720 great columns about this.
00:14:48.180 Can you give,
00:14:48.660 can you sum up
00:14:49.460 the latest status
00:14:52.120 of these revelations
00:14:54.620 by Project Veritas
00:14:55.660 and you've had
00:14:56.160 some revelations too
00:14:57.140 and also the attempts
00:14:59.060 to censor
00:15:00.120 these revelations
00:15:01.100 by these same companies?
00:15:03.820 Well,
00:15:04.580 this is like
00:15:05.060 the latest piece
00:15:06.120 of evidence
00:15:06.880 in what's becoming
00:15:07.660 like a mountain
00:15:08.540 of material
00:15:10.380 proving that Google
00:15:11.420 has a massive
00:15:12.980 political bias,
00:15:14.640 a vested interest
00:15:15.540 in the next election
00:15:16.300 and a determination,
00:15:17.800 frankly,
00:15:18.140 to influence the election.
00:15:20.100 So,
00:15:20.940 as you said,
00:15:21.760 two days off
00:15:22.380 the election,
00:15:22.940 we got a clip
00:15:23.560 of the Google executives
00:15:25.100 reacting,
00:15:26.400 promising to make,
00:15:28.940 in the words of
00:15:29.980 Google Vice President
00:15:31.300 Kent Walker,
00:15:32.460 make the populist movement
00:15:33.660 a hiccup in history
00:15:34.800 on the march
00:15:36.300 towards progress.
00:15:37.280 Those are his words.
00:15:38.440 We've also seen
00:15:39.640 YouTube manipulating
00:15:41.720 its search results
00:15:42.900 for so-called
00:15:43.780 politically
00:15:44.300 controversial
00:15:46.260 search queries
00:15:47.160 like abortion
00:15:48.460 and abortions
00:15:49.260 downranking
00:15:50.060 pro-life content
00:15:50.880 and pushing
00:15:52.400 pro-abortion content
00:15:54.720 from mainstream
00:15:55.280 news outlets
00:15:55.960 up the search rankings
00:15:57.680 and that's important
00:15:58.320 because most people
00:15:59.740 often don't go beyond
00:16:01.200 the first two
00:16:02.180 or three results
00:16:03.020 even,
00:16:03.660 and certainly not beyond
00:16:04.460 the first 10 or 15 results.
00:16:05.860 It's very rare
00:16:06.400 for people to do that.
00:16:07.380 Project Veritas
00:16:08.860 also shed further light
00:16:10.680 on that YouTube blacklist
00:16:11.760 which we broke
00:16:12.440 a few months ago.
00:16:14.940 They also added
00:16:15.860 search terms
00:16:16.500 like repeal the 8th
00:16:17.760 ahead of the
00:16:19.580 Irish abortion referendum.
00:16:20.960 Now repeal the 8th
00:16:21.640 was a reference
00:16:22.240 to amending
00:16:24.020 the 8th Amendment
00:16:24.720 to the Irish Constitution
00:16:25.880 which criminalized
00:16:27.140 abortion,
00:16:27.780 so they actively
00:16:29.000 interfered
00:16:29.620 in that
00:16:30.160 referendum
00:16:32.000 which took place
00:16:33.260 last year.
00:16:33.920 we also found
00:16:35.620 that these search terms
00:16:37.040 were added
00:16:37.680 seven days
00:16:39.480 before the vote
00:16:40.120 took place
00:16:40.680 so this was
00:16:41.300 very consciously
00:16:42.100 done before
00:16:42.740 the election.
00:16:44.400 I mean it's incredible
00:16:45.720 for two years
00:16:46.480 the legacy media
00:16:47.520 has totally bought
00:16:48.900 into the conspiracy
00:16:50.040 theory
00:16:50.620 finally debunked
00:16:52.360 by Robert Mueller
00:16:53.660 that Donald Trump
00:16:56.320 was working
00:16:56.860 in collusion
00:16:57.420 with the Russians.
00:16:58.300 It was a two-year
00:16:59.860 fever
00:17:00.660 that was finally
00:17:02.280 disproven.
00:17:02.840 And here we have
00:17:03.760 YouTube,
00:17:04.780 Google
00:17:05.080 internal documents
00:17:07.540 not disputed
00:17:08.620 by the company
00:17:09.240 from what I can tell
00:17:10.140 saying yeah
00:17:11.340 we're going to
00:17:11.780 manipulate this election
00:17:12.820 and that election
00:17:13.540 and we are going to
00:17:14.200 do our best
00:17:14.660 to stop Trump.
00:17:15.840 And there's a
00:17:16.680 collective yawn
00:17:17.820 I think
00:17:19.000 it's pretty obvious
00:17:20.200 why Alan.
00:17:20.840 I think it's because
00:17:21.660 90 plus percent
00:17:23.040 of journalists
00:17:23.640 agree
00:17:24.820 Trump must be stopped
00:17:26.280 and if that's
00:17:26.740 through censorship
00:17:27.300 so be it.
00:17:29.220 Yes
00:17:29.320 and by the way
00:17:29.880 it also helps
00:17:30.540 mainstream journalists
00:17:32.200 boost their content
00:17:34.360 you know
00:17:34.660 mainstream journalists
00:17:35.660 past three years
00:17:37.240 have been getting
00:17:37.660 absolutely crushed
00:17:38.460 by the independent media
00:17:39.580 by you know
00:17:40.900 YouTubers
00:17:41.440 with you know
00:17:42.180 webcams
00:17:42.740 in their basements
00:17:43.800 multi-million dollar
00:17:46.240 broadcast networks
00:17:47.080 have been getting
00:17:47.720 frankly owned
00:17:48.860 by those people
00:17:49.500 so the fact
00:17:51.180 that YouTube
00:17:51.620 is now adjusting
00:17:52.520 its algorithms
00:17:53.160 on key political terms
00:17:54.700 to promote
00:17:57.640 so-called
00:17:58.080 authoritative sources
00:17:59.400 by which they mean
00:18:00.100 the mainstream media
00:18:00.960 that's going to
00:18:01.920 be a massive boost
00:18:03.260 for mainstream journalists
00:18:04.840 over their competitors
00:18:05.660 so yes
00:18:06.760 why wouldn't they
00:18:07.280 support it?
00:18:07.760 You know
00:18:08.500 this expose
00:18:09.340 into Google
00:18:10.320 the interviews
00:18:11.300 were done
00:18:11.700 by Project Veritas
00:18:12.660 because Google
00:18:13.800 owns YouTube
00:18:15.220 so
00:18:16.380 yes
00:18:16.960 Google
00:18:17.980 which was exposed
00:18:19.800 well their
00:18:20.840 subsidiary YouTube
00:18:22.200 shut down
00:18:24.000 the Project Veritas
00:18:25.160 expose
00:18:25.740 Brazen
00:18:27.960 basically
00:18:29.540 and I was shocked
00:18:31.720 that other tech companies
00:18:33.320 got in on it too
00:18:35.040 Vimeo
00:18:36.120 which is actually
00:18:37.440 a direct competitor
00:18:39.540 to YouTube
00:18:40.920 deleted the same videos too
00:18:43.640 I mean
00:18:43.940 it was like
00:18:45.060 they were all
00:18:45.660 colluding together
00:18:46.660 how can you
00:18:47.640 how can you make sense
00:18:48.740 of that?
00:18:49.260 Why would rivals
00:18:50.420 to YouTube
00:18:51.340 shut down
00:18:52.560 an expose
00:18:53.140 that's embarrassing
00:18:55.380 to YouTube?
00:18:56.380 Wouldn't they
00:18:56.880 want to profit
00:18:58.300 off the
00:18:59.020 bad news
00:19:00.800 of Google?
00:19:02.640 Right
00:19:03.140 well
00:19:03.420 here's a
00:19:04.660 kind of market
00:19:05.360 failure we have
00:19:06.200 because
00:19:06.700 although Vimeo
00:19:07.980 and YouTube
00:19:08.440 are commercial
00:19:09.800 competitors
00:19:10.360 they're not
00:19:11.200 ideological competitors
00:19:12.280 they're part of
00:19:13.360 the same
00:19:13.860 Silicon Valley
00:19:14.520 monoculture
00:19:15.280 that hates Trump
00:19:17.240 that hates Republicans
00:19:18.320 that wants to see
00:19:19.960 them lose
00:19:20.260 the next election
00:19:20.980 so
00:19:22.980 this is so
00:19:25.280 strong in Silicon
00:19:26.180 Valley
00:19:26.500 that
00:19:26.880 even commercial
00:19:28.920 competitors
00:19:29.460 will work together
00:19:30.400 to censor
00:19:31.200 ideological
00:19:31.840 opponents
00:19:34.200 and we saw this
00:19:34.820 with Alex Jones
00:19:35.720 where you had
00:19:36.080 one Silicon Valley
00:19:36.840 after another
00:19:37.500 just banning him
00:19:38.220 banning him
00:19:38.620 banning him
00:19:39.140 all within the
00:19:40.120 same day
00:19:40.660 they were all
00:19:42.000 flying with him
00:19:42.500 for years
00:19:42.900 and then
00:19:43.160 in the course
00:19:44.080 of 24 hours
00:19:44.840 they all made
00:19:45.260 their move
00:19:45.560 I suppose
00:19:46.100 it's like
00:19:46.400 Hollywood
00:19:46.780 I mean
00:19:47.520 the studios
00:19:48.100 do duke it out
00:19:49.120 and they
00:19:49.460 compete for
00:19:50.820 box office
00:19:51.400 openings
00:19:51.720 but when it
00:19:52.260 comes to
00:19:52.620 politics
00:19:52.980 they are
00:19:54.040 unanimously
00:19:54.740 I mean
00:19:55.140 you could
00:19:55.400 find the
00:19:56.140 exception
00:19:56.480 on one
00:19:57.140 hand's
00:19:57.500 fingers
00:19:57.820 Clint Eastwood
00:19:59.120 and I think
00:20:00.540 I pretty much
00:20:01.120 just went
00:20:01.540 through the list
00:20:02.140 of non-democrats
00:20:03.680 in Hollywood
00:20:04.160 so yeah
00:20:04.780 they're commercial
00:20:05.400 rivals
00:20:06.400 but when it
00:20:06.920 comes to
00:20:07.240 politics
00:20:07.580 they close
00:20:07.980 rings
00:20:08.320 yeah
00:20:09.400 and even
00:20:10.680 when they
00:20:11.020 stand to
00:20:11.380 make a profit
00:20:11.800 from it
00:20:12.140 you know
00:20:12.380 you said
00:20:12.820 Hollywood
00:20:13.160 I mean
00:20:13.500 the American
00:20:14.380 Sniper
00:20:14.820 which wasn't
00:20:15.240 really a
00:20:15.620 conservative
00:20:15.980 film
00:20:16.400 but
00:20:17.060 conservatives
00:20:17.800 really liked
00:20:18.460 it
00:20:18.660 that was
00:20:20.120 a huge
00:20:20.540 success
00:20:20.880 the box
00:20:21.280 office
00:20:21.540 but it
00:20:22.360 was denounced
00:20:23.040 by most
00:20:23.520 liberals
00:20:23.940 in Hollywood
00:20:26.000 so even
00:20:26.620 though the
00:20:27.040 Mel Gibson
00:20:28.020 films as well
00:20:28.740 made loads
00:20:29.200 of money
00:20:29.600 but Mel Gibson
00:20:31.020 was ostracized
00:20:31.740 so even
00:20:33.520 though these
00:20:34.020 things
00:20:34.260 could make
00:20:35.380 money
00:20:35.780 they don't
00:20:36.600 do them
00:20:36.920 anyway
00:20:37.240 and it's
00:20:37.940 the same
00:20:38.320 deal in
00:20:38.840 Silicon Valley
00:20:39.480 I mean
00:20:39.900 when Facebook
00:20:41.020 banned Alex
00:20:41.620 Jones
00:20:41.920 Twitter
00:20:42.300 would have
00:20:42.740 stood to
00:20:43.260 gain
00:20:43.520 by having
00:20:43.980 him on
00:20:44.260 their platform
00:20:44.800 on getting
00:20:45.240 unique access
00:20:48.460 to his fans
00:20:49.280 but they
00:20:49.620 didn't do
00:20:49.980 that
00:20:50.160 because
00:20:50.560 ideological
00:20:51.520 competition
00:20:52.100 is more
00:20:52.800 important
00:20:53.300 in
00:20:54.140 much of
00:20:56.160 elite
00:20:56.800 society
00:20:57.360 in America
00:20:57.860 than
00:20:58.380 commercial
00:20:58.840 competition
00:20:59.400 yeah
00:20:59.920 and I
00:21:00.220 find that
00:21:00.600 personally
00:21:01.160 terrifying
00:21:01.600 because of
00:21:02.100 course Alex
00:21:02.480 Jones
00:21:02.680 was very
00:21:03.200 big on
00:21:03.840 YouTube
00:21:04.200 double or
00:21:04.980 triple R
00:21:05.360 size
00:21:05.760 and they
00:21:06.720 didn't hesitate
00:21:07.260 to delete
00:21:07.820 him with
00:21:08.120 the flick
00:21:08.460 of a button
00:21:08.900 if they
00:21:09.200 can do
00:21:09.440 that to
00:21:09.800 him
00:21:10.100 in America
00:21:11.200 a personal
00:21:11.960 a man who
00:21:13.080 personally
00:21:13.520 interviewed
00:21:14.000 Donald Trump
00:21:14.640 so he has
00:21:15.900 a first degree
00:21:16.580 connection to
00:21:17.240 Trump
00:21:17.540 he is so much
00:21:18.720 bigger and
00:21:19.200 stronger than
00:21:19.740 us
00:21:20.040 I mean
00:21:20.640 whatever
00:21:21.040 qualms people
00:21:22.120 have with him
00:21:22.560 editorially
00:21:23.080 he was powerful
00:21:23.940 and YouTube
00:21:25.200 Facebook
00:21:25.660 Twitter
00:21:26.060 even
00:21:26.540 Apple
00:21:27.740 even
00:21:28.160 Pinterest
00:21:29.000 even
00:21:29.280 LinkedIn
00:21:29.860 they were
00:21:31.060 why would
00:21:31.960 LinkedIn delete
00:21:32.900 him
00:21:33.020 I don't know
00:21:33.360 but they just
00:21:33.840 did
00:21:34.240 they can
00:21:35.100 do that
00:21:35.380 to him
00:21:35.660 they can
00:21:35.900 do that
00:21:36.140 to anyone
00:21:37.140 yeah
00:21:38.860 and now
00:21:39.280 they're doing
00:21:39.560 it to
00:21:39.820 journalism
00:21:40.320 so as you
00:21:41.140 said
00:21:41.320 YouTube
00:21:41.860 kicked off
00:21:42.540 Project Veritas
00:21:43.340 because Project
00:21:44.420 Veritas did
00:21:45.080 journalism
00:21:45.660 about Google
00:21:46.900 which owns
00:21:47.480 YouTube
00:21:47.780 so Google
00:21:48.420 is censoring
00:21:49.640 journalism
00:21:50.720 about Google
00:21:51.480 that's terrifying
00:21:52.700 as well
00:21:53.220 they're behaving
00:21:53.880 like a
00:21:54.480 totalitarian
00:21:56.140 government
00:21:56.600 which in many
00:21:57.060 ways they are
00:21:57.700 yeah
00:21:58.080 they have less
00:21:59.740 scrutiny
00:22:00.080 and less
00:22:00.440 accountability
00:22:00.900 than even
00:22:01.660 many
00:22:02.020 authoritarian
00:22:02.520 regimes
00:22:03.180 as hard
00:22:03.540 as
00:22:03.640 and they
00:22:04.060 have more
00:22:04.620 power over
00:22:05.340 our lives
00:22:05.740 directly
00:22:06.060 I tell you
00:22:06.440 there's not a lot
00:22:07.460 of things that
00:22:08.000 Vladimir Putin
00:22:08.620 can actually do
00:22:09.820 on any given
00:22:10.900 day that would
00:22:11.560 affect my life
00:22:12.620 in fact
00:22:14.500 other than
00:22:15.380 war or some
00:22:16.700 cyber war
00:22:17.380 I can't even
00:22:18.000 think of one
00:22:18.860 but on any
00:22:20.140 given day
00:22:20.680 YouTube
00:22:21.000 Facebook
00:22:21.420 Twitter
00:22:21.720 can very much
00:22:22.600 change my life
00:22:23.300 not only the
00:22:24.280 company we have
00:22:25.040 called the rebel
00:22:25.600 but imagine if you
00:22:26.820 were deplatformed
00:22:27.620 I mean
00:22:27.980 and now Facebook
00:22:29.740 is talking about
00:22:30.560 getting into the
00:22:31.240 cryptocurrency
00:22:32.100 business
00:22:32.840 imagine the
00:22:33.960 same political
00:22:34.720 decision that
00:22:35.980 shuts down your
00:22:37.760 Facebook account
00:22:39.300 well what if it
00:22:40.040 and they claim
00:22:40.880 they wouldn't do it
00:22:41.520 but I don't trust
00:22:42.040 a word they say
00:22:42.740 what if they
00:22:43.900 refuse to let you
00:22:45.100 have access to
00:22:45.800 your Facebook
00:22:46.660 currency because
00:22:47.480 you said
00:22:48.000 something wrong
00:22:48.840 you liked
00:22:49.880 something wrong
00:22:50.820 or you did
00:22:51.340 something even
00:22:52.360 in real life
00:22:53.400 off the platform
00:22:54.340 they didn't like
00:22:55.080 these people
00:22:56.100 have more power
00:22:57.400 over our lives
00:22:58.680 than Vladimir
00:23:00.160 Putin does
00:23:00.780 by far
00:23:01.980 absolutely
00:23:03.580 and I think
00:23:04.400 the next stage
00:23:05.620 of conservative
00:23:06.220 politics is going
00:23:06.980 to be this battle
00:23:07.700 with woke
00:23:08.660 corporations
00:23:09.300 not just in
00:23:10.500 Silicon Valley
00:23:11.060 you mentioned
00:23:11.940 the cryptocurrency
00:23:12.820 thing you know
00:23:13.680 being locked out
00:23:14.280 of your crypto
00:23:15.500 wallet because
00:23:16.220 you said the
00:23:16.760 wrong thing
00:23:17.120 on Facebook
00:23:17.640 activists are
00:23:19.200 already pressuring
00:23:20.020 MasterCard
00:23:20.920 to do the same
00:23:22.860 thing they want
00:23:23.460 them to establish
00:23:24.100 a so-called
00:23:24.520 human rights
00:23:25.220 council to
00:23:25.900 monitor the far
00:23:26.680 right with a
00:23:27.560 view to cutting
00:23:28.060 off payments
00:23:28.740 they actually
00:23:29.700 protested
00:23:30.460 MasterCard's
00:23:31.220 annual general
00:23:31.840 meeting last
00:23:32.460 week and
00:23:34.000 that was the
00:23:34.600 sleeping giants
00:23:35.480 and a group
00:23:36.420 called I believe
00:23:37.500 this is us
00:23:40.120 doing the
00:23:40.780 protest
00:23:41.500 they're trying
00:23:42.460 to change the
00:23:42.940 terms of
00:23:43.260 contracts
00:23:43.620 well let me
00:23:45.760 ask you this
00:23:46.280 I mean
00:23:46.600 and by the way
00:23:47.860 it's coming to
00:23:48.240 Canada too
00:23:48.900 our Justin
00:23:50.400 Trudeau is
00:23:51.120 going full
00:23:52.200 speed ahead
00:23:52.680 with the
00:23:53.160 Christchurch
00:23:54.240 call to action
00:23:55.260 which is a
00:23:55.820 censorship
00:23:56.160 program led
00:23:57.360 by the
00:23:57.900 traumatized
00:23:59.080 prime minister
00:23:59.640 of New Zealand
00:24:00.260 named Jacinda
00:24:01.120 Ardern
00:24:01.460 I don't know
00:24:02.360 if you saw
00:24:02.760 it Alan
00:24:03.060 just a few
00:24:04.060 days ago
00:24:04.580 the secretary
00:24:05.680 general of the
00:24:06.260 United Nations
00:24:06.980 announced a
00:24:08.660 war on what
00:24:10.320 he called
00:24:10.740 hate speech
00:24:11.500 and he
00:24:12.660 emphasized
00:24:13.160 leaning on
00:24:13.900 social media
00:24:14.480 companies many
00:24:15.180 times
00:24:15.680 I feel like
00:24:17.360 it was
00:24:17.720 interesting
00:24:18.060 I got into
00:24:18.980 a sort of
00:24:20.820 spat with a
00:24:21.500 BBC journalist
00:24:22.420 a couple of
00:24:22.840 weeks ago
00:24:23.220 because the
00:24:23.620 BBC journalist
00:24:24.320 was complaining
00:24:24.960 that he's a
00:24:26.160 China correspondent
00:24:26.840 he was in
00:24:27.360 China
00:24:27.700 and on
00:24:29.000 WeChat
00:24:29.480 China's
00:24:30.440 biggest social
00:24:31.320 media platform
00:24:32.080 you can't
00:24:32.560 talk about
00:24:32.920 the Tiananmen
00:24:33.540 Square protest
00:24:34.440 and he was
00:24:36.320 complaining about
00:24:36.940 this
00:24:37.320 and I made
00:24:39.120 the point
00:24:39.440 well
00:24:39.760 this is
00:24:40.940 interesting
00:24:41.280 because WeChat
00:24:41.940 is purportedly
00:24:43.240 a private
00:24:43.680 company
00:24:44.120 but we all
00:24:45.120 know that the
00:24:45.560 Chinese government
00:24:46.240 leans on them
00:24:47.240 to censor
00:24:48.620 dissidents
00:24:49.000 so it
00:24:50.400 seems like we
00:24:51.120 have a similar
00:24:51.580 thing happening
00:24:52.120 in the West
00:24:52.560 now we have
00:24:53.180 governments
00:24:53.660 and politicians
00:24:54.400 who can't
00:24:56.000 really censor
00:24:56.700 people themselves
00:24:57.360 because there
00:24:57.860 are all sorts
00:24:58.180 of laws
00:24:58.540 against that
00:24:59.280 slight difference
00:25:01.120 with China
00:25:01.560 there
00:25:01.880 but they
00:25:03.420 know that
00:25:03.800 they can
00:25:04.780 make private
00:25:05.260 companies
00:25:05.740 do it
00:25:06.240 on their
00:25:06.720 behalf
00:25:07.300 now in
00:25:08.680 Europe
00:25:08.820 they do
00:25:09.160 pass laws
00:25:09.720 making the
00:25:10.180 companies
00:25:10.500 do that
00:25:10.840 in America
00:25:11.340 where you
00:25:11.660 have the
00:25:11.880 First
00:25:12.080 Amendment
00:25:12.360 you just
00:25:13.540 have
00:25:13.720 politicians
00:25:14.200 telling these
00:25:14.920 companies
00:25:15.300 what to
00:25:15.660 do
00:25:15.820 and who
00:25:16.060 to censor
00:25:16.840 so the
00:25:18.020 parallels
00:25:18.500 are getting
00:25:20.000 more apparent
00:25:21.720 all the
00:25:22.060 time with
00:25:22.540 totalitarian
00:25:23.240 regimes like
00:25:23.940 China
00:25:24.260 you're so
00:25:24.700 right
00:25:24.920 I mean
00:25:25.220 of course
00:25:25.620 we find
00:25:26.100 censorship
00:25:26.520 of
00:25:26.760 Tiananmen
00:25:27.060 Square
00:25:27.260 odious
00:25:27.740 but how
00:25:28.380 is that
00:25:28.680 any
00:25:28.860 different
00:25:29.100 than what
00:25:29.420 you just
00:25:29.780 described
00:25:30.420 Google
00:25:30.860 doing to
00:25:31.880 Project
00:25:32.380 Veritas
00:25:32.800 and why
00:25:33.820 is it
00:25:34.100 and indeed
00:25:34.500 the social
00:25:35.880 credit system
00:25:36.560 so in
00:25:37.320 China
00:25:37.680 if you
00:25:38.880 engage in
00:25:39.900 behavior
00:25:40.320 the Chinese
00:25:41.620 communists
00:25:42.000 don't like
00:25:42.540 they'll adjust
00:25:43.200 your social
00:25:43.660 credit score
00:25:44.200 which will
00:25:44.440 effectively
00:25:44.820 ban you
00:25:45.360 from using
00:25:45.740 transportation
00:25:46.500 ban you
00:25:47.560 from using
00:25:48.120 from sending
00:25:49.560 your kids
00:25:49.880 to good schools
00:25:50.540 ban you
00:25:50.900 from all sorts
00:25:51.260 of essential
00:25:51.640 services
00:25:52.140 and we
00:25:54.440 have a very
00:25:54.940 similar system
00:25:55.740 now developing
00:25:56.460 in the private
00:25:57.080 sector in the
00:25:57.680 West where
00:25:58.120 if you fall
00:25:59.260 below a certain
00:25:59.960 your scores are
00:26:00.940 hidden but if
00:26:01.820 you fall below
00:26:02.340 a certain score
00:26:03.100 on Facebook
00:26:03.640 you attract too
00:26:05.040 many hate
00:26:05.960 agents points
00:26:06.800 I released a
00:26:08.000 story a few
00:26:08.520 weeks ago
00:26:10.040 exposing Facebook's
00:26:11.100 list of so-called
00:26:12.180 hate agents
00:26:13.040 people who are
00:26:14.480 monitoring for
00:26:15.660 hate speech
00:26:16.260 you accumulate
00:26:17.940 too many
00:26:18.340 points
00:26:18.800 and they'll
00:26:20.340 kick you
00:26:20.600 off the
00:26:20.800 platform
00:26:21.200 and we
00:26:22.800 have like
00:26:23.220 Uber and
00:26:23.820 Lyft and
00:26:24.700 Airbnb
00:26:25.120 kicking people
00:26:26.000 off
00:26:26.220 we have
00:26:26.520 PayPal
00:26:26.900 kicking people
00:26:27.480 off
00:26:27.660 credit cards
00:26:28.360 so all of
00:26:29.460 these essential
00:26:29.960 services can
00:26:30.780 be just
00:26:31.560 completely cut
00:26:32.740 off if you
00:26:33.340 exhibit the
00:26:33.920 wrong behavior
00:26:34.540 and you do
00:26:35.820 have a secret
00:26:36.360 score that's
00:26:37.460 assigned to you
00:26:38.040 by many of
00:26:38.460 these platforms
00:26:38.980 that is very
00:26:39.460 similar to
00:26:40.040 China's system
00:26:40.800 yeah you're
00:26:41.600 so right
00:26:42.020 I think these
00:26:42.720 companies are
00:26:43.200 practicing in
00:26:44.360 China and
00:26:45.340 importing the
00:26:46.020 bad practices
00:26:46.700 here instead
00:26:47.720 of taking the
00:26:49.760 history and
00:26:50.780 the culture and
00:26:51.920 the practices of
00:26:52.720 liberty from
00:26:53.300 here and
00:26:54.320 exporting liberty
00:26:55.180 there the
00:26:56.280 pipes are
00:26:56.900 reversed I find
00:26:57.880 that terrifying
00:26:58.480 and I come back
00:26:59.460 to the question
00:26:59.920 I've asked you
00:27:00.500 surely a dozen
00:27:01.100 times over the
00:27:01.860 years when's the
00:27:04.220 president going to
00:27:04.900 do anything because
00:27:05.740 I mean up here in
00:27:06.440 Canada we're
00:27:08.300 dealing with all
00:27:08.780 these Silicon Valley
00:27:09.640 based companies I
00:27:11.360 mean I suppose they
00:27:12.140 have some exposure
00:27:12.900 to Canadian law but
00:27:13.920 of course Justin
00:27:14.920 Trudeau likes the
00:27:15.600 censorship but at
00:27:16.160 the end of the
00:27:16.480 day Canada is
00:27:18.720 not the home base
00:27:19.580 for them Donald
00:27:20.660 Trump's America
00:27:21.500 is he controls the
00:27:22.920 communications decency
00:27:24.360 act he controls
00:27:25.260 antitrust
00:27:26.880 investigations civil
00:27:28.420 rights investigations
00:27:29.420 there are a number
00:27:30.480 of tools he could
00:27:31.220 use even if they're
00:27:31.980 not full failure
00:27:33.460 proof or fool
00:27:34.160 proof even just
00:27:36.120 launching them would
00:27:37.220 have a salutary
00:27:38.140 effect and yet
00:27:39.440 besides the odd
00:27:40.800 tweet from the
00:27:41.860 president I have
00:27:43.220 seen nothing and
00:27:44.240 the day is getting
00:27:45.000 long you know
00:27:47.740 it's we're halfway
00:27:49.340 through 2019 the
00:27:51.260 democratic primaries
00:27:52.200 are underway how
00:27:53.340 much more time will
00:27:54.260 there be for him to
00:27:55.260 save himself forget
00:27:56.040 about saving you and
00:27:56.740 me when will the man
00:27:57.800 save himself yeah I
00:28:00.240 mean he's personally
00:28:02.040 under attack Twitter
00:28:03.860 is now going to
00:28:04.580 censor his tweets
00:28:05.320 they're going to put
00:28:05.740 them behind barriers
00:28:07.200 you have to click
00:28:07.900 through to access
00:28:08.640 them so they're
00:28:10.200 openly censoring the
00:28:11.640 president now and he
00:28:12.860 seems to not be
00:28:15.000 doing much about it
00:28:15.960 other than speaking
00:28:16.820 out the justice
00:28:19.200 department did launch
00:28:20.040 an antitrust
00:28:20.740 investigation which is
00:28:21.880 a big deal but an
00:28:24.340 antitrust investigation
00:28:25.660 is sort of like it's
00:28:26.800 a not the right tool to
00:28:28.980 deal with this specific
00:28:29.860 problem I don't think
00:28:31.140 it's possible that you
00:28:33.140 could solve the
00:28:33.740 censorship question in a
00:28:34.740 settlement so maybe
00:28:36.040 that's what he's going
00:28:36.760 for but you know
00:28:37.560 antitrust is sort of
00:28:38.460 like you know a
00:28:40.320 square peg in a
00:28:41.280 round hole what he
00:28:43.660 what I think needs to
00:28:45.020 happen is as you
00:28:45.660 mentioned civil rights
00:28:46.520 investigations that's
00:28:47.740 that could be a very
00:28:48.740 useful tool because
00:28:50.020 many of these companies
00:28:51.580 are based in
00:28:52.060 California which has
00:28:52.940 strong laws against
00:28:53.980 political discrimination
00:28:55.300 against viewpoint
00:28:56.000 discrimination and
00:28:57.720 what I'd like to see
00:28:58.620 because again this is
00:29:00.920 just Silicon Valley
00:29:01.740 we're talking about now
00:29:02.720 it's credit cards
00:29:03.580 it's even restaurants
00:29:04.500 kicking you out because
00:29:05.360 of a political viewpoint
00:29:06.840 there was a knitting
00:29:07.560 website like the
00:29:09.640 biggest knitting
00:29:10.540 website on the internet
00:29:11.660 said they're not going
00:29:12.420 to allow Trump
00:29:13.160 supporters on their
00:29:13.820 platform anymore so
00:29:14.640 even knitting is
00:29:15.600 political it's amazing
00:29:17.880 what I think really
00:29:19.040 needs to happen not
00:29:20.580 just to stop this
00:29:21.540 injustice but also to
00:29:22.780 sort of decrease
00:29:23.680 partisan tensions
00:29:24.620 which are getting out
00:29:25.180 of control is we need
00:29:26.720 an extension of
00:29:27.480 California's laws on
00:29:29.260 political discrimination
00:29:30.720 across the entire
00:29:31.700 country I think
00:29:32.740 you know you mentioned
00:29:34.640 attorney generals and
00:29:36.120 you mentioned civil
00:29:36.780 rights laws in
00:29:37.300 California of course
00:29:37.860 California New York
00:29:38.840 Illinois a lot of
00:29:41.200 those big states are
00:29:42.400 run by Democrats who
00:29:43.560 are either in the
00:29:44.160 pocket of Silicon Valley
00:29:45.760 or like their
00:29:46.500 censorship for their
00:29:47.160 own reasons but there
00:29:48.260 are some states Texas
00:29:49.560 being an obvious one
00:29:50.580 Florida being another
00:29:51.820 where you have bold
00:29:55.020 state governments that
00:29:57.280 are Republican leaning
00:29:58.240 is there anything a
00:30:01.100 state level attorney
00:30:02.620 general can do on a
00:30:04.560 civil rights basis on a
00:30:05.760 trust-busting basis or is
00:30:07.040 that not their
00:30:07.920 jurisdiction can the
00:30:10.600 great governor of
00:30:11.540 Texas who's doing a lot
00:30:12.620 of good work in his
00:30:14.380 state house could he
00:30:15.520 take a run at these
00:30:16.380 companies he could
00:30:18.640 certainly give it a go
00:30:19.400 I mean there are I'm not
00:30:20.340 a lawyer but I'm sure
00:30:21.280 there are plenty tools
00:30:22.200 that a state attorney
00:30:23.060 general can use to make
00:30:24.900 a tech company's life
00:30:26.480 difficult and even if
00:30:28.240 they're not directly
00:30:29.040 related to the question
00:30:30.600 of discrimination or
00:30:31.560 censorship at least make
00:30:33.000 those questions part of
00:30:33.900 the settlement and
00:30:34.500 hopefully that's what
00:30:35.060 will happen with the
00:30:36.300 antitrust example what
00:30:38.280 also needs to happen I
00:30:39.160 think state legislatures
00:30:41.380 which as you say in many
00:30:42.760 cases are controlled by
00:30:43.560 Republicans in certain
00:30:44.980 states they need to
00:30:46.080 immediately pass laws on
00:30:47.400 viewpoint discrimination and
00:30:48.960 political discrimination I
00:30:50.180 think that's the way
00:30:50.800 forward yeah well I have
00:30:52.820 to say Alan I talk about
00:30:54.480 these things but I
00:30:55.900 believe that we will soon
00:30:57.140 be a subject of these
00:30:58.480 things we are facing baby
00:31:00.560 steps of discrimination
00:31:01.680 against our own platform
00:31:03.560 I see them even in recent
00:31:05.560 days and I am worried
00:31:07.360 that we ourselves will be
00:31:08.960 a new story and if that
00:31:11.220 happens as darkly as I
00:31:12.580 fear it might I hope that
00:31:13.520 you will light a candle for
00:31:15.080 us and write a story about
00:31:16.100 us because we'll need all
00:31:16.960 the help we can get
00:31:17.600 all right my friend well
00:31:21.860 thank you for joining us
00:31:22.780 today from Washington
00:31:24.040 via Skype good to see you
00:31:25.120 again thanks that's right
00:31:26.560 all right that's our friend
00:31:27.460 Alan Bocari senior tech
00:31:28.700 correspondent for
00:31:29.920 Breitbart calm hey
00:31:42.120 welcome back on my show
00:31:43.060 yesterday about Jared
00:31:43.940 Kushner's proposed deal to
00:31:45.720 solve the Palestinian
00:31:46.440 Israeli conflict Liza
00:31:47.540 writes when pigs fly
00:31:49.840 nothing will change as
00:31:50.660 long as terrorists run
00:31:51.460 their government give me a
00:31:52.220 break yeah I don't
00:31:54.420 understand the idea I mean
00:31:55.860 I was relieved to hear
00:31:57.380 that the 50 billion was
00:31:58.340 coming from Arab
00:31:58.920 countries and not from
00:31:59.760 America but you know you
00:32:02.220 could you could offer a
00:32:03.160 trillion you could offer a
00:32:04.240 gazillion dollars these
00:32:06.560 people don't actually want
00:32:07.880 peace air frat was offered
00:32:10.000 everything and gave it up
00:32:11.120 Paul writes if anyone could
00:32:14.760 bring peace Trump could that
00:32:17.240 said it's not possible to
00:32:18.340 build peace with people who
00:32:20.320 would rather die than make
00:32:21.220 it happen I think it was
00:32:23.680 Golda Meir the American born
00:32:25.700 prime minister of Israel who
00:32:27.140 said we'll have peace when
00:32:29.280 Palestinians love their kids
00:32:31.260 as much as they hate our
00:32:32.580 kids and that's a pretty
00:32:33.900 tough thing to say but I
00:32:34.940 think there's some truth to
00:32:35.900 it
00:32:36.400 Betty writes if the people in
00:32:39.960 the Middle East would stop
00:32:40.860 fighting and work together
00:32:41.780 there would be no end to what
00:32:42.720 they could accomplish I think
00:32:44.980 there's some truth to that I
00:32:46.520 mean look at Dubai and of
00:32:48.100 course Dubai has oil money but
00:32:49.480 now it's much more than that you
00:32:51.720 can see what countries even
00:32:53.480 without resources like Hong
00:32:55.020 Kong there are really no
00:32:56.080 natural resources there it's a
00:32:57.740 port but there's no oil
00:32:59.800 there's no gas there's no
00:33:00.800 mines it's a city based on
00:33:02.880 freedom and commerce and
00:33:03.840 cooperation and they love
00:33:06.000 freedom don't they Singapore you
00:33:07.620 could say the same thing so
00:33:08.620 yeah I mean in the Middle East
00:33:11.420 you've got access I mean look at
00:33:14.260 look at a map you've got Asia
00:33:15.800 Africa and Europe all like a
00:33:18.680 three-leaf clover right around
00:33:20.160 you you could do anything
00:33:21.540 Dubai certainly is West Bank
00:33:25.080 and Gaza have the advantage of
00:33:26.360 being right next to Israel which
00:33:27.820 is a very large Western oriented
00:33:29.840 economy of course they could but
00:33:31.140 that has not been the focus of
00:33:33.080 the Palestinian leadership for two
00:33:35.100 generations I find it very sad
00:33:37.080 but Joel Pollack's point was this
00:33:39.900 is calling the bluff of the
00:33:41.540 Palestinian side well it's a shame
00:33:43.920 that I think that bluff will in
00:33:45.620 fact be called but maybe we have
00:33:48.140 to wait another century for peace
00:33:49.500 to come all right folks that's the
00:33:51.120 show for today until next time on
00:33:52.940 behalf of all of us here at
00:33:53.920 Rebel World Headquarters and you at
00:33:55.060 home good night and keep fighting
00:33:56.780 for freedom
