Jimmy Kimmel is no longer allowed to appear on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live, and the FCC has barred him from speaking on air. What does this mean for the future of free speech in the entertainment industry and the rest of the country?
00:01:36.000The same guys that were criticizing him yesterday on the free speech crackdown and the censorship were the same people who were criticizing him on the Epstein files just a couple weeks ago.
00:01:46.000Now, all of those voices got tamped down very quickly on the right after a couple of days of people speaking out.
00:01:52.000I assume that that is what will happen here.
00:01:54.000But there's only so many times that you can keep attacking the very principles that people supported you for before they're going to start noticing that you don't have any principles.
00:02:19.000Yes, I mean, I think that in the last 10 years.
00:02:21.000And we have the president suggesting he's going to declare Antifa, whatever that really is, as a terrorist group, something he actually can't do if it's in the United States.
00:02:42.000In our political vernacular, there's a term that gets bandied about to describe repression, which is McCarthyism.
00:02:48.000And I think it's worth comparing the repression that happened in the late 1940s and the 1950s to what's happening now.
00:02:55.000In the 1950s, over the course of a decade, 10,000 people lost their jobs.
00:03:01.000Here, in the course of a week, it seems as if, according to reporting, more than 1,000 people lost their jobs.
00:03:08.000It took years for the McCarthyites to bring Hollywood to heel.
00:03:15.000Here, it seems like it happened in an absolute flash.
00:03:18.000And it's because the state is at the center of the repression, not some, you know, not some drunken senator on a rage on a rampage and some other up and coming ambitious politicians exploiting an issue.
00:03:32.000And if, you know, I think about Project 2025 and how that provided a roadmap to remaking the kind of the mechanics, the plumbing of the federal government in order to achieve all sorts of longstanding conservative goals, but also to engage in a form of culture war.
00:03:52.000And, you know, when we look at what's happened, not just to the entertainment industry, not just the threats that have been in actual punishment that's been inflicted on media.
00:04:02.000You look at what's happened to the university and the fact that the president of Texas A&M was just fired this week over a controversy where a professor was fired.
00:04:14.520You look at the fact that there is a federal monitor now installed at Columbia University and that there are all these other threats being wielded against other institutions.
00:04:23.840And you add that to the way in which the state, as this font of knowledge, has been reshaped in order to present only good news that the leader likes.
00:04:34.420And you take that together as an aggregate impression of where we're at in merely the first couple of months of this administration.
00:04:42.640And you think about the years ahead of us and you compare that to what happened during the McCarthy era.
00:04:48.760You'd say we've we've survived, you know, a decade of McCarthyism in a very, very short period of time.
00:04:56.640I mean, there was something in some before today where it talked about the origin story of one person in the Trump White House being that he was kicked off the Gawker comments.
00:05:03.460Yes. And Gawker, you know, it just was like it was a really big part of it.
00:05:07.480One of the biggest brains for the far right right now.
00:05:10.640And his whole thing started because he was kicked off of YouTube in 2018, 2019 for being a, you know, far right sort of agitator, racist vlogger.
00:05:19.340And so, like, this is the origin story of so many of these people.
00:05:22.600And so I don't think that we can I think we have to absolutely talk about it is retribution for them.
00:05:28.000It is not the idea of like, well, be careful what happens when they are.
00:05:31.580No, it's not hypocrisy. It's retribution.
00:06:14.460And it's being done because this is a weak, thin skinned man who's failing as a president.
00:06:19.720All of the things he promised are not happening.
00:06:22.600And this is exactly what dictators do.
00:06:25.300It's a it's our most cherished freedom to point out very clearly.
00:06:29.500This is a terrible president and a terrible human being who is doing nothing to improve the lives of Minnesotans and who continues to have this double standard.
00:06:37.740What we're seeing from this administration is a frontal assault, unapologetic, on one of the most cherished freedoms we have, the one that we celebrate arguably the most, the freedom to speak out and criticize the very government we elect to represent us without fear of being crushed or bullied or threatened.
00:06:56.740This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:07:04.380Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people.
00:07:47.620It's Friday, 19th September in the year of our Lord, 2025.
00:07:51.740Do you remember their big crocodile tears?
00:07:53.800The big crocodile tears and their love of the First Amendment when they were banning President Trump and all of his acolytes, all the leaders of the MAGA movement?
00:10:53.400We have to move with a sense of urgency and seize the institutions and make it so they can never reverse it.
00:11:00.180So even if they're to steal elections in the future, which is the only way they get in office, like in 2020, if they're able to steal elections, that they can't reverse what President Trump is doing.
00:12:33.560When I called for President Welsh to be fired nine months ago and for the entirety of this year,
00:12:38.060do you know exactly how many elected Republicans were willing to help call for the leftist former Barack Obama official to be fired from his position as Texas A&M University up until about two days ago?
00:13:19.940If I had conducted business as usual, the way these weak-kneed liberal rhino hack establishment uniparty folks who have been controlling the Texas government for decades, far too long,
00:13:29.060if I had conducted myself and handled this problem the way they wanted me to, Mark Welch would be president of Texas A&M today.
00:13:36.380That leftist, progressor, transgender indoctrinator, she would still be indoctrinating students at Texas A&M.
00:13:56.900Here's the thing that I was most shocked to learn, Steve, after serving as a senior member of President Trump's first administration
00:14:02.940and helping to get rid of DEI at the federal level.
00:14:05.760When I got elected down here in Texas, nothing could have prepared me for the shock to learn that, number one, Democrats run the show in Austin.
00:14:12.080A bunch of them, by the way, that self-identify as Republicans.
00:14:14.300But number two, the Texas government might well be the biggest funder of DEI and this woke leftist transgender indoctrination in America.
00:14:59.480This July, there is a global summit of BRICS nations in Rio de Janeiro, the block of emerging superpowers, including China, Russia, India, and Persia,
00:15:10.460are meeting with the goal of displacing the United States dollar as the global currency.
00:15:18.840As BRICS nations push forward with their plans, global demand for U.S. dollars will decrease, bringing down the value of the dollar in your savings.
00:15:26.960While this transition won't not happen overnight, but trust me, it's going to start in Rio.
00:15:33.440The Rio Reset in July marks a pivotal moment when BRICS objectives move decisively from a theoretical possibility towards inevitable reality.
00:15:43.700Learn if diversifying your savings into gold is right for you.

00:17:00.240So the, was it Ken Klippenstein has a, two pieces he put up on Substack.
00:17:07.220One is from April where he defines what nihilistic, violent extremist NVEs are.
00:17:13.620And then he's got a massive scoop coming out of the FBI that they're designating these transgender groups, these militias, and others as immediately as NVEs for detailed investigations.
00:17:27.680Also, that will be part of, as you know, when the designation for Antifa and its affiliates as a major terrorist organization.
00:17:38.900Of course, everybody saw in the cold, oh, it's domestic.
00:18:00.500You're going to see purple walked out eventually helping terrorist organization, their media partners, and also all these, a lot of these highfalutin NGOs.
00:18:21.920Mark Mitchell, we support him, but we've got to see some action.
00:18:25.040We're going to get to that in a minute, these cesspools that Comer's going to have before him.
00:18:28.960So, Brian Harrison, pull it back from the top.
00:18:31.140You sent us the other day something from Texas State where they teach on the taxpayers of the great state of Texas and everything those folks in Texas have been through to create that great state.
00:18:41.500They teach what transgender ideology resistance, the resistance movement that has led to things like the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
00:18:55.320How could this be so embedded in our greatest state in the union and MAGA's biggest state, sir?
00:19:01.580This sad, shocking, and infuriating answer is because of these so-called Republicans that have been leading the Texas government for, quite frankly, far too long.
00:19:10.560I mean, people ask me all the time, where does this indoctrination come from?
00:19:13.360Where do these ideas get into these young people's head that lead them to do things like what we saw with the assassination with Charlie Kirk?
00:19:38.260And then the so-called Republican government here in Texas is weaponizing that money against Texans, against their children, and against their values by indoctrinating and inculcating an entire generation into this diversity, equity, and inclusion nonsense, this transgender indoctrination and ideology.
00:19:56.380The problems that I exposed at Texas A&M, that's not an isolated event.
00:20:00.240It's all throughout the entire Texas A&M University system.
00:20:02.760But also, every public university in the state of Texas has some type of DEI and transgender indoctrination.
00:20:10.360Most of our public universities, you can get not just one class, Steve, an entire undergraduate course of study and minor in LGBT transgender studies.
00:20:20.740And Texas State University, you know, there's a viral video went around of a kid.
00:20:24.280It was disgusting, vulgar display, him mocking Charlie Kirk's death.
00:20:28.400So all the elected Republican leadership, including our governor, are like, expel the student.
00:20:32.240And I'm like, I'm sorry, that's a distraction.
00:20:36.540But the bigger problem is Texas State University is indoctrinating countless more just like him, and they're using tax dollars to do it.
00:20:42.360By the way, Abbott, correct me if I'm wrong, Abbott's social media team, on one of the students, I think it was the young woman at Texas Tech, he put F-A-F-O.
00:20:54.280I'm like, he's a big, it's like, you know, a Texas Ranger coming in.
00:20:59.000These guys think they're big shots for kicking these kids out.
00:21:01.340Of course the kids ought to be kicked out, no doubt about that.
00:21:03.540However, you've got to go to the railhead of the rot, and that's in the university system, that's on these boards, that's people that have known it, have been told to stop it, and it hasn't stopped, and it gets perpetuated, and it's because of the gutless nature of the senior folks in Texas politics, as we've seen time and time again.
00:21:20.780Only when they put a band net and nudge them in the back are they going to do anything.
00:21:24.540Other than that, they're going to give you happy talk on Fox of all the stuff they're doing.
00:21:28.980No, they're acting all big and tough by going after these kids, and of course the kids probably should be expelled in some of these F-A-F-O.
00:21:36.880Every single regent, every single chancellor, every single president, every single indoctrinating professor was hired directly or indirectly by you or one of your political appointees.
00:21:47.760The rot starts at the top here in the state of Texas, and every single indoctrinator, every single leftist progressive running, every public university or every state agency in Texas just about,
00:21:56.980was appointed by Governor Greg Abbott.
00:22:00.440And quite frankly, Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick in the Texas Senate nor the Texas House have expressed one ounce of interest in cutting off the phones for leftist liberal indoctrination.
00:22:11.440And in fact, they've been appointing leftist progressive Barack Obama officials all across the state of Texas for years.
00:22:18.020And they've refused every call to bring us back and finally let us defund all of this woke nonsense.
00:22:22.580Texas should be leading the fight against woke leftist indoctrination, not forcing taxpayers to be taxed out of their homes to subsidize the destruction and the cancerous rot indoctrinating the next generation.
00:22:34.940But that's exactly what's happening down here.
00:22:36.620Okay, you had a saddle up last week on this video, and people put their shoulder to the wheel.
00:23:37.060If we can fire the president of Texas A&M just by political pressure, you know what?
00:23:41.120Every other leftist indoctrinating chancellor and president of every public university that's still engaged in transgender indoctrination, your cover's been blown, man.
00:23:49.140We know you've got the power to fire them.
00:23:52.560And every other taxpayer-funded official engaged in indoctrination.
00:23:55.840And then to Dan Patrick and the leaders of the Texas House and the Texas Senate, assuming the governor calls us back, stop defeating every piece of legislation to ban DEI and transgender indoctrination.
00:24:06.280Stop passing fake bills that actually authorize instead of ban woke leftist indoctrination.
00:24:20.960We have the power here in the state of Texas to save not just America but the future of Western civilization.
00:24:26.560But we can't do it if we are funding the very ideologies that Charlie Kirk, God bless his soul and his family, dedicated his life to defeating.
00:24:35.960But that's exactly what's going on down here in God's country.
00:25:07.060We are going to save this country by saving the state of Texas.
00:25:10.340And every one of you watching right now, you can play an instrumental and material role in protecting liberty and freedom for the next generation.
00:30:25.680We send you to different places over at Birch Gold.
00:30:30.820We have done analytics and historical analysis and trend analysis and pattern recognition to show you why gold has been a hedge against times of financial turbulence for 5,000 years.
00:30:42.940So in Birch Gold, a couple of ways you can do it.
00:30:44.760You can text my name, Bannon, 989898, and get the ultimate guide.
00:30:49.160It's this guy we put out now for investing in gold and precious metals in the age of Trump.
00:30:55.700Or you can go with the one I'm proudest of is the end of the dollar empire, something we started four years ago with Birch Gold to kind of teach people why gold is gold.
00:31:07.100And look, the great news is Philip Patrick and I are not gold bugs at all.
00:31:11.400We came out of investment banking in a very different mentality.
00:31:15.980But, you know, times have changed and things have changed.
00:31:18.280That's what we thought was very important, particularly to teach you about the dollar, the U.S. dollar as the prime reserve currency, which is a fiat currency since it's, you know, has not been backed by gold by a long time.
00:31:30.140I guess the greenbacks haven't been backed by gold since the Civil War.
00:31:34.500Now, up on – I think we got it on – I just put up Ray Dahlia.
00:31:38.420And look, Ray Dahlia is not my total cup of tea.
00:31:40.620Made a ton of money in China in business with the Chinese Communist Party.
00:31:44.080He used to run the biggest hedge fund in the world, Bridgewater, but a very smart investor.
00:31:50.180He'd just come out, and you ought to read the article that's out.
00:31:52.920He's saying that, you know, all these fiat currencies, you've got to really drill down to maybe one of the best things you can do is look at gold, you know, the acquisition of gold for your financial future.
00:32:18.980So I want to go back because are you telling me basically from the time that Charlie got the assassination to essentially today, there's been a 10-point rise in President Trump's numbers?
00:32:33.800Is that because of just his leadership and his no-nonsense approach and the radical nature of these enemies, the enemies of the United States, both foreign and domestic?
00:32:43.760Charlie Kirk was shot nine days ago now, and the first thing we saw was right-direction plunge.
00:32:51.420It's been between 45% and 50% for most of Trump's second term, which is just fanatically unprecedented.
00:32:58.780We've never seen anything like that before.
00:33:00.520It dropped from 45% to 40%, and it looks like it's on the way back up to 42%.
00:33:06.220That was people like, what's going on?
00:33:07.960It was a drop of seven points of Republican right direction, six points of independence.
00:33:11.920Democrats went up a little, but I don't think it's because they like that Charlie Kirk was assassinated.
00:33:18.140Only in the last four days has Trump approval gone up, so I think it's a reaction.
00:33:24.200Maybe it's a delayed reaction or it's a reaction to the action and the way that he's framing these things.
00:33:29.180And if you can look at that chart, everybody watching right now, that red line, that bright red line that is Trump is in very unprecedented territories because presidents come in.
00:33:39.880I have the last four presidencies up here.
00:33:41.840They come in, and the summer is usually where the buyer's remorse and delusionment sets in.
00:33:47.080And Trump's number, net plus seven right now, we don't have a single data point at all, like anywhere past June, July in any of the other presidencies.
00:33:59.140Normally presidents are getting beat up right now, and right now Donald Trump is taking aggressive action to crack down on domestic terrorists, and it would appear that America is cheering.
00:34:08.340And this is the problem we find ourselves in because I wasn't sure if they were going to keep lying.
00:34:16.120They lose a significant amount of money.
00:34:18.020Look at the propagandists at FiveThirtyEight and how much money that the New York Times and Disney threw into that black hole of propaganda and information gatekeeping, and they finally just shut it down.
00:34:49.520Right now, the last time I looked, multiple times, combined CNN and Fox News – or combined CNN and MSNBC, prime time viewership in the demo was less than half of Fox News combined.
00:35:01.820And now we're hearing talk about, well, maybe some of these networks will be taken over and turned into conservative-leaning things.
00:35:09.600But the problem is is that the internet stole a march on America, and that's the problem.
00:35:15.600It's that there's really a political battle between the right and the left and their lies, and the right is winning right now, as anybody who goes to Twitter can see.
00:35:23.400The predominant narrative now has completely been replaced by common sense, like pro-MAGA agenda-type things.
00:35:31.680Like, nope, we can't have mentally deranged people getting surgically altered as minors on the taxpayer dollar.
00:35:40.400No, we shouldn't have, like, violent narco-terrorists flooding across our border.
00:35:43.960And that's good, but the problem is is that there's another battle, and that's the battle for the mind of our kids and for this fourth turning.
00:35:52.300And what is society going to look like, and how is it going to reform itself?
00:35:55.800And if society is reformed based on the current set of values owned by the 18- to 29-year-olds, mostly Zoomers, then we're in real trouble.
00:36:07.560And that's the people that are going to come in front of Congress and get raked over the coals.
00:36:11.900Hopefully, I don't even know, unless these people are septuagenarians.
00:36:15.280They might not even understand the right things to ask.
00:36:17.820I want to bifurcate that because I think, and I keep saying this, I think there's segments of the 18- to 30-year-olds that are the most based generation this country's ever had.
00:36:29.580And I think the salvation of this nation lies in there.
00:37:09.800But talk to us about Reddit, because I think people were shocked the other day, because a lot of people remember Reddit in 16 with the Donald and I think Great Awakening.
00:41:05.560Everybody pretty much has a Steam account.
00:41:08.600And that's like, okay, if I'm going to play video games on my computer, then I'm going to be exposed to a culture that has been purifying itself.
00:41:37.020All the video game developers now have been infested by woke to the point where they're actually shutting down because they can't even put good content out.
00:41:44.700The fact that this, like – I don't know how many tens of billions of dollars the video game industry is, but these are massive companies that have been imploding over the last five or six years along with all the movie studios because the message doesn't sell.
00:41:57.340But the problem is is that the kids are still ubiquitously getting the message online.
00:42:03.660The transgenderism subreddit on Reddit is as big as the Christianity subreddit.
00:45:42.400He can put you on with himself or one of his team, and they'll walk you through everything.
00:45:46.640So make sure that you understand why gold has been a hedge against times of financial turmoil, turbulence, for 5,000 years of mankind's history, particularly as we're heading into a third world war.
00:46:02.580Seems like we're getting dragged into every day.
00:46:04.260We saw President Trump yesterday in the United Kingdom talking about Putin.
00:46:09.360And so I think you're going to see tariffs, more economic warfare coming because the Europeans won't stand up with troops' money.
00:46:16.360Whatever they promised Ukraine, they ain't going to be there.
