Elon Musk, the world s richest man, became a darling of the right and an influential figure in Donald Trump s orbit. But how did he become a darling to the right? And why did he ally himself with the Trump administration?
00:25:46.000While America was celebrating the holiday season with church services, family dinners, and a brief respite from this year's tensions, a very different story was unfolding in MAGA world.
00:25:58.000Headlines from Donald Trump's transition team over the last two weeks have centered not on the holiday cheer and the excitement of the upcoming inauguration, And the controversial issue of eliminating caps on H-1B visas.
00:26:15.000Unfortunately for Elon Musk, these headlines have been anything but flattering.
00:26:20.000Over the course of a few days, he and the so-called tech right, as they like to call themselves, launched a relentless campaign to defend the unfettered influx of foreign workers, particularly from India, brought in under the H-1B visa system to replace American workers with foreigners.
00:26:39.000What followed next was nothing short of a spectacular fall from grace by proponents of Doge, as Elon Musk alienated the MAGA base and simultaneously turned X, his social media platform that he owns, into a tool of censorship against critics while he called these so-called critics of H-1B visas subtards, retards and contentable fools.
00:27:03.000How did Elon Musk, the world's richest man, become a darling of the right and an influential figure in Donald Trump's orbit?
00:27:10.000Well, many of you may recall that before this summer, Elon Musk styled himself as politically neutral.
00:27:15.000He said that X was not going to get involved in politics.
00:27:20.000He had donated in the past to Obama's campaign.
00:27:27.000He even supported Ron DeSantis, but only occasionally hinted at having his so-called libertarian-leaning views.
00:27:34.000And it wasn't until the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump on July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania, that Musk publicly aligned himself with President Trump's re-election bid.
00:27:47.000And then, of course, he endorsed President Trump's campaign and wrote a big fat check for over $200 million.
00:27:55.000Elon was not the only wealthy Silicon Valley executive to suddenly throw their weight behind Donald Trump.
00:28:01.000The addition of J.D. Vance as President Trump's running mate earlier this year appeared to galvanize a new wave of tech elites into supporting Donald Trump's campaign.
00:28:10.000Vance, known for his ties to billionaire investor Peter Thiel, well, he brought with him a network of many influential donors from the tech world and Silicon Valley.
00:28:21.000Many of these people have been Trump haters.
00:28:25.000But with J.D. Vance, they found themselves miraculously supporting Donald Trump.
00:28:30.000So soon, figures like David Sachs and Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, the executives and co-founders of Palantir, Jeff Bezos, and even Mark Zuckerberg all cozied up to President Trump's campaign, opening their wallets in the process.
00:28:49.000A second Trump administration offered them The promise of policies favorable to their industries and expanded influence over the levers of power in Washington.
00:29:02.000Trump had secured re-election and his second term administration was beginning to take shape.
00:29:07.000With each passing day, announcements were made about new appointments to key positions in the White House.
00:29:13.000Elon Musk was tapped to head the newly proposed Department of Government Efficiency with Vivek Ramaswamy.
00:29:19.000David Sachs has been named the crypto and AI czar, you know, just making up positions at this point in time.
00:29:26.000One after another, Silicon Valley's elite seem to be angling for a seat at the table.
00:29:32.000For many loyal conservatives, such as myself, this has been just a bitter pill to swallow, I must admit.
00:29:39.000These tech titans, who only recently jumped on the MAGA bandwagon after years of Trump hatred and criticism, Have now secured positions and a lot of power in the Trump administration, despite their years and their record of questionable conservative credentials.
00:29:57.000The final straw for me, though, was the appointment of Siram Krishnan as Trump's new AI advisor.
00:30:03.000Krishnan, a vocal advocate for expanding legal immigration and an Indian immigrant, has long championed the H-1B visa system.
00:30:13.000A program that was originally intended to provide temporary, high-skilled workers for specialized industries, so they say.
00:30:23.000You see, it's being abused to provide a pipeline of cheap foreign labor, often at the expense of American workers.
00:30:31.000Musk and his big tech bros We're not too happy about how this played out.
00:30:36.000And as you saw, if you were following along, they decided to launch a full-blown assault on MAGA. You see, for them, they think that geniuses from abroad need to fill positions at Tesla and SpaceX, or as they like to call it, the best and the brightest.
00:30:59.000Because Silicon Valley thinks that we just don't have any bright people here in America.
00:31:04.000In the reality, the majority of the H-1B visas are now being given out for such mundane jobs as fast food and customer service representatives.
00:31:22.000Moreover, these temporary positions are rarely ever temporary.
00:31:26.000Instead, these positions often find ways to overstay their visas or find loopholes to stay in America permanently, which is why we have such a high number of illegal aliens living in the United States.
00:31:37.000Contrary to popular belief, many of the illegals who are living in America were able to get into our country legally, but they are now overstaying their visa.
00:31:46.000Understand the H-1B visa system is crushing the American worker.
00:31:51.000Consider the story of a young white man from middle America.
00:31:54.000He works hard, excels in high school, and earns a degree in computer science with dreams of working for companies like SpaceX or even Meta.
00:32:02.000But when he graduates with a 4.0 GPA, he finds that his resume is consistently overlooked by foreign workers who often arrive through this very broken H-1B system, sometimes with exaggerated or even fabricated qualifications.
00:32:22.000It's the sad reality for countless Americans who now find themselves unemployed and unable to find jobs in the sectors which they earned a degree in, saddling themselves instead with broken dreams and endless student debt.
00:32:36.000So the driving force behind the system is clear.
00:32:39.000Tech companies want to keep labor costs low.
00:32:42.000In a world obsessed with profit margins, stockholder value, and GDP growth, it seems the identity of the worker doesn't matter so long as the job is done at the lowest possible cost.
00:32:53.000So when I raised concerns about Kirshnan's appointment to the Trump administration on X, and when I posted publicly available FEC records, which proved that Kirshnan donated to anti-Trump Democrats like Roe Khanna less than a month before the 2024 presidential election,
00:33:10.000Elon Musk and his allies launched an all-out defense of the H-1B system, which led to the censorship of my account on X. As criticism from other right wing voices grew louder, Musk's behavior became increasingly erratic.
00:33:24.000Evidently, cheap Indian labor is the hill that Elon Musk and all of his associates in Silicon Valley were willing to die on.
00:33:31.000It's the hill that they were really willing to throw all of their good faith with MAGA out the door with.
00:34:09.000And he also amplified tweets in which other people, the Elon Reply guys, were calling Americans retards.
00:34:17.000Somehow incapable of staffing these tech jobs, you know, because we're just, we don't have our own culture, according to Vivek Ramaswamy.
00:34:24.000You know, we're just a bunch of dumb white crackers, according to Vivek Ramaswamy.
00:34:27.000And, you know, white people just aren't smart enough, according to Vivek Ramaswamy.
00:34:32.000He argued that anyone not in favor of taking in unlimited amounts of Indians actually wanted China to win, and he called the critics of H-1B visas to be purged from the Republican Party.
00:34:43.000He said these contemptible fools need to be purged.
00:34:47.000Note that China is not currently tripping over themselves to import these mythical Indian geniuses into their own country.
00:34:56.000Then, in an ironic twist of fate, Elon Musk, the so-called free speech absolutist, launched a wave of censorship.
00:35:04.000Diversification and shadow banning on X against myself and dozens of other right-wing accounts.
00:35:09.000And, you know, this was very sad because I, of course, was, you know, very grateful to Elon for reinstating my account.
00:35:15.000And I wanted to believe that he was going to be an ally to MAGA. And so I found myself very disturbed over these last few days as I found myself and many others, you know, completely censored on X, just like Twitter 1.0.
00:35:28.000I mean, it wasn't until yesterday that I had my checkmark completely taken away and I only got...
00:35:33.000I got it back yesterday after having it gone for about a week.
00:35:35.000So for the crime of disagreeing on this critical issue, I not only had my verification badge removed from my X account and my reach was intentionally throttled, which I believe it still is, but I was also demonetized by X and all of my paying subscribers have been taken away from me with no explanation from X. Today I had to reapply for monetization.
00:36:03.000But other accounts, such as those of the New York Young Republicans' President Gavin Wax, InfoWars host Owen Troyer, and political commentator Nick Fuentes met a similar fate.
00:36:14.000Others were just permanently banned entirely.
00:36:16.000And so, in a matter of days, Elon Musk has revealed himself as...
00:36:21.000In my opinion, a free speech hypocrite.
00:36:23.000I'm grateful that he gave money to Trump.
00:36:26.000I'm grateful that he reinstated my checkmark.
00:36:28.000But, you know, we have to call a spade a spade.
00:36:31.000The man who once championed free speech and American exceptionalism has betrayed those principles to protect his business interests and our deeply flawed immigration system.
00:36:41.000Yesterday, after being stripped of my verification badge for over a week, it was finally reinstated without any explanation.
00:38:41.000Well, well good evening and thanks so much for tuning in to episode 91 of loomer unleashed i'm your host We're live right now on X and on Rumble, so please be sure you subscribe.

00:39:41.000We have so much to talk about tonight, you guys.
00:39:44.000So much to go over and so much to review.
00:39:48.000If you were watching what happened over Christmas and you saw firsthand how, you know, big tech billionaires got in a full-blown war with MAGA. It was all kicked off by, you know, one of my tweets in which I very mildly criticized Suram Krishnan, who's this new appointee by President Trump.
00:40:05.000And we have a lot of clips to go over, a lot of tech billionaires to discuss tonight.
00:40:11.000I'm sure you all saw the news today about Mark Zuckerberg and this video that he released.
00:40:16.000And now it seems like that Donald Trump won this election that all of the big tech executives just kind of want to jump on the MAGA movement, right?
00:40:53.000Everybody and deplatformed Parler and then sent over all the information from Parler to the FBI so that people were, you know, targeted by the feds for simply organizing to go to the Capitol peacefully on January 6th.
00:41:06.000I mean, honestly, a million dollars is toilet paper money for these people, so...
00:41:11.000I have a lot to say, and, you know, I've been saying a lot since Christmas about this.
00:41:17.000I'm very unhappy about the appointment of a lot of these big tech executives.
00:41:21.000I don't like their outbursts over Christmas and how they called us a bunch of subtards and retards and, you know, said that we have no culture of our own.
00:41:29.000So let's just jump right into it, okay?
00:41:32.000Let's go ahead and show some of these clips from the Christmas break and also what has been happening in the media in this very viral moment.
00:41:42.000Let's go ahead and start with clip number three, where Caitlin Collins ended up dedicating an entire segment of her show.
00:41:49.000It's a bit of a long clip, but I feel like for those of you who are just catching up, you know, you kind of need to see the context for yourself.
00:41:57.000So we're going to go ahead and play this 10-minute clip from CNN because...
00:42:03.000Well, free speech is on the line, and I'm pretty concerned about all these people talking about how they support free speech, but then they're having little outbursts on social media and shutting people down over a disagreement about policy, because I'm pretty sure that we're going to have, you know, a lot more policy disagreements with these big tech billionaires aside from...
00:42:25.000I mean, what's going to happen when Donald Trump decides that he wants to put tariffs on China or that he wants to oppose the reunification of Taiwan?
00:42:34.000Are these big tech executives just going to write another check for $200 million or $1 million and then go to war with MAGA when we say no?
00:42:40.000We're opposed to the CCP's invasion of Taiwan?
00:42:44.000So this is just one, I think, the first of many...
00:42:50.000Tension points that we're going to see between the so-called tech right and OG MAGA. Let's go ahead and play clip number three.
00:42:57.000In his clash with the far right over immigration, Elon Musk is now going after the hardliners, the very heart of the MAGA base, labeling them just a few hours ago as, quote, contemptible fools who must be removed from the Republican Party root and stem.
00:43:13.000Musk now finds himself pitted against the likes of Steve Bannon, however, Trump's former White House aide who came out against Musk's push for H-1B visas, which allow highly skilled foreign workers into the U.S. and has long been the lifeblood of Silicon Valley.
00:43:33.000It's about taking American jobs and bringing over essentially what have become indentured servants at lower wages.
00:43:39.000This thing's a scam by the oligarchs in Silicon Valley to basically take jobs from American citizens, give them to what become indentured servants from foreign countries, and then pay them less.
00:43:56.000To let them in through the golden door.
00:44:01.000Now, Bannon's comments align him with people like the far-right activist Laura Loomer, who has been bashing Musk for days now on this and is even accusing him of censoring her on his own platform.
00:44:12.000She is the anti-immigrant Trump ally who is now claiming that her blue checkmark was removed, her subscriptions were deactivated, her character limits for tweets and posts on X were limited.
00:44:23.000For what she says is, quote, raising concerns and speaking the truth about the technocratic takeover of our country and the White House.
00:44:31.000Now, that was after she posted racist messages like this, saying our country was built by white Europeans, actually, not third-world invaders from India.
00:44:40.000More on what she is saying about why she lost those privileges on X in a moment with Donio Sullivan.
00:44:47.000But all of this began after Trump named Sharam Krishnan, a tech entrepreneur and investor who was born in India, as his senior policy advisor on artificial intelligence.
00:44:57.000He's not an immigration advisor for Trump, but this started this entire backlash.
00:45:01.000And it's culminated today with Elon Musk not backing off of his stance, despite the backlash that he is facing from the MAGA right.
00:45:09.000Instead, he's writing tonight, anyone of any race, creed, or nationality who came to America and worked like hell to contribute to this country will forever have my respect.
00:45:19.000Noticeably silent in all of this infighting in his party?
00:45:24.000My political sources tonight are the former deputy assistant to President Biden, Jamal Simmons, editor-in-chief of The Dispatch, Jonah Goldberg, and CNN senior correspondent, Donio Sullivan.
00:45:36.000Jonah, I'm sure you've been watching just like I have as all this has been playing out, only, you know, getting worse today with really just seeing these people at each other's throats on lines.
00:45:45.000What does it say to you that Trump himself, who is the king of weighing in on things online, has not done so?
00:45:54.000Because he doesn't have a good answer to this problem, right?
00:45:58.000He's got a very tight, small coalition as presidents go.
00:46:02.000And there's just not a lot of giving it.
00:46:03.000I mean, it's symbolized by the fact he's going to have, what, a two-seat, maybe with his new defection, a three-seat majority in the House.
00:46:12.000If you have three or four or five congresspeople who agree with Laura Loomer and Steve Bannon, then you can't get any legislation done that Elon Musk wants.
00:46:21.000And so he's stuck in this hard place where he hasn't quite yet figured out how to get peace amongst the various Trumpy tribes back together.
00:46:32.000I don't think this is going to be the schism that tears apart MAGA, but it is the first sign of what is probably going to be a good number of schisms and fault lines that divide people who have irreconcilable positions.
00:46:44.000Yeah, it is remarkable to see this because some people who have studied Elon Musk for a long time were saying that when when this.
00:46:52.000Friendship was blossoming, that inevitably there are major differences between Trump's base and them on this issue.
00:46:59.000And, Doni, just on how all of this started was with Trump's pick for an AI advisory role that's going to be sitting not in the West Wing, but in the building next door.
00:47:10.000And, you know, this has caused such a huge issue.
00:47:14.000Laura Luma, we'll get into that in a moment, but was accused of posting his address online and sharing documents like that, which is why some people said was the real reason she was taken away from those things on Twitter.
00:47:26.000Yeah, I mean, I think, look, a big part of the reason that this adviser in question is being targeted is because he's not white.
00:47:36.000And, you know, you can just go on to X and see the vitriol around this conversation.
00:47:42.000I mean, they try and say it's about visas and everything else.
00:47:45.000But really, you do not need to scratch the surface too far just to see the level of racism and hate and just really ugly stuff that's happening on that platform.
00:47:55.000Yeah, you guys, the reason why he's being targeted is because he's not white.
00:48:01.000Yeah, because I didn't publicly say that I support Vivek Ramaswamy, who's also, you know, not white and Indian, so...
00:48:10.000You just gotta love, like, the reach of CNN. Like, oh, you know, the real reason that they're upset isn't because, you know, Donald Trump is on video making promises to the base in 2016 that he's going to completely eradicate H-1B. No, it's because the guy is brown.
00:48:37.000Have a serious conversation about how these people who are from Silicon Valley, who are career leftists, who have donated to Democrats, I proved when they say, oh, she shared his address.
00:50:39.000...part, right, because a lot of the white supremacists and racists and others who had been suspended by Twitter for spreading hate under the previous ownership were all brought back onto the platform under Elon Musk.
00:50:59.000And so what you're having now is you have people who are also incentivized by the structure put in place in Musk to have these kind of viral posts where they pick on somebody, essentially, and try to get them to go viral.
00:51:10.000And chief among them is Laura Loomer, who, for people who don't...
00:51:37.000So, yeah, Loomer has about 1.5 million followers on X. She's a big voice in the MAGA. As much as I think maybe a lot of establishment Republicans, even people who are close to Trump, would like to say that, you know, she doesn't have influence, she does certainly in this space.
00:51:54.000What happened over the past 24 hours is she has a verified blue badge account, which I think to a lot of people just say, so what, it's a blue badge.
00:52:02.000But what that allows her to do on the platform under Musk is it allows two things.
00:52:30.000We haven't heard from X, we haven't heard from Musk specifically, but Musk did call her out a few times during the week, essentially calling her a troll.
00:52:43.000I think that everyone, if you like her or dislike her, can agree on that.
00:52:47.000Jamal, we're going to ask a House Republican in a moment about his view on this and where this stands, as Jonah was referencing, you know, whether anything can get done in Congress.
00:52:55.000We had Jared Polis, the Democratic governor of Colorado, on the program last night.
00:52:59.000He was agreeing with Vivek Ramoswam and Elon Musk, and I heard from people after saying, you know, that's not going to help Elon as he's making his case here with Democrats.
00:53:10.000Of course, Caitlin Collins is going to say that I'm a troll.
00:53:13.000I mean, look, I have more followers than she does at this point.
00:53:21.000I have more followers than Caitlin Collins.
00:53:23.000So, of course, I probably get more views on my show here on X and on Rumble every Tuesday and Thursday than she gets all week on her shitty little show on CNN. So, yeah.
00:53:33.000Ha ha ha, let's just call everybody that we don't like a troll.
00:53:36.000And ha ha ha, let's just celebrate demonetization and deplatforming of people that we don't like.
00:53:42.000Yeah, so since when is it considered doxing to post an FEC record?
00:53:49.000So I ended up getting my account back.
00:53:51.000I ended up getting my blue check back.
00:53:52.000But as I already proved, so through a post that was posted by Milo Yiannopoulos, I showed that he posted an FEC record of a PAC where he was smearing multiple people in a tweet.
00:54:04.000And I showed how the addresses were completely uncensored.
00:54:08.000And then when it was reported by about, you know, 30 people.
00:54:24.000I ended up getting my blue check back.
00:54:26.000But of course, you know, they're not being honest about how this went down.
00:54:31.000Twitter never even sent me notification about what happened.
00:54:34.000I'm grateful that I now have my blue check back again, but I still would like to know an answer as to how this all happened and what it means for the future of free speech on the platform.
00:54:46.000But we're going to talk a lot about free speech tonight.
00:54:49.000We have a very special guest coming up.
00:54:51.000Today is, of course, the 10-year anniversary of the Charlie Hebdo Islamic terrorist attack.
00:54:59.000I'm going to be joined by my guest, Bosh Faustin.
00:55:02.000But before that, I want to take a moment to thank the sponsor of tonight's episode of Loomer Unleashed, and that is Kirk Elliott Precious Metals.
00:55:10.000What happens to your money in the bank when the BRICS nations continue their economic warfare against America and start dumping their U.S. treasuries in retaliation to the Trump tariffs?
00:55:23.000Did you know that FDIC only has about 1.2% of all deposits insured?
00:55:29.000It doesn't take much for a bankrupt significantly worse than what we saw after Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, and First Republic failed.
00:55:37.000You need to get out of the system with the world's safest assets, silver and gold.
00:55:52.000I've decided to partner with Kirk Elliott Precious Metals as Dr. Kirk cares about you.
00:55:58.000He is trustworthy, honest, and he educates you and your family before you make a purchase to make sure that it's the right purchase and decision for you.
00:56:08.000Kirk only deals with low-cost bullion that doesn't carry high premiums.
00:56:12.000And what I love is that physical metals can even be placed in your IRA. So call them at 720-605-3900 or schedule a call online at kepm.com and get out of the system with one of the safest and most private assets in the world.
00:56:57.000I'm really grateful for their support.
00:56:59.000Obviously, you know, we are a controversial show.
00:57:02.000Not controversial for any reason other than the reason that we speak truth.
00:57:07.000So a lot of people seem to have a problem with that.
00:57:09.000And so we want to support people and we want to support companies and we want to support industries that are supporting free speech because, as you just saw, free speech is under attack in America right now.
00:57:21.000Not just by the radical left, but even by some on the right.
00:57:25.000So head on over to KEPM.com slash Lumer.
00:57:39.000So for those of you who are unaware, today is the 10th anniversary of the Charlie Hebdo Islamic terrorist attack.
00:57:47.000If you recall, 10 years ago, Islamic terrorists stormed the headquarters of Charlie Hebdo in Paris, France.
00:57:55.000And we have some clips, actually, and we have some news headlines if we want to refresh your memory so that you can see exactly how horrific this attack was.
00:58:08.000You know, it's just a testament to how free speech has really been under attack for a very long time.
00:58:14.000And one of the most intolerant groups towards free speech are Islamic terrorists and jihadists.
00:58:21.000And for those of you who are unfamiliar with Charlie Hebdo, it's a satirical magazine.
00:58:31.000And one of the things that Charlie Hebdo often does is they draw and they publish Mohammed Khan.
00:58:37.000And it's considered a form of blasphemy and Islam to draw the Prophet Muhammad.
00:58:45.000So my next guest, who will be on momentarily, is Bosh Boston.
00:58:51.000For those of you who have read my book, Loomer Unleashed, my book, excuse me, Loomer, How I Became the Most Banned Woman in the World, you'll know that I had...
00:59:02.000A dedication in my book to the victims of the Charlie Hebdo Islamic terrorist attack.
00:59:06.000And I did so by having Bosh Fawson, who is about to join me momentarily, commissioned to make Mohammed cartoons and graphics for every single chapter in my book.
00:59:19.000And this is a bit big, so it's going to take a lot of camera space to show you.
00:59:27.000This is one of the really large posters that I had made.
00:59:30.000So maybe my producer here at Cannon, you want to walk around the corner?
00:59:51.000So I have this Graphic made for my book.
00:59:57.000And this is called Silicon Valley Sharia.
01:00:00.000And you can see behind me, all of the tech executives were made into Muslims.
01:00:08.000And I did this, and you can see that's me below.
01:00:12.000That's the graphic for the chapter in my book, Silicon Valley Sharia.
01:00:16.000I did that because, well, for those of you who know why I was banned, I was banned for speaking out against Ilhan Omar.
01:00:24.000Jihadist member of Congress and exposing the fact that she is pro-Islamic terror, anti-Jewish, and as a result, I was heavily censored for doing so.
01:00:36.000So all of the chapters of my book have a Mohammed cartoon illustration.
01:00:40.000If you haven't read my book, you can get it on my website and you can even get it on Amazon.
01:00:47.000It was supposed to be a dedication to the victims of Charlie Hebdo because, well, you know, you're not really allowed to publish Muhammad cartoons.
01:00:55.000It's very dangerous to draw the Prophet Muhammad because so many Muslims are so intolerant and they will literally kill you for doing so.
01:01:02.000And my guest tonight, Bosh, has been, he's had fatwas.
01:01:09.000Death sentences issued against him by Muslims all around the world simply because, well, he draws the Prophet Muhammad.
01:01:17.000He invented a cartoon character called Pigman.
01:01:20.000And for those of you who followed the Charlie Hebdo Islamic terrorist attack, you'll know that shortly after that, Pamela Geller decided to have, and I used to work for her, Pamela Geller had her own Muhammad cartoon contest in...
01:01:37.000And Bosch was the winner of that cartoon contest.
01:01:41.000And an ISIS terrorist actually ended up showing up to the Garland Muhammad cartoon contest in Garland, Texas and opened, fired, and almost killed a bunch of people.
01:02:39.000Garland police said Monday that the two attackers used assault rifles.
01:02:43.000They drove up to the entrance that was blocked by a squad car, got out, and started shooting.
01:02:47.000The attackers hit a school security guard in the leg.
01:02:50.000So what was really crazy about this is that...
01:02:54.000The terrorists, so federal law enforcement sources have identified the suspects as roommates Elton Simpson and Nadir Sufi.
01:03:03.000And the FBI, it later came out, they knew about these guys, and the FBI actually followed them all the way to the Mohammed cartoon contest.
01:03:12.000So it's just a testament to, you know, how the FBI often knows about these Islamic terrorists who are trying to commit attacks in our country and abroad.
01:03:24.000The recent terrorist attacks on New Year's in New Orleans where an ISIS terrorist opened fire and he used the meta glasses.
01:03:31.000So, you know, again, a lot of these social media companies and the FBI, they want to attack conservatives and they want to attack J6ers and President Trump, but they're well aware of these Islamic terrorists and these terror cells, which are now widespread in our country, and they do absolutely nothing to stop them.
01:03:54.000Yeah, we have some footage, actually, while we're waiting for Bosch to join.
01:03:57.000He said he's running a little bit behind schedule.
01:04:00.000But we can show the footage now of the New Orleans ISIS terrorist who killed several people the other day on New Year's.
01:04:08.000footage that's been released of him utilizing these meta glasses. . . . . . . . .
01:05:06.000So, if you're wondering, what all that surveillance footage is, it's footage that's been released by the FBI showing the ISIS terrorists who just carried out an ISIS terrorist attack in New Orleans the other day using the meta glasses, they call them the virtual reality headsets that meta produces, to scope out the area down by Bourbon Street where...
01:05:31.000So kind of crazy to think that technology and AI and, you know, virtual reality glasses are now being utilized by Islamic terrorist organizations to plot attacks against American citizens.
01:05:45.000So really sad that, you know, people wanted to just go out and have a good time on New Year's and now they're dead.
01:05:55.000We have some footage to refresh your memory of what happened in Paris, France 10 years ago, the Charlie Hebdo attack.
01:06:02.000So let's go ahead and play this video compilation.
01:06:05.000It's about two minutes long and Bosch should be joining us momentarily.
01:08:46.000Because the guns were the things that attacked, right?
01:08:48.000It's not the Muslims that were shouting Allahu Akbar as they went into a magazine headquarter because they couldn't stand the fact that somebody was drawing Muhammad.
01:08:57.000You know, we have the cover here in my studio.
01:08:59.000So in honor of Charlie Hebdo years ago, actually.
01:09:04.000I got an original copy of the Charlie Hebdo cover and I have it framed in my office.
01:10:22.000But as I was saying, while we're waiting for his audio to connect.
01:10:25.000You know, the reason why I have these Muhammad cartoons up in my studio and in my office, it's because it's a reminder of what I do what I do and why I do what I do.
01:10:35.000And it's because I am fighting to protect not only free speech, but also Western civilization.
01:10:42.000And people have literally been gunned down for simply drawing a cartoon.
01:10:47.000You know, really hear about stories like this much anymore, but it happens.
01:10:50.000It happens here in the United States and it has happened abroad in places like Paris.
01:10:55.000And my next guest, Bosh Faustin, he's been the victim of this and as a Mohammed cartoonist himself, he's been targeted by Islamic terrorists and was almost killed here in Texas by an ISIS terrorist.
01:11:10.000So joining me now is world-renowned Mohammed cartoonist, Bosh Faustin.
01:12:07.000It's a gun attack because even the media in places like...
01:12:11.000The UK, you know, headquarters of the BBC, they are so terrified of scaring Muslims.
01:12:18.000And we can see now with the amplification, to his credit, you know, look, obviously I'm a bit disappointed in Elon Musk right now because of his censorship of conservatives this week and, you know, the way he kind of had this outburst over H-1B visas.
01:12:34.000But to his credit, he's been raising global awareness about an issue that has been ignored by A lot of people for the last 10 years while it's been reported on.
01:12:44.000And that is the issue of the rape gangs in the UK by these Muslim gangbangers, these Pakistani Muslim migrants that are getting away with raping underage British girls.
01:12:55.000And you'll notice that people are so afraid to talk about this.
01:13:01.000And Elon Musk has called for the resignation and the challenge, politically speaking, of some of these UK representatives because Because their unwillingness, and they're unwilling to talk about these things, not because they don't want to admit their existence,
01:13:17.000but because they are afraid of the Muslims who have now, well, they're on track to completely overpopulate non-Muslims in places like the UK, where Mohammed is now the number one baby name.
01:13:33.000What do you think about this 10-year anniversary?
01:13:37.000Have we learned our lesson about the threat of Islam?
01:13:40.000Has the UK, has France, has the United States of America learned its lesson about the dangers of Islamic immigration and the intolerance of so many of these Islamic immigrants that they have towards our constitutional values, especially the First Amendment and free speech?
01:14:45.000And ten years, it just hit me the old day.
01:14:47.000I was doing a live stream on my own channel and it just hit me ten years.
01:14:51.000I didn't even think about it for the last year or so.
01:14:53.000I was like 10 years and also it's been 10 years since I won the contest in May 3rd of 2015. So no, I don't think we have, but I think individuals like Elon are doing the world a big favor by bringing a big platform to this issue.
01:15:08.000Because a lot of people who are hearing about this for the first time, the Muslim Pedophile gang rapists.
01:15:42.000So they don't want to talk about this.
01:15:44.000And in Islam, as you know, as somebody who's studied Islam like I have, you know that it's a form of blasphemy.
01:15:51.000Not just to draw Muhammad, but also to criticize or reform Muhammad.
01:15:56.000So if you say that Muhammad shouldn't have raped a nine-year-old girl, Muhammad shouldn't have married a six-year-old girl, you could be killed in Islam for saying that.
01:16:03.000You could be killed in the UK for saying that these Muslim gangbangers are wrong for raping these little girls because to them, they're just being good Muslims.
01:16:12.000They literally believe that it's their duty as a Muslim to rape nine year old girls because the Koran teaches them that you have to be like Muhammad, who is the most ideal man in Islam.
01:16:23.000And so for them, they live their life according to the ways of Muhammad, which means doing exactly as Muhammad did to the T, which includes raping a nine year old girl.
01:17:19.000Yeah, and you made, you actually, as one of your trading cards, you could tell our audience about some of these Muhammad cartoons because you've, tell us, we have images, actually, of some of the cartoons that you've made.
01:17:31.000You made a Muhammad Musk graphic, so I wanted to get those pulled up because, tell us about why you made this Muhammad Musk cartoon and how it's part of your series, and we also have a copy of the email that you sent out, the email blast that you sent out.
01:17:58.000This is something that I've been going on about.
01:18:01.000And you said that while you like Elon Musk's rhetoric about free speech, that he's a free speech absolutist, I've now challenged him a number of times to support Muhammad cartoons.
01:18:13.000So explain to us why you challenged Elon Musk and why you decided to make him his very own Muhammad trading cartoon.
01:18:23.000Because when someone like him in his position says that he's a free speech absolutist, I need to put that to the test.
01:18:28.000And the test in today's world, the way we are in today's world is that that's the flashpoint, drawing Muhammad and supporting those who draw Muhammad.
01:18:36.000I don't care what you say about anything else.
01:18:38.000You could say, yeah, I support this, but it's always a matter of I'm a free speech absolutist, but I'm not for Muhammad cartoons.
01:20:15.000I am a collector of Muhammad cartoons, as you know, and I've spent a lot of money with you before, and you obviously did the commission graphics, the Silicon Sharia.
01:20:27.000We've done some street art projects together.
01:20:31.000I want you to talk about what it was like almost being murdered by an ISIS terrorist because people need to understand that this isn't just happening in places like Pakistan and, you know, it's not just happening in the UK. This isn't just happening in Paris where Muslims are walking into, you know, magazine headquarters and murdering 12 people because they drew a cartoon.
01:20:50.000You were almost murdered at your very own Muhammad cartoon contest with my former employer, Pamela Geller, when she hosted a Muhammad cartoon.
01:21:21.000Don't draw Muhammad, because there's a long history of Gerald Muhammad in the Islamic world.
01:21:26.000The Shiites have been painting Muhammad for, I guess, 300 years, 400 years, maybe longer than that even.
01:21:31.000So it's not an ironclad prohibition, but they just want to tell the infidel, you better not draw him.
01:21:37.000It's just another way for them to try to control us.
01:21:39.000So when that contest came up, I had drawn Muhammad a few dozen times at that point.
01:21:43.000And the reason why Pamela did it was because it was after the Charlie Hebdo massacre, there was an event in Texas at the Curtis Caldwell Center in Garland, Texas, where they had a Defend the Prophet conference.
01:21:55.000And Pamela Geller looked at us and said, you know what?
01:21:57.000We're going to have a Mahama cartoon contest.
01:22:00.000We're going to announce the winner at that same place, at that same location, which is what happened a few months later.
01:22:06.000So I entered, and I heard there was like 350 different entries.
01:23:12.000And so, yeah, it's just it's an amazing thing to be in an event and almost got killed.
01:23:18.000And the only thing I was worried about at that moment was I want to get back home because I had a flight, you know, and my friend said, gosh, this is a terrorist attack.
01:24:58.000They're only six out of 20. So yeah, that's what I have.
01:25:02.000Yeah, it was, you know, and again, the exciting fact, I don't really talk about that, but it is exciting because you're doing something that you know to be true and good.
01:25:10.000You're defying an enemy at war with you.
01:25:12.000It's like, you know what, to hell with you guys.
01:25:58.000What are some of the other threats and things you've experienced over the last 10 years or some of the censorship or deplatforming or demonetization or security threats that you've received?
01:26:07.000I know you've had several fatwas issued against you.
01:26:11.000If you could just tell people the extent of what you've had to go through as not a foreigner, but an American citizen.
01:26:19.000This is happening to an American citizen who is now unable...
01:26:25.000You are able in some capacity, but really, honestly, in a mainstream capacity, you are unable to do your job because of Islamic blasphemy laws here in the United States of America.
01:26:37.000So there are people here in America who are being subjected to these Islamic blasphemy laws, and I was hoping that you could tell my viewers about some of the trials and tribulations and conflicts you've experienced over the last 10 years as an American artist.
01:26:54.000Well, after I won the contest, I was invited to be the judge for a new Mahama cartoon contest in the Netherlands from Herb Wilders.
01:27:02.000And I was to announce the winner, choose the winner, announce it, do a speech at the Hague Parliament, draw Muhammad in the middle of my speech, and then announce it.
01:27:11.000And it fell through because the threats were so extreme.
01:27:14.000That even hair builders, you know, the security, they said, we can't take care of this.
01:27:20.000I got literally thousands of death threats, thousands, to the point where the FBI contacted me and they said, we're going to contact you this time.
01:27:36.000So I got more threats than any time in my life, not for winning the contest, not for even leaving Islam now, but for But being a judge for a potential mama cartoon contest, that was weird because it was like the most threats ever.
01:27:50.000So what I did was I took those threats, I put them in books alongside new fresh mama cartoons inspired by those threats.
01:28:02.000I can make at least two or three more.
01:28:04.000So I mean, look, it's like this is the path that I chose.
01:28:08.000So whatever I go through, in a sense, I brought it on.
01:28:11.000Even though I don't think Americans should be dealing with this, I don't think any civilized people should be dealing with this, but this is the part of the reality, because once you leave Islam, you're also an apostate.
01:28:19.000I mean, I'm to be killed just for that alone, much less Jaron Muhammad and, you know, create a character called Pigman who goes after jihadists.
01:28:26.000So, yeah, I don't see it as too much of a burden in the sense where I love doing what I do.
01:28:33.000I love to find this the scumbag enemy.
01:28:36.000And I love also just defending the issue of free speech, because to me, it's a life or death issue.
01:29:06.000And now I'm very fortunate because there's a group called the Comic Skate and it's an online movement of people supporting the work of comic artists who've been cancelled, like Ethan VanSkyver, John Malen, Shane Davis, Billy Tucci, Graham Nolan, all these artists who work for Marvel and DC Comics.
01:29:27.000They were all cancelled in their own individual way and they invited me.
01:29:33.000To be part of this group, so that's why I'll be relaunching Pigman with ComicScape soon, probably within a month, at the end of this month.
01:29:40.000So, however bad, and yet sometimes, that's life.
01:29:44.000You expect it, you know, Laura, you're gonna bring on a lot of shit that you might not like at times, it might be a burden, but at the same time, would you stop doing what you're doing?
01:30:09.000As long as you exercise it, as long as we have it, you have to use it.
01:30:12.000When you don't, that's when it's over.
01:30:14.000So yeah, whatever, you know, things I deal with, it's like, that's part of life.
01:30:18.000That's just, and if you want to take part in life, if you want to express your opinion as honestly as you can, you have to do it with free speech.
01:30:32.000I mean, our mutual friend, Tommy Robinson, amazing guy, like literally rotting away in prison right now for speaking out about these Islamic rape gangs.
01:31:33.000I mean, we're seeing now all these big tech executives who, you know, basically had Sharia comply in terms of service and, you know, they deplatformed a sitting United States president.
01:31:44.000They murdered people by banning pertinent information about COVID vaccines.
01:31:49.000And now they're all just writing these checks and they go to Mar-a-Lago and they're getting invited to the White House.
01:31:59.000I mean, today we saw Mark Zuckerberg come out and say, oh, you know, well, you know, we're going to get rid of our community note system or the fact checkers, and we're going to replace it with community notes like X, and we're against censorship now.
01:32:12.000And I just feel like these things are litmus tests, right?
01:32:15.000Like, I really feel like people like you and I are the litmus test for what it means to really be pro-free speech.
01:32:37.000And they're like, goddammit, I've been toned along for so long now, and I think they have that.
01:32:43.000And also, seeing him involved with Trump and even Zuckerberg, I think it was genuine, though, when he said that when Trump got up and said, fight, fight, fight, he said that was badass.
01:33:46.000A Mohammed cartoon of Jack Dorsey to highlight how Donald Trump has been completely deplatformed and how they literally will allow the Taliban to have access, but they won't let Trump.
01:35:39.000To show everybody how they're literally allowing for the Taliban to have access to social media, and they are not allowing for Donald Trump to have access.
01:36:26.000We can all be grateful for all of that.
01:36:28.000I'm not denying that Elon Musk did all those things, but he doesn't need to be so retaliatory against people for speaking out against immigration.
01:38:46.000Whether he wants it or not, what I'm saying is, you need a guy with balls who's willing to take it to the mat, to the limit, to fix the horrific...
01:40:00.000I think the good can fight a lot harder than evil.
01:40:02.000And that's what we did on Election Day and beyond, because now we've got four years to set things straight in a way that I think will be absolutely revolutionary.
01:40:11.000I believe the next four years will be revolutionary, hands down.
01:41:13.000It's actually one of my favorite sites.
01:41:15.000So this is a great site if you want to learn the truth about Islam and you want to see all of the attacks about, you know, Islamic terrorism that are happening all around the world.
01:41:23.000So you should go to the, I think it's the religionofpeace.com.
01:42:14.000Let's just maybe hold off until we get a weak president again.
01:42:16.000So I think, at least for now, I think they won't be as dominant in America, but they're going to try.
01:42:21.000Some of them, they don't give a shit about the circumstances.
01:42:24.000Allah, the word of Allah is the word of Allah.
01:42:26.000But I think in general, I think there are still some rational elements with these scumbags that they'll think twice.
01:42:32.000Because, you know, when Trump reiterated today, again, that there's going to be hell to pay if the hostias aren't freed, you know, from Hamas.
01:42:40.000That's a, you know, that's a guy who's talking some serious shit and they know he will back it up if necessary.
01:42:44.000He doesn't like, you know, Trump said he's not a war guy, but I will defend my people.
01:42:49.000I will defend Americans and I will defend our allies.
01:43:33.000I mean, and we still have even like elements like the Merriam-Webster's dictionary, they still have as jihad, holy war in the name of Islam.
01:45:42.000Anything else you wanted to say or comment?
01:45:45.000Any last thoughts about this 10-year anniversary of Charlie Hebdo and the upcoming 10-year anniversary of your own shooting, your own gun attack, as the media likes to call it, at your own Muhammad cartoon?
01:45:59.000I wrote an article a number of years ago called My Draw Muhammad Challenge.
01:46:58.000I got cleaned out recently from Comic Skates.
01:47:01.000We want to promote you and obviously everybody today on the 10-year anniversary of Charlie Hebdo, if you should do anything, you should go buy.
01:47:08.000Cartoons, Muhammad cartoons, or draw Muhammad.
01:47:11.000So what better way to honor and, you know, honor the memory of these people who were tragically murdered by these Islamic terrorists?
01:47:21.000What better way to honor them and to also basically give the middle finger to jihadists than to go buy some Muhammad cartoons today?
01:47:29.000So, Bosh, what's your website and where do people go to buy your amazing Muhammad cartoons, which are all over here?
01:47:38.000It's BoschFawson.com, and what I have left is Peaceful Death Threats, Volume 1, Muhammad Cartoons, Volume 1 and 2. Those are the books that I have left, because more or less everything else is sold out.
01:47:49.000I got my trading cards, my Muhammad...
01:47:54.000And I have this new trading card, which is my superhero, Pigman, who's also an ex-Muslim like me, who after 9-11 decides to go to war with the enemy in a physical way.
01:48:05.000And I have him punching Muhammad with his pigskin leather glove.
01:48:09.000And the reason why he wears pigskin is to exploit the Islamic enemy's pigetry.
01:49:34.000And thanks for never backing down, even in the face of, you know, ISIS terrorists showing up and literally trying to shoot your head off as they did in Texas.
01:49:44.000And I wanted to have a brave free speech fighter, free speech absolutist on my show today to honor the memory of those who died tragically 10 years ago today fighting for our free speech and Western civilization.
01:50:03.000I'm probably going to go buy another one of your cartoons later tonight when I'm done.
01:50:08.000And for those of you watching, please be sure that you support his work because obviously you can't get this in major bookstores.
01:50:15.000You cannot get these cartoons online because they're too scared to sell them, because they're too scared of Islamic blasphemy laws, so you can only buy them direct.
01:50:25.000One thing also, if I just mentioned, some people email me, I'm afraid to buy your stuff.
01:50:29.000I'm like, please don't email me about that.
01:51:27.000I want to take a moment to thank the second sponsor of tonight's episode of Loomer Unleashed, and that is Grassy.
01:51:34.000Sip on the power of nature with Grassy, the organic wellness water that does more than just hydrate your body.
01:51:41.000This small business was founded on a mission to keep jobs here at home in America, something that I support greatly, especially in rural communities.

01:54:06.000Barley grass juice powder is a potent nutrient-dense powder that provides the base for grassy infused with vitamin C, D, zinc to give your immune system and health an extra boost.
01:54:16.000Gluten-free for everybody out there who's gluten intolerant.
01:54:19.000I know there's a lot of people out there that have gluten allergies.
01:54:22.000It's harvested before the gluten forms in the barley grain, making grassy, plant-based, and 100% gluten-free.
01:55:22.000A lot of people, if you're trying to lose weight, if you're trying to be healthy, if you're trying to get your vitamins in and you're trying to go out and buy all these new supplements and have a health regimen, why go out and buy tons of vitamins and spend hundreds of dollars on buying tons of pills when you could get a drink that has your vitamin C, your vitamin D, and your zinc dosage that you need every single day?
01:55:45.000It's more economical than going and buying a bunch of supplements, actually, and that way you actually remember to take it.
01:55:51.000You're hydrating yourself because I personally, you know, I'm the kind of person that has cupboards full of supplements, and I personally, I forget to take them.
01:56:02.000Like, I love, you know, the beef organ stuff.
01:56:04.000I remember to take those because those give me energy.
01:56:06.000But a lot of my, like, vitamin C and zinc and vitamin D, I forget it.
01:56:11.000So for me, this is perfect because I can just wait.
01:56:14.000Wake up in the morning, go to the gym, bring a bottle of the grassy with me, and you get your vitamins and you get refreshed.
01:56:20.000It's healthy, low sugar, and you're not filling yourself with a sugary drink like a lot of these so-called health drinks that we see today.
01:56:28.000So if you are beginning the new year with a fitness regimen or a health regimen, I highly recommend that you go to grassy.com and get some grassy because you can't really put a price on your health, you guys.
01:56:45.000Moving on now, we talked about Elon and we talked about all the free speech issues right now with all these jihadists running around trying to kill people.
01:56:57.000Today, Mark Zuckerberg released this like 10 minute long video where he was basically saying, hey guys, you know, we believe in free speech now over...
01:57:08.000Over at Meta, yeah, President Trump's only going to be in the White House in 13 days.
01:58:18.000Sources who were there, who were in the vicinity of that dinner, told me that Zuckerberg was constantly repeating, I swear to God, I'm not a Democrat.
01:58:55.000I want to talk about something important today, because it's time to get back to our roots around free expression on Facebook and Instagram.
01:59:03.000I started building social media to give people a voice.
01:59:06.000I gave a speech at Georgetown five years ago about the importance of protecting free expression, and I still believe this today.
01:59:12.000But a lot has happened over the last several years.
01:59:15.000There's been widespread debate about potential harms from online content.
01:59:20.000Governments and legacy media have pushed to censor more and more.
01:59:23.000A lot of this is clearly political, but there's also a lot of legitimately bad stuff out there.
02:00:03.000You know, I let Hamas and I let ISIS have auto-generated accounts on my platform, but, you know, Laura Loomer is just such a dangerous terrorist, so we have to ban her?
02:00:16.000If you go to Google and you type in Laura Loomer, dangerous individual, Facebook, and I sent my producer the article for this earlier, type it in, Zuckerberg, Loomer, dangerous individual.
02:00:30.000Go to Google and type it in and you'll find it.
02:00:33.000You could do this right now, okay, as you're looking and watching the show.
02:00:56.000And then they tried to say that dangerousness is in the eye of the beholder.
02:01:01.000So while Ms. Loomer may not believe she's dangerous or has promoted hate, others disagree, as demonstrated by her admission that online platforms have widely banned her.
02:02:19.000But the problem with complex systems is they make mistakes.
02:02:22.000Even if they accidentally censor just 1% of posts, that's millions of people.
02:02:28.000And we've reached a point where it's just too many mistakes and too much censorship.
02:02:32.000The recent elections also feel like a cultural tipping point towards once again prioritizing speech.
02:02:38.000So we're going to get back to our roots and focus on reducing mistakes Simplifying our policies and restoring free expression on our platforms.
02:02:47.000More specifically, here's what we're going to do.
02:02:50.000First, we're going to get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with community notes similar to X starting in the U.S. After Trump first got elected in 2016, the legacy media wrote non-stop about how misinformation was a threat to democracy.
02:03:05.000We tried in good faith to address those concerns without becoming the arbiters of truth.
02:03:11.000But the fact-checkers have just been too politically biased and have destroyed more trust than they've created, especially in the US. So over the next couple of months, we're going to phase in a more comprehensive community notes system.
02:03:24.000Second, we're going to simplify our content policies and get rid of a bunch of restrictions on topics like immigration and gender that are just out of touch with mainstream discourse.
02:03:34.000What started as a movement to be more inclusive Third, we're changing how we enforce our policies to reduce the mistakes that account for the vast majority of censorship on our platforms.
02:03:58.000We used to have filters that scanned for any policy violation.
02:04:02.000Now we're going to focus those filters on tackling illegal and high severity violations.
02:04:07.000And for lower severity violations, we're going to rely on someone reporting an issue before we take action.
02:04:13.000The problem is that the filters make mistakes, and they take down a lot of content that they shouldn't.
02:04:18.000So by dialing them back, we're going to dramatically reduce the amount of censorship on our platforms.
02:04:24.000We're also going to tune our content filters to require much higher confidence before taking down content.
02:04:31.000The reality is that this is a trade-off.
02:04:33.000It means we're going to catch less bad stuff.
02:04:36.000But we'll also reduce the number of innocent people's posts and accounts that we accidentally take down.
02:04:42.000Fourth, we're bringing back civic content.
02:04:45.000For a while, the community asked to see less politics because it was making people stressed.
02:04:49.000So we stopped recommending these posts.
02:04:52.000But it feels like we're in a new era now, and we're starting to get feedback that people want to see this content again.
02:04:58.000So we're going to start phasing this back into Facebook, Instagram, and threads, while working to keep the communities friendly and positive.
02:05:06.000Fifth, we're going to move our trust and safety and content moderation teams out of California, and our US-based content review is going to be based in Texas.
02:05:15.000As we work to promote free expression, I think that it will help us build trust to do this work in places where there is less concern about the bias of our teams.
02:05:25.000Finally, we're going to work with President Trump to push back on governments around the world that are going after American companies and pushing to censor more.
02:05:35.000The US has the strongest constitutional protections for free expression in the world.
02:05:39.000Europe has an ever-increasing number of laws institutionalizing censorship and making it difficult to build anything innovative there.
02:05:47.000Latin American countries have secret courts that can order companies to quietly take things down.
02:05:53.000China has censored our apps from even working in the country.
02:05:57.000The only way that we can push back on this global trend is with the support of the US government.
02:06:03.000And that's why it's been so difficult over the past four years when even the U.S. government has pushed for censorship.
02:06:09.000By going after us and other American companies, it has emboldened other governments to go even further.
02:06:15.000But now we have the opportunity to restore free expression, and I am excited to take it.
02:06:21.000It'll take time to get this right, and these are complex systems.
02:06:27.000There's also a lot of illegal stuff that we still need to work very hard to remove.
02:06:31.000But the bottom line is that after years of having our content moderation work focus primarily on removing content, it is time to focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our systems, and getting back to our roots about giving people voice.
02:06:46.000I'm looking forward to this next chapter.
02:06:48.000Stay good out there, and more to come soon.
02:06:55.000I'm just gonna show you a few examples of you know what uh Mark Zuckerberg did to me so that you can see how ridiculous his statement was today and how Out of touch with, you know, reality he is.
02:07:07.000So, look, I mean, you don't just get to show up after Trump wins the election after you, like, fucking spent $450 million trying to steal the election from him and deplatforming him and then be like, oh, yeah, so, you know, well, we're just gonna, like, move from California to Texas and pretend like we're doing a favor to all of you when in reality, you know, we just don't want to get...
02:07:31.000Stabbed by a bunch of junkies when we're going to work and it's probably, you know, like too expensive in security costs for us to have to pay to stay in San Francisco anyway.
02:07:40.000Like I love how these guys support all these toxic policies that, you know, result in a bunch of illegal aliens and homeless junkies like shitting their brains out while they're like injecting fentanyl into their veins and like spazzing out like a bunch of junkie weirdos.
02:07:55.000Yeah, you're doing such a favor to all of us by moving to Texas.
02:07:59.000Yeah, I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that you destroyed places like San Francisco and L.A. with the hundreds of millions of dollars that you and your crazy wife have spent on progressive leftist policies.
02:08:14.000Yeah, I'm sure that has nothing to do with the reason why you've decided to move to a red state like Texas.
02:08:43.000And I'm going to play a clip from Tucker Carlson so you can see, or Waters World, actually, so that you can see firsthand how this happened.
02:08:50.000Facebook labeled me as a dangerous individual while they allowed for groups like ISIS and Hamas to still have access to social media.
02:08:57.000And then they updated their dangerous individual policy to say that it was okay for users to incite what they call high-severity lethal violence.
02:09:05.000So they said that it was okay, essentially, for people to murder me.
02:09:10.000Okay, so Zuckerberg wants us to forgive him.
02:09:13.000Am I going to get an apology for him saying that it was okay for people to murder me?
02:09:23.000I really, really wish that I was making this up.
02:09:27.000Let's scroll down so we can show people the evidence.
02:09:30.000Because they'll never talk about this.
02:09:32.000The media hates me so much and they talk about me in such a vitriolic manner that, you know, they actually would be probably so happy if somebody showed up and shot me in the head.
02:09:43.000You know, like when I travel with President Trump on the plane and they act like, you know, I'm a fucking demon or that I'm a member of the KKK because, oh wow, Laura Loomer talked to Trump about migrants eating people's pets.
02:10:08.000Wow, you know, Laura's so angry all the time.
02:10:10.000She's so upset and, you know, she needs anger management or, oh, you know, she's just so on edge all the time or, well, you know what?
02:10:18.000You would be on edge too if the most powerful fucking people in the world, the billionaires, were putting a target on your back and saying that it's okay for people to murder you, okay?
02:10:37.000I actually have a hard time reading this because it actually triggers me.
02:10:43.000Like, I went to a therapist one time and they told me that they thought I had PTSD because of...
02:10:49.000Because of the shit that Mark Zuckerberg has done to me.
02:10:52.000I swear to God, I wrote about it in my book.
02:10:55.000The therapist said that they actually put a blood pressure monitor up and they were monitoring my blood pressure because I went in for one of those stress tests one time and they were monitoring my blood pressure as I was talking about these situations with big tech and what it does to me and how it makes me feel.
02:11:13.000And they literally said that they thought I had some form of PTSD. They said, you have PTSD. And it's in my book.
02:11:20.000So I'm really being truthful and honest about this.
02:11:24.000I don't like talking about stuff like that, but they have actually given me PTSD with the way that they have abused me and treated me for the last few years.
02:11:32.000So, like, putting a target on my back, getting death threats from people, having, you know, Islamic fatwas issued against me while they're trying to gaslight me into thinking that I'm, like, less worthy than, you know, ISIS or Hamas of having access to social media.
02:11:48.000That will like really fuck you up in your head.
02:11:50.000So the tech giants recently updated a policy on violence and incitement.
02:11:54.000States that death threats and incitement to violence are banned across the platform unless your threat is aimed at someone that the social network has labeled an acceptable target.
02:12:16.000They say don't post unless the target is an organization or individual who is covered in the dangerous individuals and organizations policies.
02:12:34.000They actually said that it was okay for people to murder me.
02:12:38.000It's right there in front of your eyes.
02:12:40.000The media never ever talks about this because, and I sued over this, and then, you know, Facebook just tried to gaslight the black judge who got assigned to my case by saying, oh, you know, she's a white supremacist.
02:12:51.000And their lawyers would constantly say white supremacists over and over and over again as a way to try to, like, gaslight this black judge into thinking that I, you know, was actually dangerous when, you know, I'm Jewish and I'm not a white supremacist.
02:13:04.000So they actually say, right, let's read it again.
02:13:07.000Do not post threats that could lead to death or any type of, you know, high-severity violence unless, okay, the Target is an organization or individual covered in the dangerous individuals or organizations policy.
02:13:20.000And they labeled me a dangerous individual.
02:13:22.000Go to Google and type in Laura Leamer dangerous individual.
02:13:36.000Because then people are going to see why I have such a gripe with Mark Zuckerberg.
02:13:40.000I mean, if somebody said it was okay for people to murder you and they controlled all of, you know, the social media companies, you'd probably be pissed off too.
02:13:50.000Click on that BBC article right there.
02:13:56.000Facebook is banning several prominent figures it regards as dangerous individuals.
02:14:03.000The band group also includes Paul Nealon, a white supremacist, and Laura Loomer, an anti-Islamic activist with a large social media presence.
02:14:11.000So they say I'm anti-Islamic, and then they say it's okay for people to murder me.
02:14:16.000Do you have any idea how many death threats I got from Islamic terrorists after this?
02:14:21.000I got contacted by the FBI after this happened because they told me that individuals in the Muslim Brotherhood had been in online chat groups talking about how they wanted to decapitate me.
02:14:42.000We're just going to get rid of our fact checkers and everything's going to be okay.
02:14:47.000What about the fact that you said it was okay for people to murder me?
02:14:51.000What about the fact that you blacklisted my campaign and you basically subjected me to the craziest death threats from the most violent Islamic radicals on this planet?
02:15:06.000Take it from former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, Jesse Waters, and Dinesh D'Souza, who were talking about this on Fox News in 2019. Go ahead and play the clip.
02:15:26.000They're banning this guy Milo Yiannopoulos.
02:15:29.000They're banning Alex Jones, Laura Loomer.
02:15:34.000You know, in my opinion, there should be more freedom, not less freedom.
02:15:39.000I understand, you know, you don't want people, Dinesh, inciting violence, and you've got to draw the line at that.
02:15:46.000You don't want that, obviously, but if you're just being a provocateur, if you have the freedom of speech in this country to be an idiot or just to be, you know, crazy or whatever these people are...
02:16:01.000I mean, in 10 years, in 20 years, is Facebook going to say, you know, I don't like this guy either, get him off the platform?
02:16:08.000I think the scary thing is that the people that they're shutting down are not doing that.
02:16:13.000I mean, Laura Luma is trying to expose things and she fights against Islamic influence, but this doesn't necessarily, she's not calling for any kind of incitement of violence.
02:16:25.000The fellow Paul Joseph Watson on Prison Planet, he's not doing it either.
02:16:29.000So I think that this is a very scary thing.
02:16:32.000Essentially, Facebook is just targeting conservatives on the right.
02:16:50.000Look, Jesse, if Facebook is going to ban people and individuals and organizations, they should start with the New York Times for their anti-Semitic views against this president.
02:16:58.000Look, I mean, that's what they should do.
02:17:00.000Let's just be truthful about this, right?
02:17:01.000It's okay when you want to ban conservatives on the right because you don't like their politics, but when you're an anti-Semitic organization like the New York Times, you're not going to get banned, right?
02:17:11.000When you want to go and perpetuate these false narratives that the Trump campaign wasn't spied on on the front page of your paper, For years, right?
02:17:19.000And say that this was all just a farce.
02:17:21.000There's no banning of those failing institutions.
02:17:23.000Look, if they want to ban people for lying, they should ban the New York Times, the Washington Post, and a number of these so-called mainstream publications who have no facts whatsoever, who make up stories, who clearly have shown their bias against conservatives and are anti-Semitic.
02:17:37.000Why don't we start with those individuals and organizations if they really want to ban people?
02:17:42.000Yeah, I mean, I'm not here to defend all the things that these people that have been banned have done.
02:18:03.000I think the issue, Jesse, is that we tend to constantly focus on the so-called double standards of these institutions, but there's no double standard.
02:18:12.000The truth of it is they are on one side of the aisle.
02:18:14.000They're not looking to ban people on the left.
02:19:08.000Are you going to sit there and talk about how you're going to...
02:19:13.000Uncensor people, and you're going to fight for free speech, and then, you know, you're just going to hire a bunch of GOP consultants that don't know shit.
02:19:46.000They didn't allow my campaign to have access to social media.
02:19:49.000They blacklisted my campaign from having ads after Zuckerberg lied.
02:19:55.000I mean, like, how do you go and work for Meta and then you all of a sudden say, oh, you know, I don't really know anything about your case.
02:20:02.000And these are the people that are being tapped to, like, deal with censorship.
02:20:05.000I mean, shouldn't you have some knowledge of what's going on?
02:20:09.000And then, of course, I send them the links and everything, and I didn't hear back today.
02:20:56.000Loomer pushes Meta to put her on the advisory board to prove it's serious about ending censorship.
02:21:03.000Hours earlier, Meta announced that it plans to ditch fact-checkers as part of an effort toward restoring freedom of expression.
02:21:10.000Because I asked the simple question, how many people who are now working for Meta on their advisory board have ever experienced what it's like to be sentenced or silenced and deplatformed or debanked?
02:21:24.000Because they say that we're not the best and the brightest, right?
02:21:27.000They say, for example, the excuse they need for H-1B visa workers is because we're not the best and the brightest and they need people who are better at doing these technological things, right?
02:21:36.000So by that same argument from the tech bros, wouldn't you want somebody who has actually experienced what it's like to be censored and actually knows?
02:21:49.000I don't know, like, what it's like to be targeted by a social media company if they're going to supposedly, like, be your conservative liaison.
02:21:57.000I mean, wouldn't you want to have somebody like me that's actually a trusted voice in MAGA? So, of course, I did this intentionally today knowing that they, you know, well, they're never going to get back to me.
02:22:15.000Trump ally Laura Loomer suggested, and that's right, that's right, Trump ally, because you're never going to take that from me.
02:22:20.000You can ban me, you can silence me, you can do whatever the hell you want to do to me, but you're never going to take away the fact that I have always been there for Donald Trump and I have always supported Donald Trump.
02:22:31.000You're never going to take it from me no matter how much you want to lie about me and smear me.
02:22:38.000Trump ally Laura Loomer suggested Meta should put her on its advisory board hours after the social media giant CEO announced it was scrapping fact-checkers.
02:22:47.000Meta plans to ditch its fact-checkers and start using community notes similar to X's system, Zuckerberg announced in a video on Tuesday morning, citing the recent election, politically biased fact-checkers, and too much censorship.
02:24:21.000But you don't really see him criticizing these people much anymore.
02:24:25.000If Meta is serious about ending censorship and restoring good faith with MAGA, then they should put me on their advisory board, she wrote in a post on X. Scroll down.
02:24:36.000Lisa used a nice picture of me this time.
02:24:39.000She argued she was the perfect person for the job, given her turbulent history with social media platforms.
02:25:31.000Wonder why it was dismissed, you know, when they bankrupt you and they make it so you have no money and then they have unlimited funds for resources and unlimited amounts of money to threaten you with counter lawsuits.
02:27:34.000They say, I said 9-11 was an inside job.
02:27:36.000Again, I have an entire chapter in my book about how 9-11 was, you know, an Islamic terrorist attack in this book, but nobody wants to read my book.
02:27:44.000Nobody wants to talk about what actually happened, right?
02:27:48.000Yeah, here's an entire book about my congressional campaign and what happened when I made history running for Congress, being attacked by every goddamn social media company.
02:28:04.000If Meta is serious about changing, then they should prove it by calling me and restoring my accounts and they should make me a member of their advisory board, Loomer added.
02:28:16.000In Zuckerberg's announcement, he said the changes are partly inspired by a changing cultural climate, referring to Donald Trump's win.
02:28:24.000In other words, oh, Donald Trump, please don't throw me in prison.
02:28:28.000I know, I spent $450 million stealing the election, and, you know, I spent $400 million funneling money into drop boxes under the disguise of saving people from COVID, but please don't throw me and my wife in prison.
02:28:40.000Please don't throw me and my wife in prison.
02:28:44.000He's just covering his ass, that's all.
02:29:19.000What does Dana White know about having his livelihood and his, you know, complete business, his businesses completely destroyed by big tech social media censorship?
02:29:32.000I think he's a fabulous supporter and friend to Donald Trump.
02:29:35.000I have nothing bad to say about Dana White.
02:29:39.000How is Dana White going to really, aside from being, you know, like a conservative cultural icon and, you know, somebody who provides bona fides so that Mark Zuckerberg can maybe like go to a UFC fight with Trump and Dana White and be like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, rah, rah, rah, like Musk did.
02:29:55.000What else, what kind of qualifications does Dana White have as it relates to somebody who has been subjected to deplatforming or censorship?
02:30:03.000Again, this is not an attack on Dana White.
02:30:05.000I'm just trying to put this into perspective for people because, again, you're going to want experts.
02:30:10.000You're going to want somebody who's going to say, hey, I'm MAGA. This is how they're going to react to it.
02:30:14.000Let me tell you how people react when you say the word hate speech.
02:30:17.000Let me tell you how it felt when I was running for Congress.
02:30:20.000Let me tell you what my experience was so that you can reverse course as somebody who has been deeply aggrieved by Meta.
02:30:29.000The ritzy, highfalutin GOP consultants who worked for establishment Republican politicians who, you know, never said anything remotely controversial are not going to be able to speak for MAGA. So, I don't think that my request is unrealistic, personally.
02:31:08.000But speaking of advisory boards and free speech, BitChute has decided to welcome me to their advisory board and I have joined the BitChute advisory board.
02:31:18.000So I'm very excited to tell you all about BitChute.
02:31:22.000Let's open this up and you can see here the press release.
02:31:26.000BitChute is a pro-free speech, free speech absolutist video site.
02:31:32.000And here's the press release they released yesterday on January 6th, which, you know.
02:31:37.000Ironically, it's the same day, well, January 8th or so, so this is being announced around the same time that Parler was completely deplatformed in the aftermath of the protest.
02:31:47.000So Big Shoot, the authentic free speech platform, free from constraints of big tech influence, proudly announces that Laura Leamer, renowned activist and unapologetic advocate for free speech, has joined its advisory board.
02:32:01.000In an era where many platforms manipulate timelines, throttle dissenting voices, and engage in shadow banning, BitChute remains a bastion for unfiltered organic content.
02:32:09.000Unlike other platforms, BitChute does not answer to Google, Apple, or AWS. There are no algorithms shaping narratives, no synthetic content manufacturing, and no suppression of speech.
02:32:20.000At Bitshoot, we believe the suppression of ideas is not only hateful, but also a profound threat to governance rooted in freedom, liberty, and the sovereignty of individuals.
02:32:32.000Well, Laura Loomer's fearless advocacy for free speech makes her an invaluable addition to her advisory board, said Ray Vahy, founder of Bitshoot.
02:32:39.000In today's climate where many voices are silenced or marginalized, her commitment to defending the rights of individuals to express their opinions resonates deeply with our mission at Bitchute.
02:32:49.000Few figures embody the fight for free speech like Laura Loomer.
02:32:52.000Demonized, dehumanized, and demonetized, Loomer has weathered countless challenges while remaining steadfast in her convictions.
02:32:59.000Known for her courage, authenticity, and unwavering stance on controversial issues, Loomer is a fighter and survivor who stands unapologetically for what she believes in.
02:33:09.000Her passion and relevance make her a force to be reckoned with in the ongoing battle for free Quote.
02:33:15.000I am thrilled to be joining the advisory board of Bitchu, a true free speech platform that is not beholden to the billionaire technocrat class that seeks to oppress and demonetize voices that they do not agree with, said Laura Loomer.
02:33:27.000As a free speech absolutist, I view technocracy and centralized control in the hands of a select few big tech billionaires to be the greatest threat to our country, our national security, free speech, and humanity as a whole.
02:33:40.000All of us, despite our political differences, must be united in our shared desire to enact free speech absolutism in America and all around the world.
02:33:49.000BitChute supports those values, and I am eager to help them accomplish their goals and promote free speech absolutism.
02:33:56.000BitChute is honored to welcome Laura to its advisory board.
02:33:59.000Her dedication to free speech and her commitment to holding powerful entities accountable align perfectly with BitChute's mission to preserve the integrity of open dialogue and ensure that no voice is unfairly silenced.
02:34:11.000So, see, Bitchute is putting their money where their mouth is, okay?
02:34:15.000So, you know, if you truly want somebody who understands what it means to be a free speech absolutist, then, you know, put me on your advisory board.
02:34:26.000I say Meta's full of shit until I get a phone call from Zuckerberg apologizing to me and, you know, maybe offering to settle my Rico case and...
02:34:34.000Trying to square up with me so that we can resolve this issue.
02:34:50.000The people over at BitChute have asked me to be on their advisory board.
02:34:55.000And again, you know, I'm not exclusively using any of these platforms.
02:34:58.000So I use Rumble and, you know, I'm using BitChute as well.
02:35:01.000But I am committed to supporting any free speech platform that supports free speech, okay?
02:35:07.000Because I think that it's important to support businesses and companies that truly do believe in free speech.
02:35:12.000So I like Chris Pavlosky over at Rumble.
02:35:17.000And I also, you know, I'm a supporter of the guys at BitChute.
02:35:21.000And I'm proud now to be on the advisory board of BitChute.
02:35:24.000Because I'm committed to making sure that everybody will always have a voice and a place to share their opinions and their speech, regardless of how, you know, hateful, racist, bigoted, I don't give a shit what word you want to say to describe it.
02:35:40.000Everybody has a right to free speech unless you're, you know, engaged in child porn or, you know, promoting terrorism or inciting violence.
02:35:48.000So that's where the line is drawn, of course.
02:35:51.000So be sure that you check out Bitchute.
02:36:33.000And I'm really looking forward to working with the Bitshoot community to help promote free speech absolutism, not just free speech.
02:36:41.000Free speech absolutism, because as Bosch was on earlier explaining, a lot of people say that they're for free speech, but they're really not at the end of the day.
02:36:47.000They're really not a free speech absolutist.
02:36:56.000These other guys, like look, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, they got some work to do, especially after this last week.
02:37:02.000I'm grateful that Elon Musk has restored my account, and I'm grateful for him supporting President Trump, but I'm very disappointed after what I saw this week.
02:37:14.000Want to take a moment to remind you all to support the sponsor of tonight's episode of Loomer Unleash, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals.
02:37:23.000Again, you got to check out KEPM.com slash Loomer, KEPM.com slash Loomer.
02:37:28.000Don't let the green agenda tick you off and put you into a tailspin when you could just take advantage of it.
02:37:35.000There's one commodity that is needed for solar power, battery power for electric vehicles, nuclear power, and it's a vital component in missiles, torpedoes, and aerospace.
02:37:45.000Silver is needed for all of that, and recent developments are creating an insurmountable problem for all of these industries.
02:37:52.000So physical silver is running out, and when it runs out, these manufacturers will pay almost any price and simply pass it on to you, the consumer or taxpayer.

02:39:37.000We're going to take a few questions, so put your questions in the chat.
02:39:41.000But before that, as you know, I made a documentary called The Great Replacement, and before the election, I released the five episodes of the docuseries.
02:39:51.000But now I'm proud to announce that coming on January 13th, so just seven days, okay, just seven days before Inauguration Day and the day one mass deportation campaign.
02:40:09.000I'm going to be releasing the full documentary.
02:40:11.000It's all five episodes fused together.
02:40:12.000So I have the official trailer that I wanted to play for all of you.
02:40:51.000Nearly 180,000 illegal immigrants with criminal records are tonight roaming free to threaten peaceful citizens.
02:41:09.000The number of new illegal immigrant families who have crossed the border so far this year, they are being released by the tens of they are being released by the tens of thousands into our communities with no regard for the impact Get back.
02:43:14.000And if you would like to support my work on a monthly basis, you can join my Locals community, loomer.locals.com, by clicking the Get Loomered button.
02:43:24.000And that's where you can support my work for $7 a month or $70 a year so that I can keep...
02:44:03.000But seems like your subscription is probably a lot safer over here on Locals.
02:44:08.000So if you canceled your subscription on X and you were subscribed to me on X and you want to just subscribe to me on Locals, you can do that here.
02:44:17.000Because I've been guaranteed by the staff over at Rumble that you get to keep your subscriptions and that they can never actually be physically taken away from you.
02:44:26.000So that actually makes me feel pretty comfortable and confident as opposed to what just happened to me this last week.
02:45:34.000I need to boost my X social credit score so I guess I gotta post some positive content of my doggies.
02:45:40.000But maybe my social credit score will be docked because I rescued my one dog Mecca from a Chinese meat market in China.
02:45:47.000So do you think that my Chinese social credit score on X is going to be doxxed if I post a photo of my dog that I rescued from a CCP meat market?
02:46:51.000Your content is going to be de-boosted in the algorithm if you're negative.
02:46:55.000So you can only be positive and say nice things about Elon.
02:46:58.000I mean, you could say other things too, but they made it sound like the best way to Boost content in the algorithm now is by being positive.
02:47:08.000So they rolled this out, of course, the same week that everybody was arguing over H-1B visas.
02:48:19.000Someone said, what is a social credit score?
02:48:23.000It's what they have in China that is now properly making its way to X. The system where you get docked points.
02:48:34.000Depending on how well you comply with the CCP. And if you're a good faithful citizen to the CCP or if you criticize them, they can actually take away your bank account.
02:48:44.000They can take away your ability to travel.
02:48:46.000and it makes it really concerning, especially since, you know, Elon's talking about the X app being the everything app, potentially speaking.
02:49:16.000I don't know if Elon is trying to turn it into WeChat.
02:49:18.000I would say that what he's doing, it kind of looks like Elon is trying to make X into the WeChat of the West.
02:49:24.000That's why I'm personally a bit concerned over what I'm seeing.
02:49:30.000I would say, in my opinion, based off of what I have seen, I personally think that Elon Musk is trying to turn X into the WeChat of the West.
02:50:08.000I'm looking forward to President Trump pardoning J6ers.
02:50:11.000Yesterday, of course, was the anniversary.
02:50:13.000I can't believe it's been four years since J6. But we're going to have some pardoned J6ers on in the future, hopefully, when President Trump pardons these people.
02:51:00.000So in the meantime, I've just been encouraging people to subscribe to me on Locals because as it currently stands, I'm demonetized on Twitter.
02:51:10.000Not that I really did anything to deserve getting demonetized, but hey, speaking truth comes with a price.
02:51:17.000I really appreciate those of you who just gifted subscriptions.
02:51:23.000And if you want to subscribe again, you go to rumble.com slash Laura Loomer and you click the Get Loomered button and you're able to click on that button and it will take you to my locals page.
02:51:51.000Becca said, so Elon is saying that positive posts are good for the community on X. Isn't this equal to CDC saying that taking the shot is good for humanity?
02:52:01.000Yeah, basically the same exact thing, so I'm not going to argue with that.
02:52:07.000Somebody said, Trump is walking a fine line.
02:52:11.000I love President Trump and I support him, but I really do believe that a lot of these big tech executives are going to prove to be a massive liability to him.
02:52:19.000So I'm just getting it all out on the record so that when it does happen and there is an implosion, I'm just going to be sitting here like, I told you so.
02:52:27.000So people can be mad at me all they want.
02:54:27.000And when I get shut down on a platform and it takes away my revenue, well, it impacts my ability to do my journalism and my reports.
02:54:34.000So if you would like me to remain uncancellable, uncensored, unfiltered, unleashed here on Loomer Unleashed, well, please go to loomer.locals.com, subscribe, send a super chat.
02:54:46.000And help support independent journalism.
02:54:49.000With that, I will see you all this Thursday, 8.30 p.m.
02:54:53.000Eastern, live for another episode of Loomer Unleashed.
