Rebel News Podcast - Donald Trump's greatest legacy： The U.S. Supreme Court

00:00:00.000 Hello, my rebels. Today, I take you through an outstanding Supreme Court ruling.

00:00:04.900 You know, those American rulings are great. Canadian rulings sometimes are hundreds of

00:00:08.540 pages long. Sometimes they are. And they're so contradictory and so hard to understand.

00:00:13.880 This Supreme Court of the United States ruling I'm going to take you through this week is concise,

00:00:19.020 written beautifully, and I know they have bright clerks helping, but it's great.

00:00:22.960 And it's very exciting to see the three Trump judges weigh in and change the direction of

00:00:31.020 America for the better. I'm going to take you through a very important court ruling

00:00:35.600 that just came out this week. Before I do, let me invite you to become a Rebel News Plus subscriber.

00:01:06.280 You're listening to a Rebel News Podcast.

00:01:08.460 Tonight, do you want to see Donald Trump's greatest legacy? We'll take a look at this

00:01:20.940 ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court. It's November 27th. This is the Ezra LeVance Show.

00:01:27.920 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:01:31.360 There's 8,500 customers here and you won't give them an answer. The only thing I have to say to

00:01:37.080 the government about why I'm publishing it is because it's my bloody right to do so.

00:01:46.420 There's a chance Donald Trump could still win the election. I don't care what CNN says or the CBC

00:01:52.220 says or what Joe Biden says or what Justin Trudeau says. That's not how the president has actually

00:01:57.380 chosen. The United States Constitution describes how the president is chosen. It's something called

00:02:02.880 the Electoral College. And right now, there are lawsuits in various jurisdictions challenging some

00:02:09.560 close votes in different states. That's nothing new, frankly, nothing weird there. Back in 2000,

00:02:16.400 Al Gore fought in court for more than a month until the Supreme Court finally weighed in against him.

00:02:22.320 So I say there's still a chance Donald Trump will win. Here's some proof.

00:02:27.380 All the betting houses, all the gambling companies that allow people to bet on political

00:02:32.720 outcomes, they're not paying out yet. They're waiting until it's official, official, official.

00:02:39.220 I mean, could you imagine if they paid out now for Joe Biden only to have Donald Trump

00:02:43.480 win an election recount? CNN doesn't care if they're wrong. They're in the propaganda business,

00:02:49.440 not the paying out money business. But let's, for the sake of argument, say

00:02:53.780 that Donald Trump will not prevail and that Joe Biden will be inaugurated in January and that he

00:03:00.640 will be a sort of figurehead president, making a brief 10-minute appearance every day,

00:03:06.260 speaking less and less as his cognitive abilities continue to recede, becoming more and more of a

00:03:12.000 recluse as Kamala Harris becomes the face of the Democrat White House and probably someone else who 1.00

00:03:18.520 knows who behind the scenes actually makes the decisions. Let's say that's what's going to

00:03:22.980 happen. And then I ask again, what will be Donald Trump's greatest legacy? He changed the Republican

00:03:30.000 Party for the better, I think. He made it more populist. He made it the party of the working

00:03:33.880 class, a nationalist party. He called out China. He called out America's allies who weren't paying

00:03:39.700 their fair share in NATO. He brokered seemingly impossible peace deals in the Middle East,

00:03:44.180 three in a row, but you wouldn't know it from the total lack of media coverage of it. He brought

00:03:49.140 the economy roaring back. And after the pandemic hit, he brought it roaring back again. It's still

00:03:56.180 not where it was before the pandemic, but the unemployment rate is back down to 6.8% and getting

00:04:02.160 stronger every month. Here in Canada, by contrast, it's 8.9%. And look at this headline from Statistics

00:04:08.920 Canada. Employment growth slows as new COVID-19 restrictions are implemented. We're still doing

00:04:17.600 that? Yeah, you bet. So it's not the virus anymore. It's the lockdown now. And in case you think you can

00:04:23.380 just go to work at a company you built with your own hands for decades, Canada's worst politicians will

00:04:29.400 literally send 100 police and riot horses to stop you. I think Trump's greatest failure was his failure

00:04:36.240 to build the wall with Mexico. Sure, he built part of it, but not much. And sure, Congress got in his

00:04:41.760 way, but he had a majority Republican Congress for his first two years. And many decisions can be made

00:04:47.120 unilaterally by the White House. He was undermined by the swamp within his own party, within his own

00:04:54.220 White House, by Republicans in name only. I think most of his work was undermined. I don't think that's a

00:05:00.960 controversial thing to say. I'm worried that some of Trump's achievements will be easily undone. I think

00:05:06.200 foreign affairs is an obvious example. Biden loves China. Biden loves Iran. He'll change both of those

00:05:12.960 policies immediately. And it's terrifying to see John Kerry back in charge of anything again. Remember

00:05:18.700 this guy? There will be no separate peace between Israel and the Arab world. I want to make that very 0.99

00:05:26.220 clear to all of you. I've heard several prominent politicians in Israel sometimes saying, well, the

00:05:34.220 Arab world's in a different place now. We just have to reach out to them and we can work some things 1.00

00:05:38.600 with the Arab world and we'll deal with the Palestinians. No, no, no, and no. I can tell you 1.00

00:05:46.300 that reaffirmed even in the last week as I have talked to leaders of the Arab community. There will be

00:05:51.580 no advance and separate peace with the Arab world without the Palestinian process and Palestinian

00:05:58.480 peace. Everybody needs to understand that. That is a hard reality. Yeah, I don't think there's ever

00:06:05.520 been anything he's been right about. He's been wrong more than possibly anyone else in history. I think

00:06:11.960 he will actually try to wreck Trump's new peace deals between Israel and Bahrain and the United Arab

00:06:18.680 Emirates in Sudan. I actually believe John Kerry would rather wreck those peace deals than let them

00:06:24.160 happen. But the one Trump legacy that cannot be easily undone, at least if the Republicans could

00:06:30.800 hold the Senate to stop court packing, the one thing that Trump exceeded expectations on, that Trump

00:06:37.640 probably did better than any president before him, was appointing excellent judges. He nominated them

00:06:44.900 and Mitch McConnell, the quirky Republican leader in the Senate, agreed to push them through using all

00:06:50.300 means. And he did. I love this whiny headline, how Trump has already transformed America's courts. Let

00:06:58.620 me read this. Today, almost a third of all active federal judges on the U.S. appeals courts were appointed

00:07:04.560 by Mr. Trump. It's amazing. And of course, three on the Supreme Court. And these aren't just good

00:07:10.860 enough judges. They are the best possible. They're outstanding judges. Sometimes they're called strict

00:07:17.680 constructionists, which means it's a fancy way of saying judges who interpret the law as the laws

00:07:22.940 were written. People who follow the Constitution, not people who think that a judge's role is to be an

00:07:28.280 unelected lawmaker. Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and most recently, Amy Coney Barrett, or ACB as some

00:07:37.420 people of color, they were strong from the beginning. And of course, the abusive way that the Democrats

00:07:43.340 in the Senate attacked these three judges surely only hardened them. Remember the literally insane

00:07:49.100 accusations against Brett Kavanaugh, accusing him, seriously, of being like some serial rapist 0.79

00:07:55.700 or something? Remember that? All three of the women who have made sworn allegations against you

00:08:01.520 have called for an independent FBI investigation into the claims you've been asked during the course of

00:08:06.380 this hearing by four different members by my count at least eight times today. And also earlier this

00:08:14.260 week on national television, whether you would call for the White House to authorize an FBI investigation

00:08:20.000 each time you have declined to do so. Now, you know, I know you do, that the FBI is an agency of men

00:08:30.300 and women who are sworn and trained law enforcement, who in the course of conducting background 0.65

00:08:38.440 investigations on nominees for the Supreme Court of the United States and others, are charged with

00:08:45.220 conducting those background investigations because they are sworn law enforcement and they have the

00:08:50.360 expertise and the ability and the history of doing that. So I'm going to ask you one last time.

00:08:55.160 Are you willing to ask the White House to authorize the FBI to investigate the claims that have been

00:09:03.040 made against you? Well, I'll do whatever the committee wants, of course. And I've heard you say that,

00:09:07.040 but I've not heard you ask, I've not heard you answer a very specific question that's been asked,

00:09:11.620 which is, are you willing to ask the White House to conduct an investigation by the FBI to get to

00:09:21.160 whatever you believe is the bottom of the allegations that have been levied against you?

00:09:26.160 The FBI would gather witness statements. You have the witness statements.

00:09:31.040 I don't want to debate with you how they do their business.

00:09:34.540 They just made that craziness up. Just throw mud. Well, he's on the court now. Do you think he's going to be

00:09:42.480 harder or softer on leftists than he was before? Let's ask Clarence Thomas.

00:09:47.160 The committee will please come to order. Judge, it's a tough day and tough night for you, I know.

00:09:57.760 Let me ask, do you have anything you'd like to say before we begin? I understand that your

00:10:04.600 preference is, which is totally and completely understandable, that we go one hour tonight,

00:10:10.840 30 minutes on each side. Am I correct in that? That's right.

00:10:15.180 Senator, I would like to start by saying unequivocally, uncategorically, that I deny each and every

00:10:26.180 single allegation against me today that suggested in any way that I had conversations of a sexual

00:10:35.740 nature or about pornographic material with Anita Hill, that I ever attempted to date her, that I

00:10:45.340 ever had any personal sexual interest in her, or that I in any way ever harassed her.

00:10:53.740 A second, and I think more important point, I think that this today is a travesty. I think that it is

00:11:05.700 disgusting. I think that this hearing should never occur in America. This is a case in which this sleaze,

00:11:18.060 this dirt was searched for by staffers of members of this committee, was then leaked to the media,

00:11:30.060 and this committee, and this body, validated it, and displayed it at prime time. And from my standpoint,

00:11:44.780 as a black American, as far as I'm concerned, it is a high-tech lynching for uppity blacks, 1.00

00:11:50.860 who in any way deigned to think for themselves. 0.99

00:11:54.380 Oh, by the way, it was a racist bigot named Joe Biden who led the smear against Clarence Thomas.

00:12:00.460 Amy Coney Barrett isn't just a great judge. I think she's a great person. But still, this is how they did it to her.

00:12:08.120 To ensure the fitness of nominees for a lifetime appointment to the federal bench or to any of the

00:12:13.580 other positions for any of the committees on which they appear, I ask each nominee these two questions.

00:12:20.860 And I will ask them of you. Since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests

00:12:27.260 for sexual favors or committed any verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature?

00:12:33.020 No, Senator Hirono.

00:12:34.540 Have you ever faced discipline or entered into a settlement related to this kind of conduct?

00:12:40.140 No, Senator.

00:12:41.820 Yeah. These were good people. They were great judges. They were good people. And the Democrats tried to

00:12:47.100 destroy them. I don't think these judges will forget that. Now, John Roberts, the Republican in name

00:12:54.300 only, who was appointed by George W. Bush, he's undermined conservatives ever since he was appointed.

00:13:00.060 He cast the deciding vote saving Obamacare, the nationalization of American medicine. Trump's

00:13:06.460 three judges are not like him. And all of this is a preamble to the amazing ruling from the Supreme

00:13:13.740 Court of the United States just this week. It's called Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn,

00:13:19.660 New York versus Andrew M. Cuomo, Governor of New York. So as the name of the case shows,

00:13:25.020 the Catholic Church in New York sued the governor for shutting them down. A Jewish synagogue made the 1.00

00:13:30.380 same arguments. Both were heard at the same time in an emergency hearing of the court.

00:13:36.460 And in a five to four ruling with John Roberts joining the Democrats, the court struck down Cuomo's

00:13:43.660 restrictions. Three out of those five judges were Trump's judges. Imagine if Hillary Clinton had won in 0.99

00:13:50.140 2016. Imagine if Trump had made weaker appointments or didn't have the chance to make appointments at all.

00:13:56.780 It's not hard to imagine. Earlier in the pandemic, before ACB was on the court, churches in Nevada and

00:14:04.140 California sued in the same vein. And that was when leftist Ruth Bader Ginsburg was on the court,

00:14:09.740 and the court ruled against the churches. So in Nevada, casinos can stay open, no problem, but not churches.

00:14:19.020 That's the opposite. That's the difference Trump made.

00:14:21.020 Now there's no doubt at all that Andrew Cuomo targeted Jews and Catholics too, but he really

00:14:28.780 seemed to dislike the Jews. I think that's very odd for a New York governor.

00:14:33.260 I have to say to the Orthodox community tomorrow, if you're not willing to live with these rules, 0.99

00:14:40.700 then I'm going to close the synagogues. 1.00

00:14:43.500 It's funny, Trump restricted immigration from some Muslim majority countries,

00:14:47.420 and it was universally called a Muslim ban. Because to the media, Trump equals racist. 0.96

00:14:52.700 But I wonder why the media didn't call Cuomo's rules the Jewish ban. That's sort of what it was. 0.99

00:14:57.980 Here, let me read a few paragraphs from this week's great ruling. Let me read a few lines from Neil

00:15:02.940 Gorsuch, Trump's first pick. I'm going to read from the judgment.

00:15:07.100 In the Orthodox Jewish community, that limit might operate to exclude all women, considering 10 men are

00:15:28.220 necessary to establish a union or a quorum. In orange zones, it's not much different. Churches and

00:15:34.620 synagogues are limited to a maximum of 25 people. These restrictions apply even to the largest 1.00

00:15:40.060 cathedrals and synagogues, which ordinarily hold hundreds. And the restrictions apply no

00:15:45.500 matter the precautions taken, including social distancing, wearing masks, leaving doors and

00:15:50.140 windows open, foregoing singing, and disinfecting spaces between services. And now get this.

00:15:55.580 At the same time, the governor has chosen to impose no capacity restrictions on certain businesses he

00:16:01.180 considers essential. And it turns out the businesses the government considers essential include hardware

00:16:06.940 stores, acupuncturists, and liquor stores, bicycle repair shops, certain signage companies,

00:16:13.260 accountants, lawyers, and insurance agents are all essential too. So, at least according to the

00:16:17.820 governor, it may be unsafe to go to church, but it is always fine to pick up another bottle of wine,

00:16:23.180 shop for a new bike, or spend the afternoon exploring your distal points and meridians.

00:16:28.460 Who knew public health would so perfectly align with secular convenience? Isn't that great? That's

00:16:34.940 that's the Supreme Court today. And that's the point about casinos, right? I mean, in Nevada,

00:16:39.980 casinos are big business and the source of the big taxes. Everyone's pro-casino in Nevada.

00:16:45.740 They wouldn't shut those down. But churches? Ah, who cares? Shut them down.

00:16:49.020 Same in Canada. Churches, synagogues, mosques shut down. But Walmart keeps the doors open. No

00:16:54.940 restrictions there. Let me read some more. Nor is the problem an isolated one. In recent months,

00:17:00.060 certain other governors have issued similar edicts. At the flick of a pen, they have asserted the right

00:17:06.860 to privilege restaurants, marijuana dispensaries, and casinos over churches, mosques, and temples.

00:17:13.100 Exactly. Now let me quote the two hard left-wing Obama judges. I'll just quote one of them,

00:17:19.500 Justice Sotomayor, with whom Justice Kagan joins dissenting. She says,

00:17:25.260 Amidst a pandemic that has already claimed over a quarter million American lives, the court today

00:17:29.380 enjoins one of New York's public health measures aimed at containing the spread of COVID-19 in areas

00:17:34.240 facing the most severe outbreaks. Earlier this year, this is my favorite part, earlier this year,

00:17:39.260 this court twice stayed its hand when asked to issue similar extraordinary relief. See,

00:17:46.400 South Bay United Pentecostal Church versus Newsom, that's a governor of California,

00:17:50.880 and Calvary Chapel Dayton Valley versus Sisolak, that's a governor of Nevada. 0.98

00:17:56.400 I see no justification for the court's change of heart, and I fear that granting applications such

00:18:01.520 as the one filed by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn will only exacerbate

00:18:09.160 the nation's suffering. So let me translate. She's talking about the Nevada case and the

00:18:15.080 California case. Same arguments, but decided earlier this year with the majority of anti-religious

00:18:23.700 leftists. Ruth Bader Ginsburg cast the deciding vote then, but now it's Amy Coney Barrett.

00:18:32.180 Sotomayor is correct to ask, what changed? The answer is Trump. And Amy Coney Barrett is just

00:18:40.420 48 years old. May she live as long as Ruth Bader Ginsburg did. That is Trump's legacy. Here in

00:18:47.020 Canada, we've got even worse anti-church lockdown laws, like zero churches in Wellington County in

00:18:53.520 Ontario that just completely shut down the churches, 100%. And like Trump, Stephen Harper appointed an

00:18:59.860 enormous number of judges. Harper was around for nine years, not just four. Harper appointed many

00:19:06.860 of the judges on our Supreme Court right now, except for whatever reason, he just didn't really care

00:19:11.100 about their ideology. Maybe one of his Supreme Court appointments could be called a conservative.

00:19:16.380 Maybe it was Harper. Maybe he just didn't care. Maybe he delegated it to his lazy conservative

00:19:24.060 and name-only justice minister for so long, Peter McKay. Whatever it is, we've got a court full of

00:19:28.860 Ruth Bader Ginsburg's appointed by our side, which is why we're less free and will be for

00:19:36.320 a long time. Stay with us for a long time.

00:19:50.200 Welcome back. Well, I firmly believe that in a debate with such close margins, anything that

00:19:56.220 would filter the news of the election, even by a few percent, well, that made all the difference in

00:20:03.360 the world. And what do I mean by filter? I don't mean the particular biases of a particular newscaster

00:20:10.040 or a channel. I mean, the left has its ABC, NBC, CBS. The right has Fox News. I'm talking about your

00:20:18.200 ability to even find out the news, to see what other people are saying. I'm talking about invisible

00:20:25.040 filters on social media. Your ability to share your own views on Facebook or Twitter or YouTube.

00:20:34.460 How the rankings are when you type in keywords like Donald Trump or Joe Biden. Are there positive

00:20:41.700 stories at the top or negative stories at the top? Well, those things were controlled by the social

00:20:48.220 media tycoons. I believe they made a difference in this election. But the thing is, they haven't

00:20:53.460 stopped after the election. Well, it's just got worse. Joining us now via Skype is our friend Alan

00:20:59.320 Bokhari, senior tech editor for Breitbart.com. Alan, great to see you again. You know, we saw this

00:21:06.600 coming like a mile away. It was an accident in slow motion. The social media companies started

00:21:12.280 censoring a little bit months ago. There was no pushback like a child finding its boundaries.

00:21:18.200 They pushed more and more and more and nothing ever snapped back. Literally nothing has ever

00:21:24.180 happened to them. So, of course, they censor the president all the time. What do they care?

00:21:28.700 Yes, they've been doing this for four years, ever since they realized what internet freedom could do

00:21:33.500 to their control over the narrative. They saw that in 2016. And I think Silicon Valley collectively

00:21:39.620 took a decision to make sure nothing like it could happen again at the next election. I wrote a book

00:21:45.640 about this called, you know, Deleted Big Tech's Battle to Erase the Trump Movement and Steal the

00:21:50.400 Election. And I think they did steal the election, frankly, because as you said, those margins were so

00:21:55.220 close. And given that Silicon Valley has been manipulating people's opinions and suppressing the

00:22:00.460 conservative movement over the past four years, I'm sure that had an impact. And I think you can

00:22:05.360 actually see it in the polls. If you look at the polls, the undecided voters were much lower throughout

00:22:11.840 the course of the election year than they were in 2016. And I think one of the reasons for that is

00:22:19.000 because Silicon Valley has been bombarding undecided voters and everyone else on the internet with

00:22:25.220 propaganda for the past four years by adjusting its algorithms to promote what they call authoritative

00:22:31.860 sources like CNN and the New York Times and suppress what they call partisan sources like the Rebel News

00:22:37.780 and Breitbart News. And we got confirmation of this with this story about Facebook's post-election

00:22:44.260 suppression. Yeah. Well, let's talk about your two latest stories. One of them is called Facebook

00:22:49.880 suppressed Breitbart promoted CNN following the election. So this is the new normal. This is a perpetual

00:22:58.140 state of affairs. Even after the vote, you know, digesting the vote, analyzing the vote, writing history, so to

00:23:05.740 speak, Facebook won't allow conservative voices to explain what happened. That's what I'm picking up from your

00:23:12.520 story. That's absolutely right. What I found interesting about the story is that it actually confirmed something I

00:23:19.480 reported in my book, something a whistleblower told me, which is that every one of these Silicon Valley

00:23:24.540 companies has something called a quality score that they use to rank and downrank content. So the New York

00:23:31.400 Times story that we covered yesterday at Breitbart confirms from other sources inside Facebook that they

00:23:38.300 have something called a news ecosystem quality score, a completely hidden ranking that no one knew about

00:23:44.460 until now. Unless you've read my book, of course, that they can turn up or down like you're turning up or down

00:23:51.520 the volume on a TV. They can do that to news sources. And they have done that to news sources. They've done

00:23:56.980 that to Breitbart in the days following the election. And they've also turned up the volume on the mainstream

00:24:02.300 corporate media. They've boosted, they've artificially boosted CNN and the New York Times. So we're in this

00:24:08.460 situation now where by adjusting these hidden scores, big tech companies can pick winners and losers in the

00:24:16.480 media. They can decide which media companies are going to succeed and which ones are going to fail. And it's

00:24:22.640 incredible to me that nothing has been done to rein in this kind of power. The potential for the, well, we're seeing

00:24:29.900 now the monumental abuse of power this allows for is just completely outrageous.

00:24:35.440 Yeah, you know, we know this directly. We have a representative from YouTube, which is owned by

00:24:41.080 Google. And we ask her questions. I mean, the chief benefit of having a representative is we can put

00:24:46.680 questions to a real human who eventually answers us. It's not like we're just sending an anonymous email

00:24:52.760 to some, you know, unchecked email box. And she tells us quite frankly, like sometimes we type in the exact

00:25:01.520 name of a video, like the exact headline, and a video outranks us, comes up early on the search engine

00:25:09.700 by CBC, Canada's state broadcaster, or global, you know, a private sector media company that's very far

00:25:18.180 left. They rank higher in the search than our own video with the exact title and with many more views.

00:25:26.180 And we said, what's going on? And she said, we boost quality. That was one of the phrases, quality. I think

00:25:34.360 you were saying authoritative. So even if people want our video, even if grassroots people voting with

00:25:42.280 their finger clicking, choose our video, you've got to eat your vegetables, you've got to take your

00:25:48.700 medicine and listen to the CBC or global, even if you deliberately search for us. And we're not

00:25:55.000 running an election. Imagine how bad it was for Trump. You search for something about Trump. Let's

00:25:59.580 say you're searching for the Hunter Biden laptop, eat your vegetables, read the New York Times, nothing

00:26:04.540 to see here. I think that's what they're doing. I'll tell you exactly the same thing happened to

00:26:08.800 Breitbart News and is still happening to Breitbart News. You will search the consensus

00:26:12.260 exact string of characters on a Breitbart News headline. And what will come up often is results

00:26:18.180 from, you know, completely no name, never heard of before websites. Some of these websites even

00:26:24.160 plagiarize our articles and the plagiarized version of the articles appears higher in Google search

00:26:29.820 than the Breitbart News article itself. We even did an exclusive interview with President Trump a few

00:26:35.840 months ago and you couldn't find it on Google, even if you search for the exact headline. So it's

00:26:40.540 complete and total suppression. And I think Google is actually probably the worst. You have to consider

00:26:47.720 how this impacted the election. You know, I don't think stealing the election is a conspiracy theory,

00:26:52.360 because if you're an undecided voter and you were looking for results, looking for information about

00:26:56.740 Joe Biden or Donald Trump in the run-up of the election, and you went on Google, all you would find

00:27:01.900 would be a stream of propaganda from outlets and broadcasters that are hostile to President Trump.

00:27:07.080 So it's absurd to say that that didn't have a massive impact on the election, in my view.

00:27:11.100 Yeah. And the thing is, if you're a grassroots person, a severely no more voter,

00:27:15.780 to take the time to try and look into something deeper, that's unusual to begin with. Most people

00:27:20.840 are too busy. They're not particularly interested in politics as much as you and I are. So to have a

00:27:25.900 truly undecided person, a normal person, do that is a miracle in itself. And for them to be frustrated,

00:27:32.080 oh, I can't find what I was looking for, or find what they're looking for, but it's the rebuttal.

00:27:37.780 Quite often, I find, when people search for a conservative point of view, they'll get that

00:27:42.340 exact issue, but not the conservative point. They'll get the pre-buttal or the rebuttal to it

00:27:47.580 on the left. So you can't get the actual conservative story. You get the debunking of it,

00:27:54.220 which is probably the fake news, junk journalism in the first place.

00:27:59.480 Yeah. And I also want to push back on this idea that they're boosting authoritative sources over

00:28:03.780 non-authoritative sources. Because as I was saying, oftentimes when you search for Breitbart

00:28:09.200 headlines, you're going to find completely junk websites that just plagiarize our articles.

00:28:15.480 These are not authoritative sources at all by no one's definition of the term, yet they're

00:28:20.140 ranking higher than Breitbart News. So this is clearly an effort, I think, to suppress effective

00:28:25.300 conservative media, conservative media that had an impact in 2016 and would have an impact

00:28:31.120 if Silicon Valley wasn't rigging the playing field in favor of the Democrat-aligned media.

00:28:36.300 Yeah. Oh, exactly. When I say authoritative, I'm just using their word. I think you can tell

00:28:42.700 Canadians, so few Canadians watch, on any given day, we have more viewers of our videos than

00:28:49.820 CBC's flagship national newscast. So Canadians do not regard the CBC as authoritative. They regard

00:28:56.980 it as partisan, as a state broadcaster, which it is. I mean, it's incredible to me that it would

00:29:01.820 be called authoritative. That's just from the point of view of the left. I want to ask you about a

00:29:06.520 breaking news story. I think it just happened last night. There's a new network out there. There's

00:29:11.740 Fox News. Everyone's heard of Fox News. But there's a couple of up-and-comer, not quite as established

00:29:17.920 or well-funded, but they're trying. I enjoy them. Newsmax is the name of one of them. And

00:29:23.680 One America News, or OAN, is another. And they're not as many bells and whistles. They don't have the

00:29:29.080 same budget, but they've got a lot of heart, and they're a little bit more to the right, I'd say,

00:29:34.000 of Fox News. And all of a sudden, YouTube gives them what's called a strike, demonetizes their vids,

00:29:42.860 and I think they're suspended for posting new vids for a week. You suspend us for posting new vids

00:29:47.960 for a week. Frankly, we're almost out of business. That's our lifeblood.

00:29:52.960 Absolutely. And this is one of the other big impacts of Silicon Valley censorship,

00:29:56.940 how they can just strip someone of their livelihood. If you build a business on Facebook

00:30:00.940 or YouTube or an Instagram page or anything like that, Silicon Valley has the power to take that all

00:30:06.820 away from me with a snap of their fingers and with no legal due process. I mean, if a landlord tried

00:30:12.520 to evict an owner of a physical business, they'd have to get a court order. But you could have

00:30:18.140 hundreds, thousands of employees dependent on an online business in Silicon Valley could just

00:30:22.940 suddenly decide by executive decision to take that all away. Now, One American News is an interesting

00:30:29.520 story. They're increasingly favored by President Trump. They've come under scrutiny by the mainstream

00:30:34.920 media. And YouTube's excuse for censoring them was the fact that they supposedly violated YouTube's

00:30:42.580 COVID rules, which is interesting because it was a One American News correspondent, Jack Posobiec,

00:30:49.520 who was calling for a ban on travel to China way back in January, long before any Democrat did the

00:30:55.240 same. So this was actually a network that was earlier to recognize the dangers of the pandemic than many

00:31:04.300 in the mainstream media. And now we have YouTube censoring them for allegedly violating their COVID

00:31:10.720 rules. Yeah. And who knows what those COVID rules are to begin with? That was the same reason that Amazon

00:31:16.140 used to take down my book, China Virus. They banned it for two months, then they unbanned it for a week,

00:31:22.100 then they re-banned it, and then they re-unbanned it. I mean, you can't even take it seriously.

00:31:28.020 We're talking with a friend, Alan Bocari. He's the author of the book, Deleted Big Tech's Battle to

00:31:34.220 Erase the Trump Movement and Steal the Election. I remember when we spoke about this book in the

00:31:38.240 run-up to the vote, I hoped and prayed you were just being pessimistic, but I think it looks like

00:31:43.700 they pulled it off. I got one last question for you, my friend. You mentioned One American Network,

00:31:48.860 OAN. Trump refers to it a lot. He likes them. It's his favorite because they're a little bit more

00:31:55.100 partisan towards him, I'd say. It's fair to say. Parler, which is sort of like Twitter. I think

00:32:01.340 it's the closest analogy, and it's getting a lot more traffic. Ivanka Trump joined it the other day.

00:32:06.880 Who knows? Maybe they have to strengthen their systems. If Donald Trump says, I'm going to Parler,

00:32:11.780 you could theoretically have 10 million new people signing up in one day. You really could.

00:32:17.240 So they better be ready for that crush of traffic. But I see already the media party,

00:32:24.120 the tech rivals trying to denormalize and destabilize this rival. I saw Brian Stelter and

00:32:31.460 a guest say that this is dangerous to have a conservative outlet like that. No doubt you'll

00:32:37.420 have deep internet infrastructure questions like, will anyone process their credit card? Will they

00:32:45.060 lose their host? I mean, I don't even know the phraseology, but I mean, something's always built on

00:32:53.860 a deeper foundation. Are you worried that just like One American News is being cut off on the knees,

00:33:02.200 this new social media app called Parler will be destroyed because it's not part of the team?

00:33:09.640 I think they'll certainly try. And this is the whole problem with the build your own argument.

00:33:14.000 You know, you just have to build your own alternatives to the social networks. It's great what Parler is

00:33:18.600 doing. It's great that they're having success. But what they're going to encounter, I think,

00:33:22.340 is the same thing that happened to Gab, which was a similar free speech social network alternative

00:33:28.400 that gained traction a few years ago, which is that the mainstream media is going to relentlessly

00:33:35.640 target this new platform. They're going to relentlessly go after Parler and they're going to pressure

00:33:39.600 Google and Apple, number one, to cut them off from the app stores, thus cutting them off from,

00:33:44.800 you know, a worldwide market of smartphones. They're going to pressure payment processors,

00:33:50.540 as you said, to cut off, you know, payment processing, credit card processing. They're

00:33:54.740 going to pressure their DNS registrar, which gives you your website URL to cut that off as well.

00:34:01.500 They're going to pressure their web hosting companies. They're going to pressure Cloudflare.

00:34:05.420 All of these infrastructure providers that every website or app needs to survive,

00:34:10.260 they're going to pressure them to de-platform Parler. This is the playbook.

00:34:13.440 They did it with Gab. We're seeing them start to do it with Parler, too. But I will say,

00:34:19.300 Parler has enjoyed, you know, extraordinary growth. I have about,

00:34:22.940 oof, maybe a tenth of my followers on Parler that I have on Twitter, but I'm already seeing

00:34:26.960 engagement that's equal in Twitter. So it's no surprise to me that this has got the left and

00:34:32.920 got the mainstream media into a panic, because they really don't like the idea of a free and open

00:34:38.020 platform where people can organize and speak freely. They saw what they did in 2016,

00:34:43.380 and they were determined to kill that idea, that technology before 2020.

00:34:50.240 Yeah. Well, Rebel News has an account on Parler, and I'll be honest, I haven't paid a lot of

00:34:55.080 attention to it, but maybe we ought to put a little bit more effort into it. You mentioned DNS

00:34:59.240 registrar. In 2017, out of the blue, our DNS, I don't even know the terminology, contacted us and said,

00:35:07.360 guys, we're kicking you off, you have 24 hours notice, good luck out there. No explanation, no appeal.

00:35:13.940 We moved as quickly as we could, but it took about three days for our new, I don't even know the

00:35:19.420 terminology, DNS registry to propagate throughout the internet. So our entire company was offline,

00:35:27.200 depending where you were for one, two, even three days. Some anonymous staffer will never know who

00:35:35.100 at a company we didn't even know existed, deep underground that we didn't even know we stood on.

00:35:41.880 That's how vulnerable things are, and that was three years ago. I want to give one more shout out

00:35:47.080 to your book, Alan, because although it was focused on the election, the things you talk

00:35:52.020 about there, as we've just described, are perpetuating. Let's show it one more time on the

00:35:56.780 screen. Deleted Big Text Battle to Erase the Trump Movement and Steal the Election by Alan Bocari. I've

00:36:03.100 said it before, and I meant it. It's not just that I like you, Alan. I truly believe you are the most

00:36:07.780 important journalist in this critical field. You have the sources, you have the understanding,

00:36:13.760 and you see, you saw this clearly. For four years, you've been warning about it. If anyone cares

00:36:20.560 about this issue, and we all should, click the Amazon link under this video to get yourself a

00:36:27.760 copy of Alan's book, Before Amazon Bands It, and I've proved that they'll do that. Great to see you.

00:36:33.600 Keep it up. We'll keep watching Breitbart until you're deleted.

00:36:38.140 Thanks, Ezra. Great to be on.

00:36:40.120 Right on. There he is, Alan Bocari, one of our favorite guys.

00:36:43.160 Stay with us. More at it.

00:36:55.840 Hey, welcome back on my show last night. Sean writes,

00:36:58.500 people should show up to City Hall with barbecues of their own and have a massive barbecue protest?

00:37:03.720 Now, that's my kind of protest. Alexander writes, American store Costco is essential,

00:37:09.080 American Walmart is essential, American Starbucks or Wendy's is essential, but

00:37:12.460 Canadian small businesses and restaurants are not. Is Ford working for USA or for Canada?

00:37:18.200 Well, that's a good question. As I mentioned in the various live streams I did yesterday,

00:37:22.100 two of Ford's staff, someone named Melissa Lantzman and someone named David Tarrant,

00:37:27.880 were hired by a large Arkansas company. You may have heard of them. They're called Walmart.

00:37:32.580 They were hired to lobby Doug Ford. They got that private meeting between the CEO of Walmart,

00:37:37.860 Canada and Doug Ford. And that's where Walmart twisted and bent and the malleable Doug Ford. So,

00:37:44.300 yeah, I don't know if Ford himself is for sale, but his staff are. And what's super gross is that one

00:37:50.360 of those staff, Melissa Lantzman, I call her Lockdown Lantzman, she's now running to be an MP for the 1.00

00:37:55.700 Conservative Party. She's seeking a nomination to be a Conservative candidate in Thornhill, Ontario.

00:38:01.140 Super gross. Crystal writes,

00:38:04.380 Us Albertans would never allow it. Kenny knows that. We appreciate his apology,

00:38:07.760 but I still can't open my small business. The East allowed this socialism.

00:38:13.140 Fair to a degree, but listen, sister, who voted for Rachel Notley? I mean, I'm not saying you did,

00:38:21.080 but Albertans did. And boy, the NDP, they sure think they can come back in. And sometimes I look

00:38:29.260 at the media party out there and I fear they might be right. So yeah, I mean, the worst socialism in

00:38:34.520 Canada has always come from Ontario and Quebec, but don't think there's none of it out West too.

00:38:41.820 That's our show for today. Thanks for watching. What a busy week it's been. So many videos coming out.

00:38:46.420 It's please visit our YouTube channel. There's so much good stuff. And rebelnews.com is better than

00:38:51.620 ever, of course. Until Monday, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters,

00:38:56.540 see you at home. Good night and keep fighting for freedom.
