Rebel News Podcast - Trudeau plans MORE Internet censorship during the next election (and the CBC loves the idea)

00:00:00.000 Hello, my rebels. In today's podcast, I take you through such a predictable and such a lamentable

00:00:06.720 statement by Trudeau's democracy minister, Karina Gould. She says we have to crack down

00:00:13.120 harder on the internet. And the CBC and CTV totally agree. But I take you through a story

00:00:21.360 in each of those TV companies, and I show you that it is based on a fabrication. I think you're

00:00:28.820 going to want to listen to this one. Before I get out of the way, please consider becoming a video

00:00:58.820 Tonight, Justin Trudeau plans to censor the internet even more deeply next election,

00:01:17.420 even though all the evidence shows it's more honest than he is. October 29th,

00:01:22.420 this is the Ezra LeVant Show. Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I

00:01:29.300 know? There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer. The only thing I have to say

00:01:35.040 to the government about why I'm publishing it is because it's my bloody right to do so.

00:01:39.660 Well, the Canadian election is over, and it was a bit of a dud. But all sorts of insane things that

00:01:51.900 the media party and the liberal party told us would happen just didn't happen. Remember this disgraced

00:02:00.180 crank, the former Privy Council clerk, Michael Wernick? He was up to his eyeballs in the corruption 0.95

00:02:06.340 of the SNC-Lavalin matter, and he resigned under an ethical cloud. One of his last acts in office

00:02:14.120 was to testify before Parliament's Justice Committee, and apropos of nothing, he just went

00:02:19.340 nuts, suggesting that the internet was whipping up assassination attempts or something just 100%

00:02:26.620 kooky like that.

00:02:27.440 I worry about the rising tide of incitements to violence, when people use terms like treason and

00:02:35.140 traitor in open discourse. Those are the words that lead to assassination. I'm worried that somebody's

00:02:40.340 going to be shot in this country this year during the political campaign. 0.99

00:02:45.020 What a weirdo. That didn't happen. I think that was a pre-hoax. The whole point was obvious. The liberals 0.98

00:02:52.680 were in deep trouble, and they knew they could get the media party to switch topics by claiming

00:02:59.320 that someone bad, probably a gun-owning right-winger, was trying to assassinate Dear Justin. So everybody,

00:03:06.520 please stop talking about Jody Wilson-Raybould while we talk about this hoax.

00:03:10.500 It's a trick they tried at the end of the campaign, too, when they were really sagging.

00:03:15.800 Trudeau entered a packed rally, 90 minutes late, surrounded by these SWAT team-style police,

00:03:22.180 and he was wearing a bulletproof vest. And in a break with all tradition and with any

00:03:28.600 operational security considerations, Trudeau's spin doctors made sure to tell every reporter

00:03:33.240 that there was a real risk to Trudeau's life, everybody. So he's a brave hero for coming out

00:03:38.940 into the rally anyways. Now, Trudeau sent his wife and his kids home because apparently it was such

00:03:46.020 a threat. Did that ring true to you, or was it just another Wernick move? Why would you send only

00:03:53.860 your own wife and kids home if there was a terrorist threat to the whole room? Why wouldn't you send the

00:03:59.620 400 mere citizens in the room home, too? Why would you wait 90 minutes while you assess the risk of the

00:04:08.020 attack of a bomb threat and put on a bulletproof vest and do all that, but not take those 90 minutes just to

00:04:13.900 empty the room, empty the room, search the room, and then allow people back in, say, through a metal

00:04:18.420 detector? There wasn't even a guard at the door, but boy, he had a bulletproof vest on. Why would you

00:04:26.700 do all of that security theater inside the room, but not even have like an usher or like a minimum wage

00:04:33.620 high school kid at the door looking in backpack? Doesn't add up. Just a few days later, having Trudeau

00:04:41.060 out, shaking hands in public, unguarded, here just with the crowds and right after the election,

00:04:48.420 the subway in Montreal? Why would you do that when the so-called terrorists haven't been arrested yet?

00:04:56.060 Is the threat suddenly gone? Yeah, it was fake. It was fake, fake, fake. We know Trudeau's a fake.

00:05:02.480 He's a dramatic actor. This is dramatic acting in the middle of an election for sympathy. You don't

00:05:08.940 proceed with a rally with 400 people in the room if there's a real terrorist threat. You don't send

00:05:14.660 your own wife and kids home but let 400 people proceed without so much as a search. It was a lie.

00:05:20.460 And maybe it worked. Trudeau eked out a minority, and so far as we know, there wasn't any noteworthy

00:05:27.580 interference in the election at all. I mean, of course, there was interference from big spending

00:05:32.380 dark money groups, whether it was the journalist union called Unifor or from foreign-backed environmental

00:05:37.420 groups. So yeah, there was actually interference, but nothing online of any substance, no violence,

00:05:43.720 of course. I mean, look, online, there was the usual interference, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube,

00:05:50.700 censoring conservatives as they always do, but no attempt to hack our election, whatever that would

00:05:57.200 mean. We don't even use electronic voting booths. We mark an X on paper. I'm not sure what hacking an

00:06:02.460 election in Canada would even look like. And neither does Trudeau or his chief election censor,

00:06:07.440 Karina Gould, the minister in charge, by the way. She's the one who set up all these censorship panels 0.96

00:06:12.500 before the election, including one that Michael Wernick was supposed to chair. Oh, and by the way,

00:06:16.920 this had the total support of Andrew Scheer. But there was nothing. No alarm bells rang. But you

00:06:22.280 know who wants censorship of the internet even more than Michael Wernick or Justin Trudeau or Karina

00:06:28.420 Gould or Andrew Scheer? The CBC state broadcaster, because when they think of meddling, what they

00:06:35.780 really mean is someone saying something that's off-narrative, something the CBC would disagree

00:06:40.220 with. Here, let me take you through this incredible story a bit. The headline on this CBC story is

00:06:45.580 More needs to be done, Gould says after some online election meddling detected. Oh, wow. So there was

00:06:53.600 meddling. Okay. Well, obviously Gould needs to do what she's doing, plus more than. The government 1.00

00:07:01.100 broadcaster even said so, right? Let me quote some more. There were attempts to spread misinformation

00:07:08.220 or disinformation. Officials confirm. Well, if the officials confirm him, then it must be true.

00:07:14.540 The government has to step up its fight against online disinformation in the wake of the federal

00:07:20.940 election, says Democratic Institutions Minister Karina Gould. Going forward, there is still a

00:07:26.900 sense that more needs to be done to address the spread of disinformation on social media platforms,

00:07:32.780 Gould said in a statement to CBC News. There's still a sense that more needs to be done? What does that

00:07:39.520 mean? She feels it in her bones or something? Well, you heard the officials said there were

00:07:45.920 problems. So what did those officials say? Who were the officials? Do we have censorship officials

00:07:53.180 now? Well, here, let me read from the state broadcaster. Yes, there have been some activities

00:07:59.600 observed, none of which met the threshold as identified by the panel. Instead, Stefan Schenck,

00:08:07.440 manager of media relations for the Privy Council office, therefore no public communication.

00:08:12.240 Okay, let me quote the other comment by the same official. This is all of it. I'm not leaving

00:08:16.720 anything out that he said in this news report, and there were no other officials quoted.

00:08:22.000 The panel, that's the panel Michael Wernick was supposed to be on, made some observations,

00:08:28.160 but did not observe a level of activity that would warrant a public announcement or meet the

00:08:34.080 threshold that would then take the next step to make a public announcement on whether Canada's ability

00:08:38.720 to have a free and fair election was compromised. So there was nothing of note, nothing substantial,

00:08:45.300 nothing significant enough to even mention. The Geiger counter just didn't ping. But you saw the CBC

00:08:54.980 headline. The liberals say more needs to be done. And what did the government journalists at the CBC

00:09:02.180 write again? There were attempts to spread misinformation or disinformation officials confirmed.

00:09:08.820 Well, I just read you every single word quoted from the only official quote in the story.

00:09:12.340 Did they in fact confirm what the CBC said they confirmed? They did not.

00:09:17.540 They confirmed the opposite. The CBC are lying to you again.

00:09:23.140 So the CBC looked around and found some foreign corporation in the UK who said,

00:09:28.420 well, they saw some tweets about something. Let me read you this pitiful attempt by the CBC to justify

00:09:34.260 the panic. Between 19 and 21 October 2019, out of 272,964 election 43 in Canadian Poly hashtag mentions,

00:09:48.020 4,433 were made by 1,669 low credibility Twitter accounts. Astro screens report found. That's this

00:09:57.300 foreign company. That's what you got. One or 2% of tweets were made by low credibility accounts. What's

00:10:08.580 what's that? What's a low credibility account? I think Catherine McKenna's Twitter account

00:10:13.780 is a low credibility account because she says she lied. But you know, I actually gave them some real

00:10:23.540 advice. I said that if you actually say it louder, we've learned in the House of Commons, if you repeat

00:10:28.100 it, if you say it louder, if that is your talking point, people will totally believe it.

00:10:32.260 Hey kids, friendly advice. Don't drink and tweet. Okay. Okay. So some foreign company in the UK

00:10:40.660 tells the CBC that they studied a quarter million tweets and they found that one or 2% of tweets

00:10:47.220 had low credibility. So the tweets in the election were like 98% credible. Let me know when the CBC

00:10:56.100 is that accurate. Okay. I mean, there were a lot of tweets with this clip in them. The allegations

00:11:04.020 in the Globe story this morning are false. Neither the current nor the previous attorney general

00:11:11.700 was ever directed by me or by anyone in my office to take a decision in this matter.

00:11:20.260 That was from February. That's Justin Trudeau lying, saying that the Global

00:11:25.380 Mail's report in February about how he fired Jody Wilson-Raybould for blocking his attempted

00:11:30.820 interference in the criminal trial was false. He said it was false. In fact, the story was not false.

00:11:36.100 It was accurate. Justin Trudeau was a liar. Tweets with that video in them were lies. 1.00

00:11:44.260 So does Trudeau count as high credibility or low credibility in the minds of a UK company? You know,

00:11:50.180 the answer is up to you and me, actually. It's up to all of us. That's what a campaign is about,

00:11:55.860 really. That's what an election is about. Stripped of its niceties, each party's campaign is really

00:12:01.300 calling the other guy a liar, or at least wrong. But Trudeau and Karina Gould and some weirdo in the UK

00:12:08.340 thinks they get to decide what's credible or not. Let me quote one more expert for you. His name is Kevin

00:12:13.780 Chan. He's the head of Facebook censorship in Canada, who also just happens by the strangest

00:12:20.260 of coincidences to be a former Liberal Party staffer who worked in the office of the Liberal

00:12:25.220 Leader. What are the odds? And here's what he says. Kevin Chan, head of public policy at Facebook Canada,

00:12:32.740 said he was cautiously optimistic that the steps it took to prevent its platform from being used to

00:12:37.860 interfere in the election worked. He said Facebook did see some signs of attempts at voter suppression,

00:12:44.100 such as posts suggesting supporters of different parties were supposed to vote on different days.

00:12:50.100 For us, it's very hard to know if they were joking, or it was a satire, or was it something

00:12:57.540 nefarious, Chan said. We do have a voter suppression policy in our community standards, so we were

00:13:02.420 proactively looking for these things and removing them when we did find them, Chan said. Facebook didn't

00:13:07.300 see signs of foreign election interference. Oh. See, the CBC headline said the government needs to do

00:13:16.500 more. And the sub-headline said officials confirmed there was interference. But in fact, the Canadian

00:13:22.660 government official confirmed no such thing. And the foreign weirdos in the UK said election 0.83

00:13:27.540 chatter on Twitter was like 98 or 99 percent authentic. And what does inauthentic even mean? The

00:13:33.780 liberal who runs Facebook said they didn't detect any problems. They're optimistic. But

00:13:39.940 Trudeau knows he wants to censor his enemies. And that's everyone on the internet. And the CBC knows

00:13:46.420 what the boss wants. I mean, look, the CBC is even suing one of Trudeau's enemies right now. The CBC is

00:13:54.340 suing the Conservative Party. Right in the middle of the election campaign, the CBC-controlled

00:13:58.980 Parliamentary Press Gallery conspired with Trudeau's Debates Convention to keep us and True North out of

00:14:04.500 the leadership debate scrum. They don't want other voices. We know all this. It's not just the CBC.

00:14:10.980 It's all the legacy media. Here's a bizarre story published by CTV. So this is a tweet from a lobby

00:14:18.580 group called Hill and Knowlton, a lobbyist over there. What's behind Wexit? That's Western separatism.

00:14:24.420 Conservative bots. That's like robots. A lot of them. To start with, Blaine Mackey and I cracked the

00:14:31.700 rise of the hashtag. Okay, so who's talking there? Who was I reading? Well, that's a lobbyist with Hill

00:14:41.540 and Knowlton. That's where the H&K Canada is. It's a major international lobby group that's in there for

00:14:46.900 hire. They're mercenaries that literally work for anyone anywhere around the world. They have a major

00:14:51.700 Russian office. I'm just pointing that out. And for some reason, CTV published a whole news story

00:15:01.060 based on what this international lobby group claimed, that the Western Canadian separatist

00:15:05.940 movement was just fake, started by some robots, some fake disinformation. Now, this isn't what I

00:15:12.900 showed you. There was not actually the first version they published. They deleted the first version

00:15:17.700 without an editor's note or a correction or a clarification, because the first version they

00:15:22.340 published, based on the lies of Hill and Knowlton, claimed that a whole bunch of very specific people

00:15:28.740 on Twitter were fake, were robots. Bots, as they said, were liars. The implication, of course, being that 0.86

00:15:34.820 Western separatism is fake and no one should believe it. And CTV just ran with that. Uh-oh.

00:15:40.020 No. Except that they weren't. I mean, here's one Aboriginal woman, very real, who clapped back at CTV

00:15:46.740 and Hill and Knowlton and pointed out that CTV didn't even ask her if she was real before claiming

00:15:52.260 she was a robot. Yeah, no, she's real. Real people are unhappy in Western Canada. But CTV and this lobby

00:16:00.100 group, Hill and Knowlton, they were the fake ones, not the bots. They were the ones lying. And then they

00:16:07.060 quietly edited the story to remove all the details of their accusations. But no explanation, no

00:16:12.100 correction, no apology, and no answer for why is the media party simply taking stories from foreign

00:16:18.100 lobby firms and running them as news? Why this UK firm in the CBC story? Why this Hill and Knowlton

00:16:25.620 Russian firm here? That's, that's corrupt. Why are you running lobbyists as if that's news? 0.89

00:16:31.940 Maybe that's even the foreign meddling we've been looking for. Yeah. I'm not worried about some 1.00

00:16:38.580 guy on Facebook who says that Trudeau had an affair with a teenager at West Point Grey Academy

00:16:44.900 when he was a teacher there. I haven't seen real proof of that rumor, by the way,

00:16:48.980 other than some circumstantial evidence. I didn't report on that rumor because I'm not going to put

00:16:55.220 my reputation staked on rumors. If some guy on Twitter or Facebook wants to, that's his business.

00:17:01.620 And it's each of our own business to decide who to believe and who not to believe and who to

00:17:06.180 challenge and who to accept. Like I say, some random guy on Facebook could be lying, could be

00:17:11.140 telling the truth, but we know the liberals lie. But you know, I actually gave them some real advice.

00:17:19.140 I said that if you actually say it louder, we've learned in the House of Commons, if you repeat it,

00:17:23.460 if you say it louder, if that is your talking point, people will totally believe it.

00:17:27.460 Look, I'm much less worried about some guy getting something wrong on Facebook

00:17:34.180 than I am worried about Trudeau and Gould and even Andrew Scheer telling me that I can't make

00:17:40.100 up my own mind about things for myself and that they will be the censors of Canada. Stay with us for more.

00:17:48.980 Stay with us for more.

00:17:51.700 Stay with us for more.

00:17:53.700 Stay with us for more.

00:17:55.700 Stay with us for more.

00:17:57.700 Stay with us for more.

00:17:59.700 Stay with us for more.

00:18:01.700 This night, the United States brought the world's number one terrorist leader to justice.

00:18:08.340 Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead.

00:18:12.740 He was the founder and leader of ISIS, the most ruthless and violent terror organization anywhere in the world.

00:18:21.860 The United States has been searching for Baghdadi for many years.

00:18:28.580 Capturing or killing Baghdadi has been the top national security priority of my administration.

00:18:35.620 U.S. Special Operations Forces executed a dangerous and daring nighttime raid in northwestern Syria and

00:18:45.780 accomplished their mission in grand style.

00:18:50.660 The U.S. personnel were incredible.

00:18:54.260 That's Donald Trump.

00:18:56.900 I saw that announcement live on Sunday morning.

00:19:00.100 I thought, oh, I'll just watch for a few minutes.

00:19:02.820 I found myself riveted.

00:19:04.980 Donald Trump is quite a storyteller.

00:19:07.540 He knows how to communicate.

00:19:09.620 Of course, you would expect a man who hosted the widely viewed apprenticeship,

00:19:16.820 the apprentice series to have a certain flair.

00:19:19.540 Of course, the story was incredible.

00:19:21.700 And the details were communicated by the president in his signature manner.

00:19:27.220 He talked about the dogs chasing down al-Baghdadi.

00:19:31.780 And he really emphasized the cowardice with which Baghdadi met his final moments,

00:19:38.340 fleeing down a dead-ended tunnel with three of his children and I think two of his wives and blowing himself up.

00:19:44.740 Trump really emphasized the humiliating end of Baghdadi.

00:19:50.020 And that didn't impress the liberal media who thought it was too mean.

00:19:54.340 To me, it sounded obvious.

00:19:56.100 A way to demystify and take away the mystique and the psychic power that Baghdadi held. 0.90

00:20:03.060 It's just like when they captured Saddam Hussein in a little spider hole in Iraq and they manhandled him and 0.72

00:20:11.780 plucked at his beard to make him look as lowly as possible to bring down the mega man to a nothing.

00:20:18.660 I thought it was very powerful.

00:20:20.420 Alas, the media did not agree with me.

00:20:23.460 And joining me now, one of the few media to celebrate the downfall of this tyrant

00:20:28.980 and to talk about the mainstream media's reaction to it is our friend Joel Pollack,

00:20:33.140 Senior Editor-at-Large at Breitbart.com.

00:20:35.220 Joel, great to see you again.

00:20:36.580 Thanks for being here.

00:20:38.820 It seems impossible, but the leading media in America and Canada, too,

00:20:45.300 actually seem to take Baghdadi's side.

00:20:47.620 I know that sounds crazy, but we'll have some examples from the Washington Post and

00:20:52.100 from Bloomberg and even from global TV here.

00:20:55.300 I'm not saying the media were cheering for him, but they were mad that Trump was triumphant.

00:21:00.660 I think that's right.

00:21:01.620 I think they were less pro-Baghdadi than anti-Trump and they understand what this could

00:21:07.860 mean for his re-election chances.

00:21:10.260 Recall that Barack Obama essentially cemented his re-election with the successful raid that

00:21:17.380 killed Osama bin Laden in May 2011.

00:21:20.340 He passed the Commander-in-Chief test and that was a big concern about Obama, who had no military

00:21:25.300 experience, no national security experience, and a deep history in the anti-war movement.

00:21:31.380 So people thought, is this going to be a problem for him when he has to fight terrorism?

00:21:35.860 And Obama proved a lot of that criticism wrong with the decision, and it was a bold one,

00:21:42.020 to authorize the raid on bin Laden.

00:21:44.580 Now, Trump actually, interestingly, after the raid was announced, congratulated Obama personally.

00:21:50.180 This was at a time when he was pursuing Obama for his birth certificate and all kinds of other

00:21:53.700 things.

00:21:54.020 But Trump issued a statement personally congratulating Barack Obama and calling on Americans to put

00:21:59.780 politics aside for a moment while the country savored the victory.

00:22:04.420 What you're seeing now is Democrats and the media are refusing to give Trump credit.

00:22:11.540 You saw the Democrats congratulate the military and so forth, but they didn't congratulate Donald

00:22:15.540 Trump.

00:22:15.940 They didn't say he had done anything.

00:22:17.780 Many of them now say that this success happened in spite of him.

00:22:21.780 Joe Biden gave a detailed interview today to the Washington Post saying that Trump will never

00:22:27.700 have another success like that again because his foreign policy is basically confused.

00:22:32.980 And they're just desperate to spin this as somehow something bad for Trump.

00:22:38.660 They understand that Trump doing this, killing the leader of ISIS, who terrified Americans with

00:22:44.420 his graphic executions, beheadings, and all kinds of tortures.

00:22:49.700 This man who haunted the American consciousness for so many years is dead and was killed essentially

00:22:56.340 during a confrontation with a dog.

00:22:59.700 This should be cause for celebration.

00:23:01.140 But the media are making sure that Americans do not think about this as a success for Donald

00:23:06.180 Trump, even though he did make the not just a decision to do this, but he kept it under wraps.

00:23:12.900 This is a president who we were told would give away national security secrets.

00:23:16.180 In fact, we were told that he had done so because he had to declassify things about

00:23:20.500 Russia and so forth.

00:23:22.420 We were told this guy's Twitter account was a national security threat.

00:23:26.660 Donald Trump, the most media accessible, social media addicted president we've ever had,

00:23:32.580 kept this entirely under wraps.

00:23:34.660 And that also makes him look like, as with Obama, he's passed the commander in chief test.

00:23:40.180 You could argue he had already done so, but this also boosts Trump's decision to withdraw

00:23:45.380 U.S. troops from Syria because what he's shown is he can go after the ISIS leadership and take

00:23:50.100 out their command structure without having to commit thousands and thousands of American soldiers

00:23:54.900 to the region.

00:23:56.020 And basically a huge national security and foreign policy win for Trump.

00:24:00.340 That's why the media and the Democrats are so angry about it.

00:24:02.500 Yeah. You know, what also made them angry is that Trump did not give them advance notice and that

00:24:09.620 many of them found out when Trump told the world. And it's so obvious to me, even as a foreigner up

00:24:17.380 here in Canada, Joel, that if he would have told people like Nancy Pelosi or Adam Schiff,

00:24:24.580 they would have leaked it either themselves publicly or given it to their friends in the

00:24:30.580 Washington Post. It's so obvious that keeping it secret from the Democrats was an important

00:24:36.580 national security decision, too. And that infuriated them.

00:24:41.780 Well, giving something to Adam Schiff is giving it to the Washington Post.

00:24:45.220 Giving something to Nancy Pelosi is giving it to the New York Times. They have a direct pipeline 0.97

00:24:49.620 to these newspapers. They've shown they cannot be trusted, especially Adam Schiff, who calls the

00:24:55.060 impeachment inquiry a grand jury investigation and then proceeds to leak details of testimony that

00:25:00.660 no one else is allowed to see. Of course, a grand jury is supposed to be secret. If this really is

00:25:04.500 a grand jury investigation, he's in legal trouble. It's not. But that's what he's been telling everyone.

00:25:10.340 And meanwhile, he's leaking selective documents to make Trump look as bad as possible. He is

00:25:14.500 a leaker in chief. And Trump is right not to share information like that with him, even if he does

00:25:21.460 hold the position of House Intelligence Committee chair. By the way, Republicans weren't briefed either.

00:25:26.420 I think the president was right to keep this as close to his chest as possible and let politicians

00:25:31.860 know when it was time for everyone to know. There's nothing they needed to know about this

00:25:35.780 that would have enhanced the operation in any way. What would they have done to help him? I mean,

00:25:39.620 what would be the purpose of informing them? There's no purpose. They just don't like that

00:25:44.580 their egos are a bit bruised. Nancy Pelosi seems to think she is the president. She's argued for months 0.79

00:25:48.820 that she has co-equal status to the president. She was just in Jordan to discuss the Syria situation.

00:25:54.180 Of course, last time she went to Syria, it was to play footsie with Bashar al-Assad, who was then about

00:25:59.700 to slaughter hundreds of thousands of people. She thought that was a good idea to show that we could be

00:26:03.940 diplomatic with Assad. And he was a reformer, Hillary Clinton told it. So that's Pelosi's track

00:26:09.380 record on diplomacy in Syria. So anyway, they're upset. I think it's good that they're upset.

00:26:15.140 People like it when they're upset. And I think this is still a big win for Trump. And you're going to

00:26:20.100 start to see Americans rally around him. I think this is a very important turning point with regard to 2020.

00:26:25.860 Yeah. I remember Obama had an unofficial reelection slogan, Bin Laden is dead and Detroit is alive.

00:26:35.780 And that was a powerful thing to say. Let me show you the first headlines that the Washington Post

00:26:43.140 and Bloomberg put up. This is the Post. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, austere religious scholar at

00:26:50.660 helm of Islamic State, dies of 48. Not the word terrorist or murderer. And he personally

00:26:58.500 conducted the most violent crime. He personally raped an American woman. Like personally. He didn't, 0.99

00:27:04.500 it's not even that he delegated it. He himself was a monster and a war criminal. And the Washington Post 0.99

00:27:11.700 emphasizes he's a modest man and a scholar. And he helmed the Islamic State. That, you cannot read 0.97

00:27:20.580 that without knowing that the Washington Post is not on America's side. Or if they are, it's grudging.

00:27:30.180 Yeah. And the woman he writes was Kayla Muller, who is and was an outstanding American who

00:27:39.140 worked in Syria with humanitarian aid organizations. And she was killed under Baghdadi's orders. She,

00:27:48.020 I think, was one of the victims of a bombing raid, but she wouldn't have been there had Baghdadi not 0.93

00:27:53.300 executed that Jordanian pilot in brutal fashion, burning him alive and filming it and so forth. 0.98

00:27:59.860 Kayla Muller was her name. She was forced into slavery by the leader of the so-called Islamic State. And

00:28:08.180 by the way, also journalists were murdered by this thug. And yet the people who tell us democracy dies in

00:28:15.860 darkness didn't really seem to have much sympathy for a journalist and a murdered humanitarian aid worker

00:28:23.300 who were Americans. They had this approach to Baghdadi as if he were some sort of

00:28:28.260 fanciful object of interest you could hold at arm's length. Oh yes, you know, respected scholar and all

00:28:33.140 that. One thing that is interesting about Baghdadi is that he was raised in a middle-class family.

00:28:38.100 And back around the time of 9-11, there were all these debates about why Islamic terrorism exists.

00:28:44.180 And on the left, people said it's because of poverty. No, it's not. Many of the people who

00:28:48.180 lead these terror organizations are from middle-class upbringings, and this is how they decide to make

00:28:52.980 their way in the world. So he came from a family of some means, and he came radicalized at university,

00:29:00.740 of course, in a society where very few people go to university. He joined the Muslim Brotherhood and so on and

00:29:06.500 so forth. So yeah, it's amazing how our media have reacted. They look very, very bad. And especially

00:29:13.220 when you look at the Washington Post motto, democracy dies in darkness. That ran above the

00:29:18.180 obituary, at least in the online version. And you just say to yourself, do these people even understand

00:29:24.020 basic values they purport to defend? I don't think they do. Yeah. You know, the phrase austere scholar,

00:29:30.180 that's such an unusual combination of words that it cannot be a coincidence that one of Canada's

00:29:36.420 so-called terrorism experts, he's on the CBC all the time. Here he is on Global News, using that exact

00:29:43.140 language. Take a look at this clip from Canada's Global News.

00:29:48.180 Kind of austere religious leader. He has a way to show supporters that he was this kind of austere

00:29:55.140 religious leader. He has a way... Yeah, I mean, I'm sorry, that's just not a coincidence that Canada's terrorism

00:30:01.060 expert is parroting the Washington Post. Let me show you one more example. I don't want our viewers

00:30:06.660 to think that it was just the Washington Post. Here's Bloomberg. Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi

00:30:13.860 transformed himself from a little-known teacher of Quranic recitation into the self-proclaimed ruler

00:30:20.660 of an entity that covered swaths of Syria and Iraq. Wow! He was almost the same kind of entrepreneur

00:30:26.980 as Trump in his own way. You know, the funny thing on both of these, not only is that they don't

00:30:32.260 mention terrorism, murder, rape, but they're suddenly giving him credit as a religious scholar, whereas

00:30:38.020 the media party line for five years now has been, no, no, no, no, this isn't the true religion.

00:30:44.740 This isn't really Islam. But both the Post and Bloomberg say, no, he's a religious scholar,

00:30:51.220 Quranic expert. Now they're only saying that now. It's so embarrassing and so noticeable. 0.99

00:30:58.900 And I should point out, you mentioned that the media didn't give Trump himself credit. Neither

00:31:04.020 did Canada's Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, put out a belated tweet. Again, not using the word

00:31:10.740 terrorism and not giving credit to Trump. I think this is just a reminder that on terrorism and military

00:31:18.660 issues, the establishment is so, so, so far off from ordinary Americans and Canadians. And I hope 0.97

00:31:25.380 you're right that this is a defining moment for the 2020 election. Last word to you, Joel.

00:31:31.780 Well, it's unfortunate that people see things this way. I think it shows the degree to which

00:31:35.860 many Americans have been misled by media to see absolutely everything in their lives in a partisan

00:31:42.980 or through a partisan lens. When Obama came on TV to declare that Osama bin Laden had been killed,

00:31:48.740 I lit up a cigar, literally, on the deck of my building. And it didn't matter who got the credit.

00:31:56.740 I mean, this was a victory for civilization. And the same is true of the death of the ISIS leader. And

00:32:03.700 that's really how we should have absorbed the news. But if not for the dog, I mean, the dog has become

00:32:09.380 sort of a unifying figure. The dog that confronted the ISIS leader was sent there, maybe with a camera,

00:32:16.740 who knows, but basically sent to track him down while he was running away in a tunnel and so forth.

00:32:22.500 Everybody likes dogs. That's a good thing. Good thing to have a hero that will never have a political

00:32:26.740 opinion. But other than that, you know, people have been, have been, I think, overly partisan and

00:32:31.700 reacting to this news. And it's sad. And the media have driven at least half of the American public into

00:32:37.940 that particular corner. Yeah. Well, it's disappointing, but it doesn't take away from

00:32:44.820 the fact that Baghdadi is dead. And I understand from another tweet from Trump today, the number two

00:32:51.460 commander in ISIS was also just killed. It's interesting. He was killed. Also,

00:32:56.180 the spokesman was killed. I think what happened was that, unlike the Obama administration, which

00:33:00.660 sat on the intelligence in bin Laden's headquarters for a long time, the Trump administration is acting on

00:33:06.020 everything they found in the al-Baghdadi headquarters. And they're just mopping up as many people as they

00:33:11.060 can before they can find new hiding places, before they can leave Syria, before they can get to some

00:33:15.780 other place. I think the U.S. military is going after whoever they can and the command structure

00:33:20.740 based on communications and evidence they would have found that hideout. Incredible. Well, Joel,

00:33:25.780 great to see you. And thanks for talking about this with us and keeping the great work at Breitbart.

00:33:30.580 There you have it. Our friend Joel Pollack, senior editor at large with Breitbart.com. Stay with us.

00:33:34.900 More ahead on The Rebel.

00:33:44.980 Hey, on my monologue yesterday about a globalist lobby group wanting Canada's population to reach

00:33:50.660 100 million people, Billy writes, since 2010, Japan's population has been stagnant. During that time,

00:33:56.900 their standing on the quality of life index has stayed the same in 13th or 14th. Canada's quality 0.51

00:34:01.780 of life went from 7th in 2012. And this year, Canada's 17th. Canada's population increased by 10%

00:34:09.300 since 2010. In fact, population increase does not equate to an improved standard of living. The globalists

00:34:15.460 are lying. Yeah, I mean, if you've ever driven a car in Toronto or Vancouver, or even these days,

00:34:25.540 Calgary, Edmonton, Montreal, more cars on the road isn't improved quality of life. If you've ever tried

00:34:33.540 to buy a house or rent property in Vancouver, Toronto, you know that more people supply and demand,

00:34:42.180 more people trying to buy up houses. That's not a good thing. You try and get a job and you know,

00:34:46.180 there's a lot of cheap labor driving down wages. That's not a good thing. Yeah, it's not always a

00:34:52.100 good thing when all of a sudden you have thousands or millions of people ahead of the line for

00:34:58.420 hospitals, pensions. It's just not related. If the only thing you care about is gross GDP,

00:35:07.860 I guess, which is why this globalist lobby group is packed full of banks, because I guess there's

00:35:15.780 going to be more mortgages and more things to sell. That ain't quality of life.

00:35:22.580 On my interview with Tanya Granick-Allen, Liz writes,

00:35:26.340 I hope Tanya Granick-Allen gets back into politics. She was terribly used by Doug Ford.

00:35:32.900 Yeah, I, you know, I gotta say that's true. I mean, she endorsed him, she supported him,

00:35:37.140 and then he threw her out at the first moment, and I don't think it was a good look.

00:35:40.180 On the topic of Alberta separation, John writes, most Albertans would prefer Quebec left Canada

00:35:47.380 over Alberta leaving. It would save them a bundle. What do you think? You know,

00:35:51.460 that's an interesting way to put it. That's why I don't think Quebec would ever leave,

00:35:58.420 because it gets so much. They just want the pain, the friction, the transaction cost of the negotiation

00:36:05.060 to be so high that the rest of Canada says, fine, stay, keep your millions and billions.

00:36:11.220 Whereas Alberta, Alberta would say, OK, guys, we're going to go now. OK, see you later.

00:36:16.340 And would actually go if they were to go, because there's so much money Alberta ships to the rest of 1.00

00:36:23.060 the country, they would immediately be able to eliminate income tax. Just stop and think about that.

00:36:29.140 Just, boom, gone. Could you imagine? A whole province where there's no income tax. How does that work?

00:36:37.780 Well, that works if Alberta doesn't have the proper record anymore. So yeah, Wexit, that's not being 1.00

00:36:43.060 promoted by bots, despite what the lobby firms say. Well, folks, that's the show for today. Until

00:36:48.660 tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night,

00:36:53.140 and keep fighting for freedom.
