Summaries generated with gmurro/bart-large-finetuned-filtered-spotify-podcast-summ .

Zuckerberg's admission that the FBI colluded with the Deep State to influence the 2020 election is not a victory for free speech, but a defeat for the deep state and its corrupt institutions. The only lesson the Democratic Party and Deep State have learned is that censorship works. Once the secret police start rigging elections, you must take swift action or things get bad fast.

00:00:30.000 Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg released a statement Monday
00:00:33.220 acknowledging that Facebook actively censored information on COVID-19
00:00:37.260 and the Hunter Biden corruption scandal
00:00:39.320 due to direct pressure from the federal government.
00:00:42.500 Facts previously revealed by Elon Musk through the Twitter files
00:00:46.420 had already made it clear that government agencies like the FBI, CIA, and NSA
00:00:51.280 were regularly demanding the censorship of American citizens by social media companies.
00:00:56.160 But the letter from Zuckerberg sent to the House Judiciary Committee
00:00:59.520 serves as a smoking gun.
00:01:02.020 The official Republican House Judiciary account on Twitter celebrated this admission
00:01:06.240 as a victory for free speech.
00:01:08.300 But nothing could be further from the truth.
00:01:10.580 Despite the admission that government actors use censorship to interfere in the 2020 election
00:01:15.500 and silence dissent during the pandemic,
00:01:18.160 no one faces criminal prosecution.
00:01:20.460 And no one is getting fired.
00:01:21.960 The only lesson the Democratic Party and Deep State have learned is that censorship works.
00:01:29.220 Once the secret police start rigging elections, you must take swift action or things get bad fast.
00:01:35.980 That's exactly what's happened in the United States.
00:01:38.240 Zuckerberg's letter revealed that leading up to the 2020 election,
00:01:47.120 the FBI lied to Facebook executives by claiming that any story about the Biden family's connection
00:01:53.380 to the Ukrainian energy conglomerate Burisma was Russian disinformation.
00:01:58.740 Facebook took this warning seriously and suppressed the story on its platform,
00:02:03.280 denying millions of voters the information they needed to make an informed choice during the election.
00:02:09.680 Other social media companies took similar actions.
00:02:13.000 Twitter went so far as to lock the account of the New York Post for its story about Hunter Biden's laptop.
00:02:19.080 We know now that that story was true, and the FBI knew it was true as well.
00:02:24.120 However, the FBI wanted to rig the election in favor of Joe Biden,
00:02:27.380 so agency officials used their position of power to lie to corporations that control the flow of information in the United States
00:02:35.020 to influence the presidential contest.
00:02:38.500 Zuckerberg's apparent change of heart is at least theoretically great news.
00:02:42.560 The billionaire wields enormous influence over how Americans interact with information.
00:02:48.060 He also spent hundreds of millions of dollars in 2020 to reshape local election infrastructure
00:02:54.300 to favor the Democratic Party's machine politics, as Molly Hemingway outlined in her book, Rigged.
00:03:01.440 If Zuckerberg now feels compelled to admit his previous bias and commit to neutrality in the upcoming election,
00:03:08.520 it could shift the results of a close contest all by itself.
00:03:12.340 Of course, it's entirely possible that Zuckerberg is lying and still sympathizes with the Democrats.
00:03:17.780 However, if he feels pressured to play things closer down the middle, well, that's significant.
00:03:22.300 None of this should be seen as a win for the GOP and its representatives in Congress.
00:03:29.300 Both FBI Director Christopher Wray and Deputy Director Paul Abbott
00:03:33.480 appeared to perjure themselves on live television
00:03:36.360 during their testimony about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
00:03:40.920 We now know for a fact that the FBI acted to influence the election
00:03:44.860 by spreading lies to social media companies,
00:03:47.480 which then censored critical information leading up to the 2020 election.
00:03:51.380 Democrats don't hesitate to bring charges against their political enemies,
00:03:56.600 as shown by their efforts to imprison Donald Trump for the rest of his life on absurdly manufactured charges.
00:04:02.760 Yet even when Republicans have direct evidence of wrongdoing by the FBI,
00:04:07.460 the most their supporters can hope for is a social media post declaring a false victory.
00:04:12.300 This feels an awful lot like an embarrassing echo of George W. Bush's mission accomplished speech
00:04:19.780 during the war on terror, though at least in that case, some jihadis were actually killed.
00:04:25.800 Many conservatives may not even know what constitutes a victory at this point,
00:04:30.520 so let's make it clear.
00:04:31.580 A victory occurs when those that violated the law and corrupted institutions critical to the rule of law
00:04:38.240 are fired, impeached, or jailed.
00:04:41.880 Simply revealing that the FBI lied to social media companies to manipulate the election
00:04:46.660 and successfully install their preferred candidate without any repercussions is not a victory.
00:04:53.540 When I found out my friend got a great deal on a designer dress from Winners,
00:04:58.700 I started wondering,
00:05:00.320 is every fabulous item I see from Winners?
00:05:03.480 Like that woman over there with the Italian leather handbag. 1.00
00:05:06.420 Is that from Winners?
00:05:07.600 Ooh, or that beautiful silk skirt. 0.99
00:05:10.140 Did she pay full price?
00:05:11.380 Or those suede sneakers?
00:05:12.960 Or that luggage?
00:05:14.040 Or that trench?
00:05:15.180 Those jeans?
00:05:15.880 That jacket?
00:05:16.600 Those heels? 1.00
00:05:17.480 Is anyone paying full price for anything?
00:05:20.440 Stop wondering.
00:05:21.700 Start winning.
00:05:22.240 Winners find fabulous for less.
00:05:25.520 All this admission really does is show that the GOP is a fake opposition,
00:05:31.020 powerless to prevent abusive manipulation by a modern Praetorian guard.
00:05:36.740 Only life-altering consequences will stop the abusive actions of an elite class
00:05:42.100 that feels entitled to shape the nation as its members see fit.
00:05:46.320 And the GOP's repeated refusal to even threaten these type of actions lends itself to a very simple conclusion.
00:05:55.940 The Republicans aren't opposed to what's happening.
00:05:59.460 They are not outside this elite ruling class.
00:06:02.920 They do not have separate incentives, loyalties, or motivations.
00:06:07.740 They are a part of this.
00:06:10.220 They are enabling this.
00:06:12.560 They are accomplices to this.
00:06:16.640 To call the FBI a rogue organization would be a misnomer.
00:06:20.720 A rogue actor is one that is no longer operating in accordance with the will of the government.
00:06:25.680 But the FBI is not working against the wishes of the American government.
00:06:29.840 It is instead shaping that very government from the top down.
00:06:34.980 The FBI can lie about the attempted assassination of a presidential candidate,
00:06:39.660 lie to media organizations, and censor critical information to alter the outcome of elections,
00:06:44.920 and intimidate and incarcerate their political opposition.
00:06:48.920 This is ruled by a police force.
00:06:52.560 A reign defined by the ability to lie and to terrorize the American public.
00:06:58.280 By every available definition, this is tyranny.
00:07:03.280 Republicans are clearly afraid to challenge the FBI in any meaningful way.
00:07:09.340 Donald Trump hasn't helped much either,
00:07:11.240 as he seems more interested in building a shiny new headquarters for the federal police agency
00:07:16.380 than holding any of them accountable.
00:07:19.860 If they are not entirely bought and sold,
00:07:22.740 if they are not entirely complicit,
00:07:25.080 then someone in the GOP needs to take this issue seriously right now.
00:07:30.740 The FBI must be dismantled from the top to the bottom,
00:07:36.440 and those responsible must go to jail.
00:07:41.060 Without serious and immediate action,
00:07:44.520 law and order in the United States will continue to degrade,
00:07:48.960 and civil strife will increase.
00:07:51.940 The right needs real political opposition, 0.96
00:07:55.400 not the complicit clown show that the Republicans have been running.
00:08:00.000 And if they don't get it soon, 0.90
00:08:02.080 things will get even worse.
