Katie Simpson asked a ridiculous question at a White House press briefing. It was meant to generate pro-Democrat propaganda to help out the carny liberal media. She should have been fired for asking the question, not for asking it.

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here. Although I don't like the CBC and would love to see them get their
00:00:06.360 funding pulled, it goes without saying that there are still some good quality CBC reporters. Kate
00:00:12.340 McKenna is an obvious example. She recently broke the story of the button gate scandal where the
00:00:18.060 carny liberals had operatives going around placing Trump style buttons at conservative conventions
00:00:23.260 in order to try and artificially generate anti-conservative smear stories. If the CBC got
00:00:29.080 its funding pulled tomorrow, I assume that Kate McKenna would probably find work somewhere in 1.00
00:00:34.060 the industry. But then there is the average quality of CBC reporters fully embodied in Katie Simpson's
00:00:41.960 question that she asked at a White House press briefing. This is a propaganda question. It was
00:00:48.500 a question meant to try and generate pro-liberal propaganda during a Canadian federal election to
00:00:55.060 help out the carny liberals. I'm about to play this question in just a second. I don't even need to 0.99
00:01:01.060 tell you why she asked this. You will understand why this was asked in just a second. But before I get
00:01:07.900 into it, guys, I just want to quickly plug, hey, if you like this channel, make sure to like the video,
00:01:13.420 subscribe. If you are not yet a subscriber and you've liked my election coverage, leave a comment.
00:01:18.200 It helps us in the algorithm. And I actually enjoy going through a few times after a video is published
00:01:22.700 and seeing what people are saying about the topic of the day. Anyways, now, without further ado,
00:01:28.840 here is Katie Simpson asking a ridiculous question at the White House briefing room. 0.84
00:01:34.260 Sure. On tariffs. Yesterday in the Oval Office. Which outlet are you with? The Canadian Public
00:01:39.180 Broadcaster. Nice to see you. Thank you. Yesterday in the Oval Office, President Trump suggested that
00:01:44.440 there could be some help for automakers. I'm wondering what that looks like. Is it tariff relief on the 25%
00:01:50.340 of tariffs that are in place right now or the new tariffs that are coming up in May on auto parts?
00:01:55.480 And a second on Canada, if I may. President Trump's tone when it comes to Canada-U.S. relations.
00:02:00.880 Canadians have noticed it's shifted a bit in the past few weeks. Ever since the election campaign
00:02:06.440 started, he stopped talking about Canada becoming the 51st state, at least publicly. I'm wondering if
00:02:11.540 that's on purpose and why. I would reject the President's position on Canada has shifted.
00:02:16.360 Perhaps he just hasn't been asked about Canada by questions from this group in the Oval Office,
00:02:21.700 but they see him almost every day. But the President still maintains his position on Canada. The United
00:02:26.300 States has been subsidizing Canada's national defense, and he believes that Canadians would 0.96
00:02:31.000 benefit greatly from becoming the 51st state of the United States of America.
00:02:36.020 Obviously, Katie Simpson didn't even care about the first part of her question. Does she actually care 0.72
00:02:41.160 about the automakers? No. The purpose of her being here was really that second question,
00:02:46.760 which was a question effectively about nothing. Trump hasn't said something in a while. Will he
00:02:52.300 say it again? Could you really say 51st state into the microphone here? Because it would really help
00:02:57.760 out the Carney liberals. You see, Carney's sucking really bad right now on the campaign trail,
00:03:02.800 and his campaign's losing momentum. So, Levitt, could you please just say that in the microphone,
00:03:08.240 that you still want Canada to be the 51st state? We need some headlines that help out Carney right
00:03:13.000 now. That is all that it's about. You should be fired for doing something like this if you were
00:03:20.560 supposed to be an objective reporter. You were asking a question about Trump not saying something
00:03:27.220 for a few weeks. That's not a question. That's not anything. Again, do you know what this was meant
00:03:33.440 to do? Exactly what it did. I just typed in 51st state in Google a second ago, and look at this.
00:03:40.420 CBC, Trump still wants Canada to be as 51st state. The Wall Street Journal, White House brings back
00:03:46.740 Canada 51st state talk. They didn't bring it back. Katie Simpson brought it back. Global News,
00:03:51.400 Trump still wants Canada to be the 51st state. Free Press Journal, President Trump reiterates support
00:03:55.800 for 51st state. Vulture, a plea from a member of the 51st state. Oh, that's probably a different story.
00:04:01.260 CTV News, CTV News National, White House reiterates Trump's dream of annexing Canada. Even
00:04:06.420 Brian Lilly here from the Toronto Sun says, Carney campaign prayers answered with the latest 51st state
00:04:12.340 comment. Well, their prayers weren't answered. They were directly delivered, probably on request,
00:04:19.540 by Katie Simpson to them, asking a asinine question about, literally, I am repeating myself again,
00:04:27.520 but she's asking a question about something Trump didn't do, because she wants Levitt to say, oh,
00:04:35.500 we haven't changed, because what else is she going to say? She's just going to repeat the last thing
00:04:38.820 Trump said. And then Carney gets to put out a bunch of new emails to his supporters and gain some more
00:04:44.400 donations saying, we have to vote liberal right now, or Trump's super going to annex us this this time,
00:04:50.300 even though the fact the question was asked proves the fact that Trump doesn't really care that much,
00:04:54.640 because he hasn't been talking about that much. You think if he wanted to annex Canada, he would be
00:04:59.920 talking about it every single day. Because obviously, that's a big issue. And you'd have to
00:05:04.860 put a lot of pressure on it in order to get what you want. One, Trump doesn't want it to he would
00:05:10.280 never get it. And three, even if he wanted to get it, you wouldn't be going about it the way he is
00:05:14.780 in terms of talking about it briefly, and then never mentioning it again for an entire month.
00:05:19.220 Not how it works. But again, with all of the bad press going on right now for Mark Carney,
00:05:26.200 all of his candidacies dropping, the operative scandals, there's this new one where Juno News
00:05:31.580 has all of these messages that Ryan Turnbull was sending to friends and whatnot, using F slurs and
00:05:39.160 other sorts of slurs against gay people. And that guy has somehow not been dropped as a liberal
00:05:44.400 candidate yet. All this stuff is really bad. They need some 51st state talk out there. And I can tell
00:05:50.700 you, it does work on a lot of people. I've been out in Nepean helping Barbara Ball campaign just for
00:05:57.220 the last day, I'm going to be doing it for the rest of this week. And it's actually a very competitive
00:06:01.140 riding for the conservatives, despite the fact that Barbara Ball is facing off with Mark Carney
00:06:05.800 himself in Nepean. I was just in yesterday, a polling area, where last election, it was only
00:06:13.120 like 18% of the vote that the conservatives got there. It's a lower turnout area, to be fair. But
00:06:18.080 the conservatives only got 18% of the vote in this poll area. At the same time, the conservatives were
00:06:25.160 actually probably around 50-50 there. Maybe you would give Carney the edge, give him 60-40 in this poll
00:06:31.120 area. Considering the conservatives got clobbered in this area last election, this is a knife fight
00:06:36.280 election. But I will tell you, there are certain older Canadians who are very driven by the idea that
00:06:42.480 I'm voting liberal to show Trump, even though it means nothing. And I always make the point to people,
00:06:47.820 and by the way, if you're door knocking, here's a good tip. If people bring up Trump in the 51st state
00:06:52.540 in protecting Canada, bring up the fact that didn't the liberals destroy the economy for the past 10 years?
00:06:58.620 Didn't they raise crime for the last 10 years? They've been making it systematically easier to
00:07:03.540 take over Canada, if Trump even wanted to. So when you have Carney getting mad at Trump for making
00:07:10.220 silly comments, at the same time, he won't even reduce taxes significantly. Who's the one who doesn't
00:07:15.620 actually care about Canada here? Oh, well, Trump's putting tariffs on us. Well, we've been basically
00:07:19.920 tariffing our own economy through massive corporate taxes and income taxes and regulations for years.
00:07:25.420 And for some reason, that didn't bother people. But as soon as Trump puts tariffs on and takes
00:07:29.960 them off and puts them on again, then takes them off for good. That's a bigger crime against humanity
00:07:34.800 than literally hollowing our own economy. But yeah, that's pretty much it for there. I absolutely
00:07:41.900 despise the CBC. The conservatives, if they get in, if they have a minority government, I understand
00:07:47.560 in that first minority government term, which probably only lasts for a year and a half before they call a
00:07:52.540 new election to get a majority. They're not going to be touching the CBC right away. They need a
00:07:56.720 majority to do it. But if they get it and they don't pull the trigger, that would be unforgivable.
00:08:01.740 They need the CBC to go. They need all of the corporate media subsidies to go. Guess what? No,
00:08:08.960 you can do to replace it. Just make it that there is a special media tax bracket. If you're a media
00:08:14.860 company, you only pay 5% taxes and that's it. Because we understand it's hard to make money in media.
00:08:20.460 Everything's very hit and miss. Sometimes when you're getting off the ground as a media company,
00:08:24.460 it's years before you have enough subscribers that you're even able to pay yourself. I've been in
00:08:29.320 media. I think this is the first year I can even generate anything with a channel that could actually
00:08:34.220 be considered an income. I was doing this for four years without making a cent. And it takes a long
00:08:39.480 time for people to even understand you enough to trust you and watch you. But so I get it. But the
00:08:45.760 thing is, if the CBC keeps its money, this is what they're going to do every election cycle. They are
00:08:51.800 not sycophants for the government. They are sycophants for governments who will give them even more
00:08:55.640 money. So they'll be maybe a little bit nicer to the conservatives when they first get in. At the same
00:09:01.160 time, they will start absolutely ripping them to shreds like they did with Harper with the Mike Duffy
00:09:06.500 story in 2015, when they see an opportunity to get a government in who's going to dump even more
00:09:11.060 money on them. You got to cut them off or you are going to keep having problems. Anyways, so that's
00:09:17.120 it for me today, guys. Make sure to like the video, subscribe to the channel, leave a comment, do all
00:09:21.780 that great stuff. And I will be back with another video later today, if not another two. I'm going to
00:09:27.400 make sure to get them all done now so I have time later in the day to go door knocking for Barbara Ball 0.83
00:09:32.000 because I'd love to see Mark Carney lose his seat on election night. See you guys later.
