00:00:00.000 did you ever think
00:00:06.400 four years ago five years ago that we would ever see censorship in our country
00:00:17.200 i didn't never ever ever dreamed that we would ever see any kind of censorship ever
00:00:27.360 in our country that's why i chose to build up my facebook platform because i figured at the time
00:00:37.220 when i first started doing this show four years ago i thought well whichever platform you know
00:00:42.160 and i only had like 1500 or 2000 followers on on the facebook page at that time and youtube
00:00:49.540 was not really a thing twitter at that time was not really a thing for me rumble i don't
00:00:55.660 even think was around yet it may have been but it was probably in its beta testing stages
00:01:00.160 and then it started and not just with social media but with government websites and websites
00:01:10.980 in general that once had the information you knew they had it because you had just seen it
00:01:17.060 and then you go back to it like three or four days later and it's gone it's gone it's just
00:01:21.920 completely eliminated and you start thinking to yourself am i crazy i'm sure i saw that on this
00:01:29.540 particular website and it's gone and so you think okay i'm not going to say anything to anybody about
00:01:35.980 this because i must be losing my mind or maybe i i had to have seen it someplace else but then it
00:01:42.960 came out that, yeah, they are badly, badly censoring things. Donald Trump dropped this video
00:01:52.920 a few days ago, I think two or three days after he was elected. And I want you guys to watch this
00:01:58.820 because it's pretty important. Free speech, then we just don't have a free country. It's as simple
00:02:06.520 as that. If this most fundamental right is allowed to perish, then the rest of our rights
00:02:12.340 and liberties will topple, just like dominoes, one by one. They'll go down. That's why today
00:02:18.600 I'm announcing my plan to shatter the left-wing censorship regime and to reclaim the right
00:02:25.680 to free speech for all Americans. And reclaim is a very important word in this case because
00:02:32.080 they've taken it away. In recent weeks, bombshell reports have confirmed that a sinister group of
00:02:38.360 deep state bureaucrats, Silicon Valley tyrants, left-wing activists, and depraved corporate news
00:02:45.220 media have been conspiring to manipulate and silence the American people. They have collaborated
00:02:52.740 to suppress vital information on everything from elections to public health. The censorship cartel
00:03:00.680 must be dismantled and destroyed, and it must happen immediately. And here is my plan. First,
00:03:08.840 within hours of my inauguration, I will sign an executive order banning any federal department
00:03:15.640 or agency from colluding with any organization, business, or person to censor, limit, categorize,
00:03:22.720 or impede the lawful speech of American citizens. I will then ban federal money from being used
00:03:30.220 to label domestic speech as mis or disinformation. And I will begin the process of identifying and
00:03:38.640 firing every federal bureaucrat who has engaged in domestic censorship, directly or indirectly,
00:03:46.060 whether they are the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Health, Human
00:03:51.160 Services, the FBI, the DOJ, no matter who they are. Second, I will order the Department of Justice
00:03:58.360 to investigate all parties involved in the new online censorship regime, which is absolutely
00:04:06.720 destructive and terrible, and to aggressively prosecute any and all crimes identified.
00:04:13.100 These include possible violations of federal civil rights law, campaign finance laws,
00:04:19.280 federal election law, securities law, and antitrust laws, the Hatch Act, and a host of
00:04:26.260 other potential criminal, civil, regulatory, and constitutional offenses. To assist in these
00:04:33.140 efforts, I am urging House Republicans to immediately send preservation letters, and we
00:04:40.180 have to do this right now, to the Biden administration, the Biden campaign, and every
00:04:45.240 Silicon Valley tech giant, ordering them not to destroy evidence of censorship. Third, upon my
00:04:52.580 inauguration as president, I will ask Congress to send a bill to my desk revising Section 230
00:04:59.280 to get big online platforms out of censorship business. From now on, digital platforms should
00:05:07.120 only qualify for immunity protection under Section 230 if they meet high standards of
00:05:12.960 neutrality, transparency, fairness, and non-discrimination. We should require these
00:05:19.240 platforms to increase their efforts to take down unlawful content such as child exploitation
00:05:26.900 and promoting terrorism while dramatically curtailing their power to arbitrarily restrict
00:05:33.600 lawful speech. Fourth, we need to break up the entire toxic censorship industry that has arisen
00:05:40.900 under the false guise of tackling so-called myths and disinformation. The federal government should
00:05:47.060 immediately stop funding all non-profits and academic programs that support this authoritarian
00:05:53.680 project. If any U.S. university has discovered to have engaged in censorship activities or
00:06:00.700 election interferences in the past, such as flagging social media content for removal of
00:06:07.780 blacklisting, those universities should lose federal research dollars and federal student
00:06:13.140 loan support for a period of five years and maybe more we should also enact new laws laying out clear
00:06:20.340 criminal penalties for federal bureaucrats who partner with private entities to do an end run
00:06:26.660 around the constitution and deprive americans of their first fourth and fifth amendment rights
00:06:33.460 in other words deprive them of their vote and once you lose those elections and once you lose
00:06:39.780 your borders like we have you no longer have a country furthermore to confront the problems of
00:06:46.100 major platforms being infiltrated by legions of former deep staters and intelligence officials
00:06:53.380 there should be a seven-year calling off period before any employee of the fbi cia nsa dni a dhs
00:07:03.060 or DOD is allowed to take a job at a company possessing vast quantities of U.S. user data.
00:07:11.920 Fifth, the time has finally come for Congress to pass a digital bill of rights.
00:07:17.120 This should include a right to digital due process.
00:07:21.380 In other words, government officials should need a court order to take down online content,
00:07:27.660 not send information requests such as the FBI was sending to Twitter.
00:07:33.060 Furthermore, when users of big online platforms have their content or accounts removed, throttled, shadow banned, or otherwise restricted, no matter what name they use, they should have the right to be informed that it's happening, the right to a specific explanation of the reason why, and the right to a timely appeal.
00:07:56.000 In addition, all users over the age of 18 should have the right to opt out of content, moderation, and curation entirely, and receive an unmanipulated stream of information if they so choose.
00:08:10.360 The fight for free speech is a matter of victory or death for America and for the survival of Western civilization itself.
00:08:18.080 When I am president, this whole rotten system of censorship and information control will be ripped out of the system at large.
00:08:27.200 There won't be anything left.
00:08:29.760 By restoring free speech, we'll begin to reclaim our democracy and save our nation.
00:08:35.280 Thank you and God bless America.
00:08:38.140 Okay.
00:08:40.740 Wow.
00:08:42.420 So without free speech, there is no freedom.
00:08:47.940 You can't fight back.
00:08:48.940 You can't say you can't do anything.
00:08:50.620 You're muffled. 1.00
00:08:51.200 You're muzzled. 0.99
00:08:51.780 You're thrown in a closet somewhere. 0.99
00:08:53.160 A gulag. 0.95
00:08:54.440 Left to rot there for the rest of your digital life
00:08:57.200 without ever being able to give your opinion.
00:09:03.440 That's what's going on these days.
00:09:05.580 And the Marxists had control of all the social media
00:09:08.880 until Elon Musk took over X, well, Twitter,
00:09:11.920 then renamed it X about a year and a half ago now.
00:09:14.640 that may happen in the united states trump certainly seems determined he's got control
00:09:23.320 of the senate and we found out later today the republicans will control the house so that's a
00:09:28.380 trifecta they'll be able to pass this through and social media companies should be quaking in their
00:09:35.160 boots right now they're not even going to be able to destroy evidence documents that show that they
00:09:41.380 were in collusion with federal alphabet agencies to do this censorship on people.
00:09:48.960 That's big. But what about Canada? Bill C-11, C-18, C-63, which may pass in the next few
00:09:59.540 months. These are all censorship, huge censorship laws and one bill that will cripple our free
00:10:09.720 speech not to mention the fact that justin trudeau continues to fund the left-wing corporate media
00:10:15.960 in order to get them to say what he wants them to say this is theresa tam
00:10:22.000 a few years ago had a discussion with facebook on how we can collaborate on removing information
00:10:29.180 that has been scientifically disproven or debunked so facebook is currently working
00:10:34.880 with the WHO, with the US CDC, and essentially trying to work with us. So they'll need some
00:10:43.020 experts to actually say, is this misinformation? If it's scientifically proven to be misinformation,
00:10:50.540 there's an opportunity for them to actually remove that information. And we're also working
00:10:54.640 with Google and others. And so I think that a lot of people criticize social media companies for not
00:11:01.120 doing enough. But I think that we're all trying to figure out what more we can do together.
00:11:06.740 So another thing that I thought about is a coalition of public health partners so that we
00:11:12.840 can retweet and read forward our collective information in the same way that the anti-vaccination
00:11:21.720 group has been doing. And this could be an international collaboration as well.
00:11:27.360 We need to collaborate across government departments because there are other government departments sort of interested in impacts on the elections, impacts on combating extremism.
00:11:39.760 What a vile piece of filth talking about censoring and not just in Canada, but we could collaborate with all these other countries in the world against myths and disinformation.
00:11:52.120 First of all, those terms never, ever should have been brought out by any agency at any time.
00:12:03.660 It gives the government the right to tell us what's what, to tell us what's real and what's not.
00:12:13.280 At least they think it does.
00:12:14.520 but with trudeau's regime the way he's got it set up and if bill c63 passes then he gets his way
00:12:22.980 people are suggesting that with trump doing what he's doing in the united states
00:12:29.640 canada will have to follow suit that's not the case at all
00:12:33.040 these social media companies are subject to the laws of the countries that they operate in even
00:12:39.340 though they originate in the united states if they are going to operate in canada then they
00:12:46.000 have to follow canadian law much like elon musk had to do with brazil the country shut him down
00:12:52.920 there because he refused to censor eventually he did capitulate and censored a few accounts the
00:12:58.320 government and the judiciary there wanted him to censor i'm surprised he did that but he did
00:13:02.220 and i suppose it was because brazil is a huge country and he was losing hundreds of millions
00:13:08.380 of dollars by not operating there. So would there be a way for Trump and his team, J.D. Vance and
00:13:21.560 all the rest, to get other countries, civilized countries, democratic nations,
00:13:28.980 to capitulate and get rid of this censorship industrial network? Here's J.D. Vance.
00:13:38.380 exactly which official it was within the European Union but sent Elon this threatening letter that
00:13:44.880 basically said, we're going to arrest you if you platform Donald Trump, who by the way is the likely
00:13:51.600 next president of the United States. So what America should be saying is, oh, if NATO wants us
00:13:57.460 to continue supporting them and NATO wants us to continue to be a good participant in this military
00:14:03.000 alliance. Why don't you respect American values and respect free speech? Excuse me. It's insane
00:14:08.760 that we would support a military alliance if that military alliance isn't going to be pro-free
00:14:13.960 speech. I think we can do both, but we've got to say American power comes with certain strings
00:14:18.540 attached. One of those is respect free speech, especially in our European allies. Like, look,
00:14:23.960 I'm not going to go to some backwoods country and tell them how to live their lives,
00:14:27.760 but European countries should theoretically share American values, especially about
00:14:32.700 some very basic things like free speech uh jd forgot to mention canada european countries great
00:14:40.860 sure but what about your neighbor to the north we're in just as much trouble as those other
00:14:47.420 countries you talked about and we could use your help wouldn't it be hilarious if the united states
00:14:53.720 says hey look you know what um if you guys continue on this censorship path then we're just
00:14:59.980 going to throw up some massive massive massive tariffs on you and anything you want to import
00:15:06.760 into our country 25 50 75 percent i wouldn't put it past them or we're just going to withdraw
00:15:14.480 funding from nato or we're just going to withdraw funding from the united nations
00:15:20.240 that will make them sit up and take notice now when we say that this this this has been
00:15:30.960 one of the tenets of the new world order of the globalists is keeping information suppressed
00:15:37.460 keeping it hidden from us anybody who wants to talk about anything or even challenge an argument
00:15:42.620 rather whether it has to do with climate change or whether it has to do with
00:15:45.980 trans or anything, has been shut down, vilified, pilloried.
00:15:52.160 We become persona non grata online, anyhow.
00:15:58.720 And these days, it seems that that's how the large percentage of us communicate with each other,
00:16:04.840 through social media.
00:16:07.820 So wouldn't it be something if Donald Trump said to Justin Trudeau,
00:16:12.720 by the way, if you don't get rid of this censorship, then we're going to have to reduce trade
00:16:19.920 with you. We're going to increase tariffs and you lose all military protection from
00:16:25.080 us. And you're going to take all of these refugees as well. I don't know. I think it 1.00
00:16:40.580 would be a brilliant plan. And if Trump is serious about getting rid of this censorship regime,
00:16:46.540 that would be definitely a way to do it.
