I missed you 0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:13.240 all very much. Although I did, I did here as 0:01:13.240 --> 0:01:16.600 always that my main man, Raheim did a fantastic job 0:01:16.640 --> 0:01:19.360 in for me. So I'm really glad that you guys 0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:24.319 are enjoying the Some of the new guests we're gonna have, 0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:27.000 guest hosts we're gonna have in the rotation, Rahim of 0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:29.960 course high up on that list. With the holidays coming, 0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:32.360 might even have some other some other new special exciting 0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:34.440 folks who knows. I like to keep you all on 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:39.119 your toes. Um, But I was out in Springfield, Illinois, 0:01:39.680 --> 0:01:44.319 landa Lincoln. It was Um, it was really fun. I 0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:47.200 gotta speak some really great Republicans. You know that that 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:53.160 part of Illinois, Sangamon County is pretty red, which is nice. 0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:55.560 It's like, Oh, I'm on I'm on home turf here, 0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:59.160 home team. I'm so used to living among the LIB 0:01:59.240 --> 0:02:00.960 team that when I when I go to a place 0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:06.120 where there are conservatives with our Republicans, like wow, So 0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:08.079 this is what America feels like for a lot of people. 0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:10.160 I'm so used to walking around like, oh, is that 0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:13.200 Antifa around the corner? All No, I have to always 0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:16.440 keep that in mind. I've got some really interesting stuff 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:18.280 to get into together today. Obviously, gonna get a chance 0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:22.000 talk to you yesterday. Some updates on the Georgia and 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:24.480 Florida races, which are still the twenty t mid term 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:28.600 still going on. Haven't figured that out, Stacy Abrams. Apparently 0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:31.640 we're gonna Phil Kirpin join us to really walk through 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:35.280 exactly what's because he's all over this election low stuff, 0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:37.840 and he'll give you the full run. You'll know more 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:39.079 to listen to that guy than I think you will 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:42.040 listen to. There's very few people that really drill down 0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:43.839 into the way that he does that I see out there. 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:49.200 But Stacy Abrams is she said she can't defeat Kemp 0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:54.040 in Georgia, but she also plans to sue to essentially 0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:58.080 get a totally new election. I mean, this is just crazy. 0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:02.000 This is a whole this is a whole other level 0:03:02.800 --> 0:03:07.600 of Shenanigan, a whole other level of Shenanigan's from the 0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:11.360 from the Democrats. So not really not really all that surprising, 0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:13.280 but nonetheless, this is this is what they do that, 0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:19.080 this is you could say, how they roll. Uh. And 0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:21.320 then in Florida, obviously there's still all kinds of stuff 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:24.640 going on there that we will discuss. We got the caravan, 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:27.560 whereas the caravan going, what's going on? Any of the 0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.000 big news for today, and I will discuss with you, 0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:31.760 And don't get in a little bit of the it's 0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:34.880 not a legal opinion, that's a final it's a preliminary 0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:38.600 legal injunction. I'll get into it. But Jim Acosta gets 0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:42.720 his pass back. Oh you know, Son now has fifty 0:03:42.760 --> 0:03:45.600 one people with White House passes. Oh my Oh, good heavens, 0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:49.280 the Republic was in jeopardy before they were all so 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.880 upset about it. Oh, it's terrible. Look, I'm I'm not 0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:55.440 with not all conservatives with me on this. I know 0:03:55.520 --> 0:03:59.080 that you know, Fox News actually back to Costa up 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:02.480 in this one. So and I'm not perfect, I'm a 0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:06.080 human being. So the fact that Acosta is an untalented 0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:11.440 clown um definitely probably weighs in on my definitely probably 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:15.080 oh man spoken like a spoken like a liberal pund 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:18.640 to definitely probably uh ways on my judgment of how 0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:22.760 acceptable or unacceptable what he did really is. So I 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.000 will admit that, I mean, well, what he did was 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:27.560 jerk stuff. I'm not saying that, you know, the jerk 0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:30.120 store called and they say they're running out of Acosta. So, 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:33.479 but what I mean is that the procedural reality of 0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:35.880 Kenny be kicked out. Well, we'll get into all that, 0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:37.840 because this is the biggest new store of the day, 0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:39.839 the biggest new story of the day, only because it 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:43.479 involves the media. And I try to be self aware 0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:46.440 about this because technically, yeah, I know, and some of 0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:48.440 the some of the emails like you're in the media, yeah, 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.120 but like not really, you know, I mean, yeah, but 0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:55.400 kinda I'm I'm I'm some other some other type. I'm 0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:59.680 not your your typical media dude. Um certainly didn't go 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:03.479 to a school. So we'll get into some of that, 0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:05.200 but it's because it involves the media. The media cares 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:06.719 about it so much, but it really cares. And we'll 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:08.080 make fun of a cost a little bit. They'll be 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:11.360 good times. Oh. Also, Kamala Harris thinks that people should know. 0:05:11.400 --> 0:05:14.200 I mean, she's not saying it, she just wants people 0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:16.599 to know what a congressional hearing death. You know, Democrats 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:19.520 kind of think that immigrations and customs enforcement is the KKK, 0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:22.719 you know, kind of kind of similar. She's not saying that, 0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:24.719 she says it. She just wants ever to know that 0:05:24.720 --> 0:05:29.320 she hears people saying it. If you you can't make it, 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:31.120 you can't make this stuff up. This is this is 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:33.159 who wants to run the country. By the way, these 0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:35.839 the Democrats, I think they should be in charge. But 0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:38.159 all right, so I think this is actually a much 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.720 more interesting story than any of that, which is why 0:05:40.760 --> 0:05:43.800 I'm I'm starting it off with this today. And it's 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:47.040 actually a New York Times piece and it's called a 0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:54.680 look inside the tactics of Definers, Facebook's attack dog. Now, yeah, 0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:56.400 you have to get into weeds a little bit on 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:58.840 this one for it to really the full impact at home. 0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:02.160 But let me let me walk you through this. So 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:07.839 Facebook hired this group called Definers Public Affairs, and their 0:06:07.880 --> 0:06:11.880 whole thing is that they yeah, they working in PR, 0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:14.680 but it's kind of aggressive PR. It's really more propaganda 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:20.440 for hires. So Facebook hires this this group, and they, 0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:26.640 for example, compile information on senators that's derogatory information about 0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:32.640 particularly their use of Facebook. Um. But they they use 0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:37.960 software tally what the fifteen members of the intelligence community 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:41.520 used to track visitors to their Senate websites. They also 0:06:41.560 --> 0:06:44.360 looked at how much easy or rather how much each 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:47.000 senator spent on Facebook ads, and how much they received 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:51.240 in campaign donations from Facebook. So they're doing OPO research 0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:56.919 on senators right for Facebook at Facebook's BEHS, right before 0:06:57.000 --> 0:07:02.520 Facebook is going down to testify on Capitol Hill about 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:07.880 how according to Cheryl Sandberg, the ce chief operating a 0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:11.560 chief operating officer rather obviously Zuckerberg's CEO, they want to 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:15.120 work with senators, right, They wanted to work with the 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:18.400 Senate Committee but oh wait, they were compiling oppo research 0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:21.480 on those senators. That's that doesn't seem like a very 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:27.280 good faith action, does it. And they're tracking the tools 0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:30.680 that senter websites you So what they're essentially saying is 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.960 you want to regulate Facebook, but you use Facebook, so 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:40.440 you're a hypocrite, Senators. Okay, this is and by the way, Facebook, 0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:42.280 since this has come out, it's completely backed off and 0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:43.680 be like, oh, we we don't want to do that. 0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:45.840 We you know, we don't want to be involved in 0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:48.960 that kind of stuff. Yeah, that's that's what we thought. 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:54.400 It's a feeling and a feeling, that's the case. So 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.240 you look a little deeper into it though, and the 0:07:57.280 --> 0:08:01.320 way they went about this is particularly interesting. Definers. Remember 0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:08.240 Facebook hires definers to compile opo research on senators who 0:08:08.320 --> 0:08:11.560 are going to be in a committee with a senior 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:14.160 Facebook officer talking about, you know, what they could do 0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:17.320 about Russia collusion stuff and and should they be regulated 0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:20.360 and so you know, they're basical getting ready to go 0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:22.960 to war with the Senate if they have to in 0:08:23.080 --> 0:08:28.240 public and public relations stuff. And then there's some more 0:08:28.280 --> 0:08:30.559 details for I think conference thing about this, so quote 0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:36.200 Facebook initially hired definers this this PR group to monitor 0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:39.560 news about the social network. It's really a private intelligence firm. 0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:41.800 By the way, it's really not a PR. Private intelligence 0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:44.240 is the way we should describe as it expanded its 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:48.040 relationship with the firm. When scrutinyum Facebook was increasing over 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.120 how Russian agents had used this site to sow discord 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:57.280 before the United States election. Should be discord, discord or discord? 0:08:57.960 --> 0:09:00.760 I probably say that one wrong define has began doing 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:04.600 some general communications work. Blah BiH blah. It also undertook 0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:08.360 more covert effort to spread the blame for the rise 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:12.760 of Russian disinformation, pointing other fingers, pointing fingers that other 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:17.800 companies like Google, Oh wow, you mean Facebook, which just 0:09:17.880 --> 0:09:20.760 wants to be your buddy and it's such a great, wonderful, friendly, 0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:26.520 big hug of a company hired another company to spread 0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:31.679 disinformation about that company. When it came to who's responsible 0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:38.240 for Russian disinformation? This informazia, I don't know. I don't 0:09:38.240 --> 0:09:40.079 speak Russian. Some of you do. You're always like buck, 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:42.320 your emphasis is on the wrong sillaball. That's probably true, 0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:44.760 But this I just like to say it, like my 0:09:44.840 --> 0:09:49.880 name isia. Then it sounds close enough right, or is 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:56.000 its Informazia. I'll keep switching syllables till I get it right. 0:09:57.200 --> 0:09:59.360 It goes on, though, folks. Not just trying to throw 0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:02.040 Google onto the bus here. Facebook hired this private intel 0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:03.880 firm to do the following quote. A key part of 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:09.560 Definer's strategy was nt K Network, a website that appeared 0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:12.160 to be a run of the mill news aggregator with 0:10:12.280 --> 0:10:16.760 a right wing slant. In fact, many of nt k's 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:21.560 news stories were written by employers employees rather at Definers 0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:25.760 and America Rising, a sister firm to criticize rivals of 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:28.880 their clients. According to one former employee not allowed to 0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:36.440 speak publicly, Folks, Facebook hired a private intel firm to 0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:40.920 spread fake news about the fake news that was spread 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:48.000 by the Russians. You can't make this up. They appeared 0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:53.200 to be conservative. They're they're spoofing conservative websites affect a 0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:57.200 conservative opinion in order to throw people off the scent 0:10:57.320 --> 0:11:01.320 of how responsible Facebook was for this. This is pretty 0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:03.640 I mean, come on, this is pretty amazing, right. Think 0:11:03.679 --> 0:11:08.240 about this for a second, um, And they went after people. 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:12.199 Quote in an email days before the hearing, a definer's employee, 0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:15.040 Press of Times reporter to write that Facebook was talking 0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:19.560 to senators talking taking the senator's concerned seriously, while Google 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:25.000 was irresponsible. The day before the hearing, this fake news 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:28.880 network that was actually this definer's group hired by Facebook, 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:32.160 said that Senator Marco Rubio had suggested that Google was 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:36.120 possibly a monopoly. The next day, shortly after hearing ended, 0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:39.720 Anti k Network posted another story highlighting Rubio's criticism of 0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:44.880 Google during the hearing. My friends, Facebook hired this company 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:49.440 to spread fake news about senators while they're meeting with 0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:53.959 senators to discuss the problem of fake news. Come on, people, 0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:58.840 this is beautiful, right, this is amazing Silicon Valley. They're 0:11:58.840 --> 0:12:01.960 all a bunch of libs. You can't trust them. Can't 0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:06.240 trust the libs that you know. This, can't trust the 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:09.640 Libs should be a song. I should write a song 0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:13.480 called Can't Trust the Libs. And then it goes even 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:17.080 a little deep. But this gets even more interesting. Definers 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:20.599 distributed memos that sought to layout evidence for angles that 0:12:20.640 --> 0:12:23.200 it wanted reporters to pursue, According to The New York Times. Here, 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:26.920 the memos were typically based on public information etcetera, etcetera. 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:33.800 Definers urged reporters to explore the financial ties between Mr Soros, 0:12:34.120 --> 0:12:38.160 that that Judge Soros, Hello Sotos is here, and Freedom 0:12:38.200 --> 0:12:42.200 from Facebook, a coalition of groups that had criticized Facebook. 0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:45.680 The idea was to persuade reporters that the coalition was 0:12:45.720 --> 0:12:48.120 not a sincere movement of like minded groups, rather an 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:53.400 orchestrated campaign by a rich partisan opponent. A two page 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:56.880 document that Definers distributed about Freedom from Facebook noted that 0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:00.000 at least four of the groups and the coalition received 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:04.280 funding or are aligned with George Soros, who has publicly 0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:08.679 criticized Facebook. The four groups named the document appear to 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.559 have received do appear to receive funding from Soros is 0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:20.280 open Society Foundations. That's right there, blaming Soros. Facebook blames 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:26.480 Sorrows for for some of its public relations woes. Uh. 0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:30.000 It says that these these anti Facebook groups are receiving 0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:32.839 their funding from Sorrows. Wait I thought I thought saying 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:36.080 that you received funding from Sorrows was anti semitic. That's 0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:38.200 what That's what we're being told by journals like a 0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:42.720 week ago. But now Facebook will do that. So so 0:13:42.800 --> 0:13:44.880 somebody tell me, what are the new rules here when 0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:50.360 a bunch of Silicon Valley libs with tremendous UH resources 0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:54.040 and reach and power Facebook and others, when they say, 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:58.080 but Sorrows is behind this stuff? Is that anti semitic? 0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:01.439 Or is that okay? You mean that Soros actually does 0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:03.600 fund a lot of these groups to make it seem 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:07.520 like they're more grassroots and organic than they are and 0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:11.240 that they're pushing a left wing agenda or in this case, 0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:13.840 is just an anti Facebook agenda and they're willing to 0:14:13.880 --> 0:14:18.920 pretend it's coming from fake conservative groups. By the way, 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:20.840 we we we weren't supposed to find out about any 0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:24.760 of this. This all just came out. If this is 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:27.000 what's going on in this one case, what else do 0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:30.720 you think Facebook is up to? You know, I've been 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:33.360 telling you for a while. Those you listen have been listening, 0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:35.440 have been with me for a while. It's only a 0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:41.160 matter of time before you see the weaponization of social 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:46.520 media platforms not just for propaganda purposes, but to target individuals. 0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:51.880 Facebook and Google and Twitter, these places they have information 0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:56.800 on so many people, and people use them for private conversations, 0:14:56.880 --> 0:15:01.040 for sensitive business conversations. They probably shouldn't, but everybody does 0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:06.320 because it's so convenient. There will be a time mark 0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:08.560 my words. There will be a time and it might 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:13.520 be when, at a critical moment, one of these social 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:17.400 media companies will say, you know what, we have this information. 0:15:18.040 --> 0:15:20.840 We just have terms of service. We're not contractually bound 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:25.880 to keep it all secret. And here's what candidate so 0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:29.640 and so was saying to his mistress, you know, before 0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:32.600 he visited his you know, his wife at the hospital 0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:37.920 or something. I mean, that's gonna happen. That is going 0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:43.360 to happen, and that I think is something that you know, 0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:47.760 we we all need to be very aware of. Here. Um, 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:49.840 and we got more on this and uh and a 0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:51.800 whole on more. We'll talk about the accost of situation 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:55.360 and all that coming up. So stay with me. In 0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:57.800 the midst of all the whining coming from the left, 0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:00.960 I mean, it's just crazy these days. They're chasing people 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:03.920 out of restaurants, yelling at you in the coffee shop, 0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:06.440 acting like a bunch of maniacs. You have to wonder 0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:09.200 why in the world would anyone act this way. My 0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:11.480 guess is they're just not getting their daily dose and 0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:15.200 black rifle coffee. I drink black Rifle every morning. In fact, 0:16:15.280 --> 0:16:17.640 it's such delicious coffee that I'm usually a guy that 0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:20.360 likes a little can lache in my coffee. But guess what, 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:23.080 I drink it black because it's Black Rifle for one. 0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:27.640 And also this is delicious, small batch, roast to order coffee. Alright, 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:30.040 I am a salente for smooth blond guy, but their 0:16:30.280 --> 0:16:34.360 entire catalog of different beans and blends is amazing. Black 0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:37.080 Rifle is roaster order and is guaranteed fresh right to 0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:40.320 your door. Nothing cures a bad attitude like starting your 0:16:40.360 --> 0:16:43.400 day with the most American coffee ever, Black Rifle Coffee. 0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:46.520 Visit black Rifle Coffee dot com. Slash buck received fifteen 0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:49.960 percent off your order. That's Black Rifle Coffee dot com 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:53.040 slash Buck for fifteen percent off Black Rifle Coffee dot 0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:58.720 com slash Buck. Okay, before we get into a Costa's 0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:00.960 hard pass, which every and now the media is obsessed 0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:03.480 with a lot of you like Buck. Who cares? I know, 0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:06.160 but this is one of these problems where I can't 0:17:06.160 --> 0:17:08.159 determine the news cycle right and I can't be my 0:17:08.200 --> 0:17:12.040 own final news gathering organization. You know, you know the 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:14.119 Freedom Hunt reports, you know, I mean, I did other 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:16.159 people to actually do some reporting too. I can't just 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:19.280 pull it all together myself. Um. I mean I can 0:17:19.320 --> 0:17:23.119 tell you what it was like at the airport in 0:17:23.119 --> 0:17:25.760 Illinois at five am this morning. I mean, you know, 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:28.760 that was exciting. But other than that, I've been in 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:31.920 the air most of today. Um. But we'll talk about 0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:33.159 the cost of thing a little bit. Then we'll move 0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:35.040 on to areas that I think matter more to you. 0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:37.360 What's going on the Muller pro what's going on with immigration, 0:17:37.800 --> 0:17:40.720 the elections Florida, Georgia. So we'll cover all that, all 0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:42.280 that good stuff, and then we'll send you off with 0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:45.280 some fantastic roll call and chit chat and the most 0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:48.720 important question the moment, which is should pickles be on burgers, 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:52.960 not next to them? On them? We'll get into that. 0:17:53.440 --> 0:17:55.360 But I saw this, and this is just a reminder 0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:59.400 of how skewed these social media platforms have become. This woman, 0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:01.520 Megan Murph, I don't know who she is. I think 0:18:01.560 --> 0:18:03.639 she's a liberal tho. I think she's a lib. She 0:18:03.720 --> 0:18:06.160 calls herself a pinko and her Twitter bios I think 0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:09.640 that's a lip thing. It's basically saying she is a comedy. 0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:13.560 She and she's a feminist. She got in trouble with Twitter. 0:18:13.640 --> 0:18:16.520 She Twitter Center. This was on Twitter today. She got 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:19.520 a note from them saying that you are violating our 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:22.399 rules against hateful conduct. This is official from Twitter. Do 0:18:22.440 --> 0:18:26.800 you know what she said? How are trans women not men? 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:29.680 What is the difference between a man and a trans woman? 0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:35.920 And then said men aren't women? I am not exaggerating, 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:39.560 I am not making this up. I am not taking 0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:44.600 it out of context. It is now considered a violation 0:18:44.800 --> 0:18:51.200 of twitters terms of service to state the following men 0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:56.960 are not women. Let that sink in for a moment. 0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:01.480 You can be deep platformed, you can be called out 0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:07.280 for abusive behavior and violation of rules for saying that 0:19:07.359 --> 0:19:11.280 men are not women. I don't think I don't think 0:19:11.320 --> 0:19:12.720 that it's too much to say that we're living in 0:19:12.800 --> 0:19:17.639 some kind of bizarro left wing delusion now, because I'm 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:19.679 gonna go, I'm gonna go on record. I'm not afraid 0:19:19.720 --> 0:19:22.520 to say it. I don't care who yells a better. 0:19:23.240 --> 0:19:27.920 I'm darn sure that men are not women. That this 0:19:28.000 --> 0:19:30.480 is a thing that you and I know, And I 0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:33.359 don't care how many progressives, how many on the left, 0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:45.160 how many Democrats, try to tell me otherwise. Great day 0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:48.680 for the first eventment in journalism. Very excited to happen 0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:50.920 his prepossibly be able to go back and get his 0:19:51.000 --> 0:19:54.640 heart passive report the news about the White House. I'll 0:19:54.680 --> 0:19:57.480 turn it over to Jim. Thank you, Hi, everybody, thanks 0:19:57.480 --> 0:19:59.959 for coming. I just want to say something very briefly, 0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:02.000 and that is I want to thank all of my 0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:05.479 colleagues and the press who supported us this week. And 0:20:05.520 --> 0:20:07.600 I want to thank the judge for the decision he 0:20:07.680 --> 0:20:14.320 made today and let's go back to work. Acosta got 0:20:14.320 --> 0:20:19.800 his hard passed back. Man. I gotta tell you this 0:20:19.880 --> 0:20:24.080 one is this one is annoying. This decision is annoying. 0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:33.119 Acosta is annoying this whole, this whole thing. Man. So 0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:35.520 let's just like, let's take a little trip down, a 0:20:35.520 --> 0:20:37.119 little trip down, well at all. Before we take a 0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:39.320 trip down memory land, I'll tell you what happened. So 0:20:39.400 --> 0:20:42.600 you had a judge issue a preliminary injunction today, federal judge. 0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:46.480 It's a Trump appointee. And the longer and short of 0:20:46.520 --> 0:20:49.560 it is, he said on fit Amendment do process grounds, 0:20:51.560 --> 0:20:54.080 they must give a Coste his press pass back because 0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:57.320 you know, inhibits him from reporting and blabity blah First 0:20:57.320 --> 0:21:00.360 Amendment stuff, but he didn't make it clear for Amendment 0:21:00.480 --> 0:21:03.600 ruling as to whether or not they could restrict his 0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:06.400 access based upon how much of a jerky's being because 0:21:06.440 --> 0:21:09.280 he's definitely being a jerk, but the judge didn't really 0:21:09.280 --> 0:21:11.399 weigh in on that one. The judge says there's a 0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:15.640 lack of due process here um and and what that 0:21:15.720 --> 0:21:22.280 means now is that Acosta, the hero of the resistance, 0:21:22.359 --> 0:21:25.760 left the well. This guy has never said an interesting, 0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:28.480 smart or witty thing on his life on television, and 0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:31.960 it's just he's he's one of these guys who would 0:21:31.960 --> 0:21:37.480 be lucky to be like the local news anchor in 0:21:38.440 --> 0:21:45.720 some you know, small town in Massachusetts. And yet now 0:21:45.800 --> 0:21:49.080 he's this guy who's the First Amendment martyr for CNN. 0:21:49.240 --> 0:21:53.400 It's just so frustrating. But you know, look that they 0:21:53.520 --> 0:21:55.720 the problem here is that they didn't have the due 0:21:55.720 --> 0:21:59.240 process concerned. And there's a previous court ruling from I 0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:01.879 think back in the Set and Easy that that somehow 0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:05.520 influence that influences this decision. They do. Process component of 0:22:05.520 --> 0:22:08.200 it is well, there's not rules and so it's arbitrary 0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:11.119 and they have to give him the right to respond. 0:22:11.160 --> 0:22:14.680 They have to give him essentially written notice. Um. I mean, 0:22:14.720 --> 0:22:17.600 I I complete just for the I completely disagree with this. 0:22:17.760 --> 0:22:21.199 I mean, I think it's crap. Whether on a on 0:22:21.240 --> 0:22:25.080 a purely procedural basis, this judge ruled the right way. 0:22:25.119 --> 0:22:28.120 I mean this, this is it's getting down into the weeds. Oh, 0:22:28.160 --> 0:22:31.960 it's not a final ruling, its preliminary injunction. Um. But 0:22:32.000 --> 0:22:33.560 you know, because what I say is all right, So 0:22:33.600 --> 0:22:35.960 there's not official rules. If a Costas stood up and 0:22:36.000 --> 0:22:38.880 started just screaming curses at the president, they wouldn't give 0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:40.680 him written notice. They would just escort him out of 0:22:40.720 --> 0:22:42.720 the room and take away his hard pass and take 0:22:42.760 --> 0:22:44.679 away his access to the White House. Can they not 0:22:44.800 --> 0:22:47.920 do that? Oh, I'm sorry. They have to give him 0:22:48.200 --> 0:22:52.960 written notice of that. They they have to say, Mr Costa, 0:22:53.040 --> 0:22:55.400 you have violated the following rules and then let him 0:22:55.480 --> 0:22:58.840 respond in writing. I mean, you know, at some point 0:22:58.840 --> 0:23:01.440 the process. And by the way, there's a lot of 0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:05.280 abuse of this due process concept. Now, whenever there's anything 0:23:05.280 --> 0:23:07.040 that can be done to stick a thumb in the 0:23:07.040 --> 0:23:08.800 eye of the Trump administration, you see a lot of this. 0:23:10.280 --> 0:23:15.960 So huh. Obviously, very very frustrating. But Trump is saying, 0:23:15.960 --> 0:23:19.760 and now they're gonna write up rules on decorum so 0:23:19.800 --> 0:23:23.200 that they have a codified Hey, don't be a jerk 0:23:23.280 --> 0:23:30.920 like a costa system in place, play Levin John regulation 0:23:31.080 --> 0:23:35.080 three US Decora, you can't take three questions and four 0:23:35.200 --> 0:23:37.719 questions and you just stand up and not sit down. Decora, 0:23:37.840 --> 0:23:41.200 you have to practice Dacora. You were there, You understood, 0:23:41.240 --> 0:23:45.080 and you understand. We want uh total freedom of the press. 0:23:45.119 --> 0:23:47.160 That's very important because they it's more important to mean 0:23:47.200 --> 0:23:51.120 than anybody would believe. But you have to act with respect. 0:23:51.160 --> 0:23:53.280 You're in the White House, and when I see the 0:23:53.320 --> 0:23:56.480 way some of my people get treated at press conference 0:23:56.560 --> 0:24:01.120 isn't terrible. So we're setting up a certain standard, which 0:24:01.160 --> 0:24:05.040 is what the court is requesting. And always free to 0:24:05.040 --> 0:24:08.560 the press, always first Amendment. But that's the way it is. 0:24:08.720 --> 0:24:12.080 And we always have the option of just leaving, you know, 0:24:12.560 --> 0:24:16.160 we feel that things aren't being treated properly, that people 0:24:16.200 --> 0:24:19.400 aren't being treated properly, we always have the right to leave. 0:24:19.560 --> 0:24:22.639 And I think the other media, the other press in 0:24:22.680 --> 0:24:24.560
