And it was 4 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: a big night for Donald Trump's agenda all over the country. Now, 5 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: if you are a anti Trump person, a GOP establishment member, 6 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: you're not happy right now.

Voters in Indiana in Ohio, 14 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: we'll decide who will represent them in November's intelection. The 15 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,639 Speaker 1: primaries and both states on Tuesday, that's what they had 16 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: to look at and setting the tone in particular for 17 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: the few or the Republican Party and for Donald Trump. 18 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: That's what those primaries were really all about. How big 19 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: is Donald Trump's indorsement strength? Is it big? Is it little? 20 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 1: Can the GOP establishment put their candidates up against Donald 21 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: Trump and have a chance of winning well. Trump has 22 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: twenty two indorsements on the line across both states on Tuesday, 23 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: many of them in competitive races, others are not so 24 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 1: competitive primaries. The biggest banner race of the night is 25 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: the five way GOP primary for US Senate in Ohio, 26 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: where Donald Trump had endorsed author jd Vance, hardcore conservative, 27 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: against four other candidates, three of whom also sought Trump's backing, 28 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: and one of whom did not. Those other candidates, Mike Gibbons, 29 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: Josh Mandel, jam And Timkin, and Matt Dolan all represent 30 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: different views on the future of the GOP than Trump 31 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:11,519 Speaker 1: in varying degrees. Dolan in particular represent a major departure 32 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: from Trump's view for the party. That's why it was 33 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: particularly interesting on Tuesday morning when we saw Dolan's wife 34 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: in some top national leftists like Daily Costs urging Ohio 35 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: Democrats to pull GOP ballots and vote for the quote 36 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: Republican Dolan in the primary. Success for Vance was spelled 37 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: good news for Trump endorsed Kennets and other upcoming primaries 38 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: such as those in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and elsewhere where, 39 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: some have struggled and some have prospered. That's because Vance 40 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: shot to the front of the pack in the final 41 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: weeks to race and pulling after Trump backed him, despite 42 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: an all out effort against him from some and other 43 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: donor class and the GOP establishment. Whoever wins the GOP 44 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 1: nomination Senate in Ohio will likely face Representative Tim Ryan, 45 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: a Democrat Ohio with a general election a tougher than 46 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: it looks race given Ryan's push to portray himself as 47 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: tough on China, especially in a state that would really 48 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: care about that because of manufacturing. Ohio Senate primary is 49 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: hardly the only big race that we saw on Tuesday, 50 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: several competitive congressional primaries in both Ohio and Indiana, and 51 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: the media was hoping that this would be a big 52 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: task for Trump endorsements. They could come out grandstand and 53 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: say Donald Trump is a loser, right, Donald Trump's endorsement 54 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: and a star falling. You don't want Trump's endorsement because 55 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: when you get it, then you lose. That's what they 56 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: were hoping to write. So what did we find out? 57 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: They were wrong? We also found out that the GOP 58 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: establishment's view of the GOP's future is not what GOP 59 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: voters want. Ohio GOP governor might do want to aim 60 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: to fend off two primary challengers, a former representative and 61 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: a guy named Joe Blystone, something polling indicates he is 62 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: likely to do. Seeing that, whether the polls are right 63 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: and DeWine conceal, the deal will also say a lot 64 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:17,119 Speaker 1: about the party in different respects than Trump's endorsements will, 65 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: but in an interesting way. These elections are the first 66 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: two since the unprecedented link of a draft decision from 67 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: the US Supreme Court indicating that justices are likely to 68 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: overturn rov Wade later this year. So the question is, 69 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: how would that affect things in the election? Right electorally 70 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: may or may not have a big impact in certain results. 71 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: People are wondering because that's part of the reason why 72 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: the League cappit when it did. They wanted to affect 73 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: the primaries that were taking place on Tuesday. So then 74 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: what happened. Let's talk about this. Mike Gibbons has conceded 75 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: in Ohio and endorsed Vance for the general election meeting. 76 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: All the major kennets now have coalesced quickly behind Vance 77 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: on election night. That's no small feat. What was said, 78 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: I'm humbled, proud, and honored by the overwhelming support received 79 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 1: from from people in Ohio across the Buckeye State tonight. 80 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: Even though the night did not go our way tonight, 81 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: we won't be discouraged, Gibbon said. We have a lot 82 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: of work left to do. Tomorrow is the first day 83 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: of the general election, the most important of our lifetime. 84 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: Congrats to JD. Vance and his well earned victory. I 85 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: fully support him as a Republican nominee. Never forget, our 86 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: strength as Americans is not beginning Washington. It begins here 87 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: in Ohio. As Republicans. We must unite to ensure our 88 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: values are representative Washington. What does that mean, Donald Trump One? Now, 89 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: let's move on to another big election night that all 90 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: the Democrats and all the media and all the mainstream 91 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: establishment Republicans were obsessed with hoping that Donald Trump would lose. 92 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: Trump back Medicine Gilbert One, the GOP nominee for Congress 93 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: in Ohio's thirteenth congressional district, that coming late at night 94 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: from the Associated Press, this means President Trump won again. Now, 95 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: I was watching all the races around the country. I 96 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: just gave you some highlights of some of them. By 97 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: three o'clock in the morning. Do you want to know 98 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: what Donald Trump's record was on endorsements on primary Tuesday? 99 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: President Trump went twenty two in O in his endorsements 100 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: on Tuesday evening, which followed a thirty three n O 101 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: record in Texas back in early March. That means that 102 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: Trump's record is now fifty five in oh this year 103 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: a perfect record on endorsements. Fifty five and oh, let 104 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: that sink in. Donald Trump's spokesman came out in a 105 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: statement and said, Trump's endorsement is what propelled not only 106 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: Vance to victory, which was one of the hottest contested 107 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: GOP establishment races against a Trump guy, to victory, but 108 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: it's also a sign of things that come in future elections. 109 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: You gotta understand the media and the Republican establishment. They 110 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: desperately wanted DJ Vance to lose. Donald Trump went all in. 111 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: He was the underdog. He put in tremendous work. He 112 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: had an immense political talent, is what the President said, 113 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: which put him in the position to earn the support 114 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: of the President Donald Trump. His spokesman said it was 115 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: the endorsement of President Donald Trump that took a candidate 116 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: who many insiders said was in fourth and at single 117 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: digits in the polls, and only two weeks have propelled 118 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: him to the commanding first place finish. Quote. The power 119 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: of President Trump's endorsement is undeniable. His dominance of the 120 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: Republican powerbrokers in DC cannot be overstated. And the promise 121 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: of this Maga movement will not just define the mid terms, 122 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: but it will win for years to come. That is 123 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: what Trump's spokesman said in a statement. Now, a total 124 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: of twenty of Trump's endorse candidates across Ohio and Indiana 125 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: alone one their racist. He has a perfect record in Indiana, 126 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: a perfect record. That's incredible, it's unbelievable. Now, the press 127 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 1: did not want this to happen. It was, by the way, 128 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: another major win for Donald Trump, and he backed Miller 129 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: way back before outgoing failed to Representative Anthony Gonzalez, another 130 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: Republican of Ohio, one of the ten impeachment Republicans in 131 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: the House, bout out of the primary, chose against trying 132 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: to run for reelection. What does this man? It means 133 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: this Trump is in firm command of the Republican Party. 134 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: As election night went on, it was very clear that 135 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is still the face and the people love 136 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Donald Trump cleaned up and down the ticket 137 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,599 Speaker 1: in Ohio as all of his statewide candidates. By the 138 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: end of the night, the candidate for Secretary of State, 139 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: Dave Yos for Attorney General, Keith Faber for Auditor, and 140 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: Robert Spraguo for treasurer all won their races. Two. Now, 141 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: these are racist traditionally that former presidents don't get involved in. 142 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: But it was very clear that Donald Trump said we're 143 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: gonna go all in and Ohio and we're gonna we're 144 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: gonna do this, and we're gonna get the GOP establishment 145 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 1: out and we're gonna get good people in. And that's 146 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: what they did. Dave Wasserman of the Cook Political Report 147 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: said that Vance will win his primary. Late in the night, 148 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: he says, quote, I've seen enough. DJ Vance wins the 149 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: Republican nominee and we'll face Tim Ryan in the fall. 150 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: This is this is earth shattering news in a place 151 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: like Ohio when they're watching this because the political insighters 152 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: there just couldn't believe it. Now, the candidates, they're not stupid. 153 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: DJ Vance, addressing his supporters as he was projected to 154 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: win an oh and the GOP Ohio Senate primary, and 155 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,719 Speaker 1: he had this to say about the President of the 156 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 1: United States of America's endorsement. Listen, I have absolutely got 157 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: to think the forty five the President of the United States, 158 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump, Ladies and gentlemen, one forgiven us an 159 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 1: example of what could be in this country. Ladies, And 160 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: remember twenty nineteen when wages were going up and not down. 161 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 1: Remember two thousand nineteen when workers were doing well in 162 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: this country, not struggling terribly. Thanks to the President for everything, 163 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: for endorsing me. And I gotta say, a lot of 164 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 1: the fake news media out there, and there are some 165 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: good ones in the back there. There's some bad ones too, 166 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: let's be honest. But they wanted to write a story 167 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: that this campaign would be the death of Donald Trump's 168 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: America First agenda, Ladies and gentlemen. It ain't the death 169 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: of the America First agenda. It ain't the death of 170 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: the American First agenda. The media and the GOP establishment 171 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: has done everything they can to get rid of Donald Trump, 172 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 1: to say that his indorsement doesn't matter, to tell you 173 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 1: that his indorsement is actually some sort of Hindrance. On 174 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: your campaign, Donald Trump was picking the candidates that the 175 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: GOP establishment refused to pick. Make no mistake, he was 176 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: picking candidates that were in fourth place, third place and 177 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: said watch this, hold my diet coke and see what happens. 178 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: And this is exactly what happened. Donald Trump was able 179 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: to have a massive victory because it wasn't just a 180 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: personal victory for Donald Trump. It was a victory for 181 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: the rule of law. It was a victory for constitutional conservatives. 182 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: It was a victory for people that wanted to put 183 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: America first. That's what the victory was. This is a 184 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: victory that so many people should be proud of. It 185 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: was a victory that people can get their head around 186 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: and say, we have a coalition of candidates. And this 187 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: is something that everybody needs to learn from Donald Trump. 188 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 1: You can't just win these these states back and and 189 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: move with just one candidate. You got to do the 190 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: whole thing up and down the ballot. You can't forget anything. 191 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: Look at what President Trump did in Ohio. He went 192 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: up and down the ballot and said, we're going to 193 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: get a team together to change the state for the better, 194 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: not just one race, not an easy race. He picked 195 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: hard races. He picked races that traditionally you don't get 196 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: involved in. He picked races that were important races for 197 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: the citizens in that state, in non sexy positions. And 198 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: he did it all all the way up and down 199 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: the ballot. If you think Donald Trump's not still in 200 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: charge of the Republican Party, you're an idiot. The elitists 201 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: are still losing and Donald Trump is still winning, and 202 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: that's good for all of us. All right, I want 203 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 1: to switch gears just for a second here and talk 204 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 1: about something that's happening that needs to be on everybody's 205 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: radar screen, and that is the fairness Doctrine. Now, if 206 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: you don't know what the fairness doctrine is, I'll give 207 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: you a quick recap of it. It's the Fairness Doctor 208 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 1: and of the United States Federal Communications Commission. You know 209 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: it is the FCC introduced in nineteen forty nine. It 210 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: was a policy that required the holders of broadcast licenses 211 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 1: both to present controversial issues of public importance and make 212 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: sure that both sides of it were presented in a 213 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: fair manner. In their words, to do so in a 214 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: manner that fairly reflected differing viewpoints. Now, in nineteen eighty seven, 215 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: the FEC abolished the Fairness Doctrine, prompting some to urge 216 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: its reintroduction through either a commission policy or through congressional legislation. Later, 217 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: the FEC actually removed the rule that implemented the policy 218 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: from the Federal Registrar in August of twenty eleven. Now, 219 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: the Fairness Doctrine, if you believe what its original intent was, 220 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: had two basic elements. It required broadcasters to vote some 221 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: of their airtime to discuss controversial matters of public interests, 222 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: and air contrasting views regarding those matters. Stations were actually 223 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: given wide latitude as to how to provide contrasting views. 224 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: It could be done through news segments, public affair shows, 225 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: or editorials. The doctor did not require equal time for 226 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: opposing views, but require that contrasting viewpoints be quote presented. Now, 227 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: the demise of this FEC rule had been considered by 228 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: some as the contributing factor of the rising levels of 229 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: party polarization in the United States of America. Insert the 230 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: Democratic Party and what they're now trying to do? Why 231 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: does this matter? What I told you? Well, let me 232 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: explain it to you. You know that woman, the Minister 233 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: of Truth. We now have video and audio of her 234 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: coming out during a web seminar saying this about the 235 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: fairness doctrine. I'm going to jump in on the fairness doctrine. 236 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: Bit I personally would welcome its return to our country. 237 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: Why Why would she welcome its return to our country? 238 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: Because she, now from what we've been told, wants to 239 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: reign in conservative talk radio hosts. Now, this is a 240 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: woman who's supposed to decide what is truthful, right, what 241 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: is disinformation, what is acceptable, and what is not. This 242 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: is a woman whose job it is, with your tax dollars, 243 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: to silence people like me first and then you. So 244 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: if you think that the Biden administrations or Well and 245 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: Disinformation Board is only going after Twitter and Facebook users, 246 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: you need to think again. Biden's Minister of Truth, Nina Jenkowitz, 247 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 1: wants to reimpose the fairness doctrine as a tool by 248 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: Democrats to stifle conservative speech for decades. Quote, I'm going 249 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: to jump in on the fairness doctor and I personally 250 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: would welcome its return to our country. In fact, jenko 251 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: Wit stated her position in congressional testimony to the House 252 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence in October twenty Now, what 253 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: would a return of the fairness doctrine mean? It would 254 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: mean that it would well basically impact the entire radio industry, 255 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: and not in a good way. This previously unknown tidbit 256 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: was also unearthed from her talking about how she thinks 257 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: that quote Conservatives have gained too much power, have gained 258 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: too much power. This is the woman that's supposed decide 259 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: what you are and what you're not. Now. The House 260 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: Permit Select Committee on Intelligence held a virtual hearing on 261 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: stopping the spread of misinformation online. Experts quote in social media, 262 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: national security and intelligence testified to the rise of disinformation 263 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: campaigns and those supported by foreign actors such as Russia 264 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: and China. They also spoke about the responsibility of media platforms, 265 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: the role the federal government should play, and the prevalence 266 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: of conspiracy groups such as que it on and how 267 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:11,640 Speaker 1: they use misinformation to manipulate and distort the truth. So 268 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: you insert the new woman in charge of disinformation of misinformation. 269 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: For an hour and thirty five minutes, they talked about 270 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: not disinformation, but how to reign in conservatives that they 271 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: don't like. That's what it was really all about. It 272 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 1: was about how do you reign in Conservatives? If you 273 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 1: want to know who was involved in this conversation included 274 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: people like Adam Shift. In fact, Adam Shift was there 275 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,479 Speaker 1: to talk about this and wanted you to understand it. 276 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 1: Take a listen to what he had to say about 277 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 1: misinformation online. Before I begin, I want to go through 278 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: our usual housekeeping matters. First, today's session will be conducted 279 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: entirely on an unclassified basis. Participants should refrain from discussing 280 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: any classified or other information protected from public disclosure. Second, 281 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: the Committee is conducting this virtual hearing and compliance with 282 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: House Resolution nine to six five and the regulations for 283 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 1: remote Committee proceedings. It is being broadcast live on the 284 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 1: committee's website. Because the threat posed by the COVID nineteen 285 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: pandemic remains ongoing, We're proceeding with us hearing remotely in 286 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: order to ensure the safety of our witnesses, members, staff, 287 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: and public. While we wish show we could return to 288 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: all standard in person events, health and safety protocols, dictate 289 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: we find alternate means of carrying out our oversight obligations. Okay, 290 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: so let me remind members of a few remote hearing procedures. First, 291 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: consistent with the regulations. The committee will keep microphones muted 292 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: to limit background noise. Members are responsible for unmuting themselves 293 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: when they seek recognition or when recognized for their five minutes, 294 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 1: because there are sometimes delays when muting or muting. I 295 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 1: love these guys. They're talking about misinformation. These are the rules. 296 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: Everybody mute yourself. Will tell you who gets a speak 297 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 1: when you can speak, keep it all muted. You're responsible 298 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: for un muting. I mean, this is like the first grade. 299 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: But these are the people that run the country. So 300 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: when they finally get to misinformation, right like, because that's 301 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: what this is actually about, Adam Shift goes all in. 302 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: We've got a problem with misinformation in this country, an 303 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: actors which could potentially cast out on the legitimacy of 304 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: the electoral outcome itself or make us doubt the viability 305 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 1: of our free and open democracy. That scenario goes the 306 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,719 Speaker 1: heart of our national security and evokes the oversight mandate 307 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 1: of Congress in this committee. Okay, so it's all about 308 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: national security now. Same guy that used Russian hoax information 309 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: to go after the president United States of America to 310 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: undermine the president of the United States of America, The 311 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 1: guy who tried to overthrow the will of the people. Right, 312 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: the guy who tried to overthrow the will of the people, 313 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: I want you to really think about that is sitting 314 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: there telling us that we need not only a Minister 315 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: of disinformation, but we also need to bring back the 316 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: fairness doctrine to reign in conservatives who have radio. Now, 317 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: let's compare that to what happens in this country in general. 318 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 1: You want to talk about fairness, look at the news, ABC, NBCCBS, 319 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: and I'm not in favor of bring back the fairness 320 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,679 Speaker 1: doctrine because I know how they'll use it. They're only 321 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: going to use against conservatives, not Democrats. Do you think 322 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: there's any conservatives over there? The answer is no, there 323 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: are not. There are not. Make that very clear. There 324 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 1: are any conservatives over at ABCNBCCBS in the newsroom. No. 325 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: Are there any conservatives on virtually any of the cable 326 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: news channels excluding Fox News News Mix. No? What about 327 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 1: the New York Times, The Washington Post, the LA Times. 328 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: Are there a bunch of conservatives there or at least 329 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: equal right like fifty fifty? No, we all know that 330 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: it's the liberal media owns media. We know that they're 331 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,679 Speaker 1: controlled by liberal narratives, and there have been people that 332 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 1: have been hoodwinked and thinking, well, this would be fair 333 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: across the board. It will never be fair. They will 334 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 1: never make it fair. But this idea that you want 335 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: to come after now talk radio. Their ideal world would 336 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 1: be to take conservatives off the radio and mandate that 337 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: liberal programs be given. Now, the people have decided that 338 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 1: talk radio is important, and the people have decided that 339 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: they like talk radio and that conservative hosts have good 340 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: ratings and democratic hosts suck. I've said this for a 341 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 1: long time. It's easy to have a one sided argument 342 00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 1: with propaganda, right, It's very easy to have one sided, okay, 343 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: one sided propaganda from democrats in a three minute newscast. 344 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: It goes unchallenged or untouched. You put a Democrat on 345 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 1: the radio for three hours with phone calls, and it 346 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 1: fails every time. I remember when they started a liberal 347 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: news network, not network, I should say a liberal news syndicate, 348 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: Air America. They used the best and the most brilliant 349 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: liberal minds to become talk show hosts, and they launched 350 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: on all these stations and liberal cities and towns, and 351 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 1: it failed. It went bankrupt it went under. One of 352 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: the one of my prize possessions that I had years 353 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: ago was when I was building out my studio for 354 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 1: my syndicated show, we actually bought equipment that was used 355 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: to broadcast Air America programming, and I loved buying it 356 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: five ten cents on the dollar. When they went under. 357 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: One of the boards that broadcasted our show was a 358 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: board that was used at Air America, which was just amazing. 359 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: So here they are with their disinformation individual and what 360 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: they're really doing now is they're trying to silence talk 361 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:25,719 Speaker 1: radio hosts conservatives. I'm sure that podcasting will come next 362 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 1: because they hate that we have a long form format 363 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: to be able to debate, discuss, have grand conversations about 364 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: the most important issues in this country. That's what they hate. 365 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 1: They despise it, and that's who they're coming for next. 366 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: All right, lastly, please make sure you hit that subscribe 367 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,919 Speaker 1: button or auto download button wherever you were listening to 368 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: this podcast right now, and take a moment to write 369 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: us a five star review.
