Sebastian Gorka FULL SHOW: Elon Musk's Twitter war heats up
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Welcome, dear friends.
This is the Salem Network, and I am your host, Sebastian Gorka, former strategist to the President of the United States, Donald John Trump, and currently, because Biden's just a little bit afraid, member of the Pentagon's National Security Education Board.
And usually, Thursday is not a hot news day.
Today, well, that's a different matter entirely.
We could spend the whole three hours of the show, we won't relax, we've got some amazing guests joining us today in studio as well as remotely, but we could spend all three hours of today's show on one news item.
No, not the arrest of the black supremacist from the Brooklyn subway attack, but we will discuss that later.
But the latest twist of events with regards to the public square.
And I don't mean the one outside.
I don't mean Regent's Park or the green lawns outside of Capitol Hill.
I mean what effectively is the real public square, which is Twitter.
Let's listen to the man who is now the largest single shareholder of that huge social media platform.
Free speech is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like.
And if that is the case, then we have free speech.
And it's damn annoying when someone you don't like says something you don't like.
That is a sign of a healthy, functioning free speech situation.
Yeah, that is exactly the case.
That individual who clearly believes in free speech, Elon Musk, who grew up in South Africa and Canada, has refused to take a seat on the board of Twitter, despite the fact that he has invested billions of dollars in that purchase last week.
Why?
Because today, the news broke that he has expressed an interest.
He has made a concrete offer of upwards of $42 billion in cash to buy the whole company.
Now, I thought I'm a relatively well-off individual, but the idea of just pulling out $42 billion or writing a check, that's impressive, Mr. Musk, especially since He made most of his money out of what?
I think he was on the ground floor when it came to PayPal or eBay or one of those things.
But, most ironic of all, of course, he sold those electric vehicles that the liberals love so much to virtue signal with.
And now, of course, he's famous for SpaceX, for revitalizing America's space industry in the private sector, not government-funded.
But this is huge.
For months, we have been We're kind of half-joking on our social media accounts, people like myself, Dan Bongino, Jesse Waters, others, about, you know what?
The liberals keep saying that Twitter's a private company.
They can do whatever they want.
If you don't like it, go and build your own alternative.
Well, President Trump did exactly that with Truth Social.
But then, the little twist, the irony of it all, along comes a man who says, I like that private company.
Not only am I going to become its biggest shareholder, I'm going to make you an offer.
I'm going to buy the whole thing because you have forsworn that which you committed yourself to.
You are no longer arbiters, paragons of free speech.
You are cancelling.
Think of that.
President Trump himself, more than 92, if I remember, more than 92 million followers on Twitter.
And because he apparently, allegedly, loses an election, gone.
His account is dropped into the Orwellian memory hole from 1994.
Such a shocking decision that other politicians from around the world who Really weren't Trumpian, weren't really big fans of President Trump, such as the former Chancellor in Germany.
such as Angela Merkel, such as the head of state in France, Macron, said, this is wrong.
Twitter should not do this.
This is an individual who not only won the election in 2016, in 2020 he received more votes than any incumbent president in the history of the republic.
And you just shut down his Twitter account?
Whilst the Iranian foreign minister, the Ayatollah, North Korea have accounts, but the American president doesn't.
So along comes Elon Musk, and here's the final really peak on detail of it all.
In a free market, when a company that has shares you can buy, receives an offer for the rest of those shares.
That offer has to be accepted or rejected.
It's very simple.
There's two paths.
Either Twitter says, no, we're not interested, Elon.
You look, you smell like a conservative.
We still want to keep people like President Trump banned.
So no, go away.
We don't care.
We don't need your $42 billion.
Or they accept the deal.
What happens if an offer is refused?
Well then, the shareholders have something to say.
Because Twitter, of course, isn't its board.
Twitter isn't its CEO.
Twitter really is its shareholders, like any traded company.
And if those shareholders think, I like Elon.
He's a really good businessman.
Forget the politics.
What he has done with regards to private business, to electric vehicles, the internet, space exploration, that guy would be an amazing CEO for Twitter.
But you've refused his deal?
Mr. CEO, Chairman of the Board, doesn't want to accept that deal?
You could be sued!
Twitter could be sued by its own shareholders.
In fact, there could be shareholders who do what?
Decide they want to share, they want to sell their share of their holdings to Mr. Musk.
So here we are at a crossroads.
Very rare in history is something so obvious.
This is like a plot line from a thriller.
An individual who's had no ostensible political identity for the last 40, 50 years suddenly, almost quite overnight, becomes a political actor in a positive sense.
And could affect the future of one of the most influential platforms out there.
And I don't say that in a good way.
I mean, look, mea culpa.
I'm on Twitter hours out of every day.
I'm addicted to social media.
People in our business usually are.
You have to be there.
But it's a cesspit.
It is a viper's den.
It is not good for your mental health.
I tell young people coming up who are trying to build their careers, one of the most important things you can do for yourself, not just mentally, but in terms of your intellectual capacity, is to switch this stinking thing off.
At least for an hour a day.
And just pick up a book and read a book.
Hopefully, ideally, a book that was written more than... Let's go with Shakespeare, with a book that was written at least 400 years ago.
But ideally, 2,000 years ago.
The ancient Greeks, the Romans, the Bible.
That is far better for you than days spent on Twitter.
So we are living in exciting times, my friend.
We will be joined later by former Trump cabinet member, Secretary Robert Wilkie, my good White House buddy, Boris Epstein, Marina Medvin, who is representing some of the January 6th defendants, Matt Boyle of Breitbart, and Congressman Jim Jordan.
So wherever you are, Make sure you are subscribed to this show.
Go to Spotify.
Plug in my name.
Subscribe right now.
And in the meantime, don't touch that dial.
So what's happening with the audio missing on the video cuts at the beginning?
The End Yeah.
Yes.
No, no, no.
The truth must be told.
All right.
No, no, no.
J6.
The truth must be told.
So that's good.
For monologue-- Where Elon Musk goes from here.
Are the phone lines open?
Are the phone lines open?
Can you play me cut three?
Can you play me cut three?
You don't like to lose.
If, in this case, you are not successful in, you know, the board does not accept your offer, you've said you won't go higher.
Is there a plan B?
There is.
- - All right, come in with that. - Hello, hello, hello.
Yo, hey Dr. G. Long time no talk.
I know, since this morning.
How you doing?
Doing great, doing great.
Did you have a good show this morning?
It was awesome.
Good.
Okay, we got a minute and a half here.
Are we going to come in with Israel?
No, first we're going to come in with Elon Musk, and then I'll do Israel, and then I'll go to Matt.
Yeah, but we didn't do the embed sheet, so.
Yeah, Israel and then I'm going to do Christian Fellowship in C. Do I have a script for that?
And then at some point in these three hours, we need to get in a job creators as well.
Do I have a script for that?
When?
When?
Well, it's not here, so it needs to be printed again.
Thank you.
Please.
Oh, there he is.
Here's my guy.
Good job.
How's your new show going?
Good?
Very well, thank you.
I heard.
Good.
Thank you.
- Please, oh, there he is, there's my guy.
Good job, how's your new show going good? - Very well, thank you. - I heard good.
- Thank you, yes indeed.
- Oh, for fuck's sake, for fuck's sake. - Does not accept your offer.
You've said you won't go higher.
Is there a plan B?
There is.
Elon Musk being asked whether there's a plan B!
And all he said was...
Yes, there is a plan B. How significant is this news?
Let's talk to a man who bears the title of Washington Bureau Chief of the most influential conservative website on the known planet.
It is Matt Boyle of Breitbart.com.
Matt, great to talk to you.
It's been so long.
I know.
It's been, what, since this morning?
Since this morning, since you were hosting XM Breitbart's Sirius show.
So thank you for having me there and for joining us today.
So I've got so much to discuss, especially the latest Quinnipiac poll with regards to the White House.
But first things first, I opened the show discussing the Twitter news, the Elon Musk.
This could be one of the most consequential news items in a long time, could it not, Matt?
It could be if it shakes out the way people seem to think it might, but I would just caution everybody to, you know, I'll believe it when I see it, right?
Like, and look, here's the deal.
Elon Musk is now for, what, two weeks been the biggest, or a week or so, been the biggest shareholder at Twitter.
And Donald Trump is still off of Twitter.
Charlie Kirk is still off of Twitter.
The Babylon Bee is still off of Twitter.
Nothing's changed at the way their company runs.
We'll see if he is able to succeed in this regard.
And also, I mean, look, I know Elon's a little bit different than a lot of the other billionaires out there, but he does do a lot of business with China.
So I would just be very careful and cautiously optimistic as this proceeds and hope for the best, but plan for the worst.
And don't think that some billionaire is going to save us, right?
We've still got to fight the fight for free speech and to pursue these other platforms and do our best to reign in big tech's oligarchy through all available channels.
We can't just expect somebody to come swoop in and save us.
All right.
It's not quite a cold shower, but it is a dose of reality from Matt Boylan.
That's why we invite him on the show every single week.
All right, Matt, let's talk about the latest Quinnipiac poll.
And I know it's a poll and we have to take that with a dose of salt as well.
But this is bad news for Biden, is it not?
He's a trash president, right?
Like, I mean, he's a trash president.
He's a loser president.
It's not just the Quinnipiac poll.
There's a CNBC poll that had him at 38.
He's in record lows across the board.
Look, when a president's under 50, they lose somewhere around 30-something House seats every time in the midterm elections.
Biden's under 40 in most polling now.
At most, he might be in the most favorable ratings in the low 40s.
He's in a really bad way.
He's tearing his party down.
The Democrat Party is in shambles.
They're a mess on every major issue, from the crime wave sweeping America to the migrants streaming across the border.
Record numbers.
Two million in the first year.
It's going to go up when they get rid of Title 42.
Then, in addition to that, the economy is a disaster.
The world's a less safer place.
Everybody can see that this experiment of complete Democrat control In Washington, D.C.
is an abject failure, and Joe Biden is a trash president, for lack of a better word.
I mean, he's a trash loser president, and he's failed in every respect.
And frankly, there is no pathway back for the Democrats to a House majority next year.
I think they're going to lose the Senate, too, based off of the way this is going.
But, again, to keep the cold dose of reality going that we had going in that first segment, don't take anything for granted.
Everybody out there needs to fight and work as hard as they can between now and November to make sure that that happens.
Because you think that they're going to just hand you your country back?
Absolutely not.
You've got to get engaged.
Thank you for bringing us back down to earth a little bit.
Elon Musk may be up there in his rocket ship, but we need to come back down to earth a little bit.
OK, let's tie all of these things together.
They've arrested the Brooklyn subway shooter.
He was a radical black supremacist.
The feds are bringing charges against him today.
Can you pick, do you have a sense, you know, you are the Washington Bureau Chief, what is going to be the key issue for most Americans when they go into that booth to pull the lever?
Is it going to be crime?
Is it going to be inflation?
Is it going to be war in Ukraine?
What is it looking like right now, Matt?
I think it's all of the above combined with immigration and national security.
And the way I would describe it is, Are you better off today than you were two years ago?
And the answer for the vast majority of Americans is absolutely not.
You're not safer, you're not better off economically, you're not making more money, you're paying more for everything.
Everything is worse now that Democrats are in charge than it was when Trump was in charge and the Republicans were in charge.
It's an all-of-the-above scenario.
I think that the Republicans, if they get Congress back, are going to be able to start reining in the Biden administration.
That's going to set the tone, I think, for the 2024 presidential election.
And hopefully, the 45th president of the United States comes back, runs, and is the 47th president of the United States.
And I think that's what's going to happen.
Any interesting developments we should know about when it comes to state races?
We're hearing on the grapevine that President Trump may imminently endorse J.D.
Vance.
What should our listeners and viewers across the nation be paying attention to, Matt?
Well, yeah, if he does endorse J.D.
Vance, I've seen those reports, too, and I've heard similar things.
I don't know if an endorsement isn't final with President Trump until it's final and the statement's issued.
And even then, you know, as we saw in Alabama, he may come back on it if the candidate doesn't do everything that he wants.
But the point here is that things don't play out the way that he wants.
But look, if he doesn't endorse J.D. Vance, that's going to be a huge win for President Trump and a huge win for conservatives.
I think the world of J.D. Vance, I've gotten it home really well over the course of this campaign.
I think that he's a really rising star.
But in addition to that, there's plenty of other great candidates around the country that are running.
And there's really exciting people that are coming into the Republican Party and they're stepping up and they're running for House, for Senate, for governor.
in a lot of these different states around the country.
And I think that when all is said and done in November, we look back on it all at the end of this year as these people get ready to be sworn in next year, we're gonna have a great new crop of Republicans coming into office that are going to really be game changers.
And you compare that up against the Democrat party where there's three octogenarians running the Democrats in the House of Representatives, right?
Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer, and Jim Clyburn are all over age 80, right?
They're in their 80s.
I mean, they've got 200 years on the rest of us combined, right?
So, I mean, it's just, there's young, exciting, fresh, new, talented people running everywhere in America right now on the Republican side.
I think there's record numbers of candidates.
More than 2010, more than 1994.
It's going to be an exciting year for Republicans.
It is a very, very exciting year.
We're wishing you from the America First studio and all our listeners a blessed and happy Easter.
We've been talking to Washington Bureau Chief of Breitbart.com, Matt Boyle.
Your calls next here on America First.
Um...
Thank you, buddy. - Good.
Give us a heads up.
Have a great Easter, buddy.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
So when I'm up there, I'll come to the studio.
Give us a heads up.
Have a great Easter, buddy.
All right.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Can you play me five and six, Eric?
Speaking of being interconnected, I mean, we've-- climate is one of those things that gets pushed down For example, now we've got Ukraine and there's a talk about let's ramp up production of fossil fuels because, you know, inflation, higher gas prices.
Are you worried that that's going to push back the initiative?
Well, interestingly, when we see what's happened with Russia's invasion of Ukraine, It argues for us redoubling our efforts to wean ourselves off fossil fuels.
Big tech is letting black nationalism spread across the internet.
These CEOs need to answer why.
If you can't get banned for posting a funny meme about Hillary, but you don't get knocked off for death threats, who's running your programs on the back end?
Black nationalism is a serious threat and our FBI just keeps dropping the ball.
Why?
The FBI director needs to answer questions, under oath, about this.
I know, I know.
Seven.
So shame on the New York Times, shame on CNN, and shame on Joe Biden for lying to America.
I came on your program, and I asked, declassify the information showing that white American men are the real threat.
It's a lie, and it's a slur against America.
Alright, we need to get Horace back, okay?
We need to get Horace back.
Let's get him one on one, okay?
We're doing both.
We're doing them both now.
Yeah, I'm going to start with Christian fellowship.
I'll just, I don't need the clips.
Um, yeah.
Can you trust Elon Musk.
Can Elon Musk save Twitter?
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Can you do the wide shot?
Can I see the wide shot?
I know.
Good, thanks.
Good, thanks. thanks.
Good, thanks.

Somebody who we haven't heard from for a while, a good buddy in Los Angeles, Don.
Welcome to our new America First Studios.
Dr. G, how are you?
I am good.
I am like, you know the guy who walked the tightrope between the two towers of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center?
My whole team feels like that right now as we are in a whole new studio with new equipment.
But so far, so far, we haven't fallen off the wire.
I love it.
I think Pavarotti, the great tenor, talked about opera singing being... He had an Italian word for it.
I think it sounded like infandibulo or something, but like a tightrope walker.
So, yeah, you're in good company.
Thank you kindly.
What brings you to our new studio today, Don?
Well, Dr. G, you know, I mean, I know there's so much other stuff going on, but this leaped out at me.
There's this excellent article in today's Epoch Times by Antonio, I hope I'm not butchering his name, Graceffo.
He's a big-time writer on China.
And Gordon Chang just wrote a similar article last week in the same paper.
And it's all about how the Chinese, they've been knocking on our front door with Taiwan, but now they're sneaking, actually getting involved.
They've got a big foothold in the Solomon Islands.
Dr. G, we fought for those islands, Guadalcanal, Tulagi.
and they've actually got a foothold there and it's like a big wake-up call Remember, because about a month or a couple months ago, remember we talked about this, I was saying we needed to fortify, you know, the Marshalls, the Marianas, the Gilberts.
These guys are sneaking right in under our noses, and it couldn't be more stark.
You know, this article and Gordon Chang's article last week, wow, they're like, you know, they're like They're really like Paul Revere, one by land, two by sea, three, if they're coming every which way.
And it's so, it's so important because, you know, again, they've been distracting.
It's just like when the thief has his buddy knock on your front door, then they sneak in the back door and steal everything.
You know, uh, they're, they're trying to cut our supply lines, you know, to Australia, to New Zealand.
They're trying to, you know, get underneath us.
And wow.
You know, I, I, I was so upset.
I had to call you first.
Yeah, look, I'm so grateful for you to keep us aware of other things we should be paying attention to because, look, we're not a superpower, Don.
We are a hyperpower.
We're more powerful than any nation in the world has ever seen, and the idea that we can't Walk two gum and, you know, juggle oranges at the same time is absurd.
So, yes, there's a war in Europe.
Yes, it's horrific.
But the idea that China isn't still targeting things that will undermine our national security, or Iran is on the cusp of nuclear weapons, these are all things we must and we can deal with at the same time.
Thank you for being part of the team.
Stay on the line.
Don deserves one of our Zelensky t-shirts, the message to Biden, I don't need a ride.
I need ammunition.
A great, great, great man fighting for liberty in the spirit of 1776.
Let's go quickly to Antoinette.
We've only got a few seconds.
Antoinette, welcome to our new studios.

Congressman Jim Jordan, welcome back to America First.
Good to be with you, Sebastian.
Thanks for having me.
So, I've got a theory I have to run past you that I've been asking my very special guests with regards to Hunter Biden.
But first, I opened the show with a monologue on the whole Elon Musk Twitter farrago.
How significant a story is this that now he's put in a $42 billion bid for the whole company?
No, this is huge for freedom, huge for the First Amendment free speech, because Elon Musk believes in the First Amendment.
And today's left basically says, if you don't agree with them, you're not allowed to talk.
And if you try, they're going to call you a racist, and they're going to try to cancel you.
And Elon Musk is saying, no, no, no, no.
This is the public square now.
These social media platforms are the public square.
We need to have a robust First Amendment.
We need to have freedom here.
and have a real debate.
So I think this is great.
I hope he's successful.
I hope he gets the company and makes it what it's supposed to be, which is a place where you can actually debate and exercise your free speech rights that we have under the First Amendment.
Well, it is the public square.
It has sadly become the public square, despite being a cesspit.
But if somebody like Elon Musk, who believes in freedom of speech, becomes the owner, then there is hope.
Okay, so here's my theory.
I hate conspiracy theories.
I usually shoot down anybody who calls up the show with a wacky one.
But let's call this a scenario.
Why on earth, after a year and a half, Congressman, would the New York Times, with the Washington Post, finally say the Hunter Biden laptop story is true?
Because they don't care about correcting stories, unless the easiest way to get rid of a vulnerable Democrat president is to throw his son under the bus.
What do you think of that theory?
Well, who knows the reason?
We do know it's been an abrupt change, and it came in a dramatic fashion.
I point out that two weeks ago yesterday, the Washington Post did two stories, one at 11 a.m., one at 11.04 a.m., two long, eight-page stories within four minutes of each other.
Saying that the laptop was real, that this is all true, which we all knew 18 months ago, but they hid from us, or hid from the American people.
So yeah, something's going on.
It could be what you just described.
It could be that there's indictments coming, and they don't want to look completely foolish.
They already do look foolish.
So I'm not sure.
What I do know is that what they told us 18 months ago was all built on this letter from 51 former intel officials, the so-called experts, six of them being former CIA.
And that became the basis for the conspiracy to keep information from the American people in just days before the most important election we have.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Individuals who, most of whom, still have grandfathered clearances.
Congressman, you are the ranking member of the Judiciary Committee.
I have to ask you, things are dripping out now and again.
Very few leaks at all, but some very interesting court documents.
Do you have faith in what you are witnessing coming out of the John Durham offices of special counsel?
Yeah, I do.
It's obviously taking a long time, but it seems to me, Mr. Durham's being thorough, he's being deliberate about this.
But I do have faith, and we now know it was a conspiracy like we all thought it was, that the dossier was fake, it all came from the Clinton campaign, we know all that.
The one thing I have concerns about is it seems to me that the FBI had to know.
Because the guy who's been indicted, Mr. Zussman, when he takes the information to the FBI, Hang on, we lost you there for a second.
When he takes, when Sussman takes the information to the FBI, carry on.
Yeah, when he takes it to the FBI, he doesn't just give it to anyone at the FBI.
In fact, he contacts the person ahead of time, says, I'm coming to you.
He says, Jim, I'm coming to you.
He gives it to the chief counsel at the FBI.
So how did the FBI not know that Mr. Sussman was working for Perkins Coie and was working for the Clinton campaign?
I find that hard to believe.
So that is the one concern I have.
It seems to me that they had to be in on this, but we'll just have to wait and see what Mr. Durham comes up with in the end.
All right, let's go international.
I think you probably agree with me that if my former boss was still in the White House, we wouldn't have sacrificed Afghanistan and Russia wouldn't have invaded Ukraine.
The fact that the Ukrainians are doing heroically against Russia, we have credible reports of war crimes.
Could you rate the performance of this administration, including the flip-flop on the F-16s?
Well, I mean, it's not just foreign policy, as you know, Sebastian.
It's everything.
I mean, it's the border, it's crime, it's inflation, it's energy, it's the First Amendment attacks, and of course it is foreign policy.
It seems to me that the picture that sticks in Americans' minds is just about how bad this administration has been, is that aircraft last summer that we saw taken off out of Afghanistan, and people literally trying to jump on the wheels of that plane as it's leaving.
That is a picture of just how disastrous this administration has been across the board, So yeah, when you project weakness, you know this.
I think the country knows this.
When you project weakness from the Oval Office, bad guys are going to do bad things.
And I think it was a great question that was asked of former Secretary of State Pompeo a few weeks back.
They asked him, they said, would this have happened in a Trump administration if President Trump were still president?
And former Secretary of State Pompeo said, well, the short answer is, I don't know.
But I do know this.
It didn't happen when President Trump was in the White House.
And that says it all.
That shows the difference.
And again, I think the American people have common sense, and they just see how bad this administration has been, not just in foreign policy, but everywhere else.
Sadly, we're out of time.
I want to wish you and your loved ones a blessed Easter.
What is your message, Congressman Jordan, to the citizens of Ohio and our great nation this Easter weekend?
Well, you know, we celebrate the resurrection of the Savior this weekend and so enjoy your time with your family and never forget that in spite of how bad things seem with the Biden administration, we still live in the greatest country ever.
This book is Do What You Said You Would Do, Fighting for Freedom in the Swamp.
Follow this man, Jim underscore Jordan and Jordan dot house dot gov.
Can't wait to see him as chairman of that committee or maybe even speaker of the house.
Have a blessed Easter.
I'm Sebastian Gorka.

Well, no, I need it now.
I need it for this hour.
Well, then email it to me.
I need this JCN copy first.
I'm not worried about anything else.
I'm not worried about anything else.
Have you emailed it?
Have you?
The End
We have even more cuts from Mr. Musk.
We'll save for the next hour.
But my old boss, President Trump, was back in the news giving an interview, and we have to give you a flavor of that.
He's got a new policy, or a new attitude, or a new plan for his second term.
This is President Trump on Fox Cut Eight.
Play cards.
I think one of the things that I would do differently is, you know, I found the media is so corrupt that I would really not focus on them almost at all like I just focus on getting the job done for the American people.
You cater to the media.
You deal with the media.
They're very dishonest.
They write opposite things.
They have sources that aren't sources.
They're unbelievably dishonest, hence the name fake news.
I mean, they're fake news.
And I think, really, I'd focus on getting the job done, getting our country back.
Our country has never been in a worse position than it is right now.
We're disrespected all over the world.
We no longer have respect.
That is a big deal.
Think of that.
An individual who, unlike Biden, isn't hiding in the basement or giving fake press conferences in fake versions of the Oval Office that are built in the Eisenhower Executive Building.
This was a president who would stop on his way to getting on Marine One, the helicopter, on the South Lawn, followed by that gaggle of reporters, and he'd give impromptu press briefings for upwards of 20, 30, 40 minutes as he's walking on his way to Marine One.
This individual says, "No, next time round, "I'm not giving them the oxygen." This is the challenge we face here at America First.
How much do we talk about the lying legacy mainstream media?
Or do we just ignore them?
When you think that this humble radio show has 3 million listeners live across the nation, then you add to that all the social media viewers, the 1.2 million on my Twitter account, the Rumble viewers, If you compare that to the 500,000 who watch CNN in peak viewership hours, why do we even talk about it?
Why do we talk about the Washington Post when Breitbart, for example, crushes them on the internet in terms of viewer and reader interaction?
So this could be the way to go, with one proviso, one little tweak or modification, if I may, Mr. President.
We deal with the fake news.
We shine a light on them to ridicule them, to demonstrate when they are lying, which is most of the time, and when they are hacks that are simply a propaganda arm of the DNC.
That's my formula for the second Trump administration.
Let's make it happen, and let's support those that make shows like this one possible.

Portions of America First are brought to you in part by Stand With Israel Tour. - Ooh.
National Tax Day is April 18th and couldn't come at a worse time for Americans struggling to make ends meet and small business owners trying to keep their doors open.
Congress and the Biden administration are making a bad situation they created even worse.
But there's good news from the states.
Many governors, most from red states, have enacted policy reforms that are helping small businesses, their employees, and local economies grow.
Our good friends at the Job Creators Network have launched the Great Opportunity Project to shine a light on these state wins.
While states lowered taxes and regulations and prospered, the Biden administration is proposing $2.5 trillion of tax increases Wow, how did we get here?
Is it truly Thursday?
We need to fight back.
Your representatives in D.C. need to hear from you.
Go now to thegreatopportunityproject.com and sign their petition telling them not to raise taxes and make President Trump's tax cuts permanent.
That's thegreatopportunityproject.com, brought to you by the Job Creators Network.
Wow, how did we get here?
Is it truly Thursday?
Is it time to check in with my erstwhile White House buddy?
Do you like that, Baron Boris Epstein, the erstwhile White House Buddy?
I love that and I love the new studio.
This looks amazing.
Give them the big shot.
Eric, give them the big, give the Baron the full video tour.
You've got to come here.
You've got to come here, dude.
I'll be there soon.
I can't wait, my man.
I can't wait.
This is great.
I love this.
All right.
We've got moving cameras, all kinds of stuff.
God bless Salem.
Thanks, everybody.
David, Ed, Phil, Tom, and the whole crew here.
You know who you are.
All right, Boris, so much to squeeze into just one segment.
We're going to continue at length when you're in the swamp, in the studio.
You got it.
We can talk about Biden, Quinnipiac, Hispanic vote.
But first, because I've got to ask everybody, I just asked Jim Jordan.
I did a monologue on it.
And then Matt Boyle gave me a cold shower.
He said, don't trust the billionaires.
But still, Elon Musk, Twitter, aren't you a little bit excited, Barron?
You know, I will tell you, my view is that this is a blood in the water moment for Twitter.
Twitter's in trouble.
Twitter's not an honest company.
It's not a pro-America company, it's not a pro-democracy company, it's a censorship company, right?
They kicked off a sitting commander-in-chief while allowing Iran, Russia, the Chinese Communist Party and others to remain.
So, the fact that Elon Musk is coming, now you got Mark Cuban tweeting, hey, tweeting, maybe Elon Musk and Peter Thiel could team up.
What this means is that Twitter is in trouble, the current management is in trouble, and it'll be very interesting to see how this plays out.
I love that.
You should be in politics.
You should be like a strategic advisor to a presidential campaign.
I like that.
A blood-in-the-water moment.
I think we've got a title for our segment.
Okay, let's talk to somebody else who's hemorrhaging rapidly as we speak.
The Quinnipiac poll, the incumbents' approval ratings, the disapproval ratings from Hispanic Americans.
This is historic, is it not?
It's absolutely historic.
Joe Biden has cratered and continues to crater in his support.
He's now upside down by 20 points overall, approved, disapproved.
He's in the 20s with independents.
He's completely upside down with African-Americans, with Hispanics, and he's even lost double digits with the Jewish vote, something that, as you know, I've been focused on in the key battleground states of Florida, Ohio, and others.
The level of incompetence and fecklessness by Biden has been only outstripped by how much he's disdained by the American people and how much Kamala Harris is disdained by the American people.
We have not seen this level of turnoff from Americans to a sitting president, I really think ever.
I think this is worse than when Richard Nixon walked to the helicopter.
This is a moment where the American people do not value, do not support, and definitely, definitely do not respect the president.
And frankly, because they know that he's illegitimate.
Yeah, I think we could update the, what was it, the double victory sign from Nixon.
I think this time it will be another bird emptying its bowels onto Biden as he gets onto Marine One.
How about that?
When even the birds hate you, you've got a problem.
OK, I have to ask you, because you are, look, follow this guy everywhere, BorisEP, Boris underscore Epstein, BorisEP.com.
You know politics, and you know when somebody's being genuine and somebody's pulling a stunt.
One of our key members here in the team, very skeptical of the buses of illegal immigrants being dropped in D.C., sees it as a stunt from Governor Abbott.
How do you look at it?
We have to do something.
You know, the governors need to do something.
I'm not a fan.
What do you think?
Is this a stunt?
I'm not a fan because your family, my family, and families of a lot of folks we know, they live in and around Washington, D.C.
Oh, let's put them on buses and send them to the Capitol.
I'm not sure what that accomplishes, how that gets our border to be safer.
So to me, it absolutely feels like something that's gotten for votes and that's gotten for some PR benefit.
What we should be doing and what Texas should be doing is doing all it can to actually secure its border rather than releasing, effectively, illegal immigrants into the country by sending them to D.C.
Yeah, as somebody who lives in the swamp, I tend to concur.
Especially when, you know, these aren't people who were arrested by Texas Public Safety.
They said to them, would you like a free ride to Washington, D.C.?
And like bloody tourists, you know, Texas pays for them to come to D.C.
and then they can go wherever they want afterwards.
So it's a complete...
It's a complete defeat, right?
Because you're not busting them south of the border, not busting them north of the border, you know, and Canada is just releasing illegal immigrants with who knows what their backgrounds are into the country.
Isn't that what we as Republicans are trying to fight?
Is Texas a separate country now?
Not last I checked.
Yeah.
So yeah, I'm not a fan.
Okay, good.
I'm glad to get that answer from you.
Let's listen to the woman who is a heartbeat away from the presidency.
For once, she was asked a question about a real issue.
This is Kamala on Inflation Cut 10.
A lot of people go to the store and don't feel that their wages are going as far as they want them to.
Then they get mad at the gas station.
They're focusing a lot of that on the White House.
And you've talked about pandemic.
You've talked about supply chain and Ukraine.
But they're still putting that anger with the administration.
What do you say to them?
Well, first of all, I acknowledge what I must acknowledge.
The prices are going up and that People are working hard and in many cases are worried about whether they can get through the end of the month.
I must acknowledge, we must acknowledge that prices are increasing.
I'm just wondering, Baron, when the last time was she pushed a trolley of groceries out of Safeway?
I acknowledge that you acknowledge that we acknowledge an acknowledgement of acknowledging That Ukraine is in Europe and Russia is next door.
Do you acknowledge that?
Ukraine's smaller, Russia's bigger.
I mean, it's so embarrassing, right?
What do our adversaries think?
This is the person who's second in command in our country?
You know?
And also, as a person who's been able to have issues, the Attorney General of California and the Senator, and now she's the Vice President, is this the best our country has to offer?
It's sad, it's pathetic, and it's frankly defeating.
Because, you know, what do you think Xi, Putin, the mules, what are they thinking when they see that?
What are our allies thinking?
Macron and others.
Okay, that's what's going on.
They've got a feckless old guy who's getting pooped on by birds, okay?
And they've got a woman who can't string two words together.
That's American leadership?
Not promising.
All right.
I'm doing a little poll here on America First.
I'm asking our important guests their opinion on a theory I have.
I'm not going to call it a conspiracy theory, just a possible scenario.
I asked Jim Jordan in the last hour, and he thought it was credible.
So let me ask you, former strategic advisor to the Trump campaign, former special assistant to President Trump, why Would the legacy-lying media, after a year and a half, finally say, yes, the Hunter Biden story is true, unless this is the easiest way to get rid of Joe Biden, is to throw his son under the bus?
What do you think of Dr. G's theory, Barron?
I think it's two-part.
It's throwing Biden under the bus, and also I think they know the investigation's heating up, the grand jury investigation's heating up, and they don't want to be in a position where Hunter's indicted and they're still saying that the laptop is somehow Russian propaganda.
So I think it's both trying to throw the feckless, illegitimate Biden under the bus, and it's trying to save their hide for when hopefully there's an indictment that comes down on Hunter Biden.
Yeah, maybe if they find them somewhere in a meth den or whatever it is.
Alright, I think that's two for two.
We have support for my theory.
There's no other reason because, hang on, these guys have never made corrections to big stories.
They're not interested in saving their reputations because they don't have any reputations to save.
God bless you.
I'm wishing you a wonderful long weekend.
