Thank you. | |
| Good evening, everybody. | ||
| You are watching America First. | ||
| My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes. | ||
| We have a great show for you tonight. | ||
| Very excited to be back with you here tonight on Friday. | ||
| Casual Friday. | ||
| We have a lot to talk about tonight. | ||
| Lots to get into. | ||
| Big show! | ||
| It's been a couple of big shows, big stories. | ||
| Tonight our featured story we were supposed to cover last night, but we ran out of Excuse me. | ||
| We ran out of time last night because I was covering the Biden speech. | ||
| Major Hitler-esque speech from the president last night. | ||
| So I covered that last night on the show. | ||
| I live-streamed the speech as it happened at 7. | ||
| We have literal cases, email exchanges, Where a White House official in the press office is emailing Facebook and telling them to take down specific posts. | ||
| Like, emailing a representative at Facebook and saying, hey, this post is misinformation, can you take this down? | ||
| And Facebook replies in 30 seconds, yep, we just took it down. | ||
| And I've known about this for a long time. | ||
| You know, I had friends in the Trump administration, and I have people in this administration, and that's literally how it works. | ||
| That's how it has worked since Joe Biden got into office, particularly in the press secretary's office. | ||
| They're in constant communication with the big tech companies, and the moderation policies are coming from the government. | ||
| And this is all factual. | ||
| All of this was this entire conversation about digital speech, the digital public square. | ||
| And I said last night, and this is a part of it and I'll get into this later tonight, if we hear constantly that Big Tech cannot be regulated by the First Amendment or constrained in its ability to moderate based on the First Amendment because it's a private company, The dynamic totally changes when they have this incestuous relationship with the government. | ||
| If all the big tech companies are federal contractors, which they are, and not only are they federal contractors, but they're getting direction on their moderation from the White House, and not even from, like, although they are from the Defense Department, but almost entirely from the Press Secretary's office, | ||
| So in other words, from the PR wing of the White House, and really one of the most partisan agencies in the administration, well, it makes it really difficult to say that then they should not be constrained by constitutional law. | ||
| So we'll talk about all that tonight. | ||
| Pretty good stuff. | ||
| It's kind of amazing, though, that it even needs to be said. | ||
| I don't know that this is even like a surprise to anybody. | ||
| But I know that I've been arguing with Destiny and other leftists for years, as long as I've been doing this show, that there even is a left-wing bias in content moderation. | ||
| Let alone the federal contract relationship between the DoD and the intel agencies in Big Tech. | ||
| Let alone the Press Secretary's involvement in Big Tech. | ||
| But we have to, as always, we have to wait until we get the emails and discovery from some massive lawsuit coming from the states to prove what we all already knew. | ||
| Which was obvious, basically, from the beginning. | ||
| So, we'll talk about that. | ||
| We'll also be talking tonight about a new policy from Bank of America. | ||
| What could go wrong? | ||
| Bank of America, my friend, has launched a new effort to increase black and Hispanic home ownership and they're doing this by offering mortgages to blacks and Hispanics with no money down and no closing costs. | ||
| So blacks and Hispanics in all the major cities in America, I think they're doing it in Miami, Dallas, LA, Detroit, Charlotte, Blacks and Hispanics will be able to get mortgages without putting any money down. | ||
| 0% down payment and no closing costs. | ||
| So, essentially, they're able to get a mortgage just by signing up. | ||
| If you want to get a house, you just sign up and borrow. | ||
| And, by the way, during a record high real estate market, particularly here, In Miami and Dallas, hello, and Los Angeles, record high real estate, no money down, they can borrow the entire amount, and also no closing costs. | ||
| So they get the loan for free at 6%, at 6% mortgage in the most expensive neighborhoods in America, for blacks and Hispanics. | ||
| What could go wrong here? | ||
| I fail to see what the negative consequences from this could be. | ||
| Other than that, this was exactly the same policy which precipitated the 2006 housing bust. | ||
| It's the exact same story. | ||
| And if you know the story of 2008, very related to what happened in 2006. | ||
| And it all goes back to the so-called subprime mortgages that were being lent out. | ||
| And restrictions were loosened by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae and people were able to take on debt that they could not pay for. | ||
| And then when that debt was packaged up and sold as an asset class, as a very safe asset class to pension funds and to other major investors, Well, when people couldn't pay back the money, then that basically destroyed the entire stock market. | ||
| And, you know, so I don't know if it's gonna play out exactly like that, but it's kind of like the same story right now. | ||
| Bank of America, no down payment, no closing costs. | ||
| Yeah, that's gonna go great. | ||
| So we'll talk about that too. | ||
| And by the way, what about us white people, huh? | ||
| These black people just get everything. | ||
| They get the COVID stimulus, they get the The PPP. | ||
| Now they get free houses. | ||
| We just heard from American Express. | ||
| They get promotions. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They get... I talked about it the other day. | |
| It's an apartheid state, but... Those are our two big stories. | ||
| That's our news. | ||
| But it's gonna be a pretty good show. | ||
| Fun stuff! | ||
| And tonight it's gonna be a casual Friday episode as you can see. | ||
| I'm in my favorite gray sweatshirt. | ||
| How's my hair? | ||
| How's my hair doing today? | ||
|

|
I don't know. | |
| I don't love it, but it's fine. | ||
| Casual Friday. | ||
| No necktie, so it's going to be chill, cozy, relaxed. | ||
| We're just chilling out tonight. | ||
| It's my first week back. | ||
| You know, I was away for a week, and now it's my first full week back. | ||
| It's been pretty good. | ||
| Pretty interesting. | ||
| Some interesting things going on. | ||
| The Biden speech, that was cool. | ||
| What else? | ||
| What else happened? | ||
| I'm trying to remember. | ||
| Andrew Tate getting banned. | ||

| So that's a very good... it's a very good film. | ||
| So anyway, that's that. | ||
| Not too much else going on besides that. | ||
| Today, you know, I had a kind of a low-key day today. | ||
| I got some work done. | ||
| I woke up a little bit late. | ||
| I woke up... I've been on a good sleep schedule. | ||
| Honestly, though, when I'm on a good sleep schedule, I feel... I feel worse. | ||
| I feel better, but I also feel worse. | ||
| You know, when I was on vacation... NOT! | ||
| I was not on vacation! | ||
| When I was in Miami, I was not on vacation. | ||
| I don't take... This guy doesn't take vacations. | ||
| There's never a vacation from this thing and from being Nick Fuentes. | ||
| When I was driving all over Florida, meeting with Loomer and Bankers and Destiny and everything else, and the Manic Pixie Dream Girl, What was I just saying? | ||
| I totally lost my train of thought. | ||
| What was I just... Oh yeah! | ||
| You know, whenever I'm away, whenever I'm not here in Chicago... | ||
| I start to sleep at night because when you're in like a hotel I don't know why when you're in a hotel but you just tend to sleep at night I don't know why but you just maybe it's because you need to check out in the morning you check out at like 11 so it kind of forces you to wake up in the morning whenever I travel I find myself being awake during the day and sleeping at night so I got back and I've been on a good sleep schedule that's what I was saying And you know when I'm on a good, and when I say on a good sleep schedule, I mean sleeping at night. | ||
| Because normally I'm sleeping during the day or I don't sleep for two days at a time. | ||
| And I feel like, I feel physically better, like I look better, I feel better. | ||
| I don't throw up, my energy level is high, you know, my mood is better, but I just, I don't feel creative. | ||
| I feel like I get way more creative when I'm out all night and when I get manic, depressive, and I'm not, I'm not like a bipolar or whatever. | ||
| When you stay up for like 24, 48 hours at a time, Your mood swings, you get adrenaline, and you kind of feel like sometimes you feel really good, then you want to kill yourself. | ||
| And there's something about that. | ||
| Me, as a creator, as an artist, there's definitely a positive. | ||
| Like, sometimes I'll do a show when I haven't slept, and it's like my best show ever because I'm totally off the wall. | ||
| I've been driving all night. | ||
| My eyes are bloodshot. | ||
| I haven't slept in three days. | ||
| And then when I'm just kind of going to bed at a normal bedtime and waking up in the morning, and I drink my coffee, and I read my paper, and I take the dog for a walk, and I drive to work, and I punch the clock, and I drive home, and I kiss my wife, and I eat my meatloaf, and you know, then it's like, then I'm just, the creativity's gone. | ||
| I'm just too, I'm like too normal. | ||
| That's how I feel. | ||
| I feel too normal. | ||
| So I need to break it. | ||
| I need to break it again. | ||
| I need to go off the rails again. | ||
| And then I go off the rails and I'm like, I want to kill myself. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I got to go to bed at a reasonable time. | |
| So I had a kind of a boring day. | ||
| I woke up in the morning, did some work. | ||
| And then I ordered DoorDash. | ||
| I ordered Dunkin' Donuts DoorDash. | ||
| And I had a dream about a donut. | ||
| that's why i ordered dunkin donuts you know because normally i wouldn't do that but i had a dream about a donut i had a dream about a chocolate glazed donut and so i woke up and i said um you know i'm gonna eat pizza for dinner it's friday i always get pizza on friday uh you know that's like that's what i do so So I said, you know what? | ||
| I'm gonna sort of save my appetite. | ||
| I'm not gonna eat all day. | ||
| I'll get a coffee. | ||
| I'll get some doughnuts. | ||
| I'll get a little breakfast wrap and then I'll work and then I'll get pizza and a dinner. | ||
| So I ordered DoorDash. | ||
| I ordered the chocolate glazed doughnut. | ||
| I ordered the vanilla sprinkled doughnut, mocha Coffee I get the bacon egg cheese wrap and I'm all excited. | ||
| I'm on a discord column I'm like, oh boy, here we go. | ||
| I'm like, this is this is my big day. | ||
| This is the big day Donut coffee pizza. | ||
| This is it. | ||
| This is what life is all about Finally, my luck's about to turn here. | ||
| You know, my luck is about to turn a corner when when these donuts arrive and And then, it said, okay, your Dasher is on the way. | ||
| His name is Ralph. | ||
| I said, praise God. | ||
| Like, it is a meme magic moment. | ||
| My Dasher named Ralph is on his way with the chocolate glazed donut that I dreamt of, and my coffee, and I'm, you know, I'm rubbing my hands together. | ||
| I'm saying, here we go. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
| And then I open the door and there's a Wendy's bag. | ||
| There's a... There's a Wendy's bag at the door. | ||
| That's my phone. | ||
| I opened the door yeah that's and that's like and that symbolizes I opened the door and there's a sad little Wendy's bag and I'm like my mind just like short-circuited I'm like Wendy's bag I'm like I'm like wait a second and like this moment of total like this is just depressing I'm thinking like maybe it's actually in there but they have the wrong bag like that makes sense I opened the door and I was so like crushed | ||
| That like for a split second I thought, okay it came in a... my Dunkin' order came in a Wendy's bag. | ||
| Like maybe I'm gonna open this Wendy's bag up and there'll be donuts and coffee inside. | ||
| Nope! | ||
| I don't know why I thought that. | ||
| Maybe because I was just like, I was hanging on. | ||
| Nope! | ||
| I pick it up and it's fries and spicy nuggets and a burger. | ||
| I just lost my mind, and I was... Shame on me, because I always take it out on the customer service. | ||
| I go in the app, I call up the customer service, and I'm like, HELLO! | ||
| HELLO! | ||
|
unidentified
|
HELLO! | |
| THIS IS RIDICULOUS! | ||
| I ORDER DOORDASH EVERY DAY! | ||
| And, you know, I kind of let them have it. | ||
| And they refunded me, and they gave me five bucks. | ||
| But at that point, I said, you know what? | ||
| The day's over. | ||
| The day's ruined. | ||
| I'm just gonna kill myself later today, because it's over. | ||
| No kidding, of course. | ||
| That was my big adventure today. | ||
| That was really crushing. | ||
| Do you want to know why? | ||
| I'm sure he was black. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| I didn't get a look at him. | ||
| I'm sure he was black. | ||
| They had, like, three drop-offs before me. | ||
| I saw on the map, like, he was dropping off three orders, so he just, this guy just dropped bags off. | ||
| He just pulls up, oh, here's an order, here's an order, oh, here's an order. | ||
| So probably there's, like, three people that got the wrong order. | ||
| At least two, probably three. | ||
| And then I texted the driver. | ||
| I think there was a glitch. | ||
| Normally it disconnects you. | ||
| Then I get into it with the driver. | ||
| I said, hey fuckface. | ||
| You gave me Wendy's. | ||
| I ordered Dunkin'. | ||
| Nice going, goof. | ||
| So that was my day. | ||
| day absolutely ruined i i was on a call i i said you know what i i can't i hung up i got in bed i went to bed i went to bed i woke up i got a pizza now i'm here so anyway so that was my day that was my disappointment that was my crushing disappointment today and i'm Not a happy camper about that one. | ||
| I dreamt! | ||
| I dreamt! | ||
| I had a scary dream too. | ||
| I had a dream about ghosts. | ||
| I had a dream about ghosts. | ||
| And a dream about a chocolate glazed donut. | ||
| The ghost dream was scary. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I knew that was coming. | |
| You know when you're in a dream and you know it's scary and you try to wake yourself up? | ||
| It was one of those. | ||
| So that was my Friday. | ||
| Happy Friday everybody! | ||
| Okay, alright, alright. | ||
| With that out of the way, we'll dive... I had to tell somebody. | ||
| Because, yeah, that really... Well, here's the best part. | ||
| Then I order a pizza. | ||
| I jump into bed. | ||
| I fall asleep! | ||
| I wake up. | ||
| The pizza's been sitting out there for 20 minutes. | ||
| Could you just... could you die? | ||
| Like, that was my day. | ||
| That was my day with DoorDash. | ||
| Could you just die? | ||
| Now, the other one was on me. | ||
| Second one was on me, admittedly. | ||
| But I jump into bed because I was crushed. | ||
| I said, whatever. | ||
| You know, I'm just gonna end my life. | ||
| You know, I'm on my phone. | ||
| I fall asleep. | ||
| I roll over. | ||
| I fall asleep. | ||
| Before I fall asleep, I order the pizza. | ||
| I wake up panicked and I check my phone. | ||
| It was delivered 20 minutes ago. | ||
| So I race out, grab the pizza. | ||
| It's barely warm. | ||
| And I'm trying I'm like and I'm such a retard like I'm eating it really fast because it's like still kind of warm. | ||
| Like a normal person would like turn the oven on and put the pizza in and like warm the pizza up. | ||
| I'm like well the warmth is fleeting so I've got to eat it quickly. | ||
| So I'm like out of breath because I go from sleeping to running. | ||
| Running there, running back, get a plate, run downstairs, get a pop, So I'm like out of breath, I'm dizzy, I'm like slamming this pizza before it gets cold. | ||
| You know, I'm just like... It's total dysfunction. | ||
| Some things come easy to me, some things are not easy for me. | ||
| Some things... You know, like building a platform, doing AFFPAC3, like debating destiny, mainstreaming, far-right views. | ||
| You know, there's a lot of things that come easy to me. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Designing a hat, Doing an extemporaneous 2-3 hour show every night, 5 nights a week for 5 years. | ||
| Things like that come easy to me. | ||
| Other things I struggle with. | ||
| Other things, you know, I struggle sometimes. | ||
| So anyway, that was my day. | ||
| That was my struggle with dinner. | ||
| But anyway, we're going to move on. | ||
| We're going to dive into the news. | ||
| I know you guys don't care. | ||
| I know you guys couldn't care less about my dining exploits, but it's Casual Friday, so anything goes. | ||
| Alright, we're going to dive in here. | ||
| I want to talk about this Bank of America story. | ||
| This is pretty, uh, this is just a load of crap. | ||
| And it continues on. | ||
| You know, we talked on Wednesday about American Express. | ||
| American Express, one of the biggest credit card companies in the world. | ||
| Major, mainstream, wealthy company, you know. | ||
| And how there's this giant lawsuit against them after we even heard other reports from Manhattan Institute about all the anti-white discrimination going on there. | ||
| That you've got anti-white racial sensitivity training, anti-white seminars, HR, they're passing up white people for promotions, they've got racial quotas, there's anti-white, non-white managers in the company that get promoted and get benefits. | ||
| So that's American Express on Wednesday. | ||
| Today we have an announcement from Bank of America, another one of the most major financial institutions in the country. | ||
| And the story today is that they're now giving out mortgages to blacks and Hispanics with no money down, no 0% down payment, and no closing costs. | ||
| And they say that they're doing this to increase black and Hispanic home ownership. | ||
| So they're going into neighborhoods across the country In Los Angeles, Dallas, Miami, Charlotte, I just read them all off a moment ago, Detroit, and they're going in there and apparently, and it's weird because they say it's not just for blacks and Hispanics, but it also is. | ||
| And they're giving them mortgages for no... So I'm trying to figure out, what's the program here? | ||
| So if I'm a black guy, I walk into Bank of America and say, hey, I want to buy a $500,000 house. | ||
| And they say, okay, here you go. | ||
| Your payment is... | ||
| $3,000, $3,500 and it starts Monday. | ||
| Is that how it works? | ||
| Do they even do a credit check? | ||
| Or is that racist too? | ||
| Down payments are racist. | ||
| Closing costs are racist. | ||
| Credit check is racist. | ||
| So what? | ||
| Is it just a free-for-all? | ||
| I'm struggling even to imagine how this is supposed to work. | ||
| But this is a story from NBC. | ||
| It's this quote. | ||
| Bank of America said that it is now offering first-time homebuyers in a select group of cities zero down payment, zero closing cost mortgages to help grow home ownership among black and Hispanic communities. | ||
| The option will first become available in certain neighborhoods in Charlotte, Dallas, Detroit, Los Angeles, and Miami. | ||
| Which are, by the way, some of the hottest, most expensive real estate markets In America. | ||
| L.A. | ||
| and Miami? | ||
| Dallas? | ||
| Detroit, not so much. | ||
| Charlotte, I don't know. | ||
| I think Charlotte's somewhat hot these days. | ||
| But L.A. | ||
| and Miami, notoriously the two most expensive or among the most expensive in the country. | ||
| Dallas, really hot right now. | ||
| Same thing. | ||
| Although a little bit more affordable. | ||
| With no money down, no closing cost. | ||
| In case you didn't. | ||
| In case you missed that part. | ||
| The new mortgage called the Community Affordable Loan Solution. | ||
| Community Affordable Loan Solution. | ||
| That's that. | ||
| Aims to help eligible individuals and families obtain an affordable loan to purchase a home, said the bank. | ||
| Applicants do not have to be black or Hispanic to qualify for the product. | ||
| And that's where I'm a little bit lost. | ||
| On the one hand, they're saying, you know, we're gonna give you these houses for no money for blacks and Hispanics, but also you don't have to be black and Hispanic? | ||
| So anybody could do it? | ||
| Well, why is it for blacks and Hispanics? | ||
| How are they going to market it and say this is for blacks and Hispanics? | ||
| I don't get it. | ||
| I'm sure you have to be black. | ||
| I'm sure you need to be black and Hispanic. | ||
| I'm sure that if you're not black enough, they're not giving it to you. | ||
| It says, quote, this is A.J. | ||
| Bartley, head of Neighborhood and Community Lending for Bank of America. | ||
| Neighborhood and Community Lending? | ||
| Ghetto! | ||
| I'm the head of Ghetto Lending. | ||
| said quote homeownership strengthens our communities and can help individuals and families to build wealth over time. | ||
| Our community affordable loan solution will help make the dream of sustained homeownerships attainable for more black and hispanic families and it is part of our broader commitment to the communities that we serve. | ||
| The loans require no mortgage insurance the additional fee typically charged to buyers who put down less than 20 percent of the purchase price and get this No minimum credit score. | ||
| Instead, like, so it's like it's just it's over. | ||
| It's over. | ||
| The country's over. | ||
| The country's over. | ||
| The dollar is over. | ||
| The economy is over. | ||
| You're over. | ||
| I'm over. | ||
| It's over. | ||
| What are we doing here? | ||
| What is this? | ||
| No mortgage insurance. | ||
| No minimum credit score. | ||
| No down payment. | ||
| No close. | ||
| What do they pay? | ||
| What are they paying? | ||
| Toenail clippings? | ||
| What are they even paying? | ||
| What do they pay? | ||
| What are they giving for the house? | ||
| I mean, where is the money coming from? | ||
| Where is the eligibility coming from? | ||
| What do they say? | ||
| I promise. | ||
| I got you. | ||
| I'll pay you back. | ||
| I'll pay you back. | ||
| I appreciate it. | ||
| I pay you back. | ||
| Is that? | ||
| Does it come from that? | ||
| Where does the eligibility come from? | ||
| How do we know these people are going to pay? | ||
| They're going to pay the principal of the interest. | ||
| Yeah, I'm mauling right now. | ||
| I'm completely seething over this. | ||
| It says, instead, eligibility will be based on factors like timely rent payments and on-time utility bills, phone and auto insurance payments. | ||
| Isn't that what your, well not quite, but isn't your credit score kind of like that? | ||
| Prospective buyers must also complete a homebuyer certification course provided by Bank of America. | ||
| Could you imagine? | ||
| Could you imagine a Bank of America classroom where you get a bunch of black people in there and they teach them about how to pay your bills on time? | ||
| How to pay your bills on time? | ||
| What are we doing, man? | ||
| This country sucks. | ||
| So they're doing a course provided by Bank of America and federally approved housing counseling partners before they apply for the loan program. | ||
| So Keisha and Daryl and Tyrell They're all going to go to their community and neighborhood lending department for a course and then they're going to look at their Obama phone payment plan and then they're going to give them a $750,000 house in Orange County with no money down and no other fees or payments or credit check. | ||
| And this is going to go really well. | ||
| I mean this is just, whoever thought this out is a really intelligent person. | ||
| And then we get some stats here. | ||
| It says the racial gap in homeownership rates in the United States remained substantial in 2020. | ||
| For white households, the homeownership rate was 72%, and that is compared to 51% for Hispanics and 43% for blacks. | ||
| The black homeownership rate was lower in 2020 than it was in 2010. | ||
| than it was in 2010. | ||
| And so, I mean, what even is there to say? | ||
| Well, for openers, let's just be serious for a moment. | ||
| For openers, this is literally, this is exactly what caused the housing crisis in 2006. | ||
| And one wonders if this is deliberate. | ||
| Because this is exactly what caused the housing crisis in 2006. | ||
| And if you don't know, in the 1990s under Bill Clinton, he instructed Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, who are two of the biggest home loan guarantors in the country, they're a quasi-public-private entity, the restrictions were loosened for Banks to give out loans for housing under the same premise, which is they wanted to make home ownership more affordable and more accessible, so they loosened restrictions. | ||
| They started giving out all, and I'm simplifying here, but they started giving out all of these loans to people that would not be able to pay them back. | ||
| Home ownership, you know, it's great and everything, and there are problems and there are obstacles in the way of home ownership. | ||
| You know, homes are expensive and And the cost of real estate has outpaced wages and that disparity has been growing over time. | ||
| There's problems there. | ||
| But that doesn't change the underlying economics of the fact that if you, you know, whether a home is cheap or expensive and whether that's fair or not fair, whatever the relative cost of the home versus real wages, it's really immaterial. | ||
| Someone can either pay for their mortgage or they can't. | ||
| Someone can either afford that or they can't. | ||
| And you establish that based on their income level, and you establish that based on their credit, and you establish that based on other factors. | ||
| And those are the factors that should determine, that is what should govern whether or not a bank will give out a loan. | ||
| Not whether or not the economy is not fair. | ||
| It sucks! | ||
| The economy's not fair. | ||
| And, you know, there's all kinds of reasons for that having to do with, like, for example, in California, there's tons of restrictions, particularly in Los Angeles and San Francisco, about building new homes. | ||
| And it makes it very difficult for them to build For them to build homes. | ||
| For them to build multi-family residences or apartment complexes. | ||
| It's a big problem. | ||
| And so homes become scarce. | ||
| And as a result, the cost of homes goes up. | ||
| Again, basic economics. | ||
| But that's really neither here nor there. | ||
| A person can either afford their mortgage or they can't. | ||
| Well, they give out all these loans. | ||
| And then by 2006, everybody starts defaulting on these loans. | ||
| And that's a big problem. | ||
| When all these people default on their loans, And they can't pay back the money and the bank's got to foreclose on all these houses, then prices collapse. | ||
| And then additionally, this precipitates a 2008 financial crisis because all of those bad loans were packaged up and they called these mortgage-backed security and a collateralized debt obligation. | ||
| They packaged up the loans and they sold these out. | ||
| To investors, particularly to pension funds and other funds, and they branded these as very safe investments. | ||
| They said, these are these are home loans. | ||
| It's a booming housing market. | ||
| The housing market never goes down. | ||
| There's all that, you know, homeownership is booming and people are paying back their loans. | ||
| And this is like a very safe investment. | ||
| There's there's so much value here. | ||
| When all these mortgages start going down back in 2006, then all of these funds which built their portfolio On these MBS CDOs, they start to explode too, and the whole thing melts down. | ||
| And again, it's a very complicated subject. | ||
| I'm simplifying it here. | ||
| But point being is, it's the same story here. | ||
| Now, there's a couple of steps that are missing right now, but giving out these loans to people that, like, we have no way to establish they could pay back their mortgage, it's the same deal. | ||
| It's the same mission of trying to make home ownership more affordable. | ||
| You know how you make home ownership more affordable? | ||
| Build more houses. | ||
| Build more houses. | ||
| That's how you do that. | ||
| Build more houses and maybe you regulate BlackRock and Chinese investors and prevent them from eating up the housing market. | ||
| That's the way that you could do it. | ||
| Stop immigration. | ||
| That's a good idea. | ||
| That would probably reduce the demand for housing. | ||
| There's a lot of things you could do, but giving out risky mortgages, that's not out. | ||
| So, I mean, that's for openers. | ||
| This just doesn't make any financial sense, and it really goes without saying. | ||
| They're going into Detroit. | ||
| They're going into LA. | ||
| They're going into Dallas and Miami, where it's all these minorities. | ||
| And they're saying, you're going to be able to buy a house. | ||
| Correct me if I'm wrong, this is how it's supposed to work. | ||
| Blacks and Hispanics who walk into Bank of America, in the hottest real estate, most expensive real estate in the country, and say, I want to buy this house. | ||
| I want to buy this expensive house. | ||
| I want to buy a half million dollar, million dollar home. | ||
| There's no minimum credit check. | ||
| They don't have to put any money down. | ||
| There's no mortgage insurance. | ||
| They don't have to pay closing costs. | ||
| So they don't have to... In other words, it's not even an investment for them. | ||
| There's not even an investment being made. | ||
| It's like the same thing when you buy a phone, except that it's a $750,000 million thing instead of a phone, which is $1,000. | ||
| It's like a payment plan on a PS5, but for a half million dollar home because you don't have to put anything down and you don't even need to... | ||
| Forget even a down payment. | ||
| You don't even need to pay a fee or insurance. | ||
| And then how they acquire the loan... | ||
| Again, it's like I guess they have to empty their pockets. | ||
| It's like okay Well, we've got a candy wrapper and a few $2 bills and an ID and you know Buffalo Wild Wings Rewards card and we've established based on that that we're gonna give you $500,000 To put towards a house? | ||
| Oh, and they have to take a class. | ||
| To tell them what? | ||
| Pay your bills? | ||
| What kind of a class exists that's going to get black people to pay their bills? | ||
| It just doesn't even make any sense. | ||
| So God only knows what the effect of all this is going to be, but this is the kind of thing... And I've been saying this on my show for a long time. | ||
| Things are just going to get worse in America. | ||
| Things like this, in an effort to... | ||
| Pursue these idealistic, liberal, lofty missions that can never be achieved. | ||
| Like equality will never be achieved. | ||
| Sorry, people aren't equal. | ||
| And if people aren't equal, they're not going to have equal levels of wealth, employment, income, etc. | ||
| People are not equal. | ||
| They do not have equal aptitudes, faculties, talents. | ||
| So why would blacks have the same amount of home ownership as whites? | ||
| If there's one individual and another individual, we wouldn't expect them to have comparable levels of things if they were unequal from the beginning. | ||
| So the same would be true of groups then. | ||
| Why would blacks as a group, and whites as a group, and Hispanics as a group, why would we expect them all to be equal in terms of their level of home ownership? | ||
| It's just an unrealistic expectation. | ||
| Because they didn't start equal for a variety of reasons. | ||
| So in pursuit of trying to equalize these things, or compensate, we're going to destroy the economy. | ||
| We're going to destroy the housing market. | ||
| Again, just like we did 30 years ago for this, and it's almost like cyclical. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| In the 1990s they said, things are going great, the economy's never been better, housing's never been better, so what the heck, we'll just give these sorry black people some houses. | ||
| And then we blew it up. | ||
| It's like the same thing with crime. | ||
| You know, in the 70s, 80s, and 90s you had historic levels of black crime. | ||
| And then we got draconian criminal justice laws. | ||
| We got Rudy Giuliani and we got the crime bill that Joe Biden passed, which Republicans don't like. | ||
| The 94 crime bill. | ||
| And they came in and they cleaned up the cities, and then the cities turned into Disney World. | ||
| And, you know, I've heard even comedians have done bits about how New York is so safe that it's not even fun anymore. | ||
| And after time, people say, wow, why did we even lock all these black people up in the first place? | ||
| Now the problem is mass incarceration. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| The cities are safe. | ||
| New York is safe. | ||
| Chicago is safe. | ||
| Let's let them out of jail. | ||
| And then we get an unprecedented crime wave, highest increase in crime in American history in the past few years. | ||
| Car jackings up 750% nationwide. | ||
| And they're like, oh yeah, that's why we locked them all up. | ||
| Oh yeah, that's why we didn't give them mortgages. | ||
| Oh yeah, that's why we locked all those people up. | ||
| Oh yeah, that's why we did what we did. | ||
| It's like cyclical. | ||
| But these are the ways in which society is going to get worse. | ||
| Because of the demographic change, because of the kind of regime that we have, the character and the motivations of the regime that we have, these are the ways in which the country is just going to get worse. | ||
| First time homebuyers, 0% down, such and such. | ||
| You know what's going to happen? | ||
| These houses are all going to get foreclosed on, I mean, within five years. | ||
| Watch, this is going to turn into another one of these cautionary tales, and in five years, these people are not going to pay their loans, and then you know who's going to go in and own them? | ||
| China, BlackRock, the banks that gave out the loans. | ||
| And really what you're looking at across the board is a is like a recapitulation just giving up all the wealth it's like the most regressive wealth transfer in modern history. | ||
| Now that's really what this is about is when you look at what's happened in the economy over the past 30 years one way to look at it is like profound mismanagement and bad decisions and and You know, a debt crisis and liquidity crisis and currency crisis. | ||
| Another way to look at it is that all of these policies, all these disasters, have really just moved the wealth from the hands of people into the hands of the banks and the firm owners. | ||
| That's like the real way to look at it. | ||
| And across the board you could look at it this way. | ||
| Like immigration is a good example. | ||
| All these immigrants come pouring in and this is reducing wages. | ||
| Necessarily. | ||
| Like, I don't care what any study says. | ||
| I don't need a study. | ||
| It's called supply and demand. | ||
| There's a labor market. | ||
| There's a market for labor, just like there's a market for lumber or copper or gold or Bitcoin or hamburgers. | ||
| There's a market for labor. | ||
| There's a supply of labor, which is the number of workers, and there's a demand for labor, and that's the number of jobs there are. | ||
| And the more that the supply of labor increases, the more people there are in the country, the lower the price is. | ||
| That's That's the law of supply and demand. | ||
| The more there is of something, the less people will pay for it. | ||
| And so if there's a glut of workers, if there's a glut of people coming in, wages are going to go down. | ||
| Again, you don't need a study to say that. | ||
| If there's one worker and 10 jobs, the 10 employers are going to compete for that worker and drive up wages and compensation. | ||
| If there's 100 workers and 10 jobs, the workers are going to be competing with each other, offering their labor for less and less. | ||
| And they'll be expendable. | ||
| Well, I'll take a pay cut. | ||
| I'll take less benefits. | ||
| I'll take no health care. | ||
| So we could compete for a small amount of jobs. | ||
| The basics apply in demand. | ||
| Now one way to look at immigration from an economic point of view is that this is a disaster and that this is making it so that working class people, people without a college degree, high school graduates, people in the interior of the country, people that would get those jobs in agriculture or The landscaping jobs, service jobs, whatever. | ||
| One way to look at it is that those people are out of a job and those people are now on welfare. | ||
| And if they had a job like that, they're competing for low wages that firms can afford to pay because there's just so much labor. | ||
| And so they've got to either take a low-paying job and get on welfare or they go on drugs or whatever. | ||
| And one way to describe that is this is a catastrophe. | ||
| This is a disaster. | ||
| Horrible policy. | ||
| Another way to look at it is that this is transferring the money that would have gone to workers This would have been labor cost, and the savings is now going to the people that own the firms that employ the most people. | ||
| And who are, what are the industries and what are the firms that employ the most people? | ||
| Federal government, Walmart, agriculture, farms, factories, manufacturing, McDonald's, the service jobs. | ||
| So if the labor cost is being cut, overall, in absolute terms, if they only have to pay $5 an hour as opposed to $15 an hour because there's so much labor, that means that money is not being paid out to people. | ||
| It's not going into income for people to support their family and build wealth over there. | ||
| It's instead being saved, and that saved money is accruing to the shareholders and the people that own the companies. | ||
| That's immigration. | ||
| And the same story is true about housing. | ||
| Look at the housing market. | ||
| Look at what's happened to the housing market in the past few years. | ||
| All the homes are being bought up now by major investment firms like BlackRock, Vanguard, being bought up by foreign investors from China. | ||
| Take a look at these real estate markets like, for example, in Montana. | ||
| When you see the people buying up all this land in Montana or Wyoming or Idaho and pushing the locals out, who's doing it? | ||
| It's all these rich people from LA or it's these firms buying up entire neighborhoods to rent them out for money. | ||
| And they're turning people from homeowners into renters. | ||
| They're buying up all the capital, which is the homes. | ||
| They're buying up all the hard assets and renting them out to the serfs. | ||
| So people will go and rent a home and work at a low wage job And it's like that World Economic Forum article. | ||
| They're going to own nothing and be happy. | ||
| They'll have no assets, but they'll be able to make a small income, make no money from saving because interest rates are so low or were so low historically. | ||
| They're going to rent their homes. | ||
| That's the most thing that people, that's a store of value, is investing into a home. | ||
| They're not going to have that. | ||
| And again, one way to look at that is this is a catastrophe for the economy, the housing bust, the financial meltdown, what's going to happen here. | ||
| Another way to look at it is all the homes are being bought up, all the assets are being bought up, and so really it's working out for the rich. | ||
| Same thing with COVID. | ||
| It was the largest transfer of wealth in human history where the world's billionaires became trillions of dollars richer and everybody else became poorer. | ||
| Amazon did very well during the COVID recession. | ||
| Amazon did well, Apple did well, Facebook, all the big tech companies, the S&P 5, they call it, the top five companies on the S&P 500. | ||
| All the companies on the NASDAQ did very well. | ||
| The companies that stayed open, that is, and were enclosed by the government, And this is part of that. | ||
| And, by the way, so, and anyway, so that, to be serious, that's like the effect. | ||
| The other, the other cartoonish angle on this is that this is the extent to which we're gonna bend over backwards to accommodate black people. | ||
| At what point are we gonna say enough is enough? | ||
| This is explicitly geared towards black people. | ||
| At what point do you say that we're living in an apartheid state? | ||
| I know, again, that sounds like hyperbolic or like an exaggeration, but seriously. | ||
| American Express has a class action lawsuit against it because they're giving all their jobs to black people. | ||
| And it's bossy black people bullying white people in the vice president positions and they've got quotas on their board and quotas in their executive leadership. | ||
| And then we hear two days later Bank of America goes out and says we're giving away mortgages if you're black. | ||
| We're just giving them away. | ||
| Literally. | ||
| We're giving them away. | ||
| Don't put any, I mean, don't put any money down? | ||
| What does being black have to do with putting money down for a house? | ||
| A house is, for most people, the most expensive investment that they'll make. | ||
| It's their biggest monthly expense, it's the biggest quote-unquote asset that they'll have in their life. | ||
| What about being black means that you don't need to go in, you don't need to have any skin in the game, you don't need to invest any money into what would be, in a lot of these cities, a $250,000, $500,000, $750,000 home? | ||
| What does one have to do with the other? | ||
| You can't put down $10,000? | ||
| You can't put down 7%? | ||
| You can't put down 20%? | ||
| And if you can't put down 20% then they don't even have to pay insurance and no closing costs? | ||
| Well who's gonna cover the closing costs then? | ||
| The bank? | ||
| I don't get it. | ||
| So I guess they're just getting all that for free. | ||
| The bank is going to put up money to give over free investment advice. | ||
| They're going to cover the closing costs. | ||
| are going to cover the cost if blacks are not able to make the payments because there's no insurance. | ||
| I just, you know, they're just giving it away based on the fact that they're black. | ||
| I don't think that was ever part of the bargain. | ||
| And that's in addition to, and we've covered a million stories like this this year, at the beginning, or I guess since Biden's become president. | ||
| Last year, we heard that all of the COVID stimulus, all of it, from Biden's stimulus plan, or at least the restaurant stimulus, the agricultural stimulus, and I think there was one other particular kind, All of them were prioritized for black and hispanic and other racial minorities to receive the funds first. | ||
| They wouldn't even process white people's applications until all the black and hispanic and other underprivileged people's applications were processed. | ||
| And all the funds ran out before a single white application was processed. | ||
| So the government's just giving their stimulus money. | ||
| And, you know, we covered a story recently, I think. | ||
| I think it was in the last military authorization bill, or it was another big spending bill. | ||
| The one that they just got through with the budgetary rule in the Senate, they got it through with 51 votes. | ||
| I forget if it was the infrastructure bill or some other bill. | ||
| But you had like $300 billion for climate, you had $200 billion for this, and then they literally had in there $50 billion just for minorities. | ||
| Like, it said nothing other than that. | ||
| It said, well, we're gonna throw in, it's this big climate bill, $300 billion for climate, it's gonna be $100 billion for EV, and $100 billion for this, and $50 billion for environmental impact on blacks and Hispanics. | ||
| It was just like, it was just $50 billion just for blacks for being black. | ||
| Just for blacks and Hispanics for being non-white. | ||
| So the COVID money goes to the blacks and Hispanics. | ||
| The environmental money goes to the blacks and Hispanics. | ||
| They account for 6% of the tax revenue, 26% of the outflows coming from the government in the form of entitlements and welfare and other cash payments. | ||
| And then on top of it, then the private institutions are doing this as well. | ||
| Things like this, free mortgages. | ||
| And then, I don't know if you saw, they're also doing this on YouTube. | ||
| They started up a program for black creators where if you're a small black youtuber small black creator on YouTube with like a thousand subscribers You can apply for this program and they send you a camera. | ||
| They send you a microphone They give you access to advisors to tell you how to work the algorithm and it's like But we still hear oh systemic racism systemic rope Blacks have it so hard. | ||
| Blacks have it easier than anybody in the history of mankind right now. | ||
| A black person with average intelligence could get a full ride to an Ivy League school. | ||
| They could get a free camera from YouTube. | ||
| They could get a free mortgage from Bank of America. | ||
| They could get promoted through the ranks in American Express. | ||
| They could become the vice president in the Biden administration. | ||
| They get the COVID stimulus and they get it forgiven. | ||
| For being black, and what do us stupid-ass white people get other than to subsidize all of this? | ||
| Other than to subsidize all of this by paying the taxes, subsidize all of this by, we're the ones working the jobs, we're the ones being the cops, we're the ones paying the speeding tickets, and so on. | ||
| It just isn't right. | ||
| It just isn't right. | ||
| We live now, if we lived in a racist country before, now we live in the opposite of a racist country. | ||
| We live in an anti-white country, where at one point blacks were the slaves, now whites are the slaves. | ||
| That's what it is. | ||
| Whites are the slaves. | ||
| Whites are not getting handouts. | ||
| Nobody cares about whites. | ||
| Nobody's giving the whites a break. | ||
| You know what whites get? | ||
| Whites get their entire city destroyed by offshoring. | ||
| Whites get their entire city destroyed by big pharma and drug abuse. | ||
| They get no money from the federal government. | ||
| They get no scholarships. | ||
| They get no benefits in schools. | ||
| They get priced out of school, priced out of housing by foreigners, Jews, and the government. | ||
| And they wind up shooting themselves, getting addicted to heroin and dying, or they marry a nurse and they become some cuck faggot where their wife makes more money than them because the biggest employer in town is a hospital and a school. | ||
| And that's what they get. | ||
| And then they get to go and they get to watch She-Hulk twerking with Megan Thee Stallion. | ||
| And they get to watch Obi-Wan schooled by an 8-year-old girl. | ||
| And they get to watch Hilary Clinton sing Hallelujah on SNL on their iPad. | ||
| That's what whites get. | ||
| We are now the slaves. | ||
| We work. | ||
| We pay the taxes. | ||
| Blacks don't work. | ||
| They don't even have to put money down on houses. | ||
| They get free money all the time. | ||
| And they get the proceeds of our labor. | ||
| You know how much money I paid in taxes last year? | ||
| I paid over $100,000 in taxes last year. | ||
| And I've also paid over $100,000 in legal fees because I'm being investigated by the FBI for doing nothing wrong. | ||
| Close to $200,000 in legal fees since January 6th because of the FBI investigation, the no-fly list, subpoena, everything like that. | ||
| So think of it. | ||
| I'm an American that creates value. | ||
| I'm an American that works hard, pays lots of money in taxes. | ||
| I'm a law-abiding citizen. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| I'm an investor. | ||
| I'm a peaceful person. | ||
| I'm a safe person, right? | ||
| And what do I get? | ||
| Speeding tickets. | ||
| Parking tickets. | ||
| I get investigated by the FBI. | ||
| I get subpoenaed by Congress. | ||
| I get banned from banks, I get banned, you know, now I don't want to just turn in all my problems, but think of it, like that's what it's like for white people. | ||
| Trump supporters, conservatives, white people, but if you're like a black liberal, just they roll out the red carpet for you. | ||
| Unreal. | ||
| So anyway, so that's Bank of America. | ||
| Gotta love it, gotta love it. | ||
| We all should just become black now. | ||
| We should all just start getting in blackface, and let's just start, honestly though, On a practical note, I don't think there's anything ethically wrong with abusing the system. | ||
| Like, I think that you just gotta get in while you can. | ||
| Take out student loans, don't pay them. | ||
| Take out student loans, wait for them to get forgiven. | ||
| Take out a ton of money in student loans and invest it in crypto, you know. | ||
| Take out a bunch of money in student loans and then move to another country. | ||
| Take out $500,000, I don't know how it works. | ||
| Take out hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loans and then just leave. | ||
| Then just go move to Mexico. | ||
| That's what I would do. | ||
| If I were like a normie, I would take out $200,000 in student loans and then I'd move to Mexico. | ||
| And I would pretend to be black and I'd get a big home loan from Bank of America. | ||
| I'm sure it doesn't work exactly like this. | ||
| But I'd get a big home loan and then I'd just move to Mexico. | ||
| I borrow a million dollars being I'd be like, hi, I'm black. | ||
| Can I have a million dollars? | ||
| I'll pay it back. | ||
| I promise. | ||
| I'll take your I'll take your stupid class. | ||
| And look, I paid my Obama phone bill on time. | ||
| Can I have a million dollars? | ||
| I promise I'll pay it back. | ||
| And then I'll move to Mexico City and retire. | ||
| That's what I would do if I were you. | ||
| I go to the government. | ||
| I go to Bank of America. | ||
| I get I get credit cards. | ||
| I get a student loan. | ||
| I get a home loan. | ||
| I get my Obama phone. | ||
| I get my Obama laptop. | ||
| My Obama gaming PC, my Obamacare, I get my Obama car, I would get all my stuff from the government and then I move to Mexico. | ||
| And then when they send me letters, I would just rip them up and laugh. | ||
| That's what I would do. | ||
| And honestly, there's nothing wrong with it anymore because if you're not cheating the system, you're just an idiot. | ||
| You're just a dumb sucker with a misplaced sense of honor. | ||
| There's nothing honorable about this system. | ||
| You're a slave. | ||
| You're a slave to people that hate you. | ||
| They hate you and you're giving them your money. | ||
| They hate you and you're working for them and you're giving them all your money like a bitch. | ||
| You're a bitch. | ||
| If you work a job... | ||
| You're just like, and you don't have any kind of scam going on, you're just like a bitch because you're getting in your car, you're driving to work, you're paying your gas, you're paying your tax, and you work so that you can live, and all the tax money you give is going to Israel, it's going to Ukraine, Taiwan, and it's going to the black guy that is going to steal your car and kill you, potentially, and kill your kids. | ||
| Like that's what it is. | ||
| That's what America's become. | ||
| So we don't owe the system anything. | ||
| We don't owe the government anything. | ||
| We don't owe them anything. | ||
| They're gonna hire 100,000 IRS agents to make sure we pay our taxes, but blacks don't pay taxes and they get a free mortgage. | ||
|

|
Okay. | |
| Anyway, so that's that. | ||
| But I want to move on. | ||
| I want to get into I want to get into this social media story because I feel like we're going to run out of time again if I don't cut that one off. | ||
| So our feature story is about Big Tech and like I said, whoops, this just goes way beyond like I think anything that anybody imagined, even on our side, about how bad the collusion is. | ||
| And I was supposed to talk about this tomorrow, or rather yesterday. | ||
| We ran out of time. | ||
| But this is all 100% legit. | ||
| This is 100% official. | ||
| This comes from Meta, which is the Facebook company itself. | ||
| This comes from the White House. | ||
| According to this new lawsuit, which has been launched by the state attorney general in Missouri, we've now got hard evidence that there are people throughout the Biden administration and throughout big tech that are in constant communication with each other. | ||
| YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter all have dozens of contacts throughout the Biden administration. | ||
| And when I say throughout, I don't mean like there's a lot of people. | ||
| I mean like in every department. | ||
| There are people in the Treasury Department. | ||
| There are people in the Defense Department. | ||
| There are people in the Press Office. | ||
| There are people in the State Department. | ||
| When I say throughout, I mean in all facets of the government are in contact with the biggest social media companies, the biggest big tech companies in America. | ||
| Particularly talking to them about content moderation. | ||
| This is something that we were led to believe can't happen, doesn't happen, isn't happening, can't happen. | ||
| They tell us that there's the public sector and the private sector. | ||
| And the public sector is governed by the Constitution, in this case like the First Amendment, and the private sector isn't. | ||
| And the public sector represents one form of power, and the private sector is maybe sympathetic, but different. | ||
| I've argued for years that that's ridiculous. | ||
| There's no meaningful distinction. | ||
| They are inextricably bound up together. | ||
| Inextricably means they cannot be untangled. | ||
| They cannot be separated. | ||
| They're inextricably bound up by many different kinds of things. | ||
| For example, federal government contracts. | ||
| All of the big tech companies, their biggest customer is the federal government. | ||
| The Federal Government contracts with Google, contracts with Apple, contracts with Amazon. | ||
| I don't think a lot of people even know that. | ||
| When people think of Amazon, they think of, maybe they used to think of books, maybe now they think of Amazon Prime, maybe they think about, you know, two-day shipping or something, e-commerce. | ||
| But one of Amazon's largest customers is the federal government. | ||
| And the federal government's contracting with Amazon for their artificial intelligence and for logistics and all kinds of things. | ||
| Same thing with Apple. | ||
| Federal government's contracting with Apple. | ||
| Where do you think the government gets their phones? | ||
| Where do you think the government gets their tech? | ||
| They buy their tech from tech companies. | ||
| If the federal government is a technological enterprise, and it is, federal government is the biggest employer in America, and if the federal government is in the business of computers and phones, what, do you think they make their own computers and phones? | ||
| Do you think they buy them from overseas? | ||
| The federal government buys their tech from Big Tech. | ||
| The federal government's the biggest customer of Big Tech, or one of them, and it doesn't just invest in these companies purchasing things from them. | ||
| It collaborates with these companies, and it collaborates with Big Tech on AI, and it collaborates with Big Tech on surveillance, and it collaborates with Big Tech on R&D, and defense, and national security, and so Facebook and Amazon and Apple are just as much a part of the national security apparatus actually as Lockheed Martin or Raytheon, which are defense contractors. | ||
| You know, people talk about how we went to war in Vietnam so that the defense contractors could make money because, you know, you send in helicopters into Vietnam and you blow up Vietnam with missiles and somebody's selling the missiles, somebody's selling the helicopters. | ||
| And you go to Iraq, and you gotta bring helicopters and missiles and tanks and bullets, and guess who wins? | ||
| The people that make helicopters and bullets and tanks. | ||
| If they're in Iraq and Afghanistan, and they have military vehicles idling for 20 years, again, who profits? | ||
| And people understand that. | ||
| People understand, okay, the tank companies make money off the wars. | ||
| The tank companies have to work with the DOD. | ||
| $700-$800 billion military budget per year, and where's that money being spent? | ||
| Well, yeah, some of it on wages and some of it on other things, maintenance. | ||
| But how much of that $800 billion per year, that's a huge sum of money, how much of that $800 billion is going to, like, three firms? | ||
| And who's making money off of that, right? | ||
| Well, people understand that, but the relationship between Big Tech and the DOD and the State Department and the others, increasingly it's as connected, if not more connected. | ||
| So you've got they sell the phones, they collaborate in R&D and other things, but then you've also got it's the same people. | ||
| The Biden administration is full of people that used to work for big tech, people that used to work for Facebook, people who used to work for Google. | ||
| Take a cursory look at the Biden cabinet. | ||
| People on the transition team in 2020, now people in the cabinet, I think the chief of staff used to work at Google or one of those companies. | ||
| So when I say they're inextricably bound up, I don't mean like the people at Google are liberal. | ||
| I mean that Google and Amazon and Apple, they do so much business with the government, there's not a meaningful distinction between them and the government. | ||
| They're like another branch of the government. | ||
| They're like another wing of the government. | ||
| And we've always known that. | ||
| And I've argued that for years. | ||
| People are arguing on the left that that's not happening. | ||
| People on the right are arguing that Twitter's a private company and therefore, you know, they shouldn't be subject to certain things and yada yada yada. | ||
| Well now we have the proof. | ||
| And this is according to the New York Post. | ||
| It says, quote, the Biden administration worked in tandem with social media giants like Facebook and Twitter to censor statements they deemed misinformation about topics including the COVID-19 pandemic, according to two Republican state attorneys general on Thursday, as they pushed for the release of emails between top executive branch officials and big tech titans. | ||
| In a petition filed on Wednesday in Louisiana Federal Court, State Attorney General Jeff Landry and his Missouri counterpart Eric Schmidt charged that dozens of federal officials across at least 11 federal agencies engaged in a massive, sprawling federal censorship enterprise with the intent and effect of pressuring social media platforms to censor and suppress private speech that federal officials disfavor. | ||
| The Biden Administration has not been shy about leaning on social media. | ||
| On July 15, 2021, then White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki admitted her colleagues were flagging problematic posts for Facebook that spread disinformation. | ||
| She said, quote, it's important to take faster action against harmful posts and Facebook needs to move more quickly to remove harmful, violative posts. | ||
| The following day, Biden accused platforms like Facebook of killing people by allowing so-called misinformation to propagate unchecked. | ||
| Shortly after Biden's comments and email from an unidentified Facebook official to Surgeon General Vivek Murthy read in part, quote, So Facebook's emailing the government and saying, uh, what is your expectation about censorship? | ||
| going forward. | ||
| So Facebook's emailing the government and saying, what is your expectation about censorship? | ||
| Like they're a subsidiary of the government. | ||
| That's not how private, do private companies reach out to the government and say, hey, tell us what you want us to censor? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| That's not private in any meaningful way. | ||
| Seven days later, on July 23rd, the same Facebook official proudly informed officials at the Department of Health and Human Services that the company was taking action against a group dubbed the Disinformation Dozen for their posts about COVID vaccines. | ||
| The email said, quote, we removed 17 additional pages, groups, and Instagram accounts tied to the disinfo dozen. | ||
| So a total of 39 profiles, pages, groups, and Instagram accounts deleted thus far, resulting in every member of the dozen having had at least one such entity removed. | ||
| We also expanded the group of false claims that we removed to keep up with recent trends of misinformation that we are seeing. | ||
| The relationship was so cozy that on July... so cozy... that on July 20th, 2021, White House COVID response team digital director Clark Humphrey received a response from Facebook in seconds when he asked about getting a fake Dr. Anthony Fauci Instagram account taken down. | ||
| Humphrey wrote to Facebook along with a link to the account, Hi there, any way we could get this pulled down? | ||
| It's not actually one of ours. | ||
| Yep, on it! | ||
| The answer came back within seconds! | ||
| Within seconds! | ||
| Another email from April 2021 shows a scheduled meeting for White House staffers to be briefed by Twitter on vaccine misinformation. | ||
| Still another record from July 28th of that year shows a Facebook official proposing to a CDC counterpart that quote, in addition to our weekly meetings, doing a monthly misinfo debunking meeting With maybe claim topics communicated a few days prior so that you can bring in the matching experts and chat casually for 30 minutes or so. | ||
| Yes, we would love that said the CDC. | ||
| The AGs say that they have identified at least 45 people within the HHS and the DHS alone. | ||
| 45 people in Health and Human Services and Homeland Security alone. | ||
| 45 just in those two agencies. | ||
| They also claim that officials at other agencies, including the Census Bureau, the FDA, the FBI, the State Department, and the Treasury Department, were at least aware of the censorship enterprise. | ||
| In addition to the document dump, MEDA has disclosed that at least 32 officials, including workers at the FDA, U.S. | ||
| Electronic Assistance Commission, and the White House, have communicated with the company about content moderation But those contacts weren't disclosed in the government's disclosures, according to the two Attorney Generals. | ||
| YouTube disclosed contacts with 11 officials, some of which weren't shared by the government in response to the lawsuit. | ||
| So, it's not even a question anymore. | ||
| There is abject, far-reaching, thorough collusion between Big Tech and the government on contact. | ||
| Not on national security, not, I mean, They're intervening the government is directly intervening and giving orders on what should and should not be on the platforms. | ||
| To the point where and it's like in this email like that I can't get over this one they reach out and say hey in addition to our weekly meetings can we also do 30 minutes with So they're having weekly meetings? | ||
| Facebook and the government are having weekly meetings about the disinfo that they need to censor. | ||
| That's what's implied. | ||
| Then they say, well, let's talk more. | ||
| And that's from a year ago. | ||
| A year ago, they're saying, hey, the weekly meetings we're having about what to censor is not enough. | ||
| We need more 30 minute meetings to censor more and learn more. | ||
| And this is in the Homeland Security Department, this is in HHS, the Treasury, the FDA, the State Department, the DoD. | ||
| And this just vindicates what I've been saying on the show for years. | ||
| They're all part of the regime. | ||
| There is no meaningful distinction between these entities. | ||
| They're in bed together. | ||
| Literally. | ||
| It's the same people. | ||
| They're on the phone with each other. | ||
| They're all Democrats. | ||
| Frankly, they're all Jews, or a lot of them are Jews. | ||
| They're calling each other up. | ||
| They're coordinating. | ||
| They're colluding. | ||
| They lobby the politicians. | ||
| They work for the politicians. | ||
| The politicians leave and then go work for them. | ||
| It's incestuous. | ||
| And you've got to add to it even on top of that. | ||
| It's like you look at the major think tanks and NGOs which are used as a tool by the CIA and the State Department. | ||
| That's another form of how they influence things. | ||
| They fund NGOs and think tanks like the Atlantic Council or the Democracy Institute or whatever. | ||
| They fund these think tanks. | ||
| They fund these non-governmental organizations, non-profits that create these policy papers and hold conferences and symposiums and things like that. | ||
| And those are the people that go and create the moderation guidelines at these companies. | ||
| So when Facebook goes and says, you know, I want to create a content moderation policy that is against disinformation and yada, yada. | ||
| Who are the experts they're gonna contract with to build the policies? | ||
| The Atlanta Council or NGOs like that. | ||
| And those NGOs are funded by the government and full of people from the government. | ||
| And it's almost not even fair to say from the government. | ||
| You could equally say the government is from the NGOs. | ||
| And so on. | ||
| And so all of the entities are connected. | ||
| They're connected by money, they're connected by personnel, they email each other, they all share the same agenda. | ||
| If this doesn't show you what's going on, how the censorship agenda on Big Tech has aligned with the government agenda, how the government agenda has lined up with the the broader globalist agenda, It's so curious that after Trump won the election, it's almost like Google and Facebook and Twitter and the Democrats and the regular media companies all got together and said, yeah, this guy can never hold power ever again. | ||
| And undertook, over the course of five years, to ban every prominent Trump supporter, ban Trump himself, ban everything that Trump ran on, ban him from talking about election fraud or COVID or BLM or war with Russia. | ||
| And then ultimately do the final, the coup de grace, which is to prevent him from running with the FBI raid and this DOJ investigation here after the midterms. | ||
| It's all connected. | ||
| It's all part of the same agenda. | ||
| And here's the proof. | ||
| And where are all these people, where are all these liberals? | ||
| On a story like this, you get a lot of liberals out there, and the most they might say is something like, you know, oh yeah, censorship goes too far, or I'm in favor of free speech. | ||
| Yeah, it's like not enough to be in favor of free speech. | ||
| It's really, it's, and again, it's not even so much about free speech so much as it is about this collusion. | ||
| That's what it's really about here. | ||
| It's not about we need a platform that has free speech. | ||
| We need The media companies to not be run by the FBI. | ||
| We need the social media companies to not be run by the Democrat Party and the Federal Reserve and the Jew Illuminati. | ||
| Like that's what needs to happen here. | ||
| It's not like, I don't think Twitter cares about free speech or expression. | ||
| Excuse me. | ||
| Or anything like that. | ||
| The only things they ban are dissent. | ||
| Free speech is not like something that we like or whatever. | ||
| They're not banning people from making fun of Biden. | ||
| They're banning energized, influential dissent. | ||
| And they're doing that because they're an arm of the regime. | ||
| So a censorship action is an act against dissent and it's an act of the regime. | ||
| When people go out there and say, it's a private company and they just have these left-wing policies, it's not a private company independent with a bias. | ||
| It's a completely dependent public entity that is using censorship power to benefit the establishment and the status quo. | ||
| And so suffice to say, when people say, oh, we'll just make our own site, well that betrays the complete naivete about the situation. | ||
| The problem is not the private company banned me, the problem is they're crushing all dissent. | ||
| And so if a private company bans you, you'd be like, oh, I'll build my own site. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wait, what the? | |
| I got banned by Amazon Web Service, I got banned by the App Store, I got banned by the banks, etc. | ||
| You know, that doesn't really work with that narrative. | ||
| I'll just start my own thing. | ||
| It's like, well, insofar as the regime controls all these institutions, insofar as the regime controls public and private life, that's not gonna work. | ||
| Insofar as the regime controls all of public and private life through the government and all the private entities like the media, the social media, the finance, You're not going anywhere. | ||
| You're not making any money, and you're not winning any hearts and minds. | ||
| It's like, look what they did to Andrew Tate. | ||
| That guy wasn't even political! | ||
| He was on there just telling people, like, hey, punch a bitch in the face. | ||
| And he got banned from everything all at once, and then got banned from the payment processors. | ||
| And look at him on the Google search traffic. | ||
| And he was like this, and now he's like this. | ||
| Because they just made a decision. | ||
| Because they, again, they didn't like his message. | ||
| And it had nothing to do with, oh, they're an independent company with a liberal bias. | ||
| No. | ||
| They're all working together. | ||
| Independent company with a liberal bias? | ||
| They all got together! | ||
| That's not independent, and that's not private, and that's not a bias. | ||
| That doesn't explain all these entities working in a conspiratorial manner like that, in a way they're clearly colluding. | ||
| All the media, social media, government banks, all tag-teaming the guy at the same time in one week shows that speaking on the internet is not being on a private company and talking. | ||
| It's like standing in a government office. | ||
| You might as well be on a government sanction. | ||
| It's like going on NPR and trying to say, you know, Biden's a criminal and a pedo or something. | ||
| That's why it's not going to work. | ||
| Because we live in a totalitarian society. | ||
| It doesn't look like China quite, but it's very similar. | ||
| So anyway, so that's that. | ||
| That's the evidence straight up. | ||
| Anybody tells you a private company, show them this. | ||
| Oh, they're a private company? | ||
| Well, their existence is protected by federal law and they're receiving direction from the federal government and their federal contractors. | ||
| So you tell me how that makes them meaningfully a private company. | ||
| I'm a private person. | ||
| You want to know why I'm a private person? | ||
| Because I don't get direction from the federal government. | ||
| I'm not a federal contractor. | ||
| And my existence is not protected by the federal government. | ||
| All those things are true about every one of the big tech companies. | ||
| And when I say their existence, I'm talking about the Communications Act in 96. | ||
| What is it? | ||
| Communications Decency Act, Section 230. | ||
| Which says that they would be shielded from legal liability for the content on their platforms because there's a public interest in having information on these platforms or something like that. | ||
| It said that there's a public interest served. | ||
| This is like good for democracy because there's information that could be posted. | ||
| So there's a provision in federal law which shields them from legal liability which is not true of New York Times or NBC or other media companies. | ||
| So these are government protected monopolies, federal contractors, and now proven literally receiving direction on editorial moderation decisions coming from the White House, coming from the Press Secretary, coming from the Defense Department, coming from Health and Human Services. | ||
| So the First Amendment should apply. | ||
| And the only way where it's going to change is if you change the law or take over the companies through the government. | ||
| That's the only solution. | ||
| So anyway, so that's that, but we're gonna move on. | ||
| I want to get on into our Super Chats and we'll see what you guys have to say about all that. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, to me, at this point, I look at this kind of stuff and I just, like, shrug my shoulders. | ||
| I'm like, whatever. |
