Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the war room. | |
| It is the 27th of May, the year 2020. | ||
| My name is Harrison Smith, sitting in today for Owen Schroyer. | ||
| A lot of exciting stuff to talk about today. | ||
| Today was sort of supposed to be, and it will continue to be later on in the show, focused primarily on the effect that the shutdown has had on small businesses and the struggle that small businesses are under, the We're good to go. | ||
| There are a great many stories going on today. | ||
| One of the primary ones I have up here, we see a live shot of the SpaceX rocket that is set to be launched momentarily, scheduled for about 3.30 Central Standard Time. | ||
| We'll be keeping an eye on that. | ||
| Of course, the weather has been an issue with this launch, and it may be aborted at the last minute for the safety of the astronauts who will be embarking upon this launch. | ||
| So... We'll be keeping an eye on that and keeping you updated and we will be watching it live if it does in fact happen 30 minutes from now. | ||
| In the meantime, I'm going to go to this clip. | ||
| This is Alex Jones. He's channeling Bill Gates while he's at the shooting range. | ||
| Here's Alex Jones. Alex Jones here in Austin, Texas with my buddy Tim, and he's a little bit better shot than I am with handguns. | ||
| I'm a pretty good shot with most handguns and revolvers, but with this Smith& Wesson 500 I bought about four years ago, I just can't seem to hit the side of a barn door. | ||
| And yes, a lot of people claim that handguns and rifles have big kicks. | ||
| I've not experienced that even hand-holding bare 50 cows and shooting them repeatedly. | ||
| But this baby does hurt my wrist, so hopefully he can show me how to shoot more accurately and how to not hurt my wrist. | ||
| So first I'm going to shoot it how I normally would, and then Tim's going to give me some tips. | ||
| That clacked my teeth. | ||
| I'm gonna be a wimp today. You've seen me shoot once, now Tim can. | ||
| We're gonna test out this made in China double barrel shotgun. | ||
| If anything ever is going to blow up in your face, this is it, so we pray to the good Lord it doesn't happen. | ||
| Pretty fun. It was so close, the wadding went through it, except for a few pellets up and up. | ||
|

|
That's a good group. Greg Reese from Infowars.com. | |
| Just got kind of my dream gun right here. | ||
| It is a Galil Ace pistol in 5.56. | ||
| Israel IWI Middletown PA. Very excited. | ||
| This will be my first time shooting it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I just rough sighted it in with a laser barrel boar sight. | |
| And now we're gonna see how the sights are here, how it shoots. | ||
| So the idea, Tim, is to hit the head, not the body. | ||
| It's like the body's a hostage. | ||
| I'm gonna try to shoot the bad skeleton man and not the hostage. | ||
|
unidentified
|
First I was dead on, only hitting the hostage taker. | |
| Until I realized there were too many people that Bill Gates and the Clintons and others are right. | ||
| Jeffrey Epstein's right. Everybody has to die, including the children. | ||
| That's why I decided to go ahead and kill this archetypal child to save the earth from humans. | ||
| Both the adults and the children must die. | ||
| Hail Bill Gates! Hail the post-human error! | ||
| Death to all! We need more child death! | ||
|
unidentified
|
things like producing Child to Death, things like producing Child to Death, things like producing Child to Death. | |
| Man, that video! | ||
| That is a, that was a rare image of Alex Jones in a fedora, something I'd never seen before. | ||
| Of course, he's also wearing personally my favorite shirt from the InfoWars store. | ||
| That's the Join or Die shirt. | ||
| You can get that at InfoWarsStore.com. | ||
| Stay with us, folks. We got rocket launches. | ||
| We got war with China. | ||
| We got Twitter censorship. | ||
| It's all coming down today on The War Room. | ||
| Don't go anywhere, folks. | ||
| We'll be back in one minute with all of today's top stories. | ||
| Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the War Room. | ||
| This is Harrison Smith sitting in today for Owen Schroer. | ||
| It's the 27th of May 2020, and I'm so glad you're here with us today. | ||
| We are monitoring the rocket launch, which should be taking place in a little less than half an hour. | ||
| And as soon as that happens, or if there are any developments in that regard, I will bring them to you as soon as I get them. | ||
| In the meantime, there is a lot of other stuff to talk about, including a grim milestone that we either met today or yesterday, depending on how you count the numbers. | ||
| That is 100,000 dead from COVID within America. | ||
| We'll break down some of the numbers, where exactly these deaths are occurring, and to whom they are occurring. | ||
| And we'll break down all of that and more, but first I want to see what the mainstream media does with this, in case you are a regular viewer of Infowars. | ||
| It's not a surprise, quite frankly, that they will take Any tragedy, any large number of dead, any catastrophe to strike America and use it as a wedge to divide and put forward their own diabolical political agenda. | ||
| And of course the coronavirus is no exception. | ||
| In fact, it may be the archetype for everything else that they do, the way they have taken this Again, catastrophe, this disaster that has struck us, and used it in order to put forward every single one of their agendas that they have longed for for such a long time. | ||
| Everything from destroying our privacy to destroying our small businesses, which we will be discussing at length in the second hour, to taking over our healthcare, just everything and anything, especially censorship, that's another one that they're squeezing in there. | ||
| So how are they going to try to use this 100,000 number? | ||
| Of course, they're going to use it to try to destroy Donald Trump and blame him for everything. | ||
| Luckily, Donald Trump has recently Put Michaela, I'm sorry, what is her name? | ||
| Kayla McKinney as the new White House spokesperson. | ||
| And she is doing an incredible job at smacking down the fake news hyenas, the jackals that are constantly pestering her. | ||
| So here they are trying to destroy Donald Trump by using 100,000 dead Americans upon which they stand to shout their nonsense. | ||
| And here she is batting them away, Kayla McKinney. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're about to cross the 100,000 dead American milestone. | |
| What does the White House view as having, by Election Day, what does the White House view as the number of dead Americans where you can say that you've successfully defeated this pandemic? | ||
| Is there a number? Yeah, you know, every loss of life counts. | ||
| We say 100,000, but like the president says, you know, one death is something to be mourned. | ||
| These 100,000 individuals have a face. | ||
| The president takes this very seriously. | ||
| It's why he lowered the flag to half-staff for three days to remember these men and women. | ||
| I think, you know, Dr. | ||
| Birx said it best when she said that In their estimates, they had anywhere between 1.5 and 2.2 million people in the U.S. succumbing to the virus if we didn't shut down the economy. | ||
| The president made the very hard choice of shutting down the economy, so we avoided that extraordinary number. | ||
| One death is too many. | ||
| We never want to see a single individual lose their life. | ||
| But that being said, to be under significantly that high mark shows that the president did everything in his power and helped to make this number as low as humanly possible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
When voters go to the polls in November and they want to judge the President on his response to this pandemic, what is the number of dead Americans that they should tolerate and where they can argue that, yes, he successfully defeated the pandemic? | |
| I think, you know, you're asking the wrong question. | ||
| The right question is, where did the data... | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's the question I'm trying to ask, Kayleigh. | |
| So please don't tell me why I'm asking the wrong question. | ||
| And I answered your question once, but if you ask it twice, it doesn't make it any better of a question. | ||
| So I'll respond in kind. | ||
| I've given you one answer. | ||
| I'll continue to extrapolate upon that, that he always listened to the science. | ||
| The president, when Dr. Fauci and Dr. | ||
| Birx said, you need to shut down the economy, that was hard for the president. | ||
| You know, in a typical year, 120,000 people die of suicide and drug overdose. | ||
| It's in a typical year. | ||
| And doctors have said, when you shut down an economy for an extended period of time, that number gets greater. | ||
| People don't show up for their cancer diagnoses. | ||
| There are a litany of results when you close down an economy. | ||
| But closing down the economy for this amount of time kept us far below the 2.2 million number. | ||
| As we start to reopen, we keep in mind the people who are missing their screening appointments, the people Who are not, who are succumbing to suicide and drug overdose because of economic hardship. | ||
| This president made the right choice. | ||
| It was a delicate balance, and he did it exactly as he should, guided by data. | ||
| And we are far below 2.2 million dead Americans because of the act. | ||
| So as we know, I mean, you know, she does excellently, of course, batting this biased and leading question down. | ||
| And she makes a good point that if we were to look at the original projections, clearly 100,000, while it is a tragedy, while it is an astronomically high number, it is much, much far below the original guesses as to what exactly was going to happen. | ||
| But of course, you can't win, right? | ||
| The media has rigged the game. | ||
| But you can't not play it, right? | ||
| You have to play the game. You have to try to get your word out there. | ||
| But no matter what happens, the media is going to spin it to where it looks like they win, right? | ||
| Donald Trump shuts down the economy. | ||
| Well, they'll blame him for shutting down the economy and say, oh, where'd your stock market go? | ||
| You presided over this massive crash. | ||
| Okay, so he doesn't shut down the economy. | ||
| Oh, it's your fault for all these deaths. | ||
| It's a lose-lose situation because the discourse is controlled by the enemies of America. | ||
| And this is fairly simple and easy to understand. | ||
| And even in cases where you can easily blame other people for what has occurred, for example, Andrew Cuomo and his desire to send people to nursing homes there in New York City, and we'll get into that in just a little bit. | ||
| They give him a pass. | ||
| They celebrate him as a hero of the coronavirus while blaming his decisions on Donald Trump. | ||
| So anything bad, they'll throw on Donald Trump. | ||
| Anything good gets pushed into the laps of their lapdogs. | ||
| This is obvious and apparent to anybody who's actually paying attention. | ||
| But here is a letter that really emphasizes what Ms. | ||
| McEnany, McEnany, McEnany, The producers are trying to tell me how to say it. | ||
| The point she was making was that it's a delicate balance. | ||
| It's a tightrope balance. | ||
| Balancing act in which you have to consider the effects of the shutdown of the economy in conjunction with, compare that to, contrast it with the effects of leaving it open and possibly allowing the disease to spread. | ||
| Well, a group of over 500 physicians have sent a letter to Donald Trump at the White House. | ||
| As of May 19th, and it says this, What does that mean? | ||
| Well, he says, He says the red group receives the highest priority. | ||
| The next priority is to ensure that the other two groups do not deteriorate a level. | ||
| Decades of research have shown that by strictly following this algorithm we save the maximum number of lives. | ||
| This is the point. He says millions of Americans are already at triage level red. | ||
| This includes 150,000 Americans per month who would have had a new cancer detected through routine screening that hasn't happened. | ||
| For three months, the routine cancer screening has not occurred. | ||
| These people are in danger. | ||
| Millions who have missed routine dental care to fix problems strongly linked to heart disease slash death. | ||
| In presentable cases of stroke, heart attack, and child abuse, suicide hotline phone calls have increased 600%. | ||
| Tens of millions of Americans are at triage level yellow. | ||
| Liquor sales have increased 300 to 600%. | ||
| Cigarette sales have increased. | ||
| Rent has gone unpaid. | ||
| Family relationships have become frayed. | ||
| And millions of well-child checkups have been missed. | ||
| He says it is impossible to overstate the short, medium, and long-term effects, harm to people's health that will happen with a continued shutdown. | ||
| Losing a job is one of life's most stressful events, and the effects on a person's health is not lessened because it also happened to 30 million other people. | ||
| Keeping schools and universities closed is incalculably detrimental for our children, teenagers, and young adults for decades to come. | ||
| Open up the country and save lives, Mr. | ||
| President. It's the only way to do it. | ||
| The best laid plans of mice and men, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| We are just receiving word that the NASA slash SpaceX launch has been scrubbed. | ||
| It will no longer take place on account of the weather in Cape Canaveral. | ||
| Not being suitable for the event. | ||
| Unfortunately, we will have to wait until Earth is in a slightly better mood, I suppose. | ||
| That's right, the safety of the astronauts should be paramount in these missions, and so better to wait a little bit. | ||
| Then let it really happen. But just to give you some notes on exactly what was supposed to be happening there and what will happen I'm sure shortly. | ||
| Space veterans Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken were scheduled to ride into orbit aboard the brand new Dragon capsule on top of a Falcon 9 rocket taking off for the International Space Station. | ||
| In just a few minutes, but no, that will no longer be happening. | ||
| But they were to be launched from this very same pad used by the Apollo moon missions 50 years ago, over 50 years ago. | ||
| The flight would have marked the first time a private company would have sent humans into space. | ||
| It would also be the first time in nearly a decade that the United States launched astronauts into orbit from U.S. soil. | ||
| Ever since the space shuttle was retired in 2011, NASA has relied on Russian spaceships launched from Kazakhstan to take U.S. astronauts to and from the space station. | ||
| So, we'll see. | ||
| It'll happen again, I'm sure, but that event has been scrubbed for today. | ||
| Unfortunate. That's right. | ||
| We have plenty of other news to talk about. | ||
| In fact, I want to talk about some other technology. | ||
| Some less exciting, less spectacular, less glamorous technology. | ||
| Technology that will be finding its way into your life rather shortly. | ||
| That is contact tracing. | ||
| That is one of these One of these things that the coronavirus has been used as an excuse to implement into our lives. | ||
| Contact tracing. If you have an iPhone and you updated it, you may have seen the warning, the notice saying this update includes technology to assist in contact tracing. | ||
| Well, there was a person, and it's hard to tell who exactly this is. | ||
| The original video is up on Vimeo under the screen name Freedom Lover 1977. | ||
| The video has been reposted on several different YouTube videos. | ||
| But essentially, this person wanted to figure out more about this contact tracing surveillance, and so they actually signed up to become a contact tracer and to find out what it would be like from the inside. | ||
| So I'm going to play a short clip from this video. | ||
| The video itself is over 23 minutes long, but I'm going to play a clip about three minutes in length, just to get you an idea of what contact tracing involves. | ||
| The title of the video, Contact Tracing is Scarier Than You Can Imagine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here it is. Remember, everybody that will be quarantined will be 14 days from the last contact, and there's no minimum times. | |
| This could be indefinite. | ||
| Now you're thinking, there's just no way. | ||
| Like, what about my privacy? | ||
| How do I have to share this information? | ||
| And I can tell you, when I went through the contact tracing classes, They tout that you are doing this contact tracing for the greater good. | ||
| You are helping people not spread the disease. | ||
| It is very important that people have privacy, but when it comes to the greater good, your privacy is null and void. | ||
| Now, as soon as you get a positive test result, this goes directly to an electronic database. | ||
| Let me tell you, I took this directly off the training website that the isolation or quarantine can be mandated and enforced. | ||
| And there's other health enforcement such as vaccines are requirements to take medicine because you cannot be risk being infected and giving it to others. | ||
| When you're tested for COVID-19, you might assume that your test result will stay confidential with your doctor and the health department. | ||
| After all, that's how it usually works with medical information, but we're living in unusual times. | ||
| The Associated Press has revealed that across America there's widespread sharing of medical information between health officials and law enforcement. | ||
| Denver is doing it. | ||
| So is El Paso County. | ||
| It is law enforcement specific information that is only in our computer-aided dispatch. | ||
| Jacqueline Kirby is with the El Paso County Sheriff's Office. | ||
| She says addresses are flagged identifying homes of people who have tested positive for COVID-19. | ||
| We get sensitive information all the time. | ||
| We have cautions on addresses for a myriad of reasons and this is just an additional layer of protection for our deputies. | ||
| I want to share with you, this is just something in California, that's where I'm located, but you can read here and I'm assuming that a lot of other states have similar things. | ||
| This shows that They can, because you can see here, a threat of a communicable disease outbreak or epidemic that threatens the public's health, it gives them the rights to do this. | ||
| Adopt and enforce regulations requiring strict or modified isolations or quarantine for any contagious infections or communicable diseases. | ||
| It takes measures as necessary to ascertain the nature of disease and prevent its spread. | ||
| It can take control of the body of any living person or the corpse of any deceased. | ||
| It can quarantine, isolate, inspect, and disinfect persons, animals, houses, rooms, and other property. | ||
| I encourage you to go watch the full video. | ||
| Again, the title is Contact Tracing, Scarier Than You Imagined. | ||
| So that woman actually went and attended nine hours of contact tracing training where, of course, she was told, you are the good guys. | ||
| You are doing God's work. | ||
| You are saving everyone. | ||
| Don't worry about the constitutional rights of the people you are. | ||
| Treating, that you're tracking, that you're tracing. | ||
| Don't worry about that. Don't worry about their privacy or their right to live their own lives. | ||
| None of that. What's really important is that you control them and their every move. | ||
| And of course, this is just laying the groundwork. | ||
| This is just setting the stage for total control, total surveillance, total authoritarianism based on it's good for you, based on we're helping you, based on Essentially the flu, right? | ||
| It's the flu. And of course, I read the article yesterday that in the UK, children, maybe under four, but I know children are more likely to be struck by lightning than to actually get coronavirus. | ||
| And of course, you can see how this will snowball, how this will Not just be implemented by the government, but as you saw in that video, the government healthcare is now working in tandem with law enforcement, which in and of itself should just be a red flag. | ||
| Like this is not something that we should be okay with. | ||
| The fact that law enforcement has access to our medical records, especially in a world where science itself and academia is so incredibly biased against the truth and towards political ideology, right? | ||
| And in this way, they actually have it to where if you... | ||
| Say that you are a woman even though you're a man. | ||
| That's not crazy. That's not a mental illness. | ||
| You're right and the world is wrong. | ||
| But if I complain about that, how long is it going to be until they say, I have a mental illness? | ||
| How long will it be until our mental illness diagnoses by doctors trained by political ideologues in America? | ||
| Leftist universities, basically communist universities, how long until they can say I'm crazy, share that information with law enforcement. | ||
| Of course, we've seen over the last year the implementation of red flag laws. | ||
| This all goes hand in hand. | ||
| Hand in hand, additionally, with big tech, the way big tech is censoring any information that goes against the health authorities or law enforcement and also is getting access to all of our information. | ||
| Amazon and Google now have access to large swaths of medical records given to them You have big tech, you have law enforcement, and you have healthcare all teaming up to implement a complete surveillance grid, a paradigm of total control. | ||
| And they've forced you to accept it, to in fact beg for it by frightening you with what? | ||
| The flu? With the flu! | ||
| It's ridiculous, folks, but it's happening. | ||
| Harrison Smith sitting in today for the Cuck Destroyer. | ||
| Doing my best to fill in. | ||
| Doing my best to shatter the illusions, the disinformation, misinformation, the lies of the mainstream media. | ||
| Who, as we all know, are in fact the enemy of the American people. | ||
| And I have a couple clips that will hopefully elucidate that to those of you who doubt that statement. | ||
| They are. They truly are. | ||
| And one of the primary ways that this can be explained is their sheer hypocrisy. | ||
| I'm about to show you a clip. | ||
| Maybe you've already seen it. Big shout out to Revenge of the Sis. | ||
| They played it on their show yesterday and that's where I saw it. | ||
| So I'm stealing their content. | ||
| But this needs to get out. | ||
| This needs to be known by more people because this was such a perfect illustration of the hypocrisy of the mainstream media. | ||
| So here's a clip of MSNBC. They're on the beach, I believe, in Florida. | ||
| And they are pontificating. | ||
| They are So angry and upset at the lack of masks that people aren't wearing masks. | ||
| It's like they don't care that the media has told them to wear masks over and over. | ||
| This is very upsetting to the media. | ||
| And they can't understand why people aren't doing what they say to do. | ||
| Wear your masks. | ||
| Let's see what happens when they start talking about this on a sidewalk there in, I guess it's Wisconsin where they are. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So let's play this. So are the people there just not worried about it, Cal? | |
| Are they not worried about their own personal safety? | ||
| I haven't met anybody who is. | ||
| I met some folks actually from Lake Geneva who lived in the area. | ||
| They were staying a few miles outside of town where I were. | ||
| And they said they're worried about it. | ||
| They're worried about that second spike. | ||
| They're worried about folks coming in from Chicago. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But they'll quickly add, at the same time, this is a place that relies on that business. | |
| I think people here want a little bit more funding when it comes to these programs so that they could stay closed. | ||
| But again, I think people felt like the Supreme Court made the decision here in Wisconsin that it was time to open up. | ||
| But you can see here, just around, nobody's wearing them. | ||
| Nobody's... There you go, including the camera. | ||
| Yeah. Striking images, Cal Perry. | ||
| Cal, thank you very much. Striking images. | ||
| Striking images, Cal Perry. | ||
| I'm shocked and appalled. | ||
| It's like she's reporting on D-Day or something. | ||
| Striking images. Very dangerous situation we find ourselves in. | ||
| Daily Wire, I believe, actually put out a version of this video. | ||
| You can see the guy who interjected is filming them the whole time. | ||
| Daily Wire put out the news report spliced in with the guy filming them. | ||
| And just exposing their hypocrisy. | ||
| And it's really funny because this guy filming them probably wouldn't have said anything. | ||
| This clip probably wouldn't have gotten around like it has if they didn't feel the need to make an example of this guy, right? | ||
| This guy's walking around. He's filming them because he knows they're reporting, isn't it very terrible how nobody's wearing their mask? | ||
| We try to tell them to wear their mask and they just refuse. | ||
| This guy's walking by and he goes, well, wait, the cameraman's not wearing a mask. | ||
| The producer isn't wearing a mask. | ||
| The only person wearing a mask is the guy on camera. | ||
| And he notices this is a bit hypocritical, I think. | ||
| And so he starts filming them. | ||
| But it's not until the reporter actually motions and says, Hey, turn the camera around. | ||
| Film this guy. Shame this guy. | ||
| Is essentially what he's saying. | ||
| He's going, Yeah, you know, I don't see anybody with masks. | ||
| Here, you can see right here, this man doesn't have a mask. | ||
| And he has the camera point to him in order to shame him. | ||
| And that's when the guy speaks up and says, Hey, you know what? | ||
| Neither does your cameraman. | ||
| Half of your crew doesn't have masks and yet you're out here shaming people about having masks. | ||
| That, ladies and gentlemen, is hypocrisy manifest. | ||
| They're lying. They are doing it for show. | ||
| It's the same as when they're all in the White House press briefing room. | ||
| They think the cameras are off and they all rip their masks off. | ||
| And yet they will shame you and tell you that you have to keep your mask on constantly while they're not doing it themselves. | ||
| They're hypocrites. You don't have to listen to them. | ||
| They're not saying it because they truly believe it. | ||
| If they truly believed it, they would all have their masks on, right? | ||
| Is this so hard to understand? | ||
| Of course not. But that's not the only thing they've been hypocritical or dishonest about. | ||
| So I'm going to go to this next clip. | ||
| This is from Fleckus at Fleckus Talks. | ||
| He's talking to a Stanford-educated lawyer and doctor. | ||
| She's an emergency room doctor there at a protest. | ||
| And I want to show this clip because she's talking about hydroxychloroquine, which, of course, we've heard in the media is evil, is bad, is not good for you, is going to kill you. | ||
| It's basically drinking bleach. | ||
| Whatever lies they're saying about it, well, they're all debunked by people that actually have experience with it. | ||
| So let's hear what this doctor has to say about hydrochloroquine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hydroxychloroquine is not a controversial drug. | |
| I know that your listeners will find that hard to believe because all they've heard about it is controversy. | ||
| It's not a controversial drug. | ||
| It's been FDA approved for 65 years. | ||
| We give it to pregnant women. | ||
| We give it to breastfeeding women. | ||
| There are patients who take it for decades. | ||
| In fact, the typical use of Plaquenil or hydroxychloroquine is for decades. | ||
| It's not a controversial drug. | ||
| And it wasn't controversial to me until the day after the president said it and the press went very What's really disturbing about this We got a letter. | ||
| Every California physician got a letter from the California State Medical Board essentially threatening us if we prescribe this medicine. | ||
| It's very carefully worded. | ||
| I'm happy to send you an email copy. | ||
| But it says we have to be cautious about prescribing this. | ||
| It could be construed as unprofessional conduct. | ||
| That's enough to stop a doctor from being honest and truthful with the patient about what they need. | ||
| What's your message to Gavin Newsom and Eric Carcetti? | ||
|
unidentified
|
That there's no scientific justification for locking people down. | |
| Open California? Open California. | ||
| Very cool. So you heard it there, folks. | ||
| It's been used for decades upon decades. | ||
| People have used it for decades upon decades, as in a single individual will continually use this medicine for a long period of time with very minimal adverse side effects. | ||
| In fact, I've heard that Advil has greater chance of side effects than hydroxychloroquine. | ||
| Whatever it is, we need a simpler way to say this medicine because it's such a long word. | ||
| It's been used forever. | ||
| She says we use it on pregnant women. | ||
| We use it with women who are nursing. | ||
| There's no side effects about this. | ||
| So why would the media be so desperate to discount this very proper treatment for the coronavirus? | ||
| Well, I think it's pretty simple with all the other stuff that we've seen, right? | ||
| Okay, if you have a respiratory illness that is incurable by any typical disease, Then what does that require? | ||
| That requires the shutdown. | ||
| That requires the vaccine. | ||
| That requires all of these very draconian measures to take care of. | ||
| Well, what happens if you have, I mean, so, you know, you gotta think as a world elite, as one of these authoritarian satanic leaders that gets this opportunity, right? | ||
| This juicy morsel of the coronavirus that suddenly can act, can serve as the justification for all of the evil plans that you've had, that you've harbored for so long. | ||
| And you have this, you're salivating, you're drooling, you're so happy to be given this gift that will allow you to enslave the human race and actually the humans will beg you for it. | ||
| What a beautiful thing if you're an evil person, right? | ||
| Well, what happens when a stick gets thrown in your spokes? | ||
| What happens when it turns out that there is a readily available, long-tested, long-proven, easily manufactured cure? | ||
| Well, suddenly all those plans are unnecessary. | ||
| Suddenly all of those designs that you've been rearing to implement are no longer needed. | ||
| So this is the stick in the spokes of the New World Order plan to take advantage of the coronavirus epidemic pandemic. | ||
| Hydroxychloroquine rated most effective coronavirus treatment poll of doctors finds. | ||
| But no. But no, you can't have it. | ||
| You're not allowed to have it. | ||
| You are not allowed to take this medicine that may very easily clear up this disease. | ||
| It's not being allowed to be used in nursing homes or throughout America because they need medicine. | ||
| They need the reaction. | ||
| They need the draconian surveillance, the COVID pass, the contact tracing. | ||
| They need all of these things, not for your health, but for their complete control of humanity, for their enslavement of the planet. | ||
| That is why it is necessary. | ||
| So that is why they are so desperate to... | ||
| Tell everybody that hydroxychloroquine is unhealthy and why they're so quick to celebrate any vaccine or any other medicine that looks like it might be helping. | ||
| Even the Oxford vaccine, which didn't prevent a single one of the test monkeys they used from actually getting the disease. | ||
| And then they tested it on humans and it was nothing but side effects. | ||
| Didn't help at all, caused throwing up, he couldn't sleep. | ||
| Awful stuff, but they'll celebrate that. | ||

| Now I want to go to this clip. | ||
| This is Nigel Farage. | ||
| He was out exposing the transitioning, the process by which the French Navy is actually escorting illegal immigrants, migrants, into the English Channel, where they are then picked up by the English Coast Guard and brought into the country. | ||
| Totally illegal. | ||
| He exposed that and they changed up their tactics, but he was out on the water again yesterday to expose that it's still going on, just a little bit differently. | ||
| And I'm going to play this whole video for you. | ||
| You can find it on Nigel Farage's Twitter. | ||
| And I encourage you to share this around to expose the way that our country's governments are working together to subvert our own citizens. | ||

|
Here he is, Nigel Farage. Hello again. | |
| It's the 26th of May. | ||
| It's 6am. We're out here in the mid-channel again. | ||
| The film last week caused one hell of a stir. | ||
| A lot of MPs contacting Priti Patel, demanding action. | ||
| We're told that the Home Secretary has spoken to the French authorities. | ||
| What's been said, what's been agreed, I don't know. | ||
| One of the things this film exposed last week was this whole concept of French naval vessels escorting These dinghies with migrants and then handing them over to the British Border Force. | ||
| That had never been exposed before. | ||
| That has caused one hell of a row. | ||
| Now, the last two days, there have been far fewer migrant boats coming, despite, as you can see, glassy, calm seas. | ||
| I don't know why. I wonder whether maybe the French on the roads, on the beaches, have been stopping a series of launches. | ||
| I don't know. What I can tell you this morning is, so far, one dinghy has been spotted further up towards the Goodwin Sands with three on board. | ||
| That sounds very odd. | ||
| Strikes me, that's not traffickers. | ||
| That's probably three blokes who've nicked a boat and are heading on their way over. | ||
| But what we now know is just a few miles away from where we are now, There is a French warship escorting a dinghy in which we're told there are 13 people. | ||
| Interestingly, the French Navy have put a one-mile exclusion zone around them because they say it's search and rescue and any vessel that comes within that would endanger lives. | ||
| Now, we're not going to endanger lives. | ||
| Far from it. They know we're here. | ||
| They know I'm back out here. | ||
| They are doing their best to hide the truth. | ||
| So we're heading down slowly towards the handover. | ||
| We'll see how close we can reasonably get, and we'll see what the threat level becomes. | ||
| The truth is, as yet, nothing really much, not too much, seems to have changed. | ||
| So there we've got... The French warship. | ||
| She's still in French waters, escorting a boat. | ||
| We're told there are 13 migrants on it, and they will come into, as we saw the other day, into British waters and be picked up by Border Force. | ||
| We've spotted something a little bit further down. | ||
| Looks to us in the distance with binoculars like it's an inflatable on its own, so we're heading to that now. | ||
| What's happening here is there's a rib there. | ||
| There's quite a lot of people on it. | ||
| It looks quite big from here. | ||
| And interestingly, we saw the direct handover last week, and we heard that VHF signal saying we would change tactics. | ||
| So what the French naval vessel's doing now is almost pretending that he's not escorting it. | ||
| He's doing a zigzag course. | ||
| He's keeping some distance from it. | ||
| It's the same game. | ||
| They're doing all they can. | ||
| To try to stop us thinking that it's still going on. | ||
| But it is, and we'll witness very shortly, Border Force coming out to collect it. | ||
| So here we go. There's 13, we think, on this one. | ||
| Border Force will be able to get them very, very soon. | ||
| Nice day. Nice day for it. | ||
| What can you say? It's the end of the operation, and here we have the French naval vessel that, despite the fact we blew the gap on what was going on last week, escorted that rib across into English waters. | ||
| When they realised we were here, they sort of pretended they weren't shadowing it and turned a bit broadside on and went away, but it's exactly what they did. | ||
| And then you've got... | ||
| The lifeboat, Dover lifeboat, then you've got, to the left of that, the Border Force vessel, and you can see in the sea next to it, the rib, there are 13 migrants on it. | ||
| We went right up close with this boat to them. | ||
| I have to say, one or two of them were very, very aggressive with us indeed. | ||
| It wasn't us they wanted to see. | ||
| It was, of course, Border Force, because they know... | ||
| Once they're picked up by Border Force, they can stay. | ||
|

|
Coast Guard 2-5, Dover Coast Guard 2-5. | |
| That's me at Endurance. | ||
| My patrol is complete and I'm RTP at this time. | ||
| Over. Coast Guard 2-5, Dover Coast Guard, that's understood. | ||
| Safe journey back up north and thank you for your help tonight. | ||
| We'll see you next time. It's up as nine in the morning. | ||
| So far, five migrant vessels have been picked up, including a kayak. | ||
| Yeah, a kayak. Somebody kayaked across. | ||
| We, of course, saw the boat earlier ourselves. | ||
| We were the first British boat to it. | ||
| We saw the French Navy there. | ||
| Something very interesting is going on here. | ||
| The video last week exposing this whole concept of the handover. | ||
| It has led to considerable anger, pressure on the Home Secretary, conversations with the French. | ||
| But far from changing what they're doing, what they've actually done is to become more covert. | ||
| Number one, by shadowing at a greater distance. | ||
| But number two, and here's the key, the French Navy today had their AIS systems, their transponders, turned off so we can't track them, so there's no proof they acted at slow speed as an escort to those inflatable dinghies. | ||
| So the whole thing has become even more difficult. | ||
| For anybody to capture. | ||
| As you heard earlier, a one-mile exclusion zone was put around what they called a search and rescue mission. | ||
| Everything today was said to be a search and rescue mission and they just simply don't want you to know what the truth is. | ||
| Here we are. It's late May. | ||
| There is no sign of any of this stopping. | ||
| And I think the numbers that come over the course of this summer will justify the use of the word invasion. | ||
| So twice in a week, we've caught the French Navy acting as an escort for illegal migrants into British waters, and our border force, I'm sorry to say... | ||
| But effectively being complicit in it. | ||
| They sit in Dover Harbour and they wait for the call and out they come, pick up the migrants, say thank you very much to the French and wait for the next call-out. | ||
| We've also today had the plane going up and down the Channel. | ||
| That plane has come down from Doncaster today. | ||
| So you've got Border Force vessels, you've got aeroplanes, you've got drones, you've got helicopters, you've got dozens of people. | ||
| There, in Dover, on the shore, processing all of this. | ||
| Goodness only knows what it's costing. | ||
| We certainly know that at least 400 million pounds has been spent on this over the course of the last ten years. | ||
| 61 million of it given to the French to stop them from coming, not to escort them over. | ||
| So here we are in Dover Docks. | ||
| This is the end of the Seaborne journey. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You can see behind me, Hunter, which is the Border Force vessel. | |
| It's unloading people who are going up the gangplank. | ||
| You can see the top of the gangplank, people queuing. | ||
| That's the reception centre. | ||
| You can see ambulances, police cars. | ||
| So it isn't just... | ||
| Airplanes, drones, helicopters, order force, RNLI. When they get on land, you've got this big reception centre and then immigration further down in Dover. | ||
| Most people who come in would have destroyed their documents. | ||
| They would claim they've come from Iran, which they believe gives them a much better chance of firstly claiming refugee status because of the So that's Nigel Farage, | ||
| of course, on the scene there in England. | ||
| Fighting back against the, as he calls it rightly, the invasion of his country by foreigners not having to get past the protectors of his country but actually being invited in, being smuggled in by the people who claim We're good to go. | ||
| We're going to spend basically this whole hour talking about what has happened with small businesses in Corona, what the outlook seems to be, how the way that large companies like Walmart and Amazon are flourishing at this point while small businesses are being forced to close. | ||
| We will get into all of it. | ||
| Thanks for being with us, Dave. | ||
| Thanks, Harrison, for having me. Appreciate being here. | ||
| Regular viewers of InfoWars may not recognize Dave because he's not wearing his cowboy hat, and I'm... | ||
| I actually forgot it. | ||
| I'm going to have a lot of messages today. | ||
| He says, man, you went live without a cowboy hat. | ||
| I don't believe it. Well, luckily you have the UT tag. | ||
| We both have our Texas signature, so they know we're local. | ||
| Is this your newest book? | ||
| You're an author. You come out with some really great alternative history where you're prognosticating what might happen in the future with really great fiction. | ||
| But this is not fiction. This is not fiction. | ||
| Actually, this book was released a couple years ago, and it's a book on entrepreneurship. | ||
| And one of the things I always used to tell people is that I went in business for myself at 21 years old because I was basically unemployable. | ||
| Right. Nobody would hire me, right? | ||
| And so that's the title of the book, Unemployable, How to Be Successfully Unemployed Your Entire Life. | ||
| I think that's great. That's correct. | ||
| And actually, it was my kids that got me to write this book because I do write political thrillers and I write political books. | ||
| And in fact, I've got a book coming out next month that I'm co-writing with Sheriff Joe Arpaio that's going to break some new news. | ||
| But, you know, the kids... | ||
| You know, my youngest son, actually, Tanner, he was at Texas A&M, unfortunately. | ||
| I don't know what happened there. | ||
| Right. But he would come home from his classes in business and he'd say, you know, Dad, nobody's talking about the things that you used to talk about at the dinner table. | ||
| Right. About business and about entrepreneurship, about free enterprise. | ||
| And, you know, he says that you really have to capture some of the things that you say because the type of things you say, I'm not hearing in the classroom. | ||
| And so that's what really got me going on the book. | ||
| And The rest is kind of history. | ||
| It's kind of the story of at least my business history and what I've seen in the market and, you know, what the difference is between somebody who starts a business and somebody that just, you know, because we're all told or taught to go out and get a good education and go get a job. | ||
| Why can't we be teaching more kids to go out and get a good education and start a business? | ||
| Yeah, have some entrepreneurship. Do you think that's because the way it's treated in academia is in a purely academic fashion where they're teaching theories but none of them actually have any real world experience where in reality if you want to learn this stuff you actually need to go to somebody who has done it like yourself? | ||
| Well, that's exactly what happened and that's why my college career was cut short because I questioned an economics professor about some of the theories that they had. | ||
| And then after I did some more research and talked to him further, I realized that the guy had never made a payroll, never ran a business. | ||
| Everything he was teaching was theory. | ||
| It wasn't practical. And it really, I decided to take time off from college and started an air freight business on my own and never went back. | ||
| And good for you. | ||
| So you now run the Defiance Press book publishing company. | ||
| And that, of course, came out with this book, Unemployable, How to Be Successfully Unemployed Your Entire Life. | ||
| If you want to buy this, where can they go? | ||
| I can go to Amazon or you can go to Defiance Press, either one. | ||
| Barnes& Noble has it also. | ||
| And it's available in audio also for those who don't like to read. | ||
| Now, just quickly before we go to break, how is your company doing? | ||
| As a result of coronavirus, have you been affected much? | ||
| Well, we really haven't. | ||
| We've actually published more books in the last three months than we have in any three-month period in our history. | ||
| We founded the publishing company in 2012, my technology company, which is now 24 years old. | ||
| Interestingly enough, I mean, we've had a lot of practice with hurricanes because we're based in the Houston area. | ||
| And so we've had, you know, where we've had to move workers remotely. | ||
| And we moved 97% of our staff to remote and actually our productivity increased. | ||
| Ah. So I'm not sure what that says for the commercial real estate market going forward, but I think a lot of companies are rethinking and reimagining what their workforce looks like. | ||
| Because most of my folks can, you know, if they have a stable internet connection and access our proprietary programs can do their job from their home. | ||
| But some of them are welcome to come back to work because they had small kids. | ||
| Right, right. I probably get to talk to an adult. | ||
| Yeah. All right, more with David Roberts on the other side, folks. | ||
| Don't go anywhere. This is thewarroominfowars.com forward slash show. | ||
| All right, folks, the second hour of The War Room has begun. | ||
| I'm sitting here with David Thomas Roberts. | ||
| He is the author of Unemployable, as well as a bunch of other really great fiction stories, sort of alternative history or alternative future stories, I guess you could say, that are very entertaining and very patriotic in their spirit. | ||
| And he's a big supporter of liberty and understands how the economy can be affected by things like coronavirus, what it's like as a small business owner. | ||
| I'm not even sure if I'd say small. | ||
| As a business owner in these days and how everything is so intertwined and the danger that really is being faced by business owners during this lockdown and just how hard it is going to be to get back up and running. | ||
| I wanted to start with this quote. | ||
| This is from Peter Schiff. | ||
| He says, quote, we got the money supply numbers yesterday another 2.25, I'm sorry, another 200, it's almost unbelievable, $225.4 billion in new money in a single week. | ||
| He says the Fed conjured into existence a quarter of a trillion dollars last week. | ||
| He says this money didn't even exist and now poof, it's here. | ||
| So what does this say to you that we're just creating out of thin air a quarter trillion dollars in seven days? | ||
| Well, Harrison, sooner or later we're going to have to pay the piper. | ||
| And it's going to come, it could come as deflation, it could come as hyperinflation, it could come with a crash of the dollar, which I think would correlate either one of those. | ||
| You know, and then that's when governments do some strange things, like you saw happen in Greece and Venezuela and other places. | ||
| So you just can't, you know, print $3 trillion and put it back in the economy and not have it come back and bite you somewhere. | ||
| The debt's not sustainable. | ||
| And it wasn't sustainable before the Chinese virus, and I'm not politically correct, but I'll call it the Chinese virus. | ||
| You can say that type of thing here on Infowars. | ||
| We allow that. I say it all the time. | ||
| People try to correct me. I say, well, no, it came from China, so it's the Chinese virus. | ||
| But the... | ||
| Right, it was unmanageable before this, and yet it's like, you know, we're driving towards a brick wall, and coronavirus is putting a brick on the accelerator. | ||
| And I'll give you just a small microcosm of this, because when the PPP plan came out, and one of the chief architects of that, the primary senator in the Senate that was promoting it was Marco Rubio. | ||
| And Marco Rubio is the chairman of the Small Business and Entrepreneurship Committee in the Senate. | ||
| Oh, good. If that's not comical enough, you know, he's never owned a business, never made a payroll in his life, yet he's the chairman of that subcommittee. | ||
| So, I mean, and this is the kind of thing you see throughout government. | ||
| It reminds me of when Alex Jones confronted Marco Rubio because he was on the committee, he was in the chamber questioning people about big tech censorship, and then he pretends not to know who Alex Jones is. | ||
| So it's a similar kind of thing. | ||
| It's like, okay, You've never owned a small business. | ||
| You've never made payroll, but you are on the committee for it. | ||
| You have no idea. You're the chairman of it. | ||
| There you go. You're the captain of the ship that you've never heard of and don't know how to captain. | ||
| And same thing. | ||
| You're in charge of the censorship, you know, internet censorship, and you don't know the primary example of it. | ||
| So, yeah, I guess it's just par for the course. | ||
| Yeah, you see that throughout government. | ||
| I mean, you see it throughout education, throughout government. | ||
| You know, we're in serious trouble. | ||
| I'll tell you one thing, Harrison, though, that relates to small business and something that we saw. | ||
| You know, ABC News came out with a study that right before the virus hit and said that the 46% of Americans can't come up with $400 in cash in an emergency. | ||
| now all of a sudden you have the China virus and you got people even more dependent on government. | ||
| I mean, we, America literally is financially illiterate. | ||
| It starts at that level and it weaves through education. | ||
| But even look at the large corporations, look at some of these corporations that have filed bankruptcy or that were asking for bailouts barely a month into this issue. | ||
| So nobody's taught, you know, to save for a rainy day. | ||
| Nobody's taught to live on less than you make. | ||
| And it's prevalent through our education system, which is how we end up with consumers who can't put their hands on $400. | ||
| Education, politicians, and government. | ||
| So, you know, unless this country all of a sudden becomes financially illiterate, nobody understands the Fed. | ||
| I even have difficulty with the Fed. | ||
| Right, right. And that's on purpose, right? | ||
| They keep it purposefully shrouded in mystery, sort of, and you get little trickles of what they might be doing at some point, but they run roughshod. | ||
| They do whatever they want. And of course, you know, as somebody who, you know, grew up In a time when, you know, when I wanted to get my house and I bought my house, well, I had to do it through the bank. | ||
| I had to get the death lending, right, the mortgage. | ||
| And so now it's almost like it doesn't matter how literate you are, which I agree with you. | ||
| Americans are not, by and large, literate. | ||
| But it's like even if you are, the system is set up in a way that demands you have to have debt. | ||
| If you want to go to school and get a job, you have to go into debt to go to school. | ||
| If you want to get a house, you can't just pay cash like maybe you could when my parents were buying a house. | ||
| You have to go into debt for it. | ||
| So we've really been running along this chicken chute to just drive us into debt and financial incoherence. | ||
| Financial slavery, exactly. | ||
| And so, you know, I mean, how interesting that this virus came, you know, in Trump's economy, which is probably the best economy in at least 50 years. | ||
| Oh, yeah. And, you know, they couldn't get him with the impeachment. | ||
| They couldn't get him with the Russia hoax. | ||
| And I'm not sitting here saying that, you know, the virus was intentional, but it sure is convenient for the Democrats. | ||
| I am. I'll say that. | ||
| I'll go ahead and say that. I think, yeah, it's either just the most coincidental thing in the world that this fell into the laps of the people who desired this exact thing, or maybe part of it, maybe it wasn't quite as accidental or unexpected as we may be led to believe. | ||
| Now, you talked about Marco Rubio. | ||
| There's another group of senators that came to my attention today. | ||
| You may have seen this. Republican Senators Graham, Cornyn, Crapo, Risch, Rounds, Young, Murkowski, Sullivan, and Lankford write President Trump to urge him not to restrict temporary work-based visas, which they say will help the economic recovery. | ||
| So here's what... | ||
| What is that, the Swamp Republican Caucus? | ||
| Yeah, I guess so. | ||
| I mean, yes, luckily they've outed themselves for us. | ||
| We didn't even have to identify them. | ||
| They went ahead and signed their name on this document saying, we value foreign workers more than Americans, I guess. | ||
| I don't know. Does this make any sense to you? | ||
| Is there a reason that they would want to bring in people? | ||
| Telegistics, a 24-year-old technology company. | ||
| I'm very familiar with this issue. | ||
| And I didn't understand why Trump would accept those issues. | ||
| They create that exception for those. | ||
| That is a problem for kids coming out of college, for kids coming out of these trade schools like the Microsoft and Cisco trade schools. | ||
| They're competing against Indians and others who will take less money. | ||
| They just want to be in the United States. | ||
| They want to work experience the United States. | ||
| And I understand that. | ||
| But it should always be America first. | ||
| That's what I would think. | ||
| And it seems pretty clear cut that, you know, the only reason to support something like this would be either literally there aren't Americans who can do it, which I don't think is the case, right? | ||
| We have Americans who are out of work, 40 million of them now at this point, thanks to coronavirus. | ||
| Many of them are skilled. | ||
| I'm sure there's more than enough people to fill these jobs. | ||
| So I don't think that's it. | ||
| So the only other thing would be that the people who are hiring for these jobs want to be able to pay less for their employers. | ||
| That's who's benefiting. It's not the American people. | ||
| It's not the average worker. | ||
| It's, you know, a few select Americans with billions of dollars who are just looking to bring in people that they can hire for a little bit less. | ||
| Yeah, follow the money. And that's always, when I can't understand something I have to remind myself, follow the money. | ||
| So these big contributors who lobby folks like Cornyn and Graham and others, you know, and you just got to look. | ||
| You know, I've learned to look and try to understand where somebody's coming from. | ||
| All I got to go is look at their list of donors and go to opensecrets.org and go others and just follow the money. | ||
| And you'll even find when you do that, Because my favorite whipping boy is Congressman Kevin Brady because he's my congressman. | ||
| But, you know, these guys that claim to be the right to life and all this other stuff, and then you go see who they take money from. | ||
| It's completely opposite of the principles they portray to everybody and want everybody to believe. | ||
| Are you daring to suggest that politicians are hypocrites? | ||
| Mr. Roberts, is this the news you're breaking here on The War Room today? | ||
| It's breaking news. I'm here to tell you. | ||
| It's shocking. But it is, you know, it's the type of thing you know, but then, you know, Lindsey Graham might say something, he might get riled up during this, and you go, okay, he's not so bad. | ||
| And then something like this happens, and you're sort of brought back to reality, and you think, okay, these people do not have our interest at heart. | ||
| They are concerned with their donors, and you just need to, I guess... | ||
| Accept that and vote them out. | ||
| Right. Well, Lindsey Graham's 30 seconds of fame in the Kavanaugh hearings does not erase his fiscal liberalness. | ||
| Yeah. Yeah, it is quite upsetting, but there it is. | ||
| You can find that on InfoWars.com. | ||
| The letter signed by these, what, seven senators, basically Republican senators, you know, supposedly conservative senators, selling out the American people for foreign workers. | ||
| They say to help the economy. | ||
| I have my doubts. I think it's to help their donors and no one else. | ||

| If you can keep your questions specifically to the small business situation, I know there's all sorts of craziness going on today, but let's stick to the small business and coronavirus shutdown topic just to maximize the amount of time that we have here with Mr. | ||
| Roberts. One of the headlines, we were discussing a couple headlines in the break here. | ||
| This one is really shocking to me. | ||
| American billionaires got $434 billion richer during the pandemic. | ||
| You're always in danger of wading into the Bernie Sanders territory. | ||
| Billionaires are just evil no matter what. | ||
| Nobody's saying that. But there's clearly something wrong here when you can have... | ||
| 40 trillion dollars, I'm sorry, 40 million people going unemployed over a very short period of time, and you don't see that reflected in the stock market. | ||
| And you can see, you know, a situation where the government has forced, who knows, I mean, God knows how many, tens of thousands of small businesses to shut down, but the largest employers in America are... | ||
| Posting record profits. | ||
| There's something wrong here. | ||
| Can you help us put the finger on what exactly it is? | ||
| Well, you got to look at how a particular billionaire made his money and how much of that came from government contracts and those kind of things. | ||
| But I have a real problem when the Home Depot and Walmart and those guys can stay open and Abbott and other governors can pick winners or losers of who has to close and who doesn't. | ||
| Listen, I've been in Home Depot and Lowe's and Walmart and HEB and these other places, and thankfully they're open. | ||
| But what makes them different and why can they operate? | ||
| I mean, listen, I was in Home Depot the other day. | ||
| There wasn't people social distancing in Home Depot. | ||
| Right. And so you tell me the average hardware store can't be open or small business. | ||
| A guy cuts hair. | ||
| I mean, picking winners and losers, it's really overkill. | ||
| And listen, we have a really good taste of what losing liberty looks like during this China virus. | ||
| Because, you know, what did Franklin say? | ||
| You know, people are willing to trade a little bit of liberty for safety. | ||
| You're seeing it in droves here. | ||
| And it's really unfortunate. | ||
| But the Constitution for most of these folks don't mean anything more. | ||
| You heard the governor from New Jersey who said when Tucker Carlson asked him about the Bill of Rights, doesn't that violate the Bill of Rights? | ||
| And the governor of New Jersey said, well, that's above my pay. | ||
| The Bill of Rights is above my pay grade. | ||
| He actually said that. | ||
| And I saw it. I saw it live. | ||
| I said, I gotta replay that again. | ||
| And he actually said the Bill of Rights is above his pay grade. | ||
| Yeah, literally, we're just giving up the most basic rights that we have under pure fear. | ||
| It's just completely manufactured and forced down our throats. | ||
| And then... It's the strange thing. | ||
| We were talking about this during the break. | ||
| Here's the headline from Newsweek. | ||
| California restaurant owner says employees won't come back to work because unemployment pays them more. | ||
| And I was saying I know this from my friends that worked for a catering company and got furloughed until July because of the coronavirus and is now earning more through unemployment than she would be if she was actually working. | ||
| This is... I mean, is this just greasing the wheels towards socialism and just trying to lull people into it by providing them, you know, a better option? | ||
| Why go to work? I mean, it makes sense from an individual perspective. | ||
| Why would I go to work when I cannot work and make more money? | ||
| How do you think these people think now about guaranteed incomes? | ||
| Because now they're going to be pushing for these guaranteed incomes. | ||
| Of course. Listen, I have a friend who's a restaurant owner who's in panic mode because he got the PPP loan and he was ready to start back up again, but he can't get his people back. | ||
| So if you don't hire those people back, If you don't hire the same number that you had that you filed to get the PPP loan, that becomes a loan that has to be paid back. | ||
| So not only is he losing money, but now he's facing the debt that he had from the government because he can't hire employees. | ||
| And these poor restaurant owners, I really do think they have it the worst. | ||
| I mean, when the China virus hit, You know, and they had to close, then what happens to all their food? | ||
| Their food spoils, they have to get rid of their food. | ||
| Now they have to restart again. | ||
| In some places, 25%. | ||
| They're only allowed to have 25% at their tables. | ||
| Some of it makes absolutely no sense. | ||
| Right. I mean, I was at dinner the other night for my daughter's birthday, and there was 10 of us in the family. | ||
| We had to be split up between three tables, and they had to alternate tables, so we had to yell at each other. | ||
| Okay? And I asked the manager, I said, you know, we're all family members. | ||
| We'll all be hanging out together before and after this. | ||
| We've been hanging out all weekend together. | ||
| We hang out all the time. | ||
| And he says that's Abbott's orders. | ||
| He says he can shut us down. | ||
| You know, it just makes no sense at all. | ||
| It is so outrageous. | ||
| And you bring up these PPP loans. | ||
| The senators, this is from the Catholic News Agency, senators demand investigation into Planned Parenthood PPP loans. | ||
| So apparently Planned Parenthood has received $80 million in emergency coronavirus loans. | ||
| This comes mere months after they have pledged to spend $45 million in the 2020 elections. | ||
| So a lot of ways these PPP loans are being used in a way to just sort of launder money to democratic causes. | ||
| And again, this is just, I guess, you know, Maybe this is our libertarian mindset speaking out, but this is what happens when the government gets full of itself and feels like it can do whatever it wants. | ||
| It just screws everything up, throws everything into chaos. | ||
| Everything tends to be biased towards more socialism and more control, and the people who are just trying to work and don't want to rely on anybody are thrown to the wolves. | ||
| Well, you know, we all know what the Democrat playbook is on Planned Parenthood. | ||
| But you've got to really look at Republicans because even when Republicans had control of all three branches, all three houses, they still let Planned Parenthood funding go through. | ||
| They're hypocrites. It's inexcusable. | ||
| You didn't see anybody willing to shut down the government. | ||
| They kicked the can down the road for these continuing resolutions and the Democrats would stuff it and they wouldn't object to it. | ||
| And they wouldn't put their foot down and stop it. | ||
| So the Republicans are just as much to blame as the Democrats because they keep letting it happen. | ||
| Yeah, I completely agree. | ||
| I mean, it's been the biggest missed opportunity of our entire lives, as far as I can tell, the Trump presidency to shut down all of these different things. | ||
| And now we're just thrown into this chaotic emergency situation where nothing seemingly can get done except for printing more money and more insanity. | ||
| Just to give you some idea of where else this This money is going, you know, as Americans find themselves 40 million unemployed and unable to pay their bills. | ||
| Newsom's California is now offering $125 million to undocumented immigrants. | ||
| Phoenix City Council okays $3 million in corona funds for refugees. | ||
| I mean, you know, our money is still just going towards people that hate us, people that refuse to follow our laws. | ||
| Apparently we can't kick them out of the country, but we can find them in order to give them more money. | ||
| It's just... Completely outrageous. | ||
| One thing I want to tease before we go to break here is we're going to come back and show you a video. | ||
| I don't know if you've seen this, Dave. | ||
| It's a compilation of several different Local news stations talking about Amazon. | ||
| Have you seen this? About paying no taxes? | ||
| No, it's very interesting. | ||
| I'm wondering how much to tease it going into break here. | ||
| But essentially, Amazon packaged news reports and sent it to local news. | ||
| And the local news just aired it without even realizing that it was literally Amazon propaganda. | ||
| Being sent out. And it's all about coronavirus and how they're dealing with it. | ||
| And of course, Amazon is posting record profits and just expanding and exploding while everybody else is forced to stay inside and order from them. | ||
| So it's insane. | ||
| But you'll want to stay tuned, folks. | ||
| This clip is amazing. | ||
| It's true propaganda in its purest sense. | ||
| All right, welcome back, folks. We got callers on the line. | ||
| We got videos to play. | ||
| We got Dave Roberts in studio with us here, author of Unemployable, You can buy that at Amazon.com. | ||
| We're all hypocrites in this regard. | ||
| I order stuff from Amazon as well because there are some things that you have to order from there. | ||
| You can't get them anywhere else, especially now that all the stores are shut down. | ||
| You're almost forced into this. | ||
| It's something many of us do. | ||
| But I want to go to this video. | ||
| I don't even know how to intro it. | ||
| This is what aired on nine different news stations. | ||
| Miami, Florida, Nashville, Lexington, Bluefield, West Virginia, Columbus, Georgia, Palm Springs, California, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and oh, Bluefield, West Virginia. | ||
| It ran twice there, apparently. | ||
| Here is your beloved MSM mainstream news covering the behemoth Amazon. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's see what they have to say. Millions of Americans staying at home are relying on Amazon. | |
| Millions of Americans staying at home are relying on Amazon. | ||
| Amazon has transformed its operations in response to COVID-19 to protect employees and keep packages flowing. | ||

| The company is keeping its employees safe and healthy while still delivering those packages to your doorstep. | ||
| The company is keeping employees safe and healthy. | ||

| It spent $800 million on increased wages and overtime pay during the pandemic. | ||

| It has spent $800 million on increased wages and overtime pay during the pandemic. | ||
| Amazon says it has spent $800 million on increased wages and overtime pay during the pandemic. | ||
| Every single one of Amazon's workforce of nearly a million people has played a critical role in making these changes happen. | ||
| I hope that they feel that passion that we have for safety. | ||
| So they can stay safe and healthy while you do too. | ||
| So there you go, folks. | ||
| That was by Courier News. | ||
| CourierNewsroom.com has the story. | ||
| Nine local TV stations pushed the same Amazon scripted segment. | ||
| So that segment was actually scripted out by a guy named Todd Walker, who is the Amazon spokesperson. | ||
| And then that was sent out, I guess, to these newsrooms who just ran it without telling anybody that this was Amazon-provided information. | ||
| This was literally just a... | ||
| Propaganda advertisement for Amazon there. | ||
| In fact, in response to a request for comment on why the station ran the package, Wes Armistead, news director of the Bluefield NBC affiliate WVVA, told Courier, quote, I was not aware the package was provided by Amazon. | ||
| He says we'll make sure it doesn't happen again. | ||
| Incredible. I mean, this is propaganda. | ||
| I guess it comes ahead of a Wednesday meeting that will be a yearly stockholder meeting for Amazon. | ||
| So they wanted to get some good press, I guess, because of all the negative press they've received during coronavirus. | ||
| Harrison, you know what that video reminds me of is when you watch the Sunday talk shows. | ||
| It's like the DNC scripted that, you know, how the DNC scripts everything. | ||
| And so no matter what talking head you see on there, They're all saying and trumpeting the same exact terminology, the same phrases, in the same manner. | ||
| It just reminded me of the Sunday talk shows. | ||
| Yeah, they used to do it a lot more. | ||
| I haven't seen it in a while, but it used to be like... | ||
| I remember when Donald Trump gave his first State of the Union address, it was like the next day, every single newspaper had the word dark in the title, right? | ||
| They all, in a dark speech, Trump's dark spirit, it was like the memo had gone out. | ||
| In a literal way, not... | ||
| Figuratively, a memo went out and all of these people read it. | ||
| Obviously, they coordinate that. | ||
| That's what it looked like to me. It looked like the Sunday morning talk show. | ||
| Yeah, right. People watch this and they go, wow, that's amazing. | ||
| Amazon did that. And to us, it's like, no, this is what the normal news looks like to us. | ||
| They don't understand what they're saying. | ||
| It's not their own words. | ||
| They're trained to make it seem like they're authentic, but they're literally reading scripts provided by whoever is above them. | ||
| It's easy content. Somebody provides them the content. | ||
| Hey, here we go. Done, yeah. | ||
| They're lazy, I guess. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, InfoWars will never air an Amazon package. | ||
| I can guarantee you that. | ||
| That's not a guarantee you can get from local news. | ||
| I want to go out to one of these calls. This is Corey in Nevada. | ||
| He works for a small business and used to be the owner. | ||
| How does that work out? | ||
| Corey in Nevada, thanks for calling in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You are on the air. Hey, how's it going, fellas? | |
| Good, thank you. Great. I'm doing pretty good. | ||
| I'm not doing terrible. | ||
| I am like this guy's only employee for redoing bathrooms and whatnot, and it has kind of crushed everything that we're doing. | ||
| The coronavirus? Now, you're in Nevada. | ||
| Is it because of the lockdown? | ||
| The government ordered you to stop working, or is it just a lack of customers? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, no, no. It's just lack of customers. | |
| We never follow government orders. | ||
| We're just like, the hell with you guys. | ||
| It's like, I'm going to keep working, and my boss is going to keep working, so it was like, okay, well, we're not running out of customers, but... | ||
| I wonder if people just assume that you can't work, and so they don't bother making appointments or contacting you. | ||
| Do you think that could be it, or what do you think it is that's caused the drop in business? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I honestly think that it's more or less like people aren't spending money on other people doing stuff. | |
| They're trying to do stuff themselves because they're so bored. | ||
| I used to have a beef jerky business, but meat has cost so much lately that it's kind of not really fruitful. | ||
| Yeah, it's almost prohibitive. | ||
| And we've been seeing warnings about that, too, that the supply chain is still sort of messed up and, you know, might be more shortages down the line. | ||
| So what is your plan, Corey? | ||
| Are you just going to try to weather this and hope you make it through the shutdown? | ||
| Or, you know, what's your plan here? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I have enough in savings to, like, get me through, like, a few months. | |
| And, like, me and my wife, like, Got the $24 check, and we were just like, hey, we're just using this for rent. | ||
| Just for the rent. | ||
| It's like, so let's not go buy something retarded or stupid. | ||
| Let's just take care of ourselves and take care of our loved ones. | ||
| Well, Corey, this is Dave. | ||
| Let me ask you something. | ||
| I don't know specifically how tough the lockdown has been in Nevada as compared to Texas. | ||
| Is it like California? | ||
| Is it that drastic? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I really couldn't answer that, honestly, because I go out every day. | |
| Personally, I go out every day. | ||
| I never wear a mask, but I did buy an InfraWars mask just in case I'm forced to, like, If I have to, like, go into a store with a mess, you know, like, okay, well, I got you right here, homie. | ||
| Are you in Vegas or what part of Nevada are you in? | ||
| I'm in Vegas. Okay, so I heard today that I think Steve Wynn or something, the Wynn was close to reopening. | ||
| I think the Nugget's going to reopen. | ||
| I think you may see some of your prospects change once those casinos start to open. | ||
| You know, one of the things, I'm just thinking about, you know, what would I do if I was in your shoes? | ||
| And I may go hang out in the bathroom section of Home Depot as people come in there and try to figure out how they're going to do something on their own and see if they need help. | ||
| Um, you know, you just, you gotta try other things now. | ||
| I think people are holding on to their money. | ||
| Although my, my daughter's, uh, boyfriend, he, he's, uh, he builds swimming pools and, and, uh, he, he's got like 10 new contracts. | ||
| They're all smaller than what he's used to, but I mean, there's, people are starting to spend money again because as Texas has opened up, I think, you know, people get, um, a little bit more optimistic about what the future holds, but if the future's uncertain, people will tend to hold on to their money. | ||
| Yeah. Any final words, Corey, before we let you go? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. VegasProudBoys.com. | |
| Come check us out. | ||
| We have done a lot to help Nevada try to open up. | ||
| We have done a lot to try to help Dan Rodimer, who is running for Congress, will get elected. | ||
| Cool. All right. Vegas Proud Boys. | ||
| That's good to hear. Good to hear y'all are still up and running. | ||
| All right. More with David Thomas Roberts on the other side. | ||
| Don't go anywhere. All right. Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| I'm here with David Thomas Roberts. | ||
| Is it your latest book, Unemployable? | ||
| No, it's a couple years old. | ||
| It's a couple years old. It was Death of Liberty, which is about the income tax and socialism. | ||
| Right. Well, and so, yeah, so this one's a few years old, but just as pertinent as ever, it's unemployable how to be successfully unemployed your entire life. | ||
| I guess by this definition, I was unemployed for about a decade before I got a job here because I never liked bosses. | ||
| I never liked working for anybody. | ||
| I just, I made movies, and so I'd get customers, and I'd make movies for them, and that was that. | ||
| I never thought I'd work for anybody until I got the job here, and this is probably the only place that I could. | ||
| Well, unemployed doesn't mean necessarily, right, that you don't work. | ||
| It just means that you choose to have your own business. | ||
| I don't mean be a bum, right? | ||
| Right. I guess self-employed is the nomenclature they like to use. | ||
| So now that people are, maybe they've been furloughed. | ||
| Maybe they've been laid off. | ||
| Maybe now they're like, you know, this is my time. | ||
| I can actually found a business. | ||
| But we're in this economic situation where it seems like everything's headed towards a cliff. | ||
| Is this a good time or a bad time to start a business right now? | ||
| I think it's a great time. | ||
| You know, when people ask me all the time what kind of business I should start, and I say, well, what do you like to do? | ||
| I mean, what are your, I mean, do you have hobbies that you can not, everybody has hobbies they can make into a business. | ||
| I had a family member that made wooden tulips that you plant in your yard. | ||
| You can't really make a business out of that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You can sell them on the weekends at the fair, I guess. | |
| Not every hobby you could probably turn into a profitable business, but what are the things that you like to do? | ||
| And sometimes, if you think about it, if you walk into a retail establishment or experience using another business, what do they do right, what they do wrong, and say, can you improve on it? | ||
| An entrepreneur not necessarily is somebody that comes up with the next big thing. | ||
| It's somebody that takes an example and improves on it. | ||
| And one of the examples I use in the book was dry cleaners in my area who I hate taking clothes that are dry cleaners. | ||
| I hate worse picking them up. | ||
| Right. So they came out with a service that they come out and pick up your laundry and bring it back. | ||
| Right. Like you do in a big city. | ||
| I'm kind of in a rural area, so it's not like you're in downtown New York City where they come by and pick up 20 apartments at the same time or something. | ||
| So these guys came up with the pickup and delivery service. | ||
| Now, I pay... Probably a lot more than if I had taken them, but to me it's worth it. | ||
| So is that person, and it's a dry cleaner, but is that an entrepreneur? | ||
| Absolutely that's an entrepreneur. | ||
| I just found out a better way because I will be willing to pay more to not have to do that. | ||
| Right, right. Yeah, it's interesting. | ||
| To me, it seems like a mindset. | ||
| Some people have it and some people don't. | ||
| The entrepreneurial spirit, which I guess is a bunch of different things, but it's sort of an amalgamation of you have to be willing to take risks. | ||
| You also have to be empathetic in a way because you have to understand how other people feel about certain things and be able to go, now, people don't like this, so I'm going to provide a service that will We're good to go. | ||
| I'll tell you, I was unemployed. | ||
| I worked for myself for 10 years, but I was not a good business person. | ||
| I was good at making movies, but in terms of going out and having to get customers and having to deliver things on time, I was not good at that. | ||
| Luckily, I sort of made up for it by producing quality content, but I was never good at the business aspect. | ||
| So maybe I just found a... | ||
| A position that I could get away with that in. | ||
| But what is it that makes a really good entrepreneur? | ||
| Well, I think first off is knowing how to solve a problem. | ||
| You know, looking at things. And part of being an entrepreneur is if you're offering something that somebody's going to buy or use, what problem does it solve? | ||
| So you've got to be able to recognize what's a problem and then how to improve on that. | ||
| But listen, my first business out of the gate was meteoric. | ||
| We did extremely, extremely well in a very short period of time. | ||
| And I was hooked. But I'll tell you the truth. | ||
| I did not have the financial literacy. | ||
| It's kind of like, well, you know, if you're, if I have bad habits, you know, really bad financial habits, then adding more money Only complicates them. | ||
| Right. So, you know, learning some basic financial literacy is really critical. | ||
| And learning what your weak spots are and asking for help or going to the right people for the help where you have flat spots. | ||
| And finances early on for me was a big problem. | ||
| It's not anymore. Right. | ||
| I mean, I got really good at finances. | ||
| But in the beginning, the more money I made, the more debt I got into. | ||
| Right. And that wasn't a good thing. | ||
| But you made it out of that. | ||
| Well, we did. We crashed and burned, but it was a good learning lesson. | ||
| That's good. You know, there are a couple things you said there that made me want to go off on different directions. | ||
| You talk about solving problems. | ||
| And to me, you know, this is a main sort of difference between the private and the public is that the government can identify a problem, say they're going to address it, make the problem a thousand times worse, and then double down on that program, you know, by saying, oh, we just need more money. | ||
| Where private enterprise doesn't get that problem. | ||
| It doesn't get that leeway to sort of do stuff. | ||
| You actually have to have results. | ||
| I guess that sort of goes into the other question I have because nowadays you see, especially people my age and younger, a real push towards socialism. | ||
| And I think it really has a lot to do with just a weakness, a fear of having to I'm going to play video games, smoke weed, and live off the government for my whole life. | ||
| Sounds like a lot of fun. To some people, it sounds horrible to me. | ||
| So, I mean, do you see this? | ||
| I mean, does this worry you as an entrepreneur, as a capitalist, that there is this growing tide of basically just lazy, worthless people that want to be taken care of? | ||
| Well, you're seeing the... | ||
| Basically the outgrowth of 60, 70 years of liberal education. | ||
| Right. So that's one of the things you're seeing with the advent of socialism. | ||
| But really, I look at your generation and I've got a lot of hope because you guys pretty much invented what I would call the gig economy. | ||
| And I can't tell you how many people I've met where they were driving an Uber, they're doing guitar lessons at night. | ||
| Right. And they would work three or four different gigs so as to not have to work nine to five. | ||
| Right. Okay, and so, you know, there's a lot of folks, and you're the age of my two sons, and very independent. | ||
| You know, a lot of people are scared to death of the 8 to 5 mentality. | ||
| They saw their parents grow up with that. | ||
| They don't want that life. | ||
| Right. They look later years, and part of it, too, is that If you look at my stepfather, who worked for the same company for 36 years, at the end, they stabbed him in the back, the company got acquired, and there was no loyalty from them at the end. | ||
| So you don't really see people working for a company that long much anymore. | ||
| There's not that type of loyalty from either side. | ||
| But I just, if you think about it, If you go to work every day with a job and you have somebody else telling you how much money you can make, what time you have to report to work, where you need to work from. | ||
| I mean, people live somewhere where they don't want to live. | ||
| Right, right. Okay? I mean, is it really worth that job to live somewhere where you don't want to live? | ||
| You know, when you can take vacation, how much vacation you can take, and then at the end of the day, how much money you make. | ||
| Right. And the idea is that you're trading off some of that stuff for the security of having a job. | ||
| But then you can see here, it's just you might get laid off the next day. | ||
| So that security isn't even a guaranteed. | ||
| Yeah. And they're seeing that now because of, you know, with the layoffs and everything that's come and seeing, you know, talking to people and seeing how that has shaken down and who gets cut and when it gets cut. | ||
| And it's been an eye opener for a lot of people. | ||
| But I will tell you, that's one of the main reasons people go in business for themselves is they go through some kind of downsizing and they just said, that's enough. | ||
| Yeah. I'm going to do something on my own. | ||
| So there's a lot of avenues. | ||
| There's small business groups. | ||
| There's franchises. Franchises is always a good way to go because usually... | ||
| And you don't have to have a ton of money. | ||
| I will tell you that the technology company that I started, that me and several other folks started... | ||
| We start with $1,000 and it's a multi-million dollar company 24 years later. | ||
| So it's just, you know, it's having an idea and then executing on it and finding out where you're weak at and finding people that will help you where your weakness is. | ||
| Right. Well, and just, you know, in all of your responses, it's on you, right? | ||
| You can't rely on somebody else to do it. | ||
| You have to be self-perpetuating. | ||
| You have to be self-fulfilled, I guess you could say. | ||
| Right. Yeah, and I was always willing to work. | ||
| You know, having a regular job would have been a vacation for me because most people, you know, most entrepreneurs, they're not afraid of working. | ||
| They just don't want to work for something. | ||
| Right, yeah. No, no. They work six, seven days a week because they love it. | ||
| Yeah, they love working more than anybody else and I sort of know the feeling because You know, for a long time, it's like if you're working freelance in video or something, it's like you're never off, right? | ||
| You're always like, oh God, I gotta make money or I'm gonna have to start pawning stuff around my house or whatever it is. | ||

Thank you. If you are an American receiving this transmission, you are free. | |
| I repeat, you are free. | ||
| We're patrolling the streets. | ||
| We're gonna get you. We're the boogeyman. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Like, we don't take that here in America. | |
| No. The people that gave us all this freedom, paid for in blood, were not driven or shut down by fear. | ||
| It was courage. It was bravery. | ||
| What happened to Americans? What happened to American grit? | ||
| This is American grit. | ||
| This is Infowars. This is the war room crew. | ||
| We're out here. We are 161 days out from the election and Joe Biden wants you to know that he will beat Joe Biden. | ||
| I'm prepared to say that I have a record of over 40 years and that I'm going to beat Joe Biden. | ||
| Biden has set himself up for disaster. | ||
| He is clearly an old-school racist from a bygone era. | ||
| His latest statements have created a never-ending storm of criticism. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump? | |
| And you ain't black. That is the most arrogant, condescending comment I've heard in a very long time. | ||
| 1.3 million African Americans voted for Trump. | ||
| He's saying to 1.3 million African Americans that you're not black? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It was precisely the kind of thing that a lot of Democrats are worried about Biden doing again and again on the campaign trail. | |
| I've been fighting against this notion that you're not black enough unless you think a certain way, you vote a certain way, you speak a certain way, you do certain things my whole life. | ||
| It is black voices for Trump and their statement. | ||
| I'm just going to read the first couple of sentences. | ||
| White liberal elitists have continuously dictated which black Americans are allowed to come to the table and have a voice. | ||
| It is clear now more than ever following these racist and dehumanizing remarks that Joe Biden believes black men and women are incapable of being independent or free-thinking. | ||
| He truly believes that a 77-year-old white man should dictate how black people should behave. | ||
| Democrats are scrambling to normalize the damage as their schizophrenic ideology clashes within their own ranks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I've never, ever, ever taken the African-American community for granted. | |
| I shouldn't have been such a wise guy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nothing has changed in America for Black America. | |
| And in order for us to vote for Biden, we can't be taken for granted like we always are because we're supposed to be Democrats or because people are afraid of Trump. | ||
| It's whoever's going to take care of our community. | ||
| Our vote is not for free. | ||
| Whoever wants to make a deal, it's business at this point. | ||
| You know, we can't trust politicians. | ||
| The level of hubris it takes for a white man, an old white man, or any white person, to even in jest, you know, say that he can determine who is Black and who isn't, is clearly outlandish. | ||
| But even in jest, these are kind of the kind of comments that could be problematic, but he clearly knows his audience I have to have the privilege of working directly with the vice president Actually, he swore me in as US ambassador to South Africa. | ||
| I know that he's a conscious thoughtful person on these issues regardless everyone knows that Joe Biden doesn't stand a chance We're all just patiently awaiting what will be the most embarrassing presidential debate in U.S. history. | ||
| No man has a right to raise a hand to a woman in anger. | ||
| And so we have to just change the culture, period. | ||
| And keep punching at it and punching at it and punching at it. | ||
| Ukrainian foreign minister said on Thursday that the United States ambassador did not link financial military assistance to a request for Ukraine to open up an investigation into former vice president and current democratic president. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Can you believe? Like, we need help to beat sleepy Joe Biden? | |
| I don't think so. President Trump has helped create a $75 billion investment into the poorest communities. | ||
| And now Lindsey Graham and the President are working to bring broadband into those poorest areas. | ||
| The ability to connect people who today are unconnected for learning, for medicine, and for jobs of the future. | ||
| What has Joe Biden done in the last 20 years? | ||
| And the answer is crickets. | ||
| John Bowne reporting. | ||
| The third hour of the war room has begun. | ||
| Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to InfoWars.com and The War Room. | ||
| This is Harrison Smith sitting in for Owen Schroer. | ||
| I am joined by Dave Thomas Roberts, author, business owner, Patriot Texan. | ||
| Happy to have you in here for the next 30 minutes or so. | ||
| We're talking about some interesting things here during the break. | ||
| I'm wondering where to begin. | ||
| You were talking about what you see as the next big bubble. | ||
| People are saying it's going to be the student loan debt. | ||
| You disagree. | ||
| It's actually the auto loans. | ||
| It's gotten out of control. | ||
| I read a couple of reports from a couple of different sources before the China virus hit. | ||
| The amount of auto loans that were 90 days past due in America was at an all-time high, and that was before the pandemic. | ||
| So imagine what it is now. | ||
| So that's a financial hit that's going to hit Wall Street sooner or later. | ||
| And again, here we are. | ||
| I mean, there's a lot of people, you know, you actually got to blame somewhat the banks. | ||
| I mean, given 84-month loans on cars that probably won't last 84 months. | ||
| Right. I see that I just, you know, you brought that up, so I just type in, you know, auto loans into Google News, and some of the first things that pop up are, don't rush into an 84-month auto loan. | ||
| No need to tell me twice. | ||
| You know, I mean, my God, 84-month auto loan. | ||
| And then, of course, you have this from the Brooking Institute. | ||
| Costly car loans may stall the COVID-19 economic recovery. | ||
| How sad is it that We might actually have trouble restarting the economy because a bunch of people can't pay their car loans. | ||
| I mean, it seems like such a petty thing, but they stack up, I guess, when you have millions and millions of these defaults. | ||
| Well, go back to, you know, the earlier report, the average person can't come up with $400 in an emergency. | ||
| You know, they get laid off. | ||
| They're not going to be away with their car payments. | ||
| And it's really criminal that these lenders put people, and a lot of young people, unfortunately, put people in loans, folks that have bad credit, and they put them in these loans like this. | ||
| And I mean, what do they think is going to happen? | ||
| So it's a bubble. | ||
| Well, I know with the housing bubble, That crash, people were saying, why didn't the federal government stop them from doing this? | ||
| And I was like, no, the federal government forced them to do this. | ||
| They enabled it. Yeah, they came in and said, you have to give loans, you know, to these particular people. | ||
| And so they did, and the loans were no good, and so they crashed. | ||
| So, you know, again, it's just like, you know, you think about the old lady that swallowed the fly and swallowed the spider and then swallowed the frog. | ||
| It's like, this is the government in action, right? | ||
| Everything it does creates a problem that gives it more excuses to do more. | ||
| It's just, it's almost an endless cycle. | ||
| Well, I tell you, I'm from a generation, one generation removed. | ||
| It's like, if you couldn't pay cash for the car, that means you can't afford the car. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. You know, that's long gone. | |
| You know, my dad, who is a small business owner, and you know him as well, part of the Liberty contingent down there in Houston, including Lee Cook, the operator of Phonoscope, who's kind enough to put this broadcast out on the airwaves there in Houston. | ||
| And now I've completely forgot what I was going to say about that. | ||
| But what my dad's been talking about recently is the difference between basically reality and the projection or the specter, the unreal. | ||
| And this is sort of the spiritual aspect of what we're talking about here. | ||
| And this was something we were talking about during the break is how when you're talking about money and loans, it's all very mundane. | ||
| But cash is at least real and it represents something real. | ||
| It's supposed to represent time that you've put in, time that you've worked, something you've earned. | ||
| And it's just everything is removed from reality when you have everything as debt and money represents nothing. | ||
| And there's just this almost separation from the real and the fake. | ||
| And it seems like this is part of our problem because we have no grounding. | ||
| So, you know, it's very simple. | ||
| Do you have the cash? Then you can afford it. | ||
| Suddenly you take that out of the equation and can you afford it? | ||
| Can you not? It's all very malleable and liquid and inconsistent. | ||
| And I think that's one of the problems that we're having and why people my age and younger have no financial literacy is because it all seems baffling and nonsensical to us. | ||
| Well, most folks your age probably don't carry a lot of cash. | ||
| I mean, if I went out and dug ditches for eight hours today and got paid $100 for digging ditches, and then I don't have any credit cards, I've got cash, and I'm going to go out to eat that night, Am I going to think twice about spending that whole hundred dollars to go out to eat? | ||
| I mean, the money has intrinsic value, and it's been proven to be a psychological fact that if you're paying with digital currency, whether it's a credit card or some other method, as opposed to cash, you'll spend, I think it's something like crazy, like 30% more on a credit card than you would if you were just carrying cash around. | ||
| So people, you know, and again, this goes back to the financial literacy where we're not taught about credit cards. | ||
| We're not taught about auto loans. | ||
| We're not taught about how to handle finances. | ||
| And so how to balance a checkbook. | ||
| I mean, nothing like this. And this is how we become dependent on the government. | ||
| Yeah, it really does. | ||
| I mean, it seems like a completely perfect plan to really separate people from the reality, have them live in this sort of unreality that's been, I call it a fiat reality, right? | ||
| You have fiat currency. | ||
| Well, this is reality by fiat, right? | ||
| They dictate what reality is, and it might not actually reflect the truth on the ground at all, but because they've dictated that this is reality, that's what you have to believe in, I suppose. | ||
| Right. Yeah, it's a problem. | ||
| And again, I hate to keep saying about this financial illiteracy, but it impacts every area of our life, and it's infected government, it's infected education, and it's even infected Fortune 500. | ||
| I mean, if you look at those, look at the bankruptcies, I mean, you know, why don't some of these large companies have enough money put away for a rainy day to survive a two or three month blip? | ||
| Right. And immediately start depending on bailouts. | ||
| I mean, that's a problem. | ||
| Right. Well, and this is one of the issues that I always run into when I'm arguing with losers on the internet who love socialism is, you know, they blame capitalism for this. | ||
| And I don't even know, the word capitalist to me, I'm sort of put off with anyway, because it's like saying capital is your highest goal. | ||
| Well, capital is not my highest goal. It's a means towards the highest goal. | ||
| But They seem to not understand that things like too big to fail sort of shatters the entire idea of capitalism. | ||
| The whole idea is that, again, you should suffer consequences if you are a failure, right? | ||
| If you fail, you go broke. | ||
| You don't get a huge check payout and then go retire while your company implodes. | ||
| But this is another sort of aspect of this separation of consequences even of what you do. | ||
| Everything's just been thrown for a loop. | ||
| You can literally, you know, crater not just a company, but threaten the entire financial stability of the entire world, and you get a quarter billion dollars and, you know, get to go live on a beach. | ||
| If you go back to the original bailout, which was Lee Iacocca and Chrysler, which was before your time. | ||
| Yes, but I've heard about it. | ||
| Chrysler paid every pity back. | ||
| Right. And you compare that to the Obama bailout of GM. I won't buy GM. I call it government moaners, Obama moaners, whatever you want to call it. | ||
| I just won't because they screwed the shareholders, the employees, and the preference was given to the union. | ||
| So I'll just never buy a GM again. | ||
| I can't make myself do it. | ||
| But, you know, when you're bailing out companies, I mean, if you took that type of thinking and you move it back a hundred years, they would have bailed out the manufacturers of buggy whips. | ||
| Right. Right. | ||
| Okay. I mean... | ||
| Or the people of the vinyl record industry. | ||
| I mean, there is some business Darwinism, some natural selection of things, and companies are going to come and go. | ||
| It's the natural order of things, because if you don't innovate, then you're not going to survive. | ||
| And, you know, that's part of being an entrepreneur, and these companies, they're just too big to fail. | ||
| That shouldn't even be in our vocabulary. | ||
| Right. And here it is in our fiat reality. | ||
| And I'm even, you know, I'm just, I want to just extrapolate it to everything else because it's something I've talked about on the show where you have, in Hollywood, it happens all the time where somebody will be given something like Star Wars, right? | ||
| The most important intellectual property in the history of the world, you could argue. | ||
| The most important, profitable, whatever you want to call it. | ||
| Destroy it, right? Create something that utterly fails and then be rewarded for that on the other side. | ||
| They aren't punished for it. | ||
| They aren't Right. Held to account for their failure. | ||
| And it seems like this is one of the things that's proliferating is a total lack of consequence, a lack of reality. | ||
| I guess that's the only way I can put it. | ||
| Well, then you go back to choosing winners and losers. | ||
| Exactly. All right. So what about a small manufacturing company that goes out of business? | ||
| Why didn't they get the bailout that GM did? | ||
| You know, the too big to fail thing is a real problem and it's very dangerous. | ||
| And it actually stymies innovation because if you always know that no matter what we do, if we fail, the government will bail us out. | ||
| What's going to drive innovation? | ||
| What's going to, you know, for the next big thing? | ||
| Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, we're down such a dark road almost. | ||
| Oh my gosh, the segment is almost over. | ||
| We'll be back with the final segment with David Thomas Roberts again. | ||
| His book is Unemployable. | ||
| Go out, buy this book, learn how to be your own boss, learn the lessons it took Dave an entire lifetime to understand and the lessons that you will not be getting from academia. | ||
| I know, but believe it or not, these are not taught in universities, only in this book. | ||
| Alright folks, we are back. | ||
| Final segment with David Thomas Roberts. | ||
| Again, you can find his work at defiancepress.com. | ||
| Author. Does some great historic fiction or future fiction. | ||
| What do you call the fiction books? | ||
| They're basically political thrillers, but they're based on current events, but it projects into the future. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And so far, we're right on track, unfortunately. | |
| Unfortunately, right on track, right, for the apocalypse sort of scenario that we're dealing with. | ||
| But luckily, if you've forecasted ahead, at least maybe you can handle it a little bit better than others. | ||
| We've got a couple calls for Dave coming in, so let's go out to these. | ||
| Eric in Florida. Let's talk about... | ||
| Beer companies, Sam Adams versus smaller beer companies. | ||
| Thanks for calling in, Eric. You're on the air. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, can you hear me fine? | |
| I can hear you. All right. | ||
| Welcome to the show, David. | ||
| It's good to see you on there. | ||
| Thank you. Yeah, thank you for calling in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What's your question? Well, I was just Samuel Adams that started his You know, I'm having a little bit of trouble hearing you, Eric. | |
| I think maybe Sam Adams has been a bit too friendly today, but maybe you can send us an email with your question and we can We can understand a little bit better. | ||
| I'm sorry. I got to let you go. | ||
| We're going to go to Jeff in Washington who wants to know what to do with employment opportunities. | ||
| Jeff, are you out of work because of coronavirus or are you just looking to expand your horizons? | ||
| You're on the air. What's your question? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I'm out of work because of coronavirus and absolutely looking to expand my horizons. | |
| I haven't read David's book. | ||
| I haven't heard of it before, but it sounds like something I need to check into. | ||
| Yeah, so actually in one of the previous breaks, you were talking about some of the advice that you had, some of the problems that entrepreneurs face when they're first starting out, including doubting Thomases from their friends and family that can sort of dissuade people from going out and trying something new. | ||
| But what's some advice for Jeff? | ||
| Well, Jeff, are you looking to start a business or are you just trying to find another employment opportunity? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I don't like the idea or thought of working for somebody else anymore at this point in my life. | |
| I have been an independent sound engineer, but with all the festivals and concert tours canceled recently, I have lost any opportunity for work. | ||
| So I'm doing manual labor jobs at the moment just to make ends meet. | ||
| And I've been spending my time trying to find new opportunities to work from home. | ||
| But it seems like all the online business opportunities and other work from home opportunities are really just kind of pie in the sky, you know, build a website and get people to click through your funnel and send you money for either somebody else's product or, you know, for some type of information that they don't have that you're going to give them. | ||
| I'd really like to use my skills, but trying to build a business from scratch based on your knowledge and skills seems like Very hazardous today. | ||
| Yeah, daunting. Daunting, but if you're a sound engineer, you've obviously got some skills. | ||
| I'm wondering, specifically those skills, like I think of, you know, when we need some technical expertise in areas where we don't have staff, we'll go to someplace like Fiverr. | ||
| I don't know if you've heard of that. And some of these, yeah, you know, I don't know if you have some talent that you could put there that people could hire you for that talent, you know, for a particular project. | ||
| I'd look for projects if I were you, and that would be a way to start your businesses, you know, look for, people are looking for some of the expertise that you have. | ||
| You're a sound engineer. I guarantee you there's people who are looking for your skill set. | ||
| They just don't know, you know, they got to find you. | ||
| And we go to these freelance sites like this to try to find particular talent, especially if it's just a project. | ||
| I don't know, that may be something for you to look at to try to get your talent and your expertise out there because somebody's looking for it. | ||
| We've just got to match them up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do you seem more interested in talent that actually has their own website, their own destination? | |
| I'm not a web designer by any means. | ||
| No, not for what we're talking about. | ||
| Harrison was talking about some video work. | ||
| We're in the process right now of having some people create some whiteboard animation for us, so we went to Fiverr and found some talent there. | ||
| Yeah, that's the beautiful thing about creative endeavors is nobody looks at your report card. | ||
| Nobody looks at your GPA. They look at what you've done before. | ||
| So if you've been in the business for a while, hopefully you've kept an archive of your work and you can show people, hey, here's what it sounded like before. | ||
| Here's what it sounded like after. | ||
| I can do this for you. | ||
| I always find it interesting. | ||
| I have friends that will be like sound engineers for a hotel. | ||
| And the hotel, every weekend, it has people come in to hold business conferences. | ||
| So they need somebody who's always there to handle that sort of thing. | ||
| So they're really just an independent contractor. | ||
| They're sort of their own boss, and they run the show there. | ||
| But it's a little bit more stable than a gig economy type of thing. | ||
| But Jeff, what's your primary concern right now? | ||
| Are you just looking for just to have some stability back in your life? | ||
| Are you just sort of trying to seize this opportunity and, you know, spin gold out of the straw you've been handed? | ||
| What's your ultimate goal? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, you know, waking up over the past 10 years or so, 20 years even since 9-11, it's obvious that, you know, a And, you know, I'm kicking myself in the butt today that I didn't buy Bitcoin back in 2010. | |
| And, you know, it's obvious that if I had some capital, enough capital to get started, I could easily get into some type of financial play where you can earn enough money to make ends meet just by, you know, trading cryptocurrencies or stocks or options back and forth. | ||
| If I had, you know, a foot enough to get started on something like that, I think that would probably be most satisfying where I don't actually have to go and constantly search for someone that needs me. | ||
| Right. Yeah, and I think there's probably a lot of listeners out there that are feeling the same way Jeff is. | ||
| Any sort of final words of wisdom for them? | ||
| Well, you're not going to quit. | ||
| I would tell you never to quit. | ||
| That's my favorite saying is I just... | ||
| I'm just stubborn enough that I just never quit. | ||
| And I think that's probably one of the biggest attributes to somebody like Jeff is that he's going to figure it out and he's going to do whatever it's going to take to make it work. | ||
| So I wish you luck, Jeff. | ||
| I would check out some of those places like Fiverr and see if there's any places for your talent because at least that may give you the money to go do some of the trading and options and those type of things that you want to do. | ||
| Start small and let the snowball roll and it'll grow in size. | ||
| It's cheap to get a website these days. | ||
| It's practically nothing. | ||
| You can get a really good looking site. | ||
| It can take literally 20 minutes, maybe 30 if you have to learn how to do it. | ||
| The barriers to creating your own company these days is very, very low. | ||
| I think now is a better time than ever for people to... | ||
| To go out and make that jump. | ||
| Well, thank you so much for being with us, Dave. | ||
| Once again, the book is Unemployable, How to Be Successfully Unemployed Your Entire Life. | ||
| DefiancePress.com. Where else can people find your work? | ||
| I'm on Twitter, very active on Twitter, at Texas Author, and on Facebook, David Thomas Roberts. | ||
| Thank you so much for being here. | ||
| Thanks for having me. We wish you luck in all your endeavors going forward. | ||
| Hopefully, we've inspired some people. | ||
| Hopefully, some people can get your book and learn how to pave the road for their own success. | ||
| I think that's the only way to do it. | ||
| Don't rely on anybody else. | ||
| Don't be dependent on anybody else. | ||
| You've got to forge your own path in this world. | ||
| Nobody will do it for you. | ||
| Harrison Smith sitting in for Owen Schroyer today. | ||
| I'm going to talk this segment about censorship, which, like everything else the left is desirous of, has really hit the ground running with this coronavirus nonsense and the way that it has been used, utilized to put forward agendas that Are not in favor of freedom or the American people, but serve only to support a very few in control and perpetuate their specific anti-human, you might say, ideology. | ||
| Before I talk about censorship, I want to talk about how to get around censorship, what you can do to fight back against censorship. | ||
| Do you see where I'm going with this? | ||
| The censorship of Infowars has been unparalleled, and yet we're still here. | ||
| Years after, they've kicked us off of every platform they've been able to kick us off of, including financial platforms, including distribution platforms, everything and anything. | ||
| They have attacked us from every side, yet we have survived. | ||
| The ship... is yet afloat and that is thanks to you, the info warrior out there. | ||
| We could not do this without you. | ||
| We cannot circumvent their censorship without you posting the stories. | ||
| We cannot... Create this broadcast. | ||
| Bring on the great guests. Show the videos. | ||
| We can't do any of this without you funding us. | ||
| And so, thank you for doing so. | ||
| And I implore you, if you haven't done so before, if you appreciate what we do here, if you just appreciate that there are people out here giving a voice to these beliefs that you will not see reflected anywhere with official approval. | ||
| Well, if that's you, please go to InfoWarsStore.com. | ||
| Take advantage of the Memorial Day Super Sale. | ||
| It has been extended briefly, but yes, it has been extended. | ||
| It's the biggest sale of the year, up to 70% off Store-wide, some of the most popular products on the site are 40 to 60% off, and you can get them now, but I don't know how much longer this will last. | ||
| As I know, as of the beginning of the show today, the Super Sale, the Memorial Day Super Sale, has been extended. | ||
| It may be gone by tonight. | ||
| It may be gone by tomorrow. All I know is that if you want to take advantage of these incredible offers, you've got to do so quickly. | ||
| Might I recommend TurboForce at 40% off? | ||
| That is my favorite product in the site, and I personally guarantee that you will enjoy TurboForce. | ||
| You will feel its effects. You will... | ||
| You'll enjoy it. You won't regret it. | ||
| You will thank me. And I thank you for going to Infowarsstore.com. | ||
| So censorship is one of the biggest stories of today, of course. | ||
| And this has to do mostly with Donald Trump's Twitter. | ||
| So what has happened? | ||
| Donald Trump has basically come out and threatened social media after Twitter puts warnings on his, quote, false claims. | ||
| Twitter has now implemented fact checks underneath Donald Trump's tweets. | ||
| This comes shortly after Mika Brzezinski decided to make it her crusade to get Donald Trump kicked off. | ||
| This is almost always how it happens. | ||
| You have some liberal... | ||
| Superstar, some liberal princess goes to Twitter crying and says, kick off this mean bad man. | ||
| And Twitter dutifully complies with this request. | ||
| The other one that comes to mind was, it's Rachel something. | ||
| She's some... Some blonde woman that's on British TV, and she did a big, oh, I'm going to go to Twitter and demand that they take this person down. | ||
| And then they celebrate. They say, look, Twitter took this person down. | ||
| This happens over and over, and I don't think it's coincidence that Mika Brzezinski, daughter of Zbigniew Brzezinski, went to Twitter, flexed her globalist muscles, and got this... | ||
| Orwellian fact-checking put under Donald Trump's tweets. | ||
| And one of the dishonest things about it is that it looks like it's included in the tweet, right? | ||
| If you tweet out a link, it will show a little preview of the link there in your tweet. | ||
| And that's something that you tweeted out. | ||
| Well, the fact-checks kind of look like that. | ||
| So if you aren't really paying attention, it almost looks like Donald Trump or whoever tweeted out this link for you. | ||
| But it's not. It's something that has been added later by Twitter. | ||
| So... This, of course, was not good. | ||
| Donald Trump came out and said, oh, we're going to do something about this. | ||
| And it's like, you know, everybody on the right is going, yeah, finally, finally you're doing something about this. | ||
| This is something any legitimate conservative, any true free speech activist has complained about for years. | ||
| You know, we're always being accused of being Donald Trump's sycophants. | ||
| Oh, they do everything. | ||
| They believe everything that he says. | ||
| And, of course, that's utterly untrue if you just pay a little bit of attention. | ||
| But it's especially untrue with this particular topic, the censorship on the Internet, because Donald Trump's supporters who got him into the White House have been censored and blocked and Shadow Banned constantly since before he was even elected, and he's done very little to actually help us. | ||
| He's always monitoring the situation. | ||
| I actually thought it was funny. There's a comic called Stone Toss, who's probably the most popular sort of dissident right comic creator, and he did a comic. | ||
| I'm not sure if it was released today or if it's an old one that he reposted, but he reposted it today, and it's essentially the exact... | ||
| Physical representation of the metaphor that Tom Papert and I were using yesterday, where we were talking about Donald Trump being a king up in a castle and looking down and seeing his enemies breaching the wall. | ||
| And we're down here going, please help us, Donald Trump. | ||
| We're being destroyed down here. | ||
| And he looks down from his lofty tower and says, I'm monitoring the situation. | ||
| And this was the metaphor we were using, and it was quite aptly... | ||
| Rendered in cartoon version by Stone Toss there. | ||
| So Donald Trump is finally, finally it has affected him, as Savannah Hernandez was predicting yesterday, right? | ||
| She was saying the only way Donald Trump will actually care about this is if it affects him personally. | ||
| Well, it starts to affect him personally, and so he starts to care about it. | ||
| But the most interesting thing is who the person is that is in charge of truth and safety, or whatever they call it on Twitter. | ||
| The person in charge of these fact checks. | ||
| Who this person is is a guy named Yoel Roth. | ||
| He's on Twitter. There's the comic right there for Stone Toss. | ||
| Completely accurate, as far as I can tell. | ||
| So this person, he's the head of Site Integrity on Twitter. | ||
| His name's Yoel Roth. He's on Twitter at YoYoel, Y-O-Y-O-E-L. And people have dug back in and found things that this guy believes, things that this guy has said on Twitter in public before. | ||
| It's things like this. Yeah, this is the guy in charge of... | ||
| Unbiased head of site integrity here at Twitter. | ||
| What else does he say? He says, quote, He insults Mitch McConnell. | ||
| So basically the person in charge of censoring Twitter, including the President of the United States, is somebody who clearly has deep-seated bias and hatred for Donald Trump and the people who voted for him. | ||
| It's not particularly surprising, but it is outrageous and enraging. | ||
| He also does things like call transgender people trannies, which I have no problem with. | ||
| I call them trannies. But if you are going to be the head of Twitter censorship, maybe you shouldn't be using a word that will get you kicked off of Twitter. | ||
| Let me rephrase that, rather. | ||
| It's a word that will get me get kicked off Twitter. | ||
| He is head of Twitter site Integrity. | ||
| And he's using these words. | ||
| So it's not about the... | ||
| I'm not calling him out for using these words. | ||
| I'm calling out the hypocrisy. | ||
| I'm calling out the outrageousness of having somebody who is so clearly biased, so clearly ideologically driven, and yet he is in charge of keeping things nice and even-keeled there on Twitter. | ||
| Head of site Integrity. This is from Summit News. | ||
| Head of site Integrity and election security at Twitter thinks... | ||
| There are actual Nazis in the White House. | ||
| Oh, but you can trust him to be impartial. | ||
| That's the story from Paul Joseph Watson. | ||
| So this is just another set of censorship. | ||
| It's another soft push. | ||
| It's another cranking up of the So if you're going to post something on Twitter, they're going to Let me say, are you sure about that? | ||
| This could be harmful to somebody. | ||
| Well, you know, maybe, maybe Donald Trump is actually going to stand up to them this time. | ||
| Maybe we will see their comeuppance once and for all. | ||
| He has until November to do it because this is something that he has to do to satisfy his base. | ||
| I guarantee that. The fact check. | ||
| The fact check. | ||
| That is one of the favored methods of the New World Order, of the world controllers, of the elite of the elite. | ||
| This is one of their Preferred methods of misinformation, of disinformation, of manipulating and controlling the minds of those it wishes to subjugate. | ||
| Because what does a fact check mean? | ||
| What a fact check means is that they are going to take any person that they dislike, making any comment that they disagree with, they're going to replace it or supersede it with liberal propaganda from so-called approved outlets. | ||
| And we've seen the increase of censorship really, really take off during coronavirus from YouTube saying, you know, we're not going to let anybody say anything that is counter to the World Health Organization. You have Facebook saying they are going to adopt international speech norms on its own platforms, which essentially means both of these companies are circumventing the First Amendment of the United States, which again, it's like everybody makes this argument that the First Amendment is only there to limit the | ||
| government. It is there to limit the government, but that's not what our rights are. | ||
| If somebody else, if some random other person is stopping you from exercising your rights, it's the government's job to come in and stop that person from limiting your rights. | ||
| The government's job is there to ensure our rights, not just not truncate our rights. | ||
| If it's a private company who is destroying your rights, the government is there to protect you against that. | ||
| Doesn't matter. These big tech companies do whatever they want, and they have decided that they are loyal to the international, multinational, global conglomerate of big tech, big business, and governmental entities that are responsible to nobody, have not been voted in, are not... | ||
| They don't need to justify their actions. | ||
| They are unelected. They are above us all. | ||
| They simply dictate their fiat reality to us. | ||
| And people at YouTube and Twitter, the bootlickers, are there to help make sure we are all on the same page. | ||
| So Trump threatens social media outlet with regulation or closure. | ||
| But here are some other stories about censorship from the last few days. | ||
| Facebook reportedly had evidence that its algorithms were dividing people, but top executives killed or weakened proposed solutions. | ||
| Very interesting article from Business Insider. | ||
| But yes, what you have to understand is that big tech companies... | ||
| Are full of incredibly intelligent people with no moral basis whatsoever. | ||
| Who use every aspect of human psyche to manipulate and sculpt the world to fit their own vision. | ||
| So, you can call it dopamine addiction. | ||
| You can call it hormonal manipulation. | ||
| Whatever it is, they know exactly how to... | ||
| How to get your brain to send chemicals that make you feel happy. | ||
| And one of the things that makes people actually excited or interested or happy in a weird way is conflict and is division between people. | ||
| I find it, you know, happening with myself where I'm very likely to click on a video where somebody is roasting somebody else or somebody is taking down somebody else. | ||
| You want conflict. You want division. | ||
| You want a little bit of rough and tumble. | ||
| So they take that, they manipulate it, they take advantage of it, and they actually are able to alter your mind, alter your perception, alter your reality through the manipulation of stories or what you're being fed through social media. | ||
| And in addition, you're also kept coming back there because your brain associates the dopamine that it gets from being on these sites. | ||
| This is all... Completely open. | ||
| I'm not saying anything conspiratorial here. | ||
| I'm repeating what these people have said. | ||
| Look at the founder of Napster, one of the original creators of Facebook. | ||
| He admitted this. | ||
| He said, this is what we did. | ||
| We took algorithmic addiction. | ||
| It's totally insane. | ||
| And it's happening everywhere. | ||
| It'd be one thing if just one of these outlets did this, right? | ||
| If just Twitter was really censorial and loved censoring people, Then we could maybe like deal with that. | ||
| But doesn't it strike anybody as odd that every single big tech company does exactly the same thing, censors exactly the same information? | ||
| Kicks the exact same people off on the exact same day. | ||
| They're supposed to be competitors, right? | ||
| Twitter and Facebook aren't the same thing. | ||
| Instagram and Twitter aren't the same thing. | ||
| Instagram and Facebook are the same thing. | ||
| But Google, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Twitch, all of these things, they're supposed to be competitors. | ||
| They're supposed to be independent, private companies. | ||
| That's why they're able to do a lot of what they're able to do because of the fact that they're supposed to be Private businesses that then you know if they do something wrong and their customers don't like it They're supposed to suffer some sort of consequence these this is not the case and these companies themselves don't necessarily Represent a monopoly in certain cases. They do I think Twitter has a monopoly on the type of conversations that it allows but And Google of course apps acts monopolistic if it has a challenger come up and try to create an app that will supplant one | ||
| You know YouTube or whatever. They'll just kick it off the app store, so they act monopolistic as well But it's really all of them combined as they all work together as they all Coordinate as they all make these secret agreements in back rooms to do things all at the same time In addition, you have things like MasterCard who come to places like Patreon and say, we are going to withdraw service from you unless you censor this exact person. | ||
| So it's banks and big tech and financial services all working together in shadowy back rooms in order to get on the same page, in order to put forward the same type of censorship across the board. | ||
| And it's very interesting how this seems to happen, and yet they act like they're all independent. | ||
| They're not. | ||
| YouTube is deleting comments. | ||
| This is from a few days ago. | ||
| YouTube is deleting comments with two phrases that insult China's Communist Party. | ||
| So people noticed if they were to write this phrase, I think it was something like Communist Bandit or something like that, some sort of derogative statement about the Communist Party in China, YouTube would automatically delete it within 30 seconds. | ||
| So many people noticed this that YouTube actually had to address it, and they came out and said, oops, it was an accident. | ||
| It was totally an accident, guys. | ||
| We didn't mean to censor anti-communist Chinese sentiment. | ||
| Well, that's a lie, and of course they meant to, and of course the algorithms don't accidentally do this. | ||
| You program the algorithms to do this because you are working on behalf of the communist Chinese. | ||
| Well... That's not all they've done. | ||
| Palmer Luckey says this, YouTube has deleted every comment I ever made about Wu Mao, an internet propaganda division of the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| He asks, who at Google decided to censor American comments on American videos hosted in America by an American platform that is already banned in China? | ||
| You can't get YouTube in China. | ||
| So this isn't even Google, YouTube, and Alphabet's This is a step farther, and this is, as Palmer Luckey says... | ||
| Censoring Americans talking to other Americans on an American company that is not even allowed in China and yet it's being censored on behalf of the Chinese government. | ||
| This is essentially a new form of colonialism that China is engaged in and that YouTube, Google and all of these massive big tech companies and the billionaires who own them are all actively involved in. | ||
| It should not be tolerated whatsoever. | ||
| But we continue. Michael Moore film, Planet of the Humans, has been removed from YouTube. | ||
| So you remember I covered this back a few weeks ago when it came out. | ||
| Michael Moore came out with this environmental, like a documentary about environmentalism, about how to protect the earth, about saving nature. | ||
| But, unfortunately, it didn't toe the party line. | ||
| It didn't say that, you know, the Green New Deal was the saving grace. | ||
| It didn't say that electric energy, you know, solar energy is the future and wind energy is the future and nuclear energy is evil. | ||
| It didn't say that. What it actually did was point out the problems with these things because sometimes when you're trying to... | ||
| Put forward an ideology like environmentalism, you have to point out how other people who claim to be involved in that are lying to you and are not acting effectively. | ||
| So he made this documentary, and since it didn't toe the party line, even though it was very environmentalist in its message, it still got removed from YouTube after a sustained campaign by its detractors to get it taken down because... | ||
| The type of environmentalism he was talking about is not able to be weaponized in the way the Green New Deal is in that it's simply a backdoor to get socialism into America. | ||
| But here's where it gets really scary, ladies and gentlemen, is... | ||
| You can actually make an argument for, and I don't agree with the argument, but you could make a logically sound argument for censoring people on public platforms. | ||
| But here's what's happening now. | ||
| From Infowars.com, Microsoft bans healthcare worker from Skype 24 hours after Alex Jones' interview. | ||
| Skype is not a public platform. | ||
| Skype is a private communication platform. | ||
| That he has now been banned from. | ||
| Some people use Skype as their sole communication. | ||
| You know, they don't even have phones. | ||
| They just have Skype accounts. Well, no longer, right? | ||
| But it doesn't stop there. From Newsbreak, Google Drive takes down users' personal copy of the Plandemic documentary after it was flagged by the Washington Post. | ||
| So now they've encouraged you by giving you free services to move all of your files onto the cloud But guess what folks they will delete your files from the cloud. This is where censorship goes It's not just about stopping people from saying things publicly It's about stopping you from even doing your own research from even spreading your own messages to your own friends They're stepping in and stopping you because you have wrong think a New collection one of our highest demand in InfoWars shirt | ||
