| They have been in the news recently for the remarkable, in other words, worthy of a remark, but not worthy of wonder. | |
| Nobody was surprised. | |
| That a CNN executive acknowledged that they were a propaganda machine for the last four years and for the election and much else, including frightening people for ratings and the like. | |
| James O'Keefe had this man speak to someone that this man had been seeing in a situation. | |
| James has now been banned from Twitter, they say permanently, and is suing Twitter, among others, and needless to say, I'm with you, James. | |
| What exactly will you be doing now? | |
| I'm not hearing James, guys. | |
| Everything is connected properly, and I'm not hearing James. | |
| I feel bad for me. | |
| I feel bad for James. | |
| The line went dead. | |
| We have very problematic lines. | |
| Alright, we will get him back. | |
| He is suing Twitter. | |
| He is suing CNN. I believe the New York Times. | |
| What these companies have become is an American form of Pravda, as is clearly the case with CNN and all of them. | |
| Journalism has been corrupted. | |
| Well, what hasn't, my friends? | |
| It is a purely negative force, leftism. | |
| So they need to be sued by many people. | |
| They even banned the New York Post article on the BLM head who spent $3 million on a few homes. | |
| All right, James, I'm sorry about that. | |
| I have no control over the world of technology. | |
| Well, Dennis, I appreciate you having me on again, and I just want to say that we are filing a Twitter lawsuit today. | |
| I was banned on Friday for, quote, making fake accounts, unquote. | |
| That's a defamatory statement. | |
| And we're filing a lawsuit, probably in New York, literally in a matter of hours from now. | |
| And for those of you who think I'm bluffing or just doing this for a publicity stunt, your audience may or may not know. | |
| That Project Veritas recently won in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in a defamation action against the New York Times. | |
| We're one of only a handful of people who have accomplished this in the last few decades. | |
| So that means, Dennis, that we intend to get videotaped discovery into Twitter's operations, since we're already going to be doing that, into the New York Times. | |
| And we intend to publish the people under oath. | |
| Because, Dennis, there's no other option. | |
| We have to go on offense. | |
| We have to hold them accountable. | |
| They banned me on Twitter because our video exposés of CNN were too true and effective and they needed to get rid of me. | |
| And this is just principles that we're fighting for here that are universal. | |
| So we're not going to back down. | |
| I think that's fantastic. | |
| The lawyers, I'm not asking their names, but the lawyers you have, you're confident in. | |
| Well, I'll tell you this. | |
| If I can tell you the firm, we hired Claire Locke, Libby Locke, one of the best defamation lawyers in the country against the New York Times. | |
| And we're hiring Harmeet Dillon, who you all may know in California, who's an expert on Silicon Valley. | |
| But they may have immunity under Section 230, but this is not that. | |
| This is different. | |
| They've made a statement about me. | |
| Right, that's right. | |
| They're immune if somebody else makes a statement about you, but they're not immune if they make a statement. | |
| That's correct. | |
| That's correct. | |
| And I just want to highlight this because I think it's so important, because I know this is a little in the weeds, but when we sued the New York Times, the justice in New York State put out a 16-page order, and they said it was the New York Times that apparently engaged in disinformation and deception. | |
| And you have to remember, these people accuse us of what they do. | |
| They're masters of projection. | |
| So they may be impersonating things, and I've had people try to impersonate my own employees, which I never do. | |
| And I just think it's important for us to do something about the problems in society. | |
| We have to actually fight them. | |
| The only way that I know how is through the country's libel laws. | |
| You do have a recourse under... | |
| Defamation law. | |
| You can go after these people when they intentionally lie about you. | |
| You just can't do that. | |
| So, Dennis, I'm not bluffing. | |
| No, no, no. | |
| You're one of those who fight on the good side. | |
| You're not the typical guy on our side. | |
| Listen, I don't know if you have time or not. | |
| Do you? | |
| I have another five minutes or so. | |
| Okay, because, well, I've got to take a commercial break. |
