Time Text
I have a responsibility really to tune out the voices of the haters, of the people that are constantly double and triple checking and shilling for him.
Oh God, I hate these people.
Look at her ugly face the entire time.
And I don't mean ugly as in physically ugly.
I mean spiritual ugliness that exudes.
Through every aspect of her gesticulation, her facial expressions, her demeanor.
Ugly, ugly people, the both of them.
Sorry, I'll let this play out without interrupting.
Somehow they're being biased, bending over backwards, treating him like a normal candidate.
He's not a normal candidate.
He is running to end American democracies.
We know it.
He's an authoritarian to a court.
He's running to end America as we knew it.
He had four years.
And it was the best four years in recent memory compared to the last three years.
He's an authoritarian who gets deplatformed, who gets sued, who gets persecuted by the government.
Yeah, that's one hell of an authoritarian.
Sick, demented, mentally unhinged individuals, these people are.
Look at her face right there.
In Colorado, two days ago, ruled that he led an insurrection against the United States government.
Oh, the judge in Colorado, two days ago, ruled that he led an insurrection.
How does a civil judge come to that criminal finding, Joe Scarborough?
Have you asked yourself that?
Of course you haven't, because you're an idiot.
Ugly, ugly people.
Spiritually, psychologically, intellectually, which translates into physically.
He's charged with leading schemes to help overthrow the United States government.
So if they want to frame it that way, that's fine.
If you want to be fair.
If you want to be fair.
If you want to be fair, then you will frame this.
As good versus evil.
As Joe Biden being the candidate that supports American democracy.
Yep.
And Donald Trump, a candidate who supports a new form of government here, this authoritarian.
It's really that simple.
If you want to be fair.
Joe Biden, good.
Trump, bad.
If you want to be fair, okay?
We're going to get into Joe Scarborough in a second.
By the way, Reverend Allen, people go, oh, you can't compare the past Nazi leaders.
You can't compare this past Nazi leader or that past...
This is the screen grab of insanity.
You know, like in The Princess Bride, you had the pits of despair.
This is the pits of insanity.
These people, they're actors.
They're liars.
They're propagandists.
They are not shameless because they have a price.
Oh my God, he's an authoritarian.
He's going to end America as we know it because he did that the first time he had four years.
Oh, and a civil judge said he came to insurrection.
Don't ask questions, Joe.
Don't ask questions about that or other stuff that happened to you.
We'll get to that in a second.
What hasn't he done?
He hasn't done the things that the American judicial system did not allow him to do last time, but may very well allow him to do this time, or a judicial system that will be ignored by Donald Trump.
A judicial system that will be ignored by Donald Trump.
Do you remember when the Bruin decision came down from the Supreme Court, and you had states and Biden saying, We're just going to ignore it.
Oh, yeah, no, but Trump is the one who's going to ignore the judiciary.
Yeah.
And ran over by Donald Trump to create the greatest constitutional crisis of our lifetimes.
Just what in the name of sweet holy hell are you talking about, Joe?
The greatest constitutional crisis in our lifetime came when...
The current administration weaponized every aspect of the judiciary, prosecution, legal system to attack and persecute the leading rival to prevent them from becoming president.
Oh yeah, no, no, but Trump is the threat to democracy.
And I'm preaching to the choir here, but listen.
If you thought it was as bad as it's going to get, nope.
Done it yet doesn't mean he won't do it when he gets a chance to do it.
And if he has voted into office...
Then a lot of these people that are talking about literal or figurative or whatever the hell they're saying, you're going to look like idiots.
Because he will do, he will get away with, he will imprison, he will execute whoever he's allowed to imprison, execute, drive from the country.
Just look at his past.
We're looking at his past, Joe!
Four years he had.
And it was a better four years than the last three years.
Oh yeah, just look at what he's done.
Not really hard to read.
Only, again, the only thing that stood between him No doubt about it.
No doubt about it.
Let's have this cuckoo nest go, yeah, this is what you call a silo.
A two and a half minute, unhinged, baseless, factually incorrect confession through projection tirade that is delusional, if not outright psychotic.
And then you get, what was it, Al Sharpton?
That is correct.
Everything you just said is correct.
And I'd like to add one more thing.
He will kill you, your kids, and your kids' kids.
He will end the world as we know it.
He had four years.
A great, prosperous four years of peace.
There would have been more peace, except for the swamp creatures within his administration lied to him about how many soldiers were left in the countries where they wanted to continue waging war.
Oh, yeah, but Joe Scarborough.
Joe Scarborough.
It seems to me I remember a story about Joe Scarborough.
And an intern who died in his office after allegedly fainting and then hitting her head on the corner of a desk?
Well, hold on.
I mean, I know...
No, no, no.
Here we go.
Oh, it seems to me I remember a little something about that, Joe.
Oh, but that's right.
It was Trump tweets baseless conspiracy theory accusing Joe Scarborough of murder.
First of all, I don't think he accused Joe Scarborough of murder.
And one thing that I have learned over the last, what year was this?
This was May 24, 2020.
If there's one thing I've learned over the last three years, at the very least, but now it's closer to five, six years, when the media, when the lying, mockingbird propaganda media says baseless conspiracy theory, I'm not saying it's true.
I'm just saying that they use that more often than not to describe something which turns out to be true.
Remember?
Mass formation psychosis.
Baseless conspiracy theory, as confirmed by behavioral psychologists, also known as mass formation psychosis analysts.
The RONA, originating in a lab in Wuhan, China.
Baseless conspiracy theory.
Racist conspiracy theory, according to the New York Times.
What was this baseless conspiracy theory here?
They picked a nice picture of Trump for that.
They picked a nice picture of Joe Scarborough.
This is from 2020 people.
President Trump again baselessly accused Joe Scarborough of murdering his intern in 2001 in a tweet Saturday, calling on his followers to keep digging and to use forensic geniuses to find out more about the death that occurred at Scarborough's Florida office when he was a member of Congress.
What was the tweet?
Let me just see if we can get the tweet here.
The tweet apparently accused him of murder, right?
That's what fake news said there.
Let me just see here.
This is the tweet.
A blow to her head.
Body found under his desk.
Left Congress suddenly.
Big topic of discussion in Florida.
And he's a nut job, which he is, with bad ratings.
I don't know about that.
Keep digging.
Use forensic geniuses.
It's interesting here.
I didn't hear.
Oh, he's retweeting Trump calls for investigation into Joe Scarborough for murder of staffer.
And that is coming from the DC Patriots.
Well, I don't hear...
He's retweeting an article.
A blow to her head.
Body found under her desk.
Left Congress suddenly.
Big topic for discussion in Florida.
And he's a nutjob.
Well, I think I agree with pretty much everything in there.
So we go to there.
Why it matters.
Trump has had a lengthy feud with Scarborough and his wife, Mika Brzezinski, who hosts Morning Joe and are often critical of the president.
Yadda, yadda, yadda.
Okay.
Oh!
Brzezinski demanded last week, this was in 2020, that Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey stop allowing Trump to abuse the platform by spreading conspiracy theories.
Oh, yeah.
Well, a good spouse protects the spouse.
And Dorsey didn't block him then.
Dorsey had to wait until January 6th.
Okay, we're going to say go down onto the floor.
Oh, you stinky little piece of garbage.
Yeah, all right.
Authorities determined that she died after losing consciousness from an abnormal heart rhythm and collapsed, striking her head.
The Washington Post reports, police ruled that Klazutis'death was an accidental and never suspected foul play.
Well, we know the authorities would never lie.
We know the police, investigation people, things, you know.
They never are politicized, you know.
In their persecution of Trump.
They're never politicized in their non-persecution prosecution of others, you know?
Can't figure out who brought the little baggie of cocaine into the White House.
They're never, the judicial system is never weaponized, politicized in terms of who they convict, Roger Stone, Steve Bannon.
They're never politicized in terms of who they acquit, Michael Sussman.
No.
So if the authorities say nothing happened to a young woman having heart arrhythmia, Losing consciousness, striking her head on a desk, and dying.
I'll tell you one thing.
I've never known anybody that died like that.
I gotta tell you something.
Until recent memory, I've never known any young people.
This was pre-Jibby Jab.
This is 2001, so, you know, not gonna make any of this.
I've never known any young people just randomly passing out.
Period.
Oh, yeah, no, but that's it.
But the police say, look, she passed out.
She had a heart thing.
She lost consciousness, struck her head on a table, and died.
And don't suspect anything.
Shut up and go home.
Nothing to see here.
Joe Scarborough in Congress.
Okay, something's going to drive me absolutely crazy if I don't fix this.
That was too much, but we're going to live with it.
Oh gosh, now I've activated the movement on the camera.
So hold on, let me just go back to position one and see what this looks like.
Okay, so position one.
Okay, that's good enough.
And we're going to leave it there.
Good morning, people.
Good super morning, California.
Good afternoon, Europe.
Good evening, Eastern Europe.
And good morning.
Top of the morning to you, Aussie boys.
Yeah, we got stuff to talk about today.
Now, I started early for a couple of reasons.
It's Thanksgiving week.
Kids are off school, which is relaxing.
It makes for maximum efficiency among adults.
And yeah, it's totally fine.
My parents are coming to visit.
That's going to be fun.
But Robert Barnes is live at 1 o 'clock on the Durant.
And it's going to be amazing.
It is a beautiful day in Florida.
I can't pretend I'm not going to the beach this afternoon.
But I needed to get the stream in.
Morning is better than afternoon.
Barnes is live at 1 o 'clock, so I was not overlapping with Barnes.
Once we're done here, I will make sure that everybody knows where to go to see him on the Duran at 1 o 'clock.
But holy merciful goodness do we have what to talk about.
The war is on.
Attack, attack, attack.
Never defend Roger Stone's political...
Rhetoric.
Not my style, not my strategy, but my goodness.
When you're in a war for the minds, a war of information, when you're playing against people who are pathological, unhinged, deranged liars, unscrupulous scoundrels, you don't really have the luxury of giving them the benefit of the doubt.
Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are unscrupulous scoundrels.
You know who else is?
Media Matters.
We're going to get there.
But, oh God, I love that turtle shell right there.
That turtle shell is just beautiful.
But, before we get there, turtle shell replaced Barnes on this show.
No, but that turtle shell, I'll show it to everybody afterwards as it gets to the end.
Before we get started, you may have noticed, looking at myself here, we're live on Rumble.
We are.
We're live on, let me just put it on pause there.
We're live on Viva Barnes Law.
VivaBarnsLaw.locals.com.
We are.
Let me see what Bill Brown says here.
It says, I do not drink alcohol.
I drank liquor and I get it from the liquor store.
Okay.
We're live on VivaBarnsLaw.locals.com if anybody wants to head over there now.
But before we get started, you might have noticed it says this stream contains a paid promotion.
And it does.
And it's an easy one for me because it's something that I use myself.
It is...
Field of greens, people.
This morning, I went for a jog.
I came back.
I did my 25 curls of 20 pounds, 4 reps, and 4 reps of 25 push-ups just to keep a little toned.
I rehydrated.
And then I had my morning dose of vitamins, fruits, and vegetables.
It's a little-known fact that you are supposed to have between 5 and 7 servings of raw fruits and vegetables a day.
I have this.
I eat so much arugula out of the container.
It has other side effects, but set those aside.
I do my vegetables, but most people don't.
But I like to avoid unhealthy habits, which is you're in the afternoon time and you want something to refresh you, to reinvigorate you, and you don't want one of those sugar-filled, one of those toxic, chemical, fake sugar-filled drinks.
And most people do not have their five to seven services of fruits and vegetables every day.
Field of Greens is a desiccated green.
Desiccated.
It's a risky word to say with my lisp.
Desiccated, meaning pulverized, dried, and, you know, pulverized.
It's not an extract.
It's not a supplement.
It's a food.
It's USDA organic.
It's made in America.
One spoonful twice a day is one serving of fruits and vegetables with all of the antioxidants.
You do it twice a day, you get two servings of fruits and vegetables twice a day.
Fieldofgreens.com.

All right.
Thank you, Field of Greens.
It's good stuff, too.
Tastes good, and it's good for you.
Now, what I was going to say.
There was something else I had to do before we get into the meat of the day.
For those of you who don't know who I am, I should get better at the intro stuff.
You all know who I am.
Viva Fry.
David Freyheit, Montreal litigator turned Florida rumbler.
The format of the show.
I'm exclusive on Rumble.
So what we do is we start on the platform that, for the time being, still has the biggest reach, still has the biggest pool because it's Google.
The largest search engine in the world owns the largest video hosting platform in the world for now.
And they use it to monopolize thought, to...
Suppress dissident thought to hard-censor and soft-censor counter-narrative explanations which over the course of time tend to be more true than not.
We will grace them only for...
15, 30 minutes before we end on YouTube, go over to Rumble exclusively.
We're also on vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
When we end the stream on Rumble, we have a bit of an after-party on Locals, our wonderful, amazing community there.
I take questions.
We have a very interactive back and forth in the chat.
And that's it.
So we're going to cover maybe two stories here that are not related to the big story of the day, which is going to be Media Matters.
Sued by Elon Musk.
Now under investigation by Ken Paxton out of Texas.
The Shiite is hitting the Fian people.
And holy, sweet, merciful goodness, it's good.
The lawsuit Musk filed against Media Matters for America.
It's technical.
It's going to have some difficulties.
I will preface this by saying that I was only a Quebec civil attorney.
I try to make sense of the world in the way I can and hopefully make it make sense to other people.
We're going to go through it.
We're also going to talk about Trump's lawsuit against 20 some odd organizations.
It's a very simple lawsuit.
We're going to get to that as well.
But the shiznit says Tom Cornpop.
Speaking of Cornpop, where's Cornpop?
We haven't seen Cornpop in a while.
Okay, so before we even get into that, the one other thing, I have to bring it up.
I'm not fully up to date on the latest developments, but there's not going to be much going on in this.
Oh, no, that's the wrong one.
That's Texas.
We want to see our two minutes of hate from Lavrenta Barria.
I mean, sorry, Leticia James.
Here we go.
Let's just hear what...
We got a daily update, people.
Your two minutes of hate.
It's actually two minutes.
Two minutes of hate.
From none other than Lavrenta Berria, the modern iteration of Lavrenta Berria.
Her name happens to be Leticia James or Tish.
Tish James.
Let's hear what she has to say.
In the court of public opinion while prosecuting, persecuting Trump with nipple, I call him now New York nipple judge, Engoran, who recently has been overturned by an appeal judge in New York as relates to his gag order.
New York nipple judge overturned now repeatedly by the higher courts of New York.
Working in concert with Leticia James, they have the tools to fine Trump, declare him guilty of fraud by summary judgment.
Would have liquidated all of his assets, but for the higher course.
Nothing wrong with what nippled New York judge Angeron is doing.
He's taking to his alumni web page that he was hosting for a while to brag about all of his devastating decisions against Eric Trump.
Leticia James, when she's not sitting in court watching her persecution of Trump is taking it to social media while the trial is ongoing.
How this has not resulted in some sort of ethical complaint against her, I don't know because I don't know what the rules are in New York, but it smells fishy.
Today we began the eighth week of our trial.
Stop it!
The eighth week of the trial.
The eighth week of a trial for...
What are they calling it?
There was a word in the commercial sense for...
Oh, whatever.
The eighth week of the alleged fraud trial, where Trump allegedly overvalued his assets to screw the itty-bitty banks out of interest that they would have charged if they had given him a less preferential rate had he property valued his assets, even though, according to Ivanka Trump's testimony, the banks were competing for Trump's business in full awareness of fact and law.
Never let facts get in the way of a good two minutes of hate, Leticia.
Let's hear this out here.
Today we began the eighth week of our trial against Donald Trump, the Trump Organization, and other defendants.
This morning we heard testimony from yet another of the defendant's many expert witnesses.
This witness was called to offer opinions and testimony on insurance underwriting, but the majority of his testimony experience is in medical malpractice.
Oh, oh.
Did he get recognized as an expert after a voir dire, Leticia?
Which has absolutely nothing to do with our trial.
A few weeks ago, an underwriter at Zurich Insurance told us that Donald...
A few weeks ago, remember, a few weeks ago was the prosecution's case.
Now it's the defense's side.
So what's she say?
Oh, an expert came in today, but he is not a real expert.
First of all, Tish.
Was he recognized as an expert by the court?
Because it sounds like you might be undermining Judge Angeron's voir dire, where they nonetheless recognize him as an expert.
But she says, he's a bad expert.
A few weeks ago, when we had our bias experts, this is what they said, and therefore it should stand.
This is what she's doing every day after this trial.
New York.
Trump's fraudulent statements of financial condition were material to Zurich's decision to take Trump on as a client.
As a result, the Trumps got a better deal on insurance coverage than they should have.
They got a better deal on insurance coverage, never made a claim, paid their premiums, setting aside the fact that maybe these businesses were competing for Trump's business and not getting defrauded by Trump's evaluations, which contained a provision in the contracts which the judge did not allow as a defense in this case.
Okay.
But the defendants want us to believe that Zurich...
Did not actually use those statements.
Or, and I'm just spitballing here, they use their own as well.
Maybe.
Just maybe.
You know, Zurich.
Does it just say, oh, Mr. Viva, you evaluated that turtle fossil stone that you wasted money on at $10 million?
Okay, well, we'll allow you to insure it at $10 million.
And by the way, do you know what my premium for an insurance on saying that this is worth $10 million would be?
A lot more than if I said it was the hundreds of dollars that it actually cost.
A lot more.
And unless I make a claim, all that I have done is paid a higher insurance rate on overvalued assets on which I never made an insurance claim.
Never let logic get in the way of a good persecution.
They tried to say that Zurich did not do a full review of Donald Trump's finances because they wanted the Trump Organization as a client no matter what.
But their own expert agreed that Zurich did in fact do their due diligence using the information the Trumps provided.
And as the judge already ruled, that information was fraudulent.
He's already guilty, people.
This trial is only to determine how guilty.
Summary judgment guilt.
Do you know what that's called?
Communism, fascism, kangaroo court, whatever you want to call it.
It's obscene.
Next, we heard from Jeffrey Makani, former controller at the Trump Organization and one of the defendants in this trial.
He previously told us that he and the other defendants would use unsupported property values to inflate Mr. Trump's overall net worth.
Unsupported?
She's not going to mention the fact that they had an expert affiant willing to submit an affidavit to attest to the valuation of the properties that Engeron did not allow in because he's got tools, he's got bias, he's got everything he needs to get to the result he wants.
For example, when they valued Trump Park Avenue, they knowingly ignored the fact that 12 of the units were rent stabilized.
They valued those 12 units at $50 million, even though they knew they were collectively worth $750,000.
Rent stabilized.
Again, I actually have done some rental lodging litigation in Quebec.
Assuming it's mildly the same, you can have rent stabilized.
Well, there's rent stabilized.
You can only increase residential rent by so much.
But you can transform the units into something that changes their destination and, with approval of the court, get the tenants to be evicted.
Do you think they would still be worth it?
Hypothetically, you had rents.
Let's even just say, hypothetically, rent stabilized.
And I'm just thinking out loud here.
Well, if you change the destination of that building, what would it be worth?
Despite emails showing that the Trumps knew the apartments were rent stabilized.
And only appraised at $750,000.
By whom?
By whom?
Mr. McConaughey blamed the error on their accounting firm.
The error.
The defendants can keep trying to place blame on others.
Who is she looking at?
But when it comes to fraud, it really takes one to know one.
Oh, that's why we believe that you know that you're fraudulent, your fraudulency.
Oh, it takes one to know one.
And it certainly takes one to accuse one at all costs.
And Donald Trump committed fraud.
Time.
Look at the way.
Trump committed fraud.
And Donald Trump committed fraud.
Look at that little gyrity.
And we got just the judge to do it.
New York nipple judge anger up.
Who has decreed guilt already on summary judgment by excluding evidence because it was an uncontestable matter of fact that did not even need to go to the merits.
Dismissed affidavits.
Oh boy.
Psychopath is right, I've got to tell you.
I mean, it's psychopathy.
So anyways, that's what's going on in the Trump trial.
It's not, I mean, it's...
It's going to have to get overturned at a higher court because it's so egregious.
I mean, on the one hand, everybody should pull their business and lives out of New York because this is what they can do to the most powerful man in the world, or at least potentially.
This is what they can do to a man with the means to defend against this persecution.
Just imagine and understand what they do to those without the means, to those without the bullhorn, to those who no one will ever know.
That they're doing this to them, and if they sit there screaming on social media, no one will really even care.
And it will not be publicized and put on blast to the point where everybody can see in real time the absolute wholesale destruction of institutions that were intended to keep society safe, civil, and lawful.
Alright, do we have anything else that's sort of tangentially related but not really?
Looking in the back.
Oh yeah, we do, we do.
We're going to do one more before we head out of here.
One more before we head over to Rumble.
That's the link to Rumble.
And if you are so inclined and you want to come over to vivabarneslaw.locals.com, here's the link there.
Something that'll just make you puke.
It'll be a quick one.
Remember John Leguizamo?
Like, great actor.
Carlito's Way.
Benny Blanco from the Bronx.
A great actor.
The voice of that prehistoric animal in Ice Age.
I'm trying to think of what else he did.
John Leguizamo.
He was in a couple of great comedies.
He was in a couple of great dramas recently.
He's a good actor!
I like the guy as an actor.
And as much as you never know who you're, you know, never know Hollywood types, and I don't trust anybody coming out of Hollywood because it's a morally depraved cesspool of depravity.
But he was amazing as Benny Blanco from the Bronx.
Everybody has to see Carlitos Way.
It's one of the greatest movies ever.
This is what he's become.
He's become...
A sycophant cheerleader of Joe Biden.
This is, I mean, it's so gross.
I'm a counterculture.
Oh yeah, counterculture always sit there sniffing and kissing the butt of the president.
That's what they do.
Counterculture.
Outgoing introvert.
Oh, I see what you did there.
Latinx.
Underachieving, overachiever.
Okay, this is getting old already, John.
Trying to leave this blue pebble a better place than when I entered it.
Well, let me see what we got here in his profile.
I can't identify a lot of those movies.
I'm a counterculture, outgoing introvert.
He's a giant shrimp, a flat mountain.
Well, I'll tell you what he is.
He's an ass-kissing sycophant.
John Leguizamo writes, Happy birthday, Mr. President.
I don't even know if he meant it that way.
Happy birthday, Mr. President.
Had accomplished more than any president since Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
I don't know what that means, but that's my own ignorance.
Has accomplished more than any president since...
Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
Happy birthday, Mr. President.
It's so gross.
It's just gross and disgusting.
I don't know how much...
I'll tell you one thing.
Even if one wants to consider me a, you know, call me names, a Trump sycophant, which I am not because I'll criticize him when he deserves it.
I'm not taking to Twitter to wish people happy birthday, Mr. Trump.
May all your birthday dreams come true.
81. I'm talking about Biden now.
You don't look a day over 80. And your mental acuity is really impeccable.
For an 81-year-old, you're surprisingly not demented.
Oh!
What the hell has he accomplished?
Damage!
That's what he's accomplished.
Imagine this.
Trump is the end-of-the-world, World War III authoritarian tyrant who had four years of peace.
No new wars.
So peaceful, he had to have his military advisors lie to him about the amount of soldiers left in places where he wanted to take him back from.
Such a tyrant gets yeeted from social media platforms.
Three years.
Never underestimate Joe's abilities to F things up, Obama.
Three years is all it took to have actual World War III.
Inflation up the wazoo.
Rampant crime.
Open border letting in God knows whom.
Oh yeah, no, no, but Trump's the problem and happy birthday, Mr. President.
All right, let's see the number go down from 475 to something lower than that before we move over exclusively to Rumble.
Here's the link one last time.
And then we head on over to the free speech platform where we're going to talk about the war for our minds.
I feel like Alex Jones.
It's a battle for your mind, people.
It's a war for your minds and we are the counterculture.
But it's obvious.
Why is the number going up?
It's at 491.
The number has to go down before we move over.
I have to go, Jackie.
I have to go because it'll be on YouTube tomorrow.
There we go, 490.
It went to 480.
It'll be on YouTube tomorrow, maybe even this afternoon, but for the live, interactive breaking, that is Rumble's honor.
That is my privilege to bring it there.
So we are ending on YouTube.
Come on over to Rumble.
The link is in the pinned link.

Thank you to Field of Greens.
Get your scoop in twice a day.
Health, wealth, and happiness, but I like to say health brings wealth and happiness, and health is happiness.
So get healthy, stay healthy, and I will see you on Rumble in five, Oh gosh, I didn't mean to start it.
I meant to end it on here.
Ending on YouTube.
Three, two, one.
Boom shakalaka.
Okay, we're done.
Ahhhh.
Let's see here.
Okay, we're good.
And let me make sure we're good on Rumble.
We are.
Alex Jones is the reincarnation of Prophet of Old.
Alex Jones is...
That's from MSL333.
Then we got...
Parlova, or Parlova says Alex Jones, is right.
Alex Jones has been right.
His right-to-wrong ratio is exponentially better than any mainstream media news outlet out there.
Exponentially better.
He got the one big thing wrong, which, because, I mean, his Sandy Hook statements, the few that there were that he has apologized for and corrected, and which were largely...
Which were largely overwhelmed by the other statements that he made about how it was, in fact, an actual event that is being weaponized, and that was the result of authorities not doing what they had to do, which is why they demolished the school, so there'd be no evidence of their corruption, incompetence, having not implemented certain safety protocols.
Alex Jones' right-to-wrong ratio is exponentially greater than anything in MSM, but he pissed off the wrong person in 2016, and the lawfare began.
I mean, but you just tangentially think about everything the mainstream media has gotten wrong.
Big time stuff.
I mean, go back and read the Grey Lady Winks about everything the New York Times got wrong, but they didn't get it wrong.
They were lying, covering for the CIA, for intelligence, for the government.
Just recent memory.
I mean, even recent memory from the recent conflict in the Middle East.
Wrong.
On material things that ended up inflaming the situation and costing people's lives.
They were wrong on the origins of the virus.
Called it a racist conspiracy theory that was hindering the public response to suggest it came from a lab in Wuhan, China.
They said it was wrong that the government or Fauci, directly or indirectly, was engaging in...
Not GMO.
Oh, jeez, Louise, I'm having such a brain fart.
Gain-of-function.
Geez, Louise.
They lied about Fauci.
Or they covered for Fauci, got it wrong on Fauci having lied about gain-of-function research directly, indirectly through eco-alliance in the lab in Wuhan, China.
They got wrong the fact that the jibby-jab is not going to impact women's menstrual cycles.
It does.
They got wrong that it's safe and effective because we now know what we now know because it's undeniable.
The things they got wrong, but for them, oh, well, BBC just got something very, very wrong about the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza.
After getting it wrong, they put their little eratim out.
Good for them.
Who the hell sees the eratim?
No.
What the mainstream media has gotten wrong, and big stuff compared to right, pales in comparison to what Alex Jones allegedly got wrong versus what he has systematically been ahead of the curve on.
But yeah, he's the enemy.
They're the allies.
And if you think otherwise, you're a crazy, frizzy-haired extremist Canadian who moved to Florida.
Land of the free.
Home of the wild.
Okay, so the big news of the day.
It's 11.36 and we've got to make sure we're done by 1 o 'clock for Barnes.
The big news of the day.
Holy crap.
It's an all-out information war.
I sound like Alex Jones again.
It's a war for your mind, people.
And they're fighting it now.
And right now, Elon Musk is taking it to the New World Order, the globalists.
He is suing X. No, he's not suing X. X is suing Media Matters.
Trump is suing 20 organizations.
Rumble's making some statements as well.
We're going to get to all of it.
So the news is, X is suing Media Matters for a report they put out last week that led to Twitter's version of the adpocalypse.
If anybody thinks, you know, like Apple having pulled their ads, all the other ones, they're pulling it because they actually legitimately believe that their ads were running side-by-side offensive content.
If anybody believes that, naive.
That's like one-dimensional understanding.
It's a pretext.
They all want the pretext because they need the pretext to do what they want to do, and that is to shut down Twitter.
Because Twitter is now no longer a reliable, undeclared armed branch of the government since Elon took over.
So they can't rely on cooperation so they can suppress the Hunter Biden story.
Oh yeah, just another one there.
Disinformation.
Another story they got wrong.
They can no longer rely on Twitter playing ball the way they did when...
The former counsel for the FBI, James Baker, was, what was he, head counsel at Twitter?
They can no longer rely on Twitter to play ball with their backdoor meetings, monthly meetings.
Hey, you should really look out for...
So they want to shut it down.
They all want to shut it down.
And so they need the pretext.
They know it's bullshit.
They know it's a fabricated, falsified report, but it is pretextually sufficient for them to say, well, we don't want to advertise here, so let's pull our hundreds of millions of dollars of ad dollars.
And if Twitter goes bust, Twitter goes bust.
And by the way, my goodness, they haven't thought this through.
I think Elon Musk should stage, it's Black Friday, this Friday?
He should stage a Blackout Friday for Twitter.
See what these idiot hacks at mainstream media will do when they lose the only platform to promote and publicize their garbage news.
Nobody watches, nobody reads their stuff.
To begin with, their ratings are in the dump.
Take away their biggest platform to promote their disinformation.
No one's going to know that they exist.
I mean, Elon should do a Blackout Friday and let the world know and let the blue check marks who want Twitter to get shut down.
Let them see what the world would look like without Twitter.
They wouldn't be able to share their crap.
No one would know that they would exist.
But I'll tell you what.
People would still know where to find the Tim Pools of the world, the Joe Rogans of the world, the Patrick Bette Davids of the world, the Stephen Crowders of the world, the Alex Joneses of the world.
They'd know where to find them.
So anyways, that's where it starts.
Elon is suing Media Matters.
It starts with a report that Media Matters put out last week.
And I think we should start by reviewing it because I'm not sure that everybody has read it.
Here we go.
Media Matters for...
No, that's their salaries, which we're going to get to in a second.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Look at this.
Media Matters for America.
It's a propagandist outlet.
This is like Pravda-ish, Stasi-ish.
In the same way that the EIP, the Election Integrity Project, admitted on camera to doing what the government could not do directly.
In as much as the EIP admits that they are basically the propaganda arm of the government, so too is Media Matters Mutatus Mutandus.
We know who funded them.
We could still find out who currently funds them.
These are politicized, partisan extensions of the government to some extent.
And they go out and they take out the people who run counter-narrative.
They take out the people who are a threat to their monopoly of information.
And now they're going after Elon Musk and Twitter.
Look how mean that's.
Oh, look at that.
Dollar signs and X because it's all about the money, right?
Media matters.
It's all about the money in your half a million dollar CEO salary.
Yeah, Elon's the one that's all about the money.
Media matters.
This is the article.
It was the footnote in the lawsuit.
We'll get there in a second.
The footnote is dated, I think, 1117 because they updated it.
This is the headline.
And for those of you who are listening on podcasts, Viva Barnes Law for the People on Podbean and everywhere else.
Podcast beans are...
Diffused?
Okay.
As Elon...
As Musk endorses anti-Semitic conspiracy theory and his endorsement of...
This is...
I mean, in the States, it's not really, I guess, not defamatory because calling someone an anti-Semite or a white nationalist, I think, is not actionable because it's, you know, to some extent, definitionally a matter of opinion.
I mean, you could say it's a statement of fact that he's endorsing something which they consider to be anti-Semitic.
So it's a statement of fact that he's endorsing something of a matter of opinion.
The anti-Semitic conspiracy theory was him saying you spoke actual truth to a tweet in which a guy said, I'm sick of the Western Jewish communities now complaining about the consequences of their open border policies that lo and behold, we've led a ton of people into this country who don't share your values.
I'm sick.
I'm sick listening to you complain about it.
It's very...
Jewish organizations are not the only ones who have promoted diversity, open borders, nobody is illegal, sanctuary cities.
They're not the only one.
But now, given what's going on globally and the backlash that Jewish communities and Jews are facing nationally, the point is there to be made.
You promoted open borders, at least some organizations.
Some organizations promoted sanctuary cities.
Some organizations promoted nobody is illegal, diversity is our strength.
And whoa, look at that.
Well, now they're realizing...
Some people are unfortunately realizing the reality, diversity, uncontrolled diversity, when you don't have ideological consistency in terms of values of culture and values of society, might not be a strength of a society.
In fact, it might lead to the downfall of a society.
Okay, tangents closed.
As Musk endorses anti-Semitic conspiracy theory, X has been placing ads for Apple, Bravo, IBM, Oracle, and Xfinity next to pro-Nazi content.
That's a statement of fact.
And it's going to turn out to be factually correct.
And I'm putting that in quotes for anybody listening.
The question is, how did it get there?
This is the report.
CEO Linda Iaccarino previously claimed that brands are, quote, protected from the risk of being next to, end quote, toxic posts.
And by the way, the Elon Musk X lawsuit illustrates, in fact, how this is factually correct.
At scale, it's impossible.
Using algorithms to ensure 1000% accuracy at all times.
What is abundantly clear from the allegations of the lawsuit, which are still allegations that need to be proven, is Twitter is exceedingly good at ensuring that ads do not run adjacent to offensive content.
Exceedingly good.
And they have the stats to prove it.
They're allegations, but I suspect Musk is not going to make statistical allegations which can be demonstrably proven false unless they're true.
And then you got two updates in this.
Listen to this.
They published this at 11.16, November 16th, 2023, 10 in the morning, 10.05 in the morning.
There's no time for the update of the two updates.
But the same day that they published this report, update 11.16.23, IBM released a statement to the Financial Times saying that it has, quote, suspended all advertising on X while we investigate this entirely unacceptable situation, end quote.
It's preposterous.
Media Matters will update if other major companies in this report take any similar action.
Oh, and the release was, let me see here.
IBM pulls ads, Financial Times.
Okay, fine.
So we're just fact-checking that.
Oh, then the next day, look at this.
Axios reported that, quote, Apple is now pausing all advertising on X. All right, sources tell Axios.
And then we're going to get into the article, and we'll stick to the important parts.
As ex-owner Elon Musk continues his descent into white nationalist and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, his social media platform has been placing ads for major brands, yada, yada, yada, next to content that touts Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party.
The company placement come after CEO Linda Iaccarino claimed that brands are protected from being next to toxic posts, whatever.
Okay, she's been trying to court advertisers back.
But her boss last night endorsed the pernicious anti-Semitic conspiracy theory that Jewish people are supporting hordes of minorities, quote, end quote, who are, quote, flooding, end quote, into the country to replace white people.
That's actually not exactly what...
Let's see if they actually link to this.
That's actually not what the tweet said.
The tweet made no mention of to replace white people.
What it did say was that, unless I'd made a mistake, that...
The dude is done listening to the complaining of groups that have promoted open borders now complaining that the people who have crossed the borders don't share their values.
That's what I think it was.
The conspiracy was the same one that motivated the deadly 2018 Tree of Life synagogue shooting.
So let me see here.
Do they actually have this?
Oh, now they're going to get to...
Okay, cool.
X has also reinstated numerous accounts of bigots and paid far-right extremists.
You know what that means?
That there's a lot of paid left-wing extremists out there, like Lindy Lee, who I've been calling out, like Harry J. Sisson, like Brooklyn Defiant.
Who else are the paid shills for the Democrats, spouting divisive vitriolic rubbish?
Lindy Lee, yesterday, I'll pull up the tweet later, said that Ashley Babbitt was a terrorist who got killed because of Donald Trump's lies.
Oh, we'll get to that one afterwards.
Okay.
During all this Musk-induced chaos, corporate advertisements have also been appearing on pro-Hitler, Holocaust denial, white nationalists, pro-violence, and neo-Nazi accounts.
But that certainly isn't the case for the five major brands.
Okay, listen to this.
This is where it gets materially critical.
We recently found ads for Apple, Bravo, Oracle, Xfinity, and IBM.
We recently found ads.
Understand that where this is going according to the lawsuit is that Media Matters for America either created accounts or accessed accounts that were under 30 days old because there are certain less restrictions on them or they're not subject to the same rules.
They accessed those accounts and started following both Nazi accounts and Uh, big, big brand accounts and continually refreshed until such time as they got the screen grab that they wanted.
So the question is going to be here.
We recently found ads.
Uh, does that mean we found it because we put it there?
We found them.
If you continually refresh hoping for a result and then it happens and then you say, oh, look what I found.
It makes it sound like, you know, oh, it's, it's with such frequency.
Someone just, you know, we came across it.
Okay.
Next to the post about Hitler and the Nazi Party.
Here they are.
Now, let's see, because the lawsuit, I can't even see what these look like.
The lawsuit mentioned that some information was cut out of these ads in terms of...
Okay, let's see this here.
So here you got...
This is sadly true, something that most people will never be able to see, and it's a tweet from The Nationalist or something.
What people think a spiritual awakening is like versus what it's actually like.
And I don't even know if that's critical of Hitler or supportive of Hitler, but based on the title.
And then underneath, you apparently have an Apple ad.
Go to the one on the top here.
Carrie Rattle.
I don't know what any of this is.
It's a tweet thread.
Let's do some more ignored facts about the Third Reich.
After the Weimar Republic moved towards decriminalizing abortion, the Reich family outlawed it in 1934 and increased the punishment in 1943.
Okay.
1934, the punishment for abortion was five years in prison.
Then we got another tweet here.
So this looks like an account that's tweeting facts which would be supportive or show that the Reich actually might have had good policy.
I don't know.
And then underneath, you got Xfinity Post.
Okay.
And then we got a couple more examples here.
Anybody watching this will be able to see this.
Okay.
Okay.
Keep going down.
All right.
And that's it.
All right.
I think...
So that's it for the article.
I'm going to give everybody the link to this so that people should archive it on the one hand.
And, you know, internet sleuthing.
We're going to get...
That was the publication.
They updated to say, oh, look at this.
Subsequent to our findings.
IBM pulled, Apple pulled, and that's hundreds of millions of dollars in ads advertising revenue for Twitter.
What I'm going to argue, I'll play devil's advocate because it's necessary to do.
In that ad, sorry, in that publication, in that report, set aside what we're going to get into as the technical failings or potential technical fraudulent manipulations, there was no specific call to action saying, Apple should boycott, yada yada.
This is sort of, here's what's going on.
Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
Y 'all know what to do.
This is how corruption works.
They're not going to say overtly in that article, although from what people have told me, there's other tweets from Media Matters that could be a call to action.
They're not going to say it in that article.
Hey guys, now you should pull your ads because that is much less arguably tortious interference if there's an underlying tort for interfering with contracts prospective business relations.
They don't say anything.
They just say, hey, this is what we found.
Y 'all know what to do.
And y 'all just did it.
Because within two days, Apple and IBM, and then they post the updates.
And look at us, job well done.
Okay.
The only problem is, it seems that the manipulation to get those results was fraudulent manipulation.
Now, remember, and I really hope Media Matters for America is familiar, has refreshed their memory on the Oberlin.
Case where Oberlin was ordered to pay, what was it, 40-something?
I think it was $26 million after the maximum cap on damages was reduced some.
They were ordered to pay $25-30 million to Gibson's Bakery.
Because Oberlin College came out and said, Gibson's Bakery has a long history of racism and people should not do business with them.
And it basically put Gibson's Bakery out of business.
It basically killed the owner who died before they could actually see justice.
After trial, so the tortious element of the interference, because tortious interference with business contracts or prospective business operations requires an underlying tort.
If it turns out here that the underlying tort is the fraudulent misrepresentation of how they got those results which they then published, that's the underlying tort.
It will be an argument as to whether or not there's a call to action and whether or not they're just saying, okay...
Hey, you do what you got to do and these are what we got.
But I do hope that Media Matters for America is very familiar with Gibson's Bakery.
Oh yeah, and by the way, not for nothing.
I don't even know what that expression means or why I'm using it.
I heard it somewhere.
Not for nothing, everybody.
If you go to ProPublica, which gives you information on businesses, charities.
Media Matters, types, not-for-profit, 501c3.
Category, education.
Well, I think they're going to get an education right now.
Revenue, 18. Let's just round it up to $19 million.
Expenses, round it up to $16 million.
Net income, $3 million.
Let's see what their expenses are.
I don't know that we're going to get the expenses here.
Assets, debts.
Compensation.
Key employees' compensation.
Key employees and officers.
Angelo Carusone, president and CEO.
$453,651 annually.
Base.
David Brock, Chairman.
Annual salary, annual base salary, $292,000.
Cynthia Padera, Chief Operating Officer.
Base salary or base compensation, $273,000.
Does this one break down expenses?
Here we go.
Then we got the revenue.
Notable expenses.
Executive compensation, $1.2 million.
Professional fundraising fees, $1.8 million.
I'd like to know who gets those contracts.
Professional fundraising fees.
Well, you got to spend money to make money, right?
So you got to spend $1.8 million on professional fundraising fees.
I'm sure that just goes out to a public call for tender and whoever's the best gets it.
I'm sure that's how it works, right?
Wink, wink.
Nudge, nudge.
Professional fundraising, $1.8 million.
12% of the budget.
13% of the budget.
Other salaries and wages, 34% of the budget.
And then we got key compensation.
Okay, we got that already.
That's interesting.
What year was that for?
2020, 2021.
Okay, give or take.
So that's Media Matters.
It's a very profitable business fighting disinformation.
1.8 million.
Key fundraisers.
Okay, so that's, you know, that's who's working behind the scenes to take down Elon Musk because allegedly pernicious ads were being, toxic ads, no, ads were being posted next to toxic posts.
Okay, let's get into the lawsuit, shall we?
Now, we're going to skip to the end just to show you the causes of action.
And then we're gonna go digest the allegations in light of what they have to prove.
Causes of action are what they have to prove.
The allegations are how they get there.
First cause of action, interference with contract, okay?
Second cause of action, business disparagement.
We're gonna get to that, business disparagement versus defamation.
Again, people, I'm a Quebec civil attorney.
I just read the lawsuit.
This is out of Texas.
I've never practiced criminal law, and I certainly have never practiced law in America.
When I see a term business disparagement and I say, oh, why didn't they go with defamation?
And then I look it up and business disparagement is slightly different than defamation.
And we'll get to the reason why I posted the very cursory Google, some law firm on the internet explaining the difference.
Third cause of action, interference with prospective economic advantage, which we saw out of the...
Gibson's Bakery, and we've seen it in a number of other cases.
Okay, all right, so now we're outside the top here.
United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division.
Now, I don't know what the laws would be like in Texas versus California.
I could just anticipate that as far as public opinion goes, jury selection, the likelihood of getting a more favorable venue, you're better off in Texas than you are in D.C., okay?
And to the extent that the damages could be incurred in any number of areas, go for a favorable jurisdiction, a favorable venue, and not one that will screw you regardless or acquit you regardless.
X Corp vs Media Matters for America and Eric Hananoki, jury trial demanded.
Go through it quickly.
Defendant Media Matters is a self-proclaimed media watchdog that decided it would not let the truth get in the way of a story it wanted to publish about X Corp.
Looking to portray X's networking as being dominated by, quote, white nationalists and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, end quote.
Media Matters knowingly and maliciously manufactured side-by-side images.
And here's the manufactured versus doctored are two very distinct things here.
The argument is going to be that they didn't cut and paste an ad and just make a false image.
They manufactured it so they get the results.
And they, I believe, sufficiently justify it here.
They manufactured side-by-side images depicting advertisers' posts on X's corpse social media platform beside neo-Nazi and white nationalist fringe content and then portrayed these manufactured images as if they were what typical X users experience on the platform.
Media Matters designed both of these images and its resulting media strategy to drive advertisers from the platform.
Okay, we don't need to get into who X is.
It's a good place in terms of free speech.
Rumble.
I'm partial to Rumble.
Okay, so let's hear.
Let's get to the plot and then we can get into the actual...
For the last several years, Media Matters has falsely portrayed Twitter, now X, as a risky, unsafe platform for advertisers.
Contrary to those efforts, 99% of X's measured ad placement in 2023 has appeared adjacent to content scoring above the global alliance of responsible media's brand, Safety Floor.
Undeterred by the truth, Media Matters has opted for new tactics in its campaign to drive advertisers from X. Media Matters has manipulated the algorithms governing the user experience to bypass safeguards.
and create images of X's largest advertisers'paid posts adjacent to racist, incendiary content, leaving the false impression that these pairings are anything but what they actually are, manufactured, inorganic, and extraordinarily rare.
Okay.
Well, let's...
These are the allegations.
These are the intro broader ones.
And they get into more detailed ones.
Well, hold on.
We skipped one here.
Here we go.
Media Matters executed this plot in multiple steps as X's internal investigations have revealed.
Listen to this.
We can skip over the more detailed stuff because this is basically the lawsuit.
Media Matters accessed accounts that had been active for at least 30 days.
Oh, so at least, not under.
Bypassing X's ad filter for new users.
Interesting.
Media Matters then exclusively followed a small subset of users consisting entirely of accounts in one of two categories.
Those known to produce extreme content, fringe content, etc., etc., and accounts owned by X's big-named advertisers.
So they go in there.
Because the algorithm drives you to that which you're interested in seeing, presumably, these people go in there and they follow, let's call them Nazi accounts.
And they follow the big brand advertisers so that they can artificially curate the results of what Twitter is going to or X is going to algorithmically recommend by way of ads.
Okay, let's just keep going.
This is diabolical in its schemery.
The end result was a feed precision designed by Media Matters for a single purpose, to produce side-by-side ad content platement that it could screenshot in an effort to alienate advertisers.
Okay, but listen to this.
But it still wasn't enough because the pairings didn't produce what they wanted.
Media Matters therefore resorted to endlessly scrolling and refreshing its unrepresentative, hand-selected feed, generating between 13 and 15 times more advertisements per hour than viewed by the average X user, repeating this inauthentic activity until it finally received pages containing the result it wanted, controversial content next to X's largest advertisers.
They omitted Now, they do explain the rarity of these pairings because...
Twitter actually has a system to ensure that it doesn't happen.
Relying on the speed...
Okay, hold on a second.
Let's go to this here.
Here we go.
The truth bore no resemblance to Media Matters now.
In fact, IBM's Comcast and Oracle's paid posts appeared alongside the fringe content cited by Media Matters for only one viewer.
Out of more than 500 million on all of X, media matters.
Not a single authentic user of the X platform saw IBM's, Comcast, or Oracle's ads next to the content, which media matters achieved only through its manipulation of X's algorithm, as described above.
In an Apple's case, only two of more than 500 million active users saw its ads appear alongside the fringe content cited in the article, at least one of which was media matters.
I mean, it's amazing.
They could have produced a fair, accurate...
I mean, Media Matters, what they did, in fact, shows how effective and safe the advertising is on Twitter, not the contrary.
Media Matters could have produced a fair and accurate account of users' interactions with advertisements on X via basic reporting following real users documenting the actual organic production of content and advertiser pairings.
Had it done so, however, it would not have produced the outcome Media Matters so desperately desired, which was to tarnish X's reputation by associating it with racist content.
So instead, Media Matters chose to maliciously misrepresent the X experience with the intention of harming X and its business.
Okay, now scroll down here.
They published their thing.
The rest of this suit, which is not all that long, goes into more detail, but not much more detail.
Here, let's see this.
So how did Media Matters deliberately, maliciously, and fraudulently, or in an attempt for fraudulent purposes, attempt to evade their content filters?
They set out to evade, this is paragraph 29. They set out to evade X's content filters for new users by specifically using an account that had been in existence for more than 30 days.
Next, it set its account to follow only 30 users, far less than the average number of 219, severely limited the amount and type of content featured on its feed.
All of these users were either already known for posting controversial content or accounts for X's advertisers.
This is 100% of the accounts Media Matters followed were either fringe, Oh my god, it's amazing.
It's diabolical.
I mean, this is the type of stuff that you should get paid $450,000 a year to think of.
We went over this.
Even this didn't produce the content they wanted.
There was a part where they eventually, through intentionally evading X's multiple safeguards by curating the content on its feed and then repeatedly to create pairings of advertisers for major brands with this controversial content, Media Matters finally achieved its goal.
It took a screenshot and posted it.
Oh, demonstrably rare.
Yada, yada, yada.
Media Matters omitted all of this process in its article.
Obviously, it did.
Media Matters also omitted and made no attempt to clarify the rarity of these pairings.
The representation put forth by Media Matters constituted 0.00000009090909.
Okay, that is...
One, that's one, ten, a hundred, a thousand, a hundred thousand, a million, ten million.
So one in ten million, I believe that's the percentage here, internet.
I'm not all that good at math.
It's either one in ten, one in ten million, but it has to be less than maybe one in a hundred.
Infinitesimally rare, the outcome that they produced based on their tricking the algorithm only to get four screen grabs.
It's 0.0000009% of impressions served on this day in question.
Most of these pairings were not seen by literally anyone besides Media Matters' own manipulated account and no authentic user on the platform has confirmed to have ever seen any of these pairings.
Ooh, is that bad?
Is that bad?
They caused the advertisers to believe the pairings were organic.
After they published their article on November 16, advertisers pulled their ass from the site.
You'll notice what is specifically missing from the allegations of this lawsuit is a proactive call to action from Media Matters, which I'm sure they will raise and say, we didn't tell anybody to do anything.
We didn't do anything that didn't happen on its own.
But, you know, yeah, sure, okay, we did all these things, but it happened.
It still happened.
We found it.
Then we got Comcast, NBCUniversal.
Then we talk about all of them who pulled their ads.
And then we get into a little bit of description of that.
We don't care.
Okay, so we got interference with contracts.
Defendant Matt has intentionally interfered with contracts with X Corp.
That's where they're going to say, well, other than the article, did they make a call to action?
I suspect there are emails.
I suspect there are prior tweets.
And so I suspect Elon's got his ducks in a row.
That would be one thing I would be cautious about, or at least that would be one flag.
They intentionally interfered with contracts.
The argument is going to be, we just published an article.
We didn't do anything to interfere, but I suspect, you know, these people who have gotten away with it for too long probably did not weigh their words elsewhere.
They probably have emails saying, do you really want to do business here?
Or have you noticed that?
Like, a mere email.
Hey, IBM, did you guys notice that your ads are running next to the thing?
Is that interference?
I think so.
Business disparagement.
Different than defamation because business disparagement relates to the economic interests of a company.
I'll just pull that description up.
Defendant Media Matters made these statements of fact, not opinion.
Media Matters represented that X, quote, has been placing, end quote, advertisements next to anti-Semitic and racist materials.
It represented that it, quote, found, end quote.
These materials next to advertisements, as explained above, these are false.
Manipulated, dishonest, fraudulent.
Fraudulent interference with prospective business relations.
Interference with prospective economic advantage.
We reiterate all the allegations.
Defendant media matters engaged in wrongful conduct that disrupted X's corps' economic relationships.
Through extensive deception and misrepresentation, defendant media matters caused advertisers to lose faith in X corps' abilities to monitor and curate content.
To me, anybody reads this now, they're going to know, holy crap, it's actually incredibly sophisticated.
To make what Musk does, and more important than sophisticated, incredibly effective.
And then they go for fees, damages, yada, yada, yada.
I would be crapping in my boots if I were Media Matters.
Like literally.
Maybe not literally, metaphorically.
So that's the lawsuit.
Let me just pull up the thing that...
Oh, I just got another tweet from Lindy Lee.
Both business, and I'll just read it.
I need to bring up the, it's from mylawteam.com.
I double checked just to make sure it's broadly accurate.
Both business disparagement and defamation concern the spread of false information that causes harm.
However, the distinction primarily revolves around the target of the harm in a business disparagement case.
The false assertion harms the economic interest of the business versus defamation harming the reputation of the individual.
That is, you know, whatever.
A summary Google search to see why under Texas law they went with business disparagement, not defamation.
Texas law people.
What's the expression?
I'm just a boob canuck.
Don't mess with Texas.
I think I remember seeing that in movies, cartoons, sitcoms.
Don't mess with Texas.
And more specifically, don't mess with Ken Paxton.
Which one do we want to go through first here?
Here we go.
Seems, it seems that Ken Paxton made an announcement yesterday for immediate release November 20th, yesterday.
Ken Paxton, Attorney General of Texas, I believe, let me, hold on, hold on one second.
Hold on, yeah.
Hold on.
Okay, yeah, I just don't want to get, Ken Paxton, the one who just survived The most politicized impeachment process, or as I like to say, process in Texas.
Ken Paxton.
Don't mess with Texas.
Don't mess with Ken Paxton.
He made an announcement yesterday and then we'll read an article summarizing it.
For immediate release from the office of Ken Paxton, Attorney General of Texas, Attorney General Ken Paxton opens investigation into media matters for potential fraudulent activity.
Austin.
Austin, Massachusetts.
That's the joke.
That's from Road Trip.
Austin, the Office of the Attorney General, OAG, is opening an investigation into media matters for potential fraudulent activity under the Texas Business Organization Code and the Deceptive Trade Practices Act.
Yes.
And the OAG will vigorously enforce against non-profits who commit fraudulent acts in or affecting the state of Texas.
Get them, Ken.
Attorney General Paxson was extremely troubled by the allegations that Media Matters, a radical anti-free speech organization, fraudulently manipulated data on X, formerly known as Twitter.
God, I hate the fact that everybody has to throw in that caveat.
I'm just calling it Twitter.
Done.
"We are examining the issue closely to ensure that the public has not been deceived by the schemes of radical left-wing organizations who would like nothing more than to limit freedom by reducing the participation in public square," said Attorney General Paxton.
Contacts us on Twitter.
Oh, I don't follow them on Twitter.
I should probably do that.
So that's the press release posted by them and then Twitter.
Elon saying fraud has both civil and criminal penalties.
I want, like, I say I want discovery in this.
Discovery is going to be something glorious.
You imagine?
These people have been doing this with impunity for so long.
They don't know that what they're doing is wrong anymore.
They still think they're the heroes.
You will have internal correspondence like we saw with Twittergate.
Hey man, I need you to look at that for me.
Hey man, I'll give you access to a portal that will no longer be accessible shortly thereafter.
The things they must have said among themselves, among what they thought were allies and what they probably rightfully think are allies, the stuff that they must have admitted in correspondence, thinking it would never see the light of day, but more importantly, not thinking there was anything wrong with it in the first place, it's going to be a minority port orgy of evidence.
They've got to get there.
My concern, and I say this not knowing the extent of Texas anti-slap laws.
Anti-slap.
Strategic lawsuit against public participation.
Slap.
Glove slap.
Actually, we should make a meme with Homer Simpson doing the glove slap.
Strategic lawsuits against public participation is the accusation that someone is filing a lawsuit against my exercise of constitutional rights, and they're doing it to shut me up.
And so then you have these anti-slap stutes or anti-slap provisions, which says a defendant who is being sued for exercising constitutional rights, public free speech on matters of public interest.
Well, you get that lawsuit dismissed.
And sometimes you can even get legal fees.
There's like a I don't know what it is in Texas, but there's a fee provision shift.
My concern is that that is going to be I would imagine that's going to be the obvious defense of media matters.
This they are suing me.
Media Matters, X is suing Media Matters for exercise of free speech, my exercise of free speech, to publish an article of my findings.
I found it!
Don't ask me how I find it.
It's sort of like when you go metal detecting with your kids and you want to make them believe that they found a coin, so you put a coin under a leaf and then they found it.
Or you can just do it to fool people.
Hey kids, look what I found!
I mean, I found it.
I put it there, but I found it.
They're just saying, okay, well we did find it.
Whether or not you think we found it in an inorganic way, we found it.
So that's materially true.
We're reporting on matters of public interest.
And you're trying to silence us, suppress us, punish us for being reporters, whatever we are, an activist organization.
And then they say, well, we don't have to tell you how we found it.
It doesn't matter how we found it.
The fact is, we found it.
Okay, good luck with that argument.
Good luck with that argument.
In the state of Texas, where you might get a jury pool who aren't idiots.
Or I mean, that would be probably a question for the judge.
You might get a judge who's not an idiot, who wasn't born yesterday.
So what you're telling me, Media Matters, is that you published an article saying that you found this and you failed to disclose that you accessed those accounts.
You deliberately and only followed Nazis and big brands, continually refreshed Over and over again.
And then screen grabbed the four examples that you got to then write an article that portrayed it as a widespread problem on X. Oh, I did it.
And then published that knowing that it would get advertisers to pull.
That's assuming that there are no other publicly incriminating tweets statements by Media Matters, and I guarantee you there are.
Yeah, all right, well...
I was born on a day, just not yesterday.
Bada bing, bada boom.
And what do we got coming out of Reclaim the Net?
Texas Attorney General launches investigation into media matters for potential fraudulent activity, end quote, after X accused the group of manipulating data.
I think one thing is clear.
They manipulated data to get the results that they wanted and then portrayed it as a systemic problem within Twitter.
That's frickin' fraud, as far as I'm concerned.
Okay, now I think this is just...
Texas Attorney General has initiated an investigation into fraudulent activity.
Action follows accusations of X and the lawsuit, which we covered.
They faced a meaningful exodus of advertisers like IBM, Apple, etc.
Media Matters, in recent report, charged X with allowing ads to appear alongside hate speech.
Okay, oh, hateful speech.
And then we got it right there.
Echoing similar concerns, Republican Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey revealed on Sunday that his legal team is also probing the issue.
I hope you guys saved up some money.
You could save up all the money in the world.
That's not going to really get you out of criminal liability, criminal exposure to the extent there is any.
Paxton has now formally launched an investigation expressing deep concern.
And then we saw his statement.
paxton emphasized the commitment of his office to rigorously enforce laws against fraudulent acts by non-profits especially under the texas business organization's code and the deceptive trade business act If you're tired of censorship and dystopian threats against civil liberties, subscribe to Reclaim the Net.
Hashtag not the ad of the show.
Not the endorsement of the show, but they get one because Reclaim the Net is good.
I'll give everybody the link for that here.
Okay, now, did I miss...
Oh, shoot.
I might have missed Super Chats Well from the Beginning and Rumble Rants.
Oh, we only got one Rumble Rant.
Let's get this one up here.
Ginger Ninja!
I'm not...
Okay, hold on.
I'll bring it up.
Are you using it?
I'm not...
I did not today.
Are you using the HR Rumble Studio?
If so, bring this chat up.
I'm not, and it's only for one reason.
I was...
I'm not...
Okay, hold on.
I'll bring it up.
Hey, Viva, I gotta tell you something.
Are you using it?
I did not today.
Okay, no, we're well behind here, so I'm not gonna do that.
So I didn't bring it up today, but I didn't use it today.
I promise you it's gonna happen this week.
That's a promise.
Full stop, period.
Okay, thank you, Ginger Ninja.
The man made the chess set for me from scratch.
He didn't make the pieces.
He didn't make the pieces.
These are triple-weighted.
Triple-weighted.
Whatever they are, they always fall back onto their butts.
A beautiful chessboard with a two-inch, give or take, it's about two inches, border so that when the pieces get knocked off, you can leave it on the side.
That's my turtle.
Okay, so that is Paxton's thing, Paxton's announcement.
The shit is hitting the fan.
The Shi 'at is hitting the Fian for media meatters.
Oh, and by the way, I...
I mean, I'm just going to pull up a tweet from...
Chris Pavlovsky, CEO of the free speech platform, Rumble.
And he writes, and this is, oh my goodness, this is amazing.
And this is why, this is going to snowball into something bigger than Media Matters ever anticipated.
It's massive.
It's bloody massive.
Pavlovsky says, X is not alone.
I can also confirm that Media Matters has purposely misrepresented Rumble.
Their dishonesty warrants an immediate investigation at the highest levels.
Hint, Speaker Johnson and Jim Jordan.
You know what?
I would have tagged Moody, Ashley Moody, Attorney General of Florida.
And you know what?
I'm going to do it right now.
And I'll bring the receipts.
Here's my statement.
And I'm going to read Pawlowski's statement.
It's a little...
That's not long at all.
This is what CEO Chris Pawlowski is saying about Media Matters' treatment of Rumble, that it's very similar to their fraudulent, allegedly fraudulent, allegedly tortiously interfering interference with X's business.
This is what Pawlowski writes.
Media Matters is threatened by Rumble's mission to protect free speech and open internet, so the reaction is to deceive the public and scare advertisers.
Yes, it is.
It most certainly is.
For example, on March 14th, Media Matters claimed that advertisements for Netflix, which were appearing on Rumble, had been placed on videos that violated our content policies.
However, according to Google Analytics, mind-blowing, the week before publication of that Media Matters article, there had been zero page views of that video.
Zero.
That means that the Media Matters activist who took the screenshot was the first human being to actually view the Netflix ad on the video in question, though their story left the false impression that it was a widespread problem.
The same is true for most of the videos cited by Media Matters, all of which were removed from Rumble as soon as we were made aware of them.
I'm going to talk about Nick Fuentes in a bit, just to make something abundantly clear as to how damn good Rumble is.
It's clear that Media Matters intends to mislead and deceive about advertisements on Rumble in order to hamper free speech and harm law-abiding employers who only want to advertise their products and services.
Media Matters doesn't do anything for free, so who is funding this outrageous targeting activity?
I know that Soros was funding Media Matters in the past.
I don't know if it's active anymore.
Who is paying for them to target free speech and why are they afraid of free expression online?
Hard questions.
And then we go over to the graph, which evidences what Chris Pavlovsky was saying.
Now, what I'm going to do right now, just give me one second.
I'm going to end that.
That's Pavlovsky's statement.
I'm going to go to my Twitter feed, and I'm going to tweet this.
Oh, no, I want to go here.
Paste.
Okay, now I'm at the tweet.
And I'm going to...
Quote tweet, and I say, I think A.G. Moody.
No, it's Moody.
Her name was Moody?
The Attorney General, Ashley Moody, would be interested in this as well.
I noticed that I got my response from Verizon's unilateral withdrawing of $1,500 from my Bank account when I cancelled my phone subscription that I got results immediately after contacting and getting the awareness of Attorney General of Florida, Ashley Moody.
So, tweeted that out there.
Chris, Godspeed, may Attorney Generals across the country say enough is enough.
Now, let's just do one thing in real time here.
Present.
I'm going to share screen again.
Okay, this was my assessment of the lawsuit.
What we want to do is this.
George Soros, Media Matters Funding.
Media Matters Funding.
Is George Soros an investor?
Now, this is from...
What year is this from?
Okay, November 19. So someone else has done the research, apparently.
We'll see.
Read more.
To simply answer the question, yes, Soros donated $1 million to Media Matters in 2010.
According to the New York Times, he donated the money to help MMFA.
That MMFA in there is not real.
Respond to the, quote, incendiary rhetoric, end quote, a Fox News channel commentator.
Okay, so I had looked into this before.
So that's a Times Now news, whether or not it's thoroughly reputable.
You presume that's the best case scenario because even if the most critical outlets out there find that and that's the best they can do, he funded them in 2010.
Direct or indirect, as of today, I'd be curious to know.
All right.
Chat.
Ha ha ha ha Let me go here.
Pasha Moyer asks the question.
And it's the good one for anybody who plays chess.
Viva, if your chess pieces are triple-weighted, how do you tip your king over when you lose?
Never resign.
So check it out.
They're just so flipping beautiful.
I got these in Paris in 1999.
And they've actually survived.
I don't want to jinx it.
They've survived parenthood.
They've survived parenthood and doghood.
So the queen is the rounded top and the king is the pointed top.
Let's just see here.
Nope.
There's no way to resign.
So you'll have to checkmate me, good sir.
Pastor, thank you for the chat.
The joke's aside.
Yeah, checkmate me.
I'll fight to the end.
Okay, that's good.
Did we miss anything on this?
I don't think we did.
Holy cows.
Man, we've done good today.
I'd say we've done real good luck.
Okay, so we got that.
The lawsuit.
Dude, we've done everything.
Okay, so what we actually have time for now, I wanted to play us out with a good video.
Okay, so hold on a second.
What we're gonna do now, because we're gonna go over to Locals, have our after party, I wanna do two things before we do that.
I wanna give everybody the link to Locals on Rumble.
Here's the link to Locals on Rumble, if anybody wants to follow us over there for the after party.
I'm going to thank Field of Greens again.
I'm going to see that we are...
Okay, now what I'm looking for here...
This is going to be sacrilegious a little bit because I don't know where the Duran is on...
Hold on a second.
I do know where the Duran is.
I'm going to give everyone the link to the Duran.
The Duran, do they have the upcoming...
Here we go.
They do have the upcoming.
Good.
Everybody at 1 o 'clock, go watch the Duran.
Barnes is going to be on the Duran, taking flack, because there's an overlap in our audience, but there's an ideological...
We have a very diverse audience, culturally, ideologically, spiritually.
All of our audience is above average, and we have a divergence of thought on material issues.
So it's going to be an interesting...
It'll be an interesting chat in the Duran, but go check it out.
Barnes is going to be live there in 35 minutes.
So what we're going to do before that is...
Let me see.
I'm going to go to the chat here for a little bit.
Okay, that's me.
Okay, there's a couple of...
Love your energy.
PunchTV, man.
How do I...
I think PunchTV has learned that I read the comments and if they're...
Not flattering, because I'll read the insulting ones, but so long as they're not vitriolic, they have a higher chance of being read.
PudgeTV, thank you.
But tipping over is required, said DammitJanet.
Only when you resign, not when you're checkmated.
When you're checkmated, that's it.
You're done.
There's no need to tip over.
That is DammitJanet.
Okay.
We got thanks for doing this kind of...
Oh, see?
PudgeTV.
I'm going with...
Okay.
Let's see here.
Okay, well, does anyone ever ask...
Okay, I'm not...
What's going on here?
Turtle Funds Everything Except for Canada says Maple Syrup 123.
John Podesta is a founding member of Media Matters.
Hold on a second.
Let me fact check that in real time.
John Podesta, Media Matters.
I understood that the...
He currently serves as a senior advisor.
Yada, yada, yada.
Podesta served as counsel to Barack Obama.
So I'm not seeing it here.
Hold on one second.
Wikipedia.
So I'm just going to go to Wikipedia because that should...
Podesta.
Oh, John Podesta, the former chief of staff to Bill Clinton, provided office space for Media Matters early in its formation at the Center for American Progress, a democratic think tank for which Podesta established...
Which Podesta established in 2022?
Hillary Clinton advised Media Matters.
Holy shia!
Let's just pull this up for...
Let's end on the absolute grotesqueness of Media Matters.
Personnel.
Well, there's only the worst people on earth who have worked with Media Matters.
John Podesta.
Okay.
Gave him office space.
Hillary Clinton advised Media Matters in its early stages about a belief that progressives should follow conservatives in forming think tanks and advocacy groups.
According to the New York Times, Media Matters helped lay the groundwork for Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign.
Hired several best-known political professionals who have worked as Democratic operatives.
Okay.
And so on and so forth.
All right.
Well, that's great.
So Media Matters' literal awfulness.
And I want to end with...
The tweet that pissed me off from another Democrat operative, who I also believe is a paid, divisive, demoralizing individual who spews lies of the worst order.
Yeah, here we're going to go.
We're going to end with this, and then we're going to come over to vivabarneslaw.locals.com for the after party here.
Let me just pull up Incognito and bring up the tweet from Lindy Lee.
Here it is.
Lindy Lee tweets out, Lindy Lee,
political strategist, Joe Biden delegate.
Who pays this woman?
Where does she get her money from?
I want to know this.
I was listening to Tim Pool last night.
Well, I was listening to him today while I was jogging.
They were talking about...
Oh, the DDoS attacks on...
They were talking about the DDoS attacks on Rumble.
Originating in, I think it was either North Korea, China.
I'm not exactly sure.
I wasn't looking at the map while I was jogging.
And Tim was suggesting, like he's hypothesizing, who's funding these DDOS attacks?
You can change your location to make it look like someone else is doing it when you're doing it from another location.
And he says, you know, he thinks it's Democrats working with activists, intelligence doing this.
And not Chinese interests, not North Korean interests.
And I actually, call me crazy, Call me Alex Jones people, but I actually firmly believe that the Democrats are actually working with Chinese intelligence.
And I'm not joking.
And I think this is the evidence here.
I think they're working with Chinese intelligence.
I think they're working with TikTok algorithms.
I think the Dems are thriving off of promoting, exacerbating this level of divisive, spiritually degrading, socially de...
What's the word?
Decohesifying.
That's not even a word, but I like to make it up.
I think they're in on it.
And I think they're in on it with foreign intelligence, with foreign interests.
Lindy Lee, political strategist, Joe Biden delegate, Pennsylvania Gov commissioner, Princeton alumni, DNC National Finance Committee, runner.
Good for you.
And she writes all of this crap, to which I just...
I mean, I had to.
It pisses me off.
Every single one of these statements is a malicious lie.
Ashley Babbitt was an unarmed female veteran who was summarily executed by Officer Byrd.
Some people say she was Fafo.
Summarily executed doesn't even have to mean unlawful because you have lawful executions of death row inmates.
What we had was Officer Byrd.
Shooting an unarmed woman point-blank in the neck.
Whether or not she got a warning, whether or not she heard the warning that she allegedly got.
It was a summary execution of what Officer Byrd claims was a threat and he was exonerated.
But it was a summary execution of an unarmed veteran woman.
Lie number one.
Rittenhouse was found not guilty by reason of self-defense.
Technically, I guess he is a killer because he killed somebody.
That dude was out looking for trouble, like I'm out looking for a basketball match.
DePap.
What did she say about DePap?
DePap was a MAGA thug who assaulted 83-year-olds.
DePap was a Canadian illegal immigrant, Green Party card-carrying member, nudist, mentally deranged, mentally ill, leftist.
MAGA thug.
My good God.
He was an illegal immigrant, by the way.
You might want to think about that, Lindy Lee.
A Canadian illegal immigrant.
Clearly mentally ill.
Oh yeah, no, he was MAGA.
And then Trump has not even been, no one's been charged with insurrection, let alone convicted of it.
But you got some activist judge out of Colorado who, even when she dismisses a bullshit lawsuit, has to give the lefty political operators their talking point.
Meh.
Meh.
Yeah.
Okay, that was it.
And now we're going to end because I just saw I'm Not Your Buddy Guy put up a rumble rant.
I'm Not Your Buddy Guy says, if you want to know what true evil of government-run healthcare, look up the Indy Gregory NHS.
Well, I'm going to look that up after this.
I'm not going to look it up now.
But ladies and gentlemen, thus ends.
Today's broadcast.
I would invite all of you to come on over to vivabarneslaw.locals.com Oops.
I was almost about to share the link for Viva Barnes Law in the chat of the Duran.
That would have looked dirty.
Here it is.
vivabarneslaw.locals.com Come on over there.
And that is it.
Thank you all for being here.
Oh, for goodness sake, I keep forgetting to do this.
We've launched our new shirt.
It's the white pill variant iteration of politics ruins everything.
It's populism fixes everything, people.
Right there.
I love it.
Ooh, they got the short crew shirts for the women.
Look at this.
Ladies slim fit.
I might get one of those just to...
Oh, just to highlight the guns.
So we got Populism Fixes Everything.
That's our new one.
And then we've got...
It's on bumper sticker.
Then we've got Wanted for President.
We've got all of our great stuff.
In the female Slim Shirt.
Slim Shirt.
Booyah.
Oh, crap.
Now I'm going to get cancelled for swearing about my own stuff.
All right.
So that's it, everybody.
I'm going to end this on...
I'm going to end this on...
Rumble.
Come on over to vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
Barnes at 1 o 'clock on the Duran.
Thank you all for being here.
Tomorrow, I'm going to be doing another Unusual Suspects with Vincent O'Shanna, the team at Valuetainment.
They have their channel.
It's a great thing, and they invite me as a guest, so I like doing it.
I get out of the house.
I'll probably be live tomorrow, but be live throughout the week.
So that is it.
That's the schedule.
Everybody out there, thank you for being here.
Thank you for the therapy.
I hope you understand what's going on in the world a little better right now.
We can all make sense of it together.
Ending the live stream, heading on over to Rumble.
Peace out, peeps.
Rumble!
Heading on over to vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
All right, now I'm reading.
Okay, so I'm here.
FinboySlick says, Viva, don't worry.
The Duran is going to be lots of vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
Mentions already if Barnes is there.
Andrew McGarvey put out a YouTube video.
Let me see what this is.
Oh, that's the Duran link.
