Independent journalist Matt Taibbi appears on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the current U.S. position on social media platform TikTok and the larger issues with government censorship and control as he has outlined within the ‘Twitter Files.’
Readers and observers should note how Council on Foreign Relations member Ms. Bartiromo again introduces the TikTok narrative around the ability of the Chinese government to request user data from TikTok, while Ms. Bartiromo seemingly ignores the U.S. surveillance policy that grants DOJ/FBI officials identical access to user data from Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google, Apple, etc.
However, independent thinking Matt Taibbi does a great job with that question and reminds Ms Bartiromo the Senate Select Committee functions in the USA exactly as she is concerned about the CCP acting in China. [lolol.. Go Matt!] Bartiromo quickly dodges the point and moves on. WATCH:

I like Matt Taibbi, even when he was a willfully blind lefty, he was always a curious cat. Deep State gotta Deep State. The cause of the “dramatic change” Taibbi notes has a name, it’s called Donald Trump.

It’s time to change that coin.
I could see the bias a decade ago and got rid of the boob tube. Faux news used to be fair and balanced, but that disintegrated! RSBN and OANN emerged, but I have yet to unbox the ‘tube!
I was watching a CBS program over the weekend and when the commercials came on there was about a 60 second commercial on CBS news. It was a lot of clips put together and one of them was when President Trump got up and ended the interview with the lying Lesli Stahl.
They will do ANYTHING to make him look bad.
I’ve learned to tune out commercials if I lurk onto a Pravda network. But shows like Gunsmoke now come with a warning about racism and such. Any day now they’ll change the words coming out of Matt’s mouth to Miss Kitty; “Kitty, you have every right to bed down with any gunslinger you want, male or female, and I will still want you. Here, bed down with Festus; I don’t care.”
I recently got an android box, I hear you.
I didnt watch mainstream TV for years, and now that some of the shows I enjoy, I can watch at the time they are put on, it seems to me the commercials are just horrible.
Vaxx and booster pushing, constantly. Virtue signaling beyond words. SJW ridden nonsense, the much vaunted diversity, where all the actors are anything but white. I just turn down the sound and ignore the stupid they push.
Reelz, where the new Live PD show is on, is one of the worst for it. Constant Biden loving, and constant vax nonsense.
They make me sick to my stomach.
He grew up the son of what the word journalist actually means, so credit to him for emulating Mike and not the charlatans who took over the “profession” after Mark Felt’s favorite stenographers polluted it.
Step 1: stay off twitter and tik tok. Step 2: go for coffee.
Not at Starbucks… 😉
yeah, in addition to being woke, their coffee is way too bitter
I call it “Charbucks”..

I use Twitter since Musk took over and had a lot of conservative influential voices reinstated. Yes there is a lot of Leftwing derangement on there but it’s not hard to avoid. I very much like TruthSocial too, but Twitter is measurably faster to read & navigate.
I tried Gab and loathed it. TS never would grant me an account. Twit is the only one that works for me, tho it must be the worlds biggest pRon site by now. They don’t have policies forbidding that I guess.
I wish Elon would have kept the heat on as there are still many canceled conservative people waiting to engage.
Agree with you’re. Gab. Not my cup of tea. Not sure why you’ve had problems getting on TS. I joined early last year before it really launched big time and got right in after a couple weeks.
Didn’t know a lot of conservatives were still banned. Thought that had all been cleared up.
Nope. The only way I could go back was to start a new account and just abandon the old one.
Give it a shot. There’s a lot of good info there nowadays.
none of the socials you like are free speech. the one you dont like, gab, is a free speech platform.
Yeah I’ve seen all the “testimonials” before. I still don’t like it. Enjoy.
Nope. I was banned.. I don’t even know what for. Im 70 and a just probably shared too much Appealed many times. Can’t get back on.
Create a new account with a different email.
There are some conservatives who may feel they are on thin ice on twitter because of phony deep state and DOJ investigations.
The easiest is to stay off all social media…..except for CTH.
keep going to the poisoned well. it will work this time i’m sure.
Not a fan of Truth yet. It’s not fun since it is an echo chamber. I’m giving it more time.
I haven’t been on twitter since shmanuary shmixt…
S’ok. I don’t look for “fun”; messing with idiots is a waste of the precious time we each have left in this realm.
I like TS for the information available there; echo chambers aren’t my thing either. Because TS user population is magnitudinally smaller than Twitter, I can get good breaking or new info there much faster than via Twitter, from my experience. That may be because of who I follow on either platform.
Twitter is actually pretty good now. I swore Id never go there, but it is one of the only places, you can speak your mind, and call out the leftism nonsense, without fear of being shut up.
He has improved the place, quite a lot, according to many people I follow, who have been there for many years. I just recently joined it.
Sundance is always posting stuff there too. He even retweeted a post of mine, I was quite honored! It was in regards too the constant pretending not to know things crowd in DC.
I peruse Twitter on occasion since Musk took over. I had it in the beginning with over 500 followers. Deleted it after they squelched free speech and worse. Now I am careful not to watch young girls or grandparents getting beat to a pulp. Heart wrenching.
I completely agree with your selective viewing.
While I have previously watched some twitter videos of unwarranted brutal violence, I made a decision a while back to ignore them going forward.
My reasoning: The crimes were not done to me or anyone I knew; the incidents were already history, and by the time I saw them hundreds if not thousands of others already had viewed them as well, and the authorities in that area were either already notified or had already apprehended the perp(s).
Most of the time these are just voyeuristic violence videos used to generate views. I don’t want to give the poster the additional view.
Cheers. Good coffee this morning.
Well, I liked her in opera gloves and bare shoulders
But keep in mind she COULD have said:
“I’m not sure all of our listeners will appreciate the significance of that, Matt — could you expand on that point with a fuller explanation?”
She’s at FOX, remember? She does not have the freedom to ask certain questions or follow certain narratives. Maria doesn’t mind. Paycheck.

A memory jogged from the Daily thread…the Order of Malta…a primo Catholic organization for high ranking people who think they are ‘elite’, of which Teddy Kennedy was a “Knight”.
There used to be a list of American, and other global politicians, that were members. It used to be found at their website. That was how I found out about Kennedy.
A quick modern google and search of the site, I came up empty handed.
What I know of the Order of Malta is that there is a hefty annual membership and the good knights and dames are allowed to care for the sick at Lourdes.
They are TOTALLY not related to the masonic lodge, although the Lodges in its characteristic desire to diffuse and confuse, claim that everyone is a freemason.
It is what I call the country club membership of diocese and the rich who wish to appear virtuous become members. That some of the rich Catholics also belong to freemasonry is a separate story. As you well know, cardinals, bishops and priests are lodge members and at high levels, freemasons are satanists. No idea when that transition to satanic worship occurred, but I do know that our Lord was tempted in the dessert and the evil one promised Him “the whole world”. So while God is over all, in this world the demon has some dominion.
Hope this helped. There you have it.
TY for making that point. For some reason, Folks don’t see who the real enemy is in this world.
Eph. 6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
The Word of God is our only offensive weapon.
Has anyone else heard this about the Vatican? What’s up with this?
https://greatgameindia.com/bankrupt-vatican-opens-its-first-ever-luxury-shopping-mall/
Yes…Folks think we have ‘Free Speech’ yet so much is scrubbed daily and this has been going on for some years. Remember how many times Google visited the WH while hussein was on the throne? They weren’t there for lunch. So while our ‘Free Speech’ is being erased and censored, they open the door wide for our enemy and fight for their ‘free speech’ while it’s killing our children. Unbelievable.
Yes Jude sadly I read about this.
It was opened by Frank the pope while he constantly talks about consumerism and its effects on the environment.
But here’s his shopping mall there for pilgrims to purchase likely for religious items made in china. This while the underground faithful Catholics in china are being jailed and tortured.
The Catholic bishops in china are nominated by none other than the ccp and then approved by frank-an arrangement arranged by pedophile and pederast mccarick just before he was exposed by Archbishop Vigano(who now is in hiding). Apparently noone knows where mccarick is-he disappeared in the middle of the night while at a monastery where he WAS to do prayer and fasting. It is likely he is somewhere in the Caribbean, praying on young boys and living the life that will take him to hell- if unrepentant.
You think things are bad in US politics?! I believe they are much worse in the Catholic Church.
The diabolic is rampant. And yes, prayer, sacrifice and God’s intervention CAN get us out of this mess.
I was totally taken by surprise by this one. I had not heard of this before anywhere. I think this is HUGE. I don’t understand why this is not being reported on. The VATICAN bankrupt??? Do you have any thoughts on why this is not front page news? Censorship? If so, why??
NWO-destroy the Church and world. Replace it with the beast and the prophet of Revelation
Just my take on things
Shameful.
I hate Tony Hawk. He is a poseur in the extreme. He ripped off the greatest skateboarder of all time, an Aussie named Taz Pappas., stole his tricks and kept him from competing in the competition when Tony “broke” the world record and “landed” a 900, which Pappas pioneered.
Elon only went there a few times, listened, sized them up, didn’t have much to say, and he refused the invitation last time around as well.
He commented on this gathering recently, and also called them out on their BS. Called the lot of them dangerous to human freedoms.
Facts matter.
I trust the guy, because what he says, makes a lot of sense, and he does not like the globalist’s either. He has stated this, numerous times.
SD has also noticed Elon doesnt play the pretending not to know things game as well.
Elon is a real mixed bag. While he’s doing ‘good’ on one hand, he’s also pushing for the computer inserts into people’s brains. Jury’s still out on this guy.
See this article on Musk’s works: https://greatgameindia.com/elon-musk-neuralink-monkeys/
Exactly. She also stated that “American media is owned by American companies” to which I say, so what, the more important point is that American MSM is OWNED AND CONTROLLED BY THE GLOBALIST CABAL….ALL of it, including her network.
more importantly…and I think most people are familiar….maria got her bones and cred covering wallstreet and the stock market.
she isn’t going to piss on the hand that has made here very wealthy.
God Bless America
She likes to have her paycheck signed before its deposited.
I like Maria. She was very knowledgeable about the spying on Trump, but after Lou Dobbs got canned by Fox for being too pro-Trump, she had to lay low. I did Google her salary- $10 million per year.
nice. 98% of people do not make that in a lifetime.
Well I guess Maria could have called it Tick Toc instead of Tick Tack (twice) which is/was a breath mint. Funny how no one corrected her. Manners by Taibbi for sure.
My second laugh was when I had to wipe my screen off with something on there that looked like a Bindi (red dot) on Maria’s third eye. LOL and Snort.
Imagine her using all of her fire to ask her questions in a peaceful manner in a congenial conversation?.
Not sure why her panties were in such a twist interviewing Taibbi. I guess she doesn’t like a free range conversation with uncharted answers. I might have missed it if she bared her feral teeth. But her claws were in he voice.
Captain Obvious to me it was, Maria thought Taibbi not worth her time.
Retired IG – That it what I thought her to say, so thank you for confirming. That says something about her to me that she can’t even pronounce correctly the title of her discussion.
Her voice grated on my nerves. At one time, I thought she was ‘doing her job’, but, as with a BUNCH of other folks in the media and elsewhere.. disappointing.
Ditto.
deleted by me.
Thanks, I heard that too.
I shoulda scrolled.
Like Tucker, she has a paycheck that has to be signed.
Was just reading a new Substack article by Matt Taibbi, then saw this post, so sharing it here. Titled “People Can Win”:
https://www.racket.news/p/people-can-win
Many thanks for posting this, it is stunning that a liberal would write things that folks here have been expressing concern about for the few years I’ve been reading this blog. Gives me hope and that’s not an easy thing to come by these days.
Taibbi was a #NeverRussiagater, and was canceled for it. It wasn’t so much about defending Trump, per se, as it was about the absurdity of the whole concoction, and the MSM’s alleged “journalism” of the time. The whole episode was B.S. from top to bottom, and he wrote about it as such. The Left hated him for it.
I saw him on Joe Rogan… oh… a few weeks back… and I think this whole #TwitterFiles deal has shocked him into reality, like a healthy dose of voltage from an AED.
As Sundance has written several times, Taibbi is just scratching the surface of a very Big Picture. BUT the more folks who travel in/around his circles and can promote The Truth, the better… and some of those folks have very big audiences: Joe Rogan, Russell Brand, Tim Pool, Jimmy Dore, etc. etc. That’s about 25 million subscribers on YouTube alone, right there… and they’ve all taking the bull crap head-on over the last couple of years… keeping that large audience informed.
The other previous liberal real journalist is Glenn Greenwald, who experienced the reality of censorship on the site he founded ‘The Intercept’ and wound up leaving as a result. I ‘discovered’ Greenwald 1st a year or so ago and Taibbi a few months later. I subscribe to both as well as Tim Pool’s Timcast. Their perspective and insight is refreshing.
But the Treehouse is my only daily read. Sundance’s analysis is the best and I see it turning up in more & more places.
Rhyming of history,…
When Johnson said “that’s it! If I’ve lost Chronkite, I’m done!” and soon after announced he wouldn’t run for re-election.
These lib talking heads, like harrelsons SNL monologue, are saying things in such a way that their audiences can’t just stick their fingers in their ears and yell “la la la, I am not LISTENING!”
We’re talking people that actually think Fox news is MAGA Central.
It’s a sign that we may be taking ONE hill, on the battlefield. Still a long way to go, but it’s ground we ARE taking and holding.
Taibbi went to substack a year before the twitter files, so he’s known for some time. Also, they may have attempted to cancel him, but they were not successful. They’ve got nothing on him. The more they try to cancel him, the worse their narrative becomes because he’s still a liberal, which implies THEY are the ones who’ve changed.
Glenn Greenwald has him on his Rumble podcast too, and always talks about his findings.
We are STARTING to see clear signs that some of the liberal opinion shapers are starting to red pill.
Joe Rogan, taibbi, Bill Maher,dershowitz and others are at the beginning stages, even THEY are starting to realise just too much that makes no sense.
They are by no means “there, yet” but then red-pilling is a PROCESS, and it takes time.
It would be more accurate to say it is taking a series of big, hard to swallow red pills, and after the FIRST one, the rest, one by one and over time, are a little easier to swallow.
The long interview with Tucker Carlson was clarifying, and to me it was obvious that while he has swallowed the first, and a couple of more, he still has a ways to go.
The thing is, such people are not only “opinion shapers”, they also to some degree REFLECT the opinions of their audiences.
That they are speaking truth, even a little, knowing the villification, condemnation and cancelling they are opening themselves up to, says to me “they aren’t the only” liberals beginning to think that way.
THIS, as repugnant as it may be, is a sign we are approaching the end of the road. Repugnant because it’s when the same crazed lefty libtards that assaulted us for not wearing masks, etc. finally red pill sufficiently that THEY begin to reject the false narratives, when the artificial, created and stoked DIVISIONS drop away, that the madness ends.
When the King and Queen glance over the parapet, and see the commoners squabling and fighting amongst themselves, the exchange a high five, and order a bottle if champaign.
Because they know as long as the rabble are fighting for scraps amongst themselves, the King and Queen are secure.
It’s when the rabble unite, and drag out the torches and pitchforks, that the tyrants are in trouble.
Wait til the “opinion shapers” figure out the poison death shots and transhumanism. That should be a hoot!
Yes. Good article. Read it last night.
This government is illegitimate and working to null our Bill of Rights.
Truth is we have no rights
Truth is our rights come from God! America is exceptional because our Founders believed our rights come from God and are therefore unalienable and not from some bureaucratic government as contained in the Declaration of Independence and in the Bill of Rights! We’re still the only country on this earth where our rights are God given not subject to the state and the whims of man. Obama tried to denigrate our exceptionalism as believing we’re better than other countries and that every country believes they’re exceptional. Our rights are unalienable and can’t be taken away by the leftist activist Fed Judiciary, Congress, ChiCom Joe, Barry Soweto, the deep state, the WEF or Euroweenies! Truth is we have rights!
It’s not that our rights come from God but denied by men.
I agree with the 1st part of your comment, but not so much with the 2nd. We have them (rights), given to us by Almighty God. We just choose not to use them productively.
I still hold the Second in my hands.
I as well
It is failure to properly utilise the 10th, not the second, that has got us to where we are.
The 2nd remains a last resort, and we are not close to being THERE, yet IMHO.
We have rights. When government or individuals don’t like us making use of them does not change the fact that we have rights.
The bully in the schoolyard bellows, “YOU can’t play with us!” And some of the kids will mill about, traumatized, hoping for the bully to change his mind so they can join him.
Other kids gradually lose interest in the drama, ignore the bully and go have their own fun.
And when someone who has their fill of the nonsense walks right up to that bully and knocks him off his perch, everybody else cheers!
Our world needs far less useless hand wringers and more righteous heroes.

Ms. Bartiromo’s questions seem focused on asking about his feelings; ‘how do you feel’ about this, and that each time he brings up facts she asks how he feels. Never noticed that before about her.
LOL! Very interesting observation. This is not a ‘therapy session’.
“Bartiromo again introduces the TikTok narrative around the ability of the Chinese government to request user data from TikTok, while Ms. Bartiromo seemingly ignores the U.S. surveillance policy that grants DOJ/FBI officials identical access to user data from Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google, Apple, etc.”
There is one BIG difference: Chinese laws permits the Communist Uni-Party to seize data from all companies.
American law, starting with the First and Fourth Amendments, forbids our Communist Uni-Party from seizing data, but they do it anyway with their Corporate Fascist partners.
While pretending they’re not Raping the Constitution.
Does this look much different from what China does?
As with the Patriot Act, they will have no problem deeming anything against their Deep State narrative to be in the interest of National Security.
Banking, medical protocols, parents speaking out against porn in schools, whatever illness is useful to them, ALL. OF . IT.
When it comes to spying on Americans…
The Chinese platform is like a Tokking Time Bomb 🙂
correct…examine/review this reality for a comparison.
ccp locks down all sars research data at wuhan institute of virology. surely IT KNOWS the data would be damning…so it not just demands it, but OWNS IT.
but then what does the USG do? it classifies and then refuses to provide congress with information about it’s findings and analysis of not just the lab leak hypothesis but also the level of CCP military involvement.
at some point, both of these two stories have a venn diagram…where the center overlap seems to be:
concealment
military/govt funding and directly research
coordination and not just science partners.
it’s very possible that the reason for both ccp and the USG not being fortcoming and blocking inner communications and “science” data is because it would reveal a larger truth: a mutual interest that involves trillions of dollars and quiet secret under table deals.
we might have to recenter our thesis on why the bioweapon.
we “they” say…gain of function is necessary to predict and then develop vaccines….it’s quite possible that is literally creating a bioweapon that can then be a crisis by which only a handful of pharmas can solve…and of course, can only solve them with govt “intervention” (read: permission). It’s a closed profit system.

“Matt Taibbi, even when he was a willfully blind lefty, he was always a curious cat…”
He is, and always has been, that increasingly rare breed of journalist that actually follows the facts of a story and tries to report on them accurately, regardless of his personal opinion of the subject or the people involved. Old school – wish we had more like him and less like Maria “what line am I supposed to be pushing here, boss?” Bartiromo!
“increasingly rare breed of journalist that actually follows the facts of a story”
When I read Woodstein’s books and watched All The President’s Men, I was sold the impression that journalists worked the phones, walked to people’s homes for information and fretted with their editors about whether the story was solid.
It would have been more honest for them to have said right off the start that journalists don’t dig up information, they have it handed to them, and in the case of Woodward, used to work in the intelligence area of the Pentagon and that he was placed at the WaPo and that he knew Felt from his days at the Pentagon and the reason Felt gave him the roadmap is because Felt was pissed off at Nixon for passing him over in favor of Pat Gray.
I actually question that accepted narrative, on Felts motivation.
If, as you say, Woodward was “placed” at WaPo, WHO placed him, and was he placed there in order to break the Watergate story, that “brought down a President”?
Who were the burglars? All “ex-CIA” (as if there IS such a thing,…it’s like “ex-mafia!) so did Nixon piss off the I/C enough that they ran an Intel op, in order to drive him out?
It MAY have been that Felt harbored bitterness at being passed over, if so that would have been known by some in Intel.
And could well have been exploited.
“Who were the burglars? All “ex-CIA””
In the documentary piece, rich man’s trick, one of Nixon’s staffers recalls the rumors that the Dems had information on JFK’s assassination and were about to release it and HW Bush, upon hearing this, ‘broke out in assholes and shit himself to death.’
“If, as you say, Woodward was “placed” at WaPo, WHO placed him, and was he placed there in order to break the Watergate story,”
fair point, and no one could have seen the stars align as they did, but as recall in the early or mid 70s there were hearings in which a CIA guy either admitted or at least didn’t deny (I apologize for my fuzzy memory on the spur of the moment) that CIA agents were employed by television and print media.
Then there is this broad, Asha Rangappa, who was on the news today saying Trump supporters were the ones who rammed the Capitol barricades. Bongino has taken her apart numerous time for her being a vessel for disinformation in some cases and a disseminator in other cases.
Like the broad who used to be Twitter’s legal advisor, Gadde, it is fun to note that POS POCs are now put front and center in the dissemination / censor business so that if anyone questions them accusations of racism fly.

Before I die, I would like to meet two people in person.
The first, is President Donald J. Trump,
The second, the man known as “Sundance” who runs this site.
God Bless them both for what they do.
There will be long lines for both of them. 😀😀
Well said Mark.
As Morning Joe’s Mika Brzezinski once said about controlling the narrative, “that’s OUR job”.
Cuomo, the younger idiot, said that too. Remember? He said we couldn’t read WikiLeaks. ILLary’s drone.
Thanks Matt for continuing to bravely stand on your principles when so many others in the media sold them out long ago.
The old joke: “Doctor, it hurts when I go like this!” (Patient swings arm in a circle.)
Doctor: “Then don’t go like that: $5.00 please!”

It’s not just TikTok, and it’s not just foreign agents.
This bill is a major power grab by the US Govt.
TikTok is a red herring being used to squeak the bill by.
Check it out.
Is that the one Sinema killed?
Reading your post brings to mind Bob Newhart’s skit on MAD TV.
It’s called “Stop It!”
If someone could find and post it, YTG would be oh, so grateful.
The essential point begins at about 2:30
Here ya go.
Here’s a link to the “Stop It!” skit:
Same “therapy” would work for kids boys who think they’re girls, et al.
Exactly!
I don’t want the U.S. to “steal” my data, or anyone else for that matter!”
Then stay off the i-net, do not use phones, or be around anyone with a phone, . .in fact you might want to look for a remote cave to live in.
Truly how does one avoid the vultures?

Budda dum…splish..! 🥁
Thank you for this, SD. While I agree with Matt on most points, his description of the politicsl parties being total opposites of what they were doesn’t really match reality. Perhaps they were portrayed that way in the media and Matt was part of that problem. The original republican party has been anti-slavery, pro constitution (pro 2A), pro life, etc. and perhaps some Democrats may have fit into that. But the “party of JFK” is now Marxist/Communist, and the RINOs have been enablers. If not for PDJT, none of the corruption would have been exposed. As a sidebar, in some of the speeches that Malcolm X gave, setting aside his dislike of this country, he said that the (white) liberals are much more dangerous than the (white) Conservatives, because the liberals are deceitful and pretend to be your friend while they use/exploit you.
Agree with this assessment…listened to an interview with Senator Ron Johnson recently and he talked, at length, about how “those on the Left” want total control of peoples’ lives and think they know better than we do how to run our businesses and raise our families. That is true, but at NO point in the interview did he ever mention the willful complicity of the vast majority of the Republican Party to enable the Democrats to do what they have done! The GOPe runs on promises of what they will do IF they are given the Majority but even with BOTH Houses of Congress AND the White House, they NEVER actually follow through on any of those promises!
What he accurately describes (the attitude of entitlement) he mis-ascribes to ,”Democrats” actually applies to both wings of the Uniparty elites.
WE ought to firmly support the elimination of the fillibuster rule, regardless if which party is in power.
Nobody noticed, but the LEADERSHIP does not want that rule abolished, has nothing to do with party.
Prior to 2022 election, the Dems had majority status in Senate, and the lib activist base wanted them to repeal it.
So, the introduced bill to repeal it, AT THE SAME TIME that they introduced massive $740 billion GND.
They NEVER introduce two major bills simultaneously, but they did.
Then got everyone distracted with the antics of manchin and synema, and focused on their refusal to vote on the BBB monstrosity, Kirsten in the bathroom, manchin getting boned etc, and nobody noticed they didn’t repeal the fillibuster rule.
Which was the real point of the whole charade, the Kabuki theater.
No “party” (wing of the Uniparty) is ever going to get 60 seats in the Senate, therefore the Senate leadership can block any legislation the Uniparty doesn’t want to pass, while “allowing” whichever party needs to reinforce it’s (fake) image to it’s base.
Think 50 Obummercare repeals, all blocked.
Kabuki theater, NOTHING happens in Congress that is unscripted, hadn’t since one almost beat another to death with a cane, for calling him a “Damn liar”.
Ah, now THOSE were the days! No ‘fillibuster Rule’ either.
For BOTH parties actually, there has ALWAYS been a disconnect between the elites, that control the $, and the hierarchy of national and state parties, and THE BASE.
As aware as we now are if how abused the the R party base has been by the RNC/GOPe wing, the DNC has done the same abuse of THEIR base.
They allow populist candidates to run in the primaries, because populist candidates generate interest, excitement and energy.
Then they rig the process, to ‘knock off’ the populist, urge the disappointed base to “unite the party, to beat the other guys”, cause they are worse.
Dems have been doing it for YEARS; Edwards, for instance was a populist, pissed off the party elites, and so they “bumped him off” by exposing his dirty secret.
Sometimes they initiate a fake populist, similar to a “splitter candidate” or a fighter that has agreed to “take a dive, in the 3rd round”.
Liberals of ANY race are Dangerous, and there are plenty of non-whites trouble making lefties.
Eyes; they be a openin’ little by little!
(apologies to “Wordsmith” for my smithing)! LOL
I’m going to have to disagree a bit on this one, I believe it may be a ‘slippery slope’.
I was uncomfortable with how this young man took our Free Speech and extended it to the ‘propaganda of foreigners’. He says that it is the ‘Principle of Free Speech’. I do not believe that the seduction of our people is an especially wise thing to be encouraged. It can very easily be detrimental and cause them confusion.
Starting at approx. 3:15, Matt opens a door that is better left closed, in my opinion. He states that the Am. people can withstand the propaganda of other countries. There is both Truth and error in this statement. The truth is that we are a vibrant and strong country that, at least historically, has withstood such propaganda. However, the reality of today is that socialism/marxism has taken quite a foothold in our country and that has happened as a result of seductive propaganda. He is correct when he states that he doubts that they will succeed unless we do a very very bad job of talking to our own people about what our goals are. Sadly, this is what has taken place. When the teachers in many of our schools at all levels do not teach Am. goals, but those of socialism, etc., we’ve already done a very very poor job. I do not believe it to be wise to further add to the ‘indoctrination’ by supporting foreign propaganda and branding it as ‘Free Speech’. It is, in fact, weaponized speech.
Scripture warns: 1 Cor. 10: 12 Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.
“The safest road to hell is the gradual one – the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts…. Most damned souls attain that condition without committing any blatantly evil act, but by slowly losing sight of what is good, and allowing their self-interest to take over.” (C.S.Lewis)
“I do not believe it to be wise to further add to the ‘indoctrination’ by supporting foreign propaganda and branding it as ‘Free Speech’. It is, in fact, weaponized speech.”
Compared to the propaganda that is coming out of our government, our media, and our social media, foreign media sources are often the only way to estimate what might be really going on. TheDuran is foreign media. RT is foreign media. ModRussia report is definitely foreign media. The Cradle is foreign media. Moon of Alabama is foreign media, but I have found all of them offer a lot more insight on what is going on in the world than The Washington Post, The New York Times, Politico or even Fox News. The press is not free when it is bought by multinational corporations and the more sources we have for news, the less likely we are to be duped by our own country’s propaganda.
I have also found such media insightful…and I do not take any issue with such. However, ‘intentional propaganda’ aimed to seduce, mislead, indoctrinate is a totally different animal than simple ‘foreign media’.
Jude, I understand what you are posting, but IF we had America as the Founders intended, bad ideas, bad ideology etc. would be ‘allowed’ in the “free marketplace of ideas” where they would be debated and lose the debate to better ideas or ideologies.
That concept applies, whether the ideas are homegrown or imported.
We DO NOT HAVE the America as our Founders intended, and do NOT have a “free marketplace of ideas” what we have is Institutional Capture.
The argument you make is VERY similar to the arguments made by the cancellers.
“Well yes we want “Free speech” except for THIS speech, and THESE ideas, because they are just too toxic!”
Free speech is free speech.
ANY attempt to restrict it, is censorship, and that means SOME people deciding what EVERYONE gets to hear, and going down that road, is what got us to where we are.
As for public schools not teaching Am. Values, I agree. Most students, as a result do NOT believe in free speech, and believe the govt. SHOULD censor “hate speech”.
We need more speech, not more restrictions ON speech.
I love ‘Free Speech, dutchman. But when it comes to destructive and manipulative attacks from our known to be enemies, they do not have our protected Am. rights to spread their lies in our Country. They do not abide by our Constitution and they have one goal in mind: to destroy our children. In some ways, they are succeeding.

Yeah, I caught that, too. Hostile foreign governments don’t have an unlimited right to propagandize us. However, our own government is foreign and hostile and lies through its teeth daily. Their Agit-Prop is worse than anybody’s.
Take Ukraine, for example. Russia has been much more accurate than our Dictatorship.
Der NippleFuhrer: “I’m going to blow up NordStream.” BOOM! “It wasn’t me!”
We have no choice but to hear out other opinions; our own government is filled with black-hearted Professional Liars, not to mention their One-Party Press.
Frederick Douglass:
“Liberty is meaningless where the right to utter one’s thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants. It is the right which they first of all strike down. They know its power. Thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers, founded in injustice and wrong, are sure to tremble, if men are allowed to reason… Equally clear is the right to hear. To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the rights of the hearer as well as those of the speaker.”
Jack Kennedy:
“If this nation is to be wise as well as strong, if we are to achieve our destiny, then we need more new ideas for more wise men reading more good books in more public libraries. These libraries should be open to all—except the censor. We must know all the facts and hear all the alternatives and listen to all the criticisms. Let us welcome controversial books and controversial authors. For the Bill of Rights is the guardian of our security as well as our liberty.”
“We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.” …….
Proverbs 24:19-20
Do not fret because of evil men,
nor be envious of the wicked;
for there will be no reward to the evil man;
the candle of the wicked will be put out.
Amen!
Most definitely our own gov has used Propaganda on everyone, including its own citizens. We experienced that on steroids regarding the toxic jab. We all have enough difficulty sorting through the lies and manipulation to find even an element of Truth, if even that exists in their spin. We have enough to sort through here at home. We certainly don’t need the extra propaganda from foreign entities bombarding us…especially the children. Children still trust and believe ‘Adults’. They haven’t yet learned that they need a degree of skepticism in order to survive. It is for this reason, that age of innocence, that they must be protected by the adults in the room from the seductive lies and manipulation. Instead, ‘adults’ are telling little boys that they can be girls and visa-versa. The Suicide rates for young people has skyrocketed because of these foreign entities on line feeding their innocent souls with destructive ‘death lies’. We mustn’t allow the evil ones to continue to spread their destructive propaganda all in the name of ‘Free Speech’. Think of the children.
It is not foreign entities that are telling little boys they can be girls, it is our own leaders.
And the censoring, cancelling and silencing of anyone who challenges such nonsense, is the problem.
Bad ideas, when they are not challenged and tested in the fires if debate with competing ideas, can seem like good ideas.
And, just because babies might choke on steak (and so shouldn’t be allowed to eat them) doesn’t mean I should be denied a ribeye.
What bothers me is the monetization of health care. And these clinics doing sex change operations and or puberty blockers on children and adolescents.
Well, they don’t want us eating meat.
I will take that filet, medium rare…
Here is an interesting article regarding decisions made by the Supreme Court on the topic of Free Speech:
https://constitutioncenter.org/blog/schenck-v-united-states-defining-the-limits-of-free-speech
We need to separate the topic of Free Speech for Americans in our own country from giving license to malicious speech and propaganda from a country that is our enemy. It is literally killing our children. We must decide which is more important…. giving freedom to our enemy to rape the minds of our own children which is killing them ..or.. protecting our children. Even our enemy forbids their malicious propaganda in their own country, but takes advantage of our Free Speech Liberty to destroy our children.
Think of it this way… a thief walks into your home with the intent to rape and kill your child…do you just stand there and in the ‘name of love and free speech’ allow them to follow through on their intent? I don’t think you would, dutchman.
1 Peter 2:16 Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.
I suggest that our enemy is using OUR Free speech as a cover-up for THEIR evil. The topic here is TikTok..a program designed by our enemy with one goal…to destroy the innocent and vulnerable minds of our children. Are we going to hand over our Free Speech Liberty to our enemy to use it against us? Are we going to hand them our Liberty to use as a weapon against our children? To me, it is similar to handing over 80+ Billion in weapons in Afghanistan to our enemies…only worse…because our children have died as the adults in the room stood by and defended our enemy’s right to OUR Constitutional protection.
Here is an article on a biblical perspective of ‘Free Speech’: https://www.compellingtruth.org/freedom-of-speech.html
Dr. Malone has well expounded on this ‘5th-Gen Warfare’: https://rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/5th-gen-warfare-terms-and-tactics?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=583200&post_id=93907977&isFreemail=true&utm_medium=email
Well written, well said.
“For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.” …….”
The Jack Kennedy quote is thought provoking…esp about trusting the American people…”foreign” ideas and “alien” philosophies…
Our country and free rational thought has been co-opted…
Foreign ideas and alien philosophies continue to come across the border.
“They” our ‘betters” don’t trust us. And we normal people, don’t trust them.
“When the teachers in many of our schools at all levels do not teach Am. goals, but those of socialism”… and they want more money!! How does that conform to their “Socialism” dogma?
Yes…suddenly they jump lines and are Capitalists when it involves lining their own pockets.
You are so right!
Matt’s leftism still rears it’s ugly head when it concerns Donald trump.
I agree and think he himself is a hypocrit by the mere fact that he’s still a democrat.
Well, like they say, even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile. I think that’s the case here.
That’s true. I found a video of a good interview with him. He is speaking his mind about objective journalism in this clip. He does take a jab at Trump at the end.
But, that’s okay. I’ve followed him for years and I like his unique style.
Taking a jab at President Trump….is not OK!!
It’s OK to speak freely in God’s free nation.
I think PDJT can “take it”.
Same with Joe Rogan, many of these libertarian liberals that are just beginning to red-pill, will have the hardest time red-pilling on PDJT.
They ARE starting to wake up on COVID, and censorship. I’ll take what I can get, and pray for more enlightenment. They have a very deep hole to climb out of.
I agree with you.
Afterall, we have a country to save
and do not need all the negativity
from people who are just sayin it to get attention
there are too many of those
A leopard does not (usually) change its spots.
Macron & Co. are doubling down. Olympics tourist safety my ass, they’re going to improve their identity harvesting ability because of current citizen pushback.
From Reuters………
“France’s National Assembly on Thursday approved the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) video surveillance during the 2024 Paris Olympics, overlooking warnings from civil rights groups that the technology posed a threat to civil liberties.
The government says algorithmic video surveillance can detect “pre-determined events”, abnormal behaviour and crowd surges, helping ensure the safety of millions of tourists who are expected to flood the French capital next summer.”
Between cell phones transmitting identity and GPS coordinates and cameras with facial recognition, anonymous public assembly will essentially be outlawed.
$20 solution…
I tried those but they presented a problem when I stepped up to the urinal. 🙂
Maybe I’ll try some knee highs.
made me LAUGH…
BROADWAY JOE Liked Hanes
Uhhhh… supposed to go over yer head, mate…
Supposedly, advanced facial recognition can see right thru masks, with thermal cameras.
So, the obvious way to thwart it, is to line your mask with aluminum aka “tin” foil.
Do you see the IRONY here? Ya just gotta laugh!
I think he was joking.
We have to allow this analysis for “pre-crime arrests.” We are rushing into the movie “Minority Report.” You ARE going to commit murder so we have to arrest you to stop it.
“abnormal behaviour”
One can only imagine the possibilities.
World Governments are gearing up with AI, and the average Joe and Mary Blow have no available affective countermeasures… this will be 1984 on Steroids with a Turbo Shot.
An underground network of “AI Guerrilla Hackers”… akin to today’s “Anonymous”, except with an actual legitimate , moral purpose… will be the only option. It’s going to be something out of a movie…
All of those fancy systems have common points of failure aside from networking, like electricity.
To say nothing of “gait analses”. They say they can determine an incredible amount of info from HOW you walk, including INTENT.
Body language, like facial expressions communicates much unconsciously.
My question to anyone thinking of going would be, is it really worth it?
WHY are we SO stupid as to allow TikTok to operate in the United States? S T U P I D !!!!
The ongoing question: Stupid…or…intentional?
Would say intentional.
It wasn’t until President Trump was in office before they made the effort to remove access to the app on all of the government networks and devices.
Much of a similar issue with Hauwei having access to our telecom backbones with their 5g devices and networking equipment.
That’s one issue I do have with Pres. Trump…he was pushing 5G, specifically for rural areas. I still support Pres. Trump, but he’s not perfect on every issue.
My understanding is that 5G in rural areas IS a scam.
Won’t “speed up” my service, it will just speed up my data being harvested.
Bigger road, but while MY lans doesn’t get any wider, the opposite traffic lane is expanded by 4 lanes!
Anyway, the internet out here in rural America is just like in the city; it’s the “throttling” that all the cellphone companies do, after you use “x” amount if data in a month, even with the so-called “unlimited” plans, and I doubt 5G is going to change that.
I agree, it is most definitely a scam. It won’t ‘speed up’ service in my area since I don’t even get service in my area. However, it will uptick the cancer and the spying. It is why I do not understand Pres. Trump pushing for it.
Comcast is pushing 10G
Great…more cancer opportunities.
So, what now? Is TikTok good because Twitter is bad?
This whole thing looks like another “threat to national security which justifies taking away more constitutional rights”.
9/11 > Patriot Act etc.
TikTok > RESTRICT Act.
https://centipedenation.com/first-column/the-restrict-act-a-uniparty-bill-introduced-in-the-senate-could-be-another-patriot-act/
The hypocrisy? A minor aspect being played up to distract from the major totalitarian power grab being attempted.
Don’t get distracted.
Tik-Tok? Okay.
But it seems like a weird priority.
China installed a Colonial Governor in the White House after assisting the Deep State in overthrowing the Actual President.
Obama gave them every personnel file the federal government owned.
Half of Washington is on their payroll. Maybe more.
We let them work in all of our weapons labs. Universities, too.
We build and unleash Bio-Weapons with them.
We protect their Fentanyl Routes from the Oval Office.
Our Occupation Government conspires with their Occupation Government to oppress both Peoples.
But Tik-Tok is the problem?
This guy doesn’t appreciate your dismissive tone…
Yes, TikTok is still a problem. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
1965..Paul Harvey: ‘If I were the devil’:
“NY DA Bragg likely hid exculpatory evidence from the Trump Grand Jury as their meetings have been postponed,” said political influencer Ryan Cunningham, adding “The real question is has @JamesOKeefeIII got to someone on the inside?”
To which O’Keefe replied “The real question is how many do we have on the inside? Stay tuned.”
Trump is being investigated by the Manhattan DA over a payment made to former adult film star Stormy Daniels (real name Stephanie Clifford).
O’Keefe founded Project Veritas in 2010. He departed the group in February after the board of directors suspended him amid an investigation into alleged financial malfeasance. His new project is called O’Keefe Media Group, or OMG.
O’Keefe said that the new group has been sending cameras out, “which means the OMG army of exposers will soon be holding those in power accountable.”

Ms. Bartiromo is the best!
Best what?
“Tik Tak”? Come on Maria.
Lets give credit to where its due. If Musk hadnt shined the light of truth on the twitter corporate emails, and then inviting Matt to write the story, most people would have been clueless about the govt hijacking and censoring of social media. And kudos to SD for sounding the alarm about twitter, and the other socials, well before any of this was exposed.
Too bad no one will be held accountable over this.
Musk “gave us the receipts” and that IS valuable.
He confirmed what we already had surmised, and we now have the details of how it took place.
As for anyone being held accountable,…patience grasshopper,…patience.
Only under the judgement of Christ.
Dr. Malone…5th-Gen Warfare Terms and Tactics:https://rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/5th-gen-warfare-terms-and-tactics?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=583200&post_id=93907977&isFreemail=true&utm_medium=email
Yep. If social media has to be run by a government that hates you, your freedoms and your civilization, far better that government be a foreign government that doesn’t have power over you than a domestic government that does.
Sorry, I tried and couldn’t get through it, cannot stand Maria, and Matt lost me. I thought he would have been better to watch, which is why I willing to suffer through Maria.
Same, a “reporter” asking someone how they feel about something is not journalism. “Just give me the facts Mam.”
Did Mt Taibbi say he wasn’t a lefty anymore?
No, the “reversal” hasn’t taken place yet. That will happen only if and when Republicans decide that they can actually prosecute and imprison top tier Democrats for their crimes and enemy collusion. As things stand today, it’s all still just talk and “strongly worded letters”. Uniparty rules still override the “reversal” Tiabbi sees. If the GOP was truly for Free Speech, the J6 political prisoners would never have been imprisoned at all, and the heinous 2020 election steal would have been quickly overturned.
I am not 100% certain that you are a woman. How can I be 100% certain of anything!
I like Maria. She’s been somewhat muzzled by Fox’s powers that be, yet she’s one of the few who still defends Trump. NY Post has gone completely anti-Trump with ridiculous headlines about him and front covers. I pray for Sundance every day.
Matt still is a lefty. Nothing has changed about his politics whatsoever. Same with greenwald. The change has been a certain segment of the left moving into radical territory along with the deep state and media.
I appreciate Matt Taibbi and what he has done to expose Twitter’s coordination with government to prohibit free speech. That being said, this entire video segment is gaslighting to the nth degree. Just because China does not have an ownership stake in US media companies doesn’t mean it’s not influencing them.
https://www.wionews.com/world/us-media-outlets-received-millions-of-dollars-from-china-to-sell-its-propaganda-report-396678
so, if Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google, Apple, etc. grant DOJ/FBI officials identical access to user data as Tiktok does to the CCP, it seems that at least Apple may be granting access to iPhone & iPad user data to CCP since Apple has big business in China.
Thank you Sundance for pointing out the Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google, Apple, etc. and DOJ/FBI connections.
Why did Maria keep saying Tick Tack?
Didn’t know Bartiromo was a member of the Council. Always learn something from you, Sundance. Thanks again.
Matt may have thought when he was younger that the Democratic Party stood for the principles of the American Constitution but that hasn’t been the case for a long time. Most Americans today are not aware that the first Progressive presidents were Republicans – Teddy Roosevelt and William Howard Taft. Woodrow Wilson commented that his ideas of government(Progressive) were no different from that of the Socialists it was just which name would win out: Progressive Politics or Socialist Politics. America’s elitists have been destroying our nation from the inside for more than 100 years. No man is going to save this nation. The only power that can do that is God. Read Jeremiah 17:5-6. These verses of Scripture tell us what we can expect if we put our trust in man.
It’s not just the Democrats stifling free speech.
Mrs. Bartiromo is a graduate of the WEF school for Young Global Leaders. Seems like she would be more at home on CNN than Fox.
Little by little the pendulum is swinging back to the American side of things, this includes all people of goodwill where politics does not have to be a reason to hate your neighbor.
The swamp has ripped into the fabric of the USA keeping us in a state of outrage all sold by the enemy MSM now on a 24/7 365 days a year rotation as “Breaking News!”
Our common enemy is the uniparty and this is beginning to become apparent even in the left where they understand without the 1st Amendment we are doomed and this includes the entire Constitution and Bill of Rights.
More please, be a free American reporter and just tell the truth. Defend the Constitution and it will defend you as will the American people.
Right on!
Watched programing with ads on Amazon last night. All ads were either for pharmaceuticals or extolling the virtues of TikTok. Folks run businesses and teach classes via TikTok, or so the ads say.
Curiosity has left most of journalism. Thankfully, there are a few still around who are interested in how things work, who is involved and what impact it has.
Who, what, where, when and why still matter in obtaining truth. And always will.
Tucka is no longer pushing J6 videos and now Maria is compromised to keep her ‘job’. Sad.
Now you know about Fox and bless Taibbi et al.
Taibbi is one of the very few honest reporters working today. Along with Taibbi, people like Sundance, Sherryl Atkinson and Glenn Greenwald must work for themselves without any certain financial support. Despite their lack of resources, independent journalists have become our only source of verifiable reporting. I do my best to buy subscriptions or make donations.
Great interview on Taibbi’s part. I agree the ‘Money Honey” tries to pretend she’s not part of the problem.
Maria lost my respect many years ago. She’s just one of the paid actors that is able to better hide her true opinions. I haven’t watched any Fox stuff at all since about 2015.
I quit watching after the Presidential debate that Fox sic’d Megyn and Bret Baier on Trump. I started watching OAN back then and now just hand pick my news from a few sites including this one.
Our government currently propagandizes US citizenry as well as the Chinese Communist Party does to Chinese people.
