Trump *THREATENS* BANNING Media, DEMANDS Killing Bill NOW | Press Act & Censorship

well Donald Trump is back to freaking

out about the mainstream media and now

he's demanding the killing of the press

act in case you don't know what that is

I'll give you a quick primer basically

it is a bill that has already been

passed by the house which is interesting

because the house is Republican

controlled and it's now pending the

Senate's passing which is controlled 51

to 49 by democrats Donald Trump wants

this bill to be killed the Press Act is

known as the protect reporters from

exploitive estate spying act Yeah so

basically when a journalist conducts an

investigation or a whistleblower leaks

them information or somebody working at

a company leaks something to a

journalist journalists are often

provided what's known as a journalistic

protection those are enshrined in law in

about 49 different states and they

protect journalists from a whole host of

their sources being revealed even in

court cases and the idea is that

journalists are supposed to be able to

use that protection to let people trust

the journalist that the journalist will

keep that person's identity secret so

let's say you were working for Bernie

maid off and you're like man I wish I

could get this out that Bernie maid off

is a Ponzi and this is all a scam what

do I do well you could call the New York

Times basically and go yo Sky of Ponzi

CES some evidence please don't tell

anyone about this because Bernie's going

to have me killed well Donald Trump does

not like that protection Donald Trump

wants to make sure that protection is

removed because he does not like that

journalists can leak information and

then have their sources protected

because he calls the mainstream media

fake news disinformation propaganda

agency and frankly that's potentially at

least in his opinion more aligned with

the left and the right but it's also not

just his opinion consider this 70% of

Americans if you go back 50 years 70% of

Americans per Gallop polls on a survey

they did right before the election used

to trust the media great or fair deal

well I guess that survey goes back 50

years that goes back 50 years 70% used

to trust the media a quote great or Fair

Deal that is now down to just

31% of Republicans actually trust the

mainstream media a great or Fair Deal oh

I'm sorry I misread that for all

Americans that is just down to

31% so in other words you've more than

haved the level of trust in the

mainstream media but what I actually

wrote here is amongst Republicans you're

down to

12% trust at a fair or great deal so

even fair do you trust the mainstream

media a fair deal 88% of Republicans say

no and only about half of Democrats 54%

say yes so huge political divide here

and a lot of people think the mainstream

media in part because of what we've seen

with Donald Trump's attack on the

mainstream media since 2016 many cases

rightfully so the media's come after him

like crazy uh because honestly anything

having to do with Trump gets a whole lot

of clicks and attention whether it's

true or not and so Donald Trump is now

uh freaking out over this particular

bill because he actually wants to go

after the people that in his mind did

him wrong listen to this truth social

post I don't know about you but I'm not

going to forgive over eight years of

Russia hoaxes spying by ex-presidents

two fake impeachments a lab created

pandemic forced lockdowns forced

vaccines law fair election fraud police

political prisoners Ashley babbit a

weaponized two-tier justice system open

borders a war on oil continuously

funding proxy wars and censorship not in

a million years your judgment day is

coming this is a pretty big threat and

obviously not all of that has to do with

media Independence but Donald Trump has

made it clear by also posting on Truth

quote Republicans must kill this bill

and so let's analyze for a moment sort

of the pros and cons of this bill uh a

few things to note before that there are

now memes circulating that Elon Musk

might end up buying

MSNBC I I never put anything past these

things from actually happening anymore

because it seems like the most ironic

things just keep happening over and over

again but anyway Elon Musk potentially

buying MSNBC and then kicking out some

of the hosts that they don't like and

replacing them potentially with Joe

Rogan maybe giving Joe Ro Rogan a prime

time slot on MSNBC honestly be kind of

cool Donald Trump has also some

additional background here has also

talked about weaponizing the Federal

Communications Commission and

potentially revoking media licenses from

companies like CBS NBC ABC and even Fox

Pro the financial times so there's a lot

here so let's look at sort of pros and

cons of this this press act for a moment

first of all 49 states already have laws

protecting or shielding journalists for

things like this

the problem is they don't apply

uniformly across all the states and they

don't protect you from federal subpoenas

from like the Department of Justice or

the FBI which some believe would be bad

because it would give the federal

government the power to basically spy on

journalists or subena records or

potentially I mean practically speaking

Donald Trump being like yo find out who

leaked this and then sort of getting to

the bottom of it using the courts as

sort of his tool if you will that would

be possible if you kill the Press act or

if it doesn't pass for whatever reason I

suspect it will pass you would need it

to happen during the lame duck session

here so Democrats need to pass it they

have the votes to do it and then Biden

would need to sign it Republicans

already gave up their opportunity to say

no on it uh that's because the house

already passed it now we'll see it's

possible that if the Senate makes any

changes to it it could get pushed back

to the house for approval for Amendment

approvals and then they could just sit

on it and sandbag because as soon as

Trump tells the house or the Senate to

do a certain thing they kind of seem to

do it because they also want to get

reelected and they realize the power of

supporting Trump and how bad of an idea

it is not to support Trump anyway uh

consider for a moment like out of I

think it was the 10 uh reps who voted to

impeach Donald Trump I think eight or

nine of them at least eight of them have

lost their job since then so there's

huge power in in having Trump on side if

you're a republican uh anyway so uh the

issue again is that the Press act would

basically extend these state laws to all

states but then it would also give you

protection against Federal subpoenas doj

subpoenas FBI subpoenas uh it's

basically considered a shield against

government overreach or the government

from spying on a journalist uh but there

are some critics to this and and this is

where some of Donald Trump's povs come

from as well now I want to touch on that

but I quickly want to apologize uh

yesterday on the roboh Haack website we

still have this problem at the moment we

had a little oopsy doopsy uh where

basically DocuSign locked our account

because too many people signed up or

were trying to sign up for roboh Haack

uh and it broke our account so we're

we're working on fixing that if you want

you could email us at uh invest at roboh

hack. and we will gladly send you the

corrected link just if you can let us

know if you're looking for a link for a

single signer dual signer uh or entity

signer but I just personally wanted to

apologize for that uh I hope to have

these links fixed today you could see

those on screen here you can even toggle

dark mode which I think is kind of cool

but anyway what is Robo Haack you can

see it here it's the Venture Capital

these buttons are broken right now sorry

about that we're getting them fixed with

DocuSign it's just docy sign's customer

service isn't that great I apologize

oliz for that I just anyway I wanted to

acknowledge this so yes email us uh the

emails right there invest roboh hack.

ask you know hey I need the correct link

for entity individual or couple and

we'll get that uh we'll get that over to

you anyway thank you for your faith but

also sorry so now let's keep going back

to what Donald Trump's talking about so

why is Donald Trump freaking out about

wanting this dead uh well mostly because

a lot of people think he's going to use

this is an opportunity to to go after

his journalists or the journalist

enemies that he has and people who say

bad things about the Trump organization

or otherwise however if you to go to

more of a sort of Centrist approach on

this as to why it could be bad to have

these protections uh the protections

would potentially allow journalists who

have an agenda to conceal the identity

of people who are lying or defaming

companies or providing false information

misinformation or disinformation see

theoretically if somebody works for

let's say the Trump organization and

then they fabricate on a letterhead you

know an invoice that's like you know um

Donald Trump's hookers you know 69

hookers for Donald Trump and it's on the

Trump letterhead the person works for uh

Trump or whatever and then they send

that to the New York Times the New York

Times is like oh well that person

actually works there and we're talking

to them face to face okay this seems

credible this seems legitimate they're a

bookkeeper for Trump or whatever oh man

and then when they write the story it

turns into you know uh per documents

reviewed by the New York Times uh

provided by uh you know someone within

the organization who spoke to us on a

condition of anonymity for fear of

Retribution against Donald Trump uh

provided these statements which which we

verified as credible given that the

person works there you know something

like that right so so then they write

the whole story about it now obviously

there's I mean you would hope there's

there's some more due diligence than

that because again it could just be all

be fabricated you know what if the

person has a vendetta against Trump but

then again if a paper has a vendetta

against Trump they might run with it

anyway because they have a personal

Vendetta so so now the person with the

disinfo is shielded and the paper is

shielded from liability so you

potentially have this collusion between

a disinfo Insider and a media Outlet who

both have an agenda of being anti- a

particular candidate and then they could

shape narratives the way they want and

then they're legally protected from

defamation lawsuits in such a case now

that's an example of the abuse which

definitely calls into you know question

the Integrity of of you know our media

system now on the flip side you would

hope that an honest media I know I'm

saying those words an honest media would

not do that and wouldn't air stories

like that or wouldn't have bias uh you

would hope and then if let's say Trump

sued them for disinfo that they would

still be able operate because they're

not getting sued for a billion dollars

because they're just trying to do their

best and provide you know information

and perspective for people to review and

then you know thanks to journalistic

protections they would then be able to

limit their time in court and spend more

time in journalism the problem is really

over the last 10 years and I experienced

this myself as well every single media

outlet has massive biases uh some

substantially less uh some substantially

more like for example I consider uh The

Economist pretty freaking left leaning

but I also consider their facts to be

very high uh then I look at something

like uh the Associated Press and I

consider them mostly neutral and also

highly factual although I know that

there could be oopsy dupsies and then I

look at like the LA Times especially

their editorial board and I think of you

know what they did to me during the

campaign uh and I think of them as the

biggest scum Li lying scumbags ever you

know the same could be said about uh the

New York Times that wrote about me or

certain Sacramento papers the Ventura

County a lot of these were very aligned

with Gavin nusum uh and I'm like wow you

you don't want to air critical

commentary of your Governor because

you're worried about getting kicked out

of the governor Circle which is also an

interesting bias because then it goes in

the opposite direction right somebody

who wants to compete against an existing

power like gome can't because if

somebody fa covers a competitor then

what happens is that Governor goes

you're not invited to my press

conference anymore VC star whereas oh

you bagged on my competitor here you

come front row you know like that's the

kind of rigging that goes on all of the

time uh and I've also seen straight up

lying from companies like CNN where

they're like you know there are no

competitors against gome and I'm like

bro I was you know up in the polls got

like a million votes one San Francisco

what is this so there's also blatant

lying that happens in media so you know

my faith in media has has collapsed

though I I think it's uh um you know I

still try my best to review to find fact

and then corroborate as much as I can

but I tell you it's gotten harder and

and frankly it's gotten exhausting so

anyway uh this gives you a little bit of

an idea of what's going on with Donald

Trump again apologies on the roboh hack.

a website we're going to hopefully get

that fixed within you know today I am

out on vacation with the so so good luck
