omg... ted cruz BLASTS Trump -- Jimmy Kimmel | Charlie Kirk

and saying it's absolutely dangerous uh

for the government to determine which

speech is okay and which is not.

>> What's your reaction to techn

is an incredible American patriot with

courage. You know it used to be I

remember in the old days that Trump

doesn't answer would have to get

licensed rellicensed and it was always a

big deal you know they had to show

honesty and integrity. Uh, when you have

a network, again, I'll use the same

numbers, whether it's 90 or 94 or 97,

all different numbers, but when you have

networks that give somebody 97% bad

publicity or 94% bad publicity,

>> Trump punts uh

>> Trump totally punch punts talking about

what Ted Cruz said because Ted Cruz just

came out with the truth. Now, this is

interesting. Ted Cruz slamming the FCC

for threatening

ABC and Disney thereby

for not taking action against Kimmel,

which of course then they did. Ted Cruz,

obviously a Republican, uh slamming the

FCC. Let's let's listen to see what he

says. Kim will be fired. Um I think you

know you could certainly see a path

forward for uh suspension over this. And

again, you know, the FCC is going to

have remedies that we could look at. Um,

and again, you know, we may ultimately

be called to be a judge on that.

>> No, that's a quote from the FCC that

they just played. Let's now listen to

the reaction of theirs.

>> No, no, no, no. Look, look, I like

Brendan Carr. He's a good guy. He's the

chairman of the FCC. I work closely with

him. But what he said there is dangerous

as hell.

>> Yes. uh

>> for hold on for people that are

listening cuz this is going to be quote

controversial. So I want to make sure we

explain it clearly

>> when you say no and it's dangerous

explain and and and run this out the

slippery slope that this can open so

that people understand why we're saying

it.

>> So the Federal Communication Commission

I is in charge of granting broadcast

licenses. So ABC, NBC, CBS, they have

licenses from the FCC. It is true that

under statute they are required to be in

the public interest.

>> What he is saying is Jimmy Kimmel was

lying. That's true. He was lying and his

lying

>> I I obviously dispute that. We made a

whole video disputing that it was a lie.

Not to side with Jimmy Kimmel. He made

insensitive comments about Charlie Kirk.

Charlie Kirk at a at at a terrible time.

So bad timing and insensitive comments.

And it was stupid what Kimmel did. But

he didn't lie. Now, I encourage you and

implore you to watch my breakdown of why

I say this because I think people who

don't watch my full breakdown of why I

say that don't get it. Uh, and what we

did is we did a logical and fallacy and

fact-based breakdown of what Kimmel

said. Now, I encourage you to watch the

whole thing, but I'll give you a very

quick sneak preview. Kimmel said,

long story short, people spent the

weekend claiming that Robinson was

anything other than one of them.

Desperately so, right? All the

amplifiers and modifications of that,

all that doesn't really matter. What

matters is the crux of the argument is

spent the weekend claiming that he is

anything other than one of them, which

means he's basically saying he's not

MAGA. But you have to remember calling

somebody not MAGA does not equal calling

them MAGA. The opinion that comes out of

this is well he was implying that

they're MAGA. No, that assumes there are

only two options. That's like saying

you know Donald Trump spent the whole

weekend claiming he's not white. And

then somebody going ah our fearless

black leader. Wait, no. There are more

choices. This is what's called the

logical fallacy of a false dilemma,

which is an eitheror fallacy.

And it's the fallacy of it's either this

or that. No, you don't have to be if if

somebody is cheering that somebody is

not MAGA. It could be that they're

deranged. It could be that they're a

Zionist or they're part of the Nazi

party or they're part of some other

party. that that doesn't make them MAGA

just because, you know, somebody was

arguing that they're not MAGA. So, I

don't think there was a lie there and

you could watch my full video breaking

that down, but we we'll keep going to

see what Ted Cruz says because what Carr

does is very bad for free speech in

America and for capitalism in America to

the American people is not in the public

interest. And so, he threatens

explicitly,

we're going to cancel ABC's license.

We're going to take him off the air so

ABC cannot broadcast anymore.

>> Yes. Yes.

>> And and I got to say he he he he

threatens it. He says we can do this the

easy way, but we can do this the hard

way.

>> Yeah.

>> And and I got to say that's right out of

Good Fellows. That that that that's

right out of a mafiosa coming into a bar

going, "Nice bar you have here. It'd be

a shame if something happened to it."

And and I got to say, look, I

understand. Jimmy Kimmel has mocked me

so many times I cannot count. the the

corporate media, they are dishonest.

They are liars. I hate what Jimmy Kimmel

said. I am thrilled that he was fired.

>> But let me tell you, if the government

gets in the business of saying

>> what you, the media, have said, we're

going to ban you from the airwaves if

you don't say what we like. That will

end up bad for conservatives. It reminds

me of you and I are both fans of the

Lord of the Rings.

>> Yeah.

>> JR Tolken. It reminds me of like the

ring of power and and it is so

attractive. It's sort of like

conservatives are saying, "Wait, wait.

If we have government, we have power. We

can ban the media. Let me tell you what

will happen going down this road. There

will come a time when a Democrat wins

again."

>> Yep. Exactly. That's exactly what we

talked about in my video this morning.

We literally broke this down in my full

33minute detailed video on why what

Jimmy said was disgusting and he's a

dumbass and we could hate him for it. I

did also break down why it's not a lie.

Now Ted Cruz doesn't do that here

because if you're aligned with the

right, you have to say it was a lie. Now

people are like, "What did you imagine?

It wasn't a lie." Okay, just to to say

that, you know, they spent the weekend

arguing that he's not MAGA. Of course,

because that boosts up the MAGA party.

It unites the party to get more votes

for midterm. That's not a lie. That's

exactly what that's literally what

everybody did after the Charlie Kirk

shooting. Oh my gosh, this is so

terrible. We have to come together. We

need to we need to grow the party. We

need to donate more to political

campaigns and to security and we need to

grow uh the power of the MAGA movement

more. This won't stop the MAGA movement.

That's that's literally what everybody

did. So Jimmy stated a fact. Does yes,

he was not MAGA. Correct. Nobody ever

implied this guy was MAGA. You know, all

weekend long it's he's trans and mental

and a psycho, radical leftist. Like

that's all we heard all weekend long. So

Jimmy was right to make that

observation.

>> Wins the White House.

>> They will get rid of,

>> right? But the next politicians, if the

SEC, the FCC is allowed to make these

threats where they say, "Hey, we could

do this the easy way or the hard way,

you know, we might have to rule on

this."

And then all of a sudden, Bob Iger hears

about this. And the staff at Disney are

like, "Do we really want to risk this

for our shareholders? Do we really want

to be in a fight with the FCC when we

have six plus billion dollar merger and

acquisition deals pending that require

FCC approval? Nah. So you fire them.

That's wrong.

That's a conservative. They'll get rid

of every podcast. They'll get rid of

every silence us. They will use this

power and they will use it ruthlessly.

>> Yes.

>> And that is dangerous. And by the way,

in the Biden administration,

they tried to go after and revoke Fox's

license because they didn't like and

they say correct. And the same thing is

the kind of censorship that you saw with

Meta and and uh Twitter before it was X.

It's all the same. And it was all driven

by

the leftleaning

folks in power then. Everything they say

on Fox is hate speech. I'm sure they say

everything you and I say is hate speech.

It's misinformation. They've defined

anything counter to the leftist

narrative as misinformation. Now, we

just talked about Jimmy Kimmel was

lying. But you know what? It's it's

interesting. Brendan said, "Well, gosh,

they they slandered they slandered

Charlie Kirk and his family." You know

what? If they slandered him, there's

already a remedy. There's a remedy of

defamation. ABC could be sued. And by

the way, you get a defamation lawsuit,

you could pay millions of dollars. Let

that process play out. I think it is

unbelievably dangerous

>> for government to put itself in the

position of saying, "We're going to

decide what speech we like and what we

don't, and we're going to threaten to

take you off air if we don't like what

you're saying." And it might feel good

right now to threaten Jimmy Kimmel.

>> Yeah.

>> But when it is used to silence every

conservative in America, we will regret

it. And and and so again, I like Brennan

Carr, but we should not be in this

business. We should denounce it. It's

fine to say what Jimmy Kimmel said was

deplorable. It was disgraceful, and he

should be off air, but we shouldn't be

threatening government power to force

him off air. That's a real mistake.

>> Ted Cruz, absolutely amazing. Double

take. Like I say, my goal is if

everybody hates me, it means I'm always

focused on the truth because I'm not a

tribalist. I poop on Biden. I poop on

Trump. I poop on like this morning, you

know, I used to poop on that mirin guy,

Steve Mirren or whatever, the the new

Fed guy that, you know, Trump shilled

into there. He's actually good. He's

better than I thought, you know, and so

I'll change my opinion if different

facts and data and commentary come out.

But this Ted Cruz comment was a win. It

is a 100% in alignment with what I said

about the danger of the FCC this morning

in a 33minute video where I broke all of

this down in detail with the clips and

the recordings. This corroborates

exactly what I warned about this

morning, saying this is very dangerous

for our first amendment rights to free

speech because it's not about now. It's

about what happens in the future. Good

job.

>> Knows about this.

>> We'll we'll try a little advertising and

see how it goes. Congratulations, man.

You have done so much. People love you.

People look up to you.

>> Kevin Papra there, financial analyst and

YouTuber. Meet Kevin. Always great to

get your take.
