00:00 While other networks lie to you about what's happening now, InfoWars tells you the truth about what's happening next. Visit InfoWars.com forward slash show and support the InfoWars. It's Monday, September 30th, 2024. Dislike of and anguish over social media is just growing and growing and growing. And as part of our problem, particularly in democracies, in terms of building consensus around any issue. It's really hard to govern today. You can't, you know, there's no, the referees we used to have to determine what's a fact and what isn't a fact have kind of, you know, been eviscerated to a certain degree. The American taxpayers, my constituents that are having a hard time afford their groceries, pay for a car, buy a new home, spend $1.6 quadrillion
01:00 to fix a problem that A, doesn't exist, and as a matter of fact, U, might be exacerbating because it's unknown. It is unknown at this time, the low level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that might actually destroy life. Because plant life all depends, as you know, Secretary, plant life all depends on CO2. And when we kill it, then we're done too. I yield the balance. Congressman, let me just say that I don't agree with what you're saying out there for any number of reasons. I don't have time to go into all of them now, but I'll just tell you point blank that the difference between the periods you're looking at in terms of heat, et cetera, and human input is night and day, number one. Number two, why do you think 195 countries in the world
01:50 They're prime ministers. They're presidents. Because they're grifting like you are, sir. But look, if people go to only one source and the source they go to is sick and has an agenda and they're putting out disinformation, our First Amendment stands as a major block to the ability to be able to just hammer it out of existence. So what we need is to is to win the ground, win the right to govern by hopefully winning enough votes that you're free to be able to implement change. Now obviously there are some people in our country who are prepared to implement change in other ways.
02:34 So you're questioning really if democracy can survive unregulated social media? I think democracies are very challenged right now and have not proven they can move fast enough or big enough to deal with the challenges that we are facing. And to me, that is part of what this race, this election is all about. Will we break the fever in the United States? See, while always ensuring and defending free speech, we must make it clear that it cannot be okay to bully and attack people online.
03:12 Governments, and especially big technology companies, need to safeguard people's data and privacy, and address online harassment and violence to ensure trust in technology. The Socialist Democratic Party just can't help prodding the sleeping giant. The left has made it abundantly clear that they want our president not just impeached, but beheaded. They have pushed that narrative repeatedly. But first, they must decapitate Infowars so that the heads of conservatives will roll. Alex Jones obviously is a well-known conspiracy theorist whose brand is bullying. He launched similar attacks against the families whose six and seven-year-old kids were slaughtered at Sandy Hook.
03:55 And these people are all lawyers, they're very smart. They've defamed me in fake lawsuits they filed, funded by the Democratic Party, knowing they're protected filing false statements under defamation in lawsuits. And then they do it as members of Congress protected with immunity for false statements. In a Slate article, it references a study by Jonathan Albright, director of the Tau Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia, who found 9,000 videos on YouTube with titles that are, and I quote, a mixture of shocking, vile, and promotional themes that include rape game jokes, shock reality, social experiments, celebrity pedophilia, false flag rants, and terror-related conspiracy theories dating back to the Oklahoma City attacks in 1995.
04:36 It makes terror-related conspiracies in with false flags when Gulf of Tonkin and all these other things are declassified to be staged. Anybody has a right to question that when it's a history of it. Doesn't mean we always think it's fake, we have to look at it. Every one of your rights has been compromised by a totalitarian state grown to adulthood under your very nose. But the First Amendment is still holding its ground under a hail of globalist arrows, but it can't withstand the assault forever. We are reaching the critical moment. Stand up, America, and reclaim your rights. John Bowne reporting for InfoWars.com. It's Monday, September 30th, 2024. I come to you from the Embattled Info War Studios in Austin, Texas. We are 35 days, 12 hours, 53 minutes, 32 seconds to the most important election in world history. Thank you, my friends in America and across the world and all the ships at sea for tuning in to this global transmission
