Joel Gilbert discusses his new 90-minute documentary, "Roseanne Barr is America," which premieres June 9th at the National Press Club. The film covers Barr's life from her upbringing in Salt Lake City to her "cancellation" over a tweet about Valerie Jarrett. Gilbert argues that Barr was "patient zero" for a cancel culture that targets Trump supporters and stifles comedic creativity.

Dr. Steven Greer detailed his decades-long effort to brief U.S. officials on the "decapitation" of the constitutional government regarding Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs). Since his initial briefings for the Clinton administration in 1993, Greer has gathered over 760 whistleblowers from military and intelligence backgrounds. He argues that illegal black projects have operated without presidential or congressional oversight for over 70 years.

Axios co-founders Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen criticize the rise of citizen journalism, specifically targeting Elon Musk's assertion that "you are the media." During a National Press Club event, they argue that professional reporting requires a level of rigor and ethics that social media users lack. Chase Geyser counters this by listing historical media failures, such as reporting on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction and the Russian collusion narrative.
