On this episode of SYSTEM UPDATE: The Democratic Congresswoman from New York previously condemned former Tulsi Gabbard's "present" vote as an abdication of the duties of political leadership, arguing that a member of Congress should always vote "yes" or "no." Why does she arrogate to herself the right to do this? And why did she previously vote "present" on $2 billion more in Capitol Police spending?

New evidence on Monday proved what has long been clear: that documents about Joe Biden from the Hunter Biden laptop were authentic. Big Tech censorship in the weeks before the 2020 election of these genuine documents is one of the most severe assaults on free speech and a free election in years. That the corporate media was their key ally by endorsing and spreading a CIA lie -- that these documents were "Russian disinformation" -- makes this episode even more grave.

In newly released video footage from Vogue, the socialist Congresswoman and her boyfriend are attended to as if they are the the Prince and Princess of Wales. Somehow, The Science of COVID permits them to be mask-free indoors while their servants must have their faces covered with cloth.

Over the last year, Democratic Party members of Congress have become increasingly explicit that Silicon Valley giants must either censor the material Democrats dislike or suffer legal and regulatory reprisals. The most recent example is one of the most egregious yet: Senator Elizabeth Warren and Congressman Adam Schiff demanded that Amazon stop promoting books on COVID they find offensive. The consequences -- both political and legal -- are grave.

George Bush was once castigated by liberals as a new Hitler, a war criminal, and a primitive imbecile who stole not one but two elections. Yet they swooned for him on 9/11 because he gave them what they most crave: the view that Al Qaeda is comparable to those who protested at the Capitol on 1/6.

Leading up to Brazil's Independence Day protests, the media narrative from both the Brazilian and international press was largely reductive and alarmist: widespread, coordinated violence was likely as Bolsonaro plots a coup. The realities are far more complex and nuanced, and it is impossible to understand yesterday's tumultuous events in Brazil without understanding that context.

For years, Obama officials, including senior national security adviser Ben Rhodes, spread a blatant lie about Edawrd Snowden: that he "fled to Russia" and chose Moscow as his destination to seek Putin's protection. Yet in Rhodes' own book, he inadvertently proves that he, along with Hillary Clinton and Susan Rice, lied. He admits that it was Rhodes himself who blocked Snowden's attempts to leave Russia on the day he arrived. Watch the graphic evidence proving this lie.

Glenn Greenwald explores the U.S. media's immediate embrace of the Biden administration's false claim that its Afghan drone strike killed no civilians, and contrasts it with the media's polar opposite Trump-era posture of extreme skepticism.

Glenn Greenwald analyzes the reactions to the horrific terror attack in Kabul this morning, and debunks the propagandistic talking points used by Deep State operatives and their media allies to push the US into indefinite war.

In virtually every aspect of public life, we make policy choices by comparing the cost and benefits of various policies. We often refuse to impose limits even though we know they would save lives: we could ban cars or make the speed limit 25 mph and save hundreds of thousands of lives. We don't because we assess that the benefits of cars outweigh the costs of those deaths. Why do we still refuse to use this analysis for COVID?

In this video, Glenn Greenwald elaborates on the Substack reporting he did, reviewing amazing video and documentary evidence proving that top US political and military officials deliberately lied to the public for years, insisting that the Afghan Security Forces were strong and close to ready while, in secret, they knew they were a joke and a sham.

Last night I discussed the implications of the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, why the Taliban takeover was inevitable, and why both Trump and Biden were right to demand a complete removal of US troops after 20 years.

On Thursday night, the Fox News Host began his prime-time program with a discussion of YouTube's suspension from its platform of Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) for his warnings that cloth masks do little to protect against COVID, and then spoke with me about the dangers of rising Big Tech censorship and the central importance of this platform to fight against it.

In our debut video, I explain why I think free speech platforms like Rumble are so vital to support; outline how I intend to use this new platform to strengthen our journalism; and dissect the Washington Post's article this morning on our move to Rumble as a case study to show how corporate media outlets so commonly deceive and mislead.

Enjoy the short description of why we moved to Rumble, why we regard the few remaining free speech platforms as so vital, and what we intend to do here.

Our first real video will be up very shortly.
