Stephen A. Smith Drops BOMBSHELL "Theory" On Why Trump REALLY Ran Again In 2024!

Rumble is suing California for allegedly forcing the social media platform to alter its own speech and censor its users’ speech, according to a copy of the lawsuit obtained by The Daily Wire. The lawsuit was filed Wednesday by Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California, Sacramento Division. Rumble is challenging California’s latest laws punishing speakers for certain political commentary, which California Governor Gavin Newsom has framed as measures that will combat the “harmful use of deepfakes in political ads and other content.” California’s AB 2655, the “Defending Democracy from Deepfake Deception Act of 2024,” “deputizes” Rumble to restrict its user’s speech, ADF said in a release, while AB 2839, “Protecting Democracy Against Election Disinformation and Deepfakes,” uses vague standards to punish individuals posting political content about elections. “California’s war against political speech is censorship, plain and simple,” ADF Senior Counsel Phil Sechler told The Daily Wire. “We can’t trust the government to decide what is true in our online political debates.” “The very thought of the government judging the content of political speech, and then deciding whether it should be permitted, censored, or eliminated altogether is about the most chilling thing you could imagine,” added Chris Pavlovski, Chairman and CEO of Rumble. “Rumble
will always celebrate freedom and support creative independence, so we’re delighted to work with ADF to help protect lawful online expression.” Though Newsom and California lawmakers framed the recent bills as measures to address election-related deepfakes, ADF points out that the bills came in response to Newsom’s criticism of a parody video of then-presidential candidate Kamala Harris, in which Harris is depicted mocking herself and the Democratic Party. “Manipulating a voice in an ‘ad’ like this one should be illegal,” Newsom said of the video, vowing that he’d  “be signing a bill in a matter of weeks to make sure it is.” His actions also followed claims from the White House in June that legitimate videos depicting President Joe Biden looking frail and confused were “cheap fakes.” This is amazing ? pic.twitter.com/KpnBKGUUwn — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 26, 2024 Rumble is suing the state to defend the constitutionally protected right to freely post political content online, according to ADF. The website’s lawsuit argues that California is requiring Rumble not only to restrict its users’ speech, but also to alter its own content and viewpoint to promote messages that Rumble does not agree with, and to remove and label content according to the whims of state officials. That includes content that California officials consider “reasonably likely to harm the reputation or electoral prospects” of candidates or “reasonably likely to falsely undermine confidence” in an election.

Other online platforms and media companies must see these laws for what they are — a threat to their existence.” In September, ADF represented the Babylon Bee when the Christian satire website sued California on similar grounds. Less than a month later, after a federal district court found AB 2839 may violate the First Amendment, California officials backed down, admitting that they could not enforce their laws censoring political satire and parody against The Babylon Bee. “Our job is hard enough when our jokes keep coming true, as if they were prophecies,” Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon said at the time. “But it becomes significantly more difficult when self-serving politicians abuse their power to try to control public discourse and clamp down on comedy.” “Unfortunately for them,” he added, “the First Amendment secures our right to tell jokes they don’t like.” Read the filing here.

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon blew off criticisms during a recent appearance on the liberal podcast “Pod Save America,” claiming that Harris’ obvious avoidance of tough interviews was just perception driven by “the narrative.” Dillon joined several of the campaign’s top officials — David Plouffe, Quentin Fulks, and Stephanie Cutter — for their first interview since Harris lost her 2024 White House bid to President-elect Donald Trump, and their post-mortem focused on the failures of the American people to see through media narratives rather than any possible faults in their own candidate or campaign.

CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE She went on to argue that Trump — who, along with Vice President-elect JD Vance, was doing dozens of rallies and interviews — was not being held to the same standard as Harris, which she said further complicated matters. “But real people heard, in some way, that we were not going to have interviews, which was both not true and also so counter to any kind of standard that was put on Trump, that I think that was a problem,” she said. “Being up against a narrative that we weren’t doing anything, or we were afraid to have interviews is completely bulls***, and also like took hold a little bit, and we just, it gave us another thing we had to fight back for that Trump never had to worry about.” Dillon also complained that the questions Harris often got when she did make appearances were frequently “processy,” meaning that they did not do much to help voters get a better view of Harris or her policies.

Georgia Congressman Barry Loudermilk is challenging the January 6th Committee’s findings, leading to rising partisan tensions in Congress. Loudermilk demands corrections to a DoD report on January 6th for inaccuracies. DoD officials allegedly misled Congress regarding National Guard deployment timing. Loudermilk’s Challenge to the January 6th Narrative The Committee on House Administration’s Subcommittee on Oversight, led by Chairman Barry Loudermilk, has taken a critical stance against the Department of Defense’s (DoD) report on the January 6th events. Loudermilk’s findings suggest that the report contains factual inaccuracies, prompting a demand for corrections. The Subcommittee discovered that the DoD intentionally delayed deploying the D.C. National Guard, and Secretary of the Army Ryan McCarthy falsely conveyed to Congress that the Guard was en route, despite the Guard remaining at the Armory until 5 PM. Loudermilk’s investigation further revealed that political concerns influenced decision-making, causing significant delays as the situation at the Capitol deteriorated. Video evidence and testimony from key DCNG personnel indicated discrepancies in the DoD Inspector General’s (IG) report, which seemingly favored senior DoD officials and misrepresented the National Guard’s readiness and response. The Subcommittee criticized the report for apparent bias and incompleteness, urging transparency and accountability. OMG: Bobby DeGregoris is a husband & father of 4 kids. On J6, he hurt nobody & damaged nothing—a truly innocent protester exercising his 1A rights. But Merrick Garland’s DOJ lied, terrorized his family with a violent FBI raid, & destroyed him—all to serve J6 fraud. IT MUST END. pic.twitter.com/gpgxwP3l1x — John Strand (@JohnStrandUSA) November 26, 2024 Pushing for Congressional Action Loudermilk’s efforts underline a broader initiative to bring about a congressional resolution to invalidate the findings of the Democrat-led January 6th Committee. He asserts that the evidence gathered during his investigation justifies such a resolution, challenging the narrative established by the Committee. The DoD report, initially released in November 2021, aimed to evaluate the DoD’s role on January 6th; however, Loudermilk and his Subcommittee have raised concerns about inconsistencies and irregularities within it. Encouraging thorough scrutiny, Loudermilk’s stance highlights ongoing debates over accountability and interpretation of events. While Loudermilk presses for action, his advocacy underscores the entrenched political divide in the Capitol, reflecting national disagreements regarding the Committee’s findings. 40,000 hours of video they withhold for J6. This is a very different story from what we have been told. pic.twitter.com/rMK9zU8Q8F — JOSH DUNLAP (@JDunlap1974) November 25, 2024 Ongoing Political Friction The situation epitomizes the deep-seated polarization and divergent views present in Congress, with Loudermilk’s challenge illustrating stark ideological rifts. Questions over the legitimacy of the January 6th Committee’s conclusions continue to loom large, exacerbating tensions. His actions not only focus on procedural transparency but also emphasize the critical need for bipartisan discourse to reconcile varying interpretations of that fateful day. Loudermilk’s bold moves have shed light on overlooked facets of the event and call for greater scrutiny of the DoD’s actions. Through persistent investigation and advocacy, he champions a resolution to examine and potentially overturn the narrative set by the January 6th Committee, shining a light on the persistent and deepening political divides.

A congressional task force is ramping up its investigation into the assassination attempts on Donald Trump and targeting the ATF for allegedly hindering their efforts. The ATF argues it has cooperated fully, partnering with the FBI. We will see. The Investigation Focus A congressional task force has accused the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) of obstructing their investigation into assassination attempts on President-elect Trump. The task force has issued subpoenas to ATF employees, highlighting a need for their testimonies following the bureau’s lack of compliance with document and interview requests. These subpoenas are aimed at resolving issues surrounding the ATF’s alleged lack of transparency and cooperation. Previous attempts to obtain the required documents from the ATF have met with delays, leading to the issuance of subpoenas for a specific ATF agent and a supervisory agent. The task force, led by Chairman Rep. Mike Kelly and Ranking Member Rep. Jason Crow, is determined to uncover the truth. They assert their requests have not received satisfactory responses, hampering their ability to thoroughly investigate. House Trump assassination task force subpoenas two ATF employees: "To date, ATF has failed to produce a single document responsive to the Task Force’s requests and has failed to make any of its personnel available for interviews." — Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) November 19, 2024 ATF’s Stance The ATF has responded to these accusations, emphasizing its commitment to support the task force. Spokesperson Kristina Mastropasqua stated the ATF has already provided a detailed briefing clarifying its role. The briefing explained that they had no formal responsibilities for the security of Trump’s campaign event but assisted in the subsequent investigation by tracing the firearm involved in the attempt. This cooperation, according to the ATF, showcases their willingness to aid the investigative process. The ATF also reiterated its collaboration with the FBI and the Department of Justice, which have reportedly already shared relevant documents with the task force. Despite these assertions, the task force remains intent on securing direct engagement with ATF personnel to ensure thorough transparency and accountability.

The task force is focused on gathering all necessary information to clarify the events surrounding the assassination attempts, ensuring no stone is left unturned. Given the high stakes, the task force is intent on overcoming any hurdles to conclude the investigation comprehensively. The task force continues to navigate inter-agency cooperation while striving to eliminate any obstacles in their path. These efforts are crucial for maintaining the integrity of the investigation and upholding justice in the face of adversity. As the investigation unfolds, public interest remains high, offering no alternative but for all involved parties to work towards transparency and truth.
