There’s a lesson to be learnedabout
Dan Bongino’s edited Trump
interview

Original Article

Posted By: Magnante, 8/10/2021 8:53:47 AM

Dan Bongino has what he calls his 48-hour rule: Don’t run with an “amazing” story before 48 hours have passed, allowing the facts to emerge. Many of Bongino’s fans would have done well to remember that when Liz Harrington, Trump’s spokesperson, pointed out that Fox News had deleted from the video of Bongino’s phone interview with Trump the part at which Trump referred to election fraud. In fact, there was a good reason for that cut, but Bongino got a lot of hate mail before he could explain. I’ll explain below the three takeaway lessons from this whole experience.

Andrea Widburg is exactly correct in her summation. Fox should stop using YouTube. Short of that they should have inserted a notice saying why the video was edited and point the finger back at YouTube. They should never edit the content without telling the host. Bongino was caught unawares and you could tell on his Monday morning show he was peeved. It would have been better if Trumps spox had contacted Bongino before she tweeted but maybe it's a lesson she's learned also.

The takeaway is that we are surrendering our rights to "Big Tech". We are allowing them to determine what information we can see and hear. We are allowing them to censor our thoughts, opinions, and words. We are allowing them to completely control the narrative. No one is defending our rights against this assault and "Big Tech" along with government officials have created a climate of fear and cancel that doe not allow to even network to stand up against this without fear of being publicly shamed or have some government organization monitor us. Continuing along this path leads to 1) box cars for those deemed unfit to be part of this "new" society or 2) existence under a regime that makes the Stasi regime look mild and tame.

Oh poop! Fox knew exactly what google/youtube would do. They did NOT provide the disclaimer, so they knowingly allowed big tech to do their dirty work. How convenient! Fox is the responsible one on this action. Dan is sorta of an innocent participate. He knows full well the issues with Trump and the fact that anything connected to the voter fraud is censored by fox! Yes fox will not allow such discussions. So why the heck is Dan on fox? Money of course. If you work for fox you must take the heat. Fox allowed the technies to do their dirty work with full knowledge of what would happen and so did Dan. I love him but when you lay down with dogs you will get fleas...yep.

Fox has some really good conservative persons, like Dan Bongino. However Fox also has Paul Ryan behind the scenes. Never forget that Paul Ryan refused to support President Trump's agenda when he was the speaker of the house.

I don't watch Fox at all I started backing away in 2015. I would have missed it anyway. Who determines off limits or proper? All people should shun venues that will cut or censor their speech. Never visit an enemy camp it's a dumb move. In this case Youtube prevailed.

I have an idea: Why dont we all post 5 minute long "videos" with a black screen and the following message: XYZ(youtube, facebook,etc) Does not permit the display or publication of legal speech, protected by the 1st Amendment. This public service announcement is in place of the interesting and politically pertinent message.

One of Ann Coulter's pieces was run in in Breitbart a couple of weeks ago and it was heavily edited to exclude parts that weren't flattering to some readers. It's becoming a common trend. Can't wait until the classics are offered to students only on line and in an edited form.

If Fox was going to post to YouTube, it should have posted the entire interview and then stood up to "big tech" for deleting the posting and/or suspending Fox. As it was, Fox went the cowards way; being the submissive party in the interaction.

Less than a year ago, Fox was in the vanguard of nullifying the votes of traditional Americans and queering the re-election of President Trump. Many conservative Trump supporters refuse to give up their Fox, even as they gripe about the Biden administration's deliberate but quick march to communism. I guess some folks view giving up Fox as their modern "Valley Forge" trial, one they are doomed to fail, not because they are freezing from the cold and weak from starvation but because it's simply too danged inconvenient to give up on Fox, Tucker, and their other celebrities of choice, as Fox desperately tries to regain its seat at the cool kid's table.

I think I know Dan well enough to know that he'll have someone assigned to monitor all screwtube vids attributed to him so he can be the one to blow the whistle next time. We who used to be referred to as conservatives when conserving the status quo meant conserving the constitution and the rights it respected and protected, are so thirsty for a voice we are easily pandered to and manipulated by smart marketeers. If I were to stake a cherished, albeit at this stage of life arguably obsolete, body part on one person in the public sphere who is who he presents himself to be, a defender of God given rights, it is Dan Bongino.

If Fox has to make special edits to post things on You Tube it shouldn't be posting things on You Tube. This is a poor excuse.

Enough of this! Google is not a person. Some PERSON deleted the offensive Trump remarks. Who? May we not know the name of the Google person? Or is this also censored? Come on. Companies do not act. They are not people. People in the companies act, on behalf of the Company. That is no secret. We pay for Google. Should we not know who we are paying? How does the person who did the censoring benefit? Cash payment? Promotion? Status? Inquiring minds want to know.

The embarrassment that is Joe Biden 24 replies

Although the White House had intended to keep Biden under wraps for as long as possible, the demand that he say something – anything – about the unfolding debacle in Afghanistan forced him to leave Camp David for a 20-minute statement, after which he refused to take any questions. The important part of what he said boils down to one sentence: We had to leave and everything that went wrong was Trump’s or the Afghans' fault. Biden is a craven coward, a feckless fool, a dismal dummy, and a man who will soon have more blood on his hands than a thousand Lady Macbeths.

The Biden Administration, elected Democrat politicians, government bureaucrats, the education establishment, and clueless corporate management are hellbent on imposing Covid-19 vaccine mandates. These mandates could potentially apply to everyone over the age of 12. The FDA, at the urging of Biden Administration, is on the cusp of granting final approval for the mRNA (Pfizer and Moderna) vaccines in an unprecedented and abbreviated period of time, thus, providing the legal basis for the mandates to be imposed and enforced. Based on ongoing research and actual experience with these drugs, there should be a significant slow-down

Afghanistan is a disaster of untold dimensions. It's a story so big it's actually drawing mainstream media interest, given the monumental scale of failure from our country's sorry leadership. But nothing beats this analysis from a CNN contributor who blasts Joe Biden to smithereens in the most damning presentation of facts so far. That CNN would publish this is almost as newsworthy as the unfolding Afghanistan fiasco. Peter Bergen is an old war correspondent who was onto bin Laden back in the 1990s and actually interviewed the monster. He knows his stuff. In his analysis, he puts all of the blame squarely on Joe Biden.

Prosecutors in the cases against the January 6 demonstrators are starting to run into some judicial pushback: Questions about exculpatory evidence in their possession not turned over as the law demands, lower courts assessing the defendant as more dangerous than the evidence warranted, and most significantly, whether the prosecution is overcharging defendants with the federal crime of obstruction. Most of the defendants are charged with knowingly entering or remaining in a restricted area -- a fancy way of saying trespassing. Defendants are entitled to see before pleading to the charges any materially exculpatory evidence

If you don’t think vaccines are one of the great achievements of Western Civilization, just take a walk through a 19th-century cemetery and witness the reality of the human condition before them. However, the COVID vaccine is not a traditional vaccine. It is, instead, a huge experiment that can have major negative consequences and that our institutions are nevertheless trying to make mandatory. (snip) they are an extraordinary achievement in molecular biology. However, if not for mass censorship, it would be stunningly clear that the COVID vaccines have been causing an unacceptable level of adverse reactions, especially for a virus with a death rate of only .5%.

President Joe Biden will remain hidden at his presidential retreat at Camp David through Monday, according to the White House, as the Taliban swiftly seized control of Afghanistan. The president’s daily guidance for Monday indicated Biden would remain at Camp David for at least one more day, with no public events scheduled. But a senior administration official indicated to reporters Sunday evening that Biden might address the country “in the next few days,” according to reports. It remains unclear whether Biden will speak from Camp David or return to the White House to deliver his speech, the reports noted. He was previously scheduled to remain at Camp David until Wednesday.

The US has so far flown at least two C-17 cargo jets out of Kabul and more flights are expected throughout Monday night and later this week despite chaos on the ground on Monday which involved eight people dying and flights being halted. On Sunday, one of the first flights out was the US Air Force C-17 numbered RCH 871, which flew from Kabul to Qatar.

President Joe Biden delivered a speech of quiet fury at the White House on Monday, defending his decision to bring home U.S. troops before blaming Afghan leaders for their failure to prevent the country collapsing. 'I stand squarely behind my decision,' Biden said. 'After 20 years I've learned the hard way. That there was never a good time to withdraw U.S. forces.' It was the first time the president had spoken publicly about the unfolding crisis in six days. He was forced to return from Camp David amid hostile headlines about his absence from Washington while Americans were being rescued from Kabul airport.
