Transcripts For FBC Lou Dobbs Tonight 20240712

As they demurred to the awesome power of the u. S. Congress. They were dismissive of any notion, they of all people would stifle competition or could in any way strangle free speech and crush conservative voices and votes. They claim to be the fartherrest thing from monopolists or oligarchs. They compete not only against one another and viciously but against others. Googles ceo, sundar pichai, claims his Company Faces intense competition, yet somehow, some way, google manages to dominate search traffic, accounting for, are you ready, almost 92 of all searches done online, 92 . That is very close to monopolistic, dont you think . And google also remains the largest digital ad platform by market share. Last year nearly 32 of all Digital Advertising dollars were spent, on google. The company paying a 1. 7 billion fine in march to the European Union where they stood accused of abusing the giant Advertising Market dominance, well, that denial was found to be absurd. All four companies today though under investigation by the Justice Department and a number of state attorneys general for monopolistic, anticompetitive behavior. And theyre looking into whether these Big Tech Companies should be, pardon the expression, broken up. Facebook Ceo Mark Zuckerberg was asked directly about that, grilled on whether his Company Bought the now popular app instagram in order to neutralize a potential competitor. Perish the thought. Here is his response. Ive always been clear that we viewed instagram both as a competitor and as a compliment to our services. I think with hindsight it probably looks like obvious that instagram would have reached the scale that it has today but at the time it was far from obvious lou amazons Ceo Jeff Bezos seemed to, well, to garner the least attention and had the fewest questions of the day but he did reveal amazon may be using some access to Critical Third Party data in order to build their own competitive products. And to further, well, increase their revenue. Mr. Bezos does amazon ever access and use Third Party Data when making business decisions, and just a yes or no will suffice . I cant answer that question yes or no. What i can tell you we have a policy against using seller specific to aid our private label business but i cant guarranty you that that policy has never been violated. Lou well, darn the luck. On the censorship of conservatives congressman jim jordan, the strongest voice in that room as he blasted the obvious political bias of Silicon Valley and big tech. Big tech is out to get conservatives. That is not a suspicion. That is not a hunch. Thats pa fact. July 20th, 2020, google removes the home pages of breitbart and the daily caller. Just last night we learned google has sensorred breitbart to go much, traffic declined 99 . Google threatened to demonetize the federalist. April 19, 2020. Google and youtube announce a policy censoring the content that conflicts with recommendations of the world health organization. Think about that, world health organization, a organization that lied to us. A organization that shilled for china. If you contradict something they say, they can say whatever they want. They can shill for china. You Say Something against them, you get censored. Lou no Obvious Solutions were proffered. Congressman jordan targeted googles ceo demanding his assurance that google would not tip the scales for the dems in november . This is a simple question. Can you today assure americans you will not tailor your features in any way to help, specifically help one candidate over another, what im concerned about you helping joe biden over President Trump . We wont do any work, you know, to politically tilt anything one way or the other. It is against our core values. Lou there, i hope you feel better. Oregons radical dem Governor Kate Brown today, finally, finally choosing to Pay Attention to her oath of office and step up to end the mob violence in portland, oregon. That has ravaged portland for more than two months now. Oregon state police will now be deployed to Downtown Portland under the plan agreed, with dhs. The federal officers who are know guarding federal property wont leave, however, until those troopers and local Law Enforcement are in place and the unrest and violence has ended. The federal agents last night, once again were forced to deploy tear gas. The anarchists and activists of antifa and black lives matter firing fireworks at the officers and agents, projectiles. President trump this morning unloaded on oregons democratic officials. They are anarchists. Theyre radical, crazy people and, theyre either going to straighten it out for themselves, portland, the police, maybe if the state gets involved. That means the governor, and the mayor, but theyre very weak people. Lou the Justice Department today also announced expansion of its operation legend, that Program Designed to help local police in their fight against rising violence. The program now expanding to cleveland, detroit, and to milwaukee. The initiative is already in place in kansas city, chicago and albuquerque. Research psychologist dr. Robert epstein says google wants to shift 10 of the voting public away from President Trump to make populism, a quote, blip in history, but that isnt what the ceo of google said, is it . Dr. Epstein says, telling breitbart, quote, one of the things that was said by one much their top executives is, quote, were going to use every means at our disposal, all of googles power to make sure trump isnt reelected. So if theyre using every single means at their disposal, then theyre using all of the techniques that i have discovered and probably more than i havent discovered yet and that is enough to shift roughly 10 of the voting population of the United States with no one knowing theyre being manipulated. No paper trail for authorities to trace. Joining us tonight, he knows something about the power of big tech and Silicon Valley, were joined by donald trump, jr. , executive Vice President of the trump organization. Bestselling author and of course son of President Donald Trump. Don, jr. ,s twitter account was restricted yesterday after tweeting a video highlighting the benefits of hydroxychloroquine. Don, great to have you with us on the show. I would like, can you hear me . Yeah. Lou good. I want to ask you, first of all, your reaction to being suspended by twitter for effectively promoting that video extolling the benefits of hydroxychloroquine. Well i didnt even say anything about it. What was interesting about it, lou, i think were having a little technical difficulties. Im doing this on the cell phone because the satellite feed isnt working. I simply said this is an interesting counter it point to what youre hearing and narrative youre getting every day from democrats and, and or the Mainstream Media. It was a group of doctors, about a dozen of them. They were talking about, we treated real patients with it. Weve seen this, i said this is interesting. People should listen to this. People should hear a dissenting opinion. I didnt say right or wrong. For that i got thrown off of twitter for 12 hours. It happened to numerous other people as well. It is amazing that the doctors at twitter apparently know more than medical professionals, dozens of them, standing on the steps of congress with some congressman. Lou Mark Zuckerberg today obviously making very, making it very clear to the assembled congressman that he didnt have anything to do with your suspension or Sidney Powell, general flynns defense attorney, her account. But saying at the same time, that he didnt want to be a arbiter of truth. That his company was doing precisely that. That twitter, he acknowledged was doing exactly that, deciding what is valid, what is invalid what is true, and that isnt their role nor is it their prerogative under our constitution to do. What are we going to do . Were watching this hear being today, but i dont know it is going to solve much . I dont know that it will solve much because republicans have to wake up to this problem. Obviously Mark Zuckerberg, issue i had was with twitter. They all do the same thing. Instagram which is owned by facebook, did the same thing to me i called out the just he juse smollett hoax. I got my account taken down. Did anyone bother to look into this story because it seems really, really ridiculously farfetched. Turns out i was right. That didnt stop them from labeling me as someone provokes hate speech. Didnt stop the media taking that from running with it, that im promoting conspiracy theories. It is only a Conspiracy Theory which youre proven right which i obviously was. That said, it didnt change anything. The problem we have in congress that many republicans, they dont know anything social media. Theyre not on it. Theyre not in touch with their base, deplatformed, anyone censored, anyone religious, anyone who is Second Amendment supporter, who is prolife and all of those things are destroyed and decimated in the algorithms of social media and frankly Search Engines of google. Look what google did to breitbart. It doesnt end, republicans are not aware of it. Republicans say, it is free market principle. It is not premarket when you get government protections. They getting in of dove lars of free market Liability Protections from the government. They cannot decide what you and americans get to see, what think dont. Pushing their liberal, california, bordering on communist agenda to the american people. Theyre attempting to sway an election. Theyre attempting to sway the way that people think. And it is very effective when people, ordinary people who doesnt see what is going on are bombarded with a onesided, incredibly biased leftwing talking point memo on a daily basis on these platforms. Lou it is truly stunning the awesome power that these, these giant tech companies, social media companies, with them, are exerting on American Society right now. It is, it is stunning. It is also unamerican. For this to continue to under our antitrust laws, yet as you say the republicans act like scared children when you mention regulating what is obviously monopolistic and anticompetitive behavior. It is, it is absolutely juvenile response on the part of republicans that should know something about economics and politics. Lets talk about politics real quickly. Looks to me like a number of polls are turning in your fathers direction. The president is looking, i think, significantly stronger despite the polling biases of most of these organizations. Your thoughts . Listen, i think youre right. Again, there is a lot for us to overcome. When you talk about that bias. Lou, you and i do this stuff every day. Were watching it 24 7. But for the average person working hard to put food on their table, theyre consuming five minutes of news a day, that is 96 negative against donald trump there are people, people quote, unquote professional journalists still perpetrating the russia hoax nonsense. It is hard to over come that. People have to understand what is going on. People have to understand joe bidens past. Because of quarantine i had a few months off. I wrote another book, liberal privilege. It is on done, jr. Com. Dlj. Com. I looked into the career of this 50 year swamp creature. This is not the guy that the Mainstream Media is pushing. He is not a reasonable guy. Honestly if you watch joe biden, the way he behaviors. He cant remember where he is, he is a just a pawn for the radical left. All you have to do is look on his website and see biden, communist manifesto joint unity plan, realize this is a radical guy who is not in charge. The radical left will be in charge of this presidency, if that god forbid happens, and it will be the end of america as we know it, lou. Lou donald trump, jr. , good to have you with us. Come back soon. All the business. Well get to these Technology Problems sorted out between, between you and us. Thanks a lot, don. Turning now to wall street, stocks finishing higher today.

Ecuadors navy is on alert this evening, an armada of 260 chinesehi fishing ships is encroaching on the protected waters off the Marine Reserve around the galapagos islands. Lets show you a radar image here, if we could, please. This shows the large cluster of, as you see, labeled there, in the lower left, on your screen, those boats, 200 miles from the islands but the protected area extends 188 from these islands. They have encroached within 20 miles of the reserve. The ecuador minister addressing the encroachment, this fleets size, aggressiveness against species, is a threat to balance of sees piece in the galapagos. White house, National Security council today supporting ecuador, tweeting support, the United States stands with the president and our friends and partners in ecuador against any aggression toward their economic and environmental sovereignty. That is what this precisely is, it is an aggression. The attorney general, william barr, yesterday reiterated the fbis interview of general flynn was nothing less than an effort to entrap him, to entrap him in a lie. Barr also confirmed there is an Ongoing Investigation into the unmasking of general flynn by highranking obama officials. The attorney general said u. S. Attorney john bash is looking into the nearly 50 times that flynn was unmasked in the two months prior to the trump inauguration. Joining us now is the attorney for general michael flynn, Sidney Powell. She is a former federal prosecutor, bestselling author and recentau victim of the arbir es of truth at twitter. You were suspended for, as i understand, 12 hours, sidney. Im still locked out of my account. Ma oh, no, im still locked out of my account. I filed multiple complaints with twitter. Talking about w hydroxychloroquine. Lou well, you know, god forbid anybody express an opinion one way or the other on hydroxychloroquine in 21st century america. The arbiters of truth, led by the, their, what would you call him, the grand wizard, jack dorsey . What in the world are they doing there . , i mean, when you can be shut out of twitter, when the son of the president , donald, jr. , can be run roughshod over, like this, with, by social media, were in a heck much a lot of trouble ink this country. We are, lou. I mean, one much our most important foundations of course is freedom of speech. I understand these are private companies but they have benefit substantially from both taxpayer resources and government contracts and the use of the internet, that the taxpayers essentially fund and their ability to censor anything has got tong be ended and soon becae they are definitely adversely affecting conservative speech and trying toon influence this election. We know that they are owned substantially and have substantial ownership interests in them by foreign countries. I think twitter has a substantial ownership interest prosomeone in saudi arabia. They are of course doing business with communist china. Google is assisting communist china with Artificial Intelligence even for military projects. The entire situation is extremely concerning and the government needs to do something to shut it down now so that were allowed basic free speech. Lou so what can, what can the federal government do right now . What can the Justice Department do . Because this is anticompetitive behavior. It is, it is an abuse of what is monopolistic power. My god, what can the government do . There might even be some criminal statutes that apply, lou, because much their influence or attempts to influence the election. I mean itt is very clear that it is only conservative speech theyre stifling, all of them, google, amazon. All of them. Lou what drives me crazy, sydney, is sid, this has been going on for years. O yes. Lou go back
