With Charlie still banned from Twitter— alongside The Babylon Bee, Tucker Carlson, and Donald Trump, among others— and following weeks of solidarity & protest from the Conservative Movement, a new development has shaken the Twitttersphere, sending tech tyrants scrambling. We're talking of course about the colossal development that saw the world's wealthiest man purchasing a 9.2% share in the maligned tech platform, becoming its largest shareholder. Charlie unpacks the apparent motivations behind Elon's latest move and what exactly means for those who are currently censored, shadow-banned, or cancelled and how it may impact the national debate surrounding our First Amendment rights in a truly foundational way. He also highlights a deeper point centered around Elon's purchase and how it may signal the rise of a new class of Pro-America elites who are willing to exchange their fortunes in return for societal good— a refreshing and welcome change from the likes of Gates, Bezos, and the rest.

2:07.7 | power? How should they treat their country? Well 100 years ago Carnegie, Melon and Chase they were some of the wealthiest people ever in the history of the planet. |
2:17.1 | Now there is no doubt that they were powerful and that they had wealth but they used that wealth largely to try and preserve America, build hospitals, libraries, build YMCA's, build things that actually helped the well being of the nation. |
2:32.6 | They wanted a strong America. Now over the last couple years a common lament from this program has been the fact that the people who are in charge of our country, the wealthiest people are involved in this pattern of self hatred. |
2:48.6 | They're engaged in this relentless pattern of not doing what's best for the country of engaging in ideas for the world economic forum, the suppression of free speech, woke ideology, the suffocation of the individual. |
3:05.6 | We have talked about how people like Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos and George Soros and the Google people and the Louis Vuitton guy they seem to be so fixated on using their unlimited wealth to do things that actually hurt the cause of liberty, not help the cause of liberty. |
3:23.6 | That hurt the strength of America and weaken America. This has seemed to be almost overwhelming especially the last couple of years. We've been complaining about how AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Johnson and Johnson and Moderna, they cooperate with Fauci and the FDA and Bill Gates and it seems like the elites have it all figured out that they always have each other's back and basically the only thing that we have left is the truth which matters and common everyday people fighting for that. |
