Good evening. It's Wednesday, February 15th. Welcome to a new episode of System Update,

our live nightly show that airs every Monday for Friday at 7 PM Eastern, exclusively here on

Rumbull, the free speech alternative to YouTube.

Tonight, Matt Gates, the Republican congressman from Florida, finally has his name cleared as the

result of an announcement from the Biden Justice Department that they do not have sufficient evidence to charge him with any crimes.

Gates had his name and reputation dirtied and crippled and even destroyed by an anonymous leak published almost two full years ago by the New York Times under this headline,

quote, Matt Gates is said to face Justice Department inquiry over sex with an underage girl.

Despite having no opportunity to contest this innuendo, because he was never charged,

Gates has been widely assumed to be guilty of one of the most horrendous

crimes there is.

Now we had already booked Congressman Gates several days ago to appear on our show tonight

to talk to him about his new bill to cut off all future U.S. funds

to fuel the proxy war in Ukraine.

And for our interview segment tonight, we did sit down with him just before the airing of

our program to talk to him about that bill and we'll show you

that but we also asked him about the vindication he received today and the lessons to draw

from that. Now before we show you that interview we will examine what happened here.

I've been reporting on this story from the very beginning

and we want to highlight the crucial lessons

about due process and presumption of innocence

and media recklessness that were deliberately trampled on when it came to his rights

and the goal and the instrument was the media malfeasance.
