With Whirlpool's proven performance and our everyday low prices, better tasting, better quality water is within reach. Shop pro trusted brands like Whirlpool and more in store or online, Lowes, we help you save. So American culture is divided into two areas, okay? You've got politicians that shape laws and carry out policies and they have a tremendous impact on how we all live. Now, we the people have control over that. We can vote for whom we want to, but if we choose the wrong candidates, then we get hosed. Okay? It's as simple as that. But that's on us. No outside forces. The second culture shaper is the corporate media. Powerful corporations that control the communications industry. Nobody controls them. They do what they want. Now we the people do have input. So, and we'll get to this a little bit later on, you don't have to watch or listen or read any of this stuff. And if you don't, that helps the independence of the country and hurts corporate profits. So again, two culture shapers. Political corporate media. Because the media gets out the information you depend on. You can't be running around all 50 states and 185 countries all over the world and know what happened. You have to depend on people like me, okay, to tell you what's happening. There are very few people like me, which is probably a good thing. I will never lie to you. Many in a corporate media will outright lie to you for money. Okay, so let's get specific. Since 2016, when Donald Trump entered politics, the national media has overwhelmingly supported the Democratic Party under Eisenhower in the 50s, Nixon, landslide victory against McGovern, Reagan. The media didn't like those people, but they didn't outright support the Democratic Party. Okay? Now they justify their support of the Democratic Party by saying Trump's the devil. Trump's this, Trump's that. That's number one. Okay? Number two, all the surveys say the same thing, that if you want to work for a media corporation, you got to be left or at least fake it. You are not going to get promoted or even hired if they think you're MAGA or your conservative. Just not not going to happen. So therefore it is controlled, right? And the message is all left. Democrats good, Republicans bad, Trump the devil. Now you will remember on June 10, just about two months ago, an ABC News correspondent named Terry Moran. I believe he worked for ABC for 28 years, all right, was fired because he called President Trump and his top aide, Miller, Stephen Miller, haters. Now, this is a correspondent, not a pundit like me, not an analyst. He's a reporter. They're haters. ABC had to fire him. Disney had to fire the guy. He segues into the media, social media, okay? He's never going to work the corporation again. And he put this up, and I want to read it to you. It's a quote. It is no secret there are hardly any people who supported Donald Trump at ABC News or the other corporate legacy mainstream media networks. And this is bound to impact coverage not so much out of malevolent bias as a cartoon version peddled by Trump ran a car and online maga, but more out of what kind of deafness. So, yes, from my perspective, the old news networks are biased. But Brendan Carr, the head of the fcc, can go to hell. Oh, that's nice. That's very nice. Federal government has no business dictating the editorial content of news coverage. This isn't Viktor Orban, Hungary, or Law and Justice Party, Poland, Putin's Russia, where free voices critical of the Kremlin could still be heard before he crushed them. Terry Moran, July 29th. This guy is a troubled guy. I mean, we're trying to track him down and I'd love to talk to him, and maybe I'm wrong about him. But to say, hey, it's okay that the American corporate media, the most powerful media entity on earth, it's okay that all of them don't like Trump and favor the Democratic Party, but FCC shouldn't get involved with this or Trump shouldn't object to it. No, no, let them do what they want. Does that make any sense to anybody? All right, talk about the fixes in. My God. And there are rules, okay? There are rules. So the. And I'm going to get to those rules in a moment. The FCC has a responsibility. If it allows the networks to take up airspace, then it has to enforce some kind of standards. You can't lie, you can't defame. You can't be in bed with a political party promoting that party. And Brandon Carr is saying we're cracking down on it because Trump is telling them to say that. Yes, that's true, but we're not going to let you guys run wild anymore. Not going to happen. And that's why you're seeing changes. CBS News is about to change big time. Disney will have to follow NBC. They'll Stay where they are, I believe. I don't think we're going to see a lot of change there. Okay. And then Colbert is gone. You're going to see others gone. The View is going to be shaken up on and on and on and on because the federal government does have say now. Not with cable. Federal government has no sway over cable. Cable do whatever it wants. But the networks given air space by the federal government licensing. They are licensed. Mm. Ooh, whatcha eating?

Bill O'Reilly
I'm Piers Morgan, the host of the Piers Morgan Uncensored podcast. We do big interviews and. And we do big debates about whatever's getting people talking. We make news, we make noise, and we make a little bit of trouble too. Come and see what all the fuss is about. You can listen to Piers Morgan Uncensored on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, or wherever you get your podcasts. And Trump is saying, hey, you gotta stop this. Can't have all the corporations in the media supporting the Democratic Party. And so that's where it is. So the culture has shifted. People go to me, oh, it's not the way it used to be. You know, and that's true. It's not the way it used to be. I worked for CBS and ABC News. I'm going to write about that. My experiences there, and my last book After Confronting Evil. But it wasn't crazy. Rather was very liberal, but he wasn't a nut. Jennings was liberal, but he was fair. Rather wasn't fair. Okay, but I'll just give you a little taste of that. So, summing up, we are responsible for who we elect. Those people in Washington and in your state Capitol shape the culture, okay? And the media also shapes the culture, and it's all liberal, with the exception of Fox News and Newsmax. And it's overwhelming, as you probably have heard. Attorney General Pam Bondi says she will present evidence on the Russian collusion fraud conspiracy to a federal grand jury. This coming off a report by National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard saying that CIA Director John Brennan FBI Director James Comey, Hillary Clinton and others conjured up a conspiracy to derail Donald Trump's presidential campaign. Then, after he was elected, to harm him in office. That is the case. Okay, so Bondi and Gabbard, and apparently President Trump, who calls all the shots, believe they have enough evidence to prove it. Okay, so now it goes in a federal grand jury. Now, grand jury is just like you and me. Regular folks is more of them than in a sitting trial. And they have to select the venue. And that's going to be a problem for the Trump administration because all of this alleged conspiracy fraud took place in and around Washington, D.C. and New York City. Remember, Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign headquarters was in Brooklyn. Going to be tough to get it out of there. I mean, you might be able to get into Virginia because that's where the CIA is, Langley. But, boy, you're not going to be able to get it to Florida, Texas or a red state. So Biden is going to have to go into very, very liberal precincts and present her case in front of a federal grand jury. Now, they are more disciplined than local juries, state juries, no question. But that is a hurdle. Okay? Now in the spotlight is, as I mentioned, former CIA Director Brennan. It looks like there is strong evidence against him, former FBI Director James Comey, that hinges on whether Comey knew or was told that the information gleaned about Putin and Russia trying to interfere in the election was phony because Comey presented the evidence to federal judges to get a Pfizer wiretap on the Trump campaign. Now, Comey, of course, is going to say, no, I didn't know. Brennan's going to say, I didn't know. But in Brennan's case, there is a lying to the FBI charge coming, and they have, from what I understand, proof of that. But everybody's entitled to due process. Clapper is the Director of National Intelligence. That's murky on Clapper. I don't know yet. And then there's the big kahuna, to use a surfing expression, Hillary Clinton, whose campaign started all this by hiring people to gin up a phony scenario that Putin and Russia were trying to help Donald Trump become president. Now, Hillary Clinton, that's a interesting study there, because obviously his biggest name. And she's going to say, I don't know anything about it. These were all done by campaign workers and I had nothing to do with it. So the Justice Department, the Trump Justice Department, has to produce evidence to override the denial. We all understand this is no slam dunk case here, a complicated case, okay? Now, Donald Trump wants to punish all of those people. There's no question that he does. All of them he punishes by an indictment. So even if they are acquitted, you know, Brennan and Comey and Hillary and Clapper, whoever else gets indicted has to pay millions of dollars to attorneys to defend them. Maybe Hillary's got money left over from her presidential campaign because you can use that. She could use it legally, but the others don't. They're going to have to pony up millions of dollars in legal fees, and that's a revenge play. Now, President Obama is out of the equation. We explained this many times. Just go over it real quickly. There was a movement to indict President Trump for inciting the January 6 riot in D.C. at the Capitol building. Supreme Court threw that out, said, look, Donald Trump was president at the time. He had a right to do anything he wanted to do as far as policy is concerned, and that was it. And Obama can fall back, Absolutely. Or not. So if it's proven that Obama saw evidence that there was fraud in this Russian collusion thing and then ordered another assessment, which is what is going around now. Obama said, look, part of my job, I wanted to triple check it. And nobody believes, nobody serious person believes that President Obama is going to be indicted here unless whistleblowers emerge. And that's what Bondi is counting on. The attorney general is counting on people coming out to testify against Hillary, Brennan, Comey, Clapper and perhaps Obama. That changes the equation. Ok, if these people rise up and say, oh, I told this person, oh, this person did this and can prove it, the case change. Okay, so do you have it? Does everybody have it? That's where we are on payback for Russian collusion.

All right, now, just today. Just today. No, let me run a sound bite. Let me run a sound bite and then I'll get to Epstein and today. So last night I was on NewsNation. I'm on air every Monday at 9 and then on Wednesday, 8:15. So Leland Vittert and I talked about this Russian collusion. Go Is this grand jury is trying to go back and relitigate this? Is potentially putting Obama era people in jail a good thing for the country? Yeah, yeah. If these people tried to derail an election, tried to hurt a sitting president by bogus, phony, false conspiracies, because that's what. Isn't that called politics? Using them to get. Okay, Leland, is it called politics? Get a phony FISA warrant to spy on you and your family? Do you call that politics? I don't think so. That's a crime. Okay, you know I'm right. You know, you just don't let this go. But there is a personal vendetta on the part of Donald Trump, believe me. Okay? Not just about them, but in New York City and a whole bunch of other places. All right, now let's get to Epstein. So this is really interesting. The left, the Democratic Party have been torturing Donald Trump about his alleged association with Epstein. The most heinous man probably we've seen in years. He's dead. He committed suicide. Sure. He's having a fun time now down below. So Jeffrey Epstein knew Donald Trump. Okay? All of those people knew each other in New York City and that's that. But it's not a crime to know Jeffrey Epstein. But the Democratic Party and the Trump haters are insinuating heavily that, that Trump was involved in some kind of criminality with Epstein. You all know that. That's what this is all about, though. Enter Congressman James Comer, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee. Who is very loyal to Donald Trump. Okay? And he says, you know what? We're going to subpoena the following people to talk about Epstein in front of our committee. Ready? Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Robert Mueller, the special counsel, James Comey, Bill Barr, Attorney general under Trump first term. Okay? Loretta lynch, former Attorney general under Obama, Eric Holder, Obama's former Attorney general, Merrick Garland, Biden's former Attorney General. On and on and on and on. So Comer saying, you want to play? We'll play. You guys got to come in under oath and do a deposition with my investigators about Epstein. What you knew, what happened and all that. This is brilliant. It's brilliant. They turn it right around. You want to torture Trump for a month, okay, now we're going to torture you. And believe me, anybody lies, whoa, that goes right to the Justice Department. Remember, Congress can't indict anybody. It has to go through the circles. And if anybody takes the fifth. Can you imagine, you imagine on an Epstein deposition, I, when I saw this went, whoa. And I don't usually do that much. I usually can predict. I didn't predict this. I did not. Not all problems can be solved. And I hate to say that because we specialize in problem solving here, I consider myself pretty good at it. But I realize that sometimes, no matter what you do, how logical you are, how fair, how rational, not gonna happen. One name Putin. And that is the subject of this evening's Talking Points Memo. So today, the Trump negotiator, Steve Woodkoff in Moscow talking to Vladimir Putin, who is a picture on the ap. Putin smiling. And they're talking about stopping the Ukrainian war, which is one of the biggest disasters in modern history. Three and a half years, about a million Russian soldiers killed or wounded. About 400,000 Ukrainians, same. But it's the civilians, because Putin is targeting them with drones and bombings and all that. And so he has been named a war criminal by the International Criminal Court in the Hague. That's in the Netherlands. Okay? This is only the third time in history that the leader of a nation has been designated a war criminal. So Putin can't go anywhere because his arrest warrant out for him. He's got to stay in Russia. He's the richest man in the world, as you will see if you read my upcoming book, confronting evil, on September 9, we go into Putin in great detail.

Always properly secured cargo, but anyway. Donald Trump, President of the United States, trying to get this Ukraine thing under control. And Putin won't cooperate. So what do you do? What do you do? It's almost like Japan at the end of World War II. So this is the anniversary of the atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The Japanese knew they lost the war. They couldn't possibly win the war. Tokyo had been firebombed. Millions of Japanese were killed, but they wouldn't surrender and they kept fighting. And the United States didn't want to invade the island because I would say hundreds of thousands of US soldiers and sailors who have been killed, including my father, was on the way to Japan. We write about that in Killing the Rising Sun. So Harry Truman, the president, had to drop the atom bombs and then finally, finally facing absolute destruction of the entire country, the Japanese surrender. Well, Putin is not going to surrender. So I don't expect that these peace talks today are going to move the ball. I hope they do. I hope I'm wrong. And then Donald Trump's going to have to slap onerous tariffs and economic sanctions against Russia, which he should have done a while back, in my opinion. I don't want to second guess, but it was clear because remember that Donald Trump thought he had Putin in a place where he could be rational with him because the first four years of Trump administration, Putin kind of laid back, but no, not now. So we do expect that these sanctions, which will cripple the Russian economy. But here's the kicker. Putin doesn't care. He doesn't care if his people die. He's going to lost a million people killed or wounded in Ukraine. For what does Russia need? Ukraine? No, doesn't need it. Doesn't give them anything. In fact, if they take it over by force, there'll be ongoing guerrilla war there. Ukrainians don't want to be Russians. Okay, so who doesn't care? Starve his people. Okay. And the only thing that could really turn it fast is China. And when I was over in Beijing in May, we talked about Putin and how China is helping Putin and Russia wage this war. North Korea doesn't matter. North Korea's got a few troops in there, but they don't matter. China matters. China's buying lots of oil from Russia, so is India, and it's propping up Putin. He's still got cash coming in. You got to strangle all the cash. So I would expect that Donald Trump, if he goes to Beijing, and I think he will, early fall, late summer, will tie in some kind of deal with China to pull back from Putin. That happens, then we're in. Vlad's in real deep. You know what? Okay. And that's so at least there's some kind of hope here. But again, in my original statement that, you know, we can't solve all problems, sometimes you've got to kill these people. And, you know, if Putin was assassinated, that'd be good for the world. I hate to say it, but it's true. That's the best thing that could happen. Somebody take him out. In fact, Putin can't even go anywhere. When Putin goes home, he lives about seven miles outside of Moscow in his huge palace. All traffic stops around Moscow. Nobody can move. Well, his little motorcade comes out. And his dacha on the Black Sea, he's got submarines and he's got a bunker underneath the DACA where radioactivity couldn't penetrate. So if there's a nuclear war, Putin will survive. Nobody else will. Okay, so that's where we are. We're watching it. An amazingly important story.
