Dana Lashes of sur Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
It's his life mission to make bad decisions.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
It's time for Florida. Man.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
I'm Sergio Sanchezan from my friend Dana Lash. You've heard
it said, you know, don't cry over spilled milk, but yeah,
don't stab anyone as well. So there's this guy in Edgewater,
sixty eight years old who said that he was I
found this funny self medicating with beer.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
I guess what most of y'all do afterward?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Right, he was self medicating with beer to help his
post traumatic stress disorder, but he stabbed his sister in
the face because she asked him to clean up some
spilled milk. He stabbed her in the mouth in the face,
in her body's serious injuries. She wind up at the hospital.
The sister told police that her brother is schizophrenic bipolar
(00:59):
was argued with her about that spilled milk. The woman
said that her brother as after one of his took
one of his two knives at her and he said
he was gonna stab her eyes out. My goodness, sister,
I think it's done. I think it's time that you
look for a new apartments. I'm done to move out
the way things are right now, and because of these well,
(01:23):
one known, truly known isis terrorist attack by the terrorist
in New Orleans.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
The other one, hmm, we don't know yet.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Now it's it's a it's a an explosion that took
place after a suicide that he got popped, you know,
popped one in his head and shot himself in the head.
That the guy in Vegas and then ignited the explosives
inside that cyber truck. Islamo fascism, Islamic extremists. I don't know, man,
I don't know. And this guy had personal problems. He
(01:57):
was according to the reports, maybe he was on faithful
to his wife, had a new baby, went back to
an old girlfriend. This guy obviously not stable. Give in
condition like that, well, you take your life. You're not stable,
you're mentally ill. There's something wrong with you. At least
we know that there's one one incident inspired by isis,
(02:18):
inspired by Islamic radicals, and we need to go back
in and police the ranks in the military because this,
unfortunately provides ammunition to some of the internal American enemies people.
For example, this fool over at MSNBC, Larry O'Donnell he
(02:42):
was running the numbers, saying, yeah, we've suffered more from
our military than from individuals coming in illegally from the
southern border.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
It's cut fifteen Steve.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
A New Orleans terrorists like Timothy mcafey reached the rank
of sergeant in the United States Army. The simple fact
is this country has suffered more deadly terrorism at the
hands of American born citizens who are veterans of the
United States Military than people who have crossed into this
(03:16):
country at the southern border.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Oh my goodness, own, before you start going, oh yeah,
he's right. Absolutely, he's right, my friend, only the feeble minded.
But follow an idiot like this in this conclusion. If
you run the numbers on just under the Biden administration,
run all the crimes, all the shootings, all the rapes,
(03:39):
from the Nungary family, the child in Houston, to this
college student in Georgia, to the in northern California and
San Francisco area. All these people have been killed by
illegal immigrants through the years, especially by this Biden administration
that just opened up the border. All the dead in
the wilderness and the desert, all the dead in the
(03:59):
wilder in South Texas that die from exposure to the heat,
to the elements, all the dead people as a result
of lax border policies. More people have died as a
result of lax border policies, especially under the Bind administration,
than any harm that has come to this country by
some kook, some crazy veteran or maybe even active veteran,
(04:23):
active service member in this country. It's important to put
everything in perspective. And with the Trump administration coming in,
perhaps I'm thinking Tom Holman has the right mindset. Or
let's do the internal investigator, let's do the subject. You know,
they do this at the CIA, I believe they still
do it.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Or they do this at the FBI, where.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
They have regular reviews of the agents to make sure
that they're not being bribed. They move people around, make
sure they're not being bribed, they're being influenced, being forced
into criminal activit by someone to being black male.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
They do these these interviews.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Maybe it's time that in our military as we need
to clean up the military and get rid of the
DEI appointments, get rid of these men that are addressing
women that are leading the military. Try to evaluate the
mindset of the military, do a better job of that.
In taking care of our veterans, our present military members
(05:26):
and our veterans, and finally commit to having a fighting
force that's ready to answer the call when necessary. Tom
Holman his comments, of course confirming that this Islamic terrorist
in New Orleans, he took his truck, killed fourteen people
that you know, it's in the military, came from the army.
(05:46):
But as you heard of that cut, it's time to
make an assessment that was going on. And I'm reminded
of a comment by a friend of mine in front
of the stations here in South Texas. He's a professor
at Saint Mary's Universityjeffrey Atticott, doctor Jeffrey Atticott, who has
been studying Islamic terrorism since the beginning and since two
(06:07):
thousand and one, he set up an institute up in
Central Texas, up in San Antonio to study all these
Under the Trump administration, is important to again emphasize who
the real enemy of ourn't nation is is not white supremacist.
It's not white racist. That is the boogeyman that the
(06:28):
Biden administration try to create and distract everybody from the
FBI and federal authorities have been going after the wrong people.
For several years now, they've been going after Christians, after
concerned parents that want to attend school board meetings. They've
been going after a Lord knows how many hours and
how many millions of dollars have been spent in investigations
(06:52):
into the January sixth individuals, grandmas and business people and
patriots who simply wanted to pause the process in January sixth,
four years ago because they had legitimate questions a suspicious
activity during the election, the COVID election, the election that
(07:15):
you know, I don't trust that it was anywhere fool
proof compared to previous elections. It's not one hundred percent
fullL proof. But man, with all the rules that were
relaxing in many stays, the patriots has showed up to
Washington and foolishly they even though they were waved in,
they walked, they were trespassing, and the FBI and the
(07:36):
Justice Department they went down hard on all these people.
They sent them away. I think the first thing the
President Trump needs to do when he gets into office
is to pardon the overwhelming majority of all individuals who
were there on January sixth inside the Capitol walking around
trespassing for US for whatever reason they were in there,
either they were waved in or somebody opened the door
and maybe a cop said hey, come on in. They
(07:58):
were just walking around. Which, by the way, Liz Cheney
receiving a medal from Joe Biden, my goodness, that is rich.
That's another middle finger to the American people. Liz Cheney,
the liar, Liz Cheney, though the one suppressed all this information,
all this video, all this testimony from public review, and
(08:22):
created a narrative to tried to convince the American people
that Donald Trump, he was involved in an insurrection, the
Capitol riots was an insurrection from the J six Committee. Yes,
she receiving a medal from Joe Biden for this, just
a middle finger from Joe Biden to the American people.
(08:45):
The enemy of this country are the Islamic radicals who
attacked us on two thousand one, and attacked us even
before that, nineteen ninety three, the first World Trade Center attack,
the USS call embassy attacks, numerous other times nine to eleven.
We didn't learn anything from that. Who the enemy is,
who the wet dream that they have to kill Americas,
(09:08):
to be head Americans, to throw a nuclear bomb at America,
that's the real enemy. Our friend Jeffrey Attica from Saint
Mary's University. Again, the incident that took place with isis
this isis attacker in New Orleans. It proves once and
for all that the radical Islamic extremists that is the
enemy of American under Donald Trump. I hope and pray
(09:29):
that Tom Holman and company they're able to help us refocus.
Speaker 4 (09:34):

Speaker 3 (10:34):
Okay, so let's do some headlines.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Deeple go ahead, and now all of the news you
would probably miss.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
It's time for Dana's quick five.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
I say, let capitalism be capitalism. Look check this out,
President Biden blocking the proposed purchase of US Steel. Now,
I recall an interview on this issue of how big
the steel production industry is in our country is. Of course,
it's not what it used to be a century ago.
But US Steel is only one of many players. It's
(11:07):
only a small group compared to the many players and
producers that we have in our country and the sources
of steel. So President Joe Biden, and this is something
that Donald Trump likely would have done as well. This
is not the poop poo Joe Biden, but also Donald Trump.
You know he he's a more pro union guy, very
populist in the America first mindset.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Yet probably what side with Joe Biden on this one.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I'm just saying because I've got I get the impression
that that's where Donald Trump would be president. Joe Biden
blocked the proposed purchase of US Steel. It was a
fifteen billion dollar deal. Of course they can do the
Sign of the crossades national security issues only I don't know.
They just they need the cash at US Steel, And
I'm sure the Union's gotten the way I suspect that
(11:53):
they did gotten the way of this.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Hey, we need to protect the country.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
No look, in the event of a nasty showdown war,
just go Venezuela style.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Nationalize everything, doesn't matter where comes from. Japanese own, this
doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Is like in Venezuela or US company's own, these car makers, Oh,
it doesn't matter. We're going to nationalized sam in the
inventative emergency, you know, with the power, with the power
of the state, centralized state, they nationalize everything anyway. So
Joe Biden, she flushed that knee pond Steel deal down
down the toilet. The US Surgeon General, warning about a
(12:27):
link between alcohol and cancer, wants a label on it.
Doctor vimcmurphy say, put a label on alcohol. The more
alcohol you consume, the greater the chance of cancer, he said.
And as far as the better diets, according to the
US News World Report, the top diets if you want
to lose some weight lif healthy the Mediterranean diet, followed
by the Dash diet. I'm Sergio Sanchez. You're listening to

Speaker 2 (14:02):
It was a write up and daily signal from Kerrie Sheffield,
senior policy analyst with independent woman's voice. This new Trump
administration has a chance to shake up the White House
press pool. I found that fascinating. Let's do it, Carrie.
Where do we start on this? It's the Correspondent Press Group,
that organization up in DC that makes decision on where
(14:25):
to sit people from WAPPO and ABC and CBS and
all that. Right, those are the people that are calling
the shots. They don't have right to do that, do that.
I mean, this is federal property. This is a White
House Press Briefing. I mean, can you explain how all
that works up in DC?
Speaker 5 (14:37):
Yeah, So it's an interesting legal question, and it's something
that the Trump administration was very interested in, and they
took a respectful approach and a hopeful approach, and the media,
of course, the liberal media at the White House Correspondence
Association responded very poorly and did everything they could to
attack Trump. And the last year of the first term administration,
(15:01):
I was a journalist in the White House Press Briefing
Room and I was only invited because I was a
guest of Kaylee Mcanenny, the Press Secretary. I was not
a member of the White House Correspondence Association, and I
was granted access. I was a reporter for just the
News dot com, which is John Solomon outlet. And Chanelle
(15:23):
Rione from What American News. We were allowed in as
a guest of the Press Secretary. And just through this
dynamic that Chanelle had applied to join the White House
Correspondence Association and was rejected. And so basically the history
of the White House Correspondence Association, which is every year
they have the Big Dinner, and that dinner is now
(15:45):
used to attack Trump at all costs. This group is
a outside nonprofit and just by courtesy, for decades, the
White House Press Office has granted basically control of who's
allowed in the press room and who gets to sit where,
Who is granted basically access to the leader of the
(16:08):
free world. And what was so striking to me my
first press conference when I was in there with President Trump,
I wasn't allowed a seat. I had to stand in
the aisle in the back with Chanelle. She had to
do the same things. And it was striking because both
of us asked Trump questions that were substantive. Chanel asked
a question about Iranian foreign policy. I asked a question
(16:30):
about Hong Kong. I had just done one of the
last interviews with Jimmy Laive, the Hong Kong billionaire before
he was imprisoned, And I asked Trump about the protesters
in Hong Kong and about Jimmy Lai. And then I
believe she was with the NBC News and she was
seated in a plumb location, in a seat on the
front row, I believe, and she asked a question about QAnon.
(16:53):
I thought, how ironic it fit legitimate establishment legacy media,
NBC or whoever it was on the front row. Who
has the seat and all of the trappings in the
good old boys club or in her case, good old
girls club, whatever, the stuffy establishment, elitist, out of touch,
(17:15):
not understanding the voice of the people. She's asking about
an internet conspiracy theory. And to the reason she's doing
it is because she wants to drag the president down
and she wants to make him look bad. And I'm
here and one American News is here asking substantive questions
because we want answers for our people and we want
(17:40):
to move forward. And what's interesting is that the people
in the room as it currently stands, we see it
over and over. It is not proportionate to the voice
of the people. And so I find it rich that
the Washington Post, for example, their motto is democracy dies
in darkness. Well, the root order democracy is the most
(18:01):
and the most means people. And if half of the
people are not represented in the press room, then you
are failing. You are dying. You are making democracy dye
in darkness, Washington Posts, because you are twisting and you
are not representing the voice of the people. And they've
come after the Washington Post has come after my group
in an independent women's form, an independent women's voice, which
(18:23):
we take as a badge and honor. But it's unfortunate
because this causes severe mistrust and distrust and decline in
our social fabric and social capital because of the way
the media is so destructive and so out of touch.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Carrie Sheffield, Senior policy analyst, Independent Woman's Voice.
Speaker 5 (18:45):
The Trump press team has an opportunity here. We've seen
some signals that they want to and Shaan Spicer, God
blessed him. He started that process. He allowed for the
first time guides questions and remote questions into the press
room from outlets that were not here, that weren't in
the swamp, and so he was getting people in who were,
(19:07):
you know, bloggers and non traditional, but getting people in
the room who are non traditional and having more open
access to conservative voices to be proportionate if we're roughly
in a fifty to fifty country, but it's not that
way in the press room.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (19:22):
So now there's some.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Balance, and there is more balance now over in the market,
and the eyeballs and the ears have been moving toward
a more independent minded and conservative minded and liberty minded press.
We have more outlets now and more sources, and thank
god for Elon Muskin X that they've been able to
grow exponentially there and express themselves without being you know,
(19:47):
off boarded and denied revenue sources. News Max is growing
one American network. As you mentioned, who comes to my
daily wire Blaze, I got your article, you write up
your opinion, pigs on on daily signal, They're all over
the place. I would argue that if you add up
those numbers like you're saying, man, you got more than
half of the American public that are going online. See
(20:11):
the number one source for news is onlines, the platforms.
People going on x and going online to seek news
information because they don't trust the low rated leftist liars,
the propaganda peddlers at MSNBC, the clueless News Network and
ABC News shooting themselves in the foot finally proving they're
leftist Marxist bias going after Trump, the attacks on him.
(20:35):
They completely crapt on any legitimacy that they have. It's
the market is speaking and people are moving towards the
new independent, liberty minded and conservative minded press. Those people
should be at the front of the line, front row
in that pressureroom.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
That's how do we make that happen.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
Well, that's what's going to be interesting because there were
two journalists and the Trump years who sued the White
House because they the Trump White House had revoked their
press axis and the Trump courts lost in court. That
was Jim Acosta from CNN, and then a reporter was
a Playboy. But the thing is I and the piece
(21:17):
that you mentioned, the Daily Signal piece that I looked
at this I interviewed Hans von Spaskovski, who is a
legal expert. He said he believed the case would have
been one the cases would have been one on appeal,
but he recommended that when it comes to revoking passes
or he said, the problem was more about the initial
(21:39):
access or the initial critics that were given and then
being very clear on the standards of how they would
be revoked. And so that's really where the legal battle
is going to be. But ultimately, at the end of
the day, as you mentioned at the top of our conversation,
the White House press breaking room is a government property
(22:02):
and it's no sense that an outside, private, nonprofit would
be dictating who is allowed in that room. And I
am all for freedom of the press. I mean, I'm
a journalist by training. That was my journalism degree. I've
worked in journalism in one way or another for almost
twenty years, and I support freedom of the press, but
(22:25):
at the same time, not allowing someone onto government property
is not the same thing as stopping or shutting down
or in the case of big tech, completely stifling you know,
through algorithms and bias and things like that. But again,
those are private companies, So it's all of this is
(22:47):
up for debate in the course, but I think that
we will see the Trump administration do more there. Chanel
re owned from one American news how I mentioned she
has spearheaded and created a separate non off it to
be a competitor to the White House Corsepondence Association. So
there had been some talk that the White House would
(23:07):
recognize both credentialing bodies. That's the way there would be
more compared competition. So we'll see what happens that. I
think there was a lot of exciting welcome.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
And I do hope things get shaken up. Look, there
are influencers who have more eyeballs. There's local TV stations
and big markets that have more eyeballs than MSNBC at
any given hour or CNN for that matter, that they've
just lost their audience, maybe based on ratings or maybe
even some influencers that have big following. Those people need
(23:40):
to have staff sitting there. Lord knows, are getting paid
for all all the attention that they get online. But
this is the time to shake things up, and I
do hope it happens under this administration, and whatever you
can do to make it happen. We wish you luck
carry and I appreciate your time today and keep in touch.
I appreciate your joining us today on the Data Show.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
They do these these interviews.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Maybe it's time that in our military as we need
to clean up the military and get rid of the
DEI appointments, get rid of these men that are addressing
women that are leading the military. Try to evaluate the
mindset of the military, do a better job of that.
In taking care of our veterans, our present military members
(05:26):
and our veterans, and finally commit to having a fighting
force that's ready to answer the call when necessary. Tom
Holman his comments, of course confirming that this Islamic terrorist
in New Orleans, he took his truck, killed fourteen people
that you know, it's in the military, came from the army.
(05:46):
But as you heard of that cut, it's time to
make an assessment that was going on. And I'm reminded
of a comment by a friend of mine in front
of the stations here in South Texas. He's a professor
at Saint Mary's Universityjeffrey Atticott, doctor Jeffrey Atticott, who has
been studying Islamic terrorism since the beginning and since two
(06:07):
thousand and one, he set up an institute up in
Central Texas, up in San Antonio to study all these
Under the Trump administration, is important to again emphasize who
the real enemy of ourn't nation is is not white supremacist.
It's not white racist. That is the boogeyman that the
(06:28):
Biden administration try to create and distract everybody from the
FBI and federal authorities have been going after the wrong people.
For several years now, they've been going after Christians, after
concerned parents that want to attend school board meetings. They've
been going after a Lord knows how many hours and
how many millions of dollars have been spent in investigations
(06:52):
into the January sixth individuals, grandmas and business people and
patriots who simply wanted to pause the process in January sixth,
four years ago because they had legitimate questions a suspicious
activity during the election, the COVID election, the election that
(07:15):
you know, I don't trust that it was anywhere fool
proof compared to previous elections. It's not one hundred percent
fullL proof. But man, with all the rules that were
relaxing in many stays, the patriots has showed up to
Washington and foolishly they even though they were waved in,
they walked, they were trespassing, and the FBI and the
(07:36):
Justice Department they went down hard on all these people.
They sent them away. I think the first thing the
President Trump needs to do when he gets into office
is to pardon the overwhelming majority of all individuals who
were there on January sixth inside the Capitol walking around
trespassing for US for whatever reason they were in there,
either they were waved in or somebody opened the door
and maybe a cop said hey, come on in. They
(07:58):
were just walking around. Which, by the way, Liz Cheney
receiving a medal from Joe Biden, my goodness, that is rich.
That's another middle finger to the American people. Liz Cheney,
the liar, Liz Cheney, though the one suppressed all this information,
all this video, all this testimony from public review, and
(08:22):
created a narrative to tried to convince the American people
that Donald Trump, he was involved in an insurrection, the
Capitol riots was an insurrection from the J six Committee. Yes,
she receiving a medal from Joe Biden for this, just
a middle finger from Joe Biden to the American people.
(08:45):
The enemy of this country are the Islamic radicals who
attacked us on two thousand one, and attacked us even
before that, nineteen ninety three, the first World Trade Center attack,
the USS call embassy attacks, numerous other times nine to eleven.
We didn't learn anything from that. Who the enemy is,
who the wet dream that they have to kill Americas,
(09:08):
to be head Americans, to throw a nuclear bomb at America,
that's the real enemy. Our friend Jeffrey Attica from Saint
Mary's University. Again, the incident that took place with isis
this isis attacker in New Orleans. It proves once and
for all that the radical Islamic extremists that is the
enemy of American under Donald Trump. I hope and pray
(09:29):
that Tom Holman and company they're able to help us refocus.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Imagine a young woman facing an underplanned pregnancy, feeling alone
and unsure of what to do, and she's searching for hope.
And that's where Preborn Ministries comes in. You can make
a difference. For just twenty eight dollars. Your generosity can
be the key to a mother choosing life for her baby,
and with your gift, you will receive the story of
a mom who chose life as well as the ultrasound
image of her precious baby. And like the story of
(09:57):
Kelsey who found preborn and after hearing her baby he's heartbeat,
she chose life. Consider making a larger life changing donation
of five, ten or fifteen thousand dollars. Maximize your gift
that can help women in unplanned pregnancies receive ultrasounds and
even help place an ultrasound machine in a women's center.
Donate for the gift of life. Just style pound two
(10:18):
fifty and say the keyword baby. That's pound or hashtag
two fifty baby, or visit preborn dot com slash data
to donate online. Every contribution counts. So again, that's pound
two fifty, say the word baby or donate securely at
preborn dot com slash data.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Okay, so let's do some headlines.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Deeple go ahead, and now all of the news you
would probably miss.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
It's time for Dana's quick five.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
I say, let capitalism be capitalism. Look check this out,
President Biden blocking the proposed purchase of US Steel. Now,
I recall an interview on this issue of how big
the steel production industry is in our country is. Of course,
it's not what it used to be a century ago.
But US Steel is only one of many players. It's
(11:07):
only a small group compared to the many players and
producers that we have in our country and the sources
of steel. So President Joe Biden, and this is something
that Donald Trump likely would have done as well. This
is not the poop poo Joe Biden, but also Donald Trump.
You know he he's a more pro union guy, very
populist in the America first mindset.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Yet probably what side with Joe Biden on this one.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I'm just saying because I've got I get the impression
that that's where Donald Trump would be president. Joe Biden
blocked the proposed purchase of US Steel. It was a
fifteen billion dollar deal. Of course they can do the
Sign of the crossades national security issues only I don't know.
They just they need the cash at US Steel, And
I'm sure the Union's gotten the way I suspect that
(11:53):
they did gotten the way of this.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Hey, we need to protect the country.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
No look, in the event of a nasty showdown war,
just go Venezuela style.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Nationalize everything, doesn't matter where comes from. Japanese own, this
doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Is like in Venezuela or US company's own, these car makers, Oh,
it doesn't matter. We're going to nationalized sam in the
inventative emergency, you know, with the power, with the power
of the state, centralized state, they nationalize everything anyway. So
Joe Biden, she flushed that knee pond Steel deal down
down the toilet. The US Surgeon General, warning about a
(12:27):
link between alcohol and cancer, wants a label on it.
Doctor vimcmurphy say, put a label on alcohol. The more
alcohol you consume, the greater the chance of cancer, he said.
And as far as the better diets, according to the
US News World Report, the top diets if you want
to lose some weight lif healthy the Mediterranean diet, followed
by the Dash diet. I'm Sergio Sanchez. You're listening to

(13:55):

Speaker 2 (14:02):
It was a write up and daily signal from Kerrie Sheffield,
senior policy analyst with independent woman's voice. This new Trump
administration has a chance to shake up the White House
press pool. I found that fascinating. Let's do it, Carrie.
Where do we start on this? It's the Correspondent Press Group,
that organization up in DC that makes decision on where
(14:25):
to sit people from WAPPO and ABC and CBS and
all that. Right, those are the people that are calling
the shots. They don't have right to do that, do that.
I mean, this is federal property. This is a White
House Press Briefing. I mean, can you explain how all
that works up in DC?
Speaker 5 (14:37):
Yeah, So it's an interesting legal question, and it's something
that the Trump administration was very interested in, and they
took a respectful approach and a hopeful approach, and the media,
of course, the liberal media at the White House Correspondence
Association responded very poorly and did everything they could to
attack Trump. And the last year of the first term administration,
(15:01):
I was a journalist in the White House Press Briefing
Room and I was only invited because I was a
guest of Kaylee Mcanenny, the Press Secretary. I was not
a member of the White House Correspondence Association, and I
was granted access. I was a reporter for just the
News dot com, which is John Solomon outlet. And Chanelle
(15:23):
Rione from What American News. We were allowed in as
a guest of the Press Secretary. And just through this
dynamic that Chanelle had applied to join the White House
Correspondence Association and was rejected. And so basically the history
of the White House Correspondence Association, which is every year
they have the Big Dinner, and that dinner is now
(15:45):
used to attack Trump at all costs. This group is
a outside nonprofit and just by courtesy, for decades, the
White House Press Office has granted basically control of who's
allowed in the press room and who gets to sit where,
Who is granted basically access to the leader of the
(16:08):
free world. And what was so striking to me my
first press conference when I was in there with President Trump,
I wasn't allowed a seat. I had to stand in
the aisle in the back with Chanelle. She had to
do the same things. And it was striking because both
of us asked Trump questions that were substantive. Chanel asked
a question about Iranian foreign policy. I asked a question
(16:30):
about Hong Kong. I had just done one of the
last interviews with Jimmy Laive, the Hong Kong billionaire before
he was imprisoned, And I asked Trump about the protesters
in Hong Kong and about Jimmy Lai. And then I
believe she was with the NBC News and she was
seated in a plumb location, in a seat on the
front row, I believe, and she asked a question about QAnon.
(16:53):
I thought, how ironic it fit legitimate establishment legacy media,
NBC or whoever it was on the front row. Who
has the seat and all of the trappings in the
good old boys club or in her case, good old
girls club, whatever, the stuffy establishment, elitist, out of touch,
(17:15):
not understanding the voice of the people. She's asking about
an internet conspiracy theory. And to the reason she's doing
it is because she wants to drag the president down
and she wants to make him look bad. And I'm
here and one American News is here asking substantive questions
because we want answers for our people and we want
(17:40):
to move forward. And what's interesting is that the people
in the room as it currently stands, we see it
over and over. It is not proportionate to the voice
of the people. And so I find it rich that
the Washington Post, for example, their motto is democracy dies
in darkness. Well, the root order democracy is the most
(18:01):
and the most means people. And if half of the
people are not represented in the press room, then you
are failing. You are dying. You are making democracy dye
in darkness, Washington Posts, because you are twisting and you
are not representing the voice of the people. And they've
come after the Washington Post has come after my group
in an independent women's form, an independent women's voice, which
(18:23):
we take as a badge and honor. But it's unfortunate
because this causes severe mistrust and distrust and decline in
our social fabric and social capital because of the way
the media is so destructive and so out of touch.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Carrie Sheffield, Senior policy analyst, Independent Woman's Voice.
Speaker 5 (18:45):
The Trump press team has an opportunity here. We've seen
some signals that they want to and Shaan Spicer, God
blessed him. He started that process. He allowed for the
first time guides questions and remote questions into the press
room from outlets that were not here, that weren't in
the swamp, and so he was getting people in who were,
(19:07):
you know, bloggers and non traditional, but getting people in
the room who are non traditional and having more open
access to conservative voices to be proportionate if we're roughly
in a fifty to fifty country, but it's not that
way in the press room.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (19:22):
So now there's some.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Balance, and there is more balance now over in the market,
and the eyeballs and the ears have been moving toward
a more independent minded and conservative minded and liberty minded press.
We have more outlets now and more sources, and thank
god for Elon Muskin X that they've been able to
grow exponentially there and express themselves without being you know,
(19:47):
off boarded and denied revenue sources. News Max is growing
one American network. As you mentioned, who comes to my
daily wire Blaze, I got your article, you write up
your opinion, pigs on on daily signal, They're all over
the place. I would argue that if you add up
those numbers like you're saying, man, you got more than
half of the American public that are going online. See
(20:11):
the number one source for news is onlines, the platforms.
People going on x and going online to seek news
information because they don't trust the low rated leftist liars,
the propaganda peddlers at MSNBC, the clueless News Network and
ABC News shooting themselves in the foot finally proving they're
leftist Marxist bias going after Trump, the attacks on him.
(20:35):
They completely crapt on any legitimacy that they have. It's
the market is speaking and people are moving towards the
new independent, liberty minded and conservative minded press. Those people
should be at the front of the line, front row
in that pressureroom.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
That's how do we make that happen.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
Well, that's what's going to be interesting because there were
two journalists and the Trump years who sued the White
House because they the Trump White House had revoked their
press axis and the Trump courts lost in court. That
was Jim Acosta from CNN, and then a reporter was
a Playboy. But the thing is I and the piece
(21:17):
that you mentioned, the Daily Signal piece that I looked
at this I interviewed Hans von Spaskovski, who is a
legal expert. He said he believed the case would have
been one the cases would have been one on appeal,
but he recommended that when it comes to revoking passes
or he said, the problem was more about the initial
(21:39):
access or the initial critics that were given and then
being very clear on the standards of how they would
be revoked. And so that's really where the legal battle
is going to be. But ultimately, at the end of
the day, as you mentioned at the top of our conversation,
the White House press breaking room is a government property
(22:02):
and it's no sense that an outside, private, nonprofit would
be dictating who is allowed in that room. And I
am all for freedom of the press. I mean, I'm
a journalist by training. That was my journalism degree. I've
worked in journalism in one way or another for almost
twenty years, and I support freedom of the press, but
(22:25):
at the same time, not allowing someone onto government property
is not the same thing as stopping or shutting down
or in the case of big tech, completely stifling you know,
through algorithms and bias and things like that. But again,
those are private companies, So it's all of this is
(22:47):
up for debate in the course, but I think that
we will see the Trump administration do more there. Chanel
re owned from one American news how I mentioned she
has spearheaded and created a separate non off it to
be a competitor to the White House Corsepondence Association. So
there had been some talk that the White House would
(23:07):
recognize both credentialing bodies. That's the way there would be
more compared competition. So we'll see what happens that. I
think there was a lot of exciting welcome.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
And I do hope things get shaken up. Look, there
are influencers who have more eyeballs. There's local TV stations
and big markets that have more eyeballs than MSNBC at
any given hour or CNN for that matter, that they've
just lost their audience, maybe based on ratings or maybe
even some influencers that have big following. Those people need
(23:40):
to have staff sitting there. Lord knows, are getting paid
for all all the attention that they get online. But
this is the time to shake things up, and I
do hope it happens under this administration, and whatever you
can do to make it happen. We wish you luck
carry and I appreciate your time today and keep in touch.
