    DebateGate: Was Biden Sabotaged at CNN's Presidential Debate?
    Jul 8 2024
    In a shocking new analysis, journalist and media producer Zev Shalev alleges that Joe Biden may have been deliberately sabotaged during last week's CNN presidential debate against Donald Trump. Key Issues Unusual debate format and pacing that seemed designed to disorient Biden Suspicious lighting differences between Biden's and Trump's podiums Possible audio manipulation of Biden's voice, stripping out mid-range frequencies Questions about Biden's mysterious "cold" and whether he was given something to impair his performance Shalev argues these factors combined to make Biden appear older, frailer and less coherent than he is. He calls for an independent investigation into CNN's production choices and whether foul play was involved. "Before Democrats rush to replace Biden at the top of the ticket, we need answers about what happened that night," Shalev states. He urges viewers to be skeptical of the "Biden is too old" narrative, which he links to ongoing Russian disinformation campaigns. The full analysis is available on Shalev's Narativ podcast. Show Notes: Zev Shalev alleges Joe Biden may have been sabotaged at the CNN debate Suspicious production choices in lighting, audio, and format benefited Trump Calls for investigation before any talk of replacing Biden as nominee Warns "Biden is too old" narrative plays into Russian disinformation A full breakdown of evidence on the latest Narativ podcast episode Learn more about your ad choices.

At the heart of this struggle are Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, U.S. President Joe Biden, and a cast of global power players, including former President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. As I discussed in my post yesterday, the relationship between Netanyahu and Biden is a critical factor, with the upcoming U.S. elections adding another layer of complexity. The global war on democracy is being waged on multiple fronts, from the newly announced long-term U.S.-Ukraine security agreement to the presence of Trump loyalists in Congress and Netanyahu's possible manipulative strategies. One big question remains: Is Netanyahu leveraging the hostages for political gain, perhaps to influence the U.S. elections in favor of anti-democratic forces? __________________________________ "I will not bow" is Joe Biden's secret slogan for the 2024 campaign.

  • Bannon Behind Bars as Biden Honors D-Day Heroes

    Bannon Behind Bars as Biden Honors D-Day Heroes
    Jun 7 2024
    Donald Trump's former advisor, Steve Bannon has been ordered to report to prison by July 1 to serve a four-month sentence for contempt of Congress. Bannon was convicted for failing to comply with a subpoena from the January 6 committee. As Shalev notes, Bannon briefed his associates in China just days before January 6 about Trump's plans to declare victory. Bannon also faces separate charges related to the “We Build the Wall" campaign in New York. The Department of Justice is currently probing into a significant issue of potential illegal price fixing by corporate landlords. These landlords are allegedly using RealPage software to coordinate higher rental prices. The practice, particularly prevalent in key 2024 swing states like Arizona, Florida, and Georgia, is a major concern. Rising rents, driven by such practices, contribute to many voters' inflation and cost of living concerns. The episode featured a significant event-President Biden's stirring speech commemorating the 80th anniversary of D-Day in Normandy. In his speech, Biden paid tribute to the immense bravery and sacrifice of the Allied troops who turned the tide of World War 2. He also underscored the importance of alliances and issued a warning that democracy is under threat today from autocrats and dictators. Importantly, Biden pledged continued U.S. and NATO support for Ukraine in its fight against Russia's invasion. Overall, the stories covered underscore the high stakes and critical threats to democracy as the 2024 election approaches. From exposing the January 6 insurrection to combating authoritarian aggression abroad, defending freedom requires constant vigilance. As Biden eloquently stated in Normandy, it is now our generation's duty to meet this moment and preserve democracy for the future. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • Crime and Consequence: Trump Guilty of All 34 Counts In 'Hush' Money Case

    Crime and Consequence: Trump Guilty of All 34 Counts In 'Hush' Money Case
    Jun 2 2024
    “Today, we witness the culmination of years of anticipation and legal scrutiny. Former President Donald Trump has been found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records and was convicted in a state court—a day many thought we'd never see.” The Verdict Donald Trump has been found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records. This verdict underscores the gravity of his actions, despite his defense team's efforts to challenge the credibility of key witnesses like Michael Cohen. The jury's unanimous decision is a resounding affirmation of the strength and integrity of the prosecution's case. “It means that the prosecution did an incredible job, which we all thought while looking from the outside in.” This sentiment was echoed throughout the proceedings, as Trump's defense seemed unprepared to counter the overwhelming evidence against him. The former President of the United States is now a convicted felon. Many of us suspected the conviction was imminent, and today it is a reality. Trump’s defense team will undoubtedly appeal every aspect of this case, yet the facts remain clear: the former President of the United States is now a convicted felon. The charges are significant, not just in their number but in what they represent—the culmination of an orchestrated effort to subvert democracy. This isn’t just a federal case; it's about the integrity of our electoral process. The Impact on Democracy There was a time when right-wing media outlets such as Fox News could downplay Trump's actions. However, this guilty verdict strips away any pretext that these were partisan attacks. This is more than just about falsifying business records—this is about protecting the sanctity of the American democratic process. “This is really what we've been saying on my show recently, that subverting democracy is what we're seeing here. The 2016 election was manipulated through illegal means, including Trump's payment of $130,000 in hush money to Stormy Daniels—a fact the jury found crucial in their decision.” Michael Cohen's Vindication Trump's former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, can finally feel vindicated. Cohen's reputation has been dragged through the mud, yet this verdict provides some measure of redemption. His testimony was instrumental in making the case against his former boss, proving beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump orchestrated this conspiracy to manipulate the 2016 election. The 2016 Election and Its Consequences The repercussions of Trump's illegal activities were felt globally. His presidency resulted in numerous tragedies, including the mishandling of the coronavirus pandemic, frayed international alliances, and a Supreme Court packed with justices whose legitimacy is now in question. The conviction brings to light the insidious manner in which Trump stole the 2016 election. By paying $130,000 in hush money, Trump ensured that voters did not learn of his affair with Stormy Daniels, thus swaying the election in his favor. These actions weren't just felonies but a subversion of our democracy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • Breaking News: Prosecutors Accuse Donald Trump Of Subverting Democracy

    Breaking News: Prosecutors Accuse Donald Trump Of Subverting Democracy
    May 30 2024
    As the jury deliberates, prosecutors say Donald Trump was engaged in subverting democracy when he paid Stormy Daniels $130,000 in hush money. Prosecutors claim that Trump and his associates engaged in a scheme to manipulate the flow of information to voters during the 2016 presidential election. In this powerful and thought-provoking episode, we delve into the complex web of connections between influential figures such as Mohammed bin Salman, David Pecker, Donald Trump, and Jeff Bezos, highlighting the weaponization of personal scandals as a tool to manipulate elections. Zev also draws attention to the alarming rise of what he terms the "enemies of democracy," a coalition of nations, religious groups, wealthy individuals, special interests, and extremist groups working to undermine democratic institutions. The trial of Donald Trump is not merely about hush money payments but rather about protecting the integrity of elections and ensuring accountability for those in power. We should emphasize the critical importance of the 2024 U.S. presidential election, framing it as a battle for the preservation of freedom and the American way of life against the forces of authoritarianism and foreign influence. Zev also issues a clarion call to his listeners to stand up for truth, remain informed and engaged, and fiercely defend the principles of transparency and democracy in the face of unprecedented threats.
