    Could have been an event that gained him a ton of attention but I think in general he’s A. a Jew and B. a Billionaire and C. A liberal donor.

    Check, check, check. The right wing has always had its roots in racism since Nixon and before that with southern oligarchs going way back. This isn’t some new thing. We’ve been dealing with the antisemitism and racism in general for forever. It’s not going away and is likely to have a resurgence in power soon assuming Trump wins the election and southern states and the current right wing billionaire oligarchs put their foot down on our necks for ruling laws and norms that govern our lives the next 50 years.

    Not much we can do about it if 51% of the country this November actively votes to give power to these people who will never allow it to be lost back in democratic means. This country has a long history of making things harder on ourselves then needed.

    Soros is an American citizen. So, isn't that just an American using his money to engage in free speech?

    But it turns out that Hansen closed his own YouTube account, casting himself again as a victim, this time of corporate censorship, a well-established pattern for right-wing actors



    Tenet Contributor Tayler Hansen Misleads on YouTube Ban (dailydot.com)

    Last week, the Department of Justice indicted two Russians for secretly funneling money to American right-wing video personalities. Shortly after, YouTube cracked down on the entity behind the scheme, Tenet Media, deleting its channel and four others run by owner Lauren Chen.

    The next day, Tayler Hansen, a reporter and former employee of Tenet, announced in a post on X that he had been permanently banned from YouTube.

    “Andddd I just got permanently banned from YouTube,” Hansen wrote in a Sept. 6 X post that garnered over 2.4 million views.

    The text in the notice said a channel of his had been removed, not that he’d been permanently banned.

    “This is 100% targeted and no explanation has been given despite the DOJ Indictment explicitly stating that show hosts and reporters were VICTIMS if the allegations turn out to be true,” Hansen added in a follow-up post.

    In the indictment, the DOJ noted that the personalities Tenet paid—Benny Johnson, Dave Rubin, Tim Pool, Hansen, and others—were unaware of the scheme.

    In their statements, they all dubbed themselves victims of the plot.

    But it turns out that Hansen closed his own YouTube account, casting himself again as a victim, this time of corporate censorship, a well-established pattern for right-wing actors

    In the process, Hansen garnered sympathy and support for his new channel on Rumble, the far-right video platform.

    Since his protestations about big tech overreach, he’s added almost 1,500 followers.

    But big tech didn’t overreach.

    When users try to view his old YouTube videos, they’re hit with a message that belies his grousing.

    “The video is no longer available because the uploader has closed their account,” the page reads. This text is distinct from the one that appears on the videos from the terminated Tenet Media channel that says: “This video is no longer available because the YouTube account associated with this video has been terminated.”

    After the Daily Dot reached out to YouTube to inquire about this discrepancy, a YouTube spokesperson confirmed that Hansen closed his personal account and that it had not been banned.

    “The TaylerUSA channel was deleted by its owner on September 6th,” a YouTube spokesperson wrote in an email that also linked to a public response to Hansen on X which was sent after the Daily Dot inquired about the discrepancy.

    He’s been very busy spreading fake news that Haitian immigrants are eating people’s pet cats. Sound familiar?

    Free speech only applies to right leaning donors and voices.

    Your source looks sketchy as hell. It would take me too long to get comfortable with the credibility of the source before I even bother with the content.

    Sketchy? Moneypox is claimed to be engineered. There are allegations that the vaccine is killing people—17 million global deaths attributed to the COVID vaccine. A quick look shows that Truth Justice is an RFK Jr. and INFOWars enthusiast. Risk of conspiracy theories is pretty high. ATW regularly trusts and shares materials from such sources.

    On repeat: When you consume so much crap, it's hard to tell what's crap or not.

    another ignorant post by CircleTheDrain.

    Steve Mnuchin, who would later become Trump's Secretary of Treasury, owned OneWest Bank,

    Soros had nothing to do w this small regional bank in Calif; he had bigger fishes to fry
    Soros goes after the Central Bank of countries, like the Bank of England.​

    for the education of CircleTheDrain

    OneWest bank was established by Mnuchin and investors to purchase the assets of IndyMac bank, a federal bank, after IndyMac was placed into conservatorship
    under the control of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in July 2008.

    Calif AG, at the time, lacked the legal authority to go after assets of Federal banks​

    Along with her husband, Lauren Chen co-founded Tenet Media, that’s at the heart of the DOJ indictment. These two Canadian citizens weren’t charged as part of the indictment,
    leading people such as MSNBC contributor Andrew Weissman to suggest they may be cooperating with the feds.

    Other MAGA influencers seem a bit nervous about what else may be coming down the pipe.

    One wonders if that has anything to do with an unsealed affidavit released last week alleging a Kremlin-backed agency had nearly 600 U.S.-based influencers in its sights as it waged
    an online-based election manipulation operation in the United States. One can only imagine what the group chats are looking like in MAGA world these days.​
