I'm incredibly excited we've created a new video platform at @Rumblevideo. Along with @TulsiGabbard, @BridgetPhetasy, @SirajAHashmi, @ZaidJilani, @Orf and others, I'm there because, like Substack, it's dedicated not to an ideology or party but to free speech and free discourse.

You can subscribe to my new page here, where I'll continue the in-depth documentary-style System Update programs we had been producing, along with more regular video and live chats for Substack subscribers. It will be a new way to expand our journalism.

The first Rumble video, up shortly, explains why free speech platforms like Substack and Rumble are so vital -- as evidenced by the censorship spate we saw this week on YouTube. I also dissect today's @washingtonpost article on our move there to show how corporate media deceives.

Let me just provide one shocking but common example of what the WPost did. To smear Rumble, they cited *one* "expert" who they presented as an objective scholar.

You know what they concealed? That he's funded by Google, Facebook, YouTube & the US Govt!

Think about what the Post did. They emphasized Rumble's investors because they presumably thought that was important. Then they presented an "expert" to trash Rumble as a sewer of lies without disclosing that he's funded by Big Tech -- Rumble's competitors -- and the State Dept.

This is the what corporate media does *constantly*. This Post article on our Rumble move is a case study in their deceitful tactics. That's why my first video explores.

And this is why the public has validly decided not to trust them, and why platforms like Rumble are vital.

As for the journalists working themselves into a rage today about Rumble and our move there -- spouting lies about the platform -- the new @ContraPoints video -- brilliant as usual -- explores "envy" and how it expresses itself. I highly recommend it.

Apologies to @0rf -- the brilliant and hilarious videographer whose work became known during the 2016 Bernie campaign -- for tagging him wrong. Along with him and the others, we're also moving with @ShantMM, sharing a channel with @ZaidJilani, and @SirajAHashmi's Habibi Bros.

I'm excited by this new platform for doing our journalism. It won't supplant what we're doing at Substack, but is designed to supplement and expand it, while supporting one of the few large free speech platforms left. Here's @rumblevideo's statement:

I'll post the first video as soon as it's up: within the hour Along with exploring YouTube's increasingly aggressive censorship spate this week -- including suspending @RandPaul -- I'm amazed at what the WashPost did, but as I show, the deceitful techniques they used are *common.

One of the most bizarre things to see are corporate journalists trying to malign Rumble by pointing to investments it received 8 years after its founding.

Some doing that include people who work for Jeff Bezos, or the Sulzberger family, or the Comcast Corp. or Warner Media.

Two key points to understand about corporate journalists:

1) They are the leading advocates for online censorship and against a free internet: think about that.

2) They hate most the journalists who succeed more but who they can't control. That's where the rage comes from.

One last lie from the Post to mention. I don't claim to be a victim of censorship or to have been silenced. Others have.

I guess it's hard for some in media to understand, but it's possible to denounce and work against injustices even if you're not personally victimzed by them.

I didn't just start denouncing censorship and speech policing "in recent months." It's been a cause of mine for decades -- as a lawyer and journalist.

Like the work I did against War on Terror abuses, you can denounce mistreatment of others without implying you're also a victim.

There's a lot more to this Post article that's fascinating to dissect -- not because it's some exceptionally misleading propaganda but because it's so common.

Note how almost every paragraph equates "free speech" with danger. That's their core belief:

My first video on Rumble: on why the spate of censorship from Big Tech monopolies the last few months is particularly menacing, why it's vital to support free speech platforms, and how today's WPost article perfectly illustrates corporate media deceit:
