[00:02.540 --> 00:07.700] On November 15th, 2022, Donald Trump announced he was going to seek the GOP nomination for [00:07.700 --> 00:10.260] president in 2024. [00:10.260 --> 00:13.740] But there was something unusual about the announcement event. [00:13.740 --> 00:16.860] Despite being invited, the media did not show up. [00:16.860 --> 00:19.720] Even right-leaning outlets didn't attend the event. [00:19.720 --> 00:25.220] Can you imagine the media not attending a significant Trump event in 2016 or 17, 18, [00:25.220 --> 00:27.340] 19, or 2020? [00:27.340 --> 00:32.140] But they didn't attend Trump's 2022 candidacy announcement event. [00:32.140 --> 00:33.140] Why is that? [00:33.140 --> 00:37.440] Certainly, we can't write it off to left-leaning anti-Trump bias because even right-leaning [00:37.440 --> 00:40.060] outlets didn't show up. [00:40.060 --> 00:47.060] Something else is going on. [00:47.060 --> 00:58.580] The Dr. Reality Podcast with Dave Champion. [00:58.580 --> 01:00.180] Let's start with this. [01:00.180 --> 01:06.020] One thing no news outlet wants to do is get labeled as an active part of some candidate's [01:06.020 --> 01:07.020] political intrigue. [01:07.020 --> 01:11.860] They certainly want to report on the political intrigue, perhaps even in a positive light, [01:11.860 --> 01:16.340] but they don't want to be labeled as being a participant in a candidate's campaign or [01:16.340 --> 01:19.620] any related machinations related to a campaign. [01:19.620 --> 01:24.100] To go a step further, news outlets do not want to be accused of facilitating a candidate's [01:24.100 --> 01:27.060] unethical or perhaps even illegal conduct. [01:27.060 --> 01:31.280] Again, they certainly want to cover such stories, but never at the expense of being accused [01:31.280 --> 01:34.500] of facilitating unethical or illegal conduct. [01:34.500 --> 01:39.320] If they think by covering a candidate they may be placing themselves in that position, [01:39.320 --> 01:43.820] news outlets will limit themselves to superficial reporting on that candidate. [01:43.820 --> 01:48.060] In other words, the bare minimum and nothing more. [01:48.060 --> 01:52.940] My read on the outlets not sending news crews to Trump's announcement event is the news [01:52.940 --> 01:59.220] industry is doing exactly that concerning Trump, reporting the bare minimum and nothing [01:59.220 --> 02:00.220] more. [02:00.220 --> 02:03.260] The question is, why? [02:03.260 --> 02:07.820] News outlets with public name recognition are all multi-million dollar operations. [02:07.820 --> 02:13.300] As such, they have a lot of resources at their disposal, including experts in various fields. [02:13.300 --> 02:18.740] As Trump started hinting about his big announcement, you can picture-ask the executives of every [02:18.740 --> 02:23.900] significant news organization to hold strategy meetings to discuss how to cover Trump this [02:23.900 --> 02:25.500] time around. [02:25.500 --> 02:29.660] Corporations are typically conservative in their decision-making process, so one of the [02:29.660 --> 02:33.340] things they'd want to consider is whether down the road, based on their coverage of [02:33.340 --> 02:40.180] Trump, they could be accused of having been a party to creating another January 6 or something [02:40.180 --> 02:41.900] worse than that. [02:41.900 --> 02:46.500] The public holds many differing views on why Trump decided to run again, but in the halls [02:46.500 --> 02:50.860] of power, which includes media, corporations, boardrooms, there is concern that Trump is [02:50.860 --> 02:56.620] running because he believes doing so is the only way to avoid trial on multiple violations [02:56.620 --> 03:01.780] of the Espionage Act, obstruction of justice, and perhaps supporting perjury charges. [03:01.780 --> 03:06.220] By the way, as a side note, violating the Espionage Act provisions concerning classified [03:06.220 --> 03:09.860] documents does not mean a person engaged in espionage. [03:10.340 --> 03:14.460] In other words, a grand jury could indict Trump for violating the Espionage Act without [03:14.460 --> 03:16.660] accusing him of espionage. [03:16.660 --> 03:20.980] If it's true that Trump is running to avoid being prosecuted for numerous counts of various [03:20.980 --> 03:25.140] crimes, how would announcing his candidacy accomplish that? [03:25.140 --> 03:28.900] First, it's important to note that Trump's announcement will not stop a grand jury from [03:28.900 --> 03:32.460] indicting him if the grand jury is inclined to do so. [03:32.460 --> 03:36.180] Since Trump's announcement can't stop an indictment, then the next thing in the sequence [03:36.180 --> 03:40.300] of events would be for the government to bring Trump to trial. [03:40.300 --> 03:43.980] It is that step in the process that many in the halls of power believe Trump is attempting [03:43.980 --> 03:49.540] to prevent by his significantly premature announcement of running in 2024. [03:49.540 --> 03:54.060] The concern in the halls of power is that Trump intends to portray any attempt to put [03:54.060 --> 04:00.020] him on trial as a corrupt, politically driven government action taken to stop him from making [04:00.020 --> 04:01.300] America great again. [04:01.300 --> 04:05.980] In other words, he's going to tell his base that just as the 2020 election was stolen [04:05.980 --> 04:10.700] from them, any attempt to put him on trial is an even more egregious plot by the deep [04:10.700 --> 04:16.380] state to steal the 2024 election and they must rise up and stop the government from [04:16.380 --> 04:21.140] destroying America, which will translate into stopping the government from putting him on [04:21.140 --> 04:22.480] trial. [04:22.480 --> 04:27.500] The fear in the halls of power is that hundreds of thousands of his supporters will buy what [04:27.500 --> 04:32.740] Trump is selling and violently attack government buildings and government employees. [04:32.740 --> 04:37.580] The only realistic way to stop that violence will be for the government to apply opposing [04:37.580 --> 04:38.900] violence. [04:38.900 --> 04:42.740] Trump will then characterize the government's use of violence as the government committing [04:42.740 --> 04:45.420] open warfare against the American people. [04:45.420 --> 04:51.660] He'll then tell his supporters it is imperative they defend America by doing whatever is necessary [04:51.660 --> 04:56.020] to show the government there's a price to pay for using violence against God-fearing [04:56.020 --> 04:57.500] Americans. [04:57.500 --> 05:02.180] He'll tell them America can only be saved from leftist tyranny if they act right now [05:02.180 --> 05:03.260] to stop it. [05:03.260 --> 05:07.820] The concern in the halls of power is this scenario may explode into something exponentially [05:07.820 --> 05:13.380] worse than January 6, such as Trump's diehard supporters believing it's time to kick off [05:13.380 --> 05:16.140] a second American civil war. [05:16.140 --> 05:20.900] If there is even a tiny chance of this scenario occurring, media outlets don't want to find [05:20.900 --> 05:27.980] themselves blamed for facilitating it by broadcasting, amplifying Trump's message. [05:27.980 --> 05:32.280] Will they report on things concerning Trump that aren't newsworthy and benign? [05:32.280 --> 05:33.280] They will. [05:33.280 --> 05:38.140] But they're not going to hang on every word spoken by Trump as they did from 2016 through [05:38.140 --> 05:39.260] 2020. [05:39.260 --> 05:43.780] They want to showcase a new paradigm in which politically meaningful events involving Trump [05:43.780 --> 05:45.460] will be reported upon. [05:45.460 --> 05:51.980] But as an example, they will no longer be showing their viewers video of Trump's speeches. [05:51.980 --> 05:56.060] They want to step away from that level of coverage so they establish a track record [05:56.140 --> 06:01.700] of reporting on him as nothing more than one candidate among many for the Republican nomination. [06:01.700 --> 06:06.580] They consider that reduced level of attention to best position themselves to decline to [06:06.580 --> 06:12.020] cover any innuendo-fueled calls he may make for open rebellion as a means of attempting [06:12.020 --> 06:15.800] to stop the federal government from taking him to trial. [06:15.800 --> 06:19.660] Are there developments that could change the media's current position? [06:19.660 --> 06:20.740] You bet. [06:20.740 --> 06:26.140] Number one is if the special prosecutor announced the grand jury declined to indict Trump. [06:26.140 --> 06:29.700] Another would be if Trump goes to trial and is acquitted by a jury. [06:29.700 --> 06:33.820] There is another development that would likely change the media's position. [06:33.820 --> 06:39.140] Now that Elon Musk has reinstated Trump on Twitter, if Trump returns to Twitter, which [06:39.140 --> 06:45.300] I imagine he will, and is communicating with 80 or 90 million people on a daily basis, [06:45.300 --> 06:49.340] there would be little reason for news outlets to refuse to cover Trump's messages that [06:49.340 --> 06:53.180] a significant percentage of the American people would already be getting directly from [06:53.180 --> 06:54.860] the horse's mouth. [06:54.860 --> 06:59.540] Interestingly, Trump isn't the only subject from which the U.S. media has stepped away. [06:59.540 --> 07:03.340] Try to get anyone in the media to discuss the truth of the income tax that Congress [07:03.340 --> 07:07.180] has never imposed the income tax on the ordinary working American. [07:07.180 --> 07:12.620] Let me share a couple of quick stories with you illustrating there is a media blackout [07:12.620 --> 07:13.620] on this subject. [07:13.620 --> 07:19.180] You know, a media blackout in a land of freedom of the press. [07:19.180 --> 07:23.060] Over the almost 13 years income tax shattering the mess has been out. [07:23.060 --> 07:28.100] It has been read by tens of thousands of Americans and has never received a review less than [07:28.100 --> 07:29.920] four out of five stars. [07:29.920 --> 07:35.500] During that same time, several hundred copies have been sent to media personalities asking [07:35.500 --> 07:41.140] them to read it and discuss it on the air, preferably having me on as a guest. [07:41.140 --> 07:44.340] How many media personalities have discussed it on the air? [07:44.340 --> 07:48.020] How many media personalities have called me to be a guest on their show and lay it out [07:48.020 --> 07:50.180] for the American people? [07:50.180 --> 07:52.540] That would be zero. [07:52.540 --> 07:58.340] Hundreds of books sent by hardworking Americans at their own expense to have the media look [07:58.340 --> 08:01.780] at the evidence and bring it forth to the American people. [08:01.780 --> 08:07.460] After all, one major purpose for the free press is to serve as a government watchdog. [08:07.460 --> 08:11.600] The press is supposed to report to the American people when it discovers the government is [08:11.600 --> 08:14.740] lying to the American people and stealing from the American people. [08:15.220 --> 08:20.060] Yet when it comes to the truth of the income tax, the media has a complete blackout on [08:20.060 --> 08:21.060] the subject. [08:21.060 --> 08:25.460] I was recently contacted by a person who wanted to share with me his inside information about [08:25.460 --> 08:30.220] an up-and-coming talk show personality who was recently picked up by a major streaming [08:30.220 --> 08:31.540] service. [08:31.540 --> 08:36.680] In the contract he was required to sign, there was a provision in which he had to specifically [08:36.680 --> 08:40.700] agree not to discuss the income tax. [08:40.700 --> 08:42.020] Media blackout? [08:42.020 --> 08:43.660] What media blackout? [08:43.660 --> 08:48.660] Even media hosts who strongly disagree with me on the income tax won't have me on as [08:48.660 --> 08:49.660] a guest. [08:49.660 --> 08:54.300] I find this odd because if they had the facts on their side, why not have me on, make mincemeat [08:54.300 --> 08:57.020] out of me, make me look like a fool? [08:57.020 --> 09:01.660] Even media hosts who are attorneys run like hell from the truth because they know they [09:01.660 --> 09:05.000] will be the ones who look like fools. [09:05.000 --> 09:09.900] About 20 years ago, I was approached in early March by a representative of the Bill Handel [09:09.900 --> 09:10.900] show. [09:10.900 --> 09:15.180] I was an attorney who has been doing the morning drive time show on KFI radio in Los Angeles [09:15.180 --> 09:16.180] for decades. [09:16.180 --> 09:22.340] I believe through syndication and other avenues, Handel is heard by about a million listeners [09:22.340 --> 09:23.620] a day. [09:23.620 --> 09:26.960] Handel routinely mocks those who know the truth of the income tax. [09:26.960 --> 09:30.660] He does everything he can to make them sound like buffoons. [09:30.660 --> 09:35.540] The reason Handel's people contacted me in March was to have me as a guest on Bill's [09:35.540 --> 09:37.900] April 15th show. [09:37.900 --> 09:41.980] As soon as I was invited, I knew the agenda was for Handel, who is an attorney, to make [09:41.980 --> 09:48.340] mincemeat out of me on the air, thus proving the truth of the income tax is actually nonsense. [09:48.340 --> 09:49.580] Good luck with that. [09:49.580 --> 09:53.340] I immediately agreed to be a guest on Bill's show. [09:53.340 --> 09:57.980] Then, suddenly, on about the 12th of April, I got a call from a person saying she was [09:57.980 --> 10:02.340] a producer for Handel and we needed to do a run through of the interview so they could [10:02.340 --> 10:04.860] better prepare to have me as a guest. [10:04.860 --> 10:07.980] She and I sat on the phone for about 10 minutes with her playing the role of Handel and me [10:07.980 --> 10:09.680] responding to questions. [10:09.680 --> 10:13.620] At the conclusion, she said she had all she needed and they'd be in touch. [10:13.620 --> 10:14.620] In touch they were. [10:14.620 --> 10:19.820] A few hours later, I received a call informing me Bill had decided to go in a, quote, different [10:19.820 --> 10:24.060] direction on his April 15th show and I would not be his guest. [10:24.060 --> 10:28.020] I got up at the crack of dawn on the 15th to hear Bill show. [10:28.020 --> 10:31.900] Instead of having someone knowledgeable about the income tax on the show, Handel opened [10:31.900 --> 10:36.340] the phone lines to take calls from listeners who felt the income tax didn't apply to [10:36.340 --> 10:37.340] most Americans. [10:37.340 --> 10:41.540] Needless to say, the call screeners only passed on to Bill callers with the most ridiculous [10:41.540 --> 10:47.580] claims and Bill slaughtered them all one after another, thus rigging the game to create the [10:47.580 --> 10:52.540] false impression that people who say they know the truth about the income tax are actually [10:52.540 --> 10:53.540] kooks. [10:53.540 --> 10:58.660] Needless to say, Handel never disclosed to his audience that he'd canceled the guest [10:58.660 --> 11:00.780] who would have made mincemeat out of him. [11:00.860 --> 11:05.480] Since Bill was an avid promoter of the government's big income tax lie, he took the callers way [11:05.480 --> 11:10.820] out by canceling the man who would have made him look like exactly what he is. [11:10.820 --> 11:12.140] A stooge. [11:12.140 --> 11:16.780] The good news is you don't have to be kept in the dark by corrupt media. [11:16.780 --> 11:21.100] You can simply purchase a copy of Income Tax Shattering the Mist and prove the truth to [11:21.100 --> 11:26.840] yourself by seeing what the law has said consistently for more than a hundred years. [11:26.900 --> 11:31.680] When I say the law, don't be concerned that it may be too complex to understand. [11:31.680 --> 11:36.440] The entire scheme is laid out in Income Tax Shattering the Mist with crystal clarity so [11:36.440 --> 11:41.600] every single American can understand what the government has done and how it's been [11:41.600 --> 11:42.600] done. [11:42.600 --> 11:46.440] Further, you're given the knowledge with which to walk away from the scam if you're [11:46.440 --> 11:50.220] inclined to do so after seeing the facts in law with your own two eyes. [11:50.220 --> 11:56.320] You can get Income Tax Shattering the Mist by going to drreality.news. [11:56.480 --> 12:00.860] There is never a better time than right now because I'm running a special for the holidays.

[12:09.160 --> 12:10.500] But that's not all. [12:10.500 --> 12:15.600] The special also applies to body science, which explains in an easy-to-understand manner [12:15.600 --> 12:20.860] the true physiological reason that America is the most chronically ill society in all [12:20.860 --> 12:22.700] of human history. [12:22.700 --> 12:28.020] The reason for that also involves a corrupt government and a complicit media. [12:28.020 --> 12:31.980] Body science details the disinformation campaign that's been run by the government and key [12:31.980 --> 12:39.580] institutions for 60 years, knowingly leading to an unbelievable amount of pain, illness, [12:39.580 --> 12:41.900] and death for the American people. [12:41.900 --> 12:47.860] Then body science explains how your physiology really works and how to get and stay incredibly [12:47.860 --> 12:52.900] healthy in the midst of the most chronically ill society in all of history.
