SO FAR THERE ARE NO REGULATIONS
ON TICKTOCK.
BACK TO YOU.
ELIZABETH: THANK YOU SO MUCH,
EDWARD LAWRENCE.
FROM HOUSE OVERSIGHT.
>> GOOD TO BE WITH YOU.
ELIZABETH: CONGRESSMAN, A
RAILROAD STRIKE, NATION’S
LARGEST UNION REJECTING THE
BIDEN WHITE HOUSE BROKERED DEAL.
THE PRESIDENT MAY NOT GET
INVOLVED IN THE TALKS AGAIN.
CONGRESSMAN WHAT DO YOU THINK?
>> CONGRESSMAN CLOUD.
>> WE’RE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH
HIS EARPIECE.
WHAT DO YOU THINK, MARK? >> I DON’T KNOW IF THERE WILL BE
>> I DON’T KNOW IF THERE WILL BE
A RAILROAD STRIKE OR NOT.
LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT HAPPENING
NOW, AS OPPOSED WHAT WOULD HAVE
PREDICTED POLITICALLY.
ELIZABETH: THANKS FOR THAT
STORY.
PRESIDENT IS, IS CONGRESSMAN
CLOUD’S EARPIECE GONE?
>> I THINK I’M BACK WITH YOU.
ELIZABETH: CONGRESSMAN CLOUD
WHAT IS YOUR REACTION.
TRUMP IS BACK ON TWITTER.
WHAT IS ALL THE UPROAR OR ABOUT.
PEOPLE CAN MUTE BUTTON ON TRUMP
OR BLOCK HIM.
TRUMP ON TRUTH SOCIAL.
NOTHING COMING BACK ANY WAY.
WHAT IS -- MEDIA ABOUT THIS?
>> EXACTLY YOU KNOW.
EXTREME LEFT FOR LAST COUPLE
YEARS.
THEY DON’T WANT FREE SPEECH.
WON’T LIKE FREE SPEECH.
MAKE SURE OPPOSING VIEWPOINTS
ARE NOT HEARD.
THAT IS WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN ON
THEIR SIDE TO MAKE SURE THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE CONTROL OF
THE ENTIRE COMMUNICATIONS SPACE
IN ORDER FOR THEIR IDEALS TO
GAIN MERIT.
FREE SPEECH IS THE WAY TO GO.
THAT IS WHAT THIS FOUNDATION --
ELIZABETH: MARK, I THINK PEOPLE
NOW KNOW, YOU KNOW THE OUTLINES
OF DONALD TRUMP, WHAT HE IS
GOING TO SAY AND DO.
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON CBS?
CBS IS COMING BACK ON TWITTER,
LESS THAN 48 HOURS, NO, WE’RE
NOT GOING TO BE ON TWITTER.
THERE IS SECURITY CONCERNS.
NOW THEY CAME BACK ON IN 48
HOURS.
WHAT IS HAPPENING OVER THERE,
MARK?
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
>> I DON’T UNDERSTAND THE WHOLE
LIBERAL FREAKOUT OVER ELON MUSK.
CONTROLS, EVERY SOCIAL MEDIA
PLATFORM EXCEPT TIKTOK WHICH IS
CONTROLLED BY THE CHINESE
COMMUNIST PARTY.
WE HAVE ONE SOCIAL MEDIA
PLATFORM THAT IS CONTROLLED BY
NOT EVEN A CONSERVATIVE,
LIBERTARIAN SPEECH ADVOCATE AND
THEY’RE LOSING THEIR MINDS OVER
IT.
LAST CONTROL TWITTER, I DIDN’T
SEE THEM BAN THE AYATOLLAH
KHOMENI.
HE IS UP PRESSES ACCESS OF HIS
OWN PEOPLE TO TWITTER.
I DIDN’T SAY THEM GET RID OF
VLADMIR PUTIN’S ACCOUNT WHO
ESPOUSING PROPAGANDA.
THE DICTATORS OF VENEZUELA,
NICHOLAS MADURO HAS A TWITTER
ACCOUNT.
TALIBAN HAS A TWITTER ACCOUNT.
YOU CAN GO ON AND ON.
DONALD TRUMP ON TWITTER?
HE IS FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES.
IT IS WORLD OF FREE SPEECH.
IF YOU DISAGREE WITH HIM,
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE CALL HIM OUT
IF HE HAS LIES ON TWITTER.
LET FREE SPEECH REIGN.
ELIZABETH: YOU HAVE A MUTE
BUTTON OR BLOCK BUTTON.
IF YOU DON’T WANT TO --
DICTATORS KILL PEOPLE, NOT
TRUMP.
YOU KNOW HOW REMARKABLY IDIOTIC
AND TAKING THE TEDIOUS OF
SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS MY FORMER
"FORBES" EDITOR USED TO SAY,
MARC.
EVERYBODY KNOWS TRUMP’S STORY.
BUT THE HISSY FIT.
THE RATINGS PLAY THEY DO WITH
ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT TRUMP, NOT
WHAT YOU JUST SAID, MARK.
THAT GOT DEMOCRATS SAYING, MAYBE
ROBOTS TOOK OVER THE MUSK --
BRINGING BACK TRUMP.
CONGRESSMAN CLOUD, REACT TO THIS
PUNDIT ON MSNBC SAYING IT IS A
POLICY CHOICE.
SHOULD WE EVEN LET BILLIONAIRES
LIKE MUSK EXIST.
WATCH THIS.
>> FIRST OF ALL I THINK
SOMETHING WE OFTEN FORGET AS
AMERICANS IS THAT BILLIONAIRES
EXIST AS A CLASS OF PEOPLE THAT
HAVE MUCH MONEY AT OUR
COLLECTIVE PLEASURE.
IT’S A POLICY CHOICE TO ALLOW
SOME PEOPLE TO ACCUMULATE THAT
MUCH MONEY, HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS
OF DOLLARS IN THE CASE OF PEOPLE
OF THE UNITED STATES BEFORE
EVERYBODY HAS THE CHANCE TO WORK
WITH DIGNITY.
OTHER COUNTRIES MAKE THAT CHOICE
VERY DIFFERENTLY.
ELIZABETH: HOW ABOUT ALL THE
MONEY YOU MADE?
HOW ABOUT ALL THE MONEY YOU
MADE, CONGRESSMAN WITH YOUR
NONSENSE COMING OUT OF YOUR
MOUSE THAT YOU SAY ON MSNBC
WHICH IS BASICALLY SAYING IT IS
OKAY FOR CHINA AND RUSSIA TO OY
PRESS THEIR PEOPLE, YOU KNOW,
JUST DISAGREE WITH THE OTHER
POINT OF VIEW IN THE U.S.,
CONGRESSMAN.
>> IF YOU LOOK AT THE THINGS
REALLY UPSET WITH A LOT OF
PEOPLE.
ONE OF THINGS HASN’T GOTTEN A
LOT OF NOTICE LAST WEEK THAT
ELON MUSK HAS DONE WITH TWITTER,
EXPLOITING CHILDREN.
THEY WERE NOT REALLY UPSET.
YOU DIDN’T HEAR THEM RAILING
AGAINST TWITTER’S ALLOWING FOR
THE CHILDREN.
NOW THAT ELON IS TAKING OVER,
OH, MY GOSH, DONALD TRUMP MIGHT
TWEET AGAIN.
AND SO THIS IS, IT IS JUST
CRAZY.
IT IS FROM THE LEFT.
THEY WANT TO CONTROL EVERYTHING.
EVERYONE WHO HAS SUCCESS.
AGAIN HE IS ADVOCATING FOR --
[INAUDIBLE]
AWED.
BUILT SUCCESSFUL COMPANIES
REMERE IN THE WORLD.
ELIZABETH: WE GOT TO GET TO THIS
STORY.
WE GOT TO GET TO THIS STORY.
WE HAVE HOUSE GOP LAWMAKERS, THE
NEW SPECIAL COUNSEL APPOINTED TO
INVESTIGATE TRUMP WAS A KEY
FIGURE IN THE IRS TARGETING
SCANDAL OF UNDER OBAMA TARGETING
NON-PROFITS DENYING THEIR
NON-PROFIT STATUS.
HE IS TAKING AIM AT THE SPECIAL
COUNSEL AT TRUMP.
TO YOU, MARC.
>> IT DOESN’T, DOESN’T SURPRISE
ME AT ALL.
THE BIG PROBLEM THAT THE JUSTICE
DEPARTMENT HAS IN THE EYES OF
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THEY HAVE
BEEN SO POLITICIZED FROM
COLLUSION WITH THE CLINTON
CAMPAIGN ON THE, ON THE DOSSIER,
MUELLER PROBE TO ALL THE REST OF
IT.
FOR THEM TO CHOOSE SOMEBODY WHO
IS NOT SQUEAKY-CLEAN AND HAS NO
APPARENT CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
OR ANYTHING IS JUST
MIND-BOGGLING.
YOU KNOW, IT IS PAR FOR THE
COURSE, THE INCOMPETENCE AND
BIAS OF THIS JUSTICE DEPARTMENT
IS NOT TO BE BELIEVED.
ELIZABETH: WHAT MARC IS SAYING,
CONGRESSMAN, SMITH AND IN 2010
UNOBAMA RAN DOJ CRIMINAL
DIVISION WITH LACK OF INTEGRITY.
CALLED FOR A MEETING WITH FORMER
IRS OFFICIAL LOIS LERNER TO TALK
ABOUT HOW THE IRS COULD ASSIST
IN CRIMINAL ENFORCEMENT AGAINST
NON-PROFITS, BUT TURNED AROUND
AND TARGETING CONSERVATIVE
NON-PROFITS.
BIG COMPANIES, AT&T, CHEVRON,
GENERAL DYNAMICS, LOBBYING
GIVING MONEY TO LAWMAKERS AND
NON-PROFITS TAKING THOSE
DONATIONS.
YOUR WORD ON THIS, CONGRESSMAN
CLOUD, FINAL WORD.
>> THE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE WILL
BE SO KEY IN NEXT COUPLE YEARS
BECAUSE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE
LOST FAITH IN THEIR GOVERNMENT.
THEY KNOW THERE IS A TWO-TIERED
JUSTICE SYSTEM.
EXACTLY WHAT WE DISCUSSED ABOUT
THE DOJ BEING ALL OVER THE MAP.
SEEN THE IRS, VERY LITTLE
ACCOUNTABILITY THERE.
WE’RE GOING TO GET IN A LOT OF
THESE ISSUES WHEN IT COMES TO
OVERSIGHT AND BEGIN TO WORK TO
RESTORE THE TRUST OF THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE IN THEIR
