The White House launches “Trump TV” after media ban.

[u/Long_Syllabub_7963]

The White House launched "Trump TV: The Essentials Station" a 24/7 unfiltered video stream on YouTube and the official White House app, drawing sharp comparisons to state-run media in countries like North Korea.

[u/ProgressMedium2172]

American State Media

[u/Long_Syllabub_7963 → u/ProgressMedium2172]

And shouldn’t it raise legal issues about the use of government resources for partisan and personal promotion?

Edit: Not that this admin cares about legalities, but could the court step in?

[u/Icy_Fish_2154 → u/Long_Syllabub_7963]

Nah, Trump defunded Sesame Street because Elmo was too liberal. Trump said no media should receive state funding.

The court blocked it, but someone should now use his still existing EO14290 to sue, demanding that his new state media violated his own EO.

[u/BrokenBackENT → u/Long_Syllabub_7963]

Not that the orange god worshipers in congress would ever do anything to enforce it.

[u/Full-District- → u/Long_Syllabub_7963]

If Congress cared about the administration breaking laws, he never would have made it through his first term.

[u/jiveturkin → u/Long_Syllabub_7963]

What power do the courts actually have? Lower courts have been fighting but when you have power and backing sadly nothing really happens when those put into power don’t want to raise any objections against their dear leader

[u/TheBigMoogy → u/ProgressMedium2172]

Second edition, Truth Social is already state media.

[u/Complete-Tangelo1532 → u/TheBigMoogy]

Faux 'News' Entertainment Media and co are ALSO State Media

[u/Icy_Fish_2154 → u/Complete-Tangelo1532]

At least Fox joined the boycott when Trump kicked out the other news. More that I thought they would do.

[u/Complete-Tangelo1532 → u/Icy_Fish_2154]

Yea but they helped elevate this menace so they still have negative points

[u/Icy_Fish_2154 → u/Complete-Tangelo1532]

They certainly do have negative points, but still managed to surprise me.

[u/Complete-Tangelo1532 → u/Icy_Fish_2154]

Yea if they actually hold up to that ill give them that, it's not something we would normally expect these days

[u/troycerapops → u/Complete-Tangelo1532]

Every outlet did.

But you know what, at the end of the day American citizens voted for this POS. He's been a horrible person since at least the 70s. He led an insurrection. He was still elected.

The American voter is the real problem here. Uneducated in propaganda and hucksterisms.

[u/Temporary-Canary2942 → u/troycerapops]

The American non-voter also bears responsibility.

[u/troycerapops → u/Temporary-Canary2942]

Yes. There is no not participating in this democracy. A non-vote is a vote. The worst kind of vote.

[u/Icy_Fish_2154 → u/TheBigMoogy]

Pravda was the state media for Communist Russia. Pravda is Russian for "truth". Trump literally named his media the same as the Commies.

[u/NoNewFans → u/TheBigMoogy]

Atleast this one’s free!

[u/Long_Syllabub_7963 → u/ProgressMedium2172]

They’re getting more desperate to spew their propaganda.

[u/Brikpilot → u/ProgressMedium2172]

I hope North Korea sues him for breech of patent.

[u/Own-Scallion-8713 → u/ProgressMedium2172]

A play right out of Russian. He learned all he needed from putin and company in the 80s. Trump envies those guys

[u/za72 → u/ProgressMedium2172]

you just pay $199,999.95 a year subscription

[u/Extreme-Slice-1010]

Now showing on Trump Tv

[u/Mundane_Zucchini_547 → u/Extreme-Slice-1010]

Fiends.

[u/CloseDaLight]

Just checked out trump Tv and I’m confused

The schedule has a six hour block of Lemon Party followed by six hours of Meat Spin followed by six hotels of Goatsy

Really weird choices Trump

[u/Asthmatic_Owl]

This is giving off Orwellian Telescreen vibes.

[u/DesignatedSurvivor86]

How do we report it for fake news?

[u/ngatiboi]

Well - he slapped his name on it, so it’s probably not going to last too long…🤔

[u/Raven586 → u/ngatiboi]

Of course by then it will have cost you another 50 Million in taxes!!

[u/GlykenT → u/Raven586]

The fee to use the Trump name will be more than that.

[u/LoamyLoamisLoamy → u/ngatiboi]

I'm really surprised he didn't put his name on things instead of just putting America. The Gulf of Trump, Lake Trump, New Trump, etc..

[u/ngatiboi → u/LoamyLoamisLoamy]

…yet.

[u/ChuchoGrind]

Never let whoever voted for this live it down.

[u/InternationalDesk578]

Can’t wait till Dems win. I hope they use the full power of the SEC to justifiably and lawfully investigate and cripple the propaganda machines including Fox, News Max, OAN and TMTG. I hope they all face the The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) who can enforce a "news distortion policy" prohibiting the intentional falsification of news. I hope the SEC finds Trumpp Media and Technology Group guilty of insider trading and then I hope once Trump is impeached he is sanctioned and financially held accountable for the corruption and grift he partook in for personal private gains under the guise of official presidential acts.

[u/Regurgitator001]

What a shitshow.

[u/IarguewithevlIm0r0ns]

I hate this country so much man

[u/PoetryJunior1808]

He's like the child on the playground who copies everything that he sees his favorite cool kid does. Putin has RT? What about... Trump TV!?

[u/Heisenberg991]

Unless the msm replays his lying nobody will watch it. Trump is fukkkkkkkkkd

[u/angryjanitor69]

Of look state sponsored media and news coverage

[u/mischanif]

Just report this channel for Fake News and never open again

[u/TzviLS]

Trump dictador

Donald Trump is a child trafficker and everyone knows it.

[u/Responsible_Ladder25]

It’s like MAD TV, right?

Shouldn’t it be called ‘Trump propaganda TV’

[u/retiredfromfire]

Im guessing mostly pedophile content?

[u/demoliahedd]

Please tell me this isn't using tax money

[u/Designer_Ear_1382]

I've said before, Trump could wipe SH# from his a## on the Constitution and his followers would be all for it.

[u/Andy_Fish_Gill]

Pravda on the Potomac. Produced by Vlad Putin.

[u/Awkward_Bud2323]

Probably their plan all along

[u/Revolutionary-Link47]

Only $14.99 a day, for the very best in free press

[u/Socky-McPuppet]

I figured he would just make his own news network to cover himself. I imagine the budget for makeup will rival military spending, all taxpayer funded, of course. 

[u/adhbeatle]

Puck ready for this asshole to leave

[u/Tiny_Scar_1207]

We are North Korea.

I hope MAGA is happy.

Let's roll!

[u/Bethesdan]

This is what he was dreaming about his first administration. Took him long enough to get here, and only took the worst approval ratings in history. Way to go, Don, our little baby dictator.

[u/MammothPost4047 → u/Bethesdan]

As far as dictators go, he sucks. Worst in history. 

[u/Altruistic-Might8056]

You have got to be kidding…

[u/ElectroConvert]

Too bad they turned off comments!

[u/LoaKonran]

Oh god, this is real?! I thought somebody was making a meme.

[u/AlbertTheHorse]

Wonder if comments will be turned off?

Wonder how many times I can report it for hate?

[u/MabelRed]

What’s the over/under for when he starts charging monthly for it?

[u/Ok_Ideal_7266]

It'll file for bankruptcy too!

[u/charlieyeswecan]

And none of us are watching it right?

[u/Hot_Bicycle_9944]

Soooo state run media. Hey maga do you still believe Trump isnt a facist? 

[u/Silent_Erremite]

The most dystopian channel since MTV.

[u/Achilles1300]

Most hilarious-sad thing ever. Hilar-sad. At least now he can speak power to truth without his words being twisted!!!! /s

[u/BTSArmyFan2025]

good lord there is some intern whose job it will be to watch it. Give them a raise.

[u/Alternative_Piece389]

I can’t wait. I’ll be sure to tune right in so I don’t miss a thing. 🙄

[u/Able_Ad_4874]

He’s ridiculous

[u/Burnz5150]

How is he planning to broadcast? Like is he just gonna get a channel on cable? Is it gonna be through an app?

[u/CannaPeaches]

We’ll talk about fake news !!! Hold on for some real made up crap!

[u/Salty_Dog_1221]

Is that arm tweaking his nipple?

[u/digi57]

Don’t worry. It’ll fail because it’ll suck. Everything he takes command of turns to shit.

[u/Aggravating-Gift-740 → u/digi57]

If it becomes the only way to get pool video out of the white house then the “legitimate” news organizations will start to use it. I bet it lasts as long as he is in office.

[u/space-cadet-jr]

Shocking, I tell ya! Just shocking.

[u/Sufficient-Egg-7437]

😂

[u/_Dying_Breed]

As an European, for months we were like "God tell me it's fake or AI". Now we just read s*** like this and are like "Yeah. Sounds about right."

USA will take years to fix the damage he is doing. Likely decades to repair alliances and relationships between countries.

[u/rudra00]

If I recall didn't he plan to launch this back in 2016 as a post election grift but then ended up winning and realized he can make even more money grifting the presidency.

[u/Speedstar_86]

Bankrupt by tea time.

[u/lets-go-scream]

This episode on my favourite show (I’m an Aussie) is absolutely

[u/Infamous_Gene_7009]

North Korean tv

[u/CopiousNotes1]

Wonder how much he intended to charge his idiots for access to that.

[u/Capable-Bill-2902]

Communist states always have a state media outlet. Like this one.

[u/fastpixels]

So this whole "disrupt the press's presence at the White House enough to pave the way for a state-run media outlet" was on what page of Project 2025?

[u/FleshlightModel]

Now you too can experience him shitting and pissing himself 24/7 just like the rest of the complicit souls in the White Power House

[u/shoghon]

US Citizens pay for this bullshit. Unfortunately, this may be difficult to get rid of after his gone. Interestingly, as they chose YouTube as their platform, it must follow the rules of the platform. This might not bode well for them as it is the right of the platform to do what they wish. The rules in the US Constitution only apply to the government, not private industry.

If only the billions of users on Youtube would flag this channel constantly. Be on the look out for music they shouldn't use. So many wonderful things can be done.

Wait...is that a real ad?

It looks like it was made with google docs...

[u/Unlucky-Cup-5461]

Well should this surprise anyone really? Reichs-Rundfunk-Gesellschaft was the official state radio station of Nazi Germany when radio and newspapers were the only forms of mass media, long before television and the Internet. Völkischer Beobachter was the official state newspaper. Is that next?

[u/Competitive-Pool-847]

“All bullshit, all the time”

No one other than his cult will watch it, especially if it has "Trump" in the name, that's like advertising your news is full of lies.
