WASHINGTON - The Republican National Committee (RNC) released today a new episode of “Real America,” a podcast hosted by RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel. In this episode, Chairwoman McDaniel is joined by former RNC Finance Chairman Todd Ricketts, and the two discuss the American Dream, Big Tech’s discriminatory censorship of Republican ideals, and the importance of the upcoming midterm elections.
“One of the main reasons I wanted to bring you on to the podcast, because we have seen an unprecedented level of censorship coming from Big Tech… We just filed an FEC report about a study that was found to show that Google puts about 70% of Republican emails into spam and less than 10% of Democrat emails into spam. This wasn't a partisan study. It was a scientific study done through North Carolina [State University] which shows the bias. And you've started a new venture [Freepoke.com],” said Chairwoman McDaniel. “I'm so excited about this because I am sick and tired of this lack of transparency, these algorithms, and these backroom engineers with a political activist bent curating what I see in my searches, in my newsfeed. I'm capable of determining what I want to see for myself.”
“Look what's going on in the Biden administration. They're just a disaster top to bottom. And if I even set aside the Biden administration, it looks like that the void of leadership from President Biden and Vice President Harris as it looks like Elizabeth Warren is kind of running the Democrat Party now,” said Ricketts. “This is the year we need to all be involved and make sure everybody comes out and supports our candidates… We have a lot of contested primaries still going on… tough primaries with great candidates. The most important thing is that we get united behind whoever comes out of the primaries and make sure that we win in ‘22.”
“Real America” features stories from outside the beltway, highlights Republican leadership and shows how Republican policies are leading America’s comeback and working for real Americans. Chairwoman McDaniel is offering the platform for Republican leaders to share their successes and for listeners to hear real stories from the exciting, leading voices in our Party. Season Two launched this year and has featured President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pence, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, House Minority Whip Steve Scalise, Senator John Kennedy, Rep. Byron Donalds, Rep. Dan Crenshaw, Rep. Michelle Steel, Rep. Young Kim, ACU Chairman Matt Schlapp, Texas Congressional Candidate Wesley Hunt, SBA Pro-life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser, and Senator Ron Johnson.
