There began to be these terrorist attacks, like the Garland attack in Texas, which turned out to have its own quite peculiar elements.

But there was this threat that Americans may be being recruited on Facebook and on YouTube and on Twitter by ISIS propagandists.

So we needed a technique to be able to scan the Internet for all pro-ISIS phraseology.

You know, the terms they use, the prefixes, the suffixes, the slang, the hashtags.

And so that began to be...

coordinated out of something called a newly set up wing of the U.S.

State Department, really its first ever formal censorship subdivision.

It was called the Global Engagement Center.

And I bring this up because it plays into the story later on here.

And this is set up by a guy named Rick Stengel, who was the Undersecretary for Public Affairs, bragged that he was Obama's chief propagandist.

It's basically the interstitial between state propaganda from the U.S.

State Department and the media.

And they began to use these technologies to scan and ban ISIS.

But then after the Crimea incident, this began to be all sort of Russian propaganda.

But then any time a populist candidate began to win or gain popularity in Europe, they said Marine Le Pen

is advantaging Russia with the plank she's running on.

She wants to get rid of the U.S.

sanctions on Russian energy so we can scan and ban for all sentiment that supports Marine Le Pen, as well as any U.S.

citizens who amplify Marine Le Pen in the U.S.

and give her political support there.
