Big Tech didn’t just tilt the playing field in 2020—it bulldozed it. Chris Pavlovski, CEO of Rumble, went on Wednesday’s WarRoom with Steve Bannon and pulled back the curtain on how Google, through YouTube, deliberately suppressed conservative voices in the weeks leading up to Election Day. His charge is explosive but undeniable: Google engaged in outright election interference, silencing anyone who dared to tell the truth about the Hunter Biden laptop.

October 2020 was the breaking point. As the laptop story surfaced, Google moved to crush it. Conservative creators—Dan Bongino, Congressman Devin Nunes, and Steve Bannon’s WarRoom—were banned, throttled, or shadowbanned. The excuse? "Russian disinformation.” The reality? A calculated political hit job designed to protect Joe Biden and bury a scandal that could have cost him the election.

The WarRoom was among the casualties, forced off YouTube just days after the vote and onto Rumble. Pavlovski pointed out that this wasn’t about policing "misinformation.” It was about controlling the narrative. Look at Nunes. On YouTube, with all the promotion in the world, he crawled to 10,000 subscribers over four years. On Rumble, he racked up hundreds of thousands in months. The numbers don’t lie. YouTube throttled him, silenced him, and then handed the top of Google’s search results to hit pieces from CNN and The New York Times. That’s not an accident. That’s systemic censorship.

Now, under pressure from Congressman Jim Jordan’s subpoenas, YouTube has quietly reinstated some banned channels. Pavlovski wasn’t impressed. He called it a "bandage,” a PR stunt to calm conservatives, not a real shift. Steve Bannon went further, warning that Silicon Valley sees Trump as nothing more than a "temporary summer storm.” Once the storm passes, they’ll slam the censorship hammer back down.

This is where the contrast with Rumble couldn’t be clearer. Pavlovski made it plain: Rumble won’t cave. Not to Biden, not to Brazil, not to France, not to anyone. Rumble rejects demands to remove speech, standing firm on American principles of free expression. That’s why Pavlovski calls Rumble a platform built on "rock,” while YouTube rests on "sand”—shifting, crumbling, and collapsing under political pressure.

Bannon tied it all together with his signature warning: conservatives can’t beg for scraps from institutions designed to destroy them. They need to build their own. That’s the heart of his "maximalist strategy”—seize institutions, or build new ones that can’t be torn down. Rumble is proof it can be done.

The message from WarRoom was clear: don’t be fooled by YouTube’s games. Don’t trust Google, Facebook, or any of the Silicon Valley oligarchs who showed you exactly what they’re willing to do when power is on the line. Support Rumble. Subscribe to WarRoom there. Stand on rock, not sand. Because if October 2020 taught us anything, it’s this: Big Tech will interfere again. The only question is whether conservatives will be ready.
