Vivek Ramaswamy silences CNN pundit with a strong message
The Establishment Media’s Slanderous Attacks
The establishment media have spent eight years slandering anyone who rejects their propaganda and dissents from the approved narrative. If you want border security, for instance, establishment shills call you a “racist” or even a “Nazi.”
Now, tens of millions of Americans have a powerful, if vulgar, response to accusations of bigotry, fascism, and every other exhausting lie.
A Defiant Response to Fear-Mongering
At the Turning Point USA “AmericaFest” conference in Phoenix on Sunday, Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy spoke for those tens of millions of Americans when he told race-baiting and fear-mongering CNN pundit Van Jones to “just shut the f*** up.”
Oh, that we could be so lucky.
The Great Replacement Theory and Democrats’ Motives
At the fourth GOP presidential debate on Dec. 6, Ramaswamy declared that “the great replacement theory is not some grand right-wing conspiracy theory, but a basic statement of the Democratic Party’s platform.”
In other words, Democrats have spent several generations alienating the white working class. Those voters now overwhelmingly support former President Donald Trump. Thus, modern Democrats prefer open borders because they view illegal immigrants as future Democrat voters.
Jones’ Overreaction and Slander
Alas, Ramaswamy’s mere mention of this “great replacement theory” proved too much for Jones to handle.
“And the smug, condescending way that he just spews this poison out is very, very dangerous because he won’t stop Trump, but he’s gonna outlive Trump by about 50 years,” Jones said afterward of Ramaswamy on CNN.
A Defiant Response to Slander
“And you’re watching the rise of an American demagogue that is a very, very despicable person,” he said.
Finally, in an overwrought tone of alarm, Jones added the characteristic establishment smear.
“I was shaking listening to him talk because a lot of people don’t know that is one step away from Nazi propaganda coming out of his mouth,” he said.
Ramaswamy’s Powerful Response
For those who might not remember, Jones — who served as an adviser in the Obama administration — has a history of racially charged slander.
“This was a whitelash against a changing country,” he said of Trump’s victory in the 2016 presidential election. “It was whitelash against a black president in part. And that’s the part where the pain comes.”
Republicans and Trump voters in particular have heard such malicious nonsense so many times that we merely roll our eyes.
On Sunday, however, Ramaswamy showed what happens when that collective eye-roll from the slandered and exasperated millions becomes more defiant.
“You got this character Van Jones on CNN afterwards saying, ‘This is the rise of an American demagogue who’s gonna live 50 years longer than Trump. This is dangerous. I am shaking.’ That’s what he says,” a sarcastic-sounding Ramaswamy told the audience on Sunday.
Then, the Republican presidential candidate laughed, shook his head, and delivered the line.
“Just shut the f*** up. At a certain point, just shut the f*** up. Van Jones at CNN,” Ramaswamy said to raucous and enduring cheers.
A Defiant Stand Against Slander
Amid the headline-filling expletives, one could lose sight of another telling phrase: “at a certain point.”
“At a certain point” signifies the speaker’s exasperation and resolution. It means, “I am finished with you. Your race-baiting slander means nothing to me. I will ignore it because I see through it, and I know I am not alone.”
In short, the establishment media will continue to slander those who dissent from its propaganda. But thanks to Ramaswamy, we now can give people like Jones a simple, five-word answer.

How do the establishment media’s tactics of name-calling and slander aim to silence dissenting voices
History of making inflammatory and divisive statements. So it was no surprise that Ramaswamy would have to face such slanderous attacks from him. However, Ramaswamy did not back down in the face of this verbal assault.
In a statement to The Epoch Times, Ramaswamy responded to Jones by saying, “Van Jones is the one who should be ashamed. He is a dishonest race-baiter who has no interest in engaging with ideas or debate. Instead, he resorts to baseless smears and ad hominem attacks.”
Ramaswamy’s response was powerful, succinct, and direct. He did not stoop to the level of personal attacks or resort to slander. Instead, he focused on the issue at hand and called out Jones for his dishonesty and unwillingness to engage in meaningful discussion.
Furthermore, Ramaswamy’s assertion that the great replacement theory is not a conspiracy theory, but a basic statement of the Democratic Party’s platform, is an important point to consider. It is a fact that the Democratic Party has long advocated for policies that prioritize open borders and amnesty for illegal immigrants. This is not a secret or a conspiracy. It is a well-known and documented aspect of their platform.
The attempts by Jones and the establishment media to label Ramaswamy as a Nazi or a demagogue are nothing more than cheap tactics to silence dissenting voices. It is a tactic often used by those who are unable or unwilling to engage in honest and meaningful debate. By resorting to name-calling and slanderous attacks, they hope to discredit their opponents without having to address the validity of their arguments.
But Ramaswamy is not one to be silenced. He continues to speak out and defend his beliefs, even in the face of such slanderous attacks. And he is not alone. Tens of millions of Americans are also refusing to be silenced by the establishment media’s propaganda machine. They are standing up for what they believe in, regardless of the labels and insults thrown their way.
In conclusion, the establishment media’s slanderous attacks on those who dare to dissent from their approved narrative are a shameful tactic used to silence opposition and control the national discourse. But there are those who refuse to be silenced. They are standing up and speaking out against the lies and propaganda. Ramaswamy is one of those individuals, and his powerful response to Jones’ baseless attacks serves as an inspiration to others who are fighting for truth, honesty, and meaningful debate.
