WATCH: THIS is why WE #FightLikeHell: Louder with Crowder Mission Statement



"Louder with Crowder" fans were expecting the show to return to YouTube today from a seven-day suspension. The channel, however, has a strike making Crowder ineligible to run ads for 30 days. In light of YouTube's ever-changing guidelines, Crowder gave a quick explanation for why he will not stream his show on YouTube just yet.

"In constantly being attacked by YouTube for, not actual YouTube guidelines violations, but by the constant creation rather of new guidelines, I have asked YouTube to clarify their attorney's recent comments. And will give them one more week to reply," Crowder explained.

Monday, Crowder decided that today was an excellent day to articulate a mission statement to outline why "Louder with Crowder" is the show that it is today, why it matters so much to him, and why it is the only show he will ever create.

Crowder's goal is to achieve the best of both worlds when creating content for his audience. To achieve this goal, Crowder strives to create content that YouTube will not ban. To achieve his goal, Crowder must have a fighting chance to form a firm understanding of YouTube's ever-changing rules so that he can create and plan content accordingly. Alternatively, all content that goes against YouTube's guidelines has a place on MugClub.

What does Crowder strive to do with his content? He aims to be the most transparent show there is so he can focus on the content. He seeks to be the antibully and to punch up against the hard-left mainstream media. He also seeks to provide his audience with solutions instead of simply stating and restating the problems with society. (Watch the clip for more)

"On slow news days, those are the days that sometimes we take our biggest creative swings big creative and misses because we don't have to fill the show with useless crap, and I'd rather you leave informed, happy, and entertained rather than fooled and depressed," Crowder asserted.

"Louder with Crowder" is scheduled to return to YouTube Nov. 1.

YouTube bans Sebastian Gorka's channel for violating 2020 election policy



YouTube has banned former Trump aide and radio host Sebastian Gorka's channel for repeated violations of its "presidential election integrity policy," according to several reports.

The Washington Examiner reported Sunday that Gorka's show, "America First," was removed from YouTube's platform days ago. In a statement, a spokesperson for YouTube said that the channel had been banned for posting information that made allegations of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

"In accordance with our long standing strikes system, we terminated the channel America First with Sebastian Gorka, for repeated violations of our presidential election integrity policy," said spokesperson Ivy Choi. "As we've publicly shared, our presidential election integrity policy prohibits content uploaded after last year's safe harbor deadline that alleges widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome of the 2020 U.S. presidential election. Any channel that violates this policy will receive a strike and channels that receive three strikes in the same 90-day period are permanently removed from YouTube, as in the case of America First with Sebastian Gorka."

Choi issued a similar statement confirming Gorka's ban to The Hill.

The Examiner suggested that an episode of "America First" titled, "Can we stop the Next Steal? Joe DiGenova and Victoria Toensing on AMERICA First with Sebastian Gorka," may be in violation of YouTube's policies. The episode, which is still available on popular YouTube alternative Rumble, featured a discussion about "all of the ways the 2020 election was stolen from President Trump."

Gorka did not immediately respond to the Examiner's request for comment.

On Dec. 9, YouTube enacted its Presidential Election Integrity policy and announced it would remove "content that misleads people by alleging that widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome of the 2020 U.S. Presidential election."

An incomplete list of content that is not allowed on YouTube includes:

  • Claims that a candidate only won a swing state in the U.S. 2020 presidential election due to voting machine glitches that changed votes.
  • Claims that dead people voted in numbers that changed the outcome of the U.S. 2016 presidential election.
  • Claims that fake ballots were dumped to give one candidate enough votes to win a state in a past U.S. presidential election.

"We may allow content such as the examples above if it includes countervailing views or sufficient context in the images or audio of the video itself. Providing it in the title or description may be insufficient," YouTube's guidelines state.

YouTube's content moderation policies establish a three-strike policy for violations of its Community Guidelines. If an account violates the platform's policies three times within a 90-day-period, YouTube reserves the right to permanently remove that account.
