If you continue to look the other way and shut up,
00:00:32.340
It's another element that backs them into a quarter
00:00:37.420
This is why this audience is going to have to get engaged.
00:00:41.700
All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth.
00:00:53.380
According to two sources with direct knowledge,
00:00:58.640
low confidence that the virus likely originated from a lab leak in Wuhan, China.
00:01:06.740
However, it believes COVID was not the result of a man-made bioweapon.
00:01:13.020
The Wall Street Journal was the first to report in this classified intelligence report
00:01:16.700
recently given to the White House and key members of the Congress yesterday.
00:01:20.540
National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan was asked about this development.
00:01:32.340
Well, Dana, there is a variety of views in the intelligence community.
00:01:36.080
Some elements of the intelligence community have reached conclusions on one side,
00:01:40.520
A number of them have said they just don't have enough information to be sure.
00:01:45.820
President Biden has directed repeatedly every element of our intelligence community to put
00:01:51.500
effort and resources behind getting to the bottom of this question.
00:01:54.660
And one of the things in that Wall Street Journal report, which I can't confirm or deny,
00:02:00.100
but I will say the reference to the Department of Energy, President Biden specifically requested
00:02:05.360
that the national labs, which are part of the Department of Energy,
00:02:09.140
be brought into this assessment because he wants to put every tool at use to be able to figure out
00:02:16.540
what happened here. And if we gain any further insider information, we will share it with Congress
00:02:22.060
and we will share it with the American people. But right now, there is not a definitive answer
00:02:27.060
that has emerged from the intelligence community on this question.
00:02:34.580
not being viewed as hugely significant among the intelligence community due to interagency
00:02:40.080
disagreements about COVID's origins. In a statement sent to NBC, the Department of Energy says
00:02:46.640
it continues to support the thorough, careful and objective work of our intelligence professionals
00:02:53.520
in investigating the origins of COVID-19. As the president directed, China has denied that COVID
00:03:00.840
originated from a lab leak and called on all sides to stop politicizing the issue. Meanwhile,
00:03:07.340
House Republicans have kicked off their own investigations into the origins of the pandemic.
00:03:12.480
A spokesperson for the Oversight Committee said the committee is, quote,
00:03:20.280
Well, you know, this has been an ongoing debate for some time. There was
00:03:25.040
the Energy Department saying they have low confidence, but think that it may be a lab leak.
00:03:31.380
And Jim, you've had other intel agencies. This is Tommy Vitor.
00:03:35.260
Foreign intel agencies think COVID spread naturally. The DOE thinks the lab leak
00:03:40.480
with low confidence. FBI thinks lab leak with moderate confidence. None think it was part of
00:03:46.240
a Chinese bioweapon program. And he's saying hope the DNI will release what info it can soon.
00:03:53.940
This is something, though, and we've said it here. I remember Tom Cotton got attacked by some newspaper.
00:04:00.240
I forget it. Maybe it was the Times. I forget who it was for talking about the possibility of a lab
00:04:05.460
leak. And we said on the show, we don't know. Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn't. The problem here is
00:04:11.060
the Chinese. And you can talk to Matt Pottinger about this. If anybody has any questions,
00:04:16.460
the Chinese haven't been cooperating since December of 2019.
00:04:21.460
Everything is politics. So it's really hard to get to the bottom of it.
00:04:26.120
Right. That's exactly the problem. I mean, there was a report back in 2021, Joe, where
00:04:30.940
the same intelligence agencies had similar conclusions. What is new, as you just noted,
00:04:36.260
is the Department of Energy, because they have the national labs, because President Biden asked them
00:04:41.900
to use all of their resources to look into it, did conclude with low confidence. But the FBI
00:04:47.280
has had moderate confidence back in 2021 and still has that today. So not a ton has changed.
00:04:55.280
The reason, as you just alluded to, is because the Chinese are not providing data. And it originated
00:05:01.440
there. And the WHO, the World Health Organization, has asked them to do that. The Biden administration,
00:05:07.740
countless European countries. And until they do that, and I doubt they ever will at this point,
00:05:12.960
it will be very difficult, even for the intelligence agencies in the United States or any other country,
00:05:18.480
to have a real conclusion of what the origin is here. So Congress member Gooden's comments
00:05:25.040
questioning my loyalty to the U.S. is absolutely outrageous and disgusting. It's based on false
00:05:32.340
information spread by an extreme right wing website. But furthermore, it's racist. I very much doubt that
00:05:39.260
he'd be spreading these lies, were I not of Chinese American descent. In my opinion, it's McCarthyism
00:05:45.180
at its worst. And it's downright dangerous. Making ugly and false accusations like this puts a target
00:05:53.380
on my back for something that is not true. And in fact, it just perpetuates the stereotype that Asian
00:06:00.300
Americans are foreigners in their own land, no matter how many generations they've been in this country
00:06:05.820
or are like me and were born and raised in this country. But we have to look at where this is
00:06:10.740
coming from. Congress member Gooden appears to sympathize with violent insurrectionists and spreads
00:06:16.200
big lies to the American people, having voted not to certify the election of President Biden.
00:06:22.500
And in fact, it's one of those extreme MAGA Republicans in the House that are focused on
00:06:28.460
Nice, nice, nice try, lady. It's Monday, 27 February, year of early 2023. No, I've been fully
00:06:36.700
sanctioned by the Chinese Congress, probably the first civilian in American history to do so.
00:06:41.720
Biden administration didn't lift a finger about that because it happened literally 30 seconds.
00:06:46.300
It was announced by Chinese authorities 30 seconds after Biden took his hand off the Holy Bible
00:06:51.780
on inauguration day. No, we, I am the founder of the new federal co-founder of the new federal state
00:07:00.460
of China, which is to support the Lao Bai Jing and their overthrow of the illegitimate Chinese
00:07:06.420
Communist Party. Rogan's book, which is still the definitive book about the Trump administration
00:07:10.920
and Xi called Chaos Under Heaven, identifies me as the head of the, what's called the Superhawks.
00:07:17.340
And he said the Superhawks is an entirely new concept. And it was what was driving the
00:07:22.020
administration because you had hardliners, you had realists, you had the accommodationists,
00:07:26.700
you know, you had Kushner and Mnuchin and Cohen, the accommodationists from Wall Street.
00:07:30.600
You had the realists like, you know, Jim Mattis and, you know, McMasters and it's kind of the
00:07:37.740
realists. And then you had the hardliners like Pompeo, they're hardliners. And then you had the
00:07:42.020
Superhawks. The Superhawks don't buy into the fact that the CCP is a legitimate government
00:07:47.300
government of the Chinese Communist Party, of the people of China, the Chinese state or the
00:07:52.480
Chinese people. And who else doesn't think that is Wang Shishan and these guys inside the CCP that
00:07:57.400
are all the time worried about the legitimacy and worried about questions of the legitimacy.
00:08:01.520
Remember, the first thing we did is have people start talking about the CCP and not China and not
00:08:06.240
the Chinese people, lady. Okay, so don't throw up the racism card. No, we took it away from any even
00:08:12.520
discussion of the Chinese people or the Chinese state. And we're focused on the criminal element
00:08:18.340
in Beijing, which is the problem. And that would be the Chinese Communist Party. And to show that
00:08:23.420
we're not even close to being racist, the biggest issue we have to take them down and to free Lao
00:08:29.480
Beijing is the collaborationists they have that are anything but Chinese, but are Americans,
00:08:36.080
American citizens. And we're going to get to the bottom of all that. I got Frank Gaffney is co-host and
00:08:41.840
we got two of the heaviest hitters from the Committee on the Present Danger. We got Trevor
00:08:45.580
Loudon and Reggie Littlejohn. Frank, first off, and I wanted to play the Wuhan lab part this morning
00:08:51.340
because lo and behold, we haven't talked about Wuhan on the war room on 23 January 2020 and war room
00:08:58.720
pandemic. When we flipped the show from impeachment pandemic, we laid out the case for the bioweapons
00:09:03.300
lab. Wuhan was center of PLA military. It was the health center for the PLA since 1949 and even
00:09:11.660
before then. Wuhan is certainly a biolab, certainly is the reason they wanted to go make it a level
00:09:19.820
four lab. And Fauci and these guys were all collaborators, all working with them. And they're
00:09:26.100
doing gain of function or directed evolution or weaponization, whatever you want to call it.
00:09:30.920
And right there you see, oh, no, they're not working. And by the way, Joe Scarborough, it's a
00:09:35.800
bald-faced lie. Scarborough, the paper was the Washington Post. And quite frankly, Cotton gave a
00:09:41.960
watered down version of the war room. That was about three or four weeks into this. I think it
00:09:45.760
took place in the first couple of weeks of February of 2020. And no, Joe Scarborough, you're a bald-faced
00:09:51.040
liar. The paper was the Washington Post and you covered every day for what happened in Wuhan. So
00:09:57.180
don't sit there now as all of a sudden the stones are being unturned and the cockroaches are running
00:10:01.660
around as a cockroach. You want to say, oh, no, no, I kind of said it could be either. Or no, you did
00:10:05.800
not. You most certainly did not. Your show did not. Your network did not. And here's one of the
00:10:10.400
reasons your network did not. Your network was at the Winter Olympics, which NBC underwrote the
00:10:17.280
Winter Olympics, underwrote the Winter Olympics, and let the murderous Chinese Communist Party make
00:10:22.620
it a showcase at the very place where Putin came over and did his no-limits deal, Joe Scarborough and
00:10:28.100
MSNBC, who are total collaborationists, total collaborationists with the Chinese Communist
00:10:34.940
Party. Frank, and they're sitting there now. Oh, we're doing everything. Hey, note to self also.
00:10:39.580
If they're not cooperating, cut them off from Wall Street. Cut them off from technology. Start to seize
00:10:45.220
their assets. Sanction them. Oh, they said they're not going to cooperate. Okay, I guess then, you know,
00:10:50.780
we're just never going to find out. No, baby. You know, cut CNBC and MSNBC and NBC Sports from going
00:10:58.700
over there and giving them billions of dollars to showcase in front of the entire world what great
00:11:04.200
guys they are. You're a collaborationist, Scarborough. You take dirty money from
00:11:08.560
collaborationists, okay? Your whole network's dirty. NBC's dirty. Comcast is dirty, right? The Roberts
00:11:15.400
family that owns is dirty. You're taking dirty CC. You're giving the CCP dirty money. You're in bed
00:11:21.440
with them. Frank Gaffney. Yeah, Steve, we called them the genocide games. And NBC, you're absolutely
00:11:30.340
right, partnered up and was using the games to do what the Chinese Communist Party wants most, and that
00:11:36.940
is to be legitimated. And this is exactly why we're talking today about various ways in which we
00:11:45.060
speak to the issue of delegitimizing the Chinese Communist Party. This is absolutely crucial.
00:11:53.720
You've picked up very powerfully, I think, on the idea that it is a transnational criminal
00:11:59.460
organization. That's exactly what it is. It's a leitmotif of our new book, The Indictment,
00:12:07.900
which talks about that. But we also talk, Steve, in The Indictment about what is arguably the single
00:12:14.260
most serious line of attack the Chinese are using, not just to help legitimate themselves, but to
00:12:20.800
destroy us. And that is elite capture. And you've teased two different aspects of this. One is Judy Chu.
00:12:30.560
We're going to be talking about her and others in our political elites captured by the CCP with our
00:12:39.980
colleague Trevor Loudon. You talked about the Department of Energy's new finding, such as it is,
00:12:50.380
that they agree that there's a possibility, they have low confidence, but there's a possibility that
00:12:55.560
it came from, the COVID virus came from a biowarfare laboratory in Wuhan. And by the way, Steve, I just want
00:13:04.700
to remind people, the book that we did, our Team B3 book, which is available for free, as a PDF at ccpatwar.com,
00:13:15.520
found, just as the Department of Energy has done, that there's no evidence this thing came from natural
00:13:22.160
sources. None. Zero. Nada. So what are the chances then it came from a laboratory where Tony Fauci was doing this
00:13:31.260
gain-of-function research and so on? So that's another area. And the reason that's so important,
00:13:35.780
the reason we did this study was one of the people who works for Joe Biden, a former West exec
00:13:43.580
figure, Averill Haynes, is the director of central intelligence. West exec is an outfit that was doing
00:13:51.200
business with the Chinese Communist Party, with Tony Blinken and others.
00:13:54.860
By the way, she's had a, hang on, hang on, she's had a DNI. She's the head of, Admiral Haynes has
00:14:00.800
had a DNI. Director of national intelligence, correctly. I beg your pardon. Director of national
00:14:04.760
intelligence. Exactly right. Hang on. I just want to make sure you understand, but hang on, slow down.
00:14:10.400
Tell me what West exec is. Refresh the audience's memory, because this is another bombshell they never
00:14:14.920
want to talk about, and why the good admiral was essentially a lobbyist, an unregistered foreign
00:14:21.840
agent for the CCP at West exec, sir? Well, I think a number of these folks were. They were not
00:14:29.420
officially lobbyists, because they supposedly did not try to get federal funds for their clients.
00:14:39.000
So they don't tell us who their clients are. They don't disclose how much money they took in.
00:14:43.860
And they try to play games with even who was on the payroll. For example, Averill Haynes' name was
00:14:50.220
removed from the list, even though she worked there for three years. So it's a, it's a racket,
00:14:57.540
basically, that was used, I think, as part of the larger Biden enterprise, now doing business as the
00:15:04.420
Biden administration, to garner funds from the Chinese Communist Party. So there's another example
00:15:11.020
of the enemy within problem. Another that Reggie Littlejohn is going to talk with us about
00:15:16.780
is the Biden team's efforts to abandon our sovereignty to the World Health Organization.
00:15:23.600
And unbelievably, Steve, we've got breaking news here that the Congress of the United States and
00:15:29.560
Joe Biden have collaborated to greenlight that action. It's unbelievable. Then finally, we've got
00:15:36.040
tomorrow in our Committee on the Present Danger China webinar, the picture of Wall Street collaborating
00:15:43.260
with our enemy to finance its unrestricted warfare against us with your money, folks. So we've got a
00:15:51.240
very rich tapestry here to unwind. And we're going to disclose how seriously penetrated we are and why
00:16:00.440
Mike Gallagher, the chairman of the Select Committee in the House of Representatives, supposedly studying
00:16:06.960
the Chinese Communist Party threat, must revisit a statement he made yesterday on Face the Nation to
00:16:16.200
the extent that he said, quote, questioning anybody's loyalty to the United States is beyond the pale,
00:16:27.780
unquote. Not only is it not beyond the pale, Congressman, it is job one for your committee.
00:16:33.980
Right. No, no, no. Hey, we got it. We got it. And then he went on. Then he went on to trade. He's from
00:16:40.800
Wisconsin to trash my man McCarthy. Remember the whole thing of McCarthy and how McCarthy came to
00:16:45.860
light. And we know from the Venona. In fact, I'm going to get the world's expert Trevor Loudon on here
00:16:50.100
a second. The Venona after the KGB fell, we know now that I.F. Stone and all these KGB agents in the
00:16:56.720
place was infested. State Department and U.S. government's infested with communists. This is why
00:17:01.000
with the Patton's army didn't go to Berlin. This is why Montgomery was held back. This is why we let
00:17:05.320
the Red Army take it. This is what Joe McCarthy came to power because of who lost China in 1949.
00:17:12.320
Here's the history that's not taught to this country. Our ally, look, the English were allies.
00:17:16.680
Don't get me wrong. Right. We've had a great relationship, a special relationship. But they
00:17:20.000
were fighting for an empire and the royal family was not with us. They were trying to cut a deal with
00:17:23.940
Hitler the entire time. The English working people, the same ones in the Midlands that wanted Brexit
00:17:30.760
and backed Nigel Farage on Brexit, were the same ones that had Churchill's back, that wanted Churchill's
00:17:36.100
prime minister. Our two central allies in World War II were the Chinese people and the Russian people,
00:17:42.360
the Chinese Lao Bajing and the Russian peasants and serfs. They're the ones that took the brunt of the
00:17:47.060
Wehrmacht and the Japanese Imperial Army. And we left them to themselves with the Bolsheviks in
00:17:54.180
charge. And worse, if it could be considered worse, Mao Zedong. And we put Mao Zedong there.
00:18:00.260
Mao Zedong was put there because a communist in the State Department who lost China in 1949
00:18:04.960
drove the entire exposure of communism in our country and drove it. And McCarthy drove it out,
00:18:11.300
exposed it. And I'm telling you, who was his wingman? Robert F. Kennedy Jr. He was in the junior
00:18:16.920
lawyers on there and he was just as tough. And another guy who backed him up was Jack Kennedy.
00:18:21.400
That's when the vote came to censure McCarthy. Jack Kennedy had a bad back that day and couldn't
00:18:25.400
make the vote. His old man said, you're not going to censure McCarthy. You want to be president of
00:18:28.940
the United States. And everybody in the United States, everybody around knows that the place
00:18:32.260
is infiltrated with communists. Let me bring in Trevor now. Trevor Loudon is the world's expert on
00:18:37.580
this. Trevor gave me this lecture 12 years ago. And it's so overwhelming as almost to be
00:18:43.460
unbelievable. But Trevor Loudon has been right about every topic on this he's brought up.
00:18:49.100
I want to go, by the way, can we have, I want to have, let me have the guy, let's play the short
00:18:53.960
clip. I want to bring in Trevor after he hasn't responded to this. Do you think Congressman Chu
00:19:00.180
I think everyone that's standing up for Chinese Communist Party should be looked into. Yes,
00:19:09.840
I question her either loyalty or competence. If she doesn't realize what's going on,
00:19:14.780
then she's totally out of out of touch with one of her core constituencies. I think she has drug
00:19:20.180
along the other Chinese American members to sign this letter. But I do think she's the ringleader.
00:19:25.400
And I'm really disappointed and shocked that someone like Judy Chu would have a security
00:19:29.680
clearance and be entitled to confidential intelligence briefings until this is figured out.
00:19:36.580
Well, she's entitled more than confidential. Trust me. She's at secret and top secret.
00:19:42.480
Trevor Loudon, not only should we call everybody into question, and this is not racist,
00:19:46.580
we're going for the Americans. We're going for the Americans that are back in this playoff.
00:19:50.500
And Judy Chu is an American. She was born here. She's a Chinese American. But hey, I founded the
00:19:56.080
organization that is essentially the government in opposition trying to take down the CCP. You're
00:20:00.360
not going to run the racist trap on us. That is nonsense. Tell me about Judy Chu, though. How
00:20:05.460
questionable is she in her judgment and her loyalty, sir?
00:20:10.580
Well, Judy Chu spent many years in the Maoist student movement. She spent about 20 years actively
00:20:17.840
involved with people in the Communist Workers' Party, which was a pro-Chinese, pro-North Korean
00:20:25.120
militant party. They dissolved in the late 80s. They moved into the Democratic Party. But Judy Chu
00:20:32.880
continued to work with those people like Kent Wong, like Gene Kwan, like Jose Calderon, right up to the
00:20:41.500
present day. She is also involved with the Committee of 100, which is, I would say, the leading Chinese
00:20:51.220
influence operation in the country, directly linked to the Communist Party of China's international work
00:20:59.980
front. It's the main propaganda front, the main influence operation front of the Communist Party
00:21:07.600
of China. She has used that position to defend several Chinese spies in this country. She's used
00:21:15.040
that position to go after alleged racism in the military, sexism in the military. You know, I know
00:21:23.360
people in journalism in Southern California who have worked for the Chinese press, the Communist Chinese
00:21:31.520
press. And she is regarded in Southern California by the Chinese community as China's representative
00:21:38.960
in Southern California. If they want to know what the CCP is thinking, they listen to Judy Chu. She calls
00:21:47.840
the shots. She has no loyalty to America. Her loyalty has always been to China. She went to China not long
00:21:55.680
ago and said, I'm coming home. You know, she was had a little CCP flag right next to her. She has been
00:22:03.040
intimately involved with the Communist Party of China since she was a teenager, and she still is. She's
00:22:10.080
absolutely no, there's no way she should be trusted at all. The CCP, what they tried, that's why they got the
00:22:18.480
police stations. Their whole thing is to harass, harass and threaten people who escaped from mainland
00:22:25.600
China or people who have been here for several generations of actually coming forward and putting
00:22:29.440
up a take down the CCP movement. This is one of the reasons they infiltrated so many of the groups
00:22:33.840
out of Tiananmen Square. It's the reason the Tiananmen Square movement kind of died out. The CCP has,
00:22:38.880
and they intimidate, this is the police stations, they're watching you in the neighborhoods.
00:22:42.800
This is what, it's not, we're protecting the Chinese and Chinese Americans, and particularly
00:22:48.640
people who left the mainland. The CCP is brutal and going after them. Tell me about, Judy Chu,
00:22:55.120
when you say that she's kind of the mouthpiece for the CCP, and the journalists in Southern California
00:22:59.920
say, hey, if we want to know what the CCP's latest line of thought is, we listen to Judy. What do you
00:23:05.920
mean by that? Well, look, I've talked to journalists who work for Chinese publications in Southern
00:23:12.240
California have been to many meetings, and she was regarded by the Chinese community in Southern
00:23:18.400
California as the Communist Party of China's mouthpiece. She is like the governor of Southern
00:23:25.680
California over that community. Much like the late Rose Pack was the sort of CCP's mouthpiece,
00:23:34.000
the guardian of CCP's influence in San Francisco, Judy Chu fulfills the same role in Southern California.
00:23:42.240
She is completely, you know, her whole communist background brings her to be basically a mouthpiece
00:23:50.560
for the CCP. Trevor, talk to us about, tell the audience about United Front. Talk about groups
00:23:56.400
like Comedian One, because they have all these different front groups, and they get these great
00:24:00.080
names, like they're helping people out, all that. Talk about how they infiltrate, not just the American
00:24:06.400
side of it, or the non-Chinese side, but really how they use the Chinese here, and they do it under
00:24:12.720
threats to have this kind of united front to propagate their rule in Beijing.
00:24:19.680
Well, that's right. So they have a huge Chinese diaspora around the world, you know, several
00:24:24.320
hundred thousand in Southern California alone. And they're involved in business and academia and
00:24:29.920
politics. And when they get to a critical mass, these Chinese Americans can affect local elections,
00:24:38.640
and they can set up power bases, as they did in San Francisco, as they have in parts of Southern
00:24:44.160
California. Then they are used to elect candidates like Judy Chu, who basically run these fiefdoms.
00:24:52.480
And so through the Committee of 100 to the Chinese Progressive Association in San Francisco,
00:24:58.640
the Chinese Communist Party directly influences the politics of whole regions of the United States.
00:25:07.520
Started in San Francisco, you see a lot of it in New York now, you see a lot of it in Massachusetts and
00:25:13.520
Boston, and a lot of it in Southern California. So the International Work Department is co-opting
00:25:21.280
businessmen, it's intimidating people, it's setting up little front groups, little Chinese CCP rara groups,
00:25:30.480
and it's intimidating anybody who supports Taiwan, intimidating the Falun Gong people,
00:25:37.360
anybody who's opposed to the CCP. They use their thugs, they use their businesses,
00:25:44.560
they use their local politicians to harass and shut these people down.
00:25:49.520
And it's gone way beyond the Chinese community now. You know, you see people like Dianne Feinstein are
00:25:55.680
certainly under the influence of this kind of thing, Senator Dianne Feinstein, but also Adam Schiff,
00:26:02.320
you know, the former head of the Intelligence Committee. He is very, very heavily involved in the
00:26:09.120
Committee of 100 and has been for at least 15 years. He's met with very senior Chinese Communist Party
00:26:17.280
officials under the auspices of the Committee of 100. But he has the gall to accuse Trump of
00:26:25.840
Russia collusion when he's been working with the CCP for 15 years.
00:26:30.320
Trevor, hang on for one second. We're gonna take a short commercial break. I got Trevor Loudon,
00:26:35.600
we've got Reggie Littlejohn, the great Frank Gaffney, all over and get to the bottom of this. And
00:26:40.320
by the way, we haven't even gotten to Swalwell and Fang Fang, right? Well, he says,
00:26:44.160
oh, as soon as the FBI briefed me, well, dude, you shouldn't be putting yourself in that situation.
00:26:47.920
It doesn't matter. As soon as the FBI briefed you, too late. Short commercial break. Back with the
00:26:52.800
team from the Committee on the Present Danger, China, next in the war room.
00:27:09.920
A lot of people complain about the state of our country or the way woke corporations treat us

00:31:24.840
Okay, welcome back. Trevor Loudon is with us. Trevor, I'm confused. Do we have a security review
00:31:51.040
right now for these members of Congress to make sure that they're actually – so you don't end up
00:31:55.460
to a Swalwell situation where you've got a guy that's on the Intelligence Committee with the
00:31:59.500
highest classified stuff we have, and he's sleeping with the enemy. He's sleeping with a Chinese spy.
00:32:05.060
Do we have – are these congressmen vetted right now before you give them security clearances and
00:32:13.060
There are no security clearances in Congress. This is a popular myth.
00:32:16.660
You have to be – you have to get a security clearance to serve in the Department of Defense,
00:32:23.880
but you don't need one to chair the Armed Services Committee. The argument is the people
00:32:28.480
vet the candidates and the media helps you do it. Well, we've seen how that's turned out.
00:32:35.040
So, yeah, that's a massive gap. You know, there are no security clearances.
00:32:39.660
I say there's about 100 people in the House and 40 people in the U.S. Senate
00:32:44.500
who couldn't pass a security background check to drive a school bus in any county in America.
00:32:54.400
Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hit rewind.
00:33:01.680
There's about 100 members of the House and about 40 members of the U.S. Senate
00:33:07.120
who are so enmeshed with China, the local communists, with Cuba or other national security
00:33:13.120
threats, they couldn't get a security clearance to drive a school bus in any county in the
00:33:27.160
And as they control the budget of the FBI, the FBI doesn't dare go after them either.
00:33:37.120
Frank, what's going to be – I mean, the committee has done so much great work.
00:33:40.520
What is the issue we're going to do here to get our arms around this?
00:33:45.420
This is unacceptable to know that we have people that are totally unvetted.
00:33:49.940
Local media and these House races, you don't have time to vet them.
00:33:52.520
And the people don't know, right, because they're being spun nonstop.
00:34:00.740
And we'll start with Chu, but we've got to get to the bottom.
00:34:03.400
If Trevor's saying there's 100 in the House and 40 in the Senate, we've got to get to the
00:34:09.560
Steve, what we've tried to do so far is in about 70 different webinars that we've conducted
00:34:16.160
in just about the past six months, we've been looking at both the unrestricted warfare that
00:34:20.960
the Chinese Communist Party has been waging against us, looking specifically at how they're doing it
00:34:27.040
and the damage that's being done, and looking at the people in our country who are enabling it,
00:34:33.520
many of whom, as Trevor has said, are in Congress or in the Biden administration,
00:34:39.400
starting with the commander-in-chief himself, Joe Biden.
00:34:43.320
But then you've got them in these various other sectors of our economy as well.
00:34:47.680
And our answer to that question, Steve, in the indictment is we need to prosecute the Chinese
00:34:54.640
Communist Party for war crimes against our country and crimes against humanity.
00:34:59.840
And we similarly need to prosecute those who have been aiding and abetting them, which is
00:35:09.520
This is what Mike Gallagher, I think, needs to be focused on.
00:35:12.600
I pray he will in the course of this select committee.
00:35:16.680
And so should all of the other committees, Armed Services Committee, Intelligence Committee,
00:35:21.000
the Homeland Security Committee, and on and on, in both the House and the Senate, for heaven's sakes.
00:35:29.620
His new book about the security risk senators should be required reading for every American
00:35:36.040
patriot, because it's an insight, as his enemies within his other major tome, into who these
00:35:42.220
people are and what their relationships are with our enemies.
00:35:46.860
That needs to be investigated, and they should not have clearances unless they pass background
00:35:52.200
investigations, not by political appointees, by the way, but by credentialed counterintelligence
00:36:01.780
John Solomon brings up the Shoran, or Shoran is the lawyer.
00:36:05.940
He is now working with Commerce Committee, going to testify.
00:36:09.260
This is one of the reasons I keep saying Biden hasn't announced right yet.
00:36:12.040
They got all kind of bombshells that are coming out about his relationship, financial relationship
00:36:16.540
Let me get Colonel Grant Newsom on here for a moment.
00:36:19.860
Grant, it's the middle of the night where you are.
00:36:22.620
Tell the audience, though, about the CCP's infiltration, the pressure they put on business,
00:36:26.740
and what they do to really get their way with us, because this is far deeper than just
00:36:32.700
And I want people to know it's far deeper than just certain people that have come, either
00:36:37.460
Chinese Americans or people who come from the mainland that are still in the service
00:36:42.480
This is American citizens, business, academia, the titans of Wall Street, the oligarchs in
00:36:53.340
Well, the Chinese have been very successful and for a very long time, effectively using
00:36:58.720
proxies, Americans, to really further Chinese interests.
00:37:06.800
Particularly Wall Street, the business class, they effectively smell Chinese money.
00:37:18.520
And what they do is they have made sure that the American government really never cracks
00:37:29.380
They were instrumental in getting China into the World Trade Organization in the early 2000s.
00:37:35.220
And that has really opened the floodgates, hollowed out American manufacturing, moved it
00:37:40.820
And what this also did was open us up to the fentanyl crisis, the fentanyl assault from the
00:37:47.520
Chinese Communist Party, which is killing upwards of 70,000 Americans a year.
00:37:52.140
But it is that co-opting of America's financial class, its business class, who think they absolutely
00:38:00.540
And that has caused, you know, really America to back off and really to let China have a
00:38:11.480
Well, I'd say go down any of the Wall Street firms.
00:38:14.060
And, you know, I've been reading their analysis for 20 years, and you probably have too.
00:38:19.280
And the number of times I have any heard anyone say, you know, investing money into a country
00:38:24.880
that doesn't have a legal system, where a contract means exactly what the dictator says.
00:38:32.460
Its intention is to put foreign businesses, American businesses out of business, and have
00:38:39.300
Nobody ever says this is a bad place to put your money.
00:38:44.120
When you get people, these proxies who think what they are doing makes sense, and that it's
00:38:49.220
statesmanlike, and that it's in America's interest, you've really hit a grand slam.
00:38:53.740
And you have to give the Chinese some credit for that.
00:38:57.560
The U.S.-China Business Council, if you want to look at that, just look at some of their
00:39:03.680
And it's effectively shilling for the United States.
00:39:11.720
All you have to do is offer a nice donation to a China center and send in a lot of full tuition
00:39:18.920
But back to the military, just to give you an example of how bad it was.
00:39:25.280
But still, there's plenty of people who are just desperate to engage with China.
00:39:30.100
In 2009, the commander of U.S.-Indo-PACOM, Admiral Thomas Keating, was visiting China.
00:39:36.420
And he was asked, and he said, I'd be glad to help the Chinese develop aircraft carriers.
00:39:49.420
And by then, it was very clear what the Chinese had in mind.
00:39:52.600
So this is, you can see, you get a sense of the scope, the breadth of the Chinese really
00:39:59.720
subversion of otherwise right-thinking Americans.
00:40:03.460
But pretty much all you have to do in the financial and business classes is wave some money at them.
00:40:09.820
And unfortunately, most of them will perform like a sea lion at SeaWorld who thinks he's
00:40:19.520
These are the people who contribute to Capitol Hill, to congressmen and senators for their
00:40:27.300
And they have immense, immense power, as is well-known.
00:40:32.100
Even the Trump administration, which had some of the best advisors on China ever, they were
00:40:37.320
fighting this internal battle against the Wall Street, the business class, really representatives,
00:40:47.960
And it was probably as fierce a fight as they were fighting against the Chinese.
00:41:02.760
Talking about Capitol Hill, talking about pressure, talking about people not interested in the
00:41:08.740
Let me bring Reggie in because we have an urgent issue that needs to be addressed.
00:41:14.160
Reggie, I thought we put this WHO thing to bed.
00:41:20.400
Walk us through the urgent task before us on the Biden administration and looks like the
00:41:27.120
House about to give away American sovereignty to WHO, a Chinese-controlled operation in Geneva.
00:41:33.040
So, Steve, the message went out that when the international health regulations did not come
00:41:50.960
That working group met last week on the international health regulations.
00:41:55.020
Another working group on a new pandemic instrument, which is really a treaty, is working this week.
00:42:01.780
Those two different instruments put together will completely damage or destroy the sovereignty
00:42:09.760
of the United States, put us in a digital surveillance state.
00:42:13.400
And the thing that's the breaking news that we just learned about Friday is that there's, in the National Defense Authorization Act, buried in this 1772-page document, on page 950, there is another act.
00:42:31.020
And it's called the International Pandemic Preparedness Act.
00:42:35.920
And according to Frances Boyle, who's going to be one of our panelists today, there's a clause in here in which Congress already passed pre-approval for whatever the WHO agrees to.
00:42:58.160
The WHO, people don't realize this, the way that the World Health Assembly works is that every country gets one vote.
00:43:06.260
And if a majority of countries vote for something, it passes.
00:43:10.140
What this act does is it makes it so that if these horrible international health regulation amendments pass, if this terrible pandemic treaty passes, that it will subvert the advice and consent of the Senate
00:43:25.300
and become law automatically through a clause that is in this International Pandemic Preparedness Act that was passed last December.
00:43:38.440
You're talking to me in the defense authorization that then was rounded up into the omnibus that paid for it.
00:43:46.120
And what it specifically says we've pre-approved what's going on in Geneva right now?
00:43:54.920
Okay, so it's in the National Defense Authorization Act, which itself is 1,772 pages.
00:44:01.340
Okay, on page 950, there's something called the International Pandemic Preparedness Act.
00:44:07.880
And according to Dr. Francis Boyle, who's going to be a panelist in our webinar today and who is a graduate of Harvard Law School,
00:44:17.940
he actually drafted the implementation of the U.S. Biological Warfare Act, okay, the act that's against biological weapons.
00:44:27.080
He says that, and I'm looking at Subtitle D, Section 55602C6, okay, it says here,
00:44:41.620
the purpose of this act is to facilitate national capacity to comply with and adhere to the National Health Regulations of 2005.
00:44:49.940
Okay, we know what those are, but number six is any other relevant frameworks that contribute to global health security.
00:44:57.660
So what Dr. Francis Boyle says, and he is an expert in international law,
00:45:02.340
is that that is a catch-all that can be used to pre-approve anything that they come up with at the World Health Organization.
00:45:11.840
Okay, let us, I tell you what, we're going to have you back on tomorrow.
00:45:14.900
Overnight tonight, we're going to work on this and get to the bottom of it,
00:45:17.820
because this is exactly the type of okie-dokie they like to do when they want to get something.
00:45:23.360
This is what they tuck in these omnibus bills is they tuck, we've argued about this defense authorization.
00:45:29.600
It needed a lot more scrutiny because it got dumped on people.
00:45:32.400
So, Reggie, hang on, we're going to get you back on tomorrow.
00:45:35.280
We're going to go through this because we've been working this WHO thing for months and months and months,
00:45:40.660
and to now know that, hey, there might be something pre-approved is outrageous.
00:45:44.400
Frank, in the time I've got remaining, though, here's what I want to do.
00:45:46.760
I want to go around to you guys and tell what needs to be done.
00:45:51.960
Like, what needs to be done now to make sure that we can start to highlight the subversion that's going on in our country
00:45:58.620
and bring it to light on Capitol Hill and in this administration?
00:46:08.260
Just, I would say, the indictment will give people 20 action items.
00:46:13.620
It should be out, I'm hoping, late next month, that will start with, among other things,
00:46:20.340
identifying the Chinese Communist Party as what it is, a completely illegitimate transnational criminal organization.
00:46:29.620
If we get that right, an awful lot of other things, including the funding of these guys with our money, starts getting a lot more tractable.
00:46:41.160
Elite capture has to be stopped, and the accountability that we're talking about with the select committee is key to that,
00:46:47.580
as is the work that you do here in the war room, day after day after day, Steve, and I can't thank you enough for it.
00:46:54.580
Trevor Lunds got his own ideas, but this is a starting point.
00:46:58.800
I'm going to come to Trevor and Kent right now, but real quickly.
00:47:01.940
I mean, look, Gallagher is a very brave young Marine.
00:47:08.420
But how – when a guy sits there and he's trashing McCarthy, he says, McCarthy's from my district, he ought to stay in his grave or something like that.
00:47:23.420
McCarthy was the font of all truth to get this rolling and to expose these communists that were deeply embedded into the American government.
00:47:41.160
And ever since then, the idea that there could possibly be enemies within our country has been absolutely a taboo subject.
00:47:50.720
Unfortunately, as I think it was Martin Dees, a congressman who, before Joe McCarthy, was digging into the enemies within, the communists who had gotten inside our government.
00:47:59.940
Diana West has a marvelous book on this subject called American Betrayal.
00:48:04.000
He warned McCarthy, they will destroy you if you go here.
00:48:07.720
And I think Mike Gallagher is a little nervous about that, understandably.
00:48:13.460
If his committee doesn't do the due diligence on the fact that we do have people in our Congress and elsewhere, as Trevor Loudoun has documented, who are disloyal to our country,
00:48:25.940
we may miss the last opportunity we have to make a course correction and defeat the Chinese Communist Party instead of being destroyed by them.
00:48:43.460
What do we need to do immediately to get to the bottom of this and make sure that we can begin to expose these traitors?
00:48:55.300
Look, if you are Xi Jinping, think about it logically.
00:49:01.140
Do you risk a multi-billion dollar trade war you might lose?
00:49:04.780
Or do you risk a multi-trillion dollar shooting war before you're ready?
00:49:08.540
Or do you spend a couple of billion dollars buying up American congressmen and senators to wreck the U.S. military, to keep the borders open, to gut the U.S. middle class and turn this country into chaos?
00:49:22.160
So that, you know, that's the same shameless self-promotion, you know, enemies, you know, security risk senators, Trevor Loudoun.com, 30 senators profiled their links to the CCP, their links to Iran, their links to the communist movement.
00:49:39.180
We need to confront the reality, all of us, that the only reason America is in the trouble it is, is because we have people in our system who are working for our enemies.
00:49:51.200
Do you think America, you know, the enemy knew long ago they could never take America from the outside.
00:50:02.580
The Soviets tried it, but they didn't have enough money.
00:50:09.540
They get the left through the ideology and the money.
00:50:12.260
And they have enough influence now to determine which legislation passes our Congress and which doesn't.
00:50:19.000
So we've got to put pressure on Mr. Gallagher to go all the way.
00:50:24.020
This has got to name names and there's got to be prosecutions coming out of this.
00:50:28.860
The American people have to see people going to jail for what they're doing.
00:50:45.140
You know, that's, that's, you know, people got to know.
00:50:59.200
Grant, we got to bounce, but Grant, how do they get to your social media?
00:51:04.120
It's NewshamGrantDuck, whatever the Twitter thing is.
00:51:11.700
Also, all, everything I have right is on Center for Security Policy webpage.
00:51:17.540
And I've also got a book coming out March 28th as well, which addresses the Chinese threat, how we got here, what the problem is, what to do about it.
00:51:25.640
And since Trevor has sort of blazed a path, I actually happen to have a copy with me, an advanced copy.
00:51:35.880
By Grant, and available on Amazon, or the usual places.
00:51:46.940
