00:00:00.000 this is what you're fighting for I mean every day you're out there what they're doing is blowing
00:00:10.680 people off if you continue to look the other way and shut up then the oppressors the authoritarians
00:00:18.440 get total control and total power because this is just like in Arizona this is just like in
00:00:23.900 Georgia it's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and 0.99
00:00:28.340 misrepresentations is why this audience is going to have to get engaged as we've told you this is
00:00:32.620 the fight all this nonsense all this spin they can't handle the truth war room battleground here's
00:00:39.660 your host Stephen K Bannon okay welcome it's Wednesday 28 June year of our Lord 2023 got a lot
00:00:47.200 to get a lot to get to today and I want to start with Brian Costello Brian you made the front page
00:00:55.300 or the Sequoia story made the front page of the Wall Street Journal if Memphis can can pull that
00:00:59.740 up I think we've got we can show that Brian talk to us about this article a lot's going on my phone's
00:01:06.080 been blown up in the last two days you've gone on there it is right there the Wall Street Journal
00:01:10.860 page one story already people because McCarthy had a very bad day on Wall Street yesterday the
00:01:18.820 they've CNN has said they call MSNBC but he groveled the Trump
00:01:25.300 after he you know he said Trump wasn't the best candidate then he groveled to Trump and got a
00:01:30.680 puff piece written with some quotes and exclusive over at Breitbart but he groveled to Trump to
00:01:35.500 apologize and then his henchmen we talked about last hour Paul Ryan came out and said Trump was
00:01:40.220 dangerous that Trump could win and that was dangerous for the country so this elite in the
00:01:46.360 Republican Party is quickly closing ranks Brian give us an update on this story it's starting to
00:01:51.800 metastasize now we know there's a lot of work going behind the scenes talk to us about uh Sequoia
00:01:57.240 Capital finally had their debut here in the Wall Street Journal yeah Steve I don't know if uh
00:02:03.140 I'll speak for McCarthy's having a better day today because he's with Kevin Turner in Ohio so
00:02:07.540 uh not Kevin not Kevin not Kevin hang on hang on hang on it's Mike Turner Mike Turner Mike
00:02:14.180 Mike Turner sorry Mike Turner I should know that so what is he that's a very important element of the
00:02:19.460 story what is he doing with Mike Turner out in uh out in Ohio today Mike Turner is the head of the
00:02:24.300 Republican head of the Intelligence Committee that shut down the investigation into Sequoia
00:02:29.620 walk us through what why is important they're at some sort of while Weinstraub who's on uh
00:02:36.540 Representative Weinstraub who's on the Intelligence Committee and one of the higher ranking members is uh
00:02:40.940 uh there too uh they're at some ceremony coincidentally in Ohio today as as the
00:02:46.160 Sequoia cover-up in the house intel with Turner breaks as you know McCarthy's getting rung through
00:02:52.240 the the mill because of a bunch of Turner's actions uh related to one of his top donors it's just
00:02:58.840 coincidental that they're there today I don't know what ceremony they're actually at Steve but
00:03:03.440 they're at some opening of something talk talk talk talk to me talk to me about when you say he's
00:03:08.900 being rung through the the ringer he's being put through the ringer because of activities related to
00:03:13.800 his biggest donor Sequoia Capital and the cover-up Walker I want our audience understand Sequoia
00:03:19.880 Capital McCarthy what they did and what's the cover-up let's connect let's lay out the building
00:03:25.740 blocks and then connect them yeah so like as you as you covered on your show Steve it was it was an
00:03:31.280 open secret in Washington that America's preeminent venture firm Sequoia Capital the guy running their
00:03:38.120 Chinese fund but also one of the global stewards of the whole firm was a guy named Neil Shen who works
00:03:43.900 for the Chinese government so there was a lot of concern as the investment the investments were
00:03:48.980 going more and more directly towards weapons and things that impacted our national security
00:03:53.080 but the risk of the flow of capital to investments was uh uh getting more and more questioned in terms
00:04:00.100 of the profit everybody was making so there were two investigations going on Nunes opened after the
00:04:05.040 Russia hoax investigation put the whole team that was remaining there uh Colonel Harvey Colonel Pappas
00:04:11.140 other folks it was the team that cash was on on the China investigation uh to look at how Wall
00:04:17.620 Street was using uh or how the CCP was using Wall Street in China it's actually interesting Steve you see
00:04:24.340 in the news today she's going directly to the business leaders now because he doesn't isn't getting
00:04:29.180 what he necessarily wants from the U.S. government I don't know if it isn't what he gets wants he
00:04:33.900 doesn't respect him enough to even deal with him he knows who's running the country and it's the
00:04:37.520 folks in there the folks stuff in the politicians pockets so he's going directly to the business
00:04:42.800 community today so Nunes and Harvey ahead of the curve again were investigating this in parallel
00:04:49.140 the SEC should have been investigating Gary Gensler who was Hillary Clinton's CFO of her campaign 0.86
00:04:56.880 signing the checks for the Russia hoax uh is now the chairman of the Securities Exchange Commission
00:05:02.500 he should have been investigating Shen from Sequoia with two associates and a number of claims that I
00:05:08.480 brought to the SEC and then there should have been a third investigation which is the FBI and the DOJ
00:05:14.620 which was ongoing so there were three investigations kind of happening in parallel so back to your
00:05:21.140 question about Turner when Nunes left Turner shut down the investigation he walked the team
00:05:28.720 that did the Russia hoax investigation and uncovered the weaponization of the Department of Justice and
00:05:35.500 Intelligence community out the door he shut the China investigation down Sequoia never responded to
00:05:41.540 the questionnaire and Doug Leone and his wife from Sequoia started becoming McCarthy's top donor
00:05:49.300 and I don't know and I believe two of McCarthy's people were briefed on the Sequoia investigation and I
00:05:57.980 know I sent an email to one of them over a year ago warning them that I was a source for a house intel
00:06:05.380 investigation and this is one of McCarthy's direct reports that handles national security and that they
00:06:12.120 should be very careful with the money they were taking from Sequoia I never received a response
00:06:18.180 that's a hang on hang on that's a bombshell stop you're saying that you went and this is after so
00:06:24.780 people have to understand there's three lines of inquiry here one there's a house intel and this is
00:06:30.340 the reason Nunez and you go back in time we're starting to actually have some public hearings the whole
00:06:35.620 formation of Mike Gallagher's the China the select committee on China came out of public hearings
00:06:43.640 that Devin Nunez was doing in regards to China internally they said we really got to ramp this
00:06:50.760 investigation up from the house intel side and what he did is he deputized Pappas and Colonel Harvey
00:06:57.500 his top two guys to really get serious about this what they did is first they looked around they talked
00:07:02.860 and they it's quite because as Costello said it's an open secret what they did is they sent a letter
00:07:09.320 of inquiry to to go ahead they sent a letter of inquiry to to Sequoia in addition the SEC should
00:07:15.560 have had something with all the securities violations and the FBI DOJ was doing something but the bombshell
00:07:21.160 here is you said you went directly to you went directly to the direct report for national security for
00:07:27.060 McCarthy and you told them that they about the house intel investigation they shouldn't
00:07:32.780 shut it down and about taking money from Sequoia yeah I was a source for the investigation I was
00:07:37.700 there who anybody who needed it to provide them the information to help the country and that I saw
00:07:44.560 that Sequoia was now making donations to McCarthy and that they should be very careful with that there's
00:07:49.200 claims sitting and people need to know Steve the the house intel and the China committee are select
00:07:55.160 committees so Speaker McCarthy appoints directly who's running those and who's on the committees they're
00:08:01.700 not they don't go through the standard committee process and here's another one for your show
00:08:08.220 and I actually think he's doing really good work but after Colonel Harvey and I were on Fox in November
00:08:15.000 and some of the Sequoia news started to break Maria asked Representative Gallagher who's running the
00:08:22.320 committee about Sequoia and we could probably get this clip at some point but what he said was we're
00:08:29.680 doing so we did some really good work in the house intel committee on that well if the really good
00:08:35.340 work is shutting down the investigation and letting Sequoia be the only firm that didn't respond what's
00:08:41.140 bad work talk about their arrogance about not responding I think Harvey sent him two letters two
00:08:48.040 letters of inquiry to turn over the following documents or be subpoenaed they don't even answer what
00:08:53.020 they their answer is to pay Kevin McCarthy to send and and people understand it they've got a whole
00:08:59.540 cash flow they have a whole cash flow machine under Mike Moritz that goes right to Democrats in fact
00:09:03.500 they give well 10 times more to Democrats they give to Republicans so now we do know right he wrote
00:09:09.740 checks to McCarthy and they don Vieira from Sequoia uh who used to be in the national security division
00:09:17.220 under Monaco and before that he was actually one of the councils for hip cities so he knows the process
00:09:22.160 and the importance of that in terms of protecting the country really well Don Vieira Sequoia's you know
00:09:27.620 uh chief lieutenant in Washington is he changed his title chief legal officer public policy officer
00:09:33.240 he started meeting with the national security folks so when house intel was going to do a criminal referral
00:09:39.500 was going to get subpoena power uh and has subpoena power when McCarthy became speaker in the house
00:09:47.160 flipped in January Sequoia doesn't respond they start writing checks to McCarthy one of the principles
00:09:52.880 from Sequoia um and they start doing there's all sorts of other stuff Steve in terms of Moritz does
00:09:59.440 to the Democrats where there's non-profits uh you know funding the demise of the uh the China program
00:10:05.460 at the DOJ and all these other things through the ACLU and through these vehicles they use and that
00:10:09.740 hold it hold on whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa let's unpack that right now what do you mean what
00:10:14.080 Moritz does so because here's the thing this this is people senior people in our government this the
00:10:18.960 elites in our country that are in bed and business partners with the Chinese Communist Party has sold
00:10:23.560 us out for money walk me through Moritz so so Sequoia was is basically it has a partnership structure
00:10:29.560 because it's a venture firm but it's basically right it's been run for years by two people Michael
00:10:33.140 Moritz who's a big uh left-leaning Democrat and Leone who's supposed to be uh uh uh a Republican
00:10:40.000 so they spread their donations to both sides right so Moritz has a Moritz lives in San Francisco a
00:10:46.940 couple houses away from uh former Speaker Pelosi runs in the same concentric circles as Pelosi and
00:10:53.560 Feinstein in San Francisco with the big tech elite he has a 4.2 billion dollar non-profit called Crankstart
00:11:00.700 so what he does is his China investments directly with his personal money into Sequoia's China's fund
00:11:07.240 flow back into this non-profit and people can validate this you can go on ProPublica and you
00:11:12.560 can get Crankstarts 990 and you can see his Sequoia China investments and the return and how they flow
00:11:18.340 back so Moritz gets this money back tax-free I might add so Biden's all yelling about the rich paying taxes
00:11:25.080 today when one of his top donors in the 2020 election has a slush fund for the Democratic Party with
00:11:31.420 uh China blood money coming into a San Francisco non-profit tax free um he then writes checks he's the 0.63
00:11:39.700 largest donor to the ACLU from a private foundation and then the ACLU starts lobbying the DOJ to end the
00:11:46.060 China initiative so the ACLU I thought it stand for American I think the C maybe should stand for China now 1.00
00:11:51.980 uh instead of civil that the money coming from that and Moritz put in 20 20 million that we know of
00:11:59.600 into the ACLU as part of a 300 million dollar campaign from his you know friends so the ACLU then starts
00:12:07.500 lobbying to end the DOJ China initiative the DOJ China initiative when Matt Olson who works for
00:12:14.440 Monaco and Garland and runs the national security division now announces he's ending it he references
00:12:20.740 uh pressure from civil liberties unions like the he didn't mention specifically the ACLU and pressure
00:12:29.860 from universities uh to end end the China initiative so you literally have you know Moritz from Sequoia
00:12:36.460 funding Democratic woke programs in San Francisco he's already funding Newsom right uh doing this all
00:12:44.280 tax-free out of his non-profit foundation that's paid for with China money there's a lot there
00:12:50.640 Steve I don't know if you want me to I want I want you to have me slow down no no no no it's
00:12:56.960 fantastic the China initiative when DOJ announced it what AC the ACLU complaint about the China and
00:13:03.720 the China initiative was a lot more talk than action I mean they're rolling up some professors
00:13:08.760 some guys that did GMOs it's all performative but at least it was something what is their complaint
00:13:13.760 against the China initiative I have I have the timing on this so Ray did a speech on uh January 28th at
00:13:21.280 the Reagan Institute 2022 and he talked about how bad China was and I believe at that point he knew
00:13:28.240 the DOJ and the Biden administration were ending the China program because the FBI really can't
00:13:34.660 prosecute anything without the DOJ support and I believe that was actually I give well I would have
00:13:41.480 resigned over it if they were ending something I didn't think they should end like that but he just
00:13:45.720 decided to do a speech over it he did a speech over it on the 28th so when I walked in a couple days
00:13:51.880 later into the FBI Washington field office revealing these claims I thought I was gonna you know uh
00:13:58.440 receive a round of applause and an exception not a not a buried investigation from DOJ main justice
00:14:04.160 because Ray was out talking about how important this was and what we had also shared with Shen is he runs
00:14:09.940 the Yale Center Beijing he's one of the top uh donors to Yale his number two is very involved in wait for
00:14:18.320 it UPenn uh at Sequoia uh some of his business associates have actually been documented donors
00:14:25.940 to UPenn and they're also the uh at Stanford the Center for Human Artificial Intelligence
00:14:34.100 is a friend of Shen's it's a Sequoia endowed professorship from a uh Chinese national from
00:14:39.580 Tsinghua University Fei Fei Li who's uh you know was infamous for being on the board of directors and
00:14:45.920 uh at Twitter and a bunch of things that she did when she was at Google in terms of writing a letter
00:14:50.520 criticizing the Department of Defense so she's actually the Sequoia endowed professor so here you have
00:14:55.900 Shen has used his tentacles investing in companies to penetrate into some of our top universities
00:15:01.100 um and and and here's another one in 2017 Steve uh Jake Sullivan gave a speech at the Yale Center
00:15:11.300 Beijing and I believe he was probably paid for by Shen in that group at the Yale Center Beijing to give
00:15:18.940 that speech it was in December 2017 when he was sitting on the bench at Yale but when those show up
00:15:23.860 in the financial disclosures they don't show up as Yale China payments Yale Center Beijing they show up
00:15:28.800 as Yale payments so they look innocuous so you got people in the administration who are making money
00:15:34.340 from this who are now in a position to actually have to pursue crimes
00:15:38.780 in your theory of the case is this is why there's been no pursuit of this do you believe in the
00:15:46.580 response you've gotten in just this initial Wall Street Journal article I already know and I can tell
00:15:52.340 you from the Republican side there's a lot of heat being put on McCarthy a lot of heat being put on
00:15:55.980 what's your overall belief in this story I have I have three theories on why nothing's being done
00:16:01.660 I mean I know why nothing's being done on the Republican side because the complexity of Sequoia
00:16:06.080 being a McCarthy donor uh why the DOJ the FBI the SEC aren't doing their job I believe a compromised
00:16:14.440 president they've been instructed to go soft on China to maintain the economic relations I believe this
00:16:21.080 involves their actual political donors and they don't want to upset the donors you know some of
00:16:25.840 the money they get from donors flows from their China returns and the third thing I believe is that
00:16:31.340 um you know we have this Chinese artificial intelligence platform in our country called
00:16:37.720 TikTok that can deliver content based on learning about users that becomes very important in an election
00:16:43.380 to be able to you know push out Trump indicted again Trump indicted again Trump bad Trump bad
00:16:49.000 oh look at Biden's great policies look at Biden's great policies no no no no no the reason by the
00:16:54.140 way the reason they were as close as they were in 2022 is 100% TikTok uh uh uh you know Matt Gates
00:17:00.520 can walk you right through that doesn't need to be the future in 22 the reason they closed some of
00:17:04.480 these these seats around you know abortion around the Dodds decision uh the Dodds was because of uh TikTok
00:17:12.200 they're they've already used TikTok TikTok was used to reach all these young women and to reach all
00:17:17.040 that's why they had this big turnout in colleges they've already weaponized TikTok 0.94
00:17:20.080 yeah I mean the day they were talking about banning it in a and Warner introduced his bogus bill that
00:17:27.840 he knew would never get through just to look like he was tough on China and Senate Intel that he knew
00:17:32.060 would never get through Biden actually had TikTok influencers in the White House not just TikTok
00:17:38.120 influence that TikTok had transgender TikTok influencers the the ultimate demise of Bud Light was 0.94
00:17:43.920 sitting there right in the Oval Office with him so yeah there's a there's a huge issue here too
00:17:48.880 Steve and it's like okay these influencers are they paying them or are they providing free services to
00:17:53.940 a campaign which is an election violation yeah uh Brian how do people get to you for your content
00:18:00.180 because I can tell you the Wall Street Journal article is starting to metastasize also there's a lot of
00:18:06.300 heat coming on from McCarthy about what's going on here and Mike Turner uh this investigation
00:18:11.940 House Intel will be re-kicked off they can't they can't because this is now going to this is now
00:18:16.280 going to slide into criminal activity uh by them they have a China committee now Steve what's the
00:18:22.920 China committee doing what's judiciary doing yes yes uh not much China committee is okay but it's
00:18:29.720 like geostrategic we got to get down to the weeds on this Brian where do people get you
00:18:34.400 on Twitter VP Costello
00:18:36.500 I hope as I said I hope you have uh plenty of good security because you were really out there on a
00:18:44.400 limb right now sir that's you've done a great service for your country hey not as much rattled
00:18:49.080 the cages of very powerful yeah well I know I've talked to some people in the military and I think
00:18:54.200 they have my back so I would if I'm going to have someone defending me I want it to be the American
00:18:58.000 military so the guys who talk to me remember that
00:19:00.260 okay well we're going to hold him to that uh Costello great job
00:19:05.600 the real one the real one thank you thank you Steve thank you brother um we're going to stay
00:19:13.500 on this story it's unacceptable let me just re reiterate Mike Turner Republican from Ohio
00:19:19.340 is taking his marching orders from McCarthy they have waived all this because they took money from
00:19:24.320 Sequoia and that is just one-tenth of what the problem is Mike Moritz and the Sequoia guy has been
00:19:30.100 funneling money into the Democratic Party including into the ACLU that was one of the big uh
00:19:35.440 instruments to get a DOJ to an FBI to stop the the little bit of the China initiative remember
00:19:41.940 Barr and Ray gave their speeches I would put them up about how they're going to get aggressive on
00:19:46.460 China and how China was the number one enemy of the United States the Chinese Communist Party
00:19:50.500 that initiative which didn't do great things you know rolled up some associate professors and
00:19:57.300 rolled up some individuals but at least it started putting a spotlight on this issue
00:20:01.800 nope they uh shut it down because of pressure quote-unquote from uh um civil rights groups when
00:20:11.640 this is not a civil rights issue remember it's the Chinese people it's Lao Bai Jing that are
00:20:16.600 enslaved by the CCP and the people here that will tell you like the new federal state of China and
00:20:21.900 others saying you have to take down the CCP because they're a dangerous criminal operation and we see
00:20:26.960 this from the Ministry of State Security and what they're putting up in Manhattan and other cities
00:20:32.260 around the world they put their own police stations up of course the DOJ knew that for years and looked
00:20:35.980 the other way until they had to have a counter for rolling up Miles Groh the one whistleblower we ever
00:20:41.360 had at the highest levels that knew about what the Chinese Communist Party were doing and and the one that was
00:20:46.920 giving all the information of course he's rolled up into prison uh and not out until his uh trial
00:20:52.860 of course all these other guys walked free that's it's not it this is a completely rigged game and is
00:20:59.040 rigged by money from the Chinese Communist Party the Chinese Communist Party must be taken down and
00:21:04.560 anybody that's been a collaborator with them must be tried for treason okay because they know what's
00:21:10.220 going on and they're in the employ of the Chinese Communist Party Melissa Ray your podcast has been on
00:21:16.740 fire really a special tomorrow I think it's a one o'clock once you talked about it you're you've got
00:21:21.580 a courageous reporter up there uh in Minneapolis that has written kind of a blockbuster book
00:21:27.680 on the uh on the unfortunate situation we had in was it June of uh of 2020 ma'am yeah three years ago
00:21:36.440 already you know thanks for having me back Steve so I'm the co-host of the Hope Report show we stream
00:21:40.920 live five days a week on Lindell TV Frank Speech YouTube all social media platforms but I've
00:21:46.620 really been here I am in the Twin Cities in this mecca of crime and social unrest and I've been
00:21:51.020 captivated really and burdened by the whole process the whole George Floyd situation namely
00:21:55.900 the process of really making Derek Chauvin the sacrificial lamb for all all social unrest that's
00:22:01.760 happened historically and I learned about Liz Collin and I knew about her she's a Minnesota reporter 0.82
00:22:07.680 I'm from Minnesota I was a reporter in the late 90s and early 2000s and I followed Liz's career for a
00:22:14.900 while and I learned more about her story in Candace Owens documentary on George Floyd the
00:22:19.180 biggest lie ever sold talking about what happened to Liz and her husband um former police lieutenant
00:22:26.120 Bob Kroll and she was actually you know she was a really familiar face here in the Twin Cities and
00:22:31.340 it's just terrible what happened to her how the the mob the woke mob nearly destroyed them but she
00:22:36.840 wrote an explosive book about this whole situation she is a real truth teller the book is called
00:22:42.280 They're Lying the Media the Left and the Death of George Floyd so just we're just really excited
00:22:47.640 to have Liz on tomorrow to talk about her new book she's been canvassing the state and really I think
00:22:52.940 throughout the country doing interviews so we'll we'll have her on tomorrow at one eastern for the
00:22:57.540 hope report you can find us anywhere social media Mike Lindell's channels but the book is really going
00:23:03.240 to reveal some cover-ups collusion hidden political connections in Minneapolis it and I just really
00:23:10.100 admire Liz for her courage and it tells the truth about the media and the left and really how we've
00:23:16.120 all been lied to so I couldn't be more excited to have Liz on and I've admired her career and
00:23:21.920 just thrilled to talk to her I mean we know about the corruption with BLM and about the 80 million
00:23:28.160 dollars raised after George Floyd's death it's really used to pour millions into trans causes and
00:23:33.940 by mansions and other dubious causes so it's going to be amazing to talk to Liz tomorrow I hope everyone
00:23:40.680 will join Jason Perry and me at one eastern for the hope reports we're just we're so blessed by Mike
00:23:46.180 Lindell to be able to have this internet tv show and it's grown from three days a week to now we're

00:25:23.360 important to this yes thank you so much Steve for the opportunity so I mentioned I was a news reporter
00:25:27.940 for many years after that I got into addiction counseling which paralleled my story of addiction
00:25:33.520 recovery and then I met Mike Lindell five years ago and he told me about this dream and this vision
00:25:38.060 he had to create a platform to help people struggling with addiction so a few years ago we collaborated
00:25:44.160 and put together the Lindell recovery network lindell recovery network.org it's free Mike has poured
00:25:49.680 millions of dollars into this platform to help people in it it's no cost to you you can go on
00:25:54.920 there and connect to powerful testimonials there's a church and treatment center database all of the
00:25:59.540 help is free or low cost we also have the cornerstone of our program which is the operation restored warrior
00:26:05.300 program you can go through the whole course for free Mike often talks about this being the way that
00:26:10.400 he was really filled with the Holy Spirit and led into a real relationship with Christ he considered himself a
00:26:15.500 Christian but didn't really think he was walking with Jesus so you can go on to lindellrecoverynetwork.org

00:31:42.540 okay welcome back our own natalie winters joins us natalie this has been a lot up
00:31:49.720 uh about one of your favorite topics but it's about there may be direct involvement and actually
00:31:55.000 financing by the chinese communist party so i want to take it from the top and you've heard you've
00:31:59.640 see you read the wall street journal today you've been all over this sequoia situation
00:32:02.840 you understand the rot the democratic party is essentially bought and paid for with ccp money 0.97
00:32:09.540 the uh you see that through mike moritz and the money they're funneling through sequoia
00:32:13.680 but it's also expanded now to the republican party so we have as you've been saying it's even beyond
00:32:19.660 elite capture now it's kind of elite merger but walk me through this this loud mouth who's been on tv
00:32:25.760 non-stop since he kind of got called out was it by elon musk or uh robert kennedy and uh and on the
00:32:33.200 joe rogan show and this guy went once again resurfaced he was on tv every second during the uh pandemic and
00:32:40.580 during the vaccine and now there's been some other uh investigation about his relationships i know
00:32:45.960 you've been all over this from the beginning so take it from the top and walk us through
00:32:49.020 today's subject sure well i i think our theory of the case has always been that basically the
00:32:55.760 entire democratic party and a lot of these established republicans have been bought off by
00:33:00.200 the chinese communist party and i think people who watch this show see that right you see the policy
00:33:04.720 outputs you see the weak controlled opposition china committees uh and you never really get any real
00:33:10.540 action but i think what we're learning now as the days go by is that this is sort of curated uh again
00:33:17.680 it's really just controlled opposition um of talking heads of pundits of politicians also extends um into
00:33:25.060 the realm of science and the pharmaceutical industry and specifically u.s taxpayer funded science i'm of course
00:33:31.740 talking about american researchers who receive your taxpayer dollars millions of them every year
00:33:37.640 uh from anthony fauci and now his uh his big pharma linked successor uh but a really interesting case of
00:33:45.040 this obviously people who watch the show are familiar with the names peter dawshak and ralph barrick
00:33:50.380 but what's so interesting is that these people are not isolated incidents there are a lot of americans
00:33:55.820 who have received taxpayer dollars from anthony fauci to fund research that is in not just collaboration but
00:34:02.380 frankly it's being spearheaded and controlled by the chinese communist party specifically the wuhan institute of
00:34:08.620 virology and their network of people's liberation army controlled labs and before we get into what exactly dr peter
00:34:15.620 hotez which is who we're talking about today what exactly he was doing and sort of the interesting similarities
00:34:21.620 that it bears to the whole entire covid-19 pandemic and more precisely covid-19 vaccines just to take a quick
00:34:28.740 step back because you were talking about the china initiative with uh brian and i think that that's a
00:34:33.720 really important point to make here sure the china initiative was sort of performative but the chinese 1.00
00:34:39.500 communist party vehemently detested the china initiative they went into overdrive pumping out
00:34:44.880 all of their surrogates using chinese state media and these kind of civil rights groups to decry it
00:34:50.020 as racist that was sort of the angle of attack that they took but one of the main tenets of the china 0.97
00:34:56.700 initiative was going after the thousand talents plan and the wuhan institute of virology is one of
00:35:02.620 the labs that participated i mean basically all of the labs in china do but if you read a lot of chinese
00:35:07.960 communist party literature in chinese language on the lab it's indisputable that the wuhan institute of
00:35:14.120 virology was actively engaged in recruiting foreign talents to come overseas and work with them in china
00:35:20.940 and that's why you see such a convergence really a confluence of these american scientists working
00:35:26.520 specifically at the wuhan institute of virology but the key point to make here is not just that we were
00:35:32.960 basically outsourcing scientific research and deadly pathogens and gain-of-function research but it's very
00:35:39.600 very curious like you always say there's no conspiracies but there are no coincidences a lot of these american
00:35:46.320 researchers who are caught up in this thousand talents s program at the wuhan institute of virology
00:35:53.580 in turn became some of the critics of people who promoted the lab leak theory and some of the loudest
00:36:00.740 proponents of the natural origins theory which is of course the chinese communist party's preferred
00:36:05.920 narrative on origins of coven this is where it really gets interesting because obviously the chinese
00:36:11.920 communist party makes it difficult to really find hard you know cold evidence right that the people
00:36:17.620 that they compromise are indeed compromised by them i'm not sure if you can you can hear me i will i
00:36:24.800 will keep talking um but yeah hang her for a second hang yeah sure sure sure hang her for a second 0.99
00:36:30.740 because it's coming in choppy can we get can we re can we reboot her real quickly uh
00:36:37.400 what natalie let's go and reboot natalie uh and what natalie's talking about is
00:36:44.760 the ccp funds these programs funds these programs at universities funds these programs uh in china
00:36:53.840 for people to come here funds these programs for people to work with them and this is you know the
00:36:59.460 thousand talents program this is one of the reasons they went so ballistic on the on what was called the
00:37:07.140 china initiative the china initiative was a and let me know when she's ready to go uh just just put
00:37:12.260 her back up the china initiative was not a super uh how do i say this not just broad base but it wasn't
00:37:21.380 going to go at the top levels and we keep arguing there's top level people here that are compromised
00:37:25.520 by the chinese communist party uh so the justice department the fbi chris ray don't need to go out and
00:37:31.220 make big speeches at uh at reagan library a bill barr doesn't need to go make uh on fox and talk about
00:37:37.540 they just got to start looking at the laptop from hell which they had in there when he made that
00:37:41.880 speech in january was a 20 he already had the laptop from hell that they had verified was legitimate
00:37:48.900 the whistleblower told us in november 19 however they did have this program and natalie's absolutely
00:37:54.700 correct they went absolutely ballistic one of the reasons i think they went ballistic they were afraid
00:37:58.760 other nations may may pick up on it and then they were going to have a problem so natalie go ahead
00:38:03.740 pick up one thing i want to do is just explain to the audience what the thousand talents program is
00:38:08.020 and why it's so important in their kind of overall um unrestricted warfare against the west
00:38:14.500 sure well when it comes to china's like broader geopolitical goals in terms of reorienting global
00:38:22.160 hegemony so they're on top in the united states is no longer it's not even that they want a bipolar
00:38:27.600 world i would argue they want a unipolar world where they are the sole power uh one of the avenues
00:38:33.740 whereby they've identified as being the primary way to advance that is of course science technology
00:38:39.160 engineering and math stem um particularly advanced scientific research um and the thousand talents
00:38:46.100 plan is sort of how they try to draw particularly western scientists obviously from the united states
00:38:52.960 overseas um to actually conduct their research in china to of course the then advancement of the
00:39:00.720 chinese scientific sector um as opposed to the united states and why that bumped up against the china
00:39:07.840 initiative was because a lot of these professors were failing to disclose the fact that they will that
00:39:14.580 they were simultaneously receiving funds from the chinese communist party while also receiving funds
00:39:21.880 from u.s taxpayers and again to go even more kind of meta because you know receiving funds from
00:39:29.400 two countries simultaneously wouldn't necessarily uh be a sin at face value or or a crime but it's because
00:39:36.920 when the chinese communist party has these scientists in their orbit it's not for altruistic scientific research
00:39:44.520 right it's not to actually advance the cause of science it's specifically to use scientific advancement
00:39:52.120 to the detriment of the west propping up the chinese communist party and of course all of this looming over the fact
00:40:00.040 that there really is no for lack of a better term chinese wall between military and civilian
00:40:06.040 uh science right they have military civil fusion over there so even though you might be working on you know gain of function research
00:40:13.400 just totally hypothetically uh to understand where bat coronaviruses come from genetically you know two years
00:40:20.920 later oh no all of a sudden the pla is working on a vaccine that's curiously timed with the release of
00:40:27.240 covet 19 uh into the world so that's sort of where it gets it gets very messy and you're exactly right when
00:40:35.240 it comes to i i remember back in the trump administration when ray and barr were doing all these speeches
00:40:40.920 about chinese communist party infiltration but as they always did you know they were missing the forest
00:40:46.600 for the trees they were focusing primarily on the foreign agent registration acts and how there were so
00:40:51.880 many registered foreign lobbyists here in the united states on behalf of the chinese communist party as
00:40:57.800 it stands they're around 270 um but you know hunter biden wasn't a registered foreign agent people like
00:41:04.200 peter hotez people like peter dashak people like ralph barrack aren't registered foreign agents when they
00:41:09.960 should be and i've always maintained this the chinese communist party you know when you go ccp you don't 0.97
00:41:15.800 go back they're like a radioactive element there is no way that you can be involved with the chinese 1.00
00:41:21.000 communist party take money from them take research grants from them and not be compromised and the way
00:41:27.000 that you see that is that it was the researchers like peter dashak like ralph barrack like peter hotez
00:41:32.680 who took millions of dollars in these joint scientific research programs between the united
00:41:37.640 states and china oftentimes it was du jour branches of the chinese military funding these initiatives
00:41:44.680 right ardently chinese communist party outfits funding them and these were the loudest voices propping
00:41:50.200 up chinese communist party propaganda on the origins of covet and stone and not just that but stonewalling
00:41:56.760 investigations into the true origins so i know the united states doesn't necessarily like uh to conduct
00:42:03.400 foreign policy with a strong emphasis on you know roi or return on investment that's why we're hemorrhaging
00:42:09.160 billions of dollars to ukraine but that's not the guiding principle that the chinese communist party
00:42:14.360 follows they get a very high roi on the foreign voices and foreign individuals and foreign groups that they
00:42:20.520 choose to invest in and right now with with covet and specifically the ongoing debate about the origins
00:42:26.360 you see that roi on full display because people who are american i would argue american in name only
00:42:32.440 right the people who are also simultaneously on the mainstream media networks that are also
00:42:37.080 up to their chins and chinese communist party cash and foreign influence operations but these are the
00:42:42.840 voices that the chinese communist party had been investing in and curating for decades so even if they
00:42:49.320 did release a bioweapon that is coven 19 which obviously the show we believe they did um they would
00:42:55.480 have you know immunity against it because they're rather insurance because they had a whole entire line
00:43:01.240 of defense of american scientists uh who would be defending them so it it really is calculated i think
00:43:08.200 you know it's easy to get caught up on these one individuals um but it's it's a broader network it's a
00:43:13.880 broader campaign that the chinese congress yeah this this this is what i wanted to have you follow uh
00:43:21.000 castella because he talked about the pressure that came against the the china initiative in
00:43:26.840 talking about moritz funding the aclu and when they shut it down they said well hey we got pressure from
00:43:31.880 two groups we got pressure from the civil rights group saying this is racist which is nonsense lao
00:43:36.040 by jing will tell you this the the ccp is the is the worst destroyer of the spirit and soul of the chinese 1.00
00:43:42.360 people but he also said they got tremendous pushback by the universities and particularly the research
00:43:47.960 universities i know something that's bugged you from the beginning is the association of of johnson
00:43:53.640 not just hodas and and fauci and these guys but also they're all associated with some of the most
00:43:59.560 prominent uh research universities bear the whole crowd so walk me through that because you're seeing
00:44:06.760 this is this is the way their system works of compromise and control of the united states of america
00:44:13.320 walk us through that other aspect when he said they got tremendous blowback from the research
00:44:17.640 universities and from all these prominent uh researchers and research scientists i know on
00:44:22.520 the barrack and hotez case which you've been all over that's always bugged you from the beginning ma'am
00:44:28.680 yeah well i think it's important to look at these for lack of a better term covet experts as a symptom
00:44:34.840 of a much bigger problem which is that these universities are just awash with chinese communist party 0.97
00:44:40.680 cash but obviously people know that but where i think that the real issue is is the fact that the
00:44:46.520 legislation is such that they don't have to actually disclose who is actually funding them if it comes from
00:44:53.080 foreign sources and while the trump administration tried to sort of work around that there's really
00:44:58.920 been no meaningful legislative changes to that so these universities can literally take any amount of money
00:45:05.960 from the chinese communist party they don't even have to put it in a shell company or pretend
00:45:10.280 that it's coming from some non-profit and they don't have to list it they don't have to report
00:45:15.160 it that's what we saw going on for example with the with penn and the biden center because they
00:45:20.520 weren't listing who exactly was giving them money yeah they had to show what money they were bringing
00:45:24.840 in but you don't have to itemize it and you don't even have to necessarily show which school
00:45:29.800 or which kind of subunit of a school it gets filtered to and that's why it's so concerning because
00:45:36.200 so many of the upper echelon people within the biden regime they all come from yale from harvard
00:45:43.080 university of chicago stanford and it's not just the ideological compromise that goes on there
00:45:48.520 this is like brian was saying people get put up there as fellows they get put up there to give
00:45:53.080 speeches and it's basically just i mean it's money laundering that's what it is it's a sort of a
00:45:58.440 barely legal way for the chinese communist party uh to pay people to give you know an hour-long
00:46:04.360 speech they get paid an inordinate amount of money and to make the sort of even the further point
00:46:10.360 which is the revolving door is that so many of the people who then kind of i would argue fall backwards
00:46:17.000 into government and specifically into the biden regime they're coming from all these elite
00:46:21.800 institutions take pamela carlin for example the number one school that was lobbying the doj to drop 0.59
00:46:28.760 the china initiative was stanford they wrote even though they have the hoover institution they wrote a
00:46:34.120 whole letter slamming it as racist saying that you need to drop it this is you know a horrible
00:46:39.000 tragedy of justice and pamela carlin used to be one of the top professors uh in leadership at 1.00
00:46:45.080 stanford university before becoming basically top dog at doj leading those efforts to stop uh audits
00:46:52.280 into into the elections in arizona um so this is how they do it it really is brilliant um in terms of the
00:47:00.440 chinese communist party they know money talks and these universities are strapped for cash and of
00:47:05.400 course they still want to be able to accept and take foreign students but that's why it's so 1.00
00:47:10.360 concerning because it goes all the way to the top universities and all of the people that i've listed
00:47:14.840 with the exception of peter dashak they've all been affiliated with universities i mean i think the
00:47:20.520 probably the best example too um is take the galveston national laboratory which is affiliated with
00:47:26.840 university of texas um this is a biosafety level four lab they were running a i mean decade-long
00:47:33.560 joint partnership with the wuhan institute of virology where they were training them to work
00:47:38.520 with the world's quote most deadly pathogens and if we obtained through foyer requests the the
00:47:45.480 intricacies the details about this arrangement and the wuhan institute of virology could tell the galveston
00:47:52.360 national laboratory that they would have to erase documents delete documents delete pathogens not
00:47:57.400 have any meaningful transparency into what wuhan was doing and they would have to be okay with it and
00:48:02.440 they signed off on it and the only logical reason as to why people would be okay with what the chinese 0.97
00:48:08.200 communist party is doing from a contractual perspective but even just broader from a geopolitical
00:48:13.400 perspective is if they're just paying you so much money um that you can't say no and that's that's
00:48:19.080 what they've been doing last thing for i'll let you go we only got a couple of minutes but you also
00:48:25.000 did about blinken talk to me about that uh consulting firm they had i mean we talk about it the praetorian
00:48:29.880 guard around him it's at the research university it's every step of the way and of course not just
00:48:36.120 the hunter biden is being compromised but you got blinken and sullivan every one of these guys
00:48:40.760 has got their hands somewhere in a different cookie jar that's got ccp cash in it am i incorrect on
00:48:46.280 that ma'am see this is why i both love and hate doing battleground because i get to be on here for
00:48:51.320 longer but also makes me more upset because we can follow these stories to their logical conclusion
00:48:57.160 and anthony anthony lincoln is a perfect example of that because his consulting firm west exec advisors
00:49:03.480 which was basically located at the white house not right next door one of their main consultancy
00:49:10.280 practices was advising american institutions colleges and universities on how to receive foreign
00:49:18.040 funds um if you look at their website which of course has now been deleted the top country that
00:49:23.080 they talked about was china this was quite literally what they were making money off of doing um and
00:49:29.320 remember blinken was involved with the penn biden center blinken had been speaking um at a bunch of
00:49:35.560 these universities that were of course funded by the chinese communist party um at these institutions
00:49:41.320 and these symposiums where they were advocating for you know closer ties between china and the united
00:49:46.120 states that's the euphemistic slogan that they always love we talked about kirk campbell joe biden's
00:49:51.000 asia czar being involved with cefc china energy that was the firm that hunter biden was working for
00:49:57.000 i think my point is the overall takeaway is that the people like hunter biden peter hotez it's important to
00:50:02.600 know their names because we need to make them famous and infamous because the left is very good
00:50:06.760 at doing that we're not good at doing that but you need to remember that these aren't just isolated
00:50:11.240 individuals don't miss the forest for the trees there are a ton of hunter biden maybe not on the
00:50:16.360 degeneracy front but in terms of the compromise front there are a ton of people like him there are
00:50:20.840 a ton of people like blinken there are a ton of people like hotez and if you want to find them 1.00
00:50:24.440 just look at the top levels of the united states government because the chinese communist party
00:50:28.680 has intentionally put them there like i said they have given the americans a master class
00:50:34.040 and what foreign diplomacy with a high roi is uh just look at the biden regime
00:50:41.240 natalie you're a national uh treasurer you really are you're encyclopedic knowledge and this is because
