Transcript

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
00:00:17.520 people off if you continue to look the other way and shut up then the oppressors the authoritarians
00:00:25.280 get total control and total power because this is just like in arizona this is just like in georgia
00:00:31.040 it's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and misrepresentations
00:00:36.080 that's why this audience is going to have to get engaged as we've told you this is the fight
00:00:40.400 all this nonsense all this spin they can't handle the truth war room battleground here's your host
00:00:47.120 stephen k bannon welcome to the war room it's friday october 20th in the year of our lord
00:00:53.920 2023 it's natalie winters hosting for the fourth hour of war room programming today i guess steve
00:01:01.120 is busy uh with cpac stuff he's out in las vegas i am as you probably discern not in studio i'm uh
00:01:08.160 in los angeles actually believe it or not somehow managing to survive out here um but as you guys
00:01:14.000 know i think where everyone's looking right now is of course the imperial capital that is the city of
00:01:18.800 washington dc everything going on with the speaker race but don't be distracted there's so much more
00:01:23.760 going on whether it's the investigations and to the biden crime family whether it's linking the
00:01:29.440 israel aid to ukraine uh the ukraine grift in and of itself there is a whole scope of issues that we'll
00:01:37.120 be focusing on here in the war room today and someone who i would say has basically always been
00:01:42.320 on the right side of history uh is of course a good friend of the show congressman matt rosendale
00:01:46.720 from the wonderful state of montana who i think we have joining us now um but congressman um i know
00:01:53.520 the audience has probably seen your letter by now you and seven of your colleagues as matt gates said
00:01:58.080 would take your pound of flesh um in exchange if it just meant advancing uh the speakership of jim
00:02:03.920 jordan now i know everything is fluid it seems like he is no longer at least per secret ballot uh the
00:02:11.040 elector or rather the designate for speaker of the house but if you can sort of walk us through that
00:02:15.600 letter i think we'll throw it up on the screen but also just where we stand in all this craziness
00:02:21.040 sure what we recognized but there was uh 22 uh folks that were not going to vote for jim and
00:02:27.840 unfortunately it was not based on any policy differences uh at all or an agenda question there
00:02:35.360 was really a lot of people that were just very very upset and angry about the fact that we had
00:02:41.840 removed kevin mccarthy and rather than have that vented on jim jordan and keep him from becoming the
00:02:48.480 speaker because we know that he would do such an incredible job we said look this is in the best
00:02:55.280 interest of the conference it's in the best interest of the country if you would need to take some kind of
00:03:00.560 retribution out on us censure us suspend us from the conference whatever then we will we will take
00:03:06.960 that so long as we can continue to move forward the election of of jim jordan into the speaker's
00:03:13.920 position we would be more than glad to take that retribution um unfortunately these folks didn't take
00:03:21.280 us up on it uh we look we still believe that what we did was 100 right it was in the best interest of
00:03:29.040 the country we cannot have a speaker of the house representing the majority representing the
00:03:34.080 republican party garnering more votes from democrats to pass mammoth size spending bills
00:03:41.440 than they get from the republicans okay and continue to leave this person in place to mound up continue to
00:03:48.640 mound up the the enormous debt on our country and so we stand by the fact that we uh made that motion to
00:03:57.520 vacate and and removed him from office but we are also recognizing that we're doing everything
00:04:03.360 in our power to make sure that we secure someone else in that seat that's going to represent the
00:04:10.080 republican party uh in a good manner you know it's really wild that there's such backlash to the
00:04:16.960 removal of speaker kevin mccarthy because i'm pretty sure the polls have showed continuously that that's probably the most popular thing this congress has done at least under the the leadership of the
00:04:25.520 speaker mccarthy but of course there's that age-old disconnect between the voters the grassroots and
00:04:32.640 you know the lobbied special interests in dc and i'm just curious if you could sort of you know to the extent
00:04:37.120 that you can you know put our audience in the room in other words you know you use the word retribution and
00:04:42.560 it sounds like some of these grievances may be personal i know there are a lot of personalities and you guys all have to work together and it doesn't always just come together seamlessly
00:04:52.320 but this retribution do you think a lot of it is coming from you know the members themselves
00:04:57.520 or do you think it has to do with these you know backroom deals the the deals that are being cut not
00:05:02.320 even member to member but more so with k street the lobbyists um sort of what the reporting we've been hearing
00:05:10.560 so this goes back to january where we were trying to restore regular order to congress natalie and what you saw
00:05:17.920 was the consolidation of power over the last 15 to 18 years into the hands of the speaker and the
00:05:24.080 rules committee 13 people sitting on the rules committee and we fought extremely hard to empower
00:05:30.000 each of the members now look i've said over the last several weeks there's a lot of comments that have been
00:05:35.440 made tempers are hot tensions are high and people will say things that eventually that they will regret that
00:05:42.720 they have said not everyone can get into this situation of of addressing the legislation that we
00:05:50.480 need to put forward and and and not take it personally i don't i keep everything focused on policy so i don't take
00:05:58.400 anything that anyone says to heart not everyone is going to be able to do that and and so what you see
00:06:06.160 sometimes or when the tensions and the and the tempers get so hot and so high that some decisions are made
00:06:12.800 and some votes are cast that not necessarily reflect the true um um desires of that person and so you you
00:06:23.040 try to work through it but sometimes it just it doesn't happen and are there outside influences absolutely
00:06:30.080 in this city we're talking about the exchange of billions of dollars that are at stake billions of
00:06:38.880 dollars if someone casts a vote for something or against something whether it's a contract that gets
00:06:44.720 awarded whether it's a policy that gets implemented that means someone has to hire x amount of people
00:06:51.600 or different types of companies to to carry out those actions or whether it's just tax code or someone is
00:06:59.440 being asked to pay a higher tax rate on something or a lower tax rate on something this is why quite
00:07:05.360 frankly i introduced the the uh stock act to prohibit members from being able to purchase individual
00:07:13.120 stocks i mean not only are they getting information that is much more sensitive than than what you would
00:07:19.040 call insider trading but they literally have the ability here in congress to affect the value of a stock
00:07:25.440 by the regulatory climate or the tax climate that they impose upon a business or industry and and so
00:07:31.840 all of these things get culminated and you see them come together in this speakers battle and and so you've
00:07:38.160 got all those outside interests that are battling to make sure their guy wins the seat and thank god that we
00:07:46.000 also have all of the voters out there that a lot of us only listen to that are saying we need to make
00:07:54.880 sure that someone is in that seat that is calling the balls and the strikes as they see them in an
00:08:01.360 impartial fashion i think the administrative state thrives when the government runs you know on autopilot and
00:08:09.600 you don't sort of see the messy inner workings of government the fights the necessary exchanges
00:08:15.120 that you have to have because otherwise the backroom deals just prevail and you know frankly i think
00:08:19.920 it shouldn't be lost on anyone the story that has to do with the special envoy envoy to iran robert
00:08:24.800 mallee you know there's foreign interests really nefarious foreign interests tied up representing
00:08:30.320 people otherwise of course not registering with farah in the style of hunter biden i think involved in
00:08:35.360 this mix too and i know you've also been ahead of the curve on that i saw you signed on to a letter
00:08:39.920 with some of your colleagues um telling senate leadership to not link uh israel aid with that
00:08:46.320 of ukraine uh if you could just sort of walk us through that letter and even more broadly your
00:08:50.880 reactions to joe biden's speech last night where he basically did just that sure so it's it's really
00:08:58.400 disappointing and that's why we did send that letter saying that that these funds should not be linked
00:09:03.120 okay and i watched the president i watched that speech last night as he struggled to try and complete
00:09:07.920 it uh the the the deterioration of the president is is scary quite frankly it's dangerous the the reason
00:09:16.720 that i i'm convinced the reason that there are russian troops in ukraine right now is because of
00:09:22.720 this president okay and now he's asking us to spend billions of dollars to to uh do something about
00:09:30.960 it but the fact of the matter is that when he first took office and was sworn in he rescinded the permit
00:09:37.920 for the keystone xl pipeline keeping us from from bringing in 850 000 barrels a day of canadian north
00:09:46.640 dakota and montana crude oil into our nation and then the next thing he did was begin to have negotiations
00:09:54.160 again with iran we've seen the amount of money that they have made because of of those sanctions
00:10:00.720 being lifted the next thing that we saw was the sanctions were lifted off of the nordstrom 2
00:10:06.480 pipeline that empowered russia to generate more money revenue by selling natural gas to europe and then
00:10:14.560 we saw the disastrous withdrawal from afghanistan where president biden showed just how weak he was
00:10:22.560 and and so when you see all of those things take place putin says why wouldn't i go into ukraine
00:10:29.760 and start trying to expand our reach but but that is still not the united states war border war to be
00:10:38.320 fighting because that's what is going on there and we have already sent 100 over 100 billion dollars
00:10:44.480 worth of aid the only thing that we can actually track somewhat is the 30 billion roughly uh dollars of
00:10:52.560 aid that has gone in the form of weapons we can't even track all of that accurately and and and then to
00:10:59.120 try and bring 100 plus billion dollar uh supplemental bill forward right now and and shamefully tie it to
00:11:08.720 israel uh and and put them on the same page as as ukraine israel suffered a terrorist attack and and genocide
00:11:18.080 from hamas let's get that straight and to tie the aid that they should be getting to ukraine which four
00:11:26.080 years ago had only been described as a corrupt country that was laundering dirty money for dirty
00:11:33.040 politicians and and 60 billion of the 100 billion he wants to direct there this is absolutely unacceptable
00:11:41.680 and then as the kicker natalie he says we want to send 14 billion dollars to uh increase our border
00:11:49.280 security and that's to do nothing but build additional facilities for illegal immigrants to
00:11:54.880 move into and provide them a social state uh a network to to prop them up which is going to incentivize
00:12:02.240 more illegal immigrants coming into our country the whole concept is distorted before we get into the
00:12:09.680 path forward i'm just curious you bring up the border we're not shy here in the war room we think that
00:12:14.000 is the foremost issue that people should be focusing on and it's not lost on anyone that when kevin
00:12:18.800 mccarthy when they're trying to bring him back from the grave and he was tweeting out those you know cringe
00:12:23.600 graphics giving his uh plan forward and they had the five-step plan and plank number four not number one
00:12:29.280 or even number two or number three was to secure the u.s border i think that was sort of saying the quiet
00:12:34.240 part out loud but before we get into the path forward i'm just curious again to the extent that you can not
00:12:40.000 exposing any of of your colleagues but you know at these dinners whether it's at you know capitol
00:12:44.800 grill capitol hill club when these people are talking with the lobbyists is there any so i don't
00:12:50.480 know what discussions are going on there that's how you know you're on the right side of history um but
00:12:56.400 you know in in your maybe maybe your best guess and like i said i think i know the answer to this but
00:13:01.520 you know is there anyone in those conversations who is representing the interests of the american people
00:13:07.280 when it comes to the issue of immigration securing the southern border it sort of seems like there's
00:13:12.240 just a void and it's just these multinational corporations and their lobbyists who just want
00:13:16.000 to not only flood this country with endless foreign labor but just expand you know their marketability
00:13:20.880 and market access i i look i don't honestly don't get invited to those dinners go figure but i can tell
00:13:29.520 you when you're standing down on the house floor uh there's a lot of conversations about making
00:13:35.280 securing our southern border a priority and it has gotten stronger it's gotten louder i'll be honest
00:13:40.560 natalie uh the posse is who we can count on i cannot believe that there is not an incredible cry from
00:13:48.160 across our nation uh from everyone when they see the human trafficking the sex trafficking that we hear
00:13:55.840 that we're losing 100 000 lives a year here in our country due to drug overdoses the vast majority of that
00:14:03.920 which is coming from fentanyl which is coming across our southern border the components are coming
00:14:09.040 from china we know it's a chemical attack from china that's initiating this and and we know that
00:14:16.160 for a fraction of what we're talking about sending to ukraine we could secure our southern border we can
00:14:21.920 finish up the wall we can finish up the security system that goes along with it and we can implement
00:14:27.520 the policies that are necessary to keep folks from streaming across our border just to uh defend the
00:14:35.840 asylum status that if people cross several borders they're not coming to the united states to claim
00:14:41.520 asylum they've already come across several borders the the remain in mexico policy if we just implement
00:14:47.440 the policies that president trump had put into place and were so effective leading up to 19 and 20 we would
00:14:54.640 be in really good shape got to bring back the remain in mexico policy especially amidst this probably
00:15:02.080 pressure campaign to bring in a host of gaussian and palestinian refugees maybe we need a remain in
00:15:08.880 in gaza policy um but representative before i let you go um the path forward um in terms of the speakership
00:15:16.800 race i know things are always fluid um but more importantly the war room posse you know who do they need
00:15:22.640 to call is there anything or you know certain action item that they should be doing saying calling
00:15:27.360 focusing on so everybody needs to listen this weekend this is going to be critically important
00:15:34.080 jim jordan has withdrawn unfortunately he's withdrawn so jim is not going to continue to pursue the uh speaker's
00:15:41.680 uh seat uh we're going to have names that we were told after the uh after the conference meeting that
00:15:48.240 they were going to adjourn and then we were going to return at 6 30 on monday they would announce uh
00:15:54.240 the uh speaker candidates everyone has to have their name turned in by sunday at noon that's eastern
00:16:01.200 sunday at noon so we should know by sunday evening who those candidates are and at that time we're going
00:16:08.080 to need the posse to be ready to uh mobilize and to start uh getting on the phone lines to make sure
00:16:15.920 that we support the most conservative strong member of congress to be the next speaker
00:16:24.240 any front runners emerging uh as of now or no i look i i left that uh meeting and i've come in
00:16:31.760 here to do the interview with you guys and and i have not heard any names yet whatsoever so i've got
00:16:37.920 to get back outside of the office and hear whose names are starting to be floated but they look the posse
00:16:44.720 knows the war room folks know who the the folks are that they can count upon they know who's willing
00:16:51.600 to stand up and be counted to fight for our nation to reduce the amount of spending that's going on to
00:16:57.520 make sure that we start implementing policies that do put america first and so uh once we get that list
00:17:04.080 we're going to be sharing it with you and and uh your your listeners so that we can make sure we get
00:17:09.600 that support rounded up quickly congressman thank you so much for joining us now i have to say i
00:17:15.200 think there's probably a direct correlation between coming on war room and uh not getting invited to
00:17:20.160 those swampy dinners but i hope that's a trade-off that you're willing to make if people want to
00:17:24.960 support you follow you stay up to date with everything you're working on where can they go
00:17:29.600 on the official side you go to at rep rosendale all my platforms i keep it simple
00:17:35.200 at rep rosendale uh the unofficial side you can go to matt for montana dot com matt f-o-r montana dot com
00:17:46.400 thank you so much congressman have a nice weekend thanks for having me on natalie always good to be
00:17:51.040 with you of course i think we got mark pauletta joining us now too to sort of at least uh conclude
00:17:58.800 this show's discussion of everything going on in the house the speaker race we got some great new guests
00:18:04.160 to the show coming after us to talk about some really bombshell investigator reporting but
00:18:08.560 mark i know you worked in the trump administration now you're of course people can see from the back
00:18:12.400 room behind you the center for renewing america you guys have really been leading the charge on this
00:18:15.760 whole speaker race since january um so i'm just curious your thoughts not just everything that
00:18:21.680 congressman rosendale said but sort of where we stand jim jordan who potential front runners could be
00:18:27.200 what happened everything have at it disappointing day uh a messy day uh not surprising i think jim jordan
00:18:36.720 would have been a great speaker um and i think the swamps struck back uh but we can't let them win
00:18:43.200 that's the most important thing um you know and i would urge jim jordan to reconsider i just heard uh
00:18:49.120 congressman rosendale so say that uh jordan is withdrawn but i hope he reconsiders and thinks about
00:18:55.680 uh running again because there was no policy reason right there's no substantive reason for any member
00:19:03.600 to oppose jim jordan uh and so um he is by far the most popular um member of congress uh republican
00:19:12.720 conservative in the country um and so i'm hoping he reconsiders but we we need to make sure right that
00:19:20.880 there is no coalition um uh government uh that was floated that was an absurd idea but could make its
00:19:28.880 return um i also think that this needs to be done out in the open uh and have people vote and be
00:19:36.880 accounted for in terms of these votes so they should just stay on the floor and vote until they have a
00:19:41.600 speaker uh and it needs to be someone again as congressman rosendale said said you know that it's going
00:19:47.040 to fight for the american people that's not owned by the swamp uh that's going to reign in spending
00:19:52.160 secure our border that's the most important thing natalie as you said i worked i was the general
00:19:57.360 counsel of omb uh during the trump administration with russ vote as the director uh and we found that
00:20:04.480 money and helped uh you know uh devote that money to the wall and building the wall and when joe joe biden
00:20:10.560 came in he obviously just completely stopped it and i'm my i believe that he um um impounded those
00:20:18.320 funds um but uh and more importantly he just allowed our border to be overrun um and wide open but we
00:20:26.480 need to get back to work the house needs to open back up for to do its work to prevent biden and the
00:20:31.440 democrats from running this town um and uh as he's as congressman rosendale said there'll be a
00:20:38.080 candidate forum i guess on monday we'll hear who those those people are that are running uh as i
00:20:43.840 said i think uh i'd wish uh jordan would reconsider but uh we need a conservative that's not part of the
00:20:49.920 swamp to run the house this may seem like a you know naive rhetorical question but i think the
00:20:57.200 audience it's probably on their minds just like it's always on mine why did these damn congressmen take
00:21:02.320 so many long weekends take so many breaks so many periods it just doesn't make sense um which i would
00:21:09.440 argue nefariously it's when the lobbyists get in there and work their magic but from someone who's
00:21:14.640 sort of been behind the scenes you know why do you think they're doing why is there not this appetite
00:21:21.200 to just continue to hold the votes you know even why did jim jordan call the secret ballot on himself
00:21:27.520 yeah you know i think i think jim jordan is a good man i think he he he wanted to get the
00:21:33.760 conferences view and that may have been his undoing but i think he thought i want the conference to buy
00:21:40.800 into this and and i think the best you know the larger issue natalie of going home and not staying
00:21:46.960 in washington i think congress should stay in in in uh i spent 10 years in congress as a chief
00:21:52.080 oversight council um back in the uh early mid 90s so the early 2000s and uh i think congress should
00:21:59.600 stay in more and get the work done uh and they should have stayed in you know through the weekend
00:22:05.120 to get this done because you know like anything the more you take breaks uh the more secret deals are
00:22:11.200 cut or people you know the the special interests try and affect things i think this needs to be as again
00:22:17.760 jim jordan was the most popular republican member of congress in the nation and you saw the grassroots
00:22:25.280 get activated for for jim jordan you saw them calling members you saw members of congress being annoyed
00:22:31.120 that they were getting calls from people which is pretty astonishing right and so i think you just
00:22:37.120 they need to come back and they don't you know when they start voting they need to not stop voting until
00:22:41.440 they have a speaker and as as you said we'll find out who these names are when they file their
00:22:46.240 their candidacies on sunday by noon and then of those of those you know people who have filed let's
00:22:52.800 figure out who the the best person is who's going to represent the american people's interests
00:22:58.240 just curious you said i didn't know that you had worked with house oversight um for nearly a decade
00:23:04.880 um your thoughts on sort of the ongoing debate about the efficacy of these investigations where do you
00:23:10.480 think they're ultimately headed do you think we need to shake up the leadership i'm just curious your
00:23:15.600 analysis yeah i was on the energy and commerce committee as the chief oversight council um i think
00:23:21.600 they just need to press and keep i think they are they take time um but i think in terms of you know
00:23:27.920 issuing subpoenas and seeking contempt uh and and bringing people in for um you know depositions but
00:23:36.720 also hearings so that the american people can see uh you know the answers to these questions and help
00:23:43.280 you know drive uh getting to the truth so um i think the the biden folks have been stonewalling
00:23:50.960 and people around them uh and they need you know they need to continue to keep pushing and jim jordan's
00:23:57.440 a fighter i mean i i've been watching his investigation and he's going to go back um if he doesn't uh
00:24:03.040 reconsider and uh get on uh looking into the by administration but um i think that needs to be a
00:24:09.360 one number one priority or continue to be uh they take time unfortunately um in terms of you know
00:24:16.480 issuing subpoenas and and laying the groundwork so that if you're going to hold somebody in contempt
00:24:21.120 um you know you you can you can you can win on it uh but a lot of it is public exposure and bringing
00:24:27.520 these people out making them account for themselves publicly uh before congress before the american people
00:24:32.880 i saw a lot of people who said one thing uh you know behind closed doors and then you know in a
00:24:38.880 hearing um they either took the fifth or they um uh you know they changed their their testimony or
00:24:45.920 their their tune when they were before the bright lights of congress mark thank you so much for
00:24:51.280 joining us if people want to stay up to date with everything you're working on where can they go to

00:25:13.680 thanks natalie now war room posse in the meantime before we go to break if you want to check out we
00:25:18.880 have a new story breaking on war room.org exclusive google backed biden linked tech firm behind central
00:25:26.080 bank digital currencies fund a new program that fines and penalizes users for sharing misinformation
00:25:32.880 the company ripple labs which has not only seen a former advisor join the fed under joe biden he was
00:25:38.640 nominated he's going to help advise policies on a crypto regulation but they're now funding research
00:25:45.120 um into implementing blockchain technology on social media platforms that could lead to you
00:25:50.720 potentially being fined if you share stories that are deemed fake news or misinformation they don't
00:25:57.520 exactly get into what constitutes either of those monikers but i can tell you it's probably at odds with
00:26:03.920 the theory of the case on most issues that we hold here at the war room this company has also enjoyed
00:26:09.680 funding believe it or not uh from google and a host of chinese communist party linked uh venture capital
00:26:15.680 firms which we'll actually be getting into after the break um but believe it or not they've also met
00:26:20.720 with representatives from dozens of countries to help implement the cbdc which you guys may have heard
00:26:26.000 about the central bank digital currency which we have a lot of fears that they'll be using that to usher
00:26:30.000 in a sort of social credit score like system uh here in the west so i would say this story may just
00:26:37.440 confirm the worst so head over to war room.org to check that story out we got two great reporters

00:31:46.080 war room battleground with stephen k bannon raja and i both agree that american firms should not be
00:31:54.880 capitalizing chinese military companies chinese surveillance companies and the chinese communist
00:32:00.000 parties human rights abuses sequoia has a history of investing in companies that do that like eversec
00:32:07.040 for paradigm dji deep glint and so we want to understand how this new split between sequoia us
00:32:14.480 and sequoia capital china or hongsham what this means whether we'll actually prevent american
00:32:19.840 capital from flowing to such chinese military companies or whether we'll actually unintentionally
00:32:24.560 or intentionally allow sequoia capital china to avoid scrutiny from the new executive order from
00:32:31.600 the biden administration welcome back to the war room again what you just watched keep in mind there's
00:32:37.920 more than just the speaker race going on up on the hill right now and like steve always says the
00:32:43.760 investigation which we've been doing here a lot in the war room into sequoia capital its ties of
00:32:47.920 course to the chinese communist party it's going to be a a bombshell that is probably going to rock
00:32:54.160 the city of washington dc notorious for scandals but for a very long time for years to come and
00:33:00.640 someone who has done really some great reporting uh not just on chinese communist party infiltration i
00:33:06.400 think we have a shared love for the china united states exchange foundation and the united front that's
00:33:13.040 what i used to do a lot of my reporting on um is a great investigative reporter for the daily caller
00:33:17.200 whose name i hope i don't butcher so i'll give it a try um but i think it's philip you know i'm just
00:33:22.640 gonna let you announce or pronounce your last name because i'm gonna butcher it um but you have an
00:33:28.000 amazing new story up that has to do with the ties between of course venture capital firms um and the
00:33:33.600 chinese communist party um particularly advancing their economy uh really at the cost of ours we know our
00:33:39.040 pension funds back a lot of these firms i'd love it i'd love if you could walk us through that story
00:33:44.000 um specifically the sequoia capital angle because that's something we're very interested here in the
00:33:47.840 war room and then we can get into on the other side you know how it plays into uh everything we're
00:33:52.400 seeing going on unfold right now on the investigation front oh well thank you so much for having me um
00:33:58.000 you're as uh you know wise as you are beautiful and not trying to pronounce my last name it's philip
00:34:04.480 len zicky i'm a reporter with the daily caller news foundation and yes indeed we do have a shared
00:34:09.760 passion for uh looking into um you know the chinese congress party and and their uh influence operations
00:34:16.400 but anyhow um we just did a story and um in order to kind of understand this i would you know ask you
00:34:23.360 and your audience to sort of think back to um you know 2009 um you know what was going on then we had
00:34:30.880 of course you know barack obama taking office um as painful as it might be to uh remember and we had
00:34:38.400 you know avatar premiering uh we had michael jackson dying and in the summer there right around the same
00:34:43.600 time we had the premiere of um the abc show shark tank now the reason i bring this up is that the chinese
00:34:51.920 communist party several years later launched a program which is suspiciously similar to sort of the core
00:35:01.520 premise of shark tank now what essentially they did in 2012 was they began to run what are called
00:35:09.600 thousand talents plan startup contests and this is a vehicle to realize the core goals of the thousand
00:35:19.840 talents plan which had been launched in 2008 and that's more or less to try and incentivize
00:35:25.520 um you know talents scientists researchers to come back to china bring that information um to china in
00:35:34.960 order for the you know the chinese government to use um however they may wish now in this story what we
00:35:43.440 found was that they began to run these contests in 2012 out of a city uh in eastern china near shanghai
00:35:50.320 called sujo um and that um a number five in fact uh venture capital firms from the united states as
00:35:57.120 well as dozens more from china and elsewhere participated in in these contests and it's really
00:36:04.000 a combination of the chinese commerce party getting uh these individuals to come back and bring their
00:36:10.160 information you've got the individuals who are incentivized to take part in these contests and
00:36:15.120 uh capitalize or commercialize their ideas and then you've got these um venture capital firms that
00:36:21.680 are that are putting forth the money and will then get first crack at investing in um chinese government
00:36:29.360 backed projects so that's this you know unholy trinity if you will that was um hatched the firms themselves
00:36:38.240 that we looked at these five um you know they all were you know noted as being you know angel investors
00:36:45.280 or participating institutions so that's at the institutional level and then each of them have
00:36:50.160 multiple executives that then also took part in these contests either as you know judges or steering
00:36:56.720 committee members so this has been going on now for a decade and is still going on until this day
00:37:03.600 there's a 2023 contest that all five of the u.s venture capital firms that we looked into um have
00:37:10.960 individuals participating in so the firms in question are um gsr and ggv capital idg capital
00:37:19.520 walden international uh as well as sequoia capital um which you mentioned at the top of the show
00:37:26.720 now we know sequoia capital and sequoia capital china it was recently spun off we would argue because of
00:37:32.560 you know the wonderful work of investigators like yourself and of course what they've been doing
00:37:36.880 over on the hill um but i'm just curious again i think it's sort of a moot point now when you hear
00:37:42.320 people try to say that sequoia capital is not in bed with the chinese communist party neil shen
00:37:46.720 their managing director is you know a chinese communist party member advisor high level advisor at that
00:37:53.120 through and through um but when you see for instance the clip that we played in the open you know
00:37:57.920 talks about investigating sequoia capital using your story i think sort of as a perfect anecdote
00:38:03.520 you know to demonstrate the ties that exist between this firm and the chinese communist party
00:38:08.560 do you think that when this committee starts to really investigate the issue that is sequoia capital
00:38:13.360 when they start to sort of turn over the stones and look underneath uh what is under the hood as
00:38:18.480 steve would probably say i'm not the best at car references but i try um you know do you think
00:38:23.200 they're going to find continued collaboration on some of the most you know deadliest and nefarious
00:38:28.720 ventures all the way up to military technology um with these venture capital firms well you know i i
00:38:36.320 don't want to you know speculate but yes absolutely and you know it's it's it's totally clear based on
00:38:43.440 what we've seen so far um at least when it comes to uh mr shen and what was going on with the the china arm
00:38:52.080 that yes there's certainly some extremely suspicious activities going on there and i can
00:38:58.640 tell you that while looking into this you know there's a ton more that you know we just haven't
00:39:05.360 reported on yet and i really hope that others you know dive into this because there's just um a lot
00:39:12.560 of ugliness and so as you mentioned you know mr shen was a representative at the you know chinese
00:39:19.200 people's political consultative conference um and this shows you know this this uh body you know
00:39:27.120 is said to oversee the united front work department which is a chinese intelligence service and um it's
00:39:32.480 for die hard you know chinese communist party supporters this isn't just some some some social
00:39:38.000 club and um what i will you know show a little skin here is that there are similar such um you know
00:39:46.640 uh affiliations if you will to the united front that we found um among the other executives involved
00:39:56.800 in um our investigation and if we were to pull out just a little bit um we were literally looking at
00:40:03.680 you know us-based firms uh but if we were just to pull out just a little bit and see even just chinese
00:40:10.240 firms with u.s offices or chinese firms that are engaging with us over here in other ways
00:40:16.400 we're talking about dozens that have a very interesting through line that goes right back
00:40:22.560 to the united front work department i can't believe for all the years that i've ever done war room and
00:40:28.160 hosted that it's taken me this long to have someone come on to talk about the united front that's where
00:40:32.800 i first got all my uh investigative reporting i would say chops had to do with qsaf and all of these
00:40:38.880 very friendly very nice sounding groups um but their motives and their methods and really
00:40:45.520 their motivations are are nothing to be described as nice now you sort of told us where you're going
00:40:51.440 to be going with your your investigations i'm just curious and i think i probably know the answer to
00:40:56.240 this but um you guys over the daily caller and especially your work you really have been leading the
00:41:01.120 charge on exposing a lot of the ccp infiltration but you know the of the committees that exist
00:41:07.040 currently in congress right now have they reached out to you guys at all to ask you know more on
00:41:11.680 these stories the information the work that you guys are doing particularly on the sequoia capital
00:41:15.840 front uh i i don't kiss and tell but yeah we're talking to folks on the hill and and i appreciate
00:41:23.760 that and you know we that's the way this business works we try to understand um what they're finding
00:41:30.400 and they try to understand uh what you know can happen with our work so that's just the name of
00:41:35.920 the game um but no there's no plan um as to how things will go forward i i certainly hope that the
00:41:44.080 select committee continues um uh in the same fashion as they've been um but you know time will tell
00:41:52.800 well that's that's truly great to hear i think that's just the uh the good news that the war room
00:41:57.040 posture is probably looking for on this friday afternoon philip and i'm not going to say your
00:42:00.800 last name again because i still don't even think i could do that um but if people want to follow you
00:42:05.120 stay up to date with everything you're working on we'll definitely have you back on when you break
00:42:08.640 those forthcoming stories but where can they go um to find everything you're doing i'd direct you to go
00:42:13.920 to um the daily caller and you could also find me at on twitter at at lensicky philip which is must be
00:42:22.160 really easy for folks but anyhow you can find me thanks so much for having me on natalie you guys
00:42:27.840 are doing great work of course thank you so much for coming on and you'll definitely have to come
00:42:32.160 back any any person who knows what the united front is and what qsef stands for is a friend of mine so
00:42:37.680 thank you so much for coming on now i think we got another clip pivoting to i would say uh another
00:42:45.760 link to the chinese communist party not directly talking about anthony fouchy and the wuhan institute of
00:42:51.360 virology but we're talking about the national institutes of health and the new director that
00:42:55.360 joe biden wants to have confirmed who's going through her senate confirmation process not as we
00:43:01.600 speak but uh probably just yesterday um if we want to roll the clip we got someone from the american
00:43:06.640 accountability foundation joining us to unpack what she is talking about trigger warning it's pretty uh
00:43:12.960 ridiculous so here's my question should taxpayers fund gender reassignment experiments
00:43:20.960 or research that are purely cosmetic we destroy healthy tissue and organs or when they use fda
00:43:27.280 approved products off-label with significant negative irreversible impacts again this off-label use
00:43:34.160 isn't treating diseases or illnesses should taxpayer funds be used to do research or fund these irreversible
00:43:42.480 horrifying irreversible procedures and the use of these hormones off-label
00:43:47.680 so senator thank you very much because it's very clear that you are uh share my concern over the
00:43:56.640 well-being of the lgbtq community especially young vulnerable people um what i can tell you is that if
00:44:05.840 confirmed uh i will commit to con uh leading nih to conduct the research that will achieve the very best
00:44:15.760 health for these vulnerable and special i'm sorry to cut you off but but right there do you believe
00:44:21.920 that that it's okay to fund this type of research where these irreversible procedures are being done
00:44:28.000 do you think there's any any any experiment that you can think would justify irreversibly damaging
00:44:35.040 these poor little boys and girls who are are 14 15 years old can will you fund that type of research
00:44:41.040 any research any research that we do senator with regard to human subjects has to be done in a way that
00:44:49.280 uh does no harm and produces the maximum benefit to the the people that are are uh participating in the
00:44:59.840 research and that will be the principle with which i approach any research especially for this vulnerable
00:45:06.720 population thank you wow pretty radical saying the quiet part out loud uh joining me now is yitz
00:45:19.280 friedman who works with the american accountability foundation who does really really fantastic work
00:45:25.920 um on all things i feel like you guys are sort of like a ringer but you're really good at you know
00:45:31.200 every issue whether it's the indoctrination of kids in schools anthony fauci it's it's a great
00:45:37.120 organization um but we just played that video talking about who the new national institutes of health
00:45:42.800 director is probably going to be if confirmed hopefully not um but i'd love if you could walk
00:45:47.840 through the radicalness that we just saw and then maybe we can get into some of her other conflicts of
00:45:52.160 interest particularly with pfizer and big pharma absolutely first of all thank you for your very kind
00:45:58.240 words it's uh you know we really appreciate that especially coming from you that's a high praise
00:46:02.320 um yeah so her name is monica bertagnoli she's the uh she's the nominee to be the next uh you know the
00:46:07.760 head of director of the national institute of health um she was lobbied for personally by dr fauci himself
00:46:15.600 which um should should already kind of raise some red flags um what we just saw is you know she's being
00:46:22.160 asked by you know by senators who are concerned like what will you be participating in all the gender
00:46:28.560 kind of madness we're seeing in the world today and she refuses to say no this you know the senator is
00:46:34.640 asking her are you going to be funding are you guys at the nih going to be funding uh irreversible you
00:46:40.080 know he says irreversible a few times irreversible experimental gender stuff and she can't say the
00:46:47.040 easiest word in the dictionary to say no i'm not going to do that because that's crazy everybody knows
00:46:52.160 that's crazy um and you know she she's this isn't like a you know a new thing with her she actually
00:46:57.600 worked at this uh a cancer institute called dana farber where they were actually posting about how
00:47:03.440 they're very concerned about uh men with cervixes um you know i told it to my wife and she just burst out
00:47:10.320 laughing um but this is a serious thing unfortunately um they also talk about um women with prostate issues
00:47:18.160 um just it's it's just incredible i mean you know we people used to think that you know
00:47:22.800 in the future we'd be living in one of these like uh dystopian sci-fi movies it feels like instead
00:47:27.920 we're living in like a abban and costello three stooges movie instead because this is just nuts you
00:47:32.400 know uh you know we need a prostate exam for mrs johnson like this is the level of stuff that we're
00:47:36.800 dealing with here and this is who biden wants to run the national institute of health
00:47:39.680 and she also has some interesting ties i think i had had your executive director or someone else
00:47:46.160 affiliated with your foundation on to discuss some of her ties to big pharma but she is uh i was going
00:47:51.840 to say a bad ombre that's what trump would probably say but i guess she's not not an ombre although
00:47:55.760 maybe although you know what given what she just said maybe that's a perfectly apt way
00:48:00.720 of describing her um but if you could just walk the audience a little bit through some of those
00:48:05.120 concerning ties and just in general more to the idea of who exactly this lady is
00:48:11.360 well this is where it gets interesting because she also said during the hearing about her you know
00:48:15.280 she tried to kind of downplay her ties to big pharma um by kind of fudging the facts a little bit uh
00:48:21.360 when we actually look at you know what how these things actually work it looks like big pharma basically
00:48:26.560 bankrolled her entire career but not directly so she has that deniability but it's very clear that all
00:48:33.840 of her research was funded by big pharma she's worked for you know on the served on the boards of
00:48:37.680 different pharma companies um it's and it's very concerning i mean we just saw during you know coven
00:48:43.200 all that going on how there's you know the potential for serious corruption in our health agencies
00:48:48.240 um and you know this is another just huge red flag again this is person who was endorsed by
00:48:54.000 anthony fauci so that's you know red flag number one uh she doesn't know what kind of a person has
00:48:59.360 a prostate versus what kind of a person has a cervix big red flag number two and her entire
00:49:04.400 career was bankrolled by pharma um i think three strikes and you're out i think the uh the endorsement
00:49:11.120 by anthony fauci is what we call a a non-starter frankly it's the uh the kiss of death maybe a masked
00:49:17.360 kiss of death but uh before i let you know i know you guys have also done some great work exposing
00:49:23.280 um who runs i forgot the the exact name of the organization but again a very radical specifically
00:49:29.200 on the gender front um is it the american public library american librarian association
00:49:34.720 um but you guys are really instrumental in exposing her and i think you guys had an interesting follow
00:49:39.280 up uh you guys followed her because barbara bush gave her an award because of course she did um but
00:49:44.560 just to sort of wrap up on that story what happened there oh well sure we've been we've been tracking
00:49:50.400 the american library association for some time now and their president um a person named emily
00:49:56.000 um drabinsky who describes herself as a marxist lesbian um and this is the american library
00:50:02.880 association this this is a kind of a non-profit that has a lot of influence into at libraries
00:50:10.160 across america this is their their very old institution they're very very influential um and
00:50:15.840 then yeah like just a couple weeks ago the barbara bush foundation for children's literacy um gave this
00:50:21.280 organization an award um and we thought you know we owe it to the public to make sure everyone
00:50:28.000 knows what this group is really about um so we kind of crashed their party there you know we crashed
00:50:32.640 this uh fancy dc cocktail party we put up a nice big truck outside with billboards you know saying
00:50:38.000 the truth about it i don't know if i could say it on tv but you know the billboard said the american
00:50:42.240 library association wants your kids to read about anal sex um we put out you know gave out flyers
00:50:48.000 showing pictures from the books the american library association is trying to put in front of our
00:50:52.960 kids um and i think that really says it all you know you don't really have to make an argument you
00:50:57.120 just show people what they're you know show people the images of these extremely sexually graphic books
00:51:01.760 that they want you know in libraries across america um and i think people can make up their minds from there
00:51:07.760 that is so awesome that you guys did that i love that our side needs more people like you and so
00:51:13.760 frankly to the children of this country yes thank you so much for joining us if people want to follow

00:51:31.760 exposing biden um we've been run into a little bit of trouble from posting some of the images that uh of
00:51:38.560 these books that they're showing to kids apparently these books are too graphic for twitter or x

00:52:45.600 not made in china that's not relying on the chinese communist party which i would say is always a good
00:52:51.360 thing all this talk about the united front and chinese communist party infiltration makes me
00:52:55.440 nostalgic for the good old days a few years ago where that seemed to be the biggest news story we
00:53:00.400 were focusing on we weren't talking about world war iii nuclear war but i guess that was probably also
