Rebel News Podcast - New war on your civil liberties — all in the name of the pandemic

00:00:00.000 Hello, my Rebels. Today, I talk to you about the risk of getting the virus outdoors. To quote

00:00:05.700 one public health officer, it's infinitesimally small. I'll prove the stats to you and I'll ask,

00:00:13.260 so why are we cracking down on people going to the beach? Well, it's pretty obvious it's

00:00:18.700 about power. I'll make my case. That's up next. Hey, can I invite you to become a Rebel News Plus

00:00:24.540 subscriber? I want you to see the video of this one public health officer that I quote,

00:00:28.840 I was convinced by it. And I don't generally trust public health officers because they're just

00:00:32.960 politicians with an MD after their name. But if you get the Rebel News Plus subscription,

00:00:37.940 you get the video version of this podcast. Plus, David Menzies has a weekly show and Sheila Gunn-Reed

00:00:43.520 too. And it's only eight bucks a month or 80 bucks if you buy for the whole year. And that's enough

00:00:48.780 to help keep our lights on here because, you know, we don't take a dime from Justin Trudeau. Tell me

00:00:54.460 another media company that can tell you that, eh? All right, here's the show.

00:01:06.460 Tonight, here comes a new war on your civil liberties, all in the name of the pandemic.

00:01:18.960 It's July 6th, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.

00:01:23.960 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:01:27.480 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.

00:01:31.560 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I'm publishing it is because it's

00:01:35.960 my bloody right to do so.

00:01:37.420 How was your weekend? The weather in most places in Canada was great. Finally, summer

00:01:47.640 is here. Get out of the house, feel normal again after being really under house arrest

00:01:51.680 for four months. What a laugh. They said it was just two weeks to flatten the curve. Now

00:01:57.180 they're saying they might not even open up the schools in September. That's more than two

00:02:02.100 months away from now, but the teachers' unions know they'll be paid no matter what, so why not

00:02:06.560 keep the party going? They're having a blast. I see that a lot of families have tried homeschooling.

00:02:13.640 They were sort of forced to, and some of them are desperate for schools to start up again,

00:02:18.480 but some families are realizing this is the best thing that ever happened to them.

00:02:24.060 I saw this news story over the weekend from North Carolina. The system, this is the page,

00:02:30.800 it's a homeschooling page. The system is not currently available due to an overwhelming submission

00:02:36.300 of notices of intent. It will be back online as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience

00:02:42.900 as we work to process NOIs as quickly as possible. So those are families who are serving a notice on

00:02:49.420 the state that, thanks very little, we'll take it from here. They crashed the system.

00:02:54.380 So yeah, but still what a mishmash. Some things are open, some are closed. Some are open depending

00:03:00.720 on your politics. I haven't seen a single politician condemn a Black Lives Matter protest for spreading

00:03:07.040 the pandemic of you, and yet if Trump supporters rally, why that's a national public health hazard.

00:03:13.940 I see that Harvard University has decided in advance that it doesn't really feel like opening

00:03:18.740 up at all next year. It just won't. It'll still charge students 50 grand a year US for online

00:03:27.200 classes. Can't you just watch those on YouTube for free? Well, of course you can, but Harvard was

00:03:33.520 never really selling its knowledge, at least not in the last generation. It was selling its name and

00:03:38.640 exclusivity. Anyone can know what a Harvard grad knows, but only the select few can also pay 200 grand

00:03:46.260 US for a four-year degree in women's studies. That's what it is for sale, snobbery and class, 1.00

00:03:52.480 and there's always a demand for that. Hey, did you see this? This is from Ontario, but it could really

00:03:58.460 be from anywhere in Canada or the United States or the UK, some of the worst. Like I said, it was a 1.00

00:04:03.160 glorious July weekend. Most parts of the country, if you're fancy, you can go to your private cottage or

00:04:08.480 cabin or lake house. But if you're not fancy, you don't have a private cottage or cabin or lake house.

00:04:13.660 You can't afford one, but the beach is just as much fun and it's free. Yeah, no. Look at this,

00:04:22.580 Florida or Toronto? Sadly, Toronto went for a Sunday stroll at Bluffers Park. While some are

00:04:29.880 respecting social distancing, many more are not. No City of Toronto bylaw officers in sight. Yeah,

00:04:37.840 those insane Florida people, so irresponsible. I mean, CNN said so. Insane Republicans down there,

00:04:45.640 except the Florida, which has exactly 50% more people than Ontario. It doesn't have 50% more deaths

00:04:54.640 from the virus than Ontario. Ontario is deadlier. But sure, if you're an anti-American media party

00:05:01.460 reporter in Toronto who gets all their info from CNN, have at her. But it's actually safer to be in

00:05:07.660 Florida than Ontario, if that's your thing. But look again at the photo. It's a shot at a certain

00:05:12.640 angle. I think in art that's called foreshortening. I'm not sure. It looks pretty crowded, right? Except

00:05:18.800 everyone's standing, well, because everyone's standing so close to each other. But as you can see,

00:05:23.100 some people are smaller than others and some are much, much smaller than others. But in real life,

00:05:28.360 they're not smaller. The photo is taken at a certain angle to make everyone look jammed up on top of

00:05:32.880 each other. But in fact, that photo, which has a hundred people in it, shows a stretch of beach

00:05:37.840 hundreds and hundreds of years long. It's an optical illusion that everyone's jammed together

00:05:44.000 through foreshortening. But the greatest trick is this. A global news reporter goes to the beach to enjoy

00:05:51.080 himself and is mad that other people have gone to the beach to enjoy themselves.

00:05:56.660 This was a great reply to that global reporter. But look at what the global news reporter did.

00:06:03.320 He tagged in his photo, John Tory, Doug Ford, and the public health officer. He's tattling on people.

00:06:09.100 He's not reporting. He's being a scolding. He's calling the manager, manager, manager,

00:06:13.700 I'd like to report someone else at the beach. If you think that's a bit much, well, look at what some

00:06:18.640 politician said at Ontario's Forsega Beach, about 90 minutes drive from Toronto. Look at this.

00:06:23.900 We saw human behavior at its worst. Overcrowding an issue at Wassega Beach, Ontario on Canada Day.

00:06:34.080 You know, I've been to Iraq to refugee camps from the Islamic State. I've talked to survivors of the

00:06:42.320 terrorism. I met a Yazidi rape slave who had fled to Germany who told me she was raped 240 times by

00:06:51.960 terrorists before she lost count. They have slaves there. Even still, every day we learn about horrific

00:07:00.200 treatment of humans by other humans, about civil rights being destroyed, about violence and crime,

00:07:04.980 and even genocide today. But none of that compares, you see, not to CTV News, not to the barbarity of

00:07:13.080 Islamic terrorists or open air slave markets in Libya, not the Soviets or the Nazis, we saw human

00:07:20.160 behavior at its worst. Overcrowding at the beach on Canada Day. Wassega Beach, eh? Sear that name into your

00:07:30.200 memory. That's another Flanders Fields or My Lie. If you click the link, you get this story from the CTV.

00:07:36.740 I mean, just look at that horror. People, you know, sitting in the sun, not in their own business,

00:07:46.100 and funny enough, not wearing masks when it was 30 degrees out. The town of Wassega Beach is cracking

00:07:53.320 down on overcrowding at the beach. Town officials said the Canada Day crowds were the final straw.

00:08:00.800 After three weeks of physical distancing issues, are those really the worst people in the world? I mean,

00:08:05.920 the beachgoers, not the shrieking town hall politician nobody. I'll read some more. Town

00:08:10.400 council also passed a bylaw that would see fines of up to $750 for anyone caught in the closed areas

00:08:16.020 of the beach. Just let me say, if you are one of the people who gets those insane tickets,

00:08:21.280 just send them to us at fightthefines.com. Don't pay the tickets. Fight them, okay? But is it true

00:08:28.460 that going to the beach makes you the worst person in the whole history of the whole world? And by world,

00:08:33.080 I don't just mean planet Earth, but all the other planets in the solar system. Are you the worst

00:08:36.960 person in the solar system? No, that's just what some weirdo politicians and bullies are saying. 0.61

00:08:44.480 Here's what Dr. Bonnie Henry, the public health officer for British Columbia said. Now,

00:08:49.040 I'm not interested in picking and choosing my public health officer in a great big public health

00:08:54.680 officer brawl, because frankly, any one of them will say anything on any given day. But just listen to

00:08:59.960 her for a second, if you would, take a listen. There has been, there was one study that we've

00:09:04.660 been looking at that looks at 138 different clusters, and there was a single one that was

00:09:10.260 associated perhaps with people in close contact, close contact outdoors. So the transmission risk

00:09:18.520 is much less outside, as far as we can tell, in that we, as long as we keep our physical distances

00:09:25.120 from people, so being outside, as long as you're with your group, your home, your bubble, that is fine. And maintaining your distance from others. The risk that somebody who is sick is spreading this virus from coughing or sneezing outside, and you walk by them very quickly, even if it is within six feet, that risk is negligible. You know, that's not the way this virus is mostly transmitted.

00:09:55.120 The risk would be infinitesimally small. If somebody runs by you, somebody walks by you, even if they were in within six feet.

00:10:03.120 Wow, she used the word infinitesimal. I think that means tiny. Well, not to get all sciencey on you, but she's right. Here's the Globe and Mail.

00:10:14.120 To date, 312 detailed studies have been published about clusters of coronavirus infections. There is not a single case of infection by casual contact outdoors. I think I read that one to you another day. Here's an expert from the United Kingdom in their reputable Telegraph newspaper.

00:10:32.120 Casual interactions outside don't seem to be driving coronavirus transmission. Exclusive interview with one of the UK's top epidemiologists on immunity, contact tracing, and Britain's exit strategy. Adam Kacharski is an associate professor.

00:10:44.120 At the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Sounds serious.

00:10:47.120 So what does he have to say in response to this question of going to the beach? Well, he said, this is the question he got.

00:10:53.120 Modeling has suggested outdoor environments pose less risk than indoors. What are the implications for efforts to ease a lockdown?

00:11:01.120 And he answered, when we're looking at things like super spreading events, typically they occur in quite close knit settings, offices, restaurants, parties, gatherings.

00:11:11.120 Casual interactions outside don't seem to be driving transmission. What we need to untangle is whether that's a feature of the environment or whether it's due to the proximity and duration of the contact.

00:11:20.120 But in the UK, where people have been able to go outside, we've still seen a substantial decline in transmission.

00:11:26.120 And biologically, it would make sense if you were catching the virus after going vaguely near someone in a park, then we'd have a much bigger problem on our hands.

00:11:33.120 Oh, so it's not a big problem. That's good to know. Now, I don't trust anything coming out of China, of course. 1.00

00:11:40.120 But if you do, and Trudeau does and so do all the media, here's a study out of China on this very point.

00:11:46.120 New study finds few cases of outdoor transmission of coronavirus in China.

00:11:52.120 A new study of the more than 300 outbreak clusters of COVID-19 in China reveals that the majority of the outbreaks were fueled by indoor transmission of the disease, while outdoor transmission was scarce.

00:12:03.120 The filtered data presented 318 outbreaks, encompassing 1,245 confirmed cases of the virus, across 120 cities.

00:12:11.120 The location of the outbreaks were divided into six categories – homes, transport, food, entertainment, shopping and miscellaneous.

00:12:18.120 Nearly 80% of all the outbreaks occurred in a home setting, while 34% came from a transportation setting.

00:12:25.120 Additionally, most of the home outbreaks resulted in three to five cases.

00:12:30.120 However, researchers were only able to find one outbreak that took place in an outdoor environment involving just two cases.

00:12:38.120 So, pretty much being outdoors is the safest place in the world.

00:12:45.120 It's not being the worst person in the world.

00:12:50.120 It's actually just being a normal person who isn't going to get sick.

00:12:53.120 Here's how BC has fared under that Dr. Bonnie Henry, as opposed to, say, Ontario.

00:12:58.120 Look at this. Look at Table 3 here.

00:13:02.120 Absolutely zero deaths in anyone under 40.

00:13:06.120 In British Columbia, that's 2.4 million people, by the way.

00:13:10.120 Zero deaths. None.

00:13:12.120 Nobody under 40 has died. Nobody.

00:13:15.120 Add in the 40s to the 60s.

00:13:17.120 So now you're talking about 3.75 million people.

00:13:20.120 Now you're cooking.

00:13:21.120 It's still a grand total of seven deaths.

00:13:24.120 Now, each one is a tragedy.

00:13:26.120 But that's, is that a pandemic?

00:13:28.120 Compare that to, say, the opioid drug called fentanyl.

00:13:32.120 Also, like the Wuhan virus, is typically from China.

00:13:36.120 Let me show you what fentanyl alone has done in British Columbia.

00:13:40.120 So, like I said before, it's seven deaths under age 60 from the coronavirus.

00:13:46.120 Seven. Just seven.

00:13:48.120 In the entire population, including people in their 80s and 90s, total deaths, 177.

00:13:53.120 By the way, it's a tiny fraction of Ontario's death toll.

00:13:56.120 A sliver of a fraction of Ontario's death toll.

00:13:58.120 But look at this.

00:13:59.120 This is on the opioid side.

00:14:01.120 Table 1, that's deaths by fentanyl.

00:14:04.120 396 deaths this year alone.

00:14:08.120 Average age, people in their 30s.

00:14:10.120 So yeah, going to the beach is not the worst thing in the world.

00:14:14.120 Telling people they can't go to the beach is actually worse for their health.

00:14:19.120 And it's just being mean.

00:14:21.120 And maybe once we're done fighting the China virus,

00:14:24.120 and by the way, we are done fighting the China virus, it's over.

00:14:28.120 Maybe we can start fighting the other deadly import from China. 1.00

00:14:32.120 Drugs.

00:14:33.120 As opposed to doing the left-wing thing and giving them out for free

00:14:37.120 in legalized shooting drug galleries like they do across Canada.

00:14:42.120 Stay with us for more.

00:14:44.120 We've got a book interview with a rebel alumnus that's next.

00:14:48.120 Well, I am very excited about our next guest.

00:15:02.120 You'll remember him for his great series of videos that he did for us at Rebel News.

00:15:08.120 He's a prolific pundit, and I can't believe how many great books he writes.

00:15:14.120 And so when I heard he had a new one, I thought we've got to get Kurt Schlichter back on the show.

00:15:19.120 You know him from a series of near-future, slightly dystopian novels about America.

00:15:25.120 But this next one I think is going to be of great interest to America watchers up here,

00:15:31.120 especially for those of you who, like me, are pro-Trump.

00:15:35.120 The book, which is released tomorrow on Regnery, and you can order it now on Amazon,

00:15:41.120 is called The 21 Biggest Lies About Donald Trump and You.

00:15:48.120 And joining us now via Skype is Kurt Schlichter.

00:15:51.120 Kurt, first of all, it's great to see you again.

00:15:53.120 You've certainly kept yourself busy.

00:15:54.120 Great to see you!

00:15:56.120 I have tried to, but I like to think we're in the same fight.

00:16:01.120 I like to think that Anida's about three or four years ahead of where their left is about three or four years ahead of our left.

00:16:09.120 And you guys are kind of a terrifying glimpse of the future.

00:16:12.120 The way that you've been treated has been positively Banana Republic style.

00:16:18.120 And it's stunning and frightening but inspiring that you continue to resist.

00:16:24.120 And I'm very proud to have been associated with you in Rebel News and fighting back against this kind of petty and not-so-petty tyranny.

00:16:33.120 Well, thank you for that.

00:16:34.120 And yeah, I mean, if we are a cautionary tale for all Americans, hold on to your First Amendment, hold on to your Second Amendment,

00:16:41.120 because those will be the first to go.

00:16:43.120 That's the basis upon which everything else rests.

00:16:46.120 So learn from our flaws and our mistakes.

00:16:50.120 Now, let's get into your book.

00:16:52.120 It's called The 21 Biggest Lies About Donald Trump and You.

00:16:55.120 Now, can you tell me why you add on the words, and you?

00:17:00.120 What does that mean?

00:17:01.120 Well, it's the most important part, Ezra.

00:17:04.120 And I think in your own work, you've seen the same thing.

00:17:08.120 Remember, the fight isn't against Donald Trump.

00:17:11.120 These guys loved Donald Trump.

00:17:13.120 They liked to party with him.

00:17:14.120 He was glamorous.

00:17:15.120 They could ride in this plane.

00:17:16.120 They were pretty girls. 0.76

00:17:18.120 He'd give them money in donations.

00:17:20.120 And then they realized, wait a minute.

00:17:23.120 This guy doesn't respect us.

00:17:25.120 And he's attempting to take power on behalf of a social class.

00:17:30.120 The normal Americans.

00:17:31.120 The working Americans.

00:17:33.120 The one who built this country.

00:17:34.120 Feed it.

00:17:35.120 Fuel it.

00:17:36.120 Defend it.

00:17:37.120 And taking it away from the elite.

00:17:38.120 When the elite realized, not only was he serious about taking power from them.

00:17:44.120 But he didn't respect them.

00:17:45.120 He wasn't impressed by them.

00:17:46.120 He'd seen them up close.

00:17:47.120 Why should he be impressed?

00:17:49.120 He is an avatar for us, regular Americans and regular Canadians, too, who just want to be

00:17:56.120 free people left alone.

00:17:58.120 But our garbage elite can't do that. 1.00

00:18:01.120 They don't have a religion. 0.81

00:18:02.120 They don't have any kind of cultural understanding or any kind of moral framework.

00:18:07.120 Instead, they have this bizarre pagan religion, which here manifests as climate cult idiocy, 0.94

00:18:14.120 where they're worshiping the words of some Swedish waif or whatever.

00:18:21.120 It's about you.

00:18:24.120 It's about silencing you.

00:18:26.120 It's about keeping you down.

00:18:28.120 It's about making you impoverished and obedient and helpless.

00:18:31.120 And this book, this book is a handbook to fight back.

00:18:34.120 You know, it's funny you say that.

00:18:36.120 You make me think of a meme, a little image that Trump tweeted.

00:18:40.120 And the New York Times objected and took it down.

00:18:43.120 It's this very powerful photograph.

00:18:46.120 And Trump's looking at you and says, yes, they're not coming for me.

00:18:49.120 They're coming for you.

00:18:50.120 I'm just standing in the way.

00:18:52.120 It's a great meme.

00:18:53.120 And as if to prove Trump right, the New York Times demanded that Twitter take that photo down.

00:19:00.120 So you're right.

00:19:01.120 Trump is the pointy end of the spear.

00:19:05.120 He's the front line for so many of us, whether it's free speech or rule of law

00:19:11.120 or a sensible pro-Western, pro-democratic foreign affairs policy.

00:19:18.120 I've said before that Trump's reelection this November is probably more important to the fate of freedom in Canada even than our own election.

00:19:28.120 And I'm not saying that out of any dismissiveness for Canada.

00:19:31.120 It's just so important for everywhere from Iran to China.

00:19:35.120 It couldn't be more important.

00:19:37.120 Now, let me ask you this.

00:19:39.120 One of the so-called fact checkers in the United States who's obsessed with Donald Trump is named Daniel Dale.

00:19:46.120 And I'm embarrassed to say he came from Canada.

00:19:49.120 He started off for the Toronto Star fact checking the late great mayor Rob Ford.

00:19:55.120 And I read a couple of his fact checks and they were all opinion checks.

00:19:59.120 He would say, well, Trump's wrong on this or wrong on that.

00:20:02.120 But I could never find a fact that was wrong.

00:20:05.120 Maybe there might have been a little bit of overheated adjectives.

00:20:08.120 But all this about Donald Trump fact checks and now Facebook has imported them and whatnot.

00:20:14.120 It's really people just disagreeing with his opinion.

00:20:17.120 He actually generally gets things right more than any other politician or as much as any other politician.

00:20:23.120 Well, that's certainly true.

00:20:25.120 And I consider him the most talented politician of the last 30 years, the previous one being Bill Clinton.

00:20:30.120 Again, I oppose Bill Clinton.

00:20:31.120 But technically, I mean, he was a superb politician and communicator.

00:20:36.120 And then before that, Ronald Reagan here in the United States.

00:20:39.120 Look, you're absolutely right.

00:20:41.120 Facts don't matter.

00:20:42.120 That's one of the points of the 21 biggest lies about Donald Trump and you.

00:20:46.120 The elite is post fact.

00:20:49.120 The elite is concerned with one thing.

00:20:50.120 It's concerned with power.

00:20:51.120 It works backwards from there.

00:20:53.120 It's like its version of science.

00:20:55.120 Well, we need more power.

00:20:58.120 So let's create an entire framework of global temperature panic to justify, wow, everything we wanted.

00:21:08.120 It's amazing.

00:21:10.120 Everything they justify is everything they've always wanted but couldn't get any other way.

00:21:14.120 And that's what you see here.

00:21:15.120 There's no facts to check.

00:21:17.120 They don't care about facts.

00:21:19.120 In fact, they will tell you facts aren't important.

00:21:23.120 It doesn't matter.

00:21:24.120 It's about power.

00:21:25.120 And facts don't matter when you fight them.

00:21:27.120 As the book teaches, facts are important when you go to other normal people who aren't engaged.

00:21:31.120 If you say, hey, if you believe Black Lives Matter, why are you tearing down a statue of Abe Lincoln?

00:21:38.120 And a normal person would go, yeah, I don't remember high school real well.

00:21:41.120 I was partying a lot, driving my career, listening to Pink Floyd.

00:21:44.120 But I do seem to remember that Abe Lincoln was kind of ended slavery.

00:21:49.120 I remember that part.

00:21:50.120 While an elite person would go, well, he's part of a colonial paradigm that empowers the cisgender patriarchy.

00:21:56.120 So it's important that we destroy his statue, too.

00:21:59.120 So we have to maintain facts to convince the unconvinced.

00:22:03.120 As far as fighting the left, we need to do what we need to do, which is power.

00:22:08.120 We need to get power through the electoral system, exercise it ruthlessly to enforce the standards that made Western civilization.

00:22:16.120 We're talking with Kurt Schlichter, a rebel commentator alumnus.

00:22:21.120 His new book is called The 21 Biggest Lies About Donald Trump and You.

00:22:25.120 You can find the link to it below this video.

00:22:28.120 Let me read a little bit.

00:22:29.120 And the book goes on sale tomorrow, but people can pre-order as soon as right now.

00:22:33.120 So that's exciting.

00:22:34.120 I love lists.

00:22:36.120 I love 21 things.

00:22:38.120 I love it.

00:22:39.120 It's very readable.

00:22:40.120 Yeah, it's not butt speed, okay?

00:22:41.120 It's not.

00:22:42.120 It's not.

00:22:43.120 Oh, I know.

00:22:44.120 I know.

00:22:45.120 I know.

00:22:46.120 I'm just trying to come up with my own list.

00:22:47.120 Let me read a little bit from your blurb, because there's a couple points here that people

00:22:52.120 will immediately say, oh, yeah, that's right.

00:22:54.120 Let me just read a couple.

00:22:57.120 Why liberals cry racism at any argument they don't like when the real racists of American history

00:23:03.120 have all been the Democrats.

00:23:05.120 Trump has always been a friend of African Americans, Jews, gays, whatever.

00:23:13.120 I mean, you're in Manhattan in the real estate business.

00:23:16.120 If you're not, you're not going to survive.

00:23:18.120 And then your next one, how Trump, quote, the warmonger, has actually given America a

00:23:24.120 more realistic and safer foreign policy than any of his immediate predecessors.

00:23:28.120 Trump's about the opposite of a warmonger.

00:23:31.120 And some of the deep state really want him to attack things.

00:23:34.120 He's actually dialed it back.

00:23:36.120 You would think the left would like that.

00:23:39.120 Trump has not initiated a new war.

00:23:42.120 He's the first president who has not initiated a new war since arguably Jimmy Carter, who

00:23:47.120 sent guys in to rescue hostages.

00:23:49.120 But if you talk a real war, yeah, I mean, he's I mean, you know, Reagan, who I support, obviously,

00:23:55.120 went into Lebanon, went into Grenada.

00:23:57.120 Bush went into Panama and Desert Storm.

00:23:59.120 I know I was in Desert Storm, you know, and then so on.

00:24:05.120 Bill Clinton, Kosovo, Bosnia, Somalia, George W. Bush.

00:24:10.120 We all remember Iraq and Afghanistan.

00:24:12.120 Obama added Libya.

00:24:14.120 You know, if you want to do warmongering, Trump is not very good at it.

00:24:17.120 Trump's good at finishing it.

00:24:19.120 He's finishing Afghanistan after two decades.

00:24:22.120 Our elite failed to win a battle chasing around a bunch of guys in turbans through the Hindu 1.00

00:24:27.120 Kush. 0.61

00:24:28.120 He could.

00:24:29.120 They couldn't handle this.

00:24:30.120 This is what this is one of the big points I keep coming back to, Ezra, about these liars,

00:24:34.120 the elite liars.

00:24:36.120 And we had a generation that came after World War Two.

00:24:39.120 They won't.

00:24:40.120 They beat the Nazis in Japan.

00:24:41.120 They beat the depression.

00:24:42.120 And then the generation of followed in America's civil rights.

00:24:46.120 We put a man on the moon.

00:24:47.120 What's this generation done? 0.56

00:24:49.120 The one that's in charge now, these unaccomplished losers. 1.00

00:24:51.120 I can think of a few things.

00:24:53.120 The other thing is, they're liars, and they have no humility.

00:24:54.120 And I've rarely met a group of people, a cast, C-A-S-T-E cast, of people for whom humility

00:24:58.120 and being humble is so well justified.

00:25:03.120 Well, let me ask you, you've got 21 lies about Trump.

00:25:08.120 Let me ask you this last question.

00:25:10.120 What do you think has been the most effective, most successful lie told about Donald Trump?

00:25:32.120 Wow.

00:25:33.120 That's a good question.

00:25:35.120 Actually, 22 lies, I added in a pangolin pandemic panic chapter right at the end.

00:25:41.120 Oh, yeah.

00:25:42.120 So you get a little virus fun.

00:25:44.120 Yeah.

00:25:45.120 What's the most effective one?

00:25:47.120 It's somehow Trump is an other.

00:25:52.120 And that's not one of the big, that's kind of an amalgamation of all the lies.

00:25:58.120 But you put it all together.

00:25:59.120 Trump is an other, not like you.

00:26:02.120 He's a threat.

00:26:03.120 He's a danger.

00:26:05.120 He's everything that is bad about America.

00:26:08.120 And that itself is the biggest lie because he represents everything as good.

00:26:12.120 He is a guy who has what I call the bar philosophy.

00:26:16.120 You walk into a bar.

00:26:18.120 You sit down with a guy named Lou who builds things for a living.

00:26:22.120 You're having a beer, a Molson's, for instance.

00:26:27.120 And you're drinking the Molson's.

00:26:29.120 And you say, what do you think of Afghanistan?

00:26:31.120 He goes, well, if we haven't won in 20 years, what are we doing there?

00:26:34.120 My friend Jimmy's son got shot in the leg there in Hellman province.

00:26:38.120 I don't understand what's going on there.

00:26:40.120 Of course, you know, and our great soldiers and great Canadian soldiers for whom all Americans

00:26:45.120 are proud, by the way.

00:26:46.120 We love our Canadian friends.

00:26:48.120 Yeah.

00:26:49.120 And Lou says, I don't know what we're doing.

00:26:51.120 If we're not going to win it, let's get the hell out and stop hurting our kids.

00:26:54.120 And then you get some elite guy, you know, with three degrees from Harvard Foreign Policy,

00:27:00.120 Georgetown School of Foreign Policy comes in.

00:27:02.120 Well, the correlation of forces in the central Middle East region requires that we have a power

00:27:09.120 display and Lou's like, Lou's like, wait a minute.

00:27:13.120 If we ain't going to win, get out.

00:27:15.120 Yeah.

00:27:16.120 And Donald Trump's the guy who sees that kind of common sense and doesn't allow himself

00:27:21.120 to be sucked into this vortex of academia speak that leads to confusion and moral obscurity.

00:27:30.120 Yeah.

00:27:31.120 You know, I'm just thinking, I mean, I haven't read your book yet.

00:27:35.120 It comes out tomorrow.

00:27:36.120 I'm really excited about it.

00:27:37.120 I'm just thinking about some of the effects.

00:27:39.120 Can I throw a few at you?

00:27:40.120 And you tell me if you can answer what you think.

00:27:42.120 Sure.

00:27:43.120 I think one of the worst lies that he's pro-Russia, pro-Putin.

00:27:47.120 He's so hard on that country.

00:27:49.120 He's tightened all the sanctions on him.

00:27:52.120 Mueller exonerated him, but that still sticks.

00:27:56.120 He's literally killed hundreds of Russians.

00:28:00.120 They attacked one of our positions in Syria, which he wants to get out of.

00:28:05.120 And he unleashed and he killed hundreds of them.

00:28:08.120 I mean, if you kill people, you're not doing collaboration well.

00:28:12.120 Look, I'm literally a cold warrior.

00:28:14.120 I was literally a lieutenant in Germany, near Stuttgart, shivering in the cold, on alert.

00:28:20.120 My orders were, die in place, hold, hold until relieved, die if necessary.

00:28:25.120 I mean, that's literally my own time.

00:28:27.120 I'm literally a cold warrior.

00:28:28.120 I was literally putting my behind and the collective behinds of my unit on the line to stop Russians. 1.00

00:28:35.120 And now I get lectured by these goateed little weirdos who can't do a push-up and write for Vox.

00:28:41.120 You love Putin.

00:28:42.120 Dude, I know how to kill Russians. 1.00

00:28:44.120 When you know how to use a battalion to wipe out a motor rifle regiment, you come and instruct me on Russia, you little sissy. 0.97

00:28:53.120 And I was totally worried, too.

00:28:57.120 I thought, Mueller, that's going to put an end to it.

00:28:59.120 Was that lie going to be, you know, overcome by events?

00:29:02.120 But, you know, last week we got the Afghanistan bounties thing, which was transparent nonsense and has completely disappeared.

00:29:09.120 So the book is, I mean, it's today.

00:29:14.120 It's all up to date.

00:29:16.120 You're seeing it live.

00:29:18.120 I love it.

00:29:19.120 Well, I tell you, very exciting, well, very timely, obviously, and such a needed antidote.

00:29:26.120 It's called, it's by Regnery, which is quite an impressive publisher.

00:29:30.120 It's called The 21 Biggest Lies.

00:29:31.120 They're very good.

00:29:32.120 And you, by our friend Kurt Schlichter.

00:29:34.120 Kurt, congratulations.

00:29:35.120 You've done it again.

00:29:36.120 I tell you, you're so prolific.

00:29:38.120 But I love it.

00:29:39.120 And we enjoyed your work at Rebel News.

00:29:41.120 And we follow you with great interest from up here.

00:29:43.120 Come back any time you have some news for us.

00:29:46.120 And I can hardly wait to talk about your next book, too.

00:29:49.120 I can hardly wait, too.

00:29:51.120 It's been too long.

00:29:52.120 I love the Rebel audience.

00:29:54.120 You guys are great.

00:29:55.120 You guys are so supportive of my little videos.

00:29:58.120 And I'm really glad that you asked me to come on today.

00:30:01.120 Thank you very much.

00:30:02.120 And I hope everyone will go check out The 21 Biggest Lies about Donald Trump and you.

00:30:05.120 And I want to emphasize, it's funny.

00:30:07.120 It's not a Bataan death march of, you know, I'm not leveraging my strategic studies degree

00:30:14.120 and my poli-sci degree to bore you with jargon.

00:30:17.120 It's like our talk today, except with more swears.

00:30:21.120 Well, listen, you do a great job and we're thrilled to support you in any way we can.

00:30:26.120 Keep in touch, my friend.

00:30:28.120 And this is such an important election down there, not just for Americans, but I tell you that around the world,

00:30:33.120 anyone who loves freedom and democracy is watching with bated breath from Hong Kong to Israel to India to Canada

00:30:41.120 to people behind Iron Curtains, whether it's in Iran or North Korea.

00:30:45.120 So you guys will choose so much of the course of the world and we wish you good luck and good judgment.

00:30:50.120 Take care, my friend.

00:30:51.120 Thank you, my friend.

00:30:52.120 All right.

00:30:53.120 There you have a Kurt Schlichter.

00:30:54.120 And you can get the book right now.

00:30:56.120 You can order it at the Amazon link under this video.

00:31:00.120 Stay with us.

00:31:01.120 Hey, welcome back on my monologue Friday.

00:31:15.120 Ian writes, so adult men can play games, but not children grow up Canada.

00:31:20.120 You're talking about the Toronto Blue Jays, millionaire players, billionaire owners,

00:31:25.120 most of them flying in from the States where they're all down there anyways. 0.93

00:31:29.120 And that's completely kosher, but you can't go to the park and play a game with your kids.

00:31:36.120 Yeah, that's politics.

00:31:38.120 That's not pandemics.

00:31:40.120 On my interview with Facebook whistleblower Ryan Hartwig, Chris writes, social media should

00:31:46.120 be considered a clear and present threat to the free world.

00:31:49.120 Well, I mean, it's unthinkable that two, three, four companies would own every single

00:31:54.120 TV, radio and newspaper, right?

00:31:56.120 But that's really what it's like when you have Google, YouTube, Twitter and Facebook, which

00:32:05.120 also owns Instagram and WhatsApp.

00:32:08.120 What's that?

00:32:09.120 99% of all social media, three companies, three left wing radical San Francisco based companies.

00:32:18.120 Yeah, that's a clear and present danger.

00:32:21.120 Ward writes, so he's a clerk that works for the records department of the Ministry of Truth.

00:32:26.120 Yeah.

00:32:27.120 I mean, I couldn't believe when he described 1500 people working three shifts and he said

00:32:32.120 he would go through 200 posts a shift.

00:32:35.120 So if my math is right, that office was doing 300,000 censorship acts a day.

00:32:43.120 And that's just the Phoenix office.

00:32:46.120 Unbelievable.

00:32:47.120 I couldn't believe it.

00:32:48.120 I want to follow up on that story some more.

00:32:50.120 Well, that's it for today.

00:32:52.120 I want to say thanks to you for those of you who have bought the book China virus. 0.69

00:32:55.120 I got my copy on Friday and I heard reports that people were actually getting deliveries

00:33:00.120 of it yesterday on a Sunday, which is very impressive to me.

00:33:03.120 The book hit number one in the Kindle on downloads.

00:33:07.120 That's an ebook.

00:33:08.120 And I think it hit number two in the paperback bestseller list.

00:33:12.120 You can get yours by simply going to China virus book dot com or go to Amazon.

00:33:18.120 All right.

00:33:19.120 Until tomorrow.

00:33:20.120 all of us here at rebel World headquarters to you at home.

00:33:23.120 Good night.

00:33:25.120 Keep fighting for freedom.
