Rebel News Podcast - Who wants to celebrate three years of Doug Ford？

00:00:00.000 Tonight, it's the third year anniversary of Doug Ford becoming the leader of the Ontario

00:00:21.160 Progressive Conservatives. Has he lived up to the hype? It's March 10th, 2021. I'm David

00:00:27.720 Menzies and this is the Ezra Levent Show. Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon 0.54

00:00:35.080 consumer I know? There's 8,500 customers here and you won't give them an answer. The only thing I

00:00:40.880 have to say to the government about why I'm publishing it is because it's my bloody right to do so.

00:00:51.240 Well folks, look what plopped into my email box the other day. It was an e-letter from

00:00:57.380 somebody called Michelle Cooper and here's what it said. Quote, David, March 10th is a special

00:01:04.540 anniversary. It is the date that Doug became Ontario PC party leader. If you recall back in March 2018

00:01:14.040 our party held one of the fastest leaderships in Ontario's history. But it wasn't the speed of the

00:01:22.720 election that made history. Doug used his three months on the job as leader to defeat the 15-year-old

00:01:30.200 Liberal government and win us a majority. If anything, this past year has demonstrated that

00:01:37.340 elections matter and leadership matters. Premier Ford has been rock solid and is providing exactly the

00:01:46.680 leadership our province needs in this crisis. That's why we are launching a digital card to mark this

00:01:55.740 anniversary of becoming our leader. Show your appreciation to Doug and his family who have made

00:02:03.380 great sacrifices in serving our party. Sign your name, write a comment and let him know he has the

00:02:12.360 steadfast support of Ontarians. End quote. Well, it turns out folks that Ms. Cooper is the executive

00:02:19.980 director of the PC Ontario Fund and to show she has absolutely no shame whatsoever, she ends her

00:02:27.820 letter with this. David, if you are in a position to give, please consider donating to the Ontario PC

00:02:34.040 and ensure Doug has the resources to win next year's election. Donate here. End quote. Wow, and to think I'm

00:02:45.360 supposed to have a spam filter on my computer. You see, Michelle, my bell, I'm not in a position to donate and

00:02:53.500 neither are thousands and thousands of Yahoo Nation members for that matter. You know, Michelle, those folks who used to

00:03:01.880 be called Ford Nation before the premier had his Hillary Clinton-like basket full of deplorables moment

00:03:09.100 when he slurred them for exercising their right to protest the lockdown? Actually, Ford's comment was

00:03:17.660 way worse than Clinton's. After all, Hillary was targeting the enemy, i.e. Trump supporters. Doug was aiming the gun at

00:03:25.660 his own base. And it is surreal how Doug Ford has devolved over these last three short years, isn't it,

00:03:34.300 folks? Remember the 2018 election slogans like, for the people? Um, which people, Premier? The mean girls

00:03:43.200 in the media party that you used to condemn but now you suck up to at your daily press conferences?

00:03:49.020 And then there was that other 2018 Chestnut, Ontario, open for business. Gee, I see thousands

00:03:58.060 of businesses going under these days, Premier. Oh, but not Doug's business, folks. Deco Labels. Business

00:04:06.140 is apparently booming there. Hey, someone has to manufacture all that Wuhan virus protocol crap like

00:04:13.280 signs ordering you to put your face diaper on and those little floor arrows because the virus is a big fan of

00:04:21.980 one-way streets, apparently. You know, I think the jump the shark moment for Doug Ford came last year when

00:04:30.300 Patrick Brown, aka the man who would be Premier, well, Mr. Brown tweeted out that he was having dinner at Ford's

00:04:41.320 house. I mean, how freaking weird is that, folks? Brown is the lying liar that was given the palace coup 0.87

00:04:49.960 treatment back in January 2018. Doug Ford was his eventual replacement. Remember poor little Patty

00:04:58.480 bawling his eyes out as he was whisked away from the Ontario legislature in that salt-stained minivan?

00:05:05.460 And now this guy is breaking bread at Ford's home? But the most perverse irony here is that in three

00:05:14.580 years, Doug Ford is way more Patrick Brown than he is, oh, I don't know, Rob Ford? Doug's late great

00:05:23.540 brother was truly a man of the people. The question is, as Fred Willard used to always say, what happened?

00:05:33.060 I am reminded of the tagline from the 1979 film, The Seduction of Joe Tynan, starring Alan Alda and

00:05:41.980 Meryl Streep. The movie is about a liberal U.S. senator who compromises his values when he ends up in an

00:05:48.280 illicit love affair with a lawyer. The tagline reads, quote, there are many ways to be seduced, fame,

00:05:55.700 power, love. Joe Tynan knows them all, end quote. I think Doug Ford was seduced by power. He once

00:06:04.460 despised the elites, but he now gushes over them. He once had nothing good to say about members of

00:06:11.540 the mainstream media, and now he seemingly adores them. And he has clearly forgotten who got him into

00:06:19.240 that position of power. Thus, Ford Nation is a bunch of yahoos. And Rebel News? Well, we are now

00:06:27.000 media non grata. Doug was a featured guest speaker at a Rebel Live event some four years ago. Doug

00:06:35.020 personally pitched a weekly Rebel News show, Ford Nation. I was going to be the host, folks. But that was then,

00:06:43.380 and this is now. That was back when Doug was Mr. Ford, not Premier Ford. Doug says, the team directs him

00:06:53.000 now. Who is that team? Regardless, there is no weekly Ford Nation show, and we're banned from Ford's

00:07:01.380 pressers. And when I visited Ford's company, Deco Labels, last week for a story, an employee said to

00:07:09.520 leave the premises immediately, or he would call the police. Nice. So, Ms. Cooper, I won't be signing

00:07:19.060 the Premier's anniversary card, nor making a donation. And that's because Doug Ford, three years into his

00:07:26.940 term, clearly did not come as advertising going back to what he promised on the election campaign

00:07:36.020 in 2018. Indeed, Michelle, I hate to be rude here, but two questions arise. First, what is there

00:07:44.840 exactly to celebrate? And perhaps more importantly, who exactly is celebrating three years worth of Doug

00:07:53.500 Ford during these oh-so-rotten days we live in? Stay with us for more, folks.

00:08:06.020 Well, folks, thanks to the Wuhan virus and the economic lockdowns the virus spawned the world 1.00

00:08:17.480 over, the past 12 months have been downright brutal for so, so many people. Breadwinners were forced to

00:08:26.200 take benefits to get by as businesses collapsed. Surely the damage to the world economy is at the

00:08:33.340 trillions of dollars level. But get this. Some people are actually happy about this. In fact,

00:08:41.620 these same people are clamouring for an economic lockdown to occur every two years. Why? Well,

00:08:50.940 apparently kneecapping the economy will allow nations to meet their Paris Climate Accord targets.

00:08:58.300 No, folks, this is not a premature April Fool's Day joke. And with more on this cockamamie climate idea

00:09:06.260 is our friend Mark Moreno, who heads up the Washington-based, D.C.-based Climate Depot. Hey,

00:09:12.700 Mark, welcome to the Ezra Levin Show. Mark, we've witnessed so much nonsense from the climate change camp,

00:09:20.880 but this really takes the cake, doesn't it? I mean, wishing a global depression upon the world

00:09:28.320 on a biannual basis for improving our climate change record?

00:09:34.580 This is where we've been headed since they did the first COVID lockdown over a year ago. And what this

00:09:42.560 was, this was a new study in the journal Nature. And actually, oddly enough, guess where the researchers

00:09:48.320 were from, the University of East Anglia, the heart of the climate gate scandal from 11 years ago,

00:09:53.780 where they had the hacked emails show that there was top UN scientists conspiring. So we're getting

00:09:59.220 a little glimpse into what their plan is here. And they basically, the study concluded that CO2 emissions

00:10:04.460 need to drop by the same amount as the recent global lockdown every two years. So if you love COVID

00:10:11.880 lockdowns, you're going to love the coming climate lockdowns to fight global warming.

00:10:16.560 Mark, let me take a wild guess here. These people espousing this advice and these opinions,

00:10:24.200 I'm betting that they don't suffer at all during an economic lockdown, that while the entire world

00:10:30.760 economy goes into some kind of a lockdown mode, their paychecks are somehow still going through.

00:10:36.380 Would I be correct in making that assumption?

00:10:38.700 It is correct that every single person you see on your media platform, whether it's the mainstream

00:10:46.500 media or on even cable news, CNN, all the network news, and all the government bureaucrats, all the

00:10:54.100 local politicians, all the health directors, not a single one of them, none of the journalists

00:10:58.860 supporting it are facing any kind of impact to their salaries and their jobs from this. And these are the

00:11:05.060 ones. I just watched here in Washington, D.C., Local Channel 9. This pompous local news anchor gave

00:11:11.180 a category, basically gave a commentary, basically saying, we're still all in this together. Well,

00:11:16.140 tell that to the restaurant owners. Tell that to the schoolchildren. Tell that to all the workers who

00:11:21.800 have been affected, displaced, lost their job, and no universal basic income, which is what COVID

00:11:27.000 relief is going to morph into, is going to help that. But this is essentially the elite class telling

00:11:32.800 everyone else, we're all in this together. We know we're not all in this together because it's been

00:11:36.320 the largest transfer of wealth from the poor and middle class to the billionaire class in the history

00:11:41.300 of our country.

00:11:42.640 Mark, if I think, I think if I hear that phrase, we're all in this together one more time, I'm going

00:11:46.700 to have a heart attack. I mean, that has now supplanted the check is in the mail and hi, I'm from the

00:11:52.980 government. I'm here to help you as the biggest lie of all time. But you know, Mark, what I see is that

00:11:59.360 when these people in their ivory towers are espousing these kind of policies, it leads to a

00:12:06.260 lack of empathy. We see so many people unemployed now, we see businesses that have been around for

00:12:11.860 decades, not economic startups going under. Also, the social costs, you see depression off the chart,

00:12:20.940 rates of suicide, spousal abuse, if you can believe it. There is so much evidence out there to suggest

00:12:27.580 that the so-called cure is far worse than the Wuhan curse. And yet these people want to inflict

00:12:35.480 this grotesque misery on the planet every two years. I'm sorry, that does not compute for me,

00:12:43.900 my friend.

00:12:45.260 Well, to be fair to the study, that's exactly right. This is what the advocates want to do. In fact,

00:12:50.800 they're even saying now for the flying, you know, they're talking about slowly allowing more routes

00:12:55.880 and international travel. Of course, you're going to need a COVID passport or a freedom passport,

00:12:59.900 as they're calling it. But what they're doing is they're saying in the climate world that you have

00:13:04.820 to have a morally justifiable reason to fly. This is what a climate activist, Eric Holtweiss,

00:13:09.680 has suggested. So think of that. During these COVID lockdowns, curfews, you needed a legitimate

00:13:15.200 reason to go to the store. You had to have, you know, essential services, all the essential reasons,

00:13:20.700 you had to be for medicine or food. Well, now they want to morph that over to the climate world and

00:13:25.680 in the form of lockdown. You want to fly for a vacation to Florida? Well, wait a minute. I

00:13:30.080 don't think that's going to, that's not essential. You've been denied. I had someone from East

00:13:34.740 Germany, from former East Germany, showing me the regulations of East Germany. They're now

00:13:39.800 morphing the COVID lockdowns, the climate lockdowns, are aping, copying the East German 0.98

00:13:44.820 government's old travel rules under this new climate emergency declaration that we're facing.

00:13:50.380 You know, Mark, it's just astounding. It just seems that so many people attached

00:13:54.520 to the environmental movement have no basic understanding of economics. I mean, look at

00:14:02.140 the damage these lockdowns have occurred. They don't care. And when we look back before this

00:14:08.820 nonsense started, we had AOC promoting her Green New Deal. I think the off-the-lot price for that 0.99

00:14:15.900 is something like $98 trillion. And this is after what we just went through. Is there maybe some

00:14:23.800 evidence here, Mark, that really the Green Movement is the Red Movement? What I mean by that is that 0.57

00:14:32.220 these are really Marxists. They don't give a rodent's rectum about the climate, about the environment.

00:14:38.200 This is all about the reset. This is all about communism, socialism. That's what's really driving the

00:14:46.660 agenda here.

00:14:47.820 I think you're happy. This is not—and let's update your phrase there, David. They don't give an anal

00:14:53.020 swab about the climate. They don't give a Chinese mandated anal swab, you know, the Chinese government. 0.99

00:15:00.160 What they're doing, global warming is really the latest scare of the last 50 years, the progressive

00:15:04.900 environmental movement, trying to scare us. In my upcoming book called Green Fraud, which comes out

00:15:09.860 later this month, I devote an entire chapter to the 1970s global cooling coming ice age scare. They

00:15:16.140 thought our fossil fuels were creating global dimming, which was going to cause a global cooling

00:15:20.700 on the earth. That entire movement, guess what the solutions were to man-made global cooling induced by

00:15:27.420 fossil fuels? It was wealth redistribution, central planning, sovereignty limiting treaties. I go through

00:15:34.000 point by point of all the solutions in the 1970s. It is amazing. Nothing has changed. All they've done

00:15:40.920 is plug-and-play environmental scares. You want to worry about overpopulation, resource scarcity,

00:15:46.800 global cooling, global warming, species extinction, deforestation. It doesn't matter what the scare is.

00:15:52.340 It's plug-and-play. The solution's always the same. And amazingly, it's a Green New Deal-style 0.94

00:15:57.760 solution going back to the 1960s of just basically government takeover of every aspect of your lives.

00:16:03.980 Yeah. So really, I guess what you're saying, Mark, is there is nothing new about this so-called

00:16:09.300 Green New Deal. It's just that they come up to the plate every decade or so and try another swing.

00:16:15.680 Last question. You know, Mark, I know you've had regime change in Washington. Unfortunately,

00:16:21.680 I can only imagine so many of the progressive Democrats actually being on side with this

00:16:28.180 cockamamie nonsense. But let me put it to you this way. If there was a referendum in the United

00:16:34.120 States and Americans could say, yeah, this is a great idea. Lock down the economy for a year every

00:16:41.200 two years. Or no, are you insane? I want to go back to work. I want to resurrect my business from

00:16:48.200 the ashes of bankruptcy. How would that referendum go? How do you think it would turn out, my friend?

00:16:53.820 Well, do you mean how would the people vote or how would the votes be counted?

00:16:57.540 Oh, God.

00:16:59.500 That's a real question on that one. You know, I just can't imagine. I think even here's an

00:17:05.560 interesting story. I mean, even in the blue states like California and others, we're seeing what

00:17:10.700 people really think of lockdowns. We're seeing them flee California. You know what the highest area in

00:17:16.220 California fleeing is, is the San Francisco area, one of the hardest lockdown areas. So we're seeing

00:17:21.640 in New York, all the people fleeing to Florida. So even the hardcore progressive left, even though

00:17:27.280 they mouth support for these policies, when it comes time to live under the insanity of a government

00:17:32.920 controlled lockdown, they're out of there. They go to the free states. The sad part is, David,

00:17:37.840 they're going to corrupt the politics now of Florida and Texas. As more and more blue Democrat 0.59

00:17:43.600 voters move to these states, they're going to start voting for more liberal policies and end up

00:17:47.560 locking those states down in the future. So it's, you know, there's actually the whole movements of

00:17:52.280 you're welcome to our state, but don't bring your politics with you. But that's unfortunately going

00:17:56.460 to be a losing battle. You know, I'm so afraid that you're right about that, Mark. I mean,

00:18:01.080 from so many of these blue states, New York, New Jersey, California, Illinois, we see an exodus of

00:18:07.900 people going to states like Texas and Florida. And once they get there, and they're fleeing high

00:18:12.960 taxes, they're fleeing clampdowns on their freedom. And once they get to these other states,

00:18:17.900 they go, you know what, we need bicycle trails here. You know what, we need solar panels here.

00:18:22.140 They bring that virus with them. That's the true virus. I think this kind of progressive thinking

00:18:29.420 in terms of believing that these initiatives that are centered ostensibly on climate is going to

00:18:37.740 bring about a utopia when, in fact, it achieves the opposite. Mark, what's the name of that book

00:18:43.720 of yours coming out in the months ahead? It's coming out, well, it's coming out March 23rd.

00:18:47.620 It's called Green Fraud, Why the Green New Deal is Even Worse Than You Think. It's Regnery Publishing.

00:18:52.900 And it goes through an A to Z in the Green New Deal. And I actually have an entire chapter devoted to

00:18:58.680 the COVID climate connection, the lockdowns, how they literally want to morph right over. John Kerry

00:19:03.700 himself has said, the differences, the similarities are astounding between COVID and climate. In

00:19:10.360 other words, the solution is always the same, as I mentioned, COVID, government control of every

00:19:14.960 aspect of your lives, because we're too stupid to realize we should wash our hands and maybe stay 0.89

00:19:19.480 away if there's a virus going around. Instead, we need to have regulations and mask mandates until the

00:19:24.380 end of time. And then, of course, the freedom passports in quotes. So the book covers every aspect,

00:19:29.600 Green Fraud, coming out March 23rd. Thank you. Fantastic, Mark. Well, there you have it. Thank

00:19:35.340 you so much for joining me on the Ezreal Event Show, Mark. And thank you for your work as a watchdog

00:19:41.100 against all this crazy nonsense we see perpetrating on the behalf of climate. And there you have it,

00:19:47.360 folks. Green Fraud, March 25th. I can guarantee you that is going to be must-read material. Keep it

00:19:54.240 here. More of the Ezreal Event Show to come after this.

00:19:59.600 Hey, folks. Thanks so much for tuning in. The Big Boss Man, Ezreal Event. He'll be back here

00:20:12.960 tomorrow. In the meantime, good night.

00:20:29.600 Give it to you in. Thank you.
