00:00:42.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:23.000In the Federalist Papers, James Madison, who is called the father of the U.S. Constitution, argues that the legislative branch will be by far the most powerful of all three branches.
00:01:38.000Since, of course, the legislative branch is one of the most directly accountable to the public, especially back during the construction and the beginning of our country.
00:01:49.000Judges were appointed for life, and the president was only indirectly picked by the Electoral College.
00:01:56.000Only the House was elected directly through a popular vote, while senators were picked by directly elected state lawmakers.
00:02:05.000But I think we can agree, especially in the last decade, that Congress has actually felt like the weakest branch of government.
00:02:13.000The president exercises absolutely enormous power.
00:02:17.000Remember, Obama, I have a pen and I have a phone.
00:02:21.000Judges make up laws whenever they want.
00:02:24.000The president is able to appoint people of importance all throughout the government.
00:02:29.000He can make and unmake regulations with a stroke of a pen.
00:02:32.000If Biden wants us to have open borders, we're able to have open borders.
00:02:37.000He just tells ICE and Border Patrol to buzz off and boom, you know, the borders stay wide open.
00:03:02.000They have so much power, they basically invent constitutional rights out of thin air and throw out obviously constitutional legislation for being irrational.
00:03:11.000So Congress has looked very feeble by comparison, especially in the last decade.
00:03:17.000But what's been amazing is these last couple days is the revival and the strengthening of Article 1 of the congressional branch.
00:03:27.000Now, mind you, Pelosi and Schumer actually wanted the legislative branch to be subservient to activist judges and to the executive branch, as long as it's controlled by far left-wing radicals.
00:03:42.000The major stories that we are seeing right now in America, the major stories that are unfolding, all originate thanks to the fulfilling of a mandate of House Republicans, Kevin McCarthy.
00:03:57.000We are finally seeing this constitutional vacuum be filled.
00:04:02.000And the obvious story that has been taking up the most headlines, which we are going to start with today, is Kevin McCarthy fulfilling his promise to release the 40,000 plus hours of footage from what happened on January 6th.
00:04:18.000You could teach a college-level class on media in modern America just on this last week.
00:04:28.000Essentially, the people that have been telling us what happened on January 6th was an insurrection are now super mad that more and more footage of what happened on January 6th is being made public.
00:04:39.000If it was as bad as you say it is, why are you so upset?
00:05:52.000The only argument is that we want less people to see.
00:05:55.000We want less people to know what happened because there's a very fragile, artificial, synthetic, created narrative that was put on display by the January 6th show trial, who actually didn't even look at the footage.
00:06:21.000You're trying to tell me that you put a January 6th committee on cable television in prime time in the middle of all the other news that was happening, and you did not even bother to go look at the footage?
00:07:22.000Rupert Murdoch, who has admitted they were lies and said he regretted it, has a special obligation to stop Tucker Carlson from going on tonight now that he's seen how he has perverted and slimed the truth and from letting him go on again and again and again.
00:07:43.000Not because their views deserve such opprobrium, but because our democracy depends on it.
00:08:44.000I'm not going to defend everything they've ever done.
00:08:46.000But it is a fact that they are the last major, and I'm talking about on cable television, the main canon of cable television on DirecTV, ATT, and all that, the last dissident voice.
00:08:58.000And by the way, they've actively shut down those kind of equivalents in other countries.
00:09:04.000It is a moral good for the country that Tucker Carlson is able to get in front of millions of people every single night.

00:14:28.000How many people voted in the 2022 midterms under the belief that January 6th was one of the most violent insurrections, insurrections in our country's history?
00:14:39.000Would this footage have been persuasive to maybe bring down the political divisions in our country?
00:14:45.000No, they needed the narrative because they wanted to be able to use the intelligence agencies and be able to build a media movement against Trump supporters and against the America First Movement.
00:14:59.000Joe Rogan, I never would have imagined.
00:15:07.000It tends to be when you let the truth go free, all of a sudden these pesky little lies start to shatter.
00:15:16.000Look, it is time to consider a rollover of that 401k into an IRA.
00:15:22.000The investment world is completely different in 2023, and you cannot do the same thing as last year.
00:15:27.000Woke companies are aggressively implementing ESG.
00:15:31.000Interest rates are going up and inflation is still lingering.
00:15:34.000If you have over $150,000, now is the time to move your money to a biblical responsible investing strategy with my friends at PAX Financial Group.
00:16:41.000But the media and the machine and the Democrat Party, they really hate Matt Taibbi.
00:16:48.000Now, you might remember Matt Taibbi was one of the people, one of the journalists that received the Twitter files and made them public via Elon Musk.
00:16:59.000There's some question of who his sources are as well.
00:17:39.000The FTC has extraordinarily serious concerns about Twitter's handling of consumers' data and that there's something going on between congressional Republicans and Elon Musk.
00:17:54.000Mr. Chairman, Americans can see through this.
00:17:56.000Musk is helping you out politically and you're going out of your way to promote and protect him and to praise him for his work.
00:18:04.000This isn't just a matter of what data was given to these so-called journalists before us now.
00:18:09.000There are many legitimate questions about where Musk got the financing to buy Twitter.
00:18:15.000That is Stacey Plaskett, who is not a smart person or a good person.
00:19:24.000Ranking Member Plaskett, I'm not a so-called journalist.
00:19:28.000I've won the National Magazine Award, the I.F. Stone Award for Independent Journalism, and I've written 10 books, including four New York Times bestsellers.
00:19:39.000I'm now the editor of the online magazine Racket on the independent platform Substack.
00:19:48.000But look what happens next when they try and force them to reveal their sources.
00:19:52.000By the way, did the Democrats ever try to force the New York Times to reveal their sources about how they probably illegally obtained Donald Trump's tax returns, the private confidential tax returns of a sitting president when that story was published in October of 2020?
00:20:10.000Would anyone ask them to reveal their sources?
00:21:19.000But again, as I've said before, Musk is a tricky one.
00:21:22.000Musk is tricky because Musk simultaneously represents everything they hate.
00:21:30.000Rich, white, billionaire buying free speech, a platform to make a free speech, but he also simultaneously represents everything they're supposed to love.
00:22:19.000It's why they hate, I don't know if Rupert Murdoch was ever on their team, but anybody that was ever in their orbit, wearing the jersey, going to the cocktail parties.
00:22:32.000One of the reasons why Donald Trump personally made so many rich people angry is that they used to consider Donald Trump a soft ally for social liberalism, an easy $100,000 donation to whatever weird Democrat cause they want to go into New York.
00:22:50.000Elon Musk, because he's a free thinker, because he's smart, Elon Musk, who's created some unbelievably impressive companies, says, yeah, it's not a good thing that free speech is being eroded.
00:23:18.000Because Tesla, the boring company, the solar panel company, he's got a lot of things going on.
00:23:27.000And what really bothers the media, as the great Rush Limbaugh would tell us, is that if they feel as if they have created somebody, they want to be able to control that somebody.
00:23:40.000And Elon Musk, in a lot of different capacities, was kind of a creation of the Tony Starkification of mass media.
00:23:57.000He invents stuff in his sleep and he wakes up and he's going to have us levitating.
00:24:01.000And they don't like that if they can't control that.
00:24:05.000And then all of a sudden, Elon Musk uses his wealth to go purchase what really has been an intelligence asset, a class and ideology traitor may be the biggest enemy to the left.
00:24:18.000They need to make an example out of Elon Musk because they're terrified that there might be more defectors coming soon, that there might be other entrepreneurs, billionaires, millionaires.
00:24:29.000That's why they hate Joe Rogan and they try to cancel him.
00:24:33.000If you dare deviate from the loyalty to the party by an inch, they're going to come after you and they're going to come after you hard.
00:24:46.000Every day, these maniacs have a new story about Jake.
00:24:50.000They literally can't help themselves every single day.
00:24:53.000Type in J.K. Rowling into Google every single day, one hour ago, about her issue on the trans, literally every day, these miserable people, Washington Post, deadline, websites I've ever heard of.
00:25:07.000I'm miserable.com talk about how J.K. Rowling is an evil person.
00:25:12.000They want them to reveal that Musk was the source.
00:25:15.000If he is, they have new legal ammunition to take him off the chessboard.
00:25:18.000But Jim Jordan rightfully defended the right for them to maintain their sources.
00:26:16.000Because I had a different point of view.
00:26:18.000And I was told they made a decision that they would keep this confidential until they came up with a single narrative, which I will argue is antithetical to science.
00:26:27.000Science never selects a single narrative.
00:26:30.000We foster, as my colleague here just said, we foster debate.
00:26:34.000And we're confident that with debate, science will eventually get to the truth.
00:26:39.000This was an a priori decision that there's one point of view that we're going to put out there and anyone who doesn't agree with it is going to be sidelined.
00:26:48.000And as I say, I was only the CDC director and I was sidelined.
00:26:52.000Because he wasn't going to be obedient to what the regime needed to say.
00:27:00.000They needed to say that the virus came from a wet market.
00:28:23.000Dr. Fauci was affirmatively told in an email that NIAID had a monetary relationship with the Wuhan Institute through EcoHealth Alliance.
00:28:34.000He was told this in January 27th of 2020.
00:28:37.000Do you think that Dr. Fauci intentionally lied under oath to Senator Paul when he vehemently denied NIH's funding of gain of function research?
00:28:45.000I think there's no doubt that NIH was funding gain of function research.
00:28:48.000Is it likely that American tax dollars funded the gain of function research that created this virus?
00:28:53.000I think it did, not only from NIH, but from the State Department, USAID, and from DOD.
00:28:59.000I can't tell you how big this is, everybody.
00:29:14.000And now you have the former head of the CDC.
00:29:16.000This is not just some schlep that they picked off off the side of the street that stayed at a Holiday and Express last night.
00:29:21.000This is not just some random guy that has some theories.
00:29:24.000The head of the CDC is saying the Department of Defense, the State Department, NAID, NIH is involved in gain of function research, which then it begs the question: are they still involved in gain of function research?
