00:00:00.000 Hey, everybody.
00:00:02.000 One of the most censored panels ever done in the history of the United States Senate with Senator Ron Johnson from Wisconsin.
00:00:08.000 He does a great job, and we have a conversation with him, and we go through the panel, the implications of it, and how you can help him.
00:00:16.000 Also, the breaking news of Justice Breyer retiring from the Supreme Court.
00:00:20.000 What are the implications of that?
00:00:22.000 That and so much more.

00:00:42.000 Buckle up, everybody, here we go.
00:00:44.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:46.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
00:00:48.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:51.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:54.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:55.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:56.000 His spirit, his love of this country.
00:00:58.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:05.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:14.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:28.000 If you were to get a serious diagnosis from a doctor and something that just doesn't feel right, what is the kind of the practical wisdom that people would tell you?
00:01:40.000 Go get a second opinion.
00:01:43.000 If you were to get diagnosed by a doctor and they say, well, you only have six weeks to live, you'd say, yeah, I'd like to get another opinion.
00:01:49.000 Or they say, you must undergo chemotherapy.
00:01:51.000 You'll probably say, yeah, I'm going to go get another opinion.
00:01:54.000 It's the old adage, two heads are better than one.
00:01:57.000 Differences of opinion when it comes to medicine is nothing new.
00:02:02.000 But instead, we had our entire public health portfolio, the entire approach to medicine, the entire approach to people's movements, to children's education, all designed around an allegedly incorruptible group of experts.
00:02:26.000 Now, these experts had not actually been medical doctors.
00:02:29.000 They actually hadn't been in situations at times to prescribe medication or deal with adverse events.
00:02:38.000 These people are best described as shills of the pharmaceutical industry, from Fauci to Rochelle Walensky to Dr. Burks, all the way down to Francis Collins.
00:02:52.000 It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make the public health authorities relevant.
00:02:57.000 They got unprecedented television time.
00:02:59.000 They had unquestioned and unchecked power.
00:03:02.000 It was the independent regulatory agency's dream for any regulator or bureaucrat in government to have that much power.
00:03:12.000 It was almost as if they were given the unilateral authority to go invade a country.
00:03:19.000 We had not seen a marshaling of resources, a consolidation of authority to one subset of people since Dwight D. Eisenhower controlled the allied forces of the invasion of Europe in Normandy, France on D-Day.
00:03:36.000 We've never seen anything close to it.
00:03:40.000 However, it became increasingly clear, especially for shows like ours and many others, very early on, that we were Designing society and making choices not based on the science, but instead based on the scientists that were appointed and given power.
00:04:01.000 Fauci was given ability to shut down your child's school, to mandate vaccines, to propagandize the public.
00:04:11.000 Fauci, of course, famously once said that masks did not work.
00:04:15.000 Then he said you must be wearing a mask at all times.
00:04:20.000 From the efficacy of vaccines to the new variants to the war on early treatments, the question always should have been, and it was, to be fair, for many of us, we are just suppressed and choked by some people in the Republican Party as well, but also by the tech giants and by the international censors.
00:04:43.000 It's always been, are we going to get a second opinion?
00:04:48.000 Well, Senator Ron Johnson, to his great credit, boldly, courageously, and quite honestly, unexpectedly for a lot of people, hosted this panel earlier this week.
00:05:00.000 It got almost no media coverage, and we are going to dedicate this entire hour to covering what was talked about in that panel, to talk about the political significance of this, to celebrate and platform Ron Johnson for doing this, because this is rare.
00:05:17.000 This is a guy who's in a battleground state running for reelection this November.
00:05:23.000 He's going to have well-funded Democrat challengers.
00:05:26.000 And what does Ron Johnson do?
00:05:28.000 Does he run into the arms of the Winter Olympics, Beijing, Wuhan Chamber of Commerce?
00:05:33.000 No, Ron Johnson instead hosts a panel with Dr. Malone, Dr. Pierre Corey, and many others saying, We Americans deserve a second opinion.
00:05:44.000 In fact, I saw Ron Johnson go on television on Tucker Carlson's program recently and said, hundreds of thousands of lives could have potentially been saved with early treatments.
00:05:54.000 And I say, this is a Republican Party that's ready to win.
00:05:58.000 Now, you might have not heard about this panel.
00:06:00.000 You might have just saw pictures or clips.
00:06:04.000 We believe you deserve a full review of what happened on the second opinion panel.
00:06:15.000 Let's start with Cut 58.
00:06:18.000 We have been telling people for quite some time, for anyone that will listen, and we get emails about it, freedom at charliekirk.com, about the inexplicable and horrific increase in miscarriages, cancer, and neurological disease.
00:06:34.000 This has been happening at a rapid rate.
00:06:36.000 No one wants to talk about it.
00:06:38.000 The Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson Johnson lobby on both sides of the aisle, Republican and Democrats, have largely kept their mouths shut.
00:06:46.000 Ron Johnson has been courageous enough to say, hey, what's going on here?
00:06:51.000 And a witness walked us through that.
00:06:53.000 Play Cut 58.
00:06:55.000 We have substantial data showing that we saw, for example, miscarriages increased by 300% over the five-year average, almost.
00:07:07.000 We saw almost 300% increase in cancer over the five-year average.
00:07:13.000 Cancer is not being talked about except for by Dr. Ryan Cole.
00:07:16.000 Thank you, doctor.
00:07:18.000 We saw this one's amazing, neurological.
00:07:22.000 So neurological issues which would affect our pilots.
00:07:26.000 Over a thousand percent increase.
00:07:29.000 A thousand percent increase.
00:07:31.000 And this correlates perfectly with the data we have been receiving, freedom at charliekirk.com, of people that are emailing us saying, Charlie, my father dropped dead, unexplained cancer, miscarriages, neurological disease.
00:07:46.000 Now, is it because of the vaccine?
00:07:48.000 We don't know.
00:07:50.000 We are not making that argument.
00:07:51.000 You might come to that conclusion.
00:07:53.000 It could be.
00:07:54.000 The vaccine adverse event reporting system surely suggests that.
00:07:59.000 But it's good that at least a singular senator cares about this.
00:08:02.000 By the way, Democrats out there that are keeping your mouth shut and don't care about this, your constituents are dying too.
00:08:09.000 Cut 59, Dr. Peter McCullough, compares U.S. hospitalization data to that around the world, and he makes the argument that vaccine has not decreased total mortality.
00:08:23.000 Now, before I play Cut 59, remember, the director of the CDC or the director of public health, they have to care about the entire health of society, not just transmission of a particular virus.
00:08:37.000 So if the death rate is going up like it went up 40% in Indiana, ages 18 to 64, 40%, that's a failure of the public health authorities.
00:08:47.000 Play Cut 59.
00:08:49.000 And this will come up.
00:08:50.000 The CDC in the last few days said there's five more papers showing the vaccines, even with Omicron, are associated with the reduction in hospitalization.
00:08:58.000 But it's only in U.S. hospitals, not in South Africa, not in Germany, not in Denmark, not in the U.K., and not in Israel.
00:09:06.000 Americans should be asking the question: why are the vaccines only working against hospitalization, but they don't work against binary occurrence of the respiratory illness or reduced spread, and they don't reduce mortality?
00:09:22.000 These are questions that we deserve answers to.
00:09:25.000 Now, coming up in a couple minutes, we have Senator Ron Johnson to walk us through what happened in that panel and also some more sound.
00:09:31.000 But also, we just received some breaking news that Supreme Court Justice Breyer is retiring at age 83.
00:09:40.000 This is smart on the Democrat side.
00:09:43.000 This is unexpectedly smart, actually.
00:09:46.000 With Roe versus Wade looming to be repealed over the summer, the election coming up in November, they are pulling a McConnell and trying to use the Supreme Court as an ability to motivate the Democrat base going into November.
00:10:03.000 I have to give them credit.
00:10:04.000 This is smart.
00:10:05.000 I think there's some opportunities for Republicans to capitalize on this.
00:10:08.000 This is some breaking news in real time.
00:10:12.000 How many years have I been telling you about Relief Factor?
00:10:14.000 Producer Andrew's right here doing an Iron Man thanks to Relief Factor.
00:10:17.000 And truth is, I know there are millions of people.
00:10:19.000 In fact, some say over 100 million people struggling with some kind of pain, maybe from exercise or just getting older.
00:10:24.000 That can do it, getting older, which is why I'm so impressed with the people at relieffactor.com.
00:10:29.000 They are on a mission.
00:10:30.000 You rarely see this kind of focus and commitment.
00:10:32.000 They recently shared with me that they are doubling down and want to literally double their total number of happy customers in the next year.
00:10:38.000 And I believe they'll do it.
00:10:39.000 So here's the deal.
00:10:40.000 If you're struggling with back pain, neck pain, shoulder, hip, or knee pain, even general muscle aches and pain, then I'm suggesting you order their three-week quick start, still discounted, only $19.95.

00:11:08.000 So Justice Breyer is retiring, opening a vacancy.
00:11:13.000 So let's talk about what that means.
00:11:14.000 So Mitch McConnell was wise back in February, January, February of 2016, when the wonderful, the amazing, the brilliant, the wise, the exceptional, and the one in a hundred-year talent of Justice Antonin Scalia passed away.
00:11:33.000 And McConnell kept the seat open.
00:11:35.000 You might remember there was a potential Merrick Garland, who is now the Attorney General of the United States, to go on the Supreme Court.
00:11:43.000 This is a huge controversy.
00:11:45.000 McConnell cited precedents, saying that in an election year, presidential election year, you let the people choose.
00:11:52.000 Now, the Democrats were really upset about that.
00:11:56.000 However, if you fast forward to the fall of 2018, when another vacancy came open on the U.S. Supreme Court, I can't remember why that vacancy came up.
00:12:07.000 Oh, Kennedy resigned.
00:12:08.000 That's right.
00:12:09.000 Kennedy retired in the summer of 2018.
00:12:13.000 And then, of course, Brett Kavanaugh came into focus.
00:12:15.000 Democrats got very, very animated about that, very upset about it, mostly because they said, why are you trying to confirm you said you don't do that?
00:12:24.000 It was McConnell playing Machiavellian politics.
00:12:26.000 And honestly, I totally supported it because about time we started to win and they started to lose.
00:12:30.000 And then fast forward to 2020, despite McConnell saying in 2016, we don't confirm justices in a presidential year.
00:12:39.000 I think he talked about like unified government.
00:12:41.000 It was some sort of nuance.
00:12:42.000 I always defended it nakedly partisan, being like, look, the country's falling apart.
00:12:47.000 We're in power.
00:12:48.000 You're not.
00:12:49.000 Thanks for playing.
00:12:50.000 You know, it's just kind of like whatever.
00:12:52.000 But McConnell is right, where he said, if you have unified government, it does set a precedent to fill the void.
00:12:57.000 When Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away in, I'll never forget, it was October.
00:13:02.000 It was early October.
00:13:04.000 And it was one of the great scenes ever where Trump's doing this rally, and Trump is walking in his kind of alpha male, you know, just kind of pace, and he's got the long jacket.
00:13:15.000 And he comes right up to the press corps.
00:13:17.000 And immediately they say, Ruth Bader Ginsburg died.
00:13:21.000 He says, she died?
00:13:23.000 And he then kind of just sits up straight and he goes, she was a wonderful person.
00:13:29.000 And it's like almost straight into it.
00:13:34.000 And that's when you knew he was sharp.
00:13:36.000 I'll tell you what, because that was one of them.
00:13:37.000 And Elton John's playing in the background.
00:13:40.000 You got all the kind of thematic, cinematic lighting.
00:13:42.000 That's one of the great moments in kind of Supreme Court presidential appointment history, truly, in the history of the country, to have that captured live on tape.
00:13:52.000 And I remember tweeting, I said, of course we know Trump's reaction as soon as Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away.
00:13:58.000 And because there was like all these conspiracy theorists being like, oh, Trump is celebrating it.
00:14:02.000 Like, no, actually, we have live footage of it as it happened.
00:14:06.000 Now, the Democrats actually are being smart here, and Republicans better wake up.
00:14:10.000 Democrats realized back in 2018, one of the reasons why Republicans were able to gain seats in the United States Senate back in 2018 by defeating Claire McCaskill and getting Braun elected in Indiana.
00:14:25.000 Who is the incumbent in Indiana?
00:14:26.000 It's irrelevant.
00:14:27.000 He's very forgettable.
00:14:28.000 One of the reasons we were able to win those races, now we lost in Montana with John Tester and lost with Joe Manchin in West Virginia, but we also won in Florida with Rick Scott, if I'm not mistaken, against incumbent Bill Nelson, which was a flip, which advanced the United States Senate to go to 53 seats, I think, in the United States Senate at the time.
00:14:48.000 One of the reasons was that Mitch McConnell made the United States Supreme Court a center issue in states like Indiana and Missouri, which brings out issues like abortion and guns.
00:14:57.000 Democrats are trying to replicate this.
00:14:59.000 They know that.
00:15:01.000 Now, whether it's illegal or not doesn't matter.
00:15:03.000 Justice Breyer obviously was meeting with the Democrats prior to this.
00:15:08.000 This wasn't just like some sort of epiphany, like, hey, January 26th, I'm retiring.
00:15:12.000 No, this was coordinated.
00:15:12.000 That's fine.
00:15:13.000 We expect that out of them.
00:15:14.000 I'm not trying to accuse them of anything.
00:15:15.000 This was, of course, coordinated.
00:15:17.000 Schumer and the entire Senate Democrats are now trying to use this as like, hey, Roe versus Wade about to be repealed.
00:15:24.000 Vote for Democrats this fall or else positions like Justice Breyer are going to remain vacant.
00:15:31.000 Now, I will say the timing of this is awfully suspicious.
00:15:35.000 I don't think the Democrats' timing is really smart.
00:15:37.000 If they really wanted to make an issue out of this, they would do this in like May.
00:15:42.000 He would step down right after the opinions were authored in June.
00:15:45.000 Now, Connor, my question is: is he not retiring till June?
00:15:48.000 I haven't read that yet.
00:15:49.000 My guess, I've even read, this is me doing it live.
00:15:52.000 If I was the Machiavellian kind of ends, justify the means, we're going to find our own morality, we're going to dismiss right and wrong as we know it, we're going to get what we want.
00:16:01.000 If I was that Democrat, I would have Justice Breyer step down on July 1st and trigger a summer Supreme Court fight post-Roe versus Wade getting repealed.
00:16:10.000 I don't know what that says.
00:16:11.000 Here's why I think that's going to happen.
00:16:13.000 Breyer's not going to step down in the next couple of weeks.
00:16:14.000 They're going to need his vote effective coming into the summer recess session.
00:16:18.000 Supreme Court goes into recess in July.
00:16:20.000 That's me speculating.
00:16:22.000 We're going to fact check if my gut, my instinct, and how well I know the left is.
00:16:27.000 Look, it's a new year and not much has changed.
00:16:29.000 We have inflation.
00:16:31.000 Houses are selling in a week.
00:16:32.000 Interest rates are at zero.
00:16:33.000 And our government is still borrowing money.
00:16:35.000 Well, actually, printing money.
00:16:36.000 $5 trillion in new money, to be exact.
00:16:39.000 What could go wrong?
00:16:40.000 Meanwhile, consumer confidence hits a 10-year low.
00:16:42.000 Inflation, 6.8%, even higher in certain places, 10%, 12%, or other places.
00:16:47.000 Something is not adding up.
00:16:48.000 So what can you do?
00:16:49.000 Well, you can play it safe.
00:16:50.000 Put some of your assets into precious metals will keep your money away from volatility in the markets and will let you sleep at night.
00:16:57.000 This month, Noble Gold is giving away a free one-tenth of an ounce solid gold American Eagle coin with any qualifying plan you start.
00:17:04.000 So talk to an expert at Noble Gold and they'll run through the options for keeping your money safe.
00:17:09.000 No pressure, no hassle, no call centers, just a chance to speak to someone who knows what they're talking about for once.

00:17:28.000 With us right now is a senator who deserves our praise and our thanks for his courage for what he has done to platform and to educate the public on really what's going on with the vaccines and treatments and all of the confusion around our public health authorities.
00:17:48.000 And that is Senator Ron Johnson.
00:17:49.000 Senator, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:17:52.000 Hello, Charlie.
00:17:52.000 Thanks for having me on.
00:17:54.000 I just want to say thank you again, Senator.
00:17:56.000 This panel you had this week was extraordinary.
00:17:59.000 It was courageous.
00:18:00.000 And seriously, from myself personally and our whole audience, it's so refreshing to see a senator really care about the war on early treatments and all of these other kind of issues together.
00:18:12.000 Talk about the panel.
00:18:13.000 Talk about what you learned and how did the media react?
00:18:16.000 Sure.
00:18:17.000 Well, first of all, it's the public's reaction that is most heartening.
00:18:21.000 We've had over a million views of the full five-hour event on our Rumble page, over a million.
00:18:28.000 So people are hungry for this second opinion for information.
00:18:32.000 What I hope they're seeing is, first of all, how eminently qualified these doctors, these academicians, these medical researchers are.
00:18:42.000 And you compare their qualifications versus the people in the Ivory Towers. 0.92
00:18:45.000 I call them the COVID gods, you know, the Fauci's of the world, the Walinskis, the Collinses, the Woodcocks, and the legacy media and the social media that is censoring this kind of information.
00:18:58.000 So these are eminently qualified people, but first and foremost, they are doctors that have had the courage and compassion to treat COVID patients.
00:19:07.000 Some of them have been infected because of their courage and compassion.
00:19:11.000 They know that early treatment works.
00:19:12.000 And that's what I've been advocating literally since March of 2020.
00:19:16.000 Early treatment, I believe, could have ended this pandemic well before we even had to consider the vaccines.
00:19:22.000 And by the way, I was a big supporter of Operation Warp Speed.
00:19:25.000 I hoped and prayed the vaccine would bring an end to the pandemic, but it didn't.
00:19:30.000 It's not as effective as we hoped it would be.
00:19:32.000 It's not as safe as we hoped it would be.
00:19:35.000 But the other thing I think anybody viewing that, and if you can't, if you don't have five hours, we've also edited down a 38-minute version of the highlights.
00:19:43.000 You get a pretty good sense of what I'm talking about.
00:19:46.000 But the American public should understand that our response to COVID could have been far more rational.
00:19:53.000 It didn't have to be so divisive.
00:19:56.000 And tragically, the coronavirus did not have to be as deadly as it's been.
00:20:03.000 I don't know how anybody can take a look at 890,000 deaths, the human toll of the economic devastation, what we've done to our children, the loss of learning, the psychological harms, and look at our response and call it a success.
00:20:21.000 I believe it's been a miserable failure, but it's been a miserable failure because we haven't utilized the internet to have a flourishing of ideas, letting doctors be doctors, practice medicine, exchange and share their experiences with other doctors, and hone the treatment techniques.
00:20:38.000 That's not been allowed.
00:20:40.000 These doctors have been vilified.
00:20:42.000 They've been censored.
00:20:43.000 They've been suppressed.
00:20:44.000 They've been terminated.
00:20:45.000 They've been sued.
00:20:47.000 That's been the reward for these doctors saving people's lives.
00:20:52.000 And let me just end on this note: you have to watch Paul Merrick.
00:20:57.000 He's the head of the frontline COVID-19 critical care specialist.
00:21:02.000 He had his hospital privileges revoked.
00:21:05.000 The hospital told him he could no longer use these cheap, generic, relative, you know, very safe-profile drugs to treat his patients.
00:21:14.000 So, in the end, when they took that, his ability to treat patients away, he still had seven COVID patients, and all he could do, because this is what the hospital forced him to do, was sit by and watch these seven patients die.
00:21:29.000 It is heartbreaking to watch that, but I have heard this time and time and time again: the heart-wrenching stories of families whose loved one is in the hospital.
00:21:40.000 They can't see them.
00:21:41.000 They beg the hospitals, try these things. 0.52
00:21:43.000 I mean, try them.
00:21:45.000 They are safe.
00:21:46.000 They've been used for decades, billions of doses.
00:21:49.000 Try them.
00:21:50.000 You're not giving my loved one treatment.
00:21:53.000 Just try these.
00:21:54.000 And the hospitals have said nope, even when sued, even when under court order, they've said no, and they've just watched people die.
00:22:04.000 We have too many stories that we've received on our show of that exactly: of loved ones that get trapped in the hospital and they don't give vitamin D booster shots.
00:22:13.000 They do not give azithromycin or ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine or any of the potential menu of treatments.
00:22:22.000 And so, Senator, you have been on the early treatment kind of campaign since the very beginning, as you mentioned.
00:22:30.000 Why do you think in the wealthiest society that humanity has ever known, one of the largest technology like we could ever imagine?
00:22:42.000 Why is it that we got this so wrong?
00:22:44.000 How are we supposed to process that?
00:22:46.000 That our public health officials almost, let's just say, intentionally rejected early treatments.
00:22:53.000 And like you said, we're nearing a million people dead.
00:22:56.000 Who knows how many of those could have been prevented?
00:22:59.000 Well, there's no innocent explanation.
00:23:02.000 I've got a couple, I guess, rational explanations.
00:23:05.000 One is the Fauci of the world were so singularly focused on vaccines, just exactly the way he was with the AIDS epidemic.
00:23:14.000 He denied Bactrom.
00:23:16.000 Tens of thousands of AIDS patients died because he wouldn't recommend something that would cure their pneumonia.
00:23:23.000 So he's done the exact same thing with COVID.
00:23:24.000 So if you want to get an immersive use on an experimental vaccine, it's very difficult to do that if you have an effective therapy.
00:23:32.000 Is that part of the reason?
00:23:34.000 Let's face it, the federal health agencies have been captured by big pharma.
00:23:39.000 I think they're doing their bidding as well.
00:23:41.000 So we invested, we spent billions of dollars on these vaccines, but the only drugs that the federal health care agencies have approved are expensive on-patent drugs brought to you by big pharma.
00:23:56.000 They have so tilted the playing field in favor of big pharma, novel, expensive drugs, because big pharma is the only one that can afford random controlled trials.
00:24:06.000 And that's, of course, what Fauci demands.
00:24:08.000 Even though we have literally dozens of studies that show the effectiveness of things like ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, plus hundreds of anecdotal stories that these things work, but it's all been ignored.
00:24:21.000 It's been suppressed.
00:24:23.000 It's been sabotaged.
00:24:24.000 Early treatment has been sabotaged.
00:24:26.000 But for example, the cheapest drug that's been recommended is now Paxlavid, about 500 bucks a course.
00:24:33.000 Molnupirivir, which causes the virus to mutate.
00:24:37.000 Geez, what could go wrong with that?
00:24:38.000 It's about $700.
00:24:40.000 Remdesivir, which inhibits viral replication, might be effective early in the treatment.
00:24:45.000 Once you get to the hospital, you're treating a different set of symptoms, a different disease.
00:24:50.000 That's over $3,000 a course.
00:24:53.000 Ivermectin, literally pennies a pill.
00:24:56.000 Same with hydroxychloroquine.
00:24:57.000 And by the way, the safety profile, you know, I put my chart together.
00:25:01.000 It's all data from the CDC, FDA.
00:25:04.000 It gets censored, but it shows over 26 years, ivermectin has about 15 deaths on average reported to the Fayer's system, the FDA's version.
00:25:14.000 Hydroxychloroquine, 69 deaths.
00:25:16.000 The standard seasonal flu vaccine, about 77 deaths reported through VAERS system, the vaccine adverse event reporting system.
00:25:23.000 We are over 22,000 deaths reported in association with the vaccines.
00:25:28.000 Now, I agree.
00:25:30.000 That doesn't prove causation, but 30% of those deaths, Charlie, have occurred on days zero, one, or two.
00:25:36.000 I'm alarmed by that.
00:25:38.000 I'm concerned about that.
00:25:39.000 I think it needs to be investigated.
00:25:41.000 But the Fauci of the world are just blowing it all off. 0.99
00:25:44.000 The Biden administration, there's nothing to see here.
00:25:47.000 And of course, we've heard story after story.
00:25:49.000 I mean, all these athletes dropping dead on the field, but we're supposed to ignore that.
00:25:55.000 Nothing happening here, nothing to see.
00:25:57.000 This is a travesty.
00:25:58.000 This is a scandal.
00:26:00.000 It's totally a scandal.
00:26:02.000 And I just can't say thank you enough, Senator, because you're not, there's not a lot of people saying this, honestly, in Congress.
00:26:09.000 I mean, I hate to politicize this.
00:26:11.000 I remember when Democrats used to hate big pharma.
00:26:14.000 You do too.
00:26:14.000 You ran against someone successfully, I think, twice.
00:26:17.000 Russ Feingold used to make a big deal out of that.
00:26:19.000 Back in the day, you might remember that, oh, the pharmaceutical companies.
00:26:23.000 I grew up in Northern Illinois, not far from Wisconsin.
00:26:26.000 You know, the type of liberal I'm talking about where they just kind of hate all big institutions.
00:26:32.000 Democrats' constituents are dying too.
00:26:34.000 Why is it that there is just silence amongst your colleagues and some Republican colleagues as well when it comes to this issue?
00:26:44.000 Well, because they've seen how I've been treated in the media.
00:26:47.000 You know, I've withstood a year's worth of just relentless, almost daily attacks, you know, calling me an anti-vaxxer, which I am not.
00:26:54.000 You know, again, as a big supporter of Operation War Speed, I'm the champion of right to try, allowing people the freedom to choose and to use a drug that's not fully FDA approved.
00:27:04.000 Well, that's what these vaccines are.
00:27:06.000 So I'm not an anti-vaxxer.
00:27:08.000 I've got every vaccine except for this one because I had COVID.
00:27:11.000 And now, of course, it's being proven that natural immunity is effective and it's enduring.
00:27:16.000 But no, I mean, my colleagues look at me and they look at me as roadkill.
00:27:19.000 I mean, they don't want to have that same type of treatment.
00:27:22.000 So I understand that.
00:27:24.000 I mean, let's face it, I've been accused of being a racist.
00:27:27.000 And then I've been accused of being an anti-vaxxer.
00:27:29.000 I mean, there can't be two worse pejoratives to be used against somebody.
00:27:35.000 And so they see I'm relentlessly accused of being both.
00:27:39.000 And they don't want to be termed an anti-vaxxer.
00:27:42.000 So they're willing to, I guess, look away, not even really explore this, just hope that the vaccine is effective and as safe as we all hoped and prayed it would be.
00:27:52.000 Let's face it, they voted for the funding of it.
00:27:54.000 They've been recommending it.
00:27:56.000 That's one of our biggest problems, Charlie, of getting the truth out is nobody wants to admit they're wrong.
00:28:01.000 The general public doesn't want to admit they were wrong in putting their faith in Fauci and these federal health agencies, doctors who have recommended vaccines, they don't want to admit that maybe these vaccines have killed people or paralyzed them or had a serious adverse event.
00:28:16.000 Fauci's of the world, the people in the health agencies, they will never admit they're wrong.
00:28:21.000 And tell you what, even most importantly is the media who's been complicit in all this, the big tech giants, social media that have censored early treatment.
00:28:30.000 The body counts now approaching 900,000 people.
00:28:33.000 If it is proven that these cheap, generic, widely available drugs are effective, understand the consequences, how severe they will be to those people that have sabotaged the use.
00:28:46.000 So they not only they can't afford to be proven wrong, Charlie, they have the power.
00:28:53.000 They are the media.
00:28:55.000 They are the social media.
00:28:56.000 They are the big tech giants.
00:28:58.000 They have the power to make it very difficult to ever prove they're wrong.
00:29:01.000 So they'll keep shifting their story.
00:29:04.000 They'll start claiming, oh, we never said that.
00:29:07.000 Remember how it shifted?
00:29:09.000 The vaccines were pretty well sold that if you take a vaccine, 95% of you will not get COVID.
00:29:14.000 I know they didn't exactly say, but they didn't exactly say that, but that's the impression they left, or they left with us all.
00:29:21.000 Now that it's proven that the vaccines aren't preventing infection, they're not preventing transmission.
00:29:27.000 Now their story is, well, oh, no, all we ever said is it reduces severity of the disease.
00:29:34.000 So they'll shift their story to make sure they're never proven wrong.
00:29:37.000 They will never accept responsibility.
00:29:39.000 It's going to be very difficult to hold them accountable.
00:29:42.000 Well, I just, I agree.
00:29:44.000 And I want our audience to support you.
00:29:46.000 And I don't like push politicians' websites very often, honestly, but you're not a politician.
00:29:51.000 You're a business guy that got into this for the right reasons.
00:29:53.000 It's Ron Johnson for Senate.com.
00:29:55.000 Do I have the right website?
00:29:56.000 Is that right?
00:29:58.000 That's correct.
00:29:58.000 And Charlie, I'm going to need that help.
00:30:01.000 Before I even decided to run, and my inclination was not to do this.
00:30:05.000 Okay.
00:30:06.000 I really wanted to serve that second term and go home quietly to a private life.
00:30:10.000 Okay.
00:30:11.000 But I can't stop fighting for freedom.
00:30:13.000 But before I even decided, they had already spent $9 million.
00:30:18.000 Democrats spent $9 million.
00:30:19.000 And then, of course, their communication apparatus, which is the legacy media, and the social media relentlessly attacked me for the full year.
00:30:26.000 The week I announced, another $2 million announced of ad spending against me.
00:30:30.000 So these campaigns are way too long.
00:30:32.000 They're grotesquely expensive.
00:30:34.000 I hate that, but I'm going to need the support at Ron Johnson for Senate.com.
00:30:38.000 It's rare.
00:30:40.000 In fact, there's really no one except maybe Rand Paul that has actually talked about this like Ron Johnson.
00:30:45.000 And Wisconsin's really important, everybody.
00:30:46.000 So help out, Senator Johnson.
00:30:50.000 Look, a lot of people are worried right now, and you should be.
00:30:53.000 There's inflation.
00:30:54.000 There's crime everywhere.
00:30:56.000 And people are talking about a major economic collapse.
00:30:58.000 I'm worried about it.
00:30:59.000 I'm not saying it's going to happen for sure, but I'm definitely worried about it.
00:31:02.000 Are you prepared for the worst?
00:31:03.000 What are you going to do if there's an EMP?
00:31:05.000 Do you know what an EMP is?
00:31:06.000 Google it.
00:31:07.000 Electromagnetic pulse.
00:31:09.000 No electricity.
00:31:10.000 Stuck at home.
00:31:10.000 You are nine meals away from anarchy.
00:31:13.000 Nine meals.
00:31:14.000 And guess what?
00:31:15.000 After six meals, people start to get really anxious.
00:31:17.000 They might start coming to your home looking for food.
00:31:21.000 Are you prepared?
00:31:22.000 Do you have the emergency food you can rely on no matter what happens or when?
00:31:25.000 Look, I am an unapologetic prepper.
00:31:29.000 People can make fun of it.
00:31:30.000 They scoff at it.
00:31:31.000 My family will be well-fed when things fall apart.
00:31:35.000 I urge you right now to get the four-week emergency food kit from MyPatriot Supply.
00:31:39.000 They're the nation's largest emergency food company.
00:31:42.000 They've served millions of your fellow Americans over the last 15 years.
00:31:45.000 And they have 48,000 four-star and five-star reviews from satisfied customers.
00:31:49.000 I got their product stashed away next to my ammunition and my gold.
00:31:54.000 Right now, save $50 on their four-week emergency food kit, which gives you breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks, and snacks totaling over 2,000 calories a day.
00:32:02.000 The food stays fresh for up to 25 years in proper storage.
00:32:05.000 It'll be there when you need it.
00:32:06.000 You know, people laugh at preppers.
00:32:08.000 Have you read 20th Century History?
00:32:09.000 Do you know what happened in Cambodia, the Soviet Union, Italy, Germany, China?
00:32:13.000 Yeah, things fall apart.
00:32:15.000 Yes, that is a book that many seventh graders read, but also things do fall apart.
00:32:19.000 Second law of thermodynamics, the inevitable law of decay.
00:32:22.000 Are you prepared?
00:32:23.000 Go to preparewithkirk.com.
00:32:24.000 That's preparewithkirk.com.
00:32:27.000 Take out your phone, go to preparewithkirk.com right now and save $50 per kit per person.
00:32:32.000 Act now, and your order will ship quickly and arrive discreetly at your door in unmarked boxes.
00:32:37.000 That's preparewithkirk.com, preparewithkirk.com.
00:32:44.000 Senator, I want to ask you, there's a lot of things I want to get into, but I want to ask you kind of where do you think if the Republicans take back the Senate, what can be done from a committee standpoint to actually start to formalize some of these questions that you've been asking?
00:32:59.000 Subpoenas getting to the bottom of all of this.
00:33:02.000 Well, I'm continuing to investigate right now.
00:33:05.000 I'm the ranking member on the Permanent Subcommittee Investigations.
00:33:08.000 When we request all kinds of information, the agencies, the executive branch really thumbs its nose at congressional oversight.
00:33:18.000 We don't have enforcement power.
00:33:19.000 But when the FOIA requests produced the 4,000-plus pages of Anthony Fauci's emails, heavily redacted, Congress is not subject to those redactions.
00:33:29.000 So we immediately sent a request.
00:33:31.000 And I'll say the chairman of our subcommittee, Senator Osoff, has been cooperative.
00:33:36.000 He's put pressure on HHS to allow us to see under those redactions, but they're not being transparent.
00:33:42.000 They're not handing us over 4,000 pages unredacted.
00:33:44.000 They're allowing us to go into a room, see the emails unredacted in camera.
00:33:53.000 We can't take copies.
00:33:54.000 We can just take notes.
00:33:55.000 So that's been a laborious process.
00:33:58.000 Obviously, if we get the majority, I'll have subpoena power and we'll be able to increase the heat.
00:34:03.000 But in the end, Charlie, what is required for congressional oversight?
00:34:07.000 Because we don't have enforcement power.
00:34:10.000 I mean, even if we issue subpoenas, it's hard to enforce the subpoenas.
00:34:13.000 I subpoenaed the FBI.
00:34:14.000 They slow-walked it.
00:34:16.000 I got a mere fraction of what I was looking for, and obviously I didn't get the good stuff.
00:34:21.000 It requires public pressure.
00:34:23.000 And that's why I'm very transparent in my oversight, in my investigations.
00:34:27.000 I try and get the public interested.
00:34:29.000 I try and get the news media interested to highlight really the outrage that is occurring within our federal bureaucracy, how they feel they're completely unaccountable to the American public, which means they're completely unaccountable to congressional oversight.
00:34:43.000 We are the representatives of the people.
00:34:45.000 Amen.
00:34:45.000 So we have 83-year-old Justice Breyer is retiring, kind of setting up a summer Supreme Court fight.
00:34:52.000 It seems as if they're trying to motivate their base.
00:34:54.000 What's your take on this?
00:34:56.000 Well, let me first say I hope it's not a health-related issue.
00:34:59.000 I have respect for Justice Breyer.
00:35:02.000 He oftentimes has some pretty rational thoughts on things.
00:35:05.000 So I appreciate that fact.
00:35:07.000 Obviously, he's part of the liberal block that votes consistently with the liberals, but not 100% of the time.
00:35:14.000 So, my guess, it's his decision.
00:35:18.000 Might be because he succumbed to pressure, looking ahead, understanding that Democrats may not be able to retain a majority in the United States Senate.
00:35:27.000 So it might be difficult to confirm under Republican control a more radically left justice, which is what I fear will happen with Joe Biden.
00:35:38.000 I mean, his appointments, his appointees, his nominees for almost every office have come from the radical left.
00:35:46.000 And unfortunately, I'm afraid that's who President Biden will replace Justice Breyer, who, again, is reliably left, but I wouldn't call him a radical leftist.
00:35:55.000 Yeah, I agree.
00:35:57.000 And I think that there's going to be a Supreme Court fight.
00:35:59.000 We'll see kind of where that kind of goes from there.
00:36:02.000 And Joe Biden, unfortunately, has put many radicals one after the other.
00:36:08.000 Okay, we have one minute remaining.
00:36:09.000 Just kind of reinforce the point.
00:36:11.000 Wisconsin, Battleground State, coming into November.
00:36:15.000 You don't like these elections any more than we do.
00:36:18.000 But I want to just commend you.
00:36:19.000 You very easily could have stepped down and kind of put a vacuum and maybe would have made it a 50-50 seat.
00:36:24.000 You're well loved in Wisconsin.
00:36:26.000 How could people help you at ronjohnsonforsenate.com?
00:36:29.000 Well, they can sign on and they can donate and they can tell their friends, their family, and neighbors about it as well and understand how crucial this seat is.
00:36:37.000 In the end, there are all kinds of issues.
00:36:40.000 Some of them divide us as conservatives.
00:36:42.000 We can't let them divide us.
00:36:43.000 We need to be unified because, Charlie, this is a fight for freedom.
00:36:47.000 This has been my rallying cry.
00:36:48.000 It's a fight for freedom.
00:36:50.000 It's nobody else's fight.
00:36:52.000 It's our fight.
00:36:52.000 It's a fight we absolutely have to win.
00:36:54.000 That's why I'm running for the seat again.
00:36:56.000 As much as I'd like to just walk away from it, I can't.
00:36:59.000 None of us can.
00:37:00.000 I'm going to need your help.

00:37:04.000 Ron Johnson for Senate.com.
00:37:05.000 Senator, I just, we've known each other for years.
00:37:07.000 I remember you spoke at a turning point USA event back in 2013 at UW-Madison, and you've always been so good to us.
00:37:13.000 But your courage, your clarity, and your willingness to take on the pharmaceutical industrial complex, it really is something that is rare and is worthy of note.
00:37:24.000 And we're behind you 100%, truly.
00:37:25.000 So thank you for that.
