00:02:07.000 James, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:02:09.000 James O'Keeffe, everybody.
00:02:10.000 Charlie, great to be with you.
00:02:12.000 James, you have a new book out.
00:02:13.000 I want to plug it, and you deserve the praise of everyone buying it.
00:02:20.000 Talk about your book, and then let's get into some of the news.
00:02:22.000 Well, the book's called American Muckraker, and it's kind of a how-to guide on how to do journalism in Clown World.
00:02:28.000 We tell the stories of muckrakers over the 20th century. 1.00
00:02:31.000 We talk about privacy, ethics, deception, undercover work, even struggle, sacrifice, suffering.
00:02:37.000 It really, it took me five years to write this book.
00:02:39.000 It's got a lot of footnotes from a lot of academic journals, a lot of review articles.
00:02:44.000 But what's most fascinating about this book is the stories of the whistleblowers inside the government, inside tech that have come to us.
00:02:50.000 And I think it's really, it was a fun book to write.
00:02:54.000 It comes out Monday, January 25th on pre-sale.
00:02:57.000 It's called American Muckraker.
00:02:59.000 So please pick up a copy.
00:03:00.000 All proceeds go to Project Veritas.
00:03:02.000 Everyone, check it out, American Muckraker.
00:03:05.000 So, James, I want to ask you about the story that broke yesterday.
00:03:09.000 You guys have a tendency to break news very late in the evening.
00:03:13.000 I'm sure there is a science to it, or there's a reason to it.
00:03:16.000 And it says, DOJ documents obtained by Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton, great guy, confirms existence of communications between the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Pfizer about your organization, Project Veritas.
00:03:29.000 Tell us about this, James.
00:03:30.000 That's right.
00:03:31.000 Tom Fitton at Judicial Watch, who's a friend of mine, he issued a FOIA request into the Department of Justice for all communications between the New York Times and the DOJ and Pfizer Pharmaceutical and DOJ.
00:03:45.000 And shockingly, a document came back from the Department of Justice FBI indicating they do indeed have communications between the FBI and Pfizer regarding communications regarding Project Veritas and myself.
00:04:00.000 So we released these documents last night.
00:04:02.000 I made a video about it.
00:04:04.000 And the question is, why on earth is Pfizer Pharmaceutical just talking to the FBI about journalists or journalism, Charlie?
00:04:13.000 And further, you know, the CEO of Pfizer had made a statement back in November, I think it was November 9th, where he said that he has been talking to the FBI about disinformation and dark, dark groups.
00:04:25.000 He's clearly referring to groups like Project Veritas, even though we're not dark.
00:04:29.000 We're the opposite of dark. 0.57
00:04:31.000 And also, Charlie, remember, we did two stories about Pfizer.
00:04:35.000 One whistleblower within Pfizer, Melissa McAtee, and emails showing that they were hiding information.
00:04:41.000 Those were the vice president of Pfizer's words, not mine.
00:04:43.000 And also a scientist within Pfizer saying antibodies are stronger than their own vaccine.
00:04:48.000 So I reported on this as journalists do or are supposed to do.
00:04:52.000 And now we come to find out that the FBI is talking to Pfizer about us.
00:04:58.000 I'm not shocked because if you look at the pattern of behavior in the Mexican drug cartel, the Sinola cartel, they infiltrate the Mexican equivalent of the drug enforcement agency all the time.
00:05:09.000 They even sometimes, in a horrifying fashion, infiltrate the American Drug Enforcement Agency.
00:05:15.000 It's no different.
00:05:16.000 Pfizer's a cartel.
00:05:18.000 They are trafficking, I would say, things that aren't necessary for the American public.
00:05:25.000 It's the same thing.
00:05:26.000 You have a narco-controlled state. 0.79
00:05:28.000 We have a pharma-controlled state.
00:05:30.000 And so if they want to go after people they don't like, they pick up the phone and they go to the FBI.
00:05:35.000 Now, James, I want to be careful connecting dots here.
00:05:38.000 I can be a little more generous in this regard than you can.
00:05:41.000 I said, though, as soon as you went after Pfizer, I turned to my team and I said, oh, they're going to strike back.
00:05:48.000 And then lo and behold, a couple weeks later, you get a knock on the door.
00:05:52.000 We had this episode where you and I talked about this.
00:05:55.000 Do you think that they're connected?
00:05:57.000 Do you think they're correlated?
00:05:58.000 You exposing Pfizer and the fact that they used aborted fetal cells in the development of the vaccine and then lied about it.
00:06:06.000 And then, if I'm not mistaken on the timeline, a couple weeks later, maybe a month later, all of a sudden your apartment gets raided looking for a diary.
00:06:13.000 Well, let me answer that.
00:06:15.000 That's a good question.
00:06:16.000 And I don't like to opine or speculate.
00:06:20.000 I don't like to editorialize on things.
00:06:22.000 I only like to say the facts.
00:06:24.000 And I believe I have a faith in people that if they're given the truth, that they can make the best conclusion here.
00:06:30.000 But the first chapter of this book is called Suffering.
00:06:33.000 That might surprise you.
00:06:34.000 Why the hell would you, the first chapter be about suffering and not, I don't know, the history of journalism?
00:06:38.000 That's chapter two.
00:06:40.000 Because when you're over the target, you get flack.
00:06:43.000 And I think it's going to create a constitutional crisis in this country if they start indicting journalists.
00:06:47.000 I haven't been charged with any crimes.
00:06:49.000 But if they start indicting journalists for receiving information from sources, that sort of activity is protected under the First Amendment.
00:06:56.000 And why do we have a First Amendment in this country?
00:06:58.000 People tend to forget the First Amendment is first for a reason.
00:07:01.000 That's because information, going back to the era of the Roman Republic or the Roman times, and into the American founding, in order to exercise our rights and duties in an intelligent fashion, as Thomas Jefferson established, you know, you have to have information they don't want you to have.
00:07:19.000 And what's happening right now in this revelation last evening, the revelation of FBI agents showing up my home, intimidating me and taking my phones because a source transmitted me Ashley Biden's diary, which, by the way, I did not print.
00:07:34.000 So what happens when that's challenged, it creates a constitutional crisis, the likes of which we've never seen before.
00:07:40.000 And yes, other people have been raided by the FBI, but not American journalists.
00:07:44.000 This is a first.
00:07:45.000 This is a bridge that we've never crossed before, as I said to you last time in Phoenix.
00:07:50.000 So, what do I think?
00:07:51.000 I think the powers that be, Charlie, tend to push too far.
00:07:55.000 They always overplay their hand, particularly the left. 0.99
00:07:58.000 They overplay their hand, and it ends up biting them in the butt. 0.99
00:08:02.000 You can't raid journalists' homes and get away with that. 0.99
00:08:05.000 That's not right.
00:08:06.000 The Supreme Court is established in Bart Nikki V. Bapper in 2001.
00:08:09.000 Journalists has a right to publish a document, even if it's stolen, so long as the journalists do not participate in the theft of that document.
00:08:16.000 And with these Pfizer videos, what's remarkable about them is that these were actual employees inside Pfizer.
00:08:21.000 Vanessa Gelman, the vice president of Pfizer, or the senior director of Pfizer, rather, she was in the email saying, We don't want people to know this.
00:08:29.000 And the whole idea, the whole idea of journalism is to publish what people that they don't want us to know.
00:08:34.000 So I think there's obviously from the CEO of Pfizer saying he's talking to the FBI about, I think it was dark money groups or something, something like that.
00:08:42.000 The real dark money is the money that Pharmaceutical gives to the television stations on the commercial breaks brought to you by Pfizer.
00:08:49.000 I don't have that problem.
00:08:50.000 You don't have that problem.
00:08:52.000 So they project onto us what they are.
00:08:55.000 Yeah, this hour of CNN is brought to you by Pfizer.
00:08:59.000 And when you see the cutup of that, it's extraordinary.
00:09:03.000 So, James, I want to ask you, you also exposed this story.
00:09:07.000 I think last week, Dr. Robert Malone and Naomi Wolf say that this is bigger than the Pentagon papers.
00:09:14.000 So it's potentially civilizational altering stuff.
00:09:17.000 The story has multiple parts: one with DARPA, and then one with potential suppression of early treatments.
00:09:24.000 There's a mention of the Trusted Truth Initiative.
00:09:27.000 James, can you kind of update our audience on this story?
00:09:30.000 So these were documents that, again, were transmitted to us from a source.
00:09:34.000 I wonder if the FBI will raid me again.
00:09:37.000 You're starting to starting a sense of pattern here.
00:09:38.000 It's absurd.
00:09:40.000 These were, I won't tell you who the source is, but we received documents from inside the Department of Defense, specifically DARPA, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency in Arlington, Virginia, which is a division of the Department of Defense.
00:09:54.000 And these documents were authored by a major in the United States Marine Corps who was a fellow at DARPA.
00:10:01.000 So effectively, they're sort of Pentagon papers that we've broken last week.
00:10:05.000 And the documents state that Eco Health Alliance, this group, approached DARPA in the Department of Defense for gain of function research on COVID-bat-borne coronaviruses in March of 2018.
00:10:21.000 The Defense Department rejected this proposal on the grounds it was too risky.
00:10:26.000 It was too dangerous.
00:10:26.000 So our Department of Defense thought, no, no, that we can't proceed with this research for obvious reasons.
00:10:32.000 It was too, it could lead to, I don't know, a pandemic or something.
00:10:36.000 And then the doc, and then the Marine Corps major writes in this document, but Anthony Fauci, as head of NAID, proceeded with this research.
00:10:47.000 So the Marine Corps statements, obviously a credible source here inside DARPA, would seem to indicate that Dr. Fauci lied under oath.
00:10:54.000 Now, Charlie, we break the documents, and the very next morning, Fauci is being questioned by Senator Marshall.
00:11:01.000 And Fauci does address Project Veritas, mentions us by name, authenticates the documents, but calls into question the credibility of this report and the Marine Corps guy who wrote it.
00:11:13.000 And I believe Fauci is playing semantical games because obviously there were two separate proposals here.
00:11:19.000 Fauci didn't see the precise identical proposal that EcoHealth Alliance approached DARPA with.
00:11:24.000 It was a different one.
00:11:25.000 But fascinating stuff.
00:11:27.000 And I think that there'll be more whistleblowers and documents coming out as a result of this expose, Charlie.
00:11:32.000 What is the Trusted Truth Initiative?
00:11:34.000 Do you have any idea what he meant by that?
00:11:37.000 I'm not sure.
00:11:38.000 But what I will say, what I will say is this, the Marine Corps major who we actually approached him, he was not the source of the documents.
00:11:47.000 There was another source.
00:11:48.000 But they actually issued a statement, which we don't know if that was authorized, if he was authorized to give it.
00:11:53.000 I assume he was.
00:11:55.000 And what this Marine Corps major told us was that there was a lot of other good people in the government, people on the inside.
00:12:01.000 There's a chapter in this book called Whistleblowing.
00:12:03.000 Obviously, we depend upon people sort of to violate their NDAs and reach out to us, but we have more people inside the government that we're going to be working with.
00:12:14.000 And stay tuned.
00:12:15.000 You're doing wonderful work.
00:12:16.000 And you have my respect.
00:12:18.000 And you have our support here on the show.
