00:01:18.260 the program dr ran paul how are you sir very good glenn thanks for having me you bet uh yesterday
00:01:25.820 uh during the senate let me just play the uh clip of uh ran paul with rachel levine
00:01:32.420 and her confirmation hearing listen genital mutilation has been nearly universally condemned
00:01:38.600 genital mutilation has been condemned by the who the united nations children's fund the united
00:01:44.960 nations population fund according to the who genital mutilation is recognized internationally as a
00:01:51.800 violation of human rights genital mutilation is considered particularly egregious because as the
00:01:57.760 who notes it is nearly always carried out on minors and is a violation of the rights of children
00:02:03.260 most genital mutilation is not typically performed by force but as who notes that by
00:02:09.680 social convention social norm the social pressure to conform to do what others do and have been doing
00:02:16.980 as well as the need to be accepted socially and the fear of being rejected by the community
00:02:20.600 american culture is now normalizing the idea that minors can be given hormones to prevent their
00:02:27.360 biological development of their secondary sexual characteristics dr levine you have supported both
00:02:33.680 allowing minors to be given hormone blockers to prevent them from going through puberty as well as
00:02:39.040 surgical destruction of a minor's genitalia like surgical mutilation hormonal interruption of puberty
00:02:46.040 can permanently alter and prevent secondary sexual characteristics the american college of
00:02:51.340 pediatricians reports that 80 to 95 percent of pre-pubertal children with gender dysphoria will
00:02:57.880 experience resolution by late adolescence if not exposed to medical intervention and social affirmation
00:03:05.680 this statement of yours ran is responsible for headlines like this ran paul tried to derail
00:03:12.580 rachel levine's historic confirmation hearing with transphobic misinformation
00:03:17.240 well you know the interesting thing is none of it was directed towards her personally or who she is it was
00:03:25.740 directed towards the question of whether children can consent and this is an intellectual question it's not a
00:03:32.100 you know inflammatory question it's a question of serious consequence can a young girl of 12 years
00:03:39.200 old or 15 years old can they consent to an abortion can they consent to have their ears pierced can they 0.72
00:03:44.760 consent to have surgery to change their their sex i mean these are important questions and most people
00:03:50.960 would argue that children can't really make an informed consent you know we have laws against you know a man
00:03:57.060 having sex with a 12 year old even if the 12 year old says yes because we don't think a 12 year old is capable 0.99
00:04:02.460 of consenting they just aren't old enough to make the difference but see it's even worse than this
00:04:07.640 in one of the clinics in england one of these gender dysphoria clinics in england
00:04:11.980 10 percent of the kids that are coming in are between the age of three and 10
00:04:15.780 my goodness people talking to a three-year-old and trying to
00:04:19.960 tell them it's fine that they really are of a different sex see most of this stuff would be you know
00:04:25.160 three-year-olds think they're aliens sometimes i mean they have no conception of any of the
00:04:30.100 the importance of any of these uh incredible questions but to let a three-year-old participate
00:04:35.840 in that or a five-year-old or an eight-year-old and then you've got these loony-tuned left-wing
00:04:40.380 parents encouraging this and reaffirming it and this is what the american pediatricians uh have said
00:04:46.540 is that if you don't medically do anything and you don't reaffirm it you just kind of let the kid grow
00:04:51.620 up most people grow out of this and understand that it's a it's an aberration not something that
00:04:56.720 they would really desire is she going to be confirmed overwhelmingly she's in a special
00:05:03.300 category now so the democrats will vote for i suspect a couple of republicans who want to
00:05:08.700 somehow you know send some kind of signal we'll vote for her too but it's alarming and it isn't about
00:05:15.000 who she is it's about the idea to my mind that a minor could make the decision and see a lot of
00:05:21.700 this stuff is irreversible you give a boy girls hormones in the ages of 14 to 16 they don't come 1.00
00:05:27.700 back you give a girl boys hormones you know once a girl is given enough testosterone to grow a beard 0.98
00:05:34.140 with their face doesn't go back if they change their mind so here now to me here it's crazy to me
00:05:41.440 it is a little bit about who she is and it nothing about her sexuality or her trans um uh transition
00:05:51.040 to a woman it has everything uh to do with her mother she took her mother as she was the secretary 1.00
00:05:59.940 of health for uh pennsylvania she took her mother out of uh nursing home as soon as covid restrictions
00:06:07.900 without warning anybody else hey you know maybe you should do that uh she also during covid
00:06:14.340 had a report out from her on a official uh health department uh stationary about how the covid uh scare
00:06:26.580 should affect your orgies and she put rules out our kids can't go to school but her priority was if 0.99
00:06:36.780 you're going to go to a place where you're going to have sex with several people here's what you have 1.00
00:06:42.220 to do i mean the world is a clown show an absolute clown show i think this is why she wouldn't answer
00:06:51.260 my question she refused to answer the question and came up with some empty problem but she didn't 1.00
00:06:55.880 want to answer it because she truly is an extremist she is so far out there that most of america would 1.00
00:07:02.840 recoil in horror if they knew what she was for but you're right about the practicality of it other
00:07:08.460 people asked that question that was why i didn't uh dwell on the idea of what she did bring her mom
00:07:13.400 out everybody else to die absolutely that's disqualifying and that's most pertinent to whether
00:07:18.960 she can do the job but there is this big issue of normalizing this idea that a nine-year-old uh can 0.76
00:07:25.360 want to change her sex and you start giving them hormones and if the parents say no that the child 0.98
00:07:30.760 gets to decide at nine and that's just wrong and children just aren't capable of making life
00:07:36.440 changing decisions and there is a permanence to this at some point when they start giving them cross
00:07:41.800 hormones meaning that you give a boy girl hormones or a girl boy hormones when you start doing this 0.85
00:07:47.800 and they do it between the ages of 14 and 16 as minors they're irreversible changes
00:07:52.760 do you become sort of this um in between you're neither boy nor girl but you can't go back a book
00:08:01.580 uh that came out three years ago that basically says the same stuff quoting medical science uh science
00:08:08.520 and scientists um warning about how detrimental this can be on children was pulled from amazon it's been
00:08:17.620 out for three years it was pulled for hate speech by amazon um what sunday i believe uh this also goes
00:08:27.620 right into the equality act which if you don't buy into this stuff if you don't call people by the right
00:08:34.500 pronoun if uh you don't affirm the new sexual norms in general uh gender ideology you're in trouble
00:08:43.860 and this is this will affect small businesses this will affect charities this will affect churches
00:08:51.260 and it it appears to be written in a way where there is no recourse you're not going to a court
00:08:58.060 and having this reversed on you i don't think i've ever seen anything this bad uh that has a chance of passing
00:09:07.860 it's insane where it's insane where we are i mentioned the story of a young woman in england by
00:09:13.400 the name of kira bell and she just read on the internet she was a confused young woman she says
00:09:18.500 she was confused she had psychological problems at the time she didn't know who she was she was trying
00:09:22.920 to discover her identity and she uh read on the internet about transsexual thought it was cool she
00:09:28.280 went in after a couple of appointments they were very encouraging unto her there was no other side
00:09:33.700 presented she ended up taking cross hormones and then having a double mastectomy now she regrets it
00:09:39.980 she's worried about whether she she knows she's a woman now and she would like to have children
00:09:44.340 um she's fearful that she will be infertile and uh she ended up having a you know a body transforming 0.99
00:09:51.760 double mastectomy and she just regrets it and uh they've changed some of the rules in england on this now
00:09:58.380 but this dr levine has said that most of the time she's not for surgery before 18 but she is for
00:10:04.900 street kids so she's for for poor kids who don't have parents who you can imagine if you're a homeless
00:10:11.780 15 year old there's a lot going on that either your parents have been rotten parents or you have
00:10:16.860 psychological problems or you might be schizophrenic or you might have other problems for the reason why
00:10:21.120 you're homeless but to take those people and prey upon them and say they don't really need consent
00:10:26.280 and we're going to get the state to sort of approve their their hormones i mean this is really
00:10:31.260 grotesque that they would take a poor child and uh and you know put their their infuse their beliefs
00:10:38.260 and their extreme views on these on these children is just obscene um ran i know you have to run i i want
00:10:44.580 to ask you um i i'm not sure if you're aware of what's going on with the world economic forum and the great
00:10:51.020 reset but you're already seeing it happen in companies there is this merger if you will
00:10:57.220 between government uh ngos and uh and corporations these public private partnerships and all based on
00:11:07.420 uh uh what are called esgs uh or uh yeah uh esg environmental social and governmental mandates
00:11:15.720 these big companies are are already adopting these things like the equality act and and critical race
00:11:23.900 theory and they're jamming it down people's throats and it's an end run around the constitution
00:11:28.700 let me let me ask you as a libertarian we complain a lot as conservatives about big tech and what they're
00:11:36.120 doing but i believe and i know you believe private business should be able to do what they want to do it's
00:11:42.980 right in the free market but when these companies are aligned so closely with a party uh and the
00:11:52.460 government specifically and they're doing an end run around the constitution what should we do
00:11:59.380 don't use them don't buy their stuff you know look coca-cola you know both my wife and i are
00:12:05.900 incredibly upset with them right now they came out with this woke thing about you need to admit that
00:12:11.440 you're white and you're a terrible person you need to admit that you're aggressive that you're 0.93
00:12:15.240 opinionated and you will apologize for being white and that's the most grotesque sort of 0.82
00:12:21.000 racist thing i've ever heard that is the world economic forum's esgs yeah and then you had bill
00:12:28.380 gates out there promoting that uh we need to have critical race theory in math and there was a great
00:12:33.940 professor from vanderbilt african-american woman who said you know that's the most racist thing i've ever 1.00
00:12:38.520 heard that bill gates thinks my kids can't learn because the color of their skin and that we're
00:12:43.060 going to dumb down math and that showing your work or having too much emphasis on the correct answer
00:12:48.820 is is somehow racist you know that that whole concept is racist but that's the world we live in
00:12:55.100 you got black lives matter extorting big corporations who are now paying for black lives matter people to 0.79
00:13:01.180 go riot in different cities it's obscene i i know a guy works for one of the big drug companies he says
00:13:06.500 oh yeah they're there if i give a hundred dollars my company will match three hundred dollars to black 0.61
00:13:11.240 lives matter and i've seen a big the people were in the george washington hotel in the willard hotel
00:13:17.300 five hundred dollars a night with plane tickets all paid for by big corporations through black lives 0.99
00:13:22.780 matter to get people to riot in dc the people almost killed my wife and i were paid for by big
00:13:29.720 corporations big u.s corporations paid their way there so are is are there enough republicans that
00:13:36.300 are are at least feeling some sort of uh uh responsibility to stand up for the constitution
00:13:45.360 and uh you know and do something i guess the danger is is that you have to have some
00:13:54.300 chutzpah you got to have some guts some courage to stand up because it is a culture out there where
00:14:00.460 even by me everybody's saying i made transphobic comments yesterday all i did was ask was whether a
00:14:06.040 minor can consent to this kind of dramatic surgery nothing i ever said was hateful i said nothing
00:14:11.020 hateful about these people i said nothing hateful about adults who choose to do this but the culture
00:14:16.420 is out there that is so strong that so many people in office are afraid to speak out and it's getting
00:14:21.660 worse so there's a handful of us that will speak out in the senate there's a handful in the house
00:14:25.760 and uh we just have to grow our ranks but we have to resist or the it's just going to roll over
00:14:31.160 us and we're going to live in this terrible cancel culture world where nobody speaks out and everybody's
00:14:36.440 afraid to say anything silence in the face of evil is evil itself uh dietrich bonhoeffer um ran thank you
00:14:44.980 for being one of those people who will stand up uh we will help you in any way we possibly can and
00:14:51.560 that goes for anybody left or right that will stand against this this nightmare that is happening
00:14:57.600 thank you so much rand paul this is the best of the glenbeck program
00:15:04.320 nicole maliotakis is the congressperson uh brand new in the uh in the house from new york she joins us
00:15:23.760 now to give us the details on the 1.9 trillion dollar covet 19 relief package
00:15:31.480 nicole how are you great glenn great great to be with you i appreciate you having me on to expose
00:15:37.760 what's actually happening in this bill yeah so i read i read a lot of stuff uh the media is is spinning
00:15:45.500 this of course as this is all going to help those states that are really in need and all those people
00:15:50.680 that are really in need i don't read it that way can you can you fill us in with the facts on what
00:15:57.040 is in this bill sure well first of all i think what people need to understand is that there's a trillion
00:16:03.400 dollars left over from the previous package so congress didn't take the time to really identify
00:16:08.520 where the need is where we could potentially be shifting resources and ensuring that we came out
00:16:13.920 with something that was tailored and specific to the needs of struggling americans and small businesses
00:16:18.820 wait wait wait wait wait wait wait i want to make sure i understand this there's a trillion dollars
00:16:24.540 in you know some fictitious bank account that they've already approved that hasn't been sent out
00:16:32.320 that is correct so uh and that's education spending to reopen schools some of it is ppp
00:16:39.260 money for small businesses oh my um so so so then the interesting thing enough with the education
00:16:45.060 funding is that the cdc said it would cost 25 billion to reopen schools safely across america
00:16:51.160 yet they put 64 billion dollars in the previous package with the majority of it unspent and as you
00:16:58.100 know many schools including those in my city uh remain closed and on top of that they want to put
00:17:03.780 another 130 billion dollars in this package with 95 percent of that funding not being able to be spent
00:17:11.000 until after the after this year so so wait the estimate is that to reopen schools it would cost 25
00:17:17.760 billion but between the unspent money in the last bill and the new bill they are sending our schools
00:17:26.080 200 billion dollars that that is correct and so what i say is only under a mismanaged government or when
00:17:34.760 when democrats are in control do things end up costing eight times as much as originally estimated
00:17:39.820 so so what exactly is what do they say how what is the response on 200 million dollars for schools
00:17:49.300 well there's been no response as a matter of fact uh they keep insisting that this is for uh
00:17:56.160 reopening america's schools we know that's not the case number one because uh the estimates were
00:18:01.400 an eighth of the of what they're putting into this fund the second thing is that um the money is
00:18:07.200 restricted to be used for over a year so it's not emergency funding unless they anticipate that
00:18:11.180 they're not going to reopen schools for a whole other year um so to give you an example in new
00:18:16.680 york state my state uh governor cuomo did receive four billion dollars for school yet many of our schools
00:18:22.400 remain closed throughout the state i mean we just reopened middle schools in new york city and as you
00:18:27.740 know the school's chancellor just resigned about an hour ago uh and it's because i believe really
00:18:32.860 because he hasn't been able to successfully roll out the opening of these schools and like the
00:18:38.460 catholic schools have in our city yeah may i just recommend uh for anybody who is struggling to figure
00:18:45.620 out how to open schools the first thing you have to do is um teachers you're to report back to class
00:18:53.220 on monday if not you're fired that would be the first thing to do to open up schools uh maybe it's just me
00:19:00.380 um you also in this bill uh are are uh we are we are finding now uh that there is a 86 billion dollars
00:19:13.580 uh of our tax dollars to rescue union pension funds
00:19:19.300 yeah i mean look that that's in there there's a lot in there which is why we call it the pelosi payoff
00:19:27.060 bill not the actual covid relief bill so it's not just uh you know the bailout for pensions but you
00:19:33.680 actually have a 3.5 billion dollars going overseas internationally for the global uh health fund for
00:19:41.140 aids tuberculosis and malaria you know good cause but the thing is why is the amer why are the american 0.64
00:19:47.040 people picking up 88 of the tab for this international organization's expenditures because that's what 3.5
00:19:55.300 billion dollars equates to and this is at a time when even our diplomats overseas haven't even had
00:20:00.480 access to the vaccine and the other thing to show you how bloated this package is less than one percent
00:20:06.540 goes to vaccine production and distribution and you ask any democrat or republican local leader or national
00:20:12.860 leader and they will tell you that the vaccine development distribution is the number one thing to
00:20:18.020 getting us back on track so the fact that it's only equating for less than one percent and i had to use
00:20:23.920 siri by the way to figure that out because uh you know calculators and go up to one trillion to 1.9
00:20:29.640 trillion dollars but uh when you calculate it using uh siri or alexa you'll find out that point uh
00:20:35.300 something like point uh seven percent of the entire package is going to what is said to be the number one
00:20:41.560 priority that that is how bloated the this bill is nicole is there i mean you're new to congress 0.81
00:20:49.120 so let me ask you are you is it worse than you thought it would be or better or about what you
00:20:57.100 expected well unfortunately it's you know it's a very polarizing and uh my first month wasn't great
00:21:02.720 it was a very polarizing uh first month i'm you know the fact that we lost the senate was not helpful
00:21:08.480 because there's no balance anymore uh they changed the rules in this procedure so that way they don't
00:21:13.580 even need uh any republican votes they they changed it from the 60 vote requirement uh they changed it
00:21:18.980 to 51 votes using uh what's called a budget reconciliation uh and so you know they've
00:21:24.820 basically shut us out of this process and now we know why because they wanted to jam all this pork
00:21:30.520 into this bill uh and and and as a new yorker i can say look of course i want my city and state to
00:21:35.840 have money but i also want accountability and i don't trust this mayor or this governor uh i believe
00:21:40.980 that they'll take the federal funds and they still increase the taxes that are driving new yorkers out
00:21:46.520 uh they're already talking about imposing higher income taxes and stock transfer tax mayor de blasio
00:21:52.620 increases the property tax levy every single year they just increase tolls on our roadways um and so
00:21:59.460 they're taking the money and they're still going to take from the people and what's interesting about
00:22:03.260 the way the democrats set up this formula is that they changed it based on population to now based on
00:22:09.280 unemployment rate so governors like governor cuomo and gavin newsom are actually being rewarded
00:22:14.400 for shutting down their economies and driving people out of work so it's very disheartening to
00:22:19.260 see how this is playing out but i was a member of the new york state legislature also in the minority
00:22:23.860 and so i'm kind of used to the these types of games being played um but i'm hopeful that we'll be
00:22:29.040 able to actually work together in a bipartisan fashion on something like the president said he wanted
00:22:34.360 to do even though he hasn't tried yet so i uh i was just talking to bill o'reilly and he said what
00:22:39.640 was happening in the new york house uh and assembly was that um the democrats are going after cuomo
00:22:48.760 not because of any of the scandals but because he's not radical enough do you believe that's true or is
00:22:55.720 is is is the are the democrats in new york waking up to cuomo no i think the democrats in new york
00:23:04.100 are getting a lot of pressure from their constituents who are demanding answers and families who are
00:23:09.560 demanding justice uh the governor made a bad mistake by implementing this uh order that mandated the
00:23:17.500 nursing homes accept covet positive patients then he underreported it uh to the public the number of
00:23:23.340 deaths that were as a result of that uh and then he stonewalled the legislature uh when they tried to
00:23:30.060 get answers uh and then his own chief of staff admitted that they were covering up the whole thing
00:23:35.800 simply because they didn't want the department of justice to gain access to this information uh then he
00:23:41.620 bullied one of the democrat assembly members who stood up to him because his uncle died in a nursing
00:23:47.420 home so i think they're getting very tired of the governor's antics uh thousands of new yorkers
00:23:53.160 have actually joined me in adding their name at at enoughcuomo.com to send a message that they want
00:23:59.340 the governor to resign uh and and this has only been exacerbated now by the fact that a young woman 0.98
00:24:05.300 who is part of his administration has come forward with sexual harassment claims um so i think the
00:24:10.280 democrats really are starting to get tired of the governor uh you know he's been governor for three
00:24:14.780 years three terms he does use uh bullying tactics to get what he wants uh he is vindictive uh and i think
00:24:21.600 that he's out doing his welcome both with uh the other democrats in the state but also with the
00:24:26.340 people which is why his poll numbers have just been dropped so so much over the last month so with him
00:24:31.280 and uh de blasio are and i i would love to know this in california as well but you you are from new
00:24:38.440 york so you might have a good handle on new york um with cuomo and de blasio the wreckage that has been
00:24:45.860 done uh with these policies especially because of covid um are are people just wanting to get rid of
00:24:54.040 them or are they tying them also to the policies that are so damaging well i they are they are tying
00:25:03.280 them to their policies because they're the ones who put forward these arbitrary restrictions uh these
00:25:09.420 mandated shutdowns that have hurt our local economy that have led to thousands of people losing their
00:25:14.640 jobs um that have put small businesses people's livelihoods uh out and um you know schools the
00:25:21.360 parents teachers and and students that i speak to want to go back to school and that is very upsetting
00:25:27.100 children don't have school athletics anymore which is another big issue uh and there's not a lot of
00:25:32.160 a lot of these restrictions that they put in place lacked common sense like you can go to the gym but
00:25:37.360 you can't go to the yoga studio you know you can you can you can ice skate and and you know you can go
00:25:42.540 to an ice skating pavilion and skate but you can't have hockey leagues you know it just doesn't make
00:25:46.460 any sense uh and so there's a lot of frustration and new york city we're being treated differently
00:25:51.320 than the rest of the state the rest of the state is at 50 capacity for indoor dining uh new york city
00:25:56.660 was shut down for so long and finally we got 25 i kept pushing we got more now with 35 inching up
00:26:03.400 toward 50 but why are we being treated differently than the rest of the state so people are upset
00:26:08.380 about this they see that the governor and the mayor had way too much power and you know the
00:26:14.140 governor's power needs to be rescinded i've said that uh you know repeatedly i've been saying that
00:26:18.820 for months and the democrats keep dragging their feet but they finally have to go and do it and
00:26:23.140 take back their power as a equal branch of government and and work to just reopen this economy and get
00:26:30.080 children back to school and get people back to work i have to tell you i think uh between uh what
00:26:35.840 companies are have discovered with zoom and and virtual work etc etc and the absolute devastation
00:26:43.840 that has been done to manhattan and and your district in southern uh brooklyn and staten island
00:26:49.280 i don't and i i know you won't agree with this i'm sure um but i don't see new york city ever
00:26:56.280 recovering to the the uh the city that it once was at least for a decade um
00:27:03.660 how how how are you how is that area going to pay for all of the services that it needs
00:27:12.200 and have promised when everybody's moving away companies are shutting down you're absolutely um
00:27:22.180 right about the policies that have been put in place that are driving people out i do have hope
00:27:27.900 that new york city uh will recover that uh we do have a mayor's race and i'm hoping that somebody
00:27:32.800 uh who will be uh you know really really try to roll back some of this stuff that the mayor did i mean
00:27:39.620 look whether it be defunding the police which was a completely ridiculous idea has led to crime skyrocketing
00:27:46.420 uh we we have a lot of mismanagement a lot of mismanagement of our tax dollars which is why
00:27:52.060 i'm so concerned with billions more coming to new york um but i do believe that um it's up to the
00:27:57.700 people the people have to be vocal they have to complain you know i ran for mayor of new york city
00:28:01.260 in 2017 um i think we'd be in a better position had i won that election um unfortunately this mayor
00:28:07.080 spends more and more money and the problems get worse and worse so uh that is the you know definition
00:28:11.900 of mismanagement um i think there's a lot of things we could be doing differently to tackle
00:28:15.520 our homeless crisis to make sure our streets are safer to make sure that our trains are running
00:28:19.760 to make sure that our children are getting a good education in person um you know these are things
00:28:25.420 that i think unfortunately government has just strayed from the basics of what they're supposed
00:28:29.920 to be doing right people expect you to keep them safe give their kids a good education make sure
00:28:33.760 traffic is flowing the trains are running on time uh making sure that there's an environment where jobs
00:28:38.860 can grow and unfortunately they've strayed into all sorts of areas they got to get back to the basics
00:28:43.300 and that's what i'm going to be pushing for and speaking out for both here in washington and
00:28:47.940 when i'm back home in new york city thank you so much uh congresswoman nicole malia takas uh from
