The Glenn Beck Program - Best of The Program ｜ Guests： Sen. Tom Cotton & Daniel Horowitz ｜ 6⧸23⧸21

00:00:00.000 Hey, today's a great podcast.

00:00:01.680 There's a great television show coming up tonight, 9 p.m. on Blaze TV.

00:00:05.320 We're talking about the Meat Mafia. 0.85

00:00:07.060 I explain this and how the government and corporations are working together to control our food.

00:00:14.520 Also, the control of medicine and what's happening to housing and housing prices.

00:00:20.120 Oh, also the collapse of the dollar and why Bitcoin is being talked down by the federal government.

00:00:26.780 All this and more on today's podcast.

00:00:30.000 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:00:44.140 This is the Glenn Beck program.

00:00:46.620 Senator Tom Cotton is joining us now.

00:00:49.520 Republican from Arkansas, a guy who was way ahead on COVID-19 and the lab leaks.

00:00:58.040 Also, I wanted to talk to him today about the military whistleblowers that are happening.

00:01:04.180 It is amazing questioning of a Navy admiral.

00:01:08.420 But first, let's start with the Senate blocking the election power grab bill, S-1.

00:01:14.980 Welcome to the program, Senator Cotton.

00:01:16.980 How are you?

00:01:18.280 Hey, Glenn.

00:01:18.920 I'm good.

00:01:19.420 I hope you and your listeners are well.

00:01:20.720 It's good to be back on your program.

00:01:21.920 So tell me about what happened yesterday and what it means.

00:01:28.640 Well, Chuck Schumer brought to the floor the Democrats radical election bill that would federalize all elections and it would mandate taxpayer funding for political campaigns and put Democratic operatives in charge of drawing our congressional district lines around the country.

00:01:46.220 And we blocked the motion to proceed to debate on that.

00:01:49.580 Now, the Democrats got up on their high horse.

00:01:51.660 They saddled it and wrote it hard.

00:01:53.300 They said, well, we just want to have a debate.

00:01:54.700 You won't even have that.

00:01:55.720 Well, they forget two things, Glenn.

00:01:57.440 First off, they did that hundreds of times in the Trump era.

00:02:02.080 And second, we don't need to have a debate about federalizing our elections.

00:02:06.660 If you ask me, what's the Republican plan to federalize our elections, I will tell you, we don't have one because we don't think we should run elections out of Washington.

00:02:16.840 We think our states and our counties do a pretty good job of managing these elections, and we shouldn't grab power away from them for the purpose of dictating a one-size-fits-all election system to the entire country, which, by the way, is designed to elect Democrats in perpetuity.

00:02:34.200 So what do you think about Joe Manchin?

00:02:36.000 Did he fold in the end, or was this just a political game when he saw it's not going to pass anyway, I might as well vote for it?

00:02:44.300 Well, sir, I don't support Senator Manchin's proposed amendments to the bill.

00:02:48.360 Again, I have a disagreement in principle.

00:02:51.460 I certainly think that he would have improved the bill.

00:02:53.400 I just didn't.

00:02:54.380 This is a fundamental gap between the Democrats and the Republicans.

00:02:58.940 Right.

00:02:59.380 One is saying, one is talking about the Constitution, and the other is not.

00:03:06.000 I mean, clearly unconstitutional.

00:03:09.800 The Constitution reposes in our states the chief authority for regulating our elections.

00:03:16.780 This is a very hotly debated and carefully considered provision of the Constitution at the Constitutional Convention.

00:03:24.180 And the federal government does have some residual authority.

00:03:26.900 But that was considered to be in extreme cases, Glenn.

00:03:30.260 In cases, for instance, when a state just refused to hold elections, period, because, say, they wanted to deny the Congress a quorum to act in the early days of the republic.

00:03:40.560 It was not because certain states are, say, requiring photo ID to vote, which, by the way, has the support of more than three quarters of the American people, even if Democratic politicians don't like it.

00:03:51.040 So let me switch topics here.

00:03:54.620 Let me go to the whistleblowers in the military.

00:03:59.040 What's happening in our military is very disturbing.

00:04:02.840 We are labeling people that voted for Donald Trump, let's say, as extremists, and we're shoving CRT down their throat. 0.78

00:04:12.920 Tell me about the whistleblowers that you have heard from and how prevalent is this in our military.

00:04:20.440 So Congressman Crenshaw and I have created a website to encourage people to contact us in the military or veterans or families of service members.

00:04:31.300 If they were being exposed to critical race theory training sessions, this kind of deeply anti-American notion that there are certain races who are inherently oppressive or privileged and certain races that are inherently victimized or oppressed,

00:04:48.040 that we should judge people by the color of their skin as opposed to their character and their performance in the line of duty.

00:04:54.600 It's one thing, Glenn, for woke corporations or left-wing college campuses to truck in this kind of nonsense.

00:05:03.660 It's another thing for our military, the most important institution in our society, because they are literally what keeps us free and what keeps us independent and preserves our Constitution.

00:05:13.400 We have received hundreds and hundreds of complaints from service members, whether it's frontline training in their duty units or the service academies or professional military schools like the War College.

00:05:28.960 I've raised it now twice in committee hearings with Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin yesterday with the Chief of Naval Operations, Mike Gilday, that this needs to stop.

00:05:37.580 We should not be trying to indoctrinate our young troopers and young officers in this kind of nonsense.

00:05:45.960 I got to say, Glenn, it's not just critical race theory either.

00:05:48.480 You know, we've had reports of mid-career officers at those professional military schools having to take extended classes on climate change.

00:05:57.820 I mean, what does climate change have to do with being a major in the Marine Corps or being a battalion commander in the Army?

00:06:03.960 They need to be studying tactics and operational excellence and military history and biography to learn their craft and their trade.

00:06:13.060 You know what I bet?

00:06:13.740 I bet China is not teaching its mid-career officers about climate change as opposed to how to defeat the United States.

00:06:21.360 OK, so let me ask you, because we have all of this stuff happening at an administrative level.

00:06:27.220 This is Woodrow Wilson's dream.

00:06:29.100 Biden is putting in a lot of these policies without going through Congress, because, quite honestly, Congress gave the power years ago to the administrative branch.

00:06:42.340 So how do we stop this?

00:06:45.100 Because it's everywhere.

00:06:47.020 So, Glenn, there's a few things that I'm doing.

00:06:49.400 So, first, the simple fact of shining a bright light on it, like we're doing here, like I've done in these hearings, I think will create some tension inside the Department of Defense of people who don't want this and say that, you know, look, Senator Cotton just questioned Secretary Austin.

00:07:04.140 Secretary Austin said we shouldn't be doing this, and you should report it to your chain of command.

00:07:08.240 So I think it's very helpful that this get exposed.

00:07:11.060 Second, this summer, when we write the annual defense bill, I will be proposing amendments that prohibit exactly this kind of training session.

00:07:19.880 And third, you know, we confirm thousands, probably actually tens of thousands of officer promotions every year on the Senate.

00:07:28.380 Those are largely done just by a voice vote.

00:07:30.680 Obviously, you know, we're not going to get into who's being promoted for second lieutenant to first lieutenant.

00:07:34.560 However, there are only a few dozen, a few hundred general officer promotions every year.

00:07:41.140 And if the military doesn't knock this off, maybe it's time that we start digging a little more deeply into what those generals have been doing or tolerating or even promoting in their demands.

00:07:52.240 So, I mean, I don't want to agree 100 percent, but I will if I have to.

00:07:56.660 Yeah.

00:07:56.780 Okay.

00:07:58.460 One last topic here, as we're looking at the state of our union right now, how are we ever going to get the truth on COVID and China with their lab leak theory?

00:08:18.840 They, I mean, they control almost everything.

00:08:23.620 The United States, clearly, the administration is beholden to China.

00:08:29.640 Are we ever going to find out?

00:08:31.660 Because I think Fauci said yesterday we may never know.

00:08:35.460 So, Glenn, I think there's a good chance we may never have hard, conclusive proof, you know, the kind of direct evidence or smoking gun, in part because China has probably destroyed most of those evidence and disappeared or even killed persons who had firsthand knowledge.

00:08:50.140 Now, it's possible that we might have a defector or whistleblower that brings evidence out of China and shares it with us.

00:08:59.000 It's always possible.

00:09:00.560 But I think most Americans can use their common sense, Glenn.

00:09:03.580 They can just look at all of the other evidence, the circumstantial evidence, which all points to those labs. 0.99

00:09:08.360 Literally not a single piece of evidence points to that stupid food market. 0.99

00:09:12.080 I mean, give me a break. 0.99

00:09:13.460 Look, this virus didn't originate up in some remote mountain village next to a cave full of bats.

00:09:18.500 It came out of a city larger than New York.

00:09:21.480 Coincidentally, just a few blocks away from those labs that research exactly these kind of viruses, a lab that is run by a woman whose nickname is literally the Bat Lady. 1.00

00:09:32.420 I mean, I think most Americans can look at those facts and say China is responsible for this virus.

00:09:38.420 But if we're not going to punish China because we may not have the evidence, shouldn't people here be punished for the whitewashing and the out-and-out lies? 0.92

00:09:56.440 I mean, we know now about hydroxychloroquine and what the media and what scientists, even scientists now, we now know we're part of a cover-up and threatening violence on people that we're speaking up for things like hydroxychloroquine.

00:10:17.540 Is anyone going to pay a price?

00:10:20.980 So, well, first off, Glenn, to get back to China, I think it should pay a price, and we should make that price very steep. 1.00

00:10:27.200 We don't need a Perry Mason moment to hold China accountable for what happened in Wuhan and what they unleashed on the world. 0.99

00:10:35.160 And then second, there's a lot of people that have a lot of answering to do.

00:10:37.720 I mean, look, Tony Fauci has basically become a democratic activist in a white lab coat.

00:10:43.100 He, for many months, prevaricated, dissembled, misdirected, evaded on what his agency had done.

00:10:50.260 It had funded indirectly through an American nonprofit, gain-of-function research in those Wuhan labs, which was prohibited by the Obama administration at the time.

00:11:00.440 Yet, Tony Fauci, like so many of these bureaucrats, think they know better, think that they don't have to respond to elected officials, and it's time for him to go.

00:11:08.380 And if he won't resign, then Joe Biden should fire him.

00:11:10.220 Which won't happen.

00:11:15.740 Well, I seem to notice that he's not out there nearly as much.

00:11:18.660 I think even the Biden administration is beginning to recognize that he's become a liability and that the American people have lost faith in him.

00:11:24.900 Are you sensing at all in the Senate that there is a healthy respect at all that is starting to be gained of the American people as they are starting to stand up and speak out about things like critical race and some of these extremists?

00:11:48.040 Is there any awakening that you're seeing on the other side that makes you believe that, geez, we might have been reaching too far here?

00:11:56.440 Well, not so much from the Democrats, Glenn.

00:11:59.580 I mean, I think Republicans have long held the American people and their good common-sense opinions and respect.

00:12:07.360 I think some Democrats may be waking up and growing fearful of that opinion and what it means for the Democrats in the midterm elections next year.

00:12:14.700 But I also think a lot of them are still trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the American people for a little bit longer.

00:12:21.940 The last question I have is on this new task force that the White House is announcing and getting into bed with high tech to try to weed out these domestic terrorists.

00:12:36.860 Things that every Democrat pushed against when you were even talking about the extremists overseas, they're now spying on us, the American people.

00:12:48.800 They've got a new whistleblower line where you can turn in your neighbors or your own family if you think that they are extremists.

00:12:57.500 You concerned about this?

00:12:58.980 And is anybody on the Hill talking about it?

00:13:00.760 Well, yeah, I mean, we shouldn't have big tech engaged in this kind of censorship or surveillance, especially surveillance for the Biden administration.

00:13:09.600 I mean, their opinion of a domestic extremist is probably any of the 74 million people that voted for Donald Trump or another Republican candidate for office last year.

00:13:18.620 But I think we've seen the consequences over the last year of these big tech companies thinking they know better, just like Tony Fauci, and they're going to suppress information.

00:13:27.560 And it turns out the information they suppress is often correct.

00:13:30.200 What's best, and this is something that good old-fashioned liberals once believed, you know, back in the 1950s and 1960s, is to have a robust and vigorous debate.

00:13:40.600 And if you think someone is spreading lies or has weak arguments, the way you prevail is not to try to silence them using the power of the state or these giant monopoly companies, but present better evidence and make more compelling arguments.

00:13:54.620 Senator Tom Cotton, thank you so much.

00:13:56.920 Thanks for your service, sir.

00:13:58.260 And it's always great to have you on.

00:13:59.860 Thanks, Tom.

00:14:00.440 Thanks, Glenn.

00:14:00.980 Good to be back on with you.

00:14:01.820 All right.

00:14:02.420 So summer has arrived, and with it comes all of those amazing summer holidays.

00:14:07.340 And with things finally starting to return to normal in this country, I'll bet you're looking to spend those holidays with friends and family,

00:14:14.220 cooking up some good food in the backyard while the kids go running and screaming around the yard.

00:14:19.840 Let me take your grilling game and knock it up one level. 0.57

00:14:22.560 If you haven't already, I want you to go online and check out Rectech.

00:14:27.640 It grills, it smokes, it even bakes, and it does it with smart grill technology, which means that it maintains perfect temperature the whole time.

00:14:36.260 And that means you don't burn anything like I have time or two or every time until I got a Rectech.

00:14:43.220 It's sleek.

00:14:43.880 It's sturdy.

00:14:44.480 The thing is built out of solid stainless steel.

00:14:47.240 It's a tank.

00:14:48.580 It'll be the last grill you buy.

00:14:50.380 A, B, compare the Rectech to the competition.

00:14:53.480 You'll see what I'm talking about.

00:14:55.000 R-E-C-T-E-Q dot com. 1.00

00:14:57.200 That's Rectech dot com.

00:14:59.620 R-E-C-T-E-Q dot com. 1.00

00:15:05.240 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:15:16.360 I don't know what's happening in Loudoun County, but it is absolutely out of control.

00:15:21.400 This government is out of control.

00:15:23.740 I'm talking about the county government under the direction of the school board.

00:15:29.940 Yesterday, they were more than two people stood up and came for the public comment section during the meeting,

00:15:39.640 and it was focused on a new school district policy regarding restroom accommodations and the use of pronouns for transgendered students.

00:15:48.560 Well, a lot of people wanted to speak their mind.

00:15:50.620 The school board didn't want to hear them.

00:15:52.160 They claimed that this whole assembly was just out of order, and they arrested a couple of people.

00:15:58.340 By the way, if you're arrested, do not resist arrest.

00:16:02.080 Do not give the media footage of you fighting against police officers.

00:16:09.180 You've got to remember Martin Luther King.

00:16:12.380 We have to be happy warriors, and if they're going to arrest you, fine.

00:16:17.440 Arrest me all you want.

00:16:18.760 I am not going to behave the way your people behave.

00:16:23.920 I'm speaking out.

00:16:25.100 I have the Constitution on my side, and as long as I continue to do the right thing, you know what?

00:16:32.540 I'm happy with the consequences.

00:16:34.700 I'm not going to be silenced in the face of evil.

00:16:37.800 I will stand.

00:16:39.220 I will speak.

00:16:41.380 And one of the guys who spoke, now this is up in Bucks County in Pennsylvania, one guy who spoke to their school board, which was trying to silence people, again, not having open hearings, he addressed the school board.

00:16:57.120 Listen to what he said.

00:16:59.560 Now, you snowflakes apparently have a bigger problem with public comment.

00:17:04.020 It seems to me that you think you can supersede the United States Constitution.

00:17:09.260 Well, I've got news for you, school board president Benito Mussolini.

00:17:20.620 Your power does not supersede that of the U.S. Constitution and the First Amendment rights of the citizens of this great nation.

00:17:28.480 Let's be very, very clear who has the power.

00:17:31.520 It is not government policy.

00:17:33.040 Do not warn me or do not interrupt my time.

00:17:36.700 If you make personal insults like that again, do not interrupt my time.

00:17:41.620 This is my comment, not your comment.

00:17:43.720 I'm quoting to you now from the United States Supreme Court 1964 case, New York Times v. Sullivan.

00:17:50.420 This is constitutional case law in this country, and I'm quoting you from the U.S. Supreme Court.

00:17:55.840 The judges wrote that this nation is founded on the, quote, profound national commitment to the principle that debate on public issues shall be uninhibited, robust, and wide open,

00:18:08.460 and that it may well include vehement, caustic, and sometimes unpleasantly sharp attacks on government and public officials.

00:18:16.720 That's constitutional case law in this nation.

00:18:19.300 I don't have to be nice to you.

00:18:20.940 Nobody behind me has to be nice to you.

00:18:22.600 If you don't like living in the United States of America, then you can all move to Russia, Cuba, or China.

00:18:28.560 This is the First Amendment.

00:18:32.220 And I will caution you, I will caution you, solicitor.

00:18:36.220 There is a video camera to my left.

00:18:38.820 If you edit this tape, then you're going to have a big legal problem on your hands,

00:18:43.080 because my right to critique your fascism, which is what this is, is constitutionally protected.

00:18:49.460 There are emails, public record emails, in which the Director of Equity is lobbying and advocating for public comment to be censored in this school district.

00:18:59.900 And you know what?

00:19:01.460 You know what?

00:19:03.420 Lobbying for it, advocating for it.

00:19:05.900 We've got the school board president saying she'll do better at hitting the moot button in blatant violation of the Constitution. 1.00

00:19:12.020 For her lobbying and her advocacy of unconstitutional censorship, I want you, the school board, to terminate the employment of Dr. Theresa Gibson with immediate effect.

00:19:22.580 I mean, is that guy great or what?

00:19:28.220 And the reason why he is, is he came out with the Supreme Court ruling.

00:19:33.020 He was talking about the Constitution.

00:19:36.260 He knew it.

00:19:37.700 He was prepared.

00:19:39.580 Yes, he was forceful.

00:19:41.700 But I think that parents have had enough.

00:19:46.440 When you're coming after our children, you've crossed the line.

00:19:51.840 And all of this, this fascistic stuff of trying to, for instance, in Loudoun County, where they are, the county attorney is part of the problem.

00:20:06.240 When the county attorney is on a Facebook page encouraging people to dox the parents and the children of those who are against CRT, you've got a problem.

00:20:20.540 That is not America.

00:20:22.360 That's not the way we work.

00:20:25.120 And if these school boards and local officials, if they want people to be kind and proper and not call them Benito Mussolini, then they should stop acting like it.

00:20:40.860 You don't have the right to shut people down.

00:20:46.180 You don't have the right to do it behind our backs in Texas.

00:20:51.520 That's why two people did lose their job.

00:20:54.540 In fact, two people went to jail because they had memos going back and forth saying, look, the public is never going to understand this.

00:21:04.220 Let's just do this.

00:21:05.360 We can get through the public meetings.

00:21:07.700 Let's just do this quietly.

00:21:09.340 Well, that's against the law, and they went to jail, and so should anyone else.

00:21:15.980 You may not be able to have the power to affect things nationally, you think, but I'm telling you, you have the power to change things locally, and that is the most important thing you can possibly do.

00:21:31.720 Right now, the media is on this kick of saying that, no, no, no, no, we don't, CRT isn't even being taught.

00:21:41.460 It's just these conspiracy people, just all these people, these right-wing fanatics, these fascists on the right.

00:21:51.820 I want you to listen to a 1943 pamphlet that was written for the communists in America on how to deal with dissent.

00:22:06.060 See if this rings a bell.

00:22:08.360 In 1943, the following directive was issued from party headquarters to all communists in the United States.

00:22:15.660 It read,

00:22:45.660 This is happening in two ways.

00:22:52.020 They are calling us fascists, white supremacists, etc., etc., and it is becoming a reality in the mind of the everyday person that is not involved.

00:23:06.320 They're seeing us now.

00:23:07.820 The government is saying there's a threat.

00:23:10.460 There's a threat. 0.98

00:23:11.240 It's white supremacists. 0.96

00:23:12.520 At the same time, they're saying these are extremists, right-wing zealots, a.k.a. white supremacists that are against critical race theory. 0.65

00:23:23.840 And they're saying it over and over and over again, and it is becoming reality for a lot of people.

00:23:29.780 That is why you must never, ever be seen being out of control.

00:23:37.640 I don't think that guy was out of control because he had his facts in hand, and he knew exactly what he wanted to say, and he said it.

00:23:47.420 He said it forcefully, but he said it.

00:23:49.860 But we can't ever look out of control because that's what they're doing.

00:23:56.940 They're smearing us, just like that 1943 pamphlet said.

00:24:01.320 That's what they're doing to us.

00:24:04.280 At the same time, they're using that same tactic in reverse.

00:24:11.840 They are repeating things that are lies to make them true, and the more you hear it, the more it becomes true.

00:24:23.480 That's why you must never, at work or anywhere else, say the things that you know are not true.

00:24:31.720 Do not go along with the CRT that's being jammed down your throats at school or at work.

00:24:41.520 Your job may depend on you just sitting through one of those things and being quiet.

00:24:47.860 But your children's lives and your freedom, the freedom of the entire world is at stake if you do.

00:24:56.640 Because the more you say it, the more you repeat it, the weaker you become, and the stronger that becomes.

00:25:07.440 They are now starting to use this lie that CRT is not really even happening in our schools.

00:25:16.900 It is.

00:25:17.900 And you know who's going to stop it?

00:25:21.440 In the end, it will be those who fear God. 0.96

00:25:24.460 And last night, I kept falling asleep.

00:25:31.380 I was trying to read my scriptures, and I had such a prompting to read the scriptures, read the scriptures, read the scriptures.

00:25:36.500 And I kept falling asleep.

00:25:38.200 And in the middle of the night, I woke up, read your scriptures, read your scriptures.

00:25:42.520 And so I did.

00:25:44.380 And I happened to be at a really important place.

00:25:51.060 Corinthians, chapter 1.

00:25:54.540 And I went back and I was reading it, and it just, I knew I was supposed to tell you this today.

00:26:02.260 Unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ, the power of God and the wisdom of God. 0.91

00:26:14.580 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

00:26:21.560 For you see your calling.

00:26:26.460 How that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are being called.

00:26:35.100 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise.

00:26:40.240 God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty.

00:26:46.460 So what does this mean?

00:26:47.700 Don't sit down.

00:26:51.440 Do not believe the lie that you're alone, that you don't have any power.

00:26:57.040 You're being called the noble, the mighty, the great.

00:27:01.220 They're not being called.

00:27:04.000 Why?

00:27:05.320 Because they have already been called, and they're called to the other side.

00:27:10.340 It's going to be the foolish things, the weak things, the things that you think can't do anything.

00:27:17.540 They'd have no power.

00:27:18.900 What are we going to do?

00:27:21.320 It's the weak things that are being called by God.

00:27:27.120 Recognize your calling.

00:27:29.700 And stand.

00:27:30.760 Stand with all the love and the power that comes from knowing who God is.

00:27:38.560 And knowing that God is a lover of truth.

00:27:43.920 I can't tell you I know the truth of all things.

00:27:48.920 But I do know the truth of things like CRT.

00:27:53.720 Anything that teaches that an individual can never make it is evil.

00:28:03.240 Anything that denies the power of redemption is evil.

00:28:09.020 Anything that says all people of this category are like this, or people are guilty of the things they didn't do, but their ancestors did.

00:28:25.820 That's evil.

00:28:29.020 Now the mighty and the wise are pushing that down our throats. 0.99

00:28:33.080 Be glad you're part of the foolish and those who are called weak, because we know the truth.

00:28:44.120 We are neither of those things, and God will prevail. 0.99

00:28:48.340 When you're trying to run a business, just about nothing can kill you faster than HR issues, wrongful termination suits, minimum wage requirements, labor regulations.

00:28:57.360 And have you priced an HR manager lately?

00:29:48.900 This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:29:58.380 There's a word trending today on Twitter that was banned.

00:30:04.860 And now they've unbanned it.

00:30:06.940 And now the word Invermectin is trending.

00:30:11.240 We have a guy who has been writing and taking the hits and being banned from social media for saying that word, Invermectin, Daniel Horowitz.

00:30:23.640 Welcome, Daniel.

00:30:24.540 How are you?

00:30:25.940 Hey, I'm doing all right.

00:30:27.180 But I think I'm still being censored for it.

00:30:30.580 Are you?

00:30:31.320 Are you?

00:30:32.720 Do you have?

00:30:33.360 You've written several articles for Blave.com.

00:30:36.220 Go ahead.

00:30:37.380 Yes.

00:30:37.640 No, I actually wrote an article on the censorship of Invermectin, and it was censored from Facebook.

00:30:44.560 And look, I mean, the people that are running Facebook's fact-check operation are funded by those that are producing the vaccines.

00:30:52.340 And I think we all know the problem is not just statutorily that if you have other treatments, you can't pursue an experimental emergency use authorization, but also it takes away from their market share and their ability to control people.

00:31:05.760 So, you know, Glenn, this is not just about Ivermectin.

00:31:08.760 This is about any early, cheap, proven treatment.

00:31:15.160 You are not allowed to treat COVID with something less than $1,000 a dose.

00:31:20.720 And this is a very big problem because commensurate with your belief on how serious this virus is, is your culpability in squelching our ability to actually treat this.

00:31:33.320 So I understand, you know, why we, you know, in the first few weeks, we didn't know what we were dealing with.

00:31:40.760 And so, you know, we, we locked down and I think that was right, et cetera, et cetera, at the beginning until we had a handle on what was going on to see if it was as deadly as all these people were saying.

00:31:53.140 As it turns out, it wasn't.

00:31:54.740 But at the same time, we're taking these great precautions, we are saying Ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine, you can't use those, though.

00:32:04.380 That's all a conspiracy theory.

00:32:06.000 That doesn't make sense.

00:32:08.160 These are hydroxychloroquine over the counter treatment in many countries and has been in use forever.

00:32:16.140 However, and doesn't have any adverse effects unless you take it in doses that no one would have been taking them in.

00:32:24.740 And we were told you can't even do it.

00:32:27.440 And we were shut down.

00:32:29.160 You're saying this is all because of the money of the medical community and the money they were going to make.

00:32:38.400 I really think it's two things.

00:32:41.060 It's control and money. 0.87

00:32:42.320 Obviously, if people no longer fear the virus, meaning that they believe that there is a non-invasive, you know, not like the monoclonal antibodies, you got to go to the hospital or someplace, but something that you could take even prophylaxic, you could take preemptively, first sign of trouble and it and it works.

00:32:59.700 They'll no longer fear it like they no longer fear the flu or a cold or a headache.

00:33:04.660 The minute people fear it, they're willing to go along with the mask, the lockdowns, and certainly they're going to go along with the vaccines without questioning it.

00:33:13.960 And then also there is that legal authority issue that according to the emergency use authorization statute, it can only be granted if there's no adequate, approved, available alternative for diagnosing, preventing and treating the disease.

00:33:28.480 And to me, that's really the kicker, because like everyone else, I never heard of hydroxychloroquine until last year.

00:33:34.760 I didn't even know how to pronounce it.

00:33:36.360 Right.

00:33:36.520 And I figured, all right, well, you're telling me maybe there are problems with it.

00:33:40.040 Maybe there are problems.

00:33:41.360 But then when I started to see they did this to ivermectin and they did this to other drugs, there's colchicine, flu vaccine.

00:33:48.420 There are a lot of ways of treating this.

00:33:50.440 This is not a novel virus in the sense that your eyes spontaneously blow out or something.

00:33:56.880 It's called a cytokine storm where your immune system has this inflammatory response.

00:34:03.240 It's this dysregulation.

00:34:04.780 It could be deadly, but it's very predictable.

00:34:07.400 It's something that pulmonologists, intensivists started to see, like you said, after a couple weeks.

00:34:12.480 It wasn't novel anymore.

00:34:14.280 And there are plenty of antiviral, anti-inflammatory, safe, proven drugs out there.

00:34:20.200 But it seems like ivermectin in particular was almost made for this.

00:34:24.760 It's had 57 studies vouching for its efficacy, 30 randomized controlled trials.

00:34:30.200 And what's funny is the naysayers keep saying we need more data.

00:34:34.800 But then you look at their alacrity to approve either the experimental vaccines or drugs that are very expensive, like remdesivir, $3,000 a pop.

00:34:47.800 Often with one RCT, or in the case of remdesivir, the World Health Organization seemed to show it didn't work.

00:34:55.060 And I think history has proven that to be true.

00:34:57.100 So that juxtaposition is very disturbing, and that could only lead me to the conclusion that this is more about political science and money than real science.

00:35:08.220 Okay, so I'm looking at the updated guide on therapeutics and COVID-19 from the WHO.

00:35:16.980 You had this in one of your Blaze articles.

00:35:18.900 And they looked at the effect estimates.

00:35:24.600 Standard care, 70 died out of every 1,000.

00:35:30.120 With ivermectin, 14 died per 1,000.

00:35:35.800 So it looks like it works.

00:35:38.900 However, it again says certainty of evidence, very low due to serious risk of bias and very serious imprecision.

00:35:47.180 What does that mean?

00:35:49.640 So what's funny is it was just published in the American Journal of Therapeutics, a really strong study showing the safety and low cost suggest that ivermectin is likely to have a significant impact on SARS-CoV-2 pandemic globally.

00:36:03.300 And one observation they make in this paper is that when it comes to things like dextamethasone, it's one of the only things that has been written in the NIH protocol on treatment.

00:36:17.020 That was approved after a single RCT, you know, showing promise.

00:36:23.900 Here we have 30 and it's not enough.

00:36:28.020 It's just low, low amount of data.

00:36:31.320 And this is just very bizarre.

00:36:33.120 And again, it's not just one drug.

00:36:35.600 Let's go to just the trifecta of vitamin D, vitamin C, and zinc, especially at long term.

00:36:42.380 You know, we've had 15 months warning to bulk up our vitamin D levels.

00:36:47.440 This virus is almost exclusively a vitamin D deficiency problem for those that get it very seriously.

00:36:54.200 If you have over 30, 35 vitamin D levels, it's extremely unlikely you're going to have a problem with the virus.

00:37:00.640 How many people do you know that even know about this that are checking their vitamin D levels, getting supplements, and not the, you know, 800 IUs that some of them recommend, but a lot more than that?

00:37:12.560 Nobody.

00:37:13.460 Why aren't they talking about vitamin D?

00:37:15.680 I mean, that's good for everything.

00:37:17.540 So again, you put this together.

00:37:19.140 Rather, it's very hard to escape the conclusion that the reason they're censoring this is something a lot more sinister than just a concern over the right data and accuracy.

00:37:32.100 So I saw a story in passing, and I'd like to know if you've heard any more on this and if it is true.

00:37:39.960 But I have heard that the FDA is starting to come after holistic treatments of things, you know, even all the way down to essential oils.

00:37:52.760 And they're starting to come after these things, which would lead me to believe again they're just trying to herd us into pharmaceuticals above everything else.

00:38:04.540 Is that true?

00:38:05.820 Are they going after those things?

00:38:07.160 So I didn't even realize this.

00:38:10.100 You know, I pride myself on really capturing what's in the legislation that passes Congress, but I missed this.

00:38:16.860 It was in the December omnibus bill.

00:38:18.940 They stuck a provision called the COVID-19 Consumer Protection Act.

00:38:23.280 And it basically allows the Federal Trade Commission to go after anyone who they believe is peddling a cure or diagnosis for COVID that is unproven, which I think should apply to a lot of the pharmaceuticals that are being put out.

00:38:42.600 But this, the DOJ put out a press release, oh, I think in April, going after a Missouri chiropractor, Eric Naputi, who had this quick work cocktail, basically, of zinc and vitamin D.

00:39:00.600 And there are tremendous amounts of studies showing that if you bulk up your zinc and vitamin D levels, it's almost impossible to get a cytokine storm, that inflammatory reaction.

00:39:10.820 And he now has federal charges against him.

00:39:13.440 And this was newly passed in that December omnibus bill from last year.

00:39:18.540 So, again, you put this all together.

00:39:21.880 It shows a very scary pattern that makes you wonder, how long have we been lied to by Big Pharma?

00:39:29.980 And how long have they pushed an anti-scientific agenda just to make a buck?

00:39:33.900 Has it been going on that long?

00:39:40.280 Is this something new?

00:39:41.660 What does your research show?

00:39:44.780 You know, one of the interesting things is since I was a kid, like everyone else, I've always heard that, you know, bacteria you could treat with antibiotics.

00:39:52.840 There's no treatment for viruses.

00:39:54.340 But what a lot of these doctors that have really done the research on how to treat COVID are now saying is that there are a lot of things that have antiviral qualities to them.

00:40:06.140 And some go so far to say that flu season is really a redundant manifestation of a vitamin D deficiency season from October to March above the 35th parallel or sometimes farther south where it's so hot.

00:40:19.740 People just want to remain inside in the air conditioning and people nowadays don't get enough vitamin D, that there is a lot of treatments out there that are safe and effective and just well-known things, even like melatonin that sometimes you use for kids to go to sleep at night that seem to work against COVID.

00:40:38.920 And that's the question, how many other things, such as flus and mono that have ailed kids, do we now have the benefit of possibly treating?

00:40:50.000 And remember, we've pumped in billions of dollars to HHS to hand out as contracts for these wonder drugs and wonder vaccines.

00:40:59.200 But imagine if a little bit of that money was just spent on research on repurposing off-label cheap drugs that are known to have these qualities.

00:41:08.880 But I think we know, given the politics, that they have no incentive of doing that.

00:41:17.180 I'll tell you, Daniel, I took hydroxychloroquine as soon as it came out that it was a possibility.

00:41:25.480 I started taking it and zinc, and the minute I stopped taking it, I got sick.

00:41:33.640 My whole family was sick over the summer.

00:41:36.340 I was right in.

00:41:37.340 I mean, I was kissing my wife while she was sick.

00:41:39.640 I was like, give it to me.

00:41:40.660 I just want it over with.

00:41:41.920 I had been taking hydroxychloroquine and zinc.

00:41:44.500 I didn't get it.

00:41:45.680 I stopped after like August.

00:41:48.940 And by December, I had a horrible bout.

00:41:53.360 And I know that it was the hydroxychloroquine.

00:41:55.880 I'm convinced of it.

00:41:56.980 And it doesn't stop everything, but it is good to prevent.

00:42:02.860 And why this stuff was taken and treated the way it was, to me, goes way beyond their hatred for Donald Trump.

00:42:12.600 It goes into things like, I think, the Great Reset.

00:42:16.900 Daniel, thank you so much.

00:42:18.780 Take care.

00:42:19.540 God bless.
