Hello everybody, I'm John Fawcett with this Great America Show midday update for Wednesday, January 8th.
00:00:06.100
Well, Fulton County DA, Fannie Willis, Big Fannie, can't seem to catch a break and boy is it great to see her going through the troubles
00:00:14.920
or a fraction of the troubles that she attempted to put Donald Trump through and his co-conspirators as she calls them.
00:00:21.900
A Georgia judge this week ordered Fulton County District Attorney Fannie Willis to pay conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch
00:00:28.420
nearly $22,000 in attorney fees. Fulton County Superior Court last month found that Fannie Willis
00:00:34.380
in default for refusing to hand over documents in an open records lawsuit.
00:00:39.700
Fannie refused to answer a public records lawsuit seeking records of her communications with Special Counsel Jack Smith.
00:00:45.980
Last year, the conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch asked the Superior Court in Fulton County
00:00:50.320
to declare a default judgment against Fannie after she refused to respond to the lawsuit and its related connections
00:00:56.860
to the, we'll call it the sham January 6th committee.
00:01:01.140
Fannie Willis finally getting a dose of what she tried to do to Donald Trump and, as I said,
00:01:06.700
his, quote, co-conspirators and the lives she's tried to ruin.
00:01:11.340
We love to see it and hope that this is only the beginning of the price that she pays
00:01:15.480
for what she's done to democracy, to Donald Trump, and this country.
00:01:19.780
And the Biden DOJ not letting off the gas pedal against the newly, we'll call him self-anointed MAGA man,
00:01:30.960
According to Politico, federal prosecutors said in a recent court filing
00:01:34.480
that Adams engaged in criminal acts beyond bribery charges he is already facing.
00:01:39.920
Now, I'm not defending Adams in any way, but the timing of these lawsuits are highly peculiar
00:01:45.300
as Adams decides he finally wants to start working with President Trump
00:01:48.820
in order to secure New York and get rid of those migrants that he himself allowed in here.
00:01:54.220
So, the timing, very peculiar, but interesting nonetheless that Joe Biden has far, far bigger fishes to fry,
00:02:01.540
yet he's going after this low-level mayor of New York City.
00:02:06.100
And Attorney General, or soon-to-be outgoing Attorney General, Marxist Dem, Merrick Garland,
00:02:12.880
is fighting, fighting tooth and nail to release Jack Smith's final report
00:02:16.800
after Judge Eileen Cannon issued a temporary injunction blocking it from public view.
00:02:22.760
On Tuesday yesterday, as we told you, Judge Eileen Cannon blocked Jack Smith's report
00:02:26.620
on his lawfare investigation into President Trump.
00:02:30.340
Merrick Garland previously said he would release Jack Smith's final report on Trump
00:02:34.440
regardless of what anyone had to say, like a true Marxist making his own rules.
00:02:39.560
Judge Cannon's temporary injunction lasts until three days after the Federal Appeals Court
00:02:43.640
issues a ruling on a pending motion to block Jack Smith's report
00:02:47.100
in a case involving other defendants in the classified documents case.
00:02:52.000
Lawyers for Trump's co-defendants, Walt Nauta and Carlos de Oliveira,
00:02:55.660
asked Judge Cannon in a Monday night filing to block Jack Smith's special report
00:02:59.660
based on her previous ruling that the special counsel's appointment was unconstitutional.
00:03:05.220
We'll have to wait and see how this all plays out.
00:03:08.220
Judge Eileen Cannon, from the inception, has been perpetrating truth, justice, and the American way.
00:03:14.640
And the Marxist Dems are having a very, very hard time dealing with it
00:03:18.940
because this lady is actually following the law, not recreating the law, as the Marxist Dems do.
00:03:24.920
Speaking of Marxist Dems, Joe Biden confirms he is weighing Liz Cheney and Anthony Fauci preemptive pardons.
00:03:35.140
President Biden sat down for an interview with USA Today's Susan Page.
00:03:38.820
Receiving a preemptive pardon would indicate an omission of guilt,
00:03:42.560
although some Democrats claim a preemptive pardon would only intend to block President-elect Donald Trump
00:03:50.180
Biden said that he is considering preemptive pardons for public figures,
00:03:53.880
such as Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney and former senior health official Dr. Anthony Fauci,
00:03:59.240
who have been threatened with investigations and prosecution by incoming President Donald Trump.
00:04:03.560
When Biden met with Trump in the Oval Office a week after November's election,
00:04:08.060
he urged the President-elect to not go forward with the threats to target those who have criticized him
00:04:12.340
or, in his Cheney's case, helped lead an effort to impeach him.
00:04:20.480
It's counterintuitive for his interest to go back and try to settle scores.
00:04:25.620
There's no scores to be settled, Mr. President Joe Biden, at least for the next less than two weeks.
00:04:30.920
These folks tried to undermine American democracy.
00:04:38.360
Liz Cheney fought as if she was invincible, untouchable.
00:04:45.760
Anthony Fauci, self-admitting that all the COVID-19 protocols that he came up with were BS.
00:05:00.180
He ruined our children, our kids who couldn't go to school and interact and develop like normal children,
00:05:05.280
over what he knew to be false, what he knew to be a bunch of hogwash.
00:05:13.540
And you look at how kids are developing these days,
00:05:15.540
and it's not as it was in the five years preceding COVID-19.
00:05:21.680
Kids are behind in school because of what they've done to them.
00:05:24.600
And that's only the beginning of the issues that this country has seen.
00:05:28.340
You could go down the line of businesses that were ruined in New York, in the blue areas of New Jersey,
00:05:34.240
New York City, who had to shut down, who were allowed to only have five or ten tables in a restaurant that could hold hundreds and thousands of people,
00:05:42.240
of barber shops who were only allowed to have one person at a time.
00:05:44.920
And businesses were destroyed and ruined because of Dr. Anthony Fauci.
00:05:48.740
So the fact that he would have a preemptive pardon, nonetheless, he said he did nothing wrong.
00:05:54.020
And the Democrats maintain that Cheney and Fauci did nothing wrong.
00:05:59.780
Anthony Fauci needs to be investigated, pardoned or not, for what he's done to this country.
00:06:03.840
And if you could find me a person who'd disagree with that, they are for sure a Marxist and are in favor of censorship and government overreach,
00:06:12.120
because that's what happened to us during COVID-19.
00:06:15.340
And the Golden Globes ratings have dropped in 2025.
00:06:19.140
No surprise there, but down from the abysmal 2024 viewership.
00:06:23.020
I know, it's hard to believe that these ratings could get any lower,
00:06:26.860
but just like the Marxist Dems and their news networks and the mainstream media, the ratings are in a free fall.
00:06:32.680
The 82nd Golden Globes, which broadcasted on Sunday, drew just 9.3 million viewers.
00:06:41.840
Overall viewership is down a whopping 49% from its recent highs just five years ago.
00:06:48.640
The thing that's so alarming to me is these Hollywood folks are not stupid.
00:06:52.840
They've made a lot of money, millions, hundreds of millions in some cases.
00:06:57.700
Off the backs of Americans with their content and, you know, TV shows and movies and all that good stuff.
00:07:04.600
You would think these people would have woken up.
00:07:07.640
I don't mean gotten woke, but woken up to the ideology that woke is dead.
00:07:15.960
You look at what Donald Trump did on November 5th across the board.
00:07:21.740
You would think these idiots would finally wake up and realize that Americans don't want our actors getting involved in politics.
00:07:28.800
We want them to do their job, provide entertainment for us, and stay out of the political eye.
00:07:33.560
Yet some of them just can't seem to help themselves.
00:07:36.460
You look at folks like Rosie O'Donald, who's fallen from the top, non-existent anymore.
00:07:41.640
The folks on The View used to have very good ratings, very good viewership.
00:07:44.660
But now they can barely scrape together a few viewers to watch their show.
00:07:49.540
Some of these people are so mentally deranged that they can't help themselves.
00:07:52.720
But the ones who are smart enough to figure it out, hopefully they start to wake up and realize,
00:07:58.080
we just want the entertainment and the comedy and all that good stuff that we had from the years ago.
00:08:02.660
We don't want to hear politics in news, rather in Hollywood and in our movies.
00:08:09.340
And we don't want that woke transgender stuff in our kids for the kids' films.
