Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) joins Lou Dobbs on the Great America Show to discuss his views on vaccines, the FDA, and much more. Plus, a look at the results of Tuesday's primary election in Arizona.
00:14:09.400And, I mean, really, literally, you know, we got Democrats supporting drag queens, dancing for first graders.
00:14:15.480We got them giving picture books on how your kindergartner can change their sex.
00:14:19.200The National Democrats have become so bizarre and weird that no self-respecting Southern Democrat wants to be a Democrat anymore.
00:14:27.560I can't imagine why any self-respecting American would put up with the insanity, the irrationality of the left in this country.
00:14:38.460Because it is – really, they are parading mental illness in the public square and calling it policy and ideology, philosophy, and they want to make it regulation and law.
00:14:51.480It seems if ever there were a time for a tsunami, not a wave, but a tsunami, this would be the year.
00:15:00.180But your thought about the state of the body politics brain right now.
00:15:11.920And I think that some of these things you're starting to see, you know, some of the more traditional Democrats worrying that there's too much discussion of, you know, having the black kids sit on one side and the white kids sit on the other side as critical race craziness.
00:15:27.060This sort of idea that somehow some kind of new segregation is a way to teach people about the difference between the races.
00:15:34.540And the absurdity of that, the absurdity of drag queens in our school, the absurdity of people letting, you know, a six-foot-three boy swim in the women's or girls swimming meet in college.
00:15:46.400That stuff is so bizarre that you're finding even people who want to say, well, I don't really like the Republicans, but the Democrats are too damn crazy anymore.
00:15:54.480I think that is – that's going to hurt them.
00:15:57.120And I think that's – and you add in the inflation and you wonder how they could possibly win.
00:16:02.260The only possibility is that there's still sort of a divide between workers and non-workers, and I think the Republican Party has convinced people who work that their money is more frugally looked after by Republicans.
00:16:16.960And I think that's something that has to keep going, and we have to keep trying to expand our workforce to have more people in it that realize the importance of work and the importance of having frugality in government.
00:16:26.520But I think something big is happening, and I appreciate you having me on.
00:16:30.160I'm going to have to run, but thanks a lot for having me on, Lou.
00:16:38.800Always good to have Senator Rand Paul with us.
00:16:41.220And now we're joined by conservative attorney Kurt Olson, who's a former Navy SEAL, who's represented President Donald Trump and my pillow founder, Mike Lindell.
00:16:51.760Kurt, delighted to have you with us here on The Great America Show.
00:16:55.020I want to start with the Biden administration's efforts to evade the effect of the Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade,
00:17:03.280where they're trying to codify Roe v. Wade or the Biden DOJ taking on state abortion restrictions or even bans.
00:17:13.300Yeah, I mean, I think it's important to recognize that the Supreme Court ruling in the Dobbs case did not take away abortion.
00:17:22.000It merely sent it back to the states for the voters and the representatives of those states to decide how they want to proceed within their own state.
00:17:32.920And so the Supreme Court didn't say that abortion is illegal.
00:17:37.060They just said, states, this is your decision.
00:17:40.140There is nothing in the Constitution that speaks one way or the other about abortion.
00:17:44.980And what you're seeing with the Biden administration in their attempt to codify is really to take away people's rights to vote on this issue themselves.
00:17:57.720This is a Marxist type or fascist type dictatorship where the federal government is trying to once again dictate to the people an issue that is quintessentially a state issue.
00:18:11.600And we're seeing authoritarian impulses, to put it kindly, throughout the Biden administration.
00:18:19.300The number of executive orders, administrative orders that he's issued, everything from the, if you will, reversing President Trump's border policies,
00:18:31.200including the remain in Mexico policy with the Supreme Court, by the way, just upheld today.
00:18:36.300We're seeing a president who is obviously so impaired that he is little more than a puppet.
00:18:45.040But those who are his masters are insisting upon a decidedly left-wing turn for the entire country, whether it be legislatively or whether it be through executive fiat.
00:18:59.560It is a remarkable thing to witness and a chilling, chilling development.
00:19:05.180It is, and I think it's important to recognize not just the mechanism by which these policies are being instituted, for example,
00:19:13.860via executive order or administrative order and so forth.
00:19:17.800It's what is the effect of those policies?
00:19:20.960And so why on earth would anybody who wants to, loves this country, as a patriot, wants to preserve what this country is all about,
00:19:31.740why would you have an open border policy, for example?
00:19:35.180Why would you give $45 billion to Ukraine, ostensibly for their military, but there's no audit of that money?
00:19:44.480We'll never know where exactly it goes, yet deny even a penny to help small businesses.
00:19:50.980And it really does seem like this administration is almost at war with the American people.
00:19:57.460It does seem that way, and it may seem that way because they are at war with the American people and with our very values and institutions.
00:20:09.000They have effectively become an armed extension, they being the FBI, an armed extension of the Marxist-led Democrat Party.
00:20:19.860Yeah, no, there are some very troubling instances.
00:20:27.580I actually, some of the folks that I work with, you know, went to the FBI.
00:20:33.080Some of them were at their HRT, their hostage rescue team.
00:20:36.240And it's surprising to me that the FBI is sending out SWAT teams to go serve warrants on people like Paul Manafort or Stone.
00:20:52.200I mean, these are, you know, elderly gentlemen.
00:20:53.820They're no threat to society, certainly not violent.
00:20:56.600Or Peter Navarro, former president of Trump's assistant.
00:20:59.900And Tina Peters, who you may have heard about, who is the former clerk in Mesa County, Colorado, who found what she thought was election fraud and took it upon herself in that case to preserve an image, a forensic image of the computerized voting system there.
00:21:23.060It's called the election management system.
00:21:24.560And what she uncovered is quite stunning, including that Dominion, with the Secretary of State's blessing, Jenna Griswold, who is supported by George Soros, that they overwrote the entire operating system and destroying all auditable logs about what went on in the elections.
00:21:43.520Among other things, there's also evidence that there is actual machine manipulation that's going on there.
00:21:49.060Within this machine, it's been discovered that there were magically two new databases that were created with no apparent authorization or mechanism to do so.
00:22:02.140And then the select migration of digital ballots.
00:22:05.800And I don't want to get too much in the weeds, but I wanted to explain that because as a consequence of that, the FBI started raiding people's houses.
00:22:13.920And Sharona Bishop, who is an activist for election integrity, her house was raided.
00:22:21.700Her door was bashed in with a battering ram.
00:22:24.560Her daughter was taken out down the stairs by her hoodie.
00:22:29.060And she, the FBI, with SWAT teams, took all their electronics, didn't charge anybody.
00:22:36.100And they've done that to several other people.
00:22:39.080And we're talking Belinda Nicely, who was a Tina Peters clerk.
00:22:45.080She's a 70-year-old grandmother, and they sent an FBI SWAT team out for her.
00:22:49.280And it does seem to be pure intimidation and a weaponization of the FBI and the Department of Justice.
00:22:56.520Would the men that you served with in special warfare, with the SEALs, would they have taken an order to do something like that?
00:24:03.160So when you're seeing, for example, we talked about the weaponization of the FBI to go run after folks like Roger Stone and Paul Manafort who present no threat.
00:24:12.980Or you can look at drag queen shows for little kids, CRT, the fact that we cut off our domestic energy production.
00:24:22.920And then blame the rise in prices or attempt to blame the rise in prices on Putin's war in Ukraine.
00:24:30.060There are so many attacks, and what it does is it keeps people off balance and unsure of what to do next or to know how this is all coming about.
00:24:40.660I think it's actually intentional that you're seeing this panoply of acts that are undermining the family unit, the societal unit, the governmental institutions that exist.
00:24:52.920I think it's all part of a coordinated effort.
00:24:57.420And by definition, we're talking about a Marxist initiative within the Democrat Party.
00:25:05.500Indeed, Marxist Dems seem to be driving the leadership of the Democrat Party.
00:25:13.360What is not clear to me, amongst many things, but amongst those many things, what is not clear to me is why we once said of the FBI, no matter what happened, but for the most part, the FBI is made up of great Americans, wonderful, wonderful Americans doing their jobs.
00:25:35.820We no longer hear that because no one has stepped forward, not a whistleblower, not a single person has informed on the FBI, even as they lied and persecuted knowingly an innocent president and accused him of collusion with the Russians.
00:25:56.100A disinformation campaign created and a conspiracy fostered by none other than his political opponent in the election of 2016, Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee and the law firm for the Democratic National Committee of the Democratic Party, Perkins Coy.
00:26:14.740A conspiracy this vast, this broad, and this deep within the deep state, I don't have – I've had people say to me, what do you mean, deep state?
00:26:29.720And I've said to them, explained to them for years, but I have to say even I would not have imagined that it was this pervasive and this animated within our federal government.
00:26:41.280Well, I think it's grown over time, and there's clear evidence, and so I would point you to – there is a FISA court judge, her name is Judge Collier, she issued in April of 2017 a 99-page opinion, somewhat redacted, but that opinion arose out of the circumstance where Admiral Mike Rogers,
00:27:08.940who was then head of the NSA uncovered the FBI, who was then head of the NSA, uncovered the FBI utilizing NSA tools to surveil illegally people like those in the Trump administration and those who worked within his orbit.
00:27:23.100And when he reported it, they conducted an investigation, and it went up to Judge Collier, and it's all documented in this FISA court opinion, again, a 99-page opinion.
00:27:37.660And what the court found there were there were third-party contractors that the FBI was using to surveil and spy on thousands and thousands of Americans, and it went back to as early as 2012.
00:27:52.760And what they found, and this is the judge's opinion, and I would encourage everybody to look this up and read it.
00:28:01.800I believe it was over 85% of these quote-unquote search queries, and these are using NSA tools that can uncover any conversation we have,
00:28:10.920whether it's a text message, a voicemail, a cell phone call, an email, the surveillance capabilities of our government to know everything we do is stunning.
00:28:24.600And the FBI was misusing that through third-party contractors, and then we just found out who was that likely third-party contractor.
00:28:34.800It was the law firm of Perkins Coie, who had essentially a SCIF in their office to use these NSA tools to go after political opponents.
00:29:29.700We've been reporting on this relationship between the Democrats and the FBI for quite some time.
00:29:36.160But give us your sense of just how this came to be, how pervasive do you think it is, and is it an absolute relationship that is one that is permanent and fixed and not likely to change?
00:29:55.300In terms of how it came about, I think it, you know, the digitization of information over the past 30 years has provided an opportunity, particularly with the tools that have become available for surveillance and control.
00:30:17.300Some might even say blackmail and other, you know, the ability to ferret out information that has grown exponentially.
00:30:27.080And the temptation to use or misuse those capabilities are what has led us to the point where we're at.
00:30:35.360And I would not lay all blame at the feet of the Democrats.
00:30:41.660I think, you know, with all these revelations that we're hearing about now, where are the Republicans?
00:30:47.300I mean, there's a few that have come out.
00:30:49.720But by and large, you know, they've been silent.
00:30:52.980And you would think they would be screaming from the hilltops that Perkins Coie had a portal using—working with the FBI to do a political spying operation.
00:31:03.320And why isn't—you know, why aren't they screaming, like I said, from the mountaintop?
00:31:08.120Well, one of the reasons might be that the FBI in absolute league with the Democrat Party would be a fairly chilling prospect for anyone in the Republican Party.
00:31:21.960A party, by the way, its leadership is not exactly made up of, you know, silver and bronze star winners and extraordinarily courageous American patriots.
00:31:33.920They are the establishment, and they are cowardly to the extreme.
00:31:39.660It seems to be a litmus test that they have to pass to go into the RNC.
00:31:46.020I mean, I think that, you know, the establishment, you know, what you heighten is—involves both parties.
00:31:50.780It's about power and control and preserving the benefits that they have attained, you know, by virtue of their positions.
00:32:00.960And much of this has been going on for the past few years without—you know, the average person, you know, they're busy carrying on their lives.
00:32:08.320They've basically outsourced their—the function of keeping security and, you know, what's going on in terms of the direction of the country and economic policy.
00:32:20.560Much of that has just been outsourced to those that they think are going to be good stewards.
00:32:25.220Even if they're a Democrat or Republican, they don't think that they're actually going to actively subvert the interests of the country, you know, on a broad scale.
00:32:35.160But that, I believe, is what has actually happened, and we're seeing it now.
00:32:42.560For the six months that—the last six months of President Trump's campaign, in which the FBI aggressively, actively tried to frame and then succeeded as soon as President Trump was elected,
00:32:59.400in framing General Michael Flynn, Lieutenant General Flynn, was framed.
00:33:05.160By the FBI, and those were, obviously, James Comey carrying out his orders.
00:33:12.120We know that the entire intelligence apparatus—well, I shouldn't say the entire intelligence apparatus.
00:33:17.580We know that the principal chiefs of the principal—the chiefs of the principal agencies, and by that I mean the FBI, National Security Division, the CIA, the NSA—all were involved in a plot to, in point of fact, either stymie or overthrow President Trump.
00:33:42.140You bring up with what you're saying an interesting question, Admiral Mike Rogers of the NSA.
00:33:49.280What we don't hear a lot of discussion about and what we don't see much coverage of, and that can mean many things, as you know, but Admiral Rogers and, before him, General Keith Alexander,
00:34:02.280their names have not been in any way associated with that metadata that the NSA, in fact, was responsible for collecting under, by the way, under statute, they may be the good guys, to the degree that there are any, amongst the chieftains of the intelligence agencies.
00:34:28.400Well, I mean, it's been publicly reported that Admiral Mike Rogers, as I mentioned earlier, uncovered illegal activity by the FBI, undertook an investigation.
00:34:38.400And then, at least from the reports that I've read, he went and warned President Trump, who was at his offices in Trump Tower, and I believe it was you had Brennan and a few of the other agency heads try to fire Rogers for warning the president that his office and his communications were being spied upon.
00:35:02.400And that's when the president uprooted and took his office over to New Jersey.
00:35:09.400And so Mike Rogers, by all appearances, did the right thing.
00:35:22.400And, and the American people are working against a, a complicit, this is a kind word, the complicit national corporatist media, ABC News owned by Disney, CNN owned by AT&T, and now Warner Brothers Discovery.
00:35:42.400We're watching these corporate owned outlets doing the bidding of their corporate masters, and they are now left wing.
00:35:55.400And we have a country that hasn't come to terms with the reality that we have a national left wing media aligned with the radical Marxist Dem Democrat Party, also with the legal system, the court system.
00:36:12.400I mean, go through our society, where is there not a determinant Marxist left influence or school circling academia, higher education, the medical profession.
00:36:29.400What, where do we turn to find a significant number of independent conservative patriots who are concerned about this country and are not committed to the left?
00:36:42.400Well, I think people are waking up because now people are being a there.
00:36:47.400It's they're seeing it for their very own eyes.
00:36:50.400And not only that, the policies that are being implemented are directly affecting the gas prices.
00:36:56.400Obviously inflation being one of the most most recent examples.
00:37:01.400And so people in general tend to take action when their personal interests are directly affected.
00:37:09.400And General Flynn has a great, a great phrase, catchphrase, which is local action, national impact.
00:37:16.400And, you know, we're seeing it now with grassroots in the various states that we're working with on the election issues, which we're still actively pursuing and uncovering.
00:37:26.400And people, people recognize the first thing is they recognize what's going on.
00:37:32.400And then secondly, they're actively taking steps to participate and to stop what's going on.
00:37:39.400And that's whether it's running for your local school board or just educating a friend about things like the World Economic Forum.
00:37:47.400Many people that I talk to look at me like, what are you talking about the World Economic Forum?
00:37:52.400I actually had one friend and I mentioned Klaus Schwab, who's the head of the World Economic Forum, which, as you know, is a group that's been in place for decades that has basically infiltrated governments around the world.
00:38:05.400They have over 4,000 individuals that they call, quote, young global leaders, and their agenda is a Marxist agenda.
00:38:15.400This is the build back better, the new world order, build back better.
00:38:20.400You are going to you're not going to own anything and you're going to be happy.
00:38:28.400And everybody should just go on to a search engine, look up World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab.
00:38:35.400But again, people are starting to learn about this, but they didn't know about it up until recently.
00:38:42.400Even myself, you know, I confess, you know, up until after the November 2020 election.
00:38:48.400That's really when I started to become much more aware about what is really going on in the world and where they're trying to to lead us.
00:38:57.400And the idea, I think, that's difficult for people to get their head around is just how big this is, how many people are involved and how deep the tentacles of control go.
00:39:10.400And I'll give, I think, just one one discrete example.
00:39:13.400You look at the beginning of this COVID-19 China virus pandemic.
00:39:20.400There were recognized therapeutics that have been used for years, hydroxychloroquine that the president talked immediately.
00:39:29.400You know, that's a drug that I, as a seal, took a precursor to to prevent.
00:40:00.400And even the American Medical Association in January 2021 came out and said, oh, this is can be a treatment for the China virus or COVID-19.
00:40:13.400You saw all these studies come out saying it's it's it'll cause QT prolongation, you know, heart heart attacks and and everything else.
00:40:22.400It was it was a propaganda campaign that you saw in the media.
00:40:26.400You saw it in publications, recognized medical journals like The Lancet, which came out with a fraudulent study that they had to withdraw, which had said that hydroxychloroquine is not effective and it's dangerous.
00:40:39.400They withdrew that study within two weeks after it was shown for the world that it was based on fraudulent data.
00:40:45.400You said you saw that the medical boards were threatening doctors for prescribing.
00:40:51.400And so but I think it's important to recognize and just get real quickly, the interlocking between media, the medical community, academia and governmental policy in terms of prohibiting and suppressing the use of a cheap, effective therapeutic, which had the consequence of likely, at least according to Dr.
00:41:15.400Dr. Robert Malone has been very outspoken.
00:41:18.400He said that the suppression of therapeutics like Ivermectin and HCQ likely killed around 500,000 people.
00:41:24.400Yeah, I know I take these estimates even from Dr.
00:41:30.400Dr. Malone standing, who's a frequent guest here.
00:41:33.400I take that with if if you will, just a suggestion, at least that it's a wide, wide ranging estimate.
00:41:42.400I don't know what the right number is.
00:41:46.400It's very hard to figure because we don't know about the therapeutics, their impact at the point at the incipient point of the pandemic.
00:41:55.400I do know this, Dr. Robert Malone, Dr.
00:41:58.400Peter McCullough, others were exactly right in their demand for therapeutics, not simply a vaccine, which was the end all and be all understandably for the Trump administration and for the CDC.
00:42:16.400But we are dealing with something, as I said, I just point me to one part of our society, our economy that isn't left wing right now.
00:42:26.400And you just made my point. The medical community, academia, research and development, the scientific community tends to genuflect when the herd coalesces around a government view.
00:42:41.400It's a very it's unlike anything. I'm a product of the 60s. I believe in critical judgment.
00:42:48.400I believe in not trusting your government. I'm skeptical of government and was taught from an early age to be so.
00:42:56.400I think that we've lost that healthy skepticism. But it's I think that to your point, I think it's being resurrected.
00:43:05.400Well, it used to be that, you know, in the 60s, it was always fighting against the man and fighting against authority.
00:43:14.400And now you see that the Democrat Party and the left have embraced authority.
00:43:20.400And that that's a that's a big tell. And then you layer on top of it the pure propaganda that's being imposed on the American people from a wide variety of topics.
00:43:31.400I mean, even you referred to the vaccine for COVID-19.
00:43:36.400Well, they had to redefine what a vaccine was because this isn't a vaccine at all.
00:43:41.400It's a gene therapy. But if you look at event 201 and your readers can.
00:43:48.400It's just it's a genetic engineering. It's gene therapy.
00:43:51.400It changes the messenger RNA in our bodies.
00:43:56.400And they actually did studies on this where if they called it gene therapy, people would be less likely to take it for obvious reasons.
00:44:04.400But they call it a vaccine and people are used to that and they're more compliant.
00:44:08.400And so and it's still under emergency use authorization.
00:44:12.400It's not FDA approved that should give everyone something of a of a pause.
00:44:17.400We are also now learning that some of these companies, including Pfizer, an extraordinary number of deaths associated with the vaccines that were not reported.
00:44:32.400And by the way, the media has simply relaxed around this idea and have just taking it as sort of business as usual, that infants to five year olds now should be getting these doses of genetic engineering, if you will.
00:44:48.400These vaccines, but we know that and we and we know what, at least to some degree, we don't know and we have much to learn.
00:44:57.400But I want to turn to the elections and election integrity, if I may, Kurt, we've got a lot of people.
00:45:04.400I was just talking earlier with John McLaughlin of the McLaughlin Group, a foremost GOP pollster, I think a brilliant political analyst.
00:45:14.400We're talking about all of the policies that are disastrous to the Biden administration, yet Biden doesn't reverse policies.
00:45:22.400What if this election doesn't reflect a higher level of electoral integrity, a higher level of electoral security?
00:45:30.400In other words, what if Mr. Biden would like to see a replication of what happened in 2020?
00:45:38.400Because it sure as hell isn't the Republican Party.
00:45:42.400Now, the Republican Party, I think, has really fought election integrity, certainly in 2020.
00:45:51.400I mean, when you heard Marco Rubio chastise the president about mail in voting, that mail in voting is rife with opportunities for fraud.
00:46:03.400And I mean, I can remember Senator Rubio saying, oh, no problems with mail in voting.
00:46:08.400Well, you can go back to the what's called the Carter Baker Commission in 2005 that expressly stated mail in voting offers the greatest opportunity for obvious reasons for fraud.
00:46:19.400And so this wasn't controversial, yet they did.
00:47:10.400That's a professor of computer science at the University of Michigan named Professor J. Alex Halderman, who is a recognized election expert and has been sounding the alarm about how electronic voting machines are going to be used to steal elections on a national level.
00:47:28.400By the way, I shouldn't interject here because Halderman, who has just written a report that has reports written about the report, but which none of us has seen or read because it's been without.
00:47:45.400But to his warnings, those warnings go back years.
00:47:50.400And there are warnings that, in my judgment, and obviously yours, should be heeded.
00:47:55.400But my great question here is, why in the world aren't our secretaries of state in various, in all of the states, why aren't the election departments and commissions in each of those states,
00:48:12.400why don't they know what the major electronic voting companies are doing with their ballots?
00:48:20.400Why don't, my wife and I went to vote recently, there wasn't even a brand name on the ballot machine.
00:48:31.400It is mindless what we have allowed to grow up in this country since 2000 in electronic voting.
00:48:39.400Yeah, no, that's, that's absolutely true.
00:48:42.400The electronic voting machines will not make public their source code.
00:49:11.400So that allows the opportunity to manipulate.
00:49:13.400And the source code that will, it, the voting machine companies refuse to make that public.
00:49:20.400And in terms of, you know, wide, you know, there's a generalizations.
00:49:24.400I mean, there's a wide variety of reasons, but I, I would note this.
00:49:28.400It's well known that George Soros targeted local races.
00:49:34.400When I mean local, I mean the state level and, and, and lower such as local DAs.
00:49:39.400And, you know, the, the, the Soros supported DAs through his open society foundation.
00:49:43.400You know, we've already seen the consequence of having DAs who refuse to prosecute crimes.
00:49:49.400For example, at least crimes committed by people like Antifa and other left wing groups, but the same thing is.
00:49:58.400And the most recent report that I have seen on those Soros place prosecutors that there are now 75 of them across the country and in some of the largest cities and counties in the country.
00:50:12.400It is truly amazing that George Soros gets away with us.
00:50:20.400And George Soros has just like he's done with the DAs gone after secretaries of state.
00:50:26.400And so when you ask, like, how does this happen?
00:50:29.400Just like a friend of mine who, who rose up to the level of Admiral and was working at, at, at a high level agency, explained to me how the bureaucracy works.
00:50:40.400You know, you get one person in and then they start creating a little fiefdom with their friends.
00:50:46.400And they're, they're more concerned about protecting themselves or what they want to do than what their purpose was for being part of that agency to begin with.
00:50:55.400So if you get a George Soros left wing supported secretary of state, who are they going to hire?
00:51:01.400They're going to hire like-minded individuals.
00:51:04.400And all of a sudden you have a nest that's basically running the elections and it's where we get now.
00:51:11.400For example, in Wisconsin, you may recall the Racine County sheriff found that the Wisconsin election commission, which is highly left wing for the most part.
00:51:20.400I think there's only one Republican, not just broke the law.
00:51:24.400They shattered the law in the 2020 election when they told, instructed nursing homes to disregard the law and allow anybody to come in and fill out ballots for elderly nursing home residents.
00:51:40.400Many of whom suffered from dementia and other infirmities and were completely cognitively impaired and couldn't vote.
00:51:46.400And there was at least one instance in this investigation where one of the, one of the family members said, you know, my mother-in-law voted in 2020.
00:51:57.400She hasn't voted in 10 years and she's bedridden and with severe dementia.
00:52:05.400And they found that not only out of that one nursing home did it, where there is usually 10 votes, it went up to 42 votes, I believe.
00:52:14.400And there are thousands of nursing homes in Wisconsin that were affected by this policy.
00:52:21.400And so you see left wing election officials who have burrowed in, who are disregarding the law.
00:52:30.400And in 2020, and I suspect you'll see it in the future, doing everything they can to maintain power, because that's what this is all about.
00:52:57.400And so, but with the rise of social media, which when you move away from the traditional social media, you know, Twitter and Facebook and so forth,
00:53:09.400and get into Telegram, Truth Social, Frank Social, which is Mike Lindell's site, and others, you see that the word is getting out.
00:53:21.400I mean, there is a reason why President Trump in 2020 got more votes than any other sitting president in history, despite over four years of relentlessly negative coverage.
00:53:38.400And that's because the mainstream media is losing its power.
00:53:42.400And so in terms of people are getting their information from alternative sources.
00:53:49.400They're doing more research and trying to uncover the truth.
00:53:54.400And it's difficult when there's a wave of propaganda that's being put out by the mainstream, but people trust, you know, trust Fox, for example, your old network.
00:54:04.400But Fox is, you know, when I watch Fox, for example, on your Ukraine conflict when Putin invaded Ukraine in February, it was relentless, nonstop, one-sided coverage.
00:54:20.400Putin was the next coming of Hitler, you know, the NATO's at risk, Europe is at risk, you know, he's going to recreate the former Soviet Union, the parade of horribles.
00:54:30.400And if you had any alternative viewpoint, and there was one, and that was by Colonel McGregor, who was telling the truth on Tucker, about what was going on in Ukraine, and the reasons why Putin did invade.
00:54:46.400And, you know, one of those reasons is Ukraine and NATO and the US refused to say that Ukraine would not be part of NATO when it is on Russia's doorstep.
00:54:58.400The Biden administration was inviting Ukraine from the moment that Joe Biden took office 18 months ago.
00:55:06.400They began working to move Ukraine into NATO, inviting Ukraine and Zelensky to join NATO, which was a red line for Putin from the very beginning.
00:55:19.400But when he knew that he would invade Ukraine, there wasn't a single diplomatic initiative on the part of the Biden administration, the State Department, none whatsoever to stop that invasion.
00:55:33.400And that speaks, I think, loudly, clearly, and comprehensively, as to where the responsibility lies in the run up to the Putin decision, and I blame Putin entirely for his decision to attack Ukraine.
00:55:51.400But the Biden administration bears great responsibility.
00:55:55.400I think they do. I would agree with that.
00:55:57.400I would also note, you haven't seen any effort to resolve this diplomatically.
00:56:02.400You know, the refrain, we're going to fight to the last Ukrainian is, you know, is true, because all we are doing is supplying more and more weapons.
00:56:49.400Yeah. And the CIA is now it's been reported that they've been actively involved there with advisers stationed out of Kiev to direct the war effort.
00:57:02.400We it's been reported that 2014 that that was a CIA instigated color revolution.
00:57:12.400The the the use of bio lab facilities there, which which is quite interesting, if that was a color revolution, I must say that it ended badly.
00:57:23.400And we should remove the CIA from even the list of intelligence agencies when the result is that Crimea is taken over by Vladimir Putin.
00:57:34.400I mean, I believe some of this to a point and I and I certainly am no fan of the CIA, but here's the reality.
00:57:41.400The reality again is Zelensky after one month of conflict wanted to negotiate with Putin over Donbass and the eastern Ukrainian region that Putin claims.
00:57:55.400And and the Biden administration said no.
00:58:00.400And now here we are all these deaths, all this destruction later.
00:58:05.400And again, the Biden administration itself bears responsibility.
00:58:12.400We can move off into the shadows with the CIA and various other agencies, but this is emanating straight from the Biden White House.
00:59:02.400But if you can give me an example of a of a checkout list for the money that we have spent on anything in the last 10 years about where the money went.
00:59:17.400I mean, we've got 80, 85 billion dollars in military equipment sitting in Afghanistan that we left for the Taliban.
00:59:24.400I mean, we can get going through the list.
00:59:28.400You know, it's just amazing to me when I look at Iraq and Afghanistan, we squandered trillions of dollars under Republican and Democratic presidents.
00:59:58.400And most Americans should should really, you know, ask themselves, why?
01:00:05.400Why have we tolerated this kind of conduct?
01:00:09.400We always give our guests the last word.
01:00:12.400And I want to give you that opportunity for your concluding thoughts here on The Great America Show.
01:00:17.400Well, I would like to encourage everyone, as General Flynn has said and I mentioned earlier, the local action national impact.
01:00:28.400And people need to understand that what's going on now is not normal.
01:00:34.400This isn't a situation where maybe the Republicans will take control of the of the House and Senate in these upcoming midterms and things will get back to normal.
01:00:46.400What we are at a point in the history of this country that is far more precarious and it's going to require people to step forward and not just rely on their elected officials.
01:00:59.400Of course, people need to come out and vote in massive numbers, but they can no longer people can no longer outsource their security or their their freedom and put it in the hands of others.
01:01:12.400And that means a educating yourself about what's going on, not just reading the headline, but actually finding out about the World Economic Forum, finding out why these vaccines, which are really a gene therapy or what's the data behind that?
01:01:29.400How many people is it really hurting? Why is the FDA and Pfizer trying to keep that information secret for 75 years?
01:01:36.400You know, so go on to other social media sites like Telegram is a great one.
01:01:45.400Truth Social, Frank Social. Listen to Frank Speech.
01:01:49.400Brandon House and Mike Lindell both have terrific, terrific newscasts at seven and eight Eastern every night and you'll learn the real news.
01:02:01.400And so this is as much about education and everybody needs to educate themselves to wake up to what's going on and then participation to actively play a role in preserving our freedoms, because if we don't, we're going to lose them.
01:02:15.400And we're at a precarious moment in our country's history right now.
01:02:30.400Thanks, everybody, for joining us today.
01:02:33.400Thanks to Senator Paul and thanks to Kurt Olson for being with us.
01:02:37.400And here Monday on The Great America Show, our guest will be our friend Steve Bannon, former chief strategist to President Donald Trump and now the host of Steve Bannon's War Room podcast.
01:02:49.400Till then, God bless you and God bless America.
