Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Great America Podcast with Lou Dobbs,
00:00:04.200
always in the fight for truth, justice, and yes, our American way of life.
00:00:09.220
And now, here he is, the Peabody award-winning voice of truth, the great Lou Dobbs.
00:00:14.720
Hello, everybody, and welcome back to the Great America Show.
00:00:18.520
Here we always keep in view what a great nation America is and what a great people we Americans are.
00:00:24.860
Our perspective, obviously, the opposite of the left-wing national media and the Marxist left
00:00:30.500
that controls the Democratic Party and insidiously permeates now our schools from kindergarten through university.
00:00:38.780
Teachers in our public schools seem more energized by indoctrination rather than education of our young people.
00:00:46.700
But we are coming to terms, aren't we, with the threats that this nation faces,
00:00:51.300
whether from the left and the Democratic Party, or from within the Republican Party
00:00:56.380
and the RINOs who further empowered the Biden administration and its socialist agenda.
00:01:03.180
It may be more than socialist, but we'll leave it at socialist for now.
00:01:07.460
Thirteen Republican members of the House, 19 senators,
00:01:10.700
supporting the multi-trillion dollar spending plan of Mr. Biden.
00:01:15.000
And Biden's buddy, Mitch McConnell, the Senate Majority Leader, hailed that bipartisan legislation.
00:01:22.220
Thanks to his RINO stewardship, Biden was able to move this nation closer to being a debtor nation in perpetuity.
00:01:29.340
There's much political confusion raging through our body politic now, and no wonder.
00:01:35.160
We have a president and vice president who together have historic low approval ratings,
00:01:39.920
who insult the intelligence of American voters almost daily,
00:01:44.800
while blaming, for example, American consumers for supply chain disruptions.
00:01:51.260
President Biden is keeping our border wide open and importing poverty and uneducated labor
00:01:57.380
by bringing in what is estimated to be 2 million illegal immigrants in Biden's first full year in office.
00:02:07.020
But amidst these confounding times, there are rays of transparency and some great clarity.
00:02:14.340
With his recent indictment, special counsel, John Durham, is bringing facts to life to support
00:02:20.560
what many of us have suspected for years and some of us have actually known.
00:02:25.840
The Trump dossier was a fraud, a smear job organized by the Clinton campaign,
00:02:31.220
the Democratic National Committee, a leading Democratic law firm,
00:02:34.540
and, of course, the national left-wing media, obliging at almost every turn.
00:02:40.260
Chronicling the outrages against President Donald Trump,
00:02:43.880
the Federalist Web magazine has been amongst the most prominent news organizations
00:02:47.940
covering the Russia hoax, the attempted impeachments of President Trump,
00:02:53.040
the political carnival of 2020, and the presidential election beset by fraud, irregularities,
00:02:58.540
and still unanswered questions about how the vote was counted and by whom.
00:03:04.340
The Justice Department, the FBI, other investigative law enforcement agencies
00:03:08.980
chose not to investigate, not to inquire, and simply stepped aside,
00:03:14.340
leaving open the central and still red-hot political question,
00:03:18.120
was there sufficient fraud and irregularities in the 2020 presidential election
00:03:23.860
to have altered the outcome in favor of President Biden?
00:03:29.100
Joining us now, the founder of the Federalist Web magazine, Sean Davis.
00:03:37.340
He's also an entrepreneur, a journalist, a graduate of Texas Tech University,
00:03:42.260
the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.
00:03:44.440
Sean, with those credentials, we're especially delighted to have you here,
00:03:58.740
Will we ever know if there was sufficient fraud and irregularities in 2020
00:04:03.720
to have altered the outcome of a presidential election?
00:04:10.840
and it has to do with what I believe is the root of the problem.
00:04:15.600
So I don't, personally, I do not believe that the balance of power was changed,
00:04:21.620
that vote tallies were changed in the middle of the night,
00:04:24.340
or that voting machines were, you know, changing results and all that.
00:04:29.040
I actually think it was a lot more insidious than that.
00:04:33.320
And it mainly did with how all the rules of how we've done elections were changed,
00:04:39.020
you know, just a couple months before the election,
00:04:41.500
especially with respect to all the mail-in ballots.
00:04:44.420
So we had a system that was not really designed or prepared
00:04:48.560
to be able to handle securely all that influx of ballots.
00:04:55.800
ballots being mailed to just any address they had on file.
00:04:58.600
There was reports all over of people getting, you know, six or seven ballots in their mail.
00:05:03.220
I think the moment that the Democrat Party and the Biden campaign were able to use COVID
00:05:19.140
you don't know if the person who's filling out the ballot
00:05:22.960
I believe that once that happened, not only had the die been cast really for what the results were going to be,
00:05:30.260
but also at that time, you kind of eliminated the ability to be able to go back in
00:05:35.060
and figure out which votes were legal, which votes weren't legal.
00:05:38.320
In some states, you had them throwing away ballot envelopes,
00:05:40.980
so you couldn't even compare the envelope with the ballot that was in there.
00:05:46.100
So I personally don't believe we will ever really know.
00:05:50.360
Maybe, as the left says, it was the most safe and secure election ever.
00:05:54.060
I don't think that's the case, but I think just the nature of how the system was kind of manipulated,
00:05:59.280
we're never going to have in black and white and smoking gun
00:06:02.620
what the numbers were and what they should have been.
00:06:05.280
Yeah, I agree with you on your outlook for resolution and for answers.
00:06:12.540
And I do think the great shame of this is not that fraud was perpetrated.
00:06:21.380
It is that, first, the Republican Party lacked the intelligence and the guts
00:06:28.460
and just simply the sense to be aware of what the Democrats were pulling off
00:06:35.660
in the year preceding that election using, as you said, COVID as a screen and a shield and a fog
00:06:44.280
in which to change election day to election months.
00:06:49.220
And the result was an election with the least oversight, I believe, of any election,
00:06:55.140
certainly in my memory and in my knowledge, ever occurring in this country.
00:07:00.260
Right. And it wasn't just kind of a Democrat versus Republican thing.
00:07:06.020
You also have to look at the role the courts played in here.
00:07:08.780
There were there were indications in Pennsylvania, for example,
00:07:12.660
where the courts just rewrote arbitrarily state law.
00:07:17.600
They rewrote things that were required in the Constitution for how elections have to be run,
00:07:22.600
namely that only the legislature can change these certain things.
00:07:25.220
And you had the courts just go in and say, yeah, we're not going to do any of that.
00:07:32.240
And then when either the Trump campaign or the party goes to the courts on the front end,
00:07:36.880
you had the court saying, well, there's no there's no injury yet.
00:07:41.560
There's no been not been an actual injury because we haven't had the election yet.
00:07:45.160
And then when they went back after the election, when they could show injury,
00:07:49.020
they said, oh, I mean, we already had the election.
00:07:50.680
So your points kind of moot it was the courts took a, you know, a tails.
00:08:00.040
You even had it with the Texas case where you had Texas suing other states and the Supreme
00:08:05.480
Court, which is required by the Constitution to to adjudicate all disputes between states.
00:08:11.540
It doesn't say the Supreme Court can do it if it feels like that's the that's the original
00:08:16.640
court of jurisdiction for disputes between states.
00:08:20.220
And the Supreme Court said, no, we're not going to do it.
00:08:22.680
So it's to me, it's not just Republicans kind of being their typical feckless selves and
00:08:29.460
You had the whole system really engineered against anyone who thought anything that was happening
00:08:36.060
to Trump was maybe bad and might have really bad long term implications for the country.
00:08:40.180
And the Supreme Court had two opportunities to intercede and to, if not be an investigative
00:08:52.100
arm, but at least carry out its role as the supreme adjudicator of law and activities and
00:09:05.700
It was if I think the word feckless moves now from an adjective for for Republicans to the
00:09:16.660
And we kind of see that time and time again with with the Roberts court in particular with
00:09:21.140
Roberts creating this idea in his head that the purpose of the court is to remain legitimate,
00:09:27.600
whatever that means, in the eyes of the public, rather than having the constitutional duty
00:09:32.700
to look at the law and the facts and do what the Constitution requires.
00:09:36.800
So what what happens there with him is what happened in the Obamacare case, where he apparently
00:09:44.200
And then the left wing corporate media bullied him.
00:09:46.860
And then he ends up coming kind of on the back end with this completely tortured, incoherent,
00:09:52.980
internally inconsistent reason why Obamacare was legal.
00:09:56.940
This is a guy who said he can be he's shown that his court can be bullied into doing certain
00:10:03.620
things with certain political outcomes by the corporate left wing media.
00:10:07.240
And I think we saw that same dynamic play out in a lot of these election suits.
00:10:12.740
And I'm not talking about the ones about like Dominion or vote stealing or whatever.
00:10:16.500
I'm talking about very grave constitutional issues about who in this country is allowed to
00:10:25.720
And clearly the legislatures had their authority usurped and the Supreme Court just kind of
00:10:33.660
That's hugely problematic, regardless of which party it helps or hurts.
00:10:39.760
But as you suggest, to be stunned by Justice Roberts' ability to torture both the law and
00:10:50.400
the facts, we should, I suppose, have been stunned.
00:10:54.420
But when you see him become subtly an advanced semanticist who can turn the word tax into a fee
00:11:04.200
and then do double backflips to get to where he wants to be in the outcome of that case, the
00:11:11.980
Obamacare case, it's just a mark on the court that will last, I guess, forever.
00:11:20.680
You know, we're talking about the GOP leadership.
00:11:24.320
It was happy to leave the questions about the 2020 elections.
00:11:28.800
And like so many others in this country, just let it all be buried in the dustbin of history.
00:11:36.260
But suddenly, a man many of us had given up on after two and a half years of investigation,
00:11:43.260
suddenly arises and special counsel John Durham is indicted not only Democratic lawyer David
00:11:52.480
Sussman, Igor Danchico, operative of the Brookings Institution, and Kevin Clinesmith.
00:12:00.000
My goodness, we now have before us a foundation for judging the facts of the origins of Russiagate,
00:12:15.120
Were you amongst those stunned at what we've seen develop over the last days?
00:12:23.140
So I hadn't given up on Durham yet, although I was getting to be a little despondent.
00:12:27.240
He clearly moves very deliberately and at his own pace.
00:12:31.060
What really shocked me about the Sussman indictment, now Sussman was an attorney for the Clinton
00:12:36.620
campaign in DNC, who was part of a scheme to go in and defraud the FBI about a bunch of
00:12:46.660
So the Sussman thing and then the Danchenko one, the Sussman indictment to me came out of
00:12:54.500
I followed every little twist and turn in this thing.
00:12:59.220
Obviously, I knew that he had testified in the House and that he had some kind of role,
00:13:03.580
but he was not at all on my radar as someone who might be in legal jeopardy.
00:13:10.440
So the way that indictment was written, both for his alleged lies to the FBI and the case
00:13:17.940
that it laid out for the whole Alphabank story being a complete Clinton campaign concocted fraud
00:13:23.500
from the beginning, the detail there, I was stunned by.
00:13:27.320
And then he comes with the Igor Danchenko, the indictment.
00:13:30.820
This was the guy who is Christopher Steele, Clinton campaign subcontractor's primary subsource
00:13:35.460
and the alleged source of so many of the sensational claims, which are all fabricated in the dossier.
00:13:41.500
The specificity and the details and the facts in that indictment, including the fact that a Clinton campaign surrogate,
00:13:48.940
a former Clinton presidency appointee, a former State Department official, was one of the people feeding lies to Danchenko.
00:13:56.100
That blew me away because, again, that guy, his name is Charles Dolan, was this Clinton campaign surrogate.
00:14:05.020
So to read that specificity and how Durham kind of told the story of the dossier, it was quite a read.
00:14:14.220
And what I find most interesting is when you look back to when that original Inspector General report came out on the FISA stuff
00:14:21.440
and what they did to Carter Page, Michael Horowitz, the DOJ IG, it said,
00:14:26.360
all this stuff was bad, but I looked into it and I still think the whole Crossfire Hurricane case was properly predicated.
00:14:33.140
And when that came out, you had both Attorney General William Barr and John Durham issue statements saying,
00:14:42.340
And so I think that's the big thing that we're still waiting from Durham.
00:14:47.000
He has already put a marker down saying, I don't think that case, even from the beginning, was properly predicated.
00:14:54.100
And I think each little indictment he's doing is putting meat on the bones of that claim.
00:15:00.200
But I'm looking forward to him telling that entire story, because once that's out,
00:15:05.640
we know that everything from the whole 2016 campaign Russian collusion thing
00:15:14.000
So I'm eager for him to continue and hopefully soon complete his work.
00:15:21.560
I highlighted something that I completely missed, and that is the reference to
00:15:26.140
Biden administration, the president's national security advisor, Jake Sullivan,
00:15:31.440
being referenced in the Durham indictment of the Clinton lawyer, Michael Sussman.
00:15:48.980
So I, you know, two weeks ago, I would have said probably none legally, you know, legal jeopardy.
00:15:56.020
But having seen the Sussman thing and then now reading about what happened in the Dan
00:16:04.240
My inclination is not, because in each of these different indictments and arrests, you had
00:16:11.260
Kevin Kleinsmith, the FBI lawyer who fabricated claims in a FISA document in order to spy on
00:16:18.840
You had Sussman lying to the FBI about who he was actually working for when he brought
00:16:23.780
these fake claims about AltaBank to the FBI, who's working for the Clintons.
00:16:27.500
And then Dan Shinko lying to the feds repeatedly about a whole bunch of stuff.
00:16:31.720
Each one of these allegations has to do with lies that an individual told to a federal law
00:16:41.540
I'm not aware of Jake Sullivan having walked in a bunch of nonsense to the FBI, authenticated
00:16:50.760
Now, if he did that, I think he very much would be in legal jeopardy.
00:16:54.600
And again, I don't know what John Durham knows, and he clearly knows way more than I do.
00:16:59.060
So maybe he is in jeopardy, but my guess is probably not.
00:17:02.000
I think there had to be exposure and interaction between individuals and the FBI in order for them
00:17:11.140
Well, give me, give us your judgment as to how far has John Durham advanced the refutation
00:17:20.160
of the lies of the Democrats, in particular on Capitol Hill, as they went after President
00:17:30.320
Trump, two attempts at impeachment and overthrowing the president from the office.
00:17:37.320
It is now an established wide conspiracy to attack a sitting president of the United States
00:17:45.700
by a principal party of one of the two major parties in this country.
00:17:54.440
And I actually think it's even worse than that.
00:17:56.000
I almost kind of accept that the other side in a campaign or the loser after campaign is
00:18:01.240
going to do whatever they can to screw over the person who beat him.
00:18:04.140
Um, what I find most horrific, distasteful and awful for the long-term survival of the
00:18:12.940
You know, specifically James Comey, uh, who held this completely fake briefing for Trump
00:18:19.580
on allegations, which they all knew were false, uh, for the purpose of leaking it in order
00:18:24.380
to legitimize a document that everyone knew was nonsense and couldn't be legitimized.
00:18:29.120
Um, so you have Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Clinesmith, that to me is absolutely horrific.
00:18:37.680
Um, but to your question, you know, what, what does this do to kind of cement the reality
00:18:43.140
Well, to those of us who follow the facts, it's, I mean, it's a, it's a completely damning
00:18:49.260
But the problem is, you know, you don't control what most of the country hears in the news.
00:18:55.920
Um, that, that job is held by the New York times and the Washington post, uh, NBC, CBS,
00:19:03.880
They're not telling the truth about what's happening.
00:19:06.200
They spent years bleeding about collusion and all these allegations.
00:19:09.380
And the second we learned that all these allegations were nonsense, they're nowhere to
00:19:13.520
So as far as, you know, the long-term public perception of what actually happened, uh, I
00:19:19.120
don't know if it's going to change or not because of the power of these corrupt media
00:19:23.540
companies have to just lie to their audience for the sole purpose of helping the Democrat
00:19:31.900
And for, uh, what I call the corporate left-wing media, uh, I, I don't think most people, uh,
00:19:39.060
really appreciate the degree to which this is a, uh, a corporate enterprise, uh, whether
00:19:46.280
it's, uh, AT&T, it's ownership of CNN, uh, Comcast, it's ownership of NBC and all of
00:19:53.660
its, uh, uh, uh, ancillary, uh, networks, including in MSNBC and CNBC and the list goes
00:20:01.640
on or CBS Viacom and CBS news, Disney and ABC, uh, Jeff Bezos, the world's second richest
00:20:11.200
man, uh, ownership of the Washington post, Carlos Slim and others who have concentrated
00:20:22.140
This is, these are oligarchs in control of our principal news media in this country.
00:20:27.980
And people go about their days thinking blissfully, this is an independent, uh, press.
00:20:37.160
So much of the information we're, we're fed is controlled by tech oligarchs.
00:20:43.940
If you say things he and his little minions don't like on Facebook, they're going to ban
00:20:48.660
For example, we have the Kyle Rittenhouse trial in Wisconsin.
00:20:51.060
If you tried to go and post a link to his, uh, GoFundMe to help fund his defense, and by
00:20:57.000
the way, everyone in this country is entitled to defend themselves in courts of law.
00:21:01.100
They're entitled to have attorneys and to be able to pay them.
00:21:08.900
And it's not like the Zuckerberg is some disinterested observer.
00:21:12.500
You had him throwing out 450 million some odd dollars, uh, during the 2020 election to
00:21:18.620
privatize election offices in key States and counties, uh, throughout the country.
00:21:24.160
You had his people going in to various election bureaus, finding ballots that they thought
00:21:29.720
would be for Democrats and might have some problems with them and going and curing them
00:21:34.200
and leaving alone all the ballots that they thought might go to Republicans alone to be
00:21:38.960
So you have these oligarchs buying up control of our election offices, uh, controlling the
00:21:48.060
And it's certainly not the country I grew up in.
00:21:50.600
And I know it's not the country you grew up in.
00:21:52.240
I remember on the playground when I was growing up and you'd get in arguments and fights and
00:21:56.660
kids would say, if someone got mad at him, well, I can say whatever I want.
00:22:00.980
I don't feel like it's the same country anymore.
00:22:03.700
Well, and I'm sure you and I also, uh, suffer, uh, have suffered the consequences of, uh, trying
00:22:12.120
to speak the truth as often as we, uh, uh, felt, uh, obliged or, uh, are responsible.
00:22:19.060
Uh, the fact is, you know, I've gotten used to, uh, to consequences when I speak truth.
00:22:28.220
And the, the fact of the matter is, uh, there's a, there's a little ray of sunshine over at
00:22:39.300
Uh, and that's Eric Wimple, uh, the, uh, Wimple, uh, the Washington post media critic
00:22:45.740
actually suggesting that those who use the dossier in this business, the journalists, uh,
00:22:53.400
fine folks from the mother Jones, MSNBC, you know, Rachel Maddow, the McClatchy newspapers.
00:23:01.680
Uh, it, it, it's really stunning that he acknowledged the problems created for those, uh, papers and
00:23:13.260
Uh, I give him great credit because he says they have a lot of, uh, I will paraphrase.
00:23:20.380
They've got a lot to account for your, your reaction.
00:23:24.860
I mean, these, these are institutions and individuals who received Pulitzer prizes, the
00:23:29.540
highest award in all of journalism, uh, for their reporting on Russian collusion.
00:23:33.760
And it turns out the reporting was all nonsense.
00:23:37.820
Everything they reported were lies fed to them, uh, by partisan operatives, either in the government
00:23:44.420
Uh, it tells me that the spirit of Walter Durante, uh, is alive and well, if these people, if these
00:23:50.680
institutions had any shame, any sense of ethics or self-respect, they would return those Pulitzers
00:23:57.040
immediately and they would burn every single source that fed them lies for years and years
00:24:03.120
And it's telling to me that not a single one of them has done that.
00:24:10.460
They, they should be launching huge investigative teams right now to dig in to, uh, Russiagate
00:24:18.920
the origins of the Russia collusion hoax, uh, and renew their efforts to, to satisfy the
00:24:27.460
public's right to know and to correct, correct the history, at least the last five years of
00:24:33.340
Uh, I think that's really their obligation here.
00:24:37.620
And then they'll never do it because they're not actually journalistic organizations.
00:24:41.100
They're Democrats, super PACs with bylines, broadcast licenses.
00:24:45.080
And Sean Davis, co-founder of a terrific, terrific, uh, web magazine called the Federalist.
00:24:53.300
And it, uh, it's worthy of the title, its content and its energy and, uh, all that it does to,
00:25:14.100
Stay with us for more of the great America show.
00:25:20.320
If you and I have anything to say about it, but under the Biden administration, we, well,
00:25:26.020
we've got a little less freedom to say anything at all.
00:25:28.920
At certain times, it's clear that President Biden and Vice President Harris are on a course toward
00:25:36.040
They're authoritarian by nature and training and would prefer to rule by edict or fiat issuing
00:25:42.940
mandate after mandate, executive order after executive order without, of course, justification
00:25:52.060
Their legislative agenda is simply a catastrophe for many Americans.
00:25:57.840
Biden has now signed $3 trillion of spending into law.
00:26:02.060
And of course, no one knows what's precisely in that spending legislation, but we do know
00:26:07.100
that it will significantly add to our already $30 trillion national debt.
00:26:13.160
Biden and Harris have put this country on track to be a debtor nation forever.
00:26:18.500
However, Biden administration's withdrawal from Afghanistan is simply an outrage.
00:26:23.920
It's an insult for everything the country stands for.
00:26:27.380
His inability to speak coherently or find his way into or out of a room without assistance
00:26:36.040
But after the climate meeting fiasco, he's become a global laughingstock, appearing to fall
00:26:41.380
asleep in the midst of those meetings he had told all of us were so important.
00:26:46.220
And then it was passing wind, apparently in the presence of the royal family.
00:26:53.400
Kamala could hardly speak of anything else, we have been told.
00:26:57.920
As Mr. Biden would say, come on, man, give us all a break.
00:27:05.260
The ineptitude and rank ideological fanaticism of the Biden administration is, of course, ignored
00:27:11.700
by nearly all of the left-wing media, but not the American people.
00:27:16.660
The most recent USA Today poll shows Biden's approval rating has plummeted to 38 percent.
00:27:25.760
And the American people are quite obviously fed up with his antics and inadequacies.
00:27:31.880
And as bad as his poll numbers are, his vice president's numbers are even worse.
00:27:36.840
Vice President Harris's approval rating in the same USA Today poll plunged to, are you ready,
00:27:43.540
28 percent, a historic low for any vice president in the modern era.
00:27:49.740
She was the least popular Democratic presidential candidate back in 2020.
00:27:54.520
And now she's even more unpopular than her unpopular boss.
00:27:59.280
We don't have to ask why those numbers have plunged.
00:28:02.800
They seem committed to destroying the nation with their feverish advocacy of Marxist radicalism
00:28:08.880
and the outright lies that flow constantly from the Biden White House.
00:28:14.220
They don't like to talk much to the news media, not even the left-wing news media.
00:28:19.400
But fortunately, they can't hide from all of us.
00:28:21.980
And amongst those investigating the Biden administration, their open border policies,
00:28:26.660
their open arms to human smugglers that will result in 2 million illegal immigrants entering
00:28:34.880
And of course, investigations into the Russia collusion hoax.
00:28:39.400
The organization Judicial Watch is prominent among those organizations committed to discovering
00:28:48.080
Judicial Watch is led by its president, Tom Fitton.
00:28:53.360
And Tom, it's great to have you with us here and to talk once again.
00:29:00.640
President Biden at 38 percent and Kamala Harris at 28 percent.
00:29:11.980
And those numbers are, despite having all of the big media in his back pocket, Lou,
00:29:18.300
first of all, it's good to be back with you again.
00:29:21.860
Yeah, and I was glad to hear your opening statement, which was pithy and honest as always.
00:29:29.320
You know, he's come in as one of the weakest presidents in recent memory in the sense that
00:29:33.740
you have half of the country question his election.
00:29:41.000
As you highlight, he's got all these cognitive challenges.
00:29:43.860
And he's got all these personal corruption issues.
00:29:48.200
What he's governing is if he's Ronald Reagan in his second term.
00:29:54.940
And so rather than kind of going for big majorities in terms of policies, he's taking this hard
00:30:02.800
turn to the left and the American people don't like it.
00:30:06.820
A hard turn to the left, and it certainly couldn't be much more left wing than pushing critical race theory,
00:30:17.640
driving restorative justice and psychoeducation, as Judicial Watch pointed out in Montgomery County schools.
00:30:25.300
It's stunning what they are up to, what the Democratic Party is up to, what the Marxist left is insisting on
00:30:34.760
and insinuating into schools, into government, into education.
00:30:43.160
I mean, you know, taking it one step back, you've got Biden also having to manage the kind of the corrupt
00:30:48.320
corporatist wing of the Democratic Party, which is bipartisan in nature, as you know, Lou,
00:30:55.920
And to that end, you've got this fanaticism behind this repackaged Marxism known as critical race theory,
00:31:06.620
The real pandemic schoolchildren we should be worrying about in terms of schoolchildren is critical race theory.
00:31:13.000
And, you know, call it whatever you will, critical theory, critical race theory, climate justice.
00:31:19.000
Every left wing narrative is essentially has Marx behind it.
00:31:26.060
And they're lying because we're getting the documents showing that it is they're pursuing this fundamentally racist,
00:31:36.580
I mean, in Montgomery County, you're pointing out in Maryland, one of the I'm still shaking my head at this one.
00:31:42.980
Montgomery County is the biggest school district in Maryland, for those of you not in the area.
00:31:47.440
And they've got this recommendation that teachers should be pushing anti-racist baby, right, by Abram Kendi,
00:31:55.480
one of the big promoters of critical race theory.
00:31:57.740
And they said it's great for babies to toddlers, to three-year-olds.
00:32:13.440
So, you know, this fanaticism, and as you pointed out, the totalitarianism of this movement knows no bounds
00:32:22.160
because, you know, it's in the word, totalitarian, it's total.
00:32:30.300
Your investigation into Fauci and the relationship with the CCP in China
00:32:36.860
and the public health agencies there that are the analogs to our own,
00:32:42.860
whether it be the CDC, the NIH, or virology labs like the one in Wuhan,
00:32:48.840
there is obviously a great deal of communication, a great deal of networking and concerted efforts
00:32:59.180
in the placement of Chinese officials and international health organizations, including WHO.
00:33:10.800
Well, you know, let's go back to the beginning.
00:33:12.920
WHO is an international organization, like most international transnational organizations.
00:33:18.800
They're controlled by the bad guys, and in this case, China.
00:33:23.240
So one of the first things that happened after it became known, that this China virus,
00:33:28.640
was WHO started collaborating with all the various countries, including China,
00:33:34.300
and they issued a press release on it, we found, on the international response to COVID.
00:33:40.360
And the release, it was noted in the documents, went out of its way to praise China.
00:33:50.700
And then later, as they're investigating China, China starts requiring, it looks like in the documents,
00:33:58.440
additional confidentiality terms for our government officials, Fauci's deputy, to go and investigate China.
00:34:07.200
And then when you look further back, you see this collaboration with China.
00:34:12.980
It's just like, it's jaw-dropping in the breadth and scope and length of how far back it's been going
00:34:21.820
in terms of the Chinese research agencies and research entities working with government money,
00:34:29.700
our government money, to do all sorts of biologic research, including, it's now confirmed,
00:34:36.920
thanks to pressure from Judicial Watch litigation, gate of function research.
00:34:41.860
And, I mean, when you see documents, I didn't know, did you know, Lou, that Fauci's agency had a person in Beijing
00:34:49.880
who was charged with monitoring what was going on there, including visiting Wuhan often.
00:34:57.900
And they were very nervous about what was going on in Wuhan.
00:35:01.520
They've got a spy operation running against Wuhan while giving them money at the same time.
00:35:06.720
Only, you know, Fauci's got a lot to answer for, I tell you.
00:35:14.960
He just straightforwardly and bald-facedly lied to Senate committees, in particular, Senator Rand Paul,
00:35:24.620
who challenged him straightforwardly and directly on the relationship between Fauci and the Chinese,
00:35:32.940
the NIH, the CDC, and those public health agencies in China, and the virology labs in Wuhan and around China itself.
00:35:44.540
Interesting in the material that, all of it's interesting, but it just drew my eye.
00:35:51.760
The reference in your FOIA on HHS regarding Fauci on the contracts there,
00:35:59.600
that they helped raise, quote, raise China's voice of governance
00:36:05.260
by placing representatives from China on important international councils
00:36:10.260
as high-level commitment from China, end quote.
00:36:13.700
It seems like a blathering rationalization suggesting that China was giving something up
00:36:20.260
in order for its officials, Chinese officials, to be placed on the World Health Organization,
00:36:30.060
Oh, well, you're kind of getting, there's a key detail that I think you may be missing,
00:36:36.600
is that this is the Gates Foundation helping China.
00:36:39.560
So we've got our people there talking with the Gates Foundation in China
00:36:43.360
about how the Gates Foundation is advocating for China on these,
00:36:47.720
as you point out, WHO and organizations like that.
00:36:50.840
I don't know what else you would describe as being international agencies
00:36:57.340
So you've got Gates people, the foundation, according to this government document,
00:37:03.600
as I said, Fauci's woman in China was reporting back on her meeting with the Gates Foundation,
00:37:20.440
But when they're admitting to government officials,
00:37:22.900
hey, we're actually advocating for Chinese government officials internationally.
00:37:30.560
And of course, the big media doesn't want to cover this.
00:37:40.700
Obviously, it's even worse during the Biden administration because Fauci is now seen as an avatar for Biden.
00:37:50.660
And to me, what is striking is that the Chinese have demanded that representation on WHO with the express complicity,
00:38:03.000
I would say assistance, but it's complicity from our public health agencies,
00:38:08.220
including Fauci, the NIH, the CDC, and the list goes on,
00:38:13.680
to the United Nations and placing the top officials of the WHO are all Chinese or Chinese-sponsored representatives of their policies.
00:38:29.220
And no one wants to report on this except for Judicial Watch and a handful of other folks.
00:38:36.020
Well, it's pretty clear that any biologic research the Chinese were doing was hand in glove with Fauci's agency.
00:38:45.880
I mean, when you look at the documents we've uncovered going back years and years,
00:38:50.740
you have to wonder what the Chinese were doing that didn't have government funding from U.S. taxpayers.
00:38:56.300
And when you look at the nature of this sort of biologic research,
00:39:01.860
I don't know if I'm using a technical term, but it's someone I can pronounce, which is biologic.
00:39:06.020
But you've got to wonder, you know, who's fooling whom here in the sense that is this defense-related work?
00:39:20.300
It would seem to me you don't want to providing expertise in this area to our adversaries,
00:39:30.300
And, you know, as we've seen more recently, there's no doubt it was gate of function.
00:39:37.800
And striking is that in the midst of all of this, during the Trump administration, of course,
00:39:44.340
nothing was bolder or brighter or more animated than the Hillary Clinton-inspired Russia collusion
00:39:52.420
conspiracy with the deep state, with the law enforcement agencies, federal law enforcement agencies driving.
00:40:01.300
So here's, on one hand, you have the deep state represented by the public health agencies and Dr. Fauci,
00:40:10.360
working with the communist Chinese, but at the same time,
00:40:14.240
doing everything they can to smear a sitting president with charges of collusion that were utterly baseless charges of collusion with Russia.
00:40:26.540
It's a breathtaking irony and dichotomy, don't you think?
00:40:30.780
Yeah, I mean, you know, you had, and on top of that, you had Biden's personal relationship with China through Hunter,
00:40:41.960
where Hunter went on a trip to China on the vice president's plane at the time and engaged in business dealings that by the accounts of Hunter's laptop
00:40:54.160
and other independent witnesses benefited Joe Biden directly and personally.
00:41:01.760
So, you know, and, you know, when you look at it, it's pretty clear that everything they were accusing Trump of doing,
00:41:09.940
Having compromised business relationships with foreign countries, using the powers of government to,
00:41:16.400
and using the powers of government to advance those interests.
00:41:19.280
You know, the irony with Trump, I mean, with Obama, the Obama administration,
00:41:25.000
I mean, just look at how many countries they work with just to go after Trump.
00:41:28.300
You had the Australians, you had the UK, you had Ukraine, you had Russia.
00:41:37.120
And, of course, you had all of the intelligence agencies in the United States all going after Trump.
00:41:44.940
I'm glad to see Durham finally getting off his duff and doing something.
00:41:54.040
But, boy, are they important, implicating the Democrat law firm.
00:42:00.840
And a Brookings Institution hack, if I can put it that way, who was a foundation for the farcical dossier,
00:42:16.480
a fraudulent effort created by the Hillary Clinton campaign and maneuvered through to the Justice
00:42:25.800
Department itself and the FBI by the friends of Hillary, if not Bill.
00:42:33.300
Yeah, the latest Durham indictment, you know, as alleged, confirms that the author of the dossier,
00:42:40.600
the key salacious falsehoods against Trump, is a liar.
00:42:51.200
Like, for instance, Trump visited the Moscow Hotel, he learned.
00:42:59.000
He pretended that every rumor and allegation he heard was fact.
00:43:04.580
And all of that ended up in these FISA warrants.
00:43:08.960
And so what I think is interesting here is that we've got, as you point out, the Trump,
00:43:13.440
the Clinton law firm, one of the two top lawyers, the guy who wrote the dossier for Christopher
00:43:19.420
Steele, who was on the payroll of the Clinton campaign.
00:43:22.520
So you've got the Clinton campaign really dead to rights here.
00:43:26.940
And the question is, how high up will Durham go?
00:43:29.620
But the next big step, it seems to me, is what is Durham going to do about the other side
00:43:36.140
Which who, and if I'm the defense attorneys for Sussman and Don Jenko, I'd be like, well,
00:43:43.160
you know, how could we lie to our co-conspirators?
00:43:45.180
They all knew what we were up to, that we were lying on them.
00:43:49.860
And we all liked it because we were helping Hillary and going after Trump.
00:43:54.200
And so the question is, is Durham going to go after the FBI and DOJ for engaging with
00:43:58.900
these folks and pushing this, knowing it was a big, it was a smear and a falsity.
00:44:04.080
Yeah, we know, we understand clearly the connections within the FBI and the Justice Department and
00:44:13.440
the upper echelons of the Democratic apparatus in Washington, D.C.
00:44:17.800
They were working hand in glove to do the bidding of Hillary Clinton's campaign.
00:44:33.920
We know that they were framing the national security advisor of an elected president.
00:44:43.160
You know, in his first month in office, for crying out loud.
00:44:46.500
Uh, this is, it's, it's, it's breathtaking that we're still having this discussion on one
00:44:51.420
hand, uh, that it's necessary, but on the other, it is an, it's an extraordinary gift
00:44:59.280
that Durham has delivered, which is a reopening of, uh, these issues that the left has tried to
00:45:07.800
bury and to cover up and to just move on from, uh, now open because of that, uh, that indictment
00:45:16.080
and all that has unfolded around it, uh, we're, we're able to talk about a president who was
00:45:22.760
impeached not once, but twice who went through an almost two year special counsel investigation,
00:45:28.620
all because of the Hillary Clinton campaign and it's fraudulent, uh, efforts to overthrow
00:45:35.320
a president, uh, in concert with the deep state and the democratic party.
00:45:45.180
And unfortunately the Republicans gave up on the corruption issue, um, after Joe Biden came in.
00:45:51.080
Is there anything they haven't given up on just if, because I, I've missed it.
00:45:55.340
If there's anything that they have not given up on.
00:45:59.980
Well, they're, they're riding the CRT wave, whether it'll be substantive, um, work.
00:46:05.540
There is an open question, uh, but, uh, you know, Republicans win despite themselves.
00:46:11.760
I should say Republican leaders win despite themselves because, you know, in my view, the
00:46:16.620
Republican leadership has zero interest in these issues.
00:46:19.180
And that's one of the reasons we're talking about it five years from that five years after
00:46:25.400
I mean, we couldn't even get the Republican house and Senate to honestly investigate the
00:46:34.980
misconduct of, in theory, they're the, the opposite party, even if, even when Trump was
00:46:43.500
running the white house and the administration, that's how awful it was.
00:46:50.320
Uh, one of the reasons there were so many problems in the early days of the, uh, Trump
00:46:55.820
white house is because the former head of the Republican national committee rights previous
00:47:00.460
was his chief of staff representing the establishment of the Republican party.
00:47:05.420
And if by extension, a good margin of that membership would be never Trumpers.
00:47:11.460
And currently the Ronna McDaniel, who is the head of the RNC, who assured everybody that
00:47:19.120
she had 2 million people in the field and that had everything under control and was
00:47:24.140
rolled, uh, you know, like a, uh, a boy scout at a, uh, you know, a boxing camp.
00:47:31.140
It was just, I mean, it's pitiful what we've witnessed.
00:47:34.640
And as you point out on CRT, what did it take for Ronna McDaniel and the RNC to take up
00:47:41.660
It took Virginia and Youngkin victory there because school boards and parents decided
00:47:54.380
With Terry McAuliffe representing the Marxist left saying, you know, parents really don't
00:47:59.840
have any place telling schools what they want their, their children to be taught.
00:48:04.480
I mean, it's outrageous trying to turn our heritage upside down in public education.
00:48:11.020
You know, and what I like about the Virginia story, um, is that that CRT issue was organic.
00:48:20.420
It was the people took the lead and politicians either, you know, got with the program in the
00:48:27.800
case of Youngkin or they were rolled over in the case of McAuliffe.
00:48:31.800
And it wasn't because of brilliant Republican strategy.
00:48:36.600
They, they were outraged and, uh, there was a wave as a result.
00:48:41.180
So a lot of this, as I say, is, you know, are, are we going to have leaders that reflect
00:48:46.300
the, you know, kind of taking the bigger picture here?
00:48:49.240
And I'm going to advise politicians and vote parties because I'm concerned, you know, I'm
00:48:53.080
concerned that the communists are ruining a major political party.
00:48:57.500
I mean, it's in our interest to make sure the Democrats are just regular liberals as
00:49:01.780
We don't want that in a Republic is that, you know, do we have leaders in the political
00:49:06.240
class that reflect the will of the people or are they going to be antagonistic?
00:49:11.160
And, uh, you know, and I think to the degree they're able to reflect and, and in good faith,
00:49:20.400
And if they're seen on the wrong side, they get shellacked as we saw in Virginia.
00:49:26.240
Well, when you say you're, I don't know how much comfort I take from what I'm inferring
00:49:33.340
you're saying, which is you're worried about the democratic party turning into a bunch of
00:49:38.540
Uh, I, I, I'm more worried about the democratic party that is already led by Marxist leftists
00:49:45.260
and are absolutely antithetical in every part of their ideology, their philosophy, their
00:49:52.760
operating mechanisms as a political party and structure.
00:50:05.400
Are trying to rest control of school boards and, uh, from, and, and public education from
00:50:12.360
the hands of the parents and the people they elect to run local schools and education,
00:50:19.620
uh, it's, it's bald face, uh, a, a, a counter and, uh, a counter attack, uh, within, uh, the
00:50:32.700
It's a revolutionary period we're in and, you know, when they see for the communists, they
00:50:37.780
don't see a repudiation, uh, last week, whether it be in New York or Virginia or Pennsylvania
00:50:44.020
or anywhere else, New Jersey, they see it as, uh, you know, when they, when elections
00:50:48.640
like that happen, they see it as confirmation that America needs, the system needs to be
00:50:53.200
overturned because the people aren't allowed to have a voice.
00:50:58.740
We can't have objective testing because that they say that is racist, uh, and unfair,
00:51:05.040
which is, you know, pure balderdash, but people haven't got the guts to say directly
00:51:10.500
that this is nonsense and that it's got to stop.
00:51:14.900
I mean, I love some of the language that was tortured in the last few days.
00:51:19.300
Barack Obama says Donald Trump's nationalism failed the world on climate change.
00:51:27.840
Kind of moronic nonsense is that his nationalism it's populism.
00:51:33.060
And that populism means that the people will have power and demonstrate, uh, that power
00:51:38.820
just as they did in Virginia and almost in New Jersey, AOC comes out with more rhetorical
00:51:48.620
She says Republicans using woke the expression woke as quote derogatory euphemism for civil rights.
00:51:59.960
They're putting, they're putting out nonsense and spewing what is nothing more than, uh,
00:52:06.440
you know, asinine gibberish trying to take away accountability, uh, from them, from themselves.
00:52:15.320
Well, to outsiders, it looks crazy too, but if you're a communist, it makes perfect sense.
00:52:20.040
For instance, when they say, you know, the new Lieutenant governor, Ms. Sears in Virginia,
00:52:26.300
who's, um, African-American conservative, you know, they imply she's a white supremacist.
00:52:35.320
I don't laugh at it, to be honest with you, Tom, but I think it's pure propaganda.
00:52:38.700
It's an insult to her and everybody who voted for her and her, her service to the country
00:52:49.260
That is internally consistent for the communist approach.
00:52:53.520
We don't understand how they can call a black person a white supremacist, but for the communists,
00:52:58.900
they believe unless you're with the program, you're the enemy.
00:53:05.960
And, uh, by the way, they're making lots of enemies.
00:53:09.040
They're called the American people and they see in real terms, in vivid terms, what they
00:53:21.960
The scales have dropped from our eyes and we know exactly what the left is trying to do.
00:53:28.520
And if the Republican party led by Ronald McDaniel doesn't have, and Mitch McConnell, of course,
00:53:33.860
Mitch McConnell, who is cheering the bipartisan spending legislation, the infrastructure bill,
00:53:39.560
like some sort of, I mean, his fraudulence is overwhelming, frankly, but the Republican
00:53:48.880
I mean, I really believe that, but you get the last word here today, Tom.
00:53:52.620
Well, you know, all we can do is what we can do.
00:53:55.520
And, you know, this is, this is my critique of my allies in the house and the Senate, our
00:54:02.840
It's like, are you doing everything you can do to save the Republic against, against this
00:54:08.460
And, you know, Lord knows judicial watch is doing what we can do and trying to do more.
00:54:13.600
Uh, but I tell you, this is a significant threat, uh, to our Republic.
00:54:19.600
We didn't even get to the, to the border crisis.
00:54:22.360
Uh, but, uh, we need the leadership to step up.
00:54:25.280
And if the leadership won't step up, we need new leadership.
00:54:30.780
And, uh, as to the issues we didn't get to today, I hope you'll be back with us soon
00:54:35.560
and often, uh, here on the, uh, the great America show.
00:54:39.500
Uh, this podcast is dedicated to those issues you hold dearest as well.
00:54:45.720
It's great talking with you and I wish you all the best, my friend.
00:54:51.320

00:55:01.940
Join us again tomorrow for the great America podcast.
