1
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: Line from vau Hartbeiner and the Crossroads of America. It's

2
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 1: Tony Katz today.

3
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: It was about six years ago today that I decided

4
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 2: I'm going to give up my businesses, sell them all,

5
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 2: run for office, run through the United States Senate. Here

6
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 2: I am sitting in front of you, six years later saying,

7
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 2: who the do you think you were for doing that?

8
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 3: It is a total disgrace what he did to this country.

9
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 2: And if my Democratic colleagues are standing there defending you,

10
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 2: I hope the voters the United States of America watched

11
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: the clips of every one of you doting on a

12
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,639
Speaker 2: guy who was more interested in being a celebrity than

13
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 2: saving American people.

14
00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 3: So this went well up. Oh that Senator Bernie Moreno

15
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 3: of Ohio going at Anthony Fauci, who was called to testify,

16
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 3: write subpoena to testify in front of committee chaired by

17
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:20,559
Speaker 3: by Rand Paul, and from Moreno asked you turn around

18
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 3: to the people behind you, all those doctors, all these

19
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 3: people who got dismissed and told they couldn't speak and

20
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 3: weren't allowed to say this, and weren't allowed to do that,

21
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 3: and oh they got attacked for this, and they got

22
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 3: ashamed and careers ruined. Would you apologize to them? Well,

23
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 3: you got anything to say to them? And then of

24
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 3: course he we edited that up pretty well for you,

25
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 3: Tony Katz. Tony Katz today, guys, a pleasure to be

26
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: with you, man, oh man, this hearing, and we said

27
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 3: this was possible, so we kind of called it that

28
00:01:55,120 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 3: Fauci took the fifth. Fauci took the Now there is

29
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 3: a question as to whether or not he can because

30
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 3: he'd already been pardoned. So I would argue that, yes,

31
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 3: he's able to do this. I could, however, be wrong

32
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 3: about whether or not there's a difference between the courtroom

33
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 3: and what you're doing in front of a congressional hearing.

34
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 3: This was the Center Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee,

35
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 3: and whether or not he is, in the words of

36
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 3: Center Ran Paul engaging an obstruction of investigation. And for

37
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 3: those in the chatroom as we live stream on YouTube

38
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 3: and Rumble and Twitter and Facebook, it was one hundred

39
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 3: and eleven times. I believe producer land and kept count

40
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 3: he took off his shoes and everything to make that happen.

41
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 3: Did I say hello, I'm Tony Katz to show as

42
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 3: Tony kats today. Look for us on YouTube and rumble,

43
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 3: Tony Katz, Twitter, Tony Katz and of course Facebook, Tony

44
00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 3: Katz Radio. This is how it started, started with Senator

45
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 3: Ran Paul just going right at it, right at it

46
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 3: to Anthony Fauci. Of course, this is about COVID and

47
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 3: the lies told and the release of the information from

48
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 3: his from his private diary and everything. All this was submitted.

49
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 3: He knew he was lying to us in America. We

50
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 3: the people repeatedly did it anyway, origins of COVID, mass conversations,

51
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 3: a litany of things. While he was so impressed with

52
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 3: himself all the times he can be on television lying

53
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 3: about shutting down schools. He did it. He did all

54
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 3: of it. He is the one who lied repeatedly. And

55
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 3: this is how Senator Paul, and this is how he

56
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 3: started the conversation.

57
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 4: Theory that the virus arose naturally, while privately he was

58
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 4: well aware of a mountain of evidence suggesting the virus

59
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 4: originated in the lab.

60
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 5: The American people deserve answers.

61
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 4: The American people deserve to know why dangerous research was

62
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 4: funded by NIAID in its hotalitarian country in a lab

63
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 4: that lacked acceptable safety standards. The decision to fund dangerous

64
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 4: gain a function research in Wuhan, China, will likely go

65
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 4: down in history as perhaps one of the worst public

66
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 4: health decisions. Frankly, the American people deserve an apology. I

67
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 4: hope today doctor Fauci will come clean. Admit it was

68
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 4: a mistake to fund dangerous research in China, Admit that

69
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 4: the risk of this dangerous research exceeded any possible benefits.

70
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 4: Ask forgiveness, and pledge to help our government devise safeguards so.

71
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 5: A man made emidemic never happens again.

72
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 4: Instead of an apology, you have for years avoided responsibility

73
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 4: regarding the lockdowns.

74
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 5: You argue that you did not personally.

75
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 4: Issue every lockdown order, close every school, or impose every mandate,

76
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 4: but officials across the country invoked your authority to justify

77
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 4: these decisions, and you presented your recommendations not as judgments

78
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 4: open to debate, but as dictates of science itself. Your

79
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 4: own words demonstrate that you understood the influence you exercised.

80
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 4: On March fourteenth, twenty twenty, you wrote that the task

81
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 4: Force recommendations were driven.

82
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 5: By me, yourself, deb and CDC.

83
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 4: The next day you wrote that you had convinced Mayor

84
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 4: Bill Deblasio to close the New York City schools, so

85
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 4: you were involved. That same night, Governor Gavin Newsom's chief

86
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 4: of staff told you that the governor had decided to

87
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 4: close California schools, bars, and restaurants after watching you on television. Presidents, governors, mayors,

88
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 4: school boards, corporations, and congress all bare responsibility for the

89
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 4: decisions they made. The COVID lockdown, however, could never have

90
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 4: been inflicted without you aiding and abetting the crime. Children

91
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 4: lost years of education, Small businesses built over a lifetime disappeared.

92
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 4: Patients delayed cancer screenings and other medical care. Families were

93
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 4: separated from dying relatives. Workers were ordered to accept a

94
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 4: medical procedure or lose their jobs. Worship, assembly, employment, education,

95
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 4: and travel were restricted.

96
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 5: In the name of science.

97
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 4: While you did not impose every restriction, you used your

98
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 4: public authority to justify them. While you concluded publicly that

99
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 4: COVID occurred naturally, your private record tells a different story.

100
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 4: In early twenty twenty, your handpicked virologists warned that the virus.

101
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 5: Appeared to have been manipulated in the lab.

102
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 4: In a conference call concerning the origin of the virus,

103
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 4: all but to the participants believed deliberate insertion was possible.

104
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 5: Your concern was not merely theoretical.

105
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 4: That same week, you let an urge effort to determine

106
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 4: whether your own agency had funded the research related to

107
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 4: these experiments that were now under suspicion.

108
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 5: Hours later, your assistant.

109
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 4: Reported that the wu want experiments had indeed been reviewed

110
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 4: and approved by the NIH. Those were not the actions

111
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 4: of officials who believe that a research related to origin

112
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 4: was an absurd conspiracy theory. They were the actions of

113
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 4: officials urgently trying to determine whether their agency funding was

114
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 4: connected to the research under discussion.

115
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 3: Now he's four minutes in, three minutes in. He's not screaming,

116
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 3: he's not yelling. He is just laying it out in totality,

117
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,559
Speaker 3: this is what you did. You lied. Now. I want

118
00:07:53,800 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 3: that peace right there to be held in your head

119
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 3: when people bring up Trump was the president, Why didn't

120
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 3: Trump do this? Why did' Trump do that? If you

121
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 3: are looking to alleged experts who are not sharing with

122
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 3: you the full story, how possibly could you have the

123
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 3: complete information. I am one of the people who wholeheartedly

124
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 3: agrees wholeheartedly agrees that one of the worst things we

125
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 3: did in the country is we turned over power of

126
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 3: the nation, control of the nation to unelected doctors, to

127
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 3: these health professionals who did not have the whole of

128
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 3: the country's interest in heart because they don't play that way.

129
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 3: They think, of one thing, here's what the science tells us.

130
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 3: But we didn't even get that. What we got were

131
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 3: ideological answers, not medical answers, and unwillingness to engage all

132
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 3: of the data. And then we of course know that

133
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 3: the data we got wasn't complete. So if I have

134
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 3: President Trump president of the United States, the buck stops

135
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 3: there and all that jazz getting incomplete data, false data lies.

136
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 3: Can I ask, why can't we say, of the liar,

137
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 3: look what you did. Why can't we do that? Why

138
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 3: can't we say that? Shouldn't we say that? The answer is,

139
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 3: of course we should, in every single way we should.

140
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 3: Donald Trump the president. Yes, why in the world would

141
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 3: anybody support a man like Anthony Fauci knowing clearly without

142
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:54,719
Speaker 3: debate that he lied. This is part one of the argument. Now,

143
00:09:54,760 --> 00:10:01,079
Speaker 3: part two of the argument has to go to media,

144
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 3: which has now been seen time and again not to

145
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 3: be engaged in journalism. Don't ask for respect. You're not journalists.

146
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 3: You never looked into Russia, Russia, Russia. You just believed

147
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 3: Adam Schiff. You never looked into Joe Biden's mental decline.

148
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 3: You just believe Krin John Pierre. You never looked into COVID.

149
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 3: You never asked a question, You never talked to the

150
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 3: other doctors. You just believed Anthony Fauci and use that

151
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 3: as cover to be lazy because it was never about

152
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 3: journalism and it was always about narrative. America has every

153
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 3: right to be angry, disgusted, to want someone's head, but

154
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 3: this is the justices. We don't do that here. You

155
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 3: want to engage and just outright violence. You got to

156
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 3: be a member of the Democratic Socialists of Antifa, of

157
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 3: the left. What Senator Ran Paul is laying out here

158
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 3: is clear is concise is focused deckted.

159
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:03,599
Speaker 6: To the pandemic.

160
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 5: You could not hide that your agency had funded.

161
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 4: The Wuhan research, or your long history of defending gain

162
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 4: to function research. The only alternative left was to argue

163
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 4: that COVID nineteen did not originate in the Wuhan lab.

164
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,719
Speaker 4: You were not a detached observer. You had an institutional

165
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 4: interest in the public believing that federally funded research had

166
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 4: nothing to do with the band. It was a conflict

167
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 4: of interest. From the very beginning, the authors of the

168
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 4: Proximal Origin of SARS COVID two privately had serious doubts

169
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 4: about a natural origin. Within days, though, they flipped and

170
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 4: they all wrote in Proximal Origin that the virus was

171
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,839
Speaker 4: almost certainly not a laboratory construct. That paper was then

172
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 4: used by the government and the media and you to

173
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 4: discredit Americans who were asking the same questions that you

174
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 4: and the authors were asking yourselves privately. You even cited

175
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 4: Proximal Origin from the White House podium. You held it

176
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 4: out as evidence that the virus could not have been engineered,

177
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 4: But you didn't disclose your role and the discussions that

178
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 4: preceded the writing of the paper. You did not disclose

179
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 4: the author's original concerns. You did not concern You did

180
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 4: not reveal that you had been part of the paper,

181
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 4: that you had read and offered editorial comments on the

182
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 4: paper before it was published, before you began using it

183
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 4: as evidence that it couldn't have originated in the lab.

184
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,439
Speaker 4: You did not disclose that you had immediately investigated yourself

185
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 4: whether NIAID funding might be connected to the research.

186
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 5: You did not tell the American people the full story.

187
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 4: Douly released private messages indicate that the doubts with the

188
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,839
Speaker 4: authors and others didn't disappear after the publication. So while

189
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 4: this was being waived at the White House to show

190
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 4: that it couldn't come from the lab, the authors were

191
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 4: still privately continuing to sign a meaningful probability to a

192
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 4: laboratory origin.

193
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 5: One thing in public and another in private.

194
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 4: Some of the same scientists discussed avoiding email and carefully

195
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 4: managing communications that might eventually be obtained under the Freedom

196
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 4: of Information Act.

197
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 3: The pattern is straightforward.

198
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 5: Privately, there was.

199
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 4: Alarm and then an immediate inquiry to see if NIAID's

200
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 4: possible exposure to funding, then a rapid public declaration.

201
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 5: Of certainty, continued private doubt, and then years.

202
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 3: Of resistance disclosure.

203
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 4: The question is why, and the only logical answer is

204
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 4: that your primary concern was avoiding culpability. Your primary concern

205
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 4: was hiding the fact that you had approved the funding

206
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 4: for this dangerous research. Your support of gata function research

207
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 4: is extensive and long standing. In twenty eleven, your agency

208
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 4: funded ron Fucier's laboratory when it mutated the Avian flu

209
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 4: until it could spread through the air between mammals. This

210
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 4: was the tipping point. This is when others became worried.

211
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 4: You funded this, You advocated for this. The federal government's

212
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 4: own Biosecurity Board, though recommended withholding the details of these

213
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 4: experiments because of the danger of the research post. People

214
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 4: were concerned that publishing it was publishing a roadmap to

215
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 4: creating bioweapons around the world. But you sided with the

216
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 4: gain of function scientist Fucia and argued that the benefits

217
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 4: of publishing the research far outweighed the risks.

218
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 3: Gain of function research is how you manipulate a virus

219
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 3: to be more well, you could argue more lethal. But

220
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 3: what it's its purpose is how does this virus work?

221
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 3: And how can we maneuver and manipulate it? And yes,

222
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 3: the United States funded the Wuhan Virology lab through a

223
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 3: group called EcoHealth Alliance and man by name of it,

224
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 3: Peter Dasik das Zak, that happened. We have this data,

225
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 3: We know this to be factual. This is worthy discussion.

226
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 3: Never mind, should we be funding gain of function research

227
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 3: as a whole? Why would anybody think it's okay to

228
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 3: fund gain of function research in China? How could anyone

229
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 3: think this okay? The wet market is about certain parts

230
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 3: of China culture. And all this came from a bat

231
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 3: in a wet market. I don't know how how else

232
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 3: would I describe what a wet market is, Think of

233
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 3: it as a market where people buy food. That there

234
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 3: was no way this was person a person. This came

235
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 3: from the animal kingdom. They knew early on that wasn't

236
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 3: the case. We're talking about January through March of twenty twenty,

237
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 3: yet they continue to push that lie. So we have

238
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 3: an other subject that's worthy of discussion here. And no

239
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 3: matter how many people want to scream and yell that

240
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 3: we shouldn't be talking about that, that this is old news,

241
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 3: why does this any of this matter? We're told that

242
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 3: we've got a problem having faith in our institutions. Well,

243
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 3: no crap, how could you have faith in an institution

244
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 3: that lies. That's what Anthony Fauci did, and that's what

245
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 3: the NIH did, and that's what the CDC did. Because

246
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 3: it's all connected. And Anthony Fauci, upon hearing this, the

247
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 3: data from his his diaries and other papers, clearly showing

248
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 3: the lies. He then took to the microphone and said,

249
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 3: completing the fifth, which is strange because he's already gotten

250
00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 3: a pardon, which well, that pardon shouldn't be. I've got

251
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 3: a lot more to get to, including major Mike lyons

252
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 3: what's going on in Iran as they try to hit

253
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 3: US bases in Jordan? On Tony Katz, this is Tony

254
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 3: Kats Today. Click update on a story about a Wisconsin brewery.

255
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 3: There was a guy who owns a brewery in Wisconsin

256
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:26,479
Speaker 3: and this is the Minoqua Brewing Company and the owner there, remember,

257
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 3: they used to spread these rumors and they still will.

258
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 3: We haven't seen Trump for three days, always sick, alw

259
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,719
Speaker 3: he's dead. They did that one about six months ago.

260
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 3: Maybe it was a little bit longer. Tony Katz, It's me,

261
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 3: by the way, Tony Kats today. An absolute pleasure to

262
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 3: be with you. And people would would push these rumors

263
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,400
Speaker 3: that Trump was sick or Trump was dead, they haven't

264
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 3: seen him for three days. And the guy who owns

265
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 3: this brewery, Kirk Bengstad, he had put out a promotion

266
00:17:55,440 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 3: that said free beer when Trump dies, stylin absolutely good

267
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 3: good work. You are that's the kind of thing we

268
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 3: want in America. This was one of the things. This

269
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 3: is the stuff you know that the people of the

270
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 3: death wish. It's horrifyingly gross. And now they've had their

271
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 3: permit to operate in the state revoked by state officials.

272
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 3: This guy is going to fight it. They took away

273
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 3: his license. The Wisconsin Division of Alcohol Beverage of Alcohol

274
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 3: Beverages Sorry, It's dedicated to the fair and consistent enforcement

275
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 3: of alcohol regulations in Wisconsin. The Division is required to

276
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 3: follow and implement state law, including ensuring permit holders and

277
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 3: licensees follow all applicable laws and regulations. We can confirm

278
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 3: that the Department of Revenue has issued a notice of a

279
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 3: brewer's permit revocation for two Monoco Brewing Company locations and

280
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 3: notice of an Alcohol Beverage Warehouse permit revocation for one location.

281
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 3: The business has until August fourth to appeal and can

282
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 3: operate during the appeal. Prop says, should the business decide

283
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 3: to appeal, the next step would be to appeal to Secuary.

284
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 3: To the test Secuary Department of Revenue, who will assign

285
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 3: the appeal and onward and upwork. I don't actually know

286
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 3: if a statement as disgusting as the owners leads to

287
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 3: a revocation. It could have something to do with the

288
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 3: fact that licensing has certain requirements and this is a violation.

289
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,879
Speaker 3: There's going to be an appeal. It's gonna be a

290
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 3: story to watch. Major Mikelion's going to be which that's

291
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 3: with us. Next on Tony Katz. So we're told by

292
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 3: the President of the United States that Iran wants to

293
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 3: make a deal. They always want to make a deal.

294
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,199
Speaker 3: You can never ever count them out. They want to

295
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 3: make a deal. As the President once said it was

296
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,360
Speaker 3: in a post on Twitter years ago. Iran never won

297
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,360
Speaker 3: a war, never lost a negotiation. This is who they are.

298
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 3: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, great to be with you.

299
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,160
Speaker 3: For days. We have not engaged at a bombing raid

300
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 3: on Iran. They're asking us not to. They're begging to

301
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 3: make a deal. We're talking at the highest levels. It

302
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 3: was Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz saying things are

303
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 3: going well. And then last night it was Sentcom that

304
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 3: announced that the Iranian regime lobbed missiles at a US

305
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 3: base at five forty five pm Eastern time. The Islamic

306
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 3: Revolutionary Guard Core Forces launched multiple ballistic missiles from Iran

307
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 3: in an attempted surprise attack on US forces based in

308
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 3: the Middle East. All Iranian missiles were successfully intercepted. US

309
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 3: forces remained vigilant and at a high state of readiness.

310
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 3: I don't know how anything is a surprise from the

311
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 3: Iranians at this moment. Major Mike Lyons joined US right

312
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 3: now retired United States Army military analyst West point Man.

313
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 3: Let's start with the basic serp. What is it that

314
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 3: the Iranians attempted to do yesterday evening? I think they

315
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:07,439
Speaker 3: sent a.

316
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 6: Couple of messages.

317
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 7: They sent The first one was that they still have

318
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,439
Speaker 7: capability in order to fire a few missiles at you know,

319
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 7: not at scale, but a few missiles at precise targets.

320
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 7: I mean, getting likely intel from China or from Russia

321
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 7: or somebody else. I think that they're getting held from somebody.

322
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 7: And they did it during the funeral for Lindsey Graham,

323
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 7: which again sends another message to the President. The United

324
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 7: States did not decide to attack Iran when they were

325
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 7: having their funeral for coomin A.

326
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 6: So you know, it just.

327
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,919
Speaker 7: Shows you the people that we're dealing with, and you know,

328
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 7: we still you know, reading Instue Study of War this

329
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 7: morning was interesting because they brought up the different factions

330
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 7: that are existing in Iran right now, and there are.

331
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 6: Factions there that want to make a deal with the US.

332
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 7: They don't want to get bombed into submission, and they're

333
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 7: trying to do something. But the IRGC and some of

334
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 7: the hardliners still have decentralized that those military assets, and

335
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 7: they still have capability that can reach out and strike Jordan,

336
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 7: Saudi Arabia, Kuwi and those Gulf states that are there and.

337
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 6: Potentially target US assets in the region.

338
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 3: So as we look at what they did this bombing,

339
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,199
Speaker 3: and you talk about capability, and I agree with you,

340
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,920
Speaker 3: that is something to note that they still have the missiles,

341
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 3: but in doing so they let us know that they can.

342
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 3: Is that as a matter of strategy, one doesn't do

343
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 3: something unless they have to do it. So there's a

344
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 3: question of purpose here. Was the purpose here to show

345
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 3: strength and force to others within the Iranian leadership or

346
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 3: was this a lashing out They're working on last gasp.

347
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,919
Speaker 3: If they can't get the other nations around them to

348
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 3: push back against the United States, they have nothing and

349
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 3: this is their only way. They know to do it.

350
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, this is kind of a win by not losing, right,

351
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 7: They're trying to run the clock out. They're trying to

352
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 7: spike the price of oil again, it was up unfortunately

353
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 7: in the past few days, and they think if they

354
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 7: can put this kind of military pressure on the president

355
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 7: and if one of those missiles got through and we

356
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 7: had casualties. Again, we're seeing reports of casualty rates that

357
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 7: are higher than have been reported before. A Foyer report

358
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 7: made that change recently, and so, you know, again, Ron

359
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 7: is just trying to survive. I you know again, there's

360
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 7: other reports that show that it's working. At the blockade,

361
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 7: plus the sanctions, plus the military strikes are working.

362
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 6: It's just a matter of time.

363
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 7: If I'd like to see us go back to fourteen

364
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 7: fifteen straight days of continuous military strikes, taking out all

365
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 7: we can and then and then deciding we're going to talk,

366
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 7: then not just get taking a phone call in the.

367
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 6: Middle of it saying you know, we want to make

368
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 6: a deal.

369
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,439
Speaker 7: I don't think any deal happens until we decide that

370
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 7: we're going to make a deal.

371
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 3: Talking to Major Mike Lyons, retired in the United States

372
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 3: Army military analyst Axios in their reporting that that came

373
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 3: out yesterday or was it this morning, saying that the

374
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 3: blockade is working very well, that there is talk that

375
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 3: the factions, the terrorist factions has Blahamas, the IERGC itself

376
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 3: are not getting paid, payments have been reduced and that

377
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 3: this is working and to keep that up the pressure.

378
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 3: And one could argue, if that's what's working, you don't

379
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 3: actually need the bombings. So now I take it and

380
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 3: turn it the other way. Does this show that we

381
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 3: need the bombings or can the bombings be more strategic

382
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 3: to where the IRGC is located as opposed to what

383
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 3: we've been doing in the coastal areas.

384
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,919
Speaker 7: You know, I think that the military assets accelerate that

385
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 7: process of getting them to the table, and they're just

386
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 7: human nature is involved with that. So yeah, I think

387
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 7: we do need to continuous go after them, and if anything,

388
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 7: if we can use the military to do nothing more

389
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,399
Speaker 7: than tease out where some of those mobile launch units are.

390
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 7: For example, right, I think that we know that they

391
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 7: don't have many of them left, and we know that

392
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 7: they have capability to fire and SCOO to kind of shoot,

393
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 7: move communicate, and that still is what those.

394
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 6: Military chargets would be.

395
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 7: So I still believe that we don't declare any kind

396
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 7: of ceasefire until we're confident that there's really virtually a

397
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 7: minimal threat, almost no threat whatsoever to the regional countries

398
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 7: that are there, and make sure that they can't do

399
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 7: anything more.

400
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:24,959
Speaker 3: We talk about these missiles. You mentioned the idea of

401
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 3: a deal. I'm not somebody who believes the deal can

402
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 3: be made. There is no one to make a deal with.

403
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 3: Your point is that there are still factions that can

404
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,239
Speaker 3: make a deal, that want to make a deal, but

405
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 3: we have these other factions that want to keep fighting.

406
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 3: How does one get the IRGC under control the Islamic

407
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 3: Revolutionary Guard core if in any way other than destroying them,

408
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 3: And can that be done from the air?

409
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I hadn't seen it historically, We've never done

410
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 7: something like this just from the air. And we're not

411
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 7: sending two hundred thousand ground troops to Tehran anytime soon.

412
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,199
Speaker 7: But we might not get regime total regime change. But

413
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 7: we've talked about before this idea of regime compliance. What

414
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 7: we have in Venezuela, for example, it is difficult to

415
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 7: say forty seven years there are well in the fabric

416
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 7: and the dye in the communities of everything going on

417
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 7: in Iran right now. But I think the Iranians are

418
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,679
Speaker 7: you know, there's other wildcard factors that play here. The

419
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 7: Turks could factor in. The Kurds. We still haven't talked

420
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,919
Speaker 7: about them, their capability if they decide to invade certain

421
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 7: portions of the south. Let's say they decide to pick

422
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 7: up a military mission in southern in the southern part

423
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 7: of Iran and help with the United States as a

424
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 7: ground force.

425
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 6: That would go a long way as well. So that

426
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 6: threatens it.

427
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 7: That's there, And then we also haven't talked about the Ukrainians.

428
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 7: I think that no one you know that we've opened

429
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,439
Speaker 7: up another front to the north. The fact that the

430
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 7: Ukrainians can fire missiles at Russian assets a thousand kilometers

431
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 7: away in the Caspian Sea and hit Iranian ships. That

432
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 7: is another really bad signal if you're the Iranians. So

433
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 7: now you've got enemies on three sides. In the south

434
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 7: with the United States, you have them do eastern Israel,

435
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,479
Speaker 7: and now you have them to the north with Ukraine.

436
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 7: If they're going to start shooting at Iranian vessels in

437
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 7: the Caspian Sea, So a lot of pressure being still

438
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 7: being put on them militarily.

439
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 3: The Ukraine conversation, the turn there is absolutely amazing. We've

440
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 3: discussed this in depth. With their ability to make drones,

441
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 3: President Trump seeing a value in them, They've proven that

442
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 3: Zelenski has proven that he can learn and that he

443
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 3: can say listen, I'm okay with being the tip of

444
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 3: the spear here. All I'm asking is for some help

445
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 3: so we can continue this fight against this aggressor. It's

446
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 3: learning from Netanyahu, it's learning from the Israelis. They have

447
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 3: approached the terrorists and the Islamis throughout the Middle East.

448
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,440
Speaker 3: But let's go over three things that you just discussed.

449
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 3: Let's start with the idea of Ukraine hitting from the north.

450
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,400
Speaker 3: They want in this so they can further build their

451
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 3: ties closer to the United States. They're taking advantage of

452
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 3: an opportunity, and I don't blame them. It's also helpful

453
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,199
Speaker 3: to us. How much have the Russians been helping the

454
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 3: Iranians throughout all this and can will will it end?

455
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 3: Can the Russians afford to have end?

456
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 7: I think I think it's been ministerial support, as I've

457
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,479
Speaker 7: as I understand, as I've researched and talked to folks

458
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,439
Speaker 7: and looked at it. What I mean by that is

459
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 7: potentially intel. Some of the satellite shots maybe in that regard.

460
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 7: But the bottom line is all the Russian equipment that

461
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 7: the Uranians bought has been destroyed.

462
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 6: Most of it's been destroyed. The air defense system's destroyed.

463
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 7: You're seeing reports, Reuters is reporting this morning that the

464
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 7: Chinese are bringing hundreds of manpads back into into Iran.

465
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:40,239
Speaker 7: They're coming over land somehow. The Chinese are denying it.

466
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 7: But this was a deal that was made a few

467
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 7: months ago, and that was this was part of that

468
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 7: that OpEd I had wrote that we can't let China

469
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 7: in the game here. The next MoU has got to

470
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 7: be restrictive about what the Uranians can do about rebuilding

471
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 7: their military and so so. Again, while the Russians providing

472
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 7: ministerial support, that's about it. They're got. They've got their

473
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 7: hands full trying to defend the navy. Again, think about

474
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 7: the Caspian Sea. There's never been a NATO vehicle inside

475
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 7: of that. The Caspian Sea a landlocked sea that borders

476
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 7: around Kazakhstan, Russia, all those other countries there. Russia thought

477
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 7: it was a complete safe have and they could just

478
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,719
Speaker 7: sit there and lob missiles into Ukraine, use it as

479
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 7: a way to protect crimea and stuff that's over. He

480
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 7: who would have thought five years ago that Ukrainians would

481
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 7: have developed the capability to shoot missiles over a thousand

482
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 7: kilometers and hit naval assets of Russia in the Caspian Sea.

483
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 3: Not me talking to Major Mike Lions, retired United States

484
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 3: Army military analyst, just to give a look here of

485
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 3: the Caspian Sea. This is an area where you've got

486
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 3: Ukraine right there. Caspian Sea is a far ways away, sir.

487
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,480
Speaker 3: But the Caspian Sea Iran is to the south. That

488
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 3: is a long way away to be able to make

489
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 3: a hit as you're discussing. But Ukraine is able to

490
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 3: make that happen now.

491
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, and and hit.

492
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 7: So looking at the Iranians sending Shahi drones and sending

493
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 7: some of their technology into Russia, I'm sure Russia is

494
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 7: still pressuring them to do that. There those ships are

495
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 7: now vulnerable and so in some ways Lensky comes to

496
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 7: d C meets with bb Netanyahu. You saw that they

497
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 7: had a little bit of a of a glance at

498
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 7: each other, and now you know, as far as I'm concerned,

499
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 7: Ukraine has joined this fight.

500
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,239
Speaker 3: It was it wasn't it wasn't an aggressive glance. It

501
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 3: was it was a conversation.

502
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, unspoken words about to combat. You know, leaders here,

503
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 7: I look Zelenski for where it started, for where he

504
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 7: is now is turning out, it's going to go down

505
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 7: history and as saving that country and getting them he

506
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,959
Speaker 7: just fired as defense minister, ready to fire. Just he's

507
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 7: starting to try to put the people around him now

508
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 7: that you really trust to put a deal together. But

509
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 7: and I and again I wouldn't have never said this

510
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 7: in the past, but I'll say it now. I'm more

511
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 7: than happy to put Ukraine into NATO because they will

512
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 7: be leading the ED clearly the edge of the spear,

513
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,719
Speaker 7: not only just on the defense side of things, but

514
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 7: just the way they innovate in their technology alone. Look,

515
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 7: they've got licenses now to make patriots, right, so when

516
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 7: they get the rare rest minerals, they'll have patriots up

517
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 7: and running in six months in that country and we

518
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 7: won't have to sell them a single patriot missile.

519
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 3: Yeah. I hate having to disagree with you publicly, but man,

520
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 3: do I not want Ukraine in NATO at all. We're

521
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 3: going to save that conversation for another day. I only

522
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 3: have about a minute, so I do have a question

523
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 3: about the Kurds and will they need to be armed,

524
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 3: but I'm going to hold that for another day as well.

525
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 3: I want to get into the missiles that were shot

526
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 3: and the idea of surprise was the United States really

527
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 3: caught off guard by missiles heading their way towards Jordan,

528
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 3: towards military bases and American assets, whether it's in Jordan

529
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 3: or other parts of the Middle East.

530
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 7: No, the fact of the matter is they are intercepted.

531
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 7: If none of them were intercepted, then we'd be caught

532
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 7: off guard. The question is they are coming from higher

533
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 7: altitudes and it's more difficult to shoot out missiles that

534
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 7: are coming at the hyperstonic speeds from different altitudes, and

535
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 7: that's normally how these attacks go. They come in ways

536
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 7: with drones and different things. So no, but if we

537
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 7: were caught off guard, some of those missiles would have gottenrough.

538
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 7: It would have been a disaster. But again, they're staying on

539
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 7: their toes and they're making sure that their defense platforms

540
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 7: are working there.

541
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 3: Major Mike Lyons, retired United States Army military analyst. I

542
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 3: appreciate you taking the time to be with us. We

543
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 3: got a lot more show to get to keep it here.

544
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 3: This is Tony Katz today.

545
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 8: It's not an easy job, but it is because there's

546
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 8: so much at stake in our country. But these public

547
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 8: servants do it because they.

548
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 3: Are in the arena.

549
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 8: I just want to end by just reading a portion

550
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 8: of this because I think it's important as we're thinking

551
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 8: about how to be able to treat public servants through

552
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 8: this country, to think through this, and in the words

553
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 8: of Teddy Roosevelt, saying, it's not the critic who counts.

554
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 8: Not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles,

555
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 8: or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.

556
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 8: The credit belongs to the man who is actually in

557
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 8: the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat

558
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 8: and blood, who try valiantly, who errors, becomes short again

559
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 8: and again, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who

560
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 8: at the best knows in the end the triumphs of

561
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 8: high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails,

562
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 8: at least he fails while daring greatly.

563
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 3: What about the man in the arena who lies that's

564
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 3: Senator Andy Kim, Democrat from New Jersey, praising Anthony Fauci.

565
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:35,840
Speaker 3: What about the man who lies. Anthony Fauci is the

566
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 3: man in the arena. He's got the blood and sweat.

567
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 3: It's other people's blood. That's the argument. Outorship is weird.

568
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 3: All political worship is weird. Tony kas Tony Kax today,

569
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 3: good to be with you. What about all the other

570
00:33:55,680 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 3: doctors esteemed and lauded and with plenty of credentials, who said,

571
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 3: I don't see it that way. Look at this data,

572
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 3: and look at that data, and look at the other data,

573
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 3: and how people like yourself, Senator dismissed them. They weren't

574
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,280
Speaker 3: allowed to seat at the table, they weren't allowed into

575
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 3: the arena. That's the story. We are not praising a

576
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 3: man who did everything he could and got it wrong.

577
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 3: That's not the argument here. Or we're not discrediting a

578
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 3: man who did everything he could and got it wrong.

579
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,280
Speaker 3: We're talking about a man who did not do everything

580
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 3: he could because he did not relay the totality of

581
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 3: the story. That is not someone worthy of our praise.

582
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:43,720
Speaker 3: We're not talking about somebody who, once they got the data,

583
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 3: said I was wrong. We have new data, and here's

584
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 3: how we should proceed. He never said he was wrong,

585
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,840
Speaker 3: He never admitted to the new data. He said he

586
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 3: was doing one thing while he was doing another thing.

587
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:03,359
Speaker 3: No rational and praises that man. No rational person wants

588
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 3: their sons to grow up to be that kind of man.

589
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 3: The argument you make, Senator Kim falls flat. It is nonexistent.

590
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,720
Speaker 3: It is another of a great number of gas lightings

591
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 3: that based on political party people want to push on America.

592
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 3: Can we stop damage was done? Let us assess the damage,

593
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 3: who caused the damage, and ensure that it can't happen again.

594
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 3: Why isn't that our focus? And the answer is because

595
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,919
Speaker 3: it's more important to be political. This was the same

596
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 3: disgusting stuff that rocked us during COVID. We're taking this

597
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 3: virus or we're making it political. And now we have

598
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 3: the facts about Fauci and the so called experts, and

599
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 3: they're still.

600
00:35:52,960 --> 00:36:03,439
Speaker 9: Making it politicals of scene, I'm Tony Kats Live from Baull,

601
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 9: Heart bind and the Crossroads of America. It's Tony Katz today.

602
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 3: So Senator Rand Paul called Anthony Fauci, doctor Fauci the

603
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 3: esteem that stem It's funny when you say it out loud.

604
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,840
Speaker 3: Anthony Fauci was the guy we were supposed to have

605
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 3: faith in, we're supposed to believe, representing the institutions in

606
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:44,880
Speaker 3: the conversations about COVID and how we survive, and Anthony

607
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 3: Fauci lied, and Anthony Fauci lied a lot. Tony Kats

608
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 3: Tony Kats today an absolute pleasure to be hearing, to

612
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 3: do all the good things. Anthony Fauci took the fifth.

613
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 3: He did so one hundred and eleven times this morning

614
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 3: in this hearing. No matter what the question, I plead

615
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 3: the fifth. And some of the questions were pretty innocuous.

616
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 3: Some of the questions were pretty normal. Actually they weren't

617
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 3: even normal. They were super weird. But it was trying

618
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 3: to set the points that he won't answer anything. This

619
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 3: was Senator Josh Hawley, Hey.

620
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 1: You, miss chairman, Well, nothing says honesty like taking the fifth.

621
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 3: H doc, Let's try something.

622
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 6: What day of the week is it today?

623
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 10: On the Devisive Council, I respectfully declined to answer based

624
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 10: upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution.

625
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,280
Speaker 3: We color tie you're wearing.

626
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,879
Speaker 10: On the advisive Council, I respectfully declined to answer, based

627
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 10: upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.

628
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 6: What colors the carpet in front of you.

629
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 3: On the Advisive Council?

630
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,919
Speaker 10: I respectfully declined to answer based upon my rights under

631
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:18,839
Speaker 10: the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.

632
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:23,879
Speaker 3: So this is going well. So you understand he wasn't

633
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 3: going to answer anything. And if you're asking, why wouldn't

634
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 3: he answer those questions, because it would open himself up

635
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:39,319
Speaker 3: to answer one question is to answer all questions. Right,

636
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 3: that's the story that if he answered any of the questions,

637
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 3: he'd be a guy who would be answering questions, and

638
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 3: therefore he couldn't do that. Now we can ask ourselves

639
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 3: why in the world he would actually take the fifth

640
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,360
Speaker 3: We have the data, we have the story, we have

641
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 3: his documentation, we know what he did, and he had

642
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:08,280
Speaker 3: gotten a pardon still taking the fifth. But before he does,

643
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 3: he gives an opening statement. Listen jar.

644
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:22,440
Speaker 10: Member Peters, members of the Committee. I served at the

645
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 10: NIH for over fifty four years.

646
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:26,720
Speaker 3: Thirty eight of those.

647
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 10: As Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

648
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:35,319
Speaker 10: Over that period, I proved that I believe in and

649
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 10: respect the value of legitimate congressional oversight. In fact, I

650
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 10: testified before and or briefed Senate and House Congressional Senate

651
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:53,360
Speaker 10: and House committees well over two hundred times over.

652
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 3: Those thirty eight years.

653
00:39:55,920 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 10: During and after the COVID pandemic, I have appeared multiple

654
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 10: times for hearings in the Senate and the House, usually

655
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:11,960
Speaker 10: under oath, and sat for several days long transcribed sworn

656
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:15,959
Speaker 10: interviews answering questions about the.

657
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,280
Speaker 3: Very issues that are now the subject of this hearing.

658
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 10: However, given Senator Paul's obvious obsession with calling for my prosecution,

659
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 10: his repeated slanderous comments about me, and recently his publicly

660
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:45,840
Speaker 10: releasing my unredacted personal diary aimed at embarrassing and intimidating me,

661
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 10: the only conclusion I can reach is that the sole

662
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,399
Speaker 10: reason he is calling me before.

663
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 3: This committee is to get me.

664
00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:03,240
Speaker 10: To say something, anything, that could vindicate his repeated public

665
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 10: pledges that I end up in his words quote behind

666
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 10: bars unquote. Any reasonable person who has followed his unhinged

667
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 10: obsession with me would readily come to the same conclusion. Therefore,

668
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 10: although it pains me to do so, because of the

669
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:32,920
Speaker 10: respect I have for the legislative branch of government and

670
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 10: my decades long record of cooperating with Congress, under the

671
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:42,839
Speaker 10: advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under

672
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:47,240
Speaker 10: the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution to refrain from answering

673
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 10: your questions.

674
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 3: Thank you. So I'm not going to answer any questions,

675
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 3: but before I do, let me see how much I

676
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 3: can impune and center around Paul. And the best is

677
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 3: I don't know how she got I mean, I guess

678
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,440
Speaker 3: anybody can. And Laura Ingram from Fox News is behind

679
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 3: Fauci during this, and some of the eye rolls it

680
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 3: looks it's like she's a meme. Right there, it's pretty

681
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 3: well done. I'm gonna start where I start, which is, well,

682
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 3: I guess we could start with saying that rand Paul

683
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 3: is guilty of slander, intimidation, obsession, unhinged. What about this

684
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 3: is obsession and intimidation and slander. It's your diary, it's

685
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 3: your words, it's your conversations, it's your notes. What exactly

686
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 3: about all of this could possibly be slander obsession. You lied,

687
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 3: you lied, and as somebody who is out there trying

688
00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 3: to figure out what happened to what we did to

689
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 3: the country, shouldn't we note the people who lied and

690
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 3: hold them to account. It's the only rational course, only

691
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:13,240
Speaker 3: rational course. But I have to dig into this idea

692
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 3: of unredacted sharing my unredacted diary. Now. I have had

693
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 3: a couple people ask me in the chat room. I've

694
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 3: had people on social media who keeps a diary? And

695
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 3: are you Tony the only person who doesn't keep a

696
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 3: diary any I don't see anything wrong with diaries, with

697
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 3: having a journal, with writing things down, not at all,

698
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 3: notes of what happened during the day, thoughts that you had.

699
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:46,880
Speaker 3: It's actually a really helpful thing to go back and

700
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 3: look at your own notes. I talk about this in

701
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 3: the World of Cigars, about keeping a diary of what

702
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:55,399
Speaker 3: you've been trying and flavors that you gots. You can

703
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:59,400
Speaker 3: go back and look at things. The idea of keeping

704
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 3: notes of of where you were. Whenever I write somebody

705
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:05,399
Speaker 3: a note, if I send somebody a card, I date

706
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,879
Speaker 3: it so people know when it came from. I think

707
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,520
Speaker 3: it's actually an extremely good skill and one that I

708
00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 3: would commend people to getting into. Do I keep a diary?

709
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 3: I do not. I have this show. If I want

710
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,280
Speaker 3: to know what I was thinking at any one moment,

711
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 3: I could just go back through the shows. Right The

712
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 3: show is my diary. The show is also my therapy.

713
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,399
Speaker 3: I would tell you right now, get yourself a show.

714
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 3: It is helpful. Sometimes it'll drive you nuts, but for

715
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:38,239
Speaker 3: the most part, very very helpful for keeping blood pressure low.

716
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 3: If the diary had been redacted, doctor Fauci, would that

717
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 3: have been better? You mean, if we didn't have the information,

718
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,359
Speaker 3: if we didn't have the data, if we didn't have

719
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,840
Speaker 3: you on record, if we didn't have proof of all

720
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:04,239
Speaker 3: of the things that you had said privately contrary to

721
00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 3: what you had said publicly, then it would have been fine.

722
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 3: That's that is a very very very weird argument. That

723
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:24,840
Speaker 3: is a strange, peculiar bit of nonsense. It is because

724
00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 3: we have all this information that we can say, my gosh,

725
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:37,880
Speaker 3: look what you have done, Look what you have done,

726
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 3: and what you have done is unacceptable. And there are

727
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 3: a lot of senators, Democrats and Republicans showed up. One

728
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 3: of the people who showed up, John Fetterman, actually put

729
00:45:56,920 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 3: on the suit and tie.

730
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 11: To say this, but one that I it's not about

731
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:08,399
Speaker 11: much more your regrets, But I have one, and that

732
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:14,160
Speaker 11: is early on that there was the theory that the

733
00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:18,239
Speaker 11: virus could have emerged from the lab. And early on

734
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:23,239
Speaker 11: that became like a right wing kind of theory, and

735
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 11: I thought it seemed to make sense. Now there was

736
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:28,719
Speaker 11: a really advanced lab that was close by, and then

737
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:35,360
Speaker 11: you have this unknown virus out. So but that became

738
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 11: a very partisan thing, and now it seems now it's

739
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:42,239
Speaker 11: more and more emerging theory that that would have come

740
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:46,239
Speaker 11: from from the lab. Now, you know, I hope I

741
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 11: think that the next time our nation's facing something like this,

742
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 11: we are not become you know, as I might have

743
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:56,360
Speaker 11: been blinded by the partisan idea that maybe the truth

744
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 11: might come from a side that's different than than you are.

745
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 11: I think we should really be willing to pursue truth,

746
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:06,759
Speaker 11: no matter where that may have emerged.

747
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:12,000
Speaker 3: You know, after that is correct, we should not be

748
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 3: afraid to ask ourselves what is actually happening here? And

749
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 3: it may come from a different place than our ideological brethren.

750
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 3: It doesn't make it wrong, it doesn't make it wrong.

751
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 3: And yet that's where we're going. I mean, the hearing

752
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 3: had all sorts of nonsense associated with it, including the

753
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 3: lawyer for Anthony Fauci. Now there were a bunch of

754
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 3: lawyers there. He had a bunch of lawyers, and Senator

755
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:59,680
Speaker 3: rand Paul makes a note of this repeatedly, and one

756
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:01,800
Speaker 3: of them decided to sit at the table with Fetterman.

757
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:03,760
Speaker 3: He wasn't asked to sit at this table with Fetterman.

758
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 3: He wasn't a witness, he wasn't called as a witness,

759
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 3: He had no ability to speak. But he wanted to

760
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:15,920
Speaker 3: sit next to his clients, and and and and he

761
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 3: wanted to now get into a back and forth with

762
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:22,839
Speaker 3: Senator ran Paul, to which Senator ran Paul is not

763
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 3: having any of it. And yet Democrats want to hear

764
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 3: from the lawyer.

765
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:34,399
Speaker 4: As you are not recognized security, we'll we'll hold off,

766
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 4: but you will respect these proceedings. You were told not

767
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 4: to sit at the table. You insist on sitting at

768
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:43,600
Speaker 4: the table, and we told you you would not be recognized.

769
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:48,359
Speaker 4: You are not invited here for testimony, Sir. You are

770
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:52,400
Speaker 4: being disruptive. Would you behave this way in a courtroom? No,

771
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 4: because the judge would put you in jail. I can't

772
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,160
Speaker 4: do that today, but I can have you escorted from

773
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 4: the premises. So I would say, sir, sit quietly and

774
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 4: don't say another word. I said, said quietly, you are

775
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 4: not recognized. Another word and you're gone.

776
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 3: He doesn't sit so quietly. I mean he tries to

777
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:12,799
Speaker 3: you for a little bit. Mister chairman.

778
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,880
Speaker 5: I'd like to hear what the attorney has to say.

779
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 3: That's Gary Peters, Democrat from Michigan, the guy not running

780
00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 3: for reelection. He's not a witness. So this is a

781
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:30,840
Speaker 3: great example of the politics. You're the senator, this is

782
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:35,400
Speaker 3: your hearing. Do you not believe in the rules? And

783
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 3: the answer is, well, when it's politically disadvantageous, I don't

784
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:43,080
Speaker 3: believe in the rules. What kind of thing is this?

785
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 3: So Gary Peters, the ranking member says, I want to

786
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 3: hear from him, and Ran Paul's like, what's wrong with you?

787
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,840
Speaker 4: He is not recognized by the committee or the chair.

788
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:55,239
Speaker 4: If he speaks again, he will be removed from the room.

789
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:59,440
Speaker 4: This testimony is from Anthony Fauci. This is not a

790
00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:02,560
Speaker 4: game with the lawyers. He can advise, his lawyers can

791
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:05,920
Speaker 4: give him advice. He's got a half dozen here they're

792
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,440
Speaker 4: all allowed to talk to him, yes, all right, but

793
00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 4: the attorneys are not recognized. In fact, the attorney was

794
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,319
Speaker 4: told not to sit at the table and he's not

795
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,279
Speaker 4: obeying that recommendation. There's a row behind you, sir, that's

796
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:19,640
Speaker 4: where you were told to sit, and you're not. And

797
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:22,920
Speaker 4: now you're disrupting the proceedings. And so look, this is

798
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:25,800
Speaker 4: the way Anthony Fauci wants to be remembered. For a lawyer,

799
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 4: not listening to the rules, that's the.

800
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:29,680
Speaker 3: Way you want to be remembered. And that's where you're

801
00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:30,120
Speaker 3: going to do.

802
00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:32,200
Speaker 5: You are not recognized, sir.

803
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:43,840
Speaker 4: Of security police removing from the room.

804
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 3: His briefcase, Core folded in the briefcase, and then he

805
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:53,240
Speaker 3: he leaves. You should look at this and say these

806
00:50:53,280 --> 00:51:02,760
Speaker 3: people are unserrious. The worst part about COVID, well, people

807
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 3: did die. We took something that we should have been

808
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:11,719
Speaker 3: working on together and we said, how do we make

809
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 3: it political? I can't say it enough. And here we are,

810
00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 3: knowing what we know about Fauci and how he lied,

811
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:25,839
Speaker 3: and they're still making it political. I want to say

812
00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:29,920
Speaker 3: again that the court of public opinion is going to

813
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 3: be very very clear here guilty now as for the

814
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:41,840
Speaker 3: idea of a prosecution. The Senator Ran Paul later spoke

815
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,880
Speaker 3: to the press about this. Oh heard you.

816
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 6: Hold doctor Fauci your name that you.

817
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 12: That's the moment that will happen in committee next week.

818
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 3: It will be in contempt of Congress. We believe that

819
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:56,960
Speaker 3: with his liability, his.

820
00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:01,040
Speaker 4: Immunity from the criminal liability, that he didn't need to

821
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:02,320
Speaker 4: hide on the Fifth Amendment.

822
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:04,359
Speaker 3: And then maybe the Fifth Amendment.

823
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:06,399
Speaker 4: Doesn't attach when you have a part in your place.

824
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:09,160
Speaker 12: That'll be a legal question, but the question on the

825
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:12,040
Speaker 12: tem will be voted on, and then there's a question

826
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:14,439
Speaker 12: of whether or not the environment of justice will take

827
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:17,240
Speaker 12: that out. You know, I've recommended before for his criminal

828
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 12: pum prosecution, and neither the Biden DOJ nor the Trump

829
00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:21,680
Speaker 12: DOJ I have taken it out.

830
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 5: All I can do is recommend the prosecution.

831
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:29,200
Speaker 3: I can't initiate prosecuting, correct His hands are tied at

832
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:33,720
Speaker 3: that moment, and Fauci may be very well just relying

833
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:38,560
Speaker 3: on that as a citizen he can Does the pardon

834
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 3: preclude him from taking the Fifth I don't have an

835
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,440
Speaker 3: answer for you. I'm not going to claim to be

836
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 3: a legal expert, right, Okay, I did once see five

837
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,759
Speaker 3: episodes of Matt Locke, so I should be pretty good.

838
00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:57,200
Speaker 3: But I don't have the answer. And the question is

839
00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:01,239
Speaker 3: will the DOJ make a move? And you also have

840
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:05,319
Speaker 3: to consider the political on that do you make a move?

841
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:09,439
Speaker 3: Let me further the political do you make the move

842
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 3: before the midterms? These are real considerations. But the court

843
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 3: of public opinion, this dude's guilty, and we all damn

844
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 3: well know it. I'm Tony Katz and this is Tony

845
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:30,319
Speaker 3: Katz Today. There is a story about eBay that might

846
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 3: qualify as the weirdest story I have ever come across

847
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:38,360
Speaker 3: Tony Kats Tony Katz today, and that's saying something. It

848
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:43,399
Speaker 3: is a fifty six million dollars settlement, Tony Kat, I said,

849
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:45,839
Speaker 3: Tony Katz, I said, hello, sorry, this is weird the story.

850
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 3: It's got me all confused. eBay and three former top

851
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:53,080
Speaker 3: execs are paying fifty five point seven million. It's a

852
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 3: lawsuit by a Massachusetts couple who say they were victims

853
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:02,840
Speaker 3: of a stalking and harassment campaign carried out by employees

854
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:08,720
Speaker 3: and retaliation for their coverage of the company. So David

855
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 3: and Einsteiner I know nothing about them at all. They run.

856
00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:24,279
Speaker 3: I guess a site that reviews different websites. It's called

857
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 3: e commerce bites Bytes, and it was critical of eBay,

858
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:36,360
Speaker 3: and I guess eBay didn't like it. And so the

859
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:41,440
Speaker 3: chief communications officer texted to someone in twenty nineteen that

860
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 3: it was time to quote take her down meeting this

861
00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:54,799
Speaker 3: woman and this couple. So they engaged in harassment of

862
00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:59,719
Speaker 3: this couple. They were trying to figure out how they

863
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:05,880
Speaker 3: could go so after this couple, they targeted them in

864
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,880
Speaker 3: a cyberstalking campaign that involved this is the quote. This

865
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:14,360
Speaker 3: is from Yahoo Finance sending the couple cockroaches, fly larvae

866
00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 3: and a bloody Halloween pig mask. That is so unhinged

867
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,240
Speaker 3: that these people at eBay could be one of my trolls.

868
00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:34,359
Speaker 3: Who does this? Why in the world would anyone? I'm

869
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:37,719
Speaker 3: Tony Katz. Three more Things Tony Katz. That's me, by

870
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:39,320
Speaker 3: the way, Tony kats today. It's the name of the

871
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:43,560
Speaker 3: show YouTube and rumble, Tony Katz Facebook, Tony cats Radio

872
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:46,560
Speaker 3: on the Twitter, also known as x Tony Katz. Three

873
00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:48,720
Speaker 3: more things. These are things that should be front page news,

874
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 3: but because of what's on the front page, they don't

875
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 3: make the front page. I bring these things to you

876
00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:03,800
Speaker 3: as well. Now we know that Jordan intercepted five Iranian missiles.

877
00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 3: This took place yesterday. It was Sentcom making this announcement

878
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,600
Speaker 3: that there was a missile attack from the Iranian regime.

879
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:15,680
Speaker 3: I think the most interesting thing about this is that

880
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:20,400
Speaker 3: they let everybody know they can still send missiles. And

881
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:24,880
Speaker 3: it was the US and Saudi Arabia together that engaged

882
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 3: in responses. Part of this is Iran still trying to

883
00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:34,800
Speaker 3: get the neighboring nations who they've already attacked multiple times,

884
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 3: the Ue, Bahrain, Jordan, to come to their side. It's

885
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:44,680
Speaker 3: not happening. The Middle East is changing, and Trump has

886
00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:47,600
Speaker 3: been a leader in this. The Abraham Accords have done this,

887
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:52,319
Speaker 3: the Rethink has done this. And NETANYAHUO was there at

888
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:58,719
Speaker 3: the White House yesterday and a couple of articles were

889
00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:04,360
Speaker 3: about the diminished stature of net Yahoo. I took that

890
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:08,319
Speaker 3: as an interesting kind of statement, Trump saying I'm gonna

891
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,040
Speaker 3: sell F thirty five to whomever I want to sell

892
00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 3: F thirty five too. Yes he is. Do I think

893
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:13,040
Speaker 3: you should sell them to Turkey?

894
00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:13,160
Speaker 10: No?

895
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:16,560
Speaker 3: I don't, but yeah, he's gonna make that call. He's

896
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:20,200
Speaker 3: not worried about what Netnyahuo says about it. All of

897
00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:22,520
Speaker 3: this going to the idea that if you think net

898
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 3: Naho is in charge of Trump, it's just unseeriousness. It's

899
00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:30,160
Speaker 3: just Trump hate. That's all, nothing more, nothing less. You

900
00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:32,560
Speaker 3: can argue that you don't want to be involved in

901
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:35,680
Speaker 3: a fight with Iran. I think that that's a bad idea.

902
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:40,080
Speaker 3: We know it's a terrorist nation, that the terrorism continues.

903
00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:42,880
Speaker 3: They've been at war with US for forty seven years,

904
00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:44,960
Speaker 3: just like Islamists have been at war with the world

905
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 3: since the beginning of the Islamist but them shooting missiles

906
00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:54,000
Speaker 3: shows that they still can. And to point out something

907
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:57,080
Speaker 3: major Mike Lyon said earlier on the program our military analyst,

908
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:02,320
Speaker 3: the economic block may be working, and there may be fractures,

909
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,560
Speaker 3: and they may not be able to pay all of

910
00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:09,680
Speaker 3: their terrorists, but the bombing should continue to exacerbate what's

911
00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 3: happening on the economic side, to continue the pressure. And

912
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:17,240
Speaker 3: I wonder if that's going to happen. President Trump said

913
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 3: he was going to hit them hard. The Dow was

914
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:24,280
Speaker 3: down over eight hundred points at one moment today, the

915
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:26,840
Speaker 3: Nasdaq was down over two hundred points one moment today,

916
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:29,240
Speaker 3: and you could say that that has to do with

917
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:32,120
Speaker 3: oil oils at eighty four dollars and fifty cents. It

918
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:35,200
Speaker 3: is about midday a barrel in the West Texas crew

919
00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:36,840
Speaker 3: that comes out of the ground. The Brent crewed coming

920
00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:38,480
Speaker 3: out of the oceans was eighty nine dollars and ninety

921
00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:43,480
Speaker 3: seven cents. It's up over five dollars just today. Right

922
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,880
Speaker 3: anytime there's an action that these things are going to

923
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:50,360
Speaker 3: go up. But Iran told us that they're still capable

924
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,920
Speaker 3: of doing things, so we have to, I think, engage

925
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:57,080
Speaker 3: appropriately with that. So that's leading the way. And of

926
00:58:57,080 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 3: course Anthony Fauci not testifying in front of of Congress

927
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:04,760
Speaker 3: showing up to plead the fifth one hundred and eleven times.

928
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 3: We did the count. It was one hundred and eleven

929
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:15,880
Speaker 3: times that we saw this happen, that he pled the fifth.

930
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:19,360
Speaker 3: He would not answer questions. But there are some other stories,

931
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:22,200
Speaker 3: and one of these goes to New York. And if

932
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 3: you say to me, Tony, we don't care about New York,

933
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:28,600
Speaker 3: I agree. But if we're going to argue that Mamdannie

934
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:30,680
Speaker 3: is now leading the New Democrat Party, which is the

935
00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:33,760
Speaker 3: Communist party, we have to see what it is that

936
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:35,840
Speaker 3: he has brought and what it is it has, what

937
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:39,400
Speaker 3: it is that it has wrought. Yeah, yeah, I shouldn't

938
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,080
Speaker 3: have said it that way. That's that's not good for radio.

939
00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 3: Longtime New Yorkers. According to The New York Post, fume

940
00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 3: after being hit with a massive Pieta tear tax. This

941
00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:54,320
Speaker 3: was Mamdani bragging about the fact that if you have

942
00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:57,840
Speaker 3: a second home in New York, condo, apartment, whatever it

943
00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 3: is worth over five million dollars, you're going to pay

944
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:02,840
Speaker 3: more taxes because you have to pay your fair share.

945
01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:06,720
Speaker 3: The rich aren't paying their fair share. We've heard this

946
01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 3: before and it's nonsensical. Well, a list got released of

947
01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:15,960
Speaker 3: all the homes that are going to get hit, names, addresses,

948
01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:20,040
Speaker 3: and people are saying, you just put out a hit list. Now.

949
01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:24,760
Speaker 3: I noted immediately that if somebody wanted to, they could

950
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:31,160
Speaker 3: find publicly available information home purchases. The stuff gets listed,

951
01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 3: it gets recorded. The argument counter to that, if people

952
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:40,520
Speaker 3: are being hit with a tax, you could look up

953
01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:44,640
Speaker 3: and see what's going on, is that What the Mamdani

954
01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:49,760
Speaker 3: team did is they made it a very easy, very

955
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:56,120
Speaker 3: searchable bit of information because they want to go after

956
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:59,880
Speaker 3: these people, whether it's they want attack, whether they want humiliation,

957
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:03,280
Speaker 3: whether they want a pressure campaign, whatever it is, and

958
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:06,160
Speaker 3: that's why they did it. And when you take a

959
01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 3: look at the numbers of where this tax is going,

960
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:15,240
Speaker 3: you start realizing that this isn't about five million dollars

961
01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:17,320
Speaker 3: worth of value, which in New York is a very

962
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:21,200
Speaker 3: easy thing for an apartment to be. You have got

963
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 3: numbers that go down to a million. It's not just apartments,

964
01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:28,800
Speaker 3: it's it's homes. And people have been getting these these letters,

965
01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:32,919
Speaker 3: this potential tax bill who don't own a second home.

966
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:41,240
Speaker 3: This is their primary residence. So they are extremely, extremely bothered.

967
01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:49,080
Speaker 3: This is what you voted for. My problem is that

968
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,280
Speaker 3: not everybody in New York voted for this. And the

969
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:56,560
Speaker 3: reason I bring it up is because terrible ideas very

970
01:01:56,600 --> 01:02:00,720
Speaker 3: often spread. You've got a communist that runs, You've got

971
01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:07,280
Speaker 3: the whole of California, so you have the possibility of

972
01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:12,600
Speaker 3: this spreading very often. What happens in the Midwest, now

973
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:15,520
Speaker 3: I know, we're heard all over the place. Were heard

974
01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:19,560
Speaker 3: in Charlotte and WBT, were heard in Detroit on nine

975
01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:23,959
Speaker 3: ten AM superstation, were heard in Peoria, Illinois, were heard

976
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:30,120
Speaker 3: down in Tulsa on KRMG. Other spots in Indiana, what's

977
01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:36,240
Speaker 3: up MNC nation. What happens in New York has a

978
01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:39,800
Speaker 3: way of spreading, and very often you'll hear me say,

979
01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 3: the people who don't want to live under this insanity

980
01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:47,000
Speaker 3: will move. I have said this about Ken Griffin, who

981
01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:49,600
Speaker 3: that's the video that Mom Donnie made of the hedge

982
01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:52,480
Speaker 3: fund manager. This is Ken Griffin's other apartment or one

983
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:54,600
Speaker 3: of his properties, and we're going to tax a living

984
01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,640
Speaker 3: snot out of it. And Ken Griffin said, well, we're

985
01:02:57,640 --> 01:03:00,680
Speaker 3: not going to have our offices in New York. Correct,

986
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:03,960
Speaker 3: correct answer. You should just move all your business out

987
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:05,600
Speaker 3: of New York. You don't need to be there anymore.

988
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:09,240
Speaker 3: It's the capital of nothing. It's not the capital of

989
01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:18,439
Speaker 3: finance anymore. Let's change the capital of finance Newsmax and

990
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:22,120
Speaker 3: Fox News. Why are you staying there? I don't disagree.

991
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:24,880
Speaker 3: It would be a huge investment to have to move

992
01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:28,720
Speaker 3: everything out of those buildings. I get it. They're going

993
01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 3: to tax you out of existence. They're gonna come after you.

994
01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:35,760
Speaker 3: Why stay? I really do think that they should, that

995
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:39,120
Speaker 3: they should move. And what I get is Tony want

996
01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,880
Speaker 3: we don't want these people moving here. Everybody across the

997
01:03:41,920 --> 01:03:43,720
Speaker 3: Midwest and all these places. Oh, we don't want them

998
01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:51,160
Speaker 3: coming here. I understand that all too well. But there

999
01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:54,880
Speaker 3: are plenty of people who live in these places. They

1000
01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:58,439
Speaker 3: haven't done anything wrong, they didn't vote for this. They're

1001
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:00,000
Speaker 3: living in the madness, and they don't want to live

1002
01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:09,240
Speaker 3: in the madness. I I, as I see it. There

1003
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:12,120
Speaker 3: are good businesses out there. Why shouldn't we want them?

1004
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:14,960
Speaker 3: Good business is run by good people. Why shouldn't we

1005
01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:21,600
Speaker 3: want them? Why shouldn't we say come? I believe New

1006
01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:26,960
Speaker 3: York should suffer the fate of Atlas Shrugged, and eventually

1007
01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:33,320
Speaker 3: the lights will go out, and we should watch them fail.

1008
01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:39,560
Speaker 3: And I think we should point and tell everybody we know,

1009
01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:43,600
Speaker 3: you see that, That's what happens when you're a fool.

1010
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:47,280
Speaker 3: That's what happens when you push against capitalism. That's what

1011
01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:52,040
Speaker 3: happens when you hate people. That's what happens when you

1012
01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:56,240
Speaker 3: say things as ignorant and daft and allheartedly stupid, as

1013
01:04:56,320 --> 01:05:02,520
Speaker 3: fair share. These things are coming for the Midwest and

1014
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:06,080
Speaker 3: the South and everywhere else. We need to be aware

1015
01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:08,320
Speaker 3: of them. That's why I bring it up. Then there

1016
01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:12,760
Speaker 3: was a story from the Wall Street Journal fascinating from

1017
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 3: Cracker barrel to Boeing. Companies are turning to retired CEOs.

1018
01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:21,920
Speaker 3: The new crop of CEOs are failing, so they're going

1019
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:26,120
Speaker 3: back to the people who were there before. And I

1020
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:33,760
Speaker 3: wondered aloud, what this is telling us? Is this about acumen?

1021
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,520
Speaker 3: Is this about business? Is this about knowing how to

1022
01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:41,640
Speaker 3: run a company? Or is this about attitude? That the

1023
01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:45,440
Speaker 3: company has to profit? When the company profits, it can survive.

1024
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:48,760
Speaker 3: So stop worrying about the other nonsense and get back

1025
01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:53,040
Speaker 3: to profit. People. Now, you could argue it might be

1026
01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:55,080
Speaker 3: one and the same. I'm not one hundred percent sure

1027
01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:59,320
Speaker 3: it's one and the same. Maybe the answer is the

1028
01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:07,600
Speaker 3: attitude it allows for the acumen to flourish. Profit is good, Well,

1029
01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:10,560
Speaker 3: you're profiting on the back, so the working class, the

1030
01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:14,280
Speaker 3: working class is making money because the company is profiting.

1031
01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:21,200
Speaker 3: If I hire somebody, I'll pick a number at ten

1032
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:22,880
Speaker 3: dollars an hour, well, let's call it twenty dollars an hour,

1033
01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:25,120
Speaker 3: to make you know, some people not crazy. If I

1034
01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:28,960
Speaker 3: hire somebody at twenty dollars an hour, they have to

1035
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:32,560
Speaker 3: provide me twenty one dollars an hour worth of service.

1036
01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:36,760
Speaker 3: Otherwise it's of no value. Why would I hire them?

1037
01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:40,520
Speaker 3: Why would I ever do such a thing. So you

1038
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:43,320
Speaker 3: have to start with the attitude that profit is good,

1039
01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:48,040
Speaker 3: profit matters, and if you don't have that attitude, you

1040
01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:51,640
Speaker 3: don't have a company worth a day. So is that

1041
01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:58,280
Speaker 3: what we're seeing here, that this turning to retired CEOs. Yes,

1042
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:02,400
Speaker 3: it could be because they have a proven tree, and

1043
01:07:02,440 --> 01:07:04,760
Speaker 3: it could be because they have the attitude that is

1044
01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:09,720
Speaker 3: necessary for growth. Not playing in the woke spaces, not

1045
01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:11,720
Speaker 3: playing in the madness, not worrying about having a board

1046
01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:13,520
Speaker 3: that has two of this color and two of this

1047
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:15,920
Speaker 3: gender and two of this no, no, no, a board

1048
01:07:15,960 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 3: that knows what it's doing, a company that is focused.

1049
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:24,520
Speaker 3: And maybe what needs to happen is you bring in

1050
01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:28,520
Speaker 3: these older CEOs and the thing that matters most is

1051
01:07:28,640 --> 01:07:32,880
Speaker 3: training the other executives to be able to take over

1052
01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:40,400
Speaker 3: a company that has the same attitude. Maybe the most

1053
01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:47,600
Speaker 3: telling story I have seen in a while, because you

1054
01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:50,800
Speaker 3: know what attitude is acumen. Look at that. You turn

1055
01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:54,120
Speaker 3: me all around right there. You need the attitude to

1056
01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,680
Speaker 3: be able to apply the acumen to be able to

1057
01:07:56,800 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 3: have the company on better financial footing, which is better

1058
01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:02,400
Speaker 3: for everybody who works for the company because it means

1059
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:06,200
Speaker 3: they have a job, having two of this and two

1060
01:08:06,240 --> 01:08:09,800
Speaker 3: of that and all the woke stuff. It doesn't provide

1061
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:13,440
Speaker 3: a result. It doesn't provide a value. We've proven it.

1062
01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:19,719
Speaker 3: We've proven it. And if you want real value, protect

1063
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:21,960
Speaker 3: your data because there are people out there trying to

1064
01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:25,960
Speaker 3: steal it every single way they can. And they get

1065
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:28,639
Speaker 3: these files with your address and your sell numbers, your

1066
01:08:28,680 --> 01:08:33,000
Speaker 3: email addresses. They've got your kids name, they've got your kids' names,

1067
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,320
Speaker 3: and this this file that has your medical history and

1068
01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,880
Speaker 3: everything else. It can be bought by anybody with a

1069
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:42,200
Speaker 3: credit card. This is the data broker industry, multi billion

1070
01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,960
Speaker 3: dollar industry. Your file gets collected, it gets packaged, it

1071
01:08:45,000 --> 01:08:47,360
Speaker 3: gets sold, all of it legal, and they know everything

1072
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:49,080
Speaker 3: about you and they send that fishing texture, like, how

1073
01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:51,479
Speaker 3: in the world does somebody know this? Someone paid for

1074
01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:55,839
Speaker 3: your file? Guys, last year Americans lost twenty billion dollars

1075
01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:59,400
Speaker 3: to fraud. That's with a b. These scammers, they're not lucky.

1076
01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:02,760
Speaker 3: They got prepared. Do something about it. Protect your file.

1077
01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:06,360
Speaker 3: I did I use incognit I ncog n I they

1078
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,439
Speaker 3: go broker by broker, forcing each one of them to

1079
01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:12,120
Speaker 3: delete your file. You know those opt out forms that

1080
01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:14,360

1090
01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:48,360
Speaker 3: the blanking blank out of Iran. Well, that's what President

1091
01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:52,120
Speaker 3: Trump said. Don't look at me, Tony Katz. Tony Katz.

1092
01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:55,760
Speaker 3: Today it was a Ran that tried to hit US

1093
01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:59,639
Speaker 3: bases and US personnel and Jordan and other places. President

1094
01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:01,720
Speaker 3: Trump said, We'll be hitting them hard. They're going to

1095
01:10:01,720 --> 01:10:05,920
Speaker 3: get a beating. He said this on Fox News a

1096
01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:12,600
Speaker 3: brief interview he had with Trey yinst and further continued

1097
01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:17,840
Speaker 3: the conversation that negotiations will continue. Quote, We're going to

1098
01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:23,719
Speaker 3: let them keep talking. Sure, Okay, they don't make a deal,

1099
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:26,280
Speaker 3: then I go back and I finish the job. But

1100
01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:29,400
Speaker 3: that's going to take them forever to rebuild. I could

1101
01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:31,320
Speaker 3: take out most of their bridges in less than an hour,

1102
01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:35,080
Speaker 3: less than an hour. It really decimates the country. So

1103
01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:38,120
Speaker 3: those are big things. And then there's always the desalinization plans,

1104
01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:40,920
Speaker 3: and who am I hurting there? I'm hurting the people,

1105
01:10:41,160 --> 01:10:42,800
Speaker 3: So I'm not looking to do that. I just want

1106
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:46,200
Speaker 3: very simply, they cannot have a nuclear weapon. And what

1107
01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:48,760
Speaker 3: they have told you, mister President, is that they want

1108
01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:52,360
Speaker 3: a nuclear weapon, and they're not going to stomp pushing

1109
01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:55,960
Speaker 3: for a nuclear weapon, and there is no behavior change

1110
01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:59,479
Speaker 3: at all that is going to get them to stomp.

1111
01:11:00,360 --> 01:11:03,880
Speaker 3: They want to have dominion over the area and they

1112
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:07,360
Speaker 3: want to be able to threaten all of humanity for forever.

1113
01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:10,360
Speaker 3: And if they don't build it today, they're gonna try

1114
01:11:10,360 --> 01:11:14,120
Speaker 3: and build it tomorrow. They're clear. This isn't This isn't

1115
01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:16,639
Speaker 3: the Israelis, this isn't the Americans, This isn't some weirdo

1116
01:11:17,439 --> 01:11:21,479
Speaker 3: kind of thing conspiracy theory online. This is what the

1117
01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:26,639
Speaker 3: regime is telling you. So you have one option, and

1118
01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:29,760
Speaker 3: one option only, one ping only miss to facility. You

1119
01:11:29,880 --> 01:11:36,240
Speaker 3: have one option only and that is the end of

1120
01:11:36,240 --> 01:11:40,799
Speaker 3: the regime. And if it means taking out the bridges,

1121
01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:45,000
Speaker 3: taking out the power plants, yeah, that's what it means.

1122
01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:48,000
Speaker 3: And yes it's gonna be rough on the people, and

1123
01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:49,479
Speaker 3: we can help them because they're gonna have a lot

1124
01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:52,479
Speaker 3: of oil money with which to rebuild or to get

1125
01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:54,400
Speaker 3: to This is Tony Katts today.

1126
01:12:00,760 --> 01:12:05,120
Speaker 1: From Baul Hart Band and the Crossroads of America.

1127
01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:06,839
Speaker 3: It's Tony Katz today.

1128
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:11,000
Speaker 4: The Chairman has denied your assertion of privilege and directed

1129
01:12:11,040 --> 01:12:13,920
Speaker 4: you to answer, but you nonetheless refuse and stand on

1130
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:17,840
Speaker 4: privilege despite the existence of the pardon. The committee will

1131
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:20,880
Speaker 4: have to consider after this hearing what appropriate action should

1132
01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:23,840
Speaker 4: be taken against you for the failure to testify after

1133
01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:26,800
Speaker 4: being directed to do so. It's against the law to

1134
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 4: obstruct an investigation of Congress. There will be repercussions to

1135
01:12:31,120 --> 01:12:43,120
Speaker 4: your refusal to testify today, Sinner peters, you're not recognized.

1136
01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:46,640
Speaker 4: You're not recognized. If you are unruly, you will be

1137
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:47,879
Speaker 4: removed from the proceeding.

1138
01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:54,400
Speaker 3: So this went well, Holy cow, Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, guys,

1139
01:12:54,439 --> 01:12:58,320
Speaker 3: so good to be with you. Anthony Fauci, Doctor Anthony

1140
01:12:58,360 --> 01:13:03,040
Speaker 3: Fauci Liar was subpoena brought in front of the Center

1141
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:08,040
Speaker 3: Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee to testify regarding actions

1142
01:13:08,640 --> 01:13:15,040
Speaker 3: regarding COVID, the release of information showing that he quite

1143
01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:20,800
Speaker 3: clearly knew that he was chock full of fraud. And

1144
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:23,880
Speaker 3: he decides that what he's going to do is he's

1145
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:27,519
Speaker 3: not going to answer any questions. He is only going

1146
01:13:27,560 --> 01:13:32,960
Speaker 3: to plead the fifth That's it. And I mean he

1147
01:13:33,000 --> 01:13:37,920
Speaker 3: went on a he went on a tear about Rand Paul.

1148
01:13:37,960 --> 01:13:40,559
Speaker 3: But Rand Paul went on a tear about him. And

1149
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:42,559
Speaker 3: then his lawyer is sitting next to him, and he'd

1150
01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:44,360
Speaker 3: already been told you're not allowed to sit next to him.

1151
01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:49,720
Speaker 3: The lawyers aren't recognized as witnesses. Only Anthony Fauci is.

1152
01:13:50,360 --> 01:13:53,160
Speaker 3: But the lawyer sitting next to him, the lawyer won't leave,

1153
01:13:53,479 --> 01:13:55,599
Speaker 3: and then the lawyer wants to get into a fight

1154
01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:58,480
Speaker 3: with Senator Ran Paul, and Rand Paul's like, you're not recognized,

1155
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:02,160
Speaker 3: you're not even here, you don't get to have a say,

1156
01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:04,160
Speaker 3: and it got loud.

1157
01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:07,200
Speaker 4: You are not you are not recognized, and you you

1158
01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:11,800
Speaker 4: are not recognized, sir, sir, you are not recognized. You

1159
01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:19,320
Speaker 4: are not recognized. Security, we'll we'll hold off, but you

1160
01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:22,559
Speaker 4: will respect these proceedings. You were told not to sit

1161
01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:24,920
Speaker 4: at the table. You insist on sitting at the table,

1162
01:14:25,320 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 4: and we told you you would not be recognized. You

1163
01:14:28,280 --> 01:14:33,880
Speaker 4: are not invited here for testimony. Sir, you are being disruptive.

1164
01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:36,880
Speaker 4: Would you behave this way in a courtroom? No, because

1165
01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:39,200
Speaker 4: the judge would put you in jail. I can't do

1166
01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:41,960
Speaker 4: that today, but I can have you escorted from the premises.

1167
01:14:42,080 --> 01:14:44,360
Speaker 4: So I would say, sir, sit quietly and don't say

1168
01:14:44,400 --> 01:14:48,760
Speaker 4: another word. I said, sid quietly, you are not recognized.

1169
01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:52,960
Speaker 4: Another word and you're gone.

1170
01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:57,240
Speaker 11: He's not going to sick quietly, Swister chairman, I'd like

1171
01:14:57,280 --> 01:14:59,679
Speaker 11: to hear what the journey has to say.

1172
01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:05,080
Speaker 3: That's a democrat. That's a democrat who let him speak.

1173
01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:09,920
Speaker 3: He's not recognized that. It's as if there are rules,

1174
01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:11,840
Speaker 3: but when they don't want the rules, why have rules?

1175
01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:12,040
Speaker 1: Now?

1176
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:14,679
Speaker 3: This is how we feel about Congress all the time.

1177
01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:18,280
Speaker 3: And the most infuriating part of all this, all the lies,

1178
01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:20,240
Speaker 3: all the fraud, all the deceit, No one's gonna go

1179
01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:22,200
Speaker 3: to jail. This is the part that gets us crazy.

1180
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:25,880
Speaker 3: This is the part that drives us nuts. We see

1181
01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:30,280
Speaker 3: people in clear violation. Nothing happens to them. But if

1182
01:15:30,320 --> 01:15:33,920
Speaker 3: you jaywalk, you're going to jail. You post something online

1183
01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:35,840
Speaker 3: people don't like, they think you should be charged. I mean,

1184
01:15:35,840 --> 01:15:37,840
Speaker 3: that's certainly what happens in the UK. More and more

1185
01:15:37,840 --> 01:15:41,479
Speaker 3: people want that to happen in the US. That's the

1186
01:15:41,479 --> 01:15:45,400
Speaker 3: part that's nuts. So they're Senator Peters from Michigan, who's

1187
01:15:45,400 --> 01:15:47,640
Speaker 3: not running for reelection, saying I'd like to hear what

1188
01:15:47,680 --> 01:15:49,439
Speaker 3: he has to say, and Rand Paul's like, I don't

1189
01:15:49,439 --> 01:15:51,280
Speaker 3: think you understand how any of this works.

1190
01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:54,599
Speaker 4: He is not recognized by the committee or the chair.

1191
01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:58,040
Speaker 4: If he speaks again, he will be removed from the room.

1192
01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:02,240
Speaker 4: This testimony is from Anthony Fauci. This is not a

1193
01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:05,360
Speaker 4: game with his lawyers. He can advise, his lawyers can

1194
01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:08,719
Speaker 4: give him advice. He's got a half dozen here. They're

1195
01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:11,280
Speaker 4: all allowed to talk to him. Yes, all right, but

1196
01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:14,840
Speaker 4: the attorneys are not recognized. In fact, the attorney was

1197
01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:17,120
Speaker 4: told not to sit at the table and he's not

1198
01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:20,080
Speaker 4: obeying that recommendation. There's a row behind you, sir, that's

1199
01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:21,320
Speaker 4: where you were told to sit.

1200
01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:21,720
Speaker 3: And you're not.

1201
01:16:22,360 --> 01:16:24,280
Speaker 5: And now you're disrupting the proceedings.

1202
01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:27,000
Speaker 4: And so look, this is the way Anthony Fauci wants

1203
01:16:27,080 --> 01:16:30,040
Speaker 4: to be remembered for a lawyer not listening to the rules.

1204
01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:32,160
Speaker 4: That's the way you want to be remembered, and that's

1205
01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:34,800
Speaker 4: where you're going to do. You are not recognized, sir.

1206
01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:38,320
Speaker 4: The security police.

1207
01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:45,400
Speaker 5: Are moving from the room.

1208
01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:48,160
Speaker 3: And there it is, and security shows up. I love

1209
01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:54,759
Speaker 3: the applause, by the way. That's so great. Security shows

1210
01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:57,280
Speaker 3: up and he takes his time and he's putting this

1211
01:16:57,760 --> 01:17:02,840
Speaker 3: a little folder in his briefcase and he's grabbing the briefcase,

1212
01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:06,840
Speaker 3: taking his sweet time. Hey see you later, Anthony. I

1213
01:17:06,920 --> 01:17:11,960
Speaker 3: gotta go, and he walks off right there, escorting.

1214
01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:12,599
Speaker 12: Of the rag.

1215
01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:15,679
Speaker 4: Doctor Fauci will still have the advice of the other

1216
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:17,920
Speaker 4: half a dozen attorneys that he brought along today.

1217
01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:25,840
Speaker 3: It is it is something else that he pled the fifth.

1218
01:17:26,040 --> 01:17:28,160
Speaker 3: I mean, we did we did say this was going

1219
01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:31,559
Speaker 3: to happen. We certainly said it was possible that it

1220
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:35,760
Speaker 3: was going to happen. But he's doing it is. It's

1221
01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:39,639
Speaker 3: frustrating as can be. It is frustrating. Now some people

1222
01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:45,080
Speaker 3: have asked, wait, can he do this? Can he actually

1223
01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:51,440
Speaker 3: take the fifth? Because, as as Senator Paul noted repeatedly,

1224
01:17:53,000 --> 01:18:00,200
Speaker 3: he has a pardon remember he got pardoned by by

1225
01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:04,120
Speaker 3: Joe Biden. So for for what purpose is he taking

1226
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:09,960
Speaker 3: the fifth here? And one can argue, as Senator Paul argues,

1227
01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:20,200
Speaker 3: he is interfering. He is interfering in an investigation of Congress.

1228
01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:25,800
Speaker 3: So I must say that I would make the assumption

1229
01:18:27,280 --> 01:18:31,719
Speaker 3: that any citizen has the right to plead the fifth

1230
01:18:33,760 --> 01:18:36,599
Speaker 3: absolutely has the right to plead the fifth. I'm not

1231
01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:40,080
Speaker 3: going to say no, it is. It is absolutely up

1232
01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:46,080
Speaker 3: to the prosecution if you will to make a case,

1233
01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:49,759
Speaker 3: if you're going to argue it's something criminal, like I argue,

1234
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:53,200
Speaker 3: you got to be able to charge him. You gotta,

1235
01:18:53,280 --> 01:18:56,000
Speaker 3: you gotta, you gotta bring the charges. The dj has

1236
01:18:56,040 --> 01:19:00,120
Speaker 3: to do its work, but you have to make the case. Now,

1237
01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:03,519
Speaker 3: one could argue that this is the investigation part in

1238
01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:06,880
Speaker 3: this Congress. It is different. Not one hundred percent sure

1239
01:19:07,439 --> 01:19:10,320
Speaker 3: how that part is different. But this is how Anthony

1240
01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:14,599
Speaker 3: Fauci this is there the opening statement from Rand Paul

1241
01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:19,400
Speaker 3: took place, which was, look, you lied about everything. We

1242
01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:22,400
Speaker 3: saw this and then Gary Peters, who's the ranking member

1243
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:25,360
Speaker 3: of the Democrat made his little blah blah blah, and

1244
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:28,400
Speaker 3: then it goes to Fauci to make an opening statement.

1245
01:19:28,880 --> 01:19:32,680
Speaker 3: He makes the opening statement before pleading the fifth.

1246
01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:39,400
Speaker 10: Member, Peters, Members of the Committee, I served at the

1247
01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:43,679
Speaker 10: NIH for over fifty four years, thirty eight of those

1248
01:19:43,760 --> 01:19:47,360
Speaker 10: as Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

1249
01:19:48,640 --> 01:19:52,280
Speaker 10: Over that period, I proved that I believe in and

1250
01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:58,600
Speaker 10: respect the value of legitimate congressional oversight. In fact, I

1251
01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:04,559
Speaker 10: testified before and or briefed Senate and House Congressional Senate

1252
01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:10,679
Speaker 10: and House committees well over two hundred times over those.

1253
01:20:10,520 --> 01:20:11,519
Speaker 3: Thirty eight years.

1254
01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:17,680
Speaker 10: During and after the COVID pandemic, I have appeared multiple

1255
01:20:17,720 --> 01:20:22,639
Speaker 10: times for hearings in the Senate and the House, usually

1256
01:20:22,840 --> 01:20:28,920
Speaker 10: under oath, and sat for several days long transcribed sworn

1257
01:20:29,040 --> 01:20:35,360
Speaker 10: interviews answering questions about the very issues that are now

1258
01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:42,200
Speaker 10: the subject of this hearing. However, given Senator Paul's obvious

1259
01:20:42,360 --> 01:20:49,680
Speaker 10: obsession with calling for my prosecution, his repeated slanderous comments

1260
01:20:49,720 --> 01:20:57,880
Speaker 10: about me, and recently his publicly releasing my unredacted personal

1261
01:20:58,160 --> 01:21:05,120
Speaker 10: diary aimed at embarrassing and intimidating me, the only conclusion

1262
01:21:05,880 --> 01:21:09,920
Speaker 10: I can reach is that the sole reason he is

1263
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:13,479
Speaker 10: calling me before this committee is to get me to

1264
01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:20,920
Speaker 10: say something, anything that could vindicate his repeated public pledges

1265
01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:27,479
Speaker 10: that I end up in his words, quote behind bars unquote,

1266
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:34,400
Speaker 10: any reasonable person who has followed his unhinged obsession with

1267
01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:41,400
Speaker 10: me would readily come to the same conclusion. Therefore, although

1268
01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:45,280
Speaker 10: it pains me to do so, because of the respect

1269
01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:50,040
Speaker 10: I have for the legislative branch of government and my

1270
01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:55,919
Speaker 10: decades long record of cooperating with Congress, under the advice

1271
01:21:55,960 --> 01:21:59,880
Speaker 10: of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under the

1272
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:05,200
Speaker 10: Fifth Amendment of the Constitution to refrain from answering your questions.

1273
01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:09,760
Speaker 3: Thank you. So, he says that ran Paul has slandered.

1274
01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:14,320
Speaker 3: He said that ran Paul is guilty of intimidation. He

1275
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:20,480
Speaker 3: says that ran Paul is obsessed. He calls rand Paul unhinged,

1276
01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:23,160
Speaker 3: and then says, and now I'm not going to answer

1277
01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:29,719
Speaker 3: your questions. Heck of a guy. Look, I am clear

1278
01:22:29,920 --> 01:22:33,759
Speaker 3: in my assessment of Anthony Fauci. He is the fraud.

1279
01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:37,599
Speaker 3: But I will tell you that while that is true,

1280
01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:40,439
Speaker 3: and I'm going to share a whole bunch from this

1281
01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:43,639
Speaker 3: and the questions and the madness and the left's take

1282
01:22:43,720 --> 01:22:47,880
Speaker 3: on this, that they have a take of, how dare

1283
01:22:47,920 --> 01:22:52,719
Speaker 3: you go after this man? He's wrong? He clearly lied.

1284
01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:57,400
Speaker 3: He wrote one thing, he said another thing. He did this.

1285
01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:04,320
Speaker 3: They the Wuhan virology Lab. They knew it wasn't a

1286
01:23:04,360 --> 01:23:07,040
Speaker 3: wet market, and they admitted to nothing. They lied about

1287
01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:11,479
Speaker 3: all of it. That is horrifying. The damage done to

1288
01:23:11,520 --> 01:23:14,320
Speaker 3: the country is horrifying. And there are people who are like,

1289
01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:17,600
Speaker 3: why are we relitigating this? Because people need to be

1290
01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:21,360
Speaker 3: held to account. The IRS will go after somebody who

1291
01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:26,040
Speaker 3: didn't pay their taxes twelve years ago. They didn't pay

1292
01:23:26,080 --> 01:23:29,240
Speaker 3: three thousand dollars worth of taxes twelve years ago. This

1293
01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:32,800
Speaker 3: is a guy who cost billions and cost lives and

1294
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:35,800
Speaker 3: made people die alone. Never mind what we did to

1295
01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:40,759
Speaker 3: kids and not being able to go to school, isolating them,

1296
01:23:40,800 --> 01:23:45,320
Speaker 3: giving them fear as opposed to how we confront an issue.

1297
01:23:47,200 --> 01:23:49,400
Speaker 3: And they're like, how dare you litigate this? How dare

1298
01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:51,920
Speaker 3: you go over this? This man is a hero and

1299
01:23:51,960 --> 01:23:57,320
Speaker 3: a champion. He's not. Let's just say so. But I

1300
01:23:57,600 --> 01:24:01,320
Speaker 3: want to keep making this our gay And I've made

1301
01:24:01,360 --> 01:24:03,200
Speaker 3: it all over the place, and I've made it with

1302
01:24:03,280 --> 01:24:07,320
Speaker 3: friends who are also in media, radio, TV, things like that.

1303
01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:12,040
Speaker 3: I've made it with you, with others. The real story here,

1304
01:24:13,040 --> 01:24:15,320
Speaker 3: and I don't want anybody to lose sight of this.

1305
01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:23,799
Speaker 3: The real story here is the media. The real story

1306
01:24:23,880 --> 01:24:28,520
Speaker 3: has to be that the media never did any journalism.

1307
01:24:29,960 --> 01:24:35,040
Speaker 3: The media was thwarted from doing journalism. Those in the

1308
01:24:35,040 --> 01:24:39,240
Speaker 3: media who attacked those who did the actual journalism. You

1309
01:24:39,280 --> 01:24:44,040
Speaker 3: couldn't ask questions about COVID. You me the American people

1310
01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:49,880
Speaker 3: were silenced. Doctors who had a different view were silenced

1311
01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:57,080
Speaker 3: or called crack pots and discarded that. No one in

1312
01:24:57,120 --> 01:24:59,839
Speaker 3: the media said, wait a second, you said no masks,

1313
01:24:59,840 --> 01:25:02,160
Speaker 3: Now you say mass you said no this, Now he

1314
01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:05,360
Speaker 3: said this. There was no press, there was no push,

1315
01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:11,200
Speaker 3: there was no investigating. Donald Trump makes a phone call

1316
01:25:11,240 --> 01:25:15,840
Speaker 3: to Ukraine. They don't really investigate. All they do is

1317
01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:19,559
Speaker 3: use the words of Senator Adam Schiff formerly Congressman Adam

1318
01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:22,200
Speaker 3: Schiff and say, well, that's what happened. But we know

1319
01:25:22,320 --> 01:25:25,479
Speaker 3: that Adam Schiff lied when it comes to Russia. Russia,

1320
01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:29,519
Speaker 3: Russia and Russia Ukraine. Oh, I've got the evidence. I've

1321
01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:31,599
Speaker 3: got the goods. He said this to Chuck Todd back

1322
01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:34,120
Speaker 3: in the day, and Chuck Todd said, you have the proof.

1323
01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:36,519
Speaker 3: He goes, well, I think we're gonna get some information

1324
01:25:36,720 --> 01:25:38,840
Speaker 3: that's going to come out, and the information never came out.

1325
01:25:38,920 --> 01:25:41,760
Speaker 3: He just said it, and the press, not doing any

1326
01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:47,000
Speaker 3: actual work, went with it. They did no journalism on RUSSA, Russia, Russia.

1327
01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:49,479
Speaker 3: They did no journalism on the fact that Biden was

1328
01:25:49,520 --> 01:25:53,519
Speaker 3: incompetent and incapable, unable of running, unable to run the country.

1329
01:25:53,720 --> 01:25:56,479
Speaker 3: He wasn't running the country. A cabal ran the country,

1330
01:25:56,640 --> 01:26:00,320
Speaker 3: the auto pen. It took the debate for just some

1331
01:26:00,360 --> 01:26:02,839
Speaker 3: of them to admit what we all knew to be true.

1332
01:26:03,040 --> 01:26:06,679
Speaker 3: They did no investigation. They said, what hell Corin John

1333
01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:09,040
Speaker 3: Pierre said it was cheap fakes and this and that,

1334
01:26:09,080 --> 01:26:11,040
Speaker 3: and everyone said, oh yeah, this is just them going

1335
01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:15,240
Speaker 3: after Biden because he's so successful. They did no investigation.

1336
01:26:16,479 --> 01:26:18,440
Speaker 3: And when it comes to COVID, they did no investigation.

1337
01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:22,559
Speaker 3: They just repeated numbers, parroted numbers, and said, look how

1338
01:26:22,560 --> 01:26:26,080
Speaker 3: Trump is getting people killed. Some people want to argue,

1339
01:26:26,080 --> 01:26:27,879
Speaker 3: you know, Trump was in charge, he was the president.

1340
01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:32,479
Speaker 3: He handled this wrong. My governor in Indiana at the

1341
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:36,599
Speaker 3: time handled this wrong. Lots of governors did. They gave

1342
01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:43,920
Speaker 3: up their authority to doctors, unelected doctors. I never believe

1343
01:26:43,960 --> 01:26:47,719
Speaker 3: in giving my authority to a doctor. I'm not anti doctor.

1344
01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:52,720
Speaker 3: They're not in charge. The doctor says you should wear

1345
01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:56,360
Speaker 3: a mask and not leave the house, but that isn't

1346
01:26:56,520 --> 01:27:01,600
Speaker 3: what the constitution says. And this doctor does not preempt

1347
01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:06,479
Speaker 3: what are my rights? What kind of nonsense? And that's

1348
01:27:06,520 --> 01:27:09,719
Speaker 3: what they all should have said. And some governors did that. Hello,

1349
01:27:09,800 --> 01:27:13,840
Speaker 3: Ron DeSantis, how are you? Some governors said we're not

1350
01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:17,000
Speaker 3: gonna do this nonsense, We're not gonna play this game. Hello,

1351
01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:22,320
Speaker 3: Governor Brian Kemp of Georgia, how are you? They did

1352
01:27:22,360 --> 01:27:26,800
Speaker 3: the right thing. Anthony Fauci did not do the right thing,

1353
01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:30,920
Speaker 3: and the media didn't care as long as they could

1354
01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:36,680
Speaker 3: hurt Trump and they would protect this guy. That's the story.

1355
01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:41,320
Speaker 3: I have three different examples of how they acted and

1356
01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:44,559
Speaker 3: the lack of journalism. They engage and they demand respect

1357
01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:50,679
Speaker 3: they deserve none. How can anybody still think that CNN

1358
01:27:50,880 --> 01:27:53,240
Speaker 3: is a place of news? How could you possibly think this?

1359
01:27:53,640 --> 01:27:55,479
Speaker 3: And I have friends who go on CNA. Back in

1360
01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:56,840
Speaker 3: the day, they used to go on CNNA. I have

1361
01:27:56,840 --> 01:28:01,240
Speaker 3: friends who go on CNN, They go on Abby Phillips Show.

1362
01:28:01,960 --> 01:28:04,320
Speaker 3: How there comes a moment where you got to say, Okay,

1363
01:28:04,320 --> 01:28:06,920
Speaker 3: I'm done here. Well, it's good to be on TV.

1364
01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:10,600
Speaker 3: And it's good to confront these people. They have to

1365
01:28:10,640 --> 01:28:16,080
Speaker 3: be starved of their sponsors. They're not having a conversation.

1366
01:28:16,479 --> 01:28:20,599
Speaker 3: The other day, I was a moynihan Linda moynihan Lydia,

1367
01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:24,840
Speaker 3: and moynihan was bringing up Fauci and Abby Phillip and

1368
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:26,800
Speaker 3: the two other Democrats on the palas. Oh no, no,

1369
01:28:26,800 --> 01:28:28,680
Speaker 3: we're not talking about We're not gonna go into that.

1370
01:28:28,720 --> 01:28:32,080
Speaker 3: We're not. That's exactly the stuff. They don't want to

1371
01:28:32,120 --> 01:28:36,280
Speaker 3: have this conversation because they are the ones who are

1372
01:28:36,400 --> 01:28:41,559
Speaker 3: complicit in allowing the lies to go forward and never

1373
01:28:41,640 --> 01:28:46,599
Speaker 3: engaging in journalism, never questioning. Because they don't engage in journalism.

1374
01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:49,479
Speaker 3: They engage in narrative. We've talked about this before. How

1375
01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:53,760
Speaker 3: right we are. They engage in narrative solely and exclusively,

1376
01:28:54,160 --> 01:28:58,439
Speaker 3: and they don't care about the journalism part. And for

1377
01:28:58,600 --> 01:29:01,120
Speaker 3: that they have to be punished. And the only way

1378
01:29:01,160 --> 01:29:04,200
Speaker 3: you can punish these people is not engage with their

1379
01:29:04,240 --> 01:29:08,599
Speaker 3: sponsors and not engage with their content. They're the enemy.

1380
01:29:09,720 --> 01:29:12,520
Speaker 3: They are failures at their job and they deserve no respect.

1381
01:29:14,880 --> 01:29:18,800
Speaker 3: Can Fauci take the fifth I think he can. Is

1382
01:29:18,840 --> 01:29:22,120
Speaker 3: there an issue with the pardon and the fifth. Maybe

1383
01:29:22,160 --> 01:29:27,559
Speaker 3: is he obstructing an investigation? Possibly, but I don't know

1384
01:29:27,600 --> 01:29:33,400
Speaker 3: how you compel the citizen to speak. He's innocent until

1385
01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:36,720
Speaker 3: proven guilty, and that is the standard by which we

1386
01:29:36,760 --> 01:29:39,400
Speaker 3: engage a lot of these conversations. Is it different in

1387
01:29:39,439 --> 01:29:41,880
Speaker 3: this case. Well, we're gonna have to check the legal

1388
01:29:41,920 --> 01:29:44,719
Speaker 3: on that. We're gonna have to see what happens next.

1389
01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:49,760
Speaker 3: But if you're asking, oh, Anthony Fauci is guilty, and

1390
01:29:49,840 --> 01:29:53,240
Speaker 3: Anthony Fauci is despicable. And the less respect you have

1391
01:29:53,320 --> 01:29:57,599
Speaker 3: for the man, the smarter you are, no harm should

1392
01:29:57,600 --> 01:30:01,120
Speaker 3: befall him the way he harmed the country. Let the

1393
01:30:01,160 --> 01:30:04,439
Speaker 3: system do its job. This is Tony Katz today, Senator

1394
01:30:04,479 --> 01:30:08,080
Speaker 3: Lindsay Graham. The funeral yesterday, laid to rest today, and

1395
01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:13,320
Speaker 3: now twelve Republicans have filed to run for his seat.

1396
01:30:13,400 --> 01:30:19,559
Speaker 3: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, A pleasure twelve. Yeah, that's

1397
01:30:19,640 --> 01:30:23,840
Speaker 3: a that's a lot. That is going to be a lot.

1398
01:30:23,880 --> 01:30:24,000
Speaker 10: Now.

1399
01:30:24,080 --> 01:30:28,599
Speaker 3: Darlene Graham is going to run. She is the sister,

1400
01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:32,080
Speaker 3: she was appointed to finish the rest of his term.

1401
01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:36,200
Speaker 3: She is going to run. I really don't know where

1402
01:30:36,280 --> 01:30:41,320
Speaker 3: the appetite is going to be for her. On the

1403
01:30:41,439 --> 01:30:45,200
Speaker 3: idea of running. I this is about whether or not

1404
01:30:45,280 --> 01:30:48,599
Speaker 3: you know, we know South Carolina politics in detail. There

1405
01:30:48,640 --> 01:30:50,320
Speaker 3: are some people who are going to run. Mark Sandford,

1406
01:30:51,080 --> 01:30:54,479
Speaker 3: the former congressman, the former governor who of course ruined

1407
01:30:54,479 --> 01:30:58,760
Speaker 3: his own chances by hiking the Appalachian Trail while he

1408
01:30:58,880 --> 01:31:03,360
Speaker 3: was with his mistress. Uh, you've got US Representative Ralph Norman,

1409
01:31:03,560 --> 01:31:07,280
Speaker 3: he ran for governor. He has now entered the race.

1410
01:31:07,479 --> 01:31:11,080
Speaker 3: Nancy Mace, who ran for governor and came in fifth,

1411
01:31:11,439 --> 01:31:16,720
Speaker 3: is going to enter the race as well. A lot

1412
01:31:16,760 --> 01:31:21,160
Speaker 3: of different people getting into this race. It's gonna it's

1413
01:31:21,160 --> 01:31:23,720
Speaker 3: gonna be a real fight. It's gonna be because this

1414
01:31:23,800 --> 01:31:27,120
Speaker 3: is this is the big time, this is the moment,

1415
01:31:27,240 --> 01:31:29,439
Speaker 3: and they're all trying to take advantage of it. It's

1416
01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:31,040
Speaker 3: gonna be one to watch. Keep it here.

1417
01:31:31,360 --> 01:31:39,280
Speaker 9: This is Tony Katz today.

1418
01:31:40,080 --> 01:31:42,880
Speaker 3: Canadian tourism is down in the United States and it's

1419
01:31:42,920 --> 01:31:48,160
Speaker 3: costing US billions. I mean, that was the headline, Canadian

1420
01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:51,640
Speaker 3: tourism to the US fell twenty five, twenty five. I

1421
01:31:51,680 --> 01:31:55,400
Speaker 3: am not in any way surprised, Tony Katz. Tony Katz today,

1422
01:31:55,439 --> 01:31:58,720
Speaker 3: always a pleasure to be with you guys, Always a

1423
01:31:58,800 --> 01:32:01,280
Speaker 3: pleasure to be with. You find everything I do at

1424
01:32:01,320 --> 01:32:06,400
Speaker 3: Tony Katz dot com. Uh. The story of the Canadians

1425
01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:10,600
Speaker 3: is they really did not like at all or in

1426
01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:15,360
Speaker 3: any way the tariffs. They did not like or enjoy

1427
01:32:16,360 --> 01:32:19,280
Speaker 3: being called the fifty first state. They didn't enjoy Justin

1428
01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:25,040
Speaker 3: Judeaux being called governor, and they responded by not electing Poliev,

1429
01:32:25,520 --> 01:32:29,360
Speaker 3: Pierre Poliev, the Conservative for prime minister. They voted for

1430
01:32:29,439 --> 01:32:33,040
Speaker 3: Mark Carney, which to me that that's kind of a backfire.

1431
01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:37,120
Speaker 3: It's not necessarily a backfire for us, though I would

1432
01:32:37,120 --> 01:32:40,720
Speaker 3: have liked an actual ally in Canada, but certainly a

1433
01:32:40,760 --> 01:32:44,320
Speaker 3: backfire for the Canadian people. You have a leftist who's

1434
01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:47,400
Speaker 3: doing an absolutely terrible job, you don't want him anymore,

1435
01:32:47,479 --> 01:32:51,439
Speaker 3: so you vote for another leftist. I mean, that's just

1436
01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:54,120
Speaker 3: a weird thing to do to yourself. That's a very

1437
01:32:54,240 --> 01:32:58,080
Speaker 3: very weird thing to do. What was not weird was

1438
01:32:58,160 --> 01:33:01,000
Speaker 3: Canadian saying we don't like it. I know never understood

1439
01:33:01,320 --> 01:33:03,720
Speaker 3: how people could get upset at Canadians. They're like, you

1440
01:33:03,760 --> 01:33:07,000
Speaker 3: can't talk to us like that. They're proud of their country,

1441
01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:09,800
Speaker 3: they're proud of who they are. We may disagree on

1442
01:33:09,800 --> 01:33:11,720
Speaker 3: all the hosts of things, but the idea that some

1443
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:14,360
Speaker 3: of the Canadian wants to be told that their second rate,

1444
01:33:15,120 --> 01:33:18,080
Speaker 3: that they're just America's fifty first state. They don't want that.

1445
01:33:19,600 --> 01:33:23,639
Speaker 3: You could appreciate that to the best charity of people.

1446
01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:25,040
Speaker 3: They don't want they don't want to be treated that way.

1447
01:33:25,080 --> 01:33:26,200
Speaker 3: They don't want to be spoken to you that way.

1448
01:33:26,200 --> 01:33:28,800
Speaker 3: They would think that that's that's kind of crazy, it's

1449
01:33:28,880 --> 01:33:32,360
Speaker 3: kind of weird that, and people got mad, on, who

1450
01:33:32,439 --> 01:33:35,759
Speaker 3: do you think you are, Canada? What you wouldn't accept

1451
01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:39,479
Speaker 3: that for a second As an American I wouldn't, So

1452
01:33:39,520 --> 01:33:43,640
Speaker 3: it wasn't surprising as far as I'm concerned. And I

1453
01:33:43,840 --> 01:33:45,519
Speaker 3: wasn't surprised when they said, well, we're not going to

1454
01:33:45,560 --> 01:33:48,920
Speaker 3: drink bourbon anymore, and we saw bourbon sales go down

1455
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:51,519
Speaker 3: in Canada, and people looked at that and said, well,

1456
01:33:51,520 --> 01:33:54,720
Speaker 3: that's the reason that you've got so many issues with distilleries. No,

1457
01:33:55,320 --> 01:33:58,080
Speaker 3: it's not. You can attribute part of it, but it's

1458
01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:01,400
Speaker 3: actually a smaller part compared to culture changes in the

1459
01:34:01,520 --> 01:34:05,559
Speaker 3: United States, including coming out of COVID, people going back

1460
01:34:05,600 --> 01:34:08,240
Speaker 3: to work, no longer having free time and free dollars.

1461
01:34:08,640 --> 01:34:13,120
Speaker 3: Because bourbon sold like a mother. During COVID, it was nuts.

1462
01:34:13,360 --> 01:34:16,000
Speaker 3: Cigars did very well too. What's super weird? Do you

1463
01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:18,639
Speaker 3: guys know? I follow this stuff. I host Eat, Drink, Smoke.

1464
01:34:18,680 --> 01:34:23,120
Speaker 3: It's the largest cigar and bourbon radio show in the country.

1465
01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:28,280
Speaker 3: Cigars are still maintaining. It's really it is a little fascinating.

1466
01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:34,880
Speaker 3: Bourbon did not. It just didn't maintain. And part of

1467
01:34:34,920 --> 01:34:37,599
Speaker 3: it is COVID. As I said, right, people no longer

1468
01:34:37,680 --> 01:34:40,320
Speaker 3: had the free time or the free dollars. They couldn't

1469
01:34:40,320 --> 01:34:42,240
Speaker 3: sit home and try things and drink things and then

1470
01:34:42,479 --> 01:34:47,519
Speaker 3: drink a little more things. You have the glp ones right,

1471
01:34:47,560 --> 01:34:51,360
Speaker 3: the w goovies, the zep bounds, the ozempics, which change

1472
01:34:51,439 --> 01:34:55,360
Speaker 3: how people interact with these things. They lose appetite for

1473
01:34:55,479 --> 01:34:58,760
Speaker 3: the alcohol. Then you have a younger generation that isn't

1474
01:34:58,840 --> 01:35:01,360
Speaker 3: interested in drinking at all. That's where you get the

1475
01:35:01,360 --> 01:35:05,599
Speaker 3: non alcoholic beers, groups like athletic and others, and they're

1476
01:35:05,640 --> 01:35:09,479
Speaker 3: not drinking brown liquor. They're just not interested. They don't

1477
01:35:09,479 --> 01:35:12,040
Speaker 3: want it. So there are massive cultural changes that have

1478
01:35:12,080 --> 01:35:16,960
Speaker 3: taken place. Generational changes. You have medicinal changes. That's where

1479
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:20,679
Speaker 3: the great majority of change comes from. You also could

1480
01:35:20,720 --> 01:35:25,720
Speaker 3: have in basic understandings of business that there was over extension,

1481
01:35:26,880 --> 01:35:29,360
Speaker 3: kind of like a belief that the good times are

1482
01:35:29,360 --> 01:35:32,280
Speaker 3: going to last for forever, which is not the way

1483
01:35:32,320 --> 01:35:36,000
Speaker 3: it works. Also, if they ran out of bourbon, Let's

1484
01:35:36,040 --> 01:35:39,000
Speaker 3: say there was a four year bourbon. Right, it's a

1485
01:35:39,000 --> 01:35:41,840
Speaker 3: straight bourbon. But it's a four year bourbon, so not

1486
01:35:41,920 --> 01:35:44,920
Speaker 3: too long in the barrel. What most people consider the

1487
01:35:44,960 --> 01:35:48,360
Speaker 3: baseline of acceptable. Remember it bourbon goes into a barrel

1488
01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:52,280
Speaker 3: and then out of a barrel. That's bourbon. That's all

1489
01:35:52,280 --> 01:35:55,519
Speaker 3: it has to do. Into the chart oak barrel first

1490
01:35:55,600 --> 01:35:57,920
Speaker 3: use charto oak barrel, and then out of the barrel.

1491
01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:01,120
Speaker 3: That's all you need to be bourbon. It does not

1492
01:36:02,080 --> 01:36:04,639
Speaker 3: have to be in there for any amount of time.

1493
01:36:05,400 --> 01:36:10,719
Speaker 3: Straight bourbon has to be in there for a minimum

1494
01:36:10,760 --> 01:36:15,040
Speaker 3: of two years. That's the difference. To be called a

1495
01:36:15,080 --> 01:36:19,879
Speaker 3: straight bourbon, it has to spend two years in the barrel.

1496
01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:22,559
Speaker 3: It also has to go in at a certain level

1497
01:36:22,560 --> 01:36:24,400
Speaker 3: out at a certain level. So it's eighty percent of

1498
01:36:24,400 --> 01:36:26,759
Speaker 3: alcohol by volume, so it can go into the barrel

1499
01:36:26,760 --> 01:36:29,599
Speaker 3: at one hundred and sixty proof. No sorry, sorry, sorry sorry,

1500
01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:31,640
Speaker 3: it cannot go into the barrel at more than one

1501
01:36:31,720 --> 01:36:36,000
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty five proof. It cannot be distilled more

1502
01:36:36,040 --> 01:36:39,120
Speaker 3: than one hundred and sixty proof, just so we understand

1503
01:36:39,120 --> 01:36:40,920
Speaker 3: each other. Gosh, I didn't want to make that mistake.

1504
01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:44,160
Speaker 3: That would be embarrassing stuff. I actually have a book

1505
01:36:44,200 --> 01:36:48,760
Speaker 3: on this, Let's Go Bourbon. It lays all of this out.

1506
01:36:49,120 --> 01:36:52,599
Speaker 3: Let's Go Bourbon was my first book with Fingers Maloy,

1507
01:36:53,240 --> 01:36:55,080
Speaker 3: my co host, an a shrink Smoke, and it really

1508
01:36:55,160 --> 01:36:56,880
Speaker 3: is just a bourbon reader. It wasn't meant to be

1509
01:36:56,920 --> 01:36:59,240
Speaker 3: anything else other than something you can have in the bathroom.

1510
01:36:59,640 --> 01:37:02,240
Speaker 3: The law, some basic facts, some cool quotes, just a

1511
01:37:02,240 --> 01:37:06,360
Speaker 3: fun little reader of a book, something enjoyable. Let's Go Barbecue,

1512
01:37:06,400 --> 01:37:09,719
Speaker 3: the barbecue book that got more into stories and theories

1513
01:37:09,760 --> 01:37:12,680
Speaker 3: and things like that. And I've just been remiss in

1514
01:37:12,760 --> 01:37:15,000
Speaker 3: the third book, Let's Go Grill, which is a grilling book.

1515
01:37:15,040 --> 01:37:18,000
Speaker 3: And then I've been forever working on a cigar book.

1516
01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:19,720
Speaker 3: But I have real plans for that. I'm not going

1517
01:37:19,760 --> 01:37:21,880
Speaker 3: to do it until I can do it right. But

1518
01:37:21,960 --> 01:37:25,120
Speaker 3: that's straight bourbon. My point to you is four years

1519
01:37:25,120 --> 01:37:26,840
Speaker 3: in the barrel to be straight bourbon. My point to

1520
01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:29,880
Speaker 3: you is you can't rush that. You can't you can't

1521
01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:33,080
Speaker 3: force that. You can't. Time is time. I don't care

1522
01:37:33,120 --> 01:37:34,639
Speaker 3: how much I ought there is, and I don't care

1523
01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:37,920
Speaker 3: how broad band the world is. You cannot rush a

1524
01:37:38,000 --> 01:37:41,360
Speaker 3: four year bourbon. It has to take four years. So

1525
01:37:41,600 --> 01:37:44,040
Speaker 3: did any of these distillers get over their skis? All right,

1526
01:37:44,080 --> 01:37:45,960
Speaker 3: we'll get more in the barrel, we'll do more of this,

1527
01:37:46,080 --> 01:37:48,400
Speaker 3: We'll build out here, we'll build out there. The market

1528
01:37:48,640 --> 01:37:52,800
Speaker 3: didn't necessarily agree to those conditions. The market turned and

1529
01:37:52,840 --> 01:37:55,640
Speaker 3: people had issues. And I won't be surprised if there

1530
01:37:55,640 --> 01:37:58,160
Speaker 3: are a lot more small distilleries that go out and

1531
01:37:58,200 --> 01:38:02,439
Speaker 3: get gobbled up, et cetera. So when they stopped buying bourbon,

1532
01:38:02,479 --> 01:38:05,160
Speaker 3: I understood it. But they didn't totally stop buying bourbon.

1533
01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:08,840
Speaker 3: Some provinces did. Some provinces still buying bourbon to this day.

1534
01:38:10,200 --> 01:38:12,639
Speaker 3: When they said they weren't going to buy some US products,

1535
01:38:12,640 --> 01:38:15,080
Speaker 3: that made perfect sense. Well, they weren't going to buy

1536
01:38:15,160 --> 01:38:20,960
Speaker 3: US products. They were upset, they were angry. Now they're

1537
01:38:21,000 --> 01:38:26,400
Speaker 3: spending less on tourism. Canadians spent thirteen point three billion

1538
01:38:26,479 --> 01:38:31,040
Speaker 3: dollars last year, down from nearly fifteen billion in twenty

1539
01:38:31,080 --> 01:38:34,799
Speaker 3: twenty four. Wait a second, how is that twenty five percent?

1540
01:38:36,840 --> 01:38:39,040
Speaker 3: How is it possible that they spend thirteen point three

1541
01:38:39,040 --> 01:38:42,479
Speaker 3: billion in twenty twenty five fifteen billion in twenty twenty four.

1542
01:38:42,880 --> 01:38:45,000
Speaker 3: That's not twenty five percent. How do you get to

1543
01:38:45,040 --> 01:38:48,120
Speaker 3: twenty five percent. I'm looking at the numbers from CBS

1544
01:38:48,120 --> 01:38:50,600
Speaker 3: News and that does not make any sense to me

1545
01:38:50,720 --> 01:38:54,599
Speaker 3: at all. One point seven billion is not twenty five

1546
01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:59,200
Speaker 3: percent of fifteen billion. So that twenty five percent seems

1547
01:38:59,200 --> 01:39:02,639
Speaker 3: pretty mislead based on the numbers they're providing. But this

1548
01:39:02,720 --> 01:39:06,559
Speaker 3: is not this is not at all surprising, guys. It's

1549
01:39:06,640 --> 01:39:11,760
Speaker 3: not surprising that there would be less tourism. It is

1550
01:39:11,840 --> 01:39:18,519
Speaker 3: a rational response. And I'm amazed that people who could

1551
01:39:18,520 --> 01:39:22,880
Speaker 3: be in any way angry at Canadians there's going to

1552
01:39:22,920 --> 01:39:26,000
Speaker 3: be a response. There's always a response to an action.

1553
01:39:28,200 --> 01:39:35,080
Speaker 3: The human condition has changed absolutely. Not the Senate not

1554
01:39:35,200 --> 01:39:39,920
Speaker 3: talking about Canada anymore. They are setting up the votes

1555
01:39:40,240 --> 01:39:45,479
Speaker 3: for Russia sanctions. I do not know the extent of

1556
01:39:45,520 --> 01:39:50,200
Speaker 3: the conversations that the late Lindsay Graham had with Vladimir Selenski,

1557
01:39:51,400 --> 01:39:53,720
Speaker 3: but it's very clear that he was coming back with

1558
01:39:53,880 --> 01:39:55,639
Speaker 3: sanctions and saying we're going to do this. So there

1559
01:39:55,680 --> 01:39:59,880
Speaker 3: was the phone call that Graham had with President Trump

1560
01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:03,960
Speaker 3: in like the hour before he died, and this was

1561
01:40:04,040 --> 01:40:09,680
Speaker 3: clearly a part of it. The Russians have miscalculated because

1562
01:40:11,040 --> 01:40:15,920
Speaker 3: Zelensky has well calculated. I said this yesterday, but we

1563
01:40:15,960 --> 01:40:21,599
Speaker 3: should be clear. He has learned. He has learned. There's

1564
01:40:21,600 --> 01:40:23,280
Speaker 3: a way you have to do things, and there's a

1565
01:40:23,280 --> 01:40:24,760
Speaker 3: way you have to deal with Trump that might be

1566
01:40:24,760 --> 01:40:26,479
Speaker 3: different than the way you deal with other world leaders.

1567
01:40:26,479 --> 01:40:28,400
Speaker 3: And there's a way you have to deal with America,

1568
01:40:28,439 --> 01:40:32,320
Speaker 3: and there's a way you get your story out there. Yes,

1569
01:40:32,439 --> 01:40:35,479
Speaker 3: Russia is the aggressor, and I wholeheartedly agree that Russia

1570
01:40:35,520 --> 01:40:37,479
Speaker 3: has to be thwarted, and it's better to thwart them

1571
01:40:37,680 --> 01:40:40,000
Speaker 3: while they're trying to mess with Ukraine than if they're

1572
01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:42,760
Speaker 3: on the border of a NATO nation that forces us

1573
01:40:42,800 --> 01:40:46,720
Speaker 3: to fight. Russia is the aggressor, and Russia must be

1574
01:40:46,840 --> 01:40:51,160
Speaker 3: dealt with, of course, and it's better to help Ukraine

1575
01:40:51,400 --> 01:40:56,120
Speaker 3: to force Russia to lose treasure. They can't keep this

1576
01:40:56,360 --> 01:41:00,320
Speaker 3: up for forever. They don't have the money. They can

1577
01:41:00,360 --> 01:41:02,280
Speaker 3: throw a lot of bodies at an issue, but they

1578
01:41:02,320 --> 01:41:05,920
Speaker 3: don't have the people. And this is turning against Putin.

1579
01:41:05,960 --> 01:41:08,880
Speaker 3: If you think that for a moment, Putin doesn't understand this,

1580
01:41:08,960 --> 01:41:11,080
Speaker 3: and Putin doesn't know that he has to deal with this.

1581
01:41:11,120 --> 01:41:15,760
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, that's on seriousness. Can Putin kill his political enemies, Well,

1582
01:41:15,800 --> 01:41:17,920
Speaker 3: of course he can kill his political enemies, He's done

1583
01:41:17,920 --> 01:41:22,280
Speaker 3: it many times before. But you have people who are

1584
01:41:22,320 --> 01:41:25,960
Speaker 3: being affected, family members being killed because they're being thrown

1585
01:41:25,960 --> 01:41:27,920
Speaker 3: into the front lines. They don't even know what to do.

1586
01:41:28,040 --> 01:41:32,080
Speaker 3: There is no training of a military whatsoever, and economic

1587
01:41:32,120 --> 01:41:39,479
Speaker 3: hardship of plenty. So the Senate on Tuesday started working

1588
01:41:39,520 --> 01:41:43,640
Speaker 3: on this sanctions bill, and it's very possible it is

1589
01:41:43,800 --> 01:41:48,879
Speaker 3: named for Lindsay Graham, that this was the final steps

1590
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:51,160
Speaker 3: in putting it together. That's what Graham was going to

1591
01:41:51,200 --> 01:41:57,160
Speaker 3: work on. And it targets Russian oil sales, very bad

1592
01:41:57,240 --> 01:42:03,679
Speaker 3: news for China. Everything always comes back to China, every

1593
01:42:03,720 --> 01:42:09,240
Speaker 3: single moment, every single hour of every single day. Everything

1594
01:42:09,920 --> 01:42:17,640
Speaker 3: is a move to thwart China. The series of lawmakers Blumenthal,

1595
01:42:17,840 --> 01:42:21,000
Speaker 3: the guy who lied about his Vietnam service, Democratic Connecticut,

1596
01:42:21,160 --> 01:42:25,040
Speaker 3: Jarlene Graham, who is the senator replacing her brother Lindsey

1597
01:42:25,040 --> 01:42:28,360
Speaker 3: Graham for the right remainder of his term. Senator Katie

1598
01:42:28,360 --> 01:42:32,839
Speaker 3: Britta of Alabama. Jeans Shahem, Democrat New Hampshire, Roger Wicker,

1599
01:42:32,880 --> 01:42:36,280
Speaker 3: who's a Republican from Mississippi, and Jim rish who is

1600
01:42:36,320 --> 01:42:40,479
Speaker 3: a Republican from Idaho, saying they've got a deal to

1601
01:42:40,560 --> 01:42:44,679
Speaker 3: combine the Russia sanctions package with the sanctions on Iran.

1602
01:42:46,479 --> 01:42:49,280
Speaker 3: We are proud to announce an agreement on legislation to

1603
01:42:49,280 --> 01:42:52,799
Speaker 3: stop purchasers of Russian oil and gas from fueling Putin's

1604
01:42:53,080 --> 01:42:56,879
Speaker 3: Putin's Putin's war machine. Sorry about that, and to continue

1605
01:42:56,920 --> 01:43:00,639
Speaker 3: restricting the Iranian regime's ability to support terrorism and build

1606
01:43:00,680 --> 01:43:04,640
Speaker 3: its nuclear program. What I love about this statement is

1607
01:43:04,640 --> 01:43:10,160
Speaker 3: that it admits that Iran supports terrorism. Very damaging for

1608
01:43:10,280 --> 01:43:12,599
Speaker 3: Democrats who want to say, well, Rand never did anything

1609
01:43:12,600 --> 01:43:17,800
Speaker 3: to us. Not true, and this proves it. There's no

1610
01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:20,439
Speaker 3: greater way, they write to honor Centertorgram's legacy than to

1611
01:43:20,439 --> 01:43:23,400
Speaker 3: move forward with this bipartisan agreement. And we look forward

1612
01:43:23,720 --> 01:43:29,320
Speaker 3: to today's vote. This is good, This is good news. Now.

1613
01:43:29,360 --> 01:43:35,000
Speaker 3: We should also note that the American perception on Ukraine

1614
01:43:35,080 --> 01:43:41,280
Speaker 3: has changed incredibly. So has changed, and part of this,

1615
01:43:41,520 --> 01:43:45,080
Speaker 3: one could say, well, is Trump's now willingness to work

1616
01:43:45,120 --> 01:43:48,920
Speaker 3: with Ukraine. There's also there was a weird talk that

1617
01:43:48,960 --> 01:43:51,360
Speaker 3: maybe some Democrats are no longer so happy with Ukraine.

1618
01:43:52,040 --> 01:43:54,960
Speaker 3: Maybe they don't want to do this anymore, even though

1619
01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:59,320
Speaker 3: they were all about it a few years back. So

1620
01:43:59,400 --> 01:44:03,080
Speaker 3: they're moving with political wins. What Trump has said, and

1621
01:44:03,120 --> 01:44:05,839
Speaker 3: we've talked about this before, is that you see Ukraine

1622
01:44:05,880 --> 01:44:08,840
Speaker 3: learning how to handle itself. You see Ukraine building out

1623
01:44:08,960 --> 01:44:11,080
Speaker 3: this this drone capability, and they prove themselves to be

1624
01:44:11,080 --> 01:44:15,320
Speaker 3: outrageously effective. They have seen from the dust up in

1625
01:44:15,360 --> 01:44:21,000
Speaker 3: the Oval Office to now that Zelensky has learned how

1626
01:44:21,000 --> 01:44:24,320
Speaker 3: to engage in actions as a leader, never mind how

1627
01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:26,519
Speaker 3: to appease Trump. All Right, he's wearing the sports coat

1628
01:44:26,520 --> 01:44:28,920
Speaker 3: when he visits the Oval office now right, it's not

1629
01:44:28,960 --> 01:44:32,720
Speaker 3: even a full suit, but it's close. But he understands that.

1630
01:44:32,800 --> 01:44:35,360
Speaker 3: What his argument is that we are taking on this

1631
01:44:35,400 --> 01:44:38,120
Speaker 3: aggressor that's a threat to the world into Western civilization,

1632
01:44:38,640 --> 01:44:41,160
Speaker 3: and we are happy to take it on. We're not

1633
01:44:41,240 --> 01:44:45,040
Speaker 3: looking for a handout. We are looking for assistance to

1634
01:44:45,120 --> 01:44:47,519
Speaker 3: allow us to do the job of taking on this

1635
01:44:47,560 --> 01:44:50,360
Speaker 3: fight for you, which is what I believe he learned

1636
01:44:50,360 --> 01:44:56,880
Speaker 3: from the Israelis. And that argument works because one could argue,

1637
01:44:56,880 --> 01:44:59,719
Speaker 3: if you don't want to give up American blood better

1638
01:44:59,720 --> 01:45:02,840
Speaker 3: there than ours. And you say to me, Tony, that's cold.

1639
01:45:02,920 --> 01:45:05,719
Speaker 3: I'm also saying to you that is how it's viewed.

1640
01:45:06,720 --> 01:45:09,760
Speaker 3: And also I didn't say anything that you wouldn't say

1641
01:45:09,760 --> 01:45:12,400
Speaker 3: to yourself in the deep dark recesses of your mind. Yeah,

1642
01:45:12,400 --> 01:45:15,240
Speaker 3: that is right. They're the ones that are in this fight.

1643
01:45:15,320 --> 01:45:17,439
Speaker 3: They have to actually be in it, and they've shown

1644
01:45:17,479 --> 01:45:20,280
Speaker 3: they can be in it. And so this has changed.

1645
01:45:20,680 --> 01:45:23,400
Speaker 3: But the sanctions package, I can't wait to dig in.

1646
01:45:23,920 --> 01:45:27,320
Speaker 3: If it's including Iran, and it amidst that Iran as terrorists,

1647
01:45:27,439 --> 01:45:30,880
Speaker 3: it's a double hit for the left. Even though we've

1648
01:45:30,920 --> 01:45:33,720
Speaker 3: got some Democrats in here with this bipartisan agreement, Can

1649
01:45:33,760 --> 01:45:35,960
Speaker 3: the left bring themselves to vote for this because it's

1650
01:45:35,960 --> 01:45:38,880
Speaker 3: the admission that taking on the terrorist regime of Iran

1651
01:45:38,920 --> 01:45:42,400
Speaker 3: and ending them is the right thing to do, and

1652
01:45:42,520 --> 01:45:47,599
Speaker 3: more sanctions prove the point. Interesting stuff, keep it here.

1653
01:45:47,760 --> 01:45:50,720
Speaker 3: This is Tony Kats today. So it should be an

1654
01:45:50,800 --> 01:45:54,599
Speaker 3: interesting weekend because I assume nothing's going to happen until

1655
01:45:54,640 --> 01:45:58,839
Speaker 3: the weekend. With President Trump saying he's gonna hit Iran

1656
01:45:59,000 --> 01:46:02,400
Speaker 3: hard for sending missiles at US bases and Jordan and

1657
01:46:02,439 --> 01:46:05,840
Speaker 3: other places. Tony Katz Tony Katz today a pleasure. I mean,

1658
01:46:06,040 --> 01:46:08,759
Speaker 3: the Dow at one moment was down eight hundred points

1659
01:46:08,760 --> 01:46:11,960
Speaker 3: today because of this. That, And of course they're waiting

1660
01:46:11,960 --> 01:46:15,600
Speaker 3: on a decision from the Fed. And yet somehow, with

1661
01:46:15,720 --> 01:46:19,160
Speaker 3: the possibility of re engagement with Iran, the big story

1662
01:46:19,280 --> 01:46:22,600
Speaker 3: is Anthony Fauci. Well, I shouldn't say somehow it's not

1663
01:46:22,600 --> 01:46:27,519
Speaker 3: surprising Anthony Fauci saying he's not going to testify. He's

1664
01:46:27,560 --> 01:46:31,240
Speaker 3: there in front of this Senate committee. He absolutely refuses

1665
01:46:32,000 --> 01:46:36,240
Speaker 3: to testify, refuses to do it, pleading the fifth every

1666
01:46:36,240 --> 01:46:38,600
Speaker 3: step of the way, and it led to some interesting

1667
01:46:38,680 --> 01:46:41,599
Speaker 3: responses from senators like Bernie Moreno of Ohio.

1668
01:46:42,160 --> 01:46:45,160
Speaker 2: It was about six years ago today that I decided

1669
01:46:45,760 --> 01:46:48,280
Speaker 2: I'm going to give up my businesses, sell them all,

1670
01:46:49,040 --> 01:46:52,360
Speaker 2: run for office, run for the United States Senate. Here

1671
01:46:52,400 --> 01:46:54,800
Speaker 2: I am sitting in front of you, six years later, saying,

1672
01:46:54,800 --> 01:46:56,920
Speaker 2: who the fuck do you think you were for doing that?

1673
01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:03,439
Speaker 2: It is a total disgrace what you did to this country.

1674
01:47:03,800 --> 01:47:06,400
Speaker 2: And if my Democrat colleagues are standing there defending you,

1675
01:47:06,840 --> 01:47:09,960
Speaker 2: I hope the voters the United States of America watched

1676
01:47:09,960 --> 01:47:13,240
Speaker 2: the clips of every one of you doting on a

1677
01:47:13,320 --> 01:47:17,479
