1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,760 Speaker 1: Up next The Truth with Lisa Mouth part of the game. 2 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: So this is actually the fiftie episode of the Truth 3 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: with Lisa Booth. I launched this podcast about a year ago, 4 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: and the reason why I wanted to do it is 5 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:21,319 Speaker 1: I got so frustrated during COVID. I felt like the 6 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: majority of the people on TV and in the media, 7 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: we're pushing fear, They're pushing lockdowns, They're pushing the scariest 8 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: information possible. I mean, we weren't hearing stories about people 9 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: surviving COVID, we weren't hearing stories about what the true 10 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 1: fatality rate was. We're just hearing fear. And so I 11 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 1: wanted to create a space where we can have honest 12 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:46,159 Speaker 1: conversations that maybe you don't get in other places like 13 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: in TV or what you read in the news. And 14 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to provide an opportunity to bring on experts, 15 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: to bring on people who are really interesting, to bring 16 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: on people who have great insight and some of the 17 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: big things that are going on in our country. And 18 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: you know, we live in this era of censorship. I mean, 19 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: you look at what the left is trying to do, 20 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: you look at the media is trying to do, You 21 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: look at what big tech is trying to do. I mean, 22 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: look at how much they try to shut down information 23 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 1: about COVID. There's a time where you couldn't even say 24 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: that COVID likely came from the Wuhan lab. You couldn't 25 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: say that. You would get censored. Big tech would censor you. 26 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: Twitter could kick you off, YouTube could shut down and 27 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: take down your video. The media would call you a 28 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: conspiracy theorist. Even the same thing on vaccines, Look, we've 29 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: got vaccines that were produced in record time. Right, most 30 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: vaccines have five, five to ten years of safety data. 31 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: These have less than a year. But we can't ask 32 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: questions what kind of world is that? How do you 33 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: get to the truth and that sort of environment. And 34 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: it's not just the left, it's what we've got is 35 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: we've got government, We've got the people in charge pushing this. 36 00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: The media comes in and it just pushes that prop aganda, 37 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: pushes that group to think, and then big tech comes 38 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: in and censors anyone that dare raises questions. So I 39 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: think this podcast The Truth with Lisa Booth is so 40 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: important because what we are doing is having those conversations 41 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: they don't want us to have. We're getting to the 42 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: truth in an era where they're trying to change their truth. 43 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: They're trying to rewrite what what words mean. I mean, 44 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: the CDC changed the definition of what it means to 45 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: be vaccinated. How insane is that? You've got the media 46 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: telling us that girls could be boys and boys can 47 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: be girls. We live in a crazy world. So that's 48 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: why I wanted to do this podcast, and we've done 49 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: some incredible things with it. I mean, my god, I've 50 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: been able to interview President Trump twice. President Trump, he 51 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: was my first guest. How cool is that? The legendary 52 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: John Voit, legendary actor who was incredibly nice. I I 53 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: so enjoyed that conversation with him, and he had so 54 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 1: much wisdom and kindness and just such an interesting conversation 55 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: we had with him. I recently interviewed Larry the Cable Guy. 56 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 1: I learned a lot from him, you know, just talking 57 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: about could his persona could Larry the Cable Guy? Could 58 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: that that blue collar stick? Could that work? Now in 59 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: this era of wokeness and progressivism, I've been able to 60 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: interview people like Maximo Averis and talk about communism being 61 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: in America soil, American soil, someone who escaped communism, telling 62 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: us to be careful because communism has infected all of 63 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: our institutions. That was such a powerful conversation I was 64 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: able to have with him. I've interviewed Tucker Carlson, the 65 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: King of Cable Knew, someone who I deeply, deeply respect. 66 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: I think he's the best in the business. He's so smart. 67 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: That was incredible to me to be able to interview 68 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: someone like him. I've been able to interview doctors throughout 69 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: COVID as well, to get you the truth about that 70 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: the things that you can't hear necessarily on TV or 71 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: elsewhere in the media. I talked to Dr Pierre Corey 72 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: about I ever metten. I talked about vaccines, truthful information 73 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: about vaccines with Dr Martin Colder. If he gave us 74 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: a really unbiased, objective viewpoint answered all my questions. I 75 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: think I talked to him for like over an hour, 76 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: and he was kind enough to take the time to 77 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 1: bring us the truth, to bring us the information that 78 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: we needed to hear. I gotta talk to Dr Scott Atlas, 79 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: who fearlessly has taken on people like Dr Fauci, Dr 80 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: Deborah Burks, just really exposing the COVID Task Force for 81 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: for being really worthless and for bringing us to the 82 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: truth about COVID as well the things they didn't they 83 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: didn't tell us how damaging lockdowns truly were to society. 84 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,239 Speaker 1: Also got to talk to j DR J Baticharia about 85 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: Omicron as well.

What really happened on January six 92 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: with Julie Kelly. I mean, this has been so much fun, 93 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: and it's been such an honor to be on this 94 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: journey with you, to learn with you, to talk to 95 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: some of these incredible people who I deeply respect, who 96 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: have great insight, who are so smart, and to learn 97 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: from them.

This is my first podcast, my 123 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: first episode, and I have a very very special guest. 124 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: Do you miss me at a lot of things going on? 125 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: That's right, President Donald J. Trump is joining me, Mr President. So, 126 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: I was thinking today about preparing for this interview, and 127 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: it dawned on me that I am starting with the 128 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: biggest name I could possibly get, So it's pretty much 129 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: downhill from here. Well, I think you're doing so great anyway. 130 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: And when you asked, I want to do it with you, 131 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: I turned down a lot of people, but I want 132 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: to do it with you. I just appreciate everything you've done. 133 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: You're really a professional, great professional, and people have a 134 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: lot of respect for your less So thank you very much. 135 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: It's an honor. You know, I've been thinking about it. 136 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: You know a lot of your supporters right now, you know, 137 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: we feel like no one's fighting for us in Washington, 138 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: d C. You know, we're being maligned by the media. 139 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: I aligned by the left. Big Tech has shut off 140 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: your ability to communicate with your supporters. What's your what's 141 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: your message to them right now? What do you want 142 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: to tell them? Well, it is a very unfair situation. 143 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: They go after us at every level in the city, 144 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: and the states go after us. You know, I wanted 145 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: the federal and you know, all these Muller investigations and 146 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: all of the nonsense that went on. It turned out 147 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: that it was Hillary Clinton. Uh, it turned out with Russia, 148 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: you know, Russia, Russia, Russia and Ukraine, and we the 149 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: impeachment hoax number one and number two. And you know, 150 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: you do all that and then you have the state 151 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: and local stuff they send it into them. It's a disgrace. 152 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, it's a disgrace. It couldn't happen to 153 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: a Democrat. And yet we keep fighting and we were 154 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: I think we're very effective. We had a great election 155 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: and we won and they took it away. They they 156 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 1: it was a rigged election because as you know, we 157 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: won the first one, but we did much better in 158 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: the second one. So people always say, oh, what do 159 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: you mean you did better? I said, we did much 160 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: better almost sevention votes and that's the votes that we 161 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 1: know about. And it was really a terrible thing. I mean, 162 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: it was really an unfair thing to the people that 163 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: support us. So what's happened has been Uh, you know, 164 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: people have seen some silence. But actually, if you take 165 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: a look at what's happened over the last period of time, 166 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 1: we're sending out releases, they're getting picked up much better 167 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: than any tweet. And I'm doing things having to do 168 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: with putting our own platform out there that you'll be 169 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 1: hearing about soon. But even more importantly, any anything you 170 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: can tell me about that, well, I'll be telling you 171 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: pretty soon. But but you know, when I put out 172 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: a statement, it's much more elegant than a tweet, and 173 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: I think it gets picked up better. You're seeing that 174 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: we put out statements from the President, etcetera, etcetera, and 175 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: it's getting picked up by everybody. Everything you say we say. 176 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: So if I endorsed somebody, because we're endorsing some very 177 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,599 Speaker 1: good people, and if I endorsed somebody, it gets tremendous 178 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 1: pick up. I would almost say better than a tweet. 179 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: Now it goes on Twitter, because you know, thousands of 180 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: people pick it up and they put it on Twitter, 181 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 1: and they put it on Facebook, they put it all 182 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: over the place. So we're really having the voices. I think. 183 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: I think it's been very big. I've only started doing 184 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 1: that over the last three or four weeks. But it's 185 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: the voices out there. I think, maybe in a certain way, 186 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: maybe as big as ever. And I've been reading the 187 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: you know, the releases that you've been putting out. But 188 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: you know you've mentioned earlier about sort of the control, 189 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 1: the way that the left goes after conservatives. But it's 190 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: kind of scary right now because they essentially control every 191 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 1: institution in the country. You know, they've got the federal 192 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 1: government right now, they control big Tech, they control the corporations, 193 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 1: they're basically controlling the flow of information to the American people. 194 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: You know, at one point, we had the House, you know, 195 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: we had the Senate, we had you in the White House. 196 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: You know, why didn't we reign in big tech when 197 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: we had that chance. Well, they should have done it 198 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: Section two thirty. They should have done it. They didn't 199 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 1: do it. And now all of a sudden, the Democrats 200 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 1: are being in their protector. You know, they were never 201 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: their protector. They hated big tech. But now they have 202 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: the protector because you know, they figured they're getting the 203 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 1: advantage and big tech. But if you look at what 204 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: happened at the election, Mitch McConnell should have fought you know, 205 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: he did nothing. He should have fought, They would have fought. 206 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: They could never have had That could never have happened 207 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: to a Democrat. At what happened to us with the 208 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 1: presidential election, could never have happened to the Democrats. You 209 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: would have had a revolution if they did. If they did, 210 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: if the if the tables were turned, you would have 211 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: literally had a revolution. And guys like Mitch McConnell, they 212 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: don't fight. And now he's hanging by a thread. He's 213 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 1: hanging by a three at all, not really, I don't 214 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: really want to talk to him. Look, he's hanging by 215 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: a thread right now with respect to the filibuster. And 216 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: if they get the filler, he's hanging on Joe Mansion, 217 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: who always goes with the Democrats. Joe talks, but he 218 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: ends up going with the Democrats. He's hanging by a thread. 219 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: And if they get the filibuster, if they knock it out, 220 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: it will be catastrophic for the Republican Party. Now there 221 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: is one thing that you can do, not show up. 222 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 1: If the Republicans don't show up. In other words, there's 223 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: no vote as I understand it, with fifty fifty, as 224 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: I understand it, the vice presidential vote doesn't count in 225 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: that case, so they can't get that through now. I 226 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,199 Speaker 1: don't even know if the Republican if the Senate knows that. 227 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: If you want to know the truth, but if they 228 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: don't show up, Lisa, I hear that you can't take 229 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: of a it doesn't work. So that's a I mean, 230 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: they may have to do that because they can't allow 231 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: if they knocked out the filibuster, they cannot allow this 232 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: to happen. The things that they're they're going to attack 233 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: the Second Amendment violently, which I've told everybody they're going 234 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: to attack. Yeah, they're going to attack the Supreme Court. 235 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: Wouldn't it be interesting? The Supreme Court has done absolutely 236 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: nothing for us in terms of the election. They haven't 237 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: done what they should have done. Wouldn't it be ironic 238 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: if they stacked the court? It would be rather ironic. Yeah. 239 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: I mean the amount of control they want to have 240 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: over the country is pretty terrify. I mean, you look 241 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: at things like HR one. But also I want to 242 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: talk to you about the border crisis and what's going 243 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: on there. You know, they obviously refuse to call it 244 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: a border crisis, but the US is on pace right 245 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: now to stop more migrants crossing the border, or more 246 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: migrants crossing the border than in the last twenty years. 247 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: You had immigration under control. You had to remain in 248 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: Mexico policy. You're putting up a wall. You were not 249 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 1: doing catch and release, which is something Joe Biden is 250 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: doing now. So you had it handled. Is there any 251 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: advice that you would like to give Joe Biden on 252 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: how he should be handling the immigration crisis right now? Well, 253 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: finish the wall. Don't forget. We would delay two and 254 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: a half years with litigation from the Democrats from Nancy 255 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: Pelosi and Congress, and we won those cases, but we 256 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: wasted two and a half years. Despite that, the wall 257 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: is just about finished, just little sections of the wall. 258 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: Contractors are essentially paid, and they should finish the wall. 259 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: It's a very little it could you could finish it 260 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 1: in a month, and it's impossible that they're not. It's 261 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: just crazy that they're not finished in the wall. So 262 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 1: that's one piece of advice. And then you have to 263 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: go back that week. You have to remain in Mexico. 264 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: You know, Mexico and I had a very good relationship 265 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: at I must say we had a great I have 266 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 1: a lot of respect and like for the President of Mexico. 267 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: They had their soldiers while we were building the wall. 268 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: They had seven thousand soldiers guarding the wall, guarding our border, 269 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: and they did a very good job. I must tell 270 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: you, you you know, they don't have the restrictions that we have. 271 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: They did a very very good job. But we had 272 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 1: it to a level that they say it has never been. 273 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: We haven't. We got rid of all sorts of things, 274 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: including catch and release, all sorts of horrible things that 275 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: were that we had to live with. We got rid, 276 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: and the remain in Mexico. Right now, they're remaining in 277 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: the United States and they're never going to leave. And 278 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: we have no idea who these people are. But I 279 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: can tell you when countries send people up, and they 280 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: do send them up, when they send them up, they're 281 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: not sending up their finest. Okay, they're not sending up 282 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: their finest. Uh. You have some very good people coming up, 283 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: but you have some really bad ones coming to, really 284 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: dangerous criminals coming up, and we're allowing them to come 285 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: right into our country. It's insane and it's nothing compared 286 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: to what it's going to be over the coming months. 287 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: When you see it now. Enjoy it because it's much 288 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: better now when you see it in two or three months, 289 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: because they're just starting to come. They'll be coming up 290 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: by the millions. And we have no idea I mean 291 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: forgetting even about COVID and no testing, no nothing. I mean, 292 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: we're trying to get rid because we came up with 293 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: a vaccine, we're going to be hopefully in good shape 294 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: and then not due to the future. But these people 295 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: they're not being tested nothing. But they were also as 296 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: I said before, you have some very bad embres coming 297 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: up and we're taking him into our country and it's insane. 298 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: They're destroying our country, Lisa, they're destroying our country well, 299 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: and it's happening so fast. And for those at home 300 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: who don't The Remain of Mexico policy was such a 301 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: smart thing because essentially what happened was Central American silent seekers. 302 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: They remained in Mexico instead of coming into the United States. 303 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: Because what was happening, and you know, in Mr President, 304 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: this is why you did this, which was so wise. 305 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: What was happening is these individuals were coming here, passing 306 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: that initial interview and then getting lost in the population 307 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: of legal immigrants living here, So they're using that as 308 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: an opportunity to get in and then disappear. So that 309 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: was so smart that you did, and you threatened with 310 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: terrorist and you've got Mesco Mexico to you know, step 311 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: up to the plate. But there's also this, so you know, 312 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: in January and February, border authorities accountered more than fifteen 313 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: thousand unaccompanied minors. A migrant facility in Donna, Texas was 314 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: at s of its pandemic capacity this month. Are Joe 315 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: Biden's immigration policies inhumane? Well, they are a you mean, 316 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: and what's happened is people that are living in their 317 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: countries and that's where they've been and in many cases 318 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: that's where they ultimately want to go back to, if 319 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: you can believe it. But people living in their countries 320 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: are coming in. And these are not just countries in 321 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: South America, Latin America. These are now countries where you 322 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: look and you look at the Middle East. We have 323 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: Middle East owners coming in. We know nothing about them. 324 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: We have things happening that and we had it in 325 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: such good control two months ago, three months ago, and 326 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: then he made the statement that you want to have 327 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: you want to come in and everybody just started marching 328 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: up and the country has had a lot to do 329 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: with it. So one of the things I did was 330 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: it was impossible to bring them back to Guatemala, Honduras 331 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: and San Salvador, El Salvador, San Salvador, and you couldn't 332 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 1: bring them back. You couldn't get it back no matter what. 333 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: And what happened is I said, look how much money 334 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: we paid those countries, five hundred million dollars a year. 335 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: I stopped payment, and all of a sudden they took 336 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: them back. In other words, we capture Ms thirteen. And 337 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: if you take a look at El Salvador as an example, 338 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: or or any of them, and other countries too, they 339 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't take them back. So I stopped payment. As soon 340 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: as I stopped payment, they gladly took him back. Nobody's 341 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 1: ever done that before. Nobody ever talks about it, because 342 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: you know, how simple is it, but nobody's ever done it. 343 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: So I stopped paying the five hundred million a year 344 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: to the three countries, the triangle as we call them. 345 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: I stopped paying it. Once I stopped paying it, they 346 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: said we'll take them back. They would literally round them 347 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: up for me. They would round them up bring them 348 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: to Honduras, bring them to bring them to Guatemala, and 349 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 1: they would say, turn around, we're not taking them back. 350 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: Now they take them back, but now they're not going 351 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: to again. So he's paying and we don't get anything 352 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: for We give them a lot of money and we 353 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: get nothing but disrespect. And we had it down to 354 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 1: an absolute science. It was. It was a beautiful thing 355 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: to see and frankly, what's happened. And even Mexico, I said, look, 356 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 1: if we don't if we don't make a deal, and 357 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: if you don't help us out, we're gonna have to 358 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: put tariffs on all of the products that you sell 359 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: to the United States because they have a big surplus 360 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: with the United States. So we're gonna have to put 361 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: a terraphone. As soon as I said that they were great, 362 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: and they were great. We had a great relationship with 363 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 1: Mexico and the other countries because they didn't want to 364 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: have either tariffs imposed or they wanted to get some 365 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: of the money. And and you know, and I also 366 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: gave them back us but we gave them we stopped 367 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: payment on all of that money that was pouring in, 368 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden they took the MS thirteen 369 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: people back, and they took the people that we wanted 370 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,360 Speaker 1: out of our country back. So people don't talk about that. 371 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: They never talked about that, But that's what happened, and 372 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: we never had it so good. And you know when 373 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 1: they when they released them in our country, they go 374 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 1: into our country, they never we never find them again. 375 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: They never come back. Okay, when they never come back, 376 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: a very tiny percentage comes back. They say we're gonna 377 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 1: release you in the country and you'll come back in 378 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: two years for a legal case. That's the end of them. 379 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,719 Speaker 1: Very few people show up. It's it's ridiculous. So we 380 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 1: had a thing where we keep them in Mexico. We 381 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 1: got upheld in the courts meeting positively, so all of 382 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 1: these people were staying in Mexico. What that did is 383 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: it forced Mexico not to let them in on their 384 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: northern border, so they wouldn't let them in. So we're 385 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 1: sort of working for everybody. And then these people came 386 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 1: alone and they just ended everything. And now they to 387 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: be flowing in by the millions, already started very substantially. 388 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: Nobody's ever seen it as bad as it is now. 389 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: It's really good compared to what it will be in 390 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: a few months. We certainly don't see this same pressure 391 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,719 Speaker 1: from the media, the same sort of lies that they 392 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 1: were telling about your immigration policies being applied to you know, 393 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: the Biden administration here. But no, I wanted to ask 394 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,679 Speaker 1: you you've mentioned COVID early or so, you know. We 395 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: it's been over years since the fifteen days to slow 396 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 1: the spread, and Dr Fauci has drawn the ire of 397 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: a lot of conservatives like me, uh and also Senator Rampaul. 398 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: We've seen a lot of his exchanges in the Senate 399 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 1: with Dr Fauci. You know, he's flip flopped on masks. 400 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 1: He was wrong about the travel bands. He basically told 401 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 1: us at the beginning to not worry about COVID. Do 402 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: you regret ever elevating him? Well, I didn't really elevate him. 403 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 1: He's been there for forty years, he's been there forever, 404 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,959 Speaker 1: and I thought rather than firing him, you know, I 405 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: listened to him, but I didn't do what he said 406 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: because frankly, his record is not a good record. I 407 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: like him personally. It's actually a nice guy, is a 408 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: great promoter. He's really a promoter more than anything else. 409 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: And Uh, I think he's you know, I always say 410 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: he's a better pitcher of a baseball than he is 411 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: at what he does, because he was wrong so much. 412 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: If I would have listened to him. First of all, 413 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: he said no masks, and very importantly, he didn't want 414 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: to have China stopped from coming in. If we would 415 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 1: have done that, we would have had hundreds of thousands 416 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: of more deaths in our country. And if you look 417 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: at what we've done, you know, we don't get fair publicity. 418 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 1: But what we've done, we've supplied. You know, the cupboage 419 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: were bare. We had nothing from the previous administration, and 420 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 1: we got all of the gowns and all of the 421 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: masks and all of the uh, if you take a 422 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 1: look at the machinery, the equipment that you need, it's massive. 423 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: We took care of everything, and we really did a 424 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 1: great job. But we stopped so many But the big 425 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: thing that I did is the vaccine. Because the vaccine, 426 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of people expected we're gonna lose 427 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,959 Speaker 1: two point two million people, and it's going to be 428 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: a number six stantially lower than that. But the big 429 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,959 Speaker 1: thing that I did for the world, not only is 430 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 1: I went to the f D a I said, fellas 431 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: it's over, this is going to go fast. It would 432 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: have taken five years for another president, a guy like 433 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: Biden would have taken five year, taken five years for 434 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: the vaccine to be approved, and it would have never 435 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 1: been approved. I think they would have had it. It 436 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: would have you know, goes from five to twelve years. 437 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: I got it done in nine months, and they did 438 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: not like me. I will tell you that they did 439 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: not like me. In statutorily, they had to do things 440 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: a certain way. They were I ended all I said, 441 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: we need have Actually we got it done in nine months. 442 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: I mean they disliked me so much that it was 443 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: approved like two days after the election because they could. 444 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: And by the way, the only one that dislikes me 445 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,119 Speaker 1: more of the drug companies, because what I did with 446 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 1: favorite nations and everything else. If Biden keeps my policies, 447 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: drug prices will come way down to the lowest in 448 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: the world, will be tied because the favorite nations. That 449 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: means we will match the lowest price in the world, 450 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: which is much lower for the exact same drug with 451 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: the exact same pill. So the drug companies that took 452 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: millions of dollars of advertisements against us, against me, and 453 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: you know, but I had to do what was right. 454 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: Nobody else would have done. Favorite nations against the drug companies. 455 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: So if they leave that in place, and I did 456 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: other things like transparency and other things, but you know, 457 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: the people, I think I know the people love it. 458 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: The problem is they won't see it for a little while. 459 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: If they allowed my policies to stay, we'll have tied 460 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: for the lowest drug prices anywhere in the world. It'll 461 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 1: be great. But Faucci has been so wrong, so as Burkes. 462 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: They've been so wrong. And if I would have listened 463 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: to them and then they went to the other extreme, 464 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: like the entire country should lock up, I didn't go 465 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 1: for that, and you know, it just wasn't for me. 466 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: I didn't go for that. And if you look, you 467 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: know I allowed governors like Rhonda Santis, who has done 468 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: a great job, and in texas As they've done a 469 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: really good job, and uh in South Dakota. But many 470 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: many place is I allowed them to keep open if 471 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 1: they want, if they want to know, the ones that 472 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: shut down are the ones that are doing the worst. 473 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: You look at New York, you look at California, the 474 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: ones that shut down are the ones that the states 475 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: that have done the worst. It's sort of amazing, to 476 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: be honest, if you look at it, but they've done 477 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: really terribly. They've ruined their economies, they've ruined their states, 478 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 1: and then numbers aren't better. In fact, the numbers are 479 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: worse than the ones that have been much more open. 480 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: All right, Mr President, I know you've got I don't 481 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: want to take up much more of your time. I 482 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: know you've got a busy day, but it is such 483 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: an honor to talk to you.

We're going 497 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: to take a quick commercial break and then back with 498 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: my interview with Tucker Carlson on the other side. This 499 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: is episode eighteen with my colleague and I think the 500 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: smartest person on television, the great Tucker Carlson. You're probably 501 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: subject to the most criticism in the country in terms 502 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: of as being a journalist. Why do you think that is? Oh, 503 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, you know, because I'm in the way. 504 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: I guess I don't have perspective on it. I mean, 505 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: I'm I'm very against the Internet. You know. I try 506 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 1: not to spend any time on the Internet if I 507 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 1: can help it. I think it's disgusting, you know, you know, 508 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm really thrilled that, you know, we can 509 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: get up to the moment weather updates, but like, overall, 510 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: the internet has been like the worst thing that ever 511 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: happened to the world. And clearly and um so I'm 512 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: just not on it that much. I never go go myself, 513 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: I would never do that. And and more broadly, I'm 514 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: I'm not interested like truly and I'm not just saying this, 515 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: I mean it, Ask anyone who lives around me. I'm 516 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 1: not interested in in the opinions of people I don't respect. 517 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 1: I'm deeply interested in the people I love and care 518 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: about and their opinions. If my wife looks at me 519 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: cross side it, you know, it brings me to my knees. 520 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I really care what the people I love 521 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 1: to think very much, and I will immediately change my 522 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: behavior if they tell me too. But like somebody at 523 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: the Daily Beast, I don't, you know, why would I 524 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 1: care what they think? I really don't. I mean, and 525 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: I mean that, oh, you're a Nazi, you're a what 526 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: you know, you quoted Martin Luther King, So you're a 527 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: white supremacist. Okay, you know it's this is so dumb, 528 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 1: like why do I care? So it doesn't have any 529 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: effect on me at all, like literally none, and so 530 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: it's like to me, it's like it's not even happening. 531 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say what I think is true. If I 532 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 1: say something that's cruel or unfair, you know that people 533 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: I respect will tell me immediately and I I'll apologize 534 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 1: and stop doing it. But like the criticism of people 535 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 1: who you know, work for Jeff Bezos and want to 536 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 1: defend the existing order like I don't give a ship 537 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 1: at all, and I really don't either. You know, we've 538 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: seen probably one of the biggest transfers of wealth over 539 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: the past year, and you know, the shuttering of small 540 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 1: businesses which are more decentralized in the centralized power with 541 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: large corporations, as well as obviously the government growing larger. 542 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: H in addition to that, you know, where where does 543 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: that head? And what does that mean for a country, 544 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: you know, both economically and just as a nation at large. 545 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 1: But what about racism? What about racism? What about transgender rights? 546 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: I mean, all of the debates that are sort of 547 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: forced on us from above, racism, oh shut up, transgender right, 548 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's like nine people. All of them 549 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: are recover for the real debates, which are mostly about economics, 550 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: not not exclusively, but the big ones are about like 551 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: the role of the central bank. And in a normal country, 552 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: that's what you would be debating because that that really 553 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: does matter. But we're not having that debate at all. 554 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 1: And yeah, you're seeing a complete transformation of the U. 555 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: S economy complete two. And this has been a middle 556 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: class country literally middle class country. The majority of people 557 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: fall into the you know, as determined by the Labor Department. 558 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: But in the income range that we call middle class, 559 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: the majority were middle class. Two fifteen, the middle class 560 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: becomes a minority in the country becomes and this has 561 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: accelerated this trend way more lopsided. Small number of people 562 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: control a larger percentage of the assets, and that makes 563 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 1: the country really unstable, not just this country, in any country. 564 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: That's how Venezuela went from this kind of nice place 565 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: I went there as a kid to you know, this hellhole. 566 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: They're eating zoo animals and you know, Maduro's in charge, 567 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: Like because that concentration of wealth in a democracy provokes 568 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: a response, and it provokes radical populism and they break everything. 569 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: So like, that's a really bad trend. It's one of 570 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: the worst possible trends. But we don't even discuss it. 571 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: And why don't we discuss it because the people who 572 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: control the conversation, you know, who control the tech companies 573 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: and the and the TV networks, I don't want to 574 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: have that conversation because they're on the winning end of it. 575 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: So Trump said something he once Trump stunt super reflective 576 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: as you know. But he did say something I never forgot, 577 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: which is, you know, the one thing that people don't 578 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: like the system, our system doesn't like in this country's 579 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 1: economic populist. And they really don't. You know that We've 580 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: never had since Teddy Roosevelt. We have not had a 581 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: president including Trump by the way, um, who is an 582 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: economic populist. But most people kind of like the basic 583 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: ideas of economic populism. So what does that tell you 584 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: if for a hundred years people don't get the one 585 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: thing they want, maybe the system isn't very responsive to 586 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: the public. Maybe it's not really a democracy, you know 587 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: what I mean? No, I mean it makes sense. And 588 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: you know, of course, everything ultimately is about, you know, control, 589 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:19,479 Speaker 1: and that's why obviously they want larger corporations and government 590 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 1: control and socialism and things of that nature, because it 591 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: empowers the people in charge for real. Last question of this, 592 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: this is something that you encourage people that you know, 593 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: get married, have kids. Why Why is having a strong 594 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: family unit almost counterculture? Now? Well, because it runs contrary 595 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: to corporate interests. I mean, feminism is just like a 596 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: pure corporate propaganda, you know, telling And I have three daughters, 597 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: so I think about this a lot, but like telling 598 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: girls that somehow more virtuous and fulfilling and meaningful to 599 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: work for some soulless corporation in the HR department of marketing, marketing, 600 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: whatever the funk that is marketing, uh, than it is 601 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 1: to raise your own children. Like who thought of that first? 602 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: Personal It's like so ridiculous. Anyway, this is this is 603 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: the Ryl Sandberg wrote a whole book on this. She 604 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: and a lot of people like her have been making 605 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: this case for fifty years that you're just you're gonna 606 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: be a lot happier if you work for some big 607 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: company than if you have a personal life. And it's 608 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: such a lie that they can only maintain it with 609 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 1: like maximum hysteria. You know, men are terrible. You don't 610 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: want a man, right, okay? And you know having a 611 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 1: man and having a family, having little kids you have 612 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: to deal with makes you a less reliable employee. So 613 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: of course they're going to say that the amazing thing 614 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: is we believe that this is a liberation movement. You're 615 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: so liberated you get to, you know, commute to midtown 616 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: sitting r meetings. That's not like that's liberation. So the 617 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: truth is like you know, getting married, having someone who 618 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: you love and loves you back, and who is loyal 619 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: to you and you're loyal to you know, like the 620 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: happiest thing in life having children? Are you kidding? It's 621 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: the most meaningful thing you can do. It's not the easiest, 622 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: it's not always the most fun, but it's it's certainly 623 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: the most rewarding. It's the thing that you know, it's 624 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: all that matters really in my opinion, And so like 625 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 1: people are like, oh, well, you know it matters. What 626 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: really matters is I don't know, going to sat Barts 627 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 1: or having more sex partners really do They don't really 628 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: think that makes you happy. Now, It's like absurd, It's 629 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: totally absurd, you know. I tell her, I think back 630 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: before I became afraid to the time at work, I 631 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: m PBS or just you know, in the past thirty years, 632 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: as in television, where I've worked for twenty six years, 633 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: I would always tell the women on it because it's 634 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: like heavily women, because they're amazing producers and they're like 635 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: incredibly hard working, like in a way just candidly that 636 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: a lot of men aren't. You know, people like to 637 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: hire women. That's true because they're like awesome them, you know, 638 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: can you do this? Absolutely? And they do it. It's 639 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: crazy and so but the problem is that companies take 640 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: advantage of women, and women don't kind of complain about 641 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 1: it because they're so dutiful. These are generalizations, but they're 642 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: generally true. And so I would always take the women 643 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: on our staff aside and be like, you know, you're 644 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: so awesome and you're great, but like, you know, don't 645 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: forget that this is just a TV show and in 646 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 1: the end, you know, you want to live out your 647 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 1: life with like someone who really loves you, and like 648 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: if you want children, you should have them, and don't 649 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: let your loyalty to this job, you know, convince you 650 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,479 Speaker 1: to miss your own life, like take time for your 651 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 1: personal life. I would always say that. Now I'm like 652 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 1: afraid so I get fired for saying that again. I 653 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 1: don't know what would happen. I don't say that anymore, 654 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: but I always did because I meant it, And I 655 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: wish a woman would say that to America. You know, 656 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: it's a lie working for City Bank or you do 657 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: you think City Bank cares about you know, you know, 658 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: who cares about you? Like your husband would care about 659 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: your kids, would care of you, your dogs care about you. 660 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: City Bank does not care of about you. So Fox 661 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: City Bank, that's how I feel about it. Yeah, I 662 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: mean I do. I totally agree with you. And this 663 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: is something I've been grappling with over the past year 664 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: of you know, I've put so much emphasis on work 665 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: before and you know, wanting to look towards having a 666 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 1: family and find the right person and get married and 667 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 1: do that whole thing, because it's almost as if society 668 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 1: we've redirected people away from things that actually have meaning 669 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: in life and purpose in life, like religion, like families, 670 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: and directed it towards things that are completely empty and 671 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: unfulfilling and bring unhappiness and sadness. It's twisted. Yeah, but 672 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 1: you get to go to Burning Man for a week, 673 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,759 Speaker 1: so it's all worth it, you know, And you know, 674 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: you get your little nappod in the Google break room 675 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 1: and like, you know, you get free score bars, so 676 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 1: you're you're you're good, You're very psyched, and you can 677 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: order in lunch and the company will pay for it. 678 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 1: Like if those are your rewards or you make three 679 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 1: hundred thousand a year, Wow, that'll make you happier three 680 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 1: million or thirty million a year. I mean, it's it's 681 00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 1: all such a lie. And and I mean I can 682 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: say because I'm one of the few people I know 683 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 1: who's like, you know, I ran out of money at 684 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: one point how to sell my house with fork and 685 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: then I made a lot of money, and so I've 686 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 1: been kind of both ends. And I can tell you know, 687 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: debt is bad, being poor is hard. Not having enough 688 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 1: money is hard. But making more than you need does 689 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: not make you happy. It just doesn't. That's a lie. 690 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 1: And I mean, I think we all sort of know that, 691 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: but let me just say it again. That's a lie. 692 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 1: What makes you happy are your relationships or your commitments 693 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,919 Speaker 1: to other people, not your random relationships, like your deep relationships, 694 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: the one that's that you sacrifice for the ones you're 695 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,879 Speaker 1: connected to for life. The person will be buried next 696 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,919 Speaker 1: to what that matters, and nobody says it. I don't 697 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,919 Speaker 1: understand why, but you know, as noted, I just don't care. 698 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 1: So I'm going to because why wouldn't I know? I 699 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: think it's important, which is why you know, I wanted 700 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:51,919 Speaker 1: to bring it up, because you know, I do think 701 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 1: we're turning young people towards things that are completely meaningless 702 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 1: and empty, and social media, of course draws people inside 703 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,240 Speaker 1: and away from those interpersonal relationships, which is the basis 704 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,879 Speaker 1: and foundation of happiness in society. Anything else you want 705 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 1: to leave my listeners with before we go, well, just one, 706 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: it's just on this topic. I can't control myself. I 707 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,359 Speaker 1: just had this conversation with my wife yesterday, so it's 708 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 1: just like the top of mind, but we're talking about, 709 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,439 Speaker 1: you know, happiness and unhappiness or whatever. And I thought, 710 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 1: and I thought this before, but it really struck me. Ester. 711 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: It's like, I don't think I've ever been unhappy in 712 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: my life except because of self pity. I honestly don't 713 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 1: think I have. I mean, I haven't had a ton 714 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 1: of you know, bad things happen to me. I've had 715 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: a really happen nice life, easy life, really. But the 716 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: times where I've been unhappy, it's been one because I 717 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: felt sorry for myself. One d you know, poor me, 718 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And I thought, well, what 719 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: is the root of self pity? And of course it's narcissism, 720 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,240 Speaker 1: you know, It's it's thinking about it's obsessing over yourself, 721 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: and that that really is the root of unhappiness, and 722 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: so anything that pulls you deeper in to yourself. And 723 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:04,240 Speaker 1: by the way, I would say self knowledge is really important, 724 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 1: and that's a different category. Understanding who you are and 725 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 1: what you want, what you're good at, Like those are 726 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:13,400 Speaker 1: key qualities. Absolutely, it's key skills that you need to master. 727 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 1: But self obsession is a different thing. Narcissism is a 728 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: different thing. And you know, get out of yourself. I mean, 729 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: just do whatever you can to get out of yourself. 730 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 1: Not even for moral reasons, so I think those apply, 731 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: but for practical reasons. You'll be happier the less you 732 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 1: think about yourself, Like stop googling yourself, stop taking your 733 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: fucking self piece, like get off your phone, talk to 734 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 1: other people, worry about them. You'll be way happier if 735 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 1: you do that. And this is like so obvious. I'm 736 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,720 Speaker 1: embarrassed to say it, but it just struck me yesterday, 737 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 1: like just in me. You know, when I think about myself, 738 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,879 Speaker 1: I become unhappy. It's true, I think, and I think 739 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: it's true for everybody. Well, I actually had accidentally left 740 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 1: my phone at home when I went away for a 741 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: weekend in the Keys, and it was like one of 742 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 1: the best weekends I've had because I was completely connected 743 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 1: it I'm saying, but it was really it was sad. 744 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 1: It made me really sad about what dominance or phones 745 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: have on our lives. I was so happy, I was 746 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 1: so in the moment, just truly enjoying things in a 747 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 1: way that you don't when you're checking work emails or 748 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 1: on this or that, and it. I mean, it's almost like, 749 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 1: I think we'd all be a lot happier without you know, 750 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,840 Speaker 1: these cell phones, without social media, all these things that 751 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: take us away from the real moments in life and 752 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 1: you know, those relationships and the things that really matter 753 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 1: and happiness. Yeah, I'm not going to recommend Ted Kaczynski's 754 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 1: second book, the one who Wrote from Prison, because that 755 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: would be too radical for your listeners. But but let 756 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 1: me just but I just want to get it out 757 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 1: there for those who are interested, you know, maybe check 758 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: it out. But um, I would say, yeah, technology, we 759 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 1: have not we have not grappled with the effects of it. 760 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: I mean, we had the we had the industrial Revolution, 761 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 1: and it caused you know, political revolutions, it caused Marxism, 762 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 1: you know, around the world, and now we've had this 763 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,439 Speaker 1: digital revolution. We're pretending that like, oh, everything is kind 764 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 1: of the same. No, no, no, no, no, there are 765 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: consequences of this are um are are yet to be visible, 766 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: but they're going to be really, they're gonna be profound. 767 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 1: I would say, obviously, did to make another obvious point, 768 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: which is my specialty? No, that's how your specialty. Uh, Tucker. 769 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 1: I really appreciate you making the time for my podcast. 770 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: It means a lot, and it was thank you for 771 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: having I'm the biggest Tucker Carlson fan. I hope you 772 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: guys are too quick. Commercial break, and then back with 773 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 1: my interview with Maximolaveris on the other side. I love 774 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: this episode. It was episode seven with Maximo Alveries. He 775 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 1: fled communist Cuba to come to America and he warns 776 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: us about how communism has infiltrated all of our institutions. Listen. So, 777 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 1: when I was thinking about all these concerns that honestly 778 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,799 Speaker 1: come to mind to me every single day, I'm constantly 779 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 1: worried about the direction or country is heading, constantly feeling 780 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 1: like communism is at our doorstep right here in America. 781 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: So in thinking about all this and thinking about who 782 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: to have on the show, was a guest. Maximo Avaris 783 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,919 Speaker 1: came to mind. You all at home might remember him 784 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 1: from the Republican National Convention, and he gave an incredibly 785 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 1: emotional speech talking about his journey, talking about escaping, fleeing 786 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: communist Cuba and coming to America at age thirteen. He 787 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: has had a tremendously successful career in the oil industry. 788 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: He is the founder and heads Sunshine Gasoline. So he 789 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 1: is the epitome of the American dream. And if there 790 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: is anyone who knows how quickly a country can lose 791 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:36,799 Speaker 1: its freedom, it's Maximo. So that's what we're gonna talk 792 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: to him about today. Maximo, thanks so much for coming 793 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: on the Truth with Lisa Booth.

And we're also neighbors. 795 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 1: So I just I actually just like left New York 796 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: City to to move to Florida for the primary reason 797 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:55,359 Speaker 1: of wanting to come to a free state. Welcome, thank you, 798 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 1: thank you. Sorry, I'm in Miami. I love it. Uh 799 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 1: So Maximo at the RNC convention, and you know, you 800 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,399 Speaker 1: talked about your story. You fled Cuba at the age 801 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 1: of as part of Operation Pedro Pan. What do you 802 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: remember about Cuba, Well, I remember what's revidly about Cuba, 803 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: and a lot of the things that you know amazes me. 804 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 1: People did not know that Cuba in the fifties was 805 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:28,320 Speaker 1: pretty much another state of our great United States of America. Uh. 806 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:33,560 Speaker 1: We're an independent country, of course, but we enjoyed the 807 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:38,280 Speaker 1: same standard of living. Our currency was at the same 808 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 1: value of the American dollar. It's a matter of fact, 809 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 1: the Cuban peso circulated as much as the dollar. We 810 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:51,320 Speaker 1: had all of the benefits that you have in the 811 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:56,320 Speaker 1: United States. Just to give you an idea, when General 812 00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 1: Motors would put out the cars to the mark let's say, 813 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 1: let's say in October September, a month before they were 814 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,720 Speaker 1: already sent to Cuba, where a lot of American people 815 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 1: will go to Cuba by an automobile right around, send 816 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,400 Speaker 1: it in the ferry and not pay the taxes. So 817 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 1: you could buy a Chevrolet or the Forward or any 818 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: vehicles just about for the less that you could buy 819 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,360 Speaker 1: in the United States. Because you said the taxes. Cuba 820 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: was what it is at the time in the fifties, 821 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:41,840 Speaker 1: similar to what it is Las Vegas today. People tourism, flourish, 822 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 1: people went there to have a good time. As a 823 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 1: matter of fact, you could just you know, fly to 824 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 1: Cuba in less than an hour goal and stay the 825 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 1: weekend in hotels just as luxurious as the ones in 826 00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,319 Speaker 1: Miami and the ones in New York. So that's the 827 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: cube that I remember. I also remember our education, which 828 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 1: he was really impacted. And this is the biggest impact 829 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: that we had when we lost our country. I remember 830 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: how my mom, when I didn't behave, used to threaten 831 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 1: me that if I didn't behave the next day, I 832 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:35,320 Speaker 1: would not be allowed to go to school. That was instant, 833 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 1: because oh my lord, I couldn't miss school. As a 834 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,320 Speaker 1: matter of fact, I don't remember what ever missing school 835 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 1: one day. I remember going to school when I had 836 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 1: a fever and we had a stomach ache. I wouldn't 837 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: tell my mom because I was afraid I was going 838 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:55,280 Speaker 1: to be left at home. And that is the things 839 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:58,359 Speaker 1: that we remember that all of a sudden, from one 840 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: day to the next, everything changed. My school was confiscated, 841 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: all the private property was taken away. People were getting 842 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 1: killed against a wall. They were running trials in mass 843 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:20,840 Speaker 1: trials because they didn't have enough time in the day 844 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 1: to execute people. So you go to trial at nine 845 00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:26,000 Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning, you get convicted at ten at 846 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 1: eleven o'clock against the wall, no appeals, nothing. Our system 847 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 1: was pretty much the same as the one we have 848 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: here in the United States, and all of a sudden 849 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 1: that change. I remember crying and being upset because as 850 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 1: Castle takes over, my friends were marching in the streets. 851 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: Did you and our revolutionary kids a moment that wouldn't 852 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 1: let me do that? And I remember, as I want 853 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 1: to be with my friends, these are my neighbors. This 854 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,440 Speaker 1: is the same kids to go to my school. Thank god, 855 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:12,959 Speaker 1: Mom and Dad knew because they understood communism because many 856 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:17,720 Speaker 1: years before they migrated to Cue are running away from Spain. 857 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 1: So I have that in my blood because not only 858 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 1: I learned from Mom and dad, which when you're young, 859 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:31,880 Speaker 1: you don't seem to pay much attention to that, but 860 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,720 Speaker 1: then it happened to me. Also it happened to them, 861 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: and it happened to everybody who has ever come to 862 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 1: this country looking for one thing, which is called freedom. 863 00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:49,319 Speaker 1: And you know why I'm so sad today because I 864 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:52,960 Speaker 1: saw this coming. I not only said it in that 865 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:55,800 Speaker 1: speech at the convention. What I've been saying this before. 866 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 1: I started saying that when all of a sudden we 867 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,840 Speaker 1: had a low passing us in our country, that you 868 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 1: couldn't say the prayer in school, that's the beginning. That's 869 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 1: how they do. I saw it when when you will 870 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 1: be offended because you were called a name. I saw 871 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 1: it when when you have to be politically correct. I 872 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:31,240 Speaker 1: saw these things coming and every time there's a shooting, 873 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:35,879 Speaker 1: how they want to take your guns away. I saw 874 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 1: it when when even the Catholic people say nothing against abortion. 875 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 1: But this is something that really hurts because very few people, 876 00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 1: I for one, who had never imagined that this country 877 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:06,439 Speaker 1: would be vulnerable to communism. But long the whole, if 878 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:10,800 Speaker 1: you go back in history and you hear the speech 879 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 1: that Nikita Krushchev said, I think it was nineteen at 880 00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 1: the United Nations. By the way, Nikita Kruschev, for those 881 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:20,840 Speaker 1: of you who may not know, it's the equivalent of 882 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: putting today in Russia. And he had visited the Fidel 883 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 1: Castro in Cuba, and then he went and gave a 884 00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:31,560 Speaker 1: speech at the United Nations. And in that speech he says, 885 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 1: one day the United States of America will be communists 886 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,320 Speaker 1: and we will not even have a war. We will 887 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:48,320 Speaker 1: infiltrate their education, will infiltrate your society, will infiltrate the youth. 888 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 1: And I want to play this clip for the audience 889 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: from your RNC convention, and then um, I want to 890 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 1: ask you a question after it. Let's play this. I 891 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:02,360 Speaker 1: have seen people like this big for I've seen movements 892 00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:07,680 Speaker 1: like this before. I've seen ideas like this before, and 893 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 1: I am here to tell you we cannot let them 894 00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:15,760 Speaker 1: take over our country. I heard the promises of Fidel Castro, 895 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 1: and I can never forget all those who grew up 896 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:26,520 Speaker 1: around me, who looked like me, who suffered and starved 897 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:32,840 Speaker 1: and died because they believe those empty promises. They swallowed 898 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 1: the communist poison pill. Sir, as we're listening to earlier, 899 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: you're talking about communism coming to hear on the American soil. 900 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,280 Speaker 1: As we just heard your RNC convention, you had talked 901 00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:47,960 Speaker 1: about how people in Cuba had swallowed the communist poison pill. 902 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 1: Have Americans swallowed the communist poison pill? Not only they 903 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 1: have swallowed, they digesting it. Listen to the media. They're 904 00:48:56,760 --> 00:49:00,720 Speaker 1: no longer objective. You can tell how much they hate 905 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:05,839 Speaker 1: this country. Look at our our academia. Our kids are 906 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:11,280 Speaker 1: not being did in doctrinated. They are thought that America 907 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 1: is a bad country. There were a bunch of racists, 908 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:16,800 Speaker 1: that we're bad people and we'll have to pay back. 909 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:22,919 Speaker 1: If this country was racist, I wouldn't be here. If 910 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:26,760 Speaker 1: this country was a racist country, most of us willn't 911 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,560 Speaker 1: be here because even some people in your family came 912 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:34,600 Speaker 1: from another country. This country was made of immigrants. That 913 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:38,799 Speaker 1: we have racist people in this country, of course we do. 914 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,400 Speaker 1: Do we have bad people, yes we do. Do we 915 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 1: have bad teachers, yes we do. Do we have bad 916 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 1: police people, yes we do. But con'mpling the country for 917 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 1: that because we have a justice system that will penalize 918 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:54,360 Speaker 1: you and punish you if you are a bad person, 919 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 1: if you are a racist, But don't don't make our 920 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 1: would then believe that we have to pay back because 921 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 1: America is a bad country. And this is what it's 922 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 1: so sad. Whenever we make a donation, most people who 923 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:17,720 Speaker 1: make donations try to find out where is that money going, 924 00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:22,719 Speaker 1: Who are you helping? What is the American Cancer Society, 925 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,279 Speaker 1: or whether it's your church, or whether it's a politician. 926 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:29,880 Speaker 1: You have much money they're sending into black lives matter, 927 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:33,840 Speaker 1: and people don't want to understand that these three ladies 928 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 1: to control this company are bragging about Marcist learninism, their communists. 929 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 1: They tell you that, and nobody understands what that means. 930 00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 1: And then you have people who are supposed to be 931 00:50:54,280 --> 00:51:00,320 Speaker 1: role models to our kids who tell you, I'm afraid 932 00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 1: when I left the house in the morning because I 933 00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:07,399 Speaker 1: happened to be black. Really, are you afraid that you're 934 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 1: making three million dollars in this racist country for shooting 935 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 1: the basketball? Isn't that sad? And then when you have 936 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 1: a black person to tell you, ay this in this 937 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 1: our problem is ours. What is the thirteen year old 938 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:26,279 Speaker 1: kid doing out in the streets at two o'clock in 939 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 1: the morning with a gun? Was mom and dad. The 940 00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:32,880 Speaker 1: police officer didn't go there to kill that kid. The 941 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:35,759 Speaker 1: police officer went there because somebody called made a call 942 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 1: in distress, somebody who's being robbed or hurt, and the 943 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 1: police officer went there. It just happens there was a 944 00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:49,400 Speaker 1: bad police officer made a mistake. Okay, that's fine, but 945 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,600 Speaker 1: that kid is not a hero. That whole lump is 946 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:56,080 Speaker 1: not a hero. How can you, hi, dare you? How 947 00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 1: can you give somebody's family million dollars before the trial. 948 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 1: I think from the pressment of the country trying to 949 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: influence a trial, the congress woman influence and trial. Just 950 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:13,720 Speaker 1: think about dot That is all communism, quick commercial break 951 00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 1: back on the other side, So I loved being able 952 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 1: to interview Dr Scott Atlas. He really uncovered how much 953 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: government failed us throughout COVID. He put Dr Burke's Dr 954 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:33,520 Speaker 1: Faucci on blast, really exposing their weaknesses and how moronic 955 00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:36,959 Speaker 1: they are to be perfectly honest, and also got into 956 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,799 Speaker 1: all the failures with things like lockdowns when the data 957 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 1: showed otherwise. I hope you liked this one too with 958 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:46,120 Speaker 1: Dr Scott Atlas. This was episode thirty nine. You talk 959 00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:49,000 Speaker 1: about how the human cost of lockdowns was never discussed 960 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: by the task task Force and ignored by Dr five 961 00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:55,200 Speaker 1: and Dr Burkes. Why was that ignored? I mean you 962 00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: would think that their job would be to take the 963 00:52:57,520 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 1: totality of the situation into a out. That's right. I 964 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,640 Speaker 1: mean there was a gross what I call a gross 965 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 1: failure of morality in the public health leadership when you're 966 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 1: leading public health interventions. What they did was they considered 967 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 1: one and only one illness. Stopping COVID nineteen cases at 968 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,640 Speaker 1: all costs. To me, that's just a gross failure. That's 969 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 1: not what appropriate public health policy is. Public health policy 970 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 1: must take into account the totality of impact of health 971 00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 1: from the policy itself. You can stop all cases of 972 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:39,919 Speaker 1: COVID if you killed everybody for instance. Okay, of course 973 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,800 Speaker 1: this is ludicrous. I'm just pointing out something sort of 974 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 1: to the absurd extreme. The point of a public health 975 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 1: policy is to take an account also what you're doing 976 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 1: to people. And we see from the data that they 977 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:56,919 Speaker 1: You know, there's a study from UH in June, from 978 00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:00,680 Speaker 1: Rand Institute and USC that shows that the the lockdowns 979 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 1: didn't just fail. The lockdowns increased the dusk. The earlier 980 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:08,160 Speaker 1: the lockdowns were put on, the more deaths occurred. When bess, 981 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 1: we're falling and lockdowns were implemented, that's increased. And this 982 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:15,080 Speaker 1: is analysis of forty three countries and in all of 983 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 1: the states in the United States. I think it's a 984 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 1: highly important paper to read from June, and so yes, 985 00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 1: it was a gross failure. In fact, this is why 986 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:29,600 Speaker 1: you can't We had the wrong people advising UH policy. 987 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:33,319 Speaker 1: Don't forget Dr Burke's was the task Force coordinator, so 988 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 1: that means she was the official voice and head of 989 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:40,720 Speaker 1: the medical policy. She wrote all of the policy advice 990 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 1: to all the governors that were the official policy of 991 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 1: the White House, the task Force, and she visited dozens 992 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:50,279 Speaker 1: of states, and you know, with those visits all these 993 00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 1: public health officials. I visited one state, Florida. Unfortunately, the 994 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 1: lockdowns were implemented. They succeeded the Burke Spouchy lockdowns were 995 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 1: successfully transmitted to the governors who implemented them throughout most 996 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:08,360 Speaker 1: of the country throughout the entire year of and they failed. 997 00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:11,240 Speaker 1: They failed to stop the spread, they failed to protect 998 00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,040 Speaker 1: the elderly, and they destroyed families. And I've said this 999 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:16,759 Speaker 1: many times, but it's so important because this is the 1000 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:20,440 Speaker 1: biggest failure of public health policy and modern history. Well yeah, 1001 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:22,279 Speaker 1: I mean I think it's the you know that the 1002 00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:24,440 Speaker 1: biggest failure of the media. I mean, it's just I 1003 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:28,240 Speaker 1: don't think people really realize we've just had a complete 1004 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 1: reshaping of American society throughout COVID, from the role of 1005 00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 1: the federal government and our lives to the role of 1006 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 1: the media, place loss of loss and trust of institutions. 1007 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:41,160 Speaker 1: I mean there's just been a complete and total societal breakdown, 1008 00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 1: and I don't think that's been fully discovered yet. You 1009 00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,239 Speaker 1: talk about too, like another big aspect of this was 1010 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 1: just getting kids back to school, right, these low risk kids, 1011 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 1: of allowing them to live their lives. And you talk 1012 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:57,480 Speaker 1: about like, even in the presence of actual data, that 1013 00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 1: people like Fauci, Berkes and Redfield were so resistant to 1014 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 1: getting these kids back in school. Talk about that, sure, well, 1015 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I distinctly remember, of course, one of the 1016 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 1: uh one of the earliest Task Force meetings that I 1017 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: went to, which was I think, you know, mid mid August, 1018 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:19,400 Speaker 1: and the Vice President who was administratively running the Task Force, 1019 00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:23,360 Speaker 1: had wanted me to talk about the risk to children 1020 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:26,800 Speaker 1: these are these schools opening. And I went through the data. 1021 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,759 Speaker 1: In fact, I had brought with me more than a 1022 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,879 Speaker 1: dozen papers in my briefcase, and I pulled them out 1023 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,359 Speaker 1: and I went through. I cited the data from all 1024 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:37,320 Speaker 1: over the world on the extremely low risk to healthy children, 1025 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 1: the extremely low risk of transmission from children, and the 1026 00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:46,759 Speaker 1: documented lack of high risk to teachers in schools from 1027 00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:48,920 Speaker 1: all over the world. And I went through a little 1028 00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 1: you know, let's just say five to ten minutes on this, 1029 00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:56,240 Speaker 1: and there was silence from Dr Burke's, silence from Dr Fauci. 1030 00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:58,440 Speaker 1: There was no refutation of what I said. They didn't 1031 00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 1: cite a single study. And the Vice President turned to 1032 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,840 Speaker 1: Dr Redfield and said, well, what do you think, Bob, 1033 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:09,640 Speaker 1: and Redfield leaned back, thought for a second. He said, 1034 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 1: let's just say the jury is still out. That was 1035 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:15,160 Speaker 1: the end of the discussion. I mean, you know, this 1036 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 1: is no scientific uh knowledge about the data, nothing to 1037 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:24,800 Speaker 1: refute what I said. And then you know that this 1038 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: sort of was very confusing to the public because and 1039 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 1: harmful the advice. As we know, the schools in the 1040 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 1: United States were closed in the fall term. All the 1041 00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:38,400 Speaker 1: pure nations in Western Europe opened the schools. We were 1042 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:45,200 Speaker 1: the outlier. The American educational system was a complete, really 1043 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:49,680 Speaker 1: immoral abuse of children by shutting down schools, and they 1044 00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 1: had impact. The isolation was extraordinarily harmful. I mean, the 1045 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 1: way I think of it, there's nothing more important that 1046 00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 1: a society does and educate its children. Yet we chose 1047 00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:04,720 Speaker 1: out of fear and ignorance, and in my view it 1048 00:58:04,840 --> 00:58:09,960 Speaker 1: was too with this uh miss misinappropriate idea of protecting 1049 00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 1: adults by using children, sacrificing children even though the children, 1050 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 1: healthy children, did not have a significant risk from COVID 1051 00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:21,000 Speaker 1: and that's been proven, that was known then. It's not 1052 00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 1: new information, by the way, So you know this is 1053 00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:28,480 Speaker 1: really it's almost unspeakable what was done. Well, you know 1054 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 1: they're doing that now with vaccines as well. You know, 1055 00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 1: even children who aren't at risk. They're essentially, you know, 1056 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:36,400 Speaker 1: trying to to push kids to to get them, which 1057 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 1: sort of defies logic. In my book, Um, so I 1058 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:41,920 Speaker 1: thought you'd get a kick out of this. So Political 1059 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 1: Political Playbook wrote about how Faucy was at a Jonathan 1060 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:50,400 Speaker 1: Carl book party, and it notes that he kept taking 1061 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:52,400 Speaker 1: the mask on and off for cockers who are trying 1062 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,160 Speaker 1: to take pictures of them with it out his mask on, 1063 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:56,840 Speaker 1: and then when asked about it, he said, I just 1064 00:58:56,880 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 1: decided that if anyone came up to me that I 1065 00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:01,760 Speaker 1: didn't know, I would put my mask on. Doesn't that 1066 00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:06,439 Speaker 1: summarize the theater surrounding masks and also explain Fauci a lot. Well, 1067 00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:09,400 Speaker 1: let's hits with this. Anybody who thinks that that makes 1068 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:13,560 Speaker 1: sense is I mean, you know, I don't want to 1069 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:15,880 Speaker 1: be rude, but I mean That is just ludicrous. I mean, 1070 00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:18,680 Speaker 1: what what is the what is the basis of putting 1071 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 1: on a mask because you don't know people. If it's 1072 00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:25,680 Speaker 1: just to uh have an image, I think that it's 1073 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:28,959 Speaker 1: very revealing. I mean, let's put it this way. It 1074 00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:32,400 Speaker 1: was not uncommon. I heard the people on the task force, 1075 00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 1: the doctors on the task force, refer to people in 1076 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: the media, their media friends by the first name. Okay, 1077 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 1: this is you know, when I was speaking about the data. 1078 00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:45,480 Speaker 1: The result of that was not talking back to me. 1079 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 1: The result of that was going outside to their friends 1080 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:52,240 Speaker 1: and the media and using ad hominum attack and distorting 1081 00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:56,920 Speaker 1: my words. So this was sort of all about the image, 1082 00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,040 Speaker 1: the power. I don't know what was going on. I 1083 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:03,360 Speaker 1: hate to ascribe motive, but there was a gross failure there, 1084 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,320 Speaker 1: and I think this is really uh, we can never 1085 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,880 Speaker 1: let this happen again. We cannot have people who aren't 1086 01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 1: critical thinkers, uh, you know, in charge of a crisis. 1087 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:17,920 Speaker 1: I mean that this should goes without saying, but I 1088 01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:22,000 Speaker 1: mean this was just a shocking failure. And and you know, 1089 01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:24,680 Speaker 1: they got what they wanted, which were the lockdowns, and 1090 01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:27,440 Speaker 1: the lockdowns failed. So now we're seeing this or welly 1091 01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 1: in attempt to rewrite history, blaming people like me who 1092 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:34,680 Speaker 1: were opposed to what was implemented for the failure of 1093 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:38,919 Speaker 1: what was implemented. You know, this is just another kind 1094 01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:41,600 Speaker 1: of thing that shows I mean, it's important for people 1095 01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 1: to understand who are listening. I'm sorry I'm going on, 1096 01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:48,080 Speaker 1: but when you see people who are issuing erratic statements, 1097 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:51,320 Speaker 1: who are obviously just saying, oh, it's the science, but 1098 01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:53,400 Speaker 1: they don't know the science, or they're doing things that 1099 01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:56,560 Speaker 1: are contrary to science, this is how you decide who 1100 01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 1: to trust. You must be a critical thinker. Now, the 1101 01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 1: burden is on individuals, okay, all of us to become 1102 01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:08,800 Speaker 1: more involved in our own critical thinking, in our own beliefs, 1103 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 1: in short of our own filter here to decide what 1104 01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:15,720 Speaker 1: is credible what isn't. It's more of an effort but 1105 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:18,920 Speaker 1: to trust. The blind trust in people who are deemed 1106 01:01:19,160 --> 01:01:23,160 Speaker 1: experts should be gone. That should be gone. We've learned 1107 01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,960 Speaker 1: that now. Uh, it's not you know, I don't know 1108 01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:29,400 Speaker 1: if I said this, but you know, we all need 1109 01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:32,040 Speaker 1: to be critical thinkers here to make the best decisions 1110 01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:34,960 Speaker 1: for ourselves and our family. Well, and our MASK policy 1111 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 1: has always been done because I mean, who thinks it's 1112 01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:39,720 Speaker 1: a good idea to wear one when you enter a 1113 01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:41,640 Speaker 1: restaurant and then you take it off when you're seated 1114 01:01:41,680 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 1: next to people, or to wear it on a flight, 1115 01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 1: as we currently do, and then take it off when 1116 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:47,320 Speaker 1: you're next to people. I mean, none of it has 1117 01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:51,120 Speaker 1: ever made sense, yet they continues to be pushed. I mean, 1118 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:53,520 Speaker 1: what is the data and the science say about masks? 1119 01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 1: Do they work? Okay? So you know in terms of 1120 01:01:56,440 --> 01:02:01,840 Speaker 1: widespread population mass. Uh, there are several good studies out there, 1121 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:04,560 Speaker 1: and people should look at the good studies. The best study, 1122 01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:09,959 Speaker 1: the randomized controlled trial of Denmark shows uh. They took 1123 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:13,120 Speaker 1: more than six thousand people. They took people with masks 1124 01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:16,760 Speaker 1: and people without masks. They tested them by blood test 1125 01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 1: for not just stars too, but other eleven other viruses, 1126 01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:24,680 Speaker 1: and they found that people that wear masks do not 1127 01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 1: have a significantly less incidents of stars to infection. Neither 1128 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:34,160 Speaker 1: do they have a less lesser incidence of any of 1129 01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 1: the other eleven viruses. By the way, and this corroborates 1130 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:40,440 Speaker 1: what was known in the randomized trials about influenza that 1131 01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:45,520 Speaker 1: was published by the CDC in May that mass general 1132 01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:50,400 Speaker 1: population masks do not prevent the spread of infection or 1133 01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 1: the becoming infect that the recipient side of it in influenza. 1134 01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:58,240 Speaker 1: Why is that relevant because influenza is the same size 1135 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:02,080 Speaker 1: as roughly as the stars to virus, which is smaller 1136 01:03:02,120 --> 01:03:06,000 Speaker 1: than the poor size on the mask. Smaller the virus 1137 01:03:06,040 --> 01:03:08,720 Speaker 1: is smaller in the hole in the mask. Secondly, we 1138 01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:11,720 Speaker 1: look at the other studies, look at that Denmark. The 1139 01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:14,480 Speaker 1: next study to look at is the University of Louisville 1140 01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:18,680 Speaker 1: did a very detailed analysis of all the states and 1141 01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:24,200 Speaker 1: their conclusions were that mask wearing mask mandates did not 1142 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 1: stop the spread of infection, and mask wearing did not 1143 01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:32,880 Speaker 1: stop the spread of infection in states. And then you 1144 01:03:32,920 --> 01:03:36,120 Speaker 1: look at the next UH paper that came out, which 1145 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:38,000 Speaker 1: is the study that received a lot of attention on 1146 01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:41,760 Speaker 1: Bangladesh villages. And then you know, people were you know, 1147 01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:43,600 Speaker 1: this is after a year and a half, they're still 1148 01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 1: desperately trying to find something that validates masked widespread mask using, 1149 01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:52,160 Speaker 1: and they look at this Bangladesh study which was a 1150 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:56,360 Speaker 1: study where villagers were instruct some villagers some villages were 1151 01:03:56,360 --> 01:04:00,080 Speaker 1: instructed to wear masks, other villages were not instruct that 1152 01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 1: the wear masks and what the authors reported was an 1153 01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:08,280 Speaker 1: eleven percent decrease in symptomatic COVID in villages that were 1154 01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:11,640 Speaker 1: instructed to wear mass, not in the mass wears necessarily. 1155 01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:15,080 Speaker 1: Just so they said there was a small decrease in 1156 01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:17,320 Speaker 1: symptomatic COVID. And when you look at the data and 1157 01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:21,800 Speaker 1: the studies, not only was that effect small, but the 1158 01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:25,080 Speaker 1: only people they had to reduce incidence of symptomatic COVID 1159 01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 1: were people in a single age bracket fifty and above. 1160 01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:32,320 Speaker 1: People forty to fifty didn't have a decrease, People thirty 1161 01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:35,080 Speaker 1: to forty didn't have a decrease in symptomatic COVID. So 1162 01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:36,880 Speaker 1: you have to wonder did the people who were older, 1163 01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:39,200 Speaker 1: were they more cautious, did they avoid groups that they 1164 01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:41,760 Speaker 1: do other things that might have reduced it. The second 1165 01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:44,080 Speaker 1: part of this that was the surgical mass site. The 1166 01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:47,400 Speaker 1: regular mass of people wear, by the way, had zero 1167 01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:50,920 Speaker 1: significance in terms of its reduction. So the study was 1168 01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:55,120 Speaker 1: lauded in the lay media by these mask uh MASK 1169 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:58,840 Speaker 1: advocates as proving mass work, but the in fact it 1170 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,880 Speaker 1: was supportive that mass do not have a significant impact 1171 01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:05,520 Speaker 1: on limiting a spread of COVID, and so enough in 1172 01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:08,400 Speaker 1: the infection. So I mean, you know, you know, there's 1173 01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:11,439 Speaker 1: this new study that came out recently, and basically that's 1174 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,960 Speaker 1: just a meta analysis of a bunch of studies in 1175 01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:17,560 Speaker 1: which they in this article admitted that the studies themselves 1176 01:05:17,840 --> 01:05:21,240 Speaker 1: were poor research. Yet somehow this is now the title. 1177 01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:26,320 Speaker 1: So people are desperate, Okay, masks. I'm not for forbidding masks, 1178 01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 1: just like I'm not for forbidding wearing a copper bracelet 1179 01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 1: for arthritis. If you want to wear a mask, if 1180 01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:34,240 Speaker 1: you want to wear a six masks, that's fine, but 1181 01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:38,800 Speaker 1: it's very dangerous to say what Dr Redfield said under Oath. 1182 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:41,480 Speaker 1: He said two things, and this is in my book 1183 01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:46,280 Speaker 1: Under Oath. He said, where if everybody wore a mask, 1184 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:50,040 Speaker 1: we'd get rid of the pandemic in six to eight weeks. Okay, 1185 01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:54,040 Speaker 1: that's just completely nonsense, and it's been proven all over 1186 01:05:54,080 --> 01:06:01,120 Speaker 1: the world, including societies where people are wearing masks. Secondly, 1187 01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:04,640 Speaker 1: he said he held up a mask and infamously said, 1188 01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:08,520 Speaker 1: this mask is more protective than a vaccine. Now, why 1189 01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:11,120 Speaker 1: is that a problem. First of all, it's it's completely 1190 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:16,680 Speaker 1: irrational and bizarre. Second of all, it's dangerous if you 1191 01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:20,600 Speaker 1: think that an old person whose high risk is more 1192 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:25,280 Speaker 1: protected by wearing a mask. You're endangering them if they 1193 01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:28,920 Speaker 1: think that, and so, uh, you know, this is very dangerous. 1194 01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:32,160 Speaker 1: The misstatements coming out of some of our most trusted 1195 01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:37,640 Speaker 1: public health leaders are shocking. We saw it publicly. I 1196 01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 1: saw it inside the task Force, as I note multiple 1197 01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 1: times multiple conversations in the book. And I think again, 1198 01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:49,240 Speaker 1: we've destroyed the trust that is necessary for people when 1199 01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:51,640 Speaker 1: a crisis arises, and so we have a long way 1200 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:54,000 Speaker 1: to dig out from that hole that was created by 1201 01:06:54,120 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 1: these people in public health leadership.
