1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:01,520
Speaker 1: Welcome.

2
00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 2: It is Verdict with center, Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson. With you, Senator,

3
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 2: we have got China, China and Hunter Biden and China

4
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 2: all in one podcast today. Let's start first with Hunter

5
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 2: Biden and the art sales. We were told that this

6
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 2: was going to be the most transparent government and history

7
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 2: from the Biden team. We were also told that they

8
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 2: were going to not know who the buyers of the

9
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 2: art were, and that was part of the separation between

10
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 2: the two worlds, so that no one could buy influence.

11
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 2: The liberal hardcore left Washington Post is now reporting that

12
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 2: Hunter Biden's paintings have sold for a total of at

13
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 2: least one point five million, And we're also being told

14
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 2: that he knows the mass majority of those people that

15
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 2: were purchasing art from him, including his sugar daddy, who's

16
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 2: also bought some of this art, the same guy that

17
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 2: has his ten percent stake in a Chinese energy company.

18
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 2: It's a lot to unpack. Give me your overthoughts on this.

19
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 3: Well, look, they were right that they said it would

20
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 3: be the most transparent in history, and it's the most

21
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 3: transparent lie. It's the most transparent fraud, it's the most

22
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 3: transparent money laundering scheme in history. So they were right.

23
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 3: They just admitted a few words. Look, this is the

24
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 3: Washington Post reporting. You know it's bad when the Post

25
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 3: is forced to report. The Washington Post tells us that

26
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,960
Speaker 3: in total, there have been ten buyers of the art,

27
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 3: and collectively they have paid one point five million dollars.

28
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 3: Only three of the buyers have been identified, so there's

29
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 3: seven mystery buyers. We don't know who they are. But

30
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 3: of the three buyers that have been identified, the largest

31
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 3: one goes to Kevin Morris. Kevin Morris is the lawyer

32
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 3: out in California who, as you said, is basically Hunter's

33
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 3: sugar daddy. Kevin Morris purchased eleven paintings for a total

34
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 3: of eight hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. Eleven paintings

35
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 3: one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. Now, mind you,

36
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 3: this is the same Kevin Morris who purchased a ten

37
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 3: percent stake in the Chinese firm Hunter was working with.

38
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 3: This is the same Kevin Morris who has allegedly lent

39
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 3: and remember we did when we did the multi episode

40
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 3: interview with James Comer, he explained how loans were the

41
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 3: newest form of money laundering that they were trying to

42
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 3: get around the tax laws and just conveniently have loans

43
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 3: that are never repaid. Well, this Kevin Morris has quote

44
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 3: loaned Hunter Biden roughly five million dollars. In fact, it

45
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 3: was Kevin Morris's money that paid off what Hunter Biden

46
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 3: owed to the IRS. So this Kevin Morris is writing

47
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 3: a lot of checks to Hunter. But it's not just

48
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 3: Kevin Morris. We also know of another person, a Democratic donor,

49
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 3: Elizabeth Knaftali, who purchased two pieces of art, one for

50
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 3: fifty two thousand dollars and another for forty two thousand dollars.

51
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 3: So she's up at ninety four thousand dollars that has

52
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 3: gone to Hunt. And it's worth noting that President Biden

53
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 3: appointed her in twenty twenty two to the US Commission

54
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 3: for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad. This is naked,

55
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 3: this is brazen, This is obvious.

56
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 2: It's not only obvious, but there have been major warnings

57
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:26,079
Speaker 2: from our government about using art for money laundering purposes.

58
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: And this was a clear decision.

59
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 2: By the Biden team or Hunter Biden directly to figure

60
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 2: out ways to still make money while there was so

61
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 2: much scrutiny on his other business dealings. We were also

62
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 2: told that he had divested all of his investments in China.

63
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 2: That wasn't true. In fact, we played a montage on

64
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 2: the show Center not that long ago of all the

65
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: times that Joe Biden lied to the American people saying they'd

66
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 2: never made a dollar a dime from China.

67
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: That was also a lie here.

68
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: And so now it seems that not only did they

69
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 2: know that money laundering could come through art sales, but

70
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 2: they definitely needed to know who was buying their art,

71
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: so they knew who.

72
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: To take care of.

73
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 2: One of those examples, and this came out when we

74
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 2: had the first hostages that were released in Gaza. The

75
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 2: first American release had direct ties to Hunter Biden and

76
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 2: the president United States of America had received an appointment

77
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: from the President, and not only that had also bought

78
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,679
Speaker 2: artwork from Hunter Biden.

79
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 3: Well, and it's worth noting that this is exactly the

80
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 3: opposite of what the Biden White House told the American people. So,

81
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 3: for example, in twenty twenty one, here's what CNN reported,

82
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 3: quote two sources familiar with the sales arrangement told CNN

83
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 3: that the purchaser of the art work will be kept anonymous,

84
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 3: and neither Hunter, Biden nor the public will have knowledge

85
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 3: of who bids on or purchase the work. If there

86
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 3: is any unusual behavior, such as the offer price being

87
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,359
Speaker 3: too high or the collector doesn't appear interested in the work,

88
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 3: the gallery is expected to turn down the offer. The

89
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 3: sources said. Now that was just a brazen line. Even

90
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,919
Speaker 3: the Biden White House, I assume, is not going to

91
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 3: maintain that Hunter didn't know about his buddy Kevin buying

92
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 3: eleven paintings. I don't know if he's setting it up

93
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 3: as like his wallpaper is nothing but Hunter Biden paintings

94
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 3: and spending eight hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. They

95
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 3: claimed it was anonymous. It's obviously not anonymous. And look,

96
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 3: if these were ordinary art sales, why does it just

97
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 3: happen to be that they are Democrat funders and Democrat

98
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 3: funders who are in turn getting rewarded with appointments from

99
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 3: the President of the United States.

100
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 2: I also want to talk about another aspect of Kevin Morris.

101
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 2: Kevin Morris has obviously opened up his bank account to

102
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 2: Hunter Biden. He claims it's a loan. At some point,

103
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 2: you're supposed to pay back a loan, unless it's student loans,

104
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 2: and apparently Joe Biden and the Biden team doesn't think

105
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 2: you ever have to actually pay those back. But Kevin

106
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 2: Morris has now confirmed that he owns keyword owns Hunter

107
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 2: Biden's ten percent steak in a Chinese state back investment fund.

108
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 2: This was verified by House Investigators last week that he

109
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 2: purchased Hunters ten percent stake in the Chinese state backed

110
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 2: investment fund BHR Partners confirming this now for the first time,

111
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: and then Morris's ownership of the steak is raising major

112
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 2: questions about his intent for the acquisition and also the

113
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 2: money that he's giving to Hunter Biden. Is it really

114
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 2: a own or is he just funneling those profits or

115
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 2: part of that ten percent of a payoff here for

116
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 2: that stake in that Chinese company.

117
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: This stinks to high heaven.

118
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 3: And by the way, Kevin Morris has not disclosed Hunter

119
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 3: Biden is not disclosed how much Kevin Morris paid Hunter

120
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 3: Biden for ten percent in the Chinese State back and

121
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 3: Investment fund. Another events investment fund is called b EHR Partners,

122
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 3: and we now know that Morris purchased Hunter Steak. Hunter

123
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: had ten percent because Hunter needed to get rid of

124
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 3: it once Joe Biden became president. BHR Partners is an

125
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 3: entity that is controlled by the Bank of China and

126
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 3: it has about three billion dollars currently invested around the world.

127
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 3: That's according to BHR Partner's own website. Now, Morris has

128
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 3: claimed that he purchased the company because it was quote

129
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 3: a good business investment. But of course we don't know

130
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 3: how much he paid. And Morris performed the due diligence

131
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 3: on the entity holding the ten percent stake in BHR Partners.

132
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 3: That entity is named scan Italy's LLC. I don't know

133
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 3: what scan Italy means, but that apparently is what the

134
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 3: name of it was. And he said he knew the

135
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 3: price that Hunter paid initially for the stake, and he said,

136
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 3: quote I saw and I still see upside. Well, you

137
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 3: know what it can be very lucrative funding funneling millions

138
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 3: of dollars to the Biden family. There's an entire enterprise

139
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 3: they have. And how is it possible that no one

140
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 3: has disclosed how much he paid The Bank of China,

141
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 3: which is a state owned bank controls BHR partners. The

142
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 3: fund claims that it maintains twenty two billion Chinese yawn

143
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 3: in various portfolio companies, which is more than three billion dollars.

144
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 3: It reports investments in companies like dd Chuck Sing, a

145
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 3: Chinese technology group, Cattle, a lithium ion manufacturer, meg v

146
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 3: a deep learning software developer, and in Silico Medicine, a

147
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 3: biotechnology company. This stinks to high heaven. And you have

148
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 3: to ask all of the so called reporters who reported

149
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 3: on the lies from the White House. Hunter won't know

150
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 3: who's buying the art hunter, won't know who's funneling in

151
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 3: the cash hunter, this will be entirely anonymous. How many

152
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 3: of those reporters are apologizing. How many of those reporters

153
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,719
Speaker 3: are going back and correcting their stories. How many of

154
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 3: those reporters are standing up at the White House press

155
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 3: conference and saying, why did you lie to us? Why

156
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 3: did you entice us into lying to the American people?

157
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 3: And I think very few of the reporters are doing

158
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 3: so because they knew they were lying when they said it.

159
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 3: Nobody with their head not inserted somewhere where it's really dark,

160
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 3: bought it for a moment, and it's because this was

161
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 3: obviously going to be the outcome.

162
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 2: For ten years, Patriot Mobile has been America's only Christian

163
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 2: conservative wireless provider. And let me just tell you, in

164
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, if you're like me, you had a

165
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 2: new Year's resolution. Mine was I'm going to stop giving

166
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 2: my money to companies that literally hate my values and

167
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,959
Speaker 2: hate what I stand for. That is why when I

168
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 2: look at my cell phone now in the top left

169
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 2: it Patriot Yes, Patriot Mobile is an incredible company that

170
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 2: gives you nationwide dependable coverage, giving you the same ability

171
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: to access all three major networks that your phone is

172
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 2: using right now, which means you get the same coverage

173
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 2: that you're accustomed to. But most importantly, without funding the left.

174
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 2: You may not realize that Big Mobile gives big donations

175
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 2: to causes and organizations that go completely against your conservative values.

176
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 2: We're talking about giving big donations to democratic causes, candidates,

177
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 2: and plan parenthood. Well, if you're tired of giving your

178
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 2: money to people that hate your values, switch with me

179
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 2: to Patriot Mobile. You're not only sending a message that

180
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 2: you support free speech, but when you pay your bill

181
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 2: every month, five percent of that bill goes back to

182
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 2: support conservative causes, supportings free speech, supporting religious freedom, supporting

183
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 2: the sanctity of life, supporting your Second Amendment rights as

184
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 2: well as our military, our veterans, and our first responders.

185
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 2: How easy is it to switch? One hundred percent US

195
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 2: to ask you about Kevin Morris here and what we've

196
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 2: found out. His ownership obviously raises serious questions about his

197
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 2: intent for this acquisition. Did he have the bidens in

198
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 2: a bad situation to be able to grab this ten

199
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 2: percent stake because clearly it's worth a lot of money.

200
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 2: And then when he says I'm letting giving and letting

201
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 2: people borrow money from me, but no one's paying it back.

202
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 2: Yet that also could turn into a bigger part of

203
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 2: this investigation on the House side, correct.

204
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:03,319
Speaker 1: It could?

205
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 3: I mean, we know that that Hunter in twenty nineteen

206
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 3: paid or that Morris in twenty nineteen paid Hunter's irs

207
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 3: date debts and reportedly lent him four point nine million

208
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 3: dollars for housing, for car, payments for legal fees, and

209
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 3: repayment of the debt you know when it's due after

210
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty four election. Conveniently, oh, just just never mind,

211
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 3: not until after election day and then miraculously, you know,

212
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 3: you may have just lost the bill. Well, maybe I'll just, like,

213
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 3: you know, paint something on a postcard and give it

214
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 3: to you, and maybe that'll pay off the debt.

215
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 1: Centata.

216
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 2: I also want to move to this other important story

217
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 2: that also deals with China, and that is Chinese lab

218
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 2: mapped the deadly coronavirus two weeks before Beijing told the world.

219
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 2: New documents are showing from the Wall Street Journal. They

220
00:12:55,920 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 2: say Chinese researchers isolated and mapped the virus that caused

221
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 2: COVID nineteen in late December twenty nineteen. That's at least

222
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 2: two weeks before Beijing revealed details the deadly virus to

223
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 2: the world.

224
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: What does it mean.

225
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 2: It means they knew about it, Congressional investigators have said.

226
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 2: So this raises serious questions about what China knew in

227
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 2: the pandemic's crucial early days. These documents, that were obtained

228
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 2: from the US Department of Health and Human Services by

229
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 2: a House committee and reviewed by The Wall Street Journal,

230
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 2: showed that the a Chinese researcher in Beijing also uploaded

231
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: a nearly complete sequence of the virus's structure, most importantly,

232
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 2: to a US government run database on December the twenty

233
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 2: eighth of twenty nineteen.

234
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 1: Wow.

235
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 3: Well, and at that time, on December twenty eight, twenty nineteen,

236
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 3: Chinese officials were publicly describing the disease outbreak in Wuhan

237
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 3: as a viral pneumonia quote of unknown cause. And so

238
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,439
Speaker 3: they're pretending they don't know what this is. And yet

239
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 3: they had an almost complete genetic map of it before

240
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 3: it had spread out of Wuhan, before it had spread

241
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,359
Speaker 3: across the world, before it had become a global pandemic.

242
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:20,119
Speaker 3: And look, this underscores the point that we have discussed

243
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 3: at length. I think the evidence is overwhelming and it

244
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 3: has just become even more overwhelming that this virus escaped

245
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 3: from a Chinese government lab in Wuhan, China. I think

246
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 3: the evidence is significant. It's not necessarily irrefutable, but it

247
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 3: is significant. It is more likely than not that this

248
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 3: virus was created in that Chinese government lab, that they

249
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 3: took naturally occurring viruses and they altered them using gain

250
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 3: of function research to make them more transmissible, to make

251
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 3: them more deadly for humans, and that the virus they

252
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 3: created in the lab is the one that escaped. That

253
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 3: would certainly explain why they had a genetic map to it,

254
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 3: because they had designed it and designed it to be deadly.

255
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: It is worth.

256
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 3: Remembering that when the COVID pandemic began, the federal government,

257
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 3: with doctor Fauci at the point, insisted that it was

258
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 3: a wild conspiracy theory to say that COVID came from

259
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 3: a Chinese government lab, and the corporate media, like Docile

260
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 3: Braying Sheep, echoed the same thing. We know that doctor

261
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 3: Fauci directly communicated with Mark Zuckerberg and asked Mark Zuckerberg

262
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 3: to have Facebook suppress anyone making the argument that COVID

263
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 3: came from a Chinese government lab. Now the Verdict podcast.

264
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 3: We did multiple podcasts in March and April of twenty twenty,

265
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 3: right when this virus was spreading, laying out the evidence

266
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 3: then that COVID came from a Chinese government lab. Verdict

267
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 3: was one of the very few places you could get

268
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 3: that information. You couldn't get it on most of social media.

269
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 3: The corporate media would not air it, and in fact

270
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 3: they would denounce you as a racist, tinfoil hat wearing

271
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 3: lunatic if you said it. It just happened to be

272
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 3: true and factual, but never let that get in the

273
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 3: way of today's so called journalists.

274
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 2: This also, I think is very revealing about maybe why

275
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: Fauci was just so arrogant early on and so quick

276
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 2: to say that this was not gaina function research. It

277
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 2: may have actually been as simplistic of he was covering

278
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 2: his own ass, to be honest, because he understood just

279
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 2: how bad this was going to make a look if

280
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 2: it came out that the United States was sending money

281
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 2: to Wuhan for gain of function research, and sure enough

282
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 2: it gets out and then it kills off many people

283
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 2: in the world, And yet he went on faith the nation.

284
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 2: I have to remind people this this was back in

285
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 2: eleven eight of twenty twenty one, Fauci said this.

286
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 4: But if they get up and really aim their bullets

287
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 4: at Tony Fauci, well people could recognize there as a

288
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 4: person there.

289
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 1: So it's easy to criticize.

290
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 4: But they're really criticizing science because I represent science.

291
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 1: That's dangerous.

292
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 2: I'm science. I am the science, right, I mean that

293
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 2: was that was Hey, Fauci is God. You can't question me.

294
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 2: I am the science. You don't know what you're talking about.

295
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 2: And it seems like now this was just a full

296
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 2: blown to your cover up for him while you had

297
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 2: the power to do it.

298
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 3: Yes, as you know, there is an entire chapter in

299
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 3: my latest book, Unwoke, How to Defeat Cultural Marxism in America,

300
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 3: an entire chapter that is dedicated to science. And actually

301
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 3: the chapter is called the Science. And so that quote

302
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:07,679
Speaker 3: where Fauci says I am science, it is reminiscent of

303
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 3: Louis the fourteenth who said LETTASSEMOI I am the state.

304
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 3: Fauci says, I am the science. And there is an

305
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,919
Speaker 3: arrogance to it, there is a politicization to it, and

306
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 3: there is a dishonesty to it. And by the way,

307
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 3: I walk through these facts in great detail in the

308
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 3: book Unwoke. So if you haven't gone and bought on Woke,

309
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 3: you got to go online and buy it because it

310
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 3: goes into great detail about this deception and look. Based

311
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:40,959
Speaker 3: on the latest news, we know we know that now

312
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 3: the Chinese researcher who submitted the virus sequence is a

313
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 3: researcher named doctor Lilly Wren of the Beijing based Institute

314
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 3: of pathogen Biology. Now, doctor Wren did not respond to

315
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 3: an email seeking comment. The institute is part of the

316
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 3: state of filing Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. Now here's

317
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 3: what the Chinese embassy is saying.

318
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: Now.

319
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 3: Quote, China has kept refining our COVID response based on

320
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 3: science to make it more targeted, the Chinese spokesperson continued.

321
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: Quote.

322
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 3: China's COVID response policies are science based, effective and consistent

323
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 3: with China's national realities. They can stand the test of history.

324
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 3: But here is the timing. Doctor Wren submitted the virus

325
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 3: to the US database on December twenty eighth, twenty nineteen,

326
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,239
Speaker 3: to a genetic database that is called GenBank and it

327
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 3: is run by the US National Institutes of Health. The

328
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 3: first known publication of the of the sequence of the

329
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,199
Speaker 3: COVID virus that had been identified and it's called SARS

330
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 3: cove two, came on January eleventh, twenty twenty, so roughly

331
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 3: two weeks later, and that was after Chinese authorities shared

332
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 3: that information with a World Health organization. Now, interestingly enough,

333
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 3: the sequence that Ren provided in December of twenty nineteen

334
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 3: was never published and was deleted from the database on

335
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 3: January sixteenth, twenty twenty, after the NIH asked her for

336
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 3: more technical details and she didn't respond, and according to

337
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 3: NIH protocols, if you don't respond, they deleted. So she

338
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 3: filed the sequence two weeks earlier than the world knew

339
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 3: about it, and the only explanation. And by the way,

340
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 3: the sequence published on January twelfth, twenty twenty was nearly identical,

341
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 3: nearly identical to the sequence that was submitted by Lily RN.

342
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 3: What does this mean. It means China knew what COVID was.

343
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,360
Speaker 3: It knew before the world did. It kept it a secret.

344
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 3: And the reason is obvious, which is that China had

345
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 3: COVID before the world did in a Chinese lab and

346
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 3: then it escaped and poisoned the world.

347
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 2: Which brings me to my next question, probably the most

348
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 2: important one. If everything that we're now finding out is accurate,

349
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 2: there's a reasona believe that it's not, and the wheels

350
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 2: are falling off. What I would refer to now as

351
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,360
Speaker 2: a queer cover up. Did Fauci and in fact join

352
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 2: the Chinese government and helping cover it up with his

353
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 2: testimony and with him not being honest with the American people.

354
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: Of course he did.

355
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 3: Fauci actively aggressively tried to suppress scientific inquiry, scientific discussion,

356
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 3: public discussion, social media discussion. Fauci actively wanted to censor

357
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 3: anyone pointing out that this came from a Chinese government lab. Now,

358
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 3: the most likely reason is that Fauci, also, I believe,

359
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 3: bears real responsibility for helping fund the research that created COVID.

360
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 3: I think he was covering his own ass, not wanting

361
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 3: people to know of his responsibility for it. And so look,

362
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 3: when people are guilty, they engage in cover ups. It's

363
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 3: why the White House covers up Hunter Biden's art sales.

364
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 3: It's the same reason Fauci covers up the Chinese government

365
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 3: labs complicity is because he was complicit as well, and

366
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 3: that's why he was trying to silence and stifle inquiry.

367
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 3: And remember this is a man who says I am science,

368
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 3: and so you cannot question the man behind the curtain.

369
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 2: Lastly, will there be any accountability for Fauci? Obviously not

370
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 2: with this administration, but is there a way to hold

371
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 2: him accountable for this in the future if Republicans gain

372
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 2: control of the Senate they have the House in this

373
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 2: next election that comes up. Or is it just yeah,

374
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 2: he lied, he got away with it. He lied under oath,

375
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:38,959
Speaker 2: so be it.

376
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 1: Move on. Look.

377
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 3: I hope that Fauci is held accountable. I believe the

378
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 3: Department of Justice should investigate him and very possibly indict

379
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:54,199
Speaker 3: and prosecute him for lying under oath to Congress. Listen,

380
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 3: if you look at these new documents. The Wall Street

381
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 3: Journal reports that doctor wren is List didn't contract documents

382
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 3: as being a collaborator on a US funded project to

383
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 3: show how coronaviruses can be transferred from animals to humans.

384
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 3: The work, which included collecting bat samples in China, was

385
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:28,120
Speaker 3: overseen by the nonprofit EcoHealth Alliance, and those facts we

386
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 3: pointed out on this podcast in March of twenty twenty,

387
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 3: right at the outset of the pandemic that the bats

388
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 3: that were supposedly the source of this virus, the closest

389
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 3: they occurred in nature was nine hundred miles away from Wuhan,

390
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 3: But where you could find the bat viruses was in

391
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 3: the Wuhan Institute for Virology, which was just nine miles

392
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 3: away from the wet market where the outbreak first occurred.

393
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 3: And as I pointed out and in my book Unwoke,

394
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:05,400
Speaker 3: the odds of that randomly happening of an outbreak randomly

395
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 3: happening within nine miles from a lab that was studying

396
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,680
Speaker 3: the same virus, just on a pure mathematical level, is

397
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 3: less than one in ten thousand. It's why it was

398
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 3: obvious on the front end. But we had vested interests

399
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 3: in our government, most specifically doctor Anthony Fauci, that desperately

400
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 3: did not want the world to know the truth.

401
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,959
Speaker 2: It's a new year, twenty twenty four, and a lot

Speaker 2: Interest rates have dropped or now in the fives, a

405
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 2: lot lower than they were last year. If you have

00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 2: to move to another story that deals with oddly enough

423
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 2: China yet again and the Biden family. But this is

424
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 2: an issue at the University of Penn and the University

425
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 2: of Penn to remind people is what hosts the Biden

426
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 2: think tink and we are seeing now through the Bidenpenn

427
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:06,239
Speaker 2: Center Chinese donations have skyrocketed, including money directly from the

428
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 2: CCP linked sources. This coming from Fox News. It says

429
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 2: the University of Pennsylvania, home of President Biden's think tank,

430
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 2: recently tripled its donations originating from China. Records reviewed by

431
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 2: Fox News Digital show the Washington, DC office of Biden's

432
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 2: think tank, the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement,

433
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 2: previously found itself under a microscope after confidential documents top

434
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 2: secret documents were found at the center. The discovery led

435
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 2: to questions regarding Chinese donations to the University of Pennsylvania,

436
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 2: which harbors that think tank. And that's just the beginning

437
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 2: of this story.

438
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 3: Well it is, and the numbers are stunning. So from

439
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 3: twenty twenty one to twenty twenty two, PENN received eight

440
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 3: point six million dollars from communist China. Eight point six

441
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 3: million in one year. Now that number is staggering, but

442
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:07,640
Speaker 3: actually the next year they tripled their hall. So between

443
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 3: mid twenty twenty two and mid twenty twenty three, PENN

444
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 3: pulled in twenty five million dollars from entities and individuals

445
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 3: in China. So they tripled the amount and overall Penn

446
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 3: has amassed nearly one hundred and thirty million dollars in

447
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 3: donations from China between mid twenty eighteen and mid twenty

448
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 3: twenty three, which is a massive, massive increase. Why is

449
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 3: China investing so heavily in Pen and Penn? Just quinky

450
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 3: Dinky happens to be the place that was paying Joe

451
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,439
Speaker 3: Biden before he was president nearly a million dollars a

452
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 3: year for a no show job where he occasionally showed

453
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 3: up to teach a class at other than that jetted

454
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 3: around the world living like the idle Rich coincidentally is

455
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 3: a university where we now know that Joe Biden I

456
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 3: legally had classified documents stored. And all of this is intertwined.

457
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 3: We know that Hunter Biden and the Biden family made

458
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 3: millions of dollars from Communist China, that Hunter Biden shook

459
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 3: down the Chinese communists for personal enrichment, and the obvious

460
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 3: inference is it wasn't just in enrichment of their family,

461
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 3: it was also in enrichment of Pen, which in turn

462
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:28,879
Speaker 3: was enriching the Biden family.

463
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 2: And the part that also is so frustrating is there's

464
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 2: really no one that's covering this story. Stuart Varney on

465
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 2: Fox Business. He did cover it and this is what

466
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 2: it sounded like. But the rest of the media is silent

467
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 2: on this.

468
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: Now, this is the University of Pennsylvania seeing a big

469
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: surch in Chinese donations. Lauren, how much are we talking about?

470
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 5: And do we know why we got this big zone?

471
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 5: How much?

472
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 6: Twenty five million dollars in one year between mid twenty

473
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 6: twenty two and the middle of last year.

474
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 5: That was triple the year before. Why. Good question. One

475
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 5: donor is actually a political consultant for the CCP.

476
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 6: Another a private equity founder in China with ties to

477
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 6: President She President Biden was a professor at penn after

478
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 6: he was vice president. The school paid him seven hundred

479
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,719
Speaker 6: and seventy six thousand dollars. That is way more than

480
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 6: a professor makes.

481
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 5: It hosts his thin tank.

482
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: Okay, you know where we're going, kid though, Yeah, I

483
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: mean Biden family has taken a great deal of money

484
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: from China.

485
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 6: Yeah right, yeah, and now the Chinese are giving money

486
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 6: to the school where his thing tank is and where

487
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 6: his personal classified documents were found.

488
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 5: Remember in the office there. Yeah.

489
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 2: One of the things in that reporting there that I

490
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 2: think we should talk about, is you're getting a donation

491
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 2: from someone that devises the Chinese Communist Party, Senator, you

492
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 2: deal with a lot of donations when you're running for office.

493
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 2: If somebody gives you a massive donation and they're advising

494
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 2: the Chinese Commist Party, I'm assuming you're not.

495
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: Going to acce future. You're going to give it back.

496
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: Of course, this is not hard.

497
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 2: And there's nobody asking the White House, Hey, are you

498
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 2: guys going to give this money back to communists that

499
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 2: are trying to clearly buy influence.

500
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 3: Well, they're clearly trying to buy influence at penn and

501
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 3: nobody gives that kind of money for nothing. They don't

502
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 3: give that kind of money without expecting to get a

503
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 3: benefit in return. And the inner connection of the Bidens.

504
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 3: Look the Bidens. All of the evidence indicates that the

505
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 3: Bidens made a decision decades ago that they were going

506
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 3: to get rich by shaking down the enemies of American

507
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 3: shaking them down, demanding millions of dollars in exchange either

508
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:48,479
Speaker 3: for favors from Joe Biden or millions of dollars in

509
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 3: order not to be targeted for retribution by Joe Biden. Now,

510
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 3: if that is correct, that it's called bribery and it

511
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 3: is a felony. It is also explicitly enumeras in the

512
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 3: Constitution as grounds for impeachment. And the entire corporate media

513
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 3: could not care one iota. The New York Times cannot

514
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 3: be bothered to worry if the president of the United

515
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 3: States has been bribed by communist China. That is not

516
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 3: news in their politicized world. CNN can't be bothered to

517
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 3: worry about an MSNBC not news there, ABCNBCCBS. Why is

518
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 3: it that you had to play Fox Business because none

519
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 3: of the corporate media is willing even to cover it.

520
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 3: Facts be damned, they have a political mission uphold.

521
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 2: Will there be any of this that you think will

522
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 2: be used to actually expose the Biden family in this

523
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 2: campaign cycle? I mean, when you're talking about this much money,

524
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 2: it's not a little bit of money, it's a hell

525
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 2: of a.

526
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 1: Lot of money.

527
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 2: And the other part here is they mentioned the numbers

528
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,239
Speaker 2: tripled right when we got closer to this election when

529
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 2: he announced he was running for reelections, Like, oh wait,

530
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 2: he's stilling the game.

531
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 3: Okay, we better send money. Look, I think there needs

532
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 3: to be a serious investigation. There needs to be enhanced

533
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 3: federal scrutiny of universities that are on the take from

534
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 3: communist China. One of the very first pieces of legislation

535
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 3: that I ever authored and passed when I was a

536
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 3: brand new baby senator, was legislation focusing on exactly this issue,

537
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 3: in particular what are called Confucius institutes. So Confucius institutes

538
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:29,479
Speaker 3: have been started at US universities all across the country,

539
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 3: and they're funded by communist China. They're controlled by communist China.

540
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 3: And China goes to the schools and say, hey, we'll

541
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 3: start this institute and your students can learn Chinese and

542
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 3: they'll get educated on China. And China uses them number

543
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 3: one for espionage and number two for propaganda to push

544
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 3: the messages that they want US college students to hear

545
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 3: from communist China. And so when I was newly elected

546
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 3: to the Senate, I introduced legislation that prohibited federal Department

547
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 3: of Defense dollars from going to a university that has

548
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 3: a Confucius institute. That if you're going to take the

549
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 3: Chinese money, you don't get DoD money. And I was

550
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 3: on the Senate Armed Services Committee at the time. I

551
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 3: introduced it. I ended up getting bipartisan support for it,

552
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 3: and it was adopted with both Democrats and Republicans supporting it.

553
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 3: It passed through the Harry Reid Senate, so we had

554
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 3: a Democrat majority Senate, and ultimately Barack Obama signed it

555
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 3: in the law. And my legislation resulted in dozens of

556
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 3: Confucius institutes shutting down because universities made the very reasonable

557
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 3: decision that they wanted DoD dollars more than the Chinese

558
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 3: money for Confucius institutes. We need to do.

559
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 1: More on this.

560
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 3: We need to cut off this Chinese money that is

561
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 3: going to universities across the board. But with PEN there

562
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 3: appears to be more than simple influence peddling. China's doing

563
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 3: this in a lot of universities, and it's a broad problem.

564
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 3: But with PEN, the volume is so great that on

565
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 3: the face of it, it seems to be deeply in

566
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 3: are twined with Joe Biden and the fact that Penn

567
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 3: gave a home forum, and so giving money to PEN

568
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 3: was a way to give money directly to Joe Biden.

569
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:15,760
Speaker 2: Inflation is heavily eroding your purchasing power, putting your savings,

570
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 2: your retirement accounts and your future legacy at risk. With

571
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 2: more taxes, the continuing threat of war, a national debtic

572
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 2: seating thirty four trillion dollars, as well as the push

573
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 2: for central bank digital currencies, our financial freedom is at stake.

574
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,320
Speaker 2: If you have fifty thousand dollars or more in retirement savings,

575
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 2: you may be at risk in times of economic uncertainty.

576
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 2: Securing your family's financial future is essential, and that's why

577
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,640

Speaker 2: if you qualify for up to ten thousand dollars in

592
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 2: free silver. Do you believe that Joe Biden will dodge

593
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 2: the debates against Donald Trump? Because now he's going to

594
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,720
Speaker 2: have to answer these questions on stage. I mean if

595
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 2: he's much more vulnerable now than he was when they

596
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 2: ran against each other last time, because last time he

597
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 2: could just say, hey, it's all a lie, the laptop's

598
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 2: a lie. I got fifty plus people they're saying it's

599
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 2: a lie. None of this is real. Now you can't

600
00:35:58,600 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 2: do that this time.

601
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually don't. I think Biden, if he is

602
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 3: the nominee, will debate. I think we'll have a couple

603
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 3: of debates. I think their strategy will be to hide

604
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 3: Joe Biden in the basement for the entirety of the campaign,

605
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 3: and so the debates may be about the only time

606
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 3: you see Biden during the entire campaign. And I think

607
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 3: for the debates they'll pump him full of a bunch

608
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,879
Speaker 3: of drugs and try to make him alert for an hour,

609
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,399
Speaker 3: for ninety minutes, and that'll be it. And look, will

610
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 3: they debate internally? Will they discuss internally? Does Joe Biden

611
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 3: skip the debate? Sure they would love to. And by

612
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 3: the way we saw precedent last cycle. The governor of

613
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 3: Pennsylvania refuse to debate a Democrat, the governor of Arizona

614
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:43,320
Speaker 3: refuse to debate a Democrat. It's a very dangerous precedent.

615
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 3: I think the Democrats will conclude that if Biden ducks

616
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,240
Speaker 3: the debate, the American people will assume he's too feeble

617
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 3: and mentally diminished to be able to debate. And so

618
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 3: I think that will scare them enough that they will

619
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,800
Speaker 3: end up producing Biden for a couple of debates, pumped

620
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 3: full of drugs for a little while.

621
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,359
Speaker 2: It's gonna be interesting to see how this plays out.

622
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 2: We'll keep covering it. Don't forget. We do this show Monday, Wednesday,
