1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: What does it take for the Biden administration to come 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: out and actually say you shouldn't be doing that. I'm 3 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 1: referencing now actual tanks rolling into Chinese streets as it 4 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: is a chilling echo of the Tenement Square massacre. GEE 5 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,920 Speaker 1: is cracking down on what are now being referred to 6 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: as the White Paper protests. Tanks have now rolled out 7 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: onto all the streets where these protests were happening, clamping 8 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: down telling people to go home. There is an appearance 9 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 1: that many of the cities now are in total lockdown. 10 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:41,240 Speaker 1: This after video has surface of actual apartment buildings having 11 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: their doors to the outside world being wielded shut because 12 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 1: of COVID. Lockdowns have now lasted for three years. Troops 13 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: are now on the streets as demonstrators had come out 14 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: suppressing those demonstrations, prompting many to say this is no 15 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: different than when the troops were used to brutally suppress 16 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: demonstrations etinam And Square that famous picture of a man 17 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 1: standing in front of a tank refusing to move. Now 18 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: the tanks are rolling through multiple cities and police have 19 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: been put in full force and several cities including Shanghai, 20 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: which is something that usually doesn't happen now. The protests 21 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: of tank Man became an iconic symbol of resistance in China. 22 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: There were multiple tanks coming down the street, and there 23 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: was a man that stood in front of one of 24 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: those tanks so bravely. Footage of that picture became iconic 25 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: and has inspired people for generations. China understands that, so now, 26 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: what are we seeing? Footage of tanks has been shared 27 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: over several days of historic protests in China in which 28 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: demonstrators have waived blank sheets of white paper in the 29 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: symbolic protest against censorship. Hundreds of taking the streets in 30 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: multiple cities, including now Shanghai and Beijing. Normally you don't 31 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: see protests in those cities. Why are they protesting? They're 32 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: protesting after the deaths of ten people in an apartment 33 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 1: fire that was blamed on Jee's draconian zero COVID lockdowns, 34 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: China's vast security apparatus now has swung into full action 35 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 1: to flood the streets of police and identify those who 36 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: have taken part in the demonstrations, using the government's power 37 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: of artificial intelligence and everything that they do to actually 38 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: spy on the people in China. A column of tanks 39 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: was even spotted in another city, leading fears they could 40 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: be heading to put down protests in other parts of 41 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: the nation that are not heavily guarded by tanks in general. 42 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: Popular USA oppression blogger Feng Shi Mien, who shared the video, asked, 43 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: are they going to Shanghai? The city has seen the 44 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: large protests following a deadly blaze at that apartment block. 45 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: The fire broke out on the fifteenth floor and rapidly 46 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: spread to the higher floors in the city's main building. There. 47 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: Furious residents blamed the deaths on the COVID lockdowns, as 48 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: they said they were only allowed to leave home for 49 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: short periods each day and the timing was strictly controlled 50 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: by the local authorities. The protests have seen individual acts 51 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: of heroism, including one woman who stood still as police 52 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: surrounded her, then stole her phone before beating her in public. 53 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: She has been dubbed the new Tank Lady in honor 54 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: of the unknown tank man who blocked the path of 55 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: Chinese troops following the nineteen eighty nine massacre, and the 56 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: Chinese authorities have begun inquiries into some of the people 57 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: who gathered at weekend protests as police are now rounding 58 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: them up and they become the new disappeared ones. So 59 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: what is the Biden administration saying in response to this? 60 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: Are they standing with these brave individuals, these brave souls? 61 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: Of course not why. I think it's pretty clear China 62 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: has compromising information on the President of the United States 63 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: of America, Joe Biden, because of the business deals and 64 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: the tens of millions and hundreds of millions of dollars 65 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: in loans that were given to the Biden crime family. 66 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: John Kirby, I'm going to play for you what he 67 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: had to say when he was asked about China detaining 68 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: these protesters and rounding them up. But before I get 69 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: to that, I want to tell you about an awesome 70 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: gift that you can give for Christmas to anybody on 71 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 1: your list as an outdoorsman.

Now. 88 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: John Kirby is a guy that should stand up for 89 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: people around the world that are standing up to these 90 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: types of horrible atross that these taking place against human 91 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: beings that shouldn't be controversial. John Kirby is a guy 92 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: that is a smart guy who understands that this is 93 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: one of those moments where his words may actually matter. 94 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 1: So instead of actually standing up for these protesters. This 95 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: is what the official line of the United States government 96 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: is from the Pentagon, from the Biden administration about what's 97 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: happening in China, the US's assessment that these protests we've 98 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: seen are widespread or are they perhaps more isolated incidents 99 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: that are being amplified by social media. I don't think 100 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:47,919 Speaker 1: that we know a whole lot more about the geographic location, size, 101 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: scale and scope of them than what you're learning as 102 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: well through social media and through traditional media. It's not 103 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: like we have, I think, a finer sense of insight 104 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: and then what's already out there in the public sphere. 105 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: So I don't have a sense of that in that realm. 106 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: The statement you issued or there was issued earlier today 107 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: didn't include any explicit calls for China to stuff detaining, 108 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: en harming protesters and journalists. We're watching this closely, as 109 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: you might expect we would, and again we continue to 110 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: stand up and support the right of peaceful protests. And 111 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: I think we're going to watch this closely and we'll 112 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: see where things go. And we'll see where things go. 113 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: That's all you've got to say. You're not going to 114 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: stand up for these people that are standing up for themselves. 115 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: Democratic Center. Warner is actually defending now the Biden administration 116 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: silence on Chinese protests. Why because they're too afraid of 117 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: a quote conflict. So now we don't say things to 118 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: protect human beings around the world because we're afraid of 119 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: a conflict. Let me ask you about this, because I 120 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: understand the administration's reticence on not speaking out too openly 121 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: in front of in favor of the protests, because they 122 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: don't want China to do what it already does, which 123 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: is to say, oh, this is a foreign plot and 124 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: you know, instigators from outside the country are causing all this, 125 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: when this is very clearly a grassroots set of protests there. 126 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: Do you, though, believe there is something, particularly as China 127 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: is now cracking down on those protesters, something more that 128 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: the US could or should do to support the Chinese 129 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: people when they express themselves this way. Well, I think 130 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: there are things that those of US leaders in the 131 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: Senate and the House have a little more flexibility, frankly 132 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: than the administration. You know this. The administration, particularly after 133 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: the most recent meeting between she and Biden, try to 134 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: have lower some of the tensions. This is a we 135 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: don't want an active conflict to erupt. I think those 136 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: of us in the Congress have a little more freedom, 137 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 1: and I think we can push the administration, but as 138 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: you said, we don't want to feed the propaganda machine 139 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: rate that turns these protests driven by Chinese people into 140 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: what the overall message would be to the Chinese people. 141 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: And remember that's why I talk about the technology. The TikTok, 142 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: for example, that the Chinese people receive is very different 143 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: from the TikTok that we receive. As one case, these 144 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: that are completely owed their allegiance buying laws of the 145 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: Communist Party, not their shareholders. So if they are able 146 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: to portray this as kind of an anti Chinese or 147 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: Western plot that undermines the protesters that we're trying to 148 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: stand with, I love that rhetoric here the BS and 149 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: this is total BS from from Center War. Basically he's saying, 150 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: we're too afraid to stand up for these people. You 151 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: may ask yourself this question, where's the NBA right now? Right? 152 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 1: Why aren't they standing up? In fact, why isn't anyone 153 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: standing up and saying, hey, what's happening in China? We 154 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: stand with the people of China right because China is 155 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: not going to tolerate these protests. They have a serious 156 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: history of cracking down. Now, there are two obvious answers 157 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: to that question. One you're compromised by the Chinese, which 158 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: I think is very clear that is literally the Democratic 159 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: Party now certainly the Biden administration. Or two you just 160 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: don't care about what they do these people because you 161 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: care more about profits and money aka Apple, Nike. The 162 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: NBA Tugger Carlson had something very interesting to say about that, 163 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: specifically with the NBA. Right the same people that have 164 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: the you know, Black Lives Matter on the end of 165 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: each of the courts and went all in for social justice, 166 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 1: just not in China.

Now, take a listen 196 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: to what Tucker said on his show. It's hard to 197 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: believe that's real. It is real, and the US Congress 198 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: has by and large adopted the same posture. Eric Squawell 199 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: spends a lot of his life yelping about human rights 200 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: on Twitter, abortion as human rights, and then he said 201 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: nothing about what's happening tonight in China. We were not 202 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: able to reach his former girlfriend, the Chinese spy Fang 203 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 1: Fang for comment either, unfortunately, nor did we hear a 204 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: word from the NBA commission that would be Adam Silver. Now, 205 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 1: Adam Silver also spends a lot of time yelping about 206 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: what an authoritarian country this is and threatening the people 207 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: who live here with punishment. He has no problem threatening 208 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: American voters in North Carolina, for example, or in Texas 209 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: who wanted separate bathrooms for little girls. What does he 210 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: think of killing people for wanting to leave their apartment 211 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: or throwing people on moss into concentration camps. Well, we 212 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: decided to find so we emailed this office today to 213 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 1: get his view of Chinese concentration camps. What does Adam 214 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: Silver think of that one of our premier moral voices. 215 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: We didn't get a reply. Why is that? Maybe because 216 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: he has made millions personally in the NBA itself makes 217 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: billions of dollars in China. So the NBA has no 218 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: word to say about China throwing its population into concentration camps, 219 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: turning Shanghai into a prison. And in fact, when you 220 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: ask NBA coaches about civil rights abuses in China, what 221 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: you get is a lecture about how we're worse. Watch 222 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: it has not come up in terms of people asking 223 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: me about it, people discussing it. No, nor has our 224 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: record of human rights abuses come up either. People in 225 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: China didn't ask me about, you know, people owning a 226 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: or fifteens and mowing each other down in a mall. 227 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: I wasn't asked that question. The world is a complex 228 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: and there's more gray than black and light. Oh so 229 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: China commits genocide against Muslims and locks down a city 230 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,319 Speaker 1: of twenty five million people, But we've got the Second 231 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: Amendment and they're pretty much the same. That's the word 232 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: from Steve Kerr. It's a very famous coach. These people 233 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: are all on the take from China. The NBA is 234 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: literally on the take from China, and therefore they will 235 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: not say a single negative word about their masters. This 236 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: is not an American league. These are not people who 237 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: are boiled to the United States. They despise the United States, 238 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: are on the payroll of China. That's true. How is 239 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: it not true? So they can't even criticize children burning 240 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: alive in a high rise apartment building because the doors 241 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: have been nailed shut because of COVID, which doesn't actually 242 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: pose a threat to anybody. So the NBA has taken 243 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: a pass. Eric Swalwell and his Chinese by girlfriend are 244 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: taking a pass. The White House is taking past State Department, 245 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: MSNBC taking a pass. So, in other words, if you're 246 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: on the take, you just make crap up, right, just 247 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: like that famous basketball coach for Golden State, just saying, well, 248 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: they didn't ask me about are fifteen's mowing down people 249 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: and our human rights abuses in America. So everybody calmed down. 250 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: It's China. They give us a lot of money and 251 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: they make me and Lebron James and all the others 252 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: really rich. I want to go back to see an 253 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: end for a second here on this and again next time. 254 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: That's see an in virtue signals on a plethora of 255 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: issues in the US. Right, They just did this recently 256 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: on immigration. We you know, we deserve to not have 257 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 1: these people waiting in limbo and not sure what they're 258 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: gonna do. After they break our laws. Well, when you 259 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: break laws and you break into a country, I'm not 260 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: really worried about owing you that much. When it comes 261 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: to your nervousness of me kicking you out or not, 262 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: I think that should be something we should all agree on. Like, 263 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: if you don't want that nervousness, then do your favor. Okay, 264 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: if you don't want that nervousness that concerned, then again, 265 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: do us all a favor. Don't break into this country. 266 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: And so when they virtue signal on something like that, 267 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: just remind them of their same exact moments that they 268 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: have on TV when they're talking about actual human beings 269 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: in China. Jim Shudo, Look, hey, trying to may tolerate 270 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: the protest now, but they have a history of cracking down. Well, 271 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: thank you for clarifying that for us. True. Here's the thing, 272 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: you know, Thorist Terran states they don't admit mistakes right, 273 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: and China's ZEO COVID policy as a failure. They're three 274 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: years into this pandemic, they have a vaccine that largely 275 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: doesn't work. They refuse for nationalistic reasons to bring in 276 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: foreign vaccines. mRNA vaccines that have had greater success. They 277 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: don't have a healthcare system that could sustain a big 278 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: increase in illnesses among an aging population. So they're between 279 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: a rock and a hard place. They can tweak, but 280 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: they can't really reverse without admitting failure and giving up 281 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: some control and opening up. And this is just not 282 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: a government that does that. It's also not a government 283 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: that will not tolerate sustained descent. They may tolerate this 284 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: what you're seeing now for some time if it gets bigger, 285 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: if it becomes a genuine threat to well, not threat 286 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: or challenge to the government, right or the police forces. 287 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 1: They've got a history of cracking down. Ivan's in Hong Kong. 288 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 1: Hong Kong had you months and months of protests until 289 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 1: China said enough and they cracked down enough, cracked down, right. 290 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: So he's warning you about the Chinese here, while also 291 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: saying but it completely makes sense for the White House 292 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 1: to say nothing at all. British Prime Minister declares the 293 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: golden era between the UK and China over right, this 294 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: is I guess what good the leadership sounds like. You 295 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 1: should be pretty simple. The America should be saying the 296 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,439 Speaker 1: same thing. Listen to what the Prime minister said moments ago. Now, 297 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: let's be clear, the so called Golden era is over, 298 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 1: along with a naive idea that trade would automatically lead 299 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: to social and political reform. But nor should we rely 300 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: on simplistic cold war rhetoric. We recognize China poses a 301 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: systemic challenge to our values and interests, a challenge that 302 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: grows more acute as it moves towards even greater authoritarianism. 303 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: Instead of listening to their people's protests, the Chinese government 304 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: has chosen to crack down further, including by assaulting a 305 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: BBC journalist. Wouldn't it be nice if the leaders in 306 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 1: the United States of America made the same type of 307 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: comments that were just made by the new British Prime Minister, 308 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: where he just made it clear of who China is, 309 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: our stance on who they are, being honest, intellectually honest 310 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: about who they are. Meanwhile, we've got a State department 311 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: that refuses to make any type of blunt statement that says, hey, look, 312 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: we know they're screwing up, we know that they're bad people, 313 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: we know that they don't value human beings. Wouldn't it 314 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 1: be nice if we heard that? Wouldn't it be nice. 315 00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: If we heard something as basic as that, wouldn't that 316 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 1: be truly incredible. We're not getting that in this country. 317 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: No, no no, no. Instead, what we are getting is something 318 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: very different. Instead, what we are getting is something that 319 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: basically is the opposite of that. And the opposite of 320 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: that is we don't want to take a stance against China. 321 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:25,400 Speaker 1: There's too much money involved. It's just too much cash, folks. 322 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: We can't have this conversation too much money. You gotta understand, 323 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 1: when there's this much money to be made, we don't 324 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: want to rock that boat. We'll take China's dollars or 325 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: when it comes to our actual foreign policy. The reason 326 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 1: why the Prime Minister of the UK can actually come 327 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: out the way that he just did declaring the golden 328 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: air between the UK and China is over is because 329 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 1: maybe he's not compromised by the Chinese. That could be 330 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: part of it as well. When you are compromised the 331 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: way that this administration is compromised because of their personal 332 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: financial dealings with China, and I'm referring directly the Biden 333 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: crime family, it's very hard for you to stand up 334 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: for others in China when they own you. China is 335 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: not stupid. They knew what they were doing when they 336 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: got into business with Hunter and James and the President 337 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 1: of the United States of America, and it wasn't about 338 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: massive profits for them. It was about control over American policy. 339 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: How much is it worth to have America be silent 340 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 1: right now, whether they're cracking down on their own citizens, 341 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: Unlike in the UK, where you can just say the truth, 342 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: how much is that worth? Hundred million, two hundred million. Well, 343 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: if you're Chinese and you're the Chinese government, having America 344 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 1: be silent when America should not be silent, that may 345 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: be worth in your mind a billion or two billion dollars, 346 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: because when America leads, usually the rest of the world 347 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: will follow, and when America doesn't lead, the rest of 348 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: the world usually does not follow. I love the UK, 349 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: but the truth is the Prime Minister in the UK 350 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: A is not going to lead some big grand coalition 351 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: against China and probably be successful. If America did it 352 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: with the UK, there's a much better chance that could happen. 353 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: All right, real quick, I want to tell you about 354 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: my good friends over at Legacy Precious Metals.

Governor de Santis, by the way, 380 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 1: wasting no time being a leader on this issue with China. 381 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: He has come out. He was doing an event about 382 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: infrastructure improvements in Duval County in Florida. He understood that 383 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: this is the moment to call out China because the 384 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: world's watching, and if you truly are going to be 385 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: a leader, you need to be a leader win. They're 386 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: people that are being attacked like they are in China 387 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: right now, and I want you to hear what he 388 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: had to say about not just China in general, but 389 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: the justifiable fighting of the people in China have been 390 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: locked down, with doors nailed shut, doors welded shut because 391 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: of the draconian, psychotic nature the Chinese regime refusing to 392 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: allow outside, for example, vaccines to come in, and their 393 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: vaccine is basically ineffective, so when somebody gets COVID, they 394 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 1: shut down the entire community. Still three years later, listen, 395 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: I just want to make a comment about what we've 396 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 1: been seeing going on in China. This zero COVID policy 397 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: is draconian, It violates people's liberties, and it is completely unscientific. 398 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: And the people of China are to be able to 399 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: speak out and protest against what the Chinese Communist Party 400 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: is doing. This CCP has a maniacal desire to exert 401 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: total control over its population. Zero COVID is really just 402 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: the pretexts for them to do what they want to 403 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: do anyways, and that is not a model that can 404 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: work over the long term. The people in China are 405 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: finally speaking out against it, and I just think we 406 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 1: need these draconian COVID policies to go to the asheap 407 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: of history where they belong. He wasn't done there, by 408 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: the way. He's also called out Apple for working in 409 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: China while also threatening to remove Twitter app. Listen to this, 410 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 1: and then as you've seen that go on in China, 411 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: you know, there's reports that Apple is not allowing the 412 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: protesters to use this air drop function where they're trying 413 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: to communicate that obvious is providing aid and comfort to 414 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: the CCP, And so you see that report and that's 415 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: very concerning. And then when you also hear reports that 416 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: Apple is threatening to remove Twitter from the app store, 417 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:19,439 Speaker 1: because Elon Musk is actually opening it up for free 418 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 1: speech and is restoring a lot of accounts that were 419 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: unfairly and illegitimately suspended for putting out accurate information about COVID. 420 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: That's like one of the main things that being reinstated. 421 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: So many things these experts were wrong at and you 422 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: had people on Twitter that we're calling that out and 423 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: Twitter the old regime, and Twitter their response was to 424 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: try to just suffocate the dissent. And Elon Musk knows 425 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: that's not a winning formula, and so he's providing free speech. 426 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: And so if Apple responds to that by nuking them 427 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: from the app store, you know, I think that that 428 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: would be a huge, huge mistake, and it would be 429 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,919 Speaker 1: a really raw exercise of monopolistic power that I think 430 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: would merit a response from the United States Congress. And 431 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: so don't be a vassal of the CCP on one 432 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: hand and then use your corporate power in the United 433 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: States on the other to suffocate Americans and try to 434 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 1: suppress their right to express themselves. And so I'm glad. 435 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: I'm glad things are changing at Twitter, and I know 436 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 1: there's a lot of work to do with big tech generally. 437 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: But this is big progress and we're really happy that 438 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: that is now happening. You know, Governor of Santis, slamming 439 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: Apple for aiding China during these protests, picking aside while 440 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: threatening to remove Twitter in America is exactly what the 441 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: White House should also be saying. But they're not center tech, Cruz, 442 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: and we're going to talk about this more on his 443 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: podcasts A Verdict with Ta Crew as a co host tomorrow. 444 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: He had this to say a moment ago about the 445 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: White House's statement on China's zero COVID policy, which which 446 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: has caused unrest and uprisings to break out across the 447 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: country as citizens are fighting back. Americans looking for the 448 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: Biden administration issue a strong rebuke of the CCP's inhumane 449 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 1: treatment of its citizens and some reassurance that these tyrannical 450 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 1: policies wouldn't start rearing their ugly heads here in the 451 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: US while they were disappointed. In a statement, Ted Cruz 452 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: called it not only tone death but pitiful, quoted a 453 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 1: potential historic inflection point. DEM's shill for the CCP pure 454 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 1: weakness from the Biden administrations. Biden administration, it's almost as 455 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 1: if Biden wishes he was driving a tank and tim 456 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: and square. That is what Centator Trick Ted Cruz had 457 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: to say about this a moment ago. Now, I want 458 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: to also get you update on something else that I 459 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: mentioned on this podcast yesterday. Democrats, it's just been announced, 460 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: have succumbed to the political reality on this same sex 461 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: marriage bill in the Senate they were trying to get 462 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: done in this lame duck session. The Senate's respect quote 463 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: for Marriage Jack has Progressive arguing that efforts to safeguards 464 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: same sex marriage remain unfinished after concessions were made to 465 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 1: Republicans demands for bolstering religious liberty protections. Now, the bill 466 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: is that currently stands would officially repeal the Defensive Marriage 467 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: Act and require state recognition of legal same sex and 468 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: interracial marriages, but would not codify the Supreme Courts twenty 469 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: fifteen ruling that legalized same sex unions Nation one and 470 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 1: prevent the High Court from eventually overturning the landmark decision. 471 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: It would be great if the bill went further, but 472 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: we don't have the vote for the bill to go further, 473 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: is what Senator Brian Schats, a Democrat from Hawaii, said, 474 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: moments ago, he was speaking during a Senate Appropriation Subcommittee 475 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: on Commerce, Commerce, Justice, and Science and Related Agencies hearing 476 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: on Capitol Hill. He said at the time, I think 477 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: it's an enormously important first step, and I don't think 478 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: there are any guarantees that the Supreme Court will not 479 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:27,959 Speaker 1: overturn the precedent they set recently. It is important to 480 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: protect the rights of same sex couples across the country, 481 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 1: is what they claimed. Now this bill actually doesn't have 482 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: that much to do with the same sex marriages. She 483 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: would actually could be used to attack conservative Christian and 484 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: religious organizations, which is part of the reason why there 485 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 1: was an amendment put in there to make sure by 486 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: Mike Lee. We talked about this on this show, we 487 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: talked about on Vertic with Ted Cruz as well, and 488 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: it was an important peace an amendment that was put 489 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: in there to protect re aigious institutions. Now what we're seeing, 490 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: the Senator Mike Lee was able to force the Upper 491 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: Chamber to delay a procedural vote on the bill this 492 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,479 Speaker 1: month until ten PM after he was unable to win 493 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: necessary support for his amendment to further strengthen the religious 494 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: liberty provisions.
