Speaker 1: Do they care about you? And if they don't, why
Speaker 1: don't they care about you? We're gonna talk about inflation.
Speaker 1: We're gonna update you on Kyle Rittenhouse. We have a
Speaker 1: great show tonight, and I'm right, do our people who
Speaker 1: lead us do they care about us? It's a simple question,
Speaker 1: and it almost sounds juvenile to ask the question, right,
Speaker 1: but do they actually care when they look at bad
Speaker 1: numbers here, poverty there, drug? You said that, whatever the
Speaker 1: case may be, do they look and do they feel
Speaker 1: anything inside? Or are they so completely consumed with themselves
Speaker 1: and a hatred of the country they don't care at all.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think, I think we all know the
Speaker 1: answer to that question. It's an uncomfortable answer. It forces
Speaker 1: us to confront some realities we don't want to confront.
Speaker 1: But they don't care. That's the truth. And remember we've
Speaker 1: talked about it a million times on the show. We're
Speaker 1: gonna go into inflation tonight. We're gonna update on Kyle
Speaker 1: Rittenhouse and everything. But we've talked about this a million times.
Speaker 1: We're gonna keep talking about it until everybody understands the
Speaker 1: leaders of your cultural institutions, your cultural pillars. Remember, every
Speaker 1: culture has pillars do you do government, religion, the business world.
Speaker 1: Just you have different pillars that hold up your culture,
Speaker 1: hold up your country. The leaders of virtually all of
Speaker 1: our pillars, now, they all share the same three characteristics,
Speaker 1: virtually all of them. This goes for CEOs, it goes
Speaker 1: for politicians, every Democrat, more than half the Republicans. It
Speaker 1: goes for professional athletes, actors, it goes for professors, it
Speaker 1: goes for every part the system. These people all share this.
Speaker 1: Half the pastors share this same three characteristics. One no
Speaker 1: love of country. None Oftentimes there's a flat out hatred
Speaker 1: for the country. But there's no love of it. And
Speaker 1: you're about to see an example of this coming soon.
Speaker 1: They just I don't know whether I should make excuses
Speaker 1: for them because of the education system. Maybe they had
Speaker 1: bad parents. I don't know. But it's hard to accept
Speaker 1: the President of the United States of America, the Energy secretary,
Speaker 1: the Transportation secretary. It's hard to accept the people in
Speaker 1: these huge positions. They never ever, ever, ever ever walk
Speaker 1: into work and think to themselves, honestly, what can I
Speaker 1: do that's best for America today? The thought doesn't enter
Speaker 1: their mind. They worry about poll numbers. Here or this
Speaker 1: constituent group there, or have we punished our enemies here?
Speaker 1: But what's best for America is simply not the thought
Speaker 1: that cross as any of their minds. That's one. Two.
Speaker 1: No connection to the real world. We'll get to that
Speaker 1: a lot today. No connection at all. These are people
Speaker 1: in general, not then blame me. I don't have any
Speaker 1: problem with people growing up wealthy. Good for you, But
Speaker 1: these are people in general who grew up fairly well off.
Speaker 1: They went right from school to some communist university summer,
Speaker 1: usually one of the fancy ones, Harvard and whatnot. There
Speaker 1: they got the finishing touches on, well, why America sucks?
Speaker 1: And yes, America sucks, but why you, mister soon to
Speaker 1: be Harvard grad, you should rule over it like a king,
Speaker 1: which leads us to number three. The third thing they
Speaker 1: all have in common, a genuine, heartfelt, deep down to
Speaker 1: the core, belief that they should rule over you as
Speaker 1: a king. Does. These people do not view themselves as
Speaker 1: your representative, as serving the people. They view themselves as
Speaker 1: being above you. You're one of the peasants, You're just
Speaker 1: one of the plebs. And honestly, they kind of kind
Speaker 1: of disday in this whole representative government thing. Let's just
Speaker 1: do away with that. Let's go back to so I
Speaker 1: can have my own feudal kingdom. That's how they view
Speaker 1: the world. I mean, the Energy secretary was asked a
Speaker 1: question about you having your backbroken at the pump, and
Speaker 1: I just want to remind everyone of the three things again,
Speaker 1: no love of country, no connection to the real world,
Speaker 1: and a belief they should rule over you. Watch your
Speaker 1: Energy secretary when she was asked about gas prices. You
Speaker 1: can no longer afford in Sturgius, Michigan. It is two
Speaker 1: dollars eighty nine cents a gallon. I guess that's better
Speaker 1: than in California. What is the grand home plan to
Speaker 1: increase oil production in America? Oh, that is hilarious. That's hilarious.
Speaker 1: When you're sitting there filling up your car and you're
Speaker 1: trying to do the math. I know I've been there
Speaker 1: before you're trying to do the math. You see, I've
Speaker 1: been there where you don't go up and put the
Speaker 1: gas nozzle in and you just depress it and then
Speaker 1: you go inside and grab a pack of gum. I've
Speaker 1: been there where you think to yourself, home and I
Speaker 1: can put in ten or twenty bucks today. I don't
Speaker 1: get paid to it tomorrow. Americans are making those decisions
Speaker 1: across the country right now. The Energy Secretary, when asked
Speaker 1: a very pointed question about it, throws her head back
Speaker 1: in laughter. Because she doesn't have any love of country.
Speaker 1: It never crosses her mind, the Energy Secretary, how to
Speaker 1: lower your gas prices, because she doesn't have any connection
Speaker 1: to the real world. She doesn't worry about how much
Speaker 1: gas she can put in her tesla or whatever she drives.
Speaker 1: And because she believes she's in charge. And you're one
Speaker 1: of the peasants. And of course the peasants don't get
Speaker 1: to eat as well as the king. They all share
Speaker 1: the same three characteristics. And I don't know what you
Speaker 1: want me to say. We have new inflation numbers out
Speaker 1: expectations for the coming years. Say it's going to be
Speaker 1: five point seven percent. That's according to the monthly survey
Speaker 1: of consumer expectations from the Federal Reserve, five point seven percent.
Speaker 1: And when we think about what that means, I know
Speaker 1: you already know. But when we think about what that
Speaker 1: means for normal people, that's the boss calling you into
Speaker 1: his office and saying, hey, we're giving you a five
Speaker 1: percent pay cut. That's what that means, every dollar you
Speaker 1: have is worth five percent less more than five percent less.
Speaker 1: Maybe you're okay with that, or maybe you'll be okay.
Speaker 1: I hope you are, But how many millions, tens of
Speaker 1: millions of Americans out there are not going to be okay?
Speaker 1: I know for large portions of my life. You can't
Speaker 1: give me a five percent reduction, or I'm not eating
Speaker 1: the power bill, an't getting paid or something that's a
Speaker 1: big deal. And this is part of why I hate
Speaker 1: these people so much, why I really truly think many
Speaker 1: of them are just flat out evil, not wrong evil.
Speaker 1: How they're now going to lie to you about what
Speaker 1: you see. You see the average American, and he's already
Speaker 1: getting hit in the face with it. You try to
Speaker 1: buy beef, you try to buy coffee, eggs, gas, whatever.
Speaker 1: The things in your life are getting more and more expensive.
Speaker 1: People are feeling it. So the system is going to
Speaker 1: do a couple of things to you. They're going to
Speaker 1: lie to you endlessly about why you're feeling it, and
Speaker 1: they're going to tell you stop complaining. It's actually a
Speaker 1: good thing. Look at this jaw dropper of a headline
Speaker 1: from MSNBC. Why the inflation we're seeing now is a
Speaker 1: good thing. Yeah, it's a very good thing. You see,
Speaker 1: you got a five percent reduction, and pay stop whining peasants.
Speaker 1: Understand that it's a good thing. Your betters will explain
Speaker 1: why to you. Unreal, unreal, the hutspu of these people.
Speaker 1: And we don't have serious people in charge. I mean,
Speaker 1: remember Pete buck Gig, he's the Transportation secretary. And let's
Speaker 1: just clarify how he got there again, real quickly. He
Speaker 1: was a mayor and not a very good one in Indiana.
Speaker 1: Then he ran for president and buck Gig I have
Speaker 1: warned people about this for years and you'll see it
Speaker 1: in the coming years. You probably see it now. Buck Gig,
Speaker 1: I warned was probably the most dangerous candidate in the
Speaker 1: presidential field, because I see an anger inside of this guy.
Speaker 1: He really wants to take it out on somebody. And
Speaker 1: voters sensed it too, so they kicked him out of office.
Speaker 1: They didn't get the presidency, but remember he was part
Speaker 1: of that group that all just kind of miraculously withdrew
Speaker 1: from the race at once. And wow, Joe Biden's now ahead,
Speaker 1: and oh look at that. He ends up being Transportation Secretary,
Speaker 1: as if all that wasn't arranged. But he's now Transportation secretary.
Speaker 1: So he goes from Faale mayor in Indiana to Transportation secretary.
Speaker 1: And this is the serious, this level of the people
Speaker 1: who run this country. Can you give us the construct
Speaker 1: of how you will deconstruct the racism that was built
Speaker 1: into the roadway. I'm still surprised that some people were
Speaker 1: surprised when I pointed to the fact that if a
Speaker 1: highway was built for the purpose of dividing a white
Speaker 1: in a black neighborhood, or if an underpass was constructed
Speaker 1: such that a bus carrying mostly black and Puerto Rican
Speaker 1: kids to a beach or it would have been in
Speaker 1: New York was designed too low for it to pass by,
Speaker 1: that that obviously reflects racism that went into those design choices.
Speaker 1: I don't think we have anything to lose by confronting
Speaker 1: that simple reality, and I think we have everything to
Speaker 1: gain by acknowledging it and than dealing with we are
Speaker 1: in some trouble and look, hey, mister Transportation secretary. Not
Speaker 1: that I want to not that I want to distract
Speaker 1: anybody from the racism of an underpass, but we have
Speaker 1: five hundred thousand ships parked off the coast of California.
Speaker 1: They can't get here, and we now have truckers out
Speaker 1: there saying we're facing a possible thirty seven percent reduction
Speaker 1: in the workforce because of the vaccine mandate. And I
Speaker 1: want you, the viewer right now, to a little experiment
Speaker 1: with me here. Wherever you're sitting, wherever you're watching the
Speaker 1: first whether it be in your living room on your TV,
Speaker 1: maybe you're on your phone somewhere, it doesn't matter. It
Speaker 1: doesn't matter wherever you are, whatever you're doing. I want
Speaker 1: you to do me a favor and look around your
Speaker 1: room right now. And as you're looking around at the
Speaker 1: various things, look at the things in your area, I
Speaker 1: want you to think about how many of those things,
Speaker 1: at one point point or another, we're on the back
Speaker 1: of a truck. All of them. Everything around you has
Speaker 1: been on a truck at one point or another. We
Speaker 1: are an economy right now facing an inflation crisis, as
Speaker 1: we just said, facing a supply chain crisis. We have
Speaker 1: an overrun border. We have many, many problems, and we're
Speaker 1: about to add to that laying off one third of
Speaker 1: the nation's truckers who make things go to and fro Oh.
Speaker 1: That is really, really, really not good. And again, the
Speaker 1: people we have in charge, they don't care. They don't
Speaker 1: know what they're doing, and they don't care that they
Speaker 1: don't know what they're doing. It's just full speed ahead
Speaker 1: with this cultural Marxist filth. Here's Karen John Pierre asked
Speaker 1: about gas prices. What options besides tapping the Strategic Controlling
Speaker 1: Reserve does the president have conteract higher gas prices? So, um,
Speaker 1: you know, we've I've talked about this a couple of times,
Speaker 1: you know, we we have we don't have an announcement
Speaker 1: yet on anything anything to share it at this time. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, but we're monitoring it, right, We're monitoring the
Speaker 1: prices and we're making sure that we have tools in
Speaker 1: our tool belt that we can we can we can
Speaker 1: try and and and use. But at this at this time,
Speaker 1: I don't have anything new to share. Sure you review it.
Speaker 1: So because the Secretary you grown home have confer about
Speaker 1: an option that's on the table, and the President has
Speaker 1: said there are other tools that he can potentially use,
Speaker 1: So could you just lay out what those other options
Speaker 1: are on that he's considering. So I don't. Again, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't have anything specific here. You're monitoring it. No,
Speaker 1: I want you to miss the producer. I'm gonna want
Speaker 1: you to play that whole thing again. Do you know
Speaker 1: what this reminds me of? This reminds me of me
Speaker 1: in high school when the teacher comes up and there's
Speaker 1: this huge mall tie part homework assignment that's due over
Speaker 1: in a period of weeks and I haven't turned any
Speaker 1: of it in and she comes out to me and
Speaker 1: she says, Jesse, are you going to turn in any
Speaker 1: of the homework assignment? And this is how I responded,
Speaker 1: What options besides tapping the Strategic Control Room reserve? Does
Speaker 1: the president have to counteract higher gas prices? So? Um,
Speaker 1: you know, we've I've talked about this a couple of times,
Speaker 1: you know, we we have We don't have an announcement
Speaker 1: yet on anything on anything to share at this time. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, but we're monitoring it, right, We're monitoring the prices,
Speaker 1: and we're making sure that we have tools in our
Speaker 1: tool belt that we can we can we can try
Speaker 1: and and use. But at this at this time, I
Speaker 1: don't have anything new to share. What you review it.
Speaker 1: So because Secretary going will have confer about an option
Speaker 1: that's on the table, and the President has said there
Speaker 1: are other tools that he can potentially use, So could
Speaker 1: you just lay out what those other options are on
Speaker 1: that he's considering. I don't, again, I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: have anything specific here what I don't look, I don't
Speaker 1: have anything really specific per se. We're monitoring, We're doing
Speaker 1: a lot of monitoring, and we look, there are a
Speaker 1: lot of tools. There's there's a tool belt out. There
Speaker 1: are lots of tools in the tool belts. These people
Speaker 1: have no idea, they have no plan. They don't even
Speaker 1: want to plan. What's their plan for reducing all prices?
Speaker 1: They're planning to shut down another pipeline in Michigan. Karen
Speaker 1: Jehan Pierre was asked about that too by Peter Doocey.
Speaker 1: Why is the administration now considering shutting down the Line
Speaker 1: five pipeline from Canada to Michigan. It is inaccurate what
Speaker 1: you just stated. But but the reporting, the reporting about
Speaker 1: us wanting to shut down the Line five is it
Speaker 1: being studied right now? Is the administration studying the impact
Speaker 1: I'm shutting down the Line five? Yes? We are, we are.
Speaker 1: That's inaccurate. Well, I thought you were saying that we
Speaker 1: were going to shut it down, but that is not inaccurate. Okay, great, great,
Speaker 1: great great. And so they're gonna cover for Joe, and
Speaker 1: they're gonna lie, and they're gonna stumble their way through
Speaker 1: this whole thing. And I mean, I shouldn't be laughing
Speaker 1: because the truth is real. People suffer, and they're going
Speaker 1: to protect Joe. As this continues to get worse, he
Speaker 1: sat down with a local Cincinnati station and started getting
Speaker 1: asked some tough questions. Who boy did they step in?
Speaker 1: Then the latest polling from USA Today has your approval
Speaker 1: rating at thirty eight percent. A new CNN poll shows
Speaker 1: fifty eight percent of Americans believe that you aren't paying
Speaker 1: enough attention to the nation's most important issues. So I'm wondering,
Speaker 1: when you combine that with the election results that we
Speaker 1: saw last week, is this giving you kind of a
Speaker 1: sign that maybe you need to recalibrate some of your
Speaker 1: administration's priorities as you approached that one year marketing office.
Speaker 1: The point is I didn't run because of the polls.
Speaker 1: We're in a situation where there's a lot of a
Speaker 1: lot of anxiety. Gas prices are up exceedingly high. They've
Speaker 1: not up this high before, but not recently, gas Preyer.
Speaker 1: That's why I have the Attorney General taking a look
Speaker 1: at whether or not these gas companies are gouging people.
Speaker 1: Because although the price of oil is coming down some,
Speaker 1: the price of gas hadn't come down some. So there's
Speaker 1: a lot of things that have people that are really
Speaker 1: a great deal of anxiety, a great deal of concern,
Speaker 1: and they all relate to Even though we've created almost
Speaker 1: six million jobs since I came into office, we're in
Speaker 1: a situation where people don't I mean, they don't feel
Speaker 1: it right now, they don't feel it. President Biden being
Speaker 1: told that as the last question we have time to
Speaker 1: ask you today. Yeah, we're doing well. All that may
Speaker 1: have made you uncomfortable, but I'm right. We have COVID
Speaker 1: mandate madness here are coming up. But first said all
Speaker 1: that lucky stuff aside. You know, flipping houses is a
Speaker 1: lot of fun. I mean, look, everyone watches the shows
Speaker 1: on TV. My wife watches them all the time. About
Speaker 1: this couple. They buy this house, spruce it up a
Speaker 1: little bit, turnaround, sell it, make a little cheddar it's
Speaker 1: a lot. It looks like a lot of fun. It
Speaker 1: is a lot of fun, and you can make a
Speaker 1: pile of money. And you don't have to know what
Speaker 1: you're doing because Flipping Made Easy dot Com knows what
Speaker 1: they're doing and they've put everything you need on one website.
Speaker 1: If you go to flipping meadeesy dot com and you
Speaker 1: sign up used to promo code Jesse, save you some money.
Speaker 1: Flippy meadeesy dot com promo code Jesse. When you go
Speaker 1: sign up there, you have every single thing you need
Speaker 1: from experts writing articles. You have vendors, local vendors in
Speaker 1: your area. You have the flipping opportunities in your area.
Speaker 1: I don't know what to buy. It's right there, Flipping
Speaker 1: made easy dot Com. Go get it, enjoy used to
Speaker 1: promo code Jesse. We'll be back. They're not going to
Speaker 1: stop all this mandate madness, this craziness out there, and
Speaker 1: this has been my frustration since the very beginning, since
Speaker 1: fifteen days, to slow the spreading. You remember, I was
Speaker 1: right here on camera saying, are you out of your minds? No, No,
Speaker 1: don't do this. These people do not give back power.
Speaker 1: They're not sitting around a table right now trying to
Speaker 1: figure out how to back off, how to leave you alone.
Speaker 1: No more mandates, no more masks, no more of this.
Speaker 1: That thought never enters their mind. They're not going to stop.
Speaker 1: They never stop. Their communists simply there to a good
Speaker 1: center who sees the headlines back here who have been
Speaker 1: staved down. Should they prepare their ways down to give
Speaker 1: back dad or should they No, that's a great question.
Speaker 1: I appreciate the question. We think people should not wait.
Speaker 1: We say, do not wait to take actions that will
Speaker 1: keep your workplace safe. It is important and critical to
Speaker 1: do and waiting to get more people vaccinated will lead
Speaker 1: to more outbreaks and sickness. So this is about keeping
Speaker 1: people in a workplace safe and so, and what we're
Speaker 1: seeing is more businesses and school closures and most lost
Speaker 1: jobs and keep us, keep us stuck in a pandemic
Speaker 1: that we're trying to end. Like, we do not want
Speaker 1: that to happen. We're trying to get past this pandemic,
Speaker 1: and we know the way to do that is to
Speaker 1: get people vaccinated. So people should not wait. We should
Speaker 1: continue to go move forward and make sure that they're
Speaker 1: getting their their workplace vaccinated. Just to clarify the Fifth Circuit.
Speaker 1: They put a stop to the vaccine mandate. That's a
Speaker 1: court order stopped. The White House says, don't stop, keep going.
Speaker 1: That's that's tyrannical. That's think a dictator would do. I
Speaker 1: don't care what the courts say. Keep going. It's a
Speaker 1: really really really big deal. The way these people see
Speaker 1: themselves a really big deal. And look when I say
Speaker 1: they're not going to stop, understand something. They're still seeking
Speaker 1: out new ways to punish you dirty unvaccinated people. The
Speaker 1: US is now accepting fully vaccinated travelers from countries that
Speaker 1: were previously restricted during the pandemic. Given how rapidly the
Speaker 1: various brand here within the United States over the summer,
Speaker 1: why are still no vaccine or testing requirements for domestic travel?
Speaker 1: So you know, we say this all the time. Everything's
Speaker 1: on the table. We just don't have any announcement to
Speaker 1: preview right now on this. Everything's on the table, domestic
Speaker 1: air travel, everything is on the table. They're constantly telling
Speaker 1: you what they believe, what they think. Believe them. And remember,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get off this now, but just remember this,
Speaker 1: This never ever ever stops until we stop it, until
Speaker 1: there is mass non compliance. This never stops ever, because
Speaker 1: these people won't get tired. All right, we still got
Speaker 1: a great show for you. Make sure you stay tuned
Speaker 1: until you catch our light in the mood at the
Speaker 1: end of the show. It's a real uplifter. But let's
Speaker 1: talk about your home for a minute. Would suck to
Speaker 1: get kicked out of that home, right? Would suck to
Speaker 1: have to come home from work and tell your spouse
Speaker 1: that they should pack a bag because you're getting kicked out.
Speaker 1: That's happening to people across the country because of home
Speaker 1: title theft. These cyber thieves they hack into your home title.
Speaker 1: It's online. It's online, they hack into it, they forge
Speaker 1: your signature on it, they take a loan out against it.
Speaker 1: The signature looks real, by the way. You should have
Speaker 1: seen that they did it to me, and then they
Speaker 1: take off with the money. You start getting late notices,
Speaker 1: and then you start getting eviction notices. At that point point,
Speaker 1: you either get evicted, or you spend tens of thousands
Speaker 1: of dollars on a lawyer to try to stay in
Speaker 1: the home you didn't sell, or you can go to
Speaker 1: hometitle lock dot com right now and sign up. They'll
Speaker 1: detect any tampering and shut it down like that hometitle
Speaker 1: lock dot com go. Now. I feel like most Americans
Speaker 1: realize China isn't exactly our friend, and I feel like
Speaker 1: many Americans, probably not most, but many understand who Jijian
Speaker 1: Ping is. He's the leader of China. But I do
Speaker 1: believe that is where the knowledge of this human being stopped.
Speaker 1: You could probably pick him out of a police lineup.
Speaker 1: But who is this guy? Probably worth asking given China's
Speaker 1: military and industrial power. Joining me now, Michael Singer. He
Speaker 1: is the author of the book Snake Oil. How Jianping
Speaker 1: shut Down the World? Michael, How did he shut down
Speaker 1: the world? Thanks so much, Jesse, Thank you so much
Speaker 1: for having me on the show. So the title of
Speaker 1: the book is Snake Oil, and essentially the premise of
Speaker 1: the book is really summarized in that title. Essentially, the
Speaker 1: entire COVID nineteen crisis, from the very first impressions we
Speaker 1: got in early twenty twenty, was just a giant snake
Speaker 1: oil sale by the Chinese Communist Party in which they
Speaker 1: sewed this unwarranted fear of the virus and essentially used
Speaker 1: the unwarranted fear to launder the snake oil of totalitarianisms.
Speaker 1: Most importantly, these lockdowns into science. That lockdown if you
Speaker 1: actually go back and look at the scientific literature, if
Speaker 1: you go back and look at pandemic plans around the
Speaker 1: world and developed nations around the world, and even the
Speaker 1: World Health Organization's own pandemic plans, this concept of lockdown
Speaker 1: actually on no basis in science prior to Sheet and
Speaker 1: Ping's orders in January twenty twenty. So this was actually
Speaker 1: laundered into science just in a matter of just a
Speaker 1: few weeks in February twenty twenty. They had no prior
Speaker 1: scientific basis before that. And this entire concept of lockdown,
Speaker 1: which was laundered so quickly into science, was all based
Speaker 1: on this idea that the Chinese Communist Party had eliminated
Speaker 1: this virus from all of China by shutting down Wuhan
Speaker 1: for a month or two. And that's really it. That's
Speaker 1: the entire scientific basis for this idea behind lockdown, and
Speaker 1: just based on that, within a matter of weeks, the
Speaker 1: entire world had shut down, And I mean that's the
Speaker 1: long and short of it. Using this sort of viral
Speaker 1: public health propaganda, this terror that was show sewed in
Speaker 1: early twenty twenty this viral public health propaganda and the
Speaker 1: CCP's network of collaborators around the world, based on the
Speaker 1: decades that the West head been dealing with China in
Speaker 1: business and academics and normalized China, that they had that
Speaker 1: much influence that they're actually able to launder this into
Speaker 1: science in just a matter of weeks. That's what I
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you about. Actually, that was what I
Speaker 1: was going to ask next. Is Okay, I understand China
Speaker 1: maybe locking down their place, and I certainly understand China
Speaker 1: lying trying to get everyone else to absolutely shoot themselves
Speaker 1: in the foot. I get all that. What I don't
Speaker 1: get is how American experts, scientists, doctors, so on and
Speaker 1: so forth, how every single talking head on the television
Speaker 1: seemed to be parroting the Chinese propaganda. We don't have
Speaker 1: people who can think for ourselves here, right, I mean
Speaker 1: that is you know, the worst part of this story
Speaker 1: is how in the world did the United States of
Speaker 1: America come to be this enamored with China that, you know,
Speaker 1: our entire pandemic plan and our scientific literature, really our
Speaker 1: entire epistemology was just tossed out in just a matter
Speaker 1: of weeks to make way for this concept of lockdown
Speaker 1: had just been ordered weeks before by she didn't Pa,
Speaker 1: who everybody knows is, you know, arguably the world's worst dictator.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows that, and yet they adopted his paul to
Speaker 1: see shut down the entire United States of America based
Speaker 1: on that. There are several explanations. You know. First of all,
Speaker 1: it was the effectiveness of that terror propaganda. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think most people saw the fake videos Wuhan residents just
Speaker 1: falling to their deaths in January and February of twenty twenty,
Speaker 1: and even though they might look silly, that was very
Speaker 1: effective because it just implanted the idea in the even
Speaker 1: in skeptical minds, and some people bought in outright, and
Speaker 1: they thought, this is a supervirus and you know, we
Speaker 1: gotta do everything we can. We never world's never seen
Speaker 1: anything like this before. But even for people who didn't
Speaker 1: buy into it outright, there was that there was just
Speaker 1: that kind of what if in the back of their minds,
Speaker 1: this idea that you know, maybe I should wait and see,
Speaker 1: maybe I shouldn't speak up like this all seems kind
Speaker 1: of strange, but you know, what if? What if it
Speaker 1: actually is a supervirus. So even for people who were skeptical,
Speaker 1: they kept a little more quiet than they would have.
Speaker 1: And that group think is just very effective. And the
Speaker 1: other thing is China's influence with it at the institutional levels,
Speaker 1: actually among elite institutions, and there's a huge group think
Speaker 1: aspect to this. When people see these prestigious magazines and
Speaker 1: prestigious publications, prestigious universities getting behind this lie that you
Speaker 1: can just eliminate a virus from a country by shutting
Speaker 1: down one city for a couple of months. You know,
Speaker 1: that is really stupid in itself. But when you see
Speaker 1: Harvard University, you see all these economists at the University
Speaker 1: of Chicago saying, oh, yeah, great idea. Yeah you can
Speaker 1: definitely do that. You see in New York Times saying, yeah,
Speaker 1: let's do it. Let's do it, guys. You know, this
Speaker 1: is America's most historically most prestigious newspaper saying yeah, this
Speaker 1: is a great idea, that's what you got to do,
Speaker 1: and they adopt this. All of a sudden, you have
Speaker 1: the most prestigious elite institutions in America are repeating this lie.
Speaker 1: Suddenly you think, okay, maybe I'm the stupid one. Maybe,
Speaker 1: you know, you really can eliminate a virus by shutting
Speaker 1: down a city for a couple of months, and maybe
Speaker 1: this really is the science. You know, I don't see
Speaker 1: it in the you know, literature personally, but maybe I'm
Speaker 1: missing something. Because these they were like really prestigious people
Speaker 1: in this so this lie becomes normalized and it doesn't
Speaker 1: take very many people. And historically this is how communist
Speaker 1: influences operated. This is how the Chinese Communist Party won
Speaker 1: the Chinese Civil War, this is how Joseph Stalin took
Speaker 1: over Eastern Europe. It only takes a very small number
Speaker 1: of collaborators, and that's when you get into the darkest
Speaker 1: part of the story. Who is a CCP collaborator if
Speaker 1: there are any at all, could just be a pure
Speaker 1: group thing from propaganda. But historically these influence operations involved
Speaker 1: this very tiny number of well placed collaborators to normalize
Speaker 1: this lie in very key institutions I think where you
Speaker 1: might find them as obviously in the public health bureaucracy,
Speaker 1: perhaps in the biosecurity bureaucracy, you know, getting the national
Speaker 1: intelligence community to go along with this idea that it
Speaker 1: could be a supervirus. So that is perhaps the deepest
Speaker 1: and darkest part of the story is who deliberately push
Speaker 1: this along within our own bureaucracy. Yeah, Michael again speaking
Speaker 1: with Michael Sayger, I cannot wait to read this book.
Speaker 1: The book is called Snake Oil. Michael, explain to me,
Speaker 1: as much as you know, who is this man, where
Speaker 1: did he come from? What kind of person is he?
Speaker 1: So that's actually a very important story. In the first
Speaker 1: chapters of the book are really kind of dedicated to
Speaker 1: that story. So she didn't. Ping is a Chinese Communist
Speaker 1: Party princely. He is a son of one of the
Speaker 1: revolutionary leaders who fought alongside Mao in the Chinese Civil War.
Speaker 1: Mao and his father had a falling out and then
Speaker 1: during the Cultural Revolution. The Cultural Revolution is a period
Speaker 1: shortly after Mao is greatly forward the worst famine in
Speaker 1: human history, where Mault was feeling very insecure and he
Speaker 1: began this really hardline communist campaign, you know the level
Speaker 1: I'd say, even really more communists in North Korea, if
Speaker 1: that's possible, where Man inspired all of his fanatical followers
Speaker 1: to go across China and literally destroy all of China's
Speaker 1: entrant historical artifacts and statues, and still Maosadian thought as
Speaker 1: China's dominant ideology. So he just had created this fanatical base,
Speaker 1: and anybody who was not intensely loyal to Mausadam was purged.
Speaker 1: That included shooting Ping's father. So during this period, Chijuping
Speaker 1: had a horrible youth dur in this period because his
Speaker 1: father was purged, his school was shut down. Chiming was
Speaker 1: kind of a nerd growing up. He was kind of
Speaker 1: this bookish kid, and so he's being bullied relentlessly. His
Speaker 1: parents were tortured, his sister was coerced into suicide. He
Speaker 1: was taught trying to escape rural labor, so he was
Speaker 1: actually sentenced to a forced labor camp for re education.
Speaker 1: And yet despite all this, he never lost faith in
Speaker 1: the party. And eventually I did that. You know, it
Speaker 1: wasn't now his fault. This is all this is all necessary,
Speaker 1: this is a part of his education, and he became
Speaker 1: intensely loyal to the party and the mission of the
Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party. As the result, he applied ten times
Speaker 1: to get back on good graces with the Chinese Communist Party.
Speaker 1: And since then, you know, he was just the model
Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party man just intensely loyal to the original
Speaker 1: ideals of Mao Zedong, and he just everywhere he looked
Speaker 1: he saw corruption. He saw Western corruption all across China,
Speaker 1: and he was just dedicated to purging this because you know,
Speaker 1: this could succeed now his original vision could succeed. So
Speaker 1: as soon as he gets power, it's you know, a
Speaker 1: soft coup by people like she who are intensely loyal
Speaker 1: to this idea that communism was the world's future, the
Speaker 1: communism capitalism cannot coexist. And yeah, he became just an
Speaker 1: absolute dictator essentially like Mau Zedong. There's just no question.
Speaker 1: He is the most absolute ruler that China has had
Speaker 1: since Mao Zedong has punished millions of officials, has replaced
Speaker 1: images of Jesus Christ with images of himself, and churches
Speaker 1: obviously you know, millions, and minorities and concentration camps. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't think people grasp, but they think, you know,
Speaker 1: China's pretty far away. That's a nine hour flight away,
Speaker 1: Like that's not going to affect us. We're talking about
Speaker 1: a country at one point four billion people. You know,
Speaker 1: we're talking about a sixth of the world's population in
Speaker 1: this country that is becoming more dystopian year by year,
Speaker 1: day after day. That is going to you know, a
Speaker 1: sixth of the world's population. It is very integrated into
Speaker 1: the global economy, in the global system backs letting, and
Speaker 1: we haven't seen something like that since Nazi Germany a
Speaker 1: country become that dystopian well being integrated into global economy.
Speaker 1: This has Michael Sanger his book, Sorry Michael, sorry about that.
Speaker 1: He is Michael Sanger. His book is Snake Oil. Go
Speaker 1: out and get it today. I am going to get it.
Speaker 1: I am completely fascinated by this. Thank you, Michael, Thank
Speaker 1: you so much. Jesse. Now are you in debt? Are you?
Speaker 1: It's all right? If you you old ten thousand dollars
Speaker 1: and more, it's all right. And what happens is when
Speaker 1: you get buried in debt fifty sixty grand whatever, whatever
Speaker 1: the case may be, one hundred, I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't know. When you get buried in debt. Sometimes it's
Speaker 1: tempting to give up because you're doing the math. Right,
Speaker 1: I'd taken this much every month, even if I were
Speaker 1: to save every dime, which is not possible, right, But
Speaker 1: even if I save every dime. I'll never even pay
Speaker 1: off this. Let's just throw our hands up. I understand.
Speaker 1: Do me a favor and make one more phone call
Speaker 1: for me. Call Total Financial Freedom. They've been doing it
Speaker 1: for over fifteen years. They have an A plus rating
Speaker 1: with a Better Business Bureau. Give them a phone call.
Speaker 1: There's nothing you've done. There's no amount of debt or
Speaker 1: weird debt you've acquired they haven't seen before. They're cutting
Speaker 1: payments in half, sometimes in half. Call eight seven seven
Speaker 1: three three two eight two nine one eight seven seven
Speaker 1: three three two eight two nine one. We'll be back.
Speaker 1: Sometimes we even bring educated people on the show to
Speaker 1: tell us about fancy lawyering things. And that's where my
Speaker 1: buddy Will Chamberlain always comes in. He's, of course, the
Speaker 1: senior counselor of the Internet Accountability Project. Will. Now, as
Speaker 1: you know, they didn't offer a law program at my
Speaker 1: community college, so I don't know what exactly is going
Speaker 1: on in the written House trial. I try to read
Speaker 1: people like you who educate me. But Kyle Rittenhouse. Everyone
Speaker 1: remembers him being called a white supremasis last summer when
Speaker 1: he killed a couple of Antifa guys. He's now on trial.
Speaker 1: How's it going, Will? Very poorly for the prosecution, Well
Speaker 1: so far from mister Rittenhouse's chances. And you know, you
Speaker 1: can talk all you want about my fancy law degree,
Speaker 1: but you don't really need one to figure out things
Speaker 1: are going badly for the prosecution. When the prosecution's own
Speaker 1: witnesses say things like he didn't shoot me until I
Speaker 1: pointed my gun at him, Like I don't what I mean,
Speaker 1: it seems pretty intuitive self defense at that point. You know.
Speaker 1: Today's testimony was the medical examiner who apparently testified that
Speaker 1: mister Rosenbaum, the first person shot, that his hands had
Speaker 1: gunpowder on them, which would indicate they were very close
Speaker 1: to the barrel of a gun, which would support a
Speaker 1: theory that he was trying to grab the gun and
Speaker 1: take it away from Kyle, which is also a clear
Speaker 1: self defense. So it's it's it's been very going, almost
Speaker 1: laughably poorly for the prosecution. Okay. In case, by the way,
Speaker 1: in case everyone's wondering what Will was talking about about
Speaker 1: the guy admitting pointing the gun at him, we actually
Speaker 1: have the video clip here. Watched this. That's a photo
Speaker 1: of you, yes, yes, okay, that's mister Witttenhouse correct. When
Speaker 1: you were standing three to five feet from him with
Speaker 1: your arms up in the air, he never fired right correct.
Speaker 1: It wasn't until you pointed your gun at him, advanced
Speaker 1: at him with your gun now your hands down, pointed
Speaker 1: at him that he fired right correct. Okay that's uh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that didn't seem like it went well. Okay, Well break
Speaker 1: this down for people who don't understand, because I don't understand.
Speaker 1: Did they overcharge Kyle? Written? How should he have not
Speaker 1: been charged at all? Everything? I look like, this doesn't
Speaker 1: look like a kid who should be on trial, looks
Speaker 1: like he should be getting a medal somewhere. But I
Speaker 1: don't want to speak out of turn. Well what happened?
Speaker 1: How did all this get to this place? This is
Speaker 1: the kind of case that normally prosecutors will decline to charge,
Speaker 1: not least because they would think that Kyle acted in
Speaker 1: the right, you know, in self defense, but also because
Speaker 1: they don't want to get embarrassed when clear video evidence
Speaker 1: demonstrates that their theory of the case is nonsense. So
Speaker 1: you end up with this kind of bizarre situation where
Speaker 1: because there's this social media mob that's trying to pressure
Speaker 1: prosecutors into doing things and it's hard to dissent from
Speaker 1: the party line. People are getting banned for defending Writtenhouse
Speaker 1: a year ago, for example, that you end up with
Speaker 1: these prosecutions that would never happen if they weren't subject
Speaker 1: to this intense social media pressure. But it turns out
Speaker 1: that a court of laws are very different from Twitter.
Speaker 1: You can't just make something up or take a very
Speaker 1: tenuous BS line about someone's guilt and then expect it
Speaker 1: to fly with a jury. The other side gets to
Speaker 1: get up and ask you your witnesses questions about it,
Speaker 1: and if the answers don't make sense, they can keep
Speaker 1: asking questions about it to show how flawed everything is.
Speaker 1: And I think that's what happened there. You had gross
Speaker 1: core its eventually forced to conceive that self defense was
Speaker 1: what was happening here. Will can you explain to me then,
Speaker 1: a district attorney? I mean, I realize there are some
Speaker 1: hardcore lefty ones in this country, but they now charge
Speaker 1: people with crimes that can put them away for life
Speaker 1: based on what's trending on Twitter. Are you seeing a
Speaker 1: lot of this in the country, because that's really not
Speaker 1: a healthy place to be. I mean, I don't honestly
Speaker 1: think we're seeing that much of it in the absence
Speaker 1: of I mean, because here's the thing. Prosecutors are self
Speaker 1: interested people. You start with that assumption, right, They might
Speaker 1: they might generally be working in the public interest, but
Speaker 1: they're generally self interested, and a large part of that
Speaker 1: self interest is maintaining a spotless prosecutorial record. It's not
Speaker 1: hard in general for prosecutors have a really really good
Speaker 1: record of winning a trial because generally when they bring
Speaker 1: a case to trial and don't let somebody plea out,
Speaker 1: it's because they had their confident they can prove guilty
Speaker 1: out of reasonable doubt, and usually they can. Lawyers in
Speaker 1: my old firm, you know, bragged about their massively incredible
Speaker 1: trial records, but those were those records were always compiled
Speaker 1: as prosecutors when they when they had the deck stacked
Speaker 1: in their favor, if you will. So this is a
Speaker 1: really weird one, and so it's a unique phenomenon that's
Speaker 1: kind of specific to these social media cases where prosecutors
Speaker 1: bring at cases that they really should know are very bad,
Speaker 1: very very cases, but they do it because there's a
Speaker 1: mob at the door demanding that the prosecution happen that's
Speaker 1: very odd, all right. I did see Saint George Floyd's nephew,
Speaker 1: mister Cortez Rice put out a little video I'm gonna
Speaker 1: play for everyone. Now. I ain't even gonna name the
Speaker 1: people that I know that's in a Kenosha I mean
Speaker 1: in a Kenosha trial. But this camera's in there. You know,
Speaker 1: it's definitely cameras up in there, and it's definitely people
Speaker 1: taking pitches of the jury's and everything like that. We
Speaker 1: know what's going on, So we need the same resource, man,
Speaker 1: we need the same resource. Justice for Dantay right, justice
Speaker 1: for Austin Will. Now, I'm not clear again on all
Speaker 1: the legal legalities behind all this, but I it's it's
Speaker 1: my impression that it's not legal to threaten a jury
Speaker 1: to come up with the verdict you want. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: that's my understanding as well. I think this person should
Speaker 1: be interviewed by local police or federal investigators, one of
Speaker 1: the two to kind of figure out exactly who is
Speaker 1: planning to docks j in a prominent criminal trial. Behavior
Speaker 1: is appalling and not something to be flipping about. And
Speaker 1: you know, I'd like to see this person under oath
Speaker 1: explaining exactly what he knows about these people who want
Speaker 1: to intimidate jurors and corrupt the corrupt the rule of law. Okay, well, look,
Speaker 1: I mean maybe he will get out of its Scott free.
Speaker 1: His uncle was a saint. Let's play the media's narrative
Speaker 1: about Kyle Rittenhouse immediately after the shooting took place, because
Speaker 1: I have to question whether or not Kyle might end
Speaker 1: up being a very, very very rich man when this
Speaker 1: trial's over. Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse. He murdered two people.
Speaker 1: By the way, Rittenhouse is basically what you would have
Speaker 1: had in a school shooter. He's a seventeen year old kid.
Speaker 1: He shouldn't have had a gun. He crossed eight lines
Speaker 1: to supposedly protect property. No, he was going out to
Speaker 1: shoot people. Kyle Rittenhouse, the seventeen year old vigilante, Kyle
Speaker 1: Rittenhouse and vigilante. Kyle Rittenhouse, the arm teenage vigilante, seventeen
Speaker 1: year old vigilant, arguably a domestic terrorists, picked up a rifle,
Speaker 1: drove to a different state to shoot people. Kyle Rittenhouse,
Speaker 1: a guy who's deeply racist, went with weapons to a
Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter protest looking to get in trouble he did.
Speaker 1: He murdered a couple of people. Writtenhouse, the seventeen year
Speaker 1: old kid just running around shooting and killing protesters, you see,
Speaker 1: the seventeen year old who was radicalized by Trumpism took
Speaker 1: his ar fifteenth to Kenosha and became a killer. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: I obviously don't think anybody watching has any love for
Speaker 1: any one of the losers we just saw there, So
Speaker 1: I don't think we necessarily have to comment on that,
Speaker 1: although you're more than welcome to. But I don't understand
Speaker 1: how the whole lawsuit business works. That sure seems like
Speaker 1: a bunch of people on national television accusing him of
Speaker 1: being a white supremacist murderer without evidence. Can he sue?
Speaker 1: Very tricky In the United States, they're all public figures,
Speaker 1: so you'd have to prove what's called actual malice, meaning
Speaker 1: like they knowing, lying or reckless disregard of the truth.
Speaker 1: And the problem is, at the time that most of
Speaker 1: those statements were made, Kyle Rittenhouse was charged with murder. Right,
Speaker 1: so even if that charge was baseless, I think all
Speaker 1: these commentators will have the ability to say, well, I
Speaker 1: had a reasonable basis to say what I said I
Speaker 1: honestly thought it. And so and that's kind of the
Speaker 1: end of a defamation claim in the United States. Now
Speaker 1: query whether that should be defamation law right. I mean,
Speaker 1: in a sense, the victim of defamation is an innocent victim.
Speaker 1: He didn't do anything, and all of a sudden his
Speaker 1: reputation is being slantered. And this is true in every context.
Speaker 1: And so you know, the laws that we're have defamation
Speaker 1: are a lot looser in other parts of the world.
Speaker 1: It's really unique to the United States, at least your
Speaker 1: cards to the restaurant world. How how strict we are
Speaker 1: or how hard we make it for defamation plainists, because
Speaker 1: if you were able to just sew any sort of
Speaker 1: basis for saying what you said, or or really it's
Speaker 1: just people aren't able to prove that you knowingly lied,
Speaker 1: then it's really hard to win a defamation claim. Okay,
Speaker 1: then how did that Nicholas Simon. People remember who was
Speaker 1: the guy who was smiling when the Indian dude who
Speaker 1: went pounding on some drums up in his face and
Speaker 1: everyone called him a white supremacist. How did Nicholas Salmon
Speaker 1: end up a very rich man. Well, we don't actually
Speaker 1: know that he ended up a very rich man. We
Speaker 1: know that he sued and the top line number that
Speaker 1: he sued for was two hundred fifty million dollars, and
Speaker 1: we know that he's settled, but we don't know the
Speaker 1: number he's settled for. And so some of the lawyers involved,
Speaker 1: some of whom I don't have a lot of respect for,
Speaker 1: namely Lyne Wood, made claims about you know, they trumpeted
Speaker 1: a press release, h Kyle. You know, like Nicholas Salmon
Speaker 1: settled two hundred fifty million dollar lawsuit, but they hopefully
Speaker 1: omitted the actual dollar amount that went to him. I
Speaker 1: suspect that he actually didn't do as well as most
Speaker 1: of his thought, and probably because the Washington Post had
Speaker 1: a sort of similar was in a similar position. They
Speaker 1: I don't think the lawyers in that case shows the
Speaker 1: best defendants to really go after, and as a result,
Speaker 1: I don't actually think Nick Sammon made that much money.
Speaker 1: All right, Will Chamberlain, thank you so much, will always pleasure.
Speaker 1: All Right, it's time for lighten the mood next. All right,
Speaker 1: it's time to lighten the mood. And you know what
Speaker 1: always brings me up. I don't know why you can
Speaker 1: say I'm a big softie. But what always lifts me
Speaker 1: up and brightens my day is when I see a
Speaker 1: good animal rescue video. I mean, you've seen these videos.
Speaker 1: I would do your Caught in a frozen lake, a
Speaker 1: dog's tracked, trapped out in the water, and they go
Speaker 1: get him. I like watching animals who are rescued, So
Speaker 1: sit back, relax, and enjoy this bird. I'm gonna follow
Speaker 1: you because just make sure i'll get this funny too. Hey,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'll see you tomorrow.
