Dr. Fauci blasted over new revelations about COVID lab leak; Matt Schlapp joins us to discuss · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:00
Speaker 1: Doctor Fauci now in the crosshairs of criticism being blasted
0:05
Speaker 1: over the new revelations about the Wuhan Institute of Virology
0:09
Speaker 1: and the COVID nineteen origins clearly coming from that lab League.
0:14
Speaker 1: This after not one but two different sectors of the
0:17
Speaker 1: US government have now assessed that's what they believe, the
0:21
Speaker 1: FBI and the Energy Department. So why is doctor Fauci
0:26
Speaker 1: not coming clean about this? Well, take a listen to
0:29
Speaker 1: what was said this morning by representative from New Jersey
0:33
Speaker 1: Jeff and Drew as he was asked about this on
0:36
Speaker 1: Fox and Friends and why the American people are still
0:39
Speaker 1: not getting a straight answer. The New York Coast says
0:42
Speaker 1: it's got to be Wu after the Department of Energy
0:45
Speaker 1: reportedly admits that COVID nineteen likely originated in the Chinese
0:49
Speaker 1: lab and critics are now calling out the government and
0:51
Speaker 1: media's repeated criticism of the lab league theory. With constitutional
0:56
Speaker 1: law expert Jonathan Turley sang Quo, for years, media and
1:00
Speaker 1: government allied to treat anyone raising a lamp theory as
1:04
Speaker 1: one of three possibilities conspiracy theorists or racist or racist
1:09
Speaker 1: conspiracy theorists. Media guarantee that we did not have a
1:12
Speaker 1: full debate over the origins of the virus and attack
1:15
Speaker 1: those who had the temerity to state the obvious. New
1:19
Speaker 1: Jersey Congrest and Jeff Fanjers a member of the GOP
1:22
Speaker 1: Doctors Caucus, and he joins us Now, Congress is great
1:25
Speaker 1: to have you on the program. The question I still
1:28
Speaker 1: can't figure out why why did they censor these voices?
1:33
Speaker 1: What was in it for them? Why? Well, we've got
1:37
Speaker 1: a group of people that just don't like to tell
1:39
Speaker 1: the truth. I mean, their New Year's resolution should have
1:41
Speaker 1: been and we're still in the beginning of the year,
1:44
Speaker 1: to start telling the truth and let people who know
1:47
Speaker 1: the truth say it. This is not an amazing revelation.
1:50
Speaker 1: I mean, this was a virus we've never seen anything
1:53
Speaker 1: like before. They claimed that came from a wet meat
1:56
Speaker 1: market and it was a bad and yet we've never
1:59
Speaker 1: seen any thing that was actually natural like this. And
2:02
Speaker 1: certainly there should have been a thorough discussion. Certainly we
2:05
Speaker 1: should have had a president that was strong enough to
2:08
Speaker 1: speak with China, to really tell the World Health Organization
2:12
Speaker 1: to stop lying to us, to tell big tech not
2:16
Speaker 1: to you know, to let people actually tell the truth
2:19
Speaker 1: and not to repress those that really know what's going on,
2:22
Speaker 1: or at least have a vision of what's going on,
2:25
Speaker 1: Doctor Fauci. I mean, the American people are sick and
2:29
Speaker 1: tired of being lied to, you know, day after day,
2:32
Speaker 1: week after week, year after year. And this is just
2:35
Speaker 1: another example. People were punished for this. Some people lost
2:39
Speaker 1: their job if they had a different opinion than the
2:41
Speaker 1: really wrong opinion that was being put out there. You know,
2:45
Speaker 1: I know Congress one's answers, but as you said, the
2:48
Speaker 1: American people want and deserve answers. This uprooted millions of
2:52
Speaker 1: people's lives, from the COVID origins, the efficacy of masks,
2:58
Speaker 1: the way to school. Such ation was handled. But do
3:01
Speaker 1: you think we're ever going to really get any true answers,
3:03
Speaker 1: even though they're coming out saying, you know what this
3:05
Speaker 1: might have been right now, But do you think we're
3:06
Speaker 1: ever going to get the answers that we need. Well,
3:08
Speaker 1: we're going to dig in in the House of Representatives.
3:11
Speaker 1: I mean, the House really wants to know true answers.
3:14
Speaker 1: These are some of the things we talked about even
3:16
Speaker 1: during the campaign. It's enough. People are tired. They want
3:21
Speaker 1: a government that tells them the truth. They want a
3:24
Speaker 1: government that works for them. We don't work for the government.
3:27
Speaker 1: But this is really I hate to say it this way,
3:30
Speaker 1: this is six stuff when you you know, remember doctor Fauci.
3:33
Speaker 1: I mean, it isn't only this issue. It was the
3:36
Speaker 1: mask issue. It was the very issue of COVID itself.
3:39
Speaker 1: If you didn't need to wear masks in the very beginning,
3:42
Speaker 1: then you needed it. Then you needed two masks. Then
3:44
Speaker 1: if you got the vaccine, you didn't need masks, then
3:47
Speaker 1: the vaccine would you would never ever have COVID again.
3:50
Speaker 1: I mean, it's been lie after lae, misinformation after misinformation,
3:55
Speaker 1: and it's about time we cracked this egg open and
3:59
Speaker 1: really found what's actually going on. You know, it's most
4:02
Speaker 1: hurtful about when not only did the Chinese and we
4:05
Speaker 1: know the real truth poison the world on the United States.
4:09
Speaker 1: I mean, let's just tell the truth. Hopefully it was
4:12
Speaker 1: an accident, but not only did they do this, but
4:15
Speaker 1: they lied about it. And we have an administration that
4:18
Speaker 1: doesn't have the guts to go forward and get the
4:21
Speaker 1: truth out of them. And we paid for it. That's
4:24
Speaker 1: the worst part of all. We paid for the damn
4:27
Speaker 1: lab and we paid for the damn lab. This is
4:30
Speaker 1: where doctor Fauci, and in the lack of transparency from
4:36
Speaker 1: Fauci and the cover up from Fauci affects you as
4:39
Speaker 1: a taxpayer. We paid for this lab. We were sending
4:43
Speaker 1: them millions and millions of dollars. We created this problem.
4:48
Speaker 1: At the Wuhan Institute of Virology. We were working with
4:52
Speaker 1: China on far too many things that the American taxpayers
4:55
Speaker 1: didn't even know that we were working on. That is
4:59
Speaker 1: another problem. All right, I'm gonna tell you more about
5:01
Speaker 1: this in a second, but I do need to tell
5:03
Speaker 1: you about our friends at a Gust of Precious Medals.
5:05
Speaker 1: If you've been saving for a long time for retirement,
5:08
Speaker 1: you know that you need to protect your money, and
5:12
Speaker 1: one way to do that is with a gold Ira.
5:14
Speaker 1: I'm excited about telling you about a company that I
5:16
Speaker 1: actually use. I have actually worked with a Gust of
5:20
Speaker 1: Precious Medals. They are different because they will even tell
5:24
Speaker 1: you if a gold Ira isn't your answer, they give
5:28
Speaker 1: you just the facts. Now, A Gust of Precious Metal
5:30
Speaker 1: is all about protecting your ira and your four oh
5:34
Speaker 1: one k. They're great people, a great conservative company. They're
5:39
Speaker 1: great people at a great conservative company. They understand right
5:43
Speaker 1: now that it's crazy with our economy and it's extremely important,
5:48
Speaker 1: especially if you're close to retirement, to protect your assets
5:51
Speaker 1: because there's no time to make up losses. So if
5:54
Speaker 1: you've saved a hundred thousand dollars or more, then you
5:57
Speaker 1: should take a look at their free guide and you
6:00
Speaker 1: should really sign up for something that I've done. It's
6:02
Speaker 1: a web conference where you talk to a top individual
6:06
Speaker 1: about gold iras and you're four oh one k Check
6:10
Speaker 1: them out and get the peace of mind that you're
6:12
Speaker 1: protecting your hard earned assets when you get really close
6:15
Speaker 1: to retirement eight seven seven four the number four gold
6:20
Speaker 1: Ira eight seven seven four gold Ira, or visit them
6:26
Speaker 1: online at augusta Precious Metals dot com. Say I sent
6:29
Speaker 1: you and they will pay your fees for up to
6:31
Speaker 1: ten years. That's August of Precious Metals dot Com. Eight
6:35
Speaker 1: seven seven four gold Ira. All right now, not one
6:39
Speaker 1: time has this government come out and especially the Biden
6:42
Speaker 1: administration and basically called out China for what they did
6:46
Speaker 1: to the world. China knew it came out of the lab.
6:49
Speaker 1: China knew it was infecting their people. China knew that
6:52
Speaker 1: it was going to spread to the world if they
6:54
Speaker 1: didn't stop travel, and China allowed it to spread the world.
6:57
Speaker 1: Now my opinion, okay, theory of why China went down
7:02
Speaker 1: this road and why China did this is because they
7:07
Speaker 1: realized that once this started, it was so potent, it
7:11
Speaker 1: was so deadly that they didn't want their economy to
7:16
Speaker 1: be the only economy in the world that was crushed.
7:17
Speaker 1: They didn't want their people to be the only people
7:19
Speaker 1: that died. They wanted this to get out to the
7:22
Speaker 1: rest of the world, so at least we would all
7:24
Speaker 1: be dealing with us on an even playing field. They
7:27
Speaker 1: knew from the people that worked the Wuhan Institute of
7:30
Speaker 1: Virology just how damning this lab leak was going to be.
7:35
Speaker 1: They knew because they knew the people that went to
7:38
Speaker 1: seek medical care from the Wuhan Instite of Virology, and
7:42
Speaker 1: just how sick they became from what they had experience
7:47
Speaker 1: been exposed to at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. And
7:52
Speaker 1: China did not do what a responsible nation does. They
7:56
Speaker 1: did not warned the world, they didn't take responsibility for it.
8:02
Speaker 1: They lied about its origins, they lied about how it happened,
8:06
Speaker 1: and only after you couldn't dispute that it came from China.
8:10
Speaker 1: Would they even admit that this was okay China origin?
8:15
Speaker 1: And then they lied to you about where it came from.
8:18
Speaker 1: They put out misinformation, they put out lies, They put
8:21
Speaker 1: out things that clearly were meant to distract from the
8:26
Speaker 1: actual root cause of this, which was them. We saw
8:31
Speaker 1: this with the way that they fought back early on.
8:34
Speaker 1: They didn't apologize. They didn't say they were sorry. They
8:38
Speaker 1: didn't they didn't say, we apologize for this and please
8:42
Speaker 1: protect yourself. I go back to Senator Tom Cotton, I
8:45
Speaker 1: go back to February the ninth of twenty twenty, and
8:49
Speaker 1: I will play for you again his theory. And then
8:52
Speaker 1: this is the ambassador from China on our TV networks
8:58
Speaker 1: putting out these lies and claiming that if you blame China,
9:03
Speaker 1: you're a racist. And in fact, this week Senator Tom Cotton,
9:08
Speaker 1: who sits on the Senate Intelligence and Armed Services Committee,
9:12
Speaker 1: suggested that the virus may have come from China's biological
9:15
Speaker 1: warfare program. That's an extraordinary charge. How do you respond
9:20
Speaker 1: to that. I think it's true that a lot is
9:24
Speaker 1: still unknown, and our scientists, Chinese scientists, American scientists, scientists
9:30
Speaker 1: of other countries are doing that best to learn more
9:33
Speaker 1: about the virus. But it's very harmful. It's very dangerous
9:37
Speaker 1: to still up suspicion rumors and spread them among the people.
9:41
Speaker 1: For one thing, this will create panic. Another thing that
9:45
Speaker 1: it will fend up racial discrimination, is eniophobia. All these
9:49
Speaker 1: things that will really harm our John efforts to combat
9:53
Speaker 1: the virus. Of course, there are all kinds of speculations
9:57
Speaker 1: and rumors that are people by saying, as these virus
10:01
Speaker 1: are coming from some military lab not of China, maybe
10:05
Speaker 1: in the United States. How can we believe all these
10:09
Speaker 1: craziest things? Do you think it's crazy? Where where did
10:14
Speaker 1: the virus come from? We still don't know yet. It's probably,
10:18
Speaker 1: according to some initial outcome of the research, probably coming
10:23
Speaker 1: from some animals, but we have to to discover them
10:26
Speaker 1: all about it. Probably from animals. He knew he was
10:32
Speaker 1: lying when he went on TV. He wasn't trying to
10:35
Speaker 1: protect the American people. He wasn't trying to tell you
10:39
Speaker 1: the honest truth. He was lying to you. And China
10:43
Speaker 1: killed millions of people, including more than a million Americans
10:47
Speaker 1: based on the government's numbers, And they refused to say
10:53
Speaker 1: they're star sorry and we have an administration that refused
10:58
Speaker 1: to call them out for this. My question is, why
11:01
Speaker 1: do we not have a COVID nineteen commission like nine
11:06
Speaker 1: to eleven commission. Why don't we have that when you
11:11
Speaker 1: have a catastrophe on the level that COVID nineteen was
11:17
Speaker 1: to our economy. It literally cost us trillions of dollars
11:20
Speaker 1: in government printing money that we didn't have. When you
11:23
Speaker 1: shut down an entire world, when you shut down businesses,
11:27
Speaker 1: ruined people's lives, take away two years of kids education,
11:31
Speaker 1: wouldn't you want to actually have a commission to find out,
11:33
Speaker 1: like what the hell happened? Why don't we have that commission?
11:37
Speaker 1: We had a commission after nine to eleven, and we
11:39
Speaker 1: should have, right, But why don't we have the same
11:41
Speaker 1: style commission. That was a question that was asked by
11:44
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal and they talked about it on
11:47
Speaker 1: Fox Listen. Most Americans looked at this news and said, well, Dove,
11:51
Speaker 1: of course it came from a lab. Everyone, everyone, and
11:54
Speaker 1: every normal person in America has known for years that
11:56
Speaker 1: this came from a lab. I mean, think about this.
11:58
Speaker 1: The coincies would be involved. It happened in Wuhan, which
12:01
Speaker 1: just which is the home of the Wuhan Institute of
12:03
Speaker 1: Virology that studies bad coronaviruses. But it didn't come from
12:06
Speaker 1: a lab. I mean they would do they were do
12:08
Speaker 1: We know they were doing gaining function research. We know
12:10
Speaker 1: they were doing it at biosafety level two instead of
12:13
Speaker 1: biolo safety level four, which is with the space suits.
12:15
Speaker 1: We know that three people from the Wuhan lab got
12:18
Speaker 1: sick in November twenty nineteen at the start of the
12:21
Speaker 1: pandemic and had to go to the hospital with COVID symptoms.
12:23
Speaker 1: But yeah, it didn't come from a lab. I mean,
12:25
Speaker 1: this is a two minute decision. Dana going, well, I
12:29
Speaker 1: wanted to ask about let's just talk about them, the
12:32
Speaker 1: government and the media response, because let's here's Jonathan Turley.
12:36
Speaker 1: This is what he wrote in the New York Post
12:37
Speaker 1: that the COVID lab league is a scandal of media
12:40
Speaker 1: and government censorship. So that I think is the next
12:43
Speaker 1: step if the government and the scientists are willing to
12:45
Speaker 1: actually do some introspection and to ask themselves, why did
12:49
Speaker 1: we insist on telling people that we knew it wasn't
12:51
Speaker 1: from a lab when it very well could have been.
12:53
Speaker 1: And also now we know that even if it was
12:55
Speaker 1: low confidence, that is what they believe. So here's a
12:57
Speaker 1: question I have. Why is there no nine to eleven
13:00
Speaker 1: commission for the COVID pandemic? I mean, so we got
13:04
Speaker 1: so many things wrong from the response too. I mean
13:06
Speaker 1: you look at Fauci's mistakes from the beginning of this,
13:09
Speaker 1: saying for six weeks that there was no community spread
13:12
Speaker 1: in the US, when it was because they had they
13:13
Speaker 1: were using a FLU surveillance system instead of instead of
13:16
Speaker 1: a COVID surveillance system, which had you had to present
13:18
Speaker 1: with symptoms and everyone was asymptomatic to dismissing, masking to
13:22
Speaker 1: dismiss it. I mean, you just go on the list
13:23
Speaker 1: and list of things that he got wrong to this,
13:25
Speaker 1: and no one's been held to account. There's been no
13:28
Speaker 1: investigation as they screw up the testing. Why did they
13:32
Speaker 1: screw up the testing? Last thing he just said there,
13:34
Speaker 1: let's just start with that. It's a great question, right,
13:37
Speaker 1: why did they get that wrong? How did they get
13:39
Speaker 1: all of this wrong? Shouldn't there be a like honest
13:43
Speaker 1: assessment of this, a real let's look back at what
13:46
Speaker 1: happened to get us to the point where we've screwed
13:49
Speaker 1: it up. This bad. You would think that that would
13:53
Speaker 1: be something that government would love to do, because the
13:54
Speaker 1: government loves to investigate everything. No, not on this one.
13:57
Speaker 1: And it's because the amount of money that moved around.
13:59
Speaker 1: In my opinion, it's all about money. It's all about cash.
14:04
Speaker 1: This is all about the dollars. They don't want to
14:09
Speaker 1: look back because they don't want you to realize that.
14:12
Speaker 1: There was a certain point in this conversation where it
14:16
Speaker 1: turned into an issue of it just being all about
14:20
Speaker 1: the money and how much money they could be shifting
14:23
Speaker 1: around to family and friends. This is about buying votes.
14:25
Speaker 1: I said this when it was happening. Democrats and Republicans
14:29
Speaker 1: in many parts of the country were trying to buy votes.
14:32
Speaker 1: Hey vote for us, We'll give you free money. Hey,
14:34
Speaker 1: small businesses, vote for us. We gave you money. Hey
14:37
Speaker 1: we shut down everything, but we gave you money to
14:39
Speaker 1: not work. They destroyed an entire generation who now thinks
14:42
Speaker 1: that work is sitting at home three to four days
14:44
Speaker 1: a week, or people that refuse to actually go back
14:47
Speaker 1: to work because they're like, well, I had too much
14:51
Speaker 1: fun hanging out my pj's and then they're mad at
14:54
Speaker 1: their employers, including many of these wold cliberal companies where
14:57
Speaker 1: people are refusing to go back like Facebook an Amazon.
15:01
Speaker 1: It's hilarious, right, how much the world has changed, not
15:05
Speaker 1: for the better but for the worst because of the
15:08
Speaker 1: lockdowns and the work ethic and the disappearing of the
15:12
Speaker 1: work ethic is one of the worst things ever happened. Also,
15:16
Speaker 1: I said this, I think the government at that point
15:20
Speaker 1: was trying to get people addicted to government. Eight. Again,
15:22
Speaker 1: this goes back to the woman who said, I'm voting
15:25
Speaker 1: for Barack Obama because he's gonna give me a phone,
15:29
Speaker 1: and if I vote for him again, he's going to
15:31
Speaker 1: do more. Do you remember that? You remember when that happened, right?
15:36
Speaker 1: You know, Mitt Rodney sucks, which we can all agree
15:39
Speaker 1: with now, But she said the reason why I met
15:41
Speaker 1: Rodney sucks, and she was voting for Obamas because Obama
15:44
Speaker 1: gave her an Obama phone. Democrats were losing this country.
15:48
Speaker 1: You had unemployment rates in all time lows in my lifetime,
15:52
Speaker 1: as well as the lowest unemployment rate in history for minorities,
15:57
Speaker 1: African American men, African American women, Hispanics, Asian Americans. Literally,
16:01
Speaker 1: we had the lowest unemployment rates in history, Okay, in
16:08
Speaker 1: history of this country. Pre COVID, you had a president
16:14
Speaker 1: whose approval rating was through the roof. Why was the
16:17
Speaker 1: approval rating through the roof? Because he was getting people
16:21
Speaker 1: to rely on their own work to take care of themselves.
16:25
Speaker 1: He was empowering people to not sit around and wait
16:28
Speaker 1: on the government to pay their bills. Democrats are useless
16:33
Speaker 1: as a party if they don't have enough voters dependent
16:37
Speaker 1: on them for their livelihood, and they saw an opportunity
16:41
Speaker 1: with COVID. The Democratic Party saw this opportunity and they said,
16:44
Speaker 1: all right, now we can get people reliant on us again.
16:47
Speaker 1: The government which plays to the Democrats hands because then
16:49
Speaker 1: we go out and run on this saying, hey, we're
16:51
Speaker 1: the ones that help you. We're the ones that want
16:53
Speaker 1: to continue to help you. The Republicans are the ones
16:55
Speaker 1: that want to make you actually act like adults. The
16:57
Speaker 1: Republicans are the ones that want you to go back
16:59
Speaker 1: to work. Republicans are the ones that are evil. We
17:04
Speaker 1: are the ones that love you. We're the ones that
17:06
Speaker 1: will let you sit at home and do nothing. We'll
17:12
Speaker 1: pay your bills, and we'll give you your food, and
17:16
Speaker 1: we'll go all down the list. We'll do it all, folks.
17:20
Speaker 1: Because we're the Democratic Party. This is food stamps and
17:23
Speaker 1: massive numbers. Remember when Jesse Jackson said that Barack Obama
17:26
Speaker 1: was a food stamp president, and they said, it's an
17:29
Speaker 1: honor to be a food stamp president, literally to have
17:31
Speaker 1: more people on food stamps at any of their time
17:33
Speaker 1: in modern political history. And they praised Obama for doing
17:37
Speaker 1: that because they understood the power he had. When the
17:39
Speaker 1: person needs you to put food on their table, they're
17:42
Speaker 1: not going to vote against you. They're always going to
17:44
Speaker 1: vote in favor of you. And they understood it. And
17:47
Speaker 1: there was a criticism during Obama years that he had
17:49
Speaker 1: put record number of Americans on food stamps, meaning literally
17:52
Speaker 1: you're living in poverty. Literally you're living in hell. And
17:56
Speaker 1: what ended up happening. The response was, what, let's give
18:02
Speaker 1: them a round of applause, show your love, Jesse Jackson
18:06
Speaker 1: said at a church, show your appreciation, and people cheered
18:11
Speaker 1: because they were basically no different than modern day slaves.
18:15
Speaker 1: Your master is the government, maybe Biden it, maybe Obama. Right,
18:20
Speaker 1: The Democratic Party is your owner and you are their slave,
18:24
Speaker 1: and you must vote for them, and then they'll give
18:25
Speaker 1: you food so that you don't starve to death. And
18:27
Speaker 1: they'll give you a little bit of a bonus or
18:30
Speaker 1: money so that you can pay some of your bills.
18:35
Speaker 1: And when you give them, when they give you that money,
18:38
Speaker 1: you should show them your love and appreciation for you
18:41
Speaker 1: getting to live in poverty. That is what the Democratic
18:44
Speaker 1: Party thrives on. That's why they're not going to investigate
18:48
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. So why they're not going to investigate the
18:51
Speaker 1: origins of COVID, That's why they're not going to ask
18:55
Speaker 1: tough questions because it all comes unraveling for their party
18:59
Speaker 1: just how wrong they got everything if you do that
19:04
Speaker 1: all right, Before I get into more of that, I
19:05

20:34
Speaker 1: and that is what are Republicans gonna do moving forward?
20:38
Speaker 1: How are Republicans going to respond to this? What are
20:45
Speaker 1: Republicans going to do to lead on this subject? Cepack
20:50
Speaker 1: is actually coming up this week. I'll be speaking there
20:52
Speaker 1: with Sentator Take Cruise. We're actually gonna be doing a
20:54
Speaker 1: live taping of verdict or podcast. So if you are
20:57
Speaker 1: at Spack this week, please come say hello. We would
21:00
Speaker 1: love to chat with you and make sure you say hi.
21:03
Speaker 1: I'll be on radio row. But the question that Republicans
21:06
Speaker 1: are really going to have to answer this week, because
21:09
Speaker 1: somebody there is going to be the next Republican nominee.
21:12
Speaker 1: Someone speaking at seedback will be the next Republican nominee.
21:16
Speaker 1: They're going to have to answer the question. A question
21:19
Speaker 1: is a do you investigate this? B do you expose it?
21:22
Speaker 1: And I would say that if you become president, you
21:24
Speaker 1: basically do the exact same thing that Elon mustad with Twitter.
21:28
Speaker 1: You expose the government, the inner workings, and the corruption
21:31
Speaker 1: of our government. I want someone to run on that.
21:34
Speaker 1: I want them to expose it. And all of these
21:37
Speaker 1: guys are going to be there, and they also need
21:39
Speaker 1: to expose the Democratic Party for what they have done
21:41
Speaker 1: to this country financially. You look at interest rates, you
21:44
Speaker 1: look at inflation, you look at how people are starting
21:48
Speaker 1: to teeter again. It's a problem, y'all. It's not a
21:52
Speaker 1: little problem. It's a really big problem. And Republicans need
21:56
Speaker 1: to remind the American people of how we got to
22:01
Speaker 1: this point. It was the entire Democratic Party that seized
22:05
Speaker 1: a crisis an opportunity to grab power. To grab special
22:12
Speaker 1: interests and make sure that they got what they wanted
22:15
Speaker 1: from COVID and the bailouts to make sure that their
22:18
Speaker 1: friends got paid on a level we never we had
22:21
Speaker 1: never seen before. And the COVID fraud we're talking about
22:26
Speaker 1: hundreds of billions is what we've been told to COVID
22:29
Speaker 1: fraud numbers. And I believe that number just because of
22:32
Speaker 1: there's so many people that said, Wow, the government's just
22:35
Speaker 1: throwing money around. How people were advertising call us and
22:40
Speaker 1: get more cash, call us and we'll get you paid.
22:43
Speaker 1: Call us and we'll show you just how much money
22:47
Speaker 1: we can get you. That was also a really big problem.
22:52
Speaker 1: And the Democratic Party did it to win one election.
22:55
Speaker 1: They didn't care if it bankrupt this country. They just
22:58
Speaker 1: wanted to win that one election. Is this going to
23:02
Speaker 1: be a presidential election issue? You better believe it. And
23:07
Speaker 1: every year conservatives gather at the biggest conservative conference of
23:11
Speaker 1: the year, Seapack, to talk about these types of issues.
23:15
Speaker 1: Joining me now to talk about this big week coming up.
23:17
Speaker 1: And if you haven't gotten your tickets at Seapack, you should.
23:20
Speaker 1: It's going to be one hell of a lineup. Is
23:22
Speaker 1: match slap Matt. I appreciate you coming on tonight. Let's
23:26
Speaker 1: let's just go back in time to remind people what
23:30
Speaker 1: this government did to society. I remember you and I
23:36
Speaker 1: talking and you were trying to figure out how to
23:38
Speaker 1: even put on a sea pack. You realize you couldn't
23:42
Speaker 1: have people gather in DC or in Virginia. They weren't
23:45
Speaker 1: going to allow you in Maryland, you know, the area
23:47
Speaker 1: where they were to do the conference the way UNI
23:49
Speaker 1: wanted to, and so you ended up having to move
23:52
Speaker 1: the entire conference down to Florida because of government shutdowns,
23:57
Speaker 1: lockdowns and regulations. Yeah, that's exactly right. You know you're
24:01
Speaker 1: you're harketing back. You say that the Biden administration has
24:06
Speaker 1: finally come clean on the fact that this was a
24:08
Speaker 1: lab league from Wuhan. That's nice to hear, because they
24:11
Speaker 1: actually blame Cepack for Corona when it first started, right,
24:14
Speaker 1: it was like, that's right. There was there was a
24:16
Speaker 1: case there, I remember in February, and then the media
24:18
Speaker 1: went berserk because it came out that somebody that was
24:22
Speaker 1: at Spack who I actually end up knowing UM, actually
24:26
Speaker 1: had COVID and they were implying that we were a
24:30
Speaker 1: quote super spread er event. Yeah, that that's like I have.
24:35
Speaker 1: I have like a syndrome when I think back on this,
24:38
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, PTSD, because it was you know,
24:41
Speaker 1: there was such a media push to make it Trump Corona,
24:45
Speaker 1: conservative Corona, spack Corona. You know, it was. It was
24:49
Speaker 1: an unbelievable thing we went through, and they really did um.
24:55
Speaker 1: They damaged our kids, they damaged our families. A lot
24:58
Speaker 1: of people who live in my zip code have really
25:01
Speaker 1: never recovered. We have a whole generation of people that
25:04
Speaker 1: don't know what it's like to go to work and
25:05
Speaker 1: work hard. We have a whole generation people that think
25:09
Speaker 1: you should be able to just work in your jammies
25:11
Speaker 1: and your basement, or bring your dog to work and
25:13
Speaker 1: work two and a half days of week. Our economy
25:16
Speaker 1: has never recovered and never really recovered emotionally from what
25:21
Speaker 1: we did. And you know, I meet with people who
25:23
Speaker 1: from other countries who did not close down their schools.
25:26
Speaker 1: They still can't believe, and they really chastise Americans for
25:29
Speaker 1: kind of leading the world and just shutting everything down
25:31
Speaker 1: and damaging those kids. And you know, Ben, you and
25:34
Speaker 1: I have young kids, and the damage you know, to
25:37
Speaker 1: either them or to their friends, We're never gonna fully
25:41
Speaker 1: know the extent, but we're still dealing with all these problems,
25:45
Speaker 1: and you know they The greatest thing that was done
25:48
Speaker 1: to come back Corona was when I remember coming back
25:50
Speaker 1: from the Eastern Shore, were someone who was a high
25:52
Speaker 1: ranking States Department official who was in charge of stopping
25:56
Speaker 1: to travel from China. That was the smartest thing that
25:59
Speaker 1: the admitsustration did, knowing that this had been leaked, knowing
26:02
Speaker 1: that this was a serious virus. And remember when that happened.
26:06
Speaker 1: When when when that happened? And again I go back
26:09
Speaker 1: to remind people, when that happened, people said that Donald
26:13
Speaker 1: Trump was a racist, cenophobic and that he was that
26:16
Speaker 1: this was back to the days of basically putting Chinese
26:21
Speaker 1: people in camps in World War Two, and said that
26:24
Speaker 1: this is how racist Donald Trump is. And in fact
26:28
Speaker 1: it was probably one of the smartest moves he ever
26:30
Speaker 1: made his entire presidency. Yeah, you know, he likes to
26:34
Speaker 1: talk about, you know, fast tracking the shots to the market,
26:39
Speaker 1: which I think was an amazing feet operation warp speed
26:42
Speaker 1: was an amazing thing of cutting through the breaucracy. Unfortunately,
26:46
Speaker 1: those shots are quite controversial now that the greatest thing
26:51
Speaker 1: Donald Trump did, besides the moving the bureaucracy was just
26:54
Speaker 1: being realistic about where this was resulting from. And now
26:58
Speaker 1: all these years later to have see and then reporting
27:01
Speaker 1: that it came from the Wuhan Lab. After those of
27:04
Speaker 1: us who said it at the time, we're canceled from
27:06
Speaker 1: social media. We're told producers would get inside your ear
27:09
Speaker 1: and say, you're not allowed to say that. That's a
27:10
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory. You know, I you know, maybe I am
27:13
Speaker 1: a conspiracy theorist, Ben because it seems like everything they
27:16
Speaker 1: told me was a conspiracy the last few years turned
27:18
Speaker 1: out to be true. Yeah, all it all became true.
27:22
Speaker 1: This I do believe Matt is going to be a
27:24
Speaker 1: really important issue at SEEPAC this year. Every every year
27:29
Speaker 1: when I go to see Pack, I always just think
27:32
Speaker 1: back and I think to myself, the next Republican nominee
27:36
Speaker 1: and quite possibly the next president United States of America
27:38
Speaker 1: is here in this building and getting up on stage
27:42
Speaker 1: and talking how important of an issue do you think
27:46
Speaker 1: COVID is going to be in this presidential field and
27:52
Speaker 1: debate talking about it, Because it's not just COVID, it's
27:56
Speaker 1: really about the role of government in our lives and
28:00
Speaker 1: freedom to run our restaurants. So we want to have
28:02
Speaker 1: our kids educated. I mean the list is significant. Yeah,
28:08
Speaker 1: and we and we can't forget that, Like the whole
28:10
Speaker 1: world changed and our country changed because people really did
28:14
Speaker 1: get out of broken blue bankrupt cities and states because
28:19
Speaker 1: they realized, you know, people like me, we live in
28:21
Speaker 1: blue areas and we say, well, there's a water's edge
28:23
Speaker 1: to politics here. I might disagree with my neighbor, but
28:25
Speaker 1: we can still have a glasshomore low and be friendly.
28:28
Speaker 1: And then next thing you know, they were reporting you
28:29
Speaker 1: to the cost because you weren't wearing your mask, and
28:32
Speaker 1: it became to get it began to get dangerous. And
28:35
Speaker 1: then you realize, I can't tell you how many people
28:37
Speaker 1: left because they couldn't send their kids to a school
28:40
Speaker 1: that would open, you know, sadly, even the Catholic schools
28:42
Speaker 1: closed and so but you could go to red states
28:45
Speaker 1: and you could see that churches were open and schools
28:48
Speaker 1: were open, and people were more understanding of the fact
28:52
Speaker 1: that you didn't want to live in fear of the virus.
28:54
Speaker 1: So you know the fact that California lost one congressional seat.
28:58
Speaker 1: I think they probably should have lost four, but they
29:00
Speaker 1: lost one congressional seat. Texas picked up two, Florida picked
29:03
Speaker 1: up one. What you saw is red states picking up
29:05
Speaker 1: states and blue states losing congressional seats, not just on
29:08
Speaker 1: the virus, but that was a big driver to it.
29:10
Speaker 1: And I think that's the big dynamic in this country.
29:13
Speaker 1: The fact is is this red state. Every poll shows you.
29:16
Speaker 1: Red state people are happier, their economies are more vibrant,
29:21
Speaker 1: they tend to be more religious, and they're driving our
29:25
Speaker 1: society and our economy. And need you look at the
29:27
Speaker 1: blue states, they're breaking down worse. I don't wish them it,
29:30
Speaker 1: but I mean it's the fact. Well you look right
29:33
Speaker 1: now at what we're just saying. With this recession, we
29:37
Speaker 1: are seeing inflation getting hotter, even as they've raised interest rates.
29:41
Speaker 1: Now it looks like they're gonna raising interest rates for
29:44
Speaker 1: quite some time. And this is all because of really
29:48
Speaker 1: the COVID spending, the amount of money that was printed
29:51
Speaker 1: by our government with all of the COVID relief, all
29:55
Speaker 1: the COVID money, all the cash and the abuse. We're
29:58
Speaker 1: talking about hundreds of bi millions of dollars they believe
30:01
Speaker 1: that was given out improperly to people with fake COVID claims,
30:05
Speaker 1: people getting rich knowing that the government wasn't going to
30:08
Speaker 1: be watching these things, and people taking advantage of the system,
30:12
Speaker 1: and then we saw people get addicted to, like you said,
30:15
Speaker 1: a lazy lifestyle of I should be able to work
30:17
Speaker 1: for home forever. I should be able to work from
30:19
Speaker 1: home and only go to the office two days a week.
30:22
Speaker 1: And then not just that, the toll it took on
30:24
Speaker 1: our kids. We've seen the data. It's very clear it
30:27
Speaker 1: was damning to the future of children. From from an
30:34
Speaker 1: academic standpoint, there are kids that lost two years of
30:38
Speaker 1: academics that they will never get back. Teachers are now
30:41
Speaker 1: talking about how far behind kids are in school. A
30:44
Speaker 1: lot of them say it's at least two years behind.
30:46
Speaker 1: They're calling them COVID kids, the ones that were born
30:50
Speaker 1: when they were young. Matt. I mean, my twins were
30:52
Speaker 1: COVID kids. And you miss the opportunity to even drop
30:55
Speaker 1: them off at school, or drop them off at mother's
30:59
Speaker 1: day out, or drop them off and it's Sunday school
31:01
Speaker 1: class and the nursery for a couple of years because
31:05
Speaker 1: of the lockdowns, and so then when they're older and
31:08
Speaker 1: you try to drop them off, they lose their minds
31:11
Speaker 1: because they've never experienced us before because three years they
31:15
Speaker 1: were locked up. We shot things down. We didn't shut
31:18
Speaker 1: down during World War Two. It's an amazing thing. And
31:22
Speaker 1: you know, I think about some of my older kids.
31:24
Speaker 1: One of my kids who's in college, who's going to
31:26
Speaker 1: be with me at teapack starting on Wednesday. You know,
31:29
Speaker 1: she didn't have a prom. There wasn't football, there wasn't basketball,
31:34
Speaker 1: there weren't stock hops, there was nothing for two years.
31:37
Speaker 1: It basically wiped out these high school experiences. And you know,
31:41
Speaker 1: you look back at your high school, maybe you don't
31:43
Speaker 1: remember everything, but those are the kinds of things that
31:44
Speaker 1: kind of help make you who you are having those experiences.
31:48
Speaker 1: And the whole generation of kids got used to just
31:51
Speaker 1: on a Friday night, you just stayed in the house.
31:52
Speaker 1: You stayed in the basicly you played video games. It's
31:54
Speaker 1: a terrible thing, and you know, we shouldn't replicate it.
31:58
Speaker 1: And why are we talking about it? And why will
32:00
Speaker 1: it be a big issue in the election? Ben Is
32:03
Speaker 1: there's a lot of us who feel like if we
32:04
Speaker 1: don't talk about it and get people to sign on
32:07
Speaker 1: the dotted line that will never do this again, that
32:09
Speaker 1: they will do it again. Yeah, no doubt about it.
32:12
Speaker 1: Let's talk about SEPACK this year. You're back in in
32:17
Speaker 1: the DC area. It was if you had to move
32:19
Speaker 1: it down to Florida. This is going to be a
32:21
Speaker 1: really big year, i think for SEPACK, seeing what the
32:24
Speaker 1: Republican field shapes up to be. How can people get
32:28
Speaker 1: tickets still if they want to come in? What days
32:30
Speaker 1: are at this week? Okay, so it's all starting activism.
32:34
Speaker 1: Trading starts on Wednesday, and then the event starts in
32:38
Speaker 1: Earnest on Thursday, and we'll go through Saturday evening. Everyone
32:41
Speaker 1: can go to sepac dot org to get their tickets.
32:44
Speaker 1: There are still tickets available. But I'm a little bit
32:47
Speaker 1: shocked that the demand has been so high, because there's
32:51
Speaker 1: a lot of people in Red states who don't want
32:52
Speaker 1: to come back to DC. But then I've also been
32:56
Speaker 1: surprised that so many do want to come back. And
32:58
Speaker 1: I think part of that is, you know, it's our
33:00
Speaker 1: capital city too, and you know there's there's this seating
33:04
Speaker 1: of all these big cities to the socialists and to
33:07
Speaker 1: the crazies, and I think that's a very dangerous thing.
33:10
Speaker 1: The nation's capital, it's got to be all of our capital.
33:12
Speaker 1: All of us have to be able to feel safe
33:14
Speaker 1: to walk the streets and that our politics shouldn't land
33:17
Speaker 1: us in jail, etc. Etc. So I think there's a
33:20
Speaker 1: pushback coming up from Americans who love America. You know,
33:25
Speaker 1: it really hit meet bed. Not only do we have
33:27
Speaker 1: this problem with our southern border where you have five
33:29
Speaker 1: million people that across illegally. You see, you know, all
33:32
Speaker 1: the effects of the cartels which are now controlling the
33:34
Speaker 1: north of Mexico. We had a deepack in Mexico, in
33:37
Speaker 1: Mexico City, and you know the Mexicans, Mexico City is
33:40
Speaker 1: safer than people realize, but the borders very dangerous place.
33:43
Speaker 1: And that's making America a very dangerous place. And that's
33:46
Speaker 1: why you're seeing all these changes across southern Texas. You know,
33:49
Speaker 1: towns that were reliably Democrat or voting Republican because nobody
33:53
Speaker 1: likes crime and nobody likes to have a bunch of
33:56
Speaker 1: people in their community that came here illegally. And then
33:59
Speaker 1: you have this, you know, the Chinese drones and whatever
34:03
Speaker 1: those were, those those balloons, and the fact that China
34:07
Speaker 1: seems to feel like it can do whatever it wants
34:10
Speaker 1: during the Biden years, to like probe our weaknesses and
34:13
Speaker 1: see how we will respond, and our responses have not
34:17
Speaker 1: been stellar. And we have a military that cares more
34:20
Speaker 1: about woke training of the troops and not teaching people
34:23
Speaker 1: to destroy things and kill people. You know, it's a
34:27
Speaker 1: very very dangerous time. And you put this all together,
34:29
Speaker 1: you teach to look at what our kids are being
34:31
Speaker 1: taught in too many schools to hate America, to grab
34:35
Speaker 1: on the sixteen nineteen, to think that all Republicans are racist,
34:38
Speaker 1: even though we were the party that was established to
34:41
Speaker 1: abolished slavery and give those former slaves their full civil rights.
34:45
Speaker 1: I mean, these are parts of our history that people
34:47
Speaker 1: just need to know, and it's not being taught. And
34:50
Speaker 1: now we have the gender confusion everything else on top
34:52
Speaker 1: of all that other insanity. So it's time to start
34:55
Speaker 1: protecting our kids, protecting our families, protecting our community, and
35:00
Speaker 1: protecting this country. And you know, we got the house
35:03
Speaker 1: back and a lot of those heroes are going to
35:04
Speaker 1: be there at Seapack. I think we got more, We
35:07
Speaker 1: got more territory to take back, and I think we will.
35:09
Speaker 1: I feel hopeful about it. Yeah, you talk about a
35:11
Speaker 1: lot of those heroes are going to be there also.
35:13
Speaker 1: Senator Cruise and I will be doing a live taping
35:17
Speaker 1: a Verdict Our podcast on Thursday. So if you are
35:20
Speaker 1: going to be at Seapack, makes you check Senator Cruise
35:23
Speaker 1: and I as will be on the main stage there
35:24
Speaker 1: for that Thursday afternoon. Let me ask you this about
35:28
Speaker 1: the Republican Party and the concertive movement and is it
35:31
Speaker 1: changing in the right direction Matt. Paul Ryan has come
35:34
Speaker 1: out and saying tonight he will skip the Republican National
35:38
Speaker 1: Convention the RNC if Trump wins at twenty twenty four nomination.
35:43
Speaker 1: The former House Speaker said he won't even go, even
35:46
Speaker 1: if it's in Wisconsin. When you hear people say things
35:50
Speaker 1: like that, specifically, Paul Ryan, what's your response. We've already
35:54
Speaker 1: been through this. You remember there was the whole never
35:56
Speaker 1: Trump movement. It started at Seapack at two thousand team
36:00
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. It was all about, you know, if we
36:03
Speaker 1: all band together and stop Trump, he won't get the nomination.
36:07
Speaker 1: It actually propelled him to get the nomination. So, you know,
36:10
Speaker 1: Paul Ryan and I have been friends a long time,
36:13
Speaker 1: but it mystifies me how he just seems so ham
36:16
Speaker 1: handed on politics. It's like, if you hate Trump, the
36:19
Speaker 1: last thing a former Speaker should do is come out
36:21
Speaker 1: and say I would never vote for him, because what
36:24
Speaker 1: he's saying is I want to make sure that whoever
36:28
Speaker 1: is running, if it's Joe Biden, becomes the president again.
36:30
Speaker 1: I mean, I remember my daughters told me back when
36:34
Speaker 1: all these conversations were having before in twenty and sixteen,
36:37
Speaker 1: why would anybody do anything to elect Hillary Clinton to
36:39
Speaker 1: be the president. And you know, it's a real they're
36:42
Speaker 1: breaking the bargain that we have, which is you go
36:44
Speaker 1: through a rough primary and you get to the end
36:45
Speaker 1: and one person wins, and you know, of us get
36:49
Speaker 1: behind that person. And when you have leading Republicans saying
36:53
Speaker 1: they won't honor that process, you wonder why people hate
36:56
Speaker 1: the party so much. They hate the party because those
36:59
Speaker 1: inside are full of kaka. Yeah. Donald Trump will be
37:03
Speaker 1: at Seapack again. Correct, he will be at Seapack. He'll
37:07
Speaker 1: be speaking on Saturday. You know we're gonna have the
37:10
Speaker 1: straw pole, and you know it's a real open question
37:14
Speaker 1: on how that will come out. Everybody who is there
37:17
Speaker 1: is going to have a chance to vote. You'll have
37:18
Speaker 1: a chance to vote, Ben and you should vote, and
37:21
Speaker 1: we'll see where the conservative activists are it's always an
37:24
Speaker 1: interesting part of the event. Lastly, Joe Biden, his wife,
37:30
Speaker 1: the First Lady, made it clear. She says they're basically
37:32
Speaker 1: getting close to announcing he's running for reelection. Is that
37:37
Speaker 1: something that excites you to know that there's going to
37:39
Speaker 1: be this dumb to stick with somebody that clearly is
37:43
Speaker 1: so unpopular, is not in charge of things, failing on
37:46
Speaker 1: the foreign stage on foreign policy issues the way he is,
37:51
Speaker 1: and just the cognitive decline. If they're dumb enough to
37:54
Speaker 1: stick with him, for me, I say, fine, knock yourself out. Guys.
37:59
Speaker 1: You know, I think that I think there's a growing
38:01
Speaker 1: problem that the Democrats are able to elect people to
38:04
Speaker 1: office who are just not clearly physically and mentally up
38:07
Speaker 1: to the task. You look at Fetterman in Pennsylvania. You
38:10
Speaker 1: look at Katie Hobbs, who ran for the governor in
38:13
Speaker 1: Arizona without having any policy positions or doing any events.
38:16
Speaker 1: You have Joe Biden, you got to the presidency by
38:19
Speaker 1: staying in his basement. I mean, after a while, this
38:22
Speaker 1: is going this is kind of a joke. It's not
38:24
Speaker 1: a funny joke, and I think it's actually a pretty
38:26
Speaker 1: serious problem we have in our democracy. That how is
38:29
Speaker 1: it possible these by these posts can actually win by
38:32
Speaker 1: not doing anything? And and I just don't think it's
38:36
Speaker 1: easier to get there's a Democrat than a Republican. That's
38:39
Speaker 1: the truth. I mean, if you want to want, if
38:41
Speaker 1: you just want to win, run as a Democrat, because
38:43
Speaker 1: you don't even have to be, you know, alive in
38:46
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania to win there. They elected an actual dead person
38:49
Speaker 1: this last election Democrats did. I added the top of
38:52
Speaker 1: the hour break one more time. I want to make
38:54
Speaker 1: sure everybody knows how do you get tickets to seepack
38:56
Speaker 1: if and there's still some available. Tickets are still available
38:59
Speaker 1: to go to see dot org. We love to see you.
