China on lockdown as New Virus Explodes! Is Another Pandemic On the Way? · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: I need to start today by warning you about what's
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: happening in China right now.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: This story has been mentioned.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: By a couple in the news, but nowhere is it
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: near the reality of what the situation I'm being told
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: is on the ground in China.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Has matt suited.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Big white men, as they're being described in China have
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: returned to quote disinfect China, as pneumonia is now gripping
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: the nation and they are overrun at their hospitals. This
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: seems to be spreading very quickly in China. The Taiwan
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Ministry of Health and Welfare also on Thursday advised young
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: and elderly citizens, as well as those with weak immune systems,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: to avoid travel altogether to China during its surge of
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: a quote respiratory illness. The Chinese government continues to insist
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: to the rest of the world that it has as
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: the outbreak quote under control, so they are omitting it
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: is an outbreak, But observers there notice that the return
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: of travel restrictions, as well as spraying of public areas
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: with disinfectant techniques Beijing used during the coronavirus pandemic, are
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: all being reinstated quickly. The Taiwanese Ministry of Health and
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Wellness also put out a new warning, issuing a statement
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: after the Weekly Cabinet Meeting that recommended avoiding unnecessary travel
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: to China, Hong Kong, and Macau. The Ministry advised travelers
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: who do visit those destinations to number one receive flu
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: and luhan coronavirus vaccinations before departing. Now you won't be
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: shocked at what I'm about to tell you, and that
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: is there's already debate among some epidemiologists who are pointing
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: the finger at each other, saying one side's overreacting, the
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: other sides not taking it seriously enough off the threat
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: coming from China. Reuters actually quoted some epidemiologists who thought
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: that Taiwan's travel advisory could keyword, could be excessive and counterproductive,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: while other epidemiologists who spoke to Reuters said that they
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: sought as a prudent precaution because of China's history of
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: lying to the world. An epidemiologist the Health and Sustainable
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Development Foundation said the advisory would lead the public to
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: mistakenly believe they would not contract respiratory illness as long
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: as they did not go to China. Or travel anywhere
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: around China. The problem is. Another professor of epidemiology at
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Community Health said this in New Delhi, travel restrictions for
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: respiratory infections are not an effective measure for interpreting transmission.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Some public health researchers said the travel advisory was more
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: than reasonable, saying Taiwan was also likely to experience a
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: surge in respiratory illness in winter and following the lifting
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: of pandemic restrictions, saying quote, they would be cautious not
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to hasten it by overseas travels Now, this is the
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: point I want you to understand. We as a world,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: we as a country, learned the enormous cost of believing
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: what China says. We understand now what happens when the
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Chinese lied to us during the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic. The
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Chinese government opposed travel restrictions imposed by anyone else. Remember,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: they also treated them as insults to quote. The communist
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: regime while freely imposing its own lockdowns and travel restrictions
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: whenever it felt it needed to, even locking up their
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: own citizens. And if someone got COVID, they would actually
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: come and rip you from your home. And put you
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: in what would be the equivalent of a COVID concentration camp.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: The Chinese government didn't allow people to travel for months
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: on end, some places more than a year. The Chinese
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: government also has a history of covering up the severity
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: of disease outbreaks outside of COVID. That's right, even before
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic. Reuters actually noted this in their articles,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: saying the memory of China covering up the SARS outbreak
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: of two thousand and two and two thousand and three
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: looms large in Taiwan's memory. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Whang
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: We've been insisted on Thursday that the restiratory illness outbreak
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: and again they're agreeing it's an outbreak in China is
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: under controlling. Is nothing more than a slightly more severe
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: cold and flu season than usual, quote unquote. This is
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: not a question about foreign affairs, Wang snapped when a
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: reporter asked about Taiwan's travel advisory. It is safe to
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: travel to do business and study here in China, and
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: there's no need to worry. Raise your hand if you
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: don't believe the Chinese government. Taiwan by the way a
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: sovereign nation separated from China. Don't worry, China's trying to
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: change that while we have a week president. China's state
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: run Global Times even admitted on Wednesday that hospitals are
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: struggling to cope with the surgeon cases of respiratory illness
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: in children. It also claimed the health system has not
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: been overwhelmed as it did during the early stages of
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: the fight against the Wuhan corona virus. The Global Times again,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: this is the propaganda. The Chinese Communist government said. Chinese
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: pediatric hospitals have made improvements that help them deal with
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: a surge of sick children, including increase of more than
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: fifty percent of beds and medical staff to handle the crisis.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: So they're even saying, by their own numbers that this
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: is a crisis and they've had to increase the number
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: of beds and medical staff to handle it by fifty percent.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: That is significant, folks.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: One hospital administrator told The Global Times his facility had
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: reactivated its coronavirus treatment wards to accommodate the surge in
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: the respiratory virus cases. Now, notice we haven't heard a
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: damn word from the White House on this. Notice that
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: we haven't heard anything from the State Department. Notice we
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: haven't heard anything from Joe Biden or the Vice President personally.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Notice that no one at the White House has even
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: mentioned or try to get it on your radar screen
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: of what we're talking about right now. And the real
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: question is why my theory, because you have a president
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: of the United States of America that's compromised by China.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: The amount of money that the Chinese have sent into
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: the coffers of the Biden crime family is so incredibly
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: damning that with one phone call, with one text message,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: they could say to the President United it's America. Whatever
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: you do, you better not mention what's going on right
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: now in China. Do I believe, by the way, and
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: this is another really important point, Do I believe that
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: this is another outbreak like COVID? I have no idea,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: because there's nothing that I can believe that comes out
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: of the Chinese government.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Do I believe this is they are lying that this is.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Just a little bit of an elevated and that's it
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: scenario here of a common cold season and flu. I
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: believe they're lying to all of us on that. And
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: if you're having to increase your hospital beds and staff
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: by fifty percent. Don't tell me that you quote have
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: it under control, which is what the Chinese government has
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: just said to the world. Now, this isn't just an
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: America problem. This is the entire world's problem, because if
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: any one country gets it perfectly right, it doesn't matter
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: if other countries get it wrong. We saw that from
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: what happened with COVID and the spread all over the world.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: We saw that even the most extreme lockdowns didn't work
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: because there's still people coming in and out of different countries,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: and they're going to bring whatever disease it is to
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: America if in fact it is some sort of pandemic
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: two point zero, I have no doubt in my mind.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I have no.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Doubt, no doubt that they would lie and they don't
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: care how many people die this time, because by their
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: own estimates, last time, we lost millions of people in
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: the world to COVID, And guess what, we won't even
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: get a real exam, a real report from our own government,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: much less than the Chinese admitting it came from the
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Wuhan Institute of Virology. I put this on your radar
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: screen to just give you this information so you can
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: decide what you want to do with it. Would a
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: flu shot help I have no idea, but if you
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: have a respiratory respiratory issues, you need to be careful
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: right now because this is coming. Whatever is in China
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: right now is coming here because we have not done
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: anything to protect ourselves from China, and this administration refuses
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: to protect all of us now. The Communist Global Times,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: that is, the newspaper of the Communist government, said this
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: in their paper this morning. While some pediatric hospitals may
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: have long cues and limited ward availability, overall medical resources
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: have not reached an overwhelmed state. Hospitals have learned from
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: their experiences with COVID nineteen and have deployed and developed
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: strategies to prioritize severe cases and classified treatment based on symptoms. Now,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: this is the complete opposite of what you were saying
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: on Chinese social media. Chinese social media, a lot of
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: it banned, but people are able to get on through
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: different ways and channels. Is filling up social media with
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: photos and videos of anguished parents and sick children packed
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: into overcrowded waiting rooms all over the country. The Global Times, however,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: insistent hospitals are taking appropriate steps to handle the case load,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: and the Chinese Communist paper attribute the horror stories about
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: overflowing waiting rooms filled with sick children to parents quote
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: who mistakenly in san on bringing their kids to hospital
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: for minor illnesses instead of using community clinics. So it's
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: the parent's fault, that's what the Global Times is now saying.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: In China, Chinese doctors told the Global Times they see
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: no evidence of novel pathogens like the Wuhan coronavirus and
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: the current outbreak just a surge, they say, of pneumonia,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: which they portrayed as a lingering hangover from the coronavirus lockdowns,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: implying that they're somehow related. Some epidemiologists in the US
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: have likewise said they're concerned because they believe this is
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: an exceptionally busy cold and flu season might be due
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: to coronavirus restrictions preventing people from developing normal natural immunities.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Oh wait, so wait, they're now encouraging and saying that
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: natural immunity is actually a thing. Well, isn't that fun
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: to see from those that were saying that you couldn't
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: rely on that and you must get boosted and then boosted,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: and then boosted and then boosted again with the COVID
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: nineteen what do they call it. If you get it,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: you're never going to get sick again, right, You're not
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: going to die. Yeah, that's how they sold us on
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: that COVID nineteen vaccine.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: None of it was true.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Finally, the South China Milorning posts reported Tuesday that some
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: coronavirus control measures are beginning to reappear in China, especially
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: now at schools, childcare institutions, and nursing homes. Residents of
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: the Chinese city of sean Hey have posted videos of
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: hazmat suited workers spraying clouds of disinfecting over the classrooms
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: and city streets. And that's a tactic China developed during
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: the later stages of the pandemic, when entire cities were
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: locked down and terrified residents were sealed into their apartments.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Literally, some of the doors.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: To get out of their apartments were welded shut. That's
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: now what's happening in China. Some Chinese social media users
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: were horrified by the return of the what they referred
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: to in this in the translated version, the Big White Men,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: a turn that became popular during the pandemic for teams
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: of government and four ur there's claud and bulky White
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: has Matt suits. Now they're back, one saying, oh my god,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: it's almost twenty twenty four and this familiar scene is back.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: The Chinese Communist Party also quoted the Chinese National Health
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Commission spokesman calling for quote effective epidemic prevention and control measures,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: saying it's key in locations with dense populations such as schools,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: childcare institution, nursing home.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: So, in other words, get you used to it.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: This includes, they say, minimizing personal movement and visits, implying
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: that the lockdowns will come back.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: As all that's happening, there's also something else that's happening
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: in this country, and this is going to be a
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: big victory. But first I want to tell you about
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: a company that I really want you to check out.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: For ten years, Patriot Mobile has been America's only Christian
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: conservative wireless provider.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: And when I say the only one, I mean it.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: They're the only one.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: They make a huge difference every time that you pay
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: your bill because they actually get back to conservative causes
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: and organization to help you stand up for what you
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: believe in. While you're paying a bill, you're going to
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: have anyways. This is the part that I love about
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile. They're making a difference. Every time you pay
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: your bill, every time you make a phone call, every
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: time that you send a text message, Patriot Mobile actually
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: gives money back to protect First and Second Amendment rights,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: to protect the lives of unborn children. And that's what
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: they're doing right now is they celebrate their tenth anniversary.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: If you switch right now to Patriot Mobile, they are
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: going to give a donation to help protect life and
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: to help mothers choose life to an organization that does
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: everything they can to protect the lives of unborn children.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Then every month when you pay your bill, they're going
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: to continue to support the causes that I just mentioned.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: And this is exactly why you need to make the switch.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: If you're tired of woke companies, switch your cell phone
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile. Whether you are a business, a small business,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: or just a family, you can switch and they make
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: switching easy. They have a one hundred percent US based
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: call center making switching extremely easy. You're gonna get nationwide coverage,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: unlimited talking texts, and usually save real money. On your
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: bill nine seven to two Patriot. It's nine seven to
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: two Patriot, nine seven to two Patriot. Or go online
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: to Patriot Mobile dot com slash ben. That's Patriot mobile
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: dot com slash ben or nine seven to two Patriot.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Ken Paxton, the Attorney General from Texas, put out a
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: tweet earlier today accompanied by a copy of the letter
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: that he put out, saying this, I am suing Pfizer
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: for misrepresenting COVID nineteen vaccine efficiency and conspiring to censor
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: public discourse. This from the Attorney General of Texas, saying
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxson had sued Pfizer Inc. For
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: unlawfully misrepresenting the effectiveness of the company's COVID nineteen vaccine
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: and attempting to censor public discussion of the product. Peiser
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: engaged in false, deceptive, and misleading acts and practices by
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: making unsupported claims regarding the company's COVID nineteen vaccine and
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: violation of the Texas to Deceptive Trade Practices Act the
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: pharmaceutical companies widespread misrepresentation. The letter goes on to say
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: that its vaccine possesses ninety five percent efficiency against infection,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: was highly misleading that metric represented a calculation of the
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: so called relative risk reduction quote unquote for vaccinated individuals
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: in Peiser's initial two month clinical trial results. FDA publications
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: indicate relative risk reduction is a misleading statistic that unduly
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: influences consumer choice.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: Peiser, the letter says, was also put.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: On notice at that time that vaccine protection could not
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: accurately be predicted beyond two months. Nevertheless, what happened, Peiser
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: fostered a misleading impression that vaccine protection was durable and
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: withheld from the public the information that undermined its claims
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: about the duration of the protection from the vaccine, and
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: despite the fact that its clinical trials failed to measure
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: whether the vaccine protects against transmission. Peiser also, the letter says,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: embarked on a campaign to intimidate the public into getting
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: the vaccine as a necessary measure to protect their loved ones.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: In fact, KEM. Paxson says in this letter, Preiser's product
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: failed to live up to the company's representation. COVID nineteen
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: cases increase after widespread vaccine anistration in some areas saw
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: a greater percentage of death from COVID nineteen among the
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: vaccinated population than the unvaccinated. When the failure of its
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: product became apparent, fis are then pivoted to silencing tellers,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: the lawsuit states.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: The lawsuit notes, quote.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: How did Piser respond when it became apparent that its
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: vaccine was failing and the viability of its cash cow
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: was threatened? Question mark by intimidating those spreading the truth
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: and by conspiring to censor its critic.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: The lawsuit states.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Fiser labeled as criminals those who spread facts about the vaccine,
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: It accused them of spreading quote misinformation, and it coers
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: social media platforms to silence prominent truth tellers. The lawsuit continues, quote,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: we are pursuing justice for the people of Texas, many
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: of whom were or coerced by tyrriical vaccine mandates to
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: take a defective product sold by lies. That is the
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: quote from the Texas Attorney General Ken Paxson saying, quote
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: the facts are clear. Pfeiser did not tell the truth
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: about their COVID nineteen vaccines. Whereas the Biden administration weaponized
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: the pandemic to force illegal public health decrees on the
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: public and enrich pharmaceutical companies. Paxson says, quote, I will
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: use every tool I have to protect our citizens who
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: were misled and harmed.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: By Peiser's action.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: The lawsuit follows the Attorney General Kim Paxson's investigation of
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Pfizer and other vaccine manufacturers announced earlier this year.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: And so this is the first lawsuit. I guess you
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: could say this.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Come out of that again investigation to see what's actually
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: happening here. So when you see the media not covering this,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: remember something. This is the same media that put death
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: counters on TV and never took them off during the
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: campaign season because they wanted you to hate Donald Trump.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: This is the same media that obsessed and went completely
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: psycho and said, you're trying to kill people if you
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: don't get vaccinated. You're trying to kill grandma if you
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: don't get vaccinated. And these are the same people that demanded,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: most importantly that you vaccinate your kids no matter what,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: and wanted to make it where you couldn't even put
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: your kid to any school unless they were vaccinated. Now,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: the other question that you need to ask yourself is this,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: can you trust the US government to tell you the truth?
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: Can you trust the US government to be honest with
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: you about what's going on. You look at this lawsuit
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: from the atroginal kem PAS ensuing Phiser for misrepresenting COVID
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: nineteen vaccine efficiency and censoring and conspiring to censor public discourse.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: The question then becomes, can you trust the government to
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: protect you? Let me tell you about a man who
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: testified before Congress today. There's a man by the name
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: of Shellenberger. He is a man that knows a lot
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: about the medium. He's also one of those that learned
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: about the Twitter files and put out some of that information.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: And he was actually talking before Congress about the US
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: and the United Kingdom, the UK military contractors that deployed
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: what they described as sophisticated psychological operations and disinformation tactics,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: specifically against the American people. I want you to hear
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: his testimony. You're going to want to take notes because
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: this testimony rocked that conference today, that that room in Washington.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I have a feeling no one in the media is
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: going to tell you this though.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: Nine months ago, I testified and provided evidence to the
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: sub committee about the existence of a censorship industrial complex,
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: a network of government agencies, including the Department of homeland security,
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: government contractors, and big tech media platforms that conspired to
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: censor ordinary Americans and elected officials alike for.
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: Holding disfavored views.
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: I regret to inform the subcommittee today that the scope,
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: power and law breaking of the censorship industrial complex are
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: even worse than we had realized.
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: Back in March.
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: Two days ago, my colleagues and I published the first
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: batch of internal files from the Cyber Threat Intelligence League,
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: which show US and UK military contractors working in twenty
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: nineteen and twenty twenty to both censor and turn sophisticated
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: psychological operations and disinformation tactics developed abroad.
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: Against the American people.
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: Many insist that all that we identified in the Twitter files,
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: the Facebook files, and the CTI files were legal activities
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: by social media platforms to take down content that fire
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: violated the terms of service Facebook acts. Formerly Twitter and
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: other big tech companies are privately owned people point out
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: and free to censor content, and government officials are free
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: to point out wrong information, they argue, but the First
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: Amendment prohibits the government from a bridging freedom of speech.
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: The Supreme Court has ruled that the.
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: Government may not induce, encourage, or promote private persons to
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: accomplish what is constitutionally forbidden to accomplish, and there's now
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: a large body of evidence proving that the government did
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: precisely that. What's more, the whistleblower who delivered the CTIL
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: files to US says that its leader, a quote unquote
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: former British intelligence analyst, was quote unquote in the room
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: at the Obama White House in twenty seventeen when she
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: received the instructions to create a counter disinformation project to
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: quote stop a repeat of twenty sixteen.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: Let's just stop there.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: What this journalist is describing is a full blown effort
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: from the US the UK to deploy what he describes
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: as sophisticated psychological operations and disinformation tactics against the American people.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Your tax dollars would be paying for this to happen.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Listen to the second part of what he has to say.
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: The US Department of Homeland Security, Cybersecurity and Information Security
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: Agency SISA has been a been the center of gravity
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: for much of the censorship, with the National Science Foundation
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: financing the development of censorship and disinformation tools, and other
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: federal government agencies plan a supportive role. Emails from siss's
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: NGO and Social Media partners show that SISA created the
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: Election Integrity Partnership EIP and twenty twenty, which involved the
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: Stanford Internet Observatory and other US government contractors EPN. Its successor,
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: the Virality Project, urged Twitter, Facebook, and other platforms to
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: censor social media posts by ordinary citizens and elected officials.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Alike, let's just stop there.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: So he's saying right now, whistleblowing that there were actual
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: government programs and plots that were taking place, and those
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: programs and this plot was to silence anyone that said
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: anything that the United States government didn't like. So they
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: would go to social media companies and what would they do.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: They would tell them to shut it down. They would
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: tell them to silence, they would tell them not to
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: say anything. They would tell them to be quiet. You
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: understand this now, right? Like you get it? Do you
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: understand exactly what they're saying here? This is very clear? Okay,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: this is very very very very very very very clear.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: The United States government was using your tax dollars to
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: then conspire to against you, to keep you quiet and
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: to shut you up. Your government did this back in
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: twenty sixteen and to present day, trying to shut you up,
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: and anything that you were saying that they didn't like,
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: they would then undermine you to make sure yet again,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: that you were shut up. This comes after what I
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: exposed yesterday, which is that Jack Smith, the Special Council,
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: is a guy who's such a psychopath. He demanded that
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: Twitter give him info on all Americans who interacted with
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump on Twitter. In this search warrant that was
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: sent to x formerly Twitter, they requested a massive swath
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: of information about the counts of former President Donald Trump,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: as well as information on the millions of millions of
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: accounts that interacted with even those that liked to tweet
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: by Trump in the timeframe of October twenty twenty to
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: January twenty twenty one.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: This is an enemy's list.
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: This, by the way, goes exactly back to what I
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: was just saying. They will stop at nothing to silence you.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: They will stop at nothing to shut you up. And
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: this individual has witnessed it firsthand.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: That's not all that he said.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: I also want you to listen to Representative Dan Goldman
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: get humiliated as he tried to defend the Biden Rezimes
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: censorship tactics on stories.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: That didn't make them look good.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: At the same hearing, this is again a hardcore leftist congressman.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Congressman Dan Goldman.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: Talked about the Hunter Biden laptop and how the FBI
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: knew it existed. You are aware, of course, that the laptop,
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: so to speak, was actually that was published in the
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: New York Post, was actually a hard drive that the
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: New York Post admitted here was not authenticated as real.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: It was not the laptop the FBI had. You're aware
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: of that, right.
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: It was the same contents.
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: How do you know, because because it's the same, I mean,
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: you would have.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: To authenticate it to the same content.
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: You have no idea, you know, hard drives manipulated.
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: Are you suggesting the New York Post participating in a
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: conspiracy to construct the contents of the Hunter Biden and laptop?
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: No, sir, the problem is that hard drives can be
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: manipulated by Rudy Giuliani or Rush.
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: What's the evidence that then that happens. Well, there is
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: actual evidence of it. But the point is, so you're
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: engaged in a conspiracy.
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: I'm glad you agree with me, mister Schallenberger, that transparency
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: is the most important thing. And my last question for
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: you is do you think it would be transparent if
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: Hunter Biden came to this Congress and testified in a
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: public hearing, and more transparent than if he testified privately.
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: It's I mean literally, I've never thought about that. I
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: have no idea. You never thought about that.
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: Public testimony testimony?
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: Are you familiar with?
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: The first Congress shall take no action to abridge freedom
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: of speech?
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: And that's what you described, mister Selimberg.
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: Is thirteen percent censorship still censorship, absolutely and the other
• 28:05
  Speaker 6: eighty seven percent is what we call the chilling effect
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: that the courts have long recognized that they engaged in.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: That is the problem.
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: There's a brought up by the way part of the
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: operation cons part of the operation was to change the
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: terms of service. So you see them constantly trying to
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: change the terms of service.
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: You see them.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: It was thirty five percent of of the URLs that
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: were screendyep were labeled.
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: Removed or soft blocked. That's all forms of censorship. That
• 28:32
  Speaker 5: censorship is not just removing.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: But sixty five percent were not.
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: So how can the government be so coerce?
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: Is the first.
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: Amendments that's about par for the court. Government amendments say
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: the government can censor.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: They're not censuring.
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: They're flagging in the social media companies.
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: Under a first Amendment.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Or it's not the First Amendment.
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: It's the terms of service, as you said, and they
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: are flagging it for the social media companies to make
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: their own decisions. That is not the First Amendment, that
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: is the terms of service.
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: Well, just seeing imersman, you're an attorney. You know that
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: the four federal judges have already ruled that.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: And I know that it's on appeal in front of
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: the Supreme Court right now.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Nothing at all.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: And if you don't think the media is trying to
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: cover all of this up, I we all of this up.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: I'll leave you with this representative Jasmine for Us, that's
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: her Twitter handle, said this on Joy Reid's show about
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: evidence of the Biden involvement with the foreign business dealings
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: of their son and the rest of the Biden crime family.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Listen to this cover.
• 29:36
  Speaker 7: Up, The business partner said, no, President Biden had anything
• 29:39
  Speaker 7: to do with it. Everyone they've brought in so far
• 29:41
  Speaker 7: that was supposed to be witnesses for the prosecution ended
• 29:44
  Speaker 7: up being witnesses for the defense. Have you seen as
• 29:47
  Speaker 7: a member of this Committee, any evidence that President Biden
• 29:51
  Speaker 7: has any involvement whatsoever in his son's companies are in
• 29:54
  Speaker 7: his businesses.
• 29:54
  Speaker 8: I have not, And as a fishing exposition expedition, you know,
• 29:58
  Speaker 8: one of the things that most people aren't talking about
• 30:00
  Speaker 8: is he not only sent out this subpoena, he sent
• 30:02
  Speaker 8: out a subpoena to the president's brother. He sent out
• 30:05
  Speaker 8: subpoenas as well to Hunter's wife and so many family members.
• 30:10
  Speaker 8: I mean, he is going after their entire family, just
• 30:13
  Speaker 8: looking and hoping that somebody will slip up and say
• 30:16
  Speaker 8: something that will give them a leg to stand on
• 30:18
  Speaker 8: and be able to say, see, we told you. But
• 30:21
  Speaker 8: that's not how.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: The process works.
• 30:22
  Speaker 8: What you're supposed to do is say, you know what,
• 30:25
  Speaker 8: I see something and I need to dig in.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: Further and say it.
• 30:28
  Speaker 8: They're saying, we don't see anything, but if we dig
• 30:30
  Speaker 8: maybe we'll finally find something.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: The business power said, I love that.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: Literally, she just made the point of exactly why James
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Comer and Jim Jordan are looking into this because.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: They saw something.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: And then she lies and says, I've not seen any
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: evidence of Biden's involvement with Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: So explain the checks, explain that the direct payments on
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: the same day that money is coming in from China
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: being transferred from his brother directly to Joe Biden. Explain
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: all that to me. I'm waiting. I can't wait for
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: that response.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: It's amazing.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: You've got a congressman here that's saying that thirty five
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: percent censorship of the American people on social media is
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: nothing to raise an eyebrow at, and that that's totally,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: incompletely normal, that there's nothing wrong with this. Make sure
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: you share this podcast with your family and your friends, please,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: and I will see you back here tomorrow.
