Latest / The Ben Ferguson Podcast / Dangerous Illegal Bio Labs w CCP Ties found in America
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: There is a big story that is happening out on
- 0:03Speaker 1: the West coast, and you may be hearing the words hepatitis, malaria, HIV, TB, ebola.
- 0:10Speaker 1: The list is tied to was shocking California warehouse lab
- 0:16Speaker 1: and what was labeled as a major national security threat
- 0:21Speaker 1: Chinese nationals now being indicted. The House Select Committee report
- 0:26Speaker 1: describes thousands of samples with labeled and unlabeled and encoded vials,
- 0:31Speaker 1: including items labeled HIV, malaria, COVID, plus a freezer that
- 0:38Speaker 1: was labeled with a bola and other concerning materials. Local
- 0:43Speaker 1: reporting about the Las Vegas cases referencing these findings when
- 0:47Speaker 1: describing the similarities between the two now locations that are
- 0:51Speaker 1: tied to one another, one in California and now one
- 0:56Speaker 1: in Las Vegas. Search warrants were executed. We're being to
- 1:00Speaker 1: hold on Saturday a residence in Las Vegas in the
- 1:04Speaker 1: Northeast Valley. Multiple outlets there and the news are describing
- 1:08Speaker 1: the area as well, not that bad and what was
- 1:11Speaker 1: discovered was truly shocking. Here's more of that from Fox
- 1:17Speaker 1: at two.
- 1:17Speaker 2: Or half past the hour. A possible biological lab inside
- 1:20Speaker 2: a Las Vegas home now under investigation. A federal investigation
- 1:25Speaker 2: agenciesing vials of unknown liquids and probing a potential link
- 1:29Speaker 2: to a Chinese national accused of running a similar lab
- 1:33Speaker 2: in California that held deadly pathogens. Urceuenion National correspondent William
- 1:37Speaker 2: Lagenessa's reporting live on this out of Los Angeles for US.
- 1:40Speaker 3: Hello, William well Sander. Two amazing things about this story. One,
- 1:44Speaker 3: the man who owns that Vegas lab. He's a Chinese
- 1:47Speaker 3: scientist linked to the ccp IS and has been in
- 1:50Speaker 3: jail the last three years. Secondly, the lab is not
- 1:54Speaker 3: an FDA licensed facility, but it's in a house in Vegas,
- 1:58Speaker 3: rated Saturday morning by the FBI swat pulling out boxes
- 2:01Speaker 3: of what police believe are hazardous biological agents and pathogens
- 2:06Speaker 3: normally found in a secure university or industrial lab with
- 2:10Speaker 3: air locks designed to prevent an outbreak.
- 2:13Speaker 4: Almost immediately, investigator observed multiple refrigerators, a freezer, and other
- 2:19Speaker 4: laboratory type equipment, along with numerous models and jugs containing
- 2:24Speaker 4: unknown liquid substances.
- 2:27Speaker 3: So the Vegas lab, according to police, belongs to sixty
- 2:29Speaker 3: two year old Jew By Jew, a scient a Chinese national,
- 2:33Speaker 3: and a fugitive who also goes by the alias David He.
- 2:36Speaker 3: He was arrested in twenty twenty three for manufacturing unlicensed
- 2:39Speaker 3: medical devices and lying about unapproved HIV and pregnancy teskets
- 2:45Speaker 3: that he was selling. He also operated this illicit biolab
- 2:49Speaker 3: in an abandoned warehouse in Reaveley, California, where investigators found
- 2:53Speaker 3: thousands of vials of blood and tissue a thousand genetically
- 2:57Speaker 3: engineered mice designed to carry the CODE virus, and CDC
- 3:01Speaker 3: tests did show the vials contained HIFA, covid, hepatitis, herpes,
- 3:06Speaker 3: and malaria. Police arrested Ju and he's been in jail
- 3:10Speaker 3: ever since. Congressional investigators link the lab to the Chinese
- 3:14Speaker 3: Communist Party, a tie that also suggests the same people
- 3:18Speaker 3: are behind the Vegas lab.
- 3:20Speaker 4: What do we think these people were doing with those
- 3:24Speaker 4: substances in the house, And I'll tell you the truth
- 3:27Speaker 4: is is we don't know yet.
- 3:29Speaker 3: So House investigators say Jew got financing from mainland China
- 3:34Speaker 3: to create dozens of companies here and Canada. He employed
- 3:37Speaker 3: mostly Chinese nationals to steal American intellectual property and transfer
- 3:42Speaker 3: to China. His trial begins in April.
- 3:45Speaker 1: You listen to this story and it's in multiple places,
- 3:48Speaker 1: and now it also stretches to Canada, and what the
- 3:52Speaker 1: FDA and the DOJ are alleging is that this man
- 3:56Speaker 1: was manufacturing and importing and sold large volumes of COVID
- 4:00Speaker 1: nineteen and other test kits without proper authorization or permits.
- 4:05Speaker 1: He also misbranded or made false representations about those kits.
- 4:10Speaker 1: In twenty twenty four, the indictment summary, prosecutors alleged a
- 4:14Speaker 1: conspiracy and wired fraud scheme one point seven million involving
- 4:19Speaker 1: importing and misrepresentation of the test kits, including claims the
- 4:23Speaker 1: tests were made in the US and where FDA approved
- 4:27Speaker 1: when they were not. Local officials and congressional investigators emphasized
- 4:32Speaker 1: that the Reedley site had large volumes let me say
- 4:37Speaker 1: that again, large volumes of biological samples and lab mice.
- 4:43Speaker 1: You heard that in the report there from Fox and
- 4:45Speaker 1: criticized aspects of the federal public health response. You move
- 4:50Speaker 1: now to what happens Saturday in Las Vegas. Officials have
- 4:54Speaker 1: not publicly stated a definitive motive, yet the investigation is
- 4:57Speaker 1: being described as methodical while testing all that they're finding,
- 5:02Speaker 1: and for good reasons. So how did the case even
- 5:05Speaker 1: come to light? In Vegas. Reporting from ABC News says
- 5:09Speaker 1: the investigation began as a code violation call, and once
- 5:14Speaker 1: authority suspected possible hazards biological materials, the Joint Terrorism Task
- 5:19Speaker 1: Force took over local reporting from the Las Vegas Review Journal.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Adds at a housecleaner tip and subsequent illnesses reported were
- 5:29Speaker 1: part of the investigative materials and the narrative in the
- 5:33Speaker 1: arrest report. On the ground in Las Vegas. We now
- 5:36Speaker 1: have the Federal Bureau of Investigations the Las Vegas Metropolitan
- 5:40Speaker 1: Police Department, and they executed the warrant, treating it as
- 5:44Speaker 1: a hazardous site, collecting more than a thousand samples, and
- 5:49Speaker 1: then sent the evidence for lab testing. Officials say there
- 5:53Speaker 1: is no immediate public threat while the investigation continues. That's
- 5:58Speaker 1: the good news now. Additional the follow up on the
- 6:00Speaker 1: activity is also part of this investigation. The Las Vegas
- 6:04Speaker 1: raid also prompted an additional federal search back at the
- 6:08Speaker 1: Readley Link property and then the US Department of Justice
- 6:12Speaker 1: for the Eastern District of California. They already announced the
- 6:16Speaker 1: arrest back in October of twenty twenty three, and the
- 6:19Speaker 1: indictment in November of twenty twenty three charges focusing on
- 6:23Speaker 1: the misbranding and the all the medical devices and false
- 6:26Speaker 1: statements given by the Chinese national working for the Chinese
- 6:30Speaker 1: Communist Party. US Food and Drug Administration describes at twenty
- 6:34Speaker 1: twenty four indictment adding conspiracy and wire fraud allegation, and
- 6:40Speaker 1: they laid out the alleged test kit import and marketing
- 6:43Speaker 1: scheme as well. The House Select Committee on the Chinese
- 6:46Speaker 1: Communist Party publicized the findings on the REALLY lab and
- 6:50Speaker 1: criticized the CDC's response to it as well. A House
- 6:54Speaker 1: member is pushing legislation now titled the Preventing Illegal Laboratories
- 7:00Speaker 1: and Protecting Public Health Act of twenty twenty five and
- 7:04Speaker 1: urging a hearing after the Las Vegas development has unfolded
- 7:09Speaker 1: over the last few days. Now, what exactly is in
- 7:12Speaker 1: the Las Vegas vials, we don't know. The testing is ongoing,
- 7:17Speaker 1: But what we do know is very quote concerning. Now
- 7:20Speaker 1: whether the Las Vegas location was operational as a lab
- 7:24Speaker 1: or use for storage or linked to the REALLY test
- 7:28Speaker 1: kit scheme is a direct operational way that investigators are
- 7:32Speaker 1: building this picture out. One thing that is for sure,
- 7:36Speaker 1: investigators found thousands of vials of blood and tissue genetically
- 7:42Speaker 1: engineered mice designed to carry COVID. Tests show the vials
- 7:47Speaker 1: did contain COVID hepatitis malaria, and investigators are now linking
- 7:53Speaker 1: these two labs together, but more importantly, linking them to
- 7:57Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party, which it springs up an even
- 8:01Speaker 1: bigger issue. Why are we continuing to allow Chinese nationals,
- 8:06Speaker 1: which ties the CCP, into the United States of America.
- 8:09Speaker 1: Why are we opening up our universities when we know
- 8:12Speaker 1: that so many that are coming here are in fact spies.
- 8:16Speaker 1: That is the question that so many are asking, and
- 8:19Speaker 1: more importantly, it's about time that we all demand answers
- 8:24Speaker 1: to those questions. Voter ID laws are something that conservatives,
- 8:29Speaker 1: the GOP in general, and certainly the President United States
- 8:33Speaker 1: of America Donald Trump, had been focused on because we believe, simply,
- 8:38Speaker 1: and the President has made it clear that every vote
- 8:42Speaker 1: should be counted and not canceled out by people that
- 8:45Speaker 1: are cheating, that are lying about who they are, or
- 8:49Speaker 1: dead people voting, or even stuffing ballot boxes with people
- 8:52Speaker 1: that actually had no intent of showing up to vote
- 8:55Speaker 1: and someone else voted on their behalf. Yes, there is
- 8:59Speaker 1: voter fraud in this country, And if you don't believe me,
- 9:02Speaker 1: you can just look online at stories and articles of
- 9:05Speaker 1: people who recently have gone to jail for voter fraud. Now,
- 9:10Speaker 1: there's also a simple way to overcome this problem, and
- 9:14Speaker 1: that is by having what now is being referred to
- 9:17Speaker 1: as a Save Act. The Save Act is very simple.
- 9:21Speaker 1: It explicitly adds a national photo ID requirement to voting.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Congress's HR twenty two, the Save Act would require documentary
- 9:33Speaker 1: proof of US citizenship when registering to vote in federal
- 9:37Speaker 1: elections as well, and direct states to use certain processes
- 9:41Speaker 1: to ensure only citizens are on the voter rolls. The
- 9:46Speaker 1: Save America Act also has been introduced by Representative Chip
- 9:52Speaker 1: Roy and Senator Mike Lee. It describes as a new
- 9:56Speaker 1: and improved version that adds a voter ID requirement for
- 10:01Speaker 1: voting in federal elections while keeping the proof of citizenship
- 10:04Speaker 1: requirement for registration, in essence taking it a step further.
- 10:09Speaker 1: Make Elections Great Again, known as Mega Act, is another
- 10:13Speaker 1: GOP proposal that includes a national photo ID requirement and
- 10:19Speaker 1: other election administration changes. The issue also popped up inside
- 10:25Speaker 1: broader Capitol Hill negotiations, as some Republicans threatened to block
- 10:29Speaker 1: a shutdown ending deal unless it included citizenship and voter
- 10:34Speaker 1: ID provisions. Now we know that didn't ultimately happen because
- 10:39Speaker 1: the government, the partial shutdown is now over. But let
- 10:42Speaker 1: me tell you what the American people actually think about this.
- 10:47Speaker 1: And if you want to know what Democrats are doing, well,
- 10:50Speaker 1: they're certainly not listening to the American people. And even
- 10:54Speaker 1: CNN is saying overwhelmingly Democrats, Republicans and in Independence are
- 11:01Speaker 1: in favor of photo ID laws.
- 11:06Speaker 5: Take a look here, favorite photo ID to vote. Eighty
- 11:08Speaker 5: five percent of white people favorite, eighty two percent of Latino,
- 11:11Speaker 5: seventy six percent of Black Americans favorite. So the bottom
- 11:15Speaker 5: line is this, voter ID is not controversial in this country.
- 11:19Speaker 5: A photo ID to vote is not controversial in this country.
- 11:22Speaker 5: It is not controversial by party, and it is not
- 11:24Speaker 5: controversial by race. The vast majority of Americans agree with
- 11:28Speaker 5: Nicki Minaj that, in fact, you should have a photo
- 11:30Speaker 5: ID to be able to vote.
- 11:32Speaker 1: So something of an Now you notice there they didn't
- 11:35Speaker 1: even break it down by Republican, Democrats and Independence. Instead
- 11:38Speaker 1: they broke it down by race. Why did they decide
- 11:41Speaker 1: to do that on CNN? For one simple reason Democrats
- 11:45Speaker 1: have been saying for decades that if you ask a
- 11:48Speaker 1: minority for their ID to vote, that is somehow racist,
- 11:52Speaker 1: And that's exactly how they've been able to continue to
- 11:54Speaker 1: cheat in elections by saying that you are a racist
- 11:59Speaker 1: person if you ask a minority for their ID to vote. Well,
- 12:03Speaker 1: look at the numbers. Now, Black voters overwhelmingly seventy six percent,
- 12:10Speaker 1: so they want photo ID to vote. White's eighty five
- 12:15Speaker 1: percent want it, and Latinos at eighty two percent. So
- 12:20Speaker 1: why would the Democrats on the Hill still say no.
- 12:23Speaker 1: I'll say it simply this way. It's because they want
- 12:26Speaker 1: to be able to still and alter election outcomes full stop.
- 12:31Speaker 1: In fact, President Trump making it clear on the record
- 12:36Speaker 1: using this type of data to make his point that yes,
- 12:39Speaker 1: the American people want this. It's non political.
- 12:44Speaker 6: Who would not want voter a D Only somebody that
- 12:47Speaker 6: wants to chieat think of it. But I have voter
- 12:49Speaker 6: a D and the Democrats don't want it. And the
- 12:53Speaker 6: reason they don't want because they want to cheat. Because
- 12:55Speaker 6: there's no reason in the world. And I love that debate,
- 12:59Speaker 6: why don't you want voter ID?
- 13:02Speaker 7: And you watch them say I don't know it.
- 13:05Speaker 1: I know why the President knows why. It is because
- 13:08Speaker 1: Democrats want to be able to cheat. Now, there's also
- 13:12Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on those in Congress to do
- 13:15Speaker 1: the right thing, as massive amounts of Americans are demanding
- 13:19Speaker 1: that the Senate leader John Thune listen to what the
- 13:22Speaker 1: President just said and to Nicki Minaj and force voter
- 13:26Speaker 1: ID through the floor. Here's more about that from Fox News.
- 13:31Speaker 8: Voter ID the Senate saying they may press forward and
- 13:35Speaker 8: try to push this act forward as past the House.
- 13:39Speaker 8: Take a listen to the polling on voter ID.
- 13:42Speaker 5: Normally you might expect, hey, there'd be a big divide
- 13:45Speaker 5: by party where Republicans really forwarding, Democrats really against it.
- 13:48Speaker 5: But not really here. I mean, just take a look here,
- 13:50Speaker 5: favorite photo idea vote. You got ninety five percent of
- 13:53Speaker 5: Republicans pretty much awful. But even seventy one percent of
- 13:57Speaker 5: Democrats favorite photo ida vote, it not really all that controversial.
- 14:01Speaker 5: The American people are with Nicki Minaj, whether they are
- 14:04Speaker 5: Republican or even if they are Democrats.
- 14:07Speaker 8: He mentions Nicki Minaj because she put out on X
- 14:10Speaker 8: what's sensible, forward thinking, cutting edge leading nation is having
- 14:13Speaker 8: a debate on whether or not there should be voter
- 14:15Speaker 8: ID like question mark. They're actually fighting not to have
- 14:18Speaker 8: people present ID while voting for your leaders. Do you
- 14:21Speaker 8: get it? Do you get it now? Is this a
- 14:25Speaker 8: winner for Republicans? Can they turn this into a winner.
- 14:28Speaker 9: As is typically the case? Nicki Minaj just got it right.
- 14:31Speaker 8: On the police on the head voter idea.
- 14:34Speaker 9: I've been working on this thing no longer than I can.
- 14:36Speaker 8: Why do you think I asked you?
- 14:39Speaker 9: It is ain't no brainer. It's always been a no brainer.
- 14:41Speaker 9: It doesn't matter how you break down the constituencies. The
- 14:44Speaker 9: American people have always been in favor of it.
- 14:46Speaker 8: But there's to use an idea.
- 14:47Speaker 7: To get a beer, you have.
- 14:48Speaker 9: To get on a plane, you have to We built
- 14:51Speaker 9: a society around it, as it turns out, and so
- 14:53Speaker 9: it would only make sense if you had to vote
- 14:57Speaker 9: with one two. I think they ought to make these
- 14:59Speaker 9: people vote on the as many times as they can,
- 15:01Speaker 9: because there is no defense for not wanting voter ID
- 15:05Speaker 9: at the polls. But it continues to be an issue
- 15:08Speaker 9: over and over again. They automate this a dividing line.
- 15:11Speaker 9: I don't know if it's in the context of this
- 15:13Speaker 9: DHS build. They got enough stuff to try to figure
- 15:15Speaker 9: out with ice and everything else in a short time period.
- 15:18Speaker 9: But it really needs to be a central folk.
- 15:20Speaker 8: And they could get some Democrats, Kiven.
- 15:22Speaker 10: They certainly could get some Democrats. I point to my
- 15:24Speaker 10: adopted home state of South Carolina that passed a bipartisan
- 15:27Speaker 10: bill involving voter ID, extending early votes. Some drop locations
- 15:31Speaker 10: as well, got the Congressional black HAWKUS in Columbia South
- 15:34Speaker 10: Carolina on board. That can be a model. It doesn't
- 15:36Speaker 10: Democrats don't need to uniformly oppose this just to stand
- 15:39Speaker 10: in opposition to the president.
- 15:41Speaker 1: And yet that's exactly what they are going to do.
- 15:44Speaker 1: They're going to continue to stand in the way of
- 15:47Speaker 1: the president now. President Trump also told every Republican center
- 15:51Speaker 1: to their face that they must in the filibuster or
- 15:55Speaker 1: nothing will be passed for three plus years. He said,
- 15:58Speaker 1: start tonight, a voter ID, no mail in voting, all
- 16:03Speaker 1: the things make our elections secure and safe. He said, then, John,
- 16:10Speaker 1: they've done a forever. The first time they haven't. They
- 16:14Speaker 1: won't do a cr they won't do any bills. If
- 16:17Speaker 1: you don't get it, you'll never pass voter ID. The
- 16:21Speaker 1: President went on to say it's time for Republicans to
- 16:25Speaker 1: do what they have to do. Terminate the filibuster. If
- 16:28Speaker 1: you don't, you'll be in bad shape. We won't pass
- 16:31Speaker 1: any legislation, no legislation for three and a quarter years.
- 16:37Speaker 1: That is how the president is describing just how dysfunctional Washington,
- 16:41Speaker 1: DC is. Donald Trump also saying it's common sense. That's
- 16:47Speaker 1: another reason why we have to get it done.
- 16:50Speaker 6: You want to have voter ID, you want to insist
- 16:52Speaker 6: on it. You want to insist on it. Can you
- 16:56Speaker 6: imagine in California they not only don't have voter ID,
- 17:01Speaker 6: but if an official at the voting booths, which they
- 17:04Speaker 6: don't have by the way, because it's all male, if
- 17:06Speaker 6: an official, a voting official even asks somebody for voter ID, sir,
- 17:14Speaker 6: would like to see your identification? Do you come from
- 17:18Speaker 6: our country?
- 17:19Speaker 7: They put them in.
- 17:20Speaker 6: Jail for tampering with the election. Okay, we got to
- 17:25Speaker 6: straighten this out before it gets too crazy. California is
- 17:29Speaker 6: more corrupt than any place. California is more corrupt than Minnesota.
- 17:33Speaker 6: And I won Minnesota. Well, Tom's going I think so, well.
- 17:39Speaker 7: Can't be proportionately.
- 17:41Speaker 6: Probably nothing's more corrupt, right, yeah, right, He says, you
- 17:46Speaker 6: gotta win I'll tell you what I did great there
- 17:48Speaker 6: three times. I was surprised three times that those elections
- 17:52Speaker 6: are corrupt. They got you one time too, but I
- 17:55Speaker 6: heard a long time ago, but they got you. But
- 17:59Speaker 6: they got to straighten those. But we have to have
- 18:01Speaker 6: voter ID. And you know, when you confront a Democrat
- 18:06Speaker 6: about voter ID, like in a debate or something, I
- 18:09Speaker 6: said it a couple of times with Biden, I just
- 18:11Speaker 6: want they're very embarrassed when they say we.
- 18:15Speaker 7: Want voter ID.
- 18:18Speaker 6: Voter identification is the only reason somebody doesn't want that
- 18:22Speaker 6: is because they want to cheat. Our elections are crooked
- 18:25Speaker 6: as hell, and you can not only win elections over that,
- 18:29Speaker 6: and not only win future elections, but you'll win every
- 18:33Speaker 6: debate because the public.
- 18:34Speaker 7: Is really angry about it.
- 18:36Speaker 6: And you are to pass the Safe Act or whatever
- 18:39Speaker 6: you're going to call is are we going to Save
- 18:41Speaker 6: Act or the Save America Act? I think we're going
- 18:44Speaker 6: to change your name a little bit. You're going to
- 18:45Speaker 6: put that up for a vote. I think everybody in
- 18:48Speaker 6: this room certainly should do it. And it's a bad
- 18:51Speaker 6: vote for them because they're voting against things like voter
- 18:53Speaker 6: ID and other things that are almost equal to voter ID.
- 18:57Speaker 6: But when somebody says no, we don't want voter ID,
- 19:00Speaker 6: that means the crooked and the public understands that you
- 19:02Speaker 6: want elections with it. But I think it would be
- 19:05Speaker 6: really important save America Act if you would put that
- 19:08Speaker 6: up for a vote. It's got my total endorsement, and
- 19:11Speaker 6: all it is is common sense things about the election.
- 19:15Speaker 7: And they'll fight it like crazy because they cheat it.
- 19:18Speaker 1: They'll fight it like crazy because they cheat. That is
- 19:22Speaker 1: exactly why the President's going to war on this issue
- 19:24Speaker 1: and not backing down. And the good news is he's
- 19:27Speaker 1: got the American people on this one behind him. So Republicans,
- 19:31Speaker 1: they better listen up and they better lead on the issue.
- 19:35Speaker 1: It is signed. President Donald Trump has signed the bill
- 19:38Speaker 1: to reopen the government following the Democrat government shut down.
- 19:43Speaker 1: It was a partial shutdown, but it was a significant
- 19:46Speaker 1: moment as Republicans went straight to the Oval Office and
- 19:50Speaker 1: made it very clear that Americans need to understand what
- 19:53Speaker 1: is in this bill and what is working for you.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Speaker Mike Johnson speaking first, saying this standing that to
- 20:00Speaker 1: the present in the Oval Office.
- 20:03Speaker 7: A big thing.
- 20:04Speaker 11: It seems like a small thing, but it's a big thing,
- 20:06Speaker 11: and we're spending less money year over year, and with
- 20:08Speaker 11: all the innovations and things that you said there, this
- 20:10Speaker 11: is good for the country.
- 20:11Speaker 7: And America is back. The hat is appropriate, it's the
- 20:14Speaker 7: right right slogan is a new hat. We just came out.
- 20:17Speaker 7: America is back books. He and and stilled. Look at her,
- 20:20Speaker 7: she's never sweating something. He'll never see hers clumb somebody
- 20:23Speaker 7: else see her small, missus.
- 20:25Speaker 11: President, and I mentioned that there's significant healthcare reform in
- 20:28Speaker 11: this field, ABM reform, something that you have been working on,
- 20:31Speaker 11: and we appreciate and applaud your efforts bringing drug prices
- 20:35Speaker 11: down for citizens here in America. Not only that, but
- 20:39Speaker 11: we extended telehealth and also we are addressing maternal.
- 20:44Speaker 7: Mortality in this bill.
- 20:46Speaker 11: Rual health here has been a big part of your
- 20:49Speaker 11: of your focus, and we appreciate that.
- 20:50Speaker 7: Thank you so much. Thank you.
- 20:52Speaker 6: You know, a very big thing I think for all
- 20:54Speaker 6: of us is most favored nations on drug pressing. So
- 20:58Speaker 6: for thirty years have been talking about it more than that,
- 21:01Speaker 6: and it's basically we now will take many prescription drugs,
- 21:06Speaker 6: will come down to the lowest price anywhere in the world.
- 21:09Speaker 6: So if a country is selling a pill for ten
- 21:13Speaker 6: dollars and we're selling it for one hundred and thirty dollars,
- 21:15Speaker 6: which is not much of an exaggeration at all. We
- 21:19Speaker 6: would paying the highest drug prices anywhere in the world.
- 21:22Speaker 6: Now we'll be paying tied with the lowest price. It's
- 21:25Speaker 6: most favored Nations. We will have the lowest price anywhere
- 21:29Speaker 6: in the world. So a pill that was for one
- 21:33Speaker 6: hundred and thirty dollars will be down to twenty dollars.
- 21:36Speaker 6: So you can make a case that that's eight hundred
- 21:39Speaker 6: nine hundred percent, or like the press likes to hear,
- 21:42Speaker 6: it's about eighty percent. But we're going to get reductions
- 21:46Speaker 6: like nobody's ever seen, and frankly, the Republican Party should
- 21:50Speaker 6: be able to win the midterms on that alone. That's
- 21:52Speaker 6: the biggest thing there is most favored Nations. We're going
- 21:55Speaker 6: to be bringing the price of drugs down. In my
- 21:59Speaker 6: first term, I got it down one eighth of one percent,
- 22:02Speaker 6: and I was so proud because it was the first
- 22:04Speaker 6: time in twenty eight years that drug prices came down,
- 22:07Speaker 6: and now we're talking about bringing it down by eighty
- 22:12Speaker 6: ninety seventy five sixty eight. I have numbers in the
- 22:17Speaker 6: back that nobody can believe, most favorite nations. And remember
- 22:21Speaker 6: the Republicans did that. The Democrats did not do that.
- 22:23Speaker 6: Republicans did it. And that's going to have a huge
- 22:26Speaker 6: impact also in healthcare because medicine, I mean, it's a
- 22:30Speaker 6: big junk of healthcare.
- 22:32Speaker 7: And if you're bringing something down from one.
- 22:35Speaker 6: Hundred dollars down to twenty dollars, eighteen dollars.
- 22:40Speaker 7: Because we were subsidizing the entire world.
- 22:44Speaker 6: And frankly, I had to get the countries to go
- 22:46Speaker 6: along with it, and I had to threatened tariffs against
- 22:48Speaker 6: them if they didn't approve. And the healthcare companies who
- 22:51Speaker 6: weren't easy either, but they said it doesn't.
- 22:54Speaker 7: Matter because they'll never get the countries because.
- 22:57Speaker 6: Anyone we want to do it. And I got the countries,
- 22:59Speaker 6: they one of them. And really people can't even believe it.
- 23:05Speaker 6: But for the people standing behind me, you should. If
- 23:08Speaker 6: you use that alone, you should win. We should win
- 23:12Speaker 6: the elections coming up. Anybody else, how about on the side.
- 23:16Speaker 12: Well, you mentioned the irs was the president. Their behavior
- 23:19Speaker 12: has been atrocious. If you think about leaking your tax
- 23:22Speaker 12: returns the tax returns of others, never any accountability. I
- 23:25Speaker 12: must have questioned Jennet yelled four times, five times under
- 23:29Speaker 12: oath about this and never an answer. We stipped ten
- 23:31Speaker 12: million dollars from the irs in this bill that you
- 23:35Speaker 12: just signed. And today I launched an investigation with my
- 23:38Speaker 12: staff on all of these contractors that are associated with
- 23:42Speaker 12: the ones that allowed your information to be put out.
- 23:44Speaker 12: These contractors that hire activists to come in and do
- 23:47Speaker 12: their work, These corporations here in America that bring access
- 23:50Speaker 12: to in to do their work.
- 23:53Speaker 7: That's going to come to an end. They did leak
- 23:56Speaker 7: my tax returns. It was terrible. The good news is
- 23:58Speaker 7: I paid a hell of a lot attack. I paid
- 24:01Speaker 7: tens of millions of dollars. I said, where are my accountants.
- 24:05Speaker 7: I want to talk to my account But they did.
- 24:07Speaker 7: They leaked by tact and they didn't do it in
- 24:09Speaker 7: a nice way. They can get something out of it
- 24:12Speaker 7: now they have badle accountabilities coming though.
- 24:14Speaker 12: You think about the phone companies that leaked our telephone
- 24:17Speaker 12: wrecords several of us here right verizonly.
- 24:20Speaker 7: My telephone records.
- 24:22Speaker 12: You think about what's happened across the company.
- 24:25Speaker 7: This is going to come to an end.
- 24:26Speaker 6: We should have voter ID by the way we should
- 24:28Speaker 6: have a lot of the things that I think everybody
- 24:30Speaker 6: wants to see. Who would not want voter ID only
- 24:34Speaker 6: somebody that wants to cheat think of it. We don't
- 24:37Speaker 6: have voter ID, and the Democrats don't want it. And
- 24:40Speaker 6: the reason they don't want because they want to cheat,
- 24:43Speaker 6: Because there's no reason in the world. And I love
- 24:46Speaker 6: that debate, Lindsey. I love saying, well, why don't you
- 24:49Speaker 6: want voter ID and you watch them say, I don't know.
- 24:54Speaker 7: I just made them vote. Then it's a terrible thing.
- 24:57Speaker 7: So anyway, anybody.
- 24:59Speaker 13: Else, President, you said you wanted to make America safer
- 25:02Speaker 13: and more prosperous, and we and we have done it.
- 25:05Speaker 13: More prosperity means more money in people's pockets, and they
- 25:07Speaker 13: notice that every time they go to fill up with gas,
- 25:10Speaker 13: and they're going to know it when they get their
- 25:11Speaker 13: tax returns that this year are going to be at
- 25:13Speaker 13: least one thousand dollars, if not more greater than it's
- 25:16Speaker 13: been in the past.
- 25:17Speaker 7: And that's a result of the work that you've done
- 25:19Speaker 7: with this whole group.
- 25:20Speaker 13: And in terms of America being safer, the number of
- 25:23Speaker 13: US were at the border two weeks ago.
- 25:25Speaker 7: The border is secure.
- 25:26Speaker 13: No one is coming across, not that ten thousand we
- 25:29Speaker 13: saw every day with Joe Biden and the American people
- 25:31Speaker 13: still in overwhelming numbers. Republicans, Democrats and independents all say
- 25:36Speaker 13: illegal immigrant criminals need to be deported, And mister President,
- 25:40Speaker 13: you're doing that.
- 25:42Speaker 7: And no tax and tips, no social security, more my
- 25:48Speaker 7: people's pockets. Thank you.
- 25:50Speaker 6: And that was all the great big beauta obeil as
- 25:52Speaker 6: I call it, the great big beart of obil.
- 25:54Speaker 7: To me, that's what it is. And people are studying
- 25:56Speaker 7: and people are starting to realize it. Tax deduction on
- 26:01Speaker 7: your if you borrow buy a car if.
- 26:03Speaker 6: It's made in America. Only if it's made in America.
- 26:05Speaker 6: The rest we don't care about so much. But you
- 26:08Speaker 6: buy a car, you get an interest deduction. You borrow money,
- 26:11Speaker 6: you get an interest in tax deduction. And that is
- 26:14Speaker 6: you take interest, you deducted against your attack. So to me,
- 26:19Speaker 6: that's unbelievable for the people, unbelievable for.
- 26:22Speaker 7: Our car companies, which is jobs.
- 26:23Speaker 14: Anybody else, the President, the biggest part of this bill
- 26:27Speaker 14: is our national security right, and thank you. The men
- 26:29Speaker 14: and women who served this country are grateful to you,
- 26:31Speaker 14: and we give them a pay raise for helping more ships,
- 26:34Speaker 14: as you said, planes, missiles. We need to defend this
- 26:38Speaker 14: country and you're doing a great job and leave us
- 26:40Speaker 14: in the right direction.
- 26:40Speaker 6: Thank you very much, Katie, go ahead, you're going to
- 26:42Speaker 6: say so yeahs your President.
- 26:44Speaker 15: This is just unprecedented leadership. The fact that you've got
- 26:47Speaker 15: everyone to come together and actually get these bills.
- 26:50Speaker 7: Across the finish line.
- 26:51Speaker 15: You heard it from the Speaker that that hasn't happened
- 26:53Speaker 15: in a long time. So ninety six percent of the
- 26:55Speaker 15: government being funded. Your priorities put in place, mister President,
- 26:59Speaker 15: so that we can make the country safer, we can
- 27:01Speaker 15: make it more prosperous, and not only can we make
- 27:04Speaker 15: America great again, but we can tell people now America.
- 27:07Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a great, it's a great.
- 27:09Speaker 6: We'll never forget Macga and we're all with Mecca. But
- 27:12Speaker 6: this is very appropriate, right, Cindy, I'd come on say something.
- 27:18Speaker 4: Well, there's a little hospital in here, a rural hospital
- 27:21Speaker 4: in Maple, Mississippi, right called Franklin County Hospital.
- 27:25Speaker 12: It would have closed the end of this month without
- 27:28Speaker 12: this bill.
- 27:29Speaker 8: Thank you, Thank you from everybody in Mississippi, especially Franklin County.
- 27:33Speaker 7: And we've covered the rural very well.
- 27:35Speaker 6: Nobody ever thought it was possible because we had a
- 27:37Speaker 6: lot of opposition from the Democrats, as you know, but
- 27:41Speaker 6: nobody thought it was possible.
- 27:43Speaker 7: That's great, how about it. Anybody back there, Tom best
- 27:47Speaker 7: budget for Native Americas ever present. Thanks, great, So we'll

- 28:09Speaker 1: President Trump there making it very clear it was a
- 28:12Speaker 1: team effort and so many different issues as you heard
- 28:14Speaker 1: there with senators around him talking about what is in
- 28:18Speaker 1: this bill and it's partial shutdown of the Democrats yet
- 28:22Speaker 1: again trying to hold us hostage. Now it's all over,
- 28:26Speaker 1: you can go back to work in Congress and do
- 28:29Speaker 1: your actual job. The President making it clear he's going
- 28:33Speaker 1: to keep fighting, but he's giving many Americans exactly what
- 28:36Speaker 1: they need to succeed, and that's exactly what he said
- 28:40Speaker 1: his plan was when he ran for re election. Don't
