Lindsey Graham Demands Special Counsel, Obama Phone is BACK as a Scandal & NYT Forced to Retract Gaza Starvation Photo · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Center, Lindsey Graham went on Meet the Press and was
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: very angry. He was angry about the lies the medium
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: told over Russian intelligence and the Russian collusion story. Back
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: in two thoy and sixteen. Lindsey Graham having this to say,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: he was in Congress, you may remember then, and he
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: knew exactly what was going on in sixteen, and now
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: he's got three seats to show what the Biden regime
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: was doing to try to overthrow the will of the
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: people with a coup attempt against Donald Trump. Here is
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Lindsay on NBC. Take a listen.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: All right, well, let me ask you about this twist
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: that happened this week. President Trump seemed to want to
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: try to shut down questions about the Epstein files by
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: accusing former President Obama of treason. This came as his
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Director of National Intelligence, Tulci Gabbert, declassified documents which alleged
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: top Obama ficial manufactured information related to Russian interference in
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: the twenty sixteen election. Now, Senator, as you are well aware,
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: this actually contradicts a bipartisan Senate intelligence report led by
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Marco Rubio, which found that Russia did, in fact interfere.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: In the election.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Do you actually believe that former President Obama committed treason?
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Well, I think somebody needs to look at what we found.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: The Intel Committee looked at the matter, and they said
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: in twenty seventeen, the intelligence analysis of twenty seventeen showing
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: that Russia was trying to interfere in our election was real.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: They didn't achieve their goal.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: But what she found, Miss Gabbert, is that in twenty sixteen,
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: the intelligence community he told President Obama there's no evidence
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: that Russia was involved in trying to change the outcome
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: of the election, and he supposedly told her group of
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: people keep looking, and the analysis changed. So what we're
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: looking at is did what role did Obama play in
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: twenty sixteen to change the narrative that resulted in twenty seventeen.
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: I'm not alleging he committed treason, but I am saying
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: it bothers me. It's disturbing that this is new information.
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: Now you got the number two guid the FBI, don
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: mister Bongino, saying he's seeing things that has changed his life.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: And I assume now he's referring to Russia.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: So the best way to handle this is if there
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: are if there is evidence of a crime being committed
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: or suspected evidence of a crime being committed, create a
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: special counsel to look at it.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: I think that's the best way to go.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Okay, let me follow up with you on your calls
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: for a special council investigation.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Let's just pause there. Lindsey Graham just called for a
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: special prosecutor to investigate. This is what he's saying. By
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the way, when he said this, he also went after
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the Washington Post and the New York Times, and he
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: went after the media for how they covered the Russian
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: collusion story, and then in essence, they were in on
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: it as well.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: I think that's the best way to go.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Okay, let me follow up with you on your calls
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: for a special council investigation. As you know, Senator, there
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: was already a Trump appointed special council at the time
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: investigating the origins of the Russia probe, but did not
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: find any evidence of political interference. And Senator, at the time,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: you agreed with the findings of the intelligence community. I
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: want to play back what you said at the time.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Take a look, Yep, the Russians did it.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: It was the Russians who tried to interfere in our election.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: Every member of the committee agrees it was the Russians.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: They didn't change the outcome, but they did release information
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: embarrassing to the Democratic Party.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: It did affect Hillary Clinton.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: There's only one person Washington that I know of that
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: has any doubt about what Russia did in our election,
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: and is President Trump.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Senator are you now saying that you don't believe that
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Russia tried to interfere in the twenty sixteen election, Well.
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: What I am saying is that you left a lot
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: out here. It's called the Horowitz reports. The Mueller investigation
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: was crooked and rotten to the core. The Washington Post
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: and The New York Times got a pull up surprise
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: for reporting on Trump's campaign's relationship with Russia. It was
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: all bs at the time. I didn't know any of
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: that at the time. I didn't know that they were
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: manufacturing evidence to get PHISA warrants.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: There was a confirmation bias.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: Durham didn't say there was no political bias.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: He said quite the opposite.
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: He said, every time PAISA warrant was sought in the
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: Mueller world, they got it, and the errors made to
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: get warrants in this space were a lot greater than
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: they were in anything not involving Trump. But what I'm
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: saying is that this is new evidence. This is something
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: I didn't know. You didn't know that. In twenty sixteen,
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: Obama suggested, I don't like the outcome that there's no
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: evidence Russia was involved. Well, now we all say Russia
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: was involved, but in twenty sixteen they said Russia wasn't involved.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: What's that happened. Let's get a special council hold on
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: et centa.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: As you know, former President Obama has weighed in through
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: a spokesperson.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: By the way, do you notice how nervous Christian Welker
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: is at NBC News over this. She's nervous because she
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: feels that they're losing the narrative. And then Lindsey Graham
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: goes into NBC News' reporting. He's like, I talked about
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Washington posting your Times. I'll talk about you guys too.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Let's get a special council hold on et cetera.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: As you know, former President Obama has weighed in through
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: a spokesperson. He says, that's just patently false. I actually
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: spoke to Susan Miller, who's a former Senior CIA officer
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: who helped oversee the twenty seventeen intelligence assessment on Russian interference.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: She says it's completely false that Obama or anyone else
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: asked them to change or.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: Sway their investigators.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: She says they all, she says, and she's a Republican,
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: says they all would have quit if that had happened. Senator,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: are you trying to rewrite history to distract from the
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Epstein matter?
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: Senator No, I'm trying to let you know and the
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: media know that we found something we.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: Didn't know before. At the end of the day, I'm
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: not calling.
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: For a prosecution against President Obama for treason, but I
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: am calling for an investigation. Mister Miller also said there
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: was no credible evidence that President Trump colluded with the Russians.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: For years and months and days and weeks, people had
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: their lives turned upside down. Chasing the Muller narrative that
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: Trump was in bed with the Russians, that the Trump
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: campaign was colluding with the Russians. The only people colluding
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: with the Russians were the hill or Clinton campaign and
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: Christopher Steell.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: Manufacturing a document to get.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: Warrants against Carter Page based on lies and falsehoods.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm very familiar with it.
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: What you don't seem to acknowledge is there something new
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: being found Rather than reinventing the wheel here, let's go
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: back to a special Council model to look at this.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Something new.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: Something new is statements by President Obama. I don't like
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: your analysis. Russia wasn't involved here in twenty sixty.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Cenator, you're saying there's something new. This report goes back
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: to twenty twenty. It's five years old. There's actually nothing
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: new in this report and nothing that changes any conclusion.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: But I want to talk about because nover is new
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: to me. I it's new to me trying to sweep
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: this stuff under the rug. And that's not right.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: But Senator, you know that at the time.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: You said you you did believe.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: The assessments and the multiple investigations. But let me move
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: on to let's talk about that.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I love how fast by the way, She's like, let's
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: move on to Gaza. Lindsey Graham making it pretty clear.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: I'm not calling for prosecutes from Obama for treason. I'm
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: calling for an investigation, and you're trying to sweep this
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: stuff under the rug. And that's not right. And what
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: we've learned now is completely different than what we were
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: told in twenty sixteen we relied to. So what I
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: said then is completely different than the reality in twenty
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: twenty five of what we're now learning because of these
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: documents that have been released. And I think it's pretty
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: clear that the media now is trying to act like
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: there's nothing there, right, that there's no there there, Like
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: they's just oh, there's nothing nothing to nothing to see here,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: nothing to talk about here, nothing to men, nothing at all,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: just just no, no, everything's you know, look the other way.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: There's nothing here here. Everything's just totally different. And he's saying,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: we got new intel. We were lied to. What I
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: said back then was based on a different set of intel,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: was based on a different set of information. It was
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: based on a very different set of information and intel
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: we were lied to. So you want to act like
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: what I was saying back then is somehow accurate I
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: guess back then, but not now. We have new information.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: And if we have new information, why would I not
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: change my assessment? And you're trying to sweep it under
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: the rouge. By the way, he's absolutely right about that.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: I want to take you back in history for just
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: a moment. You may remember when President Donald Trump ran
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: for office, one of the things he he promised what
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: he was going to clean up waste fraud and abuse. Now,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: when did our government get really big into waste fraud
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: and abuse. A lot of it actually happened when President
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Barack Obama was in office, because he understood that it's
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: easier to buy votes than to convince people to vote
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: for you for actual policy reasons. You may remember the
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: perfect example of buying votes, a woman that became famous
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: for her reason for voting for Barack Obama over a
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: guy by the name of Mitt Romney. Let me be clear,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: I'm not advocating for voting for Mitt Romney for anything.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: We now know what a disaster he was, but at
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: the time he obviously was willing to do a lot
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: better job for this country than Barack Obama. Insert September
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: twenty six of twenty twelve and the famous woman who
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: loved her Obama phone.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: You got Obama phone?
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, everybody in Cleveland's Oh my Nordy got Obama. Faull
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: keep Obaman president. You know you gave us a fall.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: He give you a phone.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Lett he give you a phone, you signed.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Up during, you a full steps, you a social charity,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: you got low income, you disability.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: Okay, what's wrong with Romney again?
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Roy?
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: He sucks.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: There it is. The woman made it clear, you can
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: buy my vote. The Obama phone was real, and it
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: was a way to buy votes, and the Democratic Party
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: was giving out those Obama phones and free sell service
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: each and every month. Well, fast forward to where we
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: are today and we know a lot more about how
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: corrupt the program actually was. The Obama phones. It was
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: also a big scam, and a Florida ceo is now
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: headed to prison and has been ordered to pay one
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty eight million dollars in fines after quote
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: defrauding the government. And we're also being told this may
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: be the tip of the iceberg. The owner of a
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Florida telecommunications company will spend the next five years in prison.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: That's it, only five years, and his firm must pay
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: a hefty fine regarding the Obama phone scam. Q Link
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Wireless LLC and its owner identified as a CEO isa Asad,
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: previously pled guilty to conspiring to commit wired fraud and
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: still federal funds from the Lifeline program that originally began
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: in the nineteen eighties to offer home phone service to
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: those that were in need so they could call nine
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: one one. Well, the program offered subsidized cell phone service
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: than to lower income people and then free phones. And
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: in that twenty twelve video, you had that protester emerging
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: outside of Mitt Rodney event who claimed her neighborhood received
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: then Obama phone. Everybody's got one, every minority. When asked
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: why she supported Obama, the woman said, everybody in Cleveland,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: low minority got Obama phones. Keep Obama and President you know,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: he gave us the phone. He's going to do more. Now.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: This clip was really the first time many Americans ever
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: heard about the abuse in this program, and the name
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Obama Phone caught on after the video went viral. Some
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: telecommunications companies with Lifeline contracts embraced the term as a
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: marketing point. The government, by the way, did not go
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: back to twenty thirteen, Brightbart News reported the opposition to
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: the Lifeline program was growing, as Track Phone Wireless, a
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: company that most benefited from the government's up c, is
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: now advertising on the inside the Beltway news websites in
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: an effort to quote unquote save it. You go to
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: the Fox article and it now says that a Side
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: was sentenced to prison and he, along with his company,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: must pay one hundred and twenty eight million dollars in fines.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: In a press release on Friday, the US Attorney's Office
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: for the Southern District of Florida shared more details about
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: the case and just how bad the fraud may be.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Aside to fraud in another federal government program, it states
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: the Paycheck Protection Program, also known as PPP, by making
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: false statements about q Link's business, Congress you may remember
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: created PPP and it was filled with waste, fraud, and
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: abuse during the COVID nineteen pandemic to authorize forgivable loans
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: of small businesses for job retention as well as quote
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: other expenses. Aside, the q links name executive executed a
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: fraudulent scheme to obtain and keep PPP proceeds. To further
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: the scheme, Aside made false statements about q Link's business,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: including a false claim that q Link's Lifeline reimbursement substantially
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: decrease because of the pandemic. Aside then in twenty twenty one,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: engaged in an unlawful financial transaction involving approximately three hundred
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: and eighty nine thousand of those proceeds, Aside spent PPP
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: loan proceeds on a land rover, payment, his personal AMEX card, jewelry,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: and personal property taxes. Aside was reportedly charged with murder
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: several years ago in connection with driving over a grounds
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: keeper at his business. Per another Fox article, He later
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: pled note, pleaded no contest to misdemeanor culporable negligence, and
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: was slapped with one year of probation in order to
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: pay just a one hundred and twenty five dollars fine.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: The outlet said, proof if you've got really good lawyers,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: you can get away with a hell of a lot.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: As for the Obama phone scam, the four to CEO
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: at least is headed to prison and we'll pay, in
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: theory one hundred and twenty eight million dollars in fines
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: for defrauding the American taxpayer. But is this program still
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: going yes? Is the program still corrupt as hell? Yes?
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: And is it time that the Trump administration look into it?
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: You better believe it. And there's a very good chance
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: that's exactly what's happening right now. I got another big story.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: I want to move to real quick and it is
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: one that involves the corruption on a level that's to
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: shock everybody when it comes to being anti Israel. And
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: the New York Times is now being forced to admit
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: that an emancipated palacing in child that they featured, by
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: the way, on the front page of the New York Times,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: that suffered they claim from starvation, is actually a lie
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: let that sink in all right, So New York Times
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: takes propaganda and they put it on the front page
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: of the New York Times. And as they do this,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: this is not actually from a child being starved, and they,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: of course are trying to imply this is all Israel's fault.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: The New York Times admitted that this child actually was
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: suffering from quote pre existing health problems that it had
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: presented inaccurately as the result of starvation. Now let me
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: just be clear, there is an ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza,
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: all right. This is the result of poor food distribution
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: because of the terrorists and hamas. It's not low supply.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: You have hamas and arm games that are looting the
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: aid convoys. Hamas is refused by the way to release
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: the remaining Israeli hostages that have been held for two
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: and a half years now. I feel terrible for the children.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: I want to be clear about that, I really do.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: I feel terrible for the children. I hate that their
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: parents decide to put killing Jews ahead of their own children.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: I hate the fact that many of these parents advocate
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: and cheered on the killing of innocent Jews. I hate
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: the fact that these parents decide to get in bed
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: with the terrorist organizations and allow them to build tunnels
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: into their buildings and under their homes. I hate the
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: fact that they chose that mainly for the kids. But
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: the reality of this situation now is that you have
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: a media that hates the Jews so much that they're
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: willing to put out their pictures and claim that somehow
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: this is Israel. By the way, I remind you, Israel
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: was the one that was attacked, not the other way around.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: So yeah, there is an ongoing humanitarian crisis right. Hamas
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: is refusing to release the hostages that they are starving
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: to death and have killed. Yes Hamas and armed gangs
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: because of a government that is run by Terras have
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: looted the eight convoys and they're not allowing it to
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: get to the children whose fault is that Again, I
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: go back to what I said earlier, when you get
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: in bed with terras and that's how you sleep with
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: This is what happens now. The child I want to
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: go back to. This child that was photographed by a
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Turkish agency had a muscular disorder. Few outlets that ran
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: the photo disclosed fact to the readers. They wanted to
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: look like this was a child that was being starved
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: to death in Gaza. Some observers noted other photographs in
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: which the boy's relatives, including his brother, looked very well fed.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: And so the internet did what the internet does right now.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: So well, they went out there and they decided to
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: show the truth. You had to watchside group honest reporting
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: that noted this. They said there were massive inconsistencies in
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: the image set. In one of the photos, another child,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: reportedly his older brother, can be seen standing in the background.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: He appears well nourished and perfectly healthy. That alone raise
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: serious questions. In a CNN report published on Saturday, the
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: boy's mother explained that the individual the child suffered from
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: a muscular disorder. It's a medical condition that requires ongoing
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: physical therapy and specialized nutrition. Every outlet that promoted this
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: false narrative should have updated their coverage to reflect the
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: full truth. Right, that this child is not starving the
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: way they wanted it to be. But he has a
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: medical condition. He's not simply a victim of starvation. And
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: the image has been presented in a misleading and incomplete way.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: They should have fixed that. Did they decide to know? Now?
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: The Times was basically beat into submission. Okay, The Times
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: acknowledge the truth in a note by its public relations
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: apartment posted on X on Tuesday. Now again, the damage
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: are been done. Had been on the front page of
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: the New York Times. Now, let me just read for
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: you this statement that the New York Times Communications put out.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: So not near as many people see this X account.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: All right, it's not even the actual New York Times page.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: It's the n Wie Times PR. So it's the PR.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: So the story's still out there in the world. Everybody
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: knows or believes that this is because of a child
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: that's being starved to death. It pulls on your heartstrings.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: And this is what the at New New York Times
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: PR sets. All right, we have appended an editor's note
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: to his story about a child in Gaza who is
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: diagnosed with severe malnutrition. After publication, The Times learned that
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: he also had pre existing health problems. Okay, so that's
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: what you're gonna do. You're going to say that, and
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: they say, read more below. All right, we recently ran
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the story about guys the most vulnerable civilians, including this
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: young boy who is about eighteen months old and suffers
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: from severe malnutrition. We have sense lar new information, including
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: from the hospital that treated him in his medical records,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: and have updated our story to add context about his
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: pre existing health problems. This additional detail gives readers a
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: greater understanding of a situation. Our reporters and photographers continue
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: to report from Gaza bravely, sensitively, and at personal risk,
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: so that readers can see firsthand the consequences of war.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: All right, So let's be clear about the second part
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: of that statement from The New York Times. What they're
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: saying is as well, Number one, you shouldn't be criticizing
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: because our reporters and our photographers are there. They are
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: putting their own lives at risk. So you should just
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: move on from this, right, their actual words, right, they're brave,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: they're sensitive, not like they're calling reporters brave and saying, well,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: they're there at their own personal risk. So you guys
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: need to just calm down a little bit and realize, like,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: this is not that big of a deal. Okay. The
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: photo was on the front of the New York Times.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: All right, it's one of just one of many photos
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: of emanciated Palising children that circulate over the weekend, in
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: which were used to bolster the narrative that Israel is
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: starving the Gosins. Again, that is a lie. If you
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: want to know who's starving them, it is Hamas many
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: of the photographs actually showed Palising children with their medical conditions.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: One showed, for example, palsing child with assistic fibrosis, whom
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Israel had actually helped to obtain medical treatment for in Italy.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: So if you think that Israel's so evil, just know
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: they took a Palace child with cystic fibrosis, they got them,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: helped obtain medical treatment in Italy. And what do they do.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: They come back in, they decide, no, no, we're gonna screw
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: you over. That's what we're gonna do. An Israeli spokesman
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: noted that the photograph that was used all right as propaganda.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: I'm a palacing child starving in guys. That shows a
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: child that's been in Italy for several weeks and whose
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: journey there was facilitated literally by Israel. And then they
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: decided Israel's like blasting the media for the lies. Right,
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: it's straight up spreading anti Semitism, which goes back to
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: what I was saying about the New York Times. They're
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: spreading anti Semitism and they're lying. And what I would
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: tell you is, look, is there is there famine. Yes,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: there is Okay, there is famine. There is it terrible
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: the conditions, yes, Whose fault is it? Whose fault is it?
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: It's one person, folks. It is the terrorists. It is
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: Hamas and the people that have supported a Moss and
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: those that cheered on the death of the Jews. It
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: is a Moss and the people in Palestine that attacked
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: and murdered and are still holding hostage and torturing and
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: sexually assaulting and starving the hostage they still have right now,
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: we know that for a fact. It is truly amazing me.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: I said this on Fox News Channel earlier this week
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: with Harris Faulkner, and I said to her, I said,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: you know, in the history of the world, the only
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: country that I've ever heard of that is actually supposed
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: to feed their enemy their attacker is Israel. And one
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: other point I want to make is where are all
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: the other Middle Eastern countries? Why aren't they getting involved?
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Why is it that all these other countries are not
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: sending food an aid to help all these people in Gaza,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Like somebody should probably ask that question. Why why is
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: it that not a single other Middle Eastern country is
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: doing air jobs right now? Why is it America's job?
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Why is it Israel's job to feed their enemies? Why
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: is it Israel's job to feed their enemies? This article
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: and I go back to the article here, and you
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: go back to X. You put a child out there,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: a Palestinian child starving in Gaza, showing a child that's
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: been in Italy for several weeks and whose journey there
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: was facilitated by Israel. And instead of giving Israel credit
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: for doing that for a Palestinian child, what did they
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: decide to do? They decided that they were going to
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: put that image out there in the news and say
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Israel is starving the people of Gaza. That is anti Semitism,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: one oh one. And for the New York Times to
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: do this and then say we corrected it by using
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: the ex New York Times PR account. Have you ever
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: in your life read the New York Time time PR
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: account on x No. Most Americans that read the New
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: York Times wouldn't even know that the New York Times
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: had a PR account. They didn't want you to know
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: that the picture they put on the cover of The
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: New York Times showing a child starving to death was
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: actually not a child starving to death because of Israel,
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: but because of a medical condition that the child is
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: being treated for in a hospital, and that the rest
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: of his family around him are not starving. I go
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: back to the picture the New York Times didn't want
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: you to see, and that was a picture of his
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: own brother. His brother was healthy. It's a medical condition.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: And now the New York Times forced to admit that
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: the photo actually showed a child with a medical condition,
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: a child with cystic fibrosis, and a child who's being
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: helped with medical treatment Italy because of Israel, helping a
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Palestinian child, And they decide to correct it on X
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: that is anti Semitism one oh one, and they are cowards.
