GOVERNMENT CREATED MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS

Dr. Drew Pinsky says all kinds of terrible policies were perpetrated on the public without any concern for the risk reward of those policies during the China Virus Pandemic. Drew says it was extremely obvious to him that there would be mental health consequences. You had the government telling 12-year-old kids to shelter in place and if you don't shelter in place, you're going to kill your family. In the meantime, what you need to be okay as a 12-year-old is contact with your peers. It's clear that that would result in the mental health consequences. At no point did the bureaucracy stand up and go, you know what? We made a mistake. We really thought we were doing the best thing. But we made a big mistake, sorry, we didn't intend this. He says public health has turned into something he never imagined possible. Physicians have become employees. They do not consider their job, more important than their own health, which Drew says they always did.  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

COMER: IMPEACHMENT 100% ON THE TABLE

House Oversight Chairman James Comer says the Biden White House and MSM are trying to say the impeachment is over. Comer says that's not the case -- impeachment is very well on the table and criminal referrals are very likely imminent for the Biden family. There's a strong sense of support to hold this family accountable. Most Republicans in the conference, if not all, believe that that Joe Biden committed impeachable offenses. Comer says he has lost count on the number of times that his investigation has been obstructed by a deep state agency, whether it be the FBI, the CIA, the Department of Justice, the IRS. His committee has proven two things in this impeachment inquiry: the Bidens have committed a bunch of crimes, and they've proven that there's a deep state cover up of the Bidens committing those crimes because you had you had multiple government agencies investigating the Bidens. You had the Department of Justice in at least three different locations, you had the Securities and Exchange Commission investigating the Bidens. Now, we learned of the Medicare, fraud division investigating the Bidens. You had the IRS investigating the Bidens, the FBI investigating Biden. And at every instance they were told to stand down.  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

AMERICAN CONSPIRACY: THE OCTOPUS MURDERS

What began as an inquiry into a David vs Goliath contract and intellectual-property theft dispute ensnared one journalist in a massive web of intrigue involving political machinations, international espionage, and maybe even murder. American Conspiracy: The Octopus Murders, a new documentary series directed by Zachary Treitz and produced by Duplass Brothers Productions with Stardust Frames Productions, untangles the arms of this conspiracy theory. When a photojournalist named Christian Hansen takes another look at the unfinished investigation, his search for answers sends him and Treitz zigzagging across the country in an attempt to track down the various entities involved in this mystery. It’s a mission that may put them at great personal risk — especially considering that Danny Casolaro, the journalist who originally pursued the story, was found dead under curious circumstances.

TRUMP WILL CRUSH THE MARXIST DEMS

Former NYPD Commissioner Bernie Kerik says President Trump and Rudy Giuliani are examples of two men who have dedicated their lives to their country. Trump’s accomplishments as President and in business are unparalleled. Giuliani in reducing crime to levels never seen before and his oversight, rescue, recovery and investigation of 9/11, to his representation of the President against the absurdities imposed by Left wing Marxists, Communists who are trying to change the nation. Kerik says Americans need to wake up fast because if they don’t, we’re going to see a second China coming. This will be a completely Communist country in the next 8-12 years. Kerik says there is a national conspiracy in the United States and that conspiracy is within the Democrat Party and the Biden Administration. People like Letitia James, Fani Willis and Jack Smith…thugs with law degrees sent by Biden to destroy Trump before the election, the only way they can defeat him. Kerik says Pence was a coward for certifying the election and supporting J6 political persecutions.  He says the majority of these prisoners sat in solitary confinement for months without justification. Kerik says the Left wants the demise of the United States as it was founded and as it stands. The Left is going after Trump and Giuliani for three quarters of a billion dollars. Everyone better pay attention and stand up because your party won’t matter. Once you’re the enemy, they’ll go after you. Kerik is optimistic. He sees a change coming as Black business leaders from Chicago, Philadelphia and Atlanta are now calling Trump. The tide is turning. People are tired of all the illegals intentionally allowed into the country, taking American jobs or engaged in violence, some of which we’ve never seen on our streets before.   GUEST: BERNIE KERIK, FMR.

RULE OF LAW COLLAPSING

Investigative Journalist Julie Kelly says the current focus in President Trump’s legal battles is the 40 count indictment for alleged willful retention of national defense information, obstructing justice, and tampering with evidence. Julie Kelly says this is about arbitrary enforcement of the Espionage Act used in 32 of 40 counts. And the person who keeps bringing up arbitrary enforcement is Judge Aileen Cannon. Kelly says it’s clear she sees the double standard of DOJ’s handling of the case against Trump versus Joe Biden, who kept unclassified national defense records for years in multiple locations. Cannon kept asking how the DOJ could charge Trump but no one else. Biden willfully retained these classified documents because he wanted to write a book about his dispute with Obama. He willfully took records he was not legally authorized to possess. The only person who can authorize keeping national defense records is the President. The question tested in this case is the fact that you have a former VP who was unauthorized to retain these records and he never returned them. Biden met every element of the Espionage Act yet was not charged. How can a former President face charges when he had the authority to declassify these records as President? Kelly has been following the J6 trials for the past 3 years and is shocked, sickened and outraged at everything she’s seen take place in federal courtrooms in the nation’s capitol. Rulings have been unconstitutional, cruel and vengeful. U.S. Atty Matthew Graves has prosecuted and charged hundreds of J6ers and is threatening the Supreme Court not to reverse the obstruction statute or he’ll seek longer sentences for J6ers. His wife is President of a far left radical group demanding Clarence Thomas resign. They both want to discredit the Supreme Court along with the Biden Administration and the Far Left. The Marxists want to destroy our country, our Constitution and the political rights of our citizens. They have no bottom as to the depths they’ll go.   GUEST: JULIE KELLY, SUBSTACK “DECLASSIFIED WITH JULIE KELLY” See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

WILL IT HAPPEN AGAIN?

Conservative Commentator Laura Loomer says Supreme Court Justices hearing the First Amendment case Missouri v. Biden revealed that we now have full blown Marxists like Ketanji Brown Jackson serving on the Supreme Court who do not respect the Constitution. And the Democrats want to pack the Supreme Court with more who think just like her. We’ve learned that Facebook and Twitter both took orders from the White House and held private meetings with the FBI to shut down certain social media users. We’re seven months out from the election and nothing’s been done to address censorship. What’s to stop this from happening again? Loomer says Republicans don’t really want to do anything about the open border either. If they had the courage, they’d shut down the government instead of passing continuing resolutions. Loomer says the Democrat Party is a party that hates Israel. Whether it’s Chuck Schumer calling for new elections in Israel or the Biden Administration forcing them into a ceasefire or be punished in the aid they receive from the United States. Loomer says only 20-25% of Jews vote Republican. What else do they need to see after Oct. 7th that’s going to tell them the Democrat Party is not in their best interest? Loomer says Jewish people have made decisions against their best interests throughout history and continue to vote 75-80% Democrat.   GUEST: LAURA LOOMER, “LOOMERED” PODCAST See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

FREE SPEECH IS THREAT TO MARXIST DEMS

Thanks to Anthony Fauci’s deposition, former FBI Special Agent Elvis Chan’s deposition and various emails back and forth uncovered by then Missouri AG Eric Schmitt back in 2020, it demonstrated a vast and sprawling censorship enterprise throughout the highest levels of our government to senior executives of the biggest social media companies in the world, telling them to take down information or else. They became state actors by extension because of the enormous power govt. was willing to wield. Now U.S. Senator, Schmitt says we have never seen an administration in our history that’s been so willing to go after their political opponents with the weaponization of the justice system. Elon Musk bought Twitter and now all of his companies are under investigation. Schmitt says this is the kind of power an administration can wield. We’re talking about the President of the United States claiming that social media companies were killing people. They were having weekly censorship meetings. It was a very coordinated effort using secret portals to flag conversations. It was a massive operation meant to silence critics. These companies weren’t doing it on their own. They were being coerced by big government and that’s why it violates the First Amendment. Fauci admitted he made up the six-foot social distancing theory. We now know the efficacy of masks was a lie. The Wuhan Lab leak we now know was true. Hunter Biden’s laptop they debunked as Russian disinformation before the election, turned out to be true. That’s why it’s dangerous for govt. to get involved in telling people what they should believe, hear or say. Schmitt says corporate media has become the defenders of the Regime. They see Trump as such a threat that they’re willing to ignore the important role of free speech. They’re no longer interested in truth telling. They’re now just interested in defending the actions of the Democrats.   GUEST: U.S. SENATOR ERIC SCHMITT See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

BARR: BOY SCOUT OR CROOK?

America’s Mayor Rudy Giuliani says Judge McAfee is trying to play both sides against the middle. In allowing Fani Willis to stay on the case, he left several issues unresolved. Willis admitted she took money from her campaign and Giuliani says that’s a crime in the state of Georgia. We’re going to trial against the former President of the United States with a DA who has an unresolved, serious felony. She also committed perjury approximately five times in her testimony which would have put most people in prison. Giuliani wants to know how we ended up with the three worst prosecutors in America? And every one of them is a Democrat, not even a single Independent. Judge McAfee knows this is an important case of international importance. Having once worked for Willis, he and his wife also donated to her campaign. You should recuse yourself if you’re an honest judge. Fulton Co. Georgia is like New York, Chicago and Philadelphia, all run by the crooked Democrat machine. Giuliani became puzzled and disappointed in Bill Barr when he had Hunter Biden’s laptop and didn’t realize the imperative to examine it fully. Rarely does a prosecutor get a piece of evidence like this. It was the main focal point of the bag man, explaining why and what he’s been doing for the corrupt family business. It was self incriminating and Giuliani has never seen a more damaging piece of evidence in his career as a lawyer. You have to realize it implicates a possible future President of the United States of America. Barr could have investigated before Joe was even nominated. Instead, he watched Joe lie on television calling it Russian disinformation. You have to come forward if you’re the Attorney General. It wasn’t just lying, it involved our national security. These bribes were coming from our biggest enemy, China. Giuliani says there was no explanation for Barr other than something corrupt was going on. They had something on him because he changed. He went from being a boy scout to a cover-up artist.

CHINA MAKES ITS MOVE

Former NSA Senior Intelligence Analyst and Whistleblower Russ Tice says if the Chinese were to invade Taiwan, they’d want favorable weather conditions and March and April would be the best times to do that. China is conducting drills feigning an attack then pulling back, perhaps conditioning Taiwan into a false sense of security thinking they’re just drills until at some point, China actually goes through with it. Tice says the Chinese are very good at masking things, limiting radio frequency communications, building underneath huge expansive tarps meant to look like ground cover. The Chinese know what we have and they do things to mitigate our capabilities. The Chinese have hypersonic missiles which force our carriers to remain distant. Along with ironclad control of China, Xi Jinping has fired anyone he considered weak in the military, anyone who’s not a hardliner. He has said he will take Taiwan by force if necessary and he’s made sure everyone in the military is ready to roll when the time comes. Tice says the threat coming across our southern border is real. China is basically setting up an army within our own country. Perhaps if we try to respond to something they do in Southeast Asia, they’ll have saboteurs here ready to blow up our communications infrastructure. Tice says our President is owned by China. He believes if something is going to happen, it’s going to happen now.   GUEST: RUSS TICE, FORMER NSA SENIOR INTELLIGENCE ANALYST AND WHISTLEBLOWER See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

BIDEN IS DEMENTED AND ARROGANT

Representative Cory Mills says this President has continued to show a pattern of abandonment of Americans. We saw it in 2021 in Afghanistan. Following Oct. 7th, Mills led the first overland rescue of Americans, getting more than 255 Americans out of Israel. And now Haiti, Mills rescued ten Americans while the State Department told stranded Americans they were working on a plan only to find out the plan was to rescue themselves. Mills says he will not allow the guy in the Oval Office to defy the American spirit. If he’s unwilling to rescue Americans, Mills is willing to step up and has done so repeatedly. Mills says Haiti is dumping their prisons right now. It’s so violent that the Dominican Republic is turning Haitians away. Meanwhile, Biden is thinking of bringing them over in boats, unvetted, to our shores. And it’s all because our adversaries don’t fear us and our allies don’t trust us and it’s thanks to the ignorance of this Biden Administration.  GUEST: REP.

WILL AMERICA BE HUMBLED?

Rep. Eli Crane says the Republican Party should be America First and it makes decisions really simple. When it comes to Ukraine, we shouldn’t be sending tens of millions of dollars to one of the most corrupt countries in the world, escalating a war with Putin who has more nuclear weapons than any other country in the world. If you put America First, it simplifies decisions that may seem complicated. While Biden, McConnell and others may appear to favor escalation into WW3, Crane says we don’t have the leadership necessary to win a war of this magnitude against this adversary. And we don’t have the resources to fund a war when we’re $34 trillion in debt but so many on Capitol Hill have an obsession with Ukraine. Crane says there’s been a patriot purge in the military for some time and it’s why recruitment is down. This isn’t the same military of the past that prepared for readiness. They’re not focused on lethality. They’re now focused on social experiments, DEI and wokeness. While that permeated our culture, it had not reached the military until now. Crane believes the U.S. will be humbled and lose on the battlefield unless we get back to being the baddest military on the planet.   GUEST: REP.

ROB O’NEILL: RULING OVER THE ASHES

Former U.S. Navy Seal Rob O’Neill says if you’re apologizing to the murderer who is an illegal immigrant for calling him an “illegal” instead of apologizing to the family for calling the murder victim the wrong name, it shows you exactly where the Democrat Party stands.  It’s one thing to see a family crossing the border for a better life but that’s not who’s coming. O’Neill is seeing lines filled with military age males. He saw a man from Syria wearing tactical gear. It’s not just Syria, it’s ISIS, it’s Hezbollah, it’s Iran, It’s China. O’Neill says there are more Chinese men crossing the border in San Diego than from Mexico. These men are coming here for a reason. Marxists will burn the city down just to rule over the ashes and that’s what’s happening. We’re seeing destabilization on almost every continent, too much to be a coincidence. O’Neill says with chaos comes the eventuality of One World Order and One World Government which has been their plan the entire time of the Great Reset plan of the World Economic forum. It’s when powers that be can eventually be in charge of everything.  These unelected officials don’t want a strong America. They hate Western society. They want to take us down so they can rule over the ashes. They see what’s happening in Haiti as a good thing. More migrants, bring them here, more chaos. O’Neill says there’s a reason all those Chinese soldiers are in San Diego and sit across the border in Mexico. China has enough Special forces here waiting to see if we defend Taiwan against a Chinese invasion. O’Neill says he wishes he could shake the American public and tell them about what’s going on but they’re too busy watching the Kardashians or March Madness. The devil is coming. O’Neill says our military recruiting and retention is bad yet we have transgender people out explaining how diversity is our strength when it’s clearly not. Our strength is submarines with nuclear weapons and aircraft carriers. O’Neill says the sad truth is when the fight does come to America, he doesn’t expect a lot of Gen Z’ers with purple hair will be able to fight and it’s going to be a sad day when we have to find out.   GUEST: ROB O’NEILL, FMR.

BIDEN'S CHINA DREAMS

Joe Biden’s policies by design destructive of every foundation our country is built on, the American Middle Class now under assault by almost 15 million illegal aliens who’ve entered the country in the first 3 years of the Biden Regime. Our Constitutional Republic, the Executive branch and Judicial filled with Marxist Dem activists, and the Deep State through the Defense Dept, State Dept and Intelligence agencies asserting American power against all that is in our interest and appeasing China, Iran and Russia in every way that undercuts America’s national interest. And all the while building out a federal govt that is now peopled by Marxist Dems and anti Americans that will be almost impossible to overcome unless Donald Trump is elected this year. Biden’s caring out secret meetings with our enemies, embracing their totalitarianism and insisting on everything, from Corporate America to Wall street to public schools and higher education line up with DEI, CRT, and ESG. And as for the elections this year, the Marxist Dem power structure has been strengthened not weakened over the past 3 years. And only President Trump has even the possibility of breaking their hold on all the levers of power they now control.   GUEST: MIKE BENZ, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF FOUNDATION FOR FREEDOM ONLINE See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
