WEBVTT

1
00:00:05.519 --> 00:00:11.839
<v Speaker 1>This is the seventy seven WABC Mini cast. Excellent work

2
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:14.439
<v Speaker 1>by Rand Paul and my next guest who's become one

3
00:00:14.439 --> 00:00:17.079
<v Speaker 1>of my real buddies and government today. He's the amazing

4
00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:20.519
<v Speaker 1>senator from the state of Wisconsin, the great Ron Johnson.

5
00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:23.120
<v Speaker 1>And Ron, you guys did all you can do. A

6
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:25.760
<v Speaker 1>couple of weeks ago, you and Paul hammered them, and

7
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.120
<v Speaker 1>then last week when you once again had the hearing

8
00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:31.719
<v Speaker 1>to hold him in contempt, you guys have pretty much

9
00:00:31.719 --> 00:00:33.600
<v Speaker 1>done all you can do. Would you like to see

10
00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:36.640
<v Speaker 1>the President maybe sit down with Todd Blanche and talk

11
00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:38.560
<v Speaker 1>about a possible prosecution.

12
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:43.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, good morning, said Well, first of all, Faucci's own documents,

13
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:47.719
<v Speaker 2>his own words is what nailed him. That's what the

14
00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:52.479
<v Speaker 2>American people need to see. I like seeing prosecuted. Unfortunately,

15
00:00:52.479 --> 00:00:55.759
<v Speaker 2>Biden did give me a sweeping pardon which shields him

16
00:00:55.759 --> 00:01:00.320
<v Speaker 2>from federal prosecution. But I've spoken with the Terran Jennifer Florida.

17
00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:02.719
<v Speaker 2>He seems to be pretty interested in seeing what state

18
00:01:02.840 --> 00:01:06.359
<v Speaker 2>charges they can bring. I know Coach Tumberville probably going

19
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:08.519
<v Speaker 2>to be the next governor of Alabama. He's made the

20
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.159
<v Speaker 2>same that he'd like to see Fauci in court every

21
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:14.280
<v Speaker 2>day for the rest of his life. But yeah, let's

22
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:17.760
<v Speaker 2>face it, there's no doubt about it that Fauci held

23
00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:21.480
<v Speaker 2>Congress and contempt, but even more importantly, he's held the

24
00:01:21.519 --> 00:01:26.760
<v Speaker 2>American public in contempt. And the first thing this was

25
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.159
<v Speaker 2>happening right now, and it started a couple of Wednesdays ago,

26
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:33.359
<v Speaker 2>is we're exposing the truth. He's no longer Saint Fauci

27
00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:35.560
<v Speaker 2>at least two about half America. I think it was

28
00:01:35.719 --> 00:01:39.920
<v Speaker 2>pretty astonishing was how democrats in that hear and continue

29
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:42.439
<v Speaker 2>to defend him like he is some kind of you know,

30
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Sainted Knight. You know White Knight came in, you know,

31
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:51.000
<v Speaker 2>saved millions of lives during COVID. No, he just destroyed lives,

32
00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:55.400
<v Speaker 2>He destroyed economies. And now we have access to his phones.

33
00:01:56.159 --> 00:01:58.760
<v Speaker 2>We've we've been able to download the information thirty four

34
00:01:58.799 --> 00:02:03.200
<v Speaker 2>thousand texts. What is odd is he only has three contacts.

35
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:06.239
<v Speaker 2>The rest of those texts are associated with a phone number,

36
00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:10.080
<v Speaker 2>which is going to obviously complicate our efforts to trying

37
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:14.280
<v Speaker 2>to piece this all together. But we're on the case

38
00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:19.680
<v Speaker 2>and it's really it's really important to have documents like texts,

39
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.759
<v Speaker 2>like emails, and of course we know that his one

40
00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:25.520
<v Speaker 2>of his lieutenants, doctor David Morins, is my staff that

41
00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:28.680
<v Speaker 2>pick that need allowed the hay stack in terms of

42
00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:34.080
<v Speaker 2>an emails that Doctor Morins sets somebody saying, don't send

43
00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:37.080
<v Speaker 2>me emails. You know, I've got this spoil lady that says,

44
00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:39.919
<v Speaker 2>you know, showed me how to make emails disappear. And

45
00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:42.199
<v Speaker 2>we're starting to see that pattern as we do this

46
00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:46.840
<v Speaker 2>investigation into the CDC and FDA actions during COVID, people

47
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:50.360
<v Speaker 2>were I think improperly, if not illegally, deleting emails not

48
00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:53.800
<v Speaker 2>only from their devices, but even further deleting them off

49
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:57.240
<v Speaker 2>the server, which is extremely suspicious. Now now you have

50
00:02:57.319 --> 00:03:01.159
<v Speaker 2>to have you know, people cooperating with that. So you know,

51
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:04.879
<v Speaker 2>my investigation has only just begun because we only just

52
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:08.120
<v Speaker 2>got documents. I've been doing oversight for years, never got

53
00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:12.599
<v Speaker 2>anything out of the Biden to HHS. Finally Boby Kennedy

54
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.280
<v Speaker 2>with his commitment to the radical transparency, we got eleven

55
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.000
<v Speaker 2>million pages. We have all these devices. Now we just

56
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:21.800
<v Speaker 2>got his fauci's phone. So now the information is coming

57
00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:25.159
<v Speaker 2>to the front. And again it's gonna take us time

58
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:27.199
<v Speaker 2>to go through those foreign records to be able to

59
00:03:27.400 --> 00:03:30.080
<v Speaker 2>release those publicly responsibly. You know, I don't want to.

60
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:33.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to provide personal information on anybody, or

61
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:39.280
<v Speaker 2>even Fauci's personal information that don't sickly relate to you know,

62
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:42.560
<v Speaker 2>public policy and what he did within that realm.

63
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:45.919
<v Speaker 1>You know, you mentioned Governor Tuberville and I was a

64
00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:48.319
<v Speaker 1>big band of his when he was coaching Oburn football.

65
00:03:48.439 --> 00:03:51.120
<v Speaker 1>And of course he's all leaving the Senate. So there's

66
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:52.759
<v Speaker 1>a seat we got to bill, We got to Bill.

67
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:56.520
<v Speaker 1>It looks like Marshall Blackburn seat in Tennessee. She's running

68
00:03:56.520 --> 00:03:59.919
<v Speaker 1>for governor. But tomorrow, outside of Tony Fauci is a

69
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:03.599
<v Speaker 1>big primary day for five states, including yours. And I

70
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:06.120
<v Speaker 1>know you know this, Ron Johnson, but all the media

71
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:09.439
<v Speaker 1>is talking about your states specifically because you have a

72
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:15.439
<v Speaker 1>legitimate lunatic, a legitimate psycho. This Francesca Hang, the same

73
00:04:15.520 --> 00:04:18.399
<v Speaker 1>lady who said that we should no longer celebrate Thanksgiving

74
00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:20.759
<v Speaker 1>in the United States. I think she's gone back on that,

75
00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:23.160
<v Speaker 1>but it's too late to thirty seven. She's a real

76
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:26.800
<v Speaker 1>Dsay lunatic and her primary comes up in your great

77
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:31.879
<v Speaker 1>pit of Wisconsin tomorrow. How fearful should Wisconsin people be

78
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:37.560
<v Speaker 1>an Americans with this lady wanting for governor in your state, well.

79
00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:39.759
<v Speaker 2>As long as she doesn't get elected governor, there's probably

80
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:43.000
<v Speaker 2>nothing to fear. But that's an open question. You know,

81
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:46.319
<v Speaker 2>the Democrat Party just basically imploded on itself. They had,

82
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:50.199
<v Speaker 2>you know, what they would consider more modern candae. I

83
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:52.319
<v Speaker 2>think there are a bunch of radical leapsues myself, but

84
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:56.160
<v Speaker 2>the one self proclaimed socialist is the only person basically

85
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:59.319
<v Speaker 2>left standing with by the way, all the early voting

86
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:03.199
<v Speaker 2>there there's a move when Sarah Rodriguez dropped out, Mandela

87
00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:05.879
<v Speaker 2>Barnes dropped out that Democrats want, well, can I recall

88
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:09.399
<v Speaker 2>my apstey b out and revote? You know, that's the

89
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:12.000
<v Speaker 2>problem with early voting, which is why we probably ought

90
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:14.399
<v Speaker 2>to restrict it to a much narrower time frame so

91
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:17.480
<v Speaker 2>that all the information can be can come out before

92
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:20.879
<v Speaker 2>you start voting. So now Democrats are starting to see that, well,

93
00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:22.839
<v Speaker 2>there's kind of kind of backfires on you every now

94
00:05:22.839 --> 00:05:24.839
<v Speaker 2>and again when you try and make you know, it's

95
00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:28.120
<v Speaker 2>so permissive in terms of these elections. But you know,

96
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:31.759
<v Speaker 2>lay that aside. No, we've got Francesca Hung is a

97
00:05:32.040 --> 00:05:35.079
<v Speaker 2>radical leftist, and of course she's backtracking from all her

98
00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:38.199
<v Speaker 2>previous stances. In other words, she's lying about what she

99
00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:41.519
<v Speaker 2>truly believes and trying to pull the wool over the

100
00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:46.160
<v Speaker 2>eyes of Wisconsins. I hope and pray that that won't happen. Yeah,

101
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:46.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

102
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:48.519
<v Speaker 1>I think she's going to win tomorrow, but anyway, at

103
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:50.879
<v Speaker 1>any rate, you know, it was nice to see Tom

104
00:05:50.959 --> 00:05:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Cotton on with Mark Levin this weekend saying what I've

105
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:56.519
<v Speaker 1>been saying all alone, and that is ron that this

106
00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:59.759
<v Speaker 1>common sense Democrat thing doesn't exist, you know. I mean,

107
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:02.399
<v Speaker 1>I guess Mansen was close when he was there, but

108
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:05.759
<v Speaker 1>he's gone out of West Virginia. There's only one John Betterman.

109
00:06:05.800 --> 00:06:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Now you'll with these people every day. I'm just a

110
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:11.040
<v Speaker 1>radio guy. I only see one John Betterman. And I

111
00:06:11.079 --> 00:06:13.120
<v Speaker 1>was happy to hear again Tom Cotton say the same

112
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:16.240
<v Speaker 1>thing this weekend. Am I missing some real good, common

113
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:18.319
<v Speaker 1>sense Democrats that you get to work with every day.

114
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:21.800
<v Speaker 2>Well, first of all, Francesca Hong will win the primary.

115
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:23.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't think the same question about that. She's the only

116
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.000
<v Speaker 2>one left standing. It's the general election. We need to

117
00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:29.639
<v Speaker 2>make sure she's defeated. But no, listen whether whether they

118
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:33.879
<v Speaker 2>profess it openly or whether they're you know, their closet

119
00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:36.920
<v Speaker 2>radical eleptis. Basically they're all radical eleptists, or at least

120
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:39.279
<v Speaker 2>they joined the team that is now run by the

121
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:43.079
<v Speaker 2>radical leftists, by the Bernie Sanders type, by the Francesca

122
00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:46.000
<v Speaker 2>hon type. So no, that's what soul alarming did is.

123
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:48.480
<v Speaker 2>You know, in the past, democrats had had to hide

124
00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:51.639
<v Speaker 2>their true beliefs, that they really were closet socials or

125
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:56.920
<v Speaker 2>Communists or Marxist. Now it's out in the open, after mom, Donnie,

126
00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:00.160
<v Speaker 2>who will probably do a great deal harm in New

127
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:02.360
<v Speaker 2>York and hopefully New Yorkers and the rest of nation

128
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:05.319
<v Speaker 2>will will see the results of this. To me, when

129
00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:08.199
<v Speaker 2>you start talking about government run grocery stores and what

130
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:10.519
<v Speaker 2>a failure that will be, I me, it'll just create

131
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:17.240
<v Speaker 2>more food deserts. Right. Socialism has always failed, It always wills.

132
00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:21.199
<v Speaker 2>It sounds good, right, it just simply doesn't work. And

133
00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:24.079
<v Speaker 2>again I blame the legacy media and our educations for

134
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:28.319
<v Speaker 2>not educating our young people in the public in terms

135
00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:29.680
<v Speaker 2>of the dangers of socialism.

136
00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:33.199
<v Speaker 1>Well, you nailed it, legacy media and education. That's right.

137
00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:35.000
<v Speaker 1>These kids actually think this is a good thing. But

138
00:07:35.399 --> 00:07:38.319
<v Speaker 1>there is some buyers. Remorse, that's still early. This idiot

139
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:40.680
<v Speaker 1>has only been in office here for about eight months.

140
00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:42.759
<v Speaker 1>He's got three plus years to go. But there is

141
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:45.240
<v Speaker 1>some buyers and more so, what that's the good news,

142
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:47.439
<v Speaker 1>all right? Ron? So I wanted to see you on

143
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:49.759
<v Speaker 1>Maria yesterday, but you had Blackburn on instead. I love

144
00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:51.560
<v Speaker 1>when you going on that show because I think you're

145
00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:53.959
<v Speaker 1>the most knowledgeable guy in the Senate. And I said,

146
00:07:53.959 --> 00:07:56.480
<v Speaker 1>wait a second, Wait a second. The Save America Act

147
00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:59.560
<v Speaker 1>is not done. We've got to get that done. Reconciliation

148
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:01.759
<v Speaker 1>is not done. A few other things are not done. Listen,

149
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:04.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad that you guys power through about seventy five

150
00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:08.199
<v Speaker 1>Trump people, including Todd Blanche and he did some other things.

151
00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:11.079
<v Speaker 1>But it seems to me, if I'm wrong, run correct me.

152
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:14.439
<v Speaker 1>It seems to me like the Senate's got a lot

153
00:08:14.439 --> 00:08:16.439
<v Speaker 1>of work to do and you guys are off till

154
00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:19.240
<v Speaker 1>September the fourteenth. What the hell is that?

155
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:23.240
<v Speaker 2>So, first of all, understand, the reason we haven't passed

156
00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:28.160
<v Speaker 2>any election integrity measures is because Democrats are opposed to them.

157
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:31.120
<v Speaker 2>It's not you know, Republicans, we all vote for it.

158
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:35.840
<v Speaker 2>We proved that with our final vote late early in

159
00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:38.919
<v Speaker 2>the morning Saturday morning by once again bringing up a

160
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:43.360
<v Speaker 2>simple voter ID bill Democrats when we had say America

161
00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:46.039
<v Speaker 2>Act on the floor, we were debating a Democrats all professorial,

162
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:49.320
<v Speaker 2>we're for voter ID. Well, we gave them one last

163
00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:52.039
<v Speaker 2>opportunity it's not the last, but I mean another one

164
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:55.360
<v Speaker 2>to vote for a simple voter ID deal. None of

165
00:08:55.360 --> 00:08:57.320
<v Speaker 2>the other things that they object to. Our attachment is

166
00:08:57.360 --> 00:09:00.720
<v Speaker 2>simple vote ID. They all vote against its, Republicans all

167
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:03.159
<v Speaker 2>voted for it. When we come back, we will bring

168
00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:06.759
<v Speaker 2>up a sweetener. So okay, so you wouldn't do a

169
00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:08.919
<v Speaker 2>standalone vote idea, how about if we add to it

170
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:12.519
<v Speaker 2>a stock band, a stock trading band for members of Congress.

171
00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:16.159
<v Speaker 2>You know, we'll we'll we'll combine that. They'll probably vote

172
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:18.440
<v Speaker 2>that down. And then what we're going to do. I mean,

173
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:22.639
<v Speaker 2>I got let me finishers, Let me finishers with the

174
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:25.799
<v Speaker 2>consent of the President. I called him up Friday night

175
00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:30.000
<v Speaker 2>as a mister President. We're not sure whether we can

176
00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:33.039
<v Speaker 2>pass the bunch of reconciliations that the House passed. Okay,

177
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:35.039
<v Speaker 2>we just don't know. If you put it on the floor,

178
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:36.639
<v Speaker 2>you really don't know till you take a vote. But

179
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:41.360
<v Speaker 2>that reconciliation is inadequate. It does not provide the support

180
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:44.240
<v Speaker 2>for the finest among us and ben and win the military.

181
00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:48.360
<v Speaker 2>It's inacquate funding. From that standpoint, we need to take

182
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:50.720
<v Speaker 2>more time from a standpoint of what we need to do,

183
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:53.720
<v Speaker 2>what we can get in terms of election integerty measures

184
00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:56.919
<v Speaker 2>with a reconciliation. There are many other things we can

185
00:09:56.919 --> 00:09:59.919
<v Speaker 2>add to a reconciliation if we have the time. They

186
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:02.240
<v Speaker 2>they did a very skinny one, hoping we could quick

187
00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:05.559
<v Speaker 2>get it passed and then do a fourth reconciliation. I

188
00:10:05.559 --> 00:10:08.080
<v Speaker 2>think we just made the decision collectively, the House, the

189
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:10.919
<v Speaker 2>Send and the President. Okay, let's let's work hard on

190
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:14.919
<v Speaker 2>a much better budget reconciliation. So so we agreed to that,

191
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:17.960
<v Speaker 2>and so again I you know, we did. We accomplished

192
00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:21.360
<v Speaker 2>a lot, got Todd Blanche confirmed. We we again pointed

193
00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:24.960
<v Speaker 2>out that Democrats simply are opposed to election integrity, and

194
00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:27.360
<v Speaker 2>we agreed to work on a much better budget reconcilation

195
00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:28.480
<v Speaker 2>over the next coming months.
