10:04 pm
dissatisfied with the intelligence that he received ro far into the origins of covid-19 saying i have now asked the intelligence community to redouble their efforts to collect and analyze information that could bring us closer to a definitive conclusion and report back to me in 90 days. the president adding to camps in the i see the intelligence community one that believes the virus in crude and naturally and another that believes it did leak from the wuhan lab both have low to moderate confidence in their findings according to the president, the state department is pushing back on the widely spread report yesterday that it shut down the small state department team at the bureau of arms and control and verification that was looking into the origins of the covid-19 virus, that was reported everywhere yesterday, here's a statement today from state department can price come he says that reporting is incorrect in february march 2021
10:05 pm
the findings were briefed to a bcm policy planning and staff in the new administration with the report delivered, the work was ended that is certainly up for debate depending on who you speak tol in washington intend the national security council is taking the lead in thathi investigation, however, the white house statement don't answer the important question why bother with the probe that was already set into motion from former secretary of state mike pompeo in the first place nor did they offer any evidence that probe was flawed. meantime the lab leak theory continues tont gain interest. liz: thank you for joining us it's great to see you, thank you for coming on house intelligence ranking member is california congressman devin nunes, they stand for joining us it's good to see you. you and your fellow republicans did a lot of work, what word is u.s. intelligence know about the virus potentially leaking from
10:06 pm
the wuhan t lab. >> we don't know what we don't know we know that we have informants and whistleblowers within the i see who havee come forward to say a lot of their concerns were suppressed, this whole issue in the state department wasn't shut down, they completely eliminated it entirely. o all we did on our committee we were actually, the republicans were able to take all sorts of r open-source information and put into a report and everybody could go read it if you go to my website. we found so much information, on the other hand there is no information that would support our intelligence that i've ever seen that would support the intelligence community assessment a year ago whiche looks to be at this point purely political and if i take you back and walk your viewers back to what was going on at that time,
10:07 pm
we had nancy pelosi running around chinatown say that donald trump and republicans weree racist, no need to be on a flight, dr. fauci saying you don't need to wear a mask this is occurring at the same time, will happen within the intelligence agencies and all through br chrissy seems to be rotting from the bin, is run to the core which was we have to continue this narrative the republicans are racist and what do we need to do we need toe coe out and say intelligence believes this is something that happened in the wild the only evidence for that would be the chinese communist party said it in the world health organization which ran a bogus w investigatin with 0 credibility which met new york's experts even said that they followed us on behalf of the chinese communist party there is overwhelming circumstantial evidence that this was not naturally occurring and i think the way that this virus spread and as contagious as it is and strange as it's
10:08 pm
been most americans know that is not naturallycu occurring. liz: they haven't on the host for this, they studied 80000 different animal samples, the wuhan lab had tens of thousands of virus samples, the w.h.o. director said investigate the lab leak theory, 18 scientist including caltech, stanford, harvard, yale investigated it. cdc director said the possibility, dr. fauci, we found footage you know the doctor echo health alliance that got money from the nih and turned around the wuhan lab doctor peter disick he's throwing cold water on the lab leak theory, he is saying that is not true, he admits and about to show that he has been researching viruses inside china for 6 - 7 years and
10:09 pm
he worked with the wuhan lab to spike viruses to make a man-made lab generate virus not seen in nature. let's take a listen to this, i want your reaction on the other side of it. watch this. >> we focused on coronavirus emerging from the market and was the first pandemic of the century, a big event so we started to trace back from the wildlife market which species carry the virus, we found it was the original idea so then where did they come from we went to southern china and did surveillance across southern china and we've now found after six or seven years of doing this over 100 songs related coronavirus, very close to stars. liz: he also said there was
10:10 pm
another part of the sound that we needed to show that they did work on creating and developing in order to get vaccines as spike protein that they were manipulating the virus inside the lab to put a spike protein in the virus, this time i fall under the obama administration, your reaction toat the sound. >> i would say this we also know that chinese communist party army also operate and has a biological warfare capability that they are operating out of the lab, you couple that with what this gentleman said and if you look at our report there ise overwhelming circumstantial evidence and you have to taken to account what i said earlier why were we followed the chinese communist party talking point, they're the only ones that seem to say that this came from
10:11 pm
someone who might aid him back and be a little bits of pieces but that's essentially what they have said and here we are over t year later 0 evidence of that, you think instead of covering everything up and not being truthful, they would come out and get ahead of this and all sorts of information they had over a year to do it, you put all this together and it becomes atpretty clear that this was likely some type of modified virus to some degree that probably leaked out. liz: dr. fauci in a washington post op-ed s in 2011 said creata lab generated virus not seen in nature, he co-authored the op-ed in 2015 the scientist leading the wuhan lab wrote an article saying the nih did fund this and we created a virus not seen in nature inside our lab and they're also saying out of the wuhan lab the scientist is
10:12 pm
saying the scope in 19 virus that is infecting people around the world does not exist in wuhan, it only exists in subtropical china. here are the key questions, who signed off on this research, who approved the money flow under the obama administration, what controls put in place and what are taxpayers getting for their money. >> go back, where were we ten days ago, republicans on the house intelligence committee came out and told biden we had 25 questions for you and we made that public, fox news broke that with maria bartiromo and her sunday show. a few days later wee issued a report and now all of a sudden you have all the fake news and everybody saying this might've been possible, let me take back a year ago when senator cotten was raising these concerns, president trump secretary pompeo, director ratcliffe, everybody wasy looking at the intelligence and saying there seems to be something missing
10:13 pm
how about supplying a little common sense and it looks like you raise this issue with doctor fauci not been totally clear in the senate with a $100 million i know you will cover later in the show in more depth but there's $100 million of u.s. taxpayer money that is missed somewhere. so the idea that we would even be working on these viruses b doing this work, i understand there could be health benefits but what is clear when you have the chinese communist party trying to take over the world, we ought to cut off everything with china at this point and kthat is really what is strang, why would biden go in and shut down this operation in the state department that he did, why would it take this long, why would it be house republicans in the minority that we would have to, put pressure told timidly

10:28 pm
secretary, to your point he says inflation is here 7.5% annualized, that is big that the tax on the middle class he is saying democrats could lose because inflation led to the election of former president richard nixon in 1968 and former president ronald reagan in 1980, isn't that big of a threat right now. >> is a huge threat and i see comparisons between former presidentde jimmy carter and president joe biden i think that's serious and that analogy is correct when we look at the economic situation were in now. if you look at the rise in our debt 28 trillion alone, they are saying our debt is going to exceed the size of the economy by 107% this year, that is enormous and debilitating and worse yet they want to put thear huge massive trillion dollar proposal together and have the largest tax hike and a break in history to pay for all of this

and compound on the american people. liz: stanley and other wall street pros, you have to listen to him he made the right profitable but on great britain sterling leaving the european exchange rate and 92, that sounds wonky what it means the u.s. dollar loses its reserved status around the world because people are saying u.s. treasuries are not going to be a safe asset with all the money printing and borrowing. that means the u.s. won't be able to borrow more truthfully than other countries something that we've enjoyed since world war ii because biden is destroying the credibility of the dollar with t high inflatio, and other words after world war ii the u.s. was pumping up the factories, the dollar became a globalfa reserve, could we lose that status? >> get to that helps when we devalue the dollar were gonna
10:30 pm
help her adversaries in china and russia and give them a leg up when that happens, you look at our spending $28 trillion in debt, our deficit is 3 trillion accounting the federal reserve is going to. $4 trillion a share adding to inflation, this is a real threat and the threat try national security quite frankly. liz: congresswoman mays, thank you for joining us, come backgo soon. just ahead brought gerard weizen on this controversy why is cnn pushing back and pushing back hard on investigating whether covid-19 leaked from the wuhan lab, don't you want to know something that killed 600,000 americans and three and half million people worldwide, that story next. >> last year one fact checker at the washington post we need a fact checker for the fact checker a complete moron ken

10:36 pm
director says look into it and dr. fauci said that the possibility cnn is politicizing same there blaming trump pushing the theory to distract from his mismanagement of the pandemic. what do you say is. >> thank you for having me on rising been watching cnn for the past 15 months according to them everything that we did was antiscience races, politically motivated or all of the above and i think their heads are spinning around because they're realizing the president trump, secretary pompeo and all of us were correct that the most likely source was the wuhan t laboratory i think they cannot deal i with it but the facts remain, i concluded this martson cdc director concluded earlier than that that the most likely source is the wuhan lab. liz: scientists we have been talking to keep saying the coronavirus with the spike protein they have not founded in nature they have not found the intermediary host, they tested
10:37 pm
tens of thousands of animals defined in china and they have not found it earlier in the show we showed a soundbite from doctor peter disick he's throwing cold water on the idea that it leaked from the wuhan lab. he got money from the nih enter did over, he admits they have been spiking viruses creating man-made viruses inside china, here's what he said about manipulating viruses inside lives inbo china, watch. >> protein drives the weather, you can get the sequence, build the protein, and of the virus and do some work in the lab, the logical perfection vaccines if you developed a vaccine for sars people use pandemic sars but
10:38 pm
let's try to set some of the other related and get a better vaccine. liz: you see that they inserted a spike protein peter disick said get a better vaccine wide give a pass to china cnn and take their word when doctor peter disick said that's what they were doing. >> it is really very clear that that research was going on at the wuhan lab if you look at peter disick and ih portfolio everything from a from the last six or seven years as baths and coronavirus is very clear in the paper that they publish that you pointed out 2015 that they were doing manipulation to create viruses with higher profit major city which means were dangerous. i don't understand why there's so much controversy if it looks like a duck, walks like a duckal and quacks, you've got yourself a dock, this is the center of that research in china, china covered up everything that they could blamed it on the u.s. military and president,
10:39 pm
everything aside from the obvious conclusion that the lab that was doing coronavirus research with gain-of-function with american money through dr. fauci institute is likely the source of the worldwide pandemic. liz: any rational reasonable person would say what were about to show his off-the-wall it cnn chris cuomo watch how we tries to argue that he's exposing trump and his team for exploiting the covid lab leak theory for political gain but then he had yaleti scientist to said it could be true. >> it is how people are exploiting the unknown the bs that we t have to expose this theory that it was from the labl is gaining traction especially here in political circles on the right but it's something that trump and company have been pushing for more than a year. >> they did investigate 80000
10:40 pm
different animal samples for impossible evidence of sars cove e2 it causes the covid-19 pinned him again have not found it, they also have not found any evidence of a lab leak either and they did not report on the lab leak part of the investigation very well. liz: here's the facts, by the way it's not a right wing theory, there's democrat scientist and reporter saying look into it is incorrect to say the w.h.o. report, hundreds of pages more than 300 pages only devoted four pages to the coded lab leak in wuhan. >> you're exactly right, i was a u.s. representative to the executive order of u the w.h.o.i was held up for a long time so we did not have a member during this, time when it was happening but the w.h.o. report only devoted the four pages but the rest of the hundred pages prove
10:41 pm
beyond a shadow of a doubt that there was no evidence of this virus in nature and to me this was near smoking gun after looking at tens of thousands of animals in the region there was nothing within decades of the virus that we had, heidi accelerate evolution you do it in the laboratory you could do that naturally in a laboratory by passing the virus to make it worse or manipulating, that report was actually very important and what is said about nature and there's a lot that needs to be done but how are we going to get inside the chinese communist party that controls information and they've had a cover-up industry materials, you're never going to get the true inside information unless we have a human source and my god how dangerous would that be for someone to admit that from china. liz: you have to say there are heroes inside china there's whistleblowers inside china there are heroes trying to do the right thing to say what went
10:42 pm
on this is not a racial issue this is an issue about authoritarian communist government covering up the cnn is saying trump was trying to scapegoat china and making racist comments deflecting from his poor political performance. stop the politicizing three and half million people died, 6000 americans died how about trust the science and follow the science, let's be open to the possibilities, where is a journalism that cnn why are they such a failure and politicizing everything. >> i was at the white house every day from march of 2020 throughout the end of the administration there was no xenophobia involved is just calling the facts the facts, this virus originated in china that is a true fact it is becoming more likely that it was from a lab leak, i don't believe the chinese released intentionally, it is possible but i certainly do not believe
10:43 pm

10:56 pm
liz: we hear i.c.e. officials are afraid of being reprimanded by the homeland security officials in washington, is that what's happening, absolutely attracted many border agents in the past and they are told to keep her mouth shut and not talk about what's going on on the border and that's a whole narrative since the beginning since biden opened up the border and empower the cartels to make billions of dollars in the biden administration doesn't want transparency, the cartels are making a thousand dollars per person they have a huge incentive to bring his money people here as they can. he is a former customs and border protection he is saying hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants that's what he's
10:57 pm
saying and mayorkas security aisecretary testimony was asked are you going to talk people in this country illegally and he said home and going to track 11 million people, that was his answer, what do you say to that. >> is a pathetic answer i would love if they would instead of tracking, stopping people from crossing the border go back to t the policies that worked in these immigration statistics were declining and border patrol was doing the job as we use the migrant protocol protections and we kept people in mexico and stop the whole catch and release program, the biden administration for some reason restarted. we know what works and for some reason the biden administration has favor the cartels in this particular scenario. liz: a lot of border authorities including mark morgan said the biden administration policies enables human trafficking that they're encouraging and

10:59 pm
coming across when i was in laredo i think the numbers are up almost three times they were because of border is still open it's a security issue and people are coming for many, many countries and we don't know who they are and whatin they're comg from and what their motivations are this will be a problem in the future and we will have issues related to this as it relates too national security if the biden administration does not stop this soon. liz: the biden administration has been accused by texas democrat henry cuellar and mitch mcconnell painting a false picture of the border with the photos of answer border facilities and moving unaccompanied children from one agency in another, they look lower and look better, are youin seeing anything else that they're doing to paint a picture. >> hell yeah,, no doubt i showed up and they will not tell you where these kids are going, there being moved all over the country when and where and it's
