12:01 am
country forcing students to get the covid vaccine when student is telling laura that she does not want to be part of this medical experiment. that interview later in the hour. but first we start with this question. of the lab leak theory is indeed true essence show has been saying what role did our own medical bureaucracy play in this fiasco. we already know the nih funneled taxpayer dollars to build will harm institute of virology for bat coronavirus research, even doctor fauci admits but still denies funding so-called gain of function experiments. >> you give the money and use it don't do gain of function research. >> correct. >> they said we won't. >> correct. >> you way no way of knowing accept you trust them. is that right? >> we generally always trust the grantee to do what they say. >> how do you know they didn't do the research and but put it
12:02 am
on their website? >> there is no way of guaranteeing that. >> fauci isn't saying he personally opposes gain of function research. in 2012 he offered his support for these risky experiments writing in a journal article the benefits of such experiments and the resulting knowledge outweigh the risks. it is more likely that a pandemic would occur in nature and the need to stay ahead of such a threat is a primary reason for performing an experiment that might appear to be risky. joining me is stephen mosher, author of bully of asia and president of population research institute, also joining use doctor scott jensen, family physician and michigan gubernatorial candidate, thank you for joining me. we do see all the time human beings thinking they know everything is what could go wrong but now we have a sense of what could go wrong.
12:03 am
when we think about gain of function research americans are hearing about this phrase. what exactly is this that fauci is such a fan of fans to be risky, to be worried about? >> doctor fauci is deflecting a bit but gain of function has three things, not two associated. one is it is an effort to make an organism more ferland, more pathogenic, creating a worse disease, that is one. the other thing is gain of function would come into play if you would increase the transmissibility but the other thing that matters quite a lot is to try to expand what targets that organism, that disease might target. it is all three of them and sometimes doctor fauci conveniently forgets it also includes to your going to target and what doctor fauci said long-awaited hard to trust because this is the same guy who
12:04 am
said heard immunity should be 60% and wearing double masks after being vaccinated -- >> this is remarkable. i want to talk with you about this as well because there are very serious questions we are only now coming out of the pandemic, we've got vaccine questions of course and yet this is sitting in the background as we wonder who funded this since we sent money and and can you've got fauci's comments about the benefits outweigh the risk. what do you say about that? >> i say that are on medical bureaucracy believe it or not played a role in the creation of the deadly virus. as you mentioned doctor fauci back in 2012 is advocating gain of function research despite the fact there was a moratorium on such risky research. what did we do? we taught chinese scientists how to carry out gain of function research in our own labs at the
12:05 am
university of north carolina and to make matters worse we sent money to china. he doesn't know how the money was spent. money is fungible. the chinese are interested in how to do gain of function research necessarily for scientific reasons, fauci's motives were scientific. he wants to stop dangerous pathogens from nature while fauci saw a potential cure for emerging diseases the chinese communist party saw new and deadly viruses themselves might be useful militarily. in my view they do that really set out to create deadly pathogens they could release upon the world and covid 19 is a result of these experiments. >> if we are recognizing someone might be interested in changing the natural virus to be a bio weapon why would you go to the chinese communist party to do that research for you and we
12:06 am
taught them how to do it and we have to presume that what they do at wuhan, that it won't even accidentally escape and yet there's clearly some dynamics where we have seen video of the researchers handling bats with their bare hands, getting bitten, blood going everywhere. seems to me a strange choice to cozy up to the chinese. >> it doesn't it worries me that after the new administration took office they quietly secretly into the state department investigation into covid's origins. we have to uncover china's crimes, can't help china cover up its crimes and last fall mike pompeo started this investigation it looks like all roads were leading to the wuhan lab and yet why would we cut this off as evidence is piling up? the first 3 cases of what abuse to be the covid 19 disease or
12:07 am
lab workers from this wuhan lab in november of 2019, what does that tell you? >> i want to bring you in here for a last word. as we look at the questions people are finally taking seriously. where do you think this leads in the end? >> robert redfield, former head of the cdc that i have to reconsider what i've been thinking, to me that was a huge shot across the about. is basically telling us he's not buying into the conventional narrative. doctor fauci is the same guy that more than a year ago set of someone disagrees it is noise or distraction. your honing in on that and he is getting nervous and getting a little bit at a time. >> over classic groupthink to be. appreciate your insight on this issue, existent shall be important. while nancy pelosi and chuck
12:08 am
schumer waste time obsessing over a totally unnecessary january 6th commission a vote which failed earlier today, a bipartisan of congressman are trying to create something show has called for. a covert origin commission, likewise the second house bill would allow the families of covid victims to sue the chinese government for damages but that is not all, 290 of the congressman sent a letter today to pelosi demanding she ordered democrat committee chairs to join their colleagues in investigating the origins of covid. one would think that be an easy decision, joining me now is one of the letters signatories texas congressman chip roy. thank you for joining me tonight. you say -- we know nancy pelosi doesn't listen to anybody but you say the democrat committee chairs are refusing to put any resources into funding the origins of covid, finding out, just to confirm because without
12:09 am
knowing where it came from we are at risk for it to happen again, aren't we? >> thanks for having me on, your previous just outlined all the concerns. a year ago i sent a letter asking to look into what was going on in wuhan making sure we pursue the truth. we know we had this two important reports from the state department saying you got a lab here that is out of control, researching on bats and coronavirus's and then what happened in november of 2019 the scientists in land and the chinese clamping down and shutting down so we want to know the truth. do you know how many hearings nancy pelosi and the democrats have had, 0.0. that is how many. that is unacceptable. we need to our job in house of representatives oversight, we need to find the truth of what
12:10 am
happened in wuhan, 600,000 dead americans, 100,000 small businesses close, children relegated to wearing masks in schools, not being able to be in school, we need answers about what the chinese were doing and the nih. >> sometimes people don't want answers because it can be difficult to get those answers and it can be frightening sometimes but we clearly cannot allow this to happen again, the answer is not to make sure everybody has lysol in their kitchen. fauci made it clear this week that if we never find the supposedly animal that gave covid to all the humans, that we will still not add any credence to the lab week theory. listen to this for a moment. >> have we found any animals that carry covid 19 that could
12:11 am
have been the source of the transmission to humans thus far? >> this final. >> at what point in time will become more likely it came from the lab if we don't find an intermediate analyst? how much longer? >> i don't think we can get the time element on that. >> is that kind of things that when we have this one argument, the nature of the transmission seems to be like we are being catholic. what is your take on that? >> i create a question that questioning at the center, which we could have questioning of the house of representatives. we are not doing that which is why we put the letter out and i want to say thank you to steve scalise who that that effort to demand that we get answers but here is the thing. i'm not interested in what doctor fauci have to say. he's more concerned about his own reputation, writing about what we need to do for this country and follow the signs, follow the truth, do the right thing to the people, not scaring the american people, shutting down businesses and not going after what is going on in china. >> it has turned into this year
12:12 am
inc. that is the focus of the damage done to the cdc and the nih has been extraordinary. science is supposed to be science and yet we've had politics throughout this. thank you for joining me, appreciate it. have a great night. here is laura. >> this one really important take away from the covid pandemic and it is that we need to immediately consider decoupling from china. our entertainment industry, education system, businesses and of course the financial markets. donald trump actually took action to do this in 2020 with an executive order that forced stock exchanges to do list companies that were working with the chinese military. that is a good start. it is important but more needs to be done. because the ccp benefits greatly from the hundreds of chinese companies that are still listed
12:13 am
on us stock exchanges. this is why my next guest is calling on president biden to expand the trump executive order and make sure it extends to all chinese companies aiding the ccp, not just the ones tied to chinese military. joining is the ceo of the coalition for a prosperous america. a lot of people are afraid to say this out to do you think there could be a groundswell building now given everything we know about china's long-term goals to do list completely these companies? >> yes, i really do. congress passed a law last year that said any chinese company that doesn't comply with our securities laws, and a jones, within 3 years need to be delisted. in the meantime we are helping chinese -- wall street is acting the chinese communist party to
12:14 am
raise trillions of dollars, the new york stock exchange, other capital markets, they are building weapons to use the us troops, helping the ccp, genocide, building dirty coal plants to produce cheap solar panels, advancing airplane to dominate the industries of the future. will: we just learned how involved china is in our media. new documents reveal the china daily paid $1.6 million for advertising campaigns, time magazine, the financial times, foreign-policy magazine, millions of american newspapers to print copies of its own publication. chinese state run media paying our news organizations to print propaganda. that is how desperate our media happened to be for ad dollars. what are we accomplishing here?
12:15 am
>> is you mentioned donald trump signed an executive order in november that would require companies that are listed by the department of defense as being owned or controlled by the ccp, that us investors can't invest in them anywhere in the world and that they can't be was to the us market so we can invest in them in frankfurt -- i'm sorry, in shanghai or anywhere in the world, that is the first time we have ever done sanctions against chinese companies. last week china mobile, china telecom and china unicom were delisted from the new york stock exchange, that is a good start. we are worried that president biden, you want him to continue that and broaden it to companies
12:16 am
that -- laura: we've got to move the ball down the field because of what, cut american academic institutions are also tied into china. they get a lot of money from chinese students, by the ccp to come here, to study here and our institutions, university campuses in china. what does that tell us and why is that even tolerated at this point? >> it really shouldn't be. the confucius institute in the us are just methods to control our universities, affect their education, the way they talk, the way they research issues and it really needs to stop. it is an arm of the ccp as well. laura: thank you. >> biden is putting in motion a plan to get the middle class and
12:17 am
12:21 am
12:22 am
something -- i expect it to last several more months and to see high annual rates of inflation to the end of this year. >> is not telling you president biden is trying to make sure inflation -- the new normal. the president putting forward the largest federal spending plan in history, a whopping $6 trillion. you won't see that money, you will be made poor. under biden's proposal trump's tax cuts for low and middle income americans will be allowed to expire in 2025 if these cuts aren't replaced for extended, biden would be breaking his promise to not raise taxes on anyone making less than 400,$000 a year. joining us now is doctor ben carson, former hud secretary and
12:23 am
founder of the american cornerstone institute. none of us are surprised the president biden is breaking a promise. many of the things that are said are from a grab bag just to get elected. this could be tragic if we continue to allow it to unfold. what is your take on this? is the sad part having spent my entire professional career as a surgeon concerned about the welfare of children is seeing what we are doing, these things cannot be done without consequences and it was thomas jefferson who said it is immoral to steal from future generations, that is exactly what we are doing, creating mountains of debt that someone has to -- not only that but even currently you look at the impact of flooding the system with the money but not having the
12:24 am
equivalent abundance of services, that automatically creates inflation as milton friedman eloquently talked about. it is almost as if we read all the books and said yes we too wants to have the same problems that argentina and venezuela had and all the countries who did the same thing, so that we are going to be different. i don't think we are going to be different and we are smart enough, we should be, the average american person knows that we are creating a monstrous problem for ourselves. >> we lived through the carter years, we've seen a lot of different presidencies. we've seen with what donald trump did but this is not normal, that leadership matters, standards can be set at is very
12:25 am
strange for adult people, men and women, president biden has been in office almost 50 years now, for them to suggest things that we know historically is not one successful effort to implement this, the spending of money, almost like monopoly money at this point, like it is water. >> that is correct and nowhere in the world, and they were historically as the big push to socialism worked. it always seems good in the beginning when you still have a pile of money to deal with, it is great until you run out of other people's money and you will run out of other people's money because first of all people won't be making as much money but also successful people will take their money and go elsewhere which is what happened in france some years ago when they became wild with their taxes and exactly what will happen to us as well not to mention the fact that we put a big stop sign on the manufacturing and some of the things that were drawing people
12:26 am
here. is going to have a horrible consequence. laura: it is a horrible thing to have to consider that they want this to occur that we have to make sure they are not successful. thank you for being with us tonight, your insight is always to. instead of heading of inflation the democrat-controlled congress went full steam ahead on the january 6th commission. we know what that is all about, targeting and punishing trump supporters, thankfully republicans blocked the commission legislation from passing in the senate earlier today, they accomplished something but now democrats are pushing for a select committee. joining is harmeet dhillon, attorney and ceo of the center for american liberty, her name and the name of her organization because of extraordinary work they do encouraging freedom and working on civil rights issues but aside from the political
12:27 am
motivations of everything congress is doing, what a commission or select committee actually get anything done and get any answers that already the fbi and the doj are working toward investigating, would accomplish anything different? >> absolutely not. you point to this in your opening that this is purely the election time come early and you can see that from the absolutely vicious tweets and comments democrat politicians and candidates are putting out about republicans voting it down. to the republicans who voted for this wrongheaded leave they should pay attention to this fact whether they voted for it or not democrats are smearing all republicans with this, not people who were there at this riot, people who broke and
12:28 am
entered into the capital republicans, this is political theater and we should see it for what it is and let the criminal process play itself out. there's a criminal process happening, i think overzealous but the site with only interferes with the testimony and keeps the focus off of the fixing of the problems in the country and it is a political stunt. >> it continues the division and that seems to be the vision, to continue to have us at each other's throats, to malign 75 million americans as terrorists, fear-based malignancy that perpetuates itself. a few other legal questions. the daily caller is suing mayor lori lightfoot of chicago for only granting interviews to journalists of color. to they had a case? >> they have a very good case. the first amendment and fourteenth amendment problem. a long history in the united states of making sure when politicians give access to the press they must do so on an
12:29 am
evenhanded basis. the left established a precedent against donald trump when he was in office, his private account he couldn't even block followers. this mayor is blocking reporters on the basis of their race so get out the checkbook, chicago. they are going to lose this one. >> this is the way to do it, briefly, university of north carolina chapel hill denied tenure to the 1619 project founder nicole hannah jones, she is considering suing the university alleging anti-democratic suppression. does she have a case on this? >> most are convenient including usc in north carolina is liberal and so the fact that even a liberal academic institution he couldn't tolerate this piece over academia but when you dig inter comments and the 3 sets of voice she has she's claiming that regardless of her scholarship she is entitled to tenure because previous people who held her chair got tenure,
12:30 am
nothing about the merits. she had bipartisan criticism of her shoddy journalistic and artistic endeavors so this is the right decision, good for unc, chapel hill. >> it goes back to entitlement again, great job again, thank you for joining me, appreciate it. anti-cop radicalism taking over the stanford university campus plus laura speaks to university of chicago student bravely speaking out against her school's vaccine mandate. stay right there. in? salonpas contains the most prescribed topical pain relief ingredient. it's clinically proven, reduces inflammation and comes in original prescription strength. salonpas. it's good medicine.
12:35 am
12:36 am
off of campus. their parents must be so proud. you heard them chant the fund the police but there other slogan is cop's off earth which other than being grammatically very that is rather threatening joining me to stanford university student and correspondent for campus reform, thank you for joining me stanford has a great reputation, is considered one of the better universities. it is not as good as usc but that seems a little crazy. all the students on that campus really want this? >> they are focused on total police abolition, they are organized by group of radicals known as a stanford. this is a very vocal, strong
12:37 am
minority on campus. participants as you mentioned say insane things like if the police and want to end see a end to bottle, they won't stop with abolishing police, they want to eradicate police off the face of the earth. >> couldn't they just go to minneapolis and see what it is like to even have not as many police or they could go to detroit or baltimore. all these great american cities, we know what happens when there is no police. it sounds like they don't want to be caught committing crimes. would want to know police at this point? >> colleges are where radicals go to test their visions and they spread like wildfire from those institutions. they recently hung a banner saying cops offers. when they say cops offers a minute. they have international ambitions, they are anti-semites as well as allied with palestinian liberation movements and maintenance cells a known enemy of israel on social media.
12:38 am
>> this is important and that campus reform you're doing this. a lot of people don't know this, they think they are just regular kids who went to school and turned into this because it is important where these are extremely radical, that is an insult to the word radical. these are nonsensical, chaotic, anarchic dynamics that we know are meant to destroy society at its foundation and if you don't take it seriously you can have some impact. is having impact on that campus in particular do you think? >> absolutely. i have seen fellow classmates radicalized by these absurd beliefs. they won't stop at abolishing, they want to abolish our republican institution. these revolutionaries want to learn about revolution how about they look to the constitution and the founding of this country, learning about the revolutionary impact of the constitution. laura: the majority of americans agree with you and got to take this seriously and make sure it
12:39 am
is known this is not going to be put up with because it doesn't make sense and it is dangerous because they are serious. we've seen the damage done throughout this country, thanks for joining me, appreciate it. back to laura. laura: hundreds of colleges and universities across america mandating covid vaccine for students heading to campus this fall. this despite the fact that none of the vaccines have been approved by the fda which begs the question why are schools forcing this? joining me is audrey, university of chicago student and cofounder and editor in chief, the university of chicago which is a phenomenal school but doesn't buy into the pc nonsense so many universities do is requiring proof of vaccination for you to come back in the fall, tell me
12:40 am
why you are against this. >> my thoughts exactly, thank you for having me. it is an honor to be here and i am saddened by the fact that my university is mandating all students take emergency use authorized vaccines in order to return to campus this fall. i honestly believe students and parents should have the liberty to choose whether or not they engage in this medical experiment. i do not want to take the vaccine and to be clear if people are comfortable with the vaccine and wants to be vaccinated that is totally fine but on this issue i am pro-choice and i believe that i should have the right to make an informed decision about myself and the risk with both the vaccine and covid. laura: if you don't show proof of vaccination do you just zoom the classes or you are not allowed on campus?
12:41 am
>> that is what is awful. in just a week and a half, i love the university, i want to be on campus with my friends this fall but i'm being forced to choose. i can either get vaccinated and be on the quad with my friends, go to class in person or i can stay home and go to class remotely via zoom if i choose not to take the vaccine. laura: are you considering a lawsuit against the university for this? >> i have been getting that question a lot of honestly as a 21-year-old students i am not sure what to do. i feel powerless which is why i am thankful to be on air with you tonight because i don't know what to do to fight this but it is disturbing to me because
12:42 am
these covid vaccines have not been traditionally approved, they are emergency use authorized vaccines, we don't know much about them and furthermore students my age are extraordinarily low risk of dying from covid, we are more likely to die from the common flu or pneumonia. laura: the spread on campus is 0.2% or some ridiculously low -- that is surely not a concern and the washington post is reporting in legal filings and letters to employers and universities attorneys from syrian ghosted focused on the expedited process known as emergency use authorization mandating the vaccine clear that way they argue is illegal and unenforceable. this is what some of the legal thinkers are mulling and there may be an avenue here. >> i hope so and just today one of the other campus newspapers
12:43 am
announced the positivity rate for covid at chicago right now is 0. 0 right now which is crazy and i hope the legal expert start speaking out, continue speaking out about this issue because i'm not alone. a lot of my colleagues at the chicago thinker and beyond don't want to get this vaccine. laura: a lot of the kids who have already had covid and that is another reason they don't want to get the vaccine i imagine. >> right right. laura: thank you for speaking out and we will be following this. 0 at chicago. coming up the worst media offenders of the week, the ingraham angle has its eyes on you. jeff ward and mercedes schlapp are here to break it down, you don't want to miss it, stay right there.
12:48 am
12:49 am
editor of the american spectator. with me as mercedes schlapp, you never want former anything but even here, what a great job and senior fellow at the american conservative union making a difference for all of america. let's begin with -- m snbc segments, just watch this. >> delaware senator, gently rubbing his senate colleagues, before going to town on an ice cream cone. the one constant is joe biden really really loves ice cream. >> he really does.
12:50 am
probably needed a cigarette and shower after the report. donald trump liked ice cream, remember the scandal trump gets two scoops of ice cream when everyone else -- donald trump was good and everyone else bad. what is your take on this? >> that is fake news. when we were to the white house you could get as much softserve as you needed. i don't understand what the obsession is with the democrats and ice cream, nancy pelosi and she has a whole refrigerator filled with jenny's ice cream and the journalists are like biden's fan club, the hardest question they ask the president is what flavor ice cream are you eating. it is not only two scoops for biden but two scoops on a waffle cone and that is a celebration.
12:51 am
>> you have an opinion on this. >> mercedes work for donald trump, i worked for president reagan. i am sure we could guarantee the press never would have treated donald trump or ronald reagan like this. i was physically present in the white house when the press corps was screaming, literally screaming at president reagan d matter he answer this, demanding that he answer that. this is pathetic. that said, we know why it is being done, they want to protect their agenda, protect the left-wing agenda and need to protect president biden. >> is like baby talk trying to get somebody to be quiet, patting us on the head. to the next one. the other networks still exist with january 6th. here's what one reporter said. >> i find this moment the 9/11 moment domestically.
12:52 am
there were attackers. unfortunately there are many people in the country who have been stoked to believe those attackers were doing something patriotic and republicans have played into that. >> from something lighthearted to something awful like this. that is adam seen comparison. a remarkable shocking thing to hear someone say, what does that mean for you? september 11th attacks not felt domestically? an astounding correlation. >> this year is going to mark the twentieth anniversary of 9/11 and for people who may not have been around almost 3000 americans were mass murdered that day. this was horrific. this isn't even remotely close to what happened in the capitol
12:53 am
on january 6th. if they want to talk about that there have been attacks on the capitol, five members of congress were shot and almost killed on the floor of the house, puerto rican nationalists when i was working in the united states senate a bomb went off in the capitol. these things have gone, this is not even remotely close to that but compared to 9/11, truly insulting. >> this is what is shocking, these are all things to be taken seriously, the riot should be taken seriously, people are being charged with crimes, several people died, what is your take on this amazing effort to conflate this with the mass murder of thousands? >> these journalists want to rewrite history. we know that 9/11 was an attack on the heart of america and we saw thousands of lives lost, there's a great opinion piece by
12:54 am
deborah talking about the fact that 3000 children never got to meet their parents. we have to put this in perspective. the capitol riots were inexcusable and they should go to jail and that is why you have the department of justice investigating and doing their work, no need for commission. it is about political theater for the democrats and they are going -- trying to blame these republicans. >> we are all passionate here and the op-ed in the wall street journal, great point, thank you. chuck schumer has a rick perry moment. the last bite, we will be right back.
12:59 am
1:00 am
number 2, because it is going to take affect -- i forgot the third reason. i had three reasons i said in my speech. do you remember? what is it? oh yes. it is positive. we are very proud of it. >> it happens to all of us. check out my show, and get tammy bruce exclusively on fox nation. i am the president of independent women's voice. greg gutfeld is next. thing abo. joe biden has been a senator, vice president, and noah president himself. this with a lot of change in hi political career over the years with the one constant is that joe biden really, really loves ice cream. he talks about a letter to all the time. matter what's going on, no matter if he is a hitting president president or senator or what crisis us on his play, just get that man a cohen. he loves ice cream because you never have to worry about brain freeze.
