when the two drivers tried to merge onto a ramp simultaneously. okay, maybe we could just calm down a little bit on the road and take a deep breath. unbelievable, unfortunately that's all the time we have left, please set your dvr so you never missed an episode. but in the meantime, let not your hearts be troubled, because the great laura ingraham is here to take it over. a >> laura: okay, hannity, what was your first job? from the time you are a little, little kid. >> sean: my first job was throwing papers at eight, my first job job was watching -- washing dishes at 12. >> laura: so paper route first, that was my first job at age nine, eight, something like that. >> sean: i had to put it in my sister's name. i lied, i admit it. >> laura: did you ever pick fruit? >> sean: i did at my sister's school, they had an apple worker, we used to do it for fun but not for money. >> laura: how about

blueberries $0.10 a pint? that was big money. we will talk about work and i know you have such an interesting work story because he worked her butt off. >> sean: you want me to list it, i could take the rest of your hour. a >> laura: we only have an hour here. and i need that story from you. all right, i am lauren ingram, this is "the ingraham angle" from washington tonight. you are being lied to you coming at us, about covid from government -- government agencies. medical experts that are trotted out on tv and they look so reasonable and so expert, but tonight i am going to dismantle a web of deceit that they have been spinning for months, and i am going to explain why we need to start really paying attention to this and ignoring those people, but first the war on work, that's the focus of tonight's "angle." >> here is where we stand. jobs are up, and monthly price increases have come down.

the economy growth is upcoming and the fastest in 40 years. and unemployment is coming down. so i would argue are biden economic plan is working. >> laura: working, well, is it working when people choose not to work? when your policies are increasingly encouraging americans to stay home? when the government keeps sending checks, we called them biden bucks to people to remain out of the workforce, okay, it turns out a lot of people just don't work. it's shocking. >> we've been looking for the last hard, hard for the last couple of weeks, cannot even get people to come into interviews when they do apply. >> it's very, very frustrating. some of the front of the house, back of the house, across the board we can't find people to work. >> we have plants that aren't able to run at full capacity because they simply can't find enough people to work in them. >> i can't find enough staff to keep the thermos going, now i'm going to say, well, you have to

be vaccinated? >> laura: you can't get anyone to show up to work. now biden remember decided to continue covid unemployment benefits when all we really needed was to fling open the doors of our economy. he is destroying the work ethic across the country. 3.4 million americans are still long term unemployed. now you did not see those kinds of numbers when trump was president. no longer are the days of theodore roosevelt when he said nothing in this world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, and difficulty, or to be a little bit more contemporary, this is one of the most successful actors in the world. >> don't be afraid to fail big to dream big, but remember dreams without goals are just dreams. in order to achieve your goals, you must apply discipline, which you have already done, and

consistency every day. hard work works. working really hard is what successful people do. >> laura: working really hard is what successful people do. it's a simple message, and it's getting lost today. because biden and the democrats too often seek to punish and demonize success. meanwhile they flit off to the mansions, the martha vineyards party circuits, and let's not forget radio city on the big opening night. my friends, our recession ended in april 2020. it's the shortest on record after trump agreed to the original federal shutdown during covid. but now he still pump a huge amount of money into the economy. we kept the blue states flush with cash despite the fact that for all those months, they kept their self sabotaging policies. how depressing and aggravating

is it to you, it certainly is to me, to see an able-bodied young man or woman sitting at home playing fortnight or talking to friends on social media all day when they could be out feeling really good about themselves because they are working? >> it was like a snow day from life. and i felt safer. >> when it first started, the pandemic, it was very comfortable for me. i began to feel very relaxed. >> i am honestly incredibly nervous to return to any kind of normalcy. >> the pressure to perform and project and engage in the world is intensified. >> i don't want to see us return to normal. i want to see us return to better. >> laura: okay, is this really america? the government deserves almost all the blame here. and it's now squarely on the

democrats. they absolutely love keeping americans petrified. all those people seem scared. glued to the tv for the latest cdc viral update. >> we are entering a period arguably the most dangerous time for children during the entire pandemic. >> i don't see the intervention, any mitigating interventions being put in place trying to slow this down. this will be a disaster. >> what is the strategy behind killing children in your own state and letting children die of covid? >> laura: that's where they get you. their hollow concerns for the kids. now 20 states are getting rid of the extended unemployment benefits, they want to use scared to your kids back to school, so then you are forced to stay home and you can be isolated for the west -- rest of the world. it turned on the too. it is nirvana for them when millions of workers are at home and their athletes way or on

occasional zoom calls doing self-care. that's their ideal. so just when companies call workers back, the cdc's fearmongering threatens to send them home again. it's a vicious cycle and killing the very work ethic we need now more than ever. so when you are feeling weak and may be helpless, they want you to believe that only government can serve your problems. not hard work, not personal initiative, not your family and getting family help, to democrats i've used this pandemic to target the very heart and soul of america with lockdowns and now mandates, they waged a war on the country. here are the sad set of facts, they don't want you to be a part of a strong family or a strong church or to be a part of a strong community or to even really trust your neighbors, they would prefer that you not really own anything. rent if you must. you won't have to pay it anyway

now that biden illegally extended the eviction moratorium. the government is your family, your religion, and the only community that really matters. and your role is to obey. notice they are never really willing to spread hope or optimism. what happened to all of that? biden, pelosi, schumer, they are in charge of everything and they use the power to spread not hope and wonderment about the country, but i never ending message of gloom and doom. >> we have wildfires in the west, we have approachin >> as bad as covid was this year, and it was horrible, five or ten years from now every year the climate change will make things worse and worse and worse. >> laura: it's fun. isn't it fun being a democrat?

if you really want to annoy the left, if you really want to defeat them, work hard. take responsibility. to be a good parent or a good child or a good friend. fly the american flag every day. that will really bug them. keep living your life with a sense of joy, not dread. share your love of america with your kids or any young people you spend time with. lord knows they hear enough on social media and in school about how awful everything is. it's toxic, and it is ultimately disempowering. free people in free societies will always have the advantage over broken down as we learn during the cold war. west germany did better than east germany, south korea did better than north korea, and free america will do better than a lockdown america people choose loss over hard work. and they give into fear over hope, millions of people putting in a hard day's work made america a global powerhouse, and it made us home to stunning

innovations. now it's all at risk by a movement that seeks to discourage personal independence and encourage collectivism. when you think about it, the war on work is ultimately a war on america itself. it is in the struggle and through hard work that americans have always shown there their true colors, and time to fly thm again boldly and unapologetically and this is "the angle," joining me now john tapper, host of the hit show "bar rescue" and creator of the new tapper's tavern franchise, the first just opened in alpharetta, georgia. i know that you say that there is a larger problem if people keep taking the biden box to stay at home and not go to work, explain that. >> you know, laura, what i find interesting is my dog got sick last week and i wanted to go to the veterinarian, they pushed me back a week because they did not have employees.

to the walmart in my neighborhood is installing all self-service checkout counter spread i have a friend in the distribution business, he can't get his drivers back. this isn't specific to any industry, laura, it is across all industries. it's across different income levels as well. and complete agreement with you from your angle tonight, because there is a change in attitude. there are so many jobs available now, this is an opportunity for people to get promoted, to stand out, to really carve a future for themselves in a career. opportunity is enormous today, but nobody is seizing it. and it is a massive change in attitude, laura. they are trying to balance, and this is their words, not mine. they are trying to balance "quality of life and work." but to us, laura, we worked hard to earn that quality of life. i think that that is a lot of the shift is that moving the quality of life today before they have earned it, rather than

after they have earned it. it is a powerful shift, and if i can just speak economics for a second, and i'm not an economic professor, if you get $800 a week of unemployment benefits and you also work with a department getting $800 a week unemployment, 600 a week, $83,000 a year for that household and unemployment benefits. the immediate income in america is only 63,000. we are incentivizing people to stay home. what if we gave that additional unemployment benefits to employers to incentivize people to go to work? >> laura: what if we just cut off the unemployment, hunger is a pretty powerful thing. i don't mean physical hunger, because people who are in need need help, but people who can work but refused to work, but the government is literally putting and bills in many ways on people's shoulders through the mandate, regulations, and now through free money which we -- the paper eventually has to be paid.

john, i want to ask you about this idea of work-life balance. because nobody wants to miss their kids growing up, and you stay in the office your whole life and you never see your family. so that's really important. however, have we taken that a step too far when you think of, well, a lot of the millennials talking about i need time for "self-care," i don't know why i'm harping on that tonight, but the whole self-care movement is a little -- my mother is not with us, but she worked from the time she was 12 during the depression and if she heard the self-care thing, i think her head would explode. >> you know, i think that's right. i have friends in the military who trains military dogs, and the only feed a military dog at night, because a hungry dog is an obedient dog. if we are not causing people to be hungry to work, then we are providing them with all the meals they need sitting at home. i'm completely with you, laura, these benefits make no sense to us. and on top of the impact of not

getting employees and not being able to run our businesses, and my industry we have meat prices up 10%, chicken prices up. >> laura: inflation is going to kill business. i mean, that's the next shoe to drop, and the democrats know it. jon, really quickly, the best message and advice you can give a young person graduating from college today who may be isn't really sure what he or she wants to do. is it show everybody you are going to work harder than the next guy, right? is it something like that? >> yeah, the opportunities are unbelievable, laura. i will hire people that i normally would not hire for a position and give them a chance. this is an incredible time for people graduating universities, high school to really dive into the workplace and be noticed. it's very sad that they are not doing it. >> laura: hard work, jon, thank you so much. it's not just biden's economy at the risk of crumbling, our sovereignty as well. 200,672 illegals were

encountered -- i love that word "encountered" like it's a romance at the southern border in july, 13% increase over june and a new 20-year high. congrats, joe. here to react to that, ohio governor jim jordan. i said this earlier on twitter, i think that this frankly is an impeachable offense. our country is being overrun and not enough republicans are making hay of this and the republicans want it to happen, your reaction? >> no, it is intentional. harming our country by not following the law and enforcing the border. hillary clinton said five years ago when she wanted a borderless hemisphere, we now have it under the biden administration. and just to say how bad it was, march was the highest record for illegal crossing until april, and then april was the highest month until may. and they may was the highest until june coming we just got the numbers come in june was the highest month until july.

that's what you call a bad trend. in no conclusion but this is intentional. you are right, the biden administration is responsible for the chaotic situation on our southern border and all that comes along with that when you have just this influx of people with covid and all other concerns. >> laura: i can't believe that we had governors desantis on the show last week and i asked him, are you given any warning when a plane load or a busload or a caravan of migrants are dropped off in your state? or are you told? he said we have no idea. we have to pick up information -- no one is being told! there has to be a lawsuit somewhere! >> no mayor, no one has any idea. >> laura: where are they going? >> intentionally, all over the nation. they are going to ohio and all over the state. and we have no say. on the idea that the commander in chief, the present on the end of the united states is actually doing this on purpose makes no

sense. that's why the american people are so fed up with this administration, which by the way has had the worst start to any administration certainly in my lifetime. we have never seen, whether it is inflation, the border, international situations, you name it, the crime in our big cities, we have never had an administration with this rough of a start, so i think it's why in 16, 17 months we are going to win back the house. >> laura: there is no choice, have to win back back the house. congressman, you are the ranking member on house judiciary and i want to get to your thoughts on another development tonight, a lot of people are upset that amy coney barrett, supreme court justice ruled against indiana students on the vaccine requirements to be back on campus. it was not a ruling on the merit, and i think that this could be more complicated than people think at first blush. because again, it is not a ruling on the merits of the case. the facts of the case might not have been the greatest for

determining the constitutionality of these types of mandates. what is your initial impression? >> no, that may in fact be the case and the legal arguments for why they did not take the case itself, but i cannot imagine a world where the founders would've envisioned that this kind of mandate on the american people and citizens is okay. i just can't see it. and frankly, laura, when you look at the broader context, and look, you are a leader on this. i remember being on your show a year ago in april and you said, where is this all going to go with the mask mandate, the shutdown, the vaccine passports? we now see where they want to take it. so in the context i would preferred that the court take the case up and rule in the right way in favor of the students. unfortunately they didn't. i'm sure there's a legal justification. so big picture sense i'm troubled by this because i am trouble where dr. fauci, i mean, for goodness sake. the school board is out there. quit listening to fauci, start listening to parents. this guy has been all over the

board. he contradicted himself time and time again, so i would prefer they take the case, but they didn't. >> laura: there is probably another set of facts that will end up at the court and another challenge that will end up onto the cold court consideration. congressman, good to see you. thank you. why should we ever, frankly, trust the cdc again? in moments my mini angle will dismantle the recent lies and expose the media that is essentially parrotot ♪ ♪

and there you have it- woah. wireless on the most reliable network nationwide. wow. -big deal! ...we get unlimited for just 30 bucks. sweet, i get that too and mine has 5g included. that's cool, but ours save us serious clam-aroonies. relax people, my wireless is crushing it. that's because you all have xfinity mobile with your internet. it's wireless so good, it keeps one upping itself.

>> are medical and scientific experts at the cdc will be out there every day to answer questions and get the facts out. >> when they make a formal recommendation, it has to be based on data. >> when i became cdc director, i promised i would lead with science. to rebuild trust in our public health institutions and to keep people safe. >> laura: [applause] nice job, rachelle, we can take a point in the pandemic where americans just can't believe both the government agencies have been giving us information or the media responsible for disseminating it. occasionally asking tough questions. let me explain, let's take the cdc first. inside the slideshow leaked to

"the washington post," the agency made the stunning claim about the delta variant, it was as transmissible as the chicken pox. wow, the claim was false. it turned out that the chicken pox is three times as transmissible as covid. so what the heck the cdc, they get those information's from? it means that they stole it from a graphic in "the new york times." but we are not done. this past sunday they recorded 28,000, 317 new cases of florida in florida. that was until the florida department of health noticed that was nearly double the actual number and their record which was close to 15,000. so the cdc agreed to meet the florida department of health in the middle. ember's eyes -- revise their number 219,000 after rolling several days into one.

they agreed to meet in the middle? this is not a negotiation could we deserve actual data, and what about the cdc's guidance on the vaccine? first the guidance was that it prevents all symptomatic infections and spread by up to 95%. >> they demonstrated 97% vaccine effectiveness, and 60% effectiveness against symptomatic infections, in the rare event of getting infected after a vaccine, it is more likely to have a lower viral load, be shorter in duration, and likely less risky a transition to others. >> laura: well, that became, it reduces severity of symptoms and spread which is that it does not reduce the spread, so now you have to wear a mask. and now, well, we are discussing boosters. of course, and never ends. if so the cdc can no longer

claim that the spread is eliminated by the vaccine or that you can lose the mask for the vaccine, how in the hell can they justify mandating it? and finally, we have long told you that the media aren't interested or invested at all and the truth about a virus, but rather in inducing this perpetual panic by cherry picking it off and using incorrect data and guidance. the latest example is quite jarring. you have been hearing this for weeks. >> more children are now hospitalized in texas than ever before, yet republican governor greg abbott filed a petition yesterday to keep school officials in dallas from exercising their freedom to institute new mask requirements. >> laura: well that too was based on faulty data with some corrections. in the texas tribune, another story overstated the number of children who have been hospitalized in texas recently with covid. story said over 5,800 children had been vaccinated --

hospitalized in august, according to the cdc that number correctly referred to children hospitalized with covid since the pandemic began. in actuality, 783 children were admitted to texas hospitals with covid between july 1st-august 9th of this year. so we did the math appeared to the original claim 828 hospitalizations a day where it was really 19 a day. not bad, they were only off by a factor of 43. if we are being forced to take a vaccine and to mask up and to enter a business or restaurant, and if kids are being told to mask in school where they won't have any school experience at all, and if our lives continue to be upside down, the least we should demand is the truth. something that has been missing for most of the pandemic. join me now is harvard medical

school professor extraordinaire martin cole dorff. professor, what is going on here? this can't just be a series of random mistakes? these are not dumb people i would imagine. >> no, it is stunning, i think. dr. lansky is a very popular doctor, but the approach to public health has been rather surprising, i would say. for example, we all know that you have good immunity after having recovered from covid disease. and it leads us to the community and the immunity of the vaccine, and there is more evidence from long-lasting immunity from having covid than the vaccine. but the vaccine mandates only acknowledge immunity from

vaccine, but not having covid. and that's very strange. i know that dr. polansky had to express doubts about immunity from natural disease, so to do that, most people understand that you do get immunity from having had the disease. >> laura: there was another study out today dr. cole dorf that demonstrated that natural immunity from exposure is now lasting as long as 12 months with continuing t cell manner murray response. and they will keep studying it as the pandemic goes on, so i would imagine, but it is up to 12 months which seems to be at the vaccine as far as we can say. >> for sure, and it was an infomercial that showed immunity from covid disease is seven

times worse than from the natural disease. >> laura: i want to ask you about covid and pregnancy, dr. fauci made a comment about pregnant women taking the covid vaccine. watch. speak the right choice is to get vaccinated without a doubt. we have experience with tens of thousands of pregnant women right now, and there is no safety signal of any concern. and right now the recommendation is that they should get vaccinated. >> laura: okay, i'm not a doctor, but that makes no sense to me, dr. kulldorff. >> there is not been any indication that there is a problem, but the pregnancy lasts for nine months, and we have had the vaccine for less than that. if we are concerned about birth defects or other things, that we don't have that data yet. we will have to wait longer for at least half a year or longer before actually knowing truly what is safe. >> laura: okay, but this is

dr. anthony fauci, professor kulldorff. the guy who trump put as the face of the pandemic. known as global expert, and he is saying that the strong signal is that women who are pregnant should get the vaccine, there are no safety indications, but isn't he aware that pregnancy last nine months? you see why people are not trusting these people. they are saying things that are not already proven. >> public health is based on trust. public health for the public, the officials, the public health officials have to trust the public and be honest about these things, otherwise it's not going to work. >> laura: and things we do know about natural immunity, they claim doesn't really exist or isn't great, and the stuff we don't know, they claim is true. doctor, thank you. it's great to see you as always. and after seeing his country's rights being eradicated by a power-hungry government, an

australian politician delivered a powerful anti-lockdown speech to parliament. that speech got him censored and shunned. well, he's here tonight with a warning for america.

covid-19 has changed how we stomp the yard and feel the beat. now it's time to take the first step that lets us get back to strolling instead of scrolling. before we can safely come together, we need the facts. as covid-19 vaccines become available, you may have questions. student 1: is it safe?

student 2: should i get it? student 3: is it free? it's okay to have questions. now get the facts about covid-19 vaccines at getvaccineanswers.org so you can make an informed decision for yourself and for your fam.

♪ ♪ >> laura: tensions are running high in chicago after mayor lori lightfoot's handling of the shooting that left one police officer murdered and another fighting for his life. but it's another leader under the spotlight tonight. cook county state attorney kim fox. remember her abysmal performance in the who bird intendant david brown says the reason the crime rate is rising and why many people consider chicago a war zone is because of the revolving door at the courthouse, the refusal to

prosecute criminals. now they have put out a number that tend to back up the superintendent theory, showing that kim fox is dropping felony cases including murder, rape and aggravated battery at a rate higher than her predecessor. for example, during fox's first three years as cook county prosecutor, dropping charges on more than 25,000 suspects. during the first three years of cook county state attorney anita alvarez, she dismissed more than 18,000 cases. kim fox claims her office is focused on dropping cases against "low-level nonviolent offenders," but the tribune's numbers don't bear that out, and here's why paired when it comes to those arrested for homicide, kim fox has dropped 8.1% of cases compared to her predecessor dropping 5.3%. for those accused of aggravated battery with a firearm, fox has dismissed 6.1% of cases compared to 4.1 percent for the previous administration. then there is sex crimes where

she dropped 9.5% of cases compared to 6.5 for anita alvarez. and during a time when many police officers don't feel like their superiors have their backs, i found it interesting that for those accused of aggravated battery of a police officer, kim fox has dropped 8.s compared to only 3.9 percent for her predecessor. and keep in mind through all of this so far this year, shootings in chicago up 48 percent from the same time last year. murders up 55%, and we have four and a half months to go, laura. >> laura: trace, disturbing, thank you. joining me now is anthony napolitano, former police officer, alderman, this is beyond disturbing. murders up 58 percent in chicago since 2019, and now fox is

accused of putting more accused criminals back on the streets. these numbers are just staggering. >> yeah, they are staggering. we've been pointing them out for the last five years and no one has really been listening. the worst thing about the state attorney and she is a public defender not a state attorney. what she does that she takes the felony offenders who are legally carrying guns and kicks them down to misdemeanors and put some back on the street who the next day become a shooter offender. and she does it under the guise and her statement was police are locking up the wrong offenders because she considers just carrying a gun a misdemeanor and she does not realize what she is doing. she is creating the revolving door effect and the one that is putting the shooter back on the street to carry out what they were doing on the original time they were out there. it's such a bad way, this is such a bad way to go about prosecuting crime. i just don't know what she is doing anymore. she has a derelict and a duty as a state's attorney. >> laura: she has taken issue with the idea, anthony, that she

is somehow dropping cases. watch. >> it's not dropping, it's focusing our attention on violence. we don't of the capacity to do all things, so the prioritization is on violent crime for a low-level, nonviolent offenses that look out alternatives to prosecution community-based solutions to deal with that. so we can have an all-hands-on-deck approach to gun violence. >> laura: anthony, has this been an all-hands-on-deck? and what are the communities solutions? how is that working out? >> there has been zero effect in the communities. i've been saying for a while we don't need police accountability, we need citizen accountability. and it's no hands on deck. all she is doing its people telling people to raise their hands, uncovering them and putting them back on a street in an alarming rate. follow the trends of the prosecution rate. she will charge somebody with a felony and then weeks later she will drop it down to a misdemeanor without telling the victims what she is doing and kicks the use of hunters back on the street. she is running great police pinches and is hurting our city.

>> laura: meanwhile lori lightfoot, the mayor is somehow trying to make herself out to be a victim in all of this. and she spoke out, watch. >> people feel like it is their right to spew hatred at everyone that they don't agree with. people have to be better human beings. and it does not matter if they are police. it does not matter if they are an elected official or a reporter. we need to be better humans to each other. >> laura: people actually vote for this? this is like a fortune cookie. [laughs] you notice the police first though, you have to be a better human being, police. >> you know what, and another thing we have been pointing out for years now is there is a people problem in the city of chicago. and the problem is is that there is a lot of elected officials who are working their candidacy off of these problems, not trying to fix them, but trying

to help what they say, help the community. they are doing nothing to help the community. they are and placing -- they are vilifying the police department making them seem like they are the enemy, and they are trying to make it look like what they are doing the city council is strengthening the community. and it is the absolute opposite effect. >> laura: it's time for the voters to affect? don't you think, napolitano. a politician delivering and antilock down sentiment to parliament. that speech got him censored and basically shunned. he joins us live from australia

do you struggle to fall asleep and stay asleep? qunol sleep formula combines 5 key nutrients that can help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up refreshed. the brand i trust is qunol.

>> laura: seven weeks of lockdown in australia and still kicking the vice grip on the population. what is the caseload? it must be terrible. in new south wales so there were a reported 345 new cases today. i was up a whopping one from 334 a day earlier. the new population, 8.2 million, meaning a case to population ratio of .004%. they locked down that. the reaction is even more insane paired the capital city has a population of about 400,000. they have just entered a snap lockdown, they have names over

one case, a single case. all of this has led to one member of parliament, george christiansen of queensland to speak out. >> it's time that we stop spreading the fear and some facts. masks do not work, fact, it has been proven that masts make no significant difference in stopping the spread of covid-19. lockdowns don't work. fact, lockdowns don't destroy the virus, but they do destroy people's livelihoods in people's lives. studies have shown they can even increase mortality rates. the vaccine passports are a form of discrimination. >> laura: video of that speech was removed from facebook after the tech behemoth claimed it contained harmful information in a breach of its covid misinformation policy. here now is the man you just saw, george christiansen who will not be censored on "the ingraham angle," member of the australian parliament. i've been meaning to ask you for some time, what has happened to you all as he is? tough because these, what is

going on there? >> first, the day from down under, laura, and it's could to be on your show with all of your fantastic fox news viewers. so yes, we are suffering from what is pandemic policy and insanity in this country, and what you just said highlights it. in the city of canberra, which i am currently in, one single case in the entire 400,000 plus population moved into lockdown, basically stay in place orders, businesses shut down that are being nonessential, it is very interesting, we have governments deciding who has essential roles, but this is happening acs every inch of this country, sydney, melbourne, brisbane, we are locking down because someone sneezes, quite frankly,d

worse than that we have state borders that are shutting as well. i fear that there is too much for your in the community about this virus which we know has a very, very low infection fatality rate actually. that is what is causing this collective new policy insanity in australia, and i will say, do not do what we are doing. the citizens have absolute freedoms. >> laura: george, what is the reaction of the average working person in australia to these draconian lockdowns that are being enforced with police authority? >> not just police authority, but broadening the army to civilians as well, which is an issue in itself. there are more troops coming to actually do that placing. but in sydney, melbourne, brisbane, united, there is a lot of what we call trade staples that are very, very angry about

the fact that they cannot get to work. and if they don't get to work, most of them don't get paid. and there are compensation measures that are out there, but they don't fully make up for what people might lose, and for what businesses might lose. it's everything. >> laura: the military -- but george, military in the streets of australia against their own people? >> that's right. i should not have glossed over it. it's crazy. there is now something like 500 troops in sydney at the moment. people, defense-first personnel on the street. patrolling civilians to make sure that they are complying with coronavirus restrictions, and apparently the new style of government which covers the city of sydney called for an extra 200 troops -- >> laura: people better wake up. people better wake up. i mean, this is -- i heard some of them booing you when you are

delivering your remarks. some of them were booing you will, but there are a lot of people here that watch that that were cheering you. they were cheering you. because it takes guts to say that. >> a lot of people in everyday life were cheering me, but laura, as i said, collective policy insanity here. i'm persona non grata in camber for saying that. i was banned by the government and opposition for saying that. >> laura: your prime minister's ratings and approval numbers are at an 18 month low, so mr. morrison, you are in some big trouble of your own. george, your message for the american people in 15 seconds before we have to let you go? >> stand up for freedom. it needs to be fought at every inch of the way in this fight against pandemic restrictions. >> laura: freedom matters. >> laura: freedom matters.
