in the fall of 1961, a new version of china's great wall appears, separating the free west from commonestinated east berlin. to keep people from temptation, the communists seek to block out the sight and sound of freedom. speaking of the situation, khrushchev said, the soviet union has double medic relations with all the countries of eastern europe and maintains vital contacts with them. i must say we know of no symptoms of any tensions in this area. however, the kremlin press conference, he changed his do. west berlin has become a kind of cancerous tumor. evidence not liquidated it spells a danger which could lead to undesirable consequences. it is because of this we decided to perform a surgical operation to liquidate the occupational status of berlin. then khrushchev said, we are not afraid of withdrawing our troops from all countries where they are stationed. britain, the u.s., and france fear this. again, the finger a false accusation. the truth is, following world war ii, the allies left a temporary force of about 800,000 in europe, where the soviets maintained a standing army of 5

circumstances it is a certainly symbol of what china in the past has been and what china in the future can become, a people that could build a wall like this certainly have a great as a result of the beginning that we have made on this journey, that many, many americans, particularly the young americans who like to travel so much will have an opportunity to come here as i have come here today with mrs. nixon and the others in our party. that they will be able to see this wall. that they will have an opportunity as we have had an opportunity to know the chinese people and know them better and i think one of the results of our trip, we hope, may be that the walls that are erected, whether they are physical walls like this or other walls of ideology or philosophy, will not divide peoples in the world, that peoples regardless of their differences and backgrounds and their philosophies will have an opportunity to communicate with each other, to know each other, and to share with other those particular endeavors that will mean peaceful progress in the years ahead. all in all, i would say finally, we've come a long way to be here today, 16,000 miles, and many things th

wall of censorship. but, here's what i think is important here. one of the great leadership things that president trump did early in the pandemic was pull down the flights from china room on january 28th had to fight 20 people, including tony fauci on this decision on behalf of the president. he did it and he saved literally hundreds of thousands of lives, perhaps millions. why do i raise that now? they want us to wear like six masks and take like four different vaccines and like crack down on us here north of the border. but the single greatest threat now to americans right now in terms of getting this virus, particularly the deadly brazilian variant, is the open border that joe biden has. the flow of illegal aliens that are coming across that border is going to be over a million, at least, in 2021. many of those are going to be infected. this brazilian variant is more deadly, more contagious, for two reasons, rachel, one, is that if you look at how these -- this virus works. it's basically got that spike protein of the virus and it punches your ace receptor, and once those lock the virus gets into your cells, right? so what this brazilian variant does is it has
