RFK Jr on Jordan Peterson
0:00
I I don't think she has the ability to talk to foreign
leaders um I haven't seen any evidence
0:06
of that and I think that she is susceptible to manipulation
because she
0:12
doesn't have firm ideas about her own I fear that she'll be
manipulated by them and that those entities actually want a
0:19
nuclear war this time in history if we get a president like
that um it will uh
0:25
for the next four years it may be too late for our country
to ever recover
Intro
0:33
[Music]
0:42
hello everybody so today I had the privilege of round two
with Robert F
0:48
Kennedy Jr the first time we had a discussion which I
enjoyed a lot and thought was very worthwhile the powers
0:54
that be at YouTube decided that it was okay for them to
eradicate it which was not something that I was happy with and
1:01
still remain unhappy about we'll see if the same thing
happens this time so we
1:06
covered a lot has changed since that first interview um most
markedly that
1:12
RFK is now allied with Donald Trump and that's quite the
strange turn of Affairs
1:18
we have a Cod of disaffected Democrats running on the
Republican side against
1:23
camela Harris and what did we talk about well we talked a
lot about why RFK was
1:28
has become disenchanted with the Democrats and uh I had
pushed him on that issue in our
1:33
first discussion asking him for example when the left goes
too far we finally
1:39
have the answer to that question that's in this podcast
because RFK outlined
1:45
five different ways the left has gone too far so
highlighting um highlighting
1:51
what highlighting their lack of care for free speech
highlighting the fact that they're now the party of War
1:57
highlighting the fact that they're no longer the party the
working class well there's three ways that the left has gone too far and that
just what is
2:04
that's the tip of the iceberg we talked a fair bit about
well the policy issues
2:10
that Kennedy has been discussing with Trump concentrating
particularly on the Health
2:16
crisis on free speech and on International Peace and those
do strike me as three major issues that we need to
2:23
contend with um we talked about the development of Trump's
new team which is
2:28
a remarkable occurrence the fact that he has musk the fact
that he has Ramis Swami telsey gabard and of course gabard
2:35
and of course Kennedy himself that changes the political
landscape dramatically something the Trump team
2:40
hasn't yet capitalized on we talked a little bit about what
the union might
2:46
look like under a trump Administration with all these
remarkable people in it so join us for all of that YouTube
2:53
censors uh allowing so I'm very curious about the
Forming an alliance with Donald Trump, what the
Democratic Party used to represent
3:00
alliance that you formed with Trump I'm curious about
whether you ever imagined that such a thing was a likelihood and
3:07
then I'm curious about why you decided it was a good idea uh
yeah I I never imagined such
3:14
thing was likelihood in fact I was reading a statement that
I had forgotten I made
3:20
but I I made it repeatedly um uh in the in the 18 month
during the 18 months
3:27
when I was run after my after declaring that I was going to
run when people often times would ask me
3:34
why don't you run with Trump and I would say uh and then on
several occasions I
3:40
was approached by the Trump campaign about running as his
3:45
VP and um my answer to that was always that uh that would
result in a divorce
3:52
with my wife if I even if I had the inclination to do that
because it's something that just constitutionally she
4:00
uh at that point could not have handled and would have I
think impacted
4:06
her job and would have uh and and uh would and her
friendships her
4:12
relationships her family Etc but a lot you know we both
learned a lot during the election we saw I saw
4:21
this metamorphosis of the democratic party um the party that
I was born in or
4:26
raised in my my family has been involved in the Democratic
party since my all of
4:33
my great-grandparents came over on the uh in 1848 uh uh
during the Potato
4:40
Famine and landed in Boston and it was the Democratic party
that they came in
4:47
came over penniless and friendless and it was the Democratic
party that provided for them
4:53
that made sure that they got food that they got jobs um that
protected them against the uh the
5:01
reigning uh hierarchy of power in Boston at that time which
was you know run uh
5:07
by uh by uh what they call the Brahman class which was very
hostile to uh Irish
5:15
Catholics in particular and my my great-grandfather was the
first uh Irish
5:22
Catholic maross and the first let me put it this way Irish
Catholic ghetto mayor there was one mayor before him that was
5:28
Irish Catholic but he was chosen by the brahin and he was
the first one who was
5:33
you know part of the the rebellion of the Irish um and the
ultimate takeover
5:39
of Boston and many of our other urban areas by Irish
Catholic politicians my grandfather John
5:46
Fitzgerald who was called honey Fitz because he had a
beautiful singing voice that sounded like
5:51
honey and his contemporary Patrick Joseph Kennedy uh
5:57
was a state legislature political boss in Boston their
children married my uh
6:03
Rose Fitzgerald married my grandfather Joseph Kennedy he was
the
6:09
treasur from Franklin Roosevelt's campaign he was the only
Wall Street figure who supported Roosevelt and then
6:16
he became the first commissioner of the SEC he had political
Ambitions of his
6:21
own but he he ruined those um Ambitions
6:26
by his anti-war position both in world one and then World
War II he served as the uh as the US
6:35
ambassador to the court of St James under Roosevelt to to
Great Britain um and then his uh his children
6:44
his son Joe who was killed during the war gave a speech you
know was would
6:49
have run for would have run and my my grandfather Ambitions
for him to be the first Irish Catholic President he spoke
6:56
he get a gave a keynote address at the democratic convention
in 1940 my my
7:02
uncle John Kennedy became the first Irish Catholic President
of the United
7:07
States um my father served as attorney general and then the
United States
7:12
Senate and then I died I was assassinated in his own run for
7:17
president my uncle Ted Kennedy was the second longest
serving member of the United States Senate and so you know my
7:25
family this the the DNA of the democratic party was baked
into
7:30
my own character my identity I grew up in the party I began
campaigning when I
7:36
was uh six years old on my my uncle's campaign I attended
the convention in
7:43
Los Angeles that year and I've attended almost every
Democratic Convention since
7:48
then worked in probably a 100 campaigns and um and I was a
stalwart in
7:54
the Democratic party but the Democratic party that I grew up
with changed dramatically has changed the last year
8:01
the Democratic party I grew up in was the party of peace my
my uncle John
8:08
Kennedy he was asked by his best friend one of his two best
friends Ben
8:14
Bradley who was then the editor of Washington Post what do
you want on your gravestone and without skipping the beat
8:20
my uncle said he kept the piece he said the primary job of a
president of the United States was to keep the country
8:26
out of War he said he didn't want uh children in Africa and
Latin America
8:33
when they when they heard about the United States to think
about a man in a military uniform with a gun he wanted
8:39
them to think of a Peace Corp volunteer he wanted them to
think of the Kennedy milk program which provided nutrition to
8:46
millions of malnourished kids around the world he wanted
them to think of usaid of Alliance for progress and these other
8:53
programs that my uncle created projected economic power
rather than military power
8:58
abroad my uncle was under tremendous pressure to go to war
in La which he
9:04
resisted in 1961 uh to go to war in Germany uh
9:09
during the Checkpoint Charlie crisis in ' 62 to go to war
against Cuba in 61
9:15
during the Bay of Pigs and then again in ' 63 during the
Cuban Missile Crisis and
9:21
then to go to Vietnam vir all of his advisers were telling
him he had to send 250,000
9:29
troops of Vietnam or the government was collapsed and he
said it's their government we cannot fight their War for
9:35
them he ultimately under great pressure s 16,000 military
9:40
advisers and then who were not under his Rules of Engagement
allowed to participate in combat some of them did
9:48
in October of of um of 1963 he learned
9:54
that Green Beret had been killed in Vietnam and he turned to
his Aid wal
9:59
rosow and he said I want the casualties a list of complete
list of casualties of
10:04
us casualties rosow came back to home an hour later with and
there was 75 76
10:11
Americans that died at that point my uncle said it's too
many and that afternoon this October
10:17
22nd 1963 he signed National Security order 263 ordering all
military personnel US
10:25
military personnel out of Vietnam by 1965 with the first
thousand coming home
10:32
in uh by December so that would have been six weeks later
and then he was killed 30 days to
10:41
the date after he signed that order and a week after that
President Johnson his
10:46
successor remanded National Security order 263 Johnson then
sent 200 and 65,000
10:55
Americans to Vietnam it became our war my father ran against
that war in 1968
11:02
and he also was killed in that process and then Nixon took
over and
11:08
sent 560,000 Americans to Vietnam we killed a million of
them maybe two
11:14
million they killed 56,000 of our uh our
11:20
children including my cousin George skel who died in the
tent offensive and and America then went down
11:28
a different path so the you know becoming uh a feature of
the military industrial
11:35
complex which eyes now had warned against three days before
my uncle on my
11:40
birthday in 1961 three days before my uncle took the office
eyes and hour made that warning
11:46
and my uncle spent three or thousand days of his presidency
keeping us out of
11:52
war and keeping the military industrial complex at Brad Bay
this was one of the defining
11:58
features of Democratic party we were the party that was
against War the Republicans were the proar party we were
12:05
the party that was for civil rights including constitutional
rights and particularly freedom of
12:10
speech which is the the the back stop for all the other
rights the United
12:16
States Constitution a country that has the capacity to
censor its critics and has
12:25
the license for every kind of atrocity my father understood
that my understood that that was one of the that was a
12:32
Bedrock Assumption of the democratic party that Free Speech
was if any any
12:38
constrictions on Free Speech was the first step down the
slippery slope of totalitarianism um so is it fair to say
The Democrats have become the party of war, picking a
fight with Russia
12:47
then that you found the Democrats at the present time you've
alluded to peace and
12:52
under Trump now the party of War now that you know they're
they're about to get us into a a war with
13:11
so we could start by talking about [Music]
13:18
depression depressed people are sad and frustrated and
disappointed they tend to
13:25
feel all negative emotions simultaneously in a manner that's
13:31
paralyzing depression is fundamentally a biochemical
disorder one of the things I tried to determine as a good behaviorist
13:38
was whether the person who was suffering was suffering
because they were ill in
13:44
the strictly physiological sense or whether they were
suffering from the
13:51
cumulative micro and macro catastrophes of
13:57
Life the prob ility that tossing an anti-depressant into the
mix is all of a sudden going to fix your life that are
14:04
absolutely catastrophically out of order is zero the more
unstable your life is
14:09
the less serotonin your brain produces and that makes you
hyp sensitive to negative emotion and suppresses positive
14:19
emotion you take the problem I'm suffering and then you
think well why are you suffering it's exposure therapy
14:26
and then you can practice encountering the obstacle that are
stopping you and it'll make you braver and it'll help you
14:32
deal with your problems voluntary confrontation with the
forces of darkness and chaos is the fundamental
14:38
story of [Music] Life Putin has said this week yeah that
14:45
if we send missiles into into Russia that he will consider
himself to
14:50
be a war with NATO and the United States of America and you
know and he's got more weapons than he's got this the
14:58
biggest nuclear power in the world he 1,200 more nuclear
warheads than we do and they're better than ours and his
15:05
electronic warfare system is a generation ahead of ours as
they've shown in Ukraine they can shoot down
15:11
almost anything that we send against them and and camela
Harris during the
Kamala Harris is proud to be endorsed by Dick Cheney
15:17
convention made this extraordinarily belligerent speech that
appears to have been written by the
15:23
neocons and um and then before she went on
15:29
a CIA director spoke immediately before and they had
militaries people
15:35
speaking at that this was inconceivable you know when I was
growing up and kamla
15:40
Harris in recent days has touted her endorsement by dick
jany Nick Cheney was
15:46
like Darth Vader if you were a democrat in 2004 practically
uh uh the the uh the
15:54
qualification for you being a Democrat is to consider dick
cheny a war criminal
15:59
ni Cheney and John Bolton who she also touted her
endorsement by and 225 other
16:06
neocons who who came out and supported her that day dick
chany and Dick and
16:11
John Bolton were the people who gave us the Patriot Act
they're the ones who launched the surveillance State the
16:17
censorship State this the legalized spying by the CIA and
propaganda by the
16:23
CIA against the American people never happened before it's
in their CH if they can't do that
16:29
um and Dick Cheney and then they gave us the Iraq War which
was the greatest uh
The Iraq War brought a surge of totalitarianism to Europe
16:35
cataclysm of foreign policy cataclysm in American history we
destroyed Iraq which was our Bull workk against Iranian
16:43
expansion the October 7th Invasion were a direct result of
our destruction of
16:49
Saddam Hussein Iraq is now no longer a Bull workk against
Iran it is now a proxy of
16:55
Iran thanks to our war which is exactly the foreign policy
outome that
17:00
we've been struggling to avoid for 30 years we killed more
Iraqis than Sodom
17:06
Hussein by far we turned Iraq into a Waring cauldron of of
Sunni and Shia
17:12
desas we created Isis we sent with that Iraq and the
spillover war in
17:19
Syria we sent between two and four million immigrants into
Europe and
17:26
destabilize every nation in Europe for a generation
emergence of totalitarianism in Europe that right now you know the
17:33
abolition of free speech in Europe is a direct result of the
Iraq war brexit is a direct result of the Iraq
17:40
War was a cataclysm if you ask this Dick Cheney Dick Cheney
who gave us torture for the
17:46
first time in American history we had this tradition in this
country Against torture George Washington even when the
17:54
British were were torturing Americans and murdering them on
on Prison ships in
17:59
Manhattan you know off Manhattan Island Washington was asked
about
18:05
torturing a a a British prisoner who had critical
information
18:10
military information he said I'd rather lose the war than do
that if we lower ourselves that that level then what's
18:17
the point Abraham Lincoln was presented with the same
dilemma during the Civil
18:22
War and um and and said no we're not going to do that and he
wrote uh
18:29
guidelines Against torture for the US military that later
became the basis for the Geneva Convention that is our Legacy
18:35
to the world the Geneva Convention you don't torture people
and Dick Cheney introduced that extraordinary Renditions
18:42
openly torturing people bragging about it if you asked Dick
Cheney today do you
18:48
disavow any of those policies he would say no I embrace him
the war in Iraq was a great thing we got rid of Saddam
18:55
Hussein it's insanity and he has not changed so why is the
endorsing come
19:02
Harris it's not because the the the neocons have changed
it's because the
19:08
Democratic party is now the party of the neon when when I
interviewed you last
The inversion of the major political parties
19:13
time I asked you a question that I've asked almost I think
every Democrat that I've spoken to or former Democrat which
19:20
was when does the left go too far and you answered that in
that question you said when they align with Dick Cheney
19:27
they've gone too far that's where they are now yeah well so
this is so how do you how do you explain I I'd like to
19:33
know what happened by the way I could go on with that list
of departures from the
19:38
Democrat yeah yeah extraordinary inversion and you know I
studied
19:44
American history in in um in college and you know one of the
ways that we study
19:50
American history is is according to these four big
realignments that happen among the parties during different parts
19:56
of our history and we're going through one of those real Ms
today with the Democratic the you know
20:02
the the Democratic party was the party of civil rights is
now become the party of censorship the party of surveillance
20:08
yeah it was the party of that that was fighting against the
the the subversion
20:16
of American democracy by big corporations by Wall Street and
and uh and you know and and
20:23
corporate uh Robert barents and Titans today the Democratic
party is the party
20:29
of Wall Street is the party of big Pharma big Tech a big AEG
a big food of the military industrial
20:35
complex when I was a kid the Democratic party was the party
of the poor the Republican party was the
20:41
wealthy party that's where most of the wealth in this
country 70 or 80% was in the Republican party we were the party
20:48
of the firefighters the cops the union leaders the uh and
and it very
20:53
interesting that the Republican convention you had for the
first time in history Shan O'Brien the president of
21:00
Teamsters Union speaking to Great Applause I this was
unheard of I I was
21:06
on tour recently with JD Vance and we spoke at the
firefighters
21:11
convention in Boston and he was he was touting about the
importance of the rep
21:17
today's Republican party for collective bargaining which was
a a criminal act in the past to the Republicans during the
21:24
2020 election Jordan roughly 50% the people in this country
voted for Trump and roughly 50%
21:32
voted for Biden the 50% who voted for Trump own 30% of the
wealth in this
21:38
country the 50% of voted for Biden own 70% so you the the
Republican party is
21:45
the party of the poor the party of the working class the
Working Poor of unions
21:50
and and uh and the Democratic party has been become the
party of billionaires
21:56
Donald Trump chased billionaires out of the Republican party
and they've all gone off the chase the neocons out of
22:03
the Republican party and I would also argue Republican party
is now the party
22:08
of the of true environmentalists the the fixation that you
know and this is the the the space
Atrazine and endocrine disruptors
22:15
that I came out of and I got into you know environmental
work of working for
22:22
commercial fishermen on the Hudson River and then Rivers all
over the country protecting a
22:27
habitat protecting water clean air protecting our children
against toxins and it's andrine disruptors there's a
22:35
chemical now the second most used chemical in this country
pesticide in this country is adrine it's banned in
22:41
Europe banned all over the world but we use it here it's in
63% of our drinking
22:47
water there's a famous African-American scientist named
Tyler Hayes who's at the
22:53
University of Berkeley he he did a famous experiment that
anybody can look up on the
22:59
internet and it uh he put 70 African water frogs in a an
aquarium he put
23:08
atrazine in the water of that aquarium that was less than
epa's level so it's
23:13
less than the levels we have in 63% of our water supply 60
of those frogs became sterile
23:21
they're all male frogs 60 became sterile 10% of those frogs
turned female and
23:28
they were able to produce fertile eggs so it changed their
sex and of course normally you know when
23:37
you see something like that in an animal model the first
thing you want to do is test it in a m Mamon model and then a
23:44
human model those tests were never done so we don't know
what impact it's having on our children if any but I think those
23:52
studies ought to be done with the current Administration
proposing significant tax hikes in
23:58
almost 40% top income tax rate a 7% increase to the
corporate tax a capital
24:03
gains tax on unrealized gains and plans to add nearly $
trillion to an existing $2 trillion deficit many are considering
24:10
tax sheltered and inflation sheltered options for their
Savings in this climate Birch gold group offers valuable
24:16

24:59
I've been trying for 40 years to get Republicans in you know
Fox News and
25:05
elsewhere to pay attention to this threat of endocrine
disruptors and they ridiculed me to
25:12
wrting me you know and just ignored me Dr Carlson did an
extraordinary
25:18
documentary a year and a half ago on endocrine disruptors
and basically said
25:23
all the things I just said and he was abs absolutely
attacked
25:29
by the left and by the mainstream environmental community of
this and then you know the other big issue with the
Real environmentalism is for the sake of humans, offshore
wind farms and the fake Green Movement
25:36
mainstream environmental is this fixation on carbon alone
that all the things that brought us into the
25:41
environment people become environmentalist not because
they're scared of a of a line on a graph and you
25:48
know you're going to be dead after you know at this point in
history if you don't
25:54
behave we got involved because of love because of Love of of
the habitat
25:59
because love of the environment because love of our purple
mountains majesties our rivers and streams understanding
26:06
we're not protecting nature for the sake of the fishes and
the birds we're protecting it our own sake because nature enriches
26:12
us and this has been forgotten by the environmental movement
and they they've simply become fixated on carbon alone
26:20
and that is the only issue and you know I'm watching the the
26:25
outcome of that now on the coast of the Atlantic coast of
North
26:30
America if 21 offshore wind farms being built it's
privatized 5,000 square miles
26:38
of land between the Gulf of Maine and North Carolina and
they're pounding into
26:43
the sediment 2200 of uh car turbines
26:49
turbines are unspeakably large the just the blades on those
turbines are th000 ft long they're bigger than the Eiffel
26:56
Tower they're all made in China know and when they explode
which one did off in
27:01
man Tucket a month ago they put shards into the water so you
can't swim without getting cut you can't go to the beaches
27:07
in an Tucket because of the shards on they're killing the
whale the nymphs of
27:13
national marine fisheries have have warned that the that the
turbines are
27:18
going to cause the collapse of the Cod fishery because
they're in the spawning grass no the environmental movement
27:25
doesn't care they built these and they are destroying the
whale populations and
27:30
everybody knows it in two years we've had you know on
average there was about four groundings a year we've had 109 oil
27:39
tests unexplained over the past two years long since
27:45
2016 we've been averaging 16 to 20 a year and these are
right wh right whales
27:51
there's only 368 left in the world only 70 fertile Fe
27:56
females Makey humac whales and other wh large whale species
and they're being exterminated
28:03
and everybody's pretending it's not the wind farms but
nobody's there's no other explanation there's been no other
28:10
changes and the um the Federal Environmental agencies that
regulate
28:15
this also regulate oil production in the Gulf of Mexico the
rule is that if
28:21
there's a single whale death within 50 Mi of an operation
everything comes to a
28:26
halt till it's explained they've waved that rule and they've
28:31
refused to investigate the death they refused to do proper
necropsies of the Dead Wells to keep us in the dark about
28:38
what's actually causing this but everybody knows what's
causing it and the big environmental groups the
28:44
inside the bway groups including my group that I L which is
nrdc but Sierra
28:49
Club and Greenpeace they're all pretending it's not
happening you have the small
28:55
environmental groups on the coastline the 17 you know these
little environmental groups that are going
29:02
crazy protesting and demanding investigations but they have
been excluded now for the process and and
29:08
then you're seeing the same you know all of those these wind
farms are all being
29:15
built by Foreign companies right the foreign they nobody
would build a wind
29:20
farm offshore wind I'm very much in favor of onshore wi I've
built onshore wi my brother's in that business you you
29:27
know onore WI very efficient and very very effective and we
have the best onshore wind in the world here in the
29:32
United States onshore wind can provide wind uh Power at
about 11 cents a kilowatt hour
29:40
offshore wind 33 cents a kilowatt hour the average price of
energy in this country is about 14 to 16 cents a
29:46
kilowatt hour onshore wind is more than double that I mean
offshore wind so no
29:52
utility in the world would ever build one of these towers
unless it wasn't uh funded
29:58
billions of dollars in federal subsidies and tax braks the
foreign companies
30:04
can't because they're foreign they cannot take advantage of
us tax braks so they
30:10
get the big Financial houses from our country to finance
them so they can take
30:16
those tax breakes so the the the big players are Black Rock
Goldman Sachs
30:23
Morgan City bank Wells Far all the big contributors that
Democratic
30:29
party and they are they've gotten the tax breaks from the
inflation reduction act which was Joe Biden's signature
30:37
environmental accomplishment but it's not actually
protecting the environment it's all about subsidies these giant
30:43
boond doggles for huge players that are destroying the
environment the other big
30:49
779 billion dollar of subsidies are are going to carbon
capture which is tearing
30:55
up the Midwest farmland oh this abon tle to Big oil
companies to Big methane
31:01
companies to Big A to take the carbon from methane plants
and then inject it
31:08
into deep Wells oil wells in the bachan shell and in
Southern Illinois to bring out the last drops of
31:16
oil so instead of reducing carbon they're actually
increasing carbon in the environment it's just this
31:23
extraordinary and it's $79 billion in subsidies do something
that is an
31:28
absolute bagle and there's no other way to describe it I'll
tell you one other
31:35
thing there's there there's one of the byproducts of of
31:40
carbon capture is um uh is sulfur U is
31:47
sulfuric acid which the Woods Hole Marine
31:54
Institute now has a contract to dump two two uh 2 million
metric tons of U of
32:03
this material which is destroys any form of life it actually
destroys your genes
32:08
and and and destroys at the cellular level it dump it into
the ocean often then tuck it and uh and you know it's
32:17
part of this process and they're all going along with it
because they've all been paid off and it really is kind of
32:22
it's sickening it's criminal and uh it's uh uh you know and
32:29
that is somehow as I said there's been this huge inversion
where the Republicans are opposing that
32:36
Republicans are focused on protecting the environment
protecting habitat protecting our children from these toxic
32:42
chemicals and the Democratic party and the the associated
environmental groups have forgotten about that mission so you
The deep state apparatus, “They literally canceled the
primaries”
32:50
pointed to this inversion you described the um failure on
the Democrat side to
32:57
continue standing for peace you're very skeptical about the
environmental movement in relationship to Democrat
33:03
policies you talked about Free Speech I'm curious how you
how that inversion
33:09
played out as well in your more personal experience while
you were running for president because the last time we
33:15
talked you were more or less embarking on your campaign and
so I I presume that you as a Democrat yes as a Democrat and
33:22
so I presume that and I know for for a fact that you had all
sorts of Misadventures let say on the campaign
33:28
route so I'm curious what you encountered practically
speaking in terms of impediments to your campaign
33:35
because you were as you as we all know you were trying to
what rehabilitate the Democrats to pull them to the center to
33:42
put yourself forward as a credible candidate so I imagine
and and maybe I'm wrong that there were things that you
33:48
experienced practically well because you've been in the
realm of abstraction to some degree that you experienced
33:54
practically while you were on the campaign trail that also
what would you say made you much more cognizant of how
34:00
the political process actually works particularly on the
Democrat side so what what was that like well yeah and
34:07
that is the ultimate irony that the other part of the
inversion is the Democratic party is now uh come out
34:14
essentially against democracy um and you know dur I saw that
34:19
firsthand because I saw you know I was not normally in order
to choose a president when my father wanted to run
34:26
in in 68 he challenged the president of his own party just
like I did but he was there was primaries and he was allowed
34:33
to challenge him and it forced Johnson to step down I think
if I'd been able to
34:39
challenge into the same situation um President Biden that he
would have been forced to step down much earlier because
34:45
he would have been forced to debate me people would have
seen his impediments much earlier and we could have had real
34:52
democracy you could have had other people coming to the race
not just me but you know Gavin new and Amy clage and
34:58
pres vice president Harrison other people would have run but
instead they just called off the
35:04
primaries they literally cancelled the primaries and they
gave um you know they gave the election to President Biden
35:11
without ever coming out of the White House um they did not
want them to debate clearly because they did not want
35:18
to see some of you know the public to see some of these
deficiency so you had a kind of apparatus that was running a
35:26
candidate who was is uh who was unqualified for the
35:32
job and everybody now now recognized that but they wanted
him in there
35:37
anyway because they needed a figurehead who could win the
election and who's they well you talked about the
35:44
military-industrial complex well yeah but I you know I I'm
not even going to go into you know sort of the deep State
35:50
analysis but I would just say I don't know who made the
decision I you know clearly there were people around him you
35:58
know and it could be Anthony blinkin and you know Sullivan
and even you know who
36:04
knows who else but who were whoever was calling the shots
and
36:10
you know there was a it was a really really unbelievable
moment at the or
36:16
point in moment at during the Democratic National Convention
when Chris
36:22
guomo points up into the bleachers of the Arena you know
where the convention
36:28
was taking place and there was these high seats the Box the
owner's boxes up in the upper rim of
36:34
the and he said those are the boxes that are cost a million
a million and a half
36:40
to be in that box right now and those are the big donors of
the democratic party the corporate donors the black
36:45
rocks these kind of groups that are up there the military
industrial the big Pharma he said we don't even know who
36:52
they are but they're the ones that are making all the
decisions here on the floor and you know those that people
36:57
that ultimately anointed KL Harris you know who I don't
37:04
think is I I don't want to be mean-spirited and I've I've
been very disciplined about not name
37:11
calling uh to me it's a disqualifier to be president of the
United States if you don't believe in freedom of speech and
What RFK Jr. thinks should disqualify Harris from running
for president, the free marketplace of ideas
37:18
uh vice president Harris has repeatedly said that the first
amendment is a
37:23
privilege not a right um that the government has a duty
37:28
to censor what she calls misinformation that that's not
protected
37:33
by the first that's a very dangerous word misinformation
it's first of all the first amendment protects all
37:41
speech it protects lies it protects you know of not it was
passed not to protect
37:47
convenient speech prot but to protect the speech that nobody
wants to hear and
37:52
when the government takes upon itself the the right
37:58
to decide what's true and what's not true then you have a
totalitarian system because of course it's going to you know
38:04
and we saw this during Co where the government was really
the biggest propagator of misinformation of factual
38:11
factually inaccurate information um that it then uses the
38:16
control of information to manipulate the public and by the
way protecting lies is important because
38:24
a lot of the a lot of the the assumptions that we have about
38:32
life and policy and politics and War and Peace and and the
38:38
economy um started out that that now we believe as
consensual truth started out
38:46
as as hypothesis or suppositions that people consider
dishonest or lying or
38:52
wrong or erroneous or misinformation back then the whole
process of democracy
38:57
Y is a dialectic in which you know new ideas that are
unpopular that appear
39:03
manipulated to dishonest challenge existing realities
39:09
and in that dialectic you know in the furnace of debate and
the um and the of
39:14
dialogue of conversation these ideas are annealed
39:20
and in a true democracy functioning democracy they rise in
the in the marketplace of ideas and become policies

Jordan nobody should be an Arbiter at the

beginning at the outset as to what you can talk about and
what you can't and the and then and the the impulse of the
The larger disease infecting the Democratic Party
41:09
democratic party to censor debate is part of a larger
disease which
41:15
is which is has to do with centralized control rather
democracy and the
41:21
mistrust of the people the mistrust of the deos which is the
people which is
41:27
what you know democracy is is is uh named after
41:33
oh they they believe that the government needs to control
what people hear so that they don't become infected with
41:40
dangerous ideas and you know it was dangerous ideas that
launch the American Revolution an idea that people could
41:47
actually govern themselves which was considered a lie back
then oh you need
41:53
and you know and they won the Revolution and um and then you
know our
41:59
nation has been about trusting people and avoiding
centralized um mechanics of
42:06
control and now the Democratic party is all about the
centralization of control it's about surveillance it's about
42:13
controlling the flow of information it's about top- down
policies that um that
42:19
you know are dictated by an oligarchy and uh and it's the
opposite of
42:25
democracy and you know so I saw that firstand and I saw it
in the Democratic
42:30
party alone this is an irony from the beginning our polls
were showing and all
42:36
the national polls were showing or almost all of them and I
was hurting president Trump and about 57% to 60% of
42:45
the people who said they were going to vote for me said that
if I left the race they
42:50
would switch their votes to Trump so me being in the race
was actually helping the Democrats it was Democrats who were
42:58
trying to destroy my campaign who were trying to you know
sued me despite that
43:03
yeah and and it's very strange right because I was helping
them yeah the
43:10
Republican Party made no effort to keep me off the ballot
they didn't make efforts to discredit me I mean president
43:16
Trump said you know obligatory bad things about me that I
was a left-wing radical and all this stuff but they
43:22
weren't mean-spirited things and they weren't you know there
was no effort to
43:27
keep me from speaking um the Democrats kept me from speaking
that you
43:33
know and their Allied media Outlets when when uh when Roso
ran in 1992
43:43
Jordan he he had he was 10 months in the race and he had 34
interviews on the
43:49
mainstream media on ABC NBC CNN Etc right in the 18 months
that I spent the
43:56
race I had two live interviews on and how long were they I
what how long were
44:01
the interviews well they weren't long I mean the longest one
was with Aon
44:07
Bernett which was I think 22 minutes maybe 27 minutes so you
got live
44:12
interview so they can't you know they can't censor it if you
do a taped interview they cut out whatever they
44:19
don't want the public to hear yeah oh I had two live
interviews during during 18
44:25
months compared to 34 interviews in 10 months that he had oh
they W you know I
44:31
wasn't allowed to write letters to the editor to The
Washington Post the New York Times any of the mainstream uh you
44:37
know the sort of the democratic um periodicals and or
publish editorials
44:43
none of them I could not speak to that constituency and you
know that's really
44:49
why you know I had to withdraw ultimately and then they
wouldn't let me on the debate stage yeah right and that
44:54
was a collusion too because if you had the old debating
commission that was run by originally for the first 15 years you
45:03
know my uncle had the first televised debate 1960 and for 20
years after that it was
45:11
run by the league of woman voters which was independent
unbiased and they had their own rules for letting people in
45:17
they would have let me in under their rules and for the next
you know after
45:22
1980 it was run by the um the commission on presidential
debates which was also
45:29
unbiased and but now but President Biden and president Trump
said we're not going to use the commission on debates now
45:36
we're going to make a separate deal with CNN and we now know
what happened in
45:42
that New York Times was reported in their conversations
where President
Keeping RFK Jr. off the debate stage, “clearly it’s
illegal”
45:47
Biden said we are not going to be on the stage with Robert
Kennedy so we want you to keep him off and if if he if you have
45:54
rules to let him on then we're not and for CNN you know it's
it's tens of
46:01
millions of dollars for that debate and then they're G to
get why did
46:07
Trump agree and they're gonna get hundreds of million well
you know he he kind of he went back and forth on it so
46:12
the Republicans were not entirely good on that but he did
say publicly if you know I think he should be on the de yeah
46:18
yeah I remember that and then um then the same thing
happened with ABC and
46:24
they adopted rules that that actually I was able to reach
their metrics their
46:31
thresholds but they still get me off the debating stage and
that's illegal clearly it's
46:37
illegal under FEC rules you're not allowed to deliberately
exclude another
46:42
candidate from the debate without neutral rules and they
you're not allowed to develop rules
46:48
specifically to keep somebody off the debate otherwise the
made itself becomes an illegal campaign contribution and right
46:56
of course and that's why you know uh Trump's lawyer you know
went to jail for
47:01
that right so they they what they were doing was criminal
the FEC is an anemic
47:08
organization that is half of the commission is Republican
half are Democrats so independ none of them care
47:14
about an independent and they you know so they just didn't
act on it I you know about I don't know three
47:21
months ago President Biden and K Harris uh gave
47:27
this statement about Vladimir Putin where they said they
were ridiculing him because he had
47:33
won the Russian election with I think he got 88% of the vote
and they said well you
47:41
know that's because he didn't let anybody else run against
him and because he controlled the media so you know
47:48
that's not really democracy well that was the same system
they put in place over here so the whole thing was
47:55
uh was was an irony but you know that is also the fact the
Democratic party
48:01
abandoned democracy was another part of this inversion that
that has taken place and that I you know my wife saw that
48:09
process firsthand and uh I think you know it um it changed
some of her
48:16
worldview and made her she wasn't happy about me endorsing
president Trump at
48:21
all um and did not want me to do it but it became I think
you know tolerable for
48:27
her where she uh um and that was important for me to have
her on board
48:33
right so can can I ask you a little bit about what I've seen
as a major transformation on the Trump side and
Tucker Carlson brought Trump and RFK Jr. together
48:39
it's allayed some of my concerns hypothetically about the
manner in which he might conduct an Administration like
48:45
I think he made a major error in the debate with Harris not
stressing
48:51
continually the makeup of the team that he's gathered around
him at the moment I I was with some people earlier today
48:58
about the fact that if I was an American which I'm not I
would vote for Trump
49:03
merely because musk said he would head a commission on
Investigation into inefficiencies in government and to me
49:09
that like that's a stunning opportunity because musk has
shown time and time again that he can do exactly that sort
49:15
of thing he has musk he has you he has tulsey gabard he has
JD Vance he has VI
49:22
ramaswami I mean first of all these are unlikely Republicans
to say the least and they're also remarkable people and
49:29
so it seems to me that along with the inversion of the
Democrats that you described and laid out in in multiple
49:36
Dimensions there's also been a transformation not only of
the Republicans in the way you said but also
49:42
in the trump in the team that's gathered around Trump
himself and so well I'm curious
49:48
what you think about Trump per se you've met with him many
times now and you guys have obviously called together something
49:54
approximating a functional agreement he obviously listen to
you on the health front but then there's these other
49:59
people that are surrounding him at the moment too that seem
to be well they they remind me in some ways they remind
50:06
me in some ways of you they're not the typical political
players they're much more entrepreneurial they're not they're
50:13
certainly not classic Republicans and so what do you how are
things going with
50:19
you and Trump you said a bunch of things about the Democrats
that were critical but you haven't yet elucidated
50:27
your opinions with regards to Trump and the team that's
around him now so I'm curious about your your sentiments in
50:33
that regard yeah I mean I had you know multiple discussions
I got um a call
50:39
from about two hours after uh president Trump shooting in
Butler I got a call
50:45
from a guy called Cali means who is uh I'm really a genius
who's been on the
50:52
the Forefront of reforming our food system and you know
dealing with the chronic disease epidemic he and his
50:59
sister Casey me who did this wonderful interview with u with
Tucker
51:05
that you know introduced a lot of people to them he called
me and he said to me
51:10
you know are you interested in talking to uh the Trump team
about you know some
51:15
kind of a partnership about perhaps unifying your
51:21
parties and he um and I said no immediately and then
51:27
I actually called my family um members and talked to you
know a number of of
51:33
like you know my immediate family members and and um they
said uh you should talk to
51:40
them my my wife said you know you should talk to him but she
was not thinking
51:46
about unifying the party she was just thinking about and he
had just been shot and that
51:52
um you know my because I came from a background where my you
know my uncle my
51:57
father were killed by assassins that it would be a
compassionate thing to talk to him but
52:03
my kids were you know you should talk to him about you know
um about hearing him
52:09
out on what he has in mind and um so I ended up I then sent
CI
52:18
means a text saying you know I'm interested and then a few
minutes later I got a a text from a three-way text
52:26
from Tucker Carlson with an unknown number that was
52:32
President Trump's cell phone and he said you know uh will
you guys talk and then
52:39
I said yes and a few minutes later I got a call from
president Trump and we talked probably for 30 or
52:45
35 minutes and we talked about um a whole lot of issues
different issues and
52:51
you know about his shooting and and uh about the issues that
I was interested in
52:57
and he expressed a kind of a at that point was which was a
53:02
u a conformance with me on some of an alignment with me on
some of those
53:08
issues and we agreed to meet the next day and we ended up
meeting in miluk and we had I think probably about two and a
53:15
half hours together and um at that point we talked about the
53:20
food system we talked about the chronic disease epidemic we
talked about the uh about the cons and the addiction to
53:28
war and I was impressed by his just uh I would say visceral
revulsion about the
53:35
Neons and about their view of an Imperium abroad at a
National Security State at
53:41
home which go hand in hand because imperialism abroad is
inconsistent with
53:46
democracy at home and um with also his appor for
53:52
censorship which he was again it was viseral with him and I
I think part of that is because he's seen it in action
53:59
you know he's been the target of censorship the same as I
have and um so then we agreed that maybe
54:09
there was a uh there was grounds to meet on they wanted me
to do something at the
54:14
at the convention the Republican convention and I was not
ready to do anything and then after that I actually
54:22
contacted the Harris campaign to see if she would have a
conversation with
54:27
me and she just said out right now and then uh what why do
you think that was I
54:34
mean you'd think a conversation I don't know I don't to me
it's unimaginable
54:39
that you know you wouldn't have a conversation that kind of
conversation particularly because you
54:46
know my um uh because the the race can be so
54:52
close it's going to be within two or three points and I had
a a following enough that was
54:59
large enough to swing it one way or the other and at least
thetically um so you
55:07
know I would it guilt by association is it something like
that I mean I've had a lot of experience democr so Radioactive
55:14
in the Democratic party and also they you know they believe
their own publicity so they've
55:21
they're all reading the New York Times and watching CNN and
if you're living in that uh
55:27
information egoism first of all you'll never see me talk
explain my own issues
55:33
what you'll hear is that you know I'm antifa and that I'm
55:39
anti science and that I'm uh I'm a crazy person and that uh
I'm a lunatic and you
55:46
know all the other things that are just are kind of the
standard defamations and and perjuries about me on the on the
55:55
Democratic control Media or a line media so and they're
probably believing
56:01
parts of that and you know um so who knows that I can't look
into her her
56:07
mind and and explain what what they did you know why they
did I I could speculate a lot but you know what's the
56:15
point and then I continued having conversations with the
Trump
56:21
campaign and uh with President Trump himself in a number of
personal conversations
56:28
imagine waking up one day your entire world turned upside
down that's the reality for countless families in Israel
56:35
right now Community shattered lives uprooted and a constant
threat looming overhead it's a stark reminder of how
56:41
quickly peace can crumble in times of chaos it's not just
about surviving it's about standing firm showing solidarity
56:47
and taking action that's where the International Fellowship
of Christians and Jews comes in they're not just watching from the sidelines
they're on
56:53
the ground providing real tangible support now as we
approach the one-year Mark of October 7th the fellowship is
56:59
launching something truly remarkable it's called the flags

God bless and thank you
Agreeing to a unity campaign; forming a team with Vance,
Gabbard, and Musk
57:56
and I ended up going to maral Lago with Amarilis my
daughter-in-law who runs my
58:03
campaign and we sat down with uh with Don Jr and with uh
with President Trump
58:11
and and Susie Wild's campaign manager for several hours and
talk through these issues and
58:18
we agreed to do a Unity campaign where we would like they
have in Europe where
58:24
there are you know where there um there's coalitions where
you don't you don't give up your own independence or
58:31
Your Capacity to criticize your allies on things with which
you don't agree with
58:36
them and and he was very agreeable to that and on the things
that on the issues that we don't agree on that I
58:42
would continue to criticize him and he could criticize me
without penalty and uh to our to our alliance
58:50
and that um that uh the issues that we
58:56
did agree on he agreed to make them priorities and to um and
to involve me
59:03
in some way in uh in helping to choose the new government
and helping
59:10
to give emphasis to the policies that I was concerned about
and the three
59:16
policies were Children's Health and the chronic disease
epidemic and which involves the food system and the and you
59:23
know and getting the corruption out of the the public health
agencies out of
59:29
USDA um second handing the censorship and and uh and
59:36
surveillance and number three ending the uh the Warfare say
ending the Ukraine
59:42
war immediately and um all of those are issues that
59:48
he those are big issues had come to on his own and
59:53
that I think he appreciated my in insights on some of those
issues and my
59:59
uh passion for some of those issues and my knowledge about
some of those
1:00:05
issues expertise and he welcomed me you know my involvement
I mean one of the thing you
1:00:12
asked me about what I sort of had come to discover about
President Trump and he
1:00:17
said to me a number of things that were very Illuminating
one is that he and
1:00:23
Donald Jr um and JD Vance were
1:00:29
absolutely um had extraordinary antipathy toward
1:00:35
what the neocons have done to our country I was surprised
about that how knowledgeable they were and how
1:00:41
passionate and JD Vance is a a soldier and so and
1:00:47
he his understanding of the Neons comes out of his own you
know service abroad and his own um military service and then
1:00:55
Donald Trump Jr I don't know exactly how he came
1:01:01
to his uh antagonism toward them but it is uh it was it's
very very
1:01:09
heartfelt that gave me a lot of confidence as well that he's
surrounded by people who are close to him that are
1:01:14
in his family and that you know are going to um are going to
be involved in
1:01:20
his administration who agreed with me and we talked at that
time about um and fact it was an issue
1:01:27
that I brought out up about bringing Tulsi onto the team and
um and they were
1:01:34
very very welcoming of that idea and that of course another
one who had tremendous trouble with the
1:01:40
Democrats not only and and she was the deputy director of
the
1:01:47
Democratic National Committee y you know four years ago oh
she was a core you
1:01:53
know Democrat and a presidential candidate democratic
1:01:58
congresswoman um yeah had a formidable figure yeah and very
very formidable and
1:02:04
uh and somebody that I like personally a lot and have had a
long and very very
1:02:11
friendly relationship with and then um but he also said
something to me
Where Trump has grown in his thinking, launching the
transition team now
1:02:17
he said last time that I was in you know in 2016 he said I I
was uh uh we got and
1:02:26
and he he said we didn't really expect that that was going
to happen and uh
1:02:32
right obviously I was not prepared for it and he said you
know we launched the transition Committee in in
1:02:39
January and I was immediately surrounded by you know
business people and
1:02:45
lobbyists and saying you pick this guy pick that guy pick
that guy and he said and I did it I did what they
1:02:51
said he said I later came to regret it and a lot of those
people were bad people
1:02:56
you know how he he talks about that he said they were bad
people and um and he
1:03:02
said I don't want to do that this time I want to do
something completely different and he
1:03:08
said we're going to launch a transition committee starting
this week so normally
1:03:14
the transition committee is paid for by the G by the general
counting office and you don't laun till after the
1:03:22
election but with him he got private donors to uh to laot to
pay for the
1:03:28
trans transition committee and he's starting it four or five
months early
1:03:34
yeah so that they can actually put a government in place and
then another thing he said is you know one of the big
Trump on Project 2025, “that was written by a Right-wing
a**hole”
1:03:39
complaints against President Trump has been that he's sort
of a captive of the Heritage Foundation and project
1:03:46
2025 and he said to me uh he said you know project 2025 they
keep trying to
1:03:52
stick that to me that I've never read it I never heard it I
heard of it until
1:03:58
people started telling me that I was behind it and he said
that was written by a rightwing
1:04:04
this what he said to me and he said there are leftwing and
there are right-wing and that
1:04:10
was written by a right-wing and so in that way you know he
1:04:16
uh he kind of you know disavowed this kind of ideological um
pigeon hole that they're
1:04:23
trying to put him in and I think his administration is going
to be really interesting because uh like
1:04:30
you said he's surrounded by people who are entrepreneurial
who really are common sense
1:04:36
people who want to do the right thing for our country and
you know I also came
1:04:41
to understand president Trump in a different light and it's
easy for me to understand because I've been vilified
1:04:47
and demonized by the press and and the view of me you know
across the kind of
1:04:52
the liberal Landscapes is that you know I'm this real insane
crazy
1:04:58
person and um and you know but a lot of people I I I you
know take that
1:05:05
for as gospel as reality and you know I think a lot of
1:05:11
the things that have been said about President Trump are the
same thing there are things that are are propaganda
1:05:18
tropes there are very simplistic characterizations of him
that Miss some of the richness of his character and of
1:05:24
his uh of Personality yeah well that seems to be especially
the case now that he has this quite remarkable team around
1:05:30
him so let me Steelman the Democrats for a second and and
tell me what you think of this I I've have a number of democrat
Fears that Harris will be easy to manipulate
1:05:39
contacts and they've been making a case to me that things
have genuinely shifted um since Harris took the Reigns and they
1:05:46
point to things such things as relative um relatively less
emphasis being placed
1:05:53
for example at the DNC on the CL climate crisis and carbon
dioxide a relative um
1:05:59
shelving or siloing of the more radical leftist movement
within the Democrats which in my experience they've dis
1:06:05
they've what uh declined to even admit that that exists
which has been a kind of blindness that to me is nothing short
1:06:13
of miraculous is like is it possible that there is a shift
towards the center
1:06:18
in the in the Democrat Party and have we seen that since
Harris took the Reigns and do you have any hope in that regard
1:06:25
or was your experience your personal experience with their
machinations and the problems that you detailed out um so
1:06:34
comprehensive that that you think that that what was that is
that is too little
1:06:40
too late or not real at all I guess well it's hard to look
into
1:06:45
somebody else's head so and so I make a practice of not
doing it but what I
1:06:51
would say um is a couple of things one is that both Tim wals
and kin i' I I made this
1:07:00
point before and then Hillary yesterday who's kind of the
bellweather
1:07:05
for you know who the Democratic party is all have been very
very vocal
1:07:12
about um about censorship about their enthusiasm for
government censorship and
1:07:18
about how they're going to crack down on the social media
nobody has spoken out about the censorship now taking place in
1:07:24
Europe or in Brazil where do you think see that as
characteristic of nome's new
1:07:30
bill for example yeah the bill that they have here in in uh
in California but the
1:07:35
you know the ban on Twitter in in uh Brazil the arrest of uh
Pablo dero in um
1:07:45
in uh in France which is you know an extraordinary event
that the head of
1:07:51
telegram would be pulled off his plane when he sued for
refueling s and put in
1:07:56
jail and there's no reason to do that because Europe is
openly censoring
1:08:02
content already and and by the way they do have you know PA
der uh PA der is a
1:08:10
resident of abui and and France has a extradition treaty
with with Abu Dhabi
1:08:17
so they could arrest him anytime they wanted and uh it was
it seemed to be
1:08:23
like a a deliberate sign to the world about if you mess with
the machine you
1:08:28
are going to be chewed up and spit out and uh and also you
know I think having to
1:08:36
do with Ukraine war because telegram is widely used in
Ukraine and also Russia and there are Li
1:08:44
you know there are l serbs or groups in Ukraine that are
pro-ukrainian and in
1:08:49
and Russia that are any uh Ukraine war and or you know or
pro-russian in
1:08:56
that war and I think that that it was probably a US
instigated France has as
1:09:03
robust a an attachment to freedom of speech as we have in
our country they in 1789 during the French
1:09:11
Revolution they pass all of these bills that are still on
the books that give a that make freedom of speech sacred in in
1:09:19
uh France and then in the 1880s they passed another slew of
bills
1:09:24
that reinforced and fortified the tradition of freedom of
speech so it was as robust their
1:09:30
attachment of of of freedom of expression as it is in this
1:09:36
country and yet they abandon it you know overnight and if if
America really was the
1:09:44
exemplary Nation if we were the promoter of democracy around
the world we would spend less time
1:09:50
overthrowing democratically elected governments and more
time
1:09:55
defending freedom of speech as it as the Western democracy
is abandon it we we we
1:10:00
would be objecting and we would be saying you know this is
bad for you but it's also bad for Americans I
1:10:06
mean you had this you know somebody I would consider an
insane person Derry
1:10:12
Braton the commissioner of the European commission he quit
this week e oh thank God yeah yeah who who threatened mus El
1:10:21
musk with criminal and civil prosecution if he allowed know
without getting permission from
1:10:28
thear with the former president of the United States who is
the you know who's the the nominee of one of our two big
1:10:35
political parties you can't listen to him give a live
interview that he has to protect
1:10:40
the people of of Europe against that threat oh and we should
be objecting to
1:10:46
that the United States you know a real president President
Biden president or
1:10:52
vice president K Harris would be coming out waving flags
saying you don't do that you know we're we're no matter what
1:10:58
no matter what no matter what no matter what yeah it's
absolute you do not do
1:11:04
that you're you're not a democracy if you do that and
calling them out on it there was none of that so I think that if you don't
1:11:12
understand that um that censorship is incompatible with
democracy that that is
1:11:18
a disqualifier for being president of the United States I
worry that I you know the the
1:11:24
the things said the the the things that president that vice
president Harris says she's
1:11:32
for seemed to be politically driven and not heartfelt for
example you know her
1:11:37
big promise you know her promise about taxing tips which he
took from president Trump
1:11:44
and it was it was seemed like a last minute you know I'm
going to do this because it's politically
1:11:50
Savvy her change on the border her failure to explain why
she didn't do that that before you know the all of the
1:11:57
inconsistencies in that seem again not heartfelt but
politically driven the big signature you know for
1:12:05
economic reform that she promised during the convention to
give every new business in this country $50,000 gift
1:12:12
okay well you know that just is laughable um because in in
New York
1:12:18
there are thousand new businesses starting a day that would
be 50 million a day just
1:12:24
for New York businesses and if you gave that money there'd
be 2,000 or 3,000 no kidding that would be gained so fast you
1:12:30
could hardly imagine it and so you know she's talking about
hundreds of billions of dollars a year and where's that money
1:12:38
going to come from and then you know her other idea which is
just a half Bak
1:12:44
discredited terrible idea about uh price controls oh yeah
you know and wage
1:12:50
controls every time that's been tried has been a catastrophe
there's no place never done it right no it can't be done
1:12:58
right and so none of these seem to be wellth thought out
none of them seem to
1:13:04
be part of a a coherent and consistent ideology or thought
1:13:10
process none of them seem to be common sense and I think so
I don't I think
1:13:16
that you know she did very well in the debate but anybody
can do well on that debate who can anybody who can pass the
1:13:22
bar exam but she did it you know doing that debate the bar
for her was low too
1:13:27
to be fair the bar was low but you know anybody can do you
you can anticipate
1:13:34
every question that you're going to be asked or 95% of them
and if you're surrounded by good
1:13:39
people they can write you up a good 90c you know sound bite
so she had these
1:13:45
90-second sound bites and she delivered them well but I
think her understanding
1:13:51
of issues seems to be an inch deep and a a wide and that you
know what I would
1:13:58
really like to see is her going on long form interviews like
have I'd like to see that too right
1:14:05
and and and being asked a second question a third question
why did you do this explain this how is this consistent
1:14:11
what was your Evolution just asking the kind of questions
that any curious interview
1:14:17
would interview would ask and and make her explain that and
she can't do it and
1:14:22
this is somebody who's supposed to be president the United
States that are supposed to be able to go toe-to-toe with our critics around
the world to
1:14:30
explain her vision to explain her record to explain her her
aspirations for our
1:14:37
country it seems like she does not understand the uses of
power and we're seeing that you know her support the
1:14:43
Ukraine war and of nuclear war and you know that the the
risk of nuclear war I don't think she has any
1:14:51
comprehension I I don't think she has the ability to talk to
foreign
1:14:56
leaders um I haven't seen any evidence of that and I think
that she is
1:15:02
susceptible to manipulation because she doesn't have firm
ideas about her own of
1:15:07
her own I think she's susceptible to manipulation by the
Deep say I are people who want the war by the Neons
1:15:14
that run the white house now and run the foreign policy
apparatus of the state
1:15:20
department and I think I fear that she'll be manipulated by
them and that those entities actually want a nuclear
1:15:26
war so like they did in my uncle's time and like they've
done for many many years they want a confrontation with
1:15:32
Russia that will fragment Russia and and give us access to
its natural resources
1:15:37
and eliminate our big competitor you know in the west and
all of their policies have been
1:15:44
bad that's a dire that's a dire prognostication that's for
sure yeah so
1:15:49
that's why I I'm worried about you know her I I'm worried
1:15:55
she won't protect our civil rights our constitutional rights
at home and she will allow herself America to be dragged
1:16:01
into um really catastrophic Wars abroad and at this point in
history I think
1:16:07
that's you know we've got the emergence of all these
surveillance Technologies of the
1:16:12
AI this time in history if we get a president like that um
it will uh for
1:16:19

The U.S. is the sickest and fattest country on the planet
— and it’s entirely preventable
1:16:53
Prime so you you laid out three policy areas where you felt
that you could work
1:16:58
with with President Trump very effectively Health speech and
peace and we spent a fair bit of time
1:17:04
concentrating on free speech and on peace and War and I
think we'll turn to that more the peace and War issue on The
1:17:11
Daily we side in in the conclusion of our interview but
maybe we could close up if you don't mind with the with some
1:17:17
more thoughts on the Health crisis because one of the things
you've done that I think is unprecedented and that's
1:17:24
become perhaps more part of the public discussion since
you've teamed up with Trump is to make Public Health a
1:17:32
political issue and so you talked about the Public Health
crisis and maybe you could lay out the dimensions of that
1:17:37
crisis I mean I know there's an obesity epidemic there's a
diabetes epidemic these are very very serious problems and
1:17:43
so but you've concentrated on that in a way that just isn't
characteristic of anybody on the political landscape at
1:17:49
all and now it's become an issue that's front and center and
so I'd like to hear more about your thoughts why you think
1:17:55
that's such a fundamental um uh priority you know compared
to say free speech and
1:18:01
and War and Peace why health and what you see lay out the
landscape of the
1:18:07
problem and also the landscape of potential solution yeah
1:18:12
so we are now the sickest country in the world but we have
the highest chronic disease burden in the world when my when
1:18:19
my uncle was President I was a you know 10-year-old boy um
about 6% of Americans had chronic
1:18:27
illness and today 60% to and my uncle was President we spent
zero in this country
1:18:35
on chronic disease zero and uh today and
1:18:42
for many chronic disease there first of all there weren't
even diagnoses and there weren't drugs available um today
1:18:48
we spend $4.3 trillion so about 95% of our health budget
1:18:54
it's the biggest um and it's five times our military cost
it's the biggest um item in our
1:19:03
budget and it is the fastest growing and and not only that
so it destroy it's
1:19:09
destroying our country economically absolutely debilitating
and all of our other issues are small towards it if you
1:19:16
just measure its economic impact it has other impacts 77% of
1:19:22
American children are no no longer eligible for the military
because of chronic
1:19:28
disease and is that obesity related with kids one of them
you know obesity when
1:19:34
my uncle was present was 3.4% today it's 74% and what do you
think is driving the
1:19:40
Obesity epidemic uh it's it's such a transformation yeah I
mean it's being driven by poison food I um you know by
1:19:49
process Ultra process wheat sugar and flour seed o
1:19:55
um soy canola sunra flour um and then uh and
1:20:03
then you know wheat and corn which are you know are um which
are all all heavily
1:20:11
subsidized so those 90% of farm subsidies the crop insurance
Etc go to those three
1:20:18
categories of soy coin and wheat and um and those are the
feed
1:20:24
stocks for all of our processed foods they turn into sugar
they're they're all nutrient baren they you know the
1:20:30
original crops were nutrient rich with the GMO corops are
nutrient baren and they're heavily dependent on
1:20:36
pesticides the point of the way that the reason H GMOs are
so
1:20:42
popular is because they're resistant to pass the reason
they're resistant to pass right is because they are um they
1:20:50
are resistant to pesticides like lios so you can saturate
1:20:55
the whole landscape with glyphosate from airplanes and that
only thing that's green is GMO corn which is you know
1:21:03
which is uh Roundup Roundup Ready it's called Roundup
resistance corn and
1:21:10
because of that it's also very very heavily Laden with with
pesticides
1:21:16
wheat um glyphosate is also used as a desant which means it
dries out wheat so
1:21:22
it's it's sprayed on the wheat right at Harvest which means
it's going right into the
1:21:27
food and when that began in 1993 that's when you saw all the
the appearance of
1:21:32
all these gluten allergies and celiac disease and wheed
allergies and that you
1:21:37
don't have in Europe you know you can eat spaghetti here and
you're going to get eczema and all of these stomach
1:21:44
complaints then you go to Italy and you eat it and you get
thin oh but here um and
1:21:51
then the corn is turned into high fr corn syrup which is
just a formula for
1:21:57
making you obese and diabetic and uh Americans you know
diabetes is one of
1:22:04
the diseases when I was a kid the average pediatrician saw
one
1:22:09
case of diabetes in his lifetime so a 40 or 50y year career
he may see one case
1:22:15
of juvenile diabetes and today one out of every three kids
who walks to his office door is diabetic or
1:22:22
pre-diabetic and we spend more on Diabetes than our military
budget so
1:22:28
that is you know and nobody's talking about this you know
and and these are
1:22:34
the all of these autoimmune disease diabetes autoimmune
disease Alzheimer's is a form of diabetes it's type three
1:22:40
diabet it comes from Poison food oh um so is it is it the is
it how
1:22:46
much of it do you think is the toxin load per se and how
much of it do you think is carbohydrate it's a it's the
1:22:53
overload of sugars all of those grains turn into sucros and
and they're and
1:22:59
they're very low in nutrients so we're Mal nourishing K you
know you're seeing high levels of obesity and in the same
1:23:06
people people who have high levels of of obesity there's
also high levels of
1:23:11
malnutrition the most malnourished people in this country
are the most overweight right because they're eating
1:23:17
they're eating food like food like substances yeah and then
1:23:23
that's a good phrase and then you're they're they're covered
with with chemicals and pesticides plus some of
1:23:29
those are part of the food processing but some of them are
pesticides Etc there's a thousand ingredients in
1:23:36
our food that are illegal in Europe and other countries so
we're just Mass poisoning Us and nobody has chronic
1:23:42
disease epidemic like we do in our country that's why one of
the reasons we have the highest death rate
1:23:48
from covid we we had 16% of the covid deaths in this country
we only have 4.2%
1:23:54
of the world's population and so we did worse than any other
country and the CDC explains that
1:24:01
says it's not our fault it's because Americans are so sick
CDC said the average
1:24:08
American who died from covid had 3.8 chronic diseases right
right so it
1:24:13
wasn't Co it was killing him it was chronic disease right
and uh and you
1:24:18
know we had the sickest we have the highest chronic disease
burden we have the highest covid death rate and and then but it's not just it's
1:24:26
it's those autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis
juvenile diabetes lupus Crohn's disease all this
1:24:33
IBS all of these things had suddenly appeared in the mid 80s
that you know I
1:24:38
never knew anybody with any of those disease when I was a
kid yeah right the neurological diseases ADD ADHD speech
Autism rates have skyrocketed in just a few generations
1:24:46
languag Tex red syndrome narcolepsy Sleep Disorders uh
Tourette Syndrome ASD
1:24:52
autism autism rat in my generation 70y old men is about
1:24:58
one in between one and 1500 and one and 10,000 that's what
it is
1:25:05
today my children's generation one in every 34 kids
according to CDC one and
1:25:10
every 22 in California so you know and it is it is
devastating our Our
1:25:17
Generation it's our economy it's going to cause autism alone
so there's a
1:25:23
reason recent paper by Mark blel that shows it'll cost a
trillion dollars a year um by
1:25:29
2030 and then so then and then the Allergic Disease again
which I never saw
1:25:35
as a kid I had 11 siblings 71st cousins I never knew anybody
with a
1:25:42
peanut allergy why do five my seven kids have allergies you
know it's so you're up
How to fight back against powerful dark forces
1:25:50
against some big some major forces in fighting that
particular battle I mean
1:25:56
first of all you have to sway public opinion in that
direction and then there's going to be a massive Force AR
1:26:01
raid against any possible interventions that's for sure so
what tell tell me
1:26:06
what you think you could do and also tell me why you don't
think you would be
1:26:12
stopped well I think they're going to try to stop us but
I've been thinking about this for 40
1:26:19
years so I know how to do it and uh and
1:26:24
you know I've worked with Mark Hyman and Cy means and Casey
1:26:30
means and a lot of other people to figure out how to do it
without having to go to Congress to do it all with
1:26:36
executive orders and policy changes and you know I'll give
you one example I mean you can get floor out of
1:26:42
the water by executive order out of the water systems all
over the country and that is you know that's a big issue with
1:26:49
public health and cancer Etc but there are other things
1:26:55
like it would be very hard you never get Congressional
approval to to to ban
1:27:02
glyphosate which is causing all kinds of health problems and
Cancers all over this
1:27:07
country and so um but here's what you can do you can
1:27:14
NIH has a budget of $42 billion year and it distributes that
money to 56,000
1:27:21
scientists who are at research centered mainly University in
North America and you know Canada the United States and
1:27:27
and some in Europe and they're supposed to be doing basic
science but what they really do
1:27:34
nowaday is they do drug development for the pharmaceutical
industry so NIH is now the primary incubator for new
1:27:40
pharmaceutical drugs and it changed that that rule that that
changed NIH used to be the primary
1:27:48
scientific agency in the world it it change that changed in
1980 because we
1:27:54
passed a bill called the B do act that allowed NIH itself
and NIH
1:28:02
scientists to collect royalties on any pharmaceutical
product that they
1:28:07
developed so now that they follow the money and now what NIH
does is they're
1:28:12
in a partnership with Pharma they develop new products to
treat chronic disease and um and anybody
1:28:20
who tries to study the ideology the origins the causes of
chronic disease that scientist
1:28:26
will be blackfall forever and so what I'm going to do at you
know is change NIH and say we're
1:28:34
going to we're going to make the primary purpose of this
agency to develop
1:28:40
science on what's causing chronic disease oh right now
there's very little
1:28:45
science that says I corer causes diabetes that's deliberate
we don't have
1:28:52
that science because the agency does not want to see that
science I'm going to make sure that
1:28:58
science happens not one study but not just 20 studies but
100 studies that
1:29:03
show that now what happens when you have a 100 studies there
is a a rule in the federal
1:29:11
courts in this country called the dabert rule and that says
that if you believe you got sickened by a product like like
1:29:17
say you think Coca-Cola made you obese you can't sue
Coca-Cola unless
1:29:23
there's at least a a critical mass of studies maybe 20 or 30
that say that
1:29:29
that's what it does it's a liability enhancer well the the
judge has to make that decision about
1:29:36
whether you've passed the dabert threshold before he allows
you go to to go to a
1:29:41
jury oh in a big case like when I was tried the Monsanto
case I was part of
1:29:47
the trial team um the big threshold is can you pass Albert
can and we had about 20
1:29:55
studies that showed that monset that Roundup caused non
hodin somea and we
1:30:02
had Mouse studies we had brat studies animal studies bench
studies observational studies
1:30:09
epidemiological studies so a good range of all different
kinds of studies that show that once you get that critical
1:30:15
mass then you can go to a jury and once that happens the
product is through so when we we sued around
1:30:21
up we had 40,000 home gardeners who had gotten non hutkins
lym foma from using
1:30:28
round up at their backyards and the way that you try
multi-district litigation you try one of
1:30:34
those cases at a time right one after the other in Rapid
Fire till somebody says Uncle you either
1:30:41
lose them all and then you know it's you run out of money
because it costs a lot of money to try a or you win them all
1:30:49
and the the uh the maker of that product then has to come to
the negotiating table and and settle it we won 289
1:30:58
million in the first trial we won 89 million in the second
the third trial we
1:31:03
asked for a billion dollars we got 2.2 billion from the jury
and then Monsanto came to the
1:31:10
negotiating table and we settled the cases for 13 billion
and they agreed to take Round Up to take uh glyphosate out
1:31:17
of home gardening products M that's what you do got it you
once enough clian is
1:31:24
out there you don't have to legislate it against High fru
corn there the lawyers
1:31:29
are going to come out of the woodwork and they're going to
be representing a million kids with with diabetes and the
1:31:35
company is going to say we're not going to make this product
anymore all right well we should you're
1:31:40
on a tight timeline um I'm going to continue this discussion
on The Daily wire side I think I'm going to drill
1:31:47
down more into foreign policy and the state of the world
with regards to the what Eternal state of warfare that we
1:31:53
seem to drifted into yet again I'd like to talk about Israel
and Gaza and about
1:31:58
Ukraine and Russia there's other issues as well so if you're
inclined to join us on the daily wire side that's what's
1:32:04
going to happen and so um I guess the other thing I'd just
like to mention is we're going to see each other again in
1:32:09
about two weeks at in DC I believe at the rescue the
Republic the rescue the Republic yeah yeah that's been put
1:32:15
together by Brett Weinstein and everybody should come to
that that's going to be one of the if you care about the slide of
1:32:24
America into censorship surveillance and totalitarianism you
want to be at this
1:32:30
event because this is going to be like the march on the
Pentagon back in the 60s it's going to be the biggest March
1:32:36
ever the biggest event ever protesting the uh uh this this
really ugly descent
1:32:45
apocalypse for democracy right right well all right sir
thank you very much hopefully the powers
1:32:52
that be at YouTube will let this interview stand because
they took the last one down which I wasn't very happy
1:32:57
about so uh I hope oh definitely I hope we didn't transgress
against any of the invisible
1:33:04
rules but uh we tried to so thank you very much for coming
to see me it's much
1:33:10
appreciated and uh well good luck with your continued
negotiations with Trump
1:33:15

be quite something to see how this all plays out
1:33:20
in the next 50 days that's for sure so everybody who's
watching listening thank you very much for your time and
1:33:25
attention and give some consideration to coming to
Washington DC on September
1:33:30
29th for this rescue the Republic event it should be quite
the thing uh quite the celebration that's how Weinstein
1:33:38
characterized it uh there's music there as well as um
speeches from people whose
