NEWT:

Look, I think the left-wing media is in the basement with Joe Biden. I think they are all hunkered down, they are all hoping they can hide. They refused to cover these things. Senator Ron Johnson’s committee did a great report which is available for free, 85 pages goes through item by item. In the debate the other night, the truth is that Biden just lied, just flat out lied. Nobody at the Washington Post or New York Times or in the elite media want to do their job. The richest and woman in Russia sends a $3.5 million check to Hunter Biden. You would think that would be cause for some concern. A Ukrainian oligarch since huge amounts of money to hunter Biden around the time that the Russians are also occupying Crimea. You would think that would be cause for concern. The Chinese apparently turned over a billion dollars in investment money to Hunter Biden. Now Hunter Biden had one qualification, his last name Biden. If his name had been Hunter Jones, he wouldn’t have gotten a penny. The news media is literally is in the tank. They are all in the basement with Joe Biden hiding and hoping nobody will notice that they are refusing to cover this. You have the same thing frankly in Arizona with Mark Kelly who also has close relationship with the Chinese communists, and I think it’s truly fascinating because the Chinese communists, the dictatorship, has spent huge amounts of money on American campuses, on a variety of other efforts. Recently we arrested a New York policeman who had been spying on Tibetans in New York for the dictatorship. So there’s a tremendous effort underway to penetrate the United States and I think frankly paying all that money to Hunter Biden is just part of it. It’s a very dangerous. It raises real questions about what a Biden administration would be like. Who would be buying influence? Joe Biden either it is a clever political ploy or just because he is so out of touch with reality, he doesn’t know it. But you know Sean, if your son or my two daughters came home and said I just got a billion dollars from China, probably we would’ve noticed it. Or if they say gosh, $3.5 million check today from Moscow. They probably would’ve noticed it. Not Joe Biden and not “The New York Times” and not “The Washington Post.” It’s an amazing story.

NEWT:

I think there’s a very clear example that you and I chatted about briefly on the radio today. That Governor Cuomo’s announcing is prepared to close the all synagogues in New York. If you want a dictatorial party that thinks religious freedom doesn’t matter, think small business doesn’t matter, thinks your choices don’t matter, Governor Whitmer, the liberal Democrat of Michigan who just got knocked down by her Supreme Court has said that she didn’t have the power to do all the things she’s doing. Everywhere you turn around the country, liberal democrats believe they and government and dictate your life. I think what President Trump said absolutely draws a line in the sand. This is the land of the free and the home of the brave, you’ve got to get out of the basement. If it is the land of the timid and the home of the fearful, then hiding in a basement is perfectly reasonable. This is a really big choice election.

NEWT:

Well, I just got a nice note, from Robert Cahaly at Trafalgar which is the most accurate poll in 2018 and 2016. He now shows Trump up about five points in Ohio. If you look at the Zagfee poll they’re within two points. You look at the Independent Business Daily poll, two points. If you look something like the recent NBC poll, that frankly is a total disgrace. They oversample Democrats by about 15 points. Guess what you do a poll of only people who watch left-wing media, Biden does very well. I think Trump will win. I’ve said this all year. I think there’s a big hidden Trump vote and I think take the example I gave you a few minutes ago. If you want government to close your church. You want government to close your synagogue. You want government to destroy her small business, you’ve got a party, it’s the Democrats. That’s what they are doing. If you want people are going to fight the virus and not surrender to it, people who are going to work to get you a vaccine, people are going to work to get you better therapies, people who are going to use free enterprise to produce more than the rest of the world combined then you’ve got a party it’s the Republicans. The biggest gap I can remember since Abraham Lincoln’s reelection in 1864. It’s amazing.

NEWT:

Something like that. I am on your time for this. I think this is so important. I will get up every night that will help get the American people to understand.
