NEWT:

I’m doing great. I must say, you have to wonder how crazy Cuomo is to think that you can rule out all indoor dining in December and January in New York. It will be one thing if you were the governor of Florida. You think the governor of New York would realize it gets really cold and sometimes it gets really snowy. And his orders make no sense.

NEWT:

That’s right DeSantis actually cares about people. Cuomo cares about one person. Cuomo.

NEWT:

Well look he should be incensed, look American people are watching their country being stolen away from them. They are watching the Chinese become dominant. They are watching a level of penetration that’s unimaginable. They are watching Pelosi put Swalwell on the intelligence committee after she had been told by the FBI that he had been hanging out with a woman who was a Chinese professional spy. They are watching the Democrats lie about virtually everything. You know, people say oh, we should now make nice. We have spent four years with people like Peters lying about us, attacking us, trying to impeach the president, we have had the FBI commit crimes to try to destroy General Flynn and you look at all this stuff and we are still dealing with now in the election. What you have a total censorship by the media and the internet companies to block the American people. Ron’s a manufacturer. He ran to solve problems. He ran to create jobs. And I think he is totally frustrated by the depth of hypocrisy and dishonest that is unfortunately now the routine of the power structure in country.

NEWT:

Look, I think we are in one of the most dangerous periods in American history. You have a president elect who can’t even tell the truth about his relationship with the Chinese. There is a story today that he may appoint one of the two major movie executives who have been kowtowing to the Chinese for a decade to be the ambassador to Beijing. You have a situation where I just printed in my newsletter Gingrich 360 a speech by a Chinese professor who says openly in a class in Shanghai, we have friends in high places, now that Trump is gone, everything will be great again and we will be back to working with Wall Street, basically to rip off America. I think people need to realize how really deeply serious this whole problem is. And I think it’s a tragedy and I think It’s ironic that the “The Washington Post” has this democracy dies in darkness when they are new England the chief creators of the darkness, none of those newspapers, none of the media except Fox, had the guts to stand up to the “New York post” the oldest newspaper in the country, the fourth biggest, when it reported accurately what was going on with Hunter Biden. And Americans, all Americans ought to be enraged. They are watching their country be taken away from them by huge interest groups who are clearly more comfortable with the Chinese dictatorship than they are with the U.S. You see that if you look at Amazon — not Amazon if you look at Apple which now has a rule at Apple that you should say nothing negative about China this is really a dangerous thing. It’s not just about domestic politics. It’s about the very survival of America as an independent system.

NEWT:

Look, of course. But I’m a Republican partisan. I tweeted yesterday that if AOC is serious, all she and the gang have to do is refuse to vote for Pelosi. Pelosi doesn’t have the votes to become Speaker because Kevin McCarthy did such a great job the House Republicans gained so many seats that she literally has too narrow of margin. This is why she can’t take Swalwell off the intelligence committee. She needs his vote. If AOC and the gang says we will not vote for Pelosi, she would have to step down and they would have to look for somebody else. But I think this is a case of, you know, put up or shut up. And we are going to find out there is an old rule no guts, no glory. I think AOC talks a lot. She has a chance right now to actually do something and my guess is she will cave and just be like everybody that she attacks, and she will be just another compromiser.
