Mornings with Maria

NEWT:

This is an absurdity, this is citizen Trump. He is no longer President Trump. The idea that U.S. Senate is going to prosecute a citizen is an extraordinarily bad precedent. The fact is it’s clearly a lynch mob; You don’t have a judge, the person who is going to be presiding, Senator Leahy, said he is convinced Trump is guilty reminds me of the westerns of my childhood where you have a lynch mob, drunken judge who has already committed. They said bring the guy in, we’ll listen to him for 30 seconds before we hang him. This is not a trial, this is mock trial not a real trial, but something more I think deeper about this, by what right do a bunch of guys in Washington for years and years look how long Leahy has been there, what right do they tell 75 million Americans that you are not allowed to vote for the candidate of choice? This is an example of an oligarchy that has gone crazy. Look at the length of time in Washington guys would tell the rest of us who are allowed to vote for? The undermining of American system.

NEWT:

Look, the Democrats have got themselves in a box where they don’t believe in a wall to keep foreigners outside the United States, but they do believe in a fence to keep Americans outside their capitol. I tweeted over the weekend on Ronald Reagan’s 110 birthday, Speaker Pelosi tear down that wall. I think that the Republicans in House and Senate should go on full offensive about this. It is stupid, indulgent, insulting to the American people; it is embarrassment around the world. Think about people looking at the symbol of America: the capitol surrounded by barbed wire. This is I think the paranoid fantasy of left wing Democrats led by Pelosi, AOC, Schumer and others. It is a total lie, there is no reason to have this going on between capitol police, who I once worked with when I was speaker, and we modernized and the FBI, we have more than enough assets to quietly calmly protect the capitol, without this kind of bizarre — I think literally is paranoia.

NEWT:

I think first of all, Congress ought to be hold hearings. Biden has nominated someone from Washington state to the Department of Labor. She presided over 6 hundred million dollars being stolen by a Nigerian cybercrime syndicate in unemployment money. The state of California now believes that they paid out 31 billion not million, 31 billion dollars in unemployment compensation to people who are illegal including 1700 checks sent to same address, you know, it would be good for the Democrats, to look at how really incapable their bureaucrats are before they go rushing out to sending even more money to people who don’t exist. I mean the Nigerians were grateful, it’s even better than foreign aid. But it’s a little crazy for us to having our bureaucracy this incompetent. So I am very skeptical they may ram it through. If they do, from a Republican standpoint, that sets the stage for 2022 I think to be an enormous victory making Kevin McCarthy the next speaker.

NEWT:

Of course, look, what you have is a complete sellout of the World Health Organization as a subsidiary of China totally controlled by Chinese. It failed disastrously back in January and February, it’s failing now. We really need an honest national conversation about how well the Chinese are doing at taking over international organizations, and how bad the United States has been trying to compete with them, in these multinational organizations. This is a real long term problem for us, this is just one more example, and we have no way of knowing how many people died unnecessarily because Chinese communists refused to share information, lied about the disease, locked up doctors who tried to tell the truth. I mean I did a podcast with Dr. Fauci back in February when based on information available this then, he thought this wasn’t going to be a big deal. People can go to Gingrich360 and listen to it. He said this will be fine why did he say that? The World Health Organization siding with Chinese were lying to the rest of us.

NEWT:

It means if you go back and look at Biden’s speeches in China as vice president, he was totally pro Chinese. It means this is a dictatorship he doesn’t appreciate how aggressive they are becoming. He doesn’t understand that they’ve been flying military aircraft over Taiwan. He doesn’t appreciate what they have been doing in the South China Sea. He’s allied with giant international corporations who basically fronting for Chinese while they use slave labor, which they clearly do, and, you get products in America cheaper Nike, for example, Apple, they’re cheaper because they are developed by slave labor in China. The degree to when our rich elites are in collusion with Chinese dictatorship and Biden represents both ideologically comfortable with left wing dictatorships, and whose interest group support in many ways comes from people who have been made very rich by Chinese. I think it is very dangerous for the country.
