Unknown 0:04 So the other big debate obviously are the vaccinations now it's been allowed for there's been emergency use authorization has been extended to children, or those think 12 to 15. I think the current authorization allows anyone 16 and older to get the two or three available vaccines that are out there.
Unknown 0:29 And so, there's been this big push to kind of incentivize. Some would say coerce those who don't want to get the vaccine.
Unknown 0:40 In order to get them to get the vaccine, and Ohio they're wasting tax dollars, it seems to me on a lottery system that you're eligible for cash from the government, million dollars, your, your money, by the way this is federal money they're using remember that giant Coronavirus bill that passed under Biden, well this is what they're spending the money on. Not to help people but to have this cockamamie lottery system. Give a million dollars to people who win, who are vaccinated.
Unknown 1:15 It's like giving cigarettes to people or beer or something in exchange for medical treatment.
Unknown 1:22 It's really, it's really troubling.
Unknown 1:25 So, what Judicial Watch is investigating the vaccine, we're investigating the
Unknown 1:37 vaccine, then the vaccine adverse event reporting system.
Unknown 1:44 There's it's called.
Unknown 1:46 And because I don't know about you, but I don't trust the government to be forthright about anything these days I mean if you if you want to take the vaccine. That's, that's your choice, you have that choice.
Unknown 2:06 But my question is if the American people have the full information about that choice.
Unknown 2:13 Do they, do you think they do.
Unknown 2:17 Well, I don't. And so judicial watches ask questions of course we're getting stonewalled as we always are.
Unknown 2:24 And the government thinks they're above the law when it comes to being accountable to the American people through the Freedom of Information Act which gives us access to these documents.
Unknown 2:35 So what are they hiding. What are they hiding. In a related story there was a big fight this week in the Senate, between Dr Rand Paul Senator Rand Paul, who's also a medical doctor, and Dr. Fauci, about Fauci support or the government's support Fauci, is a key official in this area, about what is known as gain of function research now gain of function research as best as I'm able to describe it is, the manipulation of viruses, by scientists in order to make them more communicable in terms of being able to better and infect human populations and the alleged goal of this is to say, well, if this virus is out in the wild. What happens if it mutates, what would happen if it mutates and is able to jump into the human population, what would be the effects. So what they're trying to do is to study the effects.
Unknown 3:36 In order to be prepared if the jumps into the human population problem with that is, this process can potentially in theory as you might guess, resulted in viruses getting out anyway before we know what to do about.
Unknown 3:54 So what we're doing is we're actually creating and making the viruses, more likely to infect in trouble, human beings, without being adequately prepared.
Unknown 4:06 Now, Dr. Fauci was pushed on this issue because it's been well reported that federal funding has gone to this type of research, both here in United States and abroad, specifically the war on is to numerology where the right virus first arose.
Unknown 4:25 And so the question is did the virus was the, was the virus part of this gain of research, gained a function research. And was that the reason it got out of the lab.

[This note may be incomplete because it was exported before processing was finished.]
at the NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain of function research in the Wuhan Institute, do they find Beric. We do not fund your barracks gain of function research, Dr. Barrett does not doing gain to function research and if it is, it's according to the guidelines and it is being conducted in North Carolina.
Now thinking during a bad virus spike protein that he got from the Wuhan Institute, into the SARS viruses gain of function that is not a minority.
Unknown 1:07 That was on Tuesday with Rand Paul and the sainted Dr. Fauci they're sparring, over. I think probably pesky little details. Here's a join us to discuss is Tom Fitton is president of Judicial Watch Tom, thanks for joining us.
Unknown 1:24 You're welcome. Good to be with you both. I'm sure you heard the parsing of words there with Dr. Fauci say, you know, denying that the doctor there was doing any kind of gain of function research and then he said, Well, if it is then I'm sure it's being done by the guidelines. So he basically as far as I could hear Dr. Fauci did admit that there's going to function research going on in the uhand virus virological lab, didn't he.
Unknown 1:51 Yeah, he, he can't. He can't deny what's in the grant materials that have been already made public, and so there's kind of two issues that you have the gannet Dana function research that were going on here in United States, and Dr. Barrett who is referenced by Senator Rand Paul was actually partnering with a key official Wuhan Institute and the concern is that that expertise was shared and Rouhani went back and he that person went back and she and her Institute engaged in the gain of function research as well, in part with government funding that was given to a major organization that then shared part of that money with the blue one is to look there's there's little doubt that Wuhan Institute was engaged in gait and function research. We're working with US officials and our US scientists, with the help of us money. And the question is that lead to the emergence of the virus and there's strong evidence to date and anyone who tells you, oh that's impossible. They're just not telling the truth, it's, it's not conclusive that it happened, but the evidence is pretty strong. Yeah, I mean the core question is did US taxpayers fund the invention of the Coronavirus, that's it. And how do we get to the bottom of that, how will I know Judicial Watch is trying to get some answers on this, how do we get them.
Unknown 3:22 Well, we began asking for questions back last year, you know, give us documents about communications regarding the Busan Institute agreements and contracts and the specifics of the funding, and we've been getting this thinking about this, we have another lawsuit that we had sued for records about communications with who about Coronavirus as a CDC or specifically about Fauci and his top deputy, and we've been so what we've been getting documents would have been troubling. But what's also troubling is the reason we've been stonewalled is because the government's told us that Sachi has to review all the documents, before we get them. So you know, there's this kind of personal connections, reviewed material that flowed down at least one way of loss that we have. And it may help explain why after a year we haven't gotten anything on this, other than what's publicly available, it's, it's on the web about these contracts, and it's disturbing to hear Dr. Fauci tried to describe the function research. We're trying to say that what is what is gain of function research isn't
Unknown 4:35 because I think he's gonna have to acknowledge that the degree it took place that took place with his approval.
Unknown 4:43 So, okay so that's probably the crux because I'm a little confused, this has been going on under not just this administration, this has been going on for years, this goes back through the Trump administration right it goes back into the Obama years. So we know why not just be honest about it, I that that to me is the disconnect, why not just be honest about what's been going on because you can't blame it just on this administration and it would give the Democrats the pretext to blame it on Trump.
Unknown 5:10 Yes, but
Unknown 5:14 it also would be. Most importantly, it would be China. Because, again a function research occurred in China and trying to cover data. And if we had known the detail about what had happened. Initially, it might have helped with the response saved and save live which, which is what we're supposed to be all interested in yeah and there's a lot of money on the line too. There's the scientific community that Bennett has benefited from an open tab, we'd like to see that going so the last thing they want to do is be like, Oh, it turns out souping up viruses to make them more infectious has no discernible benefit to humanity and actually sometimes works against us. So these are, these are things we're not something that's perfect. The purpose of the gain of function research is to say, Oh well, there's this virus in nature, yes. What happens if we, if we kind of accelerate its development and change it around to make it more infectious to human beings. Right, let's, so we can pre prepare that if it happens with, with, with a response and, obviously, you know the benefits of it didn't materialize if indeed that's the case in this situation, they gave a bunch of research funded in part with US dollars, led to the emergence of the Coronavirus through the Wuhan Institute in China.
Unknown 6:32 Tom, do you think if we put Hunter Biden on the board of the Wu Han labs that maybe we could get some answers.
Unknown 6:39 Well, you know, there's, there's nothing that a presidential son can't do, when it comes to foreign government that'll protect the funding for years to come. Yeah, I thought maybe maybe that's the way to do it, you know, he's uh he's skilled in all things.
Unknown 6:55 To your point, Mary.
Unknown 6:57 Everyone knew this was going on. They knew immediately they jumped at anyone who raised questions about this, it's a small world, as, as Vince highlighted in this community. They all knew what the fundings about they all knew who's researching why. And this is what's so frustrating about the media coverage of this, most experts who saw this, I would suspect when they saw what was happening, they immediately said, I wonder if this if this is the basis for it. And instead, those involved in the funding of it, jump and attack anyone who raise questions about it, this is, you know, just another major scandal, and it wasn't Donald Trump out there trying to tell people, don't look at China, it was people like Dr. Fauci, absolutely Tom Fitton, thank you so much and thanks for all the work you're doing, appreciate it. Have a great weekend. You're welcome 644 on WM al Washington comes to talk I do appreciate the back and forth, especially with someone that doesn't agree 105 point nine FM together wmal m a L.
