  Speaker 2: Well with us right now.
• 0:13
  Speaker 3: The finest columnist in America, Michael Goodwin. You can read
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: his column in the New York Post every Sunday and
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: every Wednesday, or you just go to the New York
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: Plus website. All of his columns are up there. Michael Goodwin,
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: how you doing.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Mark, Thank you a.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: Great column about uh that Weasley Doctor Anthony Fauci. What
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: do you think his reputation is now?
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: I think it's shot. I think it's gonna be very hard.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: It's not impossible to recover the standing and almost unanimous
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: support that he had then, and also the trust to right,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: the trust and the medical opinions, and also the personality right.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: He had a kind of cult personality also, But as
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: we know now thanks to Rand Paul, the Senator from
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Kentucky taut.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: He had a double life. In his diary, he was saying.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Something very different from what he was saying publicly, and
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: he was His reputation for brilliant brilliance is shattered by
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: the fact that he was dumb enough to write his
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: diary on government computers, which is why it's now public
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: and he's not getting paid for that.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, he kept claiming to be a scientist.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: What kind of scientist thinks you can just hit the
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: lead and it's gone. It's still there on a service somewhere.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: And that's how the Justice Department was able to get it.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: RFK Jr. Went on the hunt for it and they
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: got it. And what kind of grown man keeps a
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: diary like that?
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: A man taken with himself.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: And I think that's the downfall of Anthony Bauci is
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: that this great tragedy of the pandemic that we should
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: never forget Mark took over more than one point one
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: million American lives. We know what it did to the
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: country as a whole, with businesses and students by going
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: to school, businesses closed, all kinds of lives changed forever
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: by the shutdowns. And here we are, still these years later,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: trying to figure out with some degree of certainty what
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: caused it. And that's what tripped Fauci up. He denied
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: that it was a lab leak, even though we know
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: now from his diary that he was far from certain
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: about that. He was honest in his diary and dishonest publicly.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: So, but you think anything will happen to talk to
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: the ball sorts of lawsuits? Florida Attorney general is going
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: to go after him, But do you think anything to
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: come of that? He'll just take the fifth everywhere, won't he?
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I guess.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: I mean, it'll be interesting to see if that pardon
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: was Joe Biden extended to him on Biden's a very
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: last day in office.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: And we know about the auto pen right.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: But you know the question is is there a state
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: law that would be not covered by the pardons? Would
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: there be some crime that Florida, for example, as you cited,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: could could follow a charge against him that would not
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: be blocked upon the federal pardon.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: So that remains to be seen.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: But just even that we're discussing that shows how far
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: the focus has moved from what it was not so
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: long ago.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, we're telling Michael Goodwin the left always, the Democrats,
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: they always build somebody up, they create some god that
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: they worship it, you know, Fauci or Cuomo. But they
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: they always pick the wrong people. Why don't they ever
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: learn their lessons?
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Well, because the only criteria for their choice is you
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: have to hate Donald Trump.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: You have to you have to be the anti Trump.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: And you know, Mark, that's why I.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Large this column to reflect the fact that what we
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: now know about Fuci because there's diaries, is another example
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: of how the media has failed America in these lasts,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: in this whole tromp era, go back to twenty sixteen
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: and twenty seventy. Here the Russian asset, right, the FDI,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: James call me, Barack Obamba, Susan Rice, the guys at
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: the CIA, all of them conspiring to help Hillary Clinton
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: win the election with the phony Russian Dosier, right, none
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: of it confirmed. So you have all these things, and
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: of course you have the Biden attempts to prosecute Trump
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: and all of that, and of course the fact that
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: there is no real media coverage of that that Biden
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: was calling the shots, telling the FDI and the Justice
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Department to charge Trump. So all of these things and
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: here we go. I mean, he continues until this very day.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Fauci was the anti Trump.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: He hero.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: And that's what the media has always seized on. Who
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: is the anti Trump tyro? It was Hillary Clinton, It
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: was Rock Obey as Joe Biden was Kamala Harris, you'd
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: look and look at this one person after another who
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: has exalted simples for being the anti Trump.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. Hey, the twenty fifth anniversary of nine
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: to eleven, Mom Donnie insists he will be there. What
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: is he thinking? Doesn't he realize the families will turn
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: their back on him? Why does he insist on being there?
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: You know, my I'm hoping he will have second thoughts
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: about that, because I think if it does go as
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: you're say, and I think that's likely, it will be
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: a kind of permanent stain on him, much as when
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: the police officers turn their backs on Bill de Blasio.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: I think he can argue that the Blasio.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Never recover from that, and it was a real division
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: between city Hall and the NYPD.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: And I think that for.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: The current mayor, I don't think he cares about what
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: his critics think or say. I think everything for him
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: is politics. He's going to be mayor a's in some
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: huge event. He's going to be mayor for during and
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: a half more years, and he's going to keep playing
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: to his base. And if he has to go down,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: to go down in flames trying to change New York
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: and make it a socialist, anti submitted, anti capitalism city.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so politics, what's his goal? Does he want to
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: be He can't be president unless they change the law.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Does he want to be the Senator? What is he
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: really up to long term?
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: That's a good question. I don't know. I don't know
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: that he knows.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know that he has a plan in that sense.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's so young, So I think of any
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: thirty year old, thirty four year old, I mean thinking
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: of herself or myself. I know, my life as it
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: was then is what it is now. I didn't foresee that.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: I didn't necessarily plan that. You kind of live and
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: you go on. I think he will discover more about
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: himself and hopefully at some point he will wise up
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: and realize that he has failed New York in fundamental ways.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't hold my breath on that one.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: No, I'm not.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: You got to give him credit. That's an amazing accomplishment
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: to get yourself elected mayor of New York at thirty
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: four and you've never held a job in your life.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: That is a pretty stunning thing to pull off, isn't it.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, whether it's a scam, what's a partially use.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: I mean then nepo baby. He's never had a job,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: as you say, never really worked, no experience, and yet
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: he had the kind of measmerized I called the pied
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: piper of the socialists, right that they all lined up
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: behind him, so many Democrats, so many young people.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: And when you look, I mean it's not just a fiction.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: When you look at the turnout in the mayor's race,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: I mean it firstly doubled what has been the norm
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: for a couple of decades. So more than two million
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: people voted, which hadn't happened from I think the first
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: David Dinkin's Rudy Giuliani election back in nineteen eighty nine.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: So it was quite a turnout, quite a seat in
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: that he was able to do that. He's clearly gained
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: momentum around the state and his movement, of which he is,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: as say, the pied Piper, is gaining ground around the country.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: And that's what so much about politics are dominated by
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: is plighting back against a socialist takeover.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: But you got to read Michael Goodwin's Calm. It's a
• 10:08
