What this episode covers

Transcript Audience / Choir: I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Singer: O beautiful for spacious skies, for amber waves of grain, for purple mountain majesties above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed His grace on thee, and crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea! Donald Trump (Audio Clip): America is back! Charlie James: Yes, sir! And we are back. Let's go to Dave in Spartanburg. Dave, welcome. How are you, sir? Dave: Well, I'm doing great, Charlie. Hope you are. Get to start off the 4 o'clock hour a little breaking news, and I hope you're sitting down 'cause you ain't going to believe this. Charlie James: Uh, what's going on, Dave? Dave: So, fresh off The Epoch Times—Epoch Times, not sure how you pronounce it, they're pretty reliable though. Guess what? The timing on this is just too perfect. It's just too perfect. Guess what's coming out of China? They now have pandemic levels of COVID-19 going on in China. How about them apples? How about them apples? How about—is the timing not perfect? Fauci's, you know, going to knock Fauci off the list. Hey, I got to run out and go get some toilet paper and hand sanitizer real quick, 'cause if you listen close... Charlie James: Oh my gosh, yeah. Dave: If you listen close, you can hear the spin machines cranking right now. Oh, oh, the fearmongers are going to love this! But yep, COVID-level pandemic in China. How about that? Charlie James: Ah, that's wonderful, Dave. Dave: Well, they don't even bother to change the playbook, you know? It worked once, hey, let's do it again. Charlie James: Exactly right. I get it, buddy. Thank you, Dave. I appreciate it, buddy. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. Yep, there—oh, what, do they want to do it again? Want to do it again. Well, there you go. Well, speaking of that, what did Dr. Fauci do? What were all these people doing? They were telling you, don't take Ivermectin. Do not take Ivermectin. Oh no, it's horse dewormer! Oh, it's horse paste! Oh, well now we know that Ivermectin, in fact—Senator Ron Johnson at that meeting or that hearing with Dr. Fauci, he held up just hundreds of pages of studies showing the efficacy of Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine in treating people with COVID. It was a bunch of studies. A bunch of them. So, there was a plan here in South Carolina. And it was a good one. Why don't we let Ivermectin here in South Carolina be sold over the counter? Well, that's a brilliant idea. I mean, this is a Nobel Peace Prize-winning drug. It is on the World Health Organization's list of necessary drugs—essential drugs is what they call it. It has almost—you would have to literally take like, you know, handfulls and handfulls of Ivermectin to have any sort of bad reaction to it. So there was a plan to make it be, you know, have it over the counter here in South Carolina. It passed the House almost unanimously. It passed the Senate almost unanimously. So then it had to go back to the House. And Davey Hyatt—Davey Hyatt motioned to send that bill to the Agricultural Committee. And that motion passed. Now remember, it wasn't just Davey Hyatt doing it, it was other members of the RINO Caucus voting to send this bill back to the Ag Committee, and now it's dead. Well, now there's been an ethics complaint filed over that Ivermectin bill. And what they're saying is—and I want to thank Preston Baines for this over at SC Confidential—listen to this: Central to the complaint is that Hyatt should have recused himself from discussion, motions, and voting on the legislation due to—are you ready for this?—Davey Hyatt's son working as a lobbyist for who?
