What this episode covers

Transcript Charlie James: So, we got that list of senators that I—I, uh, read to you not long ago, um, that are staying in Washington to vote for the SAVE America Act. I know there's another thing that those 20 senators need to do. I'll tell you about that coming up in just a second. Let's go to, uh, Clinton. And, uh, I'm sorry, who is this? Clinton: Uh, this, um... well, it's Clinton calling. Charlie James: Okay, Clinton caller. Welcome, welcome, welcome. What's up? Clinton: Yes, sir. Uh, I just wanted to let you know, uh, when, uh, that COVID thing first come out, and everything like that... uh, it hadn't jumped across the sea yet, and all we hear—heard of it on the news and things like that, you know. And, uh, I told the guys around me, I says, uh, "There's something coming here bad. It's coming bad. It's orchestrated. It's, uh, it's man-made." I says, uh, "Don't believe anything, uh, what, uh, the media, the news, and everybody, and all these people's going to tell you." I says, uh, "Buckle down and get ready." And they's like, "Ah, come on, man," you know. Uh, I said, "Okay, get ready." Charlie James: Yeah. Clinton: So, uh... well, it did jump, and it came here. And it's devastating and stuff. Uh, the—the—the most devastating thing of it was the vaccine and things like that. Charlie James: Yeah. Clinton: Well, my organization I work with, uh, they, um, offered a day off of work and, uh, $100 if you get vaccinated. Charlie James: Wow. Clinton: Yeah. I told everybody, I said, "Do not do it." I said, "Do not do it." And, uh, most of them didn't. Some of them did. But, uh, then under the... ah, what you call it, uh, awning, uh, where everybody meets up, like around the picnic table, you know, at the end of the day and stuff, and all, my supervisor, he, uh, has the, uh... well, audacity, or whatever you would say, to, uh, turn to me and, uh, tell me by name, "Uh, up there in the municipal, they want to know your vaccine status." I said, "Oh, really?" Charlie James: Yeah. Clinton: And so, all eyes is on me. And, uh, I said, "I'll tell you what." I said, "When they tell me their STD status, on all of them, I'll tell them my status on vaccine." Charlie James: Good for you! Good for you. All right... there you go, Clinton caller, I appreciate it. But here's—I mean, here was the thing, though. I mean, I thought there were HIPAA laws. I—I thought you couldn't talk about anybody's medical condition. I thought, "Oh, no, but this is COVID. This is special. This is different." No, no, no, everything—no, no, no, no. HIPAA laws didn't matter. Could you—could you imagine? I mean, I've—I'll just never forget the Peace Center when they wanted everybody to have their little vaccine passport. Remember that? And I was thinking, "Man, what if... could you do that with AIDS? Could you do that with AIDS? Could you have an AIDS passport?" And, "Uh, I don't know, let's see your card there. Oh, oh, oh, oh! Looks like you got AIDS, can't come in to this show. Sorry." You keep—you couldn't do that with anything else. Do you have cancer? "Uh, sorry." Nothing! But by golly, you could ask about your vaccine status. That was just another one of those civil liberties that we gave up during COVID. Well, now, guess what's happening over in China. COVID—China's COVID-19 positivity rate has exceeded 20% for the first time this year, which experts will say will likely lead to a high epidemic level. Meanwhile, Chinese doctors and residents posted on social media and told The Epoch Times that hospitals have been packed with patients, creating a shortage of medicine for COVID-19. The test positivity rate for COVID-19 continued to rise, um, July 20th through the 26th, uh, according to the latest national sentinel surveillance data of acute respiratory infectious diseases released by the Chinese. The rate reached 20.3% in respiratory samples from patients with influenza-like illness at sentinel hospitals nationwide. Oh, it's going to go to another e ...
