Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload.
All right, news roundup and information overload hour.
Toll free, our number is 800-941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program, Wall Street Journal headline Science is closing in on COVID's origins.
Four studies, including two from well, the propaganda arm of China during COVID, uh, the WHO, which I don't think we should be funding or or even listening to ever.
Uh, but the piece goes on to provide powerful evidence favoring the lab leak theory.
Now, Dr. Ram Paul, Senator Rampall has highlighted for the country, uh, the exchange of emails in the earliest days of COVID uh between NIH members, and how they all knew pretty darn well that it was very likely that American taxpayer dollars uh were used and and funneled through the Eco Health Alliance uh to the Wuhan Virology Lab,
and and everyone was damn well aware that gain of function research took place there and coronavirus research took took place there.
There was testimony on Capitol Hill yesterday.
Uh, Dr. Stephen Quay, who will join us in a minute, testified that the Wuhan Institute took documented steps in March of 2019, consistent with actions taken after the lab acquired infection.
Listen to this.
Documented events at or related to Wuhan Institute of Virology beginning in March 2019 are consistent with the expected activities when a lab acquired infection has occurred.
This timelines include unusual attention from the Chinese Communist Party, uh, leading to the PLA physician soldier being put in charge, large tender requests to repair biosafety equipment, a virus database disappearing in the middle of the night, large tender requests for a lab security force to quote handle foreign personnel, end quote.
Patents for a device to prevent a lab acquired infection, rumors in the virology community of a new SARS virus in the lab.
30 vials of the three most dangerous viruses on the planet being shipped illegally from a lab in Canada to WIV in March, and then one of those pathogens being found as a major contaminant in a BLC lab in December.
These events taken together are a classic example of closing the barn door after the horses left.
Unbelievable.
Now, Dr. Quay further went on to talk about the COVID uh genome having eight features that are only found in a synthetic virus, meaning a lab virus, and are not found in natural viruses.
Now think all the times anybody talked about the lab league theory.
Uh they were dismissed as conspiracy theorists, and we were we were being told over and over again it's most likely from a wet market and exotic animals like bats.
Uh but here's his testimony from yesterday.
The genome of SARS-2 has eight features found in a synthetic virus that are not found in natural viruses.
The probability that SARS 2 came from nature based on these features is one in a billion.
These features are the backbone, the receptor binding domain, the furin cleavage site, the genetics of the Furin cleavage site, the number, location, and pattern of clothing's clothing cloning sites in SARS 2 that use the Barrick cloning method and the orphy gene.
Based on SARS 2 cloning sites, I predicted how SARS 2 could be made in the laboratory.
A year later, Barrick used the predicted steps to make an infectious clone of SARS 2.
These same features were described in a 2018 DARPA grant by WIV and U.S. scientists.
With respect to the grant, SARS 2 had the proposed backbone backbone from the proposed region in China, the proposed adaption to human killing, the proposed diversity from SARS 1, the proposed no CM cleavage site, number location, and pattern, the proposed human cleavage site at the proposed S1 S2 junction.
Now think of all the lies.
Think of what Dr. Ram Paul exposed in his book Deception, uh talking about this very issue.
Think about the email exchanges in the earliest days of COVID between top NIH officials, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, late into the night and and the likelihood that they knew that that in fact it was NIH funding uh that created this virus in this lab where they knew coronavirus research uh took place, gain of function research took place, and that American money went to this.
Think of the lies you were told.
Well, if you get the if you get the jab uh and you get the two jabs and uh you're not gonna get COVID and you're not gonna be able to transmit it to other people.
How true did that turn out to be?
Not at all.
Uh and add to that all the other lies, and and even though there's been studies, for example, that showed that, yeah, if you took HCQ, for example, didn't cure COVID, but it did take an early mitigate cis uh uh symptoms according to the Henry Ford Hospital and numerous other studies.
And and I saw that Dr. Fauci was attacking that again yesterday.
I'm like, uh well, do you ever read any scientific papers or studies on these things?
Because I'm not a scientist, but I do.
Anyway, frontline medical professionals, but the bottom line is is they knew it and they purposely kept it from us.
And I think that's the big takeaway of all this.
Anyway, uh Dr. Quay joins us now.
His first name is Stephen, Dr. Stephen Quay, he's a distinguished physician scientist, acclaimed author of Stay Safe, a Physician's Guide to Survive Coronavirus.
Um, you know, knowing what we know now and knowing that what they know that knew then, uh, I gotta be honest, Doctor.
I'm very angry.
I feel like I will never ever trust any uh any health official ever again.
Uh and then you have Dr. Uh Redfield, Robert Redfield, former CDC director, warning about a twenty-five to fifty percent mortality rate, if in fact is human trans human to human transmission of bird flu.
And I'm like, great, here we go.
And he says the next pandemic is right around the corner.
Um, so I I just don't trust them.
What what have you learned?
Well, Sean, it's great to be on here, and uh, I appreciate you playing some of my clips.
Look at the only gave me seven minutes.
I needed probably ten or eleven, and I I was racing, obviously.
But let me finish.
I uh at the risk of making you angrier, Sean.
Uh I want to finish the conclusion of what they kept from us and what would have happened if they had not kept it.
What they kept from us was that two clinical features of the virus were engineered into it.
Those are asymptomatic transmission, where you don't have a fever, you don't have sweats, and that sort of thing.
So that's number one, and rapid human to human transmission.
Every frontline doctor in the world who thought who was hearing about a new virus jumping from an animal in a market is going to think, okay, it's bad for that patient in the room I'm about to go into, but I'm not going to worry about human to human spread.
They knew that in January, and they didn't tell the frontline doctors.
Now, I believe 98% of the one million people who died in America should not have died.
And I get that number very specifically.
Taiwan, which has six percent of their population in China at any given day, so they're pretty alert to this sort of thing, started uh mitigations for asymptomatic transmission and human to human transfer in December 2019, and they had two percent of the deaths we did on a population adjusted basis.
So we have almost a million people who died because the people that knew this virus had these two properties did not tell the frontline doctors.
What would they have told them that would have made them different?
What that would have resulted in a different outcome.
Sean, they would have done what Taiwan did.
Very simple.
It's a very small inconvenience.
They would have boarded every plane from Wuhan.
Uh, They would have taken, you know, walked up and down the aisle with that, you know, a temperature that doesn't touch your forehead, take your temperature.
If you had a fever, you'd go into quarantine for two weeks, and then they would contact trace all the people on the airplanes.
That prevented it from going into Taiwan for all of 2020 that would have prevented it from going into the U.S. Remember when when when I mean and President Trump is not a doctor.
He has to depend on the people he who taught he talks to, and Dr. Fauci was one of those, but had he listened to someone who understood the f these facts like the Taiwanese doctors did, we could have we would have a million people, a million of our loved ones still alive.
I mean what you're telling me is frightening.
How telling was it that China understood what we were they were dealing with because uh and it got very interesting to me because if you lived in Wuhan province and you wanted to travel to any other part of China, you were not allowed.
However, if you were in Wuhan province and you wanted to travel anywhere else in the world, you were permitted to go.
And they they purposely allowed the spread of this.
They knew what was happening in Wuhan.
I know people what relatives in Wuhan that told me they all knew what was happening in Wuhan.
They knew people were dropping dead left and right, and yet they allowed these people to travel around the globe, but they wouldn't let them travel within China.
Yeah.
I got contacted by the State Department because I published a paper where I did this statistical analysis that which showed that the subway line next to the Wuhan Institute of Virology was the same line that went to the international airport.
And you can go all over the world in twelve hours before you have any symptoms from that airport.
And someone, you know, they called my secretary and they said, Hey, can you come in and help us?
Because this is really interesting information you have, and no one else has done this before.
It's pretty unbelievable what you've learned here.
Let me fast forward for a second, and then I'll go back to COVID, because the former CDC director, Redfield, said some very alarming things that I don't think many people are paying attention to.
Now, we've been watching these these incidents of of bird f flu or avian flu uh and animals dying around the country, and and we now see the transmission among one group of animals to another group of animals.
And what he said that really scared me is he predicts this will be the next big pandemic, and it'll be far worse than COVID.
And he predicted a mortality rate at twenty twenty-five to fifty percent of the population will likely die if human to human transmission happens.
And then he went on to describe that for human to human transmission to happen, there there need to be five amino acid receptors that that would allow for that to happen.
He says the problem is they've already identified what those amino uh acid receptors are, and I'm I'm probably not saying this as medically pure as as you would, so forgive me, I'm a layman.
And that they identified those back in 2012 in a lab, uh, which scares the living hell out of me.
So are we now facing is he telling us the truth or is he lying to us?
Sean, you have it exactly right.
I mean, you you're welcome to work in my lab anytime you want.
Um so what what he is saying is com he is combining two different things which haven't happened yet.
Um, but what he's saying is that the reason that the Obama administration shut down this kind of research in 2012 was because the scientists in in in the Netherlands and one in Wisconsin got the crazy idea of seeing if they could make this deadly virus tr airborne transmissible.
So if you if you got it by direct you know contact with animals, you'd get sick, but it wasn't airborne at that point in time.
And they and they showed that it was only four immunoases amino acids away from doing that.
The world freaked out, we shut down the scene of function research, but behind the scenes, Doctors Collins and and Fauci were working the working the system, working the system.
They wrote a three inches of paper, they dropped it on President Trump's desk in May of 2017 and saying, hey, we've we've got this under control.
We know how to do this gain of function research.
Please sign and then end this moratorium.
And they were going to do it with either president.
Um, and that's what started the process, May 2017, and then we had a coronavirus outbreak.
Well, let me ask you, is this where Fauci's comment uh that he made in twenty twelve uh comes into play?
Because if you recall, he said in twenty twelve that he supported gain of function research, even if it resulted in a worldwide pandemic, which I find uh you know spectacularly ignorant and dangerous.
Sean, your your listeners need to realize that what you said is exactly true, it's slightly worse than that.
So the head of all of NIH, Dr. Collins, the hen of the head of all of the infectious disease group, Dr. Fauci wrote a joint opinion basically saying, even if we have a pandemic, this research is worth it.
I walked in, I don't do this kind of research, but I walked into it about three years ago and I looked at three hundred papers in this field, and I can say categorically, there is no medically useful advances come out of this gain of function research.
None.
You know, mutated viruses in a lab that end up killing people.
Do you believe that Dr. uh or Robert Redfield is correct that if in fact those uh if in fact is human to human transmission of bird flu in our future, that it could result in twenty-five to fifty percent of our population dying?
And do you believe we're close to another pandemic?
Well, I I hope we're not close, but uh, but he is exactly right, he's a very good virologist.
So I've done a study to say if we look at four essential things in in society, so so that is uh uh energy transportation.
So how do we get our gasoline?
How do we get our energy?
Food transportation, how do we get food to the grocery stores?
Police and fire, how do we keep people you know chaos away and medical?
So you look at those four, and you say what percent of the people there that stay home from work.
How many people in each of those four together have to stay home from work or be killed by a by a virus to shut down our culture?
And it's fifteen percent by all the all the math exercises I can do.
All right, quick break.
We'll come back more with uh Dr. Stephen Quay testified before Congress yesterday, and his op-ed in the Wall Street Journal Science closes in on COVID's origins.
In other words, we've been lied to.
We'll have more on the other side as we continue.
Hey there, I'm Mary Catherine Hammond.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started normally a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass.
You're our kind of people.

Sir Dell, verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
All right, I have a quick question or two for Dr. Stephen Quay.
He's testified before Congress yesterday.
Uh he wrote the book Stay Safe, a physician's guide to survive coronavirus.
Uh, and his testimony yesterday featured in large part how science has now closed in on COVID's origins, and yeah, the Wuhan Virology Lab looks like the culprit.
Gee, what a shocker.
But we continue with Dr. Stephen Quay.
What's the average person supposed to take away from this?
I mean, I can't tell you how many people that ended up getting the the jab and taking the shot, even though again uh at the time it was experimental.
I mean, it was emergency authorization uh use of of these vaccines.
Uh I've interviewed Dr. Robert Malone, who created the the technology so that MRNA viruses uh MRNA vaccines could even be created, and he felt he was very clear that the technology had not been perfected.
And he said, with that said, uh considering the the death rate for older people, people with comorbidities and pre-existing conditions, he would support it for older people or people with comorbidities only, not for not for young kids the way they ended up using it by the end.
That's one hundred percent consistent with data that began to emerge in February 2020, where an eighty-four thousand patient study in China showed nobody under 20 died, nobody under 30 got seriously sick, and and you the death didn't start until 50 to 60, and as you say, Sean, it's exactly comorbidity.
So you got cancer, you've got heart disease, yes.
And then above 70 and and above was where all of the deaths were.
And we should have treated it accordingly, instead of this one size fits all for the whole country.
I w again, my my after action analysis was that SARS-CoV-2 was different at the county level, and we have a county level health system.
So we should have treated it that way.
We we were shutting down shutting down half of Kansas when there were no cases because the Acello line up and down New York was full of cases.
Bottom line is don't ever trust the government on issues of involving health.
That's my takeaway.
Sad, but it's it's my takeaway.
I think we were lied to on a very high level.
Uh anyway, Dr. Quay, we appreciate you being with us, my friend.
Thank you.
Thank you, Sean.
Take care.
800-941-SEAN.
If you want to be a part of the program, Let's say hi to Matt is in Michigan.
Boy, Michigan's an important state.
Uh, in what, a hundred and thirty-eight days.
How are you, uh, Matt?
Glad you called.
Thank you.
Thank you for taking my call.
Not only that, it's about a hundred and thirty-eight degrees too right now.
Like uh, which is strange for Michigan.
Um I was uh I've tried reading up over, you know, as much as I could on security clearances and that, and I can't seem to find out who has the authority to strip uh security clearances.
Like if let's say Trump takes over, which he's gonna win.
Will he have the ability to strip those fifty-one people that sign that document, strip them of all their security clearances?
You know, you would think that the fact that every one of those fifty-one former Intel officials, and I believe you're correct in in your analysis that they do have security clearance to some level.
Uh I would think the fact that they, without any information at all, without any examination of the laptop in question, that they would go forward and tell the American people with such certainty in a unified voice, something that turns out to be completely false and not true in the lead up to an election, because Tony Wink and Blinken organized them to do so in unison.
Uh, if that's not election interference, I don't know what is.
And I think that that should be disqualifying in terms of a security clearance and frankly much more.
I mean if if you're going to create such a deception to the American people and uproot an al a a presidential election that w that way and try and impact it with a lie that way, I think there should be some consequences for that.
It's my own personal view.
Yeah, well mine too, but um I the the thing that I keep running into is they don't clarify.
As long as they're part of the government in some capacity, I guess they could be could work for Northrop or something like that, that they have security clearance.
And I I just I've been trying to find out whether Trump will be able to do that on day one, strip him of it.
I think that the odds would probably be pretty high.
I mean there was a big article that came out how the left is preparing to stop Donald Trump and use the courts and and sue the administration and stop the entire Trump agenda.
They're just going to try and harass him out of the box from day one, but I don't think it's going to stop him.
You might recall he had a hard time getting the monies that would be necessary to build the border wall and and he figured out a way to get around it and do it and do it legally and lo and behold his his policies were effective.
And I think that's why you know I'm looking at some of these polls and I see there's a disparity between how President Trump is doing versus how how some of these Senate and congressional races are going.
And my strong advice to anybody is is don't send Donald Trump there alone.
Elect as many Republicans in the House as possible.
Give him the biggest majority you can in the Senate so that we could actually turn things around and we can get rid of defund, dismantle no bail laws.
We can go back to the state of Mexico policy.
He can finish the wall I mean there's so much that needs to be done immigration wise.
He was talking yesterday about building you know an iron dome the likes of which this country and the world have never seen before to protect us against any future threats of of any hostile regime.
I think it's smart.
Uh he's been also been talking about restoring law and order and and fixing Biden inflation and also restoring America's place in the world which is to be the the leader of the free world and the leader in the cause for liberty and freedom around the world without getting you know caught up in the quagmire of every foreign conflict and I and he'll he supports Israel's right to win their own war against radical Islamic terrorism.
You know he believes that there can be you know a better way than America fighting a proxy war against Russia and Putin the way that Joe Biden has been doing it with hundreds of billions of dollars.
And I agree with him on all of these issues.
So I think there's a lot that he can do.
I hope that answers your question.
What's up Susan?
How are you?
W I O D, what's going on?
Hi Sean, welcome to Florida.
I love being in Florida.
It's my new home.
How are you?
I'm okay.
Uh I listen I wanted to talk to you about how the media because Trump certainly can't do it and either can his attorneys anymore with the gag order and the newest ruling you know denying him to be able to speak with this appellate court is outrageous.
But anyway, they can't you know they can't help themselves in other words so media has the only one that's going to have to be able to come to their rescue and that is how can we bring some truthful evidence forward that didn't come out at the trial.
You know, some of these witnesses that were not heard uh Castellano got hurt but he got cut off where Costello have it.
I mean look we've got a debate just coming up in eight short days.
We got to focus on that first then there'll be the July 11th sentencing and it's going to be what it's going to be.
We have a abusively biased and prejudiced judge and a prosecutor I mean you have a a first time offender, a class E felony, and it's going to be appealed and you know but would this judge be capable of putting him in jail?
I think he probably would be my guess is he'll sentence him to jail pending you know an appeal.
I do believe that these convictions will be overturned on appeal, but it's a shame that a case like this could ever be brought in a country like ours.
It's all it's awful.
Well I mean that that that's going to take too long entirely, you know.
In the meantime, I mean, uh, can't we uh do something, you know, to bring some of the truth to light that the trial did not show.
The media can't we have a panel on of some of these witnesses that were supposed to be witnesses that were good for Trump that never got to be heard.
No, I mean Bob Costello's been all over Fox News.
Uh I had on the former FEC chair that was supposed to testify in the case, but the testimony was going to be so limited by this judge that you know it became pointless.
We've already had him on, and he said no laws were broken.
So, I mean, we we try to we've been trying to do all of that.
I I just think that the fact that the left and the media mob can we what?
Yeah.
Can we continue to have them on, you know, like sort of like we you know all of that has been forgotten about dropped.
Meantime, Biden is spending fifty million dollars, you know, plastering all over the media that Trump is a convicted criminal.
You know, and I I I'm not worried about this case having that big an impact or any impact at all on Donald Trump.
I'm just not.
I think I think the American people and the polls bear this out, see this for what it is.
That this this was a sham trial, you know, an eight-year-old case, a simple nondisclosure agreement which is legal, uh, that was labeled the legal expense and not even deducted from their taxes.
It's a sh it's a shame.
I mean, but this is what the weaponization of justice in America is.
This is what a dual justice system looks like.
This is what lawfare is.
This is what Democrats have resorted to.
They can't run on are you better off than you were four years ago.
And they certainly don't like it if you dare to point out the obvious truth that that Joe Biden is not strong enough.
He's weak and frail in a cognitive mess and cannot do the job as president.
So this is what they're stuck with.
And I think these other cases we'll find out very soon on whether on the immunity decision of the Supreme Court and what impact that has, that may actually, you know, that that may destroy the the Washington DC case.
The Fonnie Willis case is falling apart, and the case down in Florida is falling apart.
Is maybe the only one left, and I am confident on appeal.
I think Donald Trump, you you're going to see a reversal.
And and hopefully Americans I hopefully Americans will see what we see and they'll go out and vote for him.
And early voting begins in Pennsylvania in 89 days.
Pay attention.
Anyway, I gotta run, Susan.
I appreciate you being out there and appreciate your call.
Thank you.
800-941 Sean, New Jersey.
Tom next, Sean Hannity Show.
Hi.
How are you doing, Sean?
Uh, thanks for taking my call.
Uh the reason I'm calling is uh I I just I just can't understand why Trump is hated so much.
Uh I was listening to uh WOR yesterday morning, and uh Joe Concha had called into the uh the morning's uh radio show, and they were discussing Trump, and all of a sudden uh it was uh Len uh got so upset he was incensed.
And no matter what Joe uh came back and countered countered off, you know, countered answered uh what Lynn was saying, uh it just it just got so heated.
Uh I don't understand that.
I really don't.
Well, the good news is is Joe Concha's more than capable of handling himself.
Uh number two, poor Len Berman.
I don't know.
I mean, he slams pretty solidly left.
He's a nice person in real life, uh, but then you got Mark Simone to to kind of counter everything that maybe Len says in the morning right afterwards.
So you're getting a variety of opinions there, okay.
Well, you do, you do.
I mean, uh when I come across it myself and in my personal life, I I I choose not to argue because I I just don't feel like getting aggravated about it.
I really don't.
And uh, you know, I uh I'm sorry that these people are not uh not as informed as as they should be.
And and I, you know, uh just can't just remember listen, there are some people that just hate Trump, it's psychotic.
Uh you know, now they're taking it uh he's gonna put us in camps and in prisons and and take away our TV shows and silence us.
And I mean, they're just unhinged.
You can't have a real conversation with those people.
You just can't.
And if you think you're gonna convince them to change their mind, you know, don't waste your breath.
However, there are many Americans that will have an open mind.
You know, since the terror attacks on October the 7th, anti-Semitism.
Look, look what's happening in the halls of Congress, college campuses around the country.
It's awful.
But it's Europe as well.
It's also places like Australia.
That's gonna wrap things up for today.
Busy Hannity tonight.
Please set your DVR Monday through Friday, 9 Eastern on the Fox News Channel.
Never ever, ever miss an episode.
We appreciate your watching.
Anyway, we'll check in with Dr. Ronnie Jackson, Senator Tim Scott, Victor Davis Hanson, Michael Waltz, Horace Cooper, Larry Cudlow, and Joe Concha.
