NOW, BACK IN MAY OF 2020, JUST A FEW MONTHS INTO THE PANDEMIC, THE U.N. HIGH COMMISSIONER OF HUMAN RIGHTS DELIVERED WHAT WAS ACTUALLY A SURPRISING WARNING. >> WHEN WE TALK ABOUT HUMAN RIGHTS, BECAUSE OF A NEED LIKE A NATURAL CAUSE OR A PANDEMIC LIKE THIS ONE, IT HAS TO BE, FIRST OF
ALL, A CLEAR NEED. IT HAS TO BE PROPORTIONATE TO THE NEED AND IT HAS TO HAVE A TIME. IT CANNOT BE FOREVER. WE HAVE SEEN THAT SOME GOVERNMENTS ARE USING THIS TO GOVERNMENTS ARE USING THIS TO MAKE EVEN MORE SHRINK OF THEIR CIVIC SPACE. >> Laura: THREE YEARS LATER, WITH FREEDOM CONVOYS INSPIRING
MILLIONS, OFFICIALS WHO THOUGHT THEY WOULD NEVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE ARE GROWING MORE DESPERATE. >> THE EMERGENCIES ACT WILL BE USED TO STRENGTH THEN AND SUPPORT LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AT ALL LEVELS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THIS IS ABOUT KEEPING CANADIANS SAFE. THESE TOOLS INCLUDE STRENGTHENING THEIR ABILITY TO IMPOSE FINES OR IMPRISONMENT,
FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS WILL BE AUTHORIZED OR DIRECTED TO RENDER ESSENTIAL SERVICES TO HELP ADDRESS THE SITUATION BY REGULATING AND PROHIBITING THE USE OF PROPERTY TO FUND OR SUPPORT ILLEGAL BLOCKADES. >> Laura: WHAT WOULD A SOFT, PRETTY MAN EVER KNOW ABOUT KEEPING ANYONE SAFE? NOT MUCH. WEAK AND INEFFECTIVE LEADERS DON’T CHANGE COURSE WHEN THEY
DON’T SUCCEED. THIS WAS NEVER ABOUT THE VIRUS. IT WAS ABOUT CREATING A COMPLIANT PUBLIC. A COMPLIANT PUBLIC THAT WAS KIND OF PRIMED TO OBEY THE NEXT LOCKDOWN ORDER, NO QUESTIONS ASKED. THE ASSAULT ON OUR BASIC LIBERTIES HAVE BEEN WIDE DISH-RANGING, SCHOOL CLOSURES DENIED CHILDREN QUALITY EDUCATION. THAT WAS THE FREEDOM TO LEARN.
VAX AND MASK MANDATES DEPRIVED US OF OUR FREEDOM TO DECIDE WHAT WE PUT INTO OUR OWN BODY. STAY-AT-HOME ORDERS DESTROYED SMALL BUSINESSES WHILE LARGE CORPORATION CORPORATIONS THRIVED. THAT WAS OUR FREEDOM TO WORK. BIG TECH CENSORSHIP, YOUTUBE, TWITTER, FACEBOOK, ACTED AS PROXY FOR THE GOVERNMENT, OUR FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION.
ANYONE THAT DIDN’T TO YOU THE FAUCI LINE, EVEN TREATED PHYSICIANS AND RENOWN RESEARCHERS WERE THREATENED, MALIGNED AND SOME LOST JOBS CALLING SOMETHING COVID MISINFORMATION, GAVE THE GOVERNMENT CARTE BLANCHE TO TRAMPLE ON FREE IMPRESSION. WHO WILL EVER FORGET HOW DEMOCRAT GOVERNORS LET YOU SHOP TOGETHER BUT NOT PRAY TOGETHER? CHURCHES SHUTTERED, OUR FREEDOM
TO WORSHIP HALTED. THE EXPERTS NEVER THOUGHT THAT FAITH WAS ESSENTIAL BUT SOMEHOW THEY DEEMED THAT LIQUOR STORES WERE. SO THIS ANTI-FREEDOM COALITION ON THE LEFT EVEN DEPLOYED INTIMIDATION SQUADS AND CORPORATE AND SCHOOL SETTINGS WITH THE GOAL OF SILENCING EMPLOYEES AND PARENTS WHO SPOKE OUT. NOW, TAKE THIS FASCINATING CASE OF JENNIFER SAY.
SHE WAS AN ELIZABETH WARREN SUPPORTER FROM THE BAY AREA WHO WAS FORCED OUT OF HER HIGH-PROFILE JOB MERELY FOR SPEAKING OUT AGAINST SCHOOL CLOSURES AND LOCKDOWNS. SHE THEN, PRESIDENT OF LEVI STRAUS, FELT PASSIONATELY ABOUT THE NEED FOR IN-PERSON SCHOOLING. SHE WROTE, I KEPT CALLING OUT HYPOCRITICAL AND UNPROVEN POLICIES, MET WITH THE MAYOR’S
OFFICE AND UPROOTED MY ENTIRE LIFE IN CALIFORNIA SO THAT MY KINDERGARTNER COULD FINALLY EXPERIENCE REAL SCHOOL. JENNIFER IN MARCH OF 2021, APPEARED ON THE ANGLE. >> I HAVE GOT TO TAKE CARE OF MY KID. I WANT TO HELP ALL KIDS. I REALIZE I’M VERY LUCKY THAT I CAN PICK UP AND COME HERE.
I KNOW NOT EVERYONE HAS THAT OPPORTUNITY. I WILL TELL YOU, YOU KNOW, FAMILIES I KNOW ARE SCRAPING TOGETHER EVERYTHING THEY HAVE TO EITHER GO TO PRIVATE OR MOVE TO A DISTRICT OR A STATE THAT’S OPEN. AT THE END OF THE DAY, OUR KIDS NEED TO BE IN SCHOOL.
>> Laura: SHE IS A LIBERAL. I’M A CONSERVEATIVECONSERVATIVE. HER COMMENTS WERE ENTIRELY REASONABLE. THEN SHE WRITES, THAT APPEARANCE ON THIS SHOW WAS THE LAST STRAW. THE HEAD OF DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION AT COMPANY ASKED THAT I DO AN APOLOGY TOUR. I WAS TOLD THAT THE MAIN COMPLAINT AGAINST ME WAS THAT I
WAS NOT A FRIEND OF THE BLACK COMMUNITY AT LEVIS. I WAS TOLD TO SAY THAT I AM AN IMPERFECT ALLY. WELL, THEN, SHE SAID SHE REFUSED TO DO ANY OF THAT. THIS WOMAN WAS ON TRACK TO BE THE CEO OF A MAJOR COMPANY, A LIBERAL WITH BIRACIAL CHILDREN CANCELED BY THE CORPORATE MOB.
THINK ABOUT THAT? THE LEFT IS SO FREAKED OUT NOW BECAUSE THEIR COVID FORTRESS OF RULES AND EDICTS IS COLLAPSING BEFORE THEY HAD THE CHANCE TO MAKE THEIR NEW NORMAL PERMANENT. THEY ARE SO FRANTIC THEY ARE TRYING TO STIGMATIZE THE WORD FREEDOM. IN OTHER WORDS, YOUR FREEDOM KILLS PEOPLE EVEN WHEN THEY ARE VACCINATED.
>> I LOVE HOW PEOPLE TALK ABOUT PERSONAL FREEDOM. IF YOU ARE EXERCISING PERSONAL FREEDOM — FREEDOM, PUT SOMEONE ELSE IN JEOPARDY, THEIR HEALTH IN JEOPARDY, I DON’T CONSIDER THAT DEALING WITH FREEDOM. >> Laura: THE MOCKING OF FREEDOM HAS BEEN A THING OF BIDEN’S FOR A WHILE NOW. >> TWO THINGS THAT CONCERN ME,
ONE ARE THOSE THAT JUST TRY TO MAKE THIS A POLITICAL ISSUE. FREEDOM, I HAVE THE FREEDOM TO KILL YOU WITH MY COVID. COME ON. FREEDOM. >> Laura: NEVER HEARD A PRESIDENT, NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD HEAR A PRESIDENT SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT. THE MEDIA PICKS IT UP AND THEN
REPEATS IT WITH THEIR OWN LAME FLOORISH. NOW, THE MESSAGE IS TO BE AFRAID OF THOSE WHO WANT FREEDOM. >> YOU HAVE SEEN IN CANDIDATES OTHERS ARE FEARFUL OF THESE PROTESTERS ARGUING FOR FREEDOM. >> IT IS ANTI-GOVERNMENT WRAPPED IN THIS NOTION OF FREEDOM, WHATEVER IT MEANS FOR THESE INDIVIDUALS.
>> Laura: FREEDOM FOR THE REST OF YOU TO DO AND SPEAK YOUR MINDS, NO, THEY DON’T WANT THAT. HERE IS THE WAY THE PRAGUES AT THE CDC DESCRIBE THE WORD. IT IS MALLEABLE AND A TERM THAT THRIVES AMONG FAR RIGHT GROUPS. NO MATTER THE RUBBISH THEY SAY OR PUBLISH ABOUT IN FREEDOM
QUEST SPREADING ACROSS THE GLOBE NOW, THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT THE POWERFUL DID THESE PAST TWO YEARS IS COMING TO THE FORE. IT CAN’T BE THAT WE LIVE IN A COUNTRY WHERE FREEDOM ONLY EXISTS FOR THE CONNECTED AND WEALTHY WHO CAN GO MASKLESS AT THE SUPER BOWL AS THIRD GRADERS
SWEAT IT OUT IN N-95 MASKS AND CLASS IN L.A. THEY WILL ALWAYS FEEL JUSTIFIED WHEN THEY TAKE AWAY YOUR FREEDOM OR WHEN THEY SKIRT THE WORDS. IT IS GOING TO BE THE ROADS ARE DANGEROUS, THE CLIMATES ARE WARMING, THE VARIANTS ARE COMING. ALMOST SIX YEARS AGO, IT WAS THAT TRUMP WAS RUNNING.
THEY HAD TO STOP HIM. RULES BE DAMMED. THE LEFT DIDN’T THINK TWICE WHEN THEY LOCKED THE CHILDREN OUT OF SCHOOLS. THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN DIDN’T THINK TWICE WHEN THEY DEPLOYED INTERNET SPIES IN AN EFFORT TO DESTROY TRUMP AND NULLIFY YOUR VOTE. EVEN THOUGH THE ENDS FOR THEM ALWAYS JUSTIFY THE MEANS, WE
KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON. THE PRESS, THEY CAN TOO. THEY DIDN’T COVER THE STORIES THAT MATTERED. THEY COVERED THEM UP. HERE IS THE GOOD NEWS.
