On Monday’s Mark Levin Show, Retired Science Editor at The New York Times Nicholas Wade questioned how much Dr. Anthony Fauci knew about the Coronavirus in an interview with Mark Levin on the Fox News Channel. Wade outlined the case that it was not likely that the coronavirus was transferred from animals to humans. The bats at the wet market was a cover-up promoted by the Chinese Communist Party and the media was too happy to blame President Trump to even look into it. Conversely, currently available scientific information supports the hypothesis that the virus leaked from a lab at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. What will the Biden Administration do anything about China’s role in the virus? Jen Psaki says there is no underlying data available to take any action. The White House will rely on the World Health Organization. Serious economic pressure must be out on the Chinese government and Fauci and the US must also get to the bottom of who signed off on third-party funding. Later, not a single mosque was attacked in the United States amidst the Hamas attacks on Israel but several synagogues and Jews across America have been terrorized for publicly gathering to support Israel. Similarly, leftists that embrace Critical Race Theory continue attacking the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s concept of a color-blind society. Finally, Governor Ron DeSantis discusses his legislation against Big Tech censorship. If Big Tech censors enforce rules inconsistently and discriminate in favor of the dominant Silicon Valley ideology, they will be held accountable in Florida.

Rough transcript of Hour 1
Hour 1 Segment 1
I hope you were able to watch my show last night on Fox Life, Liberty and Levin with a very important guest, Nicholas Wade. Now, Nicholas Wade is a retired New York Times science editor and he’s written for Nature and Science magazines. And he’s 79 years old. He’s retired. About a year ago, he was very troubled by the reporting that was taking place on the coronavirus. And the source of the coronavirus is not a political person. He didn’t have any ideological issues. And he decided to look at it, and for a year, that’s exactly what he did. And this interview last night, which consisted mostly of me asking some questions and Mr. Wade responding a long form interview, the only one on cable. A tremendous amount of information was, in fact, elicited. For Mr. Wade, who’s been around a while. Much of that information is being regurgitated today, including on cable and including on talk radio without a.. Any. Indication of where that information came from. Came from Mr. Wade in the interview Sunday night, came from Mr. Wade’s article that he wrote. I guess two and a half weeks ago. That’s being plumb through and being used and being regurgitated without any respect for his scholarship. Or for our Sunday show. And I’m not even talking about the left wing media, I’m talking about all the media. It’s a disgrace. I found one one. Linked to a publication that my daughter sent me. The Daily Mail. The Daily Mail wrote up the interview. The Daily Mail explained what Nicholas Wade had to say, the retired New York Times science editor, Ed, not just journalist. And some of the information that he provided, the information he provided, which is being regurgitated today. Was critical. Critical. And raises very, very serious questions. About what Anthony Fauci knew, if anything, and if he didn’t know what was going on in his own agency, why didn’t he? He denied. He denied to Rand Paul, Senator Paul, that his agency had funded. This this kind of research that actually takes a virus and makes the virus lethal to human beings. In order to see if they can come up with a solution to it. There’s been a moratorium on this kind of science investigation. And what we also learned last night. Is that despite the moratorium, there was a funding project. From Mr. Falsies Agency to a third party group in New York. And that third party group in New York. Gave a grant to the Wuhan lab that was conducting these investigations, this this scientific inquiry. Now, that’s a big deal. That’s a very big deal. Because the man who runs that third party organization was the one who organized a letter in February. Gathering other scientists and their signatures saying there is no way. That this virus could have been created or leaked from the lab. That, in fact. It was due to natural circumstances, meaning animals to humans. He didn’t have any evidence whatsoever to prove that. Moreover, today, there is no evidence whatsoever to prove that none. And there was a second individual, another so-called scientist by the name of Anderson, who did exactly the same thing a few weeks later, and it is those two letters that CNN and The Washington Post, The New York Times, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS and all the rest. And all the rest used. As their scientific basis for advancing the idea that claim as a fact. This came from bats to human beings or some animal to human beings. This was the communist Chinese propaganda machine. This is what they were pushing. A very few individuals raise concerns that it might have been leaked from the lab, Tom Cotton being one of them. A couple of scientists said we might want to look into that they were immediately silenced. Or attack. This is the greatest health disaster. In modern human history. And the media in America had no interest, no curiosity whatsoever to find out what really took place. Why? Because they wanted to blame Trump for the deaths and they wanted to protect communist China. And they did both. And so did the Democrat Party and so did Joe Biden. We also learn from Mr. Wade on Sunday. That’s the level of safety and security at this lab in China. Was that a great too great for being the highest grade one being the lowest grade to. Which is equivalent to the kind of protection a dentist has when he’s drilling a cavity out of your tooth. In other words, virtually nonexistent. Now, I taped this interview on Wednesday. Given Mr. Wade’s availability, which was limited. And my own conflicts, I don’t normally tape the show on a Wednesday. That weekend, this weekend, we also learned from The Wall Street Journal. That staffers in the Wuhan lab got very ill. And nobody seems to know what from. Well, I think we do know what from. There are many, many questions here, many. The State Department inspector general’s office had great concerns last year, actually the year before last. About the safety standards that were in place at the Wuhan. The communist Chinese regime under she will not release any data or not make any scientists available for any interviews. It’s a massive cover up. President Trump early on said that he believed. That the virus was leaked out of that lab for which he was viciously attacked. And yet I believe he was 100 percent correct. Mr. Wade makes clear. Now, we don’t have definitive evidence to prove that. But the information we do have strongly suggests that it wasn’t a natural happenstance, but more of a lab leak. In fact, there’s no information to support the former and there’s a lot of information to support the latter. Why did Anthony Fauci lie? During his Senate testimony about the funding. The funding of this project. Well, here’s where Mr. Wade went a little squishy. He said, well, maybe it was semantics. Maybe the virologists, they have a committee that reviewed it, had a different idea and so forth and so on. Well, let’s get to the bottom of this. As somebody who worked as a chief of staff to attorney general, I can tell you there are sign-off requirements when you’re putting out grants and so forth. Who signed off on the grand? Here’s what is also very, very crucial to understand. There was a moratorium on this kind of scientific research, as I already told you. As Mr. Wade told us, that is the first person to reveal this. That was a big bit of information on Sunday. And the only way. That you can actually continue with research on this, with the support of forces, infectious disease office or the National Institutes of of Health. It’s if Mr. Dr. Collins, the head of the NIH, or Mr. Fauci, that head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, had actually signed off, personally, signed off on. In all the interviews. That Anthony family has been involved in. There has been no interest in questioning him about any of this. And now. Now, he says it’s not at all clear that this was a natural occurrence, so we need to investigate this and find out what took place. Now, the U.S. secretary of state says, yes, we need to find out what actually took place here. The third party, fact checkers for a big tech. We’re propagandists. They were liars. Big tech is filled with liars and propagandists. When anybody dared to raise the possibility that this this virus was leaked from the lab. They were shut down. They got the scarlet letter and printed on their foreheads. I would encourage all the hosts, including on Fox and elsewhere on talk radio, if you’re going to talk about this subject, at least give Mr. Wade a little salute. Because it takes a brave man who used to write at The New York Times to write what he wrote, you don’t have to mention me. You don’t have to mention my show. But the fact is. That Nicholas Wade, whether he meant to or not, wittingly or unwittingly put the final nail in the coffin of the lie. That this was an animal to human. Transmission. The communist Chinese. Had the on lob and what it mostly does, there are these and these scientific efforts to make viruses more humanly lethal. More humanly lethal, there’s a whole world out there that does this. You and I are unfamiliar with. That’s why I spent a whole hour on it on Sunday. And now you see what can happen. This is the third time there’s been a leak from a Chinese lab. The third time. Joe Biden knows all this. And when Joe Biden spoke to. President for life, genocidal dictator Xi. He said, we’re friends, we talk for an hour or so. He never mentioned this, never brought it up. Not once. This man, Joe Biden, is truly the lowlife. That’s right, I said it. He would blame President Trump for the death of hundreds of thousands, yet he doesn’t have the guts to confront. She in the communist regime, which did this. Did this, even if it’s an accident. Imagine if we had known about this early on, imagine if we had known what it was early on. Imagine if they had been truthful and presented all the data in the scientists early on. Many people who are dead today will be alive, perhaps. Donald Trump. Had to fight with the same bureaucracy. To get these vaccines done faster than these bureaucracies, you. Still. The same bureaucracy. It helped the communist Chinese cover up what they did. That’s what you would have learned Sunday if you’d watched the show and for all the parakeets out there who repeat this, I’m glad you are. It’s important to get this information out there. But it’s also important to acknowledge this individual. And how you learned about most of it? I’ll be right back.
Hour 1 Segment 2
So now what will the Biden administration do to get to the bottom of this? All this talk about blaming the president of the United States for the deaths as a result of this virus. This current president doesn’t give a damn. How much time do I have, Rich? Let’s go to cut 17 go. Why isn’t President Biden pushing for more access, more information to get to the bottom of exactly what happened? We are and we have repeatedly called for the vote to support an expert driven evaluation of the pandemic’s origins that is free from interference or politicization. Now, there were phase one revolt results that came through. We were not during that first phase of the investigation. There was not access to data. There was not information provided. And now we’re hopeful that we can move into a more transparent, independent Phase two investigation. But with five hundred eighty nine thousand nine hundred twenty dead Americans. At what point does President Biden say, we don’t want to wait for the WHL? We don’t know what they’re doing. This needs to be an American led effort to get to the bottom of what happened. Well, first of all, we need access to the underlying data and information in order to have that investigation. And he talks all the time about how he’s known President Xi for a long time. So why can’t you just. And we need them for that. For me, I think you’re misunderstanding how this process actually works. An international investigation led by the World Health Organization is something that we’ve actually been pressing for for several months in coordination with a range of partners around the world. We need that data. We need that information from the Chinese government not going to get the information with all that flimflam and phony diplomacy. That’s not how that works. You have to put pressure on communist China. You have to put pressure on JI and you won’t do it. That’s why we can’t get the information. You’re quislings. You’re not a quisling is your quisling. I’ll be right back.
Hour 1 Segment 3
So this virus breaks out because of the communist Chinese and the Wuhan Lab. In my opinion. I mean, how many more bread crumbs do we need? The media immediately comes to the defense of communist China. The media immediately comes to the defense. Of the federal scientific and medical bureaucracy. You’ll recall early on they were trying to take out Donald Trump with the first impeachment. Joe Biden and the Democrats and the media immediately view this as an opportunity to exploit and defeat Donald Trump. Nothing he does is good enough, nothing he says goes without being mocked. Does it matter that the governors are destroying their own cities in their own states, that they were not prepared for a pandemic? And they’re supposed to have some preparation, but New York was the worst of it. California the second. New Jersey the third. The media immediately put up its charts and its graphs. And for every death, there was an attack on Donald Trump. Donald Trump’s failure to nationalize industries. Donald Trump’s failure to unite the people, Donald Trump s and Donald Trump that. Donald Trump’s not following the science, they kept saying. And yet Donald Trump was following the science. It’s the scientists who weren’t following the science. It’s a disgusting disgrace. And even today, we look at Breitbart hat tip to my buddy Moore Klein, Anthony Fauci, this is today reverses course yet again, quote, highly likely, unquote. Chinese coronavirus developed naturally. Now, he just said the other day. That is not clear on this, it needs to be investigated because it could have leaked from the lab. So the newest position from Fauci is they right comes after the infectious disease expert reversed course on May 11th, claiming he’s not convinced the virus developed naturally and that its origins merit investigation. No, actually, no, I’m not convinced. I’m quoting him about that. I think that we should continue to investigate what went on in China until we find out to the best of our ability exactly what happened. So I wanted to ask, are you still confident that it developed naturally? And he continued to reverse his opinion. Certainly the people who’ve investigated say it’s likely was the emergence from an animal reservoir. This is today. I mean, yeah, that then infected individuals. But it could have been something else. And we need to find out, blah, blah, blah. Ladies and gentlemen, it was falsies bureaucracy that funded this grant through a third party. The question to Fauci is, what did you know and when did you know it? If he says, I didn’t know, but he knows now. He knows now. Is he not trying to figure it out now? The answer is no. Well, who signed off on this grant when there was a moratorium, you haven’t heard that question asked, have you? Except for me who signed off on the grant. Because apparently only Francis Collins, the head of the National Institutes of Health, for whom Fauci works, apparently they’re the only ones who can sign off on this during a moratorium. I’m not interested in falsies opinion. The man is more than schizophrenic when it comes to his expert commentary. He’s got 23 personalities. But he’s the guy in charge. If he doesn’t know, he needs to find out what about the grant? How did it feel? I mean, that’s the first thing I’d be saying. Where the hell does Grant come from? When was it on my desk? When did I sign off on it with a thousand other things? He’s too busy doing friendly interviews. He won’t come back on the show, by the way, we’ve asked. He’s not coming back. So he’s changed his mind again from last week. Because he’s a political Washington creature, ladies and gentlemen, that’s what he is. He’s been in that same chair for thirty over 37 years. And he’s got a whole bunch of critics who the media will not, well, not interview. A whole bunch of critics about how he handled AIDS way back when. And why it took so long to try and find answers to that. And others, by the way. But they don’t talk to them. They don’t question him. He’s getting awards with a lot of money attached to it. It’s incredible. It’s the way they build up Andrew Cuomo. They built up Andrew Cuomo while he issued the order that resulted in the death of thousands and thousands of Americans. Somebody’s mother, somebody’s father, somebody’s grandfather, somebody’s grandmother. What an arrogant you know what, by the way, as so be. But so is Fauci. You have this winter, Michigan. She walks around. Let she’s clicking her heels all the time, pointing and ordering and ordering and pointing, she’s another favorite of the media. Oh, they love her. And she’s constantly cheating and lying about her own standards when it comes to her own life wearing a mask, she doesn’t wear a mask restaurant where it’s crowded. She’s at a restaurant where it’s crap doesn’t matter. Doesn’t matter. The Washington Post and The New York Times and all the rest of the phony media, they expect the American Marxists to live differently than the rest of us. That’s what they expect. So there needs to be pressure placed. And the Chinese government. Serious pressure, not diplomatic pressure, serious pressure. Economic pressure, we want the answer. And there needed to be pressure on our own government, Mr. Fauci excuse me, Doctor Fauci. It’s time for him to tell us what he knows and if he doesn’t know anything, why doesn’t he know anything? It says damn department, for God’s sakes. Who signed off on those grants, on that grant, who were they? During a moratorium. When only he and his boss are supposed to have the power to sign off, why was there more time in the first place? If you watch the show? You know, I asked Mr. Wade that. Because it concerns about the nature of the science. And the safety at the labs. That’s why. So how did this one get out? I mean, it did wind up in the death of hundreds of thousands of people. Nobody cares. Now, this is the bureaucracy that Donald Trump is dealing with, the virus broke out. I am sure not a single person, Fouchier or anybody else told him. Not a single one. That there was a grant given to a third party in New York, which in turn gave money. To that lab. To enhance the lethality to humans of a coronavirus and coronavirus is generally. Donald Trump has good instincts and a lot of common sense. He understood what took place here. But they attacked him. And Facebook and Twitter were busy marginalizing or worse, individuals who dared to raise issues. Very knowledgeable individuals didn’t matter. So they have blood on their hands to. When you do not allow a fulsome debate and discussion about what’s going on in the country, challenging the bureaucracy, challenging the so-called science. When you don’t allow that, when you crush it and then you influence politicians, you influence outcomes. Big tech is part of a. Totalitarian mindset, again, American Marxism, they don’t believe in free speech, they don’t believe in free debate, they don’t believe in intellectual challenging, none of it. And that’s what you saw here. You look at this, you look at the phony Russia collusion, how this went on, how does anybody have any confidence of any kind in the American media? It’s not possible if you’re a thinking human being. Any confidence whatsoever in big tech, which does the dirty work for the big thugs? It’s not possible to have any confidence in. Big tech, they steal your data, they make billions, and they’re the mouthpiece. For the American Marxist. That’s what’s going on. We’ll be right back.
Hour 1 Segment 4
Look at that, shootings up 81 percent in New York, 113 percent in Minneapolis, 50 percent in Atlanta, 33 percent in Chicago. Hey, how’s that undermining the cops going, you liberal nut jobs? So our media lie about the 20. Sixteen presidential election. They have lied about the 2020 presidential election in significant ways anyway. Like some of the most important federal constitutional based lawsuits that took place, they like to throw everything together, lump them on a big fat 66 suit and they didn’t win a single one. I’m talking about two lawsuits. Hey, they filed 60s. They’re like parrots. They just keep going on and on and on. Hey, shut up. Lie. They lied that President Trump sold out to Ukraine, it was disgusting. They lie that he incited an insurrection, there was no insurrection. Not one of those people even had a weapon, for God’s sakes. I like Black Lives Matter and Antifa. Any other Marxist operations right under our noses, look what’s going on in these cities. I want to thank the Democrat Party, I want to thank the media. I want to thank the sports icons in their broadcast, friends on ESPN. I want to thank them all. We now have an official crime wave going on in our major cities. Wow, that’s called a crime wave. What more blacks are killing more blacks at a record number than any time in modern history. So I want to thank them. For their for their wonderful actions is in the sick. Should they be denounced by professional basketball, should they be denounced by sportscasters, should they be denounced by Hollywood? Should they be denounced, denounced by mayors in these cities? Thank them. They’re giving the money. They’re giving Black Lives Matter money. They pretend and chief is mostly peaceful, but don’t worry. Don’t worry, we’re spending a fortune to protect the capital from another insurrection. Don’t worry, we got this covered. What a disgrace. Human beings killing human beings. What a disgusting disgrace. Yes, this is called what, criminal justice reform, what does this court? What concerns me is even if we take back the House and the Senate and the presidency, these cities are run by Democrats. A Republican Washington can’t fix that. They can’t fix the lack of school opportunity. They can’t fix the tax rates. They can’t fix the Democrat Party corruption in these cities, they can’t fix it. They can’t fix the NBA in the corporatists and all the rest to contribute who have contributed to this. They can’t fix it. Thinking about this critical race theory stuff, and we’ll get to more of this later. I dare to say these things before the book comes out, but that’s OK. The munchkins out there can repeat it. You see the beginnings of opposition rising in a few school districts. On critical race theory, but only a few. But think about this for a minute. Critical race theory will never be challenged in our major cities. It’s fully embraced by these mayors in these school boards, whether it’s San Francisco or Portland. Whether it’s Seattle. Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Chicago, you name it, these Democrat strongholds. Meanwhile, in more Republican areas. Critical race theory is under attack, as it should be in these various school districts here and there, it’s sporadic. We’re going to help unite these forces. That’s the whole point of the book. Well, one of the whole points of the book. So we’re going to have. Parts of the country. They reject critical race theory and should end parts of the country that embrace it, because now they’re part of the propaganda machine of the Democrat Party, an American Marxist. So we’re not going to have the country learning two different history. One, the truth and one a lie. And by the way, nobody’s saying segregation and slavery shouldn’t be taught, what we’re saying is we should not be adopting American Marxism, which uses race to destroy the country. There’s a difference. There’s a big difference. So now we’re going to have ideologically segregated school system. That’s not a very pretty picture, is it, ladies and gentlemen, that’s where we’re headed. All right, we’ve got a lot to cover, by the way, Dan Bongino, you did a great job today, my brother, my local station webmail. Wonderful line up. I was on with Larry O’Connor. It’s always an honor to be on with Larry’s terrific. And I want to thank all of our wonderful affiliates up and down the line. You are absolutely the best. I shall return..
