California Republican Rep. Devin Nunes weighs in on presidential race, Pelosi's 'salon-gate.'
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
We have a big news hour and big
news show ahead.
We will bring in a biggest right
now.
We have congressman Devin, Nunes
House, ranking member and author
of the upcoming book countdown
to socialism.
Congressman welcome to the
show,
as always great to have. You
here,
looks like a great book right
there.
So we have seen President Trump
and Joe Biden trading jabs about
who would be the best person to
lead right now, particularly on
the issue of law and order
lets take a listen and then we
will get your reaction to what
they both said.
The entire summer Biden was
silent as far left rioters
viciously attacked law
enforcement in Democrat Run
cities all burebsd down
businesses, terrorized
civilians and just recently
marched through the streets
chanting death to America. This
is what we have death to
America,
Boos.
Well. The president has made
great strides with this. With
this, you know, law and order
strides here
boy after his convention. He
really we really made
inroads.
He hasnt
not at all,
no im, not serious, im
sorrious.
This should give you a little
bit of confidence in the
american people.
Jedediah very different
approach,
your thoughts congressman
that was a little odd this
morning to listen to former Vice
President Biden. Is he whispering
through that mask?
I cant really tell
I am glad to be with you this
morning.
I dont have a view of the
statue of liberty or of cranes,
but I do have a great view of my
living room out here in
California early in the morning.
Its great to be with you
look.
It was nice to see Biden get out
of his basement. Finally, if you
go back, the president has been
speaking specifically about law
and order.
I would call back to July Third,
the media tried to ignore
this. This was when we were in
the midst of rioting, looting,
burning, remember when we had a
new country that was developed
in the middle of Seattle, the
Portland rioting was just
starting. They were tearing down
statues all over this country.
The president went to Mount
Rushmore and said this is not
the America im paraphrasing
this is not the America. We need
to live in and called for the
Democrats to come out and say this is wrong.
This is wrong
and if you noticed how do the
Democrats respond to the Antifa,
you never hear them say anything
about Antifa its a conspiracy
theory.
It doesnt exist. Look. Finally, one of these guys
look. Finally, one of these guys
went and shot a trump supporter.
Ifit was bound to happen,
murdered him in cold blood.
Other people involved in that
luckily, law enforcement ran into
and able to kill that Antifa
member.
Hopefully more of these people
will be brought to justice. Can I
tell you, Biden is out of the
basement, even if he is
whispering
PETE. He makes best points when
his back is to the camera.
Odd tick.
You are a lawmaker.
Your job is to craft laws in the
nation
we have seen. Municipalities go
above and divlawnd with shut
downs and masks.
One of your fellow lawmaker
likes to actually not follow the
laws that she tells everyone
else to follow, or wear of the
mask that she tells everyone
else to wear and was caught on.
Videotape
Snopes says it was a set up.
Theyre owner was out to get her
from the beginning.
President Trump had a chance to
weigh in on this as well
heres what he said.
I watched Nancy Pelosi. You
must wear your mask.
You have to wear your mask. Why
are going to keep every salon
owner closed all over the
country?
I see a picture, I say Nancy
Pelosi. Well, where is her mask?
She said I was set up. I was set
up
if she was set up, then she
shouldnt be leading the House
of Representatives.
I want the salon owner to lead
the House of representatives
as soon as I heard she said.
Well, she set me up
Nancy. You are not supposed to
get set up.
You are representing our
country,
she should have said. I made a
mistake,
sorry
PETE Congressman it was a
setup or is it all part of a
sham that ultimately she knows,
maybe she should be able to make
decisions for herself.
We should respect people enough
to do that. Yet she virtue
signals to everybody else. Keep
your mask on. Keep your
businesses closed, but deep down
like everybody else, she knows
we are free people that should
be able to make choices. Instead,
she is just a hypocrite,
so this is a real scandal.
This is what I would call salon
gate
laughter
if you have noticed. If you go
back for only six months, you
know I have been with her a few
times.
Her hair is perfect,
so im not exactly sure how she
was getting her hair done, but
for sure she was getting her
hair done.
Let me take people back to when
President Trump made the very
difficult decision to ban air
flights coming in from China.
The speaker of the house was
very critical.
They went out and said that he
was racist,
that he was against asian
people. You know a common
theme, but also remember she
went down to Chinatown after
that and said everybody come
out,
everybody come out, come down,
no mask no social distancing.
That was the beginning of salon
gate.
Also, you have to remember,
there was no mask,
she would wear these designer
phony masks.
I always tell people if you are
going to wear a mask.
You need to wear an n 59 mask
just wearing a cloth like you
are a cowboy or something or
some kind of it. May look. Look
nice or you may think it looks
nice, but it doesnt do
anything
its not like wearing an n 95
mask would do
I dont know how she was getting
her hair done all these months.
But finally, I think a salon
owner said look I have had
enough of it.
We need a real investigation
and you know PETE im sure.
Can you call your friend, Robert
Mueller? I hear that he is
looking for work now.
He runs great investigations. I
hear
Steve, so you are suggesting
that she has been breaking the
rules for the last six months,
but just got caught on Monday
right.
It has to be Steve.
There is no other possibility. I
mean her hair is perfect.
Look, she is a nice looking lady,
her hair is perfect
buff. How has she been getting
her hair done?
I know I had to go like two
months without getting my hair
done and eventually everybody
had to start doing these black
market haircuts. You know where
had you to sneak around or cut
your hair yourself,
Steve right,
I dont know how she got her
hair cut
Steve. Well, I was watching
Youtube videos.
I cut my own hair with a twelve dollars
pair of scissors from Amazon, and
I look great in the front.
The back was a little scary
congressman. I have to ask you
are out in California one of
the big California. Firms is
Facebook.
They have taken a lot of heat as
because of disinformation,
people critics say from the twenty sixteen
election, and so they have made
some changes and, starting this
year, coming up one week before
the election, Facebook will
prohibit new political ads from
running.
They are already running them.
They will be able to continue
them. The suggestion is: when
there is disinformation running
rampant, they will depend on
content moderation teams to
decide. You know whether or not
they should label it
now, whose side do you think
these content moderation teams
are going to be on?
Would they be on Joe Bidens
side?
Would they be on Donald trumps
side,
or would they be right down the
middle?
Well look. This is a very
serious issue,
and this is why I wrote the book
that I wrote is to make sure
that people understand this
its, not just that the media is
so biased,
its also now its the social
media companies that control how
we receive our information-
and I have been saying this for
a while- that the social media
companies, these tech oligarchs-
they really are.
These are Multi
Multibillionaires that are
either left wing or they are run
by left wing activists,
but for sure all the new woke
people. They are the ones that
are going to be these content
moderators.
This is once again censorship,
because sometimes the only way
we can get our message across as
Republicans is by buying our way
on,
we have to pay to get our
advertising on to Facebook.
I can tell you if you put
something on Facebook, that the
Facebook moderators dont, like
it, gets taken down
Steve yeah
from all these social media
companies,
so republican content will be
taken down in the last seven
days, what they will call
disinformation,
but truly what theyre providing
is a disinformation funnel flow
right to our phones
and it really is going to help
sway the election.
They are doing everything that
they possibly can,
and I believe that the Rnc or
the Trump campaign should bring
a lawsuit against Facebook
because going to put us at
tremendous disadvantage, I
believe
Steve sounds like the Doj is
going to go after Google.
Maybe they will go after
Facebook as well
congressman. Thank you very much
for joining us from your
location
have a good weekend
thanks guys.
