Are Extreme Democrat Policies Creating a 2022 Red Wave? | Kevin McCarthy | POLITICS | Rubin Report

Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to House Minority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy about why Nancy Pelosi is jealous of AOC, what we can do about the tech giants' data mining of our lives, and which Democrat continued to allow Eric Swalwell to be on the House Intelligence Committee despite the FBI knowing that he was involved with a Chinese spy. Kevin first discusses what it’s like to be a conservative in a blue state and what the dangers are of one party states that lack proper checks and balances. He explains why moderate Democrats have vanished and been replaced by far left Democrats that push polarizing failed policies. He shares why Nancy Pelosi is jealous of the power and attention that new progressive Democrats like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez get. While Democrats like Cori Bush, Ilhan Omar don’t represent the majority of the party, their agenda of defund the police and open borders is dominating the party. These extreme positions combined with rising inflation and backlash against critical race theory in education are making a red wave in the 2022 midterms more and more likely by the day. Kevin talks about the true danger of the Google monopoly in how they turn our data into their property to sell. He explains how big tech has become far too powerful and has made it impossible for any market competition in the tech sector. He explains how Amazon uses its data on small businesses selling through their site to produce cheaper versions of their goods. He shares some possible reforms including how to rethink section 230, that could make it more of a free market again. Kevin also warns about the dangers of the China threat and how the US China relationship has changed for the worse. He talks about how China has not suffered any consequences for all their lies at the beginning of the COVID pandemic. He also shares insider information of how Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats mishandled the revelation that Rep. Eric Swalwell had a relationship with a Chinese spy named Fang Fang (aka Christine Fang) and maintained his security clearance and seat on the House Intelligence Committee despite warnings from the FBI.

Good 1….. but remember, it’s who counts the votes that matter

[jordanallison]

Another swamp creature who seemingly barely backed the only guy actually doing things (orange man) by rolling over and letting the democrats walk all over them and just whining without actually winning any of the battles.

[mdbhsv]

After hearing so much bad about McCarthy, I now love McCarthy! I'm hearing, learning and listening . This dude is deep, his knowledge of history, I love, and I relate to him cause I'm the only black conservative in my family.

[beckmc]

This dude is a politician thru and thru! Slimy!

How to get Swalwell off the Intel committee:

Every time you meet and receive some sensitive piece of information, turn to him and ask, "What is China going to think about that, Eric?"

[davidstevenson]

I was talking about the same stuff recently with my son and he said, dad always remember this. We are the greatest country in the world an do you know how I know this? It’s because not one American ever has made a raft out of garbage and refuse to escape our country and go to where they think it is better. But people from other nations will risk their life on a vessel made from twine and plastic jugs to come to the United States for a chance at freedom and better opportunities in life.

[Yerasis]

Awesome…Awesome…Awesome interview. Learned a ton about so many things. Thank you both so much.
God bless you and God bless America. 👏🙏🇺🇸

[bessiemento]

I am not sure I would prefer a red wave (I would call it a pinkish/purplish ) if the new reps either answer to McCarthy or think like him. NO more Rinos please. I like reps you can count on one way or the other.

This is a very powerful interview, Dave. Great work. Hope to hear more from McCarthy

[tomtwo]

McCarthy is weak. Paul Ryan 2.0. He needs to go. ASAP.

[musikrantproductions]

FABULOUS INTERVIEW. I had no idea that KM was such a historian. Enlightening and deep conversation. THANKS DAVE 🦋

[PhoenixStarborn]

Dave, Dave, Dave....'enjoyed that interview' wouldn't be the right words for me.
It was 'interesting'.
I wouldn't buy a used car from McCarthy, that's for sure.
He's got a lot of Presence, he knows a lot of words, he knows how to dominate a "conversation".
Buy....what's he doing?
None of the Republicans in positions of 'Power'' are doing anything.
USA & the World are in serious trouble. He talks about succeeding because of "the idea" of Freedom...
Dude, a lot of people Love the Idea of Freedom, but they are still subjugated.
The Entire Government should be Fired, dismissed, gotten rid of and Start Over.
Supposed to represent the People, but almost 100% of you are there for your self interest.
How else could someone like Swawell be on the Intel Committee unless the system is broken.
How can Bill's get voted on, by people that haven't read it or discussed/debated it.
How can an Election do what it did.
How can 3 letter Agencies never investigate & prosecute politicians?
Russia Collusion Hoax, nobody got charged....nothing ever happens when these Establishment people do illegal stuff, treasonous stuff.
The Biggest Threat to America, is The Establishment...then maybe it's China & Debt.
During The Controlled Demolition of the USA that is taking place by the Globalists with China, I think the Politicians & The Military Industrial Complex are going to Start WW3 (as in physical weaponry) I realise it's already started, and USA Politicians have just let China & Globalist Agenda just walk in the front Door. In education, tech, Politics, Corruption payoffs, bribes and all that.
The Establishment has Sold Out the USA & The Military has not Exercised their Oath (leadership not the Soldiers and veterans themselves) to Protect America.
Order Followers are the Mechanism by which Tyranny succeeds...
Far too many people following Bad orders.
McCarthy gives me Zero Confidence of fixing this. The Establishment Swamp is so biased, broken & Corrupted, at every level, and in every Agency.
It still stuns me, that High Level Politicians, Individuals or Agency Heads never ever get prosecuted for their Crimes & Corruption, like everyone knows about it, but things just carry on. Democracy you say. Nobody is above the law you say.

The Establishment Swamp will be the Death of America.

[gregbianchi]

He sounds like a Don't trust any of them. It all started to go bad when Trump mentioned TERM LIMITS !!!! Thats what we need to keep them in line

[martinbrown]

Lol, imagine believing that democratic elections will still exist in 2022...🤣

[JXY]

This actually improved my opinion of McCarthy. I never thought he seemed that bright from watching him on tv but in this format he gets to discuss a little more and comes across better

[myvotedontcount]

I trust Kevin McCarthy as far as I can throw him.
