[00:00.720 --> 00:04.240]  I'm Dave Champion. If you've been following me for any length of time, you've almost certainly
[00:04.240 --> 00:08.000]  seen my videos in which I lay out the facts, the information, and the data concerning SARS-CoV-2
[00:08.000 --> 00:15.280]  and COVID-19. Not the nonsensical government and media narrative, but the actual data. What's
[00:15.280 --> 00:20.240]  really going on? And in a video I released just the other day, I talked about the comments made
[00:20.240 --> 00:27.360]  by Dr. Martin McCary, which he said the United States has already achieved herd immunity back
[00:27.360 --> 00:32.880]  in January, and that COVID-19 will essentially be gone. It'll barely be a thing. It'll be
[00:32.880 --> 00:40.160]  irrelevant by April. But of course, we know a great deal of what's been going on in the last 14 months
[00:40.160 --> 00:48.960]  is, sadly, political. And as far as these governors are concerned, as things wind down,
[00:48.960 --> 00:56.320]  the political equation becomes much more tricky, and many of them are facing re-election in 2022.
[00:56.320 --> 00:57.440]  So let's talk about that.
[01:04.800 --> 01:08.080]  Whenever we're looking at a political equation, then we have to consider the
[01:08.640 --> 01:12.560]  motivations of the politicians involved. And unless they come right out and tell you what
[01:12.560 --> 01:19.120]  their motivations are, which is incredibly rare, we have to presume what they might be.
[01:19.120 --> 01:25.680]  So I'd like to tell you a story, which of course has a punchline, has a conclusion. We'll see how
[01:25.680 --> 01:32.000]  you feel about that. Our story begins back in April 2020, when five states, California,
[01:32.000 --> 01:40.480]  Oregon, Washington, Colorado, and Nevada entered into the Western States Pact concerning
[01:41.280 --> 01:49.360]  SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19. The premise of this Western States Pact was that the virus doesn't
[01:49.360 --> 01:56.080]  respect borders, so we all need to work together. And of course, a big part of working together is
[01:56.080 --> 02:01.120]  exchanging information. California, being the wealthiest of the five states by far,
[02:01.760 --> 02:07.760]  took the lead with data, including something called predictive data. And that is the kind
[02:07.760 --> 02:16.240]  of thing where various health experts at usually universities, they look at the trends,
[02:17.040 --> 02:23.360]  and they put it into some sort of computer model. And that tells them, presumably, what's going to
[02:23.360 --> 02:29.520]  happen next week, next month, three months from now, and so forth. And so California was leading
[02:29.520 --> 02:36.000]  the charge concerning the SARS-CoV-2 predictive data for these five states in the Western States
[02:36.000 --> 02:41.040]  Pact. And then California was sharing that predictive data with the other four states.
[02:41.040 --> 02:46.720]  Now, our story gets a little interesting. Beginning to mid-January, when Newsom
[02:47.360 --> 02:55.520]  ordered that data to no longer be made available to its private partners, private institutions that
[02:55.520 --> 03:01.760]  were working with the state to combat the virus, Newsom said, you can't see our predictive data
[03:01.760 --> 03:09.120]  anymore. Yet Newsom was allowing the other four states to see California's predictive data,
[03:09.120 --> 03:14.400]  as long as those four states agreed to the same limitations, that they could not take California's
[03:14.400 --> 03:19.120]  predictive data and share it with their private institutions. I think it's important to keep in
[03:19.120 --> 03:25.280]  mind that for in the range of nine months, California shared its predictive data with
[03:25.280 --> 03:29.200]  private institutions that it was partnered with and shared it without restrictions to the other
[03:29.200 --> 03:35.680]  four states. But suddenly, early to mid-January, Newsom ordered that predictive data to be locked
[03:35.680 --> 03:43.920]  up, to be kept secret. On February 18th, The Wall Street Journal ran an article featuring the remarks
[03:43.920 --> 03:48.880]  I shared with you earlier from Dr. Martin Makary, where he said the United States has been in herd
[03:48.880 --> 03:56.400]  immunity since the beginning of January, and COVID-19 won't really be a thing by April.
[03:56.400 --> 04:02.960]  I'm confident that's exactly what the predictive data from California was showing Newsom, and
[04:02.960 --> 04:08.960]  that's exactly why he suddenly said, we've been sharing this openly, and now we lock it up. Now
[04:08.960 --> 04:14.160]  it's a secret, because the predictive data was showing the same thing that Dr. Makary was saying,
[04:14.160 --> 04:19.040]  is that the United States had reached herd immunity, cases were plummeting, and it was
[04:19.040 --> 04:24.800]  about to go away, and Newsom had a number of reasons that he doesn't want anyone outside of
[04:24.800 --> 04:32.480]  government knowing that. Now let's switch and talk about Nevada Governor Sisolak. Sisolak
[04:32.560 --> 04:41.280]  is a Newsom sycophant. Whatever Governor Newsom does, Sisolak generally does 10 days, 14 days,
[04:41.280 --> 04:46.640]  20 days after Newsom does it. Then, of course, day in and day out, Sisolak was looking at that
[04:46.640 --> 04:51.280]  California predictive data showing that the United States had gone into herd immunity,
[04:51.280 --> 04:56.640]  which would include California and Nevada. In November, Sisolak had taken the existing
[04:56.720 --> 05:01.520]  restrictions, which were pretty horrific, and he'd added more restrictions to that.
[05:02.080 --> 05:09.600]  On February 11th, he announced that he was going to ease that. Now remember, the data was showing
[05:09.600 --> 05:14.080]  that the United States was in herd immunity back at the beginning of January. On February 11th,
[05:14.080 --> 05:20.480]  he holds a press conference, and he says, I'm going to ease the restrictions. Now he's looking
[05:20.480 --> 05:27.920]  at the data, so he knows where we're really at. He eased the restrictions about that much. It was
[05:27.920 --> 05:33.920]  a disgrace. It was things like you don't have to make an appointment anymore to go pick up food
[05:33.920 --> 05:39.120]  from a fast food restaurant. But the disgraceful and idiotic part of Sisolak's press conference
[05:39.120 --> 05:43.520]  is not the part that's important for the purpose of this tale. For the purpose of this tale,
[05:43.520 --> 05:52.080]  the important part is Sisolak saying that come May 1st, he's going to turn over the day-to-day
[05:52.080 --> 05:58.800]  affairs of how to deal with SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 to the counties and to the cities. In other words,
[05:58.800 --> 06:05.600]  he's going to step away from the situation come May 1st. At this point in our tale,
[06:05.600 --> 06:11.760]  let's put a couple of pieces together. Dr. McCary said the United States was in herd immunity since
[06:11.760 --> 06:18.080]  early January, and COVID's not even really going to be a thing by April. Second point,
[06:18.640 --> 06:25.440]  the predictive data that Sisolak is looking at, provided to him by Newsom, is telling him
[06:25.440 --> 06:33.040]  that exact same story. And lastly, after five weeks of plunging new daily infections, as
[06:33.040 --> 06:40.000]  I'm sitting here talking to you today, Nevada has experienced a 92% reduction in new daily infections.
[06:40.480 --> 06:47.040]  We have McCary's statement, we have him looking at the predictive data, and we have the five weeks
[06:47.040 --> 06:52.320]  of plunging cases from about January 7th through February 11th when he had his press conference,
[06:52.320 --> 06:59.280]  at which he said, I'm going to step out of this process. Why would he do that?
[06:59.840 --> 07:06.480]  I think the first thing to understand when we look at the why is that Sisolak has had absolutely no
[07:06.480 --> 07:11.920]  problem grabbing the reins of power and being a dictator. It's not like that bothers him because
[07:11.920 --> 07:17.680]  so he's not stepping away because I've had too much of this dictatorial power. That's not who he
[07:17.680 --> 07:27.520]  is. But he is facing reelection in November 2022. Might that have something to do with why he's,
[07:28.080 --> 07:32.320]  as of March 1st, stepping out of the process? Yeah, absolutely. And here's why.
[07:32.960 --> 07:40.720]  Sisolak believes that he is due much credit from the voters of Nevada for his actions from
[07:40.720 --> 07:47.280]  March 2020 through February of 2021. He really thinks that the way he positioned everything and
[07:47.280 --> 07:52.800]  the way he did it and the way he spoke and the measures he took, that the voters of Nevada are
[07:52.800 --> 08:00.640]  going to be very supportive of that. However, he's well aware that it's easy to look good,
[08:01.200 --> 08:05.600]  at least in the minds of idiots, when they're panicked, when they're fearful.
[08:06.160 --> 08:16.800]  So that's what he's counting on. But when what drives the fear is over or greatly diminished,
[08:16.800 --> 08:22.400]  and now you've got to unwind this politically, when he's looking at November 2022,
[08:23.040 --> 08:28.800]  this is the rat's nest. This is the problem. This is where he has to be very, very careful.
[08:28.800 --> 08:35.280]  If he thinks he has any chance of getting reelected in 2022, as I'm imagining exists
[08:35.280 --> 08:40.880]  anywhere in the country, Nevada has basically two demographics, speaking in big broad terms.
[08:41.440 --> 08:45.360]  One is the COVID idiots who are fearful and they're emotionally invested in that and they
[08:45.360 --> 08:50.320]  want to remain fearful. They'd love it if this whole virus thing would continue on and on and
[08:50.320 --> 08:55.840]  on so they can continue virtue signaling. And they want the heavy hand of government to continue.
[08:55.840 --> 08:59.840]  That's the first group. Then you've got the second group, which includes people like me,
[08:59.840 --> 09:02.640]  which says the government should have never been doing the kinds of things it was doing in the
[09:02.640 --> 09:08.880]  first place. So yeah, now that the government doesn't have a justification and now that the
[09:10.160 --> 09:17.520]  latest data is removing the reasons for all that fear, that this is the time
[09:17.520 --> 09:22.240]  for us to pressure government to stop the shit it should have never been doing in the first place.
[09:22.880 --> 09:29.840]  So here's the dilemma Sisolak is facing. If he keeps the heavy hand of government
[09:31.680 --> 09:37.040]  on the state of Nevada, on the people of Nevada, he's going to irritate half the people. He's going
[09:37.040 --> 09:43.040]  to displease half the people who then may not vote for him in November 22. If on the other hand,
[09:43.040 --> 09:48.320]  he does what I would want him to do, which is, okay, it's over. We're done lifting the
[09:48.320 --> 09:52.320]  mask, lifting the social distancing, lifting all the restrictions on business, blah, blah, blah.
[09:52.320 --> 09:56.320]  Then he would inflame the covitiates who are emotionally invested and want the heavy hand
[09:56.320 --> 10:03.520]  of government to continue. No matter what he does at this point, as things are unwinding,
[10:03.520 --> 10:10.960]  he's going to either anger this group or this group, or he can tread the middle of the road
[10:10.960 --> 10:15.520]  and he can anger them both, which means he doesn't stand a chance in November 22.
[10:16.480 --> 10:24.640]  So with that as the political equation, what's the solution? Sisolak's solution, for which I have to
[10:24.640 --> 10:30.560]  give him credit, politically speaking, it's an astute way to go, is for him to say, you know,
[10:30.560 --> 10:36.480]  I've done such great work so far. On May 1st, I'm going to step away. I'm going to turn this all
[10:36.480 --> 10:42.000]  over to the counties and to the cities. Then when the messy part happens, right, when you've got
[10:42.160 --> 10:47.840]  these competing factions, the covitiates versus the rational people, and people are irritated,
[10:47.840 --> 10:51.680]  like, well, why are we still dealing with this? Or, oh my God, I can't believe the government
[10:51.680 --> 10:57.040]  eased this restriction. Then when they scream and yell and they get upset, Sisolak can say,
[10:57.040 --> 11:05.840]  well, if that took place after May 1st, that wasn't me, that was them. Vote for me in November 22.
[11:06.720 --> 11:12.960]  But what most people probably did not catch as they were watching Sisolak's February 11th
[11:12.960 --> 11:20.000]  press conference is that he didn't mention terminating the emergency declaration that
[11:20.000 --> 11:28.240]  gives him all of his dictatorial powers. That wasn't mentioned even once. If you don't live
[11:28.240 --> 11:33.360]  in the state of Nevada, you may be wondering, why have I listened to this long-winded political tale
[11:33.360 --> 11:37.520]  concerning the state of Nevada and Governor Sisolak? Well, first of all, I want you to be
[11:37.520 --> 11:44.400]  aware and alert so if your governor starts trying to play the same sort of games, you can say, aha,
[11:45.120 --> 11:50.640]  I know exactly what the governor is trying to do. The governor is trying to remove him or herself
[11:50.640 --> 11:55.920]  from the consequences of pissing off the voters as they're heading into election season.
[11:56.640 --> 11:59.920]  And that brings me to what is perhaps the main point of this video.
[12:00.320 --> 12:07.120]  With so many of these what I call lockdown governors running for reelection in November
[12:07.120 --> 12:15.920]  of 2022, what should we do about it? As you may know, I'm nonpartisan. I'm not Republican
[12:15.920 --> 12:20.400]  and I'm not Democrat, and frankly, the whole partisan thing turns me off. I think it is one
[12:20.400 --> 12:26.160]  of the biggest problems we have in America right now. However, looking forward to November 2022
[12:26.160 --> 12:34.880]  November 2022 and the gubernatorial elections, here's my view. Let's use California as an example.
[12:35.440 --> 12:47.360]  Prior to COVID-19, Newsom was a shoo-in to be reelected. However, there is a very active recall
[12:47.360 --> 12:54.320]  effort in California. They recently got all the signatures they need to recall him, all they need
[12:54.320 --> 12:59.120]  to go through now is signature verification. And if most of those signatures, the lion's share of
[12:59.120 --> 13:06.400]  them, are verified, then the movement will have the signature sufficient to get this on the ballot
[13:06.400 --> 13:14.560]  and to conduct a recall. So Newsom is in a very awkward position. He is politically weakened
[13:15.120 --> 13:19.520]  when it comes to his reelection. So using California as an example, of course, it's an
[13:19.520 --> 13:26.240]  incredibly left-leaning state. Do I imagine that the voters of California are going to put a
[13:26.240 --> 13:32.720]  Republican in the governor's mansion? I don't. I moved out of California 12 years ago because I
[13:32.720 --> 13:37.840]  looked around, I'm like, okay, so all these people I'm living amongst, as far as voters are concerned,
[13:37.840 --> 13:42.800]  they're brain dead. So I haven't seen any signs that that's getting any better or has gotten any
[13:42.800 --> 13:48.400]  better. So no, I don't imagine they would put somebody other than a very left-leaning Democrat
[13:48.400 --> 13:54.480]  in the governor's mansion, which is not really my point when it comes to lockdown governors.
[13:54.480 --> 14:00.640]  The point when it comes to lockdown governors is I don't really care who gets put in the governor's
[14:00.640 --> 14:06.880]  mansion as long as it's not the person who committed the lockdowns. We need to send a message
[14:07.600 --> 14:13.760]  nationally. If you lock down, now I'm not talking about you lock down for 30 days at the very
[14:13.760 --> 14:21.440]  beginning because you didn't have all the data. Wrong? Yes, absolutely. Forgivable? Yeah, I think
[14:21.440 --> 14:25.520]  so. A short lockdown because you were panicked and you thought you were doing the right thing?
[14:25.520 --> 14:28.800]  Okay. Whether you're Republican, whether you're Democrat, I don't think that matters.
[14:29.600 --> 14:37.120]  But those who locked down and locked down again and crippled businesses and put family businesses
[14:37.120 --> 14:42.080]  that have been in business for generations, put them out of business, that kind of thing,
[14:42.080 --> 14:47.840]  watch their suicide rate and their poverty rate soar. For the purpose of the point I'm making here,
[14:47.840 --> 14:51.760]  I don't care who's in the governor's mansion, whether the person is more right-leaning,
[14:51.760 --> 14:58.720]  whether the person is more left-leaning, as long as every single state that has a lockdown governor
[14:58.720 --> 15:05.600]  that they turn that son of a bitch out and do not re-elect them, Americans need to send a message.
[15:06.560 --> 15:12.800]  This is impermissible. You got away with it because we didn't see this coming.
[15:13.600 --> 15:19.840]  But we're going to send national message, a nationwide message. If you thought that was
[15:19.840 --> 15:26.400]  acceptable to do to us, you cannot be re-elected. And this needs to happen in every single state
[15:26.400 --> 15:32.720]  of the union who has a lockdown governor. So this whole political tale I've been sharing with you
[15:32.720 --> 15:40.800]  from secret predictive data and the western states PAC and Newsom and then his sycophant
[15:40.800 --> 15:46.320]  Sisolak moving through this whole process discussing how the politics is playing out
[15:46.320 --> 15:53.760]  really comes back to the November 2022 election and what, in my opinion, we need to make sure
[15:53.760 --> 16:01.440]  happens that no lockdown governor, not one across the United States gets re-elected in 2022.
