Summary

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the CDC received a blistering report regarding its handling of COVID and it was determined that it fell short of expectations and will be shaking things up. Contrary to what it sounds like the CDC will likely shake things up to make things more political while instituting additional woke policies. Then, Liz Cheney lost her election and keeps burping up platitudes about democracy instead of discussing our constitutional republic. Cheney is all about her and no one else especially not the American people in Wyoming. Cheney is no Abraham Lincoln, she's actually more like Benedict Arnold. Later, FL Gov. Ron DeSantis blasts Biden for adding 87,000 IRS agents to target the Administration's political enemies and raise money for the ruling class's pet projects. This massive spending and tax law will not reduce inflation, it will only empower the government and hurt the people. Also, under the Espionage Act, the people that write these classified documents have the responsibility to retrieve said documents, the responsibility is not the President's. Will anyone that produced or delivered classified information to President Trump be prosecuted? Afterward, Paul Manafort calls in to discuss his new book "Political Prisoner: Persecuted, Prosecuted, but Not Silenced." https://www.amazon.com/Political-Prisoner-Persecuted-Prosecuted-Silenced/dp/1510772421 Manafort added that he was imprisoned in solitary confinement with a 10 million dollar bond for an alleged Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA). Manafort details how the feds only mistreated him in order to get to Trump by any means necessary. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Hello, American Mark Levin here our number 877-381-3811-877-381-3811. I'll be on Hannity tonight 9.30 PM Eastern time. I hope you'll watch now.

2:07.4

The Center for Disease Control has received a blistering blistering report.

2:17.4

We had the virus and so forth trying to pull this up for you. I want to remind you this all nursing homes situation that we were the first to talk about this when we were tipped off on the air.

2:45.4

I was a doctor who was an administrator in nursing home and I would go through the stats that were provided by the CDC and I would tell you that the definition of just COVID is confusing.

3:03.4

It seems overly broad that the direction that was being given was contradictory. I had people on my show, Life, Liberty and Levin, people behind this mic.

3:21.4

And of course I was an attack as a denier. I was a denier of what? I don't deny there's a virus. Of course I didn't deny that there's a virus.

3:35.4

But there were a lot of questions to be asked and the CDC was not up to it. And one of the reasons is because of politicization, which is not.

3:47.4

A top subject of this report because they would respond to Democrat interest groups like the teachers union, which really wasn't part of the report either.

4:01.4

And of course we have Fauci who said don't wear masks and then wear masks, wear boots, wear burkas, wear goggles, double mask. And nobody serious was buying any of that except of course the media pushing the agenda.

4:23.4

And now the CDC director, Walensky, she now admits the CDC did not reliably meet expectations on COVID-19.

4:33.4

They had had a review of its structure systems and processes. Now they're going to have a shake up.

4:41.4

The head of the Centers of Disease Control Prevention today acknowledged the agency fell short of expectations. It's handling of the coronavirus pandemic announced drastic changes for its operations.

4:54.4

Walensky said for 75 years CDC and public health have been preparing for COVID-19 and in our big moment our performance did not reliably meet expectations. And of course Fauci is one of the reasons and of course his ass should be kicked out and kicked out fast.

5:12.4

My goal is a new public health action oriented culture at CDC that emphasizes accountability, collaboration, communication and timeliness. Notice she doesn't say eliminates politics.

5:28.4

The agency in April announced a review of its structure systems and processes and the review came after criticism the agency was slow to alter COVID-19 guidance in the face of changing science. Often produce confusing recommendations that were difficult for the public to decipher.

5:47.4

Changes would also include the appointment of Mary Wakefield, a former Obama administration health official to lead the agencies move toward a stronger public health focus. Additionally, the CDC will strengthen the response team for health emergencies, going to the New York Times.

6:04.4

One of the other things I want to look at is diversity at the highest level. So let me tell you this.
