Load the liquid oxygen into the booster rockets. Spacex will try again saturday afternoon, 3 22 eastern time. Before leaving for florida this morning, President Trump took direct aim at big tech in this country. President trump is threatening to regulate, to even close down some social media platforms that he says are silencing conservative voices, and the evidence is on his side. The president is angry and, in my opinion, justifiably so. President trumps warning comes only hours after twitter slapped a fact check warning on two of his tweets about potential fraud involving early mailin ballots. The warning linking to Fact Checkers at leftwing, fake news organizations if you can imagine this, cnn, the Washington Post who say the president s claims are false. So we have fake news claims about the president s assertions on twitter. Twitter, however, chose not to disclose that it is an active and premier partner, excuse me, of vote early day 2020. Its an organization, an Advocacy Group pushing early voting thats right, exact ily what the president opposed and vote by mail. President trump is now accusing twitter of election interference and stifling free speech. His own. Imagine, interfering with the president s free speech rights. Twitter has now shown, he tweets, that everything weve been saying about them and their other compatriots is correct. Big action to follow. Big action was taken today by the Trump Administration against the communist Chinese Party. Secretary of state pompeo notifying congress that hong kong is no longer i autonomous and no longer warrants special treatment under u. S. Law. This as riot police in hong kong took a zero tolerance approach to new demonstrations on the streets. Our own susan lee with more now from new york. Susan . Reporter lou, running street ballots return in hong kong as the secretary of state mike pompeo says that hong kong no longer is no longer independent. A Controversial National security bill, if passed, beijing with would be able to write security laws for hong kong without input from the city, a move that many residents say would be the end of hong kong as we know it. Over 300 arrested, clashes taking place between protesters and police in several of the main districts. Secretary of state pompeo has alerted congress saying after careful study of developments over the reporting period, i certified to Congress Today that hong kong does not continue to warrant treatment under United States law in the same american. Now remember that this was the underlying requirement in the hong kong human rights and democracy act that was passioned by Congress Passed by congress and signed by President Trump last year. If beijing was deemed to be enroaching on autonomy encroaching, they had a slate of tools including sanctions, penalties and revoking visas. Well, theres a whole menu of potential things that he could do, and im sure theyre working right now on exactly how to refine the thinking and come up with something thats an appropriate response. Reporter now, speaking of response, chinas propaganda arm, the global times, tweeting about the u. S. Response and the actions they may take. They say if washington brashly takes actions over hong kong, it could accelerate u. S. Decoupling with the rest of the world and pare the vast interests impair the vast interests of businesses in the city. Though china hasnt a passed the National Security law just yet, it is expected to, and then well see what the president decides to do. Lou . Lou susan, thank you very much. In short, theres not much, it appears that the administration can do. The communist Chinese Party is spinning a new narrative about the origins now of the wuhan virus. Chinese state media saying the Seafood Market in wuhan may not be the origin of the virus after all. Scientists reportedly have discovered a new group of early virus patients in shanghai that had no previous known connection to the market. Ore chinese officials other chinese officials are also spinning up satisfactories, maintaining stories, maintaining that the virus did not originate in the Wuhan Institute of virology, but they have yet to say exactly where it did come from or even that it originated in china. The chinese lies continue. Their disinformation and Propaganda Campaign only intensifies. A canadian judge today saying the u. S. Extradition case against a huaweis chief Financial Officer may continue. The judge found the case meets the threshold of double criminality meaning the charges against her are crimes in both the United States and canada. The Trump Administration wants her to stand trial on charges linked to violations of u. S. Sanctions against iran. Well, joining us tonight to take all of this up is gordon chang, columnist, author, senior fellow at the gatestone institute. Gordon, lets start with listening to wilbur ross, the secretary of commerce, talk rather gently a around the answer which is seemingly that the United States has very little it can do about hong kong. Your thoughts. We have a lot we can do about hong kong. And its not just revocking the sanctions revoking the sanction waivers and the tariff waivers, i think we should look at hong kong in the context of china, of course. Its across the board. So our response should be across the board. And, of course, our response on hong kong will be part of that. So we should be looking at trade prohibitions, investment prohibitions, all the rest of this. Lou okay. All the rest of this, im i dont still understand what action we can take that will change the outcome in Hong Kong Based on what you talked about as broad options. Or what are they . What specificity . What is the penalty that would be exacted on china . Well, youre right that we cant stop the passage of the article or 23 National Security legislation, but, you know, we have all sorts of tools to get u. S. Companies out of china. So first, since the president can use his broad authorities under the International Emergencies economic powers act of 1977, and that means that he could force companies effectively off chinese soil, and we could stop investment into china. Also he could get Companies Like google to end their partnerships with basically the Chinese Military on things like artificial intelligence. Lou the question becomes 100,000 americans killed by the virus that originated in wuhan, hubei province, china, and president xi chose not to warn anyone in the world of the deadly contagion that they had unleashed. What why would we be waiting to tell our companies to get out . Why would we be waiting to say this is an outrage against america and our National Interest . Why would we not have already done so . Yeah, we should have lou because that is a greater crime unfortunately, im saying to you, gordon, that is a greater crime against america than what is being done in hong kong. As outrageous as it is. Well, youre absolutely right, lou, and we should be doing something immediately. And it was worse than xi jinping not saying anything about humantohuman transmissibility. For a period of about five weeks, the chinese leaders actually deliberately lied about the contagiousness of this disease. And at the same time, they pressured countries to accept arrivals from china, not to impose those quarantines and restrictions. And you put those two actions lou the [inaudible] yeah. You put those lou to put a finer point of it, what were really saying is the Chinese Government sent their nationals who were sick is and had been likely contaminated on International Flight as they were shutting down domestic flights within china. The evidence speaks for itself. The decisions speak for themselves. It was an outrage against the world. And it was measure more than just the mass world wide killing that President Trump talked about, it actually is akin to murder. So we have 100,000 americans dead, and we cannot forget this. And, by the way, lou, weve got to deter chinese leaders from doing this again because this is not the last pathogen thats going to be generated on chinese soil. Virologists actually this last week said theres going to be more of these outbreaks which means weve got to make sure that we protect ourselves. And because chinese communism is unreform bl, the only way to protect ourselves is to reduce our exposure to china which means no trade, no investment, no tech partnerships, no nothing. Lou and do you believe that the Trump Administration is responding proportionally and correctly in this crisis . I think the Trump Administration is moving as fast as popular opinion will let it. I believe, though, that we should be moving faster lou those are damning words, gordon. Those are damning words. This president is not a politician. He is, arguably, the greatest president in our history, and and youre telling me that hes waiting on popular opinion . To make decisions about National Security and the National Interest . Hes moving faster than any president before him, and thats important. Because right lou no president before him n all fairness, had 100,000 americans dead as a result of the action of the communist Chinese Government, did they . No, they didnt. And we americans have yet to come to the conclusion that this was deliberate murder. But President Trump has been leaning lou well, what else could you call it . I believe its mass murder. Because this was deliberate. When you hook at the actions of the look at the actions of the we, of course, dont know what was in xi jinpings mind, but if after lou who cares what have in his mind . Who cares what was in his mind . He made a conscious decision not to warn the world of the deadly contagion that the chinese had unleashed. What more do you need to know . He lied. It was more than just not telling the world, he lied. And what im saying, lou lou well, any one of them is enough. Absolutely. This was murder. Lou gordon chang, good to have you with us.

Lou breaking news now, a number of republican senators, rinos all, writing to President Trump today urging him not to restrict temporary work visas which they say will actually help the economic recovery. That is to say they are rinos, they know nothing about economics, and theyre willing to lie to the president of the United States. Here they are Lindsey Graham, john cornyn, mike crapo, james risch, mike if rounds, todd young, lisa murkowski, dan sullivan and james lankford. These senators know nothing about economics, they know nothing about the American People when almost 40 million American Workers are unemployed within the last nine weeks alone, and these, these conscienceless senators have the temerity to write to the president asking them to bring in more foreign workers. The Unemployment Rate at 15 , and i want to challenge any of these senators to come off the their shadows, step into our cameras and debate me on this issue if you have any integrity, any guts whatsoever. And i doubt very seriously that a single one of them will do so. Theyre appalling, each and every one of them. Well, breaking news tonight, tech billionaires, well, theyre spending big money because thats their way. After all, theyre billionaires. They want to help joe biden catch up with President Trump on his digital campaigning. They include these big tech folks, linkedin founder reed hoffman, facebooks cofounder, and former google ceo, of course, eric. Michigan all, all wanting to help out sleepy joe eric. Schmidt. Well, the twitter board has a history of making antitrump comments, his name is yoel roth. Hes tweeted in the past that there are, quote actual nazis in the white house. End quote. And, quote im just saying, we fly over those states that voted for a reeses tangerine for a reason. End quote. And these this is just incredible. Joining us tonight to take this up, sara carter, shes investigative reporter, fox business contributor. Sara, great to have you with us. Good to be with you, lou, thank you. Lou its not its obviously not decency, and its sure as hell not neutrality or objectivity. No, absolutely not. Youre 100 right. His own tweets that were never fact checked, by the way, by twitter, complete lies, absolutely politically biased. He obviously hates trump, he hates the Trump Administration, and we this consistently we see this consistently that theres this bias on twitter, lou, and on facebook and other media platforms like google. Ive talked to insiders before that have said we know its happening, weve, you know, weve reported on it, there have been whistleblowers. And unfortunately what were seeing is these hightech companies with a lot of power basically putting themselves into the middle of the election. Now, with twitter and facebook, they actually said in the beginning, look, we need to stop fake news because of what happened with russia. But actually, theyve invested more in getting involved in the election than weve seen from other countries. For example, they did this to President Trump, right . As far as, like, Fact Checking his tweets about mailin ballot, theyve never done that to china, they have never done this to iran, they have never done this to turkey. When they put out these false tweets basically targeting individuals and people, we saw that in iran with us israel saying that israel should be taken off the map. But twitter never fact checked them. So theres a serious problem here, and i think President Trump is right. We need to look into this, we need a White House Panel to investigate this, and we need to hold twitter and facebook accountable. Because theyre actually preferencing the democrats in the upcoming election are. Lou this is, this is an outrage, an absolute outrage. The president has every right to be furious. And, by the way, im not a fan of further investigation. This is on its faces what it is. I thought donald trump jr. Got it exactly right with a tweet. This is what he, he tweeted so is twitter going to start censor oring and Fact Checking all the numerous blue check mark journalists and leftwing activists who falsely claimed that the Trump Campaign colluded with the russian government and that real donald trump a puppet of putin for the past four years . Sara, your thoughts. Right. Well, donald trump jr. Is 100 right. How many stories have been out there that basically call out this is supposedly from the new york timeses, Washington Post suppose
