Vivek Ramaswamy Says Pervasive Censorship, Suppression of COVID Truth, Election Interference Caused January 6 Protest
Like most of the 2024 Republican presidential candidates, Vivek Ramaswamy was interviewed by Tucker Carlson Friday in Iowa. The candidate, who’s had a fairly intellectual approach to his speeches thus far, knocked it out of the park in this interview on the topic of January 6, clearly articulating the cumulative effect of tyrannical behavior by the media and government officials and censorship and suppression of true speech throughout the COVID pandemic and the 2020 election on the nation’s psyche, culminating in an election that was “fortified,” in the words of those on the left, that people were similarly prohibited from talking about.
In his remarks about January 6 Ramasawamy stopped short of saying the words “election interference” or disputing the results, but did make a point about the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story.
He started with a reference to Donald Trump, the man the January 6 committee blames and still would like to hold criminally responsible for what happened.
I haven’t talked about this much in the campaign. I’ll be very honest. You want to know what caused January 6? There’s such a temptation to say that there’s one man whose name is unspeakable we can’t —
Tucker broke in with a bit of humor, saying, “First of all, it’s QAnon. It’s QAnon.”
Ramaswamy continued:
You want to know what caused January 6, is pervasive censorship in this country in the lead-up to January 6. You tell people in this country they cannot speak, that is when they scream. You tell people they cannot scream, that is when they tear things down.
And so the reality is, we were told that you could not question where the virus came from, when we all know it came from a lab in Wuhan, which now they admit. We were told that you could not send a private message to someone on the eve of an election that Hunter Biden’s laptop story was actually a true story worth considering before an election. You were systematically suppressed.
So this is — think about this. You’re told you had to be locked down, had to take a vaccine that was mandated and forced down your throat, stay locked down in your home while Antifa and BLM roam and burn the streets of this country. So that’s the lead-up of one full year of telling people you have to shut up, sit down, and do as you’re told. And then you tell them, okay, there’s an election where you didn’t get the information that you needed, such as the Hunter Biden laptop story being real and suppressed. That’s what caused January 6, is a cycle of censorship in this country. And until we look ourselves in the mirror and admit truth on that, we will not move forward as a country.
I think that’s the real cause. And I’m sorry to say this, Tucker, but I think until we reckon with that reality, I worry that that that is the beginning of — it’s a friendly parley compared to what’s to come unless we step up and speak truth, restore integrity, and actually lead us to who we are as a people rather than sweeping the truth under the rug.
Ramaswamy has some great points there, especially the point that there must be an acknowledgement of all of the horrible things that were done in the name of “public health” or “election fortification” or “equity” in this country since 2020, and the parts of it that are still happening must stop before we can move forward.
