Watch: ‘Dishonest’ Chris Cuomo gets ‘absolutely bodied’ by Dave Smith in ivermectin debate when libertarian brings receipts

Comedian and libertarian political commentator Dave Smith teed off on former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo during a wide-ranging debate, including on lockdowns, ivermectin, and the conviction of former President Donald Trump.

The two political commentators squared off during a debate hosted by Patrick Bet-David – the founder of Valuetainment.

Referencing the attacks on Joe Rogan for using ivermectin, Cuomo claimed that he “didn’t like what people did” to the prolific podcaster.

Smith immediately fired back, “You did it. No, no. You did.”

The audience laughed, and Cuomo responded, “No. No.”

After Smith rebutted him, Cuomo challenged him to “find the clips.”

You’re being so dishonest right now.

Within seconds, there was a video clip from CNN recorded during the pandemic, in which Cuomo is seen shaming the use of ivermectin right after Rogan infamously admitted that he was taking the anti-parasitic drug approved for humans in 1987 that has “saved lives and improved the welfare of billions of people.”

The clip shows both Cuomo and Don Lemon when they were still employed at CNN.

Lemon began by saying, “People who are getting, injecting, drugs for animals and horses – oh my God.”

Cuomo interjected, “And people telling them to! What person – you know you talk about cancel culture and who to shame – ivermectin? A dewormer? Really? … they need to be shamed. They need to be called out and shamed, brother.”

The audience booed Cuomo after the video clip played.

Smith blasted Cuomo, “You’re being so dishonest right now.”

Smith questioned Cuomo, “So you’re taking a dewormer right now? Do you want to apologize for that?”

Last month, Cuomo confessed that he had long COVID and it could have been caused by the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine.

As Blaze News previously reported, Cuomo told Bet-David of COVID-19 vaccine side effects, “Do I now believe that we have data to support the fact that there are thousands of people who have adverse effects, that are not getting attention let alone treatment? Yes, and I fault government for that. I do not fault myself for telling people at the time what the government was giving us as best practices.”

The News Nation anchor also admitted that he was taking ivermectin.

“I’ll tell you something else that’s going to get you a lot of hits. I am taking a … regular dose, you know whatever, of ivermectin. Ivermectin was a boogeyman early on in COVID,” Cuomo said. “That was wrong. We were given bad information about ivermectin. The real question is, ‘Why?'”

Cuomo continued, “Everyone is going to say, ‘Joe Rogan was right.’ No, Joe Rogan was saying — yeah, he was right, but that’s not what matters. What matters is the entire clinical community knew that ivermectin couldn’t hurt you. They knew it, Patrick. I know they knew it. How do I know it?” Because now I am doing nothing but talking to these clinicians who at the time were overwhelmed by COVID, and they weren’t saying anything, not that they were hiding anything. But it’s cheap, it’s not owned by anybody, and it’s used as anti-microbial, anti-viral in all these different ways and has been for a long time.”

Smith recounted when CNN’s chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta appeared on “The Joe Rogan Experience” in October 2021. When pressed by Rogan, Gupta admitted that his fellow CNN colleagues “shouldn’t have said” that he was taking horse dewormer.

There were several occasions when CNN personalities accused Rogan of taking “horse dewormer.”

Top X social media platform creator Collin Rugg posted a video of the exchange with the caption: “Chris Cuomo gets absolutely bodied after he says he ‘didn’t like what people did to Joe Rogan’ when he came out in support of ivermectin.”

Smith demanded Cuomo to apologize to Rogan.

Regarding Cuomo’s flip-flop on ivermectin use after attacking Rogan for taking it, Smith told the former CNN anchor, “You were smearing him [Rogan] for saying that. You literally said, ‘He’s taking horse dewormer. He should be ashamed of himself.’ You pleaded with your audience to not take it [ivermectin].”

Smith scolded Cuomo, “How do you not apologize to Joe Rogan?”

The crowd also chimed in to demand Cuomo apologize to Rogan.

Smith – a member of the Mises Caucus of the Libertarian Party – also nailed Cuomo for claiming that the draconian lockdowns during the pandemic were not totalitarian.

“When you’re waking up every morning to watch your TV to find out from your governor what you’re allowed to do today, including am I allowed to go to work, am I allowed to have a funeral for my father, am I allowed to see my family, am I allowed to step outside without a cover on my face – there is one word and one word only for that, and that is totalitarianism,” Smith declared.

Smith called out Cuomo and the rest of the legacy media for falsely accusing Trump of colluding with Russia.

“You guys were repeating mindlessly every day that there was some giant conspiracy with Trump and Russia and leading the entire country to believe that our election had been stolen by a hostile foreign power,” Smith stated.

Smith said of “Russiagate,” “The whole thing was complete nonsense just to frame Donald Trump so he couldn’t get his agenda through, and CNN ran with it every single day – unquestioning.”

Smith and Cuomo did agree that Trump should not have been convicted of felony counts in his hush money trial.

“This was a misdemeanor that was trumped up to felonies. To call it 34 counts is laughable because the 34 counts are different checks that were signed to pay back Cohen,” Cuomo proclaimed. “This district attorney has no problem knocking down significant felonies to misdemeanors – he did it 70% of the time.”

He added, “You don’t make this case against anybody else,” and that is brought “for the wrong reasons.”

Cuomo said the conviction “emboldens his case that everything that happens in America is corrupt,” which he described as a “tragedy.”

On Saturday, Smith tweeted about the debate: “The response to last night’s debate with Cuomo has been unbelievable. I know I was speaking for a lot of people and I’m glad so many of you thought I did a good job.”

Don Lemon gets called out hard for still shilling for vaccines and COVID regulations

Don Lemon has stayed true to his colors and is still shilling for the media and the government — despite losing his coveted gig on CNN.

He made this clear in an interview on “The Full Send Podcast,” where the Nelk boys confronted him with some basic facts about the government’s disastrous COVID policies.

“There’s a certain set of people that no matter what evidence is put in front of them as it pertains to COVID or as it pertains to the border or the economy or anything else — they will still run defense for the system,” Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” explains, before showing the embarrassing clip.

One of the Nelk boys accused Lemon of being like Cuomo, very pro- “take the thing, do it,” about vaccines.

“This whole argument about vaccines is a little weird to me because I think people are Monday-morning quarterbacking the idea of vaccines,” Lemon responded sheepishly, adding he thought that “instead of being selfish” people should have been “doing what was best for our fellow man.”

“So, I think that the people who are questioning the use of masks, even in the moment, were being a bit selfish,” Lemon said, before repeating the commonly heard line that “there was no medical evidence that ivermectin could help save people from getting COVID, or prevent them from getting COVID, or had any effect on the COVID-19 vaccine.”

“I believe in medicine, I believe in science, and I believe that my government is looking out for me and trying to do the best for me,” Lemon continued.

“Shouldn’t other people have the right to not take the vaccine and not forced to put something in their body that they didn’t want?” the other Nelk boy asks, adding, “It seemed at the time like media was really shaming people if you didn’t get a vaccine, like it’s your fault.”

“Well, I don’t know if the media was shaming people,” Lemon responded. “If you don’t get the vaccine, then don’t get the vaccine, but don’t expect to be able to do and go places,” he continued before being cut off.

“Like make a living, right?” one of the boys asked.

“I’ve watched that clip a couple of times, and it gets worse each time. I mean, he is on his knees blowing a system that literally fired him,” Rubin comments, shocked.

‘I believe my government is looking out for me’: Don Lemon defends COVID response, online censorship in Nelk Boys interview

Former network host Don Lemon was pressed on his positions about the government’s COVID-19 response, online censorship, and the views he expressed as a host on CNN.

Lemon sat down with personalities Kyle Forgeard and Aaron “Steiny” Steinberg from the Nelk Boys, as well as entrepreneur Bradley Martyn for the “Full Send Podcast” that saw tougher questioning than audiences would see on most network news broadcasts.

Lemon faced significant pushback from Martyn and Forgeard regarding his stances on the COVID-19 vaccines and the spread of online “misinformation.”

The former CNN anchor’s position was that he predominantly believed that the information given by vaccine advocates, health officials, and the government was generally in good faith and had the goal of saving “the most amount of people.”

“Did they make mistakes along the way? Absolutely, but that’s life,” Lemon said. The 58-year-old explained that he thought not getting vaccinated or not wearing a mask was “selfish” and that citizens should have been doing what was best for their fellow man.

‘I paid $2,000 for a fake [vaccine card].’

Martyn pushed back, however.

“The COVID vaccine is here now, take it,” Martyn summarized the overarching narrative as. “Listening to [Chris] Cuomo speak and what other people are talking about now, they knew there was other methods that people could have done, Ivermectin was one of them.”

“I believe in medicine, I believe in science, and I believe my government is looking out for me and trying to do the best for me,” Lemon replied. “Scientists, doctors … if virologists are telling me that this vaccine is safe, and Ivermectin has no effect on the virus, then I’m going to take the vaccine.”

Lemon then disagreed with Forgeard when he said the media was shaming people if they weren’t vaccinated and that deaths were then the fault of the unvaccinated.

“I think the people were being selfish about that. If you don’t want to get the vaccine then don’t get the vaccine, but don’t be expected to be able to do and go places where people are who got the vaccine.”

“And work, and make a living, right?” Martyn interjected. “Couldn’t you have seen that the whole legacy media was saying, ‘You need this,’ and to a lot of people it was like, ‘Is this just about protecting and helping people or this about Big Pharma and big business?'”

Lemon called that a “conspiracy theory” and again cited that the virus was “something nobody knew about, something that was new and that was killing people.”

After Forgeard and Martyn revealed they did not get vaccinated, and Lemon did, Forgeard noted that he obtained a fake vaccine card.

“I paid $2,000 for a fake one.”

‘Me, personally, it’s not for me to decide, but I think there is an inherent advantage when someone plays in a women’s sport and perhaps they are stronger.’

Limiting ‘misinformation’

“This was an usual time in the entire world, we don’t live in that time now, and things have eased up,” Lemon said about online censorship, excusing the removal of opinions he said would have been misinformation.

Martyn pointed out that while Lemon was able to go on network television shows and talk about his opinion on the matter, content creators, himself included, literally could not go online and express countering opinions.

“Some people knew, but they were silenced,” Martyn continued. “I can accept [that it’s over] but … it’s about the people whose lives were ruined, you can’t just go, ‘It’s over sorry, it’s different now.'”

Lemon then tried to compare ruined lives from COVID lockdowns to those who were put in jail for smoking pot.

“I think if people are spreading misinformation and lies … I believe in freedom of speech, but I think if people are actively spreading misinformation that’s going to hurt people and if it’s going to put their lives or safety and their health at risk then I think it should be corrected,” he added.

“It’s just so impossible to find misinformation at such an early stage of a virus, too. Who decides what’s misinformation?” Forgeard countered.

Transgender theory

The topic shifted to transgender athletes playing against women, with Steinberg noting that women had a “spectacular year” in sports, only for the South Carolina women’s basketball coach to state that men should be able to play in women’s basketball.

“Do you think biological men should be able to play in women’s sports?” Forgeard asked Lemon directly.

“I think that it should be studied, but I do think …” Lemon replied.

“What are you studying?” Forgeard asked.

“Physically, men are stronger and faster than women. So, I have questions about it myself. Me, personally, it’s not for me to decide, but I think there is an inherent advantage when someone plays in a women’s sport and perhaps they are stronger,” Lemon clarified.

The answer mirrored many of the former CNN host’s replies, which were appeals to authority whether it referred to doctors, health officials, educators, and more.

The latter was used when he was asked about children being taught gender theory in school.

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with kids having knowledge,” he said about children, citing that he was not an educator, so it wasn’t his place to say.

Forgeard asked if that included telling children “they can be whatever gender they want.” Lemon compared it to being told that he could be Superman when he was a child.

“We all had very similar things told to us,” Lemon retorted.

“Career-wise, not gender-wise,” Forgeard clarified.

“I don’t believe as a whole that kids are being indoctrinated into anything,” Lemon said, citing that he went to Catholic school and still was gay.

The podcasters also asked Lemon to clarify what LGBTQ+ stood for and why gays are grouped in with transgender people. Forgeard remarked Lemon’s explanation was easier to understand than that of a transgender person.

“I think the gay people are better spokesman for the trans people, because the trans people are not that good at defending their own issues.”

“It takes a gay person to come in and really defend them logically.”
