Ramaswamy talks about his controversial (for some) accusations that the government, the 9/11 Commission, and the FBI lied about certain events, leading to demands for accountability.

"It's not okay for the government to lie to us. In a democracy, it's poison and it corrodes the system that we revere: democracy.

But his main themes were on the public's dwindling trust in the government, the need for hard truths, and historical shifts in power dynamics.

"We're going to have a reckoning. I think that reckoning is likely going to be 2024."

Our 'establishments' refuse to give us the truth, Ramaswamy says "we can handle the truth," extending the analogy to a new American Revolution:

"we, the people live in a moment where the government believes that citizens of this nation cannot be trusted with the truth."

Ramaswamy then tells Carlson:

"I think there is a bipartisan consensus in this country right now that we the people, we can't handle the truth,"

"It's like Jack Nicholson at the end of movie, right? You can't handle the truth, you need me on that wall. My view, my basic view in this campaign is no, we don't need you on that wall and yes, we can handle the truth."
