My understanding is that Newman's machine was battery-powered. (at 3:20 in OPs video)

The machine purportedly recharged the battery and provided additional power above and beyond the power generated to recharge the battery.

This would mean the power used to run it was less than the power output, and this would make it a perpetual motion machine.

The National Bureau of Standards (NBS), now known as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), by request of the patent office, tested the device for several months and got negative results. In every case presented in the NBS report, the output power was less than power input from the battery pack, and therefore the efficiency was less than 100%. The court therefore upheld the rejection of the patent application.

Newman argued that he had been mistreated by the patent office, and tried to have his motor legalized directly by the US Congress. He obtained a hearing on 30 July 1986 in front of several senators, but he was unsuccessful. During the hearing, Newman refused to have the machine tested by independent experts, and senator John Glenn pointed out that his supposedly independent expert actually had a prior business relationship with him.

The case is now cited in the USPTO's Manual of Patent Examining Procedure as an example of an "inoperative" invention that can't have any utility, concretely as a perpetual motion machine.

It's possible that wikipedia is publishing false information. It's possible the government is lying.

I am just sharing information so people see both sides and not just one. I would love for the free energy machine to exist and for the government to not suppress inventions.

The real fact of the matter is that the United States is sitting on the world's largest natural gas deposit. There is such an enormous quantity and volume that it will be a long time before it runs out.

We could have dirt-cheap energy with the signature of a pen, right now.
