- 0:56Speaker 2: Presidential promise to put the law before a family.
- 1:00Speaker 3: I said I abide by the jury decision.
- 1:01Speaker 4: I will do that.
- 1:03Speaker 5: And I will not pardon him.
- 1:04Speaker 6: Letting the world know that he will not wipe away
- 1:07Speaker 6: the decision of 12 of his son's peers.
- 1:09Speaker 2: Was asked directly. And he has said he wouldn't pardon
- 1:13Speaker 2: his son if he gets convicted. Let's wait and see
- 1:15Speaker 2: what happens if he loses. Yeah, but I mean, but
- 1:18Speaker 2: he said it.
- 1:18Speaker 1: He's going to get pardoned by his dad.
- 1:20Speaker 2: There's no question about that. The president has ruled out
- 1:22Speaker 2: pardoning his son.
- 1:24Speaker 7: Major commitment from the president, accepting the outcome of the
- 1:28Speaker 7: trial and also pledging not to pardon his son.
- 1:32Speaker 1: Yesterday evening, Joe Biden pardoned his son, Hunter Biden. And
- 1:38Speaker 1: it wasn't just any old pardon. First of all, as
- 1:41Speaker 1: all those soundbites exemplified, Joe Biden repeated that he would
- 1:46Speaker 1: not pardon his son.
- 1:47Speaker 2: The media hooked onto that.
- 1:48Speaker 1: They said, no, Joe Biden said he would never pardon
- 1:50Speaker 1: his son. And then he has pardoned his son. And
- 1:53Speaker 1: the pardon covers the entire period of the 2014 CIA
- 1:57Speaker 1: coup in Ukraine when Hunter was appointed to the board
- 2:01Speaker 1: of Burisma the infamous Ukrainian gas company. This means that
- 2:05Speaker 1: Hunter could not be investigated for any criminal activity during
- 2:10Speaker 1: this timeframe. So after telling the public that he would
- 2:13Speaker 1: not pardon Hunter, Joe Biden has not only pardoned his
- 2:16Speaker 1: son for his convicted gun crimes, but also every single
- 2:21Speaker 1: federal crime that Hunter Biden committed over the last decade,
- 2:26Speaker 1: including several years during Joe Biden's vice presidency and his
- 2:31Speaker 1: entire presidency. And what this is, is an admission of guilt.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Hunter has been selling his father's influence to foreign nations.
- 2:41Speaker 1: We know that if he hadn't been, Hunter wouldn't need
- 2:44Speaker 1: a pardon or at the most, he'd need just a
- 2:48Speaker 1: pardon for his convicted gun charges.
- 2:50Speaker 2: But we know it's more than that.
- 2:52Speaker 1: We know that it has to be because of how
- 2:53Speaker 1: expansive this pardon is. Now, Hunter, um, And the entire
- 3:01Speaker 1: Biden family is actually guilty here. It's not just the
- 3:05Speaker 1: one crackhead son. And they all need to be investigated
- 3:10Speaker 1: to be justly prosecuted by the Trump DOJ for selling
- 3:14Speaker 1: out America for foreign cash. Obviously, we can't prosecute Hunter
- 3:17Speaker 1: Biden now, but the rest of the family is involved.
- 3:20Speaker 2: And there's some talk that Biden.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Is actually, Michael was saying this this morning, he said,
- 3:23Speaker 1: you know, out of all the things that Joe Biden
- 3:25Speaker 1: has done, this is the least, I think, surprising or
- 3:30Speaker 1: What did you.
- 3:30Speaker 2: How did you phrase it, Michael? Least evil, he said.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Like, of course he would pardon his son. That's what
- 3:37Speaker 1: a good dad would do. He's trying to protect his son.
- 3:41Speaker 1: And I get that argument, but also Joe Biden is
- 3:46Speaker 1: not a good dad because it's obvious that Biden pardoned
- 3:49Speaker 1: Hunter out of self-interest. Yes, Hunter is a crack addict
- 3:55Speaker 1: who reportedly paid for underage hookers and abandoned his daughter,
- 3:59Speaker 1: Navy Biden. But Joe Biden is the reason that Hunter
- 4:01Speaker 1: was involved in this influence peddling scandal in the first place.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Joe Biden, we all know, is the big guy. Hunter
- 4:08Speaker 1: complained about this very issue in communications revealed by the
- 4:13Speaker 1: laptop from hell.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Hunter did all the dirty.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Work for the entire Biden family. They all have corruption problems,
- 4:21Speaker 1: but Hunter was basically the guy who did all the
- 4:25Speaker 1: dirty work. He was the guy who got his hands
- 4:28Speaker 1: dirty while the rest of the Biden family sort of
- 4:31Speaker 1: came off clean, Michael says, in more ways than one.
- 4:35Speaker 1: And I just can't believe that this story has come
- 4:37Speaker 1: so full circle. The contents of the laptop were real.
- 4:42Speaker 1: The media and the FBI told us it was Russian
- 4:46Speaker 1: disinformation in order to interfere in the 2020 election, even
- 4:49Speaker 1: though the FBI had authenticated the laptop nearly a full
- 4:53Speaker 1: year prior. Trump was impeached for even suggesting the Bidens
- 4:57Speaker 1: were involved in corrupt Ukraine business deals. And now we
- 5:00Speaker 1: know Trump's suspicions were correct, and Joe Biden has admitted
- 5:04Speaker 1: it himself with this pardon.
- 5:07Speaker 2: And luckily, there may actually.
- 5:09Speaker 1: Be some justice. And we're going to get to that
- 5:12Speaker 1: in just a second. But first, we're going to take
- 5:14Speaker 1: a quick break.
- 5:14Speaker 7: The FBI's footprint has gotten so freaking big. And the
- 5:17Speaker 7: biggest problem the FBI has had has come out of
- 5:19Speaker 7: its intel shops. I'd break that component out of it.
- 5:22Speaker 7: I'd shut down the FBI Hoover building on day one
- 5:25Speaker 7: and reopening the next day as a museum of the
- 5:27Speaker 7: deep state. And I'd take the 7,000 employees that work
- 5:30Speaker 7: in that building and send them across America to chase
- 5:32Speaker 7: down criminals. Go be cops. You're cops. Go be cops.
- 5:36Speaker 7: Go chase down murderers. and drug dealers and violent offenders.
- 5:39Speaker 7: What do you need 7,000 people there for? Same thing
- 5:41Speaker 7: with DOJ. What are all these people doing here? Looking
- 5:44Speaker 7: for their next government promotion, looking for their next fancy
- 5:46Speaker 7: government title, looking for their parachute out of government. So
- 5:48Speaker 7: while you're bringing in the right people, you also have
- 5:50Speaker 7: to shrink government.
- 5:52Speaker 1: You just heard Kash Patel, the new FBI director nominee
- 5:56Speaker 1: who has promised to shut down the DC FBI building
- 6:00Speaker 1: and turn it into a museum of the deep state,
- 6:02Speaker 1: effectively decentralizing the entire agency, forcing the FBI to do
- 6:07Speaker 1: its actual job instead of politically targeting thought criminals like pro-lifers,
- 6:12Speaker 1: traditional Catholics, January Sixers, parents at school board meetings. I
- 6:16Speaker 1: could not be more pumped about this pic. It really
- 6:20Speaker 1: could not get any better than this. Was it Thanksgiving
- 6:23Speaker 1: that I mentioned this at the dinner table, Mikey, or
- 6:26Speaker 1: was that the day after? Oh, no, no. I think
- 6:28Speaker 1: it was the day after Thanksgiving. But we were sitting
- 6:30Speaker 1: at the dinner table. We visited Michael's parents over the break.
- 6:33Speaker 1: And Michael and his dad were going back and forth.
- 6:36Speaker 1: They have a lot of little fun political debates. And
- 6:40Speaker 1: I interrupted. I was like, guys, Kash Patel was just nominated.
- 6:44Speaker 1: And everybody stopped what they were doing. And we're so
- 6:47Speaker 1: excited about this. This is truly an incredible pick. It
- 6:52Speaker 1: does not get better than this. A little rundown on Kash.
- 6:55Speaker 1: He was a public defender in Miami-Dade County. until he
- 6:57Speaker 1: joined the DOJ under the Obama admin, where he served
- 7:00Speaker 1: as a terrorism prosecutor in the National Security Division. He
- 7:03Speaker 1: was a senior aide to Congressman Devin Nunes and became
- 7:06Speaker 1: a central figure in exposing the Russia collusion hoax via
- 7:09Speaker 1: the Nunes memo. Now, everyone on MSNBC and CNN are
- 7:13Speaker 1: insisting that somehow Kash Patel isn't qualified to be FBI director,
- 7:17Speaker 1: which is pretty funny because Kash is a former U.S. official,
- 7:21Speaker 1: federal prosecutor, and private attorney, just like former FBI directors
- 7:25Speaker 1: Christopher Wray, James Comey, and Robert Mueller. So the entire
- 7:30Speaker 1: argument is pretty bunk. The regime wants to discredit Kash
- 7:33Speaker 1: because the deep state fears Kash. It has nothing to
- 7:36Speaker 1: do with qualifications because he has them. According to Jack Posobiec,
- 7:41Speaker 1: FBI brass are calling West Wing contacts and literally crying
- 7:46Speaker 1: per a White House official. Here is former deputy FBI
- 7:50Speaker 1: director and Russia hoaxer Andrew McCabe freaking out on CNN
- 7:55Speaker 1: over Kash Patel's appointment.
- 7:58Speaker 8: Andrew, I just want to start first with you and
- 8:00Speaker 8: just get your reaction to this news tonight.
- 8:04Speaker 3: Yeah, well, it's a terrible development for the men and
- 8:08Speaker 3: women of the FBI and also for the nation that
- 8:11Speaker 3: depends on a highly functioning, professional, independent Federal Bureau of Investigation.
- 8:18Speaker 3: The fact that Kash Patel is profoundly unqualified for this
- 8:24Speaker 3: job is not even like a matter for debate. So
- 8:28Speaker 3: I think what we should really be thinking about right
- 8:31Speaker 3: now is what does this signal to in terms of
- 8:34Speaker 3: Donald Trump's intent for the FBI. The installation or the nomination,
- 8:39Speaker 3: I guess we should say at this point, of Kash
- 8:41Speaker 3: Patel's FBI director can only possibly be a plan to disrupt,
- 8:47Speaker 3: to dismantle, to distract the FBI.
- 8:52Speaker 2: That's right.
- 8:53Speaker 1: He hit the nail on the head. I really view
- 8:56Speaker 1: that entire soundbite as Kash Patel's greatest endorsement because Andrew
- 9:00Speaker 1: McCabe is a man who tried to stage a coup.
- 9:02Speaker 1: He lied under oath. He likened mainstream conservatives to Islamic terrorists.
- 9:07Speaker 1: If he doesn't like Kash, that means Kash is the
- 9:10Speaker 1: man for the job.
- 9:12Speaker 2: And I hate all this.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Pearl clutching about Kash Patel supposedly politicizing the FBI as
- 9:17Speaker 1: if Andrew McCabe didn't collude with other members of the
- 9:21Speaker 1: deep state to circumvent the will of the people and
- 9:23Speaker 1: delegitimize and unseat a duly elected president because McCabe and
- 9:28Speaker 1: his buddies disagreed with Trump politically. In chat, how does
- 9:32Speaker 1: Andrew McCabe identify? You guys take a guess. Is he
- 9:35Speaker 1: a Democrat or is he a Republican? Which one do
- 9:38Speaker 1: you think he is? Democrat or Republican? Andrew McCabe is
- 9:42Speaker 1: a lifelong registered Republican. There are snakes in the grass.
- 9:49Speaker 1: Case in point, here is GOP Senator Mike Rounds throwing
- 9:53Speaker 1: his support behind Christopher Wray, the guy who spent the
- 9:58Speaker 1: last several years weaponizing the FBI against Trump and half
- 10:01Speaker 1: the country.
- 10:03Speaker 8: When we meet with him behind closed doors, I've had
- 10:06Speaker 8: no objections to the way that he's handled himself. And
- 10:09Speaker 8: so I don't have any complaints about the way that
- 10:10Speaker 8: he's done his job right now. And once again, the
- 10:14Speaker 8: president has the right to make nominations, but normally these
- 10:18Speaker 8: are for a 10-year term. We'll see what his process
- 10:21Speaker 8: is and whether he actually makes that nomination. And then
- 10:24Speaker 8: if he does, just as with anybody who is nominated
- 10:28Speaker 8: for one of these positions, once they've been nominated by
- 10:31Speaker 8: the president, then the president gets the benefit of the
- 10:35Speaker 8: doubt on the nomination. But we still go through a process,
- 10:38Speaker 8: and that process includes advice and consent, which for the
- 10:42Speaker 8: Senate means advice or consent sometimes.
- 10:47Speaker 1: I don't know about you guys, maybe I'm reading between
- 10:49Speaker 1: the lines here, but it kind of sounded like Mike
- 10:50Speaker 1: Rounds doesn't want Cash Patel to be director. Like he
- 10:54Speaker 1: prefers the current criminal director. And after what happened with
- 10:58Speaker 1: Matt Gaetz, we know the Senate is going to be
- 11:00Speaker 1: problematic with any of the good picks here. And even
- 11:03Speaker 1: if Cash gets confirmed, closing the D.C. headquarters, being effective
- 11:07Speaker 1: in any way would involve again, the D.C. headquarters, reallocating
- 11:12Speaker 1: resources and personnel, and that requires funding and approval from Congress.
- 11:16Speaker 1: So in other words, Cash can't just act alone. He's
- 11:18Speaker 1: a great guy. He has really good ideas for how
- 11:21Speaker 1: to reform this agency. But it's not just Cash Patel
- 11:26Speaker 1: that is going to be able to affect this change.
- 11:28Speaker 1: He needs cooperation from the GOP-led Congress. And unfortunately, they've
- 11:33Speaker 1: given a lot of indications, specifically in the Senate, that
- 11:36Speaker 1: they're not committed to the Trump agenda. And it's not
- 11:38Speaker 1: just members of Congress working against us. We also have
- 11:40Speaker 1: so-called conservatives like David Frum writing on Twitter that, quote,
- 11:45Speaker 1: we are headed toward a U.S. constitutional crisis vastly bigger
- 11:49Speaker 1: than Watergate. Which is funny because Frum and the entire
- 11:52Speaker 1: legacy media have spent the last few years calling the
- 11:55Speaker 1: Constitution a threat to democracy or society itself. But the
- 12:01Speaker 1: argument from some of these Republicans is that cash poses
- 12:04Speaker 1: a threat to the nation or the Constitution itself. because
- 12:09Speaker 1: Cash believes in authentic justice. Here is a soundbite that's
- 12:14Speaker 1: particularly from Cash that is, I think, particularly disturbing to
- 12:18Speaker 1: the media, the regime. Take a listen.
- 12:21Speaker 4: The one thing we will do that they never will
- 12:24Speaker 4: do is we will follow the facts and the law
- 12:26Speaker 4: and go to courts of law and correct these justices
- 12:29Speaker 4: and lawyers who have been prosecuting these cases based on
- 12:32Speaker 4: politics and actually issuing them as lawfare.
- 12:37Speaker 1: Cash is saying enough of Democrats getting a free pass
- 12:41Speaker 1: to wage lawfare.
- 12:42Speaker 2: You guys are going to be held accountable.
- 12:44Speaker 1: And the deep state and the media are losing it.
- 12:48Speaker 1: But that's not the only reason that I think the
- 12:49Speaker 1: media is losing it over cash.
- 12:51Speaker 2: I want you to take a listen to this.
- 12:54Speaker 7: I'm not saying it's not there.
- 12:55Speaker 2: Who are you going to get to get that?
- 12:58Speaker 8: For instance, who is currently holding, this is way off
- 13:02Speaker 8: the topic, but who has Jeffrey Epstein's Black Book?
- 13:06Speaker 4: FBI.
- 13:08Speaker 1: But who?
- 13:10Speaker 7: That is, I mean, there's... Oh, that's under direct control
- 13:15Speaker 7: of the director of the FBI.
- 13:16Speaker 4: Just like the manifesto.
- 13:21Speaker 1: How many very rich and very powerful people are on
- 13:25Speaker 1: that list? Could Epstein finally be exposed as a CIA
- 13:30Speaker 1: or Mossad sexual blackmail operation? It's possible that Cash could
- 13:36Speaker 1: expose a lot of very powerful people. It's probably why
- 13:42Speaker 1: former Attorney General Bill Barr said that when Trump tried
- 13:45Speaker 1: to make Cash deputy director of the FBI during his
- 13:49Speaker 1: first term, that Barr, quote, told Mark Meadows it would
- 13:53Speaker 1: happen over my dead body.
- 13:56Speaker 2: Bill Barr, of course, the.
- 13:57Speaker 1: Former Attorney General, was the man who Epstein died on
- 14:02Speaker 1: his watch, spent the last five years insisting that Epstein
- 14:06Speaker 1: killed himself. And by the way, Bill Barr's father, Donald Barr,
- 14:11Speaker 1: interestingly happened to have been Jeffrey Epstein's mentor and gave
- 14:15Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein his first job.
- 14:18Speaker 2: Donald Barr also wrote.
- 14:19Speaker 1: A space novel about a futuristic society where sexual exploitation
- 14:24Speaker 1: is institutionalized as a tool of power and control at
- 14:27Speaker 1: the behest of ruling elites. Does that sound familiar to
- 14:30Speaker 1: you guys? Does that sound a little bit similar to
- 14:33Speaker 1: perhaps what Jeffrey Epstein was doing his entire career?
- 14:37Speaker 2: Do you guys see how deep this goes?
- 14:39Speaker 1: The guy insisting, who was in charge, was the attorney
- 14:42Speaker 1: general in charge of the DOJ. Epstein dies on his
- 14:45Speaker 1: watch and then he's insisting Epstein didn't kill himself. And also,
- 14:49Speaker 1: you know, a man who, like so many others, is
- 14:53Speaker 1: fearful of the Epstein files being released. And it's not
- 14:57Speaker 1: just the Epstein list that Cash has promised to release.
- 15:00Speaker 1: He's also pledged to release the Diddy List, 9-11 files,
- 15:05Speaker 1: January 6th documents. Here's Cash discussing potential informants present on J6.
- 15:11Speaker 7: What you need to show is whether or not the
- 15:13Speaker 7: FBI and government agents were using undercover operatives and informants
- 15:17Speaker 7: on the day of January 6th, because if you can
- 15:19Speaker 7: show that, you know they've been out, hang on, but
- 15:22Speaker 7: the paperwork shows having run informants, that's a six-month buildup. Minimum.
- 15:27Speaker 4: Right.
- 15:27Speaker 2: Minimum.
- 15:27Speaker 7: It's not like they just dropped them into the Proud
- 15:29Speaker 7: Boys and said, hey, don't disrupt, please. Once you prove that,
- 15:33Speaker 7: Then you defeat the insurrection narrative with the FBI's own documentation.
- 15:37Speaker 7: Forget what the videotape shows.
- 15:39Speaker 2: He's absolutely right.
- 15:40Speaker 1: If Cash releases those documents and proves informants were present
- 15:44Speaker 1: and gets to the bottom of, say, the DNC pipe bomb,
- 15:47Speaker 1: this entire insurrection narrative crumbles. McCabe's narrative that mainstream conservatives
- 15:54Speaker 1: are domestic terrorists because of January 6th, it's over. It
- 15:58Speaker 1: falls apart even more than it already has. Personally, I'm
- 16:01Speaker 1: most eager to finally get the deets on Ray Epps.
- 16:04Speaker 7: Two pieces of information. Ray Epps was on FBI's most
- 16:09Speaker 7: wanted list one day, and the next day he was
- 16:12Speaker 7: off of the FBI's most wanted list. There are only
- 16:15Speaker 7: two ways that happens. You die, or you're informant.
- 16:21Speaker 2: How weird is it that the media obsessively.
- 16:26Speaker 1: defense, Ray Epps, a supposedly random January 6th. Shouldn't they
- 16:31Speaker 1: hate that guy? Shouldn't they want justice for this insurrectionist?
- 16:36Speaker 1: Do you guys see why the state is petrified by cash?
- 16:40Speaker 1: As federal CEO Sean Davis writes, memo to the corrupt
- 16:43Speaker 1: Stasi agents currently still employed by the FBI. Your options
- 16:47Speaker 1: right now are resigning, being fired, or being criminally investigated.
- 16:52Speaker 1: Your days of terrorizing this nation are over. Now, I
- 16:57Speaker 1: do have to switch to some not so positive news.
- 17:02Speaker 1: Trump has picked Sheriff Chad Chronister as his pick to
- 17:06Speaker 1: be the next administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration. And
- 17:09Speaker 1: Sheriff Chad is famous for jailing a pastor who dared
- 17:14Speaker 1: hold church services during COVID. Here's Chad, Sheriff Chad, proudly
- 17:19Speaker 1: announcing this arrest.
- 17:21Speaker 9: This pastor held not one, but two large services on Sunday.
- 17:27Speaker 9: one at 9.30 a.m. and another at 7 p.m. Because
- 17:32Speaker 9: of the reckless disregard of public safety and after repeated
- 17:36Speaker 9: requests and warnings, I work with our state attorney, Andrew Warren,
- 17:40Speaker 9: to obtain a warrant for unlawful assembly and violation of
- 17:45Speaker 9: public health emergency rules, both which are second-degree misdemeanors.
- 17:52Speaker 1: He's almost like proud of himself as he's shouting this out.
- 17:56Speaker 1: I mean, it's just unbelievable. And I can't believe that
- 17:58Speaker 1: this even happened in America. In a country founded as
- 18:01Speaker 1: a Christian nation with inalienable rights endowed by our creator
- 18:06Speaker 1: and a system and ethos informed by centuries of Western
- 18:08Speaker 1: Christian thought, our government jailed people for practicing their faith. Now,
- 18:14Speaker 1: there were a lot of brave sheriffs and judges and
- 18:16Speaker 1: mayors and city and county board members who recognized the
- 18:19Speaker 1: COVID tyranny as evil and chose freedom. or practice civil
- 18:23Speaker 1: disobedience in defiance of tyrannical governors. Sheriff Chad was not
- 18:28Speaker 1: one of those people. He clearly doesn't understand the concept
- 18:31Speaker 1: of the First Amendment.
- 18:32Speaker 2: Or civil liberties. Oh yeah, thank you, Michael.
- 18:41Speaker 1: Again, it is shocking to me that this happened and
- 18:44Speaker 1: that so many people like Chad went along with it
- 18:47Speaker 1: and actually enforced it. And if you think that this
- 18:54Speaker 1: is bad, this jailing of a pastor is bad from Chad,
- 18:58Speaker 1: it actually gets worse. The more that I learn about him,
- 19:01Speaker 1: the more concerned that I get. He expanded his office's
- 19:04Speaker 1: DEI programs, reportedly had his department participate in a gay pride,
- 19:09Speaker 1: in various gay pride events, gave money to the DNC
- 19:12Speaker 1: and Barack Obama. He is weak on crime, released a
- 19:15Speaker 1: criminal with 35 priors who then went on to murder someone,
- 19:19Speaker 1: instructed deputies to stand down during the BLM rioting, which
- 19:22Speaker 1: was destroying property, supports red flag gun confiscation, and has
- 19:27Speaker 1: used that policy many times.
- 19:29Speaker 2: In other words, he sucks.
- 19:31Speaker 1: So this is a truly troubling pick. There is really
- 19:34Speaker 1: no room for weak men in this admin, men who
- 19:37Speaker 1: can't stand up to pressure and do what's right. Sheriff
- 19:40Speaker 1: Chad is a beta and a tyrant.
- 19:42Speaker 2: And I say this because I want to be real
- 19:44Speaker 2: with you guys.
- 19:44Speaker 1: We aren't just cheerleaders on this show here.
- 19:46Speaker 2: We're going to be honest and objective.
- 19:48Speaker 1: What Chad has done specifically jailing a pastor for shepherding
- 19:52Speaker 1: his flock, for practicing his First Amendment rights, tells me
- 19:57Speaker 1: that Sheriff Chad has low moral character and is weak-willed.
- 20:02Speaker 1: And it concerns me that he's about to be given
- 20:04Speaker 1: vastly more power and responsibility in this incoming admin. And
- 20:08Speaker 1: that's because the stakes are just too high. Over the break,
- 20:11Speaker 1: we learned that Melania and Barron Trump were debanked. Why?
- 20:16Speaker 2: Because they're related to Trump.
- 20:18Speaker 1: After January 6th, Trump himself was shut out of a
- 20:21Speaker 1: Florida bank. So was MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell. JP Morgan, Venmo,
- 20:26Speaker 1: Bank of America, and PayPal all shared personal financial information
- 20:30Speaker 1: on January 6th with the federal government without the consent
- 20:34Speaker 1: of the protesters.
- 20:36Speaker 2: And let's be clear, big banks.
- 20:39Speaker 1: are government-dependent entities due to all of the bailouts and
- 20:43Speaker 1: federal regulations that they receive. Favorable regulations they receive. The
- 20:47Speaker 1: pressure on these institutions to debank individuals like Trump or
- 20:51Speaker 1: Mike Lindell and share personal information about January Sixers stems
- 20:55Speaker 1: from this entanglement.
- 20:57Speaker 2: The distinction between the government and the big banks has
- 20:59Speaker 2: become increasingly blurred.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Just like social media, the financial sector isn't autonomous and
- 21:04Speaker 1: individual privacy and protections for regular people is totally gone.
- 21:09Speaker 1: And debanking is terrifying. It is an obvious tool for
- 21:13Speaker 1: controlling and silencing political dissent. Debanking means you're effectively excluded
- 21:17Speaker 1: from participating in the economy. No livelihood, no ability to
- 21:21Speaker 1: engage in business. Now, the Trumps are fine. Trump's a billionaire.
- 21:25Speaker 1: The rest of us, though, it is a dangerous, dangerous precedent.
- 21:29Speaker 1: We need explicit laws against debanking based on political beliefs.
- 21:33Speaker 1: We already have it against racial discrimination. I don't know
- 21:36Speaker 1: why this isn't a given. And this incoming government needs
- 21:39Speaker 1: to make it clear that the special privileges are over.
- 21:42Speaker 1: That means deregulating and ending the bailouts so the big
- 21:45Speaker 1: banks have to actually compete with the little ones. Now,
- 21:48Speaker 1: speaking of Barron Trump, I think the Kamala campaign wishes
- 21:52Speaker 1: Barron would have consulted them this election cycle. Here is
- 21:56Speaker 1: Democrat mega-donor John Morgan saying that Barron Trump is smarter
- 22:01Speaker 1: than Kamala Harris' entire campaign.
- 22:03Speaker 5: It turns out that Barron Trump who looks like a
- 22:08Speaker 5: runway model, was telling his father, you need to go
- 22:12Speaker 5: on podcasts. You need to go on Joe Rogan. He
- 22:16Speaker 5: was three hours late to a rally because he was
- 22:19Speaker 5: doing Joe Rogan because that was so important. So, Barron Trump.
- 22:25Speaker 5: Is a lot smarter than everybody in the Harris. They
- 22:29Speaker 5: said they didn't go on Joe Rogan, the progressives around her.
- 22:32Speaker 5: You heard what Carmel said. The progressives didn't want to
- 22:35Speaker 5: go on Joe Rogan. Look, if I'm running, I'm going
- 22:38Speaker 5: on Joe Rogan. I'm living on Fox. That's how you
- 22:42Speaker 5: change minds. They played hide the ball. They lost badly.
- 22:46Speaker 5: She should go away and never, ever come back. She
- 22:49Speaker 5: spent almost $ 2 billion. They're raising money this week to
- 22:55Speaker 5: pay off the debt. If you can't run your campaign,
- 22:59Speaker 5: you damn sure can't run the country.
- 23:03Speaker 2: That is for sure.
- 23:04Speaker 1: And I actually think that Kamala was never going to
- 23:08Speaker 1: go on Joe Rogan, even if she had a great
- 23:11Speaker 1: advisor like Barron Trump. because she wasn't smart enough to
- 23:14Speaker 1: have an unscripted, unedited interview. But even if she was,
- 23:18Speaker 1: Democrats have lost their touch. Do you remember how George Clooney,
- 23:23Speaker 1: reportedly at the request of Obama, threw Biden under the
- 23:26Speaker 1: bus and wrote this op-ed trying to get him to
- 23:28Speaker 1: drop out of the race because of his debate performance?
- 23:32Speaker 1: And this is after Clooney had hosted Biden at a
- 23:36Speaker 1: fundraiser in his home just three weeks prior. So the
- 23:39Speaker 1: mental and physical decline was fine three weeks prior. Then
- 23:43Speaker 1: he gets a call from Obama, allegedly, and he says, okay,
- 23:46Speaker 1: now Biden needs to step down, and he threw all
- 23:48Speaker 1: of his support behind Kamala eventually.
- 23:52Speaker 2: Clooney is now.
- 23:52Speaker 1: Reportedly very mad, mad that Obama made him and other
- 23:56Speaker 1: celebrities look stupid after swapping out Joe for Kamala and
- 24:00Speaker 1: losing so badly. And Obama, of course, is nowhere to
- 24:02Speaker 1: be found today. He's in hiding, I presume, because he
- 24:05Speaker 1: orchestrated this entire thing. And the celebrities like Clooney, who
- 24:08Speaker 1: threw their support behind Kamala, all have egg on their faces.
- 24:12Speaker 1: And what's interesting is that Obama used to be the
- 24:14Speaker 1: coolest guy out there. So was Clooney and Beyonce and
- 24:18Speaker 1: Oprah and Julia Roberts. But their support of Kamala meant nothing.
- 24:24Speaker 2: The cachet is gone.
- 24:26Speaker 1: The traditional kingmakers in society don't have the same power
- 24:29Speaker 1: that they used to. By the way, another one of
- 24:32Speaker 1: those people who, kingmakers who used to have a ton
- 24:35Speaker 1: of power, Ellen DeGeneres, the woman who got her show
- 24:38Speaker 1: canceled for allegedly treating her staff like dogs. Ellen has
- 24:42Speaker 1: officially escaped the UK to, I guess, no longer be
- 24:46Speaker 1: in Trump's America. Trump derangement, you guys know the drill.
- 24:50Speaker 1: And there's just one problem with this escape that Ellen
- 24:52Speaker 1: Jenner has made, because following days of torrential rain and winds,
- 24:56Speaker 1: Ellen's UK mansion has reportedly flooded. And I think that's
- 25:01Speaker 1: some good karma there. Well, bad karma, I guess, but
- 25:04Speaker 1: she deserves it. And can I just say, what a
- 25:07Speaker 1: terrible place to escape to. The UK is totally tyrannical.
- 25:11Speaker 1: They literally handcuff and imprison people for tweeting off-color things.
- 25:15Speaker 2: Absolutely insane.
- 25:16Speaker 1: And most normal non-celebrities don't want tyranny anymore. The reign
- 25:21Speaker 1: of terror, at least in America, is culturally over. No
- 25:26Speaker 1: more safe spaces, cancelings, trigger warnings, race Marxism, the destruction
- 25:31Speaker 1: of national pride and identity. People aren't happy with it.
- 25:34Speaker 1: People are rejecting it en masse. The cultural pendulum has swung,
- 25:39Speaker 1: and Ellen and Obama and George Clooney, they're angry, confused,
- 25:43Speaker 1: and out of touch. And this isn't just a political.
- 25:47Speaker 2: Swing to the right.
- 25:48Speaker 1: Body image in America is even changing. Do you remember
- 25:52Speaker 1: how the Kardashians mainstreamed over-the-top plastic surgery and these Brazilian
- 25:57Speaker 1: butt lifts?
- 25:59Speaker 2: According to the Daily Wire, plastic.
- 26:01Speaker 1: Surgeons across the country have said that in 2024, They're
- 26:05Speaker 1: noticing a trend by Americans to have a more athletic
- 26:08Speaker 1: look by skipping the fillers in their lips, deflating their breasts,
- 26:13Speaker 1: and shrinking their butts in an effort to de-Kardashian their bodies.
- 26:18Speaker 2: And it's not just surgery.
- 26:20Speaker 1: Yes, thank you, Mikey. It did look kind of clownish before.
- 26:22Speaker 1: I mean, I totally understand it. And it's not just surgery.
- 26:26Speaker 1: You see that women are wearing makeup differently. Faces are
- 26:31Speaker 1: clean and fresh again. Gone are the days of the
- 26:33Speaker 1: 2016 Kylie Jenner makeup era, which mirrored drag queens more
- 26:39Speaker 1: than it did authentic women. Fake isn't cool anymore. The
- 26:44Speaker 1: celebrity class itself isn't cool anymore. And today, the real
- 26:48Speaker 1: celebrities aren't who you think. The internet has made 17-year-olds
- 26:53Speaker 1: who make silly dance videos with their friends in their
- 26:57Speaker 1: parents' basement more famous than Leonardo DiCaprio among young people.
- 27:02Speaker 1: It's now impossible to pressure the legions of big and
- 27:05Speaker 1: small-time internet celebrities into one political voice in the way
- 27:09Speaker 1: that the establishment previously has done with.
- 27:12Speaker 2: The Hollywood elites.
- 27:13Speaker 1: And it's not just that this new class of internet
- 27:16Speaker 1: celebrity isn't controllable. It's that the consumers, we the people,
- 27:21Speaker 1: prefer it that way. In the age of AI and
- 27:24Speaker 1: a lying media and a tyrannical government which claims to
- 27:28Speaker 1: look out for us, people are craving authenticity. We desire rawness.
- 27:34Speaker 1: That's why so many are attracted to Trump. Do you
- 27:37Speaker 1: guys remember how we treated the media in his first term?
- 27:39Speaker 2: This is a reminder.
- 27:40Speaker 10: Between you people, don't talk to me that way. You're
- 27:44Speaker 10: just a lightweight. Don't talk to me that way. I'm
- 27:47Speaker 10: the president of the United States. Don't ever talk to
- 27:49Speaker 10: the president that way. Well, I'll give you voters.
- 27:55Speaker 2: I will give you voter suppression.
- 27:57Speaker 10: You just have to sit down, please.
- 27:59Speaker 6: Sit down.
- 28:00Speaker 2: I didn't call you.
- 28:01Speaker 10: I didn't call you. I didn't call you. Okay, question? Yeah,
- 28:04Speaker 10: go ahead.
- 28:05Speaker 5: Sure.
- 28:07Speaker 10: She's shocked that I picked her. It's like in a
- 28:10Speaker 10: state of shock.
- 28:12Speaker 2: I'm not thinking, Mr.
- 28:12Speaker 1: President.
- 28:13Speaker 10: That's okay.
- 28:13Speaker 2: I know you're not thinking.
- 28:14Speaker 1: You never do. I'm sorry?
- 28:16Speaker 2: No, go ahead.
- 28:17Speaker 10: Go ahead. How many cases were in the United States
- 28:20Speaker 10: when I did my ban? How many people had died
- 28:23Speaker 10: in the United States?
- 28:25Speaker 3: Keep your voice down, please.
- 28:26Speaker 10: Keep your voice down.
- 28:27Speaker 2: Do you want them to rein in Robert Mueller?
- 28:32Speaker 10: What a stupid question that is. What a stupid question.
- 28:37Speaker 2: But I watch you a lot.
- 28:38Speaker 10: You ask a lot of stupid questions.
- 28:41Speaker 1: There is something so honest about the way that Trump
- 28:44Speaker 1: speaks to the people, to the media, to foreign leaders. And,
- 28:49Speaker 1: you know, the legacy media deserves to be treated that way.
- 28:51Speaker 1: Do you guys remember this, Jim?
- 28:54Speaker 6: The sharing of biased and false news has become all
- 28:57Speaker 6: too common on social media.
- 28:59Speaker 2: Unfortunately, some members.
- 29:01Speaker 8: Of the media use their platforms to push their own
- 29:04Speaker 8: personal bias and agenda to control.
- 29:07Speaker 3: Exactly what people think.
- 29:08Speaker 9: And this is extremely dangerous to our democracy.
- 29:10Speaker 1: Terrifying. Anytime the legacy media tries to convince you that
- 29:23Speaker 1: they're one of us, just think of that clip. They're bots,
- 29:28Speaker 1: mouthpieces for the permanent state. And something really wonderful has happened.
- 29:33Speaker 2: In the midst of all this corruption. And that's realization.
- 29:38Speaker 1: We know Joe Biden through Hunter sold out America to
- 29:40Speaker 1: foreign oligarchs for cash. We know the state and the
- 29:44Speaker 1: media conspired to bury the truth, dismissing Hunter's laptop, verified
- 29:48Speaker 1: by the FBI nearly a year earlier as Russian disinformation.
- 29:52Speaker 1: We know the deep state tried to stage a coup
- 29:54Speaker 1: against Trump with the Russia collusion hoax. And we know
- 29:57Speaker 1: Criminal feds like Andrew McCabe are weaponizing fear and propaganda
- 30:01Speaker 1: about Kash Patel and others to protect themselves. We've been
- 30:07Speaker 1: systematically lied to about Epstein, JFK, January 6th, and more.
- 30:12Speaker 1: But this corruption is unraveling. The relentless war on Trump
- 30:17Speaker 1: wasn't just about him. It was an assault on the
- 30:19Speaker 1: millions who defy the ruling class. Over the past eight years,
- 30:22Speaker 1: the state has waged a proxy war on the American
- 30:25Speaker 1: people with its persecution of Trump. They've tried everything they could,
- 30:29Speaker 1: even attempting to kill him with gross negligence at the least.
- 30:34Speaker 2: And despite all that, the deep state lost.
- 30:38Speaker 1: And now the people are demanding transparency and justice. Unlike
- 30:43Speaker 1: the Democrats' weaponization of justice for political gain, we seek
- 30:46Speaker 1: authentic accountability and a system restored to integrity. We want
- 30:49Speaker 1: to believe in our system. We want to know that
- 30:52Speaker 1: it's not just a house of cards, that there's real
- 30:54Speaker 1: integrity and real people who seek justice to make the
- 30:58Speaker 1: world a better place with conviction and honesty, who actually
- 31:02Speaker 1: care about the constitutions and the mores that we were
- 31:04Speaker 1: founded on.
- 31:05Speaker 2: It's why people love Dan Bongino and Joe Rogan. It's
- 31:08Speaker 2: the realness.
- 31:09Speaker 1: It's also why people are turning their backs on George
- 31:12Speaker 1: Clooney's politics and Kim Kardashian's fake butt. Hollow posturing and
- 31:17Speaker 1: manufactured narratives and imagery isn't going to cut it anymore.
- 31:21Speaker 1: And I'll admit that Trump's Avengers team isn't perfect with
- 31:24Speaker 1: individuals like Chad Chronister, But overall, there's a passion and
- 31:28Speaker 1: sincerity from people like RFK Jr., Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard,
- 31:32Speaker 1: Kash Patel, certainly my dad, Sean Duffy too. America's been
- 31:37Speaker 1: thirsting for this. A disconnected internet age. The surveillance state,
- 31:43Speaker 1: shadow government, the propaganda press, the plastic surgery, and the nauseating,
- 31:46Speaker 1: self-important celebrity class has brought us here. And from this
- 31:50Speaker 1: desperate populist desire for the truth and transparency, we may
- 31:54Speaker 1: actually root out the rot. That's all I have for
- 31:57Speaker 1: you guys today. I really appreciate you being here after
- 32:00Speaker 1: a nice long break. If you're listening on Apple or Spotify,
- 32:03Speaker 1: make sure to rate and review this podcast. Michael and I,
- 32:07Speaker 1: by the way, we spent, how long did we spend
- 32:08Speaker 1: at the airport yesterday, Michael? 12 hours stranded in O'Hare yesterday.
- 32:13Speaker 1: I had to prepare the show on the airplane and
- 32:17Speaker 1: sitting in the airport.
- 32:18Speaker 2: It was not fun.
- 32:20Speaker 1: And I called my dad and I said, this kind
- 32:22Speaker 1: of thing is not going to happen when you're a
- 32:23Speaker 1: secretary of DOT, right?
- 32:25Speaker 2: And then he said, absolutely not.
- 32:26Speaker 1: So you guys can come and complain to Sean Duffy
- 32:29Speaker 1: if you ever miss a flight or have cancellations or
- 32:33Speaker 1: whatever in the future.
- 32:35Speaker 2: But it was not a lot of fun yesterday preparing
- 32:38Speaker 2: this show.
- 32:38Speaker 1: So I really appreciate you guys bearing with me and Mikey,
- 32:42Speaker 1: running on, not a lot of sleep, but hopefully we'll
- 32:44Speaker 1: catch up by tomorrow. I'll see you all then. The
- 32:47Speaker 1: Dan Bongino Show.
- 32:48Speaker 6: I think a lot of people are underestimating the Trump
- 32:50Speaker 6: effect in this midterm. You've heard it yourself. Act like
- 32:54Speaker 6: I'm on the ballot. Why is he saying that? You
- 32:57Speaker 6: think he doesn't know what he's doing? That is the
- 33:00Speaker 6: X factor. Folks, elections are a math issue. That is it.
- 33:04Speaker 6: This is not a football game. If you vote, we
- 33:08Speaker 6: will win. It is not complicated.
- 33:10Speaker 1: The Dan Bongino Show. Follow and listen on
- 33:13Speaker 2: Your favorite platform.
