They call themselves guardians of justice. But justice, like any currency, can be counterfeited. And they have mastered the mint. Winter isn't coming. It's already here. And it wears a robe. Okay, good. You leave me wanting Jerry for more. Today is Friday, January 23, 2026. Welcome to the end of the week. And you nearly made it through January. What an unbelievable January it has been. And we have a free for all Friday today. Let's go. Lots of good news. We're just gonna be spitting fire and slinging the good news. We do in fact have lots of good news. We try and end the week on a positive note and this is a good week for that. There's been a lot of darkness. In fact, just about five days ago, last Sunday, darkness itself, evil itself, stormed a church in Minneapolis. Many said, and many of you. I'm looking at you, looking at you in the chat. Where's my chat? I'm looking at you in the chat. Where's my chat? Klein, Klein, the chat. Klein, apologize. Klein, apologize. Klein, apologize. That's. You guys really good at that, Clyde. You guys, this is like the Johnny Carson show. What up? Chat? What chat? Let's take questions from the chat. Today, Trisha McLaughlin will be on from the Department of Homeland Security. She's going to be debunking some of the bigger lies that were told this week, including the lie that the dhs, DOJ and FBI would do nothing about the goblins who stormed a Christian church and attacked Christians and their children while praying. We have incredible updates for you directly from the church. In fact, the pastor of the church just texted me right now and man said that they had a church meeting last night. Church was jam packed. It's called Cities Church in Minneapolis. We've been able to raise $50,000, I think more for the church. I haven't checked in on the gifts and go, goodness gracious, Klein, you decline is just like Klein AI these days. We used to say it's alx AI, but now it's like Klein and alx AI. What an incredible timeline we are living in. And the best timeline that you can live in is a timeline where you're just like you, where you practice gratitude. This is going to be like my 2026 effort for my life is practicing gratitude. Gratitude for our team, gratitude for the chat, gratitude for this channel, gratitude for this audience, gratitude for living in the greatest country on earth, having all these children, breathing sweet fresh air every single morning in a free state that I live in. And in this wonderful country. We're just like gonna practice gratitude. So this is our gratitude. The church has $53,000. We're gonna bump that up today personally. Klein. We're gonna get them to their hundred thousand dollar mark. This is for security for the church. This would fund a year's worth of security for this church and reinforce the building to make sure that these children never have to suffer again. This is us giving back. You can go to givesendgo.com citieschurch this is the official fundraiser authorized by the pastor himself, who isn't doing any media right now. We've asked him on the show. We'd love for him to come on and chat with you, but there are some plans to do that. You'll notice he hasn't done any interviews. He's been asked by every news company on earth to do an interview. Ladies and gentlemen, the arrests have begun. Convicted Minnesota fraudster. Now alleging that Tim Walls and Keith Ellison, who is really the dark lord of all of this. Keith Ellison is the Sith Lord in Minnesota. He is a Marxist former congressman who's the Attorney general and he was elected and the state went to hell. What happened in Minnesota, you can trace it all back to Keith Ellison. This, by the way, is why Don Lemon is not in shackles right now. We will share with you the new mug shots and some great news. Off the top again, Trish McLaughlin, DHS assistant secretary joining the program. And Congressman Greg Stube, always a favorite of the show. My name is Benny Johnson and this is the Benny Show. I'm seeing some quite like. I'm seeing some questions pop in. I just want to say we're going to like do free for all Friday. I want to apologize to everyone here. This is a show that you run and we are thankful and grateful to you. This is something that we need, we will be doing. It's called in the chat. We have a stinger for it and everything. But unfortunately with the insane amount of responsibility and being pulled away sometimes from the show and travel, man, we were traveling every week or this past fall into it is what it is. I'm not complaining. I'm just thankful for you and I'm thankful for you in the chat for sticking with us, for supporting us even though we have tried to be as disciplined as possible and locked in and to feed back into the fee into the loop and serve you. You know, sometimes we're imperfect in that in the chat is something we were supposed to do every show. At the very least, Klein, we can start doing it every Friday. Right? Okay. So that means we're Just going to take questions from the chat. Here's one right here. It just popped up. It just grabbed randomly. It just popped up. Here we go. From to preserve America. This would be a YouTube chat question. Is there anything that you can do to pressure the Senate Republicans to pass the SAVE Act? What can we do about activist judges? How about this? Let me ask Trisha McLaughlin for you to preserve America. I will also ask Congressman Greg Stubby for. For you to preserve America today. You will hear me ask this question today on your behalf. So that's, that's what we can do. The SAVE act is obviously the act that was premiered on this program by Chip Roy. Would you mind grabbing that clip, Alex? Chip Roy came on our show in order to preserve the nation. He chose this program. He was too busy yesterday. He apologized yesterday. Chip couldn't join the show. He was on the floor arguing and yelling at people. And it's actually a viral clip from him yesterday. It's pretty great. He came on this program to announce the SAVE act and it went thermonuclear viral. Elon Musk shared it. Elon Musk had been posting about it. Here's how it goes. Every single democracy in the world requires ID to vote. The vast majority of them require in person voting. The vast majority of them. There is no democracy that says you don't need an ID and that you don't need to vote in person. That doesn't exist except for our nation that has been run by imbeciles. This the greatest country on Earth, the country that should have the most secure elections on Earth, because it matters more here than anywhere else, doesn't have these simple safeguards. Why? What's gone so wrong? Well, it's doubt. Senate Republicans who refuse to get rid of the filibuster. So we could just pass the SAVE act, which would require ID to vote, which would require you to vote in person, would get rid of electronic voting, would get you the kind of system that you have. All throughout Europe, all throughout Latin America, there are Second World countries that have far more secure voting than we do. I don't like France. France is able to count all of their votes in one night. I don't like the results sometimes. Emmanuel Macron still technically in power, but his party's lost all of their elections. Emmanuel Macron's done. I think that the Nationalists are going to win in France nonetheless. There are not major complications like we have in this country. And so thank you. To preserve America. I just want to like, I just want to do just a Massive shout out to the chat.

This.
A
We endeavor on this program to have the single greatest activist base, to have the most lively chat. That's why the comments are on screen for virtually the entire show except for interviews, because sometimes it covered the inter. The person who's being interviewed, it covers their face depending on where their shot is. Army Dylan joined this week and her, you know, her shot was like over here. And so her face would have been right in the chat. Anyway, whatever you're into, maybe you like that. The point is that we love you and we want to preserve this nation for you and with you. So you're part of this battle. We're going to take questions from the chat today. I know I'm asking for a lot of stuff here. Klein, would you mind grabbing, uh. I know that Danny or Alex would have it. My nuclear fact check against PolitiFact. You know, PolitiFact decided to fact check me on a extremely viral video that we posted this weekend. There it is, Klein. Thank you. You would scroll down if we could play the audio on this video please, for just a moment. Yep. This went. This went thermonuclear. You can see it's done. Millions of views. It did 40,000 reposts, 108,000 likes. 3.7 thousand comments. Okay, this went really viral. This is probably the most viral video on all of X. This past Friday is when I posted it. What was it? Well, I found some toilets that a bunch of people registered to in California. Here we go. Yo, what's up, guys? We're outside of a very important place here in California. You'll see it's just home to a porta John and a giant empty park parking lot. But inside of this empty parking lot is something really important in the state of California. You can see here we have registered voters, 26 registered voters for this exact location. 100 Sunset Avenue in Venice. 26 registered voters right here. According to the registrar and the secretary of state, 26 people registered to a quarter john. There you go. Okay, so you get the point, right? And you. We could probably go back to California, Klein, and like find this. We didn't go there to uncover voter fraud. We went there to uncover homeless industrial complex fraud, which. Stay tuned on that. We're. We're fine tuning our edit on that. Anyway, this is true. Everything I said there in that video is true. Politifact rated it false. Hmm. Why would a rate it false? You will. You're not going to believe this. PolitiFact rated it false because as they say, in their fact check. And please scroll up to my commentary on what they say in their fact check is the Secretary of state of California allows anyone to register from anywhere. Look at this. This I'm reading to you directly from the PolitiFact article. They said the Secretary of State's website, in the cases in which the voters have no home address, said they can register. Just describe where you live. They can describe cross streets or park addresses. This is from the liberal fact check liberal Apparatchik propaganda outlet PolitiFact fact check of my video where they said my video was false because in California, any person without an ID can register from literally a toilet. They just confirmed what I said was true, you idiots. Don't you understand? This is what I'm trying to show you. That that's fraudulent. You can't have a secure election if any person can register from any toilet in the middle of an empty parking lot and then vote from there. You know, the fact check goes on to confirm that there are registered voters at that toilet. They did. They did the work. And they're like, well, actually there are a lot of registered voters at the toilet. But, like, it's legal. So, like, Benny's wrong. No, dude, I'm right. I proved that you can't run a. A fair election with a bunch of people registered at cross streets, parks, rocks, trees, toilets. What kind of a. What kind of a clown show are we running? That's what California does. They straight up said it in the fact. Go check it out for yourself. They said it in the fact check. They proved my point. Dumbasses. They're such morons. They don't realize you just proved my point. So anyway, we're gonna, like now. Now this is a little fire on my ass. I'm like, now. I'm so angry about this climb. We're going back to California. We're gonna find every freaking dog pile of dog crap that, like, we can. That they've registered every sewer everywhere they've registered a voter from. We're going to show you. We're going to show you. They say there's no fraud, you idiots. You just proved it. Anyway, they raided that false TikTok, gave us a strike. It was just like hustling. That's right. So anyway, thank you for the comment about the SAVE Act. Sorry for the rant. Do we have the SAVE act here? Do we have our clip from the SAVE act for Chip Roy? Just real quickly, is this the one that went viral? Yeah, it's got millions of views. Okay, just real Quickly, let's have Chip Roy explaining the save act here for just a second. He wasn't able to join the show. I just want to let you know, Chip premiered his legislation on our program. No, no, no.
B
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
A
This is not the one because this one's old. That's like. That's the old studio. Yeah, I think that. I think this is it. Yeah. All right. Yeah, maybe I'm. Yeah. Or maybe it's the pause act. Well, maybe I'm getting them mixed up. Either way, I just want to say thank you for the question. The SAVE act needs to be passed by the Senate. I'm furious about this. Destroy the filibuster, save the Republic. I'm there. I'm in. I'm all in. Let's do it. Every senator we get on the show, we'll ask in your honor. Okay. Sorry for the long rant, but you really, like. Since they fact checked me on voter fraud yesterday. Dude, that pissed me off so much, we nuked him, by the way. That tweets blowing up now. There's like, a bunch of people that are, like, commenting on it. This is how you win. You fight back. So fighting back, you got the save act, the pause act. Well, both of them are important. Pause act stops all immigration to America. Massive and critical issue. No, yeah. They're different, though. I mean, we need both. We need both. The pause act. Stop all immigration to America. Yeah, we're full. America's full. All right, ladies and gentlemen. Yeah, I got a lot, you know, got. Got a little bit of. Got a little bit of what my grandfather would call piss and vinegar this morning because I was pissed. I was pissed off. I just can't believe they're still running this game where they just tell you something that's obviously true, they tell you it's false, and then in the fact check, they prove that what you said was true. It's so Orwellian. Yeah. Makes me angry. But we have the energy to fight the communists. Cuz we sleep on a Helix Sleep matrix.

Do we have the mug shots? So beautiful. Give me those mug shots. There we go. Both of those. Both those videos are just beautiful. Look at that. Okay, we got. Look at them.
B
Ah.
A
Not so. Not so slap happy now, are you, that you got some cuffs slapped on you? And what I mean by cuffs, I mean they had to double cuff this one. No, keep going, keep going. Yeah, it's the other one. Keep going. There you go. Oh, my goodness gracious. Yo, human Twinkie here. This is pretty rough. Pretty. Not so gangster. Look at how gangster she was when she was arrested. Look at this, yo. That's right. Yeah. Yeah, you real trap. You're real trap, girl. Mm. Mm. Yeah. Jasmine Crockett's gonna buy your album. She was so gangster. Now look what happens. Look at this. Yeah, not so gangster anymore. Dude. You look like Pee Wee Herman. You look like an. You look like a dirty eraser. You look weird, man. What's that neck? What's going on there? That's strange. This is what it's designed to do. It's designed to break people like this. By the way, do we have that arrest video? They had to slap two pairs of handcuffs on this one to get her in. It's so funny. Gotta ask Trisha McLaughlin about this. Yeah, guys, I know. We got it. We. I did a whole short on it yesterday. You just go grab it in the shorts chat. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. They had to slap two pairs of handcuffs on this beauty in order to get her in the clank. Look at her go. All right, come on, man. Look at this, look at this. Oh, you're gonna love this. Oh, uncomfortable, are you? Huh? Okay, yeah. Maybe you should have paid more attention to the Maha movement. Look at that pause. You can't hit me with a fart noise like that you can't do it. I got a little kid, so that's like peak comedy right now. Peak comedy is a fart noise. It always has been, always will be. Look at that. Two pairs of cuffs. And they threw the pink cuffs on this feminist. Oh, man, what a timeline. We call it the sacred timeline. Dan Bongino is up and talking about something that deserves to be talked about. And there's a lot of people that said there'd never be any arrests. There's a lot of people that said that we'd never have anything done inside of the FBI. Well, lo and behold, the FBI is out with some remarkable statistics that should make everyone incredibly happy right now that there's. Well, no more murders in the country. What's that about? Get a load of this. From far left wing Axios. US murder rate hits the lowest level since 1900. Oh, okay. Since Teddy Roosevelt was president. Got it. Can we get back to that? That's awesome. Can we get some Teddy Roosevelt? Maximalism, nationalism, empire building. Once again, look at this. The lowest murder rate since like the golden era of the 1950s. Look at that. You see the dip like the 1950s. All the, all everyone came home from the war, wanted a peaceful society. We got it. Then they started importing mass criminal aliens from the third world. That didn't help. And now the murder rate has plummeted because they are throwing bad guys in prison and deporting them. Dude, what happens when you deport all the rapists and murderers? Wow, it's a miracle. I thought orange man bad. Actually, it's. They gotta get the orange jump. You gotta get more orange jumpsuit. We actually have an under incarceration problem in the country. My sister in law is visiting right now. She works in prison system and she like the stories that I have just heard over the last couple days right now of like what life is like inside of that prison system. How there is actually no punishment. There's no punishment for these people. It's like adult daycare. It's like adult, like you just sit there. The prisoners just sit there all day eating seed oils on iPads. That's it. That's what prison is. Prison is not Shawshank Redemption. It sure as hell ain't Les Miserables where everyone's doing hard time hard labor. No, we have an under incarceration problem. And we also don't make prison harsh enough. Prisoners need to work. They need to pay back their debt to society.
B
That's right.
A
All right, all right, all right. Producers are telling me we got to keep rolling. All right. What, you know, whatever. Okay, Greg. Greg Stubby. Greg Stube agrees with me. Ladies and gentlemen, uh, Dan Bongino doing a. Doing a lap here, bragging about this. He deserves to. This is his first hit back on Fox News. Uh, we support Dan, we support the work that he, that they've done. We thought it would be a nice little button up on the arrest from yesterday. Okay, these are good numbers. This is also what happens when you blow up drug boats too. This is what happens when you blow up gang members and you blow up the cartels. Let's go. I want people to know something. You told me privately when you did go in that you are likely there for one year just to try and get things on track, and then you did not have a desire to stay there a long time. I want people to know that. Yeah, I mean, I wanted to come in there. It took. I figured it was going to take about a year to reorganize, get some accountability back, get the refocus from what they were doing. You know, I say when I get in there. There were two FBI, Sean. There was one that had been fully weaponized and trained to focus on all the wrong things. Then you had the other guys, you know, the door kickers, the guys who were out there breaking up violent gangs, chasing terrorists. The thing was finding who was part of what group. So, you know, we had to find, investigate, and then take action on a lot of this. That wasn't easy. I mean, no one comes forward and admits, you know, hey, I was part of the weaponized prior regime. But once we got everything refocused and we had the president's directive to go forth and just get these bad guys off the street, you know, it was, it was go time. And when you combine that with this focus on securing the border, it shouldn't be a surprise to the American people that the violent crime rate just fell to. I saw the murder rate is the lowest it's been since 1900. You know, that's, that's. It's unprecedented. I mean, by definition, there's no modern precedent for that. And we did this. It was not complicated. Sean Cash and I figured out very early on Broken Windows policing. If it could work in New York City with Rudy Giuliani, it could work nationally. Long story short, about 70 to 80% of violent street crime is committed by 0.5% of the population. You go and get these dirtbags and these mutts off the street, these pieces of garbage. Use you FAP warrants. Vickers. RICO crime Gang statutes, any federal statute we could dig up, trust me, we used it. We were very creative with how we use this stuff. We got those agents out there rolling and they were more than happy to go do it. When they picked these guys off the street, they, you know what, A lot of you don't know murderers out there, you know, because there's not that many. So when you pick them off the street, that's what happened. And the president was all about it from day one. You know, we saw the fewest overall number of killings nationwide since 1900. You got five out of the top 10 most wanted. That's more than Biden got in four years. The number of overall arrests increasing by, you know what? A couple things. Dan Bongino is a shiny man. He's a shiny man. His client was like, he's shiny. He is shiny. I've spoken with Dan quite a few times since he left the FBI. Spoke with Dan while he was at the FBI. Boy, howdy, does this guy have stories to tell. Holy guacamole, is Dan Bongino going to have a hell of a return. We're excited for Dan. He's been a little bit of a mentor to us. We like Dan a lot. You know, we try and play nice. We do our best to play nice. We want to win. We want the winning coalition to march forward and save the nation. Thank you for asking about the SAVE Act. That's exactly what the show is built on. And what are we saving the nation from? I want to cover this really quickly and we're going to talk about it with Congressman. Convicted Minnesota fraudster says Tim Walls and Keith Ellison were totally aware of all the fraud. The whistleblower who's in jail says that Tim. Tim Walls and Keith Ellison were getting paid, baby. Convicted Minnesota fraudster alleges Walls and Ellison were aware of widespread fraud and they took a cut. Minnesota woman convicted of one of the state's largest fraud schemes alleges in a jailhouse interview that Tim Walls and Attorney General Ellison were aware of the widespread fraud and federal prosecution stepped in. Amy Bachelor, former head of the nonprofit Vegan Our Future, spoke to Fox News from the Shelburne County Jail in Minnesota, claiming that officials knew of the. Officials continued approving and paying claims after concerns were raised a potential fraud. Bach alleged that state approved program sponsors were responsible for monitoring the claims. But officials repeatedly failed to investigate or stop suspicious companies even after she flagged them. Goodness gracious. I honestly believe Keith Ellison and Governor Walz need to be held accountable. There needs to be an investigation if they weren't aware, that's concerning. She told FOX News. I believe the governor's office, Keith Ellison, were aware. All right, let's go ahead and do the. Let's go ahead and do the news clip. I don't want to take away from the congressman. Just very quickly here. What there's a FOX News exclusive, so I want to play it for you. Let's go. And a FOX News alert.
C
Also in Minnesota, the convicted ringleader of one of the state's biggest fraud schemes is spotted speaking to FOX News from behind bars.
A
Now, she believes that the scam was.
C
No surprise to local Democratic leaders.
A
And she's naming names. She spoke to Alexis McAdams.
C
Hi, Alexis.
A
Hey, Dana. Yeah, so everywhere you look in the.
C
State of Minnesota, right, there seems to.
A
Be another fraud scam.
C
So this one involves Amy Bach.
A
She's a Minnesota woman convicted of fraud for taking taxpayer money that was meant to feed hungry kids. But listen to this. Bock tells me the real issue here.
C
Is the state of Minnesota, which she.
A
Says kept giving scammers your taxpayer money.
C
Even after they were flagged as fraudsters.
A
I have to believe that the governor's.
C
Office and Keith Ellison's office were aware of this. They've said they were involved in helping the FBI. They've said they were made aware, but apparently I'm scary, so they couldn't do anything. So Bach ran this nonprofit called Feeding Our Future.
A
You might have heard of it.
C
It was one of dozens and convicted in this $250 million scam.
A
You can see her mug. Great. Good. Please continue the focus on Minnesota. J.D. vance was there yesterday. Feeding Our Future is just the tip of the iceberg. A reminder that Ilhan Omar has a direct connection to that organization. She literally worked there. She passed legislation to ensure that they could get unlimited, infinite money from the feds. She's the one who passed the MEALS Act. Ilhan Omar. And then her friends started scamming under the Meals Act.

Yeah, I shaved the beard, man. I wanted to look like Benny, bro.
A
I have, I grew up.
B
I lost. People say I look 20 years younger. So I lost. I lost a few years without.
A
Whoa. I don't know, man. I don't know. We're gonna take a vote in the chat. We're gonna take a vote.
B
Yeah, I think I would love that because producers. Are you gonna grow it back? Are you not gonna grow it back? Are you gonna stay clean shaven? You should do it. Many viewers.
A
You should do it. Klein. Just do it. This is. Klein has a vote here. It goes like this. Yeah, yeah, just. He has a satchel bone. Klein says no. You know. Yeah, yeah. That's too bad. Yeah.
B
So you say bring the beard back?
A
Is that what he's saying? Yeah, he's saying, bring client. Saying bring the beer back chat, saying it looks good. Okay, we'll see. We'll give you a. Yeah, yeah.
B
See what your viewers say. We did a poll a couple years ago, and it was like, 65 Pro beard, but that is. That's the Twitterverse.
A
Well, you don't want to look too much like Sparkle Beach Ken Gavin Newsom. You know what I mean? Like, and so he's getting roasted right now in. In Davos. He wandered on stage. I don't know if you saw any of this.
B
How does a guy like that even get an invite to something like that? He's not a world leader. He's.
A
He was kept out of, like, his speaking gig because, like, Trump. Trump's team shut him out of the buildings. You see, that they should have.
B
He's. He's a governor. He's not a world leader.
A
Yeah, that's right. Okay, so tell me. So tell me about. I mean, listen, like, you're on a number of committees, obviously, that have sort of an overview of everything that's going on at Davos, like, you know, intel and military background, Greenland. I mean, a lot of this stuff. What, like, what. What is the. What is the chessboard right now, Congressman? Like, it looks like America is firmly in control and empire building again. It's kind of awesome.
B
Well, I mean, it's all President Trump, you know, he says, we're. We're gonna, you know, negotiate with them. And then he puts tariffs on them and says, hey, you guys don't want to negotiate with us? All right, we're going to put 25 tariffs on all the EU nations, and we're going to put it on Denmark. And suddenly there's this huge deal because they don't want to get tariff because our economy is so much bigger than theirs, and they import, obviously, into our country, and they don't want to lose all of that. We're talking about a very important strategic location. Greenland for the United States, for the Golden Dome. The President's been very open about that. We obviously do not want China and Russia operating in our hemisphere. He's been very open and honest about that. And. And look, we need to have the ability to operate and have bases there and do the type of things we need to do to ensure that the Golden Dome, when it's built, is successful to protect our country. And so whatever we need to do to do that and mission accomplished, I. I think we need to do that. And suddenly, all of a sudden, there's a framework in place because Trump put out this, hey, we're going to tariff you if you don't work with us on this. There was never a plan, at least to my knowledge, of, like, invading Greenland and the left loses their mind, files impeachment articles. There's, there was literally a resolution filed to not allow the President to take military action in Greenland. So ridiculous. When he negotiated a deal, there's a framework that he, he announced has been put in place. We don't have the details of that yet, but it sounds like it's going to be. We are going to have the opportunity to operate bases in strategic places in Greenland to be able to protect our homeland. That's all we wanted in the first place. And it took leadership from President Trump to get it done.
A
So what you're saying is that President Trump just followed the art of the deal like the exact same thing that he's been doing for the last 40 years since he wrote the damn book.
B
Yeah, 100%. And what strikes me is, you know, you see Macron and the French sending troops to Greenland. Like, I would love to see the United States military up against French troops in Greenland, because that would not last very long. It would be a very small skirmish. But it's just interesting how world leaders like Macron try to buff up their chest to the President and then, lo and behold, there's a deal that's cut and he looks like an idiot for trying to push back on something that we need strategically. And we don't care about what Macron and the French want. We need to make sure that our, our hemisphere is, and the continental United States is secure from attack from our enemies. And Greenland is a strategic part of that. And we have a President who's willing to negotiate and to, to say things that is going to put people at the negotiating table to get done what we need, we need done for America.
A
Yes. So, okay, zooming in now domestically, because obviously I think that there has been such a wide attention vector on wars and other conflicts throughout the Earth. And many people here in America are saying, okay, now it's time for some America first policies. However, while we were focusing on wars in Gaza or Ukraine or Greenland or potential conflicts in Taiwan, there's like a straight up insurrection going on in Minnesota. And now there's whistleblowers out saying that, like Tim Walls and Keith Ellison are in on the fraud. There's audio tapes of Keith Ellison effectively taking bribes. Keith Ellison's wife worked for the judge yesterday that refused to sign off on the Don Lemon arrest warrant. What a Cesspool in Minnesota. What do you make of it, Congressman?
B
Yeah, the level of corruption in Democratic states and quite frankly in the deep state in our country is just beyond the pale. It's taken years to try to get some of these bad actors out. You saw the weaponization of the intel community with the Russia, Russia, Russia collusion hoax when Trump first came into office. And now you're seeing the systematic defrauding of the American taxpayer of all of these different welfare programs throughout Democratic states. There's no way that the leaders, Waltz and the leaders of these states and cities didn't know that this type of behavior was going on. I, I surely hope that Pam Bondi and the DOJ is, is looking at this, and if there is any cause whatsoever to be able to charge these people for fraud, let's do it. I mean, they're obstruct. In my opinion. Waltz and the Mayor of Minneapolis are obstructing justice by not cooperating with ICE in a legal federal law enforcement function and operation. To me, that is grounds to take these people, at least remove them from their office, charge them with obstruction, something. I mean, you can't just ignore federal laws and not allow federal law enforcement officers to come into your state or your cities to operate. And then you, you, you know, add on all this fraud and all these welfare programs. Scott Besant, the other day, the Treasury Secretary was saying that he believes that 10% of our budget is fraud. The number that's like billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of dollars in fraud all across the country and all these different programs, and the majority of this fraud are in Democratic states because they dole out all these programs without looking into seeing if these people actually qualify. And Minnesota is a great example of that. And we're paying for it. Floridians are paying for all of this.
A
That's exactly right. I think that people don't understand exactly how the federal budget works. Perhaps you could educate them. They say that Minnesota or California, those are just liberal hellholes and they can light money on fire. That's not true. The vast majority of the money they're getting are federal dollars. They're our dollars from Florida.
B
Yeah. They expand Medicaid. They do all these federal programs. There's a match. So obviously the city or the state's matching some of that, but the majority of that money comes from federal taxpayers.
A
Yes.
B
I don't know the numbers. I don't have them in front of me, but I would imagine that those are. Florida is a donor state. We give more money to the federal treasury than we get back because we haven't expanded Medicaid. We don't have fraud in our systems because our entire state is run by Republicans. But in Democratic states like New York, California, and Minnesota, I can guarantee you they're a receiver state in the sense that they get more money and in federal benefits than they expend and into the treasury because of all of this fraud and all of these programs.
A
Yeah. Okay, so what's. What's to happen? Congressman, we obviously have been seeing some motion to investigate Ilhan Omar's finances. You've been pretty strong on that issue. You know, she goes from negative $65,000 net worth to $30 million.
B
I don't even understand.
A
That's wild. A couple of years. Just a couple of years. Well, we've done some investigation, boy. Like fake wineries. Like the. Her. Her it is. Ed is as crooked as a $3 bill, man. Like, if you go through her financial disclosures, it is. It is obvious that, like, someone is truly meddling with the numbers. But her husband worked for Keith Ellison. Congressman. Her husband works for Keith Ellison. The. Like you put up the article from yesterday. The judge that let John Don Lemon off and the DOJ is furious about this. I talked the doj. Thank you.
B
Furious. And they should appeal that decision to another court.
A
The wife of the judge worked for Keith Ellison. It's such a cesspool in Minneapolis.
B
Yeah, it's. It's. There's so much corruption. I don't know if Trump's administration, The doj, is going to have enough time in the next three years to get to the root of all of it, but we have to. The. The base wants us to. To put justice at the forefront. They saw what happened with Russia. Russia, Russia. They saw what happened with all the indictments of President Trump. And look at how many Republicans got indicted while Biden was in office by Biden's DOJ and Jack Smith and all these crazy prosecutors who were abusing the law and charging all these people. And the base is like, what's happening to all these people? Why aren't we doing that on our side? So there's a lot of frustration. The people I talk to in my district that what's happening to all these people that violated the law?
A
Just very quickly, Congressman, because you just made a perfect point there. What's happening to the people who violate the law? The Clintons violated the law this week. They refused to show up. They were held in contempt. A bipartisan vote, in fact. Like a dozen Democrats voted to hold the Clintons in contempt. Yo, we always said that like the Epstein thing would backfire and they are destroying the Clintons right now. Are you going to vote to hold them in contempt in the full vote?
B
Yeah. So the next step, so that was in the committee. The next steps on the floor that, that vote will be on the floor. They should, they should have the same fate as Navarro and Brennan. The exact same thing should happen to them. If there's already bipartisan support for it. It'll pass the House and it doesn't have to go to the Senate because it's a House, it's a House subpoena that they violated that should go direct to the doj. And I think after the House sent the Navarro contempt orders and the, the Brennan ones, I think it was like days later that they were charged. It was like seven days later that they were charged. They so I surely hope that Pam bonding the DOJ is going to quickly charge them for the exact same crime that Trump individuals were charged for just a few years ago. And Navarro and Brendan both went to prison for like six months, seven months for violating a lawful subpoena from a House committee.
A
It's the, is the, is the, the find outing.
B
We'll see if that's going to happen to Hillary and Bill.
A
It's the f aroundest and find outingist. And you know what, Congressman, I know you've been a big supporter of the president. It like it is Trump's oldest promise. I put you in jail. I put you in jail. It's his oldest promise, bro.
B
Well, and you have a legal basis to do it. I mean, not even getting into all the other corruption that they've been a part of. But you are, you are willfully violating a House subpoena. The legal precedent is just a couple of years ago when Navarro and Brennan did the same thing and went to prison for it. So both of them should go to prison for violating, willfully violating a House subpoena. But we'll, we'll see if the DOJ is going to take the case up and then you're going to have probably a corrupt leftist Judge and the D.C. circuit that's going to say, oh, this is different than Navarro and Brennan. It's going to have to get appealed up to the U.S. supreme Court. But I feel like with the precedent in place, they should end up in.
A
Prison just very quickly. Congressman, I know we have Trish McLaughlin from DHS on deck, but I have to ask you because we promised actually our chat that we would ask about the SAVE act today. Now we have Annapolina Luna this morning making, making quite a bit of news saying she's going to stop everything, she's going to shut down the government if the Senate doesn't take up the SAVE act, if the Senate stop, doesn't stop playing games and save the country by instituting voter ID and cleaning out our voter rolls and that only citizens can vote. This seems like this is what every democracy does on earth. There's not a single democracy that allows permanent mail in voting and no IDs. Can you please talk to us? Will you join, Will you, will you join with APL in this?
B
Yeah, absolutely. And I've already signed. We've already passed the bill in the House, it's sitting in the Senate. But the only way this passes the Senate is if Thune does away with the filibuster. I've been calling on him to do away with the filibuster since before the shutdown and they absolutely refused to do it. And so you're going to have a whole, I think there was like eight Republicans in the Senate that are refusing to do that. And so the SAVE Act's gonna die if they don't act. And you're not going to have voter id, you're not going to have the things that we have to have. And you're going to continue to have fraud in our elections because of that. And we have the House, the Senate and the White House and we can't get that done. And then we're going to ask voters to show up in the midterms when they're, they're like, why should we send you guys back and have the House and the Senate when you can't even ensure that our elections that we are voting in are sound and you guys are doing what we sent you up there to do. It's, it's very frustrating being a member of the House and watching the things that are going on with the Senate and them refusing. I mean, they have to work with Chuck Schumer to get anything done. Do you think Chuck Schumer is going to agree with that? Absolutely not.
A
No. It has to be done. You're right. It has to be done. Thank you, Congressman. Godspeed. God bless you everybody. Follow the Congressman right here and on directly to Trisha McLaughlin. Thank you, Congressman. Godspeed. Hi Trisha. Thank you so much. We promised the chat we'd ask about the SAVE Act. The chat really cares about saving the country. So do you. Thank you for arresting or assisting in arresting left wing agitators. And terrorists who terrorize Christians. That's like one of the most refreshing things we've seen in a long time.
C
It really is. What we saw on Sunday was just despicable. It was criminal. These three ringleaders of these church riots and St. Paul were arrested for conspiracy to undermine and, and impede others rights. These worshipers and I think you're going to see more arrests coming, Benny.
A
So Homeland Security was involved in some of these arrests. You got some great mug shots here. Really remarkable stuff. You hanging in the Louvre. I mean, frankly. Here's Homeland Security police right there arresting the individual, Kelly is his name right there. Pop it up. Thank you. There you go. Well, you should be very proud of this one, Trisha.
C
Yeah, I mean again, it shows the ice hysteria. This is all about the left wing Marxist agenda. This has nothing to do with public safety. I mean, and Benny, it comes back to why are we on the ground in Minneapolis in the first place? And it's the fact that we are arresting murders, rapists on the ground there that Tim Walls and Jacob Fry have been protecting from justice. I mean, you look at just yesterday we arrested a murder who's from Laos, another female secondary degree homicide from Laos, an individual from Guatemala who was convicted of sexual conduct against a minor. I mean these are disgusting individuals who should not be on the streets. And yet Governor Walsh and Jacob Fry won't even let us into their jails. When our law enforcement is being assaulted and they're being impeded from carrying out their legal duties. They won't even respond to calls for backup. That's a real problem. That's why we keep on calling for cooperation from state and local government. That's why J.D. vance, the vice president, was there in the first place yesterday.
A
Completely sickening. Can you give us any update on Don Lemon? We hear that Keith Ellison as his the wife of the judge that wouldn't sign off work for Keith Ellison. That Keith Ellison's name keeps coming up as being so deeply involved in so much of the fraud and so much of the obstruction there. We do know that he is committed Marxists. He does promote antifa. He's one of the most single radical, perhaps members of the Democrat Party that exists in office today. What's the what, what will happen with Don Lemon?
C
Well, Homeland Security is going to enforce the law without fear or favor. Whether you be a journalist or self proclaimed journalist or you just be another one of those rioters in St. Paul, we will make sure that justice is brought. So I'm not going to get ahead of The Department of Justice, but I know that they're looking at different options here.
A
Okay, let's talk about some fake news. Obviously, in my timeline yesterday, they found a new cause celeb, which is that ICE arrested a five year old. That was the headline. Can you debunk? Can you debunk that? Is that true, Tricia? No.
C
And I saw a lot of headlines saying that ICE used this five year old child as bait. ICE arrested and targeted this child. None of which is true. What happened was the father from Ecuador saw ICE approaching him and he fled, abandoning his own child in the cold in Minneapolis. That's when our law enforcement officers stayed with the child, comforted him. And Benny, by the way, as this is all going on, as this child's father has fled from law enforcement, which is a federal crime, there's a. There's rioters who are starting to take over and they're scaring the child. Things are spiraling out of control as they're impeding operations. So our law enforcement officers took care of the child, tried to bring them to the mother, which the mother refused to take custody of the child, which is just unbelievable on its face. Our officers, they brought the child. McDonald's played some of his favorite music, kept him warm when he was with them, and now the child is back with the father and he's at a processing facility down at Dilley.
A
I do find this repulsive that the left so often uses children as props when it serves their purpose. But. But you never heard anything about the hundreds of thousands, if not millions of abandoned children at the border. Here's just a photo from 2023 of a bunch of kids that were just dropped off in a raft and the smugglers went back into Mexico and they just. Here's just a boatload of kids and that's it, you know, no parents, nothing. Here's just a bunch of kids. No leftist cried a single tier about this, Trisha.
C
No. The humanitarian crisis that Kamala Harris and Joe Biden manufactured, those precious faces, you won't see them anywhere on cnn, anywhere on MSNBC or NBC. And you should. And the good news is, under President Trump and Secretary Noem, we have found 132,000 children who are lost under the Biden administration's mismanagement. So many of those children have been exploited, traffic, or otherwise abused. And we will continue until we find every single last one of those children.
A
Benny, that's wonderful to hear. You did make a ton of news the last time that you were on this program. Trisha, you said that Hilton declined to have ICE members stay at their properties. That Hilton has now been decommissioned, in fact, and had had their franchise revoked. Are you finding more of this? We're starting to see little bits of that pop up around. Like for instance, there was a postal worker that flipped off a member of ICE. Yesterday we published that video. We see some McDonald's saying they're not going to serve ICE and so on. Are you seeing any more of this sort of corporate sabotage to your operation?
C
We're certainly seeing discrimination against our law enforcement officers. A lot of this we're saying are rogue employees. We actually saw one of our CBP K9 on the feeding chart. It said ice out. They're targeting a poor dog. So, I mean, we are seeing this on a case by case basis and we make sure that we're in contact with those companies at large, but also those individual franchises as well. And you know when we think it's appropriate to make those issues public. When we see that there isn't cooperation or isn't retribution and ramifications for these rogue employees, we make sure that gets taken care of and the public should know about it.
A
All right, final question. I know you've got to go because you guys are going to be doing now big press conferences every single day on Minnesota. Awesome. Just really quickly, deportation numbers. Krissy Noem was out with a big fat number. Yesterday was 2.2 million self deportations. I think I'm getting that correctly. It is from memory. Can you please like project for us? Where are we headed this year with deportations, Trisha?
C
So this year we had 675,000 deportations and then 2.2 million self deportations as your memory served you correctly. So that's north of 3.1 million exits from this country. But Benny, what we're seeing with, we have a 120% increase in our workforce thanks to that one big beautiful bill. Really speeding up our recruitment and more ICE officers on the ground. But what we're also seeing is that there's this virtuous cycle. The more arrests we make, the more self deportations we have because those illegal aliens in the country are getting the message, hey, if I don't leave now on my own, I will be arrested, I will be deported and I'll never be allowed to come back to the United States.
A
It's a wonderful thing. Why, why, why, why do, why are libs like willing to risk their lives for the. I don't get it. I just, I don't get it. Maybe in closing you're A mother. You know, you're a mother. You're somebody who's, like, educated. Can you please explain this? This is like the final question. Jesse Waters asked me this the other night. I, like, I gave the best explanation I could, but, like, why? Why is this? Why are they fighting you so hard for, like, criminal aliens?
C
I think that there's ice hysteria going on, and I think that this is just really an excuse to further a leftist agenda that has nothing to do with public saf. To do with politics, demonizing law enforcement, the Trump administration. And you've seen it time and time again in Minneapolis. There's a reason why cnn. There's a reason why Tim Walls. There's a reason why the Gambit won't talk about these evil people who we've arrested and deported. And so we're trying to get the word out. Wow.dhs.gov Go to it, see who we've arrested in your community, where they're from, what crimes they've committed, and get the word out to your neighbors. This is the great work that our federal law enforcement is doing every single day.
A
Wow.dhs.gov we're pulling it up right now. We know you gotta go, Trisha. We thank you. Actually, we got it right here. Pop it up. Worst of the worst. There it is. The great Trish McLaughlin. Please follow her. She's the assistant. Her title is so impressive. She's the assistant Homeland Security Secretary and just an incredible spokesperson for a free. For a free America, free of crime. Well done. I know you're part of that. That historically low murder rate in the country. So God bless you, Trisha. Thank you.
C
God bless you. Thank you for having me.
A
It's good, it's good. It's great. Oh, man. We didn't touch on the main. The main operation, but that's okay. Like, listen, they're. They're. We talked about it yesterday. They're picking them up in Maine. They're picking them up. DHS live press conference in Minneapolis. You got Greg Bevino over here. Why don't, you know, you want to, like. You want to just, like, pop them up? Why not? We just had. We just. We just heard from Trisha. You know, I don't know if they're using a Patreon mobile device in order to broadcast this broadcast. Here's Greg Bevino. Let's. Man. Yeah. This dude. This dude. Yeah. Yeah. They're going strong. They're going hard in the paint in Minneapolis. Man, this is amazing.

He's taking some questions here. Very important in the local news media or the news media on those types of situations. Now I would call this the DSP syndrome. That's a term that I made up. I'm not a medical doctor. I'm a border patrol agent. It's called the double standard phenomena. Say that again. The DSP is the double standard phenomena. We see this quite often. The dsp. American citizens that are arrested daily here in Minneapolis. Are they separated from their children and families? Absolutely. As they should be. Criminals face consequences. Criminals face consequences. But yet that double standard does not seem to apply to illegal aliens. Why is that? Perhaps someone could. Could detail that for me because I don't quite understand all the parameters. I love this guy. The dsp. The. This dude is like central, we call him central casting. Straight out of central casting, this guy. And I love that he comes out. Here in Minneapolis. We will continue to take these bad people, bad things off the streets despite the dsp, the double standard phenomena. Despite the false narrative reporting by many news media outlets, we will continue unabated in our mission to ensure there are no more Rachel Morins separated from her five children. And I'll close by saying organization. Oh, okay. Organizations. Victims organizations. Victims rights organizations. What about the Angel Moms? That one's one that's never reported on. How many victims do you need before an organization like that pops up? It's not one or two, I can guarantee you that. Look at Mad Mothers Against Drunk Driving.
B
From back in the 80s and 90s.
A
That organization popped up because a lot of children are getting killed by drunk drivers. Well, what about the Angel Moms? Now, how many victims of illegal aliens that should not be here in the United States are causing family separation for American citizens? That's not reported on by most news media outlets. How many does it take? I'd like to ask. Excuse me, PBS or CNN or any of the other outlets. How many? How many does it take? I'd love that question. There's another phenomenon there. I would love that question answered. But the fact of the matter is we do have angel moms, a lot of them, unfortunately. It's very heartbreaking to meet them, although they're not reported on. Very much heartbreaking. But we're here to ensure there are no more angel moms. We don't want more angel moms. And that's why Marcos and I are here. U.S. border Patrol, ICE and those allied law enforcement teams. We're going to take again these criminal aliens off the streets that you see behind us and that I've shown you this morning. We're going to take them off the streets wholesale. It's on. We want this guy. All right. Thank you for your time this morning. Nice. I'll introduce Mr. Marcos. Charles Marcos. All right. We like Greg Bovino. We like this guy. Great. All right. We had a Jack Smith testimony yesterday. Actually, it was like a Jack Smith public beating in Congress yesterday. It was just absolute brutality. Jack Smith stood before the Judiciary Committee, Jim Jordan, he was on our show this week in command and charging at Jack Smith pretty savagely. But the probably the winners of the day were Chip Roy, friend of the show, and Brandon Gill, friend of the show. Let's make sure that both those men are booked for next week. Jack Smith getting absolutely savaged here. Let's read the top line from Breitbart. President Trump said that former secretary, former special counsel, correction. Jack Smith is getting decimated while testifying before Congress in a truth social post. Trump blasted Smith, who headed up both the cloud classified documents case, January 6th capital riot case. And then candidate Trump during the election campaign deranged Jack Smith is being decimated. For Congress, it was over when they discussed his past failures in unfair prosecutions. He destroyed many lives under the guise of legitimacy. Trump wrote Jack Smith is a deranged animal, shouldn't be allowed to participate in law. If he was Republican, his license would be taken away or far worse. Trump shared his hope that Attorney General Pam Bondi would be looking into Smith's actions. Hopefully Attorney general is looking at what he's done in the case against me. Okay, let's go ahead and check out some of the things that he's done. Let's pop on over. Let's do Chip Roy. Let's go savage mode with Chip Roy. And then we'll move on over to Brandon Gill. Rock and roll. Let me ask you this. Am I on this list? Did you target my records and subpoena my phone toll records? My understanding is your Records were subpoenaed by prosecutors before I became special counsel. Well, staff put this up on the screen. Thankful for the great staff who discovered the email where I learned for the first time a few weeks ago that my phone records were indeed targeted. We called AT&T and we've learned that they were given to the Department of Justice, as this email indicates. Because I've been in communication with Scott Perry, one of my colleagues here in Congress, who literally had his phone taken from him in front of his family. And of course, we've already talked about, in this document, it talks about you could be in violation of the privilege by even obtaining and possessing this information if the member objected to the disclosure. This happened four years ago in May of 2022. And I couldn't object because I didn't know. I didn't know until about three weeks ago. My question here is, was there any limits to your investigation or the investigation that preceded you, Mr. Smith? Because as egregious as a violation of separation of powers, this is as an egregious and abuse of power. It is. It's far more concerning. You are clearly targeting American citizens for merely being conservative or supporting the President because we hear a lot about members of Congress and we should because of separation of powers and the egregious abuse of power. But what we're not talking about enough, in my opinion, are the American citizens that have been targeted. Because frankly, are there any limits to the power of a special prosecutor or special counsel? So much so in your abuse of power that in the summer of 2024, the indictment involving classified documents was dismissed after determining your appointment violated the appointments Clause of the Constitution. But you continued to sign your name on court filings until the time you resigned from office in January of 2025. A federal judge just recently stated a prosecutor who continues to sign his name in court filings after a disqualification order should face disciplinary action or disbarment. That's what they're calling for to make sure that Jack Smith can't work again to be disbarred. Brandon Gill gutting Jack Smith like a fish to the gills. Here we go.
B
How many days after Kevin McCarthy was.
A
Sworn in as speaker did you subpoena his records? I don't recall. But those two things had nothing.
B
It was 16 days after becoming the.
A
Highest ranking Republican in the House of Representatives.
B
You subpoenaed his toll records. Do you agree that that might reasonably.
A
Be considered a violation of the speech or debate clause? I do not. And I want to be clear that.
B
The toll Record, you were collecting months.
A
Worth of phone data on the Republican.
B
Speaker of the House, the leader of the opposition, right after he got sworn in as speaker, all around the time of a major vote.
A
That sounds like a flagrant violation of the speech or debate clause to me.
B
And I think most people agree with me. And Speaker McCarthy had no recourse, did he?
A
Because you issued a non disclosure order.
B
Ensuring that neither he nor any of the American people knew about these subpoenas, is that right?
A
The toll record, the non contact toll record subpoenas. We did secure nondisclosure orders for those subpoenas. You did. And let me ask you, Mr. Smith.
B
At the time you, you secured those.
A
Nondisclosure orders, was Speaker McCarthy a flight risk? The non disclosure order was based on concerns about. Was Speaker McCarthy a flight risk? He was not. He was not.
B
Then why did your non disclosure order refer to him as a flight risk? It says right here, the court finds reasonable grounds to believe that such disclosure.
A
Will result in flight from prosecution. Sir, when securing a non disclosure order, the risks don't have to be associated. You think that the speaker of the.
B
House finishes the question?
A
No, this is not your time.
B
This is my time.
A
You think, you think the speaker of the House is a flight risk?
B
You think he's going to hop on.
A
A plane and leave the country? No, no. What I was trying to explain is with respect to a non disclosure order, the risks aren't necessarily associated with the subscriber to the phone.
B
The risks to the investigation I think that you were using, this was clearly in reference to Speaker McCarthy and you.
A
Were using clearly false information to secure a non disclosure order to hide from Speaker McCarthy and from the American people the fact that you were spying on his toll records. What they're doing is setting up a predicate to charge Jack Smith. That's what they're doing. They're setting up a precedent, they're creating a fact pattern that Jack Smith broke the law, wasted tens of millions of American tax dollars on doing this, in hunting, in doing a dog hunt for Donald Trump. That's what they did. This is a final clip. I mean, listen, we tried to cover this live yesterday. There was so much news happening and while we were live on the show, they took like a two hour break, like right during our show. I mean they got like opening statements out and then it took this really long break. That's just how it works, man. Donald Trump, Jack Smith being decimated. Here's a good one. Probe that Jack smith ran wasted 35 million and that's the official number. So what's the real number? Here we go. When I assumed the job, how much money, okay, how much money did you spend in the investigating President Trump? How much on your office been? I do not recall as I sit here now, but I know that pursuant to, I believe it's the special council regulations, reports were issued each six months detailing how much we, we got. We, we gathered at $35 million. And what I want to know is how much of that $35 million of taxpayer money did you give to confidential human sources? We know you gave 20,000 to someone. It just got reported last week. How much more money did you pay confidential people, people we don't know about with American tax money going after the guy we elect the President. My recollection regards the $20,000 which was not a payment from me. It was me approving a payment by the FBI to a confidential human source who was reviewing video and photographic source. I do not know the identity of the source. How many other payments went to this source or other sources? As I sit here, I do not know the answer to that question. My role as special counsel. $35 million. And you giving money to people, the country doesn't know who they are and you're giving their hard earned money to these folks they're setting up. Jack Smith being charged. Ladies and gentlemen, here's our poll of the day from Polymarket. Charged by March 31st. 30% chance. Okay, I'll take it. 30%. So you're saying there's a chance. There's actually a pretty good chance. Actually it's ticked up just a bit since the nightmarish Jack Smith testimony yesterday was not good for Jack Smith. And again, what the Republicans are doing there is creating a fact pattern where Jack Smith can't defend himself. And so you do this and then you refer him for prosecution of the doj. That's how it's going to work. That's how it's working with Clintons. That's how it did work with any foushee. We got to make sure that we're pushing the administration to prosecute. That's why we're very happy to see the arrests this week. We should all be celebrating that. Let's go ahead and celebrate a little bit with in the chat, shall we? Let's take some, let's, let's, let's do comments from the chat. We'll do some super chats, we'll do some chat chats, whatever. Let's rock and roll. We haven't done This a long time. We're gonna do it every single Friday in the chat. Let's go. Yo. Okay. Yeah. I mean, like, listen, we apologize that we have been, like, just. We just been rolling, you know, we just been rolling. Klein knows it. Everyone on the team knows it. We just, we want to stay more structured on the program. And this is just one of the ways that we buckle down and stay structured. I would love to do in the chat every single show. So let's just start. Stop blabbing and start. We're just going to go rapid fire here. If you don't. If you don't mind. Let's rock and roll. Benny Brigade, please continue to call leader John Thune. Pressure on the past save act. They might still be on a 10 day vacation. That's exactly right. We asked your question. To preserve America. We asked your question and we will continue to do so. Benny, what can be done about the stupid judge that's doing nothing with lemon nuts? What's the next step? I called the DOJ yesterday and I got the next steps. So these magistrate judges are, well, first off, this guy should have recused himself. So the magistrate judge should recuse. Like, if your wife works for Keith Ellison, how are you able to fairly adjudicate anything here in the state of Minnesota? So that's what we should be calling for, a recusal of magistrate judge. But here's what can happen. The chief judge who's in charge of all these magistrate judges, he can override the magistrate judge. So that's what the DOJ is working on right now. Chief judge can override it. The DOJ could also go to a grand jury and say, hey, grand jury, like, look at all this evidence against Don Lemon. And grand jury can say, arrest him. You could also continue to appeal and appeal and appeal. The DOJ has, you know, unlimited taxpayer money. They can continue this process. Don Lemon smarting off the mouth as he does yesterday, you know, saying, you can't get me. You can't get me. Boy, oh, boy. Pride comes before destruction. How many times we learned that on this program? Stay humble. Important for us to stay humble. Let's keep going. Thank you very much for your question. Limpy wheels from YouTube. I'm a disabled vet and an addict. Goodness, I want to turn my life over to God. Any suggestions? So if you are a disabled vet and you are addicted to whatever it is that drugs, alcohol, pornography, what those are, are very poor substitutes for the recognition of God's grace in your life, you're numbing yourself. That's what alcohol is, that's what drugs are. You're numbing yourself to some type of pain, some type of unrecognized pain that you don't want to deal with in your life. That's why people turn to alcohol, to remove their mind from reality. That's why people turn to drugs because they just can't handle reality. If you're disabled then perhaps there's like other problems there. There's maybe some pain in your life. And sometimes it's hard to come to the realization that God is in control, especially when bad things happen. But as somebody who's been through a lot of bad things, I'm not a disabled veteran, so I'm not here to speak to your exact circumstance. But I've been through some tough stuff, right? My family has been under threat. Our house has been burned with my kid inside. We've had to flee where I was raising my family had a whole career we had to abandon. We had death threats or people on federal, federal prison right now for, for, for coming after us. You know, it sucks man. There's been bad things that happen. Bad things happen to everyone. Having the peace and the divine serenity that God is in control and then handing that over to God. As David would say, the battle is the Lord right as he stands before Goliath. Whatever you're going through, it's not as scary as being like a 10 year old boy versus one of the most fearsome warriors in existence. A literal giant, a six fingered giant who stands 11ft tall, a monster. I mean this is the stuff of. And what does David say? God, the battle is the Lord's God is in control. And surely I will die on this field without Gods intercision. But I stand here and say it's up to God. I will give, I will hand these pains in my life, these struggles in my life, these Goliaths in my life, this, this burden in my life. I will hand it over to God because ultimately God created me. And God doesn't make mistakes. Your life limpy wheels is not a mistake. God didn't create some joke when he created you. God created you with a purpose. He didn't need you. God doesn't need a Benny. God didn't need a Charlie Kirk. God doesn't need a Donald Trump. He created people, including you for a purpose in his grand symphony of life. And in order to find that purpose and to find that meaning and to lock in with what it is that is going to provide you with absolute and total glory in this life. Because that's what you have. When you find your purpose in God, you gotta accept God's will in your life. And then man, then you can conquer anything. Your addiction to porn, your addiction to drugs, pills, alcohol, whatever it is that's keeping you down, that's that you are doing to numb that pain and to remove yourself from it. No, God will help you conquer it. Then you go out and you slay your Goliaths. And everyone's got them. Yeah. So there you go. Thank you, Limpy, for that. You know, this is my. That's sort of like my imperfect. I ain't. I am no preacher, Right, But I just. I've lived this stuff and that's what I found. That the battle is the Lord's, man. Limpy, take a leap of faith. And when you come to God and ask, I feel hopeless or helpless. Your leadership may find myself again in your image. We love you and we are personally rooting for you. That's exactly right. This community is rooting for you, Limpy. Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart, says the Psalms. What does that mean? You have to be able. If to delight yourself in the Lord. You have to be able to just like, accept that God created you and he created you for a purpose. So thank you, Limpy, for. For that comment. I didn't mean to go so far in, but like, this is just life, man. This is the experience of life. Sick about hearing about investigations and tough words. We want action. This from. I'm not into you, buddy. Gah. They want action for the fraud. I think you're going to see it, bro. I'm telling you, like, I've been, I've been connected with this. I've been connected with the people that are making moves right now. You are going to see action. We promised you arrests this week. Everybody laughed at me. We promised you a rest, boy. We got arrested. Not satisfied with Low Hanging Fruit Benny Waltz and Omar arrested and ultimately convicted. Justice needs to be served. Well, you just heard the congressman on our show saying we gotta arrest Tim Walls. We gotta remove him from office. And so I, you know, we can be. We can continue that path. The best that we can do is keep the heat up. Keep talking about it. Yo, we got 20 million subscribers across all platforms. We can keep the drumbeat going. We got more subscribers than New York Times. We can win the information war if we fight and we're fighting as hard as we possibly can. We just ask that you don't. Black Pill, please, please don't Black pill. Let's go. Where is your tax money going? We are pissed off. Avalos27 yeah dude, I gotta tell you man, we're pissed off too. Wait till you see our California investigation. Hopefully that will be out on Sunday. We are, we are working on it. We're working on it. Please put in a phone line that we can leave you funny voice messages. I'm going to leave that up to Alex and Klein. You guys can. You guys can figure that out. Love your show and praying for you. Thank you. You guys could do a brothers comedy. Okay. I mean maybe. Yeah. Maga. Proud to be an American. Thank you. From Chrissy. Is it, isn't it crime to retaliate against whistleblowers? It is. So I certainly hope that there is no retaliation. I assume you're talking about the whistleblower with Tim Walls. Talking about Tim Walls's crimes. Good morning Benny Brigade Blue state. So much corruption in the polis administration. This would be Colorado. I hope that there comes here and look into it. Looking into jbs. Look into jbs. So polis would be the governor of Colorado. Colorado obviously was a red state for your for the majority of your life and mine. A couple of Democrats decided to go in and rig the entire system in Colorado and flip the state. They did the same thing in Minnesota and now the state has just been one of the most naturally obviously gifted and beautiful states and now it is a third world country. If you drive through Denver, Denver is just like an abandoned city. Used to be one of the best cities in America and now it's just fallen and crumbled to pieces. Homelessness, criminal aliens. It's awful what's happened in Colorado. You're exactly right. And I pray for investigations as well. I realize that he has to be nice but Democrat states are not receiver states. They are leech states. Yep. You talk about Greg Stube and what he was saying about how the red states are effectively the blue states are dependents of the red states. They are leeches. They're parasitic. We want more fo and tired of hearing about the FA without the consequences. I agree with you, dude. I agree with you. So we're going to like Ronald. We're going to just continue to fight the bat. I don't run the doj. I wish I did. I don't actually, I don't think I'd be qualified for that. But whatever. Like I just, I wish I did. I wish there were like more things that we could do. But the best that we can do right now with our Audience and this show and you see the quality of people that come on the show. I mean we have administration officials on virtually every single show. We can ask them, we can get into the chat, we can get your comments and your questions. Mark my words. We will be asking about this because of you, Ronald. We will be asking about accountability. Accountability. We'll be asking about putting him in jail because you'd be in jail. That's the oldest Trump promise. He might make good on it this week. We'll see. Bring vans for the illegals. Bring buses for the peaceful obstructionists. Be nice. It's nice to see Democrat terrorists arrested. It's really, really nice. Yeah. So state of Colorado has the same problem. Check out JBS Greeley, Colorado. I think JBS is that giant meatpacking place plant in Colorado. Correct me if I'm wrong. Can we search on, can we search that jbs, that giant meat packing plant in Colorado? Please check out the hotels. Illegals. Lots of illegals in these hotels around jbs. Benny, can you give a shout out to Victor Marks? Yes. And actually here, lady trucker, you will get me saying right now we have got to have Victor Marks on the show. Victor Marks needs to be the governor of Colorado. He's a total legend. He was again, huge, as the comment says here, huge MAGA Republican and he runs a church. He's an awesome Christian. Victor Marks, man, I don't know, I don't know exactly who's running for governor. I don't know what the full slate is. We haven't done a lot of research on this. But I really like Victor Marx who was a big time friend of Charlie's. Somebody who's a friend of Turning Point usa. Victor Marks, a freaking legend. I hope that he wins and we want to have him on the show. So thank you, lady trucker. Support Scott Pressler and the SAVE Act. I wish I had his long hair. I don't. That seems like a lot of, a lot of work that Scott Presser, long hair. We haven't had Scott on the show either. So thank you for helping us produce the show. When we have Victor Marks on next week and when we have Scott Pressler on next week, lady trucker, you will be the reason why. So we say thank you, say God bless you. Target, United Healthcare, Best Buy and others corporations are based in Minneapolis which create a petition that if they continue to support the corrupt city and state keeping their headquarters there, they will lose our business. So many businesses have fled these corrupt cities and it's just, I mean if you can look at. You can look at the number of businesses that have fled, like Los Angeles, for instance, taking their headquarters out of Los Angeles. Because Los Angeles is just in a state of absolute and total collapse, decline and decay. There's no, like, once you lose those businesses, you lose this massive tax base and the whole city crumbles. If you're gifted, if you're gifted the blessing of having, like, big corporations in your towns and cities, then you got to keep them there. The way to keep them there is safe streets, legal workers, not the chaos of Minneapolis. Okay, here we go. Just a few more here. Thank you for hearing God's words, says Buddha atl. Thank you, Buddha atl. Christ is king. Amen. Trump is the greatest. Christ is king. By the way, from Christopher Arnold. Trump is the greatest. And excuse me, here we go. The Lord is walking with you. He is not there to lift you out of your problems or fix them for you. There's encouragement. You have the strength to overcome. Put on the full armor of God. That is a fact. How do you think that Charlie would talk about all of this? Charlie would be calling for arrests. He'd be celebrating the arrests. He'd be celebrating the DOJ doing things right now and arresting people. Charlie was someone who constantly was talking about how the left was going to export violence on campus all around the country. The next tactic was going to be the left exporting violence everywhere. And so that's what they did. And he was right. He said, you know, because Turning Point would see violence on campuses every single day. Like our activists getting attacked and getting just completely beat up and butchered on campus. And we'd say, like, this is the left. The left is going to now take this nationwide and they're just gonna burn entire cities to the ground. And sure as hell we'll rewrite in 2020. And that's what they're trying to do in Minneapolis. Thank God it's failing. I think these anti ICE protests, I think they're failed. I think they've failed. I think they're failing. But that's what Charlie would be talking about. You need to shut the violent left down now. And the way to do that is harsh, severe, ruthless prosecutions. Okay, let's do one more here from Avalos. Please look into the utility companies. Everyone I know is overcharged. No one can even explain why. Data centers maybe, but does not matter. We want answers. Yes, we need more energy in this country. And utilities have gone insane. Some of it is data centers. I think some of it is fraud by our Local governments and monopolies, frankly. And then I think a lot of it is that there are a lot of electric needs and we have a grid and infrastructure that just hasn't been updated in decades. There's new technologies like nuclear that I am a huge proponent of. I'm not paid to say this. You know, we got no nuclear advertisers. It's just like we have this truly renewable form of energy, and we haven't built a nuclear reactor in America in like, 30, 40 years. It's so stupid. Europe shut down all their nuclear reactors and then they banned all coal reactors. So now they're screwed. No, you have to have energy to have a superpower, to have a country. So, ladies and gentlemen, we need more power. Been watching you for years, says Christopher. Thank you, Christopher. God bless you. We deeply appreciate you and your support. Simulcast on Rumble, please. Well, we do, actually. Here we go. Find. Simulcast on Rumble. We do. We simulcast on Rumble and on X and on Facebook and on Instagram and we were even talking about TikTok this morning. We'll see. But, ladies and gentlemen, we appreciate you. What does that mean? I don't know. I don't know. Well, you're gonna have to unpack that because I'm not just gonna follow something. I'm not gonna follow that command unless somebody explains. Unless somebody explains. Unless somebody explains that to me. All right, let's work on that prompt. Ladies and gentlemen, a solid gold. A solid gold weekend to you. We hope this the greatest country on earth. Please, if you're considering this weekend your finances and your financial future. Advantage Gold is the gold company that we use and have procured physical gold and silver from. And I've been talking about it for years now. Advantage Gold has been a strong partner of the program, and I'm very thankful for that because, well, gold has done great. Obviously, the markets go up and down. This is just the way that it goes. But the way that gold goes over the long expanse of time, especially when the world is changing, is up, up, up, up. And that is exactly what's happened. If you got a 401k or IRA or any retirement account, you can switch over to physical gold and silver. With Advantage Gold, they can tell you how to do it. Text Benny to 85545 right now for a free gold investment kit. That's Benny to 85545 right now. Don't wait while the gold rally keeps breaking records. Do it today. Okay, Ladies and gentlemen, Klein tells me to say something about jail. Okay? So here it is. Jail, jail, jail, jail, jail. Because you'd be in jail. There you go. Okay, we got a new sound. We got a new sound bite, all right? It'll take you into the weekend. So will this verse of the day from Proverbs 29:11. Fools give full vent to their rage, but the wise bring calm in the end. Make sure that you are being wise by being at peace with what God has for you. Know that you have a Lord and savior that created you for a purpose and a reason, that he doesn't make mistakes. You're not born in the wrong body. You're not born in the wrong timeline, not born with the wrong skin color. God made you exactly how he wants you, and he wants you to embrace the bountiful and full life ahead. Do that with us in the greatest country on earth this weekend. Have a great one. It's your boy Benny. And remember, in the end, we win. Keep marching with us. See ya. They call themselves guardians of justice, but justice, like any currency, can be counterfeited. And they have mastered the mint. Winter isn't coming. It's already here. And it wears a robe. The biggest ships in the sea are all owned by the oldest kings and a dying legacy media dill weeds.

Date: January 23, 2026
Host: Benny Johnson
Notable Guests: Congressman Greg Steube, Trisha McLaughlin (DHS Assistant Secretary)
This episode of The Benny Show focuses on explosive developments in recent political and legal news, with a particular emphasis on whistleblower claims implicating Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison in a massive Somali-related fraud scandal. The episode also highlights concerns about activist judges allegedly protecting figures like Don Lemon, progress in crime reduction through aggressive law enforcement policies, activism for election reform, and continued audience engagement through live chat questions.
"There is no democracy that says you don’t need an ID and that you don’t need to vote in person. That doesn’t exist except for our nation." (10:05)
"In California, any person without an ID can register from literally a toilet... They just confirmed what I said was true, you idiots." (12:20)
"U.S. murder rate hits the lowest level since 1900." (18:35)
"About 70 to 80% of violent street crime is committed by 0.5% of the population. You go and get these dirtbags... off the street, and that's what happens." (21:27, Dan Bongino)
"I have to believe that the governor’s office and Keith Ellison’s office were aware of this." (27:36, Amy Bock)
"In Democratic states like New York, California, and Minnesota... they get more money in federal benefits than they put into the treasury because of all this fraud and programs." (38:33, Greg Steube)
"If Thune does away with the filibuster... otherwise the SAVE Act is gonna die." (43:43, Greg Steube)
"We are arresting murderers, rapists… that Tim Walz and Jacob Frey have been protecting from justice." (45:48, Trisha McLaughlin)
This episode weaves together whistleblower bombshells, pro-law enforcement victories, election integrity debates, and searing criticism of Democratic governance—framed by a show-long open dialogue with viewers and a persistent call for grassroots action. If you missed the show, you’ll walk away with deep insight into the current right-wing media narrative on corruption, the justice system, and the ongoing culture wars—delivered through Benny’s signature mix of bravado and crowd-sourcing.
