Benny Dalton (8:43)

Okay, beautiful. We'll have it by the show tomorrow. Here's your Santa sack. These are your Santa sacks of ornaments that are going out right now. This, the ornaments are ready to ship. Unlike last year where we were trying to play catch up, we've built it out this year. We are now ready to go. We want to be the number one Christmas sales ornament shop in the world. I think we're well on our way actually right now. So we're thrilled about it. Okay. Okay, here we go. The truth behind Trump's dramatic late night Epstein file reversal. It wasn't a gamble, it was a tactic. And the White House insiders say Democrats are going to pay. Let's go ahead and read this. And obviously you guys know my thoughts up off the top of the show. I just can't help myself, just keep yapping. But I just, I, you know, I, I've been, we've been talking about this for a very long time, doing our best to help. I think what happened here quite frankly was a massive miscalculation. A lot of friends in the administration, there's a lot of people at a high level that we know personally here and we care about them. And just like you would care about your friend, if they're making a mistake, you know, you step in to fix it. If you're a real friend, you do that. I had constant calls about this specific topic saying you've got to fix, we've got to fix it. You've got to have a plan that changes course when it comes to the release of these files. Just saying that these files don't exist, they're not real or you can't release any of them is not going to cut it, not with the American people. We have a right to know if we are paying taxes to a pedophile cult. The American people have a right, an obligation actually to know if that's where their tax dollars are going among, with a lot, amongst a lot of other horrible uses of our tax dollars. And so ladies and gentlemen, this is a, this was a critical issue. And I, you know, I dare say that it's caused an extremely unnecessary schism for the administration on tactics, the release, they should have just gone out with it. There just is no other way. And my final take on all this, as I've said again and again and again, is when you have a deficit of trust, you have to have extreme measures to fix it. And the extreme measures, whether it's here, the JFK assassination or UFOs or Bigfoot or the January 6th pipe bomber, so on and so forth, needs to be we trust the American people, we want to end the lives of the establishment and we are going to give you everything. And unfortunately, that was not the tactic here. And I think the Trump administration paid a little bit for this. I mean, I know that as a matter of fact, the truth behind Trump's Dramatic Late night Epstein reversal let's read. Donald Trump's sudden pivot on releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files was not an impulsive gamble, but a tactical move to end a months long drama that has consumed the White House and Congress. The President raged at reporters on Sunday night in Palm beach as he walked to Air Force One, berating them for asking about the convicted sex offender instead of lowing costs for Americans. I don't want to talk about it. Trump snapped, blasting the fake news like you and terrible reporters who dared to raise the subject. Within minutes though, and before the President reached the steps of his plane, the political reality that he could would lose the vote to release evidence on the disgraced financier began to sink in. Trump spent the 1 hour and 48 minute flight back to Washington conferring with Press Secretary Carolyn Levitt on how to navigate another week that would be consumed by Epstein coverage. The sudden shift Trump said Sunday night that House Republicans would vote to release the files. And it sounds like there are going to be a lot of Republicans voting to release these files. The White House insiders say that the Daily Mail White House insiders tell the Daily Mail that the move by Trump wasn't a U turn, but a calculated move to expose senior Democrats and his critics who had links to the pedophile financiers. And there's tons of those and we're going to cover this, cover it all in just a moment. Now the White House is expected to vote to release the Department of Justice full trove of Epstein files on Tuesday afternoon. Speaker Mike Johnson and senior Republican leaders have been unable to prevent their colleagues from breaking ranks and voting with Democrats. Investigators are believed to be sitting on more than 100,000 pages of connections to Epstein. Trump insisted on Monday that we've already given 50,000 pages. No matter what we give, it'll never be enough. Democrats hope embarrassing material about Trump could be included in the files, even though the president has never been officially accused of wrongdoing in the connection to Epstein, whom he insists he fell out with years ago. Again, all available data show shows that that is, in fact, true. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office Monday, we have nothing to do with Epstein. Democrats do. And all of his friends were Democrats. Again, that is a matter of fact. I believe that many of the people that we. Some people that we mentioned are being looked at very seriously in their relationship to Jeffrey Epstein. President Trump's called on a full investigation into Bill Clinton, for instance, when asked about if he would sign a bill authorizing the release of the files if it reached his desk, he said, sure, I would. I'm going to stop right there and play you this moment from President Trump yesterday inside of the Oval Office. This is the President's, what seems to be the President's final take on this. Is this Mike Johnson live right now? Is he speaking about it right now? Why don't we cover this live? Why don't we jump over here and take Mike Johnson live talking about this, just to see if there's anything new here? All right.

Mike Johnson (14:41)

Not just justice for what they were made to endure, but also we need answers on why it took so long for the Department of Justice itself to do that job under previous leadership. Republicans, meanwhile, are working in earnest to deliver transparency to the American people. And we're working to do that in a responsible manner that does no further harm to these innocent people and the victims who have been. Who have been wrapped into this. There are a few key facts here that everybody needs to understand. First, I mentioned the House Oversight Committee doing its work. That is a bipartisan effort. They are already producing far more than the discharge petition even anticipates. Chairman Comer is our chair of oversight. Some of the biggest bulldogs in Congress serve on that committee. You all know, and I've mentioned this so many times, they have been on the Republican and Democrat side. They're deeply dug in. They've been working around the clock. They worked even through the government shutdown, and there were tranches of documents that were released even over that period. So far, by last count, it's over 65,000 documents Epstein file, documents that are now out in the public for everyone to review. That includes tens of thousands of pages from the Epstein estate, and that includes Epstein's flight logs, his personal financial records and ledgers, his daily calendars, and so much more. And none of that is even written or included in the discharge petition. So in other words, the Oversight Committee is doing far more than the discharge even anticipates. And the most valuable information thus far has come from the Epstein estate files that was produced because of the work of the Oversight Committee that is doing that in a professional, robust manner, using the full subpoena authority of the US Congress. From the very beginning, our side has been insistent that this matter must be handled very carefully, with utmost caution and care for the victims. We want maximum transparency. We have always been about that. We want every single person who had any scintilla to there's any scintilla of evidence that they were involved in the Epstein evils. They need to be brought to justice and it should have been done a long time ago. We need to find out who those people are. But in the meantime, you have to remember there are real people's, innocent people's lives at stake here and young victims who don't want to be dragged into this political game because it could hurt further what they've already endured. They would be made to suffer more harm if Congress is not careful in what we're doing. And unlike our very important work that's underway in the House Oversight Committee, the Democrat led discharge petition would carelessly dump thousands of documents without proper protections for the innocent. I brought a chart in here this morning. I want to illustrate for you what we are concerned with now. I was a federal court litigator. The members of our House Judiciary Committee, Republicans in particular, have any of these concerns. You have Chairman Jim Jordan and attorneys like Chip Roy, who's running for Attorney General of Texas. Now you have Brad Knott, who's a former federal prosecutor, many members on the committee. Andy Biggs is running for Governor of Arizona. They're lawyers and they understand that the way the discharge petition was drafted is haphazard and dangerous. This is why we have been opposed to this point. Okay? And I could be here for a long time going through all the details of it. But the big concern we've all had all along is that the House bill, if it's passed in its current form and it was signed into law, it is dangerously flawed. And our problem and our frustration is there's no way for us in the House to amend it or correct these problems because the authors of the discharge will not allow it. And that's one of our great frustrations. Let me just very quickly, we have a Legal document that the lawyers we have all drafted to explain all this. But let me give you quick, quick five, quick maybe the top five concerns about it, and there are more. But as drafted, the discharge petition, it fails to fully protect victim privacy. I'm going to read you an excerpt out of our legal document we put together to explain all this. Congress should give the attorney general broader authority to redact all the victim information. The discharge doesn't do that. This would prevent the release of information that could be used to unmask victims who have chosen to remain anonymous. Now, you have some very brave women who have come forward and put their names and faces out there and done press conferences and explain that justice is overdue and. And our hearts go out to them and they are heroes. But you have as many as 1000 women by some of the accounts who may be caught up in this, and the vast majority of them have not come forward. Probably for obvious reasons. They don't want to be unmasked. But the discharge petition doesn't have adequate protections. It risks re victimizing those who were trafficked and exploited. And the courts have recognized this concern, by the way. Read you a quick excerpt. On August 20th of this year, Judge Richard Berman, the Southern District of New York, issued an order denying the DOJ's request to release Epstein grand jury materials, noting, quote, names and identifying information of victims appear in the subject materials, unquote. Judge Berman then quoted a letter related to the victim's concerns stated, quote, transparency cannot come at the expense of the very people whom the justice system is sworn to protect, unquote. And importantly, the judge quoted a letter from one of the victims in the proceeding. She is named as Jane Doe, too. She said this. This is one of the victims, quote, I beg the court to make sure it is of the utmost priority that in any sort of release all and every detail that could possibly reveal our identities be redacted. The victims of Epstein's evils deserve that protection, and the discharge does not currently provide. Okay. Number two, the discharge petition could create new victims, okay? Because it requires the DOJ to release information even in cases where the DOJ or the FBI has already reviewed it and determined it is not credible. It is false information. Doing this and requiring this to come out could ruin the reputations of completely innocent people.

Benny Dalton (20:41)

Okay?

Mike Johnson (20:42)

Those who have made may just have known Epstein but knew nothing of his crimes or whose names he exploited. Think of this. Innocent people whose names he exploited and used to try to get close to his intended victims. Their names may be in these files. And they had nothing to do with this. Okay, all right, all right.

Benny Dalton (21:00)

Enough, enough, enough. I've heard it, and I'm done with it. I've heard it. I'm sick of it. Honestly, I'm sick of it. Life's not fair. You know, like, sometimes there are just, like, unfortunate political realities. Things snowball, and life's just not fair. And really terrible stuff has happened to me in the public arena and so on and so forth. And every single day, like, just, you know, like, just check the comment section. It's just like, this is just the world that you play in, right? And it. And people get bulldozed, and it sucks sometimes, and it's just not fair. But there are also political realities. And the political reality of the current moment is that the evils of what Jeffrey Epstein did and the protection around Jeffrey Epstein, the racket of government protection around this international pederist that let him out of jail, that gave him a slap on the wrist, that gave him his own wing of the prison, that gave everybody immunity around him, that allowed him to operate and abuse these women, that's more important.

Mike Johnson (22:09)

Important.

Benny Dalton (22:11)

To destroy and for the American people to understand what that was. And sometimes you just got to do things for the greater good. Now, it was Mike Johnson just a couple of short months ago that was on our program, sitting just a few feet from me, going, we got to just release everything. And so that was the right take. It's always been the right take. This is about marketing. Don't try and explain this kind of stuff to people like, you know, listen, you got yourselves into this problem. And by you, I don't necessarily mean Donald Trump or Mike Johnson. I mean that the. The establishment in our nation, our intelligence agencies, our deep state. You got all yourselves into this problem by creating Jeffrey Epstein. You bastards could have just thrown him in prison a long time ago, and he would have been. And he could just rotted in jail. In 2005, you had a case on him that he was abusing young women. He's a total monster. You could have just gotten away with it. Meaning you could have just, like, done away with it, not gotten away with it. He did get away with it because of the feds. You could have been done with him. Throw him in prison for that. Maximum charges. Melt the key down. You never hear from Jeffrey Epstein again. He'll appeal. It'll take him 20 years. It'll be like. It'll. It'll be ridiculous battle. No one will care. No one will even know. There are hundreds of thousands of appeals Millions of appeals every single year for prisoners. Nobody cares, nobody knows. You wouldn't have created this. They created this problem. And more importantly, President Trump created Jeffrey Epstein. And what do I mean by that? It is a matter of fact, and to his great credit, in my personal opinion, that President Trump regularly and often brought up Jeffrey Epstein, popularizing Jeffrey Epstein in the 2016 campaign. Trump was the one who really brought Jeffrey Epstein to the forefront of our political consciousness. The first time that President Trump talked about Jeffrey Epstein on a national stage was in 2015. CPAC. Here we go.

Tucker Carlson (24:50)

Bill Clinton, nice guy. Got a lot of problems coming up, in my opinion, with the famous island, with Jeffrey Epstein.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (24:59)

A lot of problems.

Benny Dalton (25:01)

Then right afterwards, Donald Trump goes on and does an interview where he's asked about that comment. Well, what do you mean? The interviewer asks. And Trump goes, you gotta ask Prince Andrew. This is the first time anybody ever heard of this up until that point. I mean, I get it. There's a lot of people that have been doing, and I don't mean to insult the people who've been doing a ton of research, but up until that point, we'd never heard an American politician say, there's a pedo island that includes princes and presidents going there to abuse young women. We never heard anything like it. Here we go. You raised the question of Jeffrey Epstein in your remarks about in the Q and A.

Tucker Carlson (25:46)

Well, I think he's got a problem.

Benny Dalton (25:47)

What do you think the problem will be?

Tucker Carlson (25:49)

I don't know. But that island was really a cesspool. There's no question about it. Just ask Prince Andrew, he'll tell you about it. The island was an absolute cesspool. So.

Benny Dalton (26:00)

So Donald Trump created this news cycle and used, frankly, the Jeffrey Epstein crimes that Democrats committed on his island that he was well aware of. And we know this because of all of the, all of the emails that have just been released. I mean, imagine what we're going to release, what we're going to learn when they release all of them. Mike Johnson's there trying to explain like these little, you know, these small little nuances, like, just shut up. You know, like, honestly, when you're explaining in a situation like this, you're losing, you have to be on the side of full transparency. Nobody wants to revictimize people. There are ways to do it without doing that, but obviously the majority of the House is going to vote for this. It never needed to go that far. It could have just been done. It could have been done for from the get like this. Every single tranche of documents they've ever released has been horrifying for Democrats. What if you could delay your next two mortgage payments? That's right. Imagine putting those two payments in your pocket and finally getting a little breathing room ahead of the holidays. It's possible. When you call American Financing today, if you're feeling stretched by everyday expenses, groceries, gas, bills piling up, you're not alone. Most Americans are putting these expenses on credit cards. And credit card rates are insane. They're in their 20s or even 30s. American financing can show you how to use your home's equity to pay off that debt at rates in the low fives. Their salary based mortgage consultants are helping homeowners just like you restructure their loans and save money every single month without upfront fees. Their customers are saving an average of $800 a month and that's like a $10,000 raise without having to change jobs. Call now before it's too late. American Financing, 888-528-1219. That's 888-528-1219american financing.net Benny and exonerating for Donald Trump. Now, of course, we know that Donald Trump, according to Mike Johnson, was an FBI informant against Jeffrey Epstein. That should surprise nobody who's been following this case. Because President Trump is somebody who is working with the prosecutors, the cops, the Palm beach police to say this man is a monster. He's abusing the women at my club. He's a, he's banned from my club in Palm Beach. He's been stealing my staff, which is a matter of fact. And I think he's doing some bad stuff in there. And that this Donald Trump did that. If there's one person who actually is, you could argue based on all available data and evidence, the good guy here, it's Trump. I know that the media has tried to sigh up everybody and president and the, the administration not just coming forthright Lee out with all of the evidence. It gives the illusion that there's something, that someone's hiding something. But if you think that Donald Trump's guilty of something here, you're gonna have to point to some piece of evidence somewhere that reveals that. And you can't. We've done our research, we've gone through every single document, we've gone through all of it. We know this thing frontwards and backwards, what there is to know. And so here, at the very least, is a people's history of what we know so far based on all of the releases of the documents that Donald Trump is totally and completely exonerated by the chief witness to Jeffrey Epstein's crimes. The most popularized victim of Jeffrey Epstein crimes, and what I mean by that is somebody who's written a book about it, done a bunch of interviews about it. Her name is Virginia Roberts. And Virginia Roberts is in an email from Jeffrey Epstein saying that she spent time with Trump. Well, yeah, she was Trump's employee at Mar A Lago. He stole Virginia Roberts from Mar A Lago, Epstein stole Virginia Roberts from Mar A Lago and then abused her. And then President Trump banned Epstein from that and Virginia Roberts in testimony after testimony, sworn and otherwise. And what I mean by that is TV interviews, books. She has nothing but wonderful things to say about Donald Trump. Calling him an utmost gentleman, saying he didn't even flirt with the girls. President Trump didn't even flirt with them. So there's hit number one. President Trump asked Ghislaine to stop, according to the emails. Let's read. Epstein emails appear to show that Trump came to Jelaine Maxwell and specifically said, you need to stop what you're doing. With the underage sex stuff or with the abuse of women. Says, of course he knew about the girls and he asked Jelaine to stop. That's the email. Says, well, doesn't that make him a good guy? And then if he goes and he becomes an undercover, he becomes like an informant for the FBI and he contributes to the prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein. As we know from the victim's lawyers, doesn't this sort of create a fact pattern that Donald Trump was trying to stop this? We do know that Jeffrey Epstein was once a member of Mar A Lago and that Jeffrey Epstein used Mar A Lago to recruit young girls. Masseuse. And Mar A Lago was Virginia Roberts, for instance. We know that. And so then Donald Trump knew what Ghislaine was doing with the girls and asked them to stop. Ghislaine was the fixer, right? The madame. What else do we know about these documents? That Bill Clinton liked them young. Give me that photo of Delaine Maxwell at the Clinton wedding, please. I think this is critically important, and I need to. I need the date of this wedding. What date? What day was this? What date? What's the year? What's the year this photo was taken, please. It is a critical. It's critically important to understand with the Epstein timeline that there is a marked change in Jeffrey Epstein before and after the. Prosecutions. Jeffrey Epstein got the sweetheart deal where, you will recall, he belonged to Intel, Alex Acosta. Jeffrey Epstein got a slap on the wrist. But he became a sex offender after being found guilty of extremely watered down charges in a sweetheart deal that would give you diabetes type 2. It is the sweetest deal that you ever saw. But nonetheless after that it had been proven by a by amer, by an American court and found by an American jury that Jeffrey Epstein was a sex offender, was someone who preyed on young women. Yet here in 2010, Ghislaine Maxwell is gooning at Bill Clinton's only daughter's wedding. What does that tell you? Hear from the Epstein emails. Jeffrey Epstein said that Bill Clinton likes them young, referring to young girls. There it is in black and white. Amazing how nobody ever asked about this. We've had this email for over a year. Jeffrey Epstein has said that the Clintons degeneracy stinks even further. That Hillary Clinton was having an affair with Vince Foster before he died of suicide, shooting himself a couple times in the back of the head right next to a suicide note in a briefcase. That's how it normally happens. This is damning mysterious, doesn't reflect well on Hillary Clinton. But what's even worse is that it shows that the actual conspiracy here.

Mike Johnson (34:39)

Has.

Benny Dalton (34:40)

To be from the Democrats. Because in these emails you can find time and time again that it is Democrats who are using Jeffrey Epstein to attack President Trump. This is the one that really like stands out to me. 2016 Michael Wolf conspiring with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to finish Donald Trump. There's an opportunity to come forward this week and talk about Trump in such a way that you could garner you great sympathy and help finish him off. In subsequent emails, Jeffrey Epstein and Michael Wolf go into deep detail about how Jeffrey Epstein as a sex pest and predator can be used as a good thing. Why? You know, it really, it's so dark and it's so evil. The op here was that Jeffrey Epstein's pedophilia and abuse of young women. That's not the bug, that's the feature. Jeffrey Epstein has to be such a monster to these young girls. He has to be such a, such an evil per. He has to engage, he has to engage in these behaviors because then anybody who ever associates with him by proxy can be controlled even if they don't do nothing. You can see it as clear as day in the Michael Wolf emails. The goal of all this was for Epstein. Even if, even if the rich and powerful person didn't partake or didn't commit any crimes, that their relationship with Epstein was enough to control them. You can see that with Bill Gates clear as Day. You can see that in the emails, the Michael Wolf emails. Alex, do we have that, by the way? Thank you. Yes. Michael Wolf, brainstorming with Jeffrey Epstein about how you could destroy Trump politically just by the fact that you yourself are a sex criminal and you knew Donald Trump. They laid the op out in the open, and you can see how it all. You see how it all worked. They're inventing leverage against Donald Trump. Reading to you from the email, I think you should let him hang himself. If he says he hasn't been on a plane with you or at the house that gives you valuable PR and political currency, you can hang him in that way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you. Really looks like you could win. You could save him generating a debt. Look at that. He might say, Jeffrey Epstein is a great guy and he's gotten a raw deal and is a victim of political correctness, which is to be outlawed in the Trump regime. Man, and then look at this. I hear CNN is planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you. Oh, boy. Who's leaking the emails to cnn? The other thing that is revealed entirely in all this, the coordination between the Epstein camp and the media, corporate media.

Mike Johnson (38:10)

Also.

Benny Dalton (38:11)

Who's dragged into all this is Barack Obama. Something that we didn't know, but Barack Obama's lawyer, White House counsel Katherine Rumler, is deeply brought into this and that Barack Obama has direct connection. Now, you can see here you need to talk to your boss, says Jeffrey Epstein, to Catherine Rummeler, White House counsel for Barack Obama, as they talk about Barack Obama being in New York City for the unga. What's the unga? The UN General Assembly. How are you going to manage all of that? The UN General assembly this week. So the boss will be in town, too. That means Barack Obama. That has to mean Barack Obama, UN General Assembly. I'll be here all week. You may get sick of me. And then Jeffrey Epstein says, girls, careful. I'm going to renew my old habits. He's just out in the open with it. I mean, what does it matter at this point? You know, as we, as we began the show, the damage has been done, and the damage is going to be really bad. I mean, right now, like Larry Summers. Larry Summers is, like, all over these emails. He was the treasury secretary under Barack Obama, president of Harvard, and so on. Here in an email where Larry Summers asked Jeffrey Epstein if Trump uses cocaine, and Epstein responds by asking him if he can get a private Harvard tour for a Rothschild. Ha ha ha. Wait a second. Like, is Alex Jones just Right about everything. Is this really how the world runs? Is that what we're going to learn? Why protect that? Why protect any of this? Burn it all down. I think is positive what's happening today. I do. Then of course, one of the final revelations is that Jeffrey Epstein is just a straight up Israeli spy. That's just now been proven time and time again. But you can see here in a phalanx actually of reports along with the last known photograph of Jeffrey Epstein wearing an IDF shirt that Jeffrey Epstein was clearly working for the Israeli government, probably working for our government too. I don't think there's any way that he could run this operation without the CIA's permission. It was clearly American charges that he was getting off from. It was our Justice Department that was giving him pass, our FBI that was giving him pass, our CIA that was stepping in and saying that he belonged to intel. So it was us too, not saying that we bear no responsibility. So these are the kind of things that we're going to learn. And I say go for it. Bill Clinton is guilty as hell in all this. Jeffrey Epson was clearly involved with foreign governments, foreign powers that were operating him. Israel comes up a lot. Why I can say that with a hundred percent certitude that he was working on behalf of Israel is that according to multiple reports here from Drop Site News. And can you just get me all of the reports and we pop them up on screen? Because I just want to show you the direct evidence. Jeffrey Epstein was negotiating security deals for the nation of Israel. I know people that do that for America. Those people are my friends and they act on behalf of the American government, but they're private citizens, so they have special clearances and they fly around the world. I know these people and they negotiate security deals and arms deals and trades. And it's better to just not have someone from the administration doing that. It's better to have a private citizen doing that. It's less messy, there's less rules, but it's a common practice. So I know the people who do this. Dropsite news has, you know, a ton of these, a ton of these reports. But Jeffrey Epstein not only hosting Israeli spies, but brokering security deals between Israel and Mongolia. You don't do that unless you're a state actor. I'm well aware of this business. We know Erik Prince. We have him on the show. Like I know how this, I know how this operation works. So that's what, that's what he was doing. And even today, before they release all of the files, you're starting to see what's about to happen. Former Harvard President Larry Summers will step back from all public commitments in an effort to rebuild trust and repair relationship with the people closest to me, he wrote in a statement Monday morning. The announcement comes less than one week after seven years of correspondence between Summers and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein was released by the Republican House Oversight Committee. The documents show that Summers and Epstein continued to their exchanges until 2019. There is a difference between communicating with Jeffrey EPSTEIN in the 90s, which Donald Trump did do and Bill Clinton did do, and communicating with him after.

Tucker Carlson (43:39)

His.

Benny Dalton (43:40)

Sex predator charges and convictions. The people who jumped in after were not Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Bill Gates, the Obama administration, and so on. It's a totally different landscape and you have that if you want to like. I don't want to muddy the timeline too much, but that is the difference. Ladies and gentlemen, speaking to him all the way up till 2019, just one day.

Tucker Carlson (44:07)

Mic drop, hosted by former Navy Seal Mike Ritland. It's raw.

Benny Dalton (44:11)

So you do four platoons in seven years at team three when you go to the jump team.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (44:14)

Scariest job I had in the Navy.

Mike Ritland (44:16)

Until people started shooting at me.

Benny Dalton (44:18)

Yeah, it was a blast though.

Tucker Carlson (44:19)

It's unfiltered.

Benny Dalton (44:20)

At what point did you decide I'm done with the SEAL teams? If you only knew how the Navy works. We don't have an enemy to fight. Like, we'll eat each other.

Tucker Carlson (44:27)

It's tough talk from the top minds in their field. They're not looking for the best guy. Looking for the right guy.

Benny Dalton (44:32)

Yeah.

Tucker Carlson (44:32)

Mic Drop. Follow and listen on your favorite platform.

Benny Dalton (44:36)

Before Epstein was arrested on new sex trafficking charges. Goodness. I'm deeply ashamed of my actions and I recognize the pain that they have caused. He says. I take full responsibility for my misguided decision to continue communicating with Jeffrey Epstein. Summers is currently a senior fellow at the left leaning think tank center for American Progress. Paid columnist at Bloomberg. Serves on the board of directors at OpenAI. Cuts, of course, because of course, a spokesperson for Bloomberg declined the comment. So there we go. He says he's stepping back. So this is just going to be the first in a very long line. First in a very long line. Okay, ladies and gentlemen. Yeah. Sorry about this, ladies and gentlemen. We have a senator who's on this story and who has never shied away from the truth, has always been a straight shooter with us. His name, Senator Tommy Tuberville from the great state of Alabama. Very interested in his take on all this. Let's rock and Roll. Senator, welcome. Welcome back. I see the Space Force logo behind you there. It's pretty awesome. Welcome back to the program. So this is going to be very, like, an interesting Epstein Super Cycle day. I think the House is going to vote on this petition, and I think it's going to pass overwhelmingly. What's your take on the Senate?

Senator Tommy Tuberville (46:03)

Meaning we're going to need a bigger jail, and I hope we do. Let's put them all in jail. This has gone on way too long. I don't really understand why we're having to vote on anything in the House or the Senate. Just let it go. Let the justice system do its job. These people are definitely criminals. Any. Anybody have anything to do with young kids, we put them in jail, we throw the key away. I don't care who it is. It's time to get this mess over with and let people know you're going to pay the price for doing something like this. So, you know, it's going to blow up Larry Summers right off the bat. I don't know who else is going to be. I have no clue.

Mike Johnson (46:43)

But.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (46:44)

But I'm anxious, like everybody else to hear about the transparency that President Trump offered up during his campaign. And here it comes, and I'm looking forward to it. Some people are going to have a very, very tough holiday season, and they should.

Benny Dalton (46:57)

I think what a lot of people have wondered is, like, why did it take so long, not just from President Trump, but throughout. You know, Jeffrey Epstein killed in 2019. Why has this taken. Why has this taken so long? Obviously, Democrats are doing it now. They. Nobody even cared about Jeffrey. We did, but nobody cared about Jeffrey Epstein during the Biden years. They could have done it. But this moment, it seems unnecessarily political, like, from political perspective, seems to have unnecessarily extracted a lot of energy.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (47:32)

Well, the only thing I can think of, Larry, many. I've been around President Trump quite, quite a bit. I'm not asking that direct question, but you have to go back and look at this. We have been so far underwater in this country. I don't know whether at the beginning of President Trump's term that we could have withstood, you know, the. The mental capacity of what is getting ready to happen across people across this country and a lot of different things. So I would hope that he would give you the reason of. Listen, we had to get our economy back going again. We had to get things going over in the right direction in the Middle east, all over the world, Benny, we're underwater. This country and this world is underwater. And something like this at the very beginning might have just caused a catastrophe. But as President Trump said, hey, Democrats, you want it to be brought out, let's get it done. And so here we come, and so be it. I'm looking forward to people going to jail and paying the ultimate price for what they did. And it's just American people deserve this, and we deserve to get it out of the way where we can get this country back on a speed again, because we're struggling.

Benny Dalton (48:40)

Yes. And I want to talk about that. One final question on Epstein. What happens, what happens next? Can you explain this to us? This is the first time that the Congress has ever voted to release criminal evidence from trial or otherwise, according to all available evidence. It's going to pass pretty overwhelmingly in the House today. So then what happens next? Does that then go to the Senate?

Senator Tommy Tuberville (49:03)

Yeah, my understanding it goes to Senate. We'll talk about it tomorrow and in our first caucus lunch since we've taken off after we opened the government back up. So it'll be an interesting discussion. President Trump will probably have something to say about it in terms of vision with a lot of us. But at the end of the day, as he said, hey, enough, enough of this. Let's know you want it out there. Let's get it done. I got a lot more work to do out there other than just this. But let's get. Put, put cards on the table and let, let's, let's see where the cards take us and see what happens. And again, I don't know why we're having to vote on it. I mean, my God, these people broke the law. And the last time I looked, if you break the law, you go to, you go to court and you go to jail.

Benny Dalton (49:47)

It does seem, since you are a member of Congress and you are in Congress, there is this congresswoman named Stacey Plaskett, who the Washington Post has proven now beyond a shadow of a doubt that when she was asking questions in a committee, she was directly texting Jeffrey Epstein. He was giving her advice on what to say in order to get Trump. And I mean, we have the footage right here. So you can see her texting Epstein and then asking the questions that Epstein was telling her to ask. Now, this is like, if this were happening to a Republican, they'd be tarred and feathered at this point. I mean, they, they bring back the, you know, stocks and people throwing tomatoes and is this going to fly? This is like, this, this is a sex predator telling Democrats, like, ordering Democrats what to say from the dais in order to get Trump. It's crazy, man.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (50:41)

Yeah, it is crazy. And anybody that represents American citizens across the country in Congress or in the Senate, and if you're doing something like this, I mean, you, you just can't make up stupid this, this much. I mean, it's just absolutely ridiculous. Obviously got their hand out taking campaign money, doing something in terms of, of breaking the law themselves. So enough, enough of this. Let's get it out there, let's get it going and let people across the country know that the American people are being taken care of by the justice system. But right now, they got a lot of doubts.

Benny Dalton (51:14)

Yeah, that's right. That's right. I mean, you know, you're really straight shooters. Why we love having you on the program. It was great to speak with you at the Turning Point event in Auburn. That was really fun. And I think that people just really, you know, are very tired of the establishment lying to them. Trump was a protest vote. Yamandami is a protest vote. People are sick of the establishment enriching themselves, protecting themselves only, and not caring about the American citizens. And I think that young people are going to go either Mandami or maga. And so we've got to show them that we are here to also tear up the establishment and then provide a better life. We know the Communists won't. We know what happens there. So what would be your advice, Senator, for doing that? Because that you have to show real world results. Obviously, this Epstein thing has been, I think, a lot more drawn out than you want it to be. There's also consternation about the J6 pipe bomber, other information that the American public isn't getting that they were seemingly promised. I think it's like a, you know, it's a big time for choosing for MAGA right now.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (52:20)

Yeah. This is a dividing point. You know, they killed Charlie Kirk, our friend, because he was telling the truth.

Benny Dalton (52:26)

Yes.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (52:27)

And they didn't like the truth. And so at the end of the day, I think President Trump was a big cause of Madame Winning, not because of him personally, but because a lot of these young people across the country are looking at, wait a minute. So we got an establishment here. It's not changing whatsoever. President, as I said earlier, President Trump's trying to, but he was so far underwater. So he's caught up in the, in the, the tidal wave. And then for some reason, a lot of these young kids and in New York said, you know, I'm not a Trump fan. I'm not A Mandat Mandami fan. But this is different. This changes course for what's going on in our country. So they made a decision to vote for him. Not a very good decision. And I think President Trump probably gonna have to get involved with the governor there because the governor can stop a lot of this nonsense. Hokul. But at the end of the day, you know, this is, this was a lot about President Trump, the mainstream media going after him, just telling people how much he was a big part and most of the problem, which he's most of the solution, they'll find out in the long run.

Benny Dalton (53:35)

So what about the thing that, that young people care the most about the American dream? And obviously, like even with Epstein, what you're going to find, I think, and I'd love to get your opinion on this, but what you're going to find I think is a lot of foreign involvement, a lot of very nefarious corruptions with various intel agencies around the world and various other countries around the world. But my take on the senator is that Americans are sick of that. They're sick of our leaders not, not caring for us and not caring for the American people. One of the main marks of a collapsing society is that young people have no future. They can't afford homes, they, they can't start a life, they can't start a family, get married, have grandchildren. Homeownership is collapsing around the country. The capacity to buy a home, own a home and start the American dream is getting extended longer and longer. Out. Now, the average age of a first time homebuyer is 40, which is past the optimum age of fertility, past the age that most people want to start families. You know, it's collapsing the American dream. Senator, is there going to be a major focus on that in the Senate, in the Republican Party?

Senator Tommy Tuberville (54:47)

You know, Benny, my number one focal point when I was coaching young kids is that, listen, this country doesn't owe you anything other than an opportunity, an opportunity to fulfill that American dream. You're exactly right. The problem we have in there right now is the four years of Joe Biden and these awful policies going all the way back to Barack Obama, letting all these people come in from countries all over the world, 20, 30 million people. We don't have places for them to live. I mean, it's just that serious. So that's one of the reasons we have to have an immigration policy. We have to close the borders. We have to do everything we can to help these young people because, you know, they're looking at going Hey, I hear about what President Trump saying, but I hear about what the Biden administration did. I hear about what Congress is saying. We don't trust anybody because it's not working for us. You know, we can't make a living off 50, $60,000 a year. We've got 500,000 people in Alabama that make $30,000 or less. How in the hell do you live off that? And it's just, it's, it's insane. So that's really. No. Went back to what President Trump, he came in way underwater. He's gone nine months with just busting his ass to try to get this country going again. And everybody's yelling about all these things that happened in the past. He's good with that. But now he says, hey, if y' all want all to come out the same time, we'll just get it out there and wash your laundry. And it's going to be a, it's going to be a huge washload through Thanksgiving and Christmas, I hope.

Benny Dalton (56:15)

I hope so. I love seeing the domestic turn, but I hope that it's not too late. The administration obviously was elected to care about the American people. I think they've done great work. But I want to see a major messaging war to tell young people what MAGA is going to do for them. I, obviously, I know that you are a great part of that, speaking to 10,000 students at Auburn. And that's what I think we need to vision cast. Because if you lose that, I mean, listen, it really will be. The future will be MAGA and. Or Mandami MAGA or Marxism. And we got to win center.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (56:48)

Well, we're a big part of the problem up here, Benny. Washington, D.C. it is nothing but a quagmire. And I'll say this, I know we're going to go here, but let me tell you this. We have to keep hitting on busting the filibuster. And I was totally against this a few years ago to try to keep equal powers, but let me tell you something. This is not the same Democratic Party you and I have seen the last 10, 15 years. These people are evil. And if we don't make sure that we get valid voting ID and no mail in ballots, we are done for because they're going to cheat the hell out of us again like they did in 2020. It's coming and we're going to lose our country and probably going to lose the world to all these communists. So we have to do something about what's going on up here. And, and Bust a filibuster and get something done for the American people in the next nine, 10 months, they're going to vote us out.

Benny Dalton (57:42)

I feel that. I mean, listen, if the filibuster was gone today, what would be the first four or five agenda? What would be the first three agenda items that you would want to see through? In conclusion, what would be the first three things that Republicans would, would pass in the Senate?

Senator Tommy Tuberville (57:55)

First would be voter id. You got to do that. You got to do it. We're getting ready to go into election season. The second thing would be no mail in ballots. It's the biggest cheating fraud ever to happen on the face of this earth. And it was all caused by the Democrats going through this hoax of COVID that we went through. And the other thing is, is we got to get a balanced budget. My God, we can't keep spending $2 trillion more than American people sent up here every year. It is it. That's criminal in itself. We have got to find a way to make sure we do things up here for the American people and quit doing it for lobbyists and quit doing it for politicians and quit doing it for the billionaires. We can't do it. Corporations have got to pay their fair share. We've got to do what's right for this country. But we can't do it if we can't do a 51 vote in the Senate. And again, they will vote us out in. The next time they get in, they're going to do it and it's going to be. Katie, bar the door.

Benny Dalton (58:49)

Senator, we, we're, we're, we're sad a little bit that you're leaving the Senate. But we know the great state of Alabama needs great leadership as well. We know that you're running for governor there. We fully support and endorse senator Tuberville. And in that race, you can follow Senator Tuberville right here. He has 120,000 subscribers on X. Godspeed, Senator. Thank you.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (59:11)

Thank you. God bless.

Benny Dalton (59:19)

Ladies and gentlemen, we are ripping through the show today. Let you know about how we chill out at the end of the night. This is something that my wife and I both do. My wife had her red light bond charge infrared blanket on last night. The rule in the Johnson household is that we don't, don't turn it on when the kids are around a red light.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, Ted Cruz. Ted Cruz announcing that he will be running. I mean he hasn't actually announced this yet, but you can, you can, you can see it, you can sort of read the T lips here. Ted Cruz sets the stage for 2028. I hate it. I hate it. Let me tell you what's actually happening. There is a wing of people in the Republican Party called neocons. Neocons want America to be constantly at war with every country on earth. They profit from this. They want America to be the world's police. They want forever war and they want it now. They are exhausted by the current political environment which has seen neo colonism on its, on life support effectively. And they need to do something drastic. And here's what they've come up with. I'm telling you, the plan right now had a lot of phone calls on this. This is what's going on. The plan right now is to lose the midterms. They want that to happen. They want President Trump to get impeached. They want a lame duck administration. They want Republicans and Donald Trump and MAGA to collapse and fail. They want us to then disintegrate as a movement. So much of the agitation right now against MAGA is foreign funded or funded by nefarious entities that are trying to break us apart. The goal then is to reestablish the establishment Republican Party that you saw with a John McCain nominee or a Mitt Romney nominee to completely eradicate America first and to go back to uniparty rule where Democrats and Republicans just kind of agree to pass the baton kindly between each other and to let globalists forever wars, foreign interests, foreign invasions happen on our soil and to slowly whittle down or completely and totally atomize all political power for heritage Americans in exchange for a globalist government ruled by the World Economic Forum, rule by foreign masters, and placing the interests of foreign nations always and forever over the interests of Americans. Ladies and gentlemen, this is what Ted Cruz's campaign is all about. He is running hard against Tucker Carlson, J.D. vance, who are very close to each other. Tucker Carlson's son does work for J.D. vance, and that's an honorable and awesome thing, actually. Same as Buckley Carlson, he's a great dude. Ted Cruz doesn't like the fact that Tucker Carlson has called him out on multiple occasions for what seem seemingly indefensible stances when it comes to bombing Iran, defense of apac, defense of foreign lobbies, and sort of blind defense of other foreign nations other than America. And so that's created a schism. J.D. vance, I can tell you, is, and you can see through the leaked signal chats, is staunchly, ardently, and ironclad America first. He's got it in his bones. JD Vance would be an excellent candidate in 2028 were it not for sabotage from internal party politics. And that's what's happening right now. So that's why you're gonna see headlines like this. That's the moment that we're gonna live through. We're gonna live through the moment where the right. The right, really just a different brand of leftism and globalism attacks maga. And that's the op that's happening right now. Why let libs do it? Libs failed at attacking maga. You gotta go fifth column. You gotta go inside the walls, and that's what you're gonna see happening. The goal here again is going to be to have Republicans catastrophically lose the Senate and the House in the midterms and then impeach Donald Trump. Will they be able to remove Donald Trump from office? Are they gonna get 67 senators? I don't think so. But are like. But are they gonna try and they're gonna make life living hell. Yes, it's a matter of fact. And so it's pernicious. It's evil. Politics is dirty, man. And this is what's happening right now. Will it work? I'm telling you, I don't think so. Got to Play the cards right, though. You got to deliver for the American people. America first has to deliver for the American people. Ted Cruz didn't just get a little bit of a beating from Tucker Carlson. He got one from President Trump back when Donald Trump was running against ted Cruz in 2016. A highlight reel that sent that had me howling yesterday. And then we have Lauren Boebert lined up from the house to talk about what's. What's happening today. Gonna be interesting. But here we go, ladies and gentlemen. Tell me there's telling. There's not gonna be sour grapes after this. This is just. Man, Trump 2016 was a different vintage. Here we go. That's a matter of principle.

Tucker Carlson (66:41)

And I'll tell you this liar. You probably are worse than Jeb Bush. You are the single biggest liar. All right, this guy lied. Let me just tell you. This guy lied about Ben Karl Carson when he took votes away from Ben Carson in Iowa. And he just continues. This guy will say anything. Nasty guy. Now I know why he doesn't have one endorsement from any of his colleagues.

Benny Dalton (67:04)

All right, John, Senator Cruz pick from the buffet there.

Tucker Carlson (67:06)

He's a nasty guy.

Benny Dalton (67:08)

Why do you lie, Donald? Why don't you learn not to interrupt. Why do you lie, Donald? Learn pushed him, Donald. Adults learn not to interrupt.

Tucker Carlson (67:14)

Yeah, yeah, I know you're in a talking about the polls. I'm beating him awfully badly in the polls.

Benny Dalton (67:20)

But you're not beating Hillary. You're not beating Hillary.

Tucker Carlson (67:23)

Well then if I can't can't. If. Hey, if I can't beat her, you're really going to get killed, aren't you? He can't do it for the obvious reason and he can't do it because he doesn't know how to tell the truth here. Other than that, I rest my.

Benny Dalton (67:37)

You've been funding liberal Democratic politicians and by the way, I funded you the reason you're welcome to have the check. I funded this because let's get it clear. Yeah, you gave me $5,000 ahead, Donald. You can get back on your a.

Tucker Carlson (67:51)

Lot of fun up here tonight. I have to tell you. Thank. Thank you for the book.

Benny Dalton (67:55)

Donald, Donald, relax.

Tucker Carlson (67:56)

Go ahead. I'm relaxed. You're the BAS case. Go ahead. Go ahead. Don't get nervous.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (68:03)

Go ahead.

Benny Dalton (68:04)

My name promise you nothing about you that makes anyone nervous.

Tucker Carlson (68:09)

People are actually watching. You don't know what gentlemen.

Benny Dalton (68:15)

Different animal, ladies and gentlemen. A different animal. Somebody who remembers it well. The great congresswoman Lauren Boebert joining the show live right now. Okay. How you doing, Congresswoman? What an interesting day in the House.

Tucker Carlson (68:35)

Yes.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (68:35)

And that clip really just took me back. And it kind of reminds me of the Shane Gillis skits where he's like, you know, we're never going to see another Donald Trump debate again. Those were the best debates. Like, he just gets up there and says, you're ugly. And everybody's like, wait, you could do that?

Benny Dalton (68:49)

Yeah, it was, it was, it was a totally different. It was, it was an animal. And you could see why. He's won the White House now twice. Maybe you'd argue three times. President Trump.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (69:00)

I would.

Benny Dalton (69:00)

Is, yeah. President Trump is somebody, however, who is going to win the Epstein vote. I mean, now he's in favor of it. Give me an update on the Epstein vote in the House today.

Mike Johnson (69:12)

Sure.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (69:12)

So this was never political for me. I certainly stand for the victims and transparency. I serve on the Oversight House Committee. And there's just information that we don't have available to us, whether it be from liberal judges who have sealed records or protected them and kept them from us, or it's the estate that has not turned everything over just yet. I certainly. It was inquiring when I spoke with Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Cash Patel, some of the things they are saying that they just do not have access to. And I said, well, you're in luck. I'm a lawmaker, so let's just make a law that gives you access to the things that you do not have or may not have. So we are taking this vote. Speaker Mike Johnson has accelerated the vote. There's a procedure that would typically have led seven legislative days to ripen this, this discharge petition. He said, let's just vote on it. So we're doing that today. But in tandem. Ralph Norman is introducing a censure resolution for Delegate Stacey Plaskett. Now, this is the disgraced congresswoman who has received campaign donations from Jeffrey Epstein after he was a convicted felon for a. Convicted for sex crimes. And, and now, uh, we see that she was coordinating in a House Judiciary hearing with Jeffrey Epstein. She was being coached by this disgusting man on how to take down a sitting President of the United States, Donald Trump. For Democrats who tried to pair President Trump with Jeffrey Epstein, I think they're going to continue to be proven wrong. He is the man who some suspect was a whistleblower against Jeffrey Epstein. Uh, he also kicked him out of Mar A Lago once he learned what he was involved in. And Jeffrey Epstein has made it clear many times that President Trump was the one that needed to be taken Down. He was the one that was going to expose Jeffrey Epstein. And in fact, in his first administration, he was the president who indicted and convicted Jeffrey Epstein. And we were able to get depositions, depositions that I have not seen seen in full. And one thing that I am fighting for, for sure, but we also, that also led to the conviction of Ghislaine Maxwell. So President Trump has been on the right side of this all along. I will agree with him wholeheartedly that the Democrats are using this as a distraction. That has been his number one issue with this the entire time. He is doing amazing things for our economy, for our country. Our southern border is secure. Our, our illeg immigrant rate is down. People are self deporting. ICE is doing a great job. Things are getting back to normal now. That was four years of destruction we just went through under Joe Biden. So it's going to take some time to reach the affordability level that we all want. And we have some plans to do that. You've even talked about those and the things you were working with Charlie on towards the end there. And, and also he's, he's doing amazing things around the world. He is the world leader, the leader of the free world. And so the Democrats have used this as a distraction from the good that President Trump is doing. A distraction from Democrats shutting down the government for the longest time in history, more than 40 days, where folks were without WIC, were without SNAP benefits, were without paychecks, where air traffic was, was creating chaos and, and frustration for millions of Americans and throughout our great country. And so I agree with him wholeheartedly. This is a distraction for them to use, but it is going to backfire. Even leader Hakeem Jeffries, I have seen this man live on full spin cycle and he does a decent job at it. Of course, when you know the truth, you can roll your eyes and gawk at it and just explain what he is saying away. But even when the press is asking him about Stacy Plaskett, about her being coached by a pedophile, a convicted felon, he's like, yeah, well, I guess, you know, we just got to do what we said we would do and these predators are going to have to be held accountable. He, he doesn't have anything to defend her. He says, look at her own statement. I haven't even spoke to her about it. So this is all going to continue to backfire. We are going to have the vote on Jeffrey Epstein and releasing those files and in the House and also a censure resolution because Benny this woman sits on the House Intelligent Intelligence Committee. This is absurd. You certainly couldn't receive a clearance if you had a background like that and associations like that to, to have the level that she does. She has a higher level of clearance than I do sitting on the Intelligence Committee and she needs to be removed from there.

Benny Dalton (74:26)

Yeah, I mean there's a lot of follow up questions to this, but the most important one I guess is if you are seen to be in operations of a pedophile and that's what's happening here. A pedophile is running a member of Congress, probably many members of Congress frankly. But like, let's just say with the provable case is Stacy Plaskett beyond a shadow of a doubt. Of all places to prove it. The Washington Post. Wow. I mean, geez. Okay, so we all agree, right, Left, right and center, we all agree what should happen. What, you know, a censure vote is like, you know, like what should, what should actually happen to Stacey Plasket? Should she be criminally investigated?

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (75:03)

I absolutely. She needs, believe she needs to be investigated. The DOJ needs to open a full fledged investigation into her immediately and essential resolution. Sure. That is a slap on the wrist. Many use it as a way to raise more money. I don't know if the estate would be donating to her from Jeffrey Epstein here. But, but really what I want to see from the censure resolution is a removal from those committee assignments. Now I believe, like I've stood up for colleagues in the past who Democrats wanted to remove from committee and I said, you know, it's, it's the, the American people sent them here to represent them and removing them from a committee removes that representation. But this is a special committee, this is the Intelligence Committee with a special clearance. And, and I don't think that anyone like that has any business serving on a committee of that level. So I think there needs to be something done there and absolutely the DOJ needs to open an investigation into her and, and the connection that she had with Jeffrey Epstein, this was after he was convicted. This was in 2019. President Trump was the president. They were going after all of these Russia, Russia, Russia hoax and trying to prove him to be some guilty man and even later used that testimony to try to charge him as he was a candidate for president again. So this goes very, very deep. And I don't think she's the only one that we are going to find connections like this with. Jeffrey Epstein. Again. President Trump has been right about everything. Jeffrey Epstein was friends with Democrats. This is their problem. And when he says this is a hoax, he means this is a distraction from what we are doing.

Tucker Carlson (76:45)

You.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (76:46)

He is not implicated in this, and it is the Democrats who have been friends with him. Now, will we find some Republican names? Sure, maybe, I don't know, roast them. Let's go. I mean, I'm not holding back on anybody, Benny. You know, I've never been afraid to call out even my own party, so I'm not afraid of what's in there. President Trump says he's not afraid. Let's have the vote and let's get the truth out.

Benny Dalton (77:09)

Yeah, I mean, you're also starting to see some major allusions to a name that has stayed mysteriously away from Jeffrey Epstein, which would be Barack Obama. You're starting to see Obama's lawyer, White House counsel Katherine Rummler. She's all over these documents talking about her boss and how she needs to contact her boss on this or that. You know, you can see it in the actual black and white in the emails. What is going to be the fallout for a Bill Clinton or a Barack Obama here who seemed to be far more in collusion and coordination with Jeffrey Epstein than President Trump? I mean, yes, President Trump's name appears in here. Why does his name appear? Because they were trying to sabotage him because he was working with Michael Wolf and members of Congress to try and destroy Donald Trump. This is what Epstein was doing. This was the op. Actually, when, when you say a hoax, this is the actual hoax. The hoax is that, like, Jeffrey Epstein was being used to, to. To take the kneecaps out of Trump. This is like, plainly obvious for anybody that is like a cursory read of these emails. So anyway, for the people that were on Jeffrey Epstein side, Bill Clinton, presumably Barack Obama, I guess we'll find out more like, what's to happen to them.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (78:22)

Again, we need full justice and accountability. I don't care if you're a former President of the United States. If you are guilty alongside Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Now, listen, they were, they were human traffickers. They weren't trafficking people, women to themselves. There are other people who are implicated here. And if you were guilty alongside of Jeffrey Epstein and Glenn Maxwell, then you deserve the same amount of justice as they've received. I would prefer not a minimum security prison. But, you know, there's certainly steps that we need to take to, to really regain trust with the American people. The American people are sick and tired. Congress just having hearings where a member gets to speak for five minutes and may or may not get an answer to a question and things may be eluded or it's under investigation and you can't get the information you really need. They want true accountability. President Trump, I believe, will have a legacy of exactly that. He will have a legacy of transparency, of delivering on promises and holding the corrupt.

Mike Johnson (79:30)

The.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (79:30)

The corrupt, corrupt criminals accountable. This is something that he knows well of. Obviously, he was trying to be implicated. The Democrats were trying to put him in a position to be implicated with Jeffrey Epstein, and Jeffrey Epstein was helping them. So, yes, you're going to see President Trump's name in this stuff, but it's all them trying to formulate a plan to take him down. They never wanted him to leave the Democrat Party, they never wanted him to run for president, and they never expected him to win and be as successful as he has. So, again, this is a distraction. The hoax is the Democrats trying to once again take President Trump down with whatever they can, and the truth will prevail and President Trump will be vindicated once again.

Benny Dalton (80:17)

So something else that might come out of this, and we assume that it's going to come out of this based on headlines like, like these, is that Jeffrey Epstein was working with Israel, was working with foreign nations and foreign intelligence operations in order to run this entrapment against world leaders, princes, presidents, American senators, celebrities and so on. Obviously, it was all for power. Obviously. We've seen the photos of Ghislaine Maxwell sitting on the throne of Buckingham Palace. So this isn't even, like, hard actually, what is going to be the reckoning of For America's Intel Services, which clearly gave Jeffrey Epstein a pass on being a pedophile.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (81:00)

Yes. So, I mean, certainly I believe that there are other world leaders who are implicated here. I don't have tangible proof of that. We do know that there are victims who have released names. Congressman Thomas Massey has said there are 20 names, one of. One of whom is a prince. And, and so, you know, we can make our own assumptions there until actual information comes out and this is. Is released. But I do believe that there are going to be global impacts from this. And if he was working with Israel, fine, hold them accountable as well. You know, as a Christian, you know, I'm not, I'm not loyal to any other government or any government at all. I'm loyal to Jesus. And, you know, he's never said for me to bend a knee to the Israeli government. You know, I think it's interesting you had, you had Ted Cruz on talking about him. Well, he wasn't on. But you were discussing Ted Cruz. And, you know, it is concerning when someone runs a campaign and makes statements saying that they will promote another country and be their strongest ally and defender above America. Now, that's not me saying that I don't support Israel, Israelis, their right to. To defend themselves and be a sovereign nation, they are our ally. But it is concerning when that is a priority for someone who is especially running for President of the United States. Now, President Trump has been the most Israel friendly president there has ever been, and he's done amazing things for them, but also he's doing great things around the world and for our country. So with the global impacts that we see from this, we're going to have to adjust to those fallouts. And maybe that means in policy as well, but we'll see when everything finally is revealed.

Benny Dalton (82:54)

Yeah, it just seems like an obvious operation in order to entrap American politicians and very powerful people in this country. And it was run, perhaps in collusion with our intelligence agencies, but certainly with the permission of foreign governments. I was told Epstein belonged to intelligence, says Alex Acosta, and to leave it alone. This is the man who could have put Jeffrey Epstein away for the rest of his life. If Alex Acosta had been able to charge Jeffrey Epstein in 2006 and 2007 with all of the available crimes, he would have faced 400 years in prison. But instead, he faced just a few months and he was able to get weekend passes. He never got put in handcuffs even. And Alex Acosta is saying that intelligence told him to back off. Well, I mean, that begs the question then, Congresswoman, like, who's the real bad guys here? Clearly, it's like Jeffrey Epstein's a horrible person who's a monster. But the real bad guys are the. Are those who didn't put that monster away. You know, we have systems in this country that say, okay, you're a monster, you're a demon, you're the. You're a devil. We're going to make sure that you don't harm innocent Americans. And our intelligence agencies didn't do that. And perhaps, or even worse, protected Jeffrey Epstein, funded Jeffrey Epstein, or allowed for Jeffrey Epstein to continue operating as he did for a decade and more after his original pedophilia conviction, after he became a sex predator. Why the hell did that happen? I feel like that, like, becomes then the next obvious question.

Mike Johnson (84:30)

Yes.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (84:30)

So was he an intelligence asset? Was he a person of interest there with the CIA, you know, within our own intelligence agencies here? To even have the rumor of that is. Is certainly alarming. And then when you see the sweetheart deal that he received by Acosta, you know, Acosta's name came up when I was talking with, with folks in the DOJ last week and seeing this is someone that we need to go after. Why was such a sweetheart deal given to him? And this is someone who needs to be hauled in front of the Oversight Committee and, and, and really have answers provided. But I mean the CIA, I don't think any, anyone there is a friend of ours. Have you ever heard of anything good coming from the CIA? I mean the more and more we learn, the more and more we lose trust in everything that we are told from, from 911 to President Trump's assassination attempt to, to even Charlie Kirk. And so, you know, in everything there is such a distrust with the American people because it always seems like there is a cover up and a sweetheart deal and no true transparency. I don't think the CIA is a redeemable institution. I'm even, I don't even know if the FBI, FBI is entirely redeemable at this point. We don't know what, what pieces of evidence have been manipulated from administration to administration. We don't know what documents are still there, what documents were ever there. Do you think that these people are really that sloppy if there's going to be a crime and a cover up, that they're going to have a detailed list and a line item appropriation from Congress to actually do the thing thing. So you know, there's, there's questions of what information has been there is still there was never there. And, and you know, it is concerning whenever you see these sweetheart deals in the past that have taken place and I'm hoping, I really, really hope that this DOJ will not be so kind. I know that there are referrals on, I want to say on Bamboo's desk, but that's where they were sent by the Oversight Committee, by Chairman James Comer. And I want to see action taken on those. I don't want to hear talk about it. I don't want to just pat ourselves on the backs and say we sent a criminal referral to some for somebody. I want to see actual action. And that's what the American people want as well.

Benny Dalton (87:04)

You're on the Oversight Committee, so you have subpoena power. You're in the majority, so you have subpoena power. Here's an article that, you know, we seem to be the only show that ever cares about this kind of stuff that says that Jeffrey Epstein was just bragging about working for the CIA. You know, this is from the. This is from the Evening Standard, and it was published when. When was this? 2000 and 2001. Okay, so this is sort of before, you know, Jeffrey Epstein became totally and completely memed and popularized in culture. And I think he was probably a little more loose in bragging about what he was doing. And so Jeffrey Epstein saying, yep, I work for the CIA. Is the CIA going to get a subpoena? Like, is anybody. Is Ratcliffe or anybody at the CIA going to have to, like, get dragged in and asked about their files on Jeffrey Epstein?

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (87:54)

I would love for that to happen. And I beg for subpoenas every. Every day that I'm here in Congress. You know, I think that we use this authority far less than we ought to. We saw Democrats abuse of the subpoena power that they held when they were in the majority. And I do feel that we are more skittish than we ought to be in serving these. But also, even within the FBI and doj, they can issue subpoenas as well. And so it doesn't just have to come from the Oversight Committee. If Cash Patel wants to issue a subpoena, well, get. Get the information that you need from whoever you need it. You know, it's. There's. There's some gray area, even with the estate and the subpoena that we issued to them. To me, it seems like the estate said, ask us for these things in a subpoena and we're happy to supply them to you. And then we asked for those things, and it seems like there's a lot more that we weren't given permission to ask for from the estate. Now, to Chairman James Comer credit, Jamie has said that they have provided even more than those things and that they are working well with him. But again, who can you trust? Trust but verify. I don't want to rely on somebody just providing a little bit extra some more crumbs. Ask them for the whole dang thing. This is a $1 billion estate. Ask for everything. Simple.

Benny Dalton (89:27)

There's so many questions, and there's so much there. And it really was an insult to the American people to just say there's. There is nothing there. And there is. And I think there's obviously some major vested interests in making sure that the entire system doesn't come crashing down, because Americans. I think what's going to eventually happen is we're going to find out that our federal government was in the business of protecting this pedophile and that our tax dollars went to protecting this pedophile. And that's going to be tough. That's going to be a tough sell for the American people. And so I say just let it burn. Right. If, and obviously, obviously the bad guys here were the Bush administration and his FBI that initially botched or covered all this up. The Obama and Biden administrations that did absolutely literally nothing and seemed to be colluding with Epstein while he was still alive or covering it up while he was dead. Bill Clinton, who had Jeffrey Epstein like, who had Jelaine Maxwell at his daughter's wedding. I mean, look at her gooning right here. They're guilty. They're guilty as hell. And then also on the CIA point, you know, it was Obama's CIA director.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (90:39)

Yes.

Benny Dalton (90:39)

Who according to these emails was like his best, the best friend of Jeffrey Epstein.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (90:43)

Yes.

Benny Dalton (90:44)

So I like, I just say out with it. I'm glad that the House is voting like this. And yeah, I mean, you know, sunlight's the best disinfectant. Right?

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (90:55)

Absolutely. And you know, I don't even think this is the only scandal that we need to be looking into this aggressively again. President Trump says that this is a distraction from the good things that have been going on and the work that we are trying to do. We still have, we have a short term CR right now. We have to get through appropriations so we don't have another shutdown. There's obviously the issue of health care that's, that's on the table right now that we are discussing and, and we need to fix. And I think anything less than completely doing away with Obamacare while we have the majority is, is unacceptable. So that's something that we need to prioritize. But you know, I mean this, this just starts to raise other questions in my mind too. You know, I've read Franktown, what, what happened with those boys there who, who was involved there. Is this another Epstein and, and you know, there's, there's things that, that we may never know the answers to, but is it because they have these deep political ties and, and we aren't supposed to know. So this is one step and getting full transparency and at the same time we need to walk and chew gum and deliver on the other promises that we all made during our campaigns that got President Trump elected with a massive mandate from the people. And, and, and we have to, we have to deliver on that or we, we don't deserve the majority in the midterm if we just sit on our hands.

Benny Dalton (92:18)

Yeah, well, well, I mean we will, yeah. Wait, waiting till the last minute on these kind of Things is really tough, but I guess we'll see what happens. Congresswoman Boebert, you should follow her. She's got 5 million subscribers right here on X. She needs no introduction or outro. You know her, you love her, follow along. And man, she's just fighting for us and the state of Colorado which is gonna have some very interesting elections here coming up. So we'll see what happens next. Godspeed, Congresswoman.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (92:50)

Thanks, Benny.

Benny Dalton (92:58)

Ladies and gentlemen, we learned some interesting things there. Stacy Plaskett. Oh, man. Bill Clinton, Barack Obama. We'll see what happens. I mean we're gonna like, we're gonna be looking at this kind of stuff. I really look forward to everything that we're gonna learn. It's gonna be terrible for our establishment, it's gonna be terrible for our intel agencies and that's gonna be a good thing. It's gonna be a good thing for us. The American people deserve this transparency. We kind of got it with the JFK documents. But I have a feeling with the moment that's happening in Congress right now and in the country, I think we're really like, we're going to, we're going to see everything without seeing stuff. And then it's going to lead to some other great questions about our allies abroad, about our intel agencies and their cover up of all this and about the nature of our federal government. I think you already know where this is headed, ladies and gentlemen. American Financing can help make sure that your house is in order.

What is, what, what was this McDonald's impact summit in Washington D.C. i didn't even know this was a thing. President Trump pledged that prices will come down in a speech to owners, operators and Suppliers of his beloved McDonald's. On Monday, Trump's address, the Fast Food Giants impact summit in D.C. comes as concerns over handling of the economy and cost of living have mounted. Prices are coming down, the president claimed. I will tell you that nobody has done what we've done in terms of pricing, says Donald Trump. Donald Trump also obviously roasting Kamala Harris and making fun of RFK Jr. In the. In the process. It was a great speech, but here we go. Here's Donald Trump starting off with his fry cook line, saying, this is the first time that a McDonald's fry cook has become president of the United States. Here we go.

Tucker Carlson (95:59)

I'm thrilled to be here with the men and the women who are really the heart and soul of one of the greatest, most admired, and most successful companies in the history of the world. Frankly, the one and only McDonald's. I've gone there a couple of times and I'm honored to stand before you as the very first former McDonald's fry cook ever to become president of the United States. And I actually was there for about 30 minutes, and that was 30 minutes longer than Kamala was there. Right. Despite her job administration, McDonald's, that didn't work out too well. And the person at McDonald's that informed us, off the record, that she never worked there, whoever you are, we appreciate that. That was very nice.

Benny Dalton (96:47)

All right. Well, ladies and gentlemen, I didn't know that it was like in it. So Donald Trump's there, there making a joke about Kamala Harris not working at McDonald's in his opening remark and then saying that he had an insider tipping the campaign off that there's no record of Kamala Harris ever working there. And one of the all time greatest blunders in political history, Kamala Harris lying about working at McDonald's leads to President Trump actually putting on a McDonald's apron in a legendary move and creating an iconic scene like this one. And then Donald Trump like breaking news there that insiders at McDonald's leaked information to his campaign. The Kamala never. Yeah, never worked there. Very good. Ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump making fun of RFK Jr. You're in the same speech. Let's go.

Tucker Carlson (97:42)

As you may have heard, I'm also one of your all time most loyal customers. I really am. Well, I think that's good. I'm pretty sure that's good. While other politicians fly around, around on campaign planes stocked with expensive catering on Trump Force One prior to ascending to Air Force One, which is quite a nice plane. Also, we served only McDonald's almost every time. On occasion we couldn't find one, which is pretty hard to believe we'd go another route, but we really did. You fed us very well. And I even got Bobby Kennedy to eat a Big Mac. And he told me he loved.

Benny Dalton (98:24)

All right, he told me he loved it. I don't think so. We actually have photographic proof that he didn't love it. But anyway, President Trump finishing off with the American dream lines. This is obviously where Trump is the strongest. And now we need obviously the policy and the numbers to follow along. But here we go.

Tucker Carlson (98:40)

An amazing 1 in 8Americans works behind the counter of a McDonald's franchise at some point in their lives. Yeah, we heard about that. I heard about that. Wasn't true in that particular case. But for tens of millions of our citizens, the road to the American dream starts beneath the golden arches. Beautiful golden arches. So to each and every one of you, thank you and congratulations on 70 years of American greatness. Congratulations.

Benny Dalton (99:13)

All right, ladies and gentlemen, we do our level headed best to keep everything positive. We have eaten McDonald's with President Trump on Trump Force One along with RFK. But as you can see here, I missed these times. These are, these were amazing times. Elon Musk and RFK Jr. And Mike Johnson in there, RFK, he says RFK loved his meal. I can prove to you, well, at least you can see him here that he maybe did not. We, we literally sat on that table on Trump Force One just a few days ago because we flew on Trump Force One, was sitting right there in Don Jr. S seat. Eric Trump was in Donald Trump's seat and there was no McDonald's. They did actually service a steak. In fact, on that plane there was no McDonald's because Eric Trump and his wife are maha and wanted something healthy on the plane instead of McDonald's. Trump demanded McDonald's. I've eaten McDonald's on that table with President Trump during the campaign. This awesome experience. And it's great to see the President. He's in good spirits. Here he is dancing after the speech there.

Tucker Carlson (100:27)

Yeah.

Benny Dalton (100:28)

And hitting it. That's the energy that wins, ladies and gentlemen. So I look forward to engaging in the fight for the future tonight at Clemson University. We will be there with Turning Point usa. It's going to be an awesome speech. It's going to be a great night. We're very much looking forward to it. Carrying forward this energy. There's going to be big topics that we talk about. Housing is what we're really going to talk about. And the seizing of the American Dream for the future. Ladies and gentlemen, our verse of the day from Matthew 7:15. Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. A good example, ladies and gentlemen, for what you see right now happening with the conservative movement. It makes me very angry, and that's something that frustrates me a lot. We're going to fight very hard for America first, the MAGA movement on this program. We do not want it to fracture and atomize. We like. We like strong debate, but we don't want people to crash out burnout or black pill. And so in order to keep the energy going, you have to have big wins. And so that's what we're going to be working with directly, with the administration, with outside groups. We're here to win. And the motivation is pretty simple. Our kids and their American future. That's the way it's always been. During the show. Let's just see. During the show, I've gotten texts from people about their. I've gotten Christmas tree photos. Let's do one more here. Let's do one more from a viewer. You send us your Christmas tree photos, we'll put them up on the program. Here we go. Here is a beautiful Christmas tree. I love seeing all these trees up before Thanksgiving. From Lace Krupa Larudson. This is Lace Laruson from Iowa. My beloved Iowa. Love my ornaments as a full tree with the Christmas ornaments. Look at them all. They look amazing, ladies and gentlemen. Well done. Well, well done. Lace LaRoodson from Iowa. Beautiful looking tree. We're gonna do rate. We're gonna do rate. Your tree. We'll do rate. We'll bring back rate to your Christmas tree. You can email us your Christmas tree, we'll put it up on the show. You can of course, get your Christmas ornaments today inside of The Benny Store. $5 each. Made by American patriots right here in the United States of America. No inflation around here. Same price. Same price last year. Okay, keep it rolling. Ladies and gentlemen, remember that we will win. We march together. The victory is ours. Keep going, Patriots. It's your boy, Benny. See you break the dam. Release all of the Epstein files.
