The Benny Show – November 4, 2025
Episode: Trump Releases ALL Evidence Against James Comey in Nuclear Legal BOMBSHELL! It's DARK, US in SHOCK
Host: Benny Johnson
Guests: John Solomon, Julie Kelly, Rep. Darrell Issa, Mark Mitchell
Episode Overview
On Election Day 2025, Benny Johnson dedicates his show to unpacking a seismic development: the Trump administration has released a “nuclear bombshell” of evidence implicating former FBI Director James Comey in orchestrating and covering up the Russia collusion hoax. Featuring extensive discussion and analysis from investigative journalists (John Solomon, Julie Kelly), polling experts (Mark Mitchell), and Rep. Darrell Issa, the episode focuses on the trove of notes, emails, and government documents newly revealed in a court filing. These documents suggest Comey knowingly participated in efforts to undermine Donald Trump, aided leaks to media, and attempted to destroy evidence—all while expecting to work for a Clinton administration.
The show explores the implications for the FBI, the “deep state,” and the legacy of those involved, as well as the potential for superseding indictments as a result of these revelations.

3. Five Bombshells Outlined by John Solomon
[22:35–25:24] John Solomon interview clip
- John Solomon succinctly explains the major revelations:
- Comey used personal email for government business (the very behavior Clinton was accused of).
- He anticipated working for President-elect Clinton and expected her gratitude.
- Directed and sanctioned media leaks, contradicting sworn testimony.
- Evidence was hidden in burn bags, and found in secret FBI rooms—suggesting an active coverup.

Quote:
"He was hit by a boomerang today."
— John Solomon [24:31]
4. Handwritten Notes: Key Players and Deciphering the ‘Mitch’ & ‘Kerry’ Code
[35:23–38:42, 91:21–96:09] Benny Johnson, John Solomon, Julie Kelly
- The panel discusses how Comey’s notes mention “JB” (believed to be John Brennan), “Kerry” (likely Secretary of State John Kerry), and "Mitch" (believed to be Stefan Halper, intelligence asset involved in laundering the dossier).
- The notes also reference “Trump finances - debts for Moscow,” echoing Steele dossier claims, suggesting high-level State Department (Kerry), CIA (Brennan), and FBI (Comey) coordination.
- This potentially places the State Department at the center of the origins and distribution of the Steele dossier.
Quote:
“Was John Kerry in this meeting where they talked about the dossier...? I think this may represent the first time that John Kerry was involved in one of these high-level meetings to discuss the plan to smear Donald Trump.”
— Julie Kelly [91:58]
5. The Deep State, Media Laundering, and Superseding Indictments
[26:05–44:22] Panel Discussion
- Extensive evidence of Comey and associates laundering classified and confidential information through friendly media channels.
- Comey's denials before Congress are directly contradicted by his own notes and emails.
- Prosecutors are reportedly considering superseding indictments based on these revelations, including possible charges for obstruction of justice related to the attempted destruction of evidence.
Quote:
“You could face 10 years in prison for lying to Congress if convicted. But more importantly, you’re going to get superseding indictments here... James Comey was leaking classified information.”
— Benny Johnson [19:25]
6. Congressional and Legal Fallout
[60:09–70:28] Rep. Darrell Issa Interview
- Rep. Issa discusses Congress’ ongoing legislative investigation and its limited power to enforce compliance from executive agencies.
- Asserts that the true impact of the collusion hoax was to cripple Trump’s first term and undermine democracy, highlighting how officials created “a backup plan to stop him if he won the election fair and square.”
Quote:
“There should never be this kind of conspiracy, and it should never be allowed by people who otherwise wouldn’t break the law to happen.”
— Rep. Darrell Issa [69:01]
7. Polling, Election Dynamics, and Voter Sentiment
[72:20–86:34] Mark Mitchell (Rasmussen) Interview
- Updates on current state polling in New Jersey and Virginia, skepticism about Republican chances given demographic shifts and turnout patterns.
- Discusses broader themes: Gen Z’s economic populism, dissatisfaction with both parties, and homeownership obstacles—a generational crisis.
- Describes collapse in confidence in Congress and how both parties contributed to the current state of “kleptocracy.”
Quote:
“This is the future of American politics and the 18 to 29 year olds. Would it be better if President Trump spent more time dealing with domestic issues? Yeah, 68% to 18—like that’s the highest signal by age as well.”
— Mark Mitchell [86:34]
8. Decade-Long Cover-up and DC Dysfunction
[98:41–115:07] Julie Kelly Analysis
- Kelly calls this the “greatest political scandal of all time,” highlighting Comey and Brennan as central architects, and describes the difficulty of exposing the full story due to bureaucratic sabotage and stonewalling, even during Trump’s first term.
- The FBI’s attempted destruction of evidence is seen as both scandalous and indicative of a system-wide “internal insurrection.”
- The current progress is credited in part to new DOJ leadership willing to pursue the truth, but also underscores how close the previous conspirators came to "getting away with it."
Quote:
“There has never been a greater abuse of our country’s law enforcement, intelligence, [and] diplomatic resources than we saw in 2016 and 2017.”
— Julie Kelly [99:33]
9. The Road Ahead: Grand Conspiracy, Indictments, and Accountability
[112:17–116:33] Panel Discussion
- Panelists discuss the likelihood of further indictments (including possible charges against John Kerry), the opportunity to finally interrogate key witnesses, and the significance of the new information for ongoing grand jury investigations.
- They call for transparency, pressure for Congress and DOJ to go further, and the public to stay engaged and demand justice.
Quote:
“They never ever thought Donald Trump would win, that they would see an FBI director Cash. They never in their wildest dreams thought they would be in the situation they are right now.”
— Julie Kelly [112:03]
Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments
- “It is precisely the vindication that President Trump has been looking for. As President Trump has described how the deep state rigged the election against him for the better part of a decade now. And he has been proven correct. In the handwriting of James Comey today.”
— Benny Johnson [16:55] - “I think he's working with his lawyers in preparation for, for potentially being indicted because Jim Jordan... sent a pretty detailed and carefully written criminal referral that really lays out a real criminal case against [John Brennan].”
— John Solomon [45:18] - “It took us to 2025 — three presidential elections later — to find out what really happened in 2016 and the beginning of the first Trump presidency. I think that's unacceptable to most people.”
— John Solomon [49:43]

The language is raw, populist-conservative, unapologetically combative toward perceived “deep state” actors and the mainstream media.
