Dan Bongino
Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host, Dan Bongino. Hey, I was going to start with something totally different yesterday because we had some breaking news on my radio show yesterday. We interviewed this New Jersey congressman who's been all over the news. This guy Jeff Andrew. And this drone ufo, UAP story just getting crazy. There's so many different theories. But what's kind of weird about it is it doesn't matter what theory you throw out there. Somebody jumps down your throat and they're invested somehow in another one and they want to kill you for it. I'm going to plow ahead. I'm going to do what I want to do based on the facts. But I got something else in the beginning and I'm going to get to that. I got a lot more.

Let me tell you, I had my Helix mattress for several years now. I noticed how great I'm sleeping throughout the night, how energized I feel in the morning. The energy gives me enough strength to get through long days. Helix is the award winning mattress brand recommended by many, me included for improving sleep. I've been sleeping better. I had to scrap my old mattress. Had it forever. Got a new one. Got one in every room in my house from Helix. Sleep has never been better. Feel less aches and pains after sleeping on my Helix.

So I told you they were always Going to turn on each other. You know, my cannibalism theory of politics, it's very simple. It's the right doesn't give a shit about the left. We ignore these people and make fun of them. That's why the mainstream media liberal hack goons are losing their audience. And we. Because we're right and they're wrong, so we can make fun of them. You can't make fun of someone if you're always wrong and they're always right, because then you just look, like, bitter that you're right. You get what I'm saying? We're on the right side of it. So as we ignore these people and they try to cancel us. I told you we were going to tune them out. But because they can't give up canceling each other and making people look stupid, because that's what liberalism is. It's a hierarchy and trying to subjugate people that they're eventually going to cannibalize and eat each other as they try to seek power and authority in beating up people politically and otherwise. You get what I'm talking about here? You see in action. Tell me here, tell me here. This isn't famed neurosurgeon Dr. Jill Biden, one of the legendary medical doctors anywhere on earth. Dr. Jill Biden. Tell me she's not throwing shade at Kamala Harris here with this clip. This is the cannibalism theory in action. This just happened. Check this out. I hope that you all feel that sense of, you know, peace and light and that just for a moment when you leave here today that you feel, I don't know, a little. A sense of joy. Because I think we all need. Like this, you know, we all need to feel joy now during this time of the season. During. Just during this time. So, anyway, okay, now I'll start. You're all reading into that. Oh, no, no. They're not reading into it. They didn't need to read into it. It read all itself by itself. They were all reading into it. Necessary. Someone in the chat just brought up Uncle Brosie. I had totally forgotten about Uncle Brosie and the cannibals eating Uncle Brosie. I forgot that the Uncle Brosie clip. I just wanted to throw it out there because our batting average, Justin, is what, 1,000 kids? That is correct. I told you they were going to start eating themselves alive. And it's little things like this is. How do you think she wasn't taking a shot at Kamala Harris's Ren and Stimpy? Happy, happy, joy, joy, happy. Happy, joy, joy, joy. You know, we always give Stimson J. Cat a shout out, but we leave Ren out of it. There's Ren Hawke. There you go. Say hello, fellas. Happy, happy. Joy, joy, joy. There you go. I'll leave them up until we play this video here. So we had some breaking news in a radio show yesterday. If you missed any of the show, Congressman Jeff Van Drew, this growing UFO UAP drone scandal in New Jersey. And folks, listen, I get it. Everybody's got an opinion. For the listeners out there who seem upset at me for having an opinion on the matter, you're entitled to yours, too. I'm not upset at you. This is not symmetric. You're upset at me. I'm not upset at you. If you have a different opinion. It's this. That's fine. That's perfectly okay. However, it's the Dan Bongino show. I'm gonna give you my opinion based on what I believe are a series of facts and data points. I believe it is some foreign adversary doing this. If it's not in New Jersey, it's elsewhere. We know about the China spy balloon. Fact. We know about key sources telling us about China buying land about around US Military facilities. Fact. What the hell do you think they're doing this for? They're doing it to surveil the United States in case there's some kind of a world war. So they have an idea of what our critical infrastructure looks like. None. This isn't hard. You can have whatever theory you want. I'm just telling you. Occam's razor. This is something foreign, not something necessarily exotic. And they know there's nothing we're going to do about it. So is it Iran? Is there a ship offshore? I don't know. I tend to think more. Lean more towards China. Iran's got its own issues right now. But here was Congressman Van Drew from New Jersey on my show yesterday, and he's sticking by this story. So here, check this out. And you can make your own decision. Take a listen. So where do we stand with this? Are you getting any answers? I mean, you're a sitting congressman. Are they. Are they giving you the runaround, too? So here's the deal. Yes, they're giving everybody the runaround. So you're. You're correct. It is scary at any level because if they know what's going on and they are hiding it, that's wrong. If they don't know what's going on and they are at that level of incompetence, which is very possible. That is terrible and that is frightening as well. Here's what I know. I know that there are no commercial enterprises within the continental United States that have this capability that we know of. There are no hobbyists that have this capability that we know of. We can't imagine that the US Government would be flying all these drones, some of them that are the size of minibuses in the air that we know of. We can't imagine the US government would do that and scare its people. What I do know is that I've been contacted because I am the vice chair of the Transportation Committee and I sit on the committee that the Aviation subcommittee that deals with all this, that deals with drones and that I have been contacted by well placed high level sources with high security clearances that do not want to know, tell who they are. Understandably so. They're concerned, but they're also concerned that this isn't coming out, that in the port of Iran that one of their mother ships had left weeks ago. We do know that and we know for sure that Iran does have these capabilities through China because they're dealing with them. These high level sources that I have believe that there's a very real significant possibility that there is an Iranian mothership out there and that it is releasing these high level sophisticated drones. Now, Marley B. 1947 says in the chat, it's their job to know. Marley B. 1947 thank you. That's the point. Is it Iran? I don't know. Is it a mothership offshore? I have no idea. My sources haven't told me that at all. I'm basing it on simple evidence that I think it's a foreign actor because a foreign actor's done this before. The spy balloon. China. We know the story. Who's buying land around military facilities? China. What do you think they're buying land for? Because they want to be sharecroppers. They're buying land because they're surveilling the United States in case they got to go to war with us. When in doubt, always pick the explanation that requires you to assume the least, not the most. You're free to have your own opinion on it. Now, you know my rule with the left, right? When the left comes out and has a visceral immediate reaction along with their deep state media allies to something immediately, an immediate reaction to something. What does it tell you? Always how many times I got to say this? Bongino, army represent, Fire it up. In the chat, always measure the effectiveness of an appointee. A bill, a message by the Ferocity of the response on the other side. Immediately after this, a press conference gets called at the Pentagon. Not after my show. He had said that before. Congresswoman Van Drew, the Pentagon calls a press conference and there's this question from Katherine Herridge, who we know is kind of not Katherine Herridge. I'm sorry, Katherine Herridge, a great reporter, whatever it is, Griffin, she's totally in there with the Pentagon people. It's like this is to me just seems like an obvious setup, this whole thing. I want you to listen to them, I mean, feverishly deny this, but they just told us from the White House hours before this. They don't know what they are, so. They don't know what they are, but they know it's not that. Can someone explain now? I'm sure it's a foreign adversary. Check this out. Representative Jeff Van Drew, who is a Republican from New Jersey was just on the air saying that Iran launched a mothership probably about a month ago that connected contains these drones and that that mothership is off the coast of the east coast of the United States. Is there any truth to that? There is not any truth to that. There is no Iranian ship off the coast of the United States and there's no so called mothership launching drones towards the United States. Folks, I don't understand something. Someone in the chat, please explain this to me. Explain it to me like I'm still wearing diapers. Pretend I'm really stupid for a second, please. The White House, State police in New Jersey, the governor, local mayors, local cops, nobody has an answer about what this is. No one. All they can tell you is we don't know. So if you don't know, how can you draw a conclusion that it's not Iran? How do you draw a conclusion that it's not a danger? How? I don't understand. If you don't know now, you may say, well, they can prove it because we have no evidence that there's an Iranian ship offshore. You don't? Ok. Is it coming out of a cargo container shipped from somewhere? I mean, they're drones, folks. They're bullshitting us. I'm telling you, I am. The batting average on this show is a freaking thousand. If you watch, you know, this is probably a foreign actor. These deep state people in the Pentagon and elsewhere don't want to acknowledge our failure to do anything about basic aerial surveillance to technology because they don't want to look weak. Someone sending us a message before Trump gets into office, this is what we can do to you guys because they're afraid of what happens when Trump gets in there. So they're embarrassing Biden right now. Right. And it's clear that the swamp, the deep state swamp, is desperately trying to explain this away, not by telling you what it is, but by telling you what it isn't. All right. I spent a lot of time on this yesterday, but this story just seems to be growing legs by the minute. And if we get any updates, you'll hear them on the radio show. But I'm telling you folks, this is a serious story because if they're lying because their security is inadequate over the airspace, it's a freaking scandal. And if they're not lying and they don't know what's flying in the skies despite multi trillions of dollars of government security assets around the country, then we've got an even bigger problem. Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday was a good day though. The winning continues. More, more, more. Just keep it coming, keep it rolling. Let that more roller coaster keep going up and down and up and down because I am having a grand old time post election, waiting eagerly for Donald Trump to raise his right hand as the victories pile up. What happened yesterday? Well, what happened yesterday is our disgraced FBI Director Christopher Wray, which by the way, if this January 6th inspector general report comes out later on the show and I get to cover it on radio, if it comes out today, I don't think it's a coinky dink that this guy announces his resignation yesterday because there may be a lot of dirty little details on there. Here is Fox reporting on Christopher Wray, disgraced FBI director now, thankfully for the sake of the country, resigning. Good, great. Good ridden. See you later. Don't let the door hit you in the ass. Check this out. FBI Director Christopher Wray has announced that he is going to be ending his tenure as the FBI director earlier than the end of his 10 year term, which again is not surprising as Donald Trump has said he wants Cash Patel to head up the FBI in the new administration. David Spunt live at the Justice Department with the breaking news for us. David? Well, John Christopher Wray, the FBI director, is making this announcement right now in an all staff town hall with thousands of FBI employees across the country. He says now is his time to go. No, now isn't the time to go. Time for you to go was seconds after you got hired. I mean, this guy's practically worse than Jim Comey. The level of malfeasance and misfeasance we've seen in the FBI since this guy's been in charge Folks, it's important now that we don't let sleeping dogs lie. Okay? Christopher Wray's FBI was responsible for a lot of malicious, I believe, illegal behavior and certainly unconstitutional behavior. And if we let it go, what's the problem? Well, the problem is it's going to happen again because there's no penalty for it. If you let people in the FBI steal elections and interfere in elections and there's no penalty, then what's going to stop them from doing it again? The answer is nothing. Here's just a little bit of Christopher Wray's greatest misses because he has no greatest hits. This guy's been a disgrace during his time at the FBI, but these are things I am not going to let go. He still will not admit that on January 6th. The only thing that Democrats ever want to talk about January 6, January 6, January 6. They act like the country stuck in this. January 6, like Tesseract and can't leave it. He will not admit that there were FBI sources in the crowd, despite the fact I am telling you. Look at me, please look. I have a federal agent source who has shown me pictures. There were feds in the crowd on January 6th. That's an absolute fact. There's no disputing it. Just come clean. He won't remember this. Check this out. Did you have confidential human sources dressed as Trump supporters inside the Capitol on January 6th prior to the doors being opened? Again, I had to be very careful. It should be a no. Can you not tell the American people, no. We did not have confidential human sources dressed as Trump supporters positioned inside the Capitol. Gentleman's time has expired. You should not read anything into my decision not to share information. How many individuals were either FBI employees or people that the FBI had made contact with were in the January 6 entry of the Capitol and surrounding area? So I really need to be careful here talking about where we have or have not used confidential human sources. Was there one or more. Was there one or more individuals that would fit that description on January 6th that were in or around the Capitol? I believe there is a filing in one of the January six cases that can provide a little more information about this, and I'm happy to see if we can follow back up with you. I just want an answer. Was there one or more? I mean, you would know if there was at least one individual who worked for the FBI who entered the Capitol on that day? I can't. Again, I just can't speak to that here, folks. He can speak to it. He chooses not to. He doesn't want you to know this. Do you understand why someone in the chat beat me to the punch on this one? Be quick. Do a little De La Hoya on me or something. Do you know why he won't admit this even though everybody knows it to be true at this point? It's already been publicly reported. You want to know why? And it's going to come out later today, too. Because if you find out that there may have been people working with the F.B.I. now, don't assume they're all I'm telling you. There were federal agents in the crowd. That's a fact. Everybody got it. So I don't want my words to be misconstrued. There were definitely federal agents in the crowd and probably a lot of them. That's not so much, I think what they're hiding. Okay. There are always counter surveillance people and stuff in crowds everywhere. That's not even news. Inauguration Day, there's going to be feds all over the place in the crowd. They're sitting there working counter surveillance, looking for stuff. I get it. That's not the scandal here, folks. This is what I think a lot of the reporters are missing. What I want to know is were there FBI assets in the crowd? In other words, people pretending to be, say, the proud boys or something else working for the FBI who were there specifically to gin up and agitate and provoke violence. That's the question I want answered. And then with federal agents nearby watching the whole thing. That's what I want to know. And that's the question. I know some people, Julie's asking and Darren, but a lot of others are missing. That's the reason he won't say it. And by the way, oh, I can't say it enough. Right. Always measure the success of something. In other words, pushing Christopher Wray out, which Donald Trump did, by saying Cash Patel was going to replace him. By the response of your political opponents. Folks, who is the worst deep stater ever on the media side? Deep state, Kendallian Fusion, Ken, who the Intercept noted is the CIA's like, mop up guy, Ken Delaney, and NBC is a mouthpiece for the deep state. You might as well consider this guy a de facto intelligence officer of the United States. This guy is the mouthpiece when a deep state wants to say something. They say to him they are very upset about Christopher Wray stepping aside because they know the rocks are going to get overturned. Listen to Fusion, Ken. And this is how, you know, replacing him with Cash Patel was a really good idea. Watch this. And this really marks the End of what was a delicate dance for Christopher Wray where he tried for years to keep the FBI away from partisan politics and stay off of Donald Trump's enemies list. Even as the FBI was running investigations of Mr. Trump. That may be the single dumbest thing I've ever heard on television. Christopher Wray tried to keep the FBI out of partisan politics. Is that by investigating pro lifers, Moms for Liberty, MAGA hat wearers, people who say the word based. Is that why inserting feds and fed assets in the crowd on January 6, is that hiding the identity of pipe Bullshit, Ken. Bullshit. We have a lot of bullshit flags we throw off and this is a big bullshit flag so heavy I can't even throw it now. You know, always measure the effectiveness by the response of your political opponents. When you hear stuff like that, you know the deep state is freaking out. I want a couple. I'm going to show you a couple more things about Christopher Wray because now that he's walking out the door, I want answers. And Cash Patel is hopefully going to get them at the FBI because we cannot reestablish faith in our FBI if we don't get the answers to these questions. I got them coming up for you next quick break.

Phone companies dispute FBI testimony on the pipe bomb suspect. Key lawmaker reveals the lawmakers, Barry Loudermilk, a really good Republican, Republican member of the House of Representatives. Long story short, if you're new to the Dan Bongino show, pipe bomb gets placed at the DNC on January 6th. Kamala Harris is at the DNC. Why? Kamala Harris was at the Capitol. No, she wasn't. She was at. She was for a little bit. She was at the dnc. Nobody's explained to this day why they find a pipe bomb outside. Everybody's buried the story. The FBI is claiming they have video of the pipe bomber talking on a cell phone late night prior. Really? Well, whose cell phone was it? You can triangulate. They said, I don't know. The phone company told us the records were corrupted. Really? After Donald Trump won the election, as if on cue, the phone company says they weren't corrupted. We've got the records. In other words, ladies and gentlemen, you understand they know who this person is and they just don't want to tell you. You understand that, right? Let's hope we get an answer about that. Christopher Wray's not going to give it to you because the guy is a buffoon, that's why. And he's a phony and a fake and a fraud. And I hope he lives the rest of his life outside of politics because this guy was just really, really bad at this. Here, I want you to watch this. This is Tom Massie, fantastic congressman from Kentucky. He's asking Christopher Wray about this specific thing in the phone records. I want an answer from this, and hopefully Cash Patel is going to get it. Who the hell is this guy? The pipe bomber guy? You know who it is. We have the phone records and you're lying about them. Watch this. Exchange. Some of the information that we found in that interview was that phone data that could have helped to identify the pipe bomber was corrupted, was unusable. He also wasn't sure who found or how the second bomb was found at the dnc. Do you know how the second bomb was found at the dnc? And when do you plan on answering our letter? Well, as to the letter, I will work with the department to make sure we can figure out what information we can provide. As you know, this is a very active, ongoing investigation, and there are some restrictions on that, but we will. We can handle classified information and we fund your department. And so you need to provide that. It's not. Respectfully, it's not an issue of Classification. It's an issue of commenting on ongoing criminal investigations which is something that by long standing department policy we are restricted in doing. And in fact the last administration actually strengthened those policies. Part partly that's not our policy though and we fund you. So let's move on. I could. Do you know how the second bond. Do you. Can you tell us how the second pipe bomb was found at the DNC? Again, I'm not going to get into that here. 900 days ago is when this happened and you said you had total confidence we'd apprehend the subject. Folks, you understand how full of shit this guy is. He keeps falling back on this. We can't comment. An ongoing investigation. You have what you're claiming is a major. You, the FBI, deep staters. You're saying it. You're telling us this was a massive Chewbacca led insurrection that almost led to the downfall of the United States. Have you not you arrested 700 people over it? That's how serious you told us this was. You've got a ringleader, a guy who planted a bomb on January 6th. You know who it is. You don't want to tell the nation. Think about it folks. You knew the identity of all of these people involved in all these other crimes instantly. Put them up, be on the lookout for. They don't want it. There's no BOLO or anything. Have you thought about that? They have the name of the guy and they just don't want to tell you why because it's one of them. It is definitely an inside job, 100%. They know the name. They know the name. They have the phone records of the guy on the phone. He's the only one there. It gets even worse. Right after Kamala Harris arrives, some guy walks up and finds the bomb, finds the bomb and goes over and talks to the cops and secret Services. Hey, there's a bomb there. You would think the FBI would be pretty open. Yeah, we interviewed this person, we interviewed the pipe bomber, all this stuff. Listen to Christopher Wray, who again cannot answer a simple question. This guy is garbage. He is a lying fraud. He is involved and is knee deep in one of the biggest scandals in American history involving January 6th. Listen to this. If that person found the pipe bomb, would they be a suspect? Well, again, I don't want to speculate about specific individuals. I will tell you that we have done thousands of interviews, reviewed something like 40,000 video files of which this is one. Assess 500 something tips. Have you interviewed that person? We, we have conducted all logical investigative Steps and interviewed all logical individual individuals at this. Then you need. It's 900 days. You need to tell us what you found because we're finding stuff you haven't released into the public. I can't believe people fall for this guy's bullshit. Lefties. I'm going to move on to Cash in a second because Cash is asking all the right questions. Cash Patel, who is going to be. Who's very likely right now to be his successor at the FBI. Even if you're a lefty and you're really stupid, you're one of the liberals listening to this show that has been vaccinated to facts and has a skull 72/13th. Nick, I'm just asking you a simple question. You told us. Right? You told us. Folks in the chat tell me I'm wrong. Did the left not tell us this is the worst insurrection in human history? Chewbacca was going to be the viceroy of the northeastern territories. The whole country was going to fall. Worse than Pearl Harbor. Worse than the Civil War. You told us that. We were like that. Seems like just a tad bit of hyperbole there for a riot. That seems like a tad bit hyperbolic. You now have a suspect. You could put a B on the lookout for the MAGA terrorist. Put his picture everywhere. Bolo. Be on the lookout for this guy. You know who he is. And strangely, they won't tell us. Liberals. I know you're dumb, but really don't. You aren't even. You with your. You know, your general lack of aptitude and achievement in life. Aren't you saying to yourself right now, you know what? That damn bonjito is not crazy. That is kind of weird. I mean, we did tell them MAGA terrorists were going to destroy the country. And now we've got an opportunity to put out a BOLO for a MAGA terrorist, and we're not doing that. So. It's so weird. It's almost like they're hiding something. Right, because they are. Not everything's an inside job. This one is 100%. Not even 99.5. Wait till cash gets in there. By the way. This guy's asking all the right questions about that and more in Ukraine. Money, too. People have questions. We want answers. We pay for this stuff. The FBI and everything else. Quick break.

Thanks Jenny Sell. We appreciate it. This is his likely successor at the FBI. This is a no bullshit guy I have personally vouched for. The deep state lib accounts went crazy. They got Their asses kicked again online as they all got exposed. I love it. I am sitting at. We have conquered and vanquished so many losers. I tell you, you stick with me, we will always point out the losers and the zeros. I told you a bunch of deep state lib accounts were terrified of Cash Patel because they're deep state libs. They're running under anonymous names. They're liberals. They're trying to destroy Cash Patel. Because Cash Patel is not only gonna look into the J6 stuff, the Spygate stuff, the collusion hoax stuff. Cash Patel is also gonna look into what has been going on with a lot of this money we're transferring overseas. Ladies and gentlemen, is some of this being used for corrupt activities? Folks, let me be clear. What's happened to the Ukrainians is an absolute stain on humankind. If Russia would stop fighting, there'd be peace. Ukraine stops fighting. There's no Ukraine, period. However, Ukrainians, key Ukrainian lawmakers, were knee deep in this Russia collusion hoax. There's zero doubt about that. And there's been almost no accountability. That has nothing to do with the war portion. But this does. We're sending a lot of money over there, folks. We're sending money for a war effort. Okay? Whether you agree with it or not, it's there. And if it's going to go there, it better damn well fund weapons acquisition and not fund corrupt activities. Ukraine doesn't have the best record here and it's our responsibility to look into it. Here's another reason. The deep state lib accounts are terrified of Cash Patel. Check this out. I've asked this Congress to be to investigate where has this money gone? The American people are owed that answer because it's our money, it's our taxable value. And there's a lot of really good reason to be concerned because, you know, Ukraine was known as a place of corruption, a place for money laundering. Yeah. It's not like we sent a billion dollars, as if that was even a small number to begin with. Right? We've sent 100 times that to one country. I don't know how this Congress is allowed to get away with it. Do you see why the deep state accounts and the lib accounts are terrified of this guy? I'm telling you, you're being played. That's why we always win. Because we know exactly who to warn you about. And then they freak out and they panic when we expose them because they continue to get their asses handed to him. They're afraid of this guy. That's why because there's billions of dollars at stake to going like this, looking the other way. So what do you do? You go anonymously attack him online. Cash Patel secretly got martian jeans in him. He's got to infiltrate the weather and idiots believe it. They're afraid of this guy. This guy's been openly talking about questions you've had forever. You may say to yourself, fairly or not, right? You may say, well, fairly or that's a poor way to say. But you may say to yourself, I disagree with Ukrainian spending. But even if you do disagree on funding the war in Ukraine, even if you do, can we at least agree if we're going to send our money there, then it should at least be spent on what we say we should spend it on by this weapons system. Not like buy off a politician, right? Even if you disagree, this is why they hate this guy. Please trust me. I told you our batting average is 1000 here. We have vanquished many a foe on exactly this toy with the Bajino army. You're going to always lose. There's a reason we're the number one live stream. It's because we're always on the right side here, man. It's because we do our homework and we obey the Bongino rule and we don't fall for sucker stuff online, folks. Pete Hegseth. The war on Pete Hegseth is continuing as well. Pete is another victim of this. Maybe not in the. Not in a way. Cash, but Cash Patel. There's a different attack going on on Cash Patel by deep staters and libs. The attack on Pete Hegseth has a lot to do with people who profit off an endless war machine. I'm not throwing out silly talking about defense industry sucks really. Defense. Some of the defense industry makes some of the firearms. I have my own house. They don't suck. What does suck is when the defense industry gets an outside kind of elaborated megaphone like voice in our foreign policy. We didn't elect the defense industry to do anything. There is a lot of money in the war machine. Pete Eggseth is going to ask about these foreign interventions. We're engaged. And he's going to ask a critical question. Why are we there? Nobody wants people asking questions. They want the Mark Milley type and whatever who are just like, yeah, okay, whatever, let's do it. So of course the media is trying to dismantle Pete Hegseth because they're in bed with a lot of these lobbyists and others and ProPublica, which is a basically a left wing Goon site was trying to attack Pete Hegseth with a false report. Show up. Show the tweet, if you could, that he was not accepted to West Point in 1999. Really? So Pete says, here is my letter of acceptance signed by the West Point superintendent, Lieutenant General Daniel Christman of the U.S. army. So ProPublica, of course, which is going to do extra scrutiny on Pete Hegseth, unlike they would do on any left winger out there, because they seem to focus exclusively on conservative leaning Supreme Court justices. And people like Pete Hegseth got absolutely wrecked. Now ProPublica is saying, hey, we were doing. I'll give you their side. Because unlike ProPublica we try to do actual reporting. ProPublica is saying, hey, this is journalism. We heard that Pete Hegseth was lying about West Point. We reached out to West Point. West Point told us on the record he did not apply there. They're saying, clearly we were wrong, therefore we didn't publish a story. Folks, this is about intent. You know what they were doing. And now the West Point was forced to issue a statement. A review of our records indicates Hegseth was offered admission to West Point 1999, but did not attend. They say it was an incorrect statement from whatever their admissions department or whatever it is. Folks, I'm sorry, but I just don't believe any of it. I just don't. I'm so tired of the media attack jobs on these people. They fabricated a narrative in their head. In real life, it turned out to be false. They were emailing around about this thing. This isn't the kind of scrutiny left wingers get. You know, however much you hate the media, I promise you it is not enough. They will never call out left wing bs. Here's a perfect example. I want to contrast these two stories. I put that first for a reason. Here we have a story that's making the news. And ProPublica was trying to advance before they got shut down about a completely false, ridiculous story. Pete Hegseth did not get accepted to West Point. Absolutely fake and false, ok? Because they're subjecting Pete to scrutiny. They never subject the left to. Here's an example of something ProPublica. I'd be very impressed if they did this story. Here's Bill Clinton on the View yesterday, the other day. Yesterday, the day before, it doesn't matter. Bill Clinton's a guest on the View. He says something on the View patently false, debunked by every serious journalist out there, including unserious journalists like the Washington Post. He's Talking about Hillary Clinton in her emails. Do you see a concerted left wing effort right now, today to attack him like they attack Hag Said? No, you don't. They're going to let the whole thing go because the left wing said it. Because there's two different standards. Actually, it's one standard. We're in charge and you're not. Check this out. Do you think it would be wise of President Biden to preemptively pardon any potential targets? What about your wife, Hillary Clinton? She apparently is on Cash Patel's list. What? Yeah, well, they got a problem with her because first, she didn't do anything wrong, of course. Second, she followed the rules exactly as they were written. Third, Trump's State Department. Trump's State Department found. Remember how the emails were such a big issue in 2016? Trump's State Department found that Hillary sent and received exactly zero classified emails on her personal device. It was a whole. It was a made up, phony story. Yeah. Do you see the hierarchy system where when you're the left, right, the media and you're in charge, you don't give a shit about looking like hypocrites. You just protect your own because you're insulating the top from power so they can subjugate people beneath them. Washington Post, Glenn Kessler. I mean, you want to talk about left, Even these left wing lunatics, Clinton's claims about receiving or sending classified material on a private email system, they had to update the fact check to a new four Pinocchio rating from two. That's how much bullshit he just said right there, folks. She did receive classified information. They wiped the markings off some of the documents. Everybody knows that. But because he's a left winger, he's protected. This is why they are so afraid of AI. You get where I'm going with this? They have a massive multibillion dollar international effort going on right now. The left, to stop people like Bill Clinton from getting actually fact checked while attacking people like Pete Hegseth for facts that don't exist. And what they do is when something comes out they don't like, they just label it misinformation or disinformation as a way to censor it. This is a multibillion dollar business. Censorship for them. Here's Molly Hemingway on Fox describing the hundreds of millions of dollars that went into this in the Biden administration. Trying to censor people. They never, ever, ever can have you see the truth. They're afraid you'll never vote Democrat again. Check this out. All right, let's Talk about misinformation and how much money is being spent on it. The Biden administration collectively has spent $267 million to combat misinformation. Look at the increase in spending from 2017 when just $316,000 was spent on it. It topped out in 2022 at $75.8 million. The administration says, oh, we had to spend this money because so many people were saying things that were wrong about COVID Well, yeah. And some of that came from the government. Well, John, this is absolutely one of the most important issues facing the country right now. We have federal agencies engaged in the suppression of speech and debate that the federal government disagrees with. That is in no way the job of the federal government to weigh in on how one, what Americans are saying and how they talk about it. They put it under the guise of fighting misinformation or disinformation. Fact checking. They claim they're doing news literacy. It is a complete violation of the First Amendment. The amount of money going into it is amazing, folks. The censorship business is a staple of current liberal left wing politics. Why would you have to censor people if you felt like the information you were putting out there was factually accurate? Why? I don't understand. Why are you censoring people on the pipe bomber? Why are you censoring people on Covid and Mask? Why are you censoring people on January 6th and how many feds are in the crowd? Why are you censoring people on Bill Clinton? Why are you censoring people on Pete Hickseth? Why? They're doing it because they were afraid you were going to see the truth. This is what bothers them about AI. I promised you yesterday a follow up to this segment. This is fascinating. This is fascinating. This is. This guy, Marc Andreessen, big tech investor, played a clip from yesterday talking about how if you missed yesterday's clip, you can watch the podcast. But the gist of it was that he was investing in some AI companies and the government came to him and said, don't put your money in there. We're going to control all the AI anyway. Don't even bother. And he was like, wait, what? What do you mean you guys are going to control AI? Here's a follow up to this where he's talking about why they need to control AI because it's going to be the front facing filter by which you get your information about everything, the law, cops, health care, government, tax policy. And if you can filter information, that is prevent people from seeing the truth, you Own the world. This is a really troubling clip. Watch this. The censorship and political control of AI is like a thousand times more dangerous than censorship and political control of social media, maybe a million times more dangerous. Social media censorship and political control is very dangerous, but at least it's only like people talking to each other and communicating. The thing with AI is I think AI is going to be the control layer for everything in the future, right? So I think AI is going to be the control layer for how the healthcare system works. I think it's going to be the control layer for how the education system works. It's going to be the control layer for how the government works, right? And so in the future when you deal with a healthcare system or with the education system or with the government, you're going to be dealing with an AI. And so if that AI is, you know, call it what you want, woke, biased, censored, you know, politically controlled, like you are in like a hyper Orwellian, you know, China style social credit system nightmare, right? Absolute nightmare. And this goes directly to Elon's argument which is at the core of this. What you have to do is you have to train the AI to lie. I ended it there for a reason. That's what you needed to hear. That's the takeaway. I hope you tattoo that on your brain. They need to train the AI to lie and no private company is going to do that without government protection. You know why? Feed it to me in the chat. Come on, let's hear it. Because you'll be sued if you are an AI company and you put out some information on your AI that you've knowingly trained to lie. I'll give you a quick example, an easy one. Some medical procedure. Oh, you don't need to see a doctor about this specific condition because it's politically incorrect to do. So stay on and then that person dies because you've trained it to lie because of some politically incorrect narrative, then you could be sued. However, just like certain pharma industries get government protections for taking risks on things, this is exactly what they want to do with AI. They want to make sure it's under a government umbrella so that they're protected against the lying and the lawsuits later. Do you get where I'm going with this? There's got to be a filter, an algorithm like Filter that filters out you from accessing the truth about everything from what the rich pay in taxes to what school choice actually does in the states. Because if you start looking it up and you're an impressionable voter, you'll never vote Democrat again. They can't have that. That's the problem. They need to train it to lie. And it's not easy to do without government interference, without worrying about massive liability problems and everything else. Here's another reason. If you're just a really simple market reason, say there's no government involvement at all. AI is going to tell you the truth. If one AI tells you the truth and another one's run by a bunch of liberals at some company called Scroogle or whatever, no one's going to use the AI that lies because people generally want accurate information. They're going to go to the AI from whatever conservative AI, dot whatever, and they're going to say, hey man, I thought these were both intelligent. How come this one's given a different answer? And people are going to realize they're being lied to. Either way it blow. Do you get where I'm going with this? Either way it blows up the left wing media symbiote that's engaged in propaganda forever. Places like Wikipedia will no longer credibly exist with a functioning AI and it breaks down one of the biggest propaganda operations on the left. I man, I've been warning you about this forever. Our batting average is 1000. Control of AI is everything in the future. Everything. You will never win an election again without it. All right, I want to move on to an important story because I got to tell you, I'm torn on this one. That's why I left it for last. And you know, listen, I need your help. Your opinions matter to me. I don't claim to have all the answers on everything and sometimes my opinions, you know, may be wrong. So there's a couple of scandals going on in the Secret Service. One of them is a pretty big deal. I'll play it next. It's from the Jesse Waters Show. They put it out last night. Jesse's been doing a great job about a lot of these Secret Service issues. I know he's very concerned about it. I've known Jesse a long time. He wants to make sure President Trump and all the protectees stay alive. But this broke the other day as well. Susan Crabtree is an excellent reporter. You should follow her next. She's at Susan Crabtree, common spelling. He. She has a little scooplet here from the Secret Service. This is an email that went out. I assume it's from a Presidential Protection Division agent because she says so, looks like a supervisor. It's basically a reply all email. And you can see the Email below. She got it, obviously from a source. There's no disputing it's accurate because the agent who sent it out to supervisors since apologized for the tone of it. And I'm not going to read the whole thing, but here's the gist of it. This sounds like it's what we would call a shift leader. So the President's detail. Keep this up if you would, guys. The President's detail has a number of shifts. Day shift, afternoon shift, training shift, midnight shift, and then other stuff they do. I'm not going to get into all the details, but scheduling people to be on duty 24 hours a day because you never forfeit. You don't have to give the President downtime like he always has protection all the time. It's hard. It's a pain in the ass. I did it as the whip in ts and I did the schedule when I was a number one whip on the shift myself. It's a real pain in the ass. So this is why I'm torn on this. I guess what happened is a lot of guys were requesting what they call RDOs. RDOs are short for regular days off. So this manager's pissed and he says as a reminder, with respect to the schedule, there's a lot going on. So requesting rdos next week isn't going to cut it. Between all these things, including temps, trips and all this stuff, he says, unless it's a legit emergency, don't even request anything for the next week out. It's not just for this week. I mean, going forward. And he goes into this big long thing and he talks about how the ADL's work way too hard. Who are the ADL's? I'll translate for you. That's assistant detail leaders, okay? Those are the guys, the ADL's and the Whips who do the schedule. So he's basically saying, you're messing up this ADL's life by having to change the schedule all the time. And then he has to throw some dumbass comment in, like, so wanting to have next Tuesday off so you can get your dog groomed, like, you don't need to write that in there. And he's basically saying, don't, don't even bother requesting this stuff. This caused a whole big shit show controversy in the Secret Service. Now I'm kind of torn on this. And again, I don't pretend to know it all. Unpopular opinions. Their opinions too. But I owe you the truth because the show is always going to be authentic. When I was on the detail and we didn't have any of these security problems. Airspace was secure. We didn't. Nothing happened at Protectees on my watch or any time I was over on the detail at all. Okay. We had a pretty good group of guys who knew what they were doing. Weren't perfect, but, you know, we had a pretty good group of guys. I'm going to be honest with you. You don't need to write emails like this. I get that the tone is definitely, no, you don't. Just don't talk to people like that. However, the gist of the email is pretty much accurate. If you're going to go in the Secret Service and you want to do the protection detail in the Secret Service, then folks, there's really. If you take a day off, if you're requesting a day off, the shift has. I'm just going to throw a number. It's not the real number, I promise you. But let's say the shift around the president has 15 guys on it. There's 15 guys protecting President Biden right now. If someone requests an RDO or an SDO scheduled day off, that's unplanned, someone else who had a day off has to come in. And there's no, you don't work short ever on the detail. So I get it. The tone is kind of like, eh, I'm just saying, like someone gets effed over bad. Someone who had a day off to go to his kid's birthday party now has to cancel to fill in for the other guy. So I get why some of the agents were off. You shouldn't talk to the guys like this. They're busting their asses. And I love you guys, but when I was there, this is the way it pretty much went down. I mean, if you, you know, you got a day off and you get called in, it pretty much sucks. I want to play this too. This happened on Jesse Waters show last night. This is some relatively new information. Apparently there was an engagement with the, Remember the golf course incident with Donald Trump? They had the potential assassin right there waiting in the woods. And then there's an engagement with the Secret Service. This is some new stuff. Check this out. And some commentary on the other side. Two new revelations from the Trump Assassination Task force. According to their report, the Secret Service agent who spotted Ryan Ruth in the bushes outside Trump's golf course was only five feet away when he opened fire and missed him not once, not twice. Six times. He missed him six times from five feet. How does a trained agent who passed the firearms test Miss a target away, five feet away. That's not all. The report says the Secret Service found out at 2:30 in the morning that Trump would be golfing later that day. But they didn't secure the course, allowing Ruth to camp out for 12 hours before anyone saw him. Meanwhile, Ruth appeared in federal court this morning and his legal team signaling they're going to go with the insanity defense. How convenient. Ruth's public defender said he has had multiple meetings with a mental health expert while in jail. And the witnesses who saw him before the arrest say he was hallucinating and delusional. Of course, prosecutors also revealed that Ruth has been doing a lot more writing behind bars than initially reported. Ruth has written nearly 40 letters to news outlets in an attempt to persuade them that he's an honorable guy, but they were intercepted before they reached their targets. We also know that only 17 of the 18 cell phones found in Ruth's possession belong to him. Why does he have 18 cell phones and wait, he has 17? So who owns the last phone and why did Ruth have it? Okay, there's a number of takeaways there. I want to focus on a couple. Obviously, we've got to get the marksmanship issue down, folks. The Secret Service credo motto about firearms when I was there, and I'm pretty sure still today, is you are responsible for every round. The core of that being if you're going to unleash around anywhere near the President, then you damn well better hit something and it better not be one of the good guys. It's easy for me to Monday morning quarterback anything. I'm just saying this is what we do. And if we've got to up the firearms recalls to weekly instead of monthly, if it's got to be more tactical rather than paper shooting, fine. But we need a director in there. So I keep talking about this, who understands this stuff and we need a premium on shooting because I'm telling you, when I was there, a lot of guys skipped their training requirements and it happened a lot. So that may have something to do with this. May not. But second, folks, how the hell was there no pre operation surveillance done to detect this guy, that he was sitting there all this time? I cannot believe that they went to a golf course they knew he was going to hours in advance and nobody went out there and did any. Pre op surveillance is such an act of misfeasance, borderline malfeasance that people should have been fired over it. It's disgraceful. We need a director in there to clean this thing up, man. This is way past the point of, like, oh, my bad. Someone's gonna die if we don't get this done soon. They need to get going on this quick because the people in charge now are folks. They're calcified and they're thinking they're never gonna change anything because they can't. They need fresh blood in there. It is a train wreck over there.
