NMLSconsumeraccess.org. Ladies and gentlemen, there's a photo. ALX, can you find the photo? Really quickly here, because James Comer is going to join the show. He has a meeting, a very important meeting. We think it's with Doge. We're going to ask him. He's going to join the show.

So I want to get to something really quickly. ALX, can you find the photo of Lindsey Graham during the Kavanaugh nomination that I took way back, a long time ago? It used to that I took way back a long time ago. Used to be our banner photo for a long time. This is a photo of Lindsey Graham. And Lindsey Graham, shockingly, was one of the few, this is amazing, individuals who stuck it out during the Kavanaugh nomination and said, no, Brett Kavanaugh is a good man. And I don't believe in any of these, the literal, sorry, bullshit allegations against Brett Kavanaugh. There's no other term for him. It was literal excrement. It was legitimately fake. All of it

was fake. There was nothing true about any of it they found someone here we go this is the photo i took this photo this is a pretty famous photo i took this photo let's consider like one of the most perfect political photos ever taken you see the golden ratio the longer you look at it the more the more the layers are you see the screaming protesters you remember the first insurrection when all these libs stormed the united states capitol to stop uh the kavanaugh nomination because they came up with some they come they came up with the most obscene stories none of them ever proven true the devil devil's triangle. Boofing. I had to get a second door because I was so scared of Kavanaugh. Some of those, it's hard to even repeat this stuff.

The reason why we love Mike Davis, because Mike Davis is one of the guys, the reason why we love Mike Davis, because Mike Davis is one of the guys who actually stood his ground and said, No, we will not let the corporate press and unfounded, anonymous and or illegal, because what they did to Kavanaugh is illegal. There should be civil penalty. Kavanaugh could go and sue these women and win civil penalties to the tune of billions of dollars. He's too good of a man. Brett Kavanaugh's a father, a husband,

and a good and decent judge. And thank God we have him on the Supreme Court because we've had major wins in the Supreme Court and we needed Kavanaugh, quite frankly. Ladies and gentlemen, this is a playbook. And it's a playbook they're using on Pete Hegseth right now. It makes me, it's despicable. I washed it up close.

The only reason I wanted to show you this photo is not to obviously hype up Lindsey Graham. According to many reports, Lindsey Graham may be one of the senators who's trying to sink USS Pete Hegseth right now. And we love Pete Hegseth. We're friends with Pete Hegseth. We are strong allies and want his nomination. Pete Hegseth is exactly the kind of warfighter that you need to be in charge of the Pentagon. I show you this because I've seen this tactic up close.

I only show you this to show you that I sat there in the Senate hearing rooms with the Kavanaugh hearings. I sat there and I watched. I cataloged all of it. I was one of the few reporters that was actually telling a true story on Capitol Hill. I was there. I witnessed it firsthand. I was able to see the machine at work, the destruction of a good man for power. And because they can control narratives and because they can control media and because they've hired propagandists, suicide bomber propagandists, which are these journalists who are publishing anonymous reports right now on Pete Hexeth. I'm not going to repeat it. Just like the stuff that you can't even repeat the stuff they accused Kavanaugh. Stuff they accused Kavanaugh is like downright satanic. It's like a Catholic choir boy.

I mean, they were cuing Kavanaugh on the most despicable, grotesque things. It was beyond the stretch of the imagination. Remember Christine Blasey Ford? That's like saying that she had to build a different door on her house because I was so scared. I'm in a glass cage of emotion.

And then she straight up admits that that's not true. None of it was true. All of it was fake. They're doing it to Pete Hegseth right now. So I'm not going to repeat what they've said against Pete Hegseth. There's anonymous allegations that are the Kavanaugh playbook. Let's just call it what that is. Oh, he's a monster. Oh, he's such an evil person. Why are they doing this? Why don't you ever hear these kinds of things about the guys on Epstein Island? How much, how about this? I'll do a whole

report on Pete Hegseth when you release the Epstein tapes and you release what Bill Clinton did on little St. James when he flew 27 times to little St. James. Pedo Island. How about you do that? How about you guys cough up everything you know about Joe Biden and Hunter Biden? And what's on the laptop? Why don't we have an honest and open discussion about that? And then we can talk about if Pete Hicks is a bad guy or not. Meanwhile, this is the same edifice in the same party that is openly protecting the world's largest pederasts. You sick villains.

They are villains, ladies and gentlemen. So, no, I'm not going to clutch my pearls over Pete Hegseth. No, I'm not going to even, no, I'm not going to follow, be led by the nose in allegations from anonymous sort, from anonymous people, anonymous allegations. You shouldn't be able to write stories like that. You didn't used to be able to, that didn't used to be allowed in media to write these anonymous career ending allegations, but it's the wrap-up smear. Nancy Pelosi has called it what it is, the wrap-up smear. You make up a lie about somebody, you merchandise it to the press, and then you say, wow, look at that report. And they're doing that

right now to the Republican senators, the squishy, weak Republican senators to try and stop our boy Pete Hegseth. I want to just get to two things really quickly here, okay, before we jump over to the great James Comer, okay, before we jump over to the great James Comer, who's on our program and making time for us and I'm deeply appreciative for it. This is Pete's commentary on it, okay? We need to get to this because right now they're coming, they're coming for Pete Hegseth. I'm doing this for the war fighters, not the warmongers. The left is afraid of disruptors and change agents. They are afraid of real Donald Trump and me. So they smear me with fake anonymous sources and BS stories. They don't want the truth. Our warriors never back down. One of those stories that Pete Hegseth

was a monster on his Fox News show. He's a monster. We have anonymous sources. Well, here are his buddies defending him. Multiple friends of his. Please get the Campos Duffy tweet as well, ALX, really quickly. Will Kane, he's a co-host. 10 anonymous sources. Here's your on-the-record statement from people who worked with Pete Hegseth. I know there are many more of you. Oh, okay, I see it. It's here. It's here inside of the tweet. So he's just Dan Bogino defending him. Here's Johnny Jones, Joey Jones defending him. Nicole Sapphire defending him. Will Kane, 100% BS, actual BS, actual horse shit

is what he says. That these are all fake. And then you have Rachel Campos Duffy as well out defending him saying, the losers at NBC News never reached out to any of the Fox hosts. Any of the people that we would know, they never reached out to them. The story is complete garbage.

I'm sorry, I've dropped like too many S-bombs already on the show. You have two people that sat next to him for eight hours a week on record, and you will retract or correct your story? They should. And there should be legal penalties for things like this. We have it on firm authority because we have people who we know that worked with Pete Hegseth that spoke to NBC News for this garbage article, and they didn't use their interview at all because they spoke highly of Pete Hegseth. So we are telling you, ladies and gentlemen,

the war is on. Do you think the deep state was going to just hand us over the keys? You think they were just going to do this without any of this funny business, any of this criminality that's happening right now? And there's one man who's been uncovering this criminality better than anyone. One man who actually deeply understands these systems of personal destruction in the media. He's experienced them for the better part of the last three years as he geared up to be the only person to investigate Joe Biden and Hunter Biden. And I'll be damned if this man isn't the most correct man in all of America. Pulling knives and flaming arrows out of his back every single day is what Jamie Comer did. Chairman Comer led an investigation into the criminality

of the Bidens and everything, the single slander was used against him. But guess what? Damn it. Just 48 hours ago, Chairman Comer was proven right. Everything that he told us on this program was validated. It's our honor to welcome to the program live now. Mr. Chairman, you must have, I would, listen, we're not drinking buddies just yet. I know you are from a fine drink, a fine, fine bourbon state. Yes. But if I, if I could have prayed to be with one person other than my own family on Sunday night, it would have been you with a bottle of bourbon watching this Hunter Biden pardon. I would have loved to have seen your reaction, Mr. Chairman. And so, because it was effectively Joe Biden

staring down the barrel saying, you were right. Saying, you know what? Every single thing that you have brought up about me and my family, not only are you so right, you were so right that we need blanket pardon coverage for 11 years of our lives to stay out of prison for life. So I guess congratulations. And two, what was your reaction? Well, my reaction was that obviously I knew he was going to pardon Hunter.

The reason he's pardoning Hunter so early is because Hunter was fixing to be sentenced to prison next week. And Joe Biden had an opportunity to do it on a Sunday night right before he got on a plane to Africa. So it was the it was the perfect time for Joe to do it. He's not finished pardoning, by the way. He will he will have to pardon at least his brother on the way out. So maybe we can get together and have a buffalo trace or a beggar's mark, whatever your preference is before that announcement. But at the end of the day, you know everything in the investigation was accurate because he didn't just pardon him for what he was convicted of. He pardoned him for anything that he could be convicted of from the exact dates where we requested bank records from 2014 to today.

So that's evidence that Joe Biden read the oversight committee report. He knew that a Trump Department of Justice could charge Hunter Biden for money laundering, violation of Foreign Agents Registration Act, and tax evasion for significantly more amounts of money than what he was charged for tax evasion on. Remember, Benny, he was charged for tax evasion on the money he got from Burisma. As corrupt as Burisma was, it was a real company and he did get a W-2 on it. All the other money besides Burisma, the Chinese money, the Romanian money, the Russian money, he never paid any taxes on it. He took that and laundered it through all these LLCs that he would use as expenses, his everyday living expenses, like his prostitutes. He counted that as employees.

And business travel was was was you know traveled uh to sex club sex club we wrote off as a country club membership according to the irish so you know everything that he took in from the influence peddling besides barisma he never paid a penny of taxes on it and that was over 20 million dollars right there so and that sex club i just want to state for the record i want to be 100 accurate he was kicked out of the sex club for being such a degenerate he's like a like a demonic sex club in l.a and hunter biden was too bad for them so they they pushed him out the door the the guy who runs the thing does interviews about it he was kicked out of there and he was kicked out of the Beverly Hills Hotel too.

Yes. You get kicked out of a hotel where you're willing to pay thousands of dollars a night, you're a pretty bad person because I've never heard of anyone kicked out and banned from going to a nice hotel before. Mr. Chairman, even David Weiss is saying, hold up, what are you doing here? And this is boggling to even the Justice Department itself, it seems. And we're getting, there's getting, Biden's getting some pushback. And everyone is relatively astonished, including a lot of Biden defenders in Congress who have come out against this saying an 11-year pardon.

Like we've never seen anything like that. It's twice as big as the pardon Nixon got for Watergate. So presumably, they're twice as bad as Watergate, the biggest scandal in American history. Do you agree? I do agree. I've said this is the biggest public corruption story in my lifetime, and I'm 52 years old.

Look, David, we should be upset with the Bidens. Joe Biden threw him under the bus after Weiss gave him a sweetheart deal. Weiss knew he could have charged him for significantly more financial crimes than what he was charged for. He did the bare minimum for Joe Biden. And this is how Joe Biden repays me. So, you know, I have no sympathy for Weiss. He was a terrible prosecutor. He was part of the deep state. He could have prosec they tried to say about Matt Gaetz, Hunter Biden did with three or four zeros at the end of it. So, I mean, you know, the systems on and on and on of potential crimes, they could have charged Hunter Biden, but they gave him a sweetheart deal. And this is how Joe Biden thanked him, saying, oh, it's a two-tier system of justice. Give me a break. Yeah. Hunter did it with three zeros and a GoPro strapped to his head, filming literally everything.

Yeah, if Hunter Biden was properly charged, he'd spend the rest of his life in prison. Absolutely. If his last name weren't Biden, he'd already be in prison. Okay, so what happens moving forward? You expect a pardon for his brother. This is now confirmation. I suppose that, I mean, if you, if you go back and you, if you go back and you reverse engineer this, it started with Joe Biden saying he didn't know anything and he never talked with Hunter about

his business to Joe Biden, never received any money from Hunter's business to Joe Biden. Didn't know how much money he received from Hunter's business to all the businesses completely and totally above board. Don't worry. I knew about everything, but it was all like really legal. And then just love of the son. Now I need to pardon him for all of his crimes. Yeah, it is. It's a total reversal. Thanks to your committee, because you exposed all these things and all expose all these lies every step of the way. But how do you you know, how do you and I've read your reports, how do you pardon that? He's going to have to pardon his entire family, right?

Because his entire family touched this money. Is this correct? They all touched the money. Ten, including Joe Biden himself, touched the money. The two central figures, obviously, were, in addition to Joe Biden, were Hunter Biden and Jim Biden. Remember, we issued criminal referrals, we, the oversight committee, issued criminal referrals to the Department of Justice for Hunter Biden for perjury and for Jim Biden for lying to Congress because we brought Biden in for a transcribed

interview. We brought Jim Biden in for the the transcript interview. We brought Hunter Biden in for a deposition. They lied under oath. That's a felony. And so the new Trump Department of Justice has an opportunity to hold them accountable. So Joe Biden pardoned Hunter for that, in addition to all of the financial crimes he'd been charged for, in addition to the little measly gun charge,

which I never talk about because that's just a joke in itself. The only thing funny about the gun charge is Joe Biden wanted to expand more gun laws, and then his son gets caught violating a law that he supported, and then he pardons him when the prison's full of minorities

that have lied on a gun application. Right. Or done crack. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All of that. But so with respect to Jim Biden and Hunter Biden have got charges, official charges,

which is about all we can do. People say, why didn't you go in and arrest Joe Biden? Well, I don't have handcuffs. Jason Chaffetz and I talk about this all the time. All we can do in a congressional committee is investigate and issue a report. I can't go in and arrest people or take them to prison like a couple of people, I'm not going to mention any names, that tweet in conservative world's face. But we've given the Trump Justice Department and Ms. Bondy an opportunity to hold them accountable. But Joe Biden's pardons will probably be the saving grace for Jim and Hunter Biden.

What I want to see happen is I want to see all the deep state bureaucrats that were involved in the cover-up for years and years and years. I want every one of them to be held accountable and the Department of Justice can do that. And Joe Biden will not pardon those people. So there will be an opportunity to hold people accountable. And as they come forward, if the Department of Justice drags them in court, they're going to start talking. And I think some even new things could arise about the Bides. But that's left up to Pam. When does fast grocery delivery through Instacart matter most?

When your famous grainy mustard potato salad isn't so famous without the grainy mustard. When the barbecue's lit, but there's nothing to grill. When the in-laws decide that, actually, they will stay for dinner. Instacart has all your groceries covered this summer. So download the app and get delivery in as fast as 60 minutes. Plus, enjoy $0 delivery fees on your first three orders. Service fees, exclusions, and terms apply. Instacart. Groceries that over-deliver.

And certainly myself and I know Jim Jordan are available to help in any way we can. So that's very interesting. There's been a lot of chatter about, well, now he doesn't have his Fifth Amendment rights. And so now he has to answer. And if he doesn't answer,

then you send him to prison like Peter Navarro or Steve Bannon. I mean, you're not pardoned for that. Right. Yeah. And, you know, look, you're not pardoned for that. Right. Yeah. And, you know, look, he came in in his deposition. People thought he would take the fifth. Hunter Biden, he never took the fifth one time.

He just lied. And that's what the Bidens do. They lie, like Joe Biden. When he lied and he said that the laptop was Russian disinformation, he knew the FBI had the laptop for over a year, and he knew it was legitimate. He lied when he said he wasn't going to pardon his son. NBC of all network reported that he made the decision then he was going to pardon his son. He just lied and then made the decision he was

going to lie about it. But the last thing, Vinnie, when we started the investigation two years ago, roughly, the laptop was still rushing thisinformation. That's how far we've come in two years with this investigation. Proving the laptop was legitimate, proving the intelligence community knew, the intelligence community knew that it was real, even when they signed that letter, to proving that all the financial crimes have been committed by the fact that Joe Biden pardoned him for anything over that 11 year time period. So in closing, Mr. Chairman, you are not

going to be deterred by this pardon. You are going to continue your investigations. You're going to now look at the people who are around the Bidens covering it up and potentially other Biden family members or sources of income. I think that it's very important to expose this regardless of who may go to prison or who currently has a pardon. I think it's more important than ever, actually, because they just admitted the Biden crime family is real. That's right. And he's not through admitting it because he will pardon at least one more Biden family member. There's no question about that. So you're going to continue your investigation? We're going to continue, but we're going to consult with Bondi to make sure Trump

wants to do this. Look, everything we got from the, we got from the private sector, we got the bank records from private banks. We brought the, the people like Devin Archer and Tony Bobulinski in with, with subpoenas. When, when I subpoenaed information from the private sector, from private individuals, I got it. And that was where we found all that we reported. What we didn't get was information from the federal government. The National Archives is still sitting on those pseudonym emails. Okay. There's testimony from government employees that we can't get because they won't let them talk. The White House wouldn't let us talk to anybody. So the Trump administration has an opportunity to turn that information over.

I don't want to keep fighting the federal government and the deep state if the deep state's not going to cooperate. It's just a brick wall. But now, thankfully, Trump got elected. He's going to put a new FBI director in, Kash Patel. He's going to put a new FBI director in, Cash Patel. He's going to put a new attorney general in, Pam Bonney. Hopefully, they will want to continue this investigation. And I can tell you right now, myself as chairman of the Oversight Committee, and I'm pretty confident Jim Jordan, chairman of the Judiciary Committee, we're available to help. If they want us to

keep moving forward, we will. If they just want us to advise them as they move forward, we will. Whatever we want to do. I want to see justice served. If the Bidens are going to do like they always do and get out of it, then let's hold some deep state actors accountable for their role in these crimes. Yes, exactly. The FBI stonewalling you every step of the way, refused cooperation, then one day walks in with Hunter Biden's laptop, using it as evidence against him. It is sick. These people are sick. You're in favor of Kash Patel at FBI? Absolutely. All right. Fantastic. Wonderful to hear. And you know what? A Christmas gift for all of us

next year. If you're feeling extra generous, the Diddy list and the Epstein list, that'd be great. I love it. If you could just ask for some of those. I want to see those lists. I'm curious. I want to see those lists. So, yeah.

All right. Our boy Cash, Cash only. Follow the great chairman. He is obviously one of the true truth seekers. And one of the only reasons why Hunter needed a part in this big was because of this investigation, the great James Comer.

Godspeed, Mr. Chairman. Thank you, Vinny. All right, ladies and gentlemen, back at it, back at it. Okay, we'll keep asking. We'll keep asking. You think we're gonna, you think they're gonna get away with it?

You think we're gonna let them get away with it? How, I told you, because we read the chat, we love the chat, big heart. This is the current heart to the chat. Always the Diddy and Epstein list, isn't it? And so I'll keep asking. I am your voice. We are in a movement together.

This is our show together. I'll ask. I'll keep asking, right? You know, it's amazing. It's amazing. Cash gets nominated and the clip that goes thermonuclear is us asking him about the Didion Epstein list because no one else would ask. Why is the federal government protecting international pedo rings? Why are they doing it? It seems like the one thing we can all agree with is that these guys shouldn't be protected. In fact, they should be prosecuted and spend their lives in prison. Now, the only person that's ever done any prison time, well, ladies and gentlemen, should have been the star witness, Jelaine Maxwell.

She's the only person that ever got put into the white-collar prison. Actually, not too far away. It's here in Florida. Yeah. Maybe that's going to be our next interview, right? Yeah. Okay. We'll work on it. There is a dude named Ron DeSantis who has released, I think, all, but definitely a lot of the Jeffrey

Epstein information. He's at least signed a law called the Sunlight Law that releases all the Epstein information, all the filings from Epstein's single criminal conviction, which is here in Florida for sex trafficking, right? That was in 2009. So I'm a fan of that. And you know, I moved my family to Florida because I like Ron DeSantis' leadership. I am a hundred, I was a hundred percent behind Donald Trump, President Trump in this primary process, but I like the way that Ron DeSantis has run this state. Kind of inarguable to say that it's one of, if not the best run red states in the country. So what's going on here? We have an obligation to tell you the breaking news. The breaking news here, according to the Wall Street Journal, is that Donald Trump

spoke yesterday with Ron DeSantis about being the Secretary of Defense. I'm Team Pete. I like Pete Hegseth. Pete Hegseth's our boy. Okay, come get your boy. Donald Trump considers replacing Pete Hegseth with Ron DeSantis as Defense Secretary pick. This is the breaking news, ladies and gentlemen. We have made some phone calls this morning and confirmed that at least a conversation, a private conversation was held with Ron DeSantis and President Trump yesterday at a Florida law enforcement ceremony that took place in Palm Beach. President-elect Ron DeSantis is considering replacing Pete Hegseth with controversial, his controversial pick to lead Pentagon. Controversial by who? Pete Hegseth is a warrior and a fighter and a great American. With one-time 2024 rival

Ron DeSantis, people familiar with the discussion said. The move comes as Hegseth, a 44-year-old Army veteran, former Fox News personality, faces increasing scrutiny over allegations of sexual misconduct and financial mismanagement. Wow. They've Kavanaugh. The thing that makes me so angry is that if they keep doing the Kavanaugh trick and the Kavanaugh trick keeps working, they'll keep doing it to your kids, to my kids, to everyone. That's the thing that makes me so angry about this. As many as six Senate Republicans have expressed reservations about confirming Hegseth for the top Pentagon role, according to NBC News. DeSantis, a former member of the Navy, judge, advocate, general corps, was on the short list of potential defense secretaries,

presented to Trump and transition officials before he went with Hegseth, according to the Wall Street Journal. The list has recently been dusted off and presented to Trump again as allegations of Hegseth, which some senators have described as disturbing, continue to surface. Sources told the Wall Street Journal that Trump could settle on a different replacement for Hegseth if the nomination fails. As far as I know, hey, Alex, am I wrong here? No senator has come out and said they will vote against Pete

Hegseth. This is different from Matt Gaetz. We also freaking love Matt Gaetz. It is what it is. We really like Pam Bondi. Pam Bondi has, Pam Bondi's literally, like, legitimately like our neighbor by country standards down here. We freaking love Pam Bondi, okay? And there's no love lost with Matt Gaetz. Matt Gaetz had multiple senators coming out against him. That's hard to move. But there are no senators who have come out publicly against Hegseth. There are just six or seven who are saying that they are wishy-washy.

Sources who spoke to the journal said that Donald Trump may well have presented DeSantis with the opportunity to be defense secretary. Ron DeSantis' term limited in Florida. He can only run for zero more terms, actually. Ron DeSantis won his reelection in the landslide. Ron DeSantis is responsible for flipping Florida so red. And as you know, we are a fan of Ron DeSantis' governorship of the state. However, we hate these tactics used against Pete Hegseth. The president-elect and Florida governor were together on Tuesday at a memorial service, and according to reports, they met to speak about the Secretary of Defense nomination.

During his presidential primary campaign, DeSantis proposed eliminating Pentagon diversity initiatives and slashing military programs on climate change. Our mantra on January 20th, 2025, as Commander-in-Chief, will be very simple. Mission first, accomplish the mission, DeSantis said on the campaign trail, blaming wokeism in the military. We also got to ensure that there's good order

and discipline of military installations. Having things like drag shows on military bases should not be allowed. Ron DeSantis, of course, cares about these things because Ron DeSantis is a JAG officer and served in the military at high levels. DeSantis also indicated that as president, he would revoke Biden-Harris administration policy to allow transgender service military members in the military, serve in the military under their preferred sex, reinstate those who were kicked out of COVID-19. Hegseth had been on Capitol Hill this week trying to drum up support for the nomination, a meeting with several GOP senators. One of them is Mark Wayne Mullen, I know, who came out strongly advocating for Hegseth. Days after being tapped to serve as defense secretary, reports surfaced.

Again, Kavanaugh-style reports surfaced, and Hegseth and his lawyers have all claimed these allegations are completely false, along with a ton of his Fox and Friends co-hosts, who we deeply respect, know, and appreciate. So, ladies and gentlemen, this is the state of play. I'll tell you, I hate the tactics. I like Pete Hegseth a lot. I like Ron DeSantis a lot. Ron DeSantis, I wouldn't have moved my most precious commodity, my most precious assets, my family,

wouldn't have moved them to Florida if I didn't appreciate Ron DeSantis' stewardship of the state. But that is irrelevant to the actual tactics being deployed here. I'm going to say good man, and against patriot Pete Hegseth, ladies and gentlemen. So here is the breaking report on this. This is certainly what has set the internet ablaze today. DeSantis swapped for Hegseth. Here we go. For you just a few moments ago, I got off the phone with a source familiar who's confirming a Wall Street Journal report that came out last night that says that President-elect Trump is considering Ron DeSantis for sec def, potentially replacing Pete Hegseth. That source tells me that reporting from Wall Street Journal is accurate, that Trump and DeSantis met face to face yesterday here in Palm Beach

at an event for fallen law enforcement and talked about this and that Trump is, quote, seriously considering Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in that role for secretary of defense. Now, let's pull up a little bit of what The Wall Street Journal was reporting. This report came out last night. Part of that article said, quote, Trump allies increasingly think Hegseth may not survive further scrutiny, according to people close to the president-elect's team, which considers the next 48 hours to be crucial to his fate oh ladies and gentlemen pete hegseth is currently in an interview with megan kelly pete hegseth is

now punching back at this um and so we we look forward to that dropping we're allied with pete we like pete hegseth what is happening to him is the Kavanaugh playbook. And we do not want it to be victorious. We don't want it to win. That's the right way to say this. Like as James Comer just said, I'm paraphrasing James Comer on the program. Like Hunter Biden and Joe Biden are guilty of so much more than anything Matt Gaetz had ever been accused of. But this is the tactic. If they can create enough inertia on the fake stories, if they can merchandise the wrap-up smear, can we get the wrap-up smear clip? Let's just get it. Let's just get it. I mean, Nancy Pelosi, again, in a rattling cocktail moment of senility,

explained exactly what they're doing. She explained the tactic. They used it against Gates. They were successful in getting Gates to drop out for AG. I freaking love Pam Bondi. So it's hard for me to feel terrible about it. But the more that it is successful, the more they will use it.

They are in control of very loud microphones. They're dying microphones, but they're loud enough. And the playbook is very simple. Create fake allegations. You can always do that. You can make up sources. You can make up your anonymous sources. You can pay people to say things

when they've never even met Pete Hegseth. You can have people that have vendettas that lie. You run those anonymous fake stories and then you merchandise it and you destroy the person. Here what you're doing is you're trying to ply off three senators that they need. They need three senators to vote against the nomination for Republicans, and then all Democrats to vote against it, and then the nomination fails in the Senate. Once the nomination fails in the Senate, you're in a tough ship. You got a tough road out of that. It's really hard to get back that nomination. I wonder if it's ever even happened. That being said,

what typically happens is the advise and consent rule of the Senate, the Senate should give a president, especially a president with a massive mandate and who won both chambers, deep deference on his decisions. So the Senate shouldn't be used as some type of like weaponizing cabal that sabotages people because the super state in D.C. is scared. And that is exactly what is happening with fake allegations and slanders and smears. Pete Hegseth fighting this. Pete Hegseth inside of the Capitol this morning saying he just spoke with President Trump. Here we go. Have you had any conversations with the president-elect about who is placing you with Governor DeSantis? I spoke to the president this morning.

He said, keep going, keep fighting. Behind you all the way. Here and this all the way. Why would I back down? I'm always going to fight her. I'm here for the war fighters. This person is passionate for me. Do not withdraw your name from consideration, just to be clear.

I'm meeting all day with senators. I know your mom was just on Fox. She says that you are a change. So he's meeting all days with senators. This scum. These people, they're scum. I don't know how they got him, but they got some email from Pete Hegseth's mother. Dude, they're such rats, these people.

Who's scraping emails with someone's, a nominee's mom? This is how desperate they are. And on some level, it's wonderful to see the level of desperation because it's encouraging. If they're this desperate to scroll through your private communications with your own mother, how the hell do they get this? That's a question for another time. Pete Hexeth's mother on Fox News defending her son this morning. Let's go. One is to President Trump. And I want to say thank you for your belief in my son. We all believe in him. We really believe that he is not that man he was seven years ago.

I'm not that mother. And I hope people will hear that story today and the truth of that story. So the other thing I want to say is I am here to tell the truth, to tell the truth to the American people and tell the truth to the senators on the Hill, especially our female senators. I really hope that you will not listen to the media and that you will listen to Pete. Well, and you're here to tell us because you are in the news now. So why did you write that email?

Well, let's go on. Right. Let's go back seven years, which if we all went back seven years, we would we would see that maybe we were not the people we are today. But they were going through Pete and his wife at the time were going through a very difficult divorce. It was a very emotional time. And I'm sure many of you across the country understand how difficult divorce is on a family.

There's emotions. We say things, and I wrote that in haste. I wrote that with deep emotions. I wrote that as a parent. And about two hours later, my husband tells me I should think through things a little bit more, but Pete and I are both very passionate people. I wrote that out of love and about two hours later, I retracted it with an apology email, but nobody's seen that. So it was, it was a difficult time. I want to say something about the media. And part of today is to discredit the media and how they operate.

When they contact you, I let a few phone calls go, but then they call you and say they threaten you. That's the first thing they do. They say, unless you make a statement, we will publish it as is. And I think that's a despicable way to treat anyone. Threats are dangerous, and they're hard on families. Breaking news, ladies and gentlemen. President Trump just blasted the Wall Street Journal report. Amazing.

Seconds ago. Okay, so let's jump in here. Trump just called out the Wall Street Journal just hours after they published a story claiming that he was looking to replace Pete Hegseth. He confirmed that he forced Florida Sheriff Chad Chronister to withdraw his nomination over the arrest of a pastor. So that's a deep positive there. Let's go ahead and read this. This is up seconds ago, according to our producers. Wall Street Journal is becoming more and more obnoxious and unreadable. Today's headline, Trump DEA pick pulls out

in latest setback. With all that's happening in the world, this is their number one story of the day. Besides, he didn't pull out, I pulled him out because I didn't like what he said to passers and other supporters. This was a guy named Chad Chronister, who's actually the sheriff here. Now, I didn't live here during COVID. I lived here.

I moved to Tampa in 2021, but he was the sheriff here. He was apparently a COVID lockdown sociopath, authoritarian tyrant who just lost his dream job because he was such a sick COVID tyranny, point a gun in your face to keep you from worshiping your God, to keep you in your house. I mean, it's particularly evil down here where it's really hot and when like you must be outside, it's particular, it's, it's, it's gorgeous outside. There's a lot of nice outside space. I mean, it's like the entire place is beaches, right? Yeah. These COVID monsters really deserve what they're getting. And it's so wonderful to see that.

I didn't want to do a whole show on this because I don't actually know the guy. But Chad Chronister is emblematic of maybe the first guy that was punished for what he did during COVID. The first COVID tyrant who's been punished properly. Hopefully we'll get all the way to Dr. Fauci, who deserves to be in prison. My pronouns are Arrest Fauci. But this is a wonderful sign. Chad Chronister lost his position because he was a COVID sociopath, authoritarian psychopath who abused his power and among many other sins, locked up a pastor for doing church services here in Florida. And now he's lost his dream job because of it. Good. You should feel punishment

for that. There should be far more punishment for that. Maybe Chad Croser should lose more because of what he did during COVID, but it's good to like pin a scalp on the wall. More of it, please. Anyway, moving on, reading through, but more importantly, what's my latest setback? I just won the presidency of the United States. They haven't written a good story about me in years. Somebody out there ought to look at what they're doing is only the only one worse for them is Forbes magazine, China center. Okay. So he doesn't actually, okay. So he doesn't actually approach. So he talks about Chronister. Um, he doesn't actually talk about, uh, Hegseth. So he just goes after the wall street journal. So we'll see. We'll see. All my sources tell me is that Trump and DeSantis

met yesterday. That's it. That's it. That was obvious. They were on stage together. Okay. This is obvious. And of course, when the governor of the state that you live in and you're the president elect, of course, you're going to meet with him. So that's all I know. All right. That's all I know. Fly on the wall. We will be at Mar-a-Lago this weekend. We have some fun meetings. We'll tell you more about that in a moment. Ladies and gentlemen, it's pretty sick what is currently going on. They're trying to pull these same and much darker and scarier operations against Kash Patel. At the very least, Pete Hegseth has some great defenders.

All of the media personalities at Fox News are defending him. Guys like Dan Bongino are defending him. Scott Jennings over in CNN, of all places, defending him in an excellent clip here. I don't want to be bringing back waterboarding. I don't want to be a country that tortures people, especially for the kind of country that's going to be using the military against our own citizens. This kind of thing concerns me. What do you mean use against our own citizens? I'm talking about sending...

You said blue states behave. What do you mean? What are you talking about? I'm talking about sending the military into blue states to make them behave. Getting Gavin Newsom under control, getting J.P. Pritchard under control. What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Sitting in the state capitol to commandeer the state government? I mean, I hope not, but he's definitely talked about that. I don't know why you're acting like you've never heard this before.

He's talked about using the military to suppress, in the black lives matter era those protests in the street he he was there himself i just make sure i understand your position that you believe donald trump is going to use the military to set up effectively like coups in state capitals of states that he didn't win i think you're taking it a step or two she said make blue states behave and she also said round up immigrants. That's not true. It's deport illegal immigrants. Scott, I don't know why you're acting. Okay, well, I'm sorry.

Hold on. I mean, look, I think you're right. Let's be precise. Trump has wanted to use the military to do things domestically that actually the military is not allowed to do. I think that's the point that she's making. Like what? Like deport illegal immigrants. That is actually not a function of the military.

The military can absolutely be used to work with local officials to provide military resources, but working with other parts of the federal government and local officials, we already send the National Guard to the border. But you're not against the will of the local officials or the will of the state government. Oh, yes. We have a federalist government here. The military is not supposed to take up arms against American citizens, period. They're not.

You keep saying that. This is about illegal immigration. You all keep saying American citizens. It's about illegal immigration. How do we know whether the people are illegal or not? You just said he wasn't. We know after they're shot. We have 1.6 million.

We know after they die. We have 1.6 million people in this country who have already received deportation orders from courts. They are here illegally. It's always back to illegal immigration with people who support Donald Trump. It's always back to illegal immigration. But that's not the only thing that we're talking about here. We're talking about the American people. We're talking about taking up arms against them.

What a mess. You see what's happening, though. You can see. I like those kind of, I like watching the hive mind form a nucleus in real time. You can see where they're going with this, right? They can't wait to find that first deportee who's crying at the airport. Now, they never covered any of the illegal flights that

came in in the dark of night to bring in the largest human smuggling operation, hundreds of thousands of children, which they don't know where they went, the largest child smuggling operation, I should say. There were no cameras for that. There were plenty of cameras for moments when AOC was screaming at an empty parking lot. They can't wait for these moments again. They just, they can't wait. They're like salivating. You can tell the difference between here and now is that the vast majority of Americans, according to Gallup, 70% of Americans want mass deportations. Say this isn't how we should run an immigration system in this country. And that's what we're going to get.

I find it particularly fascinating that those CNN pundits are talking about, you can't deploy the military in the United States. Oh, really? Why don't you talk to my wife? When we had the military deployed and living on our block for three months after January 6th, when Democrats decided that now was the time to use the military to do Joe Biden's inauguration. Joe Biden was effectively like, it was like a military junta during his inauguration. There were like three people there

there was an entire encampment i have the videos we don't have time for him right now but i have the videos the military literally just took over my block in order to install joe biden that happened don't tell me that didn't happen so yes under article 2 of the constitution it is the president's job to secure our borders and secure our nation it is something that is a power endowed to our president the sole responsibility to do as commander-in-chief to protect the sovereignty of the nation and he is the commander of the military in order to do that. And so when there is an, this is a perfect example,

this is a perfect example. Military jets were, military jets were scrambled on 9-11 to either force down all aircraft in the skies and to prevent, hopefully, another plane from crashing into a building. That was the American military being deployed technically in America. But what is the purpose of the deployment? To protect American citizens against two

terrorist invaders who came here illegally, who meant us harm. And how many on the terrorist watch list have run across the southern border well thousands according to our own dhs which are probably woefully undercounted the numbers so there's your there's your logic board there like what did you not want on september 11th did you not want the fighter jets to get scrambled you can't deploy the American military against Americans they're not Americans they're terrorists and a lot of them are Benny how could you say it

I didn't say it, DHS said it Secretary Mariorcas said it bring it up with him dirty impeached ass, hopefully in prison soon anyway the point is is that you can see the hive mind already forming. They can't wait. We can't wait. This is why you need men of true backbone, men of true energy and rock ribs.

This is why we need our friend Kash Patel on Capitol Hill. We're going to, we're going to have to, oh, that's a perfect, that's a perfect photo there it is here's your military deployment you can't deploy the military against americans what monument is that what year is it yeah that's right in sweden that's exactly right there's probably there's probably more people in that photo than all the Swedish Armed Forces combined. And probably one of those guys could kick the ass of all the Swedish Armed Forces. I know it because I lived it. And these guys, you don't step to these guys.

That's why I wanted these guys actually deployed on January 6th. That's why that would have been the smartest move. And the man who authorized that deployment is Kash Patel. This is why they can't have him in the FBI. This is why they don't want him in the FBI. This is why they don't want him in the FBI. It's why we must have Kash Patel in the FBI. Kash Patel's phone got hacked. Would you look at that? Well, well, well.

Kash Patel's phone hacked by Iranian hackers. Well, you know how this goes. Ladies and gentlemen, what are the chances that the FBI is the one who hacked Cash Patel's phone in order to comb through and to find anything that would be conceivably embarrassing and then to use, once again, a wrap-up smear operation against Cash Patel? Now, here's the wrap-up smear clip. I just want to get to this really quickly. Not a long clip. But because Nancy Pelosi was particularly sober or drunk this morning, I think sober. She, in a moment of grand senility, explained the wrap-up smear. This is from like a decade ago or more.

So this is like a different era. But she let one slip here. Here we go. Down hospitals and the rest of it. So they don't want them to see that contrast. So they focus on something else. And it's a diversionary tactic. It's a self fulfilling problem.

You demonize and then you it we call it the wrap up smear. If you want to talk politics, cause the wrap up smear, you smear somebody with falsehoods and all the rest. And then you merchandise it. And then you write it, and they'll say, see, it's reported in the press that this, this, this, and this. So they have that validation that the press reported the smear, and then it's called the wrap-up smear. Now I'm going to merchandise the press's report on the smear that we made.

And it's a tactic, and it's self-evident. But I think I'm worth the trouble. So it's a tactic. It's a tactic. It's a tactic we use. We smear people, then we merchandise it to the press to destroy them forever. And this is what they're trying to do to cash.

A post from our executive producer, ALX. This leaked to CNN is an actual felony by the current FBI, who just signed on to vet the Trump team. Leaking has been an ongoing problem for years, and it's exactly why disgraced Deputy Director Andy McKay was fired but escaped accountability. This is why we need cash to clean things up. Wouldn't you know it, the actual news of this was leaked, no doubt, by the FBI. Maybe the hack itself was done by the FBI. We're not sure. Steve Freden will join us in just a moment. One of the foremost FBI whistleblowers,

a man with deep understanding and experience as to how this filthy rat's nest works. Ladies and gentlemen, these are dirty, dirty tricks that are being used right now. Why would they want to leak on Cash Patel? You leak enough information on Cash Patel, you get your squishy Republican senators to go all limp-wristed on Cash. They don't have anything else. They have nothing else. Cash is clean as a whistle. He has been given awards by Barack Obama for his excellent law enforcement service. He's worked at the Department of Justice. He's worked

for the special forces. He's been one of the foremost attorneys. He's been a prosecutor of terrorists for our nation, locked up in jail terrorists. He has an impeccable, impeccable pedigree. He's as good as they come and he also has this badass photo with trump i mean this is like come on man dude this is like the best photo look at this what would you say you do here right this is like the last two things that the last two things that terrorists see before they die via robot dog in whatever hell hole they live in. We call them, don't cry Abu, cry baby Baghdadi, we call them. Beautiful dogs. Ladies and gentlemen, this is why they're so scared of Kash Patel. Because CNN is reporting that Kash Patel is odds on going to be confirmed. Here we

go. Kash Patel has been picked to run the FBI by Donald Trump. If he's confirmed, what do his nomination odds look like this evening? Significantly higher than Pete Hedges to be defense secretary. I mean, here's a key nugget. You know, you mentioned those three senators, right? You could afford to lose three GOP votes at this particular point for Patel to be the FBI head. The key here, number here, zero. That's how many GOP senators have come out against him. So with this particular hour of headsets, nomination is in trouble. Cash Patel to lead the FBI seems to be climbing ever higher. Caitlin Collins. Well, that's interesting. What do you know? I mean, expect expect the ramp up soon.

They're already starting. But what are they going to do? What are you going to do? You can't run the Kavanaugh playbook on cash. What other dirty trick could they possibly have up their sleeve? Ladies and gentlemen, joining us now is a man who knows the FBI in and out. A man who has bravely been one of the foremost whistleblowers against the despicable dirty tricks operations that the FBI runs, and somebody who has made an incredible career off of exposing these ops. Steve Friend, FBI whistleblower and host of

the American Radicals podcast on Rumble, joins us live now. Steve, how you doing, brother? Great to be here. Thank you for the invitation. Bro, this stuff that I'm watching with Kash Patel, did Iran actually hack Kash Patel, or was Iran actually some of the people who used to work with James Comey and Andrew McCabe? Let me let me drop some knowledge on you. So the FBI has their rule book. It's called the Diog Domestic Investigations Operations Guide. And there is a portion in there.

It's called Appendix G. And it basically stipulates that the FBI can open up a full counterintelligence investigation on anyone who they believe could be the target, like the victim of a recruitment scheme from a foreign actor. So that leak indicates that there's actually a full counterintelligence investigation open on Kash Patel at this time. They're doing it for his benefit, of course, but they're going to get full access to national security letters, to his banking records, all of his electronic communications, again, to protect him against that recruiting. And the fact that that information finds its way to the front page of CNN is just, I mean, they just must have great sources, really. I mean, look, Andy McCabe over at CNN now, I'm sure he's just giving guidance back to

his Rolodex of contacts within the FBI. That's right. These people, they're such sick bastards, aren't they? So expect this playbook to be used against Kash Patel. You are saying that they are now scraping through everything that Kash has ever done, even though he received awards for his work inside the Justice Department, 16 years inside the Justice Department, then working for special operations and being one of the lawyers protecting the highest echelons of military service. They're going to go back

through and they're going to try and sabotage Cash because it's a threat to the system. They are also trying to call through his foundation. Look, I was pinged by NBC to provide my comments about the Fight With Cash Foundation, which basically serves to assist military veterans and whistleblowers. And they want to, I don't know, paint some sort of corruption scandal on that. Look, my experience with Cash Patel was, we're talking about a guy who has some investigative skills. Two years ago, during Thanksgiving, actually, I got a phone call from a number I didn't know, but I was getting lots of weird phone calls at the time because my name had just become out. And I answer it, and it's a gentleman who says, hey, this is Kash Patel, and I have the foundation that supports whistleblowers. I would like to give you, because you're unpaid and definitely suspended forever by the FBI, $5,000. My foundation is

going to give you that donation to get your family through Christmas. I don't want any attention on this. Don't tell anybody. This is just something that I do because I believe in. That's the character of the man who is tapped to become the next FBI director. Wow. That's remarkable. I've honestly never heard that story. Cash has been on the program talking about the work of his foundation. That's remarkable, Steve. What an honorable thing to do. So you're saying that this honorable man,

who we distinctly want and advocate for and are campaigning for to get the job of the FBI, that they aren't done launching dirty tricks at Cash? What do you expect next? I mean, what does this mean effectively? Can you explain in layman's terms the counterintel operation that is being run against Cash Patel? What should we expect from this? I think they're going to do something similar to what we saw with Donald Trump, where they

take him literally and not seriously, where the statement that Cash makes sort of a tongue in cheek, I would shut down the FBI headquarters and reopen it as a museum to the deep state. There will be a lot of pearl clutching at something like that, where it's a throwaway line. And it's him saying that the entire thing needs to be paradigm shifted and rethought. And we need to get a lot of the bodies out of Washington DC, out of the swamp, actually going after criminals out there. But they're going to try to paint that with him and as well as just question his bona fides, which he's got extremely eminent qualifications. Look, the guy, the one element that seems to get overlooked a lot that I like to hammer on is he started his career as a lawyer, as a public defender, not white shoe law firm, $600 an hour public defender. I'm talking about federal public

defender, local public defender. He has an appreciation for the power that the government can bring to bear to make the process the punishment. And for anyone on the communist left to have problems with Akash Patel, when you have a person of color who came from a public defense standpoint, that's a wet dream for you. But it just sort of shows that they are not really about the messaging that they push out there because they're outcome driven. They're not really process driven people. So should we expect a Kavanaugh style, Donald Trump style Russiagate op to be launched against cash? It does seem to me, Steve, that the FBI is the birthplace of all dirty tricks, is currently housing the Epstein list, the Diddy list, all of the Biden files that they refuse to give to Chairman James Comer, who was just on the program. This is ground zero for every op that has been launched against the American public.

I mean, let's not even talk about January 6th and how many FBI agents might have been in the crowd. And how many of them behaved illegally. It seems like this is like the vanguard. This is Helms Deep, man. They must defend this place. And if we breach the ramparts here, then it's it's kind of over. And that's why they're going to, I think, do everything they can to keep cash from getting the chair. We'll go into the DNA of the FBI, right? You have Hoover, who basically had D-Rog on everyone in

order to keep the agency going. And what's amazing is you go to the old timer agents who even served underneath them. He is still a beloved figure. I think that his intentions be as they may with having the derogatory oppo research on people were just for the Bureau to attain a place. And he really came from a place, a position of wanting to root out communism, but be that as it may, he had his, his pros and his cons. Cash Patel has a chance to become the most beloved director since director Hoover, because he's going to come in and he'll be confirmed. I'm, I'm actually feeling more confident now as I'm seeing like a Ted Cruz come

out and speak on his behalf as somebody who's respected and sort of comes from the conservative side, but at the same time is, uh, has the chops and is respected across, um, the entire caucus of the Republicans. But he's going to come in when the FBI is at absolute depths, has the chops and is respected across the entire caucus of Republicans.

But he's going to come in when the FBI is at absolute depths, absolutely no trust from the public. And he's going to do something along the lines of the Twitter files. Just open up everything because he's starting with a fresh slate. He's not going to come in and get co-opted and then all of a sudden have to protect the agency. He doesn't have the rosy colored glasses in front of him. Like so many of these directors do that are just struck by the mystique and aura of the federal Bureau of investigation. He's actually seen the corruption because he worked on Russiagate and let's reveal the Epstein files.

Let's reveal the PDD files, the Vegas shooting files, the covenant Christian coverup. Let's get to all of those things. So the American people can know about it and say, Hey, look, we are coming to you and saying it's a new day. Can you give us this one chance? Because otherwise there is no way forward for the country to exist with a secret police force, the FBI. Yes. Okay. So you hit on a couple of scandals that there's too many to really enumerate. It's hard to actually keep them all in line. Now, based on your deep and institutional understanding of the FBI, what would you advise cash to do first to amend the system? Would it be the D class, the full D class? What about the mass exodus that we keep hearing about of people that would mass resign?

I mean, would you welcome that at the FBI? Oh, I would absolutely welcome it because the people that are going to be backing out are doing things that are professionally useless people for the most part. They're political ideologues who are going to take this protest and take their ball and go home with it. Most of them aren't because most FBI agents are financially beholden to the Bureau. They live hand-to-mouth, paycheck-to-paycheck, which should really render the American people very concerned that their premier law enforcement agency is filled with compromised people outside of this, the political activists. That's not going to happen.

But what I would advise cash to do a couple of things. One, eliminate the quota system, the IPM integrated program management that says the FBI has to open up a certain number of cases and arrest a certain number of people every single year, that inversely perverts the incentive structure for law enforcement, because now they're incentivized to bring crime up. Let's use the law as a weapon to get our stats up so that we can go to Congress and say, give us more funding, so our senior executives can get bonuses, because they get bonuses when their underlings arrest the right number of people.

I would also do away with the intelligence collection apparatus that they have. That's the secret police force. That's a Stasi thing. Tactical intelligence. I go to my intelligence analyst and say, hey, what's the license plate of the bad guy that I'm going after? So if I see him, I'll know. Right. But just opening up a case on Benny because I don't know, I got a funny feeling about that guy.

Let me dig into his records, which is what they do now. That needs to go away. And then also just revamp the way that they're actually bringing in the personnel, which since 2009 when Barack Obama took the reins, the personnel that have been brought in have been essentially all Marxist communists. And they are bought in wholly to the power of the FBI. And a lot of them, because they're DEI, are not capable of doing the job and they know it. So they will just follow orders in order to keep that gravy train. I mean, five years into the Bureau, you're making 130K, 50 paid days off a year, three paid hours a week to work out, work on your mental health. It's a pretty sweet gig. 50 days off a year? 50 days? That's insane. What? i don't think we take 50 hours off on this program

yeah i don't know killer klein's over here like we've slept in the studio that's insane well how do you i haven't slept since nom yeah that's right when is it we hey poor alx if we take 50 minutes off and we miss something on x i I'm like, why are we, why are we? That's garbage, dude. That's garbage. I don't know. There's this post. ALX, can you find that one post,

that FBI agent that was kneeling, the famous kneeling BLM FBI agents? I just really quickly, while I have you here, Steve, want to get your take on this. ALX will grab it. I'm sure you know the photo. It was a Neil team six. Neil team six. That's it. Neil team six. That's exactly right. So this is, of course, was, of course, allowed. Here it is right here. This is, of course, allowed. Now, I went viral by putting this up and saying her first, her first fire, her first. And you'll send a message to everyone that the FBI is back in business of fighting crimes and solving crimes and not doing exactly what you said, which is

psychotic political activism, which this photo must disgust you. Can you explain? Can you can you unpack this? Like like how endemic is this at the FBI? This is legion in the FBI. And by the way, she's been promoted since then. And all those agents got gift cards for being good and faithful servants to the regime. But this sort of person is legion in the FBI, particularly now that they are wholly bought in on the 30 by 30 initiative that's nationwide, not just the FBI, all law enforcement. It's an initiative to get to 30% female participation in law enforcement, not just to the rank and file, but actually into executive leadership positions. But it's essentially cultural Marxism because you look at it, and I have in depth, and it

says things like we need to get rid of job knowledge tests because they're discriminatory. Physical fitness standards are misogynistic. Grooming standards are anti-woman. We have to get rid of things that are, as they call them, white culture, which is like being on time and having a healthy respect for the English common law. The FBI is all in on this. All of the DOJ is. And they're getting people that are foot soldiers for absolute Marxism into positions of power and authority.

And they have all the tools to go after their political enemies. They have an ax to grind and they're going to use all the authority they've been given. This has to go away. This has to stop in immediate action. I'm talking about like this is a day one sort of thing that Director Patel is going gonna have to bring about. Yeah, okay. So final question on, I guess, FBI personnel, is in my timeline right now that Maureen Comey, James Comey's daughter, is now overseeing the Diddy case fresh off the Jelaine Maxwell case.

This just doesn't smell right. I've never worked with the FBI. I don't know James Comey. I don't want to know James Comey, but he is like how, how his daughter could get a job and then stay in good standing inside the bureau is remarkable to me. Do you think these kinds of things should be going on? Does this give you a little, does this set off an alarm for Steve friend? Well, there's an enormous amount of nepotism that goes on. Look, James Comey, he's a human walking middle finger

to the rest of the country, as tall as he is. He sort of looks like that. He ran an off the books. Especially in his Kamala shirt. Especially in his Kamala Harris white dudes for Kamala shirt. He ran an off the books honeypot operation where he told undercover female agents to infiltrate the Donald Trump campaign

and then have sex with George Papadopoulos to dig up dirt. And after that, sent agents over to the White House to go in and trap Mike Flynn. This is a guy who was surrounded by people that they called the College of Cardinals because he said that he was beyond reproach and nonpartisan. But he, again, was a communist who did favors, I'm sure, to get his daughter into a place where she can have an ax to grind. I'm sure that's recreational prosecution from her. She's getting high profile cases, which will look really good on a resume one day when she applies to high levels within the DOJ, if it's not remade by Pam Bondi or to some white shoe law firm. Wow. Yeah. What a, what a rat's nest, dude. What a system

that needs to be utterly and completely destroyed. If you're in favor of that, and if you agree with that, then you must follow Steve friend. You must. So the suspendable. Okay. I thought you were a Hamilton fan. Are you a Hamilton fan? I don't know. I mean, are you, that's okay. I mean, you can be my counterpart. Gerardo Boyle is aardo Boyle, is a wizard within the trying to draw stuff online. You'll notice that Hamilton is carrying an AR in that one. Okay. There we go. Okay. We can see the butt end of that. Okay. You got to follow Steve. He's one of the few who's like speaking truth he's one of the um truly most consequential whistleblowers in the modern era uh and a true homie and that we and we learned so

much from him him and mike ben's man whenever you have one of them on like you will get a head full of knowledge thank you steve god thanks Interesting times, ladies and gentlemen. Can't tell you how fascinated we are by the current news cycle. There is so much going on. It's very much like living in King's Landing. The great houses are at war. Backstabbing, knife fighting, cloak and dagger. We got it all in this program.

It's going to be very interesting. I've got a Game of Thrones reference and a Lord of the Rings reference. Killer Klein, are you a Game of Thrones guy or a Lord of the Rings guy? I mean, both. Lord of the Rings. Yes, that's true.

That's true. Didn't stick the landing, Game of Thrones. Didn't stick the landing. You dragged us on for 10 years and you blew it.

Pete Higgs will make Blackout Coffee the official coffee of the Pentagon. We hope so. We have a Salt That Lib. Of course, we need to post it. We need to have it because it is one of our favorite topics of all time. You may not love this topic as much as I do,

but Donald Trump trolling Canada that he's going to make Canada the 51st state. Dude, I'm telling you, my timeline is filled with Canadians that are like, do it. We'll welcome you as liberators. Donald Trump posted this AI meme of him standing overlooking the Canadian Rockies with a Canadian flag. Trump says, oh, Canada. He's proud of his comments to Justin Trudeau yesterday saying we will make Canada great again. Oh, yeah. Trump post AI-generated meme of himself with Canadian stands standing atop a Swiss mountain. Oh, okay. That is the Matterhorn there, isn't it?

Well, we'll make Switzerland Canada again. Something like that. We got you. Anyway, this is hilarious. And it is causing freakouts and losers to scream and cry. Should we just play both these clips back to back? Sounds like it.

Got the Canadian ambassador being asked about Trump taking over Canada, and Joy Reid having a meltdown in what's got to be one of her last shows on MSNBC. There's no way that her program survives. More people, if I posted a photo of my sneaker, more people would see it than watch Joy Reid's show every single day. And we love that, and we are thankful and appreciative for you for that power. We won't abuse it. And it is because we love you so much that we create the Salt That Lib every single day. Let's salt these libs, ladies and gentlemen. Get your salt shakers out. Salt on the screen. Salty Joy Reid and the Canadian ambassador. Let's go.

We are seeing a global trend of the far right surging. It isn't just happening here, but let's bring you back to the US and to our local gangster, Donald Trump. He's not even president yet and he's already spending his time sitting in his golden palace, Mar-a-Lago, muscling other countries like he's Tony Soprano with a social media site, doing things like, reportedly, debating whether or not to invade Mexico, threatening BRICS countries, Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, with 100% tariffs if they don't commit to trading

in dollars and not their own currencies. Demanding Hamas release all hostages being held in Gaza before his inauguration or there will be, quote, all hell to pay in the Middle East, even reportedly threatening Canada. According to Fox, when Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau went to Mar-a-Lago this weekend to try to talk Trump out of his 25% tariff threat, Trump apparently suggested that if Canada can't handle the tariffs that would violate the NAFTA upgrade, Trump himself signed into law the USMCA. They should just become the 51st state. Just become the 51st state instead and allow Trudeau to be reduced to governor of the state of Canada,

which caused the prime minister and others to laugh nervously. And while some are writing that off as just a joke, just a few hours ago, Trump posted this obviously AI photo of him standing on a mountaintop next to the Canadian flag, looking off into the distance with the caption, Oh, Canada. And for the record, he appears to be looking at the Matterhorn, which is on the border between Switzerland and Italy, not Canada. Oh, and let's not forget, this is the same Donald Trump, who at one point seriously wanted to buy the nation of Greenland, even possibly trade it for Puerto Rico. I wonder what this guy has

against Puerto Rico. I'll just keep noodling on it. I'm sure I'll figure it out. Bottom line, this is how Trump operates on the world stage. He acts like he's everybody's boss, like he's the king of the world, which is bad news for basically everybody, unless your name is Vladimir Putin, the boss to Trump's underboss. I'd love your response here to some reporting out of Fox News that Trump allegedly told Trudeau if Canada can't handle the impact of new tariffs, it should become an American state. There were some participants in the meeting said, you know, Trump was clearly joking. Was that your understanding of that? That comment? Yeah. Yeah. I do think it's important to emphasize that this was a really social dinner i mean there was a lot of joking storytelling there was a lot of discussion around you know uh the prime minister was asking the president about the campaign in the election

asking about mar-a-lago people were teasing each other uh they talked business we talked serious matters obviously as well but it was a three-hour dinner. And the prime minister and the president, I'll be honest, they know each other well and they enjoy each other's company. So that was the tone and tenor of it. And I have to tell you, I see it as a good thing. I see it as a good thing that there's sort of this more teasing relationship, let's just say, than something more serious. I think in Canada, we often think of ourselves as sort of like Americans' cousins, and it felt a little bit like family ribbing from my point of view. I love it. It's the Canadian ambassador saying, we love it. We will be in the 51st state. We got

you. We'll do it. Shove your syrup down Aunt Jemima's throat. We bring back Aunt Jemima. We fill her with Canadian syrup. We are good. We are one people. And then you don't have to worry about protecting your border. Think about that. Think about how much money you'll save. Right?

By switching to Geico. By switching to America. Think about how awesome it would be. The greatest country on earth would actually be if we went back, went back to tradition, okay? Bring back the lore. The lore is America invaded Mexico and conquered Mexico.

American Marines, Zachary Taylor, stationed, conquered Mexico City, which is way down the Mexican Peninsula. They conquered Mexico City. They conquered the entire country, okay? What's wrong with that? What's wrong with that? That's just manifest destiny. It happened back in the 1850s, 1840s. It is what it is. Tough, right? Cry into your salty margarita. First battle of the Revolutionary War was in Canada. The Battle of Quebec was the first battle of the Revolutionary War. Restore history.

And we won. We won. The British were really scared that we would take Canada back then. Ladies and gentlemen, now is the time. Okay, now is the time. We're winning all across the, we're winning all across every front. It's really exciting. Really quickly here.

A couple of big Ws. Trump, prosecutor Fannie Willis must turn over all communications with special counsel Jack Smith. Conservative watchdog sued her and the judge ordered it. Who was the conservative watchdog? Was it judicial watch? Hell yeah. Tom Fitton was on the show this week. Boom shakalaka.

And Madeline district attorney Fannie Willis must turn over all communications with Jack Smith and the House Judicial Committee to a conservative watchdog group. Judicial watch. Fulton County G.A. Superior Court. Robert Blurney ruled that Willis, the last person to still be prosecuting President Donald Trump, violated open records laws when she failed to respond to a FOIA request. The accountability group has filed a lawsuit in March, sought communications between the Democrat prosecutor and special counsel.

Oh, boy. Ladies and gentlemen, it's going to be great. Willis, 53, is prosecuting the only case left against Trump. Oh, this is going to be fun. Gavin Newsom is now turning on Joe Biden. Man, it sucks to suck, doesn't it? Gavin Newsom becomes the most prominent Democrat to break with Biden over son's pardon. Gavin Newsom says that Joe Biden is a complete scumbag, lied to the American people. And you know, it takes one to know one. So Gavin Newsom versus Biden. This is really exciting because we've been covering this

and very fun to watch them squirm. Go. Mr. President, why did you change your mind? President Biden ignoring questions about the sweeping pardon he granted his son, highlighting his historic trip to Angola as his presidency comes to a close. Ladies and gentlemen, as you know, I'm in the final weeks of my presidency. You don't have to clap for that. You can if you want. For a growing number of Democrats,

Biden's pardon of his son tarnishes an administration the president vowed to build on the rule of law. There's something higher at stake, which is the Department of Justice, the system of justice that we have in America. But do you think it sets a bad precedent? You turn around after you say month after month after month, you're not going to pardon your son. And then you do pardon him, putting the personal ahead of your responsibilities to the American

people. Senator Bennett also argued in The New York Times that, quote, I don't think there's any doubt that our country would have been better off if President Biden had decided not to run for reelection. The senior Senate Democrat followed the president's lead. I got nothing for you on that. With pardon in hand, Hunter's legal team has petitioned two federal courts to dismiss the indictments against him. A jury found Hunter guilty of gun-related charges in Delaware. He pled guilty to tax charges in California. The judge in Delaware refused to wipe those charges from his record today, only ordering that, quote, all proceedings in this case are hereby terminated. Hunter's attorneys have also filed a similar petition to federal court in California. We still have not gotten a decision there. Speaking of California,

California Governor Gavin Newsom, according to Politico, has just come out with some more criticism about this pardon. He says, I took the president at his word. So by definition, I'm disappointed and cannot support that decision. We'll take it. We'll take it. Rats turning on each other. Oh, wow. Joe Biden's a liar. Joe Biden's a liar?

Oh, you mean the same guy who had to drop out of the presidential election multiple times because of plagiarism? Because he literally stole other people's life stories? That guy? That guy? The guy ran with Barack Obama? The guy who said Afghanistan was a success? That you can keep your doctor if you like him?

That guy's a liar? What? The guy who said that Hunter Biden, he knew nothing about hunter biden's business dealings and then pardoned him for a very specific amount of time yeah strange that we're so concerned about we're so upset oh man these people mayor adams in new york wants migrants charged with crimes and deported. Oh, boy. What a change. What a tune change. Everyone's tap dancing to a different tune now.

Committed crime, get deported, doing the time. Mayor Eric Adams on Tuesday said that he's open to deporting migrants from New York who've been charged with crimes, a shift from his past stance, waiting for convictions. Adams, who soon plans to meet with a Donald Trump, new borders are Tom Homan, who am I correct? Alex is Tom Homan joining the program this week. I think Tom Homan is coming on the program this week. So it's freaking awesome. We're going to ask him about this. Tom Homan. Yes, we'll be on. We'll be on the program. Yes. Okay. Great.

And Klein says go easy on Joe Biden because his uncle was eaten by cannibals. You're right, Klein. I was like, you're right. Prayer's up, right? Prayer's up for Uncle Bilbo or whatever his name is. Uncle Boozy, right? It's a boozy. My Uncle Boozy, eaten? It's a boozy. My Uncle Boozy. Eaten by cannibals.

When there weren't any cannibals there, he didn't go down in a crash. And none of it's true. And the Pentagon never said that. The Pentagon literally said they don't have the record of that. Truly. You know, I'll almost miss it because you know what we're going to get next.

We're going to get one of these McKinsey associates, one of these like polished, pristine, little puckered up, you know what we're going to get next? We're going to get one of these McKinsey associates, one of these like polished, pristine, puckered up, you know, PR creations. Yeah. Like one of these sick laboratory experiment people like Gavin Newsom is. And they're not going to do the kind of like jackassery that were so entertaining with Joe Biden. It was so entertaining. It was horrible for this country. It was so funny.

It was so funny. If you didn't laugh over. It was so funny. It was so funny. If you didn't laugh over the last couple of years, I got nothing for you, right? So Eric Adams is now saying that he's going to meet with Trump's team and now he plans to deport

migrant criminals. It's the first step. Next is going to be all criminal migrants because they're criminals, right? This is very interesting how he's setting this up. Huh.

I didn't actually think about this. Okay. So, get a load of this. And ALS, can you grab me that can you grab me that Jerry, you keep sharing these memes that we can't put on the show. I'm sorry. Jerry's memes are too savage. We will share with you all of the all of the memes

that I've been sending Cash Patel. Okay? So, the FBI hacked Cash Patel. And what they're going to find they're going to be like, oh man, here's the Benny chat. Here? So the FBI hacked, the FBI hacked Cash Patel, and then what they're going to find, they're going to be like, oh man, here's the Benny chat. Here we go now, here's the good stuff.

They're going to find all these memes. That's what they're going to find. And you know what they're going to do? They're all going to follow me secretly from their burner and sock accounts. Because like, these memes are hilarious. That's what they're going to say. These memes are hilarious.

The FBI, my FBI agents, they're just going to laugh their asses off. All right. This is very fascinating. So he says he's going to deport all the criminals

before like convictions or anything. Well, by definition, according to American law, and what you want to look at is the 1964 Immigration and Nationalization Act.

By definition, all of these criminal aliens are criminal aliens because they entered the country illegally. They weren't welcomed here. They are here against the will and order of the American people and Congress and the powers that be. That makes them a criminal. You are a felon if you remain in the United States of America illegally.

You're a next felony if you cross our borders illegally without express permission at our port of entry. So this is Eric Adams saying effectively, wait a second, every illegal is classified as a criminal. Deport every illegal. The smart, the smart, yeah, the smart.

Kid's smart. Maybe this is the way you deport all, I mean, listen, criminal aliens have wrought horrors upon New York. We were in New York for the Madison Square Garden rally. Dude, it's bad. It was bad. I've never seen the

city so shabby. Entire parts of the city were like no-go zones now because of migrant crime. This will be a hugely popular thing in New York City. Okay, ladies and gentlemen, talk about hugely popular things. Here we go. Here are some memes. Here are some of my favorite Kash Patel memes. All right. Let's begin here with Kash Patel's nomination. A live shot of Kash Patel's nomination. With a Fox News alert. President-elect Donald Trump. A message to the FBI. As you can see, the more you fuck around, the more you're going to find out.

I love that picture so much. Cash doesn't. But I love that photo. I don't think he quite understands the mematic value of that photo. Cash Patel's first day at the FBI. Yeah, let's go. Elon Musk with the kitchen sink. Cash Patel's head on Elon Musk.

Let's go, let's do a couple more here. Marijuana, beer, cocaine, justice. This is what happens. This is what happens with your eyes. Good. Spirit Halloween. Open it up. Let's get some money.

I'm gonna work on it. You got to work on your cat. You got to work on your cash Patel face

Alright, everyone's's gotta do it. There you go. That's good enough. Like, what do they do to cash to get them to try not to laugh? I think this is his official portrait, right? This is his official FBI when he was working on DOJ. Oh my god.

And then you I kind of... That's my official catch. There you go. DOD. This is official portrait of the DOD. Were they trying to do him dirty?

This is the show. Memes and memeing things into existence, right? We are gonna meme it all into existence. This is what we're gonna do. We're gonna manifest. Manifesting is how you get things done in this world. Ladies and gentlemen, we are going to get some things done. We will go once more to Mar-a-Lago this weekend.

We wish to have every single one on a Christmas tree all around the country because we wish to bring joy and light to all of you. How do we do that every day?

All year long with our verse of the day. From John 6, 35. Jesus replied, I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty. Got to tell you what, man. Feast and famine around here. You're right.

If you've been a longtime viewer of the show, we love you and we thank you. There's been some feast and some famine. We've been hungry. We've been thirsty. There's been some dark days and some days that you really wonder, like, how do we get out of this? And this is why we do the verse of the day, because Christ is always our rock. Christ is our king. And no matter what the day holds, we are able to cling firmly to our Lord and Savior. And we are immovable, the man who builds his house on the rock. So if you're hungry, if you're thirsty, if you're in need, and we're all in need, obviously, make sure you find your faith in something that doesn't change, something that is the rock.

Make sure you put your faith in the rock, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And a happy birthday, by the way, to Christ this Christmas season. Put up our nativity yesterday, actually, in our yard. And happy birthday to Dan Bongino. It's his 50th birthday. Freaking Dan Bongino, what a legend.

Dan Bongino's a great homie and has launched so many careers in this profession and has been an advisor and an inspiration to so many young creators. He's too humble to say it, but I'll say it on his behalf. Happy birthday, Dan. One of the few people in this backstabbing industry that will actually pick up the phone call and give sage advice and wisdom. And will do it without asking for money or favor.

Freaking Dan Bongino, the OG America First podcast. The first America First podcast is Dan Bongino. And he paved the way for a lot of us.
