get ready to hear the truth about america on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host
dan bongino all right folks another new york times bombshell on trump which means what
little pop quiz for those of you at home will listen to the show what is a trump uh an anti
trump bombshell from the new york times it means it's an anti-bombshell. It means it's a non-bombshell.
It means there's no bomb in the shell,
no shell in the bomb.
It's not a bombshell.
It landed with a big thud and a whimper.
The story, of course, was about Trump's taxes,
a story that has been relitigated
62,000 different ways from Sunday,
4,000 different ways from Saturday,
and over and over again.
But the timing of the anti-Trump
non-bombshell bombshell is awfully coincidental, isn't it? We learned something on Friday after I
had recorded the show on Friday. What did we learn? Oh, we learned a lot about the old Spygate
scandal, the targeting of Flynn and elsewhere.
We got some gems there.

more time. All right, Joe, let's go. Ding, ding, ding. There's my Joe Bell, just like Joe's voice,
equally awful. I need a little comedy in my life. It's been a challenging week, to say the least.
Made a lot easier again because of you.
All right, let me get to some important stuff first.
You know, President Trump made a huge announcement.
This weekend was like a monster for news.
And conveniently, I was Friday up in New York flying around.
And by the time I recorded, missed most of it.
But it's good because it leads you to a loaded Monday show.
President Trump nominated Amy Coney Barrett for the now
empty Supreme Court seat due to the passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. You probably saw that on
Saturday. It leaked out right around Friday night that she was going to be the selection,
Amy Coney Barrett. Now, there's a topic I've discussed often on the show about how Democrats
can never get anything done, anything big, by convincing 51% of people to vote for it.
Because why?
Think this through.
Paula, because I don't have Joe here.
You're going to have to be the audience on Buzzman today, okay?
Why can't the Democrats get their big ticket items passed through the normal electoral process?
You know, abortion and stuff where you can legislate all that stuff.
There's social issues.
Why? Because their ideas generally suck that's why a wealth tax all that kind of stuff why can't they
move that through and get people to vote for because people don't want it that's why government
run health care so being that the democrats i promise this relates to amy coney barrett don't
think i lost it i didn't being that the Democrats can't convince people that their sucky ideas are non-sucky,
what they typically do is they use the courts to institute those ideas.
You know, finding a right to an abortion in the Constitution.
I've leafed through the Constitution.
I'm like, Constitution.
Wait, I even have the app on my phone.
You're like, Constitution, search function, abortion.
No, I don't see it.
I see a couple of notifications from the Wall Street Journal.
Paul, have you ever found abortion in the Constitution?
No, no, she's nodding her head.
I haven't found that either.
But because the Democrats know they can't convince 51% of people
that unfettered access to abortion is just a wonderful thing for everyone,
they have to have the courts find it in the Constitution when it's not even there.
Now, getting back to amy
coney barrett why are the liberals so terrified as i have titled this segment in my handwriting
as i do it in the most primitive yet effective way possible the real importance of the amy coney
barrett nomination is now starting to hit the democrats because why if there is a 6-3 relatively conservative majority on the court
for even five to 10 years, ladies and gentlemen, the court option for ideological agenda items,
they can't get past because 51% of people think those ideas suck. The court option is effectively
foreclosed. So keep in mind,
the Democrats have traditionally three battle
plans for getting their big ticket ideological
agenda items passed.
They can put it on a ballot and run
candidates who support it in a constitutional
republic. They rarely do that because
their ideas, again, really
suck. They can go the second
route, which is legalize
it through the courts, get a fake judge
in a black robe who's really a politician to say there's a right to an abortion in the Constitution.
And third, they can use just plain social pressure and boycotts to get cancel culture and get their
ideological enemies suppressed, which makes their ideas more powerful because their enemies can't
speak. That's your three for right there. One of those avenues could
potentially be closed off now because Amy Coney Barrett will not find new laws that don't exist
and new rights in the constitution that aren't there. Wall Street Journal covered this today.
It was an excellent, excellent point. And it's important you understand this. Check out this
piece, Wall Street Journal. The importance of Amy Coney Barrett, pretty simple, the editorial board.
The judge can solidify an originalist majority on the high court.
They make this exact point.
And listen, I'm not trying to take credit for their op-ed, please, but we have discussed
this before repeatedly on the show.
How leftists and their big ticket liberal agenda items, right?
Government controlled health care, access up to abortion up until after the baby's born
in some cases.
These are things they have no way of getting passed by running for office because people
don't want them.
Even in liberal states, they don't want these things.
They'll never get them passed, ever.
So they had to use the courts.
Now, a 6-3 potential conservative majority.
Again, we're being generous, 6-3, because we all know John Roberts is not a conservative.
Whatevs.
We'll pass on that for now.
Here's the Wall Street Journal today making this exact point, talking about the Amy Coney
Barrett nomination.
Quote, Democrats view all this with horror, but we think they would be wiser to view it
as an opportunity.
One reason court nominations have become so bitter is because
progressives have long viewed the judiciary as a second legislature for policies they can't pass
in Congress. Amen. Think racial preferences and climate regulation, Massachusetts versus EPA.
If the legislative avenue is for, if this avenue, excuse me, the judicial avenue is foreclosed, as we hope it will be, then the left may have to achieve what they want the
old-fashioned way, democratic persuasion and consent.
Oh my gosh, democratic persuasion and consent in a constitutional republic.
What do you mean, man?
You mean they're actually going to have to convince people their ideas don't suck?
Yeah, that's exactly what i'm telling you
and they're freaking out about it now the wall street journal seems to think this could be good
a potential solution for the democrat party's far-left radical problem where now they'll
understand that they don't have public support for most of what they do and their legal avenues through the courts are now closed off at least
shouldn't say most cases to be clear are decided at the appellate level just so we're clear on this
very few make it to the supreme court but the supreme court is the final word that avenue could
now be closed off for them forcing them to do the unthinkable. The unthinkable.
Which is what?
Have to convince people that their ideas are anti-sucky.
Which would be really, really hard.
Because the whole essence of being a liberal is to have sucky ideas.
Now they can't seem to get rid of the nonsense talking points, by the way.
You're going to hear a whole bunch of them.
What do we do here? What's the whole purpose of the Dan Bongino Show? To correct the waterfall of liberal misinformation you're exposed to every day through our broken culture and media apparatus.
So don't worry, I've got you covered. So there will be numerous attacks on Amy Coney Barrett,
her family, her friends, her kids, her pets, her home, her neighbors, every place she's
visited, her car, the person who made her car, her mechanic, the deli she eats at, the guy who
opens the door in the deli, the Walmart server near her. They'll all become implicated, of course,
in a RICO case against Amy Coney Barrett. It'll all, of course, be made up like it was in Kavanaugh,
but it's the media, so facts and stuff don't really matter.
But they'll just say things that are downright stupid that are easily debunked by a crazy thing like an Internet search, you know, on your phone or I got a computer right here.
So let's go to this one.
So here is a University of Michigan law professor and a legal analyst.
Legal analyst for NBC.
This is hilarious.
Here's the great, and believe me, I use that term great loosely, Barb McQuaid on Twitter.
At Barb McQuaid.
She has a Ruth Bader Ginsburg avatar there.
Bader Ginsburg avatar there.
She says,
if Coney Barrett's confirmed the Supreme court will have five justices,
a majority nominated by presidents who did not win the popular vote.
Barrett,
Kavanaugh,
Gorsuch by Trump and Alito and Roberts by George W.
Bush.
This is a legal analyst for NBC and a law professor.
Ladies and gentlemen,
if this is your law professor,
you may want to find another law school to go to.
So this is a University of Michigan law professor.
I want to hat tip,
so there's a guy on the Trump team I saw on Twitter and put this out.
Here's another University of Michigan law professor.
This is really a banner day
for the University of Michigan law school. She really banner day for the University of Michigan Law School.
These guys and ladies are real rock stars.
This is the great and by great, I mean not great at Nicholas underscore Bagley.
Another he somehow got a blue checkmark about Barb McQuaid's tweet about how all these justices were nominated by President Sunan when the popular vote saying that's a remarkable fact.
And by fact, Nicholas Bagley means a non-fact of course,
because they're probably liberals.
So this is easy enough to check out.
No,
president Trump did not.
In fact,
when the popular vote,
they are correct about that.
So Gorsuch,
Kavanaugh,
and now Amy Coney Barrett,
that part is correct.
But that's not what she said in her tweet and not what was affirmed by the
other university of Michigan law professor who really needs to go back um and re-evaluate what a fact
means maybe try like dictionary.com or whatever um so i checked this out took me all of about what
paula 20 seconds maybe did it tweet maybe less possibly 10 i'm not i don't know it depends on
my internet connection so when were samuel Alito and John Roberts nominated by President
George W. Bush? Does anybody know? Again, a basic internet search would show you that was in his
second term. His second term began in 2005. Did President Bush lose the popular vote when he won
the presidency on reelection? Well, if you actually Google that question,
you get 270towin.com. I would have went to Wikipedia first to show the left, how even
they're hilarious left-leaning sites like Wikipedia, but I don't want to give Wikipedia
any clicks because it's a scam site. So it is. I mean, they lie all the time. They lie about my
own stuff. So I went to 270towin.com and I checked this fact out uh john kerry 59 million votes for the presidency he lost for
the democrats listening um george w bush won with 62 million votes so paula again because joe is not
here but listening joe just nod your head in approval is did george w bush paula get more or
less popular votes than john f kerry please i, I'll wait. Take a second. I know this is
tough. She's looking. She's analyzing. She's nodding her head. She's turning her head to
give me an answer. More. Thank you. Thank you. So George W. Bush, now we can see Joe. So Joe
is nodding in approval here too. So that in fact is a stupid talking point that is
totally fabricated and made up. There were not five justices appointed by presidents who lost
the popular vote. There were three and a basic internet search would have showed you that fact.
But you know, University of Michigan Law School, you may, and I know Google searching and stuff
that may be really hard. You may have had to go to the law library and you may have missed that one. All right, moving on because
I got a lot to get to. I'm going to get to my second sponsor and come back with a moment of
brief comic relief to show you how stupid the media and others can be and the hilarious CNN.
This is a great clip. I got that. Then we got some serious stuff, the fake news bombshell,
not bombshell in the New York Times story.
So don't go anywhere.
All right.

So getting back to this, I got a little bit of comic relief here for you.
Just, you know, it is a Monday.
I don't want to hit you with all this and uh overly deep stuff uh without breaking it up so here is a clip from
cnn so cnn was doing a a live hit from the steps of the supreme court and as they're doing it a
couple of uh patriots were in the background here this This is just hilarious. Listen, watch this thing go off the rails.
Check this out.
Well, absolutely.
I just wanted to say that while we were here, the crowd behind us, Trump supporters, started
chanting the name of Trump.
You can hear them getting a little bit of Trump support here.
It's a crowd of Trump supporters.
Arianna, I want you to stand by.
We can barely hear what you're saying because of the crowd behind you.
Absolutely hilarious.
Wolf Blitzer's doing a live hit from the steps of the Supreme Court.
I'm sorry.
This guy's driving me crazy.
Was this guy out?
Why are they cutting my right now?
I'm in the middle of a show.
They're driving me nuts.
What do they got?
Some kind of land.
What are they doing?
Building a bomb shelter next door. Can you hear hear that through this what is going on out there can you open the
window open the window can you see what they're doing out there this is making me nuts it totally
distracted me all right now i need some comic relief uh what's it no lee i don't want you to
cut that out i want you to leave that in because i hope it's not creeping through the microphone there's like some kind i don't know what to do are they
excavating to a for a pre-world war two uh 70 feet below the ground bomb shelter next door gosh
that's not fake news that's real unlike cnn no leave it in we don't uh this is my show we this
is we tell you all right good calm down a little bit. CNN's fake news.
You see that clip?
That clip is hilarious.
That's one of the funniest.
Not related, by the way, to anything I'm talking about today
because CNN's always fake news.
Dan, that's certainly related to your New York Times story next.
No, no, no.
That's a perpetual good story.
That's what we call in the business an evergreen story,
CNN being fake news.
All right, moving on to the real stuff.
So the New York Times released one of their fake non-bombshell bombshells.
Again, there's no bomb.
There's no shell.
There's no bombshell.
There's no nothing.
Here's this headline, of course, being pumped by the ridiculous fake news
specialists, CNN, New York Times, and elsewhere.
New York Times, David Leonhardt, I'm not sure about his name,
long concealed records show Trump's chronic losses
and years of tax avoidance, September 27th, 2020.
First, before I even get started with the story.
So you understand what the fake bombshell is here, right?
President Trump doesn't pay a lot of taxes
to which Paula and I and everyone else listening are going,
nice.
So you're not saying it's tax evasion, right?
Because that's a crime, which we would
not say nice about.
Don't commit crimes?
Paula, would you agree with that? Good advice?
Yes, thank you. Please don't commit crimes.
But that's not what that headline says.
It says that President Trump has avoided paying a lot of taxes.
Tax avoidance.
Now, tax evasion is a crime.
Tax avoidance is a national pastime.
Dan, you can't say that.
I can't.
It's true.
If tax avoidance was not a national pastime, John Kerry would be in prison.
Yeah, the one we talked about who lost the popular vote that the University of Michigan
law professors weren't aware of.
They must have missed that election.
Remember John Kerry?
Was he parking his boat in Rhode Island to avoid Massachusetts taxes?
Remember that story?
Was he doing anything illegal?
No, I'm not alleging that.
He was
doing what every American does. What do they do? Pay as little taxes as possible, right?
Why do you have to pay your accountant? You ever hear that thing on the internet,
parlor, Twitter, Facebook, whatever? You ever hear that thing out there on social media,
said no one ever? You know, when they want to make a joke about things no one would ever say, they say said
no one ever.
Accountant Joey Bagadonis, can you do me a favor?
Can you pay the maximum rate possible to the U.S. government?
Can you do that for me?
Said literally no one ever in the history of humankind.
So the New York, can you run the headline again, please?
So the New York Times headline is what?
Trump guilty of tax evasion? No, no, can you run the headline again, please? So the New York times headline is what Trump guilty of tax evasion.
No, no, that's not the headline.
The headline should act like a promo for the Trump campaign that president Trump,
that they had years of tax avoidance after business losses.
Good for you.
Smart.
Now the New York times in this article, by the way, conveniently launched right as new collusion hoax Spygate scandal stuff comes out.
Just a coinkydink, I'm sure. Look, shiny red object.
The New York Times is writing a story about how Trump, who is a billionaire, whose businesses have made and lost money when they made money.
whose businesses have made and lost money when they made money.
Let me walk to the New York Times.
I own a business.
I am not an accountant, but I have one.
He's very good.
We do things by the numbers, but I'm pretty sure I know how businesses work.
For the New York Times folks, and if you're a liberal out there who's confused about tax law, can I unconfuse you for a minute?
When you have a business and the business loses money, which happens often
in business a lot, some years are good, some are not so good. Some businesses are going to sadly
lose a lot of money this year. Let me coach the New York Times, who apparently knows about as
much about taxes and accounting as they do about collusion, foreign affairs, healthcare, law enforcement,
and economics, meaning they know nothing because they're some of the dumbest people on the planet,
are apparently unaware that when your business loses money, wait for it,
you don't pay taxes on the income.
You don't? Because you didn't have any.
You don't?
Because you didn't have any.
I know this is a shocker in the newsroom of the New York Times.
Just to be clear, Trump may have had business loss.
They may have been significant.
I don't know the man's business acumen.
You know why?
I'm not in business with him.
I don't care.
I vote for President Trump and support him because he does conservative stuff.
And shocker, I'm a conservative.
I don't know what he does with his businesses.
I don't know what's working, what's not working.
I'm not in real estate.
I'm in content production.
I'm in social media.
I'm in video companies.
I'm in other stuff.
I'm not in that.
I don't know.
I don't care.
He just appointed a conservative justice that could make the court conservative and originalist for a long time. I'm good. I'm not really interested about how
Trump International is filing its tax returns or what his golf courses are up to. I don't care.
So the New York Times and the newsroom that's stunned to find out that businesses don't pay
income taxes on corporate profits they don't have. This is a stunner. The New York Times and the newsroom that's stunned to find out that businesses don't pay income taxes on corporate profits they don't have.
This is a stunner.
The New York Times newsroom is in shock right now.
Decided to do a, what, 5,000 word expose on that Americans who don't earn corporate profits don't have to pay taxes on profits they don't have.
Are you stunned, Paula? I don't have to pay taxes on profits they don't have. Are you stunned, Paula?
I don't have Joe here.
I need my show.
It's a crutch for me.
It's a crutch for me.
I need to talk to someone because I'm just like a social guy.
Are you stunned to figure this out?
You're not stunned?
She is stunned.
She's doing that thing again. But she nods her head and then says, yeah. She is stunned. She's doing that thing again,
where she nods her head and then says,
yeah, she's stunned.
Absolutely stunned to figure out
that if you don't earn corporate profits,
you don't have to pay taxes on it.
Now, you would think in this big non-bombshell bombshell,
there's no bomb, there's no shell, there's no nothing,
that there would definitely be something, because it's the New York Times.
I mean, fake news is their thing.
Remember the collusion pee-pee hoaxers?
You'd think there would definitely, I want to hat tip Raheem Kassan at the National Pulse
by this, and there's a great story in the show notes about this too, from the National
Pulse, also on Bongino Report.
This is a screenshot from him and the Beast.
You'd think they would have definitely found more pee-pee hoax stuff and collusion hoax
stuff, right? I mean, it's a
bombshell. Bombshell. Huge.
This will impact exactly
zero votes in the election, by the way.
So let's see the New York Times
story. Again, hat tip, Raheem
Kassan for these
highlights here. So in the middle of the story
we find out that the tax filings
that the New York Times got, and I'll get to that in a second
too, will leave many questions unanswered and many questioners unfulfilled uh it sounds like
some bombshell there does that sound like a bombshell to you paul huge bombshell huge she's
she's sarcastically huge here check this one out nor do they reveal any previously unreported
connections to russia i'm i, again, trying to figure out.
So there's no allegations.
I had a highlight.
Let me get up.
This is for later in case I have to cover this tomorrow.
I like to underline stuff.
I don't like to forget as talking points during the show so you don't forget.
So we come away with a bombshell with no bomb, no shell,
that alleges no criminality, no collusion,
and that there were years Trump's corporations lost money,
lost money, therefore had no profits,
so didn't pay corporate profit taxes on profits that didn't exist.
Am I missing something there?
The excavation for the bomb shelter has stopped, by the way.
Paul's like, you want me to cut that out?
Hell no, I don't want you to cut that out.
I'm really just curious what the point of this story was outside to distract you
from the collusion hoax stuff that came out on Friday.
One more point on this that's important.
Really important. day one more point on this that's important really important folks our government's now
been fully weaponized african conspiracy theory is it uh really we've had the fbi and the
intelligence agencies weaponized against president trump they basically invented a fake scandal to
spy on an american citizen who happened to be running for president. I would only call that the biggest scandal of our time.
But your tax returns aren't safe anymore either.
The IRS will probably come after me, I'm guessing.
Watch when I get audited.
We'll go back to this.
What's today's date, folks?
September 28th.
I will probably get audited too.
Fine.
I honestly don't care because I have nothing to worry about.
But the IRS, along with the CIA, intelligence agencies, and the upper ranks of the FBI have
now been fully and completely weaponized. The president's tax returns, he's an American citizen.
He's entitled to some financial privacy. And if he doesn't want that and he wants to disclose his
tax returns, he's free to do so. And if he doesn't want that and he wants to disclose his tax returns,
he's free to do so.
And if he doesn't want to,
he's free not to.
If you were a conservative right now,
I would not trust anyone.
I am very sorry to tell you that.
I don't base that on conjecture or conjecture, excuse me,
or speculation.
I base that on the real world.
Donald Trump's life.
It'll be, watch,
it'll be his medical records next
that'll become public.
Some already have. It'll be, watch, it'll be his medical records next that'll become public. Some already have.
You could be next.
You live in a society right now
that thanks to the liberal cancer infecting us
has broken down all previous barriers.
Your privacy isn't safe.
Nothing is safe.
Oh, Dan, that sounds really harsh.
Does it?
The president of the United States, someone leaked his tax returns to write a BS story
that alleges no criminality and confirms for the millionth time no collusion, and yet it's
treated as a bombshell, and no one seems even remotely worried about that.
Of course, this won't happen to liberals because conservatives who work at the irs and elsewhere
don't break the law because they believe in big r god-given rights liberals don't
the radical left is a postulating infectatum on america's caboose right now
that has just destroyed all prior norms and you're not safe anywhere
they'll burn your businesses down they'll leak your tax records i'm telling you your health
records are next they don't even care they'll go to prison in, they'll leak your tax records. I'm telling you, your health records are next. They don't even care.
They'll go to prison in the name of some higher calling.
There's no higher calling.
Their only calling is chaos.
Whatever happened here at the IRS is a disgrace.
Whoever's involved in this, with this leak,
if there was a leak from the IRS, should be prosecuted and thrown in prison.
And I don't mean for a year.
I mean for a sentence that sends a message.
This is an absolute disgrace.
Well, now we find out what they're hiding, too.
It's totally disgusting.
I can't even imagine ever doing this.
Really, I had some significant power
as a GS 1811 federal investigator.
I cannot even imagine sacrificing my morals for this.
Let me get to you what they're hiding in a minute.
Let me get to my next sponsor and we'll do that.
But ladies and gentlemen,
there's a lot to cover up this week, a lot.
So they needed this non-bombshell bombshell story
that again, alleges no criminality
and confirms no collusion.
We'll get to that in a second.
It's important.

Getting back to the show.
All right.
So this came out on Friday.
And as you know, Friday, I had flown up to New York for the medical procedures and stuff.
So we had to tape super early.
We had heard about it, but I did not have the time to go into it in the way you deserve on
my show. We don't skip show prep here. I don't just casually mention stuff without giving you
the deets, the details. And I really wanted to do that Clinton stuff on Friday, which blew up.
That show went crazy. And thanks for listening to my interview with Dinesh D'Souza too, which also
blew up. It was fantastic. He was great. I'm giving him credit, not me. He was awesome. He's the best interview ever. You don't even get to the questions because he goes in all
these directions and I'm just fascinated by it. But this did happen on Friday and now you deserve
the Dan Bongino coverage of it. Let's go to this national review piece, which none of this will
surprise you if you're a regular listener. But again, now the things I've been telling you for
three and a half years are now confirmed to be true. Ding, ding,
ding,
ding,
ding.
National review,
Zachary Evans,
FBI documents.
Primary subsource for steel was a suspected Russian agent and a quote
threat to national security.
What?
Uh,
so just to be clear, as I've been telling you again for three and a half years
the FBI used a peepee hoax to spy on the Trump team the peepee hoax dossier was allegedly written
by a man named Christopher Steele and more Steele, I got this information from a source. And now we find out,
thanks to declassified documents by the attorney general, that the source Steele's claiming to use
for his information was a, quote, threat to national security and a potential Russian spy. russian spy oh my oh my so we were told what again by these ridiculous jokers do you still
have the cnn sucks video we i may need to play hold on just hold i don't mean to throw paula
into a tizzy here we keep our production team low low here precisely because we don't want to get involved
in like another,
like this Joe Rogan disaster that's happening,
which I hope to get to in a little bit.
I like people around me I can trust.
Shocker, running a business, right?
But the media has been telling you what?
Trump was colluding with suspected Russian agents to interfere and win the
2016 election. That's what we've been told. Well, we know that's all like pee-pee hoax stuff. That's
all simple lies and fairy tales, absurd fables, outrageous stories. Yet the media, the morons in
the media promoted this thing for years. But now we find out what? That not only was that story not true,
but in fact, it appears that the FBI
and others were colluding with an actual Russian agent
to spy on the Trump team.
You can't make this up.
Let's go to the National Review.
What are you laughing about?
National Review piece.
So we've got some more declassified information.
This happened on Friday.
Again, sorry I couldn't bring it to you right away,
but you deserve a thorough going through with this.
So FBI agents on the Crossfire Hurricane probe
into the Trump team,
who investigated alleged contacts
between the Trump campaign and Russian intelligence,
were aware that the primary subsource for Steele
was a suspected Russian spy by December of 2016?
However, the FBI did not share this information with the FISA court in their applications for warrants against Page.
Gosh, that sounds awfully odd.
According to footnote 334 of the Inspector General report, quote, the primary
subsource was the subject of an FBI
counterintelligence investigation
from 2009 to 2011
that assessed
his documented contacts with
suspected Russian intelligence officers?
Oh, my God.
I'm getting a headache with this stuff
Paula hates the Spygate stuff
she can't stand it
this is good
no she likes this
to get the Spygate stuff past the Paula
editorial board control is a lot
because she sometimes feels
like it gets overly complicated
this is not hard
how much easier does it get?
This can't get any simpler.
The FBI and the, I want to say something else, canoes, I use this word often, I shouldn't, I know, in the media told us what?
Trump was colluding with Russian agents.
That, of course, fell apart and was completely made up.
Trump was colluding with Russian agents.
That, of course, fell apart and was completely made up.
But now we know for a fact that the source the FBI was using through Christopher Steele to get their information about Trump was, in fact, a Russian agent that the FBI themselves were investigating as a threat to national security.
Where's the media coverage on it oh the media is covering the fact that donald trump's businesses lost money and didn't pay profits on money they didn't make stunner stunner that's the that's the
bombshell not this the united states government's premier law enforcement agency the fbi used
information from a russian spy to spy on a presidential candidate. Let me say that again
for the liberal lunatics and media morons watching this. The FBI used information from a Russian spy.
They investigated themselves to spy on the president of the United States. Vladimir Putin
has to be slapping his knee right now, laughing his ass off about how stupid our media
and upper level of the FBI was for falling for this and promoting this. Again, you haven't been
wasting your time here. I knew this a long time ago. I had to be very careful what I told you.
Not because I was hiding anything from
you, but because I can't burn sources either. Again, go back and read my three books on this
now. By the way, my book, Follow the Money, technically doesn't come out till next Tuesday.
My new book, but if you order it now, Follow the money, which has a extensive chapter on the relationship with these FBI guys and shady sources, it'll probably get to you before the release date.
Check it out on Amazon, Barnes & Noble.
I'm really trying to get it to number one.
America needs to know this story.
But Exonerated, Spygate, get the trilogy.
They cover this whole thing.
I'm not sure I'm going to write another book ever.
I'm not one of these guys who wants to pump out a book every year,
but this case is too important.
I warned you about this three years ago,
that the real people colluding with the Russians
were the FBI and the Clinton campaign.
And now we know for sure.
It's irrefutable.
The FBI was investigating the source they were using as a Russian spy and a threat to national security.
Threat to national security is their words.
So either the FBI doesn't know who a Russian spy or a threat to national security is,
and therefore were investigating the wrong guy,
which no one's alleged or they were and use this information anyway,
thinking he was a Russian spy and threat to national security because they
hated Trump that much.
Oh my gosh,
this is frustrating.
And yet we're called the conspiracy theorist by liberal lunatic media idiots
like CNN who got this wrong the whole time.
Oh, that CNN video is priceless.
It would have been so much better if the bomb shelter constructors next door weren't so loud at the time.
Remember what I told you?
This is going to be the next shoe to drop, by the way.
Mark it.
And to all you folks who are really interested in this Spygate case,
so now we know the FBI colluded with a Russian spy through Stee steel okay we know that it's just a fact to spy on trump i'm
really sorry if that bothers you but what's the next shoe to drop how exactly did christopher
steel who is the alleged author of the pp ho dossier. Paul, I need you to track this.
If this doesn't make sense, you need to give me a little hand signal.
How did Christopher Steele connect with the primary subsource who we now know is being
investigated as a Russian spy and a, quote, threat to national security?
What's the biggest scandal of spy gate?
They say, oh, they spied on President Trump.
That's not even the biggest one.
It's big, but it's not the biggest.
The biggest scandal is how they managed to do it.
This was always the pee-pee hoax and all the other stuff.
Always fake information.
Always.
It was all made up.
The Trump collusion thing was always made up.
Ladies and gentlemen, listen to me.
It was always made up. There is not a, it's all made up. The Trump collusion thing was always made up. Ladies and gentlemen, listen to me.
It was always made up.
There is not a, it's just made up.
Stop looking for it.
It's not, it's made up.
The information was always made up.
But to give it a patina, an air of this could be potentially true.
To give it a crust of truthfulness. They attributed this made up fake information to very real people.
Who.
Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen.
They attributed the fake information, Steele and others, to very real people.
And those people may have been Russian spies.
And those people may have been Russian spies.
How did Steele make that connection and know to attribute the information to a guy being investigated as a Russian spy to give it some fake air of authenticity?
Funny FaceTime who exactly gave steel that guy's name
stay tuned folks John Brennan right now sweat comingat coming down his back. Who exactly did that? What's the real Spygate
scandal? That's they spied. Yes, you paid for it through Pentagon contracts with your tax dollars.
You paid to spy on the guy you picked for president. That's right. Your tax dollars. Sorry,
but it happened. It was always fake information attributed to very real names and how those names became
in the possession of others to attribute the fake information to is the real scandal
all right i got more as always this is like an infomercial wait there's more we're waiting for
like that dude who sells the uh sham wow or whatever. Wait, there's more. We're waiting for like that dude who sells the ShamWow or whatever to come away.

There's always more, of course.
This case gets worse because even more dropped on Friday.

tactical nuke on the battlefield.

I know you love it.
There's nothing like this anywhere
because no one's like that.
No one's as crazy as I am on the air sometimes.
Let's get back to the real content.
So wait, there's more.
The ShamWow moment here. Oh yeah, there's more. The ShamWow moment here.
Oh yeah, there's more in the Spygate case
and the Flynn, the Mike Flynn hoax.
No, Mike Flynn's not a hoax.
He really exists.
But the witch hunts against Mike Flynn
was always a hoax and was a hoax from the start.
The Federalist, which is just terrific.
We love the Federalist.
I use their stuff as often as I can.
By the great Sean Davis
and the equally great Molly Hemingway
have a piece
up that describes this entire disaster. This came out on Friday too. In addition to the fact that
we now know the FBI was colluding with a Russian spy to target Trump. Headline the Federalist,
Trump was right. Explosive new FBI texts detail an internal furor over the handling of the
crossfire hurricane investigation trump was right
by the way you may say oh damn bongino those are his words and sean davis and mali him no no that's
the text trump was right from the fbi guys that's not my words trump was right it could be my words
but not for the sake of this piece so just to be clear now more more stuff has come out? Yes, yes, it has.
Sidney Powell's gotten a hold of some more texts.
Listen, by the way, before I get to the texts here in the Flynn case,
I'm telling you right now, Judge Sullivan, you know,
he's not really a judge.
He's not acting as one, certainly, who is supposedly judging the Mike Flynn case,
which has become an embarrassment for the courts and everyone else.
The longer this goes on and the longer you torture Mike Flynn, the more humiliating and
embarrassing this is going to be for you and everyone else. Let's look at a little tidbit
of what continues to come out as Sidney Powell plumbs the depths of deep state disasters.
And as they keep talking about Flynnnn she keeps grabbing more these are actual
texts from fbi agents involved in the case and this first one ladies and gentlemen is very important
quote january 10 2017 one agent texted another quote we all want and purchase professional liability insurance, end quote.
This is the same day CNN, fake news, leaked details that then President-elect Trump had been briefed by Comey about the bogus Christopher Steele dossier.
That briefing of Trump was used as a pretext to legitimize the debunked dossier financed
by the DNC in the Clinton campaign and compiled by a foreign intelligence officer who was
working for a sanctioned Russian oligarch.
Again, this is why I couldn't cover this on Friday,
because you deserve the detailed treatment
about what all this means.
So let's just go to that first part first,
the Federalist.
They mention in there, Sean,
that the FBI agents working on the case texted each other after they saw the CNN story on January 10th about Trump's meeting with Comey.
We got to get professional liability insurance.
Why would you do that?
Now, to be clear, I was a federal agent.
It's not uncommon for agents to have professional
liability insurance, like any business would. You don't want to get sued personally. You're
usually indemnified by the government, usually 99.9% of the time, if what you did and you're
being sued for was done in the course of your duties and legally, to be clear.
Meaning, but not every agent gets it. I'm not even sure I had it the whole time.
I think I had it
for a couple of years
and then let it lapse
because I wasn't worried
about crazy things
like doing anything illegal
or outside of the scope
of my duty.
I know, shocker to the left,
who thinks we're the troublemakers.
So why would you get
professional liability insurance?
You would get it
because you thought
you were being sued
for something you did
that was either illegal or outside the scope of your duties.
Why were they worried about it on January 10th of 2017 when news broke about Jim Comey's
Oval Office meeting with Donald Trump? Oh, this is now, now, now. Some of you regular listeners who know this story inside out, you're already on to me here.
Some of you, it's okay.
There's a lot going on.
May need a little primer again.
So just to be clear, in early January, right around the 5th, 6th timeline, a lot of things happened.
And in that timeline, Jim Comey meets with President Trump and briefs him
about the PP stuff in the dossier. That briefing leaks to the media.
The leak to the media about the briefing is an excuse for the media to report on the PP dossier,
which many in the media knew was probably a hoax, but wanted to report on it anyway
because it would make Trump look bad.
So you don't want to report on a hoax.
So what did they do?
You following me here?
They reported on the briefing about the peepee hoax
and then put the peepee hoax in the story.
Does that make sense?
They needed a pretext, the media,
to report on what they knew
were fake allegations against Trump.
So their story was Comey briefs Trump about fake allegations.
By the way, here they are.
PP, all this other stuff.
Even more importantly, why would the FBI agents who were working on the dossier, the fake dossier, the Russian spy dossier we know now,
why were they so worried just a few days after this Comey-Trump meeting at the Oval Office?
Don't worry, I've got that for you here.
Here's the IG report about what happened at the Comey-Trump briefing.
And you're going to notice a name creeps up.
Let me just tell you before I read this, the national security person they're talking about
in this footnote here is Mike Flynn. Quote, the IG report. According to an email Comey sent
to FBI officials on January 7th of 2017, Comey mentioned during the initial portion of the
briefing we're talking about, a piece of Steele's reporting that indicated Russia had files of
derogatory information on both Clinton and the president-elect. Comey's email stated that a member of Trump's national security
team, Flynn, asked during the briefing whether the FBI quote was trying to dig into the subsources
to gain a better understanding of the situation. And Comey responded in the affirmative you tracking this Paul are you
tracking this you are good now I know we're on to something she hates rabbit holes it's after
the election Donald Trump's won it's not inaugurated yet it's still the transition
Comey realizes because he learned in December of 2016,
what? That the information they've been relying on to spy on Donald Trump was provided by
a potential Russian spy that the FBI had been investigating for being, quote,
a threat to national security. Comey's probably like, oh, we've got a problem.
Hillary's not going to be president. We've been colluding with a Russian spy to spy on Trump.
And I think they're on to us now.
How does Comey know they're on to them?
Because Mike Flynn, the national security team member mentioned in that footnote, starts
asking Comey questions at the briefing about, hey, hey, hey, have you dug into who those
sources are?
I'm sure Flynn in the back of his head is saying, you idiots were using a Russian spy to spy on the president.
Conveniently, the story leaks and the FBI agents involved right after that who were involved in spying on the president using a Russian spy who was a, quote, threat to national security now starts saying,
uh-oh, we better get liability insurance. Now, you may say to yourself, fair enough,
Dan, how did General Flynn in that Comey-Trump meeting in early January during the transition period, how did General Flynn know to start asking Comey about the sources they were using
to spy on Trump? Like, hey, do you think they could have been Russian spies themselves? How did Flynn know that?
One, because Flynn's the former head of the DIA, the Defense Intelligence Agency,
who's smarter than all these idiots who were investigating him.
But secondly, we have Sidney Powell, his lawyers filing, and I'll show you something that's kind
of interesting here. Again, this is from his
lawyer. She's not lying about it. As we can see here from Sidney Powell's memo, she says that a
letter was delivered by the British embassy to the incoming national security team, Mike Flynn,
after Donald Trump's election and to the outgoing national security advisor, Susan Rice.
The letter apparently disavows
former British Secret Service agent, Christopher Steele,
and calls his credibility into question
and declares him untrustworthy.
Gee, weird.
Weird how Flynn gets this memo from the UK saying,
hey, Christopher Steele,
Steele, the guy the FBI is using for information
in their fake dossier,
in their fake case against Trump.
Not only, by the way, is this guy's not trustworthy, but the FBI has probably been investigating this guy since 2016.
The subsource.
Someone in the FBI probably knows that, too.
So Flynn starts asking questions, of course, of Comey.
starts asking questions, of course, of Comey. Now, do you see why that January 10th, 2017 professional liability insurance text is so critical?
Because ladies and gentlemen, the FBI already knows this. They know they've been using a Russian
spy who's a, quote, threat to national security to spy on President Trump, pretending it's
Christopher Steele's information
the whole time.
Even the primary subsource in their own interview
disavows this stuff,
even though they've been investigating him before.
They know Flynn knows too,
and they know Flynn knows Steele's not credible.
That's the significance
of that professional liability text.
Flynn knew.
The FBI knows Flynn knows. Flynn knows Flynn knows. And everybody
knows they're getting sued or going to jail now. There's more in this Federalist piece. By the way,
there's pieces in the show notes along with the National Review, please. Please read them.
Bongino.com slash newsletters, how you access the show notes, the newsletter is the same thing.
Just subscribe. We'll email them to you every day. You got to read this. This story is amazing. Here's another one.
Screenshot two here from the Federalist piece. I want to hot tip a source for this too.
The new disclosures made by the DOJ also show that the FBI used so-called national security
letters to spy on Flynn's finances. Unlike traditional subpoenas, which require judicial review and approval before
authorities can seize an innocent person's property and information, national security
letters are never independently reviewed by courts. One of the agents noted in a text message
that the national security letters were just being used as a pretext by FBI leadership to buy time to find dirt on Flynn after the first investigation of
him yielded no derogatory information.
Ladies and gentlemen, I got a source on this that's confident that the use of national
security letters to spy on Flynn and his finances without judicial and court review there, that these national security letters are at the behest of one Barack Obama.
They thought the national security letters would be a backdoor way to investigate Barack Obama's noted political enemy,
Mike Flynn,
who hated his Iran deal.
That would be scandal number 6,422 in this case,
that the national security letters were Obama's idea.
I want to get to one more screenshot from the piece because it highlights a
point I've told you often,
having experienced in the investigative arena myself.
Ladies and gentlemen, when you're a police officer or a federal agent, the way cases start is a crime happens.
A credit card fraud, a robbery, God forbid, a murder.
That crime happens, then you investigate to find suspects.
You don't find a suspect and then go to try and find a crime later. Is everybody cool
with that? I mean, I don't mean, I'm not trying to talk down to the audience, but some of the
liberals watching who are really dumb have a hard time figuring this out. It's the whole, well,
if you have nothing to hide, I don't need to prove to you I have nothing to hide. There's no
allegation of a crime I'm involved in anywhere. I don't need to prove to you jack squat. Zero. You have no power over me at all. I'm a free man. Liberals,
of course, are police state goons and hate that. Their thing is we should continue to investigate
Trump until we find a crime. Because you're police state goons. That's what you've always been.
because you're police state goons.
That's what you've always been.
Showing you again the goons you are because you support this FBI open-ended investigation
of the Trump and Flynn,
despite no allegation of criminality ever emerging ever,
that was ever, ever, no evidence.
Here's the third screenshot from the Federalist piece
showing you exactly what this was.
This was a suspect, Donald Trump and Flynn, in search of a crime, not a crime in search of a suspect.
Totally backwards.
Here are some other texts after the January 5th Oval Office meeting between Comey and Obama.
They say, hey, what's the word on how Obama's briefing went?
When agent asked, referring to the January 5th meeting.
The other agent responds, quote, don't know, but people here are scrambling for info to support certain things.
And it's a madhouse. Gosh, sounds like a suspect in search of a crime, doesn't it?
Another agent writes back, Jesus, forgive me, Lord, don't mean to use your name in vain.
This is their text. Trump was right. Still not put together.
Why do we do this to ourselves?
What is wrong with these people?
It's the FBI talking to themselves.
Trump was right.
Why are we doing this to ourselves?
Why are we searching for information on Trump that's not there?
Because it was a witch hunt.
It was a goon squad the whole time who seems to have the idea of justice and blind justice
backwards.
Ladies and gentlemen, how would you feel if the FBI using the full force of government,
the IRS and elsewhere weaponize themselves with the CIA to find every little detail of
your life?
You think they'd find a crime?
Of course they would.
Oh, Dan, how dare you insult me? I'm not insulting you. Every person listening to this podcast,
I assure you, has broken some law somewhere. You jaywalk somewhere? Some of you are too young to
even know what jaywalking is. I guarantee you've done it. You rip a mattress tag off? You want
that kind of scrutiny in your life? Why do we not do that? Because no one cares about you ripping a mattress tag off.
No one does.
Nobody.
That's why no one has gone to a police department to file a police report about you ripping your mattress tag off.
That's why no one's investigating you, because nobody cares.
But somebody cared here.
They cared about Trump and Flynn and Trump and Flynn only. It said nothing to do with crime. They said everything
to do with them. How damning of a text do you need to realize you're sitting on the biggest
political scandal in American history that an FBI agent investigating them saying, quote,
Trump was right. Why are we doing this to ourselves?
And yet you'll hear nothing.
Nothing.
All right, ladies and gentlemen, I wanted to get to the Project Veritas stuff today.
I'll get to that tomorrow.
It's more just bombshells.
It's just Monday and we're loaded up.
I also get to that Joe Rogan story tomorrow too.
And I got some video tomorrow.
You know what?
Can we just end with the NYPD video?
How about that? Let's do that. Let's not wait. We all needed a hero today. I need some
good news. These are the heroes we all needed. Hat tip to the, it's his video, the TikTok guy.
I don't know if he's the guy who filmed it or not, but whatever. Whoever is the guy confronting
these two police officers. Yes, you're a clown, but these two police officers are the heroes we all needed today.
This is some clown confronting
two hardworking New York City police officers,
asking them, keep in mind,
they're alone talking to themselves.
They're not even around anyone.
Why they're not wearing masks
and watch these two police officers
just dismantle this video.
If you want to see the video,
please go to my video show,
rumble.com slash Bongino.
Check this out.
This is great.
If I don't wear a mask, it's not worth it.
What?
Does the final call just mean it to you guys if I don't wear a mask?
I'm just curious.
Actually, it states that as long as you can maintain six feet distance,
you don't have to wear the mask.
If you want to step within six feet of me, I'll gladly put on the mask.
So would you like to do that?
I mean, I feel like you guys are living less than six feet
of each other.
You're the one that approached us, so would you
keep the distance?
But I'm six feet away, though.
OK, now we're six feet away, and I don't have to wear my mask.
I mean, you should probably go on an Australian Global
Plan.
You're the person that calls someone, you know what I mean?
Someone selling water bottles on the streets.
You're the person that calls, though.
That's what you are.
All right, carry it like middle version of Carrie.
So have a nice day. Really, sir? Yeah. Hold on, what's your name? Yeah, you know, I'm afraid I'll sell you. Yeah, have a that calls, though. That's what you are. All right, Karen? You're like middle version of Karen. So have a nice day.
Really, sir?
Hold on.
What's your name?
Yeah, you know, I'm ready to say it.
Have a nice day, man.
Thank you.
You too.
Take care, Karen.
Thank you for your service, sir.
Thank you for protecting us during a pandemic.
I love these two guys.
Does anyone know them?
Give them a medal.
Someone make a medal.
Make the Auntie Karen medal or something like that and just give it to these two police. Someone promote them to first grade detective tomorrow. If anyone in the
NYPD is listening, first grade detective tomorrow. First grade. Skip third grade, second grade. To
my friend Brian, who just retired, who got grade before them, just call someone. Do you have any
hooks? Get these guys first grade tomorrow. First grade tomorrow.
I love these two.
The heroes we all needed.
All right, folks.
