This is one of the most important shows we've done a long time because there's two weeks left to an election. And if you are an undecided voter out there or you've decided, I think I'm going to change your mind today. You may not like Donald Trump's tweets. You may not like the Queens bravado.

Starting point is 00:04:11 a crime family right now involved in some really, really significant stuff. And when I say significant, I mean really bad. So I'm going to walk you through what's going on and then I'm going to put the end of this, the penultimate part of the show i've got a little bit more at the end it's going to be how they knew all this
Starting point is 00:04:31 was going to come out all the stuff i'm about to tell you and they set up biden early on on a commission and other things to make sure when it did come out that biden could say hey this is russian disinformation and foreign interference everybody Everybody get it? Joe get it? Paula get it? Everybody nod. Here's what it is. Here's how bad it is, and here's how they set Biden up. Let's get to what it is first. So, this came out
Starting point is 00:04:55 last night, right after I got off the Sean Hannity show. Was ready to go to bed, and the news cycle is just relentless. Washington Examiner. I'm going to read this headline. It speaks for itself. The great Jerry Donlevy and Joe Simonson at the Washington Examiner.
Starting point is 00:05:10 Story will be in the show notes. Read it. Spread it around everywhere. To access our show notes, go to bungino.com slash newsletter. Exclusive allegations
Starting point is 00:05:22 Hunter Biden stored child pornography on laptop sent to fbi um again folks i'm gonna try to be someone journalism me and objective on this unlike other journalists who can't do that. There are allegations I haven't seen these photos. Rudy Giuliani, as you can see from the piece, is claiming that he's seen these photos. He has no reason to lie about it.
Starting point is 00:05:56 He's also brought these photos to the police department, which says to me as a former investigator that these photos are real. You don't file a police report about photos you don't have quote washington examiner allegations that hunter biden stored photos of child pornography on his laptop have been forwarded to the fbi for investigation the examiners learn in an interview in washington dc tuesday evening giuliani president trump's attorney said hunter biden engaged for years in potentially criminal sexual behavior while Biden family members knew about it and tried to stop him.
Starting point is 00:06:33 Ladies and gentlemen, I'm hearing things about the victim of this alleged child pornography case on Hunter Biden's laptop that are grotesque. I'm not putting out at this time because it'd be irresponsible and I can't confirm them, but they're disgusting. On a disgusting scale, child pornography is a 10. What I'm hearing, this is like a 10.56. I remember being an agent in my former line line of work we had a squad that did child pornography cases over computer crimes because we had we had jurisdiction over computer crimes in the secret service and nobody wanted to spend more than a few months there you look at that stuff it changes you forever and i don't mean in a good way
Starting point is 00:07:19 it is the most disgusting revol revolting. You know what? I don't even want to spend too much time. I really, I'm sorry. Again, remember what I'm setting up for you, folks. I can't tell you this enough. You have to follow the contour of today's show. This is what they're hiding. They all knew about this.
Starting point is 00:07:39 So now we know that Hunter Biden is alleged to have been storing child pornography on his laptop and family members knew about it. That's the key line of that Washington Examiner article. That's the takeaway. This was not hidden. People knew and chose to engage Democrat higher ups and the former vice president himself that it was his kid is irrelevant. vice president himself that it was his kid is irrelevant they chose to engage in business transactions with a guy alleged to have child pornography on his computer and the allegations that they all knew about it you may be saying there's no way this case can possibly get worse the biden crime family fiasco oh no it does early this morning john roberts fox news he does the
Starting point is 00:08:24 journalism stuff over there. He's not an opinion guy. But I put out a statement received from a Tony Bubulinski, who is a former Navy lieutenant who was a business partner of the Biden crime family at one point. This Lieutenant Tony put out a statement. We're moving on from the child pornography you may be that's not it no no no that's not it no no that's not that it gets worse the case continues to degenerate we're moving on from the child pornography component now to just massive international pay-for-play corruption let's see this statement this was on john roberts twitter feed this guy who was a business partner this tony bubalinski and the former navy, by the way, says, hey, the reference in the email is, in fact, a reference to Joe Biden, the big guy.
Starting point is 00:09:13 The other JB is Jim Biden, Joe's brother. Wow. A lot of Bidens involved in this operation, Joe. It goes on. Joe. It goes on. Hunter Biden called his dad the big guy and quote, my chairman and frequently referenced asking for him to sign off on advice on various deals they were discussing. This guy's a partner. He says, I've seen Biden, VP Biden saying he never talked to Hunter about his business. I've seen firsthand that that's not true because it wasn't just Hunter's business. They said they were putting the Biden family name and its legacy on the line.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Ladies and gentlemen, this statement gets worse. Keep this up. I saw you going for that. Keep that trigger finger there. I realized the Chinese were not really focused on a healthy financial ROI return on investment. They were looking at this as a political or influence investment. Oh, really? This is, again, the statement from Bubulinski. Once I realized that Hunter wanted to use the company as his personal piggy bank by just taking money out of it as soon as it came from the Chinese, I took steps to prevent that from happening the ron johnson the senator the u.s senator from wisconsin who's all over this i got video him later the johnson report connected some dots in a way that shocked me come back to me this is another part of this so just to be crystal clear
Starting point is 00:10:41 after they found rudy gi Giuliani claims they found child pornography on Hunter's computer, one of Hunter's, and the family knew about it, one of Hunter's business partners now came forward and said, not only was Joe Biden actively involved in these what appear to be pay for play schemes, not only was Joe Biden involved, that they put their family name on it and that Biden was actively involved and that the Chinese knew Biden was actively involved and didn't consider this a return on investment. They considered a political influence operation. Hello, McFly. Hello.
Starting point is 00:11:23 Hello. Media people. Do we need a bullhorn? My Hello. Hello, media people. Do we need a bullhorn? Hello, media people. Anyone? Anyone? ABC, George Snuffleupagus, Brian Costanza, Stelter, Andrea Mitchell, anyone? A Navy lieutenant who was a business partner is saying that the former vice president now running for president could have been involved in a Chinese influence operation and had a seat at the table. What the hell is going on? Where is this? Where is this story? What are you missing? I haven't even got to the cover-up yet what else do you need this is not an anonymous source this is a decorated navy lieutenant
Starting point is 00:12:17 who shockingly partnered up with these guys, realized there was a problem. They were using China as a quote piggy bank. The Chinese knew it was a political influence operation and that the former vice president had a seat at the damn table. Where are you guys in the media? You are now complicit in the biggest scandal in modern American history. I would argue even bigger than Spygate. scandal in modern American history, I would argue even bigger than Spygate. A nuclear-powered enemy of the United States could have bought off the vice president?
Starting point is 00:12:58 Where the hell are you? There's a second part to Lieutenant Bobulinski's statement. Forgive me if I'm saying his name wrong. You know I'm terrible with names. But a name like Bongino, or everybody called Bongino, Bongino, whatever, you got to give me a pass on it. It's not intentional. Here's part two of the statement. He said he'd asked the Biden family to address the American people and outline the facts
Starting point is 00:13:15 so I can go back to being irrelevant. This is the lieutenant's statement. And so I'm not put in a position to have to answer those questions for them. Sounds like he's willing to go under oath, folks, doesn't it? He says, I don't have a political axe to grind. I just saw behind the Biden curtain
Starting point is 00:13:30 and I grew concerned with what I saw. The Biden family aggressively leveraged the Biden family name to make millions of dollars from foreign entities, even though some were from communist-controlled China. God bless America, he ends his statement. I can't believe this. I sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, cannot believe what is going on,
Starting point is 00:13:53 that we are days from an election. We're not days. The election's happening right now. We're not days from it. I already voted. So did my wife. So did my mother-in-law. The election's over for us.
Starting point is 00:14:02 We're not days from anything. We're in an election right now, and we have a candidate in the Democrat side who could win, who is a clear and present danger to the United States, who could be a significant, the biggest national security risk
Starting point is 00:14:20 to ever walk in the White House because there are unquestionably at this point, mounds of bribery material the Chinese potentially have on him and possibly members of his family, according to statements on the record by non-anonymous sources.
Starting point is 00:14:35 They're not anonymous. They're putting your names to this and saying, I'll testify. I'll tell my story. Oh my gosh. I can't believe it. I can't my story. Oh my gosh. I can't believe it. I can't believe it. I cannot believe this is happening.
Starting point is 00:14:53 You are about to vote in an active national security threat to the United States. And a nuclear powered entity. The major, the biggest national security threat of our time since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Chinese Communist Party. According to this guy, was in business with the former vice president and his son, who's alleged to have child pornography on his computer, and who apparently know they were engaged. The Chinese were engaged in a political influence operation with them.
Starting point is 00:15:31 By the way, where was the FBI with this? By the way, I'm done covering for the FBI. To the agents who listened, thank you. I get a lot of your emails. I understand your position. I mean it. Folks, you don't get to see the back end of my show as much as I wish. I can't put out people's emails.
Starting point is 00:15:44 It would be inappropriate. They send me emails in confidence. I get emails from a lot of FBI agents, absolutely disgusted. That's why I don't use blanket stereotypes like the FBI is terrible. I'm not going to do it. You want to do it, go right ahead. I'm just telling you, I see the back end of my show. Having said that, the entire management of the FBI, if you're involved in this, has to be just completely terminated, fired, goodbye. They've got to go. The FBI cannot be trusted anymore. Where is the FBI on this? Where? The FBI had this computer. You might have known about an active national security threat to the United States while you investigated a fake one. Donald Trump, who was an alleged Russian traitor
Starting point is 00:16:23 based on a pee-pee hoax you knew was a hoax? You wasted four years investigating a peepee hoax while this was going on? You let the president be impeached for asking questions about this in Ukraine? Now you see why the president might have been curious? Oh, that'll make sense later. How they were just waiting to strike the minute the president started asking questions about an active national security threat, the former vice president of the United States selling us out overseas in here.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Now you'll see why they were so paranoid and how to impeach him. Where was the FBI during the impeachment? Where were you guys? Where were you? You took an oath. I took the same oath. The difference is I honored mine again thank you to the agents who've reached out you know who you are and to my whistleblower agent that's how i
Starting point is 00:17:13 got this spygate stuff and wrote about hunter biden in ukraine in my first book on this topic four years ago but to the others who did nothing you've disgraced yourself and the badge. You should resign or be fired immediately. You've disgraced the country, the badge, and everything else. Christopher Wray is an embarrassment, a disgrace of epic proportions, the current FBI director. You knew about this and you let the president be impeached anyway. Fool. You are a fool and an embarrassment
Starting point is 00:17:46 and a shame and a stain on this country. I mean, every single word of that. Probably investigate me next. That's what you're all about, you big fraud. Phony, fake, embarrassment. All right, let me get to my second sponsor. I got more on this, ladies and gentlemen. And believe me, part two of this is,
Starting point is 00:18:11 no way this can get worse. Part two is, no way this can get worse, sir. Yes, worse makes its return, because it is worse than worse. Man, is child porn Chinese buying off the vice president? Oh, yeah, he's child porn, Chinese buying off the vice president. It's good. Oh yeah.

So again, you're probably thinking, gosh, we've now got allegations of child pornography. I have an angle to that that makes this thing even more disgusting, if it's even possible on that front.
Starting point is 00:20:42 We have another allegation of a chinese a known chinese influence operation to buy off uh the vice president united states and members of his family with an on the record source talking about it hmm how can it possibly get any worse is this a money laundering operation too this is like the three musketeers of scandals how can this possibly be the three for brooke singman fox news last night a story in the show notes spread this everywhere everywhere parlor facebook twitter everywhere gary oldman style from that movie what was the movie everyone spread it everywhere fox news laptop connected connected to Hunter Biden linked to FBI money laundering probe. We're going to vote for this guy for president.
Starting point is 00:21:37 Holy Moses, are you a moron? I'm really sorry. Don't call your audience a moron. I'm not. I'm calling the morons who are going to vote for Joe Biden morons because that's exactly what you are. Now, folks, disclosure here. I did get this information a couple of days ago from an FBI agent
Starting point is 00:21:56 interested in doing the right thing. That's why I brought that up in the beginning of the show. And I said, had the FBI not disclosed this information during the impeachment trial? Biden, Ukraine, money laundering, pay for play, like exactly what Trump was concerned about that he was impeached over. There are a lot of people. That's why I'm not going to sit here and bash the FBI. There are a lot of good people out there who have emailed me and other whistleblowers and said, I've had enough. I know what's happening. Deny it all you want. So I'm not going to stereotype an
Starting point is 00:22:21 entire agency. However, clearly the agency's in a lot of trouble and needs absolute reform. But I did get this a few days ago from a guy. I was just a little bit reluctant to put it out. Listen, I get it. Some of you may say, why not? Because ladies and gentlemen, I was focused on the child pornography thing, but the money laundering angle, I mentioned it last night on Hannity, has now been broken by Fox News too. Now, how do we know this, that the Biden laptop may be connected to money laundering? Well, we know it from the FBI themselves. How? Well, let's go to, this is the information I got the other day too, so I'm guessing this person may have emailed Fox too. The receipt given to the computer store,
Starting point is 00:23:03 which had Hunter Biden's computer from the FBI. Folks, when you're a federal agent, you take property, you have to give someone a receipt. You can't just like take drug money or take a computer and pocket it. You have to give them a receipt so the person knows and can follow up with it. The document given to the computer store owner has a case ID section, which is filled in with a handwritten number. That number is 272D-BA-30665729. According to multiple officials, including the one that reached out to me and the FBI's website, 272, which is the first three numbers in the case number, is the FBI's classification for money laundering. 272D refers to unknown, specific, unlawful activity,
Starting point is 00:23:54 white-collar crime program, according to FBI documents. One government official describes the D designation as transnational or blanket. The BA indicates the case was opened in the FBI's Baltimore field office, sources said. Now, I have some little experience in this space as a former federal agent myself. And as I explained to my wife last night, the fact that the FBI had a case number after they took this computer is significant enough in and of itself. Why is that? Because, ladies and gentlemen, the golden rule in the Secret Service was you don't open up a case unless you think you're going to make an arrest or engage in a serious investigation. Why?
Starting point is 00:24:34 Why would the FBI, why would the fact that there's a case number at all for a money laundering investigation, why would that, this is the kind of stuff you're not going to get elsewhere. Why is that significant? Producer Joe, Ombudsman, Paula, need your Ombudsman hats on because this may make sense to me but i'm hoping to make sense to the audience so filter me here when we were uh when i was an agent let's say you went out you were investigating a counterfeit pass or whatever it may be um if you didn't think that case was going to result in an investigation, it was very rare to open up a case and get a case number. Why? For simple administrative reasons, because then you would
Starting point is 00:25:09 have to, we would call tickle the case. I mean, tickle it like tickle it. Tickle it was a secret service terminology for you'd have to update the status of the case every three months, write a report on it, which is a real pain in the caboose. So if someone came in with a tip about a case and you didn't think it was going to go anywhere or the person was fudging it and making it up and it wasn't true, you may look into it, but you weren't going to open a formal case because you don't want to write reports on it for the rest of your life if you're not going to be able to close the damn case out and arrest someone. Everybody got it?
Starting point is 00:25:44 Head nod from Paula. I hear an audio confirmation from Joe. You don't open up a case, you're not going to close. Get it? Close it by arrest. It's a pain in the butt. The fact that the FBI opened up a case on this says to me, uh-oh, something on that computer was very serious.
Starting point is 00:26:02 International money laundering. Ouch. What could that be? Well, if you're a regular listener to this show, like my wife is, who's been listening to this show as long as it's been on, she said to me, gee, Dan, didn't you and Armacost talk about this like three years ago when I'm about to? Yeah, we did. Some of you older listeners may already know this story. What story?
Starting point is 00:26:27 The money laundering story the FBI apparently knows now. But what is the money laundering story? Get to it, buddy. Okay, let's get right to it. Tons of articles on this. I tried to pick the best one. It's an older one, but it's worth your time. Again, it's from the great John Solomon at his news site, Just the News.
Starting point is 00:26:44 It's an older one. This is from February of 2020, earlier in the year. But the story will be in the show notes today. I strongly suggest you read it. Bongino.com slash newsletter. Newsletter is the show notes. Latvia. Latvia.
Starting point is 00:26:57 What is this case? Latvia flagged suspicious Hunter Biden payments back in 2016. Ukrainian authorities alerted to concerns about joe biden's son just a month before vice president biden forced the firing of a prosecutor investigating the natural gas company paying hunter biden that's the whoa guy emoji yeah i don't have his round that might get like a cement blockhead, not a round, but if my face was, well, I had the, you know, the round features of the, uh, whoa guy emoji, it would work better. Maybe Drew can slap a whoa guy emoji right over me there for the video production. That would be wonderful. So we now know they took the computer. We know the FBI had opened up a case, which is
Starting point is 00:27:42 significant in and of itself. As I just told you, when they opened up a case, which is significant in and of itself, as I just told you. When they opened up the case, they didn't designate it a child pornography case. They designated it a money laundering transnational case out of the Baltimore field office. We know John Solomon, back in February of 2020, was trying to push out to the media as he was doing actual journalism, Ming,
Starting point is 00:28:03 and the media was ignoring it, that, hey, there have been long allegations since 2016 about Hunter Biden receiving transnational payments. Oh, transnational money laundering, kind of like the FBI opened up. So there have been allegations that Hunter Biden's received transnational suspicious money payments as far back as 2016. Why didn't the FBI tell us about this again during the impeachment? Now, what's really weird about this is in March of 2016, when Joe Biden is on tape, I'm not playing it again.
Starting point is 00:28:37 You've seen it a thousand times. Joe Biden on tape at the Council of Foreign Relations. He talks about his March 2016 demand, March 2016, follow me, demand that the prosecutor looking into his son's company in these suspicious payments, Victor Shokin, the prosecutor be fired. That happened in March of 2016. Don't you think it's weird that in February of 2016, Joe, again again is he on buzzword february is before march correct yeah just a little bit yeah the verdict is in joe's a genius february is before march confirmed by joe and paula so right before joe biden demands the prosecutor looking into
Starting point is 00:29:20 these payments and all this stuff in ukraine the prosecutor in Ukraine, get fired right before that, January, February, March, the month before, the Latvian government reaches out to Ukraine and says, hey, there's a lot of these really suspicious payments we think may involve Hunter Biden's bank account and Burisma. And then, wow, a month later, the prosecutor looking into all this stuff and you get fired on the demand of Joe Biden, who's Hunter Biden's dad,
Starting point is 00:29:49 who works for the company the prosecutor's looking into while the Latvians are looking into it too. That's just all a big coinkydink, I'm sure. Let's go to the John Solomon piece and see what these flag payments were. Quote, John Solomon, February 2020. As the U.S. presidential race began roaring to life in 2016, authorities in the former Soviet
Starting point is 00:30:12 Republic of Latvia flagged a series of suspicious financial transactions to Hunter Biden and other colleagues at a Ukrainian natural gas company and sought Kiev's help investigating, according to documents and interviews. The February 18, 2016 alert to Ukraine came from the Latvian prosecutorial agency responsible for investigating money laundering. What are the chances, man? And it specifically questioned whether Vice President Biden's younger son and three other officials at Burisma Holdings were the potential beneficiaries of suspect funds. Dan, this story sounds familiar. I listen to your show every day. Of course it does. We covered it when it happened.
Starting point is 00:31:03 No one else in the media did. But now that there's an FBI open case, 272D-BA, now all of a sudden it's a big, big story. Weird how that happens. How it kind of just flew under the radar the whole time. Didn't fly under the radar. The media tried to bury it under the radar and destroy the radar system.
Starting point is 00:31:24 Now they can't because Rudy Giuliani's got a big microphone. And was able to get this out there. So just again, to simplify this, we have allegations of kiddie porn. Biden family knowing about kiddie porn. We now have a confirmation Joe Biden is the big guy in an email involving payments from the Chinese government where the Chinese government acknowledges
Starting point is 00:31:55 or acknowledged to this guy that they were involved in an influence operation. In other words, pay to play with the former vice president. We now know the FBI opened a money laundering investigation after they got hunter's computer we now know or we knew while back then that the latvian government was investigating potential money laundering as well involving payments to barisma and hunter biden that are not in the thousands folks payments that are in the millions oh you know believe me let's go back to the john
Starting point is 00:32:25 solomon piece because we always produce the evidence the latvian law enforcement memo to ukraine identified a series of loan payments totaling about 16.6 million don't forget that 0.6 that were routed from companies in belize and the united kingdom to burisma sounds kind of like money laundering bouncing it from country to country. And they were routed through Ukraine's Privat Bank through 2012 and 2015. Privat Bank sounds like the bank I've been talking about on my show for the last three years. Odd, isn't it? The flag funds were, quote, partially transferred, Joe, to Hunter Biden, a board member at Burisma since May of 2014, and three other officials working for the ukrainian natural gas company
Starting point is 00:33:05 the latvian memo said um so the latvians were aware of suspicious payments totaling 16.6 million people why were they routed through three different countries there's actually another country involved too cyprus and others why were these payments routed through multiple countries to finally make it back and quote be partially transferred to hunter biden why would you why would you do that confuse a cat maybe to kind of wipe your footprints clean on where the money came from is that you think you think joe can it make sense yeah yeah footprints money wipe those footprints clean route it through multiple and that way you don't know where it came from interesting that when the lotfians say hey we got these payments to hunter biden and burisma that seem awfully suspicious they send a letter to ukraine in
Starting point is 00:34:01 february of 2016 hey uh there's something going on with these payments here. Millions to Hunter Biden. All of a sudden, a month later, Joe Biden shows up in March of 2016 and demands the prosecutor in Ukraine to get the letter be fired. Don't worry, Jessica Tarloff and Marie Harf, liberal talking heads who I've heard talk about this, but nothing to see here at all. Nothing to see. There's no evidence at all of any wrong.
Starting point is 00:34:24 None. Maybe you need to redefine for yourself what the word evidence means. Okay, let me get to my next sponsor, because you may be saying, gosh, this thing gets worse. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it does. I'm saying that, yeah. Yeah, it does. I'm saying that, yeah. Worse, worser, worse-iest. We're just making up words today to define how bad this gets.
Starting point is 00:34:50 It does get worse. All right, today's show also brought to you by a great company. I use these. Raycon. Ladies and gentlemen, you know the best way to listen? Use a pair of premium wireless earbuds.

Starting point is 00:36:37 now to worse-iest. People knew this, folks. I'm not going to repeat what we had again. You've already heard it. Money laundering, kiddie porn. You get it. I just repeated it and said I wouldn't, but people knew about this. People have known for a long time about this, me, John Solomon, Democrat insiders, and others, and they had to give Biden a way to cover this all up because they had a couple motives. Number one, they wanted to cover up for Obama because Biden
Starting point is 00:37:04 was his vice president, and they don't want Obama's legacy to be one that it is, scandal. But the second reason is they were all afraid Biden would run for president. It's why Biden tried to talk them out of it. And they knew this would come out, so they had to have a story. And the story to cover up the kiddie porn,
Starting point is 00:37:18 the money laundering, the Chinese influence operation, and the pay-to-play stuff, which I said I wouldn't repeat and just did, the way to cover it up was going to be to blame it on. It's all a foreign disinformation campaign. Trump played into it. He should be impeached.
Starting point is 00:37:31 I'm going to get to that part in a second. But just one more note. Great story by John Solomon today. Just the news will be in the show notes. Where is Biden's money exactly? Because there seems to be a whole lot of it missing. Justthenews.com by Daniel Payne on John Solomon's site here. Joe Biden scored $16 million in income.
Starting point is 00:37:52 What a life after leaving the White House. But where did it go? What do you mean, where did it go? Well, Joe Biden has to do financial filings for office. And so they had an accountant take a look. Check this out from the Solomon piece. There's about 6 million in assets that appear to be missing. This guy Miller said that he estimated based on his review of Biden's income
Starting point is 00:38:18 and his itemized deductions in state and federal income taxes, that the Biden should have listed around $9 million on their assets in their most recent disclosure form. Quote, I am unable to document what he did with the difference of approximately $6 million, he said. What else are we missing? I don't know. What else are we missing?
Starting point is 00:38:41 I don't know. What else are we missing? Did we check the bank accounts of the rest of Biden's family? Oh, remember the email? We're holding 10% for the big guy? Who else is holding money for the big guy? By the way, if Trump doesn't call Biden the big guy tonight in the debate, it'll be an act of political malpractice I haven't seen in human history.
Starting point is 00:39:13 That's how we should introduce, hey, big guy, how's it going? First thing out of his mouth. I was just hearing that myself. Big guy. Nice. Welcome to the debate stage. Now, we talked about the crime. I'm going to get to the cover-up, but I just want to leave you with three final points on the crime,
Starting point is 00:39:24 the Biden crime family. I heard Marie Harf say on Fox, not personal, but she said it's Fox, and I work there too. But she said yesterday on Fox, she made the point that, well, if Biden was getting all this money, why didn't we see it on his tax returns?
Starting point is 00:39:41 What? What? What? What? sorry dude yeah i mean this is one of those rare times we didn't choose joe again on video this is really embarrassing tax tax returns marie please please please stop while you're ahead where you think you. You think criminal enterprises file on their tax returns, their nefarious gains from their criminal enterprise? Line item 62B, international money laundering proceeds.
Starting point is 00:40:20 What's the tax rate? Is that a capital gain? What is it? Is that long-term? Is that, is that, is that, Is there a real estate deduction for that? If you bought property with your ill-gotten gain, that's on your tax return. Folks, here are my notes.
Starting point is 00:40:34 I'll say that. Tax returns. The only note I have next to it is LOL. I don't know what else to say. You're looking for potential ill-gotten gains on a tax return? And you said that on television that's funny that's a good one
Starting point is 00:40:52 ladies and gentlemen i investigated i'm not kidding over my career in the mypd and as a federal agent probably 50 to 100 complicated financial cases where I was either the lead agent or part of one. I never once, I'm not kidding, never once. Now, maybe one case we got someone's tax returns. Only why? Because they don't mean anything. Most criminals don't even file tax returns.
Starting point is 00:41:22 And believe me, when they do, they don't put drug money, line 62, capital gain from cocaine sales. What the? They said this on television. Well, we don't see it on his tax return. Oh, okay. In that case. Secondly, I'm going to start doing like a mailbag segment once a week because i get so many great
Starting point is 00:41:49 listener and viewer emails a guy sent to me this morning an email it was hilarious he said dan the biden should just sell the country out fair and square like the clintons right great point set up the clinton foundation and just sell the country out that way. Why do you got to do it behind the scenes? That's a great point. You're going to sell America out. Just be like the Clintons and do it out in the open with the Clinton Foundation. Where's the Kenny Bell?
Starting point is 00:42:15 Kenny Bell. Nice job. That was the greatest email ever. It's the only time ever I thought gosh if i just had a segment for a mailbag this would be the only email that just sell them out in the open like the clinton's did clinton foundation where you donors to the clinton foundation get involved in a russian technology project skolkovo that steals our technology to build hypersonic missiles to kill us. Clinton's the tip of the totem pole of selling out transparency.
Starting point is 00:43:01 My gosh, I can't believe we're having these conversations. Finally, the reason the media and Republican insiders and the political consultant class who are really losers, the reason they're telling president Trump, don't talk about Hunter Biden tonight is precisely because it's the most damaging narrative of this election cycle. Nobody likes a pay for play scheme and everybody knows what it is. And people who hate Donald Trump don't want him to talk about it because they know they know what they know that biden's running on one thing and one thing only a quote return to normalcy right joe that's been his thing donald trump abhorrent behavior
Starting point is 00:43:42 the country's get the country's not chaotic. The economy was doing great. Outside of Donald Trump's tweets and his different style, I think we can all agree on that. The country ran great. Even now, in the middle of a pandemic, 54% of Americans
Starting point is 00:43:56 think they're better off now than they were four years ago after Obama and we're in a pandemic. Forget the style. The substance of Donald Trump's presidency has been normalcy. The substance of Donald Trump's presidency has been normalcy.
Starting point is 00:44:07 The style, yeah, not so much. Middle East peace deals, regulatory reform, business is growing. There's been nothing abnormal about Donald Trump's presidency outside of the style, which I grant you.
Starting point is 00:44:21 But if Joe Biden's final pitch is going to be, get rid of this crazy psycho and let's return to normal, normal, kiddie porn investigations, money laundering, international pay for play, uh, kind of ruins his pitch, no? bitch, no? Yeah, I think so. That's why the anti-Trump cabal does not want Trump to talk about that because it decimates Biden. Everybody understands pay for play and everybody understands that this is not a return to normal. This isn't normal for anyone but scammers. All right, you know what? Let me get to my final sponsor. And now I want to get into the cover-up,
Starting point is 00:45:07 the most important part of the show. I said it was penultimate, but given the time, it's maybe the last story we get to. But this is important. It's the most important takeaway. But I had to set up the crime before I set up the cover-up.
Starting point is 00:45:18 All right, today's show brought to you by our friends at BowlinBranch.com. What do millions of Americans and three former U.S. presidents have in common?

Starting point is 00:46:39 So now let's talk about the coverup. And by the coverup, I mean what I just laid out to you, Democrat insiders, some people in the media, and we knew about because we've been exposing it for years they knew it was going to come out and there were two motives to hiding it well i mean the obvious motive is disgusting the story's gross kiddie porn money laundering pay for but we get all that right but there were two big motives outside of the disgusting nature of it number one they never wanted the obama administration to associated with scandal. They want scandals forever to be associated with Republicans. Therefore, they always talk about Nixon, Nixon, Nixon. That's what the Democrats
Starting point is 00:47:12 in the media like to do, to tarnish the image of the Republican Party. The most scandal-laden administration in U.S. history right now is the Obama administration. People in the media knew it. Obama, Biden, Spygate, Bidengate, they knew this. So they had to make this go away. The way to make it go away is prevent it from being discovered. So second motives to attack Donald Trump with it. Flip the script. Attack Donald Trump the minute he started looking into it. Give Biden an out in a story so that no one ever saw this. Cover up for Biden. Attack Trump. So here's the cover-up. First, I want to
Starting point is 00:47:47 get to this quick video. This is Senator Ron Johnson, who's been looking into this for a long time, great Republican Senator from Wisconsin. He gave a pretty fiery speech yesterday. This is about a minute of it, where he just nails the media to the wall for not looking into this at all. They're part of the cover-up too. The media knows this story, folks. Make no mistakes. I'm going to show you in a minute how the media knew this story as far back as April of 2014. And they're avoiding it. Here's Ron Johnson nailing them to the wall on this and asking, hey, why did Joe Biden meet with Hunter Biden's business partner, Devin Archer, right before he went to Ukraine
Starting point is 00:48:20 in April of 2014? Check this out. I'm calling on the media. At what point in time are you going to actually take up a very important news story? When are you going to start asking a question, for example, of Vice President Biden? You know, we now know that Devin Archer is a convicted felon. That fraud against the tribe was perpetrated during 2014, the exact same time frame when they were setting up the conflict of interest in Ukraine. Vice President Biden met with Devin Archer in the White House. That's kind of a big deal, don't you think?
Starting point is 00:48:51 A meeting in the White House with the Vice President. He met with Devin Archer five days before he made a trip to Ukraine, at which point he was dubbed the public face of the Obama administration in Ukraine. We also know a day after Devin Archer was appointed to the board of Burisma. A few weeks later, apparently Hunter Biden was appointed to the board. Now we're getting indication that maybe Hunter was actually on the board on April 13th. So here's the question you ought to be asking the vice president among a hundred others. Mr. Vice president, why did you meet with Devin Hunter five days before he traveled to Ukraine? What did you talk about? What was discussed? What was the purpose of the meeting and who else was at the meeting?
Starting point is 00:49:29 Now, I'll explain this to you in a second. Let me try. I'll translate that. But before I get that, I want to play Biden, Joe Biden. This is yesterday with a local interviewer. The local media, by the way, the only ones doing their homework on this. Congrats to local media around the country who are being real journalists. A local media journalist who asks Biden about this and Ron Johnson, who's all over, but he knows everything. Ron Johnson, the guy you just heard. Watch Biden absolutely freak out. Check this out. Wisconsin's Republican Senator Ron Johnson put out a statement on Homeland Security letterhead saying Hunter Biden, together with other Biden family members, profited off the Biden name. Is there any legitimacy to Senator Johnson's claims?
Starting point is 00:50:12 None whatsoever. This is the same garbage Rudy Giuliani, Trump's henchman. It's the last ditch effort in this desperate campaign to smear me and my family. last-ditch effort in this desperate campaign to smear me and my family. Even the man who served with him on that committee, a former nominee for the Republican Party, said there's no basis to this. And the vast majority of the intelligence people have come out and said there's no basis at all. Ron should be ashamed of himself. He knows what Ron Johnson knows. And what does Ron Johnson know? That key figures in Ukraine paid a lot of money to Biden family members to make their own corruption go
Starting point is 00:50:52 away. These Ukrainian business people. Let me just describe to you in a quick nutshell what the scandal in Ukraine was, because it still confuses people and it shouldn't. There was a minister in a Ukrainian government that was alleged to have corruptly obtained millions of dollars in natural gas leases. Okay. Natural gas leases worth millions of dollars. He was a minister in the government at one point. When the government changed to a new government and started looking into this former minister from the prior government for those gas leases, and started looking into this former minister from the prior government for those gas leases. Hey, how did you get those?
Starting point is 00:51:34 These same people involved with the gas leases hired Biden's kid to make that investigation go away. Joe Biden then travels to Ukraine right after that in April 2014. As the government changes, immediately after that, his son gets appointed to the board of the natural gas company involved in this investigation, and so does his partner, Devin Archer, who Biden meets with before he goes over to Ukraine. Everybody tracking me there? It's a simple scandal.
Starting point is 00:51:58 The prior government that this minister was a part of was accused of basically stealing the rights to these natural gas companies, these natural gas leases. When the new government came in, they said, hey, we're investigating that. Biden immediately runs over to put that fire out and gets his son and their business partner, Devin Archer, appointed to the board of the company that's being investigated. And then two years later, as the prosecutor closes in on the investigation, two years later in 2016 the prosecutor gets fired pursuant to biden's demand he get fired you may say well my gosh
Starting point is 00:52:32 that sounds really ugly here's how they were going to cover it up washington post knew about this all the way back in april 2014 when it happened they covered this that was this was kind of weird biden arrives in ukraine to show uS. support as crisis with Russia continues. Washington Post later went on and reported about this weird thing that Burisma, they let it go completely once they realized Biden was going to run for president. Other people knew about this too.
Starting point is 00:53:00 Here's Time Magazine, bastion of right-wing values. I'm kidding, of course. Time Magazine, about as left as it gets. Here's Time Magazine, bastion of right-wing values. I'm kidding, of course. Time Magazine, about as left as it gets. Here's Time Magazine talking about how not only was Biden involved in making this investigation into that Ukrainian minister with Burisma go away, but others in the DC swamp, key Democrats who were involved too,
Starting point is 00:53:24 how they were involved too time magazine by michael scherer sorry my eyesight's going ukrainian employer of joe biden's son hires a dc lobbyist wait wait ukrainian employer of biden's son so the company that hired joe biden's kid to make this investigation go away hired another dc DC lobbyist. Who was that? Wow. It was David Leiter, former Senate chief of staff to secretary of state, John Kerry,
Starting point is 00:53:54 former Democrat nominee for president. Whoa. Who signed to work as a lobbyist for Burisma too. On May 20th of 2014. That's weird, Joe, right after Joe Biden left Ukraine in April of 2014. That's weird, Joe, right after Joe Biden left Ukraine in April of 2014.
Starting point is 00:54:07 Weird. And it happened about a week after Biden announced he was joining the company, according to lobbying disclosures filed this month. Weird. So Time Magazine,
Starting point is 00:54:21 the Washington Post, and others knew Biden goes over to Ukraine. Oh. They want to stop an investigation Time Magazine, the Washington Post, and others knew. Biden goes over to Ukraine. They want to stop an investigation, this natural gas company, by the new government. The natural gas company, Burisma, hires Biden's kid and then hires John Kerry's former chief of staff right after Biden leaves. Don't worry, Marie Harf will tell you, there's no evidence here. Why? Huh? don't worry Marie Harf will tell you there's no evidence here why here's part two of that time article
Starting point is 00:54:52 nothing to see here liberal talking heads where they not only hired Devin Archer and this John Kerry Secretary of State chief of staff they also hired chris hines chris hines that name sounds familiar yeah yeah john kerry's stepson son of theresa hines the ketchup heiress who john kerry married
Starting point is 00:55:17 don't worry folks um you know there's nothing to see here do you have that second screenshot there don't edit this because this is like i don't want to this show is great sometimes we run into like a little technical snafu in the middle do not edit this show i don't want to lose any of my where i am in my head and sometimes if we have to chop stuff out and put it in the show but if you're wondering like why i'm delaying right now it's only because we can't find the second screenshot i know i put up but i want to this is keem you got it this is super important good phil thank you good phil don't edit that no time for edits lighter's involvement in the firm talking about burisma rounds out a power-packed team of politically connected Americans.
Starting point is 00:56:05 What the hell is a Ukrainian natural gas company hiring a bunch of, quote, politically connected Americans for? That also included a second board member, Devin Archer, a Democrat bundler and former advisor to John Kerry's presidential campaign. Both Archer and Hunter Biden have worked as business partners with Kerry's son-in-law, Christopher Hines, the founding partner of Rosemont Capital, a private equity company. So Hines, not on the Burisma board, but Hines is a partner, John Kerry's stepson, with Hunter Biden and also Devin Archer, John Kerry's former advisor, as they hire this guy lighter, John Kerry's former chief of staff. This company that's being investigated, that hires these people, this Ukrainian company hires these people after Biden goes to Ukraine.
Starting point is 00:56:52 And the investigation gets magically shut down two years later with Biden on tape demanding the prosecutor shut the investigation down. Biden on tape demanding the prosecutor be fired. I'm sorry, precision matters. You may say, okay, Dan, now you've pretty much shown us the media already knew about this. Where's the coverup? Well, they got worried when Joe Biden said he was going to run for president. Everybody got worried. They didn't think he was going to do it. When he did, they realized this was going to be found out and they needed to cover this up. So here's where the coverup starts. I want to show you this Wall Street Journal article about Burisma, the same natural gas company that hired Devin Archer, that hired Hunter Biden's kid, and hired John Kerry's
Starting point is 00:57:33 former chief of staff. This Wall Street Journal article talks about a really interesting partnership Burisma had. Wall Street Journal, Ukraine companies campaigned to burnish its image stretched beyond Hunter Biden. They're talking about Burisma. Who else did they partner up with Burisma? Burisma was spending a lot of money to make sure their association with Hunter Biden. This investigation went away. Ladies and gentlemen, they partnered up with the Atlantic Council.
Starting point is 00:58:04 Look at this Wall Street Journal. Wow. Burisma later became a sponsor of a Washington think tank, the Atlantic Council. Some of you bells are ringing right now. Whose experts are often cited on energy and security policy in the former Soviet Union. When President Trump was elected, the company brought a former CIA official from the George W. Bush administration onto its board. Kind of like shadow governments, no? The Atlantic Council, Brookings Institution, all these think tanks that people are using for information.
Starting point is 00:58:34 Brookings Institution, remember where the primary subsource for Christopher Steele came from? The Brookings Institution. The Atlantic Council advising government insiders. What are they advising them on? And why are they partnering up with Burisma? Did people at the Atlantic Council know what Hunter Biden was up to with Burisma? Were they influencing people in government to make this thing go away? Well, ladies and gentlemen, it describes a whole lot as to why the Atlantic Council and Burisma would be paying so much money to make this go away, to hide the Obama-Biden scandal and to hide all these scandals in the middle of a Biden presidential run, which I
Starting point is 00:59:09 don't think they anticipated. Now they're worried. So there were others, others that were involved in Burisma. And I'm wondering if this explains their actions. This is the question. Here's an interesting article by John Solomon, again, in Just the News. You know, Mitt Romney seemed to want to make all this impeachment stuff go away about Ukraine, Hunter Biden. Remember? It's all a distraction. Wow, that's strange. Mitt Romney says he hasn't been in touch with Burisma board member within the last year. He was in touch with a Burisma board member? Yeah, that's really strange. One of his old buddies, matter of fact, one of his key advisors during his presidential campaign was a board member of Burisma too. Strange, right?
Starting point is 00:59:49 Fair question. Why not allowed to ask questions? You're only allowed to ask questions about the pee-pee hoax, right? But you're not allowed to ask questions about why one of Romney's old advisors is on the board of Burisma too? And Romney's like, oh no, I haven't seen this guy in a year. But let's not look into Burisma and
Starting point is 01:00:04 Biden. No, no, that's all. Mittens, another paragon of virtue. Let's talk a little bit more about the cover up here. So this morning I put in a search engine. I wanted to find this old article in the Washington Examiner. There's a really big donor to the Clinton Foundation, a guy by the name of Viktor Pinchuk, that the Clinton Foundation and the Clintons tried to run away from.
Starting point is 01:00:30 He's Ukrainian too. Pinchuk was also a big donor to the Atlantic Council. Here, Washington Examiner. Emails show Clinton denied and met with Ukrainian donor. Emails made public Tuesday show a Ukrainian businessman and major Clinton Foundation donor, he donated $25 million, was invited to Hillary Clinton's home. They later tried to deny that. I'll tie this all together in a minute, I promise. Burisma, as I showed you in Wall Street Journal, partners up with the Atlantic Council. The Atlantic Council gets big money from Victor
Starting point is 01:01:01 Pinchuk, who's also a big Clinton Foundation donor. You following, Joe? Yes, I am, Daniel. Who else did the Atlantic Council, that's advising government figures on all this stuff, who else did the Atlantic Council partner up with? This is all in my book, Follow the Money. This part's documented extensively. The reviews have been terrific. Thank you. Let's look at the Atlantic Council's own press release.
Starting point is 01:01:26 This is crazy. Atlantic Council, they put out a press release about Ukraine's presidential election. They seem really interested in Atlantic Council and Ukraine. You know, where Biden's play for pay, play for pay, pay for pay, pay for pay, play for pay, where that happened. Why are they so interested in this? On their press release, check check this out look at this partnership this is just the doozy the atlanta council partners up with what pinchirk again what the
Starting point is 01:01:56 hell by exposing foreign interferences in a couple it's great keep in mind the atlanta council where all these swamp rats are, is already prepping the narrative to cover up for Biden here, folks. Quote, by exposing foreign interference as it occurs leading up to the runoff election, the Atlantic Council, the Victor Pinchuk Foundation, and the Transatlantic Commission on Election Integrity hopes to provide Ukrainians with the necessary tools to check outside efforts to influence their vote. So a bunch of former government insiders, swamp rats over at the Atlantic Council who are partnered up with Burisma, the company Joe Biden's family is working on to make an investigation go away. an investigation go away.
Starting point is 01:02:47 Those same people at Burisma partner up with the Atlantic Council, a major Clinton donor, and the Transatlantic Commission on Election Integrity that focuses on foreign interference in elections. Foreign interference, the same line they've been using against Trump to get him impeached as he started looking into this Biden thing. Remember? Joe Biden's overseas and excuse me, a hundred, excuse me, Donald Trump is calling the Ukrainian president, asking him to look into this. That's foreign interference in our election. Again, just like the Russia hoax.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Let's wrap this up with this CNN screenshot here, because who is on and who was appointed to the transatlantic commission on election integrity after he left office. Oh, Joe Biden. Oh, my gosh. How is that? CNN. Leaders from around the globe, including former Vice President Joe Biden, are banding together in an effort to thwart attempts at interfering in elections. That's a story about Joe Biden's appointment to the Transatlantic Commission on Election Integrity that partnered up with a major Clinton donor, that partnered up with the Atlantic Council, that partnered up with Burisma, the company that hired Joe Biden's kid to make an investigation into a pay-for-play scheme go away.
Starting point is 01:04:06 story here is Joe Biden's international scheming and his pay for play operations, his corrupt son, child pornography allegations, money laundering allegations, the big guy getting kickbacks on all of this. And in order to make that go away, all these swamp rats who all know each other, Biden's stepson, Devin Archer, Biden's former secretary, excuse me, John Kerry's stepson, John Kerry's former secretary, former chief of staff, John Kerry himself, who was involved in this, Hunter Biden, Joe, they all know each other. They all know these donors. Clinton knew who they were. They needed to make this all go away. they needed to make this all go away. They put Joe Biden on an election integrity board to monitor foreign interference. And that foreign interference is the narrative they use to try and make all the pay to play stuff go away.
Starting point is 01:04:53 And the minute Trump started asking about it in Ukraine, what he knew was going on, pay to play, what's the narrative they used to get him impeached? Trump is dealing with a foreign government to interfere in our elections and go after his rival, Joe Biden. The narrative had already been set up. You think it's a coincidence or an accident Joe Biden was put on a transatlantic commission on election integrity to investigate foreign interference? He was put there because foreign interference was the narrative they were
Starting point is 01:05:21 going to use to replace the truth. That was the coverup the whole time. And that's the coverup they used in the impeachment with the fake whistleblower whistleblower on the national security council, who was intimately involved with department of state people who knew about this Ukraine scandal. That makes sense. Joe, did that make sense?
Starting point is 01:05:44 Yeah. It's a lot though. did that make sense? Yeah. It's a lot, though. It's a lot. Yeah. I know it's a lot, folks. But now I'll just tell you what I told you. Everyone on the Democrat side of influence knew about Joe Biden's pay to play. They knew about the money laundering.
Starting point is 01:05:58 They knew about the money in Privat Bank. They knew about Hunter Biden's troubles. The drug use, the allegations of child pornography. They knew about Hunter Biden's troubles, the drug use, the allegations of child pornography. People knew about this. They were afraid Biden was going to run for president. If Biden did run for president, they knew this would all come out because I just showed you the media as far back as 2014 knew about it. They needed an alternative story, a lie to cover up the truth. The lie was going to be anytime Trump reaches out and tries to get to the bottom of this,
Starting point is 01:06:26 they'll blame Trump for collusion colluding with a foreign government. They put Biden in these select spots and all of these inside think tanks partnered up. This was their narrative from the start. That's how they were going to cover it up. Incredible. All right. It was a busy news day. We have the debate tonight.
