Starting point is 00:03:41 with comedy and satire but this one this one just deserves it the babylon b with comedy and satire. But this one, this one just deserves it. The Babylon B it is a satire site waiting for the fact checkers to fact check this, by the way, fact checkers, get ready, get ready. Start taking notes.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Babylon B FBI hires top rated Italian bodyguard. Hit Luigi Clinton Ellie to protect Ghislaine Maxwell. My lungs are still not recovering. Hello. Fact checkers. You may want to fact check that. Is that a real body? Hello.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Luigi Clintonelli. You may want to check her credentials. Was she, was she former DSS secret service? What was she? French foreign Legion. Was she a mercenary? You may want to check that out.
Starting point is 00:04:32 Hello, Luigi, Clinton, Ellie, Babylon B folks strikes again. Very rarely upon Gino report to rerun satire articles, but we ran that one today. Nice job,
Starting point is 00:04:42 Babylon B. Just thought I'd open up the show. A little comedy for you. Be careful. Hello, Luigi Clintnelli, when she's bodyguarding you, maybe in a world of trouble there. Nice job, B. All right, getting into the important stuff here. The Omicron panic porn campaign continues. And ladies and gentlemen, it is working. It's not working on you and I. We are now immune to the media coverage, which is ridiculous and stupid. It is never based in fact and science. But unfortunately, the left is, and this has very real consequences, and we should never forget that.
Starting point is 00:05:12 When you poll people on the left and you ask them basic questions like what's the case fatality rate, the infection rate, the hospitalization rate for coronavirus and the various variants, you'll notice that liberals typically get the question wrong and not only wrong, but they get it dramatically wrong. They overestimate by a long shot the danger from coronavirus. Those are the polls. Those are the facts. Why do liberals do that? Because they watch CNN, MSNBC. They listen to Lord Fauci, a lawn gnome, a dangerous lawn gnome. They listen to these people who engage in these panic porn campaigns. And what's the problem for that? You may say, Dan, I don't care if we're not falling for it. Why do we care if liberals think coronavirus is the deadliest thing since the hantavirus? Why do we care? Well, we should care because these are the people who are principals
Starting point is 00:06:01 of schools. They're on school boards. They're local elected leaders. A lot of these liberals, you can call them leaders. They're local elected officials. And they're the ones making your kids wear masks, using draconian lockdowns and things that don't work. This does matter. Thank God, however, for people like Governor Ron DeSantis from Florida. Thank the Lord we have some good people left in this country. Here's a quick video audio of Ron DeSantis yesterday. He's calling BS. This is what a real leader looks like. I want you to notice what he does here. He acknowledges a mistake he made early on.
Starting point is 00:06:34 There's nothing wrong with doing this. This is the right thing to do, and it's something Joe Biden is incapable of, or any liberal for that matter. DeSantis acknowledges early on Florida had some travel restrictions. He says, listen, it was a mistake. It didn't work. He also acknowledges in this clip that there were lockdowns as well. And the lockdowns didn't work either. Ladies and gentlemen, this is what being a leader looks like. I'm not kissing the guy's butt unnecessarily.
Starting point is 00:06:58 I love Ron DeSantis. I think he's the best governor in the country. I think this guy is presidential timber, no doubt. But this is what real leaders do. Acknowledge mistakes, acknowledge them publicly, and say, we're not going to repeat those again. Everyone, take a note. Here's Ron DeSantis leading from the front. Check this out. And let me just say, in Florida, we will not let them lock you down.
Starting point is 00:07:21 We will not let them take your jobs. We will not let them harm your businesses. We will not let them harm your businesses. We will not let them close your schools. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. The lockdowns didn't stop COVID. Force masking, they said last year, would end the pandemic if 80% wore masks. Many more than that were wearing masks, and it hasn't worked. They said you could get COVID off surfaces, which isn't true. They've not been honest about the origins of the virus, and they haven't been forthright about natural immunity.
Starting point is 00:07:58 And with these travel restrictions, I was probably the first governor in January of 2020 to call for travel restrictions from China. I supported President Trump when he did that. But we have to take a step back and acknowledge that those travel restrictions just didn't work. The virus had already spread. There it is, folks. That's what leadership looks like. Not being afraid to get out in front of the public and say, hey, early on, we didn't know a lot about the virus. We didn't know how infectious it was, the R-naught, the fatality rate, about fomites,
Starting point is 00:08:30 fomite surfaces, how it can spread on surfaces or fomites. We didn't know that. Now we know that. We're evolving. Maybe Fauci could learn a lesson from this and stop trying to sound so certain all the time and maybe apologize to the public instead of attacking people and claiming, I am the state. I am science.
Starting point is 00:08:50 This is what real leaders do. Now, it shouldn't be lost on you that while Ron DeSantis became public enemy number one of a hapless media, Florida, which now has one of the lowest hospitalization rates and death rates in the country right now. It shouldn't be lost on you that DeSantis was attacked relentlessly when we had our annual seasonal surge in Florida, which everybody's getting now, including Michigan and states up north. Shouldn't be lost on you that he became public enemy number one. And now that this is happening up north, all of a sudden, these Democrat governors, do they get the same ire of the media? Hell to the no, they don't.
Starting point is 00:09:29 Glenn Greenwald, who does actual journalism on his Twitter account. Talked about exactly this on the destructive, grotesque media and their contribution to a polluted media environment where liberals believe coronavirus is going to kill you tomorrow morning, leading to stupid things being done over and over again, like mandates and lockdowns. Here's Greenwald's tweet. He says the U.S. media framework framework has been fascinating to watch covid deaths prior to January 20th, 2021. What was the media narrative? Trump personally murdered them red state COVID deaths after January 20th 2021 the governor murdered them blue state COVID deaths
Starting point is 00:10:11 after January 20th 2021 unavoidable tragedy perfectly stated so when Trump was in office the media narrative was clear these destructive grotesque hacks that are staying on this country and are rotting cancer
Starting point is 00:10:28 to this country from the inside out because they cannot tell the truth. I will protect their right to be free always to the day I die. But they have the right to be stupid and they take you up on it at every single opportunity. Trump was in office. It was a media
Starting point is 00:10:44 narrative. Trump personally murdered all these people. He didn't take it seriously. Coronavirus. Yet now more people are dead in 2021. Their God, Joe Biden is in office. And what happens? Oh man, this thing's just out of control. It's defeating all these mechanisms. Joe Biden, what's he going to do? Red state governors elevated death rates during seasonal outbreaks. Oh my gosh, they personally killed them. Blue state governors, same thing. It's an unavoidable tragedy. There's nothing we can do. Clowns, clowns. Speaking of media misinformation, a stunning clip emerged. Joe, wouldn't you agree that if you
Starting point is 00:11:23 watched this, you were probably like, wait, what? Where was this? A pretty shocking clip emerged. Joe, wouldn't you agree that if you watched this, you were probably like, wait, what? Where was this? A pretty shocking clip emerged from March of 2016 of Peter Daszak. Oh, yeah. Who ran EcoHealth Alliance. Peter Daszak, right? I watched this thing. I'm like, where was this?
Starting point is 00:11:37 So the media is still covering for the lab leak theory. They're still trying to cover that up and not tell the truth about it. Still implying it's a conspiracy theory and others promoting the Fauci nonsense. Because why? Because Trump early on had indicated that China was likely behind the leak of this lab of this virus that whether it was accidental or not, we don't know. But they could not have Trump be proven right about anything. So when Trump said lab leak theory, I don't know. But they could not have Trump be proven right about anything. So when Trump said lab leak theory, I don't know, we got to check that out. The media said conspiracy theory because they had to attack Donald Trump because that's what they do.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Well, this just emerged. This is Peter Daszak, who's alleged by multiple reports to have been involved with this eco health alliance that got funding from the U.S. government and passed some of that funding on to the Wuhan lab where this virus may have leaked from. Here is Peter Daszak in March of 2016, this video service. Hat tip Hans Monke on social media. He did a great job here.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Here's Daszak talking about how the Wuhan lab manipulates the spike proteins on a SARS virus to enable it to infect human beings. This is real. And I want you to pay very close attention to something. Look at the guy. The guy's name is Ian Lipkin. Off his right shoulder, Daszak, as he's talking.
Starting point is 00:12:58 As Daszak starts to talk about how you manipulate one of these viruses to make it easy to infect human beings. Watch the guy's response. He's shocked. Check this out. We found other coronaviruses in bats, a whole host of them. Some of them looked very similar to SARS. So we sequenced the spike protein, the protein that attaches to cells. Then we, well, I didn't do this work, but my colleagues in China did the work. You create pseudoparticles, you insert the spike proteins from those viruses, see if they bind to human cells.
Starting point is 00:13:30 And each step of this, you move closer and closer to, this virus could really become pathogenic in people. Folks, where's the media on this? Where's the media on this? He just laid out a game plan on how to make a SARS coronavirus more infectious so it can infect human tissue. Yeah. What is that? We hear that way.
Starting point is 00:13:51 That is the media. Oh, it isn't the media. Yes. It's a swarm of crickets again. It's a chorus of crickets. Media is nowhere. Trump knew the whole time. Media is nowhere.
Starting point is 00:14:05 Trump knew the whole time. And yet the media, in an effort to cover up for their communist buddies in China and try to make Trump look bad, could not have Trump get a messaging victory by calling out China early and often. So when Trump said the lab leak theory is worth entertaining, the media had to say, no, it's not. Why? Because they're anti-anti-communist that's why remember the david horowitz theory of the left we're the anti-communists us joe me paula
Starting point is 00:14:33 gee jim mike we fight communism we fight collectivism the media and the left are the anti-anti-communist they will align with anyone to attack us they're the anti-anti-communist. They will align with anyone to attack us. They're the anti-anti-communist. If they have to align with the Chinese Communist Party, the Wuhan lab, the murderous Iranian regime, they don't care. Their sole goal is to defeat us. They have no principles at all.
Starting point is 00:14:57 When you understand Horowitz's anti-anti-communist theory, ladies and gentlemen, everything makes sense. I strongly encourage you to look it up. The left will align with anyone. An Iranian regime that throws gay men and women off buildings, a Chinese communist party that infects and kills American citizens with a deadly virus. They don't care. As long as those people work as pawns against us, the anti-communists, that's all that matters to them. I promise you will stop asking the question, why do liberals do this, after you understand the anti-anti-communist theory. I promise you will never ask that question again. It will become crystal clear why the left does what it does.
Starting point is 00:15:43 It'll also become crystal clear why the media keeps protecting Biden. I'm going to get to this video here in a second. This is Peter Doocy calling out Peppermint Patty on an obvious Biden lie that it's easily discredited. Biden, after the, remember the travel, Trump travel restrictions, which were instituted January 31st of 2020 from China when we first got word of the coronavirus outbreak, right? So Ducey asked a pretty common sense question to Peppermint. Let me get to this in a second. Hey, I thought this was racist and xenophobic. Now you're doing the same thing with restrictions from African countries.
Starting point is 00:16:22 We'll get to Peppermint's response, but it goes to show you again how outside of Fox and Peter Doocy, no one in the media will ask this guy or his administration an honest question because they're anti-anti-communist. They're fighting against us. No matter how hopeless and how much of a liar, duplicitous liar Biden is, it doesn't really matter. They'll protect him because they have to come after us. really matter. They'll protect them because they have to come after us. Metrolinks and Crosslinks are reminding everyone to be careful as Eglinton Crosstown LRT train testing is in progress. Please be alert as trains can pass at any time on the tracks. Remember to follow all traffic signals, be careful along our tracks tracks and only make left turns where it's safe to do so. Be alert, be aware, and stay safe.
Starting point is 00:17:11 When doctors, clinicians, and government officials collaborate with our country's innovative pharmaceutical companies, the side effects include improved policies that speed up the delivery of medications to those in need and better overall health for all Canadians. Delivery of medications to those in need and better overall health for all Canadians. So without further ado, here is Peter Doocy questioning Peppermint Patty on why they challenged Trump's travel restrictions during Corona and lobbed all kinds of nonsense at him. And now they're doing the exact same thing. Check this out. Before Joe Biden was president, he said that COVID travel restrictions on foreign countries were hysterical xenophobia and fear mongering. So what changed?
Starting point is 00:17:55 Well, I would say first to put it in full context, Peter, what the president was critical of was the way that the former president put out, I believe, a xenophobic tweet and how he called that what he called the coronavirus and who he directed it at. The president has not been critical of travel restrictions. We have put those in place ourselves. We put them in place ourselves in the spring. But no, he does not believe he believes we should follow the advice of health and medical experts. That's exactly what he did. And putting in place these restrictions over the weekend.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Notice what Peppermint does there. and putting in place these restrictions over the weekend. Notice what Peppermint does there. She says, well, you know, we were challenging Trump's xenophobic tweets about the travel ban at the time, and that's what we were doing. So just to be clear, to call these people out, to show you how Biden is an unrepentant liar, and everyone who represents them, Peppermint, is another unrepentant liar. Listen to me for a second, please.
Starting point is 00:18:46 These people are not stupid. Peppermint isn't stupid. Well, Biden, maybe everyone around Biden, except Biden, who's stupid, is not stupid. So just to be clear, she's saying now so we can follow the logic and call it out peppermint saying no no when we called out trump's travel restrictions from china we weren't challenging the travel restrictions do you notice this joe she says we were travel we were challenging his xenophobic tweet about it where he said that the China virus you were. Ladies and gentlemen, look at the date. You'll notice that the date on the Joe Biden tweet where he challenged the travel restrictions is before Trump made the tweet on March 18th that they didn't like about the so-called China virus.
Starting point is 00:19:46 So Joe Biden was calling out a xenophobic tweet days before the tweet was sent? What did he do? Was he Marty McFly? Back to the field. What did they do? They get in the DeLorean? Was there the flux capacitor inside? Was it the later one?
Starting point is 00:19:58 It was like an environmentally friendly one? How'd they do that? Ladies and gentlemen, these people are liars. They don't, they lie because to be crystal clear, they're not stupid. They think you're stupid. We were challenging Trump's tweet with our own tweet. How you tweeted it days before Trump tweeted it. Are you following me? How these people are such liars? She goes, we weren't calling out the travel bit. You were.
Starting point is 00:20:29 She goes, we were just calling out his characterization of the virus as the China virus. How? The tweet in question from Biden was days before the tweet from Trump. I can't. I can't with the lying. I can't with the lying. I can't with the lie. It's just unfathomable that a media that was obsessed with calling Trump a pathological liar has given a pass to the most pathological liar, even including Obama, to ever walk in the White House, Joe Biden. This guy, he is incapable of telling the truth about anything, even his own autobiography.
Starting point is 00:21:09 He thinks you won't go and look at the date of the tweets. Here's the tweet. A wall will not stop the coronavirus. Banning all travel from Europe or any other part of the world will not stop it. This disease can impact every nation on the planet, and we need a plan to combat it. There he is, calling out travel b bids the guy is full of crap we're calling out travel bids it's right there we're calling out a xenophobic tweet days before he said it proving again by the way that biden cannot stop lying because they're not stupid. He thinks you're stupid. He says things that anyone
Starting point is 00:21:48 doing a modicum of research, you don't have to be a political scientist, can easily discredit the minute he says them. He gave a speech yesterday, Biden, on how great the economy's doing and all this other stuff he's doing. And it was so laden with easily refutable lies. I can't believe even dumb liberals continue to fall for this. Here's an example. Wall Street Journal covers this. They say Biden's partisan pandemic history. The president wastes another opportunity to lead on COVID. So they talk about Biden's lies yesterday in his speech about the economy. They say, quote, usually Biden's whoppers involve his continuing effort to pretend the economy was a wreck when he took office. Initially, the whoppers were intended to justify his massive interventions in the marketplace.
Starting point is 00:22:36 Now they help to obscure the fact that real GDP growth was faster and inflation was lower when he took office than they are today. This is the point I made to know Miki Kantz when she came on my Fox show, unfiltered to, excuse me, to a debate. They keep saying Joe Biden rescued the economy from Donald Trump. Ladies and gentlemen, GDP growth was faster and inflation was lower in the months before Biden took office when Trump was still in charge. That's a fact. You can look it up. Go put in GDP growth by month, inflation by month, inflation by quarter. That's a fact. These people lie to you. Biden keeps pretending he came into office and saved you from the dastardly Donald Trump and those poor GDP growth rates and high inflation.
Starting point is 00:23:31 None of that happened until Biden got in office. I'm a little intense today. I'm sorry. I got a lot of energy. I know sometimes people get a little offended by my intensity. And my apologies. I don't mean to aggravate you on a tuesday i'm just really emotional about this topic because can these people ever tell the truth i had some ridiculous fact checker reach out to me yesterday on fakebook some bayless bayless wagner dunce
Starting point is 00:24:03 saying well you know hey i'm looking at fact-checking your post about Nancy Pelosi potentially moving to Florida. I'm like, are you kidding? You have the president of the United States who lies about everything. His autobiography, when Trump sent a tweet, he lies about GDP growth. He lies about inflation.
Starting point is 00:24:23 He even lies about the unemployment rate. I'll get to that in a second. And these idiot dunce fact checkers waste all their time on inanities and stupidity. Is Nancy Pelosi moving to Florida? God, I hope not. Idiots, idiots. I'm embarrassed for them. Can't believe these, their parents spawned such idiots. Your country can go moving into burning down into flames here. And he got fact checkers worried about Nancy Pelosi, in my opinion, on some reports that she's moving to Florida. Idiots. Here's another one from the journal article. An easily refutable lie. This guy can never tell the truth about anything. Easily refutable lie.
Starting point is 00:25:04 This guy can never tell the truth about anything. Here's Biden yesterday. Quote, we've made historic progress over the last 10 months. Unemployment is down to 4.6%, two years faster than everyone expected. When we started at this job, it was over 14%. Oh, my gosh. Folks, no, it wasn't. Oh my gosh. Folks, no, it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:25:30 As the journal indicates, the employment rate was less than half that level when he started the job, according to Biden's own Department of Labor. In fact, the rate had been running below 7% for several months before he took office. The economy staged a historic rebound in the second half of 2020 following the spring shutdowns. To our liberal non-friends out there, do you ever get tired of this? You ever get tired of being an idiot? Do you ever get tired of falling for this BS? Do you ever get tired of being lied to?
Starting point is 00:26:01 The unemployment rate when Biden took office was not 14%. Ask his own Department of Labor. Why are you being lied to? Because he doesn't respect you. He thinks you're an imbecile and that you'll never look it up. This man does not respect you. He is a serial, pathological liar who doesn't have a shred of dignity or intelligence. He is the worst candidate I have ever seen to run for the presidency ever. He is a grotesque human being.
Starting point is 00:26:32 Now you'll know the truth when your liberal friends regurgitate the stupidity. Biden, 14% unemployment. That's just not true. That's just not true. He's making it up. All right, moving on. Folks, big trouble ahead with Twitter. The new CEO of Twitter is not, this is not good.
Starting point is 00:27:01 His name is Parag Agrawal. Forgive me if I'm saying your name wrong. It's not intentional is Parag Agrawal forgive me if I'm saying your name wrong it's not intentional Parag Agrawal Jack Dorsey as you heard yesterday we broke it on the show yesterday as well is leaving as the CEO of Twitter I'm hearing it's because of a lot of investor pressure he's the CEO of Twitter and Square for those of you don't know by the way a little inside baseball me being in the tech business as well Jack Jack Dorsey's plaything is Twitter. Jack makes his money from Square, the payment processor, which is another disaster that I'll be dealing with again at a later date.
Starting point is 00:27:34 But that's where he makes his money. That's his Twitter's his plaything. It's why he doesn't care if Twitter folds tomorrow. I don't think he would like it, but it's not going to affect him financially as much as Square would, if Square were to fold. So he messes with conservatives and they discriminate against conservatives. So they appointed a new
Starting point is 00:27:50 CEO and ladies and gentlemen, people panic. And you should, because I believe this new CEO is going to usher in a new era of censorship. At New Balance, we believe if you run, you're a runner, however you choose to do it. Because when you're not worried about doing things the right way, you're free to discover
Starting point is 00:28:14 your way. And that's what running's all about. Run your way at NewB newbalance.com slash running. You may say, which you should, you should always question me, as I say often and I will continue to say. If you believe you are authentic and your material is authentic,
Starting point is 00:28:38 you should always implore your listeners, viewers, and readers to question you as well. It only builds faith and trust, and that's all that matters in this business. Here's what I'm basing this on. The new CEO of Twitter, I think, is going to be even worse than Jack Dorsey. I'd like you to read some of his comments. This was an interview he gave a long time ago.
Starting point is 00:28:55 I'm just going to read some of these. You'll see it up on the screen if you're watching Home and Rumble. This is disturbing. Again, the new CEO of Twitter, Parag Agrawal. He said, quote, our role is not to be bound by the First Amendment. It is. Wait, what? Our role is not to be bound by the First Amendment, but our role is to serve a healthy public conversation.
Starting point is 00:29:13 And our moves are reflective of things we believe will lead to a healthier public conversation. The kinds of things we do about this focus less on thinking about free speech, but thinking about how the times have changed. Paula just said, so he's not really concerned so much about free speech. He wants to focus, he wants to quote, focus less on thinking about free speech, but how the times have changed. I thought free speech was a bedrock, evergreen,
Starting point is 00:29:45 God-given right in this country. That's what I thought. Big R, God-given right. That changed. I thought free speech was a bedrock, evergreen, God-given right in this country. That's what I thought. Big R, God-given right. That's what I thought. But times are changing. Yeah, times are changing. We have a group of communist socialist speech censors, anti-civil liberty activists out there,
Starting point is 00:29:57 eager to crush free speech. And it appears from this guy's comments that he's one of them. You think, oh, well, maybe that was just one interview. No, here's another. This is a tweet by Parag Agrawal, who is at Parag A on Twitter, his platform, which he's the CEO of now.
Starting point is 00:30:13 He says, quote, I'm not sure what is more troubling, the death of free speech or that peace in society is threatened, that's a quote, if a book is not banned. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm imploring you with humility and respect to go find another option to Twitter. This is only going to get worse. They are likely going to double and triple down on their eager speech censorship of conservatives. By the way, I noticed yesterday a massive jump for Parler in the App Store yesterday, which probably had a lot to do with people preparing for their eventual banning from
Starting point is 00:30:50 Twitter. It leaped quite a bit in the App Store. So I'm not surprised at all by that. Not unusual. Everybody should have an alternate plan. Let me get to this also as well yesterday on the Ghislaine Maxwell trial. Listen, we're not going to let this go. Tucker covered this last night as well as me on my show yesterday, and he did a good job.
Starting point is 00:31:11 He was discussing how the Ghislaine Maxwell trial is inconvenient for the media to cover. It's inconvenient for the media to cover because a lot of the prominent people involved in the alleged sexual abuse of young girls happen to be Democrats and Democrat donors. And as I said yesterday on the show, I don't give a damn if you're a Republican conservative. I don't care what your political affiliation is. If you were involved with this Epstein case, you're going down on this show, too. But one of the prominent names involved in the alleged sexual abuse of young girls is Bill Clinton, who witnesses indicate may have been on Epstein Island with two young girls.
Starting point is 00:31:49 Well, some details emerged at the case yesterday, which are really, really disgusting. I'll keep the. More, the worst parts out for the sake of keeping the, you know, show. So you can listen to it, but this is a Washington examiner article by, by Nini, uh, Barnini, Chagra, Bordy prosecutors give graphic details of abuse during Oprah's opening
Starting point is 00:32:14 statements in Ghislaine Maxwell, criminal trial, the prosecutors, Laura Pomerantz. She began her opening statement by telling the story of a 14, 14 year old girl named Janeane who was attending a youth camp she says quote she was sitting at a picnic table for kids when a man and a woman walked by pomerantz told the jury the man introduced himself as someone who gave scholarships for kids. This is disgusting. They asked Jane for her phone number.
Starting point is 00:32:46 She's 14, folks. What Jane didn't know then was that this meeting at summer camp was the beginning of a nightmare that would last for years. The child is 14 years old, folks. She's 14. And then you got Geraldo defending Elaine Maxwell yesterday on the five figures.
Starting point is 00:33:15 14. You don't need to have kids to understand you're 14. That case is really tough to talk about. Like I said, I'm a father to two daughters, but you don't need to be a father to two daughters to understand the depravity of this case. This is a middle-aged man preying on kids barely in high school.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Freaking disgusting. Disgusting. Sorry. I'm not letting that case go. I told you why the media doesn't want to talk about it. Who is in that black book? They didn't offer Ghislaine Maxwell a plea deal, folks. I discussed it yesterday.
Starting point is 00:34:04 What does that tell you? That tells you they don't need herislaine Maxwell a plea deal, folks. I discussed it yesterday. What does that tell you? That tells you they don't need her to flip on someone else. The only reason you offer someone a plea bargain or a lesser charge is because you need their information to get a bigger fish. If they're not offering her a plea deal, that says to me as an investigator, she is the big fish,
Starting point is 00:34:19 and other people they're working with are diming her out, and the story's going to get worse. Who else is in that black book? 14-year-old girls. Girls. All right, I will stay on top of this case. You have my word. We're not letting it go.
Starting point is 00:34:36 The media may want to hide it, but we're not going to play that game. Hey, this is an interesting article I saw at Zero Hedge. It'll be in my newsletter today, bongino.com slash newsletter. Please subscribe. It's free. We don't spam bongino.com slash newsletter. Please subscribe. It's free. We don't spam your inbox. I send you the best news stories of the day. It makes it easier to follow the show. Bongino.com
Starting point is 00:34:52 slash newsletter. We really appreciate that. This has to be the most ironic article I've seen in a long time written anywhere. Zero Hedge, Tyler Durden. Hillary bemoans lack of media gatekeepers and the spread of disinformation wait what
Starting point is 00:35:11 ladies and gentlemen the cojones on hillary clinton this is the queen of disinformation see they learn their lesson in the collusion hoax what was the lesson you think they learned you know the answer during the collusion hoax. What was the lesson you think they learned? You know the answer. During the collusion hoax, Hillary Clinton got burned by people like me, John Solomon, Molly Hemingway, Sarah Carter, Hannity, Levin. She got burned by all of us. Why? Greg Jarrett.
Starting point is 00:35:39 Because we as independent reporters, now don't insult me by calling me a journalist, right? One out there dug up sources and found out that the collusion hoax was a Hillary generated scam to hijack the Justice Department. Simple as that. Hillary Clinton and the left
Starting point is 00:35:54 learned their lesson. Their lesson isn't don't try to frame Donald Trump for fake Russian collusion anymore using disinformation. The lesson they learned was keep doing it, but just make sure you shut down the truth tellers out there so we don't get caught in the lie. That's the lesson they learned. Make no
Starting point is 00:36:12 mistake. That's why they're using media idiots like Rachel Maddow, Moscow Rage, Russia Rage, Moscow Maddow, excuse me. That's why they're using her and the cat lady and others to push these new narratives that we are somehow responsible for the disinformation and we should be shut down it is the classic accuse your opponent of what you're doing thing imagine the cojones on hillary clinton the queen of disinformation talking about new media gatekeepers to stop disinformation. Please understand the takeaways here. That is exactly what they're doing. The only lesson they learn from the collusion hoax is do it again, but shut down Bongino, Jarrett, everyone else,
Starting point is 00:36:55 so that they can't get the truth out there. That's the only lesson they learn. Hence, they're flipping the script from being disinformation czars themselves to accusing others of doing it. All right, let me get to this video here. This is a good one. This is a double appearance by Ron DeSantis today on the show. Listen, I like Ron DeSantis.
Starting point is 00:37:15 I think he's terrific. I think he's a real leader. But it's relevant here to also the disinformation campaigns that continue by the media and how we're all waking up. How do I know we're waking up? Because I look at the poll data. I believe in science and data. When you ask Republicans and conservatives, do you trust the media?
Starting point is 00:37:31 The numbers are abysmal. Some cases they're beneath 20%. Think about that, way beneath. Less than two out of 10 people trust anything that comes from an outlet whose only job is supposed to get you the facts. If that doesn't speak to the epic failure of the media at their one job to get the facts out there, I don't know what does. Your only job is to give people the facts. And yet two out of 10 people,
Starting point is 00:37:54 when they hear the facts from you, don't believe them. And the Republican side, that should tell you something. We're winning. DeSantis gets that. He understands public enemy number one when it comes to the battle for truth. Public enemy number one against the truth is the American media, a grotesque operation. Here's DeSantis calling him out with what was, I think, a new low for the media. The Waukesha massacre, The Waukesha massacre, which we will not let go. The media decided it would be a good idea to blame it on the SUV as if it was like a transformer and decided to operate on its own using artificial intelligence and mow people down at a parade.
Starting point is 00:38:39 Why? Because they don't want you focused on the alleged perpetrator in the case who happens to be a male black with some alleged BLM ties. They don't, or allegiances to BLM based on some social media posts. They don't want any of that out there. Any of that. So DeSantis called them out for it. Yes, he wrecks the media here over the disgusting Walker show coverage.
Starting point is 00:38:59 Again, this is what leadership looks like. Check this out. Is that how it works? The SUVs, they just drive by themselves. This just kind of happened. And they say, oh, this was a big accident. You never actually hear the discussion about who committed this. What was the motivation? This guy was a career criminal, let out on, didn't really have any bail, basically, should not have even been on the street, had clear anti-white animus. And this was an intentional act.
Starting point is 00:39:28 And it seems like, you know, for corporate press, they're more apt to characterize a parent who goes to a school board meeting to protest bad policies as a domestic terrorist than somebody who intentionally rams an SUV into a crowd of innocent people. So you have at least six have died. You have many more that have been injured. I know many people are in the hospital. And so let's just be clear. This was not a car just driving in. This was an attack by a felon who did that, who should not have been on the street. Ron DeSantis understands the assignment here. Folks, we will never have a unified country and a constitutional republic
Starting point is 00:40:05 with a common set of operating principles and values if we can't have a media operation out there that tells the truth. How are you going to make decisions about what's best for the country when what's best is obvious based on the data and the data is hidden by a media operation engaged in full-time activism and propaganda? How are you going to do it? You're not. You're never going to have a country. What was DeSantis talking about? He was talking about this abhorrent tweet by the Washington Post about the Waukesha massacre. Washington Post, Twitter.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Here's what we know so far in the sequence of events that led to the Waukesha tragedy caused by an SUV. Caused by an SUV, folks. As if the SUV randomly, by itself, with no assistance whatsoever, mowed down a young child and others, taking their lives all too prematurely.
Starting point is 00:41:02 It was an SUV that did it. Folks, ignore these idiots. They were rotting cancer to this country. If this was a MAGA hat-wearing guy in a van who mowed down people at a BLM parade,
Starting point is 00:41:17 this would be the lead story on the news for the next hundred years. Damn straight. Yeah. You know it. But because it's not, and because it's a guy with a questionable social media history with some BLM stuff on there, who mowed down a bunch of victims at a parade in middle America,
Starting point is 00:41:38 all of a sudden they want a memory, hold the story. We're not going to let it happen. I'm not going to let it happen. I'm not going to let it happen. This case isn't going away. Elaine Maxwell's case isn't going away. And this is why I encourage you strongly. I know it sounds, sounds selfish of me to say,
Starting point is 00:41:57 I'm not saying it to be selfish. Please continue to use this show as a source of news. There were other shows out there too. There's some great commentators out there. You got Mark Levin. You got Tucker. You got Steve Dace. You got other truth tellers out there too.
Starting point is 00:42:14 It's not just about me. Please find your truth there because your truth is the truth. It's not your truth like the leftists say it. The truth is the truth. It is an objective, not subjective standard. It's an honor to have you here. We won't let you down. All right, let me get to my last sponsor.
Starting point is 00:42:33 And then I want to get to our... The beatings will continue until morale improves. Remember the housing crisis, Joe? Remember that? Kind of hard to forget, right? Yeah, I remember. Yeah, country's economy went into toilet bowl for about a year after the housing market collapsed well what if i told
Starting point is 00:42:48 you they're doing the exact same thing again of course they are because why folks oh yeah the beatings will continue until morale improves at wealth simple we're built for whatever you're building built for jane who wants to break into the housing market. We're built for Ted, who's obsessed with what's happening in the global markets. And built for Celine, who just wants to retire and explore the world's flea markets. So take a moment and think about what you're building for. We've got the financial tools to help make it happen. Wealthsimple. Built for possibilities. Visit wealthsimple.com slash possibilities
Starting point is 00:43:26 why do you miss paula in the studio i got a lot of emails about that she's back she is back to paulita okay the beatings will continue until morale improves folks listen i was no big fan of the bush administration it's not personal bush was always very nice to me and his family was always very nice to me and his family was always very nice to me. I worked with them as you well know, my prior line of work. But I was not a big fan of their politics. I thought they were kind of big government Republicans. It bothered me a lot of stuff they did. But one of the things I, Joe, you may not even remember this, but when we first started doing the show,
Starting point is 00:44:00 one of the things that always bothered me about the left's constant lying, the media's coverups, to do in the show, one of the things that always bothered me about the left's constant lying, the media's cover-ups, is even when the evidence is right in front of your face that a radical leftist policy did something, not in the Ilhan Omar way. Some people did something with that disgusting tweet. But when it's on tape, to cite the good old days, when it's on tape that the liberals did something and you go, wait, we said this was going to happen
Starting point is 00:44:27 if liberals did X and then Y happened. And then they look back and they go, no, no, no, we didn't do it. Republicans do it. I was unnecessarily the long way of saying
Starting point is 00:44:36 the housing crisis. One of the things that always ticked me up at the housing crisis is every single conservative on planet earth and even milquetoast Republicans like George W w bush and their administration warned that if the government bought through gses fannie and freddie a lot of mortgages which incentivized people to give
Starting point is 00:44:54 mortgages to people who couldn't afford them that eventually people were going to default on the house we're going to have a housing crisis and then when it happened what happened with liberals well thankfully they apologized and said we're really sorry for promoting these GSEs and trying to get people who couldn't afford them in house. No, no, I'm sorry. Verdict is in. None of that happened. The liberals turned around after the housing crisis we predicted happened.
Starting point is 00:45:15 And liberals said what? It was deregulation that did it. It was deregulation that did it. One, the deregulation happened under Bill Clinton that they're talking about. And second, that had nothing to do with local banks, deregulation and the financial crisis that resulted afterwards. It was largely investment banks and others. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:45:34 What are you? What are you even talking about? You just made that up. Here's what I mean. I want you to look back. This is an oldie but goodie here. Here is a video clip from Fox taken back in the day. here's a video clip from Fox taken back in the day warning about exactly this how the Bush administration and others warned about the housing crisis before it happened saying hey we've got
Starting point is 00:45:54 these government-sponsored entities Fannie and Freddie buying mortgages from people incentivizing banks to give mortgages to people who can't afford them I want you to watch this and. And in the liberals' memory hole, it's like none of this happened. Check this out. The Bush administration raised red flags starting in April 2001. The O2 budget request declares that the size of mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is, quote, a potential problem because financial trouble in either one of them could, quote, cause strong repercussions in financial markets. In 2003 the White House warning about Fannie and Freddie was upgraded to a systemic risk that could spread beyond just the housing sector. In fall of 03 the Bush administration was pushing Congress hard to create a new federal agency to regulate and supervise Fannie and Freddie both government-sponsored enterprises or GSEs.
Starting point is 00:46:45 We need a strong, world-class regulatory agency to oversee the prudential operations of the GSEs and the safety and the soundness of their financial activities. But then-Treasury Secretary Snowe was getting a lot of pushback from then-ranking member, now chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, Democratic Congressman Barney Frank. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are not in a crisis. In fact, Frank said the federal government should be encouraging Fannie and Freddie to do more to get low-income families into homes. And he believed too many people had a sky-is-falling mentality. The more people, in my judgment, exaggerate a threat of safety and soundness,
Starting point is 00:47:28 the more people conjure up the possibility of serious financial losses to the Treasury, which I do not see. I think we see entities that are fundamentally sound financially. OK, well, why am I showing you that now? Yeah, Dan, the housing crisis happened. So what? Republicans warned about it. Barney Frank and the Democrats said it's right there. It's right there on tape.
Starting point is 00:47:49 No, no, no worries. Barney Frank, no worry. Nothing's going to happen. Because folks, after it did happen and they blamed deregulation, which was total nonsense, you believe they're doing it again? Even worse? No, they are. I'm not kidding. You believe they're doing it again? Even worse? No, they are. I'm not kidding. Wall Street Journal article.
Starting point is 00:48:07 They're doing it again. What's the date? November 30th. Mark the date. Record the time. We're about, I don't know, 45 minutes plus into the show. I don't know, 50 minutes. Record this for your friends.
Starting point is 00:48:22 When the housing market collapses again, remember this day. Fannie and Freddie are doing the same thing again. Wall Street Journal headline, the housing gang's getting back together for another bust. Fannie and Freddie will buy mortgages up to $1 million now, repeating the mistakes that led to the 2008 crash. None of this will matter. The market will crash again. And I promise you, the left will go, Trump did it. Mar-a-Lago. Because they're idiots, even though we're warning them right now. Here we go again, the Wall Street Journal says. The only difference that the administration is proposing, and what brought about the 2008 financial crisis,
Starting point is 00:48:53 is that the economy is already in an inflationary period, induced by the administration's other policies. This will make home ownership even riskier. In addition, Fannie and Freddie, now get a load of this, Joe, will be buying mortgages up to a million dollars instead of just $450,000 like they did today. Good job, fellas. Good job. Well done. You guys are awesome. It's not like this didn't happen in our lifetimes just a few years ago. You know, this isn't the Great Depression. It didn't happen with James Polk in the White House. This just happened.
Starting point is 00:49:27 Instead of Fannie and Freddie saying, hey, let's not do more of what caused the crisis, they're saying, no, let's do double what bought the... Let's double the mortgages we buy now. Dude, and you were apologizing for being fired up today? Really? And Joe, here's what's
Starting point is 00:49:46 the most frustrating you know as well as i do none of this matters dude it doesn't matter i fully realize the market will crash joe biden's uh overseers that expanded the same program that caused the crash in the first place will take no responsibility at all. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter at all. By the way, here's one more quick example before I move on to our, we have a hero of the day today and a good one. You know, the left lies to you all the time. Biden lies to you and the media covers for them. You know, they're pushing this green new deal and all these energy taxes now, a carbon tax, green New Deal, gas taxes, all this other stuff. So I pulled a blog from a, what is it, a Rose by another name blog. It's pretty good. And they put a chart together how energy taxes, which liberals claim are helping the poor and helping the environment,
Starting point is 00:50:38 actually screw over the poor most of all. Look at this chart here. You'll see that the percentage of people who make $120,000 or more, it is a relatively small portion of their income, electricity, gasoline, heating, gas, and fuel oil. Yet if you make less than $20,000, it is a monstrous part of your daily budget. But again, just keep making it more expensive for the poor. The rich don't care. It's a minuscule portion of what they spend their money on. Poor spend a whole lot. But keep it up, leftists. Hit it for the cause. You guys are great. Nice job.
Starting point is 00:51:14 Really well done. Alright, let me get some good news on a Tuesday. It's a relatively joyous season, the Christmas season. This is Enos Cantor. Have you heard of Enos Cantor? Enos Cantor is a basketball player for the Christmas season. This is Enos Kanter. Have you heard of Enos Kanter? Enos Kanter is a basketball player for the Celtics. This guy is a real hero, a genuine
Starting point is 00:51:30 human being. He left Turkey. He was not a big fan of the totalitarian regime in Turkey. So Enos Kanter left. He's now in the NBA, and he became an American citizen this week. He was on Tucker Carlson last night, and gosh, it is so refreshing to see professional athletes like this celebrate
Starting point is 00:51:49 and love this great country that give them the opportunity to play the sport they love for a significant financial reward. This is a really wonderful human being, this Enos Cantor. I want you to listen to him last night on Tucker. Check this out. Much more than a lot of us who grew up with those freedoms. Have you noticed that? You know, I feel like I'm going to just say this and I'm going to be honest. People should feel really blessed and lucky to be in America because, you know, they love to criticize it. But when you leave a country like Turkey or, you know, China or somewhere else, you will appreciate the freedoms you have here.
Starting point is 00:52:26 Yes, that is exactly. So I feel like they should just, please, they should just keep their mouth shut and stop criticizing the greatest nation in the world. And they should focus on their freedoms and their human rights and their democracy. So this is, America gave me everything I have. So I definitely appreciate the United States of America.
Starting point is 00:52:47 All right, folks, that's our hero of the day. We haven't had one of those in a while, Enes Kanter. Just a really terrific show. I'm going to try to get him on my show. He's spectacular. Just someone that celebrates America and all these wonderful opportunities. Folks, we're as bad as it gets
Starting point is 00:53:00 with this incompetent buffoon in the White House. Don't ever forget, this is still the greatest country on earth. Still God touched this place a long time ago. I'm convinced. Absolutely convinced. And, uh,
Starting point is 00:53:14 just on a note, just be careful about that. Hey, Luigi, Clinton, Ellie folks, stay on top of that. If we can get a fact checker out there to check on that,
Starting point is 00:53:20 just to be sure. Hey, Luigi, Clinton, Ellie, make sure you check out that Babylon B story, by the way, it'd be in the show notes as well. In addition to have Bongino report. Hey, Luigi, Clint and Ellie, make sure you check out that Babylon Bee story, by the way, it'll be in the show notes as well,
