The Dan Bongino Show. Get ready to hear the truth about America with your host, Dan Bongino. Alright, welcome to the Dan Bongino Show. Producer Joe, how are you today? It's show 700. 700, man. 700. Yeah, man. I'm doing good. Three years of shows, two years of doing daily. Thank you to everyone. We had our best Monday ever. Show's exploding everywhere. Thanks exclusively to you. From the deepest portion of my heart and soul, I really, really, really sincerely,

deeply appreciate your support. It means the world to me. Thanks to everyone who subscribes as well. That really helps our numbers a lot. I know some of you listen on the website. That's cool. But if you can subscribe on platforms, iTunes, iHeartRadio, Spotify, our YouTube channel,

that really, really helps. So thank you so much, folks. I have another stacked show today for you. And a hat tip to the listeners. Joe, someone sent me some explosive information on an interview I missed. And I had been working on a different angle from it, for those of you who are regular listeners to the show, but more incredible and explosive information.

But I got a lot to get to before today. Okay, let's get right in. Here we go. To the show. Today's show brought to you by buddies at iTarget. We love iTarget. Folks, listen to firearm. Anybody can buy one.

Anybody can fire a firearm. The question is, can you fire one accurately? Proficiency matters, especially, God forbid, you're involved in a self-defense scenario. If you're a hunter, if you're a police officer, military, or just a first-time firearm owner who wants to learn how to proficiently fire the weapon, this stuff matters. Now, one of the best ways to do that is dry firing. Dry firing is safely unloading a weapon. Check it.

Check it twice. Check it three times. Lock that slide to the rear. Open the cylinder. Look. Make sure it's unloaded. Look away. look again, look back, finger probe that chamber, make sure it is in fact unloaded. And then at that point, you safely dry fire an unloaded weapon. You practice your trigger pull, your sight alignment, and it is a really excellent way

to get proficient fast with your weapon. Now, the problem with that is you have no idea where the round would have gone because there's no round. It's a dry fire. Well, competitive shooters dry fire 10 times more than they live fire. The iTarget system will let you take that dry fire practice to the next level. How? They will send you a laser round and a target. A laser round, what's that, you ask? It is a round that goes in the firearm you have now.

You don't have to do anything with it, no special manipulations. Joe, you make me laugh. You have a 9mm weapon, you drop that nine millimeter laser round in and you see exactly where that round would have gone. It is a terrific system. It's like a video game to learn how to use your firearm proficiently, which matters. Go to itargetpro.com. That's the letter, itargetpro.com, itargetpro.com.

Joe, on the show notes today, as you can see, I have it titled, well, you may not be able to see that. It looks like a lot of stuff. It's a lot of stuff. I have the it titled well you may not be able to see that it looks like

a lot of stuff it's a lot of stuff uh it's i have the show title today this can't be happening because the stuff people are sending me is so hard to believe that you're like nah i have to i when you're looking at reuters articles reuters which is uh you know it's not a conservative uh mainstream media outlet by any stretch but you know reuters been around a while when you're looking at Reuters articles folks and you're googling the title of the Reuters article someone sent you to make sure it's really Reuters that's how you know you're like what the hell's going on here now what happened yesterday Sean Hannity of disclosure here I know Sean Hannity he is not my attorney um and I feel like Sean Hannity should have the right to have an attorney on that. But that's a whole different story. I know Sean. I would go to bat

for Sean any day of the week and twice on Sunday. I love this guy. He wouldn't even be comfortable with me telling you the kind of stuff he does for people behind the scenes, because that's not the kind of guy he is, because unlike liberals, he doesn't seek public praise okay sean is an unbelievably good-hearted man again that joe knows some of the stories because i've talked about this stuff this guy does he's just an amazing guy okay sean is under ruthless attack by people on the left because of some advice on uh what real estate matter he sought from a guy who happened to represent Trump. Keep in mind, Sean probably has, what did he say, eight different attorneys. This is not a guy who he's had

on retainer or anything like that. So now we know on the left, Joe, if you even call an attorney, Joe, you and I, right, we know people that have come in and out of the radio station, other places. You see a lawyer, you go, hey, what do you think about this? Now all of a sudden, if you do that, you run the risk by tyrannical police state fascist liberals

of being exposed in court as some kind of a co-conspirator in a fake crime you made up. Dude, that is the most insultingly stupid non-story that I think I have ever heard in my life. He has a lawyer. Imagine that. I don't get it. I don't get it. I don't get it. I don't understand what's going on right now with the left. But I sent out a tweet this morning, and I meant it on Twitter.

Things we can no longer do as conservatives. Remember, Hillary can bring her friend, Cheryl Mills, who is not her lawyer, into a meeting acting as her lawyer, while Cheryl Mills is a potential co-conspirator in the email scandal to cover up for Hillary on the email scandal. Well, they still haven't released all the emails and that's a OK. But you make a phone call to a guy who happens to be an attorney and he asked him for some quick legal advice. And all of a sudden you're involved in a federal Russian conspiracy case that doesn't exist. This is amazing what's happening right now. Things you can't do anymore as a conservative.

Talk on the phone, as Mike Flynn found out. You can't talk on a college campus as Ben Shapiro found out. You can't hire an attorney as Sean Hannity found out. You can't file a tax return as Donald Trump found out. You can't own a business as cake makers in Oregon found out. These are all things you can no longer do when you're a conservative because of tyrannical, fascist police state liberals. This is it. Soon it'll be you'll no longer be able to purchase a firearm either if liberals get their way. Folks, these people, do you understand these people are tyrannical, fascist?

Now listen to me, because I'm getting a lot of emails about this too, and I don't want to keep reiterating old shows. I'm not trying to unnecessarily peak your emotion early in the morning for some of you listen to this on the west coast but I'm getting a lot of emails still from people who are saying hey I'm I'm done I can't do this anymore you know this fight it's over I don't see anything coming out of this folks I I'm not gonna I'm out of this. Folks, I'm not here for, I'm not like an inspirational public speaker, motivational guy. It's not my job here.

But I'm here to tell you that being right, if you, let me just leave it at this and I'll move on because I don't want to get into one of those rants again, really. That speaks for itself

and you can go back and listen to the dance episode that everybody seemed to love. If you believe this is it, this pain-ridden world of suffering and hunger and pain and envy and greed and lust and rage, if you believe this is it, that you're going to go six feet deep and become worm food and it's all over, then you're right. Forget it. It is over then food and it's all over, then you're right. Forget it. It is over then.

It is over because that's it for you. That's it. This is it for you, Joe. Your meat, your meat will rot one day and that's it. Your brain will go away and there was nothing, there was no purpose to this other than to fight a political fight where you believe you clearly lost. I don't, I'm not trying to insult anybody.

I just don't have any words of inspiration for you if you clearly lost. I don't, I'm not trying to insult anybody. I just don't have any words of inspiration for you if you believe that. If you believe, however, what I believe, that you have been put on this planet to fight for a set of principles and rights that actually matter, then you are doing absolutely what you were supposed to do and that doing is the ticket in your path to the second creation,

a better tomorrow, a better tomorrow that depending on what religion you believe in means a bunch of different things. I know what it believes, what it matters to me and what I believe in. Your sole purpose here is to fight back. That's it. We live in a very prosperous time that starvation and hunger are relatively rare comparatively speaking to our history you know even if you're poor in the United States a lot of people have access to television air conditioning I'm not saying it's not poor people I'm just saying relatively speaking being poor now sucks a whole lot less than it did 200 years ago where the potential for death and starvation was very, very real. This is the fight.

This is the fight. We're all in it. I'm in it yesterday. Joy Reid now. Joy Reid, she took a shot at NRA TV claiming false victimhood status. Going right back at her. This is my fight. Don't get disappointed.

Relish in the fact that you are here to suffer for a bigger and higher cause. Love it. Own it. Be it. This is it. This is the mission. Alright. Moving on because this is important. I have a lot to get to today material wise. Reuters. September 21st 2013 story about George

Soros' wedding. You're probably thinking right now, what the heck does that have to do with Sean Hannity being attacked by the left? Now, just to set the story in case you missed the Sean Hannity part, which I doubt because it was everywhere. Sean Hannity sought some legal advice on a matter. I don't know if he said it was a real estate matter or something, from the lawyer who represents Trump, whose office was unbelievably raided by Bob muller this is trump's personal

attorney a guy named michael cohen so sean had done some uh asked him for some real advice on some legal advice on something a judge in a court on the cohen case revolving trump and um cohen and the stormy daniels payment. So we're following here, Joe, and it'd stop me if I confuse anyone, right? All right. The judge on the case demanded, and I've never heard anything like this, in open court that the judge disclose,

instead of just asking for a private sealed memo on who Cohen's other clients were, in order for, this is what you have to understand, Cohen's trying to prove Trump's for this is what you have to understand Cohen's trying to prove Trump's lawyer that he's an actual attorney and that he gives legal advice and that he's not just a business partner with Trump you got that now why would he be trying to do that Joe Cohen is trying to do that to claim that there's attorney client privilege in his communications with Trump in other words I'm not acting as some kind of fixer or business guy. I'm Trump's actual attorney.

I practice law and I have other clients. Does that make sense? Yes, it does. In order to do that, he put out who his other clients were. One was this other RNC donor who's got some issues with a payoff to some Playboy Playmate. Listen, lawyers, folks, newsflash, lawyers usually find people who need legal help. This shouldn't be surprising to anybody, okay? But he had another client as well, or he said in court, and instead of keeping it sealed, there was no reason to make this public,

the judge in the case demanded that in open court, he tell everyone, Cohen, the name of that third client who he had provided some type of legal advice for who was the client Sean Hannity is this making sense Joe yeah the judge makes the uh Cohen in open court announce who his third client is something I I've never heard anything like this there may be email me if you say I've never seen anything like this who is the judge Joe let me go back to the reference i opened up with reuters september 21st 2013 george soros and a woman last name of bolton they get married they exchange vows quote in a small ceremony at soros's bedford new york estate you know who george soros

is folks liberal billionaire donor and billionaire, donor, and funder of just about every far-left cause you could probably dig up on the planet, George Soros. Who do you think was the judge, because it was his third marriage, Soros, who do you think was the judge who presided and officiated at this non-denominational wedding, according to the piece? and officiated at this non-denominational wedding according to the piece oh the same judge who ordered Hannity's name to be disclosed in open court despite the fact that he was just seeking some legal advice yes the same judge Kimba Wood yeah Kimba that's right did you know this I had this sent to me and I'm like this can't possibly be true now Kimba Wood should ring a bell for others who are a little older here.

Kimba Wood was also going to be a nominee for attorney general by who? William Jefferson Clinton. Oh, Bill, folks, this, oh my gosh, I can't keep telling you how much this case, the rot emanating from this entire disaster. Kimba Wood, Kimber Wood, a federal judge who could have been the attorney general under Bill Clinton. There was some nanny issues during that whole, excuse me, nanny gate affair.

Also the judge who officiated at the wedding ceremony of George Soros, liberal philanthropist, if you can even call it that, who donates hundreds of millions of dollars to liberal causes, demands an open court that the name of Sean Hannity be disclosed, despite the fact that Sean doesn't keep this guy on retainer, according to Hannity himself. He just asked him for some legal advice on a real estate thing. So just remember, folks, if you're in business, if you're in content production, anything from this point on, if you even ask, Joe, I'm just wondering.

Yeah. You know, you've asked, is it Phillip? Not Phillip. What's the guy, the lawyer at CBM? Michael Friedman. Friedman. Maybe we should. Folks, one time Joe asked a lawyer at WCBM when we and Joe were working out a deal.

Joe asked him for some quick legal advice. Let me, let's just put that out there, Joe. out a deal joe asked him for some quick legal advice let me let's just put that out there joe a case in the future someone investigates someone who knew someone who knew someone who knew an attorney who knew this guy this is ridiculous i'm in trouble now we're all in trouble no we are there's things we just can't do anymore because liberal tyrannical police state fascists are taking the country over bit by bit by bit by bit and by the way the way they get you to not pay attention is the way joy reed did it yesterday with us she's slick but she thinks we're not onto what she does is she's like they make things up despite

the fact i'm not going to play the cut of me because i hate playing playing cuts of myself but reed attacked us the at nra tv so on my 5 30 p.m show at night at nra tv um.com if you want to check it out i fought right back she was insinuating that when one of my friends and co-workers at nra tv grant stinchfield when he said that hey joy we're watching you we're watching your show oh snowflake that was an incitement to violence joe they're watching us oh snowflake. That was an incitement to violence. Joe, they're watching us. Snowflake culture, safe space, color forms, crayons, markers. We got to draw something. Oh, it's pathetic.

So I hit her back. I'm like, you're so weak. It's pathetic. And I specifically said my thing. Don't mistake this for a call to violence, an incitement to violence, or an insinuation of an incitement to violence. We're simply saying you guys are weak. You're so weak. It's so pathetic.

You attack people, which is what you do endlessly. And the minute people fight back like I do on this show and on my NRA TV show, what do you do? They're inciting violence. They're inciting violence. Grow up. Grow up, Joy. Grow up. You're hapless.

It's pathetic. It's weak. Now, next will be the race card and other identity politics attacks. It's inevitable because that's all they have. You're weak. I have no respect for weakness. None. You guys are weak.

And I insinuated that they should embrace Spartan culture, the skin in the games culture, because I was reading a book by Taleb, and not, in fact, snowflake culture. In other words, you comment on other people having no skin in the games culture because i was reading a book by tuleb and not in fact snowflake culture in other words you comment on other people having no skin in the game yourself you're a media commentator joy you failed to understand the analogy because you're really not that bright i had skin in the game i was a secret service agent i'm a business owner i was a police officer you don't have skin in the game you sit there on your perch at msnbc you hurl nonsense you know race got blood on its hands oh you nonsense and then when people fight back oh oh i'm being attacked it's pathetic it's pathetic pathetic and weak and i applaud hannity last night for hammering away last night on his show hammer. The only way to fight these people is taking a full frontal battle attack.

Oh my gosh, are we inciting violence again? Let me be clear for all the liberal dopes out there who don't understand. My faith matters to me. This is not a joke. You bet. I abhor violence. Outside of self-legitimate self-defense. I abhor violence outside of self-legitimate self-defense. I abhor violence.

If you'd listen to the show, you'd understand that. The fact that I'm a big guy, 6'1", 225, and I may look scary to you means nothing. My faith matters to me. Your faith doesn't matter to you. You know how I know that? Because you slay infants in the womb and you love it. It doesn't matter to you. Ab know how I know that? Because you slay infants in the womb and you love it. It doesn't matter to you. Abortion's like a sacrament for you guys.

It matters to me. I'm suggesting to you that in an ideological fight, look it up, ideological fight. You may want to Google that. That if you think for a second we are not going to fight back, you are out of your minds. And I applaud Sean for fighting back last night.

Alright, I've got a ton to get to, including a hat tip to the listener who pointed me in this direction. This is going to really scramble your eggs. Before we get to it, let me get this stuff done administratively so we can roll through it. Today's show brought to you by our buddies at BrickHouse Nutrition.

I had been talking about Eric Prince and George nader the other day um i promise you i'll make this make sense so don't worry but eric prince who is the brother of betsy devos trump's education secretary and uh has been a pretty strong supporter of some conservative education causes over the years devos that is eric prince uh who used to own blackwater has always been

a target of the left they just don't like the family they don't like him Blackwater has always been a target of the left. They just don't like the family. They don't like him. Blackwater's always been a target. Now, I'm pretty sure he's divested his interest from that company. But what's fascinating about Eric Prince is he's a very well-connected guy. Now, I had told you in my,

and I haven't told Joe any of this because I want to make sure he understands it at the end. Last week that Mueller was the one guy appointed bob muller in the special council to do one thing that is to focus relentlessly and endlessly on the trump team connections and to pick out people that may be connected to the clintons in some nefarious activity but focus on their connections to the Trump team. In other words, this was a setup the whole time. In order to hide the Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, empire of sleazy activity and Obamagate spying,

the whole role of the Mueller team was to focus on people who may have slightly connected with the Trump sphere, but who were implicated in the Clinton sphere too, and focus exclusively on Trump to keep the attention off the Clintons. Mueller was the guy to do that. I made the case in Friday and Thursday and Friday's episode last week that it's indisputable to me at this point. Now, Eric Prince has become a target of muller because of a meeting in the seychelles and remember prince just so you understand the connection to trump and i'm using air quotes

because they'll connect anyone to trump but the connection to trump is prince's sister betsy devos is trump's education secretary in his cabinet does that make sense folks yeah yeah prince had a meeting in the seychelles now in order to advance this russian collusion false narrative this has become a target of the muller investigation this meeting before trump took office because at this meeting was a guy named george nader and a russian okay kirill dimitriev so we clear on this prince who's tied to the trump team through his sister meets in the seychelles with a russian who's a ceo of a russian direct investment firm and it's set up by a guy named nader wow that's convenient gosh you want a russian collusion out of this russian guy shows up and saying how that happens. Right now. I kept wondering to myself, Prince is a prince, Eric Prince, a private sister. Who cares who he is? No one's alleging anything he did was illegal. Why would I kept thinking to myself, why, why, why would Prince become such a target outside of his political influence to his sister?

become such a target outside of his political influence to his sister. Obviously, it's to keep the attention on the Trump team. But why Prince specifically? I have some audio here. And hat tip to the listener. I had it from a few people.

I think it was Bob and then Tracy. A couple people sent me this audio. I miss this. Listen to this interview. This is going to blow your mind. Eric, this is Eric Prince on Breitbart Radio with Alex Marlowe. Talking about, just to set this up, some information he has through his connections.

This is a very well-connected guy. Some information he has. This is a while well connected guy some information he has this this is a while ago this interview about the anthony weiner computer remember anthony weiner joe anthony weiner's husband former congressman disgraced congressman who was um exchanging illicit uh texts and stuff with an underage girl weiner's spouse's spouse is Huma Abedin, Hillary Clinton's right-hand woman. They found information

Huma was sending to Wiener's computer. I guess it was some kind of home computer. They found information on it, the NYPD, and in turn, turned it over to the FBI because they were investigating Weiner for this sexting activity with this underage girl. Listen to Prince's take on what they found and maybe it'll all make sense right now why Mueller is targeting Prince.

I'm going to break this up into two cuts. So play cut one. Because of Weiner Gates and the sexting scandal, the NYPD started investigating it. There was a subpoena through a warrant. They searched his laptop and sure enough found those 650,000 emails. They found way more stuff than just the more information pertaining to the inappropriate sexting the guy was doing. They found State Department emails.

They found a lot of other really damning criminal information, including money laundering, including the fact that Hillary went to this sex island with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Bill Clinton went there

more than 20 times. Hillary Clinton went there at least six times. The amount of garbage that they found in these emails of criminal activities by Hillary, by her immediate circle, and even by other Democratic members of Congress was so disgusting. They gave it to the FBI, and they said, we're going to go public with this if you don't reopen the investigation, if you don't do the right thing with timely indictments. What? What? Bob, Tracy,

it may not have been Bob, it may have been another, the guys who sent me that and the ladies. Thank you. How did I miss that? Listen, when i miss it i miss it i've done my the book is coming together unbelievably well but i missed that i did not i've i'd never heard of that interview before what are you gonna do what are you gonna do you have donnie brasco oh that was a perfect opportunity.

I'm full. Damn. Totally blew it on that one. We love Joe. This guy's the best. I put a lot of pressure on Joe with drops. I'm sorry. We have like a library of stuff.

Folks, how did I miss that? Eric Prince is on Breitbart. I have another cut from this. It's a long interview. He goes on Breitbart News Radio on Sirius with Alex Marlowe and says the NYPD found on Wiener's computer. Now, I can't attest to the veracity of the information here. I'm just telling you what he said

because I'm trying to make a connection to you why Prince would become a target of Bob Mueller. Is that clear, Joe? He says they found 650,000 emails, information about money laundering, Democrat members of Congress, the Jeffrey Epstein underage plane. I don't know if that's true. It may be. I don't know. But apparently it's so disturbed the people at the NYPD, which I have heard from sources, by the way, remember, I said this the other day, that they were going to go public, that that's why Jim Comey came out

and gave that press conference about reopening the Clinton investigation 10 days out. It was to protect Hillary, not to hurt her. Well, why? You give a press conference 10 days out or you release a letter saying you're reopening investigation? They had no choice. Listen to what Prince is saying. I've heard this from another completely independent source that the new york field office of the fbi and the mypd were so disturbed by what they saw in this i just said this to you last week that they were going to do their own thing so comey takes it joe are we clear on this and says hey i'm going to do my own press conference at least I can kind of spin the narrative my way to protect Hillary did you hear what he just said about what they found on this thing now it gets better again we're trying to make the point that this is why Prince

may be now be a target of Mueller I'm going to take it down the rabbit hole even further this is going to really freak you out listen to what he says now about how the Justice Department in D.C. and Loretta Lynch was so horrified at what may have been on that computer implicating the Democrats and Hillary Clinton right before an election on Anthony Weiner's Perv computer that they needed something to get people to stop talking. So listen to what Prince alleges about what the Justice Department, Loretta Lynch's Justice Department, did to the NYPD and the New York field office of the FBI to get them to shut their pie holes about this. Play that cut.

NYPD wanted to do a press conference announcing the warrants and the additional arrests they were making in this investigation. And they've gotten huge pushback to the point of coercion from the Justice Department. The Justice Department threatening to charge someone that had been unrelated in the accidental heart attack death of Eric Garner, the guy almost two years ago. What? Listen. Do you understand what you just heard? That the Justice Department under Loretta Lynch

was engaged in a coercion campaign to stop the NYPD from going public about negative information they found on Anthony Weiner's computer about the Clintons and the Democrats, damaging, destructive information, according to Prince. Again, I can't authenticate the veracity of that. I do. I have not heard that independently from the NYPD. I want to be clear. I'm just suggesting to you that this, what Prince said, regardless of the veracity of it,

clearly right now makes him a target for Bob Mueller. And says to me, is this true? That they were, the Justice Department, let me break down what he said because you may not be familiar with the case. There was a guy in New York, he was selling Lucy's, cigarettes, untaxed cigarettes on a corner. Eric Garney, he was a big guy, six foot plus, 400 pounds. He was a black male. The officer was white that approached him. The store owner called the cops

and basically wanted Garner removed from the front of the store. He was selling untaxed cigarettes. The guy didn't want Garner doing it in front of his store. The officer shows up. A scuffle ensues. There was a chokehold involved. Garner winds up dying of a heart attack later on.

Now, what happened in the case, they blame the officer for an unnecessary use of force scenario, but the Justice Department was looking into this. What Prince is alleging here is very serious. Prince is alleging here is very serious prince is alleging that the justice department was threatening the mypd like hey we're gonna look into this and he specifically says and charge someone on this if you guys don't make this thing go away oh my if his source is right do you understand the bombshell released on how this hasn't been widely distributed?

I don't know. I did not hear this. I missed it. While discussing Prince and Nader. Now, does it make sense why he would become such a target for the Mueller campaign if what he said was in fact true? The Mueller special counsel shut him down protect the swamp defend the crown no matter what shut him down we can't have this guy out there talking about what they found on that computer shut him down now in light of what I discussed last week, let's review that information in the context of what you just heard.

Prince on Breitbart News Radio releases incredibly damaging information about a Justice Department quid pro quo to make damaging information on Hillary go away or allow them to control it. What happens to Prince? Prince shows up at a meeting in Seychelles. At that meeting is a guy named George Nader. Let me just describe to you quickly. So keep in mind, Prince is at the, he's at, this is December, excuse me. He was at a couple of meetings,

one in December and another one. But Nader is at a meeting with Prince in the Seychelles and sets up this meeting with this Russian. I'm going to get to him in a second. But this is from Dan Abrams' Law and Crime. I'm going to read to you a piece about Nader. Nader, keep in mind, is cooperating with the Mueller investigation, potentially against Prince. Quote, Nader is widely believed to have orchestrated a December 2016 meeting at Trump Tower during which Mike Flynn, Jared Kushner, and Steve Bannon met with bin Zayed. Nader is also believed to have organized a controversial meeting in the seychelles during which eric prince

and others including camille caril dimitri of chief executive of the russian direct investment fund met with bin syed earlier this month nader began cooperating with Mueller's investigation. Thursday's report suggests Nader may be done cooperating. According to the report, it would appear Mueller's witness sought to exit the United States after the Atlantic earlier this month reported Nader had been indicted, though not convicted, on child pornography charges in 1985. Mueller's using an indicted but not convicted potential charge, a guy who was charged with child pornography, to cooperate against Eric Prince about a meeting in the Seychelles after Prince, you know, Prince, who they may have known at the time, Prince had all this information in his head

and may have had good sources about the Wiener computer. have known at the time prince had all this information in his head may have had good sources about the wiener computer folks why do you think i titled today's show this can't be happening the hannity thing with the judge i read kimba what i'm like this can't be real this reuters out of house would be fake prince so you're saying to me prince is the subject of a muller investigation after prince went on a radio station and talked about damaging information on a computer that the NYPD knew about and that the Justice Department was trying to threaten and engage in a coercion campaign against the NYPD? All of a sudden, he becomes the target of an investigation by Mueller? Oh, and by the way, the cooperator in it is George Nader? The cooperator in it is George Nader. You may say, well, why would we care about George Nader cooperating? Who's George Nader's attorney?

You remember? George Nader's attorney is the fixer. Remember the fixer? Kathy Rumler. Who's Kathy Rumler? Kathy Rumler. Who's Kathy Rumler? Kathy Rumler was Barack Obama's White House counsel. Kathy Rumler was intimately involved in just about every single Barack Obama controversial potential scandal. The IRS, Benghazi, Solyndra, Rumler was it? Google it.

Rumler, R-U-E-M-M-L-E-R. Kathy Rumler, IRS. Kathy Rumler, Benghazi. Kathy Rumler, Secret Service. Kathy Rumler, Solyndra. Google it. She was the fixer. Now she's representing a guy who set up a meeting between Prince and some big time Russian investor.

She's representing him. The fixer's back. Protect the swamp at all costs. Defend the crown. Defend the crown. You need to say it in almost an authoritative you know horrible english accent i i've read this i i heard that clip and i'm like i i can't believe this it is so obvious what's going on if we had even a remotely semi-transparent and fair media, Joe, this would be the scandal of not only the century. This would be the biggest scandal since we transformed from Australopithecus Africanus into Homo sapiens sapiens.

after the guy who claims to have sources about a cache of horrendous information about the democrats and hillary clinton and about a quid pro quo between the justice department and a a coercion campaign against the mypd just all another coincidence folks now it gets better. Better? Who was at, he does, believe it or not. Who was at the meeting set up by Nader? Remember, Nader's represented, George Nader, the guy who sets up the meeting between Prince and the Russian in the Seychelles. Nader's represented by Obama's attorney. Nader sets this meeting up with a Russian guy

Kirill Dmitriev by the way if I show up dead somewhere get a start a go fund me for my wife I'm just kidding I don't want to be dramatic but this is like this is the kind of freaky deaky stuff I read it I'm like this can't be real who was at the meeting kareel dimitriev who is the ceo of the russian direct investment fund a sovereign wealth fund putin uses to engage in investment activities to the benefit of the russian state kareel dimitriev is this guy. Now, who represented and are principals in a firm that represented the Russia Direct Investment Fund?

Let me read from you from a left-leaning website. By the way, these links will be in the show notes today at the bottom. Subscribe at Bongino.com. I will send them right to your inbox. If not, go to the website.

Read these links. they are killer nader represented by obama's lawyer sets up a meeting between prince and a russian the russian dimitriev karil dimitriev works for the russian direct investment fund here's a quote from a salon.com piece far left website about who represents the russian direct investment fund in his report on the clinton machines ties to saudi arabia isikoff michael isikoff who's a writer at yahoo right now also notes that two of the clinton lobbyist bundlers richard sullivan and dav and David Jones are principals and affirm that until late last year represented the Russia Direct Investment Fund, a sovereign wealth fund co-founded by Vladimir Putin when he was prime minister. Are you freaking kidding me? This is Salon.

This is not conservative review. Breitbartitbart i mean we're more than credible i'm just telling this is not some political this is a left far left salon is like kooky left reporting that two clinton bundlers let's reverse engineer this two clinton bundlers that raise money for the clintons are principals in a firm that represented a Russian fund a Russian fund headed by a CEO Dmitriev who met with a guy who had dangerous information about the Clintons in the Seychelles that was set up by a guy who is now represented by Obama's lawyer. Here, here. I got the hook in my mouth here.

This actually happened. Let me say that again so you don't have to listen to the show twice today. I'm trying to save you the effort. A guy named Eric Prince who has, is on radio publicly. You can hear it yourself. You just heard it on heard on the show stating he has incredibly damning and damaging information on sources

about a a coercion technique by the department of justice to make bad information on the clintons basically go away a guy who says he has negative is being investigated by bob muller for a meeting set up by a guy who's represented by Obama's attorney with a Russian who was represented by two Clinton bundlers. Jeez Louise. Is it? Joe, is this?

Are you getting this? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'm getting it. Now, please explain to me again after I've explained to you the Eminem-Galarov contact, the Sergei Millian contact, the Alexander Downer contact, how this was not a setup

how this was not an operation to frame Trump from the beginning this is all coincidence that everybody who contacted the Trump team or someone in the Trump orbit has a connection to either a Clinton's or the Obama's everyone everyone Alexander Downer I met with has a connection to either Clintons or the Obamas. Everyone. Everyone.

Alexander Downer. Oh, I met with Papadopoulos and I have information. Oh, by the way, I signed a memorandum of understanding transferring $25 million to the Clinton Foundation when I was working for the Australian government. Oh, gee, no conflict of interest there. The Agalarov kid. Hey, Don Jr., we need to set up a meeting about negative information on Hillary with a Russian.

Who shows up? The exact same Russian working for Fusion GPS working for Hillary. Millian, who talks with Papadopoulos and is, by some reports, the founder of the Golden Shower story. Millian. Oh, by the way, his stuff winds up in the dossier

through Steele about the Golden Shower story, and he's connected to Papadopoulos, who started or initiated, according to the new york times the investigation explain to me again how this guy wasn't set up and framed from the start with a straight face do it the guy is represented by obama's lawyer who set this meeting up and he sets the meeting up with a guy who is represented by a firm where two clinton bundlers work this is insane yeah but this actually happened

joe the joe biden information yesterday did joe biden know about this remember the joe the connection on yesterday's show, if you missed it, was the Ukraine connection. This is a different one. Oh, man. Every day I wake up hoping and praying that I get this information across to you in a coherent fashion. And, you know, I get it.

Some of you don't need it explained a couple times within the show, but some do. It's important you understand what we're talking about here. Mueller's investigation, and I'm going to leave it at this because I got other stuff I want to get to. Mueller's investigation, ladies and gentlemen, is a smokescreen. Mueller is the one guy connected deeply enough to the swamp to protect the crown at all costs. Connected deeply enough to the swamp to protect the crown at all costs. Obama's lawyer, Rumler, who's representing the guy that set up this meeting with Prince.

Rumler knows Mueller. Mueller had a role in selecting her for the Enron task force where she worked with Andy Weiss muller's number two on the special counsel muller knows rummler obama's lawyer who's representing the guy who set up this meeting with the guy who has bad information about the clintons they worked with weissman weissman is the number two guy in the special counsel who is ruthlessly targeting Trump. She worked with him. Now she's working to cooperate with Mueller

with a guy with a shady past who set up a meeting with another guy who has information about the Clintons and none of this bothers anyone? Where is the media? My gosh anyone where is the media my gosh where is the you know Woodward and Bernstein of our time these two Woodward who's who's who you know these guys who've Woodward I don't know which one of them they've lost their minds like where are they now we had a break-in at the Watergate all right yes Nixon had to go. But it was a break-in. Do you understand how many

civil rights are being thrown out the window to cover for the Clintons in this? Oh, my gosh. All right. I want to, I got another little bit of a lighter note because these things upset me. I got a really good story.

It's good and bad about education. I think you're going to find interesting. I've been debating when to fit this in, but Matt Palumbo, my resident debunker, gave me a good reason to do it. All right.

I read a really terrific piece the other day in the Wall Street Journal. It was covering a guy in his new book. I've been named Brian Kaplan with a C. Now, I had heard Kaplan before on a podcast I listened to, Econ Talk by Russ Roberts, which is really terrific. It's a weekly, it's not a daily, but it's very good. And he was on Kaplan, and the title of his book is The Case Against Education. Now, I didn't say that wrong. Not the case for

any case. Now, I say that because most of us believe education is a public good, is a personal good. Rarely, if anyone, oh, don't get educated. He's not, by the way, the premise of the book is believe education is a public good um is a personal good is it you know no you rarely if anyone oh don't get educated he's not by the way the premise of the book is not don't get yourself educated it's against more the system than how the system is set up to reward individuals but not reward society at large it is a fascinating piece of work the premise of it being that education right now the system the college system joe is more about signaling than skills and if i'm saying this wrong brian uh while we're promoting your book here please feel free to come on as a guest i'd be happy to do a saturday show with you where we do an interview but his case is that it's about signaling not

skills now i want to give you an interesting analogy I heard him make that blew my mind. Matter of fact, just to show you how powerful this analogy is, when I said this, Joe, to my wife, initially I go, you know, I just listened to a fascinating lecture where the guy was saying that

how the education system, specifically the higher education system in the country is set up to benefit people monetarily but really doesn't benefit anyone's skill development or society in general she goes oh that's crazy education's really great um but i said to her i go paula listen to the analogy the guy gave to show to you that this is about signaling how smart you are not necessarily how smart you are gotcha would you rather joe if you were in a job interview, would you rather have the diploma from an Ivy League university with no skills whatsoever conferred by that diploma in an interview, in a job interview? Or would you rather have a body of really serious skills in that job interview, but no diploma at all from an Ivy League university. I'd rather have the skills.

You'd be wrong because you wouldn't even get in the job. That's the point. I'm actually glad you answered honestly. You would be wrong. Yeah, really. Because you can't even apply for the job without the damn diploma. So you'd never get in the interview. That's the point.

Most people who answer that question see you you know what it is you're in a skills-based business you have to deal with all these complex that when joe the he when you go to apply for a job the point the guy's making is that the diploma not the skills is a signaling device to show that yes you went through the college process you went through you know you were willing to accept the rigors of it every day and to study, but very few people actually believe that the college diploma anymore

confers the actual skills related to the job based on numbers. Now, some do, engineering, medicine, but when you're, I'm not knocking, I was a psychology major, so I'm not knocking people who go to college. I'm just suggesting that some of those skills, my psychology degree was mildly relevant at best to my secret service career earlier and

but not later on in my when i was doing protection his suggestion in the analogy is most people would rather have a sheepskin diploma from harvard understood with no skills at all rather than a body of skills and no diploma from harvard looks good yeah you'll make more money with the damn diploma with no skills at all than you would with a body of skills and a high school diploma only yeah it's a great i was a great and i heard that i go he's right now let me just take the analogy a step further, as he does and Kaplan did. Imagine if you're on an island by yourself. You're on an island in the real world right now. You've been marooned.

We've established that most people would rather have the Harvard diploma and not the skills. True. Because it's worth more to them, right? Mm-hmm. Is it worth more to you, Joe, on an island nobody around you're you're you know tom hanks and castaway you're on your own would you rather have the skills to survive on that island or would you rather have a diploma from harvard that says you have the skills to survive but not having any skills at all what would you rather have i'd rather have the skills

you're darn right because you'll be dead right that's the right answer yes you'd be dead the point is in the real world when it actually matters and it's not a signaling effort to your employer you'd rather have the darn skills because you'd be dead otherwise but when it's the fake world of signaling and and and a new job environment where people use a diploma as a proxy for IQ tests because they don't want to be sued, that it's the diploma, not the skills that matter. That the education, that's why the book is called The Case Against Education, and that a lot of people go to school to get an education, Joe, in college that don't need it, and it's totally not relevant to their lives, and there's a significant social cost to this.

They take on hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. Society subsidizes it through your tax dollars, and they don't need the skills. You don't need to know about 16th century basket weaving. You want to be an electrician. What does it have to do with anything? All it does is the diploma, and why it matters to you. It signals to your employer

that you may be a smart guy or gal. It doesn't signal anything else in most cases. Ironically, that's just stupid. It is stupid. The whole system's stupid. It is. So here's another thing he mentions sorry hit it back away from the mic there he talks about this paradox of crowds this crowd effect which i brought up before on the show months ago i forget what we were talking about at least i'm familiar yeah it's a great analogy how things that work for an individual don't necessarily work collectively or in crowds

so if you're in a movie theater, it benefits you significantly as an individual to stand up to watch the movie because you can see better. Forgetting for a second it's not comfortable to stand. Just assume like someone was giving you like a support and holding you up. You can see better, right, Joe, if you stand up. Yeah.

But that doesn't benefit. So that's good for you. Standing is good for you. But it's not good for the crowd. What's good for you is not good for the gander there. Because if everybody stands up, then nobody can see. He makes this, he uses this, which is a terrific analogy in regards to the education system. How the signal of the diploma, Joe, not the skills.

The signal of the diploma is worth a lot of money to an individual. So they go to college even though they don't need it. A lot of people, not all. They go to college even though they don't need it and it benefits them. But it doesn't benefit all of us

when we all go to college when we don't need it. Now he has data. I love data and I love facts. In case you think he's making this up, he says it's a fascinating little problem we found here. That yes, a college degree, Joe, will significantly benefit your income.

He says, quotes one thing upwards of 10% higher or something per year of education or something like that. Forgive me if I'm getting the numbers wrong. It's a lot more than a high school diploma. But what's fascinating, Joe, is it doesn't benefit national income. Meaning the income of the nation doesn't go up.

So how is that, Joe? How are all these people making more money, but the country isn't? Because that money's coming from other people. The money you're making is coming out of someone else's wallet. So it zeros out money you're making is coming out of someone else's wallet, so it zeroes out. You know who it's coming out of?

The high school graduates that would have applied for the job you applied for with a college degree but didn't need. Is that not... Damn, Brian Kaplan, that's genius. So, again, you're on an island. You're on an island where skills matter not

cheap skin diplomas right it's tom hanks castaway the ability to survive matters whether you have a diploma from college is irrelevant your value is if you can survive and if you have the skills in the fake world we live in now your value is not the skills. It's simply the diploma. So people who have the skills, Joe, to survive, get cut out of job opportunities. Because the job now, because they don't want to be sued by doing IQ tests, just says, oh, you need a college diploma to apply. What, for an administrative assistant job? Yeah, you need a college diploma. For what? It's an administrative.

I'm basically answering the phones maybe doing some light bookkeeping why do i need a college diploma because you do that's why because they don't want to be sued giving it any kind of a test an iq test so they just say to protect themselves you need a college diploma you don't need a college diploma so what happens that forty thousand dollar a year now administrative assistant job in manh. That's what a lot of them pay. They pay not bad. Some of these have 40, sometimes 50. That job is now shut out to people who do have the skills to do it, who don't have a

college diploma. Now you say, well, how does the money come from then? Because then what do they have to go? They have to go work in the McDonald's and fast food and service in lesser paying jobs, even though they have the skills for other jobs because they're shut out because they don't have the signal. The signal is the sheepskin, even though on the island, it doesn't mean squat. Genius. Genius. Genius. Remember the crowd, that paradox of the crowd, right? What's good for one,

one person standing up is not good when everybody does it. So what benefits you to go, and it does, if you go to college, you will make more money. Stand up in the movie theater will benefit you go to college. It will make you more money when everybody goes to college that doesn't need it. And job and employers respond by making college a standard for your application because they can't do IQ tests and other things because they don't want to be sued the whole country suffers because a lot of wasted assets are poured into an education system that educates people in things and skills they don't need to survive on the island if you're on the island you don't need a journalism degree you

need to learn how to start a fire you need to learn how to fish so i haven't read the book to be fair i only heard the econ talk thing and i've heard kaplan i read his interview in the wall street journal but this is a fascinating fascinating premise that i think is worth some serious and he may you know he listen he's not a he's a serious, and he may, you know, listen, he's not a, he's a teacher himself, and he acknowledges the fact that by speaking out against education, he's almost putting himself out of business. But he's honest, and he says,

I'm under no illusion that the public is going to accept my premise. And he does propose solutions, Joe. Vocational schools, you know, which is a good idea, I think, you know, but maybe we should have more Microsoft trains and not worry about a diploma. You're Microsoft trained. Adobe trained people good idea, I think. You know, but maybe we should have more Microsoft trains. Don't worry about a diploma. You're Microsoft trained.

Adobe trained people. What Joe does. Joe works, I don't even know what the hell he does when I send a sound. He winds up cutting up the show so it sounds listenable. Half the time I'm snorting and huffing and puffing and you don't even hear any of that. I don't know how he does it. I know he tried to show me one time. I'm like, forget it.

I have no idea. My wife, who knows, you know, internet and database design, was confused. But maybe that's what we need. Maybe a sound engineer school and more of that stuff. Maybe the market is so set up and skewed toward the education government complex and funding of schools and funding of higher education and funding of student loans that he's under no illusion, according to what I heard, at least by him talking about it, that we're going to break this monopoly anytime soon.

Fascinating premise, though, nonetheless. What do we get? All right. Well, we're a little short on time. Hey, folks, I'll cover this another piece I had tomorrow. But do me a favor. Tune into my NRA TV show tonight, 5.30 p.m. Eastern Time. Don't miss it. I'm going to break this down a little bit more, this Eric Prince thing, and I'm going to have some headlines to show you.
