Starting point is 00:01:16 A great article about Rosenstein's testimony and a couple of gems I picked out. I'm going to give you a little tease of the book today. My book on the Spygate scandal. And this is going to whet your appetite because we found another gem that relates to Friday's show. So you're not going to want to miss that. I'll give you a little feel for what we found out. It's good stuff. All right.
Starting point is 00:01:39 Today's show brought to you a new sponsor, by the way. Ding, ding, ding. This is a great company. They sent me this stuff a couple weeks ago, which is great because it gave me kind of a headstart of swapping the old product I had for the new product. I used to take a different fish oil supplement. And it's interesting. I didn't notice what they told me. They said, you know what, Dan? I was talking to Omax Health. They make some of the purest fish oil out on the market. And they said, go put this stuff in the freezer and watch what happens, the stuff you have now.
Starting point is 00:02:06 They said, you're going to see all the impurities come out. So I was like, nah, you guys are crazy. I went and checked it out. Sure enough, they were right. I was taking a relatively impure fish oil supplement. So I was like, yeah, send me your stuff. It's great stuff. I want to discuss Omega-3s for a minute here because Omax-3, ultra pure, the purest Omega-3 supplement on the market.
Starting point is 00:02:24 It contacted me about sponsoring the podcast a few weeks back. It was great. I spoke to them. And in case you're unaware, omega-3s have been touted as one of the healthiest supplements, but many have questioned whether this fact is too good to be true. I can tell you from experience, it's not. So you guys know that I do my homework on every potential sponsor on the podcast. And if they're talking about Omax 3 and trying their supplements, they are definitely a must

This stuff is, for my arthritis, is key. I'd be lost without it. They can also improve focus and memory, boost cardiovascular health, and more. And you're probably wondering what else makes Omega-3s different, Omax-3 different from other omega-3 supplements on the market. I told you about the filtration, Brad. This is some of the purest stuff out there. You've probably seen some of these supplements at the store, but many of them are top sellers, but they simply don't

Starting point is 00:04:13 Okay. Those Omega 3s are very important. You know. Oh, stuff is awesome. Try it. Put the stuff in the freezer. You just ask any sturgeon. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:19 Yeah. That's a good point. All right. Just quickly on the economic front before I get to the other stuff. So New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, devout leftist who ironically is a millionaire himself. He's a millionaire who doesn't want anyone else to be a millionaire. But devout leftist, newly elected Governor Phil Murphy, he wants to raise taxes and he did. raised the state income tax on people making more than 5 million in the state to 10.75% from 8.9. It was already one of the highest tax states in the union. So it went from 8.97 to 10.75% if you're making over 5 million. He raised the corporate tax on corporations generating over a million from 9% to 11.5%. Now, folks, I'm just asking because from 2012, I'm begging you,
Starting point is 00:05:06 as a matter of fact, because from 2012 to 2016, a net 11.9 billion, almost 12 billion dollars has left the state of New Jersey and a third of that has come to Florida. I'm begging you humbly as your fellow citizen and friend, if you live in New Jersey and you have voted in big government, high tax nonsense, bankrupting your state, your wallet, your companies, your people, your neighbors and everybody else. Please do not move down here to Florida. Please. I'm begging you. Listen, it's a free country.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Do what you want. OK, I love it that we live in a constitutional republic. You're mobile. You can assemble. You can speak. You can practice your religion. That's great. Except for when the liberals don't want you to but i'm just asking you as a friend i love it down here in florida i've been down here three years i i met some great
Starting point is 00:05:52 people at the sunshine summit this weekend um up in kisumi it was awesome please don't come down here and vote that stuff in please you realize what you're escaping is what you brought on yourself. Do not bring it on me and my neighbors too. We have a great economic situation here. Things are going well. We have no state income tax. I get it that you want to come down here to escape the hell you created in New Jersey economically. I get it.
Starting point is 00:06:19 But do not vote that garbage in down here. Now, Joe. One more thing about this before i move on because i get some other stuff i get the pack show today it's fascinating what these liberals are doing because as i've said repeatedly this is the this the absolute stupidity of big government right the free market creates a series of incentives incentives to create businesses and sentence incentives to earn revenue uh for ideas and hard work socialism big government democratic policies as well because they're not exactly the
Starting point is 00:06:54 same thing but big government socialism tries to recreate incentives that already exist in the free market what do i mean by that there's a piece in the Wall Street Journal today, that's where I got this, or it's in the op-ed section about New Jersey. And they're trying to recreate incentives that the market would create themselves, Joe, to lure businesses back to the state of New Jersey. What do I mean by that? Well, if you would have just let people keep their own money,
Starting point is 00:07:18 the incentive would be to open a business and earn your own money. But they can't do that because New Jersey's confiscating ridiculous amounts of people's money and corporate income because of their high tax rate. Joe, they're spending, this is insane, $545 million on corporate welfare. In other words, please come to New Jersey. We'll cut your taxes specifically instead of cutting taxes for everyone. Yet they're hiking taxes and the hike in the corporate tax, Joe, get a load of this,
Starting point is 00:07:47 is supposed to generate 440 million. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Time out. Time out. Math time. Math time. Ding, ding, ding. Yeah. So you're hiking a tax, the corporate tax you're expecting to generate, which it won't because companies are going to leave now, $440 million in additional revenue for you to suck out of the economy because you're a big government, basically tyrant trying to take people's money. You think it'll raise $440 million and then you're returning it through corporate welfare
Starting point is 00:08:21 to the tune of $545 million, which is $100 million more than you cut. Why don't you just let the free market work for itself and let it create its own incentives for people to open their own businesses and earn revenue you're giving back to them through the tax code? I don't know. I'm just asking. Now, having said that, gosh, I've read this story. I'm like, gosh, don't move down here. Please don't come down here. Go somewhere else. New York, Connecticut. They've already created their own cesspool of big government.
Starting point is 00:08:50 We're okay down here in Florida. Don't go to Texas either. No. Matter of fact, stay in California, New York, and New Jersey. I'm just asking. Again, unlike you guys, I do believe in liberty and freedom and the freedom to be mobile. But I'm just begging you, please stay in those
Starting point is 00:09:08 areas if you're going to vote that stuff in somewhere else. We're good. Go to Maryland by Armacost. Joe's in Arnold. Move next door to him. Joe's like, don't come by me. Maryland's already a lot. Done. Man, we need that. I wish we still had that trouble.
Starting point is 00:09:26 We cycled through so many drops. The trading place is, yeah. Yeah. We don't need no job turkeys this close to Thanksgiving. Yeah. Oh, man. Don't come down here and do that. Now, secondly, I was on Fox & Friends this morning, as I do every morning at 6.30 a.m. If you ever want to check it out.
Starting point is 00:09:44 And apparently millennials seem to think socialism is the way to go in the future. Socialism is gaining popularity. Now, I said that this morning, what I've said on Twitter repeatedly, that socialism is basically for idiots, for people who don't know what socialism is. And a couple people responded back and said, no, we're talking about democratic socialism. No, Joe, how many times are we going to have to do this show? Now, there is no such difference, no difference whatsoever between democratic socialism and socialism because there's no such thing as democratic socialism.
Starting point is 00:10:18 It doesn't exist. Socialism is the government confiscation of the means of production. In other words, the government owns the factories, the government owns the farms, the government owns the service industries, and the government confiscation of the means of production in other words the government owns the factories the government owns the farms the government owns the service industries and the government owns you who you vote for in a quote democratic socialist system is irrelevant because they take your stuff democratic socialism is a myth there is no such thing either the government owns the means of production in socialism or it doesn't. If it doesn't, it is not socialism. Democratic socialism is a myth. Oh, it exists in Scandinavian countries. That is not socialism. Listen, it's horrible big government policies. The government does confiscate a lot of the wealth of people up to 50%. It is not socialism. The government does not own the means of production. Venezuela is
Starting point is 00:11:11 socialism, where the government's confiscated the oil companies, a lot of the supermarkets and other things. That is socialism. If you don't know what you're talking about, if you keep talking about democratic socialism, there is no such thing. It doesn't exist. Now, proving to you that the Democrats don't even know what the difference is between democratic socialism and socialism and the Democrat Party, because there isn't any. There's no democratic socialism. It doesn't exist. It's nonsense. Listen to this cut quick. This is a hat tip, Washington Free Beacon to put this together. This is Chris Matthews questioning some prominent Democrats about the difference between socialism and the Democrat Party. And they don't even know they can't answer the question. Play that. What's the difference between a socialist and a Democrat?
Starting point is 00:11:57 Well, you know, I. Oh, I. And more socialist like Bernie Sanders. What's the difference between being a Democrat and being a Republican? Well, what's. You have to ask. We'll see. I'm asking you. It depends how you define each one, doesn't it? You're the chairman of the Democratic Party. Tell me the difference between you and a socialist.
Starting point is 00:12:11 I wouldn't like somebody calling me a socialist. But I'm not one. Well, you do it. Well, I'm not going to get into it. The relevant debate that we'll be having is, what's the difference between a Democrat and a Republican? I think there's a huge difference. I am a progressive Democrat.
Starting point is 00:12:22 I'm a progressive Democrat who likes Democrats. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the chair of the Democratic Party, wanted to ask my question. Hillary Rodham, you guys are well-schooled. Would it be helpful to change the name of the Democratic Party to the Social Democratic Party? Would that help improve the definition for everybody? I think we're happy with our present name.
Starting point is 00:12:38 You see? Now, ladies and gentlemen, it's funny. I love that cut. I'm going to use that tonight in the NRA TV show, too. That is a wonderful cut because here's the problem. Here's what's going on. In case you don't understand the tactics, I'm here to explain it to you. There's a reason they will not answer. strategists have conflated the term socialism and democratic socialism so often that people believe socialism believes big government programs and things like free college, free, I'm using the air quotes here, free college and free healthcare. That is not what socialism is. Those are big government programs. Those are poorly designed government programs.
Starting point is 00:13:26 That is not socialism, at least in the United States, where government does not own the means of production. They don't own the hospitals. They don't own the doctors. Matter of fact, even in the United Kingdom with the National Health Service, again, it's a single-payer system. It's poorly designed. It's a ration system, but it isn't in fact socialism. The doctors aren't owned. Now they will be paid by the state, but they aren't owned by the state. They're free to do whatever they want in a socialist system. The government owns the means of production.
Starting point is 00:13:56 You work for the government. The government pays you. The joke about socialism is we pretended to work and they pretended to pay us. The conflation of the two over time has confused even democrats folks if i'm confusing you stop for a second and pause it's important you get this you're good the conflation over time of big government liberalism and socialism has led a lot of millennials to believe that they are the same thing. The conflation over time has now caused the problem for Democrat politicians, some of which you heard in there, who are afraid now to renounce socialism
Starting point is 00:14:34 because they think, Joe, that people will confuse it and they'll think, the voters will think they're renouncing big government. That they're renouncing big government, free healthcare, and all that other stuff. Because they've conflated the two so often. So they're in a quandary now. Because Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and Debbie Wasserman Schultz, these are not stupid people. You may disagree with their politics, I certainly do.
Starting point is 00:15:00 But they're not dumb. I'm going to explain this again, so give me a second because this is really important. They understand they're in a little bit of a damned if I do, damned if I don't. I can't say to answer Chris Matthews' question, and listen, hat tip to
Starting point is 00:15:17 Matthews, by the way, for doing that. I mean, he's not a he's a pretty biased guy to the left, but I think he understands the damage too here. Damned if I do, damned if I don't. If I come out on the record and say the Democratic Party in the United States, the Democrats are now socialist, I understand I'm endorsing the government theft of people's property, of people's farms, of people's businesses. I also understand that I'm associating myself with a system of government that has killed
Starting point is 00:15:44 hundreds of millions of people. These aren't stupid people. They understand the history of socialism. The government takes your stuff. Eventually people stop working because they don't own it anymore. The government then comes in and forces you to work. If you don't work, they kill you. That's why the government has starved people and killed hundreds of thousands of people under socialism.
Starting point is 00:16:01 The Democrats know that. They also know over time that people like Bernie Sanders, the Ocasio-Cortez, a woman who just won in Democrat 14, the congressional district primary, they know over time the Elizabeth Warren types, people who have spoken glowingly, Joe, about socialism have propagandized, excuse meized a younger generation of people to believe that big government is socialism. So now, the damned if they don't is, well, if I talk down socialism, I'm going to have to tell people I've been lying to them the whole time. That socialism isn't, in fact, what we're doing here. What we're doing here is big government, nanny state stuff. They can't. They put themselves in a rhetorical corner. They're locked in. Folks, this is important, critical stuff, because you see it on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Go tweet about how nasty socialism is and watch. Just take the Dan Bongino test. Tweet about how socialism sucks on Twitter, right? Watch how many young people, we're not talking about socialism. We're talking about democratic socialism. There's no such thing. There is no such thing. This was a deliberate strategy by radicals in the Democratic Party to associate the word socialism to dumb you down with big government free stuff. It is not the same thing. Now other people, more moderates in the Democrat Party, I mean, forgive me for saying that,
Starting point is 00:17:26 but people who are not insane like Chuck Schumer, now understand that that constant conflation of the two, socialism and big government policies, is causing him a real problem. Because he can't come out and say he's a socialist, because he's not. He's a big government nanny stater. This has caused him a real issue now.
Starting point is 00:17:46 And now that you have people like Ocasio-Cortez, the woman who won the primary in Democrat 14, openly advocating for socialism. Now Democrats are like, oh, man, what do we do now? We're going to keep getting this question if we're socialists. We can't say we're socialists. That thing's killed hundreds of millions of people. How are we going to say that? We'll look like complete radicals. Yeah, but the radicals are the ones telling people that socialism is democratic.
Starting point is 00:18:10 What do we do? You get what I'm saying, Joe? Yeah, between a rock and a hard place, I'd say. Between a rock and a hard place. The radicals in the party have convinced young kids that socialism is free stuff. It's not. It's death and destruction. That's what socialism is.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Socialism is theft. It is not free stuff. It's not. It's death and destruction. That's what socialism is. Socialism is theft. It is not free stuff. You have been lied to by a bunch of radical kooks in the Democrat Party who are trying to get you to believe that socialism equals free college. Generations of doing that to people have younger people and some
Starting point is 00:18:40 dopey older folks too have no excuse for being useful idiots in their 30s and 40s. read a book actually believe socialism means free health care and free college it means theft and destruction that's what it means that's why democrats can't answer the question and when i appeared on fox and friends this morning i told you some democrats are starting to panic i want i'd listen listen to in a panic. Listen. Listen to me on this. I get their emails. I get their emails. I read their tweets.
Starting point is 00:19:10 There are a lot of Democrats concerned with winning elections that are starting to worry a little bit that this constant talk now between Bernie and this Ocasio-Cortez and this socialism bent that they're going to be in a lot of trouble in the elections because all Republicans have to come out and say socialism. Oh, you mean the theft of
Starting point is 00:19:29 your property? And by the way, death and destruction, if you don't hand it over, that's what socialism is. The historical record is crystal clear on this, ladies and gentlemen. Remember, one last, I'm sorry. This is really critical stuff though. Democratic socialism does not exist. Socialism, period, full stop here, is the government confiscation of the means of production. There is nothing democratic about the theft of your property and your business and the redistribution of its assets by the government. Nothing. Democratic socialism is a myth. There is no such thing.
Starting point is 00:20:08 There is the big government in any state, and then there is socialism. They are not the same thing. And the Democrats are in a real pickle right now because of this. Mark my words on this. They don't know what to do. All right, I want to get to...
Starting point is 00:20:20 I found a real gem. You're going to be blown away by this in my book. It relates to last Friday and Julian Assange, WikiLeaks, Deripaska. Yeah, Joe, this is good. I know you're going to like it. Before we get to that, today's show is also brought to you by our buddies at We The People Holsters. We love We The People Holsters. If you haven't tried them out yet, they are – I've had a lot of holsters.
Starting point is 00:20:43 I've had pancake holsters, in-the-pants holsters, pocket holsters, ankle holsters, even out-of a lot of holsters. I've had pancake holsters, in the pants holsters, pocket holsters, ankle holsters, even at a shoulder holster once those things are... I'm not a big fan of those, by the way. But this is one of the best holsters out there. This is a company that's with us. They're big supporters of the Second Amendment, big supporters of our civil liberties, and I really like having them on board. We the People Holsters. We the People Holsters, they make custom-made holsters. They design their own holsters in-house. They don't use these garbage third-party molds. They build them right there in Las Vegas, and they cut every mold to fit each gun perfectly and precisely. You get that click when you put your firearm in there. It's a beautiful thing. You know it's in there
Starting point is 00:21:17 securely. You can hear it. We update designs that change. They add new designs every month. This lets them stay up to date on new models that come out. They build their own in-house. They measure every micromillimeter of the firearm before they put that holster in circulation. You can adjust the cant. You can adjust the ride on it. They designed their own clip. It has four holes and it matches up with the four on the holster. So you can not only adjust the cant, but you can adjust the ride as well. The tension's adjustable. You just turn a screw simple as that more tension less tension keep the firearm in a little tighter a little bit looser it's right all up to you adjustable tension can't beat it custom printed designs in the house they have the thin blue line
Starting point is 00:21:57 thin red line a constitution camo they have designs for women an american flag they have more coming out each month get a load of this the only $34, but every holster comes with a lifetime guarantee.

Starting point is 00:22:47 So last week I talked about on Friday's show. If you missed it, please listen. It's super important now. And this will make a lot more sense. I am starting to uncover stuff in my book about Spygate that's really blowing me away. And when I connect it to prior incidents and names I've heard before. I'm always, as a matter of fact, I was talking to my co-author, Denise McAllister, this weekend. I'm like, darn, I'm like, that is a gem.
Starting point is 00:23:14 I'm like, do you even know what you have there? Because she picked this thing out. I was like, this is good. Now, Friday, I talked about, I always say, remember the names. Remember the names, remember the names. The best advice I ever got working criminal cases is a secret service agent. And when I say remember them, I mean, if you're interested in the case, you have to memorize the names. You can't just have them on like an index card, because if you memorize them and you see them creep up later, you're going to start making connections nobody else can. My best advice to young agents out there joining the federal government, remember to memorize those names. You never know when they're going to creep up on you again. So last Friday, we were talking about Oleg Deripaska, who is a Russian oligarch worth a whole lot of money. Oleg Deripaska is also well-connected to Vladimir Putin. They're friendly. They know each other well. Friday, I had told you that in a really suspicious breaking news story that broke a bit broke a week ago but I wanted to kind of I don't like to give
Starting point is 00:24:12 you stuff before I can check it out and make sure that the stuff is good for obvious reasons my credibility matters we found out that and the articles in the show notes on Friday Daraipaska, he has this lobbyist who works for him, this guy named Adam Waldman, and that this lobbyist had been visiting Julian Assange in the Ecuadorian embassy, of course, the WikiLeaks guy. Now, what I found awfully suspicious about that is this lobbyist who's working for Deripaska, a Russian, with deep ties to Putin, right? That Deripaska's lobbyist is also the same guy who was trying to connect Democrat staffers still working to get fake information on Trump,
Starting point is 00:24:59 still working with Fusion GPS. He was trying to connect Democrat senators to a Democrat senator now on the committee investigating this thing, Mark Warner. In other words, this lobbyist seems to be connected to Fusion GPS,
Starting point is 00:25:12 to Russian, and now WikiLeaks. And remember, it was WikiLeaks and the leak of the DNC emails that started this whole thing. Don't let me lose you here, okay? The DNC emails
Starting point is 00:25:24 that were leaked from WikiLeaks, the whole theory was that that was done in conjunction with the Trump campaign after the Russians stole them. Now, the whole nail in the coffin of this theory, well, it could be, is Assange, who runs WikiLeaks, has been saying the whole time
Starting point is 00:25:43 that the Russians weren't his source. Now, if the Russians were not his source for the stolen emails, the DNC emails that WikiLeaks got you, then the whole theory of Russian collusion is done. Guys, ladies, please understand what I'm telling you. I said this on Friday.
Starting point is 00:26:00 I'll say it again because it's important for this thing we found out. If that is in fact true and the Russians are not the source for the DNC emails, the entire Trump collusion case is garbage. It's meaningless. It means nothing. Zippo zilchnada. The Russians could not have possibly colluded with the Trump team
Starting point is 00:26:21 to get the DNC emails out there to hurt the Trump team if the Russians didn't hack the email, which Assange has been. I'm not saying I trust Assange, Joe. I'm just saying he has been crystal clear from day one and has never wavered, Assange, that the Russians were not his source for the emails. I know there are a lot of theories out there. I get it. I get your emails.
Starting point is 00:26:43 I don't put stuff. Please understand, folks. I will not put anything out there until I am almost positive we can confirm it or the evidence is then overwhelming. I get it. I've heard your emails. I'm not there. I'm not there. Okay.
Starting point is 00:26:59 You know what I'm talking about? We don't know the source of the DNC emails or the source of the hack. The FBI never went in and analyzed the DNC computers. The Democratic National Committee wouldn't let them. Very suspicious. I say that because the lobbyists for Deripaska, this guy who knows this Russian oligarch, visited Assange in the Ecuadorian embassy nine times. What the heck are they talking about?
Starting point is 00:27:29 Does Assange know something? Does Assange know who really stole the DNC emails? If he does, why is Waldman going over there? Why is Waldman going over there? He's representing a Russian oligarch. over there? Why is Waldman going over there? He's representing a Russian oligarch. Now, let me read you a little something from my book here. I'm going to give you a preview. You're not going to get anywhere else. The book is pretty much done, by the way. Well, it is done. We're just going through some contractual stuff and some reading and some edits and stuff.
Starting point is 00:28:02 But here's from one of the pages in the book on Deripaska. One of those names we've seen before and could call into question the origins of the information in Steele's dossier. We're talking about, this is the Deripaska chapter. According to the New Yorker, some of Orbis' purported clients, now who's Orbis? Orbis is Christopher Stopher steel's company follow me here this is critical stuff this is crazy christopher steel the guy who's working for the author of the dossier by the way christopher steel who drew up the dossier is working for
Starting point is 00:28:39 fusion gps his company is orbis some of orbis' purported clients, such as a major Western oil company, are conventional corporations. Others are controversial, including a London law firm representing the interests of Oleg Deripaska, the billionaire Victor Nice of Russia's aluminum wars, a notoriously violent battle. He has been described as Putin's favorite oligarch. It goes on. Steele's possible financial ties to Deripaska recently prompted Senator Chuck Grassley to demand more information from the London law firm. If a financial trail between Deripaska and Orbis can be established, it is likely to raise even more questions about Steele because Deripaska is already figured in the Russia investigation in unsavory light.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Now, ours. This is our book. That was a quote. lobbyist Adam Waldman and a London-based lawyer named Paul Hauser, allegedly working for Arbus, although he has refused to answer questions submitted to him by Senator Chuck Grassley. Folks, what the heck? Follow me here. Yeah. You have a Russian oligarch with direct ties to Putin.
Starting point is 00:30:01 Yep. direct ties to Putin. Now we know a London law firm that represents him is also a client of Christopher Steele. The same guy who wrote the dossier? We now know a law firm working with
Starting point is 00:30:17 Deripaska is working with Steele. We know a lobbyist working with Deripaska is working with Adam Waldman. A lobbyist, excuse me, Adam Waldman working with Deripaska is working to coordinate all of this. He's been emailing, he's been mentioned in texts to Mark Warner, this Democrat senator. Waldman's been visiting Julian Assange in the embassy. I'll put this together for you in a second because you're probably thinking alright I'm a little confused what are you trying to get at here
Starting point is 00:30:46 let me just throw another angle at you if you read the dossier which I have many times the dossier is actually a series of memos if you read the memos in the dossier Joe
Starting point is 00:31:03 one of them talks about a Source D. That Source D, we believe is Sergei Millian. Sergei Millian was supposed to be the source of the golden shower story. In other words, Trump did those things in the hotel room. It's a family-friendly show,
Starting point is 00:31:22 but supposedly the prostitutes were there and did that stuff and defiled the bed. It was all it was all nonsense of course um it's garbage but that that came from source d that's believed to be million let me throw you a wicked slider right now million goes to this saint petersburg international Economic Forum right around the time this information comes out, who do you think sat that economic forum with him? Deripaska. Folks, what I'm trying to suggest to you
Starting point is 00:31:58 is, is it possible, is it possible that Deripaska, friends with Putin, connected to Putin, may have been playing the Democrats for fools the entire time by being somehow involved in feeding false information to the Democrats' political campaign apparatus through Hillary Clinton to throw chaos into this entire election, and the Democrats got played completely? You know what? Let me take that back. They didn't get played. They got played willingly. They were looking for negative information on Trump, and that's exactly what they got.
Starting point is 00:32:39 But is it possible that Deripaska, who now knows Waldmanman and knows, obviously, lawyers in this law firm working, you know, working with this guy, Waldman, and working with Steele. This guy's at the center of the whole thing. Why is this a big deal? This is a big deal because it opens up the distinct possibility, Joe, that the Russians, basically the Clintons, bought fake information
Starting point is 00:33:06 from Russia to overthrow the election. Oh! You know what? You understand the bombshell that is? That the information they got was laundered through Steele, a British intelligence agent, to make it look like it was, oh, it was respectable. It was from a friend of ours, a British intelligence agent who had worked with the FBI before. And he had, Christopher Steele had done some work for the
Starting point is 00:33:30 FBI. But as Andy McCarthy points out, this is critical, absolutely critical. Andy McCarthy at National Review, your information is only as robust as the information you can vouch for, not from someone else. There is no third party verification here, Joe. In other words, if I get information from Joe about a crime he witnessed, that's fine. And Joe's worked for me before. And Joe comes in and says,
Starting point is 00:33:56 hey, I saw my neighbor next door. He's been bringing pallets of cash in his house. And Joe's worked for us before as an informant and he's reputable. We can use that. But there is no process to authenticate information Joe gets from someone else. In other words, if Joe says, hey, I heard from a guy who heard from a guy that he has a neighbor moving pallets of cash inside the house,
Starting point is 00:34:21 we have to go verify that independently. There's no vicarious credibility there none it has to be joe folks please tell me this makes sense do you understand now what's happening there's a possibility here a distinct possibility deripaska may have been involved with putin to generate and their intel community in Russia, generating fake information on Trump to sow chaos in the election. The information was probably laundered. Now, was it laundered through Steele? There's a possibility there.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Steele already has relationships with Deripaska. Steele's company has as a client this London law firm working with Deripaska. Deripaska has as a client this London law firm working with Deripaska. Deripaska has as a client a lobbyist who's already connected to staffers on the Democrat side. Now all of a sudden when the story starts to fall apart, mysteriously this lobbyist starts going to Ecuador to talk to Assange. Hey, that information about where you got the emails. Shhh. But they came from the Russians. Assange is saying, no, they didn't. What is this lobbyist doing over there? Now we find out that one of the sources in the dossier
Starting point is 00:35:38 to source D about the infamous golden shower story. He was at this economic forum right around the same time these allegations surfaced. Who was he at the economic forum with? Deripaska! The Russians played these idiots for fools the whole time. Played them for fools. Now it's all falling apart.
Starting point is 00:36:01 Listen, guys, ladies, this was a win-win for them. Joe. Right, yeah. It was a win for them if hillary wins why it discredits trump forever present uh prevents him from running again in 2020 if hillary loses it discredits the trump presidency and creates a path for impeachment when rosenstein appoints the special counsel later which democrats were going to push for from the start this was a win-win they never
Starting point is 00:36:25 thought this was going to be uncovered and when i say uncovered this is what i'm talking about i'm talking about two things here and i'm going to move on i got i got a lot of stuff to get to i'm sorry but uh i it's for spending a lot of time on this i don't like to repeat friday's stuff but it was so critical friday's information they are trying to keep covered. It's now clear as day to me. Two things. Item number one, who stole the DNC emails? God forbid that isn't the Russians, folks. Do you know how many media liberal Democrat party types are going to be humiliated publicly? Wait, your whole story was the Russians stole the emails and gave them to the Trump team or worked with the Trump team. The Russians didn't
Starting point is 00:37:10 steal the emails. Oh, okay. Moving on. Thank you. Secondly, the source of the information we were always told was Christopher Steele. He's a reliable former British spy. He's worked with the FBI before. If the source of that information, God forbid, was not Christopher Steele, he's a reliable former British spy. He's worked with the FBI before. If the source of that information, God forbid, was not Christopher Steele, but were in fact Russians working with Putin to sow disinformation in the United States, then the real collusion, Joe, was between who? The Democrats and the Russians the whole time. Not only will we have been lied to about the whole hack, the hack stories nonsense, but we will have been lied to about collusion. There was
Starting point is 00:37:50 collusion with the Democrats. This is bombshell stuff. Wait till you read the chapter on Deripaska in the book. You're going to be... By the way, we're pretty much done with the manuscript. This is a treatise on Spygate. Joe, I would not steer you wrong.
Starting point is 00:38:08 Listen, we have put a ton of work into this. You will read this book. It's about 80,000 words. It's a healthy-sized book. You can get through it in a couple days if you're really fired to it. There is no stone unturned in this thing. I'm not just promo. It's not even out yet on Amazon.
Starting point is 00:38:26 There's no reason for me to do that yet. They tell you, matter of fact, not to do that. I'm just telling you, haven't read through it. You will understand entirely that this was a scam. This was an entrapment scam. It is clear as day. Source D, Millian, was in the same place as Deripaska, the source of these stories.
Starting point is 00:38:43 The source of these stories may have been the Russians the whole time. My gosh. We are getting, you know, as we used to say in Queens, you're getting worked, man. You are getting worked over. Gosh, don't believe this. This is the stupidest, strong with some of these people. All right.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Can I just take a quick shot here at Mitt Romney? What is wrong with this guy? I don't want to spend. What is wrong with some of these people. All right. Can I just take a quick shot here at Mitt Romney? What is wrong with this guy? I don't want to spend... What is wrong with Romney? Romney now wins the runoff for the Senate seat in Utah. And Romney, like a complete turncoat, immediately, they ask him about the Russia probe, which everybody knows is a scam. And Romney's like, oh, it's totally appropriate.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Totally appropriate. Russia probe. Totally appropriate. Russia probe. Totally appropriate. Then we have Romney again. They ask him if they'll endorse Trump. Well, I'm not ready to endorse him. This guy just endorsed you. It's like a common courtesy.
Starting point is 00:39:34 Romney, this guy is going to be a disaster, folks. I'm sorry. I wish Kennedy, the other guy, would have won. Really. Romney's going to be a mess. Watch. Next thing you know, he'll be the head of the national republican senatorial committee and uh he'll be raising money um to knock off anyone who's even remotely pro-trump in the senate this is gonna be a disaster i'm serious this is gonna be a disaster romney i can see it already the way this guy. Romney is about Romney and Romney alone.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Almost embarrassed that I voted for this guy. We're better off with Obama. I mean, at least Obama gave us Trump later on. He's terrible. I'm sorry, Joe. He's terrible. At least the failures of Barack Obama opened people's eyes to the possibility of something better with Trump. What is Romney doing? Totally appropriate. What is Romney doing? Totally appropriate.
Starting point is 00:40:28 It is. The Russia probe is totally appropriate. It's been two years. All we have is evidence of entrapment, collusion by the Democrats. Totally appropriate. I'm not ready to endorse. He's probably going to run for president himself. One more quickie, too, by the way, before I get to this other meat and potato story that i'm
Starting point is 00:40:45 going to dig into a bit narrative buster big time media narrative buster trump's approval rating with democrats is up 10 points up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up up movie not down joe joe we've been told by the media because they know everything that the childhood uh the immigration policies at the border the separations and and zero tolerance this was going to destroy trump with the hispanic vote joe oh destroy it was over i have a breitbart article by john nolte up in the show notes please check it out trump's approval hispanics up 10 points wrong again media types hispanic voters are not automatons my mother-in-law my wife are hispanic they are trump supporters they support strong immigration policies enforcement on the enforcement side they're not robots they're not the borg from star trek wake up i have that article to show notes check that out
Starting point is 00:41:51 hey um a couple more quick news things too i'm so i'm sorry the weekends we uh gosh there's so much to get to mexican presidential election um amlo one. Big problems for us, folks. This guy is a socialist. He says he's a reform socialist. He's not. I think we're going to have big problems down south right now of our border with Mexico. I know President Trump congratulated him this morning. This guy, if he starts nationalizing industries, you could have another Venezuela on your southern borders.
Starting point is 00:42:23 And this could be a big, big problem. You think we have an immigration problem now ask Colombia the country what it's like with all the Venezuelans pouring across the border to escape socialism so uh big issue there and I haven't addressed it yet in the show uh you're probably wondering why the Michael Cohen revelations that Trump's lawyer spoke to George Stephanopoulos. His comments seem to be leaning towards the fact that he's looking at cooperating with Mueller. Guys, ladies, I warned you about this. Joe, did I not say this?
Starting point is 00:42:55 Yeah. Three months ago. Yeah, yeah. Fire Mueller. I said, oh, you can't fire Mueller and be impeached. He's going to be impeached anyway if they lose the House. Now it's too late. I warned you all that if you put a traffic cop
Starting point is 00:43:10 behind any American citizen 24 hours a day, seven days a week, everybody's going to be at some point given a ticket for blowing a stop sign because they rolled and didn't fully stop. The whole purpose of the Mueller probe was to cover up the Clinton investigation, to cover up the misdeeds of Justice Department FBI officials in the Clinton
Starting point is 00:43:31 investigation, and to constantly keep the attention on the prosecution of Donald Trump for a fictitious Russian collusion scandal that didn't happen, as I just explained to you. No need to repeat it. That is the only purpose. The Mueller probe, guys, ladies, the Mueller probe is not investigating Russian collusion because there is none. The Mueller probe is investigating the Donald Trump team and the Donald Trump presidency. The only purpose of it is to keep the heat on them. Now, it appears they probably flipped his lawyer by going after his lawyer. I've said it over and over again. They should have fired this guy months ago. You watch what you're going to get now. If Donald Trump paid
Starting point is 00:44:09 $99.99 in taxes in 1999, and he should have paid $100, Donald Trump or someone on his team is going to get nailed for tax evasion. You may say, he's got it coming, man. He's a criminal. Really? You want that attention on you, knucklehead? How about we sick Bob Mueller on you next? Huh? How do you like that? Oh, five years ago, you had an off the books nanny in your house? Oh, boy. Ladies and gentlemen, the whole purpose of this thing was Russian collusion, allegedly. It's not. The purpose was to nail Trump. And I said it months ago, they should have fired this guy
Starting point is 00:44:48 because this investigation is out of control. You watch what's going to happen. This Cohen thing is a disaster. And the left loves it because the left has totally forfeited the idea of blind justice. The left wants blind justice towards the Clinton Foundation, the Clinton speaking fees,
Starting point is 00:45:08 the influence operation designed to influence the Clintons, Uranium One, the email investigation. They don't want to see any of that stuff. Hard evidence of criminality. They don't want to see any of that. But the blindfold comes off when it's the Trump team. Oh, no, now we got him. Cohen's going to flip. What's he going to flip on? What's he going to flip on?
Starting point is 00:45:28 Paying off a porn star? Who cares at this point? I warned you. You said I was nuts. I still have the emails. Dan, you can't call for Mueller to be fired. It'd be a political disaster. Yeah? Political disaster, you think? Wait till Mueller to be fired. It'd be a political disaster. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:45:45 Political disaster, you think? Wait till you see the political disaster coming now. You had a cop following you 24 hours a day. You'd be locked up too for making a right on red somewhere. I warned you, folks. This Mueller probe is a scam. It's always been a scam. Cohen thing is a complete debacle.
Starting point is 00:46:09 Really, this is not going to get any better. And listen, Libs, I don't really need your dopey emails either. If I sick Bob Mueller on you looking at it, I promise every one of you would be in jail. For a lot worse, by the way, than what may, i'm not even saying they have it i don't know i'm just telling you this is a disaster this was supposed to be about russian collusion that doesn't exist all right the rosenstein thing all right before i get to that uh dynatrap i'm getting a lot of really great feedback about dynatrap by the way it's uh it's the real deal i told you you will not have an insect anywhere near your home

A couple of great pieces at the show notes today. One of them is by, I believe it's at Jeff Carlson at The Market's Work. It's really, really good. I also have some pieces about socialism, some stuff you should check out,
Starting point is 00:48:21 how even some so-called moderate Democrats are now starting to get a little afraid of the socialism label while others are embracing it thinking it's a political winner which it's not uh but it's a great piece in the market's work about rosenstein and rosenstein's testimony last week rosenstein actually i should say his name right rosenstein's testimony last week up on the hill it was i thought it was horrible we covered it last week i thought he came off as cocky I thought he came off as arrogant. He didn't come off like a public servant. He came off like a guy who has a vendetta. It was terrible. I think Rosenstein should be fired. I think he should have been fired a long time ago. But there's an interesting exchange here that I want to cover. So from the markets work piece, Rosenstein's talking to
Starting point is 00:49:09 Representative Matt Gaetz from the panhandle of Florida. He's a conservative Republican. And Gaetz is asking him about the FISA warrant that he signed. The FISA warrant dated late June, I think it's June 29th, right around there of 2017. Remember folks, there were four FISA warrant dated late June, I think it's June 29th, right around there, of 2017. Remember, folks, there were four FISA warrants, Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court warrants, to spy on members of the Trump team. Four. Not just one. The last one was signed by Rosenstein.
Starting point is 00:49:45 Now, he's asking him about it, and there's a key line in this. I don't want you to forget. Here's the text of it. This is Rosenstein talking. This is all in the article in the show notes at the markets work. Rosenstein says, he asked him about if he's basically read the FISA applications. So this is one of Rosenstein's responses here. My responsibility at the time was to approve the filing of FISA applications because only three people in the department were authorized to be the final sign-off. We sit down with a team of attorneys from the DOJ, all of whom review that, and they provide a briefing for us about what's in it, what's in the FISA orders he's talking about.
Starting point is 00:50:19 I've reviewed that one, talking about the one he signed, in some detail. This is important here. reviewed that one talking about the one he signed in some detail this is important here and i can tell you that the information that's public about that the fisa application that is doesn't match with what my understanding of the one that i signed whoa doggies i'll explain this to you in a second i think it's appropriate to let the inspector general complete that investigation in bold. These are serious allegations. I do not do the investigations. I'm not the affiant. I'm reviewing the finished product. If the inspector general finds I did something wrong, I'll respect that judgment, but I think it's highly, highly unlikely. Great, great, great poll by the author of this piece. What's going on there, Joe? Rosenstein's under oath. Now, having been a federal agent,
Starting point is 00:51:16 I want to explain to you a couple of things here. The affiant, what is the affiant? What is Rosenstein referring to? When you go to court and you raise your right hand in court, there's someone that swears to the facts inside that document that they are the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God. In other words, you are not lying about that information. When I would go to court to get a complaint against someone to get a search warrant, you would have to raise your right hand and you would do that. You would swear in front of the judge that the information you have is the truth. That's who the affiant is. Why is Rosenstein adamant in his response to Gates about the FISA warrant he signed that, quote, I'm not the affiant. Another quote, these are serious allegations.
Starting point is 00:52:06 This doesn't match what I was told. Wow. What do you think Rosenstein is saying? Well, he can only be saying one of two things. Either he's saying the leaks to the press about what's in that FISA warrant are false, which I doubt because some of the people who have seen some of the applications, who are members of Congress, I'm not saying they're the ones leaking anything, but there's been some information in some of the House reports.
Starting point is 00:52:41 I would be astonished right now if the the leaks are i think what he's saying is he was lied to you know what that means that right that's what i got now the author of the piece has a little bit of a different take and i encourage you to read it i think it's all fair but i remember rosenstein's under oath here i think think Rosenstein is throwing the FBI under the bus here. And you know what? Forgive me. I missed it on Friday and the Thursday show. We had so much going on.
Starting point is 00:53:13 It's tough to compartmentalize all this stuff and get you the key takeaways. He is not the affiant. When you go to court as a federal agent and you swear, you're the one swearing to the fact. Why is that? Do you guys and ladies understand this? i'm not explaining it well forgive me i've done this many many times the investigator is the one who investigates and gathers the facts to present to the prosecutor who then legally prosecutes the case the lawyers in the department of justice
Starting point is 00:53:42 assistant united states attorneys rod rosenstein anyone else they are not investigators case. The lawyers in the Department of Justice, Assistant United States Attorneys, Rod Rosenstein, anyone else, they are not investigators. Under any circumstances, they do not investigate the case. They are not out there on the street. They are not interviewing people. They are not putting the facts together. The agents do that. The agents of the government, the FBI agents, the Secret Service agents, whoever they are, they're the ones that bring those sets of facts to the prosecutor. Now, you have to swear those facts are true. If those facts are true, it's the prosecutor that reads them. This is practically how it works. Says to the agent, okay, I think you have enough here for probable cause. We're going to go in front of a judge. But it is not the prosecutor
Starting point is 00:54:20 that raises his right hand. It's the agent i believe what rosenstein is saying here by being adamant hey man i'm not the affiant on this pfizer warrant i think he's throwing him under the bus he's throwing him under the bus i don't believe i don't believe what he's saying about when he's saying the leaks some of them interpreting this is saying well they'll i gotta get this right if i don't i'll be doing you a disservice some are saying out there some of the analysis which is fair i'm i i mean i'm i i want to just put it out there well what he's not really saying that the fbi was lying joe what he's saying is that the leaks to the press about the quality of the information in the FISA
Starting point is 00:55:07 warrant are wrong. In other words, when I signed off on it as DOJ, as a representative for the DOJ on the FISA warrant, you heard in the press that all the information was crap and was based on the dossier, but those leaks are wrong. Wink and a nod. There may be some other stuff in there. I don't believe it one bit,
Starting point is 00:55:23 folks. Let me tell you why. Who was one of these FISA warrants against? One of the original ones, Carter Page. If the information against Carter Page turned out later to be true, that he was a spy working for the Russian government, why is Carter Page still free? I don't believe it. I don't believe it at all. We have seen no additional arrests. We have seen no evidence at all that the information in that FISA warrant largely was verified, documented, probable cause information of a foreign agent in the United States working with the Trump team in violation of U.S. law. We haven't because we've seen no arrest for collusion or conspiracy with the Russians at all. None. with the Russians at all. None. I don't buy it, folks. I believe what Rosenstein is saying in there. Rosenstein. What he's saying in that testimony is that somebody from the FBI walked in my office and told me this crap was true and it ain't. Which means somebody went into court under the penalty of perjury, raised their right hand and swore in front of a judge, a FISA judge, that that was true and roped Rosenstein. I'm not saying Rosenstein is an
Starting point is 00:56:31 innocent victim in any of this. I think he's done a terrible job. I think his testimony was, again, was over the top, was pompous, was arrogant. I think the obstruction by the DOJ and the release of materials has been awful. I'm just saying to you, I think Rosenstein being a creature of Washington, D.C. and being a survivor. Remember, he was appointed by Bush and Obama. This guy is a survivor. I worked for him when he was a U.S. attorney in Maryland. Rosenstein is a survivor. I think Rosenstein knows full well that there is an investigation going on. Here it is. Knows full well that there's an investigation going on about false statements made to either the FBI or made inside the courts. And that investigation is probably being run right now
Starting point is 00:57:17 by Hubert. The appointed United States attorney by Jeff Sessions to investigate in conjunction with the Inspector General allegations of malfeasance in this case. I think when you read through it, read through the piece it'll be up at the show notes today. You'll see exactly what I see. You clear on this Joe? That Rosenstein saying, hey I signed it based on what FBI agent so
Starting point is 00:57:42 and so told me. But I'm not the FBI agent he is. Read it. I-so told me. But I'm not the affiant. He is. Read it. I think you'll see exactly what I'm telling you here. All right, I have another piece in the show notes today that I strongly encourage you to check out. It's at my website, Bongino.com, debunking the myth of the Muslim ban.
Starting point is 00:57:57 So stupid. It's a shame we have to do this. There's no Muslim ban, folks. If Trump was going to ban Muslims, he picked all the wrong countries. Read the piece. I have it in the show notes today. It's so clear as day.
Starting point is 00:58:09 The Muslim ban only affects 8% of the world's Muslims. The worst Muslim ban ever if it was a Muslim. Only idiots believe that. So read the piece so you can debunk it for you, that nonsense for your liberal friends. All right, folks. Thanks again for tuning in. I really appreciate it. I'll be back with you tomorrow.
