I also address a disturbing new email from the coronavirus panic-porn insiders.  News Picks: Are members of the Clinton team in legal trouble? The GOP is planning high profile investigations if they gain back control of the House.  Republican led states continue to lead the economic recovery.  Why Democrats are losing Hispanic voter support.  Did “Zuckerbucks” swing the election?

Welcome to the Dan Bongino show. Let's get right to it. I've also got a very, very important segment on is the Clinton campaign finally in some legal jeopardy from the dorm investigation over Spygate. I don't know.

I don't trust the Justice Department to do the right thing, but I got to tell you, something happened yesterday that's interesting. Very interesting.

Joe, let's go. Let's go.'s go oh yeah christmas is around the corner yes sir and i'm still talking i just i i've you know what i i know i just i just i've i've decided that on your intros that just to just to have my sip of green tea before we let you say hello to me so whatever you do you it's not me i just that's just my new routine i like and the warm the green tea helps my vocal cords but you're getting sore from all this talking all the time so before i get to the

whole cumulus situation and vaccine mandates which is uh really uh pissing me off this morning pardon my language i want to get to this first, the fax vaccine and immunity to data theory. And I have vaccine mandates, cubits. The fax vaccine, don't laugh at your own jokes. And immunity to data theory on the left is proving true by the minute. I've joked over the years, but I'm only half joking. The only reason the joke is funny is because there's an element of truth in it that the left has taken the fax vaccine at an early age. The facts don't penetrate as like a vibranium coated skull, maybe Wolverine, adamantium. I've kind of made this joke way too often, so it's probably not even funny anymore. But you get the point. Facts don't get in. Facts,

fact blocker. They took an injection early. They're immune to facts. Data doesn't matter. Proving again, my theory is correct. Here is Joe Biden. Remember the global warming alarmist? They tell us, oh, the Earth is going to die. The death to the planet. Five years, six years, 79 years, 10 years. The.

It doesn't matter how many times they revise their outcome from when the earth is going to melt and blow up leftists still believe they're telling you the truth here exhibit a here's joe biden a little while ago telling us that the death of the planet we're all gonna die in nine years global warming is gonna do it here check this out science tells us we have nine years before the damage is irreversible nine years nine years damage is irreversible nine years folks no more time nine years irreversible damage joe all downhill after that okay watch the timeline go up again none of this bothers the left at all you know you're talking about something pretty serious, the death of the planet. You might, my gosh, nine years. Like you better start getting your emergency food together. I mean, seriously, you better stock up on gasoline, get an underground tank, a bunker,

maybe it'd be nine years. Listen, I'm prepared. I always prepare for an emergency, but man, nine years. If I knew that for sure, here's AOC a little while ago says, no, no, it's not nine years. Not nine. Don't worry guys. ago says no no it's not nine years not nine don't worry guys it's not it's 12 years so she for she I don't know maybe she did a calculation and she got three years more I don't know some bartender math in the back of a napkin who knows here's AOC don't worry it's 12 years till we're all dead the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change like this is the war this is our world war ii so this is kind of a serious thing you're talking about the world ending in nine years and now 12 years

kind of a big deal right world's gonna end you think we'd all be deeply concerned showing you again how leftists will fall for anything nobody's acting like that nobody's selling their homes hoarding gold trying to get a trip to another planet that can maybe support life like none of that's happening and you wonder like the left but they still suck up yeah 12 years we're all gonna die now AOC came back yesterday and she's now upped it from 9 to 12 to now 50 years. We now have 50 years until the planet's going to die. Check this out. We cannot allow we cannot allow the climate crisis to become a catastrophe, which is what is which is what is represented right now with this bill going by the wayside or being trimmed down any further. Because, as I've said in the House Democratic Caucus, some of us are actually

going to have to live on this planet in 50 years. And right now, what happens right now determines how bad it's going to be. And so this is real life. This is serious. And we need to govern like it. It's real life, folks. It's serious. Apparently not serious enough for you to get the math right. So Joe Biden said it's nine years and now we're up to 50 years kind of a big difference no yeah you're talking about the end of the world and not a small mistake right nine years he didn't say nine and a half you're nine to 50 here maybe you're wrong by the next time it's gonna be 100 2000 three million i mean what comes next doesn't matter doesn't matter to data, immune to the facts, immune to everything.

All right, moving on. Sorry, I don't mean to open up what kind of comic relief stuff. It's not funny. It's really nothing. It's only funny laughing at these idiots. But I'm really trying to impress upon you a very serious point that these people don't believe what they're telling you. This is nothing but emotional hysterics trying to get you to do things that align with their agenda

what they lost with the when when with the fall of the soviet empire they picked up with their allegiance to a global warming alarmism which does the same thing will destroy free markets it's the only way they don't believe any of this stuff. All right, moving on. So something came out yesterday, you could see in the Washington Examiner, about the John Durham investigation. I haven't covered Spygate in any kind of detail in a long time, the spying operation on Donald Trump.

But this is a pretty serious development. It's by Jerry Dunleavy, who's been a great, great reporter on Spygate and the collusion hoax you'll see this article in my newsletter today as well john dorham who's investigating this whole operation the spygate thing tells court members of clinton 2016 campaign under scrutiny okay listen again let me put the big caveat emptor buyer beware. I am not telling you the sky is falling on the Clinton campaign. I'm not telling you Hillary Clinton's getting into handcuffs.

Please, nothing irks me more because I read your feedback on the show. Dan, you told people I'm not telling you that. I'm simply giving you the facts john dorham who is prosecuting these spy gate hoaxers indicated in court yesterday that one of the people they're looking into danchenko there may be some legal problems with this law firm because some of the lawyers are working on hillary clinton's defense to this too. That's a big deal. Why would there be a conflict of interest? Because Durham is investigating the Clinton campaign too.

Is anything going to happen? I don't know. I have almost no faith left in the Justice Department. I'm simply reporting to you the fact that Durham is clearly now investigating Hillary Clinton and her campaign. That's a fact. It's in the court record. What do I think he could be investigating? I want you to follow me here. This is one of those segments that's going to require us to

do a little bit of a deep dive. I haven't done it in a while, but it's an important one nonetheless. It's obvious now Hillary Clinton and her team fabricated the collusion hoax. Okay, we all get that. Donald Trump colluded with the Russians was a figment of Hillary Clinton's imagination. The question is who's been the ringleader in this thing outside of Hillary Clinton and her small cabal of campaign staff? Folks, in my opinion, I think the possible ringleader here, as I've indicated a long time ago, is a guy named Strobe Talbot. Strobe Talbot worked for Bill Clinton and Bill Clinton's State Department. He was a higher up in Bill Clinton's State Department when he was the

President of the United States. Strobe Talbot is a longtime Clinton insider. And Strobe Talbot worked at a place called the Brookings Institution, which is central to the creation of the collusion hoax. I want you to look at Brookings' own release about Strobe Talbot. Remember, Talbot is a big time Clinton insider. Strobe Talbot's a distinguished fellow in the foreign policy program at the Brookings Institution. Talbot served as president of the Brookings Institution from July 2002 to October 2017. Prior to joining Brookings, Strobe Talbot served as president of the Brookings Institution from July 2002 to October 2017. Prior to joining Brookings, Shobh Talbot was founding director of the Yale Center for the Study of Globalization. Before that, he served in the State Department from, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, 1993 to 2001.

Who was president at the time? William Jefferson Clinton. who was president at the time, William Jefferson Clinton. First as ambassador at large and special advisor to Secretary of State and for the new independent states of the former Soviet Union. Guy was then Deputy Secretary of State for seven years. So Strobe Talbot worked at Brookokings was responsible for the russia profile and was bill clinton's deputy secretary of state wow that's kind of fascinating what does brookings have to do with this and strobe talbot ladies and gentlemen there had to be a ringleader talbot is a known clinton insider well a long time ago, we reported that Strobe Talbot has a very close pal,

a guy by the name of Cody Scheer. Cody Scheer produced a second dossier. I'm going to make the case to you that this is the actual dossier. Strobe Talbot and Cody Scheer are tight. Here, National Review, Brendan Bordelon wrote a piece on Cody Scheer a long time ago. Meet Cody Scheer, the strangest character in Hillary Clinton's vast left-wing conspiracy. This is from 2015. Cody Scheer's career took a strange turn when the Clintons entered the White House in 1992. His entree into the first family's orbit was Strobe Talbot, who happens to be Cody Scheer's brother-in-law who had been a friend of

bill clinton since the president's days at oxford talbot served as deputy secretary of bill clinton state department his brother-in-law cody sheer took a different route allegedly working with clinton enforcer terry lesnar to investigate and at times intimidate women who accuse bill clinton of sexual harassment so strobe talbot works at Brookings, handled a lot of the Russia stuff, Clinton Deputy Secretary of State. Strobe Talbot's brother-in-law is Cody Scheer, known Clinton hatchet man, brother-in-law to Strobe Talbot. What does Cody Scheer have to do with any of this and his connections to Strobe Talbot? Well, it's interesting. The Guardian had a fascinating piece a while ago about a quote

second Trump Russia dossier being assessed by the FBI really or was this all just the same dossier and they had a problem bringing it to the FBI with Cody Shear because Cody Shear was a known Clinton hatchet man so maybe Cody Shear wasn't the right face for the dossier. So they needed someone else. So who better than Christopher Steele, right? Former foreign spy, supposedly had connections in Russia. Take one piece of information, remove it from Scheer and give it to Steele. Oh, here we go. The Guardian, a left-wing outlet, wrote a piece about just this. Second Trump-Russia dossier being assessed by the FBI. Quote, Cody Scheer is a controversial figure in Washington. Conservative outlets have accused him of being a hatchet man

and a member of a secret spy ring within the Clinton's orbit. They say there's no evidence the Clinton campaign was aware of the Scheer member. No, no, no, no, no, no. But other people who know Scheer say he's not just a democratic party hack and there's no evidence his memo was ever sought by clinton campaign officials oh let's see i guess john doerr may be looking at that sources say that while cody sheer lacks the

precision and polish of a seasoned former spy like steel is. Scheer has also been described as having a large network of sources around the world. You see what's happening here, folks? Former Clinton insider Strobe Talbott's brother in law, Cody Scheer, puts together a dossier. The allegations resemble the other dossier

from Christopher Steele. Maybe the FBI didn't think Cody Scheer would be a reliable source because he's a brother-in-law to Clinton's former deputy secretary of state and a known Clinton hatchet man. So hey, just pass the information off to Christopher Steele.

He was a former spy. Then the same information will look legit. Is this what John Durham's looking into? So who was the connection between Strobe Talbot, Brookings, Cody Scheer, and the Obama White House? Remember that Clintons and the Obamas weren't tight all the time.

Well, first you have to take into account Victoria Nuland. Victoria Nuland, who was the Assistant Secretary of State in the Obama White House for Eurasian Affairs, covering Ukraine and other areas. You mean Ukraine like the impeachment, which was a cover to get rid of Trump people after they lost on the Spygate thing?

Yeah. Victoria Nuland, with Strobe Talbot's former chief of staff, worked deep inside the Obama White House and the State Department. Was she a conduit between Strobe Talbot, Cody Scheer, and the Obama White House and the State Department. Was she a conduit between Strobe Talbot, Cody Scheer, and the Obama White House? Interesting, isn't it? Former Chief of Staff, Strobe Talbot. Well, what else came out of Brookings? Remember, Strobe Talbot worked there.

What else came out of Brookings? The Newlands did some writings for Brookings, right? Well, the primary subs else came out of brookings the newland woods did some writings for brookings right well the primary subsource came out of brookings the primary subsource is under indictment right now by john durham is a russian analyst by the name of igor denchenko cbs news russian analyst who worked on the steel dossier pleads not guilty to federal charges his name was denchenko before Before Danchenko, quote, was introduced to Steele in 2010 and hired as a contractor for his investigative firm, Danchenko worked for several years

as an analyst at the Brookings Institution, where he focused on Russia and Eurasian geopolitical matters, according to the indictment. Oh my gosh, that's really weird. What did I tell you about the Ukraine impeachment, about the phone call, that's really weird. What did I tell you about the Ukraine impeachment about the phone call? That the Ukraine impeachment was a cover to get rid of Donald Trump

after the Spygate thing didn't work out. And isn't it weird that the people involved in Ukraine affairs for the Democrats, Victoria Nuland, Fiona Hill, all of these other people, all seem to be connected to both cases. Isn't that kind of odd? Yeah. Finally, here's another connection to Brookings. Remember Fiona Hill?

Worked inside D.C. for a long time over multiple administrations. She was at Brookings, too. Remember her testifying against Trump at the Ukraine impeachment? Where's Fiona Hill? Fiona Hill was a senior fellow at the Center on the United States and Europe in the foreign policy program at the Brookings Institution, run by Strom Dalman. She recently served as deputy assistant to the president

and senior director for European and Russian affairs. There we go again. She served as a national intelligence officer for Russia and Eurasia at the national intelligence council so just to be clear as i sum this up john dorham's investigating the clinton campaign for their role in creating the fake uh the fake russian collusion hoax and spying on donald trump the clinton campaign is very close to a guy named strobe talbot who ran the brookings institution the people involved in the ukrainian impeachment Trump were Victoria Nuland, Fiona Hill,

and others who also had connections to the Brookings Institution and worked on the Ukraine portfolio. Cody Scheer is the brother-in-law to Strobe Talbot. Cody Scheer produces a dossier that sounds suspiciously like the Christopher Steele dossier. The allegations are pretty much the same. And then when Cody Scheer's dossier doesn't get picked up, all of a sudden it gets handed off to Christopher Steele. And then conveniently, he uses cover. Christopher Steele's primary substores becomes a guy, Danchenko, who works at Brookings where Strobe Talbot used to work

and is also responsible for Eurasia, Ukraine, and other areas. Remember the name Strobe Talbot, folks. My humble opinion. He is one of the possible ringleaders of this operation. More on that coming. All right, let me get to my second sponsor here. But coming up, I'm sorry to expose you to two dreadful AOC clips in the same show. We've been staying away from this for a bit, not on purpose.

It's just there's just so much else going on. But AOC and the left, again, are having a difficult time with math, as we indicated yesterday from the ABC tweet. One senator, Joe Manchin, stopping the president's agenda. It's actually 51-1-51. I don't know why you have a difficult time with math. You're just humiliating yourself. All right, today's show also sponsored by Omaha.

Check them out. You'll love it. All right. Just quickly, I'm not going to beat this thing to death. Again, I showed you in the beginning of the show how they're immune to facts and data. We're going to die in nine years, 12 years, 50 years. It doesn't matter. They're going to stick to the narrative. We're all going to die.

It doesn't matter what the time. They're just going to make it up as they go along. Here's AOC again in the left, pretending that they can't do basic math. Joe Manchin is joined with the Republicans and said, I am not going to support the build back worse plan. The Republicans have 50 members. That means it's 51, which last time I checked with a hundred person body in the Senate, I checked with a hundred person body in the Senate, 51 is a majority. My math may be way off, Joe, but 51, I believe is a majority in a hundred person body. I just check it. Yeah. Please check. Can you do me a favor? I know you're going to need a moment. Let's play this AOC clip. And on the other side of this break, if you could confirm with us that 51 is in fact a majority in a hundred

member body, it takes some time. I don't want to rush you. Here's A that 51 is in fact a majority in a hundred member body. It takes some time. I don't want to rush you. Here's AOC again, who has a difficult time with math, claiming that the Senate is undemocratic because 51 people have an opinion. The other 49 don't. I'm kidding. Check this out. It is unconscionable the way that the Senate operates.

It's fundamentally undemocratic. And now what it's doing is that it is allowing the Senate operates. It's fundamentally undemocratic. And now what it's doing is that it is allowing the stripping of people's voting rights across the country. We are in a crisis. Nineteen states have passed over thirty three laws to limit or restrict the right to vote in the United States of America. We are beyond the time for something to pass. Ah, undemocratic. Joe, just, you know, I gave you some time. I don't know if you need more. No.

I'm going to have to look at your scrap paper, too, for what work you did. I'm going to have to see that afterwards. But is 51, in fact, a majority in a 100-member body? I Googled it, and 51 is a majority, yeah. Okay, good, good, good. You had to double-check online. Yeah. I didn't tell you you kind of cheated a little bit but that's okay

that's okay I'll allow it I'll allow it this one time remember in college you had to kind of show your work in those little blue books Joe should show his work I think it's only fair to the audience but yes 51 is in fact the majority so AOC can only is not only incapable of doing math she's also

incapable of telling the truth 13 states have passed rules limiting voting. That's totally factually inaccurate. But I mean, this is what happens. Listen, bartenders are smart. My guy Pete from Glenn Patrick's pub on Cross Bay, he was a super

smart guy. I may have had a few beers there in my day with my brother. But Pete was a really smart guy, had great life advice. AOC, we own the bar. The bartenders we have are really smart. AOC is an embarrassment to bartenders. This is one of the dumbest human beings on planet Earth, really. And the fact that the Democrats have placed all their faith in her going forward should

really, really be a great thing, should be a wonderful thing for Republicans. She is going to drive that party, I promise you, into a ditch. She's not only an ideological train wreck, she's a certified imbecile. Undemocratic. 51 voting against 49. That's undemocratic. I want for you to explain that in the basic math class to a bunch of third graders. Moving on.

New rules are in effect, folks. I've told you about the new rules. The old rules are out. The old rules, hey, we're all going to have to play nice and cute in the sandbox. You can stick those rules up your caboose. We won't be doing those rules anymore. The new rules are in effect. The Democrats have decided to dissolve the old rules, turn Congress into some star chamber-like,

super investigative body where they're going to subpoena people, act like quasi FBI agents, send Steve Bannon and Mark Meadows to jail. So, okay, you want to do investigations in Congress? We can do investigations too. Got it? Just the news. I'd like you to read this article because it's a good one and they better follow through. Listen to me, GOP swamp, swamp topians, GOP swamp swamp topians, excuse me. You better follow through. If we hand you back the house and the Senate,

you better follow through on these investigations. We'll be watching. This show will be watching. We've got you on the record. Now the article is titled from Fauci to big tech. GOP already has a clear investigate investigative targets, excuse me, if it wins back Congress. The election's a year away. House Republicans already know what they want to investigate and who they want to subpoena. You damn well better follow through on this.

Some of the investigations we might be looking at. The NSA allegedly spying on Tucker Carlson. The school board's memo treating parents like domestic terrorists, the Hunter Biden ongoing corruption selling America out scandal, the IRS leak scandal, the IRS's leaked treasure troves of information about private Americans out to leftist outlets, the border crisis, the Afghanistan, the deadly situation in Afghanistan, Fauci, gain of function. I want all of it. And if they don't comply with subpoenas, they go to jail.

Your rules, not mine. Your rules. You want to throw Bannon in jail and Mark Meadows? Your rule, not my rules. Your rules. You better follow through. We will be watching everything. your rules. You better follow through. We will be watching everything.

By the way, you can add this to the investigative list as well. Scott Atlas, who, but I'm in a disclosure folks. I'm proud of my publishing operation here, but we, one of the books I'm publishing this year in Liberaceo Protocol,

which is my publisher, is A Plague Upon Our House. This is the actual book. This is Scott Atlas's book, A Plague Upon Our House. I promise you, it is a devastating inside account of what happened with all the people giving President Trump awful advice and how they tried to screw over America. It's called A Plague Upon our house. Pick it up. Here's Scott Atlas on the great Steve Hilton's podcast, California Rebel Base. He's talking to Steve Hilton and his co-host about what happened with insiders in the White House when he was there and how they were so desperate to do the wrong thing, pushing for lockdowns while not focusing on vulnerable people like nursing homes. And look where it led us now.

Here's Scott Atlas. Check this out. The president, you're right, Steve, was on record as saying that lockdowns are super destructive. Schools should open safely. Society must open. We shouldn't be locking down healthy people. And instead, and this is sort of the stuff,

this is what I wanted was made more sense, which was targeted protection, increasing protection of the people at risk. There it is. Listen, I met with Dr. Birx early in this, in a small group of people that were there. All right. I got the impression early on that she was going to be an alarmist and not

someone looking to solve problems. Sadly, I was correct. We can see this now through Dr. Burks, who appeared to be of the same, same mind with Fauci. We have an email to Mark short,

Mark short, who worked with the vice president. Dr. Birx did not like the fact that Scott Atlas, who I feel was a much more intelligent and well, more well-grounded guy when it comes to this epidemic, she had no respect for him at all. Dr. Birx and Fauci were committed to this lockdown masking strategy, which has clearly failed. And when Scott Atlas brought up alternative ideas like focusing all of our resources on vulnerable people, vulnerable people, triaging our operation to make sure they didn't die, she didn't like that.

So now we have this new email from Dr. Birx. This isn't personal. She was very kind to me. I didn't, it wasn't a personal meeting with her. It was a group meeting, but it was a rather small group. She was an affable woman, wasn't nasty to me or anything, but I got the impression early on she was going to be an alarmist. And sadly, I was right.

Here, notice in this email to Mark Short, she calls people like Atlas. This is who she's referring to. A fringe group without grounding in epidemics, public health, or on-the-ground common sense experience. None of that, of course, is accurate, as Scott Atlas and Jay Bhattacharya and others who signed the Great Barrington Declaration have now been proven correct, that the strategy to lock down society and people who are not generally at risk was a major cataclysmic disaster. who are not generally at risk was a major cataclysmic disaster.

I'm going to get to some of the poll data in a minute because the poll data on Biden's handling and people like Birx and Fauci who were of similar mind to Psaki and Biden and others, how his just disastrous, dreadful handling of the coronavirus is destroying his support, even in the minority community, destroying his support. Metrolinks and Crosslinks are reminding everyone to be careful as Eglinton Crosstown LRT train testing is in progress. Please be alert, as trains can pass at any time on the tracks. Remember to follow all traffic signals. Be careful along our tracks and only make left turns where it's safe to do so.

Be alert, be aware, and stay safe. Whether in the game or in life, the right coverage can make all the difference. Securian Canada gives you that coverage.

Lock down the schools, masks, mandates, vaccine mandates. None of this is working. Because of that, the public is catching on. How do we know the public's catching on? Because look at this. Giancarlo Sopo on his verified Twitter account. working because of that the public is catching on how do we know the public's catching on because

look at this giancarlo sopo on his verified twitter account a new national pbs marist poll finds joe biden's approval rating is significantly lower with hispanics than it is with whites oh yeah oh yeah that's that's bad hispanic disapproval 65 Hispanic disapproval, 65%. White disapproval, 56%. Sopo notes these numbers are devastating to Democrats. Folks, listen to me. By the way, it's not just them. Guy, throw up the Hill article. Biden's approval rating overall is the lowest it's ever been.

The Hill, Michael Schnell, December 20, 2021. Biden approval rating at historic low in NPR, PBS, NewsHour, Marist Poll. You would think if these people had any common sense at all, they do not, that they would say, what are we doing wrong? The public's not digging our chili. We're serving the chili bowl. The public's not liking it.

What are we doing wrong? Maybe the lockdowns, the mandates, maybe we should just tell the public at this time, we have therapeutics, we're working on more. We'll try to improve these vaccines. Otherwise, go out and live your life. Don't go around sick people. If you're sick, stay home. You would think that would happen. No, nope, nope, nope. The panic brigade continues as Biden's approval rating goes down and down and down and down. And let me tell you, there's a silver lining to this. Like I said on my Fox show this past week, the silver lining to all this is this.

The Democrats cannot win a national election without this and only this coalition. They need single single moms, suburban moms, young voters, Hispanic voters, black voters and minority voters. Let me say that's a big coalition. It is a big coalition. They're losing moms. They're losing suburban moms. They're losing single moms because of their education agenda. They're now losing Hispanic voters. Black voters, they're starting to lose as well. Not majorities of them, not even close, but enough to do real damage. And other minority groups as well are turning on them.

Folks, if Hispanic voters, an enormous voting bloc in the United States en masse moves from Democrats to the Republican Party, I am telling you, there will not be another national victory for the Democrats anytime in the future. There is simply no math. Please, take my word for it.

Yeah, Guy brings up a good point. Watch the pandering intensify, which is not working. It's not working. It's not working. It's not working. Hispanic voters don't want free stuff. They don't want to be told God is terrible. They don't want to be told their kids are racist because they're white, Hispanic, or whatever nonsense you make up. They don't want it. What part of this are you not getting? I'm not trying to talk you out of it, though.

You keep it up. This is apocalyptic news for the Democrats. All right, moving on. I want to address something here, because no matter how many times I address it, it just continues to come back because there's this just the left folks is just bizarrely obsessed with me. It's just weird. It's like boiling bunny obsessed. I get it. I get it that I do, you know, particularly harmful damage to their tyrannical agenda. And therefore they try to take me out. But what bothers them is they don't have any character stuff to do with me.

And I stand on principle. So what they do is they're constantly trying to attack me to degrade me in your eye. It's not to the left. The leftists hate me already. There's nothing more to degrade. So one of the things that keeps coming up is my situation with Cumulus.

Cumulus is my radio show syndicator they also are a sales agent for my podcast they work for me on the podcast not the other way around they have a vaccine mandate at cumulus and they fired people with a black heart they fired people coldly the emails are horrible and as i promised and i meant it we're going to be um financially helping out some of them uh because we because we want to and it's the right thing to do we're not looking for any pats on the back believe me but for some reason the left's become obsessed with this story. They're obsessed with the story because they don't like the fact that I have one of the largest radio shows in the country. Second, maybe third largest, depending on what claim buck. I don't know how many stations they have now. It's not a competition. I'm just throwing that out there,

but it's an enormous show. The left doesn't like it that a guy who has eight and a half to nine million listeners by the day is standing up against vaccine mandates because they love vaccine mandates. That's their thing. And they don't like it that I've stood up and have made a dent. So they're desperately emailing me every day because they're thirsty. They're cowards and chumps and never stood for anything in their lives. I had said to Cumulus a while ago,

and I meant it on October 18th, that they can have me or they can have the mandate. I meant it. Now I'll say this. I should have been a little clearer on what I meant by that. I was trying to be cryptic because I wanted to give Cumulus time

to work some stuff out. That was clearly a mistake. Cumulus has shown no integrity in this process at all. I have a contract with Cumulus. I did Cumulus a big favor when we lost Rush Limbaugh tragically too soon. I did not want this job in 12 to 3 initially. I did them a favor because they needed someone. And I grew to love it. I like and enjoy the show now. I love being there 12 to 3 with you every day. But they rushed us through the process. And we're locked in for a little over two more years. If I leave now, number one, not only will people who work for me lose their jobs also,

which would be unbelievably counterproductive. but secondly, Cumulus would get a financial windfall, which would not only make them very wealthy and better off, but then they would sell the show to someone else because I'm sure some parasite would come in and take it tomorrow. So then they would be rewarded. Now, I've given Cumulus an opportunity. I was trying to be kind about it to get rid of this ridiculous, unscientific, immoral vaccine mandate. Cumulus is trying to hold their ground. They told their investors on a call, it's all public, that my earnings, I guess, were not material to the company, which is quite hilarious. We can do math. Call and try and get an ad on my show and see what it costs.

Then do the math times four. We run four spots and then look at their market cap and you tell me if my earnings are material. I think you'll get a different answer. But here's what we're going to do now. We'll be making an announcement. We're taking some time off.

It's not related to this. I don't want to, again, spin your wheels. But when we come back after the new year, I'm going to give them some time again to rethink this thing because I really do want this to work out and I want these people to be taken care of. But then we'll be making an announcement about the future with Cumulus. Unfortunately, I'm locked in for a little bit. Not that much longer, but I'm locked in. I'm not going to spin your wheels. Me leaving does them no benefit. Not only that, it hurts the radio stations who've been very good to me.

Don't confuse the radio. The radio stations have nothing to do with this. It's the parent company. They've been good to me. I'm not going to leave them in a lurch. The program directors there and the radio station managers have been amazing. They are good people. A lot of them have expressed support for me

in my fight against Cumulus. But I can't leave them in a lurch either. But I meant clearly what I said. They can have me or they can have their mandate, but they can't have both. And while they may have leverage in this medium term over the next couple of years, they have absolutely no leverage going forward.

Zero. I meant what I said. And the only reason the left is relentlessly attacking me is because they want us to turn on each other. Say, look, he didn't mean it. I guess we'll see, won't we? When we come back in January, once you make an announcement on the air, that's it, right? Can't go back then. I guess we'll see. I guess we'll see who has balls and who doesn't. Let's wait and see. And by the way, to Michael Harrison and Brian Rosenwald, who thought it'd be a good idea to go and try to crap on me as radio talk industry historians to a left-wing rag outlet, I don't know who you are. I've never heard of you in my life. Brian Rosensfeld, talk radio historian. I plan on never hearing from you again either,

but it's kind of odd you felt the need to, having no knowledge whatsoever of what I'm doing with Cumulus to fight for these people. You're probably a castrated eunuch too, along with some Michael Harrison cat from Talkers. Oh, Dan Bogino maybe overestimated his clout. I guess we'll see, won't we, Michael, who runs a blog called Talkers or something like that. Oh, you don't know who they are? No, I've heard of them a couple times.

I have no idea who this guy is. Apparently knows me, though. Thirsty, had to get in the newspaper newspaper we'll see who's got clout and who doesn't right wait your apology later all right moving on you know what let me get to um this last spot here's what i got coming up i want to get to the zuckerbuck scandal because it's a big deal. Mark Zuckerberg spending money in swing districts and how the Democrats are going to have a real problem going forward. Also, I'd like the GOP to add this to their investigative list if we take back the House and the Senate.

And then I want to show you a tweet showing that the Dan Bongino golden rule that we think Democrats are people with bad ideas. They think we're bad people with ideas. Again again proving my golden rule is in fact accurate when doctors clinicians and government officials collaborate with our country's innovative pharmaceutical companies the side effects include improved policies that speed up the delivery of medications to those in need and better overall overall health for all Canadians. At New Balance, we believe if you run, you're a runner. However you choose to do it. Because when you're not worried about doing things the right way, you're free to discover your way. And that's what running is all about run your way at newbalance.com running

okay so remember the whole russian collusion fiasco and one of the basis is one of the basis for it was listen that russ Russian spent a hundred thousand dollars on Facebook ads in like Wisconsin or so that was it. Yeah. A hundred thousand. You're like, wow. So the Russians can alter an election and get a president like Donald

Trump elected, but only a hundred thousand dollars in Wisconsin. Woo, man, that should be a template going forward for the GOP. Spend a hundred thousand dollars at a swing state, you can flip an election. Why didn't we think of that? But you notice when other people spend money in swing states to get Democrats elected,

did you notice nobody seems to give a flying? Did you notice that? Washington Examiner, Paul Bedard is the story. Be my newsletter today. About Zuckerbox. Remember Zuckerbox? Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg yeah dumping a whole boatload of money into swing states and specifically locations that voted for uh voted for Joe Biden here's a headline 2020 Zuckerbox dumped in eight

states 90 percent of the money went to Biden counties here's a tweet by Claudia Tenney. Claudia Tenney, she's a congresswoman right now. She shows a side-by-side comparison showing the dramatic difference between how the CTCL funneled the Zuckerbucks to these Democratic-leading counties to drive up turnout, while under-investing

in counties likely to break for Trump. Look at the difference, folks. Texas Democrat County, 34 million. Look at the difference, folks. Texas, Democrat County, 34 million. GOP County, 2 million. Ohio, another swing state, 4.7 million to 3.7 million. Nevada, 2.6 million into swing counties, zero to GOP county just 60,000 Georgia 42,000 42 million excuse me to 3 million

here's the last one Florida there's more in there you can check it out the article yourself it's embedded in there in that piece 14 million of Florida in the democrat counties 1 million in the GOP counties I need an investigation into this you need an investigation into this America need an investigation into this. You need an

investigation into this. America needs an investigation into this. Why? Can you please explain to me with a straight face how it is that you rested your entire Russian collusion hoax, right? On Russia spending a hundred thousand dollars on Facebook ads in some swing state, right? But now you're talking about tens of millions of dollars in turnout operations invested almost exclusively in Democrat leading counties that voted for Joe Biden. And you're suggesting to me that it was the Republicans. It was the Republicans who interfered in an election? You'll get nothing and I can. You're darn right, Judge Smales.

And I still haven't seen Caddyshack, by the way, just to know. Or The Godfather, which is a disgrace. Either one of them. I get a lot of emails, but since I admitted it enough, I'd never seen,

I know Judge Smales only from the Smales exhortation. You will get nothing and you'll like it. I'd like to see an investigation into that. I'd like to have Mark Zuckerberg up there or Facebook answering questions about the CTCL and why they donated all that money to these specific counties.

What was it? Was it an effort to juice Democratic-only turnout? If that were the case, why was it declared a political donation? Was it? How did this work out exactly? And I'd like them to explain how Russia got Donald Trump in the White House with $100,000 in Wisconsin, but Mark Zuckerberg didn't get Biden in the White House with tens of millions in swing counties. I'd like you to explain that.

That would be quite fascinating. All right, moving on. You know my golden rule, right? The evidence just pops up by the day that everything I've been telling you is correct. The fax vaccine know my golden rule, right? The evidence just pops up by the day that everything I've been telling you is correct. The fax vaccine, all of this, right? So one of my golden rules is we think Democrats are people with bad ideas.

They think Republicans are bad people with ideas. So Bette Midler, kind of a joker, hasn't done anything since like, what, The Witches of Eastwick or whatever that movie was. Was she in Beaches or something like that too? Bette Midler's, I heard she can sing. Who knows what she's up to now. But Bette Midler thought it would be a good idea

to attack Joe Manchin after he joined 50 senators. That makes 51. 50 plus one is 51. Just trying to redo the math again for the Democrats. So she thought it would be a good idea, Bette Midler, to attack Joe Manchin. She's like, screw that Joe Manchin. I'm going to shred this idiot. Now, keep in mind, she is a Hollywood snob and elitist. And although me and Meghan McCain are probably not the best

of friends, Meghan McCain tweeted to Bette Midler after the tweet I'm about to read, it's because of people like you that people in West Virginia vote for Joe Manchin. She tweeted this, Bette Midler. What Joe Manchin, who represents a population smaller than Brooklyn, has done to the rest of America, who wants to move forward, not backward, like his state, West Virginia, is horrible. He sold us out. He wants us all to be just like his state, West Virginia, poor, illiterateate and strung out now bet middler is uh tried to walk that tweet back we're not gonna let her uh of course that's probably exactly what she was thinking at the time she sent it out but is that not again more evidence of the dan bongino golden rule about how they think we are genuinely awful people and to the people in west virginia i've spent a decent amount of time in west virginia and the evidence of the Dan Bongino golden rule about how they think we are genuinely awful people.

And to the people in West Virginia, I've spent a decent amount of time in West Virginia and the West Virginia, Maryland border. A friend of mine, her father had a cabin up there. We used to, they used to let us use once in a while. West Virginia is a beautiful, gorgeous place. Then the fact that you as a resident of West Virginia and an American citizen have to listen to Hollywood elitist snobs like Bette Midler, who hasn't done anything since beaches, address you like you're a bunch of poor, illiterate, strung out losers is candidly an embarrassing disgrace. All right, moving on.

I don't want to waste a lot of time. My final story, I didn't get to it yesterday. I wanted to get to it today. Listen, regarding the growing inflation crisis, folks, I don't want you to fall into this narrative building by the left and the math trap. Listen, Joe Biden knows exactly what he's doing. He knows the printing of a bunch of money we don't have via the infrastructure bill, whatever it may be, is going to lead to an inflation crisis because the money has to

come from somewhere, notably the Federal Reserve. He understands that. Now, because it's leading to an inflation crisis we haven't seen since the Carter era, he needs to blame people because, again, it's the fax vaccine. They think Democrats are stupid and that whatever they tell you, you're going to fall for. I want you to keep your eye on a very specific number. The CPI is a big deal. The consumer price index, that's going to measure a basket of, I think it's 200 goods. That's going

to measure inflation on the consumer forward-facing front, the stuff you go in and buy, right? Steak, furniture, computers, you buy it forward-facing, right? On the back end of that, on backward-facing, is the producer price index that's what the producers have to pay for the inputs to give you the stuff forward facing to you they have to pay for cows to produce beef unless you're eating that fake beef right chemically made beef whatever the hell that is they have to buy the glass and chips for computers plastics, the complicated rare earth minerals, right? They have to buy that stuff. It is very easy to prove to you that Joe Biden is making this up,

blaming inflation on these, you know, grotesque, greedy companies. They are just the middlemen. One, it would be interesting to make the argument that greed has just surfaced since Joe Biden got into office. But secondly, just look at the PPI. These companies that are passing on these prices to you are doing so because they're paying even more. The inputs to sell you these products are through the roof, folks. Just look. The data's right there.

Don't get suckered by this blame game. It's pathetic. It's infantile. Data has to matter. It has to matter. Your food and your furniture and your computers and your cars and rental cars are more expensive for one simple reason. There's more money chasing goods, and there's not enough goods out there. That's why the glass in your car, the engine, the motor oil, the rubber on the tires is all more expensive, and that's why you're paying more. These companies have a profit margin they have to meet to stay in business. If they don't meet it, they don't have a business. This is not charity. I'm sorry.

That world does not exist. Businesses are in business to produce quality products people will buy and want. They are also in business to pay their employees, keep their stores open, pay their electric bill, keep them clean, stay stocked with inventory, and shockingly, to make a profit. And for those of you out there on the left that hate profit and think profit's a bad thing, I ask you a very simple question. Dip wads on the left. Do you work for free? No, I don't work for free.

Oh, you don't work for free. You just want everyone in corporate America to work for free. Profit's a bad thing unless you profit from your work. Just to be clear, you're not volunteering any of your time at your job. None. You want to profit from your work. You just don't want companies to profit from theirs. Just checking. All right, folks, that's all I got for you today. Again, I don't mean, I'm sorry, I don't mean to waste a lot of your time on what's going on, but this saga with me, it's not just a personal story.

It's not just me burning up my time on what's going on with Cumulus. The story matters because the left is just desperate to character assassinate all of us when they can't find real things out there. And they're doing it by maliciously mischaracterizing the facts about what's going on. I'll have more on this on my radio show later.

I got my friend, bodybuilder Steve Kuklo coming on around the holidays, New Year's, kind of getting shaped stuff. I love my man Kuklo, so check him out. He'll be on later on the radio show. Make sure you subscribe to my show on Rumble, rumble.com slash Bongino. It's all free.
