Starting point is 00:00:00 get ready to hear the truth about america on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host dan bongino so that's the question right the question is who's behind all this because it's really easy to get suckered into this vortex of stupid if you're a leftist because they live in a vortex of stupid when you don't understand who's behind all this. When I say all of this, I mean the chaos. Who's behind the chaos going on in the country right now? Yeah, obviously Biden and his losers in the White House, but there's somebody financing all this. Not just one person, but a group of people. And when you understand that, you'll see why they're trying to sucker us in as well. They're trying to use us. Don't fall for it.
Starting point is 00:00:47 When I say them, I mean the agitators. They're preying on our principles because we have them. And they know that. And they think it's our weak spot. Sorry, I shouldn't point. I'll show you exactly what I mean coming up in a second. Big show for you today on this Friday. I'm not doing the radio show today, but I am doing the podcast Evita and Jim will be in taking over right after me. I'm bouncing out to the Morgan Wallen concert Saturday night in Nashville
Starting point is 00:01:14 and I have a book signing event in Nashville. It's going to be kind of an online event, but I'll have the details for you coming up soon. So don't go anywhere. Hey, can your savings weather an economic storm? Think about what you put away for the future. Inflation can just destroy the value of your cash, obviously. Real estate can crash just like it did in 2008. Economies built on mountains of debt can fall apart like a house of cards because they have.
Starting point is 00:01:40 There are very few physical assets you can invest that can stand the test of time. Gold is withstood as a valued form of currency for money for millennia. It's why people are flocking to it and why Birch Gold, the company I use that many times, is busier than ever. Through a little-known tax loophole, Birch Gold lets you convert a retirement account into an existing IRA, into a tax-sheltered IRA in physical gold. I love Birch.
Starting point is 00:02:02 I've used it many times. And the best part, it doesn't cost you a penny out of pocket. To learn more, text DAN to 989898, claim your free information kit on gold. Let me ask you again, can your IRA or 401k weather an economic storm? Protect yourself, because if not,
Starting point is 00:02:17 call the people I trust, Birch Gold. Text DAN to 989898, secure your savings today. Text DAN to 989898, message and your savings today. Text Dan to 989898. Message and data rates apply. All right? Tony controlling. Tony is like Captain Kirk behind the con today.
Starting point is 00:02:32 So ladies and gentlemen, I'm not going to just, I'm just going to make it really simple. The chaos on campuses and elsewhere, where the lefties are playing to our principles going, hey, conservatives, please support all this chaos. It's a free speech issue. It is not a free speech issue. The people financing this are literally the same people who are censoring you.
Starting point is 00:02:57 Receipts right away, right out of the chute. New York Post. George Soros is paying student radicals who are fueling nationwide explosion of Israel hating protests. April 26, 2024. You know, Tony, the halcyon days of last week. Folks, read the piece. Don't take my word for it. You'll see the money trail. Hilariously, that dope Philip bump at the Washington Post. It is, again, the face endless litany of face plans tried to debunk this story. And if you,
Starting point is 00:03:29 I'm not even going to show his like, cause it's so dumb. And inadvertently in his own Washington post story confirms that there's a money trail between Soros groups and these people. So George Soros, no friend to us, no friend to free speech is financing this. Why? Why would George Soros be no friend to us, no friend to free speech, is financing this. Why?
Starting point is 00:03:45 Why would George Soros be financing campus chaos? Because of my walking dead theory. Liberals like George Soros want to break down the United States by any means necessary. They want to make sure that we walk into the prison voluntarily, just like in The Walking Dead where they try to escape the zombies, and we lock ourselves up. And chaos is the best way to do it because people just want it to end. But look, Washington Examiner, Gabe Kaminsky, who did amazing reporting on this. This is just December of 2023, not that long ago. George Soros flooded big tech
Starting point is 00:04:17 censorship presser group with millions during midterm elections. Folks, it's the same guy. during midterm elections. Folks, it's the same guy. It's the same dude. I can't emphasize to you enough, without beating this thing to a pulp, that the same people trying to censor us are the ones fueling these campus protests. They understand you have principles. The left, that is. Tony, if this doesn't make sense, stop it. But this is really important. The left knows we care passionately about free speech, about free speech for liberals, free speech for conservatives, free speech for everyone. So what do they do? They play on that. This has nothing to do with no one's arguing that these protesters have the right to say what they want. They just don't have the right to burglarize property, trespass, and beat the shit out of people.
Starting point is 00:05:07 But they know if they use code words like free speech, because we so passionately believe it, that the Soros money train and all these losers, they'll get a bunch of vulnerable people on the right to jump in. Not you, but you'd be stunned how many people have fallen for this. It is a scam. It's a scam. A couple more things on this.
Starting point is 00:05:25 This is not a free speech fight. This has nothing to do with that. No one is arguing against that. I want you to watch this here just to show you how really malicious and I mean, the malfeasance here on these college campuses, don't confuse it with misfeasance. This is malfeasance.
Starting point is 00:05:42 This guy deserves like a box of cookies, man. This is a young black gentleman on the college campus there, and he's at UCLA, and he's like, hey, bro, I got my GED in prison. I just want to walk around this campus. I'm the minority you guys all
Starting point is 00:05:57 claim to be protecting. I want you to watch this guy humiliate these idiots. I promise you, this is going to be one of the best clips you've seen in a long time. You're going to laugh your ass off. Check this out. Against censorship. When they try to take out explicit materials from
Starting point is 00:06:12 kids' schools and stuff like that, then y'all are against censorship. But now, when a student wants to record, suddenly you're wearing masks, you're wearing sunglasses, you're hiding your face, you're trying to censor people's freedoms and rights. Like, man, y'all are a very confused group of people, man.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Is this SJP giving y'all these rules or is this FJP? You're free to leave. I am because I'm a U.S. citizen, so I'm free to do anything I want. That's the cool thing about being a U.S. citizen. When you work hard and get into UCLA, see, I got my GED in prison. So that means less than 1% of us will ever get any college degree i'm getting a college degree from ucla the number one public university in the nation so i'm free to go anywhere on this campus i want yes sir you are well done well done amigo you are free to go wherever you want we need more of that because we're the ones,
Starting point is 00:07:05 conservatives who are conserving the rights of minorities, religious minorities, even LGBTQ, BIO, PC people. Yes, they have the same constitutional rights as everyone else. It's us defending that, not the commies on the campus who would send you over to Iran to get thrown over across a building. And I just want you to see, too, folks, these people we're up against in this college campus chaos stuff, the Soros-funded groups and otherwise, they are losers. They are total life losers. And this is very, listen, man, serious.
Starting point is 00:07:35 This is like, to the lefties out there, I'm doing you a favor right now. I don't like you, okay? You don't like me. We all understand. We get it, right? There's never going to be some rapprochement. We can't stand each other. Point stipulated. I'm just warning you now. We don't want trouble. We certainly don't want political violence. We do not want some civil war going on. But you keep poking people. You're poking the wrong people. I did a segment on radio yesterday.
Starting point is 00:08:11 These leftist wussbags, they're poking and they're poking and they're poking and they're asking for something they have no ability to fight back against. We don't want this. We just want to be left alone. But I want you to understand that you're treading on really, really, really dangerous through dangerous water right now. Look at these absolute losers. I call this the Avengers assemble clip.
Starting point is 00:08:35 Look at these zeros. These Antifa, whatever, Soros, left wing, BLM, Occupy Wall Street, WTO, Kill the Jews rally. Look at them. Look at these idiots. They come out with their dopey umbrellas. I want you to watch them charge the cops. If you're listening to this on Apple and Spotify, please watch this video.
Starting point is 00:08:54 Tony spliced them together. This is the funniest thing. There they are. They've got fake shields made out of garbage cans. Look at this asshole charging a cop with a bike helmet on. I want you to see this guy. This lasts all of about, ah, there you go, a half a second. Falls on his dopey looking twig leg ass, gets yanked out and arrested immediately.
Starting point is 00:09:15 These are the losers we're fighting. I'm just telling you lefties, I'm trying to help. Cut the bullshit. Cut the bullshit. Cut the bullshit. This is not going to end like you think it's going to end when you've poked and prodded the wrong guy. This is the dipshits you've got on your side of America and liberty and freedom and defending everybody's rights, including yours, losers, are people who've worked on farms their whole life, who've got the farm boy strength. You know what I'm talking about. It was a big thing on my show yesterday.
Starting point is 00:09:56 They're cops. They're mechanics. They're firemen. These aren't the people you want to toy with, especially when you're fake Captain America, like that dipshit right there, running with his goofy looking jeans, like he's got like a bug up his ass or something, gets absolutely level. I mean, how insane does this have to get when freaking Al Sharpton, one of the dumbest dudes to ever get a show. Have you ever watched The Outtakes, by the way? I'll have to play this once on the show.
Starting point is 00:10:25 Al Sharpton's battle with the teleprompter. It's freaking hilarious. One of the dumbest guys on TV. How crazy do things have to get when Al Sharpton is actually the voice of reason? I'm serious. Listen to this. He's like, Democrats, you're losing all credibility.
Starting point is 00:10:39 You can't go attack January 6th people and then sit on the sidelines and watch Brzezinski, Mika Brzezinski, lose their mind. Check this out. How do the Democrats, how do all of us on that side say January 6th was wrong? If you can have the same pitches going on on college campus. Lord, don't make a parallel with January 6th. You lose tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:11:00 That has happened, though. OK, that has happened. So we know what's going on here. That has happened, though. Okay. That has happened. Just so we know what's going on here. Al Sharpton. Even a blind squirrel gets a nut sometimes, folks.
Starting point is 00:11:11 This is how bad this is blowing up in their face. Even dopes like Al Sharpton are starting to openly wonder how bad this looks for the Democrats who are running. I want you to keep in mind, contrasts. Contrasts in elections are what destroy candidates. Bad ones. When someone looks better than you on an issue and you can put them side by side. It's no different than two used cars for sale. That's what an election is. You put the car, you drive them up next to each other. I want that one. Contrasts are terrible. Biden, on one hand, is running as the
Starting point is 00:11:44 law and order guy. No one's above the law. I'm going to put Donald Trump in jail, put these January 6th people in the gulag. And on the other hand, he's letting a bunch of left-wing agitator groups beat the shit out of people on college campuses and telling black and Jewish people,
Starting point is 00:11:58 no, that's the colored entrance and the Jew entrance. I'm not, and the segregation's not, not my thing. No good. Nah, no thanks. No distractions, folks. No distractions. We've got a country to save. It ain't going to save itself, man. No distractions. I've told you about this. We've got chaos in the streets. You've got economic stagflation. We're going to cover all this in this next segment here. We've got censorship left and right. This is one of those pivotal moments in American history that you should be grateful to be alive because you have the opportunity to do something great right now. You have the opportunity to save your country. Greater men than me before my grandfather and
Starting point is 00:12:40 others fought in great world wars to hand you down this glorious place. Now, our fight may not be as noble as that, but it's a fight for our time. You got a country to save. Absolutely no distractions right now. I don't want to hear anything else about vacating speakers, dogs, nothing. I'm not interested. Cover it after the election. Not now. Why? Look at this complete rotting piece of meat we're running against. You're going to forfeit the country over the four years of this guy. He did it again, folks. Look at him. And the ground at a campaign stop. One, he grabs this, he grabs a woman's hand. He won't let go, which is creepy. He has no idea what he's doing again.
Starting point is 00:13:26 He's looking around, completely confused. The man is a fossil. The guy, folks, and this is not about age, okay? There are a lot of older people who can be ambulatory and move around and speak in complete sentences. This guy's not one of them. We cannot lose to this absolute buffoon. I'm going to take a quick break here.
Starting point is 00:13:48 I'm going to show you what I'm talking about here. Take a break a little early because I want to get to this censorship segment here and show you how. I'm going to show you exactly what the left does. Don't ever fall for this. Pisses me off more than anything. When the left plays to our principles, the left, Joe Biden, Rashida Tlaib. Oh, we're all about free speech now. That's not why they're doing this. I'll play it for you in live time and I'll show you how they're trying
Starting point is 00:14:11 to play us like a violin. Don't fall for it. Folks, patriotmobile.com slash Dan. Whenever something goes viral, you've got these fake patriotic companies.

Starting point is 00:15:25 are we? We're the opposite. We're the free speech party. We're the economic growth party. We're the party of law and order. And you will get a night late 1960s result again, where we did the exact same thing and we smoked the Democrats. Here's Biden short video here, but here's Biden yesterday. He does not want to take a stand on this chaos because they killed the Jews crowd. They've got this guy like a fishhawk in his jaw. So what is he doing? He's playing to your ears. He's like, oh man, this is a free speech fight. Free speech. They've been on these campuses 10 days. We're breaking and entering into buildings. No one stopped their free speech. Listen to him. He's trying to play you. Don't
Starting point is 00:16:05 fall for it. Check this out. As president, I will always defend free speech and I will always be just as strong as standing up for the rule of law. You see what he's doing here? He understands. Remember yesterday during the podcast, I showed you the political playbook, political playbook, the snippet from yesterday's show, where the White House is now terrified that the photos, the snapshots and the soundbites for them are terrible. They are awful. They see the contrast. Trump was the law and order guy. There's chaos now. They see this stuff. So they need an out. So they start using a highway ramp, using conservative words, assuming that conservatives go, well, well, he's right.
Starting point is 00:16:45 It is a free speech issue. These are not free speech champions, folks. I hope everyone understands that. Here, this broke the other day. They had a hearing up on Capitol Hill about censorship. Do you remember Facebook and the lab leak theory? The lab leak theory, which is probably no longer a theory, it's probably confirmed if you followed any of the research on this. Why was that censored on Facebook? Well, looky here. Congressman Jim Jordan has some documents. In July of 2021, Nick Clegg, who worked for Facebook,
Starting point is 00:17:23 asked why Facebook had been censoring the lab leak theory of COVID's origins. The answer could not have been clearer. We have these emails, by the way. They're real. No one disputes them. Because we were under pressure from the administration, they note, we shouldn't have done it.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Tony, I thought they were there. I thought he's a big... Oh, there's the email. Look, right there. Look, from Facebook. From Rob Flaherty. EOP, which stands for Executive Office of the President. White House. There you go, right there. Look, it's right there.
Starting point is 00:17:55 You can read it yourself. I thought Joe Biden's a big free speech advocate. He's using these words to suck you in because he thinks we're stupid. We're not. His people are, though. He was Flaherty up on Capitol Hill yesterday.
Starting point is 00:18:08 This is one of the White House's top advisors on COVID. He works for you, the taxpayer. You paid this guy. They are not. These are anti-free speech savages, these people. They will shut you down in a minute if they win this next
Starting point is 00:18:24 election. No freaking distractions. Here's Rob Flaherty up on Capitol Hill admitting, admitting that the White House pressured the social media companies and platforms to exercise editorial control, which is strange because they're not editorial places. They're not publishers. They're platforms. They're not newspapers. Watch this. Social media companies make editorial decisions at the scale of hundreds of millions per second. They decide what content gets shown to whom and in what order. My office encouraged those companies to exercise that editorial discretion to avoid spreading inaccurate information, particularly related to the ongoing pandemic. Here's the problem.
Starting point is 00:19:12 The government's not supposed to be pressuring organizations to exercise editorial control. They claim they don't have because they're just platforms. They're not supposed to be doing that. And the hilarious thing about this is he says, listen, we were just trying to stop misinformation. We just trying to stop inaccurate information. Everything they censored was accurate. The lab leak theory masks are bullshit. The vaccine does not stop the spread of COVID.
Starting point is 00:19:44 Nothing they did was correct. Everything they censored was wrong. They weren't on the right side of anything. These are the big free speech warriors. Folks, I'm going to take a hard pass on that. Total BS. These people hate you. They hate free speech.
Starting point is 00:20:01 There are no distractions. We are the free speech party, not them. Here's the same guy in the same hearing. He just said, hey, we pushed these people to censor because we thought it was misinformation. This is a little bit longer. It's about a minute. But the same guy can barely explain what misinformation is in the same damn hearing. Take a look. Mr. Flaherty, when the Biden administration told Americans that the vaccinated couldn't get the virus, were they guessing or lying? Congressman, you know, we, you know, I think, first of all, it's important to remember my role in this discussion, which is as a communicator on behalf of the. You work for the Biden administration. Your assistant is the president.
Starting point is 00:20:41 It's a simple question. When they told the American people that if you get the vaccine, you will not get the virus, was that a guess or was that a lie? Congressman, we were communicating on behalf of the administration, we were communicating the best information provided by some of the best medical scientists in the world in Atlanta, Bethesda, and beyond. So our role is- Let me ask you a simple question. Can the people who got the vaccine, could they still get the virus? Congressman, again, I'm not here as a medical expert. No, no, that's just common. Everyone knows that. Of course they can. I'm just asking you a simple question. Well, let me do it this way. What's the definition of misinformation?
Starting point is 00:21:16 Congressman, you know, certainly there's different and varying definitions of misinformation. At the end of the day, the platform. Tell me the difference. Tell me what misinformation is. definitions of mis- and disinformation. At the end of the day, the platform- Tell me the difference. Tell me what misinformation is. Congressman, these are decisions that the platforms ultimately get to make about how- I'm not asking that. I'm a simple question. What's misinformation? Well, Congressman, I think it's important in the context of these- How about you, Professor? Can you tell me what misinformation is?
Starting point is 00:21:40 What an absolute craftsman. And I mean toolbox. First, he says, hey, we had a sensor information. You just heard it. Brothers and sisters, you just heard it. He said, we pushed the platforms to get rid of inaccurate information, which they're not allowed to do. And then when he's asked, well, what's misinformation? He doesn't know. And then when he's asked a simple question about the vaccine, he says, well, I'm not a medical expert. Holy freaking. So you're not a medical expert, but you're censoring medical information because it's inaccurate misinformation. What's misinformation? Shit, man. I don't know what that is either. Just guess,
Starting point is 00:22:28 bro. Just guess and save your freaking dignity. Look at Tony going dark. Really? Going full dark, bro? Tony's going full. He's got the cons. All of it's all he got the cons today.
Starting point is 00:22:44 It's true. Do you see what he just said? We push these platforms to censor inaccurate medical information. Are you a doctor? No. Do you have any medical background? No, I don't. Well, then what's the medical misinformation?
Starting point is 00:23:00 I don't even know what misinformation is either. You don't know shit. These are the free speech wars. Do not dare fall for this. I will be personally in my soul of souls and heart of hearts be devastated if another conservative falls for this trick that any of this shit going on on campus is about free speech. These people would censor you and ban you into the phantom zone of social media forever if they get reelected. Remember this YouTube tweet too? Here's another one. Sorry, this tweet from Jim Jordan. It wasn't just Google. It wasn't just Amazon. It wasn't just Twitter pre-Elon. It wasn't just Facebook.
Starting point is 00:23:41 It was ScrewTube. Again, disclosure, I'm an investor in Rumble, their primary competitor out there. However, YouTube sucks and has nothing to do with my investment. Here's Jordan. But before this proposal was finalized, YouTube was running its policies by the Biden White House to get their, quote,
Starting point is 00:23:59 feedback. Look, we got the emails right there. Hi, Rob. Same guy. Look, there's the email right there. Hi, Rob. Same guy. Look, there's the email. Rob Flaherty, EOP, Executive Officer President. So YouTube's running their policies on COVID-19 and vaccines by the White House. To a dude, I just played the freaking video who says he doesn't know shit about medicine and doesn't even know what misinformation is. And we're crazy. The dipshits at YouTube, by the way, who banned me after we quit. Our last video on YouTube, our last video
Starting point is 00:24:38 was why I'm leaving YouTube. And then because they were embarrassed, because I went over to Rumble and have three, four times the subs over there on Rumble and followers, YouTube got their underwear in a bunch. And YouTube said, we're going to ban him. And they needed an excuse. So they said, he's telling people masks don't work. They don't. That's right.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Again. There's another free speech warrior in Congress Rashida Tlaib Big free speech, you know that? Rashida Tlaib, warrior for free speech Tony, cue this one up Just listen to her It's all about free speech now When she's not supporting terrorists
Starting point is 00:25:20 They are playing you suckers Don't even dare fall in this trap. Check this out. I am deeply concerned about the escalating repression of First Amendment protected speech and assembly on college campuses across our country. To all the elected university boards and appointed presidents, it needs to be very clear. Your students' constitutional rights doesn't end when they enter your campus grounds. I think I made my point. I'm sorry. I know sometimes I get.
Starting point is 00:25:53 It's because I know it's not you and you're probably frustrated. But they are doing this on purpose. Whenever you hear lefties speaking our language, they're doing it for a reason. They're trying to distract you from their pro-terrorist, kill the Jews stuff, Occupy World, whatever it is. Don't fall for it, please. This woman hates free speech. She would censor you in a second the minute you told the truth about what she calls Palestine or anything else for that matter. All right, quick break, and I'm going to get to this on the other side. Absolutely no distractions. I'm not having it. I'm sorry. I'm not going to let it happen. This show is committed to winning this election no matter what. We are
Starting point is 00:26:34 not losing. I'm not going to let it happen. We are all going to drag each other across this darn finish line if we have to. This economy is a mess. There is something really, really bad happening right now. We have not seen since the early 80s. I was like six or seven years old. But it was bad. And you ask anyone who was alive, the economy was in trouble. And there are signs of it percolating right now. And this could be an apocalypse for the left. I'll show you what I mean.

Give me your feedback in the chat. It's great coffee. Okay. First, I'm going to put up
Starting point is 00:29:35 this picture. I showed it yesterday as kind of a little bit of a teaser. I want you to remember the 1980 election. You may be saying to yourself, well, I wasn't alive for the 1980 election, or maybe you were. It's fine. You don't need to be alive. I just want you to look at this map because the map is pretty devastating. When you see all of the places that Jimmy Carter, who was the incumbent president, won, they were very few. He won West Virginia. He won Rhode Island. What else? Minnesota, Maryland, and Hawaii. And he got smoked everywhere else. Do you know how hard it is for an incumbent president to get absolutely destroyed by,
Starting point is 00:30:12 and at that point it was Ronald Reagan. Reagan was, Reagan basically like eviscerated this guy. What was going on at the time? Foreign policy chaos, the hostage crisis overseas, very bad. Nobody likes chaos, right? But stagflation was going on too. Thanks, Dave. That's the map right there.
Starting point is 00:30:34 It's very red, as you can tell. Very red. Everywhere. Oh, Georgia too, where Carter was from. It's not good. Folks, I don't want to get ahead of myself because red wave talk is absolutely prohibited. I'm just saying now, if we can keep the distractions out and stay focused with the chaos and the censorship and the bullshit and stagflation, we could be in for a very good night in the
Starting point is 00:31:04 could. I want you to watch this video. I love this guy, Peter St. Ange. He's an economist. This guy's great. He does these videos. He's talking about stagflation. In other words, it's two things, economic stagnation and inflation.
Starting point is 00:31:17 Both of them are bad, but put together where the economy's not growing, but prices are apocalyptic for any president. Watch this. Last week, we got some ugly economic numbers confirming what I've been warning that prices are jumping while the economy is grinding to a halt. As Business Insider put it, quote, the U.S. economy may be barreling towards stagflation and outcome worse than recession. That's quite the understatement. In fact, the last time we went into stagflation and outcome worse than recession. That's quite the understatement. In fact, the last time we went into stagflation in the 1970s, we got years of double-digit unemployment together with years of double-digit inflation, and it took interest rates hitting nearly 20% to finally knock it out at the cost of twin recessions that at the time were the worst
Starting point is 00:32:02 since the Great Depression. So forget maestro jerome powell soft landing he may have screwed us all the way to the 70s in fact jp morgan's ceo jamie diamond said just that that the economy quote looks more like the 70s than we've ever seen before you know uh what's that line i hate man it's so stupid in some cases, they're just so relevant to the topic at hand. You know, history doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes. You know, I love all the people out there who always tell me, like, oh, the country's permanently divided. There's always going to be these tight presidential elections. There's never going to be another Republican landslide again.
Starting point is 00:32:43 They say it like it didn't happen. Like it didn't. I'm only 49, folks. It happened twice. It happened in 1980, the election I just showed you, where Reagan defeated the incumbent Democrat. And it happened in Reagan's reelection, where shockingly, the map I showed you before was even worse for the Democrats. The only place Walter Mondale in 1984 won was Minnesota, and he barely won that. It was one of the biggest landslides in electoral history. When you combine all of these ingredients into a witch's brew, don't be surprised when it poisons the host.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Censoring people. They're going to be pissed off. A lot of Americans didn't like their social media being censored. Street chaos. A lot of Americans are going to get robbed and mugged, and their kids are going to be told, this isn't the Jewish entrance, it's over there. You thought they were going to like that?
Starting point is 00:33:41 You wonder why they're all pissed off at you? People get mugged. They get robbed. They come home. They tell their parents. People get tired of this shit. You think people want to see prices going through the roof while the economy's barely growing?
Starting point is 00:33:55 If the economy's not growing, their paycheck's not growing. So newsflash, liberals, when your paycheck's here and boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, prices are there going up, you're losing, bro. The writing on the wall is everywhere. I didn't want to say distraction. It sounds like I'm distracted so many times. You can see how committed I am to this.
Starting point is 00:34:17 It's not my election, folks. I don't want a job. I'm not asking for a job. I'm not asking for anything. I just want to see my country put back on the straight and narrow. That's it. I promise you it's my only motivation. It is critical that we stop this lawfare and all this other stuff. This is a great clip. I want you to watch this. This is Mike Davis, a commentator I'm really starting to enjoy. The mics, Mike Benz and Mike Davis have been amazing. Davis is talking about another component of this, that if we win, we laser focus on this thing and we can pull off a route, popular vote,
Starting point is 00:34:58 electoral college vote, and I mean really embarrass these guys and demoralize them for a little bit, we have a chance to get our institutions back and we better damn well use it. This is an important clip about lawfare and what Donald Trump should do if we win. Check this out. I think the Supreme Court is going to remand this case. They're going to hold very narrowly that there is a criminal immunity for official acts. They're going to remand this case to DC Obama judge Tanya Shutkin. She's going to have to hold an evidentiary hearing with witnesses and she's
Starting point is 00:35:30 going to have to make the first determination. What are official acts? For example, Jack Smith alleges that Trump was contemplating firing his acting attorney general. That's clearly an official act. A private citizen can't do that. So that's one example. And then Judge Shutkin's going to have to determine what are personal acts. And then the Supreme Court in the meantime is going to decide the Fisher case on the obstruction charges against President Trump and these January 6 defendants where the Biden Justice Department contorted federal law, this post-Enron obstruction statute to go after corporate malfeasance, to go after their political enemies. The Supreme Court's likely going to reverse that. So there
Starting point is 00:36:10 goes two of the four charges by Jack Smith against Trump. And then after this presidential immunity hearing by Shucken and the appeals, the immediate appeal to the D.C. Circuit and even the Supreme Court again, I bet you 20 percent of Jack Smith's case is going to remain after this process is done. It's not going to get tried before the election. President Trump is going to win, and his acting attorney general on day one is going to correctly dismiss these bogus charges with prejudice and make them go away. His acting attorney general is not going to do squat if we don't win. But the first part of it, I should have teed that up a little better. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:36:48 The first part of that is important too, because if we win, and gosh, I hope we do for the sake of this country, not only is the acting attorney general probably going to move on this stuff, which is great because we got to stop this lawfare and save our country, but the Supreme court is likely going to rule in Donald Trump's favor about the contours of what the president is immune to from prosecution, which is going to finalize and codify what they can't do, because they're going to try to go after him again in office and impeach him and get him out of office.
Starting point is 00:37:17 He's going to be, in other words, a stronger president this time around. He'll understand the personnel and everything. Speaking of personnel, I just saw last night, there's some rumors going around in the media. And let me just say in advance, I would take all of this with not only a grain of salt, but a boulder of salt. Donald Trump is notoriously close, a close hold guy when it comes to personnel stuff. He will not, I'm telling you, I know the president very well. He does not give up the gambit on this. He just doesn't. So people are reporting out there, uh, Berggrum, Rubio, Vance, and Scott are the four finalists for VP.
Starting point is 00:37:58 Uh, I'm just telling you, knowing Donald Trump, like I know him, I sincerely doubt he has given that up to the media. I would bet that list is actually much longer than that. I'm sure they're on it. And I'm sure they may be on that final list, but I promise you, whatever scoop you think you're hearing, take it from me. He is very, anyone who knows him, he is a very close hold on this stuff. A couple more stories I want to get to on this Friday because they're really important. The chaos argument going forward and the contrast for us is going to be key. We got to stay focused on it because it paints an ugly picture for Joe Biden.
Starting point is 00:38:33 Bill Mellugian tweeted this out the other day. These 15 cities that migrants are being flown into. Folks, look at these. These are major population centers. This is the kind of thing that's meant to tilt an election. Miami, Florida, New York City, Houston, Orlando, Los Angeles, Tampa, Dallas, 91,000 flown to Miami, illegal immigrants by the Biden administration. I want you to keep in mind the mechanics of what
Starting point is 00:38:57 he's doing here. The Democrats are going to argue to you, well, these people are migrants and they can't vote anyway. Folks, maybe. However, even if they can't, it's still destructive. Why? A lot of these places they are flying illegal immigrants to are swing states they think they can turn, which remember, the Electoral College, the Electoral College Act, where you get the turn, which remember the electoral college, the electoral college act where you get, you know, the constitution, which determines how we elect the president. It's electoral college votes. Electoral college votes are allocated by state. It's a number of representatives you have in Congress plus your two senators. So if you're a swing state losing population or a blue state losing population, you are going to lose in the next census. You are going to lose electors, presidential electors.
Starting point is 00:39:50 What Biden's clearly doing here is trying to turn swing states and get blue states bluer that are losing population to make sure they can ensure the presidency for them for many years. Did that make sense? I've explained it before, but I hope you get what I'm talking about. The population loss in blue states will make them less effective at electing a president because you won't have as many presidential electors. Why do you think he's picking swing states in many of these cases and blue states? Because he's trying to replace presidential electors to give the presidency to the next guy. The left is very strategic, man.
Starting point is 00:40:29 When they do stuff, they do it on purpose. These people aren't screwing around. And by the way, some of these people will slip through and figure out a way to vote if the left's involved with it at all. All right. A lot of people yesterday asked me about the James O'Keefe video. I never liked to be first on. Well, he was first, it's his story, but first on reporting on things because I want to make sure I go out and at least take a look at them first and make sure that, you know, they're accurate. Sometimes it's better to be right than to be first. So James O'Keefe did an undercover video
Starting point is 00:40:55 with his team over there. He does these undercover videos. You know who he is. He was with Project Veritas and now he's out on his own. And O'Keefe got this video of a guy who claims to be a CIA employee and shows his ID. Apparently it's true because according to James O'Keefe's call with the CIA, he's been let go.
Starting point is 00:41:14 And the guy says some really, really, I mean crazy stuff on this hidden video thing. Now, I want to say in advance, I don't know what level of access this guy had. I have zero doubt that there's a lot of puffery with a lot of these people when they're out on hidden cameras because they don't know. They think they're talking to someone, a friend or a girl or whatever, and they're doing some chest pumping. But that doesn't matter to me as much. What matters to me as much is this guy is really confident in claiming that somebody, at least inside the CIA, told him about them selectively keeping information from Donald Trump when he was president of the United States, spying on him. I mean, this is serious stuff. This is a newsworthy story.
Starting point is 00:41:59 Take a look. I work at the CIA. I do cyber operations. I've been doing it for a long time. So how long have you been working at the CIA? Since 2008. Okay. I've also worked at MSA, yeah. And then I had a TSSCI with a full-scale polygraph, and that means that I'm fully vetted. Amjad Fasisi shows her his CIA identification badge. No, where does it say things?
Starting point is 00:42:22 It doesn't. That's the point. That's the point. That's the point. What's CMC? China Mission Center, darling. That's my mission center. Gotcha. Amjad talks about how the CIA kept information from Trump. We kept information from him.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Say it one more time. We kept information from him. From Trump? Yes. He said he didn't hear it. Now the CIA is saying this guy was let go, but it's pretty clear that he worked there. So a couple of issues with this. Number one, if you're working at the CIA, and I don't care what your position was, sharpening pencils, typing up documents, cleaning the floor.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Why are you out there talking to someone about it like that? That sounds like a really genuinely bad idea. But for some out there eager to kind of make this story go away a little bit, saying, oh, this guy was just a low-level guy. Listen, folks, I worked in the federal government. And the thing is, people talk. And I can tell you right now, there were people in the Secret Service who were, I don't know what you'd call a low-level position,
Starting point is 00:43:25 like OSTs or PSTs, protective support technicians. When I say low-level, I just mean GS level. There are actual government scales of pay. They may have been GS-5s, GS-7s. A journeyman agent is a GS-13, you know, more than double that on the scale, okay? People talk. These guys, even at the low level, they're in protective motorcades. They're out in security rooms with guys.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Guys are smoking and joking around, and they hear a lot of stuff. So is this guy telling the truth about the CIA kept information from Donald Trump? I don't know. I don't know this cat. Apparently the badge level he had, he wasn't some like big higher up supervisor. But I'm telling you right now, when a CIA guy is on tape telling everyone openly
Starting point is 00:44:13 or telling this person on a hidden camera video that Trump was an idiot and we kept all this information from him, it's a freaking story. And we should pay attention to it. All right, I'm going to wrap up a little early today, folks, because just a bit of personal news. I am headed up to Nashville. So here's what's going to happen. I'm going up for a work trip. Actually, I'm just going to hit a concert while I'm there. I'm going up to do an online book signing for a premiere. I'm getting
Starting point is 00:44:42 a lot of requests for my new book, the gift of failure for autographed copies. And I obviously can't send them out personally because we just don't have the time or the capability in the house and studio to do that. So we're going to do is we're going to go up to premiere. They're going to record it. So, you know, you can actually see me there signing them. Uh, they're going to say, we'll release the video and there'll be a link to buy a signed copy of my new book, the gift of failure. I'll have that for you coming up. I'll be there with the lovely Paula, who I promise always looks amazing. And we'll do a little bit of like a Q and A between the both of us and you can
Starting point is 00:45:13 watch it and check it out. And if you'd like an autographed copy, I will get you the link next week. And then Saturday while I'm up there, figured we'd catch the Morgan Marlin concert. So if you're going to be there at Nissan, come check us out over in Nashville. I may stop by Johnny Rich's bar Saturday night too. So we'll see. So if you want to come by and say hello, maybe we'll catch you there.
Starting point is 00:45:33 Hey, thanks again for tuning in. A little bit of an abbreviated version today. I just got to catch a flight. That's why business calls. Thanks so much. Evita and Jim will be on the radio show. Don't miss it. Also, one more thing. I forgot to tell him, Tony. I will be off on Monday, but we will have an awesome best of.
