Yeah, we had a little technical snafu before the show yesterday. But this morning, kids are ready to rock and roll. And question numero uno of the day. Is there anyone the FBI and DOJ wasn't spying on? Anyone? Folks, it's now clear we live in a third world republic. That's clear. It may not be an economic third world republic, granted, or a self-defense one, because our

military is still the strongest in the world, thanks to the men and women who serve. But our police state is real. Our police state is right now no different from things you're seeing uh in cuba north korea now i don't like hyper hyperbole we haven't gotten to the the uh mass systemic violence by the police state we have had a lot we have had we have had some incidents but we haven't gotten to the systemic violence portion. But folks, sadly, I don't know where this is going to end. So yesterday I'm getting ready to go to sleep as always about 830. Yes, it's pathetic. I'm an old man. That's okay. Kids falling apart a little bit. And I'm

watching some little bit of television and I see this segment come on. Devin Nunes, who is a good friend of mine. It turns out Devin Nunes was the chairman of a congressional committee looking into the FBI spying on Donald Trump. You know that, right? Devin Nunes, Republican congressman. Hey, you guys are spying on Trump. He was the face of this investigation. One of his chief investigators was a guy, good friend of this show, by the name of Kash Patel. Kash Patel knows everything about the FBI's massive spying operation on Donald Trump, a criminal enterprise they were involved in the FBI. So now, given that Devin Nunes had some oversight powers over them, you would think it would be really weird if Devin Nunes, an elected member of Congress, right? He's actually a politician

accountable to the people who was given responsibility for oversight here and is looking into this criminal enterprise spying on Donald Trump at the FBI. You would think it would be really weird if they were in turn then spying on Devin Nunes for investigating them spying on Trump. You might say to yourself if you were a sane person,

that is bananas. No way they'd have the moose nuts to do that. Joe, wheelbarrow. They'd have to take them, drop them in the wheelbarrow. You'd be like, no way. Well, of course you'd be wrong, because I'm telling you, we are living in a third world, crazy, socialist style, police state regime right now.

There's zero question about it. Here, listen to Devin Nunes explain this last night. It looks like you were spied upon as well um what do you make of this now that we know it for sure well look at this point at this point Tucker it appears to be that it's not just a couple staff it looks like it probably is more we only have a couple subpoenas at this point. So we're, this is probably just the tip of the iceberg. And what this is, is by, remember, they targeted my lawyers. So, and if you go back to the timeframe, what was happening? We were in a brawl with the Department of Justice and the FBI because we caught them spying on the Trump campaign and other Republican operatives in 2016 that continued on to 2017. At this time, we had confronted high-level folks at the highest level of the Department of Justice

and the FBI saying that, look, we think you guys might have a problem here too. Maybe you should recuse yourself. Maybe you shouldn't be involved. You would have thought they would have got to the bottom of it. But instead, what they did is they did this cute little way of reverse targeting me by going after my staff to figure out how did we know this information? What were we going to do with this information? And this was all just months before we made this all public that the FBI used the Clinton and DNC dirt to spy on Trump and the Trump campaign. Okay, okay, so I never ever want to be accused of presenting to you problems with no solution. The solution to this problem of a now fully corrupted deep state,

the solution is an easy one. The only question is, are congressional Republicans, and hopefully the next Republican president, going to have the nerve to follow through? Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United States has the power to fire people in the executive branch. The political appointees do not have the civil service protections of rank and file type employees. Secret service agents at the GS nine, 11, 12, and 13 levels who are not politically, uh, appointed politically appointed directors and others in the SES program and other things like that. They have certain civil service

protections. A USA is assistant United States attorneys, uh, United States attorneys who run the justice department and choose to prosecute people. people, some of the people at the top of the FBI. These people are political appointees. If you are not willing, as incoming members of Congress and a potentially Republican president in the next election, to get rid of these people, take a Hoover vacuum to this grotesque, deep state we're living in right now, then you are not a patriot. You are not a lover of liberty. You have not sworn allegiance to the Constitution

and you should step aside immediately and give your position over and let someone run for it who has the guts to do what has to be done. The FBI cannot continue existing going forward like this. They simply cannot. The DOJ either.

It's not a question of are we living with a corrupt deep state. That's not a question. The question is how deep and pervasive is it? And every day we get more information that is worse than even our worst nightmares had anticipated. So Donald Trump was on my show yesterday while we're on this topic of the deep state he was on my show as this entire January 6th star chamber thing was coming down so yesterday speaking of a deep state corrupted DOJ I'm very concerned about what the DOJ is going to do because the January

6th star chamber issued a criminal referral on President Trump yesterday to the DOJ. Now, I want to be clear about a couple things. This criminal referral, so the January 6th committee says to the DOJ, we recommend you prosecute President Trump for these charges. It was an insurrection, a conspiracy. It's all nonsense. There's a couple things about this first. Number one, these are non-binding. Obviously, they're not prosecutors, the members of the January 6th committee.

Kryon, Kinzinger, Benny Thompson, Schiff, Cheney, all the losers, right? It's not binding. Meaning the DOJ can choose to accept the referral and choose to indict Donald Trump, or they can't. It's basically a piece of paper. Second, this is very politically risky. And I don't know what's going to happen. I want to be clear. I'm not taking sides. I'm 50-50 on this, but I'm not absolutely convinced that Merrick Garland is going to choose to indict Trump here. It's not because Merrick Garland is a good guy, is a decent guy, or cares about being the attorney general. He doesn't care

about any of that. He is a straight up liberal activist. It's that Merrick Garland doesn't want to empower Donald Trump. And this case is so pathetic and so weak that ladies and gentlemen, there is a really, really good chance that the image Merrick Garland fears the most. Indicting you guys follow me here, indicting Donald Trump and having Donald Trump win the case and walk out with his hands in the air is Merrick Garland's biggest fear.

So I'm 50-50 on if he's going to take the case or not. Leaning pro, yes, he's going to choose to indict Trump because he's crazy and he's a liberal activist and they just want to hurt Trump and make sure he never runs for office again. That's the pro again, the con I just explained. There's a really good chance. Trump wins this case in overwhelming fashion and humiliates the DOJ. I want to make one other point too, that they're trying to charge Trump with insurrection, which is a loser in a federal trial because all of the January 6th defendants who they've arrested and tried to prosecute, how many do you think they've charged with insurrection?

Anybody have a guess? Guy, Joe? No. Guy says zero. Joe, would you venture to? I'll go with Guy. Yeah. You'll go with Guy with zero?

You'd both be correct. Zero. So you're going to charge Donald Trump with being the leader of an insurrection, yet the insurrectionists weren't charged with insurrection? How the hell are you going to charge him with an insurrection, you idiots? Weird. Weird. Always weird.

They haven't had a weird in a while. Donald Trump was on my show yesterday. And as I said, opening up the show, NBC was forced to cover it, which must have killed him, by the way. Here's NBC's coverage of Trump's response to the referral for his indictment from the loser january 6th committee check this out one republican who the committee referred to the ethics committee for defying its subpoena calling it a kangaroo court desperate for revenge against mr trump a response mr trump echoed in a radio interview conducted during the hearing. We have all Democrats and Republicans in very

poor standing, two of them. I mean, the whole thing. It's a kangaroo court. What can I say? The committee also referring Trump lawyer John Eastman to the DOJ on charges of obstruction of an official proceeding and conspiracy to defraud the United States. Eastman responding with a statement calling the committee's work quote pretend prosecutors designed to create political advantage for the democratic party the committee plans to release their full report on wednesday today releasing a 154 page summary of their findings describing the scheme to overturn the election results they outlined over 10 public hearings yeah joe he says we're like the harry pot, he who shall not be named.

And Donald Trump was on a radio show. It just would kill them to mention that. He was on the Dan Bongino show. Of course, they're not going to mention that. But as you'll see, Donald Trump responded appropriately. Of course, it's a kangaroo court. But the difference is it's dangerous.

This is more of a star chamber. This is more of an inquisition type event where you have people, Liz Cheney, Kinzinger, Benny Thompson, Schiff, all these other zeros. They go in there with this preconceived notion of guilt. That is not a court. Folks, our justice system, I opened up the show this way for a reason. Our justice system and our FBI are now completely corrupted. I'm very sorry to tell you, and this really pains me, having been a federal agent myself

and having paid no attention to politics in my job duties at all. None. I can assure you of that. Whether you were a Democrat or Republican didn't affect one bit how I did my job or who I investigated. I'm very sorry to tell you your FBI is completely broken and you are not safe from them if you are a conservative and especially a prominent one. The evidence is everywhere. The treatment of Roger Stone, the treatment of Peter Navarro, the treatment of Steve Bannon, the treatment of January 6th defendants. Ladies and gentlemen, you are not safe. That is not a statement of exaggeration for effect, for clicks. I don't care about any of that. It's Christmas week. I'm telling you now, until the FBI is disbanded or completely reformed, root and branch ripped out and they start from scratch and finding out who's the person on the FBI who are loyal to the cause and those who are loyal to the Democrat Party.

You are not safe from these people. I am not kidding. Listen to what I just told you. It has to be mission number one when we take back to Congress and hopefully the presidency in 2024. You do not live in a constitutional republic anymore. Please stop if you believe that. I need to disabuse you of that notion immediately because you'll be next. Pro-lifers, MAGA people, Trump supporters, you are all going to be targets at some point

if you gain enough prominence that you're a threat to these people. Here is more proof about how corrupted, fully corrupted our DOJ FBI ecosystem is. This woman apparently was a former federal prosecutor, Vance or something. She was on a cable news show yesterday. Former federal prosecutor. In other words, an assistant United States attorney had the ability to go out and get you charged for a crime. The woman uses the single dumbest analogy I've ever heard. She compares the January 6th Star Chamber to the Mueller report and claims outlandishly, just making it up, that there was a bunch of evidence that they didn't get and was withheld and all that stuff. Really? Then how come they weren't charged with obstruction of justice? Fascinating logic. Take a listen. When the Mueller report first came out in that first

part of the report talking about the campaign's potential coordination with Russia, Mueller concluded that he simply could not talk conclusively about what happened because so much of the evidence that they needed, the testimony that they needed, had been withheld from them. Witnesses wouldn't talk. Some of the evidence was located out of their reach. And so they said, had we been able to see all of the evidence, we might have reached different conclusions. But here's everything that we've got. Now we see an echo of that happening. I guess these are fitting bookends for the Trump presidency. Obstruction of justice, which they so often tried to dismiss as saying it was just a process crime, as though somehow it didn't matter. And now we see how important legal process is,

because ultimately the criminal justice system tries to get at the truth and the truth is how we get at accountability. What chairman Thompson told us was so incredibly important here. If we were going to prevent a repeat of January 6th folks, this woman had the power to prosecute you with a crime has no idea what she's talking about. Trump wasn't charged with obstruction of justice during the Mueller trial, during the Mueller inquisition, during the Mueller hearing. What are you talking about? And the Mueller report, she obviously didn't read it because it said, and I quote, the investigation did not establish. Let me read that line again for the lady here. The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.

Can she read? These are the kind of morons that are in the federal government right now prosecuting people like you. This is devastating. I can't tell you how disappointed. in the federal government right now, prosecuting people like you. This is devastating. I can't tell you how disappointed I am. I was in the, you know, I got on in 1999, 20 years ago as a federal agent. I'm telling you, I never one time had a United States attorney

inject their politics into a situation, ever. I don't know what their politics were. That was the ultimate compliment. There were some good attorneys, some not that great, but I never had one of them where I had to go back to my boss and be like, hey,

my boss was Marty at the time in the Secret Service. Marty, we got a problem here. This United States attorney's, you know, talking about politics when there should be a strict criminal trial. Never.

What has happened to these people? She can't read the Mueller report? Folks, this is all happening as Twitter files drop. Seven happened yesterday. And again, however bad you think this stuff is, it's even worse. Michael Schellenberger had the drop. It happened yesterday while I was on the air again, the radio show. The radio show yesterday was crazy. I had Donald Trump on. The January 6th hearing starts up again. Schellenberger does drop seven, and drop seven is, again, totally bananas. Jim Baker, it turns out, Schellenberger Street, Jim Baker, the FBI lawyer who moved laterally right over to Twitter.

This is an FBI lawyer knee deep in the operation to spy on Donald Trump. Jim Baker leaves to go over to Twitter. Twitter obviously is a government partner in spying. Obviously, they're taking on the FBI's dead weight. Baker. Baker knows from his FBI contact, he must know, he must know if this guy's even remotely competent,

that the Hunter Biden laptop is real because the FBI has the laptop. Yet Schellenberger notes that Twitter's Yoel Roth, Baker repeatedly insists him that the Hunter Biden materials are either fake, tacked, or both in violation of Twitter policy. Baker does so over email and in a Google doc on October 14th and 15th.

He knows Baker must know these things are real. He has not a shred of evidence whatsoever that the Hunter Biden laptop is fake. Folks, how many times do I have to show you this? It's the Hunter Biden receipt for the Hunter Biden laptop signed by Hunter Biden with Hunter Biden's address and phone number dropped off by Hunter Biden. How many times do I have to show you that? Can you imagine a laptop of Donald Trump doing crack?

On his sex tape? Taking payoffs from a foreign government? He gives a computer over with that information on there. He signs it and drops it off and a guy witnesses him do it. And the FBI goes, we have no evidence it's his. I'm going to read his emails in a minute to show you how corrupt these people are. This band, this organization immediately if you want your country back. Let me take a quick break here.

Knee deep in the operation to spy on Trump He's disgraced The fact that he disgraced himself And the FBI makes him the perfect candidate To go over and work at Twitter Where he tells the Twitter people He says, one additional comment Talking about the Hunter Biden laptop.

This is Baker's email to Twitter executive Yoel Roth. One additional comment. I've seen some reliable cybersecurity folks question the authenticity of the emails in another way. I.e. that there's no metadata pertaining to them that's been released, and the formatting looks like they could be complete fabrications. That is completely made up. Come on. The FBI.

Dude. Yes. Yes, this is a Rob Schneider dude moment, dude. Remember the dude moment? It's 25 different ways or whatever to say dude. You got a serial killer around the court, dude. Dude. This is one of those, dude.

The guy's making this up. The FBI has the metadata. They have the laptop. They know it's real. What Baker's doing is passing misinformation, agitprop, over to Twitter people under the guise of being a former FBI guy to engage in a massive Soviet-style censorship operation

of damaging information to a Democrat candidate for president. That is obvious now. Here's the Google doc. Jim Baker again. Disgraced former FBI lawyer now working at Twitter. I support the conclusion we need more facts to assess whether the materials were hacked. You know who could give you those facts, Joe? The FBI he used to work at. They had the damn laptop.

Yeah. They had the laptop. At this stage, he notes, it is reasonable for us to assume that they may have been hacked, that is, and that the caution is warranted. There are some facts that indicate the materials may have been hacked, while there are others indicating that computer was either abandoned or the owner consented to allow the repair shop to access it for some purposes. We need more information. The FBI had the information for the 15th time. Now, here's the even more troubling part. In the Schellenberger drop yesterday, Here's the even more troubling part. In the Schellenberger drop yesterday,

it's noted clearly that right before this, right around this time of this Hunter Biden story breaking in the New York Post, the FBI threw a back channel called Teleporter, sends information over to Twitter. Because the information's apparently classified, this story is crazy, folks. And Twitter people don't have the classifications, the National Security Classifications Authority to read it.

The FBI then apparently deputizes some Twitter people and tries to get them classifications to read the information they sent on teleporter. What's the information? We don't know. Is it going to come out in the coming days? Another Twitter files drop? I hope so. We don't know what the FBI sends them, but clearly it's some classified information, probably in violation of the law to make them believe the Hunter Biden laptop is in fact hacked. Folks, this is shocking. Think about this.

Can we just put this in context? Guys, if I'm wearing a geese, I know geese like this story. I know it's driving everybody bananas. Folks, I need you to understand how devastating this story is. Just please put this in context for a second why I'm so freaking pissed off about this story. The FBI interferes in the 2016 election, inventing a fairy tale that the Russians are interfering to get Trump elected. They invent the whole thing, the whole thing. They then investigate Trump for four years on a charge they made up using their old director, Bob Mueller.

Then in 2020, so they can interfere in the election again, they say, we're interfering in 2020 and we're going to combine with Twitter, Joe, to prevent the interference from 2016 we made up from happening again. Twitter who have no business seeing this information and they give them information about a Russian hacking operation called APT 28, which has nothing at all to do at all with the Hunter Biden laptop. Here is this hapless. Oh, I'm sorry, Joe. I didn't mean to. No,

it makes Watergate look like a kiddie game. You know, you, you look at Watergate and you're like a couple of goofy hapless burglars broken to the dnc headquarters okay stupid that kind of stuff and now you're like wait wait wait the fbi interfered in two consecutive presidential elections in the future of american politics we're now in this hole with biden because of the fbi and they interfered in the second one using the excuse of the interference in the first one that they made up. Yeah, it makes perfect sense. I want you to watch this helpless loser, by the way.

I should say hapless loser. He's come off as helpless himself. Here's Yoel Roth, the guy James Baker's communicating with from Twitter. He was on a podcast with Kara Swisher. And in the podcast, he mentions this APT28. It's a Russian hacking group. I want you to pay very close attention. He's fed classified information on the bogus theory that the Russians are interfering again, like they did in 2016, even though the FBI made that up. And this group, APT28, has nothing at all to do with the Hunter Biden laptop. Listen to this guy do the buff talk.

You know buff talk? When losers like Yoel Roth, a total life loser, a guy with not a single shred of human dignity at all, just read his troubling tweets about very disturbing. A deeply troubled kid. He's a kid. Listen to him try to talk tough like, oh, it's federalist information about APT 28. My bells were going off. You were fed classified information. You got played like a tool, you loser. Listen to this. We learn about DC leaks and we learn about the intersection between APT 28, a unit of Russian military intelligence, a hacking group. And so the morning of the Hunter Biden story in the New York Post happens. And it was weird, right? We didn't know what to believe.

We didn't know what was true. There was smoke. And ultimately for me, it didn't reach a place where I was comfortable removing this content from Twitter, but it set off every single one of my finely tuned APT28 hack and leak campaign alarm so it looked possibly probably everything about it looked like a hack and leak oh folks this is so pathetic i used to see this

in my last line of work all the time these pathetic life losers who have no meaning to their lives at all they talk buff talk they heard it in a movie somewhere because they want to sound like they're in the know hey set off my apt 28 arm alarm bells you're fine by the way he notes that they're finely tuned joe they were so finely tuned that you totally missed the story that apt 28 had nothing at all to do with the hunter biden laptop and the fbi fed you that to play you like a fool and you fell right into the trap you imbecile because you were too stupid to figure out you were being played by deep staters you want to rage against the machine you got played by the machine idiot what a moron my friendly tuned apt-28s are trying to be trying to be like Starsky and Hutch. Dope.

Stuff used to get me sick. I used to hate that. Talk like a normal person. Freaking buff talk. It drives me bananas. All right. We're going to move on because this story, as you can tell,

after having written three books on the collapse of our government into a freaking third world police state. Gets me a little annoyed. Folks, again, I appreciate your patience. It's a busy week here.

but we really don't care. Joe and Guy and I break every single industry rule. It's not really a rule if you don't care about it. Pretty much, yeah. But they tell you, you know, don't talk about like slow weeks in the news. Why? Why not? It's a week before Christmas.

We didn't expect like bonkers numbers. But yesterday's show went crazy. And I think one of the reasons is people can't believe what's happening at our border. Like you're telling me this title 42, which is a COVID health measure, which enabled us to turn illegal migrants around and send them back, that we're going to let that lapse, even though we still have COVID and we still have a massive illegal immigration problem. This is national suicide, what we're doing. Yeah, it was going to lapse like tomorrow. It would create

a national security nightmare like you've never seen in your life. Watch yesterday's show. I think it's what caught on. I gave you the pure numbers. There'd be 14,000 people estimated a day entering the country totally illegally. Less than 1%. If half of 1% of those people turn out to be criminals, terrorists, fentanyl traffickers, child sex traffickers, of less than 1%, you're looking at upwards of 18,000 to 30,000 criminals a year entering the country. That's if less than 1% of them are bad guys, as we'd say. Do you have any idea the damage 18 to 30,000 people can do if they just committed one crime? That's 30,000 new victims. Nobody wants to talk about that. It is a national security nightmare.

Well, there's been a temporary, and I do mean temporary, reprieve. John Roberts from the Supreme Court stayed the lapsing of Title 42 until a hearing next week. Until the Republican AGs that sued get their say. So there's a, folks, listen, nobody should be, champagne, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I know you get this, but it only bought us at best a couple days. There are still people waiting by the tens of thousands at the border. I know you get this, but it only bought us at best a couple of days. There are still people waiting by the tens of thousands at the border for Title 42 to go bye bye. And you are looking at an invasion like you have not seen. And that's a fact.

Now, the Biden administration loves this. They want open borders. Don't believe their nonsense. Biden said it. Please come. Said it during the 2019 presidential debates. Everybody knows it. They are doing absolutely nothing to stop people from entering. That's a fact.

What they do afterwards is they take people in and ship them around the country. Don't tell me they're stopping people. How? What does stopping people. How? What is stopping people mean? You're stopping them temporarily while transporting them around the country. You're not stopping them from entering. Please stop. Here's Kareem jump here. Just straight up lying about the open border.

Check this out. It would be wrong to think that the border is open. It is not open. And I just want to be very very clear about that now she knows this is clearly clearly now here's the problem everyone else knows it's bull too why because there are cameras down at the border i'll show you a thermal image from fox news's bill malugian in minute. There are drones and cameras down. You can just watch people enter the country. Mexico, United States. Mexico, United States. Walk from Mexico into the United States. You can just watch it. So she knows she's lying. So what do they always do when they lie? Well, circle back to

the beginning of the show. Like when they lied about the Hunter Biden laptops, Russian disinformation. What do they do? They use the deep state and big tech and their media symbiotes to make sure that the lie gets suppressed. Now, see if you catch this. I tease these things too much sometimes. I'm just going to play this Karine Jean-Pierre clip, and I want you to see where I'm going with this. Check this this out we know smugglers will try to spread misinformation to take advantage of these vulnerable migrants but i want to be very clear here uh the fact is that the removal of title 42 does not mean the border is open uh anyone who suggests otherwise is simply doing the work of these smugglers who again are spreading misinformation and which are which is very dangerous okay this's a check for you guys too i mean technically you work here but you are

part of the audience you're the primary audience showing you but to the audience out there listening to it's not a quiz show did you what do you guys know where i was going with that why kareem jump here just specifically did what she just did and said what she just said it's dangerous you guys know yeah but that's yeah okay she's using a dangerous term but do you know why she's the key you have any idea okay okay i mean respect your honesty she's throwing the misinformation term out there as a nod to fact checkers she's saying the border is not open because we said so. And by the way, if you say so, pointing out the fact that the border's open,

we're telling you it's misinformation that's dangerous and you're doing the work of the smugglers. Guaranteed, Joe. We haven't done a, please flag it, 832. Please, it's December 20th. Thank you. Got it, babe. Why?

I love what he did. That's so hilarious. You're such a 60s rocker, guy. You got it,th thank you got it babe um why i love what he did that's so hilarious you're such a 60s rocker guy you got it babe you gotta do well you need like a long hair like you're like that ponytail or something like that steven tyler style with like some hairspray or something like that maybe the 80s band um watch mark my words i have been in this business my friend who does my social media for me the friend who does my social media for me, the friend who does my social media texted me yesterday after this clip. And he's the one who sent it to me. And he said, Dan, once you taught me to see this,

I can never unsee it. There will be a fact checker out tomorrow. Anybody who says the border is open, it'll probably be Bill McCarthy or Louis Jacobson or Yaka Breas, who despite the fact I can show you video like I'm going to show you right now, play that. We'll just put it.

We'll do a VO here. There it is right there. So VO voice. So we're talking industry terms here. That's night vision. Excuse me. Thermal camera imagery from Bill Malugin at the border with a drone. Those are illegal immigrants.

Lines of them. Lines. You can see the heat signature. If you want to see the video, go to rumble.com slash Bongino. Everywhere, night, day, midday, lunch, dinner time, just piling in the country. That is obviously hard evidence, video evidence of an open border. Watch the fact checkers make this story go away. Because what happens? The White House winks to them. They then go on Facebook where there's a partnership and the deep state White House uses the fact checkers to then

challenge articles on Facebook to make sure you don't see them. It's the most incredible thing I've ever seen. And if the border's not open, how did all of these people wind up in the El Paso airport? This is a rebel news reporter who did an amazing job, flew into the El Paso airport. For the liberals, that's in Texas. Flew into the El Paso airport and saw this unbelievable scene. Check this out. Where are you from?

Where are you from? Dominican. Dominican? Dominican? Where are you from? Colombia. Colombia. Adonison? Dominicana. Dominican? Dominicana? Adonison? Colombia. Colombia. What's up, guys?

Katie Davis Gort here with Rebel News. I just landed in El Paso, Texas, and here at the El Paso Airport is an influx of illegal immigrants sleeping on the airport floors. We are here to report on the border crisis because we don't think that the truth is being told what is really happening. And Title 42 is set to expire on Wednesday, essentially giving amnesty to all illegals that make their way across the border into the United States. So take a look at what's happening here in the airport. Folks, please watch the show on Rumble today. It's about the 39 minute mark or know, 39-minute mark or so.

Okay, a couple of stories I just want to get to first before I get to this Tim Robbins clip. Folks, Ronna McDaniel is the head of the Republican National Committee. She's running for reelection in a vote

that I believe takes place next month out in California. It's an inside baseball election. It's not inside baseball election. It's not a public election, which you don't go to your voting location and vote. It's the delegates, committee men, they vote for these people. It's an inside baseball election. I don't know Ronna McDaniel at all. I've never met her. I don't even think I've run into her in a green room. I have no idea. I'm just telling you that the GOP is lost and Ronna McDaniel was in charge while we locked, while we racked up the losses. It is time for a change. Now it's Washington times article. It's in my newsletter. Apparently she's trying to pull some RNC members back in who quote strayed from her election bid.

Folks, it's time to move on. I can't say in strong enough terms how we need someone different. I know Harmeet Dhillon well. She's always been a good lawyer. She's running. Listen to the folks voting on the inside. I don't know what my word matters or doesn't to you. You guys earned your spots. And ladies out there, you have the right to vote. You earned your own spots as committee people.

A lot of you ran in your own elections. And that's fair enough. But whatever it's worth, if you enjoy this show, Ronna's not the way to go. She just isn't. And I can tell you going forward, the problem you're going to have with Ronna, she doesn't have the support of almost anyone in the conservative ecosystem where we have the microphones, not Ronna. You've got to understand Ronna needs us, Ronna McDaniel. We don't need Ronna. And I'm not speaking for any other hosts, but just go down the list. And there's almost no one on her side anymore. It's time for a change. Change time is now. And change time is now because the Democrats keep voting for this stuff. An open border.

The Democrats keep voting for bankruptcy. How does Ronda McDaniel, I'm not blaming candidates who didn't do a good job. I'm not, you know, excuse me, absolving them of blame as well. But what, the candidates lose and Ronda doesn't? I'm sorry. We need a better way to frame to the American people the peril we're in. We've got an invasion at our southern border. It's a fact.

I just showed you the videos. We are going bankrupt. Rand Paul's going to be on my radio show later. He's got an op-ed in the New York Post. Again, be in my newsletter, Bongino.com slash newsletter, if you want to sign up. He notes the golden rule. What's my golden rule? You'll never be disappointed in politicians if you understand this rule. Most Republicans on Capitol Hill are really Democrats. No Democrats are really Republicans. He notes that the spending omnibus bill they want to pass this week, which you should be calling your congressman

and telling him a big no, is a bankruptcy bill. It adds another trillion dollars to our $31 trillion debt. Rand Paul notes in a piece, this is the biggest threat to our national security. Ladies and gentlemen, we are going de facto bankrupt.

We will either go bankrupt by inflation where your money is worthless, or we will go technically bankrupt where we can't pay our debts and we default. There is no third option unless we stop this spending now. There's still a chance. There is, yes. There is still a chance. We we have basically a couple years to fix this before we get into a debt spiral we'll never get out of just a few and that may be being generous yeah i wanted to play this i told you about it but right before the the break there so tim robbins is a lefty actor married to susan sarandon and uh you know that's fine like these guys this is the United States of America. I disagree with your politics. I think they're idiotic personally, just based on the

facts. But it's always good to see people come over to a common sense side, because as I said before, and I mean this, guys, I'll link shields with anyone on an issue if I think you and I are on the right side of it. We disagree on the Second Amendment, but you want to save babies' lives on abortion? I'll fight you on the Second Amendment, but I'll link shields on saving babies' lives. That's a fact. And we need people like this with cultural credibility with the left to talk like this. Here's Tim Robbins talking about the lockdowns and a refreshing moment of candor. I haven't heard from any Hollywood people. Check this out. It's not good. We turned into tribal, angry, vengeful people. And I don't think that's something that is sustainable for the earth,

that we start demonizing people that don't agree with our particular health policies and turn them into monsters, turn them into pariahs, say that they don't deserve a hospital bed. I think about people that have made bad mistakes in their lives where they take too many drugs and they overdose and that's totally their choice that's totally their responsibility yet we take care of them yet we bring them to the hospital yet we save their lives because we're compassionate, because we want to make sure that people live. And this turned, it turned into you should die because you have not complied. Please, please, please remember my, it's called guidance on these Hollywood people and cultural people.

They are not our friends. Period. They are not our friends. You understand? We should never glorify or put these people on a pedestal. They are human beings just like you and I. However, if they are willing to link shields with us on an issue where we can move the the freedom train back to the freedom station then we'd be idiots to not take it i always get a lot of negative feedback

on this stuff we played i remember i don't know if you guys remember it but we played this matt damon clip when he had that movie uh he was the oil field worker going to rescue his daughter i do remember that and he was and he was very going to rescue his daughter. Remember that? And he was very sympathetic to Trump supporters. He's like, listen, I was out there with these oil field workers and we shouldn't demonize these people because they support... It was basically a kind of laudatory thing about Trump. Did he mean it? I don't know. The point is people listen to Matt Damon. So my point is we have to kiss this guy's ass nor should we ever but it was a good moment for us

and we should use it be tactical be like a political SWAT team use it in an isolated tactical fashion when you can and scrap the rest seriously this kind of stuff is important you're never going to get people on our side

by using emissaries only from our side because they don't trust us. They trust this guy. Fight him on everything else, not on that. All right, let me wrap up with this. So Donald Trump was on my show yesterday, my radio show, in a wide-ranging interview. Abortion came up. A lot of stuff came up.

The midterm elections. Fox Nation has it, if you'd like to listen to it. It was his first interview he gave in a while. He obviously addressed the kangaroo court January 6 committee, but I asked him about mail-in votes as well. This is a very important exchange. Donald Trump's running again in 2024. It's obvious he's already announced. And folks, we got a problem. We can't keep telling people not to vote by mail because we're going to lose. We can't keep telling people not to vote by mail because we're going to lose. You're going to lose.

I get it. Nobody has covered. Guys, please vouch for me on this. Nobody has covered the rejection rates and fraud on mail-in voting more than us. No one. We've cited the New York Times article on it. Now, the New York Times even cited fraud so many times. It's like he doesn't even need the link anymore.

Having said that, it's the system we're stuck with and if he runs i want him to win so i asked him that question and he had actually a pretty good answer so uh listen for yourself mr president how do you respond to people who say listen we're stuck with mail-in ballots and and given that you're running for president again a lot of critics will say and i'll be honest with you, Mr. President, I think to myself sometimes, too, we're stuck with it now. If we get in office and we can do some of these changes at the state level, but we're stuck with it. So the more we talk about it, the more we kind of dissuade people from voting via that way, and we have almost no chance of winning that. Well, I think this. I think that we have to get a big, strong victory somewhere along the line.

We have to get a very powerful victory, and then we have to change it to paper ballots and same day voting and, you know, voter ID and all the things that you want. Who would not want voter ID? people watching. And I think we have that. One thing we have is we have a lot of spirit, but the Republicans don't cheat the same way. I mean, these people are cheaters. What they've done is so bad. When you look at Adam Schiff, the same stuff, Russia, Russia, Russia, today's owner with more nonsense, all nonsense. If you look at my statements, my statements were beautiful. And compare them to the statements of Maxine Waters and many other people on the other side. They were vicious statements, vicious and many other people on the other side. They were vicious statements, vicious and, you know, just horrible statements, what they said. So you have to we have to win big, Dan. Look, we're going to have to win big.

You know what goes on. You know, you're one of the people that really does get it. And you saw what happened in the election. It was a disgrace. Yes. Yes. That's the answer. Fraud fraud is real we know it's real part two mail-in ballots make the fraud worse the new york times is again already acknowledged at themselves before they try to change your mind that was when republicans primarily voted by mail in new york oh this is a big deal a A lot of fraud. And then third, that doesn't mean don't vote. There is not a preordained conclusion to mail-in balloting. If there was, Ron DeSantis wouldn't have won Florida by 20 points where almost everybody votes by mail. What do you think?

The Democrats rigged the election for a Republican and went by 20? Point is, we got to get in there and fix it. Please don't take, you heard it from the man himself. Don't take it as a reason not to vote. Sadly, we have to vote in numbers large enough to overcome fraud. It pains me to tell you that in a constitutional republic. It really does. But I'm always going to give you the real story.

No BS, we don't do that. All right, folks, thanks again for tuning in. Rand Paul, be on the radio show later. If I may ask before the holidays and before the end of the year, we have one more podcast tracking period coming up. We moved up one spot to number nine nationally on PodTrack. It's a major platform.
