The Dan Bongino Show - Is This An Enormous Coverup? (Ep 1419)

Episode Date: December 21, 2020

Summary: In this episode, I discuss the deeply troubling statements by Attorney General Barr about the plot to take down President Trump.

get ready to hear the truth about america on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host dan bongino folks i'm not buying it uh i'm not buying it not buying what you're probably asking attorney general barr gave an interview to the wall street journal kim strassel and he said something in the interview that just doesn't make any sense. He was talking about the whole Spygate scandal, the spying operation on Donald Trump's campaign and presidency afterwards. And he implied that the CIA, he detected no improper activity with this Durham investigation. That is not, listen to me, listen, listen clearly, horse blinders on here. That is not possible. to me. Listen, listen clearly. Horse blinders on here. That is not possible. I'm going to walk you through today during the show, step by step, how it's absolutely impossible that John Brennan

A bunch of Dan Bogino show listeners there. They all wanted to see the Kenny Bell. I should have brought the Kenny Bell with me. Thank you for the incredible reception we got. I was truly humbled. You know, I have a really thin skin. I was about to break out in John Boehner tears there because I love you all. Thanks for watching my show. I really appreciate it. It means the world to us. All right, let's get right to it. First, let's get to what I was talking about with Bill Barr. Bill Barr is our attorney general. I've always liked Bill Barr.

I've defended Bill Barr. I think he's done some really great things. But I think there's a misstep here. And maybe he knows something I don't. And if he does, we'll find out later. And I'm always willing, of course, to give you both sides to any story. But in an interview with the Wall Street Journal he gave with Kim Strassel, he said some things in the interview which don't seem to comport with reality. Ladies and gentlemen, I've written three books on this. I've had some great sourcing on the whole Spygate affair.

And Bill Barr's statements that he could not detect or Durham hasn't yet detected any improper activity with the CIA don't seem to make any sense. Here's some coverage in the Washington Examiner by two guys who've been all over this Spygate case, Dan Shateland and Jerry Dunleavy. Story will be in our show notes bungino.com newsletter if you want to read the show notes there bill barr quote washington examiner no sign of improper cia activity surrounding trump russia investigation launch folks i'm not buying this at all i'll get to bar's potential motives for saying this later uh it's just all, so we all understand where we're going. Bill Barr, no CIA improper

activity during the spying operation on Donald Trump. Folks, that doesn't make any sense. Let's walk through this now, step by step. And keep in mind, as I walk through this, I'm going to make the point to you, number one, why I'm not buying the story that I do believe John Brennan and the CIA weren't only involved in the spying operation on Trump, but heavily involved. That'll be point one. Point number two, what I think is really going on, why Barr is saying this. And point number three, the London connection and how that may be one of the reasons RUG, they're sweeping everything under the rug right now, to avoid international embarrassment for certain foreign actors, if you get what I mean. So stick with point number one here.

There's no improper activity with the CIA and the spying operation on Trump. All the media reports I'm about to give you, by the way, none have been retracted yet. None. Let's go to media report number one from The Guardian. It's right here the story's still out there for anyone to see if you'd like to see this story at the guardian please just put it in the search engine and you can read it right there today there's no editor's note that says this story's been retracted and is false the guardian it's by luke harding back in 2017 british spies

were first to spot trump teams links with Russia. Exclusive GCHQ, which is the British NSA, is said to have alerted U.S. agencies after becoming aware of contacts in 2015. Alerting agencies? Who? Keep in mind, Barr's telling us, oh, we haven't detected any improper activity with the CIA. We know the Russian collusion story that Trump colluded with the Russians is a total hoax, okay? And Joe, point stipulated.

Paula, point stipulated. Everybody gets it. We know it's a total hoax. There was never a there there. There's no there there now. All of it was made up. It was all in a fake dossier called the Steele dossier.

It's all fake. None of it was ever real. So if there was never any real Trump colluded with Russia information, then what the hell were the British giving to our intelligence agencies? The answer is fake stuff, fake stuff. It wasn't real. It was never real.

The Mueller report was conclusive. Mueller hated Trump, but at the end concluded not only was there no evidence of Trump collusion, there was no evidence of any U.S. actor colluding with Russia. None. It's all fake from the Guardian piece. evidence of trump collusion there was no evidence of any u.s actor colluding with russia none it's all fake from the guardian peace again showing you how bar bars conclusions can't possibly be real about the cia it says quote the gchq first became aware in late 2015 of suspicious interactions between figures connected to trump and suspected r agents, a source close to UK Intel said. This is all fake, folks. None of this was real.

The intelligence was passed to the US as part of a routine exchange of information they added. Over the next six months until summer of 2016, a number of Western agencies shared further information on contacts between the Trump Center Circle and Russian sources said. The European countries that passed on electronic intelligence, known as SIGINT or signal intelligence, included Germany, Estonia, Poland, Australia, and members of the Five Eyes

spying alliance that include the U.S., U.K., Canada, and New Zealand. They also relayed material, one source said. So what do we know? We know now, according to this Guardian piece that was pretty well sourced at the time, and I'm telling you is accurate, that these friends of ours, the Five Eyes intelligence sources, the US, the UK, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and others, Estonia and Poland, along with the UK, as I said before, Five Eyes, are all passing information about Trump's contacts with Russians. These are all fake. None of these are illegal contacts. There's nothing elicited here at all. Are passing it on to our people. You get it? Not complicated. Very simple. Overseas foreign intelligence entities are giving information

to who? Our intelligence people. Who's our head intelligence agency? The CIA, led by John Brennan. The piece goes on, and it makes even more specific that the British GCHQ, their NSA, actually, the head of it, had some meetings with John Brennan. Their piece, not mine. Quote, the Guardian, Luke Harding, according to one account, GCHQ's head, Robert Hannigan, passed material in the summer of 2016 to CIA chief John Brennan. Not my words, folks, not Dan Bongino's words. This is the Guardian. They've yet to retract this. The matter was deemed so sensitive it was handled

at the director level. After an initially slow start, Brennan used GCHQ information and intelligence from other partners to launch a major interagency investigation. What?

I don't get it. So why is, I don't understand. So Bill Barr saying, no improper activity by the CIA. So if that's true. Then the information passed from the Five Eyes channels, the UK and others to our CIA and John Brennan, as stated right there, John Brennan's name. GCHQ gave information to John Brennan who headed the CIA, then clearly this Five Eyes information,

this is an official intelligence channel we have with friendlies overseas called the Five Eyes Intelligence Channel. Clearly there's a record of this, Joe, the information exchange, and there's nothing improper about it. That's what Bill Barr said, right? Right. There was nothing improper about the CIA. They did everything by the book.

And by the book means that we have records, which we would if information was passed, like this UK, this Guardian report says, information was passed from overseas here about Trump to our CIA. Clearly there's a record of it through the formal Five Eyes intelligence channel. But is there a record of that?

Because it was all done properly, right, Joe? Well, let's listen to the great Devin Nunes. He gave this interview a while ago on Maria Bartiromo's show on Fox. And Devin Nunes has been very suspicious about this from the start because if Barr's right and the CIA did nothing wrong, then clearly there's documentation of these foreign governments who are friends of ours do this documented Five Eyes channel

where there's paper and electronic records. Clearly there's a record of them passing this information. So where is it? So this is a little long. It's about a minute and 50 seconds. But listen to Devin Nunes hone right in on this and be like, where's the beef, folks? Where's the Five Eyes records? Where is it? What happened? Check this out.

So it took us a long time to actually get this, what's called the electronic communication. As we know now for your viewers, what that is, is it's the original intelligence, the original reasons that the counterintelligence investigation was started. Now, this is really important to us that the counterintelligence investigation was started. Now, this is really important to us because a counterintelligence investigation uses the tools of our intelligence services that are not supposed to be used on American citizens. So we've long wanted to know, well, what intelligence did you have that actually led to this investigation? So what we found now after the investigators had reviewed it is that, in fact, there was no intelligence. So we have a traditional we have a traditional

partnership with what's called the Five Eyes Agreement. Five Eyes Agreement involves our friends in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Canada, and of course, us. So long time process and procedures in place where we move intelligence across. We are not supposed to spy on each other's citizens. And it's worked well and it continues to work well. And we know it's working well because there was no intelligence that passed from Five Eyes through the Five Eyes channels to our government. And that's why we had to see that original communication. So now we're trying to figure out, as you know, we are investigating the State Department. We think there's some major irregularities at the State Department,

and we're trying to figure out how it is that this information about Mr. Papadopoulos, of all people, who was supposedly meeting with some folks in London, how that made it over across into the FBI's hands. We know a little bit about that because of what some of the State Department officials themselves have said about that. So we were glad to get this behind us. But now, of course, as we peel another piece back, it leaves more unanswered questions, which we're trying to get to the bottom of.

Joe, you have the Devin Nunes translator for us. Can you please initiate that? Here we go. Initiating Nunes translator, Dan. We haven't used that in a while. You have to learn because Devin Nunes is a good and decent man, unlike Eric Swalwell and others who've been compromised, he's not going to give up classified information on television. So you have to translate

what he's really telling you. Let me translate this down to a one-sentence bullet point. There was probably a black op going on here. It's always a dramatic term, right? Black ops. It's like the thing you see on TV.

Black CIA operation. What he's getting at there is there was obviously foreign governments passing fake information about this trump russia collusion hoax to john brennan at the cia it's been reported on i'll produce more evidence later. We know it happened. It's not a secret. But Nunes is saying it didn't happen. Nunes is saying there's no record of that through formal, formal channels. by himself to make sure this information made it to the FBI and elsewhere without having it vetted through normal CIA channels? That kind of sounds like what Nunes is saying there. That kind of sounds like it. That we know this happened, but Nunes can't find it. Meaning, did it happen mouth to mouth?

And I'm not talking about CPR. I'm talking about, was Brennan the one marshalling this entire operation to an informal kind of black ops channel he had set up with his overseas foreign friendly counterparts to taint Trump and frame him for a fake Russian collusion scandal?

Was Brennan doing this, exchanging all this information and not doing it through formal channels. We know it happened. We know there's a formal channel and we know there's no record of it. Really weird, isn't it? So maybe what Barr is suggesting there is the CIA's formal information channels, they didn't detect any improper activity. Maybe that improper activity was isolated to one person at the top, John Brennan, because we know it happened.

And what better way to launder information, fake information about Trump colluding with the Russians, than to isolate it to one person at the top so no one else sees it and detects that it's all BS, the PP tape and other stuff, right? If you know it's ridiculous, you want to keep it isolated to your major players, right? Because you don't want other people reading it going, this is stupid. So what better way to do it than to keep it isolated to Brennan and then to launder it through the State Department who gives it to the FBI too.

So then Brennan passes it to the FBI. Hey, guys, look what I got through Harry Reid. How did he do that? Brennan briefed the old Democrat Harry Reid in August of 2016 about information in the dossier. And then Harry Reid wrote a letter to the FBI. Pretty simple. Brennan to read. I'm going to tell you this information in the dossier. Wink and a nod. You really should write a letter to the FBI and start investigating Trump. Another great way to do it would be to launder the same information through the State Department,

which has almost no investigative capabilities at all. They're mostly bureaucrats loyal to Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Hillary Clinton, who was the Secretary of State, right? And then to get the State Department to give it to the FBI too. Oh, wait, wait, wait. That sounds like something nunes said in the

same interview here's part two a shorter clip of the same interview where nunes says kind of the same thing check that out we do know that longtime associates of hillary clinton uh including sydney blumenthal and another person named i think cory sheer uh were actively giving information to the state department that was somehow making its way to the FBI. This is from two people within the State Department who have now publicly come out and said this in, I think, in major news publications. So we know this.

We know this was at least from at least two witnesses who have publicly said this. And so what we're trying to do is we're trying to piece all that together. We now know that there was no official intelligence that was used to start this investigation. We know that Sidney Blumenthal and others were pushing information into the State Department. So we're trying to piece all of that together. And that's why we continue to look at the State Department. So we know Christopher Steele, creator of the PP tape dossier, right? The fake information indicating Trump was colluding with the Russians.

We know he was meeting with the State Department. I'll get to that later. We know he was meeting with the FBI. I'll get to that later, too. And we also know the information he produced made it to John Brennan of the CIA because John Brennan told Harry Reid about it, who was then dumb enough to put it in a letter, the dossier information, and send it to the FBI.

But Bill Barr's found no improper activity on behalf of Brennan? How is that? Or the CIA, I should say. He didn't say Brennan. One more point about this. If the CIA was acting properly, there would be a record of the information they traded with overseas partners who gave us, there would be a record of the information they traded with overseas

partners who gave us, we would see it. Why don't we see it when we know it happened? Why hasn't CNN retracted this article yet? If there's some formal information channel nobody can find, why did CNN report this? British intelligence passed Trump associates communications with Russians on to US counterparts. April of 2017, an article we've only used 50, 60 times on the show, yet to be retracted. Someone's passing information about Trump team contact with Russians made up nonsense to our intelligence officials. How come there are no records of it anywhere? How come Nunes can't find it?

Was Brennan running a black op by himself? Why hasn't Brennan refuted a lot of this reporting? All right, I got to get to my second sponsor, but we're going to exit part one of this. Remember, there's three parts to this. Number one, there was clearly a CIA led by Brennan operation information exchanging with overseas partners. I'm not buying Barr's story at all. There was no improper activity to see it. None. Now we're going to get to what's really going on and the London connection and what I think

they're really covering up. Let's get to our sponsor though. First, today's show also brought to you by our good friends at Omaha Steaks.

So I'm obviously not buying Bill Barr's story at all, that there was no improper activity in the CIA. So what's really going on here? Folks, it's clear as day for those of you who have read my books and watched my show forever, that this is the most important story of our time. That our government, our CIA, our intel infrastructure, and our law enforcement operation through the FBI

and our State Department was corrupted to spy on a presidential candidate and then president Donald J. Trump. This is a huge story. And why are we bringing this up again now? Because if we don't get to the truth, we will never have any accountability. And I'm not optimistic we're going to get any through the legal system as evidenced by these statements by Barr, which seem entirely ridiculous and implausible. I'm really sorry.

What's going on here? Number one, two points. This was clearly an information laundering. You don't like money laundering? You sell drugs? You can't go to the bank and say, hey, here's my money for my crack cocaine deal. You can't.

You have to launder, clean the money. You set up that whole show Ozark on Netflix. It's all about that. How people set up legitimate have to launder, clean the money. You set up that whole show Ozark on Netflix is all about that. How people set up legitimate businesses to launder dirty money through to make it look like it's real. Ladies and gentlemen, information looks like that too. This was an information laundering operation. Joe, we've only been saying this now for four years. That's right, Dan. What's information laundering? It's when you take fake information, like Trump colluded with the Russians to win the election. Fake.

It's made up. It's totally discredited. And you give it the patina of truth by laundering it and pushing it through multiple legitimate businesses like you would be money laundering. What were those legitimate businesses? The FBI, the State Department, and the CIA. When you push the same information from Steele and Halper and Hillary Clinton's campaign who was paying for this fake information,

when you push it through all these entities and they get back to the FBI, the FBI said to itself, my gosh, we're hearing these entities and they get back to the FBI, the FBI said to itself, my gosh, we're hearing this from the State Department, from the CIA, from Harry Reid, from Steele, from Halper, from our agents in New York. Gosh, it must be true. We're getting it from all these different people. It was never true. It was an information laundering operation from the start where they took fake information, pushed it through, flooded, you know, flooding the zone. You know, flooding the zone is in football. You throw a bunch of receivers downfield. You just throw the ball up.

That's what they did. They threw a Hail Mary, a bunch of fake pee pee tape stuff. They flooded the zone and they sent it to every channel possible, figuring by the time it got to the FBI from 20 different people that the FBI would be dumb enough to believe it. And they did. Or they pretended to. Hopefully that's the focus of Barr. Number two, what's really going on here?

And when I say what's really going on, I mean, why is Barr, why is Barr saying this? CIA, no improper activity. So number one, I think the information laundering operation is his first target. But number two, I think he's trying to avoid some significant international embarrassment. I am not justifying this. I'm not

suggesting this is the right thing to do. I'm simply giving you what I believe to be the truth. You've heard it from Nunes and you've heard it from others. There was exchange of information. We just don't have the record trail of it because clearly somebody was hiding the record trail by covering it up.

Ladies and gentlemen, if this information was coming from the United Kingdom and the United Kingdom and others, I will never be allowed in the UK again after this show or other shows. If the United Kingdom and others were the kingpins behind a scandal to frame Donald Trump for a Trump-Russia collusion hoax that never happened and the UK and other foreign partners were behind it because they thought

Hillary would win and they could cover their tracks, do you understand how dramatic of an impact that would be on international relationships if all of this became public? What's really going on? I think Barr and certain players in the Justice Department understand the nuclear bombshell this would be, that a foreign government framed the President of the United States in conjunction with our CIA, this would be that a foreign government framed the president of the United States in conjunction with our CIA and that they're focusing on the information laundering part and they're going to hang up the FBI folks first with these law enforcement consequences, potential prosecutions. We'll see. I'm not sure. I'm not confident about that. But I believe that the international black

eye and the global intergalactic embarrassment it would be and the complete utter failure of our intelligence agencies to do anything other than spy on innocent American citizens in conjunction with supposed friendly governments of ours

would be the biggest black eye in U.S. foreign policy in modern human history. I think Barr's team sadly understands that. And I think they're trying to sweep that under the rug. What does that have to do with the London connection? Well, ladies and gentlemen, London is obviously in the United Kingdom. I'm sorry, but there are some liberals listening. You got to get that out of the way. You know what's really weird about this case? We've already established the United Kingdom had a role in passing intelligence to Brennan's CIA.

I just showed you the articles, multiple sources, CNN, The Guardian, not right-wing sources, folks. I just showed it to you. Well, what if I told you the nexus of this whole case was the UK and London? case was the UK and London. Who was in charge of our London operation for the CIA when all of this stuff was going down? Gina Haspel. Who's Gina Haspel? She was the station chief over there. She's the director of the CIA right now.

Someone's got something to hide. You think she didn't know? So again, multiple media reports about the United Kingdom passing intel about Trump and Russians, fake intel to frame Donald Trump. She's the station chief in London and she doesn't know nothing about nothing about nothing. Well, let's walk through the London connection one by one because there's some eye openers in here too. London, UK connection to keep it simple for the liberals watching who are having trouble following this. Let's go to this Real Clear Investigations article by Eric Felton from a while ago.

How this all seemingly went down in London right under the nose of Gina Haspel when she was in charge of it. And she's our current CIA director? Weird. Real Clear Investigations, quote, headline, FBI's man in Europe undercuts Orr's claim of limited Russiagate role.

Forget the title for a second. Let's get right, give it to you in case you want to look it up yourself. Put it in the show notes today as well. Here's a screenshot from that piece. This is an interesting piece, folks. So this agent Gaeta, G-A-E-T-A, he was in the London office of the FBI.

Gaeta's known Steele, quote, since 2010. Christopher Steele produced all the fake Russia information that made its way from the UK to the United States. So Gaeta's known Steele since 2010 when they were introduced to one another by Bruce Orr at the DOJ. Bruce Orr, whose wife was working for the company hired by Hillary to create this stuff. Weird folks, crazy. It was not a random encounter.

Orr appears to have been drumming up business for Christopher Steele, having traveled to London to host a meeting between Gaeta and Steele in London, at which Steele pitched having his private intelligence firm do work for the FBI. It goes on. Over several years, Steele provided Gaeta with reports and leads. And so when Steele called at the beginning of July of 2016 to say he had important information, Gaeta flew to London. During a meeting at Steele's office on July 5th. That can't be. The case didn't open until July 31st. How is this happening on July 5th? During a meeting in London on July 5th, Steele gave Gaeta pieces of what would ultimately become known as the dossier,

including the report claiming there was a video recording of Russian prostitutes urinating for Donald Trump's entertainment, otherwise known as the PPT. So the FBI's official story the whole time is that this case against donald trump didn't open until july 31st of 2016 but joe i just read in that piece that there was a meeting in london on july 5th joe just checking audience ombudsman time i know this is tough think this through

july 5th is before or after july 31st take a moment. This is very important. It's before. Way before. The verdict is in. Joe's a genius. It happens to be before and Joe is correct. Thank God for the audience on BuzzFeed. I couldn't figure that out.

Really weird how Gaeta, this FBI agent, flies to London where Gina Haspel is the CIA station chief in London. We know the UK

is passing us information that's fake about Trump called the dossier, that information, because that's the only information about Trump and Russia anybody had. It was all fake. And we know the meeting happens three weeks before the FBI told us they started the case against Trump, which is weird because that doesn't seem to be right, that story. Now, Gaeta's an interesting guy. FBI agent, long-term relationship with Steele. Cover, by the way, I'm not, listen, I'm not into this shameless pluggery.

You know, I don't talk about my book much. Folks, there's a chapter. It starts on page 79 in my book, Followed Money. And I'm going to show a screenshot from where I go over this whole Gata, Stephen Soma, Halpert relationship with Steele. Please, please read that chapter. You don't even have to read the whole book. Just read that chapter.

Page 79 on. Gata's an interesting guy. He knows Steele. They go way back. Steele's the source of all this nonsense about Trump and Russia. They meet in London, right under the nose of Gina Haspel, the CIA. You think she didn't know?

She's the station chief in London where the FBI's meeting about the pee-pee hoax. So Gaeta flies over there, weirdly three weeks before they said they started the case. That's just really crazy. But the real clear piece goes on. They bring up another interesting little tidbit here about how this information starts laundering its way through various entities. Quote, after the meeting, Gaeta wasn't sure what to do with the documents, the PP documents,

you know, folks. He wanted to get the Steele reports to the right people at the fbi but didn't know who the right people would be he was reluctant to ask around for fear of spreading word of the explosive information finally in the middle of july middle i thought this didn't start i thought this started the end of july finally in the middle of july gator reached out to a trusted colleague who was in the new york field office oh isn't that strange a trusted colleague who was in the New York field office. Oh, isn't that strange? A trusted colleague in the New York field office. Weird how that worked out.

I thought the FBI said they didn't get the dossier until September 19th. You understand how none of this, what you've been told, none of this is true? So the CIA, Gina Haspel, who's in charge of the London office, has no idea there's a meeting in London happening about the biggest scandal in human history, that Trump is supposedly working with Vladimir Putin to win an election. Biggest scandal in human history. It's happening in London. And our CIA station chief, current director of the CIA, has no idea. Sure.

The FBI gets this dossier about Christopher Steele's dossier laying out this scandal. Trump is working with Putin to influence the election. They get this dossier then, but they've insisted on the record they didn't get it until September. But this is July 5th. July's, Joe, again, one more time, July's before September, correct? Think it through,

buddy. Okay, thank you. Round two. Joe, he's never wrong. The guy's a genius. He's the Einstein of ombudsman. July's before September. The FBI's told us over and over, the pee-pee hoax dossier had nothing to do with a start in the case. It had everything to do with Papadopoulos.

Really weird, because your guy in London meeting right under the CIA's nose there is meeting with the guy who wrote the PP dossier in July and says, I wanted to get it to this colleague in New York. Who was that colleague? Well, that's going to be important. I'm going to get to that in a second. And my suspicions there. Let me get to my third sponsor. But don't go anywhere.

The FBI was meeting in London before they said they opened the case. July 5th, they said they opened it July 31st. They know they had the dossier before that,

even though they told us they got it in September because it's July. So then we know that Gaeta passes this dossier to a colleague in new york who is that colleague from new york well in my book in the what's the chapter number hold on oh it's called the strange tale of case agent one chapter six who's case agent one case agent one in the inspector general's report that looked into all this. Was the one, quote, responsible for most of the errors in the FISA report. In other words, case agent one is the one who went in and swore that this whole PP dossier in front of a judge to get a FISA warrant to spy on Trump. Swore that those facts had been verified when, in fact, they were a hoax.

All of it. Who do some people believe case agent one is? From my book, they believe it was this guy, Stephen Soma, who incredibly folks had a connection to what? The New York field office. Wait, wait. Gaeta said he passed the dossier to a colleague in the New York field office of the FBI. But weird, the FBI, this is in July, said they didn't get it till September.

This is from my book, and I have to throw this in there. The lovely Paula strongly objected. This is an actual screenshot, if you're watching on Rumble, from my phone of my book. Paula strongly objects. She wanted me to use a digital copy because this is an actual screenshot. She was nice enough to add the cover though. So I have to give credit. Here, from my book.

Again, who's case agent one? A lot of people believe it was Soma. Anyone who scrutinizes, this is from my book, the timing of Soma's conclusions. In other words, his swearing to the FISA warrant is likely to smell a rat. Let me back up again. Soma was a Russian ops expert when he worked in the New York FBI office. The Federalist reports that before Soma came to DC to join the Crossfire

team in August, he worked as a special agent in counterintelligence in New York, where he zeroed in on Russian operations. That suggests he was operational in the New York office around the time Steele's Rome-based handler, Gaeta, sent a copy of Steele's first two memos to an FBI supervisor in the New York office on July 28th. July 28th. This is not possible, folks. The FBI continues to insist they didn't get the dossier until September 19th. But you know what's even weirder? That when Lisa Page was asked by Trey Gowdy, Lisa Page, FBI lawyer, who was one of the leaders of the team in

spying on Donald Trump through the FBI. Remember her having the affair with Peter Stroke? When Lisa Page was asked by Trey Gowdy when they first got some of the reports and Trey Gowdy said, so you got them on July 28th? She said, quote, right. Thank you. I thought they got them on September, the dossier report. I put September. Sounds like somebody's lying here. You know what's even weirder too? That the FBI continues to insist they opened up this case right under the CIA's nose and

Gina Haspel's nose in early July of 2016. Yet they continue to insist that that didn't happen. They opened up the case in late July, despite meeting in early July, right under the CIA's nose in London. Sounds like they're hiding something now. Sounds like what they're hiding is the fact that their whole case was based on the PP dossier. You know, what's weird too, that a source they were using with connections to the intelligence community, a guy by the name of Stefan Halper, an FBI source who they were using for this report, had met with Carter Page, who was one of the subjects of the dossier, Trump team member Carter Page, had met with him before July 31st and early July as well. That's really crazy, isn't it?

The FBI has this source. They say they didn't open up the case till July 31st, yet their source is meeting with a Trump team member before July 31st. Sounds like somebody's lying. So now I think you get my London connection and what they may be hiding, some international embarrassment. So I said I'd had some good news, bad news. I do parlor teases on parlor of the show exclusively every morning before the show. And I said to you that there's some good news, bad news. I just gave you the bad news. The bad news is I am convinced. I'm sorry that Barr is

not telling you the whole story. His insistence that there was no improper activity on behalf of the CIA is obviously erroneous based on left wing reporting the Guardian and CNN. Somebody passed the fake pee-pee stuff about Trump to our CIA.

We know it. Why is Barr hiding it? Because I think they're trying to avoid the biggest scandal in human history, that our friendly governments were spying on a presidential campaign for us. Period. Full stop. That's the bad news. news okay please give us some good

news this is not meant to take the edge off the bad news it's just meant to give you the truth bar has repeatedly stated this is the segment to get this epic times piece in a second but has repeatedly stated on the record including in an interview with interview with Martha McCallum about a year ago on Fox News, that he is zeroing in this investigation into the whole Spygate scandal, spying operation, that he's zeroing in on, quote, private actors. He's used that term twice now. He used it in an interview about a year ago

with Martha McCallum. I'm going to play, he said it. We played it on the show before. But in the very same interview with Kim Strassel, he said that term private actors again, that we're looking into the FBI, not so much the CIA, and also the activities of private actors.

Here's Peace in the Epic Times. Be up in the show notes. Again, bongino.com slash newsletter. The newsletter is the show notes. Just subscribe. You can read it there. Ivan Penchikoff, Epic Times. Durham's broad Spygate inquiry looking at private actors, Barr says. That was from December of 2019. He said it again in the weekend interview. So he said this multiple times. That was in 2019. And he said it again in the interview with Kim Strassel in the journal. The same term, private actors. What is he talking about?

And why is this good news? Let's tie it together. We know foreign governments were spying on Donald Trump for our government here. Biggest scandal of our time. We know there were no records of it. Nunes has repeatedly stated there is no official intelligence product from these foreign governments.

So, Joe, if the biggest scandal of our time, foreign governments were spying on a presidential candidate for the United States government, Barack Obama and others. If we know they were doing it and there were no formal channels, then how would they hide that? Maybe use private actors? Let's walk through how they did that. So we know Christopher Steele used to work for the British intelligence agencies and is now retired freelancing,

working for Hillary Clinton, writing fake reports about Donald Trump and pee-pee tapes and trying to collude with Putin to win an election, all fake. So we know Steele's trying to launder that information through the Justice Department, the State Department, the FBI and the CIA by flooding the zone and give it to anyone who will listen. And one recipient of that information was Bruce Ohr.

Bruce Ohr was the fourth highest ranking official of the Department of Justice under Barack Obama's administration at the end when they were spying on Donald Trump. And Bruce Ohr's wife conveniently was working for the company Fusion GPS that was paying Christopher Steele to produce the fake peepee stuff. So what did Bruce Ohr say under oath about Christopher Steele who wrote these dossiers, these fake things, these private actors, what did Bruce Ohr say on the road where he believed Christopher Steele got all this information that was fake about Trump and Russia? Well, let's just go to the transcript. Bruce Ohr, quote, in the July 30th conversation, it's a July 30th, 2016 conversation that Bruce Ohr had with Steele.

That's what he's referring to. This is Bruce Ohr's words. In that July 30th conversation, one of the items of information that Christopher Steele gave to me was that he had information that a former head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, the SVR, had stated to someone, I didn't know who, that they had Donald Trump, quote, over a barrel. that they had Donald Trump quote over a barrel. So we know Steele's meeting with the DOJ, Bruce Ohr, while Ohr's wife is working for the company that hired Steele. And that Steele tells Ohr, I got this information from the Russian SVR.

That's Ohr's words right there under oath. He swore to it. Really weird, huh? Now, we know Christopher Steele's meeting with the State Department too. So not only is Steele meeting with the Justice Department, telling Bruce Orr, or implying he got this information from big time Russian intelligence people. Private actor Steele. We know Steele also met with Kathleen Kavalec at the State Department too.

She was a hire up there. And Kavalec actually wrote down in her own handwriting some very specific notes about what Christopher Steele told her where he was the fake pp information stuff from too and the russian collusion ho the private actor steel look at kavalec's notes these are her actual notes rumble.com slash bonjita if you want to see them this is a screenshot of her actual note steel told her in july quote that one of his sources was trebnikov trebnikov was a higher up in the russian intelligence outfit so christopher steel is telling both or from the justice department flooding the zone and telling kavalec from the state department that his source is this guy Trebnikov who was a higher up in the Russian intelligence service. You know what would be really crazy?

If Trebnikov had a relationship with Halper, a spy working for the FBI. Halper who had a job in Cambridge in London, and Halper was working with Trebnickoff too. Two private actors, both claiming they're getting information from the same Russian and probably making the whole thing up. Wouldn't that be nuts? I'll get to that in a second. Let me get to my final sponsor. I'm going to tie this thing up for you. You hear them at the beginning of every show. Ladies and gentlemen, surf the internet in peace.

Get a VPN. Go to expressvpn.com slash Bongino. You hear it every day. Well, how did I choose which internet service provider to use? The sad thing is most of us have very little choice because ISPs operate like monopolies

in the regions they serve. Then they use this monopoly power to take advantage of customers. Data caps, streaming throttles, the list goes on and on. But worst of all, many ISPs log your internet activities. You know that? And then they sell the data to big tech companies or advertisers. To prevent ISPs from seeing my internet activity, I protect my devices. All of them would express VPN.

What is it? It's a simple app for your computer or smartphone, encrypts all your data, your network data, and tunnels it through a secure VPN server so your ISP cannot be seen or any of your activity. Don't have people spying on you. Just think about how much of your life is on the internet. Sadly, every site you visit, video you watch, message you send gets tracked by ISPs or other tech giants who then sell it for profit. That's the reason I recommend ExpressVPN as the best way to hide your online activity from your ISP. Don't wait. Just download the app, tap one button. It's that simple and you are protected.

ExpressVPN does all this without slowing your connection. That's why it's rated number one, not number two, not number 10, number one, the number one VPN service by CNET and Wired. Stop handing over your data to ISPs. You know how I feel about this and other tech giants who mine your activity and sell off your information.

Okay. Thanks, ExpressVPN. So we know Barr's looking into the activity of some private actors who seem to be running this black op outside of formal channels, sending all this fake information into the United States about Trump colluding with the Russians.

Steele's a private actor, right? He's not working for the government. Is that what he's talking about? I don't know. I can't get in Bill Barr's head, but Keylock. It seems to be really odd. Barr has said twice they're really looking into these private actors. Interesting.

So we know Steele has claimed he's getting this information, this Russia hoax stuff from this guy Trebnikov. We know Steele's working with the FBI. We also know a noted intelligence contact, Stefan Halper, is also working with the FBI. It would be so crazy if Halper had a relationship to this Russian Trubnikov too, wouldn't it? Let's go to this Daily Caller piece. This is just fascinating. It's an oldie but goodie, but oh, worth your time by Chuck Ross. FBI informant, they're talking about Halper, bragged about links to Russian spies in secret recording of Trump aid. Trump aid. This is too much. From the peace. These are Halper's own words in a recording they have. I have a lot of friends in Russia, Halper told George Papadopoulos during recorded conversations which occurred over drinks and which the FBI recorded. My point is that, Halper said,

the Russians can be very helpful to us at this time. And we've got some great information coming out. Yeah, it was all fake. Peace goes on. Halper, a former Cambridge professor. Joe, Cambridge is in the UK, right? Just checking. Just checking. There you go. Joe's three for three. This London, UK, this is really weird. Halper, a former Cambridge professor, rattled off the names of Russians. Vyacheslav Trubnikov, Leonid Shedbarshin, and Yuri Trotov, according to a transcript of the secretly recorded conversation released on Thursday. Wow. Were these private actors working together? Because they're both citing the same guy for the fake pee-pee stuff and Russia stuff.

And no, I won't stop calling it the pee-pee stuff because that's how stupid it really was. And it deserves to be mocked and laughed at. So the bad news, Barr's statements about the CIA and improper activity don't seem to comport with reality. The good news, he has said multiple times he's looking into private actors. Steele, private actor, right?

Halper, private actor. And they're both claiming they have the same Russian source. Trebnikov, this Russian higher up in the Russian intelligence services. Crazy how Christopher Steele is from the UK and Halper, who's from the United States, works there. While Gina Haspel, our current CIA director, was the station chief. All under her nose.

She doesn't smell anything. She would be the worstia station chief in human history do you concur amikas yeah not uh not too good i just want to let that settle i was that was actually a radio i had to say that because i want to let that settle a bit before I get into the explanation here. What is Barr hiding? Barr is obviously hiding that Brennan knew about these private actors, likely knew about them, what they were doing, because we have Brennan passing the information in Steele's dossier to Harry Reid. And he's probably trying to give the CIA and Gina Haspel a pass by pushing this all off on Steele and Halper, the quote, private actors. But I'm going to get to a Washington Post piece

here in a second. This means either one of two things. If Barr's right that the CIA did nothing wrong and Gina Haspel, who was in charge of her, was the London station chief at the time. It means Joe's right that she may be one of the worst CIA station chiefs we've had in human history. Because a U.S. intelligence asset working in Cambridge, Stefan Halper, is claiming to be working with the Russian head of the SVR, Trebnikov, in Cambridge in London. And she doesn't know anything about it. So she really stinks, number one. Or number two, she knew about it the whole time. Halper and Steele were making it up.

They used the United Kingdom and their intelligence service to embarrass Trump and set him up. And they lied about it the whole time and Haspel knew. Either one of those options ain't good. It's not good. It's not good. Either she was really stupid or she was in on the whole thing. Eh. Let's go to the Washington Post. I always love

bringing out these left-leaning sources because they try. None of this has been retracted. And by the conspiracy theory by CNN, The Guardian, and The Washington Post. Here's The Washington Post back in 2018. Cambridge University, in the United Kingdom for the liberals watching, Cambridge University perched, gave FBI source, that was Halper, access to top intelligence figures and cover as he reached out to Trump associates. This is crazy. The Washington Post knows about this and the CIA station chief in London doesn't? Let's go to the Washington Post piece.

For 15 years, Halper convened seminars, informal dinners, and apartment gatherings in Cambridge, again in the UK for liberals, with leading academics and one-time leaders of the British spy services. His perch as a Cambridge professor gave Halper, a veteran of three Republican administrations, the chance to mingle with figures such as then-DIA chief Mike Flynn, wow, that's weird, and Vyacheslav Trebnikov, there's that Trebnikov again, former director of the russian

foreign intelligence service this is all happening in london under our current cia director's nose and she doesn't know anything about it a veteran intelligence operative according to the washington post not me halper who's worked in Republican administrations too, who is being reported on by the Washington Post to have in context with some of the most important intelligence figures in Russia. By the way, the same intelligence figure cited as a source by the guy who made up the dossier.

And the London station chief of the CIA knows nothing about it. You know what's really crazy about this too? You may be like, at this point. Hey, Dan. How come Trump okayed Gina Haspel as director of the CIA? I don't know. I don't have a good reason. Was there some horse trade that went on somewhere?

I don't know. If this happened under Gina Haspel's nose, again, she's either the worst station chief in the history of London, or more likely, number two, she knew about this entire operation to spy on Trump using London, UK intelligence assets and private actors who were working right under her nose. I don't know why she was selected as the CIA director. I have no good reason to tell you that.

But I do find it awfully suspicious that Fusion Kandalanian, remember Fusion Kandalanian at NBC News? Yes, sir. Kandalanian is an alleged reporter, I know Joe knows him, who has been implicated in this Spygate media scandal because he's got a connection to Fusion GPS and getting tips from them. They jokingly call him Fusion Kandalanian. Whenever they want to leak something about spy game to make it look good for the scandal players, they give it to Candelanian at NBC. So it's awfully weird that Candelanian wrote this story at NBC about Gina Haspel. Check this out. Why do so many spies

support Gina Haspel to head the CIA? That's classified by Fusion Candelania. Let's go to a screenshot from the piece. Who else okayed Gina Haspel, thought this was a great idea to put Gina Haspel in charge of our CIA now? Maybe to, oh, John Brennan. Quote, Fusion Candelania, NBC. Former CIA case officer John McGuire, who backs President Trump, has almost nothing in common politically with John Brennan, the former CIA director under Obama. But they both agree that Gina Haspel should

be the next CIA director. A flop isn't real. It's a conspiracy theory. What better person to have in charge of the CIA to make this all go away? And then Barr's like, no, we didn't see anything improper at the CIA. Gina Haspel's like, I didn't see anything improper

either. Nothing. Really, it all happened in London while you were there. You know what the worst part about the whole story is? And we'll wrap this show up. The worst part about the whole story is? And we'll wrap this show up. The worst part about this whole story is as private actors were using foreign intelligence services to spy on Donald Trump with John Brennan being

knee deep in the whole thing. And our London station chief, either being too stupid to figure it out or being part of it, they were using private actors and those private actors, one of them was on the U.S. government payroll and you paid for it. No way. Let's go to this article by Glenn Greenwald, one of the few honest reporters left. Not a conservative, by the way.

In the Intercept. Now he's got his own sub stack. He got away from these loons at the intercept, but quote Glenn Greenwald headline, the FBI informant who monitored the Trump campaign, Stefan Halper, oversaw a CIA spying operation in the 1980 presidential election, Glenn Greenwald back in 2018. But at the bottom of this piece is a really interesting little tidbit to tie this whole little gift package together, gift package, Christmas week, whatever. Here you go. Check

this out. This little bad boy right here. Quote Greenwald. Then there were questions about what appears to be some fairly substantial government, by the way, that's US government payments, payments to Halpern throughout 2016. Gee, when the whole spying thing was going on on Trump, to Halper throughout 2016. Gee, when the whole spying thing was going on on Trump? Halper continues to be listed as a, quote, vendor by websites that track payments by the federal government to private contractors. Crazy.

There's the screenshot right there. Stephen Halper, Great Falls, Virginia. So let's just sum this whole thing up for you. There was improper activity with John brennan at the cia for some reason bar wants that to go away is it because gina haspel's telling him it to go away because she was in london when the whole thing was going on and we were using the united kingdom to spy on donald trump and it all happened under her nose and we want to spare the united kingdom the embarrassment gina haspel the c and everyone else. So we're going to focus on the FBI who did equally wrong in this as well. But that's no excuse to let everybody else off the hook.

What did Haspel know? When did she know it? It's only fair, right? This all went down in London with a spy on the government payroll who worked in Cambridge and claimed in his own words, his source was a Russian guy who appears in State Department notes as the same source, the Steele dossier author said was his source, this guy Trebnickov. What's the connection between the two? One last point. Halper, the private actor being paid by the government, working in London while Haspel's the station chief there,

and Steele, former UK spy working for Mrs. Clinton. What's the connection? They're both saying they got the information from Trubnikov. Both of them. All the stuff. The pee-pee stuff and elsewhere. They got Trump over a barrel, to quote Orr. That was attributed to Trbnickoff. That's

who they're talking about. What's the catch? Why do Halper and Steele both say that? I think they're not telling the truth. They made the whole story up. They attributed it to Trebnickoff to give it the imprimatur, the patina, the code of seriousness. We got this from Trebnikov. I think they made the whole thing up. I don't think Trebnikov ever told them that. You think Trebnikov, the head of the foreign Russian intelligence, has this information and nobody knows about it but these two private actors? I think they made the whole thing up.

I don't think they heard that from Shubnikov at all. I think they made it up. And what's the connection between the two of them? Chapter six. I'll tell you, buy it or not, I'll tell you right here. I'm not like, oh, T's only in my book. But if you want it in detail, the details and references chapter six of my book what's the connection between steel and halper who both have the same source

wouldn't it be really bizarre if christopher steel's handler was gata the london fbi agent working in london you know where Haspel was a station chief. And Halper's handler was Stephen Soma, case agent one. The one responsible for most of the untruths in the FISA document. And wouldn't it be even weirder if those two both had a connection and both worked in the New York field office. I know there's a lot going on with the election and other things. I've got that. President Trump just brought a case to the, hopefully they're petitioning for a,

for rent at the Supreme court for the Pennsylvania case. I'll give you some updates and all that stuff. I know there's a lot going on folks, but this is only the biggest scandal of our time. And I'm sorry, but what Bill Barr said can't possibly be true.
