get ready to hear the truth about america on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host
dan bongino i don't know where to start where do i start today what are we talking about first
there's like 20 different news stories that pop personal news stories business news stories
political stories news news all kinds of news We'll not be doing any sports today.
You want NFL stuff's on my bag of donuts. You got to go somewhere else.
I got a lot to get to, including a pretty cool weekend update. Ron DeSantis, of course,
drops out of the race, endorses President Trump. That happened. I can't stop thinking about this
January 6th bomber story. And a couple of things happened over the weekend that kind of like,
they're like little earworms, like little brain ticks. I can't get them out of my head.
I can't get them out.
That show Friday set the world on fire.
We had almost a million video views alone,
120,000 people watched that thing live.
So I got more today.
Don't go anywhere.
And I got one quick thing, by the way,
about the, something happened with me.
I posted a picture about Paul
or something happened.
I'll get to that in a minute.
So I'm going to a big show.
Hey, a lot of us are struggling
to keep up with everyday bills.
Everything's still really expensive. As you know, if you own a home, call my friends at American financing. Interest rates
have dropped into the fives, the lowest they've been in a long time. And they're saving their
customers an average of $854 a month by tapping into their home's equity and wiping out high
interest rate credit card debt. $854 a month is like a $10,000 raise. Credit card interest rates are
insane. Most of us are still carrying a balance from the holidays. Get rid of these financial
issues, right? Call American Financing and take care of that today. You call today, you may not
have to make February's mortgage payment. Call today. I've been with this company for a long

it's Monday. Big show. So let's get this party started. It's Monday, Daddy. Over time for another
well-qualified show. Joe's been working with A.I. Biden for we'll get to that in a little bit.
Joe's having way too much fun. So quick, I got a fast weekend update for you.
I want to get to the show.
Not too much.
Spent some time up in New York with some family this weekend.
It was my sister-in-law Jordana's birthday.
So happy birthday.
Also spent time with my nephews and my nieces who I love a lot.
It was over there at the weekend.
Went up there with Paula.
Big hot tip to the Garden City Hotel in Nassau County.
One, a beautiful place.
I'd never actually stayed there before,
which is crazy because I worked on Long Island.
Absolutely beautiful.
If you're going to stay in Long Island, New York,
highly recommend the Garden City Hotel.
Great bar too and restaurants.
The food was amazing.
The people were super hospitable to us.
And I went to my friend Joe's restaurant
to spend some time with my family in Syosset,
Pico La Busla, best Italian on Long Island.
So I took this picture
with the lovely Paulita and posted it on Facebook. I don't post too many pictures of me and Paula,
but she had to fix my eyes. I'll explain that in another not so family-friendly show.
So, but I took the picture with Paula, who's of course always stunning. And I put it on Facebook
and everybody was really nice. But of course,'s a couple of like liberals and bunch, you know, haters like,
oh damn, you guys should dress more modestly in your age. Listen to the haters out there. I'm not,
I'm sorry. I wasn't asking for your opinion. It's my family. It's my wife, me and her have a good
time. And you don't like it. You don't have to follow my page. So I'm just going to throw that
out because I love everybody and we love everybody, but you know, I'm not a hundred years old. I don't feel
like I'm a hundred years old. I love you. If you've lived to a hundred years old, you're fantastic.
You're amazing. My grandmother lived to 98, but you know, we'll wear what we want and I'll post
pictures when I want. And it's because I want you guys to feel like you're part of my life.
And this is the real me. If you don't like the real me, that's okay. This show is not for
everybody. I say that all the time, but I love you guys. And I feel like
you should be part of it. So enough of that, but cool weekend update that picture's like
blowing up on Facebook. So we like daddy. Oh, thank you, brother. I appreciate you. We're
good men. That's why you've been my friend for a long time. But this is the thing, Joe,
like, you know, Paul and I feel like you guys are a family too. So we like to take a picture.
We don't post a lot, but so you guys are living it with us. So that's pretty cool. And I feel like you guys are a family too. So we like to take a picture. We don't post a lot, but so you guys are living it with us.
So that's pretty cool.
And I love that.
All right,
big news.
And I've got a big idea about the DeSantis campaign,
the Trump campaign,
DeSantis and Trump relationship.
I want you guys to just hear me out and no,
it's not VP.
Let me just get that out of the way right away for a number of reasons.
Number one,
I think that ship has already sailed.
The second,
I don't even think DeSantis would want it.
I don't think Trump wants it. I just don't. I think that ship has already
sailed. That's not what I'm talking about. I posted on Twitter, I've got a big idea. And
everybody's like, Dan, what are you talking about? DeSantis for VP? I didn't even tell you what the
idea was. So first, just a quick snippet. DeSantis dropped out yesterday, endorsed President Trump.
Here's the critical part. It's about 40 seconds of what his statement was. Pretty good one. Take
a listen. Nobody worked harder and we left it all out on the field.
Now, following our second place finish in Iowa, we've prayed and deliberated on the way forward.
If there was anything I could do to produce a favorable outcome, more campaign stops, more interviews, I would do it.
But I can't ask our supporters to volunteer their time and donate their resources.
We don't have a clear path to victory.
Accordingly, I am today suspending my campaign.
I'm proud to have delivered on 100% of my promises, and I will not stop now.
It's clear to me that a majority of Republican primary voters want to give Donald Trump another chance.
They watch his presidency get stymied by relentless resistance, and they see Democrats using lawfare this day to attack him. While I've had disagreements with Donald
Trump, such as on the coronavirus pandemic and his elevation of Anthony Fauci, Trump is superior
to the current incumbent, Joe Biden. That is clear. Now, guys and ladies out there,
to the people watching the live and people watching VOD on demand later.
My opinion on Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump is the exact same as it's always been.
This is what I listen.
I don't know any other way to say this is what's called principles.
Like when you have principles, you stick to them.
Nothing's changed.
I think Donald Trump is a better candidate this cycle because of the experience with the presidency. And his first thing, his first term was just stolen to him. Nothing's changed. I think Donald Trump is a better candidate this cycle
because of the experience with the presidency and his first term was just stolen from him.
It was. And I think he did a lot of excellent stuff I pointed out. Number two, I have never,
ever, ever bashed Ron DeSantis. Chatsters, you know it. He, you know it. Tony, you know it. Joe,
you know. Why would I do that? I live in Florida. I lived in Florida before DeSantis was the governor. Long before. DeSantis is a great governor. He's done conservative
stuff. Nothing's changed ever. I challenge you to show me a single episode where I ever passed
Ron DeSantis. I didn't do it. I just picked a different guy. It's nothing personal. Having said
that, I'm still getting questions about
Donald Trump. Like, oh my gosh, how could Donald Trump then turn around and say, which he did the
other day, that Ron DeSantis is a good governor. And then he said he's retiring the sanctimonious
thing. Here, listen to this. And I'm going to explain to you for probably the hundredth time,
not, well, not you guys, you get it. But to the people out there who don't understand Donald Trump, you are missing the key word, which is, chatsters, what is it?
What is it?
Transactional.
Eventually, the Trump haters will get it.
Here, watch this.
Okay.
You just said, will I be using the name Ron DeSanctimonious?
I said, that name is officially retired.
Yeah!
Ron DeSanctimonious.
I said, that name is officially retired.
Why is it retired?
It's retired because of what I tell you all the time.
Donald Trump does not take this personal.
He doesn't. He takes things personal when they happen, but it's a political calculation subordinated to the emotions of it.
I get a lot of you will say, well, no, he said he took it personal when DeSantis said when they asked him if he was going to run and DeSantis said, I have no comment.
He said that a couple of times, Trump.
In other words, insinuating he was going to run, which he eventually did.
But you need to understand Donald Trump scraps all of that when he understands you can be an asset.
He is completely transactional.
If you want the guy who's going to read to you quotes and footnotes from a Milton Friedman book, he's not your guy.
If you want a guy who's going to do conservative stuff and who does it like a businessman, is on my spreadsheet. Is this guy now an asset or a
liability? Yesterday, DeSantis was an asset. Today, he said, Donald Trump, this is his quote.
They asked him about his fight with DeSantis. What'd he say? That's water under the bridge.
He means it. He is 100% transactional. He just wants to do stuff.
Folks, eventually the Trump haters out there will get that. Eventually. I
know you chatsters get it, but the Trump haters out there, they don't freaking get it. They're
still like, oh my God, I thought Donald Trump was an emotional madman. How can that be water
under the bridge? He told us he hates Ron DeSantis. He doesn't hate Ron DeSantis. He wants to be the
president and he wants to do conservative stuff.
DeSantis in his way.
No, he's not.
Period.
The verdict is in.
Transactional.
Transactional.
That's it.
Stop with the no more, no more, no more crying wussy time.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Okay.
My idea about Ron DeSantis, ladies and gentlemen, I know it's not
going to be popular with a lot of people, but my, my position on Ron DeSantis is the same as it's
always been. Ron DeSantis has an amazing conservative record. He just, listen, the
campaign for this time for him wasn't right. There were a lot of Trump people who aren't leaving.
And I think nationally it was a lot where he's, his missteps happen, we'll cover that another day.
It's not the time for that now. It doesn't even really matter. Okay. I don't think anybody wants
another hour show on what went wrong with it. Who cares? Ron DeSantis is the best choice for
Secretary of Defense right now. Chatsters, as always, I love your input. You guys matter.
But I'm going to tell you what I believe and I don't lick my finger and go, well, Secretary of Defense right now. Chatsters, as always, I love your input. You guys matter.
But I'm going to tell you what I believe and I don't lick my finger and go, well, what does everyone else think? It's my show. Here's what I think. You don't have to agree
with me. That's OK. Here it comes. Thank you, Joe. Assuming he would accept it and Donald
Trump would consider it, I got three reasons. Number one, most importantly, I think Ron DeSantis gets it on Ukraine. The Swamp
hated Ron DeSantis' answer on Ukraine. Ron DeSantis always wishy-washy. He hasn't really
been wishy-washy on Ukraine at all. He has said something I think makes a lot of sense,
that, hey, if it's in our strategic interests to continue to support them, we could, but there's got to be some accountability for this money. Nikki Haley's like, Ukraine, baby, straight out.
Doesn't even like barely ask a serious question about it. A lot of other people out there too,
they want to fund every other country's military but ours. I think DeSantis gave a sensible answer
about the thing. Number one.
Number two.
Listen, I'll tell you what I've always told you about DeSantis.
He understands government power can be dangerous.
I saw it during COVID.
Praised what he did in Florida during COVID.
But even through the primary, I think he understands the limits of government power.
And for me, for a secretary of defense, where you can F up some lives big time by being the head of government power. And for me, for a secretary of defense, where you can
F up some lives big time by being the head of our military. I mean, he's not the commander in chief,
obviously works in the cabinet, but the head of our military in the cabinet, you can really hurt
some people. And third, the guy has a great military record. Guy was a jag, super smart,
military record. Guy was a jag, super smart, great debater, understands it. Folks, I think Ron DeSantis is the natural pick for secretary of defense. I haven't told this to the Trump
campaign. I'm not their consultant. They don't see me that way either. We're just friends,
me and the president, and I like what he stands for. But I think Ron DeSantis should be the number
one candidate right now for secretary of defense. A lot of people say attorney general. Well,
it's fine. You guys do it. But if he would take it, I think SecDef, absolutely. By the way,
one more thing. Hold on. I got to add this. Sorry. I don't want to miss this on the radio show later.
No one gets the culture war better than him right now.
You want this culture war stopped in our military with this DEI, DIE bullshit?
He totally gets it.
Secretary of Defense.
Some of you are going to say, oh, I don't like, that's fine.
It's just my opinion.
I have a show.
I have opinions like you do.
And again, I don't lick my finger and what does everyone else think? It's what my opinion. I have a show. I have opinions like you do. And again, I don't lick my finger and, oh, what does everyone else think?
It's what I think.
Chats divided?
That's fine.
I'm glad the chat's divided.
You know why?
Because you all have opinions I respect.
You're entitled to your opinion too.
I don't disregard that.
I want to hear what you guys have to say.
But I want you to understand, like, again, I make my own, you know, I make my own choices on these things. And the guy, I live in Florida. Guy's been a great kid.
And I know a lot of things about him behind the scenes. I don't mean bad things. I mean,
like, I just know that he's not what everybody thinks he is. And I mean that in a good way.
He's going to get it with the culture wars. So something to consider. All right. Now let me move
on to what I want to talk about first before this was my show today until DeSantis dropped out yesterday and drew like a big curveball. I was going to do the curveball thing again. But last time, remember, I actually threw the curveball and knocked everything in, man. Laser focus right here. Something really
troubling is going on with this January 6th, January 5th bomber case. I say January 5th,
6th because they're saying the bombs are actually planted on January 5th, the night before.
There is something not right here. I want to just go back to this one VO from the video and a little
bit of a backstory. This is January 6th. This is right around one o'clock
when they're about to start certifying the election. You will notice that someone calls
the Secret Service or DC Metro, calls the Jock, the Secret Service Jock in some communication
center and tells them that they've located some kind of a bomb looking device in front of the
DNC headquarters,
and Kamala Harris is inside.
Now, watch this video.
I tell you, see, now they know.
So someone, that's not Guy,
someone's remotely operating that camera and is zooming in on that bench
where right to the right,
if you were sitting on the bench of that coffee cup,
is a bomb,
or what they claim is a viable bomb, the FBI.
Now, why is this important? I got a bunch of questions about this thing today that are
unanswered and I'm going to need your help and crowdsources, okay?
Why don't we have those communications? I need to know and you need to know right now,
what was told to that communication center? That zoom in is critical because they
clearly knew something was up and they wouldn't have zoomed in the cameras. Also, why is that
camera shot important? So we need those comms. We have to know what was said, but that camera
shot is important. Why? Why is this camera shot important? Because we know there were cameras there. So if the Secret Service swept that area with bomb-sniffing dogs
and EOD, Explosive Ordnance Disposal Teams,
it's got to be on tape.
I said this on Friday, but I'm sorry, I don't think I emphasized this enough.
Where's the video?
How did they miss that?
If the bomb was planted on January 5th, right there, how did
a Secret Service team with a dog trained to sniff explosives, not just under his nose, but in a
decent perimeter, how the hell did the dog miss that? Well, Dan, maybe it wasn't a bomb or it wasn't there. Okay, maybe, but I want
to see the tape. Where's the tape? Where's the comms? Two questions. Where's the tape of the
sweep and where are the communications as to what they said? We got to get those right away.
This isn't the only question I've had about this. That show I did on Friday is a must watch.
They find the RNC and the DNC bomb within 20 minutes of certification,
one o'clock on January 6th.
They're found by people and reported to people
with an association with the Capitol Hill police.
They hide Kamala Harris's location.
Tapes are disappearing.
Video appears to be edited.
Ladies and gentlemen, somebody's hiding something, and it's not small.
They are hiding something freaking huge.
I want to go back to this Darren Beatty, who will be on my radio show later, so don't miss it.
He's the one who wrote this piece at Revolver.
They talk about the video of the night before, where if somebody put that bomb there, they were on video. We've seen
the video. Why is the video manipulated? Beattie says they were able to show definitively that the
surveillance footage had been tampered with given the frame rate of 1.6 frames per second is below
the industry minimum. They were able to show definitively that the FBI has the January 5th,
has the January 5th video, but for whatever reason,
they didn't make public the surveillance footage that would make it clear
whether the bomb suspect planted the bomb when they said he or she did.
Folks, listen, here's an open question for you right now.
If that bomb I just showed you in that video on January 6th was next to that bench and the FBI is in possession of the video on January 5th, when the suspect planted it, why don't we see him actually planting it?
And why does the video appear manipulated?
He's got a picture of the bomb on the scene.
Now, how do you miss that?
Folks, why don't they show us on the chatsters, chatsters
question? Why aren't they showing us the video of the guy or the woman that they have video of
placing the bomb there? Maybe because they didn't. None of this makes any sense, folks.
didn't. None of this makes any sense, folks. I'm telling you, man, I know I mentioned a lot.
It's my background. It's what I do. I'm really sorry. I don't try to bring stuff up to jam it down your throat. I did this for 12 years of my life. Protection, federal investigations. I was
an agent. That is exactly what I did. Not kind of what I did. That is exactly what I did.
None of this is normal. Look at me. You know I don't get out ahead of stuff and get crazy with
conspiracy shit if I can't back it up. I'm telling you as your friend, and I bet my life on it,
this is not normal. Something is going on here.
Where is the video of him dropping the bomb?
Why don't we have it?
Why does it appear manipulated?
Where's the video of the sweep?
Where's the communications on the sweep?
Where is all this stuff?
I've got more questions coming up because I'm backing this up with receipts and data,
and I'm telling you none of this is normal. Let me take a quick break, and I'll get back to this because this receipts and data. And I'm telling you, none of this is normal.
Let me take a quick break and I'll get back to this because this stuff is super important. I just,
I don't even want to, let me just get right to it. Hey, traditional media is crumbling. Why?
Because they're lying to us about everything, like all the time. It's just happening. Something's up,
you know it. You know the truth all along. The time to prepare is now. It's not like tomorrow.

If they have it, why haven't we seen it?
Why is it manipulated according to Revolver?
Did they delete something?
Also, the video from January 5th of the subject supposedly leaving this bomb there
that's discovered the next day.
Supposedly the video shows him on the phone texting.
So folks, if the FBI was using geofence warrants,
where are you getting that, Dan, from?
From reporting, epic.org, report.
FBI relied heavily on Google geofence warrants in January 6th investigations.
You know what a geofence is?
Here, from this clip.
Geofence search warrants are meant to locate devices within a given area
based on digital services like GPS, Bluetooth, or Wi-Fi.
Oh, okay.
So now, folks, compounding the,
holy shit, I've got questions about this,
because I only did this for a freaking living.
You got a guy on a bench on January 5th in front of DNC headquarters where Kamala Harris was going to be the next day who supposedly dropped the bomb there.
Yet the video appears to have been messed with.
We have no video mysteriously of him dropping the bomb.
We also know he was texting.
no video mysteriously of him dropping the bomb. We also know he was texting. We know the FBI was using geofence warrants and you can't figure out a way to get a geofence hit on who was texting
from that bench when no one else was around the night before. Folks, I'm calling bullshit and you
should be too. Something is not right, ladies and gentlemen. And let me give a shout out again,
Something is not right, ladies and gentlemen.
And let me give a shout out again. Steve Baker at The Blaze, Darren Beattie, Julie Kelly, Michael Schellenberger is another one.
They've all been doing great work.
They deserve mega shout outs.
You should be following all of these people.
Schellenberger had a Substack post up.
Michael Schellenberger's Substack, he starts asking other questions like this one.
Berger's sub stack, he starts asking other questions like this one. Why was the video metadata? I mean, the phone metadata manipulated. Folks, this is insane. You got to read this.
Michael Schill, is this in my newsletter? Bongino.com slash newsletter. You got to read this
piece. FBI and Secret Service are covering up their role in the alleged
January 6th pipe bomb plot, new evidence suggests. So now we know, according to Darren Beattie,
that the video appears to be manipulated, but here's the kick in the balls. Apparently the
metadata from the subject texting, where we would know at least who it was and what phone it came
from, that appears to have been corrupted too. Read this shit.
The FBI released CCTV videos and photos of the suspect
holding a cell phone and possibly texting.
Oh, really?
The phone would allow the FBI to find the user
based on the time and location.
However, oh, look, folks, how convenient.
The data from the phone company
that could have identified the suspected bomber was mysteriously corrupted.
Well, golly, Arbicost, isn't that crazy?
The video's corrupted.
The metadata's, oh, yeah.
Yeah, Pee Wee, we heard a lot of it.
Freaking weird, bro.
The video's messed.
Wait, keep that up a second.
The metadata's all messed up.
Here's the FBI guy who, by the way,
was conveniently also involved in the Fed napping thing as well up in Michigan.
Steven D.
Antwano.
Joe, I'd say, folks, I don't have a bullshit flag.
I like the red flag.
The bullshit flag is getting thrown.
He notes DeAntuano, hey, there's some data that was corrupted by one of the providers,
DeAntuano said, but not purposely by them, right? Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, sure, bro. It's just,
he notes, an unusual circumstance that we have corrupt data from one of the providers.
It wasn't purposefully corrupted. I don't want any conspiracy theories.
Oh, thanks, guy.
Thanks a lot.
Joe, totally trust him.
Totally.
I feel better.
He just brought up a great point.
He has been doing this show
for three freaking years.
We do about 200 shows a year.
We have had one file corrupted.
One.
What are the chances that the only guy's metadata
who's near the DNC late at night on January 5th, there's no one around that you get that metadata
and oh shit, look, it's corrupted. What are the chances chatsters? Yep. We got red flags
everywhere in the chat. The chances are zero. They're waiting for, again, maybe Fagazi.
This shit is freaking bananas.
I'm sorry.
This is crazy.
And in case you think the craziest stop, it hasn't.
So the video of the event appears to have been manipulated.
No one will show you the video of the subject dropping the actual bomb there. The metadata of the event is corrupted, according
to the FBI. Oh, and look at this. Apparently, even CNN's reporting that there is actual video
of a bomb sweep the night before. So weird from Michael Schellenberger's sub stack,
which you got to read. On January 31st, 2022,
which is years after the January 6th thing happened,
by the way,
CNN, I'll add, finally reported,
a law enforcement source familiar with the event,
told CNN that the Secret Service,
which was responsible for Kamala Harris's protection,
who was inside the freaking building,
that's my addition,
swept the interior, the driveway,
the parking deck, and the
entrances and exits prior to her arrival.
Folks, I'm sorry.
This is double bullshit flag.
I'm telling
you, listen to me, please.
I did this for a
long time.
This show is not about me.
Listen to me, brothers and sisters.
This is not normal.
You're telling me there was a bomb plot that could have killed the vice president-elect of the United States.
The vice president elect of the United States.
And nobody has any video record of what went wrong.
This is just total bullshit.
Somebody has to clean this shit up right away.
Oh, and look, Fox News breaks this morning.
A fascinating story by Brooke Singman, who, by the way, has been cracking stories left and right now.
You should follow her.
House January 6th committee deleted more than 100 encrypted files the day before the GOP took the majority.
OK, Joe, we're up to the triple bullshit flag.
Couldn't keep up.
So now we know the video is manipulated according to Revolver. The metadata
is corrupted, but
DeAntuano says, don't sweat it.
Now we know encrypted
files have been deleted.
We know now there's a mysterious
video of the sweep. No one
will show us. How'd you miss the
bomb? Because maybe it wasn't there.

Folks, back to the story here. Why was this January 6th bomber incident covered up in the
January 6th report where Brooke Singman is now reporting hundreds of encrypted files were
deleted? There was an appendix. Did you know about this? The January 6th report, which wanted us to believe that it was an insurrection. We were all going to die. The government was at risk of being taken over by these bandits in the Capitol same time as the election certification, which would only correct Joe solidify the insurrection narrative.
There were bombs everywhere.
And yet the weirdest thing, the January 6th report, which now has missing encrypted files, only mentions the incident casually in an actual appendix.
It doesn't even mention it anywhere else.
Why is that?
Why did the FBI, by the way, refer to the bomb as viable
when friends of mine and internal sources I have
are telling me that the bomb was not in fact viable
and had no way to explode?
Why are some people reporting out there with experience in the space
that the explosive devices at the RNC and the DNC,
the one you saw in that picture Guy put up,
why are people out there reporting that this looks like a training device,
the same training device used by Homeland Security and elsewhere.
You can see it yourself.
And most importantly here, why did we only find out that Kamala Harris, the vice president
elect, a Secret Service protectee, was inside the DNC with the viable, quote, bomb outside in November of 2021.
Which is a long time after Biden's inauguration in 2021 in January.
And how did we find out?
A DOJ report where it was, again, just casually mentioned.
Folks, I want answers on this. a DOJ report where it was again, just casually mentioned.
Folks, I want answers on this. And the next president of the United States,
if it is a Republican now appears that, you know, we got Nikki Haley in there,
but if she loses New Hampshire, it's this primary is done. Stick a fork in it.
If the next president is Donald Trump, mission number one is going to have to be to get to the bottom of this. I suspect something huge is going on here.
I said to you on Friday, I only see a few possibilities. This was a red cell op gone
wrong. This was an absolute attempt. If this scenario is right, an attempt to frame January
six people for an insurrection by dropping training
bombs to make it look like this was going to be some big plot and they got caught. Or third,
this is negligence and incompetence on a scale we've never seen in the federal government.
Any three of those is a massive scandal. So just to recap, open questions.
Where's the video of the sweep the night before?
Why is there no video of the suspect?
The FBI has on tape January 5th dropping the actual bomb,
putting it down.
Why is the video,
according to Revolver at least,
corrupted of the night before?
Why is the metadata with the suspect texting corrupted?
What happened with that?
Why did we only find out Kamala Harris was in the building
almost a year later?
Why did the January 6th committee make no reference
in the body of their report to the bomb plot?
And why did the January 6th committee delete,
which we just found out this weekend,
hundreds of encrypted files?
Folks, I want freaking answers and you should too.
This is serious
shit going on here. I have never
ever seen anything
like this.
This reminds me of that movie
Seven. Have you ever seen anything
like this? And the answer is
no. What?
Was it fluid? Is Watergate
dying down a little bit? Huge improvement, Geese?
You're hilarious. Oh, dude, I missed the Rumble thing. I missed the Rumble announcement.
Hey, man. Huge news today. Did you hear? Disclosure, I am an equity holder in Rumble.
I was on Rumble. I got on early. I was an early adopter. I love Rumble. Why? Because it's a free
expression platform and that's it. It's not a political platform, folks. It's a free expression
platform. We want sports. We want music. We want politics. We want news. We want entertainment.
Anybody who wants to freely express themselves on Rumble is welcome. Liberals, conservatives,
anyway, as long as you're not breaking the law
and the times of service,
we'd love to have you.
There was a huge announcement this morning,
dropped it around nine o'clock or so.
We combined with bars,
well, combined,
I mean, that's not the same company,
but Barstool Sports joined Rumble.
I think their content's going to be exclusive over there.
So Dave Portnoy and Barton,
he's a big believer,
obviously in free expression as well.
This just goes to show you, Rumble, ladies and gentlemen, is a bigger company than the media caricature does.
Oh, look at it, right wing news.
Folks, we've got a ton more than that, a ton.
It is a huge company.
It is a great company.
I'm honored to work here.
This partnership with Barstool is going to be huge for us.
They're the biggest sports brand in the world right now.
So this is going to be really big for us.
Yeah.
So congratulations to Chris Pavlovsky, who was a visionary guy, CEO of Rumble, who made
that happen and understands that the world is a bit, folks, the world's a big place.
There's politics, there's news, there's sports, there's entertainment, there's music.
It's bigger than that.
And if you're about free expression, this is the place and this is your only home. Listen to me one more time. This is your only
home. There's a lot of people buying into hype about other platforms, if you know what I mean.
I want you to look at the record of who stands for free speech and who doesn't. When foreign
governments come after companies and go, ban this guy, we're banning you from the country,
I want you to see who stands up and who doesn't.
And you'll see why Rumble is your only future here.
Congrats to them.
All right.
Speaking of government incompetence, folks, after this January 6th thing, did you see
this stunning report that came out about one of the most horrific incidents in modern American
history?
The Uvalde Massacre, which it's Monday,
this is a lot for me to take because I was in law enforcement and this is so hard for me to watch.
A 600 page report came out on Uvalde and what happened with the massacre of those kids.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's hard for me to talk about.
77 minutes went by, and they did not stop this carnage.
I'm not going to play for you the 9-11 tapes.
It's too much.
It's too much.
But this report came out.
This video I saw on social media about it.
It's short.
It's a little cut.
Let's just watch it.
And I'll tell you my,
just some quick thoughts on the other side of this.
Cause this ladies and gentlemen,
this can never, ever,
ever happen again.
I forget the politics for a minute.
Forget them totally.
I don't care where you are.
This can absolutely never happen again.
Take a look.
As the gunman fires off dozens of rounds and more than an hour
since the massacre started, more desperate calls are made from inside the school, including one
from 10-year-old Chloe Torres, begging for help from officers standing on the other side of the wall.
She survived the attack. I've already told them to go to the room. We're trying to get someone to
you. Even with hundreds of officers from nearly two dozen agencies on scene, the lack of coordinated
communication is clear. At one point, a dispatcher incorrectly states that the school's
police chief, Pete Arradondo,
call sign 401, is in the room
with the shooter.
401 is in the room with the shooter.
401 is in the room with the shooter.
Folks, you know,
again, the 9-11 videos from that,
the 9-11 video, the audio, it's just, sorry, man, this is hard.
You know, I work with so many, you know, brave law enforcement folks, and you can tell I'm struggling with this story.
It's certainly not for a lack of being able to articulate it in my head.
It's just the emotions around it are so thick.
Let me just say about this, that to all
the police departments out there, I know this was not your specific incident that happened in
Uvalde, but there were a number of different entities involved. Folks, we can never, ever let
this happen again. And to police chiefs out there everywhere, you have to reprioritize training.
You have to remind people again that post Columbine, the training changed completely.
When you have a situation like this, you have to stop the problem immediately. You've got to
potentially even walk back, walk over the dead and the injured to stop that problem immediately
because the carnage won't stop. So I beg of you in the name of all that's holy, and I'm not using
the Lord's name in vain. I don't do that.
Please watch that, read the report, and make sure all your officers know
that if they're there on the scene,
they are brave.
Most of these guys, those guys in Uvalde
really, really, really screwed up bad.
I don't even know how to describe what happened.
I'm at a loss for words.
But most, we've seen these incidents over and over.
You got to stop that problem.
All right, let me move on. So folks, you know, again, this, the theme of today's show,
you know, I like themes. It's been just the absolute incompetence of government,
whether it's this January 6th case, what happened in the post-op with the Uvalde thing. It's just
been a total train wreck, but they are always lying to us. And what really bothers me is I
focus a lot on the globalists and the World Economic Forum and all these people who have these grand plans for
organizing society as collectivists. They are coming for you, okay? They're coming for your
money. They're coming for your freedoms. They talk about it all the time. So Kevin Roberts
from the Heritage Foundation, this is a fan. If you've seen this clip, it went nuclear.
Kevin Roberts from the Heritage Foundation, the conservative think tank was over at the WD of WEF and just to their face,
absolutely eviscerated this world economic forum crowd about all the lies that globalists keep
telling us. This is one of the most glorious things you'll ever see. But it got me thinking
about other lies too, that he mentions and some he doesn't. Check this out.
It's laughable that you would, or anyone would describe davos as protecting liberal democracy it's equally up for it it's it's
it's equally laughable to use the word dictatorship at davos and and aim that at president trump in
fact i think that's absurd but i'm a step aside from that constructive criticism and instead
answer your question.
And I'm going to be substantive here.
President Trump, if he's the next president, for that matter, I think whoever the next conservative president is going to take on the power of the elites, which I mentioned earlier.
But the thing that I want to drive home here, the very reason that I'm here at Davos is to explain to many people in this room and who are watching with all due respect,
nothing personal, but that's your part of the problem. Political elites tell the average people on three or four or five issues that the reality is X when in fact reality is Y. Take immigration.
Elites tell us that open borders and even illegal immigration are okay. The average person tells us in the United States
that both robbed them of the American way of life.
They're right.
President Trump will take that on
on behalf of the average American.
Elites also tell us that public safety
isn't a problem in big American cities.
Just travel to New York or Washington or Dallas, Texas.
The average person will tell you
that the lack of public safety
damages not just the American way of life, but their life. person will tell you that the lack of public safety damages not
just the American way of life, but their life. President Trump will take that on. Thirdly,
I guess the favorite at the World Economic Forum is climate change. Elites tell us that we have
this existential crisis with so-called climate change, so much so that climate alarmism is
probably the greatest cause for mental health
crisis in the world. The solutions the average person know based on climate change are far worse
and more harmful and cost more human lives, especially in Europe during the time that you
need heating than do the problem and the problems themselves.
Dude, right to their face.
You guys are lying.
Saxon.
Saxon.
Right to their face.
You're lying about immigration, climate change, public safety.
You guys are all full of shit.
I saw some people like, hey, why is that guy over there talking to the World Economic Forum?
For the same reason Javier Millay was, to go lay into them to show them what kind of tools they are.
Folks, these people think and group think.
This is how a contagious liberal idea spreads.
Folks, I've seen it.
Please, beam in.
Super important right here.
You got it?
Beam in, lock in, get ready.
Horse blinkers on, okay?
I have seen it. I have sat there
as an agent up there with the
squiggly earpiece in, listening
to hundreds of presidential
speeches. The Democrats
in the audience do this
every time. They have groupthink.
That's not on the Republican side. You just saw it with the
primary. The Sanchez people go at it with the
Trump people, go at it with the Haley people.
They've all got a different idea about Ukraine and whatever, and COVID management. Everybody's
got a different idea. You understand that's not Democrats. Democrats are freaking NPCs.
I haven't whipped this out in a while, Guy. They support the current thing. That is it.
They are NPCs. Whatever you tell them to do, they will do. So when the World Economic Forum happens and a
bunch of globalists who go, we need higher taxes, government control, healthcare, wear your masks,
take your vaccine, immigration, illegal immigration is wonderful. Government spending's a net positive.
Police are the enemy. School choice sucks. Deficits are great. When they say this eight hours a day for the entire world economic forum,
you need to see what I saw standing there like an agent like this.
You see the same thing.
They're all like, like bobbleheads.
That's what they do.
Freaking dopey bobbleheads.
Thank God this guy went over there and lit into them.
I want you to ponder for a moment all the lies they tell us. Illegal immigration is nothing more
than a conservative replacement theory, conspiracy theory. Really? All you guys talk about is
demographic destiny. I played the supercut a thousand times. What's another fairy tale they
tell us? Oh, tax cuts cost the government money. Show me any evidence of that at all. The JFK tax cuts, the Reagan tax cuts, the Clinton capital gains tax cut, the George W. Bush tax cuts, the Trump tax cuts. They didn't cost the government money. The government's raising record amounts of revenue under the lower tax rates.
That's a freaking fact, dude.
Look it up yourself.
But liberal dumbasses believe that.
Government spending's a net positive.
How?
How do a bunch of dumbass people in the government,
who can't even get their heads out of their asses and operate an Obamacare website,
they're going to take your money and create prosperity. That's the reason they work in governments because they can't create prosperity in a private sector. Why would you believe such
stupid shit? Police are hunting black people in the street. They are. You have no evidence of that
at all. That this is some mass systemic problem.
Is police use of force an issue?
Have there been racial episodes?
Yes.
Is this a massive systemic hunting of people in the street?
That is totally fake.
COVID, all lockdowns.
We got to lock everybody down.
Put your mask on.
Take the vaccine.
All bullshit.
School choice doesn't work.
Total bullshit. Government's going to manage your healthcare. Absolute bullshit. Government couldn't even manage
the Obamacare website. You want them to crack your chest open? Good luck. These people lie to you
about everything all the time. Thank God he went over there. Kevin Robertson laced into these
people. I don't know. I never met the guy.
But good for him.
Because this is how you get groupthink bullshit like this.
I want you to watch this montage.
This is Mays Moore.
We'll put this on Mays Twitter.
This is a great montage.
This is the scion of the liberal left in the media.
Mays Moore.
My hat tipped him.
Moscow Maddow, Russia Rachel, who has lied to you about every
major scandal in the last few years, yet people still tune in for her election analysis like
she's going to mysteriously start telling you the truth soon. I want you to watch this and
then hilariously the end point where she's like, hey, man, listen, we don't air untrue stuff on
MSNBC. The only thing you want here is untrue stuff. Cut the bullshit. Check this out.
The bottom line of this dossier, the bottom line allegation, the point of it
is that the Trump campaign didn't just benefit from Russia interfering in our presidential
campaign. The point of this is they colluded. They helped. They were in on it. This is kind
of a real story. The connections between the Trump servers and the
Alpha Bank servers were real. They were covert communications that someone was trying to hide,
that the Trump organization and Alpha Bank appear to have been trying to hide.
Now we know that the vaccines work well enough that the virus stops with every vaccinated person.
A vaccinated person gets exposed to the virus.
The virus does not infect them.
The virus cannot then use that person to go anywhere else.
It cannot use a vaccinated person as a host to go get more people.
cannot use a vaccinated person as a host to go get more people.
We and other news organizations have generally stopped giving an unfiltered live platform to remarks by former President Trump.
It is not out of spite.
It is not a decision that we relish.
It is a decision that we regularly revisit.
And honestly, earnestly, it is not an easy decision.
But there is a cost to us as a news organization of knowingly
broadcasting untrue things. That is a fundamental truth of our business and who we are.
Erroneous. Thank you, Vince. This is what I don't understand. Tony,
Guy, Joe, maybe you guys can help me do a crowdsourcing here. This is what I really
don't get in the chatsters. Let me check you guys out crowdsourcing here. This is what I really don't get in the chatsters.
Let me check you guys out in the chat.
This is what I don't understand.
These people have lied to you.
I just showed you that video montage from Maze Moore of Rachel Maddow telling you things that were not true.
They're just not true.
As in the facts are not what she said the facts were.
That is not real.
What she said was real, but it's not real.
She's been wrong about everything.
Why would you start believing her now?
Listen, folks, no host gets everything right all the time we are in a business where we discuss
events in the past present and future obviously when you discuss future events like i mentioned
you know i think the santas would be a good pick for secretary of defense at the beginning of the
show it's just an opinion not telling you it's gonna have no one on the trump team told me that
but it's probably not gonna happen he's probably's probably going to pick someone up. It doesn't mean I was wrong.
It just means I had an opinion on the matter.
They took a different one.
But if I tell you I heard from a source
and I did not, I want to be clear.
I heard from a source,
DeSantis is definitely Secretary of Defense
and it doesn't happen.
Don't I look like a douchebag?
Like I just lied to your face.
Yeah.
Or I made it up or I have shit sources. Either
way. Why would you, why would you still listen? Yet? Everything I told you was right. Russia was
a hoax. The PP thing was a hoax. The Prague meeting was a hoax. Spygate was real. We had the name
masks don't work. I kicked off YouTube for telling you masks don't work. They don't.
to but telling you masks don't work. They don't. Everything I've told you has come true. If I didn't, you wouldn't 121,000 people would not be watching the freaking show today.
Why do you waste your time with these idiots? I don't understand. Is anyone in the chat of
an explanation? You're sitting there listening to stuff that is not real i mean i saw this story this weekend
it made me think of like how liberals will fall for anything watch the framing of this story
by the new york times there is a major scandal brewing in georgia with fannie willis this
prosecutor going out of her way to politically prosecute Donald Trump.
We now have very serious allegations of her paying state money to her alleged leather
to go and prosecute Donald Trump while they went out on little romantic soirees.
This is a huge scandal. Here's the New York Times. How allegations of an office romance
came to complicate the case against Trump. What the, an office romance? You're talking about
the leading candidate for president of the United States, Donald Trump, who by the way,
was the president of the United States, who's being maliciously prosecuted by a Democrat prosecutor who had meetings at the White
House, who's alleged to be playing her little lover boy to go prosecute Donald Trump while
meeting with Donald Trump's political opponent, Joe Biden. And the New York Times calls it a freaking office romance.
Merely an innocent rendezvous, Dan.
Right, Joe?
They locked the door in the office and shared a dangerous liaison.
Dude, this is a major scandal.
Why do you believe these people?
An office romance.
All right, listen, big day today.
Everybody get out and vote tomorrow up in New Hampshire.
The New Hampshire primary's tomorrow.
Listen, I don't vote for Democrats ever.
I've said that.
Nothing's changed.
However, the New Hampshire primary,
you basically got one choice tomorrow.
It's Donald Trump.
You got to show up and vote. I'm a little afraid of apathy here.
Now that Ron DeSantis has dropped out and endorsed Donald Trump.
Honestly, I'm a little afraid some people might not show up thinking Trump's got this
in the bag.
Folks, please don't do that.
Please get out and vote.
It's important to make a statement.
This primary, we got to end this thing.
Nikki Haley is not the answer.
I'm really sorry.
I know and vote for Joe Biden.
She was the nominee.
I support Republicans over even when they suck because Democrats will destroy the country tomorrow.
Republicans buy at least buy me a little bit of time.
They destroy it slower because they suck too.
However, you please get out, vote New Hampshire.
It is super important that not only Trump wins, but that he wins by a landslide because we got to end this.
This primary has been, I love primaries. I think they sharpen up candidates, but this thing has been kind of a
debacle. Okay. So it's time to move on and start consolidating support against Joe Biden. Please
do the 10, 10 and 10 rule. You know, the 10, 10 and 10 rule, email 10 friends, call 10 friends,
send 10 social media posts before tomorrow. If you're in New Hampshire, get everybody out there and vote in South Carolina.
You're up next.
Super important.
Get out and vote.
