Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with
your host, Dan Bongino.
Okay, you just witnessed last night the single most destructive act of political suicide
in modern political history.
The hapless, cowardly, fraudulent, lying, sleazy democrats last night in the first bipartisan vote against
impeachment in american history not one republican and three democrats on one article of impeachment
voted against it voted to impeach a president for the high crime of humiliating embarrassing them
in an election they thought they were going to win.
Folks, you are not going to want to miss the open to the show today.
Let's get right to it.
Welcome to the Dan Bongino Show.
Producer Joe, how are you today on what is unquestionably, at least for serious Americans,
one of the saddest days in our history?
Well, I'm sad and disappointed as well.
I mean, there's nothing else to say about that. You saw this debacle
unfold. We gotta move on. Yeah.
Folks, no more excuses.
I'm gonna get to that in a
minute. It's time to gloves
off.
Glove on,
gloves off.
Man, too much laughing
going on, man. Don't go anywhere. Too much of that stuff.
I don't appreciate that no i
know you don't today's show is brought to you by buddies at bravo company manufacturing when our
founding fathers crafted the constitution the first thing they did was ensure the rights of
individuals to share ideas without limitations by government you know how strongly i feel about
our freedoms in the bill of rights you also know how strongly i feel about liberty and personal
responsibility our founders knew these were the cornerstones of a great civilization and the second amendment
guaranteed the individual's right to protect themselves and their families. Ladies and
gentlemen, when it comes to the protection of myself and my family, the company I trust is
Bravo Company Manufacturing. They make hands down the finest rifles in the market i have two of them now to be clear
bravo company doesn't make sporting equipment okay if you're looking for hunting rifles that's great
there's a lot of great companies out there that do that that's not what bravo does they manufacture
i want to be clear on this life-saving equipment with their rifles they assume that when a rifle
leaves their shop it'll be used god forbid in a life or death situation by a responsible citizen, law enforcement officer, or a soldier
overseas. All they care about is quality, precision, that this equipment works when it
matters every time. Their rifles are hand-assembled and tested by Americans in Heartland, Wisconsin,
to a life-saving standard. BCM puts people before their products.
They know it's their responsibility
to provide life-saving tools that will not fail.
God forbid it's not a paper target.

All right, Joe.
Let's go with another sad bell.
And they're off!
Oh, we are.
Yeah.
So I was on the air last night filling in for Mark Levin when this historic debacle went down.
I mean, I was at a loss for words at times, and I'm at a loss a bit for words now because i you know i love this
country ladies and gentlemen i do it's not some kind of like dopey talking point i throw out there
like trying to be captain america for you you know i love it because it matters i mean it's set a
standard for freedom and liberty and prosperity i mean we do things and have accomplished things
here that haven't been happened that haven't happened any time in human history thanks to
our unique combination of a supposedly limited government
and robust individual human freedom.
Last night, a lot of that was thrown away.
So the first president in US history
impeached essentially for the crime-dreaded air quotes
of winning an election.
Now, as you can see,
I'll obviously put an article up
at the Washington Examiner.
It'll be up in the show notes about the impeachment last night that went down.
It is the first bipartisan against impeachment vote in U.S. history.
Not one Republican, with the exception, obviously, of fake libertarian Justin Amash, who at one time was a Republican, who's now disgraced himself and humiliated himself on the floor last night. I'm embarrassed they even knew this guy.
Three Democrats voted against one of these articles of impeachment and no Republicans voted for.
Folks, what do we do now going forward? Because we can whine all day about this. You're going to
hear this coverage on cable news. He was impeached. He was impeached. Okay, fine, enough. What do we do?
day about this. You're going to hear this coverage on cable news. He was impeached. He was impeached.
Okay, fine. Enough. What do we do? Now the gloves come off. There's no more excuses.
I want every one of you to make sure you tattoo on your brain what happened last night. Because as I said on Mark's show last night when I was filling in, election day's around the corner,
folks. It might be snowing. It it might be raining i don't give a
damn if there's a category 5 220 mile an hour wind hurricane bearing down on your house is ground
zero if you're not voting you're the problem too call your mama call your baby mama call your dad
call your stepbrother call aunt betty call uncle tony call fat tommy down the
street i don't give a who you have to call you grab every single person out there you can get
your mitts on and you get them to the polls in november everyone you grab your neighbors you
grab your dog if they're eligible you grab everybody and you show up in numbers we have never seen
show up before for a Republican candidate for president. Grab your mamas, grab your daddies,
grab everybody, grab your boyfriend, your girlfriend, your space alien neighbor,
grab Alf if he's living in your house. Everybody shows up to vote. Not only do you show up to vote, if you're showing up to
vote alone, you screwed up too. Take your car, grab Fat Tony down the block, grab Tommy two times,
grab Mickey Two-Face, grab all of the buddies down the block too, throw them in the car,
rent a van. Rent an Escalade if you want to show up in style. I don't care. Put the 22s on them, Shaq feet rims.
I don't care what you do.
Grab Tommy two times and every one of your neighbors,
get him in the van, get him in the car, and get to the polls.
There are no excuses.
I've talked about the 10-10-10 rule.
Now make it the 30-30-30 rule.
Every day, you should send a social media post,
call one of your friends or email one of your friends every day,
30 days, roughly in a month.
Some have 31.
Every day you should be contacting a potential voter.
I don't want to do that.
What does it take you two minutes to contact someone?
You voting? Ask your friends, are you voting? Why aren't you voting? What do I have to want to do that. What does it take you? Two minutes to contact someone?
You voting?
Ask your friends.
Are you voting?
Why aren't you voting?
What do I have to do to get you to vote?
Can we help you register?
Do you need a ride to the polls?
What do you need?
Grab everyone.
Grab your kids.
Grab your kids' friends.
Grab your kids' friends' friends.
Show up at the school if they're eligible. Rent a van. Everybody goes. They ignored the Constitution, ladies and gentlemen. This is not what impeachment was for. This is going to be a historic stain on our country, the likes of which we haven't seen in eons.
We share nothing in common with these people anymore.
We are now effectively two separate Americas.
A socialist spying, police state, fake impeachment,
MS-13 loving, North Korea worshiping left.
Remember that when they were on Kim Jong-un's side, when he was debating with,
oh, Kim Jong-un, we can't, just because Trump was on the other side.
That's the new left.
We don't share anything in common with these people anymore.
Anything.
Let them have their little power enclaves in New York, California, and Chicago. The rest of the country is now effectively ours.
But it's only ours if we vote and do it the right way.
Get Aunt Betty.
Get Uncle Bobby.
Get everybody.
Everybody.
Tattoo this day on your skulls write it on your mirrors take a note in your calendar put it on your iphone set a reminder if you don't vote you are the problem
oh voting doesn't matter. It mattered last night.
Cut the crap.
Sure did.
No victims here.
It mattered last night.
If we would have shown up and not vote and voted for the Republicans on the House side instead of these tyrannical Democrats. Listen, as I said last night, the Republicans are not the solution to your problems, obviously.
But the cause of your problems, obviously, but the cause of your
problems are most definitely the Democrats. We don't worship golden calves, but given two choices,
eh, these guys ain't so great, but these guys are definitely the cause of my problems. I'll take the
not so great guys because I live in the real world. It's not heaven is earth this is dystopia not utopia we live in make
it happen if we would have voted and had just 15 16 more votes we could have defeated this thing
instead we have fake moderate democrats kendra horn jared golden
sochiel torres small these are all congressional representatives in swing congressional districts Golden, Xochitl Torres Small.
These are all congressional representatives in swing congressional districts that are in office that voted to basically blow their nose with the Constitution yesterday.
Abigail Spanberger, Lamb the Sham, Conor Lamb running out Pennsylvania, who I hope Sean
Parnell defeats by 10 points in this election.
An American patriot running against Lamb the Sham.
Voting does matter.
No victims here.
No excuses.
You voted.
You got tax cuts.
You got historic economic growth.
You got conservative judges because you voted for Donald Trump.
It does matter.
Folks, listen, man, this is by no means.
And please, because I get emails, understandably, some people get offended.
I'm not talking to you, the good folks out there.
You get it.
But I have an opportunity using my voice to reach the 5% or less of this audience who I'm telling you emails me constantly defeated.
Oh, it's over. It's over.
It ain't over. Ass seat up and do something. It's not over. The Democrats voted. They got their
people and their people blew their nose with the constitution. 2020 is coming up. Now we pay back
the favor. There'll be a reckoning if you show up and do the right thing.
This is not directed at you. They say, well, why are we saying it? Because that 5% can change
everything. If they show up and grab uncle Tony and grab mama and daddy and the kids and their
stepbrother and their friends, and they show up and vote, that 5% can flip everything, ladies and gentlemen.
These 31 fake moderate lunatics
who voted for impeachment last night on a fake charge,
these fake Democrat moderates, won by slivers.
That's why this matters.
This is not ranting for the sake of ranting.
It's because action matters and talk is...
It's because action matters and talk is garbage.
We share nothing in common with these people.
You need to understand they have given up on America.
All right, I got a lot more.
Showing you, by the way way that voting matters polling matters showing up
matters knocking on doors matters donations matter this is blowing up in their faces we have a
historic opportunity to do an electoral backslap to the democrats like they haven't seen in eons
look at this article at the hill trump's approvals up six points since the launch of this inquiry.
Six points.
Six.
Do you understand how big that is?
We have an opportunity now to mobilize.
Ladies and gentlemen, anger and rage can be a powerful motivator.
The left uses it for the wrong reasons.
They get angry.
They're aggressive.
They worship violence.
You've seen Antifa and all these people they adore. That's what they do. They get angry. They're aggressive. They worship violence. You've seen Antifa and all these people they adore. That's what they do. They get violent. What we did with the Tea Party is we did change the direction of the country, albeit for a little while, but the fight wasn't over. We now have this opportunity to use this anger and rage we saw yesterday for something positive.
for something positive.
Now showing you what complete, utter frauds, phonies, fakes,
these complete liars and jokes.
Joe, what was their narrative yesterday?
This is a somber day.
If you watch the hearings, which I was unfortunate enough to have to do, watch these idiots up on Capitol Hill.
Every Democrat parroted the same garbage,
silly talking points.
It's a somber day.
But what garbage?
You've been trying to impeach the president
since he got into office.
Somber day.
Don't tell me it was, are you serious?
They were celebrating behind the scenes.
Let me show you my evidence here.
Here's a video taken by Rashida Tlaib,
radical leftist Congresswoman.
As radical as they get,
as far left as they come.
Remember, Joe, it's a somber day.
Here's a video she was dumb enough to take
on this somber day
to broadcast to her audience
to show you just how somber she was.
Play this video.
Hey, everyone.
I am on my way
to the United States House floor to impeach President Trump on behalf of my incredible district, 13 District Strong.
Let's do it.
Very somber.
Our staffers are laughing in the background.
How about that?
Hey, let's do this, man.
So somber.
So somber. so somber.
That, by the way, is Rashida Tlaib of Impeach the Mother fame.
You get the rest.
Get your mamas, get your daddies, get your uncles and aunts.
Show that that video right there should be a campaign ad
for every single person running on the
Republican ticket this next election.
This is what we're running against.
People who think it's funny impeaching a president for a fake crime, throwing the country into
turmoil while we finally got our heads out of this recession morass and we finally got
the economy on sound footing.
People can take a vacation.
Finally, people like me and Joe and Paula,
finally have some success.
We got some sponsors,
some companies that are doing well.
Yep.
People can go out,
buy a steak one Friday
instead of a chicken.
Finally, take maybe a few days off from work
they couldn't take before.
Joe and I just had this conversation.
Maybe take the kids to an amusement park.
This is all bull. This is all, this is all this whole thing.
Finally, finally, we get the country back on the right track.
And you got this complete numbskull taking a video of herself celebrating that she single-handedly trying to take down the president of the United States.
She was the one who, remember, impeached the MFR.
So somber, Joe.
So somber.
Oh, that's not it. You may say well that's it oh you thought it ended there
folks i could do a whole show on the somber tyrannical police state fraud phony fake filthy
democrats but let's throw a little reporter stuff in there because you know the washington post joe
democracy dies in the darkness they're all about journalism. All journalism.
All the time, folks.
The Washington Post are the serious people.
You truckers, carpenters, electricians, drivers, ten knockers, steam fitters,
architects, pilots, grave diggers.
Those are the serious people, not you.
Those are the serious people at the Washington Post, folks.
You're not serious, they are.
They're the important people.
Well, here's a tweet last night from a Rachel Bade,
if that's how you say it.
I'll just call her Rachel Bade.
She's at Rachel M. Bade.
She deleted it, of course just call her Rachel Bade. She's at Rachel M. Bade. She deleted
it, of course, because she's a fool. Merry Impeachmas from the Washington Post team.
And look, we've got a whole bunch of people who claim to be journalists. Mike DeBonis,
Seoung Kim, whoever that other person is, I don't even know. P even know pk capital look at all of them celebrating
a merry impeachment rachel bidet okay rachel bidet rachel bidet i got that and by the way
i got that for reasons paula understands number one um that you're kind of funny um
maybe i'll explain that someday on a best them.
And by the way, for all of you who emailed me yesterday,
I got Joe's joke about the inject EJ.
I got it.
I got it. I didn't miss it.
I got it, Joe.
Okay.
Sometimes a joke is funnier when you just roll right past it.
Yes, it is.
I didn't miss it.
For those of you who missed the end of yesterday's show, I got it. When I don't get it, I tell it. Yes, it is sometimes. I didn't miss it. For those of you who missed the end of yesterday's show, I got it.
When I don't get it, I tell you.
I got bidet.
Bidet.
Hey.
Okay.
So Rachel's a serious person, of course, Joe.
She's a journalist.
You know, we're all inferior to her and should genuflect and wash her feet around the holidays
because they're so wonderful and democracy dies
in the darkness.
There's them celebrating
so somber.
So somber.
Such a somber moment, folks.
Now, forgive me.
I don't like to do this
because this is always...
This show is produced
to be an audio podcast first.
The video is an add-on
we love on YouTube.
We appreciate you watch it, youtube.com slash Bongino.
I don't like to do this often.
Now, this is audio and video, so it will work,
but I would really appreciate it
if you would check this out on my YouTube account
because the visuals are powerful here too.
This is Nancy Pelosi.
She's going to gavel down saying basically,
yes, you just voted.
We impeached the president.
I want you to listen in the background because folks,
it's a somber moment.
So clearly being that it's so somber that the Democrats are destroying the
country,
Joe,
you're going to,
what would you hear in the background in a somber moment?
Let me ask you this,
Joe somber,
because again,
we're trying to explain this to liberals who are some of the dumbest people on
the planet.
And I got an email this morning from my friend, Jim P good guy. He said, Dan, because again, we're trying to explain this to liberals who are some of the dumbest people on the planet. And I got an email this morning from my friend, Jim P, good guy. He said,
Dan, you know, you laced into liberals last night, folks. I I'm done. I'm sorry. I appreciate the feedback, Jim. Honestly, that's why I put my email out there. I'm done. You want to be nice
to liberals? Go right ahead. I'm done. They can plant one on my caboose. I'm finished after
yesterday. Okay. I'm not interested in being nice anymore.
And that this show might not be for everyone then.
If you want nicey time and cutesy time
in Mr. Rogers' neighborhood,
go find another show
because I'm done with the liberals.
I'm not talking about all Democrats.
The liberals who want to burn this country to the ground,
I'm finished.
Cutesy, nicey time is over.
Over.
And I'm not, I'm going to be doubling and tripling down.
So this might not be for everyone, and that's okay.
I'm just warning you now.
Gloves off.
Get your mamas, get your daddies, and get to the pools.
So, Joe, I'm going to ask you a simple question.
If this was a somber moment, like say
what else would be somber? Maybe a funeral?
Have you ever been to a funeral,
Joe, where they bring out
the corpse of the deceased and people start
clapping? Hey!
Have you ever seen that? I'm just asking.
I've never seen nothing like that.
It was not a trick question. I have not
seen this either. I have never been to a funeral where the corpse comes out, the body, and people start applauding.
I haven't seen that.
Now, Joe, a funeral, right?
We're not using insane logic here.
It would be a somber moment, correct?
Yes, it would be.
Yeah.
A somber moment might be the last moments of someone's life in a hospital.
Does anyone walk in and go, hey, buddy, this is great.
You're dying.
Glad we got rid of you.
I haven't seen that either.
I haven't seen that either.
Nope.
So Pelosi wearing her fake black outfit yesterday, pretending this is somber, despite Rashida
Tlaib, this is great.
Let's get it done like it's a Nike ad.
The Washington Post and those three morons are out of happy impeachments this is video audio of Nancy Pelosi gaveling in I want you to listen
to what happens in the background and I want you to watch if you can what Pelosi does because she
realizes oh boy is this not going to end well for them?
Check this out.
On this vote, the yeas are 230.
The nays are 197.
Present is one.
Article one is adopted.
The question is on adoption of Article 2.
Did you see it?
She threw him the look.
Yeah.
Oh, oh, did she throw them the look.
So they start applauding because, Joe, it's a somber moment.
And as you know, at funerals and on people's deathbeds and somber moments, people always applaud.
If you're a liberal, you do that because you're an imbecile by default. OK, so it's a somber moments people always applaud uh if you're a liberal you do that because you're an
imbecile by default okay so then of course it's a somber moment she declares the article of
impeachment is passed yay they're all clapping in their supposedly somber moment what does pelosi do
folks she points out she waves the finger and gives him a side eye like i've never seen before
like you better shut your pie holes soup coolers shut them pie holes shut them and
all of a sudden the republicans on the other side who caught it were like oh that's what you heard
please watch it on my youtube channel youtube.com slash bungino it's i just explained to you but it
is worth 10 seconds of your time you have to re-watch the whole show it is worth your time. You have to rewatch the whole show. It is worth your time. It's worth going for.
Yeah.
Because Pelosi,
who's disgraced herself,
by the way,
is not politically stupid.
She understands they just stepped in a monstrous pile of rhinoceros dung.
She knows this thing is going to blow up in her face.
So she's trying to portray it as a serious,
somber moment,
despite the fact that the Democrats are celebrating the destruction of America.
They're clapping. The Washington Post thinks it's great.
It's merry impeachment, according to the Washington Post, a disgrace of a newspaper.
I mean, not you're all smart. Not that you need me to tell you this.
But now do you understand why they're a joke?
Them in the New York Times, why you're never to take them seriously?
You know who I take seriously?
Our cops, our military, our manual laborers, our white-collar jobs.
Those are the people who make this country work.
Those are the people I take seriously.
These idiot losers up on Capitol Hill and these total complete zeros at the Washington Post, these are the
worst of us.
These are the worst, the absolute worst.
So somber, so somber.
I got more on Pelosi because there was some breaking news last night you may have missed
when I got off the air.
We found out that Nancy Pelosi, I've got some video on this,
is now threatening to usurp the Constitution again
and withhold the articles of impeachment.
Wow.
Oh, oh, I've got some developments on this one.
We're going to pay for the show first.
Folks, today's show also brought to you by buddies at OMAX.
Listen, on a serious note, if you have not tried this cryo-free CBD, they have this new
gel recovery cream.
It is so good.
Folks, I have really horrendous arthritis.
Now, if you're one of the thousands that purchased OMAX Health Cryo-Free CBD, the pain relief
roll-on that you know I love, it's been coming to the rescue for me and many of my listeners
for instant joint pain, then you don't want to miss this. This is a brand new product.
It's the first time I've talked about it on my podcast. Omax has given me an exclusive
on the launch of their new cryo-free CBD sport recovery cream. Folks, it's just simple. Watch
the cream. Rub it on. Paula, how good does this stuff work? She's laughing because she knows.
Rub it on.
Paula, how good does this stuff work?
She's laughing because she knows.
Look at that.
You feel that right now.
Look at that.
I have bad elbows.
What are you saying?
What are you looking at? You're looking at my face as I am getting the instant pain relief and cooling effect.
I'm not kidding of Cryo Freeze's new CBD cream.
This is some of the greatest stuff.
I love this sponsor.
Go with it, baby.
It's one of my personal faves.
I use it all the time because I have the worst arthritis known to humankind.
It's that bad.
Cryo-free CBD sport recovery cream provides instant cooling relief and moisture.
I'm not kidding when I tell you I've been bathing in this stuff after the Brazilian
jujitsu classes that resulted in this black eye.
Bathing.
I jump in a bath of it.
It's that good. You can use it daily to refresh and
revitalize those tired, achy joints and muscles. Folks, why do you need this in addition to the
CryoFreeze Excellent Roll-On we love too? Well, the Pain Relief Roll-On provides targeted relief
for very painful areas. The Sport Recovery Cream I just put on is an ultra-rich moisturizing cream
with the same icy cold relief as the
roll-on, but it can be used all over your body, including legs, feet, back, shoulders,
wrists, and hands.
It's great for larger areas.
It's super moisturizing, and it's non-greasy.
This powerhouse of a recovery cream includes broad-spectrum CBD with 0% THC, so there's
no high in this, no high at all. Plus 10 natural healing botanicals,
including magnesium, which is great for muscle cramps and arnica for circulation and bruising.
It features Canna Microsphere technology, which is a new delivery system for CBD that only Omax has,
which helps deliver faster and more powerful results. This stuff is fantastic. If you have
sore muscles, backaches, arthritis, like me, stiff joints, or you just feel like you need
to revitalize your body, then you cannot miss trying out CryoFreeze CBD Sport
Recovery Cream.

All right.
It is that good.
I'm not messing with you.
I know they're a sponsor and all, but when I get out of that jiu-jitsu class,
I look like this and I feel even worse.
That's what makes it really hard.
I love jujitsu, but I'm getting it.
Some of you missed the show the other day.
My eye is fine.
I took a bad knee to the eye.
Guy was doing a drill on top control and wound up kneeing me in the face as he was trying to go to a different position.
He's a nice guy, but it didn't really.
I'm fine.
I don't want you to worry about it.
Okay, moving on. in position. He's a nice guy, but it didn't really. I'm fine. I don't want you to worry about it.
Okay, moving on. So as if it wasn't enough for Pelosi, Rashida Tlaib, and fake moderate Democrats like Spanberger and Jared Golden and others to vote for impeachment, as if that wasn't
enough, now that Pelosi is threatening to withhold the articles of impeachment from the Senate,
you may say, Joe, what the heck is going on here?
Let's listen to Pelosi explain it last night on CNN
after this disastrous impeachment passed.
Check this out.
Could you presume we withhold the articles for weeks
until you get what you consider a fair trial?
Well, again, we'll decide what that dynamic is,
but we hope that the resolution of that process will be soon in the Senate.
So just to be clear, Nancy Pelosi, speaker of the House, after voting for the impeachment
articles last night passed.
The Constitution says the House
shall have the sole power of impeachment.
They did it.
It's over.
Now, folks, liberal blue checkmark Twitter and others.
Liberals are not bright.
So I went on Twitter last night
and liberals were dopey enough to think
that the impeachment meant President Trump was being removed.
I'm not kidding.
Look at Twitter, put impeachment pence.
Folks, it goes on and on.
Liberals, they're really dopey.
Liberals thought that meant President Trump was being removed from office last night.
Last night, they were lamenting.
Oh, my gosh.
Mike Pence is president now.
Yes, they're that stupid.
The impeachment is just a charge.
The Senate to convict on the charge runs the trial.
The Senate to convict on the charge runs the trial.
Having said that, Nancy Pelosi has absolutely no constitutional authority whatsoever to withhold articles of impeachment from a Senate trial.
None.
Let me read to you the Constitution, Article 1, Section 3.
The Senate has the sole power, S-O-L-E, not S-O-U-L, Senate has the sole power to try impeachment.
Impeachment's done. It happened. Right. It doesn't say, Joe, the Constitution, Article 1,
Section 3, the Senate has the sole power to try impeachment when Pelosi says so.
Do you understand? She's completely gone outside the framers, Will, the Constitution, the four corners of our founding documents, and is now making up the law as she goes.
You may say, what do we do? Clubs, glovies, off. Get your mamas, get your daddies, everybody shows up to vote.
Get your mamas, get your daddies.
Everybody shows up to vote.
So what do we do about this?
Well, first, before we get to what we do,
you may be saying,
because I'm getting a look here in the background,
well, why is she doing that?
If they're so proud of their impeachment,
why not send it on to the Senate?
There you go. Because they're not proud of it.
Outside of the lunatic left,
these 31 Democrats know
that if this impeachment trial in the Senate drags on, these
31 Democrats in Trump districts,
they're going to get smoked in the 2020
election. Lamb
the Sham, Kendra Horn,
Golden, Spanberger,
they're going to get
crushed. This
impeachment is historically
unpopular. Do you follow this
audience on Budsman, Joe?
Sure.
Pelosi is trying to come together and bring together two disparate groups of her own party.
The radical Rashida Tlaib squad leftists who just want to throw out the Constitution and
put Trump in jail for no reason. And the moderate fake
moderates who know this is the end of their political careers, Alyssa Slotkin, fake moderate
Democrat from Michigan vote her out too. They're fake. They're not real. They voted for impeachment
yesterday. So these 31 fake moderates who are really radical leftists in disguise, they're
only concerned about their own power. So they probably to pelosi and said hey listen you pass this over to the senate
controlled by the gop this thing's gonna get even worse i mean think about it put yourself in their
shoes if you're running for congress as a democrat in a trump district you just made the best case
you could possibly make for impeachment using the sleaziest liars known to man, Nadler and Schiff.
Two sleazy liars.
You made the best case you could.
The Democrats controlled the whole process in the House.
They kept the Republican witnesses from testifying.
They made the best case they could make.
What they thought were the best witnesses, Joe, and Trump's approval is up six points.
Up. And support for impeachment is down you're a democrat running for congress in a trump district now you're thinking what now we're going to pass this hot potato to the gop controlled
senate who now they're going to run things gloves off tommy's we're going to pass it off yeah yeah
you're darn right mitch mccoy you're going to pass it off yeah yeah you're darn right Mitch McConnell you're gonna pass it
off to Mitch who has shown thankfully no willingness to cave to the police state
tyrannical democrat demands none yeah
understand the best you ever had at democrats just ended last night because now we control it.
So Pelosi saying, well, I don't think we're going to get a fair trial.
She doesn't believe in a fair trial.
Ladies and gentlemen, you have Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar, four senators who either have run for president or are running for
president against Donald Trump as jurors.
And you're laughably asking about a fair trial.
Okay.
Hard pass on that one.
Take that,
crumble it up,
put that one right in the garbage.
So she's threatening now to withhold articles of impeachment.
She's on chatting away right now.
So the great one,
Mark Levin,
who I filled in last night, I put out a facebook post and a few tweets
tomorrow with what i believe is where we should go next i hope mcconnell staff and some of the
republicans are listening levin's proposal is brilliant if nancy pelosi refuses to pass on
the articles of impeachment given that the democrats uh constitutionally their role is done
they've impeached them it's over they have They have no role now. Now it's the Senate. Article one,
section three. The Senate has the sole power to try them. Levin suggests that Mitch McConnell
should declare the articles of impeachment then null and void. No trial, no nothing. Thank you.
Have a nice day. But Dan, the press will say it wasn't fair. No, no, it was fair. We gave you the
opportunity. You did your job. You impeached them. you passed it on or you refused to pass it on therefore the trial's null and void you just said you don't
want the charges to move forward okay thank you keep in mind by the way these silly foolish
democrats are now telling you that they won't have a fair trial in the senate because they
need new witnesses despite voting to impeach the president on what they said
were comprehensive charges based on their own witnesses.
So our witnesses were so good, we're going to impeach the president.
But we're not going to send the charges over to the Senate
because we don't have enough witnesses
because we're not sure the crime happened?
Wait, what?
Huh?
Levin is right bingo
Mitch should declare today
if she refuses to pass the charges over to the Senate
it's null and void
we will consider it no further
thanks for playing though
have a nice Christmas
I got more got some other suggestions virginia has been a great inspiration for me lately you
second amendment advocates out there in virginia take a bow the democrats want to ignore the
constitution mcconnell should ignore them The Democrats want to ignore the Constitution and the
will of the people. The people should start ignoring them. There's nothing liberals hate
more, Joe, than when you ignore them. You may say, oh, really? No, really? No. Yeah, really.
There is nothing tyrants and police staters hate more than when you mock them, laugh at them,
and completely ignore them. Nah, we're just not going to do that. Something going on in Virginia,
you are not going to want to miss. And it fits in right now.

All right. Thanks, ExpressVPN. We appreciate that. So as I said with Virginia,
if the Democrats and the tyrannical police staters are going to ignore the will of the people,
ignore the Constitution, blow their nose with the Constitution like a Kleenex,
then ladies and gentlemen, we should start ignoring them. Oh my gosh, you can't say that.
Oh no, I just did.
I can say whatever I want.
It's my show.
So what is going on in Virginia?
Let me put this Washington Examiner article up by the great Paul Bedard, good friend,
good man.
This will be up in the show notes today.
And it's up at BonginoReport.com too.
The alternative to the left-leaning drudge report.
Seriously, go to BonginoReport.com, check it out.
Uprising.
Uprising.
seriously, go to BonginoReport.com, check it out.
Uprising.
90% of Virginia County's become gun sanctuaries,
expanding the movement to nine more states.
Yes, yes.
How about that? Liberals, like I told you,
you want to take the constitution
and you want to make it your bath towel?
Okay.
You don't think the rules,
see the whole purpose of a constitution
is they're binding rules for all of us.
The liberals seem to think they're only binding rules for conservatives.
So liberals, you wanted to start this trend.
Remember, oh, we're going to do sanctuary cities where we're going to ignore immigration law.
Okay, well, we're going to ignore your laws too.
Long and short of this is Virginia Governor Blackface North.
Remember him? Blackface guy?
But we don't know, actually.
Was it him and Blackface or the Ku Klux Klan outfit?
We still don't know.
He hasn't admitted which one he is.
I'm not sure which one's worse.
I mean, they're both pretty awful.
Governor blackface or Ku Klux Klan guy Northam.
He wants to confiscate your guns in Virginia.
Him and his Democrats, who now took over the state of Virginia, shamefully,
they want to come to your house and start taking your guns.
We were told that was a conspiracy theory.
I'm going to get to that in a minute.
Yeah.
So basically, Virginians, who I love, I lived in Maryland for a long time.
Virginia and Maryland are like New Jersey and New York.
It's almost like the same thing.
You go back and forth.
Virginians are not about to give up their liberty so easily.
By the way, we have this thing called the Constitution, which protects the the right to bear arms so all of these are unconstitutional laws anyway
so feel free um to just do what you're doing and ignore them because they're illegal they're not
real laws okay so from the washington examiner piece here's what we got stirred awake by democratic
proposals to take register and possibly seize their legally obtained weapons,
which again is entirely unconstitutional, Virginia gun owners in just 43 days have pushed 90% of the
state counties to become gun sanctuaries. The latest three on Monday night. Nice job.
Good job, Virginia. This is providing a nice model, by the way, as we can see for the rest
of the country from this other screenshot from the Paul Bedard excellent piece I encourage you to read today. This has become kind of a national model
for the movement that has now reached Illinois, Washington, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, New Jersey,
Florida, and Tennessee. Illinois is credited with starting the movement.
Oh, wait, wait, what? You loved your sanctuary cities on immigration keep in mind there is
no constitutional right to migrate to the united states anywhere right right right none there is
however a constitutional right to keep and bear arms with some restrictions felons domestic
violence and i think people understand that There is a constitutional right to do that.
So let me get this straight, liberals. Your logic is we can ignore a law about immigrating or
emigrating to this country. We can ignore that in our cities. But the Constitution, when you
actually obey the Constitution in some of these conservative areas that somehow you have a problem with no thanks we're just we're just going to ignore
you how does that feel believe me when i tell you there is nothing liberals hate more than when you
ignore them and libs i know this is going to trigger you we're just not going to listen
but thanks for playing oh but you thought the Democrats would take that lying down?
No, because they're police state tyrants.
So here's a piece in Bongino.com done by Matt Palumbo,
who writes for us over there, does a lot of debunking.
And in the Bongino.com piece titled,
Virginia is proving just how impossible it is to enforce gun control by Matt Palumbo.
He puts up this little gem at the end about what Virginia is possibly contemplating.
This could be one of the dumbest moves I've ever heard of in American history.
Virginia lawmakers are almost now entirely out of options to enforce any forthcoming
gun control laws. Yeah, because we're just ignoring you. I'll keep my guns, but thanks for playing.
So desperate are they now that they've actually floated publicly the possibility of getting the
National Guard involved. In a statement, the Virginia National Guard said they would not speculate about their use in the future
and encourage people to be patient.
They also clarified that Virginia's governor had not reached out to them
about enforcing any gun control measures in the future yet.
Folks, that's not going to end well.
That is a really, really bad idea.
Do you understand-
Conspiracy theories?
Again, it was all a conspiracy theory
until they're actually talking about it.
Look at that.
Do you understand how dangerous
of a situation you're creating?
And by dangerous, I want to be clear.
I don't mean that Virginia residents
are going to start attacking the nation.
That's not what I'm saying.
What I'm suggesting is
you're seriously talking about
military vehicles
in our streets, in
communities in Virginia doing door-to-door
searches for people's guns?
You're
serious now.
Can you imagine the
miscommunication problems that could result
in a very dangerous situation here?
Oh, gosh.
How is this fair to our National Guardsmen and women?
How?
Please explain to me how putting them in a potential...
These are not law enforcement officers.
It's our National Guard.
They don't do this every day.
You're going to put them in a situation asking them to do door-to-door searches in our communities?
Oh, that's going to make for some great social media video, folks.
You want to talk about an electoral landslide in 2020?
Bring your mamas.
Bring your baby mamas.
Bring Uncle Tony.
Everybody.
You want to talk about a landslide?
Wait till we start seeing videos of National Guard Humvees
rolling down the streets doing door-to-door searches.
Well, that's going to end very well for the Democrats in 2020.
Dopes.
I used to respect the tactics of the Democrats
while firmly disagreeing with their ideology.
Now it's confirmed.
They are full-blown
imbeciles. You really thought freedom-loving Americans were just going to sit back
and let you take their constitutionally authorized weapons? They defend themselves
and their families. You really thought that was going to happen? You're dumber than you look. And believe me, a lot of you look really, really dumb.
All right. There's a lot more yesterday outside of the impeachment fiasco, which I told you last
night on Levin. The impeachment farce was designed to do one thing. It was designed to distract you
from the Democrats' massive spying scandal.
The Democrats engaged with the Obama administration in the biggest spying scandal in U.S. history.
The IG report showed it.
I've covered that over the course of the week.
The Democrats are now lying about that, too.
Now, you might have missed this yesterday when their strategically planned impeachment
hearing, because there was a devastating little bombshell that was launched yesterday.
When Michael Horowitz went back,
you may have missed it,
to the Senate
and had a few words he chose.
Here's video last night,
because we've been told, Joe,
Michael Horowitz, the IG report on the Spygate scandal,
that Joe Horowitz said there was no political bias. We told that right damn right that's exactly yeah that's funny because
i didn't hear harwood say that i didn't hear him write it in his report i didn't see it in his
report i didn't hear it in his house hearing either the democrats of course are liars and
so are their media phony fraud hack buddies but here's what harwoodowitz actually said that got lost in the maelstrom yesterday up in the Senate about political bias.
Libs, cotton out of ears, insert in mouth now.
Check this out.
I know we talked earlier about you're pretty confident there is no political bias in the opening of the investigation with Bill Priestap.
We did not find evidence.
And as to him, we knew who made the decision.
We could focus specifically on him.
But you definitely in both these investigations, you found political bias.
We found through the text messages, evidence of people's political bias. Correct.
Oh, oh, oh.
Again, folks, I'm really sorry if you're not watching this show or Hannity or listening to Levin and you're listening to Stelter and Chuck Todd, the one and two dumbest guys in the media.
Roswell Rach over on MSNBC.
Nicole Wallace, clueless, you know, just I mean, been on the wrong side of if you're listening to him you understand you're not actually getting the truth i'm sorry you're doing that but listen if you choose to do
it that's just really a statement to your own low iq that you choose to listen to people who are
openly lying to you harwood said there was no political bias did you just hear what i just heard
that is not what he said he was just asked specifically by Senator Ron Johnson from Wisconsin
as we document on Bongino.com
today, IG Horowitz
the Senate, we found evidence
of people's political bias, that's a quote
I know liberals
you don't know what a quote is, it's those little
markers, you know, beginning and end, the twofer
the onefer if it's
with a quote within a quote, you know how that works
they don't get it.
They're not bright enough to figure it out.
You just heard it.
Read the article at Bongino.com
in the show notes if you'd like the transcript
of what he said.
Here's when Josh Hawley,
another senator from Missouri,
asked this question. Josh Hawley said,
was it your conclusion that
political bias did not affect any part of the page investigation or any part of crossfire hurricane
here's Horowitz's answer to that oh my gosh I can't believe we're doing this we did not reach
that conclusion Horowitz replied we have been very careful in connection with the Pfizer for the reasons you mentioned to not reach that conclusion. Again, folks, if you're watching Roswell Rage, I mean, you're just, I don't know
what to tell you. You're just being lied to. And if you accept the lies, knowing the truth, think about what that says about you.
We choose Roswell over the truth.
Good for you.
Great.
Congratulations.
My audience, I'm not going to lie to them.
Now you have the ammunition you need.
He did not say there was no political bias. He clearly said we had evidence of political bias.
He said he did not reach the conclusion there was no political bias. They're said we had evidence of political bias. He said he did not reach the
conclusion there was no political bias. They're just making it up. You missed that yesterday,
of course, in the impeachment maelstrom. I've got more. Now, listen, I may have to go into a little
more depth on this tomorrow, so forgive me. And I say that because most of the interview is going to air
tonight, but we got our mitts on and I saw some of it on, it's not like cryptic or anything,
but I saw it. It's been out there. Martha McCallum, who hosts the 7 p.m. Eastern time show on Fox
News interviewed attorney general Bill Barr. It's going to air in full, I believe tonight,
but some of the portions of it have leaked out and some of it
had been promoted by Fox. I want to play two that are just, again, that the Democrats took a victory
lap and Jim Comey over the IG report, which was damning. And the fact, Joe, that that's just the
beginning, that this is about to get a whole lot worse when Barr and Durham released their own
report in the spring is hilarious. Like I said,
I used to respect these idiots because I thought they were tactically smart. Now they are officially
the dumbest party in Washington, DC. There's no doubt about it. Here's video number one,
Bill Barr just completely laying waste to the narratives. And I want you to pay special
attention. Martha McCallum asked him, hey, are you just looking into the DOJ stuff? Or are you
looking into the CIA, the intel community?
And Barr says something about looking into private companies, too.
Oh, boy. Check this out.
Do you believe that Durham's investigation is broader scoped in terms of the intelligence agencies that are being looked at?
Oh, yes. You know, he's not just looking at the FBI.
He's looking at other agencies and
also private departments and also private actors. And so it's a much broader investigation.
And also, he's not just looking at the FISA aspect of it. He is looking at all the conduct,
both before and after the election. Joe, we don't have a bar translator.
We do have a Nunes translator.
By the way, I will be interviewing Devin Nunes
and this is a can't-miss
interview. I'll be interviewing him
tomorrow, Friday.
I will post it

Don't forget the translator.
We have a new translator. We may need a bar translator.
Initiate bar translator dad
we're going to need
can you do that Joe please
because we're going to need a lot of this thank you
Joe's been doing a lot of extra work lately
because we have a big announcement coming for our West Coast
fans so Joe's working extra hard
what is he saying here folks
he says oh we're not just looking at
the FISA process either which is all
Horowitz was tasked with look at the FISA process either, which is all Horowitz was tasked with.
Look at the FISA by the FBI.
What does that mean?
I thought, according to the spy gang co-conspirators,
Joe, and the police state hacks,
that was the whole case.
The whole case, Joe, right, was just that the
FBI made some mistakes, spied on an
innocent American. My bad.
So sad. Is that not the story they've told us?
Golly! Golly, man! Well, that's what innocent American. My bad. So sad. Is that not the story they've told us?
Golly!
Golly, man! Well, that's what we heard. Well, that's not what
Barr just said. Now, if you initiate
the Barr translator, what Barr is
actually saying is something I've told you on the show
for now two and a half years.
Ladies and gentlemen, the scandal is called
Spygate, not Trumpgate.
The FISA process was designed to target
the Trump team.
Not the spying operation in general. If you didn't listen to yesterday's show because you
were caught up in the impeachment hearings, you made a big mistake. Please listen to yesterday's
show where we cover the Pied Piper candidates. Folks, I believe our intelligence community was
circumventing US laws, working with foreign partners to spy on possibly more than just Donald Trump.
That had nothing to do with the FISA.
Really? Oh, really?
Remember, Lisa Page at one point, FBI lawyer, is confused about the CIA and where they're getting their information from.
You won't be if you listen to yesterday's show. I'm telling you where they were getting their
information from. They were getting them from Five Eyes intelligence partners who are supposed
to be our friends, who were helping the Obama administration spy on candidates. It's that
simple. That's what Barr's talking about. Oh, we're just not looking at the FISA. In other words,
the formal stuff. We're looking at some other stuff. Then he says, we're looking at some private individuals and companies. What did he mean by that? Well,
again, some of you listen to my show every day probably already know.
Folks, Christopher Steele, I'm convinced, was not the only author of the dossiers. I've said
to you many times, I believe Glenn Simpson had significant input. I believe that based
on some of his wife's own comments and Glenn Simpson's past recordings.
on some of his wife's own comments in Glenn Simpson's past recordings.
But I also believe there was another contributor
to the dossier.
And I believe that contributed to the dossier.
And when you find out who it is,
it's going to be explosive
because I believe that contributed to the dossier
may have been freelancing and out there on their own.
The question's been for a very long time,
just how many people were feeding Steele information?
And were some of them out there in a money-making enterprise working for themselves, private
individuals, as Barr makes clear, private companies?
Folks, was the Pentagon Office of Net Assessment who paid Stefan Halper, who was spying for
the US government, on the Trump campaign team members?
who was spying for the U.S. government on the Trump campaign team members?
Were your tax dollars being used to pay private individuals and other companies to spy on behalf of your government?
Initiate Barr translator, Dan.
I think Barr may have some stuff on that.
You think he's talking about private individuals?
He's talking about like Pizza Hut hut like private companies like that he's talking about political opposition firms possibly paid by the
u.s taxpayer to spy on u.s candidates for office only the biggest scandal of our time he's also
talking about information from foreign intelligence partners flushed into the U S system to circumvent U S spying
laws and then use later on to obtain a FISA to,
to basically hoax the FBI into believing they had a real case.
Yeah.
Celebrate now libs,
your Mary impeachment and all your other stupid stuff.
Rachel bidet,
knock yourselves out.
Have a good time with Mike.
The bonus at your party right there,
humiliating yourselves,
the Washington post and all your entities. Good. Knock yourselves out. I hope you enjoy with Mike the Bonus at your party right there, humiliating yourselves, the Washington Post, and all your entities.
Good.
Knock yourselves out.
I hope you enjoy it.
Have fun at the party.
The party's going to be over real soon.
Let's play cut number two, the end of the show here.
But this is Bill Barr entirely discrediting and debunking the nonsense Jim Comey propagates
every day of his life.
Remember when Jim Comey said in one of his interviews, hey, listen, man, I couldn't control the investigation.
There were some mistakes, but it was seven layers down for me.
Ah, that's false.
Listen to Bill Barr totally discredit that nonsense.
He said I was seven steps removed from what was going on.
The director doesn't get involved in these kinds of things, the actual investigation.
Do you believe that? No. I think that one of the problems with what happened was precisely that they pulled the
investigation up to the executive floors and it was run and bird dogged by a very small group of
very high level officials. And the idea that this was seven layers below him is simply not true.
Okay.
Thanks,
Bill.
Mr.
Attorney general out of respect.
I shouldn't say that.
I really liked this guy.
Folks.
That's a total lie.
Jim Comey's headquarters team did the exact opposite of what they should have
done.
These counterintelligence investigations usually handled in the field.
They purposely removed it from the field. They purposely
removed it from the field and took it to headquarters
so Comey and his team could run it. This is a
total fabrication. He's making the whole thing up.
The whole thing. Because that's
what Jim Comey does. Because Jim Comey's a liar.
And a fraud.
