This is insane. As of 2024, it's been reported that the interest we pay in the national debt has surpassed every budget item except social security.

For over 20 years, Birch Gold Group has helped thousands protect their savings by converting an IRA or 401k into an IRA in physical gold. Just text Dan to 989898.

I'm really sorry. It's a horrible day in the United States, which used to be a constitutional republic. It's a horrible day in the United States, which used to be a constitutional republic. It's a horrible day where the whole idea of a separation of powers, right?

There were checks and balances both horizontally and vertically within the system. It was designed to make sure one faction of the government didn't, in a zero-sum game of liberty, steal yours for themselves. That's all falling apart. Institutions are collapsing everywhere. We got Supreme Court leakers going on. We got Supreme Court justices not willing to defend basic rights like the First Amendment. We've got an FBI targeting American citizens. We've got a CIA using their intel operation to steal elections. We've got a bureaucracy like the SEC and the FTC and these other organizations targeting American companies.

Folks, the government is completely turned on us. It is a rotting cancer. Reagan was right. I'm from the government. I'm here to help are the most dangerous words in the English language. We now know our own CIA. Our own CIA has been targeting American citizens. This is stunning.

Miranda Devine has this bombshell out, and she means it. CIA top officials interfered in the 2020 election by basically clearing the Hunter Biden laptop letter. Folks, leave this up a second, please, guys. Do you understand no one in the government thought that the actual Hunter Biden laptop was a Russian asset operation. Nobody. The FBI knew it was real.

They'd already confirmed it. The CIA knew it too. And yet they authorized Joe Biden's team, Tony Blinken and them, to go out and marshal up 51 dipshits to say that it was a Russian op. Your CIA stole the freaking 2020 election. Now listen to me, I get it. I know guys, leave that, leave this up one second, please. These guys are good. They're like, yeah. I know the word bombshell is overused. I get it. I'm with you. And I hate it too. Folks, this is legit a bombshell. The CIA we now know knew about this. Senator Ron Johnson's like, well, now it explains why CIA Director Haspel

basically didn't want to give us any information, wouldn't even schedule a phone call. Gina Haspel had damn well better be getting a congressional subpoena before this election, hopefully in the coming weeks, be getting a congressional subpoena before this election, hopefully in the coming weeks, to explain what the she was doing when the CIA authorized, even de facto authorized, to release this letter. Okay, I'm done with that, guys. I appreciate it. Even CIA insiders, ladies and gentlemen, knew that this would destroy the reputation of the CIA. knew that this would destroy the reputation of the CIA.

Here, here's an unclassified email that was released. Can you just blow that up a little bit? Oh, I see it on the screen right here, sorry. This frustrates me. I don't think it's helpful to the agency, the CIA in the long run. Sigh. Not the name sigh, S-I-G-H.

They knew, they knew. They stole the election. They knew. Folks, here's the great Kash Patel. I love some Kash Patel. Kash is on Fox. Kash was a upper-level Trump administration official, many levels of government, ridiculously smart guy. Here's Kash Patel on Fox talking about how the CIA and FBI knew the laptop was real. They had access and they stole the election anyway. There's now no longer any doubt our government has been hijacked. The institutions will not save you. They'll come after you. Check this out.

Just get your take on this, Kash. The breaking news is coming out of the House Intel Committee just a short time ago. They're saying the letter that called Hunter Biden's laptop Russian disinformation, that the CIA, they're saying from the highest levels, including the CIA director, knew about that letter and they did nothing to stop it. This is another example of exploding the lies from that letter. They said that none of the individuals that signed it had access to classified information when multiple signatories were intelligence communities, contractors with classified intelligence access. And the CIA director, the top intel official in the CIA whose office was presented the letter, had access to sit silent and deprive the American people of the truth to execute a political vendetta she had. This is the IC run amok and another application, misapplication of law in the two tier system of justice in intelligence.

Brothers and sisters, listen, I get it. I understand. I want to say this again. I understand the word bombshell in the media is overused. There's a tendency towards engagement farming and click baiting with people. I get it. We're all guilty of it at some point. And I apologize in advance. We try to limit it, but we're all guilty of it.

I understand. Please explain to me how this is not a legitimate bombshell. The CIA, which is not even supposed to be targeting Americans, not only targeted Americans, but targeted Donald Trump, and was a key player in stealing an election that determined the course of the country. Wars broke out. Inflation broke out. The borders wide open. There were terrorists in the country. The CIA whose sole job, am I wrong? Folks in the chat, call me out if I'm crazy. Their one job is what? To gather an international intelligence portfolio

to help decision makers make decisions to secure the United States. Is that an accurate sentence-long summary? Pretty much, correct? What was the CIA's role in 2020? To steal an election by creating fake information and feeding it to the media with the imprimatur of truth on it? And Gina Haspel says nothing? Are you shitting me? This is real, man. You think this election isn't serious?

You think this debate, oh, no big deal? I'm not saying you think that. Do you realize what we're up against if Joe Biden wins? This is going to become SOP. The CIA is out of control. The FBI is out of control. Supreme Court staffers out of control. Military officials out of control teaching sex changes and DEI. That's the bad news. More in a minute, but first. We recently had monumental news

that no one's talking about. For the first time in our history, it's been reported that the interest we pay in the national debt surpassed every individual budget item except social security. That's right. The U.S. now spends more on interest than on national defense or even Medicare. And it's only getting worse as big government continues to spend like drunken sailors. That's why savvy investors, central banks, and concerned savers are turning to gold, something not tied to the inflated U.S. dollar. You can too with the help of Birch Gold, B-I-R-C-H.

We have a once in a lifetime opportunity to change this, folks. Everybody out there is reading this Trump presidency all wrong, all wrong. Oh, he's only got four years. Folks, he doesn't have the pressure of reelection. He is the first president in a very

long time to come into office with presidential experience. He knows where all the bodies are buried. He knows all the tricks. He knows all the scams. He has no pressure for reelection. Four years in the government is an eternity to clean the rot out. We have a real opportunity here. More good news.

Because I am optimistic. I mean it. Don't let this show scare you, okay? Anxiety produces action. Action produces good outcomes. We create strong men right now. That's what we do. And women. The Magazonians out there. Folks, cutesy time is over.

And you're getting a growing crop of Republicans who get this. I'm not telling you we don't still have weak-kneed swampies. We do. I get it. But there is unquestionably a growing crop of Republican commentators, political leaders, electeds, even judges out there, Judge Cannon and others, who actually get it and are willing to fight.

Here's Ana Paulina Luna, who I'm really starting to like. She's not effing around, folks. Merrick Garland doesn't want, our Attorney General, disgraceful human being, doesn't want to produce the tapes of Joe Biden talking to the special counsel about his records theft. Why? Because they're probably horrible. So she's holding him in inherent contempt.

Like, hey, we're going to lock this guy up. If he doesn't do something, good for you. Check this out. It's important to note that when an individual is called for courts across the country, they appear. Why should the attorney general, who is supposed to be head of all law enforcement authorities, any different? Garland still has time to comply with this request. We are asking that he bring the tapes to the House and let us listen to them. But in the event that he does not, we will press forward with calling the privilege motion

on inherent contempt to the floor on Friday morning. It is also important to note that if we as a congress do not have the ability to enforce our investigative ability that we are essentially going to be ignored and undercut and essentially handicapped by all other branches which would make us not a co-equal branch of government listen maybe uh maybe i'm an maybe i'm an optimist inappropriately so i I don't know, folks, listen, I've been through a lot. So have you, it's some sob story who gives a shit. We all have our own stressors in life and stuff, but I'm telling you my little battle with that cancer thing,

which I try not to talk about too much because everybody's got their own problems and no one wants to hear about mine. But if you're going to be here with me every day, I want you to understand what goes on in my head really changed everything. When someone tells you something like that and you think you, you know, you're not going to make it that long. And then you find out you will,

you like things really change, man. I hear all this stuff about pharmacological chain. Oh my gosh. Ketamine psilocybin. I was a different person. You know what would make you a different person? Someone telling you you could die and then tell you, no, I think you'll be okay. Let me tell you something. It changes you quick. I'm optimistic, man.

I'm seeing it everywhere I go now. You get people now, they're not interested in bullshit anymore. They're just not. They don't want to hear about, oh, no, no, those are mostly good guys and, oh, look, the white knights coming around the corner to save us. They're all like, no, no, we're going to save ourselves. Power's the solution. We're going to take it. around the corner to save us. They were all like, no, no, we're going to save ourselves. Power's the solution. We're going to take it.

Everybody's going to get fired. We're going to rebuild the thing, and it's going to be different. Bullshit cutesy time is over. You're seeing it everywhere. No one's taking the FBI's word on anything anymore. Oh, the FBI said so. Okay, I believe the opposite then. Oh, the media said so. What, I believe the opposite then. Oh, the media said so.

What did they say? What did they say? If the media told me tomorrow, three plus three equals six, I got to tell you, I'd have to check the math. Because they're full of shit. But we have a growing crop of real journalists out there too. We do.

Yes, we do. Darren Beattie, Julie Kelly, Taibbi, others out there doing actual work. Here's Julie Kelly yesterday. You still trust the FBI? This is hilarious. You see this tweet? Part of a motion filed yesterday by Walt Nauta, good guy, he's Donald Trump's assistant, by his attorney. This is how seriously, folks, the FBI took the handling of top secret government files at Mar-a-Lago.

They ran out of classified cover sheets, you know, that they could stage on the floor. They ran out. So what did they do? Show them the picture, guys. This is real. This is not a joke. This is what they put.

This is not a joke. I am not messing with you. This is from the official court filings. For those of you listening on Apple and Spotify, what is it, guys? It's a piece of paper in handwriting. Secret Doc. This is from the official court filings. For those of you listening on Apple and Spotify, what is it, guys? It's a piece of paper in handwriting. Secret Doc.

This is your FBI. You guys are really on the ball, man. I guess you didn't put that in a picture because it didn't look good. You needed the fake cover sheets instead. Secret Doc, one page. It's our FBI, man. I'm sorry. I should be crying. It's unbelievable. Nobody trusts you anymore. You have the opportunity in a Trump administration with a bunch of new people there to rebuild trust in our FBI, rebuild trust in our secret service that got rolled at Mar-a-Lago. We have an opportunity

to do that because let me tell you something. I worked there. You guys, when I was there, you worked for us. You worked for us. If you don't like that, go get a private sector job where you work for yourself. That's what I do now. You work for the taxpayers. You don't have to like it.
