The Dan Bongino Show - The Swamp Strikes Back (Ep 1161)

Episode Date: January 17, 2020

In this episode, I address the latest, outrageous political attack on President Trump from deep within the government swamp. I also address more troubling connections between the Democrats and the Spygate, Ukraine, Uranium One players. Finally, I discuss the media’s obsession with Lev Parnas and his severe credibility issues.  News Picks:Jim Comey is in deep trouble.    The GAO said Obama broke the law too. Why wasn’t Obama impeached?   Lev Parnas’s credibility continues to get flushed down the toilet.     This February 2019 article documents the Clintons troubling connections to a suspect Russian enterprise.   What was the Skolkovo project really about?   Copyright Dan Bongino All Rights Reserved.

All of these anti-Trump scandals are all tied together. These people know each other. We nailed Ukraine this week. We nailed the whole spy gate debacle. And I've been covering that today. I have the final piece of this puzzle on again, how all these people know each other and they all need something.

All of the anti-Trump conspiracy theories are run by the same folks. Today. I have what they're really hiding. These people who know each other in Russia and the Clinton, you're not going to want to miss that section. We'll get to the news of the day. First, welcome to the Dan Bongino show producer,

Joe. How are you today? It's Friday. It's Friday. It's Friday. And Joe, because you know, of course, the liberal media, despite the fact that all we do is fax and data on the show, they will call us conspiracy theorists because Joe has his conspiracy theory tinfoil cap on to deflect the rays penetrating his skull. Very good, Joe. I can't take it anymore.

Following, I know you can't, following up on yesterday's show. Well done, Joe. That's his media deflection device from the media conspiracy theories. You got to laugh at me out of that one. Nice.

Joe getting ahead of me with the bell for the first time ever but that's okay that's okay all right first before we get to what they're really hiding in russia uh as i said this has been the what are they really hiding the democrats week where we've uncovered all the connections between these people who know each other i wanted to be sure i nailed this first because yesterday breaking news while we were on the air Joe you know regarding the holding of the Ukrainian military aid that's become the subject of this

impeachment fiasco which the Democrats falsely allege uh was being held up because President Trump wanted uh an investigation open in the Hunter Biden there was no one-for-one deal there that's been debunked thoroughly. There is no evidence of that. There are no victims in this case. The Ukrainians have not alleged that the military aid was held up for investigations. Nobody is alleged yet. This is an alleged crime he's being impeached for with no victims, which is puzzling. So while not a few understand Democrats in the media. But yesterday we had another big story. And the story was that the GAO, the government accountability office that works for the Congress,

of course, came out and said, president Trump may have broken the law with delaying the aid. And everybody was like, yes, the media people were like, this is great. We have another stupid talking point.

Yeah. To take down president Trump. This is wonderful. We saw this story come out. Media celebrated. They were all cracking champagne. They had a little Dom Perignon, maybe tequila shots, maybe a little Casa Dragones or something, maybe some margaritas, who knows?

But they were celebrating. Well, that was until we found out that the GAO alleging that this delay in Ukrainian military aid was illegal until we found out that the GAO has accused just about every president in American history since its inception of breaking the law by doing things like this. And the best piece of it, nice, look at Paul getting ahead of me, I like that.

The best piece I saw on this was by Matt Margolis in PJ Media, story that'll be up at the show notes. Headline, the GAO ruled Obama broke the law in 2014, but no one called for Obama's impeachment. crazy how that happens it's just insane so now we want to impeach the president like the gao says he broke the law so now we have grounds for impeachment keep in mind this was not even an impeachment charge this was not even an impeachment charge this gao thing because it just happened yesterday right now you may say well i gotta this is gonna get more interesting in a moment so don't go anywhere oh are you rebelling us here there's no second round bell there's no

second round bell you totally but no no there's no second round bell so the gao has said clearly that this president donald Trump, broke the law, the media celebrating. But again, nobody called for Obama's impeachment when they said the same thing. Now, I've got a few points on this, but let me go to the PJ media piece first, because this is an important takeaway. Back in 2014, the GAO ruled that Obama's prisoner swap of five detainees at Gitmo in exchange for deserter Bo Bergdahl violated federal law. I don't remember the calls for impeachment back then. Yeah. This is the GAO statement. 8-1-1-1 of the Department of Defense Appropriation Act when it transferred five individuals detained at Gitmo, Cuba to a nation to the nation of Qatar without providing at least 30 days notice to certain congressional committees. The GAO explained where were the calls for Obama's impeachment then over the GAOs?

And by the way, this is an unconstitutional thing. It's been fought by every president. The GAO has accused. I'm not kidding, folks. Every president, the GAO has accused, I'm not kidding, folks. This is literal. Just about every president in modern American history of breaking the law for delaying some appropriation based on Congress. Where were the calls for Obama's impeachment?

The answer is they didn't exist, of course, because he was Obama. And Obama's a Democrat, and Democrats are a protected class. Now, what's even more fascinating about this. So you have the facts to debate your clueless liberal friends. Your first question should be, so you agree that the GAO saying the president broke the law means he actually broke the law and should be impeached. Your liberal friends, because they're not that bright. They're typically, you know, you know, liberals don't really know anything. I mean, I'm sorry, but it's just true.

I've debated them on TV and they they're either clueless or liars. Most of the time, your second question should be, well, why was an Obama impeached? Did you call for Obama's impeachment for the same GAO charges about a prisoner swap? Uh, no, no, no. We didn't call from, well, why didn't you, you're claiming you have principles right now. And that the GAO is the, the final arbiter of the law, which is ridiculous. They're not the department of justice. They're making this, I'm not even a constitutional law. If challenged, it would be thrown out tomorrow. The Impoundment Act.

So, why didn't you call for Obama to be impeached? The answer's obvious, because I'm a liberal and I have no principles at all. That's why. So you're a liar, basically. How do you reconcile that? Can you reconcile that? Of course you can. Again, you're a liberal. You look in the mirror and you make things up every day and you're proud of yourself.

Even worse, folks, making saw that of course you can again you're a liberal you look in the mirror and you make things up every day and you're proud of yourself yeah even worse folks making this gao charge that trump broke the law even more ridiculous the congressional deadline joe pay attention here because the dates matter again liberals have a tough time with facts and data the congressional deadline for allocating the money for the for the ukrainian military aid they allege was held up now in violation of the law was September 30th. Now, if you're a rational person like the conservatives, libertarians, insane Democrats that listen to my show, you may say, well, clearly, if the congressional deadline was September 30th, Joe, and the GAO is suggesting the Trump administration broke the law by delaying the aid, that the aid had to be delayed after the deadline on September 30th. Right.

Mm hmm. Mm hmm. That's just if you're interested in this whole reason, rationality, facts and data thing, which I understand many liberals are. So what was the date the Ukrainian military aid was actually delivered? Clearly, it had to be December or October, right? September 12th. Okay. Visuals for the libs watching.

Not one plus two, September 12th. If it was even one plus two, it would be September 3rd, but it's not. It's September 12th. Now do you understand this gao hit was a political hack job conveniently joe totally coincidentally released on the day the impeachment articles are delivered to the senate joe stop yeah i'm glad you had your tin foil cap day it's just a conspiracy theory that that was a political hit yeah this is based on

a real criminal violation that's right by. By the way, again, every president in modern history has been accused of. Everybody ignores it because it's an unconstitutional law. And the deadline for the aid to be delivered was September 30th, yet it was delivered on September 12th. Makes total sense. You guys got this really buttoned up. The jury is in. Nice job, Libs.

You really nailed it this time. Thank you. Oh, my gosh. It only gets dumber from here paula suggested we keep this video in a file because we use it so often so just to be clear liberals that have no principles no spines nothing at all they just sincerely hate you as conservatives and the president remember what i always say what i always say, what I always say. This is axiomatic. Conservatives believe liberals are people with bad ideas. Liberals believe you conservatives are bad people with ideas. Don't ever forget that. In other words,

liberals don't care about your ideas. They're not interested in your ideas because your ideas are based on facts and data. Here's why tax cuts work. Here's why tax hikes don't. Here's why patient-centered healthcare works. Here's why government-run healthcare. Do you understand they're not interested? I'm not kidding. The liberal, they're not interested.

They are, they hate you. Whatever you stand for, they stand for the opposite. They don't have any principles. I'm sorry to break this to you. I'm not talking about all Democrats. I'm talking about the far left. They can't stand you. They will ruthlessly attack you. They don't care. You're never debating them. You're debating them only for the same people listening to your debate with the insane liberals who will be convinced that you have the facts and data and they don't, and they're just angry. You're debating for the third person listening. I'm not going to tell the story I

always tell, but it's important. I have a lot of experience with this. People came up to me all the time. Hey, man, I heard you debating that liberal over there. That guy seemed clearly crazy. That's because they are. So trying again to show you how liberals have zero principles at all. They didn't care when Obama was accused of breaking the law. So Joe, yes, again, throwing this past you here,

make sure we're all in the same sheet of music and I'm not crazy. Liberals are suggesting here by Trump delaying military aid, delaying it, not even past the deadline, but just delaying it to review what they were going to do with it, make sure we weren't giving it to a corrupt regime. They're suggesting the delay in aid alone, not past the deadline, is clearly a violation of the law worthy of impeachment.

Yeah. No. Is everybody in the audience clear? Let me take a show of hands. Paula, are you clear on that? Hands up. Raise a hand. Okay. Paula's hand is up. Joe's up. Is your hand hands. Paula, are you clear on that? Hands up. Raise a hand. Okay, Paula's hand is up.

Joe's up. Is your hand up? Yes, it is. Joe's hand is up. Everybody agrees that the delay of aid alone, according to the anti-Trump brigade, is worthy of impeachment. The delay of any foreign aid. Now, some of you 0001%ers already are putting it together. Really? Any delay in aid allocated is impeachable. Let's check out this little blast from the past from our buddy Joey B.

And I'm not talking about Joey Bagadona. Check this out. And I had gotten a commitment from Poroshenko and from Yatsenyuk that they would take action against the state prosecutor, and they didn't. So they said they had, they were walking out to the press conference and said, no, I said, I'm not going to, we're not going to give you the billion dollars. They said, you have no authority. You're not the president. The president said, I said, call him. I said, I'm telling you, you're not getting the billion dollars. I said, you're not getting the billion. I'm going to be leaving here. I think it was, what, six hours?

I said, I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor's not fired, you're not getting the money. Oh, son of a bitch. Got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid. Yeah. Maybe we should refer to this as the principles check portion of the show. So, Libs, because you're frauds, I don't expect an answer.

Total, complete phonies and frauds with zero principles at all. I expected that delay of aid on tape by Joe Biden, who was obviously Barack Obama's vice president, who Biden says Obama's in on it. Did you hear the clip? Oh, yeah. Hey, call him. Call him.

He's in on it. Call him. Call him. He's in on it. Call him. Call Obama. They delayed military aid until the prosecutor in Ukraine. Who is investigating Joe Biden's company, Joe Biden's son's company where he works, Burisma in Ukraine. Biden's demanding that prosecutor investigating the company his son works for be fired or we're not giving you aid.

And where are the Democrats in the media did nothing wrong crickets crickets crickets matter of fact i read a snippet we don't have it here but just in the interest of time the new york times editorial board's interviewing candidates for their endorsement on the democrat side yeah they're interviewing biden and i'm not kidding. Here's how they set up the Ukraine question. They're like, we know you did nothing wrong in Ukraine, but what do you think about your son getting hired? They've already made the decision. The same outlets reporting that President Trump, he may be guilty of a crime for withholding aid, are the same ones who preemptively cleared Joe Biden from doing anything wrong. Do you not get the disconnect?

Delay aid for Trump. Impeach him. Obama accused of delaying aid to Ukraine with Biden and of reallocating funds for the disastrous Bergdahl swap. Give them the Medal of Honor, man. They deserve it.

Do you not see the disconnect? The pieces don't Yeah. This is like Legos Do you not see like the disconnect? The pieces don't. Yeah. This is like Legos for idiots. Like none of the pieces actually fit. You're like, it's like square holes and round pegs. Good luck. Or square pegs and round hole.

Even worse. Folks. Again. even worse folks again your liberal friends have zero principles at all i'm sorry none withhold aid man impeach that guy yeah but biden's on tape talking about withholding it doesn't matter elect aid. Doesn't matter. Elect him president. Doesn't matter. Idiots. I swear. You know, they have like the lug alarm and Planet Fitness. My wife just heard about this. We need an idiot alarm on the phone.

Idiot alarm. I mean, really, the stupidity is endless with these people. And liberals continue to fall for it. All right. Listen, I got to get to Lev P right um listen i gotta get to lev barnes next before i get to my what are they really hiding section in russia we've done the what are they really hiding in ukraine and what are they really hiding with mike flynn this is gonna be the uh capstone project to that before we get that i want to get to lev barnes uh.

So before we get to that section, I just want to address this Lev Parnas, who is rapidly becoming the Michael Avenatti of Michael Cohen's. You know the media when they start fawning over another person who is shredding Donald Trump. You know the media has barely done any fact-checking on the guy if there's any credibility at all.

Remember Michael Avenatti, Joe, creepy porn lawyer? They loved Avenatti until he was charged with a crime, and then all of a sudden they're all like, well, we didn't take Avenatti seriously. Really? You had him on your show. had him like guest hosting the view or whatever and then we had michael cohen who they hated because he was trump's lawyer and then he came out and said some things against trump some most of which didn't even make any sense and then they love michael cohen yeah well you got to fill in that box so now we got this guy lev parnas who's

a ukrainian individual who's claiming he has this intimate knowledge of this Ukrainian quid pro quo that literally nobody on the Ukrainian side of significance says happened. Again, this is mysteriously a bank robbery without a bank being robbed. In other words, these people keep coming forward and alleging there was this quid pro quo. Trump delayed military aid and demanded investigations of the Bidens in exchange for that military aid. Nobody is alleging this but the liberals. Nobody is a witness to this. There is no firsthand account of this at all. And no Ukrainians have come forward and suggested that this actually happened. Folks, wouldn't that be kind of important for an actual Ukrainian to

come forward and say, yes, we were victims of this. We asked for the military aid promised to us by Congress and allocated. We didn't get it. And the president said, you're not going to get it until you produce an investigation on Biden. Where are the victims? The answer is they're nowhere. Watch this hysterical cut. This is from the there's no victims file on this impeachment. None.

This is the Ukraine. This is greatraine this is great this is great because it's cnn too this is cnn they think they've got this score of an interview right they get the ukraine i shouldn't laugh my own this is funny though the ukrainian minister of foreign affairs on and they're like hey this guy lev parniss this ukrainian comes forward says he has intimate knowledge he was the one who passed the quid pro quo deal to the Ukrainians. Parnas is saying, I told these Ukrainians no money without Hunter Biden investigations. So they get the minister of foreign affairs on and the minister of foreign affairs,

they think he's going to like, he's going to come forward and he's going to he's going to burst the bubble. Yeah. So how this thing totally face plants on CNN. This is great. burst the bubble. Yeah. Listen to how this thing totally face plants on CNN. This is great. Lev Parnas, a crony of Rudy Giuliani, who is the president's personal lawyer, has now spoken out, as you know, and he has said several things, mostly that he did carry a very explicit message from the president via Rudy Giuliani that there would need to be a quid pro quo if Ukraine was going to continue getting any kind of assistance. And furthermore, he has now said that he has spoken to key officials within President Zelensky's circle. Since you are one of those, and you were when this happened, did you get that message from Lev Parnas?

It's all over Ukrainian media as well today and yesterday. And strangely enough, my name was not mentioned, although I'm minister of foreign affairs. And frankly, I never spoke with this individual. And again, frankly, I don't I don't trust any word he is now saying. any word he is now saying. The assistance which he is referring to was reviewed each and every year, annually at least twice, and half a year at the end of the year.

So we knew that this assistance is to be reviewed sometimes. It would be cut because of some political understanding of what is to be done in Ukraine, sometimes being erased, which is now we're observing. It's the greatest interview of all time. Come on, that's a double at least.

You got to cruise the double, Motley. That's a minimum of a double, Motley. There's a three. Christiane Armand-Pour. Is that a triple? Yeah, that was pretty good, brother. It was on the edge. I'll give you that.

It could be a triple, Motley. You're right. It could be triple. I'm always a little conservative with the Motleys. Sometimes Joe gets a little trigger happy with the Motleys but that may have been a triple i'd maybe a 2.5 half a mutley two and a half that's hysterical christiana i'm on pause and i love that if you go back and rewind that you'll see in the quarter it says cnn exclusive like we got them now yeah the ministry of foreign affairs gonna come out and say yes trump threatened us with this

money if we didn't produce an investigation on a biden what does going to come out and say, yes, Trump threatened us with this money. If we didn't produce an investigation on a Biden, what does the guy come on and say? He goes, listen, I'm really tight with Zelensky, the president who was supposedly threatened with this military aid. We don't remember any of this. Matter of fact, I don't trust a word coming out of that dude's mouth. And even worse for the trifecta of total face plant, total face plant. He says at the end, and by the way,

this military aid is reviewed twice a year anyway. Like this was nothing unusual. You could not have a trifecta of stupid better than that. Not for the Ukrainian, for CNN, who really thought, we got a hook here, man. We got a news hook, man, big time. Oh, you got a news hook. Just not the one you thought you had.

So Pardis, who's alleging he gave this message to the Ukrainians, can't find a Ukrainian who actually received the message he said he delivered. Nobody, no Ukraine. Matter of fact, the only Ukrainians they could find are saying, we never heard of this message. That's not what happened. I don't trust this guy. Oh, and by the way, the Ukrainian military age reviewed twice a year anyway.

Exclusive. CNN exclusive. Yeah. It doesn't get any better than that. You know what? You're right. That may have been a triple. I'm sorry.

I'm definitely underselling that. Yeah. It's just that even Paula was laughing. Paula's usually busy doing techie stuff back there, putting stuff flying across the sky. I don't even know what she does, but she was even laughing at that one. When Paula's laughing, I know it's good. Now, it gets even worse for CNN.

This is noted Russian collusion hoaxer from the New York Times, Maggie Haberman, one of the primary Russian collusion hoaxers at the New York Times, Maggie Haberman, one of the primary Russian collusion hoaxers at the New York Times. Even she's on CNN. I'm telling you, like tier one level collusion hoaxer. Even she's on CNN like, are you really sure we should be putting a lot of stock in Parnas?

Like, didn't we try this before with the creepy porn lawyer and Cohen before their credibility exploded? I think maybe we should hold it. This is a collusion hoaxer telling everyone, T.O., baby, full stop. We may want to reevaluate this guy because nothing he's saying is actually panning out. Check this out. Hilarious. What Parnas was saying, we cut out the first part. He was actually saying he should be a Republican witness. Republicans should want to talk to me because I can tell them. But they do, but not for the reasons he thinks. There are

some Republicans who actually are talking privately about the idea that maybe he wouldn't be the worst witness for us to call because we could try to hit into his credibility. And again, just for the reasons that we just said, there are concerns that he would not be able to hold up. I mean, one of the hallmarks of the Trump era is that anybody who is oppositional to Trump gets instant credibility. We have seen it over and over again. Michael Avenatti, Cohen at various points, even when he was admitting to lying to Congress at some point after he had pleaded guilty to other charges. It's important to just assess these facts on their own.

And Parnas knows what he's doing. He knows that it's very compelling to go on TV and say, I'm here. Come take me. And he's clearly hoping that's going to help him in his criminal case. I don't know that it will. But again, I think that if he got called as a witness, it might not go the way he's describing it. That's all.

Oh, my gosh a moment of honest journalism from maggie haberman who is like the voice of reason on cnn this is crazy how do you know you've jumped the shark seriously when the russian collusion hoaxer crowd is even coming out going maybe we should kind of rewind the tape a little bit as on this cat it's really not panning out i'm just i'm not saying i'm just saying now it gets worse for parniss we tape a little bit is on this cat. It's really not panning out. I'm just, I'm not saying, I'm just saying. Now it gets worse for Parnas. We covered a little bit of Parnas yesterday who says he delivered that message to his Sir Hayes,

Sir Fear, forgive me if I'm saying the name wrong, an aid to the Ukrainian president, separate from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs guy, by the way. And even Sir Hayes like, I didn't get this. I don't know what this guy's talking about. I didn't get the message. The daily caller is a great piece again,

up in the show notes, please subscribe to my show notes, Bongino.com slash newsletter. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will send you these articles. So you don't have to call the internet for them. You can always, of course,

go to Bongino report.com, our alternative to the drudge report, where we have these articles up to chuck ross daily caller lev parniss's comments to the new york times conflict with the cnn report about a secret mission for trump now joe i bet you didn't realize it but your conspiracy theory tinfoil cap here's another one this guy sounds like he can use a tinfoil cap himself so parniss who is alleged he told multiple people about this Ukrainian deal multiple people who have no idea what he's talking about by the way just gonna throw that in there

has also said that President Trump sent him on a secret mission sounds crazy what does Lev he's like 008 or something this guy so Pardis was on a secret mission wow really that's funny because in a conflicting report he never even met the president so it's like well who's that you know I haven't watched James Bond in a while I used to love it growing up Roger Moore was my favorite I listen don't at me on Twitter I get it I know Sean Connery it's like considered like the bible that Sean Connery is the best. I liked Roger Moore. Call me crazy. I loved it.

I liked, I thought Roger Moore was the best. I'm just throwing that out there. I know I'll get a million emails, but that's okay. But Parnas clearly thought he was 008 or whatevs. So here's a piece from, here's a snippet from the Chuck Ross piece, which talks about Parnas having more credibility issues with his secret 008 meeting with the president. Quote, Parnas's comments to the New York Times on Wednesday appear to conflict with what

CNN reported about the Soviet born businessman back in November. Lev Parnas told the New York Times that he did not speak directly with President Trump about his Ukraine related efforts. Instead, Parnas worked with Rudy Giuliani. Well, that's fascinating, Joe, because CNN reported on November 16th that associates of Parnas said that he claimed he spoke privately with Trump in late 2018 about Ukraine

and that the president tasked him with a secret mission. Go get the... What were the stones from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom? Go get the stones. Go get the stones from there. I loved Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. I can't remember. What was it?

Mola Ram. Mola Ram. Go get the stones from Mola Ram. Lev Parnas got the mission. Stones, Mola Ram, you go get them. And release all the kids at the end. Remember that? And the kids come, ah!

There you go. Mola Ram. Go get M and get released all the kids at the end. Remember that? And the kids, there you go. Mola Ram. Go get Mola Ram. Unfortunately, he didn't meet with Indiana Jones, Mola Ram or President Trump. It appears Parnas is conflicting stories. Both can't make sense. Either the president sent you on a secret mission or you never met the president and you lied. Please tell me what option C is.

Okay, there isn't. They make it so easy, folks. I know you liberals out there too. I get it. Libs will be like, why do you got a character assassinating? I don't know this guy. I'm not character assassinating partners. I've never met this cat in my life.

I'm simply suggesting to you that if you've never met this cat in my life. I'm simply suggesting to you that if you're going to impeach the president based on his charge, that he was negotiating a deal with the Ukrainians, that someone on the Ukrainian side should be able to say there was a deal with the Ukrainians. No, is that, is that not a fair question? Where am I going wrong? Where is your victim is what I'm suggesting you're alleging a crime you're going to throw the country into a high crime you're going to throw the country into turmoil over and impeach

a duly elected president with no victim and no evidence I guess so because again you don't really have any principles so it doesn't really matter. All right, let's start this section here because this is important.

This whole week, we've had the banner headline, ladies and gentlemen, all of the Trump conspiracy theories directed at him and the attacks, they're all related. It's all the same people. They all know each other. They're all part of the swamp. And as I said yesterday, that's nothing new. We know there's a swamp that hates Trump. What's new is I've been documenting how they not only all know each other, but they all need each other. Need each other for what? what well once they're all exposed nobody wants the other guy who knows about the robbed bank or the spying conspiracy theory or whatever ratting on them

so they all need each other to keep quiet and shut the up they all know each other they're all interconnected through financial networks, jobs, NGOs. I've documented it exclusively using their own web links. You don't need to take my word for it. Just go to the web resources I've provided for you. This section is going to be important. We covered Flynn. We covered Ukraine. We covered Spygate. This is what the Democrats are really hiding in Russia and how all of these people are connected. We will document this again using solid sources, some of them down the middle, some of them right-leaning sources, but the information is absolutely true. Let's start.

We're going to call this portion of the show, What Are the Democrats Really Hiding in Russia? The Skolkovo Edition. You're like, man, we haven't heard about Skolkovo in a while. Well, you'll want to hear about it now because a lot of this stuff I think is going to come out if the Republicans get to call witnesses in the trial so we can see the interconnected web of corruption. So what is Skolkovo and how does this relate to what the Democrats are really hiding in Russia? Let's go to the great John Solomon's article in The Hill. By the way, John just launched justthenews.com. John Solomon, I highly, highly recommend you check it out. An actual news site, justthenews.com.

Good job by John Solomon. But here's an older article from The Hill by the great John Solomon, who's done some tremendous work on this. This will be in the show notes again today, Bongino.com slash newsletter. If you want to sign up and read it, it is worth your time. John Solomon, the case for Russia collusion against the Democrats.

Now, we've always known that if the Democrat story is true, that Christopher Steele was using Russian sources while being paid by Hillary, then if the Democrat story is true, that is tautologically colluding with the Russians. Is it not? Of course it is, unless you're a media moron or a liberal who, again, is immune to facts. Or the Democrats lied, never had Russian sources to begin with, and made up the whole story against

Donald Trump. You can't really have that both ways, but whatever. Liberals don't really do facts, so it doesn't really matter. Right. How does this relate to Skolkovo? What was Skolkovo? Skolkovo was a Russian technology project where the Russians tried to emulate or replicate, probably a more precise term, Silicon Valley. They wanted a Russian Silicon Valley where they had a technology corridor where they could profit from. That's what the Skolkovo project was. Now, what it really was is going to come up in a minute. Stay tuned. Don't go anywhere for this segment. This is going to get juicy. But Skolkovo was sold to us joe as a technology project for this big russian market this will be so cool all these companies wanted to jump in um and who promoted this skolkovo project by the way which would benefit the russians not us who was promoting

this thing relentlessly let's go back to the Solomon piece, because this is crazy how this happens. You know, Trump was allegedly colluding with the Russians. Not, oh, Hillary Clinton. Come on. Quote, John Solomon. I know. Crazy time, Joe. As Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton worked with Russian leaders, including Foreign Minister Lavrov and then President Medvedev, Russian President Medvedev,

to create U.S. technology partnerships with Moscow's version of Silicon Valley, a sprawling high-tech campus known as Skolkovo. Skolkovo. Clinton's hand... It sounds like Castle Grayskull from He-Man. Clinton's handprint was everywhere on the 2009-10 project, the tip of the diplomatic spear

to reboot U.S.-Russia relations after years of hostility prompted by Putin's actions in Georgia. A donor to the Clinton Foundation. This is crazy. A donor to the Clinton Foundation. Russian oligarch Viktor Vekselberg led the Russian side of the Skolkovo effort. And several American donors to Clinton's charity also got involved whoa this is nuts clinton's state department facilitated u.s companies working with the russian project

and she personally invited medvedev to visit silicon valley that's just crazy so this russian technology project remember we're not supposed to be colluding with the Russians, Joe. Remember, Trump did that. That's why they want to impeach. Remember, Nancy Pelosi confused her hoaxes the other day? That's right. Now they're impeaching him for Russia.

I thought it was Ukraine. They don't even know what it is anymore. Crazy. Debunk conspiracy theory. But as you know, as Tucker Carlson says often again, what the Democrats accuse you of is what they're really doing themselves. So it appears that there's this Russian technology project called Skokovol, which was up to something

else, by the way. It wasn't really technology, by the way, that Hillary Clinton seemed to really love. And these companies that donate to the Clinton Foundation are jumping into the Skokovol Foundation project on the advice of Hillary Clinton, and that one of the biggest supporters of the project, intimately involved, a guy by the name of Victor Vexelberg, this guy has a relationship to the Clintons too? That's just insane. So not only did Hillary really like Skolkovo, the the project and not only did Skolkovo really like

hills but they really like Bill Clinton too let's go to part two of John Solomon's hill piece which is pretty damning for old Billy boy so regarding the Skolkovo project the collaboration occurred at the exact same time Bill Clinton this is the Hillary Skolkovo project, the collaboration occurred at the exact same time Bill Clinton. This is the Hillary Skolkovo collaboration. Joe, this is all a coincidence, too, by the way. Happened at the exact same time Bill Clinton made his now infamous trip to Russia to pick up a jaw-dropping $500,000 check for a single speech. The exact same time Hillary's promoting the Skolkovo Russia project. No relation, folks.

Don't you worry. It goes on. The former president's trip secretly raised eyebrows inside his wife's State Department internal email show. I'm sure we made those up, too. That's because Bill Clinton asked permission to meet with, this is just insane, Viktor Vekselberg, the head of Skolkovo, and Arkady Dvorakovich, a senior Russian official at Rosatom. Rosatom? You mean the Russian nuclear giant seeking State Department permission to buy Uranium One, a Canadian company with massive U.S. uranium reserves?

Unbelievable. Duh. Again, media people, nothing. Don't worry. Ignore all of this. It's all a coincidence. No worries. So just to rewind the tape here,

what are they really hiding in Russia, the Democrats? Hillary's running the State Department as Secretary of State. Her husband's overseas collecting a 500K check for one speech. On the speech visit, he requests to meet with Vekselberg, who's running the Skolkovo project, and Dvorakovich, who's running a company that's involved in the Uranium One deal, where we sold our uranium assets to Russian interests. Crazy time. All the while, while donors to the Skolkovo project are also donating to the Clinton Foundation, too. And Clinton is, in turn, pushing the Skolkovo project. You may say, okay, I still don't get it.

So Clinton is benefiting from companies. The Clinton Foundation is benefiting from companies involved with Skolkovo. Bill Clinton is personally benefiting from the trip over there and meeting with the guy running Skolkovo while the State Department's seeking permission for all these deals with Rosatom and Uranium One, and his wife is the State Department head. Sounds a little bit like shady Washington Swamp stuff.

But does it get worse? Oh, yes, it does, or I wouldn't talk about it on the Dan Bongino Show, as you see in these handy-dandy icons in the back. Yeah. What was the Skolkovo project really up to? Well, don't ask me. Let's just ask U.S. Army Intel.

U.S. Army Army Intel that sounds really bad yeah it is let's go to this Daily Caller piece by Diana West where she covers the title of the piece by the way

it'll be in the show notes today worth reviewing Hillary's hypersonic missile gap what the hell what does that have to do with Skolkovo well if you go down

if you go down to the body of the piece we'll find out exactly what that has to do with skulkovo you know hypersonic missiles the things that can kill us because we don't have a missile defense system for it they go at multiple times the speed of sound yeah those missiles right oh yeah so diana yeah those ones just want to clear that up, Joe. Quote Diana West Peace. Not even this plain shocking language from the army in circa 2012. She hears she goes into the language, can alter people's view of this. This is crazy. Skolkovo, this is from the army, folks. Skolkovo is an ambitious enterprise aiming to promote technology transfer generally by inbound direct investment and occasionally through selected acquisitions.

As such, Skolkovo is arguably an overt alternative to clandestine industrial espionage, with the additional distinction that it can achieve such a transfer on a much larger scale and more efficiently. Just to be clear, there is widespread belief amongst intelligence professionals, as reported by Diana West, that the Skolkovo project had nothing to do with technology for economic purposes and everything to do with technology, to steal it, to use it, to create things like hypersonic missiles, to attack the United States. Good job, Hills. Way to promote, as the Secretary of State State the best interests of the U.S.

Very well done. And of course, by very well done, I mean absolutely horrible. So just to rewind before I put the capstone on the capstone, because there's more, I just want to rewind the tape first. Hills promotes Skolkovo. Skolkovo is believed to be an industrial espionage project by the Russians to steal military technology we can use for dual applications. The head of the Skolkovo project is all pally with the Clintons. Clintons wants a visit with him when he goes over there

and he's getting 500K from a bank associated with the Uranium One deal where Clinton says he wants to meet with the guy who's involved with the company acquiring uranium one. Don't worry. Nothing to see here. And the companies involved with Skolkovo are donating to the Clinton foundation too. All the conspiracy theory.

No worries. Now you may say, okay, we got uranium one. We got Clinton, Russia, what they're hiding. How does this transfer into the whole spy gate thing

as i told you ladies and gentlemen all of this stuff is related i'll get to that i'm gonna take one final break for a sponsor but i will get to that one the capstone on the capstone finally today's show brought to you by draft kingsKings.

Okay. Tying this bad boy up for you. How again, all these people know each other. It's all one big anti-Trump scandal. They not only all know each other, but they all need each other to pipe down. Don't talk about Skolkovo. Why? The army did. The army seemed concerned about Skolkovo. No, no, we can't say that would reflect poorly on the Clintons and their relationships with the Skolkovo people and the Clinton foundation.

Shh, quiet down. So who else supported the Skolkovo people and the Clinton Foundation. Shh, quiet down. So who else supported the Skolkovo project and was associated with it that the army was very concerned about after the Clintons loved this thing? Well, let's go to this Reuters article. This is really fascinating here. Police search offices of Russian prime minister's pet project.

What were they talking about? Oh, nothing here, just Skolkovo, folks. From the Reuters piece. Not only was Skolkovo a problem here, apparently it was even a problem in Russia. Don't talk about Skolkovo. Quote, Reuters, federal investigators said the search of the foundation's central Moscow offices

were part of an investigation into embezzlement, a suspected embezzlement of state funds at skolkovo which is headed by victor vexelberg one of russia's richest men this is that pay attention pay attention where it gets even better deputy prime minister vladislav surkov surkov some of you are getting it. A former Kremlin aide backed the Skolkovo Foundation's leadership and condemned what he said were efforts to politicize the investigation. So now we know about Vekselberg, Clinton pal, who was involved with Skolkovo. Clinton wanted to meet with him, send an email, I need to meet with this guy. While I meet with the Iranian one guy too,

and I collect my $500,000 check. Joe, same guy. Same guy. For those of you who watched yesterday's show. You do it better than i do which is a shame yes it is and we know was not only supported by vexelberg was also supported by this guy serkoff who was a putin aide vladislav serkoff serkoff where have we heard that yeah yeah? Yeah, yeah. This is really crazy talk now. So Christopher Steele, of course, who went and met with the State Department, the Spygate dossier alleged author, gave an interview to the State Department

talking about his sources, and the woman who interviewed with him, Kathleen Kavalec from the State Department, took notes, and here are the notes of what Steele told the State Department about what is who is, quote, sources were. So we circled one, Trebnikov, who was a Russian intel guy. Wait, wait, wait. Steele says he was colluding with a Russian intel guy. Apparently told Kavalec that. But look at the name underneath that.

If you can make that out of the handwriting, if you want to see the visuals, YouTube.com slash Bongino. Isn't this crazy, Joe?erkhoff yeah yeah that's isn't that bizarre how'd that get there nuts i i don't know i have no idea but no idea joe put it in he edited the show deceptively deceptive editing folks those are kathleen kavec from the u.s state department that hillary clinton used to run her own notes in october of 2016 as she's interviewing the guy who made who allegedly made up the dossier because i don't believe steel was the only one involved in the steel dossier as you well know so the guy who creates the document used to spy on trump is suggesting one of his sources is Vladislav

Surkov, the same guy involved with the Skolkovo project, even under investigation in Russia? The Skolkovo project Hillary Clinton promoted that the army thinks is an intel project to steal our intel to create weapons to kill us with. I'm just saying

Kavalec's notes, not mine. Again, thankfully Joe had his tinfoil cap. He was kind enough to fashion for us today. Thank you. Because it's all a big conspiracy theory, folks. It's all made up. It's right-wing conspiracy theories. Those right-wingers, they're crazy.

So, of course, there are alternative explanations here because we do facts here, Joe. Maybe Steele was lying about his sources, but do you see how that creates an alternate problem for the Democrats? So let's go with option one. Steele isn't lying. So one of your sources is a guy involved with a corrupt project in Russia, allegedly used to steal our military technology to kill us. By the way, a project supported by Hillary Clinton who was paying Christopher Steele. We would call that a motive. Maybe we can use that guy's info to make Trump go

away so he doesn't find out about what we did in Skolkovo. No, no, that would only be a motive in a Barney Miller episode, right? Because there are no investigative journalists out there, of course, on the left side of the spectrum. So that option sounds pretty bad, right, Joe? Holy crap. Zirkov was your source? The same guy involved with Skolkovo? Pretty bad.

The Hillary Clinton thing? That's bad. You may say, well, let's give him an out Steele was a liar Steele was lying this is other people Steele's lying he was just puffing his chest

creates kind of a bigger problem doesn't it what's the problem obviously the Democrats have told us for two years trump was colluding with the russians based on this impeccable source christopher steel who had the best sources in russia imaginable so now you're saying the whole thing was made up okay so alternative one hillary was involved with a skulkovo project and russian espionage and their source to take down trump was the same guy involved with the project circle wow that's bad or option two you fabricated an

entire dossier based on a source you knew was crap and spied on the president's campaign because of it i'm not messing with you joe when i tell you i seriously don't know which one of those options is more damaging i don't i'm not kidding yeah options is more damaging. I don't. I'm not kidding. It's like one sucks and one really sucks. Well, which one? I don't know because they both really suck. I have no idea. The suck factor is high on both of them.

No idea which one sucks worse. None. I'm not kidding. So you spied on a presidential campaign based on a lie you knew was a lie because you knew your source was lying about russian sources or you used the russian source involved with a russian espionage project hillary clinton was intimately involved with crazy talk man it's all a big conspiracy idiots again please to roswell rachel and all the leftist nut jobs out there debunk anything i just told you did steel not say serkoff was one of his sources

let me even be more precise did kavalec not write down that steel indicated precision matters serkoff was when did he not do you think i made that up has anyone disputed those notes do you deny surkov was involved with skolkovo that was under investigation even in russia do you deny that the army had suspicions about what skolkovo was up to do you deny bill clinton collected a five hundred thousand dollar check from a bank involved in russia when he wanted to meet with the skolkovo head those emails't exist? You're suggesting that's a lie? Do you deny Hillary was promoting Skolkovo and suggesting companies joined Skolkovo despite the fact that

those companies were donating to the Clinton Foundation and there were severe concerns about Skolkovo? Please tell me what part of that is false. We'll wait. Of course we can't. You'll never all right oh all right i just gotta be the last story of the week but i gotta get to this some of you wondering like why didn't you mention comey yet i was it's just it's jim comey and the guys

i don't know who's more corrupt him or brennan it's kind of like i don't know which story's worse than that last segment i don't know who's more corrupt, him or Brennan. It's kind of like, I don't know which story's worse than that last segment. I don't know who's more corrupt, Comey or Brennan, seriously. But Comey, you'd see the story at the Washington Examiner. Jim Comey is apparently under investigation again for a potentially devastating leak of what was thought to be Russian intel. I just want to give you the quick backstory on this,

but I want to have Trey Gowdy set it up first. This was Trey Gowdy on, I believe, Martha McCallum on Fox News. In a nutshell, Comey's under investigation again by the Department of Justice for allegedly leaking Russian intel to a media outlet. Gowdy, as you can see by this Washington Examiner headline by Dan Chaitland, apparently has some inside info on this. He was on Martha McCallum last night, kind of summing it up. I'll explain to you what's really going on in a nutshell. So, you know, check this out. This story that's just sort of coming out from the New York Times that that there's another investigation into Jim Comey leaking and that it's coming from the DOJ. The New York Times says essentially this is a leak that happened

a long time ago. Usually those are followed up on right away. And they suggest that there could be some political motivation in this investigation. Any thoughts on that, Trey? You know, Martha, I am not a fan of Jim Comey, but I am a fan of being fair. And I know the fact pattern that is referenced in this story. And Jim Comey was asked behind closed doors in a classified setting to address it. And he would not do it. His response was it was so highly classified. He wasn't even going to tell people that were cleared to hear it in a classified setting. So let the record be clear, I'm not a fan of Jim Comey's, but I am a fan of being fair to people.

And I'm not going to indict him or convict him based on New York Times reporting. And my experience with him on this very fact pattern, the subject of the article, he would not address it even in a setting where he could do so. And it would have benefited him to do so. And he still did not do it. OK, folks, what's really going on here? Let me distill this down. What they're talking about, the alleged leak by Comey of this Russian intel to the New York Times, which, by the way, oddly was reported by the New York Times. It's just like, why are you reporting? You should be

able to know if they leaked it to you or not, right? I mean, it's pretty simple. Here's the problem. The Russian intel he leaked is believed to be a fake. You remember the infamous July 5th press conference Jim Comey gave where he went out there and laid out Hillary Clinton's crimes. And at the end said, well, no reasonable process. Remember, everybody remembers that, right? Yeah. Well, the consensus is that Comey gave that press conference because he got suckered because he's not that smart. Or he didn't want to be that smart.

In other words, he was winking and nodding. By a piece of fake Russian intel. and nodding by a piece of fake Russian Intel. It was supposedly a Russian intercept of emails between Democrats, influential Democrats about Loretta Lynch. Follow me. It's a little complicated, but I think you'll get it. These Democrat operatives in these emails that the Russians supposedly intercepted and Comey had were

emails involving Debbie Wasserman Schultz and others where supposedly they're like, hey, listen, don't worry. Hillary Clinton's going to be exonerated. Lynch is in on it. That's the gist of it. Comey's apparently reading this book with the Russians. God, we're in real trouble, Jim. The Democrats are colluding to make this thing go away. Here's the problem, ladies and gentlemen. It is believed by just about every intelligence professional to have been a fake. It was a fake. It wasn't real.

The Russian intel was not real. Emails never happened, according to a lot of the intel professionals. Or at least those emails they got. You get it? It was a fake. Yeah. So Comey, in an effort, I believe, to preemptively clear

Hillary Clinton, thinking this was going to get out later because the Russians had it. In other words, it would get out after Hillary. Remember, everybody thinks Hillary's going to be elected president. Follow me here. Curveballs. Jim Comey is a Hillary Clinton bootlicker. He thinks this Russian intel will get out after the election and tarnish the Clinton presidency. He thinks the Russians have these emails about the Democrats colluding

to make Hillary's email investigation go away. They don't have emails. It's a fake. So Comey gives the July 5th press conference, I believe, in an effort to clear the deck

on Hillary, get all the information out there, and put pressure on Lynch, but giving Lynch an out. In other words, by saying at the end, no reasonable prosecutor, which wasn't his job, by the way, he's an investigator, not a prosecutor anymore. He was working with the FBI, not the DOJ. No reasonable prosecutor would prosecute this case. He takes the pressure then off Loretta Lynch, who then comes out and says, I'm just going to follow Jim Comey's advice. We're dropping this. All right, I'm with you. Clears the deck for Hillary, who then comes out and says, I'm just going to follow Jim Comey's advice. We're dropping this. All right. With you.

Clears the deck for Hillary. Because then they can go back and say after she wins, hey, we put all the information out there. Look, I gave a 20-minute press conference. It's all out there. What's the problem? The reason he gave the presser was because he thought the information was going to come out in Russian emails that were fake. Comey now is believed to have allegedly leaked some of that fake Russian intel to the media people. It's the same intel he's telling Gowdy and his oversight committee when he was up there.

I am not talking about this, even though you're clear, because it's, quote, highly classified. It's BS, folks. Why did Jim Comey not want to talk about it to Gowdy? And Gowdy knows this, I'm sure. Because Comey at this point knows he got taken for a fool because he's really not that bright. And if he actually presented the fake Russian intel about the emails, someone would have said to him, Jim, did you actually check with the people

involved in the emails to see if these were legit? No, no, no. We just believe it. We just believed it outright. That's what's really going on behind the scenes. Comey got embarrassed. He tried to hide it

like he always does. Then there's a belief he may have leaked it. And I'm hearing a story out there that they may have given it to people up on the Hill too. The fake Russian intel. You may say, why why gowdy just said they couldn't get it this is what i'm hearing i'm just saying it's out there they wouldn't formally give it to them because then comey would have to take credit for getting

hosed but supposedly key people leaked it to people up on the hill to do what joe again according to the allegations in the media out there so then later on if these things surfaced in the new york times they could say hey we didn't give it must have come from capitol hill they had it too oh it's just out there it's how you may read it just put it out there all right it's been a really busy week thanks for everything folks really appreciate our listenership was just crazy this week we had a record banner week for viewers downloads it's been great please please i ask you to subscribe to our youtube channel youtube.com slash bongino youtube.com slash bongino we are almost at 400 000.
