You're going to love this company. All right, Joe, here we go brother here we go joe yes sir joe knows i've been excited
so oh my i'm sitting here listening and um kellyanne conway's husband george conway who's
only claimed to fame i think is being kellyanne conway's husband he had uh tweeted out yesterday
about cassidy hutch, former aide to Trump
chief of staff, Mark Meadows, who testified yesterday at the January 6th emergency hearing,
Joe, it was an emergency. We had to get this stuff out. I was sitting here with, I was on the air as
it was happening on my radio show and I'm watching and I can see it kind of in the closed captioning
and I'm hearing it during the breaks and I'm saying to myself, okay, what's the emergency? I don't really get it. Now, George Conway had tweeted out,
everyone will remember where they were when Cassidy Hutchinson testified yesterday. Yeah,
yeah. I remember it. I was sitting here in the office. And the reason I remember is because
the testimony, a lot of it didn't seem to comport with reality.
It was an emergency hearing. Had to get that out, fellas with reality. It was an emergency hearing.
Had to get that out, fellas.
Emergency hearing.
It was such an emergency.
Now, I was waiting for her to come out with some smoking gun, Joe,
that she had found a high-powered rifle in the White House
that Melania was planning to use at the Capitol or something.
I mean, really, I was waiting for some stunning bombshell.
And what did we get yesterday?
We got what appears to be, again, a bunch of fairy tales, including fairy tales about the Secret Service and other things.
Now, folks, listen, you know what I did in my prior line of work?
I want to just establish bona fides immediately.
The Secret Service has a number of different entities.
So if you're on the Presidential Protection Division, which is obviously a specific division
that protects the president, Presidential Protective Division in the Secret Service,
you may not know much about the vice president's detail. That may sound strange, but you may not.
I mean, you know how to do protection. Obviously, you're an agent. You're all trained to the basic standards. But I don't know much about what they
call NAVOBS, the Naval Observatory, where the vice president lives. I've never been there.
What do you mean you've never been there? You're a Secret Service agent. Why would I go there?
I've worked in the White House with the president. I kid you not, I know nothing about it.
I know people who work there. They've told me about it. Don't know it. So if there were to
be a story out there about an infiltration at the Naval Observatory,
I can give you kind of better commentary than the media people because I know how protection works.
But I can't give you intricate, detailed commentary about NAVOBS because I've never been there.
I've been outside.
I have a general idea of the overview.
You get my point?
The reason I say this is because I have very specific on top of specific information
about the transportation section of the Secret Service, otherwise known as TS, what we call it.
Why? Because I was there twice. I was an agent there and I was the whip, which is kind of a
quasi-supervisory position. You run the section, you do do the scheduling you assign people and you report to a gs14 supervisor but you run the section it's a like i said it's not an official supervisory
position but you're running the show it was the greatest honor of my time in the secret service
to be the whip and ts i'm not kidding it's a prestigious position i was honored to take it
it meant the world to me probably one of the great honors of my life. Sorry. I didn't mean it, but it's important we understand that. I was there for two years. I
know about the limos. I know how it works. Having said that, we're going to address a couple of
things that happened yesterday. Political playbook, as you know, I go to them for what left-leaning
lunatics are talking about. They put out this morning in their email, these are the stunning,
Joe, stunning revelations. I'm glad you included that, Guy,
in Hutchinson's testimony, Cassidy Hutchinson, aid to Mark Meadows, right?
Note the headline, January 6th panel may have found a smoking gun. Well, they may have found
something smoking, but it definitely wasn't a gun. It may have been a turd, but I'm not sure it was
a gun. So here's what they found smoking that trump knew some supporters on january 6th were
armed and didn't care okay that headline i'll go into the rest of it in a second but that that's so
ridiculous exaggerated absurd hyperbolic and stupid that i i don't even understand how even
the lunatics at political playbook liza and Eugene Daniels, dared to put that in there.
Trump knew they were armed and didn't care.
To assert such a ridiculous thing, you'd have to be in Trump's head
and you'd have to assume that what people are saying about Trump,
despite the fact that they're not under cross-examination, is 100% true.
So they note that in Hutchinson's recounting,
Trump was talking about the rally on the Ellipse.
He wanted it packed.
So they note that Hutchinson said
they were warned by the Secret Service
that some Trump supporters
were choosing to watch from a distance
because they didn't want to go through metal detectors
and have their weapons,
including ARs and handguns, confiscated.
The president was allegedly unmoved.
Quote, this is what Hutch what hutchinson said the president
she's recounting what she says trump said i don't effing care that they have weapons they're not
here to hurt me trump said according to hutchinson okay then political playbook notes if true that
means trump told the crowd to march to the capitol fight like hell, knowing some were armed. Holy Moses.
I'm going to play this audio.
I'm going to listen to you.
Now, I want you to be very,
I want you to listen very carefully to how this aid to Mark Meadows,
Trump's chief of staff,
frames this conversation
and how Politico leaps to the conclusion
that Trump knew they were armed.
It doesn't say that anywhere in here, by the way,
and that he wanted them to go to the Capitol
arm. The same guy who said march peacefully and patriotically. Listen to Cassidy Hutchinson
very carefully how this is couched in very careful legal terms and how Politico gives you this
ridiculous headline. Check this out. When we were in the offstage announced tent,
I was part of a conversation. I was in the vicinity of a conversation where I overheard the president say something to the effect of, you know, I don't effing care that they have weapons.
They're not here to hurt me.
Take the effing mags away.
Let my people in.
They can march the Capitol from here.
Let the people in.
Take the effing mags away.
Do you notice how she, did you guys catch it?
She says,
Oh,
I wasn't really part of the conversation,
but I was like there and I heard it.
And he said something,
Joe,
here's the key line.
And she notes,
Cassidy says,
Cassidy Hutchinson says,
he said something to the effect of,
yep.
To the effect of,
so did he say it or not?
Listen,
I'm not trying to be too cute by half here. Because to the effect of kind of sounds to me like a lawyer advised thing to say to make sure like you're not exactly quoting him and you don't exactly remember what happened.
So you're just saying the worst thing possible.
That's what that sounds like to me.
To the effect of.
To the effect of. Now, from my, again, 12 years of experience doing tell you for a fact, every single president and their staff wants events packed,
just like Trump wanted the Ellipse packed on January 6th. Every single president staffer
complains about the magnetometers. Listen to me. I get it. I'm not trying to be,
you know, pretend to be some objective guy.
I'm trying to be as objective as possible.
I support President Trump.
I have.
I understand that.
I get it that some people portray these comments as biased.
I understand that.
I'm telling you, take it or leave it, that what I'm telling you is 100% true.
I am not going to risk my credibility for anyone.
Every single president, every president and their staffers complain about the mags and the flow rate.
Every one of them.
Every one of them.
I was with President Obama when he went to at the Prudential Center, I think is where the Devils, the New Jersey Devils play.
He was doing an event for John Corzine when he was running for governor in New Jersey.
The staff complained about the magnetometers there too we don't have enough meanwhile the event was short we had a bunch of wasted magnetometers they always complain about the mags every single
president to leap to the conclusion that to the effect of because president trump was complaining about the flow
rate at the max which again every single president staff does all the time that trump wanted armed
people to go attack the capital is the single dumbest thing politico has ever put in its piece
but this is what you could expect from the fake news totally fake news.
That's not even the worst part.
Here's their takeaway number two.
Smoking.
Like I told you, something's smoking.
But it ain't a gun.
May not want to get up on that smoking object.
Don't get too close.
May not like the smoke coming off it.
Here's their takeaway number two at playbook
they're talking about this motorcade story
allegedly according to cassidy hutchinson president trump wanted to go to the capital uh in the
in the suv so i'll talk about that in a second too that's important and because the secret service
did not have the manpower and didn't have it secured, they didn't want to take them there. So Cassidy Hutchinson's
alleging that he said that I'm the effing president. Take me to the Capitol. Now I'll
play her testimony here in a second, but she's alleging also that she was told by Bobby Engel,
who I know well, and Tony Ornato, who I know well, work with them in the New York
field office, work with them repeatedly on the president's detail. I know these guys very well.
I've known him for decades. She's alleging that the president, President Trump, then grabbed the
steering wheel of the SUV, grabbed the steering wheel, Joe. So you'll take me to Capitol. I'll
drive there myself. The car car jack the secret service that
unbelievable here's cassidy hutchinson relaying the story she alleges she was told check this out
so once the president had gotten into the vehicle with bobby he thought that they were going up to
the capitol and when bobby had relayed to him we're not we don't have the assets to do it, it's not secure, we're going back to the West Wing.
The president had a very strong, very angry response to that.
Tony described him as being irate.
The president said something to the effect of, I'm the effing president. Take me up to the Capitol now. To which Bobby responded,
sir, we have to go back to the West Wing. The president reached up towards the front of the
vehicle to grab at the steering wheel. Mr. Engel grabbed his arm, said, sir, you need to take your
hand off the steering wheel. We're going back to the West Wing.
We're not going to the Capitol. Mr. Trump then used his free hand to lunge towards Bobby Engel.
And when Mr. Ornato had recounted this story to me, he had motioned towards his clavicles.
And was Mr. Engel in the room as Mr. Ornato told you this story he was now notice the to the effect
of again to the effect of effect of kind of like i'm not really telling you the real story but
there's some effects laden in there she does the same thing here she did in the first story about
the magnetometer takes what's likely a true story. I'm telling you part of it is likely true based on my experience and sources.
The president was probably upset about the mag flow rate,
but to take the mag flow rate complaint,
which every president complains about,
and to then posit that he wanted armed people to go to the Capitol.
It's such a ridiculous,
stupid leap that I'm stunned people
like even George Conway, who's not that bright to begin with, would take this at face value.
She does it again here. I'm telling you that the president did probably want to go to the Capitol.
Okay, probably did. But to then take that story when you weren't there and to tell from that and to posit from that story
that he physically attacked the secret service and someone told you that i'm telling you based on
various
data points the story can't possibly be true. Let's go through it piece by piece.
Here's an article in the complex.
It says Trump allegedly tried to grab steering wheel,
lunge for agents throat.
So stupid.
Throat, Joe, choking the secret service.
Ah, they're going.
I can't see it, dude.
I'm dumb.
No, I can't see it.
So stupid. But if you know Bobby Engel, you know how ridiculous
his story is. He was the SAC, Special Agent in Charge of the President's Detail.
They cover another thing Hutchinson said per NBC News, that Tony Ornato, who is a Secret Service
agent, who was the Deputy Chief of Staff, right? Bobby Engel, you got to get all the positions
here straight. Hutchinson is an aide to the Chief of Staff, Mark Me Bobby Engel, you got to get all the positions here straight.
Hutchinson is an aide to the chief of staff, Mark Meadows.
Tony Ornato is a secret service agent who's the deputy chief of staff.
Bobby Engel, Robert Engel,
is the special agent in charge
of the presidential protective division.
So now you understand who the players are.
Bobby Engel would have been the closest
to the president that day.
Tony would have likely been in the White House
in his office.
So Cassidy Hutchinson says,
Tony proceeded to tell me that when the president got back in the beat,
got in the beast,
he was under the impression from Mr. Meadows at the off the record,
moving to the Capitol was still possible and likely to happen,
but that Bobby had more information.
Okay.
Well,
what's the problem with this story now?
Okay.
Here is video and you need you to watch this on rumble folks. I'm sorry. I know some of you listen, but I need you to go to rumble and watch this story now. Okay, here is video and you need you to watch this on Rumble, folks. I'm sorry,
I know some of you listen, but I need you to go to Rumble and watch this very specifically.
Rumble.com slash Bongino. Here is video the day of January 6th after the president left the stage.
And you'll notice what Cassidy Hutchinson says Tony called the beast. I'll address that in a
second. What the media calls the limo the beast
on only the media right you notice the president didn't leave in the limo as we would as the media
would call it he left in what the secret service calls the camp david package or what regular i
guess average folks would call the su. Look for yourself. See it?
You'll see this car backstage.
Now, I want you to pay very close attention.
That's the presidential seals.
You'll see it.
Did you see it with the flags on it?
The presidential seals is only the car with the president.
Notice every other car does not have the seals.
It's just the one with the president.
Now, again, this is the kind of thing,
if you're an agent,
you'll notice these little details. If you're not, you'll miss them.
Those presidential seals,
I have them right here in my office, right here.
Seals from the last trip I did.
I have the seals and the license plate from the car.
They're magnetic seals.
They come off the car, not painted on.
They only go on the car the president is in.
It doesn't matter if it's a Tesla, an SUV, or a limo. Those seals go on the car the president is in. It doesn't matter if it's a Tesla, an SUV,
or a limo. Those SEALs go on the car. There's a little carve out for them where they go.
The president is in the SUVs. He's not in the limo, what the media call the beast.
The story can't possibly be true. Tony Ornato, who is the deputy chief of staff,
who is a Secret Service agent,
it's a strange arrangement,
whether you agree with it or not,
that's a topic for another day,
but Tony's a good guy.
Tony was an agent.
He knows the Secret Service better than anyone.
He was the sack of the president's detail,
special agent in charge before Bobby Engel.
Are you telling me that Tony Ornato told Cassidy Hutchinson that the president got in the wrong car?
You see my point, fellas? He didn't get in the limo. He was in the Camp Davids. That didn't
happen. How else do I know that this story didn't happen? That Tony did not tell Cassidy Hutchinson that the president got in the beast.
Because folks, if you listen to my show on a regular basis, you know, nobody in the secret
service calls it the beast.
Joe, how many times have we said this?
It's like my bet.
No, it's like my right.
Wouldn't you agree?
It's like it's probably this story I it's like my right wouldn't you agree it's like it's it's probably i this
story i've said so many times it candidly probably annoys joe just like i used to reference the black
swan all the time not enough beads on the abacus yeah no there's not enough beads on the abacus to
count how many times i have we don't call it the beast nobody calls it that there is zero chance Tony Ornato mistook the vehicle the president got
at number one and then called it something nobody calls it that is a media thing
I got me I gotta take a break here because I'm getting like this is why I was
at the mark where I am I am gonna get crazy Let me get to my second sponsor and explain to you
how whenever the media mentions the beast
and they say a secret service agent said it,
I know they're lying.
We don't talk like that.
These are media people.
The one with the Delta 6 fiber
and the dev group
hit the beast
and hit the Jackal 46.
What are you talking about?

Okay, back to the story. So Cassidy's saying tony ornato at train
secret service and told her president got in the beast tony would never say that i am 100 sure we
don't call that why do the media call that folks before we had custom limos giving you the real
story we used to up armor uh basically off the rack limousines you get me so say the president
clinton era and earlier we would buy a lincoln limousine say and we would up armor it well what
was the problem the problem with that is adding armor to a standard off the rack limo is like
adding 60 pounds of linings to a suit you bought off the rack. It's going to rip. So we had the Lincoln
and we had other cars as well. And the cars were so bad, we used to call it the stinking Lincoln.
It wasn't Lincoln's fault. President Clinton loved the Lincoln because it had a lot of leg room.
This is some inside baseball few people know. We hated it. Again, we called it the stinking
Lincoln because we put so much crap on it, the car would break down all the time.
It wasn't made for that.
After that, we weren't going to do that again.
So we went to GM and said, can you customize us a vehicle?
Built it specifically for us.
Built it specifically for us.
So we don't have this issue.
The first iteration of that, the Cadillac that you see now, the first iteration of it,
we jokingly said looks like a beast. So guys would just laugh and call it like the beast.
It was a joke. It was never meant to be a buff term like president getting the beast.
We don't call it that. It was a joke. We call them the parades or the limo. And by the way, the term limo can mean anything.
It's whatever vehicle, it's like AF1.
Air Force One is whatever plane the president gets in,
even if it's a Gulfstream.
The limo is whatever the president gets in, okay?
But the beast is a term specifically describing the parades.
We call them the parades, okay?
The media picked up on this term,
the beast,
because media people,
a lot of them are losers.
And they like to feel
buffy and important
and they want to use jargon
to sound like they're in the know.
The dip grew,
Delta 6, 22.
You know what I'm saying, Joe?
Because they're not real like men.
So yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Reminds me of that scene in,
you know, Jive, Turkey's
member trading places. Yeah. This is what of that scene in, uh, you know, jive turkeys, remember trading places.
Yeah.
This is what they do.
Oh,
presidents and the beast.
I'm telling you,
nobody calls it that.
It's a joke.
Tony would not have said that.
I'm sure of it.
And he certainly would have mistaken the car.
All right,
moving on.
A couple other reasons.
This story is not true that the president lunged for the steering wheel and grabbed Bobby Engel's clavicles.
There's an agent, even when you're in the SUV package, we call the Camp Davids, which the president was, I showed you the video.
There's an agent who sits there between them.
You've got the Secret Service agent sack in the right front seat or the boss for the day in the
right front seat of limo a secret service agent ts driver transportation section driver and you've
got another agent in there in the back okay there is no way all six foot three 200 plus pounds of
president trump he's an enormous guy managed in this rather low ceiling camp david
fully up armored to leap out of his seat bypass the number three agent make his way through the
seats and grab the wheel there is no way that happened there is no way it happened this story
i'm convinced is just completely inaccurate.
She takes a little thing, president wanted to go to the Capitol.
All right, point stipulated, probably happened.
And turns it into he physically attacked the Secret Service and grabbed the wheel.
That's crazy.
You have to understand, even in the SUVs, he's about three feet back from the driver.
It's not a standard backseat like you're used to seeing.
Second, there's a lot of diagram, third, fourth, whatever. A lot of diagrams out there. This is what the beast and all the limo looks like. Folks, there is no hard barrier. Here's one of the
diagrams I've seen. It indicates here, this diagram, some of it's accurate. I'm not going
to say what. A lot of it is total crap okay this diagram you
can see it on my rumble account it's basically a diagram of the parades what we call them the limos
right what the media only calls the beast you get the point it has a bunch of stuff like tear gas
here grenade whatever and it says that this rear compartment here and the president's basically sealed off from the
front folks we don't generally close that okay because if the president god forbid had a heart
attack the sack has to be able to get into the back seat so don't please like this diagram's
making its way around it's about it's a few degrees off from accurate i'll leave it at that
it's one other reason. All right. Now,
the story, the crap doesn't end there with Cassidy Hutchinson. Of course, after that,
the media, who didn't apply the Bongino rule and actually wait, ran with the magnetometer story.
President knew everybody was armed, sent them to the Capitol. Ridiculous. President choked the
Secret Service, grabbed the wheel. Ridiculous. Carol Lennig, who wrote a book
about the Secret Service, a couple of books. Carol Lennig has had the Secret Service in her
sights for a long time. She takes here on Rachel Maddow's show, just a disgusting,
massive cheap shot at both Tony Ornato and Bobby Engel. And let me tell you something,
I know these men. I've known them for decades.
Bobby Engel served this country in our military proudly.
Bobby Engel's a good, decent, quiet guy.
The family guy.
He's never been any kind of a troublemaker in the Secret Service.
He's not a company man.
He's not a non-company man.
He's just a guy.
Believes in his family and faith and does his job. He's not going non-company man. He's just a guy who believes in his family and faith
and does his job. He's not going to do anything to ruin his credibility. Now, Carol Linnig,
who is a media reporter with unquestionable bias against Donald Trump, dares to go on Rachel
Maddow, the PP tape hoaxer, and then take a shot at the character of Engel and Ornato by
suggesting like they're yes men for Donald Trump, as if they were going to put themselves at legal
liability and forfeit their job responsibilities because of the president. This is just disgusting.
One of the grossest things I've seen in a long time. Check this out.
What do you make of the credibility of those claims and their implications?
Such a good question. I'm going to
take this in two parts. First off, Cassidy Hutchinson presents herself, you know, as one of
the most credible witnesses possible in this way. She had detailed descriptions of what she heard,
what people told her, what she heard herself, what she knew for surety. And she was very clear about making
distinguishing remarks about how she learned these things. The way she learned this particular thing
about an alleged altercation was allegedly from Tony Ornato, formerly President Trump's detail
leader. And so that's important to know. The second part of your that I would would argue
and stress, I should say, the second part I would stress is both of these individuals,
Bobby Engel and Tony Arnauto, were very, very close to President Trump. And some people accused
them of at times being enablers and yes men of the president particularly tony or noto
very much um people who wanted to do what he wanted and see him pleased that's
folks i'm like red with rage on that i know these guys and to have a clearly biased reporter show her bias while claiming other people have bias is outrageous.
Notice how she takes Cassidy Hutchins as well.
She's very credible.
Look how she knows.
I just told you the information she said can't possibly be true.
He wasn't in the beast, air quotes.
He wasn't there. There's no way Tony said that.
And Tony and Bobby Engel, I can guarantee you, will testify that that didn't happen.
And you want to take the word of a low level staffer at the White House who at this point appears to have a grudge against Trump.
The irony is you show your bias while claiming everyone else had bias.
She doesn't even get that.
All right, I got more coming up, including more from this hearing.
Believe it or not, it got even worse.
I don't understand what point Liz Cheney was trying to make by proving that Nancy Pelosi
and the security operations at the Capitol failed.
I don't understand what point she was trying to make.
Did she miss that too?
All right.
Shockingly, it got worse.
We just discredited story one and story two.
Here was the third takeaway, but it's not the takeaway Liz Cheney intended.
Here, Liz Cheney's talking to Cassidy Hutchinson,
again, about testimony she already gave
in this emergency meeting.
And I don't know what point she's trying to make
other than that conservative hosts
like Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity,
and others, and Don Jr., the president's son,
didn't like what was happening
and warned about the security situation.
I'm unsure.
So what, Pelosi and the Capitol Police didn't do it? What point is she trying to make here? Here, check this out.
This is a text message at 2.32 from Laura Ingram. Hey, Mark, the president needs to tell people in
the Capitol to go home. And the next message, this is hurting all of us. And then he's destroying his legacy and playing into every
stereotype. We lose all credibility against the BLM Antifa crowd if things go south.
The president's son, Don Jr., also urgently contacted Mark Meadows. At 2.53, he wrote,
he's got to condemn this ASAP. The Capitol police tweet is not enough.
As you will see, these are just two of the numerous examples of Trump supporters and allies
urging the president to tell his supporters to leave the Capitol.
Again, I'm unsure.
Keep in mind, Joe, this is an emergency hearing with alleged smoking gun information.
That's right.
Your information is that prominent conservative talk show and cable news hosts didn't like what was happening,
and neither did the president's son?
Either did I.
Folks, am I missing something. I am.
I folks in my missing.
So I don't understand what her point was.
Her point is what did we didn't condone what was happening?
I,
how does this,
I'm not,
I, I,
I can't,
I don't understand folks.
I don't,
I don't understand the point she's trying to make.
She also went on to talk about Cassidy Hutchinson saying that people knew and mark meadows thought
there may be violence well there may have been violence and what the hell was the capitol police
and pelosi doing am i explaining this right i mean am i yeah what what's what's the point
that people thought there was going to be violence and nobody did anything at the Capitol?
And then when there was violence, that conservatives called it out.
Wow.
Damning.
Boycott them all.
Now, if she would have had a text, you guys probably agree.
She would have had a text from Hannity and Ingram and Don Jr. saying, burn it down, mother effers.
I'd be like, oh, well, that's a problem.
Yeah.
What was the point?
Let me tell you what the point.
He said he doesn't get nobody gets.
I'll tell you what the point was.
I'm unlike Cassidy Hutchinson.
I got to admit I'm speculating because I can't get in Liz Cheney's head.
Right.
But I'm reasonably confident.
Liz Cheney knows she's a disaster.
She's a disgrace to humankind.
She's a disgrace even to a disgraced family name.
She knows that.
She knows she's going to lose,
and she knows Hannity and Ingram don't like her,
and she just wanted to embarrass them by putting their texts on TV.
That's the only reason you'd put up something so dumb,
that they objected to this.
All right, again, the hearing got worse here's the last piece of video and i'm gonna get to a few other things this i mean this is a
level 72 disgrace i mean i don't even know how to describe this disaster so in the united states you
have the right because we have adversarial hearings in the united states you have the right because we have adversarial hearings in
the united states you can't be accused of a crime without allowing your your accuser to be cross
examined as the accused you retain the right constitutionally to not speak what we would
call plead the fifth why is that have we talked about this why do you think that is
well again having been a law enforcement officer what our founding fathers who were geniuses didn't
want is they didn't want confessions being beat out of people hey armacost did you rob that bank
no dan i was doing your show he said joe let me ask you again as i stick the knife in his side
did you run yes i robbed it robbed it. So our founding fathers,
who were geniuses,
who had experienced a lot of this garbage
under monarchy and tyranny,
said we are going to retain
a constitutional right
for a subject not to speak.
And clearly that constitutional right
implies nothing about guilt at all.
You have no obligation whatsoever to speak.
As a matter of fact,
in a criminal court
proceeding, it happened in the Rittenhouse trial. Remember that? I don't know if you guys remember.
One of the lawyers mentioned that one of the clients had pled the fifth and implied guilt.
The judge lost his mind over it. He's like, what are you crazy? You can't bring that up in court.
Folks, that's Charlie Brown Encyclopedia Law 101. When someone pleads the fifth, it carries no implication of guilt whatsoever.
Even a mention of it in a proper adversarial hearing is considered grounds to like toss the case sometimes.
Here's the disgraceful, disgusting Liz Cheney, a genuinely grotesque, horrible embarrassment to humankind in the cosmos, a filthy human being who can't lose by a big enough margin to Harriet Hageman.
Showing video of a U.S. of someone who served the United States heroically, Lieutenant General Mike Flynn, pleading the fifth.
She had to make sure she showed this year. Check this out.
General Flynn, do you believe the violence on January 6th
was justified?
Can I get a clarification?
Is that a moral question or are you asking
a legal question? I'm asking
both.
I said
the 5th.
Do you believe the violence on January 6th
was justified morally?
Take the 5th.
Do you believe the violence on January 6th was justified morally? Take the step. Do you believe the violence on January 6th was justified legally?
Yes.
Now, you may say, fairly enough, well, Dan, why are you showing it again?
I'm showing it for different reasons.
Mike Flynn can and should plead the 5th all he wants when he deems appropriate.
Carries no implication of guilt whatsoever.
He's under no obligation whatsoever to speak to this disaster of a human being, Liz Cheney.
I play it again because I think that video makes Liz Cheney look terrible, not Mike Flynn.
Notice, if you're watching it on Rumble, how Liz Cheney plays a video.
Did you catch this, Joe?
Of Liz Cheney plays a video. Did you catch this, Joe? Of Liz Cheney interviewing Mike Flynn.
In other words, she's yesterday,
she's playing a video of herself
that she'd already done in the past
just to make sure Mike Flynn knows.
This is why I believe she put the Ingram and Hannity thing
up too, the text, and Don Trump Jr.
She just wants to embarrass Mike Flynn
because she's disgusting.
Disgusting?
She is a genuinely disgusting,
oh, she just wants to make them look bad.
I took 12 seconds out.
There was 12 seconds of dead air.
I want our listeners to know that.
Oh, okay.
Okay, thank you.
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's fine.
Yeah, no problem.
That's good.
But that's exactly the gist of that.
The whole core of that is intact.
It goes on and there's a couple more to the fifth too,
but that's why I put that in there.
It's important. That's Liz Cheney trying to humiliate this Patriot. This is a disgusting person. Now, again, the media seems to be attacking the credibility like Carol Lennig of
Tony Ornato and Bobby Engel. Oh, I don't know. We've heard rumors. They may be yes men.
Yet notice the credibility problems. You guys catch this seems to be going only in one direction towards Cassidy Hutchinson,
the B story, the mag story to the effect of, well, it gets worse. Cassidy Hutchinson says,
Hey, listen, I wrote this note. I wrote this note after the January 6th, the violence had
broken out. Right. And I wrote this note to the president. Wellth the violence had broken out right and i wrote this note to the
president well even abc news had to say ah did you write that note not really sure abc news trump
white house attorney disputes cassidy hutchinson's testimony about a handwritten note they note in
the article that at tuesday's hearing hutchinson testified about the note the note said uh she said that's a note that I wrote at the direction of the chief of staff
on January 6th, likely around three o'clock.
And it's written on the chief of staff note card that that's your handwriting, Mrs. Hutchinson.
Cheney asked, that's my handwriting, Hutchinson replied.
She's alleging she wrote a note to President Trump about what to say during January 6th.
Well, what's the problem problem is she didn't write the note quote the handwritten note that cassidy hutchinson testified
was written by her was in fact written by eric herschman on january 6th a spokesperson for
herschman told abc news tuesday evening all sources with direct knowledge and law enforcement
have and will confirm that the note was written by Mr. Hirschman, the spokesperson said.
Again, folks, it's not one detail she got wrong.
It's not two.
It's pretty much all the major details.
She's either exaggerating or appears to have gotten wrong.
Folks, this is why we have adversarial hearings.
This is why witnesses are cross-examined.
This is why we presume innocence until proven guilty.
None of that's happening here.
You have a one-sided account where people like me, after the fact, and Joe and Guy and others who work on the show,
but we have to, after the fact, go in to dig into the credibility of the witness because there's
no lawyer there to question her a lawyer could have questioned you really wrote that note because
eric kirschman saying he wrote it and so over a bunch of other sources wait you said tony said
he went in the beast tony did you say that no i didn't say that what's the beast here's video of
him getting an suv does that look like what you call the beast?
He testified that he wanted the mags down.
Did he really say that?
Because he's saying otherwise.
This is why we have adversarial hearings.
Let me bring up one final point, which again, the media seems to want to attack these decorated
secret service agents, but doesn't want to attack the credibility of a witness who seems
to not be able to get the story right. Here's a Bloomberg article from January 14th of 2021. Trump plans
to live at Mar-a-Lago, employ some current aides. This article is written after January 6th. It's
January 14th, 2021 for the liberals who are listening listening trump aides who may work for him after the white house
include nick luna and trump's body man and then molly michael a deputy assistant to trump and
cassidy hutchinson an aide to chief of staff mark meadows the people said gosh that's weird
a week after january 6th cassidy hutchinson who implies yesterday with a wink and nod that trump
was physically attacked the secret service with some kind of like insurrectionist wanted armed
people to go to the capitol wanted to work for him weird joe right strange yeah i want to go down
to work for him my gosh i'd want to get away from him as soon as possible the insurrectionist the
chief man away from that guy. Kind of strange.
All right, let me get to my last sponsor.
And I want to play one of the best super cuts
I've seen in a long time.
Joe, Democrats making insurrection
and political terrorism great again.
Yeah, this is the, now this is the perfect,
this is the perfect kind of coup de grace here, right?
This is it.
The Democrats who encourage political
violence and terror a lot of them not all of them whenever they can not all of them but a lot of them
they want you to believe through the january 6th emergency hearing yesterday that it's donald trump
was the insurrectionist in chief this video nails it down okay here, here it is. The Democrats are doing this emergency meeting in light of
the Roe hearing because they feel like violence may be around the corner before the 2022 elections.
So they want to make sure they switch the narrative back to Trump insurrectionists,
choking Secret Service agents. They're really the party of political terror and violence here.
You need the supercut. Check it out out this is fascist in many ways this
decision and this policy will kill people there is a war out there and we need to recognize that
we've got to armor up i got the pitchforks you get the gas and the torches the hell with the
supreme court we will defy them we have to build a street right, elections are not enough. Get angry!
This far-right, racist, sexist Supreme Court that made this decision based upon politics.
This court has lost legitimacy.
They have burned whatever legitimacy they may still have had.
This is a crisis of legitimacy.
This decision is delegitimizing the Supreme Court.
Who is Clarence Thomas? Is he my Saudi Arabian father who's going to tell me what I can and
cannot do with my body? A lot of people who believe this is a rigged court. I'm just convinced
we need to burn it all down because at this point, I don't know what else we're supposed to do.
Be prepared to live in defiance of these six people.
I'm advocating for violence. I am advocating for violence.
If you want rights in this country under this conservative Supreme Court,
you better be a cis hetero white man or an Uzi, because those are the two things that this court believes have
have rights. This is really not just about abortion. This is about just an attack on on
modern America as we have come to know it. He's watching that show. He's like, my brain hurts.
I can't take it anymore. So we get this whole hearing yesterday full of falsehoods,
misinformation, disinformation, trying to paint you, the MAGA supporters,
right? Trump supporters and conservatives as a bunch of violent political terrorists.
Yet in the same hearing, Liz Cheney exposes a bunch of texts from the alleged leaders of the
political terrorism, condemning violence, while at the same time, over the last few weeks,
we have this super cut of Democrats calling for violence, calling the the same time, over the last few weeks, we have this supercut of
Democrats calling for violence, calling the Supreme Court illegitimate, calling to pack the Supreme
Court, telling people they're all racists if they're not white, cis, whatever that means.
You understand this is the flip-a-roo theory. They accuse you of what they're doing.
All right, moving on. Last story of the day with uh some commentary on hillary clinton afterwards
and some video art we got a hero of the day and the goat of the day we haven't done this in a long
time we have heroes of the day plural la times has this article christy caris halsey she's a
performer very talented very good music but apparently is a big supporter of death in the
womb halsey says good ridddance to concert goers leaving
the show during an abortion rights speech.
Excellent. Yep.
Thank you. See ya. Thank you,
man. Sayonara,
baby. Sayonara.
Listen, do not accept this culture
of death. I told you this happened
to my daughter. She was at
a concert. She was with a concert. She was with my
wife. She was disgusted. I'm not going to say who, but she was at a, it was just, it was just
disgusting. There was some political pitch made and that was it. That was the end of that. I told
my daughter, you want to go back there? You go back, but you're not going with my money. And
your mom is definitely not going with you to all the people who spent
money on that concert joe oddly enough expected to be entertained by good music and she's a talented
singer yeah very talented um and then got a political speech about killing babies in the womb
good for you it's going to take more of this your brave souls i appreciate that you took time out of
your day you probably spent a fortune
on those tickets palsy gets up starts talking about whacking kids in the womb we're not doing
that and walked right out you're my heroes of the day thank you we need more of that we got to go to
the day too and i don't mean greatest of all time i mean like go to the day here's hillary clinton
in one of the most racist things i've heard in a long time because she disagrees with clarence
thomas again there are liberals listening who happens to be black he's a supreme court justice
liberals are like uh shocked they don't know that right here's hillary clinton claiming clarence
thomas joe's the angry black guy. Check that, bro.
It's so racist.
Check this out.
Justice Thomas has sort of floated that out there about contraceptive rights, contraception,
and about same-sex marriages.
But other justices have pushed back to say, no, he's really sort of on his own with that.
Well, he believes that.
Well, he may be on his own, but he's signaling, as he often did.
You know, people, I went to law school with him.
He's been a person of grievance for as long as I've known him.
Resentment, grievance, anger.
Oh, this is priceless.
This is priceless.
Two points.
Number one, the angry black man stereotype is about one of the most racist things.
And what is with the left and black people? I don't know. Remember L.A. Times? It was in L.A. Times. rights number one the angry black man stereotype is about one of the most racist things and what
is with the left and black people i don't know maybe la times it was in la times yesterday i
don't know what we're gonna do with all these black people getting guns what do you mean what
are we gonna do allow black people to exercise their second amendment rights what are you implying
what are we gonna do we give all these black people school choice they can't they can't they
air quotes can't figure it out, Joe.
They don't know what's best for their kids.
Notice I didn't say that about white parents.
Clarence Thomas, you know Clarence Thomas, black man, he's very angry.
Grievance hustler, you know, like most of those black men.
Hills, that sounds kind of racist-y.
Joe, racist-y to you?
Oh, yeah.
Gee, racist-y?
Gee's saying yes on the racist-y too.
Yeah, the voter, I forgot about that voter ID. Yeah, those blacks, those blacks can't figure out how to get a driver's license.
Sounds kind of racist-y to me, fellas. This is like, be a conservative. Be so proud of yourself
that we are on the side of God-given rights for all of our brothers, our brothers and sisters,
black, brown, whatever
color of your skin, be proud of that. Be proud of that. They are always welcome in our movement.
Our black brothers, our Hispanic brothers, our Asian brothers, Muslim Jewish brothers,
you are always welcome in our movement. If you believe in liberty and freedom,
we will embrace you with open arms. I want you to notice this other side.
That's how they talk about you. Second point on that quick grievances.
Oh my gosh.
Hillary Clinton talking about grievances from our time in the white house with
the member of the Joe member,
the great right wing conspiracy.
Remember that when there's a great right wing conspiracy going after my
husband,
president Clinton to the servers in Ukraine,
