Episode Date: September 11, 2020

In this episode, I address the live meltdown on Fox News by a Biden media hack when questioned about Biden’s atrocious coronavirus response. I also address another explosive development about the co...rrupt Mueller probe. Did they wipe their phones out to hide their text messages?  News Picks: Unbelievable! The corrupt Mueller team wiped their phones of the data before turning them over. Joe Biden’s media hack melts down on Fox News. Questions multiply about Biden’s use of scripted questions and answers at events Adam Schiff is at it again. He’s found a new “whistleblower.” .  Professional sports is taking a reputational beating since they turned “woke.” Copyright Bongino Inc All Rights Reserved. Learn more about your ad choices.

Starting point is 00:04:24 I want to open up the show by, from the bottom of my heart and soul. Notice we changed our background for today because this is one of those days, I think, hopefully, and I mean that, hopefully, whether you're my political opponent or not, you're not my enemy. If you're not my enemy, you're an American citizen. And if we can agree to disagree on issues, then you fight your way at the voting booth. I'll fight my way. But in the end, we should be both trying to advance the cause of a better America tomorrow. Can we all agree on that? Especially today.
Starting point is 00:04:58 It was one of the one moments of unity in my lifetime where no one really asked what your politics were. September 11th and the days afterwards, everybody understood that our country was at risk. I want to thank the heroes and patriots and God rest the souls of those who died. You know, I gave a speech in the panhandle of Florida once and a Texas Senator by the name of Brian Birdwell, he was up there speaking. He was in 9-11 that day. He had the Pentagon. He was in the Pentagon. I'm sorry. It's such an emotional story for me. And I had to speak after him. And ladies and gentlemen, it was the worst peaking spot ever. Speaking after Brian Birdwell, who had went to the bathroom. He was in the Pentagon and
Starting point is 00:05:37 the plane hit and found himself in flames, covered in jet fuel, scarred over most of his body. But his speech and what happened to him and how he proceeded to try and help and save others, despite being literally on fire, was one of the most dramatic things I've ever heard in my life. Can you imagine going up and trying to speak? I was ready to just say what he said and just walk off the stage because I really had nothing to add. What do I have to say? But 9-11 was an interesting time in my life as well because I met my wife two weeks prior. I'm sorry, one week prior. Paula's a fact checker for us on the show. As always, she always has the data correct. But I met her a week prior on a blind date. Paula worked down there
Starting point is 00:06:26 right where the pit was in 9-11 by the World Trade Center. She worked in the building right next to it in 120 Broadway at the Securities Industry Association at the time. And I met her and I really obviously right away was smitten with her. And I knew what was going on. I was a secret service agent at the time working in the Long Island office right outside of New York City. And I'm calling her on her cell phone on that day as all this is going down and she's not answering. Now, I'd only met her a week. I didn't want to be creepy, but I was really worried. So I left the message in her house. I was terrified. I knew she was down there. And it turned out she was in Las Vegas visiting her mom who had lived there at the time. And we wound up connecting and
Starting point is 00:07:04 I was relieved. But we knew something was up because we were getting ready to serve a search warrant. So I'm in this small office in Melville, Long Island, about, I don't know, 20 minutes outside the city, 30 minutes outside the city. And we're getting ready to serve a search warrant the morning of 9-11 on a guy who was selling diamonds on eBay. Some of you heard the story before, the catch is he didn't have any diamonds. He was selling you nothing eBay. Some of you heard the story before the catches. He didn't have any diamonds. He was selling you nothing. So we were getting ready to arrest him.
Starting point is 00:07:31 We did a lot of, it was the early days of the internet and eBay and Amazon wasn't even selling products back then like they are now. It was still a bookstore and we're sitting in the office, getting ready to plan the search warrants eight o'clock in the morning. And I'll remember this agent, Tom, he came big guy came running an old hockey player and he said oh my gosh i was just talking to maurice and we had an office at seven world trade center and he said i heard a a bomb went off in the world trade center we all ran into the tv we turned on the tv and the view was on i remember nothing which i'm like well a bomb went off in the world trade
Starting point is 00:08:03 center why aren't they why isn't it breaking news? Well, of course, then breaking news came on. And they said that a plane had hit and struck the World Trade Center. And nobody knew if it was an accident or not. But there was an agent in that small group. There were about 10 of us in the office. That was it. It was the Long Island Office of the Secret Service. It was small. And there was a guy, an agent by the name of Paul there, who conveniently had been a navigator in the Navy, you know, pilot, navigator. He spent his whole life up in the air in planes. He was a navigator.
Starting point is 00:08:31 I mean, you talk about the perfect guy to have there at the moment to analyze what was going on, and he looked at us all, and I'll never forget, and he said that was no accident. He's like, I've been navigating in planes my entire life. It was, for those of you remember what New York looked like down 9-11 the sky was crystal clear he said that was no accident and of course the other plane hit just minutes later and everybody at that point knew you know we we
Starting point is 00:08:56 got all of our our whatever we could gather our equipment we headed on over to John F. Kennedy airport where the secret service had another office at the time. And we sat there and we just watched the list. We had a list of agents we had to contact. We spent the whole day trying to contact them. Remember, the UN was going on, the United Nations General Assembly at the time. And all these agents were in town. We couldn't find them. Finally, by the end of the night, we had contacted everyone except these two guys, and we thought they had perished. Well, it turns out one of them right before midnight or so wound up getting... He was in Nigeria, this guy Kevin. He was in Nigeria on a task force case, so he was okay, but the last Secret Service employee, he didn't make it. He was very heroic and was down there. They believe he was in the plaza
Starting point is 00:09:49 trying to render aid. He was a paramedic and he didn't make it. So we want to remember those folks today. And like I said, I met Paula right around there and it's just always been weird because it's the most painful moment of our lifetimes. I'm not sure if our younger listeners who listen to this show, I adore your support. I really do. I appreciate when I see you in public and I get a little fist pound from you. I love it. But to some of you who aren't alive for that, even my daughter and my youngest daughter, I explained to them all the time. I don't know if you understand how transformative and painful that moment was. I mean, the night I drove home, it had to be two o'clock in the morning.
Starting point is 00:10:33 I pulled up into my apartment in Selden, Long Island. It was about an hour out of the city. I had driven home from JFK after we knew that employee had perished and we knew thousands of others had died. The trade center, our office had collapsed. Remember the secret service Manhattan office was in seven world trade center that collapsed. And I just remember looking at our neighbor, Dennis, because it was over the fence. It was kind of like, we had a weird house in Long Island. I was in the side apartment. So it was kind of like that tool time, Tim Taylor. I didn't, they can never see Dennis. I can only see like
Starting point is 00:11:01 top of his head. So he backed up so I could see him. And he just looked at me with that. It's like two in the morning with that thousand yard stare. And he knew I was an agent. So he thought he had some special insight. He's like, what, what, what just, what just happened? My father was crying. He's not a really emotional guy, but it was just, it was just hard. It was hard for everyone.
Starting point is 00:11:22 I mean, the world was just different. You just knew the world was different, even more so than anything that's happened and all these tragedies have happened. That day was just different. You knew the whole world had changed after that. And it's just, it was tough. I know, Joe, you probably felt the same way.
Starting point is 00:11:36 And of course you have a son serving patriotically in our Marine Corps now, but you remember, I'm sure you remember everything. Were you on the air when that happened? Well, no. As a matter of fact, I'm sure you remember. You know. Were you on the air when that happened? Well, no. As a matter of fact, I was in Siberia with my then wife adopting Joe and Michael. Oh my gosh. I never heard that before.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Yeah, we were there. Oh my gosh, really? The news came over and the translator called and she was upset. Oh my God, Mr. Armacost, your country's at war. Oh, and what? I never heard that. How did you get home? Well, we ended up staying in Russia for an extra week and a half or so.
Starting point is 00:12:12 We were due to go to court there in Siberia to adopt the boys the next day. So I got put off. And now it was a strange situation. I had a guard at the place we were staying, carrying the olive drab uniform and carrying his Kalashnikov. He didn't speak much English. But people know you're an American by the way you walk and the way you carry yourself.
Starting point is 00:12:33 He came up to me and put his arms around me and pat me on the back. And in English, his best English, I am so, so sorry. So sorry. No. Yeah. Oh, man. I never heard that before. Yeah, that's a great story. I never heard, so sorry. So sorry. No. Yeah. Oh, man. That's touching. I never heard that before.
Starting point is 00:12:47 Yeah, that's goofy. That's a great story. I never heard that, Joe. I should have asked you. But yeah, it was just the weirdest time to be. Everybody knew the world was different. Yes. Everyone.
Starting point is 00:12:55 And, you know, like I said, Paul and I had only met a week earlier. So it's one of those things. We never forget when we met because it was legitimately a week before 9-11. That's impactful. All right. So again. Yeah again yeah no it changed everything that was scar in your our lives if you were alive then you'll just it'll never never fully heal so thank you to all the heroes and uh the thank you cops the firemen the emts the paramedics and all of the people who uh rendered assistance perished that day and who made it out um god bless you all. And God rest the souls of those who didn't make it out.
Starting point is 00:13:25 All right. I've got a lot to talk about today. So given that it's such a macabre moment, let's try some lighter stuff because we do have a presidential campaign going on. It's been a loaded news cycle. And man, I've got to tell you, I was watching Fox News last night, as I frequently do.
Starting point is 00:13:41 I'm not just a contributor, but I'm a consumer of their content as well. And I'm sitting there, I'm watching Brett Baer's show. And you know, Brett's a straight news guy, folks. He's a news guy. That's what he does. He is my humble opinion. I don't have much of a relationship with Brett. I don't say that to be, you know, I work at Fox, but Fox never tells me what to say. They don't say, hey, make sure Brett looks good on your show. Nobody ever says that to me. I'm allowed to do whatever I want. I've had an issue with some, you know, reporters who've, you know, as you've seen in the last few days. But I'm telling you right now, what I know about Brett and I watch his shows, he's a straight news guy. If you come on as a Republican, he's going to ask you tough questions.
Starting point is 00:14:16 You come on as a Democrat, he's going to ask you tough questions. Well, last night was the embodiment of that. He had Tim Murtaugh on from the Trump campaign. He had a few tough questions about the Bob Woodward interview. Fair enough. But before that, Brett Baer has on, um,
Starting point is 00:14:32 TJ Ducklow. Now, if there was ever like a, I mean, a guy who looked unprepared for an interview on Brett Baer's show, I know Joe got the cheat because it's a video clip remember joe always sees a video before he doesn't see any other stuff this is hilarious this guy went on brett bear's show i don't know if he thought he was going to get a softball
Starting point is 00:14:54 interview i don't know what he was thinking he's obviously never done brett bear's show so tj ducklow from the biden campaign in one of the worst media appearances I've ever seen. I brought it up on Hannity last night. It was so bad. I said, if we could only get the Trump campaign to have TJ Ducklow on the air, even though he works for the Biden campaign every day, I think we'd win in a 50 state landslide. This kid was an embarrassment, a total embarrassment. He comes on the air, totally, completely unprepared to answer a question. So Brett Baer asks him a question, basically saying, hey, listen, you know, you guys are out there knocking Trump about this coronavirus response. But when, you know, Trump passed the travel ban to keep possibly infected Chinese residents from coming to the United States, bringing the coronavirus with them, you know, Biden
Starting point is 00:15:43 said it was xenophobic. He didn't support it. Ducklow thinks, oh, well, you know what I'll do? I'll just attack Bret Baier. This is about a minute 40 clip. The most embarrassing media appearance for a media flack I've seen in a long time. We're going to call this the worst media appearance ever.
Starting point is 00:16:00 EVA ever. Check this out. What specifically would the former vice president have done? Well, let's get a few things straight. The vice president was not against the travel ban, first of all. Second of all, let's remember an important distinction. Donald Trump was the president of the United States. It was on Donald Trump to take action to actually protect the American people. And he closed the travel to China.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Joe Biden wrote an op-ed in USA Today in January warning that the threat was coming. Joe Biden said in February that Donald Trump should get people on the ground in China. What did Donald Trump do? Donald Trump was praising China. Donald Trump was praising President Xi's response, saying that they had it under control, when clearly he knew, as we now know from Bob Woodward, they did not have it under control. He should have been protecting the American people. He should have been putting real plans in place. So let me just confront this
Starting point is 00:16:52 incredibly dangerous. Understand. Let me just clarify. You're saying that Joe Biden was for closing down travel from China when the president did it. Joe Biden has been clear. And I can send you the fact checks if they're helpful. Brett. Joe Biden has been clear that he was not against that travel ban. But he was for it? Joe Biden has been clear about this, Brett. Again, I can send you the fact checks if they're helpful. This has been fact checked into oblivion. Okay, I'm just asking you the question. You're saying, yes, he was for the China travel ban when the president implemented it, 48 hours after receiving that briefing. The important thing about the travel ban when the president implemented it to 48 hours after receiving that briefing. The important thing about the travel ban. Yes or no? Yes or no? And I know,
Starting point is 00:17:29 Brett, I know that you all like to cite the travel ban. I know that no, no, no, the president does. That's why I'm bringing it up. Obviously, it's going to be in the debate. Brett, hold on. The important thing to know about the travel ban is that even after the president implemented that travel ban, tens or says that he implemented it, tens of thousands of people came in and out of the country. Okay, I'm going to take it that you're not going to answer that question. You're going to send me some fact checks. What was Donald Trump doing, Brett? He was ignoring the virus.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Let's continue the fact check. He was praising China. Go ahead. Let's continue the fact check. Can we, someone please, on the Trump campaign, can you recruit this guy? I'm not kidding. How do we get this guy on the news every night?
Starting point is 00:18:04 I said on Hannity last night, which obviously is after the Brett Baer show, I'm doing an appearance. I said, I think this guy probably cost Biden a hundred thousand votes last night. This interview has gone viral today because it's epidemic of what you see on the left. The utter failure to answer a simple question.
Starting point is 00:18:20 Listen, I'm going to get into this hopefully at the end. Biden's a liar. He's not a good guy. I'm tired of hearing about how he's a good guy. You know, the Scranton kid. Remember how you do the Notre Dame fighting guy? He's not the Scranton kid. He's a liar and a fraud who has spent his whole life being paid by the taxpayers,
Starting point is 00:18:36 using the power and money you've given him to leverage wealth for him and his family in corrupt deals overseas. That's who he is. And he's a liar. And his campaign flags are liars and frauds. This is a simple question. Did Biden support the travel ban that nobody questioned saved lives,
Starting point is 00:18:56 that Trump implemented? Did he support it or not? He was not against it. No, he was against it. Do I have to go back to this Wall Street Journal article yesterday by Karl Rove, which is worth your time? It's in yesterday's show notes. If you don't have this up on your phone and screenshot it and print it up, you're doing yourself a huge disservice.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Here's the real record of where Biden was on the travel ban. Karl Rove, the left's COVID memory hole. Let's go back to a screenshot from this piece about exactly what biden said which is tj whatever his name is tj duplo which he can't seem to figure out here's biden's own words after the travel ban on january 31st the day the president issued the travel ban biden decried mr trump's quote hysterical xenophobia and fear-mongering Does that sound like he supported the travel ban? The Biden campaign now says he wasn't referring to the ban. Then what the hell was he referring to? But it sounds like he was campaigning the next day after the travel ban. Biden seemed to attack the ban again, saying disease has no borders. Folks, this guy's a fraud.
Starting point is 00:20:02 Instead of duck low, just coming out and saying, listen, and by the way, I'm not suggesting other politicians don't lie in BSU either, but that appearance was so bad and normal people see right through that spin. Ducklow should have just come out and said, hey, listen, there was a lot of confusion early on. The travel ban, if Biden was president, he probably would have done it too. He wouldn't have, but I'm sure I'm just trying to give this guy a hint here. And you know what? There was confusion early on looking back on it.
Starting point is 00:20:31 We probably would have done the same thing. If we had access to that information, we didn't bad call. He can't do that. Why? Because they're liars and frauds. And this guy Duplo actually believes that this appearance makes Biden look good.
Starting point is 00:20:43 Yeah. So was he, I mean, simple question, Joe. No. Was he for the travel ban or not? actually believes that this appearance makes biden look good yeah so was he i mean simple question joe no was he for the travel ban or not he wasn't against it i mean this is easy right i mean you know if armacost up in maryland is a bank rob next to his house joe were you for the bank robber or not i wasn't against it no were you for the guy or not this is not a hard question no no that's really bad don't rob? This is not a hard question. No, no, that's really bad. Don't rob banks. This is not a hard question.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Shockingly, the Duplo appearance gets worse. I want to get this second video here from the, because believe it or not, this Duplo guy blows it even worse. Like I said, the Trump campaign, please recruit this guy to do more appearances on media outlets. What a disaster. If he's not fired tomorrow from the Biden campaign, please recruit this guy to do more appearances on media outlets. What a disaster. If he's not fired tomorrow from the Biden campaign, I'll be stunned.
Starting point is 00:21:29 What an embarrassment. And listen, I get it, Duplo. Duplo's going to be like, oh, I have liberal privilege. Dan Bogino is what he's talking about. If Dan Bogino had to do media like I did, really? I've been doing media for eight years. I've had some good ones, some bad ones. Never have I had an appearance where I just absolutely could not tell the truth no matter what. Sometimes you just got to eat it. really I've been doing media for eight years I've had some good ones some bad ones never ever had
Starting point is 00:21:45 an appearance where I just absolutely could not tell the truth no matter what sometimes you just got to eat it you come out you screw up you're like ah bad bad call sorry oh not Duplo all right let me get to my um my second sponsor I want to play just another video from this where the guy absolutely melts down this is just terrific to watch today's show also brought to you by friends of Job Creators Network ladies and gentlemen it's the most important election of our lifetime. You know it. I know it. Everything important is on the ballot. Everything. America itself is on the ballot. Supporting the police is on the ballot. Free speech is on the ballot. Voting rights are on the ballot. Economic freedom and liberty is on the ballot. School choice is on the ballot.
Starting point is 00:22:19 Patient-controlled healthcare is on the ballot. Getting government red tape out of your life is on the ballot. Safety is on the ballot. Our way of life is on the ballot. Our culture is on the ballot. Getting government red tape out of your life is on the ballot. Safety's on the ballot. Our way of life is on the ballot. Our culture's on the ballot. That's why I'm urging you now to join an effort, urging you, an effort sponsored by Job Creators Network. They're working with the biggest conservative hosts in America. Hannity, Elder, Prager, Gorker, Gallagher, Hewitt, Bongino, I know that guy, Shapiro, Sarah Carter, and others. This election's about one thing turnout the left is get their get out the vote machine we need ours and that's why I'm reading this spot because it matters the single most important thing you do to get to get out
Starting point is 00:22:54 to save our country is to vote and how do you do it well here's a tool for you at keepamericaamerica.com and become a volunteer in the biggest largest most important get out the vote effort in conservative history. When you go to keep America, America.com, you'll be given tasks that you can make a difference, use to make a difference in November. I get emails all the time. What can I do to make a difference?

Starting point is 00:23:19 You want to do a lot, they'll give you a lot to do. It all matters, but please do your part. We need you.

KeepAmericaAmerica.com. All right. So here's the second part, again, on a lighter note of how awful this Biden team is. And, you know, I'm not just doing this to poke fun at TJ Ducklow. He was a total mess.
Starting point is 00:24:01 But I'm doing it to show you the futility of the Biden campaign. They don't have a platform to run on. For all of, you know, the critiques of Trump's persona rather than his policies. His policies have been a relatively effective conservative presidential agenda and had been a pretty stable, you know, pretty stable and in alignment with our conservative values. Biden doesn't have it. He's flip-flopped on everything. I'll get to that at the end.
Starting point is 00:24:20 So Ducklow doesn't have anything. They have to lie about everything. Biden was not against the travel ban. He called it xenophobic. Did you miss that? Here's part two, where questions have started to emerge. We played you the video yesterday, if you watched yesterday's show, of Joe Biden in a Q&A. I'm going to use the dreaded air quotes for the Q&A because it wasn't really a Q&A with union members. What it was, was pre-prepared questions fed to people over like a Zoom type. What it was was pre-prepared questions fed to people over like a Zoom-type conference
Starting point is 00:24:47 where Biden's got pre-prepared answer on a teleprompter. So it's not a real Q&A, nothing extemporaneous about it at all. You can tell because Biden at one point is like, can you raise the prompter so we can read the actual answer? So the questions come out, if Biden has the acuity and cognitive abilities, if he's all there upstairs, that he can answer basic questions anymore. So Brett Baer, this is an issue that's been brought up multiple times.
Starting point is 00:25:12 Fairly enough, ask this T.J. Ducklow the question. Is Biden using a teleprompter in these Q&As? Watch this loser meltdown. Check this out. Has Joe Biden ever used a teleprompter during local interviews or to answer Q&A with supporters? Brett, we are not going to engage. This is this is straight from the Trump campaign. Yeah, they're using it. And what it does and what it does, Brett, is it's trying to distract the American people.
Starting point is 00:25:34 I'm just they're using it. They talk about it every day. Can you say yes or no? That's because they talk about it every day, Brett, because they don't have a coherent. Well, you have an answer. Yes or no. Brett, they talk about it every day because they don't have a coherent strategy. Well, you have an answer, yes or no. Brett, they talk about it every day because they don't have a coherent argument for why Donald Trump deserves reelection, deserves four more years. We know that he lied to the American people.
Starting point is 00:25:52 We know that he has not shown leadership during this crisis and they are desperate to throw anything they can against the wall to try to distract from that fact. I understand, but you can't answer the question. Brett, I am not going to allow a Trump campaign to funnel their questions through Fox News and get me to respond to that.
Starting point is 00:26:09 I mean, what an insult at the end. Like I told you, I don't have a personal relationship with Brett. I've ran into him, I think, in Vietnam a couple times. He's always been very nice to me. Brett's a news guy.
Starting point is 00:26:21 And I'm not, again, I'm not saying I have no personal allegiance to anyone. I personal allegiance to anyone i have allegiance to the truth i honest honest i can't tell you what brett bear's politics are which is probably the ultimate compliment for a genuine newsman i don't know his politics i'm not kidding i have no idea if he's a radical liberal or a dyed in the wool Rush Limbaugh conservative. I have no idea. He doesn't share it and he does the news.
Starting point is 00:26:50 And if you can't go on Brett Baier's program and answer simple questions, did Biden support the travel ban or not? Did what does Biden using teleprompters? If you can't answer simple questions and just stay off the news. Just stay off the news. Stick to CNN and MSNBC where they don't have any legitimate news people. Any. What a disgraceful interview. Duck low. Please, Trump campaign.
Starting point is 00:27:17 I don't know what you got to do to get this guy. Get him on the air every single day. All right, moving on. I've got a ton of news. Always on Friday, we got a lot to stack in. So there's been a really astonishing development, hat tip to Judicial Watch, in the fake Mueller witch hunt. Remember against Trump? Again, these stories are starting to come out now day by day and minute by minute, leading us all to believe that not just was the Mueller probe into the fake Russian collusion and the witch hunt into Donald Trump unethical and immoral,
Starting point is 00:27:48 but now downright corrupt and potentially illegal. There's potential destruction of evidence here. Ladies and gentlemen, this is serious stuff. Well, what happened? Let's get right to it. So Judicial Watch put in a Freedom of Information Act request for some of the records, phone records for the Mueller team. They got to have phone records. They were issued Department of Justice official work phones.
Starting point is 00:28:12 What were they texting each other? It's our information. They were working on behalf of the US government, right? Mueller worked special counsel on behalf of the United States government. They worked for us. We paid them. You paid them. Your money, not theirs. It wasn't a private enterprise. It was our phones on our time. So fair enough. They say, hey, we'd like to get a look at what the Mueller team members, as they were allegedly investigating fake Russian collusion, what were they saying to each other? What were they doing? Well, here's a shocker. Here's what Judicial Watch got back. By the way, this is just one snippet of 50 plus pages of documents. This is, I think, page 49 or around there if you want to look. It's like about 52 pages of it if you want to see it.
Starting point is 00:28:51 But I'll put this up on the YouTube. You can check it out. I want to read to you from it. Here's page 49 of it. You'll see some information on there. They're looking for, this is a record of them looking for the text notes or reminders on the phones of the Mueller team people that are allegedly investigating Trump for Russian collusion. I say allegedly because we know Russian collusion didn't happen and Mueller knew that early. Wow, this is weird. So they're looking in 2018, they find no substantive text notes or reminders, no text notes or reminders, no text or notes or reminders. They go to another phone. They find it. Oh, the employee, talking about the Mueller team member, tried to incorrectly enter data password too many times and the phone was wiped of all data and it was reset. Wow. Isn't
Starting point is 00:29:37 that weird? Couldn't figure out their password 10 straight times. Wow. That's interesting. There's one phone. Oh, now we have another phone where they, during an out-processing conversation, they deleted data from the phone. This is another one. Interesting. Then they have another phone right there where there are no notes, photos, reminders, or other apps. Another one, no reminders, no apps.
Starting point is 00:30:00 Another one, no recordings, reminders, or apps. Then they have another one that they were out processing. In other words, the Mueller team was wrapping up, giving their phones back. And it's weird. She had to wipe her phone because she forgot the password too. Had to be wiped out and reset because the phone passcode provider was inaccurate. And the phone was left in airplane mode too. Wow.
Starting point is 00:30:22 Wow. Isn't that weird? Come back. This goes on and on and on by the way for pages and pages i believe it's up to 31 phones the muller team was using that were all mysteriously wiped out accidentally of course dreaded air quotes time yeah joe just a mistake yeah we're accidentally wiped out total mistake of course and then, multiple members of the Mueller team, who are probably texting each other all kinds of horrible stuff. Hey, you know this Russian collusion stuff is BS, right?
Starting point is 00:30:54 Yeah, I know. What a bunch of idiots. The public's falling for this. But let's keep investigating Trump anyway. They couldn't find the data because multiple members of the team just forgot their passwords and magically entered them the 11th time instead of just trying to figure out the password, right? Which they forgot. Magically entered it the 11th time and what do you know? Factory reset kicked in.
Starting point is 00:31:21 And what do you know even worse? They had put the phones in airplane mode before they tried to enter the password. Why? So they couldn't be remotely accessed to reset because then it can't connect to Wi-Fi or the LTE cellular network because it's in airplane mode. Oh, just pull it airplane mode. You can't. The phone's locked. Again, ladies and gentlemen, I've said it often. You know, I read the blogs I have
Starting point is 00:31:49 because our show is called the Dan Bongino Show and we do a lot of targeted marketing. I have my name on Google Alerts. I'm obsessed about people talking about my name. It's for marketing purposes, where we should, what we should target. And sometimes message boards will pop up and I get this a lot.
Starting point is 00:32:05 So those of you who watch my show, I appreciate it. I'm reading your stuff and I always am interested in your feedback. They say, you know, Dan's what he's going to keep saying. Something's going to happen. No, no, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:32:14 I don't know where you got that. I'm not saying that at all. I'm exposing the truth because the truth matters. I'm not going to let these people get a pass and I never will ever. But I don't know what show you're watching. If you think I keep telling you that,
Starting point is 00:32:26 oh, the justices, don't worry, we'll get them all folks. I'm pretty sure Joe, I've said the exact opposite. I have no faith in any of this going forward. That's the real content of my show. I expose the truth because I believe in the truth and I believe the truth matters.
Starting point is 00:32:43 And whether there's punishment now or in some afterlife, I don't know. but I'm going to continue to tell the story, but there's absolutely no question there are two systems of justice. What do I mean? Why did I just go off on that? What appeared to be a tangent? It's not. Isn't it weird that George Papadopoulos, by the way, hat tip undercover Huber on Twitter for bringing this up. It's a great point. George Papadopoulos, by the way, hat tip, undercover Huber on Twitter for bringing this up. It's a great point. Isn't it weird that George Papadopoulos was prosecuted
Starting point is 00:33:09 and sent to jail for allegedly lying to the FBI, and one of the things they put in the charging document was, oh my gosh, he changed out his cell phone. In other words, insinuating they were trying to, Papadopoulos was trying to avoid being tracked. It's weird how that's a crime for Papadopoulos, but when you wipe out a phone and
Starting point is 00:33:28 put it in airplane mode because it can't be accessed so nobody can find out what you're doing in the corrupt Mueller probe afterwards, that nobody seems to care about that. No one in the Mueller probe will face any jail time at all. By the way, when were those phones wiped out? by the way when were those phones wiped out you ever read my second book exonerated if you haven't it's a good one there's a whole chapter on what we call the civil war how in july of 2017 just months after muller's appointed someone walks into the muller team and hey, I've got bad news for you, Bob. Hey, Bob A, we got a problem. Peter Strokes texts with his girlfriend, Lisa Page, from the FBI.
Starting point is 00:34:12 Don't look good. Talking about the smelly Walmart folks, the deplorables. Trump's going to become president. We're not going to let that happen. Talking about insurance policy. When does that happen? Mueller gets those texts in July of 2017 from the IG's office. Were his phones wiped? Some of them starting in July of 2017. Did they realize the same inspector general that showed Mueller the texts from Stroke and Page was going to ask Mueller and his team for the text too.
Starting point is 00:34:45 And they were like, oh no, uh-oh. Were sirens going off in their heads? Guys, delete your phones, put them in airplane mode, wipe them out. I'd like to know when they were wiped. That'd be really interesting if it happened right around July of 2017, right when Mueller figured out
Starting point is 00:35:03 that DIG was watching people's texts. that'd be fascinating, wouldn't it? That'd be really, really interesting. July of 2017, you know, we call it the Civil War because that's when they find out up on the Hill, everything that's going on behind the scenes with this and Nunes and others start really doubling down. That's also the time, July of 2017, when Mueller finds out he's got a problem because the FBI investigators are texting each other
Starting point is 00:35:29 about how awful they are. That's when he goes out and doubles down, and instead of admitting he has no case, what does he do? They go and lock up Papadopoulos. They serve a search warrant on Manafort. Why? Because Mueller's team was corrupt,
Starting point is 00:35:41 and they wanted to shut everybody down. Is that what they were talking about over text in July of 2017? Hey, bad news, fellas. We got texts from the FBI, page and stroke, texting each other. But there's no there there. There's a smelly deplorables. This is going to be really bad. What do we do, guys?
Starting point is 00:35:56 I got an idea. Let's go arrest Papadopoulos and serve a search warrant on Manafort to change the narrative. Is that in their text? I don't know. We don't have them. They were all deleted. Weird. Incredible.
Starting point is 00:36:09 All right. I'm going to get to my next story before I get to that. I'm going to get our third sponsor. But Adam Schiff said it again. By the way, if Adam Schiff says something, you can roundly ignore it and be assured. Whatever Adam Schiff is saying, the opposite is in fact true. I think that's shown to be. If there was one thing that's a tautology, whatever Adam Schiff saying, the opposite is in fact true. I think that's shown to be, if there was one thing that's a tautology,
Starting point is 00:36:27 whatever Adam Schiff says, the opposite is almost always true. So he's emerged again like Nessie, the Loch Ness monster. Head out of water. Schiff has emerged again with a new fake whistleblower story, where again, Schiff actually debunks himself. We'll get to that in a minute. Today's show also brought to you by Parler as you know I'm one of the
Starting point is 00:36:47 stakeholders and shareholders in Parler I love Parler I pursued Parler early as an option they were an advertiser on my show why because I'm tired of tech tyrants I'm tired of Devin Nunes on our interview show we recorded last night which will air on Saturday addresses this topic too he calls them the tech oligarchs
Starting point is 00:37:04 I'm tired of them, folks. Now, here are your options. I'm not telling you to dump your Twitter or Facebook account. You do whatever you want. I'm simply telling you that should not be your home base for social media anymore.
Starting point is 00:37:14 Why? Why are you leaving your social media livelihood and ability to speak freely up to companies that absolutely hate you and don't want you there? Why? I don't understand.
Starting point is 00:37:26 We started another option for you that is blowing up. It's the hottest social media property on the internet right now, hands down. The downloads of the app have been spectacular. It's called Parler. I talk about it a lot in the show. It's P-A-R-L-E-R, P-A-R-L-E-R. It's the news free speech social media app that will not silence your opinions and we will not violate your privacy. That's a twofer. It's very simple. Just download the app, go to the App Store,
Starting point is 00:37:51 create your account, post, share, and speak freely. You want to talk about that? I just read a story the other day. Twitter is going to censor users after the election if they declare victory too early. What, you're not allowed to make predictions now? Go to Parler, speak however the heck you want after the election. We have a ton of users. You will see when you get on. Your feedback will be higher in many cases as it is on other social
Starting point is 00:38:14 media apps because it's full of people who enjoy speaking freely too. Go to Parler.com or visit the app store today, please. Humbly and with the greatest respect, I put my money where my mouth is. I'm heavily involved in Parler because I believe there is no future on Twitter and Facebook. They want you gone tomorrow. It's P-A-R-L-E-R, Parler.com or go to the app store and download the app today.
Starting point is 00:38:38 Parler.com, Parler.com. Follow me while you're there. I'm at D. Bongino. We'd really appreciate it. All right, moving on. So Adam Schiff's back. I saw this story at the Blaze, which is fascinating. You know, just when you think Adam Schiff can't get any worse,
Starting point is 00:38:53 like he won't step on his own, you know what I mean? He can't get out of his own way, this utter complete buffoon. Here's a story at the Blaze where Adam Schiff's announced they have a new whistleblower. They're always fake whistleblowers. They're not really blowing the whistle on you. They just think that word sounds great. So Adam Schiff welcomes whistleblower complaint against Trump. Another one with open arms, despite last month accusing the same whistleblower of lying to Congress.
Starting point is 00:39:17 This is hilarious. Schiff, we got a new whistleblower. This guy's great. He's finally going to take down Trump. I'll get to a screenshot from the piece of mail. Let me give you a little background on it. So the new allegation, and believe me, I use the term allegation loosely because it's coming from Adam Schiff, which means it's always a lie, is that they have a whistleblower within DHS. And the whistleblower is saying that allegedly the Trump administration is suppressing DHS intel that the Russians are trying to interfere in the election and that white supremacists are like taking over America. Now, remember what we've been discussing all week about the coming coup,
Starting point is 00:39:53 the disinformation campaigns being run in the United States right here domestically using disinformation techniques we would use to foment insurgencies overseas, how military and intelligence people are involved with it to destabilize the Trump administration here. That's really happening, folks. It's not a conspiracy theory. Again, just look up the group Defeat Disinfo, which should be called Promote Disinfo, and the Transition Integrity Project, where they're actually fomenting street violence here post-election. Look it up.
Starting point is 00:40:22 We've already discussed it. Watch the show Monday, which did bonkers numbers. This past Monday show called The Coming Coup, we do a whole 40-minute block on it. The central operating thesis of how these disinformation groups are working at home to destabilize the Trump administration in the event of his re-election is by promoting disinformation and narratives.
Starting point is 00:40:42 In other words, fake stories. Fake news. Intel ops we'd run overseas, we're running here. Well, what's one of the worst, most disingenuous fake narratives used against Trump? Or actually, let me give you the top two that have been used to destabilize him and ruin his credibility.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Number one, that he's not a real president, that the Russians put him in office, right? You heard that one? Remember that? And what's the second one? That he is a devout racist and white supremacist. So therefore, the minority population of America should consider this guy a clear and present danger.
Starting point is 00:41:14 Isn't it weird how this whistleblower magically appears in before the election saying, hey, we got a bunch of information in DHS about the Russians coming again for Trump and that how white supremacists are taking over the country. Isn't that weird how that happens right before the election and this whistleblower appears? But the whistleblower has a small problem. Let's go to what he's saying first. Let's take this screenshot from The Blaze.
Starting point is 00:41:34 You can read this piece in the show notes. Again, bongino.com slash newsletter. Subscribe to the show notes. I suggest you do. Quote, The Blaze. Among the information allegedly censored, about this dhs information where details regarding the rising threat of white supremacism and russia's attempt to interfere in the 2020 election according to dhs official brian murphy wow you should remember that name
Starting point is 00:41:55 who filed the formal whistleblower complaint with the department inspector general this week now ladies and gentlemen why these things are legitimate threats any kind of racist activity white on black black on white hispanic on hispanic whatever it may be any kind of racism or or xenophobia should be roundly denounced by everyone and will continue to be renounced by me consistently on this show all the time we're're all children of God. Don't ever forget that. But do you really believe that these reports right now, given everything going on with Antifa and Black Lives Matter,
Starting point is 00:42:35 riots, burning, looting in the city, that there's not a tinge of maybe a political narrative building every year? The Russians are coming again. Trump, white supremacists, all that. Ladies and gentlemen, it's obvious that something's going on here meant to promote a disinformation op, again, to destabilize Trump.
Starting point is 00:42:53 So, of course, Adam Schiff says, well, we can use this guy, Brian Murphy. He could be really useful. A former DHS guy saying, gosh, my information about this is being suppressed. There's no evidence that's true, of course. But they have a little problem with Brian Murphy. Here's what the New York Times wrote about Brian Murphy a little while ago in early August. This is the same guy. Homeland Security reassigns an official whose office compiled intelligence on journalists.
Starting point is 00:43:20 August 1st. Adam Goldman, spy gate conspirator. Here we go. This is about New York Times about Brian Murphy, the same whistleblower who I promise you, Joe, will now be beatified and knighted and be declared a saint by the left. So here's what the New York Times said about Murphy August 1st. In light of recent public reports, we are concerned that Murphy may have provided incomplete, potentially misleading information to the committee staff during our recent oversight engagement. Well, who said that? Oh, Adam Schiff. Adam Schiff said that. Adam Schiff. That's really weird. So the guy was a liar a month ago in August, but now all of a sudden he'll be sainted. St. Murphy, St. Brian. They'll have a school named after him somewhere in a district around America.
Starting point is 00:44:06 There'll be a bridge named after him, an overpass somewhere. The Brian Murphy overpass. The Brian Murphy, he's called the what? The trestle down in Glendale where he's from. The trestle, the Brian Murphy trestle. He'll be said, there'll be golden casts everywhere inscribed with the name Brian Murphy,
Starting point is 00:44:23 despite the fact that Adam Schiff just called him a liar a month ago. Is he a liar or is he not a liar? Again, it doesn't matter, folks. It matters to us. What matters is, is he useful to the narrative building effort that Trump is a white supremacist and Russia is going to put him in the White House. That's all that matters. If Murphy's telling the truth or not telling the truth, we'll see. He's entitled to file a whistleblower complaint. We'll see that. He'll have his day. But I would be strongly suspect of any of these whistleblowers emerging that Adam Schiff is promoting because they're just useful tools for Adam Schiff. All right, let me get to my final sponsor. Did I skip over? No, no, I didn't. Okay. I got a line from Peter Stroke's book.
Starting point is 00:45:11 It's going to blow your mind. Just adding on to what I told you yesterday about how Brennan's a puppet master. He's basically just admitting it right now. My final sponsor today, LifeLock. LifeLock, ladies and gentlemen, how much is your personal information worth to cybercriminals? A lot. Researchers have compiled an overview of the average price of stolen personal data for sale on the dark web. And while online banking logins cost an average of $35, the range of documents and account details needed to commit identity theft costs $1,285. The bulk of stolen information, where does it come from? Large-scale data breaches. It's important to understand how cyber crime and identity theft are affecting our lives.
Starting point is 00:45:45 It affected me. I had my identity stolen. It was awful. You can miss certain identity threats by just monitoring your credit. Good thing there's LifeLock. We have LifeLock for me, my wife, and the whole family. LifeLock detects a wide range of identity thefts, like your social security number for sale on the dark web.
Starting point is 00:46:01 If they detect your information has been compromised, they'll send you an alert. Listen, no one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but you can find out if your information is on the dark web. Don't wait another day. Get your free dark web scan at lifelock.com slash scan. Pick the plan that's right for you and save up to 25% off your first year using promo code Bongino, B-O-N-G-I-N-O, my last name.

Starting point is 00:46:45 Wonder what happened to his phone. Was that wiped too? That'd be crazy. So he has a book out. These guys just can't stay. You would think this guy would be totally humiliated. He's been just, his facts have been eviscerated in public. He's embarrassed himself completely over and over again.
Starting point is 00:47:00 In his book, he can't even get right the date and the reason that they started the case. It's just an embarrassment that the reason they started the spying operation against Trump. But here's an excerpt from his book, hat tip undercover humor, by the way, for pointing this out. Again, ladies and gentlemen,
Starting point is 00:47:15 Comey and Brennan, Brennan's the puppet master. Comey knows it. And this is why these two, one of them is going to have to flip on each other. This is from Stroke's own book. He says, quote, shortly after we opened Crossfire, talking about the crossfire hurricane case against trump cia director brennan approached comey about disturbing intelligence that was beginning to come in about russia's burgeoning interference in the elections folks there was no bur. This is all, all coming from the dossier. All of it. Again,
Starting point is 00:47:49 more evidence. Strokes now saying, oh, right after, remember, Brennan doesn't, says he doesn't get the dossier until December. If they opened up the case on July 31st, which is before December for the liberals watching, how does Brennan know any of this? Because he's marshalling the entire operation. I interviewed Devin Nunes yesterday. It'll air on Saturday. Please watch it. It's really, really good. He brings up this unbelievable angle I'd never considered before about how Hillary's email is tied to this whole thing and the DNC hack or the alleged hack. hack. Brennan was the puppet master, folks, behind this whole thing. He's the one pushing the FBI early on to investigate this. But to investigate what? I asked Nunes this in the interview multiple times. He gives a great answer. Where are they getting this from? Russia's interfering to help Trump. The dossier, that's it. There is no official intelligence about any of this, ladies and gentlemen. It's all a fake from day one.
Starting point is 00:48:47 And now Stroke, because he can't keep his pen off his paper and can't shut his mouth, is basically admitting it in his own book. Frustrating. All right, moving on. A lot to get through today. So I've been telling you about disinformation operations. The coming coup. Our show on Monday, again, did bonkers numbers where
Starting point is 00:49:05 I describe and lay out for you exactly how they're fomenting a color revolution, liberal Democrats and their media allies right here at home. And the tactics they use to foment insurgencies and revolutions overseas are being used right here, right now in the United States by former military folks who should be pledging allegiance to our country instead are fomenting disinformation operations here. How do they do it? They destabilize the presidency with fake narratives and they engage in narrative building to make you believe that these false stories are in fact true. You want to see how they do it through their media allies?
Starting point is 00:49:37 Here is a perfect example. Hat tip, Eddie Zipperer on social media where I saw this. This is just an A-plus example of how to build a fake narrative to, again, make it seem like, what are the two damaging narratives against Trump they're going to use? He's a Russian asset and a traitor, and he's a white supremacist, because those they think are the two most damaging. You're going to see all kinds of fake stories right up into the election about these two things. Mark it. The verdict is in. Mark it today. about these two things, mark it.
Starting point is 00:50:02 The verdict is in. Mark it today. You don't believe me? Here you go. Here's a question, right, that Bob Woodard asked Donald Trump in their phone interview. Bob Woodard is this hack anti-Trump who's writing a book about Trump.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Why Trump interviewed with him, I don't know, but Woodward has tapes. So NBC News has this article. Trump said he feels no responsibility to understand the anger of black Americans, Woodward book says. Trump said he feels no responsibility to understand the anger of black Americans, Woodward Book says. Trump said that? Is that a quote?
Starting point is 00:50:36 I feel, Donald Trump, I feel no responsibility to understand the anger of black Americans. That's a bold title, no, Joe? Sounds kind of racist, right? Gosh, that Trump is really awful. Is that what he said? Well, of course, that's not exactly what he said we have the woodard question here oh yeah here's actually the woodard question and the answer now uh joe i want as i'm reading this i want you to read for the quote from donald trump where he says i don't care about black americans can he all right so just be prepared get ready i'm with you and stop me when i say that
Starting point is 00:51:02 so here's woodward's question to Trump. This is the actual question. Do you have any sense that the privilege has isolated and put you in a cave to a certain extent? As it put me and I think lots of white privileged people in a cave. And we have to work our way out to understand the anger and the pain, particularly black people feel in this country. Woodward asked Trump. No, Trump responded. You really drank the Kool-Aid, didn't you? Just listen to you. Wow. pain particularly black people feel in this country woodward asked trump no trump responded you really drank the kool-aid didn't you just listen to you wow no i don't feel that at all
Starting point is 00:51:32 you got more uh yeah paula put up the second part of the quote because i haven't seen it yet no joe oh do you have it on video right joe play the video okay oh there oh thank you oh then we've got black screen that is not your youtube account failing that's paula putting up the quote because it doesn't exist that is the quote dad yeah joe play the video do the video where trump says he doesn't care about black people all right go ahead what what are you doing you're messing with me. Come on, play the video. We don't have time for this.
Starting point is 00:52:06 Stop screwing around. I don't have it. You don't have it. You don't have it. Of course, totally unprepared. He's not unprepared. There is no damn video. That's not what Trump said.
Starting point is 00:52:15 Trump did not say he doesn't care about black Americans. He's making fun of Woodward for bringing up this dopey idea of white privilege. He doesn't say anything about, I don't care about black Americans. So what's going on here? Again, a disinformation operation by former military people. This is not a conspiracy theory.
Starting point is 00:52:36 They're talking to the New York Post and others, Stanley McChrystal and others. Read the articles, watch my Monday show. They're not hiding this. It's not not conspiracy theory. Really? An open conspiracy theory? They're using fake stories about Trump being a Russian asset and a white supremacist, and they're just inventing headlines.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Trump said he doesn't care about the plight of black people. That quote was not in there. Paula can't find it. Joe can't find it because it doesn't exist. But that's what the headline says. Trump on black people. I don't care. The reality is Trump's laughing at Woodward for being a tool like he is and bringing up dopey things in a conversation like white privilege.
Starting point is 00:53:21 All right. You know what? Paula, can we just skip ahead to the revolver piece i'm gonna i want to do the sturgis story but let me just give you the sturgis story in a nutshell it's in the show notes yesterday the leftists are trying to oh sturgis the motorcycle rally thousands of cases of coronavirus there's not thousands of cases it was 270 it's a fake story fake story but i want to move on again it's a fake story you can read it in I want to move on again. It's a fake story. You can read it in the show notes. It's dumb.
Starting point is 00:53:46 It's just made up. But while we're on this topic of fake narratives, disinformation operations here at home, and the coming coup they're planning, for real, the leftists, if Trump wins, there's an interesting Revolver article. This is worth your time.
Starting point is 00:54:03 It's in yesterday's show notes. Revolver exclusive. Meet Norm Eisen, the legal hatchet man and central operative in the color revolution against President Trump, September 9, 2020. This Revolver piece is really good. In there, they address how Norm Eisen, who ironically, Joe, this is hilarious, was President Obama's ethics czar. That's kind of hilarious, isn't it? His ethics czar. How this guy Eisen has written books and is like the hatchet man behind the scenes organizing a massive disinformation intelligence tactics up to destabilize Trump in the event he wins. How he's one of the guys behind the scenes doing this.
Starting point is 00:54:45 And they talk about, again, the tactics they're using. From this revolver piece, how Eisen in his book and how he cites others who've used this stuff in the past. This is fascinating stuff. How they use this color revolution model overseas and they're using it here. Quote, a color revolution in this context. Now, listen to what it is. It's going to sound familiar, right?
Starting point is 00:55:05 Refers to a specific type of coordinated attack that the United States government has been known to deploy against foreign regimes, particularly in Eastern Europe, deemed to be authoritarian and hostile to our interests. Rather than using a direct military intervention to affect regime changes in Iraq, color revolutions attack a foreign regime by contesting its electoral legitimacy. Check, they're doing that now, here. Organizing mass protests and acts of civil disobedience.
Starting point is 00:55:33 Check, they're doing that here. And leveraging media contacts to ensure favorable coverage to their agenda in the Western press. Check, they just did it in that NBC News article. Trump doesn't care about black people. That's not what he said at all. Interesting. They talk about in this piece how there's these playbooks out there.
Starting point is 00:55:55 And when you read these playbooks, Norm Eisen, the work of Eisen and others, that they go through in this revolver piece, you're going to be like, holy Moses. They're engaging in an insurgency effort right here in the United States, right in front of our very eyes. The evidence is right in front of us.
Starting point is 00:56:13 Remember the two rules of the conspiracy to take the government down. One, don't talk about the conspiracy. And two, blame the conspiracy on your opponent, which is exactly what they're doing. Everything they're doing, they're accusing Trump of doing. Trump's questioning the integrity of the mail-in ballots. No, he's not. The New York Times was questioning the integrity of the mail-in ballots in a 2012 article, and so was
Starting point is 00:56:34 bipartisan commissions forever. Trump's targeting racial minority. No, you're doing that. You're the ones burning down minority neighborhoods. Trump's the one engaging in policies to employ black and Hispanic Americans. This is the total opposite. This is total disinformation, folks. Why are they doing this? Well, they're doing it for obvious reasons. It's about power, but they're doing it to cover up for a flawed candidate. I said last night, and I'll say it again about Biden. Ladies and gentlemen, he is not a good guy. I opened up the show with this, and I'm going to end the show with this today. This is not a good guy. This is a corrupt career politician who has taken your tax dollars for 47 years to be in the highest positions of power in the United States government, a hair away from
Starting point is 00:57:21 the presidency, both as the vice president and now as the Democrat nominee for president, who has lied and manipulated his way into enriching his family and one of his kids and other family members as well, using his own power as a carrot stick for foreigners to give his son a job. This is not a good guy. He is a liar and a fraud.
Starting point is 00:57:47 And although I don't wish any ill will on anyone, and I never will, he is a man totally, utterly unprepared for the presidency. His cognitive abilities are obviously not there. And when his cognitive abilities were there, he was a corruptocrat. He is a liar.
Starting point is 00:58:04 The media is covering for him you need to have an alternative in the event of a color revolution you need to have someone ready to move in the white house right away biden unfortunately is their guy and they will defend him no matter what he has lied about the travel ban opened up the show with that one he's lied about redirecting police funding he has said he absolutely wants to redirect police funding. That's a quote. Absolutely. When asked about redirecting police funding, he's going to hike your taxes. If you're middle class, you got a tax cut from Trump. Your rate was 25%. Trump tax cuts cut your rate to 22%. That rate is going to go back up three percentage points because Biden has sworn on the record multiple times he's going to repeal that
Starting point is 00:58:44 tax cut. Very simple math, folks. It's not hard. He said he wants a mask mandate until he changed his mind on a mask mandate. He said multiple times he's going to stop fracking and fossil fuels. Now he's saying Trump's accusing me of wanting to stop fracking. No, he's not. You're accusing yourself. We have the tape. You're a liar. He has said he's for the Hyde Amendment, preventing your federal tax dollars from taking the lives of children in the womb now he said oh i was against the hyde amendment no he said he's a liar the man ladies and gentlemen is an epic colossal fraud all right one final i know i said it'd be my last one final story i just want to give a quick uh plug to a great book i'm reading
Starting point is 00:59:22 right now but uh folks another article on the show I'd like you to read just to show you, you are winning here. We have an election coming up. Obviously Biden's a flawed candidate, but we have a culture war that's not coming up that's going on right now. And folks, I want you to know you're on the right side of it and you are winning. Look at this article by Red State about pro sports. They got woke. They decided that crapping on our national anthem and our country was a good idea, kneeling in disrespect, wearing socks depicting police officers as pigs, that these are our new idols. No, no, not ours.
Starting point is 00:59:52 Red State. Beyond the ratings, a new poll shows professional sports are in real trouble with Americans. Ladies and gentlemen, pro sports are taking a PR beating. Their favorable, unfavorables are through the roof bad right now. You are winning. Believe me, this is no long-term strategy for pro sports success. Check this out from the piece. The negative impressions by Americans now see sports are underwater by double digits with a 30% to 40% favorable, unfavorable ratio. Ladies and gentlemen, you are winning because you're principled i know you love sports i did too it's hard to not watch it was hard not to watch last night i can't tell
Starting point is 01:00:30 you what happened in the nfl chiefs game last night because i don't give a damn what happened in the nfl chiefs game last night because i didn't watch one second of it don't care don't care one bit you shouldn't either you know why because they don't care about you Don't care one bit. You shouldn't either. You know why? Because they don't care about you. They don't care about your opinion.
Starting point is 01:00:50 They don't care about why you would find kneeling while our national anthem is played. They don't find why staying in the locker room while our great national anthem is played would be offensive. They haven't even bothered to ask you, and they don't care. So let me ask you this. If they don't care about you, I said this to my brother because he still loves his baseball. They don't care about you. I said this to my brother because he still loves his baseball. They don't care about you.
Starting point is 01:01:05 Why do you care about them? Watch some other sports. Watch UFC where they don't give a damn about any of this wokeism crap. They let their athletes say what they want to say. Watch something else where they actually care. All right. Quick note, folks. I'm reading a great book.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Just wanted to give a quick pitch for it because it's very good especially chapter four i'm reading sarah huckabee sanders new book speaking for myself a really good book um i don't do a lot of books on the show um within the content of the daily show sometimes we do interviews devon newness i'll hop on about my book later but um this is a great book highly recommended sarah huckabee sanders she did a great job at the white house there's a cover right there, speaking for myself. I highly recommend chapter four. She gives kind of some
Starting point is 01:01:47 interesting inside baseball about when she became the press secretary. It's interesting, not just for me, because I had worked inside the White House. She talks about some of how
Starting point is 01:01:55 the White House actually works. She says the funny things about the White House mess and how she never got to eat in the mess as like a dining room. How she just picked it up at the window, which is what we did, obviously.
Starting point is 01:02:04 But also what an inauguration was like and what it was like being inside the White House during these tumultuous times. Really great book. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, speaking for myself, highly recommended. Go check it out. Hey, thanks for all your listenership this week.
