It's the best system out there. All right, let's go. Nice. So yesterday, in a nutshell, I brought up the fact that everybody's panicking about the IG report because now it's looking highly likely that the FBI, led by Jim Comey at the time, ran a rogue spying operation on the president of the United States and may have had or tried to develop sources within the White House to spy on the president with no buttressing evidence for a proper probable cause case to do any of this. A reasonable suspicion case or any suspicion at all. Preponderance of evidence, any standard of evidence.

They didn't have the evidence so yesterday i suggested to you that this guy anthony ferrante who was working in the white house and also working at the fbi was a very suspicious character and i thought to myself where did i see this guy before so i'm going to play this cut on CNN. This is Anthony Ferrante on CNN in December of 2018, former FBI official, right, who was in the White House at Comey's instructions and reporting back to the FBI. Here's him on Wolf Blitzer's show on CNN, December 2018,

speculating on the Mike Flynn case. This is important. You're a former FBI agent. What does it say to you that they met 19 times? So I think it's very significant, of course. 19 times is a lot of times to interview a cooperating witness. But I think it also sends a message. Everything Mueller does is with precision.

Everything included in this document was included for a reason. Nothing was done accidentally. Precision. There is him kissing the butt of Bob Mueller, talking about how the Flynn case and the cooperation, it's all being done with precision. Well, if you listen to yesterday's show, you know the Flynn case is a steaming pile of hot garbage

that the government prosecutors themselves can't even explain to the jury what Flynn did wrong. Please listen to yesterday's show if you want a tragically comic laugh about how awful the case against Mike Flynn is. It's so bad the government can't even explain to the jury what Flynn did wrong. I'm not kidding. It's in yesterday's show.

You can see the screenshots. How do we explain to the jury? Hell, if I know, they don't even know what he did wrong. But there is this guy, Ferrante, Ferrante who again according to yesterday's show appears was detailed to the White House he has very specific experience in cyber crime while reporting back to the FBI there is him there's a Ferrante on Wolf Blitzer's show kissing the butt of Bob Mullen explaining how this case against Mike Flynn is precise and it's so terrific and everybody's in a world of trouble. Wrong. Who is Anthony Ferrante?

What was he doing in the White House while working for the FBI at the instruction of James Comey, who hated Donald Trump, hated one of the most corrupt FBI directors we've ever seen? What was he doing in the White House? Well, again, hat tip 279. Let's go back to the Sarah Carter piece from a while ago. Sarah, who's done some terrific work on this case. Sarah Carter had a piece in April of 2019, breaking FBI texts show agents discussed

recruiting White House sources to spy for the Bureau, huh? What? The FBI was recruiting people to spy on the trump white house is this like cuba are we living in the united states right now you may say how did we get from ferrante to here oh oh hold on now hold on it's my grandmother you say hold your horses hold your horses remember that hold your it's kind of. You say, hold your horses. Hold your horses. Remember that? Hold your.

It's kind of got out of style. Hold your horses. From the Sarah Carter piece, she covers a series of texts, but between FBI investigator assigned to investigate Donald Trump and his team, open the crossfire hurricane case and his FBI lawyer girlfriend, Lisa Page. I want you to read these texts. And before we read them, I want you to ask the question and keep in your mind. Who is Charlie? Who is the CI guy? Let me read these texts for you. Here's Stroke talking to Lisa Page.

Talking with Bill. He's talking about Bill Price, his boss in the FBI. Do we want Joe to go with Evanina instead of Charlie for a variety of reasons? Talking about going to the White House. Joe is FBI agent Joe Pianca. Evanina is a reference to William Evanina National Counterintelligence and Security Center. So he's talking about here with Lisa Page who they want to go to the White House. Do we want Joe to go with Evanina instead of Charlie for a variety of reasons? Who is Charlie? Page responds back. Hmm.

Not sure. Would it be unusual to have, and it's blank, show up again? Maybe another agent from the team? Stroke responds, or he's the, quote, CI guy. Same. Might make sense. He can assess if there's any news, questions, or a different demeanor. If Katie's husband is there, he can see if there are people we can develop for potential relationships. Holy Moses. This is the lead investigator investigating Donald Trump talking to Andy McCabe's lawyer, FBI lawyer, Lisa Page, who he's having an affair with, stroke that is, not McCabe, about developing potential relationships. In other words,

sources inside the White House. On a White House, they're investigating with no predicate evidence. Now, there are some key names in there. Ladies and gentlemen, this Carter piece is worth your time. It's in the show notes today at Bongino.com. You subscribe to my email list. I'll send them right to you. You can do that on my website. Please do.

First, Katie's husband. I think we've reasonably established through prior episodes. Katie is a woman that works for Peter Stroke. Her husband is Josh Pitcock, the former vice prince chief of staff. We did a show on this before. It's very suspicious that they appear to be using personal relationships in the FBI, a spousal relationship. Pitcock's the vice president's chief of staff is married to someone, this woman named Katie, working for the FBI. it's troubling enough that it appears fbi agents senior managers like peter stroke he's not a gs13 folks this is an ses senior executive service fbi manager talking about using a

spousal relationship to develop quote potential relationships in the White House while referring to a CI guy and Charlie. Who is Charlie? Why are they worried about sending Charlie or the CI guy back to the White House? Who's the CI guy? Folks, is Ferrante the CI guy? Is Ferrante Charlie? Now, folks, as you know, some of you in law enforcement, it's not uncommon to refer to confidential informants by the name Charlie because you don't want to give up their names. It's not their real name, is it?

Now, again, to be fair, because I don't want to do what the New York Slimes, the Washington Post, and bloggers like the Daily Beast and stuff do. I'm speculating a bit on what this could be and who this could be. Charlie could be a number of people. There are a couple of individuals at the upper levels of the FBI involved with counterintel with the name Charlie. It could have been.

But keep in mind, now, Joe, is this making sense? Tell me if it's not. They are talking about sending a CI guy, counterintelligence guy if it's not they are talking about sending a ci guy counterintelligence guy that's what they're talking about i think could be something else but it's reasonably a ci guy into the white house and they're worried it appears they're worried that he's going to be discovered ladies and gentlemen is this ci guy they're talking about this guy ferrante keep in mind we know according to yesterday's show

and you can go and uh listen with for further details ferrante's working for the fbi this guy anthony ferrante you just saw on that cnn clip who seems to know an awful lot about the flynn case or thinks he does kissing the butt of bob muller he had left the fbi at that point he was assigned by the fbi to the white house and was reporting back to Jim Comey. What was he reporting on? Now, this is where this gets crazy time. What was Ferrante's job prior to this whole thing in the Obama administration with the FBI? This is nuts.

Put up his fdi consulting uh resume this is what he lists on his fdi consulting fti consulting resume where he works now fdi consulting global let me read this to you this is where this gets crazy folks prior to joining fdi consulting mr ferrantante served as the Director for Cyber Incident Response at the U.S. National Security Council at the White House, where he coordinated U.S. response to unfolding domestic and international cybersecurity crises and issues. Listen to this. This gets crazy time. Building on his extensive cyber security and incident response experience, he led the development and implementation of Presidential Policy Directive 41, United States Cyber Incident Coordination.

What's Presidential Policy Directive 41? Do tell. what's presidential policy directive 41 do tell time out we'll get to that in a second so ferrante while he's with the fbi it was that presidential policy directive 41 was signed by obama he is assigned to the obama national Council, and his job is to implement this cybersecurity initiative. I'm going to get to in a second what that is, but I want you to keep that in your head. I got to lay this out the right way.

Let me put up an article by Yana Winter in Foreign Policy Magazine. This is interesting. It describes what Ferrante did after he left the FBI. This is a February 12, 2018 article. Foreign policy. Former senior FBI official is leading BuzzFeed's effort to verify the Trump dossier. Who is the individual? Anthony Ferrante.

Let's go to the piece. There's some interesting screenshots from this piece I'm gonna put out there for you number one as a top fbi cyber security official tasked to the white house ferrante was in charge of coordinating the u.s government response to russian attempts to meddle in the 2016 election among other responsibilities oh wow isn't that convenient the guy responsible for the implementation the ob Obama administration, for presidential directive responding to Russian efforts to collude and interfere, that was his job before?

This gets better. Prior to joining the NSC in 2015, Ferrante was chief of staff for the FBI Cyber Division at headquarters under then-director Jim Comey. Ferrante, still working for the FBI, but at the White House stayed in his position as director for cyber instant response to the NSA through the Trump administration until April when he left to join

FDI Consulting. His first big deal there, his big contract, look at that, fancy effects. Check out Paula out there. Here's screenshot number two. She's like fading things in and out now. You having fun out there? A screenshot number two from the foreign policy piece.

Here's what he does at FTI. Ferrante launched what's now been a month-long stealth effort chasing down documents and conducting interviews on the ground in various countries around the world. This is his, he's trying to verify the fake dossier now. His team directed BuzzFeed lawyers, they were suing the promoters of the dossier because they said the dossier had some legitimacy to it, therefore they can print it, BuzzFeed.

That's a backstory on this. So his team, in working with BuzzFeed, directed their BuzzFeed lawyers to direct and subpoena specific data and testimony from dozens of agencies or companies around the country and assembled a cyber ops war room to analyze that data according to sources familiar in the work. Ladies and gentlemen, how the hell does this guy know where to go and what to subpoena? Think about this.

Ombudsman Joe, follow this closely. Will do. Think about this. Yes'm Budsman. Joe, follow this closely. Will do. Think about this. Yes, yes. Follow me. How does Anthony Ferrante know if he's trying to verify the dossier for BuzzFeed to save BuzzFeed from getting sued for printing it? How does Ferrante immediately know where to go, what countries to go to, who to subpoena, and what businesses? How would he know that?

Inside baseball. Yeah. Yes. Because he's already been on this thing. Bada boom. Let's go back to presidential directive 41. If you don't mind, Paula, please put up the screenshot. What presidential directive 41 is. This is from every CRS report.com presidential policy directive 41 against signed by Obama. What is the role in department of defense? It's about

department of defense. Here's from the piece I want to describe to you. The beginning, here's what this was. What Ferrante from the FBI, who's later working to verify the dossier and seems to know exactly where to go to verify the dossier, even though he can't, he was in charge with implementing this thing. Check this out.

Here's what it was. Presidential Policy Directive 41, United States Cyber Incident Coordination. Get a load of this, folks. setting forth principles governing the federal government's response to any cyber incident whether involving government or private sector entities what's the date it's too good to be true no july 26 2016 oh it goes on keep that up there uh there. So on July 26th, right in the middle of the presidential campaign, Barack Obama has to sign this big, bold initiative on

cybersecurity coordination with the FBI for cyber incidents. Get a load of this, though. Why does he do it? And why do they release this? Because it was issued following, quote, high-profile attacks such as the OPM breach in 2015

and the recent breach of the DNC's email system oh oh working on my boxing skills again with my bad elbows so just to be clear we're in the middle of working on my boxing skills again with my bad elbows. So just to be clear,

we're in the middle of a presidential campaign. Trump has no relationship with the Russians with regards to collusion. It's a hoax, okay? We're told that this hoax is initiated later on when the FBI gets all this information about Papadopoulos. But it appears in July 26th of 2016 that the Obama team is so concerned about Russian collusion in the election. They say, by the way, in December, they say can't happen. So months later, Obama gives a speech.

No one's going to interfere with our election. I mean, excuse me, right before the election, not in December. It's days before the election in October, November. Obama goes, nobody's going to mess with our election. Excuse me, right before the election, not in December. It's days before the election in October, November. Obama goes, nobody's going to mess with our election. But back in July, he's so concerned about the election interference, he says it's never going to happen right before the election. Why? Because he thinks Hillary's

going to win. And he doesn't want to taint the Hillary election. You get that? Yeah. Right before the election, Obama gives a speech. If we had time, I'd play it today, but I played it so many times, I don't want to bore you. Obama clearly says, Mr. Trump's crazy. No one's going to interfere with our elections. You can't even do it.

They're so decentralized. Stop whining. But that's not what he said months earlier in July. They were so concerned. Air quotes can say very concerned. They were setting up a narrative in advance. Setting up a narrative in advance. He puts out this policy directive 41 in response to the hacking of the DNC.

We're so look at this. And who does he charge with implementing it? This guy Ferrante. This guy Ferrante. That was his job to implement presidential policy directive 41 in response to Russian activities. The same guy who Comey assigns to the Trump White House, the same guy who leaves the Trump White House, goes to work for a private consulting company. That private consulting company then goes to work for BuzzFeed to verify the dossier because BuzzFeed's being sued. And the same guy implementing Obama's cybersecurity initiative in response to the DNC hacking,

who stays on with the Trump team while these FBI agents are talking about implanting reliable sources inside the White House. Who's Charlie? Who's the CIA guy? That very same guy that magically goes to work for a private company that seems to know exactly where to go on how to verify the dossier. How would he know? Was he working on this the whole time? While working at the

Trump NSC? Oh, I'm not even done. No? No, no, no, no, no, Armacost. No, no. Because we're approaching 628 territory, dude. Yeah. I know. By the way, when you come down, I got a nice gift for you.

This is a Ventero. I just wanted to tell you that because I love you. You come down, I got a nice gift for you. This is a Vincero. I just wanted to tell you that because I love you. You come down, I want to give that to you. Yeah, cool, brother. Totally off topic. But no, I'm not done. July 26th, 2016. Obama,

we need a national cybersecurity initiative now in response to the DNC hacking. And again, magically months later, he says, don't you worry. Nobody's going to mess with our elections. He's already setting up the collusion hoax. Look what I did. This initiative.

And we got this guy, Ferrante. This is great. He's implementing this thing with the FBI. Isn't that great? Ladies and gentlemen gentlemen what happens just days later let me put up this news day piece it's the first one i found because you can find hundreds of pieces on this but here's a piece of news day by tom broon here what was the origin of the fbi investigation into the trump team may. Look at the date, which you probably already know. When did the investigation into the Trump team,

noted and called Crossfire Hurricane, begin? Put up the screenshot from that piece very clearly. July 31st, 2016. folks do you understand what's going on here you know i only cover the spy gate stuff when i feel like it's topical and there's a reason to discuss it there's a lot of other news going on the country's under attack with horrible liberal values um our political system that is our system of governance our freedom in many cases i don't need to beat you over the head with this every day you know um but do you understand what's going on here? Why the left is in a full-blown panic about the IG report that's about to come out?

Do you understand now in conjunction with the story I put out yesterday, John Solomon's coverage and other people's coverage of the Jim Comey might have been running a rogue intel operation against the president of the United States. Do you now understand what's happening? Oh, yeah. Let me lay it out for you simply if you missed the connections I made. And I've got one more little factoid to throw out there. FBI official is tasked to the Obama White House, Ferrante.

Ferrante's charged with implementing an Obama directive on cybersecurity. That cybersecurity directive conveniently comes out after the DNC hack and it implicates Russians.

Even though the evidence on that is still shaky. In other words, this Russian narrative with Trump is already set up. Remember, ladies and gentlemen, listen, I don't want to throw in a plug here, but it's important. My second book is available for pre-order now, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, whatever you want. If you want to buy five, if you don't, I don't care.

I'm just telling you, I've been working on this for months. My second book nails this story to the wall. It's called Exonerated. Please, please, please pick it up. It will be out in September. It's wrapped. It is ready to rock and roll. They did this before.

They have tried this before. This attaching Republican candidates to Russians in an effort to make them look like they were colluding to win elections. The whole book lays it out like a movie script. They tried this on McCain. The only reason it didn't work is because Bush was president and wouldn't let the FBI in them play ball. Or they didn't even try to let, because they knew it would go nowhere.

They already had this narrative movie script. Blank colluded with Russians. Who's the nominee, Trump? Trump. They filled it in. Here it is, folks. Here's what they did. Trump.

They filled it in on a piece of paper. Trump. That's as simple as that. They had tried this before. The book nails this obama was already laying the groundwork with his team we'll put out this directive we'll say the russians hacked the dnc we'll put an fbi guy in charge of it they the election's over oh my gosh gosh, Trump won. Hey, I got an idea because the FBI has been working on this the whole time. Let's keep the same FBI guy in the White House

while simultaneously Peter Stroke and his girlfriend are talking about implanting FBI guys and using relationships in the White House to get information from the White House to spy on them. The same guy then leaves to work for a private company to try to verify the document the FBI used as a predicate to spy on Trump and the subsequent Trump White House later on.

Is this incredible? Now, what happens? One final factoid here. what happens between july 26 2016 and the opening the official opening of the secret investigation into trump just days later on july 31st 2016 the day before they opened the case on july 30th 2016 my guess is there is some hesitancy, excuse me, in the Department of Justice after this July 26th presidential directive 41. There's probably some hesitancy to start this Trump collusion hoax because the evidence is so shady. Joe, they need someone to push it over the edge. Yeah.

So what happens July 30th, the day before? Bruce Ohr, senior DOJ official, number four DOJ official, whose wife is working for the company, ginning up this fake dossier to Christopher Steele. Ohr and his wife meet at the Mayflower Hotel in D.C. with Christopher Steele, the producer of the fake dossier. They then contact Andy McCabe at the FBI, and the next day, voila, the case against Trump is open. And the blank colluded with the Russians. Let's pencil in Trump. It happens.

Folks, this is insane. Who is Charlie? Who I want. I want to know who is Peter Stroke referring to the Charlie they're going to send to the White House that they think is going to elicit some suspicion. Who's Charlie? Who's the CI guy? Why are you planting a counterintelligence guy in the White House? And why are you so worried about being discovered?

Why are you worried about, and stroke Texas girlfriend, changes in demeanor? Because you're worried about your source, your spy in the White House being uncovered? Where is the media on this man? It's their text. We're not making this up. It's their stuff, man. Their stuff. Where is the media on this?

My gosh, you have entirely abdicated your responsibilities to do even a scintilla of investigative journalism. If it wasn't for the Sarah Carters, the Solomons, the Jeff Carlsons, and the myriad of other people, Chuck Ross and others out there, who have done the homework on this, Lee Smith, others, we would have nothing. You're not remotely curious who Charlie is and why they're worried about him showing up in the White House, picking him out?

You don't care? You're not worried about him showing up in the White House, picking him out? You're not, you don't, you don't care? You're not worried about the CI guy? You're not curious why a guy who was tasked to implement a cybersecurity initiative by Obama in response to a DNC hack they alleged happened by the Russians is the same guy in the Trump White House reporting back to Comey and then appearing on CNN later, defending Mueller, Comey and investigating the dossier to make it appear real. None of this bothers you. You have totally, completely abandoned America and I'm being candid here.

It's shameful. It's really, really shameful. All right. Don't go anywhere. I got it. I'm not even done with the tactical nukes here today. I mean, I've got more. I've got the response by Adam Schiff, who's panicking here.

Don't go anywhere. And I've got another article by Solomon, and I've got a video that Joe saw before the show. Yeah, you're going to, trust me, you're going to want to stay tuned. Folks, it's not going to make you happy, but gonna want to stay tuned folks it's not it's not gonna make you happy but i want to play the video because you need to see what's happening in our cities right now complete anarchy and chaos is broken out stay tuned please this is a stack show it's important may go a little bit over today but it's important today's show also brought to you by buddies at new sponsor here joe proactive now you know it's

So John Solomon has another piece out. And again, not to keep harping on the book, but in the book, not only did my second book exonerate it, do I describe how they tried this before. The Democrats have tried this blank colluded with the Russian scandal before. And do I lay it all out in intricate detail? One of the things I also talk about at length in the book is how in July of 2017, a couple of months after Mueller's hired in May of 2017, what happened? We call it the Civil War, me and my sources. This civil war

breaks out among the Spygate colluders, the Trump administration. Why? Because by July of 2017, my research indicates Bob Mueller knows this case is the biggest scam going. How? Why? Because folks, in July of 2017, the inspector general, Michael Horowitz uncovers the stroke texts. We showed you in the beginning of the show, all of this back and forth planting CI guys, worrying about the CI guy in the white house, sending Charlie to the white house.

Who's Charlie, all of this stuff, this back and forth is uncovered. The inspector general, the essentially the internal affairs officer for the department of justice figures out with these texts that there is something way wrong with this investigation to trump and he gives the information to muller i have no doubt muller and his team now panic they now know they're investigating a hoax they know collusion's a hoax and now they know not

only is there are they investigating a hoax, but that the investigation may be, in fact, worthy of an investigation itself. So instead of Mueller, who runs the most disgusting, disturbing investigation of U.S. history, doing the right thing, coming out in July of 2017 saying, hey, I've seen these texts. Ladies and gentlemen, we're in a lot of trouble. It appears the White House was spied on. Collusion is, in in fact a hoax the real crime here appears to be the fbi forfeiting its procedure to target a duly elected president that's not what muller does what muller does is double down on a fake obstruction investigation to keep the investigation going to hopefully clean this mess up and get trump impeached in time so nobody figures this out. That is the only explanation for the dereliction of duty Bob Mueller engaged in

and his corrupt team with Andy Weissman. Now, that July 2017 date is a key theme throughout my book. That is when this whole thing goes down. The leak about James Baker leaking things to the press, who's the FBI lawyer. Mueller doubles down. Follow me. July 2017, Mueller finds out who's the FBI lawyer. Mueller doubles down. Follow me. July 2017, Mueller finds out it's a hoax. Instead of letting it go, he doubles down.

He finds it, he makes it his imperative to attack the Trump team from every angle. What happens in July of 2017? The Flynn team starts getting emails from, starts getting letters from Mueller. We need you to talk about this and that. Papadopoulos is arrested on a probable cause arrest at the airport in a panic at Dulles airport on his way back to Chicago.

Manafort's house is raided in the early morning. Think about the corruption here. Ladies and gentlemen, Mueller finds out the case is a dog, and instead of letting everybody go and admitting he's investigating a hoax, he doubles down and starts locking people up. Going after Flynn, Papadopoulos, Manafort. Now, John Solomon is a piece up in the hill yesterday, adding a little gasolina to the July date. Remember, July is when the Civil War breaks out because Mueller now knows he's investigating a hoax

and they engage in this witch hunt to cover this whole thing up. Here's Solomon's piece from the hill yesterday in the show notes and must read. Please, again, subscribe to the email list. I'll send them to you. How Mueller deputy Andy Weissman's offer to an oligarch

could boomerang on the DOJ, John Solomon, July 22nd, 2019. Here is for the piece, hat tip 279. Again, circle this for me because he's been working on this with us with this July 2017 civil war. Look at this screenshot from the piece. So just a little background, Andy Weissman, so just a little background Andy Weissman, Mueller's pitbull really his hack corrupted lawyer, they know their case is done in July so instead of letting it go Joe

they double down they go to this Ukrainian oligarch Dmitry Firtash and they offer him a deal a month earlier in June, he doesn't take the deal panic breaks out in July. Look at the date here. Back up on the Solomon piece.

They go back to this guy who's alleged to have worked with Manafort. And let me read to you from Solomon's piece. Prosecutors in plea deals typically ask a defendant for a written proffer of what they can provide in testimony. And they identify the general topics that might interest them. But Weissman appeared to go much further in a july 7 2017 meeting oh with fur tashes american lawyers and fbi agents sharing private theories of nascent special counsel investigations into trump paul mana, and Russia, according to defense memos. Ladies and gentlemen, it is all unraveling on these idiots now. Yeah.

Weissman and Mueller know in July their case is about to get blown out of the water. They have the case. Here's a timeline for you on the YouTube channel. YouTube.com slash Bongino if you want to see it. All of this. This is the July timeline. Paula put it up on the YouTube channel, youtube.com slash Bongino if you want to see it. All of this, this is the July timeline. Paula put it up on the screen. Pause it if you're on the YouTube channel.

You can see how June, July, all of this breaks. Why? Because this is when Mueller finds out the case is a hoax. Manafort's raided. Flynn's contacted. The Circa leak about Jim Baker.

Papadopoulos arrested. Strokes fired. Cohen's put under investigation. Michael cohen trump's lawyer why because andy weissman panics they have to get trump they can't admit to the american public they're they're investigating a hoax so they go to this ukrainian oligarch dimitrio furtas you can read the silent peace for the details but in summary Joe Furtash according to these these crazy lunatic theories um Weissman has is a Ukrainian oligarch who may be involved in this bribery scheme and may have had information on Manafort turns out later the bribery scheme was a slide from a McKinsey company PowerPoint that was not a bribery scheme at all. It was like a hypothetical thing.

So they panic. So Weissman, in July, during the Civil War, goes back to Firtash's lawyers and says, please, please cooperate. We need you to cooperate. I'm begging you to cooperate. Let me lay this whole thing out

for you. And Firtash still says no. What's happening? They have nothing. Zilch. And they are desperate. What if we arrest Papadopoulos? Maybe he'll talk.

What if we arrest Cohen? Maybe he'll talk. What if we arrest Manafort? Maybe he'll talk. What if we arrest Flynn? Maybe he'll talk. Let's go get Furtash. Maybe he'll talk. They can't fabricate maybe he'll talk let's go get furtash maybe he'll talk they can't fabricate information the collusion scheme didn't happen

now folks this is all about to come out and they are panicking how do we know this look at this tweet by jim jordan excellent member of congress from ohio a good man, Jim Jordan. He's at Jim underscore Jordan on Twitter. Inspector General Horowitz is a professional. He's conducting a crucial investigation into FBI and DOJ misconduct. But Adam Schiff said his investigation is, quote, tainted. What's got Schiff worried?

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm in the gym yesterday doing the leg press machine, knocking out some quad dominoes. That's a joke. That was from like the MTV world, I think. Quad dominoes knocking out some quad dominoes that's a joke that was from like the mtv world i think quad dominoes you got quad dominoes doing quad dominoes yesterday legs are on fire i'm looking at my twitter between sets and i see this adam schiff apparently was at an aspen security conference asking questions someone asked him about the investigation the ig

investigation and what happened schiff said oh yeah, that's already tainted. Ladies and gentlemen, they are freaking out. They're freaking out. Everybody knows Mueller was investigating a hoax and knew it. Everybody know Mueller refused to clear Trump, although they knew in July the case was a hoax and

potentially massively corrupt. They know now that the FBI was looking to develop sources within the White House on an illicit spying corrupt. They know now that the FBI was looking to develop sources within the White House on an illicit spying operation. They were using spousal relationships in the FBI to do it. And that an FBI official who left and went to go work and verify the dossier later, made the transition into the Trump team

while implementing an Obama security directive conveniently timed right around the time they opened up the FBI investigation into Trump and alleged that the Russians hacked the DNC. Oh, oh, oh. Don't worry, media. We got you covered, folks. And by the way, I don't care that other talk radio people take my stuff.

I don't. I just wish once in a while you'd hat tip us. Please. Right, Joe? Big time, brother. Just once in a while you'd hat tip us. Please. Right, Joe? Big time, brother. Just once in a blue moon, would you send this? We hat tip everybody. A little kiss.

It really is Very unique You most overused word in the English language, ironically. Okay. This video is really horrible. I sent it to Joe before the show. Yeah. Now, you're going to see this a lot on the news.

Now, one of the things I don't like to do, and I got a nice compliment about this the other day, is I don't like to cover stories that you're going to be bathed in in the cable news coverage because I don't want to be redundant and I don't want to waste your time. But I think I have a different angle on this now what happened there is a disturbing video i'll walk you through it and we come back for the audio listeners but it's an mypd video if you haven't seen it check us out at youtube.com slash bongino um it's it was on it's a video of this individual who had cell phone videoed a couple of mypd officers one in brooklyn one in harlem um in upper upper Manhattan, having buckets thrown at them, water thrown at them.

The story's up in the, you can see it also, for those of you audio listeners in the show notes, I have an article, NYPD cops get drenched by buckets of water in the New York Post. You can just click play right from that article and check it out too. But for those of you watching on YouTube, I want to play this video and I want to get back to you as my experience with the NYPD, what I of you watching on YouTube, I want to play this video and I want to get back to you as my experience with the NYPD, what I think is going on here, why this system is broken

and not just rage because you are going to when you see this. Play the video. No, they're not. No, they're not. Oh, my God. They came over here to talk to them.

They violated. Yo, they violated them. They violated them. No, they violated them. Oh, they're not stopping. Oh, my God. Y'all get back in your dump. Oh, they not stopping. Oh, my God. Y'all get back in your car. Black.

Black. Oh, my. They laughing at them. That's probably one of the saddest videos I've ever seen. Yeah. So it's these two cops, one in one set of cops in Brooklyn and another set of police officers up in Harlem. They're responding to a call.

They're not just there because they're trying to bust somebody's cones. They're responding to a call. They, someone is calling them for police services. Their tax dollars paid for. So a couple of lunatics decide it's a good idea to, I mean, splash them with water. That commentary you hear in the background is a couple of idiots who decided to film it and not help, which I just don't get.

In the second video, they're being, I mean, drenched, drenched with water. I mean, like Niagara Falls levels of water being thrown on them as they walk away folks what's going on here behind the scenes with the nypd i keep many many contacts within the nypd a lot of my friends my best man at my wedding was in my police academy class and is still there folks when i was there there was a transition going on with the NYPD and you are now seeing that transition dismantle completely into anarchy you just saw on the streets. With communist mayor, failed human being, failed, failed. I mean, I'm talking about a failure of DNA. Bill de Blasio, the mayor of New York City, is a disgrace to humankind, not to politics,

to humankind. He's a disgraceful human being who should have resigned years ago, who has destroyed the once great city I lived in. He is destroying it piece by piece. That one man can do this and create a sense of anarchy is so deeply disturbing. it it's imbued in a conservative like me and feeds the fundamental fear of why governments become such a malevolent force in our society outside of our military and our cops which de blasio is destroying what happened when i first got on the nypd there was this theory uh and joe i need you to follow here in case I explain this wrong. There was a theory of policing that you let the little stuff go. You let the little stuff go, especially in very busy crime-ridden precincts, because you wanted the patrolmen and the patrolwomen to stay on the streets.

So, for instance, when I was working in Upper Manhattan in Harlem in the 3-2 precinct in my field training, I once brought in a guy for smoking a joint on a corner I'd gotten into a foot pursuit over. I wrote about this story in my first book. I've told this story here on the show before, too. I bring that guy, he's a young man, into the precinct, and we were going to charge him with possession of marijuana. He was smoking a joint out in public. It was like noon. It wasn't midnight or anything.

I got yelled at by the desk sergeant. And I mean yelled at. Like, yeah, I don't mean like, I mean like to the point where I thought, is this guy going to, you know, start throwing like a left hook? Brought me into the muster room there and just laid it out. You don't bring this in here. This is bull you got a word out

between curses once in a while you don't arrest people for marijuana someone's getting killed out there you need to stay on the streets you don't get in a foot pursuit over this you're crazy I mean I think they let

the guy go too, which I don't even know if you were allowed, you're probably not even allowed to do it. Once you put handcuffs on someone now, you have to follow through. I'm pretty sure that, I don't remember specifically, I'm sorry, it was a long time ago,

but I'm pretty sure they let the kid go. Folks, that theory led to the early 90s, late 80s chaos in New York. Why is that? Because of the theory of broken windows. The theory of broken windows in policing is that if you have a factory and it's abandoned

and a kid throws a rock through the window and you do nothing to fix it, that eventually more kids come by and throw rocks through the window because there'll be no penalty. Eventually you have a dilapidated broken window building. Then they're setting bonfires on the inside. And then what happens?

Then the next building that's abandoned, they break the windows there and then burn that down. And by the time you're done, you have an entire city full of burned out shells of buildings because you didn't stop the first kid from breaking the window. It's a prophylactic way of policing. Stop the early stuff. It's the prophylactic way of policing. Stop the early stuff. It's the early stuff that matters. Follow me. The earlier David Dinkins pre-Giuliani theory was

let the little stuff go, let them break the window, and stop them later when they come back and try to start shooting up the building. What's the problem? The problem with that stupid theory is the kid who threw the rock through the window is the same kid who comes back later and shoots the building up. Get him when he threw the rock.

Giuliani comes in. Rudy. And he says, enough of this. New York was fed up. They elected Giuliani a Republican. They said, Giuliani comes in and says, law and order is going to rule the day now. He brings in a guy named Jack Maple. William Bratton comes in, former transit head.

It was up, I believe, in Boston at the time, whatever it may be. Bratton comes down, comes back. He brings in Jack Maple, and they institute this thing called comp stat where they start saying to people wait wait you got uh 20 30 cases of a guy peeing in public in the 75 precinct where i worked which was packed full of homicides why aren't you doing anything the commanding officer of the precinct's like i'm not gonna arrest the guy for peeing in public you are now you are now and you know what happened And you know what happened, ladies and gentlemen? What happened to the crime rate?

It cratered in just a couple of years. Why? Because the guy in the 75 precinct who was peeing in public that we used to let go is the exact same guy who was going to rape the woman on the corner 20 minutes later. Which he now didn't do because he's in jail. The woman who beat the crap out of her friend and you let go because it was a minor assault, cross-complainance, that same woman two hours later is the one slinging crack on the corner. It was the same group of people. You get it?

The turnstile jumper who we used to let go in the Dinkins era. You can't arrest the turnstile jumper. You need to patrol the train. For what? For the turnstile jumper. He's the same guy that went and beat the crap out of a guy on the train an hour later. It's the same guy.

Giuliani comes in, implements broken windows policing. He says, we're not going to allow them to break the window anymore. Law and order will rule the day. I believe the Giuliani line was at a riot. The first guy to throw a rock gets arrested. The second guy that throws a rock gets arrested. There ain't going to be a third guy. They weren't going to go Billy the Kid on him. After you arrest the first two guys, no one else is throwing rocks. You dig? There's no third guy. That's all gone now, folks.

Communist mayor Nikita de Blasio up in New York who has crapped all over the city and has single-handedly driven this city back into chaos. It is precisely because of him that these cops are forced to endure this. Listen, I know a lot of you out there are cops. I've gotten a few emails on this already even though the video didn't even air yet because some of you saw it on Fox and elsewhere.

I said, well, why didn't the cops hear it? Listen to me. It is not a reflection. I know exactly what happened here. It is not a reflection. I know exactly what happened here. It is not a measure of their bravery. These guys, if they would have turned around and done anything, would have been forced to

fill out 15 pages of reports. They probably would have gotten a CCRB. The commanding officer probably would have had an answer to the police commissioner who probably going back to the mayor, but why'd they start a fight over a bucket of water? Because they don't have the back. This has nothing to do with the cops.

These cops know nobody's backing them up anymore. This is shameful. Disgraceful what's happening to our cops in this country. Listen, the bad ones's fine there are bad apples everywhere get them out unanimous fine but you using the actions of a very small isolated group of cops who've decided to become criminals to indict the 99.9 percent of cops who go out there and bust their asses every day for 30 and 40000 and $40,000 and $50,000 a year is an intergalactic disgrace what's happening to these guys.

Nikita de Blasio is ruining that city. And I pin this exclusively on him. And this is not, by the way, a politically expedient or convenient argument just because I can't stand Nikita de Blasio. I am getting this from multiple cops. Email us. You know it. You know it's true. He has never backed up the cops.

And those poor guys who got crapped on by these idiots throwing water at them, throwing a bucket at their head in one case, it hit them right in the head. These guys would have been nailed if they went back to the precinct and did anything about it.

It's time to go back to the law and order days. Doesn't mean excessive force. Doesn't mean the police state. I'm a libertarian at heart. Don't confuse what I'm telling you. But ladies and gentlemen, you throw a bucket at a cop and you hit him in the head and you splash him with water

while he's working, you're going to jail. There's not going to be a third guy. The first guy throws water, the second guy throws water, when they both wind up in the back of the patrol car with handcuffs on, there's not going to be a third guy. Disgraceful.

Most shameful video I've seen. And forgive me on the audio side if you missed it, but that was a must play. Usually I only play a video that has an audio component that'll relate. I'm sorry you can only get the background noise. You need to see that. You need to see it and you need to show your friends. This is what Nikita de Blasio and these socialist hacks out there want. Complete, total

chaos. Alright folks, thanks for tuning. We're just going to leave it there. I'll see you on the You just heard the Dan Bongino Show. You can also get Dan's podcasts on iTunes or SoundCloud and follow Dan on Twitter 24-7
