Today is Monday, August 8th, 2022.
Swamp scum in Washington, D.C. in the dark of night.
In the middle of your weekend, cackled and clapped and cheered as they raised your taxes, raised inflation, hired IRS agents, and Joe Biden has now fled D.C. amid a massive new Hunter Biden scandal.
We cover it all on The Benny Show.
My name is Benny Johnson.
All right, ladies and gentlemen, we are sick.
And tired of this swap scum.
This is the worst thing we have seen DC do in a very, very long time.
It's not that it's...
The middle of a recession, and it is a recession, we've had two negative quarters of GDP growth, is not that it's the middle of, I don't care what you call it, an economic malaise, a horrible time economically for regular Americans every single day.
My wife comes home and is like, hey, you know what?
It used to cost us $80 at the grocery store, costs $300.
It's not that this administration has destroyed our currency, our border, national security, has destroyed our schools, and destroyed It's that they don't care.
A Congress that cared would seek to affect the prices of gas for regular Americans.
They would seek to close the border.
They would seek to deflate.
The amount of currency that it currently takes to get your grocery bills.
But they don't care, ladies and gentlemen.
And that is why an orgy of spending was just passed last night in Congress.
Conal Harris cackling while she did it and Democrats cheering while they raised your taxes and raised inflation.
And funded the IRS to hire 87,000 new agents.
Do you know that now the IRS has better funding in America than most first world militaries?
We have more expenditures in the IRS.
For America, then the vast majority of first world countries spend on their own national defense, lethal defense forces.
The IRS is now one of the most powerful armies in the world.
And who are they coming after?
Well, they're not coming after the Democrat base, by the way.
Those people don't pay taxes, by and large.
Those people are not making enough money or are taking too much from the system to pay any taxes.
The 50% of Americans who don't pay income taxes, those are the Democrat base.
The 87,000 IRS agents are coming after you, ladies and gentlemen.
They're coming after the productive class, the deplorables, the MAGA class, the people who have jobs or want to improve their lives.
The purpose of this move is to engorge the administrative state and to bring power, assume power, unto the administrative Very separate, very diluted federal power.
And the IRS is one of those agencies that brings glut onto the federal purse.
It's one of those few agencies that has the power to really step in and destroy a life.
See Lois Lerner a few years ago under Barack Obama.
Barack Obama targeted regular Americans, including but not limited to, my family, my direct family, who had to pay expensive lawyers for a small digit that was missing on one of their tax forms and to fight the IRS when it turned out the IRS actually owed them money.
Do you have a story like this?
Let us know in the comments.
unidentified
So, let's see.
benny johnson
Most Americans do.
The IRS making a huge mistake, costing people money.
It turns out the IRS actually owed them money.
This happened not only to my parents, But my mother-in-law and father-in-law, my wife's parents, everyone seems to have this story.
And what do they have in common?
Well, they were members of the Tea Party.
They were members of the Tea Party movement, just in case you're wondering where this is going.
A short history will show you that Lois Lerner was in charge of an IRS agency, an organization inside the IRS that...
Targeted specifically conservatives.
She belongs in jail.
She ended up losing her job, having to go testify before the Senate.
Expect that to happen more and more.
It's not enough to have the FBI going after every little granny who waved a 25-cent flag at Trump's rally in Washington, D.C. It's now they will come after you every single year because they need a reason to come after you every single year, and that's what this bill is all about.
And that's why they're cackling.
This bill...
Is also a climate bill, which all that is, is payouts to Democrat donors in Democrat-run industries with Democrat stockholders, most of them being in Congress themselves, putting money from the federal coffer into their own bank accounts.
You've been watching Nancy Pelosi do it around the world, and now you're watching this.
I'm enraged about it.
It's so enraging, truly.
Because the Senate is 50-50.
You should never be able to pass something like this in a 50-50 Senate.
A 50-50 Senate means that Americans want moderation.
You can say whatever you want about the Georgia Senate races.
So those are the two races that flipped from Republican to Democrat.
And you can say whatever you want about those races.
There's a lot to be said.
There's a lot to be said about the Republican establishment inside of Georgia.
It's a crazy state.
It's a totally weird state.
Is happening inside of a 50-50 Senate, which should never be that way, by the way.
Republicans should have a dominant 10-vote advantage inside the Senate if things were normal, but things are not normal.
You have states like Republican West Virginia and Montana that send Democrats to the Senate for some reason.
West Virginia and Montana, I'm praying with you, I'm pleading with you, for the love of God, get rid of Jon Tester and get rid of Joe Manchin.
Joe Manchin is the reason we have this happening right now.
Because of the reconciliation process, you can get something like this passed as long as it's a spending bill in order to break the 60-vote threshold inside of the filibuster in the Senate.
So that's what's happening right now.
So you get...
It's called a reconciliation process where you can...
Pass it with a simple majority, 51 votes, and avoid a filibuster, which Republicans would be able to then filibuster every other piece of legislation.
Democrats get just a few bullets in the chamber for reconciliation, and they used it on this one, and Kamala Harris was the tie-breaking vote for this bill.
The bill, once again, spends nearly a trillion dollars, $739 billion, that goes after climate change and funds the Affordable Care Act.
And fixes healthcare.
What does that mean?
Well, I saw a great comment this morning from economist Stephen Moore, who worked in the Trump White House, saying that the Inflation Reduction Act will reduce inflation the way that the Affordable Care Act made healthcare more affordable.
You see, what they do is they take buzzwords and terminology, Democrats do, and then they couch it.
Inside of an issue that people care about right now.
Inflation is one of those issues.
So how does spending a trillion dollars on liberal elitist pet projects help inflation?
As Milton Friedman would say, the only way you get inflation, the only way that inflation could possibly be caused, is through the federal government.
You don't create inflation.
I don't create inflation.
Businesses don't create inflation.
Saudi sheiks don't create inflation.
Chinese communists don't create inflation.
The only thing that creates inflation in our economy is the spending and printing of money from Washington, D.C. That's how you get inflation.
That and that alone.
Those are the only people who can create inflation.
So how does spending and manufacturing another trillion dollars help inflation?
Well, it doesn't, actually.
And the experts have said so.
The experts...
Not including Bernie Sanders, who's an expert in absolutely nothing, an expert only on being like an old dirtbag sack of newspaper socialist wandering around.
I say sack of newspaper socialist because I used to walk to work in Washington, D.C. and see Bernie Sanders.
He looks like a homeless man who lives inside of a bus stop.
And Bernie Sanders would always have a plastic bag of newspapers walking down the streets.
And it turns out that Bernie Sanders was stealing his neighbor's newspapers.
Go check in.
On the Washington Post, they have an article about it.
About how his neighbors had to send him a cease and desist because Bernie Sanders, the old decrepit, sleazebag, dandruffy socialist from Vermont, who's never had a real job in his life, doddering down the street, swagger jacking people's newspapers, stealing their property.
Classic communist move.
But even Bernie Sanders, I want to take a moment to say a few words about the so
bernie sanders
-called Inflation Reduction Act that we are debating.
This evening.
And I say so-called, by the way, because according to the CBO and other economic organizations who have studied this bill, it will in fact have a minimal impact on inflation.
benny johnson
Well, so there you go.
Well, I mean, like, listen, if Bernie Sanders is the guy who's coming at you and saying this is a lie, you got a major issue.
Bernie, of course, voted for it because Bernie Sanders wants the federal government to spend and spend and spend as much money as humanly possible because that is Bernie's worldview.
Bernie Sanders is a communist.
He wants the federal government to be as powerful as possible and he wants to be able to crush all small industries.
Bernie Sanders would love it if...
The federal government took over your industry.
Where do you work?
Chances are you don't work for the federal government.
They haven't been able to hire their 87,000 new IRS agents.
And so Bernie Sanders would like for the government to take over Benny Media LLC.
They would like for the federal government to be able to take over this show.
To take over everything.
Bernie Sanders loves this kind of spending.
Of its $700 billion spent, $396 billion goes to climate change initiatives.
Ha!
I wonder who's in charge of that.
I wonder what that means, climate change initiatives.
I wonder who's getting rich off that.
How many of those companies does Nancy Pelosi currently own?
$64 billion goes to fund the Affordable Care Act, because that's what you wanted.
More Obamacare spending.
More Obamacare spending.
Get ready.
Democrats claim the size of the bill's budget will be made up by a 15% corporate minimum tax.
They're going to tax you more to spend.
The massive spending package raises taxes for everybody, except those making between $10,000 and $30,000 a year.
Those are Joe Biden supporters.
Those are the...
Those are the voters of the Democrat Party who do not make anything, who do not create anything, and who live off welfare.
That's it.
Do you think the IRS hassles those people?
They don't have anything to report.
They probably haven't done their taxes ever.
That's the Democrat base.
That is consistently and now perpetually the Democrat base.
Joe Biden promised he would never raise a penny of taxes on anybody making less than $400,000 a year, remember?
unidentified
I guarantee a promise.
I've never broken my word.
Anyone making less than $400,000 will not see one single penny in their tax raised.
President Biden breaking his promise not to raise taxes on the middle class.
The Senate Democrats look to fast-track a bill that multiple now nonpartisan experts say would raise taxes on nearly all Americans.
I give you my word as to Biden, no one making less than $400,000 a year will see a penny in their taxes raised.
benny johnson
That compilation made by the RNC, Joe Biden has lied to you.
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris cackled all the way after lying to you.
I have a thought on exactly why this is happening and exactly why they are doing this.
I worked for a long time in Washington, D.C., and I know that the chambers of power, when they change, the party that knows that they are doomed is going to then throw Hail Marys in an attempt to...
Pay off as many people as they possibly can in order to attempt to desperately either stay in power or to continue to get the money flowing into their bank accounts because, remember, the last time they were in power, they took care of you.
This is what's happening right now currently.
The Democrat Party is not spending all this money on...
Climate change.
They're spending all this money on their own personal donors in order to gorge their PACs and their C3s and C4 operations with American taxpayer dollars.
Where do you think these billions of dollars are going to go?
They're going to go into Democrat organizations.
And trust me, the climate change organizations that are getting funded through this are going to be knocking doors for Democrats.
This is a payout to themselves and to their own corruption.
And they are doing this not out of an act of strength.
They're doing this out of an act of desperation.
They're doing this because they know that they will not have these chambers for probably the rest of the decade.
And hopefully they won't have these chambers.
The White House, being the chamber I'm talking about now, as you watch Joe Biden, who leaves quarantine, who was leaving quarantine yesterday, he went immediately to vacation.
There he goes.
Immediately off to vacation.
This is the leadership currently in our country.
So they spend a trillion dollars during the weekend in the dark of night when they know no one else is paying attention.
They cackle and laugh in your face as they raise your taxes and lie to you.
They hire an army of IRS agents to harass you and hurt you.
And they lie to you, calling this the Inflation Reduction Act when it does absolutely no such thing.
Sam, can we play clip number one one more time of Kamala cackling?
Now it's very faint, but listen.
Dear viewer, listen to Kamala Harris literally cackle while she raises your taxes and hires an army to harass you and put you in prison.
kamala harris
On this vote, the yeas are 50, the nays are 50. The Senate being equally divided, the vice president votes in the affirmative, and the bill as amended is passed.
unidentified
Thank you.
benny johnson
Sear that into the back of your brain, okay?
Like, take a branding iron and sear that into the back of your skull.
Remember that when you show up and vote.
And we have some really good information on, some very good data on exactly how many Republicans are showing up to vote and how we are going to overwhelm them in November.
And the reason why they're doing this, again, is an act of desperation.
They're scared.
They know that they're not going to have the Senate.
They know they're not going to have the House.
And they know they're probably going to lose, for a generation, Democrat supporters by doing this.
The Democrat Party is dying.
The Democrat Party may very well at this moment be dead.
The Democrat Party is becoming more white and more elitist and more rich.
All the numbers show that.
Republicans, on the other hand, are turning into the party of the working class and minorities.
The Republicans are actually the party that has usurped and absorbed the working class person.
Go talk to a truck driver or a plumber.
Go ahead and talk to a farmer or somebody who works with their hands every single day.
And they will tell you to your face that while they may have been Democrats, they are now turning into Republicans.
I had this happen this weekend at my house.
I was hosting some of my neighbors for dinner and they work inside of the medical industry.
One of them is a doctor and one of them is a lawyer.
And they both call themselves DeSantis Democrats.
That is the new hybrid Republican that we are seeing a phenomenon happening across the country because of things like this.
There's only so much that can happen.
People that work with their hands vote Republicans.
People that actually work, not even with your hands, vote Republicans.
Somebody who works with his hands every single week is back in the saddle.
His name's Sam.
Sam Cam may come back up.
unidentified
We'll see.
benny johnson
Is the Sam Cam?
Is the Sam Cam on?
Everybody say hi to Sam.
Sam is back from his honeymoon.
We pre-recorded a lot of content last week, and that's why you saw some very interesting content moving around last week, some interviews in there.
Sam Cam is back from his honeymoon.
Congratulations on the happy honeymoon, Sam.
And the only reason that Sam has the cash in his pocket in order to take a honeymoon, get married, start a family, live the American dream, is because Sam...
Ain't no socialist.
Sam ain't down with these policies.
He works, and he doesn't want the federal government to spend like drunken sailors in a whorehouse, which, by the way, is a major insult to sailors who may drink a little too much and may need a little bit of time offshore.
We don't mean to offend you, okay?
I respect drunken sailors in a whorehouse far more than I respect Democrats.
And by the way, hey, listen, you know.
Say what you will about Kamala Harris.
That cackle that she did there while voting to increase your taxes.
Ladies and gentlemen, that is gold for the Republican Party.
We should thank her for that.
That needs to be used in every single ad.
From here until eternity.
That's the moment.
People need to seize on this.
That's the moment.
We tweeted it last night.
It has like 10,000 retweets.
That's the moment.
Republicans, take that, clip it, and run it in every single ad ever.
That is a gift to us.
Kamala Harris cackling while she raises our taxes, blows out our inflation, spends more, increases the federal government, kills American jobs, kills the oil industry.
What do you think the message this is going to send to the oil industry?
They're already shutting down refineries all around the country.
What do you think this message is going to send to our energy development here in America?
That they're spending, how much of it?
It was $369 billion.
Goes to climate change initiatives in order to crush American energy production.
These people.
So the experts, not just Bernie Sanders and his bag of newspapers, but the experts are coming through and saying, ah, ah, ah, ah, not so much.
This is actually the worst thing you could possibly do right now inside of an inflationary recession spiral that we are in currently.
Moody's Analytics Chief Economist Mark Zanotti noted that the bill would only marginally reduce the consumer price index as an economic gauge and the consumer prices would actually increase.
And the savings would be slim.
Maybe you would see a decline at the end of the decade.
Washington Post straight up admitting this on their front page.
This is the front page story of the Washington Post.
Now, the Washington Post has been lying to you, calling this the Inflation Reduction Act for the last, I don't know, couple weeks.
The reason why is because the corporate media wears the jersey of the Democrat Party.
They want to lie to you.
Now, if Republicans were building the wall, let's say, and they called it the Open Border Act, And Republicans built the wall.
What would happen, so the Republicans do something and then they call it the exact opposite of what they're doing.
What would happen is you'd have fascist experts on CNN day and night talking about how this is how democracy dies.
How this is how fascistic regimes start.
This is the end of our republic as it stands.
You'd have fact checks from every single outlet.
Republicans would never be able to go on without a chyron saying, you know, the Open Borders Act, parentheses, they're lying.
Remember how they used to do that with Trump?
Well, now that it's been passed through the Senate, which is the big issue, the big chamber that you have to get this thing through, because I think it's going to fly through the House.
We'll see.
We'll see how many people are suicidal in the House of Representatives.
You'd have to be suicidal as a Democrat to vote for this.
It'll have to get marked up.
It'll have to get a vote.
We'll see what they do to it in the House.
But Washington Post, now that it's been passed, says straight up, this is not an inflation reduction act.
Why the inflation reduction act is no such thing.
One of the more enduring facilities in forming discussion on the economy is that there are a couple of dials located in a vault somewhere in Washington where officials can turn on or control employment output and inflation, even the price of gasoline.
Anytime something good happens, some politicians inevitably step forward to claim credit for having got the dials just right.
And anytime something bad happens, you can be sure that the media and political opponents will blame the officials for the wrong settings.
That's what happened earlier this year, when the inflation began to take off under President Trump's first term.
I'm sorry, under President Biden.
First term, Congress and Federal Reserve were criticized for oversimulating the economy in response to the pandemic.
We heard it again and again late last month.
The domestic product triggering dire and exaggerating predictions, recessions and Republicans, and now Democrats in Congress are embracing the same fallacy as they ram through a package of climate change, tax, care, climate, tax, and health care incentives fantasifully marketed at the Inflation Reduction Act.
This is insane.
This is from the Washington Post.
Who wrote this?
unidentified
This is...
benny johnson
Just bananas.
Given the pre-pandemic prosperity was already dependent on a large dose of fiscal and monetary stimulus, it should have come as no surprise that the pumping of trillions of dollars in added stimulus over the next two years would lead to rising prices and wages.
Indeed, that point of these rescue efforts to prevent a deflationary spiral set the floor under household income, stimulate investment, and prop up prices of stocks Bank loans and real estate.
In hindsight, it's clear that policymakers ignored warnings and overdid it.
But it is equally true that the economic policy is not science, and that the global economy is not a system that can be controlled by a couple of dials in Washington.
The Congressional Budget Office estimates that over the next two years the Inflation Reduction Act is likely to change the inflation rates by less than one tenth of one percent.
They lied to you.
They lied to you in passing of this bill.
And even more malevolent, in case you're wondering whether this is just incompetence or malevolence, even more malevolent is this.
They used the crisis of inflation, that is, breaking the back of the American worker, and we hear it every single day on the show, they used the crisis of inflation as a prerequisite to create more inflation.
So they called this the Inflation Reduction Act.
Joe Manchin, walking into Chuck Schumer's office.
Hey, why the hell is spending $700 billion going to increase or decrease inflation?
It's not going to.
Chuck Schumer, well, we'll just call it the Inflation Reduction Act, Joe.
Joe Biden, Joe Manchin, oh, okay, that sounds great.
Joe Biden, oh, okay, that sounds great.
Got it.
You got my support.
West Virginia, get rid of this man.
He is scum.
West Virginia, stand up.
Protest Joe Manchin wherever he goes.
Make him the most hated man in your state.
Get him out.
He is voting against your interests.
We spent a lot of time in West Virginia.
We've actually done documentaries on and inside of coal mines in West Virginia.
Some of the best people I've ever met.
Some of the kindest, warmest-hearted people I've ever met.
Some of the best moonshine I've ever drank.
These people are awesome.
Joe Manchin's only job is to sit there and to support those industries, coal mining industries, and he just voted to spend $700 billion on climate change, which is going to destroy West Virginia.
Not that it already doesn't have its own problems in West Virginia.
These people are malevolent.
They do not have your best interests in mind.
They have your worst interests in mind.
And even the Washington Post is straight up saying so.
Even over the next five years, according to the Committee for Responsible Federal Budget, the package moving through Congress would reduce the federal budget deficit by a piddling $25 billion, a rounding error for the $23 trillion economy.
Regardless of the final number, the measure will hardly dent an annual federal budget deficit projected to run at a rate of 5% GDP over the next 10 years.
In short, a healthy, sustainable economy is not one that requires government officials to constantly and dramatically be adjusting macroeconomic dials in Washington to balance.
Rather, it is one that relies more on natural, self-correcting mechanisms of open, competitive, and well-regulated markets.
Clearly, ladies and gentlemen, what you have here is a situation where the party in charge It's simply panicking.
They're desperate.
They have to get one final bill through Congress to pay off their donors before they're out of power.
This is how Washington, D.C. works.
And guess what?
It's a big party and you ain't invited.
It's never about you, the American people.
There are 17,000 concurrent ongoing fires right now all across the country that are burning this country to the ground and they don't give a damn about you.
Democrats reject ban on middle class tax hike in Inflation Reduction Act.
Oh, interesting.
This from Breitbart.
Senate Democrats on a party line vote rejected an amendment to their Inflation Reduction Act that would ban the IRS from being used to go after middle class Americans, in case you were wondering.
Who do middle class Americans vote for?
What do middle class Americans believe?
Well, the opposite of what the Democrat Party believes.
So they're going to now harass you.
If you didn't break into the Capitol on January 6th, They had their way with those people.
Now they're going to come after you, who didn't happen to be there on January 6th.
They're just going to come after you every single year when you file your taxes.
On Sunday, Senate Democrats passed the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes $80 billion for the IRS to target working class American households, squeezed already by inflation with more audits.
The Joint Committee on Taxation has reported 78 to 90% of the taxpayer money raised via new audits and investigations as a result of legislation would come from American households earning less than $200,000 a year.
That is the vast majority of American households.
Meanwhile, under 49% is expected to come from households earning more than $500,000 a year.
Mike Crapo offered an amendment that would ban The IRS funds from being used to target Americans making less than $400,000 annually, essentially an amendment to make Joe Biden a truth-teller, not a liar, because Joe Biden promised not to do this.
The amendment was rejected by Senate Democrats on a party-line vote.
So Democrats, with the vote of Kamala Harris, were striking down a plan, an amendment.
That says that the IRS cannot use this new $80 billion in funding to go after you.
And Democrats said, uh-uh.
You see, that's the game here.
Hold on.
Record scratch.
Wait a second.
That's what we're planning on doing.
Why would we vote for this?
This is the point.
The point is to go after you.
We're going to weaponize the federal government.
I swear to God, ladies and gentlemen, if the next Republican Congress Does not defund this and then begin to strip mine the IRS, the FBI, the Department of Justice, the federal agencies, and properly defund our government?
I mean, you're talking a revolution inside of the Republican Party.
You already have one, and we're going to get to the Arizona results here in just a moment.
Democrats poised to spend $3.5 trillion during historic inflation with Republican help.
Also, according to Breitbart.com, of course, Republicans joined with Democrats, locked arms, and sang like the Who's of Whoville on Christmas morning.
They passed an infrastructure plan, a $3 trillion infrastructure plan, $1.9 trillion America Recovery Act, that Mitch McConnell and Republicans joined.
with Democrats in order to pass.
Never forget that.
Mitch McConnell needs to resign.
Mitch McConnell needs to be out of a job.
Mitch McConnell needs to go the way of all endangered turtles.
He needs to You can catch Mitch McConnell in the third Finding Nemo film.
That's where he belongs, ladies and gentlemen.
Mitch McConnell handed Joe Biden his biggest Congressional victory.
And then Republicans went ahead and handed Joe Biden another massive victory on gun control, with John Cornyn passing gun control.
Remember, a lot, the other 50-50 Senate, so virtually all of these wins have to be with Republican support.
$550 billion for so-called Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
$280 billion for creating helpful incentives to promote semi-conductors, the CHIPS bill, to get Nancy Pelosi an absolute crap ton of vodka for her bar off the dividends that she is going to make off of these bills.
$700 billion for the Inflation Reduction Act.
I mean, it's...
If you're a fan of 1984 and George Orwell, this would be called DoubleThink.
This would be called DoubleThink.
DoubleThink is systematically and concurrently holding...
Two conflicting ideas at the same time?
The Inflation Reduction Act that spends another trillion dollars that we don't have.
As Politico noted, these expenditures amount to roughly $3.5 trillion to address leftist priorities.
And is going to lead to total and complete economic disaster and fallout.
And quite frankly, Republicans only have themselves to blame.
Sadly, because Democrats, we know they're going to do this.
So Republicans need to send Republicans to the Senate.
You need to send Republicans to Congress.
You gotta support J.D. Vance.
You gotta support Blake Masters.
You gotta support Adam Laxalt in Nevada.
We must win the Senate, ladies and gentlemen.
We must stop the madness.
As if there isn't enough problems in this country, and with the passage of another trillion dollars in money we don't have, setting the dumpster on fire of our economy even further, Joe Biden decided to get on a plane, wobble out of isolation that he had been in for seven days.
In his COVID isolation.
And head for another vacation.
That makes 41 vacations for Joe Biden to Delaware.
Joe Biden getting out of Dodge.
There you go.
See you later.
Took no questions.
Did no Q&A.
Didn't talk to anyone.
Stopped there.
Every time you watch him walk, you're like just praying he doesn't trip and fall directly on his face.
unidentified
Hit a pile of...
benny johnson
Pit a massive dog turd from his German Shepherd there and just land directly on his face.
Joe Biden flees Washington, D.C. We think we may know why.
We think we may know why.
We'll see.
Hunter Biden, massive bombshells breaking about Joe Biden and what may become of the Biden family.
We'll be covering in detail on tomorrow's show.
Joe Biden fleed Washington, D.C., went to Delaware.
The first lady, Jill Biden, has been in Delaware for two weeks as Joe Biden has been isolating from coronavirus.
Isolating because of his coronavirus and a rebound case of coronavirus.
So Joe Biden got coronavirus two times.
So there you go.
I wonder if he gets a discount, if he has a punch card.
I mean, Dr. Dr. Fauci, who created the coronavirus, like maybe there's a punch card somewhere and he gets a $5 footlong at the end of it for free.
Who knows, ladies and gentlemen, maybe they could fill that footlong with ice cream for old Joe.
Joe Biden was in coronavirus quarantine with his dog, Commander.
So I think that sounds like animal abuse to me.
Donald Trump over the weekend said that the next president must remove rogue bureaucrats and root out the deep state, a beautiful thing to see and say, and this is how you win 40 states in 2024.
Take it away, Donald Trump.
donald j trump
As we secure the border, another key priority for the next Congress and the next president will be to drain the swamp once and for all.
unidentified
Thank you.
donald j trump
To remove rogue bureaucrats and root out the deep state, Congress should pass groundbreaking reforms, empowering the president to ensure that any federal employee who is corrupt, incompetent, or unnecessary for the job can be told, "You're fired." You ever hear that?

You're fired.
Yeah, fired.

Donald Trump, of course, is remaking the 2016 campaign energy.
We've told you many times on this show, Donald Trump is running for president.
Our sources say that he is absolutely running and that the biggest question right now is whether he announces that he's going to be running before the midterms or after.
According to some conversations we had this weekend that will probably be after, based on Donald Trump's seeing his candidates win, seeing that the people that he's endorsing are winning in record-setting numbers.
And as we covered in the weeks before this show, Schedule F is here, ladies and gentlemen, and ready to stay.
Donald Trump, of course, bringing back the you're fired comment there and talking about gutting the administrative...
Donald Trump's comments come after recent reports asserted that Trump would use his Schedule F executive order to fire 50,000 federal government bureaucrats.
Donald Trump seemingly confirmed these reports when he spoke at Turning Point USA's Student Action Summit last month.
We were there, and it was delicious.
Trump said in a lengthy He said that the lengthy time frame dissuades other politicians from starting the bureaucrat removal process because it takes longer than their terms in office.
So what Trump is going to do with Schedule F is decrease...
The amount of time it takes to fire these people by redefining the positions, by redefining how their positions are categorized, right?
And Trump will win this fight.
He has some very, very smart people working for him.
We know a lot of them.
We are in regular communications with them.
And as Steve Bannon said this weekend at CPAC, the team, the band is back together again.
And unlike in 2016, where you didn't really...
They weren't planning on winning in 2016 and they didn't have an operation in order to take place as soon as they had won.
They had to build it from the ground up.
These people are going to be there not just on day one, but they've been working.
They've been readying the D-Day landings and they're going to storm the beaches on day one.
You have an assault team ready to go and those people have looked into this and this is how you got the administrative state.
And the GOP is down for it.
The base is down for it.
In Arizona, record numbers of GOP voters showed up for the primary election.
After the passing of election integrity laws.
Amazing how that works.
Arizona had their primary last Tuesday.
We had to wait until Thursday evening, late Thursday evening, in order to hear the results of the gubernatorial primary.
Carrie Lake wins.
Blake Master wins.
A bunch of people down ballot won.
Friends of the show.
And we're very excited to announce that we'll be having Carrie Lake on this week for a live Q&A.

But then we will ask Carrie Lake your questions.

Because that really helps us gain in momentum.
It's a free thing you can do to support what we do.
And supporting what we do is certainly, certainly in line with what happened in Arizona.
As you saw the greatest turnout in history in Arizona.
And also 57% of all turnout went for the Republicans.
So that is just going to show, that's just dominance.
Dominance on that front when it...
When it comes to the November election.
So if this is going to be pulled out and extrapolated for the November elections and the general, if you have this kind of enthusiasm for Republicans right now in the state, then they are just going to crush Katie Hobbs and crush the George Soros left and the Democrat and communist left in the November elections.
It's going to be an absolute thing of being.
According to Fox News, Republicans vote outnumbered Democrats' votes by 157,000 as of Thursday at 8.15 p.m. in the gubernatorial primaries.
17% of the vote count was still out.
So this is absolutely the largest turnout for Republicans in history in this state.
We commend you, Arizona.
You're taking back your state.
It's such a beautiful thing to see.
It's freedom-minded.
It's liberty-minded.
It's just the energy is incredible.
God bless all of you.
The reason why we need turnout is because we need to turn out the Bidens from the White House.
Joe Biden...
Did meet with Chinese energy executives in league with his son Hunter.
We're going to be covering this more in depth tomorrow.
We're going to be doing a big look into all of Hunter Biden's crimes.
But the 15th meeting now on record.
For a businessman tied to Hunter Biden that were able to sit down and meet with Joe Biden inside of the executive branch while he was vice president, two Chinese businessmen who have ties to Hunter Biden met with Joe Biden inside of the White House and then sent fawning emails.
The way this worked was simple.
It is very hard to get meetings inside of the White House, as you can imagine.
These are things that happen for people who curry favor with the party in charge.
Occurred here was that Hunter Biden was the bag man for this operation.
You would pay Hunter Biden and then you get meetings with chief executives inside of the executive branch.
It's called pay for play.
It is totally illegal.
It's completely immoral.
And Hunter Biden did it and he did it and got rich doing it.
And there were no investigations up until this point.
Now there are going to be an absolute rainfall of investigations, a monsoon that hopefully will wash away the corrupt Bidens forever and put them in prison.
Chinese executives for an energy company, Wan Zhang, security meeting with the Vice President and the West Wing on July of 2014.
This was just with one day's notice, according to the White House visitors' logs.
The client of Hunter Biden's company, Seneca Global Advisors, partnered with Wan Zhang in 2012 to create a $1.5 billion natural gas plant in China.
In case you're wondering, The Hunter Biden enterprise was to build up the Joe Biden enterprise, because it was all of the direction of Joe Biden, was to build up the energy supplies and to build up the resources of America's geopolitical enemies, whether that be Russia, whether that be China, whoever that may be.
Whoever was paying them the cash, baby, the money.
Follow the money.
And now Joe Biden's entire sole purpose, including...
With the bill that just passed is to destroy American energy so that we are utterly dependent upon them for everything.
And it will eventually atrophy and destroy this country.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's nefarious.
Truly.
It is malevolent.
And it is by design.
This is why we fight.
So the Chinese communists met with Joe Biden.
We know this now.
It's cataloged in Hunter Biden's emails.
And it's cataloged inside of the White House visitor logs.
And now is panic time.
Now you can see the reason why Joe Biden was installed here is that they had leverage over him.
They knew that Joe Biden had criminality in his past and that at any time they could use that chit and they could destroy him.
As soon as Joe Biden was of no more use to the regime, they will destroy Joe Biden.
And so that is why you are now starting to see the media turn on Joe Biden.
A shocking clip from this weekend.
Brian Stelter.
Of CNN straight up saying, hey, yo, this Hunter Biden story is not a right-wing media smear.
This is not going away.
This is going to destroy the Biden regime, and it's going to lead to indictments.
It's going to lead to criminal probes.
And here's CNN, the company that pretty much wrote the PR game plan and operates as the professional PR agency for Joe Biden, the Democrat Party, turning on him.
Read the tea leaves.
unidentified
Run, I haven't heard the reason why.
benny johnson
What about Hunter?
donald j trump
Hunter under federal investigation.
Charges could be coming at any time.
This is not just a right-wing media story.
This is a real problem for the Bidens.
benny johnson
Could he decide not to run for re-election, given his son?
unidentified
Look, they make decisions as a family, and they will make that decision when it's time.
Do you think they've talked about it yet?
No.
The president's doing his job.
He's doing his work.
He's not focused on that.
It's 19 months.
Why would he be doing that?
donald j trump
Okay, so you're saying the press is getting ahead of...
unidentified
Way ahead.
Way ahead.
Look, there's more work to do.
It's been 19 months.
And, you know, he intends to run, like you said.
But I think we, I think...
I think the focus should be, from the press, on how what he is doing is affecting people out in the country.
Because these are things that Democrats have wanted to get done for a long time, and in just a week, veterans manufacturing the unemployment rate.
It's been remarkable to see a president rack up so many substantive wins, as even your anchors have noted in the last year.
That's the guy who quit Jill Biden's staff last week.
benny johnson
That's Michael LaRosa.
Oh my gosh, so cringe.
Please put that guy more on television.
So bad.
What a bunch of amateurs.
You saw him sweating there and his lispy, nervous tics.
He knows they have no wind.
They have nothing.
And here you have Brian Seltzer straight up giving up the game.
The game was always that when Joe Biden became That's inconvenient and damaging to the Democrat Party.
They were going to turn on him.
They were going to use his criminality and his business dealings to eradicate him from the White House, to kick him out, and to pressure him into not running.
That's what's happening here.
Brian Stelter, simply a waterboy, lackey, patorian guard for the corporate press, doing exactly the janitor work of CNN and the DNC media, corporate media apparatchik.
It is...
Ladies and gentlemen, a savage move for the Bidens because without the corporate media, they have no election chances.
You have no hope.
Because they're the ones who ran Joe Biden in the first place when Joe Biden was sitting in his basement for the entire campaign.
And they're the people who can now destroy Joe Biden.
So it'll be interesting to see what happens.
And we'll be covering it all here on The Benny Show.
We just want to thank you all for watching.
We are back online.
We are back live.
Get ready.
Carrie Lake this week.
It's going to be awesome.
We are here, ladies and gentlemen.
And we are here for the right reasons.
God, family, country.
Those are the things that motivate us.
We were born free men and women.
We intend to stay that way.
So please, ladies and gentlemen, stay free.
