Speaker Time Text
unidentified
Because there are so many Republicans now that are...
Putting their hat in the ring.
They want to be the next Speaker of the House, including Jim Jordan.
You know, he was on Sean Hannity's show the other night, and he said, I don't know what's up to the conference.
He said Steve Scalise would make a good one, and now he is actually campaigning.
He's sending a letter out touting his work to pass the HR2 and touting his work leading the Oversight Committee.
And he says, I respectfully ask for your support for Speaker of the House.
Also, Steve Scalise wants that job, and he was posting on X. There's also, we said Jim Jordan, Trump has said that he would be open to it.
There's Kevin Hearn, who's a Republican from Oklahoma.
And there's Patrick McHenry, who is the interim speaker right now, Speaker Pro Tem.
And then there's Tom Cole, the House Rules Committee chair.
steve doocy
And speaking of rules, one thing, the Republican Main Street Caucus, which has 68 members, they made it very clear that before anybody votes for a speaker, they've got to change that rule that allows one person to vote on vacating.
That essentially is how Matt Gase was able to lead this Capitol coup on Tuesday night.
So that's one of the first things they're going to do.
Also, you know, it's interesting how many people have suggested Donald Trump as Speaker.
Donald Trump himself was asked a little bit about it.
He said this yesterday here in New York City.
unidentified
A lot of people have been calling me about a speaker.
All I can say is we'll do whatever's best for the country and for the Republican Party.
Would you take a job?
benny johnson
A lot of people have asked me about it.
unidentified
I'm focused.
You know, we're leading.
I don't know.
I'm sure you know me too much in the papers.
But we're leading by like 50 points for president.
My focus is totally on that.
If I could help them during the process, I would do it.
Chair declares the house in recess, subject to the call of the chair.
Uh-huh, this my shit.
All the girls don't be feed like this.
'Cause there ain't no Hollaback girl, there ain't no-Yeah, hey, don't do it.
benny johnson
This is the Banny Show.
Donald Trump speaker, let's go!
Today is Thursday, October 5th, 2023.
unidentified
The search for a new speaker continues!
benny johnson
Shall our show endorse?
Maybe we'll do it live, baby.
Donald Trump, Jim Jordan, somebody else?
Joe Biden?
This demanded briefing on Hunter Biden's criminal case days after entering office, and now Joe Biden is building Donald Trump's wall.
We told you it was happening.
If you watch this show, you were like 60 days early to this news cycle.
Everyone's like, oh, Joe Biden's building the wall!
We told you about this months ago, and we will prove it, baby.
I am not above spiking the football.
In fact, it's one of my favorite things to do.
And Congressman Troy Nels joins the show.
Troy Nels.
The great Texas congressman, who is officially nominating Donald Trump as speaker, he will be on to explain.
Explain what's gonna happen.
Donald Trump, speaker, let's go, baby!
My name is Benny Johnson, and this is The Benny Show.
Did you get that notification yesterday?
The COVID-19 virus shoved directly into your phone, whatever the government was doing yesterday?
Did you get that?
Yeah, okay.
This is the time, ladies and gentlemen, to be using silent.
Guess where my phone was?
Guess where my phone was yesterday when that alert went off?
It was in these Faraday sleeves that stop all wireless signaling.
That shuts down my phone where it cannot be pinged.
And actually, I didn't get a notification.
So it's pretty awesome.
Actually, ladies and gentlemen, you should use Silent today.
Not only to protect you from wireless signals that you don't want, but also to protect you from radiation that we know cell phones have.
Ladies and gentlemen, I use Silent every single night.
It's a light, portable, Faraday sleeve for your mobile device.
It protects you and your privacy and your security and your health.
Use Silent to block harmful radiation and wireless signals.
Go to Silent, slnt.com slash Benny.
Save 15% and shipping on free 15% I don't know.
What do you guys think about that?
What do you think about that?
I saw a lot of people, a lot of commentary on the new messaging alert.
From the government.
How did the government just ping all of our phones at the same time?
The most compelling thing that I saw was from a constitutional lawyer saying, wait a second, this is like an unreasonable search and seizure.
This is blatantly unconstitutional.
Because what the government just did was get a ping back from all of our phones.
I mean, real talk here, Fourth Amendment, Third Amendment, this is basic unconstitutionality.
They just did a search warrant on you.
They just did a warrantless search of your personal property.
That's what just happened.
Because your phone just pinged the government.
Back.
I heard a lot of people saying that they shut their phones off, and then when they turned their phones on, they got the alert as soon as they turned their phones on.
Ladies and gentlemen, scary, scary times.
People know that there is something, like, amiss in our society.
People know that there's something deeply wrong in our society and with the systems that govern us.
That is why you are seeing upheaval in the House.
I want to calm the waters here and say, stop worrying.
Stop worrying and learn to embrace the bomb.
Okay?
How I stop...
Dr. Strangelove.
How I stop worrying and learn to love the bomb.
Learn to love the bomb.
The American political process is supposed to be absolutely messy.
It is supposed to be slow.
It is supposed to be calcified.
It is supposed to be able to be ground to a halt by a single member.
There's an old movie called Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.
It's a classic!
Where Jimmy Stewart...
Wanders in and, like, dumps all his constituency mail at the floor of the House, right?
And the House members actually sat in their chairs.
This movie was made 80 years ago.
It's a classic because it shows that one man can make a difference in Washington, D.C. Now, we're not trying to idealize any person here, but the way our system is designed is that when something is wrong, and when a system of corruption is failing, we have intrinsic weapons.
As a populace, to pull the lever, to break the glass, and to say, this sucks!
That is actually the pressure release valve for a population.
Because what the elites actually want is oppressed versus oppressor.
Victims versus victimizers.
They want a binary in our society.
They want an underclass, and they want all of us to be in it.
These are the same people that brought us chattel slavery in the advent of America, and they're the same people that brought us reverse slavery today.
Racial inequality today.
The Great Society.
Lyndon Baines Johnson.
Shame on the society that allowed for affirmative action to actually take root some 70 years ago, far before I was born.
We allowed for actual racism.
We had like one year where we had the Civil Rights Act, and everyone says, okay, we're all equal, before the Democratic Party decided to then flip it.
Now a society that was unequal towards minorities now became unequal towards white people.
And now we are living, of course, in the end stage of that ideology.
It's sick.
They must have destruction, they must destroy the middle class, and they must destroy what it means to be an American.
That's why they're perfectly happy to fund Ukraine's borders and not our own.
Even Joe Biden's breaking on that this morning.
But what I'm asking for you here is some patience.
I actually have learned to love this process.
It is a little scary when you take the speaker away, when there's a little, oh, it's chaos.
It's chaos right now in the Republican Party.
Nope, it's not.
It's just the Republican Party.
We still have the capacity for free thought.
We still have the capacity to question our leaders.
AOC won her seat.
In 2018, by saying she wouldn't vote for Nancy Pelosi.
Nancy Pelosi is so unpopular.
What happens when AOC gets to Congress?
unidentified
Oh, yes, please, Nancy, what can I do?
benny johnson
Let me clean out the inside of your martini glass with my tongue.
Let me lick your tongue.
Anything I can do.
What can I do?
Can I polish Paul's hammers?
Anything.
I'll do anything for you.
unidentified
At least we have the capacity for free thought still.
benny johnson
And that's wonderful.
Because that's actually the way we were designed as a country.
This was a good thing.
And we're fighting it out, and we're trying to revolt against the Borg, the globalist hive mind Borg, that says that Ukrainians are more important than American taxpayers, that we essentially are just tax cattle that live in an economic zone.
There is no such thing as an American.
There is no such thing as principles.
There is no such thing as God.
It's good to revolt against that.
And the people who uphold that system.
That system is cancer.
And so be proud, actually, of your party.
I am deeply proud to be a Republican today.
Probably more proud than I've ever been.
It is a beautiful thing to question our systems.
People instinctually know this.
This is why you see shocking clips like this.
When Donald Trump was fingerprinted, mugshot taken, In Fulton County, Georgia, Donald Trump, they had done everything that they possibly could to make sure that they humiliated Donald Trump.
And they give him the mugshot, you know, got him hanging right here in the studio.
They blew it up, put it up on the wall.
It looks small.
This is actually like a three-foot-tall mugshot.
Donald Trump, they do everything they can to humiliate him.
They do everything they can to make sure that he is, you know, untouchable, right, by the general population.
And what?
Does that...
What result does that bring?
Well, why don't we watch...
And it's a cliff worth playing every single show.
Why don't we watch Donald Trump driving through the streets of some of the poorest, most impoverished areas of Atlanta?
Certainly not MAGA country.
And let's see, how was he received?
How was Donald Trump received?
unidentified
Y'all see it, man.
What's on his hand, though?
What's on the front?
Where you talking?
I'm talking about they got everybody.
Look at that falling down.
benny johnson
Three, my N-word, Trump.
I don't say the N-word on the show.
I don't say the N-word ever.
I'm just quoting the video.
That's the man.
The man said it.
They were cheering for him.
Cheering him as he drove through the city.
You cannot kill an idea.
Rome was an idea.
Donald Trump is now an idea.
An idea that the way that we've done business in this country that has leveraged out, not just the future of our grandkids, but our great-grandchildren, $33 trillion in debt, the debt has doubled.
Every president.
It doubled under George Bush.
It doubled under Barack Obama.
And it went sky-high under Trump, too.
That was on the decline.
You can see it was like dipping.
Things were going right.
And then, of course, Dr. Fauci and COVID and the CIA.
And the Wuhan laboratory.
And the funding of the creation of COVID.
But it's now, like, utterly confirmed.
And then Dr. Fauci being brought into the CIA to cover it all up.
Patriot Act!
It's a totally different...
That's a totally different topic, but anyway.
Ladies and gentlemen, there is a man versus the machine.
The machine has broken.
Our futures have been leveraged.
Our borders are war zones.
Our elites have sold us out.
And there is a great sense of this throughout the country.
And I don't care what color, what political stripe you are.
I don't care where you come from.
I don't care what poor neighborhood you grew up in.
How much melanin happens to be in your skin based on where your ancestors come from.
Irrelevant.
People are starting to feel it.
And if you go, if you hit the streets, and if you actually turn off the news and listen to what people have to say on the streets, you'll hear this.
unidentified
Who did you vote for in 2020?
2020 for President Joe Biden.
troy e nehls
If it's Trump versus Biden in 2024, would you take Biden?
unidentified
You know what?
I'm going to be honest with you on that, man.
If Donald Trump gets convicted and is in jail and still running for president, then I'd vote for him.
I voted for Trump.
You voted for Trump?
I did.
Trump?
Trump?
Why?
I'm a Trump supporter.
benny johnson
Joe Biden.
unidentified
Y 'all go check that 2020 election out.
They're doing some crazy shit.
I ain't going to lie.
benny johnson
Are we winning?
Are we winning?
Is that why they're trying to shut everyone down?
Because they realize that the tables have tipped and they have actually lost?
Maybe our friend Shaney, who produced that clip, and you should totally follow him.
Shaney, maybe that's just a one-off, right?
There's no way you could recreate that kind of content from the street amongst people who the media would clearly tell you are not Republicans.
Nope.
unidentified
Do you think that Joe Biden should run for reelection in 2024?
No.
No.
troy e nehls
Why?
unidentified
He ain't did s***.
Sleepy Joe, bro.
He's not doing anything.
Biden for resident.
troy e nehls
What are some of the bad things he's done?
unidentified
Besides turning the economy completely upside down, some of the legislation that he's pushed or passed, especially the whole LGBTQ plus agenda, 100% against that.
Trump 2024.
benny johnson
Are we reaching a moment?
Are we reaching an inflection point here, ladies and gentlemen?
Free advertisement for Elon Musk here.
X. Are we reaching an inflection point?
Have we done it?
Have we actually broken the fourth wall?
Have we broken through?
Are the normies awake?
These are people in Venice Beach, in California, inside of possibly the bluest district in America.
They're in Venice Beach and California.
Districts like that big.
Have we done it?
I mean, this is remarkable.
Ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump is being nominated for speaker.
The man who is nominating Donald Trump will be joining the program, a Texas congressman named Troy Nels.
He'll tell us all about it.
Donald Trump broke the internet yesterday by posting this image on Truth Social, a photo of him holding up the speaker's gavel in a MAGA hat.
Is Donald Trump the man for the moment?
Well, we'll see.
He was asked directly yesterday if he wishes to run for Speaker of the House.
There is nothing constitutionally preventing him from being Speaker of the House.
You don't have to nominate a member of the House.
In fact, multiple times in history, the House has come to a consensus candidate.
We're just telling it like it is, okay?
These are the rules.
Donald Trump saying effectively he'd be happy to serve as Speaker of the House.
unidentified
Huh?
What?
benny johnson
Watch.
unidentified
Would you be Speaker?
Would you be Speaker, Mr. President?
A lot of people have been following me about Speaker.
All I can say is we'll do whatever's best for the country and for the Republican Party.
Would you take a job?
Great people.
We have some great, great people.
Would you take a job?
A lot of people have asked me about it.
I'm focused.
You know, we're leaving.
I'm sure you don't read too much in the papers.
But we're leaving my life.
Fifty fours for President.
You know, my focus is totally on that.
If I can help them during the process, I would do it.
But we have some great people in the Republican Party that can do a great job as speakers.
Well, what do I do?
Marjorie Taylor Greene called for you to be speaker yesterday.
Did you accept that?
No, I think she's a wonderful woman.
I'll do whatever it is to help, but my focus, my total focus, is being president and, quite honestly, making America great again.
benny johnson
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a situation here that would be tantalizing for Donald Trump.
Imagine Donald Trump becomes Speaker of the House just for like 100 days.
He becomes the guy who solves the chaos in the House.
I mean, really, it would be an amazing story.
It'd be an amazing script.
I'd love to write the script and make the movie.
Donald Trump comes in, calms the chaos, calms the waters in the Republican Party, investigates and impeaches Mayorkas.
Launches the investigation into the DOJ and Merrick Garland.
The hunter becomes the hunted.
Ain't no fun when the rabbits got the gun.
And then after impeaching Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, Donald Trump constitutionally becomes president again.
I would watch that Netflix special!
Is this something that could happen?
Well, it's certainly something that's being chatted and chattering about, and there are no rules technically, constitutionally against this.
Marjorie Taylor Greene making the case yesterday.
Watch.
marjorie taylor greene
We know that Hakeem Jeffries would be the worst disaster to put in the speakership, and we can never let him have the gavel.
So what we have to do in our Republican conference is we have to work very hard to put someone in the speakership, That we can trust to hold the gavel and wield power in the third seat in line to the presidency.
Here's what that means.
That means we have 222 Republican members of Congress.
We're missing one right now because he stepped down to go be with his wife.
We have some members of Congress like Anna Paulina Luna, who's out.
She just had a baby not too long ago.
And sometimes we just don't have all of our members here.
But it takes 218 votes on the House floor, 218 out of 435, to elect a Speaker of the House.
And that's what we will be doing.
Everyone saw the Speaker's race back in January.
We're going to go back and we're going to do the same thing all over again.
And this time, I'm going in with the only leader that I trust, and that's President Trump.
benny johnson
So, Donald Trump's going to get votes.
Donald Trump's going to get votes.
Now, I believe Donald Trump's gotten, like, a vote for Speaker in the last round.
Last time they did 18 different vote rounds.
Donald Trump has been officially nominated.
Donald Trump has said he'd be happy to serve the party.
You have some of the larger advocates in Congress saying that they would back Donald Trump.
One of them will join the show here soon.
Donald Trump is posting memes of himself as Speaker.
Democrats are not happy about this.
unidentified
This is panic time for libs.
benny johnson
They don't like...
The Communist does not like...
The messy business of actual democracy.
For all of the pablum and all of the venom that gets spit in your face by these snakes.
Our protecting democracy.
Just a reminder, George Orwell will allow a simple reading of George Orwell 1984, which is not a long book.
The Ministry of Truth.
The goal of the Ministry of Truth is effectively to lie through propaganda and to say the opposite.
It is the inverse.
So every time they say they defend democracy, they don't actually like democracy.
They're making fun of Republicans right now because we are doing the messy business of democracy, the messy business of representing people, which will always intrinsically come with horse trading, with differing views, with butting heads, with fights.
So it goes.
This is the messy business of democracy.
Democrats don't like democracy.
They like uniformed, corporatism, hive mind, AOC, get in line.
When was the last time the squad voted against Pelosi?
These frauds.
These frauds.
Oh, they disgust me.
They sent a letter to Joe Biden.
This is the whole, like, stop bombing people.
Stop all foreign wars.
I tend to agree with them on that, actually.
The older I get and the wiser I get and the more I have kids, and I don't want them to be sent off to fight for Joe Biden.
Certainly you don't either.
They sent a letter to the White House saying, are you ever going to stop funding Ukraine?
They were so savaged by their own party that the squad rescinded the letter.
They took it back.
Oh, so sorry.
We're so sorry, my liege, my king, your highness, for questioning you.
They literally...
They literally buckled Joe Biden's depends for him.
And bowed down.
And apologized for questioning their king.
Commissar.
Yeah.
No.
This is actual democracy.
These are the same people, mule and bitch all day about defending democracy.
This is what it looks like, man.
It's ugly.
And it's vibrant.
And elbows get thrown.
And people lose teeth.
And Donald Trump posts memes.
Like this.
unidentified
This is a picture of himself holding the speaker's gavel.
Again, anyone outside of Congress can take this role.
And Trump already has at least three members, Nell Stubbe and Marjorie Taylor Greene, that are ready to nominate him.
benny johnson
Well, there you go.
There is a man.
Will Donald Trump do this?
I don't know.
We've reached out to our sources and we've gotten like emojis back.
I kid you not.
Like winky faces back from Donald Trump's team.
Donald Trump is also in court perpetually all week.
He's been blowing up this, you know, this trial.
And so, you know, that's the clips that you see of Donald Trump.
So we've gotten a winky face back from Trump's team.
So they're busy.
We get it.
We'd love to have somebody come on the show.
Alina Haba, of course, a dear friend of the show, and Donald Trump's attorney has joined the show earlier this week.
Let's see what happens.
Let's see what happens.
Jim Jordan is my personal favorite.
I will openly advocate for Jim Jordan.
If Donald Trump goes to D.C. and starts campaigning for this role, then I'm going to rewire everything.
As of right now, Donald Trump is...
Doing his Trump thing, right?
He's saying, I want to run for president.
I'll do what it takes to help the Republican Party.
There's a man actively running for this office.
His name is Jim Jordan.
And to show you how powerful we have become and to give you an injection of hopium in this, please have a listen to Jim Jordan, who's far and away the leading candidate right now.
For this position, Steve Scalise, I think, has announced.
I don't think Byron Donalds has officially announced.
ALX, let me know.
But I don't think Byron Donalds has officially announced.
Those are the only three names that I've heard floated around.
Jim Jordan officially announced, and we read you his announcement on the show yesterday live.
Jim Jordan talking about the funding of Ukraine.
Wait a second.
Ladies and gentlemen, are we winning?
Listen to the far and away number one candidate for Speaker of the House right now.
steve doocy
Let's talk a little bit about aid for Ukraine, because there are a number of conservatives who say in your conference that they will sink any candidate for speaker who does support aid for Ukraine.
So where are you on that?
unidentified
I've been clear all along.
Why should we be sending American tax dollars to Ukraine when we don't even know what the goal is?
No one can tell me what the objective is.
Is it some kind of negotiated peace?
Is it driving them out of eastern Ukraine?
Is it driving them out of Crimea, which they've had for 10 years now, or they took during the Obama administration?
What is the objective?
And so until you can tell me the goal, I don't think we should continue to send money there, particularly when we have the problems we have on our border.
So that's fundamental.
I just think that's front and center.
And then second...
How is the money that's already been sent?
How has it been spent?
What kind of waste is going on?
Those are two fundamental questions that I think the American taxpayers want to know the answers to before they send any more of their hard-earned money there.
Particularly, you're sending money there to protect Ukraine's border when we've got the situation we have on our border.
So those are the fundamental questions that we should get answered before we even think about sending more money.
benny johnson
So I'm so glad that he made that point about the borders.
That is a point that, of course, we have been making.
I read the comments during the show.
I have this giant scream of the comments on it right now.
Right in front of me.
Thank you, Carlos Danger, on YouTube for saying no more money for Ukraine.
I literally am watching the comments as they come in.
And I love you, by the way.
I'm looking at you.
I love you.
But we listen.
And we've been talking about this for a very long time, this paradox of Ukraine's border versus our border.
Who's really at war?
Who is engaging in the most...
What is the most dangerous war going on in the world right now?
Well, it certainly is the invasion of the world's strongest country and economy.
It is absolutely the fact that Venezuelans, on their way to criminally invade our country, plant flags on our sovereign soil.
Weird, if you're a migrant and you're trying to escape a place, why would you plant their flag?
Wouldn't you dislike your home country?
No, no, no, no.
That's not what this is about at all.
The Biden regime knows this.
Now, why didn't Donald Trump get a wall?
We played you this fraudulent, humiliating video of Paul Ryan.
Maybe we can re-up it.
Let's re-up it.
Of Paul Ryan.
The first month of Donald Trump's administration, Paul Ryan goes down to the border, rides a horse like a doofus.
And says, I'm going to build the wall.
We will build it.
Paul Ryan had unified control of government.
Republicans had unified control of government.
We had the Senate.
We had the White House.
We had the House of Representatives.
All you needed to do was stroke like a single line in the budget.
Five billion dollars to build the wall.
Somehow, inexplicably, Nancy Pelosi, who was down like 50 members, who had no power and no right to stop anything, was able to stop...
The wall from being funded.
You want to know how we get the situation that we're getting right now in the Republican Party?
We've been lied to.
Here is evidence of that lie.
unidentified
I had the opportunity to travel down to Texas to go to the Rio Grande Valley and spend time with our Border Patrol.
When you see what they're up against, it really gives you even greater respect for what they do.
They clearly need more tools and more support to do their jobs effectively.
That's why we're going to get this done this week.
benny johnson
Let me check my watch.
Did it get done?
The year is 2023, October of.
Did it get done?
The year of our Lord is 2023.
That video was produced in 2017.
Paul Ryan, Speaker of the House, saying, I gotcha.
Don't you worry.
Literally in the video, the text on the screen is, We will build the wall.
Build the wall.
That's a text on the screen.
There's a slide on the screen that says, We will build the wall.
I promise you.
Unified control of government.
Literally unlimited spending capacity.
Just a line item.
A teeny line item for the wall.
And Nancy Pelosi was somehow inexplicably able to stop it.
No, baby.
We're sick of it.
The American public is sick of it.
And one of the people, one of the main agitators, Fought against that style of governance, the Boehner, Paul Ryan, McCarthy style of governance, was Jim Jordan.
Listen to Jim Jordan's tune on Ukraine yesterday, right after his announcement for Speaker.
Go.
What about Ukraine?
unidentified
Are you willing to move forward an aid package for Ukraine if you're Speaker?
I'm against that.
What I understand is, at some point, we're going to have to deal with this appropriation process in the right way.
We're going to try to do that in the next 41 days.
The most pressing issue on Americans' mind is not Ukraine.
It is the border situation, and it is crime on the streets.
benny johnson
It's nice to hear it!
I'm going to hold back from officially endorsing Jim Jordan here.
I certainly want to hear Troy Nels on the show, who will be here in a moment.
To talk about his nomination of Donald Trump.
I don't want to jump the gun.
But Jim Jordan is also a friend of the show.
He's been on the show.
I like Jim Jordan a lot.
He's a strong dude.
He's a champion.
He's a national champion wrestler.
I don't know if you knew that.
He's from Ohio.
A state that deeply understands the way that people live.
Understands the places where I come from.
I'm from the Midwest as well.
That's some of the hardest hit places in the country by the globalists.
They have gutted.
These towns, they've filled them with fentanyl, turned them into zombie land.
Some of the best places in America, they have utterly ravaged.
And why?
Why?
The answer is simple.
They need to destroy the middle class.
The goal is to destroy the middle class and to destroy your wealth.
What does Karl Marx say about the destruction of the middle class?
Grind them between the millstones of inflation and high taxation.
And what do you think you're getting right now?
Yeah.
So ladies and gentlemen, we should pray.
We should pray for God's divine providence here in this search.
You certainly should pray for questions like this on Fox.
I mean, this is disgusting.
This went viral.
We caught this clip and we tweeted it.
We're like, this is pretty sick, man.
There's this host, Brian Kilmeade on Fox, who's making fun of one of the people who voted to oust McCarthy for praying.
Don't trust the corporate media, okay?
This is what they think of you.
Sometimes the mask slips, even on Fox, and you can see it.
Watch.
jesse watters
Are you happy following Matt Gaetz?
unidentified
Is that your leader?
tim burchett
I'm not following Matt Gaetz.
I made my own decision.
I didn't ask Matt.
unidentified
But if Matt Gaetz didn't challenge, you weren't going to challenge.
tim burchett
Do what?
steve doocy
If Matt Gaetz didn't stand up, you weren't going to challenge.
You know that.
tim burchett
I believe I would have.
Oh, come on.
steve doocy
Please, you're praying about it one minute.
The next minute, you're going to lead an insurgency?
tim burchett
So you don't think that praying about it's important?
Is that what you're saying?
unidentified
One minute you're praying about how you're going to vote with Matt Gaetz.
steve doocy
And the next minute you're going to lead an insurgency?
tim burchett
Listen, you've got a predetermined answer to everything.
unidentified
No, I have an opinion about what's going on.
jesse watters
Do you have an opinion too?
benny johnson
Are you making fun of people who pray?
And then you're leading an insurgency?
His voice cracking.
Oh, man.
The reason why they're so upset about McCarthy losing his position is that these journalists, the lobbyists in Washington, D.C., the Frank Luntzes of the world, this entire ecosystem of fraudulence that is built off of you, your faith in the Republican Party, and the people who wish to just go there and wear the R on their jersey, right, and not actually do any work.
They're so worried that they're actually going to have to do work for the American people.
They're so terrified that they don't get to just go to Washington, D.C. and be part of the Democrat blorg.
Again, yesterday we played you the despicable video of John Boehner, the man that we sent to Washington, gave him the gavel, the Tea Party champion, right?
The guy who got ushered into the speakership.
He's a drunk.
He's a chain-smoking, red wine, stained teeth drunk.
He got...
Elected in the Speakership to fight Barack Obama.
And what does he do to you?
What does he do?
unidentified
He cuts ads with Barack Obama.
benny johnson
He cuts ads with him.
Spits in your face.
Spits in your face.
I know we got it.
Let's play it.
We gotta play it.
We gotta play it.
We're sick of it.
Why?
Why is it that we are the ones always getting schlonged?
You know, I'll stop.
I know, like, this speakership race, like, I've really done a lot of thinking about it.
The speakership race has really, like, crystallized for me.
The messy process of democracy is a good thing.
And we should be proud as a Republican Party that we have the guts and can throw the punches to actually stop corruption when we see it and to actually break systems that are not working for the American people.
Do you know what not working for the American people looks like?
When we send you to Washington, D.C. to destroy Obamacare and to disrupt a regime that is clear and far and away Barack Obama is the worst president in American history.
He's currently the president right now in his third term.
And this is how you treat us?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's time for us to bring down the whole disease temple.
Like this.
unidentified
Listen, can we get together?
Now that is a great move.
Yeah.
Thank you for that.
Thank you for that.
So, you got any advice for me?
So now you want my advice?
First, stop standing at me all these.
Ha ha ha ha ha!
benny johnson
Isn't it funny?
Isn't it funny?
I'm siding with the guy who you sent me here.
I'm literally sitting on his lap, eating popcorn.
Out of a popcorn bin with a hole cut in the bottom of it.
Having a great grand old time in the White House theater with Barry.
Isn't it great?
unidentified
Ha ha ha.
benny johnson
Joke's on you, Republicans.
We're sick of it.
We're sick of it.
And it's good that we've thrown down the gauntlet and said we're not going to allow this anymore.
This is destroying the country.
And you don't side with evil.
You don't chuckle and laugh.
And eat the popcorn with evil.
You don't do it.
It's okay to say that.
A good and moral people draw the line in the sand somewhere at Sodom and Gomorrah.
Hopefully before everyone turns into a pillar of salt.
Which is, I think, probably the IQ level of Joe Biden.
Joe Biden's getting roasted today.
Because there is an ESPN anchor who has decided to break her silence and talk about what it's like to interview Joe Biden.
Shocking stuff here.
You gotta hear it straight from SAG Steel.
It's just something else.
She said the saddest thing you can ever do is interview Joe Biden because he can't even finish his sentences.
They had to effectively, like, cut most of the interview because Joe Biden was incompetent and incontinent.
Watch.
unidentified
Versus in person for Clinton as well.
And then I said, oh, so you were a receiver?
And he started to explain it.
And here's the saddest thing.
His voice just trailed off.
He said, I was good.
And then he went silent.
And he goes, oh, never mind.
No, you're laughing.
I thought it was so sad because I realized that's why he was in his basement during the whole election cycle.
Because even then, he couldn't finish his sentences.
He struggled.
So forget about politics.
I don't care.
I didn't vote for him.
However, that made me sad to realize...
bill maher
So you didn't vote for Biden either?
unidentified
No.
bill maher
And that's okay.
unidentified
Thank you.
bill maher
I still love you.
unidentified
Okay, thank you.
bill maher
And also...
unidentified
No, no, no.
Hell no, I didn't vote for Biden.
And look, look.
bill maher
Even with the choice being Trump.
unidentified
Yes.
But see, that's A, B, C, D, E. That's just the E. You've got to accept the E. It's okay.
It is.
bill maher
I will never really understand it, or him, or half the country.
But you know what?
I love people who have crazy E's.
benny johnson
I don't know what the last part there was, but Sage Steele saying, Joe Biden just trailed off.
He just forgot what he was talking about.
We've been conned.
This is Barack Obama's third term.
Do you want further evidence of that?
Here's Joe Biden at the White House yesterday.
joe biden
You can sign up for the save plan at studentaid.gov slash save.
studentaid-gov slash save.
And remember, if you keep up your payments...
benny johnson
It's not funny.
It's elder abuse.
It's like when you see those video cameras, those undercover cameras inside the nursing homes.
It's elder abuse.
It's elder abuse.
And it's the same kind of stuff that happens at these nursing homes.
People go to jail for this stuff.
Abuse your kids, sniffing kids, shower with your daughter.
You saw him get up in the middle of an interview.
Joe Biden, like, literally just gets up and walks out during a live interview on MSNBC.
Just stands up and walks off set while the cameras are running.
Having an adult emergency there.
Oops.
I crapped my pants.
Joe Biden is crapping his pants, watching the southern border and getting the polling and realizing that, wait a second, nobody wants to be replaced in their own country.
And people are saying that this is like a racist thing or whatever.
No.
Why don't you go down to the south side of Chicago?
We have.
We go to New York.
Like, there are big-time minority communities that are furious right now about losing their political power, about losing the fabric of the place that they grew up.
Because that's what happens when you bring people into the country that have no connection to the country, don't speak the language.
So what's the goal here?
Obviously.
Disruption.
An unmooring of American society.
And so now, Joe Biden, Mr. Oops, I crapped my pants, is going to have to go back on his main campaign promise.
Joe Biden, officially breaking this morning, will begin to build miles and miles of border wall.
Trump's border wall in Texas.
26 federal laws have been waived to build a border wall in South Texas due to acute and immediate need to stop the migrant surge.
Trump gloating that he's always right.
Joe Biden, while campaigning, said this.
joe biden
No, there will not be another foot of wall constructed in my administration.
Number one.
benny johnson
Hmm.
Interesting.
Not another foot of wall.
What did Joe Biden's administration say?
What did Cringe say in our Cringe alert for the day?
Oh, you will recall that back in 2021, cringe Jean Pierre said walls don't work and that they're racist.
unidentified
The president's nominee for lead customs of border protection said in a Senate confirmation hearing yesterday that he supported the continued use of Title 42. He also indicated that certain sections of the border wall should be finished.
Does the president agree?
karine jean-pierre
Well, as you know, we have said that I have to look at the comments.
I have not seen them, so I want to make sure I read it within context.
But we have talked about the border wall here in general as a way that it's been used to close the border, and we feel that it is a policy.
It's not an effective policy.
benny johnson
It's racist.
unidentified
Walls don't work.
benny johnson
Oh, okay.
Well, hey, ladies and gentlemen, why don't we...
unidentified
Let's see.
benny johnson
Let me turn on CNN.
Okay, can we do this?
Let's turn on CNN, Royce.
Okay, CNN, go!
unidentified
Well, they're saying they're doing it here because they have 2019 funds that were appropriated for this exact purpose, which was building additional border barriers, and that they're going to focus those funds on an area that has received a lot of traffic of migrants.
Now, according to the numbers and federal data, this area, the Rio Grande Valley sector, which covers South Texas, has seen nearly 300,000 encounters between last October and this August.
So clearly an area of concern for administration officials as they look to set up this border.
barrier.
Now, in last month, the Customs of Border Protection had announced and sought public input from the community as they were looking at doing this.
And this would be up to 20 miles of border barrier and would include a number of fixtures, for example, lights, cameras and gates, as well as access roads.
But to do it and to do it in an expedited manner, they're waiving certain laws.
That includes the Clean Air Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, as well as the Endangered Species Act.
Now, they are sure to come under criticism by Democrats.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
The Endangered Species Act!
benny johnson
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
They sued Donald Trump every second of every day to stop him from building this wall in Texas.
We went to Arizona.
We showed you that Joe Biden was breaking his promise and building this wall.
We showed you months ago.
Back in the very beginning of September, maybe I think the last week of August.
We showed you that Joe Biden, we were months ahead of CNN because we actually go out and do the reporting thanks to your support.
And we showed you Joe Biden's a liar.
Watch.
Welcome to Yuma, Arizona, the border with America and Mexico.
Maybe you remember this bad boy.
You've seen it in your wildest dreams or nightmares as Donald Trump's wall.
It is impossible to climb.
Not only is it flaming hot, ouch, it burns the fingers.
100 degrees outside.
And here's something interesting.
A brand new wall.
This is the Joe Biden wall.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen.
He said not one more foot of that Donald Trump racist wall shall we build.
joe biden
There will not be another foot of wall constructed on my administration.
benny johnson
But here we are.
I only bring you this news to show you that he is a dirty liar and that Joe Biden is, in fact, building this wall.
But looks like it may still be effective.
We're going to find out today.
This is Benny on the border.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Ladies and gentlemen, we say thank you.
We say thank you for supporting our show.
We say thank you for watching.
Because you allow us to go out in the field and show you those things.
You've been educated.
You are 60 days ahead of CNN in understanding what Joe Biden is doing on the border.
Thanks to you.
God bless you.
And God bless the state of Texas.
For fighting the Biden administration, one of the greatest fighters from the state of Texas, a congressman named Troy Nels joins the show now, and I hear he might have a cigar in hand.
Let's go.
unidentified
Let's go.
benny johnson
Congressman!
Okay, no cigar.
All right, no cigar.
Okay.
unidentified
Oh, yeah!
troy nehls
Come on, Benny.
You know I like my cigars.
troy e nehls
You know I like my cigars.
Benny, it's good to be with you.
benny johnson
All right.
Talk to me about what you are smoking, sir.
You are bringing the heat.
troy e nehls
It's a beautiful ashen cabinet.
It's a good ashen cigar.
It's mild Connecticut wrapper.
unidentified
Hey!
troy nehls
The company's owned by a great group, the Levin family out of Pennsylvania.
But I enjoy my cigars.
troy e nehls
Hey, but let me say this to you, Benny.
You just did a great job talking about the border wall.
Now the Biden.
troy nehls
See, the Bidens, when Trump was building the wall, Trump or Biden would say, we're worried about the prairie chicken and the woodpecker and the local toad that lives along the southern border.
Now we're going to waive all that.
unidentified
So prairie chickens, toads, woodpeckers.
troy e nehls
They're not out to protect you anymore because now they realize we need a wall.
Donald Trump has been right all along about the southern border and building that wall.
You were in front of it.
troy nehls
I was in front of it.
troy e nehls
It's effective, brother.
It truly is.
benny johnson
So you are effectively nominating Donald Trump for Speaker of the House.
Talk me through it.
troy nehls
Damn straight I am, and it's going to happen on Tuesday when I get back up there.
Listen.
troy e nehls
I was shocked, quite honestly, that Kevin McCarthy, that he quit.
troy nehls
He did.
troy e nehls
6.45 Tuesday evening, we had a conference meeting up there, and Kevin McCarthy said he's not seeking the office.
troy nehls
I tell you, the air left the room.
I immediately thought, well, I know what we do.
troy e nehls
We nominate the greatest leader in my lifetime, Donald J. Trump.
troy nehls
And it's starting to build some momentum.
I'm getting some other members that say they love the idea of Donald J. Trump.
troy e nehls
I've had conversations with the president over the last 48 hours.
Not going to get into that.
But I will say that if we can't find a way to build consensus, a consensus candidate within our conference, Donald Trump is the answer for the interim.
benny johnson
So, Congressman, you and I, we've been doing this show for a while.
You've always been a fantastic guest.
Please do us the favor.
Do this audience a favor.
This audience loves you so much.
You've got to let us in on some of your phone call conversation with Trump.
You've got to tell us something.
Give us something.
What does Trump say about this?
troy e nehls
Well, listen, you've seen him.
The media have asked him while they're coming up there and trying to destroy him up there in New York with this bold, malarkey civil trial.
People have asked him about, would he take the job?
Donald Trump has made it very, very clear.
He loves this country.
He's put himself out there.
He became the President of the United States.
He's now putting himself in harm's way with all the criticism.
troy nehls
Four indictments in five months, 90 felonies.
troy e nehls
He loves this country.
He's putting himself out in front of America to say, let me help make America great again again.
I'm thinking, let's help Donald Trump make Congress great again.
benny johnson
Would you actually get support of the moderate Republicans, like squishy Republicans who don't like Trump?
troy nehls
You know, I tell you, a lot of people have asked that.
troy e nehls
I will tell you, Benny.
I think it's going to be between Steve Scalise and Jim Jordan.
They seem to be the two that are out there that a lot of people are talking about that make it.
troy nehls
But I don't know if either one of them can get to the number.
troy e nehls
I mean, we're going to have to talk about this motion to vacate.
There are the soft ones up there that are saying, this should never happen again.
You cannot let one member and seven others come together and kick the Speaker of the House out of his position.
That was the motion to vacate the chair.
troy nehls
And Matt Gaetz effectively used it.
troy e nehls
Kevin McCarthy in January said, just one, that's all you need.
You can do it.
And it cost him his job.
So there are others that are going to want to change some of the House rules to make sure that that can't ever happen again.
And I think there's going to be some division as to whether we should change that rule or not.
benny johnson
So do you expect there is not going to be a consensus candidate and that there's going to be further?
Well, I do know this.
troy nehls
Certainly with the first round, when I nominate Donald J. Trump, there are enough Republicans that said they are going to cast their vote for Donald J. Trump in the first ballot.
troy e nehls
So it's not going to be done in the first ballot, I can assure you that.
benny johnson
And Donald Trump's very close with Jim Jordan.
Obviously, he's a big fan of Jim Jordan.
Jim Jordan's been a big fighter for his...
I have nothing against Steve Scalise, but Jordan's a friend of the show.
I really like Jim Jordan.
Would you consider moving your vote over to Jim Jordan if Donald Trump told you to?
troy nehls
Listen, I like both these guys.
This isn't personal for me.
Jim Jordan selected me to be one of the guys on judiciary.
It's an honor.
He's great.
troy e nehls
I think he's brilliant.
troy nehls
I think he's conservative.
It's nothing personal against Jim Jordan.
troy e nehls
It's nothing personal against Steve Scalise or anybody else that would want to put their name in the hat.
troy nehls
Kevin Hearn's name's been mentioned.
But I just think the right guy for the job right now.
troy e nehls
To bring our conference together is Donald J. Trump.
He can do it in the interim, right?
When he takes office as speaker, he's not going to ask anybody for anything.
troy nehls
He doesn't need anything.
troy e nehls
He just wants to try to say, let's make Congress, let's let the American people know that Congress can work efficiently, effectively.
Let's pass these appropriations bills.
troy nehls
Let's make sure that we get good conservative legislation over to the Senate.
And let Chuck Schumer do nothing with it.
Donald Trump is the right answer right now for our problems up in Washington.
benny johnson
So it would be too bad.
Let's say Donald Trump does get this position.
It would be so beautiful to have Donald Trump be the one who evicted Nancy Pelosi from her special little office in the Capitol.
Unfortunately, that's already happened.
Did you know that Nancy Pelosi had a special office to fundraise from inside of the Capitol building?
troy nehls
No, I did.
troy e nehls
I had no clue that was happening.
But could you imagine Donald J. Trump, the Speaker of the House?
And when we go through this impeachment inquiry, and then we decide to impeach Joe Biden, I think it would be fantastic to have Donald Trump up there with that gavel.
troy nehls
Damn!
Impeach, baby!
benny johnson
You're out of here!
Well, he did post this.
He did post this.
I don't know if you're in a place where you can see the screen, Congressman, but he did post the gavel and the meme.
So you're saying this could be a reality?
troy e nehls
Well, we're going to find out on Tuesday.
I think we're going to go back up.
I can tell you this.
What we're going to do on Tuesday is not going to be what we did in January, going through 15 iterations for the American people to see just how dysfunctional Washington is.
Many times I thought this was really embarrassing what we were doing.
I mean, members are strong with their convictions.
I understand the ones that didn't ever want Kevin, but I think we're going to do this behind closed doors in a conference meeting, and we probably won't leave that room.
Until we can find that consensus candidate.
troy nehls
I just don't tell you how long it's...
I don't know how long it's going to take.
We may have to bring in some bathrooms and plenty of meals.
benny johnson
Okay.
All right.
Well, we saw Donald Trump bringing in mountains of McDonald's into the court in New York.
So who knows?
Is Donald Trump planning on phoning into this meeting?
Do you think Donald Trump will make an appearance at this meeting?
All right.
unidentified
All right.
benny johnson
Alright, so final thing, you've been really big on the impeachment of Joe Biden.
One of the criticisms, and you know, water under the bridge, you know, McCarthy said he's not going to run again.
One of the criticisms was, where the hell is the Hunter Biden subpoena?
You know, they brought in Trump's kids day and night.
There wasn't a single day that went by where Don Jr. didn't have to sit for nine hours with Adam Schiff grilling him.
And Eric Swalwell getting fang-fanged under the table.
But the Trump kids getting dragged in, getting roasted.
All these traps set for them, right?
To try and put them in prison.
Yet Hunter Biden hadn't gotten a subpoena.
What the hell is that about?
troy nehls
Yeah.
troy e nehls
Well, let's get it right.
troy nehls
It's not fang-fang.
troy e nehls
It's yum-yum.
troy nehls
That's the new name.
troy e nehls
It's yum-yum.
As it relates to Hunter Biden, subpoena him, getting him in front of the oversight committee, I tell you.
James Comer's doing a hell of a job with oversight.
I think Jim Jordan's doing a great job with judiciary, even the ways and means.
I mean, those three committees have oversight over this impeachment inquiry.
I know the American people want answers yesterday.
It just takes a while.
It takes a process.
And I think we have done a great job exposing just how corrupt, how corrupt the Biden administration is, Joe Biden and his crackhead son, Hunter.
benny johnson
Yes, yes.
The original woodpecker that Joe Biden has protected is Hunter Biden.
So, because this is breaking news, final, and I assume you're in Texas right now.
You're not in a border district, but of course these effects bleed directly into your district.
Your thoughts on the Biden news this morning, just your takeaway thoughts on the Biden news this morning, building the wall.
troy nehls
Well, I think some of the smart ones up there, there are a few smart Democrats in the administration that have probably said, if we continue down this policy with this open borders and no wall and people dying from fentanyl and the sex trafficking, the human trafficking, I mean, it's all over the news.
troy e nehls
The conservative outlets are covering it.
They're thinking if we don't do something, I mean, we're losing the American people.
We have moved so far left with...
troy nehls
Boys being in girls' bathrooms, inflation, fuel.
troy e nehls
We lost our energy independence.
I think there's a few smart ones up there that are saying, we either do something about the southern border or Donald Trump's going to be the 47th president.
So I think there's a few smart ones up there that are trying to say, hey, you better get something.
You've got to do something about the southern border.
It hurts them.
I can tell you Joe Biden doesn't want to do it, but he doesn't have a choice because he's losing his own party.
benny johnson
He's also losing his mind.
I hope that you smoke him.
I hope you smoke the cigars.
I hope you smoke the Biden regime.
We thank you, Congressman, for being such a fighter.
Come back and let us know what happens in this wild week that we're about to see.
troy e nehls
Thank you, Benny.
You can reach me, anybody, at Reptroynails.
troy nehls
Thank you.
troy e nehls
God bless you, Benny.
Trump 2024.
unidentified
Godspeed.
We'll be right back.
benny johnson
Gentlemen, we played you that clip from way out in Yuma, Arizona, where we traveled with your support, and we thank you for that, to bring you the news of Joe Biden's wall.
Now, what is so interesting about Yuma, Arizona, is that it's one of the hottest places on Earth.
It's in a climate, I mean, it is like way out, the desert.
You have to drive through like two miles, from Phoenix, you have to drive two miles essentially through the desert with nothing.
There's nothing there.
But our cell phones still worked.
It's very important for our cell phones to work on this job because we go to some pretty extreme places, and that is because we use Patriot Mobile.
Patriot Mobile is the company that we trust.
It's the America's only Christian and conservative wireless provider.
When I say only trust me, it is the only one.
Patriot Mobile keeps us connected with the best service in America on all three major networks, making the switch easy today.
Support a company that supports free speech.

So, the Biden administration is in complete and total panic.
I think it was very important what Ted Cruz had to say about Mayorkas and about the border, saying that Joe Biden is effectively the last mile of the human smuggling ring.
Ted Cruz calling Joe Biden the world's largest human smuggler.
Something that they're very upset about.
They do not like this kind of language.
Ladies and gentlemen, here's the great senator from the state of Texas.
Clip 1-5.
I-5.
ted cruz
Alejandro Mayorkas, the Secretary of Homeland Security, he is not trying to stop this.
He doesn't want to stop this.
He views his job...
Is to speed up illegal immigration.
When you listen to his testimony before the Senate, what he says is, look, I want to process illegal immigrants faster.
You know, one of the last times I was there, the Border Patrol agent showed me, every one of them had an app on their phones, where they can now process an illegal immigrant in two minutes.
And you've got to understand the dynamic.
And I know you've been down to the border, but for folks who haven't been there, I bring senators down to the border all the time, and we go out, we'll go out on a midnight patrol, and you don't have to go look for illegal immigrants.
unidentified
Literally within minutes, they'll find you.
benny johnson
I kind of like this new model of interviewing people at diners.
It's kind of cool.
There is some breaking news that is going on right now across the country.
Of course, we haven't been on the Joe Biden crime family beat for a couple of days here.
There's been some other interesting and juicy developments going on in our body politic.
But we have an update on the Joe Biden crime family.
Days after Joe Biden became president, his DOJ saw a briefing.
On Hunter's criminal case.
Oh my.
Oh wow.
It looks as though the fix was in from the beginning.
Despite Merrick Garland saying there's no involvement.
I'm so sad I'm going to cry.
I'm going to cry.
People questioning me going after Christians.
How dare you question me?
Merrick Garland, such a batty old woman.
Ladies and gentlemen, he directly demanded to know everything that was going on with Hunter Biden.
And then, clearly, Covered it all up for his boss, mob boss Joe.
Watch.
john solomon
Let's take everybody back.
Merrick Garland said, we were hands off.
We didn't touch the Hunter Biden case at all.
No, no interference.
David Weiss totally in charge of the plane.
And then we found out, well, wait a second, the U.S. attorneys in Washington, D.C. and Los Angeles appointed by Joe Biden.
Blocked the tax charges going back to 2014 that would have put felony charges, tax evasion on Hunter Biden.
Then we found out a few weeks ago, wait a second, when they were making that sweetheart plea deal, the Deputy Attorney General's office, Joe Biden's political appointee, involved there.
Now we found out the second Joe Biden signed his inauguration papers.
He gets in 16 days after he gets into the Oval Office.
The political appointees at the Justice Department demanded a briefing from Delaware on February 5th, 2021.
And it was an odd event.
Not just the ask for the briefing, but some of the people that were coming.
The agents, Gary Shapley and Joe Ziga, were very concerned that the National Security Division of the Justice Department was trying to hone in on this briefing, trying to find out what they were investigating.
It didn't make sense to them, for one.
It was a tax case.
Two, there had not been a national security component yet made into the predicate of the case.
So why is the National Security Division trying to hone its way in?
benny johnson
They're so dirty.
They're so corrupt.
They think they'll be in power forever.
They think they'll be in power forever.
And it is our job to prove them wrong.
Justice we will have in this nation.
If you fight hard enough.
And if you pray, then you know that ultimately the long arc of history bends towards justice.
They are doing this as an emergency.
They're doing this now in an emergency capacity.
There's this major story that broke yesterday.
Hunter Biden naming ex-Hunter.
Joe Biden naming ex-Hunter colleague to helm whistleblower agency.
This is a sign.
This is a sign.
They are attempting to shut down the whistleblowers into Joe Biden's crimes.
They are putting in charge of the people who protect whistleblowers, Hunter's old business partners.
Much like Judge Shutkin, who's overseeing Trump's trial in D.C., is an old partner with Hunter Biden in the law firm.
Nobody knows this.
Click.
Does that click for you?
Judge Shutkin, the old sentencer of all of the January 6th defendants, maximum sentences, over-sentencing.
She was a Hunter Biden law partner.
She worked with him.
How is this even allowed?
Now Hunter Biden's other law partner is going to be overseeing protecting whistleblowers, much like Hillary Clinton oversaw the protection of Jeffrey Epstein when he was in federal max security prison in downtown Manhattan.
Don't turn off the lights, Jeff!
unidentified
Woo!
Yikes.
joe biden
I can't breathe.
benny johnson
Yeah.
Here we go.
Criminality.
And they're being very blatant with it, which means they're desperate.
Watch.
jesse watters
Fox News alert.
Primetime just caught Biden stuffing the special counsel's office.
Biden just appointed Hunter's friend and former partner to oversee investigations into himself and Hunter.
Biden pal Hampton Dellinger.
We'll control investigations into Biden's classified documents and investigations into Hunter's guns and taxes.
Not only has Dellinger known Biden for years in Delaware, he's gone to dinner parties and lunches with the fam.
This guy even did crisis management for Burisma.
This is the guy running the special counsel's office.

This is the guy running the special counsel's office.

Hard power and soft power.
Hard power is where you start to lose the people.
You prove to everyone that you see the people as the enemy.
You prove to the country that you see them and the population as the enemy.
This is, of course, happening right now.
Donald Trump followers targeted by FBI as 2024 election nears.
This breaking from Newsweek.
This is the use of hard power.
Expect far more of this.
Why?
Because they know they're losing.
Soft power is, of course, the peaceful, the light touch, the peaceful way to sort of get what you want.
Hard power is what happens when you're losing, and you're desperate, and you're drowning, and you're going to use all of your strength possible to rig, to break, or to burn to the ground.
If we can't rule this country...
Says the deep state, we'll burn it all to the ground.
This is what they're doing by targeting Trump supporters.
This, according to Newsweek, the federal government believes that the threat to violence in major civil disturbances around the 2024 U.S. presidential election is so great, it has quietly created a new category of extremists to track and counter Donald Trump's MAGA followers.
The challenge for the Federal Bureau of Investigation, a primary federal agency charged with law enforcement, is to pursue and prevent...
What it calls domestic terrorism without direct reference to political parties or affiliations.
You'll notice that the real insurrectionists, the BLM and Antifa crew, nowhere to be found.
Watch.
jesse watters
A big report out of Newsweek says the FBI is targeting Trump voters ahead of the election.
The FBI secretly put Trump supporters in a category of extremists that it's going to be tracking ahead of 2024.
And classified data?
Obtained by Newsweek shows that Trump supporters are the main target of FBI anti-government investigations.
Investigations that doubled from 2020 to 2021.
FBI assessments on Americans also doubled.
And an FBI assessment is about as close to spying on citizens as you can really get without saying it.
So why are we using counter-terrorism techniques that were developed to fight al-Qaeda on us?
A senior Intel official told Newsweek, we've crossed the Rubicon.
Biden's made it clear MAGA Republicans are an existential threat to the country.
He's campaigned on it.
And the FBI now releases a report that says claims of voter fraud, conspiracies about COVID-19, will spark domestic terrorism.
Now, who do you think they're talking about?
But the FBI says, we don't play politics.
Sure.
benny johnson
We've reached the breaking point.
Cross the Rubicon, call it what it is.
We've reached that point, ladies and gentlemen.
We're here.
The federal government has used soft power in seeing you as an enemy for a long time.
I mean, a long time.
Ever since post-World War II, there have been some very dark forces inside of our government that, of course, sees the American public as a threat.
This has always been the case.
Go check in with our dear friend JFK.
Anybody who tries to re-deliver power...
Prestige, citizenry, and unleashing of American potential, the unleashing of our population as free citizens to make with and do with their lives what they wish, those people are cut down.
And so here we are, standing at this moment, praying to God, appealing to heaven, what would our FBI think about the American founders?
It's a great question.
What would the FBI currently constituted, Joe Biden's regime, do with people like the American Founding Fathers?
I think you have your answer, ladies and gentlemen.
I think they would put them down like dogs.
This is precisely what they might be doing with Joe Biden's dog.
Biden's dog commander removed from White House after a series of biting incidents.
Now, anybody, you can actually see the photo here of Joe Biden's dog biting another White House staffer.
President Biden's dog commander has been removed from the White House campus amid multiple biting incidents.
The president and first lady deeply care deeply about the safety of those who work at the White House and those who protect them every single day.
Of course, they won't prosecute a single Antifa member who stormed the White House and burned down White House grounds, burned down buildings at the White House, and burned down St. John's Church across the street from it.
But they do care deeply about protecting the White House.
There's a staffer.
I don't know who that is.
That's a staffer getting bit, though.
There's a literal photo of the dog biting a White House staffer.
My God.
What would you prefer?
Getting bit by Biden's dog or getting sniffed by Joe Biden himself?
I don't know.
Which fate would be worse?
I can tell you this.
Any dog owner?
Are you a dog owner?
Any dog owner knows this for sure.
The behavior of the dog, much like the behavior of a child, is a reflection on the parent.
It's a reflection on the owner.
There's a reflection on the master.
The behaviors are indicative of bad ownership, bad parenting, a bad person.
Animals are spiritual creatures and they can feel energies, man.
You know that.
Same with little kids.
Little kids get scared of creepy people.
That's why you see a lot of these little kids reel back in horror when Joe Biden's around them.
It's spiritual war that we're fighting.
And we're fighting it with you.
And we say thank you for supporting us.
I have here in my hot little hands the proof, ladies and gentlemen.
This is the proof.
The official Benny Brigade keychain.
I shall open it up here.
On the show.
There it is.
Straight out of the bag.
Even has the little logo there on the packaging.
Straight out of the bag.
The official Brigade keychain.
All you need do, if you support our show, to get one of these puppies sent to you gratis from us, handmade in America, with American leather, is sign up for our betting brigade.
Join the fastest-growing, most exclusive club on the internet, also the cheapest, I will add, because we know that times are tough for people, if you wish to support our show.
This comes...
This comes not...
This comes...
Partly because of necessity, because we want to stay independent, but also because people kept asking us, how do we support you and your work?
This is how.
You join the Benny Brigade, you get the keychain, you pop it on your keys.
Ladies and gentlemen, you help us fight for this country with no strings attached.
We're sick of these people who have to read off the teleprompters and who have to say, no, you're not allowed to talk about that!
You can help us stay independent by joining the brigade, and we thank you for doing so.
Get one of these hot little, sweet little packages in the mail.
We'll be happy to send you one.
Ladies and gentlemen, we'll be happy to send you off today with good news.
Always the good news.
The verse of the day from 1 Corinthians.
No temptation has taken you except what is common to mankind.
God is faithful.
He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear.
But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
Do you feel as though you're enduring?
Some trials right now?
Some tough times?
I certainly do.
You feel like you're enduring something that will be written about in the history books?
The potential collapse of Rome?
Do you think about Rome?
Do you study Rome?
I do.
Rome had a moment of potential collapse, and they righted their leadership.
They got rid of all their bad leaders, and they reinstalled, they installed, and put in place a group of people who listened to the people.
They democratized further the process.
They re-upped their military.
They strengthened their borders.
They clamped down on illegal immigration.
And they reinstituted citizenry and the value of that citizenry and the obligation that it bears to be a Roman citizen.
That happened.
And it actually prevented the fall of Rome for 400 years.
Rome was about to fall.
And...
They stopped it.
Wise men and a wise populace were able to fix the problems that were plaguing Rome.
Open immigration?
It's crazy when you think about it.
Open immigration, a collapsed military, a collapsed sense of what it means to actually be a Roman, and of course, expansive wars.
Wars beyond what the Roman population and treasury could actually fund.
Those are the things that brought down Rome, and those are happening to us now.
And so, ladies and gentlemen, we appeal to heaven.
We pray for God's guidance.
And we say, no, it can be done, actually.
And God will be there with us.
Nothing will, we will not be overtaken by these trials.
God will provide for us and we will endure it.
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for watching the program.
My name is Benny Johnson.
This is The Benny Show.
