| And so we have delivered, and I have a massive announcement to make right here off the top of the show, that we will have Tulsi Gabbard on the program tomorrow. | ||
| We will have Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence. | ||

| We hope. | ||
| Crossing our fingers, we don't know. | ||

| And we're not perfect in that, but we do our level-headed best to be the hardest workers in this industry and to make sure that this audience is the most connected. | ||
| So again, we are proud to be bringing you Tulsi Gabbard. | ||
| Tune in tomorrow, 10 a.m. our normal time for the stream. | ||
| Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard on the stream. | ||
| All right, ladies and gentlemen, we're going to rock and roll today. | ||
| President Trump making a lot of news this morning, posting on Truth Social, also making quite a bit of news yesterday. | ||
| I can't wait to get to the Epstein story. | ||
| The Epstein story is so weird and interesting. | ||
| How President Trump had employed Virginia Roberts? | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| ALX, by the way, for that block, make sure that you have Virginia Roberts' deposition about Donald Trump. | ||
| It's very important to hear what she had to say about President Trump. | ||
| It's going to really make or break the block. | ||
| Okay, here we go. | ||
| Trump says he's open to jailing Hillary for Russia gate. | ||
| But I just want to be fair. | ||
| Let's read. | ||
| Let's start. | ||
| President Trump always chose his cards just a little bit, right? | ||
| Like imagine knowing what they were raiding your house for in Mar-a-Lago. | ||
| Imagine knowing all of the seperfuge that happened inside of the CIA. | ||
| Trump was briefed on all of this. | ||
| Imagine understanding all of this and having to hold those cards close to the chest and not just like out with it. | ||
| You know, and Trump's been telling us that obviously they ran this fraud against him and that they made this stuff up. | ||
| But while Trump had the documented proof, it was all classified. | ||
| Getting stuff declassified is a very arduous process. | ||
| We're going to talk with Tulsi about that tomorrow, along with a number of other things. | ||
| But imagine having all that. | ||
| Imagine the restraint that it shows from President Trump. | ||
| I know restraint probably isn't the thing you think about when you think about President Trump, but two prime examples of this is on the debate stage, you could see that President Trump obviously noted that Joe Biden was infirmed. | ||
| And it had been years since he had met Joe Biden alive on stage. | ||
| They only did like two debates in 2020. | ||
| And so Donald Trump went out on the stage and he was like, wow, what is wrong with this guy? | ||
| And so Trump actually held back. | ||
| He didn't like take out the baseball bat with barbed wire around it and just like clobber Joe Biden metaphorically, like the way that President Trump absolutely could have. | ||
| Instead, he like held, he was like, whoa, you know, I'm just going to let this guy speak for himself here. | ||
| And Joe Biden said he can't wait to kill Medicaid. | ||
| Got it. | ||
| Okay, good job. | ||
| You can see it in Trump's face. | ||
| You can see Trump's like, wow, I got to play this one. | ||
| I got to play this one tight. | ||
| Imagine yet still you have, there's the moment. | ||
| That's the moment where Trump's like, he just said we finally were able to kill Medicaid? | ||
| Medicare? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What the hell is going on here? | |
| Anyway, there was a wild moment that is starting to break forth. | ||
| President Trump is now letting the dogs off the leash when it comes to RussiaGate. | ||
| Now, for years, President Trump has said this is a fraud and a hoax against him. | ||
| And we've, of course, always agreed with that contention. | ||
| But there's never been hard documents. | ||
| We've been able to see what's in the public arena. | ||
| But so much that was in the public arena was fake. | ||
| And it was James Comey going on his book tour and everything like that. | ||
| So much of it wasn't real. | ||
| And so let's look at the actual real documents. | ||
| And we've been able to see the real documents here. | ||
| And the more that we do interviews with people like General Flynn, George Papadopoulos, the more that we talk to the people that were there in those time periods, the more we are able to piece together the mosaic. | ||
| Hopefully with the coup de grace tomorrow, have I mentioned Tulsi Gabbard will be live on the show. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Get the sound effects ready. | ||
| Killer Klein. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Lots of rap horns, hopefully. | ||
| So anyway, let's begin. | ||
| President Trump, and I want to go through the rampage because President Trump has been on a rampage this morning. | ||
| President Trump, didn't he just say ALX? | ||
| Didn't he just say that he's going to put Obama in jail? | ||
| He just said that. | ||
| So give me the full breakdown of everything that he's popped up this morning on True Social Producers. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Trump says he's open to jailing Hillary. | ||
| I just want to be fair. | ||
| The president says he decided not to prosecute Clinton during his first term. | ||
| Let's read. | ||
| President Donald Trump today suggested that he wasn't opposed to jailing Hillary Clinton for her role in the 2016 Russia Gate conspiracy. | ||
| The president made the comments on Miranda Devine's Pod Force One podcast. | ||
| The president was responding to the declassified information on RussiaGate that was released earlier this month by Tulsi Gabbard. | ||
| We had Hillary Clinton down to whatever we wanted to do with her, Trump said, noting that he felt it was inappropriate to prosecute her. | ||
| This was in the first term. | ||
| She's the wife of a president. | ||
| She's a secretary of state. | ||
| We could have done a very big number. | ||
| And I said, we don't want to be doing that. | ||
| The concept of putting her in jail, indicting her is things that I didn't want to do. | ||
| He said that at the time, he wanted to focus on the country. | ||
| And I said, no, no, no, we just won. | ||
| We have to get back to whatever. | ||
| We have to heal. | ||
| Trump said that he feels differently now. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Wait till we talk about what we know is going to be released very soon because it'll change everything. | ||
| I was the one that killed it. | ||
| And then they do the same thing to me. | ||
| So I just wanted to be fair. | ||
| Ultimately, it's up to Pam Bondi, he said, adding that Attorney General Pam Bondi, Trump's been consistent in calling for allegations, calling the allegations that he colluded with Russia to prop up his campaign a hoax and an act of treason, saying the country is in danger. | ||
| Gabbard stated in a press release, accompanying with the documents, that she had referenced lawmakers involved in DOJ for criminal prosecution. | ||
| Tulsi Gabbard has framed this as treasonous. | ||
| She's called it treasonous. | ||
| Their goal was to subvert the will of the American people into an act of what was essentially a years-long coup and the objective of trying to usurp the president from fulfilling the mandate bestowed upon him by the American people. | ||
| CIA Director John Ratcliffe, who may well be out with new information today, we are hearing, what would John Ratcliffe be revealing? | ||
| Well, we're going to be moving on from the 2016 election to that they tried to steal to the 2020 election, but they did steal. | ||
| This is very interesting. | ||
| John Ratcliffe said that Hillary Clinton, former President Barack Obama, CI Director John Brennan, and FBI Director James Comey have all been referred to the Justice Department for an investigation that could face prosecution. | ||
| And Obama is likely protected under presidential immunity, but none of the rest of them are. | ||
| Hillary Clinton didn't get a pardon out the door. | ||
| Neither did Comey or any of these individuals. | ||
| Bondi has appointed a strike force to investigate these documents. | ||
| And we're going to look into that strike force. | ||
| We're going to look into Cash Patel's role in that and Dan Bongino's role in that because their teams are telling us some very interesting things. | ||
| Surely we have the clip. | ||
| Yeah, okay, here we go. | ||
| We have the clip of Donald Trump perhaps making good on his oldest promise. | ||
| Trump's oldest promise and most viral promise is probably that he'll deport Rosie O'Donnell. | ||
| Okay, so check. | ||
| He finished that one up. | ||
| That was Donald Trump's first comment on the national stage. | ||
| Only you've called women fat pigs. | ||
| Only Rosie O'Donnell. | ||
| Do you have that? | ||
| No, you don't have that. | ||
| Only Rosie O'Donnell. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| We don't have to. | ||
| We've seen it too many times. | ||
| It's an absolute automatic laugh every time you see it. | ||
| But this is President Trump's first promise was that he was going to deport Rosie. | ||
| We don't have to worry about this one because he's made good on this. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Here's President Trump's first time on stage during the debate, Megan Kelly moderating. | ||
| First question out of the gate. | ||
| At the time, everybody thought that Donald Trump was not running a real presidential campaign and this was all fake. | ||
| So everyone was very curious to see what he said out of the gate. | ||
| And here we go. | ||
| It's just awfully good that someone with the temperament of Donald Trump is not in charge of the sorrow. | ||
| Killer Klein. | ||
| Killer Klein's apologizing to the audience. | ||
| He says he's sorry. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here we go. | |
| Here we go. | ||
| Donald Trump or Rosie O'Donnell. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Women, you don't like fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals. | |
| Only Rosie O'Donnell. | ||
| No, it wasn't. | ||
| Try not to laugh. | ||
| Try. | ||
| It's impossible. | ||
| It's impossible not to laugh. | ||
| Try. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And disgusting animals. | |
| Your Twitter account. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Only Rosie O'Donnell. | |
| No, it wasn't. | ||
| It's impossible. | ||
| By the way, this was in an arena where the Cleveland Cavaliers played. | ||
| They had just won the NBA National Championship at the time. | ||
| And I assure you, I know because I was there in the front row, that the national championship Cleveland Cavaliers didn't get louder roars than Donald Trump in this moment. | ||
| I can assure you of that. | ||
| This was a game-changing moment. | ||
| Donald Trump made good on that promise. | ||
| Rosie O'Donnell has deported and says she's never coming back. | ||
| She has herpes of the mouth. | ||
| She's apparently a belligerent alcoholic. | ||
| She blames Donald Trump for everything. | ||
| She fled America in order to get away from Donald Trump. | ||
| She just constantly talks about him. | ||
| So it's a weird pathology. | ||
| And, you know, we'll pray for her and things like that. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So here we go. | ||
| This is Donald Trump's unfulfilled promise from the same election, arguably more famous than the first promise because it has wider-ranging implications. | ||
| So Trump just made good on the first promise. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's go to the second promise. | |
| It's just awfully good that someone with the temperament of Donald Trump is not in charge of the law in our country. | ||
| Because you'd be in jail. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Secretary Clinton. | |
| *crowd cheers* *sad | ||
| music* It's the try not to laugh challenge. | ||
| And it's the try not to smile challenge. | ||
| It's impossible. | ||
| You can't not laugh. | ||
| Donald Trump's comedic time, perfect. | ||
| And during that debate, Donald Trump was talking about how Hillary passes laws in order for her and her elite friends to get out of jail. | ||
| Donald Trump started his entire presidential campaign talking about elite pedophiles and how they all need to be locked up. | ||
| He did it on stage at CPAC. | ||
| We have the clips to prove it. | ||
| He talked about Prince Andrew and the island. | ||
| No one even knew about any of this stuff. | ||
| Donald Trump was telling us where the bodies were buried, in the case of Hillary Clinton, quite literally. | ||
| And so now President Trump talking about, well, maybe I'm going to go back to that because in the first Term, Donald Trump did not lock up Hillary Clinton, even though he could have. | ||
| Perhaps he should have, you could argue. | ||
| But Donald Trump thought, and many, many guests, for instance, Stephen Miller was on the show about eight months ago. | ||
| No, about 10 months ago. | ||
| Stephen Miller was on the show, and he talked about this and how, like, they decided not to prosecute Hillary Clinton for the good of the country. | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| Donald Trump feels differently now. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Yeah, so, you know, we had Hillary Clinton down to whatever we wanted to do with her, and I felt it was inappropriate. | ||
| She's the wife of a president. | ||
| She was the Secretary of State. | ||
| And we could have done a very big number. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And I said, we don't want to be doing that. | ||
| Let's, you know, put it into the country and not. | ||
| The concept of putting her in jail, indicting her, all the things that you have to do, you know, it's tough stuff. | ||
| And I said, we don't want to do that. | ||
| In fact, you remember I made speeches when I mentioned her name. | ||
| They started lock, lock, lock. | ||
| And I said, no, no, this is after we won. | ||
| We just won. | ||
| And I said, we have to get back to it. | ||
| We want to heal. | ||
| And yet they did it to me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So I feel differently. | ||
| I mean, I'm a human being. | ||
| I have my feelings too. | ||
| And so I feel differently about it. | ||
| Obama, what he did was terrible. | ||
| What Brennan did and Clapper and Comey and all these lightweights are, I mean, they're stupid people, actually, but what they did, and so unnecessary. | ||
| And they made it really hard. | ||
| But ultimately, I don't know, they toughen you up. | ||
| You either learn that you can do that. | ||
| How many people could handle that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I've had so many people said, how did you handle that every day? | ||
| And they come up with these different scams. | ||
| They're all scams. | ||
| And they're still doing it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, they're doing it now. | |
| So President Trump right now, entre social, up with this graphic. | ||
| Nothing happens until this happens. | ||
| Until this happens, nothing will change. | ||
| You can see Hillary Clinton there behind bars. | ||
| Very much boomer artwork here. | ||
| But nonetheless, President Trump continuing to post this morning talking about how Obama must be indicted. | ||
| It's time to indict Obama, the traitor, for treason. | ||
| Donald Trump popping these up. | ||
| Donald Trump has also posted, of course, an AI of Obama getting arrested in his very presence. | ||
| Treason! | ||
| Evidence proves that both the FBI and the CIA were deeply involved in the historic 2020 election lie. | ||
| Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian propaganda. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hmm. | |
| Well, that's interesting. | ||
| Why would Donald Trump suddenly change tune and start talking about the 2020 election? | ||
| If only there was a show that told you that that's exactly what's about to happen. | ||
| General Flynn on our show yesterday dropped a bombshell. | ||
| It's since gone thermonuclear online. | ||
| It's been seen by millions. | ||
| And if you were watching live and you said, wow, that's really fascinating. | ||
| General Flynn says the major bombshell that is going to be released next and is in the act of being declassified right now was the CIA's role in rigging the 2020 election. | ||
| Is that what President Trump means when he posts this up on Truth Social? | ||
| Talking about the CIA directors who got together to collude to lie about Hunter Biden's laptop. | ||
| You would recall that, of course, this laptop story broke in the weeks leading up to the election. | ||
| The election was not particularly, it wasn't a runaway election one way or the other. | ||
| In fact, Donald Trump was looking like he was the potential odds-on favorite. | ||
| All you needed was to have a little bit of a breakdown in the Biden facade, whether that be his creepy family or his health or his kids and his criminality. | ||
| And this was very much a Hillary Clinton 2.0. | ||
| You remember Hillary Clinton email case gets opened wide up in the days leading up to the election. | ||
| James Comey, right, having to do the cleanup job there. | ||
| The Comey family is the deep state cleanup operators. | ||
| They're like the janitors for the deep state. | ||
| Anyway, the point is, is that General Flynn told us yesterday this was going to happen. | ||
| And here's President Trump posting about it. | ||
| Get ready. | ||
| We're about to shift gears up to the big one, the 2020 election. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Can you frame this for us? | ||
| What are we about to see? | ||
| Yeah, so two things. | ||
| And there's still a lot of internal undermining within the CIA. | ||
| That has to end. | ||
| The exposure, though, that I think we're about to see is additional exposure of the current evidence that we are seeing with the undermining in the 2016, 2017 timeframe. | ||
| And I think the big one that's going to come out, and I think it's going to be even worse, is 2020. | ||
| So 2020 was the coup. | ||
| As I've said very bluntly, the plan initially was Obama, Hillary, but that got stopped by Trump and the American people. | ||
| And so then they had to figure out how to do it again. | ||
| And the real coup was 2020. | ||
| And I think, you know, I wouldn't expect something in the next 24 hours because I think that there's some machinations going on inside of the government right now. | ||
| But I think a lot of what we're going to learn leading up to 2020 is the coup. | ||
| And remember, President Trump was the president at that time, right? | ||
| The 51 Intel and defense advisors that signed the Hunter Biden letter. | ||
| I mean, that's public now. | ||
| There's a lot of other things that are not public that led up to 2020 that led to the coup and the rigged election where Uncle Joe became the president of the United States. | ||
| And God, look at what we're learning about the Autopen, right? | ||
| So more to come. | ||
| That's where I think, you know, if you want to put a finger on what's next, it's that. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| So that would be, I mean, President Trump wasn't necessarily in power. | ||
| He was the president-elect, but you're talking about the 2020 election where it's sedition against the actual elected president in office. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| It's a bombshell, General. | ||
| It really is. | ||
| I mean, to me, that's, you know, everything that happened to me and to Trump and to the country, we got, we're now seeing that. | ||
| Now it's how they then decided, once they couldn't get him to say to get out 25th Amendment or whatever, or just to say, screw it, you got you, Pence, you can have it. | ||
| When they couldn't do that, they had to figure out another way to do it. | ||
| And the 2020 election is going to be, I think, the real revelation that we as the world and certainly the American people are going to see. | ||
| And to me, that is going to then allow President Trump to make some decisions about how our elections will be conducted. | ||
| That's the real story here. | ||
| Fascinating. | ||
| So they're going to use this then as a predicate. | ||
| He's already signed the executive order to secure the elections. | ||
| They're going to use this as an example of how subterfuge can happen from inside of the system to rig elections against presidents. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| And that's not just here in the United States of America. | ||
| That's worldwide. | ||
| Well, we're very proud of the questions that we ask on this program. | ||
| They have a tendency to get to the truth. | ||
| And General Flynn making some bombshell claims there that what's going to happen next is criminal charges for the 2020 election. | ||
| I mean, I'll take the 2016 election first. | ||
| Let's begin there, the low-hanging fruit, and then move our way up. | ||
| But this seems to align with what CIA Director John Ratcliffe has said. | ||
| What would still be stored at the CIA that we don't already know? | ||
| I mean, it seems like they've done an enormous amount of disclosures. | ||
| This is a great question for Tulsi. | ||
| We'll be sure to ask. | ||
| They've done a ton of disclosures. | ||
| And they've really gotten to the heart of it. | ||
| I mean, they've released the emails. | ||
| They've released the draft president's daily brief. | ||
| They've released incredibly highly classified information. | ||
| You can see how they're plotting against General Flynn live. | ||
| So what else do they have? | ||
| Let's listen to Director Ratcliffe talk about this. | ||
| And with the framing of General Flynn, saying, no, no, no, you don't understand. | ||
| We're moving on to the next stolen election. | ||
| We're going to start processing. | ||
| We're going to hit them so hard and from so many fronts. | ||
| We've already defunded USAID. | ||
| They have no more slush funds. | ||
| We're going to strip them down with the legal fees. | ||
| We're going to break these people. | ||
| The process is the punishment. | ||
| We're going to do to them what they did to Trump. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Look, our audience knows this, thanks to you and thanks to Devin Nunez. | ||
| Our audience is well aware of what took place here, but we want to see accountability. | ||
| Many of the statute of limitations have expired. | ||
| It's been almost 10 years for many of these folks who did this. | ||
| But John Brennan testified to Congress, and so did Hillary Clinton, within five years. | ||
| I think it was in 2020 and then again in 2021. | ||
| Are those statute of limitations still live? | ||
| Tell me if, in fact, we could see a criminal prosecution here, as you just the other day, three weeks ago, have in fact referred criminal referrals to the DOJ. | ||
| Well, Maria, so part of what came out last week was about how John Brennan, Clapper, Comey, they all pushed the known fake steel dossier into intelligence community assessments and as the basis for crossfire hurricane and all that. | ||
| But what hasn't come out yet and what's going to come out is the underlying intelligence that I have spent the last few months making recommendations about final declassification and sent that to the Department of Justice that will come out in the John Durham Report Classified Annex. | ||
| And what that intelligence shows, Maria, is that part of this was a Hillary Clinton plan, but part of it was an FBI plan to be an accelerant to that fake steel dossier, to those fake Russia collusion claims by pouring oil on the fire, by amplifying the lie and burying the truth of what Hillary Clinton was up to. | ||
| And you're right, Maria. | ||
| John Brennan testified to John Durham in August of 2020. | ||
| He also testified to the House Oversight Committee in 2022. | ||
| Hillary Clinton testified before John Durham under oath in 2022. | ||
| James Comey testified before the Senate Committee in September 2020. | ||
| All of that's within the last five years. | ||
| And much of that testimony is, frankly, completely inconsistent with what our underlying intelligence that is about to be declassified in the Durham Annex, what that reflects. | ||
| And so, you know, Pam Bandi does have a strike force. | ||
| It is a different Department of Justice, a different FBI, and an opportunity to look at how these people really did conspire to run a hoax, a fraud on the American people and against Donald Trump's presidency. | ||
| What hasn't come out is the underlying proof of what data they were looking at. | ||
| And this was all contained inside of the Durham Annex, the Durham Report. | ||
| Durham Annex will show that FBI officials knew that the Clinton campaign planned the entire Russia collusion hoax, that they paid Russian spies and people that are on the payroll of sanctioned Russian oligarchs in order to create this hoax, | ||
| that the FBI then put the entire good faith and credit of the FBI behind this hoax, merchandised it, whitewashed it through the intelligence community, and then presented it as fact, even though they knew it was fake and they knew it was campaign opposition research that was created by Russian spies and paid for by Donald Trump's political enemies. | ||
| The FBI were co-conspirators in this, and that is what the Durham Annex will show. | ||
| Now, this is what John Solomon has been reporting out, and he says that we are about to see all of it. | ||
| And that will, of course, be the coup de grace for the conspiracy against Donald Trump. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, this is John Solomon reporting last night about this report and stating, hey, listen, get ready for the Durham Annex. | ||
| It's going to change everything. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Go. | |
| Is it your belief that the Durham Annex would show that FBI officials knew the Clinton campaign, planned this all along? | ||
| Not only that, Sean, the Clinton annex is going to show there was foreign intelligence. | ||
| A foreign enemy had determined that the FBI had agreed to be the accelerant, that they were going to be conspirators joining with Hillary Clinton to give credence to her fake narrative. | ||
| And that's exactly what happened. | ||
| When people see what the foreign intelligence is and then how the FBI acted, it matches extremely closely. | ||
| This is a bombshell Senator Grassley's going to release as early as tomorrow. | ||
| A great investigative reporting, John Solomon, and incredible work. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, he notes Chuck Grassley will be the one on the Judiciary Committee releasing it. | ||
| Here's Chuck Grassley approximately 12 hours ago. | ||
| Thumb drives containing unreviewed info on Clinton email scandal and mishandling of highly classified information have been sitting in the FBI offshoot office since 2018. | ||
| I sent a letter with House Intel Chair Crawford asking Director Patel to review these materials and report back ASAP. | ||
| Chuck Grassley getting some major engagement there, 14,000 likes, 5,000 repos. | ||
| Chuck Grassley seems to be zeroing in on Hillary Clinton. | ||
| What John Solomon said there is a monster deal, that the FBI were willing co-conspirators. | ||
| And this aligns perfectly with what Dan Bongino said this weekend. | ||
| We're very proud that we predicted exactly what Dan was talking about here. | ||
| And we used our sources in order to get that information. | ||
| Dan Bongino saying the director and I are committed to stamping out public corruption and political weaponization of law enforcement and intelligence operators. | ||
| Remember, the FBI is an intelligence agency. | ||
| He's also part of the strike force that is looking into this. | ||
| Dan Bongino operates out of a classified SCIF, so he's able to see all of the information that we can't see. | ||
| Apparently, what's been declassified is just the tip of the iceberg. | ||
| Dan Bongino is going through the real meat of it all. | ||
| It's a priority for us, but what I've learned over the course of my properly predicated necessary investigations into these aforementioned matters has shocked me down to my core. | ||
| This is what made this go so viral. | ||
| 20 million people saw it, 48,000 likes, 233,000 reposts. | ||
| This line right here. | ||
| Dan Bongino is not effeminate. | ||
| Dan Bongino is not somebody who uses flowery language. | ||
| He is not a limp-wristed, lispy individual who is going to over-emotionalize everything. | ||
| Yeah, that's right. | ||
| He's not writing letters to Epstein. | ||
| That's exactly right. | ||
| With his typewriter and his paintbrush. | ||
| And his, what's the funny little French hat called? | ||
| Not a toupe. | ||
| A beret. | ||
| Not a toupee. | ||
| Toupe and a beret, maybe, you know, whatever. | ||
| Damn, Dan Bongino is bald. | ||
| I would never tell him to wear a toupee. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| He looks great. | ||
| He owns it. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Dan Bongino. | ||
| Good bald. | ||
| What I'm saying here is that Dan Bongino, when he uses language like this, people pay attention. | ||
| Shocked me down to my core. | ||
| I'll never be the same after learning what I've just learned. | ||
| We can't run a republic like this. | ||
| What Dan Bongino most likely just learned and is reading through is the Durham Annex. | ||
| May also have something to do with the 2020 election. | ||
| But what we can assume is found in the Durham Annex, which is a very hot and the most classified part of the Durham report, is all of the original source documents, emails, handwritten notes, correspondence, text messages, things that were so classified and such a highly classified Intel labeling that not even John Durham with his special investigation would be able to release them to the public. | ||
| But they've been housed here and secured by Dan Bongino's going through them. | ||
| And what do they show? | ||
| Here's what they show according to John Solomon's reporting and according to all the reporting that we've been doing and structure building that we've been doing on the show. | ||
| They show that the FBI, the agency that Dan Bongino is a part of, it makes this post make perfect sense. | ||
| Please put the post back up. | ||
| This post makes perfect sense. | ||
| If Dan Bongino is approaching this from the FBI's perspective, what he's finding out is the intelligence organ that I'm working for worked with Hillary Clinton to produce, what did John Solomon say? | ||
| Foreign actors, Russian spies, they worked with Russian spies in order to attack Trump. | ||
| Not the other way around. | ||
| Stop yelling. | ||
| But not the other way around. | ||
| The official narrative is the opposite of the truth. | ||
| It was the FBI working with Russians to attack Trump, not Trump working with Russians to attack our institutions and rig an election. | ||
| It was the exact opposite. | ||
| The FBI knew what Hillary Clinton was doing, and the annex release, which may well happen today, according to all available sourcing, will prove that once and for all. | ||
| General Flynn proving right again. | ||
| He's been telling our show this for a very long time. | ||
| And Flynn says, once they carve up this whale, get ready. | ||
| The next one's coming. | ||
| 2020 election. | ||
| One final note on all of this. | ||
| Obviously, President Trump is laying the groundwork for some major charges. | ||
| We wouldn't know anything about this without Devin Nunez. | ||
| Devin Nunez now currently runs Truth Social. | ||
| So he's still very, very closely connected with the president. | ||
| He probably sends him the memes that Donald Trump posts on Truth Social. | ||
| The point is, like this one, it's time to indict Obama. | ||
| The point is that Devin Nunez knows this issue better than anyone and can speak to what actually happened here. | ||
| What he's saying is, well, it's very scary if you're one of the co-conspirators. | ||
| Listen to this. | ||
| Yeah, I think the conspiracy continues, and I think that's what the Justice Department and the strike force has to look at. | ||
| I look at this all as one big hoax. | ||
| You know, that starts with the Clinton campaign hoax. | ||
| It becomes Obama's hoax. | ||
| It leads into the fake impeachment and the phony whistleblower. | ||
| It goes into the Hunter Biden laptop. | ||
| And then finally, at the end of all this, there's a raid at Mar-a-Lago. | ||
| And that's going to be critically important. | ||
| That team has to be looked at. | ||
| Jack Smith and all the people that drugged the American people wasted, I don't know, $40, $50 million of government money essentially on a witch hunt against President Trump to do what? | ||
| To stop him from being elected. | ||
| So I think they have to look at it in the hole. | ||
| If you looked at what Director Ratcliffe has been saying, the conspiracy continues and they continue to just, you know, if you tell a lie long enough, they're hoping that it will become the truth and enough people will believe them. | ||
| I'm hopeful that this polling now is a wake-up call for the Democratic Party, that they need to stop listening to the 1% of their party that have been leading it down a very dark place that has done not only a lot of destruction, like we talked about, the things that happened to President Trump and his team, but I think more importantly, Sean, is this. | ||
| Would we have the massacre that's occurring in Russia and Ukraine today had Donald Trump actually been able to be president for real in those four years when he, if he wasn't under investigation, could have sat down with Putin? | ||
| Remember, as soon as Trump's out of there, what happens? | ||
| Putin immediately starts to do really bad things, and now you have millions of people that are killed or casualties. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, the final piece of evidence here for what's about to happen. | ||
| Erica Knight is in the private sector. | ||
| I guess her description here on Access Communications Strategist. | ||
| Anyway, she's a wonderful individual, and she's somebody who's very, very close with Cash and Dan. | ||
| And she does crisis and critical communications for Team Trump. | ||
| And she doesn't post often on social media. | ||
| But she's a wonderful person, and she's we know her, right, on the show. | ||
| You know, she'd book people on the show. | ||
| We'd work with her to get cash on the show back in the day. | ||
| Anyway, the point is that she's somebody who knows a thing about a thing. | ||
| All right. | ||
| And she posted this. | ||
| It's very interesting timing. | ||
| Right after Dan Bongino had that viral tweet. | ||
| And I'm going to just play you the first couple of seconds of this. | ||
| It's a documentary about Cash and Devin and what they learned about RussiaGate. | ||
| But she says this in her post. | ||
| The man who exposed the Russia hoax is now the FBI director. | ||
| He's the one receiving the criminal referral for DNI Gabbard. | ||
| Told you so. | ||
| Well, what does he tell us? | ||
| Let's just listen to the first couple of seconds here from Cash Patel and what Cash Patel's digital voice online, Erica Knight, has to say. | ||
| All of these things sort of started coming together in a very unusual fashion. | ||
| I said, Devin, we're following the money, and I'm going to tell you right now that the DNC and Hillary paid for this. | ||
| It was 9 a.m. on a weekday, and he literally looks at me and he goes, Cash, if you're going to start drinking this morning, get out of my office. | ||
| It always goes back to the money, and it's the easiest thing to follow because you have to document it in some fashion or you got to move it in some way. | ||
| We were able to, pursuant to the judge's authority, allow myself and one other colleague to visit banks' attorneys and review in closed session the records. | ||
| What do the records show? | ||
| There it is right there. | ||
| Perkins Cooey. | ||
| The payments for the steel dossier. | ||
| But what is the steel dossier? | ||
| Russian disinformation. | ||
| What is Russian disinformation? | ||
| They worked with Russian spies. | ||
| They worked with a foreign actor in order to create this hoax. | ||
| And this is what they're saying now, is that the FBI was complicit in all of it. | ||
| So you can see all the pieces coming together. | ||
| It's an exciting time. | ||
| We are locked in, and there's so much more information. | ||
| We're going to be prepared for today. | ||
| Many, many little birdies are telling us today is going to be a very, very big day. | ||
| So we're excited to have Tulsi on the program. | ||
| We're also excited to have our favorite pollster in America from Ras Musin, Mark Mitchell on the program. | ||
| We'll get to him in just a moment. | ||

All right. | |
| Boy, oh boy. | ||
| We have a fascinating story about Jeffrey Epstein here. | ||
| I can't wait to talk about it with our next guest, the great Mark Mitchell of Rasmussen, who comes on to give us the hard facts and the data. | ||
| Let's rock and roll. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's rock and roll. | |
| you you Ooh, that new guest stinger is sharp. | ||
| We are sharpening things up around here, Mark. | ||
| How are these polls? | ||
| Are these polls looking sharp for Donald Trump? | ||
| It's been kind of all over the place. | ||
| I assume the singularity hasn't happened, and Donald Trump hasn't become the most popular president in American history at this time. | ||
| Am I wrong? | ||
| Mark, you're muted. | ||
| Yeah, sorry, bud. | ||
| Sorry, my friend. | ||
| Why don't we pop Mark off? | ||
| He'll work with our studio, and we have technicians who can help Mark and get him rocking and rolling and back in action. | ||
| Producers, just tell me what's up. | ||
| Trump claims Jeffrey Epstein poached young women working at the Mar-a-Lago spa. | ||
| This is pretty unique. | ||
| This is a story that happened yesterday because President Trump said on an interview in Air Force One that the reason why he banished Jeffrey Epstein was that he was a creep. | ||
| Now, this is backed up by an enormous amount of available evidence. | ||
| But it really caught our attention that he talked about Virginia Roberts. | ||
| Virginia Roberts is, of course, the individual who was the chief whistleblower about Jeffrey Epstein, about his sex ring and pedophilic operation. | ||
| She is so renowned in her whistleblowing that, well, that she was able to get multi-million dollar settlements from the royal family. | ||
| She's the only individual, as far as we know, who's been able to get royals stripped of their titles in the modern era, Prince Andrew. | ||
| That all happened. | ||
| Virginia Roberts is somebody who spoke to the press with regularity and talked about her experience with President Trump here in the deposition. | ||
| Virginia Roberts spoke about Donald Trump in this document, saying, yeah, I used to work at Mar-a-Wago, actually. | ||
| And did Donald Trump ever creep on? | ||
| Did Donald Trump ever do anything inappropriate towards you? | ||
| She said, no, not at all. | ||
| Did Donald Trump ever flirt with you? | ||
| No, he didn't. | ||
| That's completely inaccurate. | ||
| Did you ever see Donald Trump with Jeffrey Epstein or at his home? | ||
| No. | ||
| How about on his island? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| How about on his mansion? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| How about on his ranch? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| How about on his plane? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| This is the chief Epstein witness. | ||
| Now, she said very different things, obviously, about Prince Andrew, about Bill Clinton, Jeffrey Epstein himself, Jeffrey Epstein himself saying that Bill Clinton liked him young and so on and so forth, yet Bill Clinton has never been questioned about this. | ||
| Donald Trump's been asked every question under the sun. | ||
| Here is Donald Trump explaining on his plane yesterday the inflection point where he kicked out Jeffrey Epstein because of Virginia Roberts. | ||
| And the reason why this is so important is because Virginia Roberts said, I'm not suicidal. | ||
| There are very dangerous people that want to suicide me. | ||
| She has said it. | ||
| She has said this. | ||
| Do we have that post? | ||
| Do we have that tweet? | ||
| No? | ||
| She posted this on social media. | ||
| She said, I'm not suicidal. | ||
| There are many people who want to see me quieted. | ||
| Don't forget about me if I die. | ||
| Not long after posting this, Virginia Roberts gets hit by a bus in the Australian Outback, one of the most rural places on earth. | ||
| Virginia Roberts then goes on to post from the hospital that she only has days to live. | ||
| Then days after that, Virginia Roberts is found dead. | ||
| Seems there are no coincidences. | ||
| Here's the original post. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| So this is President Trump not forgetting her. | ||
| She says, please, for the sake of my family, don't let this go away and protect them. | ||
| Too many evil people want to see me quieted. | ||
| Now, this is, by the way, a perfect individual who we'd love if she were alive today, she would be the single most booked guest in the history of television, podcasts, any show. | ||
| I would travel. | ||
| She was living in Australia. | ||
| I would travel to Australia to sit down and do an interview with her. | ||
| We would have done anything in order to get Virginia Roberts on the record talking about this because she was a firsthand witness to all of it. | ||
| She would have been able to expose all of it. | ||
| We have some of her deposition testimony, but that's all we got. | ||
| So ladies and gentlemen, here's President Trump not forgetting Virginia Roberts, name-dropping her, saying she was my employee. | ||
| I treated her well. | ||
| She worked in the spa. | ||
| A bunch of young people work in the spa, right? | ||
| It's a club. | ||
| And Jeffrey Epstein was inappropriate with them, and I banished him the moment I found out. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mr. President, Epstein has a certain reputation, obviously. | |
| Just curious, were some of the workers that were taken from you, were some of them young women? | ||
| Were some of them young women? | ||
| Well, I don't want to say, but everyone knows the people that were taken. | ||
| And the concept of taking people that work for me is bad. | ||
| But that story has been pretty well out there. | ||
| And the answer is yes, they work. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| In the spa. | ||
| People that work in the spa. | ||
| It's a great spa, one of the best spas in the world at Parlox. | ||
| And people were taken out of the spa. | ||
| Hired by him. | ||
| In other words, gone. | ||
| And other people would come and complain, this guy is taking people from the spa. | ||
| I didn't know that. | ||
| And then when I heard about it, I told him, I said, listen, we don't want you taking our people, whether it was spa or not spa. | ||
| I don't want him taking people. | ||
| And he was fine. | ||
| And then not too long after that, he did it again. | ||
| And I said, out of here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mr. President, did one of those stolen persons include Virginia Jeffrey? | |
| I don't know. | ||
| I think she worked at the spa. | ||
| I think so. | ||
| I think that was one of the people. | ||
| He stole her. | ||
| And by the way, she had no complaints about us, as you know. | ||
| None whatsoever. | ||
| I had the privilege. | ||
| Just allow me one quick personal story. | ||
| I had the privilege of walking back through the guts of Trump Doral, Trump's big golf course in Miami with Donald Trump and with his son, Don Jr. | ||
| And it's not that I'm that important. | ||
| I just happened to be traveling for an event they were both at, and I was able to sort of tag along as they were walking back through their properties. | ||
| And to a man, the staff at these properties were standing At attention, and got every single one of them got a handshake, a photo, a clap on the back. | ||
| The president, even though he was late to his speech, spoke with everyone, some of them in broken English, barely able to speak to Donald Trump, but Donald Trump stopped, listened, engaged with them. | ||
| Trump is renowned for his love of his staff. | ||
| Some of the key people in the White House, like Dan Scavino, have been there for 30 years with Donald Trump. | ||
| Dan Scavino was Trump's caddy. | ||
| He was a teenager. | ||
| He's a very, very loyal person. | ||
| And Trump found out that Jeffrey Epstein was abusing the young women. | ||
| Here's the article from Business Insider, Jeffrey Epstein accuser Virginia Guffray, didn't think Donald Trump was involved at all in Jeffrey Epstein's creditor ring. | ||
| And she knew both of them. | ||
| She worked for Trump. | ||
| It was actually Virginia Roberts who that the key Epstein witness since he suicided is sort of the key to everything here. | ||
| I suppose now you have to rest on the words of Jelaine Maxwell that this is a critical piece of information. | ||
| And Donald Trump just being out with it and like saying, I did nothing wrong. | ||
| Talk to the real criminals here, Bill Clinton. | ||
| Have you ever heard Bill Clinton question about this at all? | ||
| Donald Trump's having to go back into like the minutiae of who he employed and when and how. | ||
| Has Bill Clinton ever been asked about this at all? | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, somebody who could answer that question joining us once more. | ||
| I think we're all set with the audio now is the great Mark Mitchell from Ras Musen Reports. | ||
| Let's do the stinger one more time. | ||
| am. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| you you Mark, welcome back. | ||
| We got you now? | ||
| Yeah, I'm just going to blame the H-1B engineering. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think that's probably what it is. | |
| You know, it always happens. | ||
| It always happens whenever we're talking about China spying or whenever we're talking about Epstein, there always seems to be some type of technical difficulty. | ||
| It's very interesting. | ||
| Third-party app failed. | ||
| Great. | ||
| What should it have been? | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Okay, so talk me through it. | ||
| My question still stands. | ||
| What are you seeing right now in the polls for Trump? | ||
| I sort of see it all over the place. | ||
| It's been a little schizophrenic. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Talk to me. | |
| Well, this is a critical time because everybody's still on the beach and they're going to come back in September. | ||
| And I don't know what opinion is going to glom onto. | ||
| And what we really have right now is this situation of two warring hoaxes. | ||
| And that's really what it is. | ||
| It's the, you know, it's Donald Trump uncovering the roots of the Russian collusion hoax that still a lot of people believe in. | ||
| And then this Epstein hoax that the left is really going to run with this idea that Trump is covering up. | ||
| And we have new polling back on that. | ||
| It is kind of getting into cover-up territory. | ||
| And I was one of the first people to call out three weeks ago, this is going to become a wedge issue. | ||
| You can't sweep this one under the rug. | ||
| You have to get out in front of it. | ||
| And they didn't. | ||
| And they're in a much trickier situation. | ||
| But the polling is Donald Trump's at negative three today, net approval. | ||
| Is that horrible? | ||
| Is that Joe Biden territory? | ||
| No, it's not. | ||
| Joe Biden got to like negative 20 four years ago in September after Afghanistan. | ||
| But that was also, you know, the beginning of the fall political cycle in the first year. | ||
| Like that's opinions are going to move. | ||
| And this could become Trump's Afghanistan, to be honest with you, if they don't handle it better. | ||
| But he was at net plus eight back in the middle of June. | ||
| And since then, he's took out the Iranian nuclear program. | ||
| He's signed his signature legislation into law. | ||
| You know, he's had a whole heck of a lot of positive economic news. | ||
| And Americans are not rewarding him for that. | ||
| He's fallen 11% since then. | ||
| And so what could that possibly be because of? | ||
| I can only surmise now, but I can tell you that the polling underlying the Epstein thing shows that there's a really big rift between what Trump supporters believe and what the Trump administration is saying. | ||
| And so I think that's probably the biggest situation because it isn't just about Epstein, in my opinion. | ||
| It's about accountability, which is one of the key themes of the Trump administration. | ||
| Not disclosure, not transparency, but accountability. | ||
| And that's, I have lots of stuff to support that. | ||
| And it looks like people all of a sudden got, you know, dumped cold water on them that there is not going to be accountability for what they've been told and believed for decades is that rich and wealthy predators are going to Epstein Island and getting away scot-free with a two-tier justice and that there isn't going to be accountability for that. | ||
| And so what is there going to be accountability for? | ||
| And you could say, all right, well, maybe this stuff with Obama, Crossfire Hurricane, and Hillary Clinton. | ||
| But if you go to Google search trends right now and just type in Clinton and Obama and compare it to what people are searching for, the term Epstein, those are bigger names. | ||
| They're former presidents. | ||
| People are searching for Epstein right now. | ||
| They're not searching for Clinton and Obama. | ||
| And this stuff that might come out that shows that these people are complicit in essentially a coup, I don't know how that's going to affect opinion. | ||
| This is a really tricky thing about the way that public handles this stuff is that, first off, Trump does not have full narrative control like he did back in January or February, March. | ||
| And second, as this stuff comes out, what it's reinforcing, in my opinion, in voters' heads is that they just can't trust the government. | ||
| Like that's the problem, right? | ||
| Is that you tell me that the CIA and the FBI and the Hillary Clinton campaign colluded to try and undermine Trump's administration. | ||
| That just confirms their opinion that the FBI was corrupted under Democrats, but hasn't been fixed yet. | ||
| And so we'll have to see. | ||
| I mean, I applaud them for holding people accountable, but people want arrests. | ||
| And I have numbers to back that up. | ||
| Yeah, we have the numbers right here on the screen. | ||
| Please pop it back up. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So here it is. | ||
| The red line is people searching for Clinton. | ||
| You can obviously see those searches ticking up. | ||
| And then the yellow line is Obama. | ||
| And then the blue line is Epstein. | ||
| Yeah, so the last 30 days, too, people are searching for Epstein 10 times more than they were just a month ago. | ||
| It's absolutely wild. | ||
| And so Trump can say, oh, well, you know, I'm going to let the DOJ handle it. | ||
| We're going to dribble stuff out or whatever. | ||
| It's not going away. | ||
| If you look at Reddit politics, which in my opinion can be considered like the left's narrative R ⁇ D, it's all wall-to-wall Epstein right now. | ||
| And so they found a very powerful wedge issue that they're going to run with in the mainstream media, and it's going to drown out a lot of stuff. | ||
| All of this stuff, no, Trump's numbers will probably recover, but let's also acknowledge that the Democrats are leading by four points in the generic ballot right now. | ||
| And so automatically, I'm looking forward to November of 2026. | ||
| And it's like, well, can the Republicans win that? | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| There's a lot of ifs. | ||
| If Act Blue gets shut down, who's still raising $400 million a quarter, if the Republicans redistrict Ohio and Texas. | ||
| But it's like, why don't you just sign good laws? | ||
| They've signed 30 pieces of legislation. | ||
| Only five of them do anything. | ||
| They're hardly in session at all. | ||
| They're literally fighting Trump on whether or not to speed up his nominations, which aren't happening. | ||
| And so like, this is what makes me so mad. | ||
| And I'm glad to be on. | ||
| I need all the followers. | ||
| I've lost like 2,000 or 3,000 followers in the last week just for crapping on Republicans. | ||
| But Republicans are failing big because Donald Trump was delivered a mandate to fix the government, to restructure our economy, and to usher in a golden age. | ||
| A majority of voters, a strong majority agreed that Trump was going to bring a golden age in January. | ||
| And Mike Johnson stood on the steps of Congress on November 12th and promised everybody that they're going to raise an American first flag over the halls of Congress. | ||
| And he was going to work with everybody to support Trump's mandate and give Americans the Congress that they deserve. | ||
| Has that happened? | ||
| No. | ||
| And people are starting to notice. | ||
| That's why Trump built the big tent of crossover Democrats and independents. | ||
| Independents are really pissed about the Epstein stuff. | ||
| Only 14% of them say that the case is closed. | ||
| And Trump is underwater in the teens with independence right now on job approval. | ||
| He was plus six back in January. | ||
| So he's losing independence over things, not just Epstein, but over the fact that the one big beautiful bill, independence, thought it didn't cut enough. | ||
| And so that's the problem. | ||
| He can have these wins. | ||
| He might not get credit for it. | ||
| And Republicans are definitely not currently getting credit for any of the stuff Trump is doing, in my opinion. | ||
| Well, yeah, it's not just your opinion, Mark. | ||
| The reason why I love booking you is that you bring this hard data and we're able to assess these things through what the American people believe and also just the reality, whether I like it or not. | ||
| And it is kind of a fascinating moment, isn't it, man? | ||
| Like this Epstein thing is a creation of the internet. | ||
| It is not something that was given to us as a news cycle via broadcast or corporate TV at all. | ||
| It is something that is lived inside of meme chats and it's something that is lived inside of people's theories online. | ||
| And I believe that that was the great mishandling probably is not understanding what weaponized uranium-235 you were dealing with here. | ||
| Because when you finally come out with that memo and dash it all down without revealing any information or evidence to back up your claims or showing your work and the memo's unsigned and it's undated and it's so mysterious and it's dropped in the middle of a super cycle for Trump, which is insane. | ||
| Like, you know, I just, you know, so much of it didn't make any sense. | ||
| I don't have a time machine and nor did anyone call me or ask me, Mark. | ||
| But I just wish that they had done what they're doing now. | ||
| Why wouldn't they just do that instead of writing the memo, right? | ||
| So instead of writing that memo, why not just say, okay, so the next stage of this is we're going to go interview Jelaine Maxwell and then we're going to go ask the courts for all of the documents and we're going to really do our best to get to the bottom of this. | ||
| And we haven't made any conclusion yet because, well, hell, Jelaine Maxwell is still alive in federal custody and nobody's ever talked to her. | ||
| So that just seems like such more logical way to go about it, you know, like what they're doing now. | ||
| Ultimately, what it comes down to is that I guess they don't fully understand public opinion because you're right. | ||
| It did start on the internet. | ||
| There's a huge legend and myth behind all of this Epstein stuff. | ||
| Some of it's probably true, but it was also very heavily leaned into in a way that if they were using it cynically, that's that's bad. | ||
| That's like wrong. | ||
| That's kind of lying. | ||
| But the thing is, is that there probably is fire to this smoke. | ||
| I think it's fair to say. | ||
| But Benny, we have an FBI that costs $11 billion a year. | ||
| Are they doing police work? | ||
| And I'll tell you, in my opinion, the numbers support the fact that Americans think that because of all of this, that police work is warranted. | ||
| Let me just like read the numbers. | ||
| So how in 2019, let me set the stage. | ||
| This happened right after Pam Bondi came out and said case close. | ||
| This is like we got these numbers back three days after the Axios article, I think maybe four days. | ||
| In 2019, Epstein was arrested on sex trafficking charges and was later found dead in his jail cell, which is more likely. | ||
| He was murdered or he committed suicide. | ||
| 47% murdered, 31% suicide. | ||
| Republicans, 50% murdered, 33% suicide. | ||
| So this is right after Cash Patel said nothing to see here. | ||
| The tapes are fine. | ||
| I've seen him. | ||
| He committed suicide. | ||
| Half of Republicans don't even believe him. | ||
| The FBI and DOJ recently concluded an investigation that found that Epstein committed suicide and that Epstein did not keep a client list of men involved in a sex trafficking operation. | ||
| Do you believe the FBI or DOJ? | ||
| Only 21% of America says yes. | ||
| 56% no. | ||
| Only 27% of Republicans. | ||
| 15% of independents say yes. | ||
| Only 15% of independents believe Trump's FBI and DOJ. | ||
| And Trump won independence. | ||
| That's why he won, because he won independence, which is closer to your opinion, the case is closed or that dozens of powerful and wealthy offenders need to face justice. | ||
| 16% say case is close. | ||
| 68% say face justice. | ||
| Only 14% of independents and 20% of Republicans say case is closed. | ||
| Now, we got these numbers back. | ||
| I know for a fact that they got to the Trump administration the very next day. | ||
| He was attacking his followers and saying they were weak and that he didn't want them on True Social. | ||
| That is a major, major problem. | ||
| This is like, oh my God, America does not trust my administration. | ||
| And I think it's a huge wake-up call that when you have an FBI under Biden that a majority of people say that is Joe Biden's personal Gestapo, just because you put Cash Patel in charge of it doesn't mean Americans have forgotten that the FBI can be a Gestapo. | ||
| And so them coming out and saying nothing to see here, it's not going to work. | ||
| It was the most obvious choice, in my opinion. | ||
| The Democrats are now going to run with this. | ||
| And they have for two or three weeks. | ||
| And we have new stuff now. | ||
| And the problem is, it looks like it's going to be, Americans are starting to think it's a cover-up. | ||
| And now it's very, it's much a different situation. | ||
| Weeks ago, Trump could have said, you know, like this is an important issue. | ||
| Maybe Pam Bondi misspoke. | ||
| There is something here. | ||
| We should look into it. | ||
| We're going to. | ||
| It would have gone away. | ||
| How likely is it that Trump administration officials are engaged in a cover-up to hide Trump's involvement in the Epstein case? | ||
| 45%, very likely, 15% somewhat. | ||
| That's 60%. | ||
| And so you've talked to me a lot about all these things. | ||
| There's always a 60% number when people are like, well, should you trust the government? | ||
| Like we had roughly 60% who said that January 6th was a Fed surrection. | ||
| The theme here is a lack of trust in the government. | ||
| And it's the same with Biden. | ||
| And it looks like it's going to be the same with Trump. | ||
| And ultimately, I think it comes down to people want arrests. | ||
| We don't have a question about arrests for Epstein, but we do. | ||
| Should officials who are involved in manipulating intelligence to get Trump be criminally prosecuted? | ||
| 57% yes, 26% no. | ||
| And then these are previews from a question we're in the field with now. | ||
| This is getting back to the Obama stuff. | ||
| Agree or disagree with this statement about the manipulation of intelligence in the Obama administration. | ||
| Accountability has to take place. | ||
| It is critical for the survival of our country that people who perpetrated such crimes are held accountable. | ||
| Talking about crossfire hurricane, that's a Mike Flynn quote. | ||
| 48% strongly agree. | ||
| 20% somewhat agree. | ||
| That's a 70% number. | ||
| And that gets back to the 30% trust the federal government. | ||
| 70% want this system fixed, and it's not happening. | ||
| Just because you're going to bring all of this economic positive news doesn't mean that people still didn't live through the Biden administration where the entire government was weaponized against the people. | ||
| So again, Trump can't fix all of that, but he's got to stop like making this error cost him like literally all of July in his polling numbers. | ||
| He should be soaring right now. | ||
| He's going to go into the fall of basically where every other president entered the fall. | ||
| And this one looked like it was going to be different. | ||
| Yeah, it did. | ||
| I can sense your extreme disappointment here. | ||
| J.D. Vance made a ton of news a day ago, taking this issue head on. | ||
| We hadn't heard J.D. Vance talk about it. | ||
| He had previously been very, very based on the Epstein question. | ||
| He'd been posting about it. | ||
| He'd been talking about it on Theovon podcast. | ||
| And then J.D. Vance finally was able to address this with the AP asking him a question. | ||
| And J.D. Vance says, listen, and I think this is a genius way to frame all of this. | ||
| We just got here. | ||
| It was the George Bush administration, the Biden administration, the Obama administration that gave Jeffrey Epstein so many passes and allowed him to skate and to do all of this. | ||
| And I think that that level of honesty about the real Epstein story, which the government is going to have to just come out and have a full press conference and a full like retelling and a reframing of all. | ||
| Now they're forced to. | ||
| They have to do it. | ||
| That was refreshing for me. | ||
| And the JD Vance answer, I think, did well and it played well with our audience. | ||
| You have polling out here from JD Vance. | ||
| And we'll just get to this very quickly in 2028. | ||
| You put him up against AOC and Gavin Newsome. | ||
| Do you see this being an issue heading into 20 for 2028? | ||
| I mean, it looks like J.D. Vance is doing fine against these two. | ||
| Has this affected JD Vance's numbers at all? | ||
| So we did head-to-heads a while ago. | ||
| This Emerson one that you're putting up looks pretty good. | ||
| My apologies, Emerson. | ||
| My apologies, Mark. | ||
| Well, when we pulled on Vance, it was a while back and it was really, quite frankly, too soon. | ||
| It looks like he's picking up more of Trump's voters, which is a positive sign. | ||
| That's something I predicted might be able to happen. | ||
| If Emerson's got him up three, we might have him up four or five, to be honest with you on Newsome. | ||
| And let's also acknowledge that Newsom did a really good job campaigning against himself in June. | ||
| And so that also could be driving what you see here. | ||
| I'm actually surprised Newsome's getting 42%. | ||
| We didn't have him hitting 40%. | ||
| But again, what I've seen in other head heads as well is that Vance might have a promising future. | ||
| He certainly says a lot of the right things, but he has not been on the public stage as long as Trump has, and he hasn't completely gotten all of Trump's support. | ||
| So there is something very specific about Trump. | ||
| He came in as an outsider. | ||
| He went through a lot of tribulations. | ||
| And so there is like basically a floor below which I don't think Trump's numbers will drop of people who just implicitly trust him. | ||
| Now, I guess we'll see if that holds. | ||
| And so anybody who's not Trump is going to have a problem. | ||
| He just doesn't have the same, they don't have the same fervor. | ||
| And maybe he can build that. | ||
| But, you know, if you try and project into the future, like this is where it gets tricky, is that MAGA is going to die. | ||
| It's going to become something else because MAGA is Trump's thing. | ||
| And Trump is going to start losing political capital. | ||
| People might not like hearing that, but he's losing political capital right now. | ||
| A lot? | ||
| I don't know about a lot. | ||
| But what happens if he loses the midterms? | ||
| In 26, he's going to lose a heck of a lot more political capital. | ||
| And then people are going to start looking forward to, okay, well, who is the next standard bear? | ||
| You're going to have the establishment Republicans trying to dump MAGA in a ditch because that's not what their backers want at all. | ||
| And so they're going to put a lot of money. | ||
| You know, Ken Griffin or somebody is going to throw hundreds of millions at somebody like DeSantis or whatever, and that's going to be the establishment candidate. | ||
| Then they're probably going to run other establishment candidates. | ||
| There's going to be a power vacuum, probably some knife fights. | ||
| JD Vance probably should be the heir apparent, but he's going to make it different and make it his own, and it's going to be different. | ||
| And then the Republicans are probably going to try and do everything possible to shut him out. | ||
| And you have this very, very, very powerful machine that Trump was, people, I think, were hoping Trump would be able to fix. | ||
| And the Republicans are doing DC stuff more than Republicans ever have. | ||
| They really, really, really are. | ||
| That one big, beautiful bill, Trump might like it, but that just reeks of like a K-Street abomination. | ||
| It really does. | ||
| It was nice of them to put some codified executive orders in there, but I don't think anybody really feels good about it. | ||
| It was only net plus five when we asked if people approve or disapprove of it passing. | ||
| Only, I think, low 70% of Republicans approved of it. | ||
| Independents did not. | ||
| And four to one, Republicans said it didn't cut enough, and there was really no headline. | ||
| That's the problem, is that D.C. is going to keep passing these massive, massive bills because they have to use this process of reconciliation because they're unwilling to change the rules to do anything for America. | ||
| And that's how they keep getting paid. | ||
| They get all this pork shoved into these things, and there's no headline win. | ||
| It's like, oh, here's this massive bill. | ||
| Well, what did it do? | ||
| Well, it's going to make your tax situation better. | ||
| Well, like how? | ||
| Like what? | ||
| It didn't convert at all into any uptick. | ||
| In fact, Trump's numbers were plunging at the time. | ||
| I don't think it was all of it. | ||
| And so you have this situation where Republicans suck. | ||
| They're going to suck even worse. | ||
| And voters gave Trump and Republicans a chance together. | ||
| And now they're looking and they're saying, well, I might still support Trump, but he's not going to be on the ticket anymore. | ||
| And you're left with Republicans and a huge knife fight over the spoils of the MAGA corpse. | ||
| And it's really tough to predict where that's going to go. | ||
| But what I can predict is Republicans currently don't have apparently any other plan than to keep riding Trump's coattails and to redistrict. | ||
| like what they're still discussing now. | ||
| They acknowledge that they failed at getting his appointments through. | ||
| And they're still having introspective chats about whether or not we should like get rid of this blue slip veto thing or whether we should change some procedural rules. | ||
| And then they literally whiffed on allowing him to make recess appointments. | ||
| There's just unforced errors everywhere. | ||
| It's perverse. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I wish I'm sorry, I've just lost. | |
| Yeah, I mean, like, you know, I like I listen, I don't we're not trying to we're not trying to put lipstick on a pig here. | ||
| And nor are we trying to put, you know, silver linings on on dark clouds. | ||
| Your take then I guess on Texas is redistricting very quickly here. | ||
| I know you've been posting about it. | ||
| You said that the Texas is trying to save the GOP majority. | ||
| Is that what you believe is happening here? | ||
| The only plausible plan that I've heard how the Republicans plan to I mean, your viewers might not know this, but almost in every circumstance, when a party gets all three, you know, branches of the government, the Senate, the House and the presidency in the following midterm, they lose it. | ||
| And so history tells us that the Republicans are probably going to lose the House. | ||
| And so that's expected. | ||
| Everybody in D.C. expects it. | ||
| They're probably planning for it. | ||
| Democrats are probably figuring out all their new committee head positions. | ||
| They're trying to figure out what special commissions they're going to launch. | ||
| The first one's going to be Adam Schiff leading an Epstein commission. | ||
| They're already planning that. | ||
| And so if Trump wants to upset that, well, he needs a plan because the Republicans don't have one. | ||
| You have Texas redistricting. | ||
| Ohio is going to redistrict. | ||
| That'll probably pick up some seats. | ||
| But at the same time, you have money dumping into ActBlue. | ||
| You have all these Democrats all over the country running as moderates. | ||
| They're going to get all kinds of advertising money. | ||
| And so what's the plan? | ||
| Well, they aren't putting out good legislation. | ||
| They're not going to change the way D.C. operates. | ||
| They're not really helping Trump. | ||
| They don't appear to be breaking a sweat. | ||
| We asked, I think, two months ago now, Trump was handed a mandate. | ||
| Do you agree or disagree that Republicans in Congress are not delivering on Trump's mandate? | ||
| 60% of Republicans agreed. | ||
| Only 38% of Trump 2024 voters have a very favorable impression of the Republican Party. | ||
| That's super low. | ||
| Only 16% of Republicans, I think the number was, have an excellent rate. | ||
| Congress doing excellent. | ||
| It's a Republican Congress, only 16% excellent. | ||
| So again, like that's not great. | ||
| It's basically where, where we're at. | ||
| It's like status quo. | ||
| It's like, and the pendulum is just going to swing back and forth. | ||
| And that's kind of sad because right direction polling, as you know, was hitting records. | ||
| 55% thought Trump was going to be a golden age for America. | ||
| We thought we were going to get massive, massive dressing of the waste for unabuse in government. | ||
| And it's like, it's being squandered for regular D.C. garbage. | ||
| It hasn't changed at all. | ||
| And I, you know, you can't excoriate Mike Johnson for this. | ||
| He didn't write that 3,000 pages. | ||
| In fact, Arrington probably didn't write it. | ||
| Like who wrote the 3,000 pages? | ||
| Where'd they come from? | ||
| The lobbyists, man. | ||
| The lobbyists are in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, obviously. | |
| Right. | ||
| So people hate business as usual in Washington, D.C. That's like a plus 60 issue. | ||
| They want massive change. | ||
| They don't want business as usual. | ||
| That's kind of what we're seeing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's brutal out there. | |
| I, you know, I have a lot of hope that there's going to be some major economic turnarounds that the question, like that the administration, I know as a matter of fact, the administration has heard us technically and very fundamentally on the Epstein issue that they're doing a lot of work in order to shore up that ship. | ||
| And everybody's coming on this program saying that they're going to start prosecutions here of these deep state actors. | ||
| So hopefully that can hold the side up, Mark. | ||
| But thank you for coming on and sharing the data. | ||
| Everybody needs to follow Mark Mitchell of Rasmussen, who has just incredibly accurate data and who sometimes comes on here to do touchdown dances and sometimes comes on here to ring the warning bell and sound the fog horn. | ||
| And so, Mark, we appreciate your honesty and thank you very much for all of it. | ||
| Yeah, I'm not always like this. | ||
| The bell needs to be rung right now. | ||
| This is a warning bell. | ||
| All right. | ||
| The turning point. | ||
| You got to hear it. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Thank you, Mark. | ||
| Well, joining us right now in order to respond to all that is a member of Congress, Barry Loudermilk from Georgia. | ||
| He's on the Financial Services Committee. | ||
| Maybe he has something to say about how Congress is spending their time and money. | ||
| Please welcome Barry Loudermilk to the program. | ||
| Congressman, we had a technical difficulty with our last guest and that pushed him a couple minutes. | ||
| So we apologize for being late today. | ||
| We're sorry about that. | ||
| That's all right. | ||
| It's just a pleasure to be with you. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Well, I'm not sure if you heard our last guest, but he was talking about the approval ratings for the republicans in congress and how they haven't cut enough and haven't changed enough of washington business as usual uh i wanted to get you perhaps to respond to that what's your take congressman well i i agree with everything mark was saying in there is that there is the perception out there, and there's a reality that we haven't done as much that needs to be done. | ||
| Part of it is the culture that has to change in Washington, D.C. and also within Congress. | ||
| Another aspect of it is, look, the founders designed our legislative branch to be inefficient. | ||
| It is much harder to pass a piece of legislation than in a lot of other countries. | ||
| And that is by design. | ||
| But on the other hand, there was a lot of stuff that we do starts off with good intentions. | ||
| And even the big, beautiful bill, most of the really, as I would call it, good stuff, the things that I was really looking for was stripped out by the Senate parliamentarian. | ||
| And so you saw a much more watered down version. | ||
| Look, hey, the majority of it, if you can cut something, let's cut something. | ||
| There's a lot more that could have been done. | ||
| We do get another pass at reconciliation, possibly a couple more. | ||
| But we really have to stand up and we have to be bold. | ||
| And I'm one of those that, look, I've been very frustrated with how slow Congress has been going this year. | ||
| Trump came out of the gate very bold with executive orders. | ||
| And, you know, we've been slowed following up on those. | ||
| Hopefully, when things kick off again in September, you know, that we can start moving a really bold agenda, at least through the House. | ||
| You know, Senate's a little bit more of a challenge because they do have the cloture vote. | ||
| You have to get 60 of the folks over there. | ||
| And we only have a very small margin. | ||
| We don't have 60 Republican votes over there. | ||
| But that doesn't mean that we shouldn't be as bold as we can in the House, at least to set the stage. | ||
| And you do have some Democrats that have kind of caught on to the mandate from the last election. | ||
| And so they're a little more willing to play ball. | ||
| We've seen some of that in the House, but we've got to get over the forced errors that we have, especially in Congress, to move the ball forward as fast as the American people really expect it and need it to be moved. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So you were on the House Financial Services Committee, Committee on House Administration. | ||
| These are really powerful committees and obviously control a lot of the purse strings. | ||
| And so I got a question for you about this rescission package with the Doge cuts for PBS and NPR. | ||
| I think everybody, especially in this audience, cheered from the rafters over that. | ||
| It's something we've been promised for a long time. | ||
| And I want to give you and your colleagues credit for finally doing that and getting NPR and state government media defunded and for following up on that promise. | ||
| But what I think a lot of people are looking at when it comes to the actual numbers is going, well, $9 billion, while that is an insane amount of money in Washington, D.C. terms, it's just a crumb. | ||
| And so how do you cut more? | ||
| How do you get more Doge cuts actually enacted? | ||
| That was like exercising a demon, Congressman, getting just that cut alone, right? | ||
| I'm sure I've only seen the half of it, right? | ||
| Right. | ||
| Well, you know, I think when the people who are hesitant to this will see that the world didn't come to an end after we cut NPR and we cut some of these other things, USAID, and that there's more cuts to come. | ||
| I think they're going to see that, you know, it wasn't as bad, even in their own poll numbers, because look, for us to fund a hyper-partisan, and that's what NPR was. | ||
| I mean, it was not public radio. | ||
| It was an extension of the Democrat and the far left echelon of our country. | ||
| And so for my taxpayer dollars, your taxpayer dollars going to this type of nonsense, most Americans see that. | ||
| I think even Democrats would see that as if you had a public funded news outlet that was pushing the conservative right agenda at taxpayer dollars. | ||
| I think they would see that as well. | ||
| The fact is, you're still going to have Big Bird and Ernie. | ||
| They're not even part of NPR anymore. | ||
| You're still going to have PBS. | ||
| Hopefully this will bring them back into the middle and that they can do some real reporting and real content that isn't politically biased. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I think that ship's sailed. | ||
| Frankly, Congressman, having doing this all day, they've lost any capacity to even compete without federal dollars propping them up. | ||
| And it's such an insult to people like us and the hardworking Americans who work on this program. | ||
| They're young and they're scrappy and we build it all from scratch and we get destroyed in taxes and it's hard to make a profit in this industry. | ||
| And then we watch NPR get billions of dollars in order to effectively run communist propaganda, a bailout from the government. | ||
| It makes our blood boil. | ||
| So anyway, we're happy for that and we're thankful for that. | ||
| As you heard with Mark Mitchell, again, Ras Musen's a great pollster. | ||
| I'm sure you've seen their polls before. | ||
| He's really frustrated about accountability. | ||
| People thought that we'd have accountability for some of the deep state hoaxes that have been spawned on the American people. | ||
| I want to talk to you about one that you particularly have done an enormous amount of work on, and that's January 6th. | ||
| You wrote this January 6th report, and we're really thankful for it, and we've referenced it a ton on the program, and we're honored to have you on the show to talk about it. | ||
| What you've done with this January 6th report is really something, but it hasn't, like, with all due respect, like it hasn't led to really any major consequences from any of the major players. | ||
| You detail how the January 6th committee deleted all of their emails and deleted all their text messages. | ||
| Liz Cheney is kind of very publicly was witness tampering with Cassidy Hutchison. | ||
| The pipe bomber. | ||
| Who the hell is that? | ||
| What was that all about? | ||
| And so I want to just get your take here, sir, as the base screams out for something to happen other than strongly worded letters. | ||
| What happens next here? | ||
| Well, that's a good question. | ||
| And I'm more confident that something will happen. | ||
| As you know, the Congress, the legislative branch, we don't really have enforcement powers. | ||
| That's the executive branch. | ||
| And during the first two years of our investigation, 80% of my time was spent trying to find documents that were being hidden. | ||
| We had no cooperation really out of the administration, the Biden administration, until we forced it. | ||
| We had to force it with threats of subpoena. | ||
| And fortunately, there were several brave souls to step forward as whistleblowers that got us into the right direction. | ||
| And we surprised a lot of people with the documentation that we were able to uncover. | ||
| And based on that documentation, we were able to make a referral to the Department of Justice to look into some of the actions, especially with Liz Cheney, who admittedly that she was back channeling communication with Cassidy Hutchinson while Cassidy was already being represented by an attorney. | ||
| And Liz even acknowledges that in their communication that this is inappropriate, but she continued doing it. | ||
| And so with, and basically I only use Liz Cheney's own standard to make the referral to the Department of Justice. | ||
| When she was part of the select committee on January 6th, or as Trump likes to call it, the unselect committee, she made a criminal referral on Donald Trump because during their investigation, Trump attempted, according to them, attempted to call one of their witnesses. | ||
| He never even made contact with him. | ||
| It was just he attempted to contact someone who is testifying before the select committee. | ||
| So Liz Cheney proceeded to make a criminal referral for witness tampering. | ||
| We just use that same standard. | ||
| Not only did Liz Cheney attempt to contact Cassidy Hutchinson, she did contact Cassidy Hutchinson and continued to communicate with her, even though she acknowledged it was inappropriate. | ||
| And so we just use that same standard. | ||
| We turned that over to the Department of Justice. | ||
| Now it's in their hands. | ||
| And one of the things that was a discussion with the part with your last guest that I was able to hear that part of it is the FBI is very cooperative with us at this point. | ||
| We've got a friendly administration. | ||
| They're not hiding documents. | ||
| They're actually working with us to provide documents, but they are overwhelmed right now with things that they're investigating. | ||
| President Trump came out with an executive order. | ||
| I want you to look into these things, look into January 6th. | ||
| And this went across the board to all the departments, because when you look at January 6th, there wasn't much of the federal government that wasn't involved in some level that we found out during our investigation. | ||
| So from Department of Homeland Security, DEA, you got the FBI, DOJ, Department of Defense, all of them have been instructed to investigate their involvement in what happened on January 6th, as well as the COVID crisis, as well as the 2020 elections. | ||
| And so as they're digging into documents, we're communicating with the FBI. | ||
| We're in process of setting up the committee. | ||
| Unfortunately, it took seven months into this Congress to get it set up. | ||
| But we're already working hard. | ||
| And in September, I think you're going to start seeing a lot more production. | ||
| And as we work more with the administration, I hope that we do see people being held accountable. | ||
| But there's another aspect to this accountability. | ||
| There's a lot of people that are still, you know, we've always called it the deep state, that are well embedded. | ||
| And I think the departments are doing a pretty good job of getting rid of those that they can determine are part of the weaponization of government that's been across the federal government. | ||
| But part of our investigation, I believe, is going to uncover even more participants in that. | ||
| And so I think that's not having this investigation going for seven months. | ||
| I mean, we basically came to a dead stop in December, and it's taken until now for Congress to set this back up again. | ||
| Yeah, we lost a lot of time. | ||
| We could have been a lot further down the road. | ||
| But again, with a friendly administration, I think we're going to be able to hit the ground running. | ||
| Well, great. | ||
| Again, thank you for reinforcing sort of what Mark was saying is that people just want this to happen and happen fast. | ||
| And they want people to get up off their asses and get to work. | ||
| And we feel like the country is slipping through our fingers. | ||
| And we saw innocent grandmothers who just simply looked at the Capitol building that day, given 22 months prison sentences for a seditious conspiracy. | ||
| And we said, what the hell is going on here? | ||
| I think I, you know, I'm an optimistic person at heart, Congressman. | ||
| So I have high hopes. | ||
| There is one thing that just in conclusion here, I got to ask you about because we've spent hours on the show talking about it with the people who are in charge of the FBI. | ||
| And so it's not like they don't know that this is a real problem. | ||
| We even had FBI agents on Congressman talking to us about the J6 pipe bomber and a specific FBI agent that was on the program saying that they knew who it was and then they were told, shut it down. | ||
| You're not allowed to investigate any further. | ||
| What the hell is going on with that? | ||
| Some of the smartest minds have told us that that is the key to everything, finding the identity of the pipe bomber. | ||
| Do you have any information on the pipe bomber and what that op was? | ||
| We don't have any new revelations right now other than, but because I've been out of the loop legally, I have not been able to engage directly with the FBI, even though Dan Bogino and I are longtime friends. | ||
| We are communicating and I am being told they have some more information to hand over to me as soon as this committee is stood up. | ||
| But I agree with you. | ||
| The pipe bomb is a key to a lot of other things involved. | ||
| There's several questions that we're still investigating, like the gallows. | ||
| What in the world was gallows? | ||
| Who put up the gallows? | ||
| All of our evidence shows that it wasn't the MAGA folks that put it up, but who was it? | ||
| But the pipe bomb, there's just so many elements of that that is very interesting to say the least. | ||
| I mean, you have supposedly what people believed at the time was a live explosive device, but yet the police are letting people walk by it, right? | ||
| There's no one in control. | ||
| You have Secret Service agents, and I brought this up around last year after Trump's attempted assassination in Pennsylvania. | ||
| There was a significant problem with The Secret Service at the time, because you did have Kamala Harris, who was a vice president-elect, who had secret service protection, was at the Democrat Committee headquarters where one of the pipe bombs was placed. | ||
| That was placed the night before. | ||
| So, an advanced team of the Secret Service comes to do an advanced sweep of the Driple C, which the pipe bomb was actually left in an area to be found, right? | ||
| It's just under a park bench. | ||
| The agent walks by it with a K9 twice, never sees it, never hits on it. | ||
| So, how effective is your advanced teams when you can't even pick up a pipe bomb that was left in an area to be found? | ||
| And then there was just so much incompetence, as best I can explain, even the handling going forward. | ||
| The investigation part of FBI was basically non-existent from what we can see. | ||
| We are investigating some supposedly corrupt data that the FBI kept saying, yeah, the identity of the pipe bomber was from this data. | ||
| We were getting his cell phone data from one of the major carriers, but it was corrupted when we got it. | ||
| Well, it only took a month to figure out it was corrupted, right? | ||
| So there's some questions regarding that that I hope that we're going to get some answers to very early on. | ||
| But the big difference now than the previous two years of my investigation is we now have a cooperative administration who is not going to try to cover up evidence and hide evidence as the previous administration did, but they're going to assist us in uncovering this because we have got to find who the culprits are. | ||
| If you're going to clean up the government, you've got to know who they are. | ||
| And look, you're already seeing Tulsi Gabbard's doing some incredible work. | ||
| We've been working closely with them. | ||
| You've got the FBI that's doing a lot of work. | ||
| And then John Ratcliffe at the CIA recently is coming out with information. | ||
| And John is another close friend. | ||
| And all of them have committed to working very closely with us. | ||
| But when you look at the weaponization, when you look at the steel dossier and all of the Russia hoax, there is a real parallel in the way they operated and the way that Pelosi's select committee operated because they had a narrative that Trump was going to be behind all this, and they just manipulated their evidence to meet that narrative. | ||
| That's why we had such a hard time finding data because any information that didn't support that final outcome was suppressed. | ||
| And there was so much more information that they suppressed that did not support their narrative than what they did report. | ||
| Well, we say Godspeed to you. | ||
| You've done good work on January 6th. | ||
| You're the only person that's really like tried to rip the bark off of what happened. | ||
| And we say to you, Congressman, you'll always have a spot on this, a booking, an open booking on this show to come on and explain your findings. | ||
| We want to get to the bottom of this. | ||
| We believe that it is as critical as any of the scandals that are going on and perhaps the most critical because it directly led to the destruction of so many innocent Americans and so many patriots who were peacefully protesting that day. | ||
| We won't forget them. | ||
| So thank you, Congressman. | ||
| Thank you, Congressman. | ||
| Please follow Congressman Barry Lautermelk from the great state of Georgia, who's going to find the truth about January 6th once and for all with the assistance of the FBI and the Trump administration. | ||
| Godspeed, Congressman. | ||
| Thank you, Manny. | ||
|

|
Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| you you Well, ladies and gentlemen, interesting bookings back to back. | ||
| We get the congressman to respond. | ||
| We get a lot of criticism about Congress and we get the congressman to respond. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Well, at least we're having an open discussion. | ||
| Having open conversation is something that we do often on our Patriot mobile devices that we carry with us throughout the land. | ||
| This is a way that we stay connected to our home here in Florida, to my family, but also as we crisscross the nation. | ||
| We got some a very exciting week of travel planned next week. | ||
| It's going to be wild. | ||
| We've got some fun things to expose. | ||
| We'll also be in Orlando this weekend doing a live event with Byron Donalds, who I believe is going to be our next governor here in the great state of Florida. | ||
| Anyway, the point is, is that we take Patriot Mobile with us everywhere. | ||
| We wouldn't choose this. | ||
| It's the backbone of our company if they were not rock solid. | ||

| Ladies and gentlemen, we got some rock and rolling financial news. | ||
| You know, it seems like there's, you know, Mark Mitchell was on like, like with the warning bells. | ||
| And I was like, whoa, man, Mark, this is dark, dude. | ||
| I'm glad that we have our next guest booked. | ||
| The only way to really pull yourself out of a cycle like this. | ||
| If you agree that it is a bad cycle, I don't particularly agree. | ||
| I think there's like ups and downs. | ||
| There's sort of like a summer lull. | ||
| I think everything's going to be fine. | ||
| Mark was a bit of a doomer, but whatever. | ||
| It's going to be good economic news. | ||
| That's how you pull yourself up from your bootstraps and nobody cares. | ||
| If the economy is doing great, then like nobody cares. | ||
| And, you know, and the wheels keep moving, right? | ||
| And if that's what can happen, well, then I think we'll be fine, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Joining us right now to talk about it is a financial markets expert. | ||
| He's the CEO of Alio Capital. | ||
| His name is Joseph Gradante, and he joins us live now. | ||
| you you you Oh, do we have breaking news? | ||
| All right. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Maybe we'll talk some breaking news as well. | ||
| Breaking news on the economy. | ||
| Welcome to the show, Joseph. | ||
| Have rock and rolling economic numbers this morning. | ||
| U.S. GDP at 3% growth for Q2. | ||
| That's a major positive sign, yes? | ||
| Well, you know, I like what Tucker said at Turning Point. | ||
| You know, how much Can we really extrapolate from GDP? | ||
| I think great change brings great opportunity. | ||
| I think that's the key. | ||
| That's my key takeaway, right? | ||
| Because at Alio, we're focused on macro investing. | ||
| So, yeah, I think overall, that's pretty positive. | ||
| I think the Fed did the right thing by not cutting rates yet, but I do think we will see a rate cut later on in the year. | ||
| That was a very interesting back and forth with President Trump and Jerome Powell. | ||
| I don't pretend to be any type of financial expert or whiz, but it was like a scene from the office when Donald Trump and Jerome Powell were rolling through the Fed earlier this week. | ||
| What do you think the takeaway was from that? | ||
| Do you think Jerome's going to cut rates? | ||
| I do. | ||
| I do think we will see a rate cut this year. | ||
| I don't think we'll get two. | ||
| I think we'll get one either in September or December. | ||
| And, you know, but I think, you know, he's got to be careful because we don't know what kind of inflation we're going to see from the tariffs. | ||
| And I think, you know, the Fed's, it's doing its job, right? | ||
| And presidents always don't always like when the Fed does its job. | ||
| But I do think we will see a rate cut this year, but I think Powell has to hold back a little bit and be independent. | ||
| That is the role of the Fed. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So something that is quite interesting to me is the sort of striking balance of obviously the economic numbers, but also what happened with the tariffs. | ||
| And that seems to be the single most critical element to President Trump's economic policy. | ||
| And he's been using it as a weapon and it's been working. | ||
| He just signed that EU deal that was a bombshell deal. | ||
| And it's been, so far, zero inflation given the tariffs. | ||
| Do you see the same thing? | ||
| Do you see the same thing in the markets? | ||
| It seems like Trump has won on the tariff war. | ||
| Well, I think, you know, it's easy, the optics so far, right? | ||
| It's easy for it to appear that way, but we have to see what happens with China. | ||
| That's the elephant in the room. | ||
| And I think, you know, this 90-day pause, we don't know what's going to come out of that. | ||
| And until we have guidance on, you know, how things are going to land with China, it would be premature to do anything with rates. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| How do you think that is going to shake out? | ||
| We had a China expert on yesterday, Kyle Bass, who was explaining that they are in a very bad situation. | ||
| And it seems like Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett is looking to extort that situation. | ||
| How do you think it's going to play? | ||
| Yeah, you know, I don't know if it's a good idea to back China into a corner, right? | ||
| But like our job at LEO is to help people prepare for no matter how it goes. | ||
| So it would really be, I think, premature for me to say how that's going to go because nobody knows when it comes to China. | ||
| So here's the headline. | ||
| That is my favorite headline of the week is from Axios. | ||
| The Trump dominated global economy. | ||
| The U.S. gets plenty, but gives nothing in return. | ||
| Like, well, that's that, like, I don't know if they meant that as an own, but that is a damn good headline, especially if you're America first. | ||
| Do you predict that that's going to continue? | ||
| Do you predict like that we're going to see a bit of a rocket ship in the economy over the next couple of years? | ||
| So I am extremely bullish, right? | ||
| And in general, I'm not a fan of predicted markets. | ||
| I think it's time in the markets, not time in the markets. | ||
| But I am extremely bullish going forward, just because I think we have a once-in-a-lifetime president. | ||
| I mean, you just got guidance on fiscal policy with the big, beautiful bill and following that up with guidance on monetary policy. | ||
| He will get his guy eventually. | ||
| We know that in the next 11 months, right? | ||
| And when that happens, we will get, even if we don't get them in Q4, which I think we will, I do think we will have a great Q4 because I think we'll get rate cuts in September or December. | ||
| But even if that didn't happen, we will definitely get them when the next Fed chairman comes in. | ||
| And it's very rare that you get both of those things aligned in fiscal policy and monetary policy back to back. | ||
| So when that happens, I think it's going to be extremely bullish for markets. | ||
| And it's going to be in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have a portfolio of really, you know, traditionally risk-off and risk-on assets that, you know, that you wouldn't have wanted to have in any other period in history. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, that is why we partner with Alio Capital. | ||
| I've personally invested with them and used the app. | ||
| It's fantastic. | ||
| Here's a website right here. | ||
| And Joseph, we appreciate this product because it does help in some of the macro and micro senses, make sure that your portfolio is properly suited for the time and place when these major earth shattering events, which happen seemingly on a daily basis, it's almost exhausting. | ||
| It's great for business, Joseph. | ||
| But it's exhausting sometimes to cover it. | ||
| There's a new bombshell every single week. | ||
| No, that's exactly right. | ||
| I mean, you know, investing off of geopolitics, that is macro investing. | ||
| And so, you know, following these moves weekly, daily, monthly, you know, it's tiresome, you know, on the investor. | ||
| And so, you know, we'll do it for you and we're happy to take your money. | ||
| But if you want to learn and do it yourself, you know, that's what that's what our product allows you to do. | ||
| And, you know, we're really, you know, we believe economic freedom is a prerequisite to political freedom. | ||
| And, you know, and so it's really incumbent, I think, upon, you know, the younger people to start really taking control of their futures. | ||
| And I think you have a once in a lifetime opportunity with President Trump in office to do that. | ||
| But it's up to you to stay diligent and follow what's going on in markets on a daily basis. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So it's up to the individual how far they want to take it. | ||
| And, you know, that's what the product, it's really whether you're hands off or you want to do it yourself will help you either way. | ||
| But yeah, most people don't want to read a 600-page book on macro investing. | ||
| So we've pioneered this behavior-led UX that's not gamified. | ||
| And, you know, and through that and through what you have right there, that is the macro dashboard. | ||
| And if you notice, it says on the screen there, you know, deflation plus growth, inflation plus growth, inflation. | ||
| I can't see what you have there. | ||
| But yeah, those are the four different regime types. | ||
| And based on the regime type that you're in, You can look down and see which, you know, which sectors and which asset classes and which industries traditionally, historically, do well. | ||
| I mean, the whole reason why we study history in school is because history repeats itself. | ||
| And so, you know, what better place is there to be a student of history than in capital markets, right? | ||
| And to look at fiscal and monetary policy and traditionally how they've affected different asset classes and sectors and industries and position yourself to profit from that. | ||
| That is the idea of value of capital. | ||
| Well, I got to tell you, as long as you're able to lock in and as long as you're able to be wise with the capital that you've been given and also get those rates lowered, which is very important for young people to get started, buy homes, get their hands on the American dream, start families. | ||
| You can't start a family in a one-room apartment or it's a lot tougher. | ||
| Yeah, I think that will be rip roaring. | ||
| Thank you for your thank you for your sunny outlook here. | ||
| We've had an interesting show. | ||
| Joseph, you're welcome back. | ||
| Anytime. | ||
| And yeah, rocking and rolling in the golden age. | ||
| Be greedy when others are fearful, right? | ||
| That's exactly right. | ||
| That's the American way. | ||
| That's your right. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Well, thank you, Joseph. | ||
| Godspeed, man. | ||
| Thanks for having me. | ||

Thanks for having me. | |
| Breaking news here. | ||
| I didn't think it was appropriate to talk about with our last guest, given the fact that he was on to talk about finances and the economic numbers. | ||
| But here is the breaking news that, oh, well, I'm not going to miss a chance to do a cool breaking news stinger. | ||
| Here we go. | ||

| We've been using that one for years. | ||
| We got to get a new one. | ||
| Cash Patel found thousands of sensitive documents related to the origins of the Trump Russia probe buried in burn bags in a secret room inside of the Bureau. | ||
| Sources Familiar told me. | ||
| Patel found thousands of these sensitive Trump Russia probe docs inside of a burn bag. | ||
| They're trying to destroy this evidence. | ||
| Cash Patel has turned all of the documents over to the Senate Judiciary Chairman, Chuck Grassley. | ||
| Goodness. | ||
| Well, Cash has certainly spoken about this. | ||
| He talked about this on the Joe Rogan podcast, that they found things like hold away inside of secret rooms in the FBI. | ||
| So we're going to investigate this. | ||
| This is breaking right now, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Hopefully we can talk with Tulsi Gabbard about it. | ||
| She'll be on our show. | ||
| Live tomorrow. | ||
| We're going to have Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. | ||
| It couldn't be a more perfect booking because there's going to be news today. | ||
| We hear that from many sources. | ||
| Maybe this is just the start, but there's going to be some major news today. | ||
| It's going to be very, very interesting. | ||
| Hopefully, Tulsi Gabbard will be bringing the flamethrower and the heat and melt our faces off. | ||
| Something that doesn't melt my face off every single night when I'm using it, including last night after going on a bit of a tear myself on Chris Cuomo's show, is the Bon Charge Red Light Mask. | ||

Okay. | |
| I think we have one, I think we have like one clip from the Chris Cuomo. | ||
| Speaking of face melters, from Chris Cuomo last night, it's my favorite. | ||
| There's this douche. | ||
| His name is Brian Tyler Cohen. | ||
| Again, he's Timu Benny Johnson. | ||
| He dresses like me. | ||
| He's totally astroturfed. | ||
| The left takes, took all their USAID money, whatever they had left. | ||
| They took it from MSNBC. | ||
| That no longer is a useful propaganda tool. | ||
| CNN has no longer a useful propaganda tool. | ||
| And they pump it into these other lesser creators to try and AstroTurf their next Joe Rogan or whatever. | ||
| And so this guy was really fun to just go into battle. | ||
| There's a debate show. | ||
| And it's like 20 against one because it's Chris Cuomo plus all of his producers in his ear plus this guy. | ||
| But ladies and gentlemen, this is called In the Arena. | ||
| We humiliated him by forcing him to eat his words and eat the policies of the Democrat Party, which of course are racist against white people, endemically so. | ||
| And so this was the post yesterday that went pretty viral. | ||
| And this is the clip. | ||
| What I forced him to do is since Chris Cuomo is out of New York City and Zorhan Mandami is a very big name in the Democrat Party right now, you know, I forced Brian Tyler Cohen to acknowledge that he's okay with taxing white people more because of their skin color. | ||
| And we were actually able to get him to agree to this, which is great. | ||
| I mean, listen, tell us who you are. | ||
| The DOJ says that's criminal and racist, but I'm glad that you agree with it. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Let me ask you a quick question. | ||
| You're saying that I want to stoke a race war. | ||
| Well, Zorhan Mandami, who wants to be the mayor of New York City and is the odds on favorite, mayor of New York City, Democrat candidate for mayor, says that he wants to tax white people more. | ||
| Are you in favor of that, Brian? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't even know what you're talking about. | |
| It sounds real. | ||
| This is wild. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's a campaign platform to tax white people more than non-white people. | |
| No, in the awkward position of defending Zoran Mondami, I'm going to go to break, but he didn't say tax white people more. | ||
| He said we have to look to shift the tax burden to whiter neighborhoods that are more affluent and shift the burden from lower income benefits. | ||
| Look, it didn't play well. | ||
| Benny's right to jump on it, but I got to correct the record, even though I don't cover the race because my brother's in it. | ||
| This was so much fun to ask Brian about Zorhan Mandami wanting to tax whiter people in white neighborhoods more. | ||
| I clarified it. | ||
| Do you agree with that, Brian? | ||
| I clarified it on his campaign website, and he doubled down on it on MSNBC. | ||
| And I'm shocked that you don't know that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I thought you were somebody who really asked me if I'm in favor of taxing more affluent communities at a higher rate? | |
| Yes. | ||
| I'm of course in favor of taxing wealthier people at a higher rate. | ||
| Do you guys both agree? | ||
| Very quickly here, very quickly, I'm glad that we got that. | ||
| Fine. | ||
| You're entitled to your opinion. | ||
| I think that it's wrong. | ||
| And the DOJ, Harme Dillon, who's in charge of the Civil Rights Division, has publicly said that that may be racist and may be criminal, but that's okay to admit that, Brian. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, then let me ask you about this. | |
| Given the last, just really fast, given since we're on Zorhamandami and Chris were asked the question. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I never even talk about him because my brother's running against him, man. | |
| That the police should be defunded because he believes that they're not queer enough. | ||
| Those are his exact words. | ||
| And he mocked NYPD officers crying in their cop cars. | ||
| Do you agree with that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do I agree that we should defund the police? | |
| No. | ||
| Let me ask you a question. | ||
| No, wait, hold on a second. | ||
| I don't want to hear any more of your questions. | ||
| No more questions. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I wish we'd gotten to this earlier in the show. | ||
| Whatever. | ||
| Here it is from the website. | ||
| I should have printed this out. | ||
| Klein, why didn't I have this printed out? | ||
| I could have like held it up. | ||
| That was stupid. | ||
| I should have had it printed out. | ||
| We'll work on it. | ||
| Like bringing props, like bringing, you know, definitely bringing the gun to the knife fight, right? | ||
| Shift the tax burden. | ||
| This is straight from the dude's website. | ||
| He's a dirty Marxist. | ||
| It's shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to the more expensive homes in whiter neighborhoods. | ||
| There it is, dumbass. | ||
| That's what you just endorsed. | ||
| It's illegal, of course. | ||
| It's racist. | ||
| And it's morally wrong. | ||
| And it's morally unjustifiable. | ||
| You, of course, you couldn't swap out any other race or white there without getting completely canceled and probably being sued. | ||
| And so we're going to do our part to hold it down and to hold these people and humiliate them on live TV, which we were proud to do. | ||
| I also had an opportunity to explain to Chris Cuomo that it's bad for CNN to call a black terrorist a white guy. | ||
| And I don't know why this is even remotely controversial, but since Chris Cuomo was a CNN anchor and CNN was doing this, I was really excited for the opportunity to explain to Chris that what you're going to do is get white people killed. | ||
| So if you tell a building that's getting shot up, that it's a white guy shooting the building when it's a black guy doing it, well, you're going to get white people killed. | ||
| You're going to get more people killed no matter what the color of their skin is. | ||
| But then you're going to put a mark on every white guy working in that building. | ||
| That's, of course, unjustifiable. | ||
| It is completely evil. | ||
| And CNN knew precisely what they were doing right here. | ||
| You guys both know me. | ||
| You know my background. | ||
| What happened on CNN with the description of the perp was a mistake, okay? | ||
| John Miller, who is one of the best reporters I've ever been around in my life, especially when it comes to the cops, the guy ran NYPD public affairs. | ||
| You know, he ran FBI communications, LAPD communications. | ||
| This guy is wired with the cops that you'll get. | ||
| They were wrong. | ||
| Picture came out. | ||
| They corrected the description. | ||
| You say it's a race war, Benny. | ||
| That bothers me. | ||
| Why shouldn't it? | ||
| Well, because this is the photograph. | ||
| The police scanner in New York, according to eyewitnesses, said that he was either a Middle Eastern or Indian man. | ||
| And because when you give incorrect descriptions of suspects who are committing mass murder, you may well cause more murders, right, Chris? | ||
| If the cops or people see a white man and think that he's the murderer, well, this is incorrect and you could lead to real tragedy by doing this. | ||
| Now, everyone saw this photo. | ||
| This was a photo that was up nigh on five minutes after the shooting started. | ||
| And so this was widely circulated on social media. | ||
| And on CNN's own airwaves, I'm so glad that we're talking about this, Chris. | ||
| I was wanting to ask you about this. | ||
| On CNN's own airwaves, there's a responsibility to ensure that the public is informed. | ||
| Now, does this look like a white man? | ||
| To me, no. | ||
| But I don't think John Miller had said, in fact, I don't think. | ||
| I know. | ||
| They hadn't seen the photo. | ||
| That's why I didn't understand it. | ||
| And then they corrected this photo, Chris. | ||
| But then they corrected the reference description. | ||
| He says this photo has gone out to, if you watch the clip, and I have, you'll see that he referenced, he tells Aaron Burnett that this photo, this photo, has gone out to all the police officers, and he's describing who this individual is. | ||
| This was widely circulated on social media. | ||
| But Benny, you said that. | ||
| So if he's describing this photo, you're assuming he's talking about this photo. | ||
| Benny, you said they wanted to. | ||
| No, I'm saying, no, no, no, no, no, no. | ||
| I didn't say that. | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| I said that when you're doing something like describing an individual who's perpetrating a mass shooting, you should get the description correct because it could save lives. | ||
| And I think that CNN has a responsibility for that. | ||
| But of course, the guy was, you know, the guy didn't hurt anybody else. | ||
| He was already dead. | ||
| But CNN wants a race war and they're begging to get it. | ||
| He did kill five people. | ||
| He killed five people, right? | ||
| So I understand that he did it, but I'm saying that that's not what it was about. | ||
| I just feel like this is part of what I'm talking about, Brian. | ||
| And we've talked about this before. | ||
| Did we beat Chris Cuomo and Brian Tyler Cohen and all the producers at News Nation all in one spell swoop? | ||
| We're actually thankful that Chris had us on his show and we're proud to do it anytime. | ||
| And I did run home and put my kids to bed. | ||
| And like literally minutes before I was there, minutes before they hit, I was reading Dr. Seuss books to my kids, you know, before bedtime. | ||
| And, well, you got to wear the hats, right? | ||
| And so that was fun. | ||
| And we look forward to doing it more. | ||
| I think we're going to be doing it quite a bit more. | ||
| Iron sharpens iron. | ||
| Got to do more debates. | ||
| Got to get out. | ||
| And yeah, break some things. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we're thankful for the power to do that. | ||
| You give us that power. | ||
| And we are just never going to take the foot off the gas around here. | ||
| We're going to keep going. | ||
| All gas, no breaks. | ||
| Our verse of the day, Psalms 27. | ||
| Before we dive into more of this news, this cash patel thing is really big. | ||
| In fact, Erica Knight, we were just talking about her. | ||
| You just texted me. | ||
| We've got a lot of stuff to jump into. | ||
| Just in time for Tulsi. | ||
| It's perfect, okay? | ||
| It's perfect. | ||
| Remember, Tulsi Gabbard on the show. | ||
| Tomorrow, let's lock in with our verse of the day today. | ||
| The Lord is my light and my salvation. | ||
| Whom shall I fear? | ||
| The Lord is my strength of my life. | ||
| Of whom shall I be afraid? | ||
| Psalms 27. | ||
| Make sure that you're reading the New Testament, and then make sure that you read Psalms. | ||
| I'm no biblical scholar. | ||
| I go to a very simple Bible-believing church. | ||
| And I got to tell you, man, just like read them in tandem, and you can see just the perfection of scripture. | ||
| And the Psalms are very comforting, and they're a guidance, and they're all pointing to the promises of the New Testament. | ||
| And it's verses like this that sort of get you through tough times and get you through what the world's going to throw at you, because we live in a sunken world. | ||
| It's an imperfect place. | ||
| There are evil people out there. | ||
| You got to meet evil with force, with equal and greater force. | ||
| And that evil and greater force for us is always going to come from the salt and light of the scriptures and from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, it's an honor to fight with you. | ||
| It's hump day. | ||
| We're going to get through it. | ||
| Here's our official promo here for Tulsi Gabbard. | ||
| Rocking and rolling. | ||
