In this episode I address the economic development that has the Democrats terrified about the 2020 election. I also address that infamous Russia “hack.” Did it really happen? I discuss the tech tyrants new moves to silence us. Finally, I address more explosive evidence indicating Obama knew about the Spygate scandal.
News Picks:
Obama knew! He was the ringleader.
The Facebook tech tyrants are at it again.
The twitter tech tyrants strike again too!
Sorry media hacks, but you’re not “victims.”
Are we headed for an incredible economic rebound?
Who is really politicizing the Mike Flynn case?

history, and I encourage you...

You'll see me doing that.
The Twitter tech tyrants are back at it again, along with Facebook.
Got something on that.
And, and one of my favorite stories of the day, some good news about the economy and why the Democrats are panicking.
And one more final tease, because I'm going to get to all this today.
The Russia hack.
Remember the hack?
Air Quotac?
I got more on that from our good friend Steven McIntyre on Twitter.
We sure that was a Russia hack.
Lot going on today.
By the way, animals are lining up two by two down here in Florida.
It rained like 75 inches.
I have a pond.
You should put that picture up, Paula, sometime.
I have a pond next door to my house, about four feet deep.
I've never seen this much rain in my life.
I'm waiting for the arc to come rolling down the street.
Welcome to the Dan Bongino Show.
Producer Joe, how are you today?
Fine, sir.
Hey, man.
What do you know?
I'm doing good.
I may meet him.
I mean, it's really that bad.
It is rain for, I mean, it was so bad yesterday.

Check it out today.
All right, Joe, let's go.
All right, so jumping right into this as we're all drying out down here in South Florida from this.
I want to start with some good news today.
Today is going to be one of the more loaded shows we've done in a long time because there's just so much going on.
It's like drinking from a fire hose.
Which I did yesterday if you walked outside.
But there is some good news going on with the economy, finally.
And listen, I say that, let me give you the bad news first.
We get a lot of emails into the show and we appreciate them.
And Paula was deeply touched this morning by an email we got from her.
It was a female emailer, correct?
About her story, about a daycare center and going under.
And it's really devastating.
We read them.
We appreciate them.
We appreciate them because we never want to be those out of touch elitist Amtrak core to media bubble types.
Joe, me and Paula have all worked for a living our whole lives.
I was a cop and an agent.
Joe's been an audio producer, radio.
He's been a musician like real jobs.
Normal people do.
And you know, Paula was a web designer.
We'd like to hear your stories because we'd like to know what's going on in the real world.
And the stories we're getting on email about businesses being destroyed, I'm not kidding, are devastating.
Paula, for like 20 minutes this morning, was talking to me about this email from this woman and how she's like, what can we do?
What can we do?
We're trying.
We're trying our best to help as many people as possible.
We're just limited in our, it's only two of us, me and Paula.
Having said that, though, there is some good news.
Potentially some very good news.
If you can hang in there.
And I know that's asking a lot.
Let me go right away to this Wall Street Journal article I read this morning.
I was like, gosh, thank God.
And I'm not using the Lord's name in vain.
I need that.
Big G, God.
Thank you, Lord.
Finally, Wall Street Journal.
Harry Ettore, Josh Mischel.
For economy, worst of the coronavirus shutdowns may be over.
Recovering air travel, hotel bookings, and mortgage applications are among the early signs the U.S.
economy is slowly creeping back to life.
Now, I'm going to put up a few screenshots from this piece.
It's really good.
It's a little mechanical, but it's good.
And then I'm going to get to why the Democrats are freaking out over this in a political piece.
I'm not messing with you.
What are they freaking out about?
The economy's coming back.
Hold tight on that.
Stand easy as they used to stay on the muster deck in a police car.
Stand easy!
First screenshot from the Wall Street Journal piece.
Good news.
This is good news.
Spending on hotels, restaurants, airlines, other industries hurt by social distancing remains low, but appears to be picking up.
The number of travelers passing through TSA security screenings fell to 87,000 on April 14th.
This is astonishing.
96% below the same day a year earlier.
I mean, you want to talk about a drop-off.
That's from here to like zero.
But by May 24th, just a month later, just a few days ago, the figure had more than tripled to 267,000, although that is still down 87% from the same day a year earlier.
Meanwhile, data from online restaurant booking company Open Table shows diners are beginning to return in several states.
This is great news.
I don't expect it to be a Band-Aid on an open gushing wound right now, and I don't want anyone who's suffering to think I'm in any way downplaying the horror you're going through right now.
I am not.
We read your emails.
They are devastating.
I'm telling you, Paula couldn't even focus on the show after reading that email this morning.
Not a joke.
But exposing you every day to a constant litany of bad information when there are some green shoots out there is doing nothing for anyone's psychological health.
I'm simply telling you, if we can hang in there, that in a couple of months we may be on the other side of this.
Please.
Whatever you can do.
This poor woman this morning, we read the email, had to sell off her daughter's college fund.
This is awful.
But there may be some green shoots around the corner.
Again, still being down 87% last year.
Air travel's not a great thing, but it was down 96% just a few weeks ago.
I was out this weekend.
I went out to another place.
I went to two places.
I went to Kyle G's over on Hutchinson Island.
I went to Anthony's Coal Fire Pizza here in Stewart, too.
Both were relatively, given the circumstances, doing well.
Crowded.
Not saying they're making money, but at least they're staying afloat.
Good job.
Second piece of good news, and then we'll get to the political article, which has the Democrats running for the hills right now.
The shipping industry illustrates the trend.
Listen, if you're not shipping anything, there's no economy.
Nothing's moving.
The numbers remain low by historical standards, but suggest the carriers have turned a corner.
Good.
Truckstop.com, which measures demand in trucking, says its weekly index has improved for four straight weeks, that the available loads are up 27% in the week ending May 18th.
DatSolutions LLC, which matches freight to available trucks, says its index for available loads rose 22% the week ending May 10th.
Old Dominion Freight.
Most of you know that company.
One of the largest truckers in the U.S.
said its volumes fell sharply at the start of April, but their CEO said in an earnings call that demand has remained fairly steady since then.
Good.
Finally, common sense is taking over.
This is a deadly virus.
It is very deadly for people in a certain age group, people with comorbidities.
For people below that, the statistics speak for themselves.
It is not a very deadly disease.
It is a dangerous disease.
Now we are starting to risk calculate and say impoverishing people and bankrupting hospitals and starving them to death and potentially killing some people, suicide call hotlines are through the roof, is probably not the solution to a virus that is deadly for a limited subset of our population which we can take care of.
Now you would think after hearing that, gosh this is good to hear.
I don't know about you, but I read this first thing in the morning.
I get up in the morning.
You can usually see by the time I send that Obama tweet in the morning, around what time I get up.
Depends on how late the night before we're working.
But I read this and I smiled a little bit, thinking we could finally be turned a corner on this.
So why would the Democrats be panicking?
Well, the Democrats would be panicking because some, not all, I'm not stigmatizing or stereotyping an entire group of people like they do to us, but some of the Democrats, a limited subset of liberal lunatics who don't care about this country at all.
Every side America's on, they're on the other side of that.
If there's a right side, they're on the wrong side of it.
They're on the wrong side of right every single time, this group of Democrats.
Maybe 20, 30, 40% of them total lunatics.
They hate this data.
Now why would they hate the economy growing again, albeit slowly, but recovering and turning?
Why would they hate that?
That seems to be universally good news.
Because it's universally good news that affects us, but may also, as a positive externality, may also reflect well politically on President Trump.
We can't have that!
We can't have that, folks!
That's a big no-no!
A positive political development potentially for President Trump, even if it means saving people's businesses?
We gotta bankrupt their asses, that's the end of that.
If it's gonna result in anything positive for President Trump, no dice!
These are sick, disturbed people.
Again, I'm not talking about all of them, but you know the ones I am talking about.
They were loving every minute of this shutdown.
Blaming it on President Trump, as if he created this virus in the Wuhan lab.
You don't believe me?
Dan, come on.
That's a bridge too far, buddy.
The Democrats, some of them, are on the other side of an economic recovery saying, that's no good, we don't want that.
Just check out the people at Politico, otherwise known as Politico.
If I'm putting up a Politico link, it's in the show notes today too.
Read it.
You know it's... If even the Democrats and their media cronies in Politico, a far-left rag, are now acknowledging the Democrats are freaking out, you know the story is in fact true.
Politico.
The general election scenario the Democrats are dreading.
We're about to see the best economic data we've seen in the history of this country, says a top former economic advisor to... Obama!
Jason Furman, who writes op-eds in the Wall Street Journal sometimes.
Go read this piece.
I don't give politico clicks, but this is worth your time.
Go to Bongino.com slash newsletter.
The newsletter are the show notes.
Click on this piece.
We'll email them to you every day and read it.
The Democrats are panicking.
I've got a few gems from this one.
You would think this would be universally positive, good news.
Yeah.
Great.
The economy's recovering.
Run on your own thing.
I mean, if I were a Democrat, I'm not giving you advice or anything.
I'm just run on the, the economy's recovering.
This is great.
We have a plan.
We think we can massage that recovery, make it bigger and better.
Your message is what?
The economy's recovering and that really sucks?
Screw you.
I don't know.
Joe, that's some campaign slogan.
Biden, the economy sucks.
Screw you.
Screw your business.
No, no, no.
Not a good campaign slogan.
I used to drive out on 50 onto the Eastern Shore when I was running for Senate.
A lot of campaign signs out there.
There's people pecking.
Can you imagine?
Biden says, screw you.
Economy, no good for 2020.
Not sure you're going to get a lot of votes on that one.
Yeah, no, I'm not kidding.
Now, let's go to the political piece in case you think I'm messing with that.
The Democrats are panicked about this.
Jason Furman's case.
Remember, Furman was an Obama economic advisor.
His case that the economy is poised to explode, folks, in a good way, not a bad way, begins with the premise that the 2020 pandemic triggered an economic collapse which is different than the Great Depression or the Great Recession, which both had very slow, grinding recoveries.
Instead, Furman, again an Obama economic advisor, this is important, Furman believes the way to think about the current economic drop-off, at least in its first two phases, is more like what happens to a thriving economy during and after a natural disaster.
Interesting take here.
A quick and steep decline in economic activity followed by a quick and steep rebound.
Folks, I don't Even though this is Obama's guy, I'm not sure it's going to be a V. I'm very, very sure there's going to be a dramatic rebound.
If it's going to be a V, it may be more like a reverse checkmark.
And then we grind a little bit before we get back.
Do you get what I'm saying?
Furman's Obama's economic, he thinks it's going to be potentially a V. Down, right back up again eventually.
I hope he's right.
I hope he's right.
Unfortunately, the damage being done by blue state governors, absolutely insistent, like Gretchen Witless in Michigan.
The other ones, even Hogan in Maryland.
He's a Republican, but that's a name only.
Gavin Newsom, Andrew Cuomo, de Blasio in New York City, the mayor there, they're committed to bankrupting you.
That's what worries me a little, but that's why I think it's a reverse check and may not be a V. But either way, we're going to have a heavy rebound and we are going to have significant growth.
That's a good thing.
The Democrats are panicking.
They are totally, completely freaked out.
Let's go to screenshot number two from this.
The former Obama White House official is another person they would talk to said, quote, even today when we are, this is a great point.
When we're at over 20 million unemployed, Trump still gets high marks on the economy.
So I can't imagine what it looks like when things go in the other direction.
I don't think this is a challenge for the Biden campaign.
This is the challenge for the Biden campaign.
If they can't figure this out, they should all just go home.
That is from an Obama guy.
It's not me.
This is an Obama person in a left-wing rag politico saying, listen, people trust Trump with the economy, even now with 20 million unemployed because of the coronavirus.
They know it's not Trump's fault.
The economy was motoring before.
That point is prescient.
It's brilliant.
From a Democrat.
If you trust Trump now, the worst economic conditions in years due to this, because you know what he did before and he'll build it again.
If you trust him now, what's gonna happen when the economy grows at 15-20% when it rebounds from this hole we're in?
It's gonna be over for the Biden team.
What's their argument gonna be?
Again, Joe Biden, 2020, you suck, so does your job.
That's your campaign.
I mean, what are you gonna run on, dude?
Folks, think about this.
The economy GDP is going to drop probably close to 20%.
You know, numbers don't mean anything.
I don't wanna get too deep into the weeds here, but from an economic perspective, a healthy growth rate for the economy, GDP growth rate for our economy, an advanced economy, Is 3%.
Great, 4%.
Fantastic, 5%.
6%, we haven't seen.
6% growth since Ronald Reagan.
What was it, 1984, 1985?
He hit about 6%.
We haven't seen that in literally decades.
6%, which is magnificent!
What was it, 1984, '85?
He hit about 6%.
We haven't seen that in literally decades.
6%, which is magnificent.
At 7%, you double your economy in 10 years.
Can you imagine if right before the election, the economy comes in with a growth number of 21% or 22%,
three times higher than the largest growth number we've seen in the last 40 years?
[BLANK_AUDIO]
I'm not in any way making light of the struggle anyone's going.
Believe me, we read your emails.
I'm simply suggesting to you that if these Democrat governors can get out of the way.
We may look at growth numbers we have never seen in American history.
I had a little disagreement with Paul this morning about this, though.
Paul is like, well, people are still suffering and they may, you know, they still blame it on Trump and there's not really a message.
I totally, completely disagree.
Remember Obama when he ran historic deficits?
Biggest deficits we'd seen in American history.
Ironically, up till now, we're still running big deficits, even under the Trump administration, which is not good.
But Obama ran the largest deficits in American history.
He had cut those deficits in half, but they were still... Obama's smallest deficit he ever ran was larger than the biggest deficit under Bush years.
Remember that?
And Obama's campaign team was out there messaging like...
We're these debt and deficit cutters.
We cut the deficit.
Their smallest deficit, federal deficit, was larger than the largest deficit under Bush.
And it worked.
People would argue with me on Twitter, liberals saying, no, no, Obama's a big deficit cutter.
I would scratch my head in disbelief.
President Trump is going to be able to use that same tactic.
That we are now coming back.
These are the largest growth numbers in U.S.
history.
And you, on the other side of it, as a Democrat, going, No, no, no!
These are huge growth numbers!
But we were really in the pits and everything was really sucky!
That's not a winning message, folks.
I'm really sorry.
Really sorry.
People want optimism.
They want to know their lives and their prosperity and their jobs and their economic security, their food supply, their hospitals, their local businesses are coming back.
They don't want to hear your BS.
All right, got more.
Loaded show today.
All right, let me get to my second sponsor.

So now that we covered that, some good news, got everybody in the mood again, hopefully, off the economic doldrums we have to worry about every day.
Let's get to this story, because this is just, again, hat tip, huge hat tip.
I retweeted his thread this morning, Steven McIntyre, at Climate Audit is his handle on Twitter, for a great thread on the Russia hack!
The Russia hack of the DNC is becoming the new collusion hoax.
What are you, a conspiracy theorist?
I can see the media now.
No, I'm asking you, are you a conspiracy theorist?
Because you've told us, have we not, Joe?
Have they not told us these serious media people we're supposed to be listening to?
Remember the ones that promoted the Russia hoax?
Did they not tell us from the start that the Russians hacked the DNC?
They've told us that, right?
That's the whole collusion hoax.
Is it not?
Russia.
Let's, let's pretend we're media morons for a moment.
I know it takes you to, you got to drop it.
It's tough.
I get it, but let's pretend for a few minutes and let's buy their nonsense.
Okay.
So the media narrative has been for the last three years that the Russians hacked the DNC, the democratic national committee, they got the information.
And in conjunction with the evil Trump team, they released these emails from Podesta and the DNC and elsewhere.
They released them right door in the DNC and the Trump team knew and the Russians We're working with the Trump team to collude and hack the election.
What?
Now, obviously, you're saying to yourself, yeah, I've heard that.
I mean, I've heard it so much.
Of course it's true.
Well, is it?
Maybe.
But maybe not.
Stephen McIntyre has been all over this on Twitter and I'm going to put some highlights from a great, which I retweeted.
If you want to read the whole thread, it's long, but it's worth your time.
I'm at the Bongino.
You can check that out.
So the Russia hack is looking like the collusion hoax here.
Let's start making the case about at a minimum, the December 29th release of information in 2016.
What was that?
December 29th, 2016, Obama was still in office.
Oh yeah, he was December 29th.
Gotcha.
Dates, dates.
Come on, that date sounds familiar.
What else happened on December 29th of 2016?
December 29th, that's the same day Mike Flynn, the incoming National Security Advisor, called the Russian ambassador.
Remember about the Russian diplomats being expelled?
Oh yeah, same day.
Crazy how all this stuff happens on the same day.
Amazing.
So December 29, 2016, the Obama administration releases his statement.
The highlights are courtesy of Steve McIntyre's Twitter feed.
The Obama administration says, Finally, the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI are releasing declassified technical information on Russian civilian and military intelligence cyber activity to help network defenders in the United States and abroad identify, detect, and disrupt Russia's global campaign of malicious cyber activities.
Wow, interesting.
Does this to you sound like a The precursors of a narrative.
Remember, the media and the Obama administration were there to tell you a story, not the story.
So, conveniently on the same day...
Mike Flynn and the Russian ambassador talk about these expulsions Obama had done of these Russian diplomats.
Remember the call they accused him of lying him.
Obama releases this statement suggesting that, hey, we're just releasing this technical info on the Russian hack, which we're all supposed to assume happened, hack of the DNC type stuff, and we're releasing it to help the tech community out there make their own and take their own precautions.
So we would assume, being that the Obama administration already said it was the Russians, that they knew the hack was the Russians, right?
They had to know.
I mean, it's a digital footprint, is it not?
Well, let's go to the evidence and see how much these people are BSing us, which they're really very good at.
So let's look at this tweet from Stephen McIntyre in the thread where he suggests that the malware, you know, the malware they use, the malware to attack the DNC, he says in his Twitter feed, he says, quote, nearly all technical information pertain to a single form of PHP malware, which was almost immediately shown to be publicly available on the internet.
Ironically, from Ukraine, not Russia.
No! No! No! Really?
So the technical information, follow me here.
I'm not the most tech-savvy guy.
I leave that to Paula.
But that's why I took out just the easy to understand.
If you want the technical stuff about hashes and whatever Yara rules, you can read Steven McIntyre's full thread.
I'm trying to make this really simple for all of you.
December 29th, the Obama administration releases a statement saying, here's the technical information showing you this was definitely the Russians, man.
They say, precautions, Russia's at it again.
Yet, what's really weird is the technical folks like McIntyre and others that looked at it said, well, that's publicly available now where any Joey bag of donuts can get.
And most of it's from Ukraine.
What's a man to think?
I thought it was Russia.
Special, this was fancy Russian intelligence stuff.
So it was off-the-shelf stuff, largely originating from Ukraine?
Weird.
Because, you know, investigative journalists and media types would typically ask questions about that.
But we don't have any of those left now.
Not in the mainstream media.
Paula, I'm not crazy, right?
You're like a tech person, so it would leave a digital footprint.
You would think from Russia, like, I'm not crazy, right?
Now, you see how the Obama administration may have been trying to build a narrative here?
Again, I want to be clear.
I'm not suggesting the Russians didn't have some kind of election interference in the United States.
I'm simply suggesting to you that December 29th, the Obama administration's in a mad rush to set up Mike Flynn.
They got to get a narrative out there quick that the Russians hacked the election to make it seem like Flynn was a part of it when he calls the Russian ambassador.
Remember, they need a reason to interview him.
You following?
Yeah.
Yeah.
The problem is the technical information they put out saying, see we told you the Russians did a really bad thing proves nothing of the sort.
It shows an over-the-counter set of malware that largely originates from Ukraine.
Shh, don't tell anybody.
Now, you may say, "They can't be that stupid, Dan, to put out technical data knowing people are going to partner."
No, no, people weren't.
The media had no interest in this story, basically, at all.
The media just had an interest in filling in the blanks.
Trump sucks!
Colluded with the Russians!
Please give us something to write about!
So the Obama administration puts out technical information they don't think anybody's going to look at.
Finally, people start to look at it, and now it's appearing like this whole thing may have been made up.
You doubt me?
Look at this article on The Hill.
Again, on McIntyre's feed.
Worth your time.
What's the date on this?
Does that say December 29th?
Paula, my eyes are going.
It does.
December 29th.
I wasn't messing with her.
I need her help sometimes.
Obama under pressure to prove Russian interference in election.
December 29th, 2016.
We gotta get this Flynn guy.
We gotta start establishing Hillary didn't lose.
The Russians helped.
The Obama administration all of a sudden is under pressure to prove the dossier had some semblance of reality.
Trump's coming into office soon.
We gotta get this guy dirtied up fast.
We gotta get Flynn out.
Remember, Flynn's already got the letter from the United Kingdom saying the dossier is largely garbage.
Flynn knows this whole thing's a scam.
The Obama administration's under pressure to do two things.
Prove Trump didn't win legitimately and the Russians helped him, and prove Flynn was involved.
So they're in a mad crunch because the media starts asking questions, Joe.
They say what?
The media says, uh, we want to, let me imagine, here's what's going on in newsrooms.
Let me just, can I play Joe media guy?
Joe media guy.
Ah, boss to the executive editor-in-chief or whatever.
Listen, we really want to help Obama with this narrative here that Trump sucks and he colluded with the Russians.
We need to help him.
The problem is, I gotta print a story.
I need a little something.
You know, it doesn't have to be true, but a little touch of something.
Hold on, let me get on the phone to Obama.
Obama team, do you have anything?
Yes, we're going to send you this technical data.
It's really sophisticated.
It doesn't actually say the Russians hacked the DNC, but to the really stupid, deplorable, unwashed out there, they won't read any of it.
It's funny.
We're the ones who caught them later, you know, the great unwashed deplorables.
They won't be smart enough to read it.
Just throw out there that we have technical information that the Russians did it.
They scooped it up like Alpo.
That dog food scene in Hollywood.
Gross.
From the Hill article, by the way, showing you the pressure Obama's to produce anything, no matter how soft information that Trump, the Russians and Flynn were all involved in this scandal.
From the Hill article, December 29th, same day, by the way, same day as the Flynn call and this Obama release.
It says, I think the link between what the public gets to see and whatever retaliatory action Obama takes is going to be very, very tight, the Obama official said.
Showing information is a necessary precondition for most of the public types of retaliation that have been contemplated.
Oh, now it all comes together.
Now it all comes together.
So Flynn, who knows the collusion hoax is a hoax, General Flynn, Who's Trump's incoming national security advisor and an intelligence pro himself.
Has already been notified by the United Kingdom that the Steele dossier is probably a hoax.
He's probably figuring out that everything they use to try to tie Trump to Russia is a total hoax.
He's about to uncover it when he swears in in just a month, less than a month.
Everybody panics, the spygate plotters.
They have to back up their Russia hoax they've been using with the dossier, but they don't have anything.
So they get some tech people to fabricate some theory here that this December 29th thing on this technical data, this was definitely the Russians.
Could have been.
But that's not the evidence that that evidence doesn't show that at all.
They rush it out knowing a compliant media will eat up their Alpo.
Alpo time!
Alpo time!
Ring the bell.
Pavlovian response.
They start salivating like doggies.
Look, technical data shows the Russians did it.
It does.
That's not what that says, actually.
This is off-the-shelf malware, largely from Ukraine.
Yeah, but the public's really stupid.
We'll just print it.
Even the Obama administration themselves in the Hill says, hey, you know, we booted these Russian diplomats out of the country conveniently on the same day Mike Flynn was in the Dominican so we could spy on his phone calls because we knew he'd speak to the Russian ambassador after that.
And even the Obama administration official himself acknowledges that in order for us to kick these Russian diplomats out so we can listen to Mike Flynn talking about that on a call and then frame him later on, in order to get Mike Flynn to call the Russians, we have to kick out the diplomats, but we need a reason.
So let's just run with this technical malware thing.
Oh my gosh.
I can't believe the public has fallen for this again.
Not you.
For about 40% of Biden voters who actually believe that this hack is there's conclusive proof this Russia hack happened.
By the way, this is in my next book, too.
All right.
A lot more to cover.

This has been a lot of material so far, ladies and gents.
I'm really sorry we're kind of overloading, but the Tuesday show is always a monstrosity, because we got to catch up with every... Why are you staring at over there?
What?
What?
Oh, I'm centered?
Oh, she's a perfectionist there, Paul.
So just quickly, I saw this once upon a time in Hollywood, which is the dreadful Quentin Tarantino, who's just an awful human being.
But I wait for it to come on, because I refuse to give this guy a dollar.
We have these movie channels.
So we watched it.
And I gotta tell you a joke.
Not having been alive for the tragic murder of Sharon Tate and her friends by the Manson clue, I didn't realize what a cultural Really a shift in our cult.
That moment was, I mean, was that like the big story that must have been the big story of the time?
I can imagine.
Yeah.
I was, I was small then.
You remember that?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I do remember it.
It was a huge story.
It went on and on and on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I, I, you know, obviously I'm not, I was born in 1974.
It happened in 1969, but you know, Charles Manson, the psycho and his crew, I mean, in really grotesque, they murdered this actress, Sharon Tate, for you younger folks out there who don't know the story, who was an up-and-comer in Hollywood in really horrific fashion.
And Tarantino does a different spin on the story, but, you know, we watched it.
It was long, kind of took a long time to get to the end, but I just, being a 45-year-old, not having been alive for that, I really started reading about it.
I didn't realize what a shock to the cultural system that was for Hollywood.
They couldn't believe this had happened.
Interesting movie, nonetheless.
I cannot stand Tarantino.
I would not give this guy a dollar of my money ever under any circumstance.
All right, getting back to the show today.
Ladies and gentlemen, Obama knew.
Obama knew!
We've been saying it forever, Obama.
Obama knew what?
Well, Obama knew a lot of things, unfortunately.
You know, everybody says, oh, Obama, he wasn't that smart.
No, Obama was very smart.
That's the actual problem.
If Obama was a dunce, I'd feel better about it.
Like, oh, he was just too stupid to figure out what was going on.
No, no, no, no, no, he wasn't.
Obama knew what was going on with the hit on Trump and the hit on Flynn.
And matter of fact, I believe he ordered I think my next book, we make a good case of this.
I think there's no way to run from it anymore.
But John Solomon has an excellent piece in Just the News, which we have in the show notes again today.
Please read it.
Again, pajino.com slash newsletter.
Check it out.
It's worth your time.
Short and sweet.
John Solomon, the FBI documents that put Barack Obama right back in the Obamagate narrative.
Agents fretted sharing Flynn Intel with departing Obama White House because they thought it would become fodder for partisan axes to grind.
Folks, listen to me.
Forgive the repetitive nature of this, because most of you get it.
But to some of you still on the fence, thinking, did Obama know?
Is Dan exaggerating?
He knew.
When I say he knew, he knew about the spying operation on the Trump team.
He knew about the dossier.
And he knew about the subsequent hit on Mike Flynn afterwards.
We have all the White Houses running this.
POTUS wants to know everything we're doing.
Discussing later in October with the CIA, going over to the White House to speak with one voice.
These are all texts between FBI agents.
The White House wants to know everything.
POTUS wants to know everything we're doing.
President of the United States.
What do you think they were talking about?
Building a Lego house?
They were talking about, of course, Spygate.
Of course Obama knew everything they were doing.
But Solomon has an interesting takeaway from this.
Fascinating.
The FBI were texting each other about this PDB thing.
Why is this important?
I'll get to the PDB quote in a second.
Remember the two conflicting narratives we had on Mike Flynn.
General Flynn, it was a hit, ladies and gentlemen.
It was a surveillance hit.
There's no question about it.
The prior narrative, which the media Alpo eaters were sucking up because they were told it by dopes in the Obama administration, the former Obama administration, was we weren't spying on Mike Flynn.
We didn't order surveillance of him.
We don't do that.
We're not police state spies.
We were spying on the Russians and Flynn called the Russian on December 29th, and we just happened to hear him and figured out his name later because it was unmasked.
Nah, it's not what happened.
That's absolutely not what happened.
You notice how that makes Obama seem like kind of an innocent player in this?
Oh, shucks, man.
We just happened to catch Flynn talking to a Russian.
No, no.
No, no.
You caught a Russian talking to Mike Flynn.
That's the real story.
The surveillance hit, in other words, go monitor his phone calls, was ordered by the Obama team.
I'm telling you, this is going to be the tactical level 3, level 672 nuke coming out.
This is the MOAB, the mother of all bombs.
Obama ordered it.
Solomon has some more evidence today.
Texts I hadn't seen before.
So these are the FBI agents, right?
FBI agents who later go out and get the cut of Mike Flynn's phone call.
They're the ones that have the transcript.
From Solomon's piece, he says, the same day Stroke and Page, this is January 3rd, also discussed in text messages a drama involving one of the presidential daily briefings for Obama.
This is them texting each other.
Did you follow the drama, the PDB last week, Stroke asked?
Yup, don't know how it ended though, Page responded.
They don't include any of it, and Bill Pricestep didn't want to dissent stroke at it.
Wow, Bill should make sure Andy McCabe knows about that, since he was consulted numerous times about whether to include the reporting page suggested.
Let me translate for you that.
You know what, before we do it, go to McCabe's book, because it'll make more- This is Andy McCabe, deputy director of the FBI's book.
This'll make more sense.
Asking- It was right in front of our face the whole time.
How they got the recording of Mike Flynn.
How they wiretapped Flynn.
Remember the media story?
Oh, no, he wasn't wiretapping- We were listening to the Russians.
No, no, you were listening to Flynn.
From Andy McCabe's book.
He makes crystal clear, quote, the PDB staff decided to write an intelligence assessment as to why Putin made the choice he did about the expulsions.
They issued a request to the intelligence community.
Anyone who had information on the topic was invited to offer it for consideration.
In response to that request, the FBI queried our own holdings.
There it is!
There it is!
Now, going back to Solomon's piece.
Does this make sense now?
The Presidential Daily Briefing Staff.
That's what PDB is!
Libs!
I know you have a tough time with that kind of stuff.
Acronyms, you know?
First letter of the word, all that stuff.
I know it's complicated.
You're not really deep thinkers at all.
But Obama's presidential daily briefing staff puts out this edict to the FBI and others saying, hey, if you have anything about this Russia thing involving, you know, Flynn and the expulsions, you may want to find that.
They weren't interested in what the Russians were doing.
They knew the Russians.
They knew exactly what the Russians were doing.
The Russians were biding their time until Trump got in office.
They were doing nothing.
That's why they didn't respond to the expulsions.
They were interested in what Flynn was doing.
Now, do those texts make sense?
Can you put that up again?
The prior one, I don't mean to go out of order here, but look at this, the John Solomon piece.
When they're talking about the reporting and the PDB staff, he says at the end, they didn't want to include any of it, and Bill Price didn't want to dissent.
What are they talking about?
They were reporting, this is January 3rd of 2016, days after Flynn's call to the Russians.
The reporting they're talking about, ladies and gentlemen, is the investigation they'd already been doing on Mike Flynn since August of the prior year, where they determined he had done nothing wrong.
Now are you following me?
The Obama staff.
Hey, put information in Obama's brief about Flynn.
Hey, we have other information, too, that Flynn may be innocent.
Don't put that information in there!
That's what Stroke's talking about.
Hey, you know, uh, they don't want to put the reporting in there, and Bill Preistep, who's his boss, didn't, uh, didn't dissent.
Do you understand how devious these guys were?
Clowns.
Clown show.
Clown show.
Scary clown show.
Stephen King it's style.
They had information to give to the PDB staff showing Flynn had done nothing wrong.
And they withheld it.
Oh my gosh.
This man is a political prisoner, ladies and gentlemen.
Sorry, I talked moving away from the mic.
I know that drives some of you crazy.
I read your emails.
I'm trying.
I'm working on it.
I'm doing my best.
All right, I gotta get to this tech tyranny story.
I got that.
I got Jerry Nadler.
Jerry Nadler, yes, hack Democrat, one of the big losers in Congress, actually admitting paper ballots and mail-in ballots are a big problem.
You're like, no way!
Yes way!
I got that coming up too, so don't go anywhere.
All right, our final sponsor today, Freshly.
Freshly.
I eat the heck out of these because I love them.
I actually eat two at a time.
I like them so much.
Seriously.
I eat like a camel.
I store food in my hump, and Freshly is my go-to because it tastes amazing, it's delicious, and it's super easy to prepare, and I can't cook for the life of me.
Thankfully, Paula can.
I used to think eating better meant hours of recipe research, all these trips to the grocery store, and monotonous meal prep.
No, no, it doesn't.
You know what?
Freshly's the answer right there.
They understand food needs to be healthy, delicious, and simple.
Let's be honest.
If it's not easy, I'm not doing it.
You're not doing it either.
Who has time anymore?
And if it doesn't taste good, you definitely don't want it.
With Freshly, you can avoid the grocery store and enjoy fully prepared dinners delivered fresh, not frozen, right to your door.
Put your feet up and relax.
Freshly chefs and nutritionists do all the hard work.
All you do is heat for three minutes and dinner's done.
Again, I was a customer.
I have the evidence before they were a sponsor because their food is just really good.
Imagine, better for you, golden oven-fried chicken, creamy springtime risotto, and fall-apart tender brief biscuit.
It is delicious.
This is just a few of the 30-plus health-conscious options to choose from.
Join almost one and a half million satisfied customers.
Skip the shopping, prepping, cooking, and cleanup.
Freshly is offering our listeners $40 off their first two orders at freshly.com slash Bongino.
That's freshly, F-R-E-S-H-L-Y.com slash Bongino.
Go today.
The food is delicious.
Delicious, fresh, healthy, tastes amazing.
Paula, you love it.
Buffalo chicken is her favorite.
I have too many favorites to talk about today.
They're really absolutely amazing.
Buffalo chicken is Paula's absolute.
I have to wrestle it from her sometimes.
Freshly.com slash Bongino.
All right.
Getting back to our tech tyranny story, because I'm really infatuated with these types of stories.
Why?
Because Twitter, Facebook, and other forums out there, They've become the new public space.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's very hard to get away from them.
They become the space where we're supposed to exchange ideas, not just ideas, which make you comfortable.
I don't know about you, but I don't push for people to be banned from Twitter or Facebook because they support Obama and Biden.
Even though I think Barack Obama and Biden were the most corrupt presidential vice presidential team in human history.
I don't want them to be banned.
Free speech is free.
Not only when it's comfortable, Liberals do not feel the same way.
Why?
Because of the Dan Bongino Show axiomatic truth that conservatives think liberals are people with bad ideas and liberals think conservatives are bad people with ideas.
Big difference!
They want you gone, eradicated from Twitter and Facebook so they can talk in their echo chamber of stupid.
That's all they want.
Hello, hello, hello, hello.
I'm a moron, moron, moron, moron, moron.
I support Obama.
That's all they want.
They don't want you anywhere.
When I was a kid, I used to scream that at Forrest Brooks School in Smithtown when I was younger.
Hello, hello, hello.
I used to echo.
I was fascinated by it when I was a youngster.
The liberal echo chamber is the same thing.
I don't know anything, anything, anything, anything.
Obama's great, great, great.
That's all they want to hear.
And Twitter, of course, run by liberals, and Facebook, run by probably bigger liberals, will do anything in their power to shut you up, especially right before it came in.
That's why you gotta go over to Parler.
Full disclosure, they are a sponsor.
Parler, P-A-R-L-E-R.
They are a sponsor, but I've been there a long time, and I promise you, you're not gonna get any speech suppression over there, because they actually believe in free speech.
I love it.
Go over to them.
But here's a story in Breitbart about the Twitter tech tyrants at it again.
Now instead of just banning you, preventing us from running ads, which they did, we're not allowed to run ads on Twitter.
No one's ever explained why.
The reason is because we're conservative.
Shadow banning and all the other stuff that Twitter's been accused of, now they're pulling people's verification badges.
Mine will probably disappear today after this show.
You know, the blue check mark?
Yeah.
Twitter verification purge targets media-ite journalists who reported on Obama spying.
Rudy Takala.
Rudy Takala's verification badge was pulled all of a sudden, right after he starts reporting on Obama spying for media!
Can't have that guy verified.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with what I'm talking about, if you're on Twitter, it's a microblog, like Facebook.
I know you know what Twitter is.
But a blue checkmark next to your name means you're the real person.
They're supposed to do it for, you know, people with a public profile so that other people don't come and hack their profile.
They're pulling verification badges now.
It never ends with these people.
Ever.
Ever.
They really can't stand you.
They want you off their platform.
Stat!
Here's another one.
In case you think I'm making this up.
It's all a big conspiracy theory.
Legal insurrection.
Again, up in the show notes.
Great blog.
Yeah, we love it.
Facebook creates unaccountable international board to decide which content gets centered.
I'll get censored.
Wait, the subtitle's even better.
Here's a board member of Facebook's oversight board.
This is very Orwellian, folks.
Here we go again!
Here we go again.
Here's with the new Facebook oversight board.
your freedom of speech ends and the human rights of others take over.
Here we go again. Here we go again.
Here's what the new Facebook oversight board. This is, I mean, if, if there's ever been an Orwellian, the
oversight, you know what?
They probably sit, Joe.
You know, like on those elevated platforms, like when you watch the Superman movies and like the Council of Elders or whatever.
We are the oversight board.
You shall genuflect before me, sir.
Immediately.
You shall state your cases.
This is the oversight board.
This is so brutally Orwellian.
Their job now is to decide when free speech ends and human, your human rights be.
Where are they going?
The judges ruled, you know exactly where they're going.
The Facebook Oversight Board, here's what's gonna happen.
Mark my words, you have a right now not to be offended.
So that's what's coming on the Oversight Board.
People have a right to not be triggered, okay?
And when you tweet things like Obama was the most corrupt president in U.S.
history, even though that may be factually correct, that offends some people.
So we're gonna have to ban you off Facebook.
Twitter Oversight Board is next, by the way.
You have the right not to be offended.
Mark it!
Mark it!
That's what's coming next.
You have the right not to be offended.
Not you conservatives, you deplorable, smelly people.
Yeah.
I'm talking about liberals only.
You have the right not to be offended.
That's the oversight.
Where free speech ends and human rights begin, you don't have the right to not be offended.
Right?
I'm trying to think of like, have you ever seen that horrible Green Lantern movie?
Like they're sitting around with the Council of Green Lanterns, you have to come and that's what this is going to be.
Pretty soon we're all going to be... Pretty soon we're all going to be hauled in front of the oversight board in like, in plastic Flexi Cuffs.
Remember Flexi Cuffs?
And you're going to have to be standing up there, Mr. Bongino, please make your case.
Yes, I'm Dan Bongino.
I just think Obama's corrupt.
Wrong!
Wrong!
The Council of Elders has ruled Obama was not the most corrupt president.
You have offended me and millions of others.
You are hereby banned to the Phantom Zone.
The Facebook Phantom Zone.
You remember Superman 2?
You're stuck in the mirror.
Remember the mirror?
And then, what, the nuclear bomb detonates in space and breaks the mirror?
And what's his name?
General Zod comes flying.
There you go.
The Phantom Zone.
The Facebook Phantom Zone.
Joe, I, and Paula will be in the mirror.
Remember?
They're in the mirror spinning around Zod.
These younger kids are like, what the hell is he doing?
You see Superman and they're like this.
And they can't get out of the mirror.
That'll be us, the Facebook fans.
We'll need a nuclear blast to break the glass so we can get out and fly to Earth.
Kneel before Zod.
That's what's coming.
Folks, get away from these horror shows of a platform today.
Unfortunately, I'm still stuck there, but go to Parler.
Again, they're a sponsor, but you won't have any of these issues.
Set up your account today.
Get in.
Get in now.
This is the new hotspot.
I'm there.
Love it.
All right!
Two-pager!
Again, I'm a little excited today.
I know.
Sorry about that.
Some people are like, ah, Dan, you yelled to us.
Eh, it's just my thing.
Sorry.
I'm an excited guy.
Tried to change it.
Doesn't work.
So, this is a really terrific video.
Joe, quick question.
Audience fact check, which you as the audience referee, you are responsible for this.
Do you think mail-in ballots are done by paper?
This is not a trick.
Yeah, mail it in by paper, yeah.
So just to be clear, they don't mail a computer to your house and tell you to connect to the internet?
I'll just check.
Have you ever had that happen?
Paula, you've got a mail-in ballot, right?
Okay, so Joe worries him because I think he thinks I'm messing with him.
Joe is correct.
Mail-in ballots are usually done by mail.
They don't mail you a laptop and say, give me a favor, punch in some credentials and then make sure they mail you a paper ballot.
Now, President Trump has come out recently and said what?
That, listen, if we're gonna move to a mail- follow me here- mail-in ballots almost exclusively for this election due to the Wuhan virus, that that could be a big problem because we could be looking at a lot of voter fraud.
Now, the Democrats, who of course are always on- whatever Trump says, they say the opposite.
If Trump said, I love oxygen, they say, phantom zone for- I want no more oxygen!
Nobody is to breathe until the elec- No, whatever Trump says, they have to come out on the opposite side of it, despite the fact that most of what Trump says, they've been on that side of in the past at some point.
Chuck Schumer on immigration.
Well, here's Jerry Nadler.
To be clear, paper ballots are mail-in ballots.
They don't mail you a computer.
Trump has made a cogent, solid point that we should not move to exclusively mail-in ballots or largely mail-in ballots because those paper ballots can be subjected to fraud.
If no one has to show up.
Nadler, I know you Democrats are like, that's crazy.
That's just nuts.
Paper ballots are great.
These are terrific.
Mail-in ballots, there's no fraud.
Conspiracy theory!
You're making that up.
There's no fraud with paper ballots, especially mail-in ballots.
I found this on Twitter, forgive me, I always hat tip, I really forget who put this out there.
But it is a guy at Turning Point.
I saw it on his Twitter, I'm really sorry, I forget your name.
Buddy, not my fault, I'm just, like, I had a lot of material today.
But I found this on his Twitter feed.
Here's a C-SPAN video taken years ago of Jerry Nadler talking about how paper ballots, you know, mail-in, mail-in, paper, they don't mail you computers, how that could be a real problem for fraud.
No, no, this has gotta be doctored!
This gotta be doctored.
Jerry Nadler's a Democrat.
They said paper ballots are great.
No fraud.
I don't know.
Listen to Jerry Nadler yourself.
It's a very tempting point.
I just, as a very experienced practical politician from New York, I feel constrained to observe that in my experience in New York, paper ballots are extremely susceptible to fraud.
And at least with the old clunky voting machines that we have in New York, the deliberate fraud is way down.
compared to paper. When the machines break down and they vote on paper, we've had real problems.
So that's a, that is, there's got to be a way.
There's got to be a way, I'm simply observing that as a problem.
There's got to be a way of getting the best of our methodologies.
But in fact, the MIT studies have shown that hand-counted paper ballots are among the most reliable.
And at least if there's a miscount, you can discover it.
You can't discover miscounts with these machines.
Maybe optical scan with paper.
I want a paper trail.
I want paper somewhere.
But pure paper with no machines.
I can show you experience which would make your head spin.
Listen, I'm not a huge fan of the machine.
I like a machine backed up by paper with your signature.
I want voter ID.
I want it all.
But that's Jerry Nadler himself who just said it.
Pure paper?
No, no, I'm not for that.
Joe, you heard it, right?
Absolutely.
Rewind it, folks, if you don't believe me.
Pure paper, that's no good.
Last time I checked, again, you're not going to find a laptop in your mailbox.
Just check it.
But again, because it's Trump, when Trump says, hey, this pure paper mail-in ballot's probably not a good idea, a lot of fraud, Democrats are like, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not doing it.
Trump is definitely wrong.
But despite the fact they said the opposite years ago, I'm just saying, I'm just asking you to hold you to your own word.
Like, is that too much to ask?
Or just come out and say, you know what, old me was really dumb, this is the new me, I figured out some new information, here's why pure paper's a good idea.
Nobody's doing that.
They're just pretending they're memory holing this and pretending that none of this ever happened.
Oh man, we're doing good here.
We're doing good.
Let me get to this story.
This may have to be the last one, which is unfortunate because I have another good one too, but you may have to tune in tomorrow for that.
You know, Andrew Cuomo, you know, the governor of New York, the new golden calf Democrat Messiah.
Yeah.
They worship Cuomo, like Eyes Wide Shut, the Tom Cruise movie, where they walk around and like this, there's like an orgy of political worship and they're all dressed in masks and he's in the middle and they're like... They're chanting in like old school chants and worship of their new false god, Andrew Cuomo, as he approaches with a...
With, like, a staff and a crew.
No, even better.
He's, like, carried in on the shoulders of servants that are, like, using palm fronds.
They love Andrew Cuomo to cool his loins.
They love Cuomo.
Cuomo's the greatest thing.
They think Andrew Cuomo New York is the scion of political leaders.
He's Neo from the Matrix.
He's here to save you from the Matrix.
This guy has been an abomination, Cuomo from New York.
Not a joke.
Hat tip Rasmussen, the polling outlet.
Here is a New York Department of Health order.
Look whose name is in the upper left.
Oh, Andrew Cuomo!
Andrew Cuomo, governor.
In case you think it was another Andrew Cuomo who just slipped his name on this New York Department of Health thing.
Andrew M. Cuomo, governor.
Here's a little, you can check this out by youtube.com, by the way, slash Bongino if you want to look at it on the screen.
Here is an order saying that no resident shall be directed to admission, or basically you can't kick people out of a nursing home if they are COVID-19 positive.
You can see it right there in the highlights.
Again, hat tip, Rasmussen, I retweeted it this morning.
Wait, what?
So just to be clear, Andrew Cuomo, the golden calf of political leaders, we're all supposed to Neil before in worship told nursing homes in New York, his name is on that, that you're to accept COVID-19 patients, that you can't discriminate against them.
Basically, I'm not messing with him.
Giving a death sentence to people in those nursing homes, people in an age group where you knew this disease was fatal.
He sent this virus into nursing homes and signed the order.
I want you to screenshot that and show your liberal friends who think this guy is some kind of a political demigod we're all supposed to now genuflect before.
He sent people with this virus into an environment, a nursing home, containing people the most susceptible to this disease, many of whom later died.
Absolutely horrifying.
And yet we're supposed to use this guy as an example?
Example of what?
Failure?
People died.
People died.
Died.
This is not a joke.
People died because of this man's decisions.
And by the way, that was not the CDC guidelines.
There it is, in black and white.
You want to see the actual order, you can go to my, uh, my Twitter feed, go to Rasmussen's as well.
You'll see it right there.
Andrew M Cuomo, governor of New York.
Send the virus into nursing homes.
Can't discriminate.
Notice how he couches it in identity politics language.
A decision that literally killed people.
Disgusting.
All right.
I got another good story tomorrow.
New York Post story about new rules with the media.
I was going to get through today, but I need some time with this.
Got to massage that one.
It's not really a quick one, but it's good.
New rules.
We win, they lose.
That's it.
Someone emailed me this morning.
They were like, Hey, I saw those shirts on your website that you guys sell.
And they didn't understand a lot of the, cause it's been so long since we said that my other meatloaf or the Joey bag of donuts stuff.
So I'll have to start reincorporating some of those.
It'll make a lot of sense.
All right, thanks again for tuning in.
I really appreciate it.
