This Guy Is A Dangerous Threat To The Republic (Ep 1662)
We are losing the country. And Attorney General Merrick Garland is one of the main reasons. In this episode I address the latest troubling scandal. I also address the media meltdown over the explosive growth of the parallel economy.
News Picks:
Big news about Devin Nunes.
Psaki refuses to admit that the real Hunter laptop, is real.
No surprise here, but more confirmation that blue states aren’t free anymore.
Liberals are in a panic over the parallel economy.
Just 22% of voters want Biden to run again.

Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host, Dan Bongino.
Folks, our Attorney General in the Biden administration, Merrick Garland, is an existential threat to the Constitutional Republic right now.
I'm serious.
The guys, the threat to liberty and freedom by this guy Merrick Garland, Eric Gino, Attorney General and name only, is getting serious.
He pulled another one of his stunts and scams yesterday.
This guy's making Eric Holder look like a straight-laced straight shooter.
He's weak, he's pathetic, he is the king of the useful idiots, Merrick Garland, and he's going to cause everlasting damage to this country if he's not impeached or he doesn't resign soon.
I got a lot to get to today.
That, Saki blowing it again.
Debalzio blowing it up in New York and the right wing echo chamber.
What the hell is that?
Axios losing their mind.

Welcome to the Dan Bongino show.
Let's get right to it.
And I also want to ask the question today during the show, I've got some video that emerged yesterday.
What in Hades is going on with Dan Crenshaw, Republican congressman from Texas?
I just don't get it.
A lot of false prophets out there, folks.
And I'm really getting disappointed.
He was very nice to my, took a nice picture with my daughter.
We were in the Fox Green room like three, four years ago.
A nice enough guy, you know, obviously some service to the country that's worth acknowledging, some impressive service to the country, but that doesn't absolve you of doing the right thing.
And I'll get to that later.
I think it's gonna disappoint you a little bit, but it's worth talking about.
If you're in the market for a rifle, shotgun, or revolver, you want to go with the best in the business, and as far as I'm concerned, that's Henry Repeating Arms.

All right, Joe, let's go!
All right!
There you go.
It is December 7th, and Joe appreciates the military as deeply as I do.
Family members, we do have to acknowledge the patriots who gave their lives at Pearl Harbor, one of the largest attacks on American soil in U.S.
history.
To all the men and women and their families, we will never forget December 7, 1941, all of those patriots who gave their lives.
To advance the principles of freedom and liberty and defeat Nazism and fascism around the world, we thank you for your service.
December 7.
A day that will live in infamy, as was said.
Okay, I'm getting back to the story I initially opened the show with.
Folks, Merrick Garland, I'm not kidding, is an existential threat to liberty and freedom.
The problem he has, in contrast to Eric Holder, who was the worst attorney general in U.S.
history prior to Merrick Garland, and Merrick Garland's only been in office for less than a year, Is, is Holder at one, Holder seemed at least mildly politically concerned with what would happen, at least within the Democrat party.
Garland is a weak, pathetic loser.
This guy is a loser.
I had Jim Jordan on my show, radio show, last week as a guest.
And he told me they are now looking into Merrick Garland and the Department of Justice and that school board letter scandal.
The National School Boards Association, remember the letter they sent to the Department of Justice?
Yeah.
Demanding parents be investigated like domestic terrorists for showing up at school boards and complaining about CRT.
Jordan's team has evidence that the school board letter may have been the new dossier.
In other words, Garland's Department of Justice had already committed to investigating parents as domestic terrorists and weaponizing their law enforcement abilities, and they just needed the school board to provide the letter to give this thing a facade and a patina of credibility.
That is an incredibly serious story I will stay on.
But Garland has been all over the scandal sphere from the moment this guy got in office.
Here's the latest breach right here.
Merrick Garland, this disgusting, weak, pathetic, useful idiot, weaponizing his power and weaponizing the race argument to now help more Democrats get elected to Congress.
Watch this video, it's quick.
There's a little teaser here.
This is Merrick Garland now suing the state of Texas, weaponizing the DOJ, Claiming he doesn't like their congressional map because it may favor Republicans.
So Merrick Garland's now a full-time political activist.
He's running a PAC.
DOJ PAC.
The DOJ Political Action Committee.
He's basically donating in kind to Democrats right here.
Check out this video.
Here's Garland.
Today the Justice Department has filed suit against the state of Texas for violating section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.
As the Supreme Court has observed, a core principle of our democracy is that, quote, voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around, close quote.
Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act requires that state voting laws, including laws that draw electoral maps, provide eligible voters with an equal opportunity to participate in the democratic process and elect representatives of their choosing.
The complaint we filed today alleges that Texas has violated Section 2 by creating redistricting plans that deny or abridge the rights of Latino and Black voters to vote on account of their race, color, or membership in a language minority group.
This guy is the single most corrupt Attorney General.
This weak, pathetic, grotesquity, this useful idiot in the Attorney General's office doesn't even care anymore about the political ramifications of appearing to be a political hack.
Thank the Lord this loser is not on the Supreme Court.
My gosh, I'm no McConnell guy, but that may be the greatest move Mitch McConnell ever made.
Blocking this corrupt, useful idiot from the Supreme Court.
Notice what he does there.
He uses a fake discrimination argument to sue the state of Texas because he doesn't like Texas' congressional map.
But notice who's not in that lawsuit.
All of the blue states who have gerrymandered their states to death, and Joe's saying yes because Joe lives in Maryland, and Joe knows where I'm going with this.
So, for those of you who are, notice who's not in the lawsuit.
He sues the biggest Republican state out there, Texas.
He sues them over their map, but he doesn't sue Maryland, where I ran for office.
Put up the picture of Maryland, if you don't mind.
This is from Maryland Matters.
Here's Maryland's congressional map, folks.
They call District 3 in Maryland, if you can even find it on this map, if you want to look at it, go to rumble.com slash Bongino.
They call District 3 in Maryland, which Joe knows well, they call it the salamander.
Now, if you can even find the contiguous nature of District 3 in Maryland, good luck!
Now, they carved Maryland up to death.
You know how I know this?
Because I ran.
You see that Western Maryland district, the 6th?
That used to be a blood-red district.
It was contiguous.
It covered the Western Maryland, the Western and the mountains out there.
All the way over to Carroll County.
Well, what did they do?
They cut it south.
Into occupied Montgomery County, which is like communist, to make sure they got rid of that Western Maryland seat.
They're trying to do the same thing in District 1 on the Eastern Shore right now to get rid of Andy Harris, the only Republican member of Congress in the state of Maryland, which has a 7-1 delegation.
But notice, notice that's not in the lawsuit.
Why?
Because Merrick Garland is a pathetic political activist fraud who's running DOJ PAC.
Don't ever forget that.
DOJ PAC, the Department of Justice Political Action Committee, is being run by now by this grotesquety in the White House who targeted parents with his DOJ, may have known about it in advance, May have used the National School Board letter as a dossier and a pretext and is now trying to sue the state of Texas to make sure that Democrats have a chance at holding Congress in the 2022 midterms.
The man is disgusting.
I can't say enough negative things about this grotesque human being, this weak, pathetic human being.
Oh, Dan, you're mad at Merrick Garland.
Yeah, yeah, I am.
The Attorney General is supposed to be a non-partisan actor working on behalf of law enforcement interests for the citizens of the United States.
He's not supposed to be a two-bit hack, political action committee chairman running an activism operation for the Democrat Party.
It does show how desperate they are, you're right, because they know how vapid their entire movement is.
Keep your eye on this guy, folks.
It is going to get worse as the Biden administration goes down and down and down in credibility.
This man is the useful idiot right now.
This weak, sniveling, pathetic, you hear him up on Capitol Hill?
Be pathetic.
Speak up, chump!
Probably be knocking at my door next.
Don't care.
Double-barreled, family-friendly middle finger.
Loser.
Now, Garland notices doing nothing about the explosive revelations in Miranda Devine's new book, Laptop from Hell, about Hunter Biden.
Doing nothing about that, the DOJ and the Attorney General, because Merrick Garland's not a serious human being.
He's a useful idiot.
He is there as a protection racket, insulating the corrupt Biden family from the explosive allegations in this book that Hunter Biden had extensive business ties to foreign enemies of the United States and that his dad, Joe Biden, the sitting president right now, was involved.
So finally, an act of journalism yesterday from the terrific New York Post.
They were in the press room yesterday.
Well, a colleague, I should say, Miranda Devine, was in the press room.
And ask Peppermint Patty Saki about the explosive revelations about Hunter Biden's corrupt foreign business dealings with his dad overseas.
Watch Saki, she didn't like this question, and she says something interesting here.
She says, well, Hunter Biden's not a government employee.
Oh, really?
Don Jr.
wasn't a government employee either, and I don't recall Don Jr.
being left alone by the press because Don Jr.
wasn't a government employee.
Kind of weird how that's now the new criteria, despite the fact that whether he was a government employee or not, Hunter Biden's irrelevant because his dad had intermingled his own business interests, including a checking account.
Here, you doubt me?
Watch Peppermint lose her mind because she doesn't get an ass-kissing question from her usually acolytic crowd there in the press room.
Check this out.
My colleague Miranda Devine has a new book out called The Laptop from Hell and I was hoping that you could confirm that the laptop is indeed authentic and not Russian disinformation as you seemed to suggest on Twitter last year.
Well, on the first, the President's son is not an employee of the federal government, so I'd point you to his representatives.
And as it relates to the book, I have neither had the time nor interest in exploring or reading the book.
Go ahead, Tina.
Go ahead, Tina.
I think I answered your question.
Go ahead.
You can go to the representative of the person who's not an employee of the federal government.
Go ahead, Tina.
I think we have to move on.
Go ahead.
Now do you understand why upwards of between 70 to 90% of conservatives and Trump supporters completely gaff off the media?
Where's the rest of the media asking these questions?
When Don Jr., who was not a government employee either, when his father, Donald Trump Sr., was President of the United States, Don Jr.
became a daily target of investigations and media inquiries.
So did other members of the family, some who were, some who weren't members of the White House staff.
But now all of a sudden there's a new criteria, and the media's not interested at all.
Well, Hunter's not a government employee, despite the fact that their business interests were intermingled.
These people are total phonies, folks.
Fakes and frauds.
And what's Merrick Garland doing about it?
The answer is Merrick Garland's doing jack squat, because Merrick Garland is too busy running DOJ PAC, trying to get more congressmen from the Democrat Party elected in the great state of Texas, because that's who he is.
He is a useful idiot.
Useful to the socialist propagandists on the left.
Yeah, Don was a- Kids.
He was a punching bag, Dan.
Oh, every day.
Yeah.
Up on Capitol Hill.
I can't say this enough, though.
Thank you.
I am not a huge McConnell guy, that's obvious.
But thank you for keeping Garland, this grotesquity, off the Supreme Court, where we'd have to deal with this idiot for the rest of his life.
All right, speaking of idiots, unintentional segue there.
Did you see de Blasio yesterday?
I covered it on my radio show.
News broke after the show.
The mayor of New York, a communist mayor, Bill de Blasio.
He is just days from leaving office.
He was not eligible to run for re-election, so Eric Adams is now the mayor-elect.
We'll be taking over in, what is it, three days, two days, a couple days from now?
So before he leaves office, Debalzio thought it would be a good idea to institute a vaccine mandate citywide for the private sector, which will not stand in court.
We'll get blown out of court.
But Debalzio couldn't leave without burning the city to the ground.
This is the Nero of our time.
So he gives a goofy, uncomfortable speech yesterday.
The background noise is part of his video.
It's not ours.
Joe did the best he could.
But this is kind of like what meant to be one of those like Candid moments.
Look, it's Bill de Blasio walking around the street talking about the vaccine.
I know it's de Blasio.
It's de Blasio on this show.
So you'll hear a little bit of background noise, but here's de Blasio saying, hey man, this is all about just making people safe.
Making people safe?
Really?
That's fascinating because he didn't really seem to care about making people safe with his lockdowns and everything else when none of that stuff worked and he did it again.
Check out de Blasio.
Omicron's here.
Winter's coming.
We've got to go even farther.
Today in New York City, we announced a mandate.
All private sector employers must have their employees vaccinated by December 27th.
This is what's going to keep us safe.
This is the kind of thing we need to do now, not just here, but everywhere, so we can leave COVID behind once and for all.
Now, folks, I want to dispel a few myths about this because I follow intensely.
It's my job.
Preparation for the show is my job.
Your job is your job.
My job is mine.
I'm here to make your life and analyzing the current political climate easier.
You all have, I have an easy job.
I talk for a living.
You all are the engineers, the pilots, the carpenters, the electricians, the cops, the military folks.
Those are real jobs.
Okay.
My job's easy.
I don't put myself in your class.
All right.
I don't, I mean it.
I'm not trying to be silly about it.
I mean it.
You all do all the hard work.
My job is to cut through the BS.
But one of the things I do is I analyze a lot of these political trends by following some key accounts on social media.
And one of the things I noticed is there's this, Narrative building that, oh, you know, de Blasio is going out the door and he's just trying to burn the city to the ground.
Yes, de Blasio has burned the city to the ground.
We already get that.
But that's not why he did this.
I want to be crystal clear you understand this.
Because a lot of people are like, well, my gosh, this vaccine mandate in New York City is going to be grossly unpopular.
Ladies and gentlemen, no, it isn't.
That's the point.
De Blasio wants to run for governor of New York State, which is laughable on its face, because he has no chance of getting votes northwest and east of the city at all.
He's hated out—he's even hated in New York City.
The man has no chance at all.
He'll get as many votes as he got for president, which is precisely zero.
But De Blasio did this vaccine mandate precisely because it is popular.
I know that's not what people want to hear.
They want to hear, oh, there's going to be a mass outcry against this.
Folks, there isn't.
There's going to be a substantial number of liberty-loving patriots in New York City and New York State, and there are a lot of them.
I grew up in New York.
Believe me, there are a lot of them who are going to be upset.
But I promise you, it is not going to be the majority in New York City.
Folks, the people in New York City, large majorities of them, are leftist nuts.
They want this.
They love the tyranny.
They love the lockdowns.
They love the mandates.
These are the same kids waltzing their five-year-olds in, begging them to get vaccinated.
This is not unpopular.
Don't buy the hype.
Oh, he's burning it down.
He's not burning anything down.
What he's doing is burnishing his political credentials by kissing the left wing's ass in an attempt to get the nomination for the Democrat party for the governorship.
This is popular with them.
They love the tyranny.
I don't want you to be under any illusions otherwise.
And why do I bring it up?
I don't bring it up just to rip on the left.
I bring it up.
I don't talk about stories if I don't feel like I have some color to add to it.
Because I'm telling you, if you live in New York City, folks, nothing is going to change.
You have to move.
I'm sorry to give you the bad news.
I get these emails all the time.
I want to move, but, folks, there's no buts anymore.
No buts.
You gotta go.
Nothing is going to change.
de Blasio did this vaccine mandate because people want it in New York.
You are surrounded by little mini-tyrants.
You've got to go.
Don't believe this.
He's doing it to burn the city.
He's doing it because it's popular.
That's the takeaway.
Get away from these people as soon as you can.
Move to places that respect your freedom and liberty and reinforce them.
De Blasio did not do it out of a sense of vengeance.
Believe me.
He's too calculating for that.
Don't fall.
Remember, the Bongino rule.
Give it 24 to 72 hours before you analyze these situations.
The first take, the hot takes, are typically wrong.
Okay, let me get to my second sponsor.

You're going to love this company.
All right.
So back to the show.
So Axios, which is becoming just a sad parody now of a new site.
They started out okay.
And now we're just falling into the typical company line.
You know, I heard something once.
Um, and it's true.
I hear these things that stick with me forever.
You know, one of them was that there are two kinds of people who see the world differently, the super rich and the super political.
And you know what?
As I got involved in politics and made a little money myself, yes, they're absolutely right.
Super political people see everything differently because it's like their eyes are open to the, uh, to what happens right in front of their eyes.
I think of that dirty dancing movie when you start to see the bias in Hollywood and you see the way to Robbie, who's like the real, Turd burglar in the movies, total loser.
And he comes up and he's like, and Rean Fountainhead by Ayn Rand, like trying to, the writer trying to shake it and whole abortion thing in there, right?
You start to see messaging everywhere.
The super rich see everything different too.
They see everything different because they don't, they don't have want for anything.
Whatever they want, they can just buy.
We don't have that regular folks like us, right?
One other thing I was told is an organization that doesn't start out as explicitly conservative and right-leaning will always go farther and farther left.
Axios is a perfect example of that.
Axios has been going into the leftist nut domain for a long time now.
Here is a ridiculous article.
The article's about Rumble.
As you know, I'm an investor in Rumble.
They just won public in conjunction with CFVI.
I've been talking about it on the show.
This apparently troubles Axios, which headlines that the right wing is building its own echo chamber.
Echo chamber.
That's freaking hilarious.
Echo chamber.
Keep it, but this is Axios.
Axios, who now has their lot in with CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, New York Times, Washington Post, USA Today, the LA Times, Chicago Trib, New York Daily News, all of these left-wing nut papers that in their own real echo chamber got America to believe a pee-pee tape was real, Hunter Biden's laptop was fake.
They got America to believe that through an echo chamber of stupid, and Axios is worried about Rumble.
And Trump's new social media platform, Truth Social, which is launching soon, he's worried that that's going to create an echo chamber.
That's freaking hilarious.
Especially considering the fact that Rumble is, oh, it's a free speech platform.
It's not a right-wing platform.
You want to be a liberal post on Rumble?
Go right ahead.
Unlike you frauds and Axios and hypocrites, we're not echoing anything.
We are echoing one thing.
I take that back.
We're echoing foundational principles of the Constitutional Republic and an allegiance to free speech, and I know that bothers you.
You understand why Axios, these left-wing nuts, are so threatened by Rumble, True Social, Parler, Getter, all these platforms.
You understand why that is?
It is a threat to their messaging echo chamber philosophy.
So what do they do?
They blame you for what they're doing.
Oh, the right's creating an echo chamber.
No, we're creating a non-echo chamber.
Get out of the echo chamber on the left, you idiots.
Little bitter day, folks.
Sorry.
Stories kind of got me a little bit annoyed.
I know.
I mean, I don't mean to... But it's just so frustrating how... It's so obvious what's happening.
The left has built a monopoly on left-wing, hardcore, hard-left messaging.
They're so offended that free speech platforms out there have broken the monopoly that they go on attack mode and then they pretend that they're doing something benevolent.
Oh, we're trying to prevent a right-wing echo chamber.
You know what?
Again, double-barreled, folks.
Serious double-barreled.
All right, moving on.
Speaking of another person I'm a little annoyed with today.
I'm actually in a good mood, I promise.
I'm not like, Dad, you're in a salty mood.
No, I'm really not.
I'm in a really good mood.
I slept okay for the first time last night.
The Rona has finally fully passed through me.
Now the cough has even dissipated a bit.
Only cough now when I laugh.
By the way, if you get that Rona cough, it's a real pain in the butt.
It keeps you up.
It lasts days after you're contagious.
But a guy who really annoyed me this morning is this Congressman Crenshaw.
He's obviously a Republican from Texas.
You've probably seen him on the news, which is ironic with Crenshaw because he does these Flashy, splashy ads for these candidates that look like movies and stuff, and yet he's calling other people performers.
Now, listen, with due respect to the man's service to the country, and I sincerely mean that, That does not absolve you of making the right decisions going forward.
People serve the country honorably and then can go on and make a series of bad decisions later.
I.e.
Bob Mueller and others.
I'm not comparing Crenshaw to Mueller.
I'm simply suggesting that your prior service does not mean for the rest of your life you're bound to make the right decisions.
People get corrupted.
Unfortunately, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts.
Absolutely.
But folks, this is an equal opportunity show here.
We pride ourselves on sticking to a set of foundational principles.
And what is going on with Crenshaw?
I just don't understand it.
So this was some video taken at an event he did with a congressional candidate.
Littrell, he did this event and he gets, someone videos it, he's given this speech and he starts
talking about and bashing for some bizarre reason the Freedom Caucus members of Congress
who are by far the most, have the highest degree of allegiance to foundational and constitutional
principles and he gives a pass, I'm not kidding, you'll hear it yourself, to Adam Kinzinger.
And then he just, like, makes it up that Kinzinger somehow is some kind of, like, bedrock Republican legislator.
Clint Kinzinger, the guy who voted for the Trump impeachment, the loser who spends his entire day attacking Republicans.
Here, listen to Crenshaw, and I ask again, what in Hades is going on with this guy?
Talking about the performers versus the legislators.
Check this out.
I've been in Congress for almost three years now.
There's two types of members in Congress.
There's performance artists, and there's legislators.
Now, the performance artists are the ones that get all the attention.
The ones you think are more conservative, because they know how to They know how to recite the lines that they know that our voters want to hear.
Let me tell you guys something.
In the first two years of Trump's presidency, when Republicans were in control, when every single time we were voting on Donald Trump's agenda, who do you think was at the top of that list voting with Trump and who do you think was at the bottom?
A lot of names you would recognize were at the bottom of that list.
A lot of names you would recognize were at the top of that list.
Number two is probably going to make you cringe a little bit.
It's Adam Kinzinger.
Voted with Trump almost 99%.
He was number two.
You know who's at the bottom?
Everybody in the Freedom Caucus.
All of them.
What you hear so often is not true.
It's not true.
We have grifters in our midst.
Not here, not like in this room.
That's not what I mean.
I mean in the conservative movement.
Lie after lie after lie because they know something psychologically about the conservative part or worry about what people are going to do to us, what they're going to infringe upon us.
He just brought up a good point.
I mean, he's like, I used to like this guy.
So, yeah, me too.
I always default to liking a guy who's given so much for the country on the battlefield.
But I did tell Guy, day one, Guy's been here a while now.
As long as Joe, Joe is the, uh, the, uh, Joe's the godfather of the operation, then the capo as well.
But Guy's been here a while now.
And Guy said to me, one of the first, he said we were watching a video together, you know, plays during the show, most of them.
And, um, Guy said to me, Joe, he goes, you know, I remember one of the first days I was here, you warned me about this guy.
I did!
I did, because I'm telling you, I'm tired of the all hat, no cattle, false prophets.
Nothing Crenshaw said there is true.
Nothing.
Adam Kinzinger is some bedrock conservative legislator.
So I went to the gold standard.
Hear me out on this.
If you want to check The conservative bona fides of your legislator in Congress or the Senate.
Disclosure, I used to work there, but I have no financial arrangement with them whatsoever anymore.
Joe remembers well, where Joe did some work there too.
Conservative review has a thing called the Liberty Score.
The Liberty Score, remember it.
Conservative Review's Liberty Score.
If you ever want to see if your congressman is a real patriot or a performer and a loser, just go to Liberty Score, Conservative Review, and just look them up.
So I did just that, because Dan Crenshaw says Kinzinger is some like, what, bedrock legislator we should be looking up to?
His Liberty score out of 1 to 100 was an astounding 45%!
45!
Joe, now you and I went to school in different eras, but was 45% ever passing when you went to school?
No, Dan, it wasn't.
No, it wasn't!
Okay, thank you.
I'm reasonably confident, even with the milking down now of educational standards, 45% is still failing, and you'll see Adam Kinzinger, there's a screenshot on now if you're watching on Rubble, got an F. An F.
On the gold standard of congressional scoring, conservative reviews, liberty score.
So, Crenshaw said something else.
He said, and those Freedom Caucus members, you know, the Freedom Caucus, the Republicans who actually believe in the Constitution, they're at the bottom of the list.
Are they?
So I just looked up a few.
Here's Andy Biggs.
He gets 100% liberty score.
That's an A. Yeah.
There's Paul Gosar.
He gets a 98%.
That's an A. Let's go to some more.
Here's Warren Davidson, a Freedom Caucus member.
He gets an A, 96%.
I don't see Kinzinger anywhere in there.
No.
Here are three more Freedom Caucus members.
Jim Jordan, A, 94%.
Jeff Duncan, A, 94%.
Ken Buck, A, 94%.
Yeah, no Kinzinger.
So basically what I'm telling you is Crenshaw is full of stuff.
It rhymes with hit.
Thank you for your service, but you're lying.
So you may say, well, Dan, he didn't say Kinzinger was a conservative.
Because again, unlike the left-wing media, I do facts here.
He said people who voted with Trump.
To give it a fair analysis, some of the legislative proposals that came through in the Trump era that Trump supported, a lot of them were spending bills that the Freedom Caucus is never going to support.
So the Freedom Caucus and their alignment with the Trump presidency sometimes is low, not because the Freedom Caucus weren't conservative, but because they don't like deficit spending bills.
Now, Crenshaw knows that, but again, Crenshaw's not dumb.
Crenshaw thinks you're dumb.
But here's the funny thing.
Even when you take Crenshaw at what he said, Kinzinger was a 99% voter.
That's just at the top of the list who were before Kinzinger in voting with President Trump.
And it was not 99%.
He made that up.
Folks, listen.
We are never, ever going to fix this country if the people who hijack our brand become false prophets.
I can't say this to you enough.
Crenshaw is doing what the left does here.
He knows he is, in fact, one of these false prophets, so he's turning it around and blaming it on Conservative Inc.
Which is stunning.
Because how often have I warned you?
Conservative Inc.
is a real thing.
But it's not who you think.
The grifter class out there is real.
I am begging you to see through it.
There are people who really believe what they say.
The Levin's out there.
The Tucker's out there.
And then there's a class of grifters.
This guy is one of them.
Performers.
He's the one doing the G.I.
Joe videos.
Again, due respect to the man's service.
Don't take any of that away from him.
But that was a disgusting speech he should issue a full-throated apology for.
Adam Kinzinger.
That's your guy.
That's the hill to die on.
Adam Kinzinger.
Someone should primary that guy.
Stat.
Stat.
I did.
I warned you about it.
All right.
Um, let me get to, uh, excuse me.
I just told you like the COVID cough was going away too.
Here's what I got coming up with my next sponsor.
But, uh, Alan Bakari, who's a tech writer has been mourning for a while.
He's a great tech writer at bright bar has been mourning about what's happening with Twitter, with the new CEO.
He's been mourning about speech censorship for a while.
I got a warning coming up for you around Twitter, around Twitter.
I'm telling you, I've warned you last week.
I'll never steer you wrong in the show.
Get ready.
They're coming for your account next.
I promise.
Okay, quickly on this story, but it's another warning.
So Jack Dorsey has stepped down as the CEO of Twitter.
Folks, this is nothing to celebrate.
The guy taking his place is even worse.
He is openly committed to, he has said on his Twitter account that the first, or excuse me, not on his Twitter account, in an interview, that really their priority right now is not the First Amendment, but basically using tech to mold narratives going forward.
Alan Bakari, a great writer at Breitbart, has been reporting over the last few days the mass purge of a number of conservative Twitter accounts.
He thinks, and I always put an asterisk here because he admits it's some speculation, he doesn't work at Twitter, but he thinks what happened is that Twitter's activating an old algorithm they use to basically mass purge conservative accounts.
The evidence is right there.
I'm begging you.
Please, I've been clear from the start.
I don't spin your wheels.
I put my money where my mouth is.
I've invested in these things because I want to see them succeed.

I'm warning you, it's for all of our own good here.
This is an important story, folks, and it's more evidence of an ongoing evergreen narrative I've been working on with this show for a very long time.
The evergreen narrative is this, that liberalism, the essence of liberalism is to destroy the poor, minority communities, and the middle and lower middle class.
You're probably like, Dan, are you getting this all wrong?
The liberals told us that's conservatives.
Yes, exactly.
That's like Dan Crenshaw calling other people performers.
No.
The essence of liberalism is to decimate the middle class and the poor and destroy minority interests and their ability to engage in a more prosperous future and economy.
That is, it's conservatism that advances the real equity interests.
I show you stories like this all the time.
Liberals love inflation.
Who does inflation hurt?
The poor.
Doesn't hurt the rich.
The rich just borrow cheap and buy stocks and invest it in their companies.
The liberals are against school choice.
School choice?
That doesn't hurt the rich.
The rich will just buy a school and send their kids there.
It hurts the poor, who are now stuck in sucky private schools.
The liberals love government healthcare.
What does that mean?
Does that mean the rich are going to get stuck in government clinics?
You bought that?
You know what the rich get?
Concierge healthcare with private physicians that come to their house while you're stuck in a government dental clinic getting your teeth pulled without Novocaine.
Liberalism is the suck.
Everything they do makes your life suck more if you're poor.
I am telling you, this is a fact.
Stop getting suckered.
Here's another piece of evidence adding to how liberalism does the most damage to the poor.
Wall Street Journal piece.
Squaring up to defend mathematics.
What?
Who's defending?
We're defending math now?
Oh yeah, they are.
Here's what happened.
Liberals have been engaged in a war on math.
Why?
Because liberals are failing in public schools.
They can't teach minority kids how to do math.
We lag way behind competitively in math and reading around the world.
So instead of taking the blame and blaming the teachers unions who are really at fault for this, what are they doing?
Liberals blame the process and they say, what?
Yep, you guessed it, Joe.
Math is racist.
Definitely the math.
The math is racist, folks.
So they're now engaged in a war on math.
Thankfully, some smarter liberals are starting to say to themselves now, Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
We're now going to dumb down standards and make kids who are struggling struggle even more by not giving them anything to achieve?
Yes.
So they wrote a letter and said, hey, this is stupid.
This is a group of, by the way, liberals and left-leaning folks, maybe a few right-leaning folks first, but they're saying, hey, this is stupid.
Here's from the Wall Street Journal.
They wrote, this is supposed to advance, quote, equity.
But in addition to damaging America's global competitiveness, the letter says, the decline of rigorous math in public schools may lead to a de facto privatization of top-tier instruction and harm students with fewer resources.
Amen, brothers and sisters!
What's gonna happen now?
Rich and upper middle class kids are going to evacuate public schools that don't do math the right way anymore because they want equity in math scores, right?
And they're going to go where?
To private schools, effectively privatizing high-level math instruction, making the rich kids smarter in the end.
Maybe they don't have more aptitude, but they'll have more achievement, and then all of a sudden leaving the poor kids behind.
Folks, the evidence is everywhere.
Liberalism is a cancerous, disgusting rot to humankind.
It burns down everything it touches, but the rich can protect themselves against liberalism and the poor can't.
Here, you want more proof?
Here's a Statista article about where inequality, which states have the highest degree of inequality.
You'll notice something.
This is Statista research from September of 2021.
Puerto Rico at the top, run by Democrats.
New York, second, run by Democrats.
District of Columbia, third, run by Democrats.
Connecticut, fourth, run by Democrats.
And you get Louisiana, Mississippi, which have a Republican bent, even though one of them has a Democrat governor.
Then what do you have next?
California, run by Democrats.
All above the average for inequality in the United States, and inequality.
Kind of weird, New York and California, bastions of liberalism, have managed to have some of the highest degrees of inequality around the entire country.
Don't you find that weird?
Well, you shouldn't find it weird if you read this next story, it'll be in my newsletter today from Fox, that quote, New York and blue states rank as the least free as red states stand out in personal and economic freedom.
They did a freedom and liberty survey.
Who was at the bottom?
New York, Hawaii, California, and other blue states.
Who was at the top?
New Hampshire and Florida as the most free states.
Conveniently, both doing economically very well and have a good degree of equality while New York and California get crushed.
Usual suspects every single time.
Ladies and gentlemen, nothing they are telling you is true.
Liberalism is a lie bathed in another lie, wrapped in misinformation.
Please stop falling for it.
Please.
Okay, before I get to my next story, a big congratulations to Devin Nunes.
Soon-to-be former congressman.
What?
What happened?
Did he lose his seat?
No, he didn't lose his seat.
He would have won.
They're trying to redistrict him out, but he would have won pretty handily, I believe, even in his new district.
Post-millennial.
Breaking.
Devin Nunes to become CEO of Trump's media group.
Big congratulations.
Devin Nunes is the perfect man for the job.
Donald Trump's new media group with his new truth social.
His new competitor to Twitter, which will be launching soon.
And when it's ready, I encourage everyone to jump on board.
Devin Nunes is going to be the new CEO of that company.
Talk about a guy who gets it.
Very good pick.
Beautiful job.
Well done.
New CEO, soon to be Devin Nunes.
The only downside is we're going to lose his voice in Congress.
He was one of the good ones.
His legacy will be having cracked the spy gate case wide open and having predicted the growth of a parallel economy early on.
Seriously, read his book.
He talked about the need for a parallel economy a long time ago.
Congrats to Devin Nunes.
All right, let me get to my last sponsor, and then coming up, a poll which should scare the living daylights out of Democrats, and it explains perfectly, perfectly, soup to nuts, why people like Brian Stelter, the coffee boy at CNN and the media, are so panicked about the attacks on Kamala Harris by the media.
They're panicked because there's no backup plan!
She was the bullpen!
Bring the righty out!
She was the bullpen!
There's no bullpen!
This is why they're so paranoid.

Okay, so this poll should scare the living daylights out of every single Democrat out there.
Despite what I would still see as biased media coverage trying to defend the failed Biden-Garland-Harris administration and these useful idiots in the White House and Department of Justice.
Despite running a Praetorian Guard protection racket for Biden 24 hours a day.
Shockingly, Tip Insights just ran a poll.
Here's the headline.
Tip Paul Stunner.
Just 22% of Americans want Joe Biden to run for president again.
Again, my question here, who the hell are those 22%?
Here, it gets even worse.
This is from yesterday, December 6, 2021.
As mentioned, Biden was named by just 22% of those asked who they wanted to run in the next election cycle.
While only 12%, 12, that's one, two, mentioned Vice President Kamala Harris, whose abrasive style, lack of preparation, and revolving door personal changes have drawn criticism even from formerly friendly Democrats and the left-leaning media.
Now do you see what's going on?
Yeah, right, good point.
He says, where are the 12% who want Harris to run?
Folks, this is a disaster.
This is not trouble.
This is not big trouble.
This is an apocalyptic, cataclysmic disaster for the left.
They have no chance right now, with their current bullpen, Biden and Harris, of winning in the next election.
I shouldn't say no chance.
Anything can happen.
But they are in real, significant trouble right now.
Now do you understand why yesterday's segment with Brian Stelter, how the coffee boy at CNN, why he's so concerned about the media telling the truth about Biden and Harris?
You see why now?
Look, CNN put out a newsletter yesterday.
It's by Oliver Darcy.
He's the coffee boy for the coffee boy.
So Stelter gets coffee for Zucker, right?
Darcy gets coffee for Stelter.
So he's like the vice president coffee boy.
They put out a newsletter yesterday saying that the White House is now quietly trying to reshape economic coverage.
They had some conversation trying to get reporters to do propaganda instead of their jobs.
Why?
Because of what I told you yesterday.
They're starting to understand that the negative coverage of Kamala Harris is de facto negative coverage of the president.
Why?
Well, obviously because she works in the administration, but because she's their only candidate they have lined up for the next election.
They have no bullpen at all.
They have nothing.
So Stelter and them are trying to alter the coverage to make sure they can try to turn the tide to give Harris a kind of nicer path out there to run for 2024 by trying to say, hey, be a real shame if you destroyed Harris's chances, right?
You get it?
That's what's happening right now behind the scenes.
And showing you how character free the coffee boy and the sub coffee boy, the vice presidential coffee boy, Darcy and MR.
Folks, I have not covered the Chris Cuomo scandal because I candidly don't care.
One, it's all over the news.
I don't like to waste your time.
I get an hour, a little bit under an hour with you every day.
My goal was always, remember Joe, our original stated mission of the show, we wanted to have you be able to go to work, come home from work, or on a lunch break, get everything you needed to know we felt were important in that day and we think would be important to you.
Right.
So I don't waste your time.
Who cares about Chris Cuomo?
But I'll say this, and it may be an unpopular opinion, Chris Cuomo's a moron.
No, I mean it.
He's a moron.
Like, he's really, he's just a jerk.
He's not a nice guy.
He is a gamer, and I don't think he has an ounce of principle in him.
But I gotta tell you, it's pretty pathetic that Brian Stelter kissed this guy's butt at CNN while he was there, when Cuomo had the highest rated show they have on CNN, which isn't really saying much.
It's like being the tallest guy, you know, in a village of infants, right?
Look at me!
I got all these infants!
I'm 7 feet tall!
The infants are, I mean, seriously.
I'm sorry, I'm 5 feet tall!
A bunch of the infants, right?
Stelter, who kissed Chris Cuomo's ass the entire time he was at CNN, the minute things broke Brad for Cuomo, look what he does.
Look at his Daily Wire headline.
CNN's Brian Stelter dunks on fired Chris Cuomo, says he caused so many headaches and CNN staffers were very unhappy.
Listen, Joe, man.
Good buddy.
You and I go back a ways.
Guy code, man.
Right?
Don't you, you know what I'm talking about?
Like really bro?
I listen, I've had coworkers throughout my life, the NYPD and secret service who've gotten in trouble.
They do something wrong.
You're like, you know what?
I'll have to face the consequence.
You'll go out public and start piling on and bashing on them.
No, I mean, there's like a guy code.
You know what I mean?
Look at this punk, the coffee boy.
What a loser.
Meanwhile, keep in mind the coffee boy who's a laughingstock in the media.
Remember him making fun of Mark Levin because Mark Levin said there was a FISA warrant on Trump?
Never apologized for that.
Promoting Avenatti, the PP hoax, the Hunter Biden's laptop story was fake.
This a-hole, Stelter, is dunking on Cuomo?
What a character-free loser waits until he gets out the door.
What a piece of garbage.
Shows you exactly who the eunuch is at CNN.
CNN should put that loser on at 9 o'clock and watch him get annihilated in the ratings.
Tells you everything you need to know about Brian Stelter.
One last thing before I go.
Folks, I know we don't cover a lot of foreign policy on this show.
Keep your eyes on Ukraine.
The situation with the Russians on the eastern front of Ukraine amassing an invasion force now seems critical.
I bring it up because regardless of your position, if we should intervene or not, should Ukraine be admitted to NATO, regardless of your position on that, what Russia does will have very real impacts on the United States.
Very real impacts, because China's watching too.
I would expect not too long after the Olympics happen, that if Russia does invade Ukraine, that you'll likely see a Chinese invasion of Taiwan as well.
Why does that affect you?
Well, outside of just the geopolitical security ramifications, watch what'll happen to international markets.
Keep your eyes on it.
That Ukraine situation's getting critical.
And it shows you Biden made a lot of critical mistakes, especially with that Nord Stream 2 pipeline, which he should have never approved.
All right, folks, thanks again for tuning in.
