Biden Gives a Giant Middle Finger To America On His Way Out (Ep. 2380) - 12/02/2024
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Thank you.
What happened?
I had the whole show done.
Justin, did I not have the show done?
How much of the show?
The whole show!
The whole 60 minutes.
Not 61 minutes.
Like 60 minutes which added a minute.
I had no intentions of adding a minute.
For anyone.
It was 60 minutes.
You see this?
Done.
Look at the little notes in them.
Thank God papers have margins.
Because we had to add a whole freaking show.
Because clown, corrupt, goofball, communist, corruptocrat, Joe Biden...
Has to stick it to America one more time out the door by pardoning his son in one of the biggest scandals you're ever going to see.
By the way, is this guy not the greatest gift to Donald Trump's messaging machine?
He's a curse and a plague on America, Biden.
A wart on the caboose of this country, the entire Biden corrupt crime family.
However, what a gift to Donald Trump's messaging machine.
You guys stole classified documents.
Hey, bro, don't you got classified documents in your garage next to your Corvette?
And you weren't even the president.
Oh, yeah.
Sorry.
My bad.
These guys are a threat to democracy.
By the way, pardon my son, who's about to be sentenced for felony crimes he committed.
And by the way, don't look at anything he did while I was vice president.
What a freaking scam!

All right, fellas.
Let's go!
So, here we go.
Here's the Wall Street Journal commenting on the story, of course, last night.
Biden drops this bomb.
I had this show already done and ready to rock and roll.
And I see breaking news.
I'm watching this special about Wyatt Earp and the cowboy wars.
And my phone starts blowing up.
Dude, he did it.
I just want to say...
Self-praise stinks.
But in this case, I don't really care because what did we say?
Did we not say...
Was my headlight too high or something?
Oh, okay.
Did I not say, Justin, that Joe Biden was going to pardon his son?
Yes, I did is the answer.
I told you multiple times.
There is Zippo chance this guy was leaving office without pardoning his kid.
Do you guys remember why I said it, however?
This was definitely a Stygian Witches moment.
Because he says, Dad, no!
No!
What do you mean, Dad?
He's not the loving father.
And you guys remember the reason?
Come on, let's see how good you are.
You're part of the team.
You don't remember, do you?
Shameful.
Shameful!
Shameful!
And you're in college, too.
Your brain should be working at peak efficiency.
I'm 50 years old.
My gray matter is melting away by the second.
Dude, you're like 17. Get it together.
You should remember this.
You!
Actually, I'm looking in the wrong direction because I'm looking at the screen looking at you.
But the screen's looking at you because everything's backward.
The screen is looking at Justin.
The reason he pardoned his kid is not because he's a good dad.
A good dad doesn't let a drug-abusing, crack-using son go conduct international business when you're the freaking vice president of the United States, dipshits on the left.
I'm a dad.
I've got kids.
Can you imagine having a kid with a drug problem?
Going, I've got an idea.
I'm the vice president and I need...
Oh yeah.
Oh yes!
Yes!
Yes!
Dark mode, freaking D-Bots is on, okay?
Because a good dad does not send crack-addicted young man to go overseas and fleece money from a bunch of countries which you, ironically, have been put in charge of by the President of the United States at the time who happened to be Barack Obama.
He pardoned his son because he knew his son was getting ready to do this.
What are you going to tell me right now, Guy?
Describe for the Spotify people at home, at Apple, what you were talking about.
I'm flipping the middle finger!
Because that's what Joe Biden was about to get from his kid.
No!
Yes!
What's that?
Yes, I can read Guy's mind.
I know what Guy's going to say.
Guy is always, for Guy has this audio, I love our audio only audience, Guy is like super loyal to them.
Explain, here, there are two middle fingers up and they're both mine.
That's what Hunter Biden was about to do to pop Dukes.
Folks, I've always been honest about my sources.
Yes, Justin, the big guy was about to get the big woo-hoo!
Right up the kaboosarovski, okay?
I've always been honest about my sources, have I not?
Here, here's unself-praise, okay?
I didn't have the best sources on the Kamala Harris team.
I didn't.
I got damn good ones on the Biden team.
Oh, trust your boy, D-Botts.
I've been saying this forever.
Hunter Biden's lawyer has been quietly threatening Dad the entire time.
You give us a pardon or we're about to lay waste to you in a book, in testimony, whatever we gotta do.
And I'll bet they went down to vacation time over Thanksgiving and he was the Thanksgiving table.
Hey, Dad.
Hey, son.
Do you have any crack?
I don't have any crack here, but there may be some cocaine in the White House.
We might ask the Secret Service for that sample back.
Oh, my gosh.
You know, this might come up, by the way, Dad, if I write a book about drugs and Ukraine and stuff like that, and you know you were the vice president.
And here's Dad.
Oh, shit.
Maybe we should do something about that.
That was the conversation on Thanksgiving.
No one was giving thanks, but there was a lot of giving.
Giving this the double-barreled right up the caboose.
This guy was screwed.
It's true!
This guy was screwed!
There was a proctology exam coming for this guy.
This dude was screwed.
Joe Biden is in a lurch because the kid had nothing left to lose.
The trial was over.
He was getting ready to get sentenced.
Was he going to get jail time?
I don't know.
Maybe, maybe not.
Maybe a week, maybe a day, maybe nothing.
He did not want to be, Hunter Biden that is, a convicted felon.
He's like, get to the elements.
No, no!
I'm telling you, Joe Biden was screwed.
They were afraid of Biden getting roped in on a Farrah charge.
How many times I got to say this?
Foreign Agent Registration Act.
It is against the law to lobby on behalf of a foreign government in violation of U.S. law, i.e.
taking bribes and trading in national security information.
Here's what happened, folks.
Forget everything you've heard in the past.
I've written books on this sucker.
I have zero doubt in my mind based on the evidence that in my humble opinion, Joe Biden was giving his son classified information on the countries in his portfolio as vice president, which the family was using to then get money as a consultant on foreign deals so that they had inside info from the vice president.
I've seen the evidence.
It's gonna be hard to convince me otherwise.
And Joe Biden had almost as much, if not more, liability than Hunter.
Folks, of course they lied about it.
That's all the Bidens do.
The family's garbage.
They're just garbage people.
And by the way, you think Hunter Biden?
Hunter Biden, I'm telling you right now, isn't even the most messed up one in that family?
The next Secret Service director, I'm just telling you now, whoever it is, I'm going to be pushing you on this cocaine thing.
Because you guys know, you've narrowed it down.
You know who it is.
And you think Hunter Biden's...
He ain't even the worst one in this crew.
This family is gross.
They are nasty.
Here's Corrine Jean-Pierre lying over and over and over because that's all they do.
The worst freaking press secretary in the history of the United States.
She should only be remembered for this montage.
I think this is Maze Moore.
If it's not, we love Maze Moore.
M-A-Z-E-M-O-O-R-E. Follow him on X. That count is really awesome for video.
Here's Corrine Jean-Pierre.
This should be the only thing she's ever remembered for.
Check this out.
Presidential perspective, is there any possibility that the president would end up pardoning his son?
No.
The President would not pardon or commute sentences for his son, Hunter.
I just want to make sure that that is not going to change over the next six months.
The President's saying he would not...
It's still a no.
It's still a no.
It will always be a no.
It's still a no.
It will be a no.
It is a no.
And I don't have anything else to add.
Will he pardon his son?
No.
His son, Hunter, is also up for being sentenced next month.
Does the President have any intention of pardoning him?
We've been asked that question multiple times.
Our answer stands, which is no.
President Biden says that he's not going to pardon his son, Hunter.
Is he going to ask Donald Trump to do that?
I don't have anything else to share about that.
I'm not going to go down a rabbit hole on this.
I've been very clear.
The president's been very clear when we've been asked this question.
Oh, she should never be remembered for anything else.
That was at Tim Runs His Mouth on X, by the way, not Maze.
But we have a lot of stuff for Maze.
So they're all good.
Make sure you follow these accounts.
They're great for video.
Folks, the woman is a disgrace to the podium.
Now, you may be saying, well, Dan, she was lied to by Joe Biden.
Folks, if this woman isn't smart enough to realize she's getting smoked up, then how is she smart enough to represent the United States?
Remember, she's paid by the taxpayers working in a taxpayer-funded building to advance the message of the President of the United States, not the President of the Democrat Party.
The woman's a disgrace.
If Corrine Jean-Pierre had any human dignity at all, folks in the chat, did we break the chat already?
What should she do today?
She should resign today.
Today.
There is zero doubt she should resign today and preserve some shred of human dignity.
Resign today!
Hey.
Resign today.
Show America.
Please.
Can we get the socks up again?
Because this woman sucks so bad.
Like, just show America.
You have some shred of backbone.
And today, say, I refuse.
I'm not doing that again.
Of course, the hack, goon, disgusting, filthy enemies of freedom and liberty, the modern, disgusting, filthy liberal media have to make this story about what?
What happens every time there is a Democrat scandal the media can't explain away?
The story becomes a Republican's pounce story every single time.
What's a Republican's pounce story?
Because the media cannot explain away Democrat, disgusting, filthy, communist, authoritarian, filth-bag, grotesquity behavior, they make the story about not the scandal, but the Republican reaction to it.
Sometimes they actually write, Republicans pounce.
He's like, I got an example.
No.
Yes, we do.
Politico.
Republicans pounce on Biden pardoning his son Hunter.
Notice, the story isn't about what the Democrats did, these scumbags.
The story's about the Republican reaction.
This is who Bullshitico is.
This is why nobody takes these idiots seriously.
It's why, according to that Pew survey or whatever it was, Gallup, 31% of Americans only trust the mainstream media, meaning 7 out of 10 think you guys suck.
It's because you do suck.
Here's at the tone as Tony Kinnan, a great tweet.
Here are just some of the Biden lies that the media is covered for every single time because they're disgusting filth, just like the garbage Biden family.
Filth.
It's transitory inflation.
Nope.
Afghanistan was a success.
Really?
The border is secure.
That's a good one.
Robert, her lie.
Biden is just fine.
Remember special counsel?
Sure.
Remember the videos of Biden disappearing off camera?
Oh, those are cheap fakes.
They weren't.
Biden had jet lag.
No, he's got a cognitive disorder.
Biden had a cold.
No, he's got a cognitive disorder.
Biden isn't going to be replaced.
He was.
Biden isn't going to pardon Hunter.
He did.
By the way, the list goes on and on.
People have responded to this tweet, and you should retweet it.
I did.
It's a good one.
And people have added to a series of other Biden lies.
He traveled on the Tibetan plateau with Xi Jinping.
He grew up in the Puerto Rican, black, the Jewish community, the Greek community, the Italian community.
He attended a church on Sunday, the temple on Saturday.
Then he went to...
Islamic.
He met with the imam.
He was a civil rights activist.
He finished first in his class.
He was the outstanding student.
He was a letterman.
The guy was Jerry Rice in the NFL before Jerry Rice.
This guy's full of shit, man.
He's full of shit.
Oh, he's leaving.
What's the big deal?
It is a big deal.
It is a big deal.
Because the story's not about disgusting, filthy Biden and his filthy, disgusting family.
You know what the story's about?
The media cover-up of this freaking crime family that's allowed them for decades to give you the double-barreled middle finger, the taxpayer.
You were paying these idiots.
Yeah, the Biden family.
You were getting rich off these life losers.
Now, I do want to throw this curveball in there.
The Biden family is not out of the woods yet.
There's zero question Hunter Biden is going to get hauled in front of Congress at some point.
And now, the fact that he has been pardoned in one of the most, if not the most expansive pardon in modern American history.
For crimes, federal crimes, remember, you can't pardon for state crimes.
So if Hunter Biden were to get charged by a state, there's absolutely nothing Biden can do.
There's nothing Trump could do either.
You can only pardon for federal crimes.
Governors, but for federal crimes, that's it.
The president, you know that.
I'm sorry.
I don't mean to sound like an asshole here, but you guys get that.
Here's the problem they have.
Now that he can't possibly incriminate himself for federal crimes that he has been pardoned on, if he's hauled in front of Congress, ladies and gentlemen, they got a legit case here to compel testimony.
Now, I have zero doubt Hunter Biden's going to give them the middle finger and say, I'm not saying nothing about nothing, but then they should look at investigating him for ignoring this congressional subpoena.
He's going to say, I'm not showing up.
And here's another problem.
If he doesn't tell the truth and decides to testify, and he lies, he can still be charged with perjury.
Here's a hat tip, Tom Elliott over at Gravian, great site.
Here is a compilation, by the way, I told you this was a media story, of the media filth and garbage that have protected this crime family at your expense for decades now, pretending these people were above it, Oh, look how gregarious and morally upstanding Joe Biden is.
He's not going to pardon his son.
Go back and look at my show.
I am not wasting your freaking time.
I told you there is zero chance Hunter Biden doesn't get a pardon because they've got to protect dad no matter what.
And now it's happened.
You listen to these media edits.
They're wrong again.
Their batting average is zero.
We're hitting a thousand.
Check this out.
Presidential promise to put the law before a family.
I said I abide by the jury decision.
I will do that and I will not pardon him.
Letting the world know that he will not wipe away the decision of 12 of his son's peers was asked directly and he has said he wouldn't pardon his son if he gets convicted.
Let's wait and see what happens if he loses.
Yeah, but I mean, but he said it.
He's going to get pardoned by his dad.
There's no question about that.
The president has ruled out pardoning his son.
Major commitment from the president accepting the outcome of the trial and also pledging not to pardon his son.
The challenge for him is really to continue to live up to his values when it was really personal and he did that today.
It seems like a pretty normal, straightforward answer, but it takes new weight when we see what Trump is saying about the outcome of his trial.
We're hearing from other Republicans who say they don't accept the jury's verdict here in New York.
The contrast is profound.
To sit there and say, well, I'm not going to intervene in the legal process, and I wouldn't pardon my son.
One side, Democrats and Joe Biden protecting the justice system, and on the other, Republicans and Trump protecting Trump.
Oh my gosh, how much more can you liberal idiots take?
Justin's still in school.
Justin's like 17, okay?
He's entering his freshman year in college, Justin.
If Justin goes to...
Poor guy.
Justin's like 25 or something.
Imagine going to a class, a biology class, where every single thing the professor tells you is wrong.
Would you waste your money on the class?
Would you waste your money on the class?
Maybe money, but definitely money.
Maybe if they described mammals as lizards, you would be like, I'm out of here.
Everything these idiots tell you is wrong.
Batting average on our show?
1,000.
Told you they were going to pardon this guy.
That's so correct.
Justin's like, you've already hit a home run.
They haven't even pitched a freaking ball!
I'm not wasting your time.
I love you guys too much.
Hey, the world's on edge right now.
This year we've seen the media stoke animosity, a point of violence, the weaponization of our legal system, and political instability.

Okay, back to the show.
All the right people are really pissed off about this whole thing, by the way.
With Kash Patel coming up, including Andy Weissman and others.
But before we're done, I just want to play for you a clip again of how these people are always wrong on everything.
If you are listening to Andrew McCabe, Jim Comey, Andrew Weissman, Chuck Todd, Brian Stelter, Rachel Maddow, Natasha Bertrand, all of these losers...
Who have been on the wrong side of everything.
The laptop.
The intel officials.
Spygate.
Collusion.
The pardon.
Why do you keep listening to these idiots?
Here's Andrew Weissman, another human filth pile, who used to work at the DOJ and was knee deep in the spying scandal on Donald Trump and the collusion hoax.
Here he is, vouching for Biden.
Oh, look how great he is.
He's not going to pardon his son.
These guys are a gift to us.
Because all we got to do is play their own stupidity back for them.
Check this out.
What is before us is a president who is living the rule of law.
He is living it in the most personal way.
He is not pardoning his son, which he could do.
These are federal charges.
He is not doing that.
He is not doing it because he is living what it means to have a rule of law in this country.
That was our friend, Maze.
Listen, I need your help.
Spit it out, man.
I don't even know what to tell you.
How many times are we going to have this conversation?
How is it, if you were a dumbass liberal, how are you still watching these morons?
Are they going to get anything right, like ever, about anything?
Folks in the chat, one thing.
Tell me one major story in the Trump era from 2015 on.
Tell me one major story the mainstream media got right.
Please, I'll wait.
Go ahead.
Fire away in the chat.
I'm looking forward to it.
You can't.
Because there isn't one.
Why are you wasting your time?
I love it.
The Washington Post reaches out to me.
Dan, how is your...
I'm not kidding.
Like, how is your show so big?
Is this a blind spot for us?
How are you beating these mainstream media outlets?
Because we tell the truth!
Because these dipshits can't get anything right!
Man, I... It's frustrating.
This is actually good news, though, because it gives us more material when Kash Patel, John Ratcliffe, and Tulsi Gabbard get there in the intelligence, law enforcement community, FBI, DNI, CIA. When they get in there, I want all these books opened up.
Now, you may be saying right now the paper shredders are working overtime at the FBI and elsewhere.
Folks, you're probably right.
You're probably correct.
They are probably desperately trying to hide bodies right now.
They're doing the Joe Pesci, Bobby De Niro goodfellas, trying to hide Billy Bats and bury him in the woods.
I have zero doubt that's happening.
But they're not going to be able to get rid of all of it because the email trial, I'm sure people have saved stuff.
I'm sure of it.
You know, throw up the true social post.
This came out, some great news.
Donald Trump's proud to announce Kash Patel will serve as the next director of the FBI. Now, keep in mind, Christopher Wray's term runs till 2027. It's a 10-year term.
He is the current train wreck of an FBI director in there right now.
So one of two things has to happen.
Christopher Wray has to resign, which he said he's not going to, or he has to be fired, which I assume Donald Trump is going to do, and I hope day one.
Christopher Wray is a complete, absolute disaster and a train wreck.
I wanted Cash Patel.
He's going to be fantastic.
I've known Cash for a long time.
I know he knows where the bodies are buried, and you would know absolutely nothing about Spygate or collusion if it wasn't for what he and Devin Nunes and the rest of that team did.
Now, what do I always say?
Measure the impact of a political decision.
In other words, how effective your tactics are by the response of your enemy.
If you hear nothing from the Democrats, they generally don't feel threatened.
The fact that they lost over Kash Patel this weekend, I mean lost it.
I could play clips all day.
Over Kash Patel going to run the FBI. Tells you everything you need to know.
And imagine CNN now.
CNN, which has been wrong on everything.
The laptop, the pardon, Spygate, collusion.
Everything.
Everything.
You're CNN. You've been on the wrong side of everything.
You bring on Andrew McCabe.
A disgusting piece of human garbage who was the acting director and deputy director of the FBI while this entire targeting scandal and Donald Trump went on.
He's involved in this entire thing from top to bottom, Andrew McCabe.
He has had all kinds of legal issues because of it.
And you bring this idiot on to comment on Kash Patel reforming the FBI. This segment actually happened.
Check this out.
Yeah, McCabe.
Andrew, I just want to start first with you and just get your reaction to this news tonight.
Yeah, well, it's a terrible development for the men and women of the FBI and also for the nation that depends on a highly functioning, professional, independent Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The fact that Kash Patel is profoundly unqualified for this job is not even like a matter for debate.
So I think what we should really be thinking about right now is what does this signal in terms of Donald Trump's intent for the FBI? This guy is human garbage, Andrew McCabe.
You understand this guy was at the top ranks of the FBI and was knee-deep in the whole collusion hoax and spying scandal?
They actually have this guy on as a subject matter expert.
Folks in the chat, what's McCabe afraid of?
Fire away.
Fire away.
McCabe, yes.
Beauty on duty in the chat.
McCabe is terrified.
You're damn right.
McCabe and McCash is unqualified?
Prosecutor?
Department of Defense high-ranking official?
Guys knee-deep in justice issues?
Worked on the congressional side?
You know what Andy McCabe's qualifications are?
His wife is a doctor.
Andrew McCabe, according to a high-ranking source of mine, was never, ever a good quality FBI agent.
My source tells me that he was, quote, a briefer.
That all he was good at was getting up in front of the room and talking a lot of smack.
This guy, Andrew McCabe, is commenting on the qualifications of Kash Patel?
You have got to be kidding me.
Why is he freaking out about Kash Patel?
Folks, you got to see this clip coming up next.
And by the way, everyone's saying Kash is going to have a tough time getting through the Senate.
Listen, guys in the Senate and the Republican side, Put your egos aside.
This is not a threat.
I'm not here to threaten anybody.
I'm a political commentator advancing a political cause.
So sit down and stop the whining, okay?
To the rhinos in the Senate, the good guys, we love you, right?
To the rhinos in the Senate, we don't want to be told who to go.
No one's telling you anything.
I have an audience on a political show and it's the biggest one out there.
And I'm telling you right now, it's a republic.
You guys are supposed to represent us.
You've already shit-canned Matt Gaetz.
You guys mess with this guy and send it confirmation.
I'm telling you right now, between my show, Elon Musk, and the Twitter warriors out there, I'm telling you right now, there will be political, political ramifications.
You can ignore us all you want.
Oh, we don't need you guys.
No, you do need us.
And we need you too.
And you better come through for cash.
There is zero reason not to confirm him lickety-split once Christopher Wray is gone.
I'll play for you a clip coming up next of why Andrew McCabe and deep staters are freaking out about cash going and opening up the books at the FBI. Nothing delivers comfort and joy quite like the unrivaled quality and taste of Omaha Steaks.

Thank you, Jason.
Here is why they are afraid of Kash Patel.
Kash did stints at the Department of Defense and in the director, the DNI, the Directorate of National Intelligence Office.
And he went in there and Kash said, what the hell do you guys do in here besides causing trouble for everyday Americans?
I'm not really sure what's going on over here.
They don't like that.
Follow the money, folks.
This is about jobs.
This is about billets.
And this is about money.
And nobody wants their job going away.
Don't make this overcomplicated.
And Kash Patel knows there's a lot of waste in here.
Check this out.
Then we need to decrease what I call government creep with personnel.
The FBI's footprint has gotten so freaking big.
And the biggest problem the FBI has had has come out of its Intel shops.
I'd break that component out of it.
I'd shut down the FBI Hoover building.
On day one and reopening the next day as a museum of the deep state.
And I take the 7,000 employees that work in that building and send them across America to chase down criminals.
Go be cops.
You're cops.
Go be cops.
Go chase down murderers and rapists and drug dealers and violent offenders.
What do you need 7,000 people there for?
Same thing with DOJ. What are all these people doing here?
Looking for the next government promotion, looking for their next fancy government title, looking for their parachute out of government.
So while you're bringing in the right people, you also have to shrink government.
So a massive government reform.
Yeah.
And you got to work with Congress to eliminate the billets.
This is one of the things we did when I was deputy DNI. We got to DNI and I was like, okay, what do all these people do?
We've got the CIA, so why do I have analysts doing the CIA's job here?
Why do I have a floor of them?
Like, give me a good answer.
I don't know everything.
I don't know a lot.
But if you can give me an answer that satisfies their existence, I'm all in.
Well, we just have our own people.
Okay, well, now we don't.
We went to Congress and zeroed out a bunch of billets, and they hated us for it.
Why?
Why would Congress hate you for that?
Not Congress, the public.
Congress is like, great, you saved us money.
You're the only agency that returned money this year, because we didn't spend our entire budget.
We were literally funding seats with no humans in them.
Folks, that is a hugely important clip.
He addressed the reason I didn't focus on the FBI's mission creep into intelligence gathering on American citizens, which he indicates the problem is because I covered that last week with cash.
So I don't want to redo that.
But I wanted to play the whole clip in context so I can't be accused of falsely editing it.
That leads into the second part where he's implying, and I believe he's right, that funding these extra seats of people who are just redundant where we have other people doing the exact same thing gives them a whole bunch of spare time to do things like target American citizens and their intelligence work when they should be targeting terrorists.
That is a hugely important clip.
This guy absolutely gets it.
I am not telling you this because I've known him for a while.
We don't have coffee every weekend.
I know him as well as I know anyone else.
I'm telling you this because early on when the Spygate thing was going on, he's one of the guys who was like, dude, you're on to something.
Keep going.
We see it too.
He knew and he put it out.
We were putting it out as it was coming in.
Now, this guy, Mike Waller, I'm about to play.
I'm playing this clip for a reason.
This is one of those congressman guys who's like a really establishment guy.
He's in a swingy district.
Tries not to say anything controversial.
I'm putting this out there because there's this Twitter thing going on.
Oh, Cash is going to have confirmation problems.
He better not.
And I don't know where they're getting that from.
Again, this guy's a pretty establishment guy, this Republican congressman.
I'm only playing it because he seems pretty confident that cash should be okay, and he fights back on, I think it's CNN. Is it CNN? Yeah, CNN. He fights back.
If this guy's saying this, you can be reasonably confident that the establishment people are kind of like, hey, this isn't worth the fight.
Let's get him to it.
We'll see what happens.
And our eyeballs are on it.
But this is an important clip to see what the other side of our movement's doing.
We have our side and then the establishment side.
We got to be a step ahead of them.
Watch this.
Donald Trump campaigned on reforming the FBI and the Department of Justice.
So I don't know why any of this is, frankly, surprising to people.
President Trump has nominated in Kash Patel, someone who served as chief of staff at the Department of Defense, someone who served as deputy director of the NSI, someone who served as a senior staffer on the House Intelligence Committee.
He was a federal prosecutor under the Obama administration.
And so certainly has a requisite experience for this role.
I think there's no question President Trump made very clear that the Department of Justice and the FBI would be reformed if he was elected to a second term.
And I think, obviously, with the selection of Pam Bondi and Kash Patel, that's exactly what he's going to do.
It's a hugely important clip.
I can't emphasize this enough.
This guy's not my bag of donuts.
He's definitely not a MAGA guy or a Tea Party guy or a libertarian guy or a conservative guy.
He's always been kind of a centrist establishment, swampy guy on stuff.
But I put it out there because if he's saying that, he's not saying it by accident.
He's now on the record on CNN. How on the record?
We're playing it on our show on freaking Monday.
Now it's part of the record.
It's not going to go away.
So he must know something.
But it's on us to keep the squeeze on.
We're not threatening anybody.
I love these dissenters.
Oh my gosh, we want to do our own thing.
It's not about you doing your own thing.
It's about you exercising the will of the people in a representative democracy.
You screwed us already on the Gates thing.
We don't want Gates.
Okay, you took your scalp.
Fine.
It's not fine with me, but there's not much we can do about it now.
He dropped out.
By the way, we're not going to forget what happened with that, especially with the Utah guy.
But it's time to get these people through.
Enough bullshit, man.
Here's another reason they're freaking out about Cash.
Have you seen this clip?
By the way, that was from the Sean Ryan show before with Cash.
This is from the Tim Pool show.
Proper credit here.
Cash was on with Tim Pool a while ago.
I want you to listen to this clip, and I'm going to play the clip he's talking about afterwards of Ted Cruz.
Cash knows that there was something up with January 6th and something big.
The federal footprint on the January 6th insurrection, with air quotes, right, is one of the biggest scandals in American history.
Between what happened at the Capitol and the pipe bomb incident at the DNC, Cash absolutely knows something's up.
I want you to listen to him on Tim Pool, and I'm going to play the clip he's talking about afterwards.
This is another reason they're freaked out.
Watch this.
There's a video showing a guy with an earpiece pulling people into the building.
You combine that with the evidence of Ray Epps and it looks like you have a preponderance of evidence suggesting there may have been federal law enforcement involved in making that thing happen.
I'll get you beyond a reasonable doubt.
Two pieces of information.
Ray Epps was on FBI's most wanted list one day and the next day he was off of the FBI's most wanted list.
There are only two ways that happens.
You die.
Or your informant.
Put that aside.
Under congressional testimony, Jill Sanborn, who I used to work with, the head of the FBI Counterintelligence Division, in charge of all these investigations, testified under oath when Senator Cruz asked her, flat out, were there federal agents involved with January 6th?
And she said, quote, Senator, I can't answer that at this time.
If the answer was definitively no, having been a DOJ FBI guy myself, she would have gone there and said, nope, absolutely not.
The reason she said I can't answer that is because of the same stonewalling they gave us during Restorgate with Christopher Steele, Halper, and everybody else.
It's the same narrative, and I'm telling you they were there.
So you're saying that she said I can't answer that because the answer is yes, and that would compromise whatever their operation was.
Exactly.
I have always given you the straight scoop, okay?
When I get information and a source says you can run with it, you can't keep sources and a body of them and do investigative reporting.
If a source says, don't say anything yet, I'm not ready to put it out, and you go on the air and you basically screw the source over.
Because...
Sorry to...
Justin, if this sounds dumb, I'm just stopping.
Here's how this works.
Sources are working other sources.
So if you go out and put out information when a source says, don't say anything yet, here's what I'm working on, then the source who got the information from the source, the original source says, how did that shit get out on the Dan Bongino show?
You have to put it out when the guy or the woman tells you, I have a data set, it's good to go.
Do you get what I'm saying?
I've always disclosed to you a full data set in context.
I'm telling you the feds are knee deep in January 6th and the pipe bombing incident.
Let me tell you again before I played a Ted Cruz clip.
A Fed friend of mine who is an actual federal agent, okay, was there.
He is one of the good guys because he's been feeding me information for a really long time, including pictures and everything else.
He was there on January 6th with the whole pipe bombing insurrection incident and he has told me with actual photos that there were a boatload of Feds there.
So why won't they answer the question?
Because they don't want you to know who they are.
Because once you find out who they are, you're going to find out who was working with who.
And by the way, don't assume everybody was an FBI agent.
There were agents there, no doubt, on January 6th.
Zero doubt.
And a good handful or more of them.
There were a lot.
Who were the assets?
Who was working with the federal agents?
They weren't agents themselves, but were working with the FBI. That's the question.
That's the question I don't have the full data set on yet.
He was also there when the pipe bomb thing happened and days later they told him to stand down, quote, mysteriously.
This is bullshit and everybody knows it and Cash knows it too.
Here's Ted Cruz talking to the FBI official and watch how freaky deaky douchey gets when he asks a simple question.
How many federal agents were at the scene?
Not a hard question to answer.
Check this out.
How many FBI agents or confidential informants actively participated in the events of January 6th?
Sir, I'm sure you can appreciate that I can't go into the specifics of sources and methods.
Did any FBI agents or confidential informants actively participate in the events of January 6th?
Yes or no?
Sir, I can't answer that.
Did any FBI agents or confidential informants commit crimes of violence on January 6th?
I can't answer that, sir.
Did any FBI agents or FBI informants actively encourage and incite crimes of violence on January 6th?
Sir, I can't answer that.
Okay, it's not Guy and them screwing up the audio.
That's the lady getting feedback on her own system.
She's at FBI headquarters.
Why can't you answer it?
I just want to be clear.
The FBI and the deep state DOJ that's been trying to sabotage us, the MAGA movement, and Donald Trump since 2015 That same FBI has told us that this insurrection was one of the worst instances of civil disturbance since the Civil War, and yet you can't say to us, hey, listen, we had this many feds there and they saw them.
Why not?
If they witnessed crimes...
Folks, listen, I worked as a 1811, GS 1811, for years working criminal cases in the government.
You're obligated in court at some point...
Not to disclose the identity, but the information at least about what a CI or someone else said.
You can't just say, hey, someone told us something.
You have to show that the CI, the confidential informant, or CHS, confidential human source, has been used before, given reliable information, or has been used the first time and the information they gave you been verified.
You can't just say, hey, these people did some stuff.
This is a huge scam.
This entire January 6th narrative you've been told is absolute bullshit.
The whole thing.
It's a political ploy to keep the threat to democracy narrative alive because it's all they have to distract you.
And now you see the real threat to democracy with this ridiculous pardon he lied about forever doesn't come from us.
It comes from them.
The left, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the Obama crew.
Folks, we have got to break up this deep state cartel or we are never going to recover as a country.
These people have been driving this country into the ground for decades now.
Intel officials, government bureaucrats, elected officials, NGOs, lobbyists, insiders, billionaires.
I'm not knocking them for their capitalist endeavors.
I'm talking about the Soros types that use their money to give you the double-barrel middle finger and screw this country over.
How much more evidence can you possibly need than this thing?
Hat tip, Jerry Dunley, if you put this tweet up.
You know General Michael Hayden?
Again, human garbage.
He's the former CIA director.
General Hayden, you know this guy?
You know what he also signed?
Yeah.
Quote, the bullshit Hunter Biden laptop letter.
Look what this guy shares.
This guy was running the CIA. He shares this tweet.
The White's House...
The White House.
Implying some type of racial motive for Trump appointing Kash Patel, who we all know is very white, Kash Patel.
Do you know that, Justin?
Very white, Kash Patel.
He's a white...
What's the category?
White Hispanic?
Is he a white Indian man?
Is that how that works?
When you want to characterize people according to your little racial identity politics shitty boxes you put together?
White adjacent.
Thank you, Guy.
I forgot the term.
Cash is definitely white adjacent.
He's a sympathizer, Justin.
Sympathizer.
This guy was the director of the CIA. Tell me again the deep state isn't real.
And folks, this is an article in the newsletter today.
This is super important by the great Miranda Devine.
I need you to pay attention to this piece.
Bongino.com slash newsletter.
The newsletter's free.
You need to read this piece.
Because if you want to understand what happened and what's going on with the Biden crime family, and what I told you in the beginning to tie the show together, they are not protecting Hunter Biden.
The Biden crime family and the pardons.
I promise you.
They are protecting Joe and Obama.
They are protecting Joe and Obama.
Why do you think Joe Biden's pardon went back to 2014?
Who was the vice president and president in 2014?
Yes.
Joe Biden and Barack Obama.
Obama appoints Joe Biden as the point man on Ukraine.
All of a sudden sensitive information starts making its way through the Biden crime family to the Ukrainians while money makes its way from the Ukrainians to the Biden crime family.
You think it's a coincidence?
Do you remember this story in the New York Post about the FBI? Remember the informant they had who said, hey, listen, there's money going to the Biden crime family and the informant found himself locked up?
Here's the story.
Quote, the FBI and DOJ's politically motivated persecution of a former informant, all to protect the Bidens.
Miranda Devine notes, one of the most disturbing scandals of the Hunter Biden saga is the imprisonment without trial of a former FBI informant, remember the names folks, Alexander Smirnoff.
They note that he once told his FBI handler, this guy was a paid source, He told his FBI handler about Ukrainian claims of a $10 million bribe to the Bidens.
Money, Ukraine, Bidens.
And has been languishing in prison for nine months on charges he lied to the FBI. I believe fake charges.
Last week, oh this is coincidental, federal prosecutors slapped new tax evasion charges on Smirnoff.
Which suggests they know their original indictment is too weak for a jury to convict him when he faces trial beginning on January 8th.
President Trump, or soon to be President Trump, President-elect Trump right now, I am begging you as a friend, man, you need to pardon this guy.
And we need to get everything from this guy Smirnoff.
Was his information about the 10 million bribe accurate or was it hearsay from someone else?
I don't know.
But there's only one way to find out.
And that's to bust him out of prison on this fake charge with a pardon and get this guy to talk.
Because I'm telling you, the Bidens are doing everything they can right now to brush over their footprints so no one can track them through the woods.
Folks, if we can't crack up this deep state and start putting people in jail for crimes, I'm not suggesting we make them up like the Biden team, then our whole movement is freaking useless.
This deep state cartel has had their boots on our neck forever, folks.
Listen to me here.
This is important.
I'm going to play this next clip for you from Rogan's show in a second that you need to hear too.
This deep state cartel has been us over for too long now.
We have two years to fix this.
Two years.
No, Dan, we have four.
No, we don't.
We actually have closer to a year.
Because what happens after the first year is the senators...
A third of the class and the entire House of Representatives is again up for election in the midterms in two years.
The deuce.
When do they start campaigning?
A year from now and that's all they care about.
We have a year to get this done.
It is not a lot of time, but it's doable.
There's no time for BS. We have got to break this thing up or we are never going to escape from this boot on our neck.
You can vote your way into socialism, but you sure as hell can't vote your way out.
We have one year.
Mark Andreessen was on Joe Rogan's show.
Andreessen dropped some absolute bombshells, folks.
It was one of the most amazing interviews I've heard in a long time.
And he was talking about this phenomenon.
This is why I started ParallelEconomy.com, if you're interested.
It's an alternative to Stripe.
But this is one of the reasons I did it.
Folks, debanking and the war on the financial system.
By the way, this is why lefties hate Bitcoin and can't stand it, because they want to make sure everything is run by the government so the government can use the financial system, just like Biden uses the DOJ as a weapon against you.
The government may have a constitutional limit on what they can do to limit your free speech.
But they worked their way around it by using the financial system and social media to do the dirty work for them.
Listen to this clip that went viral by Andreessen talking about debanking.
Was this you?
Because I know a lot of friends this happened to.
Check this out.
Debanking is when you as either a person or your company are literally kicked out of the banking system.
Like they did to Kanye.
Exactly, like they did to Kanye.
My partner Ben's father has been debanked.
Really?
We had an employee.
For what?
For having the wrong politics.
For saying unacceptable things.
Under current banking regulations, okay, here's a great thing.
Under current banking regulations, after all the reforms of the last 20 years, there's now a category called a politically exposed person, PEP. And if you are a PEP, you are required by financial regulators to kick them out of your bank.
What?
But what if you're politically on the left?
That's fine.
No.
Because they're not politically exposed.
So no one on the left gets debanked?
I have not heard of a single instance of anybody on the left getting debanked.
Financial warfare.
Financial warfare against American citizens.
The government has a cannot.
They've done it.
I get it.
I understand they have done it.
But they are not supposed to do it.
The Constitution is supposed to protect your right to a political opinion free of government interference.
So what the scum in the deep state have done is they've deputized social media companies and the banking system to do the speech suppression for them.
Folks, we've got a year to clean this mess up.
And one of the first things that should be done is a law protecting the financial system against this kind of government de facto deputized interference in our lives.
We have one year.
And that's why they're freaking out about Kash Patel.
