Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco Benghazi.

Trump's one big ugly bill.
If it ever would be implemented into law, hospitals will close, nursing homes will shut down and people will literally die.
He was still able to keep this sucker on the tracks?
Then give me a mentally deficient Joe Biden any given day over Donald Trump.

Sean Hannity.
More behind the scenes information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
All right, thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
Write down our toll-free telephone number.
It's 800-941 Sean if you want to be a part of the program.
Um, is anybody in the radical left extreme leftist, you know, so-called state-run legacy media mob gonna challenge uh the speaker of the house, Hakeem Jeffries, over the comment that has been made by his nephew threatening to unmask ice agents.
Every single one will be identified.
Anyways, the uh he's now uh House Minority Leader and nephew to infamous, you know, radical uh, frankly, I think uh racist Leonard Jeffries, Hakeem Jeffries, is seemingly now uh threatening to unmask ICE agents.
And and I need to point this out the threats against ICE agents have gone up, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
Assault on ICE agents has jumped 413 percent.
And we have entire networks we are leading that we are learning, our are organized that they cannot possibly uh they cannot possibly stop what is happening here because the the it's not illegal to dox these agents.
And so, anyway, the House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is you know now threatening to unmask immigration customs enforcement agents, saying Democrats will expose their identities no matter what it takes.
Uh and this is the speaker himself, it's not he's the nephew of Leonard Jeffries.
I said it the wrong way, many of whom work to undercover undercover operations, saying the Democrats will expose their identities no matter what it takes.
During a press conference this week, Jeffries claims that Democrats would seek out the identities of ICE agents who work to enforce federal immigration law by locating, arresting, and deporting illegal aliens, often violent convicted criminals.
Quote, every single ICE agent who is engaged in this aggressive overreach who are trying to hide their identities from the American people will be unsuccessful in doing that.
Now remember, this is now your radical lies Democratic Party.
This is the one where last week AOC was saying that we should eliminate ICE.
This is Dan Goldman.
They didn't have any problem with the rioters in the summer of 2020, you know, wearing masks as they were uh, let's see, involved in in rioting and looting and billions of dollars in property damage and two dozen dead Americans and thousands of injured cops.
It's perfectly okay to cover your face then.
Anyway, quote, this is America, not the Soviet Union.
We're not behind an iron curtain.
This is not the 1930s.
Every single one of them, no matter what it takes, no matter how long it takes, will of course be identified.
That is, in fact, the law.
We're gonna make sure the American people have the transparency necessary.
This is what we have been telling you.
The Senate had an opportunity to stand up for women's rights, and they instead chose Democrats to champion the rights of men to play women's sports.
They would not stand for women's sports.
This is the party now of, you know, that supports the Delbrego Garcia types.
And this is the party that is now threatening ICE agents.
You know, this is the party of Chuck Schumer.
You know, Neil Gorsuch, you know, and and and Justice Kavanaugh, you will pay the price, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
They didn't say anything when Supreme Court justices homes were doxed.
We're now talking about the the House minority leader, the guy that would love to be speaker one day, has now bought into the radicalism, putting the rights of illegals over the safety of you and your family.
Now, how bad is it?
U.S. immigration and customs enforcement, ICE agents in Philly arrested a Russian national accused of being a member of Al Qaeda.
We've been warning you.
We'll get into this with my interview with Dan Bangino later in the program today.
We have known terrorists, we have Iranian known Iranian assassination squads in the country.
We have murderers, rapists.
We have cartel members, gang members, drug dealers that were let in, and Democrats all lied and said the border was closed and secure, and they never they never once opened their mouths to say close the border, secure the border, vet people that come into our country, enforce the laws of the land, just the opposite.
You know, all these sanctuary cities and and towns in the country and states, they're all democratic areas.
Anyway, in this case of this Russian national accused of being a member of Al Qaeda, 39 years old, detained May 23rd, uh, born in Tajikan, a fugitive, wanted overseas, according to ICE.
They said the man was first detained in San Yasidro Point of Entry in California, March 23 and charged as an inadmissible alien under the Immigration and Nationality Act because he didn't have an immigrant visa.
He was served a notice to appear before an immigration judge and then paroled into the U.S., which was pretty much the status quo.
Let everybody in and we'll hope they show up for their court date, and nobody ever shows up for their court date.
That puts every one of you and your families lives in jeopardy.
Why during the campaign did they scroll the names of Americans that have been murdered and raped and victims of violent crime?
You know, Donald Trump reached out to the many of these families.
Joe Biden did no such thing.
You know, and and Kamala Harris wanted taxpayer dollars being spent on sex change Operations for illegal immigrants.
And Tim Walls wanted taxpayer funded college education by illegal immigrants.
Is it any wonder assaults on ICE agents have jumped a whopping 413%?
Tom Holman put it on his ex account, a DHS post, a four hundred and thirteen percent increase in assaults.
Well, what's going to happen as this doxing now has gone mainstream with now the House Minority Leader?
You know, basically saying he will unmask and dox and identify ICE agents and put their lives in jeopardy.
And doing it for what possible reason?
Why would they allow people in this country unvetted in the first place?
One house Democrat claims that Trump's immigration crackdown will leave Americans without anyone to wipe our asses.
I'm not making that up either.
Congresswoman Becca Ballant, a Democrat from Vermont, suggesting that President Trump's immigration crackdown will leave Vermonters without anyone around to wipe our asses.
Does she hire people to wipe her backside?
Apparently, I guess she does.
But our economies completely bound up in immigration, blah, blah, blah.
ICE arrests of Biden illegals hit 2200 in a single day.
And we have we're only, if we were to get 3,000 a day, we're still not going to get anywhere near the number we need to get to ever.
You know, we're talking about anywhere from twelve to twenty million unvetted Biden Harris Mayorcus illegals.
They aided and abetted in all of the law breaking that has taken place.
Now, no wonder, and President Trump does deserves a lot of credit for this, is President Trump is banning visitors from terrorist friendly nations from entering the U.S. And he used his presidential authority yesterday to ban travelers from global terrorist hotspots from obtaining visas into the U.S. And this recent terror attack in Boulder is like the last straw.
It has underscored the extreme dangers that are posed to our country by the entry of foreign nationals who are not properly vetted, as well as those who come here as temporary visitors and overstay their visa, according to the Trump, you know, White House.
We don't want them, he added.
Now, we don't have a problem.
If you come into the country legally, we have a chance to check your background and your associations and make sure you don't have radical ties.
I think a health ch health check in a post-pandemic world is a good idea.
I think if you're going to come to America, you can't be a financial burden on the American people.
We can't afford it with $37 trillion in debt.
And by the way, why did the Arizona governor Katie Hobbs stupidly halt an effort to keep China from buying up land near military installations in the state of Arizona?
This is just madness.
And then we're finding out this boulder suspect, apparently saying Allahu Akbar before the attack.
Remember those words infamous infamously uttered on the tape of the 9-11 hijackers, but you know, God is greater than the Zionists, apparently he uttered.
And this is now a result of what has been a systemic effort to prioritize the rights of illegals over the safety and security of you, the American people.
All right, we've got a lot of other news.
We're going to get to all of it today.
The president put out this truth today.
I just concluded a very good call with President Qi of China discussing some of the intricacies of our recently made and agreed to trade deal.
The call lasted approximately one and a half hours.
It resulted in a very positive conclusion for both countries.
There should no longer be any questions respecting the complexity of rare earth products.
Our respective teams will be meeting shortly at a location to be determined.
We will be represented represented by Howard Lutnik, who's the commerce secretary by the Secretary of Treasury Scott Besson, and the U.S. trade representative, Ambassador Jameson Greer.
During the conversation, President Chi graciously invited The first lady and me to visit China and I reciprocated as presidents of two great nations.
This is something that we both look forward to doing.
The conversation was focused almost entirely on trade.
Nothing was discussed concerning Russia, Ukraine, or Iran.
We will inform the media as to scheduling the location of the soon to be meeting.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
That is called progress.
Oh.
Who's been saying that eventually China would have to come around?
Me.
Why?
Because they need access to your money in our markets.
Anyway, so that seems to be a positive breakthrough.
Now, a lot of the deep devil will be in the details and the follow-up and all of this.
Um, this on the heels, though, of two Chinese scientists that have now been charged in a shocking plot to smuggle what is a toxic pathogen into the U.S. Uh apparently worked at an American laboratory led by more senior Chinese scientists funded by our government.
This is madness to me.
Anyway, the two were charged Tuesday with smuggling a fungus uh into the U.S. in 2024.
The fungus is classified in the scientific literature as a potential agro-terrorism weapon, meaning agriculture.
Now, let's see.
Who was in charge of the federal government in 2024?
Oh, that right, that would be Joe Biden.
That's right, Joe Biden.
He was president when it was funneled with your tax dollars, you know, to the lab where these two Chinese bioweapon terrorists apparently worked.
That would be the Biden administration.
What a shock.
Bankrolling, just like they lied about the virus.
We got into this with Dan Bongino last night.
They knew that they were lying to all of us.
They did we we are gonna see information, and and we tried to break through with this information many times, and the emails prove it, and the text messages that furiously late into the night, Fauci and company at the very beginning of this, they knew that the Eco Health Alliance got money from the NIH.
That money went to the Wuhan Virology Lab.
They knew at the Wuhan Virology Lab that gain of function research takes took place and coronavirus research took place.
And Fauci had been on record since 2012 saying he supported gain of function research, even if it resulted in a worldwide pandemic.
Now, if you think back, the Biden administration ended Trump's China initiative.
That was designed to ferret out Chinese spies working at American universities.
John Solomon, just the news.com.
Thanks to him, we now know the Biden administration was funding the University of Michigan lab, where at least two Chinese spies worked and where they were busy trying to smuggle these deadly bioweapons into America.
It turns out the funding of that Chinese spy lab wasn't the only thing Team Biden did that helped the Chinese agents remain at some of the most prestigious inner universities.
Some of you may recall during his first administration, Trump launched his DOJ, something called the China Initiative, designed to ferret out Chinese spies that had infiltrated some of America's most important research university programs.
Guess what?
Guess who pulled the plug?
Here's a headline.
Politico, February 2022.
Biden DOJ shuts down.
China focused anti-espionage program.
That was working.
That was protecting America.
As Donald Trump said, we can't have open immigration from any country.
We cannot safely and reliably vet and scream screen.
Scary times, I will tell you.
No wonder why Dan Bongino is telling me, yeah, we're going to get to the Epstein and all those other stuff.
We got to keep Americans alive.
This is chilling.
All right, as we roll along 800 941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Not surprising to me in any way, shape, manner, or form.
Um, when you have two strong personalities, one Donald Trump, one Elon Musk.
Um, I don't think it's good for either one of them.
Let them have the little fight.
You know, sometimes you just gotta let people fight it out.
I mean, I've had friends of mine, and you try to step in and you try to stop.
I'm like, you know what?
They're gonna fight it out.
Let them fight it out.
And, you know, at some point, everyone's gonna come to the conclusion.
Uh, this is just dumb.
Uh not unpredictable.
When I first interviewed the two of them together, I said, you know, this is what they want, meaning the media uh and the the left in America.
Umfortunate.
Not a big deal in the end, I promise.
800 941 Sean.
What I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why.
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
It's almost a dirty word.
One that connotes conspiracy theory.
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
You put two and two together.
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Benghazi is a Rosetta Stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
I'm Leon Nayfock from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
This is Fiasco Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Yeah, that's right.
Locker up.
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey there.
I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started normally a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass.
You're our kind of people.

That I can tell you.
And why I'm getting them up there with a professional comedian, I don't know.
But uh, I will tell you this.

Um all right, so good news on the the China question.
President announcing a positive breakthrough with China.
Biden administration, we find out funded the lab that employed the two Chinese scientists who tried to smuggle bioweapons into the U.S. Uh and the Biden administration ended the Trump China initiative, which was designed to ferret out Chinese spies, and then you have Democrats like Katie Hobbs, the governor of Arizona, vetoing a bill that would prevent Chinese nationals from buying land near military bases.
You know, do you think that that President Xi would let me buy some of their farmland or ranch land or land near their military bases?
Hell no.
Never happened.
Why did we let that happen?
Why did Joe Biden allow that to happen?
Why do these Chinese nationals want to do it?
Why did this all happen when Joe had open borders?
You know, these Chinese uh scientists caught smuggling this dangerous agricultural fungus into the U.S. I mean, when you actually look at the University of Michigan researchers here, you know, it's capable of destroying crops and poisoning livestock and humans all at the same time.
That's how dangerous this this crazy fungus is.
Yeah, you got it from the same people that brought you COVID.
The very same country.
You know, we we have there's this is what Dan Bongino was saying last night.
The the threat level, the drone threat level, the China threat level is beyond anybody's comprehension.
When Christopher Ray said it like the last six times when he went before the House of the Senate, you know, to me it was a CYA because, well, see, I warned you, but meanwhile, here's the guy that did nothing to force the Biden administration to obey the laws of this land and not allow unvetted illegal immigrants, one after another after another, back into the country.
And that's why President Trump put his travel ban back in effect, and including 12 countries, Afghanistan, Iran, Somalia, Libya, Yemen.
Why?
Because they're very high risk because of terrorist activity, weaker hostile governments, or high visa overstay rates.
And that was a promise that the president made to the American people.
And he said that the recent terror attack in Boulder is like the the f the straw that broke the con camel's back.
He said underscored the extreme dangers posed to our country by the entry of foreign nationals who are not properly vetted.
Now, I like legal immigration.
I wouldn't be here except for legal immigration because my four grandparents without a penny to their name came from Ireland and by the way, back by Ancestry.com.
It came back.
I'm one of the few people apparently that like are at 100% Irish, or they call it British Isle.
And it makes sense considering that, you know, I had two grandparents from County Cork and two from County Down.
And you know, those grandparents created my parents and my grand uh created my parents and my parents with God created me.
Have to bring in the God part.
Um so it just kind of makes sense, but they went through the process of coming here legally, and they went through Ellis Island.
I actually went and I wouldn't uh me and my sisters and we got the papers.
I actually have all the paperwork from Ellis Island at the time, and this is where that Statute of Liberty means so much to so many people.
And I don't mind where you come from.
I don't care.
I don't care where you come from around the world, but please we need to do it legally.
We need to do a background check.
We need to see if you have radical associations.
We need to do a health check, especially in a post-pandemic world.
We also, because we need to keep Americans healthy, and we need to also do a financial means test.
You can't come here and then rely on American taxpayers when we have 37 trillion dollars in debt.
We just can't afford it.
By the way, the Army met their recruitment goals.
More than 61,000 young Americans are now serving the country inspired by purpose and patriotism.
And uh by the way, this has not happened in some time, and I can tell you why.
A lot of people did not want to serve under Joe Biden.
They did not want to join a woke military.
President Trump also banning international students from studying at Havid in the latest bombshell proclamation against this Ivy League institution.
Can you imagine $53 billion?
$53 billion that they have in an endowment, and yet they still want and think they are owed taxpayer dollars to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars that they got.
Hundreds of millions of dollars.
Why are we giving them a penny?
They got plenty of money.
They don't need our money.
And they're getting a lot of their money.
A lot of these Ivy League schools from uh uh nations in the Gulf that nobody oh, Donald Trump, he he got the plane from Qatar Cutter defending both pronunciations are correct.
Actually, I found out the Qataris or they actually tend to refer to it as cutter more than we do.
But both pronunciations are correct.
Uh and nobody noticed or cared that Qatar, we have our largest military base in the Gulf States in the Middle East.
It's in Qatar.
It's right there.
Did you know that that government's fate spent eight billion dollars on our military base?
Why would they spend eight billion dollars and then give us a plane, which is four hundred million dollars?
Because they want us there.
Because they buy our military equipment and they want to continue to be able to buy our military equipment because the research money and technology to create that military equipment comes from us, and there is a high value on it.
And us being there in the region creates a safety net for them and gives them security they would not otherwise have.
And yeah, there's a price for them, it's a price associated, you know, with wanting to be safe and secure in a part of the world that still has a country like Iran.
And by the way, we're getting very close to that decision.
Uh a federal judge, but we got lawfare going on blocking the deportation of the family of the terrorist firebomber, this one who tried to incinerate Jewish people.
You know, this federal judge, Gordon P. Gallagher, directed the federal government to stop the deportation proceedings of Mohad's Solomon's 41-year-old wife and their five children.
Why?
If he's radicalized, isn't there a high possibility that their family is as well?
Did he did he not speak of his radical views in his home?
You don't think that my kids grow at home knew where my political leanings were?
By the way, thank God I can officially declare they turned out normal.
Uh migrants sent to the notorious El Salvadorian prison.
Get this.
James Bosberg is back, the Obama judge, specifically outlining the steps the Trump administration need to take, but said one week would be given for the government to outline how they intend to comply.
Oh, gee, thanks for the week.
You know, Biden back judge blocking the deportation of the boulder family, and and yeah, you well, we gotta they gotta have their rights.
Illegal by definition don't have rights.
Bozeburg made headlines earlier this year for granting the first emergency restraining order.
He was the guy that went against, you know, the um what was the uh alien enemies act of 1798?
He's the same guy.
He's a leftist judge.
This is now they are trying to use the courts to usurp the constitutional authority duly granted to a duly elected president.
That's what all of this is all about.
And one positive note, a DC judge has dismissed the Democratic Party lawsuit, accusing the president of violating the FEC and trying to assert control over the independent Federal Election Commission.
The judge ruled that the three National Democratic Committees lacked a concrete and imminent injury to justify suing now because they did not show Trump would violate election law.
I mean, they just they want Trump in court every second, every minute, every hour of every day.
So it's stymies the agenda that he was elected to an act.
By the way, more good economic data on top of low inflation, on top of job availability, on top of consumer prices.
Anyway, Commerce Department data shows U.S. trade deficit plunged in April.
The trade gap fell by more than half in April as imports plunged.
The data showed the U.S. registered a trade deficit of about $61 billion in April, a sharp decline from a hundred and forty billion the month before.
And in the last two months, Donald Trump's been averaging about 25 billion in added revenues.
And by the way, with all that said, the economy's never been in better shape.
The Atlanta Fed projecting 4.6% GDP growth of the second quarter.
You know, people are not really let me let me tell you, Americans are very, very savvy, and they're going to figure out ways to get product to market that is beyond creative because they're the creative people that thought of the idea in the first place.
By the way, one thing to watch, and I want more cuts, by the way, and I think the Republicans can definitely do a second reconciliation bill, and certainly they can do it when they return to regular order and create their 20 uh 26 budget.
But this bill, you know, one one of the issues will deal with Obama's Affordable Care Act, which isn't affordable.
That's just a phony name.
But this Obamacare bill, what most people don't know that in practice, experts have pointed this out again and again.
It's widely abused that marketplace customers underreport their income to obtain lower premiums.
That costs taxpayers billions.
This bill is rooting out that corruption and that loophole.
House Republicans inserted provisions into the one big beautiful bill to address the corruption and the millions of people that have no business being on Medicaid, for example, and that will save all of us money, and we will stop being ripped off by people that are lying.
The bill will make the you know, Obamacare less prone to fraud, waste, and abuse, and better ensure that the subsidies are going to eligible individuals that need the most.
And Democrats, they just lie, they're cutting.
They're cutting no, they're cutting out the fraud.
The people that lie about their income levels to get the subsidy.
That's coming from all of you.
And the bill would also require marketplace customers to re-enroll every year.
Well, I have a health care plan with my employer, and guess what?
I have to re-enroll every year.
And they're saying that this requirement to reenroll every year and reconfirm your chosen coverage is somehow an undue burden.
I bet you everyone listen to my listening to my voice right now.
It was interesting.
Chucky Schumer sidestepped the question about whether he supported states giving illegal immigrants taxpayer-funded health insurance.
Because the answer is he does, as every Democrat does.
