I had the whole show done. Justin, did I not have the show done? - I, how much of the show? - The whole show! The whole 60, not 61 minutes. Like 60 minutes, which added a minute. I had no intentions of adding a minute for anyone. It was 60 minutes, duh. You see this? Done. Look at the little notes in them. Thank God, papers have margins. Because we had to add a whole freakin' show because clown-corrupt goofball-communist-corrupted-crat, 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 gonna 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 the entity he did while I was vice president. What a freakin' scam!

Here's the Wall Street Journal commenting on the story, of course, last night. Biden drops this bomb. I had the show already done and ready to rock and roll. And I see breaking news. I'm going through, I'm watching this special about Wyatt Earp and the cowboy wars. And my phone starts blowing up. Dude, he did it. I just wanna say, self-praise thinks. But in this case, I don't really care because what did we say? Did we not say, my head like 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 stingy in which is moment. Because he says, Dad, no, no. What do you mean, Dad? He's not the loving fathers. 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, let's go back to you. Actually, I'm looking in a wrong direction because I'm looking at the screen, looking at you. But the screen's looking at you because everything's backward. (laughing) 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. Does it? 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 debots 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. He's gonna, what are you gonna 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 gonna say but Guy is always, for Guy as 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 got, I've always been honest about my sources. Yes, Justin, the big guy was about to get the big, whoo-hoo, right up the caboosteroo ski, 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 in the Kamala Harris team. I didn't. I got damn good ones on the Biden team. Oh, trust your boy D-Bods. They, 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 want 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 bag. 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. Dad 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. That's, 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 homeless. No, no, I'm telling you Joe Biden was screwed. They were afraid of Biden getting roped in on a pharah 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 US 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 of 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 going to be hard to convince me otherwise. And Joe Biden had almost as much, if not more, liability than a 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. Wait till this, the next Secret Service Director, I'm just telling you now, wherever it is, I'm going to be pushing you on this cocaine thing because you know, you guys know who you've narrowed it down. You know who it is. And you think Hunter Biden's the, he ain't even the worst one in this group. This family is gross. They are nasty. Here's Karine John Pierre lying over and over and over 'cause 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 Mayes Moore. If it's not, we love Mayes Moore, M-A-Z-E-M-O-R-E. Follow him on X, that count is really awesome for video. Here's Karine John Pierre. This should be the only thing she's ever remembered for. Check this out. - From a presidential perspective, is there any possibility that the president would end up pardoning his son? - No. - The president would not pardon or communicate for his son Hunter. I just want to make sure that that is not going to change until the next six months. The president's saying he would not-- - It's still, it's still a no. It's still a no. - 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 gonna pardon his son Hunter. Is he gonna ask Donald Trump to do that? - I don't have anything else to share about that. I'm not gonna go down a rabbit hole on this. I've been very clear. The president's been very clear. Well, 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 me. But we have a lot of stuff for me. So they're all good. Make sure you follow all 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 said, disgrace. If Karine Jean Pierre had any human dignity at all, folks in the chat, did we break the chatter? What did she do today? She should resign today. Today. There is zero doubt she should resign today and preserve some shred of human dignity. - Is we aren't even proud of the room, boy? No, okay, it's just my phone. Yeah, I gotta put my debit down. - Resign today? Resign today, show America. Please, can we get the socks up again? 'Cause 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, (laughs) I'll call it performance. The hack, goon, disgusting, filthy, enemies of freedom and liberty, the modern, disgusting, filthy, liberal media have to make this story about what happens every time there is a Democrat scandal the media can't explain away. The story becomes a Republican's pound story every single time. What's a Republican's pound story? Because the media cannot explain away Democrat, disgusting, filthy, communist, authoritarian, filth, bad, grotesque behavior, they make the story about not the scandal, but the Republican reaction to it. Sometimes they actually write Republicans' pounds. He's like, I got an example. No, yes, we do. Politico, Republicans' pounds on Biden pardoning his son Hunter. Notice, the story isn't about what the Democrats did, these scumbags, the stories about the Republican reaction. This is who bullshit ago 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. I mean, seven out of 10, thank you guys suck. It's because you do suck. Here's at the TONUS Tony Kid in 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 gonna be replaced. He was Biden isn't gonna 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 what? 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 and Jerry. 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. 'Cause 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 barrel 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, 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. It's nothing Trump could do either when he said that you can only pardon for federal crimes. And 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 Elliot over at Grahamian, 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. That's why you 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. The 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. What we're hearing about the Republicans who say they don't accept the jury's verdict here in New York. The contrast is profound. To sit there and say 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 in 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 like Henry's freshman year in college. Justin, it Justin goes to, it's like 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 it's money, but definitely it's right. Maybe if you describe mammals as lizards, you would be like, I'm out of here. Everything these idiots tell you is wrong. Batting average on our show, 1000. Told you they were going to pardon this guy. I did, I did, that's so correct. Justin's like, you've already had a home run. I haven't even pitched a break a ball. I'm not wasting your time. I love you guys too much. Hey, the world's on edge right now.

We cash Patel coming up including Andy Weisman and others, but before we're done, I just wanna 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 Weisman, Chuck Todd, Brian Stelter, Rachel Maddow, Natasha Bertrand, all of these losers who have been on the wrong side of everything. The laptop, the Intell officials, spy gate, collusion, the pardon. Why do you keep listening to these idiots? Here's Andrew Weisman, 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 gonna pardon his son. These guys are a gift to us. 'Cause all we gotta 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. Yeah. 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, Maise. I don't, listen, I need your help. Listen, I need your help. Listen, spit it out there. There's nothing to spit out. I don't even know what to tell you. I really, how many times are we gonna have this conversation? How is it if you were a dumb-ass liberal? How are you still watching these morons? Are they gonna get anything right like ever about anything? Can 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. 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, it's frustrating. This is actually good news though. Because it gives us more material when Cash 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 over time 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, I'm sure people have saved stuff. I'm sure of it. You know, chop the true social post. This came out some great news. Donald Trump's proud to announce Cash Patel will serve as the next director of the FBI. Now, keep in mind, Christopher Ray'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 Ray 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 Ray 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 their over Cash Patel this weekend, I mean lost it. I could play clips all day over Cash 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. Your 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 in 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 Cash 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 Cash 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 at 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. What's in the chat? What's McCabe afraid of? Fire away. Fire away. Would it McCabe? Yes. Beauty on duty in the chat McCabe is terrified. You're damn right McCabe and Mike Cash 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. 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 Cash Patel. You have got to be kidding me. Why is he freaking out about Cash Patel folks? You got to see this clip coming up next and by the way everyone's saying cash is going to have a tough time getting through the Senate. Listen guys in the Senate and the Republican side it's put your egos aside. This is not a threat. I might hear a threat in 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. So the rhinos in the Senate we don't want to be told. 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 is a republic you guys are supposed to represent us. You've already shit canned Matt Gates you guys mess with this guy in Senate 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 know 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 Ray 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 stakes wearing Omaha stakes household because they are can't be matched every single bite is absolutely delicious they make unforgettable gifts with 50% off site wide at Omaha stakes dot com plus score an extra $30 off with promo code banjito the food is delicious with generations of experience they consistently deliver the world's best steak experience had a couple this weekend and the gifting experts on Omaha stakes made it easy to deliver the perfect gift with thoughtfully curated gift packages featuring gourmet favorites.

Thank you Jase here is why they are afraid of cash Patel cash did stints at the Department of Defense and in the director the DNI the director of national intelligence office and he went in there and cash 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 is about billots and this is about money and nobody wants their job going away don't make this over complicated and cash 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 frickin 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 your cops go be cops go chase down murders 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 the 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 billots this is one of the things we did when I was deputy DNI got to DNI and I was like okay what 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 billots and they hated us for it why why would Congress hate you for that not Congress though 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 for 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 get 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 what 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 about this 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 here's it though this guy Mike Waller about to play I'm playing this clip for a reason this is one of those congressman guys who's like a really establishment guys 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 yeah is it CNN 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 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 movements 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 in the Department of Justice so I don't know why any of this is frankly surprising to people President Trump has nominated in cash 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 Cash 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 you know 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 that was part of the record is I going to go away so he must know something but it's on us to keep the squeeze on and that threatening anybody I love these these centers oh my gosh what I do I don't think 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 case okay you took your scalp fine now with I it's not fine with me but it's not much we can do about it now he dropped out you don't we're we're not 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 if you've seen this clip by the way that was from the Sean Ryan show before with cash this is from the Tim Poole show proper credit here cash was on with Tim Poole a while ago I want you to listen to this clip and I'm gonna 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 Poole and I'm gonna play the clip he's talking about afterwards this is another reason they're freaked out watch this video showing a guy with an earpiece pulling people into the building all right you combine that with the evidence of right apps 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 spent flat out were their federal agents involved with January 6th and she said quote senator I can't answer that at this time not 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 stone walling they gave us during restaurant gate with Christopher Steele helper and everybody else it's the same narrative and I'm telling you they were there 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 folks 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 justin if this sounds dumb 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 sources how did that shit get out on the damn bajito 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 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 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 bombing 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 do she 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 uh did any FBI agents or confidential informants actively participate in the events of January 6th yes or no sorry i can't i can't answer that did any FBI agents or confidential informants commit crimes of violence on January 6th 6th i can't answer that sir did any FBI agents or FBI informants actively encourage and incite crimes of violence on January 6th so which next sir i can't answer that okay now it's not gee and i'm screwing up the audio that's the lady getting feedback on her own system she said FBI headquarters why can't you answer it you know i i just want to be clear the FBI and the deep state DOJ that's been trying to sabotage us the maga movement in donald trump since 2015 that same FBI is 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 18 11 gs 18 11 for years working criminal cases in the government you what 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 any 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 sixth 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 the entire time 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 in cell 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 a 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 whites house the whites house implying some type of racial motive for Trump appointing Cash Patel who we all know is uh very white Cash Patel do you know that Justin very white Cash Patel he is he's a white he's a what's the category that white his span if it is he a white Indian miss out how that works is that when you want to characterize people according to your little racial identity politics uh shitty boxes you put together white adjacent thank you Gia forgot the term Cash is definitely white adjacent he says it was the hyzer justice sympathizer this is a 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 divine I need you to pay attention as peace bongino.com/newsletter the newsletter is 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 president 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 Biden's Miranda divine 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 dollar bribe to the Biden's money Ukraine Biden's 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 was 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 we there's only one way to find out and that's to bust him out a 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 we listen to me here this is important I'm gonna play this next clip for you from Rogan show in a second that you need to hear too this deep state cartel has been pin us over for too long now we have two years to fix this two years no damn 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 Marc Andreessen was on Joe Rogan 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 phenomena this is why I started parallel economy.com if you're interested I'm not you know we 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 left these 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 him 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 the banking is when you're you as either a person or your company or literally kicked out of the banking system like they did the Kanye exactly like they did the Kanye my partner Ben's father has been debanked really we had an employee for what we for having the wrong politics for saying unacceptable things under current banking regulations under okay here's a great 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 were a PEP you were required by financial regulators to kick them off of your out to kick them out of your bank what you're not allowed to have them you're politically on the left that's fine because they're because they're not politically exposed so no one on the left gets debunked now I have not heard of a single instance of anybody left getting to you financial warfare financial warfare against the mid 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 are what the scum in the deep state of done is they've deputized social media companies in 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 should 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 cash pitel folks crazy good audience today 175,000 559 560 thank you that person just dropped in we love you thank you for making us the
