If anything happens to our Carlson or me,
you obviously know that Israel was involved.
Obviously, that is unbelievably apparent
in their rhetoric, their name checking us,
they're calling us on stage,
they're sending their goons out to harass us
because we believe in America first
and that we should stop getting involved
in their interests and that it is unacceptable, frankly,
that our government gives more flak to Tucker Carlson.
Our government representatives give more flak
than they did to Jeffrey Epstein,
that they choose to cover up the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein
while pretending that speech in America
is what's actually radical,
not people who are actually harming children
and abusing children sexually.
We don't even have a government in my view.
Like, we can't even protect the nation's most innocent.
How do we even have a government?
So we've got Candice Owens once again saying
that if she were to die or Tucker Carlson,
that you know who's behind it, you know.
And yeah, I think we're all kind of feeling the same way.
And then over the past week, now I've got Dave Smith.
Granted, he's somewhat joking,
but also fearful for him getting into a Twitter spat
with Dan Bongino that he's fearful too.
And it's like, is this a paradigm
that we're supposed to accept
that we're supposed to live with, live in?
I would say no, probably not.
But just in case you think that Candice Owens
or Tucker Carlson or Dave Smith are being paranoid,
I'm gonna remind you what Dan Bongino
had to say in July of last year
because I feel like it's been memory-hold
and it's probably the most important
and arguably honest thing
Dan Bongino did his entire tenure within the FBI
and which he said.
During my tenure here
as the deputy director of the FBI,
I have repeatedly relayed to you
that things are happening
that might not be immediately visible
but they are happening.
The director and I are committed
to stamping out public corruption
and the political weaponization
of both law enforcement and intelligence operations.
It is a priority for us.
But what I have learned in the course
of our properly predicated
and necessary investigations
into these aforementioned matters
has shocked me down to my core.
We cannot run a republic like this.
I'll never be the same
after learning what I've learned.
I will never be the same
after learning what I've learned.
So what did he learn?
We don't know.
Dan has never talked about this again.
He will probably,
under the pretense of having an NDA,
not talk about it once he takes back
to the airwaves on February 5th,
I believe it is.
He finishes out with,
I cannot predict where it will land
but I can promise you an honest
and dignified effort at the truth.
Not my truth or your truth
but the truth.
God bless America
and all those who defend her respectfully, Dan.
Now why he signs it off like that?
I don't know.
Not really relevant.
What is relevant though
is that Dan Bongino is coming back to his show
and a lot of people are asking themselves
or at least they should be if they're not.
Why?
Why did Dan Bongino leave
pretty unceremoniously
after a year
without accomplishing
really any of the goals
that he set out to accomplish?
Now that's not to imply
that the FBI didn't arrest anybody
or any child predators.
They did.
They always do.
Every year they do.
But in terms of his explicit goals
and in terms of his explicit promises
as to what he was going to deliver on
he really didn't check any of those boxes.
So how does a guy
who made his name
off of basically declaring
that he's this truth-telling savage
an ass kicker
get into the second highest level
position at the FBI
deliver nothing
and then come back to a microphone
and start saying the same bullshit
he said to get into that position
delivered nothing
and then come back and say he's
what?
What is he going to say?
And I think people are kind of
missing this here
and this is why I wanted to talk about it.
What has happened over the last year?
Well, lots happened.
But what's the biggest shift
in your opinion?
Well, I'll tell you what mine is.
The biggest shift in my opinion
is that the media landscape
has tilted so heavily away from Israel
or pro-Zionist talking points
that they really need reinforcements.
That they are desperate.
That they are losing that battle
in an extreme fashion
from Nick Fuentes to Dave Smith
to Tucker Carlson to Canisones
to a multitude of other
high-profile voices
that are all at least Israel critical.
And then you've got the old guard
Glenn Beck, Ben Shapiro, and the likes
Mark Levin.
That's like the only impersonation
I can do for Mark Levin.
And they're getting trounced.
They're all declining.
Although those other people
I listed off are ascended.
So Dan Bongino was,
I don't know exactly how high-profile he was,
but I know he was like a top five,
at least a top 10
conservative commentator and live streamer.
So would it be nice to have his voice back
in the ranks,
basically sell both pro-Zionist arguments,
but also what's the other big shift that's happened?
Well, from a year ago,
which was approximately
inauguration time,
Trump had never been more popular,
like literally ever.
He had this incredible coalition
that had just brought him to power.
He had been oppressed and repressed
by the regime,
by the establishment,
by the media apparatus.
And then you have this incredible alliance
that brings him back into the White House.
And everyone's expecting these great things,
none of which really come to pass,
but public opinion still matters,
particularly if you're trying to,
I don't know,
start a war with Iran or Venezuela or whatever.
You need the base on your side.
They are emerging that base.
They are going over to voices
that are increasingly critical
of the Trump administration
and our relationship with Israel.
Well, Dan Bongino is neither of those things.
He's not critical.
In fact, he said,
one of his highest priorities in life
is the defense of Israel,
which is super odd,
but okay.
What causes fear to your heart?
Causes fear to my Israel,
the defense of Israel.
And he's also obviously a water carrier
for the Trump regime.
And he's also a fairly compelling commentator,
or at least a successful one in the past.
So I want you to ask yourself,
is Dan Bongino leaving the FBI,
or is he on a secondary mission
for that same institution?
Personally, I think it's the latter.
I think that Dan Bongino is very much
still doing his job.
Do you feel comfortable stepping away
and knowing that it's good?
Well, I wouldn't say anything's ever good
and that human beings are incorruptible.
They are.
There has to be mechanisms in government.
Am I comfortable that Cash and I
did everything we could in the past year
to create institutional safeguards
against things happening again anytime soon?
Yes.
You know, the problem is
you can get new leadership in there later.
That can obviously change it.
I don't know if you can answer this question,
but how many people did you fire?
There were a lot of personnel changes.
I'll leave it at that a lot.
So Dan's confident that he and Cash basically
saved the FBI.
How did they do that?
Well, there's about 35,000 employees at the FBI.
How many do you think that they fired
during their illustrious tenure of under 12 months?
That would be 138.
So the same organization that was
responsible for buying on moms at PTA meetings
and setting up the J-6ers
and the Whitmer kidnapping hoax and,
oh, I don't know, treason
when they tried to frame Trump for treason
with the Russians.
It's like, yeah, I think, I call me crazy.
I think there might need to be more than 138 firings.
But Dan is confident that he did a good job,
that he crushed it.
But as I said earlier, they need him.
They need him to still be a top five or whatever
conservative commentator, a MAGA water carrier.
He has to be that guy for them.
They need a voice like that.
They have to have it.
So what do you see happening?
Well, first off, Dan is blocking 80% of the internet,
which is hilarious, including me.
Hi, Dan.
But he's also getting what appears to me, in my opinion,
a pay for promotion campaign from a litany of people
that are all coming out,
announcing his big return on February 5th.
Dan Bajino is back and the Black Pillars are horrified.
We're not horrified.
And I think that their ratings,
Chris Pavlowski, the CEO of Rumble, is also pushing it.
Now, he's got an incredible incentive to do so,
because Dan Bajino was the biggest show that they had.
Oh, also, Dan Bajino is a co-owner.
He owns a decent-sized chunk of Rumble.
Oh, also, Rumble is down by over 40% over the past year.
So I think that Dan would very much like to help boost that stock,
but will it?
Not so sure.
And there's just an uncomfortable reality that I've noticed,
is that almost every single person,
high-profile account that's still boosting Dan Bajino,
despite his abject failure over the past year,
happens to be a pro-Israel account.
Weird, weird coincidence.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I can't help but notice it.
It's true.
You can go look for yourself.
If these are the people that have been
defending Israel's war on Gaza,
they are also the people that are now
defending Dan Bajino.
Coincidence, I think not.
So here's my tinfoil theory.
I think that Dan Bajino was put into that position at the FBI
to basically try and rehabilitate the image of the FBI,
keep it alive, because there was so much anger,
justifiably so, at that organization, at that agency,
that there was a decent chance that there was like,
I mean, I remember a year ago,
before Dan and Cash were going in there,
the real siren cry was abolish the FBI.
That's what most people were actually screaming for,
at least in the MAGA world or the libertarian world.
It was like, abolish the FBI.
This institution has demonstrated its depravity
on such a high level, it's got to go.
And then you're like, all right, well,
what would assuage these people?
We got Cash Patel, who wrote a book on it,
Dan Bajino, who I think also wrote a book on it
and talked about it for years.
They're going to be the top two guys there.
So if we're going to still have the institution, at least,
we've got some reputable outsider guys
who are going to come in there and shake shit up.
Did they know?
But it bought them time.
It saved the FBI.
But not in the way that Dan Bajino talks about it,
it saved the FBI as in like,
people stopped calling for its abolition
and went back to, maybe it can be reformed.
So while that PSYOP was being ran,
the other side of the PSYOP started to fail,
that the America First mantra,
that we're actually different,
that we actually care about this country,
that we're actually going to put American interests first.
And then we go and regime change a bunch of countries
and we bomb Iran and we do all of these things
that demonstrate, oh, that was also a PSYOP.
So Dan Bajino circles back and they're like, Dan, Dan,
we need you.
Well, he's like, well, I know you said that you needed me.
That's why I'm this deputy director of the FBI.
And they go, no, no, no, you don't understand.
Dan, Dan, I can't do a Trump impersonation,
so I won't do that.
We need you back on the front lines.
And he's like, I'm on the front lines.
They're like, look, you're not doing a good job at that.
We're going to need you back on the front lines
of the podcast wars,
because America First is trouncing con ink.
Get back out there.
So here's my super tin foil prediction for you.
I think that there's a distinct possibility
that you know how there's been these deadlines,
thanks to Ro Khanna and Massi and MTG and others
that passed the bill to force the Epstein disclosures
which, by the way, is now three weeks in default.
Well, Dan Bongino could be coming back right now.
He's not though.
He's coming back on February 5th.
So what do you think happens in the interim?
I'm guessing just my tin foil.
I'm just a crazy conspiracy theorist, podcaster.
I think that the DOJ is going to release
a insignificant but not totally insignificant
tranche that is somewhat unredacted
but not totally unredacted portion of the Epstein files.
Probably the day of or the day prior
to Bongino taking back to the airwaves.
And if they feel like they really need to help him out,
they might even throw in a low-level prosecution.
Is it going to be, I don't know,
Bill Clinton or anybody?
No.
By the way, Bill Clinton and Hillary,
they were supposed to testify today
regarding the Epstein files and they said no.
Reporting from Annie Carney,
she says Bill and Hillary Clinton
refused on Tuesday to testify
in the House's Jeffrey Epstein investigation,
escalating a month-long battle
with Representative James Comer
and effectively daring him to follow through
on his threats to hold them in contempt of Congress.
Quote,
Every person has to decide when they have seen
or had enough and are ready to fight
for this country, its principles, and its people.
No matter the consequences,
the Clintons wrote in the lengthy letter
to Mr. Comer.
For us now is that time.
Yes, the heroic Clintons fighting against the powers
that be.
And when did they finally find that backbone?
Well, right when they were supposed to testify
about the Epstein files,
of which Bill is all over.
Oh, the timing on that.
So they've spent an entire year,
actually more than that,
trying to browbeat and suppress people
like Charlie Kirk or Tucker Carlson
or Candice Owens or, to a lesser extent, Dave Smith
or other figures.
Certainly, Nick Fuentes has been under fire
for much longer than that even.
So they've been trying to suppress
the genuine America First messaging,
but it's failed terribly.
So they're like, all right,
we only have one guy who's somewhat beloved
by the MAGA base,
because Shapiro has basically lost his shine.
We've got to get somebody back in there.
We can't suppress any of these America First voices.
We can't really threaten or scare them into silence.
We've deployed massive, paid,
propagandist influencer campaigns
against these people,
trying to blacklist them
and make them persona on grotto.
That hasn't worked.
We've tried everything,
aside from assassination,
except in the case of Charlie Kirk, maybe.
So we got to just,
we got to bring out our own big gun.
And who's the big gun?
Dan fucking Bongino.
Oh man, it ain't working.
It ain't working.
But that's how they view these things.
So that's my honest read.
I think that's exactly what's happening.
I think that he is being redeployed.
He has not left the FBI here.
He has not left the Trump administration.
He is still very much a part of it.
And I think he is going to try his damnedest
to tell the base that
you should continue to trust the plan
or whatever, whatever.
Can someone please explain to me
why there are content creators
yelling about Dan Bongino,
not answering their little pet questions
when he was a guest on a recent podcast?
Here's a little quick insider pro tip.
But why would you give away content
and drive away viewership
from your own comeback show?
A lot of y'all have some real loud opinions
in zero business sense.
Just putting it out there, Trump 2028.
This is the level of defense
that Dan Bongino is getting.
That he's not answering our question.
He's not telling the truth
because he's saving it for his show.
So just a reminder, in July,
Dan Bongino said,
But what I have learned
has shocked me down to my core,
paraphrasing.
We cannot run a republic like this.
I'll never be the same
after learning what I've learned.
What did you learn, Dan Bongino?
And don't give me some nonsense
about welfare fraud or whatever.
We all know that you were hinting at,
you were dog whistling,
something extraordinary.
It shook you to your core, Dan Bongino.
What? What did?
And why?
Why has there been no one responsible
for Arctic Frost or the,
yeah, I mean,
treason against Trump
or treason against the American people
or Fauci.
I mean, the list or the Epstein case,
the list of areas
that you could have delivered
that you didn't is so extraordinary.
And there has been really no explanation
as to why you didn't.
And you expect your audience to line back up
to hop in there every night
and go, oh, or every morning.
Oh, Dan, tell me the truth, Dan.
Nobody else will.
I don't think it's going to happen.
And here's my prediction.
I think it's going to fail so miserably.
I think his ratings out the gate
will be very, very good
because everybody's wondering,
how is he going to spin it?
I'm wondering myself,
how is he going to spin it?
But beyond that,
beyond the first week,
I think it'll be like a monstrous crater.
I wouldn't be surprised.
I mean, this is,
I wouldn't be surprised
if by the end of this year,
Dan Bongino is seriously considering retirement
as his reputation will be just so shattered.
I mean, they couldn't delete comments fast enough.
Now, granted, he was a guest on this show,
but it was on his channel on rumble a week ago.
They couldn't delete comments fast enough.
I mean, it was just a deluge
of people absolutely furious with him.
There are replies to it.
You can go look them up yourself
unless they've deleted all them too.
We're viciously angry, justifiably.
So let me just say, do not let up.
Do not forgive.
Demand better.
Give your attention to those
that are actually interested
in conveying the truth to you.
Make sure that you do not support
anyone who has demonstrated to you
that they are an abject overt liar and failure.
And that's exactly what Dan Bongino is.
And he fucking knows it,
which is exactly why he's so pissed
that everybody's calling him out for it.
So don't stop.
And you know what it reminds me of?
I miss Charlie Kirk.
And I say this as someone who's critical of him
because I thought he was too slanted towards Israel,
but man, do we need him right now.
What have we learned when it comes to wars
and especially wars in the Middle East?
What you draw up on a whiteboard rarely happens.
What you think theoretically is going to occur,
there might be unintended and unforeseen consequences,
especially when you're talking about a country
two and a half times the size of Texas,
it has 90 million people.
This sounds like Hillary Rodham Clinton in Libya.
So I'm pointing to the first extreme right now,
the neoconservative extreme.
It's time to close the chapter on the Iranian,
Ayatollah and his henchmen.
Let's close that chapter soon
and start a new chapter in the Middle East,
one of tolerance, the open peace.
Okay, that sounds good,
but that's pathologically insane.
I'm sorry, it is.
How do you know it's going to be better?
Yeah, the Ayatollah is awful,
but maybe he's one of the few guys
that can keep that country together
and not have a 90 million person civil war.
Lindsey Graham is so consistently out of his mind,
it's hard to even comprehend
the other extreme
is one that I have deep respect and reverence for
because I actually think if we had that other extreme,
we would not have invaded Iraq.
And that's the Ron Paul extreme.
And I love Ron Paul.
Ron Paul is awesome.
I would have Ron Paul on the show regularly.
He is a hero because Ron Paul had the courage
to challenge old sacred cows of the Republican Party.
He made people defend the indefensible.
But the Ron Paul perspective is strictly isolationist.
I actually agree with a lot of this other extreme.
Ayatollah, I think it's healthy to have this other extreme
more than the Neoconservative extreme
because this extreme has been underrepresented
in the public dialogue and discourse the last 20 years.
So you have these two extremes.
I honestly don't think the Neoconservative extreme
needs to be represented philosophically anymore.
Charlie Kirk, the head of TPUSA,
one of the biggest proponents of pro-Israel relations,
while simultaneously being in that position,
he's also saying that love Ron Paul,
I'd have Ron Paul on every day,
and that the Neocon position does not need to be voiced
or defended any longer,
and that the more isolationist mantra or mentality
ought to be considered and embraced far more often
than the alternative.
That is, in my opinion, if you go down the path
of believing that he was assassinated
for his political beliefs,
and I'm not talking about his negative commentary
when it comes to the trans community or whatever,
the Tyler Robinson narrative,
if you think that there was something more to Ferris,
if you think that there was a government plot
against Charlie Kirk's life,
I'm telling you right now,
that is your starting point as to motive.
His job, whether he knew it or not,
was to guide his followers, his audience,
his listeners, his base,
in the direction of a pro-Israel pro-intervention mindset,
just as Dan Bongino's job is to do the same.
And in July of 2025,
just as all of that search history,
that anomalous search history,
started to pop up in Langley, in Israel, other places,
started to demonstrate that perhaps an assassination
was in fact being planned against him,
that's what he was saying on his show,
at length, overtly, openly discussing,
let's not bomb Iran.
In fact, he went so far as to go to the White House
and advocate on behalf of the non-interventionist position,
and two months later, he was dead.
If I received a tip from someone
that was directly involved with the planning of an event
that Charlie Kirk was supposed to attend the following day,
on September 11th, the day after his assassination,
Charlie was slated to speak in Woodland Park, Colorado,
and they were panicked because, believe it or not,
they had absolutely no security plan in place.
They thought, how odd,
we don't have a security plan in place,
now we better consider this,
and we need to make sure
that we have police officer involvement.
Why didn't Dan Flood and Brian Harpole
and Turning Point USA's security have any coordination
with the police departments up in Colorado?
We just didn't think to do that
for the event that he had the next day.
No police officer involvement scheduled, nothing.
Suddenly they're panicked
because they realize they don't have anything scheduled.
Yeah.
Now I find it very hard to believe
that this story is true, very hard, because it is,
I mean, it's as close to a smoking gun as you'll get.
If it is in fact true that Flood, Harpole, etc.,
the security team for Charlie Kirk
did not have a security protocol established
for an event that they had planned the day
after he was assassinated,
that implies foreknowledge
that there would be no event the following day.
So we got to get to the bottom of that one.
If that's true, holy shit,
but I'm not going to get caught up in it
because it needs to be proven out.
So let's keep it moving.
So Charlie Kirk was warning in July of last year
about how Lindsey Graham is such a lunatic.
There have been large protests in Iran.
We already have evidence
that Mossad is in fact on the ground
and backing up much of these protests,
whether or not their CIA assets there as well
are American assets more broadly.
I don't know for sure,
but I would argue almost certainly.
And has Lindsey Graham changed his messaging?
No.
Stand behind the people, President Trump.
Stand up, stand behind them, fulfill your promise,
and you'll go down in history, Ronald Reagan Plus.
Senator Lindsey Graham, thank you.
We appreciate your time.
Has been Shapiro changed his messaging?
Also, no.
Vice President JD Vance suggested
that the smartest thing for the Iranians to do
is for them to have a real negotiation
with the United States about their nuclear program.
Okay, I'm sorry.
That's nonsense.
That's just crap.
That's silly.
I like the vice president, but that's nonsense.
The notion that the Iranians could make
any guarantee to the United States
that would now be sufficient to quiet
our concerns about the revival of a nuclear program
is silly talk.
That is silly talk.
I don't do a good impersonation of him,
so I'm going to let Sneeko handle it.
I'm sorry.
That's nonsense.
That's just crap.
Crap.
That's silly.
Silly.
I like the vice president, but that's nonsense.
It is undermining, by the way.
It's silly.
It's crap.
But Israel can have nukes.
Israel can have a nuclear program.
But Iran, that's crap.
That's silly.
More nukes for Israel.
It should be the only ones.
But Iran, stupid.
That's dumb.
Dumb poopy crap.
Stupid crap.
And it will be performed largely through air power.
Now, instead of the 100,000 troops,
just planes.
Just a bunch of planes and airstrikes.
Instead of stationing troops in 100,000s,
just a few thousand.
Yes.
Go to war for me.
Matt Walsh, go to war.
Fuck off.
Nailed it.
That's exactly what Shapiro sounds like.
You wouldn't wait to buy fire insurance
when your house is already on fire, right?
So why wait to help protect your money?
I'm sure you're aware,
since you watched this show,
things are looking pretty dicey out there.
The economy, global tensions,
domestic tensions, AI, you name it.
Are you surprised that gold keeps skyrocketing
and the price of silver keeps surging?
I'm not.
And that's why I've decided to partner
with a great precious metals company, Goldco.
Goldco helps people safeguard their savings
with gold and silver.
They give it as a potential insurance policy
for everything you've worked for.
So if you're ready to help protect your money,
go to Clintlikesgold.com.
You'll get Goldco's free 2026 gold and silver kit,
and you could qualify for up to 10%
in free bonus silver or gold.
Just head over to Clintlikesgold.com.
Clintlikesgold.com.
Sorry, that was lame.
That's Clintlikesgold.com and check it out.
And thank you once again to Goldco
for sponsoring Liberty Lockdown.
And I got to be honest with you,
what's radicalized me the most
over the past week is just this constant,
like, it would be fine if a bunch of,
and this is not just strictly a Jewish thing,
even though Juan does in his audience,
yells at me, just say it.
It's not.
Lindsey Graham isn't.
This is a Zionist thing, clearly.
But it's just like, it's not that the,
if the Zionists were just saying,
like, just stand back, step aside,
let us handle it.
Like, the IDF is moving in.
We're going to go do this.
I'd be like, well, I don't really care.
Okay, good luck.
You guys have hated each other forever.
Duke it out, whatever.
But that's not what this is.
It's never that.
And it's not that because
they can't possibly win that war.
Instead, rather, it is America must America.
Do this, do that, pay for this, bond that,
die for this, fund this.
It's like, I'm just so, I'm so exhausted.
And that is really the overt messaging from Zionist.
And I'm talking all over the world.
Now, assuming they're real people,
which they're very high follower accounts,
so I tend to think that most of them are,
but they're just pushing the same talking point.
And it's so reminiscent of Iraq, Afghanistan,
basically every other quagmire, disastrous,
hellscape of a war that we've thought
on behalf of Israel over the past 20 years.
And I just say, no.
The United States has moved into the imperial phase of empire,
leaving the Republic shifting to empire.
And that's a pretty familiar life cycle for civilizations.
And so we sort of roughly know what will happen.
The first thing that's going to happen
is that the energy and the power will vest
in the executive and not the legislative branch.
Congress will inevitably wither.
It already is.
They were not consulted before we took out
the president of Venezuela.
They had no role in this whatsoever.
They have a constitutional authority here
that was ignored as it has been many times in the past.
And that trend will accelerate over time
for certain, not decelerate.
And that has all kinds of implications,
one of which is national elections are now everything.
It's always mattered who the president is.
Now it matters more than ever,
because the president has the ability
to act unilaterally in the way we just saw.
So have we exited the Roman Republic
and entered the Roman Empire phase?
Well, I would say if anything,
Tucker's just a couple of decades late on that.
I think we've been in the Empire phase
for quite some time now.
And unfortunately, it's long in the tooth.
And it's the $38.5 trillion in national debt.
Hence the over $1 trillion interest alone on that debt,
probably going to be $2 trillion
by the end of Trump's presidency.
That is extraordinary.
Hence gold being over $4,600 per ounce.
Hence silver being over $85 per ounce.
Hence Bitcoin being once again back above
or north of $90,000, $93,000.
It's, yeah, I mean the currency,
the US dollar is under massive strain,
massive pressure, because in large part,
we have become an empire because we have expended
trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars
of resources in endless war
and endless nation building exercises.
And most disturbingly,
not on behalf of American interests,
but rather on behalf of our greatest ally.
Hence the increasing income inequality.
Hence the floating of the concept
of tariff stimuluses, basically.
They're talking about floating $2,000 to each American.
It's just stimulus, COVID stimulus, just repackaged.
Hence the proposal to cap credit card interest rates at 10%.
Even though price controls ultimately
are deleterious to the economy
and really aren't a solution to the fact
that people are economically illiterate
and they take out, borrow more money than they should.
The truth is that these are all band-aids for bullet wounds,
that the nation, the American populace,
is filled with fatal wounds
as a consequence of central banking and empire
and the GOP, the conservatives,
who should be actually striking the root,
remedying at its core what is creating these problems.
They are more interested in delivering
every possible thing that Israel wants,
every possible thing,
the military industrial complex wants,
every possible thing that the
corporatocracy wants,
while completely abandoning their base,
the Americans, a.k.a. you.
But the good news is that at least
we have these non-interventionist America first stalwarts
like Nick Fuentes,
who are certainly on the right side of history
when it comes to this topic.
It's a movement for right-wing Americans
that want America to have primacy
over the entire planet,
as much power, as much abundance,
as many resources as possible.
So if you're coming around with this nonsense about,
they stole the oil, that's not moral.
They intervened in another country.
You violated their sovereignty.
I don't give a shit.
I don't care at all.
We do it all the time.
This is our world and at the minimum,
this is our half.
This is our half of the world for us
to have uncontested, undisputed,
dominance, military, commercial,
naval, every way, shape, and form.
And we will take what we are entitled to.
We will take what we want.
Nobody can stop us.
And we'll do it again.
And I hope we do.
And I hope we do it in Greenland.
And I hope we do it in Panama.
And I hope we do it in Cuba.
I hope we do it everywhere
where it makes sense for us.
You got a problem with that?
I don't know.
Go back to fucking Pakistan.
America will have primacy over the entire planet.
We will steal and kill as we see fit.
I don't understand how you square that
with a Christian worldview,
but alas, that is Nick Fuentes' position right now.
So I guess his only issue
with the George Bush administration
was that it was a couple thousand miles too far away.
That if it had just been in our hemisphere,
had we just been ultimately destroying
all of Latin America, Nick Fuentes,
and the America First Movement
would have been on board.
Well, count me out on that.
I don't think it's moral,
and I also don't think it's effective.
As evidenced by, I don't know,
every war that we've been sold on
over the past couple decades
that was promised to make us wealthier
and safer and did neither.
But I'm sure Venezuela and Cuba
and Greenland will all be different.
But the good news is, at least,
Alex Jones is on the right side
when it comes to this stuff.
I know you've posted several videos
claiming to show that the Venezuelan people
support what's going on,
but these are the only videos
that I saw posted on your feed.
Let me be 100% clear, not to interrupt you.
I woke up Saturday morning,
saw a video saying it was it,
it was from years ago,
but also anti-moderate protest,
and I posted those,
and I admitted that they were old
and I was wrong, so I make mistakes.
Yes, you admitted the Maduro one
in Venezuela, this one right here,
this was two years ago,
I was in Crocus at that time,
but this was all funded
by the USAID National Endowment
for Democracy during the Biden era.
You posted another video from Chile
and another video
from the FIFA World Cup celebration
in 2022 in Argentina.
Oh no, so I got it all wrong.
So America first,
Christian nationalism
from the Nick Fuentes camp
entails murder and theft.
Been reading the Bible,
didn't see it in there,
but okay, I stand corrected.
And Alex Jones,
the guy fighting the globalists,
is all on board.
I'm guessing he'd be on board
with Cuba too.
I don't know what's happening.
I thought we were all on the same page.
Alex and Nick,
I'm going to send you guys
just some of your contact info.
I'm going to send you guys
a free Afafo shirts,
erinwaterdesigns.com.
You got to get one,
because clearly you're not understanding.
America first and fucking only.
Tell me in the comments
if I'm the one that's lost the plot here.
Is this not what
like the whole
MAGA America first
Trump round two
was supposed to be about
ending the empire,
focusing on domestic issues,
not nation building,
not regime changing,
not fighting wars on behalf of Israel.
And now,
Nick Fuentes,
Donald Trump,
Alex Jones
all seem to think that it's all good.
How?
What?
Did I?
Is it me?
Some?
I mean,
I was doing Union of the Unwanted last night
with Sam Tripoli and a bunch of folks
and there's a good combo.
And, you know,
I was I was basically
people were asking me about like
why my show is doing well
and kind of how I have one foot in
the lane of like
acceptable conspiracy theorizing.
But I'm still like
invited on bigger shows
and how how that works.
And basically what I said was
the way I view it is that
like there are different levels
to how this works.
If you want to be one of the biggest
shows,
well, then you're going to have to
dance around some topics.
You're not going to be able to tell
the truth on everything.
And I try and go on those shows
as a guest and say the things
that they're not allowed to say.
And that's really been what I've
attempted to do
to some level of success
over the past couple of years,
even though I've kind of stopped
getting invited to many of these shows
as of late,
which you can take a guess
as to why that may be.
But regardless,
I think that's really what we're
seeing is this great distillation.
Like all of the people,
the entire right wing,
libertarian, whatever alliance MAGA,
they are all essentially
reanalyzing who is worthwhile,
who is trustworthy.
Who should you actually be
giving the time of day?
I think everyone's going to have
to decide for themselves on that.
I'm not even going to tell you
where you should fall
on Nick Fuentes or Alex Jones.
I will tell you where to fall
on Dan Bongino.
He's an obvious fraud and a liar.
But point being is that
this is healthy.
This is actually the free market
working.
This is actually everybody
getting an opportunity to see
true meritocracy.
Who's telling the most truth?
Who's the least bought?
Who's the least compromised?
And obviously I'm biased,
but I think it's me.
I think I'm the least
least compromised person out there
because I don't have a network.
I have very limited sponsorships
and will never and have never
accepted any sponsorship
that will basically curtail
what topics I'm allowed to talk
about, what I say, how I say it.
Nothing.
Literally nothing.
I will have never
and will never accept that.
There is basically no one,
no one in this world
that can say that.
Almost nobody.
Like there's a dozen
that can actually say,
yeah, I never say something
I don't believe.
Never.
So that's my litmus test.
And maybe this is just
sincere disagreement
between myself and Nick Fuentes
and Alex Jones.
Maybe.
But I'll tell you,
you rewind my tape
over the past five years
when it comes to being
a non-interventionist.
You're going to get
very consistent messaging.
It doesn't matter
what war we're talking about.
I don't want to be involved.
I want us to be
withdrawing
and focusing on domestic issues.
When it comes to
Alex and Nick,
well, certainly
when there are wars
directly adjacent to Israel,
they've been decent.
But when it comes to
all of the others,
not so much.
So you can rewind the tape.
Is it putting America first?
It's a sincere question.
Is it putting America first
to regime change in Iran?
Are you 100% confident
that our CIA actions
or the bombing campaign
which is, in my opinion,
very likely to come
from the Trump administration
within Iran over the next week
or so,
is it guaranteed
to create not only
a better circumstance
for the people of Iran,
but also and most importantly,
better for us Americans,
the people who will be fighting
and possibly dying
in that conflict
or the American taxpayer
who will be funding it
regardless of how it plays out.
Will it decrease inflation?
Will it bring justice
when it comes to the Epstein files
or the COVID era
or any of the other injustice
that we've suffered over the past decade?
Does it defeat the woke mind virus?
Does it make housing more affordable?
Does it make it so that it's easier
for young people
to get married
and have children
and settle down?
Does it do any of those things?
And I think the answer
is quite evidently,
no.
No, it doesn't.
Does it help the military industrial complex?
Yes, does it help
the Trump administration
and their relationship
with the Israeli government?
Certainly.
Does it help Mark Levin
and Ben Shapiro?
Sure.
So I'll ask you,
why is it
that Nick Fuentes
and Alex Jones
seem to be on board?
I don't know.
I can't answer that for you,
but it's disturbing
and it's up to you to decide.
Level of massacre
has been unbelievable.
Unfortunately,
the regime is with no pity
using military machinery,
AK-47s to shoot
to death protesters.
Morgues are overfilled.
Despite all of that,
these brave kids
are still on the street.
A doctor reported to us
that she had a young patient
that came in
with her face being shot
by bullet-ridden.
And she said to the doctor,
patch me up.
I want to go back to the streets.
I'm going to keep fighting
until we are saved.
And I want
our leader, Reza Palavi,
to return home to save us all.
This is the level of commitment
you see in Iran today.
That's Reza Palavi,
the son of the Shah,
and spent his entire life in America.
But he is allegedly
the frontrunner
to be the new leadership
within Iran,
assuming that
the existing regime falls.
You've got Laura Loomer
and Lindsey Graham
and Randy Fine
and all of the
usual suspects
that are
absolutely apoplectic.
Now is the time,
Donald Trump.
You must move on Iran.
You said you'd have their back.
Well, it's not just them saying it.
Donald Trump just posted this an hour ago.
Iranian patriots,
keep protesting.
Take over your institutions.
Save the names of the killers
and abusers.
They will pay a big price.
I have canceled all meetings
with Iranian officials
until the senseless killing
of protesters stops.
Help is on its way.
Mega, President Donald J. Trump.
So riots,
which are obviously being
orchestrated
or at least organized,
funded to some extent
from outside enforces,
intel agencies,
they are now being told
by the President of the United States
not to stop
because the people
that are shooting at you
will pay a massive price.
But I don't,
I'll just be totally straight with you.
That is not my nation,
not my people,
and ultimately not my concern.
I wish them well,
but I have no interest
in having the President
of my country
dictate riots
or protests
or however you want to frame it
in another nation.
I have no interest in it.
It would be different
if we weren't involved at all,
but we've been sanctioning
the Iranian regime
for,
I don't even know how long,
viciously so for a decade,
but it could be decades.
I'm not sure.
We've had Netanyahu
talking to our Congress
on TV,
on the news
everywhere
for decades
saying,
this is the head of the snake,
they must fall.
This is not about American interests.
This is not about American safety,
security,
prosperity,
none of the above.
This is about a foreign
country's interests.
And as far as I'm concerned,
anyone giving lip service
in defense of our involvement
is at minimum misguided
and at maximum
a traitor to this country.
And I mean that sincerely.
And I'll be called a panicking
and a black pillar.
And you know,
I'll be mocked
if this doesn't end up going as badly
as it possibly could.
I hope to be mocked.
I hope to be wrong.
I hope that Trump
doesn't actually follow up
with either a bombing campaign
or an invasion of Iran.
But I'm going to voice my opposition
now while it matters
and take that risk
because that's the only chance
I have of actually making a difference.
Getting enough public outcry
to make them think twice
before they proceed
with this bombing campaign
and or invasion
is our only opportunity
to stop them.
Because as we all know
once it starts
it's 10 times
maybe a thousand times harder to stop.
So let them know.
If you disagree
with this course of action
it is your opportunity
if not obligation to say so.
And I hope you will.
And they've been talking about Iran
since 2001.
Iran.
And in Long Island
you know during the Iraq War
when everyone including me
thought that was a great idea
of course my defense is that
I was 17 and uncocaine.
Um you know
you would bump into people
and dunk in donuts
and they would go
yeah the real problems are ran
they're gonna go into Iran
after Iraq
that's where they're gonna go to Iran.
Because these people
these gremlins
these creatures
that that walk the earth
have been filled with the idea
that in order to stop that
we need a major war.
This is what we've sold
all these people by the way
we've sold them this idea
that like all of the threats
that you're going to encounter
in your life
are from outside of the country
and it's caves.
There are these people in caves
plotting to destroy it
but they're also really super
sophisticated
and brilliant
and in caves
but really smart
and they're religious fundamentalists
but also futuristic tech geniuses.
Are you 17 and uncocaine?
No me neither.
So I think uh
I think it's our obligation
to oppose this one
as I'm sure
many of you
would like to have opposed
the Iraq invasion.
Let's not go down that path again.
Huh could we focus on this country?
Just once.
Just fucking
once in my life.
Could we do that?
Two episodes on a row now
I'm gonna end
with shouting out
giving props to Meg and Kelly.
And only now Tucker have I
begun to say like
wait a minute.
How much of the narrative
that is in our news today
has been spoon-fed to me
by people who are super pro-Israel
at all costs
who won't tell the truth about Israel
no matter what it is
and will cancel you
if you don't
don't befriend
or de-friend people who do.
And so this whole thing has made me
reevaluate
like I'm just starting from square one
basically on Israel right now.
And I'm actually day by day
taking a much harder look at
who are they
what do they do
how do I find real information
on what happened in this foreign Gaza
that I will trust
because I do know I'm being propagandized
by both sides.
All of it.
So I think it's a fair question
and I'm sort of in my own search mode.
This is the level of deep thinking
that everybody ought to be doing.
Once you recognize you've been lied to
for a very very long time
your only choice is to
A. Stop listening to the people who lied to you
you should start there.
B. Think for yourself a little bit
pause
pause and think more critically.
And then actually learn the lessons
of the prior mistakes.
And it seems as if
there are certain people out there
making Kelly being one of them
Tucker Carlson being another
that are actually learning the lessons
of the mistakes of the past couple
decades.
And all I can ask of all of you
is to do the same.
And I think that's a that's a healthy
process and it actually
could create a prosperous
tomorrow.
But only if we have the courage to do so
only if we have the courage
to look in the mirror
and to question ourselves
but also to discard those
that are trying to influence you
down a path of destruction.
And I hope you will.
I'd rather die than do that.
And now that they've made that
the stakes
of my so-called friendships with them
I really won't do it.
Now I don't know I don't care
what anybody says like
I'll never do it now.
Even if I had actual disagreements
that I otherwise would raise
hell no
because I'm not raising the fist
and saying BLM at the table
and I'm not bending the knee to
these bullies
who think they can control me.

And last but not least,
remember
that the entire reason
as Charlie Kirk described
the entire reason
that Iran is in the condition
that it is in
is because of the overthrow
in 53
and then the Shah
the guy who we installed
fell via counterrevolution in the 70s
and ever since then
it's been held for the people there.
What must be done with Iran
is we must remember
that we the American government
are the reason why Iran is radical.
We did this.
They had a democratically elected
leader that we did not like.
I believe his name was Mossad Day
and we didn't like him
because he wanted to nationalize the oil
specifically the Brits didn't like it.
Fifty.
This is before the show.
Yes, he was very popular.
And look right there.
Even in Wikipedia.
1953 Iranian coup d'etat
aided by intelligence agencies
of the UK and United States.
We're got it.
Okay.
So then we put the Shah back in
who was sick
and unpopular
meaning he was actually suffering.
Physically sick.
And we paved the way
for the most radical elements
of Islam for many decades.
So this began in 53.
People want you to
only remember recent history.
They don't want you to go that far back.
Weird.
Weird how they don't want you to go back
to 53 or 48.
Those years we don't talk about.
It's only stuff after that.
So prior interventions create blowback.
That's the lesson.
And if you think you're going to intervene
in Iran and not have blowback
not have domestic consequences
you're simply not thinking deeply enough.
The intervention in Iran
has nothing to do with your interests.
Nothing.
Unless you have relatives that live there
then maybe.
But other than that
literally nothing is on behalf
of a foreign government
not your own.
And as such
if you believe in America first
you really don't have any choice
but to reject it.
But instead of leaving on a
serious note
let's leave on a
seriously bad ass distracted
Dan Bonchino.
I'll see you guys next time.
You remember that big bad alpha boy
Tough Guy act.
Yeah.
That Jeffrey Epstein story
is a big deal.
Please do not let that story go.
Keep your eye on it.

He had keys to the curtain
