What is wrong with registering people to vote? Who could be against that?
The Government Accountability Institute just discovered that one of the most notorious Chinese gangsters, a man known as “White Wolf,” was somehow left off a 2021 executive order by President Joe Biden listing persons and companies sanctioned against doing business here. That may be because “White Wolf” has connections. Peter Schweizer and co-host Eric Eggers welcome Price Sukhia, the GAI researcher who made this discovery, to the most recent episode of The Drill Down. Price’s article, linked ab...
Election integrity usually revolves around ballot access, the handling of absentee ballots, and voter ID. But beyond the issues of “ballot harvesting,” there’s another means of tampering with elections – Big Tech censorship, much of it done by Google, the dominant search engine on the internet. Outkick’s Bobby Burack joins Peter and Eric to discuss.
The revelations about China’s “cognitive warfare on America found in Peter Schweizer’s newest book, “Blood Money,” continue to spur action in Washington. In the past week, the House Government Oversight Committee has announced an investigation into China’s ongoing efforts to infiltrate and influence the US. And the full House just overwhelmingly passed a bill that would force the owners of TikTok to divest the online app or be banned in the US. That bill moves to the Senate where its prospects a...
“Peter Schweizer's new book names China’s fentanyl strategy after a Chinese proverb: "Murder with a borrowed knife." On this week’s episode of The Drill Down, Schweizer and co-host Eric Eggers speak to Derek Maltz, the former Special Agent in Charge of Special Operations at the Department of Justice and the Chief of the New York Drug Enforcement Task Force. In his work, Maltz saw that "borrowed knife" from the sharp end. Maltz has high praise for Schweizer's book, saying, "I was so excited to se...
“Watch a fire from across the river.” China has been busy sowing and fanning social division in the Unted States. It is part of their war strategy to undermine America’s social fabric and there are several different fronts in that war. On the latest episode of The Drill Down, host Peter Schweizer and co-host Eric Eggers take us through the battle plans and show us some of their tactics.
Blood Money China's Role in the Fentanyl Crisis
The Drill Down crew from the Government Accountability Institute is back behind the mic to talk about the latest on James Biden, a failed healthcare company, and a shady $200,000 "loan." James Biden testified before the House Oversight Committee this week as part of the ongoing GOP investigation into the Biden family influence-peddling scheme.
Will Peter's New Book Shake Up the Biden Campaign?
The cultural Marxism that wrecked so many of our universities claimed another victim: America’s spies. That is the premise for a powerful new book on the CIA and the FBI that takes on the question: how they went from being Cold War heroes to deep state villains? Author Michael Waller, himself a longtime veteran of the intelligence world, has just published a book called Big Intel, He joins Peter and Eric on the DrillDown to discuss his time in El Salvador with the CIA in the 1980s, and the state...

Newt Gingrich: Left Wants to Eliminate American History, Raise Kids to Despise Their Own Country
Election fraud – even the suspicion of it – is poisonous to democracy. That is the stated reason why Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is bringing a case against former President Donald Trump in Georgia under the anti-racketeering statute known as RICO that was written to go after criminal gangs.
Former House Speaker John Boehner is one of politicians who cash in after leaving office. In Boehner’s case, he opposed all efforts to legalize cannabis while he was in Congress, then promptly went into business as a pro-marijuana lobbyist, earning millions pushing for legalized pot around the country. So, fresh off spending the holidays watching sports and all the commercial tie-ins for legalized sports betting, Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers open the first episode of The Drill Down for 2024 b...
Young people at our nation’s colleges and universities are not as radical and left-wing as the media would have you believe, but it’s not for a want of trying by woke administrators and radical faculty members. That’s the take of New College of Florida president Richard Corcoran and former Wisconsin governor Scott Walker. They joined Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers who guest-hosted Sean Hannity’s radio show this week. In the battle for free speech on campus, both Walker and Corcoran want to go o...
Climate Hypocrites Say We Have One Year Left.... AGAIN
Follow the Money and Apply the Law to The Biden Family
As Israel exchanges Palestinian criminals and terrorists for innocent Israelis taken captive by Hamas during the 10/7 massacres, we learned that at least one American was among the freed hostages – a four-year-old little girl named Abigail Edan. Abigail’s parents were murdered by Hamas during the attack. This is welcome news, of course, and President Joe Biden took some personal credit for her release, but there’s an interesting coincidence that the Drill Down’s hosts Peter Schweizer and Eric Eg...
The Best Holiday Movies Throwing Money Out of a Helicopter And the Gov Wants to Kill Switch Cars
The people who want you to “just eat the bugs” are controlling more than you think. Some call them “global elites.” But author Seamus Bruner offers a better description for them: Controligarchs. Bruner exposes the billionaires who control the levers of power that dominate every aspect of your life. He joins Peter Schweizer and co-host Eric Eggers on the latest episode of The Drill Down podcast to discuss fake meat, patented seeds, and the dark forces who are profiting from the world’s blind rush...
Elections, Investigations and Prosecutions Have Consequences
What do Hamas, fentanyl, North Korea, China, and the US debt have in common? They are all funded in part by a cryptocurrency called Tether Tether is now the world’s most heavily traded cryptocurrency by volume. The stablecoin, also known as USDT, maintains a 1:1 exchange ratio with the dollar. It is the main way Hamas has been funded by Iran and other terrorist sympathizers around the globe.
Despite Joe Biden’s mumbling and stumbling, the checkered pasts of brothers Frank and James Biden, and the lurid, embarrassing details found on Hunter Biden’s laptop documenting his drug addictions and frequenting of prostitutes, the Biden family “actually run a very sophisticated and, I would argue, criminal enterprise that is designed to extract wealth and to leverage Joe’s power, but to keep him at arm’s length so that it is harder to connect him to it,” says investigative journalist Peter Sc...
The massacre of more than 1,300 Israelis by Hamas terrorists still outrages most of the world. The focus on Hamas, Hezbollah, and their deep ties to Iran exposes the brutality of all three, and Israel’s fearsome, ongoing response enjoys broad support. But the role played by Iran is complex, deadly, and insidious, as explained by Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers on the most recent episode of The Drill Down.
With the US House of Representatives selecting a new Speaker, Peter Schweizer reminds us that the choice was never about policy. “The speakership is all about money,” Schweizer says on the most recent episode of The Drill Down. “It’s an open secret.”
“The Department of Energy is being weaponized to reward the political supporters of the administration,” Peter Schweizer concludes on the most recent episode of The Drill Down. With the government poised at the brink of a shutdown last week, the Department of Energy (DoE) last week doled out another batch of “green energy” spending on projects in eleven states. This is a portion of a $2.3 billion program the Biden administration created to advance its clean-energy drive, according to the Wall St...
Count Peter Schweizer among the “doubters” of the Biden administration’s choice of former Commerce Secretary and major Democratic donor Penny Pritzker to lead U.S. efforts to channel private sector reconstruction assistance to Ukraine. Pritzker, the heir to the Hyatt Hotels fortune and a real estate mogul herself, was corrupt and self-dealing during her commerce department tenure under President Barack Obama, which Schweizer documented in a 12-page chapter of his book, Secret Empires.
Founded by former President Bill Clinton and his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the foundation put its annual “Clinton Global Initiative” on a hiatus for a few years when their relevance ebbed and fundraising dried up, but their scandal-plagued charity has returned with a plan to provide humanitarian relief to warn-torn Ukraine, complete with a benediction from Pope Francis. The Clinton Foundation’s shady dealings were exposed in 2015 by Peter Schweizer in the bestselling book ...
