BIDEN Gets Played By Saudis As The Biden Economy Takes Another Hit, plus FBI Shocks The Courtroom With FISA Warrant Admission

them to produce more oil. They pretty much laughed at him, and then they said we're gonna cut. He said, please, don't cut until after the midterms. Just give me one more month. I want you to look at this clip and tell me what you think. Let's get straight why I went. I didn't go to about oil. I want about making sure that we made sure that we weren't going to walk away from the Middle East and what

was going on. And by the way, today I just got off the telephone with the President of I got off the with the Prime Minister of Israel and the President of Lebanon. They've worked out a deal. They've been at war, declared war with one another for a long time. They've worked out a body relationship along the eastern Mediterranean for oil, and then they're going to make an agreement that is historic. We also got over flights for Israeli

planes over Saudi Arabia. We got movement in terms of how we would deal in the Middle East with aggression from Iran. But it wasn't you know, the eight other there are eight other parties there. It wasn't about It wasn't about oil, all right. So he averted war four right because we're at war war three right now from last week his comments and then he says, well, all right, we're sorry the gas prices are gonna be high, but I didn't go over there to talk about oil production.

They've clearly come out saying, yeah, you did, and you begged us to stop at least until after the mid terms. I think, if I remember the media correctly, they used to call this a quid pro quo, and I'm pretty sure they try to impeach a president of the United States of America for exactly what he just did with a foreign leader with Ukraine. His name was Donald Trump. Your thoughts, look every word Biden just said there is inaccurate. Most of it's a flat outlie. Let's start backwards. Let's

start with the second thing. He says, Oh, there's an historic deal between Israel and Lebanon. Let me tell you what's going on there. Israel and Lebanon have been having a dispute over water rights where there are significant natural gas reserves, and Israel has been demanding for years that it deserves a percentage of it. What Biden just did is strong armed our friend and ally, Israel to give one hundred percent of the rights to that natural gas

to Lebanon and Hezbollah to give it to terrorists. And this is the Biden patterns, screw your friends and help our enemies. And it is disgraceful that Biden is strong arming Israel to undermine its own security, its own energy, secure its own national security, to flood cash to terrorists who will then use that cash to build rockets to murder israelis. Now, let's take the first part. He says, I went to Saudi Arabia, but it wasn't for oil.

I'm reminded of two letters, the first of whiches be the second, which is s. And since this is a family friendly, family friendly show. Will leave it at the abbreviation. But what like, like, how did lightning not strike him when he said that he went there to grovel on

oil prices. And the stunning thing is what has happened subsequently, which is the Saudi's put out a formal statement and the form and this was amazing, by the way, because I think what it says is not only was Saudi Arabia not willing to quit pro quo and play games, they wanted to stick it to him and show the rest of the world. I think, really, how weak amer kids,

And that's bad for all of us. I've always said this, I always root for American national defense and foreign policy to be strong, and what they're doing is literally mocking us and saying your presence a liar in the process of putting this a letter out, well, and let me let me hit this point. But then I want to step back and give a little bit of a foreign policy framework for how we should be thinking about this.

But let me just read from the from Saudi Arabia's official I'm you know, I'm holding like this is you know, you know, the Government of Saudi Arabia on letter classified document everybody, Just so you know, it is not classified. It it I did get it from Hillary Clinton's email server.

But but all right, so so here's here is one portion there says the Government of the Kingdom clarified through its continuous communication with the US administration that all economic analysis indicate that postponing the OPEC plus decision for a month, according to what has been suggested, would have had negative economic consequences. Now what does that mean? Number one, it meant Biden was there begging for them to try to keep oil prices low. But number two, what is really damning?

He wasn't there advocating on behalf of US consumers. Hey, you know mom is hurting right now when she takes the kids to school and fills up her minivan. Hey, working Americans are getting killed when they're paying a hundred hundred and fifty bucks to fill up their truck. He didn't care about that at all. He said, can I have one month? Can I have? Oh, let me pick a date till November eighth. The thing to understand, Joe Biden and every Democrat in Congress, they want your gasoline

prices not as high as they are now. They want them much much higher, and what he was there was begging for a campaign contribution. Let's be clear what that was. And the biggest one you can get your hands on literally billions of dollars people winning and losing. The Democrats.

He's over there saying, I need you to help me have something good on election day, where at least we maybe hold the set or of the House, because he knows this is the last card he's got to play and it's for one month, so he wants to deceive the American people. And the thing to understand, let me

take it at a couple of different levels. Number one, Joe Biden, when he was campaigning for president, he repeatedly promised that he was going to shut down US oil and gas production, shut down drilling on federal lands on shore, shutdown drilling on federal lands offshore. And he's followed through with that. So you know, when Joe Biden was sworn in as president, the average price of gasoline was two

dollars and nine cents a gallon. It spiked all the way up to four dollars and forty eight cents a gallon, more than doubling. It's now dropped slightly. The current average today is three dollars and ninety one cents a gallon. Now, if you look at what happened between two o eight and where we are now, the first day in office, January twentieth, Biden shuts down the Keystone Pipeline. Then on January twenty seven, seven days later, Biden halt's new oil

and gas leases on federal land. Then on February nineteenth, Biden rejoins the Paris Climate Agreement. And by the way, if you can see the chart here, you can see gas prices are going up at each decision. May seventh, Biden takes thirty percent of land and makes it off limit to oil and gas thirty percent of federal land. Boom gone no longer in the market. Then on June one, twenty twenty one, Biden halts drilling in an Noir, the

incredibly petroleum rich section of Alaska. Then on June thirtieth, Congress reverses Trump's natural gas regulations, which made it easier to drill for natural gas. Then on October seventh, you can see the price came still going up the entire time. Every American's been filling this in the pump the entire time. October seventh, Biden reverses Trump's NIPA regulations, which again made

it easier to explore. On October twenty ninth, the Interior begins imposing as a regulation the quote social cost of carbon to make it more expensive for Americans to drill for oil and gas than. On November fifteenth, Biden issues a moratorium on oil drilling in Chaco Canyon. Then on February twenty fifth is when Russian invades Ukraine. Now, if you happen to be watching, you can see from here

to here that entire increase was from the Biden regulatory policies. Now, to be sure, when Russian invaded Ukraine and we're not, gas prices went up some more, but it had gone up the vast bulk of that before that. Russian invades Ukraine. But then what happens. On March first, Biden begins releasing oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. On March twenty first, the sec the Securities in Exchange Commission, proposes an anti

oil ruled cut off equity financing for oil expiy. On May twelfth of twenty twenty two, Biden cancels yet more lease sales. The effect of all of this. There are literally over twenty regulatory decisions they put in place designed to drive the cost of gasoline hired. Mark my words, if Joe Biden and Schumer and Pelosi get their way, gasoline is not going to be four dollars a Gallot's not going to be five or six or seven as

it is in California. It is going to be ten, and then it's going to be twelve, and then it's going to be twenty. I gotta go back in history and you'll remember this, and I think people need to understand. When he was the vice president, Barack Obama and his energy leaders in his administration said quote, we need to get oil prices gas price in America the same way as they are in Europe to force people into green and alternative energy, electric cars, solar, the list goes on

and on. And when they said that back when Obama is present, that would have put American gas at five dollars plus a gallon. My point being that was years ago, now, a decade ago, when this was said, and that was their policy because they sell by the leader over in Europe, not by the gallon, And if you did the math, then it was like five eighty to six dollars a gallon in Europe when they said that statement, that means

what you're saying now, it's spot on it. They want eight dollars, nine dollars ten dollars a gallon gas and go to this election day. If you think it's bad, now, it's going to be really bad because number one, they're shutting down the extra millions of barrels up from the strategic oal reserves they're supposed to be that's going to be cut off. And you have OPEC reducing their production by two million barrels a day. What does this look

like for the average American? You understand this stuff better than anybody, especially when it comes to our strategic oal reserves, because we're gonna have to actually now go on the marketplace and buy stuff. Yeah, so let me give you some amazing stats. So we have strategic petroleum reserves, and that's oil, not gasoline, oil that we keep underground, and it's designed if we go to war, if we're in a crisis and suddenly our energy is cut off. We

don't want the American economy to shut down. And that's why Congress funded it and why we have it so that so that America has this reservoir. When Biden was sworn into office, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve was six hundred and thirty eight million, eighty five thousand barrels of oil. That's a lot of oil. Six hundred thirty eight million. Today, you know what it is. What is it now? Four hundred and sixteen million barrels of oil as of September thirtieth.

He has depleted the supply by thirty five percent. Now let me tell you something else. Amazing. All right. When Trump was president, remember oil prices cratered, they went incredibly low. Trump proposed, hey, this is a great opportunity. Let's fill the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the cheat with oil prices that are incredibly low. You know what happened. Democrats and Congress blocked it. They said, no, no, no, no, do not buy oil cheap for the United States of America. We

don't want it, and they blocked it. Chuck Schumer blocked it and filibustered it. Biden as part of this deal with Saudi Arabia, here's what he told Saudi Arabia, Hey, if you produce a bunch of oil between now an election day, for one month, I will promise that if oil hits seventy five dollars, a barrel will fill this spro with it. In other words, he cut a deal. I'm gonna go raid the US taxpayers to pay the Saudi's a crap ton of money in order to try

to buy political deception. The thing to understand, listen, the reason Biden and Schumer and every Democrat in Congress wants high gasoline prices is they think the American consumers are morons. They don't like the choices that people make. They don't like that that. I don't know. What do you? What do you drive? I have a four door Porsche Panamera. Okay, so here you drive fast. Listen. It's got one hundred thousand miles on it. But I'm a fast You're failing,

you know. I'm a very common man Porsche driver. Look. Look, I saw sixteen candles. I saw the kid leading on his poor So you don't This is you and I get to know each other. Laugh. I literally bought a pors nine four four in high school and redid it for twenty eight hundred dollars and fell in love with it. Now, the car. When I bought it, the guy I bought it from was angry because he had a brand new German shepherd who ripped the seats up while I went

to Kroger, and he pulled up and I taught. I taught tennis, and so I was literally fifteen, about to be sixteen when happened. And I love this car. He played for the Cowboys. It was his first car he ever bought in nineteen eighty five eighty six, and so it was his baby. And he came up. He was furious. He comes yelling at He's like Ferguson. He goes how much money you have? And I was like on me, He was like, no, in your bank account. I was like,

I have thirty one hundred dollars. He's like, bring twenty one hundred dollars in my house at Cheers And I showed up and the seats had just been ripped to shreds by a brand new car. That was my second car. My first was a Honda Prelude with one hundred and eighty seven thousand miles on it that didn't have a C and I paid twenty two hundred for that, and I was proud of it. My friend so Sam a commoner when it comes to cars. So back to Saudi Arabia.

What Biden wants because they're mad that lots of Americans like suburbans, lots of Americans like pickup trucks, lots of Americans like minivans. They don't like the choices you're making. Yeah, and so their strategy is, let's make it so god awful painful that it's just miserable that you can't afford. You can't afford to go to work, you can't afford to take your kids to school, and they're going to

force you to get a little prius and obey. And really what they'd like to do is take your car away and force you to be on on some subway or train, some electric trains somewhere. But they're gonna take and mind you, they're going to fly private jets while they try to make your life miserable and take away the car you choose. So this is all deliberate, But I got to say what Biden did here, I actually find really offensive that you go and negotiate and say

give me one months as a political stunt. Sure, and I mentioned I wanted to give some sort of broader political overview. So I've talked about in foreign policy. I divide the country, the world into into four different groups. We have friends, we have allies. We have friends, we have enemies, we have competitors, and then we have what I call problematic allies. Now what is a problematic ally the main countries that fall into that are Saudi Arabia,

Turkey and Pakistan. Now those three countries, all of them are allies. We want to be friends with them. It's important to be friends with them. Their geopolitical reasons, economic reasons to be friends with them. But they've got real challenges. Their leadership is problematic, their human rights records are problematic, they do things to undermine us interest and so they're they're allies with significant issues. Now the Saudis, you got

to understand what Biden has done. Biden and the Democrats hate the Saudis. Why do they hate the Saudis because they love Iran. It's bizarre. Biden's top foreign policy objective is to cut a nuclear deal with a Ran. Saudi is Iran's major counterbalance. And so look, I think we want to be friends and allies with the Saudi's, principally because Saudi Arabia is a major counter check to Iran, and Iran is led by an Ayatol who wants to murder us, and so I want the one thing they're

consistent on, it's death to America. Does it bother you? And it bothered me when I saw this. Let her come out from the Saudis from a standpoint that they played him. Yeah, and he should have known going in that they were going to play him. Does that concern you that he's making decisions because it's obvious they said we're gonna play you, and we're gonna mock you, we're

gonna embarrass you. And that's exactly what they did. Because I don't like it when we lose on the as I said earlier on the foreign stage on saying that's important, but it wasn't just they said no to him. It's that they literally said, we're gonna embarrass the United States of America in the process. When the commander in chief is weak, it's bad for America. And this commander in chief is the weakest we've ever seen. I mean, I mean,

he's unfortunately a laughing stock. And ideologically, what this White House has decided to do literally so foreign policy, they don't have a foreign policy. They view it as a projection of domestic policy. So they divide countries into red countries and blue countries. Sure, and red countries or every country that was friends with US when Trump was president, and blue countries are every countries that was any enemies of US. So they view as red countries Israel, so

they screw Israel every chance they get. The United Kingdom, so they screw the UK every chance they get Guatemala, Colombia, which used to have a pro American, strong free market presidency. What did they do? They win in and undermined it and ended up electing a leftist, anti American former terrorist to be the new leader of Columbia. India the largest democracy on Earth, pivoting very directly to the United States, enormously good for our interest. What is Biden doing threatening

to sanction India? It is idiotic. Like every country we want to be leaning towards US, they're trying to drive away and there Saudi Arabia falls into that camp. And so they Biden on the campaign trail promise, said I'm going to make Saudi Arabia a pariah. He flew to Saudi Arabia, groveled before the leadership, but also insulted them and ridiculed them to their face. It's not surprising that when you go and you treat people like crap, this is what you get. They reciprocate and the flip side.

You look at our enemies, you look at countries like Iran and North Korea and Venezuela and Cuba. Biden bends over backwards to give them billions of dollars. Now, let me give you a different story about Saudi Arabia. Trump is president, the economy's booming, but then we hit COVID. Global demand drops and you may remember oil prices plummeted. Yeah, in fact, they fell negative at one point. It's something we may never seen the rest of our life. You

couldn't give away oil during that moment in time. It was the weirdest thing I've ever seen. So at that time, the Saudis joined with Russia and they decided to flood the world market with oil to drive prices crushingly low. So I joined with ten other senators in condemning the Saudis, and I actually got on the phone with a Saudi foreign minister and the Saudi ambassador and chewed them out.

And the eleven of US were all pro oil and gas senators who are big believers in American energy independence. And look the problem with what they were doing. Why were they flooding the market because they wanted to bankrupt every American producer. They wanted to put America out of the business of oil and gas so they could corner the market and be the only producers left. And so people understand, in America, there's a certain price. If you

drop below that, you start basically losing money. And then if you go even lower than that, you start shutting down production in America exactly. And then when you start shutting down, it costs millions even to go back online and to start reproducing. And that's what OPEC was at the time that you're mentioning is they basically said, Okay, we don't like this American energy independence policy of Donald Trump.

We sure as hell don't like the fact that we're making less money because they're producing and now we're communing. You know, we're competing. So if we flood the market, they'll start losing money, they'll shut down their production, they'll shut down everything the domestic production in America, and then we'll eventually win. That's why you were yelling at the

yes and the way the economics work. If oil prices are between say fifty and sixty dollars a barrel, or maybe fifty and sixty five dollars a barrel, US producers, with the technology we have, can produce, can be profitable. And that's what produces two dollars gallon gasol. Right is at that level everything's great in the world. It's America is the world's energy superpower. When oil is fifty sixty

sixty five dollars a barrel. What the Saudis and Russians saw is when demand was plummeting, they wanted to crash the market, to make everyone go bankrupt so they'd be the only ones left in the market. And I gotta tell you. I got on the phone and lit them up, and I said, look, we have been the strongest friends of Saudi Arabia. In the United States Senate, the Democrats already hate you. If you want to drive us away and be alone, you're in real trouble. And I'll tell you.

Trump called him and shoot him out, and they change course that they pulled back when he said I'm going to fight back. He wasn't bluffing but when you treat people decently, when they behave badly, you can call him to account when you've done as Biden has done, which is undermine them from day one. Look, the Saudis are screwing Joe Biden. They want to screw Joe Biden. But let's be clear. He wasn't asking them do something the American people's interest and make gasoline affordable to people who

are struggling. He was saying, give me thirty days of a fake artificial price drop, because he thinks the voters are really stupid and that they won't notice that if gasoline dropped fifty cents. His useful idiots will say, look, Joe Biden, achieve this, and then the day after election day, get ready for five to six, seven, eight, nine, ten dollars a gallon gasoline. This brings me back to another clip I want you to listen to, and that is the Present saying he still believes that we're not going

to have this recession. Take a listen to this. There's no guarantee that you're going to I don't think there will be a recession. If it is, it will be a very slight recession, that is, will move down slightly. I'm not rooting for a recession, right, but you got to look at the facts, and the facts say, if you look at what we've always said, the traditional definition of a recession is center we're in it right now. Everybody on Wall Street saying we're in it right now.

The only people they're actually it's not happening are these idiots. And He's sitting there going, I don't think it's going to happen. I mean, you know we're in a recession. I think everybody else knows it. So look, you and I in college, we both took economics one on one. When you take econ one on one, they give you the definition of a recession. The dea an issue for recession. For as long as we've been alist has never changed

is two consecutive quarters of negative economic growth. That defines a recession. We have had two consecutive quarters of negative economic growth. If we were dealing with the English language, if we were dealing with the planet Earth, everyone would say we are in a recession right now. The Biden White House realizes, wait a second, saying that Joe Biden became president, we went into a recession. That's kind of bad. Politically. So they brought a few economists together to literally redefine

the word recession. They said, no longer means that. They said, recession now means whatever this panel of economists and the government says it does. And they haven't said this is a recession and it is, George Orwell will be proud. They simply define the word that it's not recession. It's happy, feel good bunny rabbits is what they call it. And so Biden says we're not in a recession. Why because

I paid people to say we're not. Never mind the facts. Look, you know, as you know, I'm doing this bus tour all across the country, and so I was doing a bunch of radio interviews yesterday. We're going to be in Kansas City on Friday, and one of the hosts there said, well, what should the people of Missouri know about about why they should vote Republican in November? I said, it ain't complicated.

It's pretty simple. Ask yourself the question, is your family better off now than they were before Biden became president? And for just about every family in America, the answers not just no, it's hell no. Like every aspect of life from inflation, the cost of everything has gone up, crime, illegal immigration, the mess of it is across the board,

and they know that. And what they're counting on is the dishonest corporate media to lie on their behalf and to accept we're not in a recession because Biden said they are. You know, it's like obi wan Kenobe, these are not the droids you're looking for, and the corporate media is more than happy decos. I think seniors are going to be a really big issue in the selection. I had a caller that called end of the day. He's on a fixed income, he only makes X summer dollars.

He knows this planning for retirement so important. And he said he met with his financial advice of the day. He was six months away when Trumps left office from retirement. They now told the other day's gonna have to work probably another five years. That is taking away someone's holy grail part of life, retirement. And he said, I will show up, he said, but he said this, He said, but Ben, it's not just me. It is everybody I work with, it's on a fixed income that are saying

we will show up in the mid terms. And I know you've seen this on the road because you just took away five years of my life. Well, and let me say that guy is pissed, and he's a right to be pissed, but he's actually lucky because he's still working a group that's getting hit even harder, or seniors have already retired. Let's say you've made a decision. You worked for thirty forty years, you've saved, you've been responsible, you've got a four oh one K, you've got an IRA,

you've got retirement saving. Joe Biden and the Democrats take over, and your four oh one K has dropped what twenty twenty five percent, thirty maybe forty percent, depending on how you were invested. So the nest egg that was going to keep you through your your golden years is worth a ton less. And at the same time, every single one of your costs has skyrocketed, whether it's electricity or healthcare, or rent or mortgages or lumber, gasling, everything has gone up.

That combination, if you're seventy five years old and retired and you're looking at your four oh one case saying, okay, how do we last another? I don't know how long are we gonna live? Five ten, twenty years. Those folks are scared and they're pissed, and despite Biden's best effort, they know who's responsible for it. Center. I want to switch gears to another story that I think is a really important one and it came out of court this week, and I just want people, I want to make sure

I get this right. The four or the FBI offered former British spy Christopher Steele up to a million bucks if he could prove the claims that his infamous dotsier paid for by literally Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee was you know, and their words quote original and legitimate. Now he couldn't do it. And there's an interestingt tweet I want you to look at here that I also thought was something that's important. The Steel FBI

meeting was on October the third, twenty sixteen. Now pay attention to these dates, everybody, because this is telling you how corrupt the FBI was at the highest levels. The FBI's first surveillance warrant on Carter Page, the spy on him and by defaulty Trump campaign, was then filed on October the twenty first. This means that after the FBI offered Steele one million to prove as Dalcia was authentic. Right,

he couldn't do it. The FBI still forward filed a surveillance horn't based on the dossier anyway, and even see it in They are even saying this in their own tweets. Shortly before the twenty sixteen election, the FBI offered retired British spy Christopher Steel up to one million to prove the explosive allegations in his dossier about Donald Trump. A senior FBI analyst didn't leak this center he testified it.

I was in shock by this because they knew that this was a lie, and they still used the lie to go spy on not only Carter Page but the entire basically anyone he talked to in the Trump campaign. So there are a couple of things that are really stunning on this. Number one, the hard left wing partisans

who burrowed into the career positions at the FBI. They hated Trump so much that they were willing to pay literally a million dollars, I mean, holy cal a million bucks of tax dollar money, of tax dollar money to dig up dirt on him and Christopher Steele. This guy was dishonest. He was discredited. The FBI had previously fired him. As you know, my next book comes out next week. It is on this topic. The book is Justice Corrupted,

How the Left has weaponized the legal system. By the way, please go to Amazon or wherever you buy your books and pre order Justice Corrupted. Preorder it right now. I describe in death. We've got an entire chapter that goes into Christopher Steele goes into the fact that Hillary Clinton and the DNC paid over a million dollars to create these lies, to create something with no basis whatsoever. The

FBI knew it. Senior officials of the Department of Justice knew that that this was being paid for by Hillary Clinton in the middle of a presidential race, their oppo researcher. They basically turned the FBI into the oppo research team. For them to offer a million bucks for it is stunning. But then the second lot of money, Yes, And the reason why I'm asking is that a lot of money is we know we have FBI informants, Okay, but you know a lot more about this. I have than ever

heard of an informant being offered a billion bucks. That is what I want to know, because it's almost like bribery. In my opinion, if that's an abnormal amount of money, it's like they're begging him to please give them something that can credit verify his entire report that they knew was crap. So so I'll confess I don't know what the typical amounts that are given to informants are. That has not been I've worked in law enforcement a lot, but I haven't worked in that aspect of law enforcement.

That is a perfect topic for when we get a Republican majority in the House and Senate. I think the Senate Judiciary Committee needs to haul Christopher Ray's ass in front of the committee and force him to answer the question. I want to get a report on every single classified informant and what they paid him them to give the identities. But I want to know how much they're paying them, because my suspicion is that one million dollars is wildly out of bounds, that it's not even close If I'm wrong.

If they're routinely given million dollars checks, that may be a different level of inquiry. Yeah, but how are you spending all this money and we all are paying for it as taxpayers. Look, my suspicion is you're dealing with a thousand dollars or five thousand dollars or ten thousand dollars. And then suddenly they hire at the FBI doctor Evil, who sticks his pinky at his mouth and goes one

million dollars. So that shows how committed they are. But then the second piece of the tweet that you laid out is the timeline that they offer steal a million bucks to corroborated. He can't because it was all lies. And they nonetheless use the lies that they now know or lies because he would have taken his million bucks

if he could roberate it. And they go to the FISA court, a federal court, and they rely on those lies to get a warrant to wire tap Carter Page, who was an informal foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign. Now there's another element that's not included in this, but Michael Horowitz is the Inspector General of the Department of Justice.

He's been there a long time. He did a long report on everything that they did wrong in this investigation and persecution of Donald Trump, and he outlined I think it was seventeen different major errors. Major like everything they screwed up but one of the most dramatic is so they're looking at carter Page and trying to determine whether to go after him. And so the FBI sends an email to the CIA, and they asked, Hey, was carter Page a source for you? In other words, was he

working for you? Now, remember the basis that they wanted to spy on carter Page is he's talking to some really shady Russians right now. If he's talking to shady Russians on behalf of the CIA, if he's helping the US government by talking shady Russians, then maybe we shouldn't be intercepting his communications and spying on him because he's actually being a patriot in helping America. So the FBI says, the CIA, is this guy a source for you? The CIA responds in writing says, yes, carter Page is a

source for us. In other words, don't be surprised he's talking to shady Russians and leave him alone. Yeah, we want him to he's helping they're asking him too. So the Assistant General Counsel at the FBI takes that email from the CIA, alters it and literally deletes the phrase was a source and changes it too, was not a source. He reverses it one hundred and eighty degrees to say the opposite of what the CIA's just to keep the

FISA warrant, oh going. And then he submits that fraudulent document, that counterfeit document that he created to a federal court, which is a criminal offense. I mean, that's how bad these guys wanted to get Donald Trump, that they were willing to create fraudulent documents. They knew Steel couldn't back it up. He didn't collect his million bucks. This was absolute politicization of the Department of Justice in the FBI.

You look at this and you look at the other story that came out, and I think it shows clearly a pattern. You have these two FBI agents that went to warn big Tech Facebook about the story, the laptop story with Hunter Biden. We find out they gave donations during the same election cycle to Democrats and liberal democrats. I know, and you ran for president, right, you have themes when you run. One of the themes that clearly caught on was drained the swamp right. That was a

theme of Trump. That was a very good theme that worked well. Did you ever imagine though, that it was as bad as it is now. I don't think he could have imagined this knowing that you got people changing emails, knowing you got people like Peter Struck and Lisa Page out there doing what they were doing, knowing that you're lying to the files of court, and now knowing that you gave him a million dollars if you could just corroborate his claims his own dossier. But again I have

to go back. This was paid for and created by the Democrat National Committee and Hillary Clinton's campaign and Hillary Clinton's lawyers. No one's got in trouble for this. So this is what my book talk about talks about. My book starts with Richard Nixon, and Richard Nixon tried to use the machinery of government to go after his political enemies. He tried to use the Department of Justice, he tried to use the FBI, he tried to use the irs, and by and large the system worked. By and large,

the system pressed back. So the first chapter of the book, I do a deep dive into Nixon's corruption and it's it's a little stunning. Look, you and I were not around when Nixon was doing this stuff. So doing the research for the book was fascinating the degree to which these guys were. Nixon rightly resigned in disgrace. I am not a fan of Nixon. I think he was thoroughly corrupted.

I think he was surrounded by thoroughly corrupt cronies. But the institutions of America pressed back and said, we're not a weapon to target your political enemies. We went through a period after Nixon, we're both Democrats and Republican largely

refrained from trying to do that. That the Watergate stink was enough that everyone was nervous, and they buy and large didn't do it until a law professor from Chicago became President, Barack Obama, and the media had told him he could do no wrong, and so he began blatantly abusing government and abusing the institutions of government to go after his enemies. And the difference is the Irs told Nixon no. Under Obama, they were perfectly happy to do it.

They targeted conservatives, they targeted tea party groups. Yeah that was and people may forget that, but you had the Irs and people at with a Lois Learner In't that right? Yes, she was in charge of the of the group that was within the CII excuse me, within the IRS that literally said tea party groups five three's, you're want this, watch this, We're coming after you. Probably the weaponized it,

pro life groups, pro Israel groups. Some of the terms that they said were warning signs for a group, Constitution, Patriot Bill of Rights. Literally, if you're defending the Constitution and Bill of rights, the IRS said that made you suspect we're going to target you. Now. The reason this connects back to what we were just saying as you were talking about how Biden sent the FBI agents to

warn big tech who were Democratic donors. When the IRS scandal broke, Barack Obama held a press conference and he said he was angry, and the American people have a right to be angry. He faked indignance. Well, Eric Holder's attorney general put in charge of that investigation, a long time Democrat donor, a partisan Democrat who had given I think six thousand dollars to Obama and the DNC. She was in charge of it. I pressed Eric Holder. I called on them to appoint a special counsel who was

not a major donor to the Democrats. And of course what did she do? She buried the whole thing. They refused to do it. It was brazen, and Obama developed the pattern of let's turn these institutions into our stormtroopers. And in particular, when Obama left all of those partisans, they burrowed into the senior leadership positions below, the political appointments,

the career positions, they filled them with hard partisans. All of that has now metastasized under Joe Biden, and it is much worse than it's If you want to know what the legacy is of Barack Obama, it is what we currently have. Yes, I think at these institutions, yes, And I give my political adversaries credit when credits due. He was a brilliant guy that understood I want to go around Congress, saw going through executive orders for anything I want to do. And if I get busted, I'm

such a likable guy. I'll just walk out there and act like I'm upset or angry that this is happening that should never happen in America. The media will lie for me, and they will lie and protect me, and they never call them out once for any of this.

One of the other big lies. And this is an issue that I know you being obviously from Texas was one when you saw this lie about the border patrol agents who were on the horses and they were attacked, and we have a montage I want you to listen to of what the media did to these border patrol

agents who are on horseback. And now there's more to the story that's come out, but first let me remind everybody what the media was saying instantly without knowing any background, without knowing anything, from a picture, not a video, a picture here. It is images that make you think of how enslaved people were treated. Border agents using some kind of whips around migrants at the border. At least one border patrol agent using a whip and was effectively trying

to lasso some of the migrants whipping. I don't care what anyone says, Yes it's the rain, but nonetheless it was whipping that happened. Border patrol agents using rains against migrants. Basically that this looks like slavery. They say that this is cruel, that it's inhumane. I was not aware that whips, which come from the slave era, slavery era, were part of the package that we shoe to any sort of

law enforcement in twenty one. Seeing whips and being them corralled on horses was just a sickening and dehumanizing image. When you start whipping people, you want to split hairs between reins and whips. You look at that. They didn't know if anyone had been whipped. They saw a picture. It was a lie. You tweeted out this week a very interesting tweet on this story, calling out marchers still to this day for not defending these men that were

doing their job. They weren't whipping anyone, and no one has apologized them yet and the government has still not really backed them up. Yeah, it's even worse than that. So you had border patrol agents who are in rough terrain and they're riding horses, and they're using their reins, and it is a photograph of they're using their reins to steer the horses and they're not whipping anyone. They're not striking anyone, They're they're steering the horses with the reins.

And that picture number one. The useful idiots in the media all repeated the same talking point. No, it's almost word for word, whipping the migrants, whipping the Migrrits whipping the migrants. That was the talking point and then immediately moved a race, and none of them cared about the truth or falsity of it. None of them cared what the truth was. Those border patrol agents were doing their jobs, trying to protect the country. But it gets even worse.

So this week it broke that Alejandro may Orchis, who's the Homeland Security Secretary, received that day an email from a subordinate that said the photographer who took the picture, the picture that everyone is claiming saying this is the border patrol agents whipping people. Said, no, no, nobody whipped anyone. That's not what the picture shows. That that's a misunderstanding. So he knew that day one, and a couple hours later he went and did a press conference. We've got

that press conference. Let's play it, and I want to play this because I want people to understand this. Get his eyes. This was a pre planned moment. This was a moment where they could justify an open border. It was a moment where they could attack the people protecting the border, and it was a moment they could seize to say, look at these evil people down there in law enforcement. We don't back them, we don't stand behind them.

You should never listen to anything they say about the fetno or anything else coming across the border, or the death or destruction that's happening at the border, or even in humane conditions that were happening at the border. And you could see, and I call this a setup. And that's why I want to make sure I say pay attention everybody, because he couldn't wait knowing that what he was says a lie to push this political bs. Look, that is something that is something that horrified us all.

And you know, this morning I was on radio and the interviewer said that it was it troubled very profoundly black in the African American community. And I said one thing, and this should be clear. Those are not the only communities that it qualified. Those are not the only communities that he concerned. Of course, that concern might be most acute given the history in this country and in other parts of the world, but all of America is horrified

to see what those images suggest. You expose this. He knew in the moment he was saying that that everything he was saying was a lie, and he basically decided to take the full power of the White House podium to slander our border patrol agents and to turn them into the worst people in the world. So he had a choice. He's been given a very important responsibility. He's the Secretary of Homeland Security. He is one of the top He and the Attorney General are the top two

law enforcement officials in the United States of America. He has tens of thousands of law enforcement officers who report to him. The border patrol agents report to him, Ice reports to him. He had a choice. He could do what an honorable leader would do, which is defend your people, which is tell the truth. He knew at the time. He knew he'd been informed in writing that his agents were being slandered, that what all of the chattering voices

an MSNBC was saying was a lie. He knew that that's not what the picture showed, because he knew that the photographer who took it said they weren't whipping anyone. And anyone who was honorable, anyone who actually cared about your job would support your men and women, would tell the truth, and frankly would be indignant. Someone who had integrity would stand up and say, let me tell you about these border patrol agents they risk there's the boss.

He is literally their boss, and he's throwing his own employees under the bus, and he deliberately lied about it. That clip there, you are listening to someone who is lying, who knows he is lying, and he's doing it for one reason, which is to curry favor with the Biden White House. He knows the Biden White House likes this story. They like telling look, they can't defend their open borders

in the chaos of the southern border. So the left has one card they play over and over again in the race card, and they want to say, well, look, anyone's securing the border, they're just evil slaveholders whipping people, which they knew was a lie. But anyone they dislike

they call a klansman. By the way, it's worth noting just this week the what is it the chairman or president of the Los Angeles City Council, a Democrat, a hard leftist, a big advocate of abolishing the police, resigned in disgrace because she and three others were caught on tape with virulently racist attacks attacking African Americans, attacking a white colleague of hers who had adopted an African American child, and adopting other Hispanics from Wahaka and Mexico, saying they

were dark skinned and ugly. And look, when it comes to virulent racism, to be fair, neither party has a monopoly on it. There are racists across the political spectrum, but the Democratic Party normalizes and welcomes this. And and it is fitting when you're willing to do what Mayorcus is willing to do. There you are trafficking and deliberate lies and deception, and those officers those job huh loses job.

Absolutely yes. And I believe one of the very first things we should do when we have a majority next year is that we should impeach him. Now, what does that mean for the House to impeach him? Takes a majority. We're going to have a majority in the House. I think that will happen. I actually have a pretty high level of confidence that within the first couple of months, the House will impeach Mayorcus. And that's a big deal

because it doesn't happen very often. It is a big, big deal, and a reasonable person could say, well, why would you do that? Because impeaching, as you know, is bringing formal charges against an official that takes the majority. It then goes to the Senate to remove someone from office takes two thirds. Sadly, the Democrats, with Donald Trump educated all of America about that, the chances that any Senate Democrat are that enough Senate Democrats would be willing

to vote to remove Mayorcus are essentially zero. These guys, none of them care. Every one of them has voted in favor of open borders over and over and over and over and over again. There's not a single moderate on this issue. All of the Democrats are running pretending to be moderates, but every one of them, when given a chance to vote, votes in favor of open borders,

So they're not going to vote to remove Mayorcus. The reason we need to do this is we need to have a trial on the floor of the Senate, and it needs to be an extended two week trial where we put on evidence systematically explaining the chaos, the suffering, the children abused, the women who are raped, the dead bodies, the fentanol overdoses, all of the misery that is caused

by our open borders. And the reason we need to do that is those same useful idiots that you just played on the media that are telling Democrat talking points. They refuse to report on what's actually happening on the border. That's how this administration gets away with it. If if it's not even just about impeaching him, it's really about saying, here's the reality of what's happening at the border. This is how bad is this is the human suffering? Yes, right,

I go back to AOC the kids in cages. Right, you know, well, guess what who bought and paid for him? The Obama Biden administration, who use them for years. They're the ones that use them for years. You go back to that. But you look at all the suffering, You look at the human struggling, You look at the money tied to every human being. There's every human being is worth money to these smugg orders, and they'll use them

billions higher way, Yes it is. And to be clear, when it comes to the cages, Obama built the cages, and they are bigger and more in humane under Joe Biden than they ever have been. And I've been to the pages. I've been to the cages under Barack Obama. I've been to the cages under Donald Trump, and I've been to the cages under Joe Biden. The Democrats only go under Trump. When it was Obama and Biden, they

ignore it. Nothing to see here, personal sidebt over under You think the woman who's in charge of the border, Kamala Harris, will ever actually go to the border. No, And there's a reason. It's not even that she doesn't want to see it, although she doesn't want to see it. It's that she knows if she comes, the TV cameras will follow her. That's the same reason Joe Biden hasn't been to the border. Because their strategy it is so bad.

You cannot defend this like if you see, if you see the children suffering, if you see the disease, if you see the crime. This is modern day slavery. And so their only defense is make it disappear. And the way they make it disappear is with a complicity of every hack in the media who refuses to cover it. And the bizarre thing is, look, if you are someone who watches Let's say you watch CNN and you think you're a middle of the road person. You think, sir,

I'm not a partisan Democrat. You've been on CNN a bunch, you know, worse, seven years of my life. Yes, thank you, for bringing that up. I'm still in therapy for it. Well. To be honest, they didn't used to be as horrible as they are. But if you watch MSNBC or for that matter, ABC, CBS, NBC, you don't know that there's

a border crisis. It doesn't exist. I had a border patrol agent who said to me, he called into my show one night and he said, I never thought I'd see a third world country be created within the United States America. And that's how he described with the word. He say, it's the third world country conditions, the living conditions, the humanitarian crisis, what they're interacting with. It's coming across

the border. It is, he said, of that scale. So I had dinner with some friends last night who one of the folks her sister owns a ranch down in South Texas, down by Eagle Pass. She said her sister's ranch has a thousand illegal aliens crossing it every week, every single week. A thousand. Now, that's enough to declare

national's disaster. In New York City, by the way, at the hands of the mayor, there fifty in Martha's vineyards, they declared an emergency and brought in ad was one hundred and twenty National guardsmen to deal with fifty people. Imagine being that ranch owner a thousand a week. I was talking with another ranch owner who has a farm down there, who bought a farm, and he wanted to

grow organic crops. He can't grow organic crops because the USDA has a rule when you have illegal aliens crossing, you're not allowed to sell the produce you produced because their disease is carried. And so he can't grow on his land because the volume is just constant. He's asked the National Guard to come in. He's asked Texas to come in and and and and build build the wall there because he literally cannot grow anymore on his farm because the volume is so much that it is illegal

to sell the produce that has grown there. And by the way, the refuse, he told me, like scattered their clothes and diapers and trash, I mean just truckloads of garbage being brought. When you have four point four million people crossing the border illegally in a year and a half, the damage and devastation it brings, that's what we need to have a trial on the Senate floor is make people see that. I'll tell you something we need to show them, and this is I'm going to apologize it's

a little graphic, but it's true. When I was last at the southern border, I brought a group of two times ago. Actually I brought a group of seven senators down there and met with border patrol and law enforcement and they told me about a new phenomenon that they've just started seeing, which is that the human traffickers take women across the border into the United States and they rape them and they then hang their undergarments in a tree.

And what law enforcement and border patrol is finding is trees with ten twenty thirty women's underwear hanging in it, and they call them rape trees now, and the cartels are bragging, they're flaunting to the law enforcement, you cannot stop me while we commit these atrocities. That's what Joe Biden has done, That's what Kamala Harris has done. And that's what we need on the Senate floor is for people to see the rape trees that are the result of the people to understand this multiple this is now

become a new thing. It's a way of giving the middle finger to America, to our leadership, to our board of troll bass saying, you guys have no power over us, and this is how brazen we become. Exactly. Lastly, and I want to get into a subject, but there is a issue that is happening and it's in the medical community. And I want to play this video and then I want you to explain this is an actual, real moment happening. I think it's University of Minnesota, correct, where you have

medical students that are actually having to recite this. Listen carefully, folks, because this is what's happening in medical schools in this country. Our institution is located on Dakota Land. Today, many Indigenous people throughout the state called the Twin Cities home. We commit to uprooting the legacy and perpetuation of structural violence

deeply embedded within the healthcare system. We recognize inequities built by past and present traumas rooted in white supremacy, colonialism, the gender binary, ableism, and all forms of oppression be pledged to honor all Indigenous ways of healing that have

been historically marginalized by Western medicine. It's maybe the creepiest thing I've ever seen, but I also you may be like me when you do what you do for a living, you always have in the back of your head when you're picking someone to take care of you medical you

want to make sure they're friendly. I watched that and the fact that this is happening and somehow legal to have that be recited, to mandate that and doctrinate doctors this way after what we just saw with doctors being also their careers being threatened if they didn't do the exactly what they were told to do with COVID nineteen can't do ivermect and can't talk about this. You saw this and you tweeted about this, because this is a

moment that needs to be stopped now in America. So look, anyone who listens to that, or even worse, if you watch the video, and I encourage you watch the video. It looks like a cult. It looks like the branch Davidians. You expect David Koresh to be at the front of it. They are. This is a medical school, University of Minnesota Medical School. This is all of their students or some subset of their students, I don't know which, but they're forced to stand up. They're all reading pieces of paper.

The school is the church, like they're a church and they're giving a pledge. Now, a medical school is supposed to teach you how to be a doctor. It's supposed to teach you signs. This is all politics, this is woke. Later in that pledge, they pledge their commitment to anti racism. We didn't play that segment, but that's a little bit later in their pledge, it is hardcore Marxist. So they pledge to be opposed to the gender binary, to fight against.

In other words, every one of these ostensible doctors is pledging against the notion that there is such a thing as a woman and they're such a thing as a man. That that is oppressive. And number one, what the hell are medical schools engaged in political indoctrination? Number two, this is not a private medical school. This is the University of Minnesota. This is paid for by Minnesota taxpayers who are paying to indoctrinate their doctors. You know what, if I go to a doctor, I'd like to know how

to get better from whatever's ailing me. And you know this, we pledge to treat all indigenous forms the same as modern medicine. You know, if I've got cancer, I don't want them to tell me to smoke peyote. I want them to tell me how to cure the Fragan cancer. And it is it's a top I also want you to understand this. This is a top medical school. This is not some like online university. This is at the highest levels. You add this into what just happened at Vanderbilt,

and let me ask you something. Let's suppose instead of becoming a world famous podcaster, you decided you wanted to be a doctor. And let's suppose you studied hard, did well in the MCAT, you got into the University of

Minnesota medic school. It's good school, big deal. Imagine you're one of those students and you're standing there, what do you do well If it's your lifelong dream to be a doctor and I understand this, and let's pay your two years into it, or to raise your hand and say I'm not doing this, You're gonna sit down and protest and get kicked out of medical school. And because they own you at that point, right your entire life's work is happening. They own you. You have to finish.

And if you don't finish, what's your next career? Like, yeah, you can be a whistle blower in a sense, but you're ruined, You're done. By the way the guy leading that chant, the David Koresh I was reading his background. He's got a medical degree from Yale. He's got a degree I think from Johns Hopkins. He did his residency at Harvard. I mean, it's a gold plated medical resume. And he is now a Marxist indoctrinator, like like, that's not medicine, that's not science. That is politics, and it's

dishonest and bad politics it is. Is there any way to stop it? Because it's it's humming real. And I'll end with this question because we had friends that just had a baby. She is going into the hospital with contractions. I mean, this is that see now the movie that everybody has right the water's broken, And they actually had to spend time as she's actually in doing contractions and filling out paperwork. And one of the things was do you identify as a man or woman? She's pregnant, she's

about to have a child. And it says literally they're asking her as they're checking her in, are you a man or a woman? I'm a woman. I'm pregnant. And these are the people we're supposed to trust with your life, in your baby's life. If there's any complications, this is the institution. So my point is they're winning because you're getting those questions asked, tells you they're winning. Vanderbilt what happened there? They're winning this, They're winning. How do we

Is there a way to correct this? So? Look, you and I are both dads. You know I was there when both our girls were born. Can you imagine walk into the hospital with your wife nine months pregnant and labor and the doctor's saying, sir, which one of you is giving birth? Right? Mister Ferguson, can we put you up in stirrups? You know, Hey, no, I want a different hospital. Well, you people are nuts if you can't figure out which person has a baby. Yeah, we got

bigger problems here. So look, they're winning and they're not. The cultural Marxists have taken over the institutions of much of our society. University of Minnesota Medical School is apparently altogether lost. But here's the good news. Most of America has common sense. They've gone too far. I think there's a big pushback. By the way you look at this election, the Hispanic community is moving to Republicans and massive numbers. This kind of idiotcy is a big part of it.

You look at suburban women moms Virginia that went from ten points going for Joe Biden to a year later electing a Republican governor. It was moms who were ticked off at this kind of garbage. So I do think the left has gone They've jumped the shark. They gone so crazy that there is a large supermajority of Americans that think it's nutty. If you say birthing people and not moms, you're feah, we're not going to be friends. Now.

I will say, I think there are a lot of people who think that's nutty, but a lot of them are scared to say it. I mean it, they're now. I think they're quietly going into the voting booth and they're pulling the lever the other direction. But it is the left operates by fear and intimidation and destructure that

they go after you. So so if you happen to believe that women exist, look, jk Rowling, who is a throw and through leftist, has been utterly tarred and feathered because she actually believes women exist, and if you or I decided tomorrow I feel pretty, I'm a woman. She's like, well, dude, no you're not. You can do that you want, you know, dressing, you can dress as a woman. You can go get out of surgery and chop it all off. But that's

doesn't suddenly make you a woman. We could knock yourself out if that's what you want to do, But don't ask me to insist that there is nothing about women that has any meaning whatsoever. She is the idiot actors on Harry Potter. Don't invite her to Harry Potter reunions, Like how stupid is that? It's welcome to the insanity of the world right now center. It's fun. This is gonna be a lot of fun for everyone listening. Remind you and watching. We're doing this three days a week.

Two of them are going to be audio only. One is gonna be video as well. You can watch on YouTube. I ask people this all the time. Two things, Please share the podcast with your family and friends if you're if you're listening, and you can see that little forward arrow, share it. Number two. Write us a five star review, because lord knows, the lefties love to write you one star reviews, so help us combat that, and tell your family and friends, and I'll see you in a couple of days.
