Democrats Can't Keep This Sex Criminal Locked Up | Episode 136

23:35They just want to spend money on NPR and PBS.

23:40Dan Bongino:They want to give illegal aliens health care. And the rest of us are saying, hell no, we don't want any of that garbage. What are you, nuts? No, we're not doing that. That's not happening. So yesterday, these idiots have their meeting. And Schumer and Jeffries, they left the Oval Office yesterday. and I'll give you like the shortest little version of Chuck Schumer's take on all of this garbage. Here's what Chuck Schumer had to say yesterday. Take a look at this as they step outside the oven. We have very large differences on health care and on their ability to undo whatever budget we agree to through decisions and through impoundment as well as pocket decisions.

24:24All right. So that's the take from Chuck Schumer. He's like, we're very far apart on health care. That's because they want to fund illegals. I'm telling you, this is the stuff they don't say. It's always in the silence that you find out what they're really trying to conceal from you. They want to fund illegals and they're mad about, you heard him say it, impoundment, rescissions and pocket rescissions.

24:44Dan Bongino:They're mad about the president cutting spending on garbage. Now, remember, Democrats don't control any aspect of this. They don't control the House. They don't control the Senate. What they do control at the moment is they're blocking anything being done in the Senate because of the supermajority required to get this through. We need 60 votes. Democrats refuse to give it. That's where we are right now. The vice president of the United States stepped out yesterday after Dumb and Dumber did their press conference. And here is Vice President Vance ripping these Democrats for blowing their opportunity yesterday to keep this government open.

25:25Dan Bongino:Watch. Cut one.

25:56The original thing they did with this negotiation, it was a$1.5 trillion spending package, basically saying to the American people, we want to give massive amounts of money, hundreds of billions of dollars to illegal aliens for their health care, while Americans are struggling to pay their health care bills. That was their initial foray into this negotiation. We thought it was absurd. We told them it was absurd. And now they come in here saying that if you don't give us everything that we want, we're going to shut down the government. We think that's preposterous. We think it's totally unacceptable and we think the American people are going to suffer because these guys won't do the right thing.

26:31Yeah, J.D. Vance doing a great job just coming out. This is preposterous. You want to you want to stop the checks to the troops? Then go with the Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer plan right now, which is to make your life more miserable and to not keep those checks coming.

26:48Dan Bongino:So I want to applaud the White House, by the way, because like Republicans on a routine basis, they get outmaneuvered in these stupid shutdown fights because they just they don't have the stomach. They don't have the testicular fortitude to actually fight and to and to say what's actually on the line. That's not a problem with the president and the vice president. They don't have that problem, that particular reflection. They're just coming out very forcefully and saying, yep, these guys are to blame. We're just trying to keep this thing moving. and if it all collapses, it's Democrats who own this.

27:16It is the Schumer shutdown. And by the way, for federal government employees, for those people, especially those Democrats who are federal government employees, if you're getting a little rattled about the fact that you might be laid off, call your senator.

27:30Dan Bongino:Tell him, keep the government open. You want to keep that job? Keep the government open. Go ahead, place pressure on your fellow Democrat. Now's your chance. The window's closing. The president reacted to this yesterday. hilariously. I mean, I'm at home last night and I get a notification on Truth Social, as I always do, that President Trump has posted something. So I was like, what has he posted? What is it? Here's the president tweeting a video of Schumer and Jeffrey's looking absolutely ridiculous. Cut to take a look. Look, guys, there's no way to sugarcoat it. Nobody likes Democrats anymore.

28:04We have no voters left because of all of our woke trans bullshit. Not even black people want to vote for us anymore. Even Latinos hate us. So we need new voters. and if we give all these illegal aliens free health care, we might be able to get them on our side so they can vote for us. They can't even speak English, so they won't realize we're just a bunch of woke pieces of shit, you know, at least for a while until they learn English and they realize they hate us too. Until they learn English and then realize they hate us too. And for those of you not watching the video podcast, somebody placed a sombrero and an oversized curled mustache onto Hakeem Jeffries like some ham-fisted attempt to appeal to Latino voters it's really funny so funny we really have the greatest president I'm telling you relish these moments marinate in them please because we're never going to get them again even if we get another great president and I have a lot of hope in a guy like J.D.

29:10Vance to be a great president you're never going to get that again Never, never. Not the quality.

29:15Dan Bongino:It's not going to happen again. So just remember these moments because you're going to look back on them fondly someday. You're going to be like, remember that? How awesome that was?

Joining us now is a reporter for WJLA. That's an ABC affiliate in the Washington, D.C. and Virginia area. Nick Minock, great reporter. I've been following him for years, and I'm very grateful that he's joining us today. Nick, good to have you on the program today, sir. It's good to see you, Vince.

32:32Okay, so one of the reasons I want to talk to you is there's a guy, there's a sex offender that you have done so much work covering by the name of Nick, sorry, Nick, my gosh, Richard Cox. You're Nick Minnock. We're talking about Richard Cox. Take a look at this.

32:49Dan Bongino:I want to put this on screen, fellas, if you can put up my monitor right now. This is the sex offender that probably people have seen in national, on their social media accounts. Justin, if we could put that up. Here's his photo. And this guy, he was busted years ago for being a sex offender. He's a convicted tier three sex offender. But the big story that Nick keeps breaking here is he keeps showing up in women's locker rooms all over northern Virginia. Nick, tell us the story of this guy. Who is he? Sure. So Richard Cox, that's his name, Richard Kenneth Cox. He has a lengthy criminal history.

33:36He's on the registry as a sex offender, a tier three sex offender, the most serious kind, which means he has to re-register every few months as a sex offender. He was originally busted in the early 90s for allegedly touching himself in front of children under the age of 14 years old at an Arlington gymnasium. He was in prison for a number of years when he got out. He was then again busted for child abuse serial, and that's what put him on the sex offender registry. Fast forward a little bit, we start getting calls from victims, women, early this year in January, saying they saw a biological male in their locker room.

34:24And that's what started our investigation. So I started calling around to police sources, and I learned that he was arrested in Arlington in December of last year for going to Arlington Bar, Cross Sports and Fitness Center. So this is a county run rec center. He told staff there that he was a woman and that he was entitled to use the women's locker room. They asked him to go into the women's locker room. Then he allegedly exposed himself to women and girls in that locker room. He was arrested. And then police in Arlington found that he had also visited two high schools in Arlington, Washington Liberty High School and Wakefield High School, which both have pools open to the public outside of school hours, where he did the same thing, said he was a woman.

35:13They allowed him in the women's locker room. He disrobed and spent a lot of time in those locker rooms, allegedly exposing himself to women and girls. And so fast forward today, we're learning new details in courts. He had a preliminary hearing last week. And then some of the things you hear from these witnesses who saw what's going on, which is make your jaw drop. For instance, there was a woman who said she had her five-year-old daughter with her right after swim class, went into the locker room, and Richard Cox was in a shower stall. He had a curtain open, this witness said. And if you put a graphic detail, I posted them on X, but I'll just say he was touching himself, according to this witness, as this five-year-old saw it all happen.

36:00And that's not the only witness who saw it. A number of other witnesses testified he did this, too. And what's interesting about this, Vince, too, is so he is being held accountable. He's being prosecuted, charged in Arlington County for doing this, but not in Fairfax County, which is in Green County, where he went to three rec centers, told them he was a woman. They allowed him inside the women's locker room. And he exposed himself there, according to witnesses, and he's facing no charges in Fairfax County. And Virginia Attorney General Jason Meara has brought that up in his press conference last Friday when he slammed the prosecutor in Fairfax County for doing nothing about it.

36:46I'm sorry.

36:47Dan Bongino:So if he had done this, to be clear, if he was doing the same behavior in the men's locker room towards little boys, that would be the that would be the basis of a criminal offense. But he's doing this as a as an adult male inside of the women's locker room and the county's not doing anything about it. Right, right. He was in the men's locker room exposing himself to, let's say, boys or even men. He's not supposed to be there in Fairfax County of his probation. He's a registered tier three sex offender. He cannot be within 100 feet, a great law of a day program for children. And these rec centers, they're very popular in Fairfax County.

37:31A lot of kids go there. They have swim classes there. Aaron's dropped their kids off. They have fun. The local school system uses them. They have day programs for children. And we learned in court last week that Richard Cox, according to the detective, they found children's swim class schedules on his phone at these Fairfax County rec centers, which the prosecutor says proves motive on why he was going there in the first place. Miara says that this man was hunting little girls in Fairfax County, and leaders are doing nothing about it there. Okay. So tell me about these leaders in northern Virginia.

38:12These are Democrat officials, by and large, and in some cases Soros-funded prosecutors from their campaigns. And it appears, as with each chapter in this guy's saga, that they've let him go. How frequently have they had an opportunity to prevent any more of this from happening? You know, had Fairfax County Commonwealth's attorney, Steve Discanos, you know, what we call our local DA and Virginia Commonwealth's attorney. He had many opportunities to hold this man accountable even before his rec center visits in Fairfax County. In fact, he visited Planet Fitnesses for months, of course, to people who saw him in Fairfax County.

38:54A woman filed an indecent exposure charge against him because she saw him fully naked in the women's locker room at a Planet Fitness in Fairfax County. She went to a magistrate, filed out the charge. But when the court date came, Descano's office didn't help the victim, didn't help the victim at all. they did not so she could not be there on the original court date you know she she got she's going to be out of town she told the court she asked for a continuance and in most cases a prosecutor would stand there and say look the complainant the plaintiff she's out of town we request a continuance and a judge would grant that continuance so then there would be a court hearing a different day but since the prosecutor decided not to show up and represent this victim when Cox asked for the charge to be dismissed, the judge threw his arms up and dismissed it because no one was there to advocate for the victim.

39:55So had Steve Descano prosecuted Cox on that charge, he would have also learned that Mr. Cox visited a Planet Fitness that was right next door to a day program for children, a Jolly Olly indoor playground for kids right next door to another Planet Fitness in Fairfax County. And he's not allowed anywhere near that either. So had Mr. Descano held Cox accountable for those original offenses back in June, May and June of last year, he then would not have been able to go on to Fairfax County rec centers in August and September and October and then go to Arlington in November and December. So, yeah. And so people know Steve Descano is one of those Soros backed prosecutors.

40:41Dan Bongino:So so this particular guy, have you found, Nick, that that Steve Descano is this lenient towards all sex offenders or only people who call themselves transgender? Sure. So I've done stories at WTLA on prosecutors and Steve Descano's own sex crime unit, people who are supposed to prosecute sex crimes that they have felt that their boss has been too lenient on criminals and sex crimes. And so this goes for a number of cases. But you really got to wonder why Mr. Descano's office isn't prosecuting Mr. Cox now, because they did prosecute him for failing to register as a sex offenders earlier when he didn't identify as a woman.

41:33So what changed? Yeah. OK, tell me about the implications for the governor's race that are going that's going on right now in Virginia. So on one side, you've got the lieutenant governor, Winsome Sears, who is running as the Republican candidate. This is coming up here in November. And then on the other side, you have Democrat Abigail Spanberger. What have each of them said about this case? Governor Winsome Earl Sears, she has put Richard Cox for TV ads. So if you're in Virginia, you will see for Cox on TV in political ads. Earl Sears says Spanberger has voted to allow people like Mr. Cox to share women's locker rooms and bathrooms.

42:18So it's become a big point in this race for governor. This this example of Richard Cox going into women's locker rooms. I have asked Abigail Spanberger a number of times on where she stands on this. In fact, she was in Fairfax County a couple of weeks ago, and I asked her, does she support allowing biological males who say they're women using women's bathrooms and locker rooms? And she gave us what some would call a word salad. She did not directly answer the question. And then after that, I decided to continue to ask her, and she had her stuff. you know, flock me from asking questions. So Ms.

43:04Spanberger hasn't really answered the question on this one. Let me show people this video. Let's take a look here. This is Nick Minnock, who is our guest, asking Abigail Spanberger about her position on this guy, Richard Cox, this sex offender, constantly going into locker rooms in Northern Virginia. Look at this. For months, 7 News has been trying to get Congressman Abigail Spanberger to clearly answer where does she stand on the locker room and bathroom issue that has divided so many school communities in Northern Virginia. This afternoon in Fairfax County during her media availability I tried asking Spamberger questions on where she stands but her response did not directly answer our question so we tried again on her way out.

43:49Can you tell us directly do you support biological males who say they're women using women's locker rooms and bathrooms and competing in women's sports. Well, the the circumstances this legal case plays out is really one of we've had court cases settled or judged here in Virginia in the fourth district, the former Gavin Grimm case related to bathroom usage. And in fact, the argument is the assessment is there needs to be much clearer guidance in terms of what is an executive orders binding assessment of Title IX versus what has been a decision of a court. But do you personally support these policies?

44:30Do you personally support them? Do you support these locker room or bathroom policies, Congresswoman? Why can't you answer this question directly? Unreal. Unreal. Congresswoman, do you support these bathroom and locker room policies? Why can't you answer these questions directly. And that's the response we got in Fairfax County. Nick Benock, Seven News. I'm real.

44:54Dan Bongino:I mean, it's just I'm listening to this. She doesn't want to answer your question for a million different reasons, but most of all, because of the political peril she would be in with her own party if she honestly said, no, men should not be in the women's bathrooms. And so and so you I think you described it well. That was word salad. I have no idea what she was even attempting to say there. I don't know what her position is. And by concealing it, she's telling us outright that she is comfortable with men going into women's restrooms. No. Yeah. Yeah. And you touch on a point here that her own party would be upset if she opposed these policies.

45:29I mean, right now, the Trump administration is trying to get five Northern Virginia school assistants, including Fairfax County, to get rid of their policies that allow biological males, women girls locker rooms and bathrooms at school. Yeah. And I've chatted with a number of Democrats to support these policies. And they want to Abigail Svanderger to support them, support them and defend the five school systems against the Trump administration. So that is where she's at right now, where you've got a lot of people in Virginia who oppose these policies, but there's a lot of Democrats in her party.

46:08Many of them support them. So that's where she's at right now. So maybe that's why she wouldn't give us a direct answer, because if she said that she supports them, it would probably alienate a lot of voters who oppose them. But if she said she opposed them, she would see uproar in the Democratic ranks, according to sources that I've been speaking to. Yep. And this is all about that election, of course. And and I know you're you're just a straight down the middle reporter. You've done such great work through the years. And we're also grateful for that. For those of you, especially living in the northern Virginia, D.C.

46:44area. But I will say on a personal level that she should suffer electoral defeat for that position. It's it's outrageous. And it really telegraphs what she intends to do. Should she become governor of the the Commonwealth? God forbid that that actually happens. Nick Minnock, please continue the great work at WJLA. Thank you, as always, for your efforts. Appreciate you today, sir. Thank you, Vince. All right, there he is, Nick Minnock. He is a great reporter. Give him a follow, Nick Minnock on X, and you'll be able to see what he's up to. But the important piece here is this has – you may have seen that guy, that crazy sex offender dude, Richard Cox, before either on social media or in some national media.

47:27Dan Bongino:But the point is it has big national implications insofar as this is what it looks like when Democrats run the justice system. This is what it looks like when Democrats are the prosecutors, when George Soros gets to decide who gets prosecuted and who doesn't. This northern Virginia and as specifically. Under Soros backed prosecutors has become a safe haven, not for children, not for families, but for sex offenders, For a guy who goes, who tracks the schedules, he tracks the gymnastics and swim class schedules of little children so he can go and camp out inside of their locker rooms and then pleasure himself in front of them.

48:09Dan Bongino:And then the system doesn't stop that guy. And then makes excuses for him. And then plays along with this idea that he's a woman and therefore he's the victim in this saga. it's absolutely disgraceful and it's a wonder by the way that no father has gotten a hold of that dude in the wake of that action and beaten his beaten his face in because that's precisely what that man deserves now he's in the hands of the justice system right now as far as the voters are concerned they should get rid of these idiots these cruel people who run this system. And that includes this election coming up in November in Virginia.

49:00Now, I've said it before. I'm going to say again, and just as a reminder to my team here, I want Winsome Sears on the program. I know they've been trying. Producer Andy has been knocking on our door.

49:14But we got to have her on. You know, you have an open invitational lieutenant governor. Winston Sears is a United States Marine. She's a patriot, and I'd be grateful to have her on here. And not just grateful. The whole point is I want more people to know about her and to support her campaign. I want to see her get across the finish line. I want her to defeat Abigail Spanberger. You understand what's happening in Virginia. We'll get to New Jersey too, but what's happening in Virginia in this big governor's race is on one side you have sanity, you have decency in the form of Winston Sears, And on the other side, you have Abigail Spanberger, who's looking to make it so that Virginia is a sanctuary state.

49:53Dan Bongino:She's looking to come after gun owners. I was just talking to somebody recently about gun restrictions that Abigail Spanberger will put in place immediately in the Commonwealth as quickly as they possibly can. Danger is ahead if Democrats are in charge of anything else. It is. and then to see this this attitude of yeah yeah it's fine if kids get abused because we'll just let the men inside of the little girls locker rooms when they're going to swim class or when they're going to gymnastics this can't happen i'm praying to god that voters wake up and if you're in virginia please i beg of you not only get to the polls but bring 50 people with you turn it into an event.

50:39Dan Bongino:Make it a party if you need to. Whatever it takes, get people out to vote and lay out the stakes for them. Maybe they don't know the stakes. Send them this episode. Send them this show so they understand what's on the line here. But these are the fights that we have to have right now before it's too late. And Winston-Sears has some catch-up to do. If you believe the polls at all. We're talking about a double-digit situation at the moment. That's not good. She's got to play catch-up, and it's got to happen fast. So we'll see. We'll see. Yeah, somebody asked, is it bad enough yet? It is for me, Virginia McGroin.

51:20Thank you, Virginia. It is for me. Work, Virginia. Meanwhile, New Jersey's got a better situation right now. Jack Cittarelli is doing good against Mikey Sherrill. Is it Mikey or Mickey? I keep seeing Mikey. Anyway, it doesn't matter to me. Other than just I'll try and pronounce it correctly if I can. But the point is this Mikey Sherrill, who is a disaster, who's lied about her record,

51:46Dan Bongino:who is a Democrat in every sense of the word. Jack Cittarelli came so close last time he ran. And I don't think this time this time he's looking very, very good. There's an energy right now in New Jersey. God bless you in New Jersey. If you're supporting Jack Cittarelli and helping him here, there's an energy in New Jersey that could deliver meaningful victory here and get a Republican into the governor's mansion. That's a big deal. Let's get there with with Jack Cittarelli. Again, same deal as in Virginia. Not only are you should you get out to vote, you got to get everybody you know out to do it, too.

52:23You have to drag people to the polls.

52:25Dan Bongino:The days of Republicans just sitting on their asses and just hoping that it's going to work out, that has to be over. We saw what happened in 2024. President Trump went out and he's what did he say about the election? Too big to rig. What did he say about early voting? Do it. Get out. Take advantage of it. Lock in your vote. The early voting thing, especially the reason that this matters right now is like, look, if the Democrats are going to set these rules up because they think they're going to benefit them, let's take advantage of the system that they set up that they thought was going to help.

52:53And we'll we'll we'll exploit that system. We'll jump into it. The other piece is take Take your vote off of the registry. That way nobody else can take it. So the earlier you seize your own vote, the less likely it is that somebody else can come in and fraudulently claim to be you. Rack up those numbers. And then finally, of course, the big thing about the early voting is, you know, people say they're going to, oh, I'll do it on election day. And then you never know. Your tires blow out the morning of election day. Your kid's got some sort of thing they got to be at.

53:25Dan Bongino:All of a sudden, you've got something getting in the way of you going to the polls. this happens. It happens all the time. You know, people say, not me, that what happened to me? We'll see. You never know what you don't know. So just lock it in while you get a chance. Just do it. We've got big elections right now. Virginia, New Jersey, get it done. Too big to rig. Get some Republicans across the finish line. It's really big. And set us up nicely next year for the midterms, okay? That's all I want. Swamp the vote, says Patriot Lieutenant Dan. Thank you, Patriot Lieutenant Dan. Swamp the damn vote.

53:57This is a test of the emergency voting system. Let's get it done right now. Hey, let me end with some encouraging news for you. I got a lot. Encouraging news, by the way, will be if these Republicans win in these big races. But a couple of other things I want to hit real fast for you. You know that the Trump administration is trying like hell to get illegal aliens out of our country. And there's Democrat states, speaking of Democrat-run states, who are doing everything they can to stop it. But President Trump's got some support from the Republican states. And we just got an announcement yesterday from Oklahoma Governor Stitt.

54:38They're running something called Operation Guardian. And during Operation Guardian, they picked up. This is just a short operation that they did along I-40 in western Oklahoma.

54:49Dan Bongino:They picked up more than 125 illegal aliens. 125 of them from places like India, Uzbekistan, China, Russia, Georgia, Turkey, Tajikistan, Ukraine, Mauritania, Mauritania, Mauritania. You know, they still have chattel slavery in Mauritania. Did you know that? It's crazy. So Governor Kevin Stitt announced yesterday they're picking up people like crazy in Oklahoma, helping the feds out. and in the process, check this out. They said that New York State has been handing out commercial driver's licenses to illegal aliens and instead of putting a name on the thing, they just write no name given. Have you seen this?

55:32Dan Bongino:Look at this. If you're watching on rumble.com slash Vince right now, look at this New York State commercial driver's license. It says no name given. And chat, look at, first of all, there you go. So that's the garbage that's dropped onto this ID by New York State, this Democrat-run state. And look up here. What is that little star in the corner? What does that star in the corner mean? Anybody? Anybody in the chat know what this star is supposed to mean if it's on your ID? What does that mean? I'm waiting for the chat to tell me. There's a tiny lag time between when I say it and when chat can respond to me.

56:06Look at this little star. What does that mean on the top right corner of a driver's license? There you go, Anita. Anita McGroin gets it first. Real ID.

56:14Dan Bongino:It's a real ID. It's the ID that you and I have to have now. The whole government says that we got to have real ID. And one of the upsides to real ID, if there is an upside, is that we can try and stop illegal aliens from, you know, exploiting national benefits of any kind. Oh, real ID. We know this is an American citizen. This is a legit person. New York State is giving out real IDs with the name No Name Given. for commercial drivers. And Oklahoma just picked this dude up. Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt says, if New York was to hand out CDLs to illegal aliens with no name given, that's on them.

56:56The moment they cross into Oklahoma, they answer to our laws, he says. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol performed an enforcement action along I-40. We apprehended 125 illegal aliens. This is keeping Oklahomans safe. he's not alone. Other states are getting busy with these operations. It's not just Oklahoma. In fact, it's happening all over the place. In Texas, they just did Operation Pickoff. They keep doing this, Operation Pickoff. And in Laredo, they just picked up 28 illegal aliens over a two-day operation. That's good. That's wonderful. I'm just glad they're doing it. They're coordinating with the feds to do this.

57:36That followed another version of Operation Pickoff

57:39Dan Bongino:that took place in the Rio Grande Valley. They picked up about 80 criminal illegal aliens during that operation. And then Florida just did Operation One-Way Ticket, and they picked up four. How many did they pick up here? 350 illegal aliens. Take a look here. Cut four. Here's Florida's Operation One-Way Ticket. Watch this. Handcuffed and shackled. News 6 was at the Brevard County Sheriff's Office canine training facility when dozens of people were brought in for processing after being arrested in a week-long immigration enforcement operation dubbed Operation One-Way Ticket. And this operation sends a clear and uncompromising message.

58:17Florida will not tolerate lawlessness within our borders. Over the span of four days, more than 350 people were arrested in the multi-agency operation, including these arrests yesterday near a construction site on Fisk Boulevard. They will all be deported. More than 350 illegal aliens picked up in that operation in Florida, Operation One Way Ticket. God bless the men and women of law enforcement.

58:41Dan Bongino:God bless the Republican states that are cooperating with the feds to take all of these people into custody, saying, hey, look, you want to come into our country, you got to do it the right way. If you're here the wrong way, well, we're sending you home. And it's nice to see that out there. So I figured I'd end today's program on a good note. We got a lot of good stuff going on in our country. Thank you to the Secretary of War for an amazing speech this morning to the generals and the admirals.
