Did The Democrats Really Just Commit Treason? | Episode 174

27:11Remember this? This came to us last Friday. He said the Democrats are using the Epstein hoax involving Democrats, not Republicans, and they're trying to deflect from their disastrous shutdown. That's what they're trying to do right now. And so what the president is calling for here is a full-blown investigation by the Department of Justice. He wants to look in to Jeffrey Epstein's involvement with Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, JPMorgan Chase, and a lot of other institutions. And as these documents become public, chances are we're going to get some very meaningful progress when it comes to the people that he just mentioned.

27:51I want to take you into the latest because we just got big revelations yesterday. In fact, one Senate Democrat is even involved in helping us get to the bottom of this.

They do. and I was interested to see this one yesterday. I just referenced for you the president's post on Truth Social calling on the Justice Department to launch criminal investigations into Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, and JPMorgan Chase in particular. And that brings me to this report yesterday from a Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee by the name of Ron Wyden. Ron Wyden. And here's what he had yesterday, according to the New York Times, Ron Wyden is pressing for an investigation.

31:42Well, good. Trump's already doing it into JPMorgan Chase and Jeffrey Epstein. Now, the JPMorgan Chase thing is interesting. This is Epstein's bank. It's a huge bank, of course, but it's Epstein's bank. And the bank handled, according to the reports, more than$1 billion in Jeffrey Epstein's suspicious transactions. Remember, the source of Epstein's wealth continues to be a mystery. The nature of all of the money that was flowing into him continues to be a mystery. And there's plenty of credible evidence to suggest that he may very well have been involved in a pretty extensive sexual blackmail scheme.

32:28In other words, some of the money flowing into him, flowing in in order to prevent some very dark and powerful secrets from going public. A billion dollars. The top Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee issued a report yesterday, Thursday, calling for an investigation into whether JPMorgan Chase deliberately underreported more than a billion dollars in suspicious transactions by Epstein. The report said that the compliance failures by the bank during its 15-year relationship with Epstein were alarming and they impeded law enforcement's ability to examine Epstein's finances, basically, and his cross-border sex trafficking organization.

33:10The report is based on unsealed court records. They shed more light on JP Morgan's financial dealings with Epstein, and it focuses on something called suspicious activity reports, SARS. Banks are required to file suspicious activity reports with the Treasury Department anytime they suspect that a financial transaction may be involved in illicit activity, such as money laundering, terrorism, sex trafficking. From 2002 to 2016, J.P. Morgan did file suspicious activity reports covering$4.3 million in transactions with Jeffrey Epstein. But it wasn't until after Epstein's arrest and death in 2019, that the bank reported some$1.3 billion in transactions as suspicious.

34:09They were sitting on$1.3 billion in suspicious activity reports, stuff that they were concerned about internally but didn't tell the government about until after Epstein died. Internal bank emails suggest JP Morgan may have waited to file those reports because it wanted to continue working with Epstein as a source of referrals for business even after firing him as a client in 2013. Now we're getting somewhere. This is about the money, the flow of all of that money and who it was protecting. It's a lot of money. So you have the president of the United States last week announcing an investigation into all of this.

34:55Ron Wyden is inverting things. He's now, I'm calling for an investigation. Too late, pal. It's already happening. President Trump has already commissioned the Justice Department to do this. And Pam Bondi has assigned it to the state of New York, the U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York, to investigate this very thing. So that's happening. Last night on the Fox News channel, Jesse Waters broke this down and said this is a very big deal. A billion dollars for a sexual blackmail, alleged sexual blackmail ring? Take a listen to Jesse's assessment. Cut seven. Trump was trying to be a gentleman and he was going to say a lot of people's lives are going to be ruined.

35:36A lot of people will have their reputations destroyed from innuendo. And I'm sorry, but that's the way it's going to happen. Now, you're right about J.P. Morgan. This is out and it's huge. So J.P. Morgan filed 5000 suspicious activity reports on Epstein. A billion dollars in suspicious financial wires from Jeffrey Epstein. That either one or two things is true. He is either at the center of an international sexual blackmail ring or he's a money launderer. And JP Morgan covered it up. And the Treasury Department's covered up because they get those reports. That's what this has always been about, a sexual blackmail ring.

36:20And that's what I'd like to find out more about. This is so big and it's annoying in the chat. You're right about this. Some people pointing out, why wasn't this done before now? Because the establishment's been protecting all of this information from public disclosure and public consequence. That's why it's as simple as that. There's a lot of people who've been in on it. A lot of people who've been in on it. You know, what's the old George Carlin thing? It's a big club and you ain't in it. That's right. We ain't in it. We're not in the club. That club has been protecting itself until now. You know, Democrats have made a lot of hay out of the Epstein files of late.

36:54They were like, oh, we really care about that because we think it's going to expose Trump. It's not going to expose Trump. It's going to expose you. It's going to expose you. And so they're getting a lot more than they bargained for. President Trump has issued criminal investigations into this. It's his right as the president of the United States. The DOJ works for him. He's assigned them to do this. This is one of the biggest criminal enterprises of our lifetime. A lot of people abused. Let's take it down. Let's go public with all of it. And let's prosecute every last person who deserves it. So JPMorgan Chase in the hot seat now.

37:27Democrats, Ron Wyden pretending like he suddenly wants an investigation. Here's the dirty little secret. Trump's already ordered one. Trump's already ordered one, which I don't think I don't even know if the New York Times bothered to tell people. Yeah, that's that's very good. So thank you to the president of the United States. These Democrats got way more than they bargained for, which was very typical, very, very typical stuff from these idiot Democrats. You want an Epstein investigation? You've got an Epstein investigation. Speaking of the establishment and its abuses, we've got new revelations related to Arctic frost out overnight.

38:08just the news with this coverage Jim Jordan Congressman Jim Jordan of Ohio is the latest we now know to have been spied upon by the Biden administration that's the that's the update today Jim Jordan says the Biden administration was collecting his phone records over the course of two years the house judiciary chairman Jim Jordan Thursday yesterday revealing the Biden administration was spying on him. They subpoenaed his phone records for a two-year period as a part of Arctic Frost, making his records more expansive than other lawmakers. The announcement comes after recent revelations that claim that the Biden FBI did snoop, spy on, the phone records of Republican members of Congress, including eight United States senators during its January 6th investigation.

38:59Jordan said that the Biden administration's Justice Department, the prosecutor Timothy Dorothy Dury, who worked with Thomas Windham, one of Jack Smith's top prosecutors, requested his phone records. Their request sought records from January 1 of 2020 through April of 2022. They spied on two years of phone records. Those records didn't include the contents of Jordan's phone calls or messages, but they did include details about inbound and outbound calls, text messages, direct communications, Okay. I don't care how drilled down it is. I don't care how content rich it is. Jim Jordan was being spied on by the Biden administration, a sitting member of Congress who didn't know anything about it until now.

39:51And by the way, that was by design. The subpoena was also accompanied by a non-disclosure order yet again. That claimed that notifying Jordan of the subpoena could result in ready flight from prosecution, destruction of or tampering with evidence, intimidation of potential witnesses and serious jeopardy of this investigation. Nope. None of those things were at risk. None of that was at risk. You had no business spying on a sitting member of Congress. Hell, you had no business spying on any American without a proper predicate that they had actually committed a crime of any kind. None. None whatsoever.

40:32And yet these guys were rampantly abusing their power. And if this grand jury indictment that we're expecting in January, the grand conspiracy charges is going to capture anybody here, it should capture Jack Smith. It should capture Jack Smith for the rampant, torrential abuses of power that he's guilty of as he weaponized the United States Department of Justice against Americans at an unbelievable scale to include rather brazenly members of Congress and of the United States Senate. Now, this reminds me of something that matters here that we still haven't seen yet, though. Why is it that House Republicans are not moving right now to advance the impeachment of Judge Boesberg?

41:20Judge Boesberg, who was signing off on these spy warrants, who was signing off on these nondisclosure arrangements. Republicans in Congress, look, I know it's like pulling teeth to get lawmakers, including of your own party, unfortunately, sometimes to be interested in the issues that matter to you and to me. But if this affects you personally, if you're being spied upon Jim Jordan, if you're being spied upon Ted Cruz, if you're being spied upon eight United States senators, various Republican congressmen, obviously some of these guys have now come around to the point that, yes, it's impeached, Judge Boesberg.

41:59Let's impose consequences on these guys. Impeach, convict, go for it. But why isn't every Republican clamoring to impose accountability? Why is it that I've got to even mention it? Why does it feel like pulling teeth just to get these guys to do this? And this gets to kind of the overarching point of so many of our programs this week. Next year, we've got the midterms. We're heading into the midterms in 2026. I desperately want Republicans to grow their margins. Because while Republicans are not always on my side, Democrats are always against me. That's just true. You know that to be true. So what we want is a Republican Party that is worthy of our votes.

42:41And I'm going to work hard to make sure people do show up to vote to try and grow these margins. But it's going to really be helpful if you can help me make a better freaking case for why voters should support you. Oh, it's a party that supports accountability. It's a party that imposes consequences on lawbreakers. It's a party that kicks out the bad actors inside of the government. And even if you don't have the votes to do it right now in Congress, you mount a mighty effort to try and make it happen. Add that accountability mission on top of the stack of things you need to do to help bring prices down in the United States, to help make housing more available by deporting illegal aliens and by bringing health care costs down.

43:22You know, I mentioned on the radio show yesterday that I'm glad to see that the Trump administration is focused on bringing health care costs down. And I'm going to mention J.D. Vance in a moment with you because he did he did a great event yesterday. But I mentioned yesterday that the Trump administration is focused on bringing health care costs down about health care affordability. And I got an email from one of our listeners. I love our listeners. But sometimes I feel like not not everyone listens in detail. It's fine. You're busy. But the gentleman who emailed me was like, Vince, like, don't fall for the left's claims about affordability and don't fall for talking about bringing health care costs down.

43:58Anytime the government's involved, it just makes everything more expensive. pause first of all anytime the government takes something over it makes it more expensive i've said that until i've been blue in the face we've seen it happen with higher education we've seen it happen with health care the product becomes way more expensive and way shittier that's a terrible combination let's not do that anymore what i'm calling for to bring health care costs down is to get the government out of the freaking way to stop the cronyism between government and the big insurance companies. So don't confuse me and don't confuse the Trump administration's point here either.

44:40The point that these guys are making and that I'm definitely making is if we're going to cut costs across the board, we cut costs by getting rid of the problems that the government created in the first place. That's how we do it. We do that in the healthcare arrangement. We also to do that for housing. Deport 20, 30 million, whatever number of illegals are here. Deport them from the United States of America. Stop creating additional competition for the scarce resources of a roof over your head, which drives up prices in our housing market. That was a problem created by our government that sought to abuse the American people for their own cruel advantage.

45:16We're ending government created problems. That's how you bring these costs down. And one other thing on costs in terms of how the government has actually increased everything. The national debt's at$38 trillion. You are feeling that in the increased cost of inflation all across the economy. Stopping the government from spending money that they don't have, that's how you save money. That's how you decrease costs in the United States. So as long as the Trump administration's focused on that, I feel good about it. I like that, and I'm going to keep supporting it. Now, yesterday, we got a tale of two Washingtons.

45:49We've got a tale of two Washingtons that I want you to think about. Yesterday, former Vice President Dick Cheney's funeral was happening at the National Cathedral in Washington. The establishment assembled to send him off. The establishment assembled. Yesterday, Dick Cheney's funeral drew big names, New York Post says. Biden, Harris, Maddow. President Trump and J.D. Vance, not invited. I'm not sure they wanted to go anyway. Former Vice President Dick Cheney's funeral drew a robust roster of Democrats who battled with George W. Bush's second in command during his eight years in power. Remember that?

46:45Remember they said Dick Cheney was Darth Vader? And now among the people who were there yesterday, in the front pew, Joe Biden, Jill Biden, Kamala Harris, George W. Bush and his wife, former Vice President Mike Pence, Democrat James Carville was there, Democrat Jamie Raskin, Cosmo Kramer, the wrap-up smear lady, Nancy Pelosi, was there, Anthony Fauci was there. Al Gore was there. Mark Milley, thoroughly modern Mark Milley was there at Dick Cheney's funeral. This was an assembly of the establishment. There's John Boehner. There's Mitch McConnell there. Nancy Pelosi. The establishment assembled.

47:39So the more I saw these guys all gathered together, the guys who in the end have left us with the mess we now have as a country, the more I was grateful that President Trump and Vice President Vance weren't there at all. It's a good thing, actually. There's no love lost, of course, between the Cheneys and the Trumps, but more specifically, there's no love lost between the establishment, all of the people who were gathered there yesterday. and President Trump and the people who support him. I'm perfectly content with President Trump and J.D. Vance not being there yesterday. If I had a choice, if you had a choice between which group of people would you rather spend some time with, do you actually appreciate, do you actually admire, is it the people who are with President Trump or is it the people who are with Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, Anthony Fauci, Mark Milley, and Rachel Maddow?

48:32I know which one I'm picking. And yesterday, J.D. Vance had a great event with a buddy of mine, Matt Boyle. Matt Boyle, you know Matt Boyle from Breitbart News? Great reporter. And J.D. Vance sat with him yesterday to do a big interview. And they talked about a bunch of things, including the people that I just referenced. They didn't mention them by name, but J.D. Vance said the old Republican Party is gone. That old Republican Party, the one that's taken our country astray, that's worked too often with Democrats and selling out our country, that's gone. And he says it's not coming back. Here's J.D.

49:12Vance, cut eight, watch. The American people don't want stupid wars and America's jobs going overseas and wide open borders. That is, whether intentional or not, that was the legacy of the Republican Party that came before Donald J. Trump. I'm glad the president got us away from that Republican Party. It lost, but it was also a disaster for the United States of America. Let's actually have a foreign policy where we focus on the interests of American citizens. Let's have an economic policy that's about building in the United States of America, rather than shipping all of our jobs overseas and getting Wall Street enriched in the process.

49:48Let's have an economic policy that's about more self-sufficiency. I mean, I have three kids. I have an eight-year-old, a five-year-old, and a three-year-old. I don't want to wake up in a country where I take my kid to the doctor and they can't get antibiotics because the antibiotics that were invented in the United States of America are manufactured in some foreign country. That is the legacy of the Republican Party that came before Donald J. Trump. We're not going back. Yes. Yeah, those drugs are made in China and India nowadays. Too many of them made in China and India. We got a really haunting reminder of that during covid as the entire economy was brought to a screeching halt.

50:25And then suddenly there were shortages of everything. And why is that? Well, it's because we're importing the entire planet and we're not making things in the United States sold out by an establishment in Washington over the course of these last decades. J.D. Vance says that Republican Party is not coming back. If if we can continue to vote for rational pro-American thinking, like the kind of thinking and power that's demonstrated by President Trump and J.D. Vance, then we're going to keep improving as a country. So we want to improve the Republican Party. Keep voting for an ideology that actually advances our genuine American interests.

51:01Good for J.D. Vance. In fact, the new paradigm here and the new focus on the stuff that matters to Americans is still stunning Washington. They don't know what to do with this. The Democrats who were negotiating with President Trump during the government shutdown were stunned to hear that President Trump is trying to force them to fix the health care system. They thought it was a talking point that President Trump wouldn't tackle at all. Vice President Vance said, oh, no, President Trump literally offered to fix it. Democrats didn't know what to do with it. Here's what he told Matt Boyle yesterday.

51:34When we got to the serious stuff and they said, we really want to address the health care problem confronting the American people, the president said, well, absolutely, we agree. We want to address the health care problem confronting the American people. In fact, you people screwed it up with Obamacare, the Unaffordable Care Act. And now you're coming to us saying, let's fix it. Great. Let's fix it. And then they said, I think they were kind of caught off guard. And they're like, well, but we want the fix before we before we're willing to open up the government. And the president was like, that's like three days from now.

52:05You want us to fix American health care in the next three days? And unless you do it, you're not going to you're going to shut down the government. How about we open up the government and then work together to fix American health care? And of course, we know the history. They rejected it. They shut down the government. But I don't want to get ahead of the president, Matt, because we had a very, very good meeting in the Oval Office yesterday. I think that we have a great health care plan coming together. I think that it's going to get Republican and Democrat support. I love that. I love that. You heard the scoop there from the from the vice president of the United States.

52:39He said Wednesday, as he's saying this on Thursday, we had a great conversation yesterday. So Wednesday of this week, there was a meeting at the White House that consisted at least of Vice President Vance and others, I presume the President of the United States, where they were discussing what he said is a great health care plan. I'm not getting ahead of the President of the United States. I'm not going to do that. But we've got something great to offer. And he says, I think we can get support from Republicans and Democrats. Now, that last element, getting support from Democrats, that may be overly optimistic.

53:08Democrats have been perfectly comfortable with the crony relationship they have with the insurance companies. I doubt they're going to break free of that spell anytime soon. But if Republicans want to win big in the midterms, these are the kinds of issues that they need to be doggedly focused on. So they should follow the lead of the president and the vice president on this. Speaking of conservatives, it's not it's not a secret that conservatives have been fighting with each other at times pretty aggressively in debates over such things as how many H1B visas do we have in the United States? or, you know, what should the United States' involvement with Israel be and how much armaments should we send to Ukraine?

53:55These are very real debates that happen on the right. And by the way, at their best, it's a very healthy thing to do. Like the right is engaged in far more constructive conversations than anything the left has to offer. The left is not interested in debate. In fact, if you say something nice about Donald Trump on the left, like John Fetterman's been doing, then they're going to look to primary you throw you out of office entirely they're not interested in diversity especially of opinion not on the left you know on the right like we have these real debates jd vance brought this up yesterday and he said look this is great it's perfectly fine to have these these debates but in the end we should remember who the real destructive adversary is here's the vice president we have to remember that we have a lot more in common than we do not in common and that the disagreements that animate the Republican Party, while they matter and they're important, I think these debates should happen.

54:50They should happen in podcasts and they should happen in the media. They should happen on the op-ed pages. So I think my attitude is let these debates play out, but don't let the debates that we're having internally blind us to the fact that we are up against a radical leftist movement that murdered my friend a couple of months ago and that would throw many people in the Trump administration in prison, not for doing anything illegal, but for not following the far left's agenda. That is the real opponent here. A political movement in this country that has no animating principle, that has no agenda for the American people, their sole obsession is to take down Donald Trump and anybody who helped Donald Trump govern.

55:31Focus on the enemy, have our debates, but focus on the enemy so that we can win victories that matter for the American people. That's my message. J.D. Vance, again, right, because Democrats don't have a positive vision for the country. They have nothing positive to sell you. It's why they are constantly trying to sell you on a negative case against President Trump. It's just Trump derangement syndrome all the time, every day, from trying to get him thrown off of ballots, get him arrested, in some cases, at their most radical, to assassinate the president of the United States, and to take up arms against people like Charlie Kirk.

56:05J.D. Vance referencing his friend who was just assassinated. He's, of course, talking about Charlie Kirk gunned down on September 10th of this year by a radical leftist who wanted to silence not just Charlie, but the views he espoused and to intimidate the people who share those views. Of course, we're not intimidated. We've continued. In fact, the extent to which we have these conversations has only grown since Charlie's assassination. The left did not achieve what it set out to do there, but they continue to be on the march. And this is why, you know, we started today with these seditious Democrats who have put a video together encouraging the United States military to disobey the lawful orders of the commander in chief.

56:49Oh, we said illegal. No, you literally meant just disobey Trump because you consider Trump to be, well, a disaster. You hate Trump. You hate him. Everything is animated by your hatred for Trump instead of a positive vision for the country. You have nothing worth buying. So you attack the other guys. It's as straightforward as you can possibly get. J.D. Vance is right. Remember that. Have our debates. We should. But in the end, remember who the adversaries are. All right. Before I go today, I did have a video. I think I promised it to you, although it's not. It's just so goofy. It's. The most flatulent member of Congress has announced that he is running for the governor of California.

57:39Eric Flipping Swalwell is, as you know, a disaster. He appeared on a very low rated show last night called Jimmy Kimmel, which is supposed to be a comedy show. And I guess this is what they consider comedy. comedy eric swalwell is announcing that he's now running for governor of what he accidentally i think because he's an idiot referred to as the country of california i'll tell you what i'm gonna do i love california it's the greatest country in the world country greatest country in the world but that's why it pisses me off to see californians running through the fields where they work from ice agents or troops in our streets it's horrifying it's horrifying notice Absolutely.

58:24Notice he's doing exactly what I just said they're doing. He's running against Trump on the basis of lies. He says that Donald Trump is hurting innocent people. Now, Donald Trump is saving California from the destruction the Democrats have brought up. Or cancer research being canceled. It's awful to look at. And our state, this great state, needs a fighter and a protector, someone who will bring prices down, lift wages up. That's called Donald Trump. And we can say that we're the fourth largest economy in the world, and we are, and I love to brag about that. But what does that mean if you can't afford to live here?

59:00Democrats made it that way. Why is California the most expensive state in the country for gasoline? Democrats. Democrats. Can you believe that the top choices for California are Katie Mashed Potatoes Porter and Eric Fang Fang Swalwell? Those are the options right now in California. The state that gave us Ronald Reagan. When President Trump says make America great again, that's what he's talking about. bring back the Ronald Reagan state, not the Katie Porter and Eric Swalwell state. What a complete disaster.
