Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host, Dan Bongino.

[00:00:11]

So this will be day two of the Dan Bongino show, not talking about the Harry and Meghan interview, which I just don't care about. I don't I will lose my audience altogether before I engage in another hour of wasted time on this stupid interview. Listening to people living in a 14 million dollar mansion complain about being victims. Not my bag of donuts. I just don't care. I don't care. Complained to Oprah. I'm sure Oprah, who lives in a one hundred and forty million quadrillion dollar mansion, probably somewhere she maybe she feels bad for you.

[00:00:45]

I don't. Here's what we're going to talk about, because there's actual substance and stuff that matters is a much better. All right, guys, we don't understand. Like the fourth intro we had this right. Joe is the most jinxed intro in the history of the Dan Bongino show. Many debacles in the beginning of the show tonight. Here's what's going on. H.R. one, the elections bill. Democrats want to corrupt elections from now in perpetuity. Not going to happen.

[00:01:07]

Not on my show video of Joe Biden losing it again, a screenshot from the teachers union in Los Angeles that's not worried about their members not taking vacations. They just don't want photos of it. That and a lot more. All right. Today's show. But to be expressive, stand up for your digital rights today. Get a VPN. Don't wait to express VPN dotcom slash Bongino. Nice. All right.

[00:02:42]

Wow.

[00:02:42]

Yeah, you're making me nervous. You don't understand. After four stops and starts the last one, I'm like, so just so you walked. If you if we have a live stream, which we will then, you know, wink, wink and a nod, we will have some. What you would have seen in the last debacle take three is I'm like, all right, Joe, let's go. Let's go. And then I had a restroom at the candy bar, and you know why Joe didn't read about?

[00:03:07]

Because Joe wasn't there. We lost this connection. I'm like, not usually we just roll right to him.

[00:03:12]

Like, now we're stuck. I don't want to do the show without Joe. All right. Let's get right to it. Number one, exposing the H.R. one scandal. And it is a scandal. This is the House, the Democratic led house, of course, led by Nancy Pelosi. Unfortunately, this is their first bill. It's called H.R. one for this for a reason because this disaster was their number one priority. Why? Because if they can't screw up elections in the future, they never win an election.

[00:03:37]

Nobody actually votes for Democrats. Just to be clear, they vote against Republicans because Democrats have Republicans believing they have excuse me, a voters believing that Republicans are phobic, phobic. It's the Fobbs. That's all they that's my theory. He hasn't heard that theory yet. But but Joe has heard it a million times over. Nobody actually votes to increase their own taxes, send their kids to crappy schools, let the government take over their health care and for instantaneous national bankruptcy by spending money we don't have.

[00:04:05]

Nobody actually votes for that. So how did Democrats continue to win elections? Because they don't focus on what they want to do. They focus on how Republicans are transphobia, homophobes, xenophobes, phobia phobic. It's the phobic phobia, folks. That's all they do. And none of that is actually true, of course. But it gets people to say, oh, my gosh, those Republicans are genuinely evil. I better vote for the Democrats. They're going to protect me from those evil Republicans.

[00:04:31]

And that's how they continue to get elected. Well, what better way to entrench that than to screw up elections for the future by doing everything that would wipe election integrity off the map? So there's a great article in The Federalist. This is a must read. It will be in the show notes. Thank you to Brian from Wisconsin who emailed me where he said he loves the show, knows there's some really good nuggets in the show notes. How do you get the show notes Bunshiro dot com slash newsletter.

[00:04:55]

The newsletter is the show notes or send them to everyone. You'll get this great article by Joy Pohlman in the Federalist 15 Insane Things and Democrats H.R. One Bill to Corrupt Elections Forever Now. I have 15 things with an exclamation point. I had to limit it in the interest of time because there's a lot to get through today to the worst of the worst. There are I'm going to cut it down to four of the 15 things, please read the whole article again in the newsletter.

[00:05:26]

And I think it'll give you a full spectrum of just how bad this thing is, but we're going to narrow it down to the worst of the worst. It's probably more than 15 things that are awful in there.

[00:05:34]

No one should know about this that would eliminate voter ID, election security. Why would we want something like that, you know, showing up and showing a driver's license and things like that? That's crazy. You need a driver's license to buy Alegra in the local CVS or Walgreens, but God forbid you have to show a driver's license to vote. And by the way, the reason I ran this one first and this is no for the voter ID one is because what did I tell you in the intro to the show?

[00:06:02]

Democrats don't get you to vote for them because nobody actually votes to increase their taxes, screw up their kid's education and turn their health care over to the government. That's the Democrats platform, right? Nobody actually votes for that. What they do is they vote against Republicans because Democrats in the media have them believing that they're racist, awful people. What does that have to do with eliminating voter ID and H.R. one? Because every sane person, Joe, understands that, you know, elections are pretty important.

[00:06:31]

Probably not some bold assertion. Oh, my gosh, election for everybody. Yes, it's probably a good idea that you show up with a voter ID with your license on it to show that you're the actual actually the person voting. Everybody gets that. So how did Democrats consistently get people to vote against things like voter I.D. by electing Democrats to office, which had voter I.D.? Because they tell you it's racist, which, by the way, telling you voter ID is racist, is racist in and of itself because the whole premise is stupid.

[00:07:01]

The premise of the anti voter ID bloc in the Democrat Party is this you can't ask black and Hispanic people to produce a driver's license. Why is that? Thank you. Thank you, Joe, for the because my head scratcher does not come up over the R20 microphone like Joe's fancy head scratching sound effect, does it seem that kind of racist?

[00:07:29]

I'm just guessing that allowed the worst thing you can do for a Democrat, the best thing for you, the worst thing for them is to allow them to talk that through. Why exactly is asking a black voter to produce a driver's license? Why is that a racist thing? Then watch the Democrat watch it. They'll say, well, you know, black voters, they're not you know, they don't they don't they can't figure out how to go to the DMV to get a driver's license.

[00:07:54]

Did you just did you just say that? Did you just really say that on an open mic somewhere or on your Twitter account? Because that sounds. Joe just checking. Joe, do we have a racist detector on the phone? Do we do you do if you have Joe has a device. It's called the racist detector. He has it sound here. It sounds like a bell when it go. If you say something sounds racist, a bell goes up.

[00:08:18]

So if you ask a Democrat why voter ID, it's not a good thing. They'll say, well, you know, black voters really can't get an ID because they really can't figure out how to get.

[00:08:30]

That you go to, you go the racist bell to racist detector bell goes, dig, dig, dig, dig. That sounds kind of racist. It sounds kind of racist. But of course, Democrats, their whole ethos is racist now, so here's number one from the Federalist piece, eliminate voter I.D. Why would we want that? After a brief overview of this history of bipartisan support for voter ID law, the letter continues. Voter I.D. laws remain popular, with 35 states requiring some of it.

[00:08:59]

Yet the act H.R. one would dismantle meaningful voter ID laws by allowing a statement as a substitute for document backed identification to attest to the individual's identity and that the individual is eligible to vote in the election. So don't worry, Joe, you don't have to produce a license or a license. All you gotta do is sign something. Yes, I'm definitely the person which you kind of do when you show up to vote anyway. How do they get stupid stuff like this to pass all the time, even though there's a bipartisan consensus that voter ID is probably a good thing again, because Democrats don't get you to vote for their policies, they get you to vote against Republicans by claiming things are racist.

[00:09:40]

The Republicans did, which are actually racist when the Democrats do them. Do you understand? I don't want to dwell on this. I know I'm kind of getting bogged down in it, but it's really important. Do you understand how racist it is to suggest that black. I'm serious. I'm dead serious here. Serious as a heart attack. Do you know how racist it is to suggest that black and Hispanic voters can't figure out how to get a driver's license?

[00:10:07]

Do you have any idea? All right, moving on. Number two, two of our four worst of the worst, 15 things involved in the one disastrous debacle of an election, it's a scandal. This bill is the actual proposal. This bill's a scandal.

[00:10:24]

They're going to register millions of criminally present foreign citizens to vote in what could go wrong there, what could possibly go wrong by forcing states to automatically and duplicative register all people to vote to government outposts such as motor vehicles, state universities and welfare agencies, H.R. one register millions of illegal migrants to vote in the United States. I don't know what could possibly go wrong. So now you have people who've entered the United States illegally. They're like United States immigration laws.

[00:10:56]

Double barrel, middle finger to you. We use the index finger to keep the show relatively family friendly on the video channel. But what could possibly go wrong there by allowing people who have no claim on citizenship rights in the United States to vote themselves benefits despite not doing anything? To work for their citizenship, the legal process oriented way, what could possibly go wrong there? Let's register people in the country illegally to vote and then let's get the same people to make illegal immigration legal so more people come in and vote for more benefits for people who have no claim on legal citizenship in the United States.

[00:11:36]

What could possibly go wrong? Now, you may be saying, gosh, this article has 15 things that are really bad, but I would imagine that I just picked the worst for there are more there are 11 more doozies in there to. So, yeah, no voter I.D. Let's register illegal aliens to vote here. Nothing wrong there. Let's go to the next one. Game day registration. And what would explode opportunities for election cheating, quote, adding to the threat of increased voter fraud, H.R. one would mandate nationwide automatic voter registration and Election Day voter registration.

[00:12:16]

Right. The attorney generals who are were puzzled about this disaster. Such systems would provide too many opportunities for non-citizens and others ineligible to vote to register and cast fraudulent ballots before officials can take preventative action. Seems self-evident, folks, if you're going to mandate game day voting, Election Day voting, then of course you're going to have problems there because there's going to be a crunch to get the election done and over with on game day. They're not going to have time to make sure you're the person you say you are.

[00:12:47]

That one's actually self-evident, but very dangerous in and of itself. Let's get to the last one. They're going to mandate these drop boxes and and they look they're looking to further enhance the mail in ballot voting process. Now, you may be saying to yourself, gosh, mail in voting. That sounds like if we were to do it on a mass scale, a recipe for failure. Don't take my word for it. By the way, take the New York Times word for it.

[00:13:12]

We'll get to that in a minute. But let's get to the final point here from the federalist piece. Here's number 14 of their 15 number four on this show today. It mandates that ballot ballot drop boxes in Section 19 seven, H.R. one would mandate that beginning 45, day 45, that it's not Election Day anymore. It's turning into election year beginning 45 days before an election in each county in the state. They shall provide in-person security and clearly labeled drop boxes at which individuals may at any time during the period drop off voted absentee ballots in an election for federal office.

[00:13:49]

Why do I even bring this up?

[00:13:50]

Oh. A little jumpy today because now, Joe, we're not just talking about mail in voting, we're not even talking about the mail. We're talking about dropping things off in a ballot drop in box. How does that sound? In a ballot drop in box. So now you don't only have the mailman who at least knows your you, who's not there to detect voter fraud at all, we don't even have the mailman. We just have a ballot.

[00:14:20]

Dropbox randomly placed, who knows, in the middle of the desert. If you're voting in Nevada, who knows? Who knows what's in there? Nobody's stopping you. No one's recording you. There's no fingerprint sensors, no voter I.D., no nothing. It's just some random dropping a ballot in a ballot box, no custody, no control over it whatsoever. Mail in voting ballot, not bad enough ballot Dropbox voting is a level below mail and voting and security.

[00:14:47]

Now, this, of course, was a big deal years ago to The New York Times. I've only put this article up on the show at least five or six times. Now, The New York Times was really worried about absentee voting, which again, is even more secure or and I say that sarcastically, but this true is even more kind of semi true sarcastically Babylon bee style on the level of security, absentee and mail and voting is obviously far below in-person voting.

[00:15:13]

All right, we get that. Below all of that at the bottom. Of the totem pole of election security is ballot box dropping, which is not even a mouse, just a ballot by you drop it in there, randomly placed The New York Times in 2012. Adam Liptak, they were concerned about mail in voting and absentee voting. Again, ballot drop box voting is even worse. All that stuff seems to have gone by the wayside now. Why?

[00:15:40]

Back in twenty twelve, I'll show you a piece of the New York Times article, by the way. Error and fraud at issue as absentee voting rises. Adam Liptak, October six, 2012. The New York Times. So I'm sure YouTube will ban this video for even suggesting that you could have problems with mail in voting, even though, again, I'm citing The New York Times. Ladies and gentlemen, you can look up this article yourself. Please do.

[00:16:01]

Don't take my word for it. But I was talking to a guy this morning about this sitting here kind of B.S. about the show, and I was like, you know why New York Times wrote this article back in 2012? Why would The New York Times expose failures in our mail, mail, in and absentee voting process that they're more likely to be be rejected mail in votes for problems? Because back in 2012, absentee voting was largely the purview of senior population in Florida and the military, so they largely voted what, Joe Republican?

[00:16:36]

Yeah. So The New York Times is like, my gosh, we got a problem here. We got an election process, absentee voting that favors Republicans. How do we write a story? Bashan That one. Now that the Democrats are pushing to H.R. one through mass mail and oh my gosh, there's a this is watching the news. They're playing a clip of the covid stock market crash. The stock market down two thousand points like, oh, my gosh, I bet that's not today.

[00:17:01]

No worries. But now that they're pushing for back to the show, they're pushing for mass mail in balloting for everyone and, you know, could benefit Democrats, all of a sudden everybody's quiet about the problems with absentee voting in Maryland. Weird how that happens, isn't it? Quote New York Times, this is not Dan Bongino. This is the new year to stand by reading the New York Times quotes liberals, that means The New York Times wrote this in their piece.

[00:17:28]

That's what quotes mean. Quote, New York Times, yet votes cast by mail are less likely to be counted, more likely to be compromised and more likely to be contested than those cast in a voting booth. Statistics show. Election officials reject almost two percent of ballots cast by mail. That's double the rate for in-person voting. Of course, this article will be memory hall. Now, liberals will pretend it never happened, even though again Adam Liptak at The New York Times.

[00:18:00]

I don't know, Adam. Maybe he's still concerned about it. I'm not sure The New York Times certainly isn't. It's weird that they would write an article in Twenty Twelve when absentee voting favored Republicans, that there was real problems with absentee voting, that the rate of rejection of those ballots was double for in-person voting. And now that they want to drop stuff in a ballot box, strangely, everybody's memory hold everything. Isn't that a little weird? A little strange, Jonah.

[00:18:26]

All right, we always, always, when we cover the media and their selective memory hauling of items they covered in the past and don't cover now always reminds me of an article I keep I keep handy on my phone. It's this one how the media, when they thought Trump was really colluding with the Russians. I can never get rid of this article. It stays up on my phone full time when the media thought Trump was really colluding with the Russians because they're dumb and they believe the hoax, they were more than happy to report about all the people around the world who were spying on the Trump team for the Obama administration.

[00:19:05]

I never suggest you look at this article I keep up on my phone. I'm not a joke. This is from CNN. Yeah. Is it guys? I know. Don't worry. He's going to because he's a perfectionist. He's going to say, Dan, get me that article. Not all. Don't worry. It's a better British intelligence pass. Trump Associates Communications with Russians on the US counterparts. CNN admitting the British were spying on the Trump team for the Obama administration.

[00:19:26]

That article, again, totally memory hole. You go to Wikipedia that like Spygate, it's a hoax. That didn't really happen. You dunce's reported on it because you thought it was real at the time because you're Dunce's and now they memory hole everything, just like The New York Times will memory hole the entire piece about the problems with mail and voting.

[00:19:47]

Oh, man, I love my job, but it is it is frustrating. All right, let me get to my second sponsor today, our friends at LifeLock. With the tax deadline approaching, it's important to take steps to avoid being victim of tax scams. Cyber criminals have used Social Security numbers to file fake returns in an attempt to steal refunds, file early, be aware of suspicious activities related to your return and find out if you're eligible to apply for an IRS identity protection pin.

[00:20:14]

It's important to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting our lives. Every day we put our information at risk on the Internet. In an instant a cyber criminal could harm because yours, your finances and your credit. Good thing there's LifeLock. LifeLock helps detect a wide range of identity threats like your Social Security number for sale on the Dark Web. If they detect your information has been potentially compromised, they'll send you an alert. I played for you last week, an actual voicemail I got from LifeLock after someone checked my credit.

[00:20:40]

And thankfully, it was an authorized credit check, but a couple of times it hasn't been. And you're like, okay, now let me get on top of that. LifeLock stays on top of it for you. Listen, no one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but you can keep what's yours with LifeLock identity theft protection.

They go to a hospital and they use the kid's insurance information. People aren't the kid secure their identity to LifeLock Dotcom Bongino save twenty five percent off. Today is absolutely worth your time. All right. Moving on, folks. This is really important. I have been warning you repeatedly.

[00:21:31]

Repeatedly. About Joe Biden losing his grasp on reality, it gives me absolutely no joy in saying this. I'm going to play this clip. You may have seen it on new shows that have been covering it since yesterday afternoon. So, you know, I don't like to do things you can see on the news every day because I don't want to waste your time or make anything redundant. But I'm going to take this video from a different angle. I want to show you a follow up from Twitter after it.

[00:21:53]

That's important. And show you how, again, the media memory holds things because they're obviously in the tank is full time liberal activists. And that memory holding of things is causing people in some cases to die like they did in New York when they refused to cover Andrew Cuomo fairly, who put Korona patients into nursing homes which promptly killed people. Here's the video. This is Joe Biden, he's discussing the promotion of two female army officers or military officers to a higher rank.

[00:22:26]

He has is off to his left side. He has his defense secretary, Lloyd Austin, Secretary Austin. Except. Joe Biden forgets the name of the department. And the name of the secretary folks, again, I kid you not, this gives me no joy. And I don't think Joe Biden is a good guy, but I don't wish ill on anyone. I'm sorry, but, you know, I. I'm not here to pump my chest and throw my faith in your face.

[00:22:59]

It's not ethical or moral to do that, but he is a bad guy. But I really don't wish ill on anybody. This guy is falling apart, and I'm telling you, everyone around him knows it. This is an existential threat for us right now. If this guy gets worse, he has the nuclear codes in his hand and he's losing his grip on reality. Don't take my word for it, sadly. Watch it yourself.

[00:23:25]

I want to thank you both. And I want to thank the former general who keep calling him general. My, my the guy who runs that outfit over there. I want to make sure we thank the secretary for all he's done to try to implement what we just talked about and for recommending these two women for promotion. Thank you all and God bless you all. And may God protect our troops.

[00:23:52]

I mean, really, folks, what else what else do you need to see or hear? He does not. You have to understand, it's not just that he doesn't know Lloyd Austin's name. He doesn't even know the department. The guy who runs that outfit over there, you mean the outfit responsible for the nuclear triad? I mean, is that what you mean? The guy responsible for managing one of the largest and the most deadliest are the deadliest army in the world, the most powerful army in human history.

[00:24:27]

You don't even know the department. Now, of course, Twitter, which has turned into a full time publisher, anyone who believes Twitter is an honest, unbiased platform, I'm sorry, please seek psychological assistance immediately. I'm sorry you're lying to yourself and you've convinced yourself you're lying to yourself. You've convinced yourself, you're telling yourself the truth, even though you're lying to yourself. Very sorry to hear that. Here's Twitter. Twitter, of course, it has to run cover because they're a publisher, they're not a platform.

[00:24:58]

And the media folks who have to run cover for Biden's clearly deteriorating cognitive condition right now. They got something trending on Twitter right away, which is Tim Apple, you can see this is just an actual screenshot from my phone. Tim Apple. The hell that have to do with Biden losing his grip on reality and forgetting the name of the Defense Department and Lloyd Austin? Well, of course, instead of keeping it on Biden, who is now the president of the United States, they have to make it about Trump to distract you.

[00:25:27]

It's the shiny red ball look, shiny red ball squirrel. That's what they do. They have to keep your mind off that. So, Tim Apple Trump talking about Tim Cook. From Apple once called him Tim Apple. Here's the difference, Trump actually knew the man's first name and that he worked for Apple, which is a step above a step above Joe Biden, who didn't even know the man's first or last name or the Department of Defense. Kind of a big deal, folks, but of course, Twitter and their media friends and the Blue Checkmark Brigade Brigade on the left has to do what they have to make it about Trump to distract you from the fact that you think a sane person would be remotely curious, the fact that the guy who's got his finger on the nuclear button, the one single human being, you can do it without anyone else's input.

[00:26:16]

You would think they'd be concerned about that, that he's losing his grasp on reality. No, I'm not concerned at all. They're more concerned about Trump. Saying Tim Apple. All right, moving on. I saw this this morning and. Again, not to be overly hostile on today's show, because I my my family is chock full of teachers and I really deeply respect what you do. I mean it yourself. I've heard you say they're really my life was changed by good teachers.

[00:26:47]

I can't say it enough. I like to give them shout outs during the show. I don't even know if a lot of them are still alive, but I had Miss Norteño in fourth grade. I went to Catholic school and Sister Ellen and third grade sister Ellen was she was strict.

[00:27:00]

That was the old days. Remember the old days where they could go, remember, they could kind of rap on the knuckles with a ruler. You remember that? Those were people like, oh, my gosh, you know, snowflake culture now is probably horrified. Like, what was that, a horror movie? No, that was school. Like, they used to be able to do that. They were a little tough. I had Miss Brophy.

[00:27:16]

I don't think she's alive anymore. But I had I remember I had really good teachers and I loved teachers. You do a great job. I'm telling you, though, as a friend and believe me, I am a friend. You can change the world. And and there's an interesting article in the show, notes and I have to get off topic. This is directly related. There's an interesting I'm not going to cover it, but it's in my show, notes Bungeni, that consolation newsletter about.

[00:27:37]

This guy in this optimistic note about education in the future in the United States, I know we're all down on it, but I just want to give you some good to read that. So teachers are doing really a good public school, strong, solid public service, but their unions are a total disaster. And it's up to you teachers right now to clean them up. Here is the teachers union in Los Angeles who posted on some private Facebook group, this is ridiculous.

[00:28:01]

Notice what they don't say here. Let me get over it. Let me get I'm going to get to what they say and then want to say what they do, because it's really tough for me to get over how. Unbelievably out of touch. This is one of those like let them eat cake moments, here's a post on a private Facebook group, friendly reminder to the teachers union members. If you are planning any trips for spring break, please keep that off of social media.

[00:28:27]

It's hard to argue that it's unsafe for in-person instruction if parents in the public see vacation photos and international travel. Did you notice what this doesn't say? You pick up on this. It doesn't say, ladies and gentlemen, the teachers union, we are in the middle of a deadly pandemic, so dangerous we can't even go back to school. It is so dangerous. We highly recommend in the health interests of our members of the Teachers Union of Los Angeles that you do not travel internationally or go on vacation, have an unnecessary contact with potentially infected human beings if you are in some twenty eight days later disaster.

[00:29:05]

Remember that movie? That's a classic, by the way. And the other one, what is it? Twenty eight weeks later is just as good. Very rare. The sequel to be as good as the first Aliens and Empire Strikes Back only and maybe twenty eight weeks later, if you were in the middle of a scenario like that where a deadly virus was creating zombies, you would probably Joe correct. If you were the teachers union rep, you would say, hey, listen, it's probably a really good a really bad idea to go travel to the United Kingdom during the twenty eight, twenty eight days later debacle, because I don't want you to become a flesh eating zombie.

[00:29:36]

Very bad. What you wouldn't tell them is if you go to the infected flesh eating zombie area of the United Kingdom in the twenty eight days later movie, which is a classic you would say you don't want to say just don't take pictures because it'll look bad on Instagram. I'm just just checking. Just checking. Or what was that was the other movie Contagion, was it Contagion? I think that was the Matt Damon. I'm terrible with movies. Forgive me.

[00:30:03]

My brain file for movies is severely overloaded. The medulla oblongata is not connecting to the cerebral cortex. It's just not the pyramids are not dequeue seine for all you neuroanatomy folks out there.

[00:30:19]

I used to love that. The declaration of the pier. Check it out. Put it in a search engine. You'll figure it out. But if you had that movie Contagion with this deadly virus wipes out a billion people across the earth, wouldn't you tell your members in the union, hey, it's probably not a good idea to travel to an infected area? You could. That's not what they say. They say just don't take pictures. Because of what?

[00:30:43]

Because why? Because, ladies and gentlemen, they know that this is a deadly pandemic. Five hundred thousand people have died in the United States, but they know the risk to the students and the teachers are very low. So they tell their members, hey, if you're going to travel, whatever, do your thing. Just don't take any pictures. But don't worry. They're in it for the ready for the kids. You've read my mind, just think you mean we got together like a time Mark, you know what the great part about having a show like this is?

[00:31:17]

You know, it's it's you're not limited by a time clock like you would be on a national radio show so you can do the spots when you want. So I got to get them all in all four. So sometimes she gives me a little hint and he throws them up. But I think, gee, I think like first spot, it's funny how we think this through with the audience. What do you think, folks? First spot we do like right away, obviously second spot, like the 18, 19, 20, no more than 20 minutes.

[00:31:40]

Right. What do you think. The third. Yeah. 30 to thirty five. Last one, maybe 45. No later than 50. They go we're working through the rules on the air right here because that's what we do. All right, listen, coming up next, after the spottier. I I have a really not family friendly title, the segment that I don't know if it's appropriate, but I'm going to say it anyway and I may I don't know if I'm banned from terrestrial.

[00:32:05]

Just kidding. To my Westwood One partners. I wouldn't do that to you. OPM, you know what OPM is. Of course you do, because you listen to my Tizer post on telegram or you heard the beginning of show other people's money.

[00:32:18]

When you're spending other people's money, it causes a lot of problems, but it's great for you. So I have this titled When to Underline This Baby OPM.

[00:32:28]

Yeah, baby, exclamation point. Everybody loves spending, it rhymes with something that has a cadence. Yeah, with a dash, yeah. Exclamation point. Everybody loves spending other people's money. Wait till you hear what you're spending other people's money on in this poor Occulus Bill that they pretend this about covid because it ain't and ain't is a word in this case. All right, today's show back to my buddies at my lifesaver, friends at Max, living with chronic pain is the worst.

[00:32:58]

Unfortunately, I know that it affects your entire life. It stopped me from working out at times. It really interrupts my sleep. I have really bad shoulders, a terrible neck. And I just found out I have another rotting disc in my back, which is just wonderful. They found that on my CD and an MRI scan. So that's not good. Living with paints things. You want to get rid of those nagging pains and your muscles and your joints immediately and get long lasting recovery.

Again, you know, really bad decisions are made with OPM, ladies and gentlemen, other people's money. Now, it's a byproduct of having to do business. I mean, not everybody has the capital in their bank account to start up a business.

[00:35:01]

So they do things like taking investors, doing liquidity events, going public. The problem with the government is the Republican is one big liquidity event. Right? They take your liquidity from your bank account and make an event about it by spending other people's money. This stimulus bill that's allegedly for coronavirus stimulus after the economy is a total disaster, it's one point nine trillion dollars in a walk us down the path to bankruptcy quicker than anything we've seen in modern times.

[00:35:29]

And ladies and gentlemen, we are getting darn close to a natural bank excuse me, a national bankruptcy disaster. I want to point out a couple of things the stimulus is going to pay for, and I want you to ask yourself. How do you feel, honestly, about having to pay for other people's trash pickup and welfare programs in big cities despite moving out of areas that have big welfare programs in big cities? How do you feel about paying for other people's retirement and how do you feel about paying for other people's college now?

[00:35:58]

I know there are liberals listening. And some of the liberals listening are like, well, I don't see a problem, it's the right thing to do. Right now, I can hear it, now I can hear it echoing in their in their cortex, in their frontal cortex banging around. I can hear it. I can hear them saying, oh, then, you know, listen, we're the most prosperous country on earth. It's the right thing to do to pay for people's retirement and to pay for people student loans and to pay for welfare programs in big cities despite the fact that they're going bankrupt.

[00:36:28]

So I ask you this. It's a very simple question, and I'd like you to consider it. I'm being serious here. Not a joke. If it's the right thing to do, why do you need the government to tell you to do it? Why not just do it? If you believe illegal immigration is absolutely terrific and fantastic all the time, that why don't you just take in a bunch of illegal immigrants who came to the country? I didn't let him, but let him just live in your house.

[00:36:54]

Why don't you do that? No one does that, of course. Matter of fact, if you were to ask him to do it, they would mock you, tell, you know, and suggest you were crazy.

[00:37:01]

But because people like to impose costs on others while virtue signaling themselves. So it's easier to have the government do it because they feel like they're spending o p m. Other people's money, let's look at number one, this is a tweet I saw from Tricia Finnane. She's blue checkmark. So I guess this is some kind of reporter, the San Francisco Chronicle. The stimulus bill contains a bunch of state and city bailouts stuff. So you're going to bailout places you've moved out of, like San Francisco in New York.

[00:37:34]

Check this out.

[00:37:35]

The federal stimulus, the federal stimulus package will erase the majority of San Francisco's projected 650 million dollar budget deficit over the next two years. Isn't that wonderful? Saving City Hall from having to make painful service cuts and layoffs for now. Now, again, a liberals like what's the problem? And of course, federal tax money should go to pay off the profligate San Francisco city government for their big welfare programs, their big government liberal agenda. And I just found out I read something on social media that San Francisco had a program to purchase weed and booze for homeless folks they put up in hotels.

[00:38:11]

That sounds like a real gem. So, again, if you want to buy weed and booze for people where it's legal, then just do your thing. Just go do it. I think it's a really terrible idea, but don't ask me to pay for it, too. And if you think it's so wonderful and so benevolent, you're so philanthropic and such a wonderful asset to our society, then just go do it without the government telling you. I live in Florida, we have a.

[00:38:37]

A relatively well controlled state budget. Despite having more people than New York, we have a budget, that's, what, 20, 30 percent less than New York's budget. I like that that's the reason I moved out of New York. I don't want to pay off New York New Yorkers or anyone else. That's why I live here. I want my tax money going to my roads, to my traffic lights, to my cops, to my firemen for my trash pickup.

[00:39:10]

I don't want to pay for New York City trash pickup in the middle of downtown Manhattan. Sorry if you want to do it, go right ahead. I'm sure New York City and New York State has a little box on their tax return forms, file a tax return and give them a bunch of dough. Nobody's stopping you, but you won't do it because your phonies. So be paying off other state budgets, that sounds absolutely terrific and by terrific, I mean, it really sucks.

[00:39:39]

What else are you paying for? New York Times? Headline rescue package includes eighty six billion dollar bailout for failing pensions. This is great. Now you're paying for everyone else's retirement, too. Then we should do that. Pensions are going broke, folks. I don't have a pension. I pay for my own pension through my work and through my company. Why do I have to pay your pension, too? Because your pension fund. Could management manage it then?

[00:40:07]

You're being mean. I'm not being mean. You're being you're not giving the money. So your neighbors in a pension fund. I'm being real. You're being disingenuous. I'm at least being authentic. You're a liar. Your neighbors in a pension fund that bankrupted itself, you're not giving the neighbor money. Why not just help people in your local community? We do. Oh, yeah, we got receipts, I don't need someone to force me to do it.

[00:40:38]

Why don't you do it? I'm not going to pay off my neighbor's pension. Why not? Or you want me to do it? Despite the fact we already give a lot of money to show you want me to do it. You want me to pay your New York City neighbors pension who was involved in a pension fund that went broke because they couldn't manage it, but you don't want to give them any money, you just want me to do it.

[00:41:02]

OPM, baby. Oh, yeah, oh, poor baby. Other people's money, everybody's always generous, but other people's money, so we should pay for weed and booze in San Francisco, shall we should bail out pension funds, my pension funds, my pension fund struggling. Maybe I should bail me out. I no, you should bail out the neighbors pension. So just give them money. Just give them the money. I'm not giving them the money.

[00:41:30]

That's crazy. Oh, you want me to do it. Makes perfect sense to liberals. By the way, here's the last gem here. I caught this yesterday in the Wall Street Journal, actually discussed it on Sean Hannity's show last night. Things you won't hear about everywhere else. Wall Street Journal editorial board has this piece. Pop, last night, six thirty three p.m. Eastern is worth your time. Tax forgiveness for student loan forgiveness, Democrats grease the budget wheels for writing off debt by Biden decree.

[00:41:58]

Let me translate that title because I read this piece and I thought, oh, my gosh, are these Democrats devious? What are they up to now? You've got to have like a. B.S. detector on high alert for Democrats all the time, so not only are you paying off profligate cities and states that have ridiculously high taxes and buy booze and weed for people in hotel rooms, not only are you paying for other people's retirement despite trying to fund yours, but you're also paying off your well-to-do neighbors kids college fund.

[00:42:28]

Now, here's what they slid in. This is portcullis bill. You ready? He's like sitting there with bated breath, because I don't tell him this, I just send him the headline for a reason, because then he gets to read the screenshot screenshot and I wanted to see I want to get a genuine reaction, so. If you discharge student loan debt, so say Joe Biden and the Democrats get together a bill to discharge the one point, what is it, six trillion dollars in outstanding student loan?

[00:42:55]

We're going to forgive it all, which is nonsense. All debts are paid right by the debtor or the creditor. Right. I lend you money and you don't pay it back.

[00:43:03]

The debts paid off. I paid it for you because you never paid me back. If you pay it back, you paid it. All debts are paid, right, Milton Friedman. All debts are paid. The debtor or the creditor. There is no such thing as loan forgiveness. That's a myth in liberal land. So if Joe Biden was to quote, forgive student loans, meaning the taxpayers would pay for it, this interesting thing happens. And I was unaware of this, Joe.

[00:43:24]

When Obama took hold of the student loan market when he was in office, is the government now runs the student loan market. And they wanted loan forgiveness built in through various programs they did. They couldn't waive the tax consequences because then they couldn't go through budget reconciliation and it wouldn't be budget neutral. That's a little overly complicated. The bottom line is this. If you discharge student loan debt and I tell Joe Armacost, Joe, your student loan debt is wiped out.

[00:43:53]

Thanks for playing. Joe still has to pay taxes on that discharge, the amount it has to pay it in the year it's discharged. Huh, what did the Democrats do, these little snakes, they snuck into the particulars, Bill, a waiver of that tax liability in the year of the discharge of the debt. Meaning not only are you on the hook for your neighbor's pension, your neighbors, you know, weed and booze if you live in San Francisco, but you're also going to pay for their college because they're going to your tax dollars already paid them off and they don't have to pay the debt back.

[00:44:28]

But even the tax liability for the benefit of having their tax data have to pay taxes on to benefit. Clearly, you were given a lot of money. Your debt was paid off by the creditor, right? Your tax bill gets wiped clean, too. They stuck that in the populist bill. How do you like that one? Not only enough to pay your debt, you don't even have to pay the taxes on the debt, which would be a fraction of the debt, which would pay off only a fraction of what taxpayers paid you to go to college.

[00:44:52]

Sounds great. Sounds great if you're a lib, doesn't it? Again, liberals love this because a lot of them are dunce's. But you know, sixty four trillion dollar question, maybe literally at some point is if you want to pay for your neighbor's pension and their booze and weed and their kids college, why not just pay them? Why go through the government, that's crazy, then am I going to give my neighbor a check for his kids college?

[00:45:18]

Why? So you want me to do it? You add that makes sense to you. No, no, we want taxpayers to. OK, taxpayers are people like me, they're not space aliens. They're real people. That's what taxpayers are. You don't want to pay for your neighbor's kid's college, you could do it the rent cut the government out. Why not do it? Just write him a check. My neighbor, my neighbor's got a lot of money to pay for his own kids college.

[00:45:42]

Yeah. Yeah, exactly. So you want me to pay for it? And Joe and Paula Engie, you want all of us to pay for. And then even the fraction of the tax bill we get back, you don't want them to pay that either. Yes, sounds fair. Thanks, guys. Nice work. Want to get to a piece of video next, but here's this by John Solomon. You know, the spy, you haven't been covering Spygate a lot because I'm I'm I'm really starting to believe nothing is ever going to happen out of this.

[00:46:12]

My skepticism grows by the minute. Seriously, I covered it and you know what? Three books and on my show extensively. But I'm sadly convinced nothing's ever going to happen. But this final story to Blaze will be in the show. Notes is important to. Not only are you paying for your neighbor's trash, pick up their booze, their weed, their retirement, their kid's college and the tax bill on their kid's college tour, once they wave it, you're also paying illegal immigrants and prisoners to.

[00:46:36]

Gee, that sounds fair, Chris. Low the blaze. Democrats reject efforts to prevent stimulus checks from going to prisoners and illegal immigrants. Prisoners do not pay taxes. Taxpayers pay for their every need. Chris and Lou, the daily the excuse me. Folks, sounds like a great bill, and yet again, you want to give prisoners money, why not just go do it? You want to give people who are legal immigrants money. You're not going to do that.

[00:47:04]

You don't even take them in and take care of them. Now, despite your your silly virtue signaling that you do, you don't do that now. So not only you're not going to take illegal immigrants in and take care of them, you're definitely not going to give them your money. You just want us to do it. And prisoners to this is really insane. All right, on the other side of this, I've got an interesting video from Maria Bartiromo show a short clip of John Solomon suggesting something important that would matter again and again.

[00:47:34]

I'm just putting this out there now. I am because I have become sadly extremely skeptical that there's going to be any accountability long term for the Spygate debacle with the Obama administration spied on the Trumpy, I wish I didn't have to say that, but I do. But it is worth covering because if true. Who knows, it could be a decent break and you need to know about it. All right. Our final sponsor today, our friends, it's simply said you have 33 minutes.

[00:47:59]

You never have to worry about a break in at home ever again. That's how quick and easy it is to set up a security system from simply safe. It's the kind of thing it's so easy to do. You can do it during a Netflix binge, watching the game or listening to a certain podcast. Simply say if it's super easy to set up, we love it.

[00:48:15]

The app on my phone again is easy to use. And you know, I'm not big with the tech stuff. If I can figure it out, you can. It's incredibly easy to customize for your home. How do you do it? Get this. You are all right. Go to simply safe dotcom. Dan Bongino. You can easily choose the exact sensors you need to get help from one of their experts. It's that simple. It'll get to your house in about a week.

[00:48:35]

It means by the time next week comes around, your whole family can go to bed knowing you guys are guarded and see if it's easy for everyone in the house or that to make to make them feel super safe. But they may not. It's worthwhile to talk about it, ask them simply say if it's a small, easy step to make sure everyone feels safe at home. Paula, set our system up. I'm not kidding. I went and took a snoozer in the middle of the day.

[00:48:56]

The system was already set up. We got a camera right there. We got cameras all over the house. We love it. And again, the app is super easy to use. How do you get it? You go to simply safe dotcom Dan Bongino today to customize your system and get a free security camera. You also get a 60 day risk free trial. So there's nothing to lose. That's simply with an ISIS employee. I simply saved Dotcom.

[00:49:17]

Dan Bongino, get that. You are right. And I just like to thank. Simply say, I didn't tell you I was going to do this, but I got a nice listener email from someone, I'm not going to say the circumstances or anything like that, don't worry. But it was a person who had an issue in their personal life and called simply safe and had a few questions and simply say found out the details of what had happened and not kidding.

[00:49:43]

This is not some like, you know, let's make up a fake email story to social media and simply say, did something really amazing, like really help this person out? You know who you are. Send me the email and simply say if I want to. Thank you. That was really special. Paula told me the story yesterday. She does a lot of the correspondence with a lot of the listeners. It was very nice. I mean, it was extreme customer service, really.

[00:50:05]

So thanks. Simply safe. Cool. Very nice. Do you have my deep appreciation? All right.

[00:50:09]

Getting back to this show. So I saw this video creep up on my daily morning show prep, which starts at the crack of dawn these days. John Solomon was on with Maria Bartiromo, who has been all over the Spygate scandal, and he says that we may have a dipsy do flipper. Barofsky coming up. What's the dipsy do? Flippers. It's a very scientific term.

[00:50:30]

That means someone. May be given up information inside the FBI, which would be very helpful, obviously, because you want someone who is in all these internal meetings when they were planning on how they were going to spy on the Trump team, because that's exactly what happened to have someone inside the FBI.

[00:50:48]

Do you understand the importance of this folks who was actually in the room and can testify to testify to the motivations and the language used by people who tried to justify spying on a presidential campaign? You know how important that would be. Solomon seems to hint in this video clip I'm going to play right now that someone has done the dipsy do flip through and is now talking to the investigators about what exactly happened in the Spygate scandal. Check this out.

[00:51:13]

Welcome back. We're back with just the news editor in chief, John Solomon. And John, you've done such excellent reporting on the Russia hoax, among other stories. What can you tell us in terms of where we are with the John Durham criminal investigation? And has there been a break in the case? There has yes, it's a very active criminal case, a lot of witnesses, a lot of negotiation with lawyers. The big news is that a former member of the KOMY McCabe inner circle, one of the senior FBI executives, I don't know which one yet, but one of them has begun cooperating.

[00:51:43]

And that's opened up a tremendous amount of internal knowledge, being able to describe the nuances of evidence. Very big breakthrough for John Durham. Now, if true. And Sollom is very clear he doesn't know who it is. I have some speculation, I think it could be. That would be big. I'm not overselling any of these folks again, I know many of you are just fatigued by this, but you can't get fatigued because what the Democrats want is they just want the story to go away and they want you to say, oh, enough already.

[00:52:15]

I've heard enough about this. Everybody move on. No, we're not moving on, they spied on Donald Trump. Damn it, I want to know who did it and why. Now you got a guy or a woman, potentially a source who's talking. Who's Chadi right now, who's telling investigators exactly why they did it, that's important why, folks? Because it establishes motive. Motive is critical. Motive means something. It matters in a criminal case if the FBI's going to suggest they did things without a political motive and did it because they had evidence, we spied on Trump because we had evidence that someone was in the room.

[00:52:53]

And found out that in that room they didn't have any evidence and the people in the room just hated Donald Trump. That's kind of important. Now, it could be a number of figures. I've always been. Suspicious of people at the top of the FBI because one of them was allowed to stay behind Bill Price, then who is the supervisor, Peter Stroke, who ran the Spygate operation on Trump, and Joe Pianka did a lot of the interviews.

[00:53:19]

If Lennon was involved in it to try, Step was their supervisor. I don't know if it's him or not. He's flip, but he wasn't fired by the FBI. So I wonder often, is he one of the people who's been feeding the investigators information? I don't know, but that'll be interesting. That would be interesting. He clearly knows a lot. He was I mean, beneath Jim Comey and Andy McCabe, he was the single most powerful FBI figure involved in this case.

[00:53:46]

It would be fascinating if he turned what I say in the movies turns state's evidence left because nobody actually said that. But if he turned and flipped and did the dipsy do flip around, that would be fascinating. One more thing in the Spygate case, I want to get onto this story. Hat tip hands moqui, there was a text they saw on his social media feed to this is farseeing. Remember the ICJ, the intelligence community assessment that the Obama administration put out on January 6th right before Donald Trump was about to take office?

[00:54:16]

Yeah, you remember that the intelligence committee said 70. Remember, folks, you may know it as the 17 intelligence agencies said Donald Trump colluded with the Russians. Of course, that was all made up. There's no evidence of that. That was all based on nonsense and garbage and only stupid people fell for it. But one of the big scandals that Stephen McIntyre, who is a climate audit on social media, on Twitter. One of the biggest scandals of this whole thing I've argued from the beginning is one that you paid an FBI informant to spy on the Trump team.

[00:54:44]

That's bad enough, like your tax dollars paid to spy on the Trump team. But I'd say either one or two in the biggest component of the Spygate scandal is the fact that the ACA was used as justification to investigate Donald Trump for collusion with the Russians. That didn't happen. And it was pushed out to the media. And one of the biggest scandals here is that 17 intelligence agencies. It's not exactly true, by the way, but the media said it, 17 intelligence agencies approved of this.

[00:55:13]

Well, now we have this text and let me tell you something, this is a real eye opener. This is a text exchange from Jonathan Mafa, who is involved in the investigation at the supervisory level, and Lisa Page from the FBI. He was kind enough to make this more user friendly for our viewers on Rumbo, but I'll read it to you. Here's the Moffa page messages, which is titled Handily Joe the Moffa page messages from It's crazy how he found it here.

[00:55:41]

So here's Mafa. Here's Page. Holy moly. How do they justify not using it? What is it and what is she talking about? She's talking about how the intelligence community was very hesitant to use the dossier in drawing up this intelligence community assessment launched in January of 2017, suggesting Trump was colluding with the Russians. Response back. Exclamation point. Exclamation point. Exclamation point. Although at the end of the day, if we gave it to them and they don't include it, that's on them, we just don't approve and they can push without our coordination.

[00:56:16]

Response we can't not approve and not dissent, that's an approval if you don't approve, you have the right of dissent, which which we probably don't want to do. That's the challenge. Ultimately, what they wrote is not wrong. It just doesn't give all the details. We're working through it. Let me translate that for you. Somebody in the FBI wants really badly to include the people in that intelligence community assessment. They leaked to the media to make sure the media knows that Trump was colluding with the Russians.

[00:56:44]

And 17 intelligence agencies agree. And yet they're so uncertain about its content because it's all garbage, Joe, that they're worried about having to write a dissent about it. Weird, huh? Real weird, sure. Strange how that stuff happened and still the move on, everybody. Tonight, I'll move on when I want. Thank you very much. Almost got through all my stuff today. All right, last story, I'll make this one a quick one again in my show notes, but it's an important one.

[00:57:18]

This is a very long article by Neil Ferguson, but worth your time. It's about the inflation menace beating down our door. Be very careful. I have warned you and I will continue to warn you that the biggest threat to our economy right now is uncontrolled inflation. This article is in our Bloomberg opinion, Bloomberg, I know, but it's worth your time again, it's available in the show notes Bunshiro dot com slash newsletter. It's long, but if you really want a manifesto about the potential inflationary tidal wave coming ashore, then read this piece.

[00:57:54]

The title of the piece is this The Fed doesn't fear inflation. Its critics have longer memories. Milton Friedman saw the great uptick of the 1970s coming, and Larry Summers has similar warnings today. Jerome Powell of the Fed would do well to listen. Ladies and gentlemen, Larry Summers is a Democrat. He was Clinton's treasury secretary and Larry Summers, a Democrat, I would say left leaning, but not super liberal Democrat, is warning I can't say this enough, a Democrat that, hey, this Joe Biden populist bill, OPM baby.

[00:58:32]

Yeah. That the stimulus bill may cause a mass inflation like we haven't seen since the 70s. Well, before I get to a screenshot from this piece showing you how bad this could get, I just want to point to the fact that inflation almost always is a phenomenon that destroy it's it's regressive. It destroys people lower down on the income scale more than it destroys everyone, but more so than it destroys the rich and the wealthy. Why, Joe?

[00:59:03]

Because the wealthy and the rich have tools to deal with inflation. The Treasury inflated tips bonds. Protected bonds, hedging tools, foreign currencies, the rich all have access to that, do you? You may be saying that I don't have access that, OK, I made my point. Inflation will decimate two groups of people, seniors on a fixed income. So you have seniors right now that live on a fixed income. They get the same amount of money roughly every single month, Social Security, whatever it may be.

[00:59:34]

How's that going to feel when that same amount of money buys you cat food to live off for dinner every day? It sounds kind of crappy, doesn't it? That's what's going to happen. That's what inflation does, you get paid the same money and that same money buys you less and less and less. Used to buy you steak, then it buys you sirloin, then it buys you chicken and it buys you boloney, and then it buys you cat food and then it buys you death.

[01:00:06]

That's how dangerous inflation is. So, number one, the number one group that's going to be damage are seniors on fixed incomes, which are a lot of folks have a lot of seniors. Listen to my show. The second will be the poor. Who can't hedge against inflation because they don't have access to the same financial tools rich people do, you guys want to pay a boatload of money for a fancy financial adviser? Lucky to even take you as a client.

[01:00:32]

And your purchasing power, if your power goes down the tubes. Can't even fill up your gas tank anymore because your money doesn't buy but a gallon of gas. So it's incredible that liberals promoting this populist bill with OPM that's going to blow up our budget and cause mass inflation by printing a bunch of money we don't have, don't seem to give a damn about the inflation threat, despite the fact that it's going to destroy the people. Liberals claim to care about seniors and the poor.

[01:00:59]

Here's a piece from this snippet from this Bloomberg article that should scare the hell out of. Read the whole piece, though, again, it's worth your time. Quote, On Thursday, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell made the latest of multiple attempts by Fed officials to reassure markets they have nothing to fear from a temporary bout of higher inflation as the economy emerges from covid. In response, you can almost hear the chants of Always and everywhere, a monetary phenomenon, they're quoting Milton Friedman, who said that inflation is, quote, always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon.

[01:01:33]

In other words, the result of printing a bunch of money. It goes on, after all, the latest M2 growth rate. That's the growth rate of our money supply. When we print a lot of stuff, folks, the latest M2 growth rate for January is twenty five point eight percent. And that sounds kind of high. Roughly twice the rate at inflation's peak in the 1970s. Yes, even though velocity, the spending of money and money, monetary velocity is way down.

[01:02:00]

So think about that in the 1970s when inflation peaked at the mid sixes. Can you imagine what that would mean for you? When inflation peaked. When mortgage rates were 12, 15 and even higher, 15 percent card to buy a finance, a car cost you almost twice as much. We were printing by M2 growth rate, the growth in the money supply half as much as we do now. The simplistic way of saying it, but don't worry about it, folks.

[01:02:32]

Inflation will be fine. Cat food next on the menu. Gasoline, you'd be lucky to fill up, you'd be driving a scooter to work at this point. But nobody seems worried about it all, just keep spending away. All debts are paid, folks, don't ever forget either by the debtor or the creditor, but every single debt is paid. All right, thanks again for tuning in, I really appreciate it. Again, I have a big announcement coming in the middle of the week, another addition to our growing portfolio of parallel economy items so you can get away from the leftist tyrants and the big tech, big tech ecosystem of platforms that have you banned tomorrow.
