Democrat and Former CIA Officer Bryan Dean Wright says if Secretary of Defense Mark Esper doesn't see what's going on he should leave.
Tucker starts off the segment with a lot of passion, and teaches a bit of Civics 101, about our elected officials, like the President, who is the Commander in Chief, and who controls the military; thus, that is the way we keep Democracy in tact. Believe me, that is a very simplified version of Tucker's intro to this segment.
Then comes Bryan Dean Wright, the former CIA Officer that has some major problems with the Secretary of Defense, Mark Esper, because of what had been stated by the Secretary this last week. While watching his portion of this segment, I was wondering how this guy could be a Democrat! Unless I missed something here, and please let me know if I did, Bryan sounds like he has a firm grasp of what the Founders intended with our Constitution, and was firmly in favor of defending and protecting our Constitution, in order to keep this country together. That just doesn't sound like many Democrats that I've heard talking lately. Well, maybe we can get this Democrat to come over to our side, and walk away from the Democrats. I'm just sayin'...
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this show, I interview author Dinesh D’Souza about the growing threat of socialism in the United States. We discuss his new book “The United States of Socialism” available here.
When you stop and listen to what Dan and Dinesh are saying, you will realize that this truly is a battle of ideas between Freedom loving Americans, and those that are trying to turn this country toward Socialism. As you will learn from this interview, the type of battle that the Socialists have turned to in the 21st Century has been to engage in Cultural Warfare. During the days when Marx wrote his Communist Manifesto, the strategy was division by pitting the workers against the entrepreneurs. The poor against the rich. In this century, it is about dividing on race, gender, religion and any other type of division that they can find.
In one of the great segments in this interview, they discuss Antifa. Dinesh really nails it, and if you look very carefully, there is a lot of correlation between the riots and Antifa, who appears to have had major involvement in the coordination of the riots in many cities across the United States.
There is no doubt that you will find this interview to be very informative. And if you are paying very close attention, you should also learn the reason for not ever voting for Demonicrats. Don't be surprised by what else you may learn from this great interview.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode I address the Democrats pushing to “defund the police,” and the chaos that would result from this nonsense. I also address the epic failure of Rod Rosenstein to account for the Spygate scandal. Finally, I discuss the incredibly economic numbers which may indicate we’re moving back to prosperity.
Don't worry about a thing, folks, the Liberals in the major urban areas and Blue states, have it all under control. No, Dan didn't say that, and I'm being so sarcastic. It must be Sarcastic Saturday, right? Well, while some of those states and cities were still in lock downs, or maybe allowed to open their small businesses, while being forced to work with half, or less, of their normal pre-Wuhan revenues, so they could institute "social distancing" practices.
Meanwhile, the people in those areas were allowed to go out and protest the murder of George Floyd, and while they were at it, bad elements of society came along and caused massive amounts of property damage, looting and pillaging, and destroying the very businesses that would be hiring many people after the lockdowns were over. Geniuses. Really, I don't think those people thought it out very well. I'm speaking of the politicians. With all the people out peacefully marching, and some without wearing protective masks, will we be seeing a massive spike of new Coronavirus cases? Will we see the number of hospitalizations become overwhelming, and Coronavirus deaths spiraling out of control? Those are the questions that I've been asking since the protests became real following the public execution by the police of a Minnesota man. But, can I ask, what happens if there isn't some kind of spike from the lack of social distancing? Were we duped and had our livelihoods taken away for no reason?
Despite this episode being loaded for bear, and there is a lot that Dan will get to, probably the biggest attention grabber for me was when he discussed the Brian Fallon tweet that says, "Defund the police." In case you didn't see it, I did a retweet with comment on my timeline, where I say, "What a total moron for tweeting this. Has anyone actually thought this through? When somebody invades their homes, who are they going to call, Ghost Busters? Is Superman going to come save them? Brian Fallon's tweet is 10 times more absurd than anything I can say about it."
So, is it just me that thinks that those calling for defunding their police, or even dismantling the police force, have not thought it through very carefully? Yes, Mr. Floyd's death was terribly tragic, horrifying for everyone (except cave dwellers) that saw it in the videos and/or news channels. While the thing that happened should be treated as an anomaly, by several rogue cops, the Liberal left is telling everybody that it is systemic racism. I do not agree with that assessment.
In yesterday's post, I had written something that I want to correct. I was speaking of Demonicrat politicians, and I wrote: "Yes, there are still some very bad people out there, and SOME of them will eventually face another election." I should have added the following: "And some day they will be face to face with their Maker." Maybe too blunt, but there is a point to this. Racism really isn't wide spread, or systemic, in America.
Since my days of childhood in the 50's and 60's, vast improvements have been made. I don't see racism like I saw it 50 years ago. Not even close. I won't deny that there are still improvements to be made! Yes, that is something we can all unite on, and we can do it despite the influence of the dark forces of evil that need economically challenged people that will depend on the government, from cradle to grave. We can, and we will make those changes, and a lot of that needs to be done at the ballot box in all national, state, and local elections. Just sayin'...
Okay, as usual, I've had my rant for the day. Please keep in mind that I do hope you watch the Dan Bongino Show episodes that I have been placing in many of my posts. For me, watching them has been a very important part of my days and nights. I get to see Dan qualify my values and beliefs, and knowing that I'm not alone out here, in flyover country, "just a nobody" that believes that America is still a great country, and a miracle that really shouldn't have happened. (Yes, in this episode, Dan will explain that, too!)
No, I know I'm NOT alone, and definitely NOT a nobody! And there is this: For those of us that love America, many of us believe that President Donald Trump is making America great again, and that he will continue to do so if elected this November for another four years. Now, we do have some new challenges that need to be worked out, but with 2.5 million Americans going back to work in the latest numbers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)... And that leftist "economist" Paul Krugman denied could be true, with a tweet that apparently said that the BLS fudged the numbers, but had to walk back. Enough said about that hack.
Get the popcorn ready, and have at it! It is seriously one of Dan's best since I've been watching him. Ding, ding, ding! (You will only get that if you are watching The Dan Bongino Show.) Roll the tape!
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode, I address a deeply troubling tip I received about the Swamp and their ongoing battle against President Trump. I also address the disastrous Rod Rosenstein hearing on Capitol Hill and the total collapse of the collusion hoax. Finally, I address the new movement to kneel before others to virtue signal.
Dan begins this episode by talking about the people that were kneeling, to atone for their long history of racism, owning slaves, making people who were Black Americans sit in special sections of restaurants, or at the back of a bus. Huh? In one of the videos I saw, not one of those people could have been around before President Lincoln freed the slaves, and then fought a long, bloody civil war for, in the hopes of uniting this country once again, and making all people FREE. No, and I didn't see too many of those folks that were kneeling that were even old enough to see the days of segregation, or heard their grandparents calling Americans of African heritage "colored people." Yes, I do remember those days, and I am ashamed that those things did happen, when I was growing up.
But, like Dan says, unless you are a racist, their is no reason for personal guilt. We should not kneel before any man. Like Dan, I only kneel before the Lord, and I have plenty to be repentant for, in God's eyes. Racism isn't one of my faults, though, thank you Lord. Racism and anti-Semitism disgust me to no end. There is a little back story to that. When I was in Junior Highschool (now called Middle School), I was tormented by a bunch of bullies for being of a particular ethnic descent.
My father was of Czech heritage, a full blooded Czech! My mother wasn't, however, which made me only half-Czech, but I still had a Czech surname, of course. That name alone made me a target. Oh, it wasn't just classmates that tormented me. There was at least one teacher that called me "Little Bohemie," in front of the other students in that Industrial Arts class. I could walk down one of the hallways of that school, and dreaded every step, figuring some kid would either spit on me or slug me. Yep. It really was that bad. Just because of my heritage, and being a little size-challenged.
So, there you go, it is amazing that I had to go through that anxiety, but I did get through it. Things changed by the time I got to high school. It helped that I had grown six inches, too. (Long story that I'll tell you some other day.) By that time, America was changing for the better, too. Civil Rights, school desegregation, and all of that, were starting to happen. No, we didn't see drastic changes in America over night, either. There were still many people, on the wrong side, that fought against it as it progressed. And then, as Dan will tell you about in the first block of this episode, Liberal Demonicrats came in control of all of the biggest cities. There are a lot of people to blame for the plight of large minority populations in urban areas. And it is not for the values that Dan, or I, or President Trump hold. It was the people that developed a large amount of dependency on government, and the Demonicrats that held that carrot out in front of them, just to get votes. Believe me, Dan crushes it in that segment.
Well, my personal experiences and thoughts about what Dan talked about were needed here. But in regard to the rest of this episode, let me say it would be best for me to just let you go see it for yourself. I had to hesitate before I wrote about this episode, not sure about what I wanted to say. Obviously, it all came out in the way I wanted to tell you about my personal experience with bigotry and mistreatment, just because of my ethnic heritage! Otherwise, I would have deleted this, and started over. I can't even fathom, completely, what people of African ancestry have had to deal with. Yes, there are still some very bad people out there, and SOME of them will eventually face another election. We still have challenges facing us, obviously, but together, we can overcome them. What would really be deeply troubling, is if we didn't try. But kneeling down is not what is required. Believe me.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode, I address the exploding controversy over this action by President Trump. I discuss the new revelations in the Mike Flynn case which will rock your core. I also address my appearance on Hannity last night and I explain what happened.
On a very sincere note to begin the show, Dan gives a very heart felt mea culpa for using the Lord's name in vain when he was on the Sean Hannity Show on Tuesday (June 2, 2020). He was in total repentance, fully acknowledging his guilt, and apologizing for what he did. Umm, do you remember when former President Obama's pastor, "Reverend" Jeremiah Wright gave his mea culpa for using the Lord's name in vain? Well, I don't either! I don't think he did, unless the press never reported that.
It was great to see Dan getting back to the Gen. Mike Flynn saga in the show. I thought it was a highlight moment of the ages when Dan briefed us on the Noel Francisco Brief in regard to Michael Flynn's Petition for Writ of Mandamus to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. So, the Solicitor General of the United States would just make it all up? Just alluding to what Liberals will probably tell you. You better try real hard, Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff or CNN and PMSNBC dimwits, because it's going to be pretty difficult to discredit the people that signed that little note to an Appeals Court. Good luck with that. They'd have to be morons to attempt that sabotage. Oh, wait...
Okay, I'm on a roll here, but there is SO much to this show for you to see and hear for yourself. Only if you are trying to write a blog about it do you have to keep going back to his Show for information, because otherwise, this one will tell you right up front that this is about a true battle between good and evil. And you know? I think the police are the good guys! And they will try to keep protestors and the public safe to the best of their abilities, and sometimes at a very high cost. I hope and pray that the protestors get very smart, which they truly are, and start turning in the REAL bad guys that have been hijacking a legitimate cause, for very evil purposes. I'll let Dan explain.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode, I address the organized ANTIFA insurrection against the United States. I also address the latest attempt by the tech tyrants to destroy conservatives and the President.
I am really happy to report that Dan was totally on his A-Game in this episode. What a great hour or two I spent watching this episode. If you haven't seen it yet, you really should!
Dan's normal exuberance was back, I tell ya! I could really see his excitement level lifting off the charts when he started talking about what President Trump did on Monday, when he got done with the press statement, and then headed over to St. John's. Yes, Dan was a Secret Service agent, assigned to the Presidential detail, and knew exactly what the thoughts were of the agents when President Trump headed over to the church. That was kind of cool to see how Dan explained it, and tore the media up for their trash-talking about the incident. You can see that in Dan's first block of this episode.
There happened to be a very interesting tweet that I saw today, before writing this. The first part of the tweet asks, "If VERITAS can infiltrate Antifa, what do you think the DOJ has been doing?" Well, if you haven't heard about Antifa being designated as a terrorist organization, then you've probably been watching too much mainstream news. In fact, the MSM totally ignores the fact that Antifa is responsible for a lot of the rioting in the big cities. They actually had all the supplies needed, staged around the cities, such as gasoline, bricks, and various objects that could do a lot of harm to people and property. I guess if the liberal media doesn't pick up on this story, they're going to look awfully stupid. When the DOJ/FBI starts rounding up those critters, what is the MSM going to say then? And, by the way, Dan has a few things to say about members of Antifa that will delight you. Those Antifa members? Total wimps... chumps... and he had other things that he couldn't say because of keeping the show family friendly, but he really wanted to.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode, I address the protests which have been hijacked and have now evolved into an insurrection.
I'm pretty sure that I must be on the same wavelength that Dan Bongino is on. I was definitely not surprised about how he put the show together on Monday. After this last weekend? I was glued to the TV and other venues to see what was going on. I was very disturbed. And obviously, Dan was just as torn up inside, and probably much more, being where he has worked in his past.
About everything that I had been thinking, Dan verified in this episode. Starting with him identifying the three groups, Dan had me right there. The actual protestors, taking advantage of their Constitutional Rights to address the government with their grievances. If I was a lot healthier, I'd be joining with them! Then, there was the criminal element, that looted and destroyed property. They were the perfect patsies for the 3rd group, the radical left instigators of the violence.
Because of the enormous amount of violence in the form of rioting, looting, and property damage, they 3rd group, the radicals, of hijacked the message of the protestors. They even hijacked the Rights of the protesters in the First Amendment in the Constitution. And now, the rioters are the news, rather than those that want to peacefully express their belief - whether you agree with them or not - that there is excessive use of force by the police against the minorities in America.
So, here is Dan in yesterday's episode. I think you can understand his very somber attitude, and will be aware of that from the very beginning of the show.
Dr. Alveda King joins Jedediah Bila on 'Fox & Friends.'
Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, a Democrat, says it like it is. She says, "We are better than this as a country." Right on, Sister!
And then, bring on Dr. Alveda King, niece of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Listen to what she says. Violence isn't the way to be heard. It doesn't bring us together. Come together, in faith, unity and love. And then communicate. And there is no need to scream at each other. That solves nothing.
I am hoping that this post gets around. It might, but it will depend on you. I'm not looking for any glory, other than from the Lord. Rather than destroying and stealing property, let's just calmly discuss what can be done to solve the problems of social injustice. I'm with you on that, but would much rather solve those problems peacefully. You are being heard. Now, stop the violence.
Former Minneapolis officer charged with murder, manslaughter in George Floyd's death, Lawrence Jones weighs in.
Lawrence Jones tells Dana Perino that the community leaders can tell the police who the outsiders are. That is why a relationship between the police departments and the community leaders needs to be built. The community leaders don't want the outside agitators coming in and destroying all that they have been working on.
With all we've been going through in the last few months, I wanted to post at least one very positive story before the end of May 2020. I happened to see this speech given by President Donald Trump today, following the successful launch of the Spacex rocket, sending Americans into space, from the great Kennedy Space Center, for the first time in a decade.
There were a few things that the President mentioned in his "remarks," which in all reality, was one of his greatest speeches, that caught my attention. One of those topics was in regard to the new Space Force, the 6th branch of our U.S. armed forces. I will wonder what it is that he now knows about, that we won't know about for decades. Yes, some fun stuff to think about. You just need a spare half hour to see this. It is worth it, especially if you need something positive to think about!
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode, I address the exploding war between President Trump and the Twitter tech tyrants. I also address the riots in Minneapolis, and the only way to stop them.
As Dan Bongino exposes what the Deep State did to General Michael Flynn, he is also exposing all of the other things that they - the leftwing media and the Demonicrats - are capable of. This isn't conspiracy theory stuff, either. It's just something I've been pondering on since I watched this episode last night, and again today.
I couldn't even express myself in a way to tell you how I'm feeling about all that is going on. Hey, this is way deeper than I was expecting. What on earth? While good things started happening in the Gen. Mike Flynn case, and thanks to former Acting DNI Rick Grenell, a lot of truth is coming out. Dan covers that very well in this episode.
Now, though, it seems a little like somebody wants to make the President look bad, again. But in truth, the riots only point to the left, sending in agitators to stir up the violence; property destruction and theft, via the racism excuse. It does feel like a George Soros scheme. Just sayin'...
Surely, I'm all wrong. No? I know that we were just getting ready to break out of the economic lockdown and overcome the Coronavirus Pandemic and shutdown of what was a fantastic economy. Lo and behold, along comes another crisis! I'm tellin' ya, it's getting pretty predictable from the left. Thanks, Rahm Emanuel: "Never let a crisis go to waste." That's right on page one of the Marxist playbook! Or, Saul Alinsky's playbook, "Rules For Radicals."
I know, I didn't write a lot about this episode. Really, just watch it, you'll get it. There would be nothing that I could write that would add to it. Only what I wrote above. And just know it: This is another attack on our freedom. It's bad enough that the tech tyrants can't leave us freedom-loving Americans alone.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode, I address the explosive Obama Executive Order which has escaped media scrutiny in the unmasking scandal. I also address the death of George Floyd and the rioting in Minneapolis. Finally, I discuss the media’s desperation to spin the Coronavirus tragedy in blue states.
Normally, this post would have been done just after seeing this episode. It didn't happen, though, this time. No, I didn't go out and do a fire pit, which would be one of my excellent excuses, which I'll be utilizing on a regular basis as Summer goes on. Unfortunately, though, I have health issues that are affected by the weather, especially when a low pressure system is going over. I know I'm not alone in that happening to many Seniors. Well, anyway, my focus was way off last night when it came to writing. After seeing this episode, and seeing the things on the news about the riots in my neighbor State of Minnesota, and having been to Minneapolis a few times, I shared in everyone's grief about what was happening there.
Like Dan, I was disgusted by what the police officers did in this situation. "The fight was over," as Dan explained in his first segment about the very horrifying incident where a person was tragically killed by a law enforcement officer, while the other three officers said nothing like, "Okay, sit him up, now, it's over!" So disgusting. But, as I was watching news last night, I was agreeing completely with Dan in regard to the rioting. What good could come out of doing the things they did? Burning things and looting won't bring back George Floyd. It won't change bad cops into good ones. It won't make Floyd's family happy, but in fact, intensify their sorrow and anguish. Okay, if you want to protest, you have the right and the freedom to do that. But protesting doesn't include the outright lawlessness. If you want to burn something, go make an effigy of a rogue cop. Burn that. Be my guest. But destruction of property and theft is the wrong way to get the point across. Many churches or places of worship will soon be open. Go pray for the man's family, and for all the law enforcement officers that will now have a more difficult job.
Being that the incidents in Minneapolis have been the primary story in this news cycle, I'll just close this post right here. I definitely want you to see this whole episode, and soak in what Dan tells you about Obama's Executive Order 12333. It's extremely important to have that information, especially when you start hearing about AG Barr assigning a U.S. Attorney for the DOJ to look into the "unmasking" and spying on Gen. Mike Flynn. Oh, yeah, somebody's bagels are going to be burning up. For sure. Just don't miss seeing the rest of this episode for some more brilliant analysis and commentary.
Michael Pastelak a veteran of the United States Army who served in Afghanistan is challenging the North Carolina governor over lockdown policies.
Axe throwing! Who knew! Well, I didn't, anyway. But what I do know is that the lockdown is hurting people in very big ways. Watch this segment from Tucker Carlson Tonight to see what Michael Pastelak and his attorney are doing about what seems to be very unconstitutional by the North Carolina governor.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode, I address the troubling new developments in the tech tyrant’s war on conservatives and Donald Trump. I also address the infamous Russia “hack” of the DNC - did it really happen. Finally, I address Americans fighting back against the outrageous lockdowns.
As Dan always says, it was a totally loaded show today. Packed! Where do I even start? How about with the tech tyrant, Jack Dorsey and his accountability as Twitter CEO. He wrote in a tweet earlier today, and I did only partially quote his tweet, but will provide the link here, "Fact check: there is someone ultimately accountable for our actions as a company, and that’s me..." I will go no further in my comments here, other than to tell you, Jack, Dan says you have big problems now, daddio. Jack just opened up a Pandora's box doing what he did to "fact check" a tweet by @realDonaldTrump, our President. No, he didn't! Oh, yes, he DID!
Keeping in mind that the fact check on the President is not a freedom of speech issue, as Dan goes on to explain, but it is a free market issue. More than that, Twitter can no longer be labeled as a "social media platform," with the insertion of editing. They would now be a "publisher," meaning that they can be sued for defamation or libel. By editing anyone, they are showing editorial review. Yes, that kind of opens up that Pandora's box a bit, but not as much as the other thing. The FEC (Federal Election Commission) regarding "in kind political donations." See, just a little problem there for Twitter. They only fact checked the President, who is also a candidate for President on the GOP ticket in 2020. If they aren't doing that to anyone else, then it would benefit who ever the Demonicrat candidate ends up being, if the trend continues.
Dan threw in some good humor in this episode, and you will get some good laughs. However, on a real serious side, Dan really got me on the Governor Cuomo (D-NY) order to put Covid-19 patients into nursing homes. Yeah, just ask Janice Dean of Fox News about how that worked out. It didn't end wellat all! But on the other hand, I have something to be very grateful of, here in Iowa. I haven't been able to go see my dad, who is over 100 years old. He is in a nursing home. They are locked down, with stringent protocols for the employees there, and the residents. He is safe for now, and I pray that when this is all over I can see him again!
That being said. enjoy the show, especially the MSNBC faceplant in a report from Wisconsin. Hilarious!
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode I address the economic development that has the Democrats terrified about the 2020 election. I also address that infamous Russia “hack.” Did it really happen? I discuss the tech tyrants' new moves to silence us. Finally, I address more explosive evidence indicating Obama knew about the Spygate scandal.
As Dan points out early in the show, there are many people here in America that are in grave financial situations now, with the Coronavirus lockdown of our economy. We've seen and heard the stories from around the country about the suffering with "non-essential" businesses being closed down to protect the public from the nasty virus. Even with many states now allowing businesses to open back up, there will still be a lot restrictions, such as limited capacity so as to allow for safe "social distancing" guidelines. It is very, very scary for so many people. The economic picture certainly looks bleak at the moment.
Yes, but like after the storm, there is a rainbow, sometimes. Heaven forbid, the biggest reminder that things could get drastically better, in a short amount of time, came from Jason Furman, a top economist in the Obama administration, and a Harvard professor of all things, shocked some people when he said there could be an economic rebound the likes of never before seen, later this year. I totally get what he's saying, and believe he is right. The article about his statements was in Politico, of all places. I have that story linked for you (below the video). You'll want to read it.
And why is that story freaking out the Demonicrats, and the Biden campaign? If it all works out as Furman is suggesting, guess what? Would the Demonicrats, and Biden, even have one thing to run on? As you guessed it, as Dan was discussing this, I had to laugh when he did a little parody of what the new slogan for the Biden 2020 campaign would be. And I'm not giving that away. You'll have to see it for yourself!
Because of the amount of detail involved, I will leave you to go see how the story continues to unravel in the Spygate/ObamaGate scandal. As always, Dan has the information for you, and continues to present the case that shows the the extent of the corruption by the Obama administration, that weaponized the FBI and intelligence communities to take down not just Gen. Mike Flynn, but also the duly elected President Trump. And I promise that one of these days, we'll be able to explain why the Demonicrats really needed President Trump out of their way, and how the Deep State is completely involved.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode I address the increasingly bizarre case against General Mike Flynn as the judge in the case lawyers up! I also cover the explosive growth of podcasts as evidenced by the latest Joe Rogan deal. Finally, I address the Biden team meltdown over this video.
I'll get right to the punchline. At the end of the show, Dan asks us to help determine what Joe Biden really said. Was it, "I'll beat Joe Biden," or was it "I'll be Joe Biden"??? First of all, you'd have to know if he was inebriated or intoxicated. Words can be so easily slurred in certain conditions. You can listen, and make your own decision.
But, it was a head fake, just so you know. A head fake by our side, courtesy of Dan Bongino, and will keep the weak minded trolls in social media busy for weeks making their brilliant, scientific, complete forensic studies of that clip. That will keep them busy! Meanwhile, the adults in the room can discuss the serious issues. Things like what Dan says about the media.
Now, think about it. Shouldn't the people doing journalism be the ones that give us real news, and not fake news? The reporter just has one job, and that is to report the facts. No bias is required. Just the facts, ma'am. But as it turns out, editors decide HOW the story is presented, with their editorial bias injected. Or, the editors can also edit by omission, which can unfortunately lead to the media telling "a story," rather than "the story," as Dan expresses it.
This episode gave me a whole bunch of things to think about. Yep, hearing about Judge Emmet Sullivan "lawyering up" with Beth Wilkinson, a comrade of Kathryn Ruemmler, should make you wonder what is going on.
An interesting diversion from the political things: Dan talks about the New York Times article about Joe Rogan's success. Okay, I'm not going to try to tell the younger crowd of the readers here what or how to think, but pay attention to what has prompted this story to get out there, and a mention here. From an old guy like me to the young people out there, always pay attention to the TRENDS. And getting the information, actual facts, will matter more and more in the future.
If that wasn't the perfect segue into these last words before you start watching this great Memorial Day episode... I know. Really, many of us know. If you are even checking out a fraction of my posts here on Blogging in Our Time 2 Escape, YOU know what they are hiding.
New York Post columnist David Marcus called out the risks of keeping New York City locked-down.
Before I tell you more about the Tucker Carlson clip with David Marcus and his commentary in the New York Post, I want to show you what Dan Bongino had to say about the story:
Yes, I snuck in that clip from Dan Bongino Show Clips. (It's a nice little tool for bloggers like me!) The above show clip came from Episode 1255 of the Dan Bongino Show, which I of course posted a blog about a couple days ago.
Well, I think you will have no confusion about where I stand on this issue. I think most of us figured that to keep us safe, we'd just have to lockdown, shelter-in-place, for maybe a month to 6 weeks. I don't think anyone of us really thought that the lockdown would be, "The New Normal" (a term I absolutely despise!!) I am so glad that David Marcus got his commentary on the front page of the New York Post. I am glad that Tucker Carlson is talking about it. I am glad that I saw the fantastic commentary on the Dan Bongino Show a few days ago (see above).
Yes, there are acceptable practices right now to keep people safe: Those most vulnerable, especially those in nursing homes. Of course, Governor Andrew Cuomo completely screwed that up in his state of New York. Meanwhile, I am prevented from going to the nursing home to give my 100 year old dad a hug he needs and deserves. Well, I live in Iowa, and Gov. Kim Reynolds is obviously doing things much better that Gov. Cuomo. That I can tell you from my first hand experience. My dad is still alive!
Now, back to Tucker's segment with David Marcus. It just adds the fuel to the fire, that people really want these lockdowns ended, before cities like New York go down the tube. And before a great country like the United States ends up in the dustbins of history.
I know that most of us believe that President Donald Trump will lead America back to greatness. But every day that is delayed just adds more layers of disaster, and eats away at that crust over the volcano.
Former Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker joins ‘Sunday Morning Futures.’
On Sunday Morning Futures (May 24, 2020), Sandra Smith, the host filling in for Marie Bartelomo. asked former Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker to comment on the weird actions by Judge Emmet Sullivan to not dismiss the case against Gen. Mike Flynn, and the action by the D.C Circuit Court of Appeals to reply by June 1, 2020. It appears that Judge Sullivan was trying to delay the dismissal of the case, so Flynn's new attorney, Sidney Powell, had to file a Writ of Mandamus with the Court of Appeals, and the Appeals Court went along with her, and made the reply date as soon as they could, by June 1, so this case wouldn't keep on going, as Judge Sullivan desired for whatever nefarious reason.
The host also asked Matt Whitaker about what he thought about Susan Rice's email to herself, about the meeting in the Oval Office with the President and other officials on January 5, 2017. That email was fully declassified last week by acting DNI Rick Grenell, and reveals things that Rice has lied about.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode I address the explosive Joe Biden tapes, which the media is ignoring. I also address the disturbing reason Barack Obama targeting General Flynn for destruction.
Well, the mainstream media FAKE NEWS guys can ignore the Joe Biden tapes all they want, but we're not going to, are we?! That was not a question. It was a conviction of the desire to do all we can to make sure people know about the real Quid Pro Quo Joe Biden before November 2020. As Dan expresses so eloquently, how can there be a hoax impeachment for President Trump, but somebody that would become President, if elected, was seriously involved in quid pro quo in order to get an investigation of Burisma stopped, where Biden's son apparently had a position on the board and got paid with no clue about the energy industry. As always, Dan smashed through the lamestream media and Demonicrat spin of what Joe Biden did.
Now, the other segment that I want to discuss the most, starts at 25:28. I have been very fortunate, I've stayed locked down for the most part, have had no financial issues because I'm retired and live comfortably on my income (actually came out ahead when they sent me that $1,200 check), and I've stayed healthy. But, this is the segment that made me sure that I wanted to discuss, because some people haven't been so lucky.
There has been a toll on my life, as my 100 year old father is locked down in the nursing home. He has Alzheimer's, but before all of this started, my two siblings and I were visiting him regularly. We played a game called "Rummikub" with him, which really kept him pretty sharp. Now, it has been almost 3 months since we've been able to be with him. Unlike New York, our Governor Reynolds here in Iowa, has done an awesome job to keep the people in nursing homes very safe. It's just that... Well, you know, we're praying that he will be able to recognize us, and that he is still alive.
But, see, there are a lot of things that this virus has been doing to our lives, and just about all of us have been affected in one or another! I am so very glad that Dan talks about this from time to time, and I thought today's segment on it is very important to see. So many people going through financial ruin, not able to get back to work, or run their businesses, where states have not allowed it. And as Dan has been saying, as I have been writing, many of the states that are suffering the most are - ready for this? - controlled by the Demonicrat party. And like Dan says, a lot of this is just because the President's opponents, the Demonicrats, want to hurt President Trump. That is the saddest point of this all.
And you know what? I stand with Dan on this issue. I'm not going to give the government my consent to destroy so many lives just so they can regain power. Really, God forbid that ever happens again. I think that Dan Bongino gives us the knowledge to know the kind of things that the Demonicrats are capable of doing, and not just their lust for power, but also to preserve Obama's legacy. That's damn scary.
Just a footnote here, but it is important. And makes me very, very happy! Hallelujah! I think President Donald Trump did something extremely important today, probably came out after Dan did this episode. He expressed today that houses of worship ARE essential, and should open, and that if any governor doesn't allow it, he will override their decisions.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode I interview General Mike Flynn’s attorney, Sidney Powell about the framing of her client. Sidney is the author of “Conviction Machine” available here.
The attorney for Gen. Mike Flynn, Sidney Powell, came on a special interview episode of The Dan Bongino Show, and it is seriously good!
After seriously being snookered by his original defense team, when the government came along and framed Gen. Flynn, and forced him into a guilty plea by threatening to indict his son, the former defense team practically lead the charge in getting Flynn to plead guilty. I am thanking God that Gen. Mike Flynn hired Sidney Powell, who is turning things around for the General. That was a very good choice.
Now, the only thing standing in the way of Gen. Flynn having total freedom, and having the charges dismissed as the Justice Department has already requested, is Judge Emmet Sullivan. Here is quote from an article that will help you understand why there is a light at the end of a long tunnel for Gen. Mike Flynn:
Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn and his legal team, led by attorney Sidney Powell, received promising news Thursday from the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. In a rare move, a three-judge panel ordered Judge Emmet Sullivan, the presiding judge in the long-running criminal case against Flynn, to respond to Powell’s petition for a writ of mandamus.
For everybody that has been a supporter of Gen. Flynn, and love the fact that he now has highly competent legal representation from Attorney Sidney Powell, This video is for you!
