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

All right, folks, I was given a tip, a very disturbing tip about some name you've probably heard before, Hunter Biden. I'm just throwing it right out there. There's no need to overly tease this thing. I'm going to get to it right at the beginning of the show today. And the tip is troubling in light of what I heard last night on the Tucker Carlson show and a report I saw this morning from Axios about a Chinese government influence operation in the United States, you can probably put two and two together.

Hunter Biden influence operation Hunter. Biden has been involved with China. We know about the big guy, business opportunities, hunter taking money from China, kicking it up to Joe Biden, his dad, the big guy. Now, the tip is pretty predictable. I'm going to get to that. I've also got an update on what happened in Georgia, an update on a major lawsuit that could go to the Supreme Court that could be damaging. I've got that.

They were like, bring in the right guy for the Bell Joes in the bullpen. He's chewing on his tobacco. He's sitting there saying that Brigada a variety. What do you mean you got to hit the ball quicker? So incredible to the rest here. I'm just kidding. I love Joe. He's always all right. So let me get right to the story I was debating of why I was debating the order of the stories today, because we have this election stuff and all this malfeasance or misfeasance in Georgia.

But this story is critically important. So let me lay this out. Tucker Carlson had a damning segment on his show last night on Fox News about the Chinese Communist Party. And unsurprisingly, an influence operation in the United States. A very disturbing influence operation and influence operation, I wanted to take notes, so I got this all out there because I've been we were going to do this story last week, right, Paula? And we got overwhelmed by election stuff.

And I'm regretting not doing it because Tucker beat us to the punch last night on it.

We were given some information a while ago, not the stuff on it, but this other stuff, but this this is critical. They're looking to influence business leaders, academics, entertainers, athletes, media people, local and elected politicians at the national level. Bureaucrats, unions, interest groups to get legislation passed and to get information on the United States that benefits China and does not benefit you, surprising to no one here it is laid out. This was an appearance by our director of national intelligence.

There is literally no one in the country but more intelligence on this matter other than Donald Trump. Then this man, John Radcliffe, who is our current director of National Intelligence DNI. He was on Fox News talking about what the Chinese are doing to work our system here. Screw you over, benefit the Chinese and cause internal strife within the United States. This is one of the most disturbing pieces of video you've seen while listening to Radcliffe. Lay it out.

Check this out. You wrote a piece for The Wall Street Journal and you say China is targeting members of Congress with six times the frequency of Russia and 12 times the frequency of Iran. What is behind Beijing's aggressive approach? So they want laws and policies out of the United States that are favorable to China. And what they're really trying to do is through blackmail, through bribery, through overt and covert influence, trying to make sure that only laws that are favorable to China are passed.

Have you been to Capitol Hill and have you briefed us threat information to lawmakers?

I was so troubled by what I saw from the position as the director of National Intelligence that I went and briefed both the House and Senate Intelligence Committees on this information, which they found surprising and troubling.

I'm very sorry. I saw Katherine Harris. I was seeing Fox. That is CBS. That is CBS News. Full credit. Obviously, if you're listening on audio and you're not seeing the video, there is a CBS icon. If you saw the video, that is CBS News Katherine Harris, who does excellent work both at Fox and at CBS now. Did you hear that? You know, I know John Ratcliffe is a relatively understated guy, so he's not as animated as I can be.

So sometimes if the emotion is involved, you can miss what he just said. That the Chinese government is using bribery, bribery, covert tactics to get laws passed, US laws in the United States that don't benefit you in a constitutional republic that benefit China. And that lawmakers up on Capitol Hill know about it, how do we know that, Joe? Because Ratcliffe says he briefed them. Why haven't you heard about this? Why is Radclyffe and now, Tucker, last night on Fox the only one sounding the alarm about this?

Well, John Ratcliffe wrote a widely disseminated viral op ed in the Washington excuse me in The Wall Street Journal last week about this problem, laying out top to bottom what China's doing to screw you over and get laws passed that hurt you and help China in our country right here, right now. He lays out in this op ed last week, which, again, I'm sorry for not covered last week, there's just so much going on. It's like drinking from a firehose.

He lays out all of the things they're doing. One of them, one of the things they're doing really put the op ed piece up, if you don't mind, Paul, what are these things really jumped out at me. So I took a screen cap. There's a whole bunch of stuff going to get you here, make it to the Biden thing in a minute. Two. So don't go anywhere. The op ed is called China is a National Security Threat, no one resisting Beijing's attempt to reshape and dominate the world is the challenge of our generation.

John Ratcliffe, Wall Street Journal. Here's one of the things that jumped out at me that should really disturb you, I'll bet you never thought of this one, folks, he says, and I quote, Consider this scenario a Chinese owned manufacturing facility in the United States employs several thousand Americans. All right.

One day, the plant's union leader is approached by a representative of the Chinese firm. The businessman explains that the local congresswoman is taking a hard line position on legislation that runs counter to Beijing's interests, even though it has nothing to do with the industry. The companies involved in and says the union leader must then urge her to must then urge the congresswoman to shift positions or the plant, and all its jobs will soon be gone. The union leader then contacts the congresswoman and indicates that his members won't support a re-election without a change in position.

He tells himself he's protecting his members. But in that moment, he's really doing China's bidding. And the congresswoman is being influenced by China, whether she realizes it or not, folks. Do you think the director of national intelligence is using this specific example because he just made it up? You think that's what he's doing? No, no, no, no, no, that example's probably in that piece just throwing it out there, folks. Just throwing it out there.

Because that's probably a scenario that's happening across the United States right now. Ladies and gentlemen, we have the world's foremost rival to the United States. A nuclear powered country engaged in a massive intelligence operation to steal our intelligence. To destroy us from the inside that is engaged in sophisticated internal influence operations to influence people you may be working with in the United States. Folks, Tucker covered this last night in a stunning eight minute monologue and opening his show, I'm going to play two pieces of video from it.

In this first piece of video, he describes this influence operation and this is going to open up just so I cover this accurately, this piece of audio video with a video of a man in China talking in this clip before it's been taken down. He's talking. He's speaking out, not in English. Obviously, he's speaking. And you'll hear it. And then you'll hear Tucker describe what he's saying. This is really, really disturbing stuff. Check this out.

And we are told they got him something. I'm sorry. What possibly you got kind of you are so bold in choosing me some someday beholden to a woman's.

I make what a chance for a woman.

You're a woman. There's a lot of garbage floating around the Internet right now, a lot of fake things, that video is real and those subtitles are accurate. We checked today with two different Chinese speakers and confirmed that what he just said, what you just read on the screen, tells the story. This is as close to a smoking gun as we have ever seen. Quote, We have people at the top of America's core inner circle of power and influence.

According to the man you just saw, that has been true for decades. So who are these people and how many of them work in our media and in our government? Well, he didn't say precisely. At one point in the video, he described a Chinese agent working as a vice president and, quote, a top Wall Street financial institution. I can't say more, he explained, without making political trouble. Sheng did tell his audience that one agent in particular was especially useful and he goes on at some length about her.

He describes her as an American who has lived abroad for many years, who is now a Chinese citizen.

Who's that agent? Who's that agent, who's that Chinese agent that this Chinese official in this damning video talking about? There are subtitles if you want to watch it, Rumbold Bongino, there are subtitles on it. This Chinese official clearly says we have people at the top. We have people at the top and then mentions a specific Chinese agent who is why do you think Tucker aired this segment last night, folks? He was mystery, I think it was a mistake, you think, Tucker, in the midst of this election, just very let's just randomly do a segment on the Chinese come from Chinese communist influence operationalizes?

I don't think so. Who is this agent? This Chinese agent working. His or her, her way up the top? Well, why conveniently drop this morning in a moment of stunning journalism over an axios? This is good work. A reporter over at Axios dropped this bombshell of a story about an agent in the United States working with China to influence political leaders and others. Axios exclusive. Suspected Chinese spy targeted California politicians. Oh, wait, do you see who one of these politicians was?

So before we get to specific screen caps from this piece, actually is again a stunningly good piece of journalism, I say that because journalism is seemingly died and one of the politicians in question is a Democrat. And, you know, they're a protected class job. There's no allowable journalism on Democrats. Stunning. I mean, we we we saw no journalism about the Hunter Biden story at all. Matter of fact, there was counter anti journalism where it was suppressed.

So just to get through this, Radclyffe opens up talking to Katherine Harris. China's working the system trying to bribe and influence government leaders to influence policies in their favor. They're also working business leaders, academics, entertainers, anyone they can get their mitts on, union leaders and everyone else to try and get policies passed that influence China and screw you over. That sounds kind of bad. Tucker goes on last night and says, hey, listen, we've got video of this Chinese official talking about this.

We have people at the top influence operations implying they bought off people in our own government. And then Tucker says, hey, this guy also mentions this Chinese agent who's done some spectacular work and really getting inside our political infrastructure to screw someone over. And conveniently this morning, Axios drops this bomb. Let's go to screenshot number one from the Axios piece where you're going to be like, hey, why convenient timing for this?

Now, the woman at the center of this alleged spy operation is a Chinese national named Fang Fang, or Christine Fang, who targeted up and coming local politicians in the Bay Area, conveniently a source of a lot of our trade secrets when it comes to technology folks and across the country who had the potential to make it big on the national stage. So where that's where she's in the Bay Area where tech sector is. And she targeted up and coming politicians.

It goes on. This woman, Christine Fang, through campaign fundraising, extensive networking, personal charisma and romantic or sexual relationships, boy, with at least two Midwestern mayors, she was able to gain proximity to political power, according to current and former US intel officials and one former elected official out. That one's going to sting. Democrats are always guilty, of course, of what they accuse you of. Now, let me be crystal clear. I'm not suggesting there may not be Republicans involved in this, too.

I'm not suggesting that at all. I'm simply saying that one of the people involved in this with this woman, who is the alleged spy in this piece or working with the Chinese government, one of the guys involved in this was one of the biggest verbal diarrhea guys around when it came to the Trump colluded with the Russians. Remember Eric Swalwell, a clown, crusty, crusty, the clown Swalwell. I mean, this guy is the biggest clown in Congress after Adam Schiff.

He's the silver medal in the stupid Olympics and the a complete waste of this total oxygen thief. Eric Swalwell was the biggest mouth on television. This congressman out of California hammering on about collusion with foreign governments. Well, wouldn't it be super weird if this alleged spy, Christine Fang, who's disappeared, she's not in the United States, folks, where she's like the and Stimpy land of the left side, where they go, nobody knows. We've used a nobody knows where she is.

Strange. She won't answer anybody's emails. Wouldn't it be really weird if Swalwell Pete Hoekstra shouldn't collude with foreign officials like Trump did? That's really bad. That guy was involved in this story. Surely that didn't happen. Let's go to a picture from the Axios piece that would never that can't possibly be true.

Here's from. Oh, my gosh. Look, crazy time, Joe. Crazy pills everywhere. There's Christine Fang, alleged spy with Eric Swalwell. And a couple of other officials as well. Apparently, there's quite a few photos with Swalwell. Swalwell, you got to folks, please watch the video for this show today, you don't know what you're missing. Rumble, dot com slash. The Axios piece, by the way, will also be in the show notes for those of you audio only Bunshiro, that newsletter, that's our newsletter, that is the show notes.

You can read the article. I listen. Axios did a good job here. And if Republicans are involved in this, let's hear about that, too, unlike. Air quotes journalists, we do actual investigative reporting here. So we're interested if someone was compromised, regardless of your political affiliation. I'm stunned that CEOs did this knowing Swalwell was involved in this. You like this story, can't possibly get worse. No, no, it does. Let's go to screenshot number three is for screenshots from this piece.

That's how you know it's good from the Axios piece. Among the most significant targets of Fang's efforts was Congressman Eric Swalwell from California. Fang took part in fundraising activity for Swallow's re-election campaign, according to a Bay Area political operative and a current US intelligence official, Swalwell office was directly aware of these activities on its behalf. The political operatives said the same operative, a witness fang fundraising on Swalwell behalf, found no evidence of illegal contributions. FEC records don't indicate Fang herself made donations which are prohibited from foreign officials.

Foreign nationals. Fang helped place at least one intern. Wow, it's so obvious. Isn't that weird, according to those same two people, and interacted with Swalwell at multiple events over the course of several years.

What exactly were those interactions with Swalwell? She was responsible for placing an intern and two in Swalwell of it an intern. So just to be clear, these are allegations again, the woman was in the United States and the United States. You're entitled to the presumption of innocence. I actually believe in the Constitution, unlike some in the media and elsewhere. But these are very serious allegations that this woman, Christine Fang, was working with the Chinese government in an influence operation and was doing fundraising on behalf of a US Congressman Swalwell, who sits on the Intelligence Committee.

Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow. I was watching Crede two last night, and there's that scene with Drago's kid, the body shop. Oh, the liver shots and the kidney shots. No bueno, Noga. Drop them elbows, keep them hands up, drop the dip into it. And also had many interactions with Slow Lwow. WERD. Get a little goosebumps as I prep you for what's coming next year.

No, I'm not even kidding. Look at that hair standing up. It's amazing. I still have my hair is like your hair is never going to fall. It's the craziest thing ever. I got the most resistant hair in human history. Are you going to think I'm, like, faking this thing? Right. It's hanging on for dear life. It ain't going anywhere.

Oh, Swalwell. Yeah. PPY Hoaxer. Hoaxer has had interactions with an alleged Chinese influence operation person running at the United States and weapon to fundraise for him and placed an intern in his office. Maybe Swalwell should step aside for a little while till we get to the bottom of this. I know the segment I'm going to write one last piece from axios, one last screen chef Maximon. Yeah, yeah, because I got it. This is just part I don't know.

I know this is great. This is part one from the Axios will wrap this up, read this piece in access because the next part will make total sense. So Christopher, our failed FBI director, said that Beijing is engaged in a highly sophisticated, malign foreign influence operation, a campaign which he said in a July 20 speech. They involved subversive, subversive, undeclared, criminal or coercive attempts to sway our government policies, distort our country's public discourse and undermine confidence in our democratic process and values, he said.

I want you to pay particular attention to the part where he says they're involved in coercive attempts. Now, there are a lot of liberals listening, so they don't have access to a dictionary, thesaurus or anything else coercive, meaning they were using coercion, China to get people to do things for their interests and against yours in the United States. How would you do that? If I was looking to coerce someone and I was the Chinese government, someone in power who could hurt me by voting on some policy that would hurt China, how would you coerce them?

Would you use physical violence, will probably in China, you would, but likely not over here in the United States, not going to do you much good. You know, I'm going to beat you up, otherwise they would just call, you'd be arrested. This is a, you know, a third world country or China where they put people in the gulags here. They tried that with Mike Flynn. So how would you coerce someone to do something on China's behalf if you were engaged in an influence operation?

I got a crazy idea. Maybe you would gather a file on them, Eric dreaded air quotes again, you know, with them doing bad stuff and say, hey, you may want to take this position on that vote. You may be a real shame if your place burned the weekend and you may want to take this vote yes or no, like we say, because it'd be a real shame if this information we got in this file. I'm looking for I got so much stuff that they have this information to file.

You know, if that got out there, it could be really bad. Yeah. Kind of like to be terrible off. We would be the worst thing ever. We would I mean, we'd have to hug it out. It'd be really bad. So in order to get that coercive file, to use coercion. You'd probably need. To get people on video and audio doing things that would be embarrassing, oh oh oh oh stato. I'm going to leave that one right there for a second.

All right, folks, let me get to my second sponsor of today's show brought to you by our friends, Agenus, a longtime sponsor of the show. You know, this is a big hit my house. That's why the lovely Paula always looks so lovely, because her and her mom love Jenny. So she always gives me that she Vogues a little bit for me when I do that. And I still love it.

So without further ado, I want to get through this segment because I was given a tip and I mean like a tip at a restaurant. I mean I have pretty good sources on stuff and someone threw me something that really blew my mind because it's very specific. A rough time period and a location about the infamous Hunter Biden and it. Sergei's tragically and I mean that because it's just all the stuff is disgusting from my coersion angle here. So the Chinese are using coercion to influence policy in the United States.

You can only use coercion if you have something to coerce someone with that, something to coerce someone with is usually a blackmail file of stuff you did. That's really not cool. So, Tucker, last night going back to it. Because I don't think Tucker's segment last night was an accident, somebody probably scooped him that, hey, this Axios bombshell is going to drop today about Swalwell and others, Tucker hints. Joetta, there's this agent they're all talking about.

Next thing you know, next day a story drops about a Chinese agent, the United States and Swalwell. Wow. What what are the odds? But Tucker said something else last night in the segment. He ends up this portion of his. You can watch the whole eight minute monologue if you'd like, but I cut the portions relevant to today's show. He ends up this portion of his monologue talking again about Hunter Biden and Bob Wolinsky in the same segment about a Chinese influence operation in the United States.

Why would that come up again? You think Tucker just randomly inserted that in there like the Chinese agent thing? I don't think so. Check this out and I'll tell you what I think's going on.

Oh, Donald Trump, he notes, because the Chinese do pay close attention to what we say here. Donald Trump has complained about Hunter, Biden and his ties to the Chinese government. Those are real. He just confirms, so now you know why you weren't allowed to talk about Hunter Biden's laptop, why big business aligned as one the tech companies and the rest to suppress that story because they were implicated in it. Back in October, we interviewed a man called Tony Bob Wolinsky.

We interviewed him because no one else would. Tony. Bob Belinski was a business partner of the Bidens. Here's what he told us about China. And in a document that you guys have in I think it's been provided to you, to the world, the Chinese referenced that because of their trust in the Biden family, the chairman and Director Xang are excited about moving forward in this. And in that document, they reference loaning five million dollars to the bed family.

Right. The family is the Biden family.

So, again, if you're looking to coerce someone, especially an influential member of the Biden family, notably Hunter Biden, Joe Biden's son, how would you do what you develop a blackmail file? How would you get a blackmail file? Number one, you'd engage in shady business operations and money payoffs, knowing what that is going to leave a money trail, you'd want to hide later. And if you'd want to hide it, what would you do? You do anything to hide it, notably doing things against your country's interests and and others interests as well in the interests of China, if you were looking to avoid that money trail being exposed.

That's how that's how I would do it if I needed to influence someone as an intelligence operation overseas. Right. Create a money trail so you can use that money trail to blackmail them later and say, hey, be a real shame if this money trail got out, wouldn't it? But there are other things to. When I was in my prior line of work, whenever you traveled overseas, you would get a country brief the minute you step down inside the embassy.

One of the briefs I got that really opened my eyes was when I spent some significant time in Russia. Oh, my gosh. Be a subject of the malapropism. I spent some time in Russia and you sit down with the RSL or RSL, which is an assistant regional security officer that works for the Diplomatic Security Service, otherwise known as the SS. They run security on the ground there, like the Secret Service of diplomacy. They're very good. Well, the RSL is the guys, the guy or the woman in charge.

They run security for the embassy, the regional security officer. Well, I sat down with I think it was the RSL. Ah, so an assistant when I said right away when I stepped foot in Moscow because I was there working with the Secret Service at the time and I was given a brief. And in that brief, they bring out a book. Or a dossier, we have to say that word and in that book dossier, whatever you want to call it, binders full of women.

You see all kinds of pictures and stuff. There's a lot of black dots in those pictures. A lot of pictures of a lot of people doing a lot of things. If you get what I mean, not all of them are government officials, some of them are business leaders. And why would the Russians do that? Why would they wire up hotel rooms with wires and cameras and everything else to get you doing stuff? You know what I mean?

They would do that because you probably don't want those pictures out. Some of them are really interesting. My. Man, that jujitsu, what is it? Due to gymnast, how did that happen? Some of these pictures are really not good, so when Hunter Biden was traveling overseas. Especially to China, let's say, around 20, 14. Let's say Hunter Biden was at. Joe, I'm just throwing this out there, let's say around twenty fourteen Hunter Biden was at a hotel in Beijing, maybe the Four Seasons.

I'm just guessing. Let's say in twenty fourteen at the Beijing Four Seasons, Hunter Biden was over there. Now, you know, he's gotten this brief by the diplomats on the ground that, hey, there's probably cameras and audio in your hotel room in China at the Four Seasons in twenty fourteen because they want to catch you doing stuff that would probably be embarrassing, that could be used to coerce you later. Let's say in twenty fourteen at the Four Seasons in Beijing, Hunter Biden was there to do a deal with a guy named Johnny.

Johnny. Crazy kind of deal. And let's just say in twenty fourteen. At the Four Seasons, Beijing. Well, he's there to do a deal with a dude named Johnny on the ground. That some friends showed up in the middle of the night. You know what I mean by friends? Fred, friends with. Betty. If you're missing the video here, shame on you. My wife and I have little codes, every husband and wife, they she can read.

This has a meaning. And it's not what you think it is. We're watching the snow rumbled here, so let's say friends with benefits show up in the middle of the night after Hunter Biden had been warned that there's probably video surveillance of your room and those friends with benefits were in there for a really long time.

Is there a compromise file? To coerce Hunter Biden out there. You know, media folks, I'm just it's a legitimate source. Who gave me that maybe look into that. That 2014 trip where he stayed at the Four Seasons in Beijing and did a little deal with Johnny and friends with Bennies. Showed up in the middle of the night. You'll never watch my show the same way again when I do now you know that. That's why left. Friends with bennies.

Lady showing up in the middle of the night, I'm sure they were just there to discuss the business deal with Johnny. You may want to look into that. The only thing is just talking about this story last night, because he just randomly threw Hunter out, and that is Hunter know about this, Tucker know about that story? I don't think so. But does he have probably a large bevy of information about the corrupt financial dealings and other dealings that have gone on in China and some potential corruption with Hunter Biden, financial dealings in China and some potential compromised?

I'm pretty reasonably confident that him and other journalists probably do. Someone may want to look into that be really weird if he was in 2014 at the Four Seasons in Beijing and then a business, there were a guy named Johnny. And some people showed up in the middle and, you know, friends with bennies. I'm not talking about the movie either.

This also explains why John Kerry, our former secretary of state, but as Mark Levin, call a mashed potato face or something. This would also explain why John Kerry, our former secretary of state, has denied from the start knowing anything about Hunter Biden's business dealings in China, despite the fact that we found out yesterday that there are some 20, 14 emails indicating that Biden that the Biden situation was actually briefed to John Kerry. Here's a reporter asking John Kerry questions about the Hunter Biden scenario.

Here's the actual transcript of the question where John Kerry's like Sergeant Schultz style. Joe, I don't know nothing about nothing. About nothing. So this reporter says a secretary of state when Hunter Biden joined the tourism board, were you aware or did you know about at the time or were you comfortable with the arrangement given U.S. secretary of state at the time, John Kerry? I had no knowledge about any of that. None? No. Before the response, even though you were secretary of state at the time and given the vice president's role in this career, what would I know about any.

No, why would I know about any company or any individual? No, the answer is no. No communication, no nothing. I don't know who they are. I don't know what they were doing to this day, actually. But John Kerry is not nearly as good as my Bernie Sanders. I haven't done that in a long time. Why would John Kerry say that? Because he's trying to distance himself. Because everybody knows the train wreck that's come in 100 by.

You think you're going to get folks, I'm telling you right now, I'm going to some this because I even got the part three of the show yet I'm telling you right now there is a file probably this thick on Hunter Biden. And don't be surprised that all the Chinese try to use it. You're an idiot if you and I don't mean like a mild ditty. If you don't believe that you're like a hard core idiot. I mean, like you can't figure out the push pull on a door in the building.

It says pull. And you're like, it's not opening. It's not that kind of an idiot if you believe that. Hat tip to Axios, maybe more people should start doing actual journalism right now.

It's so only we could do this totally off the rails that I, I love that we control it and my executive producer is my wife and I could do whatever I want.

All right. Let's get back to some important stuff. So we're going to just let that stew. What I told you about Hunter Biden. That's not a joke. That information. I mean, I'm handling it with a note of sarcasm because the media is not doing journalism. But that tip I got is very real and very scary. Can you imagine the compromised file on this guy? So what's going on with this election, I got to update you on this, so we have a huge lawsuit out of Texas.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is big news because this lawsuit actually stands a chance and it really depends on the courage of the Supreme Court to take it up. Breitbart has the story. Ken Paxton, the Texas attorney general's, like, can I just sum this up in a nutshell? Throw the Breitbart story of the Texas attorney general like, hey, why do we have to abide by the Constitution this election, Joe? And nobody else does like that.

Sounds kind of weird, right? Like we have a constitutional republic for a reason. Story will be in the show notes today. Joel Pollak, Breitbart, Texas sues Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin at the Supreme Court over election rules. Why didn't someone do this sooner? Texas, you can always count on Texas to, like, save the day for us. Thank you, Ken Paxton. I'll get you a screenshot from the piece in a minute.

But the core of it is very simple. Texas is basically saying in their lawsuit at the Supreme Court, and they did this very smartly, by the way. Well, why do we have to obey the Constitution's format for national elections and nobody else does?

Kind of a common sense question, though. I mean, what's the point of a federalist structure to our constitutional republic if the national constitutional guidelines we all live by and our governing rules and documents only matter to the state, then just have a bunch of independent states? What's the point? Do the European Union mess? So what Texas is saying here is the Constitution lays out how a presidential election is supposed to look and go, but Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Georgia.

Just threw that out the window and Michigan. So from the Breitbart piece, Texas, they did two things I'm going to a very important. And so this is from the lawsuit. The case presents a question of law that the defendant states violate the electors clause in the Constitution by taking I'll translate this to work by taking non legislative actions to change the election rules that would govern the appointment of presidential election electors. These non legislative changes to the defendant's state's election laws facilitated the casting and counting of ballots in violation of state law, which in turn violated the electors cause of Article two, Section one, clause two of the US Constitution.

By these unlawful acts, the defendant states have not only tainted the integrity, listen to this of their own citizens vote, but their actions have also debased the votes of citizens in the plaintiff state and other states that remain loyal to the Constitution. Because on one more point, this is a bill to Buerge. Takeaways from this translation coming shortly where Texas approach the Supreme Court directly because Article three provides that it is the court of first impression on subjects where it has original jurisdiction, such as disputes between two or more states.

Don't worry, simple translation coming. No one can Paxton isn't stupid, so we're going to cover it in reverse order. He wants this in the Supreme Court because time is of the essence. There is a constitutional January 20th deadline for when Donald Trump leaves office. That's the one that really matters. January 20, that's coming up. That's just a matter of chronological time. It's now December 8th. No, hey, it's the. No, thank you.

What time is of the essence? So Ken Paxton, Joe, knowing this Supreme Court is the court of, quote, first impression on disputes between the states decided to sue the other states. What it's got to go to. That's not saying the Supreme Court has to take it right. But knowing they can bypass the other stuff and go right to the Supreme Court genius, everybody tracking them. And hey, brilliant. If we sue the other states and the Supreme Court is the first court that has to hear these lawsuits, state on state, that it's probably a good idea to bypass these lower channels and sue the other states.

The verdict is in. Nice move there, buddy. So that's the first takeaway. They cover that at the end of that screenshot from the Breitbart piece. But to get a case in front of any court. There has to be some injury, Joe, in other words, it's very difficult for Joe to sue on my behalf if he's not my lawyer. In other words, let's say someone says, you know, Dan Bongino is a space alien and I want to sue for defamation.

I have to sue because the injuries to me, Joe, had Sue, if he's not my attorney filing the paperwork, Joe can't sue and say I feel injured because they wrote about Dan Bongino. I have no standing. You have here. So there you go. Guy's a genius. No, let me tell you something. The best ombudsman in the business you need standing. Thank you. Lawyer Joe wearing many hats. Thank you, sir. So Texas has to claim some injury to Texas.

So you may be saying to yourself, well, how can they do that if they're suing Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and what's the other one? Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Georgia. Genius Texas says at the end of their filing, if you go back and rewind the tape and look at that, screenshot that, hey, because these four states took nine legislative actions to change their Election Day laws and regulations, rules and regulations, I should say they didn't change the law.

What are non legislative actions that means the courts got involved and they just randomly created new bureaucratic rules, no new laws. The states did not amend their constitutions and their legislative chambers did not choose the electors. According to what the US Constitution says, they have to legislatively do it and they didn't. Everybody tracking me, Texas is saying these four states have to, by the Constitution, go through legislative means to change the way they conduct a national election.

And they didn't do it. Judges did it, and bureaucrats, they did not do that. So you may be saying, OK, so they have a that's that sounds like a good case. But what's the injury Texas is saying, because they did that, that had changed the results of a national election, that in turn impacted voters. In Texas. Mm hmm. Ice, he's. Beautiful job. Now, is the Supreme Court going to have the guts to take this case up?

I don't know. We'll see. But that's a damn good case. I got to move on to my last spot, I want to get to Georgia, part two, what we discussed yesterday. But let me just sum this up for you. Texas is basically saying this. Hey, because you dunce's in these four states can't follow the Constitution and you just randomly changed your election laws, you violated the Constitution's legislative process for selecting electors, you screwed us in Texas.

So we're taking you right to the Supreme Court. If Texas gets to the Supreme Court wins this case. They're going to have a real problem, these four states. We'll keep our eye on that. All right, don't go anywhere. I want to walk through this Georgia thing again and a great article in Red State kind of lays out why it's going to be in the show notes. But I want to go through what they're doing and just this.

So we've been covering this Georgia story and this video out of the Georgia State Farm Arena in Fulton County of what appears to be some suspicious activity processing ballots on election night and early into the following morning. Now, I covered the video on Friday where we played it, where you have ballots being removed from under the table after ballot.

Observers who are watching the count had left the room. I covered the subsequent outcry by the left wing media who was like that video has been debunked while simultaneously confirming every allegation in there. Let's walk through this. If you were going to commit some kind of election fraud. How would you do it? Well, if Trump was ahead in the vote and ahead dramatically like he was on election night, you would have to stop the bleeding. Why? Well, the answer is obvious, the first part is because you don't want the idea to set in that Joe Biden's lost and the public psyche to get in their head, that Donald Trump won re-election because then it's hard.

Remember what I told you about I never forgot this hanging around these Clinton and Gore staffers when I was a young agent. I know one of the great regrets of the Gore Bush campaign when Bush Bush won, but there was a disputed election. One of the great regrets of the Democrats was letting the ideas set in early that Al Gore had conceded the election. Why? Because in the public's mind, George W. Bush was then the president elect and Gore was fighting him.

You get it. They understood that from the start. They were never going to repeat that mistake again here. So they never, ever wanted in your head the Democrats and their media bootlicking, sycophantic acolytes, they never wanted in your head for a second that Trump had won. So they had to stop the bleeding of right away. So how would you stop the bleeding if you thought you were going to lose? And you're Joe Biden. You stop the count.

So the idea never gets in anyone's head that Trump won. Then make sure the media narrative never sets in the Trump won the election, the Transition Integrity Project that left this group that was calling for a street fight after the election already addressed this stuff. Look at this piece in Vox where they're very concerned about the media talking about a Trump landslide. This was before the election. August 20 20, how to avert a post-election nightmare, fox with a V, not Fox with an F, it's a left leaning website.

Here is the Transition Integrity Project, a group of like this very concerned about a Trump victory by narrow Trump victory or a blowout. They said, quote, We anticipate lawsuits and divergent media narratives, attempts to stop the counting of ballots and protest, drawing people from both sides. This is unbelievable. They're actually laying out what they did and blaming it on Trump. Stop the counting of ballots and prevent Joe Divergent media narratives divergent from what divergent from their narrative that Biden won even if he didn't, everybody picking this up, they told you what they were going to do.

There's going to be one narrative and one narrative only regardless of the outcome. Joe Biden won and Trump is fighting against Biden to steal it. No matter what happened, that was going to be their narrative. Nothing was going to diverge from it. They are also saying. If Trump said they're going to want to stop the vote count, no, that's what they did. That's what happened in Georgia in the middle of the night. They said we're going to stop the vote, count observers, you can go home.

And they did. They leaked out to the media, pun intended, there's a water main break in the State Farm arena. We have to stop counting because you need an excuse to stop counting. Why? Because you stopped counting in the most important election of our lifetime. So if I was going to do it while Trump was ahead, I'd stop the bleeding to prevent divergent media narratives diverging from your narrative that Biden won. I would then have the observers go home.

Blame it on something you leaked to the media like a water pipe burst, which was an overflowing urinal. I would then continue counting with no observer around. I then pull some ballots from under the table. And conveniently, a lot of those ballots would spike for Joe Biden, which I counted without any observers around. I'm just saying that's how I would do it if I was going to commit massive voter fraud to influence a national election. And what if those ballots that were counted during those times, observers weren't around after you said you stopped counting in order to stop the bleeding or the loss in Georgia?

What if those ballots you counted spiked dramatically?

As you can see in this photo hat tip, Eric trumps social media feed if they spiked dramatically for Joe Biden. Rumbled Bonjean, if you'd like to see this little chart, you'll notice the blue are votes for Joe Biden. You'll notice the red are votes for Donald Trump. You'll notice the blue is a lot taller than the red. So that's how I would do it. Stop the bleeding, tell everyone the vote counting or stop because Trump is winning.

Have the observers go home? Bring out a stack of ballots to benefit Biden and count them with no one around, and then when you need a reason to tell people the vote stopped, you stopped counting the votes when you did, in fact, stop counting votes, make up a reason about a water pipe. First thing that was, in fact, a urinal running a little extra aguaje there. Why am I bringing this up again, because there's an excellent piece in Red State by our friend shipwrecked crew.

That's his nom de plume. This article in the show notes encourage you to read it. Guy knows the stuff. You that Constellation newsletter, if you'd like to read it, he says, proving fraud in the Fulton County ballot counting room, that's the state from Arena talking about a prosecutor's perspective. Shipwreck crew has some legal experience and he says something needs to happen right now about this Georgia tape. Folks, we can put these rumors and allegations of malfeasance and counting to bed right away.

Joe, how. By conducting an investigation is yet wears the FBI on this. If there was no malfeasance or misfeasance, folks, that's great news. I'm not hoping for fraud, unlike lunatic leftists. I'm hoping even if we lost, that we can at least count on our election system and fight another day. I'm not hoping for fraud, but if there is fraud, I damn well want to know about it. So our buddy shipwrecked crew over Red State has a great idea, screenshot from his piece, a very simple one.

Again, not rocket science, folks. Quote, Every person who was in the room needs to be interviewed by the FBI, we're providing false information is actually crime. What instructions were they given, what did they say in response who seem to be in charge? What did that person do? Who did they speak with? Did you overhear what was said? Did anyone tell you later what was said, etc.? Genius. Maybe we just interview people and ask them what happened.

Folks, there are three scenarios I wrote down that could result from that. No one, ladies and gentlemen, could very well be an innocent explanation. Could have been some just mistaken, I thought we were going home when we weren't. I misinterpreted my instructions from the supervisor. The observers left. It was a mistake we counted. We shouldn't have. But here are the ballots. They're legitimate. We're going to signature verify them could be an innocent explanation.

Kind of weird for but it could be. Again, I'm not putting that up at the sign outside of the realm of possibility. Explanation number two for the Georgia video. It could be localized, fraudulent activity where people in the room just decided for whatever reason they were going to violate election law, maybe they were lazy, maybe they weren't fraudulent ballots, maybe they were legitimate ballots, but they just got pissed off at the observers and kicked. The observers have to do it in violation of the rules.

We got to know that, too, so it doesn't happen again. But ladies and gentlemen, the third scenario, given the variables that still don't have an explanation why the observers left, why they said it was a water break, why they stopped counting and continued to count, why they put ballots underneath the table, why it appears they process the multiple times. They don't have an explanation yet. The third explanation for this whole thing is this is a larger conspiracy.

Is it possible? We'll see. But our friendship breakthrough is right in my experience as an investigator, ladies and gentlemen, the reason you bring people in and you put them under oath and you interview them to eliminate. The possibility of a larger conspiracy of fraudulent activity and to get to the hopefully innocent explanation. It's ladies and gentlemen. Lies are really hard to remember. And they're really hard to remember multiple times. One of the things I used to do when I was doing counterfeit investigations, counterfeit money, you know, printing fake money.

When I was a young agent. Is I would ask the guy or woman who passed the counterfeit bill is usually 20. They rarely did hundreds because, you know, people check hundreds, multiple, the 20s, they can get real quick and get them through at the 7-Eleven or whatever.

But one of the things I would do is I would bring in the guy who passed the counterfeit bill. And I would ask him to tell the story multiple times, I'd have him tell the story, I'd go take a five minute break, I'd come back and say, hey, can you repeat this part of the story? And why would I do that? Because, ladies and gentlemen, lies are really, really hard to remember. And one of the things I would get them on are the deetz.

The details. So by the third or fourth telling of the same story, they would start to screw up the details because they can't remember their own lives. I'm not suggesting if these people are interviewed, phone county, they would lie, but I'm telling you, if they did by the third or fourth telling, they would probably forget what they said the first time. So one particular incident happened to me one time where a guy said, yeah, so I took the bill.

You know, it was crumpled up in my in my pocket and I gave it to the clerk. And, gosh, I didn't realize, you know, it was counterfeit or whatever. So I went back, took a little break, and I actually had the bill because we get it from the bank because it's counterfeit. The bank detects counterfeit and they send it to the Secret Service. I think it was a 7-Eleven and I said I walked back and I said, can you tell me again how you got that bill out of pocket?

He said, Yeah, yeah. I was, like, crumpled up in the corner of my pocket. I pulled it out and I just didn't notice anything. And I, I said, that's funny because I have this bill right here. And it's perfectly flat without a wrinkle in it. That's definitely not a. I do that all the time, they would always screw the story up. We got that guy, of course, in Bethwaite, so prosecuted him locally, but.

Probably a good idea to interview these people, because lies are really, really hard to remember and the details of your lies get even hard to remember, especially when you ask them to tell the same story three or four times. Let me make one final point, Abi, about why everybody involved in this needs to be interviewed again, they could be entirely innocent. That's a possibility. I don't want to stigmatize anyone. There's been no allegation of criminality here, fraudulent activity.

Yes, there have been allegations about that. But not criminality. But I want to make one other point, my experience interviewing people and why these people should be interviewed to put this thing to bed. As ladies and gentlemen, there's no loyalty amongst people if if they were involved in some fraudulent scheme, don't think for a second there's any. What's your honor among thieves? I'm not suggesting they were thieves, but I'm telling you, in my experience, dealing with actual thieves, honor with thieves is a total fairy tale nonsense myth.

Put that baby to bed. People rat each other out so fast it don't even like it takes like two seconds. It does. The minute you get them, they rat everybody and their mother out. They'll rat their mother out to get out of trouble. There is no honor among thieves at all if people interviewed in this were involved in potentially fraudulent activity. If. And you interview them. Someone's going to say, hey, listen, this is B.S. I was asked to do this by this guy.

They told us to kick these people out. I'm not taking a hit for this guy. Great. Then we can get to the bottom of it. These folks need to be interviewed. The FBI may be doing it. I don't have inside it for me if they are great, if they're not, I don't know what you're waiting for. These are very serious allegations. That video is damning. We have no sensible explanation for it. If you're not interviewing them, I really you have no purpose whatsoever.
