00:00:00.000 I know that about Butler, I know that Trump shut down the investigation into Butler.
00:00:04.800 That is a fact.
00:00:05.560 Dan Bongino told me that when he worked at the FBI.
00:00:08.800 And Dan Bongino himself was terrified when I spoke to him in December.
00:00:14.900 It's such a long, boring story.
00:00:16.220 But basically, I came into possession, I beg your pardon, of accidentally came into possession of a lot of the social media posts that we were told didn't exist that were posted by Thomas Crooks in the months and years before the shooting.
00:00:30.000 And I was amazed that the FBI had lied about this.
00:00:32.380 So I called Kash Patel and I later called Dan Bongino
00:00:35.660 and I says, you know, what is this?
00:00:37.040 I'm not attacking you.
00:00:37.960 It was the previous FBI administration that did this.
00:00:41.600 It was Chris Wray, but what is this?
00:00:44.240 And Dan Bongino became hysterical with me on the phone.
00:00:47.780 I've known Dan a long time for many years
00:00:50.100 and always gotten along with him.
00:00:52.740 You know, whatever his faults, you know, nice guy.
00:00:55.100 Nice, certainly very nice to me.
00:00:56.360 I never had a problem with Dan ever.
00:00:58.700 And that problem began when I brought this information to his attention, and he became a different person.
00:01:04.860 He was clearly terrified. I didn't get it at first, but he was hysterical.
00:01:08.920 And ultimately, after a long series of text exchanges, which I still have, and phone conversations, he said, look, take it up with Trump.
00:01:17.740 He's the one who shut down the investigation.
00:01:19.780 And that was, I think, the first or second week of December.
00:01:23.240 I think it was the beginning of the second week of December.
00:01:25.880 I have it written down.
00:01:26.540 but that was the moment and i realized oh wow you know there's no good explanation for shutting
00:01:31.920 down an investigation into your own attempted murder like this is not what we've been told
00:01:36.020 it was tucker carlson claims terrified dan bongino told him shut down butler assassination
00:01:42.380 investigation himself 100 who do you think i remember trump when it started getting covered
00:01:48.460 up he's like well i think we should look at that there's some questions maybe they're not going to
00:01:51.280 be able to for some other reasons and i just i saw trump then a few months into the cover-up last
00:01:57.380 year i've been about like july or august and i went that's it he he's covering up he's covering
00:02:03.880 it all up and then yes he's the one obviously that told cash patel the reason i know is patel
00:02:11.400 came in and said the president wants this gabbard you're not to be involved in internal intelligence
00:02:16.920 even though that office was set up for 9-11 to coordinate foreign and domestic
00:02:20.660 so that the agencies all share information.
00:02:23.800 So he yelled at Tulsi Gabbard.
00:02:25.760 He yelled at Joe Kent.
00:02:27.940 He said, I'm in charge of intelligence domestically,
00:02:30.660 and you were ordered not to investigate it,
00:02:33.220 and that's under orders of the president.
00:02:35.180 I told you that back in September,
00:02:37.520 whenever the last time I was on Tucker in the winter at his house in Maine,
00:02:42.940 We had to tape about an hour late, and I barely made my plane in Maine flying out that night.
00:02:52.300 Because we were supposed to start taping at like 10 a.m.
00:02:55.140 Tucker and I had breakfast, but he had to get on the phone with Bongino and Trump in his office,
00:03:02.220 which is just right there through the kitchen, right there.
00:03:06.860 He's in there talking to him.
00:03:07.940 I can hear it through the wall when listening, but I can hear him talking and arguing.
00:03:12.220 And he comes out and he goes, oh, my God, Bongino, it's so crazy.
00:03:16.920 You know, don't tell anybody this, but, yeah, they've ordered a cover-up.
00:03:19.840 And I don't know why Trump would order a cover-up of Butler, but this is just a disaster.
00:03:26.800 And he told me a lot more, obviously.
00:03:35.160 I knew the inside baseball on this.
00:03:37.160 but because it was sources that I couldn't give the sources. I've mentioned it, but I didn't go
00:03:43.840 there. And also, it just seems gratuitous early on to just bash Trump. So I didn't really hold
00:03:51.820 back. I've mentioned this some. People got really pissed off at me a year ago and ongoing since
00:03:58.700 they kicked Elon out. But Tucker's spilling his guts now. And by the way, everything he's saying
00:04:04.740 is true trump's never denied any of it about their conversations trump would constantly call
00:04:10.020 him every day i'd been at tucker's house both his houses just leaving last year and he'd have to go
00:04:17.220 talk to trump for 45 minutes and said oh you know off record it was just good now he's talked about
00:04:22.760 this i can talk about it he just won't get off it's just you know i'm i got netanyahu threatening
00:04:27.660 me and i'm just trying to stop a war and you know i care about israel too and yeah you know you you
00:04:33.080 no, it's Trump killing all the investigations, and then you've got Bongino and all them falling
00:04:38.280 on his sword. Hold on, Bongino's talking. And then he goes into his office for 45 minutes. He
00:04:42.960 goes, oh, my God. So, I mean, I'm there when Trump and Bongino and Netanyahu are calling
00:04:47.700 at his house in Maine and in Florida. And he's just literally like, ooh. So back then,
00:04:54.720 He had massive influence. And Trump had him running around as like an unofficial envoy doing secret diplomacy, which is totally legal if the president wants you to do it.
00:05:09.520 And so. Tucker told me back at the time, you know, he's just like off record, he's like, you know, it's Trump killing.
00:05:18.020 all of it and I'd already said that I could already look at it from the outside and see it
00:05:23.640 and then watch him at press conferences and things but this is the latest thing and it's
00:05:27.960 a big story because it goes to everything we're dealing with Bongino called up all panicked
00:05:34.240 um last year and and said Trump's ordering us to shut down any investigation into Butler
00:05:41.820 and to say that there was no social media of crooks.
00:05:46.100 Well, then Tucker magically got sent all of it and published it.
00:05:49.900 They did not, it was, you know, real.
00:05:52.160 And it was him as this big leftist and the rest of it.
00:05:55.440 Why did Trump order that kill?
00:05:58.840 And now Tucker's gone public with Marietta Fall and talked about it.
00:06:01.300 We got the clip coming up.
00:06:02.220 I mean, this is a big deal that goes into everything.
00:06:04.860 What the hell is going on with Trump? 0.95
00:06:07.840 Killing an investigation in his own attempt at an assassin. 0.94
00:06:10.280 that adds a lot of weight to it, Michael Yon says.
00:06:15.660 The first thing I wanted to hit was this.
00:06:18.560 And it isn't about me being vindicated.
00:06:20.680 It's about understanding the thought process
00:06:22.420 and having the sources and knowing the things.
00:06:25.520 If you remember about five months into the Trump administration,
00:06:29.800 back in May of last year, Elon gets run out.
00:06:37.000 He says, Trump's in the Epstein files.
00:06:38.580 They're covering it up.
00:06:39.320 I'm not going to be part of this.
00:06:42.720 And then I see Bongino and Patel and all of them coming out
00:06:47.560 and saying there's nothing there.
00:06:49.320 Epstein killed himself.
00:06:50.620 He wasn't a human trafficker.
00:06:51.800 He had no accomplices.
00:06:53.360 There was no accomplices at Butler.
00:06:56.560 There was no accomplices in Mar-a-Lago when the guy came to kill Trump.
00:07:02.020 And they look like you're in the headlights on Fox.
00:07:04.060 I said, they've been told to do that by Trump.
00:07:09.320 Because I know whatever they go on Fox News and say is what Trump tells me to do.
00:07:17.220 And so at the time I said, listen, everybody freaking out about this.
00:07:24.160 Needs to understand Trump's ordered this.
00:07:26.040 People got so mad at me.
00:07:28.320 But about two weeks later, Trump starts coming out of press conferences saying, I told them to move on to law enforcement.
00:07:35.140 You can play the clips if you don't remember it. 1.00
00:07:36.420 you're not MAGA if you want to look into Epstein you're an idiot controlled by the Democrats 1.00
00:07:44.360 and I'm like okay well it's mainly Democrats implicated in there you're actually covering 0.99
00:07:49.700 up for them and I said this will be super unpopular with your base so if you're going
00:07:55.080 to cover it up which I'm not advising to do but just from a Machiavellian perspective shut up
00:07:59.220 about it remember that like stop attacking your constituents that are concerned about it that's
00:08:05.120 to create a Streisand effect and derail your entire agenda. And I was just wargaming it.
00:08:10.080 I said, it's wrong. It's going to backfire. But I just said, even from their perspective,
00:08:14.320 it's stupid. People spun it and said, Jones is telling Trump, stop drawing attention to it and 1.00
00:08:19.600 cover it up. No, I was explaining how, even from his perspective to cover it up, how crazy it was.
00:08:24.700 So why was he doing that? I was looking at every angle. And I told you back then there was a
00:08:29.820 White House freakout. They had cabinet meetings with J.D. Vance running them. I had that from
00:08:33.620 people in the meetings how many of these cabinet meetings have I first exposed it's not because
00:08:39.860 I'm the biggest insider everyone else is scared to break it except Tucker
00:08:45.940 and in some cases Tucker's told me stuff because he's now come out with this so I'm not breaking
00:08:54.000 confidence and said yeah because he was still in the White House and still there if you give me a
00:08:58.160 A few little things.
00:08:59.020 I'll leave it at that.
00:09:00.420 But I got it from other people about Cash Patel ordering them.
00:09:04.340 No looking into foreign accomplices in Charlie Kirk's murder last September.
00:09:12.000 No looking at domestic accomplices that were all bragging he'll be dead 0.65
00:09:14.720 tomorrow in the town on the tranny sites, tranny message boards, discords.
00:09:22.020 And then, of course, months later came out exactly about the meeting
00:09:24.340 and who was there and what happened.
00:09:25.400 That was from two people in the meeting that said, yeah, just don't give all these specific
00:09:30.320 details, but here's the details, but they'll know it's who it is if you give these.
00:09:34.860 Later, when it starts to come out, you can give them more details.
00:09:38.460 And then I had other sources, obviously, that I'll just leave it at that, that are smart
00:09:43.500 enough to not contact me, but contact Harrison, who also concurred with the analysis.
00:09:51.120 So Harrison was one of the big sources.
00:09:53.600 Remember, Harrison said Charlie Kirk's afraid Israel's going to kill him very soon.
00:09:58.020 He put that on X a month before.
00:10:01.020 And, of course, it wasn't the Easter Bunny gave him that information.
00:10:05.540 So my point is, is that I just dutifully reported to you the truth on Kirk, on Trump, on all of it.
00:10:11.340 So now let me give you the news here, and I'll get to what Tucker had to say.
00:10:15.360 So I'm just waiting for him to just start bringing this stuff out, because for all my sources, he's got 10 times more.
00:10:20.980 Nobody's got the sources he's got. 0.99
00:10:23.140 He's got them out the ass, okay? 0.99
00:10:24.800 Up one side and down the other. 0.99
00:10:29.200 But from all my sources, and it's now all you've seen him do it on TV, 0.97
00:10:33.660 say shut up about it.
00:10:34.940 Trump killed the Butler investigation into what really happened. 0.95
00:10:37.660 He killed the Mar-a-Lago assassination investigation.
00:10:40.860 He ordered Cash Patel to not look into foreign powers involved in the killing of Kirk.
00:10:48.040 This is right around the time Netanyahu was saying I didn't kill Charlie Kirk
00:10:51.120 out of the blue sky.
00:10:52.700 and so i'm just going to report the facts people are like what are you doing bashing trump the
00:11:01.480 democrats will get him i'm just going to report the facts just to be done by heaven's fault plus
00:11:06.820 it's trump doing the cover-ups and trump ordering the epstein cover-up and trump launching the war
00:11:12.400 with israel that killed the economy and boosting inflation he's the one hurting trump not me
00:11:19.920 Being in some cult and saluting everything and every mistake he makes, 1.00
00:11:23.260 everything he does is stupid, and I won't be part of it. 1.00
00:11:30.220 So, yeah, put that news headline back up. 1.00
00:11:34.960 Tucker Carlson, Trump.
00:11:38.960 Tucker Carlson claims, terrified Dan Bongino,
00:11:42.360 told him shut down Butler assassination investigation himself.
00:11:47.740 100%.
00:11:48.220 Who do you think?
00:11:48.720 And I remember Trump, when it started getting covered up, he's like, well, I think we should
00:11:51.800 look at that.
00:11:52.460 There's some questions.
00:11:53.140 Maybe they're not going to be able to for some other reasons.
00:11:55.860 And I just, I saw Trump then a few months into the cover-up last year, I've been about
00:12:01.220 like July or August.
00:12:02.240 And I went, that's it.
00:12:04.060 He's covering up.
00:12:05.500 He's covering it all up.
00:12:07.420 And then, yes, he's the one, obviously, that told Kash Patel.
00:12:11.440 The reason I know is Patel came in and said, the president wants this.
00:12:16.360 Gabbard, you're not to be involved in internal intelligence,
00:12:19.280 even though that office was set up for 9-11 to coordinate foreign and domestic
00:12:23.020 so that the agencies all share information.
00:12:26.360 So he yelled at Tulsi Gabbard.
00:12:28.140 He yelled at Joe Kent.
00:12:30.300 He said, I'm in charge of intelligence domestically,
00:12:33.040 and you were ordered not to investigate it,
00:12:35.580 and that's under orders of the president.
00:12:37.560 I told you that back in September.
00:12:40.520 The meeting happened five days after Charlie was killed.
00:12:43.360 I was on air the day after.
00:12:45.700 that cabinet meeting.
00:12:51.260 So there's the inside baseball.
00:12:54.360 So this is a fact.
00:12:56.480 And so you have to ask yourself,
00:12:58.220 why in God's green earth would Trump be doing this?
00:13:03.860 We'll get into that in a moment,
00:13:04.960 but first here he is,
00:13:05.900 there's Tucker Carlson tomorrow in the fall.
00:13:08.640 I know that about Butler,
00:13:10.280 I know that Trump shut down the investigation into Butler.
00:13:13.700 That is a fact.
00:13:14.460 Dan Bongino told me that.
00:13:15.700 when he worked at the FBI and Dan Bongino himself was terrified when I spoke to him in December.
00:13:23.800 It's such a long boring story, but basically I came into possession, I beg your pardon, of
00:13:28.880 accidentally came into possession of a lot of the social media posts that we were told didn't exist
00:13:34.640 that were posted by Thomas Crooks in the months and years before the shooting.
00:13:38.820 And I was amazed that the FBI had lied about this. So I called Cash Patel and I later called Dan
00:13:44.180 Bongino. And I says, you know, what is this? I'm not attacking you. It was the previous FBI
00:13:48.600 administration that did this. It was Chris Ray. But what is this? And Dan Bongino became
00:13:54.680 hysterical with me on the phone. I've known Dan a long time for many years and always got along
00:14:00.640 with him. You know, whatever his fault say, you know, nice guy. Nice. Certainly very nice to me.
00:14:05.240 I never had a problem with Dan ever. And that problem began when I brought this information
00:14:10.940 to his attention. And he became a different person. He was clearly terrified. I didn't get
00:14:15.220 it at first, but he was hysterical. And ultimately, after a long series of text exchanges,
00:14:21.620 which I still have, and phone conversations, he said, look, take it up with Trump. He's the one
00:14:27.100 who shut down the investigation. And that was, I think, the first or second week of December. I
00:14:32.320 think it was the beginning of the second week of December. I have it written down. But that was
00:14:36.620 the moment and I realized oh wow you know there's no good explanation for shutting down an investigation
00:14:41.520 into your own attempted murder like this is not what we've been told it was yeah we've got to look
00:14:47.660 it up it's whenever the last time I was on Tucker in the winter at his house in Maine we had to tape
00:14:56.300 about an hour late and I barely made my plane in um in Maine flying out that night because we're
00:15:05.080 supposed to start taping at like 10 a.m. Tucker and I had breakfast, but he had to get on the
00:15:09.700 phone with Bongino and Trump in his office, which is just right there through the kitchen,
00:15:18.420 you know, right there. He's in there talking to him. I can hear it through the wall and listening,
00:15:21.820 but I can hear him talking and arguing. And he comes out and he goes, oh my God, Bongino.
00:15:26.820 He says, it's so crazy. You know, don't tell anybody this, but yeah, they've ordered a cover
00:15:31.340 up. And I don't know why Trump would order a cover up of Butler, but this is just, this is a
00:15:37.420 disaster. And he told me a lot more, obviously. But the point is I've studied Butler and you don't
00:15:49.280 have them trying to just graze his ear with the best shooter in the world from 150 yards with
00:15:54.640 Trump weaving around everywhere. And you don't have obviously another shooter back towards the
00:15:58.780 water tower and we have the trajectory we have the shots the video of the bullet coming in and
00:16:03.220 hitting shirts and bags and hitting a person most people got shot one guy died the firefighter
00:16:09.520 i mean but then you have the crew there was already a professional crew so that's what they
00:16:14.580 do but lowering the flag behind him when it happens and you know all being there that a
00:16:18.060 pulitzer prize winning uh photographer there and it was cnn hadn't covered any of his rallies for
00:16:23.620 years they were there at that but but i mean it looks completely real real people got shot real
00:16:29.040 brains got blown out i've seen people's raw private you know citizen footage you can see
00:16:34.840 other bullets coming in from a whole nother angle about 50 60 degrees from where crooks was you got
00:16:42.240 crooks walking around for nine minutes on top everybody when he's got a gun he's got a gun
00:16:45.420 they told us the secret service shot him they stood down it was a cop shot him 0.88
00:16:49.400 you have crooks his whole background the uh cleanup of his house you know no utensils no
00:16:57.880 cutlery he could eat off the floor them covering up foreign connections that were reportedly in 0.93
00:17:02.120 his phone saying he didn't have all the social media as a leftist which he did which they
00:17:05.980 covered up which later came out so then what is trump really doing because because he just
00:17:13.040 looks real to me and everything happening, but then why would he cover it up? Or did he finally
00:17:20.680 get scared and, say, made a deal with Israel or whatever consortium Israel was involved in did
00:17:26.680 this? And then Charlie Kirk would make a deal, so they deep-sixed his ass. We'll be right back 1.00
00:17:34.880 straight ahead. Powerful information. Stay with us. We have the very best, strongest methylene
00:17:43.020 blue from a medical-grade company that produces it for medical firms. Instead of using radioactive
00:17:48.920 iodine, you know, detracts it before surgeries, they're more and more using methylene blue.
00:17:53.660 So I told Bigly, I said, get me wherever the highest rate it is. So they spent like six months
00:17:56.920 and said, where is it? And they said, oh, this is a medical firm in Florida. They don't even sell
00:18:00.160 this for human consumption, though it's great for that. And I'm like, okay, great. So some bottles
00:18:04.720 of it came and sat there about a week. Because I've taken methylene blue before, barely felt any
00:18:07.640 energy, knew it was really good for your mitochondria. So if it's time to sell it,
00:18:10.760 We're going to do it.
00:18:11.280 Kennedy's promoting it.
00:18:12.040 This was a year and a half ago, almost years ago.
00:18:14.020 They're like, hey, boss, you know, it's coming out tomorrow.
00:18:16.480 You got to cut the ads.
00:18:17.880 I went, well, I haven't tried it yet.
00:18:19.620 This better be good.
00:18:20.760 And so the show ends, and I had a glass of iced tea, just like I do today.
00:18:26.860 Okay?
00:18:28.420 And I take one dropper and put it in the iced tea.
00:18:30.900 And so I only drink half the iced tea.
00:18:32.640 So I took half a dropper, and all of a sudden I'm, like, feeling warm and, like, electricity in my hands.
00:18:37.520 I'd forgotten I'd taken it because I'm busy doing something at the show.
00:18:39.800 and I go into the bathroom and I take my shirt off and I've turned red not like hives like I
00:18:45.660 was it was it was distributed I'm already pretty tan tan good a little bit American
00:18:49.380 the benefits of that but I was like even redder and I was like what is this and I'm like
00:18:55.040 electricity go oh that's what people say methylene blue does if it's really good
00:18:58.860 and I was like and I started feeling so good I was like this is kind of scary
00:19:02.860 and about an hour into it I go I hope this stops because it was getting too good that happened to
00:19:07.540 Derek, he took it and said, I was scared to take it.
00:19:09.940 I thought he was on acid.
00:19:10.960 So it's psychoactive everything, okay?
00:19:12.820 I mean, this is not a freaking game, okay?
00:19:14.640 It skips the oxygenation process, two steps in the cells,
00:19:17.840 and all this other wild stuff.
00:19:19.640 And so my medical doctor six, seven years ago,
00:19:21.820 wellness clinic's all at the state.
00:19:23.100 He's got like five, six, seven, eight degrees. 0.90
00:19:25.040 It's ridiculous.
00:19:25.680 He said, and by the way, I want you to get methylene blue. 0.92
00:19:28.560 It'll be USP grade.
00:19:29.580 Just get it wherever.
00:19:30.620 Just make sure it's USP grade, meaning it's medical grade.
00:19:33.640 And I ordered it and tried it and really didn't feel any energy.
00:19:36.280 you, but I'm sure it was good for me, but I'd forget to take it.
00:19:38.620 So I was like, okay, everybody wants methylene blue. I know it's good. We'll get it. We'll
00:19:40.920 sell it. You'll get the best. I take this, and it is nothing like any methylene blue
00:19:45.580 I ever took. I mean, it is strong. It's amazing. But just like Group told me with the pure
00:19:50.360 atomic iodine that it would do great stuff in my skin, those liver spots I had, you can
00:19:55.780 go back to shows 14, 15 years ago before Group came along, and you can see those spots I
00:20:00.680 had. They're gone, baby. Gone. Literally gone. It's amazing. But within two weeks of taking
00:20:08.160 the methylene blue, the guy I trained with was like, Hey, are you on something? Did you get
00:20:13.280 steroid prescription or something? I was like, no. And he goes, what's going on? I mean, you're
00:20:18.920 losing weight even quicker. And now you're used to have trouble doing 10 pull-ups and you just
00:20:23.500 did 20. And, and, and man, you, you're like pushing like on the leg press twice what you
00:20:29.820 were a month ago what the hell's going on dude you're like glowing and sean johnson told the
00:20:34.620 story and i said it's methylene blue he's a former navy seal navy seal trainer all that he took it
00:20:39.940 gave his testimony about how within 30 minutes he was all zinned out and it was crazy and everything
00:20:44.500 this stuff really works now when you first take it you get the crazy effects psychologically you
00:20:49.300 always feel the energy some but as it builds up it's not even a tolerance it's when your body
00:20:53.000 hasn't had this it really notices it but the first time you take it i say take a quarter dropper
00:20:58.720 Talk to your physician, too, because if you're on SSRIs or some other drugs, it'll make you jump off a building.
00:21:04.160 I mean, people have taken methylene blue when they're on Prozac, and they jump off buildings.
00:21:08.720 Okay?
00:21:09.620 That's rare. 1.00
00:21:10.300 Usually women just pull their clothes off and start having orgies and stuff. 1.00
00:21:12.680 I mean, I'm serious. 1.00
00:21:13.500 Okay? 0.93
00:21:13.700 I mean, like, you want to go cuckoo town, take this with SSRIs, and you're going to cuckoo town because that's how strong this is.
00:21:22.420 Okay? 0.99
00:21:23.140 That's what this does, and we know it's good for you. 0.97
00:21:25.180 But but this is not a joke, okay, I don't sell crap 0.98
