Inflation is low, consumer sentiment is high, and the economy is doing great. Why does the Fed keep raising interest rates? Is it because they don't want inflation to take off? Or is it because the Fed is worried that higher rates are hurting the economy?
00:08:45.040So Donald Trump wins once again, as he's now got Alina Habba coming back in as U.S. attorney of the great state of New Jersey.
00:08:55.460And Habba, I have to say, has done a tremendous job so far in New Jersey going after that Marxist rogue Democrat letting her know when you remember when they raided that whole ice facility, letting them know they're not going to be able to get away with this sort of lawfare anymore.
00:11:54.020They're essentially, they make things up about people.
00:11:57.560They spread it to the people in the press.
00:12:00.440They get them to run the fake news stories.
00:12:02.640And then even worse, when they find different ways to feed it into the FBI.
00:12:07.880And all of these things sort of started coming together in a very unusual fashion.
00:12:11.160I said, Devin, we're following the money and I'm going to tell you right now that the DNC and Hillary paid for this.
00:12:16.280It was 9 a.m. on a weekday and he literally looks at me and he goes, Cash, if you're going to start drinking this morning, get out of my office.
00:12:25.660And it's the easiest thing to follow because you have to document it in some fashion or you got to move in some way.
00:12:30.380We were able to, pursuant to the judge's authority, allow myself and one other colleague to visit bank's attorneys and review in closed session the records.
00:12:44.540And we were not allowed to disclose it to anybody what we reviewed.
00:12:47.400And then finally, on the eve of the ruling of the court, Fusion disclosed that Christopher Steele had been paid by the DNC themselves.
00:12:59.640There were names that would eventually come out that were being paid by Fusion.
00:13:05.400Fusion, names now that are public, but at the time weren't, Nellie Orr, the wife of Bruce Orr, was being paid by Fusion GPS.
00:13:13.760We would come to learn to do Russian intelligence information gathering and then submit it to the FBI.
00:13:21.460We were able to figure out that the attorneys, Perkins Coie, were the attorneys for the DNC.
00:13:30.400Nellie had been working, Bruce's wife, had been working for Fusion GPS.
00:13:34.560The folks that Perkins Coie paid $10 million to and then they took that $10 million and paid Christopher Steele $168,000 to dig up dirt.
00:13:43.400They paid Nellie Orr, I think, $50,000 to do her research against the president and his daughter.
00:13:48.860And they fed all of that directly to the bureau, who then used it in the FISA and in the investigation against the president.
00:13:56.840So now you've connected the money and the people and put the political party right in the middle of your opponent.
00:14:05.500So this is Cash Patel, as I said, years before becoming the director of the FBI.
00:14:10.500This is an issue that Cash has taken head on and has talked about since President Trump left office in 2020 and since President Trump took office in 2016, including that those few years gap.
00:14:24.120So the big news out today, Cash Patel has reportedly found a trove of sensitive documents related to the origins of the Russia collusion hoax.
00:14:35.040He says they were, quote, buried in multiple bags in a secret room inside the bureau.
00:14:42.440Now, the burn bag system is used to destroy documents designated as classified or higher.
00:14:58.420One of the documents the FBI officials found in that burn bag was a classified annex to former special counsel John Durham's final report, which includes the underlying intelligence he reviewed.
00:15:11.240Now, why did that come out the first time when John Durham put out his investigation?
00:15:15.560The declassification of the classified annex is being done in close coordinations between CIA director John Ratcliffe, Kash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard, along with Pam Bondi and acting national security director William Hartman.
00:15:32.340Now, as I just said, in 2023, special counsel John Durham released his final report, concluding that the FBI had no verified intel when it opened Crossfire Hurricane, the investigation, which they used to investigate President Trump in 2016.
00:15:48.060President Trump declassified that binder on January 19th of 2021, just a day before he left office.
00:15:54.300Now, he was given it was given it was given to John Solomon and those of you who join us on the show have heard John Solomon tell us the story about what happened to those documents.
00:16:05.080Solomon was given those documents, the Crossfire Hurricane documents.
00:16:09.320He was given them and was told that they are to be embargoed until the following day when President Trump left office.
00:16:16.860It's a common practice that is used inside, you know, government agencies.
00:16:21.620So Solomon started scanning those documents into his system so that when the embargo was lifted, he'd be able to get them out through his organization, just the news.
00:16:32.160He started scanning those documents, putting them into the system.
00:16:36.140And the FBI came to his office and asked for that binder back.
00:16:39.780But they promised that binder would be returned to him shortly thereafter.
00:16:45.260Now, Solomon was owed another binder and that one that they came and took.
00:16:49.920You could probably guess how this story and Solomon was never given back that binder, the initial one, and he was never given the second one that President Trump declassified.
00:17:00.700Now, it's unclear if these are the documents that have been found in these burn bags, but it's highly suspicious, number one, that these documents would still be sitting down in a room.
00:17:11.440Is someone trying to implicate somebody?
00:17:13.380Is someone from the Obama-Biden White House trying to implicate somebody?
00:17:18.600Or are they just trying to cover their rear ends?
00:17:20.800It's unclear, but these documents now are expected to start coming out next week, according to CIA Director John Radcliffe.
00:17:29.080So it's going to be interesting to see what the FBI was so worried about coming out, what they were so terrified about all of us finding out after Donald Trump left office.
00:17:39.080Now, at this point, President Trump hadn't been indicted 150 times.
00:17:44.780But I guess the Marxist Dems knew that Donald Trump was going to run again because he had just been stolen, had an election stolen from him, and he wasn't going to go out like that.
00:17:56.480So as I often say, Donald Trump is the only man who's won three elections, the only president who's won three elections.
00:18:03.000So John Solomon is now declaring that Barack Hussein Obama can be compelled to testify before a grand jury, and he cannot invoke the Fifth Amendment due to his presidential immunity.
00:18:14.560That's the immunity that the Supreme Court granted President Trump when he was going through those witch hunt cases that the Marxist Dems brought to him.
00:18:23.280If Obama lies as a private citizen about what he did during his presidency, that immunity evaporates, potentially exposing him to criminal prosecution.
00:18:33.380Once called before a grand jury, Obama must testify under oath.
00:18:37.000And if he misrepresents or lies under any matter related to his official conduct, as I said, he loses that immunity.
00:18:43.840The single moment as a private citizen could nullify the entire blanket he once relied upon and was very upset when President Trump was granted it.
00:18:53.940Take a listen to John Solomon this afternoon on Obama testifying.
00:18:59.280I know President Trump has every right to be frustrated with him.
00:19:02.340I think President Trump's analysis last week was right.
00:19:04.760I think my immunity rule might protect him on the original charges.
00:19:08.080That's what most legal experts tell me, that that ruling is so sweeping it will protect Obama for what he did in office.
00:19:13.320However, Barack Obama can now be summoned before a grand jury.
00:19:17.340He cannot take the Fifth Amendment because he has immunity from prosecution.
00:19:22.520If he lies as a private citizen about what he did as president, he'll no longer have that immunity.
00:19:28.560And that is a trap that Obama is sitting potentially facing.
00:19:31.980And I want to say the irony to that, because on January 5th, 2017, he presided over a meeting in the White House where the FBI had just cleared Mike Flynn of any wrongdoing.
00:19:41.540And they schemed in that meeting how they might be able to jam up Mike Flynn.
00:20:41.960So a few weeks ago, we got the Epstein video, the video that showed he didn't kill himself or rather he did kill himself.
00:20:50.680I'm so caught up here with remembering what we're supposed to believe and what we actually truly believe.
00:20:56.200So that video that came out a few weeks ago that was released by the Bureau of Prisons that showed that Epstein was in the cell by himself.
00:21:04.940He hung himself with his CPAP machine or his blankets or whatever he used to kill himself.
00:21:09.840There was one problem when that video was released showing his prison door.
00:21:15.880First of all, it wasn't even the prison door cell that he was in that they released looking at every schematic that we've ever been showed about Epstein and his whereabouts on the day he was killed, August 9th of 2019.
00:21:29.060So the FBI is now telling us that the Bureau of Prisons and the Department of Justice, Inspector Generals are in possession of a copy that now remember the infamous tape that was released.
00:21:45.440Pam Bondi came out and said the next day that it's like that in every single one since 1980 or 90 or whatever she said, that a minute is missing every single day and that one minute is missing.
00:22:00.540It turns out the video now exists with that minute that's not missing anymore.
00:23:45.620And what I do think is Nancy Pelosi should be investigated because what she has, the highest return of anybody practically in the history of Wall Street, save a few.
00:24:13.720And I just want to go over some of Pelosi's stock trades that we're all being kept in the dark about.
00:24:19.540So her 2023 performance, Nancy Pelosi's portfolio, managed, of course, by her husband, who's got some issues of his own, reportedly achieved a 65% return, nearly tripled the S&P 500, which was 23% for that year.
00:24:35.940This outperformed many hedge funds, with the largest U.S. hedge funds being Bridgewater Associates, losing 7.5% in comparison.
00:24:45.460Some of her notable trades in the last three years, Paul Pelosi purchased NVIDIA call options in November of 2021, with the reported gains of nearly $4 million by June of 2024.
00:25:02.260Paul Pelosi also bought Alphabet in June of 2021, 40 call options, 4,000 shares, $1,200 each, when the stock was trading at about $2,500, yielding about $5.3 million in profits.
00:25:16.660The list goes on and on and on on just why Nancy Pelosi, being as old as she is, still travels six hours a week, well, six hours each way, 12 hours a week, to go to work in Washington, D.C. for $174,000.
00:25:37.260So, just as Donald Trump was investigated for allegedly, well, not allegedly, he was investigated for paying back his loans on time and had a schedule with interest payments, but he was slapped on the wrist for that with a few hundred million dollar fine.
00:25:50.920Just as he was put through that, I think we need to find out how Nancy Pelosi is such a successful stock trader, or her husband, rather, and why he's not running Bridgewater or Renaissance.
00:26:04.680I mean, one of these massive hedge funds, he could be making tens of millions of dollars a year with whatever algorithmic trading he's using.
00:26:13.800We need to start seeing some indictments out of D.C.
00:26:16.780President Trump sat down with Miranda Devine of the New York Post while he was over in Scotland, and he talked about a question I think we all wonder, why Hillary Clinton was never prosecuted for the crimes she committed.
00:26:31.880Yeah, so, you know, we had Hillary Clinton down to whatever we wanted to do with her, and I felt it was inappropriate.
00:26:37.120She's the wife of a president who was a secretary of state, and we could have done a very big number.
00:26:42.640And I said, we don't want to be doing that.
00:26:45.820Let's, you know, put it into the country and not, the concept of putting her in jail, indicting her, all the things that you have to do, you know, it's tough stuff.
00:27:56.900I think I believe if Donald Trump had indicted Hillary Clinton on the various crimes that she committed, things would be a lot different for him and how they decided they wanted to politically persecute him, not prosecute for the crimes that he didn't actually commit.
00:28:12.300Some people want to see Donald Trump winning.
00:28:28.520Donald Trump helped get him reelected, lashing out at Donald Trump after President Trump called on him to ditch the little-known tradition that has allowed the Dems to stonewall President Trump's nominations.
00:28:42.300Take a listen to what Grassley had to say.
00:28:46.920Last night, I was surprised to see President Trump on true social go after me and Senate Republicans over what we call the blue slip.
00:28:58.620Now, the people in the real America, not here in this Washington, D.C., and islands surrounded by reality, the people in real America don't care about what the blue slip is.
00:29:14.240But, in fact, it impacts, in their states, the district judges who serve their communities and the U.S. attorneys who ensure the law and order is enforced.
00:29:27.060I was offended by what the president said, and I'm disappointed that it would result in personal insults.
00:29:38.320Now, we're here to do business that's a very important part of this committee's work, to do our constitutional duties of reviewing people that require Senate confirmation.
00:29:57.060If you can understand what Grassley said there, this is part of the issue with these career-long politicians.
00:30:05.980I mean, they go there when they're young, and they stay there until they die.
00:30:08.500Now, what President Trump was referring to, the Senate Judiciary Chair, who's Grassley, is not supposed to proceed with federal district-level judicial and prosecutorial nominees unless both senators in that state sign off on documents on the nominees with this thing called the blue slip.
00:30:27.220That means that Donald Trump, that means that Donald Trump can't get any district judges or attorneys approved in states like California, Nevada, New York, and Illinois unless they get both damn senators to sign off.
00:30:39.500They can't get them approved in states, one GOP senator like Pennsylvania or Wisconsin, unless a Democrat senator in those states also give them the green light.
00:30:48.260This is what we saw happen with Alina Habba.
00:30:52.140So now you're wondering what can happen here.
00:30:54.100So Grassley has the option to remove that blue slip and move forward with these people.
00:30:57.740But there's also another option, and it's one that President Trump personally asked Senate Majority Leader John Thune, who's supposed to be a Republican, who's supposed to be MAGA, that's what he tells us to do.
00:31:09.440President Trump posting on Truth Social the other day, quote,
00:31:12.480Hopefully the very talented John Thune, fresh off many victories over the past two weeks and indeed six months, will cancel August recess and long weekends in order to get my incredible nominees confirmed.
00:31:25.920So how it works is if John Thune were to go ahead and proceed with that by giving the senators recess, President Trump can do recess appointments where he'll be able to push these people through without these Marxist Dems who are trying to stonewall.
00:31:44.220But no, turns out John Thune is going to keep them there for a few days during the recess.
00:31:49.280So President Trump will not be able to get through his nominees.
00:31:59.840So for the people who get mad at me for going after Republicans on the show each and every day, you've got to ask yourself, what are these people doing for the party?
00:32:10.080President Trump has approximately 135 outstanding appointments remaining, and most are going to remain on standby until the Senate returns in September because he will not let them do the Senate recess appointments.
00:32:22.840So I ask you for one favor, and I don't ask you guys for much on the show.
00:32:29.840If you donate money to the Republicans, stop.
00:32:33.020Do not give another dollar to the RNC, the NRSC, any of these outfits, because this is how they're playing ball with President Trump.
00:32:44.020Every day on the show, back in November.
00:32:47.760And some of these Marxist stems just don't want to get on board with MAGA because they think that when Donald Trump's out of office in three and a half years, that MAGA's gone.
00:33:04.980Before we wrap up, I want to send a quick word of prayer to my good friend who I exchanged texts with today, Congressman Tim Burchett from the great state of Tennessee.
00:33:14.300It's reported that Congressman Burchett went to the hospital on Sunday with a broken rib after his horse kicked him in his chest.
00:33:21.060You often see Burchett posting videos with his donkeys and horses.
00:33:24.720Burchett assures me that he's great, and the show goes on.
00:33:27.940He said to me, that daggum horse, and I won't relay the rest of the message.
00:33:35.460But Burchett is doing great, and we want to send him our prayers that he's doing well.
00:33:40.720Folks, tomorrow we're going to be doing the show an hour later than usual.
