(00:13):
Take a look behind the curtain with a real whistle blower, an
American patriot. Prepare to embrace the
uncomfortable truth because thisprogram has no time for
comforting lies. Here is civil liberties
enthusiast, Second Amendment defender, and recovering FBI
agent Kyle Seraphin. Well, my friends, welcome to the

(00:41):
Kyle Seraphin show. Today is Tuesday.
It is October the 28th. It already feels like we are
late in the week because things have been moving quickly here.
You guys ever remember those, those 90 movies, the 90s movies?
It'd be like a guy like Rick Moranis.
I'm thinking of like Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, but there were
a million examples. For some reason, this was like a
90s movie trope. It was the bumbling,
intelligent, capable father. And he would, like, come into a

(01:04):
meeting 2 1/2 to 3 or 6 minutes late and everybody would be
checking their watch and they'd be drinking their coffee and
having stern faces. And he would come bumbling in
there. And he would have, like, these
boxes full of papers. There'd be like rolled up
scrolls in there. There'd be like some kind of a
model of an atom for some reason, even though it wasn't
particularly necessary for him to have an atom model, like a
little, you know, ball and stickmodel.

(01:25):
And he'd come rolling into thesethings a few minutes late and
he'd be super nerdy. And he'd even have a bow tie or
you have some awkward sort of, like, professorial jacket on.
And he would, like, spill stuff on the way into the door.
And then he would have this brilliant presentation, and
everybody in the audience is like, yes, yes, I get it.
That's how you're going to shrink the kids or whatever it
was. And then all the people in there

(01:46):
would be like, Boo, you're terrible.
I'm thinking of the movie Stargate as well, right?
The main character comes in and he's, like, trying to tell
everybody about the hieroglyphics and like, I think
the Egyptian civilization is older and it comes from the
aliens. I could read languages no one
else can. And everyone's like, Boo, you
suck. Then he's right at the end of
the movie. That's what I feel like 5

(02:12):
minutes late into my show and I'm James Spader.
And I'm just pointing out that the consistency is always here
on this program. I don't know why that's so funny
to me right now, but I'm James Spader and I'm Mick Rick Moranis
from the 90s trying to convince you that the Stargate or the

(02:33):
Honey I Shrunk the Kids thing isa real possibility.
We're dealing with an FBI director who straight up doesn't
understand optics despite being hired for his PR skills.
And so I'm bumbling into my show5 minutes late because I tried
to get my staff to do the work that I need them to do.
I was like go get the clips, go get the evidence, go grab me the

(02:56):
stories. And my staff is just like my 2
year old who's like daddy I'm stirring the eggs and I need a
kiss before you go upstairs. So our staff is underperforming.
My 8 year old would be the most capable but she's really busy
trying to catch dragonflies. So in the mean like in this
middle weird world that I live in, I'm furious at our

(03:21):
government. I'm furious at our money because
I'm a conservative guy who doesn't want to see big
government. I'm furious that we're watching
this Trump administration come in promise So big come out of
the gate hard charging inauguration day.
The dude is signing executive orders on the stage.
He was crushing it and we're like, yes, this is what we

(03:43):
wanted. I felt so good about how it was
going to go. I watched a pardon come out for
J Sixers. I saw failures happen almost
immediately and from the beginning, really early on, I
gave space. I recognized a pattern.

(04:04):
I saw dangerous and pretty like wrong leaning indications and
then I started calling them out and that immediately made me PNG
D to the so-called movement people.
They're like, how come you're not giving them time to act?
I don't need time to act. I worked in a world in emergency

(04:25):
medicine where when you recognize the sign that
somebody's about to swirl the drain, if you don't act, they
die. I came from a place where
imminency is the expectation. When you see something you do
something about it. You don't have to wonder like oh
is that an arterial or a venous bleed?
Like should I put a tourniquet on or should I just wait and
wonder and see if the person bleeds out in front of me?

(04:48):
I've had guys come into my ER room when I was working as a
paramedic that had managed to rupture a fistula.
It's a port that you can access for medications and the guy took
away his towel and sent a four foot spurting of blood across
the room and he needed immediatevascular surgery or he was going

(05:09):
to bleed out on the floor. And he's like holding it on with
whatever pressure he's got. He also looked like the most
interesting man in the world, which is kind of interesting.
And he's like my friend, I thinkI am bleeding very heavily and
I'm like, dude, you're going to die.
We need to put a tourniquet on that.
This is going to hurt. I came from a world where
imminence, quick reactions and pattern recognition is the
requirement. It's the same thing in law
enforcement. I didn't find myself in a lot of

(05:31):
deadly force scenarios. That's a fact.
I just did. Not that I've drawn down on
people before and you have a split second to decide, do I
pull the trigger right now? Do I take the slack out of this
pistol and take this person's life and deal with whatever
comes after that because they are in imminent danger of death
or serious physical injury to me?
Or do I let it ride for just a little bit longer?
And those reactions are things that I've honed over, let's call

(05:55):
it 25 years of being an adult, something like that, right?
Since I was 18. That's about 25 years.
I make quick decisions and it was the very obvious to me very
early on that even though I comeacross being the bumbling guy
who comes in 4 minutes late because I'm running my own show

(06:16):
here, the snap decision that I made is correct.
And at the end of the day, I think what you will see, this is
just an expectation that I have if, if there is any justice or
if there's any, if there's any trend pattern at all, is that in
the same way that the suspendables, my friends, who by
the way, that term is a joke, wecame up with that as a joke

(06:37):
because we called out Chris Ray,the previous FBI director who
was appointed by Trump. By the way, just like so many
other bad picks that Donald Trump has had, particularly at
the DOJ, his FBI and DOJ picks have been awful for the entire
time that he's been there. I don't think he understands
what these these animals are. And here I was hoping that the
man got it because we're sittinghere putting our lives on the

(07:00):
line, sharing this information to the point where I took my
life from being quiet, reserved out of the public eye, no social
media in my life, no interest insocial media whatsoever to the
point where now it takes up a ton of my time.
And I and I wanted to do this thing where it was like just I

(07:20):
just live in never and nobody knows I'm there.
My goal was to be a good dad andto be a husband that made sure
that my wife was never worried about whether or not we were
going to be able to survive. That was my goal.
And now I've created a weapon system.
So for those of you who listen to this podcast, if you don't
realize it, you are the weapon. I think Alex Jones always says

(07:41):
things like you are the Paul Revere's.
I don't feel that way. You are my weapon system, and
the weapon that we bring is awareness and discernment and
analysis. I will give you information and
you will also know from the analysis that you can make in
your own life with your own experience that this information
is accurate because it's been checked.

(08:02):
And then add to it that it is. It is relevant because you have
experience that says it is. One of the first podcasts I did
in 2023 was an art an episode entitled Politically Appointed
Princess. That's my term.
Politically Appointed Princess are people that live like

(08:24):
royalty on our dollars, even though they haven't earned
royalty. They weren't born into a family
of royalty. In America, we don't have
royalty. At least we try not to.
And they weren't even born into generational wealth, but they
get to live that way. And when you live like that, I
think, I don't know because I'venever lived like that.
But if I, if I did, I can imagine the danger would be that

(08:44):
you start looking around and thinking, I am entitled to this
thing. It's not something that I use.
I never thought that my government vehicle was my car.
So whenever they took the the government vehicle, they're
like, they took your car. It's like, well, it was never
mine. Just give me an old minivan.
I just need to be able to have four wheels that take me places.
When you start looking around and you see the interior of one

(09:08):
of these jets and you're like leather seats, fresh flowers, a
snow cone machine in flight, movie me yucking it up with my
buddies in a box of booze on theway to Las Vegas.
That's that's what I deserve. I had to go through so much to
get here. I had to answer questions about
my life in front of a Senate panel and now I deserve this 60

(09:31):
+ 1,000,000 dollar aircraft. That's for me.
I need pilots at my beck and call.
I expect that 30 men will spend their life dedicated to making
sure that I'm safe. And when I decide to go on a
vacation with my girlfriend, if I want to go up and watch her
sing the national anthem on the taxpayers dollar, then I got to
put up 30 guys in 30 hotel roomsbecause we booked out all of the

(09:55):
security details, hotels plus myown.
I need to live like a king. Like a politically appointed
Prince. Maybe the son of the king.
If Donald Trump is the MAGA king, then the politically
appointed people underneath him live like they are the sons of
the king. And that is sense of entitlement
is real and it can be witnessed.And some of us can see this from

(10:18):
a long ways out and it'd be really interesting.
The weapon system that you guys constitute is when we talk here,
we don't have the biggest audience in America, not even
close. But people who do are listening
to us. Yesterday, Will Kane on Fox News
made the same comparison that I made about Alexandria Ocasio
Cortez in her little her little cheering whoop for from Amdani

(10:41):
in New York City. And he immediately went into a
2004 clip of Howard Dean that I also played.
Now, maybe he just heard it and was like, oh, yeah, that's what
that sounds like. Maybe his producers are really
tuned into 2004 politics and they can never forget that
sound. Or maybe somebody is watching
this show for content and not giving credit.

(11:04):
And I don't know what the answeris, but I have a hunch because
the odds that you dig into the into the archives and pull out
of 2004 Howard Dean failed presidential candidate from the
time when I was just paying attention to politics, probably
not that common. Probably not that likely for the
producers that are over at Fox News, who by the way, are in
their 20s. That's just my guess.

(11:24):
It's just my guess. I'm not even sure they were born
when that clip came out. So when I share things here, I
am using this like a cudgel. I use my social media in the
same way. The only thing I care about is
hacking at government lies and hacking at government waste that
we all have to fund. And that's why we're going to go
put a FOIA in and try to figure out what Erica Knight is getting

(11:46):
paid. We right now have a woman who
reportedly by some sources I have and I'm going to get real
details on this. So this is just speculation at
the moment. The the number sounds like 3 to
$500,000 a year that our FBI is paying for a personal
spokesperson for the FBI director when they have an
entire office called the Office of Public Affairs that does
spokesperson stuff for the FBI director.

(12:06):
It's literally to Polish his image as much as cash Patel sits
in his time and spends every single waking minute that he's
on Fox News doing knob slobbery trademark.
Whenever he does the knob slobbery that you guys keep
seeing professionally, he also has his own knob slobber who
polishes him up professionally to the tune of maybe as much as
a half million dollars. And we're not going to let this

(12:27):
stuff go because it's our money.We get to say we should be
upset. And it's even more obvious to me
in the middle of a government shutdown where people are going
without their paycheck. No tears from me on that.
But if you're going to live likea millionaire and jet set around
the country while other people are going without their
paycheck. And by the way, you're flying a
private jet, which means air traffic control, who's not

(12:48):
getting paid, is moving your aircraft through the pile and
putting you down at a private airfield so that you can watch
your girlfriend sing the national anthem.
When apparently all she knows how to do is sing the national
anthem. Because I've rarely sing or sing
anything other than that. And Lee Greenwood, proud to be
an American, which came out before she was born.
Is it not weird to see all this stuff?
Yes, we're in day 28 of a government shutdown, and yes,

(13:10):
the Republicans are trying to brand it like it's the
Democrats. How's that going to go over when
they're politically appointed? Princess are flying around like
it's New Year's Eve on 1999 and living it up to the best of
their their ability before the whole thing falls down.
We're not even paying the aircraft maintenance technicians
at the FBI and yet the guys taking the jet out for spins to

(13:32):
go fly out and do things up in in PA for some sporting event
called Real American Freestyle which is like AUFC knock off
'cause he just loves to go to fight scenes.
It also turns out that his girlfriend has been at multiple
RAF events singing the national anthem.
Turns out it'd be hard for you to argue that you have lost
money, $5,000,000 worth of moneyfrom Kyle Serafin because of

(13:54):
defamation when you're still getting contracts and nobody's
canceling you to come sing the national anthem.
And that seemed kind of weird. So you are my weapon system.
I am apparently James Spader or Rick Moranis who turned out to
be the hero in the end. Maybe.
I'm not saying I'm the hero in the end, I'm just saying in the
90s movie, come in bumbling. That's what I'm bringing for you
today. And we're going to bring some
clips and some information. And when I knew this was going

(14:17):
wrong and politically appointed Princess is going to be the
topic today. Again, I haven't done a show
exclusively on it since 2023 andI think it's time.
I think it is. I hope you guys appreciate where
we're coming from and if this isnot your cup of tea and you guys
don't want insider baseball on this kind of thing and why it's
so obvious and have the facts and the and the and the details

(14:38):
behind it. If you don't want to have the
clips of people asking the questions and you don't like
that outrage, that's totally good.
Last night I spent the evening watching 50 to 80 dragonflies
fly around the pond behind my house and catch mosquitoes with
my kids and it was epic. So that's also really good.
And you guys can go do those kind of things too.
And I think that's also really important.
So sometimes we've got to be a little bit outraged.
We also have to enjoy the life that's out there.

(14:59):
And I am doing so. I'm not.
I don't wake up with like a rageboner to go after these people.
And yet this is my weapon platform.
And you guys are all a part of it.
And I'm so appreciative that I have it, that you guys have come
here, given me your attention span and allowed me to share
information with you that may ormay not outrage you, but we are
making real change. How do you know how it's real

(15:20):
change? Because people in the White
House, hosts at Fox News are hearing what we're saying.
And I got it from a little bird that there are people who are at
the the ear of Donald Trump who saw what I've been putting out
about this particular topic. And they understand that the
optics of flying around like you're some billionaire in a

(15:42):
private jet funded by the American taxpayer when literally
10s of millions of American workers who work for the federal
government in good faith. We don't have to love them.
We don't have to think they're essential.
But some of them do show up to work and do essential jobs and
they're not getting paid. And then big boy Cash Patel
says, cash me in the jet and I'mgoing to fly out there and bring
me the the vanilla snow cone. I'd like to.

(16:04):
I'd like the the Pina colada on top of this one, please.
That that is not a good look. That's not how you brand a
Schumer shutdown. I think Republicans should own
the shutdown. But if they're not going to do
it, man, they better get their boy in check.
I'm going to show you that even Pam Bondi, who's not our
favorite, she's OK. She does some things good.

(16:25):
She does some things badly. She hired Harmony Dylan.
Harmony seems on ball on the point.
She's got to Ed Martin and Martin seems capable.
Pam Bondi, she's kind of, she's kind of got that swampy feel.
She's a Floridian lady. She's not for me, but I'm not
mad at her in the same way I am about the guy that stood and
lied to my face that told me things that were not true.

(16:46):
Steve Friend has not gotten backpay yet.
Gerardo Boyle has not gotten back pay yet.
That was announced in August. We are now at the end of
October, months and months of this, and this liar hasn't been
able to make good on it. And he went real public with it.
In the same way he went public with saying we caught the guy
with Charlie Kirk. Oops.
It wasn't that guy. How do we know it wasn't that

(17:07):
guy? My friend was interviewing the
guy they thought they caught, was interviewing the subject
that Cash Patel announced triumphantly to the world, only
to go backpedal. And they yelled at my friend for
not pinning something on a guy who didn't do the crime.
You know how crazy that is? Because we're going to cover
Tyler Robinson today too. And you guys are like, wait,
where's Andrew Bailey? He's conspicuously quiet.

(17:28):
You know what a good FBI director would do?
Shut his freaking mouth, not sayanything, and let his work speak
for him. The thing that Dan Bongino keeps
talking about. Oh, our work will speak for
ourselves. Trust me, bro.
You don't have to trust me, bro.This is a show me business.
But also trust me, bro, isn't it?
Isn't it Dan Bongino that was famous for saying that political
campaigns and politics in general is all about snap bite

(17:50):
snapshots and sound bites? Isn't that what it is?
Snapshots and sound bites. Here's a great snapshot.
I wonder what the sound bite is.It sounds like a roaring crowd.
This is a great snapshot of whatcompletely out of touch pseudo
aristocratic American governmentbehavior looks like.

(18:13):
Here's my me and my girlfriend who's 20 years younger than me.
We're out partying because that's what we do.
I flew on a multimillion dollar government jet at $10,000 an
hour minimum operating cost to go up and do this.
And by the way, then I turned around and I flew back home.
No, I didn't. I flew to her home in Nashville.
You notice who's on the screen right there.

(18:34):
I didn't realize this the other day.
The real Toria Brooke, the same woman who cut the piece out of
the laws, out of the the podcastthat turned into a lawsuit.
There's her buddy, there's Alexis Wilkins, buddy who
promoted a piece of my podcast 10X higher than it ever was.
And then she turned around and sued me for $5,000,000.

(18:56):
She doesn't seem like she's hurting.
She doesn't seem like there's actual damages when she's still
getting asked to sing the national anthem in front of that
stadium full of people. All right, is that a good warm
up yet? How about my friends over at
Saud? You guys want to not be tracked.
You want your phone not to be tracked the way I tracked the
government's jet. Face it, your phone is a
tracking device. That's what it does.
That's why mine sits in here. I try to at least disable it

(19:18):
while I'm at dinner, and I disable it while we're doing the
podcast. Government agencies, big tech,
corporate data broker, cybercriminals, take your pick.
Every single one of these clowns, they all want a piece of
your digital footprint, and theydon't have to ask.
Your terms of service gives it to them unless they cannot find
where you're at. That's why silent
existsslnt.com/kyle, slnt.com/kyle.

(19:39):
That's the website Silent. They make Faraday products.
They actually work. I've tested them.
I've put the my phone in a Faraday bag and made calls from
another phone that was in the car and bounced it off angles
and gone up and down hills for hundreds of miles of driving to
try and see, hey, will it penetrate?
Will it make the noise and let me know that something got
through? Nope.
Cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPSRFID, near field
communications, all of them blocked.

(20:01):
No signal means no tracking. There's no remote access.
There's no bread crumbs. People can't find out where you
fund because of the the way thatyou've pinged off.
Some Wi-Fi routers, their bags are fantastic.
You guys are seeing on the screen the everyday E3 Faraday
backpack. I have mine set up for Riot
Patrol. Whenever we start having riots
because of Snap, I'm going to goout there and carry my Faraday
backpack and I'm going to have ahidden phone in there that I

(20:21):
might be able to need. I may have to go into that bag
and pulled out and get going. If we need like an E&E plan,
it'll be holding on to my routes.
It also helps protect your battery.
You guys can protect your family, your freedom, your
digital footprint. Drop your phone in a Faraday
sleeve from silentslnt.com slashKyle.
Check them out. You will not be sad.
They make good products. They don't have the cheapest

(20:42):
stuff. They just have the things that
work. All right, we've already
started, but let's get into it for real.
Here we go. So I alluded to this story
because it's still relevant. There are still people out there
that are quote UN quote working the Charlie Kirk assassination

(21:04):
case investigation on their own without any information.
I participated in a in an X space, A Twitter space last
night that had about 800 people sitting in there where we were
arguing with some prominent, I don't know what they are,
citizen type journalists or people that are independent
journalists that are on X and they're out there trying to
solve the mystery of what happened and find out who really

(21:26):
done it without any information.I'm going to give you more
evidence today that you don't have the ability, you don't have
the opportunity. It's not available to you.
There is not enough information in the public sphere for you to
conduct an, an investigation into this.
My buddy Ryan Madda, we love Ryan.

(21:46):
Ryan's like my, my buddy who comes up and says things to me
that I don't agree with, but it doesn't mean I think he's a bad
guy, right? He's one of those people that I
can agree to disagree with. We had this in my lifetime.
Some of you knew that it'd be like, hey, I really like the I
really like Barack Obama and you're like, no, John McCain's
the best. He's awesome.
He's so great. He was another one of those guys

(22:07):
that I really didn't like because of the way that he
carried himself. You could have that fight, and
then you'd be like, let's go andget a beer, Let's go bowling,
Let's go shoot arrows, Let's go do archery, Let's go deer
hunting. I don't know, like, regular
things. People used to disagree about
politics because it wasn't the most important thing.
And then you could go, yeah, butthat's not my entire identity.
Like, that's just a thing that Ithink you don't think it too

(22:27):
weird. We don't have the same thoughts.
Moving on. Thank God we're not married.
Right. Charlie Kirk's suspested
assassin is not showing his facein court, and they postpone the
actual probable cause hearing. And that's relevant because what
it says is that the the defense for this case does not have
enough time thus far to evaluateall of the information that has

(22:51):
been put out in the public. You can see why this would be
aligned with what goes on because our FBI injected itself
inappropriately into this case. And the longer that they let it
cool off, the actual more likelihood is that you're going
to have a fair trial. That's my take on it.
I think that's really, I think it's necessary because for us to
have justice in this country, weneed to have an impartial jury

(23:13):
that walks in with an open mind.Now, I will also tell you that
for those of you that think the assassination of Charlie Kirk
was like a Seminole moment for everybody in this country, I'm
going to just tell you straight up, it wasn't.
A lot of people didn't know who he was.
They may have heard that he was killed, but they didn't know who
he was before that. And so then they got whatever
the left or the right wing mediawas saying.
He's a hero, he's a Great American.
He was a patriot, he's a martyr.And then the other side was

(23:36):
like, he's a bigot. He's an A hole.
He was a bad person. At the end of the day, I'm
nuanced. I don't think that I would have
gotten along with Charlie Kirk. The things that he liked were
not the things that I like. The way that he lived was not
the way that I lived. So we probably wouldn't have
been buddies. But I also can recognize a
father in his 30s being taken away from his children and that
being the most unjust thing. And therefore there should be a

(23:58):
free, fair, a reasonable trial with evidence.
We should have a really good defense that goes out there.
It's going to be state funded, but so be it.
There should be an aggressive prosecution.
There should be no tainting of it by our federal law
enforcement who was poking theirheads into it for what clout?
You had people like Bongino, thedeputy director of the FBI.
You had Cash Patel, the directorof the FBI, go out and claim

(24:20):
that they did the investigationspersonally in a huge way.
They took massive credit for something.
They're not even bringing federal charges.
The DOJ has not brought charges in this case yet.
They've hinted they might, but they didn't.
So what you had was, is a massive conflict of interest.
It's another one of these foot in mouth stupidity moves that I
do not understand. And if Donald Trump was the guy

(24:41):
that we think he is, if Donald Trump was the the Donald Trump
from The Apprentice, he would goout there and say you're fired
to a number of people in this administration.
Don't you think, wouldn't he nottolerate this kind of weakness,
this kind of stupidity, this kind of potential compromise?

(25:04):
If you're going to screw up the case of a guy who was a friend
of the of the president, a serious young political
influencer, a big up and coming name.
If you're going to go out there and screw that up because of
your own hubris and you're goingto talk about Valhalla, you're
going to announce that you have the guy in custody when you
don't, How many screw ups do youget in Donald Trump's world is

(25:26):
my question. That's a real serious question.
That's a question for Susie Wiles.
How many times do these people need to embarrass you and your
administration? How many times do they need to
paint you in a light that you donot want to be seen in?
Do you want to be seen as the out of touch billionaire class
that flies around on private jets while Americans are about
to lose SNAP benefits? I've watched people on the right

(25:47):
claim that they're going to go get SNAP benefits for their
people because we love pork. Even though we're Republicans
and we supposed to believe in small government and we
theoretically believe in the constitutional principles.
James Madison said it no legislative duty for charity.
That doesn't mean that there's no place for charity.
It just means the government shouldn't do it.
I actually had a YouTube commentthat said, how do you know this
is just you ranting about it. It's like, no, the concept of

(26:10):
Christian charity, it's one of the theological virtues.
It's been well studied for literally centuries.
It just doesn't have any place in government.
You don't mandate it in government.
That's that's really simple stuff.
It's not charity. If you make me do it, If you
take money from my pocket and redistribute it, that's
socialism. I thought Republicans were

(26:32):
against that. I thought they were out there
rallying against Mondami. I thought they were really
worried that they were going to get a socialist or a communist
mayor of New York City. You know what also is not good
luck. Forget taking money from my
pocket and giving it to poor people where I can at least go.
They're poor. Some of them are not.

(26:52):
Everybody who's on Snap is scamming at A lot of people are
in real need. And they're the same reason why
we give money to our churches and we try to do private
charity. And we want to go put something
in the collection basket to helpthose who are less fortunate.
And they don't have to look us in the eye and feel bad about
it. Why we might go and take care of
one of our neighbors when we have an opportunity Because it's
like, look, I understand that times are hard.

(27:12):
Sometimes God gives us more thanwe need.
Sometimes we need more than God gives us.
That's why we are all part of a community.
That's what holds us together. That's the glue.
My buddy went through a an introto anthropology class in 2000,
in the year 2000 going way back,you know, like just before
Howard Dean and he said, do you know what is the glue that holds
society and communities together?

(27:34):
It's reciprocity. It's that I give to you and then
you feel inclined to give to me as well.
It binds us together. If you want to go out there and
make a friend, go ask a favor. This is famous old advice for
leadership. It's famous advice for
management. If you want to make a friend,
you ask a favor. Go offer something to someone.
You want to put somebody in a weird spot?

(27:55):
My wife and I were at a pizza place the other night.
Waitress comes by. Would you guys like a pizza?
We made one too many. We don't need it.
Would you like a pizza? And we're like, oh, I don't know
if if we're like, are we the people that should be receiving
the extra pizza? There's just these little tiny
people. We ordered enough food.
We know what our order is. And she's like, it's a pizza.
It won't cost you anything. Would you like this free pizza

(28:16):
that we made? And she kept trying to sell the
free pizza, and she was having ahard time because me and my wife
are like, ah, don't give us something we didn't ask for.
It's a classic version of if she'd come up there and said,
hey, could you do me a favor? Would you mind picking this
thing up and carrying it across the restaurant for us?
I'm up in a heartbeat. And so are you men, maybe women?

(28:39):
Hey, we're having a real struggle back there.
Is there a possibility that you could do this thing on our
behalf? Could you move your truck around
the corner? We need to park a van there and
do a delivery. Oh, yeah, no problem.
I'll move my vehicle. You asked me a favor.
Reciprocity binds us together. I'm just saying not mandating

(28:59):
charity is a really good move. But you know what's not charity?
Taking my money and putting it into the fuel tank of a private
jet that looks like this. If you're going to put my money
and your money, all of our moneyinto these plush leather seats
and fill up the snow cone machine and you're going to fly

(29:20):
a 60 + 1,000,000 dollar aircraftwith multiple pilots who make
160, five, $175,000 a year. I feel like I saw advertisements
internally at the FBI for flightattendants.
I think they actually have flight attendants for the
director's plane. They may have done away with
this, but when Chris Ray was wasin and I was actually working in

(29:41):
the Washington field office, I used to look at the job board to
see who we hiring, where were they going, what kind of money
were we spending? What was the American taxpayer,
you know, doing with this FBII think they have flight
attendants on these private jets.
I'm almost positive I can't findit on the website anymore.
Maybe they don't have any openings.
That's a Gulfstream 550. You guys can look it up.

(30:02):
The operating cost, if you wanted to charter this would be
north of $10,000 an hour, not toinclude things like runways.
This is thousands of dollars an hour for fuel.
And then don't worry about the pilots and the maintenance and
the wear and tear and the wheelsand all the other things that go
along with it. And none of those people are
getting paid right now. It's a really nice looking jet.

(30:22):
Meanwhile, the one thing they'resupposed to be doing, not jet
setting around, they're supposedto be like, you know, just
solving crimes. They're supposed to be stopping
bad guys. What are they mostly doing?
They're doing the ICE mission people.
They're doing the ICE mission. They're going after illegal
aliens. They're not doing the force and
fraud. They're not doing nearly as much
of the national security mission.

(30:43):
We already know that. That's what you learned from
watching this podcast. You found out that the FBI
primarily disrupts terrorist plots that it creates.
That's problematic. That's not a left or a right
issue. That's not partisan.
That's not Republican or Democrat.
Doesn't matter who's in charge. They've been doing it since the
beginning. They went after communists in
the 19 teens in the Palmer Raids.

(31:04):
This is a big black eye before they even became the FBI.
They went after people during the red scare.
They went after Japanese during the Interment in World War 2.
The FBI went after civil rights leaders.
They tried to get Martin Luther King Junior to kill himself.
They went after people in the so-called patriot or militia
movement in the 90s in Pat Con. The sins of the FBI are

(31:25):
significantly more numerous. And one of the craziest things
is from the beginning I said Cash Patel had the potential
keyword here being potential to be the most loved FBI director
in FBI history. He could be the thing that Jim
Comedy pretended to be and he chose instead to be a buffoon, a
knob slobbing clown show who does this kind of stuff and has

(31:48):
his girlfriend who's half his age posting things about holding
this title belt and selfies at aan event that most of us can't
afford to go to right now because all of us are looking at
our belts and going. We've got to tighten things up.
The tariffs are still going. The inflation is still high.
The real estate costs are incredible.
This country is not inexpensive to live in.

(32:08):
And some of us don't know how the other half live.
And it's not the other half really.
It's really like 1/2 percent, isn't it?
A lot of us don't know what the other half percent live like.
It must be nice to fly around and sing the national anthem
professionally. That sounds like a pretty good
gig. I don't want to burden you guys
with the sound of that national anthem, but it's been other,
it's been other than impressive to me.

(32:30):
So here's the actual work it's supposed to do.
Law enforcement assist, stop a high profile killer from getting
away with murder. That'd be good.
Tyler Robinson, 22, charged withaggravated murder state case in
Utah, right? You guys know that the big story
from ABC and from Fox yesterday was that he's allowed to wear
civilian clothes during his pretrial hearing.
Do you guys realize that they haven't even evaluated whether

(32:52):
the probable cause to believe that he committed that crime has
in fact been substantiated in Utah?
He was charged under what's called an information.
There's two ways you can basically do a charging
document. One of them is information.
The other one is indictment. Indictment means grand jury.
You go in front of a bunch of people, you explain what your
case is. The grand jury says there is
probable cause, which means it'smore likely than not to believe

(33:13):
that the person committed the crime, that the crime was
committed, and that this person is the one who did it.
That's what an indictment does. In the case of what's going on
in Utah right now, they can do what's called an information.
They wrote up the probable causestatement and it's supposed to
be evaluated in a preliminary hearing and it hasn't happened
yet. It still has not happened.
It has been booted down the road.
They still haven't decided whether or not they, even the

(33:34):
court has not decided whether ornot they've even arrested the
right guy for this. All right.
I just want you to know that these things are ongoing and
we're not going to probably findout whether this guy has been
presented with all the evidence and convicted by a jury of his
peers probably for a couple years.
And that's probably good becausethe people that injected
themselves into this investigation politically,

(33:56):
that's going to be the governor of Utah who many of you guys
have problems with because of the way that he represents the
Republican Party. I think he's a perfect
Republican, kind of squishy on both sides.
He actually did pretty good leadership during this this
situation. The FBI director saying this, my
friend, we're going to Valhalla together, bro.
I got the watch. That guy walked the crime scene

(34:16):
along with Dan Bongino, the deputy director, for no
particular reason. I had a deputy one time join me
on a on a plane. I flew out to Portland.
We went to Portland to go investigate Antifa.
Does that sound familiar? We're doing that again today.
Apparently they've already got all the cases squared away in
Portland. Why they're not charging under
Rico, I have no idea, but it's pretty darn clear.

(34:39):
I flew out to Portland and on myway home from Portland in
either. Probably like beginning of
October of 2020. It might have been the end of
September. I flew with Deputy Director
David Bowdich. He was the DD at the time.
Most of you will never know his name unless you listen to this
podcast. You heard me reference him
before. And he's an imposing tall man.
He's broad shouldered. He's what you think an FBI agent

(35:01):
looks like, square jaw. You know, he was wearing a mask
because it was 2020. His mask had a like an American
flag and AG man, or maybe it wasa black mask with a white G man,
like the silhouette of a guy with a Tommy gun and a coat and
a hat. And he got on the plane and he
flew like everybody else. I don't know if he was in coach
or business. He had a small little entourage.
There were two other agents withhim called special assistants.

(35:23):
That was it. He flew commercial like a
regular person, the way that I would, the way that you would.
I flew behind him. I watched him on a couple
different legs of this. He flew like a regular person
because he wasn't a politically appointed Prince.
Meanwhile, the new guys are out there and they want to go out
and get new jets. We've covered this story here.

(35:47):
What's amazing is, is that I covered the story and I'm fairly
confident that nobody else was talking about at the time.
Because this story that you're seeing on the screen, it comes
well after the podcast we did about it.
This is from Who Is this the Times?
Yeah, this is from the Sorry, The Independent, the Independent
and UK. The FBI is seeking an ultra long

(36:07):
range business jet to fly agentsand other Bureau personnel to
far-flung global locations for counterterrorism response, high
risk operations, sensitive missions and also for executive
travel. They went out after I covered
this thing and they got the federal procurement documents
the same way that I showed you over on X.
If you guys follow me there. OK.
Exclusive Trump admin seeks new jet to shuttle attorney general

(36:30):
Pam Bondi and FBI Director Cash Patel.
They got asked questions about it folks.
They did. They were like, hey, are you
guys getting a new jet? This was the follow up headline.
Exclusive Pam Bondi says she doesn't want a new jet after the
independent exposes FBI plan fornew airplane to shuttle her
around. I told you that this podcast is
my weapon system. What it does is it vaults ideas,

(36:52):
concepts, knowledge that I have from talking to people inside
the FBI specifically, but also the federal government large
because people reach out to me and I share it here to you.
And because there are enough of the the people who need to hear
it that are also listening to this show.
They take it to the places whereit actually does affect.
We're not going to have an audience the size of Tucker

(37:15):
Carlson. We won't have the an audience
the size of Alex Jones. I don't say salacious enough
things. I don't I don't break an
exclusive everything that I say.That's just not how I do it.
I'm not a hype guy. I don't do excitement in that
way. But what I do have is the
ability to assess information, know what's important, cut
through, find things that shouldreally matter to people, and

(37:37):
also make the human connection because I'm a regular person,
just like you, I am. Some of these people pretend to
be regular people and they're worth hundreds of millions of
dollars. Maybe they just make a couple of
$1,000,000 a year, just a light couple of million.
What's that between a couple of friends, right?
I don't make millions of dollarsa year and I don't mind.
I have an awesome life. My life is actually quite good.
Get to see my kids every morning.

(37:58):
I got kisses from my 2 year old while she was mixing the eggs
and they were, you know, slinging out breakfast biscuits,
right? That's a pretty good life.
We're very blessed here, no question.
And I also have the ability to talk to a few of you and some of
you that are listening that are in this audience right now.
You know the problem that we arepresenting.

(38:21):
Cash Patel gave in the same way that Pam Bondi knew this was a
bad optic. I'm going to go ahead and say no
to this plane. Pam Bondi has better political
instincts than Cash Patel. But Patel said I'm going to take
a multi $1,000,000 aircraft out for a spin during the middle of
a government shutdown. No matter how it looks, no
matter how the White House triesto brand that this is a Schumer

(38:43):
shutdown, that the Democrats screwed this up.
He tried to he, they tried to make this one thing.
They just want to hang the shutdown on Democrats and they
gave Democrats the easiest weapon to say, do you know how
little these people care about you and your lack of money and
your SNAP benefits going away? They don't care about you.

(39:07):
That's why they're still jet setting around and living like
billionaires. And some of you who are
listening right now and you knowexactly who you are, some of you
know that this is a problem. This guy is your Achilles heel.
He is a weak spot for you. And he can't help himself
because he's proud, He's arrogant.
He's full of hubris. And pride comes before that

(39:27):
fall. We're in the fall right now.
It'd be a great time to get rid of this dude.
Why don't you put someone serious in and start the work of
reclaiming federal law enforcement so they can get back
to doing serious work instead ofhearing tag lines, knob slobbery
and let good cops be cops when FBI agents are not cops and most
of them never will be cops neverwere cops, and they actually

(39:47):
have a little bit of disdain forcops, which is the problem with
the FBI and has been for a while.
This guy claimed that he knew the problem.
He also presided over the graduation of a brand new crop
of Chris Ray's Intel analyst that were hired, selected,
vetted, screened, and then trained under him but came from

(40:08):
Chris Ray's pipeline. You guys know this.
Imagine that you were ACEO of a company and you need to do a big
change and you're going to cut 5000 people out of the workforce
and we're going to make it what we want.
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop. And then you turn around and you
take the hiring pipeline. Pipeline is the number of people
that feed into your to your human resource department,
right? You take the pipeline from the

(40:29):
previous guy selected to the previous criteria.
And then you put them in there and you act like you're going to
get change. You're the same person.
You are the problem. And that's why Cash Patel has
the same problem with the jet that every previous FBI director
had as well. There were scandals that
actually removed Bill Sessions under Clinton.
Mueller had his own questions about misuse of the FBI jet.

(40:51):
They weren't so brazen back then.
Comedy got called out for his use of the FBI jet.
You could find the news stories.They're ubiquitous.
And then we had Ray and I was part of that.
And I went and I'm going to showyou some some stuff where they
brought it up, where my words are spoken by US senators in the
middle of hearings because of emails and letters and articles
that I helped contribute. This weapon system makes it into
the ears of certain people that are in the halls of power in

(41:14):
Washington DC. And then lastly, we have this
dim, dim bulb who said that there was a problem.
We're going to shut down the Hoover building.
And then he went and he told us that unlike Donald Trump, who
day one is signing orders and eliminating DEI and all this
other stuff, this clown show is doing exactly what the previous
guy did. And we have ample evidence.
We don't need to be proven any further then we need to.

(41:34):
Decrease what I call government creep with personnel.
The FB is footprint has gotten so freaking big.
And then the biggest problem theFBI has had has come out of its
Intel shops. I'd break that component out of
it. I'd shut down the FBI Hoover
building on day one and reopening the next day as a

(41:54):
Museum of the Deep State. And I take the 7000 employees
that work in that building and send them across America to
chase down criminals. Go be cops, you're cops, go be
cops. Go chase down murders and
rapists and drug dealers and violent offenders.
What do you need 7000 people there for?
Same thing with DOJ. What are all these people doing
here? Looking for their next

(42:15):
government promotion, looking for their next fancy government
title, looking for their parachute out of government.
So while you're bringing in the right people, you also have to
shrink government. So.
Excuse me, I just have to sniff dramatically for no particular
reason. Again, same damn guy, right?
We thought that he understood it.
That that sounds like the right answer.
This is the answer that I've been yelling from.

(42:36):
I felt really good about it. You guys want to know when I
turned, I'm going to show you. This is when I knew for sure
that I was correct. But I'm going to show you the
first inkling that we knew, and it was day freaking one.
Here's how I was confirmed. So what are your?
Colleagues saying about this that you're going to get out of
the Hoover Building, we need a new.
Headquarters. Very, very badly.
New headquarters. Proposal that we have this FBI.

(42:58):
Is leaving the Hoover building, Force gave.
Up a big nugget we want. For about.
About a decade now, the FBI has been working on plans to move
various functions and headcount to out of the National Capital
Region. If our people.
Are going to be safe because this building.
Is unsafe be effective? And if we're going to be good

(43:19):
stewards of the taxpayers money and being good.
Stewards of the taxpayer dollarswe got to get.
Them all in a modern, safe, efficient FBI headquarters.
We're going to give you a. Building that's commensurate
with that and that's not this place.
And so there is. A big sum asked for in our
budget to support that, we're always going to.
Fight for our personnel and for as much money as we can get.
Force gave. Up a big nugget.

(43:40):
We want, it's the big nugget. The nugget.
Oh, we need a nicer, better building.
We want a building that is commensurate with the office
that I've taken on because I am a proud man who deserves plenty
of things. You know, we did the Tom
Haverford thing from Parks and Rec the other day, right?
Which is the classic, the lampooning of small government
or small country government where it's just useless

(44:02):
bureaucracy. Tom Haverford is the Indian
scheming guy who's always got a great idea and it's totally
useless. But he's, he's, he's comical and
he's charming and he's lovable and he's funny and he has all
these like ideas, these entrepreneurial ideas that are
going to make a bunch of money. And he's like, you got to treat
yourself right. I got to schmooze these people.
Tom Haverford is a perfect like cartoon fun, isn't it?

(44:27):
Isn't it enjoyable to have this guy like he's he's Comic Relief.
It's played by Aziz Ansari, who's a very talented comedian.
The darker side of it is this government officials who fly on
taxpayer dime. This is an old article coming
from looks like they've re updated it in in 2025.
But there's an entire Justice Department, Air Force is what
they claim. The DOJ owns, leases, operates a

(44:48):
fleet of airplanes and helicopters used by FBIDEAUS,
Marshall Service. A bunch of them are used for
surveillance. A huge chunk of them are being
used by executives for transportation like Pam Bondi,
like Cash Patel, apparently, like Dan Bongino, Like, I don't
know why I've never heard of a deputy needing that.
But I've never heard of a deputydirector needing a, a, a

(45:08):
protection detail either. The FBI primary uses its
aircraft for mission operations.False.
Let me just tell you upfront. False.
The specific ones that we're worried about are not used for
missions. Not generally the the mission
comes second to the directors travel unless you disagree or
less you think otherwise. Like it's actually obvious
because you can see this is onlygoing back to September.

(45:31):
I'm sorry goes back to October 17th.
This is 11 days worth of flights, 11 days with the
flights. Every single line there is a
flight by the FBI Director jet N708JH.
I had a journalist reached out to me today said how do you
know? Like, how do you know for a fact
that that in fact is the FBI director Jet?

(45:52):
Are you confident of this information?
Are you pretty sure? Like what?
What's the sourcing for this story that you have?
I was like, am I kind of sure? Am I pretty sure?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Let me help you out here.
I'm going to put it on the screen for you guys.
OK, Real simple. This is, this is the the jet and

(46:13):
the this is the information, theregistration information.
United States government is the owner of the jet with a tail
number, N708 Julian Hotel. It's all of ours.
It's public information. This is like open source stuff,
but in smaller details. What you find out is that the
information on that tail number tells you that it is registered
to the United States government with a street address of 935
Pennsylvania Ave. NW, 935 Pennsylvania Ave.

(46:37):
NW, Washington, DC. Look it up.
It even has its own zip code, 20535.
I know about that zip code. I used to put it down as my work
address. That's the Hoover building.
It's way easier to say you work for the FBI.
That's the headquarters buildingright there.
You don't have to give your individual office address.
It's owned by the FBI and it's used by the FBI.

(46:59):
It's a twin engine, 60 something, $1,000,000 aircraft
flown around by the FBI director.
So when did I know that there was a problem right here?
This is the chopped up version of the moment after he was sworn
in. He was confirmed and sworn in.
Behind him is a billionaire named Michael Muldoon.

(47:20):
At least I believe he's a billionaire.
He's a private jet owner and he's a man that I sat at a table
with and talked about private jets and the misuse that Chris
Wray was involved in with none other than Cash Patel.
It was a four man table at Aria in January of 2023, right about
the time when I did an article and right about the time when I
did an episode about politicallyappointed Princess.

(47:40):
This is a probably a pretty goodlittle reminder of this.
Here he is talking about I took this job.
It's a joke. It's clearly a joke.
I took this job because it was no other way I was going to get
a private jet. Sometimes people tell you the
truth with jokes. This is one of those times and.
The only reason I took this job was because my business acumen
sucks. All he said was from a private

(48:04):
threat. So the only way I was going to
get home was becoming the director of the FBI and.
I don't believe somebody said and and write children's books,
right? That's his buddies giving him a
little bit of a roast. Doesn't that make some sense?
So there you have it. The guy told you right up front

(48:25):
he was making a joke. It was funny.
It's a cute joke. Nobody's mad about it in April.
Daniel Clayman, CBS someone I'vetalked to fairly frequently,
Cash Patel once called for ending the FBI director's
government jet use. Now he won't reveal if he's a
frequent flyer. Fact checked.
Yeah, maybe he won't reveal it, but he is.

(48:46):
I shared this yesterday with you, but maybe I should
highlight it Two years ago, CashPatel at Cash True Social,
almost 2 million followers question #4 Ray mandates himself
to fly in private jets that we pay for.
Will you shut down this waste? This question is directed at
race boss Merrick Garland. So I ask you the question, Pam
Bondi, will you fix this problem?

(49:08):
Will you straighten it out? We don't need this.
The optics are terrible. Your FBI director is jumping
around to do this and reposting it for those.
You can see the tiny print. That's Alexis Wilkins.
Twitter Cash Patel's personal account reshared it.
Real American Freestyle 002. There's the belt, here's Kash

(49:29):
Patel, there she is singing the national anthem.
There she is with the belt. Again, I'm not trying to just be
shitty. I'm pointing out the man is
living high on our dollar while people are struggling to make it
through, people who actually do a necessary and useful function.
Here are some of those people. Flight delays persist on Monday
as air traffic controllers face work without pay.

(49:52):
Some people are deciding that they have to take sick outs.
Some people are trying to figureout whether they're going to be
able to make it. I understand that.
I'm less sympathetic than most, and yet it does suck to go to
work and know that you're not getting a paycheck, even if you
think that you'll probably get one eventually.
One of the few things that the federal government does quite
well in so much as it does it isthat we have a really good air

(50:15):
Traffic Safety record. Some of you guys will remember I
was in the Air Force. I went through air traffic
control school in Biloxi, Ms. Itwas at Keesler Air Force Base.
It's like a 3 1/2 month, 4 monthprogram.
I was the distinguished graduateof my ATC class.
I was really good at air trafficcontrol.
We learned radar, we learned visual, we learned tower.

(50:36):
I never actually went out and worked in the field doing that.
I got that card and never put itto work.
But I understand what ATC is andit's a pretty stressful job.
It's fun, it's interesting, it gets really monotonous and old.
I can imagine doing it every single day would be tough, and
doing it every single day, pushing little strips of paper
with the names and the information of all the planes,
making sure that they don't run into each other, trying to keep
everything within your airspace.It's kind of like playing Pong,

(50:58):
but you're doing it with air, with commands, so you're
commanding. Is it Pong, a tank battle?
I don't know. It's like playing an Atari game
where you're trying to keep things inside this weird,
awkward space and not hit the walls.
It's pretty interesting that somebody who was so vocal about
Chris Ray, who was so sure that Chris Ray was the problem, was
unable, unwilling or unable to just do the most simple thing in

(51:20):
the world, which was stop using the jet.
Luckily, the sort of lackluster Peter Welsh, who is a senator
from Vermont, he went to talk about this.
Wouldn't it be nice if we had people with principles all the
time, and not just when their political opponents were out

(51:42):
there, you know? When you were here, you were
rightly critical. Not here, actually, I guess it
was on Cash's corner. You were rightly critical of the
way that the previous FBI director used the the the FBI
jet. And you said you wanted to
ground Chris Ray's private jet travel that he pays for with

(52:03):
taxpayer dollars to hop around the country.
Let me ask you this. You know, on the weekend of,
according to flight tracker data, on the weekend of March
7th, an FBI plane flew round trip from DC to Las Vegas.
And you attended the UFC flight with Mel Gibson.
And I'll show you that. Is that you?

(52:24):
And is that true? Yeah.
You want to. Do the difference?
I live in Las Vegas. I'm allowed to go home.
I didn't leave a congressional hearing early on an FBI jet to
dodge questions. All right then, on.
April 5th, you attended a hockeygame in New York City.
You don't live there, right? No.
I don't, by the way, everyday FBI.
Agents who are signed in Washington don't get to fly home

(52:45):
on a private jet. Well, this is a great.
Point Do you know why I have to use a private jet?
Because Congress made it mandatory.
In the April 5th well, we didn'tmake it in mandatory that you go
to UFC games with Mel Gibson. Are you telling me I.
Can't go home? You got to use some judgment
here. So when I'm at home, I can't do
what I'm doing when I go home. Everybody else is allowed to go

(53:08):
home. Keep going.
No. I'm glad you go home.
I love to go home, but I don't go home on a private jet.
Oops, you hear the contempt? How dare you question me?
That sort of attitude, that sortof regal disdain for oversight.
Where's the humility there? He argues.

(53:28):
Like a woman. By the way, I'm not allowed to
go home. Women, you know what I'm talking
about. The point is, is that you made a
really, really awful decision ontaxpayer dollars and it looks
terrible and you're out partyingit up in Las Vegas.
It's the same argument I made against Chris Ray, by the way.
He never moved his permanent residence.

(53:49):
It's supposed to be a 10 year appointment to the job.
You don't relocate. Every single FBI employee leaves
where they're from, wherever home is, and they moved to the
place that they're assigned to work.
You're assigned to work at the Hoover building.
Why do you not live there? Why do you still maintain a
rental place with a billionaire in Las Vegas?
You don't even own it. It's not even like that.

(54:10):
You had to divest. Just stop paying it.
Every single person in the military gets PCs orders,
permanent change of station. They don't get to go home.
So he's like, oh, I don't get togo home.
No, your home is now in Washington, DC.
That's why you have a $20,000 a month apartment there, bro.

(54:31):
Let them fly coach. That ought to be the thing that
they say. Let them fly coach because I'm
going to go to a wrestling event.
Unless you think I'm just going to be poking fun at cash.
This is a universal problem for people that get in this place.
I will show you the same contempt.
These are two clips with the same energy that you just saw,
Senator. I, I had had a flight that I'm
supposed to be high tailing it to out of here and I had

(54:54):
understood that we were going tobe done at 1:30.
So that was that's how we ended up where we are.
If it's. Your If it's your business trip,
you got your own plane. Can it wait a while?
Sorry to be honest I've I've tried to make my break as fast
as I could to get right back outhere you.

(55:15):
Took more than 5 minutes. This is.
Yep. And then he left.
Didn't care. FBI Director Chris Ray summons
Bureau jet to DC area airport tododge whistleblower or to dodge
traffic. So says whistleblower.
Who's that whistleblower? Guys, you're about to hear my
words, Josh Halley's mouth. Last time you were here, you had

(55:40):
to leave early to take a jet to your vacation in the
Adirondacks. Now, let me just ask you This
whistleblower tells us that you also maintain a home in Atlanta
to which you fly on a regular basis.
I'm told by this whistleblower from the FBI that you use the
FBI jet to make that travel. Is that correct?
All of my. Travel, personal or work related

(56:03):
is required to be done on FBI planes.
That is long standing policy goes back well over a decade.
I'll take that as a. Yes.
The whistleblower also says thatyou regularly require the jet,
which is based in Manassas, to be flown to DC because, and I
quote now, Ray doesn't like to sit in traffic.
Is that accurate? No, that's not accurate.

(56:24):
He also. Says that you pay only the
lowest cost commercial ticket for that Atlanta DC trip, just I
don't know what 200 bucks or something when of course it cost
2030 thousand to operate the jet.
Is that correct the? The reimbursement that I provide
is reimbursement that is set by OMB policy and I follow that
policy which goes back over a decade and I think it's been

(56:46):
chronicled in GSA report from back in like 2013.
You provide all the. Records to this committee of
your travel and relevant, I'll provide whatever.
Information is appropriate, absolutely.
Did you guys catch that OMB? That's Ralph.
That's Russell or Russ Vaught. Now OMB, the cost is whatever
the least expensive commercial ticket is, including Frontier

(57:08):
Airlines or Spirit. That's what he pays for a
$10,000 an hour plus private jet.
That goes for cash Patel, that goes for Chris Ray.
That was the same for comedy. That was the same for Mueller.
They don't have to pay what we would pay.
It's cheaper for them to fly a private jet at their beck and
call to the airport of their choosing closest to their target
destination with a security detail that picks them up and a

(57:30):
security detail that drops them off.
Talk about Uber. They have a a an armed secure
detail with a three car convoy that picks them up in in
government vehicles at all timesout of our pocket and the
reimbursement is $200 because you did a round trip somewhere.
Same energy on April. 5th They're not mandated.

(57:50):
To do so, you attended. A hockey game in New York City
with Wayne Gretzky. And flight tracker says the FBI
jet took you to and from New York City where you don't live,
right? That's correct.
And on April 12th, on the following weekend, you attended
AUFC flight, a fight in Miami, also on the FBI jet, right?

(58:11):
That's correct. So what's the cost to the
taxpayer for those three flights?
But I pay. The commercial equivalent per
the rags in the law. And so just so you know, when
you are comparing me to prior directors?
I asked. What the cost was and you don't
know, I take it? Yeah.

(58:32):
And what? I've done with the with the use
of the private jet is use Andrews Air Force Base versus
Reagan National as what the other directors have done.
Bottom line here to save the taxpayer dollars here you.
Flew home to the Las Vegas. There's nobody else in the FBI
who gets paid. They they don't.
They have to pay their own way if they want to go home, right?
I mean one of the right? Well, that's not accurate.

(58:53):
Depending on where you're stationed, the FBI covers the
bill to get home. So.
Are you telling me that FBI agents who are signed in
Washington but who may live in Charlotte, they get paid by the
FBI? Sometimes they do.
Yes, right. Yeah, sometimes.
They do, but basically no they don't.
That's a mostly false statement.I don't know how many Pinocchios
you assigned to that, but basically that's not true

(59:16):
because let me just give you a real personal example.
When I was on temporary duty, not assigned yet, I went to the
FBI Academy. I didn't see my wife for four,
what, 5 months? Five months and change.
I left in July and I didn't get to see her again until we moved
in together and at the end of November when I graduated.
That's pretty standard. And if I wanted to go home, I
would have taken out of my pocket and potentially lost my

(59:37):
job. So I didn't do it.
Some people actually sacrifice real things.
Let's also put into the perspective, this is Cash Patel
right there. That is his not wife, but
girlfriend. There's no legal standing for
girlfriend in America. Your legal status as a
girlfriend is a chick that I happen to know and maybe I spend
time in bed with. That's what a girlfriend is.
It doesn't have any legal protections.

(59:58):
You don't have spousal privilege.
We do not recognize it on tax forms.
Having a girlfriend is the same as nothing, because there's no
legally binding thing that makesyou stop being there tomorrow.
She could not be his girlfriend.She could walk away.
He could do the same. There's no legal status.
You don't have a change of your House of record, and you're
doing it not to go back to your wife.
At least Chris Ray was married. At least he had a spouse that

(01:00:19):
he'd been with for many years. In a home that he was invested
in. Cash.
Patel doesn't even own a house in Las Vegas.
You guys get it? That's a girlfriend.
That's what you have when you'rein high school and college.
You go home and see your girlfriend.
Am I making light of this for people who are single?
And that offends you. I'm sorry that offends you, but

(01:00:39):
you have no status because you can walk away from it at any
time. Then turn and look at people
that are married. There's legal documents there.
There's there are rules that govern what a spousal
partnership looks like in every single state.
The federal government recognizes it on tax forms.
They do not recognize that when you are just some chick that you
see sometimes who lives in another city, she doesn't even

(01:01:00):
live in Las Vegas. She lives in Nashville.
And he's gone there on our dollar and there it is and spent
the night over it, which isn't abig deal unless you're out there
trying to like tout your Christian virtue.
You're American as as apple pie.I guess this is an old thing.
Maybe I'm old fashioned that way.
I'm sure I am. That's fine.
He's out there touting this Andrews Air Force Base like it's

(01:01:21):
a solution. Look at all the green circles I
have on this on this slide here,folks.
Andrews Air Force Base, that is a short flight and I have no
idea why we're flying there. 12 minutes long, 14 minutes long,
19 minutes long, the most expensive up and the most
expensive down. You're flying through the
thickest air. It cost the most amount of money
to operate when they tell you $10,000 per hour to operate this

(01:01:43):
jet. That's on average when you've
got cruising speeds built in because you're only supposed to
have like the flight is supposedto be most of the hour and all
you're doing is going up and down.
You're doing the most amount of thrust, the most amount of work,
the most amount of stress on theairframe, the most amount of
like, you know, impact on the wheels, the most amount of
maintenance that's necessary. I'm just saying thanks for using

(01:02:07):
our money really well. I'm glad you got this cool
selfie and I'm glad you guys gotto take pictures with the belt.
I have a bunch of other picturesfrom the Instagram too.
They went out and they did a rodeo.
They went to a rodeo. They got to go down with the
bulls suite, just like all of you guys do.
You know, whenever you guys go to the rodeo, they invite you
right next to the bulls so you can go down there in the shoot.
Everybody wants to take a picture with you.
Oh, you don't live like a billionaire.
That's not your thing. You don't travel like this.

(01:02:30):
Got it? OK, again, the reason why I
don't like both sides of the aisle is because the people who
are supposed to be doing the oversight let the thing go right
in front of them and they took it at his word.
Oh well, you're going to Andrew's instead of DCA No
problem. Even though it's the exact same
whistleblower complaint I made to Josh Howley and you guys
heard him read my words. Comedy became.

(01:02:52):
FBI director 2013. And then something like when I
became ranking member in the middle of a Congress or a
ranking member comedy needed an excuse to come to Des Moines,
IA, or someplace in Iowa for a family reunion.
He wanted to meet with me in Waterloo, IA.

(01:03:16):
I think nothing more than an excuse to say he did something
official on that trip. So.
I find interesting that my Democratic colleagues seem to
bring up about your use of the Justice Department planes, yet

(01:03:37):
my Democratic colleagues didn't seem too interested about my
oversight of Ray's use of the plane.
I didn't hear a peep, so my Democratic colleagues need to be
consistent. Can I just add, Mr. Chairman,
that when you compare the flightlogs and the percentage of work
travel to personal travel for the prior to FBI directors, over
a third of their travel was personal on those same jets that

(01:04:00):
I'm being accused of improperly utilizing.
My mark is far less than that. Also, both of those directors
use Reagan National Airport, which has landing fees of five
to $10,000 because they didn't want to drive 25 minutes to
Andrews. We take off and land in Andrews
every single time because it's cheaper.
Why don't? You take off from Manassas,
where I used to work, where you can go, that's almost entirely

(01:04:22):
run by the federal government and you have access to it 100%
of the time. And you guys have key card
access and the surg bases out there and there's multiple FBI
properties. The rest of it is government
contractors or other government agencies like CBP and ICE and
DHS. Why don't you just fly out of
Manassas, bro? Why don't you?
Why do you have to go to, to, toto Andrews?
Oh, 'cause it's more convenient by a short amount of time and

(01:04:42):
you can just drive a few minutesaway up in Maryland.
Is that closer to your apartmentor something?
Are you late for a meeting? And so that's just the easier
way to do it. Why do they do this?
There should be an explanation why the plane flies to the
director when we are only 40 minutes away from driving out to
Manassas. How do you know Kyle?
I worked there for three years. I worked out of the airport.
I had key card access to walk across the freaking tarmac to

(01:05:05):
where the director's jet was. People were asking me this
morning, how do you know? I'm like, in addition to the
millions of things that are out there, I have personal knowledge
and experience. I've stood in that hangar.
I've give briefings where the FBI director jet lives and it's
a super nice hanger and it's runby FBI personnel and it's
private and they can load up there.
You can drive right on up right to the freaking edge of the of

(01:05:28):
the plane. You can drive your SU VS there.
You'll never even be exposed to the weather.
They don't even have to hold an umbrella for you.
Mr. Patel, billionaire wannabe. The fun thing is, is that I know
that the information I shared yesterday made it to the White
House and now you guys do too. That information, this
information made it there. But if the left picks up on it,

(01:05:49):
if the people in the Democrat, you know, Senate, if the
Democrats in the House like the Eric Swalwell's or the Adam
shifts decide to pick this thingup and run it, there will be an
outrage that will be played all the way until the midterms.
Because Cash Patel gave ammunition to the other side.
Because he's stupid and he's prideful.
He's arrogant and he doesn't think that anybody knows.

(01:06:11):
And he thinks he's above it. He's used to people signing
autographs and they're psyched to see him.
They can't help but start believing that the hype that
they had, that the life that they're living is because they
deserve that life and politically appointed Princess
are inherently problematic. Trump should do better.

(01:06:34):
He's famous for saying you're fired, you've got somebody
waiting in the wings. He's been there since September
the eighth. Andrew Bailey's ready to step
up. You won't even hear from him.
He's got no social media. We suddenly won't be hearing
about good cops doing cops. We'll just hear, baby, that the
FBI got depoliticized. And we'll talk about something
else in this podcast. But until then, this weapon
system is what I have and I'm going to use it for what it's

(01:06:55):
for. Which is pointing out hypocrisy
from either side because I don'thave a team.
As I told people last night, I'mnot on a team.
I never got drafted. Nobody from either side pays me.
Nobody tells me what I can or can't say.
My sponsors don't tell me what Ican or can't say.
My friends over at shieldarmsshieldarms.com, promo

(01:07:15):
code Kyle, I talked to them the other day.
You guys want to get a gun? You want to go to a company that
I actually have on my wall in case something goes bump in the
night, Boom, that's what I use. You want to talk about my
friends over at Patriot Coolers,Boom, I've got one right here.
I use them everyday. If they told me that I couldn't
say something, then we would have to get rid of a sponsor.
That'd be a bummer. Same thing.
Silent, never once weighed in onwhat we have to say.
Never. I'm not even sure they know what

(01:07:36):
I say. I'm not sure any of these people
know. What they know is that my brand
is authentic. My thoughts are my own.
And so when I tell you that I like a product, it stands that I
actually like that product. I turn stuff away all the time.
That's why there's a Cove Pure sitting up on our on our our
countertop for our kids. Literally.
I will not take an advertising dollar if it's not a thing that
I would have in my home or use myself.

(01:07:58):
That's it. And I'll say what it is that I
think needs to be said. Regardless of whose feelings it
hurts. I don't care.
It's not about that. We're about telling you what we
believe is true. Here's the facts.
Here's my analysis. You know what my bias is?
Go forth and do whatever you want with it.
And when you lie to my face, andI want a number of people in
this administration, particularly in the DOJ side

(01:08:18):
have done just that, that have made claims that I know for a
fact are false, including Underoath, then we are going to
have a real freaking problem. I will not let it go.
And the and the right number of people are paying attention,
small audience, but an audience of people who know who to talk
to. So people inside that The West

(01:08:40):
Wing of the White House know what we're talking about right
now and they are very concerned.Imagine if CNN starts running
this front page. Imagine if Chuck Schumer starts
going out and and pulling out their favorite guy.
Cory Booker stated very clearly that we don't expect to see you
here for another hearing, Mr. Patel, because you're not good
at your job. You're doing a poor job.
You've given him more ammunition.

(01:09:01):
Cory Booker already knows that Cash Patel committed perjury.
You want to give him another one?
You want to give him an optics win in the middle of a
government shutdown where peopleare about to go nuts because
they're not going to get their their SNAP benefits and you're
living like a millionaire and you're flying around with a snow
cone machine in the sky. Run that all you want.
See how that plays out in the midterms.

(01:09:22):
Republicans or do the right thing.
Get rid of the dude. The case has already been made.
They failed. We got no pipe bomber.
We have no Epstein files. There's still numerous
questions. You got the Democrats united on
that. We don't know who had the coke
in the White House. We don't know who leaked the DOB
decision. None of those things are big FBI
cases, but you made them big FBIcases and you failed on all of

(01:09:44):
them. All of you have failed on that,
so it's time to shut it down. Fall on your sword, step out the
door, give another guy a try, orjust shut the whole agency down.
Make them all part of ICE if that's what you're going to have
them do anyway. If all the new agents are
getting sent over to ICE detail and you want to just round up
illegals, knock it out. No big deal.
Let the locals pick up the slack, it'll be fine.
That's my take for the day. You guys want something funny?

(01:10:05):
We should do something funny. I should all show self promo.
I never I hate doing this stuff self promo watch us on Spotify.

just what this program is. It's small as it is it, but it's

(01:10:46):
honest every time. I appreciate all of you guys
watching that. Let's do something funny.
We should at least smile. This lady's having a hard time
financially. You guys can all appreciate it.
Imagine if your entire income stream was based on your pet
lizard. I'm so.
Fucking stressed out for runningmy pet lizard's Instagram
account. I'm about to have a nervous
breakdown, I told my therapist. She said we'll take a break from

(01:11:09):
your pet lizard's Instagram account.
I said I can't, it's my sole source of income.
I have to. Post a fucking photo of the
lizard. Every day.
Every fucking day. Four or five reels with the
lizard playing with him, whipping his arms around in the
air, throwing them around in my little 1 little tiny apartment.

(01:11:30):
It smells like lizard piss. Oh man, the the drugs I have to
inject in that lizard just to wake it up, just to get it, just
to get it moving for the day. I pumped all my money into this
fucking lizard. My fans will comment stuff about
how the work I'm doing is important.
Bringing the lizard, bringing the attention of the lizard
community or bringing the lizards?

(01:11:52):
Bringing the lizard to attention.
Lizard issues to the forefront. Piece of shit fucking like.
I've been holding on to that forso long.
I don't know why I love that so much.
That girl reminds me of the original Sarah Connor, doesn't

(01:12:14):
she? She's just stressed out, man.
So people have it real rough. They got me.
Imagine you. You think the life of an
influencer is easy. Got to inject so much stuff into
that lizard. All right, I'm going to go watch
dragonflies go eat bugs with my kids.
How about that? I hope you guys have a fantastic
day. So what do you guys have to find
this girl? If you can find out who she is,

(01:12:34):
we'll have her on the program and talk about her lizard
problems. She could hook up with our buddy
Tack Penis who's dracing snapping turtles.
The two of them could be tycoonsin the in the amphibian
influencer space. All right, that's all.
That's all we got. Stick around.
If you're on Rumble, you'll be able to see Steve friend.
I think he's doing the American radicals right now because he's
still not back to work. Yet another lie from this dude.
God bless you guys. It's been fun.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
