Deep State Panic? Tulsi Drops Criminal Referral Bombshell | Episode 269

Hey, good morning. Welcome to Vince on a Thursday. Great to have you with me as always. The best audience anywhere. We've got a lot to get to today. A message of hope, optimism, and self-determination in the face of so much destruction and cynicism, and yes, progressivism. I've got the words of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas on this 250th anniversary of our country coming up. You will want to hear these. They are great. They're really great. A very realistic perspective on the state of our country right now. Also, we're going to take a close look at the new DHS secretary. That's right, Mark Wayne Mullen, who uttered a phrase on national television in the last 24 hours that has me going, what the hell was that? And the director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has just made a massive criminal referral. These are very important details, and they're all ahead on this edition of Vince. Great to have you with me as always. You guys are great. Look at you. Everybody's showing up in the chat today. American flags in the chat. Good morning, Sharon. Is it Sharon, Florida, or is it Sharon F.I. saying good morning to the Army, both the United States Army and then the very online Bungino Army. Good morning to you as well. I had Dan Bungino on our show yesterday, the big national radio show. We talked about Eric Swalwell. We talked about background checks and FBI investigations. It was pretty great. I'll be joining Dan's show next week, Wednesday on his podcast. So look forward to that. It's going to be awesome. It's going to be really awesome. All right. A lot to get to. Let's thank the great sponsors who are making all of this possible each day. Let's see here. Who do we have this morning? Oh, that's right. HomeServe. I love HomeServe. HomeServe is a great operation because it brings you the peace of mind that you need when you're a homeowner. Owning a home is an amazing thing. It really is. Until the moments that is not, until you are in the midst of chaos. One minute you'll be enjoying that delicious morning coffee and then the next, you're ankle deep in water from a burst pipe. No. Repairs don't care about your timing. They definitely don't care about your budget. Look, you protect your health, your car, even your phone. But what about your home? It's probably your biggest investment. And when something breaks, that can cost you big time. That's where HomeServe comes in. Regular homeowners insurance might not cover the everyday breakdowns like a furnace failure. A broken light switch. A busted water heater. But HomeServe offers plans that do help to cover those kinds of repairs. It's like a subscription for your home, starting at just $4.99 a month. Now as a homeowner, I couldn't imagine anything better. Again, it's very affordable for that kind of peace of mind. It's a no-brainer. Help protect your home systems and your wallet with HomeServe against covered repairs. Plans started just $4.99 a month. Go to homeserve.com. Find the plan that's right for you. That's homeserve.com. It's not available everywhere. Most plans range between $4.99 to $11.99 a month, your first year. In terms of supply on covered repairs, see homeserve.com for details. Yeah, we got a big speech from the United States Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. We love Clarence Thomas, don't we, folks? Clarence Thomas is wonderful. In fact, there's a lot of chatter this week. Have you noticed this? Suddenly the chatter is growing about whether or not Clarence Thomas or Sam Alito are going to retire and whether they should retire now while Republicans have control of the United States Senate. Look, no question, the future of our country matters a lot and we do need great justices like a Thomas and like an Alito on the court. Clearly, the president is thinking about this. This came up as an interview with Maria Bartirone as well. Nobody knows what the future holds. We'll see. But on that subject, while I'm talking about it, if I had any sort of desire whatsoever, any wish whatsoever, it would be that Clarence Thomas and Sam Alito, if they decide to retire for whatever reason, if they decide to retire, then they have a hand in picking their own replacements. Don't you think that'd be a good idea? These are the guys, these are the reliable guys on the court, the guys who are standing up for the Constitution, the American founding, natural rights, standing up for the rule of law, standing up for eternal truth, that believe in the founding documents. These guys, I want them to have a very heavy hand in recommending who the next person up should be if that comes to pass at all. And none of this, outside groups coming up with lists and then we end up with somebody on the court who kind of sucks in the end. It's not that great. No, we don't need any of that. We don't need sucks. We need excellence. We need faithfulness to the Constitution and the American people. So if for whatever reason, Justice Thomas or Justice Alito decided at any point here that yeah, it's time to check out, please, please, please, Mr. President, take seriously those two men and their recommendations. In fact, I'd be happy if they came up with their own list, the two of them. They just cobbled together a list of the people that they want for the United States Supreme Court going forward. And we just rely on that list as the basis for making these picks. Wouldn't that be better? I think it'd be fantastic. To add to the evidence of why that would be fantastic, I'm going to show you some of Clarence Thomas now. For the 250th anniversary of our country, he went and he spoke at the University of Texas Austin Law School yesterday, last night, and he talked about the American founding and what we are the inheritors of and what the left has been trying to destroy. Now, this has created immediately some headlines. Now, if you are watching me live on Rumble right now at 8 a.m. Eastern time, rumble.com slash Vince, chances are you haven't seen a lot of clips from this speech yet. And part of the reason for that, as I determined this morning as I was going through my notes, is there aren't a lot of very good transcripts out yet of the of the Justice's speech. So as a result, it's been a little difficult to navigate to where he has expressed some of these views. But let me show you some of what I found and some of what I was able to see. I'm watching this speech this morning. I'm going, it's a jaw dropper. It is so stinking good. You should go watch it yourself when you get the time. It's a wonderful recitation of American history and the left's attacks on it. But here is the ABC News headline this morning. They're kind of whiny about it. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas blasts progressivism as threat to America. As threat to America, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas on Wednesday delivered a televised broadside against progressivism, a political philosophy he described as an existential threat to America and the principles that founded it 250 years ago. Quote, progressivism seeks to replace the basic premises of the Declaration of Independence and hence our form of government. Thomas said in a speech at the University of Austin Law School, pegged to the nation's upcoming milestone birthday, quote, a spirit of cynicism, rejection, hostility and animus toward America by Americans has taken hold. Thomas said in remarks carried live on C-span. I love that little dig. You see, you know what that means right there? People could see this. Wait, these remarks were carried live on C-span? How out of control is Clarence Thomas that he would utter these phrases out loud. This is an attack on Americans. ABC is saying. Well, of course it's not. What Clarence Thomas is doing is standing up for our country, its founding and our people. He's standing up for our ability to determine for ourselves how we live our lives. And he's once again reminding everyone that the United States Constitution was designed to impose limits on the government. It provides the outer bounds of what the government is allowed to do. The Constitution is a contract. It is the consent of the government. It is the consent of the American people that allows this government to exist in its limited form. This is what he's talking about. So Justice Thomas is standing up for the very greatest traditions of our American history. And as he does, he offers a really great history here of our country. Let me show this to you. Here's a bit of what I was able to find this morning. This is Clarence Thomas's speech, one of the finest moments in it that I tracked down, as he talks about what progressivism seeks to do to the United States. And as you listen to this, see if it sounds in any way familiar to the current battles we're going through. Watch. Progressivism seeks to replace the basic premises of the Declaration of Independence and hence our form of government. It holds that our rights and our dignities come not from God, but from government. It requires of the people a subservience and weakness incompatible with a Constitution premised on the transcendent origin of our rights. You will not be surprised to learn that the progressives had a great deal of contempt for us, the American people. Before he entered politics, Wilson would describe the American people as quote, selfish, ignorant, timid, stubborn, and foolish. He lamented that we do too much by vote and too little by expert rule. He proposed that the people be ruled by administrators who use them as tools. He once again aspired to be like Germany, where the people, he said, admirably, were docile and acquiescent. The century of progressivism did not go well. The European system that Wilson and the progressive scolded Americans for not adopting, which he called nearly perfect, led to the governments that caused the most awful century that the world has ever seen. Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, and Mao all were intertwined with the rise of progressivism and all were opposed to the natural rights on which our declaration are based. Many progressives express admiration for each of them shortly before their governments killed tens of millions of people. It was a terrible mistake to adopt progressivism's rejection of the declaration's vision of universal, unalienable, natural rights. Where's the lie? He nailed it. He nailed it. How good was that, Chet? How good was that? As he explained that progressivism gave us Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, Mao, and the death of tens of millions of people, that's what progressivism has wrought. Progressivism is a force for destruction, for suppression. It diminishes us. That's what Clarence Thomas is now warning everybody about, and he's singing the praises of our history that Americans throughout our history, despite attempts to infuse progressivism into our country, have resisted. We have, to a much greater extent than most of the planet, than the rest of the planet, in fact, resisted the forces of progressivism. But they continue to be on the march. You heard him reference Woodrow Wilson, Woodrow Wilson, a sinister, racist, progressive president from early in the last century, Democrat, who, you know, just out of control, re-segregated the federal government, had an utter contempt for the American voter. That thought process, certainly shades of that thought process, continued to dominate now among the American left. They continued to dominate. Everything from the racial prejudice to the animus towards American citizens, the belief that Americans shouldn't be able to handle their own affairs, that you should not be able to protect yourself or your own family with guns, that you shouldn't handle your own finances, that you can't take care of your own family. In fact, that family itself should be divided against one another, that biology itself is a matter of the government telling you whether or not, you know, like, basically whether or not men and women even exist. This is all, it's still happening. And so Clarence Thomas here in our 250th anniversary is reminding everyone that the founding documents acknowledged that we are not God and that we are endowed by our creator with these inalienable rights, these natural rights. And that at our best, in order for this country to survive, we need to constantly remember that and fight for it and not become despondent. You can't become despondent. There's a lot of pressure on you right now, and there has been throughout American history, but you can feel it right now, can't you? There's a lot of pressure on you right now to give up, to wave the white flag of surrender, to tap out, to say nothing, nothing can change, it's all going down, I'm not, I'm tapping out of the system, I'm not going to vote. There's an immense amount of pressure and my suspicion is, if you're watching this program, you are not succumbing to it. You are still staying in the fight. This audience does. But you probably know people in your life who have vocalized this sentiment, which is like, I give up, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if I get involved at all, we always lose, it's all going down, it's all going to burn. Don't succumb to this and don't allow the people around you to succumb to it either, because that pessimism is the poisonous fruit of progressivism. That's the goal. That kind of defeated, despondent attitude is the goal of people like Woodrow Wilson, of the progressives, who are trying to make the population so despondent and so servile and so disinterested in determining their own futures that they allow the government to control everything about their lives. That's the end goal. Don't let them have it. In fact, Clarence Thomas, during the question and answer portion yesterday at the University of Texas, Austin, at the law school, he addressed this, this idea that Americans are growing despondent and he warned them, don't do that. You need to stand up and take ownership of your own country. Watch, here's Justice Thomas yesterday on that. I think if we don't stand up and take ownership of our country and take responsible for it, we are slowly letting others control how we think and what we think. I think the beauty of going to school is that you learn how to think for yourself. You develop the discipline to think things through. If you think it's losing confidence, then you get up and you participate. You don't sit on the sidelines. You think that the state is being run and inconsistent with how you feel, then you get up and you participate. You prepare yourself. If you think that the medical profession is not right, whether you become a doctor or be a medical person and you deal with that, I think we need to take ownership of our country. It's our country. It's our country. This is our country. We determine its future. We're not going to sit back and let others destroy it. Now, that's not the first time in the last 24 hours we've heard a message like that from somebody who's in a position of power in our country and influence. It's great to hear this from Justice Clarence Thomas. We also heard the same message from the vice president of the United States, JD Vance, at the University of Georgia, not 24 hours prior, where he sat on that stage, turning point USA, and he told Americans that if you don't like what's happening in your government, you need to get involved. You need to vocalize. You need to be involved and you need to fight. The people telling you, he says, that the midterms, for instance, are a foregone conclusion, are the ones who want Republicans to lose in the midterms. They're trying to convince you to check out of the process. Don't let them do it. This is the poisonous fruit of progressivism. The poisonous fruit of empowering the government to rule every aspect of your life is convincing you not to be involved in determining your own path forward. It's a, in a way, though, it's, you know, as I'm, as I'm talking about this, there's, I get, I drive a lot of optimism out of this, a lot of hope out of it, a happy reminder that it is within my power to do something good for my country and within your power as well. Of course, we have agency that the future is determined by how much effort we put into securing it. So we can do it. So we can do it. It's a, it's a positive vision for what can be done in the face of dark forces who are trying to prevent us from doing it. So keep fighting. And that's why, on this program, and in, and in my other work, and I'm constantly having to talk about not just the problems that are manifesting on the left, but the problems that are manifesting within our own ranks, or at least the people who call themselves Republican, and, you know, where this, this suit of conservative, or they claim to be, and then they advance like poisonous ideas that work against us. So in a moment, I'm going to talk to you about six Republicans who yesterday decided to advance yet another poisonous idea that would deteriorate our country, that would reward lawbreaking. And we can't abide that. So I've got the details on that and a lot more all ahead on this edition of Vince. Great to have you with me as always. Really, really the best audience anywhere. Hey, let me tell you about one of our great sponsors, Bone Charge. Bone Charge is amazing. They sent me an infrared sauna blanket and sent Alison a red light face mask. We love these products. The Bone Charge infrared sauna blanket is what a nice addition that has been to my house because now I've got a sauna in the house, which I never thought I'd be able to do something like that. It's a sauna blanket. It's infrared heat and I can just wrap myself up in it and it helps with muscle recovery detoxification as a total game changer for me. And for my wife, Alison, she loves that red light face mask because she wears it each day. It takes, you know, I don't know even how this happens, but it's got a charge. It holds a charge and it holds it seems like forever. So she doesn't have to charge it that often. She wears it each night and it's this great red light therapy and it helps your skin's texture reduces inflammation. She has seen fantastic results from it. It's like having a mini spa treatment right in our home. So look, if you're thinking about trying either of these things out, you are in luck.

So yesterday, we were served up at least like a portion. It's not a law yet. Don't fear that, but let's strangle this thing while we can. Another immigration betrayal. How many immigration betrayals are some of these House Republicans going to be involved in cooking up? A half dozen House Republicans yesterday broke ranks with the rest of their party to advance a bill that would give illegal alienations amnesty. So yesterday, six House Republicans joined with Democrats. So the vote ended up being 219 to 209. And the way that this went down, this was not for final passage. This is just to move the bill forward. Eric D'Arty had this on X. Take a look at this. This is his recitation of what went down. He said, six House Republicans just joined Democrats to protect Haitian migrants 219 to 209. Illegals. Are you kidding me right now? This would give Haitians temporary protective status, a category in which one of them killed that woman in Florida at a gas station, yeah, with a hammer to the face. Per Tim Burchett, a Democrat motion to provide for consideration that legal immigrants status to Haitians, it provides legal immigrant status to Haitians who were already in the United States. You have illegal Haitians who are here, and we're going to allow them to stay and several Republicans looked them up who they were. So that's what Tim Burchett was recommending. Here are the Republican Yays, and you will not be shocked to see these names because they keep appearing in all these amnesty packages. Here, Salazar, Maria Salazar again, Bacon, Bacon. How many times do I have to say this? Don Bacon, the one time Bacon doesn't improve something, Congress, Fitzpatrick, Jimenez, Lawler, and Malia Takis. Those are the six. Those are the six who voted to advance this idiocy, and this betrayal of our country's laws. It's a betrayal of the American citizen. It's a betrayal of the 2024 election mandate, which is to secure our borders and get foreign invaders out of our country. If you don't have laws, you don't have a country. If you don't have borders, you don't have a country. Here's Tim Burchett explaining exactly what happened yesterday on the House floor. I love these Tim Burchett videos. Here he is. Hey, everybody. Tim Burchett is leaving the House floor three bills, two of no real significance. The third, unbelievably, a Democrat motion to provide for consideration that legal immigrants status to Haitians, they provide legal immigrants status to Haitians who are already in the United States. So you have illegal Haitians here, and we're going to allow them to stay in four Republicans. Look them up who they were. You can pretty much guess, but go ahead and look them up. Anyway, unbelievable. This is one time I'm glad for inaction in the Senate, but that got me. This is what we've become. We got to clean this mess up here. Anyway, thank you all for sending me here. We'll keep fighting. Thank you all for sending me there. Here, we'll keep fighting. I like that sentiment, by the way. Congressman Burchett expresses it at the end of every one of these videos. I went back and checked. He says it every time. Thank you all for sending me here. We'll keep fighting. We need more like him. We need more like him. We just need honesty about what the hell's going on in Congress. And we do need to purge the ranks of people who would sell us out like this and then tell us it's for our own good. It's not. It's a betrayal. It's a betrayal. We have an immigration system. We have a legal immigration system, and it should be followed. And if it's not followed, then you shouldn't be here. These are simple concepts. Yesterday, the DHS secretary, Mark Wayne Mullen, was on the Fox News channel with Laura Ingram, and he slammed this move to his credit. He slammed this move by these members of Congress to advance amnesty. Take a look here. Here's the secretary, Mark Wayne Mullen, on this issue. Unfortunately, TPS turns into a permanent status. We have people that's been here for 30 years, and then when we say we're going to end to protected status for you, they end up coming in and saying, well, wait a second. It's inhumane because we're married. We have family. We have kids here. We have grandkids here. We work here, and now we're going to send you back home. But it was never supposed to be permanent. And the problem is that when you start extending these programs, they become permanent. And I have a real hard, I have a hard issue with TPS to begin with because we don't ever end it. We always extend it. We have asylum laws here, and if you need asylum and you can prove that you have asylum, we're pretty generous in that. Very small percentage. But it is a very small percentage. But that's what I'm saying. If you can prove it, which is the president has tightened that other. President Trump, we have tightened the asylum. It's been brilliant at the border, brilliant lockdown. They're not accepting the fake asylees, but they would extend their stay in the United States for that till January 20, 2029. President Trump's last day in office. And we are not for that. Yeah. And we just saw a report on that on that issue, how brilliant President Trump has been in locking all of this down. We just had this report. I'm pulling it up because I'm just reminded of it earlier this week from Cato, which does not support locking down the borders. This is not an organization that supports locking down the borders. They're angry that President Trump is locking down the borders. But they cited the data as a way to, I think, attack Trump. And yet it's really a huge celebration of what Trump has accomplished. Trump has cut legal immigration even more than illegal immigration, they say. He's dramatically cut down on people pouring into our country. And I've said for a while, we need a full blown moratorium on all migration into the United States, illegal aliens pouring in or legal immigration. We need to lock everything down for a time so that we can reestablish the United States of America, fix the problems here, deport anybody who's not supposed to be here, clean up the system, and then have a functioning legal immigration system where it works into both interests of both parties. It works to the benefit of the American people and of course, to the benefit of the legal immigrants who are pursuing the American dream. Not difficult, not difficult at all. But Cato runs through the data here and they say the following, asylum seekers entering legally fell by 99.9% under President Trump. Refugees entering legally from abroad fell by 90% under President Trump. Immigrant visas for legal permanent residents fell by about 50%. Visas for fiancés and spouses of U.S. citizens fell by 65%. International student visas have fallen by 40%. H1B visas have fallen by at least 25%. H1B visas dramatically dropping. Legal entry cuts are now likely 2.5 times higher than illegal entries, says Cato, but that's because also illegal entries have been shut down to practically zero by the Trump administration. So these, by the way, yes, I voted for all of this and yes, these are all massive this is a massive series of wins by the Trump administration. But in a moment, I'm going to play for you a clip that kind of works against everything that the president is fighting for here and it comes right out of the mouth of the DHS secretary, Mark Wayne Mullen. Now, I will say, before I play this clip, I'll get to in just a moment. Before I play it, there's a lot of people who mouth the same words, who have expressed this bumper sticker view of our country for years and I think sometimes they don't actually know what they're expressing or what the phrase, what the purpose of the phrase is and that phrase is nation of immigrants, nation of immigrants. And I'm going to address this in just a moment what Mark Wayne Mullen said and why this is a poisonous notion for protecting our country. And I'll get to it in just a second here, all ahead on this edition of Vince. Okay, let's thank another one of our great sponsors, Quince is a great sponsor of our show and a great creator of wonderful clothing. This time of year is you're cleaning out the closet, spring cleaning. You start looking at what you need, you're changing out the like getting rid of the cold weather stuff, moving to the warmer stuff. And I'm looking in my closet and I keep coming back to the Quince stuff because everything just feels better, it's the fabrics, the fits and the pricing is great. The pricing actually makes a lot of sense. Quince makes high quality everyday essentials using premium materials like 100% European linen and they've got their insanely soft flow knit active wear, their men's linen pants and shirts are very lightweight, breathable, comfortable. They're the perfect liar for spring. And the best part Quince's prices are actually 50 to 60% less than similar brands. They work directly with ethical factories, they cut out the middlemen, you're paying for quality not markup. I really, really like my Quince stuff and I'm constantly reaching for Quince shirts out of my closet. I love them and they're breathable, comfortable and they look way more polished than you might expect without costing what quality linen usually does. Refresh your wardrobe with Quince.

I love my Helix mattress. You know, sleep didn't used to be this good for me. I used to be kind of restless at night and I wake up kind of in some pain. I didn't feel great. I thought, I really truly thought that it wasn't the mattress. It was just me. It was impossible for me to find the perfect mattress. All of that changed when Allison and I switched to our Helix mattress. And we've been sleeping on our Helix mattress now for a while and it has been a serious upgrade to our life. And one of the things I love most is the comfort and the balance. It's supportive enough to help my back, which I need, but it's still super comfortable. And I used to toss and turn now, not anymore. Not anymore. I'm getting beautiful deep sleep and I'm waking up each morning feeling very, very rested. You know, Helix has over 20 different mattress models and that's because people are different and you can take their online sleep quiz and it's going to match you up so nicely with the mattress that's going to change your life.

Thank you for giving me a great night's sleep and thank you for sponsoring the program. All right. So Mark Wayne Mullen, we played a clip for a moment earlier. You heard him say it. He used a, what I consider a very dangerous bumper sticker slogan in the United States and that is this idea that the United States is quote, a nation of immigrants. This guy's the DHS secretary and he should be trained out of this. Here's what he said last night on Fox. Cut three. Watch. Right. To, you know, qualify as a siloist. They take advantage of the United States' generosity, but the problem is, is that we want immigration. We want legal immigration. People that want to make the country stronger. We're a nation of immigrants. We understand that. The right kind of immigrants. We're not a nation of immigrants. We're a nation of settlers, adventurers, people who came here and built a country in a place where there was no country. Our ancestors, the people who built this place, built it. And one of the, you know, as we started the program today, I was talking about what our founders gave us, the Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, the constraints on government, our natural rights. We, if, if you start defraying the value of our founding by just simply suggesting that what makes us great is open borders, then you're diminishing our ability to think clearly about how we preserve what we've inherited. The use of the phrase nation of immigrants grooms the populace into believing that we don't deserve sovereignty, that we should just open our borders wide and allow anybody to pour in. And of course we shouldn't do that. So stop mindlessly repeating the phrase nation of immigrants. Now lots of good and decent people have repeated it through the years because they like what it says about America that we're generous and we are. We are very generous. But again, the phrase conditions people to believe that our sovereignty is not worth protecting. And so stop doing that. Stop it because it's a lie and it's a hurtful one. Yeah, we are a great country. Where did this phrase nation of immigrants come from, by the way? Where did it come from? You know, in the, it was expressed in the late 1800s, it was expressed a couple of times in like letters to the editor in American newspapers, it was sourced to there. But it was really popularized by John F. Kennedy in the late 1950s when he was then Senator John F. Kennedy. He wrote a pamphlet on behalf of the Anti-Defamation League, the ADL, called the Nation of Immigrants. And it was used as a justification to reform our entire immigration system to make it less restrictive and to essentially open our borders to the world. Then subsequently, in the 1960s, it was reissued as a book in 1964. This of course is after his death in 1963, after his assassination, reissued as a book in 1964. The book is entitled A Nation of Immigrants. And that book was used to help finally achieve passage of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965. So it was a huge political pressure campaign that was authored by and used by a very popular at the time and assassinated American President John F. Kennedy to kick wide open our borders by a progressive president, Lyndon B. Johnson. LBJ, who takes over after JFK, who is the one who signs into law, is the president of the United States of America, who takes over after JFK, who is the one who signs into law the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, kicks the doors open on the whole country. And a lot of the chaos that has ensued in our immigration system ever since was done under the pretext of, we're a nation of immigrants. Do you see how this happens, ladies and gentlemen? Do you see what I'm saying? How this all went down? In other words, your decency is exploited. Your kindness, your generosity is exploited in order to betray you. And that's led us to where we are today. And this goes back, John F. Kennedy's role in creating this nation of immigrants concept that has permeated much of the American political discourse over the last half century. It goes back to, for instance, here, let me pull it up here. This is a New York Times excerpt from August 4th of 1963 of John F. Kennedy's writings on the issue. Look at this. Nation of immigrants, those of you with me right now on rumble.com slash fans, you can see this. And they have John F. Kennedy saying, since the first settlers reached the New World, some 40 million people have migrated to America. And it's a whole piece about how the United States was built by immigrants, built by immigrants. The only people who are from here were the Native Americans. This is the concept that he pushed. Now, if you really wanted to address this topic honestly, if that's the way you viewed this, if you think that the founders of our system, the settlers, the pioneers, the people who came overseas on that unbelievable voyage across the Atlantic to settle the United States of America, if you're discounting them and saying, well, they're just immigrants like everybody else. Well, then wait a second. The so-called Native Americans are not native to the United States either. If you go far back enough, everybody quote, immigrated here. It just matters what your timeline is. The longer you stretch the timeline, the more people quote, migrated. They're ancestors, that is. Now, by the way, I'm not an immigrant to this country. I'm a Native born American. My ancestors, going back, let's see, four generations, they immigrated here, true, but I'm not an immigrant. So if you say we're a nation of immigrants, what role does that have for me? I didn't immigrate here. Did you? I mean, much of you in chat probably are Native born Americans. I know we've got some immigrants here, but this idea that we're a nation of immigrants, we're not. I was born here. This is my country. I didn't immigrate here and I'm proud to live here and I want to defend its integrity. I just want to remind you that these are concepts worth knowing and defending. They really are. There's a reason I started today with Clarence Thomas' great speech last night in Texas is because he's reminding us of our founding values. And every time we engage with these debates, every time you hear somebody sort of mindlessly repeat the talking points that have been imposed on us by the progressive left, you should work to defeat them. That is not who we are. We're a nation built by Americans for Americans and we should work to defend it. One of the ways in which we defend it is standing up for the rule of law, standing up for the rule of law. And that brings me to my next topic. The attacks on President Trump by the left, by the Intel community, by the deep state have been pretty profound, pretty aggressive through the years and you and I have discussed a lot of them. And this past week, Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, revealed a ton of information about how the 2019 impeachment of President Trump even began. And what we now know, thanks to the passage of time and a lot of the information we've learned through the years and clearly by what she declassified and released to the public, is that everything about the 2019 impeachment of President Trump for his phone call with Vladimir Zelensky was orchestrated, manufactured, created out of whole cloth in order to try and take down the duly elected President of the United States and thwart the will of the American people. Nobody involved with the whistleblower or anything else had a first hand, had first, any first hand knowledge of the President's phone call with Vladimir Zelensky. This was all, this was the rumor mill run amok designed to take down Trump. And Tulsi Gabbard revealed that there were two big players here who deserve a lot of ire and yes, she thinks criminal prosecution. One of them was the alleged whistleblower, the so-called whistleblower, who people believe to be, widely believed to be Eric Charamella, who to this very day is basically sitting in silence and not acknowledging the reality of this situation. The other is the head of the Intel Communities Inspector General Program, the IG at the time. And I want to play for you, this is these allegations here. Tulsi Gabbard has basically taken them and she's made a criminal referral to the United States Department of Justice. This broke last night. This is brand new information breaking last night. Tulsi Gabbard, who has been, it turns out an excellent director of national intelligence, has now made a criminal referral for both of these people to the Justice Department. Fox News with the reporting overnight, they were the first to get this. This was Brooke Singman with the story. She says the DNI, the ODNI has sent criminal referrals to the Justice Department for the XIG, excuse me here, my screen's all going crazy as we speak. What's wrong with this stupid website? One more. Let me see if I can let it up. The ODNI sends criminal referrals to DOJ for XIG, whistleblower tied to Trump impeachment. Exclusive, the office of the director of national intelligence has sent criminal referrals to the Justice Department for the whistleblower whose complaint helped trigger President Donald Trump's 2019 impeachment and for the former Intel community inspector general who notified Congress of the allegations. Fox reviewed the referrals sent to the Justice Department. The possible criminal activity concerns the circumstances described in the following congressional briefings. And then these were basically when the Intel community, IG, testified before Congress. That man was Michael Atkinson. He's pictured on screen here, rumble.com slash Vince if you're watching the show right now. There he is. He's been referred for criminal prosecution here as well. Listen to Talsy Gabbard. She was on last night with Katie Pavlich over a news nation describing the weaponization of our government against the American people. Watch. And lastly, the inspector general himself. And this is really such a violation of public trust and the responsibility that we expect all of our inspector generals to have in that he didn't conduct a full investigation. He didn't even ask to see the transcript of the phone call between President Trump and Zelensky. And he admitted to Congress that he didn't have any first. He did not have any evidence that he was relying on. He had made a criminal referral to the Department of Justice based on this so-called whistleblowers complaint. The Department of Justice came back and said there's nothing here. This inspector general then went to Congress anyway and presented to them all of this coming down to the bottom line of which this was a partisan political attempt once again to undermine the will of the American people who elected Donald Trump as President of the United States. Yeah. So now she's referred them directly to the United States Department of Justice for criminal prosecution. I want to remind you of some of the circumstances here. There is a well-reported already established grand jury in paneled in South Florida as we speak. And so this is what you and I think are paying a lot of attention to. Certainly I have been and I know much of this audience has been. We keep talking about it. On this grand conspiracy case being generated in South Florida, it's resulted in hundreds, you heard me correctly, hundreds of subpoenas being sent out to people including John Brennan, the former CIA director, and James Comey, the former FBI director, demanding information from them on their roles in a grand conspiracy against the President of the United States and the American people. That's where I think the energy is going to be generated here. So in this criminal referral that we just saw from Tulsi Gabbard, if it's of value to any investigation that's going on right now, one would assume it be of value to the grand conspiracy case in South Florida. That's just an assumption on my part. We'll keep our eyes on it, but clearly the energy continues to bring these guys to justice. And now we're looking at a former intelligence community inspector general and a so-called whistleblower who have just been flagged as deserving of full-blown criminal investigations. That was by the director of national intelligence. Susan, a great position to know. Now, Ms. Now, you know that network Ms. Now? It's basically a network for lesbian left-wingers. It's in total shambles over this. Here's Ms. Now reporting on this development last night. Watch. Just moments ago, MS Now has just confirmed director of national intelligence Tulsi Gabbard referred the whistleblower whose complaint led to the first impeachment of President Trump and the inspector general who deemed their complaint credible for possible criminal prosecution by the Trump Justice Department. The move comes days after Gabbard released documents alleging a conspiracy behind Trump's first impeachment. She looks upset. You look upset. What are you so upset about? Oh, that's funny. Oh, that's funny. Dami26 writes in the chat. In case the Bungino report hasn't noticed, Bungino report is on the channel on which we're broadcasting, of course. MAGA doesn't give a crap about criminal referrals. We want prosecutions, which this administration has made perfectly clear they do not have the balls to do. Now, Dami26 is hilariously wrong and angsty about all of this, about a couple of things. One of them is this idea that you and I don't want criminal prosecutions. Of course we do. Of course we do. That's the whole reason I keep talking about the damn thing. We want criminal prosecutions. We want justice. Otherwise, I would basically just ignore these stories. I'd be like, yeah, let's move on to other things. No, don't move on. No, I'm still stuck on this because we desperately want this. And it's also why we're tracking with such sincerity what's going on in South Florida with the hopes that it will actually result in real criminal prosecutions. Now, has the Trump Justice Department prosecuted Democrats, high-profile ones? Yes. They've prosecuted James Comey. They've prosecuted Letitia James. They've prosecuted LaMonica McIver. They've prosecuted Sheila Cherfelis McCormick. These are sitting Democrat Congresswoman. They've prosecuted Cato Bagazzela, the crazy Democrat who was running for Congress in Illinois. Yes, they're prosecuting Democrats. Here's what they're running up against Dami26, assuming that you're in any way being authentic in your concern. Here's what they're running up against. You're running up against a Senate which has a deranged blue slip process which precludes us from having U.S. attorneys who are in a good position to be able to bring these prosecutions. That's one. That's a huge impediment. If you have problems with that, take it up with John Thune and Chuck Grassley like we've been doing instead of just bitching about it. And then the other thing is that we've got problems with federal judges who are not doing their jobs, who are acting like complete radical lunatics, oftentimes as a result of the same demented and destructive blue slip process which is not in any way a law or even a rule of the United States Senate. It's merely a gentleman's agreement where at least one party doesn't have any gentleman. It's insanity. It's insanity. So the question is, is the Bongino report, the channel on which we're again, we're broadcasting, fighting for justice? Hell yeah. Get with the program. Maybe this is the first time you're here. Welcome aboard. But yes, we need to see these guys prosecuted. We need to see them prosecuted. Don't give up. Keep up the pressure. Keep up the pressure. That's the key here. Ms. Nau is in shambles. I love that. I love that they're upset. Another DCU, another good U.S. attorney for the president, is Jeanine Pirro. She is asking for help now. She'd like some help. She would like anybody who has information about one former congressman who is accused of abusing women on a routine basis. She'd like victims to come forward please so that he can be prosecuted. Cut seven. Watch this. If you hear about someone who was allegedly drugging, choking, raping victims who was licked in this district for a significant period of time, I would expect there would be victims who might have information. What I think is really important right now is for anyone who has any relevant information or has any complaint as it relates to the kinds of complaints we're hearing about with Eric Stalwell needs to come forward to my office. They need to know that it will be confidential that I have assistant U.S. attorneys who are trained on how to handle these cases. Some of them are very trauma inducing for the victims. We have all kinds of resources. We partner with other agencies. I want potential victims and witnesses and anyone who has any information to come to my office or call a hotline which is 202-252-0809. Yeah, all right. We're taking tips. We're taking tips on Swalwell. Send them our way. Please. We'd love more information. Suddenly now that Democrats want to talk about it, now they've uncorked their blackmail file. Well, that's fine. Why don't you bring it forward for criminal prosecution? I do love Cash Patel, by the way. Cash Patel, the FBI director, is a couple days ago when Eric Swalwell was insisting, this is all fake. These are lies. They're spreading vicious smears about me. Cash Patel put up a message and he goes, oh, if that's the case, come talk to the FBI. We'll help you investigate. I don't think Eric Swalwell is going to do that. I don't think he's going to take cash up on his offer. Very generous offer by Cash Patel. Really nice of him to express that. Actually, we just got new information about Swalwell and Ruben Gallego. Gallego, Gallego, pantalones and fuego. Eric Swalwell, Ruben Gallego, according to the Daily Mail, they blew a bunch of their own campaign funds, meaning it was not their own money. It was donor money. They blew campaign funds at Gallego's second wedding in Puerto Rico. His second wedding in Puerto Rico. Because remember, he dumped his first wife when she was like days away from giving birth and then he married a 25-year-old the next year when he was about 40. So when he was marrying her, they had this big wedding in Puerto Rico and they spent campaign funds to do it. Yeah, here's the Daily Mail report. Bombshell records reveal Eric Swalwell and Ruben Gallego splurged campaign cash in Puerto Rico during Island Wedding. Oh, how nice. They had an Island Wedding. They were at a Puerto Rican resort. They were both at resorts during the same weekend. Federal Election Commission records show. Swalwell's political operation made a pair of expenditures at the Hyatt Regency Grand Reserve Puerto Rico totaling $1,522, June 7th of 2021. An Instagram post by a wedding guest reviewed by the Daily Mail tagged that hotel as the location of Gallego's wedding on that same date. Gallego's political operation spent $2,000 at the nearby Fairmont L San Juan the very same day. That is what you might call forbidden. That is prohibited. Prohibited to be dado. That's not allowed. You can't do that. And they were doing that. So Gallego, Gallego's try to duck for cover is like, I'm not, I didn't do anything wrong. I didn't know anything about this. I didn't know anything about Swalwell being a scumbag. It turns out you're a scumbag. You're constantly running around with him engaged in all sorts of sinister activity. And it's catching up to you. I told you this was going to happen. I told you this was happening and it's going to keep happening. In fact, Swalwell and Gallego, they came up yesterday, old fricking frack. They came up yesterday at the White House press conference when Jack Pesabic asked Caroline Levitt all about it. Watch Cut 8. One word for Caroline as well as the administration in general, if I may. This past Saturday, I published a video of former, now former, Representative Eric Swalwell in bed. The President said in Las Vegas, while Eric Swalwell was in Las Vegas in this video, I'm told according to geotagging, this scandal has erupted now. Users coming forward, many others coming forward, as well as questions regarding his extremely close relationship with Arizona Senator Ruben Gallego. And I want to know if the administration had any comment on the fact that Senator Gallego seemed to be very vocal about wanting the release of the Epstein files. And yet when questions come to his own involvement with Eric Swalwell, he doesn't seem to want to provide anything. Yeah, look, I think the accusations and allegations against former Representative Swalwell are despicable and disgusting. I think it's also quite plausible, as you point out, Jack, that there were many other Democrats in this town on Capitol Hill who knew about his, perhaps, illegal behavior, certainly his disgusting and inappropriate behavior. And why were they silent for so long? I think those are questions that must be raised of these sitting representatives, including Mr. Gallego. And I hope that the journalists in this room will do their jobs. And the journalists on Capitol Hill will do their jobs to ask Democrats in power how they knew about such despicable behavior from one of their elected representatives for so long, but never said or did anything about it. So that's what we hope to see as far as the White House and the president is concerned. Yeah, wait a second. You knew everything about this? You never told anybody? Yeah, well, yeah, because they were sitting on it as a giant blackmail file that they could deploy at the moment they needed to destroy him, which is exactly what they did. Although they're running around acting like they're completely shocked. I'm just shocked. I'm shocked. I didn't know there was gambling going on here. Here's Adam Schiff, claiming he's shocked and betrayed about Eric Swalwell. Watch. Do you still have questions about who knew what when about his behavior? Well, I don't know what others may have known. I can tell you that I certainly didn't know that he was involved in any conduct along the lines of what has come out since Friday. And if I had, I wouldn't have gone near him with a 10 foot pole. I think there are many people in Congress as shocked as I am. Maybe I'm just not plugged into what others are if they've heard more. But I just feel shocked and betrayed and sickened. And I think a sense of grief about all of this. But my paramount feeling is that I'm grateful these women came forward. I'm grateful that they did so when they did. It prevented our state from making a potentially terrible mistake. And certainly if I had known what these women have to say, I wouldn't have gone near him with 10 foot pole, as I said. Yeah, when is Adam Schiff ever lied to us? Other than constantly? Adam Schiff? I love this, by the way. I love that these guys are attacking Swalwell because, you know, Swalwell's got dirt on them. This is great. Swalwell's revenge is going to be wonderful. I'm encouraging you, buddy. Mount your revenge, please, Eric Swalwell. Mount your revenge against these people. Tell us everything you know about Nancy Pelosi. Tell us everything you know about Adam Schiff. Heck, tell us everything you know about Ted Rue. Here's Ted Rue saying he knew nothing, nothing about Eric Swalwell. I had no idea until I read this San Francisco Chronicle article when it was published and I believe Representative Swalwell did the right thing by resigning. I knew absolutely nothing about Swalwell. Well, you're lying. You're lying to us. Ted Rue is a ridiculous figure. But I do hope Swalwell gets his revenge. It'll be good for the rest of us if he does. Finally, the Washington Post today has a hilarious headline. I'll leave you with a joke from the Washington Post. This is great. This is wonderful. This is the spit take of the day. Representative Eric Swalwell's fall left many asking how someone who was dogged by persistent rumors of inappropriate behavior toward women could have risen so high and so fast in a party that says it supports women's rights. Yeah, it's just what a brain buster. How did that happen? How did that happen? How did Eric Swalwell rise without any public scrutiny about his disgusting behavior? What news outlet could have assisted with his undeserved rise? What publication could have been dedicated to telling the truth about what was going on in Washington, D.C.? Which one could have done that? Ladies and gentlemen, it is always so good to spend some time with you each day. Appreciate you for being here. I'll be back with you again tomorrow.
