I did. I did. Part of me, I just can't still. It's fun watching them squirm, but it's kind of bad for the country that they're in the positions they're in. I'm just going to remind you. Extremely bad for the country. Not to end on a downer note. I know we're ending on an upbeat note, but I just look at those.

The idea that FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino, that those words have to cross our lips in that order. I can't quite live with that.

I hear you. I must add that this morning at the press briefing, just in case you thought that maybe once the people heard from Cash and Dan that that would be the final word on the matter. Unfortunately not. In the new media seat where Andrew Egger once sat, they brought in a gentleman named Zero Hedge. It's funny. If you've seen this guy on Twitter, his Twitter picture... Is it still like that?

Oh, yeah. His Twitter picture... Is it maybe from the movie Fight Club? I don't know. We need Sunday Bunch to tell me what movie it's from, but it's an image of a shirtless, muscled man with like a little bit of blood coming down the middle of his body showing how tough this guy is. I've never seen the person's face. I've seen his Twitter account.

There he was in the Andrew Egger chair in the new media chair in the briefing room. And he looks like the biggest dork, like the biggest just total dweeb. Couldn't even comb his hair. I don't think he's ever done a bicep curl. And there he was asking our press secretary, Carolyn Leavitt, about the Clinton body count and how Jeffrey Epstein was maybe the most famous Clinton-related suicide.

And he points to allegations of a blackmail ring with potential ties to the Israeli government. I think it might be part of the anti-Semitism campaign that the administration is going after. But this guy didn't qualify for that, I guess. There we are. And it feels like we're in a total Looney Tunes world where the FBI director and the deputy FBI director have to be like, no, this stuff isn't true.

And then the next day anyway, they put a guy in the briefing room to be like, well, you never know. And Carolyn Levin, instead of saying – This is an insane question. This is not true. I refer you to Kash Patel's interview yesterday. She said, no, you know, Pam Bondi and the DOJ is looking into it. Next question. It's a pretty sad state of affairs, Bill. Not good. Not good.

We're supposed to end with an upbeat note, but... Okay, how about this? Is this an upbeat note? Trump wants to investigate Bruce Springsteen? Yes, that's good. That's another bleep from the weekend. How much did Kamala Harris pay Bruce Springsteen for his poor performance during her campaign as president? I'm going to call for a major investigation into this matter.
