Folks, we've got a ton to get to today. Did the former FBI director threaten President Trump's life? Plus, the Supreme Court is deciding on birthright citizenship and nationwide injunctions, and President Trump is finally leaving the Middle East. And we interview the probable next president of Romania. But first, I was going to do an all-new ad read for my brand new show, Ben After Dark, premiering tonight on DW Plus exclusively for our members. But instead, our unoriginal and profoundly lazy team decided to just recycle what I said on Monday. So, Here's that. Or, you know, a trailer. Enjoy or don't. It's happening whether you like it or not. This Friday night, Ben After Dark returns. Why, hello! And now it's not just a terrible segment. It's a full-blown disaster. It is great to be here, Ben. That's right. We took a perfectly short, manageable late-night bit and we turned it into a full-length show. I'm sure it is. Why? Because no one asked us to. And that felt like the right reason. Which makes sense.
Now exclusively for Daily Wire Plus members, Ben After Dark delivers more of everything. More uncensored takes. Oh my God, that's rough. More cultural chaos. Have you seen Lena Dunham? Unvetted questions from celebrities who should know better. And more segments that probably should not exist. I know, we have a professional writing staff. This week, we ask Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee if he knows about Bill Belichick's new girlfriend. And everybody else is glaring at her, not Bill Belichick. I found out if America actually has talent. What is the clapping guy going to do? Like, where is that useful? And someone let a mystery guest ask me whatever was on their mind. Totally unfiltered. So nothing about the Declaration of Independence or the Territorial Incorporation Doctrine. Oh, and there's a brand new Ben Destroys because it's either this or I start throwing things at my TV. There are 330 million people and that was the best we came up with. It's the all new, definitively worse, absolutely more Ben After Dark. Friday night only at DailyWirePlus.com. Only for members.
You're welcome. Don't miss the all-new Ben After Dark tonight at 7.30 p.m. Eastern Time only at Daily Wire Plus. Lower your expectations. Also, do you hear drums in the distance? You can own a piece of Daily Wire history at dailywire.com. What am I talking about? I'm talking about this. You remember Elizabeth Warren, Chief Warren. The six-and-a-half-inch, finely crafted resin statuette is a scale replica of the legendary monument that towers over the Daily Wire set. Word has it she is one 1,024th authentic, but 100% hilarious. and to scale. Perfect for your desk, bookshelf, or the mantle of your teepee, longhouse, or other traditional dwelling. Limited quantities available at dailywire.com slash shop. All righty.
So controversy arises from random areas of the political spectrum these days. Do you remember James Comey? James Comey was the former FBI director. He was the FBI director who presented the so-called Steele dossier to President Trump. And then that Steele dossier just happened to leak into public view. That was the one that suggested that President Trump wasn't just a Russian cat's paw, that he was actually having affairs with prostitutes in Moscow and and all this sort of crazy stuff. And Comey presented that to Trump, and then magically, it just emerged in the press very soon afterward, the news hook being that Comey had presented it to President Trump. James Comey, of course, was also the FBI director who led Hillary Clinton off the hook for mishandling of classified documents, a precedent that would then be used for, as it turns out, pretty much every subsequent president who... It now appears that everyone is allowed to just mishandle classified documents because James Comey deliberately misread a statute to let Hillary Clinton off the hook.
But then, right before the election, also announced that there was more of an investigation into Hillary Clinton mishandling classified information, leading Democrats to believe that he threw the election to Donald Trump. So, needless to say, he was a very, very bad FBI director. Soup to nuts, awful FBI director. Well, in his post-FBI director career...
