Chapter 3: How has the FBI changed under Dan Bongino's leadership?

118.308 - 141.437 Vince

Well, we got some big news, don't we? Yesterday, broken as usual by the president of the United States. Speculation has been swirling that one gentleman called Dan Bongino might be leaving the Trump administration soon. The deputy director of the FBI, lots of reports this week claiming that that was coming potentially, the rumors about all of this. Well, forget the rumors.

0

141.478 - 148.475 Vince

Let's just hear from the president of the United States. Here's what he had to say yesterday standing on a tarmac, cut nine, the president.

0

149.138 - 153.175 Dan Bongino

Dan did a great job. I think he wants to go back to his show.

0

Chapter 4: What successes did the Trump administration achieve this year?

155.332 - 181.17 Vince

dan did a great job i think he wants to go back to his show well that heavily implies what comes next and sure enough the the uh the the man himself dan bongino followed that announcement by the president shortly thereafter and he made it official uh here's the message we got from dan yesterday this came to us around 5 16 p.m eastern time uh dan says i will be leaving my position with the fbi

0

181.15 - 203.504 Vince

In January, I want to thank President Trump, Attorney General Bondi, and Director Patel for the opportunity to serve with purpose. Most importantly, I want to thank you, my fellow Americans, for the privilege to serve you. God bless America and all those who defend her. After Dan made it official, Kash Patel jumped in as well.

0

203.644 - 222.098 Vince

This is the FBI director saying that Dan is the best partner I could have asked for. in helping restore this FBI. He brought critical reforms to make the organization more efficient, led the successful summer heat op, served as the people's voice for transparency, and delivered major breakthroughs in long unsolved cases like the pipe bomb investigation.

0

222.118 - 227.917 Vince

And that's only a small part of the work that he went about every single day delivering for America.

0

Chapter 5: How did recent economic stats surprise experts?

228.538 - 246.274 Vince

He not only completed his mission, he far exceeded it. We will miss him, but I'm thankful he accepted the call to serve. Our country is better and safer for it. We will miss him, says the FBI director. By the way, I know that he's not alone.

0

246.314 - 268.195 Vince

I've already talked to sources this morning telling me that they too will miss Dan Bongino inside of that FBI, that he has been a patriotic force for good and he's affected a lot of positive change. This is a very difficult agency, a very difficult agency to try and clean up a catastrophic mess that has been created by the American left's many abuses

0

268.175 - 283.591 Vince

Of an agency that's dedicated to federal law enforcement, or at least it should be, Instead, it's become a tyrannical force for evil over the years. And Cash and Dan, really two of the best to even go in there to possibly do anything about this.

0

Chapter 6: What security concerns were raised by Trump regarding Brown University?

284.493 - 299.953 Vince

Look, I know this year there's been a lot of people trying to crap all over these guys, trying to suggest that they somehow are compromised or that they had failed us or whatever. As you know, if you've been with me all year, you know that I've consistently said that this is just a bunch of nonsense.

0

299.933 - 320.912 Vince

These guys are patriots and they're swimming upstream in a world that desperately wants them to fail, desperately wants them to fail. And they've got a lot of successes to show for their time there. I'm not relying on the legacy media for this. They lie to us consistently. The reality is Dan is leaving at a time where he's got a lot to be proud of, candidly.

0

320.892 - 336.376 Vince

Remember, earlier this year, there was some chatter that maybe his differences of opinion with Pam Bondi were going to lead to him leaving the FBI. That was very early this year that those stories were coming up. And at some point in the very near future, you're going to be able to hear from Dan.

0

Chapter 7: What were the main points from Trump's recent speech?

336.396 - 357.312 Vince

He'll be able to describe all of this. When that was happening, I remember thinking at the time, and I think I conveyed to you at the time as well, it just would not be a good time for Dan to leave. Dan needs to leave when he's got a bunch of wins under his belt, where he can leave with a lot of points on the scoreboard. And what does the scoreboard look like right now?

0

357.753 - 363.943 Vince

Well, the answer to that is Operation Summer Heat. Operation Summer Heat was an epic success.

0

363.923 - 387.197 Vince

refocusing of the fbi on violent crime in america's cities everywhere they arrested thousands of violent criminals at levels never never seen before they got the fbi off of the terrible disastrous tyrannical behavior of the past where it was targeting parents who go to school board meetings and catholics who go to latin masses and people who sing church hymns outside of abortion mills

0

387.177 - 412.678 Vince

that was not happening anymore that has not been happening anymore under the leadership of kash patel and dan bongino instead they've focused the fbi on its actual mission catching the bad guys and boy they've caught a lot of them they've gone after the vicious 764 network getting child predators off the streets they've been rescuing children by the thousands from horrific conditions they've been going in they've been saving them

0

412.658 - 437.08 Vince

they have found the secrets inside of the fbi literally rooms filled with secrets that the fbi had been keeping from the public about its tyrannical abuses of us the american people and then they've exposed all of that these guys have remained sincere throughout it and the other big thing obviously the big item that you and i have been talking about at some length in the past week is

437.718 - 438.64 Vince

He caught the pipe bomber.

Chapter 8: How is the current political climate affecting American society?

439.302 - 448.943 Vince

Dan went in with a mission. We're gonna catch this guy. And he told the people around him, show me the case files, open everything up and you will catch this man.

0

449.007 - 473.867 Vince

that's what they did he worked with you know ed martin the guy who is inside the justice department former u.s attorney now in washington dc in dogged pursuit of the pipe bomber and that story just concluded with an arrest and an indictment a massive massive win after all these years of scant information on what's going on in that case

0

473.847 - 497.948 Vince

so yeah no dan has had a very productive and successful year they've fired a lot of people they've reassigned a lot of people they've worked to clean up an fbi that really has been a complete dumpster fire truly and that's the other part of this think about what cash and dan have inherited these guys are the inheritors of an agency with one of the single worst reputations for in the american public ever

0

499.244 - 519.566 Vince

So of course people are gonna express skepticism and doubt directed at the agency. And these guys are gonna catch some strays as a result. They knew that going in. And I know, knowing Dan Bongino, that he's always considered himself in this role to be a public servant. He knows of course that there would be arrows that were launched in his direction. It's part of the job.

0

519.646 - 526.534 Vince

Anybody who raises their hand to serve the country should expect that the rest of them are gonna hold them accountable.

526.514 - 547.902 Vince

makes total sense actually it is literally part of the job but he's leaving and he should be leaving with his head held high a big announcement from dan bongino very cool to see he's coming back which brings me to the coming back portion of this i want to talk about that with you because my guess is you're very excited about what comes next Well, me too.

548.562 - 574.51 Vince

Let me just confirm a basic element to this. Dan is leaving the FBI. You heard him say it. And I'll just tell you that he's leaving in early January. That is true. What comes next? Well, that's, of course, up to Dan to announce. Dan will be clearly sharing a lot more than just this tweet that we got from him yesterday. And I'm very excited to see what he has to say on the subject.

574.49 - 594.818 Vince

but there's no doubt that dan gets behind a microphone again that dan talks to you again that dan in the words of the president of the united states i think he's pretty substantially tipped his hand as to what comes next that dan wants to return to his show the president says which is great. This is something that I've been super excited about all year long.

595.239 - 612.985 Vince

I mean, I just want to remind people, and perhaps there is someone in this audience who came to us in this intervening year who didn't realize this, but the audience that I'm speaking to now is almost entirely an audience that was built by Dan Bongino. Of course, this is Dan's audience, the Bongino Army. The Bongino Army is awesome.
