The “This Is a Gardening Show” host criticizes today’s comedy podcast hosts for pandering to big-name guests: “That’s not the job of a court jester”Zach Galifianakis isn’t afraid to “tell powerful people no,” he declared in a recent interview on Conan O’Brien’s eponymous podcast, remembering specifically that he threatened to cancel then-Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s 2016 “Between Two Ferns” interview after her team demanded he not ask about her email server scandal. “I could tell she didn’t want to be there, and I totally get that. I get it. But before we had set that whole thing up, they...

Former FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino revealed he found a "mother lode" of documents tied to the "Russiagate" investigation that he alleges were meant to be destroyed. Speaking on the "Hang Out with Sean Hannity" podcast, Bongino said what he witnessed behind the scenes of "Crossfire Hurricane" — the FBI's probe into potential collusion between President Donald Trump and Russia — was far more sinister than he anticipated. "I thought I knew Russiagate," Bongino told Hannity. "It was like 10 times worse." Bongino described finding a "burn bag," which is typically used to incinerate sensitive documents for security purposes. He...

Lena Dunham is walking back her support for former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election. Dunham’s new memoir, Famesick, hit stands on April 14, and in her own words, she reflects on campaigning for Clinton. “I hit the ground running just a day or so after Girls wrapped, campaigning for Hillary Clinton in more American states than I’d ever been to in my life,” she writes in the book, according to the Daily Mail. “And now I know, I wish I’d just posted a ‘BERNIE’ sign in my window instead,” she explained, referring to former Vermont...

From fake impeachments to battles with a KGB-created religious movement, Trump is engaged in a “to the political death” battle with the left. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard just released another batch of declassified documents that lay bare how the 2019 Trump impeachment was built on second-hand hearsay, anonymous tips, and a coordinated narrative pushed by intelligence officials and Democrat operatives. At the same time, we’ve witnessed the Democrats’ sudden, open allegiance with a Chicago Pope. The impeachment wasn’t real, and Trump’s not engaged in a religious war. Instead, both fights—the attacks at home and in the Vatican—are the...

Dick Morris has finally confirmed what many people have long suspected: Bill Clinton, while sitting in the Oval Office, seriously entertained the idea of divorcing Hillary — and he had his longtime political advisor run the polls to find out if he could survive it politically. Morris, who advised Clinton for years, as far back as his 1970s gubernatorial campaigns in Arkansas, appeared on Newsmax and dropped a bombshell that has somehow received far too little attention. When host Rob Finnerty asked Morris to confirm the rumor, the answer was blunt. "Yes, actually several times," Morris said. "It was a...

DNI Tulsi Gabbard Exposes Conspiracy Used By Congress To Impeach President Trump IC Inspector General Atkinson aggressively advanced a so-called “whistleblower’s” narrative, using a witness who co-authored the 2017 Russia Hoax, that was used as the basis for Trump’s impeachment WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard releases never-before-seen documents exposing a coordinated effort by elements within the Intelligence Community (IC), including a former Inspector General (IG), to manufacture a conspiracy that was used as the basis to impeach President Trump in 2019.

It’s been a long six and a half years since the first sham impeachment of Trump, but the story isn’t over. rom the beginning, the 2019 impeachment coup against President Donald Trump was a hoax riddled with Democrat collusion and deep state deception. Newly released transcripts of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence’s closed-door interviews of then-Inspector General of the Intelligence Community (ICIG) Michael Atkinson give even more details about how intelligence officials and anti-Trump politicians worked together in an attempt to charge the sitting president with abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. The testimonies, recorded in September...

Democrats find themselves with a deplorable dilemma – whether to reach into their no-talent “bench” for a 2028 standard bearer or turn to the 78–year-old party matriarch for yet another comeback bid. Saddled with an aging constituency of white, privileged, female boomers who fill up “No Kings” rallies, Democrats are in such disarray that some are looking to Hillary Clinton to come to the rescue. The former Secretary of State is coming to New Hampshire next month to headline a major fundraising dinner – fueling speculation about her White House intentions and generational complaints from progressives who view her as...

Robert Mueller is dead, but his toxic legacy lives on in the destroyed lives of the innocent victims targeted by the Russia collusion probe that bears his name. To understand why President Trump had no kind words for the former FBI director when he died over the weekend at age 81, you have to understand the human toll on the president and dozens of his friends and allies.Who knows whether Mueller, who had Parkinson’s, was in command of all his faculties when he was appointed special counsel at age 72? But the deep state evildoers on his team knew exactly...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton just dropped some new merchandise referencing a line from a hearing related to the Epstein files. Upon learning that Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert leaked a photo of her there, she stormed out, expressing that she didn’t care if the panel held her in contempt. “You can hold me in contempt from now until the cows come home,” she said.

Bill and Hillary Clinton had to get hauled in to testify by the House Oversight Committee about Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Bill denied knowing anything, but his hands shook throughout his deposition. While he was certainly competent, he couldn't remember a lot.(snip) But he didn't seem in great physical shape.(snip) However, when Bill and Hillary were out on the street in New York City on Tuesday, they were walking around after an event with what looked like the Secret Service and others in their coterie. There was even a woman there who looked a bit like Huma Abedin, but...

A boutique Manhattan condo building that drew celebrity buyers including Chelsea Clinton, NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon and Jennifer Lopez also had an unlikely early investor: convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Documents from the recently released Epstein files reveal that the disgraced, and deceased, financier quietly backed the luxury conversion of 21 E. 26th St. in NoMad, a historic property overlooking Madison Square Park later marketed as the Whitman. The five-story Neo-Georgian building was transformed into just four full-floor residences and a duplex penthouse, a design that helped lure a roster of high-profile buyers when sales launched in 2013, according to the...

Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., claimed that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was "unhinged" during part of her closed-door testimony to the House Oversight Committee on Thursday. "I asked her a very pointed question, and you'll see that in the transcript and the video that comes out, and you'll see how she responded as well, screaming," Mace told reporters on Friday morning. Asked to elaborate, she repeated the word again when telling reporters, "I hope that President Clinton is less unhinged today than his wife was yesterday. You'll see it." (snip) "Yesterday's deposition with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton spent six hours testifying before the House Oversight Committee on Thursday. She told lawmakers she has no new information about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein or his associate Ghislaine Maxwell. Clinton criticized the handling of the investigation, saying Republicans are focusing on the wrong people. The session took place in Chappaqua, New York, where the Clintons have a home. It came ahead of a planned deposition of former President Bill Clinton, scheduled for Friday. Both Clintons have repeatedly denied any involvement in Epstein’s crimes. The hearings have also drawn attention to Ted Waitt, a...

'I don't know how many times I had to say I did not know Jeffrey Epstein. I never went to his island. I never went to his homes,' Hillary said after her testimony on Thursday. 'It then got, at the end, quite unusual because I started being asked about UFOs and a series of questions about Pizza-gate, one of the most vile bogus conspiracy theories that was propagated on the internet.' Pizza-gate is a debunked conspiracy theory that claimed a pedophilia ring involving high-ranking Democratic Party officials was operating out of the basement of a Washington, DC pizza parlor. Bill...

Excerpts. ...Clinton is telling lawmakers, "As I stated in my sworn declaration on January 13, I had no idea about their criminal activities."... ..."I do not recall ever encountering Mr. Epstein. I never flew on his plane or visited his island homes or offices. I have nothing to add to that," her remarks state. "Like every decent person, I have been horrified by what we have learned about their crimes. It's unfathomable that Mr. Epstein initially got a slap on the wrist in 2008, which allowed him to continue his predatory practices for another decade."

Appearing Thursday on Morning Joe, MS NOW’s Ali Vitali conceded there are “valid questions” about Bill Clinton’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein — enough to justify a House Oversight deposition. But the only connection Vitali mentioned? “He appears in photos.”Left unmentioned was what ABC News has reported: Bill Clinton was listed on 26 Epstein flight legs — though some were segments of the same international trips. Still, 26 entries in the logs. Not one. Not “a couple.” Twenty-six. Morning Joe viewers would never have known it. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.
