Bongino’s Appointment at the FBI Means No Prisoners Taken

By J Robert Smith

On Monday, we learned that Dan Bongino was named deputy director at the FBI. He’ll report to Kash Patel, who was confirmed by the Senate last week. Patel and Bongino will make a dynamic duo. Yep, just like Batman and Robin. The lawbreakers at the FBI should be lawyering up – if they haven’t done so already.

In nominating Patel and appointing Bongino, Trump has kept another promise. He’s going outside of DC’s blue suits for these critical jobs. Patel and Bonigino have a simple mission: Clean out the FBI and make it a bona fide federal law enforcement agency tasked with pursuing real bad guys, like cartel honchos, drug gangs, spies, white collar criminals, and assorted homegrown bad guys.

The FBI is riddled with corruption. The worst of it started at the top and filtered down through the ranks. Former directors James Comey and Chris Wray were complicit in the corruption. And it wasn’t garden variety corruption, like bad cops taking payoffs and shaking down drug dealers. It’s political corruption, in that the FBI served as a strongarm for Democrats and the DC establishment. They’d become a version of the East German Stasi. The FBI went after the establishment’s enemies, most conspicuously, Donald Trump.

It can’t be stressed enough how dangerous it is for a law enforcement agency – guys with guns – acting as the cat’s paw for powerful political interests in Washington, D.C. The FBI wasn’t just loosed on Trump and his circles, but on people who peacefully oppose abortion. Sending a SWAT team to knockdown pro-life advocate Mark Houck’s door at the crack of dawn in January 2023, terrorizing his children, demonstrated the level of thuggery that Wray and his deputies were willing to permit. To his immense credit, Trump has pardoned 23 pro-life protestors. Congressional Republicans need to repeal the vile FACE Act, which grants the DoJ and FBI the power to prosecute peaceful pro-lifers.

Bongino’s pedigree is impressive. He has a bachelor’s degree in psychology and an MBA. He’s run for Congress three times, coming close to being elected once. His five-day a week radio show and podcast are category leaders. He’s also a successful entrepreneur and investor (he has a stake in Rumble, notably).

Most importantly, Bongino is no stranger to law enforcement. He was an NYPD officer for seven years and a U.S. Secret Service agent for nine years. Notably, as a Secret Service agent, he provided protection for Barack Obama.

Patel and Bongino are kick ass guys. Their tenures at the FBI won’t be about cutting deals and trimming. Expect long overdue, wholesale changes. If they succeed, it’ll prove a brighter day for our rights and liberties. And a safer day for us. But a bad day for the bad guys.

It Don’t Come Easy, Kamala

Forget about all the smog that corporate media is belching. Kamala Harris is still a ditz. Her sidekick, Tim Walz, is a progressive Minnesota Fats. He’s all about the hustle. He’s a guy who stole valor thinking he could trade it for a beer. The Kamala that we’ve come to know is being memory-holed — or so our hubristic betters hope. For them, like The Fly, something new is aborning. Spinning sell-able narratives depends first on the old Kamala disappearing.

Corporate media’s pollsters are hired to massage numbers as needed. Number massaging is crucial. Kamala vying with Trump in the polls — in fact, leading him by a tittle in this or that battleground state sample — is necessary to bolster whatever narratives her handlers confect. It’s self-reinforcing. Those tight polls also serve as mighty good cover when ballot-counting starts in garden spots like Philly and Detroit.

Blank slate Kamala can be filled-in as perky but not cackling. She’s a woman who bakes, not barks. She strained her widdle eyes studying the southern border for nearly four years, and now she’s got an idea: she’ll close it. She’ll eat Walz’s “white guy tacos” to be a good sport. She’s Florida from Good Times until the Indian vote matters, then she’ll flip to some Bollywood persona.

How Dark Money Could Harm Trump in 2024

By J Robert Smith

Pennsylvania just had off-year elections. They weren’t for high-profile offices. That made them un-sexy. But the results of those contests offer clear warning shots for Trump and Republicans in 2024.

A state supreme court seat was filled along slews of lesser judgeships. County offices and school boards in some places were filled, too.

The Democrats did well, too well. Much of that is attributable to “dark money.” That’s money from sources where the donors are generally anonymous. Dark money involves a lot of big dollar contributors (as in multimillionaires and billionaires) giving huge chunks of cash to national groups who, in turn, target contests in states. The money is used not only to boost Democrat – most often “progressive” – candidates, but to run negative campaigns against Republicans.

This November in Pennsylvania, dark money made significant differences in contests that most voters pay scant attention to. Yet, the mostly local offices targeted serve as building blocks for bigger offices. They’re foundational, so critical in their ways.

If Trump and Republicans aren’t fretting now about what dark money means in statewide and larger district races in 2024 (legislative, governorships, attorneys general, secretaries of state, state treasurers, Congress, and last but hardly least, the presidency), they better start fretting and figuring out ways to raise money to counter this onslaught of rich progressives across the country … accomplished people who don’t hesitate to stroke big checks that are funneled through progressive groups to win elections.

To that end, it’s best to read Matthew Brouillette’s article at Real Clear Wire, Democrat’s National Dark Money Machine Dominates PA Elections.

Even if you don’t live in PA or give much of a damn about what happens there, what is happening there is happening – or will happen – in your state.

Here’s one pull from Brouillette’s piece that sums up the danger. In the statewide contest for a seat on the PA Supreme Court:

The media howls about outside money or individual Pennsylvanians engaging on behalf of Republicans but largely turns a blind eye to special interests bankrolling Democrats. With final spending reports still coming in, nearly 95% of McCaffery’s [pro-abortion Democrat nominee] funding came from unions, trial lawyers, other special interests, and dark-money groups.

Dark money, along with tactics (put charitably) to identify and harvest ballots, made the difference in battleground states in 2020. Trump lost those states – including Pennsylvania – by razor thin margins.

History can repeat itself if Trump and Republicans fail to fully appreciate the dark money threat and put in place strong countermeasures today.
