    Podcast Summary

    • UK Rwanda deportation plan and Trump impeachment trial: The UK government's Rwanda deportation plan is moving forward despite opposition, while the US impeachment trial of former President Trump continues with accusations of election interference.

      The UK government's controversial Rwanda asylum seeker deportation plan is set to become law, despite concerns and opposition from some peers. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has pledged the first flights will commence in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, Sunak is also traveling to Poland to announce a significant military aid package worth £500 million to Ukraine, marking a substantial increase in the UK's support for the country in its ongoing war against Russia. Elsewhere, the historic impeachment trial of former US President Donald Trump began, with prosecutors accusing him of orchestrating a criminal scheme to interfere in the 2016 presidential election. Trump, in response, dismissed the trial as politically motivated. These events highlight ongoing international political tensions and debates around immigration, national security, and constitutional principles.

    • Trump's Legal Troubles Impact 2024 Campaign: Former President Trump's legal issues in New York could hinder his ability to campaign for the 2024 election for up to two months.

      Former President Donald Trump's legal troubles are hindering his ability to campaign for the 2024 election. Trump is currently required to be in a New York courtroom in Manhattan due to allegations of falsifying internal business records as part of an alleged scheme to bury damaging stories during his 2016 campaign. This legal battle could last for two months, making it difficult for Trump to focus on his political aspirations. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden is actively campaigning, spending three days in Pennsylvania ahead of the primaries. In other news, the Ministry of Defense is reportedly ready to settle with 100 veterans over an antimalaria drug linked to suicides. And, did you know that a crocodile can't stick out its tongue? On a lighter note, UnitedHealth Care offers short-term health insurance plans for people in between jobs or starting a new business, with flexible and budget-friendly coverage.

What could that mean for the final phase of the impeachment trial? Guests: Maggie Haberman, who covers the White House and Michael S. Schmidt, who covers national security and federal investigations for The New York Times.

    When Will This Farce End? (Ep 1171)

    When Will This Farce End? (Ep 1171)
    In this episode, I address the dramatic late night developments in the sham impeachment trial. I also address the latest troubling comments by lying Jim Comey. Finally, I discuss this little reported fact about Joe Biden that may explain the Ukraine scandal. News Picks:GOP Senator Susan Collins folds under pressure on the question of witnesses.    Hilarious! The Democrats claimed yesterday that foreign interference in our elections is okay as long as the Democrats pay for it.    Adam Schiff shamefully ducks a question about his efforts to coordinate the impeachment smear.    The fired Ukrainian prosecutor says Joe Biden abused his power in complaint. Democrats ignore.    Joe Biden’s daughter seems to be doing really well too. Check out where some of her money comes from.   Revealed! Here’s Rand Paul’s question which was blocked by Chief Justice Roberts.    Our national debt is a growing, and unavoidable, menace.   Copyright Dan Bongino All Rights Reserved.
