Colorado Democrat congressional candidate blamed America for 9/11 terrorist attacks
"Do you believe that the 9/11 terrorist attacks on America were the inevitable consequence of American foreign policy? Inevitable in the sense that we destabilized a lot of the Middle East, um, that forced people to believe that another act of violence was the only response."
About this episode
Conservative commentator Dan Bongino returned from a week-long vacation to deliver a fiery episode celebrating America's 250th birthday while warning of what he describes as a communist infiltration of American politics. Bongino opened by expressing deep patriotism and gratitude for living in America, then pivoted to serious warnings about the state of the nation. The episode focused heavily on exposing what Bongino characterizes as fraudulent narratives from both the political left and certain figures within conservative media he labels as grifters. A major development discussed was former National Security Adviser John Bolton's guilty plea to retaining classified information, contradicting earlier media narratives that the case was politically motivated revenge. Bongino extensively criticized newly elected socialist candidates like Avelia Quiroz in Colorado and others in New York who openly advocate for seizing the means of production and have made controversial statements including blaming America for 9/11. The show featured multiple clips exposing what Bongino argues are the failures of socialist economic policies, including Bernie Sanders admitting he will continue flying private jets despite climate advocacy, and debates about tax policy where progressive advocates could not cite basic statistics about what the wealthy actually pay. President Trump appeared in clips warning about the dangers of rent control and communist policies being implemented in New York and California. Bongino framed the current moment as a war for the soul of America, urging his audience to stand firm on facts and evidence rather than following what he calls charismatic charlatans on either side of the political spectrum. The episode also announced a new 1776 Live Club contest giving away $1,776 weekly to viewers who engage with the live chat.
