Ep. 689 Why Is the Media Ignoring this Bombshell Story?

Congress Scandal

The episode kicks off with a shocking scandal involving the House of Representatives and IT security breaches. Dan Bongino reveals that 44 House Democrats employed Pakistani brothers, the Awan brothers, who gained unauthorized access to congressional emails. This breach occurred under the watch of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, raising questions about her relationship with the brothers 1. Despite the gravity of the situation, the media has largely ignored the story, which Bongino compares to "Obamagate" in its significance 2.

The media is a Democrat propaganda machine that even they're ignoring this thing because it's so Joe, like, wait, what?

--- Dan Bongino

The lack of media coverage is perplexing, given the potential implications of the scandal 3.

   

Boycotts Impact

The discussion shifts to the impact of political and media boycotts, highlighting their role in shaping public opinion. Dan Bongino argues that boycotts often lead to counter-boycotts, creating long-lasting negative PR for companies involved 4. He emphasizes the importance of conservatives engaging in the "long game" to counteract liberal strategies, which he claims are based on unpopular platforms 5.

Liberals forget overnight. They do. Conservatives never forget. Just ask target.

--- Dan Bongino

Bongino suggests that conservatives should be strategic in their media consumption and support businesses that align with their values 6.
