Hey everybody and welcome to the Cash's Corner for the first time ever from Truth Social headquarters with my dear friend and former boss, Devin Nunes, the current CEO of TMTG.

We're excited to have them. We're excited to be in Sarasota, Florida. Thanks to the team for having us, and we're going to have a great episode. So, Devin, welcome to Cash's Corner. Hey, welcome, welcome here to True Social Headquarters, man. It's great to have you here. Thanks so much for having us. I would say, I think I want to lead off with, did you ever think when you met me six years ago, this is where we would be doing a Cash's Corner episode? I thought you would be doing all the media. No. Well, look, I never even thought, you know, all those times, you know, back when we brought you on to work on the Russia Gate and the Russia hoax, you know, no one ever thought. I think even when you came on board at that time, no one thought that the government was that bad. The Department of Justice was that corrupt and that it would basically upend, you know, the entire country into what is now a fake scandal. But I think we're still in that dark chapter of American history, and that's

kind of what has resulted in you and I landing here today, is that, you know, I left Congress

because I realized that our communications were down. There was no way to communicate even with

one another, and so that's what brings us here, and Sarasota is the free speech capital of the

world now. It's got truth and rumble. It seems like it. So, you know, we've never done, we've done a lot of interviews together. We've had a lot of fun over the years, but this is kind of the first, like, for me, from my perspective, to do this with you. So I think it's pretty cool. And I think our audience would love to hear, like, how did you first come onto Russiagate and figure out, we got to get

this investigation, we have to go big? I've never really actually asked you that. You know,

people always ask me, how did you guys meet? And, you know, we tell them the story, it's literally

by chance, through mutual friends. But how did you know back then we had to go big on what we now

call Russia Gate? Well, it was actually pretty simple

because all through 14 and 15 and 16, I watched how poorly the Obama administration

and by Obama Biden administration was dealing with Putin. If you if you recall during that time,

there was there was one fiasco after another, whether it was the little green men going into

Crimea, they shot down an airliner in Ukraine, remember all that. And Obama and Biden refused

to deal with Putin. I mean, they continually backed down to him.

They were, you know, always trying to cut deals with him, all these side deals.

You know, they played games in Ukraine back in 2014, you know, in the election, the Obama

administration did.

None of that made any sense, and it finally led to me coming out, ironically,

in the spring of 2016, saying that this was the biggest

intelligence failure since 9-11, 2001,

was our inability to understand Putin's plans and intentions.
