‘Unbelievably Baffling’: Joe Rogan Says The Quiet Part Out Loud About Corporate Media’s DOGE Coverage

Podcast host Joe Rogan criticized corporate media Wednesday for its negative reporting on Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), pointing to outlets totally ignoring instances of waste uncovered at the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

Since Musk announced plans to shutter USAID on Feb. 3, CNN and MSNBC used the phrase “constitutional crisis” over 200 times, the Daily Caller News Foundation learned in a keyword search of footage archived by Grabien News. Rogan, on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” accused media outlets of choosing to attack President Donald Trump and Musk’s USAID plan and fixating on DOGE staffers accessing Americans’ data.

“What’s unbelievably baffling to me is the complete absence of the coverage of all of these things that should be very concerning in mainstream media,” Rogan said “Complete absence. All the discussion, the negative anti-Trump discussion about USAID shutting down, is all the good that it does.”

“And then also, you’re going to get access to people’s private data — that’s all you’re hearing,” he continued. “You’re hearing the gaslighting spin is those two things.”

USAID sent 65.5 million condoms, 9.8 million injectable birth control products and 334,000 IUDs to other countries in fiscal year 2022 to facilitate family planning, particularly in the third world. It also distributed a $2 million grant to Guatemala to fund “gender-affirming care” and LGBTQ activism.

Joe Rogan Shares the Most Shocking Thing He Thinks About Elon Musk

Joe Rogan recently shared his thoughts on Elon Musk, revealing the one thing that left him truly astonished about the tech mogul. Despite Musk’s towering achievements, it wasn’t his groundbreaking ventures like SpaceX or Tesla that impressed Rogan most. Instead, it was Musk’s unrelenting focus on exposing the federal government and all of the “weird shady sh*t” happening in DC. Rogan marveled at Musk’s unparalleled vision and commitment to dismantling wasteful spending in the wake of DOGE’s review of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), including a $1.5 million program slated to “advance diversity, equity, and inclusion in Serbia’s workplaces and business communities” and a $70,000 program for a “DEI musical” in Ireland.

“What’s fascinating right now is we’re getting a chance to see what happens when you take a business approach to the government in the White House,” Rogan said during an episode of his podcast, “The Joe Rohan Experience.” “We’re seeing right now with this whole USAID thing where they’re uncovering massive amounts of corruption and waste and just a lot of weird, shady s— with NGOs and where an enormous amount of money is going.”

“And instead of saying like, well, this is just how it is, and this is how these politicians get funded, so let’s just keep this thing going the same way it is and make some incremental changes to try to make people happy, so we still get elected,” he continued.

While Musk’s move has been controversial by many, Rogan cheered the tech mogul and President Donald Trump for “just going ham,” knowing that Trump cannot run after this term.

“The same people that say we need radical change, we need radical change, we’ve got corruption, we need radical change. Okay, well, here’s your radical change.” (Read more from “Joe Rogan Shares the Most Shocking Thing He Thinks About Elon Musk” HERE)

‘Bulls**t Game’: Joe Rogan Rips Into People Pretending ‘Everyone’s Hitler’

Podcast host Joe Rogan ripped into people who pretend that “everyone’s Hitler” on Wednesday, saying they’re “just broken.”

Following President Donald Trump’s inauguration on Monday, Department of Government Efficiency leader Elon Musk was criticized by corporate media for a one-arm gesture he made on stage, which some people said resembled a Nazi salute. On “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Rogan called out how people use former Nazi leader Adolf Hitler “as an excuse,” and said their ideology lets them say the “most awful things” about people with differing perspectives.

“You do anything you can to stop Hitler, right? This is why they want to conflate and they always want to pretend that everyone’s Hitler. The problem with that is, it just after a while, it’s crying wolf and people are like, ‘Oh, this is a bullshit game you’re playing, and you’re just using it as an excuse.’ Elon has talked about this a lot. He’s absolutely correct,” Rogan said.

“[It] is that people use woke ideology as an excuse to be an asshole, and it’s really just people that are assholes that are attaching themselves to things that make them feel righteous,” Rogan added. “So they wrap themselves in this idea to give them virtue and to allow them to say the most awful things about other people that have different perspectives. Then just by nature if you’re doing that you’re doing the wrong thing. You’re a bad person.”

Corporate media and Democrats circulated a clipped portion of Musk. A full clip, though, shows Musk raising his hand to the crowd while saying, “My heart goes out to you.” Rogan went on to call out those justifying their actions and comparing Musk to Hitler, adding that their stance will become “less and less effective.”

Joe Rogan Says He’s ‘Genuinely Concerned’ About Drone Sightings After New Theory Emerges

By New York Post. Podcast king Joe Rogan said the mysterious drones that have buzzed around the tristate area have left him “genuinely concerned” Sunday after watching a video that floated an unverified theory about the unmanned devices sniffing out harmful substances.

John Ferguson, the CEO of a remote aircraft system company in Kansas, claimed in a drawn-out TikTok video on Saturday the drones are attempting to “smell” either a gas leak, “radioactive material,” or something else on the ground.

“The only reason why you would ever fly an unmanned aircraft at night is if you’re looking for something,” Ferguson said in the clip, noting he doesn’t believe the drones are nefarious.

“So my belief is they’re trying to smell something on the ground – gas leak, radioactive material, whatever,” the CEO said.

Ferguson added that the theory was his best guess based on his expertise and just his opinion on the drone mystery that’s gripped the East Coast and admitted “I’ve not bounced this off anybody.”

U.S. Deploys Resources on Drone Sightings

By Yahoo News. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has requested that “special detection systems” be deployed in New York and New Jersey after recent drone sightings fueled anxiety among residents in the region.

Schumer told reporters on Sunday that he made the request to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and pushed for Robin Radar Systems, which he said has a better chance of detecting drones because of their “360-degree technology.” Schumer’s request comes after a series of reported drone sightings in the Northeast over the last month, including ones that caused a New York airport to shut down on Friday.

“We’ve seen lots of recent sightings in New York, New Jersey, Long Island, Staten Island. So it’s remarkable, with all these sightings over the last while, why do we have more questions than answers?” Schumer said Sunday. “If the technology exists for a drone to make it up into the sky, there certainly is the technology that can track the craft with precision.”

Earlier Sunday, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the federal government is “deploying additional resources” to address the aerial drones.

“There’s no question that people are seeing drones,” Mayorkas said on ABC News “This Week.” “I want to assure the American public that we in the federal government have deployed additional resources, personnel, technology to assist the New Jersey State Police in addressing the drone sightings.” (Read more from “U.S. Deploys Resources on Drone Sightings” HERE)

‘F**k You, Man’: Joe Rogan Unloads On Zelensky, Military Industrial Complex As Fears Of World War lll Grow

By Daily Caller. Podcast host Joe Rogan called out Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday during his show, warning that the military-industrial complex could be leading the United States into World War III before President-elect Donald Trump takes office.

Tensions between Russia and Ukraine escalated in November after President Joe Biden officially authorized Ukraine on Sunday to use U.S.-supplied long-range missiles for strikes inside Russia. On “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Rogan’s guest, American record producer Scott Storch, told the host he felt “safer” overall knowing Trump would be in office for the next four years.

“What I don’t feel safer [about] is right now they’re launching missiles into Russia,” Rogan responded. “How are you allowed to do that when you’re on the way out? Like the people don’t want you to be there anymore. This should be some sort of a pause for significant actions that could potentially start World War III. Maybe that would be a good thing that we would like to avoid from a dying former president. The whole thing is nuts.”

Rogan went on to read a headline claiming Zelensky said Russian President Vladmir Putin is “terrified” before calling out the world leader, highlighting how intercontinental ballistic missiles can carry nuclear weapons.

“Zelensky says Putin is terrified. F**k you, man. F**k you people. You fucking people are about to start World War III,” Rogan said. “F**king insanity because those intercontinental ballistic missiles can have nukes on them. This didn’t, but if it does the whole world changes and it changes because the military industrial complex and it changes because of the money that’s going to Ukraine. It changes because the outgoing president, or whoever the f**k is actually running the country, has decided to do something f**king insane.” (Read more from “‘F**k You, Man’: Joe Rogan Unloads On Zelensky, Military Industrial Complex As Fears Of World War lll Grow” HERE)

Joe Rogan Accused of Spreading ‘Russian Propaganda’ on His Podcast by Celebrated Ukrainian Boxer Over His ‘WW3’ Comments

By New York Post. Ukrainian boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko accused Joe Rogan of spewing “Russian propaganda” on his podcast during a recent episode where the host accused US and Ukrainian leaders of trying to “start World War III.”

One of Rogan’s most recent episodes included a conversation revolving around President Joe Biden authorizing the Ukrainian military to use American-supplied long-range missiles against Russian forces in the Kursk region, just beyond the northeastern border of Ukraine. . .

Klitschko, a former world heavyweight champion, released his a video clapping back at Rogan.

“You talk about these American weapons being sent to Ukraine, which you believe will lead to the Third World War. So, let me tell you that you’re repeating Russian propaganda – Putin’s Russia is in trouble. So they want to scare you and people like you. His war was supposed to last three days, it has lasted three years thanks to the heroism and sacrifice of us Ukrainians,” Klitschko said in a video shared on X.

“So you’re using the only weapon that Putin really intends to use: propaganda and this weapon really weakens our democracies. Putin’s Russia wants to destroy Ukraine quietly, they want America to stay quiet – not great. A great America is not an America that abandons countries that defend freedom with their lives.” (Read more from “Joe Rogan Accused of Spreading ‘Russian Propaganda’ on His Podcast by Celebrated Ukrainian Boxer Over His ‘WW3’ Comments” HERE)

‘Look At His F**king Smile, Dude!’: Rogan Takes Wild Guess On Who He Thinks Biden Voted For

Joe Rogan, during an episode of his show Friday, explained to Black Rifle Coffee Company founder Evan Hafer why he believes President Joe Biden voted for President-elect Donald Trump.

On Wednesday, Trump met with Biden at the White House to discuss the upcoming transition of executive power and to speak for more than two hours about domestic and foreign issues. On “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Rogan sat down with Hafer to point out how unusually happy Biden appeared during the meeting with the former president, despite his party’s loss.

“You know what my f**king favorite thing of this whole election cycle has been? Yesterday when Biden and Trump sat down in the White House. Biden voted for Trump. I guarantee it. I f**king guarantee it. I never saw that dude so happy in his f**king life. He lost. His party lost. He was happy,” Rogan said.

“When Obama had to shake hands with Trump and do the whole transition thing Obama looked like, ‘Jesus Christ,’” Rogan added before pulling up a photo of Trump and Biden during their meeting. “Look at his f**king smile dude! Look at his f**king smile man. That’s like when your kid gets married.”

Rogan: ‘Artists, Musicians, Comedians Thanked Me for Endorsing Trump Because They Can’t Do It Because They’d Be Attacked’

Podcast king Joe Rogan told his audience that artists, musicians, and comedians have thanked him for endorsing Donald Trump because they were afraid to do so for fear of having their careers destroyed.

Speaking to New York-based legal advisor Josh Dubin, Rogan noted that too many Americans are afraid to exercise their First Amendment rights to freedom of speech because of the radical left’s oppressive speech codes and cancel culture.

“There’s a lot of people that don’t speak their mind,” Rogan said at the outset of his discussion on free speech. “So you know how many artists that have reached out to me that are like fucking hippies, man! Like artists, like musicians, comedians, that thanked me for endorsing Trump because they can’t do it.” . . .

“They said they want to but they don’t want to get attacked,” the nation’s most popular podcaster continued. “They can’t say it. They think the country’s going in the wrong direction They think that this control of social media by the government which we would have pretty much fully if it wasn’t for Elon Musk buying Twitter.”

Joe Rogan Claims Kamala Harris Campaign Asked if He Edits Interviews

Joe Rogan, host of The Joe Rogan Experience, recently discussed how the campaign for Vice President Kamala Harris sought to impose certain topic “restrictions” and inquired whether he edits his interviews, during an episode of his podcast. Rogan revealed that the Harris campaign had explored the possibility of having the vice president appear on his show to help boost her appeal among male voters, according to a Reuters report from October 15.

On the podcast, Rogan explained that while he agreed to some of the proposed restrictions, he made it clear that there would be no editing of the interview. “They had a few topics they didn’t want to talk about, but I told them, ‘I don’t give a f**k.’ I said, ‘Get her in here, whatever you want to talk about,’” Rogan shared. He added, “And then they asked me if I edit the interviews. I told them, ‘There’s not going to be any editing. We’re not going to edit.’”

Fellow podcast host Theo Von, who was part of the conversation, chimed in, confirming that the Harris campaign had asked the same question about editing. “Yeah, that’s the same thing they asked us, ‘Is there an edit?’” Von said.

Rogan also took to X (formerly Twitter) on October 29 to reveal that the Harris campaign had suggested he travel to her location to record the interview. However, he strongly believed that it would be better for the vice president to come to his studio in Austin, Texas. On the following episode of his podcast on October 30, Rogan shared that he had extended an “open invitation” to Harris to appear on the show during her visit to Texas for an October 25 rally. However, she did not take him up on the offer.

Rogan’s podcast is known for its long-form, unfiltered conversations, and it gained widespread attention when President-elect Donald Trump appeared as a guest on October 25. The episode, which lasted for three hours, has garnered over 47 million views on YouTube as of Friday.

Reflecting on his approach to interviews, Rogan explained, “I just wanted to talk… I feel like you give someone a couple of hours, and you start talking about anything, I’m going to see the pattern of the way you think. I’m gonna see how you process ideas, whether you’re calculated or just free. Whether you’re comfortable with yourself or projecting something.”

Joe Rogan Endorses Donald Trump, Citing Elon Musk’s ‘Compelling’ Case

By Breitbart. Popular podcaster Joe Rogan endorsed former President Donald Trump on Monday, citing a “compelling case” made by Elon Musk on his show.

The endorsement comes on Election Day eve and after Vice President Kamala Harris refused to sit for a three-hour interview with Rogan in Austin, Texas.

“Joe Rogan just endorsed me. Is that great? Thank you, Joe,” Trump said during a rally in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. “That’s so nice. And he doesn’t do that stuff.”

Rogan posted his interview with Musk on X: “The great and powerful @elonmusk. If it wasn’t for him, we’d be fucked. He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump you’ll hear, and I agree with him every step of the way.”

“For the record, yes, that’s an endorsement of Trump,” he said. “Enjoy the podcast.”

Elon Musk, Joe Rogan Blast Democrat Hoaxes And Alleged YouTube Censorship

By Daily Caller. Elon Musk and Joe Rogan on Monday accused the Democratic Party of repeatedly spreading misinformation and suggested that YouTube may be deliberately suppressing Rogan’s recent interview with former President Donald Trump.

During an appearance on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Musk said Democrats “do all the things they accuse” Trump of, pointing to what he called a pattern of deliberate hoaxes and disinformation. The Tesla CEO also said the Democratic Party repeatedly propagates falsehoods and hoaxes.

“Politicians are going to exaggerate. They’re going to speak, and then they’ll tell occasional untruths, whatever. That’s how it is for politics. But [then] you have deliberate, concerted, repeated pushing of hoaxes,” Musk told Rogan.

“You claim to be the good guys. The Dems are like, ‘Oh, we’re the good guys. We’re the honest people.’ You can’t claim to be the good guys. You can’t claim to be the honest people if you’re deliberately pushing hoaxes that have been debunked thoroughly.”

Kamala Chickens Out of Joe Rogan Interview

Vice President Kamala Harris has reportedly turned down an invitation to appear on Joe Rogan’s popular podcast and the widely followed All-In podcast, according to venture capitalist and tech mogul David Sacks. The news, which surfaced during a recent podcast episode, has ignited debate over Harris’s decision to avoid what many see as two of the most influential platforms in today’s media landscape.

Sacks, a co-host of the All-In podcast, revealed that the offer was extended to Harris, but she declined to participate. “Kamala won’t face the tough questions,” Sacks claimed, fueling speculation that the vice president may be avoiding high-profile interviews where she could face more unscripted and challenging conversations. The All-In podcast, known for its freewheeling discussions on politics, technology, and culture, often features high-level guests, and the opportunity for Harris to reach a wide audience has now become a missed one.

Joe Rogan’s podcast, known for its in-depth and often controversial interviews, also boasts millions of listeners. The vice president’s decision to decline both platforms has raised eyebrows, especially considering Rogan’s reputation for asking provocative, sometimes uncomfortable questions of his guests. Harris’s avoidance of these media outlets has led to criticism from both political opponents and members of the media, some of whom argue that this reflects a pattern of the administration being unwilling to engage in tough, unfiltered dialogue.

Social media was quick to respond to Sacks’ revelation, with many expressing disappointment at Harris’s decision. One user on X (formerly Twitter) commented, “Kamala’s avoiding Joe Rogan? She can’t handle real questions.” Another user added, “She’s scared of facing the truth—both Rogan and All-In would have exposed her.” Supporters of Harris, however, defended her choice, suggesting that the platforms are not conducive to the type of meaningful conversation needed at this critical time.
