Joe Rogan has claimed that the Democratic Party is trying to leak scandals about Joe Biden to discourage him from running again in 2024.
The podcaster’s claims, which emerged during an episode where he spoke with ex-CIA agent Mike Baker, follow endless stories of impropriety by Hunter and his family’s foreign business dealings.
“If I had to guess, I’d say all that stuff that’s slowly coming out about Biden is on purpose and they want to get rid of him,” Rogan said.
Rogan, who called himself “a conspiracy theorist in an armchair,” believes Biden — who faces petty challenges from Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Marianne Williamson – can’t win the general election.
“I think he wants to run again, and I don’t think the Democrats think he can win. I think they are right, and I think they will slowly but surely expose more of this very clear evidence of corruption,” Rogan added.
Podcaster and MMA commentator Joe Rogan said on his popular show Wednesday that the Democratic Party is trying to leak scandals about President Joe Biden to discourage him from running in 2024.
His recording, which came during an episode in which he spoke with ex-CIA covert officer Mike Baker, follows endless stories of impropriety by son Hunter and his family’s foreign business dealings.
Rogan was referring to the new detailed bank records that showed $20 million in payments to the Biden family and their partners by foreign actors in places like Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan during Joe’s time as vice president.
He said it was “f**king bananas” and “the fact that this isn’t all over the New York Times and The Washington Post and mainstream news – that they don’t shout it from the rooftops because you know they would do as if it were Trump.”
said Baker that the media is “making every effort and now having to wriggle in certain ways as it becomes more and more difficult to cover the Biden administration from above.”
He hoped that one day “maybe the dam will break and there will be so much paper evidence that they can’t ignore it.”

Rogan responded with doubt and further questions, wondering if journalists were trying to protect their careers.
“Yeah, but the question is what kind of backlash would they get if they pursued that narrative, how dangerous is it for them to pursue that narrative? Because it seems that it would be quite dangerous, you are talking about extraordinary amounts and this is exactly what has been discovered.’
House Oversight Republicans have released documents suggesting that Hunter and his former business partner Devon Archer used shell companies to “hide” millions in payments from foreign companies and oligarchs — though none of the newly released documents directly link payments to Joe Biden.
The new evidence supports Archer’s overwhelming testimony to the committee that Hunter brought in large amounts of money from foreign deals, and how his father Joe was personally present at dinner meetings and attended at least 20 calls with foreign employees.

Hunter Biden used $142,000 transferred from a Kazakh oligarch to his shell company to buy a Porsche before hosting a dinner party with his father Joe, bank records show.
The bank records also reveal ties between Russian billionaire Yelena Baturina and the Biden family, as well as detailed annual payments of $1 million to Hunter and Archer for their positions on the board of directors of Ukrainian oil company Burisma.
They show that Baturina – the wife of a former Moscow mayor associated with Vladimir Putin – transferred $3.5 million to Rosemont Seneca Thornton, a shell company owned by Hunter and Archer, in February 2014.
Three-quarters of a million dollars was then transferred directly to Archer, and the rest was used to fund a new company, Rosemont Seneca Bohai.
The bank records show a transfer of $3.5 million on February 14, 2014 and a transfer of $2.7 million to Rosemont Seneca Bohai on March 11, 2014.

Hunter’s empty company was handed $142,000 after the meeting – the same amount he used to buy a Porsche
Subsequently, on March 25, 2014, there were two separate transfers – one for $2.2 million and another for $200,000, to another Rosemont Seneca Bohai account.
Archer and Hunter used Rosemont Seneca Bohai to collect other personal foreign payments, such as Burisma’s.
Republicans on the committee allege that Hunter Biden then transferred the money to another Rosemont Seneca Bohai account that he and Archer had access to.
Democrats are opposing the Republican’s new release, saying there is no evidence Joe received any of the money.
