[@JulianDorey]

Ritland x DiOrio - the combo we all needed!

[@MikeRitland]

Thank you for hooking it up brother!

[@lemmyrocker6209]

Hi JD - did you set this up by any chance? Jokes dude!!😂😂😂

[@garrickr5084]

Mike, love the podcast brother. Big fan. Idk why I thought this, but every time I hear you on the mic, I feel like you missed your calling as a “Classic Rock” radio station morning show DJ. Real men’s radio!

[@MikeRitland]

Not mad at that! Rick Dees watch out!

[@matthewweber9543]

Dude sounds like Kevin James. Once you hear it, you can't unhear it. Almost had to stop listening haha!

Retired police officer 30 years. Literally everything your guest described about federal prosecutors politically motivated when to decide to prosecute a case is absolutley true on a local leveI. I have had arguments with prosecutors in calif. and Idaho with slam dunk cases but for whatever reason usually they felt there was a small chance they might not win the case so it was dropped. Some cared more about their win loss record than prosecution. And they are the sole person who decides if a case is prosecuted. And once one prosecutor said no it was very difficult to find one that would move forward. Most of the prosecutors I dealt with were very professional and accurate but the amount of times I watched cases never brought forth was concerning. It’s not the police or fbi job to prosecute just collect the evidence and forward for prosecution. Comey had no standing to say no prosecution for Hillary. That was strictly on the us attorney to decide if she was prosecuted and they obviously made the political decision not to. And they stayed quiet while Comey took the public heat for the lack of prosecution. And he brought that on himself by flapping his gums to the Media that he made that decision. One way to stop these lack of prosecutions for politics or Personal reasons is to have an impartial review board of attorneys and judges who review the turned down cases or this will not change.

[@brianbircher5368]

I agree with you, but now everything is so polarized that the problem is finding true impartiality.

[@XBAKERXBAKERX]

Remarkable man. Men like this should have hands in running the country!

[@Rogerthat777]

Thanks Mike for this guest interview, Jim DiOrio sounds like a REAL mensch along with stories about his family, not another self promoting FBI or Spec Ops guy...

[@jaredspear8140]

Mike and Jim, appreciate the time/stories/insight & service gentlemen! Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays. Really enjoyed the 3+hrs.

[@JoeSaundersYippieKiYay]

Thanks so much to Mike and Jim for this interview. I appreciate you all for giving us a peek behind so many curtains. Rock on Sirs and keep up the great work!

[@madskyluke]

It's reassuring to know that there are guys with that type of character working for the bureau. Guys like that make this country a better place.

[@mdub1955]

Mike, Thank you for making this one happen... absolutely outstanding.

[@yuk6260]

Fantastic show.. Appreciate you

[@mrjacktraeger]

Mike, you should have asked him about the dancing men that we caught, sent here from another country to document the attacks on 9/11 & why despite a whole host of other evidence, they were questioned, released & sent back to that country.

[@whycuds]

Totally worth the listen, great interview.

[@Johnson11c]

So happy to see your journey to our father in heaven and our lord and savior Jesus Christ! Keep it up brother. Praying for yall always. For everyone

[@kerrywhitworth7526]

BEST INTRO QUESTIONS IN THE GAME

[@algonz4589]

He has to get better camera people - focus goes in and out

[@mikewinter7697]

Great episode!!!

[@trowuabeatin]

Jim, were you involved in the Robert Hanseen Espionage case at all? A very good family friend of mine worked for him at the Bureau and she was physically assaulted by him after she got up and left a meeting where he was becoming abusive. Of course, the whole incident was just swept under the rug at the time due to Robert Hanseen’s position within the Bureau. Had the Bureau fired him at that point like they should have, his whole espionage plot may have never happened.

[@alessiallaman]

Epic!

[@richardmaupin2350]

Love the show. Keep it up

[@----REDACTED----]

3:04:33 This excitement gives me confidence in the future of our intelligence agencies

[@delucadan93]

Great convo 👍

[@JEDIJA]

54:23 I thought something was wrong with me

[@kevinmandley2981]

Mike your voice and how you talk and sound reminds me of Howard strern

[@Nales1786]

Gonna be a good one here. Atta boy!

[@andymodem]

That sweatshirt he’s wearing is 🔥

[@paulerickson159]

Was getting ready to order team dog for my springer spaniel puppy and unfortunately lost him at 8 months to seizures from a liver shunt

[@MikeRitland]

Really sorry to hear that.

[@paulerickson159]

@ was extremely hard he was a smart boy. And I just put my black lab of 14 years down in February. Think I’m gonna take a break from pups for awhile after this. God speed with what your doing brother happy holidays to you and your family

[@ThewarengineMetatron]

Great interview I don’t know if it’s my eyes. I don’t think so, but it seems like anytime. Jim talks with his hands. The camera auto focuses on his hand rather than him and everything goes blurry in the background. Just thought I’d let you know.

[@banks4realmusic413]

I'm currently watching at around the 1 hr mark and it's not blurry at all. I'm not saying it didn't happen but I haven't noticed any blurry backgrounds or auto focusing issues.

[@ThewarengineMetatron]

@ very strange it didn’t happen when Mike was on and seemed to only happen when Jim was moving his hands around a lot

[@bghalla7]

Ya happens twice at around 1 hour and 1 hour and 4 minutes. It's whenever he sticks his hand towards the camera it happens.

[@JJ-lc5sr]

Now the Wiseguys have podcasts. lol Times sure have changed. I feel your pain Jim. I was at both the 93 bombing and 9/11. I worked for Rich F when I was a JTTF NY TFO and know George to say hello.

[@----REDACTED----]

1:46:59 This is extremely frustrating. If you think there is a problem with every case, wether through corruption or malpractice, you must re-define a "problem" with different guidelines You can label a case extremist and deal with every like-case, or you can make that extreme normal. Ignoring the problem enlists future actors to propogate a symptom that benefits their wishes over actual legislation.

[@dennismurphy6664]

This guy acts and sounds just like HANK from breaking bad. Looks like him too. Real name Dean Norris.

[@JoePaPodcast]

BRO!!! One of the best interviews I've seen, Jim DiOrio, what an incredible guest. Keep swinging for the fences, you're knocking it out of the park!

[@rob8823]

Isnt Pompeo a drummer for the war band?

[@----REDACTED----]

2:40:20 Is this money paid out tax free?

[@----REDACTED----]

Ah... nevermind. You get an assigned IRS agent 😂😂

[@justingeis1452]

I like this podcast but damn 1,000 commercials

[@godirectwildlandfire6077]

It would have been interesting if Mike had asked DiOrio what he thought of "nice guys" McCabe, Mueller, Sean Henry, Wray being a party to all the Democrat shenanigans over the past 10 years. Some, if not all, being illegal and unconstitutional, by the letter of the law, if not the spirit. In Mueller's case it goes back a lot farther than 10 years. I know someone can only speak to their own experiences and interactions, but sometimes the facts speak for themselves.

Hank from breaking bad | Mike Drop Ep. 217

[@James_Edward59]

Now I can be completely wrong about this and I don’t mean this in any disrespect because guys like Jim have done so much for this country but every time I hear a former FBI guy talk about firearms, it’s like they don’t know much at all about them. He said “Maybe I shouldn’t say this but I still have access to .40S&W as if everyone else doesn’t too 😂 then he said he carries ball ammunition in his carry gun and didn’t know the specific round he carries 🤦🏻‍♂️ Chances are he carries Hollow Point rounds in his CCW but he probably didn’t even know what ball ammo is. I have just seen it a lot in KZbin with former FBI guys and other former Federal Government guys like the Director of the DEA who couldn’t field strip a Glock 😂 or called a magazine a clip. There is no way they have high standards at Quantico because it has to be passable for both genders of all sizes which is why the SS is full of inept people as well. Sorry but you don’t see tiny or out of shape women in Tier 1 units or even Tier 2 units in the military.

[@trowuabeatin]

Mike, you should’ve asked Jim who really killed JonBenet ?

[@derekwarren1548]

Was Assad pardoned?

[@shatnersufolanded7785]

No never will be that was a psyop

[@----REDACTED----]

2:50:48 So you're telling me the social media moderation industry is strengthened by a good ol' boys club???? This is a ridiculous waste of money, perpetuating cycles of bullying that make communities toxic.

[@----REDACTED----]

Makes me frustrated how much money we allow lazy people to make. I'm glad I get to waste their time instead of watching another Emmet Till go down.

[@ThewarengineMetatron]

1 hour :31 video basically goes out. Your having some type of camera problem and still happening only on Jim

[@Sean-i4r]

Julian actually had him on,I think,2 times

[@1tactundra140]

Bros head is so shiny it is messing with your auto focus lol.

[@----REDACTED----]

2:17:22 I witnessed this happen to my mom on dozens of occasions growing up. I quickly lost all respect for law enforcement at an early age. Impossible to have hope when there was nothing done to help or stop the cycle. We had bills paid, but forced to live through cold winters and nor'easters without heat. Multiple towns, multiple companies Trash companies also love to skip sequential pickups for their "favorite" addresses. Helping the neighbors, and leaving ours behind on the street.

[@Mr._Infamous]

He's talking about end stage capitalism. Capitalism cares about nothing but profit. It was never gonna last.

[@Cappurniggas]

Are you paying youtube to autoplay these videos? I don't subscribe to your channel. I don't watch videos where 2 people talk about whatever for hours, and yet, this shit is the ONLY thing that youtube will autoplay when something that I actually WANT to watch ends. Does anybody know how to make it stop? I dislike every single one hoping that they'll get the message. I've disliked DOZENS of them. It just won't stop.

[@douglasaverkamp8573]

Maybe the algorithm is trying to tell you something important?

[@Cappurniggas]

@@douglasaverkamp8573 That alone is enough of a reason not to watch it.

[@jeffschall3784]

Just another oathbreaker comey wannabe.
