Joe Rogan shared strong words on his podcast while speaking with comedian Tony Hinchliffe, calling out what he sees as a total lack of accountability over the Russiagate controversy.

During their conversation, Rogan criticized the fact that no one has faced consequences for promoting what he described as the Russiagate conspiracy.

“The fact that no one got in trouble for all that Russiagate stuff,” Rogan said, expressing disbelief that the same people involved are still active in the media.

Rogan continued, “And that they still listen… that the same people that were pushing that Russiagate sh*t are… they’re still giving opinions on TV.”

Tony Hinchliffe agreed, adding, “Yeah, there is no repercussions to be found. They get to say whatever they want. It’s crazy.”

Rogan responded that while there may not be formal consequences, there has been a loss of trust.

“Well, the repercussion is no one takes them seriously. And that’s real, they’ve suffered that,” he stated.

He explained that viewers have become more skeptical, saying, “I mean, we’ve seen that in real time. And I think the pandemic was the big… that was the big wakeup call for a lot of people.”

Rogan argued that public perception shifted when people were pressured to take the vaccine for jobs or travel, and then experienced negative side effects.

He said those experiences caused many people to lose faith in authorities.

“Especially people that were forced to take the vaccine because they had jobs or they had to fly or they had family members. And then they got some horrible side effect. And those people got what they call red-pilled, I know a lot of people that got red-pilled from that.”

WATCH:

Rogan’s comments suggested that the erosion of trust in media and institutions is tied to repeated failures in public accountability.

Many in the media who supported the Russiagate narrative have remained in their positions, which Rogan and others see as proof that major outlets have not faced real consequences.

The view expressed was that the lack of repercussions sets a dangerous precedent, with warnings that similar efforts could target future political figures.

Without accountability, such tactics could easily happen again, whether directed at JD Vance, Marco Rubio, or any other rising figure, arguing that once an approach proves effective, it tends to be repeated in political battles.
