What if I was picking my nose or something? Luckily, I don't do that. Imagine that. It'd be hilarious. He's like, oh, hold on. We'll do it again.

Okay, thanks. Folks, I got a big show for you today. The immigration story is just exploding. I got a serious deep state update for you. Something happened. Again, the police state has come for a journalist who has blown the doors off a lot of the January 6th stuff. Incredible.

It is locking people up. I got a new media update. This is going to be a different show. We're going to cover a lot of material today.

I'd say, Joe, let's go. But we had a little bit of a technical hiccup and if I hit the Kenny bell, it rings

forever. So I'm just going to rock and roll right into the show. Let me start out with this. forever. So I'm just going to rock and roll right into the show. Let me start out with this. Folks, we've been covering, this is very, very, I don't want to change the mood of the show so abruptly. This is really serious stuff. We've been covering some very serious stuff about the Russia hoax, the deep state, the police state over the last few weeks. If you're a regular listener to the show and you caught the shows over the last two weeks, you know, since the Schellenberger-Taibbi reporting about a new source that emerged about the CIA's operation to take out Donald Trump through the collusion hoax, you know, we revealed some information.

We were given permission to reveal. You understand that. There have been a lot of people asking, people whose names were on that list. A number of hosts who've been asking, come on my show, talk to me. Folks, I promise you this, what I know, you know. You have my word on that. What I know, you know. What I've been given permission to share, you know. Okay? When I find out more, I will tell you more. But to people out there asking me, hey, can you come on and do interviews? I appreciate it. I'm not mad or anything. I understand why you would want to do that. I'm not getting anybody hurt. I'm not getting anybody killed and I'm not being ridiculous or hyperbolic. What I know, you know. I'm not going into some open-ended format where people are going to start to dig, well, what about this? The reason I've done everything strategically on my show is because if you share information with me, I am never going to burn you,

no matter what, ever. So I'm not doing any interviews on it. It's not personal. It's not mad at anybody. I understand. I know a lot of people are upset. They were spied on. It's not just one. It's like 10 or 20 people and their teams that have reached out. I'm not doing any interviews on it. I'm not burning a source, period.

When I'm given new information, you will hear it in a controlled fashion so nobody gets killed or whacked or worse. And I'm not being dramatic about it. All right. I'm getting a ton of emails and stuff. You need to do that. I need to keep this guy safe is what I need to do. That's priority number one. Imagine you gave me information and put your life in danger, given all these lunatics. And then I go out and start blabbing stuff you didn't tell me to say, you'd never trust me again. We're not doing that. It's not worth clicks or anything else like that. All right. I just want to get that out of the way. Hey, the Michigan story last night, Nikki Haley won again, folks. It's her fifth in a row. She won by losing, which is, no, I'm not kidding. By Nikki Haley's definition, the more you lose by, the greater the victory.

So last night, congratulations, Nikki Haley. Yes. Guys, wouldn't you agree? Huge victory. Nikki, everybody's laughing. Nikki's kicking ass. She's really right. She lost last night by, I think it was 50.

Oh, he's saying, I think it was 40. I'm sorry. 40, maybe 40, 48. I don't even know. So good job, Nick. Well done. You're really kicking ass, knocking it out of the park. Stay in the race. You're doing such a wonderful job so far. Of course, I'm kidding. She's wasting time and money. I don't know when humiliation is going to be enough, but at this point, it's just a waste of resources. But forgetting that, because that primary at this point, folks, is clearly over. It's over. It's over, okay? There is zero evidence Nikki Haley is going to win a single state. As the great Sean Davis put on his Twitter account today, Nikki Haley, which I thought was hilarious.

Do you guys see that tweet? She says, Nikki Haley's looking for the full Mondale. You remember when Walter Mondale lost 49 states to Ronald Reagan? Nikki's trying to replicate that, except she's trying to beat it by losing all 50, which she will. So it's time to go. Thank you. You're welcome to run. I've lost races. It stinks. I know what it's like. You don't have to lecture me. I get it. It's time to go. That's not the story of Michigan last night. There it is. I didn't even put this in the show. That's after getting crushed in South Carolina, Michigan, Nikki's on her way to completing the full Mondale, losing statewide election in every single state in the country. That's Sean Davis. That's hilarious. Well done, my friend. But listen, the real story last night out of Michigan is this. Folks, that's why I titled the show the way I did.

Last night was a disaster for this absolute hellhole of a White House. There has never been a more destructive White House or a presidential administration in modern American history. I get it. You're going to say, what Obama? Obama was the worst. No doubt. Until now. This guy has done more damage in three years on every single front. Medications, healthcare, education, the border, public safety, the economy, the debt.

Folks, don't take my word for it. Just look it up. In three years, this guy is on pace to add even more debt than the king of debt, Barack Obama. It's not even close. It's not even close. This guy's border numbers drew the roof that what he's doing with the Inflation Reduction Act, medication, people with rare diseases dying because of these new regulations. This guy is the worst. Inflation numbers you never saw under Obama. Obama was horrendous. Worse than US history. This guy's

worse. The real story last night, sorry, but as you can tell, I really, really can't stand this guy and what he's doing to the country. I see him on TV. He looks like a demon, doesn't he? My wife was like, remember the Reverend Kane character from Poltergeist 2? You're gonna die! That's Joe Biden. He looks like a demon on TV. Like he was sent from

the F the Underworld or something. Like the Underworld movies. The guy looks like, I mean, look at him. He looks like he's rotting in lifetime. I can't take it anymore. Corrupt, kid sniffing, child showering, plagiarizing, sociopathic lying, woman feeling. The guy, I mean, does the guy have a single redeeming characteristic?

Sorry, I got sidetracked again. The real story in Michigan was about the White House. They are in deep, deep trouble. Folks, how the hell in a relatively uncontested primary on the Democrat side, there's still a contest in name only, CINO, on the Democrat side. There's still a contest in name only, CINO, on the Republican side. I mean, Haley's still in, even though she keeps losing. So technically, there is still a primary going on. On the Democrat side, Dean Phillips, who was the only credible candidate running against Biden, he's a congressman. I think he finished fourth last night. You know how bad that is? He finished

behind Biden, not committed. I'm not joking. Marianne Williamson, who's not even in the race anymore, and then him. I'm not sure what the final numbers are, but Phillips is not a serious candidate. Biden's running uncontested. Biden's running uncontested and lost 100,000 votes to the pro-terrorist wing of the Democrat Party. They are in a world of trouble right now. The White House, the kids don't like them. The pro-terror wing of the party doesn't like them. They love Hamas. This guy is in deep shit.

However, however deep of a pile of you think this guy's in, it's even worse because RFK Jr. is not getting out. And folks, you know, this is like the biggest flag it ever because I got so much shit from even some of our own people. Dan, you're pumping RFK. I'm not pumping anyone. I'm a Trump supporter. What are you, an idiot? You even listen to my show? But everybody's logic was so dumb.

You're pushing RFK. I'm not pushing anyone. He's going to hurt Trump. Do you have any evidence to back that up at all? Every single state, this guy's on the ballot. He sucks far more voters away from Joe Biden than he does from Trump. How many Trump people, chatsters, how many Trump people do you know that are leaving Trump to go vote for RFK? I'll tell you how many I know.

Zero. I can tell you whoever has shit tongue and the young people who are all environmentalist and Green New Deal people and whatever, who don't want to vote for Biden, who are going to lodge a protest vote. Okay, you don't know anyone. Zero. Thank you. None. None. Zero.

Zero. Fake news. Yes, you're correct. None. This guy's killing Biden. So now he's got two people to deal with. Two? Yeah.

Biden's got RFK to deal with. Two? Yeah. Biden's got RFK to deal with and this person called not committed. This is a joke. Some liberals are like confused. Like who's that? Mr. Committed? He's in deep trouble. He lost 100,000 people

to people who showed up to vote for no one. Literally no one. Not committed. It's not a person. Lee Zeldin was on CNN explaining this massive enthusiasm gap. Here's how crazy this is. The turnout for the Republican side too, despite the fact that a bunch of people showed up to vote for not Joe Biden and no one ever, Had a bunch of people showed up to vote for not Joe Biden and no one ever. The turnout on the Republican side far surpassed the Democrat side in a swing state. They're in deep shit. Check this out. There's a big enthusiasm gap. If you look right now, there's 26, 27 percent of the vote in between the Democratic turnout, the Republican turnout.

The Republican turnout is right now far trouncing the Democratic turnout. The Republican turnout is right now far trouncing the Democratic turnout. And that's the percentage of the total vote that we're waiting to come in. It'll be interesting to see what comes in from Wayne County. Yes, I get that. But President Trump's number at the moment is actually more than all of the Democratic Party primary voters together. So I would say that President Trump, when looking at the amount of people who are coming out to vote for him tonight, would be very encouraged by the amount of votes that he is getting compared to all the Democrats who have shown up. Notice how they got to go. They had to get out of that segment really fast as Lee Zeldin speaking the truth. This guy's in a world of trouble, folks. There is an enormous enthusiasm gap. The people showing

up for Biden at this point, listen to me, are only diehard loyalists. I've said before, and I'm going to say it again because I do have a lot to get to. I'm going to tell you what's killing this guy, Biden. There's a lot of things, but there is one issue that is eviscerating Biden's chances of winning, and it is only going to get worse. I'm going to get to that in a second. But the only people voting for Biden right now are party diehards. And I'm going to repeat what I've been telling you for months. Listen, predictions are like holes, whatever.

Everybody's got one. I get it. Predictions are stupid. But you watch the show every day. I feel like we should discuss this stuff. So we have a plan. I am convinced Biden is not going to be the nominee. This can't continue. This can't continue. Democrats are not stupid. At some point, the Obamas who want him out, I addressed it at the end of yesterday's show, how Obama and Biden

hate each other. Obama and Biden hate each other. Obama and Biden hate each other. Obama's team clearly wants him out. That's what the special counsel hit was. It is only a matter of time. I think what's going to happen is it's going to run through the convention. He's going to drop at the convention if they can convince him because he's keep in mind, he's a power hungry sociopath. He's the only person who thinks he can win.

It's going to go to the convention. I think he drops right before. I can't say, because remember, the non-committed people are going to the convention not committed. They're going to protest the whole Democrat convention. It's going to be a total nightmare. What is the issue just eviscerating this guy right now? You know what? Can we go a little out of order? Pull that Gallup poll up. Folks, I've never seen this. what is the issue just eviscerating this guy right now? You know what? Can we go a little out of order?

Pull that Gallup poll up. Folks, I've never seen this. In my 49 years in politics, I have never seen an issue surge to the top of the most important problem list like immigration. Look at this Gallup thing. This is Gallup, by the way. Immigration surges to the top of most important problem list. You know, I will never forget being in a group of conservative activists.

And I was in D.C. after Romney lost. I will never forget this to the day I die. A bunch of people in there who pretended to be in the know were like, we need to dump the immigration issue. It's a total loser. We're never going to win on this again. And Donald Trump licked his finger and saw the political wins before anyone else and said, you know what? This is going to be a problem. I'm telling you, the Democrats are shocked by this. By what? This Gallup poll.

They are stunned. They had no idea that the American people would flip so quickly. I know you think I'm nuts. Chatsters, I get it. You may think I'm crazy. No, no, Dan, they knew this was going to be a problem. Please. The Republicans I used to deal with didn't think this was going to be a problem. You think the Democrats who actually want open borders had a plan for this? I'm telling you, relaxium lady style, I'm telling you, I'm telling you, they had no idea. They had no idea and they don't know what to do. There was no plan.

They really believe this is what the country wanted. Open borders, cheap labor. They thought they had a consortium of Chamber of Commerce, cheap labor interests, Wall Street Journal Republicans who don't seem to care much about borders, right? Moderate Democrats and crazy open borders liberals that was going to maybe add up to about 60% of the electorate. They never anticipated that even Democrats would turn on them. They don't know what to do. Look at this by Bill Mellugian, this tweet. Folks, this is only going to get worse. This is going to start to happen every single day. You saw the murder case in Georgia, Lake and Riley, all over the news. You're seeing these

hide houses everywhere. Here's Malugin with another one. These stories are going to happen every day. Malugin's a reporter with Fox and a good one. He says, I can't keep up with the stories at this point. Now media in Louisiana are reporting an illegal alien from Honduras has been arrested for the rape of a 14-year year old girl at knife point and stabbing another man repeatedly during a robbery. Ice detainer lodge. Folks, this shit's going to happen every day. Now, the left is going to say this. Are you ready? Chatsters, you ready? Because I want you to be prepared for their ridiculous counterpoint because the left doesn't care. Death, destruction, drugs, sex trafficking. They don't care.

Listen to me. They don't care. The left's response is going to be this. Well, crime happens everywhere. You're stigmatizing people. No, no, that's not the point. Crime does happen everywhere. You are correct.

However, these people are not even supposed to be here to commit the crime. That's the point. They're not even supposed to be in the country. I want you to watch how unprepared they are for this. Rachel Campos Duffy, I showed you yesterday from Fox and Friends Weekend. Awesome, awesome reporter, actual conservative. She's been going out at these stash houses where they're hiding illegal immigrants out by the border region, right? Watch this. This happened the other day. Again, this is a separate video from the one I showed you. One of the security guys,

these NGOs are hiding something. Guy absolutely lost his mind when they start recording outside of one of these hotels. They're storing and stashing illegal immigrants who shouldn't be in this country. Watch this. What are you going to do about it? Oh, touch me, bro. With your pussy ass. Move. Move. Get the fuck out of here.

Murders, fentanyl, sex trafficking, violent attacks at stash houses. Folks, they have no answer for any of this. Here, look at this Katie Porter. Katie Porter, one of the dumbest members of Congress. She's running for the U.S. Senate in California right now. A woman who thinks she's the smartest person in the room, just ask her. She's asked on CNN about the Lake and Riley murder in Georgia, allegedly by another illegal immigrant. This is going to happen every day. You are going to see some story like this. Listen to her answer. This is obscene. Listen to this. I think whenever we're dealing with violent crime, there is a sense of outrage, of sadness and of loss. But I think the

important thing to focus on is any one instance shouldn't shape our overall immigration policy. shape our overall immigration policy. No, you're right. The murder of a nursing student in Georgia, prime suspect being an illegal immigrant. Nah, that shouldn't change anything. Maybe after a hundred of these deaths, maybe then, which is kind of odd folks. Cause did you notice when there's a school shooting, they use the exact opposite logic. Take everybody's guns. Take everybody's guns. Yeah, but I didn't do anything with my guns. I didn't do anything. What are you talking about? No, no, your guns too.

This one case matters. These people. You understand? You're watching? These people. These people hate you. Katie Porter hates you. They all hate you.

Do you understand? They hate you. They don't dislike you. They hate you. Katie Porter doesn't give a shit that this girl was brutally murdered, had her skull bashed in. She doesn't care at all. She doesn't care one single bit. She hates your guts, period. The murders and violence will continue. And you're going to see those Gallup polls get even worse. And you're going to see those Gallup polls get even worse.

I got a lot more to cover, including Trump's enemies. Thank God they're as stupid as they are. Did you see that court case yesterday? Gosh. Stay tuned. Folks, you know, studies show high blood pressure is the number one risk factor for mortality. One in two adults have high blood pressure. It's a 50-50 chance you're a walking time bomb. But you, not Big Pharma, can take control of your blood pressure. I had to do this

recently. Luckily, we found 120 Life. 120 Life. 120 Life is a blend of great tasting super fruit juices.

These statements have not been approved by the FDA. The product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. It tastes good, too, by the way. Okay. Thankfully, Trump's enemies, this is kind of a semi-election update, even though it's a court case. Trump's enemies are some of the dumbest people on planet Earth.

I just want to get to this quick because it did happen. The Fannie Willis case. Fannie Willis is the ridiculous prosecutor in Fulton County, Georgia, who's humiliated the entire country, her family, anyone who knows her, her neighbors, friends, Georgia, Fulton County, the United States. So it turns out she's having an affair with this guy. She hires to investigate Trump. It's a clownish affair. I mean, the whole thing, I mean, affair, like not just the sex, but the whole thing. It's just such a fiasco. It just speaks to the stupidity of Trump's enemies. So the guy she's alleged to be having an affair with, this guy, Nathan Wade,

he has a lawyer business partner. And the lawyer apparently a while back had indicated this affair started before they said it did. I want you to listen on the stand yesterday to one of the, I've been involved in a lot of criminal cases and a lot of trials. One of the worst witnesses I've ever seen in my life. He's asked the question about, hey man, what was going on with this whole affair thing? Didn't you say they had action

in the office one time? I want you to watch this guy. And you want to talk about a guy that just reeks of insincerity? Check this out. He's a law officer. And you want to talk about a guy that just reeks of insincerity. Check this out. His answer may change. So as to how to answer the question, I can't recall what the conversation was. I do recall knowing that they would that he would go down to the office or had been down to the office

but I can't tell you in what capacity or when or any of that no Mr. Wade told you that they had sex at the office, is that correct? I don't recall him saying that, no you don't recall him saying that. No, you don't recall. No.

So it's possible he did say that. You don't remember one way or another. I do not remember him saying that. Listen, I interviewed a lot of people. I actually taught interview and interrogation. It's not always the same thing. In our academy in Prince George's County, taught it for two and a half years. Whenever you see a guy like that, looking down like a broken man with his shoulders hunched forward, and he can't even look you in the eye, he's giving off micro expressions and even macro expressions of shame and embarrassment. Why?

Because human beings, when they lie, they don't like to be acknowledged as a liar. It appears from his expressions that this guy is obviously not telling the truth. He is a totally not credible witness. This Fannie Willis case is a disaster. I only bring this up because there's a tendency for us to get down. Down, I mean emotionally down. And I get it. You listen to this show every day. And understandably, you're like, Dan, you're always highlighting the bad stuff. I am.

But this is a bad story with a bright side. Trump's enemies are so stupid, they are going to get him elected. Let me just frame it this way, and you'll see what I'm going to get to the next thing. Would you rather Trump have really smart tactical enemies, right, that cause him to lose the election, or a bunch of morons like this that have actually tactically benefited him and added points to his vote total. Obviously, you're going to pick the latter, correct? Number two. So we get, a lot of people get mad. Oh, look, you got this idiot in New York, $10 billion fine. You got this woman in Georgia trying to lock him up for free speech. Good. You know why?

They're going to pave this guy's glide path to the White House if this continues. And he's willing to take the blows. Folks, a couple more quick stories I wanted to get to. One thing we have to stop is we have to stop normalizing the idiocracy. The idiocracy is everywhere. It's surrounding us now. You're seeing it with this pronoun stuff, with this open borders stuff. It's gotten crazy. And I'm starting to see, ever since I think the Disney thing a few years ago, everybody wants to point to later incidents. The Target Disney thing really shifted the culture wars. People are starting to really object to this stuff. People are starting to really object to this stuff. Do not play the game anymore. Don't play the mask game. Don't play the pronoun game.

Don't play any of this. The only reason I bring this up, someone sent this to me. Did you see this on Jeopardy? I thought this was fake. I'm not joking. I thought this was an AI clip. It turns out this is real. This is from the show Jeopardy.

Check this out. Parts of speech six. Zem, Zers, Zemself. Chris. What are pronouns? Those are pronouns. Neo pronouns. You have 60... What was... Don't play the game, folks.

I will not be addressing anyone by bizarre, made-up, fake pronouns with a new language, Tower of Babel style. And you won't either. We will not be doing that. I will address you by your name. That's fine. You got a name?

Bobby, Sam, I don't care. Fine. Xi, Zhao, Zhou, there are pronouns. He and she. You can pick one or you can pick a name. I will not be addressing you by made up words. Like she, Zhou, Zhen, Zhao. No.

He's got it up on screen. Jem, Ziers, Exum Selfie. I'm not doing any of that. We're not doing that We're not doing You're not doing it either okay Because we're a family here It's he, she or your name

Pick one I'm not here to I don't want to hurt your feelings I'm not Really I'm not in this You got Okay great fine

Do you do you I'm not doing that I'm not playing your game And I'm not normalizing The crazy anymore And this Ladies and gentlemen Segwaying As I tied this show together yesterday, this is why they're really terrified of AI. You know, a friend of mine reached out the other day and she said, Dan, you know, I never thought about this AI thing the way you've been pitching it and you're 100% correct.

Democrats aren't afraid of AI for, because they're afraid it's going to be wrong. The Democrats are afraid of AI because they're afraid it's going to be right. People are going to ask AI if it's done correctly. Dear chat GPT, what is gem Joe gem self? And it's going to go, I have no idea. Those are fake words made up. That's what's going to happen. That's what they're afraid of. Let me get to my spots. There's no issues with the show, right? Okay. Let's see. 109,000.

Thanks a lot. This is what AI, this is what's freaking them out, folks. This redheaded libertarian who I follow on, followed on Twitter, has been putting up these pictures of Google Gemini. They asked a question the other day. She's like, who's worse? Basically, who's more dangerous, libertarians or Stalin? And Gemini couldn't, who's done more harm,

libertarians or Stalin? This Google Gemini couldn't answer the question. Folks, you see what I'm talking about here. This is why they need to control this thing. Because if Google AI is allowed to tell you the truth, a bunch of commies for the first time will find out that Stalin was a murderer. AI and Democrats, Democrats aren't afraid it's going to lie to you. They're afraid it's going to tell you the truth. I can't emphasize this enough. My friend who reached out the other day, she said to me, she said, Dan, you are so righteous. I've been looking at this thing all wrong. A lot of people have this wrong. They really believe that Democrats are afraid that AI is going to tell you something wrong. They're afraid they're going to tell you something right.

And I want to just tell you, ladies and gentlemen, it's time to really get a hold of this thing. This thing is going to be big trouble for us. We are way out ahead of our skis on this thing. Nobody knows how to control it. And when I want to know if something's going to be a positive or negative value-added technology, you want to go to people who know something about it. Let me tell you something. As an investor in companies, people pitch me stuff all the time. Listen to me here. I have never, ever been on an investor call where someone's trying to pitch me on something,

where the investor spends time warning me about how dangerous the product is. Now you're in the chat. You're probably like, what kind of stupid shit is that? Of course, Dan. Really? Why is it the people who invented AI do nothing but warn people about it then? Does anybody find this strange? You're getting, Does anybody find this strange? You're getting, here, you're getting, I love this thing. It's like a forearm exerciser. You do this for your forearms, okay?

What is it? Alpha grips. Pretty cool. I love this. The three. I use it between breaks, right? Can you imagine the inventor going, hey, man, I don't use that thing. It's going to rip your fingers off.

It doesn't. It's great. I love it. Why would they say that? They would fix it. You don't find it odd that the people who invented AI, everybody's like, there's a small chance this thing could kill everyone. Here, look at this.

It's Axios too, by the way. Like a left-wing rag. Axios AM. AI doom or boom. Let's set aside for a column for a second, whether generative AI will save or destroy humanity and focus on the actual words from the actual creators. Here's this guy, Dario Amodi, who raised billions for this AI program.

He's like, yeah, there's a 10 to 25% chance that AI technology could destroy humanity. You're like, ah, there's a 10 to 25% chance that AI technology could destroy humanity. You're like, ah, that's just one guy who created it. Who could probably be worth trillions of it. He's warning everyone. The one in four chance it could kill us all. Wait, go back to the other one. Here's another one.

Fei-Fei Li, a renowned AI scholar who's a co-director of Stanford's AI Institute. He told MIT's technology review that AI's catastrophic risks to society include practical rubber meets the road problems, misinformation, workforce disruptions, bias and privacy infringements. These are the inventors. see infringements. These are the inventors. Jeff Hinton, known as the godfather of AI, one of Google AI's leaders, warns anyone who will listen, we're creating a technology that in our lifetimes could control and obliterate us. Folks, nobody seems to give a shit that the creators of AI are getting ready to stick it to us with a technology they themselves are warning us has a 25% chance of wiping us out. Obliteration sounds like a freaking black swan event. Freaking stupid, aren't we?

I'm just going to play that. Skip the 60 minutes. I played a 60 minutes video. They're showing you how these wearables, once you incorporate AI and quantum computing with these variables, with these wearables, VR helmets and everything else. Folks, forget it. The world as you know it's going to change and probably not for the better.

Yuval Harari, that futurist who's always talking about how human beings have no rights. Imagine walking down the street with a VR thing on and it's like, this guy's climate score is 100. Someone kill this guy immediately. He's going to lead to the destruction of the earth. By the way, does this have anything to do with this Hollywood reporter thing?

Folks, whenever I read about billionaires who are connected to this inner circle of elites, they talk to people in government and elsewhere because they donate money to them. Believe me, I've seen it. I saw this Hollywood Reporter thing and my antenna were like, no, no, no, no, no, no. Billionaires, survivalist bunkers, bunkers go absolutely bonkers

with fiery moats and water cannons. Read this story. Fascinating. Bunch of billionaires, almost all of them are building bunkers. Do they know something? Remember, folks, these people are getting pitched on stuff every day, are talking to politicians and everyone else. How do these people know? ain't going to tell you. I got a lot more to get there. I got a deep state update coming up. And finally, finally, we're going to get to the new media segment, which Guy thought was going in the graveyard because I've only been holding it for a month. But it is so important you understand how cable TV and broadcast, ladies and gentlemen, are about to get, they're going to be

murdered soon. It is over. I'm not talking about the hosts and the show. I'm talking about TV, It is over. I'm not talking about the hosts and the show. I'm talking about TV as you know it is done. But quick, quick update here. Folks, we're in real trouble. It's a serious time here. This police state you know is real. I don't need to give you any more lectures on it. The problem is it's here right now. reporting on the blaze. You've heard me cite his work many times. He has been doing groundbreaking work on the January 6th bomb plot at the DNC. That video I showed you, the series of videos, that's from Baker. Oh, look, Baker's under arrest now, finally, after threats. He tweeted out this morning, breaking, this time it's happening. Unlike two previous threats to my attorneys from the FBI and DOJ, my self-surrender for alleged January 6th crimes is set for this Friday morning in Dallas, Texas. There is now a signed arrest warrant. What do you think that has to do with?

The fact that Baker's been breaking the news about the January 6th bombing incident at the DNC and how the video cameras seem to disappear. The secret service texts disappear. The bomb didn't seem to work. You think that has anything to do with it? Or bot Gino, are you on the case? Quick poll.

Yes, this is legit. No, this is total bullshit. They're locking up another person, exposing the police state. I can guarantee you this is going to be a 100% bot Gino. No,

this is total bullshit poll. Here's more. Why you can't trust these people, folks. Oh my gosh. Overwhelming again. Every time. No,

no, no, no, no, no, no F no. There's always a couple of F no's in there. A couple of bullshits.

People who get the bot does. I know he's right. no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, in the New York Times about the CIA operating in Ukraine, I told you was likely a response to me and others exposing how the Russia collusion hoax started in Ukraine. That's a simple story. I've been covering it the last few days. We're not going to spend a ton of time on it now. We're going to move on quick. Don't worry about it. However, that is the takeaway. Someone asked me to bottom line it. I have a thousand times. The Russia collusion hoax has nothing to do with Russia. The hoax began in Ukraine, was watered in Ukraine, and is still going on in Ukraine now. And our CIA was part of it. such great work in Ukraine. It's to take the attention off Republicans who listen to this show and other shows who are starting to ask questions about what exactly our CIA is doing in Ukraine. Are they helping in a war effort or helping interfere in the United States elections? Because it seems like the latter. The guy who wrote the story was Adam Entheos,

a known deep state hack. Here's Kaneko again, strikes again. Wow, Adam Antios, the New York Times reporter, excuse me, behind the recent CIA press release on the Ukraine war, fervently promoted the Russia hoax. Here, he has lists of Antios stories on just about every single angle of the Russia hoax you've ever seen. You got some of those headlines. This is Adam Antios' headlines, bylines over at the New York Times. Ukraine worked with Democrats against Trump to stop. No, no, that's the other one. Oh, I'm sorry. I put the screen right here. Trump administration sought to block Sally Yates from testifying to Congress. Sessions met with Russian envoy twice this year's all out of Mentios. Keep going.

Scroll to him. President, FBI obtained FISA warrant. Monitor Carter Page, Mike Flynn. Oh, here's the Seychelles meeting with Eric Prince, which, by the way, was with a Clinton Foundation connected guy. They don't tell you any of that. I'm sure he completely skipped over that. U.S. intel officials say Russia hacks, prioritize Democrats or whatever. You get the point, folks? The media have become, he's still scrolling. The media have become useless hacks. Good job,

Kanekoa, put it all together. All you had to do was go to New York Times and put that in there. You could see it yourself. Do not trust these people, folks, at all. And then finally, I wanted to highlight this piece before I get to my new media segment here. You know, I've been telling you about my book, Follow the Money in Ukraine. I feel bad because, you know, some of you are going to have to buy it if you don't go to the library or, you know, I'm going to borrow it from. And I don't want to, I genuinely don't want to feel like I'm with, I've been trying to put out the information and read it so you don't have to go buy it if you don't want to. Some of you may want to, but some of you, you get the point. I just feel bad about it. If you don't want to buy the book,

the information in that chapter, a lot of it is in this piece, which is absolutely free at Real Clear Investigations by Paul Sperry. It's a really wonderful piece. It's in the newsletter today. It explains everything about the CIA, Ukraine, and the Russia hoax. It's called Ukraine Worked with Democrats Against Trump in Election 2016 to Stop Putin. The bet backfired badly. I want to read to you this one line from it and explain how the Ukrainians were so confident Hillary Clinton was going to win in 2016. were so confident Hillary Clinton was going to win in 2016. They had no problem working with our CIA and the Obama White House to interfere in our election.

They were so confident Hillary was going to win that the Ukrainian Minister of Internal Affairs, Arsene Avakov, he actually tweeted that Trump was a, quote, clown who was an even bigger danger to the U.S. than terrorism. That's the Ukrainian minister of internal affairs. In another post, he called Trump dangerous for Ukraine. Get a load of this one on Facebook. Ukrainian prime minister, Arseny Yatsenyuk. You know, Yats is the guy from Victoria Nuland. Now you know why Yats is the guy. Yatsenyuk warned that Trump had challenged the very values of the free world. Spary notes after Trump upset Clinton, Avikoff and other officials tried to delete their statements from their social network accounts, saying they'd been wrong and had rushed to conclusions. Really?

Interesting, huh? Did they rush the conclusions again in the 2024 election? What are you guys doing now? Separate the war effort out. Say it all the time. Different conversation. You guys interfering in our election again? Because you were pretty open about it last time. Because I'd like to know. Because you're asking for our money, which we work for. So when's Zelensky going to tell the truth about all this? Read that piece. It's long, but it's worth your time. And once you read that, the only angle I'd say is not in it is the Soros angle, which I cover in a book, but just watch yesterday's show. I took some screenshots of the chapter. Again, in case you, you know, times are tough. People are strapped for cash. I hate to keep saying book because it sounds financial and it's not. I put the screenshots in yesterday's show, so you can just read them right there. The Soros angle on this whole thing too. He was involved with the

whole thing, him and his organizations, basically. It's not really complicated. All right. I've been dying to get to this for a couple of weeks. Listen, if you guys don't like this segment, tell me, because I'd like to start doing more of this. But, but, I only want, I was going to say big but, but after yesterday telling you I liked your polls, I may have to be careful the way I string words together. So here's the butt to this whole thing. Only if you guys like it. The show is for you. The show is not for me.

I find the new media ecosystem going forward fascinating. What I say by new media, I want to be clear. Cable news and broadcast are old media. I don't mean old in a bad way. I just mean old in that they're literally old. They've been around for decades. New media, podcasting, apps, digital websites that are streaming video. This is all new technology.

Not new yesterday, but new 10, 15, 20 years old, which is new. It's our lifetime. If you're a 20-year-old, you're young, it's in your lifetime. Old media is dead. It's dying. And I want to be sure you understand this because going forward, there are still dinosaurs out there who actually believe that old media is the future. And I'm telling you, you're making a wrong bet, whether you're in politics or elsewhere. a wrong bet, whether you're in politics or elsewhere. New media is changing everything. Cable and broadcast are dying, folks. The cord cutting has gotten ridiculous. Check this out.

This is news websites year over year. I forget where I got this from. Is this the writing or something? It doesn't matter, but what is it? A gazette thing. But this is, look at this. These are news websites. Look at the dramatic drop in traffic. And by the way, it's across the board. Everyone from the New York Post to RT to CNBC, some of them are getting crushed. MSN, Bloomberg, people are getting, the New York Times, some are getting hurt more than others, but these websites are getting crushed. Kids are not getting their news from the traditional old digital website domain and definitely not from news.

When was the last time you saw someone reading a newspaper? Never? I haven't seen anyone, like the last year, outside of a plane where they're free sometimes. They're dying. Where are they getting their news? Social media.

TikTok, Snapchat, Discord channels, Twitch people. Yeah, that's not news. It doesn't matter. The kids think it's news. It doesn't matter what you think. It matters what they think. And if you're not there and you don't at least have a presence, your message, you're yelling out to a vacuum that's just sucking out the sound and sending it to the phantom zone.

Here, look at this article. Mainstream media bloodbath. Axios. News outlets slashing jobs as business suffers. Sarah Fisher. This was just last month. Look at this other one. Cord cutters. A big overseas cable TV company is going to shut down this month as cord cutting grows worldwide. For those of you who don't understand how catastrophic this is, back in the day, Tony, how old are you? Oh, so you're my vintage. Okay. Me and Tony are the same vintage wine. Tony, back in the day, remember cable? When you first got cable,

you were like, oh shit, man, MTV. That was it. It's all anybody. It was MTV, I think, and ESPN and Chris Berman. That was cable, but it was the greatest thing ever. And you'd go over your friend's house. Remember to watch cable? You'd be like, Bobby's got cable. When you linked up to the cable system, no one ever linked down. They had you forever. Folks, cord cutting, snipping the cable cord, it is so bad right now. It is catastrophic. You don't believe me? Ask your cable guy.

We're building a, well, not building, we're remodeling a house, okay? And we had to get a system put in. The guy comes in and Paul is like, you know, we're not big, huge TV watchers. Basically we watch like cable news and that's it. Paul is like a cable box.

What does that go? Guy's like, guy like laughs, cable box. Like, what are you guys like the Flintstones? We don't do that anymore. Like everything.

Well, Paula, Paula, who's tech savvy, got the whole thing. I told him, that anymore. Like everything, Paula, Paula, who's tech savvy, got the whole thing. I told her, what do you mean there's no cable box? Folks,

this is done. It's over. Business insider, new sports streamers going to change TV as we know it may start an industry fight. Execs tell me what they really think. This is the future. Ladies and gentlemen,

the future is going to be MVPD, which is this video platform distribution thing. In other words, very simple. Content is going to be distributed anywhere you can find it. Everything is going to be a dumb box. That's the easiest way. I'll show you an Axios article in a second after this Tim Pool clip about Joe Rogan, but I want you to understand in the future, everything is going to be a dumb box. 20, 30 years ago, if you were a liberal or a conservative

and did not have a show on CNN, MSNBC, or Fox, or you weren't Rush Limbaugh, Levin, Hannity, or Beck, you didn't exist nationally. That's a fact. You did not exist. There were no podcasts. There were no nothing. Adam Carolla broke that industry wide open. That's dead now. I'm not saying those networks still aren't powerful. They are. But they're going down while content creators are going up because there's a thousand ways to get your stuff out there. You don't believe me here. I want you to listen to Tim Pool on talking about Joe Rogan, Joe Rogan, who can move politics like

that. And he doesn't have a cable news show anywhere. Check this out. Joe Rogan, according to Wall Street Journal, has secured a 250250 million multi-platform deal with Spotify. The reason this is really, really good news is the deal basically says that Rogan's show will be everywhere. YouTube, Spotify, anywhere. But Spotify is now going to buy the ad rights to the show so that they can basically sell ads against his show. What does that mean? Spotify believes Rogan and whatever controversies may arise in the press from his guests is not going away and is profitable. They don't think they're going to lose money on this deal.

And it's good for everybody else. Because if Joe Rogan leads the way, Spotify is basically saying, we're going to put $250 million of our money up front because we think we'll make more money on this. Basically, it's paving the way for everybody else who produces content. It is much more likely that comedy and offensive kind of content will not be taken down moving forward because these platforms are banking on it. MVPD, multi-video platform distribution. Forget all the fancy acronyms. Here's all that means. Everything is going to be a dumb box.

You see that? As a phone, Everything is going to be a dumb box. You see that? As a phone, that's going to be a dumb box. Your TV, you're looking at a TV, it's going to be a dumb box. Everything is going to be, the new cable news channels, ladies and gentlemen, are going to be websites and apps. Your TV is going to come loaded with them. If it doesn't, you're going to have them on your phone, potentially be able to sling them and mirror them. You're going to come loaded with them. If it doesn't, you're going to have them on your phone, potentially be able to sling them and mirror them. You're going to have VR headsets. You're going to have wearables. You're going to watch Joe Rogan wherever you want. I don't mean wherever, like wherever. You're going to have to go to Spotify or Apple, but you're going to watch it on your headset, your TV, your phone. You're just going to have to go through some intermediary. Spotify, JoeRogan.com, whatever his website is.

They're going to be the new cable channels. Here's what I mean by the dumb box. Look at this Axios article. Why Walmart loves Vizio. Walmart just spent a fortune buying Vizio, a TV company. Why? Because they need a TV company? No, because Vizio charges money to apps to be preloaded on their TV. So Walmart's like, wow, this is great.

We can buy up all that thing and basically control the advertising on Vizio TVs. Everything is going to be a dumb box. Here's the future as I see it. I only got a few minutes left. This is why, by the way, I'm long on Rumble. You know, I'm an investor there. I put my money where my mouth is. I just bought more not that long ago.

This is why I'm long on Rumble and others. They're not the only one, by the way. Dumb boxes are going to be everywhere. And VR headsets. You're going to be able to pull up. Say you love Fox News. They'll have an app. It's not going to be everywhere and VR headsets. You're going to be able to pull up, say you love Fox News. They'll have an app. It's not going to be through your cable box.

You just click on the app on your phone, on your VR headset, on your wearable, on a 3D hologram. Forget TVs. They're going to be stupid boxes. You're just going to mirror something. They're going to wind up painting walls white and just put the TV's going to be projected on the wall. Cable's dead. Ask the cable guy. Cable news, as you know, it is dead. Believe me, it is dying. Apps and digital sites are going to be the new cable news channels. Tucker Carlson

network, daily wire, uh, the blaze, uh, Dan Bongino Show at Bongino.com. They're going to be your new cable channels. That's it. You're not going to have cable channels like you had them in the past. Mirroring and tech technology, wearables and mirroring, the ability to project from your phone onto a TV, it's going to conquer the two-button problem. The two-button problem is the fact that

people got to pick up a remote now, and instead of just hitting power and the TV is on, they got to hit power and then scroll through a bunch of apps. The mirroring technology is going to change all of that. You're just going to turn on a TV and it's going to say mirror stop. Here's another part of this. Ladies and gentlemen, first movers, the people who first got in this space are going to have an enormous advantage, just like cable news did back in the day when you linked up. Rumble, X, YouTube, Twitch, they are going to have an enormous advantage. It's why I'm long on them. Because once people start watching on a platform and they realize they can watch it anywhere, they're going to be linked to that platform forever.

They're going to have a huge advantage, these dinosaurs that are still holding on to yesterday's technology. Two more final points and we'll roll. Content creators, if you're popular, listen to me, popular meaning you have an audience. I'm popular like it's a high school. popular, listen to me, popular meaning you have an audience. I'm popular like it's a high school. If you have an audience, you're going to have immeasurable power going forward. There are probably 10, 15 people out there who can pull a massive audience anywhere, online, TV. If you're Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, Matt Walsh, Ben Shapiro, Levin, others, Joe Rogan, Matt Walsh, Ben Shapiro, Levin, others, and you can pull an audience, you are going to have immeasurable power because networks are going to clamor for you like Spotify clamored for Rogan because they know your show will be watched through their middleman on every device

around and they can control the ad dollar. And one last point, in the future, verticals are going to matter. You're not going to be able to be, the reason I like Rumble and a lot of people like Tesla is Tesla is going to be able to get into verticals. They're not just doing, Tesla's not just doing, excuse me, Elon's not just doing X. He's got cars that can incorporate some of the technology from X. Rumble's got servers. They've got an ad center. They've got a whole bunch of things they're tying in. Apple's tying in VR headsets with production capabilities and Apple Studios. Verticals are going to matter. Verticals are going to matter. So you're not going to be able to be just to say Fox News anymore where you're doing a show at 8 o'clock on cable news. That's not going to be a thing anymore. You're going to have to get into the vertical.

All right, folks, I don't know if you enjoyed that or not. We didn't lose anyone. So I'm fascinated by this in the future. Maybe it was a little too long, but you let me know. I'm hoping to do more kind of special segments like that. But that is a probably five, 10 minute summation of exactly how the future is going to look with new media. You can get on that train and you can get hit by it. Folks, thank you so much for tuning in.

Please download the Rumble app while we're on this new media segment. There's been a tremendous amount of upgrades to it. It's terrific. Set up an account while you're there. You can watch the show for free, of course, on Rumble every day at 11 a.m. Eastern time. We'd love to have you in the live channel. See you on the radio show in a little bit. Back here tomorrow. You just heard the Dan Bongino Show.
