All America all the time.
Sit down, buckle up, and get ready for the Dan Bongino show.
So, folks, when I was a kid, they did this show.
I don't know if it was like one day at a time or whatever show it was.
Now, it wasn't that.
It was one of those half-hour sitcoms.
I'm probably aging myself as this rotting 51-year-old meat bucket
with severe osteoarthritis walking around.
Like, I can barely move.
However, they did the show and the pitch for the show was,
we're going to do this show live because the shows were recorded.
Now, you know, I do my show live every day from my studio,
but as you can see today by the different background,
the show is live from the road.
Why am I telling you this?
Am I telling you about a stupid sitcom from the 80s that they did it live?
Because everybody tuned into that show,
some of you in the chat may remember what it was, you help me out,
because they wanted to see someone screw something up
because it wasn't taped and you couldn't fix it.
with this road show which i i'm i absolutely wanted to do i'm like i don't care where i am i could be on
freaking mars we are not watching the rnc and on the first anniversary of charlie the treachery we're doing a
show no matter what so if this thing goes swimmingly today from start to finish
i'll be a little stunned so just hang in there and if we have a technical meltdown you can live with us
through it and we can laugh about it another time. So this is going to be amazing. I got a lot to get
to today. Obviously, the first anniversary of, I don't even know what to call it. A tragedy seems like
underselling it. A murder, an assassination, the political martyr of our time, Charlie, want to talk
about that. We have the RNC to cover. Vince is there. Haley's there. Producer Jim is there. I'm not
there. I want to get a quick take from Vince about what the energy is like on the ground.
And I thought the speech last night by President Trump was incredible. I mean, I got to tell,
I had a hard time looking away. There were a couple of times I was hungry. I had a thing I was
out all day yesterday. And I'm like, I don't even want, I got to just watch the end of this.
So I got a lot to get to. Stay tuned. It's going to be a great show today. I got a ton of material.
We got some highlights from that. And a bunch of things I want to talk about with you,
the Bongino Army. Thanks for being here. Hey, if you already know what medication works,

on the ground in Dallas.
I'm not in Dallas.
So I need someone who's there.
We're going to do this live.
Remember, we're doing it live.
We're going to go to our friends, Vince Colon Ace.
Vince is on the ground.
Vince has been experiencing the RNC firsthand with his finger on the polls.
The great Vince Colon Ace, the king of morning podcasting.
Check them out, rumble.com slash Vince 8 a.m.
Every day.
Vince, thanks for joining us.
Oh, my gosh.
So I'm so glad to be joining you from Dallas.
It's great to talk to you today, man.
It's great to talk to you live.
I'm actually glad we're already this far in.
And so we'll see how this goes.
So Vince, you're on the ground there.
One of the first things you brought up to me, we were kind of chatting before the show a little bit.
I've been to these R&Cs before you have when you're in the business.
I've done him as a secret service agent, as an activist, as a candidate, as a media guy, like you and me, the security at these things.
I mean, we're glad, thankfully, but the security can make the logistics kind of tough.
Tell them what you were telling me.
I it's just well first of all it's insane like you have to basically plan a two-hour commute to go two blocks
that's essentially how you get through all of this especially because like to get into an event like this
you know there's like a million different entrances based on whether or not you're a member of the media or you're a delegate or you're a
VIP or you're a member of law enforcement the whole thing is kind of an incomprehensible way to get into the building and that's just by design
you know they're trying to secure this building the left's trying to assassinate president trump all the time
so I think everybody who's going understands you have to have a high security level
for an event like this.
I will say that I want to hand it to people who are in your line of work,
who are in your previous line of work, Dan,
all these Secret Service agents who are standing out there
and all the other federal law enforcement
and local law enforcement who are supporting it,
they're doing it with a lot of cheer,
like almost too much happiness.
They're like, they're really nice right now.
And they're being super nice to everybody directing them places.
And I keep thinking, it is so hot outside.
How are you in such a good mood?
Like, it is like, it's over 100 degrees here yesterday in Dallas.
It's going to be like that again today.
And they're just sweating it out all day, smiling, directing people and securing the president of the United States.
So they're doing a great job.
Yeah, I mean, it's one thing, for those of you out there in our military or law enforcement, you know Vince and I both.
I don't ever speak for Vince, but I will hear because we love you guys.
Like, this is your home.
You will always be at the tip of the spear for us.
If there was a totem pole of people we love and respect, you're in.
But to sit out there in 100 degrees with bullet resistant body armor on, in a.
suit with your tie like snugged up so no possible air can be exchanged with the outside world
is absolutely brutal. But give us the take from inside the arena. And I'm going to get to this
in a segment in a minute, but you know, we'll let you roll. I really appreciate it. But there was
a perception before by the left wing, you know, a goon squad media. They were trying to put out
there, oh, this thing's going to suck. No one's going to show up. They said the same thing about the
UFC at the White House. This thing is terrible. Meanwhile, I was there. It was like the greatest event I'd
ever seen. No one's going to show up. Look at these stupid Republicans first midterm convention.
It's a failure. It hadn't even happened yet. I'm not there, but I watched on television last night.
It looked pretty freaking energetic to me, man. It's through the roof, dude. It's so there's a couple of
practical explanations for that too. These are dedicated Republican delegates. These are people who are
into Republican politics. They've worked very hard to try to get the president elected in
previous elections. Here they are with the privilege of being in the room with the president
as he gives this big address. Of course they're enthusiastic about this. They voted for this.
They're getting a report back of all the successes. And now they're enthusiastically rooting
for the Republicans to get more power so that President Trump gets back up in Washington so we can
secure that agenda. So of course the room's excited. People are absolutely amped. President Trump,
by the way, was in, I mean, he's always pretty good. He was in rare form yesterday. He was like
full of energy. The guy was like off the, just off the top rope on everything. The guy was,
he was hilarious one. He was, he was great at listing through the accomplishments. He was,
of course, he did the weave. He was navigating through all these different things that he was
thinking about that he wanted to share with the audience. And then he had somber moments where he was
kind of reflecting on, on Charlie and his legacy and his passing and what it means for the rest of
us. And all of that created this world-class atmosphere that I think everybody was super excited
to even be close to yesterday.
So it's the opposite of what Politico said yesterday morning in their infamous newsletter.
They said, I have the quote here, the vibes are very bad in Texas.
Dude, I haven't experienced a single bad vibe in Texas.
I love what's happening in Texas right now.
And folks, listen, I'm not throwing smoke here.
You know, I throw compliments like manhole covers.
I've known Vince a while.
Vince is a true.
He is.
If it sucked, like he's going to tell you because, one, he wants,
you know there's a problem and we may need to accommodate by doing extra work and go,
he's not going to lie to you.
If he's telling you, you could etch that sucker in stone.
Last question, Vince, you think there's some kind of Democrat melancholy and regret now
that maybe they didn't do the same thing because they were through their left wing media
kind of goon squad.
They're out there telling people that's going to suck.
It's so stupid.
It's so stupid.
After last night, I agree with you that the Trump speech was excellent, was very energetic.
somber moments mixed with hurrah moments, get out there, agenda celebrating moments.
Here's what we did at the border.
There was substance to it.
There was some humor to it.
You know, a couple of jokes in there.
You think there's some dem regret, though?
Like, hey, man, maybe, you know, maybe we should have tried the same thing.
Oh, absolutely.
Actually, I think the dem regret is that they have no functional leadership whatsoever.
Like, there's a DNC chairman, but nobody actually knows his name.
Everybody's always fighting with him about the agenda of the party and whether they should
admit all of their failures.
And they're also in massive debt.
Like, Dan, if the DNC wanted to have an event like this,
they couldn't do it because they don't have any money.
They don't have it.
They're so poorly managed that the venue would turn them away
for fear that they would just absolutely not be able to cover the charges.
So the reality here is only one political party is even equipped
to do this right now.
And President Trump has decided to just dive straight into yet another novel idea.
The guy's like full of them for the first time ever,
a midterm convention for a major political.
party. And it's got everything, man. And I don't know if the cameras showed it yesterday,
but I'm going to give everybody a little teaser. Yes, there will be a balloon drop. There's a
massive array of balloons prepared to fall tonight at that big event. So we'll, it's, they're,
they're pulling out all the stops, Dan. And the Democrats can't even afford to do that.
Vince, Colin Ace, as I told you, the king of morning podcasting, nobody does it like him.
Rumble.com slash Vince, 8 a.m. Eastern, every single day.
nationwide in the radio 12 to 3. Vince, thanks for your time, buddy. We appreciate it.
I have just one more thing. Bongino army is everywhere. I just need people that
understand this. They're everywhere in this convention space. We're going to stop every five
seconds by people. Yeah. Vince told me like Justin, Jim, obviously Vince, Haley, everyone,
they're getting stopped for selfies and pictures. So Bonino Army, Vince, me, Haley, Jasmine,
Justin, Andy, Josh, Guy. Yeah, we love you, man. We, we love you, man. We,
never forget you guys and every time you know you come up to us and say that it i don't want you to
think any of that is ever taken for granted it's not so thanks guys big deal thanks a lot viz
tell them i love them all we'll see you all later vince colinease folks so folks is good uh i'm sorry
to do an abrupt tone shift but there's no way to transition to this and um try to make it cute
for media i'm not interested in that at all um it is september 10th it is a uh
really somber day. It's not only the day before September 11th, which obviously we all know about,
a 25th anniversary of that horror tomorrow. But this is a day, I think, for every Republican,
I think independent and sane-minded Democrat a day that is tattooed on their brain forever
because we lost a good friend to mine and a good friend to you too.
our friend charlie kirk you know this morning i was sitting in a hotel room and i was chatting with
gie on the phone and gie said you know what do we title today's show and i said charlie
there's nothing else to title it and i think from now on every show we do on september 10th
regardless of what it's about is going to be called charlie and you know i had an idea i mean we
don't have to make some federal holiday you get the government if we don't
the government to handle it for us. But I had an idea I just wanted to throw at you before I
just play this tribute to Charlie. And I want to, I'm going to just get your thoughts on it.
I just think as Republicans, MAGA people, conservatives, libertarians and others who tend to vote
with us and the other side, Charlie died fighting for your God-given right, capital G, God-given,
capital R right to speak freely.
He was murdered and assassinated, listening to people who didn't agree with him to hear them out.
And I thought to myself, today should be, even if we do it ourselves, a National Day of Remembrance for Charlie.
Again, we don't need government, some congressional proclamation.
They want to do whatever.
I don't, that's their business.
But I think Republican Party headquarters around the corner, around your corner in your neighborhood, we have one in Martin County.
I think every September 10th should be a National Day of Remembrance for Charlie.
I'm going to tell you something, folks.
Charlie was human.
He has flaws like I do and anyone else.
But very, almost no one in the Republican movement did more to organize people and get them out and actually win elections and project political power through electoral wins, not just talking Charlie Kirk.
You know, it's, thank you, Martha.
No, thank you.
It's, you know, it's hard to believe that actually happened.
I'll tell the story every year.
I'll make it quick, but I was your deputy director of your FBI.
You own it.
It wasn't mine.
And I was sitting in my office on the seventh floor,
and I was engaged in a meeting about,
it wasn't the most important issue in the world,
but about what to do with FBI firearms and handguns after agents retire,
because we were destroying them, which was just stupid, perfectly usable firearms.
So I was in a meeting with one of the lawyers,
Swimming Gail, Gail Trotter, you may actually know her, and a couple of other administrative people.
And I looked up at the Fox News coverage.
I had a TV in the office, you know, a small one, but enough where I could see it from across the way.
But I had the TV on mute because I was engaged in a meeting and I don't want, you know, the TV volume up.
And all I remember seeing was Sandra Smith from Fox put her head in her hands.
Now, having done a show at Fox, my, you know, myself, I couldn't imagine what happened on live TV where the host stopped talking.
You never stop talking on TV.
It's live TV.
What are you going to do?
Sit there and stare at everyone.
You don't even stop talking on radio.
It'll go to a best of if you do it for seven seconds or more.
So if a host on television stops talking and puts their head.
I thought something happened.
I'm like, God forbid, is she having a heart attack?
So I said to the folks in the meeting, I said, hey, everybody, whatever.
stop talking for a second give me to remote and most of you remember the moment she said i forget her
exact quote but we're hearing word that conservative activist or charlie kirk was shot at an event in uh
in utah i i could i i couldn't i couldn't i couldn't i couldn't believe it i i thought it's
no it's no way i mean for as much as we know
left-wing violence targeted at Charlie and others out there, by the way, me included and others,
it still was hard to believe.
So we were scheduled to be at the 9-11 Memorial in New York, both director Cash Patel and I the next day.
Now, I remember calling Paula and telling her just minutes later because we had, you know,
figured out through the impact.
I mean, a friend of mine who was worked at the FBI and was a Marine walked in and he saw
the horrific video on X and he said he's not alive. That's not survivable. So I called my wife Paula
and I said, I can't believe it. You know, Charlie's, Charlie's dead. And she started crying.
I really trying to get through this man. She started crying because she knew Charlie really well.
because Paula, it doesn't matter for it, but for the purposes of this segment, I don't know,
Paula used to handle all my scheduling.
So Andrew Covett from Turning Point and Charlie would talk to Paula almost as much as they talked to me.
And she said, you know, get out there.
And so we went to the 9-11 Memorial and then Cash and I flew out to UVU.
It was a pretty traumatic moment for me as it was for all of you.
So I just wanted to play quickly on my National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk,
which will be every year for me for the rest of my life on this rock we call Earth.
I want to play just a quick montage or some of, and I'll try to get through this like you do, folks.
And I know in the chat, you're going to be, I'm not crying, you're crying, but it's okay.
If you have a man card or a woman card, we'll turn it in all turn them in advance together.
check this out
13 years ago
I was in a car driving to
Rockford Illinois
and
this journey started
it was June 5th
2012
no money
no connections
and no idea what I was doing
started the Barnstorm Illinois
and in the Midwest
speaking at every possible
tea party rally I could
that was the garage
that we literally started
in Lamont Illinois
I had burning desire
Looking back at it, I wanted to grow this thing more than anything imaginable.
I poured every part of my being into this.
He was 18. No money. No map. Only a call from God.
My political journey was in the midst of the Obama craze in Chicago.
As someone who was generally conservative, I realized this generation, millennials,
is going to be the most progressive generation history
if we don't do something about this.
Only in America can a young man with a dream change the world.
So I go to college campuses and there's a lot of error.
We're all sinners. We are all living error.
We as Christians are called to go into the public arena
to correct error with truth.
I'm far more interested in what God wants of me
than what I want from God.
But sometimes the difficult road is the way that you should configure your life.
For every single one of you, there are a couple thousand students that wish they could speak out like you do.
And courage is a choice.
It takes no skill to be courageous.
You might come up to the microphone and say, Charlie, I don't know my talent.
I don't know my skill.
The cool thing about being courageous is you just have to say, I choose to be courageous.
You are doing something that is bigger than you.
If everything completely goes away, how do you want to be remembered?
I want to be remembered for courage for my faith.
That would be the most important thing.
Most important thing is my faith in my life.
That's not a pregnant pause, folks.
I'm just having a tough time with that like you are.
He was in this business and some of you out there in the chat and part of the show today
may be in this business too.
You may be commentators, you do Twitter lives.
You do what I do.
Maybe you have different audiences.
It doesn't matter.
We do the same thing.
You know what I'm about to tell you.
There are a lot of people in this business who just behind the scenes are different than they are in front.
They're just not good people.
There's a lot of them.
Charlie wasn't one of them.
You texted Charlie about an issue.
Charlie got back to you like that.
And if Charlie didn't get back to you right away,
Charlie would send you a text about why he didn't get back to you right away.
And it would start almost every time, almost every exchange with Charlie, I have.
When he took a bit to get back to me, it would start with, I'm sorry, man.
Here's what I was doing.
God bless his kids and his wife, Erica.
I just want to play for you quickly so we can all, you know,
there was some fake left-wing controversy, by the way.
And I'll throw this crap in the garbage, folks, about, oh, my gosh,
I can't believe they did the RNC and started it on the anniversary of Charlie.
Why would you watch?
You clearly have no understanding of Republican MAGA conservative party members at all.
If there was ever a day to get out and organize and fight for this country and the things we believe in, then damn it, this is the freaking day to do it, you idiots on the love.
Like, how stupid are you guys?
you totally don't understand us at all
Charlie be looking down right now
damn proud that all these people showed up
and are sitting there in 100 degrees
waiting on a security line
to go in to hear the opportunity
about what a greater America looks like tomorrow
you can take that and shove it up your ass
you have no idea what you're talking about
he was a president last night
recognizing Charlie as well take a listen
Extremist assassinated my great friend and conservative voice Charlie Kirk because Charlie Kirk spoke the truth.
What shocked millions of American was not only the fact that Charlie was murdered as bad as it was,
but also how many people made an excuse for it or cheered for it. They were cheering. Some people, sick people.
For a brief moment, the mask came off the radical left and you saw,
what they were really all about.
And now those same people are trying to get power over you in this election.
And they are all voting Democrat.
Okay?
They're all voting every one of them.
And you can't let it happen.
We will not let them win.
And in Charlie's honor, I just want to say we love you, Charlie.
And Erica is here someplace.
Erica, where is Eric?
And I'm going to tell you something else.
He loved his wife, Charlie.
He loved and adored his wife.
And anyone telling you otherwise, you can write off your Christmas card list tomorrow because they are absolutely BSing you.
And God bless Erica for continuing to fight the good fight when she could have said,
I have to take me and my children who are now fatherless and I'm now husbandless due to this unimaginable crime.
and I'm just going to go and buy a cabin in Wyoming somewhere.
No, that's not what you just got right back out there.
And again, those of you in the media suggesting some of left-wing media trying to start a fake controversy on the Republican side about how dare they.
How dare they what?
Recognize Charlie by the president of the United States on the one-year anniversary of his assassination by doing exactly what Charlie dedicated his life to, organizing to go win for America.
values, you morons, you'll never understand us.
Ever.
All right.
I have a lot more coming up for you.
There were some really incredible moments last night.
I've got that.
I've got an updated one.
And I've got a very important update at the end of the show.
Folks, you know, I hate unnecessary teases, but please don't miss the end of the show.
And I'm only putting at the end because I want to get to the R&C highlights, too.
A couple of things happened last night that are interesting.
My sound bites and snapshots theory, which the RNC and the speakers had down to a T last night.
But I've been telling you over and over and thanking you for hanging with us,
despite the endless character assaults on me, Cash Patel, the president, Marco Rubio, J.D.,
the, when I've been just so, so full of gratitude that you haven't fallen for it.
I've said to you, when this is over, this presidency, this four years, and the body of work, both me and cash and others have put in, becomes fully transparent.
As that's all aired, I promise you I'll put that record up against anything.
And now you're starting to see some of the people who had an agenda against us.
As the defamation suits pile up and all the other things, you're seeing massive amounts of corrections now.
You're going to see a lot more of this.
stay tuned quick break and thanks so much for being here we were doing this show today no matter what

Okay, getting back to the show.
Listen, I've got a bit of a soft spot for this guy at the RNC last night.
I'm going to play a couple of videos I thought were the highlights.
And I'm going to kind of spread the wealth a little bit because a lot of people spoke yesterday.
I really love Brandon Gill.
I've known Brandon for a long time.
If you don't know him and you're a new listener to my podcast, he was,
giving a very good speaking spot last night at the R&C.
Because a lot of people think, like, I'm certainly not the only person.
Like, wow, this guy's a superstar and plucked him from obscurity.
Like, no, I didn't.
Everyone's starting to figure out this guy's name.
I think he could be the next governor of Texas.
I'm not telling him what to do.
I think he could get higher than that.
He's just got a gift and he's got what the French call, what the Geneseecois.
The, I don't know.
If you knew, you'd put it a bottle and you'd sell charisma and everybody to have charisma,
but you can't.
because you don't know, but he's got it.
Here was Brandon Gill last night at the RNC,
and at just a great moment.
He decides to walk out and engage in a land acknowledgement.
And if you don't know what a land acknowledgement is,
it's this liberal thing where you say,
you know, this spot I'm standing in right now
was owned by the Lakota and maybe like the Sioux
and then all these other things.
Okay, that's happened with every piece of land on planet Earth,
You know, at some point, there were like dinosaurs who walked on the, but that's, that's not where we are now.
So Brandon Gill did a land acknowledgement last night?
What did he turn left?
No, you didn't turn left.
But he used the Sol Olinsky line.
Try a little bit of humor.
It works.
Check this out.
Only appropriate that we kick this convention off properly with a land acknowledgement.
I'd like to acknowledge that we stand here today.
and the great state of Texas and the United States of America,
the ancestral homeland of great American patriots,
pioneers and explorers, who put down roots,
fought for freedom all over the globe,
and bled and died to build the greatest civilization
ever known to man.
My friends, we live in the finest country in the history of the world,
and we're no longer going to apologize for that.
for that. Folks, I, anybody can play clips, okay, and say, hey, I love this guy. I think he's
incredible. You know, I shouldn't say, you know, never fall in love with politicians, fall in
love with results. I totally get it. However, he brings results. Someone said in the chat,
dude looks like Clark Kent. I never really thought of that, but now that you say it, he probably
could very well pass for Clark Kent and like a comic book. But don't fall in love with politicians,
fall in love with results. And he does what he does what he.
speaks about. We'll obviously keep our, you know, keep our fingers on the pulse. We don't want
people to change later. But that's really, really good. One of the things on this show we do,
rather than just playing clips is we try to tie it to a practical lesson, okay? In other words,
how does that clip benefit you? What do we always call it? Educatement, right? It had to be
educational entertainment. One of the best things you can do as a political activist that Charlie,
by the way, had down as well, is sometimes, and President Trump is the goat.
of this, the greatest of all time, is inject some humor. It lightens up the mood. It takes politics.
You don't what they call economics, the dismal science. Politics is the dismal art. Politics.
You got to make politics somehow interesting. Inject some humor. And not only does it break up
the monotony of talking about issues that sometimes can be boring. They just can. You know,
not every issue is, you know, going to get people's, you know, blood pressure realm up.
The thing about humor that Saul Olinsky, a liberal activist wrote about in his rules,
is there's no natural comeback for it.
There just isn't.
Folks, I don't care what anybody tells you.
I've been in this business a long time.
I have had probably close to a quadrillion people.
I have probably had close to a quintillion people poke fun at you.
I could say, oh, yeah, whatever, man.
I'm not going to tell you it bothers me as much as it used to because it doesn't.
but it's never fun.
I believe me, I've been on the receiving end of it.
Humor is a gift.
Use it.
If you're not funny, at least occasionally in politics,
I got to tell you, you're just not very relatable.
You're going to become like Darth Vader, okay?
I threw that in for Gay.
Key, that was for you.
We had another, and the energy, by the way, last night was great.
I mean, again, I'm only seeing it from the television perspective,
but everybody on the ground,
I got probably 100 texts last night,
from friends of mine in the space, they were like, it's great.
I wish you were here.
I wish I was there, too.
But I'm not.
But I'm here with you because I'm missing this show.
As I've said now, three times for nothing, as they say in New York, N-U-T-H-I-N.
Here's another clip from last night of a guy I've told you about again and again and again.
Let me see in the chat how well the P-1s and the McGrathens out there have been paying attention.
Who is the silent assassin, the show Kasugi ninja of the Trump cabinet?
Trump cabinet.
We're limiting it to the cabinet.
Who is it?
Do you know?
Every time the guy goes out there, he just slays.
It's the first one.
Brandon Gill's achieved legendary status with that speech, Bobafet, 23.
Best said, wait, who just said it?
Who was first?
Somebody just, yes.
You guys are great.
This is why I love this audience.
You guys know what I'm thinking before I'm even thinking it.
Besson is the silent assassin.
The guy goes on TV and just crushes it every single time.
He's independently wealthy.
He doesn't need this job.
You know, him and I'm not nearly as wealthy as him,
but that's the great part about the Trump cabinet
and the sub-cabinet and deputies.
A lot of people took this job.
Hegseth, Judge Janine, others.
Not because they needed the money,
the government salary.
They did it because they wanted.
wanted to be there for you and for the country.
Here's Bessett last night.
And it's a short clip, but this guy is just a killer.
This guy, his new nickname, which I am officially declaring, is show.
Show.
What do you mean?
Show Kasugi.
I'm aging myself.
He was the ninja guy from all the 1980s movies.
Revenge of the Ninja, Ninja 3, the domination, famous V8 scene.
Some of you know.
This is show.
Show Kasugi Ninja.
Scott Besson, check this out.
In 15 short months, we've gone from Autopin to overdrive.
From a president who couldn't stay awake to a president who refuses to sleep.
Across this country, President Trump's policies are reaching the very people they were designed to serve.
He signed the largest tax cuts in history.
Rebalance trade in favor of our working families.
Re-claimed our position as the world's energy superpower.
And where his predecessors created debt and dependency,
this president is creating assets and expanding ownership through Trump accounts.
Okay.
Here he is, Shokasugi Ninja guy.
He's a ninja.
Comes up behind you.
Remember the throwing stars?
Wosh.
But what did he do there?
Okay, again, this is for our P-1s.
He used to, we talked about a tool after Brandon Gill's speech, humor.
Humor's an amazing tool in politics.
You wouldn't think it is, but it is.
There's no natural comeback.
What's the tool, Shokasugi Ninja Scott Besson used here?
Contrasts.
Ladies and gentlemen, contrast, contrast, contrast, when you are running for office,
it's not good enough to say what you're going to do.
You have to also say what the opponent is going to do,
because what the opponent's going to do,
typically a liberal Democrat,
really sucks.
They're going to steal your money,
take away your kids' school choice.
They're going to take away your health care.
You have to paint contrast every single time.
Did you see in that speech,
I play it again,
but you can rewind it later on.
That's exactly what he did.
We went from the auto pent.
You see what he creates a contrast in live time.
Whenever you can do that in a speech,
create a contrast of not just this,
this is what we did for you.
you know, Tom Hanks from Cassidy, look at what I have created.
It's not just that.
You also have to warn people about what the opponent's going to do.
And if you can do it in live time with a contrast that stings,
do it like he just did it.
Besson is just the ultimate messenger because he doesn't, you know,
he don't get all excited like me.
I got the New York fire in me.
He don't need to.
He don't need to.
And forgive the improper English.
It works there.
I want to show you another one.
Now we're going to go to the goat, the greatest of all time, not the bad goat.
Here's the president last night, doing exactly what I just said.
Number one, he takes the humor tool, which he always does.
No one does it better than him.
But second, this is a midterm convention.
So he's not on the ballot.
Now, he says I'm on the ballot, but you know what he means.
He means like vote for our agenda.
It's been the most successful two years of a presidency we've had in my lifetime.
That's it, results-wise.
What we did, what he did, Rubio did, Hegset did, all of it.
I'll stand it against anyone.
I'll die on that hill.
So what he does in this clip here, he's talking about Abdul El-Said,
the lunatic far-left communist Islam fanatic running in Michigan against Mike Rogers.
So watch the way again.
He uses a little bit of humor here and there, but he paints this contrast as a warning.
If you vote for this guy in the midterms, you're not voting for me.
I'm asking you now to vote for other people, i.e. Mike Rogers in Michigan.
Here's what happens if we lose.
And he paints a picture that I don't know how any person could listen to this the day before
the 25th anniversary of 9-11 and cast a vote for Abdul al-Saiad for Senate in Michigan.
I don't know how you do that.
Check this out.
In Michigan, the Democrat nominee is Abdul-El-Said, who brags about.
the fact that he wants to pack the Supreme Court with 23 far left lunatics justices.
His sister, who's absolutely, you got to listen to this one,
his sister celebrated the terrorist slaughter of babies on October 7th.
She thought it was a great thing.
His sister thought it was a great day.
His mother worked for an organization that gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to
people that follow Osama bin Laden.
And he campaigns with a Marxist agitator
who says that America deserved 9-11.
We deserve to have 3,000 people killed.
Two massive structures brought to the ground.
We deserved it, right?
Yet the Democrats want to make this extremist
a U.S. senator.
No.
And running against somebody really good.
He's fortunately, we have a man named Mike Rogers, who's great.
So in November 3rd, get out and vote for Mike Rogers.
So I play this for the obvious reasons.
Trump's use of very strategic tools, painting a contrast,
here's what you'll get with Abdul al-Saiad versus here's what we're going to do.
But I also play it because I'm, folks, I got to tell you, I'm not,
you know I call it like it is.
I always have.
the president and I are never going to agree on everything.
And I had news for you.
The biggest MAGA supporter in the chat,
you're not going to agree with them on anything either.
However, I've never agreed with anyone more in politics.
And that's the best it's going to get for me.
One of the complaints I hear from anonymous Republicans
who leaked to Politico and Axios and, you know,
the Wall Street Journal and elsewhere is,
oh, the president only cares about himself.
What the hell is he out there at this convention?
for two days and campaigning for Mike Rogers.
Do you guys even think before you write these words down?
What are you talking about?
What's your comeback to that?
Well, he's campaigning in the midterms for other people
so they can endorse him again for another run.
He's not running again, morons.
It's just exhausting, listening to all the...
Whatever, man, you don't like the guy?
Don't vote for him.
But just cut the BS, man.
He's out there campaigning to get other Republicans elected who can do nothing for him.
What are they going to do?
Give them money.
You guys a billionaire.
What are they going to do?
Endorse him in an election he's not running in?
Sorry.
I can't with the stupid.
You got to critique.
You don't like the way the Iran war is going great.
Like that's what we do.
We argue stuff out in the Republican Party.
We're not freaking robots.
We're not NPCs like the Democrats.
like the Democrats, go forth and speaketh only Democrat, Socialists.
I don't do that.
You know, like veins bursting out of my head now.
But please stop with the stupid stuff on the Republican side.
It's freaking exhausting.
Shut up, idiots.
Here is my favorite clip from last night.
And folks, I have to be honest with you, I've told you the show is edutainment, educational
entertainment. There's almost nothing educational about this at all. I just think it's freaking hilarious.
I'm watching this last night. And for a moment, I think I looked away. I wanted to plug in my phone
of his losing battery. And my hearing is not that great anymore. And I'm listening to this clip I'm
about to play for you. And it's the president. Again, back to humor. Maybe it's a little bit of
educational as a tool. Talking about
Talafriko from Texas running for Senate, the 75 genders guy,
who claims to be a vegan in Texas.
You know, their team is called the Longhorns, right?
I'm just throwing that out there.
And here's the president talking about beating me.
I have this listed on me as Trump talking about beating me.
Check this on.
He was also somebody that hated eating meat.
But he ran a campaign to beat meat.
He called it beat meat.
I don't know what the hell he meant by the...
These people are going to tell me what the hell is he...
wants to beat meat.
But it was bad for his image, so he started eating meat.
And he recently...
It's getting worse.
I'm getting myself in trouble.
It's getting worse.
Folks, I can't with this guy.
I can't with this guy.
I heard that.
out of my horrendous left year, which I don't know, which is worse anymore.
And I'm like, is he talking about Talaverico beating his meat or something?
I'm sorry, my eyes are getting a little red, but we had a lot of tears this show.
Some over tragedy, some over humor, but guys, I promise you.
And ladies out there, I promise you that was that was not in his teleprompter.
That's just the goat, man.
He just does it. He just goes with it.
And that's going to, folks, that's going to sting.
And the RNC midterm convention is in Texas where Talafrico is running.
He had Ken Paxton up later.
He had a great line about TalaFrico being obsessed with transitions.
Get out and vote Paxton, Mike Rogers, candidates across the country.
Now, I, this is I, MHO here, my humble opinion.
He's in the chat still on that one.
I think this was the most surprising moment of the night.
At all of these conventions, presidential or this one being the first midterm,
but there's always a surprise.
Remember last time they brought out Hoke Hogan, I was there for that.
God rest of soul, there's always a surprise.
I mean, it kind of leaked out, but you get the point.
I did not anticipate this.
Now, I don't know.
Maybe I'm overselling it.
Maybe I'm not.
Some of you know where I'm going with this.
But when I saw this yesterday, I swear.
to you again. I'm not busting your chops or anything like that. Or as we used to say, up in Queens,
you're Ratchez. I don't know what Ratchies are, but I'm not busting them. I thought this was AI.
I thought someone was messing with me. So whenever I want to see something's real, I go to Rapid Response
47. It's the Trump account on X. Because they're not going to put up, you know, intentional
like that. If it's real, you'll see it there. And sure enough, here it was. This was Democrat
Senator from Pennsylvania, John Federman, introducing Senator Dave McCormick at the Republican National
Convention.
What we used to say?
Gay, weird.
I didn't see this coming.
Check this out.
Hey, room of Republicans in Dallas.
Yes, I'm Senator John Federman, Pennsylvania.
Yes, I'm a Democrat.
Why am I here talking to you today?
Because, well, I'm a common sense.
Democrat, I'm always going to stand with America.
I'm always going to reject the extremes and socialism and that anti-American way of life.
Dave McCormick is the kind of senator that gets the job done, and he's going to fight for Pennsylvania.
I'm proud to count him as my friend.
Right back over my shoulder, that's the iconic US Steel Mill.
And that's exactly the kind of thing that will work together and will work with.
President Trump to fight and defend the steel way of life right here in the steel valley.
I have this opportunity to introduce this great American, a great senator, and yes, he's in a different party,
but I'm proud to count him as my great friend. So for everybody in Dallas, I'm here to introduce
Dave McCormick. Now, folks, I don't typically change views that are based on principles,
or values unless the underlying information changes, correct? You have principles or values,
you stick to them. However, sometimes the ground shifts below you and you've got to adjust or you're
going to fall in the San Andreas fall. I don't vote for Democrats ever, and I encourage you to abide
by that binary black or white rule no matter what. I don't, there's no margin for me there. I don't
vote for Democrats. Now, you may say, well, Dan, what if a Democrat, can I give you a hypothetical? Can I give you a
hypothetical and I want to explain myself. If you think I'm wrong, that's fine. The reason I won't
vote for a Democrat, and I'll give you this hypothetical, let's say you've got a Democrat,
Joey bag of donuts versus a Republican Jane bag of donuts, right? Let's say Joey the Democrat
actually has more Republican positions than a fake, phony, folex Republican like Jane.
Dan, that seems crazy. Why would you vote for a Republican who actually has fewer Republican
positions for the Democrat. Because folks, if you vote for a Democrat ever, even if it's the most
conservative Democrat ever, makes like Donald Trump look like a liberal. The problem is you're
empowering the party at the national level. In other words, we don't have chairmanship spots.
Do you give what I'm saying if, let's say that Joey Bag of Donuts, the Democrat does get elected,
okay the chairmanship spots for every single committee in the house and senate go to democrats
who then control the entire agenda on the hill it doesn't matter how conservative that democrat is
therefore my rule is logical you know he's not at star trek phase star wars guy but you know spock
sounds logical captain well i'm not the captain but it is logical i don't vote for democrats however
I will give Democrats, like Federman and others, by the way, who stand up to insanity in their own party,
because that's not good for any of us.
Just like, folks, just like you and I stand up to insanity in Folex MAGA.
We do it every day.
We just did it the other day.
I will give them a platform here.
No questions asked.
I will.
You show me some evidence.
You're fighting back against craziness on either side.
of this political divide, you got a home here. And I'm going to tell you some. I have no problem
putting Federman's clip up there. Now, I'm, whatever, predictions, shmiddictions, who the hell
cares about predictions? I'm just telling you, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Federman
switches parties to the Republican side. And I'll tell you what, I wouldn't be surprised at all
if Federman switches parties if he wins in a landslide. I wouldn't be surprised at all. I would not
vote for him as a Democrat, but if John Federman wants to come on the show and explain why he
thinks the Democrats have gone crazy, I'm more than happy to have him. And some of you may have
checked. That's cool, man. I love you, man. I'm loyal to you. And I want to hear your opinion too.
But I just disagree about that. I would never vote for them, period. But I will damn well give
him a platform on the show if he wants to call out lunacy. And God bless him for doing so.
Respect. We need more of that.
All right, let me take a quick break here at last break of the show.
And then I want to get to some, I told you to stay tuned for this.
This is important.
I've explained to you repeatedly.
And now the six months I've been back on the air.
The, I promised the administration, the president cash the year for reforms at the bureau.
I am damn proud of the work we put in in that first year of the Trump administration.
However, ladies and gentlemen, we came out because I don't subscribe to Folex MAGA and bend the knee in front of them and practice all their stupid talking points.
Trump sucks.
The Jews did everything.
We became public enemy number one.
Again, for the umpteenth time, we're pretty much used to it because I was the first figure to exit.
What did I promise you?
I said, I promise not asking you to trust me, bro.
I'm just promising you that as all the stuff we did starts to come out,
crushing the crime rate, the public corruption stuff,
and I got a record I can stand on.
I said, the other side, however, is going to have to answer for the things they said
because a lot of them got sued for defamation.
Some of you may see where I'm going with this.
Stay tuned.
A quick break here.
Hey, so many brands today claim to stand for American values,
but most of the time it's all crap.
They're just talking.
There's no action.
That is not what Patriot Mobile is about.
They're totally different.
Love this company.
I use them for my cell phone service.
You should do.
For more than 12 years, Patriot Mobile has been living their values and standing in the
gap for every American who believes freedoms worth fighting for.
The business was founded on a simple conviction.
If culture is being shaped through commerce, then Americans deserve a real conservative
alternative.
Today, Patriot Mobile is one of America's only Christian conservative wireless providers,
offering high priority nationwide service on any of the three major U.S. networks with unlimited
data plans, free international calling in over 200 countries, and a 100% U.S.-based customer
support team.
Every year, Patriot Mobile contributes millions of dollars to organizations defending free speech,
religious liberty, the sanctity of life, the Second Amendment, and America's future.
For a limited time, they're offering a back-to-school special of 50% off all wireless
plans for three months.
It's a great deal.
For terms and information, go to patriotmobile.com slash Bongino.
Patriotmobile.com slash Bongino or call 972 Patriot.
promo code Bongino 50 for 50% off all wireless plans for three months. That's 972 Patriot or PatriotMobil.com
slash Bongino. Make the switch today. It's a great service. Me and Paula use it. Okay, before I get to that,
I wanted to cover this story as well. I have to show you the consequences we have as a movement.
If we don't engage in a cleanup operation of bad actors on our side, you see Federman trying to do it on
his side. Again, I don't vote Democrat. However, I applaud.
his efforts. If someone's going to stand in the breach and say, this is freaking crazy, I'm not doing
it. And I'm an American too. Good for you, bro. Or sis, good job. Folks, when we divorce ourselves
from truth and reason and logic and the Spock way of doing things, when we process inputs and facts
and produce a reasonable output, the whole freaking world burns. Nobody believes anything.
We're doing tower of babble crap. And everybody starts engaging in crazy stupid rituals,
every day, trying to make their meaningless lives because they fell for this crap worth it.
I was shocked to see this.
This is a video I'm going to play for you, a hat tip Eric Daughtry.
I saw it on his account.
I've grown up in the criminal justice system with the NYPD, my time in the Secret Service,
and my time at the FBI.
Folks, I've never seen anything like this.
Jurers used to, they didn't have to, but jurors used to basically keep quiet after
this stuff. They go out, they do their duty, and I'm not telling you have to have the right to
speak. But I've never seen where a juror, after this high profile Lindsay Clancy trial,
about her killing her three kids, where a juror goes out and basically starts outing a guy
who I think is a hero. There were 11 jurors in this case, we now know, that wanted a not
guilty, I guess by reason of insanity, verdict for Lindsay Clancy, which I think is crazy.
I get it.
I've heard some of your emails just for reference.
They're now about 90-10 agreeing with me that this is insane.
The lady admitted to killing her three kids.
I don't get what the reasonable doubt is.
I don't understand your position.
Not mad at you.
I'm just telling you, I don't get it.
And all your explanations don't make sense either.
Again, we got combat veterans coming home with mental scars.
You and I all never know.
They're not killing their kids.
We're going to excuse down murder now?
No, I'm not buying it.
I'm sorry, nothing you've said to me.
I'm just not doing a jerk has convinced me at all.
Here's one of the jurors.
Well, just listen for yourself.
And I'll tell you what I think on the other side.
Check yourself.
He was very arrogant.
He really did not.
take anything that anybody said.
The nurses, he tried to ask a question about the medications,
and we went back to the report from South Shore Hospital.
We had the toxicology report.
We could see exactly the amounts.
The nurses in the room spoke to that and tossed to that.
There were nurses on the jury.
Yes.
And they spoke to that, that specific thing.
That was a question that he had.
and he just completely disregarded the information that they gave.
I mean, he had reasonable doubt.
He admitted he had reasonable doubt.
After we watched that video of the interview, I think that's when it was.
He admitted he had reasonable doubt.
And I started filling out the forms.
I was so excited.
I actually, there were three forms I had to fill out.
And I started filling them out.
I wrote my signature on each one.
And then he said, but I'm still not.
going to say that she's not guilty by reason of insanity. I'm not sure if Rogue is the right
word, Sue, but every one of us in the hours of a frustration would get up and walk the room
because you just couldn't sit. Now, I'm reading the chat in live time and I don't, it's not even
90-10. It's like 99 to 1 people agreeing with me that this is insane. And by the way,
for these folks in the jury, you know, talking about this hero, this man, and I don't, I wouldn't
dare in a thousand lifetimes, even if I knew his name, I wouldn't put it out there.
I don't want to know. It's not my business what his name is. If this guy gets doxed,
this hero, folks, there are really crazy people out there. It is the one year anniversary of the
assassination of Charlie Kirk. What more evidence do we need that violence, most of
This is what happens when you get Tower of Babel, no true north.
No one engages in logical reason anymore.
And anybody believes any conspiracy theory they hear online.
This guy's a hero.
And if you're listening, I will never, ever, I don't care how many people would have put out your name or anything about you.
I don't care if you're white, blue, green, Muslim, Jew, Christian, Hindu.
I don't care if you've obviously not, but lived there.
in Alaska. It doesn't matter to me. You, sir, are a hero. And thank you. And I think I speak for
the chat, American flags in the chat, if you agree. I think I speak for my most entire chat
in expressing the deepest of gratitude for standing for your convictions while all this
crazy is going on around us. And see it already. It's already pretty unanimous. I don't like to speak
for the chat, they've got their own mind.
We're not NPCs here.
But, sir, someone
passed him this message.
There you go.
Look, you don't think you have any support out there?
Keep it up, folks.
Let's show them.
This is the largest chat room in conservative media.
It's not even close.
Keep going.
This is all for you.
Those are thousands of people.
There's 41,000 people watching this right now.
Keep it going, man.
This is for you, sir.
Thank you.
You are a hero and a patriot.
And you are a true believer in this beautiful republic we have and the rule of law.
That's pretty impressive at the end of the show, guys.
Thank you, sir.
All right, this is important.
Please, I hope you catch this if you missed it,
because sometimes I know people at 11 go watch the great,
Steve Crowder, a good friend of mine.
And it's okay if you want to watch back later.
We don't care.
I have friends in this business.
It's not about me.
It's about the movement.
However, this part's important.
So I hope you catch it later on video on demand.
The podcast was originally an hour.
So you may ask, well, why did you move it to an hour, 10, hour 20, sometimes an hour 40?
The answer, folks, is I just got a lot to say and talk about it.
I always felt like an out we had to keep it to an hour before because the radio show started at noon.
But now we don't have that radio show at noon.
We have the new radio show from three to six in the afternoon.
And I said on Twitter yesterday, some of you may have missed the announcement, launching Monday, September 21st.
We've got another radio, another radio show, but the Dumer said everything sucks.
Folks, the Dumers tell you a lot of stuff.
That's what I'm trying to tell you.
We're launching 5 a.m. to 6 a.m. for early morning drive across the entire country.
The footprint is, I don't know, close to 300 stations.
It's enormous.
Bongino Report AM will get you a station finder as soon as possible.
Stations are coming in so fast.
It's hard to keep up, so we're just going to wait a minute.
So thank you for your support.
Don't believe the Dumer Twitter bot nonsense.
It's all crap and garbage.
These guys can't even win an election.
So you can throw that stuff right in the garbage, okay?
Now, this is important.
I am obviously friends and a former colleague of FBI director, Cash Patel.
I've known him a very long time.
I also know Director Patel's girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins, who is a wonderful young woman.
She is not a public servant.
However, she is a public figure and, you know, scrutiny.
And that's fine.
And she, I, you know, I haven't spoken to her about this at all.
However, it does come along with that.
However, I told you after I left the Trump administration that, listen to me,
because I was the first one out with a profile, whatever you want to call it,
I don't sound like a jerk, but you get the point that the forces of evil out there who are
trying to take this administration out in the Folex fake.
Republican Party because they want to set up their own anti-Maga candidate in the next presidential
election. I'm sorry, in the next presidential election. I told you they were going to direct their
fire at each individual as they came out. I became public enemy number one simply because I was
the first one out of the door. It doesn't matter what you tell these people. It doesn't matter.
You know, the story come out in the New York Times about my COVID thing and the investigation.
They'll say, oh, nothing's happening. It doesn't matter. Thank you for sticking with me.
Podtrack just came out. We're still a top 20 show, which is amazing.
It took a whole week off and we're still a top 20 show in August.
Thank you very much for that.
Thank you to the great Barrett media, by the way, for writing up the article.
I really appreciate it.
You know, me and Ben Shapiro, we're strong.
Now, Podtrack, again, is not every podcast out there.
I just want to be clear.
I don't like, you know, hyperbole.
But it's a good chunk of them.
So I appreciate you guys hanging with us.
I also told you that these people attacking us, many of them, not all of them,
Not all of them, but many of them are doing it because they know I don't fall for bigotry
and anti-Semitic crap and I'm never, ever, ever going to.
I'd rather be dead.
You have zero chance of convincing me that I should judge a group of people by their skin
color, religion, or anything.
Zero.
I'd rather cancel the show tomorrow.
You go out and say the code words, however, about the Jews.
And all of a sudden, some of these same people love you.
Well, and I don't want to highlight just this guy in his ex post because I, if he did the right thing by correcting himself, so I don't want to make it.
But I just want to show you that you're going to see more of this and you can mark my damn words on this.
A lot of these people who came after us, you're going to see making some massive corrections.
So Elijah Schaefer, and again, I'm not trying to single him out.
I actually appreciate that he took him a while, but he did the right thing.
I want to read this to you because he accused Cash Patel's girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins,
of basically being some foreign power.
So he said, quote, in September of 25, I published a post on the platform concerning
Alexis Wilkins that implied she was operating as a foreign intelligence asset,
a honeypot against the U.S. and persons connected to the federal government.
I'm not going to read the whole thing, but he goes on to say,
I apologize for that implication, good for him, because it is,
false to suggest she's a honeypot. Alexis Wilkins is not and has never been a foreign intelligence
operative, foreign asset or honeypot of any kind. There is no factual basis to suggest otherwise.
Alexis sued me as a private citizen on her own initiative to defend the reputation she spent
her career building to recover income she lost as a direct result of my post and to respond to
credible threats made against her safety after my post circulated. Now he goes on to explain more.
You can read it on the screen if you like.
Again, I applaud him and doing it.
I'm not into pylons.
I really don't want to do shouting and fraud here.
Candidly, folks, it's not my goal because we need to go win elections and we don't need
intra-party folex mega fights going on endlessly.
I promise you, the only reason I bring this stuff up, this intra-party stuff, is if you're
going to come after me and try to destroy my reputation, my family and everything else falsely,
just like they came after Alexis, then damn well, I'm going to highlight the correction.
You know why?
because people throw something out there.
Von Gino, Epstein, Bonino, COVID, Bonino, Begazzi.
And then when the facts come out,
you notice the correction, if I didn't have this show, folks,
all you got to do is make an allegation.
It makes it the entire way around the world.
The correction barely makes it 10 feet.
The only reason I'm putting this up
is because now some of the people that stood by that,
and there are others, oh, you mark my words,
calling Alexis a foreign asset honeypot.
Good luck.
You're going to need it.
I promise you, as my name is Dan Bongino.
You're going to see more of these from podcast to Stan and others.
And you're going to be like, I'm glad I stuck with Dan.
And I'm glad you stuck with me too.
