Starting point is 00:00:02 All America all the time. Sit down, buckle up, and get ready for the Dan Bongino show. So the little junior mini-Kameenai? Mini-Kameen-D. You see he came out this right before we came up on here. Did you guys catch it? Andrew, you catch it? Little mini-commade.
Starting point is 00:00:21 Little mini-coma. He came out and he's like the seventh layer of Kamenees. Now after we took out the prior six layer of Kameneis were like seven degrees removed from Ayatollah Kameh Kameh Kamei. Kameneh Khammedan. Khammeda said, we're going to attack U.S. base. Total Baghdad bopsat. We're going to attack U.S. bases everywhere.
Starting point is 00:00:39 We're going to close the streets. Of course, that's an effort to engage in economic warfare because what the Iranians know, the Iranians at Kameh, Kamei number 72, whatever Kamehese, they understand this thing right now. They understand that there is some powerful constituency in the United States on their side that they need to pull over. Who is it?
Starting point is 00:01:02 Folks in the chat. Who is it? Come on. It's early, but yes, the American media, of course, is on the side of the Khomeini, Kamene number seven or whatever he is. So they know if gas prices go up,
Starting point is 00:01:16 that the media will report endlessly. Economic chaos. The death to America regime is killed, but it really is going to be the death of America. Gas prices won up 10 cents or whatever. Kameney understands he's got like a constituency and see in the United States, the liberal media. That's why he's putting out these little messages.
Starting point is 00:01:36 You understand that, right? Guy's cutting it now, so we'll get to that a second. But I want to start off the show today with something different. Folks, I get it. Like, the liberal media cheers on, you know, Putin and Khomeini and any enemy of the United States. I get those are your homies. I understand.
Starting point is 00:01:59 You got like an official handshake. Like, you know, you got gang sign with them. and stuff, I get it. Like, I know they're your boys and all. But, like, when it comes to our troops, Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, our folks in the Coast Guard, people who serve whose lives and butts are on the line
Starting point is 00:02:18 every single day, like in actual war theaters around the world, can you just take a moment and shut them? Before you run with a stupid story like the steak and lobster thing? folks in the chat, I'm assuming you heard the story yesterday. The media, liberal media, who is on the side of, they're in like Team Mullah, Team Kameenna number seven, they are on his team.
Starting point is 00:02:49 They're like, that's my boy, Blue. They love to, it's like old school. They love that. They're in the same little fraternity. They're trying to hire Snoop Dog to come out and do a concert. Some of you will get that. now they're attacking our troops because the Department of War under Secretary Hegsev get a load of this guys this is just straight up malfease this is just evil sinful in the
Starting point is 00:03:18 worst one the Department of War you believe this shit they bought the troops steak once once oh like what what the what the man they're demanding an impeach so is justin they want an impeachment right now for Secretary Hanks. I can't believe it. Of all the, right guys? Of all the things we've heard, our brave men and women overseas eating shitty cardboard MREs all day,
Starting point is 00:03:44 eat a steak and a lobster 10 once in a... I don't know, guys, that's unforgivable. That, for me, is a bridge too far. That's it. Thank you, Professor, Jim. If there was ever a moment, for those of you missed the radio show, I needed the radio feel back.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Producer Jim has agreed to join us from Dallas. For those who listen to the radio show, you know exactly what that is. Jim, I don't know, but this is impeachable, is it not? He should be dragged in front of the Senate right now. 100%. Jim agrees. Pete, you're done, man. You are finished.
Starting point is 00:04:20 All right, I'm going to get to that in a second and show you how CNN, unbelievably, after like their, what, 40th retraction this week or something, actually did it again. They did it again. Oh, man, what an opening to this show. I can tell. I'm in a mood today again. folks, hypercaffeinated Dan, ready to go.

This last year, your eyes may have been open to a lot of things, but there was one thing that many found particularly disturbing. It was a lot of this infighting. going on. I think we all agree on freedom of speech, the right to life, the Second Amendment,
Starting point is 00:05:39 supporting our military and first responders. Well, this one company has been fighting for our rights well over a decade now. Patriot Mobile, they've been with me from the beginning. This is an amazing company run by huge Patriots, and they're proud of it.

The service is amazing.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Patriotmobile.com slash Dan. That's patriotmobile.com. slash Dan. Okay. So, sarcasm aside for a moment, a big expose yesterday, I say that laughingly, that the Department of War that, by the way, has billions in money for weapons, hundreds of billions of dollars, for weapons to keep our country safe to support our fighting men and women, that they spent, you know, millions on steak and lobster. Now, obviously, if it was costing millions of dollars, it's fairly obvious that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth was not eating the steak and lobster himself. Now, dumb shits in the media who don't understand how K-cals work,
Starting point is 00:07:17 calories and intake and intake and came out, of course, and they were like, hey, man, that's Pete. What an arrogant little SOB he is. Justin, can you believe he ate $15 million in steak and lobster? Now, we know Pete very well. It's like, hey, look at it. at who I know. Who gives a shit who I know. I'm just telling you, I know why do I tell you why I know Pete? Not because I want to look like a big shot, because I've seen Pete eat quite a bit. Matter of fact, when I was in D.C., one of the first meetings I had after hours, I didn't do a lot of was with Pete and Judge Janine and others. We had a dinner. We had a dinner and I saw Pete eat. And I assure you, Pete did not eat $15 million in steak. Actually, I only saw him kind of nibble at his plate a
Starting point is 00:08:00 little bit. He was sharing the food with his wife, Jen. So Pete is not like some big 400-pound monster who could consume 15 million in steak. It was fairly obvious if you're not a liberal media douche canoe that this was actually bought for our war fighters out there who occasionally, when they're not eating shitty cardboard MREs, all for us, but they don't have to do this. They don't have this volunteer workforce, right? Hey, I'm going to go dive for my fellow American overseas and eat shitty food all day. it's not something a lot of people volunteer for. So I tend to put these people on a pedestal and tend to think very little of people who attacked them.
Starting point is 00:08:37 That's just me, okay? So they decided that they were going to re-up a food contract, nothing unusual, and purchase some steak and lobster for our heroes. Here is Paul Bagala, one of the dumbest mother on television. This guy spent decades on the air staying saying really stupid shit. Here he is on CNN. implying somehow that the steak and the lobster is for Pete, who again, I'm not sure could consume that much steak and lobster.
Starting point is 00:09:07 He's a very thin guy. I'm not kidding, folks. This happened. Check this out. He spent $15 million in one month for ribby steak, $6.9 million for lobster tail, $225 million for furniture. He spent more in the month of September than most countries on earth spend in their defense. Do you believe it?
Starting point is 00:09:24 All for himself, lobster tails? Do you believe? Are troops eating MREs? No, no, no, no. Lobster tails? Do you believe the Secretary of Defense is personally eating all the lobster? Wait, he can't eat six? Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:09:35 The troops are getting lobster. Frequently. Brother's defect has steak and lobster. I was just taking lobster. All right, damn here decent. I'll do it. I'm ready for war. People are going to war.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Oh, my God. Troops who are going to war. Oh, my God. You know that. You know that. You know that. You are so full. You are going to be.
Starting point is 00:09:56 over this. You're going to get killed over this. Internet, do something. I might have to double it. I had to run it back. I had to run it back. Well, the internet did something. Thank you to the great Scott Jennings on CNN for constantly humiliating their stupid hosts and guests. How does this guy remain employed? And I mean that, by the way, as the greatest of compliments. Scott Jennings has single-handedly saved CNN from itself so many times. Paul Bagala is a freaking moron. Justin just pops out of studio. He goes, 15 million in steak and lobster.
Starting point is 00:10:32 One, that's not even a lot of money compared to the Pentagon employee workforce and how many war fighters we have. That's not even like, that's like a drop in the bucket, okay? 15 million for steak and lobster for our troops. Justin's like, Bagala doesn't know he didn't eat it. Like, you go into those restaurants, burger joints. And you know, they always have like, they're like, the king of all burgers, eat this burger, and we won't charge you.
Starting point is 00:10:55 It's free. You ever seen that? And the burger's like, I don't know, it's like a three, four, five pound burgers, like 10 pound burger. And the guy spends like five hours a year. That burger, that whole burger probably costs, even with the Joe Biden inflation, probably costs 100, maybe 150 bucks. If you're lucky, you would have to eat one of those burgers.
Starting point is 00:11:13 Like every minute, we need to get Marigay in here to do math to wind up equaling anywhere close to $15, $20 million of Pete Eggset consuming steak by himself. Get in my belly! That's how big you'd have to be. They eat that shit. And even he couldn't do it. The fat dude from Austin Power, they couldn't do it. There is no freaking way.
Starting point is 00:11:37 This is fairly obvious. There is no cable network or podcasts full of sane people on planet Earth where that comment would be allowed to stand. So, internet do your thing. I'm going to play this again. I saw this on Dom Luker's Twitter feed. It was pulled off of TikTok. Here is one of our soldiers. thank you to the guy eating the steak and lobster in this,
Starting point is 00:11:59 the table full of guys who are going to go off into war theaters and put their asses on the line for us. I can't say enough to our veterans, our active duty folks, the families of veterans who are serving you too from the Dan Bongino show. Everybody here, thank you. From the bottom of my sometimes broken heart, you are the greatest part of this country.
Starting point is 00:12:22 We love you on this show. I don't give a flying fuck if you eat steak, and eggs for breakfast, steak on steak for lunch to prepare yourself for steak at night, rib-eye steak at night. I don't even want you eating sirloin. It's too cheap. I want you eating ribeye, porter house. Fuck, I want you eating a tomahawk once in a while.
Starting point is 00:12:43 I want a big-ass tomahawk with a chef. I want, put those flags in the chat. Flags in the chat. Every, in honor of our great, I'm not in the middle. Handor, I love you guys. And ladies out there eat steak. day. Look at our chat supporting you guys. Do you ever see that many American flags in a chat before?
Starting point is 00:13:02 The Bongino show loves you guys. You have a special place in all of our hearts here. Morning steak, evening steak, afternoon steak. Fuck, I want a nighttime steak, too. Sorry about the line. I'm just like in a mood today. You should have a steak before bed too. Play that guy again.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Here's the guy on TikTok, by the way. I love this guy. He's like, I'm going to double up and go back for more. I want you to triple up. After you double up and go get your other lobster tail and steak, I want you to go back. I want you to do whatever you need to do. Take a food nap, have a food baby,
Starting point is 00:13:38 and then go back and get another steak and lobster tail. Keep it up in the chat while this plays again. I love this guy. Check this guy out. Brother's defect has steak and lobster. I was this steak and lobster. All right. Damn here, decent.
Starting point is 00:13:54 I'll do it. I'm ready for war. We're going to war. I might have to double it. I had to run it back. I had to run it back. Sir, whoever you are, look at that, Chad. Still going.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Still going. Run it back again. Run it back a third time. Let me tell you a little something, okay? I was not in the military. I can't say it enough because there's the greatest regret of my life. Because I love and adore people who serve for me. I live in this great, prosperous, free country because I'm not,
Starting point is 00:14:28 on the front lines of combat, there are other people out there protecting these places. You think people wouldn't invade the United States of America tomorrow and steal all our shit if they could. Why don't they do it? The answer is because Marines, Air Force, soldiers, and our men and women in the Navy and in our Coast Guard would kill them. That is why this type,
Starting point is 00:14:48 that is why you can sit safe and secure in your bed every night. Yes, it's the cops too locally. But nobody invades us because they wouldn't even dare because of brave men and women who's like, I will kill you if you come in our house called the United States. And you know what they eat? For those out there in the liberal ecosystem, who are in my chat,
Starting point is 00:15:09 you're the only ones not posting American flags in a chat right now, as we probably break it for Rumble and show them like bugs they can't find on any other show because this is the biggest one, the liberal D-bags in the chat. Do you guys know what MREs are? MREs are these like meal packs that the military folks have been taking them out.
Starting point is 00:15:30 not in the field forever. The MRE technology has gotten better. I was not in the military. However, I have had, even though MREs have gotten better, I have had the unfortunate pleasure of having to live off MREs for maybe a day or a day and a half. That was it. I got stuck one time in my prior prior job on a foreign advance
Starting point is 00:15:54 when I was on the president's detail in Accra, Ghana. The car plane broke down. I think it was an old C-5. We used to fly backwards upstairs, right? We get stuck there, and we're there, and we ran out of food. We had some water and some MREs. I'd eat MREs occasionally, but I never had to eat them over a course of like a day and a half. So what we did was sitting this hangar in the presidential limos because the cars were on the plate.
Starting point is 00:16:19 And all we could do was eat MREs. Let me tell you, so when you're hungry, you'll eat MREs. They're not horrible, but let me tell you something. They're not great either. You start trading people's stuff. I'll take that for this and all this other stuff. I wasn't even in the military. This was one day of my life.
Starting point is 00:16:34 Here's, here's the damn Bongino's sacrifice. Here it is. Can't see it because it wasn't there. I didn't have sacrificed anything. One freaking day. I fasted for a day, okay? No big deal. Here's their sacrifice.
Starting point is 00:16:44 These guys are eating this shit every day. Every day. You know what a hot meal means to a guy in some hot zone theater? We could be killed walking out of his hooch at night. Do you have any idea what it means to him to eat steak and a lobster? this is like the heavens have opened up and beautiful vistas appear mistaken lobster they've been eating graham crackers and shitty eggs out of a MRI who's probably made 15 years ago have you ever seen a story blow up more in the face of dipshits like paul de bagala some of you get that
Starting point is 00:17:24 to all the warfighters out there again secretary of war i suggest you do this. Pete don't need any leadership training from me. I would suggest a big, huge, massive double barrel middle finger. And in the next budget, you make steak and lobster tails mandatory like two or three times a month for everyone. At least, at least, fly it out to the freaking war zone and have them eating it in hooches on a barbecue. So tired of his mother. Trying to control my. I know. I'm sorry, folks. I just like, I told you, man, like my family was never the same. My mother lost her older brother in Vietnam.
Starting point is 00:18:08 My uncle, I never met him because he died before I was born. I was born in 74. My grandmother was never the same. My grandmother was never, ever the same. His name was Greg Ambrose. When you go to that Vietnam War Memorial, you see his name there. I think it's 42 years, but I've seen it probably 15, 20 times.
Starting point is 00:18:32 My grandmother was never the same. She died, Eileen Sadler. She died unbelievably depressed over this. I don't even like talking about it because that was always a thing. Don't mention Greg around grandma. Don't mention Greg. He was barely 20 years old. He did something that, unfortunately, hundreds of thousands of people in this chat
Starting point is 00:18:57 who served, know someone who served, or no someone who served and died for us, have experienced to. and we're going to complain about our troops and soldiers eating a steak and a lobster tail once in a while, you all can go fuck yourself in the media, right? If you think this story is going to resonate with the American people and you've got some political football, man, I'm telling you this is the most grotesque political miscalculation
Starting point is 00:19:30 in modern times. While we're at war right now with this military action over there in Iraq, You think this is going to like ring people's bells? Assholes. I'm so tired of these people, man. And you should be too. Thank you, everyone in the chat for chipping in there
Starting point is 00:19:52 and showing our soldiers and fighting men and women out there how much they mean to us. Thank you. All right, I want to get to this story because this just broke before we came on the air. This is going on right now. We have military action going on Iran or complaining about steak and lobster for our troops,
Starting point is 00:20:09 like assholes. However, this just broke before we came on the air. It's a really important story because Khomey, I don't know what he is, the Kermane A-14, we're down to like the lower levels. Like, it's just kid. This guy is, it'd probably be dead by the end of the week. I hope he is. I don't wish ill on anyone.
Starting point is 00:20:26 However, if people wish us to die, I hope they die first. It's just a matter of simple Dan Bongino, don't get dead ideology. I don't want to get dead. You shouldn't want to get dead either. So if people's motto, like, death to America Mullas, is you should get dead first. My comeback is, no, no, you're going to get dead first. Thanks to brave men and women willing to do it and make you get dead before we get dead. So Khomeini put out a statement this morning.
Starting point is 00:20:52 This just happened a few minutes ago before he came on the air. A bunch of threats about how he's going to attack American bases. He's going to shut down the straight. These are the lunatics we're dealing with whose biggest fans are the left-wing media. Check this out. Just getting this in right now on Iranian state media, a presenter read, a new statement from Iran's new supreme leader, Mostabakh, Haminae, and Reuters is reporting a few highlights from those remarks, saying that the Supreme Leader said in the statement, we believe
Starting point is 00:21:20 in friendship with neighbors and only target the bases, and we will inevitably continue. That is not true. We know that many Gulf countries have had their residential and civilian infrastructure attacked. Now, Iran's new Supreme Leader in this statement goes on to say all U.S. bases should immediately be closed in the region and those bases will be attacked. He also, It says in the statement, again, that was presented on state media. He does not appear in the statement that he calls on unity among the people of Iran and participation in Kuds Day. Now, Kuds is the Arabic word for Jerusalem. And this day normally falls on the last Friday of Ramadan.
Starting point is 00:21:57 And so, if my math is correct here, that would be March 20th of this year, the last Friday of Ramadan, when traditionally we have seen Iranian proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah launch attacks and also large demonstrations. in the region. And then also talks about the strait of Hormuz. Closure of the straight of Hormuz should be continued as a tool to, quote, pressure the enemy. Reading the chat. Totally magnificent. Let them eat steak. You're damn right. David Suck. He doesn't have a Navy to shut down anything. You're damn right. He doesn't. But they do have some small ships left in some capacity. However, mine sweepers, our technology, our ISR, surveillance reconnaissance, intel gathering abilities.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Folks, we're in a unique spot right now where we can mow that lawn. We don't need any kind of democracy nation building efforts. It's probably not going to work. However, we are winning. Anyone in the liberal media on the side of the Mueller class and this asshole committee, we're going to shut down the street, they should be completely disregarded their opinions. You're allowed to have them.
Starting point is 00:23:03 Freedom of the press is a great thing. You also have the freedom to act like a moron. and unfortunately, again, you have to take us up on the opportunity all the time. Folks, the straight is very, very thin at its choke point. It is a complicated piece of global infrastructure, no doubt about it. However, the straight has been a persistent problem for decades right now. Donald Trump is the one guy with the nut sack to fix it. Even the Wall Street Journal, you know, Barton Swain, I read the Wall Street Journal.
Starting point is 00:23:37 I know they're not the biggest, like, Mag of Hoax. I get it. That's okay. That's okay. I'm not closed-minded to other people's ideas. I like ingesting ideas from all portions of our movement and the other side, too. I want to see what they're thinking because it's usually stupid and I need a good comeback for it. So I listen to their stupidity. However, even the Wall Street Journal yesterday wrote an op-ed saying, hey, man, you don't really, you cannot like Donald Trump. Like it's a republic. You're allowed, obviously, to have opinions. However, when the Wall Street Journal, themselves is acknowledging this is an important piece.
Starting point is 00:24:12 Here's just a small snippet from it that, hey, all you people attacking Trump's motives for doing this, it's totally baseless. This is Barton Swame at the Wall Street Journal. I'm telling you, they're not even fans of President Trump, like at all. He says, I'm wondering, just listen to this. This is really important. The question is why? Like, why did Trump engage in this military action?
Starting point is 00:24:31 They note, if Mr. Trump is either the unsirious buffoon, his detractors on the left, assume he is, or the anti-war peacenik, some of his, MAGA supporters thought he was, then why did he do it? He goes on. What's driving both camps batty is that the only plausible motivation for Donald Trump's order to strike Iran is a judicious and honorable one, that the regime in Tehran constantly menaces America and its allies and that its rulers can be counted on to continue their pursuit of a nuclear weapon.
Starting point is 00:25:03 He notes in conclusion, listen to this. There is no bizarre ulterior motive necessary. Folks, there was no reason for Trump to do this other than not getting you dead. He does not benefit from this politically. He's had to handle some of the economic fallout, the liberal media cheering on, the Mullah class. He's doing it because he believes in not getting you dead too. That's it. We've played a thousand clips of this guy hyperbolicly.
Starting point is 00:25:33 Speaking of Donald Trump from 1980 on, telling you about the threat of the Iranians. This has been on his mind for decades. We played the clips. It's not me, you know, engaging in conjecture. He's, we played the clips of him saying it. All right. I'm going to take a quick break and I want to get back to this because a story went out yesterday and I got a, I don't know, 20, 30 emails from media people wanted me to talk about it
Starting point is 00:26:03 because they know I'm obsessed with this story. However, I want to like to take a bit of an edge off it because the story went on, and everybody kind of freaked out. It was like almost wall to wall for an hour on cable news. Quick break and I'll tell you what I'm talking about. Some of you know where I'm going with this. Think about this. In 2006, $20,000 equaled roughly 33 ounces of gold, the spot price.
Starting point is 00:26:23 At today's prices, those 33 ounces would be worth over $150,000. Damn. Smart Americans diversify a portion of their savings into precious metals I did. That's why I buy my gold from Birch, Gold Group, B-I-R-C-H, and have for a long time I'm happy I did. It's a crucial part of a balanced financial strategy for me. It gives me peace of mind, given all the events that could impact the U.S. economy and have. See if holding gold in a tax shelter retirement account is right for you too.
Starting point is 00:26:55 Birch gold can help you convert an existing IRA of 401k into an IRA in gold. Just text my last name, Bongino, B-O-N-G-I-N-O, to the number 9-8-9-8-9-8 to receive your free info kit on gold. There's no obligation, just useful information. They have an A-plus rating with the better, Business Bureau and tens of thousands of happy customers, maybe in one of them. Let Birch Gold help you diversify with gold and get your peace of mind. Text Bongino, B-O-N-G-I-N-G-I-N-O to 9-8-9-8-9-8. Again, text my last name, Bongino to the number 9-8-9-8-8-t Today. Message and data rates apply. Thanks, Birch Gold. So this story popped and then my phone blew up after that about the drones,
Starting point is 00:27:39 ABC news, how there was a FBI warning about Iran aspiring to attack California with drones and retaliation for war. Listen, obviously drones are a serious problem. I've only said it a thousand times. I'm not going to spend a whole bunch of time on this and reiterate the obvious. You all know why drones are a problem. Humans can't fly. They're hard to intercept.
Starting point is 00:27:59 The technology life cycle is down to close to like two weeks in Ukraine before there's some counter technology to defeat the technology to counter the counter technology. It's a big problem. They are an essential part of our new commercial base. They're going to be used for deliveries from Amazon to Walmart to everyone else. So they're not going away. You can't ban them. So we're going to have to find a way to isolate friend from foe and get a cheap technology
Starting point is 00:28:25 to take these things down if they are, in fact, faux. The reason I bring that up is when you read deeper into that story, it is older intelligence that it was put out as a law enforcement bulletin. I'm not telling you it's not a problem. I'm just telling you it's not like there was a specific. incident that somebody was like, oh, they're going to attack San Diego tomorrow. Like, that's not what happened. So that's why I didn't go out and comment on it in the media yesterday because I think they, you know, they want to contribute to the hysteria out there.
Starting point is 00:28:50 And I'm not going to be part of that. Of course there are threats out there. But there's an agenda by these liberal media types. Gas prices through the roof. Then they come down. They ignore the story. We're all going to die. Sleeper cells everywhere. Really? And I didn't see that. The evidence of that? I'm not telling you we don't have unknown unknowns. We do. But, I mean, if anyone would know, it would be me, right? Now, I want to get to this, too, because I addressed this a little bit yesterday. But, folks, the liberal media, in addition to the Iranian mullah class, finding an ally in the liberal media,
Starting point is 00:29:28 don't give the troops steak and lobster. You know, we're losing the war. We're getting killed over there, left and right. The base is all, oh, my gosh, this is terrible. They've never found a better ally than the liberal media. I've never seen anything like it. I really haven't. And believe me, no one's one.
Starting point is 00:29:42 skeptical of liberal media bullshit than what has two thumbs? This guy, this cat right here. But the liberal media has found an ally too with people out there pretending they're part of our movement. Folks, I can't read the whole thing, but this is a tweet you really need to see. James Lindsay put this out yesterday, and I've warned you about this. He's at Conceptual James on X. I'm not going to read the whole thing. However, keep this up if you could get me in the little box for a minute. I'll try not to, you know, people like visuals to jump around a little bit. this is important. What James is addressing here is current thingism.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Folks, the left is the party of the current thing. You know the current thing? Men's penises in the women's room, you know, abortion after birth, otherwise known as murder. Like, they just fall for the current thing all the time. Remember current thingism like NPCs? Unfortunately, the current thing now is starting to filter over into the right. He notes this. He says, hey, I'm addressing this zoomer slop.
Starting point is 00:30:44 In other words, this current thing is amongst this younger breed of Republican kids out there. He says, this is a real Gen Z quote. Of all my friends, Israel is the very first thing they want to learn about and understand. Because it does go back to America first. I, in fact, have not talked to one Gen Z conservative that has been pro-Israel. Everyone I talked to is questioning Israel. Okay. Well, Lindsay brings up a good point.
Starting point is 00:31:11 James says, well, listen, kids, doesn't that seem really effing weird to you? the main thing your whole cohort cares about is another country, one that's allied with us and is kicking ass in the most top gun way you can imagine. Doesn't it seem weird that everyone in your generation is focused on another country that isn't even attacking us? They don't chant death to America.
Starting point is 00:31:30 He notes it should be weird because it is weird. The reason it's happening is not because Israel is relevant to all of your lives. It's happening because you're being propagandized. I've seen this over and over. He goes on later in tweet. He says, You think this was normal?
Starting point is 00:31:45 No, it's not normal either. Talking about how he mentions how these social justice kids back decades ago fell into this white privilege current thing trap. That's not normally. How does that affect your daily lives? He says this is the result, both of this, of not natural phenomenon, but dedicated propaganda campaigns. He talks about reflexivity and Soros's fertile fallacies,
Starting point is 00:32:07 how you repeat a lie that seems believable enough with facts unrelated to evidence. and this is what you get. Scroll down a little bit more. He says, reflexive campaigns are everywhere. On the left, they call them the current thing. Raffs of memes, the MPCs, all changing their tune and saying the same thing at the same time.
Starting point is 00:32:26 He notes, you're being sorrowsed. You are. The reason everyone in your generation is suddenly talking about Israel is because propagandaists in your midst have made Israel your current thing. It's a reflexive campaign. Don't play the part in this. Folks, this tweet just absolutely nails it.
Starting point is 00:32:47 All right, I don't want to read the whole thing. If this is your everyday obsession and you're just bombarding people with unrelated facts, I saw a tweet about this yesterday, here is direct evidence of someone who has no idea what they're talking about and is low IQ. Very smart people take a pool of facts, okay? facts, real facts. And in order to come to a reasonable hypothesis about some issue de jour, they distill out facts that matter versus facts that are irrelevant. I've given you this example before.
Starting point is 00:33:28 A bank is robbed down the block here in Martin County. There are a thousand people who were in and out of the bank that day. Only one of them robbed the bank. Now, it was a fact that 99 others were there, but the smart investigator will learn to find one and eliminate the other. It doesn't mean it's not a fact. The other $9.99 were there. It means it's irrelevant to solving the crime.
Starting point is 00:33:49 Smart people do that. Their information acts like a sieve on the way down. That's how they get to a conclusion. Stupid people do the opposite. They have a conclusion in advance. We know someone robbed the bank. And then they absorb and put out there every useless fact to confuse everyone. Well, Tony was in the bank, too.
Starting point is 00:34:08 Yeah, Tony was watching his kid when the bank was right. Went to the bank earlier. I don't know. That's suspicious. just, no, you're just stupid. This is how propaganda exercises work. Once you see them, you can never unsee them. Please do not fall into this trap.
Starting point is 00:34:23 You all in this audience are smart. I know you've seen this a thousand times and you're like immune to it. I get it. But a lot of people aren't. They fall for this shit all the time. Folks, we have a real enemy out there. How do we know? Because they literally chant death to America.
Starting point is 00:34:40 They're not hiding it. Why do you, to those in the chat who may disagree with me and say, no, you know, Israel's definitely a bigger enemy. Okay. Where you got that from, I don't know. That's not based on any reason or logic. However, you don't think the Iranians with their death to America chant or pursuit of nuclear weapons are our biggest enemy in the region? I don't understand how you sit there and justify that in your head. why would you think after supporting proxy groups and terror attacks in the United States
Starting point is 00:35:14 trying to kill President Trump, we just had a conviction of a Pakistani man, Asif Merchant, no longer alleged for a plot to kill President Trump in conjunction with the Iranians. Did you miss that? How do you not consider them our greatest threat maybe in the world? Folks, the Russians and the CCP have nuclear weapons too. could they use them they could but i think they understand mad mutually assured destruction that we destroy them too the mullahs don't care the mullahs don't care they will die in a second they get a nuclear weapon we're finished don't tell me they won't use it are you insane have you
Starting point is 00:36:01 seen what these people talk about and if your spiritual leader is a guy that lives by the mantra by the death to America and you're in the United States on a visa or something else, then yes, you should get your ass out of here right away and you should be deported. Immediately by declaring allegiance to a spiritual leader that declares death to America. You're an American citizen. You have rights. There's a process. If you're here as a courtesy and we extended you that courtesy on a visa or you're in the
Starting point is 00:36:35 immigration process now, you're illegally just get out. but even the legal immigration process, and we find out that you pledge allegiance to your spiritual leader, Khomeini number 14, who shares a chance death to America, then you should get them out of the country ASAP. A country cannot survive like this,
Starting point is 00:36:56 with people on the inside, metastasizing like a cancer, calling for the death of our country in the country. What brings me to this? Where'd that come from? Do you see Metti Hassan, that freaking lunatic? Remember that quote he had, Gita time? You're like the cattle and this guy's just a nut.
Starting point is 00:37:16 He's just a freaking psycho. He's on Pierce Morgan show, basically whining about how we killed Komeni and how we wiped out the mullah class. He then, like, hints that maybe illegal. Like, really? It's illegal? How's that illegal? What law is that? felonious mopery in the umpteenth degree like did i miss a piracy on the open seas like did i miss
Starting point is 00:37:40 something and not only that he's like hey man you know a lot of people uh friends of mine consider this guy spiritually really the death to america guy the terrorist that's good to know that's really good to know don't take my word for it listen to him check this out are you pleased that the now dead iatollah hermany the older hermany is no longer ruling iran it's a good question I don't take pleasure in killing anyone. I don't think you should have illegally killed the leader, a foreign leader of a nation, who's also, by the way, a spiritual leader
Starting point is 00:38:15 to millions of Shia Muslims around the world. He wasn't my spiritual leader, but he's a spiritual leader to many people I know. I don't take pleasure in killing people. Well, I do if they want to kill me first. I'm not going to tell you it's pleasurable. I'm just going to tell you, I feel a little bit better when a dude who's like,
Starting point is 00:38:31 hey, you guys should all die, and I'm trying to get a nuclear weapon when he dies first, when he's taking a bit of a dirt nap before everyone else. Oh, you found it? Here, Medea, your son. The disbelievers, the atheists who remain deaf and stubborn to Islam, the people of no intelligence because they're incapable of intellectual effort,
Starting point is 00:38:50 it requires to shake off the blind prejudices about the existence of God. The Quran describes these atheists as the cattle, a cattle of those who grow the crops and do not stop and wander around. There's your homie there. Hey, man, I'm really sorry about this if you're out there. you're going through the immigration process. I'm actually being a little bit sarcastic. But if that's your spiritual leader,
Starting point is 00:39:13 then you should get to the country right now, like right now, like today. And this is, by the way, one of the great gifts of President Donald Trump is his ability to say things that are fairly obvious to the sane and rational actors all across the country who aren't on X every day and are just out there living their lives
Starting point is 00:39:35 at the kid's volleyball game or whatever, you know, doing things, parents do and have done forever. They say to themselves when they hear Donald Trump say things like, hey man, you know, death to America crowd, you should probably get out of the country. Matter of fact, if you're going to come here to the United States and not contribute and steal from us,
Starting point is 00:39:53 we don't give a shit where are you from. We should probably send you back to. And regular average Americans are like, yes, I'm all for that. It's only the liberals who revolt. This is Donald Trump's superpower. What? his ability to say things that override the media messaging machine that are just common sense, come here to contribute or get the hell out,
Starting point is 00:40:18 and then getting the media to leapfrog it with something stupid like, I can't believe that guy, such a racist for saying it. Nobody sees it that way who's sane and sound of mind, except you liberal media idiots. Here's what I mean. Here's Trump on revoking citizenship for people who come to the country and try to steal from us. this out. We're also going to revoke the citizenship of any naturalized immigrant from Somalia or anywhere else who is convicted of defrauding our citizens. We're going to get them the hell out of
Starting point is 00:40:48 here, Fas. Great. Great. And of course, the media comes back with what? With zero evidence that their assertion as a shred of credibility. What do they say? Folks in the chat, you know it. You know it. Someone said the trolls are active. Yeah, of course they're active. You mentioned the word Israel. bot brigade kicks it. It's not real, folks. I told you. It's not real. Hey, put up that Axios thing. This is a left-leaning out. She's back. She's back. Most Americans are too busy for social media, too normal for politics, too rational to tweet. They work, race kids, coach little league, and never post about it. It's not a small minority. It's a monstrous of silent majority. Folks, it's a bot thing. I'm telling you. Just mention, do a test on your Twitter account.
Starting point is 00:41:34 To put in, like, just put in the word Israel. And watch what happens. It's all. bullshit, I'm telling you. This is Donald Trump's superpower, however, saying things that make just sense to normal, reasonable people who are like, yeah, if you're going to come here and migrate here, then you should contribute to the country, our forefathers, and we built and paid taxes for,
Starting point is 00:41:58 and I mean, actually built. Bricklayers, carpenters, plumbers, electricians, tin knockers, steam fitters, rail workers, our military men and women who protect it all, cops, firemen, they all did this. We don't owe anybody around the world. Jack shit and Jack left town. We're a nice country.
Starting point is 00:42:21 We have an immigration process. My wife used it. People come here. They pledge allegiance to the United States. Good. We get good people. Fine. Great.
Starting point is 00:42:31 My grandparents came here from Sicily, Palermo. Fantastic. But there's a process, and you should contribute like everyone else does. Because we don't owe you anything. I'm sorry, but, you know, listen, you all can abide by a poem, you can buy by the real world. Give us your time. No, no, you know, give us people who want to contribute.
Starting point is 00:42:57 I'm sorry. This is common sense stuff, by the way. This is not complicated. He's got this gift to doing this. He's done it with a number of issues, the trans issue, voter ID? How bad does it have to, with Donald Trump, hey, I think we should produce an ID to vote.
Starting point is 00:43:16 You can't even buy like allergy medication without ID. Of course, liberal Lutheran, I can't believe that's racist. You just gave that answer for the other issue too about Somali fraud in Minnesota. Do you guys have another answer other than that's racist? Here's the view. Can we all agree far left like communist show, the view? Here's the hosts on the view
Starting point is 00:43:37 having to acknowledge the polling on voter ID, proving my point again, if you believe left-leaning social media, you would think there's a mass revolt against voter ID. I can't believe it. It's like Jim Crow 7.2. Really? Nobody actually believes that. Not in the numbers you think,
Starting point is 00:43:54 not in the numbers even close to what you think. Here's the view having to acknowledge this. Check this out. 33% support voter ID requirements, 95% of Republicans, 71% of Democrats, 76% of black people, 82% of Latino, 85.
Starting point is 00:44:06 Like, you go across, the board, people are okay with that. That's the view, folks. That's not a turning point conference. That's not the Jesse Waters' primetime show. That's the view. This is this guy's gift. Now, someone asked me the other day, a friend,
Starting point is 00:44:33 he's like, you always say that this Trump's gift, like to state the obvious and get the media to overreact, to show your ass theory. But he brought up a good point. You've never explained to the audience, he said to me, to a doctor friend of mine. If it's so obvious, then why haven't other Republicans done it in the past? Mitt Romney, George W., George H.W. Why haven't they just taken the same approach?
Starting point is 00:45:01 I'm going to tell you why. And shame on this guy for not telling you in the past. They've always been afraid of the media. No, they have. Yes, they have. The old adage around D.C., ask some old-timer, if you know some old D.C. bureaucrat who worked in the Bush administration, Bush to dad, Bush the son, either one.
Starting point is 00:45:23 They'll tell you, like the old adage was you don't mess with people who buy ink by the barrel. And if there was even a hint that anything you did could be falsely smeared with that guy's a racist, they would run away from it and just not do it. Trump just doesn't care. He knows it's all bullshit. He knows it's not true, and he just doesn't give a shit. That's the only explanation that matters because it's true. Just like the explanation the Wall Street Journal gave for why Trump chose to take military action in Iran,
Starting point is 00:45:54 because he doesn't want us to get dead. That's it. You don't need to. The thing about Trump is he's so transparent, it actually confuses and disorientes people. They are disoriented by honesty in D.C. This I have said before, and you know it, you P-1s. They are disoriented by honesty. We should trademark that. Put it on a t-shirt. They are. They don't. They've never heard a politician tell them the truth. So when Donald Trump, Trump tells you the truth about something, you know, voter ID's common sense or people cheat. Republicans wouldn't say that in the past or fight is hard for it because they're afraid of being called a racist. That when he says it, like everybody's just disoriented. Oh my God, haven't heard it's so crazy. The guy telling the truth. There's got to be an ulterior motive.
Starting point is 00:46:44 There isn't. There is no ulterior motive. Donald Trump has given, Justin, can you look this up? How many press avails, as Donald Trump given? How many press appearances? What? There is no patina mask on this guy at all.
Starting point is 00:47:05 You're just disoriented by the truth because you're not used to it. Here's, listen, the audio here's not great. It's not geese fault. or Jim's fault, it's just chopper talk with the helicopter in the background, okay? But he's asked a question about an FBI investigation going on right now in Georgia and Arizona into some allegations of potential fraudulent activity in the election. Again, this is common sense. There have been allegations of fraudulent voting activity and counting activity.
Starting point is 00:47:39 If there's nothing there, folks, there's nothing there. and will report it. However, the FBI investigation, I'm just telling you what I've seen publicly, not disclosing anything on the inside, there's been pretty extensive reporting that there's judicial process already started. In other words, an FBI agent had to go
Starting point is 00:48:01 and raise his right hand and swear in front of a judge that I have probable cause of malfeasance, lawbreaking, and this is it. And a judge said, yes, you would think the liberal media people in Georgia and now it's advanced into Arizona, too, would be celebrating this. All they talked about these dipshits in the 2016 election,
Starting point is 00:48:21 Russia stole the election, election fraud, Bush stole the election from Gore. You would think liberal media people would be like, this is awesome. We are finally going to find out how the Russian stole 2016 and all. No, no. The liberal media people just want to bury this story. They're not interested at all in the details.
Starting point is 00:48:43 of actual affidavits and how a judge, not a member of the FBI, not even a member of the executive branch, how a judge looked at the FBI's case and said, there's something there. Reasonable people are like, really? Here's Trump on the South Lawn asked about the investigation now moving on to Arizona, which again, you would think they'd be inquisitive about.
Starting point is 00:49:07 They're just like, no, no, that's not real, Mr. President. He had a different answer. Check this out. Arizona, why did the FBI seize election records in that state. Well, they probably thought the election was rigged. It wasn't rigged, though. How do you know?
Starting point is 00:49:21 Your own attorney general in 2020 said that there was not measurable voter fraud to change the outcome of the election. There's no, sir, where's the evidence for that? I love the question at the end. Thank you, guys. New York Post. Trump nears 500 press interactions in his second term, blowing past Biden. That's Biden's altar.
Starting point is 00:49:46 He's only in there a year. I love the part at the end where the reporter says there's no evidence. Folks, listen to what I just told. Please, liberals, just for a second, put down your latte. Put down your latte. And remember the cigarettes
Starting point is 00:50:03 with the long little stick things at around? Put that down, your smoking jacket. Take it off for a second. Your limousine liberal Karen's out there. And just shut up and listen for a second. take the cotton out of your ears, jam it in your mouth, and just listen to Brother Dan for a second. If that dipshit reporter,
Starting point is 00:50:20 who's supposed to be asking questions, by the way, not answering them, correct? That's the role of the reporter, correct? Is to ask the president to not answer it for him? Mr. President, why are you in Arizona? Oh, there's no evidence that reporter. Why are you answering the question? He's just answered the question for you. He's not involved in the investigation. He's the president.
Starting point is 00:50:38 It's an FBI investigation, contrary to what you may have been told. No, there's no evidence. Well, how did it get past the judge in Georgia? So just to be clear, understanding a little bit about the process, okay? Forget about the last job. The last one, when I was an actual ground field agent doing work myself, we arrested quite a few people for secret service crimes that we investigated.
Starting point is 00:51:05 You're telling me a regular FBI GS-13 went and lied in front of a judge at risk of being put in jail for perjury and just made the, the whole thing up? What, have the balls to say it? You just said there's no evidence. If there's no evidence, the investigation will uncover no evidence. Everybody will be cleared, and we can all move on. We all hope it was free and fair, correct? You see how these dipshits do this all the time? She's supposed to be asking a question, but she already has the answer in her head. This is evidence of bias, her priors. She has a prior thought, a confirmation bias in her head. The election was wonderful. Nobody cheated. It's all great.
Starting point is 00:51:46 great well and good. So why asked the question? What did Trump say? We haven't seen that in a while. By the way, what did Trump say there that is so controversial? What did he say that's so controversial? He thinks it was rigged. Okay, if it's not, we'll see that.
Starting point is 00:52:08 Folks, I told you, there is a bubble of stupid people in the left-wing media and progressive movement that ironically never progresses anywhere. there's a circle of stupid trying to infect our movement. There's foreign money going into a lot of this, foreign support going into a lot of this. And it's designed to make you believe that this wonderful country we have, unparalleled in human history, that's a fact, brothers and sisters, there has never been a country like the United States right now.
Starting point is 00:52:42 Wake up every morning and thank your Lord and Savior. I thank Jesus every morning. Every morning. I told you. Wake up every morning. I'm Dan Bongino. I love Jesus. Jesus loves me.
Starting point is 00:52:57 It makes me feel good. You don't got to do it. I do it. Thank the Lord you were born in the United States when you were and you're alive right now. The greatest country in the history of this planet. Don't let this little pocket of losers and media dipshits convince you that the place is falling apart. It's chaos.
Starting point is 00:53:21 Maga Civil War, Civil War everywhere. Folks, I'm looking out my window right now. There's like a supermarket across the street. I promise you, it's filled with people trying to buy lunch for their kids or something. It's not what's going on in the real world. It's not. I promise you it's not. Even MSNOWW had to note this.
Starting point is 00:53:47 MSNBC, do you see this segment? That's why I'm getting owned? So President Trump does a rally in Kentucky yesterday. for Ed Galriner's running against Massey. I endorse Ed and I hope he wins, right? He does this rally out there in Kentucky. So MSNBC, now MSNOWW, goes out and interviews to population. Now again, MSNOW and the liberal media narrative is MAGA Civil War, chaos.
Starting point is 00:54:10 Everybody hates this Iran war. We're all going to die. The mullas have won, folks. We should all surrender. We should all get on our knees and genuflect in front of our new rulers. Come 80, number seven. who can't even show his face, he just issues like a fatwa statement, okay? We should all get down on their knees and worship our new kings and queens, the Iranians.
Starting point is 00:54:33 They go out in the real world in Kentucky and interview a couple people. And unsurprisingly, these two interviews are great. They're short, but they're good. These are some of the best. These are better answers than you'll ever get from that A-hole, Paul Bagala. Pete Higg said they'd $15 million in state. Here's regular Americans talking about this great country. Notice how articulate, succinct, and sensible they sound compared to the lunatics in the liberal media.
Starting point is 00:54:58 Check this out. The result is what we're doing, and I think it's a good thing. Yeah, I mean, like I said earlier, short-term pain for what I hope will be a long-term gain. In Iran with a Western friendly government would be a complete game changer for the Middle East, which understandably would affect oil prices positively. That guy at the end has given some. the single best commentary on the Iranian military action that you've seen on any left-wing media channel,
Starting point is 00:55:28 absent Scott Jennings, saving CNN from their sanity. Gabe Fleischer, X, here's a post on X. There, quote, there is no MAGA split on Iran, folks. I don't care what left-wing lunatics tell you. Listen to the man in Kentucky. Poll after polly note shows that 85 to 90% of MAGA Republicans support the U.S. strikes in Iran. Many news outlets ran with stories from Tucker, Bannon, etc.
Starting point is 00:55:54 Without checking if they represented any meaningful segment of GOP voters. They don't. Here, there's the poll numbers for you there. Now, someone emailed me yesterday, had my email from the olden days, as I say. Someone email me and said, Dan, you focus on this lot. I focus on it because there are a lot of people who email me who really believe, like there is this MAGA Civil War going on. It's not happening.
Starting point is 00:56:20 Folks, we are winning. We are winning big. Did you see this video yesterday that was circulating around on X? Do you see that explosion? Does that look like the Iranians are winning? That's a massive ordinance penetrator, a huge bunker busting 30,000 pound freaking bomb. Does that look like the Iranians are winning to you? If I'm seeing that out of my back window, that doesn't look like winning.
Starting point is 00:56:46 That looks like they're getting their asses kicked. Look at that. case you missed it. Here's another one. It's besieged militia paramilitary assholes, setting up checkpoints in the street. Well, apparently, the IDF and the Israeli intelligence agencies in conjunction with our intel people have given away for the Iranian citizenry who are being harassed and tortured by these assholes to report their positions, and they're then being wiped out. Does that look like winning to you for the Iranians?
Starting point is 00:57:23 That sounds like winning to me. not like you're getting your ass kicked. And yet the other side continues to trip over their own cranks in their effort to run for the latest current thing on the left. What's the latest current thing? We got to defund ice. Oh yeah, that's a great idea.
Starting point is 00:57:43 After 20 million illegal things, here's the, by the way, here's the dipsittery of the left-wing media that'll drive you bananas once you see it. On one hand, the left-wing media wants you to panic. We're all going to be killed by drones and sleeper cells and there's going to be terror attacks everywhere. I can't believe Trump did this.
Starting point is 00:58:01 And then on the other hand, you got the Democrats shutting down the Department of Homeland Security, not funding them right now while this is going on. And the Democrat liberal media never makes the connection. It's not that they don't know the connection exists. They just avoid telling you. Show that line thing. Here's courtesy of the Democrats. This is a line at one of these airports.
Starting point is 00:58:23 I don't know where this was taken. It could be anywhere. Shit, could be PBI down there. Here's a line at TSA because the Democrats who tell you government's going to fix all your problems can't even figure out the government problem of lines at airports.
Starting point is 00:58:35 They keep doubling down on freaking stupid and it's like they love it. It's like they love being stupid. And Donald Trump is the one guy who like calls this bullshit out. Here's a tweet about California who you think they've gone crazy. they continue to like double down on insanity.
Starting point is 00:58:59 Half of people in California would support a one-time tax on the ultra-wealthy. Justin, get it out. Get it out. Here we go, folks. Here is an econ 101 lesson for liberal dipshits. We haven't used this in a while. Are you ready? Folks, get ready to take notes.
Starting point is 00:59:13 Here is the liberal guide to, I had it as loan repayment, but it stands, I call it Bon Genomics. Bon Genomics. It's, don't be a freaking bum. Take your rump. We can call it an ass on this show. There is my fancy drawing. I'm like Michelangelo with my drawings here. Take your ass.
Starting point is 00:59:34 We call it rump in this thing. You go to this building. Justin, do you know what the building is? It's a freaking job. Do you have a job? He does. He's in there right now doing it. Why do you have a job, Justin?
Starting point is 00:59:47 So he can make money. Okay? So when you go to the building called the J.O.B. Remember that song from the 80s? You got to have a J. A, O, B. Remember that? Get the job and you will make this thing called money. So, ass, seat, remove your ass from the seat. Get a freaking job. And there you go. You'll get money. Here, you can take this back. I'm amazed at that thing, that dry erase marker, by the way, is still going on that thing, considering it's like four years old now. It is like cake done. There's like no way to get it. It would take like battery acid to get that off. Go get a. job. Why do we talk to people like their babies? Trump doesn't do that. I'm not talking about kids who parents died or, you know, some 90-year-old woman with dementia who's got no living room.
Starting point is 01:00:38 Of course, it's stable sound society. We should take care of people. Maybe someone who's born with a physical disability who can't work. Yes, that's what a generous society like we are, this great country does. If you are a human being with four limbs, a pumping heart and a brain it works, get a freaking job. Stop with this rich guy in California. I should take his money. Who gives a shit about this rich guy in California?
Starting point is 01:01:07 Why is he? It's like the thing we talked about with Lindsay in the beginning, this current thing is him. Why is your entire life around this one issue? I don't understand. It's not, I support our relationship with Israel because I think it benefits us. I've been dealing with it for 20 years
Starting point is 01:01:24 my life and seen the benefit. It's not, I'm not obsessed with the issue. It is an interesting issue to me. Why is it the sole issue you always care about? This is what the left does with current thingism. You understand? I don't want to make my own money because I'm a lazy bum, so I'm going to obsess over some rich guys in California and a wealth tax, who by the way are never going to pay the tax. Jasmine, any idea why people in California are not going to pay the wealth tax? Yes, you're correct. She's like, I didn't even answer. But I know what you're thinking. Because they're going to leave. Put up the article, Wall Street Journal.
Starting point is 01:02:00 Thank you. This isn't even. Ex-Starbucks CEO, Howard Schultz, he left Washington, by the way, which just did another millionaire tax, pays $44 million for California penthouse. He's like, that's not the headline. Wait, the Starbucks CEO, isn't he a lefty guy? I don't even. Howard Schultz pays $44 million.
Starting point is 01:02:19 Oh, for a Florida, Florida, Pennhouse. Florida. Where's Florida? Oh, we're in Florida now. Liberals, please don't come here, by the way. I don't know that guy personally, but I don't want your money. Listen, it's a free country. I get it.
Starting point is 01:02:33 But can we instill like border control, Governor DeSantis, please? Byron Donald's, no liberals, I don't want anymore. Stop coming here. Jasmine, why aren't they going to pay the wealth tax? Because they're not there. Because they're leaving, you dipshits. This is what happens when you fall into this current-thingism, this trap where your entire life is like this one freaking issue.
Starting point is 01:03:02 I need to get money from wealthy people. You can get money from wealthy people. They start businesses. Get a freaking job. They will pay you. And then maybe one day you can be wealthy. You know, I know it's like fashionable on the left right now. I know it's fashionable to like Gavin Newsom's doing it and all these other guys on the left
Starting point is 01:03:28 are doing it. Everyone wants to claim some kind of like life impairment. Gavin Newsom, like we just found out he says he can't read or something. Like, when did this happen? Whether it did or did. It's like, I'm not whining about it. But my dad was a plumber and a building inspector for the town of Smithtown. My mom worked the register in finest supermarket in 64th place in Myrtle,
Starting point is 01:03:51 and then worked for Khan Edison later. Like, I was out born with some silver spoon. So I don't want any lectures from liberal assholes about, you know, what it's like to have to make your own money. I did make my own money. This current thing is, man, it's just freaking sickening. They're not going to pay your stupid tax. They're just going to leave.
Starting point is 01:04:16 And it's killing us in Florida too because we don't want you guys here. Nobody wants you. Liberals, nobody wants you. I know I can't stop you, but is there anything we can do to incentivize you to move to another liberal state? You won't do it.
Starting point is 01:04:32 How many people go from like California to Chicago? a number on that? Probably like a sliver. Where do they go? Lower no tax states. Nevada, Florida, Texas. How many people in Texas or Florida? Here, poll in the chat quick. How many people in Texas and Florida want more liberal millionaires moving to their state? Yes, I want them or no, I don't. I can guarantee you if we had Botchino, 100% of people, we don't want you. Stay where you are you've asked up your own state we don't want you here we go no no no no no no no get a job yes who just said that tag chat is on fire again nobody wants you people no f no zero florida's full please stay where you are poor makeup lady jacqueline she's i'm getting all like i'm so animated i'm
Starting point is 01:05:31 like sweating at this point she's like dying to come in here but there's not i can't i just been going on these rants. I told you I was in a mood today. It was like hyper-caffeinated. I know what you're going to say. He's like, when you're in a mood like this, Dan, you should rest. And the perfect place to rest, Reiki would be what? You see, I did it for you. I did it for you. I know what he was thinking. He's going to keep the show on track. I'm not done. I'm not done. What happens when Chuck Schumer says the quiet part out loud about voter rolls? He actually admits it. No, he didn't. Yes, he did. Usually this guy smarter than that? Well, not usually. Not him. Other Democrats. Not this time. I got a lot more.
Starting point is 01:06:12 I'm not done. I can't waste this. I've got a ton of energy today. I'm just in a total mood. Because I slept well. Perfect segue, Guy. And what did I sleep on, gee? Helix mattress, right? I did. I love helix mattress. Springs rolling around. You get that urge to clean up everything, big resets. Everyone wants to look good, feel good for the spring, clean the house, get in shape. while get in shape. You want to get a good night's sleep, too? You like that? One upgrade you could make to your life
Starting point is 01:06:41 to make your life so much better. Physically, emotionally, mentally, you got to get good sleep. You don't sleep, you're not going to feel good. Period. End the story. You're going to spend eight hours, sometimes more,
Starting point is 01:06:52 on this thing you call a mattress. Why would you not have the best one? That's a lot of time. Get rid of your old mattress and get the best in the business. Helix. I have a helix. I've had, this is, I don't know,
Starting point is 01:07:03 third, fourth one. I lost track. H-E-L-I-X super comfortable and they'll personalize it to you. Before Helix, nights were rough, wake up with a tight back, knees always hurting, overheating, that's the worst.
Starting point is 01:07:17 So I changed, bought a Helix mattress. Paula loves it, I love it. I made the switch totally different. I took their sleep quiz, you should do it too. And I got paired with the perfect mattress for how I sleep. Within the first week, I noticed the difference. I don't sleep on anything else.
Starting point is 01:07:32 Now I'm waking up refreshed instead of dragging myself out of bed. and it's wild how much better the entire day feels. Right now, Helix has an exclusive offer for you, Dan Bongino show listeners. Just go to Helixleep.com slash Dan and get 27% off sitewide. That's HELIX. Helixleep.com slash Dan for 27% off sitewide.

Sometimes we get lucky enough that the lying Democrats and their liberal media allies, almost sometimes just out of pure stupidity, accidentally say the quiet part out loud.
Starting point is 01:08:18 And when they do it, you know we're going to take it, cut it, and broadcast it to the entire world to see. Here's Chuck Schumer yesterday admitting that, you know, the voter rolls and the Save America Act that would just implement basic voter integrity measures like ID around the globe. Here is Chuck Schumer basically admitting that if I swear to take a look at these voter rolls, they may have to pull a lot of people up. No, he didn't say that out loud.
Starting point is 01:08:43 No, he did. This is not AI. Check this out. Isn't voter ID number one. It is about voter registration. It allows ICE to kick tens of billions of people off the rolls, off the rolls. And they don't tell them until election. day and you show them and you say, you're not registered anymore.
Starting point is 01:09:06 You're not registered here. You're not on the rolls. I adore these people when they come out and tell you the quiet part out loud. Why would ICE have to kick people off the rolls if the SAVE Act were implemented? Why would they have to do it now? Maybe because they're in the country illegally. And if you're in the country illegally and not a citizen, you cannot vote in federal elections. I'm just, I don't know, I'm just asking.
Starting point is 01:09:35 I'm just asking. Don't you love it when these dipshit say the quiet part out loud. Again, no sane person or no truth scotchman. But let's just say this. The overwhelming majority of rational sane people in the United States see right through this bullshit.
Starting point is 01:09:55 Yes, you should have to prove who you are and you're legally in the country to vote and pick leaders that can spend their money, send our troops to war and basically regulate our entire economy at this point. That's not where the Democrats are. I don't like to get into parochial politics too much because this is a, that's actually a global show.
Starting point is 01:10:16 We have people overseas, a big audience in Australia and elsewhere. People listen to show from all over. However, this one's important because it's indicative of how there are no more moderate Democrats. Don't believe this moderate Democrat bullshit. It's all nonsense. There's no more of the blue dog Democrat constituency, the Bill Clinton Democrat, that crap is over.
Starting point is 01:10:40 Abigail Spanberger got elected to the governorship of Virginia. Running is like this moderate, oh, I'm not one of the crazies. I don't believe in all that crazy fringe current thing stuff we've been addressing throughout the show. Really? Because the state of Virginia right now
Starting point is 01:10:55 is probably more liberal than the state of Maryland, which is dominated by a near super majority of lunatic Democrats. This one up yesterday. I thought this was a joke, too. The Virginia Democrats are now voting not only they want cheating in elections. They want to make us checking the cheating by like a hand count. They don't even want that.
Starting point is 01:11:17 Virginia Senate, GOP. Virginia Democrats just passed the bill banning the hand counting of ballots. prohibits such ballots from being counted by hand. You really think that this lunacy resonates with like those. two Kentucky folks who were interviewed on MSNOW about Iran. Folks, the party is nuts. Please stop with the like anyone, oh, you know, there are some good, there were no good Democrats left.
Starting point is 01:11:45 They lie to you to get elected and then do crazy shit. That's the one thing that drives them crazy about Trump. Everything he said he was going to do, he did. They're disoriented by Trump's truth and honesty because they're used to being bullshitted. You see that tie-in? By people like Spamberger who run, I'm not running with the. AOC types and then get in there and go even crazier than AOC. Folks, we're dealing with psychos.
Starting point is 01:12:11 I played for you yesterday that Abby Phillips viral segment on CNN, where after the terror attack in New York, the Islamo fanatic terror lunatics who threw those two TATP bombs, after they tried to paint it as like, you know, some like anti-Muslim attack, that's not what it was at all. They tried to paint it as an attack on Mom Dami, the lunatic mayor in New York. How many freaking retractions is CNN going to have to issue?
Starting point is 01:12:43 What do you mean, Dan? Here is another CNN segment with another crazy person. It's Anna Navarro, right? Here's Anna Navarro and CNN doing the exact same thing. Trying to pretend that this Islamo fanatic terror attack in New York was directed at Mamdami. Totally fake. They did it again, hence the title. at today's show. Check this out.
Starting point is 01:13:05 Supposedly, some of these comments are as a result of the attempt against, against Mayor Mandani in New York, who was raised Muslim, was he not, himself? So they're being anti-Muslim to def-and-and-they, and they're finally defending Mandani over something. Be clear, the attack wasn't on Mayor Mamdani. It was on people protesting. It was attacking protesters, people protesting Mom-Dani. Right by his house. It wasn't, to frame it as an anti-Muslim attack would actually.
Starting point is 01:13:34 completely reversed what happened. Someone who shouted Allah Akbar threw a bomb that didn't go off at the protesters. It was holy Moses, CNN. I don't know. Where do we go with this, guys?
Starting point is 01:13:52 I don't even know what, I don't even know what to say. Is there anyone in charge at that network? Can say, like, we have like, we have an email. I'm not going to put it out, but say it's like everyone at everyone.com. Like, we have an email, everybody. And if something bad happens, everyone gets it.
Starting point is 01:14:11 Andy, the sequel, Josh, Guy, Jim, Jasmine, everybody. Hey, guys, don't do this. Don't hit the red button in the studio or the studio will explode. Okay, don't do it. Is there like a CNN all email? Like everyone at CNN.com. Can you just put out an email that this was not an attack on Mamdami? How freaking stupid are you idiots at CNN that you keep having an issue
Starting point is 01:14:38 the same correction. Am I wrong? Okay. How many times are we going to do this? Listen, man, I'm telling you, I'm not like putting anybody on a pedestal, but I've worked in and out of Fox for 10 years. If something goes wrong on the air and you repeat it,
Starting point is 01:15:00 I promise you're getting an email like, hey, man, that was wrong, you're going to have to correct it. Happened on my show one time. We put up a chart. There's a long story. The chart was inaccurate. We're like, hey, the chart was inaccurate. It happened.
Starting point is 01:15:12 It happens. And you're on the air all the time. It happens. I'm not putting myself on a pedestal. I didn't think that lady was going to show up at the Kavanaugh hearing, and she did for those really diehard P-1s. You just did the same thing they did the other day. His video is great.
Starting point is 01:15:30 Hat tip Maze Moore. Here's what I'm talking about here. Here is a history of left-leaning hosts on CNN and other networks, four side-by-side. just randomly spouting out stupid inaccurate shit. The first one I have personal interest in is obviously the pipe bomber case, which is still ongoing.
Starting point is 01:15:50 And you'll see the race is misidentified. Then you'll hear like Caitlin Collins at the end for those listening on audio. But hat tip maize more, great account on X. Here's just, this is what we have to do on liberal media people all the time. We have to stop them from spouting insanity. And they're, I'm trying to help you.
Starting point is 01:16:08 Check this out. Brian Cole Jr., a 30-year-old white man from the D.C. suburbs is charged with transporting an explosive device. Publicans say Muslims don't belong here after an attempted terror attack against New York's mayor, Zoranam Dani. And the House Speaker, Mike Johnson, says nothing, really, to condemn those comments. Why is it so hard to believe that someone could be an exceptional athlete and a woman? If you want to protect women and daughters, she is a woman. She is somebody's daughter and she's a woman in sports. And it can conjure up that old statement, ain't I a woman?
Starting point is 01:16:44 President Biden has spent days locked in intense preparation surrounded by his closest advisors at Camp David. And our sources are telling us tonight that full mock debates are underway at the podium under the lights. He's even watching tape to know exactly what he's going to see when he steps up to that lecture. His team shot a video during a walkthrough of the CNN studio. And as I reported while covering him at the White House,
Starting point is 01:17:07 when Biden prepares, he does so incredibly intensively. The former president, on the other hand, who is not known for his attention to detail, is talking about how very hard it is to prepare, while at the same time insisting he doesn't need it. So in reverse order, Trump's an idiot, but Biden is this preparation debate genius. The boxer man is really a woman.
Starting point is 01:17:35 What was the other one? The second... I'm trying to think, what were they? The first one, was Tapper, the black man is a white man. Oh, and then the other one was, this was an attack on Mondami. Is there any editorial control
Starting point is 01:17:54 at these liberal media outlets at all? Are you going to endlessly humiliate yourselves? My gosh. I saw you guys doing air squats before, by the way. You get your air squats in? You think I'm making this up with the air squats? Josh doing them now. I didn't get to do them because I've been ranting so much during the show.
Starting point is 01:18:15 But you think I'm making this up with the air squats during the day? You got the air squats video? Is that Dr. Ronda? I pulled this the other day for some of it's kind of like a bit of a timeline cleanse. I have to listen to this liberal media idiocy. I want you all to be healthy. I'm a big health hacker. I'm 51.
Starting point is 01:18:32 I feel like I'm, you know, sometimes like I'm falling apart with it. If I don't do this health hack stuff, forget it. I don't want to get dead. I already had to get dead scare, not pleasant. I gave lymphoma and cancer a review on Yelp, and I gave it two thumbs down. Two thumbs down. I didn't like it.
Starting point is 01:18:51 It was no fun. You know what the worst part about it is, by the way? You like the cancer, right? Like the getting dead part? No, that's not even worse about it. I don't like needles. I hate them. You know that.
Starting point is 01:19:01 I don't try to play tough guy on TV. I don't like needles. And when you go through cancer treatment, everybody's sticking you with a needle. You get this port in your chest. They're like jamming things in your chest. It's like getting stabbed. They're like,
Starting point is 01:19:12 these freaking syringes too are like that thick. You have to put lydicane on the port. It's like, I hate needles. So I don't want to get them. So I learned this little trick to do like 100 air squats a day. I don't know, 25 times, 10, 10 times. Get Marigay in here. We'll do some math.
Starting point is 01:19:34 Five, 20 times. Whatever you want to do. I'm not. crazy though, folks. It works. Play that clip in case you think I just pulled this out of my caboose. There's a major finding in 2025 found a danger of being active sedentary, which is people who exercise for like 30 to 60 minutes, but sit for the remaining 10 hours a day. If you sit for more than 10 hours a day, your risk of cardiovascular disease increases even if you meet weekly exercise goals, because prolonged sitting shuts down lipoprotein lipase, an enzyme essential for burning fat and
Starting point is 01:20:07 cleaning glucose from the blood. That's annoying to read because I feel like that's me. Yeah, and being sedentary is a disease. You can change the trajectory of your life by doing 10 air squats every hour on the hour. And there was a study that was done on this that showed that if you do 10 air squats every hour, this can compensate for your sedentary lifestyle because unfortunately this is the life we're living in. We're becoming more sedentary in our day-to-day lives. We're sitting more. We're not going out as much. There's younger kids on video games. They're scrolling. There's
Starting point is 01:20:45 so much happening that is involving our sedentary lifestyle, which is obviously, like you said, increasing our risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, etc. Yep, you can do it. Like this. There you go. Ten of those. If you do ten of those, you can outweigh the benefits of a 30-minute power walk. Every hour. Yeah. For how many hours? Eight.
Starting point is 01:21:10 Okay. So I could set an alarm on my phone. Every hour. Just get up or every 45 minutes get up and do an air squad. Hat tip, diary of a CEO, pretty interesting podcast. What's her name? Louisa. That's not Dr. Ron.
Starting point is 01:21:24 No, Lisa Mich... Luisna, Nicole. Folks, I'm just looking out for you. Brother Dan, there's the studio. Josh, Justin. Dude, Justin looks like he's like 40. seven feet tall there. Guy, of course, did his already.
Starting point is 01:21:38 Guy's actually pretty good exerciser. I'm just trying to reduce everyone's health care costs and make everybody out. I'm not kidding. That stuff works. I do like 200 a day. My legs got huge too. Do your air squads. Because what's the number one rule of the Dan Bonjino show?
Starting point is 01:21:56 Don't get dead. You know, listen, we can't talk about liberals sitting on their asses, not getting jobs when we're actually like literally actually talking about sitting on our butts. It's bad for you. Sitting's do new smoking. And for those people saying like, hey, man, I don't think I have the time for this. No snuggy for he. Oh, check.
Starting point is 01:22:16 Put that guy. Give him a highlight. Camaro 3102. No snuggy for Ging. No, he's not, he doesn't have his Obi-1 Canobi snuggy on. There you go. Good job, Camaro 3102. At tip to you.
Starting point is 01:22:31 Did you? You did you? Just did it? Good. A New Jersey girl says, just did it. good for you. I'm just trying to take care of you guys. I saw this video too and I put this in the show. I saw this pop yesterday. Totally unrelated. Here's this gym guy and he's an older guy in the gym bust in his ass and he just randomly walks around the gym. You know, everybody out there like,
Starting point is 01:22:50 I'm not saying it's you, but if you know, you don't want to do your 10 air squats, you know, you don't want to do your 10 air squats and assuming you're on like bad knees. I got bad knees. I do it anyway, but you know, I don't only blow out your knees or your back or anything. However, here's this guy walking around the gym talking to people busting her ass in the gym like, hey you guys have jobs guys again man i work 40 50 hours a week and you're still here look at these dudes check this out how many hours a week do you work 40 how many hours week do you work okay how many hours a week do you work uh like working in here yeah work no work your job my job uh nine 10 hour days two in the morning so about 12 in the afternoon wow so over 40 hours
Starting point is 01:23:35 Okay. I'm just chatting. All right. Thanks. Appreciate it. Work? Yeah, work. Job? Yeah, your job. Yeah, fifth. But you're in here? Every day. Five minutes.
Starting point is 01:23:48 Wow. Up first. 60, 70? All right. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Uh, 40.
Starting point is 01:23:55 Okay. And you're in here. Oh, for sure. Okay. Without a job. All right, baby. Be like you, baby. How many sets you're going to do?
Starting point is 01:24:02 All them. How many reps? All them. Fifty. And you got time for the gym? Oh, all right. See you, man. There's old man muscle.
Starting point is 01:24:12 Old man muscle, O one. Is that a hat tip to you? No excuses, man. I'm like 51 and decaying at a rapid rate. Got to do them. I'm just trying to take care of you. All right, listen, get back. I'm sorry for these little segways.
Starting point is 01:24:26 I hope you guys don't mind them too much, but I have, I increased the length of the show because I feel like I wasn't getting fit and everything into an hour. Just so you know, the reason I had to limit the podcast before I took the government job to an hour was because the radio show started at 12. So now that I have more time, I like to hang around. So I hope you're enjoying the extra content. If not, up to you, you know, totally cool. This is, you know, it's a meritocracy.
Starting point is 01:24:53 If I don't merit your attention, then I understand you tune it out. But I'd like to get off topic with politics all the time, just not often, but often enough. I wanted to show you something yesterday, too, talking about President Trump. You got that, him giving out the challenge coin. Hold on a sec, though. Don't put it up yet. Folks, one of the distinct pleasures I had voting for this great guy is how much he cares about our troops.
Starting point is 01:25:17 And I want to kind of sandwich the show. And we talked about the troops in the beginning. Our soldiers or airmen or Marines or Navy folks, people in the Coast Guard, how they bust their ass all the time. And this story about them occasionally getting staged. and a lobster tale is the biggest political blunder of all time if the left really wants to make a story out of this. Because the American people are going to be like, give these guys and women as much steak and lobsters as they want. I'm telling you, like, President Trump loves the door kickers.
Starting point is 01:25:48 He loves law enforcement. He loves the military. I know you guys know that, but I just want to assure you. And I want you to listen to me because it's really important. Forget the job stuff. But I've known this guy a long time. I promise you that is not some shtick. Like he adores these guys.
Starting point is 01:26:06 So you play it again. Here he is getting off of Marine 1. And he has these really like expensive coins. I showed you one. He has these like dark MAGA and presidential coins. He pays for him. They're really, really. Here he is giving one out to one of his Marines right there.
Starting point is 01:26:21 This is just amazing. Like that's just a little thing. I get it. But he has such respect for our military.
