be in this business because I would come here, you're going to get all the clicks, but I would rather just tell you that the government was being transparent and honest with you about the attempt on Donald Trump's life and that all the information's out in the media. And then I can analyze it. We'd still have a great audience. We don't need to profit off this stuff. It's kind of sick to even think that way. Unfortunately, people aren't comfortable sharing information with the media. So they're sharing it with me, their former colleagues, their friends, and the Secret Service. They've let you down.

I've got a lot for you today, folks. Stay tuned. The opening of this show is going to be, it's going to disappoint you a lot.

All right, fellas, let's get this show started. By the way, we may have a special guest today.

I'm 90% sure, but it is the RNC, so a lot of curveballs coming your way. You're saying, Dan, on the podcast? Yes, on the podcast. So we're hoping around 1040, so that just so you know, there may be a minute or so where we're moving some stuff around so uh what paula james is here so we're moving some

stuff around just be patient with us first let me get this out of the way um a high level source reached out to me last night and said to me that the rooftop that the shooter engaged from as i told you last night during the tucker carlson special and then on don jr show was actually supposed to be posted by a local police department or non-secret service counter sniper team so we're clear on the facts there were two counter sniper teams from the secret service two those two were assigned to the scene. That rooftop was obviously deemed a threat. It was a line of sight issue. So because they didn't have the assets, and I'll get to why in a few minutes, it involves Dr. Jill Biden, who has an extremely low threat

level relative to Donald Trump. This is the breaking news. For some reason, that local police department, this is not about Monday morning quarterbacking, folks. Again, this is not a football game. These are people's lives. For some reason, that local tactical counter sniper team didn't make it to the roof. What I'm hearing from sources is that that tactical team positioned it through a second floor window, which seeds the high ground. Now, I wish I wasn't breaking this on my show. The fact that nobody is comfortable talking to the media because there's such insider hacks, they're afraid they're all going to be exposed and they all have to come to me,

candidly, folks, is a travesty. But think about what I just told you. For a second, everybody take a pause and a time out think about the multiple security failures here and the lying there was supposed to be a tactical cs team on that roof they didn't make it to the roof they chose a second floor window instead which seeds the high ground obviously and nobody noticed nobody noticed that that post that cs post was unmanned nobody had any idea now this explains a lot the i gotta i gotta control the expletives. Really? The bullshit you're...

I just said that. The bullshit you're hearing coming out of Secret Service headquarters. Now does it make sense? Did you see a few days ago? And by the way, they're watching right now. Make no mistake. Did you see a few days ago?

I don't know, about three, four days ago, the Secret Service came out with a statement through this PR flack, Googly Emmy and others, and these guys should all resign immediately. And did you hear what they said? They did it kind of in a winky nod, sleazy kind of way, where they tried to pawn this off on the locals.

Do you remember that, folks in the chat? Do you remember? How do we have 120,000 people? We just started six minutes ago. Is that even right? That's just crazy. They tried to, now does that make sense? The local CS team never made it to the roof counter sniper team so when the secret service got massive backlash

for appearing to pawn this off on the locals even though what they were saying was true even though it was the secret service's responsibility to check that the post was manned the secret service's responsibility to check that the post was manned, the secret service then dialed the story back and said, oh, we're not trying to blame the locals. This is our responsibility. And then when they got backlash for saying, okay, well, if it's your responsibility, why was there no one on the freaking roof? Mother, why was there no one there what did the secret service director say she came out with this ludicrous absurdity that you know i don't know man the slope of the roof uh we shouldn't be up there it's like an osha violation or something what bro what did you do but let me tell you an OSHA violation.

There are things in the motorcade and other security mechanisms we use, I'm sure probably aren't safe to be around. You think I sat there and went, OSHA, can we get a ticket on this item here? You do your job. You do your job and you keep the president alive. That excuse about the slope of the roof is another lie. Are you getting now what's going on? The Secret Service is lying so much and so often to try to cover up this total Charlie Foxtrot, if you know what that means, you military guys out there.

They're lying so much that they're forgetting their lies. And they're not savvy enough like a Jen Psaki to lie effectively. There was supposed to be a local post. They never showed up and no one from the secret service checked. They never showed up on that roof. Nobody checked. It also explains the possible hesitation by the other CS teams when this guy was encountered on the roof. Maybe they confused him for someone else thinking it was posted up by locals and it took maybe a couple of seconds to unscrew that. You're not hearing this anywhere else. Folks, let your show prep begin now. Hat tip to Great Rush Limbaugh. We're borrowing that line from the legend.

again now, hot tip to great Rush Limbaugh. We're borrowing that line from the legend. Let your show prep begin now. This stuff should be coming out from whistleblowers, but they don't trust you in the media. They trust me because I was one of their brothers. And let me tell you something, to the men and women in the secret service I work with, this isn't the secret service I knew. They are calling out to me, horrified that this happened. I don't want you to think that the good men and women there, because there are some, I don't want you to think at all that anyone's proud of this. They are horrified. They are horrified. They're embarrassed. They are reaching out to me, go get them, keep their feet to the fire. We got to fix this thing. This thing is a disaster. Folks, the story keeps changing now. Everybody keeps changing the story because they can't remember their own lies, man. Just tell the truth. You don't have to remember life. Someone

asking me my age, I'm going to tell you it's 49. I'm not going to lie to you 15 different times and tell Guy something different than I told Michael so I got to remember it now media people I'm going to help you congressional representatives don't mean to sound like an asshole but I'm going to help you too immediately today if you haven't already

and you may have if you have forgive me subpoena and demand what's called the SOD surveys from the Secret Service. That stands for Special Operations Division, the surveys before they disappear. Because if what I'm telling you is true, you will see on the counter sniper survey, and you will see on the counter assault team tactical survey that that building was supposed to be posted on the roof. It'll say it in writing. It'll have been emailed unless they're deleting this stuff now,

which I mean, God help them if they do. That post will be on the survey. They're lying. Here's the other piece of news you're going to hear for the first time here. I am hearing from very reputable, again, unimpeachable sources that the failed secret service director is being silenced right now by the Biden administration and DHS Secretary Mayorkas. They are coming out to defend her publicly. Why? Because, Paula is my friend uh ed he's a guy in a white jacket can you bring him he's a good friend sorry folks this guy i love this guy we used to work together in the secret service he's outside he's got a white jacket on here's what i'm hearing they are being silenced they are silencing the secret service director it is not an accident

that myorkis came out publicly defending her, Cheadle. She knows where all the cookies are in the cookie jar. They know if she goes rogue right now, everything I told you is going to come out in the wash. The failure to secure Mar-a-Lago properly, the repeated turning down of additional security assets, They know this is going to come out in the wash. So they're silencing her right now. I'm getting this from the highest levels. They told her, shut up or your job is at stake. I hope you all caught my interview last night

with Tucker and Don Jr. It was one of the most electric hours we've ever done on the Dan Bongino podcast. It's out there now. We talked about some of this stuff. I strongly encourage you guys to watch it. And before I go deeper into this stuff, I just want to congratulate my coworker at now coworkers. The first one I've had in the content side, Evita Duffy, Talkers Magazine and others picked this up. Bongino Report launches the early

edition with Evita Duffy. It was a huge success. Thank you all you P1s for tuning in. 75,000 views on yesterday's show, 5,000 people live. That is absolutely awesome. What's that? It's at rumble.com slash Bongino Report if you want to tune in every day. So thank you so much. I want to get to that because we really love Evita. She's done a great job.

So folks, to folks in Congress out there and people in the media, demand a look right now at the CAT survey, the counter-assault team survey, the counter-sniper survey, the SOD surveys. They will give up everything. They're not classified anymore. They can blurt out names and other things like that. that's fine. They can black them out. The survey's not classified anymore. The sites already happened. This is a national apocalyptic tragedy that needs to be prevented. Think about what I just said. If we don't change this, it's going to happen again. They are lying. And the trajectory they're lying marries up with the story I just told you. Oh, the local PD did it. Really? You're throwing them under the bus? You guys should have

checked. Oh, we're not throwing them under the bus. It was a sloped roof. Really? It was a sloped roof? That's interesting because the other CS teams were on roofs that had an even bigger slope. They're bullshitting you. They're lying and they're destroying this agency. Cocaine gate, the January 6th tax. They are absolutely decimating and destroying this agency. Someone said to me in the chat, thank you. Don't thank me. I appreciate it.

I love you all. You're my friends. You're my brothers and sisters. 160,000 people here with me right now. But you don't have to thank me. The truth matters. And I'm telling you the truth right now, but you don't have to thank me. The truth matters. And I'm telling you the truth right now. And I say, please, local media, please start running with this story. I can't be

the only one driving the news cycle here. It's got to be you as well, because we got to keep Donald Trump alive. You know, Joe Biden's safety is at risk too. I don't care if you're a diehard Democrat. If the secret service has inadequate security plannings and a failed director, that guy's at risk, too. Folks, all the, quote, right people, if you know what I mean, and wrong people, they can't stand Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. They hate him so much. And I wanted to start out the show today with something a little different on this. We have got to keep these two men alive. It is insane we're having this conversation. I want you to listen to this guy I honestly

really can't stand. This guy Yuval Harari, big globalist, WEF loves this guy. All of the people you dislike, the anti-nationalists who think nationalism is some form of racism and think you should sideline the United States to a new global order. I want you to listen very clearly to this minute of Yuval Harari talking about why Donald Trump is such a threat. And this is making me really suspicious about this whole plot to take him out. Check this out. Are you concerned that Trump might be elected again shortly? I think it's very likely. And if it happens, it is likely to be the kind of like the death blow to what remains of the global order.

And he says it openly. Now again, it should be clear that many of these politicians, they present a false dichotomy, a false binary vision of the world, as if you have to choose between patriotism and globalism, between being loyal to your nation and being loyal to some kind of, I don't know, global government or whatever. I don't know, global government or whatever. Folks, we came within millimeters, possibly less, of losing our best hope of breaking up this new faux globalism.

I say faux because they're painting it out to be globalism as if we're all going to sit around a campfire with shared values roasting freaking s'mores. Are you shitting me, bro? When has that ever happened? The entire history of humankind and homo sapiens has been a battle for scarce resources and one tribe against the next. Are you freaking stupid?

What are you, rewriting the cosmos? That's not how any of this shit works. We protect our nation first. I got nothing against other countries or other people. I visit them. They've all been nice to me, but we take care of us. We don't take care of other people first. I got nothing against other countries or other people. I visit them. They've all been nice to me, but we take care of us. We don't take care of other people first. And Donald Trump is the

single biggest threat to that. That's why you hear shit like this all the time. He's a threat to the global order. Good brother. Good. I'm like, that's, that makes me really excited to vote for him. Now you may have seen this. You may have seen this animation. I'm going to VO it in a second here. The voiceover, it's kind of in the street. Look at this. Do you see this? Look.

Watch. Play it again. This is an animation of how close we came to losing President Trump on the stage. For those of you listening on audio, it's a, hold on one second before you play it again. It's a side-by-side, you're hearing Donald Trump's voice slowed down for a reason. It is a side-by-side, piece-by-piece comparison,

one using animation, one using the actual footage, using the 3D animation of how close these three rounds came to penetrating the skull of Donald Trump and unquestionably killing him. We came within millimeters, ladies and gentlemen, of losing our best hope. Watch this again. Look at these rounds.

Take a look what happened. Watch the turn. Look at that. Here's the other one. Now look at the third one. The third one based on that animation. And hat tip, by the way, at point consciousness via TikTok. one based on that animation and hat tip by the way at point consciousness via tiktok good job on that that third one there the third one was the one that missed by about i don't

know two inches maybe three inches the other ones one didn't miss hit him in the ear and i mean we're talking about millimeters to the to the right on this round if you look at that animation, we're talking about millimeters to the right on this round, if you look at that animation. And we're having an entirely different conversation right now. Then you get morons and tools like Michael Steele, who shamefully used to run the RNC, an absolute tool bag. Did you hear him this morning on MSNBC, questioning whether he was hit by a bullet or hit by glass?

Bro, number one, what does it even matter? A bullet was shot, even if it, one, it did hit him. But if it didn't and it hit a piece of glass that sharted his ear off and could have penetrated his eye and killed him, what's your freaking point, asshole? Oh, it would be so much better if a piece of glass had gotten in his eye and killed him and he bled to death. What a piece of shit.

These people are freaking worthless. Folks, Dana White summed it up best. Dana White, the head of the UFC, has been a loyal friend to Donald Trump, a loyal friend of ours, a loyal friend to Rumble. I love Dana White. He did an appearance on the Pat McAfee show. Let me take a quick break. I'm going to get to that in a second. You don't want to miss this because he freaking nailed it.

This thing went viral. He's our best shot right now and this dude is a badass man you don't get up from nearly getting shot in the head and getting a piece of your ear shot off and start screaming fight if you don't got freaking balls of steel titanium hey today we have one of our newest sponsors on the show berno when it comes to protecting your family it's not just about having a firearm. I'm a huge second amendment advocate, but it helps to have a non-lethal option out there. Just imagine this, right?

An imminent threat comes to you and your family. Instinct may drive you to reach for a firearm immediately, but what if there were a way to defend yourself and deescalate a situation without the irreversible consequences of deadly force? We have it now. Burna, B-Y-R-N-A. They have a non-lethal pistol launcher equipped with tear gas and kinetic

ammo, and it can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes. No need to go DEFCON 1. We just need protection to ensure we can defuse a situation and drive the threat away. I've trained with firearms my entire life, and let me tell you, the pistol Burna sent me is one of the easiest to use and operate.

If you don't own a firearm, this is a really great option to have. Made in America, legal in all 50 states, requires no background checks, and shipped right to your door. burna byrna.com slash dan now for an exclusive 10 discount for my listeners today that's byrna.com slash dan excuse me check out burna you won't regret it i gotta get a cough button eventually most professionals have that but i'm the most unprofessional professional ever so i've never done it jim was like you need to come like yeah i mean just cough on the air it sounds more natural probably driving everyone crazy i want you to

listen to this this is why the left is now really pissed and you're seeing lunatics like michael steel fake republican coming out with things like well was he really shot joy reed well is he a victim now a victim he was almost killed, asshole. I mean, a freaking two, two, three round zipped off the top of his ear. Can we at least shut up about what happened and stick to fighting him on the issues? Of course we can't because we're dealing with communists. This is what they're pissed off about. Here's Dana White on the Pat McAfee show in a clip that went absolutely nuclear.

Folks, listen, snapshots and soundbites. Soundbites matter. Check this out. How is he and what does your week look like? And was there ever a thought of him going to UFC Denver? No, he was never going to UFC Denver. I wasn't even in, I was on a plane to Italy. So he wouldn't go to the UFC unless I was there, number one. Number two, I've been saying this forever about this guy. He is one of the toughest, most resilient human beings that I have ever met in my life. And let me tell you what, everybody wants to act like a tough guy, right? Everybody wants to act like a tough guy. Well, when the shit goes down, you find out who tough guys are and who tough guys are not.

who tough guys are and who tough guys are not. This guy is the legitimate, ultimate American badass of all time. You know, the guy takes a shot at him. He goes down. He stands up, and then he starts chanting to the crowd, you know, fight, fight, fight. I literally was blown away. I called him as soon as I landed. I called him, and he answered, and he was already home from the hospital.

We talked for like 30 minutes. Pat, I'm telling you, I have never known a human being like this in my life. He is literally one of the toughest, most badass guys of all time. Ladies and gentlemen,

I hate when we have to have these conversations about politics, but I was on Ben Shapiro's show today, and I said, listen, politics is a projection of power. That is what politics is. It's using a structure in place we call the Constitution to project

power and get things done, correct? Politics, we, if they are going to use this moment to destroy Donald Trump, then we should tell the truth about it and let people see who Donald Trump really is. And the projection of power involves two specific marketing vehicles. I've said it over and over. Folks in the chat, what are they? They are snapshots and sound bites that's what the projection of power and the political process is from the marketing side photos and sound bites that is it that is it the people reading white papers maybe it's a lot of you got my friend james here maybe it's him

he's into politics they're already voting republican they're not convincibles. I don't mean that in a bad way. The people who are independents out there who have jobs, I'm not knocking them. They go to work. They're UPS drivers, railroad workers. They don't have time to read freaking white papers. They're making the country run. They see snapshots and soundbites. That snapshot of Donald Trump with his fist in the air, ladies and gentlemen, it's probably the most powerful snapshot we're ever going to see in modern politics. And sound bites like that from the great Dana white are what's got,

what are going to alter independence minds about who Donald Trump really is. I'm listen, man, market flag. I'm not going to flag it. Now getting back to what I talked to at the beginning of the show, because I promised you, I wouldn't leave this dangling out there. Why in the hell wasn't that rooftop where the shooter engaged from tactically? Why wasn't a secret service uniformed division counter sniper team there? Why? Why did we rely on local assets who apparently, according to reports, did not make it onto the rooftop and we never checked it?

Well, the great Susan Crabtree, highly, highly recommend to follow at Susan Crabtree on X. She has been all over Secret Service failings for years. You're not going to find a better reporter. She says resource questions have been popping up why did they not have a counter sniper team from the secret service Crabtree's told that the secret service managers signed off on only two CS teams for the Butler rally the U.S. spokesman is yet to dispute this although he readily tried to dispute my assertion that resources were diverted from Trump to Jill Biden you can read the rest of the tweet there. It's a lengthy

one, but it's a good one. Folks, let me tell you something. If it turns out that Jill Biden, Dr. Jill Biden, prominent neurosurgeon, she's up there with Ben Carson, folks. You know how many brains she's cracked open and operated on? It amazing amazing if it turns out that dr jill biden with a threat footprint one to ten being about a six based on my professional experience was given more cs teams at a smaller event with a lesser threat footprint than don Trump, who's a 10 on a threat matrix, 10 out of 10. And he was only given two teams. Then again, folks, people need to, people need to be investigated here for potential criminal negligence. That's how bad this is at the management level and the lying. Get them all on the record and under oath and please i'm begging you guys as friends

please up there in congress anyone doing this investigation get your hands on the counter sniper survey and the counter-assault team survey from the secret service today if that thing was supposed to be manned it'll be lined out right there on the paper and there'll be no disputing it. You can stick it in the director's face and say, you are lying about the sloped roof. You're making that up. Folks, a lot of these security decisions like prominent neurosurgeon, Dr. Jill Jill getting more CS teams or potentially more assets than Donald Trump despite a lower threat footprint. These are clearly political, not security decisions. Does anybody have an explanation otherwise? Hey, the threat's really

high on our friend Jack. Okay, well, let's give him less assets than Jill, even though Jill doesn't have that high of a threat matrix profile why would you do that oh jill's married to the guy who's in charge of the agency now that seems to me like a political decision bro because it is no that's right he said they would never do that it's all on the up and up folks of course the secret service director is lying i'm telling you she's not telling you the truth about this i have it on firsthand resources and as i said to these people it is time for you to speak up life is calling pick up the phone big people do big things in big times you need to do big things right now. Weak men create hard times.

You've heard the expression. Strong men create good times. You want good times? It's time to do the right thing, not the easy thing. This director's an absolute failure. Did you see this tweet by Alex Berenson? Many of you forget, barely two months ago, a female Secret Service agent assigned to protect Kamala Harris

had to be subdued by her colleagues because she suffered an apparent psychic break, a psychotic break on duty. Ladies and gentlemen, what does this have to do with the Secret Service director, Kim Cheadle? particular agent who was graduated despite what multiple reports have been let's just say some troubles that the director of the secret service training center the sack special agent in charge you're never going to believe it was who yes kim cheetle so now the current secret service director can't find the january 6th text lost him can't seem to find who planted cocaine in a plastic non-porous baggie at the white house was the sack of the training division when they graduated a student and uh put her near the vice president and had some kind of a meltdown and we're all supposed to celebrate kim cheeto even i missed the pipe bomb on the sweep, correct?

At the DNC, Kamala Harris, good point, Jim. This is all acceptable? Take one last break, and then I got a CBS report coming up about exactly this, that is going to cook your muffins and bake your bagels. This woman doesn't belong anywhere near a protectee or the United States Secret Service. Folks, Helix Sleep, getting a good night's sleep is really important to your overall wellness.

We don't usually do this on podcasts, but I want to play for you first a CBS clip. I want you to listen very closely who the Secret Service director is now. January 6th text, can't find him. Cocaine gate, can't find him. That Secret Service trainee who made it through, nobody wants to tell the story there. The assassination attempt, the pipe bomb,

this woman is a total failure. No C-suite would continue to hire this woman as the CEO of the chairman. Zero. Listen to this CBS report. In case you think I'm making any of this up, check this out. She would know. The 28-year veteran was on the team that evacuated Vice President Dick Cheney on 9-11, and she served on then-Vice President Biden's protective detail. He named her director in mid-2022 amid a swirl of controversy over the agency

deleting nearly all of its text messages from January 6th. The agency says that was due to a data migration. System migrations happen. But I think for a lot of Americans, it just doesn't pass the smell test, given the timing and the volume of messages deleted. Well, it's unfortunate that that would be the assumption that people would make. Our integrity is everything. And there was nothing nefarious attached to that. Their integrity has been put to the test.

Folks, even CBS News doesn't believe the story about the text. How bad does it got to be? This is a first, folks. We don't do this often a very special guest uh on the show today especially on the podcast but this is going to be a treat for you uh speaker mike johnson is joining us on the podcast sir thank you so much for spending some time we really appreciate it it's good to see you too uh especially here at the rnc um and first i i i want to just discuss the tragedy that happened this weekend something i wish i didn't have to talk to you about then i just want to i just want to get to the rnc environment in general because

it's very electric here despite what happened which is incredible but um congressional oversight obviously is your thing uh tautologically uh i wanna i had a conversation with jim jordan yesterday there are obviously going to be hearings on this you being the speaker you know you're in charge are we going to keep this focused because my fear here is that as you've seen in the past with some of these other hearings and i'm not talking about you specifically i've actually been with you at hearings when uh when when you were a member just a regular member there are we going to keep this focused and and and and question oriented and no filibustering things this is not a partisan affair at all no it's a great point dan and we're

going to do something very different here. I announced just this morning, about an hour ago, I'm going to take the reins of this thing and we're going to set up a task force, a precision kind of strike on this. It doesn't need to be the normal committee process. You know how those things get bogged down. This is really serious stuff, as you've noted. Life or death. We got to get the answers to this quickly.

And if we don't, people are going to begin to make up their own mind about things that might have been going on there. And I think that's really dangerous. Obviously, there was extraordinary lapses of security and terrible mistakes here that have been made. They need to be admitted to. We need to get accountability and we need to move forward and make sure it doesn't happen again. So setting up a task force is the way to do that. We'll have subpoena authority for this. It'll be a small group of members who have background and expertise like yours people who are special ops who understand what should have happened there and what didn't um and it'll be republican and democrat we'll move forward we'll do it quickly in a streamlined fashion we don't have reams of documents here this

is one event one finite set of facts we got to get down to the bottom of it and do it quickly uh a speaker mr speaker this is um this is a non- Speaker, Mr. Speaker, this is a nonpartisan affair. I was interviewing Tucker last night on the podcast in a primetime special. And listen, he brought up something interesting. Democrats have security, too. President Biden, his entire team. I mean, you have the NSA, National Security Director. You have a very talented team of Capitol police security agents here today. I've worked with them in the past. I went to a surveillance school with a bunch of really talented guys. We're just human beings. You've got a family too. You don't want to get hurt. I mean, are you sensing, and please give my audience a skinny on this. Are you sensing

that even the Democrats, because Jim Jordan had seemed to allude to the fact that even the Democrats seem to be, at least in the beginning of this concern, like, yeah, we can't have this. Democrats, because Jim Jordan had seemed to allude to the fact that even the Democrats seem to be, at least in the beginning of this concern, like, yeah, we can't have this like this is this is not our thing. Yes, it's a great point. I mean, this is not a partisan issue. It shouldn't be. I mean, we have to make sure that we have a Secret Service that does its job and does

it well. And every member of Congress and every obviously every president, every administration has direct interest in that. I spoke to my the Democrat leader in the House, Hakeem Jeffries, yesterday. Hakeem is a very even keeled, you know, steady minded guy. And he has the same concerns and he agrees that it needs to be bipartisan and they want to get down to the bottom of it as well. So I think that's what you'll see. I think you'll see a cooperative investigation. That's what is necessary right now. That's what the country demands and deserves.

Well, now, Speaker, I appreciated you coming on my radio show. You know, we disagreed on FISA. Everyone can go and listen to that. I don't want to relitigate that entire thing today. But from a global picture on that, are you disturbed by the fact that the FBI, again, is asking for all these resources, which many Republicans said okay fine and how do they keep missing the threats steve scalise brett kavanaugh uh now this abomination i mean what's next i mean at some point somebody's going to have to answer for this that if we're going to install the surveillance apparatus then can we add a minimum intercept at least one of these things i mean this is a really really serious threat but your colleague steve scalise i mean came within seconds of bleeding out on a baseball field the fbi has been corrupted from bad leadership it's not the field agents we always

specify and you clarify as well it's not these loyal patriotic people who are serving out in the field it's the people who are making the decisions at the top when we did do the fisa bill we added 56 key reforms jim jordan helped lead and draft and the Judiciary Committee, everybody put together to ensure that these abuses can't happen again. With regard to the surveillance, of course, the purpose of the program is in its title of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. It's surveilling known threats and known terrorists. And I can't reveal classified information right now, but I spoke last night with the director of national intelligence in that office. I've spoken to Secretary Mayorkas, who had no answers. But we have used our capabilities to uncover some plots that were against President Trump and some current figures right now.

The system does work when it's used properly. The abuses are what we have to prevent. And we put in 56 safeguards to make sure that doesn't happen if somebody uses that database to query an american or go after an american and violate their due process rights or their fourth amendment rights um they will be prosecuted they go to jail for 10 years so there's a real deterrence in the law now well we had a pretty vigorous conversation about that on the show i encourage everyone to listen again i appreciate you coming on can i ask as a personal favor and a man who worked presidential

protection for Democrats and Republicans, my sources are unimpeachable sources feeding me information from the top. It emerged last night. I put it out on my show right before you came on that that post on that roof where that attacker was and engaged with President Trump and nearly killed him was supposed to be posted up by a local counter-surveillance asset. The asset did not make it to the roof, apparently posted up on the second floor instead. Now, it's up to the Secret Service to check that. They didn't. It is ultimately their responsibility.

But the Special Operations Division surveys, Mr. Speaker, the counter-sniper survey survey which is paper and email generated and the cat survey counter assault team survey will indicate if that was opposed if that's opposed somebody's lying because then kim cheetle the secret service director who said oh we didn't put someone up there because of the slope of the roof like this is an osha violation crazy she's now lying and if and can i ask you if you get that paperwork and it shows what my sources are telling me are true um there should be a push for her to resign immediately for misleading americans i called for her resignation this morning i've seen enough already but we're after that and thanks for

digging it up the first question i asked was most obvious i don't have a background in special ops i'm a constitutional law attorney but i asked mayorkas saturday night within hours of the event one quick question the obvious one my sons were asking me, Mr. Secretary, where were the drones? Yes, that's right. Look, I had this question for you. Where was the aerial surveillance? Is that not standard practice? My wife found a drone, Mr. Speaker, for $39.99 on Amazon.

We're spending $6 trillion. We can't buy the Secret Service some darn drones. My teenage son would have volunteered. He is. I'm like, wouldn't a drone have seen somebody on a roof? he mayorkas did not know the answer to that question on saturday night now look i understand he wasn't in charge of the operation and all that but come on i mean there were serious lapses here and you don't have to have dan bongino's resume to understand that something something is amiss my wife's a web developer she's like dan right they didn't have

a drone right i i live in this community in Stewart, Florida. There were drones flying around all the time. I mean, it's just, it's unforgivable. Let me move on to a couple other things. You're here at the RNC. You're out there on the floor. We've been in here broadcasting. We're going to go to the floor for the speech on Thursday.

But have you sensed it? Like, I know they become tropes and cliched, and I hate that. But there really is a palpable energy i i didn't feel it in 2020 we had covid going on it was a vert remember the virtual thing they did oh yeah it just it was this sense of just that everything was macabre and we tried to light it up president trump gave a great speech but that's not the case i mean paul and i've been walking by the bridge and people are stopping us are excited they want to take selfies and everything and i go to a lot of events the excitement here i think people sense that this could be.

No red wave talk. You and I have had no landslide talk. Don't blow it, folks. Get out there and vote. But I think people sense that there's some real change coming here. SETH VARGOEVALE, JR.: Something is happening in America, and it is different.

It's different than at any moment that I've ever been involved in politics in my life. I'm traveling around the speaker's job when we're not in session is to go around the country and go campaign with our incumbents and the challengers that we recruited to flip the blue seats to red. So I've been north, south, east, west. I've done events in 144 cities and 31 states in the last seven months. Dan, we're seeing a demographic shift in the country. We have a record number of Hispanic and Latino voters coming to the Republican side. We have a record number of black voters, African-Americans. We have the Jewish community is so energized because they know that Joe Biden and the Democrats

abandoned Israel and they have. So you have all these dynamics going on. Then you have the debate, which was seismic, right? Then the Jack Smith, I mean, then the Jack Smith thing, then the failed assassination attempt. Then he gets up and screams fight. And the greatest, most iconic snapshot of all time. You can't, I mean, this is like, you couldn't script this. There's something providential happening here. And I've spoken to President Trump about this at great length. You know, I was reminded, you're an amateur historian like I am. You know, remember we used to talk about-

Very amateur. Very amateur. Well, you play one on TV. But I'm a believer in Jesus Christ. That's right. That I'm not an amateur. That's the main thing. But speaking of that, so our first president, George Washington,

was called the bulletproof president, right? And the famous story of the French and Indian War, when he goes through the barrage of gunfire, the ambush in the forest in 1755, he emerges. Two forces are shot out from beneath him. He takes a third one, finishes the battle. He's an army colonel. He gets off, takes off his coat. He's got four bullet holes in his vest, and he wasn't hit. So he writes to his family.

He says, the divine hand of providence spared me on this day. He had more to do clearly. So I was after Saturday night, after we knew Trump was okay, I was, I was reminded of the bulletproof George Washington story. I went back, got the history book, started reading and I went, oh my gosh, that event took place Dan, 47 miles from where Donald Trump was shot. Also in July, there in Pennsylvania, I relayed the story to the president. I said, look, no one can deny this. Our atheist friends will not be able to deny that this is a miraculous thing, that God has providentially spared you, and he clearly has something for you to do. This is a big moment in the country.

They will. I mean, they're actually making fun of us for saying things like this. Let them make fun, Dan. The people are with us. They get it. Because independent middle America sees exactly. We played an animation before. Millimeters change the entire course of American and global politics.

100%. By the way, we're in the largest stream in the world right now, 182,000 people watching. So this is a good chance to get the message out. Let me ask you one last question, and I'll let you go. You've been generous with your time. My listeners are very, very, very concerned about mail-in voter fraud. Yeah.

It's a subject that's been highlighted repeatedly by the left. I know you think I'm crazy, but go out and look the article up. A 2012 article by the New York Times, when absentee balloting was primarily Republican in the swing state of Florida, military and older folks, the New York Times was very concerned about fraud. They wrote an entire piece saying error and rejection rates are double for mail-in balloting. We're stuck with it with this election. I get it.

But if you remain the speaker and you have, say, we pick up 10 more seats, no red wave talk, it's forbidden. But say it happens and we have a good day, 10, 15, maybe more, who knows, and we get back to Senate. Can you assure the listeners that this will be one of the top priorities to do something nationally to clean up this mess which we can't do anything about state elections but federal we can clean this disaster up we've already started we passed the save act as you know two weeks ago and he's already said he said he vetoed which is a crazy dent well tell them what the save act says because it's so simple it's very simple so here's the thing for background all these illegals are coming into the country i think it's 16 million illegals that have come across since Joe Biden opened it.

Why they did it intentionally. We know that we've all talked about it. Why they want to turn them into voters. Here's the proof. So the SAVE Act says when they when all these people come into the country, the administration through the NGOs ships them all around the country, planes, trains and automobiles. Then they send the receipts and we all pay for it. Taxpayers fund this. planes, trains, and automobiles. Then they send the receipts and we all pay for it. Taxpayers fund this. When they get to the local community, the administration and people down the chain say, hey, head as soon as possible to the welfare office so you can sign up for taxpayer benefits. Well, here's the thing. When you go to do that, they also give you a form because of the motor voter registration laws in the early 90s. Do you want to register to vote? All you got to do

is check one little box that says I'm a U.S. citizen. This is the outrageous thing. Right now under federal law, the states are prohibited from requiring proof of citizenship. They can't ask. Federal courts have interpreted it. It's madness. So all they got to do is check the box. Dan, if one out of a hundred or one out of a thousand of 16 million illegals participate in the election, they can throw a congressional race, the majority in the House, and maybe the presidential in the right states. So we pass this very fundamental piece of legislation that says, yes, the states have to require proof of citizenship. Nothing remotely controversial. Good grief. And hey, check your voter rolls and make sure they haven't already enlisted,

because we know that some have. The few states that have done audits have already found it. So 198 Democrats in the House voted against that legislation. There's not a more common sense, simple piece of legislation. How many voted for four? Was it five? Five voted in favor because they're terrified they're going to lose their seats. These people, this is crazy and we're going to make it famous. We passed it out of the House. We sent it to the Senate.

We're asking everyone, all the 180,000 people who are watching and listening and those who listen later, prevail upon your Democrat senators, if you're in one of those states that they must bring the save act up for a vote schumer has to bring it up and we'll push it to joe biden's desk and make him sign it it's the only way to truly secure the election and you're relatively confident that if we can get majorities and both that we'll still need some on the senate side maybe a little help but with political pressure from the hopefully a trump white house knock on wood yeah that we can get this done because it could change the entire 100 look in the we're going to have a very aggressive first 100 days agenda for the Congress we're laying out the playbook right now because we got to we're not putting the cart before the horse can I ask you that one last thing I'm sorry I promise I'll let you go because I'm actually running out of time too I gotta do the radio show in a little bit but

this is good I don't want to phrase this the wrong way so I'm not trying to it's only this is going to all be done professionally, correct? The blueprint is already being laid out. So we're not coming in there, you know, mishmashing stuff around. This guy wants to be on TV. We have an agenda ready to rock and roll. No nonsense. No nonsense. I learned less.

I came in freshman in 2017 when Trump came to Washington. I was a freshman in Congress. We squandered the first two and a half months of that Congress because the Republican team wasn't ready to lead. They thought, everybody thought Hillary was going to be the president, so they didn't have the playbook ready. And I determined to myself and my classmates back then, man, if we're ever in charge, we're going to be prepared. Well, we didn't know that this would be the eventuality. So we're working right now, the Republicans in the Senate and the House working together on a unified agenda to be ready to roll on day one and have a very aggressive 100 days agenda. The Trump administration's dialed in on it big priorities big things we have to fix

and I told President Trump I said Mr President you could be the most consequential president of the modern era because we gotta fix everything we gotta fix everything it's a mess the agenda will drive that and ensure that we make history and we're going to be ready Mr Speaker thanks a lot for coming in I really appreciate you anytime thanks a lot for coming in. I really appreciate it. Welcome back anytime. Thanks a lot. Speaker Mike Johnson, folks. So there we go. We talked Secret Service, the debacle that happened this weekend. We talked the new agenda, the energy at the RNC. That had Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Tucker last night, Don Jr. Tonight, by the way, Guy, I almost forgot to make the quick announcement. Sorry about the quick adjustments, folks. We don't typically do a lot of interviews on the podcast, as you can tell. Thank you, Guy.

But my team is on the ball. Yeah, right. Tonight is, Paul, at 6 p.m. local, 7 p.m. Eastern. I have two great guests for you again for our primetime special. If you want to listen tonight, Anita and the McGroins spread the word. Rumble.com slash Bongino, 6 p.m. local, 7 p.m. Eastern. I have the great Jack Posobiec and Mike Davis. He is the best commentator out there on Lawfare.

He's one of the two Mikes I call him. Mike Benz on the Deep State, Mike Davis on Lawfare. It'll be about 45 minutes to an hour. We're going to split it up between these two fantastic guests so don't forget that uh it's going to be really good hey we got that tucker clip from last night because i don't want to leave without without getting this out there folks there's going to be a new narrative going forward that you're seeing kind of um a little feeler going out right now on they're going to try to cover for this michael first put up the cnn headline about the iran thing i want to put this headline up and you folks in the chat tell me how they're going to try to cover this up now okay

because it's going to be an october surprise right cnn politics oh look a convenient leak just yesterday secret service ramped up security after getting intel of the Iranian plot to assassinate Trump. No known connection to shooting. Really? This is new? The Iranian plot to assassinate Donald Trump, John Bolton and Mike Pompeo? Hey, Michael, can you pull up that DOJ press release from August of 2022 before I get to this Tucker clip? I want to show you something, folks.

That's bullshit. Not that the plot's real. The Iranians did and do want to kill Pompeo, Bolton and Trump. I'm telling you it's real. I have from sources. It's real, but it's not new. CNN broke this yesterday, I believe, for a reason. DOJ press release.

Member of Iran's IRGC charged with a plot to murder former national security advisor. Look at the date, folks. August 10th, 2022. This is not new. So why release it yesterday? Why release a plot about the Iranians wanted to kill Donald Trump? Does it have anything to do with this conversation I had with Tucker Carlson last night? Tucker seems to be on to something, which I agree with.

Maybe the distraction, the October surprise is going to be on to something which i agree with maybe the distraction the october surprise is going to be an attack on the iranians and this story was kind of the perfect precursor to do it check this out there's been an october surprise every midterm and election since 2016 um any idea about what it could be this time around i mean it could be anything from donald trump's handing ukraine to trump because he's him and don jr working on a real estate project like really when did that i mean any idea what that could be i have no idea all i know is and i didn't know this till this morning that actually it was iran that tried to kill trump the other day yeah you know i have felt for many years that the real threat to me was wrong they're always calling me racist and flooding my country with illegal aliens um they're fentanyl and yeah what's

the october surprise of course it's war probably war with iran but i still don't think and i'm totally opposed to that actually and i'm not pro-iran but i iran is irrelevant to the country that i live in which is collapsing in a lot of ways that have nothing to do with iran so don't tell me iran is the biggest problem okay or putin is the biggest problem that's not true i live here that's not true those may be problems or whatever you know you can worry about that but those are not the pressing problems and anyone who tells you they are the pressing problems is a liar a A. B, I still don't think they can cheat Biden in because it's just so obviously false. No one will ever believe in democracy again.

Biden is non-compass menace. He appears to have Parkinson's or some neurological disorder, but that's obvious, it's not even debated anymore. And Trump just got shot in the face and stood up, like pushed off the secret service to stand with blood streaming out his face and said, fight. That's the leader. That's the comatose patient.

There's no way you can do that. It's not just in America, but to the world. Not one person on the entire planet, billions of people believe that. Isn't that a convenient narrative, folks? Let's hope that my batting average, Michael, what's my batting average on conspiracy theories still a thousand let's hope i'm wrong they're gonna start a war with iran and go look they were trying to kill president trump and this is what we did we're so strong you heard it here first folks you heard it here first hey um listen i i just want to put this out there for the chat guys and ladies you're my brothers and sisters. And, you know, we speak truth to power. And if you heard our last interview on this exact topic, hey, Senator Ron Johnson over there, you know, we do that. But it's really important. We have people in the party we disagree with on the show, especially in prominent positions of power. I get it. A lot of you all and I certainly object to his position on FISA. You can listen to my whole spirited interview about that. I also object to a lot of the positions on Ukraine. But if you and I,

this is the power base. We're the news now. If we're not getting our thoughts out to these guys, then frankly, the projection of power part is useless. I hope you all understand that. It is critical that we get our thoughts and earworms in their ears. So I hope you all understand that. There's a reason I make these decisions and they're not by accident. All right, folks, thanks again so much for tuning in. Please, tonight, join us tonight, 7 p.m. Eastern, 6 p.m. local,

another hour of primetime special. The great Jack Posobiec and Mike Davis will be back here on the radio at Rumble in a little bit, rumble.com slash Bongino, in just a few minutes for another three hours. then we'll wash rinse repeat tomorrow thank you all 183 000 hey chris are you here where's chris is he around are we uh someone check streamed i think we're the biggest stream in the world again because you all because you kick ass and take names god bless you all love you see you in a little bit on the radio show thanks for tuning in
