get ready to hear the truth about america on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host
dan bongino i've got so many announcements for you today it's such a big show i um had a tough
time knowing where to start so i'm glad uh tony and i and gee went through a rundown again the
beginning of the show because wouldn't you guys agree it was like a mishmash we were all over
there like where do we start do we start with the big announcement about Rumble? I'll have
to get to that later. Do I start telling you about Robert Herr, which that's still going on right now,
the special counsel, H-U-R? Do we talk about the story I told you months ago was total bullshit
that now you know is bullshit? You know, again, don't mistake this for stupid, dopey, childish
pats on the back.
I'm a capitalist.
I'm an entrepreneur.
I want to produce a good show with good quality.
And I don't want you to think you bought a product that's a waste of your time.
So when I tell you something's fake, like I told you about Trump beat up the Secret Service agent story months ago,
now you know you're not wasting your time.
If you invested in the Rachel Maddow show and other shows over the years,
you've been wasting your time
as a lot of these stories fell apart.
Big show today.

All right, Joseph, it's a Tuesday.
Let's get this party started.
Showtime, Dano.
Joe and the guys have been busy because I was crushing them this morning with additional content because a bunch of news broke last night and this morning.
As you well know, folks, Special Counsel Robert Herr is testifying right now in front of Congress about the Joe
Biden classified documents alleged theft imbroglio scandal. I've been watching it.
I'm going to give you a full analysis of it tomorrow. However, there's not a lot of breaking
news in it. The only thing I can tell you through nearly an hour
of testimony is everything we told you was true. Joe Biden clearly lied about both the theft of
classified documents while he was a White House and a senator, and clearly lied about transmitting
classified information to an unauthorized ghostwriter who is not clear. Those are true.
Robert Herr, under oath, just said again, because he swore to this fax the first time,
that this stuff is true. So again, I'll leave you with this because I'll give you a really
thorough analysis tomorrow. I don't feel the need to be first on this because until we see the whole
thing, what's the point? You're going to get an immature analysis of a not complete data set.
Robert Herr, who I believe is part of an Obama hit job on Biden, and he has left Biden with two
choices that I see now rocketing all over social media as people pick up on mine and other analysis
of this situation. Either Biden is mentally competent and a criminal
for stealing classified documents, or as Robert Hearst said, he stole classified documents.
However, he's an old man who can't remember anything and he can't be the president. So
either he's a fit criminal or an unfit president. Fit criminal, unfit president. Fit criminal,
Fit criminal, unfit president.
Fit criminal, unfit president.
That's it.
Folks, if you can explain to me a third option Robert Herr has left him, I'd love to hear it.
There isn't.
Listen to me.
There isn't. I have not steered you wrong.
Again, I got a big announcement with Rumble, which is really important because it involves more than I am, as you know, an investor in Rumble.
It has nothing to do with that. It's coming up later. You may have kind of heard
about it on social media where it was rocketing around, but it involves a parallel economy.
But I'm going to get to that later because I got some news to take care of now that's important.
Folks, I never, ever, ever want to spin or spin for anyone or waste your time here.
I've warned you repeatedly, and I'm talking to leftists now too.
I don't like you.
You don't like me.
Okay.
I'm not trying to get you to like me here,
but I am going to tell you something factually accurate.
And I'm sorry if you're a conservative like Dan,
we're the majority of your show.
Why would you be talking to them?
Just bear with me for a second because this is critical.
And I want you conservatives that I love to death,
the P1s who
are here, almost 50,000 people five minutes in, spread this message to your friends.
You keep calling our guys conspiracy theorists, frauds, Nazis, racists, but you ever notice my
guys, Bongino, Levin, Tucker, and so on, we're six months ahead of every story
while you idiots are always proven wrong.
Who's the real conspiracy theorist?
That's eight, eight.
That didn't take long.
Donald Trump beat the shit out of some secret service agent drivers
and told them, you can listen to this guy if you'd like and others,
or you can listen to me and save the embarrassment.
You got that video,
Tony here's Cassidy Hutchinson,
who I told you was full of crap because I may know some people in this
space.
Here's she here's Cassidy Hutchinson who claims to be some big Trump
insider. I have no doubt she worked in there, but I'm not sure she's the person she's saying
she is, okay? Here's Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony about a ridiculous story we discredited
the minute it happened. Take a listen. Strong, very angry response to that.
happened. Take a listen. Very angry response to that. Tony described him as being irate.
The president said something to the effect of, I'm the effing president. Take me up to the Capitol now. To which Bobby responded, sir, we have to go back to the West Wing.
The president reached up towards the front of the vehicle to grab at the
steering wheel. Mr. Engel grabbed his arm, said, sir, you need to take your hand off the steering wheel.
We're going back to the West Wing. We're not going to the Capitol. Mr. Trump then used his free hand
to lunge towards Bobby Engel.
And when Mr. Renato had recounted this story to me, he had motioned towards his clavicles.
Why is this important? Why relitigate a dumb story? That's a fair question. I respect you enough that I'll ask it myself, even if you're not thinking it, which many of you should be.
Dan, why even waste time? The story was so dumb. Because folks, the only way to thoroughly eviscerate the anti-Trump agenda
is to expose it for what it is consistently and over and over. And that is fake.
You got to understand in the marketing space, you're citing your education, you're probably
a jerk off, I get it. However, I didn't learn a ton in business school. You do, but I mean, not a lot of practical stuff, but some of the stuff you take
away, SWOT analysis, net present value analysis, lives with you. And one of the things you learn
in marketing is you have to engage in repeated trials and efforts to get something to stick.
Why people need your product. Ladies and gentlemen, politics is no different.
stick. Why people need your product. Ladies and gentlemen, politics is no different.
We have to repeatedly expose these stories over and over about Trump. Every single one of these scandals has been fake. Trump stole an election with Putin. Fake. The Nikki Haley drapes story.
Fake. The Mike Flynn Russian ambassador story. Fake. The Trump quid pro quo impeachment phone call, fake.
They're all fake.
I told you with a Bongino rule that whenever you hear a ridiculous anti-Trump story that
Donald Trump lunged at a Secret Service agent, when I told you that's not even how the cars
are set up to grab the steering wheel, I said, this is the dumbest effing story I've ever heard in my life.
You have to be a moron to believe this.
Yet the stupid ass left.
Sorry, Tony, can you just go out?
I want to keep put the montage up for a second.
I'm sorry.
Poor guy.
I remember you said that.
Thank you, Joe.
Yeah, I remember.
Here's the montage.
Thank you, Tony.
Look at all these.
Look at all these dumb mother who believe this shit.
NPR,
CNBC,
the Hill,
Trump lunged at security detail.
Folks,
it was,
it's not even physically possible.
NBC,
CNN.
Holy shit.
You know how much time people wasted on this stupid freaking story?
Here's another dipshit, Liz Cheney, one of the dumbest people you've ever seen.
Liz Cheney talking about Cassidy Hutchinson who fabricated this story or whatever she's doing here,
passing on a story she says someone else told her. The story's bullshit. How Cassidy Hutchinson arrived at that, I have no idea.
I don't know her.
Cassidy Hutchinson's bravery and patriotism were awesome to behold.
I mean, has Liz Cheney been right on anything?
What did she, didn't she, like, as a sitting congresswoman,
lose by 60 points or something in her race?
What am I talking about? Here's the New York Times of all
people finally forced to acknowledge that the story, ladies and gentlemen, is bullshit.
The Secret Service agent in the actual car at the time, quote, I did not see him reach,
the Secret Service driver told investigators to the house panel. He never grabbed the steering
wheel. I didn't see him, you know,
lunge to try to get into the front seat at all.
You know, what stood out was the irritation in his voice
more than the physical presence.
I'm done.
Folks, I'm sorry.
Again, to the 80,000 people now here,
this is not about...
I don't want to keep going into this story
because my frustration's coming off them.
I'm with you.
You're with me.
We get it.
I just, it's just stupid.
This is just so dumb that we've, how many times are these people going to fall willingly for the same bullshit stories?
It just never stops.
Let's get to some more important stuff because there is a lot going on today. A lot. We got her, we got an election, we got inflation numbers that
came out hot today. I want to get to that. So let me move on. I got a lot of material to get to.
Finally, someone else is saying it. If you're a listener to this show,
Joe and I have been here a long time, nine years.
I got Guy and Tony with me now.
I would play more clips of us talking about this years ago, but that would be kind of
lame because it would be wasting time.
If you're a listener, you know I've been warning you about the dangerous effects of
illegal immigration for presidential elections.
Even if illegals cannot vote, they are counted in the census,
which means liberal states get more congressional representation because the House of Representatives
for the dumb ass liberals out there, they know this, is based on the number of people
living in your state. People, not citizens. This is why Democrats love illegal immigration.
They get more congressmen and women, and therefore they get more electoral college votes in the
presidential election, which determines who the president is because who first got to get to 270
wins. First pass the poll, man. That's the way it rolls. We have been talking about this for years.
First pass the poll, man.
That's the way it rolls.
We have been talking about this for years.
Everyone else was afraid.
Go back and look outside of Laura Ingraham and Levin and maybe a couple others.
Almost nobody was talking about this.
Why?
Because they were afraid of being accused of what?
Replacement theory.
And I always said to people, why are you afraid of that? The Democrats talk about it all the time.
It's their actual theory. Don't be a wuss bag. The Democrats want to steal presidential elections
forever and illegal immigration is the key. Now, all of a sudden, we've had an awakening.
I will say this, hat tip to Senator Ted Cruz, who's been on this topic for a long time,
about how population growth via illegals will help them steal national elections.
This is why libs love illegal immigration.
Hat tip Maria Bartiromo and Tennessee Senator Bill Hagerty for bringing up a bill finally to expose the Democrats.
This is a simple bill.
Democrats. It's a simple bill. Watch what happens when the Republicans bring up a bill to stop illegals from being counted in the census for the purposes of electoral college votes and the House
of Representatives. The Democrats went nuts. Why? Because this is their only path to replacing
all the voters they lost in the middle class. Something they talk about all the time, by the
way, the Democrats.
Listen to this. It's just extraordinary that you can't even get your amendment through.
It's amazing. It's amazing. But again, Maria, I think that this proves the motive behind the crime on our border. They want these illegal migrants in here to create more electoral power
for them in their blue states. They're basically creating sanctuary cities to be a magnet so these
people will disproportionately flow to these blue states. They're shipping them there
as rapidly as they can. Since Joe Biden came into office, the estimates are as high as 10 million
people that have come in here. That would be 13 extra congressional districts if you allocated
them the right way. This is a tremendous amount of power that the Democrats are bringing in.
They're giving their voters, the blue state voters, disproportionately more power than they are giving my voters in Tennessee.
Folks, this is why everything the Democrats do,
everything they do is purposeful.
None of this is an accident.
People playing stupid in the Democrat Party,
acting like the border crisis is some glitch and not a feature.
Have the process totally backwards.
A feature of being a modern Democrat is the destruction of America.
Elections, the economy, the health care system, the education system, the regulatory infrastructure, faith in government, the FBI, the military.
That is a feature of the modern Democrat Party.
Everything they're doing, they're doing on purpose.
They are trying to destroy election integrity.
They are trying to destroy faith in elections.
They cannot win the working class voters over anymore.
It has nothing to do with race.
The Democrats are trying to scare you with the race argument. The race argument has nothing to do with race. The Democrats are trying to scare you with the race argument.
The race argument has nothing to do with it.
Who was it who said, I was watching Ingram last night.
I think it was Victor, yes, it was Victor Davis Hanson,
who brilliantly said, if Hispanics start voting 50 to 60%,
remember this, remember this, please. If Hispanics voters start voting 50 to 60%,
Joe, flag it, please, for Republicans. That border will be closed tomorrow.
Flag it.
Thank you. Oh, and by the way, can you unflag the Cassidy Hutchinson Secret Service thing?
I got to start paring down the list.
I mean, really, folks, we're totally out of conspiracy theories.
We're totally out of them because they're all coming true.
Watch.
If Hispanic voters start voting Republican, the Democrats will want to shut the border down tomorrow.
It has nothing to do with race.
It's electoral power.
Folks, big news too out of the RNC.
Laura Trump over at the RNC.
Mass firings yesterday.
Even Politico reported on it.
Listen, this is what I tell you, man.
I know whenever we get down sometimes
I'm not quitting. I'm never quitting. This isn't a quit show. You want to quit? That's bullshit.
This isn't the show. We got a lot of obstacles ahead of us, but we got a freaking country to
save. We are the leaders we've been waiting for. As my friend Ginny tells me all the time,
no more bullshit. This is our country to save. There's nowhere else to go. I'm not going to
Canada. I'm not going to Mexico. I'm not going anywhere else. This is our country to save. There's nowhere else to go. I'm not going to Canada. I'm not going to Mexico. I'm not going anywhere else. This is our country to save and there's
no quitting. The RNC sucks. Good. Let's change it. The voting process sucks. It does. Let's change it.
Laura Trump got in there. Politico, bloodbath at RNC. Trump team slashes the staff at the committee.
Good. Now maybe we'll have an RNC that works to advance Republican and conservative values.
I know I'll be keeping my eyes on it now that we got some good people in charge.
I mean, full disclosure, I know Laura Trump well.
The Laura Trump you see on TV, I'm not name dropping.
Who gives a shit?
Who cares?
I'm telling you this because it matters.
It's the exact same person
she is at a private dinner table with friends. She is no different. She believes in what she
says. I have known Laura Trump since she was a television reporter years ago. I had her in my
phone under a different last name. She is the real deal and a genuinely good and decent person.
But I'm going to tell you right now, don't toy with her. A lot of people got pink slips. Good.
We're taking the party back. Good things are happening. You got senators now on the record
acknowledging this is a power play at the border that's intentional. You've got even the New York Times forced to expose another bullshit Trump story.
You got Robert Hurtaday putting Biden in a classic dilemma.
Dilemma.
He's either a fit criminal or an unfit president.
That's it.
The day's just started.
This is already a great day.
Sorry, I'm getting a little too excited all right
let me take let me take a break and i want to tell you what's really going on here why the change in
the democrats the democrats from what a party that at least pretended to be sane to a party
that's completely lost it it has everything to do with working class voters of all races, creeds, colors, and national origins leaving
the Democrats. They know, they know they can't, they just cannot replace working class voters.
They can't do it with citizens in the United States. They can't do it.
They can't do it. And they talk about it all the time.
All right. Let me take a quick break. Hey, for 10 years,

Guy's a big guy.
Who was the guy who helped you out?
Milton. Milton's a biggie. Who was the guy who helped you out? Milton.
Milton's a superstar.
So what's really going on here?
Why this massive change with the Democrats?
Folks, I've never been a Democrat.
I've never voted Democrat my entire life.
And I promise you, I never will.
I would rather jump off a bridge.
I will not vote Democrat.
I'm will. I would rather jump off a bridge. I would not vote Democrat. I'm sorry.
Unless Democrats started to espouse Republican values and the parties flip, which does happen throughout history, there is zero chance I would ever vote for a Democrat. However, I'm going to
tell you something that's fair and objective because I owe you the news. You come here for
truth and I've always given it to you. And I think I've proven that we got a track record proven again today, but the Democrats were not always crazy
on immigration. They, I never believed in a, in a path to citizenship amnesty because I believe
rewarding illegal lawbreaking incentivizes more. I listen, I I'm, I'm a Christian. Okay. I met my
faith matters to me and I am all about helping people. However, I'm a Christian, okay? My faith matters to me, and I am all about helping people.
However, I'm not about helping people at the expense of other people while incentivizing
more lawbreaking, and that's what amnesty is. However, the Democrats' other positions on
immigration, we need to control our border, we need to deport people here illegally,
have not always been insane.
I'm going to play some evidence for you right here.
Hat tip Mays Moore, by the way, is a great account to follow.
Very good clips on there.
Why the change?
Here are the receipts to back this up.
Here is Nancy Pelosi.
You're probably thinking, you're thinking right now, you're kidding, right?
No, I'm not.
I'm going to play her own words in 2005. I swear when I'm this is not edited. This is not this is legit.
Yeah. You're going to listen to this and think to yourself, this is a modern day kind of weak knee Wall Street Journal op ed Republican talking here.
They were not always crazy on this topic. Here, listen to yourself.
talking here. They were not always crazy on this topic. Here, listen to yourself.
Broken borders. That's an oxymoron, something we can't tolerate. Borders of other nature, our definition as a nation and our protection as a country. Broken borders,
that doesn't, they don't exist. We can't tolerate them. So let's say from the start
that we all in this body, and I know I can speak very firmly for the Democrats, support strong
border control. And it must be part and the first part of any comprehensive immigration reform.
And the first part of any comprehensive immigration reform we have is our obligation as elected officials to keep the American people safe.
And our borders are our first line of defense, I'm trying to make the point to you that the Democrat Party once relied on working class voters as their base and working class voters don't like the idea that other people can come in illegally, it's all about power. That's why they used to say,
so what was the change? The Democrats got so crazy with CRT, tax hikes, all this gender nonsense
that they realized they could no longer rely on working class voters at all.
So now they need illegal vote representation, even if they can't vote, but representation
to win elections.
They don't have another choice. So now they're all in on an open border. Here's another one.
Here's 2009. It's not even that long ago. Here's Barack Obama in 2009 talking about immigration.
This was a totally different party a decade ago, two decades ago. Listen to yourself.
This is not going to be a free ride.
It's not going to be some instant amnesty.
What's going to happen is
you are going to pay a significant fine.
You are going to learn English.
You are going to,
you are going to go to the back of the line
so that you don't get ahead of somebody
who was in Mexico City applying legally.
But after you've done these things over a certain period of time, you can earn your citizenship.
So that it's not something that is guaranteed or automatic.
You've got to earn it.
But over time, you give people an opportunity now it only
works though if you do all the pieces i i think the american people they appreciate and believe
in immigration but they can't have a situation where you just have half a million people pouring
over the border without any kind of mechanism to control it. This shows you, I mean, is this crazy?
This is like, right?
They sound like weak-kneed Republicans do now.
This shows you how the party's totally abandoned sanity.
Why?
Folks, they talk about it all the time.
They have to replace lost voters with someone.
So they are praying that illegal voters in the country will either become through amnesty citizens and vote for them,
or at a minimum, they'll be used in population representative counts to build electoral college clout and build up new congressional districts.
How do I know they've talked about
it all the time? Because it's cliche now. My words, not mine. Time magazine. Time magazine,
folks. No bastion of right wing values. Are demographics destiny? Maybe not, new Pew numbers
suggest. Quote, it's becoming something of a cliche in Washington for Democrat strategists to assert that demographics are destiny.
Keep this up.
This is their words, bro.
It's not mine.
What they mean is that the diversifying electorate and the shrinking role of white voters will render Republicans incapable of sustaining power for much longer.
They even write books about it.
Carville wrote a book predicting as much.
40 more years.
How Democrats will rule the next generation remains a fantastic, if flawed, reading of America's trajectory.
They write books about it.
Cliche.
Meaning they say it a lot.
Because it's true. I got to tell you, man,
this really bothers me. This bothers me because this show, and I'm not the only one. Believe me,
I'm not. There are a good lot of conservative content creators out there who've been warning
about this for a while, but we've been one of the loudest voices. They're afraid to speak about things in reality. The reason the Democrats call you a racist for
pointing out their replacement theory is because they don't want you to talk about their theory.
Why? Because they're trying to hide it. Why would you be a sucker and fall in that trap?
Why would you be a sucker and fall in that trap?
Folks, whether you're in danger or not, by the way,
through this demographics, destiny, open border invasion going on,
they don't care.
I'm going to show you a tweet by Bill Malugian next,
and then how the media, they're not obsessed with your safety.
The media's obsessed with covering this whole thing up.
Folks, this has nothing to do with race.
It never has.
The Democrats are suggesting that to pollute the argument,
to get you to shut up.
Yeah, leave that there.
All right, let me get to the spots.
I'm going to take a quick break,
and I'm going to show you what happened, a tweet by Bill Maluj,
and show you how much danger you're really in. Stay tuned. Folks, you know, I'm always on the lookout for good biohacks. I love them. And especially immune strength.

I have to acknowledge to a lot of people often, and I wish I didn't, that this show is not for
everyone. I'm not happy about that. I don't want to lose anybody, but I can I didn't, that this show is not for everyone. I'm not happy about that.
I don't want to lose anybody.
But I can't be my, those stupid words like authentic self or whatever,
whatever the hell that is.
That sounds like a liberal thing.
But I can't be who I am and appeal to everyone because I'm not for everyone.
Why do I get mad?
Well, I get mad because, you know, my wife's Colombian.
I decided to come to the country the right way and add to it and went to college and graduated and became a VP at a rather large company where she got into the tech field.
And then I see stories like this by Bill Malugin, who's a great reporter at Fox on Twitter.
A Colombian man was caught by the Border Patrol crossing in Arizona in August of 2022.
Tony, by my count, that's almost two years ago.
Tony's fact checking says that's accurate. He was released into the US with a future court date. The very next month,
he was arrested by police in Massachusetts for indecent assault and battery and was convicted.
Boston-based ICE agents arrested this sex offender near his home in Boston last month
as part of a nationwide effort to target non-citizens with sexual offenses. It's yet another example of someone being victimized by an illegal alien
who was released into the United States. I told you a while ago, I'm going to tell you again,
and we're not wrong. You are going to see these stories now every single day. The difference,
the United States citizens commit crime. Of course they do. Citizens of every country
commit crime. It's a worldwide problem.
However, those people are not supposed to be here.
Is this hard to understand?
You think the media gives a damn, by the way, about your safety?
You, my friend, are wrong.
You have the lead suspect in the Lake and Riley bludgeoning murder. The lead suspect is an illegal immigrant from Venezuela. The media does not care about this woman at all. All they care about is that President Biden in the State of the Union called this person illegal, to which they apologized and then tried to unapologize for an apology and said it was a non-apology if you're confused it gets more confusing in a minute but watch this active
newsbusters watch this quick media supercut here's the media more concerned about the language we use
for an illegal suspected of murder than the actual murder itself take a look the president is walking
back a controversial term he used during his State of the Union remarks.
Biden used the word, quote, illegal.
He used the term illegal.
He used the word illegal.
He used the word illegal.
He used the word illegals to describe people.
He did use a word that did bother people.
Immigration advocates don't want to hear him use the word illegal.
Do you regret using the word illegal to describe immigrants last night, sir? I kind of jumped as well when I heard that word. We normally don't
use that word because people are not illegal. To be clear, no human being is illegal. Congressman
Chuy Garcia saying he was extremely disappointed to hear the president use that word illegal.
Joaquin Castro has said like this, using that word and illegal dehumanizing is problematic.
What did you make of that? Well, that's probably true. He probably should have used a different
word. Like Joe Biden's ad libs in the past, this one kind of got him in some trouble,
particularly with Democrats who don't use the word illegal, call undocumented workers.
Saying to the broad Democratic base, I hear you, I hear your concern,
and I shouldn't use that word is a smart thing to do.
Yesterday, Biden attempted to rectify this by apologizing for using that word to describe
an undocumented immigrant. You use the word illegal. So you regret using that word? Yes.
Why did I stop that cut there? Joe, you can attest, right, that that cut actually goes
longer. Why do you guys think I stopped it there with Biden at the end telling MSNBC he regrets using the word illegal? Regret would be what would be
some kind of an apology, right? An apology, a retraction for prior conduct. Folks, again,
stupid ass liberals tune out. I'm talking to normal people now who are not freaking crazy.
We're talking in plain English, not gee-zhow-zo pronouns,
not an apple is an orange is a banana is all. We're talking to normal people. Liberals,
tune out. I don't have time for morons right now. To a normal person, expressing regret for
a prior action is the verbal equivalent of an apology, correct? I am sorry. I regret what I just did. Every folks chatsters
and I'm going to look at the chat. Does anybody in the chat disagree? Do you, Tony, you speak
English, correct? Guy, is your English okay? It's okay. Guy, would you say regretting a prior
action is the equivalent of an apology. Yeah.
This guy's got to deliberate about everything.
He goes, ah.
You can tell he's actually deliberating.
He's actually deliberating about this.
Let me say, if Tony plays the wrong cut after the show, Joe, he goes,
Dan, thank you, chatsters, by the way.
I appreciate this.
I appreciate all your feedback.
No, no.
Of course, there's a few F no's in there.
If Tony goes, Dan, I really regret doing that.
That's an apology.
Yes.
Now, of course, because Biden realizes that sane American working class voters of all races are like, wait, Biden's apologizing to a suspected murderer for calling him illegal when he was in
fact in the country illegally. I want you to listen to this walk back yesterday by the White
House press flack. What is that? Olivia something? She's like, Olivia Dalton. Thank you. Where she's
like, oh no, regret. We used a different word. It wasn't an apology.
If you're confused, I give up. I'm not even going to try to explain this, folks.
But listen yourself. President Biden apologized for calling Lake and Riley's killer an illegal.
It's just does he feel like he needs to apologize to illegal immigrants for calling them what they are?
Like he needs to apologize to illegal immigrants for calling them what they are?
Do you think the term illegal?
First of all, I want to be really clear about something.
The president absolutely did not apologize.
There was no apology anywhere in that conversation.
He did not apologize.
He used a different word.
I think what we should be really clear about is the facts.
We are really clear on the facts. Do you regret using those words?
Yes.
Folks, again, I give up on these people.
Biden's team, they're full of morons.
I told you how he should have answered this thing.
He should have said, listen, we're talking about a suspected murder.
I'm not getting into word games, period.
End of story.
But because Biden is a cognitively impaired frontal lobe dementia,
story, but because Biden is a cognitively impaired frontal lobe dementia, sociopathic,
plagiarizing, pathological, lying, kid-sniffing woman feeler, Biden can't do anything right.
Everything Biden touches, he destroys. That's why inflation came in hot and heavy. That's why the economy's a mess. Labor force participation's a mess. That's why these Green New Deal,
inflation reduction, Chips
Act, all this crap has fallen apart.
Did you see the story about the Chips
Act? These chip fabricators,
the fabs, they can't even build them
because there's Biden requirements for
DEI and child care
and like, we can't do all this stuff.
Everything this guy touches
turns to,
you fill in the blanks.
Folks, they have mastered the abuse of language too.
Do you express regret over it?
Yes, I do.
But that wasn't an apology.
Do you understand how sick the American people are?
I hear people talk about the American people,
but I'm basing it on actual polling and data and facts and receipts.
Do you know how sick they are of this?
There's a reason Joe Biden is historically unpopular
and everybody thinks he's a loser.
Because he is.
And they can't stop weaponizing the language.
Here, look at his Breitbart article.
Majority of Democrats oppose the
certification of the 2024 election if Donald Trump wins. I thought, Wendell Husebo, Breitbart.
Tony, I was told that was an insurrection. I mean, folks, I was told it was an insurrection, by the way, by their own definition.
The left told us that was an insurrection.
Do you see how full of shit these people are?
We legitimately oppose certification of an election with known problems.
Mass mail-in balloting acknowledged by the New York Times itself in a 2012 article that has trouble with rejection rates and fraud.
A Pennsylvania ruling that changed the rules of the election unconstitutionally in the middle of the game.
The intelligence community interfering in the election again with a fake nonsense story about Hunter's laptop and Russians.
We had legitimate concerns.
The Democrats have decided the election's illegitimate now
and not a single vote has been cast in the general election yet.
We haven't even firmed up the nomination, at least delegates wise.
Tell me again what party's full of shit.
Again, I'm embarrassed for you.
If you're a Democrat,
I am,
I am because I'm sorry,
but it really speaks to your own lack of self-awareness and intelligence.
And it's true.
Nothing.
These people tell you is ever true.
And you keep like a thirsty dog.
You're like this.
Yeah.
Oh, I guess. Like this. Like this.
Lie juice.
Thirsty dogs.
I actually was there.
You like stupid, thirsty dogs?
Stupid, not dogs.
I love dogs.
Like a stupid dog.
I love dogs.
Dogs are smarter than, like a stupid dog.
Morons.
Everything they tell you is fake and you keep coming back for more because you're thirsty for stupid.
Why are you so dumb?
Why are you so stupid all the time?
What if they told you that's true?
Freaking idiots.
By the way, I just want to play this for you again.
I thought this was, I thought challenging elections was unethical.
I thought we were talking, I thought challenging elections was an insurrection.
So I decided to play this again for like the 10th time for in case there are some morons in the audience who can't figure it out. Here's the Democrats challenging every single
election they lost in like the last 20 years. But again, tell me how it's an insurrection.
Check this out. One thing that Trump is fearful of when it comes to his being
president is that finally we will see how illegitimate his victory actually was. I have
an objection. I object to the 15 votes from the state of North Carolina. I object because people
are horrified. He's an illegitimate president. Do you believe Trump is illegitimate president?
What I believe is that there's no question that the outcome of this election was affected
by the Russian interference. There absolutely is a cloud of illegitimacy.
So that legitimacy is in question. Yes. So that was a very tainted election.
Folks, nothing they tell you is true. They're full of shit. I'm not telling you Republicans
are the solution to your problems. We got our own mess. We've contributed to the
debt problem. A lot of states have been weak on school choice and Republican values. I get it.
I'm simply telling you the cause of all your problems are Democrats. And whereas Republicans
lie about some stuff, granted, the Democrats lie to you about everything. There is nothing they tell you that's
true. I always bring receipts, folks. What about Biden's budget math? Biden said he's this huge
debt and deficit cutter. So Biden gave a State of the Union speech where he pretended he's somehow
this fiscally responsible guy limiting government spending. he's doing no such thing. How bad does
it have to be, Joe? How bad does it have to be when Axios is calling you out on this bullshit?
Do you have any idea how bad it is? Axios. They're like to the left of Lenin. Here,
Biden's budget shows the limits of taxing rich Americans. Look at these numbers. Look at this. The 6.1%
of GDP deficit for 2025, meaning the amount of money we're spending, is wider than the US ran
in any year between 1962 and 2019. This is Axios citing the CBO. The 3.9% deficit as a share of GDP,
The 3.9% deficit as a share of GDP, that budget that Pencil's in for 2034, is higher than it was in any year from 93 to 2007, a period that included a recession and wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
This guy's spending more money than anyone has ever spent in modern human history. And he's running on the state of the union where he gave a campaign speech.
Like he's some kind of big government fiscal hawk.
Are you kidding me?
Is this a joke?
Everything they tell you is bullshit.
What about Biden saying they got inflation under control?
Oh, look, the inflation numbers, as I told you, popped again.
I'm going to skip ahead, Tony.
Can we go to Rick Santelli on CNBC?
The inflation, we'll use the other stuff tomorrow.
What they're telling you about Israel and Hamas is fake too.
I'll get to that part tomorrow.
Everything they tell you is fake.
I told you, Joe, the economics, we love it on the show.
I know Joe likes it.
I like to do it.
I warned you a while ago.
Inflation is not under control.
You heard me say it.
You've heard me say it often.
You were never wasting your time here.
How did I know that?
Because we're $30-plus trillion in debt.
Where did you think the money was going to go?
There was no way we were going to control inflation with a couple of months of elevated interest rates.
I told you it was going to creep back up.
Here's Rick Santelli this morning with the numbers that pop just today.
Take a listen.
Our February read on the Consumer Price Index headline number expected to be up four-tenths of a percent is up four-tenths of a percent.
four tenths of a percent now if we look at the most recent lower number in this series we had 0.3 in january and we had 2.2 in november and december so this is now a firming issue as we've
had back-to-back reads uh excuse me we had up four tenths now x food and Energy also up four-tenths, one-tenth hotter.
So we have back-to-back on headline and core up four-tenths of a percent.
Now, four-tenths equals the look we had last month on core.
And the most recent lower number was October.
That was up two-tenths.
That happened to have been the lowest since Feb of 21.
So we're firming here.
Now, the year-over- over year numbers also hotter than expected. 3.2 on headline year over year. That's 3.2. That will be the highest since Dec
when it was 3.4. January remains at 3.1. If we look at year over year core, 3.8. Now this is
interesting. This is one tenth hotter than we were expecting.
Folks, I told you it was going to go back up. Why? Why? Once supply chains, which we did have
a supply chain crisis, the Biden team, it's one of the few things they're not lying about. What
they're lying about is attributing the inflation crisis exclusively to that. Like anything else
in a dynamic economy,
if you get supply constraints,
you're going to get a shortage of supply
and you're going to get prices that go up
as product availability goes down
and people start bidding up the price.
But the supply chain problem is cleaned up in most sectors
and inflation is still going up
because we printed $30 trillion.
This isn't hard.
And a problem with inflation going up and never, ever going down and no deflation is it piles onto itself. Here's Gary Cohen explaining this to a liberal media hack who finally gets it for the
first time. Gary's like, listen, man, you understand this
is cumulative and keeps adding up. This is why people are pissed off. Here, listen to this.
The president is tapping into at least a perception that wealthy people have far more
of an advantage and that corporations are taking advantage of the little guy. I mean,
he went down to the 10% fewer Snickers in the bag analogy in his speech, basically saying you're getting ripped off. So what do you make of
that idea, though, and the explanation he's trying to make for why people are experiencing inflation,
even though the rate is coming down? Well, let's talk about inflation for a minute,
because I think it's a really important concept for everyone to understand.
Let's talk about inflation for a minute, because I think it's a really important concept for everyone to understand.
Inflation has a compounding effect, meaning as you look at inflation year over year, you're adding up those numbers.
You're not starting at a zero every year. So if we had 6% inflation last year, 7% inflation, and now we have 4% inflation, that's 10% inflation.
4% inflation, that's 10% inflation. So if you take a basket of groceries at the beginning of 2020,
just a simple basic basket that cost $100, it costs well over $125 today. Because those 4% one year and 7% one year and 7% the next year, they add up, they're cumulative. So there's a
huge cumulative effect inflation. Thank you. Thank you, Gary Cohen,
for explaining basic math to the liberal media.
If a price goes up 7% and then 3%, inflation didn't go down. The rate of change went down.
The prices are still going up. All right. I said we had a big announcement. Folks,
this is important and I'm glad you're here to see it. I'd love to see your feedback,
especially on Rumble. Folks, this is really, really, really critical that you and I and all of us together build
out a parallel economy away from liberal nuts.
Now, you can get your ass kicked and sit back and take it, or you can get boycotted into
the vapor zone and have AWS, Amazon, Google, and everyone attack you, and you can fight
back.
I've chosen to fight back.
I was involved early on with Parler. Almost nobody knows the real story there, folks. I've
heard it characterized 25 different ways and they're all wrong. However, CNBC covered this
a while ago when I was involved with Parler early, which was the first real credible alternative
that had blown into the market to microblog Twitter,
it was attacked by everyone because they want to control the information flow.
So Amazon has a company called Amazon Web Services. Why Parler was on AWS, that's a whole
long story. It's not something I agreed with. However, it was. And Amazon screwed Parler over and basically
wiped them off their servers. What did that do? That effectively destroyed the website.
Amazon AWS Web Services, if you are hosting your website with Amazon AWS, Amazon Web Services,
or any other left-wing platform, you are running a very sincere, real risk of getting screwed over
and wiped off the internet. How do I know? Because it happened to Parler when I was an investor
there. I was not a manager. I wasn't in on the internal deliberations there. I was just an
investor there. However, my equity and a lot of it got screwed because of these idiots at Amazon.
A mistake never to be made again, but I learned something from it.
But you never made mistakes. Everybody makes mistakes. Are you going to learn or not?
Thankfully, I got involved with a different company, Rumble, where you're watching this show now, where we made a huge announcement yesterday and this morning.
Fox Business picked it up with the exclusive.
Rumble makes a major announcement in an effort to combat censorship, ensuring free and open Internet.
Ladies and gentlemen, I want to welcome you to Rumble Cloud, and I sincerely hope you'll consider us.
It's rumble.cloud.
The website looks like this.
Rumble.cloud is the website.
I hope you will strongly consider moving your website from these crazy lunatics that'll
wipe you off the internet to us right here.
I'm an investor in Rumble. As you know, I've said it
many times, but folks, this is how it gets done. Get your banking out of liberal banks, get your
website off of crazy Amazon AWS. By the way, I talk to people all the time. You have no idea how
many people are moving. They are all sick of this bullshit. If Amazon just wouldn't have done any of
that, this cloud business would
not have bifurcated into a parallel economy, but they had to get involved in politics.
And now we're fighting back. It's rumble.cloud, rumble.cloud. I strongly, strongly recommend
you sign up and move over there. I am an investor there. I am a capitalist. Let me be clear. I make zero apologies for that whatsoever.
You mess with me.
You rip down websites I invest in.
I'm going to help build something else.
And that's what Chris Pavlovsky, the CEO of Rumble, did.
We also did something else this morning.
You know TikTok, right?
Which is owned by the Chinese Communist Party.
Well, listen, TikTok has become embedded in American culture. It's going to be really hard
to get rid of. And I am not a, I'm a free speech guy. I want to be clear on that. You don't like
it, don't download the app. However, TikTok should not be controlled in any way by the Chinese
Communist Party at all. So if TikTok does wind up for sale, we should buy it over at Rumble. Rumble decided the same thing.
We have the servers. We have the video capability. We've got everything.
We should be part of a team that'll do it. Rumble Video, an offer for TikTok from Chris Pavlovsky.
This just popped this morning.
He said, listen, we'll buy it.
We're not going to work with the Chinese Communist Party,
but we'll take it off your hands and take care of it.
Who better than us?
We've got our own servers and everything.
This is what it looks like when you change the culture
instead of just whining about it.
You got to do stuff, folks.
We got to do stuff. Talk is cheap. We got to do stuff. The do matters.
Play it to one last thing. Thank you. But rumble.cloud, by the way, folks, please. It's time.
The Biden beclowning continues. Tony, that last video about the predecessor thing. Again, you got this Robert Herr testimony today. I'm going to have extensive coverage of it tomorrow. Video, audio, all of it. However, folks, he's put him in a real box. He is either a fit for the presidency criminal who remembered he stole these documents or he's mentally unfit and therefore can't be president. Robert Herr put him
in a corner. And I think it's clear as day that the second option is the real one. Biden is mentally
unfit to be president and probably doesn't remember anything about classified documents
because he barely remembers his own name or who his predecessor was. How do I know that? Just listen to him yourself.
Not long ago, my buddy John McCain passed away. My predecessor friend, that's how he ended his career. It's his predecessor? John McCain was the president? Do you remember that, Tony?
He says, I do. He says, you know.
He's naked, isn't he?
President McCain.
He's like, no.
He didn't make it, did he?
No.
No, I don't think he made it either.
Well, no, but you do remember him,
the senator from Delaware, right?
John McCain. He was the predecessor.
I didn't even know he was there.
When did he do that?
Joe,
do you remember him being the vice president
of John McCain?
Oh, yeah. No.
What did he do?
He's the senator from Arizona.
We're all going Joe Biden.
Nobody remembers this guy.
How was he your predecessor?
Where?
Where was he your predecessor?
The answer is nowhere.
Folks, Robert Herr has this guy in a box.
I'm not celebrating Robert Herr at all.
I think he's a deep state guy.
However, this was clearly an Obama-directed
hit job. Whether it was done with a wink and a nod or not, they've got him in a real corner right
now. More coverage of that tomorrow. Rumble Cloud, proud to be a part of it with you. Thank you for
