Producer Joe, how are you today? Hey, Daddy-O, I'm doing good, man. Thankful Thursday. Thankful that I'm here. I know you were very upset listening to that Andrew Cuomo segment as you prepped it for the show. I'm not going to tell

you what I said on the air. No, no. Yeah, I know. Yes, please. We'll be thrown off the air. Yes, we will. But I'll leave it at Joe was pretty fired up. All right. Today's show brought to you by buddies at Parler. Listen, if there isn't enough reason to dump Twitter and switch to Parler, here's another. Right now, Twitter is removing content they deem a denial of global or local health authority recommendations, descriptions of ineffective treatment or prevention methods, even if it's made in jest, denial of established scientific facts from global and local health authorities, statements such as ignore news about COVID-19.

It's just an attempt to destroy capitalism by crashing the stock market and more. They'll use that to wipe you off Twitter. Twitter's the worst. The worst. While some of these rules might seem reasonable, shutting down opinions you don't like is not only un-American, it might prevent legitimate questions from being asked. Twitter doesn't want legitimate questions

being asked. Parler is the news and free speech app. They're better than Twitter. That won't silence your opinion or violate your privacy. Here's mine right there. See it on my phone. I had it long before they were a sponsor.

There's my Parler, right? I'm at D. Bongino on Parler. They won't shut you down. Simply download the Parler, P-A-R-L-E-R app. Create your account, post, share, and speak freely. Fre freely for once. But I have to be worried about being shut down by the tech tyrants at Twitter. Go to Parler.com, P-A-R-L-E-R.com, or visit the app store today.

Make sure to invite your liberal friends too. I'm on Parler and you can follow me. I am at D. Bongino. That's P-A-R-L-E-R.com or find Parler in the App Store. Parler.com, Parler.com, or go to Parler in the App Store. Download it today and get rid of the tech tyrants at Twitter. All right, Producer Joe, let's go. And away we go. Let's start. Yes, we do. Let's start off today with the

hapless Andrew Cuomo, who, ladies and gentlemen, I don't, you know, use the term lightly. I'm trying to be somewhat nice here once in a while in the midst of this crisis, but I'm tired of the term lightly. I'm trying to be somewhat nice here once in a while in the midst of this crisis, but I'm tired of the misinformation, the disinformation, and the media fetting and lauding of a governor who has failed. He has failed. What are they lauding his performance for? His state was not prepared. His state budget was not prepared. He was bankrupt in his state before this because he can't lead and make the hard decisions.

He was grossly wrong on the ventilator issue. He was wrong on the hospital bed issue. They were wrong on the predictions. They were wrong on the models. I just read a story that the USS Comfort, the Navy ship that was up there providing services, served something like 179 people. What? It cost millions of dollars to ship up there.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is not an appropriate allocation of assets. Cuomo has been wrong on everything. And yet, of course, because Cuomo is a Democrat, and you know, we got to go after Trump all the time in the media, goal number one. And paint the two as foils. That's right. They had a, we love, oh my gosh, Cuomo's been great. He's been

great on what? What has he been great on? Please explain to me. Here's a short clip of Andrew Cuomo yesterday when he's asked a perfectly logical question by a reporter who says, hey, listen, governor, people are out of work here, okay? People are starving. We're going to, we shut down the economy here. People have no jobs. They're being fired. They can't feed their kids. And people are really worried about what's going to happen tomorrow. What's your answer to that? Because you don't seem to have an exit plan for this shutdown and this lockdown, which I think we can all acknowledge at this point. The universal lockdown was a total failure. Was a total failure. It's time to start ignoring the universal lockdown was a total failure. Was a total failure.

It's time to start ignoring. The universal lockdown, not the mitigation measures, was a failure. Here's Cuomo's unbelievably out-of-touch answer to people out there suffering who are having a tough time feeding their kids and paying their rent. Listen to this garbage. You want to go to work? Go take a job as an essential worker. Do it tomorrow. Right? You're working. You're an essential worker. So go take a job as an essential worker. But the people aren't hiring because of the pandemic.

No, there are people hiring. You can get a job as an essential worker. So now you can go to work and you can be an essential worker and you're not going to kill anyone. Kind of a smart ass answer is that. That you said worse before the show, but in the interest of staying on the air, I'll leave out what you because Joe is not happy about that either. I'm not. And rightfully so. And Joe doesn't always comment, by the way, on clips, sometimes even if they're really bad in the interest of getting going. Joe's like, I got to say, even Paula was like, shut up. We got to get the show started. Because Joe was not happy. And Joe's a happier guy than I am. I'm a little more dour. What kind of a dumb comment was that?

If you want to get a job, go get a job as an essential worker. So just to be clear, ladies and gentlemen, if you're out of work, you can't pay your rent, having a tough time feeding your kids, your business has just been wiped out. Just don't, Joe, ladies and gentlemen, if you're out of work, you can't pay your rent, having a tough time feeding your kids. Your business has just been wiped out. Just don't go, Joe, go to medical school because of course you can afford it right now. No prob. Four years in medical school. No problem, Joe. No problem. A couple years in a residency, maybe a year in a specialized internship. Get reclassified as an essential worker in an ER somewhere, Joe. Don't worry. And you be A-OK. No worries at all.

I'll be a cadaver. Don't you worry. Or Joe, come on. Let's make it easier. Easier? All you dunces out there. All you people at your great unwashed coma. Go get a job as an essential worker. Joe, go to a police academy. It'll only take you nine months. Apply for the

even though nobody's hiring. Oh, no problem. Pre-certify as a police officer. You could be an essential worker. Yeah. Or, joke, let's make it even easier. Maybe the fire academy's a little shorter. I'm not sure. My police academy was like nine months.

Maybe the fire academy's only like, go get a job as a fireman or an EMT. It's only a year of training, maybe a little less. You're pushing my buttons, dude. Don't worry. You're pushing my buttons. I know, I know. I know. That's why I'm trying to keep these things unemotional.

Thank you, sir. Although it's hard for me, again, after yesterday's show where we had to end off with me telling you a story about a close friend who proceeded to hang himself because he lost his livelihood while they stuck him in isolation. But don't worry. He could have just got a job as a police officer or a doctor or maybe he could recertify as a nurse somewhere freaking dunce what an idiot i want to talk about something else here too because he says something at the end which is the democrats and the lock it down forever or you have blood on your hands

crowd that is really starting to piss me off by the way their new line of attack is this crowd that is really starting to piss me off, by the way. Their new line of attack is this. Well, you don't have the right to go out in the public and kill anyone. You heard Cuomo say it at the end of that cut. Rewind it if you missed it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The end of that cut, he says, well, and, you know, get a job as an essential worker. If you go out, then you won't kill anyone.

Right. Their new line of attack is this, that you don't have the right to infect someone else. Let's talk about this. Because remember, the Democrats and the lockdown crowd are starting to deal with some real hard public pressure. As a friend of mine reminded me on email yesterday, we had a line in the Secret Service about getting big. When the shots start firing and you're a secret service agent, folks, you don't get the duck.

You do the opposite. You have to train the opposite because your instinct when gunshots are coming is to do what it's to duck and get out of the way, right? To train a secret service agent takes about a year or more to train them to get big and not small so that the bullets hit them and not the guy or woman behind them. It's now time to get big. It's time to put our big boy pants on for the libs out there and start to deal with the crisis that has some really hard problems that are going to require some really hard solutions.

And stop with the Pollyanna bull responses like, lock it down or you have blood in your hands. I'm sorry. That's an idiotic simpleton response that only someone with an IQ in the double digits would say. This is a multivariable, complicated problem that is going to require big people to get big and make hard decisions that require guts. If you're a simpleton with no guts who wants to say dumb things like,

well, you don't have the right to kill someone else, you're discounted from the conversation like the hapless Cuomo. Number one, if you are willingly infecting other people, yes, you are a son of a, you get it it you've probably broken the law you're an unethical immoral immoral slob and you should probably be prosecuted willingly infecting someone else with a deadly potentially deadly virus case closed on that we can all i i can't imagine anyone would disagree with that if you are willingly infecting, you're a sick human being. Man.

But what Cuomo is saying is he's conflating that. This is the Democrats. Don't forget. You don't have the right to infect someone else as if you're doing it willingly. But that's not what we're talking about. Forget the willingly. We all agree those are evil people who should be prosecuted. What they're suggesting is your very presence in public, whether you have this virus,

you're asymptomatic and don't know, your very presence in public is a threat to others. And because of that threat, we should bankrupt you, starve you, bankrupt the economy, and keep it shut down until we can bribe the federal government for a state bailout because we couldn't handle our finances for the past three decades. Oh. Please understand the distinction. Cuomo's not a dumb politician. No, no. He understands right now what he's doing.

He needs a federal bailout for his state because he has bankrupted them for decades. A federal bailout, which is just a bailout, again, by people who live here for other people who live here, taking money from people who live here to give to others that we don't have to borrow from people who live here. We don't have any money. He wants them. So he understands he has to make emotionally loaded arguments. And the first argument he's going to make is you don't have the right to infect anybody

else. Ladies and gentlemen, do you understand? Forget forgetting willingly doing it unwillingly, if you don't know it, you're out in public and you shake someone's hand when you have a cold and you don't know it. Ladies and gentlemen, you didn't do anything wrong. The world is full of risk. There are people who get in a car accidents every day. There are people who, you know, get on an airplane that crashes. There are people who come down with deadly viruses just from living in a world full of risk. Suggesting we should lock down and bankrupt people to mitigate every single risk is insane.

Think about that logic, okay? And I don't want to confuse anybody. This is important. The logic he's using, you don't have the right to unwillingly infect anybody else. And I'm going to use that as an excuse to squelch your individual liberty and freedom and destroy your job and your livelihood and everything else i took a few notes here we could use that logic for anything joe we could say well you don't have the right to infect anyone else with the flu i'm forcing you to get a flu shot

i don't want to get a flu shot you may not want i get them you may not want them and i understand that that's your choice we live in a free country i'm gonna ask you a question at the end of this is a test my in this segment joe is that not you don't have the right to infect anyone with the flu you have to get a flu shot well what if i don't you're going to jail the same logic can be used there to liberals this sounds reasonable yeah no one has the right to infect anyone with the flu mandatory get a flu shot you're going to jail we can say it's mandatory you eat vegetables mandatory we're going to do home checks every night no you don't have the right to go to the hospital if you eat chocolate and potato chips every day and have a heart attack

and take services away from someone else you don't have that right no you have to eat vegetables every not fair sounds reasonable to the anti-liberty crowd right we'll arrest you if you don't get a flu shot man home checks every night for vegetable eating why not it's the same logic is it not you don't have the right to infect anyone you have the right to take hospital services because you don't eat right. What about alcohol? Why is alcohol legal? You don't have the right to get drunk. You could get in a car and kill someone.

It happens all the time. Drunk driving is a very serious problem. People die all the time. Both the person who engaged in the drunk driving and they kill other people. Alcohol. Why is alcohol legal? You don't have that right to drink you can put someone else at risk you could fall on your face because you're drunk have to go to the emergency room take away services from someone else cigarettes why is

tobacco legal you don't have that right to pollute your lungs with tar and nicotine chemicals you're gonna go to the hospital i need a lung transplant from someone who needed a lung transplant because they had some disease not related to smoke you don't have that right i'm gonna ask you this final question i want to move on yeah this is the only question that matters the only question that matters now in response to that. Do you believe in liberty and freedom or not? That is it. If you believe in liberty, liberty comes with consequences and great responsibility. Liberty is not easy. It was never going to be easy. It's not as simple two plus two equals four. Liberty has consequences and freedom has consequences, but we have believed as the most wealthy, prosperous, freedom-loving constitutional

republic for over 200 years that those consequences are worth it. That the price we pay for liberty, yes, people get sick sometimes because they don't get a flu shot. Yes, people go to the hospital because they eat terribly. Yes, people do drunk drive and kill other people, tragically, because they make really dumb decisions with alcohol. People choose to smoke, knowing it will kill them and take up healthcare services. No, but we want to be free. We were born free.

God has touched us on our shoulders and blessed us with the big R God-given right to freedom. Do you believe in it or not? And if you believe in it, ladies and gentlemen, then what's going on now is a travesty. We live in a world of risk. This virus has presented another one. There are measures, masks, hand-washing,

appropriate social distancing, spacing out restaurants we can take. But we live in a world of risk that is, listen to me, never going away, ever. Listen, the horse blinders, please. I used to say this to people in the Secret Service when they got distracted and I was talking to them. Put your horse blinders on.

Right now, it is never, ever, ever going away. Ever. Ever. Risk is never going away. Ever. Do you want to be free or not? Because there's a very simple way to eliminate the risk in your life. That's to chain yourself, take your own liberty away to your bathroom

and have someone come in in a food dish in a bubble suit every day and drop off some water. It's called jail. Jail. That's what that is. There's no risk in jail.

They can isolate you in solitary. You're not going to get any virus. You will never be hit by a drunk driver. You'll probably get some medical services too. You don't ever have to worry about the corona or anything else. You are in solitary confinement, but you are not free. And it's time to get big again. It's time to stop ducking and it's time to get big. And I'm sorry, these lockdowns are a catastrophic mistake. You are putting people in isolation prisons

and I found one of them. I don't even want to get into that. That's not freedom, folks. We just found out today 4.4 million more million million not thousand not ten thousand not hundred 4.4 million people more just applied for unemployment benefits for the first time you know what the total is people now unemployed 26 million and if I hear one more blue check mark, out of touch, bubble dwelling, liberal commentator, or shut it down or you're all going to die, a person on Twitter say, the polls are suggesting that only 25% of Americans support opening up the economy.

I'm not interested in your damn polls. And let me tell you why. There's an asymmetry there you don't understand because you live in your bubble. The 75% of people who don't give a damn about the lockdowns are the ones that still have jobs. They're not the 25% who after the fourth missed meal with their kids are going to be really pissed off, folks. There's an asymmetry in the passion there. You get it? You cite to me one more poll, I'm blocking these accounts immediately. I'm sorry, I can't handle it. 25% of people, it's only 25% say open up the economy.

Those are the ones that are dying every single day, slowly. Explain to me how you thought this one through to the lockdown crowd. Look at this New York Times headline. Did you miss this? This is in the New York Times. Instead of a coronavirus, the hunger will kill us. A global food crisis looms. Did you think this through, man?

Did any of you think this through? Shut it down. It will potentially save 50,000 lives. As you kill millions of people causing a mass famine because you shut down the world economy, you numb nuts. Did you think of this? Did any of you think this through? Oh, don't worry. Andrew Cuomo told you to get a job as an essential worker.

Don't worry. Learn to code. Learn to code, folks. You miners out there, all deplorable miners and carpenters, architects, electricians, you people who work for that, just learn to code. Andrew Cuomo. Coding, I'm sure, is essential. Do you think about any of this? Or are you so simple-minded that this was a single variable problem for you? Shut it down and people won't get infected.

Shut it down, you'll bankrupt people who may starve and may die from depression, suicide, stress. Did you think about any of that? No that no no but we crushed the coronavirus yeah you crushed everyone else too in the process this was never a single variable problem ever this was a complicated multi-variable problem which required a multi-variable analysis which which never came. If you apply single variable analysis to any problem, you will get stupid solutions. You ever hear of Pareto optimization? Look it up. The best public policy responses are those that help

at least one person while harming no one. Can you actually tell me you Pareto optimize this? When you've harmed 26 million people's lives? This is bull, man. Apply it to any problem. We need to stop, crush, squelch out murder. Yeah, we do. That's a serious problem, just like the coronavirus.

Real serious problem, because you're dead if it happens to you. So how are we going to do it? We're going to mandate a stay-at-home order on Saturday nights, because that's when a lot of murders happen. No bars, no alcohol, no drinking. We solved the problem. Single variable stupid thinking. Folks, I'm sorry, man.

This thing yesterday, I can't. This guy, I'm losing this guy yesterday and the effect on this community. This friend of many people who was found hanging because he lost his livelihood and was stuck in isolation. He was a good man. He was always texting me about charitable donations and donating to people and was a church-going guy.

Was loved in this community. Hanging. What, he doesn't matter? And listen, even though he was my friend and I'm passionate about it, I'm really not trying to pull an emotional trick on you to use a personal tragedy amongst me and many people in this neighborhood who knew this great guy i'm only suggesting that because this is just the start i don't remember who said it may have been havelock ellis or someone else

but don't ever forget we're only four missed meals away from chaos. And your single variable, shut it down or people will die. Your single variable thinking is moronic. People are dying now. You're about to cause a global famine. Have you thought any of this through? All right, let me take a

commercial break here because I need to I need to get this together I didn't expect to spend as much time on that but it matters I don't want to hear one more story on my Facebook not one more you have any idea how many Facebook messages emails and

tweets we got from people who found friends hanging too? If you read my Twitter, it'd be far different. All right, I've got a lot more to get to. I want to get to this police story, which is finally some good news afterwards. I was waiting for this to happen. I thought it was only a matter of time.

but I'm going to play this video quickly after I get to it. The Federalist has a great article up in the show notes. Please read it. It's important. If you want to get my show notes, again, bongino.com slash newsletter. Subscribe to my newsletter. We email you the show notes every day.

Promise we won't spam your inbox. I think most of you on my email list already know that. But I saw this story at the Federalist, and it's a good one. They do great work over there. By Tristan Justice. Police have started revolting against draconian coronavirus edicts from local tyrants i'm gonna get this a second but just a

screenshot screenshot from the story here and i'll explain to you what's going on because i've even had to be fair i've gotten some emails from police officers who are a little bit upset with me i've got an overwhelming number of emails from police officers who think I'm onto something, but I like to give you both sides about traffic to the show, only fair. From the piece, what's going on here? Well, police officers folks are being asked to do things that are clearly unconstitutional and ridiculous.

So the Houston Police Officers Union, round of applause for you, declared Wednesday that its members, the police officers, would refrain from enforcing a local county judge's ruling, deeming it mandatory for any individual over the age of 10 to wear a mask in public. Good for you. The Houston Police Officers Union believes everyone should be wearing a mask in public

in order to protect themselves from the virus, and we're encouraging our officers to wear a mask. Sound insensible, by the way, folks, the union wrote in a statement. However, we draw the line if the draconian measures judge hidalgo has decided to engage in good for you they're not the only ones either in houston now i don't mention names on the show friends of mine but i was a police officer one of the my friends i went to the academy with and been texting. And I've been wondering this same question. I was wondering when the New York City PBA, the SBA, the Patrolman's Benevolent Association,

Sergeant's Benevolent Association, the DEA, Detectives Endowment Association in New York, NYPD, the biggest police department, when the union for the LAPD, I was wondering back then when they were going to do the same. Sticking frontline police officers who, ladies and gentlemen, you know, I think the world of any assertions otherwise in my email, I'm disregarding immediately because you've never listened to my show. You're impugning my character. I'm not going to accept it. I have stuck my neck out for these men and women because I was one of them. I believe in them. I know who they are. They're not always perfect. They make mistakes. When they make mistakes, we all should correct them and we should all speak out in the name of liberty and justice.

I believe in oversight like everyone else. But some of the finest people I ever worked with in my entire life were the federal agents and cops I was on the front lines with. I will not accept. I will delete the email. Email all you want. If you're going to sit there and tell me I'm attacking the cops, it goes right in the gut. I won't even read past the first line because you clearly have no idea what's in my head.

I won't even read past the first line because you clearly have no idea what's in my head. Asking police officers to do things like locking up people on playgrounds, citing people for not wearing masks, is putting the cops in a really, really bad spot. And it's time for these union representatives to speak up and say, our members aren't doing it. We swore an oath to the constitution. You're going to have to sue us. Now, I was responding to this video, which I tweeted out and I said, what the hell is this? I'm sorry, but this was bad judgment. I got a bunch of emails from people saying, oh, the officer was just doing his job. I'm going to get to that after a minute, but I'm going to have to talk through this a little bit for our audio audience.

But this is some video audio. A police officer confronts a woman on a playground with her kids and winds up arresting the woman for trespassing on a playground because of these quarantine stay at home orders. I've already heard it. They're saying, oh, lady, it was a publicity stunt. That's not an excuse. If it was a publicity stunt, then you played heard it. They're saying, oh, lady, it was a publicity stunt. That's not an excuse. If it was a publicity stunt, then you played into it, law enforcement, by arresting her. That's not an excuse. Then why would you arrest her? It's a publicity stunt.

I'm going to play into it? That makes no sense. I'm sorry. Maybe it was. I don't know the woman. It doesn't matter. Nothing changes the fact that this is really bad decision-making. Check this out.

Do it. Record it. Are you going to... You have five seconds. Three. Arrest me if you're going to the police. Do it. Record it. Okay, this is not... Officer, you don't want to do that. Officer, you don't... Am I being arrested or detained? Am I arrested or detained?

Someone call Idaho Freedom Foundation right now and get them on the phone. Call now. I'm recording. Someone else call. Okay. Can you call? Her kids are here. Come on, guys.

Come on, man. Come on. And for the guy who tweeted me this morning, Billy, never met you before, but tweeted back to me. I saw it. I don't see all of them. He said, come on, Dan. They were just doing their jobs. No.

No, I'm sorry. You have totally missed the point. Number one, I'm not going to be lectured by anybody. As Joe well knows, and so does my wife in the background, I had a nice job in law enforcement. Paid me six figures with overtime. I was a secret service agent, New York City police officer in the 75, and I loved him. And I walked away from that job and nearly went bankrupt, had a hard time finding money to pay for my daughter's dental appointment after she had a cavity, nearly missed a couple mortgage payments, and almost lost my house when I left my job because I believed in something bigger.

And listen, ladies and gentlemen, believe me, this is not a self-praise moment. I'm suggesting to you, don't dare lecture me on what do you want them to do? Stand up for the right thing? I've been there. I don't speak with forked tongue. I did it. And I'm not kidding when I tell you we've nearly lost everything doing it. I don't have with forked tongue. I did it. And I'm not kidding when I tell you we've nearly lost everything doing it. I don't have a pension anymore from the federal government. So please spare me the lectures on what do you want them to do? The right thing. The right thing. And why? Well, obviously, because it's the right thing to do is not to arrest a woman on a playground

in front of her kids. But secondly, think this through. The whole it was a publicity stunt by the woman thing is dumb. If it was or wasn't is irrelevant because you played right into it. Because, Joe, it wouldn't have been public and viral if you didn't arrest her there you go

you were the publicity stunt think this through i applaud the houston pd and others taking a stand but i'm asking you those men and women on the front line who i believe me whether you care about my opinion or not i think the world. My heart and soul is with you. I have done everything with my public voice. You have been gracious enough to give me, and I thank the Lord for every day, to defend you when everyone else was crapping on you. And I will continue to do that.

But this is just stupid. You are losing people. stupid you are losing people you consent of the governed matters ladies and gentlemen it's not a joke and when you lose the consent of the governed and the public support for police this will get really bad the front line the bulwark the front line against the assault on police officers to all of the cops listening. And you know this. And I've been getting tons of positive email from you. I'm not talking about everyone.

About 80% positive. But to be fair, about 20% saying they're just doing their jobs. Trust me. The front line, everything stopping. The social media blue checkmark horde from coming for the cops and having you all locked up for doing your job, believe me, are the conservatives and liberty lovers out there who understand you are the thin crust protecting the volcano from erupting. We get that. When you lose them because of stuff like this, it's over. And if you don't see that,

you really need to reconsider what you're doing. I'm telling you, you are losing people in mass. People who are diehard defenders of everything I used to do and you do now. I'm begging you, unions and everyone else, to please, humbly, with the greatest of respect for your job and your bravery and everything

you do for very little money, to please take a stand against this now or it's going to be a far different policing environment when this is over. Please do the right thing. And again, a final thank you to the overwhelming number of police officers and federal agents and corrections officers, EMTs, paramedics, firemen out there, and women who do this job, who have the cojones to go out there and do it every day, putting themselves at risk with this virus out there. People coughing all over them every single day. You got a lot of guts. You have my utmost respect. But please, please don't do this.

Believe me, I say this out of just passion and love for what you do. There is no other intent here. All right. Now, getting back to some more unfortunate Democrat comments here. We're talking about Cuomo before. Sorry, the show's been very serious today, so maybe a moan of tragic humor here. Here is the just horrible Nancy Pelosi,

who, again, anyone else is going to, she's a brilliant political tactician. Ladies and gentlemen, she was eating ice cream from a $24,000 freezer, gourmet ice cream, while suggesting to Americans on a late night show that she was going to block a bailout bill for small businesses because they said so. They blocked it. Remember the PPP?

A little background before I get to this cut. This Paycheck Protection Program passed in bipartisan fashion was a multi-billion dollar bailout in the hundreds of billions to give people paychecks whose businesses have been businesses they worked for have been forced to shut down by the government. Everybody clear? It was so popular they had to replenish it with a couple hundred billion dollar more. The problem was the Democrats didn't want that replenishment without sticking in some identity politics provisions. You're a racist if you don't give your money to this folks or that folks or this group or that they wanted that. And the Republicans said, no, no, no, we're not doing that.

We're just replacing paychecks. We're not doing identity politics. How many white people are on your board? And then he said, we just want people to get paid. Let's be crystal clear on this. There is no disputing it amongst rational people. If you're not rational, the segment's not for you. Rational, reasonable people.

There is no dispute that the Democrats blocked it. McConnell just wanted the money, nothing else to go into the program to pay you. Pelosi said, no, we want this condition, A, B, C, D. It was her who blocked it. Here is Nancy Pelosi on MSNBC, again, astonishingly, just completely rewriting history and suggesting something factually incorrect that they were the ones who wanted it. And McConnell got in the way, despite no sane human being believing it. And watch the MSNBC. It doesn't even interrupt it. They just let her go on and prov that everyone check this out. Mitch McConnell likes to say we delayed the bill. No, he delayed the bill. Check this out.

Mitch McConnell likes to say we delayed the bill. No, he delayed the bill. Two weeks ago, he came to the floor and said, this is all we're doing, just the 250. And the Democrats were reunited, House and Senate. The Senate Democrats went to the floor and said, no, no to that. We have a better idea about hospitals and testing and more funds for all of the businesses, the lower, shall we say, the unbankable small businesses. So we were very pleased that he finally came around to the fact that we had to go forward with this. So he was the one wasting time.

I say that because I keep hearing him say are we delayed no he delayed joe did you hear it did you hear her in the beginning acknowledge folks please again on the youtube youtube.com slash bungie you know or whatever you're listening apple podcasts wherever you're listening rewind that she says at the beginning, McConnell gave her a clean bill to fund the program that they said, no, they wanted all these conditions, wokeness, racial quotas. They wanted the, she says it in the beginning, listen. And then she proceeds to say, so we stopped it. And then at the end goes, but McConnell blocked it. If you can follow that logic, please see a psychiatrist immediately. Because I'm sorry, you think in word salads and neologisms and things.

That makes no sense. McConnell claimed me a clean bill to replenish it. I blocked it because I wanted all these conditions. But McConnell really blocked it. Okay. Okay. Oh. Okay. Oh, sure. I'm sure that makes sense in the world of Nancy Pelosi.

We're just a liar. She's just a liar. It's her own clip where she refutes her own argument. And, and morning Schmo is sitting there and Mika, like two total buffoons, not daring to say, wait,

wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on. Speaker. Madam Speaker. You just said McConnell gave you a clean bill and you blocked it. You're now suggesting McConnell blocked the bill you just said you blocked? He blocked the block of the block? What's the real story, Madam Speaker?

Let liberals pay attention to these idiots. Listen, I'm not suggesting to you the Republicans have all the answers here. I can't say that enough. But I am suggesting to you that although Republicans

may not be the solution to all your problems, there's been a lot of pathetic stuff done lately, including spending us into an abyss that we're never going to get out of.

Republicans may not be the solution to all your problems, but Democrats are certainly the cause of all your problems. That's for certain. Notice how she brings up testing again. Why is the testing canard coming up again? When I say testing canard,

I don't mean testing's a canard. I mean the testing they're using as a talking point to continue to shut down the states, bankrupt and starve you, causing a global famine and bankrupting the hospitals. You're going to have to go to for the healthcare.

That's going to make you healthier, Joe. Going to a hospital that doesn't exist because they're being bankrupted by the shutdown. Pelosi has a talking point and it's been fed to all the Democrats. All the Democrat governors. We're not opening up unless we can test, as Paula said this morning,

so we can test everybody. Keep in mind, as President Trump had to point out to the hapless governor of Maryland, Larry Hogan and others, they have the testing capacity in their states right now. It's not the president's job to go and take over Maryland and figure out how Maryland works. He operates a separate entity, the federal government. We are a federalist system. But Larry Hogan, Andrew Cuomo, and others want to be babysat. They have the capacity, which says to me, well, why are they not using it? Because, ladies and gentlemen, they don't want to open up right now.

I'll leave the motives and the speculation of motives up to you so they keep saying we can't open up until we test so test no no I need the president to help me test why you have the capacity now what else you need no the president needs to declare a national defense act and socialize the economy for

cotton swabs what you can't figure it out no angel como joe he's the messiah to the left he can't figure out how to get the cotton swabs yeah i thought trump was an idiot though now you want so let me get the street you think trump's an idiot but you want him the the idiot air quotes to figure it out for you because you're the genius please explain that to me again i don't remember a time doing advances in the secret service when i when i acknowledged i was an idiot to the lead advance when i was doing a site hey mr lead advance i'm a moron i can't figure out how to secure this airport can you come in here and help me they'd be like hey tell you what uh son here is a one-way ticket back home turn in your badge when you get back to dc you piece of

garbage oh that's right. Believe me, that's what would happen. I hear you, bro. Trump's an idiot. Well, why? If he's an idiot, why do you want him to figure it out for you? Because this testing thing with them has become a talking point. They don't want to open up.

Why? Ladies and gentlemen, they want a bailout. Look at this Wall Street Journal article today. They need a bailout. Why? Because these genius leaders like Andrew Cuomo being feted by the president. Oh, he's so wonderful. He's a wonderful president.

Bankrupted you in New York a long time ago. Wall Street Journal editorial board. Bail out the states? Any more federal aid should come with very strict conditions. No, no. No more federal aid because there's no such thing as federal aid. It's your money. And if you live in Florida or Texas, again, not perfect, but states that have been far more conservative with the spending of public taxpayer dollars, no, you should not be bailing out states that for years flushed your money down the toilet on Green New Deal type nonsense while you guys in Florida have to foot the bill. No,

we're not doing it. And I'm sorry, that is entirely unethical. Let me go to a quick screenshot from the journal piece. This is Andrew Cuomo. You know the state governments are broke. This is his words. By the way, he takes no responsibility for this. He says, you know the state governments are broke because he broke them, to use a blunt term. He goes on. You know the state governments are now responsible

for reopening and the governors are going to do the reopening and they have no funds to do it. Cuomo said after President Trump's call asking for more federal cash. Tell me again what the motives are. Again, don't listen to me. Listen to their own words. I'm not reopening unless I get federal cash. Then you're not reopening because there is no federal cash. None. The federal cash is our cash, including our, meaning people from New York. You're borrowing money from people in New York to give back to people to New York, and you're not going to reopen the economy unless you can borrow

money from them to give to them at interest later on? What kind of sense? Do you understand even basic economics? By the way, totally regarding this little tidbit from the last bailout in the Wall Street Journal. Keep in mind, quote from the journal, that Joe, the $2.2 trillion CARE Act last month included a $150 billion blank check to states, plus $90 billion for schools, public transit, and Medicaid. You may say, well, what does that mean? Well, let's put these numbers in perspective. All ALL state tax revenues

during the last three months of 2019 totaled $254 billion so washington's last state infusion is roughly equal to three months of their entire tax collection you've already been bailed out no no more it is unethical there is no money and it avoids the hard choices and there are hard choices amongst people who have to get big right now and be leaders. You did this Cuomo. Voters voted you in and you took that responsibility and you flushed money down the toilet, making promises to people you can't possibly make. They were expensive promises. And I'm genuinely sorry to have to tell you this.

If you bought into this thinking there was a money fairy, then you made the wrong bet. There are people down in other conservative states who have worked for governments who took far lesser salaries. They could have gone up to New York and taken a six figure salary to be a bureaucrat or anything else. And they didn't do it. They live in other states because those states were not profitable again and didn't flush their money down the toilet. They lived responsibly. We are not bailing you out. And somebody needs to say it. President, too, I'm telling you right now, if this decision to bail out the states

comes down there is going to be a revolt in the conservative movement i promise you there is no bailout we don't have the money you are borrowing from people who live the more austere lifestyle, borrowing their money, their kids and their grandkids when we're out of money now to give the states that lived high on the hog when they had no money to do it. No, the answer is no. It's unethical. It's immoral and it's not right. And the president should get up at the press conference and say as much. It is not going to happen. You are going to reopen when you deem it safe. If you're waiting for federal bailouts to come, it's not going to happen because there's no money.

You, as a leader of your state, you need to figure this out. All right. Let me move on. All right. Our last sponsor of the day before we get to our next topic here is Patriot Mobile. Ladies and gentlemen, I can't say it any simpler than this. Please stop sending your money to some of these cell phone companies out there that really can't stand us.

All right, getting back to the show. So the Washington Examiner had an interesting story up. I just want to put up quick before we get to this john solomon so i got a john solomon john brennan's freaking out folks i'll tell you why in a minute johnny b johnny boom bots is back in a panic cold busted um but let me just get this to wrapping up this segment on the economics of the shutdown we're destroying people's lives potentially impoverishing the globe here washington examiner story about this coming fight coming up here, that the coronavirus debt will likely kill the leftist policy dreams. You know, I don't want to spend a ton of time on this because I know a lot of you like the economics. Some of you like it. Some of you,

but here's the bottom line, ladies and gentlemen, we spent so much money, upwards of $2 trillion just on this coronavirus mitigation measures alone. That sooner or later, we're going to reach a tipping point. Now, as the Washington Examiner says in this piece, nobody really knows exactly what that tipping point is for debt. In other words, just making an analogy towards your own personal finance situation, how much credit card debt can you take on

before you finally get bankrupt? I don't know. When you get there, you'll know because you're bankrupt. So they say there's no magic number of debt that suddenly becomes impossible to maintain. But CBO economists have warned that at some point, investors will become skittish about purchasing federal debt and will demand higher interest payments. Yes. This is what I have been warning you about. Read this Washington Examiner piece. It'll be up in the show notes today. I have been warning you about this.

will be up in the show notes today. I have been warning you about this. I know now, just like in the pre-coronavirus things where really nobody worried about a global pandemic. They didn't know. I mean, I don't want to say nobody. There were people who predicted

that this could happen and believed in the precautionary principle and all that. But the problem with things like viral outbreaks is when they hit you, everybody goes, Oh,

we didn't think that was going to happen when people warn them, it was going to happen. I'm warning you now, a debt crisis, sadly, sadly follows the same response trajectory. Everybody goes, Oh,

so what? We're 24 trillion. It's not affecting my life. And it's probably not right now. The problem is when it does, it destroys everything like a forest fire. And the canary in the coal mine are interest rates. When people start to realize that the US government has run up so much debt, in other words, borrowed money from you, that's what they do. They issue bonds where they borrow money from you to give back to you in the form of a paycheck protection plan,

snap card, whatever it may be. The government doesn't produce anything. The government just takes from you to give to you. What did Friedman always say? The joke of government spending is you think you're spending your neighbor's money? The joke is your neighbor's thinking the same thing? You understand that.

It's all your money borrowed from you to give to you while the government pays itself in between. Government bonds are not net worth. Sooner or later, ladies and gentlemen, throughout human history, it has a 100% success rate of happening. Sooner or later, people figure out they're not going to get their money back.

And they're going to start demanding interest rates that are through the roof to lend money to the government because there's risk. They don't see the risk now. And when they see the risk, everybody sees it at the same time. Hence the term bond vigilantes and others. You say, oh, so what? The government will have to issue bonds and pay interest rates of 9%, 10%. That's not my problem. You sure? Because just about everything in the economy are indexed somehow to some form of a government bond or interest rate. Your mortgage will be 10%. Your car loan will be 10%. Your credit card will be 30%.

They say, well, I won't be able to borrow money then. Exactly. Either will the U.S. government. I warned you. For five years, I've been doing the U.S. government. I warned you. For five years, I've been doing the show. We are, if not at that point now, getting close to it, and we're going to find out very quickly

just how stupid these decision-making policies are. But if states, no, bail us out too with more borrowed money. Great idea. All right. Let me get to this John Solomon piece. The excellent John Solomon, I encourage you to watch my interview with him,

by the way, on our YouTube channel. Again, youtube.com slash Bongino. Please subscribe. We're resetting the goal. We hit 400,000. Thanks to your awesome support on YouTube. We're trying to get to 500,000 supporters right now. That'd be pretty cool, half a million.

So thanks a lot. We're at about 402,000. Yeah, thanks a lot. But we have an interview up there with John Solomon about Spygate. You're really going to like, but he has this great piece about how John Brennan's freaking out. And I told you, I told you this guy's in big trouble. Is he going to be locked up? I don't know. I'm not a cop anymore. I have no idea. I'm simply telling you, John Brennan's evidence of malfeasance and abuse of power and corruption is everywhere now. John Solomon,

just the news BF in the show notes, newly declassified evidence cast doubt on Obama's intelligence assessment about Russia's election intentions. Now we knew that whole sham report. I talked about yesterday, Senate Intel committee reports, all a joke, Richard Burr,

Mark Warner, nonsense, disregarded. They did. They, they dispute their own conclusions in their own report, which is kind of hilarious when you think about it. But Solomon brings up an interesting point about Carter Page here. Remember, Carter Page was the focus of the FISA warrant, used to spy on the Trump team

because he was a member of the Trump team at one point. Solomon says, the concerns included that the CIA knew that the ostensible main target of the FBI probe, former campaign advisor Carter Page, was a CIA asset and not a Russian spy. U.S. intelligence also concluded that meetings Steele alleged to have attended with Russian figures like Sechin, a Putin acolyte, did not occur, the documents show. Why is this important and what matters about this? Folks, Brennan is panicking for a number of reasons. Reason number one I've been pumping on this show for the last two and a half years now is I believe Brennan is the puppet master. Brennan knew about the fabricated collusion hoax.

He knew about it. They laundered it through Christopher Steele and the dossier. Brennan then uses the fake dossier in the summer of 2016 to push Harry Reid and others to get the FBI to spy on Page using a Fisemore. And the FBI ridiculously plays along.

He's the puppet master. So we have a couple things on Brennan. Let's go through the list. Number one, I believe Brennan lied. He lied to start the case. He kept the intelligence in a back channel because he knew if it was vetted, he'd be laughed at. And he misled the FBI and politicians, not telling them the dossier and all the stuff was a hoax. Secondly, someone's got to answer why Brennan being largely the head of the intel community outside of the ODNI, he was the director of the CIA, how it is that Brennan could have missed the ball on Russian disinformation if it's alleged that Russian disinformation

polluted the dossier. Third, if it wasn't Russian disinformation and it was all lies, so you have either two or three, the dossier was all lies, but you have either two or three. The dossier was all lies, but they were attributed to real Russians. And those real Russians may have been sources. How does the director of the CIA not know that? Now we have this little gem by John Solomon in here suggesting not only that, but Brennan knew the guy they were spying on Carter page for colluding with Russians was actually working for Brennan's own CIA and being asked to collude with Russians.

Oh, can you imagine if Brennan knew that? Wouldn't that be bad? Now we find out that the only criminal charge page has ever charged with informally in the, I say informally because it's a lie and made up. The bribe Page allegedly took from a Russian gas company in exchange for the Hillary information and other stuff.

Of course, a fake, totally fabricated charge. Now we find out that, oh, that meeting never happened at all. Well, we knew that. But let me show you this little gem, by the way, from the IG report. I found this on Twitter. Forgive me, I forget the source. You know how I always hat tip,

but it's another really good investigator. This is from the IG report. The primary subsource, we're talking about the person who gives Steele his information, told the FBI that one of his or her subsources furnished information for that part of the report through a text message,

but said the subsource never stated that Sechin had offered a brokerage interest to Page. We reviewed the text and did not find any discussion of a bribe, whether as an interest in Rosneft itself or a brokerage. Wait, wait, wait. Can I just translate that for you? Please. Because it's in Horowitz's ease. Yeah, wait. Can I just translate that for you? Please.

Because it's in Horowitz's ease. Yeah, please. Horowitz has never, Michael Horowitz's report is written purposely to confuse you. So I just went through why Brennan's in trouble. Forget the Russian disinformation. I gave you a bunch of different options.

The dossier was lies attributed to real Russians. The dossier was made up. When Michael Horowitz started looking into the charges in the dossier, including the charge that Carter Page took a bribe from a Russian gas company worth hundreds of millions of dollars, he found out that the guy who allegedly told Steele that said, oh, I heard about it in a text. When Horowitz's team reviewed the text, it was never even in there. In other words, they just completely made it up. Again, if they completely made it up and it was all lies, and these were lies attributed

to real Russians, how did St did steel get these real russians we shall see washington examiner piso you'll see john brennan is melting down right now too which i'm i i know shouting fraud is wrong but i'm enjoying every minute of this tyrant uh like a rat being cornered here john brennan claims Russia findings totally validated as top prosecutor digs deeper. Of course, he's talking about that hoax Senate Intelligence Committee report, which is an utter absurdity. We just annihilated the report on yesterday's show. What else do I have?

I had one more thing. Oh, I got to end with this. This is important. So I warned you that the gross, disgusting mainstream media, which got to end with this. This is important. So I warned you that, you know, the gross, disgusting mainstream media, which lies to you, unfortunately, 24-7, 365, was going to try to retcon their own history and pretend that they were out ahead of the coronavirus while everybody else was steering you wrong.

They're using it as an excuse to attack the president and to attack conservative media. So I want to put this Washington Examiner article up first, where Beck, I think it's Beckett Adams, is putting out the warning now. They're up to it again. Yeah, Beckett Adams. Washington Examiner, media that also downplayed coronavirus

tries yet again to pin deaths on Fox News. Now, who did this? These total losers at Vox with a V, not Fox. The liberal morons at Vox. I mean, these people, they're really, the writers who work there are dunces of the highest order here's their article this is this is a real article check this out fox a disturbing new study suggests sean hannity's show helps spread the coronavirus

this is a real this is not a joke by zach bosham but this is a what oh yeah, Paula, the subtitle's even better. Sophisticated new research show links Hannity's coronavirus misinformation to a greater number of COVID-19 cases and deaths. The research is so embarrassingly horrible that anyone promoting this should lose your college degree immediately. This isn't real research, folks.

Now, keep in mind, so Vox is saying Hannity killed people by playing down the virus. Let's look at this tweet from Vox. This is the same Vox with a V. This is the same outfit, folks. This is a real tweet. What is the coronavirus? It's a family of virus that's attacked the respiratory system. Should I travel

during the outbreak? The CDC and State Department advise avoiding travel to China for now. But is this going to be a deadly pandemic? No. No. That's Vox.

Same outlet. Yeah. Shocker, right, Joe? Yeah. Thank you to whoever put that, put the little arrow for the liberals. That's Vox.

Vox with a V, the same outfit. But Vox with an F, yes, they killed people. What a bunch of morons. I just want to point out a couple of things about this alleged research. This is so embarrassing that if you have a,

if you've even taken a statistics 101 course in high school, you would understand how this is obviously 100% politics and nothing to do with actual robust statistical analysis what they said Joe is whatever the people getting infected with COVID they view Sean Hannity more than Tucker Carlson okay

matter of fact so you're saying they're correlated how many times do I have to say correlation is not causation why? because you understand I can make the very same argument how Joe? Real simple. So if you watched Hannity, you were more likely to contract it

or die from it. I can make the argument if you voted for a liberal governor, you're more likely to die of coronavirus. Same argument. The exact same argument, is it not? No. It's not causal. What happens if you listen to us? if you voted for andrew cuomo who's a liberal quote you have a far likelier chance because new york

has the most infections ah of getting coronavirus the same argument it's stupid it's not a real argument i'm not actually making that argument because it's dumb i'm simply suggesting to you their analysis is just as dumb doesn't take into account joe by the way that fox tends to skew older has an older audience who may be more likely to contract it and die from it in other words there's a third variable that has absolutely nothing to do with sean hanny but listen liberal i know you're dunces don't let that get in the way of your stupid arguments, like things like facts and data and reason. You keep it up. Yeah, Sean Hannity killed people.

You're just an idiot. I can make the same dumb argument. Andrew Cuomo killed people. I don't because I'm not a moron like the people making this other stupid argument, embarrassing themselves, claiming this is robust statistical research. Come on, give me a break. Just come out and say you're a dunce and be fair to everyone. To be honest, I didn't even consider that last part of the older viewership.

Yeah. I mean, Joe, it's common sense. It's a third variable. Yeah. An obvious confound. So stupid.
