Get ready for the Dipsy-Doo Flipperoo.
Now, what is the Dipsy-Doo Flipperoo?
If you're a regular viewer of my show,
you've heard that term often.
This is when the media, for a couple
of days, reports on a story to maintain
some semblance of credibility, a story
about Democrats, and then after a
couple of days, does the dipsy-do
fliparoo, switches the story
around to make the Democrat who was
initially the GOAT the hero.
Get ready for it. Pretty soon,
the media will start celebrating Joe Biden
for the greatest rescue operation in human history.
You, I've, to steal a term or to borrow a term
from the great, the greatest of all time, Rush Limbaugh.

Bongino. All right, Joe, let's go. All right, Dan. I heard you. All right, Dan. Oh, you didn't hear
the bell. But I did not hear the bell. That's the bell.
Well, let's try it again.
We got to get the Kenny bell in here once in a while.
So I'm just going to throw the Kenny bell in. Well, good for you.
Yeah, Joe, very excited today.
On a Wednesday, but it's like a de facto Tuesday.
Yeah, yeah.
Did you miss that a little bit?
We were just talking about that before the show.
I said to Joe, you know, I can't really hear anything anymore.
And Paula and I both have hearing problems in the same ear.
Paula had brain surgery when she was younger.
And I have, I have this ear problem.
You know, this is the same ear I use with the secret service.
So it's like a cave, you know, because I've had this IFB in my ear for most of my adult
life.
I can barely hear anything anymore, but that's part of the business, man, you know?
All right, let's get to this.
We got a lot of material to cover today.
Let's get ready for the dipsy-do flip-a-rooski
on Afghanistan.
It's happening already.
Now, there's always a couple sycophantic,
zero-credibility losers out there in the media
who are ready to advance the flip-a-ro stat, right?
So now you're going to see the transition now.
It's going to mark my words. It is
Wednesday, August 25th.
I hope I'm wrong, but I know I'm right.
You're going to see the media transition now from
Biden is an apocalyptic
cataclysmic failure, which he is
and which we all know. You're going to
see a transition now to
a focus on this airlift
out of Afghanistan as if it's the
greatest thing since Dunkirk.
This is it.
We are saving everyone.
Joe Biden is a hero.
Joe Biden should walk down the street
carried palm fronds on him
like we're back in ancient Egypt.
Joe Biden should be lauded.
There should be thrown at his feet
frying fruits and wines.
He should bathe his feet in fancy oils.
This is coming soon.
Here's one of those sycophants first,
a guy with no credibility whatsoever.
But whenever a swamp hack needs someone to rescue them,
the swamp hacks on either side of the aisle,
from the truth, they go to a guy like Matthew Dowd.
Here's Matthew Dowd setting it up.
And then I'll play afterwards.
Saki, Jen S Psaki saying, you know,
Peppermint Patty with her whole,
this is going to be a huge success.
Here's Matthew Dowd suggesting that
we should celebrate, celebrate Joe Biden
for the disaster he caused in Afghanistan.
Check this out.
Well, as you probably are aware,
I actually have lauded the president
from the very beginning about Afghanistan.
He was dealt a horrible situation. And as of today, he's done an extremely good job in this situation. There
were many people over the last seven days that said there's no possible way he could get 50,000
people out, no possible way. And that was the number of people thought that had to get out.
He's gotten out 70,000 people in the last eight days, 70,000 people out of Afghanistan in the
last days.
And I actually think the president, for what he was dealt and what he's done over the course of
the last week, should be congratulated on the way this was done. Now, there's many things left to
handle over the course of this situation. I think the president's done unbelievable yeoman's work.
And he's the first president and four presidents to actually get done what the American people wanted done in Afghanistan, which was get out. This is, Guy just accurately stated,
this is the Baghdad Bob of American political commentators. There are no troops in Baghdad.
Remember Baghdad Bob? Troops right behind him in Baghdad. Remember that when we destroyed the
Iraqi army in just a matter of days? There are no troops in Baghdad. You remember that? This is the Baghdad Bob of American commentators, Matthew Dadd. The guy doesn't have a lot of
credibility, so there's no credibility to lose. So I guess he figures I'll be the first one
to take my marching instructions from Jen Psaki, walk out and change it. Remember what the
narrative is going to switch. I promise you over the next few days, it's going to shift away from Biden's disastrous decisions,
abandoning Bagram Air Base, having faith in the Afghan National Army, having faith in the Taliban,
all of these terrible decisions, not based on intelligence, but Biden's just awful instincts, which are always wrong.
Now it's going to switch to the airlift and the rescue operation.
Now, what's tragically hilarious about Matthew Dowd's infantile analysis here,
again, this is not a very smart man,
is he says, given everything he was dealt, Biden,
dealt by who, Biden?
Biden finds himself in Biden's situation because of who?
Because of Biden.
Joe Biden, in case Matthew Dowd doesn't know how the whole hierarchy
of the executive branch works,
Joe Biden is in fact the commander in chief of the military. This may be the first Matthew Dowd's
hearing this, but the abandonment of Bagram Air Base and trusting that the Taliban would not take
over Kabul, trusting them, which almost no serious person was telling him to do, was Biden's decision.
which almost no serious person was telling him to do, was Biden's decision.
So we have to airlift people out of Bagram, excuse me, out of Kabul rather than using Bagram,
precisely because Biden abandoned Bagram and trusted the Taliban.
What do you mean that the cards Biden was dealt?
And we love what he's doing now.
What is he doing now?
He's doing nothing.
I've got video coming up in a second of Biden answering questions on Afghanistan yesterday.
He's not doing anything.
What do you mean what he was dealt?
He dealt it.
He dealt it.
You know that old joke?
You smelt it, dealt it.
He dealt it and smelt it. It's Biden's thing.
It's a child, this infantile. it's biden's thing it's right child this infantile
it's always fun but it's true it's biden did it he's the one who evacuated bagram like an idiot
and trusted the taliban and by the way one let me put a note because i don't want to forget to
mention this during the radio show sorry don, don't mean to interrupt the podcast, but they're both interrelated.
In case any of you think or you're being told by lunatics like Matthew Dowd, Baghdad Matthew, right?
Oh, no.
You know, they didn't think no one ever believed the Taliban.
And they always knew the Taliban would take over Kabul.
We just didn't think it was going to be that fast.
Nonsense.
Biden trusted the Taliban. How do we know that? They plan to keep over 600 people in the U.S.
embassy in Kabul. Biden actually believed that the Taliban would form some joint government
and that this was all going to be like around the campfire,
s'mores roasting, singing campfire songs. Biden actually believed that. No serious person was
telling that. It was his own poor instincts. Do you understand where I'm going with this?
Because now what they're going to say is we expected this the whole time. And it Biden's
airlift thankfully saved people from what we expect? They did not expect it.
They did not even plan to get the embassy workers out of Kabul. They had because they thought they were going to be able to stay because of Biden's poor judgment, thinking the Taliban would let them stay.
Folks, do not let them rewrite history here.
Dowd clearly got instructions from a peppermint Patty.
Here she was yesterday.
I mean,
this is,
this is classic Baghdad,
Bob stuff.
There are no troops in Iraq.
There are no troops.
Here's Jen Psaki yesterday,
Baghdad Bertha,
right up at the,
she's,
he never, he left... He never laughed.
He never laughs.
It's got to be really funny for him to laugh.
He never laughs at anything.
Joe doesn't laugh at anything.
Here's Jen Psaki, Baghdad Bertha,
up there yesterday in the Brady Press Room
touting the success
of the airlift, how wonderful this is.
Keep in mind the whole time as you're hearing this,
the only reason they need an emergency airlift is because Biden made the terrible decision
to trust the Afghan army, trust the Taliban and abandon Bagram. Check this out.
I would say that this is now on track, Peter, to be the largest airlift in U.S. history. So,
and that is bringing American citizens out. It is bringing our Afghan partners out. It
is bringing allies out. So, no, I would not say that is anything but a success.
This is I mean, this is like this is new levels of astonishing.
This is really like I mean, they are, as I say often.
say often it's not that they're stupid people they're not they would almost be more comforting comforting if they were because then it's maybe not a matter of intent maybe it's just a matter
of they don't have the capacity or intelligence to process it right they're not stupid people
they think you're stupid there's's a big difference. Don't confuse the two.
Now, Biden may be stupid. I get that. But that's a different story. But Peppermint,
no. She's not dumb. She thinks you're dumb. And so does Matthew Dowd. Watch the turn in events now.
You're going to see it. Mark my words. This will be touted by
the media as a huge success. Here, Politico. Look, the media got their marching orders, folks.
Natasha Karecki. White House to media. We want our, this is a real headline. It's not a joke.
We want our props on Afghanistan. Props? Maybe we want credit, like maybe sound like adults.
The president and his team have taken it on the chin for the past week.
Now amid a massive evacuation effort, they want kudos too.
This is not a joke.
This is not a Babylon Bee headline.
They seriously want credit for a crisis they caused.
I mean, listen, I get it.
Sometimes analogies are on that. But this case, they're necessary because there are some maybe some liberals listening.
This is like being a surgeon, right?
You go into an operating room.
The guy's having a lung transplant.
You walk in there drunk.
You cut out the guy's heart instead and you leave his failing lungs behind.
And then you come in the next day and you replace the guy's heart
with a new heart, although he's still dying from the bad lungs. And now he's got a heart that
doesn't fit his body. And you're like, and everybody's like, what an amazing surgeon.
This was the greatest heart transplant ever. Seamless, seamlessly done. That's exactly what
just happened. The analogy is no different. He caused one of the
greatest humanitarian crises we've seen in that region in the last 20, 30 years. He's got crises
going on in Qatar right now as we pack our air base over there. They're not prepared for it.
He's caused a refugee crisis all over the world. And he's taking credit for trying to get a few.
By the way, Americans are all still left behind.
Tons of them still left behind.
He's taking credit for this.
Folks, again, they're not stupid.
They think you're stupid.
And as I said yesterday, even National Review's catching on now.
We've got some decent people over there,
but they've got a few numb nuts over there as well.
But National Review, Jim Garrity,
the dreadful victim-blaming spin lurking just around the corner.
I told you yesterday, they are going to abandon Americans in Afghanistan.
Bank on it.
Brett Baer reported yesterday on Fox,
they are looking to get out by that August 31st deadline.
They, us, our American military,
are looking to get out by then because of Biden's orders
and maybe even sooner.
They are getting ready to blame Americans.
Hey, we told you guys to get out.
You didn't listen.
Yeah, dude, we can't get through the Taliban checkpoints.
Oh, sorry sorry we forgot
about that they are getting ready to do it right now they are going to abandon people there bank on
it joe biden no was at least brave enough to take on some questions yesterday on afghanistan we got
to you know credit folks where credits do yeah yeah right joe yeah it's the right thing to do
don't you think?
Yeah.
So Joe is kind enough to cut.
It's a little lengthy.
I'm sorry, folks.
So just tolerate this.
We usually don't use clips more than, say, a minute and a half, two minutes long.
But this is Joe Biden taking extensive questions yesterday,
and only the biggest foreign policy crisis of our time on Afghanistan,
after what really was a dreadful speech.
But he saved himself with the Q&A.
So if you can just play that.
And again, just ask your patience.
It's a little long.
Check this out.
Thank you.
I guarantee every American will be out
before the troops leave.
I guarantee.
Did sanctions come up at all in the G7?
We bet.
Oh, am I on camera?
Oh, I'm very sorry.
Guy, you're supposed to play the rest of that.
Yeah, where's the rest of it?
Come on, with the program.
There was no rest of it.
The verdict is in.
These guys are dumb nuts.
There is no rest of this.
That's the whole thing.
That's Biden answering questions on Afghanistan.
Of course, answering no questions on Afghanistan. None. Not that the media would have any questions on Afghanistan of course answering no questions on Afghanistan
none not that the media would have any questions on Afghanistan we only got thousands of Americans
behind enemy lines we have a refugee crisis going on right now you have refugees coming into the
United States some pretending to have helped out the United States some who did this is a massive
crisis and Biden how many questions does he take goose egg zero
the verdict is in again this guy is a numb nuts a totally incompetent pino president in name only
and i'm glad that's catching on on social media spread it around the pino president in name only.
No questions.
All you got was Joe Biden's back on the way out.
I want to remind you something too on a serious note.
We engage in this emotional rollercoaster,
but that's life.
Daily Mail, longest headlines ever,
by Jack Newman.
This will be in my newsletter today. Check it on gno.com slash newsletter the un warns that the taliban are already carrying out civilian
executions recruiting child soldiers and repressing women oh i assure you they're doing a lot worse to
women folks if there was one thing i learned in my years in law enforcement, where
by the nature of the job, you find yourself surrounded almost every day with the worst
of the worst. You just do once in a while, you get what they call an aided case where you have
to help someone who fell on the sidewalk. And you know, those aren't obviously criminals,
but nine out of 10 times you're face-to-face with some of the worst people
humanity has to offer. You just are. I learned a lot there. I learned that you can't change
criminals who are savages. There are very, very few. I'm sure there are some redemption stories
out there and the rest you'll have to deal with Jesus Christ.
But I'm telling you on planet earth that very, very few people change.
I'm sorry, they're capable of it.
It does happen sometimes.
But my experience is you would see the same people
over and over and over again in the jails,
no matter what you did.
One year sentence, 10 year sentence.
Here's the problem.
They have no impulse control.
This is not a Freudian psychoanalysis session.
I'm just telling you and stating the obvious.
They have no impulse control.
They get out of jail.
They get a job for a week, if that.
A lot of, not all, but many of them.
They get out of jail for a week.
Some guy pisses them off in the back room wherever they work.
The guy winds up beating the crap out of them. You find him back in jail. They have no impulse
control at all. These criminals who act like savages, they will never change. The Taliban
are a level above street criminals. They have no redeeming characteristics at all.
These people, their only purpose, they're a level below
human waste on the value. I'm not kidding.
I said it yesterday during the radio show.
I prefer human waste to the Taliban.
Human waste may have a purpose. You can use
it for fertilizer sometimes. There's no
purpose to the Taliban. None.
So human waste actually outranks the Taliban.
You are never,
ever going to change these savages.
And anyone, anyone who thinks you're going to change them is insane.
I mean insane, meaning doing the same stupid things over and over again and expecting a
different result.
You can't change criminal savages.
You can't.
You can't.
All right, let me get to my uh second sponsor and i got i got a video coming up after the break of of just a commentator who just i mean
he's at the point now he makes me he's always running cover he attacks these two congressmen
a republican and a democrat who wanted to go over and see the situation for themselves on afghanistan
in afghanistan he attacks them as they're the enemy because he's running regime talking points.
I mean, that's what they want to do.
And then I have a classic clip of him melting down in the air,
which is always good.

I met this guy once in a green room.
This is another guy whose talking points
always seem to mirror whatever the regime wants him to say.
You know, I don't know, he's just weak
and he hears the regime talking points
and the marching orders from Psaki and Pelosi
and others and he takes, I don't know.
But I ran into this guy, just a quick story,
one time in an MSNBC green room years ago. Pelosi and others and he takes I don't know um but I ran into this guy just a quick story one
time in an MSNBC green room years ago uh true story total clown walks in there you know he's
one of these guys I I hate to say this but I've met you probably met guys and women like this too
he looks like the kind of guy that was picked on in high school so I feel bad for him he does
he was probably picked on in high school a lot he got this job in the CIA and now people kiss his butt because they think he knows stuff you
don't know, even though he's more often on the wrong side of an issue than anything.
And so he was picked on in high school. He feels the need to puff. You know, the puffers,
the peacockers. Yeah. Yeah. Chaz. Remember the guy from, what's the move? Couples retreat. Yes.
Yeah, proud chess.
This is Phil Mudd.
I ran into him in a green room.
He was so embarrassing in there.
I got off the couch and left to go sit at a table
because I didn't want him to sit anywhere next to me.
Walking around, chin in the air.
It was just embarrassing.
I was like, who's this loser?
So here's Phil Mudd on CNN yesterday.
Two congressmen, Seth Moulton and this guy, Congressman Meyer, a Democrat and a Republican, respectively, took a trip to Afghanistan.
They took a couple of crew seats.
They didn't take up any seats for anyone on the way back.
But they wanted to check out what it looked like in Afghanistan on the ground to see for themselves because they felt like they were being lied to.
All right.
I don't have a beef with that.
They're government officials for the United States. They want to sense what the degree of the problem is. One right. I don't have a beef with that. They're government
officials for the United States. They want to sense what the degree of the problem is.
One's a Republican. One's a Democrat, right? I mean, what's the big deal? We want to get the
truth about what's going on in the ground. We clearly can't trust that regime right now.
Not to Phil Mudd. Phil Mudd got his marching orders. You better attack those two guys.
Listen to this guy who, another one who can never, can never this guy has zero listen i got a temper issue not point stipulated you win but this guy has zero self-control ever
he always looks like he's constipated and he's having that moment where finally it's happening
that's what he looks like every time check this out reprehensible sharply criticized is too polite
look the president united states who is responsible first and foremost for american national security out? Reprehensible, sharply criticized as too polite. Look, the President of the United States,
who is responsible first and foremost for American national security, said the situation is so
dangerous that the U.S. military can't stay on, that we have to withdraw U.S. military.
So two members of Congress, without the support of their leadership, decide that they're going to
bypass Disneyland and take an Instagram trip to Afghanistan because they want some eye candy for a bunch of constituents. If I were Nancy Pelosi and Kevin McCarthy, I would see this
as a chance for bipartisanship. Both those guys on their committees out, done. And by the way,
ask them for the two seats they took out for all their concerns about refugees.
What happens to the two refugees who didn't get those seats? What do you tell them?
Last thing I'd say, evidently,
from what I've read,
one of the brilliant insights they've gotten is that the slow start meant
that we could get fewer people out
than we would have gotten out if we'd started fast.
Look, John, I can do oversight from Memphis
and give you that.
Reprehensible, they ought to go from their committees.
Guy brings up another good point.
I'm wondering, Joe,
you think this guy's tight with Frank Fugazi from the FBI?
You think they're buddies? You think they go outugazi from the FBI? You think they're buddies?
You think they go out like wedding crashers together?
You think they're like wedding crashers?
They're like Vince Vaughn and the Owen Wilson cat.
They go out and crash wedding crashers.
Fugazi and mud.
Muddy Fugazi.
That's what they do.
That's a great point.
Him and Fugazi are probably pals.
Listen to this clown.
I got the whole thing.
Really?
You can?
That's probably the kind of oversight you did.
That's probably why CNN uses you.
We can only imagine.
But again, attacking these congressmen
because they just wanted to go and take a look.
And by the way, Phil Mudd, of course,
has his talking points wrong.
They did not take up two seats.
They were crew seats.
And half of these planes, sadly,
are coming back empty or close to empty anyway
because Biden has done such a poor job
of actually getting our people out. Remember this classic, though? Here's what passes for TV
commentary these days. Phil Mudd, expert. Here's Phil Mudd a while ago. Paris Denard was a spokesman
for the Trump campaign. You remember Paris Denard? He used to work at CNN. CNN, of course,
because they don't like anyone who's not associated with the liberal talking points, gave him the boot. But he challenged Phil Mudd for using his security clearance to profit off of it and basically being a commentator for CNN. And Phil didn't like that at all. Phil lost his money. Check this out. Profitable Paris, when I am requested to sit
on an advisory board, let me ask you one question. How much do you think I'm paid to do that at the
request of the US government? Give me one answer and you got 10 seconds. How much?
I'll ask you a question. How much are you paid for your consulting contracting gig
for being a former official?
I have no contract with the US government that pay money.
I'm not talking.
Zero.
And this is the thing.
When I'm asked to offer advice to the US government, I get paid.
Zero.
Phil, let's be honest.
That's it.
I'm not talking about your role with the federal government.
I'm talking about the contracting gigs that you get from being a consultant.
This is the
i haven't heard that one in a while beavis i used to watch that show it was started on liquid tv and
mtv is one of my favorite shows when i was a kid i loved mr anderson do you guys do this to my
trailer no that was other kids that's phil mudd yeah phil remember that classic phil mudd losing
his mind on you that's that's so again what passes for expertise. He says he can do oversight from Memphis or
whatever. Good job, Phil. Way to knock it out of the park. All right. Let me move on. You know
what? Let me get to my third sponsor quick, but I want to move on because the data from Israel on
coronavirus, there's a lot going on, folks. We got to juggle a lot of chainsaws at the same time.
Sorry to switch gears like that in the middle of such an important topic, which it is,
Afghanistan, but there's a lot going on with corona as well because your civil liberties
are at stake here as well. We got the border thing going on, an inflation crisis. We have
to juggle a lot of chainsaws at once, but the Israeli data, the Israel data is really,
really concerning right now about what's going on with coronavirus. I appreciate your patience
with our sponsors, by the way. They want to be here to talk to you. Thank you very much. Ladies and gentlemen,

Thank you, folks.
So Cheryl Atkinson sums up the Israel data in one tweet, which is disturbing, folks.
And my fear here is that we've been clearly unable to get the truth from government organizations, the CDC and others, especially the Biden administration about Corona. So we have to
go to places like social media where we see Cheryl Atkinson, Alex Berenson, Steve Dace,
Phil Kirpin and others. They're the real truth dealers. If you're following them on social media,
you'll get a nice picture about what's going on. The Israel data. Here it is summed up in a tweet.
She says, there's no mention,
and it's talking about an article of natural immunity
after COVID infection, which isn't perfect, says scientists,
but is strong and not wearing off like the vaccines.
Here, she got data from Israel's health ministry.
Folks, they're having an explosion
despite being one of the most,
listen, this is very important,
despite being one of the most vaccinated this is very important despite being one of the
most vaccinated countries in the world israel there is an explosion of new coronavirus cases
yet look at this pie chart i'll explain it if you're listening on audio the majority of cases
are people who are not which shouldn't surprise anyone who are not vaccinated and not previously
infected what is that 60 can i see that right that's 60%? Can I see that right, Guy?
That's 60%, right?
Yeah.
The other one.
Okay, I got it.
Thank you.
Thank you for scrolling.
60%.
The second number, 39% of the cases are people who were vaccinated.
Vaccinated.
39% of the cases are people who were vaccinated already.
Folks, that's a big deal.
Almost half.
Look how many, though, cases, new cases in Israel
were from people who were previously infected,
naturally infected with coronavirus,
therefore have natural immunity.
1%.
Folks, now do you see why the vaccine mandate is such a big deal to people?
The vaccine mandate is a big deal because people actually believe in science, unlike our CDC,
Anthony Fauci, Francis Collins, Joe Biden, our Sagino, Surgeon General and name only Vivek Murthy and Rochelle Walensky.
We believe in science.
And if natural immunity, if natural immunity confers some degree of some degree of protection against reinfection,
don't you think we should study that first before vaccine mandate, force people to get a vaccine that may in fact not add much to their natural immunity.
Can we study that first?
Notice I said may,
because again, I don't jump to either conclusion.
I believe in data and science here and reason and logic.
Yeah, we laugh sometimes on the show.
Sometimes we scream, sometimes we don't.
But at the end of the day,
I always want you to leave the show informed. It is clear as day, based on a rather large sample
size set of Israelis who are having a massive bout of COVID right now, countrywide, it's becoming
clear as day that the vaccine did not perform as expected clearly we were told
otherwise and that natural immunity is performing better that israel data is clear as day i know
youtube will ban this and fake book will ban it because they hate data and science
but for those of you who get it before fake book and youtube ban it just know you're better informed
and less informed because they refuse to give you the proper data.
Maybe let people who've been infected with coronavirus
get some data as we longitudinally move on
about how long their natural immunity,
but clearly it's not perfect.
1% of people who had coronavirus
are getting reinfected in Israel.
But maybe wait until we find out
just how robust that natural immunity is
before you force them to be injected
with a vaccine they may not want.
Just maybe.
The Daily Mail's finally, well, not the Daily,
they've been pretty good.
Some of you, the Daily Mail's been decent.
The Daily Mail is reporting on this as well.
Out of the UK, just 1% of COVID survivors in Britain get reinfected.
And they're half as likely to get symptoms as first timers.
Official data shows.
I said to you last week and the week before, folks,
when are we going to start reporting on the beneficial effects of natural immunity?
You know, I,
you know,
I don't engage in like conspiratorial nonsense.
If I don't have evidence ever,
I don't care.
I,
no one will ever pressure me into reporting on things.
I'm not comfortable in reporting on.
I don't need to be first.
I need to be right,
but I'm starting to really believe here that there is something going on here.
There's something going on.
I don't know
if it's consortium between, you know, donors for some of these vaccines. I don't know what it is.
But the endless push towards masks and vaccines while refusing, absolutely refusing to talk about
natural immunity, monoclonal antibodies,
and sidelining that, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, anything else.
Refusing to entertain any data otherwise.
I mean, what?
Are you starting to ask yourself, is there something going on here?
Even Paula, who, believe me, doesn't buy into anything lightly.
She's like, I swear, like there's something going on.
We're missing you.
The endless push for vaccines and masks.
Over everything else.
It's just it's puzzling.
I want to give a hat tip here for the same topic, but different angle hat tip to Mike Cernovich who picked this out on,
on social media.
I saw it this morning.
Remember what we discussed yesterday?
Remember the,
it was reported as the doctor walkout Palm beach gardens,
which is just about 20 miles South of me.
I know Palm beach gardens as well.
Yeah.
I go to a mall down there all the time with my wife.
Remember we reported on this yesterday.
Yeah.
The doctor walkout.
Well,
in case, you know, you think we're making this up on this yesterday? Yeah. The doctor walk out. Well, in case you think we're making
this up that this was reported as a
walkout in protest, hat tip Cernovich.
Here's a screenshot from
MSNBC. The Chiron reads
we're not making this up, folks.
South Florida doctors walk out
of the hospital in protest, apparently
protesting people not getting the vaccine
or something like that. And I suggested to
you yesterday, and big thanks to my friend,
my doctor friend, Steve, for texting me about it this morning
and giving a shout out to the good doctors doing the right thing
because that's the overwhelming majority of you.
But to the small subset of doctors out there who've turned into politicians
doing walkouts of a hospital, I'm disgusted by you.
And really, you should find a new line of work because you're dangerous.
You are literally dangerous to people.
Let's walk out of the hospital.
Well, what does that do?
What about do no harm?
You ever try that?
So in case you think, again, we're making this up,
that this was reported as a walkout from this Palm Beach Gardens Hospital.
Here's what we played yesterday from MSNBC celebrating the walkout.
Check this out.
Just moments ago, more than 75 doctors
staged a walkout
to protest the number
of COVID patients
coming to the hospitals
who have not been vaccinated.
The thing,
let's bring in Carrie Sanders
because Carrie,
you're in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida
at this doctor's walkout.
Carrie,
and I know the area very well,
what Americans don't understand is for every unvaccinated person that's filling up an ICU bed,
that means with a hospital's jam, somebody with a heart attack, and I've known somebody in this position,
goes there, has trouble getting in, can't get treatment, can't get a bed.
It is a nightmare for the doctors. It is a nightmare for the nurses.
bed. It is a nightmare for the doctors. It is a nightmare for the nurses. And to the doctor's point of view, it's worse yet for sick people that want help from them.
That is truly reflective of the frustration that you see behind me. These doctors have gathered,
some coming off their shifts to come out here, gathering to try to tell people, please, first of all, ignore the nonsense and the absurdities that you're hearing people say at public meetings
and recognize the value of what a vaccine will do.
Did you hear it? We did not edit that.
That was the reporting. Joe Scarborough said what? Doctors walking out.
He was so proud of himself, this numbnuts Scarborough, right?
So proud of himself, these doctors walked out.
And then what does the guy at the hospital say that's doing the reporting?
Some of them walked off their shifts.
Well, something happened, folks.
By the way, in case you again have any doubt still that this was reported as a walkout,
here's People Magazine.
75 doctors from Florida hospitals walk out in protest
of unvaccinated patients. We are exhausted.
Yeah, we're all exhausted, docs. Get back
to work. Back to
work. Back to work.
Back to work. Everybody else is
working. Back to work.
So what
happened yesterday?
I'm getting wind out there
that there were some serious threats of some
lawsuits and other things because you're a hospital patient. Your doctor walks off the
shift and something happens to you. And all of a sudden at the hospital and the doctors were like,
oh my God, we didn't consider that. So all of a sudden the walkout narrative had to be changed.
Fact checkers to the rescue. To the rescue.
Fact checkers, folks.
I just
for you, the coverage.
We didn't, this wasn't
Republicans pouncing.
You idiots reported as a walkout.
Some doctors are leaving their
shifts. U.S. News and World Report.
Fact focus. Florida
doctors did not walk off the job.
Fact checkers.
What really happened, I can almost guarantee you,
they saw the threat of potential massive lawsuits.
Wait, we're paid to do medicine and we didn't do medicine.
Oh my gosh, lawsuits.
It wasn't a walkout.
Wasn't a walkout.
No, no, it was a unplanned,
undocumented lunch break
at seven in the morning.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, yeah.
Fact checkers do the rescue, everything.
And you wonder why everybody blocks
these idiot fact checkers, right?
Why everybody just blocks them on Facebook.
That's what you need to do.
Go to any of your social media. If you see anyone on the left
doing these facts, just block them. They're not
fact checkers. They're propaganda outlets.
Please stop the nonsense. No one's
interested in your explanations of what you do.
Lead stories and the Pointer
Institute. It's all a joke.
It's a clown show. Nobody takes you seriously.
Matter of fact, you actually have the opposite effect. Remember that poll I read once? I put out there that if
they see a story by a fact checker, fact check this false, they're more likely to believe it's
true. That's how much they failed. Fact checkers do the rescue every single time. All right,
moving on. Because on a serious note, this could get ugly fast. Again, to the good doctors out
there, thank you for everything you do i mean it
doctors in my family some of my best friends uh love you all to death you do great work but again
to the people who are dinos the doctors in name only who want to be politicians and say we're
walking out please leave the job please get out you are a threat to public health leave the job
immediately you are a threat to public health I can't even imagine having some procedure done and you saying to me,
hey, listen, hold on.
I got to do a walkout.
I'll be back in a minute.
Doc.
I'll be back in five minutes.
Please leave the job.
Reminds me of an incident I had.
I haven't really talked about much.
I'll keep it short.
But when I was going through the whole cancer thing,
I haven't really talked about much.
I'll keep it short.
But when I was going through the whole cancer thing, an incident I had at a hospital that left me stunned.
Someone actually asking me, oh, my gosh, are you a Republican?
I was like, wait, what?
Did you just ask me that?
I can't even imagine when I was a police officer, someone sitting there bleeding from being mugged.
Hold on, are you a Democrat?
I'm sorry, sir, I don't render aid to Democrats.
That actually happened to me.
It was a big deal.
Turned into like a big controversy.
Explains how I left and wound up somewhere else.
Never talked about that on the air, I don't think.
I'll leave the details out of it, but it was ugly.
This is where we're going with this.
Look at the story of Just the News.
It's in the newsletter today.
Please read it.
Washington transplant patients removed from waiting lists for refusing COVID-19 vaccine.
University of Washington Medical Center defends its decision,
saying immunity suppression becomes an issue shortly after a transplant.
Again, folks, what happened to do no harm? The Hippocratic Oath for doctors. Now are we into the
only do harm to people you don't like mode? Is that where we are?
Folks, coronavirus has changed a lot of people in America. But I'll say this and you have my word,
has changed a lot of people in America.
But I'll say this, and you have my word.
For as angry as I am, and I am,
I have a very bad temper at times.
That's not a secret.
I get angry easily at idiots, I do.
Lost it on them on my radio show yesterday.
I mean this when I say this.
I'm not kidding.
It's not virtue signaling or whatever.
I don't care.
I don't need to signal virtue to anyone. I am a firm believer in Jesus Christ. I don't know your religion. I don't care. I don't need to signal virtue to anyone.
I am a firm believer in Jesus Christ. I don't know your religion. I don't ask. It's not my business.
But I would never, ever celebrate the death from someone. I don't care how evil a person politically you are. I would not do that. And I don't think anyone else should either.
But those aren't the rules on the left you're
going to see doctors who want to be politicians now you're going to see a lot of this other stuff
here was an article in the mrc at up yesterday no mercy martina navratilova remember her tennis
player celebrated the covet 19 death of a conservative talk show host phil valentine
she's like well yeah sorry beat. Yeah, sorry. Beat it.
Now, she deleted the tweet later.
The tweet said something like, womp, womp,
like almost kind of poking fun at this guy's death.
You know, I worked at the US Open Tennis Center for a long time, and Martina Navratilova did not have a great reputation
for being kind to people.
So Martina Navratilova should really self-reflect a little bit
before she does something like that.
One more note on coronavirus before I move on.
There's other things to get to.
Just quickly, you know, we're being embarrassed right now
by Europe and the UK.
Embarrassed.
The UK has figured out that these mask mandates on kids
may have long-term side effects for their development
as they can't see people's faces or mouths when they talk.
So the UK, and this is from their own website, gov.uk,
face coverings are no longer advised for pupils, staff, and visitors,
either in classrooms or in communal areas.
While we continue to face diaper our kids.
Just stunning.
No evidence to back it up at all.
Europe and the UK are embarrassing us.
Embarrassing us right now. We're led by a bunch of nanny state idiots all right let me get to my um my last sponsor then
i want to move on i got a couple quick news stories including an election update very
disturbing news out of california uh with the california recall election i got a ronda santos

Okay, a couple of quick stories here.
I'm going to get through before I get to this.
Ron DeSantis strikes again and there's Trump ad.
The House has advanced Biden's $3.5 trillion liberal wishlist plan. Pelosi beats
moderate Dems and power play Washington times folks. This is a big problem. Why? Because we're
in a huge inflationary crisis outside of this, the sheer, sheer stupidity of passing this $3.5
trillion liberal wishlist. We don't have the money, which means we will have to print the money.
trillion dollar liberal wish list, we don't have the money, which means we will have to print the money. Folks, you think inflation is bad now. You can see an inflation target annualized.
If we pass this, let's see. Again, it's Wednesday, August 25th. Let's see if I'm right. If this thing
passes, I don't think it's going to get through the Senate. But if it passes this $3.5 trillion dollar disaster biden wants i'll bet the annualized inflation rate let's say
a couple months after the spending starts to hit starts to range anywhere from eight to ten percent
we'll see we'll see if i'm right hopefully it doesn't pass it's not an issue but inflation
will go through that you want to eat dog food for dinner? That'll be next if this thing passes.
Second, big announcement out of Georgia.
Herschel Walker declared his Senate candidacy in Georgia against Raphael Warnock.
This could be huge.
I like Herschel.
I've known Herschel.
I think he's got a good chance.
As long as he stays tight on the issues
and stays loyal to the conservative cause,
I think he's got a great shot.
We'll try to get him on the show.
California recall election. Larry Elder has a real shot. You got Kevin Kiley in that race,
too. You got a couple others as well. Fox News Los Angeles, however, over 300 California recall
election ballots discovered in suspects vehicle alongside guns and drugs. Ladies and gentlemen,
what the hell does anyone have 300 ballots in their car
for? Why would you have 300 ballots that are not yours? Because it's only you.
Or maybe he had 299 ballots that weren't his, right? Why would you have those in the car?
I suspect the fraud in the California election, sadly, could be rife. Get out and vote. I mean,
listen, I'm not going to sit here
and give you these rosy estimates.
I think Larry Elder is a shot.
Sadly, I think he has to win
by one or two percentage points more
because that's probably the fraud in the race.
That's an excuse not to vote.
So what, do you just hand it to him?
I don't know.
I don't buy that at all.
On elections 2022 and 2021 coming up.
So whoever Bill Kristol supports,
fake conservative,
you should probably always go for the other guy.
So Washington Post conservative Bill Kristol,
conservative,
endorses Terry McAuliffe, the Democrat,
race for Virginia governor,
which means you should probably vote for Glenn Youngkin.
Here's my, this is,
it's not really a golden rule.
Maybe it's like an iron rule or a steel rule instead.
But whoever Bill Kristol supports,
if you vote for the other guy,
you're probably always on the right side of right.
So just to note, Glenn Youngkin in Virginia,
the Republican is your choice.
Bill Kristol, dipsy do flip a roo, that's your guy.
All right.
We haven't done one of these in a while,
given the dour nature of the news,
but we do have some good guys out there.
So I wanted to get to a Ron DeSantis strikes again.
I love this guy.
I can't get enough of Ron DeSantis.
DeSantis doesn't buy the mass cults nonsense
because they don't have any solid science
to indicate that stop this pandemic.
And matter of fact, there is some data that it may be aerosolizing and people sneeze through the mask aerosolizing the virus rather than droplets.
You know, big droplet mask, smaller droplets works like a sieve, which may allow it to penetrate further into the lungs.
So Ron DeSantis is like, I'm going to let parents decide for themselves
if they put a face diaper on their kids, which is smart.
So here was DeSantis yesterday talking about
why politicians love face diapers so much and face masks.
Check this out.
Politicians want to force you to cover your face
as a way for them to cover their own asses.
That's just the truth.
They want to be able to say they're taking this on
and they're doing this,
even though it's not proven to be effective.
They want to continue to do it.
He's right.
This is simply a CYA mechanism
for politicians to distract you from their failures
to do anything substantial about coronavirus.
And they know liberal lemmings will fall right in the trap.
I have kids.
You have any evidence that this is actually working?
I have none.
This is what they do.
And DeSantis knows it.
All right, let me wrap up the show with this today because it's one of the best ads I've
seen in a long time.
I'm happy that the Trump Save America PAC is doing this now. You may say, well,
he's not running until 2024. Some people would debate, because I've heard this, that one of the
mistakes the Trump team made in the last election is they came out too early and spent a lot of
money on ads early in the cycle when they didn't make a lot of a big difference. They hadn't even
had a Democrat nominee yet. I get it. I understand that. It's not, they didn't make a lot of a big difference. They hadn't even had a Democrat nominee yet.
I get it.
I understand that it's not,
it shouldn't be dismissed out of hand.
So you may say,
well,
why are you defending the release of this ad now?
Because in,
in incidents like this,
where the failures by Biden are so cataclysmic,
I think it's important that we get these operations that have the resources and
the political skill to go out there and highlight it, to make sure people understand that they'll have a choice. Maybe
not now, but soon. So it's the Save America PAC, the Trump organization. They put out one of the
most damning political ads I have seen in a long time, just filleting Joe Biden because of his
for his failures in Afghanistan and elsewhere. Check every second of this out.
America is back.
Highest inflation rate in the US. Pain is a pump.
Southern border is collapsing.
A city climb of COVID infections.
We amplify our power.
We summon the new strength.
This is a recruitment ad.
Should we be embarrassed?
Diplomacy is back.
Now the Taliban are back.
Kabul is not in an imminent threat environment.
The likelihood there's going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely.
They own the whole country now, the Taliban.
The Taliban are now in complete control of Afghanistan.
Complete chaos.
How did President Biden get this so wrong?
First of all, the mission hasn't failed.
Yet.
If this isn't failure, what does failure look like exactly?
Biden, you destroyed not Afghanistan, but the world!
I don't care if you think I'm Satan reincarnated.
Do I bear responsibility? Zero responsibility.
China is ready for friendly relations with the Taliban.
I feel like I'm going to slam the door right there and the Taliban are gonna come and kill us.
Blow down everybody.
We have to ask the Taliban for permission for American citizens to leave.
True or not true? They are in control.
I can't think of anyone better to lead this operation than...
They're just chanting death to america
that's just a damning ad check it out on my uh rumble account rumble.com slash bongino the
my visuals are just stunning i, edited to the point where really,
so what done so well,
there is a skill in this.
I'm sorry again for the audio folks.
I know you're just hearing a lot of it,
but please check it out.
Rumble.com slash Bongino,
the Trump ad just absolutely devastating.
Hey,
just one quick note before we go.
I had a little thing last night at my town hall,
and I just want to tell you guys all to stay in the fight, please.
It was a valuable lesson for my daughter.
I brought my youngest daughter to show her that the do matters.
The talk is cheap, and that obviously applies to me too.
And we're having a thing in my town that's been dominated, sadly, by liberals.
I lived in a conservative town.
Somehow four people pretending to be conservatives got elected onto the town commission.
So it's four against one.
We have one real Republican left.
And I showed up last night, too, and let them have it.
Thought I was going to get thrown out one point by the police chief.
Didn't happen, which is good.
But I brought my kid, and I told her, you need to see that.
And I'm proud of all of you that are doing the same thing at your school boards and elsewhere.
We have to do, not just talk.
So I really appreciate the activism.
We're starting to wake up.
The sleeping giant's been awakened in America.
Hey, thanks for tuning in.
I'll see you a little bit later on the radio show.
And then I'll see you on the podcast tomorrow.
You just heard Dan Bongino.
