After decades of shaky hands caused by debilitating tremors,
Sunnybrook was the only hospital in Canada who could provide Andy with something special.
Three neurosurgeons, two scientists, one movement disorders coordinator,
58 answered questions, two focused ultrasound procedures,
one specially developed helmet, thousands of high-intensity focused ultrasound waves,
zero incisions, and that very same day, two steady hands. From innovation to
action, Sunnybrook is special. Learn more at sunnybrook.ca slash special.
Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host,
Dan Bongino. The kids have got to go back to school, folks. I'm very sorry.
The kids have got to go back to school.
There is risk.
We will never eliminate risk completely.
We have an eliminated risk from air travel, from car travel, from anything.
There will never be a time we live in a society with zero risk.
The kids have got to go back to school.
I've got that story for you today.
I've got some more data that's going to blow your mind
because the media, Pravda-like gaslighting,
is now totally out of control.
We're being lied to every day by the media.
Tune them out.
It's all lies.
I've got that, and I also want to get to this story
about what the McCloskeys did in defending themselves
and how they're being attacked now.

I would welcome in producer Joe, but unfortunately, we had some technical difficulties with Joe
this morning, who will probably join us in the middle of the show.
But welcome, Ms. Paula, to the Dan Bongino Show.
How are you today?
She's very good.
Okay.
So, you know, the show has a flow.
I need to welcome somebody to the show.
Ding, ding, ding.
We'll have to do that.
All right, let's get right to it.
Today's show brought to you by Friendsette.
Bravo Company wearing, I love their shirts, wearing their shirt today.
Bravo Company was started by a Marine veteran more than two decades ago.
Bravo Company Manufacturing, or BCM for short, builds a professional grade product built to combat standards.
BCM believes the same level of protection should be provided to every American, whether you're a private citizen or a professional. Bravo Company Manufacturing
makes the best rifles and firearms in the business. They are not a sporting arms company.
If you need a hunting rifle or something else, that's great. There are other companies that do
that. That's not Bravo. What do they make? They design, engineer, manufacture life-saving
equipment right here in America in Heartland, Wisconsin. BCM assumes that when a rifle leaves their shop, God forbid it has to be used in a life or death
situation by a citizen, a law enforcement officer, a soldier overseas. Quality is all that matters
and they know that has to function and function right. Every component of a BCM rifle is hand
assembled and tested by Americans right here to a life-saving standard. They put people before
their products. They know that this product can't fail. God forbid it's not just a paper target,
but someone coming to do you or your family harm.
These are the best rifles in the business.
I have two.
I put my name behind them.
They work.
They work well.
They function great.
I've never had a malfunction with mine.
Terrific.
Right on target every single time.

All right, let's go.
Now the ding ding,
I need my own bell,
gets me in the mood for the show every day.
So, if I may, may folks we had a uh
a tough moment last night paul and i and i i think i'm going to tell you a story here that
many of you can relate to i wish i wish you you couldn't it'd make me feel a lot better if you
couldn't relate to it but it was a long day yesterday as it is for many of you we were
sitting down getting ready to go to sleep,
and I noticed my wife was gone for a little while.
We had a little incident with my daughter.
You know, she's having a rough time.
She's home all day.
There's, you know, some parents are terrified
of the coronavirus in the neighborhood.
There's really very few kids to play with.
Even though we're in Florida,
a lot of things are shut down or have ridiculous constraints.
School, of course, has been shut down since March.
These are kids, ladies and gentlemen.
These are kids. You know, the way you impose a penalty on adults in prison is you put
them in solitary confinement. We have these kids in near solitary confinement in the house. They
can't get out. They need social interaction. They need to be around other kids. It's how they learn
their social intelligence. It's how they learn to mingle and mix with other people and to engage in socially
appropriate behavior. They need to be around other kids. So we noticed their daughter was having a
really rough time. She was just in here. I had to ask her to leave for this opening segment of the
show because I'm uncomfortable talking around her about it. But she said to my wife, I was
devastated. She said to my wife, my wife came in and told me when Paula sat her down in a room and said, you know, what's going
on? What's wrong? Why are you so sad? You know, she said, she said, you know, mommy, I play with
my dollies and then I don't know what else to do. Now, listen, I have enormous respect for teachers okay let me get that out of the way i mean that
they changed my life miss gilfeather god rest her soul miss shortino mr diorio in high school
really changed my life i remember them to this day taught me a lot about the world
a lot teachers are world. A lot.
Teachers are with your kids sometimes each day more than you're with them.
A good teacher can change their life.
But folks, it's time for the kids to go back to school.
I am very sorry to tell some of the teachers
that there will be risk.
There is risk in everything.
Paul and I have to go out.
We still have to mail stuff.
We still have to go outside.
Many of you
whether you work in sanitation
policing
whether you're in a supermarket
at the checkout counter
or stocking shelves
we all have to go out
the risk is not going away
even with a vaccine
there's still the risk for you
for living and working
in a society of fallible people
in a world we've been unable to perfect
and never will be the risk to you will never be zero. There will be new viruses. There will be
new outbreaks of influenza. There will be probably other coronaviruses that emerge. This is not the
first one. It won't be the last. The risk to you will never be zero. The kids have got to go back
to school. I am very sorry. We will not be able to make your risk zero. You can't make
mine zero. And I'm not asking you to. I live in a fallible world full of risk and trade-offs.
It is time to go back to school. I can't listen to my kid or anyone else's kid anymore. Say they
have to sit there all day crying as they have nothing to do. They have no friends, but they
have no socialization, losing a year of their education and watching them fall into a depression because a group
of people wants their risk to be zero when moving your risk to zero is not possible.
The world has trade-offs.
Now, listen, I get it.
I understand we should do everything in our power to protect you.
I get that.
I'm not suggesting you put yourself at risk
and die unnecessarily.
Stop making straw man arguments.
I'm simply suggesting to you
that we are dealing with trade-offs now.
There's no good answer.
There's only a less bad answer.
And it's transparently obvious
to anyone paying attention
that the less bad answer
of all the bad answers
is to send the kids back to school and learn to mitigate the risk.
The more and the worst and the worstest bad answer is to keep the kids out of school for
two years of their lives, sticking them in a deep depression, robbing them of the ability
to educate themselves in social interaction, not just educate themselves book-wise,
but educate themselves on how to deal with people in social
interactions because they have none.
Get back to school.
The kids have got to get back to school.
There's some people I even work with who disagree.
That's fine.
Disagree all you want, unless you have a better plan.
A better plan.
Do you have some kind of Avengersgers like superpower to wipe this thing
clean from society i'm sure you don't unless you have a better plan to explain to me what we're
going to do with millions of kids in the united states whose parents can't go back to work if
they don't go back to school not everybody can pay for a private education you want to stick
them in what solitary confinement in their house
for a disease as i discussed yesterday which presents close to zero risk for them
mommy i play with my dollies i don't know what to do with the rest of the day
doesn't know what to do she's eight she's eight. She's eight.
These teachers unions aren't helping.
Some of them, no offense to the teachers out there,
your unions are grotesque, many of them.
Horrible, horrible entities that don't give a damn about the kids.
Not all of them, but a lot of them.
Here's an article up at our website, Bongino.com.
This is fascinating.
The Los Angeles Teachers Union.
They want to connect school reopening to defunding the police and Medicare for all?
Read this article up at our show notes.
Bongino.com slash newsletter if you want to check them out.
Read this little gem.
They want to connect it to calls for defunding the police. They attack charter schools in their memo too.
Their plan for opening schools,
they take a shot at charter schools
and they're calling for defunding the police
in their study, dreaded air quotes,
on opening schools.
Don't worry, these teachers unions are in it for the kids.
It's disgusting. It's disgusting.
It's disgusting.
Explain to me again how, you know, the 16-year-old at the checkout counter
at Publix who's been working there from day one,
explain to me again why the risk to her is okay.
I know, we see her all the time.
The risk to her is fine.
The people in the post office, the sanitation workers, the cops,
they can take a risk, but no one else has to take a risk. We have to her is fine. The people in the post office, the sanitation workers, the cops, they can take a risk,
but no one else has to take a risk.
We have to take a risk.
Paul and I have to work.
I have to produce for my kids.
But you want the risk in this union,
you want the risk to your employees
to be zero, which is impossible.
Meaning you're not in it for the kids.
You're in it for you.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
This is tough medication, but it's necessary.
This is a real conversation in real time about not good and bad choices, bad and worst choices.
And the worst choice in the world is to cancel two years of a kid's life with no exit ramp.
We don't have a vaccine.
We've been forced to live with this plague.
What's your plan?
Because we can work on things, staggered entrance times,
staggered classroom times.
You can distance.
I thought you thought masks work.
They don't.
I'll get the, but if you, you know, wear a mask if,
if you're a teacher and you believe it works, it doesn't, but if it makes you feel better, wear one.
If you're not going to let the kids go back to school, these government tyrants shutting
these schools down, then give the parents the money to educate their kids at home or send them
to a private or a charter school. Is that not a fair deal? Oh, no. You attack charters, the L.A. Teachers Union.
You attack them in your memo about opening schools.
So just to be clear, the Teachers Union position is we're not going to teach your kids
and we're not going to let you pay to have your kids taught elsewhere either.
That's your position?
We're in it for the kids.
Really?
Because that kind of sounds like you're in it for you.
That kind of sounds like you're in it for you. That kind of sounds like that.
We're in it for the kids.
We won't teach your kids, and you won't teach them anywhere else either.
And by the way, they'll attack homeschoolers next.
Now, some of you may be saying, you don't understand the risk no no i do understand the risk i discussed
it on yesterday's show exhaustive research on corona type viruses and sars type viruses
and the risk to children which is close to zero zero goose egg. You don't believe me? Here's Dr. Scott Atlas, one of the few sane voices left
you can hear from in a media clip. He's from the Hoover Institution talking about this abomination
of suggesting we should keep kids out of school or mask them all day, by the way, which is nonsense, and how there's no science behind this at all.
This is a leftist, media-driven nonsense proposal
because why? I can't get it in their heads.
The only reason I can think is they don't want the economy to open up
and they know if your kids are home, you can't go back to work.
There's no other reason.
They have no science to suggest your kids should stay in solitary confinement at home and stick play four hours a day with dollies.
Listen to Scott Atlas.
Data is clear, whether it's from Canada, Switzerland, Sweden, the Netherlands, France, Spain, the United States, Asia, all over the world.
the United States, Asia, all over the world,
children do not have any serious disease.
Children almost never transmit the disease.
In fact, Switzerland is contemplating stopping even testing children because it's irrelevant.
This is data proven.
If you don't know this, then you shouldn't be commenting on the disease, frankly.
There is no serious risk of even getting the illness but
that's not even the point here. I want to go even further. By now we know who's at risk. K-12
teachers in the United States, half of them are under 41 years of age. They're not at risk. 82%
are under 55. If there is a handful, which there are some teachers in the high risk category
don't they know how to protect themselves with their so-called six foot spacing and mask rules
and if they're still afraid even if they don't want to do that then they can teach from home
fair well you know this is called problem solving You will not generate a zero risk scenario in schools ever,
ever. You will be at risk for SARS viruses, coronaviruses, influenza viruses.
The risk will never be zero. So can we just wipe that out, rational people listening?
That is not going to happen. That's in a fantasy land. So now that we're dealing with risk, we need to make proposals and propose rational,
reasonable measures to mitigate risk, correct? My prior line of work in the Secret Service,
I used to say all the time people ask me about it, we never, ever claim to the president or
elsewhere, your risk is zero here. It's not. We take security measures to lower the risk,
so it's almost insignificant,
but it's never zero. So if you believe in social distancing and you think masks work, again,
they don't. We can stagger times. We can have teachers who are at risk who are maybe 60 or
older. We can have them teach from home into the classroom rather than the other way around.
We can sanitize and disinfect commonly touched surfaces. These are called
solutions. You're not interested in that? No, no. It's a complicated problem. Yes,
all problems are complicated. That's why they're problems. Stop talking about this like it's black
or white. We send them to school, people be at risk. No kidding. No kidding, dunce.
We get that.
That's not the question.
It's not a black or white question.
Keep them home, no risk.
Send them risk.
That's ridiculous.
That's amateur hour, childlike nonsense.
The only question is, when we get them back to school,
how do we mitigate a lot of that risk and take some of it out of the equation?
Now, the media is not interested in that because Trump wants to open up the schools because people have to go back to work and their kids have to be kids and get educated and learn
things and learn social interaction.
The media doesn't want any of that.
You are witnessing in live time an agitprop, 100% media propaganda effort because they
can't stand some of these liberal media acts.
They can't stand this country.
They can't stand Trump.
And they can't stand any possible success in fighting this thing.
I want you to pay attention to this MSNBC segment.
Listen to the anchor.
They have pediatricians on and they ask
the pediatricians if their kids can go back to school. Listen to their response and watch the
response of the anchor who you can tell is so sorely disappointed he didn't get the result he
thought he was going to get. Check this out. Would you let your kids go back to school?
I will. My kids are looking forward to it. Yes. Period. Absolutely. Absolutely. As much as I can.
Without a hesitation. Without a hesitation. Yes. I have no concerns about sending my child to
school in the fall. I would let my kids go back to school. Dr. John Torres, NBC News.
They all said yes. Is his reaction not priceless folks check it out on youtube on our youtube
watch his face listen just fast forward to that point youtube.com slash bongino check it out
watch his face he's so disappointed he didn't get the answer he wanted from actual doctors
who actually take care of kids for For the liberals listening, that means pediatricians.
All of them, universal, on their own interview. Oh yeah, I'd send my kids back.
So let me get this straight. The actual doctors, remember, according to the media,
except for the actual media themselves, you're not allowed to comment on coronavirus if you're
not a doctor. Again, unless you're a member of the media who knows nothing about anything.
You've got a degree in journalism, which I feel bad for you that you
wasted your money, but whatever. That's a whole other topic. Very sorry you did that. But you can
comment because you know everything about everything. You know actually nothing about
nothing. But nobody else is allowed to comment. But then you get an actual doctor who treats
children, a pediatrician. You get, what, five of them or there's six of them on that who all
universally say in your own interview, oh, yeah, yeah, i'd send my kid back this is what they do health care for kids
and the guys like uh well they all said yes
it's because you're living through the greatest gas lighting episode we have ever seen in human
history the media will not stop
lying. Ladies and gentlemen, they are on the opposite side of the truth. They cannot, some
of these people, not all of them, cannot stand this country being led by Donald Trump. They can't
stand freedom. They can't stand liberty. They will lie. They will gaslight. They will do anything
to get you on the wrong side of right.
I want to go into,
let me get to my second sponsor here quick,
but I want to go to more of this.
This media gaslighting is ridiculous.
The numbers are out there for you.
You can see them yourself.
Find the truth. It is out there.
And I don't mean X-Files type stuff.
All right, folks,
today's show also brought to you
by our good friends at Echelon. Listen, across the country, a lot of us are staying home for
the greater good. I've been working out a lot in my house. And while we're learning how to become
homebodies with Echelon, it doesn't mean you have to sit still. Echelon has a huge lineup of fantastic,
unbelievably well-functioning connected fitness bikes. We love fitness mirrors and rowing machines.
We have the rowing machine and the bike.

All right.
Folks, it's hard to constantly report on the media because the role of the media is to do
the reporting themselves, is it not? Kind of defeats the purpose of the media, which is
supposed to give you facts so reasonable people can use facts to make reasoned, rational decisions
when what you're getting from the media are a litany of lies. This is a textbook on how to
propagandize a population. What have you been told by our media? Because
they're politically interested. These people are hacks. Their characters are grotesque.
You've been told what? That Florida's collapsing. Again, I covered it yesterday. I don't need to
hammer it home again. Florida's burning to the ground and New York is a huge success story.
the ground and New York is a huge success story. Why do they say that? Not because it's true. These media people and the talking heads they use like Andy Slavitt, who tweeted this absurdity on
Twitter, they only want you to believe that Democrats, because they're politically motivated,
have been a huge success story in the fight against the Wuhan virus from China.
And that Republicans have totally failed you, including Donald Trump,
despite the fact that none of that is actually true. Look at this tweet by the absolutely
dreadful Andy Slavitt, at LeA Slavitt on Twitter, who was a hack in the Obama administration.
Just a fraud and just a scam this guy's pulling is unbelievable. Here's an actual tweet from him.
COVID update, July 13th.
There are successful examples of taking on COVID-19. And there is one story like no others,
New York. Ladies and gentlemen, is this guy living on the planet Nebula or something?
Is that really a planet? Is he living in another cosmos in like M theory, string theory,
alternate universe stuff? Is he living
in a universe that's upside down? New York, according to this zero, Andy Slavitt, this
gaslighting, agitprop, agitator, New York is a success story? Now, again, you want the truth?
Because that's what I do here, the actual facts. Let's go seek out truth
from an actual journalist doing data. You know, when facts, science, liberals claim to love
science, right? They hate science. They'll tell you there's 7,622 genders. Let's go to Alex
Berenson, who's done actual reporting on this material.
So again, Slavitt, the Obama administration's former hack.
His theories of New York is a huge success story.
Berenson says, well, let's check this out.
Here's a live look at the five states with the most SARS-CoV-2 cases.
Two of these, total population 28 million have 48 000 covid deaths two others population 50 million
have 7 500 deaths true story can you guess which two the media love or which two have
republican governors ladies and gentlemen look at these numbers the hapless jennifer rubin
the spineless fake conservative at the Washington Post and Andy
Slavitt want you to believe New York is a success story. The death count, the body count in New York
is 32,444. The body count in New Jersey led by a liberal Democrat as well is 15,634. That's 48,000 people who perished in their success story.
And yet, keep this up here.
Everybody needs to see this.
Drill this into your mind.
Yet Florida and Texas, which we've been told is an abysmal failure burning to the ground
right now, Florida's had 4,277 in Texas, 3,278.
They both have bigger populations than New York.
Just to be clear, again, liberal, lying, intolerant, unscientific,
anti-civil liberties liberals using their media propagandist hacks
like Rubin, Slavitt, and others
who go out there and lie to you,
want you to believe New York and New Jersey
are the success stories despite a body count
closing in on 50,000.
And Florida and Texas have failed
despite both having larger populations, significantly larger,
with a death count of 7,500, one-sixth of how many perished in the Democrat-led states of
New York and New Jersey. Do you understand you are being lied to because these people have a pure,
disgusting, grotesque political agenda, not in any way aligned or attached to the truth?
It gets worse, folks. So let's just establish the lies we've discussed already.
New York is a success story. New York is actually
the worst failure story in the whole country with an abysmal 32,000 dead themselves in New York.
In New York, they are the worst example of failure. Second, the kids have got to stay out
of school. There is no evidence whatsoever that will make anybody safer.
You're making that up because Trump wants the kids back in school and so do the parents.
And you're on the other side of both.
Two lies.
Well, what's the third?
Folks, everybody's got to wear a mask, right?
You've heard this because the media told you, well, the mask, it's going to definitely stop the spread of the infection.
Really?
That's interesting because even some of the administration's own people said the opposite.
And that's interesting as well because the WHO, which liberals love, Joe Biden wants to get us back in the WHO despite failing repeatedly, looked at a bunch of others.
It's not a WHO study.
You may say, why are you citing the WHO if you say they're a failure?
Because it's not their study.
It's not a WHO study.
You may say, why are you citing the WHO if you say they're a failure?
Because it's not their study.
The WHO did a meta-analysis where you analyze other studies.
You study other studies.
And it's interesting, the WHO concluded themselves that when it comes to influenza and airborne respiratory diseases like that, the masks are ineffective.
You may say, well, Dan, that's one example.
And WHO is a terrible organization.
Now you're not wrong.
Let's look at some liberal media types when they hated masks before Trump and the administration put out the idea, you know, that they weren't crazy about masks.
So then the media is pro mask.
Now, remember the media, you understand what happened?
Before the president started questioning masks and not wearing one himself,
the media, they didn't like masks because they wanted to keep them for healthcare workers.
So their narrative was masks don't work.
Then Trump came out and suggested, you know, I don't think I need to wear a mask.
And then the media said, you got to wear a mask or you're all going to die.
It's not because it has anything to do with science.
It's because they're on the wrong side of right every single time.
But before they were on that side, they were on the other side.
Here's a Seattle Times piece.
I'm not kidding.
This piece is in the show notes.
Please go to the show notes and read this.
Again, Bongino.com slash newsletter.
You can sign up for the show notes.
It's our newsletter.
This is an actual article, folks.
Seattle Times.
Everyone wore masks during the 1918 flu pandemic. They were useless.
Eliza McGraw, Seattle
Times.
Well, it was, yeah, it was at the Washington
Post, too. But it's in this. I got it.
The link is to the Seattle Times.
I didn't make that Times. That's all.
I'm not going to make that up.
Okay.
It's on my article.
They were useless during the flu pandemic of 1918.
For the exact same reason, they're pretty much useless now if you are not ill and exhibiting
symptoms yourself.
You need more evidence? WHO study, Seattle Times, which cites interesting
data from 1918 showing how useless they were. How about this interesting study that was put
out for dentists? This is fascinating. Found this on surfing through social media yesterday for the show. This was on a website called Oral Health.
You know, like science
outlets. A guy
who wrote at me, science, that's not science.
It's an opinion. Really, the guy is a PhD
and MS and an, I don't know,
an FRCDC. That's a
lot of stuff. Guy's got a lot of
letters behind his name. Oh, he's got a
BDS too.
Oral Health. Why face masks don't work a revealing review not my ipad i didn't write the article the article is very long be in the show notes
strongly encourage you to read it i had a hard time picking one screen cap from the piece because
there were so many showing how useless these things are?
The government said you got to wear one.
So, you know, they got to wear government.
They're government idiots who know nothing.
That's why they're in government.
Here's the one I saw
that had the most profound takeaway from it.
I'll read this for you.
Between 2004 and 2016,
at least a dozen research or review articles
have been published on the inadequacies of face masks.
Yes, I read that right.
Oralhealth.com, check it out.
Be up in the show notes.
All agree that the poor facial fit
and limited filtration characteristics of masks
make them unable to prevent the wearer
from inhaling airborne particles.
Wait, what?
Can that be right?
I'm reading right from the article.
In their well-referenced 2011 article on respiratory protection for healthcare workers,
these two doctors concluded that, quote,
face masks will not protect against the inhalation of aerosols.
Following a literature review, these doctors stated, quote,
there is a lack of substantial evidence
to support claims that face masks
protect either patients or surgeons
from infectious contamination.
In the same year, this doctor noted
that randomized control trials of face masks
failed to prove their efficacy.
For liberals, that means they don't work.
But again, let's mandate that everybody go out and wear an object over your face that does
absolutely nothing because it makes people feel better. And again, if it makes you feel better
and it's a private business, I'm okay with it. I won't go in your business if I have to wear one.
I haven't left my house typically, but that's okay.
It's your business.
And I am a free market, liberty loving American.
You own a business.
You think masks work despite any data concluding that?
Nothing says that.
There's no data out there.
I've now over two days indicated to you
that these things are largely useless
unless you're really sick and exhibiting symptoms yourself,
whereas you shouldn't be out anyway. They don't work. But if it makes you comfortable, you invite me in your house or I
want to go to your business and you say, no one's allowed in without a face mask. I love Liberty and
yours too. I will happily put one on. I carry one in my back pocket. Some businesses, I have to go
in with a face mask. When I fly, I have to wear one. I don't sit there at the airport causing a big stink. I don't beat up
the gate agent or anything like that. I sit there quietly. What are you letting them out of there?
I put my mask on and I sit there and I'm okay. You do your thing. Despite the fact what you're
doing is absurd, I'm a free market liberty loving American. When the government gets involved that has the monopolistic use of force
and threatens to jail or fine you
for wearing an object on your face
that does nothing
to stop the transmission of this disease,
then I get really pissed off
and you should too.
What's next?
They're going to mandate you eat broccoli?
Why are you...
Just a serious question, by the way.
If the government's doing it for your health, despite no evidence they can...
None.
There is no evidence that these things work if you're not sick.
None.
Zero.
If that's true, and it's for your health, again, dreaded air quotes here,
why is the government... why is smoking allowed?
Why did, smoking, by the way, which we know,
we know causes lung cancer and epilepsy.
Why do we allow that?
Why do we, why do we, alcohol?
Why don't we mandate exercise?
No, no, it's a fair question, right? If the government is allowed to slowly
whittle away your liberty for your health, and interestingly enough, and mandate that you wear
a mask despite no science, there is real science that exercise will prolong your life and make you
healthy. Is there not? Does anyone dispute that? Why don't we mandate exercise? It's for your health, right? Why don't we ban smoking?
Why don't we ban alcohol?
Why don't we ban driving for people over 65 after 9 o'clock at night who have to wear glasses?
Maybe their eyesight's compromised. You know why?
Because we're a free country, and a free country is laden with risk.
Freedom comes with a risk, and the responsibility that's co-joined with risk. Freedom comes with a risk and the responsibility
that's co-joined with it.
Do you want to be free?
You want to be free of risk,
get a job in a jail cell
and you ask them to pay
and rent the jail cell.
You can be isolated from humanity
and pay for a sterilized
food production company
to deliver food by a drone through the window.
They can open up a window in the back.
You'll be free of any risk.
You also won't be free at all.
Facts have gone out the window.
You're not free to defend yourself either anymore.
I don't know if you knew that,
but especially if you live in St. Louis.
Let me get to my next sponsor.
But after that, did you know that?
You're not even allowed to defend yourself anymore
against the leftist mob because they need you silent.
They have to attack you at will.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are in a dangerous, dangerous place.
All right, we'll get back to that
and the McCloskey story in a second.
I want to move on from this Corona stuff
because it seriously can get depressing at times, but this is no time to back down from this fight.
All right. Today's show brought to you by our friends at LifeLock. Ladies and gentlemen,
these are turbulent times and the fraudsters are loving this. Sadly, they always take advantage
of tragedy. Cybersecurity researchers are warning people that cyber criminals are sending emails
that include political messages in the subject line in an effort to get you to install malware on your computer. Do you know that?
If some curious party clicks on the file attached to the email, it ends up installing a dangerous
Microsoft Windows malware known as TrickBot. You hadn't heard that, right? Big, big trouble.
It's important to understand how cyber crime and identity theft are affecting our lives.
Every day, we put our information at risk on the internet.
You could miss certain identity threats by just monitoring your credit.
Good thing there's LifeLock.
LifeLock detects a wide range of identity thefts, like your social security number,
for sale on the dark web, and other threats as well.
I get a text whenever my credit is checked.
It's a beautiful thing.
Luckily, the last year or two while we've had LifeLock, it's all been legit, but I had
my identity stolen.
It was a very big deal.
Cost me about a year of drama.
I had a shutdown on a credit card account I had.
It was a mess.
If LifeLock detects your information has been compromised, they will send you an alert.
Listen, no one can prevent all identity theft or monitor every transaction at all businesses,
but LifeLock can see threats

All right,
folks,
there's a larger plot out there.
The radical left hates this country.
They hate everything.
It stands for,
again,
I'm not talking about old Democrats.
I'm talking about the radical wing of their party.
That is slowly hijacking the once proud party of
John F. Kennedy that has descended into total madness.
Do you see this story about the McCloskeys in St. Louis?
For those of you who haven't heard this story, pay attention.
And as my grandmother used to say, pay attention good.
Washington Examiner, Missouri Attorney General slams St. Louis prosecutor McCloskey case
for politically motivated decisions.
What's going on here?
The McCloskeys were that couple you may have seen on television.
A violent mob of Black Lives Matter protesters decided to knock down their front gate on private property, barge into their home and threaten them.
The McCloskeys being in St. Louis, having probably witnessed in Missouri a lot of the rioting there, the burning down of homes, the attacking of innocent civilians, decided to exit their home and defend their property.
Mr. and Mrs. McCloskey left the home with firearms. They displayed those firearms and
warned those people on private property, threatening them that they were to leave.
There were no shots fired, thankfully, and the situation resolved itself when the violent mob of protesters that were threatening them left the property.
Now, you would think the McCloskeys would be celebrated for defending their homes and keeping the violence to zero.
Their house wasn't burned down, they weren't attacked, and they prevented from, from hurting them or hurting their family.
You would think they would be celebrated and applauded.
No,
no,
no,
no.
Kim Gardner,
the St.
Louis County city,
cities,
states,
the city attorney there,
who is a far left,
radical leftist has decided to be a good idea.
And Mr.
McCloskey was on Tucker Carlson last night and said that he's hearing,
he may be indicted.
Indicted for defending his home.
Keep in mind, nobody was killed.
No shots were fired.
Luckily, there was no violence at all because Mr. McCloskey stood up.
Kim Gardner is a disgrace to humankind.
She's a disgrace to civilized human beings that believe in law and order everywhere.
And Kim Gardner is epidemic of a larger problem.
It is a problem that we are seeing with the left right now.
It's their effort to silence you through intimidation and fascist type anti-free speech
tactics.
Before we go to that, I want to play this video.
This is the actual attorney general for all of Missouri. He was on the Shannon Bream show, excuse me. And he was asked about this case and this dreadful St. Louis prosecutor who was going after the McC has really expansive authority to protect their own lives, their home and their property.
And I think the story here to watch here is the local prosecutor, Kim Gardner.
Kim Gardner has an abysmal record in prosecuting violent crime, has recently released and been complicit in the release of dozens and dozens of inmates who've
been charged with violent crimes and has a record of making politically motivated decisions not
based on the law. So this is certainly something to watch. Folks, this is a very, very dangerous
development. What's going on here? What's their real plot? The radical far left. It has a couple
of parts. I'll go through them quickly. Number one,
they need to defund the police because they need to intimidate you. And if they defund the police,
the police who are that line, that hard wall between civilization and chaos, good police departments, that's what they do. When you defund the police and you remove that wall, the horde
comes to your door and the mob comes to your door and there's nothing you can do about it.
So you have to defund the police first. There's a reason they're doing this,
ladies and gentlemen. None of this is by chance. Liberals never do anything by chance. There's always an agenda. Get rid of the wall between chaos and civilization and that wall is the cops.
Get rid of them first. Secondly, disarm Americans. They can't let you defend yourself against the chaos the chaos has
to be frightening and the chaos won't be as frightening to you if you have the ability to
defend yourself they want you disarmed no second amendment no firearm no weapon no ability to
defend yourself at all if you were attacked or your property is burned down.
They don't want you to be able to defend your family, to defend yourself, or defend your
home.
They need you intimidated.
They need you silent.
And the only way to intimidate is to engage in asymmetric intimidation.
You can't intimidate someone that's bigger than you or has a weapon to defend himself
in a situation where you want to be
violent and he has or he or she has the chance to use violence to defend themselves they don't want
that they want asymmetric violence where they can intimidate you burn your property and attack you
and you do nothing in return so they have to get the police out of the way and make sure you are, in fact, defenseless.
If you dare to not be defenseless, however, don't worry.
They have a plan for that, including Kim Gardner.
If you say, well, I'm going to physically defend myself and fight back, either with a firearm or if you attack me, I will defend myself and my family. They're going to make sure through
their radical far left communist prosecutors that they've put in office in these cities,
that they prosecute you instead and use the legal system and put you in jail.
Ladies and gentlemen, a way to intimidate you into being quiet and to sit there in the corner
while the guy at the other side of the ring just beats the living snot out of you.
while the guy at the other side of the ring just beats the living snot out of you.
They need to destroy and decimate all resistance to the liberal mob.
It's the first step to subjugating a population and intimidating them into silence.
You can't intimidate people into silence that choose to fight back,
as we've learned throughout revolutions, throughout human history. You can't. The liberals understand that as the famous quote goes, an enemy is not vanquished
until he considers himself so. They need you to mentally consider yourself vanquished and
understand there's no off-ramp here.
I'm going to be attacked.
If I defend myself, I'm going to jail.
If I purchase a firearm to defend myself, I'm going to jail.
If I dare defend myself and fight back, I'm going to jail.
They understand that.
Why do you think these Antifa terrorists, the fascists in Antifa, why do you think they
show up with cameras?
They attack you and they attack you and they attack you
until you dare get out of your car and fight back.
And then they video it and they demand the police prosecute you.
Do you think they're stupid?
They're fascists.
They're terrorists.
They're anti-free speech, anti-civil liberties advocates
who use fascist tactics to destroy the republic.
These tactics have been tested.
They know exactly what they're doing.
And people like Kim Gardner, using communist tactics, play right along.
There'll be more of this, folks.
You've been warned.
You may say, Dan, what's the solution?
Well, on my social media accounts, on Parler and other places last night, I told you
the solution. You got to move away from it, folks. Again, I once believed we could fight in these
blue states and these blue cities. I'm very sorry to tell you that fight is over. I'm sorry.
You can't win that fight. The only solution, if you can, is to take you, your money,
your business, and your family, and go to a place where you're not fighting a losing battle.
I admire you for staying behind and fighting a good fight, and I'll support you if you do.
I don't mean to sound defeatist. I just love my audience, and I know you adore your family and friends.
And trying to fight back against the massive powers of a prosecutor like Kim Gardner,
who is determined to put you in jail, bankrupt you, and serve search warrants on your home
for daring to defend your own home against being burned down and your family from being attacked,
you can't win that fight.
It's asymmetric warfare.
You don't have the assets or the time.
Take your money, take your votes, take your support, and move to a state or a city or
a place that respects individual God-given rights and your right to be left alone by
violent mobs.
If the folks there want to continue to vote for chaos and destruction
and the chaos candidate and Joe Biden, then let them do that, but don't be part of it.
Eventually, eventually they'll hit rock bottom. I don't wish it on anyone. I don't wish evil,
poverty, crime on anyone, but eventually these places will realize the futility of the political decisions they made they'll have to and you'll have a renaissance but that renaissance won't
happen while you continue to support it through your tax dollars i'm very sorry you can fix it
but you got to get out of there all right speaking of that i want to move on i haven't covered the
2020 election but i've got a few stories here that are important.
2020 election update, including there will be damage to your wallet
if you vote in Joe Biden.
He is openly talking about it now.
Why you would think otherwise, to me, is perplexing.
He's openly talking.
Let's get to my last sponsor,
then I'm going to get to this story because it's important.

So again, folks, there's a genuine consequence to this. What's that?
What? He's there? Oh, good. Cool. Welcome back, producer Joe. Good to hear from you.
So there is a consequence to this 2020 election. There's been so much going on with Corona and the
gaslighting that we've been distracted over the past few days by those stories. But there is an
election coming up and it's important. And ladies and gentlemen, there will be consequences. There will be consequences if you choose the
absolutely hapless Joe Biden. If you're comfortable with those consequences, that's fine. That's your
choice. But I want you to understand there will be consequences. Hey, we still got rock bottom,
by the way, just so you understand that. Now let's go through this on the economic frontier
because Joe Biden has been open and honest about what he's he's not lying to you.
Wall Street Journal article about what's going to happen to the stock market, capital gains, taxes and your income taxes and your wallet if Joe Biden is elected.
James Freeman from the other day. This was actually from Friday. We've been so stacked with news. I haven't gotten to it yet.
Wall Street Journal, Biden's bigger government. The former vice president promises Obama-style taxes
and red tape plus Trump-style trade fights.
Listen, if you like higher taxes,
that's dumb,
but Biden is definitely your guy.
Joe B is your man if you want higher taxes.
If that's what you want, go for it.
Here's from the Wall Street Journal.
I'm going to go to the more complicated one first, cap gains,
because people don't understand.
Capital gains, that's only for rich people who invest money.
You think?
Not really.
Let's go to the piece.
So Joe Biden has already pledged to increase the capital gains tax.
President Trump cut it.
Capital gains are gains on your investments.
Just, I know a lot of you understand.
I don't mean to kind of,
I'm not trying to dumb the show down,
but you invest in the stock market.
There are long-term rates
if you hold the investment for, say, more than a year.
And then there are short-term rates.
If you buy a stock and sell it right away,
it's usually a higher rate.
Why?
Because they want to incentivize you to,
the US government wants to incentivize you,
this is the reasoning behind it, to invest for the long-term. They don't want you inize you. The U.S. government wants to incentivize you. This is the reasoning behind it,
to invest for the long term.
They don't want you in and out of the market.
They want you to invest in places,
businesses, real estate,
whatever it be for the long term
because they think it's more beneficial.
Fine, got it.
So the long-term capital gains rates
are typically higher.
He wants to hike your capital gains tax rate,
Joe Biden, back up to where it was before.
What does that mean, ladies and gentlemen? That means the stock market, Joe Biden, back up to where it was before. What does that mean,
ladies and gentlemen? That means the stock market by default, because more money will be coming out
of the stock market as stock transactions are taxed at a higher rate. The stock market will
likely go down a lot. Well, that doesn't affect me. I don't own any stocks yet. You have a pension
that's invested in stocks. Again, if you're comfortable with this, your pension going down,
your 401k going down and your stocks going down, that's okay. That's your call. It's dumb. It's wrong. Why you'd want
to make less money, I don't understand, but that's what Biden wants to do. That is going to affect
you in the real world. He's already pledged to do this. He's not kidding. And if they vote in
a Democrat Senate with a Democrat House and they wipe out the filibuster, it will happen.
If they vote in a Democrat Senate with a Democrat House and they wipe out the filibuster, it will happen.
It will happen.
Your 401k pension and other assets and equities you hold, they will be taxed at a higher rate, meaning there will be less money to buy those equities, meaning they will be worth less. of money buying stocks and investing in those funds will shrink because the government,
like a vampire, is going to stick their fangs in it and suck the blood out of it.
He has also pledged, chaos candidate Joe Biden, he's also pledged to increase your income
taxes by revoking the Trump tax cuts.
Now, you may be saying because you watch media outlets that lie to you all the time.
Well, those were just for the rich.
Were they really?
Because that's not exactly true.
As I've discussed before, the rich actually got the smallest percentage tax cuts in the
Trump tax cut plan.
The largest tax cuts went to the middle class.
There were basically three brackets
between the upper middle class and the lower middle class,
three tax brackets,
which most of the people watching, just by simple math,
you'll be in one of these brackets now.
So if Joe Biden's elected,
not only is your 401k going to take a dump,
but if you're in the, let's say, upper middle class,
forgive me for not having a more, you know,
sophisticated way to describe it, but that's what
it is. Your tax rate is going to go from 24 to 28 percent. If you're in, say, the middle middle
class, it's going to go from 22 to 25 under Biden. And if you're at the lower end of the middle class,
your tax rate is going to go from 12 to 15 percent. You like higher taxes. That's your guy.
Like higher taxes, that's your guy.
Vote Joey B, that's your man.
If that's what you like.
Why you would like that, I have no idea.
The government is a cesspool of inadequacy.
They haven't figured out how to spend the money they took from you years ago.
Outside of our military and courts, some of our courts even, which are failing us,
they can't manage to get anything right. But yeah, give them more of your money.
Good luck with that you've been warned again you won't hear that on the media
they'll hide a lot of that outside of conservative media outlets they're hiding the fact that joe
biden your wallet another quick campaign story i teased it yesterday i'm glad i got to it today because it's interesting
maybe it's only interesting to me because of my prior line of work i'm not sure so i always take
a chance with these types of stories but i saw this in the washington examiner president trump's
decided that one of the best ways to get these rallies back going again which he does very well
at this is a genius idea is to do them at airports the great great Paul Bedard, Washington Examiner. Power rallies. The answer for Trump is airport events.
Yes.
Yes, it is.
Why?
Again, forgive me if this just interests me,
having done this kind of stuff in the Secret Service,
but there's a couple reasons why airport rallies are terrific.
Number one, you can do a whole lot of them.
Paula, if this segment stinks, tell me halfway through.
I'm going to cut it off, all right?
You are my gauge.
Paula is my gauge of what's good.
She usually knows every time.
But really, I have such an interest in this
that sometimes I'm like, this is great.
More rallies.
You can do more of them.
Why?
Very simple.
Land at the airport.
Take off at the airport.
You don't have to jump in Marine One,
a helicopter, a motorcade.
You don't have to go to an event. You don't have to go anywhere else. The way helicopter, a motorcade. You don't have to go to an event.
You don't have to go anywhere else.
The way you do these events,
if you do presidential advance,
is say you're doing an event in whatever, Philadelphia.
That was the cover to my first book.
That was at the Philadelphia airport.
When I'm opening the door, you land at the airport.
You then jump in a motorcade,
usually a 10, 15 minute drive.
You go to an event.
You got to drive back.
You got to do the event.
If you land at the airport and you land right in front of the hangar, you can get right
back on the plane and take off.
You cut basically two hours off your trip.
And if you only have about 14, 15 hours today to campaign in a really heavy campaign cycle,
and you're making four or five stops and you cut out two hours at each stop.
Last time I checked on the math, that's about eight to 10 additional hours to travel to other stops. Brilliant. So we can do more of them, which is
excellent. Secondly, given the coronavirus scourge, we all know open air is better than closed off
environments. Again, we do science here, not media hysteria and hyperbole. We're not panic merchants.
Again, we do science here, not media hysteria and hyperbole.
We're not panic merchants.
Hangers have big bay doors you can open and get fresh air in there, where the risk of transmission from the coronavirus is significantly less than in an indoor recirculated air environment.
Double benefit.
More rallies, more fresh air.
Nice.
Third, logistics.
The logistics are super easy.
You don't need, say again, let's make the Philadelphia example.
You land in Philly.
You got to have an airport agent, an airport liaison from the staff, a staff advance.
You got to have another agent at the site, another agent for the motorcade.
You don't need any of that stuff. You only need an agent at the airport and a staff advance there.
You've now decreased your staff footprint by more than half,
meaning there are more agents and staff people to do other rallies elsewhere.
More rallies, more fresh air, more agents. This is the trifecta, trifecta of success.
No, there's more.
Let's go to the quadrifecta.
You can park there at the airport.
There's parking everywhere.
Airports are these big open spaces,
very easy to go there.
People don't have to complain about the parking.
You dump your car in a parking lot,
you get a little shuttle,
you go to the hangar, you get screened.
Very nice.
I'll do one more and I'll move on.
Airport advances are really easy for the Secret Service.
Why do you think that may be?
Because if we're, say, flying into an airport and going to a private house we've never been before, the Secret Service,
and no one's ever seen it before, then why would that be a disadvantage from a security perspective? Because we've never seen the house before. We have to go do it for
the first time. Folks, as a former agent myself, we have been to basically every airport in the
United States, probably close to 52 million times, maybe a little bit hyperbolic, a little less than
52 million, but close to it. We have every airport seriously probably big airports probably
five six hundred times smaller airports five ten twenty times maybe
everybody's already seen it we're familiar with it it's easy
nothing's easy but it's easier airport rallies is that okay is that is that okay
thank you she says excellent i always worry about those because i feel like it's too wonky poor rallies. Is that okay? Is that okay? Thank you. She says, excellent.
I always worry about those because I feel like it's too wonky.
One more election 2020 up.
Don't worry, Paul.
There's no story on this.
But I just saw this before I came on the air.
Former Governor John Sununu, or Chief of Staff, excuse me, his son's the governor now.
John Sununu won.
He made a great point on Fox.
Some positive, because I know the show has had a lot of like Debbie Downer moments today,
but I want to, you know, we're running out of time.
We got maybe one more segment here, but I want to leave you with some positive news
about the election.
Discuss the hangers.
We discussed Biden's tax increases.
There are two interest, three actually, I should say,
because I saw another article this morning
before I came on the air.
Three interesting data points
that could bode very well for Trump in the election.
We've heard all the evil news.
Trump is losing Texas, Arizona.
All right, everybody calm down. Panic merchants in the election. We've heard all the evil news. Trump is losing Texas, Arizona. All right, everybody calm down.
Panic merchants in the media again.
First, his polling amongst independents
in the last few weeks has gone up dramatically.
I saw in a John Solomon article, 13%.
Very good news.
Very good news.
We need independents.
I think it's because he's been relatively disciplined
and messaging the last few weeks, President Trump, and that's a great thing.
Second data point, which bodes well for us, voter registration in swing states.
Folks, you've heard there's a tsunami in swing states.
President Trump's going to get crushed.
Listen, I'm out of the prediction game.
I like data, though.
If that was the case, why is voter registration surging for democrat no for republicans
why is that happening so he's getting crushed according to the polls in swing states his
voter registration is surging for republicans in swing states i'm just asking questions again or
is this another media gaslighting thing like your kids can't go back to school or everyone's going to die. Just checking. Sorry, no, I'm not supposed to touch
my face in the year of Corona. I touch it more now after the mask thing. The third data point
is fascinating and candidly something I hadn't considered. I'd heard the voter registration
story before, but I hadn't heard this one yet. It was a genius point by Sununu.
hadn't heard this one yet. It was a genius point by Sununu. A lot of these swing states,
ladies and gentlemen, Michigan, New Hampshire, they have really big college towns.
You know, Ann Arbor and elsewhere. Down in North Carolina, that Charlotte, that corridor they have down there, That's where my father lives, down in North Carolina.
UNC, University of Michigan.
They have all these colleges in swing states.
But it's ironic.
The Democrats want to keep your kids out of school.
Those kids then go to those schools in those swing states and vote.
They'll now be voting in their home states, many of which aren't swing states.
Again, another example of the Democrats cutting off their nose to spite their faces.
They hate the schools being open because Donald Trump supports the schools being open. That's
the only reason. They may cost themselves the election. Fascinating, fascinating point by Sununu. I want to fit in
one more story, folks. Again, I'm trying to expand the show a little bit because I love being here
and it's important. There's so much going on. I'm like trying to jam 25 pounds of stuff into a
five-pound bag. You know Antifa, you know, the anti-free speech terror group, you know, the
fascists? Yeah, Antifa. They claim they stand for-free speech terror group, you know, the fascists. Yeah, Antifa.
They claim they stand for anti-fascism, which is really ridiculous because they're actually
a fascist group themselves.
Andy Ngo had an interesting tweet up about Antifa.
You want to you want to talk about disgusting, grotesque, filthy human beings.
Let's look at this terror group and what they're doing now.
So he's at at Mr. Andy Ngo on Twitter.
He had a fascinating tweet I saw this morning.
This is the latest scam Antifa's pulling to attack and try to hurt and wound people
because, you know, they believe in fascism and terrorism and that kind of thing.
This is a tweet by him.
He says, Antifa and BLM rioters descended on the Portland Police Union building once again
after days of attacking the federal courthouse.
Listen to this grotesquety,
folks. The Antifa assaults on police are twofold. First, they blind them with paint in order to get them to remove their police helmets. Then they launch metal ball bearings at them from slingshots.
Go to my YouTube. You can see the photos. This police officer covered in white
paint and a massive ball bearing in their hand. They shoot from slingshots to hurt, wound,
and potentially blind these police officers. Ladies and gentlemen, this is a terror group.
It's a fascist, anti-free speech terror group populated with snuggie-wearing snowflakes,
s'mores roasting, coward chumps who wouldn't do a damn thing when faced with a real
man. Did you see the video the other day? I don't have the rights to it, so I'm always afraid to use
some of them. There's a Twitter video of a guy, happens to be a minority, by the way, because
you know Antifa's in it for minorities to be there, along with Black Lives Matter, right? That's what
you heard. So Antifa decides, showing you what cowards and chumps these are, because they attack
using weapons and in groups because they're wusses.
They're wuss bags.
That's all they are.
They're not real men or real women.
They're fraud, fake, coward chumps.
So they make the mistake of walking up to a man's vehicle, again, who happens to be a minority, which matters to me because I thought they were in this to, you know, Black Lives Matter.
I heard all that kind of stuff, right?
They open his car door, try to pull him out.
Well, big mistake.
Man gets out of the car and me, you know, I enjoy the mixed martial arts stuff.
If you practice it or ever watch it, you can tell this man is trained.
He's either judo or wrestler or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. You could tell right away.
He doesn't have a sign on his chest. Hey, I practice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. You don't need
to see the sign. He grabs the Antifa kid and does a hip toss like out of a textbook.
There's no way he just made this up. In other words, the Antifa fascist
blanked with the wrong guy.
You know what I mean?
Opens the car door, goes after the kid, hip tosses his caboose, puts him on the ground, and the kid, like every Antifa fascist sissy you've ever met, is on the floor,
eh, eh, get off, get off, just like the punks they are every time.
The reason Antifa losers attack in packs
is because they have meaningless lives.
They live in a vacuum of stupidity.
They're cowards.
They're chumps.
They don't have a scintilla of dignity.
They only find meeting and attacking like wolves,
except they're not wolves.
They're like chihuahuas.
They're like little chihuahuas nipping at your ankles.
That's what they are.
And when you fight back and you hip toss them, they cry for mommy.
And then they ask the police to have you prosecuted.
And then they throw paint at the cops to get them to remove their helmets
so they can shoot ball bearings at their face and blind them
because that's what fascist terror groups do.
That's the slobs in Antifa.
Paul, I'm going to do one more. I got one more. I'm sorry,
because I've got a lot of content. I don't want to roll this over to one more.
One more quick thing, ladies and gentlemen. I warned you about the chaos in New York, did I not?
Look at this dreadful article in the New York Post. Be up in the show notes today.
New York Post, at least 17 people shot in New York City on Monday as gun violence continues to soar.
I told you this was happening. People are dying. People are being shot right now in New York City
because of the consequences of dreadful decisions of the communists running that city right now in New York City because of the consequences of dreadful decisions of the
communists running that city right now. Look at this screenshot from the New York Post piece.
At least 17 people were shot in New York City on Monday, a tally that would be considered high for
a weekend, but is astronomical for early in the week, law enforcement sources said.
No borough was spared from the gunplay,
but Brooklyn saw the most violence
with 10 shooting incidents
and a total of 12 victims, sources said.
Folks, something has to be done now.
Quick suggestion, and we're going to roll.
And I hope the Trump team takes this into account.
It is time to get federal law enforcement in there.
We don't need the National Guard right now.
Military assets are not the answer.
I told you what they want.
They want you to do that.
Federal law enforcement entities don't need any permission to operate in these big cities.
If these big cities like Chicago and New York are not going to clean up their own streets
and make them safe for their own citizens, then President Trump has to do it.
Get an FBI, DEA, IRS, Customs Secret Service task force in there tomorrow.
Start prosecuting people and perp walking anyone you can in front of the TV cameras. You want to
rip up the streets and riot? We're going to make sure you go to jail and we're going to let everybody see you go to jail on television. These task forces work. I was a part of one in New York
for financial crimes. You can shut this stuff down tomorrow. Nobody wants to go to federal prison.
Nobody. I'm not talking about the white collar prisons, the country clubs. I'm talking about
the real prisons, federal prisons. Nobody
wants to go there. You get a guy with ball bearings in Portland and wants to shoot at cops.
You start locking these people up, Antifa for a RICO, an organized crime statute, using them and
taking them all down. It's happening now. You're seeing federal law enforcement make some moves.
We need these task forces in these big cities. We need to do it. We need to let everybody see them do it.
We need to do it publicly
and we need to start handcuffing and perp walking people.
All right, folks, that was a loaded show.
I got to run.
I always appreciate you dealing with me
and the extra content.
There's so much going on.
I don't want to leave you at a disservice
and keep this information from you.
