The Dan Bongino Show - The Latest Liberal Giveaway Will Blow Your Mind (Ep 924)

Episode Date: February 26, 2019

In this episode I address the latest, radical, liberal nonsense proposal. This will blow your mind. I also address the one question to ask your liberal friends which will immediately shut them down. News Picks:  This one question turns socialists into capitalists.   The media wants you to believe that Trump is especially vulnerable to a Primary challenge.   Sleazy Adam Schiff has serious collusion issues.     “The Trump administration announced on that it will ban tax-payer funded facilities from promoting or performing abortions.”   Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez thinks the planet will be a disaster for your kids and cites “science.”   Copyright Dan Bongino.

get ready to hear the truth about america on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host dan bongino all right welcome to the damn bongino show producer joe how are you today well good morning vietnam there i said again we're broadcasting i know i knew you were going there i told you yesterday i can i can read your mind dude we've been together so long we're uh broadcasting from Ice Station Sean Hannity in Vietnam using the Hannity studio. We got a bunch of special guests here. We got Linda

from the Sean Hannity show, who most of you are familiar with, and my good buddy Blair as well. So this is going to be like an ensemble show. I had to start up, before I got going on the show, I had to start up a timer, because I'm so used to using our own studio with that little timer in the corner of our audition. How the heck am I going to keep my time straight? So I had to start a timer on the show, I had to start up a timer because I'm so used to using our own studio with that little timer in the corner of our audition. Yeah.

And I'm like, how the heck am I going to keep my time straight? So I had to start a timer on the phone. So listen, I got a lot to get to today. Today's going to be an interesting show because I've been up all night and I'm a little loopy. And for the first time in a long time, I actually took a sleeping pill. You know, I'll read you in on my program. And I woke up here. So just to tell you what's going on, folks,

we're at the opposite of Eastern Time. So when it's 6 in the morning there, it's 6 at night here. So I'm trying to stay on Eastern Time like Linda and the rest of the Hannity team because all my work, podcasts, and everything's on Eastern Time. So I go to sleep at 8 o'clock in the morning here, which is 8 o'clock at night in Florida. And I'm figuring I can rack out for at least like 4 or 5 hours and I'll be golden. So what

happens of course? Midnight 12.15 I get up and I am up. Up. I mean up like I had just run a Blair Cullen marathon. This guy's like a triathlete next to me. It's embarrassing. You think I'm all arthritic and falling apart because this guy next to me is like 4% body

fat and he runs marathons and stuff. So I am wired at 12.15 and I cannot go back to sleep. And you know folks, I am Mr. Anti-pharmaceuticals no matter what. I don't even take Advil for my disgustingly rotting joints. So I'm up and I'm like, I got this long day. I got to meet

producer Joe in the morning. I got all this stuff going on. I got to get some Z's. So I had an Ambien with me. So I had an Ambien with me. So I pop an Ambien, and man, I was out. Out. I mean, like, walking dead, zombie-like comatose, out. I get up at 5 in the morning, and I bounce over to Fox & Friends

over at the JW Marriott here in Hanoi. That's where the studio is. That's where Trump's staying, too, when he gets in. And I'm on with Kilmeade, Hegseth, and Ainsley Earhart. And Kilmeade's like, man, you're awful chipper this morning. No jet lag for you. I'm like, nah, brother, I'm good. I'm like, I closed the blinds.

I'm like, I took an ambient. I am wired. I'm ready to go MMA style like UFC 237 main event right now. So as you can tell, I'm a little geeked up. UFC 237 main event right now. So as you can tell, I'm a little geeked up. So, all right, let me get into the show. You're probably like, enough of your stories, right? Today's show brought to you by a little too chipper today.

Brought to you by our buddies at Bravo Company Manufacturing. Hey, you know, I'm a big supporter of the Second Amendment. These guys have the best rifles and pistols out there. I was just telling Linda, they were kind enough to send me two samples, a rifle and a pistol. I picked it up at the local gun shop I go to all the time. And the guy behind the counter, I kid you not, is like, man, you are really lucky to get these. These are really high-quality rifles. I'm not messing with you.

That is a true story. The guy at the gun shop listens to the show, so he knows I'm not messing around. Owning a rifle is an awesome responsibility. Building rifles is no different. Bravo Company Manufacturing was started in a garage 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. It's because BCM believes in the same level of protection that should be provided to every American, regardless if they're a private citizen or a professional.

This is not a sporting arms company. They design, engineer, and manufacture life-saving equipment. BCM assumes that when a rifle leaves their shop, it will be used in a life-or-death situation by a responsible citizen, law enforcement officer, or a soldier overseas. So quality matters to them. Every component of BCM rifles is hand-assembled and tested by Americans in Heartland, Wisconsin, to a life-saving standard. Learn more about BCM, Bravo Company Manufacturing.

We always knew they were radicals, big government socialists. I mean, that's always been just embedded in the genetic code of the Democrat Party. Yeah. But in order to obtain power, they've occasionally tried to moderate and bring it back to the center. We saw that in the second term, Bill Clinton. You know, he gave the speech, of course, at the State of the Union where he said the era of big government is over. So to maintain power, they realized that far-left radicalism and big government power really doesn't work. Well, that's gone out the window. They are following the same model they tried, as I said in a prior podcast earlier in the week, with the second term

Ronald Reagan, where they sent Walter Mondale up there running on this ridiculous platform. We're going to raise your taxes. And Mondale promptly got absolutely annihilated and smoked. He loses 49 states. So we're seeing that same mistake again. And the reason we're seeing that mistake is the anger at Reagan is the same as the anger at Trump now, where they think that the angrier they get and the more radical they get, the more they're going to appeal to their money people and their volunteers.

And they'll be the ones to get the nomination for 2020. I bring this up because I've been getting a ton of emails on this and i i've got it i know we're in vietnam and i want to get to some of that too and i'll give you some of the skinny on the ground but there's talk now by elizabeth warren and kamala harris about reparations ladies and gentlemen this is this is insane now Now, listen, there's no question that, obviously, human slavery in the United States is a unique stain on our country. The point absolutely stipulated amongst any sane person. We all get that. But reparations for people whose ancestors were slaves in the United States,

ladies and gentlemen, this is not justice by definition. Now, Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris have just come out now on the record talking about this, about reparations for both black Americans and Native Americans. Now, a couple of questions on this. Number one, before I get to the questions, keep this in mind. The very idea about justice is not that human beings aren't sinners and don't make catastrophic mistakes, like obviously the stain of slavery on our country was. But the idea of justice is that you will be held to account for your mistakes, not the mistakes of your family, not the mistakes of your ancestors, and in the case of reparation,

certainly not the mistakes of your ancestors' ancestors' ancestors. I wrote a note here to explain this very simply, Joe. You didn't do this. No. You didn't do this. And you're not going to insult me, my ethical or moral codeless, and I'm a sinner like anyone else. I get that.

I've said this on the show repeatedly. We all need redemption and saving, all of us. But I am not going to be held to account for a stain on human civilization that me and any other sane person is horrified by. What am I doing? I didn't do this. You didn't do it. That is not justice.

Justice is not making you pay for the moral crimes and crimes of other people. That is not what justice is. But getting past the moral and ethical dilemma that reparations create by making people pay for the crimes of others, which opens a Pandora's box, by the way, ladies and gentlemen, that where does it stop? Where do you go with that? Right. Listen, Joe, I mean, the Japanese were interned in World War II. This was a unique stain on our country, too.

Where does it stop? I mean, there are people who have had land confiscated. Where does it stop? Where does this, if you are going to force people to pay for the mistakes of ancestors, ancestors, ancestors, they never knew, have no connection to, and they have fully recognized the stain that this was in our country, where does it end? But beyond the moral or ethical dilemma this creates, folks, there is a real cost to this. And if you are going to run to be the President of the United States, Elizabeth Warren, or

Kamala Harris, and you are going to call for something like reparations, you have a responsibility to lay out exactly how this would work. So I want to hat tip a friend of mine on a listserv, let's just say, an email group who laid out some questions. And some of them are really good. Lay out how this would work, right? So question number one. Linda's looking at me like, where are you going with this?

Just give me that look. The little side eye. I'm like, listen. Yeah, like, which one? I'm sure you get those too. Who gets the money? No, it's a fair question, right? What's the criteria? Who gets the money and how much?

Folks, this is real money. This is real money you are going to have to work for. It will have to be taken out of Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid. Who gets the money? If you're wealthy, do you get the money? What if you're a Native American and you're worth a million dollars? Do you get $20,000 from a working class, say, white coal miner in West Virginia? Ladies and gentlemen, these people are running for president.

You have to put some meat on the bone. How is this going to work? You don't get to just make stuff. Oh, reparation sounds great. Yes, slavery was horrible. Yes, it was. It was a horrible stain on this country that we teach about so it never happens again. But you don't throw something out

there and then just say, oh yeah, who's going to pay for it? I don't know. Who pays for it? Even Chewbacca's trying to figure it out. Did you hear that? You can hear Joe's drops. Glenda's laughing, Joe. I'm like, what was that?

Did you hear Joe? I don't even have to see Joe. I know when he's going to like throw some. Joe, that is an excellent impersonation. Yeah, he does do good impersonations. A little too good. But I know, sometimes he throws me off. I don't even realize it's him.

How much are they going to get? $20,000? $20,000? $50,000? Again, is it dependent on your income? You're running for president. You have to put some meat on the boat. You can't just say that without laying out exactly how this is going to go down. Question number two.

Is the money dependent on what percentage African-American or Native American you are? Listen, ladies and gentlemen, this is a fair question. What if you take a, is there going to be a DNA test? Is it just going to be anybody at any point can say, I mean, think about it. What if you're, you know, if you're from Jamaica or you happen to be black, but you have no ties whatsoever. You're your ancestors to, you know, this epic stain that was slavery in the United States in our early years. Right, right. Do you get reparations?

Joe, is it not a fair question? Yeah, it's one I didn't even think of. Well, these questions are from a very smart person on this who thought this through and said, listen, if they're going to debate this, I want to know exactly how it's going to work so we know what we're debating. Again, does it involve a DNA test? Do you want to give your DNA? Do you have to?

If you're 50% Native American and 50% white, is your check less than someone else's? Fair question. Here's another one. Now, I'd expect some entrepreneurial media type, now that this has been proposed for a major presidential election, will ask these questions. What if your ancestors came here after 1865, where there was no formal slavery after the Civil War? Right? I mean, if the reparations are for the damage done by human slavery, then if you were not, in fact, here before 1865, do you get the same check as someone else?

Ladies and gentlemen, these are questions that have to be asked. This involves real money for real people that work for it. Are we paying people who are wealthy? Are we only paying people who are poor? How are we measuring it? Are they taking some kind of a DNA test? Is it just anybody can claim the money anytime? They're fair questions. Give us an answer so we know if your policy is anybody who comes in who happens to be black or Native American and says they are and can claim the money fine, but let's debate that. Another question. If you're, if you happen to be African American and Native American, how does that work? Are you going to get two checks? How does that work?

Who's paying that? Finally, and this was a good one. Listen, slavery was a unique stain in our history because we are a benevolent, good country. And I love this country and everything it stands for. And it was a mistake. But it is not a unique stain in global history. Matter of fact, tragically, human slavery was the rule, was not the exception.

If your ancestors happened to be slaves in a different country other than the United States and you came here, are you getting that money too? Ladies and gentlemen, these are real questions for a really tragic portion of our history that require real answers because you're looking at an entitlement program proposed by people running for President of the United States

that you think the Green New Deal was going to cost a lot of money? The check for this would be extraordinary. You have a responsibility to put some meat on the bone and tell us exactly what you're talking about. Now, Kamala Harris has had some real issues getting to the core of what she's talking about. Kamala Harris likes to throw things out there. She was in that CNN, was it her town hall at CNN with Jake Tapper? And she was on the air and she was talking about getting rid of your private insurance.

And she just threw it out there like it was no big deal. She was talking about, like, you know, hey, let me go stop in a local bodega for a cup of coffee. Remember that one, Joe? She's on the air, like, yeah, we're going to just, you know, healthcare. You know, we've all got insurance here, right? You have insurance, right? I believe I do. Yeah, I think you do.

I know I have insurance, but imagine coming in tomorrow and going, hey, you've got to call some government bureaucrat who works for Kamala Harris to get whatever. You're like one of your ribs taken out or something. I don't know what the hell you're doing. Like of all the medical procedures. Is that even a real medical procedure? Players look at me like, I don't think they do that. They take ribs out.

I don't know. I got a floater down there. So I may have to get that removed. I actually do have to have a surgery. So I have to, you see, look at this. I got this fatty tumor on my arm and it's crazy. The joke on this show, if you ever listen, is it becomes like the Dan Bongino medical malady out, right, Joe?

Because I'm always complaining. Are you a hypochondriac? No, no, no. I'm just so banged up. You sound like a hypochondriac. Everything is going wrong. No, I swear. I am just a total train wreck.

Both fall into pieces. Right. Labrador retriever. Joe, I'm like complaining about something the audience so once in a while like someone will email me because i hope i give him my email so i read it and they'll be like dude enough with your darn medical board tired of it enough but some people like i get some sympathy for some people so i love your feedback though folks don't take it the wrong way the one thing that you will get from people when you talk about all the

different things that are wrong with you is all their solutions yeah you know what sometimes it helps though they right they have a lot of solutions out there i have the greatest audience so ever i have one quick story folks when i had i have really bad shoulder problems right so i i was complaining one day and i get an email from this guy and he's like listen i literally wrote the book on stem cells it's called the stem cell revolution he's like, listen, I literally wrote the book on stem cells. It's called The Stem Cell Revolution. He's like, I'm a doctor out in LA and I can help you. And that dude, Dr. Berman, hooked me up.

Those stem cells saved my butt. Now, I ground it down again because I'm a maniac and I won't stop doing the Brazilian jujitsu. So he's like, bro, I'm not like a miracle worker. Like, I fix your shoulder and you go out there and you get the suplex by a Russian guy named Boris in your Brazilian jiu-jitsu class. And you're wondering why your shoulder, like I can't fix your brain. Like, don't be a moron.

So having an audience like that, they did, he did help me. So I'm going to go back out there and do my shoulder again with my stem cells, which is good. They give you a little lipo in the back. So I told him, doc, you need a little extra, you know, you could donate that to charity or something. He's like, no, no, I'm good good we got about an ounce or something yeah take a couple pounds it's all right that hurt no no they numb you up so folks how it works with stem cells

they take a little cannula they they numb you up in the back with like some lidocaine and they take out your fat he centrifuges it he gets your stem cells you get an iv and then he injects it right in the joint and like six weeks later i i felt like gold really listen I don't know how it works I'm not a doctor all I know is my shoulder was rotting to death and I was I couldn't even sleep at night and for two years I've been fine but now it's hurting again because I keep doing the jujitsu stuff and listen I feel you I had to pick Blair up off the airport floor it wasn't't pretty. I mean, it wasn't good. Blair's like Jack, though. So, folks, Blair, I work with Lyndon Blair. Blair is like Mr. Ultra Triathlon guy.

And he's pretty, how old are you anyway? 40? Yeah, so you're four years younger than me. But I remember we had dinner in New York and I told you at 40 it all falls apart. So you live in dog years after 40. So when you hit 40, like every year of weightlifting is seven years of accumulated dog years on your body. I tell you, this podcast is really uplifting. This is the greatest podcast ever.

I'm loving this. This is like we got four people on this show right now. This is fantastic. I love it. All right, listen. Getting back to this thing where the Democrats never want to talk about cost. Joe, play that cut of Kamala Harris. This is her talking about the cost of the Green New Deal and how basically costs don't really matter at all.

No worries, folks. You cast yourself on the campaign trail as a truth seller. You say we need to tell truths. What do you say or tell me if you think this is fair, that if you talk to Democratic voters, they're hungry and they want ideas. And so you'll hear things like the Green New Deal. You hear things like Medicare for all. You hear things like whether it's taxes, you'll hear things. At what point do you say that's our North Star, but we have to be realists? There's no question we have to be practical. But being practical also recognizes that climate change is an existential threat to us as human beings. Being practical recognizes that greenhouse gas emissions are threatening our air and

threatening the planet and that it is well within our capacity as human beings to change our behaviors in a way that we can reduce its effects. That's practical. Can we afford it? Of course we can afford it. Two and a half, three trillion dollars a year for Medicare for all by some studies. I don't, depending on which portions of the Green New Deal you pick to do first, that's money.

You know what the Republicans are going to say, tax and spend liberals, pie in the sky. One of the things that I admire and respect is the measurement that is captured in three letters, ROI. What's the return on the investment? People in the private sector understand this really well. It's not about a cost. It's about an investment. And then the question should be, is it worth the cost in terms of the investment potential?

Are we going to get back more than we put in? So when Mayor Bloomberg, Amy Klobuchar, some of your potential fellow Democrats say, no, it's too much, it's too ambitious. It's too expensive. You think they're wrong. I look forward to that debate on the debate stage. I look forward to it very much. Oh, so do I. Do I look forward to that debate? So she said, notice how she just casually glosses over the contradictory language she uses in that in the same soundbite. This is this. Remember, I keep I always tell you about Bill Clinton when he used to golf. He'd be golfing with a guy, and then the guy would hit a really bad shot. And then he'd hit a great shot, and Clinton would go, same guy, same guy.

So we would take notes in the golf cart. We were bored in the Secret Service about how many times Clinton would say, same guy, same guy. This is the same lady. In one sentence, he says, you know, know listen costs don't really matter it's about return on investment what listen i i went to business i never ever and ever talk about my education because i hate people who do that look at me i've got a business to me usually that means you're a moron because you have to tell people how smart you are but in this case i only tell you i went

to business school not to like impress anybody, but because this isn't even like accounting 707. This is like kindergarten 101. Return on investment requires a cost. Let me give you a simple example for the liberals out there having a really difficult time with this here. Let's put this together. Joe, have you ever had an investment advisor? You go to a guy, financial guy.

Linda, you got a financial guy. Everybody's got a financial guy, right? I got a guy. You got a guy. Everybody's got a guy. I got a guy. He's got a guy. We got a guy.

When you're from Philly, they got a guy for everything. We got lots of guys. Yeah, everybody's got a guy. You got a guy for everything from a hoagie down the block or a sub. Oh, hoagie in the house, Bungino. I know. I'm using the Philly talk. In New York, it's a sub.

So just out of a, you know, that's an ode to Linda. Very impressive. So everybody's got a guy. But when you go to a guy for an investment like that, does the guy ever say to you, hey, tell you what, Joe, we are going to make this big investment, whatever it is. I see GE stock is moving today. We're going to do it.

Everything is great. This is terrific. But it's going to cost you nothing. Have you ever heard that in your life? No. Just throw it in. No, okay. Was it not a trick question, right?

No. And not setting Joe up? Of course not. You have never, any investment involves a cost. This is, oh, it's so frustrating. I don't, I debate these, talking about these topics. I mean it. Because I love my audience to death.

Like, I respect your time, and I don't ever want to waste it on, like, the topic stuff. And sometimes I sit there and I don't ever want to waste it on the topic stuff. And sometimes I sit there and I wrestle with this. Do I even talk about this stupid, how stupid this is? But I feel like if I don't, then you don't know what's going on, and you don't have the tools to go at it with the left. She says in one thing it's about a return on investment. An investment return is all about the cost of the left. She says in one thing, it's about a return on investment. An investment return is all

about the cost of the investment. Hurdle rates, opportunity costs. You know what a hurdle rate is? A hurdle rate in just basic... Again, I don't want to talk down. I know a lot of you are very smart and know what that is. But an investment in say, whatever, Joe's T-shirt company, if he wants to get new T-shirts.

If Joe can invest in a government bond for say 4 or 5% or a secure investment vehicle where he knows he's going to get 4 or 5%, a blue chip bond, Joe is not going to invest in a new t-shirt line that only gets three. His hurdle rate is 5% because that's what he can get by investing his money and doing nothing. Does that make sense, Joe? Yeah. Like these are basic business concepts that you

would think somebody running for president of the United States would have at least a secondary or tertiary grasp on. Of course, there's a cost. What is wrong with you? That's what a hurdle rate, that's what that is. What's our hurdle rate? What level of return do we need on our cost, our money, our inputs to make this investment? She glosses over this completely, and then she talks about ROI, and when the guy mentions it's going to be $3 trillion for Medicare, she goes, well, the return on investment. What return on investment?

What is she doing? Folks, listen. I get a lot of people like... I get a lot of... They like your jobs here. I get a lot of people, you of people love Medicare. That's fine. And I understand you planned your life around it and I've said many times... I know I'm going to get a ton of emails

on this. I get it. I have a grandmother on Medicare. You did not ask for the program. The government took your money and if you are 55 and older we have an obligation because we basically have screwed you over to take care of you. I get that. I get it. It's a bro.

But here's the thing. Understanding that. Period. Full stop. The program is broke. There's no money. Listen to me. There's no money.

There is no money. Do you understand? It reminds me of, like, what was it, Rocky V, where he gives power of attorney to the lawyer. And Adrian's like, there's no money. There's no money rock. There's no, there's no money. The return on investment on Medicare was like negative 65,000. You put in money. It was not enough. I'm not blaming you, please. If you're a senior, I am not blaming you. I'm not advocating for taking anything away from you.

You guys and ladies out there served. You served in World War II, and your government made you promises, and we are the government. It's ours. And it screwed you over. We have an obligation to take care of you. But after that, it's over. There's no money.

Return on investment. Medicare is broke. It is bankrupt. Social Security is bankrupt. It is full of a bunch of IOUs where the government took its own money and left itself an IOU. It basically took money from its right pocket, spent it, and put in its left pocket a note that says, I owe myself trillions of dollars. There's no money, folks. The program is bankrupt. Independent, nonpolitical actuaries who look at Social Security and Medicare know there's no money.

There is no money. We have to accept that if we're going to fix the problem. I understand I'm going to get emails. It's cool. That's why I leave email away. I read them. I love them. Some of you are going to go nuclear at me.

That's cool, too, because every time I talk about this, it's fine. I appreciate your feedback, even the negative stuff. I just want you to accept two points. Yes, you were screwed over, and yes, we should take care of you. Point number two, there is no money. And pretending and papering over that fact and pretending it doesn't exist is doing nobody any favors at all. And this is exactly what Harris just did.

Kamala Harris said, well, you know, I think that was CNN. Forgive me, I don't remember who exactly was doing the interview. But finally, some journalism, right? I mean, we never see this, right? And the reporter there asks, well, this Medicare for All component alone of the Green New Deal is going to be $3 trillion a year. Folks, you understand our entire federal budget is $4 trillion? And we're running trillion-dollar deficits by year? You're talking about doubling the amount

of money we're spending per year backed by tax revenue. You understand what that means, right? Doubling means that we're required to double your taxes to pay for it now, and we're still in debt. I'm just asking you to be mathematically honest with yourselves. There is no money. It's not going to happen. It's the fetch for Mean Girls. Fetch is not going to happen. Regina George, Gretchen tried to make fetch happen forever. Fetch is not going to happen. It's not. This is the one time Regina George is right. Fetch, do you know what they should have thrown in Mean Girls? The Green New Deal.

I would love to go back to Mean Girls 2 and insert that dubbed in there. The Green New Deal is not going to happen, Gretchen. Just like Fetch. Stop trying to make Fetch happen. Dude, we need that cut. I got to get that. Yeah, we're going to have to get that. I'll get it. I know.

I've said it so many times. You know what's going to happen. We'll get $10,000. Don't even bother because I know you'll get so many emails today about it. Right? Every time, like the Milton Friedman one, you know who you are, that guy in my audience. I said, Joe, we need the Milton Friedman thing. The next day, boom, like clockwork was in there.

All right. I got a lot more to get. So today's show also brought to you by our buddies at BrickHouse Nutrition. You know, I'm a big fan of BrickHouse. I actually brought some foundation with me. It is the finest, finest nutrition supplement out there. I've had Brickhouse with me from the beginning. Now, here's the thing with foundation.

A lot of you have taken creatine before, but have you taken a creatine ATP blend? It's like having two extra gas tanks in the gym. Creatine's like having one extra gas tank. You know, like you have that Jeep and you have a little gas on the back. Creatine plus ATP is like having two extra gas tanks in the gym. Now, you may say to yourself, I'm not sure that stuff works. Listen, all I ask is you take the Dan Bongino mirror test, right? That's how well this stuff works.

This is one of those stories I always debate. Do I get to this last? Because there's potential here for me to go on a rant that could last forever. And I always like to keep the show in under an hour. But so let me just get to this one now because this is good. I was going to hold it to the end, but it could go on so long I might melt the microphone cord. So here we go. Adam Schiff, you know my buddy, Sleazeball, Slimebag, Shifty Schiff. Shifty! One of the most dangerous. Yeah, Shifty.

But, you know, this guy is just the captain of the Sleaze Brigade. He keeps on, you know, he will not let collusion go. He just, I mean, he knows it's a joke. He knows it's a hoax. It's a farce. It's a scam. Schiff's not dumb. But he keeps going on and on and on with this hoax. Now, I did an appearance on

Fox & Friends yesterday morning, and Schiff came up. And I brought up the fact that, ladies and gentlemen, Adam Schiff has his own collusion problems that are not a hoax. The Russian collusion thing, if you're a regular listener to my show, you know it's a total scam. It's a fairy tale. It's made up. It's an

Aesop's fable. It's garbage, right? Now, the collusion with Adam Schiff, though, is real. It's legit. Now, I want to play... Now, I got Lindy here. Sean uses this all the time, this cut. But this is a real call.

It's not a joke, by the way. Adam Schiff a while ago. Was this about a year ago, you think, Linda? This Russia thing? You guys have been using this a lot. I mean, I love it. It's the greatest cut ever. It's the funniest thing ever.

Some of you may not have heard, but even if you have, this is worth another. It's about eight minutes, so I'm only going to play like a minute. But I'm going to play the best minute of all. Olga Buzla. A little shout minute of all. Olga Buzla. Little shout out to Olga. What kind of idiot gets caught by Olga Buzla? You didn't notice something was wrong there? Really, I could say

it's a family-friendly show. I was going to say something, but I realized that. Someone did this to me once when I was on the TS, the telephone switchboard. I was a young cop, and they mess with you. So a young cop. And, you know, they mess with you. So a guy calls and let's just say, like, they're like, I'm looking for a police officer, Haywood. Yeah, most of you who know the joke know what the last name was. I can't say it because kids listen to the show.

But let's just say when you went over to the PA and said, I'm looking for Haywood, you do this to me. Yeah, it was pretty embarrassing. Now, how, I didn't catch on back then. Yeah, it was pretty embarrassing. Now, I didn't catch on back then, but I'm pretty sure if a Russian called me and said that they had evidence of Donald Trump engaging in activities, let's say, with Olga Buzova, I would ask a question like, Olga Buzova, can this possibly be real? So this is Schiff getting prank called. He doesn't know it's a prank. He thinks this is legit by two Russian hoaxsters and actively trying to engage.

He thinks these are real Russians to collude to get dirt on Donald Trump. Play that cut. Hi, all right, I'm going to put Mr. Schiff on the phone, and then I guess are you going to transfer him to Mr. Paruby? Yes, of course. Great, thank you. Hi, how are you? Hello, Mr. Schiff, thank you for your time.

Thank you, Chairman, I appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. I know that you work for investigation regarding Trump and Russian government. Yes. We know some important information about that. And that is documented as well in materials you want to provide to us? Yes. Could I explain you where we are? Yes, of course. But, you know, again, I would just caution that our Russian friends may be listening to the conversation, so I wouldn't share anything over the phone that you don't want them to hear. No, I don't think that it will impact on our investigation. Yes. Well, please, go ahead then.

In November 2013, Mr. Trump visited Moscow. He visited competition Miss Universe universe and there he met with the russian journalist and celebrity xenia sochak i'm sorry can you explain that again while he was in moscow in november 2013 he met with a journalist and well she's poor journalist but anyway uh she became famous because of uh putin is her god Okay, Putin is her godfather, okay. She's also known as a person who provides girls for escort for oligarchs, and she met with Trump and she brought him one hour Russian girl, celebrity, Olga Buzova, who's also known as a person

with a strange reputation. Olga, and how do you spell her name? Olga Buzova. What kind of an idiot? The best part is he says that. He spells her name and he goes, Olga Buzova. Like, who gets taken by that? Olga Buzova.

At least produce like a, at least when they did like the Papadopoulos setup, the Russian they bring was Olga Vinogradova. Like, that was the name that made more sense. Olga Vinogradova. Olga Buzova. And this numbskull I did get. And I loved that oneova. Like, that was the name that made more sense. Olga Vinaigredova. Olga Buzva. And this numbskull, like, did get. And I love that one part. Yeah, he's poor.

She's a poor journalist. Like, he knows it. Feeding into, like, the whole, like, fake news. Like, you think this guy would catch on? She's a poor journalist. And she bring one-hour Russian girl, Olga Buzva. And I love the way he, like, these Russian pranksters. I don't know who these guys are, but.

And let's just say she has a poor reputation. this idiot like never catches on at all this thing goes on by the way folks for eight minutes so this is this is shift he's keep in mind he thinks he's actively colluding with real russians he doesn't realize he's getting smoked up here the whole time now that's old news i just played that for a little comic relief to show you what a sleazeball shift is but the newer news on this is there's a great piece in the Washington Examiner today. I have up in the show notes at Bongino.com. Please read them. The articles are really good today, including one by Matt Palumbo at Bongino.com

that's crushing it right now. What was I going to say? Oh, yeah, the one question to ask socialists. So hopefully I'll get to that in a minute. But check out the show notes. There's an article in the Examiner that Schiff has a real problem here, folks. He met at this Aspen conference out in Colorado while the whole hearing was going on. He met with Glenn Simpson.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a big deal. I said it on Fox & Friends yesterday morning that you have to understand, Simpson is the producer at Fusion GPS of this entire dirty dossier that's used the entire time to spy on the Trump team and filters its way into the FISA court as a weaponized document, political document, to spy on the Trump team. He met with him at this conference. Now, you know, his shifts people, I'm not even going to say in his defense,

because you can't believe anything coming out of their people's mouths. They're such slime bags. But they're saying, oh, well, it was just a casual meeting. This is like everything with meet you this is like everything with you ever notice like everything with them is always oh it was just a mistake remember like loretta lynch on the tarmac with clinton like oh it was just a mistake meaning like this is why like joe and i barely ever leave the house because if you're a republican and this quote mistake happens right you're done can you can Can you imagine sitting there one day,

and me and Sean Hannity were meeting with someone who produced an oppo thing on Obama that was used to spy on the Obama team? Oh, my God. That picture would be on the front page of every newspaper. But because Adam Schiff did it, he gets a complete get-out-of-jail-free card. Folks, this guy is a slimebag.

He needs to get off that committee. He's the chairman now. He should have no oversight role in this whatsoever, and he needs to recuse himself until he can fully explain and account for why he was meeting with the person who produced the dossier, used to spy on Trump, that he's investigating. This guy has already colluded and attempted to collude with Russians. I just played for you the tape.

No one's denying, by the way, that he met with Glenn Simpson. No one's denying that happened. That actually happened. Yeah, but he said when he met with him, it was just casual, casual chat. Casual? Like you didn't realize? It's casual. You don't believe this, do you?

Well, of course. It's out of shift. Very, very. I mean, you know, he's wearing his salmon pants on the golf course. You know what's scary with your Philly accent? Is I am so out of New York. Like, I've been out of New York for almost 20 years. It's not a Philly accent.

That's the problem. It's that if I were to hear that now, I've lost my New York edge. I would think it was a New York accent. It is a New York accent. Basically, my accent is, it's a bastardized version of both. It's like. Because it's like they're married and they hate each other and they can't get divorced. It's like Yorkadelphia.

Trapped in my mouth, you know, in a vicious way. This Philly New York. Because sometimes when I'm listening to Hannity and you turn your mic on on the radio show, I'm like, gosh, she's such a New Yorker. But I'm thinking, I know you're not from New York. It's like a Philly thing. Well, the problem is I've been in New York for so long. How long have you been in New Yorker, but I'm thinking I know you're not from New York. It's like a Philly thing. The problem is I've been in New York for so long. How long have you been in New York? 15 years.

So the issue is that I have this New York accent, but then you say hoagie or phone or home, and I have that weird O thing that only people in Philadelphia have. That's a Philly thing? That's a Baltimore thing too. Let me ask you something about

Baltimore, right, Joe? You can't even say Baltimore. There's no T. There is no T amongst Native Marylanders. It's Balmer, right? B-A-L-M-E-R. Right? Balmer, right?

As soon as Linda said that, I went, bing, bing, bing. I got it. Ew, hon. Yeah. It's terrible. It's terrible. In Philly,

does that Rocky statue drive them crazy? No, we're obsessed with it. It is. Rocky is my hero. My brother just went to the museum. It's the art museum, right? Yeah, it's the Philadelphia Museum of Art. And I noticed instead of keeping it at the top, a couple years ago, they moved it down

to the bottom. And someone said to me, because the art museum hates it, that the fact that it's this prestigious art museum and all everybody cares about is the Rocky statue. Yeah, well, they need to get over it. Because everything that happens in Philly happens because of that statue. Everybody goes there. Somebody who comes from nothing from Philly. I'm telling you right now, the streets of Kensington and South Philly,

I was just there a couple weekends ago. It's the best thing ever. They have like row homes like they have in the Rocky movies. I'm from a row home. Really? Of course. I used to live above a bar on Myrtle Avenue. There you go.

Keep it real, folks. Keep it classy. Keep it real. Remember that Chris Rock segment? Keep it real. I can't play that on this show. Oh, God, no. We'll be thrown off the air. That's not kid-friendly.

Keep it real. Oh, that thing was great. Oh, where do I go next? I've got two stories, three stories here to go, and I've only got like 20 something minutes So let me hit this one First let's go to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez I know

I know I know 50-50 to feedback I'm just telling you Can we just call her Cortez She doesn't deserve to have her whole name She's become a total train wreck And I think the Democrats are getting rid

Now she's attacking Feinstein. Like Feinstein, like another far-left liberal from California because of that interaction Feinstein had with these kids where apparently Senator Feinstein wasn't accommodating enough to a bunch of kids who showed up and asked about the Green New Deal. But there's a problem with Ocasio-Cortez. We've already shown that she doesn't really know much about economics and other stuff. And as I've said, and I think I've been fair, I ran for office, almost won, almost won, doesn't matter.

I lost. She won her race. Great. Congratulations. But now you have to actually know stuff. She doesn't know stuff. So she came out. I have this story up from the Daily Wire up today.

Here's a quote. She was doing one of these, you know, Ocasio-Cortez, like my story things, whatever whatever on Instagram or Facebook live. I don't know what she was doing. And she said, quote, our planet is going to hit disaster if we don't turn the ship around. And so it's basically like, this is a direct quote. I'm not adding likes. And so it's basically like there's a scientific consensus that the lives of children are going to be very difficult. No, there is no scientific consensus on that at all. And the only reason I wanted to bring this up is because folks, this has been done before. And when I say done before, I mean the apocalyptic naysayers.

This is the oldest thing in the books. It's like Nostradamus. If you're familiar with the work of Malthus or Paul Ehrlichlich the population bomb guy do you understand like people frauds like uh representative cortez have for decades if not centuries now been saying oh humankind is coming to an end humankind is coming to an end there is no evidence of that at all global when you look at the global population the percentage of people working for a dollar a day or less that's gone down dramatically when you look at the the the death from disease in the world, it's gone down dramatically. When you look at the people starving to death, that's gone down dramatically. When you look at

countries around the world, GDP, per capita GDP, it's gone up dramatically. There is no evidence, facts, or data whatsoever to support the assertion that the lives of your children are going to be worse than they are now. We have technological revolutions on the horizon, whether it's deep learning AI, whether it's material science, 3D printing, whether it's breakthroughs in Alzheimer's and cancer research. We just saw that report from Israel where there may be some breakthrough on cancer. We'll see. You know, I'm always kind of skeptical. But there is no evidence at all that that is true. She is becoming another Malthus.

but there is no evidence at all that that is true. She is becoming another Malthus. Now Malthus, Malthus is the original human population is going to cause everybody to starve and we're all going to die guy. Matter of fact, they even have a name. They're called Malthusians. Now that was taken on by Paul Ehrlich in a book he wrote decades ago called

The Population Bomb. And I don't want to bore you to that, but this is important because this is just Ocasio-Cortez is doing the same thing they did. The mistake here is that the human population is going to grow geometrically while the food supply is only going to grow arithmetically. It basically means the human population is going to grow by factors of 10 while the food supply will only double. So we'll outstrip our food supply and we're all going to starve. Ladies and gentlemen, none of that has happened. None of that.

Matter of fact, the biggest problem in the United States with food, Joe, is what? Obesity. It's too much. It's not too little food. And it's because these naysayers, Malthus and Ehrlich, there's two things they missed on this. They never took into account that human ingenuity was going to find a way to decrease the amount of land and increase

the amount of crops through total factor productivity. We don't even farm in as much land as we used to when the human population was half of what it was, and we're all eating too much and dying from it. Because we figured out ways through farm management, watering, seed technology to feed everybody so much

that we're dying of eating too much secondly what these idiots didn't figure out is that they're eventually there's an asymptote you eventually are going to reach in human population a point where people become so wealthy where you don't need to have nine kids because three of them are going to die because the medical technology isn't good you're going to need need them to your farm on your farm. Human beings don't need that anymore. I love children. I have two of my own, but human beings now are not basically just labor units for people living on farms.

Your kids are your kids. You can have them because you want to, not because you need them to survive. If you lived in an ag society 200 years ago, never any kids and you reached 50 and your spouse died, you were dead. You were on your own. That was it. It was over, Johnny. Yeah. That was it.

You were done. That is not what's happening anymore. And Ocasio-Cortez is playing into this same Malthusian discredited Paul Ehrlich garbage nonsense that the planet can't handle this. We're all going to starve. Everybody's going to die. The ground can't take it. The sky all going to starve. Everybody's going to die. The ground can't take it. The sky can't take it. Everything's going to be... Remember, dude, oh, dude, we need this cut too. Somebody please out there, I'd love my audience,

send me the Ghostbusters cut. I know you have. It's raining, the dogs and cats, remember that thing where he's losing it in front of the guy when it's the end of the world? Dogs and cats are going to be friends or whatever he's talking about at the end. That's the greatest... I know I always get them wrong. My pop culture stuff is terrible, but this has been when it's the end of the world? Dogs and cats are going to be friends or whatever he's talking about. That's the greatest. I know I always get them wrong. My pop culture stuff is terrible. But this has been done before. We've been down this road.

Paul Ehrlich and Malthus are completely discredited. There is no evidence what she's saying is true, that the planet is somehow incapable of handling the population we have now. Zero. Like, less than zero evidence. It is all crap. She's making it up,

and she's embarrassing herself again whoo depressed i get a little upset yeah i know she got a new apartment did she was it it was expensive yeah that's where i thought you were going with all this no what apartment well i would think if you were going green you would take up a smaller footprint what did she luxury joint she got a little two-bedroom staying in her quote-unquote hood. Where, in New York? In the Bronx. And she got this two-bedroom with her and her quote-unquote beau. A beau.

I don't know who calls their boyfriend a beau. Is that a new thing? Is that for the kids? I don't know. Kids today. Anywho, all that to say, she got this appointment, and she did an Instagram from it. I guess people are doing their reconnaissance now,

and they're going to where she has her address. Nobody sees her. Like, who is she? We don't know who this woman is. She lives here. So then they're like, she's like, I moved. Okay. And like, I don't have to like publish my address

because people are trying to kill me. They want to kill the Democrat. Is it a playhouse? Like, is it nice? I think it's just like, I mean, listen, when you go from a one bedroom to a two bedroom in New York, everybody knows it's a big deal. Yeah.

Oh yeah. It's a really big deal. So she's clearly paying more money and I think she should just give that money back to her poor neighbors. No, no. That's her money. No, no. It's not her money.

It's we all share money, right? She's a socialist. Share her money. But the funny thing is I covered on yesterday's show that when it comes to the taxpayers paying her staff, she's like, I'm going to pay them $52,000 a year. Everybody, I'm going to redistribute everybody's income, which is ironic because think about it, right? You've been doing this, what, 15 years, you said?

Have you really been in this business that long? Put yourself in her staff's shoes, right? That's a real nice thing to say when you're paying with taxpayer money, right? But it's not her money. But how do you feel if you're a staffer on AOC staff and you've been at this 15, 20 years working your butt off, you've been on ledge committees. Finally, you're some chief of staff or whatever, and you're getting paid like someone who just came out of the internship. I mean, come on, listen, I don't know about what was your starting salary? I remember my 23,000. So I23,800. So was mine. I don't remember.

It was $23,000. So I don't know if it was $800, but it was $23,000. And I got checks from the NYPD. And I think we got paid every two weeks. I'm trying to do. And I think my check was like $580 every two weeks. And I lived in a $300 a month apartment. Could barely pay the bills.

My apartment was, it started out at $750, went up to $1,000 a month. Ate Rice Krispies every day. Oh, man. It was not, dude, like legit. You don't live in New York anymore, though. You bounced. I just moved. Yeah.

I just moved. We can't give it. This is unlike Ocasio-Cortez. I can't tell you. When they give this hatting show, these liberals will come hunt you down. They'll come kill me. They're like legit dangerous. They are.

All right. What else am I going to do? Oh, oh, this story. I said this before. I don't want to blow it. It's our own website, right?. I said this before. I don't want to blow it. It's our own website, right?

But I got to promote our stuff. So my buddy, Matt Palumbo, who is the resident fact checker. One more thing about Matt. So Matt, this lunatic, Seth Abramson on Twitter, who's losing his mind now that the collusion fairy tales falling apart.

This guy is allegedly some professor somewhere. Yeah. Joe, no, I bring him up a lot, but he went after us on Twitter. He's like, buy these books about the Russia hoax. And they're all liberal books that are all like a lot. But he went after us on Twitter. He's like, buy these books about the Russia hoax,

and they're all liberal books that are all like Fire and Fury or whatever and other books. And he's like, and don't buy these books, Greg Jarrett and Dan Bongino. And he says, these books are full of misinformation. So he gets ratioed to death. Like, people just destroy him on Twitter. And they're like, you realize Bongino footnoted it with left-leaning sources, right?

Like the New York Times. Just read the book, folks. Matter of fact, don't even read the book. Just realize Bongino footnoted it with left-leaning sources, right? Like the New York Times. Just read the book, folks. Matter of fact, don't even read the book. Just go to the footnotes. It's all CNN, New York Times, Washington. We did that intentionally because we knew lunatics like Seth Abramson would try to discredit the book later. Now, keep in mind, he's never read the book. I bring that up in terms of Matt and some of his writing because I DM Matt, and I'm like,

Matt, I'm in Vietnam. I got so much going on right now. I'm like, I don't have time to go after this lunatic today, but you know I like a good Twitter fight. So I had to outsource my trolling. So I said, Matt, just go after this maniac. So, of course, he posted to Abramson. He's like, please show us where the misinformation is. I'll take just one thing.

Just give us one page of where we're wrong. And, of course, utter, complete, total crickets, radio sounds, because he doesn't have anything. Matt's good at that. He's like the resident fact checker. So he did this piece. It's a really good one, by the way. It is the – let me pull it up on my phone.

The Internet service here is killer, by the way. It's so good. It's better than my house sometimes. So the piece is under I debunk this section at the website, Bongino.com, and it's titled, This One Question Turns Socialists into Capitalists. And it's great.

So he lays it out. Obviously, the question is, are you willing to pay for this or are you willing to pay more yourself for these programs? So he gives the two programs that are really popular right now amongst these liberals and stuff, one of them being Medicare for All. And of course, this thing polls 70% amongst these liberals that support this Medicare for All, or 70%, excuse me, among just general folks who all support Medicare for all. But when you ask people if they support Medicare for all

and you include the price and the tax cuts, all of a sudden support drops dramatically. Only 34% still favor Medicare for all. So again, this goes back to, I'm kind of wrapping up the show. This will be the last segment here. Tying into the beginning when we talked about everything from the reparations to Kamala Harris' support of the Green New Deal, how everybody likes to talk about what they're willing to give away,

but they never like to talk about where the money's going to come from. You know, Milton Friedman, one of the greatest lines ever, he said, you know, the big joke about government spending is you think your neighbor's paying for it, but your neighbor thinks the same thing, right? Like you think your neighbors, but your neighbor thinks you're, you're all, but it's you like, dude, you're paying for it. So it's funny with this Medicare for all that when you, we pin people down and you tell them the taxes, it's going to go, it's going to cost basically a doubling of your tax load. Now, all of a sudden a support gets cut

in half and Matt has all these citations in there. Now, here's another one. Paid family. This is a popular one now. Things, you know, limousine liberals like Bernie Sanders. We've been absolutely crushing on Twitter. That video clip we did on Friday's show. No video this week because we're in Vietnam, but we'll be back next week on video. Joe, the video clip we put up just destroying bernie sanders and his three

homes oh yeah that thing is at like 700 000 views on twitter right now so that bernie he's a total front so bernie likes to talk about every other major country in the world that's family leave yeah and they're all broke but he doesn't mention that either so this is another one of those things that when you actually cite people the cost he never mentions the cost of paid family leave. Here's Matt. He says, and if he never mentions the cost of a program, he could have success in advancing it. That's what they do.

But according to the Washington Times, support falls even more drastically than for Medicare for All once the cost of paid family leave is included. At $450 a year in higher taxes every year, the minimum price, folks, we're being generous here because we're not liberals and we don't exaggerate. The minimum price for a small-scale federal program,

fewer than half of Americans would support paid family leave when they find out, even at the low end, how much it would cost. Actual costs would likely run much higher. The Heritage Foundation estimates that a 12-week leave program with bennies equal to 45% of pay would cost the typical household $570 in taxes of year.

For full wage benefits, the cost soars to $1,300. When everybody, when you, yeah, that's right. That's big dough. That's big dough. You know, we don't all have Bernie Sanders money in his three houses and his lake house. Bernie, when you finally include that, the Cato Institute found that even less people supported, only 21%. Remember, Bernie, you know, we don't all have your lake home,

your Burlington, Vermont home, and your row home in D.C. Someone told me he drives like a nice fancy car, too. The guy's a complete fraud. He doesn't want to tell you what it costs because he's messing with you, because he's a big-time socialist who just wants... And don't let this guy off the hook. Do not let this guy off the hook one bit, ladies and gentlemen.

This guy, regarding socialism, he's now trying to run away a little bit from what's happening with Maduro in Venezuela now that the shots have been fired by these maniac socialists down there in the Venezuelan regime. Do not let any of these clowns off the hook. You supported socialism. You own it.

You're an accomplice to its death and destruction. Tattoo it on their foreheads. Do not let them escape this at all. Oh, that's a different kind of socialism. No, it's the real socialism, the bullets kind. That's the only socialism out there, you mutts. Don't let them get away from it at all. It's true.

Tattoo it on them. They supported socialism. They need to own it.
