All America all the time.
Sit down, buckle up, and get ready for the Dan Bongino show.
You know, I know I say it a lot, but I don't think I say it often enough.
You all in the chat in the Bongino Army out there, you always exceed my expectations.
Haggis and Whiskey in the chat, I don't know, 30 seconds ago, you can scroll back in your chat if you want to look yourself, you hear live with us.
Whatever happened to National Manday.
Holy Moses, like, I didn't even remember that.
And it's my show.
It's the show's eponymously named.
It's called the Dan Bongino show because I'm Dan Bongino.
And I didn't even remember that.
That's incredible.
Do you even remember that?
That was the tank top show.
It was a joke about National Mandate.
How in Hades did you remember that?
You guys and ladies are the best.
Dan Bonino said.
There you go.
It's green.
It looks like, again, it's vomiting.
And The Exorcist, Reagan.
Remember that?
The scariest movie I ever saw.
Yeah, logo to remember.
There's like a director's cut that's even worse.
Folks, if you're looking for bad news, today's not that show.
There is some bad news we cover.
Told you last week there was Mr. Apocalypse.
The AI is going to kill us all.
We covered it.
We did our job, right?
That's our job to get you good news, bad news.
and kind of find out what is good, what's bad, and where there's a happy middle ground.
Yesterday was such an incredible litany of incredible Ws for the Trump administration,
objectively good Ws.
I'm not talking about like his hair look good or anything like that.
I'm talking about numbers and facts that I can't repeat this enough.
I don't understand why Republican voter enthusiasm is not through the roof right now.
I don't understand.
I'm going to start off and I'll show you today.
Real numbers, not my opinion.
They're not my opinion.
They're just facts.
I don't understand the Republicans.
Like, we don't have a message to around.
No, you don't have a message to around.
Do your freaking homework.
You'll see what I mean coming up in a second.
I mean bangers yesterday.
And I'm not talking to.
about little things either.
Like we cut the federal regulations on water pipe diameter.
No, that's not what happened.
We have an unbelievable message.
I'm going to help out the Republicans running for office.
Pay attention.
Take notes.
Got a notebook in front of me.

Hey, also today's show brought to you by Sundays for Dogs.
I have the pickiest dog on planet Earth.
Lucy, she's a golden doodle.
Do any of you have a golden doodle?
She won't eat anything.
It's been a huge problem.
The dog won't touch anything.
However, that's why we're,
when Sundays for dogs said, hey, we think we can fix your problem with your dog.
They did.
More good news we are what we eat.
So are our doggies.
A long, healthy, active life starts with clean, real food, nutrition every day.
That's one reason I'm a huge fan of Sundays for dogs, but doesn't matter what I think.
Matters what Lucy thinks.
Sundays for dogs is different.

Let's get this party started right, as they said in the 1980s song,
the house music song.
if you remember that on, what was it, Hot 97 in New York,
although I may be aging myself if you're a New York City resident.
Folks, this kind of sounds like a big deal, hence the title for today's show.
This is what came out yesterday.
Now, before you put this up, Justin, before you put this up,
I'm going to ask a question because I practice what I preach.
Sometimes just throwing things at people as an assertion,
they block it out because they're liberals and they want bad news
and they want to think the world's collapsing and we're all going to
die. So I'm going to ask a question. If this were Barack Obama or if this were President Joe Biden
and you saw this series of headlines, I'm just asking the question, would you be excited or not?
Fair question, correct? Let's go with headline number one. And this was just in the last couple
days. Reuters, just a big pro-Trump outlet. Reuters is not known for their pro-Trump
headlines. U.S. poverty rate dips to lowest on record, Census Bureau says, look at the date.
It's kind of important. September 16th, 2026. So who is the president of September 16th,
2026? Donald Trump. He is a Democrat. No, Republican.
So just this alone, wouldn't you like to be the president?
I'm just asking, wouldn't you like to be the president when he, quote,
U.S. poverty rate dips to the lowest on record?
I thought everything was terrible.
I thought the doomers and the pillars told you nothing is happening.
We're all going to die.
Teach these Republicans a lesson.
What lesson are you trying to teach him?
We want the poverty rate higher?
What would be the one lesson you're trying to teach him?
Think of how amazing it would be.
Wow.
I'm getting a call right now.
Yeah.
This is like the rare time on a live where I don't know what to do.
Do it?
I can't take a...
Yeah, can we cut the commercial?
Okay.
It's leaving a voicemail.
Okay.
I think you'd probably figure that out.
Yeah, I got to take a break a second.
Folks, I'm really sorry.
I don't mean to screw up the show, but I have to take this.
This is like 10 minutes later.
I was given permission to tell you it was the president, who I loved to death.
And folks, have we ever stopped a live show?
Justin, you've been here the longest.
He's not here today.
No, I don't think we have.
If the president, no, not intentionally.
Right, right.
Maybe tech meltdowns.
So the president gave me.
permission. And he also wanted me to pass a message. I'm not fudging the numbers.
How much he loves this audience, you guys. I would not dare speak for the president if he didn't
personally ask me to tell you that. He did. So what was it? Like a 10 minute break or something
like that? We had a very long conversation about some great stuff. And we were talking about,
It's crazy.
Like we were just talking about the message.
So I just want to make sure you see this segment again.
How Republicans running in the midterms and voters out there too.
We have an amazing portfolio.
It's freaking Christmas time with stocking stuffers overflowing the stocking of good information to talk about.
What message could you want in the midterms?
This guy is the freaking goat.
he loves you, man.
He loves you guys and ladies out there.
He has me to say that.
So I'm passing on it.
Wouldn't dare speak from otherwise.
Here's what I'm talking about.
This stuff sounds like a big deal.
If this was Barack Obama,
there would be like a knighting.
You know when they dropped the sword on the shoulder?
Here we go.
Here's number one.
I can go back to Reuters.
Because, you know, we obviously had to take a little break there.
If you missed it, this is why you got to join the live show,
not just for the comment of the day,
but stuff like this happens.
happens. And man, talk about a lifting shift. U.S. poverty rate dips to lowest on record,
Census Bureau says, okay, we already covered that in the first five minutes, but sounds like a BFD,
a big deal. If I'm the president and the U.S. poverty is quote the lowest on record,
this is from freaking Reuters. They don't even like the boss. I'm out there. People with
palm fronds are like this. We've got enough of them down here. You want some
palm fronds come to florida that's not it that's not it there's more it's like the sham wow
wait there's more here was this true the other day not only is your economy on fire right now
motoring along your streets are the safest they've ever been i don't care if i had a role in it
or not it doesn't matter it's the president's leadership he picked the people he enacted the plan
FBI reports record decrease in violent crime.
Violent crime plummets across the country.
Killings and other violent crimes dropped sharply in 2025.
2025 had biggest violent crime drop in 90 years.
If you alone ran on this, if you alone ran on this, you're doing just peachy,
no less the lowest poverty rate.
And then this, I thought we were all worried about the border, the citizenry.
The border was chaotic and open.
It was a complete show rhymes with hit under Joe Biden.
President Trump comes into office.
And now we have, look at this, September 16th, 2026.
That sounds like, what is today's day?
Is that yesterday?
That just sounds like it just happened.
Trump's DHS hit 16 straight months with zero releases at the border.
That sounds like a big freaking deal to me, man.
What are Republicans running for office complaining about?
You should be kissing this guy's ass.
I'm not kidding.
I don't understand what, I don't understand what the problem is.
I really don't.
I'm not trying to be a tool about it.
I don't understand what the issue is.
Joe Biden, during his disastrous presidency,
the Afghanistan majority, the open border,
freaking 9% inflation.
had not seen since the Jimmy Carter staggflation era.
Joe Biden didn't do that bad in the midterms.
Why?
Because some Democrats were like full steam ahead, damn the freaking torpedoes.
They showed up and voted no matter what.
I don't understand the apathy on our side for a record that is like,
here was Joe Biden on the evil scale.
Here's Donald Trump on like the good side angel scale.
And our people aren't excited.
Man, I don't know, folks.
is like, I'm a little, I'm a little perplexed about the whole thing.
You want this person in charge instead?
Now, we were told by the left wing media.
Do you guys remember this?
Remember during the 2020 election when we righteously,
righteously questioned a mass mail-in ballot COVID-un unprecedented electoral campaign
where we've never seen mass ballots on this scale.
And we all said, hey, man, that doesn't sound like it's going to be that secure.
You had every right to ask those questions.
What would we call?
Anyone remember?
Andrew, pop quiz.
We were all called election deniers.
Remember that?
You remember that?
Now, of course now, the left-wing media,
when Democrats say the exact same thing but have no actual evidence.
We have evidence mail-in balloting is not that secure.
Statistics show the rejection rates can be double what they are for in-person voting.
Where did we get that statistics from?
Yes, the New York Times.
You mean the New York Post?
No, I mean the New York Times.
We know that.
So we had every right to question it.
Kamala Harris can't question the election in the midterms.
Why not, fellas and ladies?
Because it hasn't happened yet.
But she's already saying they're going to cheat.
Oh, there it is.
There's the article in the New York Times.
error and fraud at issue is absentee voting rise you can you could read it yourself in the new york times
you can read it yourself Kamala harris is already claiming there's going to be cheating
the election hasn't even happened yet so clearly the left wing media is going to call her an election
deny right no you want these people in charge or lowest poverty rate lowest crime rates zero
admittances of illegals at the border well who do you want charge i've never been to the border
But I've never been to Europe.
You're not the Europe czar.
You're the freaking border czar.
Here's Kamala Harris.
Already claiming there's going to be cheating.
Left wing media, they'll say nothing.
Guaranteed.
Check this out.
Hey, everybody.
So today is National Voter Registration Day.
And I have two requests of you.
Number one, please check your voter registration status.
I know you're pretty sure that you are registered,
but you know they've been cheating out there.
They've been purging voter rolls.
So please check your voter registration.
and then number two, text everyone on your group chat
and let them know, I asked you to ask them
to check their voter registration status.
We gotta win. There's so much at stake,
and we gotta be too big to rig.
They're gonna try and cheat, let's be too big to rake.
I thought you're not allowed to say that.
What we're not told, by the way, I know it's saying refresh
is weird, because if you refresh, you're seeing me live,
but everyone in the chat, can you please do me a favor
if you're watching live, put it in the way.
watching live. Put in all caps. Refresh. We're live. So the others know to hit the refresh button.
I know we had to take a break for the president, but president calls. I'm answering the phone.
I think you all understand. You don't send the president to voicemail. Okay. That's not the way this works.
I thought you're not allowed to say that. Thank you. Refresh we are in the chat.
Is she not an election denier? Is she not an election denier? Is she not an election denier?
I'm not folks, we're just asking questions, man.
All right, take a quick break why everybody refreshes here.
And I want to get back since I had to read this story twice,
because this is even more good news.
I told you that your choices are Kamala Harris,
that Democrat Party or the Republican Party led by President Trump.
Lowest poverty rate on record, crime getting crushed,
murder rate getting crushed, border down to zero,
manufacturing back.
I've got a whole section here of not just good news,
but amazing news. That's not even it to the beginning. I've got more. I've got more.
Hey, we talk all the time about paying attention to what's happening around you, but you got to pay
attention to what's happening inside your own body too. A lot of men don't think about cholesterol
to the numbers are right there on a lab report. Then suddenly it matters. At a certain point,
you look at your cabinet and you think, when did this become my life? Another bottle, another capsule.
That's one reason I like dose for cholesterol. I use it. It's not another pill. It's a drinkable
daily shot. Dose for cholesterol is clinically backed to support triglycerize, LDL, HDL, and total
cholesterol levels. It's a gentler alternative with ingredients you recognize like co-enzyme Q-10,
ginger, pomegranate, and amla. New dose customers can save 35% in your first order of subscription

subscription. I use the product. It worked wonders for me. I have the lab results to back it up.
These statements and products have not been evaluated by the FDA and not tend to diagnose,
treat, cure, prevent any disease or condition. Check out dose, DOSC, dose daily.com.com.
Thank you, Dos. Okay. I had to read this twice because, again, the good news just keeps on coming.
We live in the greatest country on earth, thankfully America, where even in its worst moments,
we still have a republic and we still have the ability to speak.
out. We've been under a lot of stress, the four Biden years, the dreadful eight Obama years.
We've had weaponized members of the House trying to put President Trump in jail. We've had
weaponized attorney generals, weaponized local prosecutors. But folks, compared to the rest of the
world, there is no place you want to be alive. And there is no other time you want to be alive
than right now. Again, I had to read this twice. And the theme of today's show is, hey, this
sounds like a big deal. This sounds like a really big deal. I saw this post on X yesterday by
Jennifer Wu, that these Chinese companies, because their economy is not as advanced as ours is,
whatever it is, evidence from guardrails, consumer lawsuits that keep companies in check and other
things, regulations, they don't have a lot of this stuff. China's nowhere, nowhere close,
contrary to what the Dumers will tell, is nowhere close to the advanced economy we are.
So these Chinese companies tried to steal this AI model, Claude's capabilities.
They accidentally handed the United States their own state secrets instead.
Anthropic disclosed that Chinese AI firms didn't just use Claude to generate training data.
In one case, a company secretly routed over 300,000 real user requests through Claude over 10 days without the users ever knowing.
What came through in that traffic?
surveillance material from a user Anthropics expects is People's Liberation Army affiliated,
login credentials from engineers at major Chinese state-owned enterprises,
probably connected to the Communist Party, most likely, data from police case management systems
and internal details of Chinese AI projects.
They loaded all this stuff.
E-notes kind of in closing.
They were trying to copy an American model.
Instead, they built a pipeline to quietly expose Chinese citizens.
state and military data to a U.S. company. Folks, there has never been a better time to be an American
in the golden age of politics right now. However, I told you I would give you the good news,
bad news. The bad news that we need to fix is you've seen the China threat. I just discussed it.
China apparently made a huge catastrophic tactical error here disclosing all this information.
Not good, but they're not us. I'm not telling you we're not going to make me.
mistakes too. However, we need patriots inside these companies. Folks, I mean it. We need people
that love America. I'm not telling you every Democrat out there doesn't love America. That's not what I'm
saying. There's, you know, coal miners in West Virginia and vote Democrats. They love America like you.
They just have a different idea. However, the commies and progressives and the blue-haired liberals do not.
I say that because going forward, in order for us to not make catastrophic mistakes like this with
AI in our economy, we're going to need people who love America first inside these companies.
I bring it up because of this Wall Street Journal story, how even this is starting to turn
around right now.
I mean in a good way.
You said it was going to be good news.
This sounds like a big deal, too.
There's an article in the Wall Street Journal, Walter Russell Mead, I read often, higher ed will
soon get patriotic.
He notes how, keep this up a second, guys.
He notes how first, how parents, especially in really patriotic areas of the country,
the South, you know, Midwest, the Rust Belt, that a lot of these areas, I'm not telling
these not patriots everywhere else, but you get the point, that they just don't want to send
their kids to woke colleges anymore.
They don't really care if it's Harvard or whatever.
They don't care.
They want their kids to go to college and love America.
Secondly, he notes change will likely come from three directions.
university-based scientific research has to take national security concerns more seriously.
I didn't think of that.
From student recruitment to inter-institutional collaborations with sensitive technologies,
American universities are going to have to think more patriotically or risk massive
reputational damage and less federal funding.
Folks, I'm telling you, man, things are starting to change and change fast and change
dramatically.
I attribute a large portion of this to President Trump's leadership and his make America first message.
It's changing. The world is changing around you. There's no bet. Peak woke is now over.
You don't want these people in charge, folks. These leftists, Kamala Harris, already questioning an election
that hasn't even happened. Hassan Piker, Mamdani, AOC, these people just don't like America.
I know you've probably seen this, but I don't need to,
inject my opinion into the evidence, although I will.
I'll just play their own words.
Here's Asan Piker again, despite the United States, you know, freeing Europe, both portions of
Western and Eastern Europe multiple times from the tyranny of fascism, dictatorship, and
Nazism, despite the United States fighting communism all over the world, despite the United
States leaving their dead all over the world and yet never stealing people's property
or land overshunds that we could have.
We don't own France or Europe.
We could have after World War II, and we don't.
Hassan Piker, unbelievably, thinks we're the big terror group in the world and we're the problem.
These are the kind of people they align with.
You have a choice in the midterms.
Lowest poverty rate, crime crushed, border closed, or someone like this guy who thinks America is the biggest terror state in the world.
Check this up.
That America is the top dog in terrorism.
Yes.
Do you think America then is worse than al-Qaeda?
Pound for pound as far as the number of deaths.
Yes, we've caused tremendous terror all around the world.
I think that that is not only terror that we are waging on regular civilians and nations in the periphery,
but it's also having consequences on ourselves.
It's having dramatic consequences on the home front.
Again, if you're thinking about not showing up to vote, you're an independent, moderate
Republican, MAGA Republican, libertarian. I don't really care. Even if you're a blue dog Democrat,
there are a lot of them left. This is the Democrat Party. They openly campaign with this guy.
Just put Piker, El Cyan, put campaign appearances, Hassan Piker. They love this guy.
We do everything we can to avoid civilian casualties, why the Islamophonatic nuts,
he appears to worship, fly willingly planes into building.
to murder people who burn alive and have to jump 110 stories and kill themselves to get away from the flames.
And you're comparing us to them.
Are you freaking crazy?
We don't have a message in the midterms.
I just told you the message.
Here's an even easier message.
We probably shouldn't align with people who support terror groups like these freaking lunatics.
How bad does it have to be, by the way, when the Detroit News, not known to be some big, hardcore conservative outlet,
Detroit News is endorsing Republican Mike Rogers for Senate in Michigan over El Sayyad who campaigned
with Piker. Do you know how bad this has to be? And yet you got Republicans. I don't know
the message. Even the Detroit News got the message. Folks, this is a serious time. We need serious
people in charge who understand AI, the China threat, the Islamo fanatic threat, the Muslim
Brotherhood, and people who understand all this nonsense. And I told you, President Trump is the
consensus seeker and the leader we need right now. And he's got a body of freaking result.
like I've never seen.
You're just ignoring them
if you're out there running
and going,
oh, we got nothing to run on.
We have a serious threat ahead too.
Here's a quick Fox video yesterday.
I need you to see
because I was briefed in
on a lot of this as well.
The China threat is very real.
You want Kamala Harrison
charged the wheels on the bus
go round and run.
AI, two letters.
You want that?
You want that?
The China threat is real,
especially in this new AI, these new AI horizons that are breaking by the day.
Check out this Fox report. This is important. Pay close attention.
FBI says China is responsible for up to 80% of the intellectual property theft here in the United States,
and that includes AI.
And yesterday in the Rose Garden, President Trump's Attorney General says the Justice Department will continue to investigate it.
The Department of Justice and other agencies in the executive, of course, we're doing everything we can to combat that.
and to go after that in the right way.
But I don't think it's fair to just label China as a country.
There's bad actors in China that are doing it, which we're definitely going to go after.
Folks, the China threat is very real.
I'm glad a lot of you refreshed.
Thank you again.
Sorry for that break in the show.
But folks, the China threat is very real.
President Trump has already given you a portfolio of items to run on a Christmas stocking,
overflowing with goodies, man.
Goodies. That's like an old part.
Goodies. My grandmother's,
we got some goodies for you, Dan.
And it was always like some Entemines donut.
Remember the double chocolate done with a little like crumbs on top?
I have the granddad.
We got some goodies.
You still confused about a message for the midterms?
I've got some other bangers for you.
Again, they're just numbers, folks.
If you were a Republican running for,
and to the Republicans running for office,
who have taken this information and run on it,
I applaud you.
this is not directed at you.
To the others who think this election's over and a fade accompli
because I have no messenger.
Change your diapers and pay attention and start taking notes.
You got more?
Oh, I got more.
Here's the Atlanta Fed.
Look at it.
Very nice.
Posting on Twitter.
On September 16th, the GDP now model,
has forecast real GDP growth in quarter three coming up in 2026.
as 5.1%
what does that mean?
Ladies and gentlemen,
a damn good number is 3%.
A great number is 4%.
5% is like Reagan era 80s numbers.
That's the Atlanta Fed.
They're not a partisan outlet.
The Fed branch,
they're not running for office.
Do you understand what 5% growth looks like?
5% growth look.
Your wages, real wages,
Real wages, not inflation, real adjusted wages, would double in about, I don't know, 14, 15 years would double if we could hit that.
Double, meaning you're making 70,000, you'd be making 140,000 before you even retire.
And that's not even factor in the raises from your job.
That's just the GDP growth.
Well, obviously, factoring in the raises.
Here's another amazing piece of good news.
This is just this week, man.
It's only Thursday.
Dan, you're too optimistic.
Good, I don't care.
You want the depressing show?
There's a thousand other Folex MAGA people
who are going to tell you how the world sucks.
Everybody sucks.
This guy sucks.
That guy sucks.
I'm not doing that.
It's okay if this isn't the show for you.
This is the show where we, next man up.
Some bad news happens.
Someone grabs the flag and charges ahead.
We don't sit there and grab.
and moan about every piece of freaking bad news.
And when the good news happens, we charge the damn battlefield.
So this happened yesterday, too, to the nothing is happening crowd.
The Abbey Gate bomber due to Joe Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Something happened with him yesterday, too, because again, I thought nothing is happening.
Thanks to President Trump's leadership, we got some scalps on this one.
Check this out.
One of the men convicted in connection with the deadly Abbey Gate
bombing was just sentenced to 20 years in federal prison. That suspect was convicted of conspiring
to give material support to the Islamic State terrorists, ISIS, in connection with that suicide
bombing during former President Joe Biden's botched withdrawal from Afghanistan in August of 2021.
That attack killed 13 U.S. service members and wounded nearly 200 others and killed about 200 others.
It happened.
20 years, man.
20 years.
If this stuff doesn't matter to you, it matters to me.
I saw MS. Dawkins in the chat.
I'm a happy warrior.
I'm a happy warrior too, Ms. Dawkins.
Me too.
I don't ignore the bad news, but we cover it responsibly.
Don't tell me you don't have a message.
Here's another one, New York Post.
Again, I thought everybody in the Trump administration
and the law enforcement,
counterintel, and counterterrorism,
took their eyes off the ball.
No, the Biden FBI took their eyes off the ball
and the Obama FBI
when they were locking up people
for the crime of being MAGA folks and Republicans.
Here's what your FBI looks like.
FBI stops Russian plot to murder prominent dissident
in Washington, D.C.
Hmm.
I thought we took our eye off the ball.
I want to extend a very sincere note of gratitude
to Jesse Waters yesterday on the five.
I thought this way, I watched this and Justin knows.
I couldn't find a clip after it happened because it just happened.
And I sent an email right away, hey, Justin, find me this clip from the five.
This is amazing.
Here's Jesse Waters on again.
Like, we need good news.
Like, here's an amazing amount of good news that happened with this FBI.
The entire federal law enforcement function under President Trump.
Like, how are we ignoring this?
How are we ignoring this?
Now, obviously, Jesse's not a Democrat, or Jesse's a Republican.
However, you get all the Dumeers in Folex Mago who won't tell you this stuff.
This was a great clip, and I really appreciate him bringing this up.
Check this out.
And if you create a smokescreen where people don't talk about all this drop in violent crime,
then you're not going to realize that when you do focus on the criminal,
instead of putting Trump in prison and worrying about pronouns,
you can actually keep the country safer.
They don't want the audience to hear that.
It's not only the top 10 most wanted, it's the top six fraudsters in the world.
They found more missing and traffic children than have ever been found in the history of the United States just in 18 months.
I had to close down my factory.
We had a World Cup with like millions of foreigners born into the country, zero incidents.
We had a safe Olympics. We had two safe Super Bowls.
And they've been so transparent.
We're getting all the goodies on Epstein, on Butler, on UFOs, on Jopold.
JFK, we're getting so much good stuff. Crime is down in such a prolific run.
I don't, what's, you see what the Dumers and their agenda, they just want you pissed off
all the time. All that stuff he said is true. Folks, the news gets even better.
There's more good economic news. This is just this week. This is just this week.
unemployment rate down.
I'll get to that in a second.
Retail sales up coming up right now.
Poverty rate, the lowest in recorded U.S. history.
Here's CNBC yesterday.
Again, not some big pro-Trump outlet.
It's CNBC.
Here's CNBC talking about retail sales.
In other words, when retail sales are up,
it means people are buying stuff.
This is a good thing.
If people don't buy stuff, there's nothing to sell to
because you have no customers.
Didn't hear about this anywhere in the left-wing media.
CNBC's going to.
got to cover it because they do business. Check this out. We're going to look for retail sales
for August along with import expert prices, hitting the wires as I speak. We're expecting up
a little shy of 1% for retail sales. The advanced look comes in stronger. Up 1.2% up 1.2 would
be the best level since the highest level of year was 1.7 and that was in March. This series
has been doing pretty well. And once you strip out autos, drum roll please, this is a super
strong number. Expecting up six 10x autos more than double. One point four percent. That's going
to be a way back machine. One point four? Well, not so far. Two percent in March, this will be the
second best of the year, but these by historic standards are very lofty. That two percent that
we had in March was the strongest going back over three years. Is anybody tired of winning yet?
someone in the chat is, I'm not tired.
I'm not tired of winning either.
I'm not tired of winning either.
This is a campaign slogan itself.
Here's another one, the poverty rate.
We don't want people to be poor, correct?
Anyone disagree?
Vote in the studio.
Jasmine, do you want people to be poor?
No, no him.
Justin?
No.
Andrew, he's not here.
Andrew drank too much water, needed a bathroom break.
What's going on?
The president calls the show.
everybody's like going to the bathroom in the middle of you guys like drink too much coffee or something like
that the whole like it's like one person they're all like a Andrew I'll answer for you no we don't want people to be
poor so a low poverty rate i.e a smaller round of poor people can we just agree in the chat yes that's a good
thing how about if it's Andrew you back you okay feel better now okay you agree you don't you don't
you don't want a lot of poor people correct he doesn't there you go I answered for him I was correct
Here's Scott Bessent up on the Hill yesterday.
The amount of poor people as a function of the rate is the lowest that's been in like recorded history.
Sounds like a big deal to me.
Check this out.
Census Bureau covering 2025, they just published the poverty rate declined 50 basis points to 10.2%.
Real median household income increased by $2,250, 2.6% to $87,460, the $1,000.
highest on record. Pre-text income for black Americans is up 4.8% white Americans 2.9.
So we want to shrink the pool of people who are classified as poor, right? All good. I don't
see any nose in the chat. I don't see any, I don't see anybody. I don't see any nose in
the chat. Here's another simple question. Ask a question. Don't make an assertion.
If you're a Democrat listening who hates my guts, welcome. I'm a free speech.
guy do your thing okay but if this were Barack Obama with the lowest poverty rate of all time
wouldn't you be excited the answer is yes stop the crap okay you know i'm you know i'm telling you
straight what about jobless claims jasmine you want people to be jobless no she's drinking her tea
or whatever justin no no good andrew no no no job we want jobless claims to be low because we want
people to have jobs. You got to be a J-O, have a J-OB if you want to be with me. Some of you
get that. Fire away in the chat. Zero Hedge on X. Enjoy their site. Read it often.
They had a post about jobless claims. Jobbo, look at them. And the date is September 17th.
I think that's today. I always lose track of time. Jobless claims tumbled a 57-year loss. Duma
Republicans. I got nothing run on, bro.
there's nothing to run on.
Really?
57 years.
I'm not even 57.
I'm only 51.
We haven't seen a jobless claim this low in the United States.
There's just six years before I was born.
Since the 60s?
Sounds like kind of a big deal to me.
You're right.
There's totally, completely nothing to run on.
If you sense my, the drips.
sarcasm. I just, I can't take it. I ran in some really tough election cycles when I ran for
office myself. Didn't work out. I'm proud. I was glad I did that. Best experience in my life outside
of the FBI, right? That was it. That was my dream job, right? I loved it. If I could only run with
these types of numbers, I'm going to throw one more at you because I've got some critical interview,
coverage of it, not me, but Will Chamberlain did an interview with Curtis Yarvan.
that people are doing this thing with AI.
That's a really, really bad idea.
You know, I love technology, but don't do this.
I'll talk about that in a second.
But I just want to throw one more at you.
And there's more.
We'll cover over the coming days.
I'm really like, I don't want to hit you with so much good news in one day.
I'm not even kidding, because I don't want you to forget it.
Here's one more, Wall Street Journal.
Median household income.
Median's a measure of central tendency.
You got mean, median, and mode.
It's kind of like a way to form some kind of average
or an idea of what the average American household is doing.
These are household numbers.
So again, asking the question,
we all want household income to be high, right?
I'm sorry, folks, but there are liberals watching who get confused.
If Barack Obama was the president,
you want household income to be high, a lot of income, correct?
The media industry continues to manufacture
forecasts of doom, the Wall Street Journal notes.
But harder data says that this is a great time to be an American.
arguably the greatest in all of our spectacular history.
This is the Wall Street Journal.
Some of them don't even like Trump.
Look at this number.
That's their words, not mine, although I agree with it.
On Tuesday, the government reported that after adjusting for inflation,
the typical U.S. household is making more money than ever.
They announced that real median household income was $87,460 in 2025,
the highest on record dating back to 1967.
The official poverty rate fell 0.5 points to 10.2% in 2025, the lowest there.
I don't know what to.
Did you not?
I don't have a message.
No, you don't have a cerebral cortex.
Get to a cranial rectotomy, remove your head from your caboose, and just read the freaking news.
I can't help you if you can't read the news.
Your job is to read the news.
You're a representative of the people, correct?
your freaking job. It's like being the milk man in the 60s delivering milk and going,
I forgot the milk. You're the milk delivery guy. What's the purpose to, the raison d'etre of
your existur is to leave the milk at the door. We're on a roll today. Sorry, the president
got me in such a good mood. Because he's optimistic too. I'm chatting with him on the phone.
He's as confused as everyone else about what some of these Republicans are complaining about.
This guy handed you a Christmas stocking
full of the greatest toys and gizmos ever
and you're complaining,
I wanted coal instead.
What is going on with you people out there?
Not you, the audience.
I love my audience.
Your opinion matter.
I'm talking about these electeds.
What is their problem, man?
All right, I wanted to, this is,
folks, do not do this.
Not until we get a good idea of what AI is doing.
This is a really bad idea.
You know, I'm going to give you a balanced perspective.
I think the potential for AI, I think that 5% GDP number I talked about could be 10 or 15.
If AI does what we, and we minimize the risks, cancer, material sciences, curing diseases.
The potential is endless.
There are things we probably don't even know.
We don't know that AI will figure out.
However, it's not fully advanced and mature yet where we understand all the risks,
and we have to take that into account.
We have to take it into account.
I like Will Chamberlain-A-Laddy as a podcast.
He had Curtis Jarvan on, and they discussed this thing people are doing where they're connecting
AI agents to their email system.
Folks, I do not think this is a good idea.
I just want to be on the record.
Very bad idea.
He's going to explain to you why, but it goes back to the,
two huge concerns I have about AI.
I share with the author of that Wall Street Journal piece the other day.
You should not be delegating tasks to AI that could basically end your life or be used to
destroy you.
Don't do it until you're comfortable.
Do not delegate those tasks yet until we're ready.
Just like we wouldn't delegate AI to fly in a plane with no human pilot there.
We're not ready for that.
Second, if the decision's not reversible, in other words, you can't stop the AI and bring it back, then don't do it.
And AI having access to your email and potentially launching it all over the internet is not reversible.
Do not do this.
Check this out.
Over time, what we're seeing is that these things are not becoming less controllable.
They're becoming more controllable and more essentially trustworthy for performing, essentially,
that have tasked. You know, as the doomers are dooming, millions of people are connecting their
Gmail to Grokbot and, you know, an instinct and news and other new platforms. You know, AI has
created this new industry, really, of the personal server, which is only going to grow. And your
Grop bot can instantly destroy your career. It could go out on the web and find CSAM and send it
to your boss easily. Right. And the thing is, basically,
people trust these things in practice not to do that.
Does your Tesla FSD, which is smarter than you as a driver in many ways,
does it hack into critical infrastructure and try to take over the world?
No, not only have we not seen that behavior,
we have not seen anything within many, many orders of magnitude of that behavior.
And actually, these systems, again, as they get smarter,
are getting only more controlled and more predictable.
Hit Gary in the chat.
Don't get hacked.
John DeSalvo, trust, but verify.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We're not ready for that.
Just a warning from me.
I disclosed it everything.
I'm an investor in the tech space, have been for a long time.
Be smart about this.
I would not be connecting these agents to private information that if it were to get out on the internet,
excuse me, is not reversible.
Once it's out, you can't.
pull it back. It's a really, really bad idea. Not to mention, you don't want one of these things
if its alignment isn't correct trying to bribe you with your own email. Not a good idea.
Just don't do it. You know, I am an observer, obviously, of the political ecosystem and
environment out there. You know I like to pay attention to what's going on. Now, I want to say
I have been out of the federal government, as you well know, for about six months.
months now and I lose track of time. I loved my time there. This is not based on any inside information.
I want to be clear on that. This is based only on my political, analytical background, how I can just,
you know, you read enough stories you learn to kind of see signs. When the DOJ puts this out,
the National Security Division of Department of Justice, they're not putting it out by accident.
I can just tell you based on experience that nothing there happens by accident.
So if I've been warning you over and over again, you can read this, I'll read some of it coming up in a second.
I've been warning you since I got back on the air, having seen things from the inside,
that there are people doing things on social media to get you to believe bad things,
that they don't really believe in, many of them, not all,
many of them are being paid by foreign actors.
The worst part is they're not even telling you.
At least if they would disclose it, it would look like they had some semblance of integrity.
They're not.
So I saw this pop yesterday and I thought, this doesn't look good for some of those folks.
Department of Justice.
Liability for unregistered foreign agents.
DOJ would like to remind the public of federal laws that require individuals to register as foreign agents
when they act in the United States
at the direction or control
of a foreign government or foreign principle
and they will face civil and criminal liability
if they fail to do so.
I don't think that's an accident.
I don't think that's an accident
like at all.
Folks, you have, I want to explain this to you
because it's important.
You have a First Amendment right
to advocate for a position
if a foreign government loves it or hates it,
you can do that. However, if you are being compensated, paid to advocate on behalf of a foreign
government or foreign principle, if you are doing that, you have an obligation under Farah
to disclose that. You have an obligation, it's the law. It's to prevent massive foreign
interference and electoral issues and things like that. You're allowed to take the position.
I cannot be any clearer. But if you take money for said position, you're still,
allowed to do it. You just have to disclose it. You're not not allowed to double negative.
You're allowed to do it. Take money. You just have to disclose it. By the way, it's just the right
thing to do. If I were to put an ad on my social media account, we don't do it often. I think we've
done it a couple times. You put hashtag ad so people understand it. And that's not even a national
security concern. That's just like Joey Baguette's Bagel's. Hey, they're really delicious.
just try the everything bagels hashtag ad you do it because it's the right thing to do
sticking with the theme of today's show you like a sounds like kind of a big deal do they know
something i don't know again i've been out six months i can just tell you i don't think it's an
accident this is going to be one of those dan bonjino told us and was right again moments
because i'm almost never wrong on this stuff a lot of stuff you're being told by doom and gloom people
who just want Donald Trump out of there so China can win,
are being paid by foreign governments like China,
like the Middle Eastern countries, Qatar, and others else.
They're being paid to tell you things that sound crazy.
We'll see what happens in the coming days and months about that.
All right, I wanted to put this up,
and again, running with today's theme about big deal things.
Folks, we are looking at an incredibly prosperous future.
You saw the GDP numbers.
If we can get a hold on AI and get it to do all these amazing things,
the building renaissance happening here in the United States,
what was it?
Check this out, Andrew.
Was it Hitachi who just announced, you know, millions of dollars of investment?
You've got car companies bringing back building high-tech materials
and vehicles in the United States.
There's never been a better time to be alive.
There is a building renaissance going on here in the United States.
However, just like any renaissance in manufacturing,
Manufacturing, unlike services, requires raw materials.
I mean, listen, legal service, yeah, obviously calories for your brain to work, but you get my point.
When you're providing someone legal services, you're not building it with like steel and glass and semiconductors.
It requires raw materials.
Imagine the power of AI, a building renaissance in the United States with electricians making $200,000 a year, right?
imagine quantum computing cutting the speed of computing geometrically making it almost instant because it can do all things at a time instead of one by one
combine that with unlimited resources what do you mean unlimited resource dan that's impossible every resource is limited
gold silver water rare earth minerals they're called rare earth minerals because they're rare
where am I going with this?
Here's NASA administrator, Jared Isaacsman,
talking about a moon base
that's in the very, very, very close future here.
Now, we're not talking about like Star Wars here,
like 2,000 years in the future, whatever the hell.
They never actually dated it, but you get the point.
It was a long, long time ago.
Thank you, Jed.
That's good.
That's actually pretty good.
It's a historical documentary.
Justin says that actually happened.
I didn't know that.
lightsabers and all. However, imagine all of this with resources that are not rare, that are basically
unlimited because we can gather them from freaking space. You want to talk about abundance.
You'd almost drive the cost of stuff that's really expensive today to nothing. Everybody could
have everything. Check this out. We're going to be able to manufacture rocket propellant,
oxygen for life support, water. There is no shortage of it. Now, are we saying that you're
going to have a Manhattan-sized city for the next hundred years? Probably not. Look, the best place
in the neighborhood is Earth right now. But the moon is one of our outposts on the journey to get
to Mars. It is the greatest adventure in human history. The moon is one stop along the way.
We're going to be able to operate just fine on the surface. Again, call me an optimist.
That's fine. I'll take it. Tattoo it on my forehead. Oh, the dawn. I'm trying to get rid of most
to my tat. I got so many tattoos. I'm trying to get rid of something. Really? They're freaking
me out. I got all these tattoos when I was younger. Then you get older. Listen, you have
tats. Some of my like, and I wouldn't get rid of, but you know, when you're making decisions
when you're like 16 years old. But tattoo that in your, but I am an optimist. I'll take it.
A fake tattoo. You're washing off. You are looking at you, it is the greatest time to be alive.
You know, the streets totally safe. They're the safest they've been.
Does that mean is that crime?
No.
The poverty rate.
Does that mean they're not poor people?
No, it's just the smallest amount of poor people we've seen in our lifetimes.
Jobless claims.
Are they zero?
No.
They're just the lowest amount we've seen in our lifetimes.
The murder rate.
Are there still murders?
Yes.
Are there the fewest amount of murders you've ever seen in your lifetime?
Yes.
Are there still people crossing the border?
Yes.
How many people are admitted legally crossing the border?
Just let it.
Zero.
Zero.
You are alive at the.
greatest. Imagine unlimited resources. Imagine rare earth minerals not being rare. Mining the moon.
We won't even be able to use half that stuff. Scarcity goes away. Quick break. And I got a great
post for you coming up. And why am I going to, I'm putting this post up there. Listen, I'm not a
motivational speaker, man. That's not my gig. Okay. However, I did a lot in my life with very little.
I love my parents to death. My father busted his ass. He was a plumber to give me an opportunity
and a building inspector in the town of Smithtown.
My mom worked a checkout counter in a supermarket.
Whatever, who cares about my lifestyle?
I'm just telling you, like, I wasn't born with some silver spoon.
So sometimes people ask me for little tidbits of advice.
I'm always honored they even ask me.
And I tell them this one thing,
and I found it summarized nicely in a post on X,
the best piece of life advice I can ever give you.
Life is a game of math and probabilities.
there's no such thing as luck there isn't there is no such thing as luck you have to collect opportunities
and you'll see luck doesn't matter it becomes a math equation i'll show you what i mean coming up in a second
what's that oh thank you you found it i was right it was it was hitachi hitachi deepens commitment
to u.s manufacturing with a 528 million dollar mississippi transformer factory sounds like a big deal
bro, sounds like a big deal.
I'm an optimist.
Hey, quick question.
You heard about them in the beginning of the show,

free for everybody. We really appreciate it. So again, I'm asked occasionally by people, and this is not
the preachy show or anything like that. Gosh, I've screwed up so much stuff again. I wrote a whole book.
My favorite book is about things I flopped on to show you all. Like, we all screw stuff up.
It's how you get up and dust off that matters. Cody Sanchez has a good follow on X.
She had this post-up.
She said, the older you get, the more you realize luck is just exposure.
Yes.
There's no luck, folks.
If you sit in the same chair, follow the same routine, and talk to the same people,
nothing new happens.
This is a great line.
Cody, I'm going to steal this.
I'll footnote it to you, though.
You have to touch the world to win in it.
Talk to strangers.
Try a new coffee spot.
Post on social.
Start a side hustle.
She says, when I was broke, I joined Mastermind.
mind specifically to be in the room with people who are ahead of me. Now I'm worth nine figures
and still pay to be around people worth 10 plus. She basically goes on to say if you want to scale
your business and build up, you have to go out and interact with people. Folks, you have to
collect opportunities. If you are in a room over and over with people, I jokingly say it this way
to get your attention. There's a nicer way to say it, but it gets people's attention when I say
this. Even at like parties and stuff when people ask me how we got here, I said, listen, my best
advice to you is always be the dumbest person in the room. What? That's like an insult. No, it isn't.
It could say it another way, like always hang around with smart people. I say it that way because
it gets people's attention. If you're always hanging around with people smarter than you,
doctors, PhD, successful business people, carpenters who are experts in their craft, you will get
smarter by being around. If you're always hanging around people dumber than you, I promise you'll
get dumber two regression to the mean it's just statistics and math hang around with people and
collect opportunities if you're around with people smarter than you two 300 times one of those is
going to result in some opportunity that the guy who never gets out of his house eating pop darts is
just never going to have it's not luck it's just math it's just math collect opportunities
don't chase trains i got that from the black swan that book
If the train's coming at 10 o'clock, be there at 9.55.
If you missed it, it's your fault.
Collect opportunities.
Do not chase trains.
Best advice I can ever give you.
Matter of fact, an even more important piece of advice I can give you
is we're all sinners, folks, me included.
But you can be saved.
We can all be saved.
If you don't have faith in your life and you don't believe in something bigger and more important
and more powerful, omniscient, omnipotent than you,
then your life can get direct.
directionless. Andrew Huberman's a medical doctor. He's got a very popular podcast that you may have
heard of them. I've noticed this in my view. Any of you out there in the chat, know an addict. When you're an
addict, folks, the probabilities are not good. The math is not good that you're going to recover.
It's not zero, but it's not good. People relapse all the time. I have seen this over and over.
I've always said on my show, because I've dealt with this in my family. If you are an addict,
you're not only welcome here, I want you here. Because people,
love you. God loves you. You can fix yourself. I promise. It's really hard. I've seen this in my family.
It's the most horrifying thing. You die with these people. You know that. Why do I bring this up in the
context of faith? Because the only people I know that have saved themselves from the horrors of
addiction, alcohol, drugs, prescription pills, the only people I know at some point found God.
Huberman's a scientist. He's not a preacher. But he's going to give you some numbers.
on this that are just staggering.
You don't have some higher power in your life
or some sense of faith.
It's really hard to get through this life.
It's really hard.
Check this out.
There's this crazy thing that you see
with people who have addictive behaviors
that violates everything we understand
about the brain, everything,
which is, remember we were saying,
like top down control,
like I'm not going to engage in this impulse.
I'm not going to do it.
I'm not going to do it.
When people are not able to suppress action,
in particular in the case of addictive,
or compulsive behaviors, and they decide to give that process over to a quote, higher power.
Could be God, could be for them nature, right?
Everyone's, you know, it's highly individual.
The success rates of people being able to suppress that behavior are astounding.
And everything we know about neuroscience and top-down inhibition of these impulsive circuits
tell us the exact opposite should happen.
You're like, it's like saying, oh, I can't keep my car between the lane lines when I drive.
Like, it's pulling me this way.
And so, you know what I'm going to do?
They're going to take my hands off the steering wheel.
and it magically stays in between the lane line.
Folks, Huberman's a scientist, he's a medical doctor, he's not a preacher.
He's just given you the numbers.
Folks in the chat, have you experienced this in your life
or the life of a loved one or a friend who can't rescue themselves
from the damage of these chemicals and they find God?
And all of a sudden their whole life turns out.
I've not only seen it once, I've seen it three, four, five times.
I can make the case to you.
it's probably the only way.
You got to turn it over to God, man.
You have to.
Listen, I don't make the show about,
it's not like the Dan Bongino autobiography, okay?
Because who the hell cares?
I'm telling you that my time in the government working for you
and in the honor of a lifetime working for this president,
that was my dream job.
But it presented a lot of challenges.
And you know, I always told you, like, my only regret was telling Lawrence Jones that on the air.
Like, just, shoot up and keep it to yourself up.
But I can tell you now, because I'm Allie.
It's a really hard thing to get through when you're managing a portfolio of really difficult decisions in any job.
The FBI, IBM, whatever, Medtronic, I don't know this, whatever.
If you don't have a higher power keeping you in between, as he said, the lines in the road there, it's really difficult.
Because I promise if you sincerely ask for help from a higher power,
from when I ask Jesus for help, even at my worst.
And lately it's been like that.
A lot of things going on in my life.
It's almost like, it's almost like magic.
The next day, you have to just ask and be sincere about it.
Turn it over to God, man.
Turn it over to God.
He's not going to let you down.
Just ask.
I can't, if that's the best piece of advice, above collect opportunities,
that's about material wealth, which is far subordinate to spiritual wealth.
Again, I'm not your preacher, folks.
I'm nobody's role model.
I'm just telling you, every time I've asked him, he's always been there for me.
That was a lot of show today.
In case you missed it and you're watching on demand,
if it takes a second to upload, thank you for the reminder.
I almost forgot to comment to the day.
I'll get to that in a second.
We got a call from the president mid-show.
We will never, ever not stop a live show for the president.
Or if, God forbid, there was a family emergency.
It's the only reason.
So I'm sorry, I know we lost some of you on the live stream who didn't refresh.
But I think you would all agree it's worth it.
He again wanted me to pass on to you.
He specifically asked me how much he loves and adores this audience and all of his supporters out there.
That meant the world to me.
It was a really great conversation.
So we appreciate it.
We'll try to get them back on the show.
to some time for you in the future.
You know, every day we pick a comment of the day.
And then once a week, out of that comment of the day, pool,
we pick a winner that gets $1,776.
We love giving away money.
If you want to see the official rules for the contest,
go to bonjino.com slash 1776.
We picked our winner from week eight yesterday.
If you want to watch the show,
today's comment of the day is Andy Camping.
Who else can hold 35,000 people waiting,
patiently, Team Bongino, that's who.
Andy Camping, thank you.
My humility is not a stick or an act.
This is all you guys.
That's all you guys.
You are the best audience in this business.
Hands down.
Hands down.
There is nowhere else I want to be rather than with you guys.
The fact that you hung around during a break for that,
I really, and I didn't even tell you who it was.
That could have been Joey Bag of Donuts.
Like we ran out of everything bagels.
I think some of you figured it out.
So thank you so much for tuning in.
