Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host, Dan Bongino. Thank you, Justin. So much confidence is inspired right now. So much confidence now that Kamala Harris is likely going to be the Democrat nominee. Holy Moses. Folks, I don't even know where to start. I'm like up in the air. Kamala Harris, a potential Kamala Harris presidency and the devastating national security consequences of that.

Or the Secret Service director right now bullshitting the entire known universe and only Republicans asking questions. This woman is a disgrace to humankind. There is nothing classified about the operation anymore. Everybody knows the post standards. Everybody knows it was secured and unsecured. It's like a motorcade route after the president's run it. It's not secure anymore because everybody knows the president took that route because he took it. This woman is a disgrace, ladies and gentlemen.

I'm going to help Congress out with a question right now. Big, big show. Don't go anywhere. I'm tired of the bullshit. Thank you to everyone who joined this last night for our emergency broadcast.

Here's the question right away up front, because I hate bullshit and I have no time.

Congressional members, if you're listening right now, ask her and tell her she's under oath, Kim Cheadle. Is she using Signal to communicate with the White House, specifically Bernal and Tomasini from the Biden White House? Ask her. Ask her a reminder she's under oath. Always breaking news. Folks, it's been a whirlwind this past few weeks.

All right, Justin, let's go. Folks, first, Kraken, this is for you. I want to thank my staff. Again, this is super important.

Justin's working. He's a little bit under the weather. Guy is traveling. Michael and Evita got caught, and there was also a family emergency. So we are working on a skeleton crew, but it doesn't matter. We're going to get the show to you. So just bear with us a little bit if there's a slight little technical hiccup. We don't anticipate any, but I really appreciate it.

By the way, some of you see the Bongino Army shirt. I know it's a little light. I'm not sure. Can you see that on your screen over there? It says Bongino Army. This is for you guys. Listen, we just did it for you. We donate the money to charity, so our proceeds from it. It's store.bongino.com is for you guys. Listen, we just did it for you. We donate the money to charity,

so our proceeds from it. It's store.bongino.com if you want one, but this is for the Bongino Army, exclusively for you guys. This is not like a wide distribution shirt. It's for you. We print them on demand. So you want it, we provide. Hey, listen, quickly before I get to Kim Cheadle, I want to go over some things just fast. I had warned you about the debate that the biggest problem we were going to have if the debate happened and we crushed President Biden, which happened. I warned you in advance that this was going

to cause a big problem. The big problem is it was going to create pressure to push Biden out. Ladies and gentlemen, go back. Listen, this is a fuck self-praise stuff. Sorry about the language. My apology. But who cares? I don't want to waste your freaking time. I told you what was going to happen, and it happened.

The Democrats scheduled this debate early. Why? If you watch my show, you know. Because they wanted Biden out. They knew he was mentally compromised and was going to fold, and it gave him enough time to get him out. It was a hit job. Go listen to the show from that day. I think the title of the show was something like,

is it a hit job? Everything we told you was going to happen, happened. I told you this guy wasn't going to be the nominee. They just needed time. Here was a quick minute clip of what I was talking about. I want you to listen to this because it's important. Because now, ladies and gentlemen, I don't care what anybody tells you.

The best candidate we could run against, meaning the worst candidate for the Democrats, was Biden. I'm not telling you we can't beat Kamala Harris. But I'm telling you, don't get cocky. Seriously. Check this out. The single worst debate performance you have ever seen in your entire life. Ladies and gentlemen, when you lose CNN, Chuck Todd, the young turds and everyone else,

it is over now. That's the good news. That's the good news. Audience, guys and ladies, my friends, what's the bad news? Yes. The bad news is we needed a push, but we got a push, meaning we got to have our moment. We wanted them to have a moment. You remember why from yesterday's show? Because we don't want Biden out of the race. He is the single worst candidate in the country, and I want to run against him. Last night, there's a small problem.

Yes, we can all kind of celebrate the victory, the Democrats. And it does kind of feel good to watch this narcissistic, kid-sniffing, loser, woman-groping, daughter-showering, zero, suffer after all the suffering he's put on us. But I haven't decanted with you. Last night, and I can't be a hypocrite, I said yesterday we needed more of a push. It was such complete destruction.

My fear now is that the likelihood of Biden not being the candidate now is about 51%. You guys, my P1s, Bongino Army, Justin, you know, we don't do that often because why play dumb ass clips of yourself before if you could just say it again? I want you to be really careful. This is also why I hate red wave and landslide talk. Ladies and gentlemen, Kamala Harris one isn't even the presumptive nominee.

She has zero delegates. Biden had pledged delegates, not her. We don't know what's going to happen. I'm just telling you, I said yesterday in my emergency broadcast, you would know by Wednesday who they're going to lean towards. I'm already correct. You know by Monday. Newsom and the Clintons have already endorsed her. Obama, it's only a matter of time. Obama's just waiting to lick his finger and see where the wind blows. Kamala Harris has all the momentum now. They are going to try to reinvent her and I don't want anyone getting cocky about this. Anyone. This woman has zero qualifications whatsoever. And yet, despite all the talk, oh, she blew it in the presidential election. She still managed to win over liberals in California a couple of times.

Do not play this election down. They will try to reinvent her a thousand times and mark my words, flag it today. Flags in the chat, folks. Red flags right now. I want to see them. Don't mean to sound bossy, but I need the confirmation. Every single attack on Kamala Harris is going to be portrayed as racist and misogynist. It doesn't matter that it's not.

It never is with conservatives. Every single attack, and I promise you, it's going to cow some people into submission. I promise you. Flag it today. Let's get into quickly a couple of things. And by the way, that Michigan poll is what pushed Biden out. Now the only question is how long does he hold on as president? We need Kamala Harris to take over today so we can pin her.

Thank you, Chad. You guys are the best and ladies out there. Love you. The Bongino Savages. You can do a shirt on that one. If you watched last night, you know, I was in a mood last night during the emergency broadcast. How long does Biden hold on now as president? Biden should resign. Kamala Harris should take over. It would allow us to pin the Biden resume to Harris. Push for him to get out, ladies and gentlemen. If he's not capable to be the candidate, he's not capable to be the president.

What happens from this point forward? I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this. I hate the Washington Post. It's the most phony, fake thing. But listen, they're activist Democrats, so obviously they know the Democrat Party better than I do because they're activists. They're not media people.

How Democrats can pick a new candidate step by step. Folks, they have a virtual vote coming up in just a couple of weeks in August. The other option is an open convention, a scenario the party hasn't experienced since 68. So they can nominate virtually in a couple of weeks or wait till the end of August for the convention and do an open convention. You need 300 delegates to get your name formally entered into contention. 50 can't be from the same state. They note here a few thousand delegates representing voters officially decide on the nominee. Say it's an open convention.

Typically, they choose the winner of the primaries. That's what they're sent to do. But that's not the case right now. Biden's left the race. So all his delegates are now free agents. They're not pledged to Kamala and can choose a candidate on their own without voter input. If an open convention happens, ladies and gentlemen, I don't expect absolute chaos like some are predicting. I think Kamala Harris may coalesce. They may coalesce around her now that Newsom's out. We'll see what J.B. Pritzker does. Whitmer's now out.

We'll also see who they pick for a vice presidential nominee. They note here, just to get your name in the roll call vote, your candidates would need the signatures of at least 300 delegates. No more than 50 can come from any one state. I think we're going to know again by Wednesday. I'm already seeing a paper trail here now that Kamala Harris is going to coalesce support. And what I'm hearing from people, I said this last night, forgive me for repeating it, but it's important. If you missed last night's emergency broadcast, I'm hearing now that the Biden people are winking and nodding and implying to

people that if you come out against her, you're going to be accused of racism and misogyny too. That's the Democrats. Of course, they're going to accuse Republicans of that. That's all they know how to do. Folks, we just got back from the RNC. This is absolutely no time for any weekend update. I'm sorry. But thank you. I thank you to all of you tuned in. It's a quick photo from the RNC. It's a bunch of content up there if you missed any of it. This was probably the best collaboration we've ever done. It was me, Don Jr., Tucker Carlson on the Dan Bongino Show, Chris Pavlovsky from Rumble jumped in at the end.

It is an absolute blast. It's up on my feed. There's a ton of content there. I don't have time to update everything on the RNC, folks. We will at some point. It was a behind the scenes was just as great and entertaining as in front of the scenes. We'll get to that another day. It's a heavy news day.

I still want to get to the Secret Service thing. Also, I'm going to tell you just again, quickly coming back from there, that even Peggy Noonan, who's no Trump fan at all at the Wall Street Journal, is starting to note that the RNC was a triumph and that the Trump MAGA movement is now a real movement. This isn't some ragtag group of misfits. I still like the misfit label only because I like being renegades.

However, we're a real party now. You should be very proud of yourself. What we pulled off because that was you too. Thank you to all the people who said really nice things and came up to us at the convention. We were honored to be there. President Trump, I want to thank Laura too. They put us up in President Trump's box and we were really honored to be there. So thank you so much. All right. I want to get back quickly. I'm going to jump around a lot today because there's a lot going on, but I want to get to the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Kim Cheadle is testifying right now. Folks, listen to me.

If I thought there was anything for you to watch, I candidly, because information matters to me, not bullshit, and I know you'll watch later, I would say to you, oh, go tune in. It's live now. You get information. It's a waste of your time. Kim Cheadle, from the jump,

she's been on about a little over an hour now. Kim Cheadle has said nothing. She is defrauding America by bullshitting everyone and pretending that she can't share information because it's classified. That is bullshit. No one is asking her for methodologies. They're asking her specifically about the breakdown that day and security and repeated requests for security that she's turned down. She has proven to be a liar. They have lied repeatedly. Ladies and gentlemen, this has been the home for breaking news. Everything that's come out recently, there were only three Secret Service agents. We reported that last week. The rest were HSI. That was reported last week. You were a week ahead of

the story. The ladder story, all of you seeing that picture of the ladder? He used no ladder. Listen to me. The ladder was placed there after by law enforcement accessing the roof. That's not his ladder. I can't tell you this enough. That's important. It's important because he used an AC unit to get up there.

And we don't know if him getting on the roof was part of his initial plan or if he thought he was going to take a ground shot at Trump or Trump and the crowd or the crowd or the crowd and Trump. These details matter. I will never mess with you. I promise you. Look at me. Please, God, I never use this name in vain.

Don't ever, ever let me do what some of these people do for clicks. The truth matters. The truth has no agenda. We have been ahead of this story because we stuck to the facts. A couple of things out there now. I told you a week ago, and I'm going to bring the damn receipts, that the Secret Service has repeatedly asked for enhanced security at Mar-a-Lago and around President Trump. It's the leadership team of what's known as DTD, Donald Trump Division. The DTD, the Donald Trump detail, okay? They have repeatedly asked for enhanced security.

I said that, and all of the people jumped down my throat. Mayorkas, Secret Service folks, all of them jumped down my throat and said I was bullshitting. New York Post, oh look, Secret Service honchos denied Trump additional security for two years before assassination attempt. Damning revelation. I told you, please don't believe the bullshit. There's a lot of people out there spinning up a lot of fairy tales and bullshit

to get you down this ridiculous path. This is horrible enough on its own path. We don't need to enhance it with made-up stuff. This is critical. The Washington Post and Carol Lennox should be ashamed of themselves. Taking credit, by the way, for this story. I showed you the New York Post because I don't want to give the Washington Post any clicks. Exclusive.

Secret Service denied protection assets to Donald Trump. This was published a couple days ago. Bullshit. If the freaking newspaper would have listened to me years ago. Do you have that renegade Republican thing at the end before this, Justin? I'm really sorry. Poor guy's on his own.

Can you... Years ago, Donald Trump likely wouldn't have been shot at. Look at the date on this show. I wasn't even called the Dan Bongino show back then. My show was the Renegade Republican. March 13, 2017.

President Trump isn't safe in the White House. I'd already been documenting this. Ladies and gentlemen, check it out at the library. I don't give a flying F about money or anything. I'd already been documenting this. Ladies and gentlemen, check it out at a library. I don't give a flyin' F about money or anything. I'll steal it from your friend. I don't care. I don't even know how many copies this will have. I wrote this book almost 10 years ago,

Protecting the President. Every single chapter lines out what's wrong with the Secret Service. Did Carol Lennig and others reach out to me? Hey, Dan, this sounds serious. No, they called me a conspiracy theorist and president Trump came within a millimeter having his freaking head blown off because he's assholes can't do a cranial rectotomy and take their heads out of their asses.

Here's me a week ago, warning people that the security around the president was in a former president. Trump was not satisfactory. And if the secret service was warned many times, the story was broken with me on Fox, not the Washington post. Check this out. Very careful. I can tell you an absolutely confirmed from the horse's mouth from multiple

people, not just one. And I saw congressman Waltz text this out before on X. There have been repeated requests to increase the security footprint around not just the residences of Donald Trump, but the body itself. And they have been rebuffed. Like I said, I can tell you actual quotes. The secret service directors completely failed and candidly should resign today. Kim Cheadle has failed Donald Trump and honestly failed Joe Biden too. He's the president right now. Where's the DHS secretary? I mean, this is,

you're blaming it on manpower. So just to be clear, we're a $4 trillion United States government and we can't fork over enough money to keep our people alive? And then you're sending out tweets like, oh, this is the best technology we have. Six trillion. Even worse. I was thinking tax revenue, not what we spend. Folks, here was Mayorkas engaged in a cover-up. Where are

the FOIA requests now for emails about this? Who lied to them and told them that there were no rebuffs, that there were no refusals and requests for additional security? Here's Mayorkas lying to your face. If you were here, you got the truth. These people are full of shit.

There's a massive cover-up going on. Check this out. You also received a letter from the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee that suggests your department may have quote, rebuffed multiple requests from President Trump's security detail to increase protective resources. How do you respond to that? That is an unequivocally false assertion.

We keep a very close watch on a very dynamic threat environment. The president, the former President, are commonly consistently under threat. We take every single threat seriously. We make security adjustments as are warranted. We had enhanced security for the former President beginning at least in June. We have not received any requests for additional security measures that were rebuffed. That assertion is unequivocally false. The guy's full of shit, man. He's a freaking liar.

He is a bullshit artist who has lied about everything. And magically, this loser still hasn't resigned, even with the Secret Service director lying to his face and then him repeating the lie. Nobody's ever accountable in the government. No one, ever. I have the most important question for Congress coming up next. Also, Ron Johnson was on Maria Bartiromo this weekend.

Folks, there's a lot of stories going on out there. I do evidence. The Bongino rule matters. That is it. That is it. If I don't have evidence, I'm not going to say something. If I'm speculating, I'll tell you, but I speculate based on evidence. There's a number of things going around.

I'm going to tell you what we know and what we don't know, and you can formulate an opinion. That's what actual reporting is, and I'm not getting down these crazy paths because it's only going to hurt you and hurt us. Let me take a quick break. Folks, you having trouble sleeping or staying asleep? Listen, I've been there. It's not just about feeling tired the next day.

It is an absolute waste of your time. Kim Cheadle is bullshitting everyone. This woman is a disgrace. She needs to resign immediately or someone else is going to get

hurt. She is incompetent and she is not an honest person. Here's the first thing. This was a viral hit this weekend. Senator Ron Johnson, a good man, been on my show many times on the possibility of a third shooter. Folks, this comes from somewhere. He's not wrong here, but it's not what you think. This is based on rock-solid sources. I mean rock-solid. You've got to trust me on this one. No one's done more to expose the deep state than me. Not going to allow you to be misled.

Check this out. So are you questioning whether or not there was a second shooter? Is that what you're questioning? Or if the shooter had a different gun? You know, I saw an extremely convincing video online. I know it's all over the place. You know, there were three distinct shots early on, followed by another five in more staccato, more rapidly fired. And then the final one, which we believe took the shooter out. How do you explain that? I don't know.

I'm not an expert. But the individual putting that video out says it clearly shows that there are at least three different weapons fired that day. There were. But again, showing you the harm in jumping out ahead. Nothing he's saying there is wrong. There were three different shooters. This is your home for breaking news.

Ladies and gentlemen, the third shot was from a local counter-sniper team, a non-secret service counter-sniper team, local police. They missed. That's the third shot. police. They missed. That's the third shot. The truth has no agenda, okay? You stay here, you will stay on target. Stay in these other places, you're going to get misled and we're going to make the same mistake we made in past things

where people, folks, there are people out there who are secretive. Listen to me, please, please. I'm going to pause here. I need you to please trust me on this. There are people out there secreting themselves into our movement and feeding nuggets of information they know to be false. They're not us. They're doing it for a reason, to distract you from the truth.

I don't know this guy's motive. Could this guy be working with other people? Maybe. I don't say what I don't know. I don't say also what I'm not going to eliminate that as a possibility because I have no evidence otherwise either. The third gunshots were from a local police department. You are going to get spun down the wrong path,

and I'm absolutely convinced there are people doing it on purpose to discredit you. You do with that what you want. And if that's not good enough for you, then this show is never for you anyway. Let's go to part two of this interview. This one, this is an open question. I'm pretty confident that in my sources

that that's an explanation for that first scenario. However, and by the way, Ron Johnson didn't say anything wrong, but he's right. There were three guns. Here's part two where he talks about this mysterious guy in a gray suit. Who this guy is, I'm not sure. And some of this information I'm getting, I'm just being candid with you. I'm not willing to stake my reputation on.

I'll pass it off to you. You do with it what you want. And by the way, the guy on, you know, social media and others the other day about me putting this information out there, it is important you have it because it's coming from sources. The veracity of the information, you guys are all strong, powerful adults. You can figure that out on your own. Here's Ron Johnson on this mysterious guy in a gray suit.

Check this out. This is the guy in the suit who walks up the ladder, goes to the roof and tells the locals, the locals send those pictures to this cell phone. Who was that person? Well, again, I'm not sure that was the guy. I think another county law enforcement gave the, the number to the other county law enforcement, the snipers to send the text. Some guy in a suit walks up the ladder. They believe you secret service. I'm not sure where they gave credentials, but that's part of it. Again, Maria, this is so preliminary. I'm issuing this. I'm providing this information,

a much more detailed timeline to prompt others to come forward. We need to complete this picture. We have a lot of puzzle pieces to fill in here. Is it odd to you that the locals were being told to send the pictures to the Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Agency, ATF? Where does ATF come in? It's very odd. The oddity starts with the fact that local law enforcement were just tasked with securing the perimeter, told to go cover that AGR building, not really told where to set up, so they set up on the second floor. They went to that AGR building at 10.30 in the morning.

Holy shit, I'm watching the chat. If there was no ladder, where'd the ladder come? Do you watch the show, bro? Again, please tune out, bird guy. I just explained that. How do you think the law enforcement people got up on the roof afterwards? That's their fucking ladder. Holy shit.

The guy drove there on a bike. You think he had a ladder? Oh, man. Man, I'm telling you, there are people in this movement who are secreting themselves in there just to mess with you. I promise you. I promise you. On the gray suit guy, there's a number of possibilities there.

I initially thought it was probably just an agent up on the roof, maybe he didn't ID himself. I don't know. However, I'm hearing from a source that it was an agent. They were sending information to the ATF for a facial ID. If it turns out to be true, I'll tell you. I'm not floating anything. I'm telling you what I heard.

If this guy turns out later to be some guy in the media who was trying to get a shot up there, a quick pick, whatever, I don't know, I'll tell you. I don't have any information otherwise on that. I'm telling you a pretty reputable source told me that was likely an agent just taking a picture for ATF facial ID. So we'll see. The truth matters, ladies and gentlemen.

Also from a source. You know, I'm going to take a quick break here. The most important, important question right now for members of Congress outside of the direct security questions I've been asking over and over. Why was there no drone? Why was there no line of sight protection for President Trump if you couldn't secure the roof? And why was he on the X in the first place? Why did you bring him out on stage if you knew a threat? This is the most important question, because I believe the Secret Service director is coordinating with the White House. the most important question because I believe the Secret Service director is coordinating with the White House. Nobody's getting fired here. Why? Because Joe Biden doesn't want to acknowledge he's the chaos president. Let me take a quick break and we'll get back to that our last break.

All right, back to the show. Notice the date on this, July 20th, a couple days ago. Folks, there are people feeding me information left and right.

It has now turned into a tidal wave. Do you know why they're feeding me information? Because Secret Service agents I know, who were proud to do what they did and did a damn good job, are horrified at the collapse of their agency and the repeated failure of managers to take the problems in the agency seriously. They are lost in DEI bullshit, manpower bullshit.

They can't get their heads out of their asses. They don't empower people. The agency has completely collapsed. Just look at the job satisfaction survey. They blame Julia Pearson and Kim Cheadle, the last two directors, excuse me, two of the last three directors who have been absolutely horrible. Is Secret Service Director Kim Cheadle, the last two directors, excuse me, two of the last three directors who have been absolutely horrible. Is Secret Service Director Kim Cheadle

using Signal to communicate with insider cronies to avoid information discovery? I'd like to know this. Maybe members of Congress should ask that question today. One of the people she may be communicating with because she's very close with this person and persons, is Anthony Bernal. Well, who's Anthony Bernal? July 15, 2024, Secret Service Director Cheeto landed job after a push by Jill, Jill, by Dr. Jill Biden's office, sources say.

They noticed she was well-liked, Kim Cheeto, by the future first lady and her most senior aides, including top advisor, Anthony Bernal. That's a good point. Justin wants to know if it's her surgical office or surgical suite, Dr. Jill. I don't know. Good question. Justin is that she is a neuros, prominent neurosurgeon, as you know. Also I'd like to know if she's communicating Kim Cheadle with Annie Tomasini, another representative from the Biden administration, very close to Joe Biden. Someone should ask that question.

By the way, you probably should remind her she's under oath. Just throwing that out there. Folks, it's really important to readdress here. Be careful where you get information going forward. Social media has become a cesspool. There are people out there planting themselves, secreting themselves into our movement. Be careful where you get information going forward. Social media has become a cesspool. There are people out there planting themselves, secreting themselves into our movement.

You know what, Justin, can you pull the Cernovich-Tucker clip? I know we're out of order here. I'm really sorry. I want you to listen to this. Mike Cernovich, a good follow on X, true social. Tucker, obviously, is a friend, did a great collaboration with him.

Maybe you don't believe me. Maybe you think I'm bullshitting you, that there are people out there on social media pretending to be conservatives. They got accounts like MAGA 1776. I'm not saying that. I don't know if that's an account or not. Don't retribute anything. You know, MAGA, you know, I love the constitution slash MAGA.

They're not us. They're doing this on purpose. There is an information warfare regime going on right now. Please do not fall for it. Be very, very careful where you get information moving forward about the Democrats, the nomination process, all of this stuff, the shooting, the attempted assassination. They are trying to spin your wheels. Listen to this. Do you think there are like lots of feds running around actually? Oh, I think there are all kinds of feds embedded within the right wing movement

right wing movement and the conservative movement you think that's real oh yeah to discredit people that was the cia they there was a book co-intel pro you can read the cia manual on how you disrupt movements which i read and what they would do the cia would do at the time they're doing it to the black panthers but now they're doing it to anybody who's deemed Christian or goes to a Catholic church, is they have various tactics. And one tactic they do is they call it stone, what do you call it when you keep talking? Filibustering. So you have a group and you'll have two different agents put in. One is going to try to fed trap you like they did in Michigan. Oh, we need to do more than just talk. We've talked for too long. It's time to take action. And then that only works on the

really desperate people who don't have anything going on, which happened post 9-11 to Muslim kids, if we're being fully honest here. This isn't a new thing happening to us. And what was us? It was happening to Muslims and a lot of conservatives didn't really care. Oh, that's true. The FBI stopped another terrorist attack. No, they didn't. They found some poor Muslim kid who was lonely, maybe mildly autistic, and they planned a whole thing for him.

Or he had non-mainstream opinions, but wasn't hurting anyone. By the way, you're allowed to have non-mainstream opinions. In fact, that's the whole point of this country is allowing you to have non-mainstream opinions. Right, so now it's our turn in the barrel. So on the the one hand they'll try to do that with low-hanging fruit on the other hand they'll have people who filibuster and make it so that nothing can really get done you see the point you see did you get the second part we know about the fed traps already we know about the Fed traps already. We know about that. The Fed napping, we know about all that.

The second part, he nailed it. There are people out there who are provocateurs on social media who want you to filibuster endlessly about things they can't prove. There's a second shooter. They have no evidence. That second shooter was a local CS guy. I just told you that. There's ballistic evidence at the scene.

They want you to go on and on knowing there will never, ever be any proof so that no one asks the real question. Why was there no drone? Who was this kid working with? Why does he have no social media presence? They don't want you asking any of those questions. They want you lost out this road, and they know people will clickbait it. So that is provocateurs assisting in the information warfare game.

I'm telling you for a fact, this, we have been the home for breaking news and everything we've told you has come out. Josh Hawley, Senator from Missouri. Whistleblowers tell me most of Trump's security detail worked in the event last Saturday. We're not even Secret Service. Totally 100% correct.

There were three Secret Service post standards. Now, keep in mind, that does not include special operations. The CAT team, the counter-assault team, the CS team, and the working shift around him. The post standards. You need to be familiar with the terminology. There is a shift. The shift travels with the president of the protectee everywhere.

I'm not going to say how many guys. That's what we would call like the bubble around him. Wherever he goes, they go. He gets on a helicopter. Some of them get on the helicopter. He lands. They land with him and get off the plane. The poststanders are at a site in advance of the president,

President Trump arriving, and they are standing post. It's very simple. The post standards are probably the largest security contingent. There were only three Secret Service post standards. The rest, upwards of 20, were from HSI, Homeland Security Investigations. I'm sure they're good folks. They have very special set of skills. They do not go through specific Secret Service training.

It's not a knock. It's just a fact. I told you that a week ago on the Monday or Tuesday show. This is a travesty. The most threatened man on earth had a cadre of three Secret Service poststanders while Dr. Jill up at an event in Pennsylvania had upwards of what, 10 to 12?

How do you explain that? And by the way, in case you think the Secret Service has gotten there, the management at least, took its head out of its ass, here's what they're appalled about. Not that President Trump's head almost exploded like a watermelon on TV from a 223 round. They're appalled by DEI rhetoric against female agents after Trump rally shooting. Folks, this is not against female agents. It's against female

agents who were physically unprepared to protect the president. Folks, Donald Trump is over six feet tall. How the hell are you going to be a human shield at 5'2"? Can you explain that? 5'2", 6 feet tall. 5'2", 6 feet tall. And let me ask you a pretty simple question. By the way, all this stuff is in this book. Again, get it from the library. Steal it from your friend.

Don't steal from your friend. Borrow it. I don't give a shit. I don't want anybody's money. Look at all the chapters of this book. The special agent mess. The evolving threats from the big six. The threat of a tactical assault on the president.

The threat of a medical emergency. Oh, look at this. Chapter seven. Chapter seven in protecting the president. Holy shit. You know what it says, Justin? Page 75. The growing threat to the president from the skies.

Crazy. Crazy. Maybe if they would have listened to me and cut the bullshit and stopped the DEI crap, maybe we wouldn't have this problem. Explain to me also, which I also go into in this treatise on how to fix this mess, why are there two sets of physical fitness standards

for men and for women? President Trump is the same height and weight. He is a big guy. He's six foot plus. He's a stocky guy. He is not, he doesn't get lighter when female agents show up. So why are there different PT standards? Please explain that to me without sounding like a total asshole.

Oh, look, December of 2013, a Washingtonian article. What it's like protecting the president. Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino tells us, we've been talking about this for table kids. Nobody wants to listen to us. All the media wants to do is bullshit people all the time.

Folks, here's a Fox report. There is one thing about this. This is interesting here. The difficulty of the CS shot. When I say CS, I'm talking about counter sniper. A Secret Service counter sniper team took out the shooter. Now, he shouldn't know how to take out the shooter at all, period, okay? That guy should not have been on the roof. However, I want you to understand that this was a really difficult shot, and that matters. That matters because if this guy missed, the local CS guy,

they did not hit him. They engaged. The Secret Service guy took him out with one shot. If they missed, it's likely President Trump would be dead right now because the shooter had more rounds left and likely would have taken out those Secret Service agents around him and Donald Trump who was taller than most of the agents

who were trying to get him off the stage. This CS guy sadly had to save the day. Again, they shouldn't have been up on the roof in the first place. I'm not absolving anyone of any responsibility. But this report, again, I told you this last week before this aired, the shot was extremely difficult. And thank God they mitigated that threat. Here's a Fox reporter now with an animation.

Check this out. Hi, Ari. Good afternoon. A source familiar with the investigation tells me that, look, it took a single shot to kill the would-be assassin Thomas Crooks. And that shot came from a Secret Service counter sniper that the source says it was he described the shot as a one in a million type of shot. This is the counter sniper could only see the top of the scope, his eye and forehead, because the lip of the AGR building that Crooks was on was obscuring that view. We're also told a local police sniper took a single shot as well,

but missed. Remember, this building was about 150 yards away from where the former president was standing on that stage, and it had a clear line of sight to the former president. Federal law enforcement sources tell Fox that while Crooks snuck up on that roof, a Butler Township Emergency Services Unit sniper team was looking out of the windows of that same building, watching for any suspicious activity. So how did Crooks get on that roof? Federal law enforcement sources tell Fox that it was initially thought he brought a ladder. However, no ladder was found on site,

and we're now told the more likely scenario is that Crooks hid his father's AR-15 near an AC unit, and then he climbed onto that AC unit to get up onto the roof of the AGR building. This, as the Wall Street Journal is now reporting, the shooter was able to fly a drone above the rally site earlier that day. The predetermined flight path, the journal reports, indicates that he flew the drone more than once to scope out the site. A federal law enforcement source tells Fox the Secret Service was not flying a drone over the rally that day. Senator Josh Hawley says multiple whistleblowers with direct knowledge have come forward saying the rally was being treated as a loose security event.

Three takeaways from that Fox clip. These are facts we now know. I told you the local sniper, that's the third shooter. There you're seeing it from the Fox clip. They missed. The Secret Service agent, a Secret Service uniformed division officer, that's this counter sniper unit.

There were no agents in there. I want to be clear. They're uniformed division officers. It's a separate division of the secret service. It was a miraculous shot. And thank God he hit him. Or I'm telling you, president Trump would be dead right now because the shooter would have

continued to engage. Third, they bring up the fact that there was no ladder. The ladder you're seeing in the pictures was put there afterwards. Enough on that. Next point. The shooter did pre-op surveillance with a freaking drone

and the Secret Service had no eyes in the sky? Are you shitting me? What is this, Romper Room? What are you kidding me? Is this Sesame Street bullshit? I have another question right now. Members of Congress, are you listening? Staffers, get ready. Take notes. Get your pens out. Where was the counter surveillance unit vulnerability

assessment? It's a document. It'll be emailed, probably printed copies as well. There are units in the Secret Service, counter surveillance units that counter surveillance. Just like you have a counter sniper unit designed to take out snipers, there are specific people out there, I'm not going to mention numbers or anything else, who are out there to detect people surveilling the site. We now know the guy was out there an hour in advance.

Where's the vulnerability assessment? The CSU, Counter Surveillance Unit, vulnerability assessment should have documented that rooftop as a vulnerability point. Is anyone in Congress going to ask for that? I want four pieces of paperwork now. I want the site post assignment log. I want the counter sniper survey. I want the counter assault team survey, the SOD survey, Special Operations Division. And I also want the CSU vulnerability assessment.

You're going to see in every one of those documents, somehow that high point was addressed, but never addressed. I guarantee you people picked it out as a vulnerability, but they did nothing about it. Nobody posted it. And they effectively left an open vehicle for President Trump to get shot.

I want you to watch a minute of this animation. If you're listening on Apple or Spotify, welcome, it's always good to have you here. Please watch us on Rumble at about the 45-minute mark. This is an animation. I think it's from at the typical liberal or something like, is it? Yeah. But this is a really kick-ass animation.

It goes on for about three minutes, but I'm not going to play the whole thing. I'm going to play the core part. About a minute to show you how many things were missed and how close we came to losing President Trump on the stage. This thing went viral. Check this out. This is the area we're going to focus in on. Here you can see the three victims that were injured by gunfire and where they were standing

in the bleachers. We're going to turn around and demonstrate exactly where these bullets came from. This model represents Thomas Crooks. His position can be seen here in this image, which illustrates exactly where he was. Turning around, we can see the path of all the bullets that were fired from this location. I placed a 10-foot red disc downrange to represent what an average shooter could hit easily. Now let's take a look at this first shot fired. Coming from our key location, bullet 1 greets President Trump's ear. This is the same bullet that hits a spectator

in the stands. We know this through video evidence. As President Trump is talking, the first shot rings out just after he says, take a look at what happened. We can see the vapor trail of a bullet strike, which is the same bullet that struck President Trump's ear a split second earlier, and this video is this location here. Back at the podium, President Trump was shot and grabbed his ear, falling to the ground as more shots rang out. In total, there were seven or eight shots, so let's rewind and watch this at regular speed. Take a look at what happened. That animation is horrifying. Folks, the Secret Service Director must resign today.

The Secret Service Director, I want you to listen to me, please. All the people that clip my videos and send them around, X, I appreciate everything you do for our content. You know who you are. Thank you very much. The Secret Service Director is going to get someone else hurt. She is clearly incompetent. She does not have the skill set to lead a complicated agency. Protection is getting very difficult in the area of drone technology, protective methodology. It is getting very difficult. If they had a manpower problem,

they should have spoken out in advance. This is really, really bad. I am deathly afraid that Donald Trump or any other protectee, Joe Biden or anyone else, we don't let our people get killed here. This isn't the third world, okay? Someone is going to get hurt. I don't know any other way to say this.

This woman is absolutely incompetent. She has no skill set to run this agency whatsoever. I'm not even convinced from now to the election that this is the last incident we're going to see. Let's hope and pray it's not. But ladies and gentlemen, we are in real trouble. All right, let's move on a little bit. Folks, I want to get back to the RNC.

The RNC was a huge success. We do have an election around the corner. Do not take this election for granted. If you think Kamala Harris or whoever she's going to pick or whoever beats her, I think Mark Kelly is probably the front runner right now for the VP nomination. We'll see. It may be Gretchen Whitmer. I wouldn't even be surprised to see Hillary Clinton, as I mentioned repeatedly.

Please do not underestimate their ability to win. The RNC was a huge success. Some people thought President Trump's speech was a little long. If you were there, I didn't think so. But, you know, everybody's entitled to an opinion on that. However, at the end of the speech, on a lighter note, it's been a heavy show. They played Nessim Dorma. Nessim Dorma, forgive me if I'm saying it wrong.

I'm not a big opera fan, to be honest with you. I don't fake the funk on anything, okay? But you ever see the movie The Sum of All Fears? Charles Payne had a representative from the Trump campaign on his show and asked about that. The Sum of All Fears, when they start taking out all the bad guys, that's playing in the background. The reason I'm playing this clip is, again, it's one of those things,

on a lighter note, I got some inside baseball on, but check this out. Before I let you go, because there's an interesting theory out there that Trump picked the last song right and Nessun Dorma to send a message to deep state actors in part because it was at the end of the movie, Some of Our Fears, All Fears. And we know that movie was about getting rid of terrorists and deep state actors. You're part of the communications team. Have you guys thought it through that much? I can either confirm or deny. It's classified.

Listen, again, quick. I don't want to waste a lot of your time, but on a lighter note, there's no connection there. President Trump loves that song. I already told you a story. If you go back and listen to my show from two years ago when me and Paula had dinner with him

at Bedminster, he just loves that song. He plays it all the time. He DJs at his places. So, hey, listen, it's great that it's out there, whatever, you know, he's going after the deep state and all, but he just loves the song, and I feel obligated to kind of give you some inside baseball.

He plays it all the time. If you know President Trump, you know that. Every time he DJs, he plays that. All right, I want to get to this. Folks, the Biden team is really struggling here. The Biden team couldn't even find any volunteers. Now the question is, you know, I'm going to skip that clip. I've thought about it, but he's out now, so I'm going to skip that clip. Folks, one of the things I told you about is that the Biden and Obama teams hate each other. I warned you about that in the past. Okay? They really can't stand

each other. Biden and Obama hate each other. I mean, viscerally hate each other. Yashir Ali, again, a pretty connected guy with sources out there, whether you like him or not. He mentions this here, that Biden is really pissed off at Obama now because he sees Obama as the puppet

master behind the scenes, and he's going to blame Obama forever for pushing him out. They dislike each other. I say that because I think that's playing in to a potential Obama-Harris endorsement as well. Obama and Harris had a really good relationship. I'm not sure it's great anymore. Harris is really known as a very difficult person to work with. She's going to have a really tough time generating a lot of excitement moving forward. The Biden label is going to be pinned to her. And folks, listen, I'm just going to be straight with you. The idea of running as a diehard liberal, which is what Kamala Harris is, has never been done successfully in modern American history. Oh, Obama. Folks, Obama ran as a centrist. I'm not

telling you he was. Obviously, he's the reason I left my job and ran for office myself. I couldn't stand what he was doing. Obama ran as a marriage between a man and a woman. He ran as a pretend fake centrist. Now, we knew he was a crazy leftist, but the Democrats didn't. Mondale got crushed. Anyone running from the far left has gotten smoked. Kamala Harris is a hardcore leftist because Americans in general, in general, can't stand the idea of at least running on a bigger government. A lot of Democrats like spending on a bigger government. They want government involved in their lives. I don't know if you caught this, but I did this interview.

You get that Russell Brand saying, I was on Russell Brand's show, this one kind of nuclear. I was at the RNC, and I just, Russell had asked me a question about the role of government in our lives. And ladies and gentlemen, this is why liberals never win national elections. People don't want, they don't, they at least don't want to be told that they need government involved in their lives. Even some Democrats, check this out.

Men can be mercenary. There's an evil in the world that'll never be purged your only goal is a governing system in the government you're thankfully now a part of is to control the latent evil that exists in men your goal is not to make my life better your goal is to get the out of my way and let me make my own life better you don't know about. You don't know anything about my business. You don't know anything about my health condition, about the educational goals I have for my kid. Get out of my way.

Give me police services. Give me a decent, strong military, a court system, and please, God, I don't use the name as vain, get the fuck out of my way. I don't want you to do shit for me. Shut the fuck up and go there and do nothing. Am I allowed to curse on your show? I'm going to use some truths to say no, but we need a little more clarity on what your perspective is on this subject.

I think Nigel is a good, uh, Nigel Farage, of course, is to my left, a good English gentleman along with Russ. They were kind of surprised, but folks, it's why you have almost no chance of winning a national election as a far leftist. You have none. Now, I had warned you in the past, have I not?

If those of you flagged it, you can unflag it now, that there was going to be some form of an October surprise in the form of an October surprise in the form of a new conspiracy theory. Do you remember what I said? Anyone in the chat remember? I said the theory going out there by the left right now, and it's not really a theory, this is going to make it up,

it's going to be Donald Trump and his team have business interests in Russia. That's why they're handing Ukraine to Russia. Oh, look, here's Fisher King, an account on Twitter I'll read. Sam Harris just had Ann Applebaum in his podcast. Deep state Ann Applebaum? Yes, same person. Misinformation queen? Same person.

The latest Russia conspiracy theory is that Elon Musk has business interests in Russia and has spoken to Putin. Elon then talked to David Sachs, who spoke with J.D. Vance, and explains why Vance doesn't want to spend money in Ukraine. He notes, I don't know how you spin these theories

without feeling embarrassed. They don't care about embarrassment. Did I not tell you? Now you're again a few months ahead of the news cycle. This isn't mine. It's from him. And I'm going to put it out there. That's going to be the theory.

J.D. Vance is connected to this guy and they have business interests over there and they want Russia to win. I told you they were just going to make this up and it's already floating out there right now. Folks, today is this has been the craziest eight days I have ever seen. I have not been involved in a political cycle where in just a little over a week, we nearly lose a future president, former president. The vice presidential nominee is picked. A convention happens which changes the political calculus. A president says he's not going to run for re-election. And they've already declared a

de facto nominee on the other side all in eight days. What the hell is the encore? I don't even know. Stay on this hearing today. Do not go anywhere because tomorrow when this hearing is over, I'm going to go through each and every bullshit theory Kim Cheadle is spinning up on Capitol Hill, the Secret Service Director, and I'm going to make sure she resigns

because people are in danger and she's the cause of it. Thanks again for tuning in. I'll be back here in the radio show on Rumble, rumble.com slash Bongino in a few minutes.
