Big show today. Another Tucker tape just dropped. Proving again, my point for the thousandth time. I'm telling you, this is not Fox. This isn't Fox. They are not releasing these tapes. Now I'm 100% sure of it. Not 99.

Is it? Are you sure about that? Jim, no, you have to ask Jim. Jim's actually here. Maybe. It's kind of early in the morning for me. I rarely, I'm not a day drinking kind of guy. Only when I'm hanging out

with my orthodontics friend in Miami do I ever do any day drinking. Day drinking is rough because by nine o'clock at night, you're finished. There's no going out to dinner. There's no nothing. This guy told me you get a little nap-a-roo in and you're good to go. Not me. Maybe even my 20s. I'm done by four. Yeah, me too. Yeah. I mean, I'm just being nice at nine trying to sound a little tougher, but you're right. All right. So Biden's computer's malfunctioning again. The man can barely speak in coherent sentences anymore. You know, listen, the bothersome thing about this whole thing, besides the fact we have a president of the United States that's getting cognitive disrepair, who holds the key to the nuclear codes. The obvious bad,

really bad part about this is people around the world are watching. Folks, I don't know about you, but I'm really concerned about the potential for just an explosion of world war watching. Folks, I don't know about you, but I'm really concerned about the potential for just an explosion of world war soon. I was reading an article in the Wall Street Journal today. This is in the show rundown I gave to the guys, but the gist of it is this, that Russia and China are now all in with the nuclear Iran. They figure once Iran goes nuclear, the Saudis are going to go nuclear. And basically in 10 years, we're going to be looking at a nuclear proliferation cascade and the potential for World War VII. Yeah, after the other world wars, we start in between, between Russia, China, Taiwan,

and everywhere else. We're in real trouble. Everybody's watching. They see that this guy is clearly melting down. Here he is yesterday. He's at this award ceremony at the White House, and he's trying to pronounce a few names. I mean, I hate to even start the show with this stuff. I want to get to the Tucker thing and some other stuff going on, but I just want to show you this guy's computer is just completely melted down. And this is a critical week. We've got title 42 about to expire. There was a human

invasion going on at our Southern border right now that is going to get 10 times worse this Thursday. We got the debt ceiling crisis. We got china saber rattling and we got the hunter biden thing going down and we got a guy who can't even pronounce a name here take a look at this i honored a group of trailblazing artists with national medals of arts and humanities the group included groundbreaking asian americans like is like Vera Wang and Joan Shanga Kowalo. I think I pronounced it correctly. She can call me Joe Bidden. No, no. She'll, unlike you, she probably has a frontal lobe

that actually functions correctly and she'll call you Joe Biden. Why do they keep giving this guy speeches to make? Just the first name from now on right joe just use initials yeah i'd like to thank js the guy clearly can't talk please stop him from talking the losses keep piling up someone by the way insulted my elbow in the chat room i forgot but thank you it looked like a woman's name she said i have a really ugly of course i have an ugly elbow things been operated on like 20 times, folks. What do you want?

Look at this thing. Scar this side. Scar that side. Scar under here. Scar over there. I'm like full of scars. One of these days, I don't want to do a Geraldo thing. One of these days, I'm going to show you what I look like without this shirt on.

You're going to be like, oh my gosh. You have no idea how many scars I have. None. I'm serious between the cancer thing, the surgeries and these fatty tumors I had taken out because they were, they hurt bad. I'm just, I look like Patrick Swayze in road. Remember roadhouse when he, when he pulls it like, oh my God, that has scars everywhere all over. i'm like one big scar box zipper one of these days i'll think about it's bad it's really bad i'll show you one day only for you guys in the chat room and you'll see you want to see ugly and you'll see ugly my

skin is a mess so uncensored that'll be on the unfiltered show i'm telling you you're going to be like holy moses what happened to you brother there a lot of stuff. I've had a lot of surgeries, like 19 of them. This is a big week though. We need a president with a functioning frontal lobe. We don't have one. We have a rotting bag of oatmeal in the White House who's quickly turning into a carcass. Look at this guy. The guy can barely talk. The amazing thing is, what's the age difference? How old is Bernie Sanders? Can you get Jim? Look that up for me. I think he is Bernie Sanders, 81. And how old is Biden? The age difference between them. Now, listen, I'm obviously not a Bernie fan.

He's Joe and I've been making fun of Bernie for as long as this show has been on the air. Bernie's, how old is Biden? I just want to be, I want to be sure to, Biden, is Biden younger? Okay, so Biden's 80's 80 folks Bernie Sanders was awful as this guy's politics are believe me they're awful when you hear him talk he doesn't he sounds dumb but not confused you know there's a difference Bernie Sanders says dumb things but he doesn't sound confused about what he's saying you know Biden can't even speak. Biden looks like he's 100, and Bernie looks like

he's closer to neurologically 70. I know, Trent's a good point. He makes a good point that Trump's only a few years younger than Biden. And for as much as Democrats don't like Trump, nobody argues that the guy's cognitively there. I've spoken to Trump. I'm not name dropping. Who cares? He's got a lot of friends. We're not best buddies, but we know each other pretty well. When you talk to Trump, you never get the impression he's not sharp ever, ever. Matter of fact, he talks so much. Sometimes the joke with me and my wife is you can never finish a thought. So you got to go there with a list and you got to say, Mr. President, here's what I need to talk about because he'll just go. We need a guy with a functioning frontal lobe.

Because this debt ceiling crisis is going to get worse. I just want to cover this briefly because this is going to come to a head very soon. The United States has the potential to run out of money to pay some of its debt. And folks, I got a lot of people in the chat who question what I'm telling you. You have to understand. There is not enough tax revenue coming into the government to finance everything the government's spending money on. We are almost a trillion dollars short and the fiscal year isn't even over yet. They don't have enough money.

A couple of people question, oh, Dan, we'll pay our, but no, we will not. We will not. That's a government spending issue. I've been advocating for a balanced budget amendment for a long time. But the issue is very real. This isn't a fake issue. There are interest payments due. There are payments due that they will not meet, which, by the way, will cause a crisis. Now, if you were a sound, sane person, unlike Biden, the solution to this is simple. Well, let's not spend a lot more money we don't have, and's get a lid on spending now. That way we cannot go bankrupt. The White House doesn't

want to do any of that. Here, listen to Karine Jean-Pierre. In the single dumbest example I have ever heard about the debt ceiling from a woman who is the single dumbest human being to ever occupy the position of White House press secretary ever. Here she is trying to explain the debt ceiling crisis, and she comically drops a big L. Check this out. If you buy a car, you are expected to pay the monthly payments. If you buy a home, you are expected to pay the mortgage every month. That is the expectation.

That is the spending that you put forth or spending that you may have done before. And now you're paying it every month. If you do not pay your car payment, if you do not pay your mortgage payment, then your credit is going to be bad. It's going to hurt your credit. So let's look at Congress for a second. This is spending that they've already done. They've already spent. Let's not forget the $2 trillion Trump tax cuts that they were willing and happy to vote for. So we're telling them or saying to them, do your job. Pay for something that you've already spent on. That's it. This is spending that has already occurred. They need to do the right thing that has been done 78 times since 1960. It's that simple. It is very, very simple. It is the right thing to do. It is their constitutional duty. It is not complicated at all. Why doesn't that work

for student loans? Jim just said the same thing. Jim just said the exact same thing. It's so weird because when people ask a reach out, be your question like, Hey, those people accumulated their own student loan debt. Why don't they pay them off? She's like, no,

no, no, they shouldn't have to pay it off. It's an obligation of all of us to pay off. Now she's talking about credit card debt and she completely loses that. They want to pay off people's student loans, but the example is even dumber. You're correct. You're not wrong. The example is even dumber. You know, for Kareem Jean-Pierre and the liberals out there, for the conservatives,

just deal with me, especially in the chat. Deal with this for a second. This is the equivalent of we have $30 trillion in debt. The United States economy only produces $30 trillion in output every year. So that's a little complicated for dumbass, imbecile liberals who can't understand basic math. So let's make it simple. Let's analogize it in a micro setting to a household. Use simple numbers. You've got a household that makes $30,000 a year in revenue, right? That's what they generate in value, okay? They have a credit card debt of $30,000. They owe every single thing they make in a year. Now, the credit card company is going to go to them and say,

hey, we're going to put a lid on your spending because you're in debt. You're probably not going to pay back, correct? Now, if the person comes back like Kareem Jean-Pierre and Joe Biden and submits a budget to the credit card company, what they're going to spend next year, and they plan on spending $1, more dollars than they take in next year, adding a thousand to the, not only not paying the 30,000, but given the big double barreled F you baby, giving them the,

I'm not paying you shit. I'm not paying you anything. I'm not giving you squat. Matter of fact, I'm going to run up $1,000 more debt next year. The credit card company is going to say, ah, double barrel back, baby. You get own gods. You get nothing. F you loser. You get nothing. That's what's going to happen. That's what's happening now. Joe Biden's come to the table with a budget that produces even more debt next year. These people don't understand basic math. They don't understand basic math. She knows exactly what she's doing.

By the way, with Biden, there's always a video. There's always a video. Every single time with Biden, there's a video. I don't know if he's too old to remember what he said in the past or if he just doesn't give a damn what he said in the past. But here's Biden on the debt ceiling in the past where he doesn't want to negotiate now. He said, I'm not negotiating.

Give me all the spending I want or I'm just going to let the United States default, right? Here he is back in 2011 saying, hey, listen, man, you know, you got to negotiate if it's my way or the highway, you're going to get the highway here. Take a look. How can you explain the fact that grown men and women are unwilling to budge up till now? And still some of them are still unwilling to budge by taking an absolute position, my way or no way. That's not governing. That's no way to govern. You can't govern that way.

This is a cycle. I predict to you that a lot of those new members who came here with my way or the highway, they'll either be on the highway or they'll learn that they have to have compromise. Newsy in the chat wants to know why I'm so uptight today. Because I woke up this morning and I had a little bit of a black cloud this morning. If something happened, I was a little bit in a funk this morning. And I got to tell you, man, the country degenerating at this rapid rate has me even more pissed off. Folks, this is just like straight up bullshit. I mean, let's just call it what it is.

That's why we're going to do this segment coming up next, like this week and dumb Democrat stuff. Do you realize how dumb these, everything they do, and I'm not talking about the ones who want to destroy the country, like the liberals who are doing this part. We get that. We get that. We understand they want to destroy the country. Just leave the, why are we leaving them out of the argument?

Because it doesn't require any explaining. The things they're doing on the economy, healthcare, and education, they're doing to destroy the country. It requires no further explanation. What bothers me isn't them. I understand them and we fight them. What bothers me are the useful idiots. The liberals out there who are too stupid to realize they're destroying the country.

The things they do that are just so freaking insane that like a normal person would, I woke up this morning and I'm like, on the economy, they're like, let's tax people a whole bunch more. I'm hoping that eventually it's going to lead to prosperity because we can figure out how to spend their money better than they can. And then when you ask simple common sense questions like, so you're suggesting taking more of my money and giving it to some moron dipshit in the government, you're suggesting to me that doing that, that that's going to make me more prosperous. So then I ask basic questions like, well, why don't you voluntarily pay more taxes

then? Because if giving your money to the government is going to make you and everyone richer, why don't you give more? Oh, I'm not going to give more. What are you talking about? Oh, you're not. So giving money to the government makes everyone richer, except you don't want to do it voluntarily. You want to force others to do it. You know, education, the same thing. Oh, my kids go into a crap public school.

So let's just pour more money into the crap public school rather than allowing my kid to go to an actual good school that's figured out how to educate kids. It just pisses me off, folks. I'm sorry. I'm in a really salty mood today. And it's coming out because we can fix all this stuff tomorrow. I mean, this is simple. Look at this Washington Times article. The newsletter today, it only has a few articles, but they're good ones. Bongino.com slash newsletter. Read this article about the deficit. They're good ones. Bongino.com slash newsletter.

Read this article about the deficit. This is simple math. To dumbass liberals, this is simple math. You can look at this yourself. Since the start of the fiscal year, the government's collected $2.6 trillion and spent $3.614 trillion for a deficit of $928 billion. During the same period last year, the deficit was just $360 billion. It's just simple math. It's simple. It's the math I told you in the credit card example with the family. The family makes 30K. They owe 30K. They're going to the credit card and saying, hey, not only are we not going to give you any money back to pay off our debt,

we're going to run up a thousand more dollars. going to give you any money back to pay off our debt. We're going to run up a thousand more dollars. The only people who don't get this are dumb ass liberals. I'm not talking about the intentional destruction crowd. They want this to happen. Believe me, that's a good chunk of them. I'm talking about the idiot Democrats who go in and pull the lever for the Democrats and don't understand basic freaking math. All right, moving on. I know the economic stuff. It just, oh man, it buries in like a tick and just gets under my skin. Because once you learn about economics, even basic econ 101, you will scratch your head for the rest of your life how anyone votes Democrat. I'm as serious as a heart attack. All right, I want to get to this

Tucker video because again, it's going to prove my point. I'm not taking sides. I'm covering this as a news event because I'm pulling myself out of the story, extracting myself. Fox, Tucker, these videos are clearly not being leaked by Fox. I was right. And I'm telling you with this latest leak, now you can take that to the bank. You'll see why coming up in a second. Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in.

Thanks, Blackout Coffee. We appreciate it. You can tell I had a few cups today, huh? In my Bongino report. Coffee mug. That's right. It's a new show going forward. He's like, what happened today?

He has no idea. He's like, I can't believe this show is going in this direction. It's a good thing for me. So, did this talk of it. It just came out. It's 1121 Eastern Time and 28 seconds. If you're listening to us live in the live stream here, video just dropped. It's another Tucker leak video. Now, this is a video where Tucker, in between segments on the show,

is talking about how some employees of Fox may have the woke pronouns in, I don't know, an email or whatever it is. I don't know. I didn't have that with my producers on my team, but that they're wokesters and there's some lefties. Now, I want to ask you this, just common sense. Put your feelings aside about this case for a second. Don't get emotional about it. Let's do reason for a second because it's hard. I get it.

I'm totally with you. You can tell I'm an emotional guy too. Fox is struggling right now with ratings, especially with their conservative audience, furious that Tucker left. especially with their conservative audience, furious that Tucker left. This video makes Tucker look like a warrior against wokeism and makes Fox look like, you know, they have some lefties there that they probably should, you know, be careful about, right? How does that make Fox look good? I'm just saying, you tell me. Watch the video. On the other side, we'll talk about it. Check this out. I did. I talked to her at great length. It was actually pretty funny.

I said, you know, oh, I said I she tried to get I was like, she's got a lot of liberals working over there. And, you know, they see this as war and we're the main force on the other side. And like, that's crazy. If you've got pronouns in your Twitter bio, you shouldn't work here because we can't trust you because you're on the other side. And she goes, well, who? And I said, I'm not going to name names because I don't know who did it. And I'm definitely not going to cast dispersions on someone unfairly. Just because you're liberal doesn't mean you did this. It does mean you shouldn't work here.

And Roger would never put up with this shit. Why would you do that? Do you know what I mean? They see this as war. It's like, I'm not that I'm an actual liberal. Like I'm totally fine being like our makeup artist is like a screaming lefty. No, but I'm not that way. It's, you know, but they are that way. And I said, I'm not ashamed of anything I said. You now look like you recently had COVID.

I did. You look fresh-faced and healthy. But do you know what I mean, Justin? I don't know. If you've got like that horrible guy

who was just horrible who was Judge Jeanine's guy, I couldn't... Yeah, that guy. He's like a screaming left-wing lunatic. Why does he work here? What?

He totally dicked over his anchor and then we expect he's not going to dick over the network. Like, I don't have specific information on it, but I would. It's just. Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. It's like I'm always telling I'm telling my children like you know what the truth

is you can feel it don't lie to yourself bp sniper in the chat wants a nickname for for me i like dark mode dan i use dark mode on my phone because i don't like blue light i like that so bp i think we're gonna go with do i get a vote in this i mean this is my nickname but you never get to pick your own nickname right only tools pick your but i gotta I got to vote at least. I like dark mode, Dan. How does that help Fox? And no, I'm not distracted by the Tucker thing. The other gentleman who brought that, not at all. There's something going on here that obviously all of us don't have the details with. Who is leaking this stuff? That is 100% not a Fox lead. Listen, there's something I know here that out of respect for a conversation someone asked to keep, if you asked me to keep it personal, I keep stuff personal.

I'm not going to sell anybody out. I'm not a liar. Okay. I tell you, I'm not going to say I'm going to, I'm telling you, this is not, maybe, I don't know. Maybe some of them were in there early on this. No way. Nope.

No way. You guys fight it out in the chat room on that. I'm telling you, there is no way that's a Fox League. Zero chance. Not one, not zero, zero, five, zero. Somebody leaked that. That does not hurt. How does that hurt Tucker?

How did you, please explain to me how Tucker taking on the woke pronoun warriors hurts. It makes him look like a rock star. How does that hurt Tucker? Now, if the conversation was the other way around, it'd be different. Oh yeah. You know,

pronouns, we should refer to them as G, Z. It's the right thing to do. Everybody be like, wait, what? I thought this guy believed in the,

you know, the rules of the English language. Nope. That makes him look like a rock star. There is no way that's a leak. All right, moving on. This is This Week in Dumb Democrat Ideas. Here are a lot of other stories that are rolling around out there you may not have heard about, but you need to.

First, here's Biden yesterday. This just epitomized. This is what I'm talking about. If you want to know what really turned Dark Mode Dan on this morning, it was this story. Now, I get it. A lot of you out there watching are like, F this stupid story about airlines. Who the hell cares about airline ticket reimbursements? You're probably like, they suck.

And airlines do suck. Listen, I've flown a lot, like a lot, a lot. I promise there isn't a person in this audience who's been screwed over by airlines as much as me. Maybe as much, but not more. I flew in the Secret Service 300 days out of the year sometimes on the detail. I'm like a million mile member. I have sat in more airports for delayed flights and canceled flights than anybody. So if anyone has reason to gripe, it's me.

and cancel flights than anybody. So if anyone has reason to gripe, it's me. But this stupid thing by Biden yesterday reminds me of how Democrats, and this is why I love you in the audience, they never think things through. Biden knows people are pissed off at airlines, as they should be. So Biden comes out and gives this speech yesterday, and he's like, listen, we're going to make them pay for this, this, this, this, and this.

And of course course liberals and some people don't understand economics are like yeah awesome where do you think the money's going to come from to pay for this here take a listen yourself this is liberalism in one soundbite i'm announcing a second critical step today to protect american consumers later this year my administration will propose a historic new rule that will make it mandatory, not voluntary, but mandatory for all U.S. airlines to compensate you with nails, hotels, taxis, ride shares, and rebooking fees, and cash, miles, and or travel vouchers whenever they're the ones to blame for the cancellation of the delay. And that's all on top of refunding the cost of your ticket.

Airline passengers in Canada, for example, the European Union, other places already get these compensations. And guess what? It works. Folks, I may piss off a lot of you out there, but I'm never going to lie to you. This is the single dumbest mother Idea I have ever seen in my life Or heard about So the airlines now Who are going to screw you over

Because that's just what they do Because most of you don't have a choice Weather, they blame the weather You look, there's blue skies You're like, flights cancelled the weather Sir, there's blue skies from here to Idaho To weather, we heard in seven days, it could rain.

They can screw you over. And we're, we're stuck. There's a, it's gotta be, it's gonna have to be some market solution in the future, right? You think the government's going to fix this.

So now they're going to mandate. No, no, they've got to pay for this and they've got to pay for that. Well, what's going to happen? Of course you think that's free. The price,

your tickets just going to go up. Now, if any of you doubt me, which you can, I am not here to go up. Now, if any of you doubt me, which you can, I am not here to bolt anyone. I'm not here for that. If any of you doubt me that the cost of your ticket will now go up and you're going to be paying for these hotel rooms,

whether you stay in them or not, because they're going to charge you for other people's hotel rooms. Watch the cost of a ticket. If this passes, if it passes, watch the average cost of an airline ticket jump by probably five to 10% and come back and thank me later. Now you're going to pay for a hotel. You could have paid for yourself on every airline ticket, whether you stay in one or not. Guaranteed. This is the Democrats. This is the Democrats.

They trade marginal solutions for black and white solutions that make everything worse. Here's another in this week in dumb Democrat ideas, and there's always a lot of them. Guys, I've asked you this before about this kind of stuff, the segregation thing, right?

Let me get to that in a second. Keep that in mind. But you're giving me a hint here? I know, we're running a little late, but- I get it. The MCATs, I took the MCATs, tried to get into medical school, didn't make it, went to business school later. Who cares? The Daily Caller's got a cool article up, though. Dangerous trend. Medical schools are ditching standardized tests in the name of diversity. One of these schools I went to, the City University of New York, they're ditching these standardized tests because they want a more diverse medical school.

You know what I want in a medical school? This is crazy, Joe. I want a doctor who can crack my chest open and save my life if I need it. I really don't give a what he looks like. I just don't care. I don't care if he's black, Hispanic, Asian. I don't even care if he's from planet Earth. If we find aliens like that movie V who are non-lizards and want to come down here and are super smart and are the best surgeons, knock them dead, baby.

Fix my elbow. I don't care. My elbow surgeon was a Hispanic guy. His last name was Flores. I promise I never went was like, oh, my gosh, is that a Spanish guy? He was just a Hispanic guy. His last name was Flores. I promise I never went was like, oh my gosh, is that a Spanish guy? He was just a nice guy. I really didn't give a shit. And I don't think anybody else who knows him does either.

Okay. I really, matter of fact, it never even occurred to me until I read this stupid article this morning. This is where we're going. Can that guy actually operate on someone's heart? No, but he definitely fits our diversity, equity, and inclusion. By the way, one quick idea. I got to get to his spot, but one quick idea.

Stop calling it diversity, equity, and inclusion. We need to change it to diversity, inclusion, and equity because this is the die agenda because you will all die eventually from terrible medical care if this stuff goes forward. So no more DEI now. Now it's D-I-E. Don't ever refer to it as DEI. Another thing coming up next, segregation. It's back.

Unbelievable how, again, the conservative movement is now the only party in America fighting for liberty, freedom, and prosperity of all, regardless of skin color. It is out. It is. It is really incredible. We got to this point. Amazing. All right.

Now, I always have to do this little test, unfortunately, because we're dealing with morons on the left these days who want to bring these awful ideas back because this is This Week in Dumb Democrat Ideas. Joe, segregation. Yes, Dan.

Pretty bad idea, correct? Kind of racist of racisty real crappy idea Dan real crappy idea Guy not a fan Jim Jim is definitely against it so now we have we have four votes today Joe we got one extra the interview Mike you're listening on the radio I'm sure back in the Mike Mike says yes he's standing by

that's five votes and segregation is a really awful genuinely immoral evil idea not to the lefties the lefties he's standing by that's five votes that segregation is a really awful genuinely immoral evil idea not to the lefties the lefties want to bring it back in the name hilariously in the name of coexistence so you're driving around in your prius or whatever it is, and you've got your coexistent tolerance sticker on the car as you drive to a segregated graduation ceremony in college. I'm not messing with you. Articles in the newsletter, Washington Times.

Very inclusive, Guy. Die. Again, it's the die agenda. Diversity, inclusion, and equity. agenda, diversity, inclusion, and equity. Colleges expand segregated graduation events. I can't take it. These are people going, wait, keep that up. I want to mention these colleges, just so in case you think this is just in like, you know, liberal states, they're segregating these things by race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and even income. This is insane. This is freaking crazy pills time. Here's some of the universities doing this. Georgetown, the University of Oklahoma. Holy Moses, the governor there. You better get on that. Illinois State, Grand Valley State University in Michigan. They're the growing numbers of schools holding special ceremonies

for black graduates in upcoming weeks as the academic year winds down. Folks, these people driving to these things in their Prius, I'm not kidding. They have the coexist and the tolerance bumper sticker on their car. And it never strikes them once that the exact opposite thing they're doing right now by recreating one of the single dumbest ideas in human history. The idea that we should segregate people according to some completely irrelevant characteristic like the melanin content of your skin. All you black people go over there. Non-black people here. Poor people here. Rich people here. They love this stuff. Again, you want to see why I woke up this morning super freaking salty, ready to take on this show today?

Because I'm tired of living with dipshits. That's why. We live in a country of 330 million people where there's like 40 million dipshits. I'm really sorry. And I'm tired of putting up with dipshits. I really, and you should be too. You should be too. It's really hard to have to accept this every single day.

These are the same people, by the way, that if you, you should do a test. You can't, because you'll get, even though, That if you You should do a test You can't because you'll get Even if you say in advance you're kidding You'll still get cancelled which is the irony of the story You should do a test I'm going to send out a tweet in a few minutes It's going to be an integrity test for lefties

I support segregated graduations If you're a liberal they'll be like Yeah awesome Diversity, equity, inclusion If you're a conservative they'll be like That guy's awesome. Diversity, equity, inclusion. If you're a conservative, they'll be like, that guy's a red cancel, lat mofo right away, right now.

What is it? I thought that was a good thing. We're living with freaking psychopaths, folks. Psychos. We got, we got to like, how many people in the chat? I think it's a tip of's tip water wow look at that 42 000 love you folks so glad tens of thousands of people joining us every day we got an election coming up and as i said to you the other day listen i'm a sinner man i'm fallible like everyone

else okay i screw stuff up i got way too excited about the midterms. I really believe the rotting bag of oatmeal, who was the single worst president, most destructive force we've ever had in the white house. Period. People tell me, Oh, Woodrow Wilson. He was bad,

but Obama was bad. We've never seen anything like this guy. Anything. Just look at the border on Thursday. We've never seen anything like this guy. I'm sorry. I know. I know full well about Carter,

Woodrow Wilson, everything. Carter actually had some good things. There's not a single redeeming characteristic to this buffoon. But I got way too excited about the midterms. I thought it was going to be a blowout. It wasn't. It was quite disappointing. It wasn't as horrible as everybody made it out to be, but I'm not getting ahead of myself. Having said that, the polling right now for Biden is just straight up apocalyptic. Real clear reports on it right here. Biden trails both Trump and DeSantis in Iowa.

Biden's trailing Trump in a number of national polls now, too. This guy's in real trouble, folks. I bring this up, though, for one reason. It's for the opposite reason, not to take a victory lap, because we haven't won jack squat. There's an election coming up in a year and a half, and I'm not doing this again. Be wary. I don't care what these polls say. I don't give a damn.

If polls start coming out with Trump up 40 points on Biden. I don't remember. We were told last time, Joe, the house, we're going to take back 40 seats. We're going to have 270. We're going to have 60.

How would the Washington race is in play? All these. No, I'm not doing that again. How would the Washington race is in play? All these. No, I'm not doing that again. I'm not doing that again. Now's the time to start scaring out of people. That's it. Sorry. I don't care if Trump's up 40.

Treat it like he's down 40. Please, let's not make this mistake again. There's nothing wrong with making a mistake. You know what's something wrong with? My whole point of my next book, The Gift of Failure. I read chapter four and five last night. It's very forgivable to make mistakes. It's unforgivable to make that same damn mistake again the second time knowing the outcome. Be wary because you're going to see more of this. Here's Donna Brazile. You remember Donna Brazile. Now, again, full disclosure,

I knew Donna at Fox. We didn't agree on anything. We had some spirited conversations in the green room. Donna never disrespected me, but just like I told Nancy Mace how I felt the other day in the breakers, we had a respectful conversation. I used to tell Donna too. And I can tell you, knowing Donna from behind the scenes of Fox, she is a huge Biden fan. She loves Joe Biden. Biden fan. She loves Joe Biden. I bring that up because if Donna Brazile is going on TV saying that Biden's in real trouble with these polls, Biden's in real trouble with these polls. Here, take a listen. I can only imagine what it's like inside the White House now looking at the numbers in our poll coming out this morning. George, I was told I could not send the poll around to after 12 midnight. I sent it out at 12.2 because it kept me up and I thought they should wake up and look at those numbers. It's sober in a sense, George, that the coalition that elected Joe Biden with the historic numbers that we saw in 2020, that coalition right now is fragmented. Folks, listen, I'm telling you, if Donna Brazile, who I'm telling you, she loves this guy. I had many conversations with her about

how awful Biden was. She really loves Biden. If she's telling you that this guy is in real trouble, however, be wary. Nobody start popping the corks. It's your job to do the 10, 10, 10. Book it, write it down. Get a pen. Everybody, write a pen. Here we go. 10, 10, 10. Book it, write it down. Get a pen. Everybody, write a pen. Here we go. 10, 10, 10. Circle it. What's that? You have from now to election day. You have over a year. There's no excuse for you not to do this.

I don't have time to be cute with anyone here. There's no excuse for you not to do this. You need to call 10 people and make sure they're going to vote on election day. You need to email 10 people and you need to post 10 social media messages from now to election day. If everybody in this audience does that, that is a force multiplier that could change an election. 10, 10, and 10. You have a year and a half to do it. There is no good excuse to not do that. Phone, email, social media posts. Done. No excuse. All right, let me get to my last sponsor. Now I want to get to my, I just want to, I had a theory.

Joe, do you remember the Trump show your ass theory? How he would make the liberals show their asses to everyone? It happened again. And they're confused about it at Axios. Of all my theories about Trump, the show your ass theory is my favorite theory of all. Because it's proven right over and over. Let me get to my last sponsor, MyPillow.com.

I don't want to hear anything about how people, oh, we're going to smoke these guys. We're not smoking squat. thing about how people, oh, we're going to smoke these guys. We're not smoking squat. You'll be smoking doobies with Samuel in the quad taken over by lefties if we don't win this election. Axios sums this up perfectly. Axios is a left-leaning outlet. Not as left as Politico, but still leans left, right? They put this out this morning. They call it the Trump law of inverse reactions. I call it the Trump show your ass effect. They say this. They say why it matters. Listen to this closely. Everybody paying attention? This is cool. They're just figuring this out. Trump's grip over Republicans seems stronger than ever, and chances of beating President Biden are as high as ever. Between the lines,

this dynamic is similar to the stunning election of 2016. Call it the Trump law of inverse reactions. Everything that would seem to hurt Trump only makes him stronger. Eureka. He said it right. Eureka, they found the gold. Joe, how long have we been talking about this? Forever. How would Trump, like legit forever since trump has been on the political scene i called it the show your ass effect because of this nobody trusts the media so trump's the first guy to take on the media head on rather than concede that their stories or concede that they're correct or just leave them alone the old way to do it was when the media attacks you don't attack people who buy ink by the barrel anyone in in media could have told you, oh, just leave it alone. Yeah, but they're lying about me.

Leave it alone. You're just going to draw attention to it. That was every political consultant on earth would have told you that. Trust me, I was there. I ran for office. Trump said, no, not only am I going to highlight the story, I'm going to discredit the story and then make it a story about how the media lied about me and they're the fake news. That may seem revolutionary. In other words, oh, look, Trump colluded with the Russians as a pee-pee tape. In the past, they'd say, leave it alone. It's not worth fighting. It's crap. Just say it's a lie and move on. Trump would talk about his own story. How many times you heard from Trump's mouth? Right, guys? Russia, Russia, Russia.

Yo, you met Russia, Russia, right? Yeah. Huh? Right guys? Russia, Russia, Russia. Yo, you met Russia, Russia, right? Yeah. Trump would bring up the story and he turned it on them to be like, look how fake these people are. They made up the Russia thing and it worked. So what's the show your ass part? The media wasn't used to that. They didn't know how to respond. It was like an extinction burst. You know, like you put a dollar for a candy bar and a machine, it doesn't come out. You start shaking the machine as if it's going to do anything. The media started shaking the machine. They didn't know what to do. The anger rose, the muscles tensed up. They'd never

been talked to like that. So instead of dialing it down and stopping lying, they doubled down on the lying and started making up even more story. There's a call with Ukraine, impeach him. Mike Flynn tried to talk to the Russian ambassador. He just started making up more story. There's a call with Ukraine, impeach him. Mike Flynn tried to talk to the Russian ambassador. He just started making up more story, which just discredited them more. Axios is just finding that out now, that every time the media reports on some negative Trump event, people see it as a story about the garbage media rather than a story about Donald Trump. Freaking genius. Axios should have listened to us a couple about Donald Trump. Freaking genius. Axios should have listened to us a couple years ago.

As Guy said, Eureka. Eventually you find the gold after a lot of digging. They found it yesterday. You're not going to stop this guy now. You've already burned all your credibility. If you would have reported on Donald Trump honestly for the last seven years. And then come out with some bombshell this week. If you would have fairly reported on the guy and given him a chance. Say you come out with some bombshell this week, if you would have fairly reported on the guy and given him a chance, say come out with some bombshell. Donald Trump punched his grandmother in the face or whatever it is. You know what? That would probably dent.

That would hurt, man. But nobody trusts you at all. Everything negative you say becomes a story about just how you'd say, hey, Trump, and you're probably a liar. By the way, I warned you about this too, NBC News. These criminal and civil cases against Trump, these cases are civil, to be clear, these ones, but there are criminal ones ongoing too. There's only one purpose there. Folks, the purpose of it isn't even to put Trump in jail, although I don't deem that unlikely.

That could happen. Don't think for a second that won't happen. However, that's not the purpose. If it happens, great. They'd love to see him in jail because they're sick people. They want Trump silenced on the campaign trail. You're already seeing it here.

Trump prohibited from posting evidence in a hush money case to social media judge rules. I warned you about this. I warned you about this. The media has this love affair with censorship that people are finally starting, finally starting to digest and take in. I hate to put up two days in a row of RFK Jr. Because again, I would never vote for a Democrat, nor would I recommend you either ever under any circumstances.

But the guy is saying things on the Democrat side that Democrats need to hear. And as I said, I'm a tactician first with politics. If I can use one of these guys, I'm going to use him. Here's RFK Jr. on exactly this, this love affair with censorship, which is what's happening to Trump right now through the legal process, and how the Democrats, once the party who claimed to be about tolerance, is now the party of full-blown totalitarian Soviet censorship. Check this out.

There's never been a time in history when the good guys were the people who were censoring books and censoring information. And throughout COVID, the media took on this responsibility of basically lying to the public about public health issues in order to get them to follow a certain policy, which the media believed in, apparently, which were lockdowns, masks, the forced vaccination, etc. And now it's clear that those policies were not beneficial to public health. Those policies were not beneficial to public health. But, you know, I think the media got into this posture of censorship, and it's hard for them to relinquish it.

Folks, there's going to be a huge lane in the Democrat Party for a Democrat willing to speak out about two things, the vaccine, RFK, and censorship. I'm not suggesting they're going to be able to take out Biden in the primary, but the fact that RFK Jr., despite having just got in the race, what, literally two weeks ago, with almost no money and no liberal backing at all, is that a single serious person on the liberal side, the liberal side, who's going to endorse this guy? He's at 20% polling. How do you explain that? Mike Pence on the Republican side is only at 5%. He was the freaking vice president, man. This guy's at 20. You don't think he has the potential to cause Biden all kinds of problems? There's big potential there. This vaccine issue is going to be huge. Also, the censorship issue. There are a lot of Democrats who are getting sick of this too. Hey, a couple of things before we wrap up today.

A lot of people asked me yesterday, fairly enough. I'm surprised because they're probably not regular listeners to the show because they know my policy about this. When I sense that there's going to be a story rife with misinformation, I don't care how many headlines are out about it. I try to avoid the story until the liberal misinformation, disinformation machine calms down because my fear is reporting to you something that's inaccurate. The Allen, Texas tragedy, not far

from where producer Jim lives, obviously an abomination. However, immediately after the story, I saw threads from the liberal media who shockingly, despite the fact we still don't have the Nashville attackers manifesto, which is bizarre at this point, within minutes, what did we see, Joe? This guy was definitely a white supremacist, which was strange because they ID'd the name and it was a Spanish name. So I thought to myself, staying away folks, the Bongino rule. I am going to wait till this story starts to filter out. Now, before I start reporting on what happened, because why? You remember the Club Q shooting in Colorado? Yes.

Where they were certain that this guy was there and doing this because he was attacking people because of their gender identity or whatever it is? Here's a supercut put together by Tom Elliott in the Club Q shooting. They were absolutely sure, despite what appears now to have been a non-binary individual with mental health issues, they were absolutely sure that this, again, was some attack based exclusively on gender stuff. Whenever they have this conclusion down quickly, air quotes here, be very cautious of the story. The information you're hearing about this shooting in Allen, Texas, I'm not going to repeat it yet. I'm not going to repeat it here until we're sure it's true.

Because it seems like some of this stuff is really, the information coming out is really shady. If it's confirmed, it's confirmed. We'll report it. But I want you, this is what happened after the Club Q shooting. Remember this? These people should be able to live their lives without fear of being murdered, literally. But right now, that's the sort of climate that's been created by anti-LGBTQ protesters and, frankly, bigots. And you can't take part in this continued onslaught of words against the LGBTQ community and not look at this and have blood on your hands.

I think that DeSantis, Boebert, they have blood on their hands on this. They have to stop spreading lies. These are lies that they're spreading, and they're causing pain and death and murder against our community. If he's a consumer of the people we just rattled off from Lauren Boebert to Tucker Carlson, let's get it out. Let's get it out at trial. Let's expose it for what it is. Name it and shame it. He's a consumer of these people and those people should face civil consequences from the victims. You are seeing a Republican Party that is targeting, you know, a lot of drag queens and LGBTQ. And this is not an accident, right? There's a lot of drag queens and LGBTQ.

And this is not an accident, right? There's a lot of targeting. They targeted drag shows a lot. And in part because Drag Time Story Hour, where a drag queen would come. It was ubiquitous in libraries all over the country. Had a drag queen would come read a story. It was fun. The kids loved it. And then also some sort of friendly, friendly drag shows.

It would be on a sunday brunch you could bring the kids they'd see a show and the far-right conservatives left on this a lot of you recognize fugazi in there i see in the chat a lot of 8888 i saw a lot of you and you guys are good in the chat yeah these are p1s man you're a hardcore p so i hate a guy in there folks be very cautious about this story. I'm not suggesting to you that this story may not in the next few days materialize. And if this guy, I mean, listen, if you watch the video,

it's just impossible to watch. It's impossible to watch and not feel a sense of emptiness. But the fact that the media already has a story down without having the story down should always make you skeptical. Give it some time. Let the story filter out.

And let's get the facts before we jump to any conclusions on this. Because when the narrative is all too convenient, it's probably a lie. Be very careful of these people. Man, loaded show for you today. I hope I wasn't too salty this morning. I just woke up with that airline. All the things that really pissed me off in a day. The freaking airline story, that set me off.

Because it just, it so epitomizes liberals. Let's just make them pay for the hotels. Who? You're going to pay. Who the hell do you think is giving money to the airlines? Do you think the airlines have a money fairy? Gosh, I wish people could just see through this stuff for what it is. That's liberalism summed up.
