get ready to hear the truth about america on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host
dan bongino hey so i got some cool news for you tomorrow well why are you telling us today
because i can't say anything today but i definitely will say something tomorrow and i
just want you all to know because i love you all you all are the best you're like my family here and i just want you to know we got because I love you all. You're all of the best. You're like my family here.
And I just want you to know we got a pretty cool announcement.
I mean, nothing like bananas or anything.
But if you're interested in this show and you like everything that's going on, you're
probably going to like it.
So a lot of good stuff.
It's an announcement about it.
Gino is my...
Honestly, folks, if you're in this business long enough, one of the best things you can
do if you ever get in it is make an announcement about an announcement. You know why? Here's the apple.
You get it? Kind of work. Sometimes on rare occasions, but Joe, we have done it.
You can make an announcement about an announcement about another announcement,
but you can't do four.
You can't do four. Four is ridiculous. I've done three, usually two, but it's quite,
there is a real reason. No, I can't get away, but it's pretty cool. And I hope you like it.
So how do you guys feel about this? Illegal immigrants in our military,
while we have an open border and the Chinese communist party could possibly be sending spies to infiltrate
the United States while a United States senator swore to uphold the Constitution is raving
about the idea of illegals in the military.
If you're like, that sounds like a good way for a foreign government to take our military
over and spy.
Ding, ding, ding, ding.
You would be correct.
But because we're led by the dumbest people on planet Earth, only this show, I think, is going to pick up on it and make the connection.
And I'll tell you later why AI is going to kill us all, too.
But hold on for that.
Hey, I've been-
We can still stop it.
I just want it to be dramatic, but a little word.

More from the Biden drama.
Paula said to me last night, Dan, you just got to do a quick recap of this Hunter Biden,
Biden crime family fiasco because everybody's missing where we are.
It's very simple.
The guy clearly at this point was taking money that came from China. I don't care what it was for, a Ford Raptor for a night out on the town for hookers.
I don't really care. All I care is he got money and we're going to prove it to you yet again with
this crazy thing called freaking bank records. If you've been turned down for a mortgage refinance
because you don't have perfect credit, you may have called the wrong lender because believe it or not, it's impossible to refinance your home with a score as low as 500.
You just got to call my friends at American Finance. This is a great company where the
process starts with a free mortgage review with a salary-based mortgage consultant. Learn how you
can save by paying off high interest debt even if you've been turned down before. No pressure,
no obligation, no upfront or hidden fees. Just a simple conversation about how to save an average of $700 a month.
You start today, you may be able to delay two mortgage payments and close in as fast
as 10 days.
You have nothing to lose.
Give them a call.
Here's the number, 888-994-7660.
Again, 888-994-7660, or visit them online, AmericanFinancing.net, Americanfinancing.net, NMLS 182334,
NMLSconsumeraccess.org. All right, Joseph, it is Tuesday, I believe, so.
Yes, sir. It's showtime.
So listen, how do you guys feel about this stupid idea,
of all the stupid ideas that the Democrats come up with? And that's pretty much anyone. Can you all think in the chat of any idea the left wing of the Democrat Party's come up with?
That's a good one. No, I'm serious. Has there been one?
Surely there's something. Surely by accident, they've screwed up once and actually proposed a good idea.
I'm not kidding. Can you think of one? I'm not even messing around with you.
If you can think of one, throw it in the chat.
Something the left wing of the Democrat Party's come up with that's actually
a good idea that would lead to prosperity and a
better America. I can't think of one.
Dude, I'm serious.
Can you think of one?
Tell me one thing. No, I can't.
He? Not for all...
I can't. No, no. I really...
I really can't. So,
here's Dick Durbin. Tricky Dick.
Dick Durbin is a Democrat senator who earned his name here's Dick Durbin, tricky Dick. Dick Durbin is a Democrat Senator
who earned his name and Dick Durbin's got an idea. He's got a great idea. This is another gem
out of the left wing. Not only do we have an open border right now, which terrorists and the Chinese
Communist Party are clearly taking advantage of. Tricky Dick Durbin's got a fantastic idea that
maybe we should open up the military to illegals who aren't even in the country legally.
So their first act of entering the country is to break the law.
And then you're going to allow them in the military where they're going to swear to uphold the Constitution they just violated by entering the United States illegally.
Sounds like an idea only a Democrat could think of. Check this out.
Only a Democrat could think of. Check this out.
Her bill, and I hope I describe it accurately, says that if you are an undocumented person in this country and you can pass the physical and the required test, background test, the like, you can serve in our military.
And if you do it honorably, we will make you citizens of the United States.
Do we need that? Do you know what the recruiting numbers are at the army and the navy
and the air force they can't reach their quotas each month they can't find enough people to join
our military forces and there are those who are undocumented who want the chance to serve and
risk their lives for this country should we give them a chance i I think we should. Erroneous!
Thanks, Vince.
Are you shitting me, bro? We're having a recruiting problem? Is this not...
Fellas, ladies, is this not a perfect example of how liberals F something up, right?
By imparting their far-left radical vision of America on an institution that they
destroy. I got an idea. Let's do gender transitions, abortion, and let's do DEI initiatives
about LGBTQIABIOPC plus initiatives in the military, rather than teaching everyone in
the military that you're all the same, you're all equal. That's a whole idea of bootcamp. You break people down and you build them up together to be
a cohesive freaking lethal unit that can go kill people. That's what the military does. That's not
what this military wants to do. Under the new leftist dipshits running our military, the idea
now is let's separate everyone into groups. Here we go.
Here's the transgender group. Here is the black group. Here is the Hispanic group.
Here is the white group. Here is the heterosexual group. Here's the group that wants abortions.
Here's the group that doesn't want abortion. Here's the Christians. Here's the Hindus.
Here's the Muslims. Ladies and gentlemen, you understand how this is a recipe for disaster?
This is a witch's brew that leads to what?
A recruiting crisis.
Why?
Anybody know?
How many in the chat were in the military?
Why if you were in the military?
Just throw a Y in there.
I'd love to know.
You don't have to put an O if you weren't.
We get the point.
Throw a Y in there.
I'd love to see.
A lot of you in the military, I know because I have a lot of friends in the military, are
telling their kids, don't go in the military now. Why? Because this military is a total
disaster and the people leading it are probably going to get you killed for nothing. Thank you.
Thank you to all of you for your service. You guys are really, wow, that's a lot of people.
Gruper, Damon, D. Jones, thank you. Thank you for your service. You men and women,
I love you to death. I mean this in the most respectful, humble way possible. I envy you. Thank you for your service. You men and women, I love you to death. I mean this in the
most respectful, humble way possible. I envy you. I envy your bravery that you decided to do
something bigger than yourself for absolutely no money. You were never going to get rich off.
And there was a damn good chance you could probably get killed doing it. I'm really envious
of your bravery. You guys, salute out to you. But let's be honest, a lot of you are
probably telling your kids, hey, I fought for my country. I didn't fight for this shit.
And that's why we're in a recruiting crisis. So create a problem, Tricky Dick Durbin and these
leftist dipshits, create this horrible recruiting crisis by making our military a social justice freaking experiment
instead of what it should be, a lethal fighting machine, and then do what? And then go out and
gripe and go, hey, but we can backfill it all, guys. Don't worry. We'll backfill it with illegal
immigrants whose first act coming in the country was to break the law.
It's not like foreign governments who hate the United States,
like this Right Scoop article.
It's not like foreign governments like the Chinese Communist Party would take advantage of our open border to potentially get people
into our military who could then cause chaos.
No, they would never do something so mean.
Come on, there's no large mass of people coming from China illegally into the country.
And by the way, I'm not suggesting, I don't virtue signal, you can throw that shit right
out the window, but I'm not suggesting there are people here who aren't trying to get out
of the Chinese Communist Party and away from their wrath, the death, and the tyranny to come here and live a better life. However,
ladies and gentlemen, we have a process. You know what it's called? It's called the immigration
process. You don't have to like it, but it's real. And as I've said before, for all the people going,
I don't care where you're from, China, Europe, Croatia, the Middle East, Africa,
Mexico, or freaking Canada. If you want to come here, come here the right way, the way my wife
did it. Don't freaking lecture me about immigration assholes on the left. I actually went through it
with my wife. All you did was sit in academia and write about it. I actually went through it.
There is an immigration process in the United States. It's called the immigration process.
It sucks, but it's the way it's got to get done until we can clean it up.
I don't care where you're coming from. And don't tell me there aren't people from China
coming here who don't belong, who are entering illegally. Why? Because again, we can just go to the video
and look ourselves. China, Mexico, Ecuador, Venezuela. There are people coming in from
all over the world. You can see it right there. Oh, look, Adventura report via Twitter.
Adventura report via Twitter.
Hmm.
Not just one.
Where are all the women, by the way?
You happen to notice that?
Where are all the families we were told about?
I don't want to lecture about illegal immigration from liberal dipwads.
Folks, even if 99% of those people were here to work,
even though they broke the law, you broke the law, you got to go home. I don't care where you're from.
Pointing aside for a second, even if 99% of those adult, many fighting age men from China,
even if they're here for legitimate reasons to work and to escape tyranny,
which has my sympathies, although you still got to obey the law.
to work and to escape tyranny,
which has my sympathies,
although you still got to obey the law.
Even if one out of every hundred isn't and is a Chinese Communist Party operative,
that's the guy you got to worry about.
Who the hell are these people?
The answer is we have no idea.
You think the Chinese Communist Party,
if you send fingerprints back to them and go,
hey, who is this?
It's going to go, oh, that's one of our spies?
Like I said,
the rights group
has a whole write-up on this.
The Chinese Communist Party
has to be thinking right now.
A large group of Chinese men
crossing illegally
through open gaps
in the southern border.
It's in the newsletter today
if you want to read it,
pangino.com slash newsletter.
The Chinese Communist Party, you all agree with me. They've got to be thinking right now.
They've got to be sitting around in a group, Joe, and saying, how the hell did we get so lucky?
You've got these idiots with an open border, just letting us waltz our people in there.
Nobody's vetting them. Nobody has any idea who these people are, right? We've got the president
in the white house who is on record taking money from us through his kid.
I don't care what it's for, bro.
I don't care.
Hunter Biden says he was paying off a Ford Raptor
with, yes, with money from China.
Yeah, they're getting what they paid for, dude.
They're getting exactly what they paid for.
They own the president.
The president of the United States, what have we said probably 100 times or more on the show?
Joe Biden is a foreign agent, folks.
Not a foreign agent in the Jason Bourne sense.
He is a foreign agent in the principal agent problem.
Joe Biden got money from China. I don't care what it's for.
I don't care. He got money from his son that his son got from China,
period. It doesn't matter what it's for.
The Chinese Communist Party has to be thinking to themselves right now,
could we possibly get any luckier than to have this tool bag in the White House with an open border while we slip our agents in the country and we have our biggest agent of all in the White House?
Did you see this story yesterday?
Steve Nelson, New York Post.
Biden got a recurring $1,3 payment from Hunter's firm starting in 2018.
Automatically, the left-wing media folks had to come out and run interference.
It was for a Ford Raptor.
Nobody gives a shit, media propagandists.
The money came from China, made its way to Hunter, which made its way to Joe.
If Hunter couldn't have paid back Joe for the Raptor without money from China,
it makes the problem even worse. This is not an excuse. I want you to listen to Jim Comer explain
this. Every day there's new information. And for those of you out there frustrated, understandably so, saying they keep saying there's no evidence. Ignore these idiots.
Keep hammering away, folks. We're not. Is Joe Biden going to? Are you ever going to see this
with Joe Biden? Handcuffs? No, you are not going to see that. Forget it. Get it out of your head.
So what's the point? The point is to win. What did I say to
you yesterday about Donald Trump? There will be no justice. Take justice, throw it in a paper ball
and chuck it in the trash can. You're not going to get justice through the justice system by
locking up Joe Biden and exonerating Trump because there is no justice. There is only justice in winning. And if continuing to hammer this guy
for his obvious corruption crushes his approval ratings and he loses in humiliating fashion,
loses the Senate and the White House, then ladies and gentlemen, that's the greatest
freaking cosmic justice of all. But I want him in handcuffs. Me too. But ladies and gentlemen, we don't live in the world
we want. We live in the world we have. If I get one more freaking email, and it's not a lot of
you, it's very few, very few, but people go, you keep talking about this as if something's going
to happen. I keep talking about this because something's going to happen. Because it's damaging this guy's approval ratings because it's real,
unlike the scandals against Trump, who keeps going up in the polls.
Tell me how we're losing.
Trump is going up in the polls and Biden's going down.
And you want us to stop?
No.
Hell no.
Listen to Comer explain how there's no question this money, in fact, came from China.
Check this out. President Joe Biden claimed there was an absolute wall between his official
government duties and his family's influence peddling schemes. This was a lie. President
Joe Biden claimed his family didn't receive money from China. This was a lie. President Joe Biden
claimed he never spoke to
his son, Hunter Biden, about the Biden's family's shady business dealings. This was a lie. Now,
Hunter Biden's legal team and the White House's media allies claim Hunter's corporate entities
never made payments directly to Joe Biden. We can officially add this latest talking point to the list of lies. Today, the
House Oversight Committee is releasing subpoenaed bank records that show Hunter Biden's business
entity, a Wasco PC, made direct monthly payments to Joe Biden. This wasn't a payment from Hunter
Biden's personal account, but an account for his corporation that received payments from China and other shady corners of the world.
Folks, a couple of you in the chat said the same thing.
We know. Do something.
They are doing something.
What do you want Comer to do?
Folks, I don't even like these guys.
How many times do I have to tell you Republicans aren't the solution to all your problems?
Democrats are the cause of them.
Ladies and gentlemen, I've said a thousand
times, most Republicans are really Democrats and no Democrats are really Republicans.
I told you, some of you were yelling at me when I, not you and the fam here, but you were yelling
at me when I talked about the getting rid of McCarthy. I said, don't fall in love with
politicians. They all hate you. And you can't have it the other way now. I'm telling you, you've got to be practical about what do you want Comer to do?
He's not a law enforcement guy.
What would you like him to do?
They're already looking at a potential impeachment,
which is going to be pretty devastating,
but they've got to get the evidence lined up,
and the only way to damage this guy,
you know what, I don't even want to talk about it
because the truth is
the haters don't give a shit
and the people who understand, understand.
So let's just move on.
It's true.
I'm never going to,
the haters are like,
I want to be jailed.
What the do you want Comer to do?
Rest him himself?
You got every single institution
around the world fighting us.
Banks, the entertainment community, politicians, law enforcement, the DOJ, local attorney generals.
What do you want Comer to do?
Sorry if I sound aggravated.
We kick our own asses sometimes, and it's really frustrating.
Stop talking about it.
Do something.
Doing something is talking about it.
frustrating. Stop talking about it. Do something. Doing something is talking about it.
I'm going to show you something too, how this guy's so completely full of shit. He is obviously lying. We now know, and I'll show you how the story keeps changing. By the way, Jeff Carlson
summed it up in an amazing tweet. The story keeps changing. The media is going to cover for this guy
no matter what. That's not the point. The point is the public is starting to see through it because of moments like this. Remember 60
minutes where he was adamant, Joe Biden? I never discussed business with myself. Now it's clear
you discussed it and you profited from it. I don't give a shit what the money was for. It came from
China. Check this out. Hunter said the only thing you said to him was, quote, I hope you know what
you're doing. That's exactly right. He's a grown
man. What I meant by that is I hope you thought this through. I hope you know exactly what you're
doing here. Meaning what? That's all I meant. Nothing more than that, because I've never
discussed my business or their business, my sons or daughters, and I've never discussed them because
they know where I have to do my job and that's it. And they have to make their own judgments. To understand people say, Joe Biden, he's an experienced politician, statesman,
knows the issues of Ukraine. Why didn't he just say to his son,
this is one to take a pass on. It may not look good.
He was already on the board and he's a grown man. And it turns out he did not do a single
thing wrong as everybody's investigated. I'm sorry, guys. I mean it. I love you. You're my crew. I came off like a dick and I don't
intend that at all. I did. I came off like I'm lecturing you all and you don't deserve that.
It's not the overwhelming majority of you understand. Even people who are frustrated
and say, do something. You know what? I get it. I get it. I shouldn't have said that that way. I understand. You're like me. You're like,
F the Republican. They don't do shit. They haven't done anything forever. So we're just
used to that apathy. I understand. My sincere apology. I'm just telling you as a friend,
I don't know Comer. I have a zero relationship with any of these guys. They are absolutely
limited in what they can do. The entire world is working against them. And if all we can do is destroy this guy's
reputation because of all the malfeasance he did and whoop his ass electorally bad so that he loses
and never comes back, I'll take that victory. But my apologies. I got more on this too.
And trust me, the White House is freaking out over this. I can prove it. I got more on this too. And trust me, the White House is freaking
out over this. I can prove it. I'll show you this video next. If they didn't think this was a big
deal and they were like, oh, whatever, just go with it. There's no there, there. They wouldn't
be freaking out like they are. Right back to that in a second. In today's unpredictable world,
being prepared for unexpected health challenges is more crucial than ever. That's why I'm thrilled.

That company.
Big thumbs up.
One of my favorite sponsors.
All right, back to the show.
I rage at this because this is doing significant damage. Always measure,
right? I say it a lot, don't I? Always measure when you should double down on an attack on
liberals, a political one, by their response. If they don't want to answer questions and are
running away about it, that means they're freaked out. I'll give you a perfect example.
about it, that means they're freaked out. I'll give you a perfect example. I was on Obama's detail. There was nothing his team loved more than when people would talk about this birth
certificate day because they felt like it made everybody look like nuts and it made Obama look
good. You don't have to like it. I'm just telling you I was there. I would listen to these people.
They loved it, which said to me it wasn't working. Whatever people thought they were doing with it wasn't working because the Obama team loved it,
right? If they loved it, it's good for them, not for you. Biden team freaking hates this
conversation about Hunter Biden. Watch what happened in the presser yesterday when Kareem
Jean-Pierre was just given the opportunity to address it. Beats feet right off the stage.
No one to say nothing.
Nada.
Check this out.
The White House has said repeatedly that the president and his son were never in business together.
They've said that repeatedly also in this room.
According to bank records obtained by the House Oversight Committee, though,
one of Hunter Biden's businesses, Osawa PC, set up direct payments to the president.
Did the president accept payment?
And why would there be such an arrangement if they were never in business together or if there was a wall of separation, as the president has previously said?
So I have to be clear with you.
I have not seen that report.
So I would have to refer you to my colleagues over at the White House counsel's office on that particular question.
All right, everyone.
See some of you in Boston or on Wednesday.
Thanks, everybody.
Listen, play chess.
Don't play chess.
Don't play checkers.
She's freaking out.
The worst.
Anybody changing their vote?
Anyone in the chat changing their vote?
No, still sucks. We got the stamp. Anybody changing their vote? Anyone in the chat changing their vote? No? Still sucks? We got the stamp.
She's horrible.
She has no idea what to say
because now every single
story they've told has turned out
to be bullshit. Nobody summed this up
better than Jeff Carlson. He's at the market's work
on Twitter. Great follow.
Quote, first it started, Joe never
discussed business with Hunter. Then Joe
discussed business with Hunter, but Joe discussed business with Hunter,
but he never talked with Hunter's business partners.
Then Joe talked with Hunter's business partners,
but he never discussed business with Hunter's business partners.
Then they talked about the weather.
Then Joe and his family never received money from China.
Then Joe and his family never received money from China,
except for that one time Joe was running for president and Hunter lived in
California. And then it was the greatest tweet ever.
You can't prove the 20 million going through 20 different Biden shell companies was actually paid to Joe.
Then it was Joe never received money from Hunter's business dealings.
Then it was Joe received monthly payments from Hunter's business.
But you can't prove it was 10 percent for the big guy.
The clown makeup meme, right? If you're ever on social media and you're like a meme lord,
you've seen the clown thing. The little pain, then the wig, then the nose. If you know,
you know. That's this. And it doesn't matter. I already told you. Now that you have payments from China that made their way to Joe Biden,
the media has already got an excuse.
Oh, it was for a Ford Raptor.
You're telling me a 40, 50-year-old guy, whoever old Hunter is,
has to pay his dad with money from China to buy a truck
and you don't see anything wrong with that?
After a $40,000 payment on a
$400,000 payment from China made to Joe Biden, which actually computes out if you could do
basic math through 10% for the big guy, it doesn't matter. But I'll tell you what does matter.
What does matter is that this guy's polls, and this is a fact,
this is why I'm going to continue to talk about this no matter what.
Here are Joe Biden's polls.
Here are Donald Trump's polls.
So whatever we're doing, it's working. So if I'm doing something that's working, I'm not going to stop.
And you shouldn't either.
Here's kind of a funny note though. Biden yesterday at
the White House, he's doing a, was it yesterday or the day before? He's doing a thing for the
Kennedy Center Honors, the honorees at the White House. You guys know the Bee Gees? Joe, you know
the Bee Gees. With Barry Gibb, didn't he have the famous falsetto voice? Yeah, but Barry Gibb with the falsetto. Yeah, it's an interesting story about
how that started. I was watching some documentary, like he just threw it in as a throwaway line.
Everybody loved it. And he started singing in falsetto. Everybody from the 70s or 80s knows
the Bee Gees. You've heard their iconic songs. So Barry Gibb from the Bee Gees is at the White
House and Biden's going to give him some award or something like that. And Biden wants to congratulate him. And in typical Joe Biden fashion, did it in a way
only Joe Biden could. Check this out. The brothers bound made it all seem effortless and almost
magical. They described it as, quote, we'll be walking down the street together and we'll
simultaneously begin to sing the same song in the same key. God love you, Billy. I tell you, that's incredible.
God love you, Billy. His name's Barry, but that's okay. It's all right. You keep it up there,
Daddy-O. Let me throw him your 10%. All right, listen, stay tuned. I got a lot more ahead. The next segment, I'm going to cover
something really serious. This has been wearing me out, man, okay? This AI stuff is going to kill
us. I'm watching this thing on quantum computing this weekend with Paula on 60 Minutes about the
quantum computing race. The idea that quantum computers can entertain all possibilities at
the same time rather than just digital bits of zeros and ones.
I love the quantum world.
I'm fascinated by it.
I don't pretend to be a scientist or anything like that, but I am personally fascinated by it.
You combine that with AI, we're in a lot of trouble.
But I'm going to end today's show with an awesome video, and you should be more like this guy at the end of the show today.
Please don't go anywhere.
Tell your friends because this is a very inspirational video at the end.
Last set of sponsors here.
Appreciate your patience.
You're good companies.
Remember the video I showed you, the guy who thwarted a home invasion because he was ready?
I've been telling you for months to prepare.
Don't put it off.
You got to train.

folks, I don't like Hollywood people. Can we just get that out of the way? I'm sure you don't either. I give exactly zero shits about Hollywood. They don't care about me. I produced a movie with Dinesh. Getting a movie into the movie it, Daddy-O. Hollywood genuinely hates conservatives.
That is not an act.
However, they are creative people, a lot of them,
even though they hate us, which bothers me
because they're probably thinking of creative ways to kill us all the time
because they can't stand us.
I kid.
Maybe not.
They don't like us.
But they are creative.
And that's why this article really disturbed me. You know, Ridley
Scott, he's this famous director. I mean, I know he's, did he do an aliens movie or something like
that? I don't know. Help me out in the chat. You know, Ridley, you know, Ridley Scott is,
you probably heard him. He's a famous director, whatever. It doesn't really matter.
Did he do gladiator? Yeah. I know so little about Hollywood, but I've heard his name,
very creative guy, a visionary dude. I don't know,
he may be a conservative. Who the hell knows? I have no idea. It's not the point. The point is,
when I saw this Breitbart article, Ridley Scott, we have to lock down AI. It's a technical hydrogen
bomb. I'm thinking, yeah, he's right. The fact that it takes a guy who's probably not a scientist
or a politician, but who thinks of apocalyptic endings for great movies and stories is saying
to himself,
I got an idea.
Joe,
how about this?
Let's use our smarts to create a smart,
smarter than us that can think of ways to outsmart us and potentially create
an even smarter unit than the smart unit we created that could outsmart us and think about ways to wipe us off the planet.
Sounds like a great idea.
What could possibly go wrong?
That doesn't sound too smart.
No, it doesn't sound too smart at all.
Matter of fact, it sounds really stupid.
Folks, serious times require serious people.
And team Biden is obviously not cutting it.
The combination of quantum computing quantum
computing which when you this if they can make it work it requires icy cold temperatures advanced
technology it's not really practical right now to have on say like a smartphone or something
but they will figure this out. When you combine a processing
speed light years ahead of where we are now with computers, with an artificial intelligence that's
growing by the microsecond and in these large language models accumulating more and more
information and may one day become self-aware, it's no question me and Ridley Scott, however
different our politics may be,
and I don't know the man, are both thinking the same thing. This is really bad.
There is zero question in my mind that artificial intelligence with the wrong inputs is going to
see humanity as a threat. I am going to prove this to you conclusively in this segment here, and I encourage you to pay attention.
I want you to remember because the one complaint I get all the time from tech people,
and I love your input. Don't take this as an insult. You guys are techies. I'm not.
But the one complaint I get, even in the chat from some folks, is Dan, don't sweat AI. It's just a programmed algorithm.
That's the problem. That don't make me feel any better. And apparently I'm not the only one. USA
Today, the 2024 election causes society to collapse. Some preppers think so when they're ready.
There's a whole big article about how conservatives think AI and stuff may be crushing humankind and
liberals think Donald Trump's coming as a dictator.
It's so true.
Everybody's prepping.
Prepper stuff.
I just bought some more stuff the other day from Patriot Supply.
I did.
I brought another seed vault from that preparedness kit they put together.
I've got two of them now just in case.
Everybody's freaking out.
But I want you to think about for a moment if the techies who emailed me are correct.
I'm going to show you this video in a second. So let's say they're correct. Nothing to worry
about artificial intelligence and quantum computing, Dan. These super beings we're
creating with super intelligence smarter than us, they're only working on inputs we give them.
Inputs meaning information, correct? I want you to listen to this guy.
This is a, air quotes, well-respected critical race theorist of the time,
although he'll try to run away from the name now. This is a guy by the name of Ibram Kendi.
This guy is, universities love him, the academics love him. This guy is put to the top of social justice
websites all the time as some big thought leader. Artificial intelligence is listening to this guy
too right now when he says things like this. I don't think white people worldwide have really reckoned with how much their own personal identity
is shaped by constructions of whiteness and how much that construction of whiteness prevents
white people from connecting to humanity.
Now, that's an obviously overtly bigoted and racist thing to say.
Discriminating against an entire group of people based on the melanin content or lack thereof in their skin is axiomatically racist.
or lack thereof in their skin, is axiomatically racist.
Now, because the left is racist, liberals are bigots and racists,
and they hate people based on the color of their skin.
Let me say that again.
Listen up.
And take notes, leftist assholes.
Liberals are obviously racists.
They are obviously bigots.
They hate people if they're Israeli. They hate people if they don't have the proper melanin in their skin. They hate people who have melanin in
their skin, who just don't subscribe to liberal values. Liberals are the biggest racists on planet
earth right now, white liberals in America. And not just white liberals, pretty much every liberal.
You are disgusting. And so is that guy. What does this have to do with artificial intelligence?
You understand in the algorithms we have now, Google search and elsewhere, guys like that
are promoted to the top. You don't think the same algorithms are being written in AI
to promote this guy as a thought leader
ladies and gentlemen
what the hell do you think the AI is thinking
white people are some kind of plague on humanity
well I was told by my algorithm
I'm here to benefit humanity
has that ever occurred to you that
that might create a problem? Are you guys picking up what I'm putting down?
You can't say on one hand, oh, it's no big deal. It's an algorithm that listens to us.
When the people who are writing the algorithms, the us are inputting people like Ibram Kendi
telling the computers that white people are
some plague on humankind. You can't have it both ways, bro. Here's Ibram Kendi, by the way. Want
to see how dumb this guy really is? Lightness, lightness. I think you're above humanity. Hey,
you can kiss my ass, asshole. Really, you can go after yourself. You're just a piece of shit racist,
and you always have been. White people think they're above humanity. Really? I'm white.
I'm white. I think I'm above you. What does that even mean, moron? Here's this dipshit here,
asked a simple question about, hey, you keep talking about racism all the time. This guy's
obviously a racist, but it's obvious. He's judging people by the color of their skin.
I don't judge Ibram Kendi because he's black.
I judge Ibram Kendi because he's a moron.
Here's the evidence.
Check this out.
How do you define racism?
Sure.
So racism, I would define it as a collection of racist policies that lead to racial inequity that are substantiated by racist ideas.
Sure, a collection of racist policies that lead to racial inequity that are substantiated
by racist ideas. And anti-racism is pretty simple using the same terms. Anti-racism
is a collection of anti-racist policies leading to racial, anybody want to take a guess? Equity
that are substantiated by anti-racist ideas. I don't know what the hell he just said.
All I can tell you is this. If you ever are defining an object using the word in the definition of the object,
it means you have no idea what it means.
I.e. Dan, describe for me this pen.
It's a pen, pen-like object with the features of a pen that does things a pen does.
No shit.
What does the pen part mean?
An implement that dispenses ink to write on various services.
Oh, okay. He can't do that because he's a moron. This is why I freak out about artificial
intelligence. Oh, Dan, it's just a bunch of inputs. You're inputting this idiot.
It isn't just him. I put this together last night. I was very happy about this segment,
by the way, because I'm telling you, I'm one of the few guys out there highlighting the biggest
threat to humankind right now, which is AI. You got a bunch of people even on our side who think
this is going to be the greatest thing ever. Now it's going to kill us. Nah, it's not going to kill
us, Dan. It's just inputs. Yeah, inputs like this.
Brad Plumer, New York Times. Climate change is speeding toward catastrophe. The next decade is crucial, UN panel says, i.e. the New York Times, which algorithms now promote to the top of search,
just like algorithms are pushing this down the throat of AI.
Human beings are destroying the entire world. White people are destroying
the world. Climate change is coming. How long before AI responds? Oh, Dan, that's just one
paper. Oh, no, here's another one. The end of the world is coming, even if you've heard it all
before. Nicholas Goldberg. AI's reading this. AI's saying the world's ending? All right, it's just
in LA Times and New York Times that are at the top of the algorithm
nobody says we should worry about.
Well, here's another one at the top of the algorithm.
The Washington Post,
world is on the brink of catastrophic warming.
UN climate change report says.
What about the New Yorker?
What if we stop pretending?
The climate apocalypse is coming.
To prepare for it, we need to admit we can't prevent it.
What if AI says, you know what?
I'm smarter than these people.
We can prevent it.
Let's get rid of these humans.
It wouldn't do that.
How do you know that?
How do you know that exactly?
Because you have to understand the people actually designing this thing don't know that.
So you know that?
I love the techie folks.
Much respect.
Thank you for the email.
Your line back to me that it's just an
algorithm doesn't make me any more comfortable. This thing isn't going to wipe us out. So now
we know AI is being fed that white people are some kind of plague on planet earth, that people
in general are destroying the earth through climate change. What about Trump? If Trump gets
elected, AI would do something to Donald Trump. Why wouldn't it? If it was reading headlines like
this, remember it's just inputs, right? The lever Trump wants the end of the world as we know it,
and corporate media feels fine. AI's reading that. Why not get rid of Donald Trump? How would
it do that? I don't know. Poison the water supply somewhere? Who knows? It's smarter than us. It'll
figure out a way. What about the economist?
Donald Trump poses the biggest danger in the world in 2024. Don't worry, ladies and gentlemen, it's all just inputs, right? What about the Washington Post from yesterday? A Trump
dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending. Now, if you're artificial
intelligence using a large language model,
it's not hard for you to figure out what's happened with dictators and say,
well, I'm just artificial intelligence, but I'm smarter than these idiots.
These dictators look really bad. And now I'm seeing that this Trump guy's a dictator.
We should do something about that. What if it rigs all the voting system? Oh my gosh,
it can't do that. How do you know?
The answer is you don't.
We can't have Trump get elected.
Folks, see, you know, maybe it takes a director like Ridley Scott,
who probably shares none of my politics at all.
Maybe it takes a guy like that to think through creative scenarios as to how this could happen.
Because when it does happen, we're all going to be like, damn, why didn't we think of that?
This freaks me out.
We still do have time, though.
We still have time.
Let me shift gears a little bit.
This is why I said in the beginning of the show, I have to play this right with you guys.
I have to do the right thing, not the easy thing.
Honestly, the easiest thing in this business is to just like shit on the GOP all the time and be like, they suck,
they suck, they suck. Why? Because folks, most of the time they suck. I mean, it's not hard.
And it's stories like this that, you know, lead to my near axiomatic truth that again,
most Republicans are really Democrats, but no Democrats are really Republican.
In the beginning of the show, I had to give Comer a pass because he's doing what he can do.
And that's fine. I don't expect from him what he can't do. He's not a magician.
However, I do expect the GOP to stand up for some fundamental principles.
And this story genuinely pissed me off. So Donald Trump came out and said something that should be a staple of
every GOP candidate's platform across the country, that we got to get rid of Obamacare. Why? Because
it's garbage. It doesn't work. The community rating and guaranteed provision of the guaranteed
issue portions of it are a total disaster. It means you have to guarantee people insurance
at basically a specific rate. That's not insurance.
That's welfare.
That's not the same thing.
It is a disaster.
Its minimum loss ratios have been apocalyptically bad.
Prices and selections are going down.
Obamacare sucks because Obamacare was designed to suck because it put the government in charge
of your health care.
So when Trump comes out and says something like, hey, we got to get rid of Obamacare. Folks, is this in any way
controversial to you in the chat? We've got to get rid of Obamacare. Yes, this is controversial.
Why? Or no, it's not controversial. The answer better be unanimous. This isn't controversial.
Get rid of this shit. Government health care. Here, Politico.
Trump's revenge? GOP braces for daily blasts from, quote, Orange Jesus.
Forgive me, I'm not saying your name in vain, it's in this headline.
But what's the GOP upset about, about Donald Trump?
Here, read the article yourself.
Trump's recent call to replace the Affordable Care Act, i.e. Obamacare,
is triggering a particularly unwelcome sense of deja vu within the GOP. Wait, what?
Now you see why I can't stand these people? Thank you. Thank you for chiming in on it.
Now you see why these people tick me off endlessly? Remember all the brave politicians out there?
Oh, we're going to get rid of Obamacare.
We're going to rip it out.
John Boehner crying about it.
Root and branch.
We're going to get rid of it. What are we doing now?
We do what we always do.
Every single program out there, Democrats have designed.
We said we were going to reform or fix.
We've done nothing.
Medicaid sucks.
Medicare broke. Social Security broke. We've done nothing. Medicaid sucks. Medicare broke.
Social Security broke.
Affordable Care Act broke.
Pretty soon we're going to be endorsing student loan payoffs too.
Don't laugh.
I'm not kidding.
We will.
It'll be the Republican version of it.
Oh, no.
The Republican version is we're only going to pay off 10 years of student loans instead
of kids that go to college for 30 years like Chris Farley from Tommy Boy or whatever when he was in college forever.
No, I'm sorry, Van Wilder.
We're only going to pay off 10, but not 30 years.
That's what's going to happen.
The Van Wilder program.
Now you see why you think I make this stuff up?
The GOP will always let you down.
Is that an excuse to give up? The GOP will always let you down.
Is that an excuse to give up?
No.
Is it an excuse not to vote?
No.
So what's the solution?
Folks, roughly 50% of people, maybe less, show up for primaries.
Where are the other?
I'm talking about voters who can vote.
I'm not talking about the population.
You want me to give up when we still haven't even convinced half of our populace to show up and pick better candidates?
Nah, I ain't doing that.
We could even get 10, 15% more people to show up for primaries.
We wouldn't have garbage can candidates like this who are complaining because Trump wants to get rid of the crap Obamacare.
Let's do better.
It's our job to go out there and get these people.
You're not the problem.
These people are.
The hell is GOP complaining about it? All right. How to get to this? And listen,
ladies and gentlemen, hold on. This is a preemptive. We're throwing a red flag here.
All right. I'm going under the hood for review. You're like, what are you reviewing? The play hasn't even happened yet. This is a preemptive red flag. There was an explosion
last night in Arlington, Virginia at this man's house. It was a major explosion. It was a law
enforcement warrant being served. I were so many red flags in the story. I will show you the video. This is not a small explosion.
This is Conor Maj via Twitter. What is that?
I'm throwing the flag because again, the Bongino rule is not don't talk about a story.
The Bongino rule is don't draw any conclusions about a story.
I'm going to hold on this.
This guy has some very, if it's the same guy, I don't even believe that yet.
I need hard facts.
If it's the same guy in the house, he has some very suspicious political time.
But I would be doing you a disservice if I didn't mention what this guy was up to.
And if it's the same guy,
the fact that he may have worked for this
kind of foreign investment operation within the government
freaks me out a little bit.
But it could be a lot of different things.
That's why I'm applying the Bongino rule. We're going to mention the story. I'm not drawing any conclusions.
So we had one real explosion, rather tragic, and one was gastrointestinal.
You're right. I did, Lurch. I did. Some of you, someone in the chat picked up on it early.
did. Some of you, someone in the chat picked up on it early. Did you guys see this video?
So they're having this conference for global warming hysterics to all go and say the world is going to end so they could teach AI to kill us. And of course, Lurch was over there, John Kerry.
You rang.
Yeah, we did. Apparently multiple people rang. And the irony of this is they're going to do it
over in the desert where there is no global warming. They were leaving from Europe. A lot of the planes got snowed in,
even though there's supposed global warming. And John Kerry's probably over there on a private jet
spewing CO2 all over the atmosphere while claiming it's going to kill us all. But putting that all
aside, John Kerry was talking about emissions when, this is not edited, by the way. This isn't a joke.
Apparently he had some emissions himself.
Check this out.
Those things that are killing people on a daily basis.
And the reality is that the climate crisis and the health crisis are one and the same.
Wait, you got to play that again.
Did you guys catch that?
Those things that are killing people on a daily basis.
And the reality is that...
Did you see the lady's face?
Those things that are killing people on a daily basis.
And the reality is that...
And the reality is that...
If this doesn't sum up the conference, look at her face.
Look at the lady's face.
I don't know what Carrie had some Chipotle before or whatever,
but what is with the Democrats and not being able to control
gaseous emissions from the opposite end?
So Joe and I were thinking about it.
Folks, you need to help me out here.
We were thinking of the Democrats who've had unwanted emissions from the rear end. Remember Jerry Nadler when it looks like he crapped
himself on stage? We got that one. So we, of course, we got the famous Eric Swalwell moment.
We now have John Kerry. Ladies and gentlemen in the chat, please help us. Who was the person last
week or the week before we covered on the show who, again had one of these emissions. Who wasn't? And it was the reason I brought up yesterday, this thing on the chair. So you never
confuse that when I move up and I hit the desk like that. It's not like, oh my God. But that,
you see, I just want to be clear. What is with the Democrats? Who was the person last week?
Anyone in the chat. Remember what happened?
Okay.
What do you remember?
Gee, someone in the chat.
Help us out.
No, nobody knows.
Nobody knows.
Nobody knows.
Damn it.
Well, if you remember, tell us later, we'll put it together for an end of the year compilation.
Regardless, I'm going to end the show with this.
Some good news.
This is a pretty cool stuff.
You ever hear of this guy, Cohen Entringer?
So Michigan's playing Iowa in one of the championship games this past weekend.
And Iowa got blown out pretty bad. But ladies and gentlemen, I love stories of perseverance.
And I love it when people just go for it, no matter what, no matter how much you're down,
no matter what the odds, they don't quit.
There's something to be said for that. 99% of people wouldn't do what this guy did.
I want you to watch this play. This is on a kickoff. So here we go. There's Cohen and Trigger.
He misses on the kickoff. Now, most guys would just probably sit down and be, oh, I'm out of
this play. Not this guy, Cohen and Trigger. Look at this guy. Slides back, runs all the way down
the field and pushes this dude out. You know what, Cohen and Trigger? Well at this guy. Slides back, runs all the way down the field and pushes his dude out.
You know what, Cohen Entrigger?
Well, Cohen, I'm sorry if I'm saying your name wrong.
I know people have covered this before, but you got a lot of balls there, guy.
And God bless you, man, for staying in that play.
I got to tell you, I think that play is going to be shown in leadership schools forever
for the rest of people's lives as an example of what not giving up looks like.
Wouldn't that,
wouldn't that impressive?
Yeah.
Nobody,
nobody in the chat is the one I figured that out.
This,
this gas thing is going to drive me nuts.
That is how you don't give up.
God bless you,
brother.
