Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with
your host Dan Bongino.
Hey, thank you for the most amazing birthday gift yesterday.
Pod Track came out with their top industry podcasts by monthly listeners and the Dan
Bongino army, you guys and ladies out there produce the number five show.
Thank you very much.
You guys are the best. So you put a zero behind it. That's how old I was yesterday. So birthday's over.
Now the real stuff starts. Listen, I applied the Bongino rule yesterday on the United Health Care
CEO hit because there was so... Do you see what happened yesterday? You see why the Bongino rule
matters, which is give about 24 to 72 hours for a story to
kind of ferment a little bit before you draw a conclusion.
You talk about it all you want.
I'm not here to tell you what to talk about.
But professional hit Boba Fett did it or what?
I was like, what?
That didn't look like that to me.
I'll tell you what I mean.
I got that.
Also an update on Pete Hegseth.
We lose Pete, we lose everything.
I'm telling you right now.
We lose Pete Hegseth as defense secretary.
The swamps won.
It's already over.
Folks, we got to take a stand.
Joni Ernst, Lindsey Graham, and the rest of them, we gotta take a stand.

Hey, when do we decide to stop upholding free speech as a basic right?
What's playing out right now, big tech companies, stealing your data and selling it in social media sites
is a really dangerous precedent.
You should be able to express yourself freely
without the fear of being spied on, okay?

You ever wonder how these free to access tech giants
make their money?
By selling you, yes, you are the product.
Tracking your searches, everything you click on,
video history, they build a profile on you and they sell it.

privacy. All right, fellas. Let's go. I waited. I waited
because the damn Bon Gino audience deserves an informed
opinion, not bullshit. Guy gets assassinated in the middle of the street
in New York City and there are a thousand opinions out there. Joe Kisugi got him, the ninjas got him,
Boba Fett got him, it was Jason Bourne who got him. I think, really?
Hold, hold, hold, hold. I'll show you the video.
I will give you my professional analysis of what I think happened and how nobody should
jump to any conclusions on this, okay?
First, an update on the Pete Hegseth situation.
Ladies and gentlemen, we lose Hegseth, we lose everything.
I explained to you yesterday running for office was one of the most instructive things I ever
did in my entire life.
When you run for office, you would be stunned how many people try to buy a chunk of your
soul.
You would be shocked.
No, I wouldn't.
Yes, you would.
You know it happens, but every single issue out there, like Mansur Olson once said, concentrated
interests and diffuse costs.
There is a concentrated interest in everything.
What do you mean, Dan?
Let me just point out something random.
There is a fan over there.
It's one of those like Dyson type fans, because it's not that loud.
There is a fan business lobby out there somewhere, lobbying for some tax carve out or some other benefit
or government handout for people who produce fans.
Go find it.
I promise you it's there.
You would be shocked how many people out there
are trying to buy a piece of your caboose
when you run for office.
Carve off the skin, man.
Sell it off one little chunk at a time. Now, what are they buying? So let's say you're running for office, you're running
for Congress, like I was. They say, Hey, why don't you meet this guy? And it'll always
happen through some person you never even expected. They'll say, I need you to meet
someone. And you think you're going there because it's some activist who believes in
freedom or liberty or something. And long and short of it, what happens? You go to the
Capitol Hill Club?
DC everybody by the way, if you've run for office don't pull shit anyone, you know, this is what happens
You sit down there everybody be oh, let's have some food and then it comes to pitch
Hey, we'll donate uh 20 000 or something to a pack or to your campaign
But here's what we're gonna need and they say it in kind of like a shady fashion
How does that apply to hegseth folks Folks, the defense industry, which I'm not shitting on, OK?
Thank God we've got companies that produce weapons
so we can kill bad guys.
I'm not knocking defense industry people at all.
Good for you.
Our weapons are great.
We kick ass fantastic.
What I am knocking however,
is using that influence and that money
and government contracts to lobby for endless wars.
And there are people making money
or fighting on every single piece
of dry and wet land on planet earth.
Pete is not that guy.
He's not an isolationist,
but Pete is going to ask
the critical question, why the hell are we doing that? I brought this up yesterday. But
one thing and I'm going to give you the numbers. I'm going to put freaking meat muscle on the
bone right here. So you see how much money is at stake. In case you think this is about
principle, Pete had a beer one time, he's had some personal issues.
He's a combat vet. These guys have been through a lot. I give them leeway and you should too.
They're putting their asses on the line so you don't have to. Guy came back and had some
personal issues his life. Yeah, no shit. Can you imagine what these people have seen? What's
your excuse in Congress for having personal issues and having seen Jack shit
but a cocktail party selling your ass?
What's your freaking excuse, dumbass?
Let me hear about some personal issues he had.
He break the law, he do anything, he got over it, he's fine.
Oh, you guys, I see it out of the corner. My no, I'm serious, man
What's your freaking excuse in Congress for being a loser?
Probably going at some drug parties or something like that
The hell's your issue?
It's not just defense industry money
That's not it. There's it, but there's more.
Pete is also gonna be the guy, if we get him in there,
who in conjunction with the commander in chief,
Donald Trump, let's not forget that,
nothing's gonna happen without Trump's approval.
They are going to crush the woke enterprise,
taking over our country and our military,
and getting our war fighters focused on LGBTQIA, BIOPC,
colouring books and paint by numbers things, which is bullshit. Shoot down range and practice.
We don't need them doing colouring books. You doubt me? Here's Pete yesterday talking
about exactly this point that he's going to be focused on one thing.
Lethality, which is a really nice way of saying what?
Killing other bad guys.
That's what he's talking about.
Check this out.
Wonderful process to go through and meet with senators and talk to them, especially members of the Senate Armed Services
Committee whose passion is the Defense Department and our war
fighters to hear what they want to
do to make sure that department is properly oriented for the threats of the
world and make sure that we're putting the warfighters first. That's what
Donald Trump asked me to do. Your job is to bring a warfighting ethos back to the
Pentagon. Your job is to make sure that it's lethality, lethality, lethality.
Everything else is gone. Everything else that distracts from that shouldn't be happening. That's the message I'm hearing from senators in that advising consent process.
It's been a wonderful process. See, Pete's a very eloquent guy. He's an Ivy League educated,
very smart, very friendly, very passionate man of integrity. Pete speaks really nice.
I'm not as eloquent. Here's what Pete's saying there. We're gonna go
kill bad guys again and this woke bullshit you can shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh uh that's why people are freaking out wait then you said this was about money now you say it's about woke yeah I'm saying the same thing. Wokeism is a
really, really expensive endeavor as well, and a lot of people are making a lot of money off it.
Folks, I need you to keep the heat on. I'm telling you behind the scenes, listen to me,
this is the world's most popular podcast. It ain't bragging. It's a fact. Sorry. You have power, the Bongino Army. It's not me. It's you. I can only listen once. I mean it. Glad you liked the show.
A lot of people got shows. You're the ones in charge. You dictate why this show is number
one. You're in charge. And because you're in charge, the you elected Joni Ernst Lindsey Graham and others they should listen
Folks Murkowski from Alaska's garbage. You're never gonna get squat from her ever
She is the worst Republican senator we have ever had as I said with Susan Collins you get what you get
You don't get upset. You're not gonna get any better in Maine. Okay, there is zero excuse for Joni Ernst
Zero excuse and Lindsey Graham from two red states other than
Somehow some way there's someone influencing them and I don't know who is it campaign donations
Is it what I don't know, but they are trying to stop him now
Their stories out there. Oh Pete's in trouble, Pete's in trouble.
Folks, I'm not sure, I'm hearing from my dad, keep the heat on, don't get me wrong, but
that he's not in as much trouble as they're making out, they're just trying to make it
appear. They're telling you a story, not this story. Here's a New York Post, zero Senate
GOPers privately oppose Hegseth for defense pick, as he vows to never back down. Pete's not backing down.
Pete do not back down under any circumstances and Mr. President please do not let Pete's Hegseth
nomination fall. If he does forget it it's over. Tulsi's next and RFK's right after that.
Follow the money. This is about money. This is about defense industry money. And
I'm not shitting on a defense industry. I'll say it a thousand times. Thank you for producing
lethal weapons we can kill bad guys with. Fine. But you should not be influencing public
policy in the way it's happening. And you know it's real. And it's bullshit. And we
as good solid conservatives and MAGA people should
be calling this stuff out. People are going to die because of the like actually die because
of the decisions made. And some of them don't need to be made. They're being made because
of undue influence of a lot of deep pockets. Let's talk about this first. Let's talk about
the DEI cash cow. Why do's talk about the DEI cash cow.
Why do I call it the DEI cash cow?
Because I'm reading an article in City Journal called DEI cash cow.
Is that by Rufo?
I pulled this up yesterday.
It's a great piece.
Folks, Pete wants lethality.
Kill bad guys.
Hey, what about this DEI woke training course?
Double barrel middle finger out the window, throw it in the garbage, you can go wipe your
caboose with it.
There's a lot of money at stake.
Here check out this article.
It's certainly true of the past decade's most fashionable cause, a writing city journal
or DEI.
What might have begun as a social movements now become a business.
Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.
And not just in the U.S. According to McKinsey and company spending on
DEI related efforts across the globe,
totaled seven point five billion dollars in 2020.
If trends continue, the figure will exceed 15 billion by 2026.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's not a 15 billion by 2026. Ladies and
gentlemen, it's not a golden rule of the show. Maybe it's a
silver one, maybe bronze, I don't know. But if you are ever
looking for why people object to good quality principal
candidates like Pete Hagseth, or good solid legislation, I ask
you every time to do what follow the money, follow the money and
you will always find the bad guys.
Every single time.
I've read a whole book called Follow the Money.
It's nearly every scandal of the last 10 years in politics, the last 10 years that I've been
really digging deep into this stuff has some huge money component to it where somebody
was paying somebody to do something.
Here's Statista, it's a nonpartisan site, it's all about statistics.
You want to see how much military spending is involved here?
I'm not telling you this is all a bad thing.
I'm just telling you there's a lot of undue influence and this military industrial complex
thing is not a conspiracy theory, it's freaking real. Here's the outlays according to the CBO for defense in the US
1.1 trillion dollars by 2033.
Folks, there's a lot of money at stake.
What about around the globe?
The value of military spending has grown steadily in the past
years and reached 2.44 trillion dollars in 2023.
That's a lot of trillion dollars folks. That's a lot of trillions dollars folks. That's a lot of tees
There is big money at stake huge money at stake
Don't let Pete fall
If Pete falls we're all gonna go down
I'm telling you if this swamp wins and they get this scalp, folks,
they're all going to nail it on that wall.
And it's going to be a lesson,
a lesson we don't want to learn.
The lesson needs to be taught to them.
And the lesson is this, we're in charge.
We are in charge.
The audience is here.
We're in charge.
Okay, I told you I'd get into this UnitedHealthcare CEO hit.
The only reason I'm getting into this, folks, is it's a specific area of expertise of mine,
targeted violence.
It's what I did for a living before I came over here.
It's been a huge story.
Can you play this on VO up here?
So this is one of the CEOs of the insurance division.
It's a little bit of a graphic video.
So if you have kids, you may not want them to see this,
but you've probably seen it on social media.
Just keep running this on loop.
So guys on the streets of Manhattan, New York,
an area I'm very familiar with,
and this assassin comes up behind him,
has a friend, Guy I know will take care of Spotify and Apple.
We love you guys too and ladies out there.
So yeah, just pause that for a second.
So you see, he's got the hoodie, got the backpack,
has the gloves on, has his face partially covered.
You see, shoots him in the leg first.
You can see that's why he stumbles.
Guy turns around to look,
and then you'll see him manipulating the gun.
I use the word manipulating intentionally.
And then you see, I believe there are three shots fired off,
goes, shoots him in the back and finishes them off.
Now there's immediately, of course, there were a, you know,
a thousand different people on social media commenting about it,
which is cool, man, whatever, do your thing.
I obviously chose not to,
because I want to see what one friends of mine who are professionals in this,
not assassination, but targeted violence, what they think.
And I want to aggregate some data and take a look at this thing a couple thousand times
before I give you an opinion.
So here are my takeaways on this.
One, I mean, it's fairly obvious it's an assassination plot.
And given the nature of the stalking that appeared to happen beforehand, it doesn't
appear to be a case of mistaken identity.
And that's a couple people threw that out yesterday. And that's fine. It could have been a case, but it doesn't appear to be a case of mistaken identity. And that's a couple people threw that out yesterday.
And that's fine. It could have been a case, but it doesn't seem to be here.
But this is really important.
I, they were, you'll notice he manipulate, play that again, if you would.
You'll notice he manipulates the firearm at a couple points.
It looks, and there's some speculation here, right there.
You see it? Okay. So he just does that.
It appears, appears well pretty obviously
he's racking the slide of the firearm which if you have a semi-auto pistol and you have the
proper ammunition the firearm slide racks by itself and locks out when you're empty the the
gas pressure will push the slide back you guys know this if you're obviously gun owners if you don't just know that the only time you would rack a slide after firing around is if you had a misfire,
maybe some subsonic ammunition, some ammunition that wasn't appropriate for the gun or, or
I'm going to throw something out of you. Notice the gun seems really long doesn't it? No,
it's not a Boba Fett Han Solo laser
weapon or that really long Princess Leia one. That is a suppressor on the handgun on the
semi automatic weapon. A suppressor what some people call in the media a silencer. It's
not a silencer. It doesn't silence anything. It's not silent at all. If you've ever used
one, it is a suppressor doesn't sound like it sounds in the movies.
So there are a couple of theories out there on this. I'm going to throw out there. And I say theories because I don't know which one is true yet, but I'd be remiss if I didn't put it out there.
Number one is he could be racking the weapon because he just used the wrong ammo.
Maybe some subsonic ammo, maybe some hand loads. I don't know, but maybe they weren't right for the
weapon. That's why he racked it. Because there was some theory, oh, he's racking it because he's catching the cartridges as
they come out. That's not what happened. They were found at the
scene, not only when they found that the scene, but the words
what did deny, there were three words written on it. And they
were the title of a book about the insurance industry, deny and
something else or three words on it. So there were cartridges found at the scene. He's not catching the cartridges
But I'm gonna throw this out there. There is an issue sometimes with some of these suppressors if you don't
Test these things out right and you don't the the operation of suppressor isn't working properly
You may get a malfunction like that with the slide. I mean, it didn't malfunction. He shot, but it won't cycle.
So that's a possibility too, that he just didn't know what he was doing.
I say that and all this stuff matters.
I'm going to move on in a second here, but there are a number of people out there in
the beginning who are like, this guy's like a Jason Bourne-like professional.
I don't think that's the case at all.
However, he does seem relatively unconcerned with the consequences.
He doesn't seem to be rushing through it. Now, if
you've ever shot a firearm, I mean, if you're in if you've
been in war, you're in a legal your own and you bad bullets
whizzing by your head. But I'm telling you, when I was a cop
early on, when you hear a bullet whizz by your head, like I did
in Halloween of what was it 1999, and you get in a foot
pursuit. I don't care how much training you it, 1999, and you get in a foot pursuit?
I don't care how much training you have, folks, the fog of war kicks in.
This guy doesn't appear that way at all.
He didn't appear to be rushing through this thing at all, not even a little bit.
So although he's probably not some professional Jason Bourne type guy, there may be some mental
illness there, some disconnect from reality, because he doesn't seem, he seems really unconcerned
with the witness right there to the right.
Doesn't seem concerned at all,
and he's certainly not rushing through it.
So listen, I'll just say this one last thing about this too,
because I gotta talk about this story again,
given my history.
It's gonna be really hard for this guy to hide.
The reason is there's a network of cameras around Manhattan.
Believe me, one of my best friends worked in Tehru, and although he's never disclosed, obviously where they are, really hard for this guy to hide. The reason is there's a network of cameras around Manhattan.
Believe me, one of my best friends worked in Tehru,
and although he's never disclosed obviously where they are,
he doesn't give me sensitive information.
The network of cameras around Manhattan
is a drag net between personal and public cameras.
So what you do in a case like this,
this is the same reason I'm telling you
they know who the pipe bomber is,
the pipe bomber on January 6th.
You get the video there, you then see where he went
He went to the left then you go to the next block to the left and you pull that video
Then he made a right you go to the camera on the corner and you see where he went
They can trace this guy all over Manhattan. There is zero chance
This guy's not gonna be found zero and he wasn't smart enough
Obviously when he went at the Starbucks to cover his whole face AI and all that stuff facial
recognition they're probably going to catch him.
I would guess within a few days.
I mean if they don't they don't but I'd be stunned.
There's my take.
I got a lot of questions on it folks in the chat.
Did that segment suck?
Yes, it sucked.
No it didn't.
But you know get on the case because I don't typically do things like this but I got a
lot of questions given my background on it. So I made an executive decision. Gee, did it suck?
Okay, and see geez always honest Michael
He said it sucked all right, then all geez rung again, of course because about you know, thank you's always wrong
Thank you. Okay. Thank you folks in the chat for proving
he wrong. I didn't spend a lot of time on it. All right, moving on. Hey, the feds dropped
interest rates. So you need to call my friends at American financing today. Now is the perfect
time to consolidate dead point and reduce your monthly expense. He consolidate dead.
A lot of us have been forced to use credit cards because of the ridiculous prices at
the grocery store power and even and even childgards.

That's expensive too with credit card rates being ridiculously high.
But with mortgage rates dropping now, now is the time to wipe that debt out.

NMLS, 1-8233-4.
NMLS, consumeraccess.org. Check him out. Thank you, American Financing.
Thank you, guys. No suck there. I appreciate it. I
found that that story just fascinating.
I think we'll find this guy in the next few days and you'll find out that exactly what I told you that it was not
a professional assassin is gonna be true.
He's like, it wasn't Boba Fett. I'm so upset.
What was the guy? Was it Greedo in in a was it Greedo in the in the bar
It's Greedo right where Han Solo takes out Greedo
Now Han man, Han's different Han's like a pro
They shoot some under the table, right? I just jacks him up Greedo. I
Think Greedo got done wrong. By the way, who in the chat thinks Greedo got done wrong?
I think Greedo should have given him a shot. I think heedo got done wrong, by the way. Who in the chat thinks Greedo got done wrong? I think Greedo should have given him a shot.
I think he did Greedo wrong.
Speaking of targeted violence,
the Secret Service Director, Ron Rowe,
is testifying up on Capitol Hill today.
I do not like how Ron Rowe has run the agency.
He got a promotion.
He was the deputy director.
He is now the acting director.
How you get a promotion
after President Trump gets shot in the head and nearly killed
again is a mystery to me that only happens in government. But, you know, I worked there,
again, there's so much talk out there about me and the Secret Service folks, there've been no zero
conversations about that. I can't say it enough. I don't want you to worry about the podcast or
anything like that. But there's a crew of lawmakers up there on Capitol Hill you need to know about they are
Resolutely committed to fixing our broken Secret Service. One of them is Andy Biggs. The other one's Chip Roy
There's a few of them Matt Gates Eli Crane
Who's the other there's another guy?
Johnson yeah, but there's no there's another guy
Gosh, I'm sorry Cory Mills. I'm sorry, I don't want to leave anybody out. They are itching to reform the Secret Service.
Andy Biggs put out a quick video yesterday
about a piece of legislation out there
that is gonna reform the Secret Service,
and it's gonna pull investigations out of there.
Folks, the Secret Service needs to be
protecting the president, President Trump,
and the vice president and their families.
That's it. They don't need to be protecting the president, President Trump and the vice president or families. That's
it. They don't need to be protecting the Prime Minister of Dejavu. I'm sorry, they don't.
Leave that to DSS. They are a great agency, the Diplomatic Security Service. They work
at the State Department. They're fantastic. We don't need to be doing anything else. Here's
your mission. Keep Donald Trump alive. Period. And JD Vance. That's it. The Secret Service wasted a whole bunch of time
doing a bunch of counterfeit investigations passed at a 7-Eleven on a
Saturday night when they should be out there protecting the president. Here's
Andy Biggs on this bill that's finally gonna get rid of the Secret Service
doing investigations and wasting her time. Check this out. I've introduced legislation today realigning U.S. Secret Service and several other police agencies.
I would also tell you that I'm working with my friend Chip Roy from Texas,
who is also working on a very similar approach, and we're going to combine our approaches together
because it is really critical that
we as the United States of America know that we can protect our elected officials and those
who we must protect.
It's a dangerous world and this is a 100% perfect execution requirement mission every
time for U.S. Secret Service.
That's why we're doing these bills and that's why I'm working with Rep. Roy of Texas.
I'll keep you posted.
Good, finally, because something I've told you over and over again folks is we don't have four years to fix the government.
Sure we do. Donald Trump's got a four-year term.
Folks, come on, please, you're at the Bongino Army, you guys know better.
A lot of people out there don't they really believe he has four years
He does not have four years. He has two years the midterms. I always assume are going to be ugly
Could they be great for us to midterms meaning the elections for Congress and the Senate two years? They could be however
I don't believe in could-be's I believe is what what is and for two years
We have the House Senate the White House and, and the Supreme Court. We've got them. So I'm working on a two year timeline.
You want to work on another timeline? You go right ahead. We've got two years to reform
the Secret Service, fix the government, implement the Doge recommendations, clean up our federal
budget, clean out these 458 federal agencies. They want to dump them to 99.
We've got two years.
Now listen, love them or hate them.
I don't really care.
I don't really know this guy that well, but obviously he was a big player in the government
speaker of the house for a long time and did a lot with government reform in the Clinton
era.
Newt Gingrich.
So you don't trust me.
Maybe I'm not saying you guys, you guys are not swampies at all, but maybe you're a swampy
who tunes into the show once in a while and you love uh, gingrich and other government officials fine
Now he agrees with me folks. Have I not been telling you this dan bonjino is not full of shit
Okay, I told you we had two years just the news
By ben weeden. It's a great piece. You should read it
Trump has two years to push his biggest policies through and Republicans know it. Newt Gingrich says experienced Republicans are mindful that their
trifecta may only represent a brief opportunity to make an impact.
Folks midterms traditionally don't go well, not a pessimist.
We could win some seats, but I'm not into could have, should have,
would have I'm into what is we have two years.
That's the reason I'm doubling
down on Pete, doubling down on Secret Service reform, doubling down on the Elon Musk, Vivek
Ramaswamy Doge, Department of Government Efficiency. That's why I'm honing in on Pentagon reform,
FBI reform. We can do magic in two years. And I'm not talking about bullshit kids magic
at a fifth graders birthday party. I'm talking talking about legit we could do like Gandalf the Grey magic kind of shit here, but we've got two years
That's it. I don't want anyone out there in the Bonjina army getting complacent at all thinking we got time
We got time. We don't have time time has us
every time
pun intended
Folks their game plan going forward their game plan going forward that has now been
disrupted.
I'm not talking about they, I'm talking about the left and the deep staters.
Kind of switching gears a little bit.
Was clearly to scam in elections, to set up excessive government spending so that any
cut is portrayed as, you know, starving grandma to death.
It was to cheat, to then lie about it, and to censor anyone who spoke out about it.
The censorship part of the leftist media, bureaucrat, politician, symbiotic, venom-like
organism was the critical part.
When I say censorship, I'm talking about fake fact checks,
the ability to use former pre-Elon Twitter
to shut you down and ban your account.
The censorship was critical.
This segment is super important.
I wanna show you right now a bunch of video clips
on exactly how they were planning to do it
and why they're freaking out right now about people like RFK
and elsewhere
Here's a hint. It's got a lot to do with health care. It's got more to do with censorship
Take our last break and get back to the segment. This is really important
Get your friends and tell them to tune in because this is why they're really pissed off

Okay, back to the show.
Folks, I want you to watch this.
This is an absurd segment on CNN.
Now, why am I playing this clip?
This is one of those clips.
I get asked a lot out in public,
how is it that these liberals believe
all these crazy things?
You guys are Nazis, racists.
You've heard all the nonsense and the bullshit before we get it.
They believe it because this is what they're saturated in.
There's an assumption out there that liberals are going to go out there and actually do
homework.
They will not.
This is why they're gaslighting.
Gaslighting is lying, lying off and lying confidently and isolating people from the
truth.
The censorship component I was talking about before is the way the left isolates you from
the truth
So you never hear an alternate voice. This is why I'm so impressed with this guy
This guy's got Jennings out there on CNN. I play his clips a lot
Here's the CNN audience one of the commentators who actually believes Donald Trump is gonna use the military here
To be targeting American citizens
They believe this kind of crazy because this is what they hear. And when you censor the opposition, which is why I'm stunned they haven't shut this
guy up yet, you get people who believe in crazy shit.
Check this out.
I don't want to be bringing back waterboarding.
I don't want to be a country that tortures people, especially for the kind of country
that's going to be using the military against our own citizens.
This kind of thing concerns me.
What do you mean use against our own citizens?
I'm talking about sending-
You said police states, what do you mean?
What are you mean use against our own citizens? I'm talking about sending... You said police states behave... What do you mean? What are you talking about? I'm talking about
sending the military into blue states to make them behave. Getting Gavin Newsom under control,
getting JP Pritzker under control. What are you talking about? What do you mean? Are you
sitting into the state capitol to commandeer the state government? I mean I hope not but I'm
definitely... he's definitely talked about that. I don't know why you act like you've never heard...
Using the military
to suppress, in the Black Lives Matter era,
those protests in the street.
He has that himself.
Just make sure I understand your position,
that you believe Donald Trump is going to use the military
to set up effectively, like, coups in state capitals
of states that he didn't win.
I think you're taking it a step or two
She said make blue states behave and she also said round up immigrants. That's not true. It's deport illegal immigrants
Michael you see why I played this guys in the chat ladies, you see why I played it
That panel, Jennings, by the way,
is not some like MAGA flamethrower.
He's a conservative guy,
but I'd say moderate on a lot of stuff.
I don't know him personally.
We've never actually met before, I don't think.
It's not the point.
The point is, he's not even one of us in the MAGA sense,
and he's sitting on this panel on CNN and he's sitting there going
Holy shit. What am I hearing? Are you guys crazy and the panel instead of recognizing what this woman said?
That'll trump with the guns and the military and coming at them instead of saying yeah, that's kind of a bridge too far
That sounds nuts. The panel looks at Jennings Michael. Am I right? Like he's nuts
far that sounds nuts. The panel looks at Jennings, Michael am I right? Like he's nuts. He's sitting there like I can't believe I'm surrounded by these morons. And the whole panel's like
Scott calm down Scott. Don't get crazy Scott. Scott's like calm down. I don't need to calm
down. This crazy person needs to calm down. You wonder why liberals believe crazy shit. This is why. This is why.
Hey, that whole panel's convinced he's the lunatic.
Folks, the purchase of Twitter by Elon Musk has changed
everything. The entire game has changed now. Because now boat
loads of non lunatic liberals are not isolated from the truth.
Gaslighting, remember gaslighting, look it up and tattoo it on your brain.
Liberals have lived off it for 50 years.
How do they get people to believe crazy shit?
Lie about it.
Lie often, lie confidently and isolate people from the truth. That's why they love censorship.
But they're losing and they are freaking out.
Why are they going after Hegseth and Cash Patel?
Cue up the Harry Antin clip from CNN next.
Harry Antin's a CNN pollster, reasonably honest guy
from what I've seen, no reason to bash the guy.
Here he is on CNN talking about faith in the FBI. Folks, I don't
have faith in any government entity, any government entity ever. I trust but verify. And everything
I've been able to verify with the FBI is that the management of the FBI is turned political,
has been screwing over the American citizenry. Here's how I know we're winning because the
censorship regime is dying a slow death.
Believe me, I see it from behind the scenes as an investor in alternate tech free speech
of free speech economy.
I see things I don't waste your time with because a lot of its business.
The censorship regime is dying.
It's not dead.
I want to be clear, but it is dying.
Listen to what faith in the FBI looks like when you come to public polling.
This is the kind of stuff that would have been hidden years ago. Check this out.
Patel has real reason to believe that Americans would go along with changes that he might
potentially make at the FBI. And there's a reason why Donald Trump feels like he can make this
change. It's because if you look here, FBI is doing an excellent or good job. Look at this time trend line.
You go back to 2014, right?
It was 59% of Americans.
Then 57% in 2019, 50% in 2022.
Look at where we are today.
My goodness gracious, just 41% of Americans
think the FBI is doing an excellent or good job.
That is by far the lowest number this century.
The bottom line is, far the lowest number this century. The bottom
line is during the Trump administration, obviously there
were the investigations into Donald Trump, you saw a little
bit of drop then and then post January 6. Look at that drop 50%
now 41%. My goodness gracious, Kate Balboa.
Folks, I want to thank you. Look at Michael throwing us in gas
light. There we go to manipulate using
Psychological methods into questioning their own sanity or powers of reason where you start to say to yourself
Am I crazy when people are lying to you? We are winning. Listen, yeah self-praise stinks praising you doesn't
We are winning massive shout out to some of these Twitter accounts out there
Hans monkey you have a shim horn you have other Jeff Carlson if you're not
following these people look them up these were people that for the last five
to seven years turned over for you fan another one turned over massive stones
Marco Polo I'm not trying to leave anyone out. Sarah Carter, John Solomon.
They turned over every single stone on SpyGate. This is the kind of stuff they were hoping to
censor and they couldn't. And that's why the public for the first time is seeing what's
underneath the FBI rock and people don't believe them anymore. But here's the kicker. They don't
believe the media either. We're in charge. I told you that New York Times guy, Stuart Thompson keeps watching our show.
He's like, why do you keep shitting on the media?
Because you guys suck.
Your batting average is like seriously, like 300 and 300 is good in baseball.
It sucks in a media.
It means seven out of 10 times you're wrong.
Put up athlon, Kusarama, I'm sorry, I can't say your name.
Per Axios, which is another left-wing rag.
Viewers aren't tuning in to MSNBC or CNN.
Look at this chart.
Why?
Because people are figuring it out, folks.
The gas lighting isn't working anymore.
Look at these numbers.
Fox's audience has been up and down,
but still relatively high.
Look at CNN and MSNBC.
I wanna show you something.
Here, Stuart, I hope you're watching this right? Our video on demand numbers, right?
Video on demand, go look at them on our rumble page, right? There isn't a show in the last
few weeks that doesn't have a million and a million two views on demand. Now, some of
those are up, put that back up a second if you would. And if you could show my rumble
page when you're done Michael be someone
Do your entrepreneurial thing so?
Folks this is and it's not just me there are other shows kicking ass too again You got Charlie Kirk Benny Johnson Tim Poole Steven Crowder slaying it
So we do about a million to video forget Apple and Spotify which is probably another
500,000 viewers scrap that for now, just video alone.
A lot of those are live streaming so apply like a 40% discount or so say even more. I'll even be generous. Say we have 600,000 people who watch our show, right? You're telling me that us in the
middle of a converted apartment again, with Michael, Michael's by himself over there right now.
Guy walked away, Guy's probably watching Star Wars,
who the hell knows what he's doing, right?
Look at our views, look at this.
This is the views right now on this show.
1.1 million, 1.2 million, 1.3 million.
We're beating MSNBC and CNN, billion dollar enterprises.
The numbers back it up. This is the home for truth, man. Trust in the media is collapsing because we don't lie to you. I
don't jump out ahead of the United Health CEO story and start speculating
with crazy Jason Bourne theories because I don't want to waste your freaking time.
You guys are valuable to me. And as a consumer of podcasts and products too, I don't like when I'm being bullshitted
Even if I don't agree with the person I don't like being lied to
Speaking of podcasts the absolute king of podcasts is Joe Rogan. There's no question about it
There's an interesting article in the atlantic this morning about Joe Rogan actually how Joe Rogan is the media now
morning about Joe Rogan actually. How Joe Rogan is the media now. Atlantic's a left-wing rag, but it's worth your time. It's behind a paywall, so I wouldn't recommend you subscribe or anything,
but if you can get it, you should get it. It talks about how this new media landscape is
totally different. You can only lie to people and censor them for so long before they... Remember
the analogy I used to use about the beach ball underwater? You can only hold it down for so long
before it explodes.
Rogan is the media now.
Even if you don't like his content, the guy's got a massive audience.
The great Mike Benz, the deep state specialist, went on Joe Rogan's show and he was talking
about this censorship complex.
And folks, the thing they're trying to censor are populist movements around the world.
The MAGA movement, the populist movement in Brazil, the populist movement happening right now in France, if you've been watching what's going on
with the snap elections over there.
They're trying to crush populist movements.
They can't have you freely exchanging information.
Listen to Ben's explain this on Rogan.
This is great.
There were events in the run-up.
Well, it all sort of happened simultaneously, really,
because the month that Elon announced his acquisition
was the same month that the Disinformation Governance Board
was announced at DHS, which because the the month that Elon announced his acquisition was the same month that the disinformation
governance board was announced at DHS which was the first thing that really
roused Republicans and frankly anyone with institutional power in DC to
finally stare into the Sun and recognize or at least begin to glimpse the size of
what they were up against. The Disinformation Governance Board set off a flurry
of congressional activity from Chuck Grassley and other,
you know, luminaries in Congress.
There were a lot of, there's whistleblower documents came out
and for years the entire Republican Party and most
of the Democrat Party had denied the existence of government censorship.
And it, frankly, the Ministry of Truth
was not the Disinformation Governance Board.
The Disinformation, the Ministry of Truth
had already existed three years earlier at DHS.
They just made, they just called it
a name that masked what it did.
It was called the Cybersecurity
and Infrastructure Security Agency.
Folks, the government has been doing this forever.
They are trying to crush populist movements around the world.
And anyone, I want to be clear on this, anyone on the other side
of censorship is going to become an enemy of the deep state.
No, I'm protected if I'm a Democrat, which I'm not.
You are not protected. Listen to me, which I'm not. You are not protected.
Listen to me, Democrats watching my show,
you're out there, I get your emails.
I've converted quite a few of you and I appreciate it.
You are not safe from them.
If you speak out against censorship, you are next.
Folks, listen, I appreciate President Trump's vision
of what he wants to do with his cabinet.
And I think RFK has had a genuine conversion.
I met him in the green room at the UFC.
It wasn't like some big long conversation, but it was good enough.
And I trust President Trump's vision of what he wants to do.
He's going to be his nominee for HHS.
If President Trump thinks that's the guy, then you know what?
That's good enough for me and I'm going to support him.
And I'm going to assume he's got some vision here with this.
RFK has become an enemy of the left.
Let's just be candid though about who RFK, what RFK is a Democrat his entire life
and a left leaning one for a long time.
That's not a mystery.
Why is he now all of a sudden an enemy of the left?
Cause I believe he's had a genuine awakening and I use those words deliberately.
He's had a genuine awakening as to what the left has become, a party of censorship. Listen to this
clip, RFK, very carefully and you'll see why this guy's public enemy number one. Yeah, a lot's got
to do with Big Pharma and other stuff like that, but this is the real reason they hate RFK. Listen
to him on censorship. Check this out.
Never been a time in history when the good guys were the people who were censoring books
and sending 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, mass,
the forced vaccination, et cetera.
And now it's clear that those policies
were not beneficial to public health.
But I think the media got into this
usher of censorship and it's hard for them to relinquish it.
Folks, I like to do deeper dives.
I don't like to be superficial at stuff.
And I give you both sides.
Yes, RFK was a Democrat and a left leaning one.
Anyone telling you otherwise is lying to you
and gaslighting you and this show is not doing that.
If I lose people, that's fine.
We'll gain people in the end
because this is a home for truth, okay?
I genuinely believe what changed RFK
was the COVID fiasco within the government,
the massive scandal about the vaccine, the censorship.
I am not on YouTube anymore.
You know why?
We were banned.
You know why we were banned from YouTube?
Because we told people the truth about COVID. Go look it up. We put up the
headlines a thousand times about masks and vaccines and we were told you say it
again you're gone and we did and we're gone. Now we're on rumble. I don't care. I
don't miss YouTube one bit. It's not a sob story. I'm just telling you COVID
changed a lot of people and it broke the censorship complex
because the average person didn't wanna jam a shot
into his kid's arm who was at low risk for COVID,
found out if he said anything,
he was kicked off social media too.
Now, the tactics part of this show is important.
The left is going to use this tactic
on Elon and Trump moving forward because they've been doing it now for 10 years.
And you need to be savvy to it.
You ready? I want you to watch this CNN clip and I want you to watch it critically.
Because once you see this, you'll never unsee it.
Going forward, the Department of Government Efficiency, this Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy led effort to clean up ridiculous government overspending, right?
The only way they can argue against this, because no one wants to waste taxpayer money, correct?
No, even, you know, smart Democrats and few we have left are like, well, we don't want to waste
money. The only way to argue against it is going to be to go back to the same freaking go to they go to every time.
Man, pointing this out, you guys could be inciting violence against government workers.
No, they're doing it again. Don't fall for this bullshit. They say it every single time.
Anytime you point something out, you're inciting violence. They could call you a Nazi, a Ku
Klox Klan member, a racist. That's not inciting violence. They can actually call for violence against you. Remember
Rick Wilson? Someone's got to have to put a bullet in his head. That doesn't matter. But you say,
hey man, this agency has hired a lot of people. We don't really need the government. You're
definitely inciting violence. You doubt me? It's already started. Watch this.
There is some concern, not just about people's jobs, but about their personal safety given
the way that they are, particularly Elon Musk, is behaving on his social media platform.
Yeah, federal employees that you talk to, civil servants, they are prepared. They know
that job cuts are coming, but something that they were not prepared for and that they're
very afraid of is being personally targeted by people like Elon Musk. And that's because
just a few weeks ago, we saw Elon Musk reposting some accounts on X
that were posting screenshots
of this publicly available federal database
of civil servants.
And they're pointing out what they say were sort of,
they consider them absurd jobs.
These are things like director of climate diversification,
chief climate officer.
We have some of these posts on X that he made,
and we actually blurred out the names of these civil servants to protect their privacy, which is not something that Elon
Musk did when he reposted this. Now, he reposted these posts with comments like, so many fake
jobs. But whatever you think of these jobs and whether they should exist or not, those
people that he listed, they are private individuals. They are not public facing individuals. And
now they're receiving a torrent of online hate
and potentially even more threats offline.
They are not private individuals.
You pay them.
Now, again, let me be clear
for the Stuart Thompson's of the world,
crystal clear, Scotch tape clear.
Under no circumstances whatsoever should anybody be threatening anyone for going to work in
the government.
I worked for the government.
A lot of very patriotic, country loving people work for the government because they think
it's the right thing to do.
We all get that.
And any lunatic threatening these people, you're not welcome on the show and you never
will be. That is a red line, we never cross,
and we will never cross, and that's a full stop.
However, these are not private individuals.
They work for us.
You were paying them.
It is public information.
Inciting violence, are you for real?
It was like the people complain about Fauci.
Oh my gosh, what balls people have criticizing Dr. Fauci.
Dr. Fauci is not a private doctor.
He works for us.
Dr. Fauci doesn't like public criticism.
Dr. Fauci shouldn't work for the public.
You believe this shit?
They do this every time.
They'll call you a Nazi, they'll actually
incite violence against you, cover up for BLM Antifa violence during the Floyd riots,
and then you go, hey man, does this guy Joey Bagadonis really need to be a $175,000 a year
paid employee of an entity that's not really doing anything in the federal government?
That's definitely inciting violence ladies and gentlemen
That's bullshit, and you know it do not fall for this stuff
The government and government. I'm not knocking government employees. I worked for the government
I worked for the NYPD and the Secret Service and then went to the private sector, okay?
I am NOT knocking government employees. I mean it passionately.
There are people who do really amazing things. Okay? I get it. My local sheriff here is one of
my best friends and an amazing guy. He is a government employee and the county's safe because
of him. Our military heroes, they're government employees too. They work for the government.
However, there is a ridiculous amount of waste in government and the government should not live by
separate rules that the private sector doesn't. They're not sinecures, they're
not positions for life where their entitlements. That's not the way this
works. Here's another killer segment from Joe Rogan shows Mark Andreessen,
who's a tech investor, among other things. And here's Andreessen on
government rules for government that don't seem to apply to
you about working from home.
Go back to work.
I'm sorry.
Everybody else asked to me.
Oh, Dan, you work from home.
No, not anymore.
Do I live here, Guy?
No, I don't.
I just grew up that question.
I live here.
Oh, I get where you're going with this.
Okay. Well, technically it is my house,
but no Michael, cause he keeps messing it up. Do I live here? Thank you.
He's fairly certain. I do not.
So don't send anything cause I don't live here anymore.
Play this clip by Mark Andreessen. Check this out.
You know, most federal workers never came back to work. Really?
Yeah, they work from home.
Most?
Most, yeah.
Like, what percentage?
A very large percentage.
Something like half just literally just never came back.
Whoa.
And they still, by the way, still draw a paycheck.
They're still on their jobs.
But literally, they're not in the office.
Or in some cases, they have an agreement
where there's one agency I probably won't name,
but there's one agency where there's the worthy.
OK, here's another great thing.
There are agencies of the federal government whose I won't name, but there's one agency where there's, there were the, there's, okay, here's another great thing.
There are agencies of the federal government whose workforces are both civil servants,
civil, have full civil service protections and, and unionized.
Entirely paid for by the taxpayer, but they both have civil service protections, which
by the way are totally made up.
There's no concept in the constitution of like civil service protections.
It's just like a totally made up thing.
And they're unionized.
And then there's a particular agency
that I know of where the union negotiated
the return to the office from COVID
and the agreement was you have to be
in the office one day a month.
Whoa.
And actually the pattern now is what they do
is the employees come in on the last day of the month
and the first day of the following month.
So they only have to be there for two days.
For two months.
Out of 60 days.
That's crazy.
Folks, that sounds like a scam. Let's drop in on the 31st and the 1st and you
don't have to see me again for another two months. I mean, come on, man. You got
people busting their ass out there for a living sitting up in a hot attic
working on an HVAC system. People always laugh. I bring up HVAC all the time.
You know why? Because Florida's freaking hot.
Let's try this again. Guy, is Florida hot? He's like, no, no, Florida's not hot.
Florida's freaking hot. You're working up in an attic. I see these guys suffering. You think they want to hear your bullshit stories about how,
Oh my gosh, I got to come in three days every 60 days instead of two. No, I'm sorry.
You live by a separate set of rules,
you get stuff like this.
Government waste is everywhere.
It's time to clean it out, it's our freaking money.
Here's Buttigieg.
Did you see this clip from a couple weeks ago?
He can't explain why billions of dollars was stolen from you
to put electric car charging stations around the country
and they've managed to build what?
Eight or seven for billions of dollars?
Here, give me a couple hundred thousand I'll build a
couple here in Martin County this is what your government's paying for watch this. The Federal
Highway Administration says only seven or eight charging stations have been produced with a seven
and a half billion investment that taxpayers made back in 2021. Why isn't that happening more quickly?
So the president's goal is to have half a million chargers up by the end of this decade. Now, in order to do a charger,
it's more than just plunking a small device into the ground. There's utility
work, and this is also really a new category of federal investment. But
we've been working with each of the 50 states. Every one of them is getting
formula dollars to do this work, engaging them in the first handful again
by 2030, 500,000 chargers and the very first handful of chargers are now
already being physically built.
Folks, the government is incapable of doing anything right.
I was driving in my car once I was listening to C-SPAN and now it's the only
station I could get. I was running for office in the Western Maryland mountains,
knocking on doors. True story. I'm listening to father Bob Cerrico is a very conservative priest
He was talking at the Acton Institute and he said something I'll never forget and you shouldn't forget it either
He said it's not that government's too big
It's a government's too stupid
There is no incentive for government to do anything
There is no incentive for government to do anything correctly because government doesn't profit at all from doing it correctly.

Clean this mess up, man.
And if we don't do it in two years, it's never going to happen.
We've got two years.
