Starting point is 00:03:29 People like that. So someone sent me an email there saying, I know it's time to get into it. So we appreciate it. Sounds good. All right, let's get right to the show today. So here are the hard, cold facts about the role of Congress and the vice president, January 6th.
Starting point is 00:03:41 Ladies and gentlemen, it's important. I said in my tease, I do exclusively on Parler before the show every morning. I'm at D. Bongino in Parler if you'd like to follow me. There's a lot of confusion. Can the vice president pick what slate of electors? Here's the long and short of it. On January 6th, coming up right away, right quick, right quick,'s my friends down south say at 1 p.m they will start counting and uh the electoral college votes up in the capitol to certify that election okay now that is according to both procedures in the constitution and 3 usc 15 combined the procedure was more clearly delineated later in this electoral electoral college count act in the late 1800s,
Starting point is 00:04:28 after some disputes of how the procedure was supposed to work. There's a ton of confusion. Can the vice president unilaterally pick which electors? If there's a dispute, we're going to go through it piece by piece. I went through the, I think the entire internet yesterday. I think I, cause I had four hours in the chemo chair. I think I searched the whole internet. Damn, that's not possible. It's close to possible because I wanted the best piece that explained it in plain English. So we
Starting point is 00:04:55 don't have to be legal scholars, every one of us to figure out what the hell's going on. Here it is. Epic times. Great job. By the way, if you want to read the piece, subscribe to my newsletter it's all free bongino.com slash newsletter just click subscribe i'll send these articles right to you um this one's great epic times walks through peace by it's not even that long you read it you'll be a constitutional scholar tomorrow this is by peter swab who does great work the power of the vice president to count or reject electoral votes is disputed. So let's lay out the parameters. January 6th, they're going to count these electoral votes. There's a dispute in many states, which slate of electors, in other words, did Donald Trump win
Starting point is 00:05:33 that state or lose that state? There's a dispute. Is there not? If there wasn't, I wouldn't be talking about it. There's a dispute over Pennsylvania, 200,000 people whose votes were counted who didn't vote. covered that yesterday i can't go through it again today watch yesterday's show you'll get the full details 200,000 people allegedly votes were counted who didn't vote weird okay so let's go through step one what exactly is supposed to happen on january 6th at 1 p.m this is kind of important stuff to know this because the media doesn't want to do any research so it. So it's up to people like me who do actual reporting to tell you. From the Epoch Times piece, here's how it's supposed to work. The counting of votes is primarily governed by the
Starting point is 00:06:14 12th Amendment of the Constitution and the amended Electoral Count Act. That's what I was talking about before. The Constitution simply states this, that electors of each state have to meet and make a list of their votes. Here's the exact wording, which they shall sign and certify. So electors from the states have to meet, sign this, who their electoral votes are for, and certify them. They then send those to the president of the Senate, meaning Vice President Mike Pence. Okay, sounds like a simple procedure. Florida voted for Donald Trump. They have 29 electoral votes.
Starting point is 00:06:47 Each of the 29 electors from Donald Trump, Donald Trump signed. Yes, we are submitting our votes for Donald Trump. They make it up to the Capitol. The tellers from the House and the Senate picked them up, opened the envelopes. My vice president reads them. Vice president says, Florida, Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Anybody? Audience on Budsman Joe, any confusion there? No. Miss Paula, the great Miss Paula. No confusion, pretty simple stuff, right? Well, not so much. That's how it's supposed to work. Of course, as with everything in our process,
Starting point is 00:07:18 in a free society, there's always going to be disputes about what exactly each and every word means. So here's how disputes over who want to state, and there are disputes. There's liberal media people listening who will pretend there aren't. I don't care. You get the double-barreled, if you know what I mean. The double-barreled index finger, because the video version should be somewhat family-friendly. We don't care what you think. There are disputes in Michigan. There are disputes in Pennsylvania. There are disputes in Georgia. Thank you, period,sylvania there are disputes in georgia thank you period full stop here's how according to this epic times
Starting point is 00:07:49 piece which is very well done here's how disputes are supposed to work thanks to 3 usc 15 this electoral count the act that they passed in the late 1800s check this out it says quote then in rather convoluted language the law again they're talking about this 3 USC 15. USC stands for United States Code, says that Congress members can object. So keep this up if you don't mind, Miss Paula. So as these tellers open the electoral college votes from each state like Florida and read them, members can object. Say, hey, I don't think Trump won Florida, whatever. Now, how does the how does the objection work?
Starting point is 00:08:27 At least one objection from each chamber is needed to trigger a separate vote by the House and Senate on the objections. In other words, say, excuse me, forgive me, folks. We have to deal with this throughout the show today. It's the one downside of chemo that drives me crazy, the hiccups. And so I'm very sorry.
Starting point is 00:08:44 I just can't edit it all out of the show. We're doing our best though. All you need is one congressman and one senator to object and say, Joe, again, follow me as the audience on Buzzman. I object to Florida going for Trump. If that happens, a separate vote is taken on the House and Senate floor about the objections.
Starting point is 00:09:04 If both chambers agree that the objection's legitimate, then the objected voters are rejected. That's virtually out of the question, given that the Democrats own the majority in the House. So if someone were to say, in other words, hey, I think Donald Trump won Georgia. I object, even though according to the current tally, he didn't. They have to vote on it. The Democrats are on the House. Democrats are going to say, forget the objection. You're out.
Starting point is 00:09:29 Everybody tracking? Pretty simple, right? If two sets of electors are presented for counting, the House and Senate need to separately vote on which set of electors submitted by the state are legitimate and which should be rejected. If each chamber votes differently, here we go, the set certified by the state's governor should count. That would hand the victory to Biden.
Starting point is 00:09:52 This is not as complicated as it sounds. They actually do very well. I know most of you get it. But let's say a state submits two sets of electors. Georgia sends electors that say Donald Trump won and electors that say Donald Trump won and electors that say Joe
Starting point is 00:10:07 Biden won. There's a separate vote on that about which set of electors to pick. Tracking on Budsman, Joe? Yep. If there's a difference, meaning say the Democrat House says, no, no, we think Biden won Georgia and say the Republican Senate, we're talking about our U S Senate, not the member of the state of Georgia is already submitted to separate set of electors. If the Senate, the U S Senate says, because it's run by Mitch McConnell and the Republicans, no, no, we think the Georgia set of electors for Trump won Georgia. Then what happens? Then what's supposed to happen is the electors signed off by the governor, who's a Republican governor of Georgia, Brian Kemp,
Starting point is 00:10:49 which would be the ones that say Biden won. Those are supposed to be accepted. Okay. Some of you now are probably tracking everyone. Some of you now are like, eh, are you giving me the go ahead? Am I over explaining too much? Is that what I'm going to do? Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:11:01 She always has a good editorial taste for the show. I thought she was giving me the, come on, speed it up, buddy. So just has a good editorial taste for the show. I thought she was giving me the, come on, speed it up, buddy. So just to be clear, it seems pretty straightforward, but some of you who are a little more legally savvy than the rest of us, you may be lawyers, paralegals, or you do a lot of homework into this stuff. We're covering a lot of other news. They're saying, where's that in the constitution? So if two separate electors from georgia one say biden won one say one set of electors say trump won are submitted and then the u.s house says because there's a dispute biden won and the u.s senate says trump won then we have to accept the ones that governor
Starting point is 00:11:37 signed where exactly is that in the constitution i don't know because it's not. Let's go on. A lot of screenshots from this piece, but it's good. Worth reading through. Here's some problems with that. And I quote from the Epoch Times, the problem is there's a voluminous body for liberals. That means a lot. Voluminous body of legal analysis, arguing that the electoral count act Again 3 USC 15 if you'd like to look it up Is unconstitutional Congress has no business Granting itself the authority To decide which slate of electors is the correct one
Starting point is 00:12:14 And which vote should be rejected Nor does Congress Have the power to designate state governors As the final arbiters A lineup of legislators and legal scholars Have argued this. Again, for the liberals listening, we would call this, producer Joe, get ready, a dispute. A dispute.
Starting point is 00:12:33 A dispute which you would think the media, like we're doing in the Epoch Times, is covering fairly. I'm only giving you the facts that there are credible legal scholars on both sides of this debate saying the procedure now, if there's a dispute about who won a state that can't be resolved amongst the House and Senate of the U.S. Congress, then we should accept who the governor of the state signed off on, that slate of electors. There is a legal dispute about it. The media, there's no legal.
Starting point is 00:13:02 No, no, no, there is. Very smart people say that's not in the constitution. Some others say, well, we've written the law that way, according to what the U.S. House said. So that's the law. That's the dispute. Very simple. But it is a dispute.
Starting point is 00:13:17 That's a fact. And again, to quote Ben, facts don't care about you. I don't care about your feelings. I'm just telling you what the facts are. There is a credible legal dispute about that process. Who anointed the governor's kings? The states did. The constitution doesn't say anything about the governor's role and nowhere. Sorry. Here are the two sides to the argument i again unlike media outlets not patting myself on the back a lot of good people do this a lot of great podcasters and media people out there i'm gonna give you both sides and here's another crazy opinion joe i'm gonna allow you the very
Starting point is 00:13:58 smart audience i have god bless your souls i read your emails you're're brilliant. I'm going to let you figure out for yourself. What a crazy thought. I'll give you both sides. Here's side one. The argument that the vice president, currently Mike Pence, obviously, has sole authority here to pick the electors in the dispute, not the governors. Let's put up the Epoch Times piece. Save this piece. It's really very, I know I've said it two or three times, but it's worth your time.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Gosh, crap. I got the hiccups. Sorry, folks. I'm hoping it's just mild. Some jurists say it's the vice president who has the sole discretion to decide which votes to count. The argument is that the framers intended for the vice president to be the sole authority over the counting of the votes because the unanimous resolution attached to the constitution said that the Senate should appoint its president quote for the sole purpose of receiving opening and counting votes for the
Starting point is 00:15:03 president. So there you go. There's one side of the argument. You know what? Can you throw that up one more time? I just want to read that last part again. One side of the argument is the vice president, Mike Pence, has the sole purpose of receiving opening and counting the votes for president.
Starting point is 00:15:17 All right, come back to me. I just want to make sure you heard that. One side of the legal argument is, no, it's not about the governors and it's not about anything else other than the vice president having the authority to do that. That's one side. There is another side to this. Another side, by the way, and listen, folks, there are conservatives. Forget the liberals aren't, sadly, not all, but most liberals aren't serious people.
Starting point is 00:15:44 They're not interested in serious legal arguments. Everything's about their feelings and emotions. And when they have the sads, I mean, pat them on the back, rub their heads. There are conservatives on both sides of this argument, just so we're clear. And I'm not talking about fake conservatives. I'm talking about real conservatives. There are some conservatives who say, yes, the vice president can say, no, those electors matter.
Starting point is 00:16:04 Got it? Very simple. Disputed electors, Georgia sends two slates. Vice president can say it's no, Trump won. Some good conservatives believe that. Some other good conservatives say, that's insane. That's not how it works. And like you would think actual media people would do, we're going to give you the other side. In the epic times piece, let's go to the other side. Just so we're clear, again, there are two sides to this. With good, solid people, this is a little long.
Starting point is 00:16:31 This is about two and a half paragraphs or so, but I want you to listen to this because it's important because I'm getting a lot of emails. Dan, the vice president has the absolute authority. Folks, it's not exactly that clear, and I'm not going to spin your wheels. I absolutely refuse. I'm going to let you make your own decisions.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Here's the second side of it. Quote, Epic Times. The second argument is that the Constitution, our U.S. Constitution, grants the authority to determine how electors are picked to state legislatures. As such, any disputes over which votes should be counted should be resolved by state legislatures. The Constitution does say that. The problem is state legislatures aren't in session and they can't assemble in a special session without a call from the governors. Who have refused to call them back.
Starting point is 00:17:22 who have refused to call them back. Meanwhile, the legislatures have usually delegated the power to certify electors to the governors and secretaries of state, undermining their own authority on the matter. The conservative Amistad Project of the Thomas More Society has filed a federal lawsuit arguing that the power of the legislatures is both exclusive and non-delegable and thus any state and federal statutes to the contrary are unconstitutional and void folks again anyone presenting this to you as a simple argument is just i'm sorry they're not telling you the truth there is a credible dispute amongst credible conservatives who are fighting a good fight over who picks what slate of electors, essentially who won each state, who picks them.
Starting point is 00:18:14 If there's a dispute, if there's no, listen, there's no dispute over who won New York, California, right? I mean, we all get that. Biden won New York and California. There's also no dispute over who won Texas or Florida, Trump, Trump, everybody clear? If there's a dispute, there is a legitimate legal dispute based on the reading of the constitution and subsequent law about who picks. Is it Mike Pence or is it state legislatures? You may say simple, read the constitution. It's very clear, state legislation. They're not in session, number one. And number two, the state legislatures have already said, we don't want that power. We're giving it to the governor or secretary of state in our state. Dan, give us an answer. Who's right?
Starting point is 00:19:23 Folks, the whole school of ethics is based on the massive gray areas we have in society. There'd be no ethics courses if everything was black and white, right? If the answers were obvious, why would you have the course? It'd be like arguing over 10 plus 10 equaling 20. But this isn't mathematics, algorithms, trigonometry, the quadratic equation. That's not what this is. This is a law. And the law that sometimes seems black and white, the Constitution delegates the power to state legislatures, isn't because it also delegates powers to the vice president. In this case, it appears to be powers that conflict because state legislatures have turned their powers over to the governor.
Starting point is 00:19:53 I don't have an easy answer for you. I can tell you I'm leaning towards option two. And I must say, some of the attacks on Pence have been grotesque. Pence's a good man. He's trying his best under very difficult conditions. I'm not going out on a limb by saying that. No one has asked me to say that, but Pence's a good man. It's a very difficult condition. This is a really tough dispute going on right now, and I think it needs to be handled responsibly like many of you are and many of the media
Starting point is 00:20:26 class aren't. And it's really sad. All right, moving on. You know what? Let me get to my second sponsor today. Good friend of ours, Rock Auto. Joe's personal favorite, I think. After maybe Rock Audio and Vincera Auto.

Again, it's a story about fake book, but it's not necessarily a story about fake book. It's a story about election interference right now in the Senate race in Georgia.

Starting point is 00:22:55 Ladies and gentlemen, this is serious. I hate to make these segments about me because it's my show. You hear enough from me during the show about me because it's my show. But this is important because there's an election going on in Georgiaorgia and an important one right now the rock auto's still up um so it's critical that we call this stuff out for what it is so yesterday i'm sitting there in the dreaded chemo chair right it's long you're there for like four hours. They have to drip four bags into you. The last one takes two hours. The, uh, the diet, dark carbazine, you have four drugs and ABVD chemo. You have a dream isin bleem isin. I forget the V and then, uh, doc, doxic carbazine or something, but the adreomycin from the beginning is red. So you, you look up online chemo, the red devil,
Starting point is 00:23:42 they call it the red devil. That one hit me like a ton of bricks yesterday. The red devil, Diablo Rojo, like Hilaria Baldwin would say, Diablo Rojo. I mean, when you go to the bathroom and you be, you can see it's the red devil. You're like, man, maybe the pink devil, but that stuff's a myth. So I'm sitting there and you know, it hit me hard. So I wasn't in the best of moods yesterday. Cause usually when you're to kim you don't feel you feel at hours that yesterday's for maybe it was the fourth one was no good no point no bueno if alaria ballman was talking and i see on my facebook page your fate your page has been uh whatever fact checked or we had to put a note on one of your posts because it's missing context i'm like like, here we go again with fake book.
Starting point is 00:24:25 Fake book strikes again. So what happened? Let me walk you through this to show you what they do and how Facebook pages like mine, which are very popular, they're popular despite fake book. Because liberal people say, what is Dan Bongino complaining? Is pages number one or number two in a country on any given day based on crowd tangle. It's because you share it. It's not fake book doing anything for us. They reject most of our ads. It's popular because of you. You click share. That's all. That's the only reason. It's got nothing to do with liberals conspiracy theories. So in order for fake book to get in the way of my popularity, my page, I have to invent ways to stop you from sharing my stuff on Facebook.
Starting point is 00:25:10 So this is what they do. They put little notes on my post to make it seem like my page is incredible. What happened? Let's walk through it piece by piece. First, here's the clip. It's a little bit long, but it's worth replaying. I did a, on this show, we post video clips of my show on Facebook. If you ever want to see them, we do like three or four short segments a day. of my show on Facebook. If you ever want to see him, we do like three or four short segments a day. This one went viral. It was a clip of me and Joe going back and forth about statements made by Democrat Senate candidate in Georgia, Raphael Warnock, who's a pastor, says things that are not pastor-like all the time, calling out America's love affair with whiteness, which by its very nature is a racist statement. Shockingly, fake books sick their fact checkers on us and said that was missing context.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Ladies and gentlemen, watch the clip I did. We quote the guy. It's his own video. Joe didn't edit this. It's his own video. Check this out. Here is the video of Mr. Warnock. If you can tell me how this is not a racist statement, I'd love to hear it.
Starting point is 00:26:10 Send me a message on Parler. I would love to hear how this is not a racist statement. Check this out. No matter what happens next month, more than a third of the nation that would go along with this is reason to be afraid. America needs to repent for its worship of whiteness on full display. Now back to me.
Starting point is 00:26:32 Live me. Like today me. I have a different shirt on, so those watching on Rumble, it'll be by repping our great friends, great charity, Folds of Honor. Awesome. Love them. That was the segment. We had to cut it a little bit short joe and i went on to banter a little bit but i don't you know i don't want to play the whole thing's like three plus minutes long so rafael warnock joe played the vid we did not edit it we cut it for time
Starting point is 00:26:57 which by the way ladies and gentlemen is done in every single news and opinion program on planet earth joe you were in radio what 30 years maybe more when you were doing radio and you're playing a snippet of a presidential speech by george bush obama trump do you play the entire speech on the radio program just check if there's dead air there and why waste the space yeah you just clip it out you just play a clip right so if we have a clip saying like obama said like you know if you like your plan you can keep your plan like you play the clip because that part's interesting but you don't play the three hours of his speech just checking right no okay thank joe has been in the business longer than me maybe i'm missing something so we did not play the entire
Starting point is 00:27:39 warnock speech we played the portion of the speech in his own words that was controversial. Now, you may say, well, what context was missing? Let's be clear what he was talking about there. He said in the beginning of that clip, if you rewind it, he said a month from now, he's talking about the election. That speech was given in, or sermon, was given given October of 2016 before the election of Donald Trump. And he's talking about America's love affair with whiteness and how we need to renounce this. Here's the actual note I got on my because I'm on the business side of my Facebook account.
Starting point is 00:28:23 You'll see a, when you go to this post on Facebook, when was it Paula? December 14th, December 14th, I think was the initial. And we, by the way, just so you know, like in case you think I ever fake the funk, which I don't, you know, I walk the walk folks every time, every time I do it. In case you think I'm scared of Facebook banning me, I don't care at all. I'm telling you not to show off, not to be Mr. Tough Guy. We make a lot of money on Facebook. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:28:53 A lot. Like life-changing money. Don't care. Now, that's easy for me to say, but in a big double-barreled index finger, to fake book, I called my fake book buddy who helps me get the stuff up because we you know we have producers and said we'll put the video up and i said do me a favor in case you think i'm making this up look the original post was december 14th when i put
Starting point is 00:29:15 that video up i said then this is what the clip is i said repost that same exact clip today. And that's what we did. Making fun of fake book on fake book. Ban us. We don't care. I love Parler. I'm not kidding. It's not about the money. If it was, I wouldn't do it.
Starting point is 00:29:37 I'd be like, ah, let's apologize. No, not doing that. Those are his words. Here's what appeared on my business side of the account, which you didn't get to see. You're just going to see a missing context when you go to the December 14 post. Said a post shared by your page is missing context. Independent fact checkers.
Starting point is 00:29:58 At USA Today, say that information in a post shared by me, Dan Bongino, is missing context and could mislead people. We have added a notice to the post. And then it gives you a link to the USA Today fact check. What does the fact check say? I'll show you this in a minute. The whole article. Reverend Warnock's sermon on whiteness condemns racism?
Starting point is 00:30:29 It's not a fake that's hilarious so to be clear telling Americans or implying through your sermon it's a pastor so of course anything he says has to be stated as gold.
Starting point is 00:30:46 Implying through your sermon that whiteness is bad, skin color, and has to be renounced, is condemning racism? I'm sorry, Paul, we have to do this again. Face ID, there you go, kick right in there. I'm so red today from the chemo. Joe was like, you look a little funny. I know.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Let's go to the left's favorite dictionary.com. And let's put in racism here and see what it says. Because we may be off on it. You know, the left loves a dictionary. Dictionary.com has probably changed the definition of racism. A belief or doctrine that inherent differences, inherent, meaning you were born with them, like your skin color. Joe, just checking. That's what, that mean inherent differences, inherent, meaning you were born with them, like your skin color. Joe, just checking.
Starting point is 00:31:26 That's what, that'd be inherent differences, right? You inherited them. That whiteness would be, right? You can't change your rate, like inject yourself. No, I got that from my parents. Yeah. Well, Paul is right. Unless you're Hilaria.
Starting point is 00:31:40 I'm sorry. Dictionary.com. Matt Palumbo, our Bongino reporter, also suggested that too, that after the Hilaria Baldwin scandal, dictionary.com will change the definition of Spanish groups determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to dominate others, that a particular racial group is inferior to others. Condemning whiteness as a curse and inherent genetic characteristic, that fits that definition perfectly. But somehow the fact checkers, dreaded air quotes at USA Today have totally flipped the script to suggest
Starting point is 00:32:28 that Warnock saying that is condemning racism. You're like, I must be living in the George Costanza Seinfeld episode where he does everything backwards and his life seems to work out better because he's been a failure up to that point. Curses out his boss. He gets a promotion. Remember that episode? It's one of my faves. Works for George Steinbrenner. Curses him out. Gets a promotion with the Yankees.
Starting point is 00:32:54 You must think we're living in bizarro Superman land where everything's upside down. We are. We are living in a society with a deconstruction of society and the weaponization of language. Please watch yesterday's show about that part too. That was important. I did a long segment on it, but it was worth your time. How the weaponization of language as a political weapon are going to have us all in a fractionalized society where the meaning of words mean entirely different things. How does a society function like that? How do you walk in a supermarket and say, I'd like a bushel of apples and he gives you oranges?
Starting point is 00:33:28 Oh no, dictionary.com said these are apples. No, they're oranges. That's not true. Liberals said apples are racist. So I'm giving you apples. But you said apples are racist, but apples are redefined as oranges because orange aren't racist.
Starting point is 00:33:39 What the hell are you talking about? This is how societies disintegrate. This is the Tower of Babel phenomenon in live time. Here's the actual article from this absolute joke. Please, whoever, Matthew Brown is the guy. Please give up on the whole journalism. It's not for you. This is the most, of all the dumb fact checks,
Starting point is 00:34:02 this is right before an election, January 5th, by the way. Tell me how this isn't an in-kind donation from fake book and USA Today to Raphael Warnock, the Democrats. Please. I'd love to hear it. I'll wait. How is this not an in-kind? How?
Starting point is 00:34:17 How? An in-kind donation. We quoted the guy here from the USA Today fake book piece that they put it you're gonna have to read this if you go to my december 14th piece now which now you should share everywhere and the new one don't do it for me because it'll probably get me banned from facebook do it for everyone i don't care fact check this is said by matthew brown alleged journalist. Reverend Warnock's sermon on whiteness condemns racism, does not call for anti-white bigotry. Did I say that in my thing that he called for anti-white bigotry? Did I say that anywhere in there?
Starting point is 00:34:54 I said the statement he made about renouncing whiteness was inherently racist. Did I say anywhere he called for anti-white bigotry? Notice how he does that. He totally flips the script. Let's look at how he did it because it's kind of hilarious. Sorry, I know I went out of order. Can we get back to who he was in a second? I'm going to show you who he was at the end. I probably wrote it out of order. Here's from the USA. This is how unbelievably they try to finagle their way out of condemning whiteness being somehow condemning racism. Quote, Matthew Brown, fake journalist, USA Today. Let me call him alleged
Starting point is 00:35:35 journalist, just to be fair, because he alleges he's a journalist. It's not fake because he thinks he's a journalist. I'm going to say alleged because this is not journalism. He says whiteness defined. The concept of, quote, whiteness is an academic term that can be defined as the way that white people, their customs, culture, and beliefs operate as a standard by which all other groups are compared. This is according to the National Museum of African American History and Culture. This definition is beyond racist. I'll get to that in a second. This definition is beyond racist. I'll get to that in a second. It's not meant to be a structural attack on white people. Joe, it's not a structural attack on white people. Renounce whiteness.
Starting point is 00:36:14 But don't worry, white people, this is not an attack. That's according to the ever brilliant, and believe me, I mean that sarcastically, Andrea Gillespie, a political scientist and director at the james weldon johnson institute for race and difference at emory university apparently miss gillespie had another brilliant comment here by brilliant i mean not brilliant dictionary.com definition but he is trying to offer a very pointed critique of a white supremacist culture joe did he say did you cut that out joe why did you cut that out of the warnock clip i about I didn't. About the white supremacist culture. I didn't cut anything. Because that's not what he said in that sense.
Starting point is 00:36:46 So he says, no, Warnock's trying to offer a point of critique of white supremacist culture, which everybody renounces. There's nobody that privileges whiteness above all other types of people, she said. No, no, Warnock didn't say that. I'm condemning white supremacy, and so is everyone else. That's not what Warnock said. He said we need to renounce whiteness. She goes on to say, this genius,
Starting point is 00:37:08 the term whiteness, this is now Matthew Brown again, alleged journalist, has been in use for decades and is often connected with notions of white privilege and systemic racism. Did you read the opening National Museum of African American History
Starting point is 00:37:24 definition of whiteness? Are you picking out a few things in there that are so grotesquely racist that only a moron wouldn't see it? But that defines most people in the media. Joe, just to be clear. Joe, you're Scottish, right? You have some Scottish? Armacost? Yeah, I got some Scottish in it.
Starting point is 00:37:41 Yep. Scottish. Yep. My children are half i guess white by definition my wife is 100 colombian i'm italian or italian in order german irish french and from the united kingdom a little bit joe white people that the definition of whiteness is they're defined by their customs they're there there yeah well who's who's there are we talking about the italians because last time i checked joe um now listen i don't know how how far back your ancestors go to scotland
Starting point is 00:38:20 uh were they eating spaghetti and meatballs over cacha bread over there? No, no, no. Why not? They're racist. They're right. That's their, it's their custom. They're, they're customs. They're white people. That's their customs.
Starting point is 00:38:35 I guess. Yeah. I mean, did I grow up like my Irish friends eating shepherd's pie? I didn't even know what it was until I was like 20. What about, yeah, listen, my grandfather's name was Kramer. It doesn't get more German than that. I never ate a bratwurst in my life. I love it, I think, because I like that kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:39:00 Nothing better than processed meats. I never had one. I didn't even know how to cook a damn bratwurst shame on me everybody grew up in my house and my grandma's not drinking that italian flicker i don't even know what it is because i grew up in american culture they whatever culture, they, whatever. How racist is it to say whiteness is defined by their customs and cultures? What the hell does that mean? Italian culture is nothing like German culture, which is nothing like Irish culture, which is nothing like Scottish culture, which is nothing like Croatian culture or Yugoslavian culture or anything else.
Starting point is 00:39:48 What are you idiots talking about? That whiteness isn't racist to renounce because we're only talking about their custom. Their custom don't exist. As the great Jordan Peterson once said, and I'm summarizing his brilliance here. Has there been any tool ever used in the history of humankind more dangerous and deadly for the murder of millions than judging individuals by a collective group of characteristics they can't control? Judging an individual person by the language he speaks?
Starting point is 00:40:30 The color of her skin? The place he was born? Is there anything more dangerous and deadly than telling people they need to renounce whiteness? A characteristic which has nothing to do with their character at all, that they were born with, and they have absolutely zero control over, unlike, as Miss Paula said, Elaria Baldwin, who can switch on a dime. She has a switch there, Pam. We missed that. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:41:04 Is there anything more dangerous than that it's been the excuse for the soviets to put the zex and the gulags the chinese to put the uyghurs in death camps even here put the japanese in internment camps during world war ii what's happened here enslave millions of african blacks who were brought here as slaves, make them sit at segregated counters? Does anybody question the evils of any of those? Exterminate via gas millions of Jews in the Holocaust because of their religion?
Starting point is 00:41:42 Anybody defending that? if you are please tune out immediately and never unsubscribe from my show tomorrow but you're not that's not my audience and yet we're not supposed to condemn Warnock condemning and asking people to renounce an immutable inherent characteristic they have no control over regardless of the character of the person we're not supposed to condemn that because matthew can you put up matthew brown i know i got a second screenshot i'm sorry to go out of order but this is matthew brown the genius who has somehow turned an inherently racist statement into a statement condemning racism and it's me here's matthew brown politics now reporter report and i'm putting the
Starting point is 00:42:23 reporter in air quotes matthew brown is a politics now reporter at usa today originally from georgia matthew's a graduate of dodmouth college oh matthew's so much smarter than all of us apparently can't even read the dictionary.com leftist dictionary.com can't even read their own dictionary definition of racism that's matthew brown for you i have anything personal against matthew brown i never met this guy but i'm telling you based on matthew brown's own writing that matthew brown is an idiot and i'll tell you what i think i'm going to share that facebook post now again today call up my guy later for a third time. Fakebook wants to ban us. You go right ahead. I'll make
Starting point is 00:43:07 a bigger deal out of this than you know. And I know Fakebook. I know what they're thinking. I had a guy, I didn't tell you this story. I won't say his name, but he's an employee of Facebook. I'm pretty sure he's telling the truth based on the inside information. He sent me an email. He said, Fakebook doesn't care if all the conservatives leave. They're growing around the world. I'm not sure, buddy. i know you still listen to my show i liked your email it was very informative he was giving me all kinds of data and numbers and stuff you sure about that number one i have about a million listeners to a show all platforms included sometimes more if even 10 of those left and then 10 of influencers on fake book like uh mark levin and others who's already leaving and others left too and then you have a
Starting point is 00:43:56 bunch of kids right now the generation that hates fake book oh you think they google it young people are leaving a series don't google it i'm sorry we say that by instinct my fault leave that in search engine any other go to duck duck go put in young people leaving facebook you think i'm making it up you think fake book doesn't have a problem on its hands what's that yeah kids aren't even on it they think it's's a joke. You sure fake book you want to, and the reason I mentioned the money thing, it's not to say, hey, look at me. The reason I mentioned the money thing is you're going to lose a million dollar account
Starting point is 00:44:32 because you decided to give a ridiculous election donation to a Democrat from an alleged journalist who doesn't even understand the definition of racism. You sure you want to go down that path? I will fight that to the end. Let me show you one more quote from this ridiculous fact check, context, whatever the hell it was, from the USA Today piece. USA Today, sometimes, by the way, accidentally does real journalism. I have a story to get to today.
Starting point is 00:45:01 It's important. But this is also this woman, woman gillespie who's a real genius on this stuff and i use that term lightly she says what i suspect reverend warnock what she suspects joe so keep in mind this is wait keep this up because it's important i have to say that sometimes because paula gets she's got the trigger finger there so when joe and i comment and paula on what we suspect warnock said based on a common sense definition of racism joe that's no good but what miss gillespie says is what really matters because she knows more about reverend warnock apparently than we do quote gillespie andrea gillespie what
Starting point is 00:45:40 i suspect reverend warnock was trying to speak is to how Donald Trump as a candidate appealed to whiteness. He did. Joe, do you recall that Joe's Donald Trump speech? I appeal to whiteness for you. I don't recall that. Of course, he's just making that up. The threat of status loss embodied by having a woman run against him in an increasingly diverse society. Interesting because Donald Trump never said that. So keep in mind, there is no fact check in the fact check. There should be a line there, fact check, Donald Trump did not say this, but there's none because it's USA Today
Starting point is 00:46:11 and alleged journalist Matthew Brown. It goes on, regardless of the utility of whiteness as a concept, it does not refer to specific people who may identify or be seen as white. Warnock's comments were not advocating anti-white bias. Ladies and gentlemen, what the hell does that even mean? He's telling you to renounce as a country whiteness
Starting point is 00:46:36 while this dope at USA Today is saying that's not condemning white people. Then what is it condemning? I wrote white aliens. What else is it condemning? The color white in a Crayola box? Do you realize how stupid you have to be? This kid went, Dartmouth, rescind this guy's degree. Can he not read? Imagine, reverse this, because liberals can't think straight, because when everything's about Donald Trump, liberals go blank because they're dumb. Can you imagine for a moment, Joe?
Starting point is 00:47:11 At a Jim Crow counter with a sign up. Here's the colored water fountain. Here's the colored counter suggesting this is not an attack on people who are black with elevated melanin levels in their skin because it's just an attack on colored people and colored people air quotes doesn't mean that you would be thank the lord thrown out of polite society tomorrow because everyone would look at you like, what are you, an idiot? But when the terms are flipped and it's about whiteness, it's A-OK. It's not an attack on white people. It's just an attack on people who are white
Starting point is 00:47:54 who have whiteness. Ah, this is Matthew Brown, Dartmouth College. Isabel, pull Dartmouth right away off your college application. My daughter's out there. They're home from school this week. Right away. I Dartmouth right away off your college application. My daughter's out there. They're home from school this week. Right away. I told her to apply to all these.
Starting point is 00:48:09 Don't. Don't apply there. Serious. Dartmouth's out. Paula, Dartmouth, off the list. My daughter's very smart. Off the list. All right, moving on.
Starting point is 00:48:20 I got some other stuff to cover. So show me, it's a little bit long today. Sorry. But one, rest in peace, Congressman-elect Luke Letlow. I don't know if you heard this story, but he was just elected to Congress. What a horrible story. 41 years old.
Starting point is 00:48:37 Just a really awful story. Came down with COVID. Apparently he was getting a little better, broke bad. Inflamm inflammation kicked in, was sent to intensive care. I believe he's from Louisiana. So rest peacefully with the Lord. My prayers sincerely, me and my family too are with your family. God rest your soul. 41. Goes to show you this virus is very unpredictable. And let me just say, not to make this a negative downer segment, but to the liberals and leftists who are going after this guy because he objected to lockdowns trying to save business,
Starting point is 00:49:13 may God save you one day. I'm just going to leave that. I'm not kidding. I'm not using the Lord's name. May God save you and your wretched souls one day. Politicizing a man's death at 41 with two kids and a wife just disgusting okay moving on because that's gonna get ugly and i don't want it to all right let's lighten it up a little bit i got more on georgia and some other stuff i'm gonna have to get through some of this pretty quick but um i on a lighter note i i have to do an update on this Hilaria Baldwin story and not because I want to pile on.
Starting point is 00:49:50 I don't do pylons. You know, I don't do these, but it's just becoming epidemic now where people are faking who they are and doing it in a reason, in a way that is so easily discoverable, you start to wonder if these are sane, rational people. Elizabeth Warren pretending to be an Indian, Rachel Dolezal pretending to be black, Jessica Krug, I don't know what she was pretending to be, Spanish or something. These examples are just everywhere and you wonder why. Well, as I said yesterday, please again, listen to yesterday's show. We put a lot of work into it. I talk about how it's faking your status to become a minority when you're not gives you status because in victim culture, if you're a minority, you have victim status and that's
Starting point is 00:50:37 exalted by leftists. But secondly, it immunizes you from attacks because leftists believe you can't be a racist or say racist things like Raphael Warnock did if you are black or Hispanic believe you can't be a racist or say racist things like Raphael Warnock did if you are black or Hispanic because you don't have power the guy's running for senate so that's nonsense too so what better way I mean as I said yesterday I'm actually stunned more people don't fake being Spanish black Asian or whatever insulated from attacks and you get status in society with leftists? Who's better than you? Let's just replay this Hilaria Baldwin video here. Here is Hilaria Baldwin, whose real name is Hillary Wayland Thomas from Cambridge, Massachusetts, who admits now she
Starting point is 00:51:21 is a, quote, white girl. Her words, not mine. And apparently, you know, why would she not want to be a white girl? If you listen to Raphael Warnock, you know, who she probably, you know, likes suggesting to her that whiteness should be renounced, why would you not want to pretend to be something else? But here's Hilaria Baldwin
Starting point is 00:51:34 on a cooking segment on a major national show, pretending to not know how to say in the word English. Keep in mind, she grew up in Cambridge, Massachusetts, speaking English. How to say the word,
Starting point is 00:51:43 not supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. She apparently forgot how to say the word because she's pretending to be a Spanish speaker here. Cucumber. You know, very tough word, Joe. Nobody knows what a cucumber, gosh, a cucumber. You know, I'm talking about some scientific term here, right? We're not talking about pediatric autoimmune neurodegenerative orders associated with strep. That's a real thing, by the way, pandas.
Starting point is 00:52:05 Check this out. Paul had to correct me. That's a real thing, by the way. Pandas. Check this out. Here's, Paula had to correct me. It's not Hilaria Baldwin. It's, how do you say it again? Hilaria. Paula is actually a native Spanish. Hilaria. Silent H.
Starting point is 00:52:16 Hilaria Baldwin. Check this out. Very few ingredients. We have tomatoes. We have, how do you say it again? Cucumber. Cucumbers. We have red. How you, do you say cucumber cucumbers we have um red how you how you say how you say
Starting point is 00:52:29 i explained why she said it that way yesterday on the show thank you uh audience archivist judy for your great email about that she speaks two languages that is really really nasty to do when people learn another language they translate translate directly. And if you're asking someone in the Spanish language how to say something in English, you say, ¿Cómo se dice? So she's translating it directly. ¿Cómo se dice? is literally how you say. Of course, she knows in English, that's not how you say, how you say, you say, how do you say? But she's basically making fun of Spanish speakers by doing that, pretending to be Spanish. She'll get a pass. By the way, how you say busted in English? Busted? Is there a,
Starting point is 00:53:19 how you say, how you say busted? Busted. Is there a busted in Spanish? Here's the latest update in the Hilaria Baldwin scandal, which ties right into this warning. It's all about the same thing. Why would she not want to pretend she wasn't white? Warnock told her whiteness should be renounced. Why not? In fairness, Hilaria Baldwin beat him to the punch,
Starting point is 00:53:43 was doing this way before his speech. Here's the Daily Mail. This will be in the show notes today, bongino.com slash newsletter. Another update in the Hilaria Baldwin scandal. We always laugh. The Daily Mail headlines. You never need to screenshot it. The headline's like the longest.
Starting point is 00:53:57 It says the whole piece. Don't even bother. Just read the headline. Exclusive. Inside Hilaria and Alec Baldwin's New York City wedding, where instead of yes to their vows they said see they were they waved joe flamenco fans and exchanged cartier rings inscribed in spanish before she told vanity fair that her family this, this is Ilaria, said her family, they're all white from Massachusetts. She said her family, she told Vanity Fair,
Starting point is 00:54:29 couldn't pronounce her new surname. Jeez. It couldn't pronounce. The woman's father and mother are, I think, doctors and PhDs or something from Cambridge, Massachusetts. She went to a $64,000 a year elite private school in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and her mother and father can't pronounce Baldwin. His last name wasn't like Bongio Nino Noni and Orno, like my name gets pronounced every day. Fairly
Starting point is 00:55:09 enough by people who speak English because they say it directly, Bongino. It's not Bongino, it's Bongino. The Italians pronounce their G's like J's. Don't ask me why. I don't know. They just do it. Bonjour, whatever. I don't know. That's French, of course. Buongiorno in Italian. I don't know. I'm not a linguist. I'm not like the character in Star Trek. She's a linguist. You're a linguist. Remember that scene in the book? That's not me. I'm just saying her doctor, dad, and mom with advanced level intellects who are white from Cambridge, Massachusetts, I'm reasonably confident could pronounce Baldwin. If her mom and dad were Spanish, they're not. I'm also pretty sure they can pronounce Baldwin. How else would you pronounce it? Baldwin? Baldwin. Is there an accent I'm
Starting point is 00:56:09 missing? Baldwin. Am I missing something? How do you pronounce Baldwin any other way? What kind of stupid, what kind of idiots do you think people are? What kind of, let me, can I ask you this? Is this not an insult to people who've learned the English language from any foreign country that they can't pronounce Baldwin? What the, why am I missing something? My mother-in-law has no problem. She's an actual native Spanish speaker
Starting point is 00:56:45 who learned English late. She calls me Danny Bongino. Not Danny Bongino, Danny Bongiore. She very simply has my, it's not hard. Even English speakers screw up my name. Oh. What universe are we living in? All right, two more quick ones. On a on a lighter before i get back to georgia i'm gonna leave you on a series usually you're gonna leave it on a lighter note today i
Starting point is 00:57:12 gotta leave you on a serious note because it's important but just quickly what the hell is it had to uh caleb hall on i pulled this off of social media what the heck is chuck schumer saying yesterday on the house floor about the NDAA and the stimulus vote? This is about 29 seconds. If you could translate this in, in the English language, the actual English language, not a Larry Abalman English,
Starting point is 00:57:32 I'd be happy to hear what is this guy saying? Check this out. We're about to get the answers to these questions. So now, Mr. Madam, Madam president, I ask consent
Starting point is 00:57:45 to set the NDAA no sorry Madam President where am I would the Senator modify his request to include a unanimous request
Starting point is 00:58:01 to include unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the immediate consideration. What are you talking about? Can these guys ever not read off a paper and just say what they think? I saw that. I'm like, typical. Seriously. All right. I know I said I get to the negative interest rate
Starting point is 00:58:27 story. I got that. And I've got a really, really cool set of, I don't do a lot of national security stories on here. I should, but I don't. Tomorrow, I will get to this negative interest rate story and the digital currency in China. It's important. Ladies and gentlemen, they want that here. Fully digital currency, meaning no cash. Majorly bad idea. I'm talking. Ladies and gentlemen, they want that here. Fully digital currency, meaning no cash. Majorly bad idea. I'm talking about fiat currency, not Bitcoin. I love Bitcoin. Great idea. Talking about a government-sponsored digital currency. I cannot tell you enough how bad of an idea this is. I'm going to give you a horror story from the Wall Street Journal about what's happening in China. I'm just looking at page two here. Plus, I can't
Starting point is 00:59:02 forget Mimi Tsong today. This is important. Don't let me forget this, Paula. This is huge. And two critical national security stories for tomorrow. One about this new weapon the Air Force invented. If you want to check out the story, it's on BonginoReport.com. It'll be in our show notes today, too.
Starting point is 00:59:21 And also what happened in Nashville. That should be a big wake-up call. But I got to cover that tomorrow. It's going to take some time and I don't want to, you know, leave you hanging on that, leave out important details. But I do have to get to this story because it's critical, especially with the election going on. That's why I'm picking this rather than the other two right now. It's Mimi's song. Don't miss Mimi's song in a minute. Politico story. Check out this headline. Why am I putting up a Politico story? And I'm not putting this in the show notes because I'm not giving them the clicks because the headline is ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:59:48 It's a Politico story about an abomination of a ruling in Georgia about the election that is so laughable that if the Politico headline was honest, you wouldn't even have to read the article. It'd be like Daily Mail. You'd be done. Look at the headline. So Politico. So so politico we having an issue here with yeah politicoski you're not having to be going on all right there's me he's on politicos do you move me over a little bit to the left i can see the politico there hey i'm not we love my wife come on we get a mess around don't cut that out sometimes they cut it out it's not our fault i go out of order it's my fault i have an order for the show and i screw everything up listen to this headline judge blocks voter purge voter purge in two georgia counties judge leslie abrams gardner the sister of stacy abrams in georgia rejected a call for her to recuse judge blocks a voter purge effort you read that story
Starting point is 01:00:44 by political you'd be like oh my gosh those dastardly republicans are trying to take judge blocks a voter purge effort. You read that story by Politico, you'd be like, oh my gosh, those dastardly Republicans are trying to take legitimate voters off the ballot again, Joe. Oh man, voter suppression everywhere. What's the real story? Well, let's look at how they frame it
Starting point is 01:00:58 inside the Politico piece. I'm a little worried there. Quote, Politico. Listen to how they frame this this suit brought by Majority Forward represented by the National Democratic Party attorney Mark Elias oh Mark Elias
Starting point is 01:01:12 the same guy who hired Fusion GPS you know the whole spy gate thing that's weird Joe right followed an effort to challenge the lengthy roster of voters simply because listen to this how they frame this simply because their registrations
Starting point is 01:01:23 appeared to match postal service change of address records, simply, you moved. It goes on. Voting officials in the two counties agreed to remove the voters. Shocker, Joe, they moved. Despite warnings from Democrats that such postal data,
Starting point is 01:01:39 this is hilarious, is not a reliable or conclusive indicator that a voter has given up their local residence. After Gardner's ruling, Elias, you know, the Fusion GPS guy, hailed the decision as a blow to GOP voter suppression. So just to be clear, you go to the post office because you're moving. So just to be clear, you go to the post office because you're moving. You sign a voter change of address form to have your mail forwarded, meaning you don't live there anymore.
Starting point is 01:02:18 Those people then should be removed. And by the way, you can still file a provisional ballot because sometimes it does happen. Again, I'll give you both sides. Unlike the media, Politico will never explain this to to you you can still file a provisional ballot sometimes joe i got friends they sell homes then they move down the block they change their mind they don't want to leave some sell they don't want to sell anymore it happens all the time you can file a provisional ballot on disputes to be crystal clear there's no voter suppression You can file a provisional ballot on disputes to be crystal clear.
Starting point is 01:02:44 There's no voter suppression. But probably 95% plus, and I'm probably being generous, of people who file a post office change of address to move are doing it. Get ready for it, Joe. Because they moved. Wow. Take your nitroglycerin pills. I know that's stunning. I don't want an unnecessary rise in blood pressure, but that's probably a good reason to ask that their voter rolls be scrubbed of people who can't vote in the state. Factoid number one, which they casually gloss over there.
Starting point is 01:03:22 The case was heard by Stacey Abrams, youams, the self-anointed governor of Georgia, who's not the governor of Georgia. She was the Democrat candidate who was on the news every day talking about how evil the GOP is and trying to suppress votes. The case was heard by her sister. You think that might be grounds for recusal? I don't know. Only in a sane universe. By the way, that was a GOP judge who was the brother of Donald Trump here in this case. Of course, these hacks and lunatics in the liberal media would lose their minds, but these aren't principled people. They're losers. That's why
Starting point is 01:03:54 they're journalists. Didn't recuse herself. Case was brought by Mark Elias and his group. You know Mark Elias, the Fusion GPS guy. And Stacey Abrams' sister, whose sister is literally on TV lying about GOP voter suppression, rules on the case.
Starting point is 01:04:17 And they rule, yes, Mark Elias is right, that people saying they're moving is not a reliable indicator of people saying they're moving. That people saying they're moving is not a reliable indicator of people saying they're moving. Matt, if you're watching my show today, Matt runs Bongino Report, which is our drudge alternative. Thank you for the explosive growth in the site, by the way. Can you please make that a headline? Judge rules people saying they're moving is not evidence of people saying they're moving.
Starting point is 01:04:46 Can you please put that on there if you're listening to the show today? Maybe we should headline that. Unbelievable. Okay. So, you know, I love my daughter, Amelia. She's asked me for a favor. I hope you'll indulge me for a second. And this may be, I am not a good singer, folks. I was in a choir once at St. Pancras, which has a world-renowned choir.
Starting point is 01:05:03 But she's eight, and she wrote a song. Unfortunately, she didn't give me the chords. I'm not going to sing the whole thing. Maybe producer Joe would be better to record a jingle here. He is an actual musician. But she's never asked me for a favor. She wanted me to sing her song. So out of love for my daughter, I'll do that. So here it goes. It's called My Favorite Things things i'll just read the first opening couple sentences here sing them i love my father i love my home i love my puppy oh whoa whoa that's actually in there oh i didn't i didn't i'm not reading it the right oh there's more there are a lot more things that i like if you want to hear them she spelled here wrong that they are art books and school then is i don't know you did not maybe because it's my show you did not make an issue

The mamacita is very, I just said mamacita. Is that racist? The mamacita is very upset here. Can we say, I'm declaring myself Spanish. She's saying she's very upset I just said Mamacita. Is that racist? The Mamacita is very upset here. Can we say, I mean, I'm declaring myself Spanish. Mamacita, she's saying she's very upset.
Starting point is 01:06:29 She did not make it. Maybe because it's my show. You're going to have to write a new song from the, I can't say anymore. So thank you. I'm sorry I had to subject you to that, but I did promise my daughter to deal with a lot for the show.
