Bongino Weekend Report - Midterms Edition - Week of 11/02/26

All America, all the time, on the side of freedom and liberty, your voice of hope and truth is here. The Bongino Report PM with Dan Bongino. So I'll say this multiple times today throughout the show that there's not going to be any copium here or any false hope or pig lipstick or whatever we'd like to call it about the election results that happened last night. There isn't. The election results last night, if you are a conservative, Republican, any kind of Republican, a MAGA Republican or whatever, were awful. They were not bad. They were awful. There was some glimmer of hope on ballot measures. We're going to get into all of this today. But I would be doing you an enormous disservice out there telling you like, oh, don't worry about it. Everything's going to be fine. Now, I think there are things we can do going forward, including a battle plan going forward. I'm going to propose to you today that I think would solidify us for the next election, which is just in two years. And we can't just sit and give it up. Ah, forget it. We're not doing that. Like, that's not my thing. I don't give up. I'm living to fight another day. And so are you. I know you are. But I will put what happened last night in perspective and context because it matters. Because I'm going to urge you frequently today to watch the political ecosystem right now for the folks out there who are not critiquing or analyzing. That's not only. Fair, but welcome. When you lose an election, it doesn't do you any good. I just told you that to sit back and go, hey, you know, producer Jim, everything was great last night. Nothing to fix, nothing to change. Analysis and critical thinking is important moving forward. However, there is a difference between that and celebrating the destruction of the country that happened last night. Once you see the difference, I promise you will never look back. I've been warning you about some of these figures for a long time, and now you're seeing it today. But folks, understandably, I've been in the business about 15 years. I remember election night 2012 when Obama won reelection. We'll get into that in a little bit. I was on the ballot that night myself in the state of Maryland for the United States Senate race. That night was the worst political night of my life. It was. The second worst was when Obama won the first time against McCain. I'd rank this probably third or fourth, which is bad because both parties have taken a bath. Traditionally, I'm 51 years old. I'm not young. Bad things have happened. You know, Bill Clinton winning is horrendous. I mean, it was just a disaster. We had Hillary care. I mean, I'm old enough to remember that. But fair enough. You may say, well, you've only been in the business 15 years. You're 51. I may be a little older than you. And I'm looking for another opinion on the matter for someone who's been in the business a little longer. I said, OK, I've got one for you, folks. The greatest of all time when it came to kind of a godfather of the conservative cause was Rush Limbaugh. No, no serious person disputes that there's no wing of the Republican Party that would disagree with that statement that not only was he basically the founder of conservative talk radio, he was the 30 plus year MVP of a game he created. There's never going to be another ever towards the end when we lost Rush tragically and way too fast. I told the story often about, you know, we, we inherited some of the stations he was on. I never say take over for us because nobody takes over for Rush, but we were on 12 to three. We're now on, you know, three to six and sometimes later with you all. I used to say all the time, there's no taking this man's place. There isn't. All I can do is do the best work I can do. And I hope you like it. I can't replace him. But towards the end, I'll never forget listening to the show. I don't know what I was doing. I was like shaving or something like that. It was his last show and nobody knew it was his last show. And I remember listening to him sign off as if he knew, but no one else did. And one of my, one of my big regrets is that I just didn't like put the razor down and just listen better to hear Rush's last moments on the radio with us. But this was Rush towards the end. If anybody had earned the right after 30 years of ups and downs in the Republican Party and elections, if anyone had earned the right, to say, I'm done, hate these people, I'm moving on, screw it, going to collect my check and move on. It was Rush. Producer Jim pulled this up. And this is a little over a minute of Rush Limbaugh at the end of, close to the end of his life. When things weren't going great for the Republican Party and the movement, you think Rush was ready to give up? Even if you don't trust me, I hope you trust him. Take a listen to this. I think whatever, whatever form it takes, we will continue to fight for and to defend and to triumph. I know the odds are, I mean, they're stiff and they're steep. The American left is made up of a lot of people that hate this country. Hate is a very, very destructive frame of mind. It's a destructive characteristic. And eventually, it results in implosion. You cannot survive on hatred. You cannot sustain a movement based on it. We just need to be patient while being vigilant and continuing to fight for what we believe in, knowing full well that we can prevail. And while we may not have the golden goose idea right now for how to do it, there are countless people thinking about it, strategizing. We're not alone. You're not alone. You're not a singular individual all by yourself out there trying to fight these people by yourself. There are 74 million plus and growing. Folks, those are wise words from a wise man who had seen the vicissitudes, the ups and downs, the peaks and valleys of politics. Politics is a rough and tumble business. No, no, it is a rough and tumble business. Unfortunately for the Democrats, many of whom are talking about abortion, which is violence, and to many of them recommending street violence. One of them, I'll play a clip at the end of the show, a mainstream left-wing podcaster somehow implying Elon Musk should be treated like they treated spies and traitors to the United States. It's the most bizarre thing I've ever seen. Folks, I just want you to be prepared going forward that there is no giving up option. Rushed through this over and over. Folks, I've only been in this business, again, I was a candidate for the first time in the 2011-2012 election cycle. It was the first time I ran for office. I walked away from a position I loved in the Secret Service. It didn't work out. But that election night, when Mitt Romney lost, I got to tell you, man, I could not believe it. I couldn't believe a president as awful as first-term Barack Obama not only won the first time, but reelected and reelected candidly in a rout. That race was called by 1130. I had to give a speech that night. I lost the U.S. Senate race in Maryland to Ben Cardin. And it was like 1130 at night. I'll tell you more about it a little bit later, but that was the single worst political night of my life. And I'm going to tell you something, folks, I gave that speech with a smile on because the 500 plus people there who had volunteered for my campaign, who were at this watch party that night, they deserve some leadership too. Folks, we got a problem because a lot of the people who voted for these DSA and blue candidates around the country voted under the impression that the Democrats were going to fix gas prices and affordability. Ladies and gentlemen, that is not the plan. Jim is in the background shaking his head, like almost comically laughing at people who fell for this scam. I posted it this morning. I know you did. I know you did. I saw that. Jim is from Texas, horrified at the results. Watch what's going to happen to your great state. Now that basically every state leadership position has been wiped out to a bunch of radical far left Democrats. But again, even if you voted for these Democrats thinking they were going to be a fix on the inflation diesel front and you ignored the successes at the border on the crime rate, the GDP growth, the economy moving again, stock market gains, even if you median household income up, even if you ignored all that, folks, this is not what they were talking about last night after some of their election victories. They were in no way, in no way, mentioning egg prices, diesel, except for a few candidates. Most of the Democrats who won last night were talking about absolutely insane things. Here is Tallarico, who is going to be your incoming United States Senator in the state of Texas. Jim can't believe it. I mean, we here in the great state of Florida, we did not have a great night, but we had a better night than most. We lost some congressional seats too, but we won on a property tax initiative, the top of the ticket ticket, the attorney general to the CFO, to the governor, to all of them. I mean, the Senator Ashley Moody, my Congressman won. Florida. have managed to hold off a lot of the horde but if you in texas voted for this talarico because he speaks nice or i don't know i'm not trying to be condescending or a jerk about it i'm just genuinely asking i'm not talking about radicals and commies and islamo radicals they voted for talarico because he's a nut like them i'm talking about if you were an on the fence moderate republican or moderate democrat who think this that this guy is to be trusted i want you to listen to talarico himself on fox news this morning with dana perino and bill hemmer when he's asked directly about packing the supreme court defunding the police and if democrats can be trusted including him and his answer is no what do you mean no like no answer no his answer was no like you can't trust me either no it wasn't okay listen to yourself check this out what about the dsa candidates who won who want to do things like defund the police they want to end the filibuster they want to add two states they want to pack the supreme court would would you continue to disavow all of that now that you've won well i don't think you should listen to anything a politician says you shouldn't trust anything including you a politician says yeah what you should do is look at my record uh that is what you can trust because actions in my view speak a lot louder than words folks the best part about and by best i mean worst part about playing what we call sots in the business sound on tape of crazy democrats talk is you only have to play sots of crazy democrats talking i don't need to add anything i will i will because i warned a lot of people not to trust these folks there is politics gets embedded in emotion and it just pollutes everything well he speaks nice i like his haircut or whatever it may be i won his haircut was terrible too but whatever i shouldn't talk i got like no hair so what am i but it doesn't matter he's about to destroy the state of texas along with a radical far left governor who's going to destroy or attempt to destroy every single thing you built they lost supreme court seats there too so what's the good news the good news is we've been here before and we've dusted off and we've come back and we won that never happened no it did i lived through 2020 i lived through the obama mccain race many years ago i lived through the obama mccain race many of you did too i lived through obama romney i lived through bill clinton i lived through hillary care that's how i found rush limbaugh i lived through 9-11 i've been through all of it like many of you we have always dusted off and lived to fight another day because you have no other choice but that's not why you do it you do it because this country's a promise a promise made to you by your parents and grandparents and great-grandparents who handed down to you the most prosperous powerful country in the history of sentient beings anywhere in the cosmos we know or don't know about we're not giving it up because james talarico thinks there's 67 genders and we sure as hell ain't giving it up to these lunatics either this is this is insane this is again after a couple of election night victories here's some democrats in a room screaming about it's an a word jim affordability right no it's not affordability what's the word they're screaming about oh no no no you i think you got that wrong jim says it's it's abortion i thought this was about affordability i thought this was about affordability celebrate i mean again celebrating this i am adamantly pro-life but even if you are pro-abortion it's nothing to celebrate killing a baby except if you're a democrat on election night telling everyone you were running on egg prices check this out abortion is so bad baby again folks the best evidence against the blue wave are the blue candidates that won last night i've added commentary but they speak for themselves i've got more coming up on the show from al-sayed peggy flanagan in minnesota won the senate race i'm not only going after ice i mean one of the most vicious attacks on defunding ice i've ever heard this is after she won you think they're going to moderate start focusing on egg and diesel prices good luck but folks we've been here before there's no good news but the good news is we'll live to fight another day because we always have and we always will more

i'm going to do a pre-alcohol drink tonight and i will reiterate again that the modern media and well the old media too but the modern media is the time we're living in now is one big giant psychological operation it is it's a psyop i mean there are people out there in the listening audience today i'll get to this group of voters i'm talking about in a minute but there are people out there in the listening audience today that honestly believe the economy now is going to be a problem and they're going to be a problem and they're going to be a problem somehow worse than it was under joe biden there is zero metrics to indicate any of that is even remotely true but they believe it it's really hard evidence and voted as such of a psychological manipulation operation this goes back though it's not new there are people out there who believe because they've been told by people in the media and others that for instance police officers are out there by the thousands mowing down unarmed black men and minorities in the streets that's just not true there are clearly instances we've seen videos of them and coverage of them of unnecessary and illegal sometimes and sometimes immoral as well sometimes all three uses of force by law enforcement it is nowhere near the number the american liberal believes it is it's a psychological operation to get you to hate the police to defund that's it that's it simple as that i say this about this small group of people i i really i'm being candid here i sympathize with because there's a crop of voters out there that's it's small percentage wise but not insignificant raw numbers that voted in texas and elsewhere because they really believe that the incoming whatever it may be a communist governor of texas there's a communist governor in texas uh yes yeah you're gonna be in a in just a just over a month there's a group of people out there who think they voted for a foreign and change but they don't really understand what that change is i'm not telling you you're stupid i'm not down but that's not what i'm saying i'm saying you've been told things by a crop of media people who are in love with a pernicious deadly ideology called socialism that led you to believe things you may have voted on that aren't true the democrats ladies and gentlemen i'm not saying gentlemen i promise you the democrats coming into office in texas coming into office in california all around the country even got some you know congressmen coming into office in florida where i live the people coming into office don't give a damn a hoot drop an f-bomb in there if you need to about affordability that what they care about and that they want to make it worse i've got some audio coming up later in the show i have a dsa member democrat socialist of america and in leadership who's on martha mccallum here yesterday and she's like yeah that cost of medicare government-run health care for all of 47 trillion dollars basically doubling our national budget over 10 years and deficits she's like yeah that's made up i mean it's like other kids did it remember the old beavis and butter they mr anderson to catch them that was other kids that's their argument they don't care about any of this stuff okay you claim to have the receipts your show is based on evidence facts and data incoming incoming here is a this guy's going to be a chairman of a committee a very powerful committee in congress his name is robert garcia all this lunatic has been tweeting about for the last two days from the election abomination the other day to now again this guy's a far left democrat very this is not a fringe guy up on capitol hill he is a in a leadership position all he has been tweeting about and talking about is how they cannot wait to get up there and address affordability what was that mike now mike mike's cutting me off there no it's not about it for mike it's not correct jim's giving me like the you know the sign like cut on the set like the across the throat thing with the fingers pointed at you what it's not about that would be a good time for tiffany that would be a good thing that would be a good time for tiffany no he's not talking about affordability here's a presser this guy gave the other day so if you voted again for the democrats thinking oh this is great for my diesel bill great for my farm good luck here's what you're gonna get endless hearings lawyer up lawyer at least be lawyer i love this fake tough guy act lawyer up nobody's scared of you not me not anyone else in the trump administration do what you gotta do man i knew when i swore in for that fbi spot i knew i was gonna go through 10 years of your garbage bring it man and nobody's afraid of you here's robert garcia on what they're gonna focus like a laser on their words on day one check this out we're gonna be focused like a laser on the trump family and ensuring that people know that their corruption and grift is hurting the american public they are stealing your money and they're stealing your hard-earned labor giving it to themselves and their billionaire donors and friends while you and your family are having a hard time filling the gas tank or paying the mortgage bill that's our first major investigation and that investigation starts on day one of a new house majority now i'd like you to notice in that soundbite sound on tape whatever you'd like to call it in the biz that there is no mention whatsoever of diesel prices gas prices affordability a growing economy union wages prevailing wages anything like that they want to focus on the trump family because they've never done that before they have never it's not like the trump family has a new house majority they have never done that before they have never done that been harassed for the last 10 years since Donald Trump came down the escalator at Trump Tower. And it was a very effective strategy. I hope you sense the dripping sarcasm. As people voted them out of office in droves in 2024, I was on Will Kane's show yesterday on Fox and he said, Dan, you think they're going to do this again, knowing how it's so badly backfired on them in the past, these endless investigations and hoaxes and fake scandals against the Trump team? I said, well, you can't explain this to a bunch of children. That's what the Socialist Democrat Party is now, because that's what they are. They're socialists and they're children. And it's really kind of an insult to children. It's like they bang their head against the desk knowing it hurts. The banging the head was the endless weaponization of government, the attacks on Trump through the fake scandals. And what happened? It hurt. They got smoked in the presidential election. They lost the House and the Senate. So now they say, oh, well, we're going to come back. We're going to come back with a different message, affordability. But then they have this thing in the in the financial fraud business called the rug poll. The rug poll is when they like people set you up for a big fall. This is what the Democrats did to you. They rug polled you because now they won the election. No doubt. No lipstick on that pig, folks. We're not doing pig lipstick here. But now that they've won, the rug has been pulled and they're switching the argument now to we don't give a damn about affordability or any of that. We really just want to do what we did over the last 10 years. Which is wasting congressional Capitol Hill, congressional and Senate side valuable time on endless stupid hearings. Nobody's surprised. Nobody's scared. It's concerning only in the lawyer up. I've already got law. You think I don't think about this stuff? We think we're stupid like you guys. Everybody's already got a lawyer because we know we're going to have to deal with you idiots. I know about affordability. It's nothing to do with affordability. I'm this is why I opened up the show and said what I said. I'm being genuine. I really feel bad for you if you were a roughneck, a coal miner. And, you know, you don't have time to get knee deep in white papers. You're out there working for a living, busting your ass. And thank you for doing that, feeding your family. But if you voted for Democrats and Democrat socialists, especially the ones that are about to take over the state of Texas, and you think they cared about any of the stuff they told you about, I'm sorry, you got rug pulled. Here is the soon to be majority leader of the Texas House because the Texas, they retain the Senate, right? But I think the Texas Senate still read, thankfully. But the Texas House, the Texas House, I can't believe I'm saying these words, has now switched to blue. That carbon dioxide leaving my body and saying those words, it's really, I can't believe I'm saying this. This is the incoming majority leader in freaking Texas. Long horns. Guns. God. Liberty. Like the beacon of freedom for planet Earth, not just the country, is Texas. They didn't even say it like that. You ask people in Florida where they're from, they're like, yeah, Martin County, whatever. Palm City, whatever. You know, you ask people from Texas, you know what they say? Texas. And they say it with a freaking attitude. Cowboy boots, cowboy hats. That's badass. I come from New York City. I can't pull off a cowboy hat. I look for that. You'd laugh at me. I'd laugh at myself. That's a badass look. And you got this guy, Gene Wu, coming in to be the most powerful house of the Texas House member. Here's Gene Wu in Texas. Here he is talking about how basically DEI is back. It's in Texas. I can't believe this, man. And talking about something Jim, Mike, and I have addressed on this show for, for what, five years we've been doing? I don't even know. It's been a long time. That Democrats put you in boxes they determine you to be and not you determine yourself. Democrats only talk about people in the collective. In other words, how you think of yourself is irrelevant. So what Democrats do is they put you in a box. Black voters, Hispanic voters, union, divorced, stay at home moms. And they talk to you in a way where it becomes your thing, that you're a black voter, not that you're an American citizen, but that you're black or Hispanic first. As if your values are different than someone who's white or Asian. They're not. The reason they do this and they put you in this box is because they want you to believe the evil conservatives and Republicans are in fact coming after you as the oppressors. I've said this. If you listen to my show, you know it. I've said this for 10 years, we've been on the air. Here is Gene Wu, incoming lunatic, soon to be majority leader of the Texas House, telling you the exact same thing, that basically we're going to think of you like a box we put you in. And we're going to do this DEI oppressor stuff to get you to not think about yourself, but think about government first. Check this out. And it's not just Latinos. It's not just Asians. It's not just African-Americans. It's everybody, right? We, our country and the forces that be, the powers that be, have spent tremendous time, effort, and money to make sure, that those groups are never united, that they always see each other as enemies, as competitors, without ever realizing that they share one thing in common, that their oppressors all are the same, right? The oppression comes from one place. And I always tell people the day the Latino, African-American, Asian, and other communities realize that they are, that they share the same oppressor, is the day we start winning. Because we are the majority in this country now. We are, we have the ability to take over this country and to do what is needed for everyone and to make things fair. I warned you. I warned you before the election. I hope you took it to heart. Some did not. But I'll say what I said as I opened up the segment. My genuine, candid sympathies are with you. Not if you were a socialist, you voted for this stuff. But if you're in that small group of Democrats and Independents, that voted Democrat for Gene Wu and others, and Robert Garcia, and you really thought they were going to fix your job, the economy, or any of that, I'm sorry, but you got rug pulled. We'll be right back. i gotta tell you man i needed some sleep last night helix been with us a long time looking for a new mattress i realized mine was way past its prime i upgraded to a helix mattress

some evidence that there is an avenue out that will give you hope this is not a highway with no exits we have exits every two years called elections we've got one less than two years away now for the presidency the entire house of representatives again a bunch of state elections coming up it's less than two years away so hope hope about what what do you mean hope folks revolutions happen fast they happen so fast i'm gonna show you coming up in the show many of you out there like okay what are you talking about do you remember the barack obama victory the first victory he had against john mccain where the republicans could not have been more depressed i said it but i'll say it before i'll say it again they're one of the worst political nights of my life if not the worst folks it was only 30 days later that something happened and the revolution already began but i want to hit on right here another topic so i'm going to talk about political revolutions how quickly they happen the snap of a finger for anyone thinking it's over country's lost what are you talking about we still have the supreme court we have the federal judiciary with a number of trump appointees from 45 and 47. we still have the presidency we still have obviously the entire cabinet with it what are you talking about over nothing's over nothing's over remember rocky here's why i think this political revolution is going to happen fast ladies and gentlemen no backsies now again i may be dating myself at my ripe old age of 51 not old but not young i got him here's a card right here on my desk jim can you vouch what is this card no incorrect it is the greatest first baseman of all time don mattingly stop with your nonsense now this is a soft spot with jim who believes it's keith hernandez or whatever new york first baseman but it is a card i'm not kidding so that's it it's in a piece of plastic it is the diamond kings don mattingly card and right next to it is bucky dent in action that was my favorite player uh him and donnie baseball why am i bringing up baseball cards because we were kids we used to trade baseball cards all the time and then what happens like a week later like don mattingly went on a run he hit like uh something like eight grand slams or six grand slams in one season and it never hit another grand slam again they have this great week and you're like oh my god i can't believe i trained that don mattingly traded it i want it back there's no backsies there's no backsies you can't trade back the card so if you are an on the fence voter an independent a moderate republican or moderate democrat and you voted for this crop of incoming democrats thinking you were getting jobs and affordability and gas prices i'm very sorry i'm i'm deeply apologetic i mean this that you didn't listen to the show because i warned you they are not running on any of that no but they said they were exactly they've that's what they say but that's never what they do it's called a rug pull the rug pull like don't be on the rug because you're going to there are no givebacks you are about to get hosed like you've never seen no no but they told us about affordability and stuff i know that i get that i get i get that's what they told you here's james carville this guy the only reason i'm playing jack dan carville's a left-wing consultant he wasn't elected fair enough fair enough the only reason i'm playing this clip because james carville was probably the lead political consultant for bill clinton's second term when he moderated a lot he gave a speech about the era of big government being over go look it up that was a bill clinton speech he's a freaking democrat carville told him quote it's the economy stupid carville a democrat told him you got to stop focusing on all this stupid crap he had the sister soldier moment and he got bill clinton to leave office despite the who's in the bathroom back there with monica i can't even tell you what their kids don't ask your parent what that is but despite all that he leaves office with 60 approval and a growing economy because he did not do crazy stuff so here is james carville lecturing the democrats coming in now that hey guys you better stop this dei crap weaponization of government you know endless impeachments subpoenas and you better focus on quote the economy stupid which i told bill clinton i'm just kidding i just can't sound mike that's not what he says right at all i guess no that's not even a little not even a little bit so the it's the economy stupid guy himself is now saying you better get them rat bastards up there send out them subpoenas you think the democrats the it's the economy stupid guy flipping you think this guy if he flips every single other one is not going to rug pull you don't hey man that's how we say listen to me listen to them check this out the main thing the democratic base wants i can report this to you it's not medicare for all it's not dei it's not any of that what they want is to humiliate donald trump that's right the democratic base more than anything wants to humiliate that son of a at every point that we possibly can't we want to watch him wither in anguish and misery and we already started we had a good start on november 3rd come subpoena power drag them all up there if it moves subpoena and follow the money and for god's sakes follow that idiot kids that he has follow the idiots that are surrounded him follow the people in the united states government that are engaged in treasonous behavior i.e dressing children as russian soldiers and it's not only enough to fire pete drag him before the committee subpoena the general subpoena the admirals subpoena the people in the defense department to show what an idiot this mother is folks what do they say in their own words narrator in their own words this is the it's the economy stupid guy telling you we better get those rat bastard kids up there oh i thought it was affordability i thought it was the economy stupid or something like that i'm i'm sorry i'm sorry you got you got hosed i'm sorry you know you've voted maybe in texas or in minnesota for peggy flanagan who's like we're gonna put ice in jail i thought this was about cleaning up the fraud in minnesota with the leering center no no no no no that's uh that's not what it's about they elected the fraud but he thought he was a lieutenant governor they put the rubber stamp on it so you're like okay okay it's carville he's a little crazy now he's getting a little older the raging cajun or whatever they cause raging again no big deal he wasn't elected and he doesn't know much about anything anyway well here's a guy you maybe you're saying something well it's definitely about gas prices i mean we elected the democrats who we always know right mike we always know the democrats have been the party of like lower gas prices and producing uh yeah david if you please if you don't get the joke i can't help you the democrats motto is keep it in the ground keep it in the ground keep it in the ground keep what in the ground the gas and the fuel and the oil that's their actual motto keep it in the ground so when they sue everybody so the democrats will do nothing but make gas prices 10x worse if they can here's a guy on fox news and he's like a trade rep for the petrochemical oil and gas association he brings up so you may say oh whatever dan he's a lobby fine fair enough you may trust him or not trust him i don't really care he's a trade rep the point he makes up the point he makes on the show here is absolutely accurate here he is talking about how we are in the gas industry if you elect democrat keep it in the ground higher fuel price democrats we hate petrochemicals we can't move why can't we move from texas because the freaking oil is in the ground in texas what are you gonna do horizontal fracking from freaking florida to texas it doesn't work that way the oil is in texas in the permian and elsewhere so if they tell you to keep it in the ground it's going to stay in the ground and your fuel prices are going to go up folks you got to listen to this point because there are people who did they swore they were voting on gas prices who were about to get rug pulled and rug pulled hard to totally ass over decadal check this out you have to look at places like what happened in california or what happened in colorado and the absolute worst thing that could happen to the united states economy would to have california style energy policy implemented in texas we saw that and it would have dire consequences for the u.s economy when you take a 27 billion dollar industry like ours in texas Texas, and you begin to heavily overregulate it. What you just mentioned with regards to methane regulations and other things, that's exactly what happened in other states. When we saw that clean sweep of democratic elections take place in Colorado, for example, in 2019, we've seen a 25% to 40% reduction in production in Colorado. My big fear, and I've said this to my Texas friends, is what happens if Texas becomes californicated, for example? If you're a business in California, you don't like being regulated, you pick up and you move to Texas, okay? But as our industry, we have to go where the actual resource is, and so it's not like we have that particular luxury. What happened in Colorado, what happened in California, is the oil and gas industry moved to where the resource was, which was Texas. We don't have any other place to go, so we have to actually watch this one very, very carefully. That's why alarm bells were going off yesterday morning when everybody woke up after the election. The results were in. Again, discount the guy, "Oh, he works for the petrochemical industry," fine, I don't care. Dispute what he said, not who he is. I don't know the guy, I never met him. He's on with, I think it was Dagan McDowell on Fox. Tim Stewart. Tim Stewart, thank you, Jim. But dispute what he said, and do it without laughing at yourself. Is the oil and the gas in the ground in Texas or not? So how are you going to deregulate it from Florida? You can't. If the Democrats in Texas, which they will, with your new communist governor, say keep it in the ground, you can just stop the derricks going today. Roughnecks be out of a job, fields drying up. You can't move the business. It's not like you could do one of these X-Men, Magneto things. Let's put some metal in the oil in the ground, and Magneto will suck it up and move it to Florida, the home of free. No, no, that's not the way any of this works. Folks, they don't even have a plan. This is the craziest part of this whole thing. They don't even have a plan. Here is this. This lady is not some fringe figure in the DSA. She's like the head of the National Democrat Socialists of America. I think her name is Megan Romer, yeah. She's not some local yokel sitting in a bar going, "Oh, socialism." He's like that drunken guy from The Simpsons or something. If you were the head of a movement, Communist Socialists of America, and you're suggesting upending the American healthcare system, and you're voting on lower healthcare prices, don't you think it's imperative on you if you're going to steal people's free market healthcare they bargained for with their employer? Don't you think it's imperative to at least understand the mechanics of how it works? Folks, they have no idea. Here's this lady, Megan Romer, on Fox News with Martha McCallum. Martha McCallum. number out there from actual economists who've looked at it now you can dispute the number all you want fair enough but your obligation then is to produce your own number and say well here's what i think my plan to destroy the health care system is going to cost ladies and gentlemen not only should i have a number she doesn't even care about the number she's like i'm not really here for that i'm just really here to destroy your health care system check this out it will cost money to provide health care to everyone. So that's $47.4 trillion Medicare for all. It's a made up number. You say it's a made up number, but it was done by economists. So this number is $49 trillion. What's your number when you add up everything on that list? What number did you come up with? The numbers are, there's no like one solid number. That number is going to shift as we pass various just give me a basic number for your wish list outrageous because you have to figure these things out i'm not gonna give you a solid number that's not what i'm here to do you heard it from her mouth you don't need me to repeat what she said she said it herself if you voted on affordability the it's the economy stupid guy is telling you they're going to do the opposite if you voted on gas prices the texas democrats are about to keep it in the ground you're about to get worked if you voted on health care and quote free cheaper Bungino.
