Let Me Paint A Picture For You (Ep. 2614) - 10/12/2026

All America, all the time. Sit down, buckle up and get ready for the Dan Bongino show. No time to waste. We got Hurricanes, Ilhan Omar, Columbus Day, a choice is clear. I need to paint a picture for you about what's going to happen if we lose. This is going to be a show on top of a show inside of a show wrapped in another show. So no time to waste. Let me just say upfront. Most importantly, my heart, my thoughts, my prayers, actual prayers. I don't say that if, you know, please, Jesus, help these folks out are with the folks with the hurricane up in the panhandle of Florida, Alabama, Georgia. I saw a couple of posts online. People were like, oh, it really wasn't that big of a deal. Yeah, it was. They got dinged up pretty good up there. So folks, just keep them. I believe in a power prayer. It's up to you. I mean, I'm not here to force anybody to do anything. But I also believe in the power of like funds and money. So I know Samaritan's Purse does a lot of good work. We donated the money from that baseball president, Trump signed. It was something like $55,000 to Samaritan's Purse. So yeah, they got dinged up pretty good. So anything you can do to help out, we would really appreciate it. I got that just, I mean, to tell you, Jake, a waterfall of information to get to you today. So much so I had a scrap stuff and move it to tomorrow. Let's get right to it. Folks, the stakes cannot be higher right now. We have a country fighting hard for America. We can't lose focus. We have to clean up this mess, protecting the momentum takes every day. Americans like you staying in the fight for our rights and freedoms.

Today's show also brought to you by my Patriot supply. Now's the time to get prepared. You got storms coming. You saw it this weekend with the hurricane. Don't get caught without your emergency supplies. The power goes out. The furnace stops. Roads are dangerous. Stores get picked over and the storms on top of you. Your options, they shrink really fast. My Patriot supply told me they saw this first hand last winter in major storms threatened. Their Vesta indoor heater and stove became one of the hottest preparedness items of the season. It sold out again and again as people rushed to prepare it the last minute. That's exactly why my Patriot supply created the winter prep bundle to help you get ahead of the storms this time. Don't wait. It includes 114 servings of emergency food with real meals you can count on. The Vesta heater and stove is safe to use indoors. Back up power is solar charging emergency lighting and thermal blankets. In other words, food, heat, power and light already in your home before you need them. Not after when you go to prepare with Dan.com you can save almost $300 on the complete bundle. It's a great deal. Don't wait until the forecast sends everyone scrambling again. You saw what can happen. Go to prepare with Dan.com get your winter prep bundle today while it's still available. Thanks my Patriot supply. All right fellas, let's go. So happy Columbus day to everyone where we celebrate our history. We celebrate all kinds of wonderful things that happen. The discovery of this this great land. Of course, they've tried to re-characterize it as indigenous peoples day. I you want an indigenous peoples day fine. That's it's great. It's a republic. Do you think celebrate whatever you want? This is Columbus day, okay. He was a brave Italian explorer and this house Christopher Columbus is a hero and the story in the mortal words of that was adjusted inclusion Tony Soprano. Rest in peace James Gandalf eating. He was a great explorer and I'm really tired of a modern day faux standard of perfection applied to statues and historical figures. One I say faux perfect because there's nobody without error or mistake or or one of the seven deadly sins infecting their life ever applying these ridiculous standards to history. It's just absurd and obscene. I just get exhausted with it. You know, can we play President Trump a goal? A little out of order. I was going to be he was president Trump last week on Columbus day. Again, a guy who just gets it. By the way, he's really, really funny to something. I told you with this guy. Here's a guy who gets it. The choice is clear. I'll paint a picture for you in a second. Check this out. American patriots have always revered and respected this great Italian explorer. Perhaps the first ever Italian American. If you look at it, probably he was the first Italian American early settlers called the Thirteen Collean. These Columbia and eventually we named the District of Columbia in his honor and that there's a lot of people don't put them together but that's how it all happened yet. As you know, the radical left communist hate Columbus and they want to abolish Columbus day. They're still trying very hard. You know, this guy, I call him Muhammad al-Fayard. Some people call him Abdul. I call him Muhammad. Somebody said why I said I don't know. I feel like it. But he wants to abolish Columbus day. I was going to play that later in the show. However, fellas, probably better out here. We're better off right here. So I told you I've got a lot in the opening. We've had some tragedies weekend. We've had good news. It's Columbus day and there's been a revolt against this liberal decanoo nonsense trying to wipe out our history tearing down statues and Adam and statue. Imagine attacking a statue. Like it's the real person. There's the collar like from that crazy Robert De Niro Frankenstein movie. Like the Giffey from the Giffey from Game of Thrones where they shaved the ladies head shame. We're not doing that. Not on the Dan Baudjino show. I am half Italian. I'm not all Italian. I haven't spoken about this I think before. I'm only half my father and my family. They're from Palermo Sicily. My mother was Irish, German, English, and apparently a little bit of French too, which I was unaware of. But I'm very proudly half Italian. But I'm more proudly about being 100% America, all America all the time. Folks, the nothing is happening file again has another addition. We're going to have to start adding to the file shells of things that are happening that you've been told are not happening. I told you over and over. I will say in advance because I mean it and I am an actual lover of liberty, not a fake one. I believe in due process for everyone. You are presumed innocent legally in the United States of America until you are proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. An investigation does not mean guilt. That's not a disclaimer. I don't need a disclaimer. I'm reporting this. I'm just telling you that because it's true. Even for people you don't like. However, interesting revelation this morning. Again, Ilhan Omar, Congresswoman from Congresswoman from the far left side of the aisle, home rated by ICE agents and pre-dawn swoop as Trump administration probe Somali born Congresswoman's immigration papers. I'm just telling you, ladies and gentlemen. Again, you've been told by a class of diaper wearing dooms. Who don't want you to vote in this election. Of course, nothing's happening with stuff and there's more stuff happens. They just move on to another thing that I'll tell you isn't happening. Now you have a choice in this election. I read and let me just put it on the table. I read this Wall Street Journal article this week in my Matthew continuity, and I got to tell you, even though I know what's in it and you know what's in it or the context of it, I still, it kind of ruined my weekend a little bit. I'm not kidding. I even had a conversation with Paul about it. Folks, if you don't vote in this election or you decide you want to vote Democrat because I don't know, you think nothing falsely, nothing's happening. You don't like a secure border, you know, safer streets, you don't like the economic growth. I understand that you're, you were, you know, obviously you were allowed to visit secret ballot. No one knows who you voted for and they know you voted, but not who you voted for. But I just want you to understand that if you either allow the Democrats to win or vote them in the power, you need to read this piece by continuity, losing the house is bad enough. Ladies and gentlemen, losing the Senate would be an absolute disaster. I'm not here to scare you. I'm not a panicking. I'm definitely not a doomer and a gloomer. But I have to be candid with you. Folks, I'm not going to go through the entire piece. You can read it yourself if you want, but the cascade and list of horribles that will happen. If we lose this at the house is bad enough, but the Senate is a disaster. There are some liberals listening. So here, I need a civics 101 lesson. I'm for those you who in Bungino army, you can probably tune out right now. You get all this. The Senate is a six year term. There were liberals like, oh, really bad. I didn't know that the house Is it true? You can get the house back in two years, it sucks to lose it, but you can get it back. You lose the Senate and we lose a bunch of red state seats, Kansas, Iowa, Ohio, and elsewhere. Folks, you are stuck with these people for possibly six years if they get reelected 12 years. I'm not even sure I'm going to make it 12 years. I'm not dying, I'm not saying, I'm just saying like I haven't had some health crises in the past. I don't even know if I'm going to be alive in 12 years. Let me pay in a picture for you here, DC Puerto Rico statehood. We lose the Senate and a Democrat gets elected for the presidency in two years. It's going to flags in the chat, red flags in the chat, these are red flags I never want to come true. I'm just telling you, if we lose the presidency in a couple years and we at least keep a Republican Senate, there is an obstacle to their complete total tyranny. You lose the Senate for potentially two, four or six years, folks, the things that will happen. You have no idea the destruction that it's about to come your way. I just wrote a short list, election integrity out there flags in the chat, election integrity out the window, national mail and balloting, open borders will never win another election again. You win another one not in your lifetime, they will be cheating on a mass scale, they will be registering in the census, illegals, blue states will expand, not shrink their power, DC Puerto Rico statehood, that almost guarantees you four new Democrat senators packing the Supreme Court from nine to 13, maybe more members, a wealth tax, a transactions tax. You're going to see a tax on your, a tax on your, on your house on Capitol gains and your, you know, they're going to throw out any indexing that's even under books for inflation or anything else. Ladies and gentlemen, the horrors that will come down upon you, rain upon you, I know it's a lot on a Monday, I'm sorry, I've got some other stuff, I'm not forfeiting the election, I'm not a doomer. I'm just telling you the possibility we could lose is there and we all need to act like it. Dooming doesn't do you any good, but either does this polyanish of the polls are wrong. Well there's a way to prove them wrong and the answer is to vote and to drag 10 people with you, it's the only answer. We will never win another election again if we lose the Senate, the White House and the House and they get unified filibuster proof government. We won't elections out the window, mail in balloting everywhere, ballot harvesting 54, excuse me, four more Democrat senators, you will never win the Senate again, either pack Supreme court, the courts won't protect you, nothing's going to protect it, barely protect you now sometimes. Folks out, listen, I'm not a, I'm not a freaking poet, okay, I'm not like Emily Dickinson or Robert Friday, I don't even like poetry, I'm not knocking it, whatever, I know some people love the elegance of words put together in a certain way, I'm not a poetry guy, okay, I just, I speak harshly, it's a queen's thing, but life is all about like forks in the road, man. Sometimes you just gotta pick a side and sometimes that requires you to make level 10 decisions. I've discussed over and over what level 10's decisions are, was my entire year at the FBI. Over at a level 10 decision, when every single other person who's looked at it cannot figure out what the ban answer or the worst answer is, so you have to pick and if you're batting average is 50%, you're doing pretty good. Where am I going with this? This election is not one of those times, this is not bad, Justin's like, I thought you will go in somewhere different, that's not it, this election, the choice is clear today, this is a level one decision, you didn't know, yeah, I thought, yeah, no idea, I can see them in there, this is a level one decision, massive deregulation government red tape, huge second amendment wins, I hope to get to that a bit later, you saw on SBRs and suppressors last week, massive deregulation, school choice, the big, beautiful bill, no tax on social security, no tax on tips, anticipated 5% growth, median household income, the highest has ever been, poverty rate lowest has been in decades, jobless rate lowered has been in decades, secure border, crime getting crushed, this guy is cooking right now, this is not a level 10 decision, I'm sorry, it's a level one decision, even the crew didn't know where I was going, this is not bad. I told you, you know, when I was over at the bureau, right, if it's a level 10 decision, the field agent doesn't know what to do, his supervisor doesn't know what to do, the 14 doesn't know what to do, the 15 doesn't know what to do, the DAD doesn't know what to do, the AD doesn't know what to do, the ops director doesn't know what to do, the ADD doesn't know what to do, so it winds up in your, this is not bad, this is a ground ball, do you want street chaos open borders, well taxes, taxes on your real estate, your car, your freaking stamp collection people, do you want that? Here is the great Steve Miller, Stephen Miller on Fox, just in about 20 seconds, painting a picture, this is a level, this may be a level zero decision, this is the easiest decision you ever had to make at the election booth, please do not vote for people who want this country, destroy it and burn down from the inside, check this out. Democratic Party has only two kinds of people in it in Washington today. You have Democrat Socialist extremists who support G-Hod open borders, abolished jails, abolished prisons, abolished ice, abolished border control, abolished street markets, abolished fossil fuels, abolished capitalism, and you have the cowards like Schumer, like former Senator Brown, who will do whatever they are told to do, they are ordered to do by AOC and Jaya Pal and Sayed and every other person in that crazy dangerous clown car that is the Democrat Party. I, this was even putting together this show, sometimes in order to create a flow, you know what, just jump around from stories and let's cover the she-hawks, it's like that's not the way a show works, like people feel like, wait, wait, wait, they, they, they think in narratives, tell them what you're going to tell them, tell them and then tell them what you told them. Keep it consistent, if you're going to jump around, make sure you say like, okay, switching gears or something because people think it continues to storyline. So sometimes when I'm setting up a show, I want to make sure one of the first cuts I get to lays it out. I can't lay it out for you any better than Steve Miller just did. You have a choice and I'm, I'm not trying to be a jerk, it's not a hard one. It's not a hard one. There are issues we're working on. House prices, diesel, inflation, crime is not wiped out, whoever it's the safest streets you've ever lived in. That doesn't mean they're totally safe, probably you don't want to walk out some liberal city at two o'clock in the morning with a mega hat on Sandley, juicy Smollier. But we're in a better place than we've ever been. This guy is cooked for the last two years as president. And when you think about the other side, the alternative, ladies and gentlemen, the choice is crystal clear. How is it that our opponents? It's a binary. We have a two party system for all its faults, it's Republicans versus Democrats. There hasn't been a significant third party challenge since Ross Perot when I was a kid. I'm probably aging myself. The choice is clear. The other side that Democrats are always on the wrong side. Because the heroes they pick are just like, you've got to claw your face and disbelieve that these people pretend they're on team America. Look at what's happening up in New York right now. I want to play a clip for you, Secretary Mark Wayne Mullen, talking about a list. I want you to keep this number in your head, 258. There are 258 illegals in New York, apparently wanted for murder, murder, Zoran Mondami and team Democrat who hate ice, they are openly campaigning against any immigration enforcement. Even for murderers or accused murderers or convicted murderers, these are their heroes. This is your choice. This is not a level 10 decision. Murderers, no murderers, this is an easy one. He's got the receipts to back it up. You got a choice coming up. The choice is clear. This is level one. Check this out. Mark Wayne Mullen, sorry. Let's think about the 258 illegals that are in New York City right now that are wanted for murder. Let's talk about the 258 that are currently in state prison that killed individuals that were at legal that we got the tanners on. All 258 of those individuals took an American life and all 258 deaths were 100% preventable because those illegals shouldn't be here. Folks, how the hell in this election with just three weeks to go are the Democrats team blue, which is not team America, always on the wrong side. I don't mean the wrong side like it's a crime. question fair tax versus flat tax. I'm a fair tax guy. However, I can make arguments for the flat tax too. This is a choice thing. This one's better. That one's better. This is not, this is easy. This is level one, level zero. Do you want 258 murderers removed from city streets by ice? Oh, you just want to let them continue the murdering. You want the murdering to continue? That that's team blue, which is not team America. Folks, Donald Trump over these last two years, absolutely cooked. This guy was the chef in the kitchen. It's everything perfect, nothing's ever perfect. Ever, ever is the trajectory upward in nearly every space of significance, economy, healthcare, education, regulatory reform. All the, yes, yes. Here's another one proving my point. Keep this in your head. Do you have a choice here? The other side is not team America. They're team murderer. They're also team torture and narco terrorists. No. Yes, no, yes. Here's a clip from Fox, President Trump. First president to have the balls to go and get Maduro, a narco terrorist scumbag, and put him on trial, torturing Americans, drug trafficking, fentanyl, drug deaths in America, comedy, I mean, disgusting political prisoner holding A-hole. So he goes and gets him in one of the most sophisticated, technically incredible military missions we've seen in our time was actually the last thing I was a part of in my time at the FBI. And the left is complaining. They're on team Maduro, team torture. No, yes, check it out yourself. Former Venezuelan leader Nicholas Maduro and his wife Celia Flores are behind bars facing new allegations of torturing Americans. But protesters in New York are rallying for their release, blaming their arrest on President Trump. Trump is trying to kill the first lady of Venezuela in prison here. He doesn't care about her life. He doesn't care about President Maduro. Trump doesn't care about the Venezuelan people. He just wants their oil. We want the fish you say, huh? Yeah, listen, the leftists are always on the wrong side of justice. They're the same people, AOC, BLM. They were on the side of convicted cop killers, calling them freedom fighters. You saw them on the side of Lindsey Clancy. Even on go all the way back to OJ. They're always on the wrong side. People need to be very clear. Nicholas Maduro was a really repressive evil dictator. He ran torture chambers. He was the head of a criminal network that involved narco traffickers and terrorists. He needs to be in jail and his wife was very much complicit in all of this. Yes, Rachel, thank you. Sometimes you've got to find clips to fit the story you're going with for the show. The media coverage of the day. This one was not hard. She's 100% correct. Why are they always on Team Lindsey Clancy, Team Maduro, Team Luigi Mangione, Team Nidal Hassan, convicted terrorist murderer. Why are they always on the wrong team? The answer is because they're not on your freaking team. They're not on your team. This is not a hard call. It's not. They are always on the wrong team. Justin, producer Justin makes the show coming up in a minute. I saw one of his, I follow him on X. And I said, yes, here we go again. So they're talking about executing Nidal Hassan a convicted terrorist scumbag. I don't care if they live stream it or not. Don't care at all. Matter of fact, we're going to see it, see it. And the Democrats are all upset. They're all upset. This is not who America is. No, it is who we are. We're not embarrassed about it. They didn't care about Luigi Mangione. Again, everybody's innocent till proven guilty entitled to his day in court. I actually believe in the Republic, but it's interesting in the shift, right? Why are they always on the wrong side? Quick break, I'll show you what I mean. I think it's one of Justin's first X posts on the show. If not, sorry about that, but welcome back to the show, Justin's good to have it.

Check them out, we really appreciate it. Okay, back to the show. Folks, Justin put this up last week, and I'm like, "This kid really gets a kid." I've known him since he's young. He's just like 40. And I'm like, "Yeah, Justin, I told you, he took a thing of alcohol on a plane, "we were on my time." I'm like, "Why do you tell you you can't take that?" He's like, "Dude, I'm like 27 years old or whatever." I just sat the kid around forever. But this was a great thing. This is the lab. So now, Nidal Hassan, Secretary Hegset, and of course, President Trump is going to make a final decision. They're deciding if they're going to execute Nidal Hassan publicly. He's going to be executed and deserves it. I've had some major shifts on the death penalty. I've publicly stated on the show for a lot of reasons I've already described. But the left is like, "Ah, Nidal Hassan, terrorists killer." "Ah, Nidal Hassan, we definitely. " It's all about like dignity and all that stuff. They didn't have any problem. Here's Spike. Why the online left is sipping for Luigi Manjioni. The dark fandom behind Healthcare Murders CEO is a argument over whether Luigi Manjioni is a hero or for a glimpse into an unusual American movie. I mean, dude, just pick, pick a side, man. Pick a side. What is it? Palmer Lucky, he is an end-of-the-real defense company. Palmer Lucky put up an expose. I just feel like you deserve a position from me on this. I don't have any problem with executing Nidal Hassan by firing squad and doing it publicly. I don't, and I'm just gonna tell you why. If we're gonna do it, there's nothing to be cute about. There's nothing like, "Well, we don't want to see it." No, no, you don't have to see it. You just don't have to tune in. I have zero problem with a public execution. Palmer Lucky, I think nailed it. He's like, "Listen, I'm getting a lot of incoming about this execution because I've been outspoken and wanting public executions for over a decade." My position is simple. Executions should be public and brutal. Not private and medicalized. They're the ultimate example that states monopoly on violence and the only way to keep that from running out of controls to confront voters with the trade. They made every single time that they might have appropriate confidence or revulsion in the institution. He knows it's not new thinking, George Washington thought the same. The way we've shifted from hanging to firing squads to doctors quietly ejecting chemicals that send our worst gently off the sleep as awful and dystopian a total short circling of important feedback mechanisms. It makes needless executions more likely, not less so. People who demean this as barbaric or yucky missed the whole point. It doesn't somehow become torture or inhumane just because we decline to hide the act behind a curtain. You can read the rest of it there. Folks, we should be honest about people what we're doing here with people. And I think Palmer Lucky nails it. Folks, it is not our job as a country to look away. It's your choice to look away. You don't have to see it. But we shouldn't hide this stuff. What I appreciate about the Trump presidency and this administration is whether you agree with President Trump or not, whether it's on our side or the other side. And you see factions developing on our side too. They object to certain things. That's okay, that's fine. I'm just telling you that at least you have something. to object to. The president does not hide his feelings. He doesn't hide his policy prescriptions. Some of them are not popular. He's taking his stance on things. He doesn't even have to take a stand on and you can object to it. He's spoken about about huge things in the national debate. You know, you run more and other things where localized communities don't like flock cameras. He's got an opinion on that. You don't have to agree with them, but at least you know. I agree with Palmer that if we're going to do this, then you should see what it looks like. And everyone else should see it too. Or at least have the option. That's why I appreciated this segment last night. This may be something a little close to my heart, but you know, I spend some time with the secret service I would or you get the point. Deputy director Matt Quinn, who is the deputy director of the secret service and director Sean Kern, Ron 60 minutes last night was a pretty good segment. But I really appreciate the deputy director of the secret service not beating around the bush with liberal goofballs who still Justin and Geek couldn't live are still going with this decoy plane argument when president Trump put the you know, escaped out on a decoy plane and left the secret service and a press on a different plane. Just be real about it. Here's Matt Quinn like, hey, 60 minutes. I'm really sorry you didn't get the memo, but the secret service is not here to protect you. They're here to protect the president. You don't want to be in danger. Don't go on presidential trips. Just like you don't have to watch the execution. Just don't go. Nobody cares. I appreciate brutal honesty. And this was at this put a freaking smile on my face this morning. Check this out. Agents were left behind with other staffers on this decoy Air Force one in Turkey. Were you you were okay with that? When you're operating in any protective detail with the president of the United States for any president, the priority is the president. Everyone else, staff, agents, media, personal involved are not the priority, including our own personnel. As hard as that may be for some to understand, the mission is to protect the president of the United States. Folks, again, life is about deeply complicated choices and forks in the road. I set it opening up the show today. This is not one of them. There is an option here. You're a secret service agent. It doesn't want to be put in danger because you don't want to be in then don't be a secret service agent. You know, I got a friend with a boat. He's always complaining about the expenses on the boat. Apparently boat means bring on another thousand, whatever. I said, there's an easy way to avoid these expenses. Just don't get a boat. Don't do it. You're a media person. You're crapping your diaper because I'm around a president. The president made his the most threatened man earth. Then just don't go on the trip. Nobody cares. I cannot recall a single time in my 12 years with the secret service. An agent coming up to me going, Dan, I don't want to be a post-standard at this site. It could be dangerous. You would be left out of the place. This is an easy call. Just stay home. Just like it's an easy call. Pro Maduro, Narco, terrorist, torture of Americans, of his political prisoner holder in Venezuela. Or we get him in jail and try him here. These are 258 murderers in New York. Ice goes and get some ATIs. Let's be pro murder. These are these are there we go. Chris van Hollen with another. Have a beer. Have a do another beer summit. Just like Obama. The choice is easy, man. You want more evidence? There's Matt Quinn, deputy director of the secret service with Sean current. Here's the best secretary state I see in my lifetime. I'm excited to see the four-year body of work. We're only two years in. Secretary Rubio is just a dragon slayer, man. The guy is just crushing it. Folks, this is one of those issues. I put out a post this weekend on X. I strongly encourage you to check it out where I said, listen, there's a lot of big headline wins for the Trump administration that dominate the headlines. The border, we've talked about it, the crushing crime, the low poverty rate. Those are what grab headlines. Folks, the hard reality is I want to start to focus on some of the secondary wins too that you're not hearing about to make the choice even clearer. If you think this is a level five decision, it's not. It's level one. This is an easy call in this election with three weeks to go. It's easy. This is one of those issues you may not hear a lot about, but I promise you it's a big deal. If you are a government agent or in our military or if you're any diplomat in the United States, the International Criminal Court is a tyrannical court whose only goal is to arrest Americans they don't like overseas or if they work with Democrats, try to get them here too. We have a court system. You know what it's called? It's called the court system in the United States. We don't need a bunch of globalists, anti-US ridiculous Marxist, socialist, tyrant fascist losers in a fake court that unfortunately is real, but fake principles telling us what to do. They want to lock up your sons and daughters in the military. Rubio gets it and so does this president. That's why Rubio is going to war with the ICC International Criminal Court because I'm telling you this is the one of the most dangerous threats to Americans overseas you've seen and finally we got an administration that's had enough. Check this out. For decades now, both Republicans and Democrats have rejected the idea that the International Criminal Court has any power to prosecute American citizens, to prosecute military service members or political leaders because an American never joined the court. We don't need that court and we don't want it, but now globalist experts that are in ocean a way they don't care what you think. They want the International Criminal Court to do more including the prosecution of American citizens and service members that are defending their country. They want to prosecute border patrol agents that are protecting our nation's borders and they want to prosecute our elected leaders that are ensuring our national security. They want more power and they want it at the expense of our sovereignty as a nation and President Trump will never allow the International Criminal Court to prosecute Americans and that's why today the United States is sanctioning the International Criminal Court. We will ban transactions with this rogue court cutting off their resources and crippling their ability to operate against us because our message is clear. You know how they're even clapping inside. You know how long I've been asking people to do this? Folks, the Democrats want this. They want a bunch of overseas communists sitting on a elevated stand with their black robes on a court, convicting your sons and daughters of fictitious war crimes they made up. So the United States can't recruit anyone in its military and take any foreign action whatsoever. Is that what you want? This is the first present in our lifetime to take significant action against them. Here's Wall Street Journal coverage of this too. Again, they're not any huge mega people over there. This is their editorial board. Sometimes they take every opportunity to go after the Trump administration. The ICC is a threat to America. We never ratified the Rome statue to authorize the ICC and Congress has prohibited US cooperation. The Democrats love the ICC but that doesn't stop them, the ICC from investigating US forces in Afghanistan. Lately, here's the line, here's the line, flags in the chat. Lately, the ICC courts allies threaten that it will prosecute President Trump, his officials, US soldiers or border patrol agents. The choice is clear. This is not a level 10 decision in this midterm. It is a level one decision. It couldn't be easier. You want our border patrol agents kidnapped at the border by a bunch of ICC people and put on an international star chamber court. This is, again, one of those not headline issues. If you're not really deep into politics, you don't, you know, a lot of people won't vote on you should because it's your kids who will be on trial for fictitious war crimes. The international criminal court makes up. Yeah, exactly. And then, yes, and then your sons and daughters in the military, when they get executed, the left will think it's great while defending Needal Hassan. This is a, it's a punt. It's a freaking punt. And I don't mean like big fat Greek wedding, like a punt, like the cake. I mean, like a punt, like an easy picture throws ball. Just catch the ball with the bat. It's super easy. Are you pro voter fraud, too? This is not for Bajino. I know how you're voting. But there are some people on the fence who listen to my show and they are. I get your emails. I appreciate you being here too. I'm glad you've chosen this opportunity. Someone this weekend when I was out told me they just discovered my show and they appreciate that I bring receipts for everything. Here's some more receipts. I would do the nothing is happening file, but we already opened the show. Are you pro voter fraud? Vote Democrat. They always picked the wrong side of every single issue. Here's FBI director Patel. I thought nothing was happening on voter fraud. The left and the doomers told you that, correct? Here's another, I say another one because we just covered the same story last week and with a different group of people. Two non-citizens arrested for allegedly voting in American elections. One accused of voting in 2024. The other in multiple elections. If we have FBI and our partners in Alabama investigated, federal elections are for American citizens period. I don't nothing was happening. This is at least the fourth or fifth time we've covered these ongoing voter fraud arrests. Again, the doomers will tell you, I guess, I don't vote. Hand off your country to an international criminal court of tyrants so they can try and execute our soldiers for fake war crimes. Let's open our border again. Let's engage in mass ballot harvesting. Let's pack the Senate, pack the Supreme Court. That's a great idea because the doomers told you so. Debating, running. I'll skip the whole law firm. I want to get to this too. Folks, I feel like it's my job to really, to not only bring the receipts, but tattoo them on your cerebral cortex. I can't emphasize to you enough how important this election is. There is the potential if we can hold the House and the Senate or one or the other and hold the presidency in just a couple years that the massive redistricting that will happen. Listen to me. It's going to happen as a part of our every 10 years we do a census. The electoral map for the country will completely change. The worst electoral map we may ever have may be now and in the next presidential. It'll only get better if we can just hold here. If we lose here, that's all going to get thrown at what would be different. The Democrats are going to count illegals in the census. There it is in a nutshell. And forget it, we're screwed. They're going to open a border, let 20 million people in. We will never win the House again. We have to hold here. It is up to me. I feel like it's my job to get out ahead of this stuff and warn you what's ahead. Another thing I've warned you about, if you are an older voter, you know, maybe my 50, but 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, God bless you even more. Hey, God bless you, man. You're going to outlive a lot of us great for you. I've tried to warn you about this. If you think the Democrats are your friends on social security, Medicare and elsewhere, you are crazy. There is a brewing war in this country. It is a narrative war. Some of it's funded by foreign operatives. Some of it's just suckers meant to get kids to hate their parents and grandparents. They are coming for you next. I promise you, you're seeing it here. You're seeing the media cover it here. Wall Street Journal. Look, affluent older Americans got much richer in the post pandemic years. Even there, I'm telling you folks, they're coming for your stuff. It doesn't matter. You fought the wars. You busted your ass. You saved your money. The narrative going forward is going to be the boomers stole it from you. Your grandparents stole it from you. Your parents stole it from you. Please listen to your boy, Dan. We were out in front of the Russian hoax. We were out in front of the impeachment hoax. Folks, we are rarely wrong on this stuff. If you think, oh, I'll vote Democrat. They're going to protect my stuff. It is the Democrats who are promoting this stuff. You are going to see a revolt against 50, 60, 70 or that boomers, boomers think, they're going to get all your stuff. Go get it. Go get it back. The crazy part about this whole thing is that narrative, old versus young, completely discounts the fact that even if you believe in income equality, I believe in merit equality. You work hard and you should, you should benefit from it. The story is the opposite. Here's even left-wing axios. I'm telling you, they're making this whole thing up that a bunch of rich boomers have screwed you over. Axios, from this morning, post-pandemic surprise, a surprising finding. It's not surprising for me, by the way. They just put out a new data set by the Fed, middle and lower earners, inflation-adjusted incomes. The left will tell you they went down, right? Not true. Rose during the post-pandemic years, but higher earners so their incomes fall. In other words, the rich did not get richer. The rich on average, their incomes went down and look what happened. The bottom portion of the median real income curve grew. I'm just giving you the numbers. This is axios. They don't even like President Trump. This whole argument, rich boomers screwed you over. The rich boomers are killing you with their social security. I've already warned you about social security finances. You don't blame your grandparents. I'm sorry, it's a fool's errand. We got to fix the system. There's no doubt. If you are one of the grandparents, please acknowledge the system is going broke and we have to fix it. But there's going to require a trade-em. This thing that a bunch of rich people screwed you over is completely fake. The numbers don't even back that up. You want to see even more evidence how freaking clear in this election. This choice is folks, are you a union worker out there? I know in many cases you've been told by people in the shop and elsewhere. I know my whole family is full of union workers, tradesmen, craftsmen. I get it. I talk to them all the time. I grew up a manual labor. I was not in a union growing up. However, worked around union. People in my whole life grew up in a union neighborhood in Queens. I get it. I know a lot of you vote Democrat thinking they're going to protect you. Ladies and gentlemen, they will not. They are not only not going to protect you. They are going to round everything up in a ball. They're positive. And shove it right. Here's a Wall Street Journal again. They're promoting this Medicare for all. When they say Medicare for all folks, they mean Medicare for all. Medicare for all also means they know forcing Americans into a government system that millions don't want. Troy Jackson, running for Senate and Maine, didn't even attempt to deny it. After Republicans, Susan Collins went after him for quote, "wanting big government to take over to healthcare to abolish private insurance that people such as the workers at Bath Iron Works are happy with." You understand this is true. The plan they're running on. I want to show you this, the other is going to make your private healthcare unlawful against the law. They notice a big vulnerability for Troy Jackson since 47% of people in Maine had employer health coverage in 2024. Your health insurance will be illegal. Read the bill. Read the bill. Here, it says it right here. Mr. Sanders, Bernie Sanders bill that these support these liberal nuts. Your insurance quote shall be unlawful to sell health insurance that duplicates the Medicare for all program. It'll all be illegal. If you're in a union and your union bargained for excellent healthcare and forfeited away decades of salary increases in exchange for health security for your family through your free market insurance plan, you are about to get this thing right in the ball. They're going to roll it up. It's not going to be small either. Justin's like that would hurt. That's the point. That's the point, man. Folks, you got a choice. I hope this picture I'm painting for you makes the choice clear. I'm begging you not to make the wrong one. You know, I know also with complicated issues. There's a lot of intro party fun. I'm not talking about the doomer's. That's a grip. I'm talking about there are Republicans out there. There's a good chunk of them who have disagreements about President Trump or US military in Iran and elsewhere. Listen, fair enough. I support the president. Again, I saw a lot of the intel used to back this. I just agree we were in a really bad spot. But regardless of where you stand, I'm asking you as a friend here too, even if you vehemently disagree with me, air your grievances in the chat on it. It's okay. Even if you vehemently disagree with me about what happened that Iran and what's still going on. Can I just ask you to listen to this? It's just about a minute. I've been following this race. This is a very interesting candidate. Deep blue state in New Jersey, but there's a candidate running for Senate. This guy Justin Murphy. I love his hair, by the way, reminds me of the 80s. I haven't heard a more concise explanation about what's going on in Iran, even if you disagree than this. The fact that he did this extemporaneously and just off the cuff. This thing was all over ex this weekend. Senate candidate Justin Murphy running against the hapless Corey Boker in New Jersey. Just listen to the answer. Even if you disagree, this is well said. President Trump calls you and says, I'll do whatever you want. What do I do in Iran? What's your answer? Finish it. Finish that war in a positive manner. We can't wait halfway through and decide we don't want to do this anymore. The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is a radical terrorist organization that has deprived the Iranian people and the Persian people of their history and of a decent life. They have murdered, raped, tortured, assassinated, promoted, and promoted terrorism all throughout the world, especially in the region of Middle East. They are a cancer on human existence. I remember the young boy watching those walls of our November 1979 watching the radical Islamic terrorist storm over the walls of our embassy in 52 Americans, so for 444 days, and ever since November 1979, the IRGC in Iran has done nothing but export terror, murder, rape, oppression, and assassination to the region and to the world and its time it stops. Four decades is enough. The Iranian people have suffered enough and I would say Mr. President, put your cowboy hat on and get out there and catch some asses and get this done and done right. Who put the truck to the back of that? We did not do that. I should have had to. What's that? I know you were jamming in there. I get it even if you disagree. Even if you disagree, can we just agree on this that the answer was crisp, concise, and he's not reading any notes? I don't know who this guy is. New Jersey is a tough state. I've run in deep blue states. It's really hard, but man, was that an answer? That may be, well, you guys disagree. What are the best foreign policy answers? I've ever heard of my life. Come on, Dan, that's a little much. No, it's not. I mean, even if you're a douter on the, and I got it, I get it. I'm not mad at you, man. Even if you're a douter, you're probably thinking, that was pretty well summed up. I can see the chat going, but as American flags, can we at least agree on that? The Iranians are the Iranian mullah ocracy or a bunch of terrorist scumbags. Whether you agree, we should do something about it now or later, they should be called out exactly like that. Can we get a picture of that hair? We haven't seen hair like this from the 80s. So it reminds me of that Wall Street movie, like "Greet is good or so." Remember this? I don't know. Maybe I'm agent myself, but everybody looked like this in the 80s. You just don't see that look anymore. Good for it. I'm not laughing at you, bro. I'm laughing with you. Good for you. This guy's going to, you know, you think we can get him on the show? Let's try. Let's try. What do you think, folks? Yes or no in the chat. Let's try to get him on the show, because I'm telling you this is what the best dancers I've ever heard. All right. Listen, a quick break and I am not avoiding the story that was all over the internet this weekend at all. Where is James Taloriko? I'm going to give you kind of both sides of this because the Bongino rule applies, folks. Hold. This is why I always tell you, I'm not telling you what to talk about or not. Talk about, he's running for Senate in Texas. Of course, it's going to be a topic conversation. The only thing I ask with the Bongino rule is give a story 24 to 72 hours before you draw a conclusion. Talk about it all you want. I'm not the thought police. I'm going to talk about it next, but it's really important to get the story right. He responded, whether you believe them or not as up to you, I'll get to that in a second. Hey, one of the best parts of my morning is the first cup of coffee. Blackout coffees where I go, brutal awakening is one of their best out there. We love it. Blackout coffee, bold coffee taste, never bitter. It makes your mornings better.

Folks, the choice could not be clearer. In outside of Abdul Al-Sahia, this is the second worst candidate running for office. He's the 75 genders guy. He's the guy. I think God may be a woman. He's the guy who talks about his whiteness, like it's some kind of plague and a curse. He's running in freaking Texas, Texas, like the testosterone capital of the world. How the hell is this guy, if you believe the polls, and that's a big if, within 20 points of Ken Paxson, who even if you don't like Ken Paxson, no one's going to argue his conservative bona fides. I like Ken Paxson. I think he's a great choice. He's one statewide before. This should not be hard. This is a level zero decision. Tala Rico has been gone. No one knows where he is. He'd been gone for something like 10 days. The guy's running for Senate. It's kind of important given the importance of this one out of 100 position. If the Democrats win one out of 104, it's kind of important that you tell us where you are. So there was some online stories about him being in a facility or elsewhere. I can't verify stories. That's why I'm not repeating them. It's up. The bongi don't really applies to me. It's the way I roll. But he responded to them. Do you believe this guy? Folks, I'm not really sure. I'm not telling you what to believe or not believe. I'm just saying like the guy had the flu. All right. The flu is really bad. But what was this like the black plague flu or something? I mean, the guy was gone in a critical moment before an election. His story, I'm not really sure I'm buying this whole thing. I want to play the minute 20 seconds of this because I don't want to be accused of taking anything out of context. Here's his response. Just happened not that long ago to a reporter who was like, "Hey man, where were you?" Check this out. You were off the campaign for more than a week, roughly nine days, I believe. Your campaign said you had to flu. What happened? Yeah, I got the flu. And I'm feeling much better. And I'm glad I had a chance to recover. If you don't take the opportunity to get well, sometimes you can get even sicker. And so I'm glad we made the decision to just take the week, get better. And now I'm glad to be back on the trip. You've talked about how you're diabetic and that has when diabetes get the flu, it can get really bad. How bad was it for somebody once in a while? Is this just like in bed rest or did you ever have to go to a doctor or hospital? I just went to my primary care physician, but it wasn't anything worse than a nasty case of the flu. And so I was in bed and drinking lots of liquids. Unfortunately, the campaign made me work from home, so I didn't even get full days off. But you didn't want to be out on the trail and didn't want to get anyone else sick. It's important, I think, for leaders to be responsible in these moments. And I'm glad to be back. Feel much better. I want to get your response because the internet was doing its thing. The internet was invested in your outcome. Yeah, okay. I'm sure it's because they care so much about me. Well, so conservative folks on Twitter and some of Paxton's Alley were pushing the idea that you had a stress-induced episode and were getting treatment for it. What are your thoughts? Did that happen? That's not true. I just had the flu and I feel much better. But it's a good reminder that you can't believe everything you read on the internet. Listen, man, you believe what you want to believe. I'm applying to Bonsino rule until I have evidence. Otherwise, this is the receipt show. I'd rather be right and not first on anything. You do your own thing. It's up to you. I'm just telling you that I was a candidate for office, okay? And I'm not fudging the numbers here. I got this thing once. It was a blood vessel. It burst badly in my hand. I think it's called a biogenic carcinoma or something. It was ugly. I mean, I thought it hurt. Bad. This is blood vessels like popping. I don't need to get like graphic and nasty. I had to have surgery on this. In my inner surgery, it's not like I had to go out or anything. They anesthetized the area. I had to cut it out. And if you're a doctor out there, you know what it is. And it was not pretty. So I got it on my hand. And folks, it was my handshaking hand. This is like during an active campaign. I went out there, wrapped that thing up and did like the reverse handshake with my left hand that I'd apologize. I'd say, hey, folks, I'm sorry. I don't mean disrespect you because you know, you don't want them sitting out there with their hand. I was like, I have this, you know, my hand. I just had surgery on my hand. I went out like if he had the flu, this is what I'm confused about. Why not just do a video and say, hey, I have the flu. Look, I'm sick. Like people would see, when you have the flu, really bad. There's no faking it. Like, you can see it. You've got that drawn white look in your face. You look to hydrated. Your eyes are sunken from not sleeping. Why not do a video? Listen, we're entitled to know this is an important election coming up. I'm just not buying a whole story, but I'm holding on any of the details until I get better because until I get better information. I'm not buying it now. Folks, again, the choice is clear in this election. I've said over and over, President Trump is dealing every day with level 10 decisions. There's no great decision. There are bad decisions and worse ones. If it was a great decision, someone in his cabinet or beneath them made it. He has only hard decisions to make. Life is full of tradeoffs. This election is just not one of them. I put out this tweet this week and I mentioned before. I spent a lot of time working on this because again, all of the other wins. We've had so many headline wins on the border, on crime, the murder rate, the economy, the poverty rate. We've had so many big headline wins that some of the other stuff is getting lost. How many second amendment supporters we have in the chat? I'm going to guess it's overwhelming. Yes, two-way American flags in the chat. No, you're not a second amendment. I am. It is a signature issue. The speech that put me on the political map was a speech I did at a second amendment rally in Maryland that was like, I don't know, over 10 years ago. I remember I got a call from Micah Pelka. I think he was at the blaze at the time. He's like, is this you, his speech? We're going to put it on the blaze website, whatever. That was it. That's what launched my political career. Some of you don't remember that, but it was a speech at a party. Yeah, American flags in the chat. You're damn right. I am a huge second amendment supporter. Did you see what happened? We've got a really solid ATF director in there. If we're going to have an ATF, I don't think we necessarily need one. However, if we're going to have one, I told you, it's not the ATF agents and the director's choice, then you should have good people in Rob Sikato who's running the ATF. It's done an amazing job. Suppressors, short-barrel rifles. Now your second amendment rights are not being trampled anymore by a lot of this stuff. Now we still, it's not a full, complete victory. However, it's having a Trump administration in there was huge, was huge for this. Here's a Wall Street Journal article two about regulations. I know like a lot of these are wonky issues like, you know, green new deal air conditioners that don't work. Stupid, low-flow shower heads. So your water bill is even more because you've got to sit in the shower for two hours. I know like people don't vote on shower heads that a lot of people vote on the second amendment, but on other stuff. But I put out this tweet about school choice, President Trump, signing this massive bill for school choice in the BBB. These things happen. One of them is this war on red tape. You want to go back to more government red tape in your life? I want you to understand these numbers. James Freeman, he wrote this piece, "What is Trump onomics?" And he notes about Trump's regulatory reform. This is on the ballot. Among regulations deemed economically significant, they assessed that this year President Trump and his officials have issued more than twice as many deregulatory rules. In other words, regulations wiping out regulations as regulatory ones. He notes this beautiful activity ramped up in the just completed quarter with deregulatory actions outnumbering burdensome regulations by more than four to one. I know these are in big headline issues. I know it, but this stuff is on the ballot, man. This stuff is on the ballot. 2A, second amendment, school choice, deregulations, freaking low-flow shower head faucets, all of this stuff. They're not the big ticket items, but they are important things. You also got people in the government who were finally taking it to these levels who have dominated the media cycle. Listen, I know I got this make America funny against segment. I never really intended to apply it to Trump administration officials, but folks got best into Treasury Secretary. It's just freaking hilarious, just like Trump. He was on Foxy Friends this weekend. And you know, Pocahontas, Elizabeth Warren. She doesn't even know how to make powwow chowel, although she pretends to. She also pretends to be American, Indian, and they all disfame. My papa had high cheekbones or whatever. This woman purports to be to her liberal Bernie Sanders communist allies. This big financial genius is, she doesn't understand anything about the Treasury. So, Besson absolutely loves trolling Elizabeth Warren. I want you to listen to this segment. Make America funny again. Check this out. What is going on in the senior senator from Massachusetts office? What do they do all day? Did they sit around and like, you know, sip herbal tea and think about raising taxes? I mean, or smoke a tobacco pipe. I got to quickly get this end, though, because we are our colleague Edward Lawrence, broke the news and put out the letter that you had sent back with the handwritten part that said, happy indigenous peoples day. You put that there. So, so how did we just go down, Mr. Secretary? Was it they gave you the letters? It okay, boss. I think we've got the draft you wanted, right? You said, no, no, no, no, hold on. Let me add something. Well, I always, with my letters, like to add a handwritten note at the end. And, you know, given what I think everyone on this set calls Columbus Day. And look, I've got high cheap bones. All three of you have got high cheap bones. It doesn't make us indigenous people, but that's somehow became the Warren family legacy. You don't want to go with this. Spit it out, damn, my ears. Folks, this guy is just a freaking quote machine. It's a Larry Zeppite's personal notes to Elizabeth happy indigenous people. I got high cheap. I'm sorry, but again, is this am I voting for the funniest guy? I am not, obviously. However, I'm going to vote for people like Besson, who I think are doing a great job at the United States Treasury and its policies. It's probably not bad that they're funny and relatable too. Who tearing up the chat? Speaking of which, folks on it, on a semi-serious note, thank you to all of the patriots out there who have come to our defense, despite the deluge of agit prop humorism. I was the test case and it has failed miserably for a bunch of Pholex Maga people who need to destroy the Trump administration so they can run their own candidate for president. It failed horrendously as we expand on radio to not one, but two shows. The podcast consistently ranks up there at the top of a number of different charts. We're the number one live streamer on Rumble. Listen, self-praise things, but you're part of this too. It's not self-praised. Praise you. We really appreciate it. But the Trump team picks its people wisely. When it makes a mistake, it'll tell you, President Trump's been on my show. He's been great to us. He's been amazing. Talk to him occasionally. Still, I don't bother him that often, but he's an amazing guy and he's got an amazing judge, a talent, Besson, Rubio, Hegseth. It's been just an incredible group. One of his best picks was Caroline Levin. Caroline did an amazing job. I'm going to tell you how high expectations she even surpassed those. In case you missed the news this weekend, President Trump has selected a new press secretary, started today, Kate Zachariah. She will be doing a briefing tomorrow morning. It'll be your first one. You want to see who Kate Zachariah is? Here's a hit on CNN. She's debating Adam Moco. I think he's a mightest touch guy. Listen, I don't like this guy's policies. He's a radical leftist. But I'm going to tell you something. He's actually a very skilled debater. He's not a master debater. Some of you will get that, but he's a skilled debater. He makes radicalism and tyranny sound somewhat appetizing to the uninitiated. All right. However, he had something in store for him when he went on CNN and tried to debate our new press secretary over China. This is the kind of stuff I'm looking for from behind the podium. Check this out. Trump has repeatedly botched this foreign policy. And again, I want to see an America that's strong on the global stage, not one that's isolating Canada. Canada terrorists. Well, Canada terrorists, but I do want you to answer how is he stopped on China? I studied this very hard, but this is one of my biggest reasons I support President Trump is because he's the only president that has gone after China the way he has no other president has done this. And as much as he saves space and gives respect to Xi Jinping, he is extremely tough on China. He seems to be kind of vacillating on our commitments to Taiwan. Do you think that we should protect Taiwan? How is he tough on China? Because Taiwan is a very important international issue. And right now, people are heading into the Senate that don't even know a single thing about Taiwan. He has not a policy position on China. Do you think you keep going back to darling Graham? He's not answering my question. How has he been stopped on China? Specifically, give me, this isn't about Taiwan. This is about Beijing. Taiwan is interconnected. We're getting, we're getting out of it. It's Taiwan not connected directly to China. - The Taiwan issue is, is, uh, of course connected to China but also the policy hasn't changed on Taiwan. I mean there's been stuff that said but the actual policy has not changed Taiwan as of yet hasn't changed in generations for the United States. This guy just ran into a total buzz saw with Katsakura. The guy was stumbling, mumbling, and he's very good at it too. He's not a master. Debater, but he is skilled. Katsakura is a master. Debater. She's very good at this. I've watched some of the clips of her on TV for a long time. I have really high expectations for Katsakura as well. Good luck and Godspeed to you in this new journey. President Trump he rarely makes mistakes. If he does, you know sometimes every team arrivals approach in the first term. He tried to be, you know, generous to people who he thought was critics to maybe get an alternate perspective. They turned around and screwed him. I think his second term. I think we can all agree it's been far better. I don't know why I'm even throwing this in here. This is going to seem, you know I said the beginning of the show. One of the things you have to do is a producer or a content creator when you're talking about politics or sports or elsewhere is you have to make a show sound linear. Like it has to follow a tree. You can't just like randomly read the new, anybody can read the news. Just pull up on Geno or partner. Here's headline number two. Like no one's going to tune in for that. I have no connection to this whatsoever at all. So I'm not going to fake it. It just drives me crazy. Producer Josh is not here today. But he recommended that I watch this show. So I'm always looking for a new show. So I started watching this show and it's, I said to him, I said, Josh, are you sure there's no liberal crap in this show? And he's like, yes, I should have waited for Josh to be, but how are you going to defend yourself to him? He's like, no, no, no, there's no liberal crap. So I'm watching the show. It's called the Diplomat. And I'm like a couple shows and I don't see any like, there's some hints here and there. But there's one scene in this show that drives me freaking bananas. And now I'm like reevaluating my commitment to anything. And I got to tell you like, I'm a Josh, I actually told him about this. So I'm not talking behind his back. He can address it tomorrow. It's like episode four or five, whatever. And they're in the back at a car. And it's about this ambassador to London. They never say to political party. But you can assume it's TV. It's a Democrat. And one of our advisors, the DCM for the mission is like, yeah, man, I used to work on campaigns before they were stolen in the courts by recounts. And I'm like, here we go again. Here we, I can't take this. There are two stories that will drive me crazy that if you ask people on the left, they will swear our true. Number one is that Bill Clinton ran a surplus in the government. It's not true. There's an article out there called the myth of the Clinton surplus. A guy wrote seriously like 20 years ago. It will explain to you. There's no such thing. Dan, who cares? I care. It's just fake and liberals to this table swear to you. It's true that Bill Clinton ran a budget surplus. He did not. It's just made up. I don't know why it drives me crazy. Maybe because liberals fall for stuff all the time. Another one that drives me crazy is that George W. Bush, whatever you think of him stole the election from Al Gore in 2000 that there were these recounts and that Gore was ahead and the Supreme Court shut it down. Folks, it's not true. The TV show gets the whole thing wrong. Here's Google Gemini, Google, not some right-wing outlet. Was there ever a recount in the 2000 presidential election where Vice President Al Gore took the lead over George W. Bush? Liberals get ready to be stunned. No. Al Gore never overtook Bush in any official recount. Ever. It never happened. I'm really sorry. Suckers keep falling for this. But it goes to show you how agit prop left wing propaganda. It just instills itself into the American psyche and the concrete drives and people will swear on their firstborn. It's true. Bill Clinton ran a surplus. The police are randomly murdering unarmed innocent black men in the street by the thousands. Bush somehow stole the election from Gore was trying to steal it from Bush. I'm not even telling you you got a light bush hate board whatever you're doing. Be careful with that. George W. What? What a stop-living. It said no motley. I'm forbidding motley's in the chat. What do you get to hide? I like George W. It's just not true. There was no mud, no, no motley's lit in Jeff. No. Now if I see anyway, if you won the 70s, we're taking the money back of you. No, no, no. Stop with the motley's. Stop it. I am not a tyrant leftist. I am forbidding mud. I'm clearly, this is not working. Not working at all. That was a master debater moment. Even Geese got like the most innocent mind. He's like, is that a store where he's laughing? This is the craziest show on on the internet. It's just totally blue. Now you'll never forget it. There was no recap. My motley band did not work at all. I've never actually seen more motley's ghost to show you. You're like me. Tell me not to say something on the air. What do we say? Jim, what do we do? We say it twice. We do it on a radio all the time. A lot of folks in a radio said, Dan, don't say that. We would say it twice. All right. You know, we pick a comment of the day. It better not be motley's. I'm just telling you, I'm forbidding the comment. I can't. I have no control. You want to see the official rules? Banjino.com/1776. We give away $1,776 to a lucky viewer, listener every week. The comment of the day today is Don Lovo. The fact that Democrats are upset about a trees in this trader killer being killed via live stream, but aren't upset about killing innocent babies tells you everything you need to know. Yes, this is why I am a, this is a single issue vote for me being pro life. Because if you're not alive, the tax rates don't matter. Congratulations, Don Lovo. If we can't protect, you know, human life in the womb and then what's the point in a party? Go ahead, I'm one of the mothers. My monthly ban. That would backfire it spectacularly.
