Transcript of We Pissed Off All The Right People (Ep. 2516) New

All America, all the time. Sit down, buckle up, and get ready for the Dan Bongino Show. Yeah, so yesterday's show pissed off all the right people, and that's great. That is spectacular. There's nothing I enjoy more than ragebot meltdowns telling me, oh my gosh, we're so pissed off and angry. I need you to be pissed off. What are you laughing about? It's true. These guys are It's a— you ever read One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest? You know Nurse Ratched? If Nurse Ratched is proud of you and loves what you're doing, you're probably doing it wrong. I don't want Nurse Ratched to like me. My entire goal right now is to get our compass true north again, away from the people trying to pull it untrue south, okay? I want you to be pissed off. That's the goal. Of course you're gonna be pissed off. Graham Allen texted me about coming on the show in a little bit. Graham Allen's gonna be here as our guest, so don't miss that. We love Graham Allen, and thank you always for rating our show. I don't give a shit that you're pissed off. Actually, I do. I shouldn't say that.

I want you to be mad. Someone leaking out a fake story about a raid while President Trump was overseas trying to fix the world's problems is such an obvious op and scam that there's no point in this show if I'm not gonna call it out. And the fact that the rage bot farms and the foreign bot farms who were involved in this shit were all pissy about it shows you exactly who they are. They are no different than two-bit leftists. And by the way, these leftists out there are telling you who they are, and you should listen to them. I'll show you a clip right at the beginning of the show, but I have some good news for you in the beginning of the show. You know why? It's Friday. It's Friday, and everybody loves Friday. You know why? Because the next day is Saturday, and most people don't have to work. To our military heroes, our cops and firemen and first responders who work 24/7, 365, and don't get a day off, God bless you on Police Week. You know I love you, man. You know, I heard once at a speech I was at a— giving a speech in Alamogordo, New Mexico, and a lady who was a spouse of a former state trooper gets up, and you know what she said?

She said, "The greatest sound in the world is the sound of Velcro at night." You guys get that? Tell me in the chat. I know you law enforcement spouses know what that means. Like, Velcro at night? It's the sound of the body armor. Your husband or wife comes home safely and the body armor— so loud, the Velcro is super thick and it wakes them up. They don't mind that wake-up. They know you're home. Greatest sound in the world. Thank you to all those who serve who don't get Saturday off. But most of us do have tomorrow off. So I've got just a small snippet of one of the best commencement speeches I think I've heard in a long time. You may have seen it yesterday. It's worth your time, the whole thing. I can't play the whole thing, but it's a country singer, Eric Church, who just, man, gave a freaking banger of a speech. He said something really critical. I want to get to that. And then also something that happened overseas yesterday. I haven't seen covered much, light coverage, and I— it's not— it happens all the time. It was on President Trump's trip.

It got a little bit of coverage, but this happens all the time. I'll give you kind of some behind the scenes on that. I don't want you to sweat too much what's going on there. CarShield. Hey, I use my car for just about everything. I'm in it all the time. It's like my traveling office. So when it breaks down that not only cost me money, but it cost me time. And it's a real pain in the butt. And I don't want to think about it. I don't want to worry about that stuff. When your car goes down, it's not just inconvenient, it throws everything off your entire schedule. I've had that moment. You know, you get that strange sound, that, that bell that goes off in the car and it turns into a warning light, which turns into a huge bill. Suddenly you're bracing for this bill you didn't plan for. That's why I'm a fan of CarShield. It's fantastic. I love it. You got to be prepared for this stuff. Having that extra protection takes a lot of stress out of owning a car. Cars are very expensive right now. They used to have a bumper, cost you like $30 to repair the bumper when I was a kid, the metal.

But that's not it anymore. You scratch the bumper, it's like $3,000. CarShield offers low-cost, low-cost month-to-month vehicle protection plans so you're not locked in. They partner with ASE-certified mechanics across the country. They include 24/7 roadside assistance, courtesy towing, and rental car options at no additional cost. It's really a great deal. And the low deductibles really matter when something big goes wrong, because as I told you, nothing's cheap on cars anymore. CarShield has over 20 years of experience, covers more than 2 million vehicles, holds a 96% customer rating and an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau. It's pretty impressive. Drive with zero worries thanks to CarShield. CarShield. Right now, CarShield's offering our listeners 20% off with the code Bongino at carshield.com/bongino.

You may say, damn, why are you all dressed up? Now, people who are new to the show be like, that's dressed up. Dan's shirt is going to get a 10 on the scale today. Biggie Fresh 65 in the chat. Do we have— we haven't done that in a while.

Nicole has not made it. She is really excited, got the lovey-dovey eyes going on there, Nicole. Sorry, not available. I know, I get it. I got a special event. This is dressed up for me. Outside of like weddings or funerals, this is like the best you're gonna get. I got a special event going to later, so a lot going on. So as I said, and I don't wanna just, I don't wanna hammer this too much, but all the right people were pissed off yesterday, okay? Folks, I'm just not gonna let it happen anymore. There is a lot of sabotage going on and we've been successful in exposing it. and the people behind it are freaking out because this is one of the biggest audiences in the MAGAsphere, and there's nothing they can do to combat it. That segment where I just lost it on them yesterday went viral yesterday, and I saw the panic. I saw— you could see it on X, the rage bot meltdown, all the internal saboteurs doing their best to make it go away. You can't make it go away. We won. W for the Dan Bongino Show and the Bongino Army.

We won. I'm sorry you had to drop an L and you got smoked. I know you guys can't live without me, but we can live without you. I know that hurts. I know it bothers you that we constantly— we're only 8 minutes into the show, we got 34,000 people here. I know that bothers you that a stadium full of people are listening to us expose your shit while you're hollering into the abyss. I get it. W's in the chat. We won. We exposed you guys. You look like a bunch of buffoons. Now everybody knows it. And there's no backing down. There's doubling down. That's it. Dubs, dubs everywhere. We just keep racking up the dubs. The administration keeps racking up the dubs and you keep dropping big-time Ls. And we're enjoying every minute of it. I know it drives you crazy. Now to the good news. So I saw that— that is good news, actually. I saw this yesterday. Eric Church, country singer. I got a newfound respect for— I always liked his music. Is it— can you do me a favor, Josh? Look, is that— no, it's key. Josh, look this up. That, uh, what's that new song, that compilation song, Morgan Wallen and Hardy, about the guy— folks in the chat, help me out— is it MacArthur or something?

They got this new MacArthur, right? Is Eric Church in that too? I think he is. He is. Okay. And Tim McGraw too. It's a great song, MacArthur. Can't recommend it highly enough. I got a newfound respect for Eric Church. He gives a commencement speech. Here's one of the parts I thought was best, because it's true, folks. I've had a lot of drama in my extended family over the years, and you always got to remember, like, when the chips are down, a lot of those people loved you when you probably didn't deserve it. Check this out. String 2. String 2 is family, okay? Look out at these bleachers, look around. Somewhere in that crowd is someone who has loved you longer than you've been easy to love. It's true. Someone who saw you at your actual worst, not your public-facing worst. And didn't leave you. Someone who worked a job they didn't love to put a book in your hands you sometimes didn't open. Someone who sat alone in a quiet house and cried the weekend you moved into dorms and wondered, "Have I done enough?" That is family. And the A string is where the music starts to get warm.

Folks, this speech is absolutely worth your time. If you haven't seen it, you should. It has gone nuclear on X and snippets on TikTok and elsewhere. It's worth your time. And I, I love Eric Church's music, but respect, brother. Absolutely amazing speech. And the way he did it with the guitar and the 6 strings, just incredible stuff. Look at that. American flags in the chat. Love you guys, man. I know, I knew you'd like that on a Friday. You know, you get up, uh, you get up on a Friday morning, you want some good news. So, uh, I want to get into some hard news though, because Trump, uh, President Trump is headed back from China after what appears to be a successful visit. Folks, listen, we got to be realistic. We're dealing with our most significant global adversary. President Trump had a couple of goals there: keep us out of nuclear World War III, Understand that China is a part of global commerce. We admitted them into the WTO, not in the Trump administration, but we have to deal with them. There's just no way around it. There's obviously the ever-present threat of them invading Taiwan.

It's not gonna go away because we said so. And the thing about having President Trump, who's a transactional realist, is he gets that. We're not gonna get a lot out of China. They're not gonna get a lot out of us. Sometimes maintaining a status quo while sanding down the edges is your foreign diplomacy. That's just the facts. The fact that he's got the moose nuts to go over there and do it, knowing he's not gonna be able to come out of there with big, huge, bold proclamations is a big deal. I mean, folks, you have to remember, when Reagan was dealing with Gorbachev early on, you know, some of the initial meetings were not a success at all. And he kept going and kept going and kept going at his own political expense. And in the end, finally got what he needed. This is how diplomacy works. It's not me, you know, putting lipstick on anything. It's just the real world. But this happened here. I saw it get a little bit of coverage. So I just thought it was an interesting opportunity to provide some behind-the-scenes color on this. I did 4 foreign lead advances as an agent with the Secret Service.

And I was on a ton of foreign trips as, you know, post and/or shift agent elsewhere. There's always, always conflict with the host country. Let me just tell you what— so something happened in China. Let me just play the clip. Actually, this is the, uh, the press in China, and the Chinese security services there will not let the press leave. They got to get in the motorcade because that's how a lot of these authoritarian countries work. So it got a little bit of media hype. I'm telling you though, this stuff happens all the time. Watch this, this is interesting.

Do you understand that we are in the motorcade with the president?

So we are still not going to go in there. So that's the main concern now, is that the security of our side do not allow you to leave. They are literally waiting. We got to move. I can guarantee you that the Secret Service advance agent who did this advance had already worked this out with the Chinese security services. I guarantee you. You say, "Well, why the confusion here?" Because folks, when you deal with these foreign security services, here's what I noticed. Here, write this down, cash this check, take it to the bank, okay? Or take it to the bank, then cash it. We live in the United States of America, okay? Hello, we get that. We are used to leadership being diffused down. The director of the Secret Service Sean Curran is not there making that decision. So what happens is we diffuse it down. When you're a lead advance agent in the Secret Service and you run the trip, you're not even a supervisor. You're not. You're just— you're a GS-13. You're not a supervisor. But you're allowed, authorized, and encouraged to take the leadership role, just like military folks are, and to do the right thing, just like a first lieutenant in the field.

You don't have to call Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of War, to make every decision. A lot of these authoritarian countries are not like that. They are so used to just the— have to just genuflect on a knee in front of the leaders of the Communist Party that they cannot make a decision ever. And unless someone directly told them in advance, that specific person at that time, you have to do this with them, they won't do it. This happens all the time. So I didn't— I just didn't want it to be a distraction from President Trump's trip. If you got a little bit of media coverage, but I wanted to show you, I can prove it to you. Receipts matter, right? We always bring receipts on the show. Telling you about my stuff is— who cares? Let me show you actuals. This happened when I was an agent. I remember it was— I wasn't on this trip, but this was a huge deal. This was in Chile, and President Bush is down there, and his SAC in charge, uh, special agent in charge of the president's details, right over his shoulder. It's a guy by the name of Nick, right?

Nick is over his shoulder. Nick's a good guy. So Nick's over his shoulder. President Bush goes to walk into this event in Chile, and they try to keep the boss, the head security guy from the Secret Service, out. And President— you know what, just play the media report first. The media report's the best one. This is MSNBC covering this. Happens all the time. Check this out. President Bush had to take matters into his own hands when his security staff was blocked from entering an APEC dinner. Chilean security would not let the president's bodyguards enter with him, so then A pushing and shoving match ensued. When the president heard all that commotion, he strode, as you can see there, back to the door. He reached through those Chileans and pulled his lead agent through to join his entourage. No word on what the president said immediately after as he returned to shake hands with other dignitaries. I'm telling you, this happens all the time. A lot of our folks here who are law enforcement officers in our military, FBI, Secret Service, DEA, you're used to being a case agent. You're used to being an officer in the field making decisions.

Write this person a ticket, don't. Arrest this person, don't. You don't need to call back headquarters and the police chief for everything. These authoritarian countries are not like that. You can have 1,000 conversations with their, their lead advance on the China CCP side or the Chilean guy. It doesn't matter if it's not that exact guy. This happens all the time. Here's one more for you. This was North Korea during Trump 45. The North Koreans over there. And this is Stephanie Grisham, who was the press secretary for a short amount of time. They don't want to let the press even move. I guarantee you, again, this was worked out in advance, but because it's not that guy, here's what happened. Check this one out.

USA!

You see, they're trying to keep him out. This happens everywhere. So bottom line, tie this up. Just be very proud that you're part of the United States of America that respects freedom, that even though we can't stand the press, we respect the freedom of the press because the alternative is even worse. And we just don't do shit like this. We just don't. There's Stephanie Grisham with him. She goes out and rescues him. And by the way, she wound up rescuing a bunch of liberal reporters. Because that's the United States. We would rather have bad press coverage than a communist country and no press coverage at all. That's the way we roll, and you should be proud of that, that we're open to criticism and accountability here, even by a bunch of lying buffoons. You had to go out and rescue them. So don't let it distract you. This happens all the time. It's not a big deal. They could have done the greatest Secret Service advance in US history, and it doesn't matter. These countries do this shit all the time. So Folks, I said to you yesterday, and again, we pissed off all the right people, that this is a time for choosing.

We have a movement going forward that has built something really special, and I'm honored to be a part of it. This MAGA movement is transformative. It's like the Reagan revolution. I mean, I'm only 51. I'm not that old. I don't pretend to be the senior statesman of this movement. Senior statesman of the movement is Donald Trump. It's not me. However, I'm proud to have been a part of this movement 45, uh, what should have been '46 and '47. This movement is like nothing you've seen before. If you go back and look at the pre-Ronald Reagan Republican Party of the, you know, Spiro Agnew and Nixon and, you know, the EPA and Gerald Ford and the, you know, loose monetary policy and the whole idea of the Republican Party, a lot of members of the institutional Republican Party used to be for tax cuts. I mean, excuse me, for tax hikes. They were just soaking the rich nonsense and all this other stuff, this détente bullshit, the détente stuff with the Soviet Union that Reagan threw out the window. You know, a lot of Republicans believed in that too. Oh, just let the Soviets build up.

Don't get them angry. God forbid there's a nuclear war. Reagan was like, yeah, God forbid there's a nuclear war. We're the United States, motherfucker. We're gonna, we're gonna make that, we're gonna outbuild them and we're gonna bankrupt them. Using a defense buildup, and it worked. Reagan changed the whole Republican Party. I'm telling you, like, you would not even recognize the Republican Party pre-Ronald Reagan. You wouldn't even recognize them. They were totally different. Donald Trump has had that same effect on our Republican Party now. He has moved the needle so far from the old kind of weak-kneed establishment managed decline Republican Party into this new aggressive kind of populist movement that's brought in minority voters, working-class voters, and elsewhere. That they're terrified of them. But it is a time for choosing. You have to ask yourself, do you want to be part of it or not? And that's fine. Like, we're a free country. You're not obligated to be part of the MAGA movement. You may say, I want to go back to the old ways of the Republican Party. It's your right to do that. Run for office, raise money. I'm just telling you, I don't want any part of that.

I don't. I'm not really interested in that at all because we're fighting a very organized very pernicious, and very dangerous political opponent. Folks, when they tell you who they are, listen to them. You know, there was this brief moment after the electoral drubbing, Trump 47's victory. There was a brief, and I mean brief moment, it lasted about 3 weeks to a month, where Democrats started to come out and say, guys, some, a limited number, but they did. Maybe this, you know, boys, you know, in the women's room crap, maybe all of this, you know, open borders bullshit, maybe this was a bad idea. And then it totally evaporated. I'm telling you, Brother Dan is telling you here, that is gone. They will never ever run at any time in the near future on a moderate agenda again. The leading candidate right now almost comically for the 2028 nod is Kamala Harris, which is almost, like I said, hilarious. It's like a joke. However, don't discount the fact that she could win. I don't like that stuff. I don't like talks of red wave because it just discourages people from— oh, she's so terrible, I don't need to vote.

No, you do. She actually has a following. It's not huge. It's certainly not Obama's following, but it's enough to cause some trouble. She's the leading candidate on the side. She just lost running on far-left stuff. Here's an appearance she just did. Now she's running on even more radical shit than she ran on last time, proving my point that if you think you're ever gonna run against the JFK or early Clinton, uh, or, or, excuse me, second-term Clinton Democrat, you were absolutely wrong. We've gotta organize now and recognize the opponent, or we're gonna get our asses kicked by really dangerous people. Check this out. No bad ideas. Uh, no bad idea brainstorm is what I'd like to call it. And in that No Bad Ideas brainstorm, we talk about what we need to do and think about doing around the Electoral College. We talk about the idea of Supreme Court reform, which includes expanding the Supreme Court. We invite a conversation about multi-member districts. Let's talk about statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C. These are the things I think that we've got to do. We've got to neutralize these red states from cheating, including blue states expanding their maps.

And all of this, I think, is— is— look, we got to fight fire with fire. These folks are playing to win. We got to play to win. Folks, they're not kidding when they tell you who they are. Listen to them, please. I'm begging you as a friend. Listen to them. They're not kidding. Dumping the filibuster, DC, Puerto Rico statehood, gerrymandering like you've never seen before. You know, ballot harvesting everywhere. Folks, if we lose in the midterms and 2028, it could take 2 decades to get the country back. If it ever gets back, if we ever get back to normal or even close to normal or quasi-normal at all. I want you to understand, like, they're all about the dance. That's all they're not about, actual results. Do you want the results or do you want the dance? Ladies and gentlemen, the Trump administration, if you are on the fence about who you're gonna vote for, has produced a portfolio of amazing results you have on the plate, you can look at before you eat, before the midterm elections. Please do it. If you don't like low crime, if you don't like a low homicide rate, if you don't like a closed border, if you don't like 115,000 jobs in the last— if you don't like that, If you don't like the productivity revolution, if you don't like that, fine, vote Democrat, but at least acknowledge the results.

They're all about the dance and the show. And it's a scary dance and a scary show. No bad idea brainstorm is— Oh yeah, there's bad ideas. There's a lot of bad ideas. Packing the Supreme Court, just randomly adding states as long as they vote Democrat. I promise you, these are bad ideas. I'm gonna take a quick break and I'm gonna get back to some actual results, some stuff I saw yesterday you need to see from the Trump administration so you don't fall prey to doomers, blackpillars, and others, and leftists trying to tell you nothing's happening, 'cause things are happening, and it's our job to get out there to the public what's happening. And by the way, thank you for all the feedback on yesterday's show. I really appreciate it. We played that segment, the member of the band Korn and his testimony about Jesus and church and finding faith, and man, did we get a ton of feedback on that. There was someone in my house when I went home, a friend we work with sometimes, and she was like, "Hey, man, I listened to that live." She's like, "That was for real, man." I said, "Thank you.

Thank you." Listen to yesterday's show if you missed it. Hey, cholesterol's tough, and for many of us, it's genetic. Paul and I recently discovered Dose, a clinically backed cholesterol support supplement that helps target triglycerides, LDL, HDL, and total cholesterol.

Folks, the truth is out there, and no, it's not an X-Files episode. It's really out there. You can do your homework. I like to make it easy for you because a lot of you work really intensely for a living, have kids to raise.

You know, you don't have time to sit around reading, you know, through X all day trying to, you know, aggregate data on crime stats and all that stuff. I totally understand that you got lives to live. That's my job, to put it out there on the show. I saw this yesterday, Michael Ruiz, um, put this out on X. You want this? You want results? You have an election coming up. So the FBI is a Criminal Justice Information Services Division. They just released it because it takes a while to get the 2025 data. You may say, damn, we're a few months into 2026. I know. The problem is the FBI does not invent the data. They get it from local and state police departments, and sometimes there's a lag when it comes in. So we're just getting the complete data set for 2025. Folks, murders and robberies both dropped more than 18%. Now, it's not just a raw number. I want you to pay attention. This is the largest single-year percentage decline since 1937. It may be one of the lowest numbers we've ever seen. The only reason I say may is it was really hard to aggregate data in 1910, 1920.

This may be the lowest homicide numbers we've ever seen, but the percent decline also Is so anyone telling you like, oh, Biden did it? Well, why didn't he have the largest percent decline in his administration? There are people out there on the left who don't want to give President Trump credit. He was the one who did this. You— he's on the ballot. You have to view it that way. He is on the ballot in the midterms. His policies, his lieutenants, his people out there in the Congress who have been hard on crime. It's the largest percentage drop. I know liberals are having a hard time with this. You may say it was trending down. It's never trended down the degree of change by this much ever. What the hell do you think is going on? You think this is just luck? These are actual results. And because these results are being produced, as I've said often, who's public enemy number 2? Because public enemy number 1 is always President Trump. Kash Patel, every time. This story I found hilarious. Remember, uh, Douchecanoe Ken, Fusion Ken Delaney. This guy, do we have that Intercept article where— remember that article with Ken Delaney?

Like, he's already been exposed like a big deep state pawn. Ken Delaney does nothing. This guy, I swear, like, you ever see that movie Billy Madison with the people to kill list? Fusion Ken must have Kash Patel, and it was Steve Buscemi's like putting the lipstick on. That's Fusion Ken. Like, that— he just has this hard-on for Kash Patel because he knows the results that they got to get rid of. They got to get like a tomato can in there, and they can't let President Trump run on low crime because they know that appeals to Democrats too. Here's Fusion Ken's latest one: FBI agent— wait, keep this up on the screen just for a minute. By the way, when he says FBI agents, he doesn't mean these aren't really— these are, these are just cowardly wussbags. And I'm going to say to the agents who are leakers out there and calling this asshole who was part of the Christopher Hurricane thing, I will say again, you absolutely disgust me. I am really glad that many of you are gone. Some of you are hiding embedded like ticks. You're just disgusting filth bags that you know it's against policy to do it and go leaking things to the media, and you do it anyway 'cause you don't give a shit.

Well, listen, I'm really glad that you don't like Kash Patel because we don't want you to like us 'cause you guys and ladies doing this suck. The good agents doing the work, thanks for everything. To these losers, you absolutely disgust me. I really— there's like little slugs that walk around my— I think higher of them than I think of you. They don't— FBI, I'll just say FBI internal losers, uh, say the bureau under, under Kash Patel has been gaming the most wanted list to make the stats look good. So just to be clear, The FBI has a 10 Most Wanted list. I don't know if you know this or not. Almost— there'd been no movement on this list for a long time. So when Cash and I got in there, Ken does— Fusion Ken does— in a way, this is a bunch of disgruntled assholes. When Cash and I get in there, we're like, why can't we find these people? There was one lady on the list. I'm like, we know where she is. Why haven't we done anything about it? Cash got on the phone, made a couple phone calls, and that was it.

Ken Delaney is actually pissed off that because we cleared the list when we got in there so quickly, they had to add more people who then subsequently got caught too. He's actually pissed off about this. Do you guys see Fusion Ken? Andy is pissed off that we cleared the most wanted. If Joe Biden and your Democrat allies in Crossfire Hurricane and others, Fusion Ken, were so good at this, why didn't they clear the freaking list? This— yes, I do. You found it. Thank you, fellas. Fusion Ken, quote, the CIA's mop-up man. LA Times reporter cleared stories with the agency before publication. Who's this story about? It's about Fusion Ken. There it is, Fusion Ken. You understand what's happening? Scumbags inside the government still who have buried, buried themselves in there like ticks hate the fact that the Trump administration is producing results. And this harps back to yesterday's show. So what do they do? They run to the Fusion Ken zeros of the world and they leak insane stupid stories that the dumbass left gobbles up like a Thanksgiving turkey. Man, I can't believe Patel's cleaning that most wanted list out so fast. Really, that's amazing.

What an asshole. This is comical. No recognition whatsoever that the crime and homicides— guys, is that not what the FBI does? It's about crime, like, right? Kind of crime and stuff. Justin's like, a little bit, a little bit. Fusion Ken's not even remotely interested that these are the best results ever in American history. All he's interested is that the most wanted list has been cleared too fast. I swear to you, I'm trying to not talk too much about stuff because I don't want to— I'm— I just can't help it with this asshole. This is really a story for him. However, if you want more dancing If you're into Danson and Kamala Harris and Justin Pearson, if this is your thing and you don't want results like that— clean streets, a closed border, President Trump negotiating to keep us out of World War III— if you don't want that, that's okay. You vote whoever you want. That's okay. You can vote for Danson. Here's what Danson looks like. There are two components to the dancing, okay? Okay, one of them, you got to keep people stupid, okay? Leftists have to keep people stupid. It's why they use the education system not to educate people but as a jobs program.

Okay, so I want to be clear on this. How do you keep Democrat voters distracted away from actual results I just told you and get them to believe low crime is not in their interest? Well, you blind them to it, you gaslight them. You have to keep them stupid, number one. Number two, you have to keep them distracted. And one of the ways leftist Liberal Party folks like Buttigieg and Kamala Harris and this guy, Representative Sean Kasten, another goofball up on the Hill, you say One of the ways these idiots keep you distracted is by constantly injecting race arguments into everything. The good news is no one believes this shit anymore, but here they go again. Did you know, guys, that the United States Supreme Court, they have like KKK hoods sitting in their closet? I was like, wow, that's really gauche. That's terrible. That's a horrible decision. I was unaware of this. Here's Rep. Sean Castenow. Listen to this bullshit.

Chief Justice Roberts has said that we now live in a colorblind society, to which I would ask you all, Does your answer to those questions depend on whether their robe is white or black? Because make absolutely no mistake, the agenda of this Supreme Court and the agenda of the Klan are far too similar.

Supreme Court, the Klan, Klanhoods keep you distracted, keep people stupid. Remember I told you that song, Teach Your Children Well? They teach your children to be stupid. Now showing you— listen, uh, black voters out there listening to the show, welcome. Welcome. We are conservatives. We love you here. Unlike the left that treats you and talks to you like pawns and only cares about the melanin component of your skin. Let me just speak for the Republican Party for a moment. I can't— we don't give a shit. We love you. You're welcome. Nobody cares how much melanin you have in your skin at all. We were the freedom fighters. We were the ones fighting against Jim Crow. That is a proud legacy of the Republican Party, where everyone's welcome and we defend everyone's freedom and liberty. They are not your guys. They're using this Ku Klux Klan Supreme Court KKK hoods bullshit to keep you— or try to keep you distracted and to try to keep you stupid because they don't care about you. Okay, show us some receipts. That's what I'm here for. What has two thumbs and brings receipts? This motherfucker. Here's a Politico article with the— here is a Politico article of the, the institutional Democrats' parties.

Feelings about Black voters. Politico, by the way, otherwise known as Bullshitico, not a right-leaning outlet. This is a quote, folks. I'm not making this up. It's not AI. Politico: a lot of Democrats are willing to sacrifice Black voting power to beat the— to beat the GOP. I thought that— I thought they worry about Klanhood at the Supreme Court. In a new Politico poll— oh, there's a poll— a plurality of Democrats say the party should counter Republican gerrymandering even if it means reducing the number of majority-minority districts. I, folks, I hope you're not falling for this. The Black voters out there who have joined the MAGA movement, it is an honor to have you here. I'm just bringing the receipts right here. That other party, the demon rats, they don't give a shit about you. When you poll them, they tell people they don't give a shit about you. They don't care about majority minority districts. All they care about is beating Donald Trump, even at your expense. They don't care. The receipts are everywhere. These people have lost their mind, folks. There is no dancing on our side. We are the party of results. A lot of those crime numbers, border numbers, those were illegals in your community.

Those was crimes happening in your community too. You want results or you want dancing? Here's what dancing looks like. This is again, keeping you distracted. Did you see this out of Charlotte, North Carolina? There we go. Little bit of dancing. The dancing's important. Keeps people distracted. Remember, it's the reverse. Don't teach your children well. That's what the Democrats want. I saw this story again. I had to check, make sure it's not AI these days, because some of this stuff sounds so crazy even for Democrats. So there's a race to appoint, um, what is it, the Charlotte mayor or something like that? And the NAACP there is like, hey man, we just don't want to take a look at any, any white candidate. You, you said that out loud on camera? I had to check to make sure this was real. Check this out. We replace the black outgoing mayor with a white person. That simple. NAACP Charlotte-Mecklenburg chapter president Corinne Mack refusing to walk back her comments in this Facebook post from Monday. Mack wrote that it is, quote, seriously disturbing for white folks to be lobbying to be Charlotte's interim mayor. City Council is currently searching for someone to serve out the remainder of Vi Lyles' term, who is set to resign at the end of June.

In an interview with Queen City News on Wednesday, Mack argued recent rulings on voting rights and redistricting efforts are evidence of Black representation being undermined and stripped, and that voters in Charlotte have been intentional about having Black representation. And my question to the white folks who are up in arms and outraged: are they outraged about the fact that Black representation is under attack? Are they outraged about the gerrymandering that's happening all over this country?

Martin Luther King is rolling over in his grave thinking about, you know, hearing something like what was said today, um, in that post.

There you go, folks. More dancing, concerned about the melanin component of someone's skin rather than actual leadership in a community that could use it. That's what the dance looks like from a group that pretends it's for the advancement of, quote, colored people. It is not. It is not. The NAACP lost its way a long time ago, a long time ago, and you should not be afraid to call this stuff out. You want to see what not dancing looks like, what getting people reoriented on a compass, true north, looks like? Check out Representative Wesley Hunt just absolutely going off at some of these hustlers. This is just— stop what you're doing. And listen to this, about 40, 50 seconds long, but it's worth your time. Check this out. I'm seeing a lot of talk from my colleagues on the left, too, as we shift toward this reinvigorated talk about Jim Crow and the past of this country. And as someone who is a direct descendant of a slave, as someone whose great-great-grandfather was born on a plantation, I can assure you slavery is over. Jim Crow is dead. When I go anywhere, I don't see any white only signs.

I don't, I promise you. I am a black man that represent a, a white majority district in Texas. The great-great-grandson of a man born on the plantation stands before you today as a proud conservative Republican from Texas, as a believer and follower in Christ, and as a believer in what this country can be if we allow equality for not just Muslim Americans, not just Buddhist Americans, but also Christian Americans like yourself. If you missed that cartoon, that AI cartoon we played in yesterday's show about the farmer who drops the pig in the well and watches the rats jump in, please go watch it, folks. The way the left pushes you and incentivizes you to jump in the well, into the trap that you can't get out of. Is by keeping you distracted and keeping you stupid. Because you cannot stand up the scrutiny when you just say basic things like, "Really? Don't you find it a little bit fascinating as the South became more Republican, there was less and less de jure and de facto discrimination? You don't find that even—" Folks, hustling and dancing is the distraction. It's meant to distract you from this.

This education system they're using as a jobs program is screwing over your kids. It's turned into an indoctrination factory. That's all it is. Donald Trump, um, Linda McMahon, and others are doing their best to clean it up, but it's going to take a generation to just rip out root and branch the indoctrination that's been going on. Make no mistake, our education system is not about education. We'll bring the receipts right now. Here, show us the reading scores. The numbers are right there. Deny them all you want, leftist. The education system is not educating, it's indoctrinating. Here's a, uh, Jean Twenge— I'm sorry if I'm saying your name— reading scores, 3rd graders to 8th graders, 2015 to 2025. Look how far they've collapsed. She writes, this is a national tragedy. We can't read. We're the richest country in the history of planet Earth. We can't read. Look at this, this disgrace. This is the civil rights issue of our time. Look at this debacle. Damn, what about math scores? Surely we're doing better there. No, we're not. We're not doing better there. Here's a tweet by Katie Miller. We love Katie. Most American school districts are performing worse in math today than they were 10 years ago.

This is a national tragedy. Yes, ma'am, it is. And we're spending more money, $41,000 per student in New York, for what? We're flushing your money down the toilet. We're indoctrinating kids. Into dancing and distraction and being good little leftists, and they can't freaking read or do math. Hat tip and wokeness on Twitter. Baltimore spending $25,000 per year per student, $2 billion up from $16,000 in 2017. The outcome, the outcome is nothing. The outcome is worse. Zero results. Negative results. Student attendance down. SAT scores down, dropout rate up, chronic absenteeism up, graduation rate slightly ticked up, probably because they've lowered standards. That's it. Everything else is getting crushed for dramatically more money. This is an indoctrination factory. Now I want you to watch this video, uh, Hat Tip Jubilee on this, where they sit two people down at a table, they debate. If you're listening on Apple and Spotify, it's a Black woman and a Black man debating about the issues du jour. I only bring up skin color because the left, that's their thing. They cannot have traditionally voting Democrat constituencies not be distracted by bullshit and start to focus on the results. I want you to watch the woman in the debate who's the liberal, and it was the other— Matt Nuclear is his name.

Hat tip, Matt Nuclear. He does a great job here when he confronts her with facts on Black-on-Black crime. Which is another national tragedy. Watch how just mad she gets confronted with the receipts. This is what happens when you spend your whole life dancing and all of a sudden the applause stops and you actually have to say something in front of the audience. This is what it looks like. Check this out. I agree that reparations are necessary. I think the most important thing that's necessary right now for the Black community would be the stopping of violence, especially Black-on-Black violence. I don't see how reparations are going to solve anything. You can give Everyone here, like a $50,000 check, especially people that are in the streets who are committing violent crimes consistently, a $50,000 check, it's not going to fix anything. It's not going to increase the median household income in the next 10 years by 10% or 20%. I'm not sure where your education came from, but they lied to you. Stats don't lie, though. Are you acting right now? Do you really believe this? I'm telling the truth. There's no, there's no systemic racism that I've experienced here in America.

What system is racist? I think the only racism we've actually seen Recently, systemic racism we've seen is the application of systemic racism against white people. The University of Western Washington, for example, has been trying to segregate dormitories using Black-only dormitories because Black people feel safer amongst each other, but they're more likely to kill each other than white people are ever to kill them. That's just the truth. You have King Von rapping about killing other Black men. Why should I think that the white man is the oppressor when Black men are more likely to kill me? Oh my God, this is scary. You need to think about me as your mama. Do not talk to me in that fashion. So let's check that now. Notice it's all about the dance and the act, but no actual comeback to that young man spitting facts there. Nothing. Where'd you get your education from? Gee, I don't know, books? Like, reality? You see the frown lines on her face? She's so upset about what he's telling her because it's true. Folks, we're here for you. Don't engage in this suicidal empathy bullshit. Gad Saad has a book out about suicidal empathy.

I saw him on Fox this morning. Ladies and gentlemen, the thing about suicidal empathy, you know, treating people who've been just the boot of the government neck, destroying urban communities, the Black community, elsewhere, through just absurd, you know, government overregulation, the lack of policing in their communities. This is all from what's been empathy, like suicidal empathy. The thing about suicidal empathy— and I saw this Daily Mail report about this the other day— the thing about suicidal empathy is that it's— if you're a victim of a crime— this New York City woman declined to press charges against a subway shover who shoved them on the tracks because, quote, she didn't want to put another Black man in jail. Weeks later, he allegedly killed a retired teacher at its station. Folks, it's not about you. You have to make hard decisions, and empathy as a disguise here— it's about putting others in jeopardy doing it. This is why you have to focus on results and put the emotions aside and cut the dancing bullshit. Education, pulling your kids, you have to just pull your kids out of this. If this system is indoctrinating them, you have to homeschool them, find a different school, get them out of this 'cause it's gonna be hard to rescue them.

My kids have been good, my two daughters. I've stayed on top of it for a long time. But make sure you know what they're doing in their schools. Make 'em watch this video. This is a short clip from John Stossel. Stossel does great work on this stuff. This is a short clip on socialism, which despite its 100% success rate of failing, just continues to infect our school system versus capitalism. Notice how the emotional arguments always work for socialism. You know, we gotta take care of people who are poor and all. Yeah, yeah, great, we do. The problem is socialism doesn't do that. It makes people poor. And while capitalism will make certain people richer, the poor folks in a capitalist system will always be richer than poor people who are being tortured in a socialist system. Check this out. Capitalism, unlike socialism, is voluntary. Transactions happen only if both buyer and seller think they gained something. Like a pretzel. We see this in every transaction. After I paid for this pretzel, we both said— Thank you. Thank you. Two thank yous. Because we both got what we wanted. The socialists attack billionaires, saying the rich take from workers because— We have a finite amount of money.

You know, Jeff Bezos has what, $100 billion? Yeah, his wealth is making a lot of people poor. But his wealth isn't making other people poor. That finite amount of money myth is the essential fallacy in the attack on capitalism. There isn't a finite amount of money because capitalism creates wealth. For thousands of years, everyone but nobility was poor. Then, some countries tried capitalism and wealth skyrocketed. When governments allow private property, and people are allowed to buy and sell things freely, everyone is better off. The socialists don't understand these gains. They say: No one ever makes a billion dollars. Hmm. You take a billion dollars. Hmm. Her ignorant audience applauds. But billionaires don't take a billion dollars from other people. When markets are free, they can only get rich by offering us something we think is better than what we had before. Folks, I'm begging you as a friend, please educate your kids. They are being fed this syrup of Ipecac in the education system that has no desire to educate but to indoctrinate your kids, and it's up to you to stop it. Every single time you have an opportunity to teach your kids about the dangers of big government, collectivized, centralized power, do it.

Do it. Every single opportunity you can take, take it. Or else you're gonna wind up with something like this. Do you guys remember this old MSNBC ad? This is the doctrine of the left. Your kids or their kids. No, no, they actually said it. This was an ad that ran for MSNBC. It was a while ago, I don't know, 5, 6 years ago, I don't know. Time's all blending in these days in my 50s. However, this— listen to the words of this where they actually say it. This is who they are. No, no, your kids are your kids. That is as period, full stop as you're ever going to get. Check this out. We have never invested as much in public education as we should have because we've always had kind of a private notion of children. Your kid is yours and totally your responsibility. We haven't had a very collective notion of these are our children. So part of it is we have to break through our kind of private idea that kids belong to parents or kids belong to their families and recognize that kids belong to whole communities. Once it's everybody's responsibility and not just the households, then we start making better investments.

No, kids are not about belong to the community. Your kids belong to you. That is a way of diffusing responsibility to others. I love how she says axiomatically true tautological things too, like, well, we all have a responsibility. Yeah, of course. They don't belong to you. This is— remember that Hillary Clinton book, It Takes a Village? No, it takes you. It takes you. Show them clips like this one from Elon, back from Lex Friedman's show from a couple years ago. Here's Elon talking about how wonderful and great a country this is. This is the kind of stuff we have to impart upon our kids all the time. Leave them in this education system where they can't read, they can't do math, The expenditures on them are— they take your money, they spend endless amounts of money teaching kids how awful the United States is. Really? If the United States is so awful, why don't we have like the 51st, 52nd, and 53rd state in like France, Spain, and Europe? Despite the fact that after World War II, we could have taken everything, everything, but we didn't. Matter of fact, we left their dead bodies behind defending them.

Why didn't we do that? The answer is because there's never been a country as powerful ever and as benevolent as ours. Check this out. A guy who understands the value of economic freedom and liberty. Here's Elon Musk on Lex Fridman's show. It's a couple years old, but it's worth your time. Check this out. The good news, the history of China suggests that China is not acquisitive, meaning they're not going to go out and invade a whole bunch of countries. Now, I do feel very strongly So that's good, I mean, because a lot of very powerful countries have been acquisitive. The US is also one of the rare cases that has not been acquisitive. After World War II, the US could have basically taken over the world and any country. We got nukes, nobody else got nukes. We don't even have to lose soldiers. Which country do you want? And the United States could have taken over everything at will, and it didn't. And the United States actually helped rebuild countries. It helped rebuild Europe, helped rebuild Japan. This is very unusual behavior, almost unprecedented. The US did conspicuous acts of kindness, like the Berlin Airlift.

You know, it's always like, well, America's done bad things. Well, of course America's done bad things, but one needs to look at the whole track record, folks. And you get buffoons like that Robert Reich guy, this liberal communist talking about how, you know, billionaires, they must have taken it from everybody else. He puts his tweet out, gets community noted into the ecosystem. Angel Christine Patriot in the chat, F you, lady. My kids are my kids. You're damn right. You're damn right. Put up that tweet by Robert Rice. This guy got community noted into the Phantom Zone. They just make this stuff up, folks. They just make it up. There are 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: profiting from a monopoly, insider trading, political payoffs, fraud, and inheritance. Don't believe the self-made myth. Well, community notes came in for the win here. Research shows most billionaires accumulated wealth by founding and building successful companies. A University of Chicago study found nearly 70% of the 2011 Forbes 400 started their own business. There you go, from the top ropes to people's elbow. Educate your kids, man. They are obviously axiomatically the future. We're not going to have a maha or MAGA movement going forward if we don't rescue our kids from some of these hellhole indoctrination factories.

Speaking of a maha moment, you know I'm a big health hacker. I love it. I have to be. I'm always worried about my health. I love this stuff. I think it's a huge portion of the Republican Party going forward. The Democrats, by the way, did you guys notice how that whole Democrat liberal, like, body positive movement, you know, people were like obese, which is not healthy, folks. It's not. I'm sorry. I don't care if they're telling— whoever's telling you that is just lying to you. It's just not true. They were all body positive, and then GLPs came out And now all of a sudden you get all these people talking about body positivity, losing all this weight. They go, let's just throw that out the window now. Just take the shot and everybody— what happened? What happened to that? I love our Maha Moments. This was a really good— oh wow, look at that! We got— you guys got a graphic for this? These guys are surprised. Check this out, the Maha Moment. They've got like a— who did that? Was that an Andy special? Look at Andy, producer Andy, taking it to the— taking it to the bank on that one.

Good job, buddy. You earned your paycheck this week. Very well done. This is your maha moment. You know, I'm a big fan of Dr. Rhonda. She had a guest on the show. They were talking about— again, check with your doctor. You may have some orthopedic problems. Seriously, like, this is— these are not for rookies or anything. One of the best things you can do for your body in our maha moment of the day is just to hang from a bar. Hang from a bar. Really? No, I'm not kidding. I have terrible shoulders. It has been the greatest thing for me. Get that spine lengthened out. Work yourself up from 10 seconds to 30 seconds to a minute to 2 minutes to 3 minutes. It is the easiest thing you can do, and it is so, so good for you structurally, orthopedically. Check out Dr. Rondo on this in our Maha Moment. Check this out. Hang from a bar. If you can hang 3 minutes a day and work on— that's such a great thing to do. Why? Good for your neck, good for your back, good for your shoulders. Right. Just, we just, we tend to find that people who can hang have less shoulder pain, less neck pain.

Okay. It's a fundamental position. And what we're really doing, we're hanging 3 minutes, 3 minutes in total. What we're really doing when we're hanging is an isometric, and we're just telling our brain these are really important positions to be in. And that hanging, really popularized by Ido Portal, was the first person to be like, let's aggregate hanging. We start to see that Shoulders hurt less, back works better, neck functions more effectively because we're just spending time in these end ranges. You don't like to hang? Let me introduce you to downward dog. Downward dog is another version of spending a lot of time with your arms over your head. And if you've ever gone to yoga class, you spend like 2 and a half years in downward dog for a reason, because it's a really important position. Hard Times 75 in the chat says, does hanging out at the bar count? At the bar? Um, I don't think so, but I bring that up, Hard Times 75, because unintentionally you segued us nicely into my next Maha Moment piece here. Who? Which guy? Coho Run, stay healthy, only drink all-grain beer. Get your fiber and vitamin.

Hard Times 75, no, hanging out in the bar doesn't count. But this may be a little controversial, okay, what I'm about to say for the Maha Moment. You may say, Dan, the Maha Moment, where are you going with this? This. Put up the tweet about alcohol consumption with kids. Listen, ladies and gentlemen, I— all right, this— I haven't owned a bar. My family growing up, Gibby's Bar, 64th Place Myrtle Avenue, Queens, New York, right near Liberty Park. Grant Bailey on X: huge collapse in drinking amongst high schoolers. Okay, well, that's good. If you're underage, don't be drinking. It's illegal and it's not good for you. I just want to be clear on this, okay? Because people ask me, Dan, you know, you say on Friday night you'll have a couple glasses of wine with Paula or whatever. I do. Why do you do that? You're a health guy. Because folks, mental health, you got to earn your weekends. That's the way I look at life. Earn your weekends. Bust your ass Monday through Friday and enjoy yourself Friday night or Saturday. I try not to do 2 days, 1 day only, but I'm living my life to build memories and enjoy myself.

And the only thing that concerns me, not about high schoolers, that's good, they're not drinking. Alcohol is a poison. Make no mistake, the dose matters. Obviously it is a poison. Anyone telling you otherwise, oh, it's got some health benefits, is on net lying to you. It's not true. Okay. But ladies and gentlemen, it is a social lubricant. And as long as you're responsible with it, you're not stupid around it, you don't get out of control. The idea that having a couple drinks with some friends, get yourself an Uber, a Lyft, a driver, get a driver for the night, have someone pick you up. The idea that we all need to live our lives like terrified of the toxin around every corner, that's not, I don't believe, a maha moment either. Making America healthy again is like, hey, live your life, live responsibly. You know, you want a burger once in a while, enjoy one. You know, just the rest of the week, make sure you kind of stick to a plan or discipline. But the alcohol consumption stuff, I just say on that, like, A lot of these kids who, you know, turn 21 and 22 and had just like a cool night out with the bar, at the bar, under control, hanging out with their friends, you know, as we say, the social lubricant, right?

Maybe they weren't so comfortable and eased up a little bit. They're not doing that anymore. Sitting home, they're playing video games. Not knocking video games, but they're on their phones all day. And what do you have? You have like unbelievable levels of teenage and young adult depression, people who don't know how to talk to people anymore. I gotta tell you, I'm not sure that that is an all-net positive thing. I know it's a controversial take. It is a poison. But people ask me, am I going to be a fraud? Yeah, I'll have a couple glasses of wine. You know why? I have fun with my friends. And just be cool about it. There's my PSA for the day. I'll take a quick break and we're going to get to Graham Allen. Please don't miss— he's got a book coming out, Stand Fight Win. Support Graham, he's a great guy, has an amazing show on Rumble.

One of our favorite guests, a recurring regular here, our good friend, a good friend, Graham Allen has a very popular show on Rumble. Look him up. Graham, like the graham cracker, Allen, A-L-L-E-N. You'll find him there. He is rocking that slot. He's always kind enough to raid our show on Rumble. We appreciate it. Graham, welcome back to the show.

Thanks for having me, Dan, and, and the honor is mine to be here on the Podfather's, uh, show. It is always, it is always a pleasure.

That's very nice of you. Hey bud, just before we get to the interview, uh, skillet. I don't remember that. For those listening on Apple and Spotify, if you're missing the video of the show, which is exclusive to Rumble, Graham has over his right shoulder a skillet. I haven't seen a skillet thing that nice in a long time. Where'd you get that from? That wasn't there last time. Yeah.

So, so, so Skillets, good friend of mine, John Cooper and all of them. And so they actually gave me— this is a platinum plaque. This is what a platinum plaque looks like. And they were kind enough to put my name on here, presented to Graham Allen. And, you know, I always thought I was going to be a rock star when I was a kid. And obviously that didn't happen. And I got into the podcasting space. So, you know, yeah, I finally have a platinum plaque, and so it's pretty cool. So I added it to the, uh, the set here.

You're like me, man. I love— I, I just don't have the looks or the musical talent to be like a rock star. I used to, when I ran for office, you know, and I'd sit at train stations and wave to people, they'd say, who are you? I say, Dan Bongino. I said, it's like Bon Jovi without the looks, the money, or the musical talent at all. And I'm telling you, like, the, the race we almost won— almost doesn't really count. You have no idea, on Election Day I would be at a polling location, they'd be like, yeah man, I remember you from the metro stop. I remember you, you were the Bon Jovi without the looks. And I was like, damn, that actually worked. So I love music. I think it's kind of like your key to the spirit realm. I mean, I go to concerts all the time and with my wife that we've had some very like deep spiritual moments there, man. There may have been a little bit alcohol involved in some of them, but when there's a live music band going on, right, right, you, you've been there, you know, and they're rocking it, like, it's just a weird feeling.

It's like an out-of-body experience. I, I love music, man, so I noticed that in background. So big hat tip to Skillet. So you have a book coming out available for pre-order now. We'll be chatting about, uh, September 1st comes out, but please pick it up on pre-order now. Graham's a, a a good friend to the show and a patriot. It's about standing, fighting, and winning. The book is called "Stand, Fight, Win." But one of the things I know you address and that we've been addressing over the last few days is there— and you've been all over this on your podcast too, which I'm very proud of you for doing, 'cause it's really easy to fall into like the, you know, the current thing, NPC mode, and you don't do that— is the doomers in our tent. This is a very, very real problem. I know it's exhausting to talk about, But you've got a bunch of these people, you all know who they are. They're pretending to be part of our— some of them are now admitting they're Democrats, by the way. So like, you know, hello, Captain Obvious. But they're not part of our movement, Graham.

They are here to sabotage our movement. And to them, it's all about the dance and the performance. And they ignore all of the unbelievable results of the Trump administration. I'm glad to see a guy like you calling it out.

Well, I mean, and you as well, Dan, you know, me and you have many conversations off camera about these things. I actually had a conversation on— with Jeremy Boreng just this week about this very thing, that there is this group of people that infiltrated our movement, wolves in sheep's clothing, if you will, that I believe now were never not leftist in the first place. But what's happening is, is this— it's this culture of nothing's ever good enough. Dan, you see this all the time. The amazing things that you did in the FBI. Cash Patel, everybody, nothing's ever good enough. Well, you deported this many people. Well, you should have deported that many people. Well, we got this done. Well, you should have got this done. Oh, well, we locked the border down. Oh, well, you should have, I don't know, destroyed the border completely so nobody could ever jump across it. I have no idea. Alligators in the water with laser beams. Like, it doesn't matter. No matter what we do, it's never going to be good enough. And I've been a really big proponent of this. I talk about it in the book that as commentators myself, we probably didn't do a good enough job of pushing the reality to the American people that good policies, once enacted, aren't instant and it doesn't happen within seconds of things.

There are things that President Trump has done, is doing, and will continue to do that future generations will feel the benefits from. That they don't necessarily see right this minute. And these, these bad actors in our movement are using that. The fact that they know that these are good policies, they know that the president's killing it. They know that the reason that China just did a grand parade dance for President Trump is because he has their metaphorical nuts in a vise right now with the Strait of Hormuz. 50% of their oil goes through there. President Trump, that is That is the most 8D chess move I've seen in a long time. No one's talking about it. Why? Because they're talking about, well, right now the oil companies are making gas high. So, oh, this is why Trump betrayed you. This is why all these people betrayed you. Dan Bongino, Graham Allen, they're feds. They're paid shills to do this and that because they're trying to destroy what we fought so hard to get to. And we're right at the cusp, man. We're right at the cusp of— this is the point. This is the inflection point.

This is why the midterms are so important. If we lose these freaking midterms, every bit of the rock that we have pushed up the mountain is fixing to roll right back on top of us. And it is— it makes me sick. It makes me genuinely angry at these people. And we have to keep pushing back against it.

Graham, I'm seeing it. We're talking to Graham Allen. His new book, preorder now, is called Stand, Fight, Win. Please check it out. Support these patriots. Graham, I'm starting to see, and then this is not kind of like utopian Pollyanna-ish nonsense where you like try to manifest things into real. I believe in that. Think good things and good things happen. However, that's not this. I'm starting to see a really significant backlash against this as people start to, thanks to guys like you and others and Jeremy and others who have been calling this out over and over. That the group of people falling into the doomer black pill class is shrinking dramatically to just shriekers at this point because the ops are getting just so obvious. I'll give you a perfect example. I absolutely was like laser focused on the COVID coverup case during my time in government. The results are starting to come out now. I told people this was an open case. You know, everybody knew it was an open case. Now you're starting to see some results. We'll let it play out in the justice system. Everybody's innocent till proven guilty. But this was like a results-oriented thing I get into with President Trump goes overseas.

The CIA directors in Cuba, they've got the future of the world in their hands. I mean, this is not me being dramatic. You know, you know what's going on in Department of War and elsewhere. China is an existential threat to the United States in the actual sense of the word. President Trump's over there and you got this fake story about like a CIA raid at the DNI's office from a leaker. And I'm telling you, like, I was expecting, even though I don't give a shit, I was gonna call it what it was. I was expecting like an outside of the rage bot backlash. And it was not there. It was only the rage bots because everybody, all the comments, the serious ones were like, Yeah, man, that does seem like kind of weird. Like that didn't happen and the leak happened with President Trump. But that seems like sabotage because it was.

Yeah, that, that was an unfortunate one. Obviously, we know all of the people that were involved in that whole thing. I think I always try to do to the best of my abilities what, what you have taught so many of us. It's to hold. And it's to wait on the actual facts that come out. And it is a— it's a hard thing to do at times. But, but even that to me was one of those situations where I didn't believe it. I didn't think that we were at that thing yet where the CIA was raiding on American soil another intelligence community, all of those things. But again, it goes back to what we're talking about. There is now this brain rot, rage bot psychosis to where Yes. Are conspiracy theories real? Yes, they are. But what we have going on right now is giving conspiracy theorists kind of a bad name at this point. We have mass brain psychosis that everything is a huge deal. Everything is a lie. Everything is a cover-up. Everybody's out to get us. Are there bad shadowy figures inside of D.C. government? You know as well as I do that the answer to that is yes, they often look like career GS schedule federal employees that have been there through all kinds of different administrations that are there to sabotage.

They're there to slow roll. They're there to not give you all the information that you're asking for when you ask for it. I saw it with the secretary time and time again. I can't speak for you, but I'm sure you saw it as well. That is actually what we're fighting against. In the grand scheme of things. But then we have all of these people that live on the internet that that's all they want to do. And what pisses me off the most is people will say, oh, Graham, your numbers are going down, or, oh, Dan, your numbers are going down. Well, because we're actually— we actually took time off to go actually attempt to do something, to go put sweat equity in, blood, sweat, tears, to go try instead of just whining and complaining and moaning all the time. And they're using that as an excuse now to— they're using it as an excuse to brainwash the American people even more, to make them feel like they are victims. And no matter what they do, it's never going to be good enough. And we're never going to save this great country of ours, or we're never going to keep it afloat.

And that's— that's a lie. It's not true. It is a battle every single day, and you got to show up and clock in every single day. And I do not buy into this victim mentality. I do not buy into this, oh, no matter what we do, Israel or whoever it may be is over us, and no matter what happens, we're doomed. I'm over it. I can't stand it. And, and, you know, that's kind of what I talk about in the book is, you know, this isn't your normal rah-rah book. This is a very real book about what I saw on the inside. It's a very real book. Charlie was assassinated while I was writing this book, and it changed the book like that overnight, because what, what I wrote about in the book, I said, this is where we're headed, the political assassination culture, all this. This is where we're headed. And then unfortunately, and I wish that I had been wrong, but it came true. This book is about the fact of Dan you know this, you talk about it all the time. You're so good about it for people like me and your viewers.

We got to win '26. We got to win '28. We got to win '30. We got to win '32. You can't just win one time and think that it's over. The war is never over for our country. The battles are every single day. And I'm so thankful for people like you that actually speak that actual truth, because So many people don't. They use emotion to manipulate the voters to get what they want, and then they move on and they cast them aside.

You know, Graham, every movement goes through this. And what I'm most proud of is this MAGA movement, not necessarily a Republican Party. I mean, I'm registered as a Republican because it just doesn't make any sense not to. You know, I tell people all the time, simple political tactics, right? Tactics. Forget— pull your emotions out of it completely. Not registering as a Republican. Republican, even if you really dislike the institutional establishment Republican Party. It makes no sense because then everyone else gets to vote twice in a primary and a general and you don't. So you're not— it doesn't matter. You can register whatever you want. You can register as an alien and vote in the alien party. Like, it doesn't make a difference. Like, a resident of Mars, at least you get to vote twice. So I tell everyone, register Republican. It does— or, you know, Man, even if you really can't stand— register Democrat, vote for the most conservative Democrat, and then go vote Republican in the general. At least register for something. Don't neuter yourself, right? But you've got this growing movement of people that just want everyone to withdraw from the system. And you had kind of hinted to it before.

They do it, and it's very clever, actually. And it takes away from the actual conspiracy theories that were true. Most of the stuff that was portrayed as a conspiracy theory around the 2020 election, a lot of it turned out to be true. You know, there was a lot of ballot harvesting. Pennsylvania did change the rules. That wasn't a conspiracy theory, that was a conspiracy fact. The COVID stuff, the whole mask bullshit, you know, the suppression of information about the origins of the virus, that wasn't a conspiracy theory, that was a conspiracy fact. Russia collusion, Arctic frost, you know, all of that stuff was exposed when President Trump got in office, and we brought that to Congress, 30,000-plus papers. But when we start getting into other stuff and this growing political violence, like on the left, you know, we're really losing focus. And we got to be careful because these leftists are— I'll just kind of leave this here. I'm sorry, I know I'm going on a little bit, but Graham, the leftists used to, after, say, President Trump was shot and Butler or Steve Scalise, they'd usually wait like 4 or 5 days before they went crazy again.

Did you notice they're not even doing that anymore? The White House Correspondents' Dinner, the next day they were like, it's a setup, it was all a big conspiracy, nothing happened. They don't even care anymore. Like, we're in a really dangerous spot right now.

Yeah, well, yes, I just talked about it on the show this morning. You've got people like Candace Owens saying that, yeah, you know, that, that, that Erica Kirk was in on it, uh, you know, faking the video and all of this. And she's like, I've got an email, but the email was deleted. So she literally says the words, I retyped the pertinent information and that's what I put out there. And these cult or bots or whatever you want to call them, foreign interest campaigns, whatever it may be, they are taking that like it is gospel right now. Because to your point, No one cares. There's no more rules. There's no more nothing. I saw a horrible hit piece on Andrew Colvette. Some fat nobody mom lover in his basement under the thing of Project Constitution comes out and says, this is an unconfirmed rumor. Well, why are you posting it in the first place? And then he plasters Andrew's wife all over the internet saying Andrew's wife has filed for divorce against Andrew Colvette. True. None of it's true at all. But that's where we are. We're at a point now where families are no longer off limits.

Who cares about truth? Who cares about actually getting your facts right? Who cares about confirming things? Doesn't matter. It's all about the views. It's all about the clicks. And it's all about the money. And it's disgusting. And what they're trying to do, I do believe there is a massive push by these people that we're talking about to mess us up in the midterms. The Supreme Court handed us a huge victory. We got RINOs in the southern states. We got to deal with 100% about this racial gerrymandering stuff. We got an opportunity to pick up seats. But if you disenfranchise voters to go vote, none of that matters. This is all part of the play. And then I— they will— once Democrats, if Democrats are successful in the midterms, these same people that are saying vote Democrat or don't vote or this, that, watch them come right back around again for '28 because that's where the money will be. And we can't allow that to happen. That's why every election matters. That's why every single time you have a chance to go to the ballot matters. The 10, 10, 10, just like you talk about all the time, Dan, like you got to go do what you got to do.

You got to put the work in. And I'm just thankful for people like you, Dan, like that, that are going out and speaking the truth every single day. And that's why I wrote the book to hopefully maybe give a spark to people that the war's not over. But the truth is the war for our country is never going to be over. So we have to fight every single day in every single election.

The book is called Stand, Fight, Win by Graham Allen, available for preorder now. It's a call to action before the midterms. You know, Graham, we've got midterms coming up and, you know, I'm glad you just said that, that— and I know, forgive me, folks, I'm in no way trying to speak down to anyone at all. But there is kind of a sense out there sometimes, like, you know, we won and like, this isn't a race where you cross a finish line and the race is over. It's almost like one of those death endurance races where you run until people— it's like that Stephen King movie who I can't stand, but The Long Walk. Like you just have to keep walking until everybody just naturally died. Like that's what politics is. Like there is no end to the walk until like we're all off this earth and God picks our time. So like winning is a process, it's not a result. Does that make sense? And I think once Trump won for what I believe was the third time, there was a perception out there by us.

It was the third time.

It was, yeah. Right, by like a small group of people. Like, this is over. But you and I know, having worked in government, man, the Democrats and weak-kneed Republicans, Graham, they've been ripping this government to pieces with their embeds. I mean, the Pentagon, the Justice Department, HHS, Medicare, CDC, even international, like WHO. They've been doing this for decades, folks. It is gonna take this midterm, it's gonna take the next presidential, The next midterm, I think realistically, we're about a quarter of the way home to letting that cement dry. But it's a matter of time. Judges retire. Some of the stuff we just can't do anything about. Judges have lifetime appointments, and you gotta wait for them to retire. I think if we were to win the next presidential and stay solid in the midterms— we don't need overwhelming majorities, but enough to get stuff through— I think we could really put a footprint on society and change it for the better for a generation.

Well, I agree, because by that point, to your, to your point, if we win in the midterms and we win in '28 in the presidential, by that point, all the things that have been laid out and put in place, enough of the American people will be benefiting from it and seeing it. And then at that point, it's a snowball effect. It's the momentum of it all. What the Dems and the evil are trying to do right now is they know that what President Trump is doing is working. They know what it leads to, just like what you and Kash did, or Kash is doing at the FBI. They know what you're doing. Secretary Hegseth, all of them, they know what they're doing is leading to a better government, a better America. Smaller government in a lot of places, which no one talks about, by the way. They know that it's working. Their goal is to try to convince the American people that we didn't actually win in '24. Oh, we thought we won, but Trump wasn't what we thought he was going to be. So now we got to burn all that down and we got to go over here in this way.

That's what they want. It's what the enemy wants. The enemy wants us to divide. The enemy wants the American people people to be disenfranchised, to show back up to the voting booths because they know that what's been done will work. And they know that if it goes long enough, the American people will see it and they won't want to go back. Well, the sane ones at least. And that's what we have to fight for. You're right, that is an endurance test and we have to keep going until we are too tired to do it anymore. And then we hand the baton over to the next generation. To keep it going. It's like that Olympic thing where they hand a little baton off to everybody else to keep the race going. We run and we run and we run till we can't do it anymore. And then hopefully we've got the next generation that's young and healthy and they can keep going and they hand it off as well.

Yeah. My good friend Ginny Thomas, who's just fantastic. She used to say all the time to us as activists in this group we were in, she would say, you know, You're the leaders we've been waiting for. And tell that to everyone else too. Like, it's you. You are the— like, everyone listening, don't wait for someone else to be the next man up. It's you. There's no invitation necessary to this party. It's not a closed wedding. Like, this is your party too. If you have voted, donated, knocked on a door, run for office— I don't care if you've thought about voting, if you're a registered Republican, this is yours too. It's not Graham's. It's not mine. We're just a small piece of this thing. I have a microphone, that's great, but I can only vote once. You know, I'm not a Democrat. So I only vote one time. Like, this movement is yours. You're the leaders we've been waiting for. And I'm really starting to see that though, like I said, but this backlash against the Doomerism and just the insanity that's taken over the left. I think, you know, a lot of people think this MAGA movement is gonna die with President Trump.

I don't. Hence my next question. I think our bench is just incredible. I mean, between Vance and Rubio, uh, and isn't— I mean, he's got an administration full of just studs, you know, Stephen Miller and others doing just an amazing job out there. You know, Kash is cleaning up over there. You got Ratcliffe over at CIA. You've got really great people over there. Our bench is great. Even in Congress, you got Brandon Gill. You know, we've got a whole a whole bunch of just really good, high-quality senators over there too. Graham, their bench is just shit. It just is. I'm not telling you because I don't want to, like, let's not get ahead of ourselves, you know. Remember we said this about, you know, before Obama got on the scene too? Ah, the bench is weak. And then Obama comes out of nowhere. But their bench right now is thin. Kamala Harris, Buttigieg, like Newsom. I'm not telling you they can't win. I'm just telling you these are really, like, fatally flawed candidates.

Yeah, no, they are. My biggest concern through all the research and polling things that I've gone through is, you know, the younger generation is more involved in voting than any of us can ever remember. And, you know, you saw it with the Momdani stuff in New York. You see all this. I don't think that necessarily the Dems need this strong candidate. I think that they're going to try to use the information space, in the optics war. We saw it with COVID I mean, you've got all of this nonstop craziness about viruses and all of this breaking out again. I don't know. My spider sense starts to tingle a little bit when I start to see all of those things. But our bench, on your— to your point, is loaded. I think our bullpen is the strongest bullpen. I'm a Braves fan. The Braves are killing it right now. I think, I think our bullpen is great on our side. To your point, we've got J.D. Vance, we've got Marco Rubio. You got your Pete Hegseths, you got— you've got all of these amazing people that are doing—

shame on me for— I mentioned Pete the other day. I mean, obviously you and I have a personal relationship with him, but I mean, Pete's profile is absolutely exploded. I mean, Pete could be— and remember, Graham, Pete's young. Pete's younger than me. I mean, not that I'm young, I'm 51. However, that's young enough, especially in the political space. Pete's younger than me, you know. Pete's Profiles absolutely exploded. Pete could be a viable candidate himself. He could be a VP pick. He could run himself. Like, I mean, the, the bench is just, just loaded. And the thing is, like, unlike Gavin Newsom, a guy like Hegseth or Rubio or Vance is going to have a spreadsheet to run on, uh, the border, military reform, our actual successes, like actual stuff that happened, not just like bullshit. Yeah.

No, no, I agree. And so, yeah, you know, everybody's like, who do you think is going to be the pick for, you know, 28? I don't know. Like, to your point, we've got such a star-studded thing right now. Yeah, I know the president's alluded to, you know, a Vance-Rubio ticket would be, would be unstoppable and things like that. But, you know, as well as I do, 2 years in politics is a long time. Let's see what happens. But to, but to your point, we have a chance with the roster that we have with a Pete Hegseth, with a J.D. Vance, with a Marco Rubio. And the list goes on and on. We have an opportunity to win in '28. Well, we got to win in '26 first, but presidential in '28 and then presidential again in 2032. We've got some all-stars that we can truly go on a generational run. But it all stops in November if we don't do our job and show up to the polls. And that, that is the biggest thing that I'm preaching. That me and you, we can see it like we can see the legendary dynasty, you know, like your Alabamas and stuff like that.

Like we can see it, we can see it coming down the way, but we got to get through November and we've got to show up in November. And everybody knows the midterm blowout, you know, or excuse me, the midterm fatigue. It is a known thing. In, in 2020, in 2018, there was a 3% differential of people that voted for Hillary Clinton versus Donald Trump in 2018. We saw what happened with the midterms there with a 3%, 3% drop-off in turnout to the ballot box. We can't have that. Like, we have to have people show up in 2026 now because we have to— we're trying to— we're trying to combat history here a little bit. Since 9/11, if someone takes over all three in a presidential thing, there's a radical swing the next direction. We're going against history here. And I believe we've got the policies on our side. I believe we got the winds on our side. But we have to motivate the American people to continue to see that. Because to your point, when they log on, they're seeing the rage porn. They see the doomers, they see the woke right, and they see actual leftist disguised as conservatives that are telling them that it's all, it's all over, it's all done.

We've been betrayed in this and we have to push the actual truth to get Americans to show up in November.
