It's very rare we've done that. Yeah, but it happened. But you're welcome back. Yeah, I think it was a viable excuse. Joe forgave me. It's good to have gee back, too. A little under the weather last week. So I just want to show you this just picture of my mom because I got to let her go. After today, it's hard to talk about, but some of you are like, who's that?

[00:03:29]

Is that you, Dan? No, that's actually not me. I just love this picture of my mom. That's my brother. There's my brother Jimmy, the middle one. There were three boys. I'm the oldest. There's Jimmy. And there's Joe, my youngest brother. And that's how I choose to remember my mom. I want to thank everybody who reached out. First of all, you all. You get the first. Thank you because I got so many tweets and Facebook messages and truth social messages and emails and texts. You all were so supportive of me and lifted me up, and it was a hard weekend. And I just want to tell you again, this is not a political segment, obviously, but there are people out there who are really genuine. Mark Robinson called, which I thought was amazing. He's running for governor. He could have just sent a message. Vivek sent a wonderful text. Chip, Roy. And of course, President Trump, the nicest guy called. Just wanted to know if there was anything he could. You know, my dad was in the car when he called and just couldn't believe it. So thank you to everyone and all my childhood friends who showed up.

[00:04:41]

You all are really special. So I'll leave that there. That's last time I'm going to talk about that. But I appreciate all your love. You guys are great. Let's get to the meat and potatoes of the show because life goes on, folks. Unfortunately, people pass. And my mom would have been very disappointed if I didn't get to the business part of the show right away. So this is one of those stories this morning I saw it and I'm like, do I bring this up or is it going to sound self celebratory for no good reason? The only reason I bring up stories I talked about in the past is because it makes sense. And I'm like, I got to bring this up. Why is Joe Biden like Joe Biden? Why is Biden Biden? There are so many people out there who don't understand how it is a guy they air quotes, mistook for a moderate became the most liberal U. S. President in the United States history, folks. Even worse than Obama. Look at the immigration numbers. Biden versus Obama, inflation numbers, Biden versus Obama, government spending, Biden versus is. I'm begging. Like actually begging please.

[00:05:58]

Biden is. Are. You're fighting the wrong enemy. There are so many people. Oh, Dan, Obama was worse. He was terrible. You have no data to back that up. That Obama, who was horrible, granted, is worse than Biden. What was worse? Things that were bad under Obama, which were a lot. Point stipulated. Brothers and sisters, I give you a hard pound, but my elbows don't work. I get you. Tell me what number was worse. Everything's worse under Biden. He is trying to out liberal Obama. And one of the stories that Joe and I have been telling you for nine years now because I was there in that White House is these two freaking hate each other. Why is it relevant? Because now all of a sudden the media is reporting on what I've been telling you for nine years as if it's some breaking news story that Obama and Biden hate each other. But if you knew that, and you do, because you listen to my show, everything makes sense. Why is the border open? Because Biden wants to be more liberal than Obama. Because he wants to be seen as the FDR Obama never was.

[00:07:09]

Biden is the president Obama always wanted to be but didn't have the political sense to pull off. He was too politically savy. Obama. That's interesting. Look at this. Axios am. Biden's rivalry, everything I told you, President Biden doesn't speak often with Obama, but behind closed doors, he talks about him a lot. It's almost like I worked with him. Gee. Said Biden often measures himself against Obama. Axios reports Obama would be jealous. Biden sometimes says when speaking about an accomplishment, folks. Oh, my gosh, Dan, who cares? You said no, but keep this upkeep for a second. You don't understand. This is important because if this guy gets a second term, this is going to get even uglier. He is trying to out Biden. Biden, which is who tried to out Obama. Obama. The competitive dynamic has informed Biden's approach to several issues, including how he dealt with Afghanistan, Israel and Congress. Here it goes on, folks. We lose. This country's done. This guy is going to go crazy in his second term. As if he hasn't gone crazy right here. Listen to this. Many longtime Biden aides have always felt Obama and his team didn't fully appreciate Biden's expertise with foreign policy.

[00:08:44]

It, folks, this is about to get really bad. One more. This is important. Last screenshot from this. Three. Were there three? I say, yeah. What? Okay, what's, oh, okay. It's already there. Sorry. He's already stepped out of me. At times. Biden's competitiveness with Obama has affected how he governs. He's tried to correct for what he sees as a former president's mistake. Let's move on now. However, I'm warning you now, always been a voice for you guys. I don't tell you something to sound like the guy or the man or who gives a shit. None of that really matters. None of that matters. All that matters is that we are a step ahead and can see around corners with these people and everyone who told you, oh, don't worry. The never Trumpers who said Biden's a moderate voice. Trump is so dangerous. We can vote for Biden and he's going to be a caretaker guy. I was the guy telling you that's bull. He is going to out Obama Obama because he's jealous. And now you're seeing them report on it. A second term is going to be a freaking nightmare. Like you've never seen everything you never thought would happen will happen.

[00:10:34]

You better vote like your darn life depends on it because it will. Your guns gone, your money gone. Stock market done. Wealth tax, it's all going to be there. If he has the votes, it is all going to happen. Bouncing around so much. Must choke myself. Lately, folks, we got some hoax busting to, you know, listen, in the past, it was kind of difficult busting hoaxes with Trump, right, Joe? I mean, it took a few days. For example, the fine people hoax in Charlotesville, Trump celebrates white supremacists. Now, for those of us who watched the speech after the Charlotesville incident, what happened? Donald Trump condemned completely and totally the white supremacist. But of course, because the media are scum and garbage, they said Donald Trump praised a bunch of white supremacists. In Charlotesville. Now, folks, I think, fellas, we got to be honest. Everyone here, that lie spread around the world, did it not. I mean, Joe, you remember it. It was like a week later. Joe and I were still like, I can't believe the people. Just watch the freaking speech. All you had to do was listen to it. And I was like, wow, the media, man, they really are powerful.

[00:11:54]

But then the insurrection hoax happened where he told people to march peacefully and patriotically. And we kind of got out ahead of that one. But still, I'm not going to tell you we won that. We still kind of lost that one. They got that around. I mean, so much. So Jack Smith and Biden are trying to prosecute him over it. But, ladies and gentlemen, we have grown powerful. Because I love guy and he loves Star wars. This is like a force analogy. They struck down Obi Wan and only made him more powerful. I think the beatings we've taken in the media. Ladies and gents, I'm with you, brothers and sisters. I'm not virtue signaling with you. We don't have to do that with each other. And this is not time to pop the champagne on the know. But you should at least kind of keep your chin up and your chest out. This weekend, you won. This weekend. The media tried it again with the bloodbath hoax. What's the blood bath hoax? Well, for those of you may have missed it this weekend, understandably. Yeah, I'm almost missed it. I had obviously things going on, but I found out seeing this montage of headlines, I was like, wow, Trump was calling for violence in the country.

[00:13:02]

This is crazy. NBC News, Trump says there'll be a bloodbath if he lose the election. I was like, holy Moses, that's awful. We shouldn't say that. In Ohio campaign rally, Trump said there'll be a bloodbath, according to CBS, if he loses in November. And then Rolling Stone, which is. This is how I knew it was fake. Joe. Rolling Stone. Guys, what's the rule on Rolling Stone? Whatever Rolling Stone says, the opposite's true. So once I saw Rolling Stone, I'm like, okay, this is definitely not true. Trump says there will be a bloodbath and elections will end if he isn't reelected by the hat tip to end wokeness for this. He put this up in a tweet and I was like, okay, I saw Rolling Stone, so I figured this didn't happen. So for the sake of clarity showing you what kind of scum the media is, I'm going to play the minute you may have heard it before, but it's worth hearing again, especially for the liberals who listen. Here is Donald Trump, the bloodbath comments. And you're going to notice something really funny. He's not talking about a bloodbath, violence in the street if he's not elected.

[00:13:59]

He's talking about the economic conditions of the car market. Sounds totally different than what the media told us. You listen yourself.

[00:14:07]

Mexico has taken over a period of 30 years. 34% of the automobile manufacturing business in our country, think of it, went to Mexico. China now is building a couple of massive plants where they're going to build the cars in Mexico and think, they think that they're going to sell those cars into the United States with no tax at the border. Let me tell you something to China, if you're listening. President Xi and you and I are friends, but he understands the way I deal those big monster car manufacturing plants that you're building in Mexico right now, and you think you're going to get that? You're going to not hire Americans and you're going to sell the cars to us? No, we're going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line and you're not going to be able to sell those cars. If I get elected now, if I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole. That's going to be the least of it. It's going to be a bloodbath for the country. That'll be the least of it.

[00:15:07]

Folks, he's clearly talking about the car market. Now. One of the things on this show I refuse to do is do the same segment you've heard on cable news all weekend. I always try to take a story and give you an angle that's different and matters. We obviously know that's fake. The point to this is, folks, today, to give you a little bit of a pat on the back so you have some positive incentive to continue to do what you successfully did this weekend. You took a story that would have been a pun intended bloodbath for Donald Trump and his campaign if this was true. Donald Trump threatened violence if he wasn't elected. You're all going to die in some bloodbath. You took a story that would have been a disaster for Donald Trump, and not only did you crush it immediately, immediately you turned it around. So it became a, quote, bloodbath for the media that tried bloodbath gate. They just got humiliated. Now, the term bloodbath, the lefties in the media can't use that term. Conjures up images of violence. This is hat tip maze. Moore oh, really? Democrats never use that term.

[00:16:21]

Check this out.

[00:16:21]

In a move that could haunt the GOP, Donald Trump's allies have now ordered mass layoffs at the Republican National Committee. It comes just days after Trump's allies, including his daughter in law, took command of the RNC headlines calling it a, quote, bloodbath and a, quote, moblike takeover with more than 60 officials, including senior staff members, laid off or asked to resign.

[00:16:48]

Folks, I could play for you 100 of these, maybe more of media people using that exact word to talk about firings, layoffs, economic conditions, the economy. You took this story in a very instructive moment. I need you to internalize and take going forward. Here's the business model now get on social media seconds after it happens. Watch what the media does when they pick up the story. Fire back instantly. Now with X under the control of Elon, it is impossible for them to control the narrative anymore. Ladies and gentlemen, we're in charge now, not them. And of course, leave it up to the, I mean, the absolute dipshits at Drudge report. If you're still using drudge, I'm sorry, here's Drudge. Their headline, Trump warns bloodbath if he's not elected. Folks, get off drudge. Whether you use mine or not, I don't care. There's citizens Free press out there, revolver. I have bonginoreport.com. They're all, don't. I don't care which one you not. We don't do it for the money. I just do it to give you an option. Get off Drudge. It's a garbage website for lefties. All he wants is to destroy Donald Trump. That's it.

[00:18:12]

I'm not going to lie to you. I have to look at it every day because I have to see what crappy's reporting. But don't give this guy to clicks again. You got Bongino report, Citizens Free Press, revolver. And there's more out there. There are other news aggregators. Don't give Drudge to clicks. It's a site run by absolute goons on the left again, the website hasn't been updated 472 millennia. So just get off it. We have videos on ours too, to help you out. And by the way, they're so worried receipts matter, right? It's one thing for me to say, oh, we've turned the tide. We're winning now. It's a virtue signal. You're doing a mighty Joe young pat on your chest. No. New York Times, March 17. I think that was yesterday. I don't even know the date. I'm losing track of time. How Trump's allies are winning the war over disinformation. We're winning. They know it. They know we're winning. I got another hoax, though. Bloodbath gate stole the whole weekend. And good job crushing the media and making it a story about them. You all are amazing. But there's another hoax brewing now.

[00:19:27]

I'm asking you again for a not. This one's not like a beg means like, but I'm asking you pleasantly and respectfully for a favor. There's another hoax brewing out there. It involves Trump, hunter, Biden, and an FBI informant. The Guardians started up this weekend, and I need you to crush this one, too. And again, I'll bring the receipt on it that it's a ridiculous one, too. Listen, if it's a hoax, it's a hoax. If it's not, it's not. These are all scams. Quick break. We'll get right back to are you having trouble sleeping? Had a rough weekend, folks. Is poor sleep negatively impacting your life? You try other sleep supplements with no success.

So here's another one I need you guys to squash, because it hasn't garnered a lot of steam yet, because I think it's so ridiculous. Other mainstream media outlets kind of laughed. But the Guardian, which is insanely left, I mean, embarrassingly so, has this piece out here where they're implying, to make this simple, that FBI informant in the hunter Biden case that they are prosecuting now, claiming he lied about hunter Biden.

[00:21:47]

Alexander Smirnoff, you remember the case. They're now implying, ridiculously, that this FBI informant was getting payoffs from, like, Trump connected people. You get what they're getting at, right? Oh, look, was this guy winky winky, nod nod connected to Trump? So the article is titled, us firm that paid indicted FBI informants tied to Donald Trump associates. Records reveal. And I was like, wow. Oh, my gosh. AlexaNDer Smirnoff, $600,000 he was paid the same year they say he allegedly began lying to the FBI about Biden's role in Ukraine. It's good they use the word allegedly because whatever the FBI tells you can probably believe the opposite. So I start reading the articles, yo, and I'm like, man, this better be a pretty rock solid connection for you to throw that out there in a paper and not humiliate yourself. And I'm like, is there, like, a check from Trump Inc. To this FBI informant? Because, Joe, one thing we do have is a signed check from a chinese Communist party connected firm to Joe Biden. We got that. We got that. But that's not a connection because, guy, remember, they told us there's no evidence of Biden's involvement.

[00:22:59]

So the check to Joe Biden is no evidence, but this guy apparently was paid off by some Trump connected associates. I was like, wow. So I looked at the chart and I was like, wait, what? So Smearnoff got 600,000 from ETT, whose CEO is Chris Condon, who's a third of a shareholder in ETT investment, who is so funny, he's got to keep scrolling along with Shahail Khan and Farouk Arjiman, both have ties to Donald Trump. What does that even mean? What the. Joe's a communist, too. Did you know that, Joe producer Joe? Why'd you hire him? No. He is. Joe, a long time ago, suggested that I contact a guy who showed me the Bezmanoff video who was once connected to the KG. Yes, Joe's a communist. You ever see seven degrees of Kevin Bacon? Like how everybody on planet earth or whatever is related to Kevin Bacon? This is their story. So Smirnoff got money from a company who's run by a dude who invested another company who knows a dude, who knows a dude who has a tie. That's freaking stupid, dude. He said it right, bro. This is definitely impeachment stuff. They should impeach him now before he's even in office.

[00:24:28]

They are gee founded. But this is no evidence. See, James Biden writes a $40,000 check to his brother for a loan repayment. Nobody has the documents on. But that's not evidence. That is definitely not evidence. A dude got a check from a company who knows a dude, invested in another dude, who, along with a dude and a dude, have some alleged ties to Donald Trump. That's it. Impeach him. But there you go. That's enough. Forget that. That check is. Ladies and gentlemen, let me just say, however much you hate the media, it is not enough, my friends. It is not enough. I promise you, however, we're winning, folks. I had this debate with my cousin this weekend. One of my cousins is a Democrat. I love her. She's my cousin, but she's not, like, crazy or anything like that. But I grew up in a family in New Yorkers. You're going to have some Democrats in there. And we had such a great time, but we had kind of a nice, peaceful conversation Sunday morning, and we were having some coffee in the hotel before she had to go to work. And then she's an ad exec, and I had to leave.

[00:25:43]

And I love her. She's actually my oldest cousin. When they change your diapers growing up, she did for me. She's ten years older. She's the babysitt me, it's a different relationship. But we got to talking about politics. We were talking about the media at the table, drinking this coffee. And even she had to acknowledge, like, there's no source of truth anymore, that these people have burned their credibility so bad that no one trusts them. And she's like, that's the real shame of it because she said, you follow politics, so you get it, and you'll go and seek the answers out. Not to belabor this and make it a personal story, but she said, a lot of people don't, and there's nowhere to really go to trust anyone anymore. But folks, that's because of you. You're winning. And I had suggested to her that this isn't a bad thing, that we're in the middle of a big sea change. We're not there yet. It started where the New York Times, ABC, NBC, and the Washington Post right, Joe, you're older than me. That was it. That was the source of truth. Now, what they said wasn't true, but it didn't matter.

[00:26:45]

People believed it. And then you had this big transformation over decades, and we're halfway through where now there are very few people who are trusted. I bring that up because can you imagine the pain? Philip Bump, who I can't stand, I think is the dumbest person in media by far, at the Washington Post. I really don't like this guy. It's personal because he's so vicious, but stupid. Do you know how much it must have pained Philip bump at the Washington Post to write an article about exactly this phenomena? I saw this pop this weekend. Sadly, I was leaving the funeral, and someone sends this to me. There's an article he wrote about how basically, he's basically blaming us conservative media for Biden's unpopularity. And the gist of his article is, why does nobody trust the Washington Post anymore? Well, the answer is, because you work there. That's why. So he wrote this. And I got to tell you, folks, I was flattered. I'd never seen this before. And forgive me for posting. I want to sound too self celebratory, but I was pretty honored. This is a Philip bump article, too. Like I said, this guy hates my guts.

[00:27:50]

And the feelings mutual, he wrote. Last April, ugov ran some poll on how much trust they had in television personalities. The person who had the highest rating amongst those presented was far right commentator Dan Bongino. Folks, I got to tell you, man, I was kind of floored by that. You know how much it must have killed Philip Bump to write that? I never saw that poll ever. I don't even know what that. Never far right. Damn. Bonjour. I know I'm far. Joe. We're so far right. You know, crazy things like economic prosperity, personal control of health care, school choice. I'm such a crazy. You know what a nutbag I am. Like, maybe we shouldn't get our boys killed in a thousand foreign wars. What a lunatic, man. That guy must be a Nazi or something. He's definitely a ku Klux Klan member. He's a racist, too, and definitely anti Semitic. Hates jewish people, women, puppies, dogs, kittens, even bears. He didn't even like bears. Even when they're cute little cubs. Hates them. All right, Gene just said it. It's the biggest cope ever that bump has to put in there. He has to opinionate himself.

[00:29:01]

The opinion has to be a far right political commentator. Philip Bump just doesn't like it that I wreck him all the time on the truth. But folks, nobody trusts these people anymore. You are winning, and I'm going to show you what I mean in a second with another story about, of all things, cannibalism. It says whenever the media tries to tell you something, NBC, the Washington Post, you're almost guaranteed every time. The opposite is true, even involving cannibalism in Haiti. I'll show you what I mean coming up in a second. Quick break. Hey, make life insurance an important part of your financial planning this year.

These guys are really great to me in the show and I really appreciate it. That means a lot. So again, showing you why this conversation with my cousin and I happened. How there is no source of truth anymore in the mainstream media. Ladies and gentlemen, nothing they tell you is true.

[00:32:16]

So Haiti is in the middle of a massive collapse. You may have heard about it. We don't discuss a ton of foreign policy on the show. We should probably do a little more. But there's so much going on domestically it's hard to fit it in an hour program every day. But Haiti's collapsed into madness. Gangs have taken over the country. And folks, Haiti's proximity to the United States, this is a real problem. This isn't as much a foreign policy issue as it is a could be domestic issue. Why? Because you can expect flotillas of haitian migrants to come here. This is really a problem for us. We can't just ignore this. I'm not suggesting we need some 5000 person force in Haiti, but we definitely can't ignore it. So here's this headline from NBC News. And you read it, there were some reports of cannibalism in Haiti. So NBC's David Ingram, who is the biggest tool at NBC, whatever this guy tells you, like Philip Bump at the post, you can always be sure the opposite is true. Always. This guy's like the Rolling Stone. Like whatever they say, assume the opposite. Elon Musk and right wing influencers use cannibal claims.

[00:33:22]

They smear haitian migrants amid crisis. So he's insinuating of course, because he's a hack and a loser and a bag. He's insinuating of course that Elon and other people who are like, hey, these reports are cannibalism that we're just doing that because you're a bunch of evil racists. Because this is the same story they use all the time. So cannibalism didn't happen. So I read down in the report, expecting him to debunk this thing. David Ingram. And this guy, again, is the dumbest guy at NBC. And I read the accusations of widespread cannibalism are based on what experts said was a likely intimidation tactic from gang members. In some videos, the most prominent examples being at least two years old, alleged members of violent gangs in Haiti appear to bite into human flesh. That's got a definition. It's called cannibalism. So the videos are real. Your only problem with the video is the same gangs you're saying are taking over Haiti now that they engaged in cannibalism as an intimidation tactic, but you're not sure if they're still. So it's not about right wing influencers. You're only arguing the timeline just to be because Joe, last time I checked, have you ever, Joe bitten into human flesh as an intimidation?

[00:34:42]

Tactically? No. You try not to, right? I always worry about that when I'm hungry. Yeah. You ever try that little human with some adobo on it? No, not yet. He heard it's tasty, but he's like, nah, I'm going to stick with cows and stuff and chickens. Yeah, me too. See, we don't do that here. So it did happen. You're just arguing the timeline. Surely it's not another media hoax that I said. No, not at all. They're definitely not human flesh. Imagine you're sitting like, I got to eat a protein shake. I don't have one, but we got some human flesh for you to chop into. Oh, by the way, what's up with this story? Is there an update on this from 2016 in Haiti? A factory where big money, the state department, and the Clinton family meet there. And the Clintons meet. Sorry, any update on that? All that money, the Clintons pen them in Haiti, as Mike Benz noted. You ever going to meet a bigger blob deep state story than this meeting over dinner? State department, big money, CIA, the Pentagon, all involved in Haiti. And, oh, look, it descended into madness. So I put a little note here.

[00:35:54]

Yeah, I just want to get this out here. Look, it's on the sheet if you think I'm kidding. What problem has the blob deep state ever solved? Here. It's right there. You can read it. What? I wrote this on the plane because I had to put the show together yesterday on the way back. It's a pretty good show, though, right? I'm enjoying the show. What problem has the blob deep state ever solved? Anyone in the chat? Anyone in the chat? Joe, any ideas? Can you think of a problem? Where has the deep state blob fellas been the most involved? Ukraine. Haiti. The Middle East. Middle east on fire. Ukraine's currently on the cusp of setting off world War three, and Haiti has been taken over by gangs that David Ingram says, don't worry, they were only eating humans two years ago. So. Right. Key. Don't worry. It was two years ago they were eating humans, but they're definitely not doing it now. They've given up on that tactic. Yeah, they've done great. Maybe we should have Mike Benz back on again. They ask him for a deep state of that. Mike. That's it. Mike, can you do a video?

[00:36:56]

I'll share it on Twitter. A personal appeal to Mike Benz. Can you do one of your walking talks? And can you do this? Is there a place on earth you may know because you know more about this than anyone? To Benz, it's a personal appeal. Can someone send this to my social media? Is there a place on planet earth the blob has succeeded in their grand globalist design? There may be. There may be like an Oz, Joe, but just a real wizard. I don't know about it. I've never heard. Everywhere the blob goes, what happens? Cannibalism. World War three, racial, ethnic, and religious strike everywhere. Sounds like communism is right. They're really good at that. Communism has a 100% success rate. It does that, yes. A failure. It's failed every time. So does the blob. So, Mike, if you do that video, I'd be deeply honored. I will share it. I'll even share clips on the show, because if there's a success story, I'd love to hear it. Okay, moving on, because I do got a lot to get to today. I've been a little slow. I'm obviously a little energetic on a Monday. I missed you guys on Friday.

[00:37:58]

Lot going on. Lot of emotions this weekend. And I know mom Dukes would have been proud that we do this show and we get to change the world and that you all put your faith in me. Folks, all politics are local. There are certain axiomatic truths. The golden rules of the Dan Bongino show I put out there. And one of them is all politics are local now, chatsters. And I don't mean this in a condescending kind of bag way, like I'm trying to talk above anybody's head. I don't, I mean, this practically, people say that a lot, all politics are local. But do you know what it actually means? Notice it doesn't say local politics are local because we hear that expression a lot like, oh, yeah, people care about local issues. No. Yes, that's what it means, but that's not really what it means. What all politics or local really means is that people aren't going to change voting patterns until the politics of a situation hurt them at their kitchen table. That's actually what that means. I know a lot of you get that. Again, I hope that didn't come off the wrong.

[00:39:11]

Just I misinterpreted that for a long time. After a failed run for congress in Florida, when the water issue, the water issue, the guy just knew more than me and I hated it. I thought, ah, that was, that's not what that means. Every single piece of politics is local. What does that have to do with this next segment, folks? The immigration issue was never an issue that changed the electorate. As a matter of fact, and I've told this story before, forgive me if you're hearing it again, but it's short and it's sweet, but it's poignant and to the point here. I was in a focus group of conservatives, very influential people. I don't want to say who was, it's not a secret, but there was just a lot of people, you know, and we would sit in DC on Wednesdays and we would chat or Tuesdays, whatever. I don't know what it was. And I'll never forget this guy coming in and saying, stop talking about immigration. After Romney lost to Obama, he said, nobody cares. It's a local issue, basically on the border states and that's all they care about, but no one else does.

[00:40:16]

The genius of what Greg Abbot and Ron DeSantis and others did is sending illegal immigrants. And that's what they are, illegal immigrants. They are not newcomers. They are not migrants. They are illegal immigrants. The genius of what they did is they made the politics of immigration local because now all of a sudden you get off the train in Manhattan and those same people you heard about in a faraway place in McAllen, Texas, all of a sudden we're sitting there right in front of you. The nation owes a debt of gratitude to these people, DeSantis and Abbot. I don't care about the politics in the primary center. It's over. It's done. He's a good governor down here in Florida. And Abbott I know hasn't been with us on every issue, but he's finally come around on this thing. What they did, remember, politicians are tools. What they did to make this a national issue is genius. And you are absolutely insane to not credit Donald Trump with this, too. Donald Trump took on the immigration issue in 2015 and 2016, and everybody told him it was a loser, but he had a gut instinct to run with it, and he made it a local issue.

[00:41:32]

I want to show you what I mean. This is my home county here in Martin. This is Sheriff Snyder. You know, he's leaving. He's the guy Donald Trump left a message to. He's retiring. Great guy. Love him to death. Here he is. This is a local report. This is my community now. This was not showing you again. All politics are local. I did not find this in my local paper. It was in a national conservative outlet. This is everywhere in the country right now. This is my local sheriff where I live in Martin county. Watch this. We've seen an enormous spike in sex crimes against juveniles here. Unfortunately, a lot of that's occurring in our undocumented immigrant communities.

[00:42:11]

Martin County Sheriff William Snyder telling us this a few weeks ago while addressing overcrowding in his jail. We reached back out to him after this latest incident.

[00:42:19]

To elaborate, I'm not a sociologist, but my sense is that we see more sex crimes with some of our immigrant population because in their culture, it may not be quite the taboo that it is here.

[00:42:33]

Center says 33 of the inmates here in his jail are holds for ICE. Of those, 28 he says are undocumented. Of those 28 individuals, he says more than a third are charged with serious sex crimes.

[00:42:46]

Folks, that's a local news report. But I didn't see it in the local news. I was gone. I was in New York burying my mom. I was flying home. I saw it in the post millennial or something. This is a national issue. This is what all politics or local means. These stories are going to pop up in every community. And don't buy the BS story from the leftist goons that, oh, citizens commit crimes, too. That's not the point. Jerk wads on the left. The point is those people shouldn't be here. We should. We're citizens. We belong here. It's our country. They had a path to citizenship. It's called the immigration process. They chose not to take it. That's not my problem. Here's AOC's district. Is this Vo, there's no sound to this. Here. Look. This is AOC's district. Why am I showing you this was on Fox, by the way. This is the sidewalk. What the hell is this? Like an outdoor bazaar or something? Look at this. This is insane. How is that? Look at this. Now, why do I bring up AOC's district? Because my grandmother, who's since passed, spent her whole life in Jackson Heights in AOC's district.

[00:44:11]

This is what it looks like. This is insane. What the hell is this? Some outdoor bizarre. It's a sidewalk. Illegal immigrants selling clothing on the sidewalk. Hey, you want to see another one? Here's a local report from Fox News. Fox News. No, Fox News National. Fox News national had a story, too. All politics are local. Another story about sex crimes by illegals that happened just 30 miles south of me. Take a look at this, Sandra. Now to Florida, where the community in Palm beach is on edge after police say a woman was kidnapped and sexually assaulted before she managed to escape. Three men are now in custody and police say they are here illegally from Guatemala. Hey, you want one more? New York Post, illegal migrant from Lebanon caught at the border. Don't worry, folks. He only admitted to being a Hezbollah terrorist hoping to make a bomb. It was headed for New York. No big deal. Nothing to see here, folks. Keith said it right. Maybe they gave him a first class ticket. Maybe he snuck the bomb materials on a. Was he even screened or were they like, don't screen him, he's an illegal.

[00:45:30]

He gets special privileges. Do they get like pre check or clear or something like that? How does that work, folks? Because I'm a solutions oriented show. Okay, Dan. Well, what are we going to do, folks? Donald Trump wins. He is the presumptive nominee. And it's presumptive only because I care about accuracy. And the convention hasn't happened yet, but obviously the primary is over. The presumptive nominee, Donald Trump. We need a massive deportation program, the biggest deportation program we've ever seen. You have to go back to your country, and if you've broken the law, there has to be some five or six year period where you can't come back here legally. I'm sorry, you broke the law. There's going to be a penalty and you cannot come back right away. Matter of fact, you cannot come back for years because a message has to be sent that you try to get into the United States illegally. That's it. It's over. Probably be preferable. You can't come back at all because you chose the illegal route. Has to be the biggest deportation program we've ever couple. I got a kind of a feel good story. One last thing.

[00:46:44]

I'm sorry I didn't say, but I want a couple other thank yous. I wanted to thank, folks. I left Fox a while ago and there's always a lot of misinformation out there. Philip bump, who implied I was fired from Fox. So I offered him $100,000 cash and I meant it. I still offered him that if he could prove that's true because it's fake. I was not fired. We left amicably. I have no ill will whatsoever towards Fox. I think we cover them fairly. I think they cover our stuff fairly. And I've always appreciated that they covered the rumble thing. He offered to buy TikTok. And I appreciate that. But a lot of the fox people reached out this weekend, too. And I want you to know, to all of you, that meant a lot to me. I really appreciate it. Sometimes I know the business side of this and everything gets polluted, but I'm still just a guy and I got a lot of feelings about stuff. I appreciate that. Hey, I only bring up this story because if there's one big kind of grand vision of the show that, you know, Joe, me and he, and now Tony and Jim and Mike on the radio and my wife, when she was helping us out, ever had it, was to make the point to you, not people.

[00:47:58]

You know, Dan's angry sometimes. And you're right. I get it, folks, chatsters, whoever says that you are totally right. I am never going to deny the fact that I am probably the angriest guy in conservative, at politics, not in life. I'm actually a very happy guy. But there's a reason I'm not angry, because it's a shtick. It's certainly not an act. My aunt Marion at the weight this weekend said to me, dan, you need to calm down. You're going to have a heart attack. She's like, is that some thing you put on or is that real? I'm like, unfortunately, it's real because it wasn't real. I could shut it off. I really am angry at these people. Joe, can you vouch? I really dislike them. And it's because liberals are evil. It's not just that they're bad. I'm talking about all Democrats talking about liberalism. Everything they do, they destroy. Whatever they do is not going to just not help you. It is going to hurt you. The border taxes. So I saw this story. It's the only reason I bring this up. I love James Freeman at the Wall Street Journal. He has this article of, he has a piece every single day in the opinion section.

[00:49:00]

It's always very good. It's the longest one in the opinion section most days. But it's worth your time because he digs up stories from everywhere and he's talking about a report in the Scotsman about basically the situation with government run health care in the UK and that whole part of the world. He notes that in January, the number of people basically waiting in emergency rooms more than 8 hours increased to 17,800, and those waiting more than half a day rose to 8800, which is the highest on record. There's this calculation that there will be an excess death for every one in 72 people who spends eight and 12 hours in an emergency room. It's estimated long waiting times caused 2000 excess deaths in 2023. Folks, wait, the last line in this is killer. Freeman notes, how did modern societies ever talk themselves into putting government bureaucracies basically in charge of something as Porton as healthcare? They're killing you. Why? You understand what I'm saying? People who push for government run health care, it's not just that. They're not trying to help you. Liberals say, oh, we're going to help you. The government's going to run.

[00:50:17]

No, no, it's not good enough to debunk that. They're trying to kill you. This is in the Wall Street Journal, folks. Anybody can read this. Everyone knows this data. Everyone. It doesn't matter. They will get you killed. When the government runs health care, it rations it because the price signal is thrown out, period. There's only two ways to allocate medicine and a doctor's time. Ration it or price it. That's it. You tell me a third way, I'll give you the Nobel Prize in economics. You want rationing? If you want rationing and death, push for government health care. I'm not telling you the price system is perfect. It's not. But if you want to die, go with the. I want to show you a bit of a touching video only because I have feeling very emotional today and I grew up on the UFC. You guys remember Mark Coleman? Mark the hammer Coleman. You want to talk about one of the most powerful, athletic, way destructive forces in UFC? In the early days, it was Mark Coleman. This guy just changed the game. He was a wrestler. He was just a beast. So Mark Coleman had this tragic incident and did you hear about this?

[00:51:35]

And he had a house fire and Coleman had to go back in and save his parents and he couldn't see anything and he barely got them out. He found himself in critical condition and this is him and his daughters when he wakes up, talking about how he almost couldn't get his parents because it was dark. But you may want to get a Kleenex for this one. It certainly brought a tear to my eye. Check this out. I'm the happiest man in the world. I swear. God, I'm so lucky. I can't believe my parents are alive. I had to make a decision, Wes, because I got out of my room and went to the door, and it was already horrible. I couldn't breathe. I always had to go outside. I got up, and I couldn't find ever. You know, folks, people do heroic things every day. I hope Mark Coleman's okay. I know he was really seriously injured in that fire, and he's been through a lot. So God bless him and his family. That was him and his two daughters. A couple more things I want to get to. I figured I'd warm your heart a little bit.

[00:52:57]

There are some people out there who. The world's still a beautiful place. I know I was dealing with a lot this weekend, but my wife sent me such a nice text this morning. Paula sent me a picture of the sunrise here in Florida, which is always beautiful. And she said, you know, life is beautiful. I think she could tell it was hurting. And I said, it is. So are you. It is beautiful. That circle continued. I want to show you this. Kevin O'Leary, you know, Mr. Wonderful folks, the TikTok bill is gathering steam. The bill to get TikTok to transfer its ownership from China to the United States. I've told you my position on it many times. However, Kevin O'Leary was on Fox, and he mentioned something really important at the know I'm in equity holding rumble. It's only fair for me to disclose that, but be really nice to have it in the hands of an american company. I object to the way it's being done, but TikTok does have a connection to some, really, I'm not so sure doing this in our best interest. So check this out.

[00:53:50]

There are many US platforms to tap, and believe me, the conversation is going on every morning since this bill got momentum in the house. From 07:00 a.m. To 10:00 I'm on the phone. Think about this. Where do you serve it from? Well, we've got something like a rumble here domestically that serves up podcast videos in a higher definition. In longer form, they could serve up TikTok. We could move a lot of it onto there. There's all kinds of players you got to put together. I'm going to be in that mix. Stuart, I love this deal. It's hairy, it's scary, but it's got huge value.

[00:54:24]

I had to tell you folks, as a stakeholder in rumble, I would be ecstatic to have O'Leary in on that deal. Ecstatic. I'm just putting my opinion out there. I'm not token to O'Leary. I don't know, he sounds like a great guy, but I would love to have him involved in that deal. I just throw my two cent out there publicly. I want to end with a big thank you for another thing, along with your support and all your love. I mean, I can really feel it. I wasn't kidding. Like a cloud of energy, it just lifts you up, man. And I feel like I really connected with you all in a different way this weekend, given everything that went down and the unexpected loss of my mom. But then it's funny, that article came out with Philip Bump. And I'm thinking to myself, I've got this amazing family of people. They trust me. They told a, it's, it's so heartwarming to think, know dopey kid from know. All of a sudden everything turned out so great. And then this came out this weekend. It's like, God knows I needed some good news or something.

[00:55:29]

The top us podcast by weekly average downloads. There we are, up one spot to now, six in the world. So I will say this, Joe Rogan is not counted in this one. And on this specific survey, I don't know why it's one of the few. There's some reason, some technical reason. So we're probably realistically seven, but on this thing, well, not probably. We're definitely behind Rogan. We're seven, but on this chart at least we moved up a spot. And I really appreciate that. The Damongino show, you guys are really awesome on the Triton chart. So we love you. Spread the word. Download the rumble app. It's an honor to be back with you guys and ladies out there. Appreciate your patience with the no Friday show. I know you all understand. And we'll be back tomorrow, rocking and rolling again because the show goes on. My mom would have been proud. This is what she wanted me to do. I love you all to death. I'll see you here tomorrow. Rumble.com Bongino at 11:00 a.m. And I'll catch you all in the chat earlier and see you on the radio in a few minutes. You just heard the Dan Bongino show.
