Time Text
Thank you.
Thank you.
Trump's a dictator.
Trump's obviously a dictator.
I mean, Joe Biden told you.
And he said it's not a joke.
So if he said it's not a joke, it means it's definitely true.
Or he says it's not hyperbole or he's not kidding.
And, Guy, you know when Joe Biden says it's not a joke or it's not hyperbole, then it's like, folks, the judge has ruled.
It is 100% credible and authentic.
Don't even dare challenge it.
You'll be accused of defamation.
He said Trump's a dictator.
So I thought to myself, a dictator is a...
A word that has a certain set of characteristics, right?
Like a definition.
It means something.
If it didn't, we wouldn't use it, right?
It's not like supercalifragilisticexpialidocious makes me out of whatever.
It's an actual word.
So yesterday I'm thinking, because I had heard this goofball Biden in an interview say Trump's a dictator.
I didn't even include that because it's just stupid.
He says it all the time.
I'm not going to play this idiot again.
But I thought to myself, that's fascinating.
That this guy would try to pull this dipsy-do, flipper-oo, Trump's a dictator thing, and he must be doing it for a reason.
And the reason is pretty simple.
Because what?
Chatsters, you know?
Because Biden's a dictator.
Obviously, you can't say that.
I can say what I want.
It's called the Dan Bongino Show.
And I only say things I can back up.
So after this breaking story that happened this past week about Biden with the student loans again, it's fairly obvious at this point that we are dealing with a dictator.
And the facts back me up.

All right, fellas, let's get this show started.
By the way, little news flash for you all.
Evita's in studio as always, writing some amazing stuff, doing all the great stuff she does.
She's been doing some kind of warm-up material for a product we'll be launching.
Actually more like a service, it's not like a widget.
You felt great about the show this morning, right?
Evita said it was awesome.
Did you not say it?
Yes, she did.
Tony, did you not see an awesome show?
Come over here.
Come over here a second.
Just say hello to the audience.
Watch.
You're going to absolutely be blown away by this product.
Say hello to the Dan Bongino show.
Everybody wave to Evita.
There you go.
Hey, come on.
I didn't see you on the screen.
There you go.
Was the show awesome this morning?
I tried my best.
No, no.
It was the best.
You're going to love this show.
She's going to blow it out of the water.
Big news coming soon, so stay tuned.
Because...
Right.
Yeah.
Trump's a dictator, folks.
You've heard it a thousand times.
Over and over.
Why?
Because the left always accuses you of what?
What does the left always accuse you of doing?
The left accuses you of doing what they're up to, correct?
They...
Biden is a dictator.
Of course, he is a dictator.
How is he a dictator?
Why?
Well, let's produce the receipts because there are some probably moderate Democrats who've slowly fallen in love with the Dan Bongino show, and they're not yet convinced that their oatmeal god is a bad guy.
They just think he's maybe a little bit incompetent, maybe has some cognitive deficit, needs some acetylcholinesterase, whatever drugs and stuff like that.
Oh, no.
Here's what inspired me to do this show, because there's always something that kind of prods my interest.
Andy Kessler writes some interesting stuff at the Wall Street Journal.
He has a piece I think you should read.
It's called The Presidency.
I'm against it.
You like his stuff?
His point is amazing.
Now, keep in mind, Andy Kessler, right, by the way, is no big, huge Trump guy.
Now, not that that matters, okay?
It's just important you understand that even kind of moderate Republicans and Democrats are starting to wake up to the fact that we already have a dictator, and his name is Joey Boombaz.
He says maybe the most reported line is that Mr. Trump is a democracy-killing authoritarian.
That's what you've heard, right?
Look at Tony coming into the rescue.
He stepped away.
Tony walks right in there like Mariano Rivera.
Bring in the righty!
Tony comes strolling out of the bullpen in the bullpen car.
Look at these guys.
So Kessler notes, appropriately so, that you've probably heard Trump is this democracy-killing authoritarian dictator, fascist, Nazi, whatever it may be.
He says, but check out this Washington Post headline.
A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable.
We should stop pretending.
He says, but don't we already have that with the Biden administration?
$144 billion in student loan forgiveness, open borders, net zero declarations, phasing out gas-powered cars for EV mandates no one wants.
All without a single vote from Congress.
Folks, there are limits on presidential power and a constitutional republic.
But listen to me.
It's not you.
You're not the problem.
You understand?
Everybody, let's get around and hug together as a family.
We are not the problem.
Don't buy the left's bullshit arguments.
You guys support Trump.
He's a dictator.
If he's a dictator, he's the single worst dictator we've ever seen.
Controlling the border, giving you back more of your money, fighting for school choice.
Fighting to save human lives in the womb.
Are you kidding me?
What kind of dictator is that?
Other dictators were involved in eugenics, wiping people out, disrespect for human life, stealing your money, opening borders to enemies to walk right in.
What the hell are you talking about?
The student loan thing happened again.
I hate to keep bringing this up, but folks, if this is allowed to stand, so you understand the history of this.
To people who took student loans out there, Joe Biden is trying to buy your vote.
He's trying to buy your vote by insisting he's canceling your student loan.
No loans are canceled.
Media people, stop talking about Biden canceling student debt.
I thought you were journalists.
There is no such thing as canceling debt.
Everybody vibing with me?
There is no such thing as canceling debt.
If you took out a student loan, Imagine this cup is Bobby.
Bobby takes a student loan.
He takes money.
He gives money to the East Tuna Fish College.
Here.
Here's East Tuna Fish College.
There's the money.
He gives it to him.
And then the college, all of a sudden, wants the money for the next semester, but he takes loans, and he's got to pay the loan back.
Where'd the money go?
Because he still owes money.
The answer is baseball card guy Dan Bongino and all the other taxpayers have to pay off Bobby's loan because the money is already gone to the college.
How freaking hard is this to figure out?
Loans aren't canceled.
Ladies and gentlemen, all debts are paid.
They are paid either by the creditor or by the debtor.
The person who lent the money, the bank, has to be paid back.
Okay, because the money already went to the school.
Where does the bank get the money?
From you.
They're not canceled.
Nancy Pelosi even acknowledged this, showing you we're living with a dictator.
In other words, they know the limits of presidential power, Nancy Pelosi and others, and they don't care.
They're doing it anyway, because Biden is a straight-up dictator.
Listen to me, dictator.
Sorry, I had a stumble there.
He's a dictator.
They know.
How do I know?
That they know what they're doing is a violation of the separation of powers in the Constitutional Republic?
Because they said it.
Listen to Pelosi yourself.
People think that the President of the United States has the power for debt forgiveness.
He does not.
He can postpone He can delay, but he does not have that power.
That has to be an act of Congress.
Folks, listen, you don't even have...
Maybe you're kind of a canoe liberal who's tuning in for the first time just to, like, poke fun at the show or something, because you think it's funny, our country descending into totalitarian matters.
Fine!
Okay, welcome to the show.
Great, good to have you here.
Was Nancy Pelosi lying when she said that?
Simple question for canoe liberals.
Simple question.
Was Pelosi lying then, so she's a liar, and they did have the power to cancel it, but she lied to everyone?
Or, does Joe Biden, has he just fabricated these powers, and Pelosi was telling the truth when she said Joe Biden couldn't do it, i.e., what a dick!
Tater with dill.
Sorry, I just can't.
The word just doesn't flow.
Thank you in the chat.
It's almost like you're funny.
I wish I was funny.
I wish I was funny.
I'd be a comedian.
It'd be far easier to do political commentary when I got to deal with assholes like these people all the time.
So here was Joe Biden yesterday announcing that despite the fact that he cannot do this, he cannot cancel debt.
Debt is never canceled anyway.
The Supreme Court's already told him no.
And Nancy Pelosi herself has already acknowledged they can't do this.
Here's Joe Biden again, giving the double-barreled middle finger to America, the Constitution, and the Republicans saying, you know what?
We're going to cancel even more debt by making this guy pay for this guy's Listen to me,
media goons and losers.
If you were talking in his words, do you notice how they hijacked the language?
If you were taking Joe Biden's words...
Canceling debt and using them.
You are not a journalist.
Just admit you're an opinion person.
And by the way, that goes for conservative cable news as well.
Nobody should be talking about debt cancellation because there's no such thing.
That's a Biden term.
Why?
Because a focus group told Joe Biden to say that.
Because stupid people will believe it.
Oh, my debt is canceled.
Your debt is not canceled.
We have to pay to send you to school while we paid our own student loans.
The first question you should be asking these canoe liberal friends of yours is, do I get a refund then?
I paid off.
I want to...
Folks, if you're citing your education, you're probably a loser.
I'm asking for a...
Can I have a dispensation just for a second on this one?
Because I promise there's a point.
This is not said to pretend I'm smarter than you because I'm not...
I went to high school, I went to college, and I went to graduate school twice, okay?
My high school was a private high school.
Cost a decent amount of money back then, Archbishop Malloy.
I then went to Queens College, City University of New York, Queens College.
I graduated there.
I then went to City University of New York and did a graduate degree.
I then went to Penn State, which was really expensive, where I did an MBA. It cost a lot of money.
Cost me a lot of time.
Are you jerkwads giving me a refund with your money?
Of course you're not.
So now I gotta pay off my loans and your loans too.
Do we get a cut of your future income?
No, we get nothing.
So the Supreme Court, of course, told dictator Biden, dictator Biden, that he can't do this.
And because Biden's a dictator, what do dictators do?
What are characteristics of a dictator?
Characteristics of a dictator very clearly are usurpations of power, right?
Taking power you don't have, abusing that power, ignoring constitutional or precedent limitations on your power.
Not every government has a constitution.
And then stealing from people in an unethical, unequitable manner, stealing their term, and then giving it to others because you're trying to seek more power in political votes.
Sounds like Joe Biden the dictator meets every single one of those things.
Oh, he's not ignoring the Supreme Court, Dan.
That's what a dictator would do.
He's not?
Listen to him.
This is just the other day.
Making basically fun of the Supreme Court.
Poking fun at the fact that the Supreme Court told him he can't do this.
And what did he do?
He did it anyway with double-barreled middle finger.
Just like a dictator.
Take a look.
Tens of millions of people's debt was literally about to get cancelled.
But then some of my Republican friends and elected officials and special interests sued us.
And the Supreme Court blocked us.
But that didn't stop us.
No, I mean it sincerely.
Sincerely, we continue to find alternatives past to reduce student debt payments.
If you listen on Apple and Spotify, you're missing all the fun right now.
Just go to the 14-minute mark of the show.
You'll see what I mean.
It's not even the double.
It's the triple.
Actually, I take that back.
I got my toe middle fingers up.
That's the...
Was it the quintuple?
Have we ever done a quintuple middle finger yet?
Folks...
This guy doesn't give a shit, man!
He doesn't care!
What are the characteristics of a dictator?
Taking power you do not have and abusing people.
Taking their assets, taking their money.
That's exactly what he's done.
Joe Biden is the dictator the media leftist claimed Donald Trump is.
Why?
Now, it's important...
All right, kid, listen.
Funny time's kind of over.
I get it.
Like, I've been dicking around with this a little bit.
But this is serious stuff.
You have to understand the tactic they're doing here.
Because when you understand the tactic and you learn to see it, you'll learn how to dismantle it and turn it on them.
It's what Donald Trump does all the time.
What the media's doing is they're doing what I jokingly call the dipsy-doo-flipperoo, right?
Right?
When the left is up to something, i.e.
Joe Biden becoming a dictator, which they know, the best way to distract you from that and to use it to your advantage is to play the word association game.
So they don't want the term dictator associated with Biden.
Are you tracking me?
Is this making sense?
Tony, if this doesn't make sense, shut this shit right down.
Right now, sane people reading this go, wow, Dan's kind of right.
They said they couldn't do it.
They did it anyway.
And then Biden bragged about ignoring separations of powers in the courts and is still doing it again.
That sounds dictator-y.
They don't want that word associated with Joe Biden.
So they play this trick with the media.
It's very simple.
It's the word association game.
Where in order to distract you from Joe Biden's dictator-like activities, all they do is simply take out Joe Biden, erase it, and put Donald Trump in there.
This is not an accident.
You understand where I'm going with this?
The beauty of it is Donald Trump does the same thing to them.
Bloodbathgate was a perfect example.
Bloodbath.
Donald Trump.
Violence.
What does Donald Trump do?
Goes and gives a speech in Michigan.
Puts on the teleprompter.
Biden's border bloodbath.
And then he plays the word association game in reverse.
I'm not telling you we don't do it too.
But you gotta learn to see the trick.
Because when you see the trick, you then turn it right back.
This is the game of politics.
This kind of seesaw game of messaging where we get negative and positive words to be associated with the campaign.
Positive words to be associated with our campaign.
Negative words to be associated with these jerkwads in the White House.
They can play the game and we can play the game too.
It's called messaging.
This is the messaging game.
They're doing this on purpose.
They know this guy's a dictator.
Here, you want some more evidence?
Folks, look at this.
Did you see this story yesterday?
If this doesn't, you know, bite you in the caboose, I don't know what will.
New York Post.
There was a judge finally calling out this ridiculous DOJ double standard.
So U.S. District Judge Reyes slammed the DOJ for stonewalling Congress on subpoenas to produce information while imprisoning figures from the Trump world like Peter Navarro for doing the same thing.
The Biden administration is basically blocking testimony that the House has subpoenaed.
Steve Bannon and Navarro find themselves in jail and under prosecution for ignoring the same subpoenas.
Finally, this judge, what's her name, Anna Reyes, is like, are you guys shitting me?
You just put Peter Navarro in jail for the same thing you're claiming you can do now.
You just said you can't ignore a congressional subpoena, you're going to go to jail, and yet you, the DOJ, are ignoring congressional subpoenas.
What is that further evidence of, folks?
Two standards of justice?
No.
Yeah, Dan, two standards.
No.
No.
It is not two standards.
It is one standard.
In a dictatorship, which is what we live in now under Joe Biden, there is one standard.
It's called hierarchy.
We're in charge, and you're not.
Yes, we will imprison Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon for breaking a law, and then that same law, we'll ignore it.
Why will we ignore it?
Because we can.
That's it.
Don't talk about hypocrisy.
It's not hypocrisy.
They're not being hypocrites at all.
Dictators are not hypocrites.
Dictators are abhorrent, evil, morally inept, disgusting, grotescities.
But they're definitely not hypocrites.
The dictator's rule is I'm in charge.
That's why I'm the dictator.
Student loans, congressional subpoenas, the DOJ... Here's another one.
They won't hand over the Robert Herr audio.
Robert Herr is a special counsel investigating Joe Biden, you know, for his documents case where Joe Biden stole all these documents he shouldn't have had.
And Robert Herr was like, we shouldn't prosecute him.
He just has memory issues.
Well, the House said, listen, the Republican House said, we want those audio interviews.
We want to hear Biden talking about this stuff.
The DOJ is like, no, we're not going to turn it over.
Why?
Hypocrites?
No.
Oh, brothers and sisters, they're not hypocrites.
Hierarchy.
They're dictators.
They're doing what dictators do.
And folks, it's time moving forward that we do the word association game too.
The difference is we have evidence Joe Biden is a dictator.
They have no evidence whatsoever.
Trump is.
What's your evidence?
Trump's a dictator.
He gave you back more of your money through tax cuts.
What's your evidence?
He's a dictator.
I don't understand.
Produce a single piece of evidence.
He's a dictator.
He tried to shrink the federal register and all the rules you live under.
Does that sound like a dictator to you?
Folks, he's also a liar.
He did it again.
He did it again, Biden.
This one's great.
I got that coming up in a second.
He did it again.
This guy, it's like he tells lies.
He gets called out.
He is a sociopathic kid sniffer.
And he does it yet again.
I'm telling you, he has no control over his faculties anymore at all.
Quick break.
I'll show you what I mean coming up next.
This one's hilarious because this one's actually been debunked, I think, back in like 1987 by the New York Times.
And he did it again.
Hey there, it's Dan Bongino.
As you know, I got something important to talk about here.
You tossing and turning at night, unable to get those elusive Z's.

Give it a shot.
Here's what I'm talking about.
Again, I said yesterday, the best asset on a campaign is supposed to be the candidate.
The candidate's supposed to be a big deal, folks.
When the candidate shows up, whether it's Obama, Trump, George W. Bush, when the candidate shows up, it's supposed to be a big deal.
People pay huge amounts of money at fundraisers to go and see the candidate.
Biden is the worst asset they have.
They are hiding this guy because every time he opens his mouth, he says something where he's completely full of shit and gets exposed.
Look at this one.
He's the first in his family to go to college?
Oh, really?
Fascinating.
Here, watch this video.
I, like an awful lot of people in this audience, was the first in my family to go to college and watch my dad struggle to help me get there.
Really?
He was the first in his family to go to college.
Every time, I think I spent a lot of time on this because the fact that he's a sociopathic liar, word association, practice what you preach.
The fact that he's a sociopathic liar is certainly nothing new.
But there are still people out there who think, oh, he's just a gentle, kind old man with memory problems.
Actually, no, he's been lying about this forever.
Matter of fact, as far back as 1987. Come on, 1987?
Yeah, New York Times.
Look at the date.
1987. Biden admits plagiarism in school, but says it was not malevolent.
They note that he basically stole this speech from Neil Kinnick, the Labor Party leader, where he said he was the first in his family to go to college.
He had miscast some of his own forebears, painting them of having more humble origins than they in fact did.
For example, borrowing Mr. Kinnick's sentiments, Mr. Biden has said he was the first in his family ever to go to university.
In fact, Mr. Biden said today, there are Finnegan's, my mother's family, that went to college.
Folks, the guy is full of shit, okay?
He's a liar.
He has always been a liar.
They have a huge problem with this campaign, and it's their biggest asset is a loser.
He is a loser.
He is a kid-sniffing loser.
And it's funny, his campaign, this campaign account, Biden-Harris HQ, they pumped out portions of my show yesterday, but selectively edited it.
About the Donald Trump comments, you gotta watch it.
I just destroyed them on social media this morning.
But I just want you to watch this too to show you how lost they are, right?
The only thing they have left is the word association game.
Trump dictator, Trump Nazi, Trump fascist, Trump hates immigrants.
That's all they have left.
So we're gonna turn around on them.
I want you to watch this.
This is a TikToker.
Puts out this thing on TikTok.
Did you see this?
It's supposed to be an attack ad against Donald Trump.
Not an ad, I should say a video, an attack video on Donald Trump.
It turns out to be like the most base pro-Trump video.
Trump should steal this and use it as a campaign ad.
This is how lost they are.
Even their attacks are completely void in a vacuum of stupid right now.
Check this out.
You know what Trump will actually do if he gets back into office?
You don't have to speculate, because he calls his plan Agenda 47. And spoiler alert, it's scary as s**t.
Here's some of the worst ideas we're in store for if he wins in November.
One, attacking immigration.
Trump's anti-immigration policies will be even worse the second time around.
He's promised to end birthright citizenship, enlist an army to round up, and deport millions of undocumented immigrants, and deploy thousands of US troops to the southern border.
Criminalizing LGBTQIA plus Americans.
Trump says he'll ban gender-affirming care for trans kids and prevent schools from helping kids through their transition.
He wants to forbid schools from even teaching anything about sex and gender that diverges from the far-right's idea of the nuclear family.
Three, overhauling education.
Agenda 47 includes huge changes to the education system.
He wants to give huge benefits for homeschooling to indoctrinate kids with Christian nationalism, incentivize teachers to carry guns in their classrooms, further crack down on affirmative action, and destroy crucial DEI departments at colleges and universities.
Folks, that's not a Donald Trump ad.
That's not a Donald Trump ad.
That's supposed to be a hit piece on Donald Trump.
He just brought up a good point.
I bring this up often, and some of you new folks to the podcast of EOD or the live stream right here, you may not have heard this before.
Listen, I'm pretty sure this was a piece by Jonah Goldberg.
Listen, we're not fans of each other.
That's fairly obvious.
But a good idea is a good idea, whether it comes from a guy I don't like or not.
I'm not one of these crazy people who lets emotions cloud their judgment.
There was this piece he wrote years ago.
They don't understand us at all.
I need you to get this through your skulls because a lot of us get really upset about the left sometimes.
They're always winning, winning, winning, and they do win a lot, especially in the culture wars.
But we've started to turn it around.
I can prove it to you.
I can absolutely prove it to you right now.
We overturned Roe v.
Wade, and even though they complain about state-level losses, the abortion battle has changed significantly.
Go look at polling in the 70s and the early 80s about abortion and polling now.
We started to turn the tide.
The gun thing, another perfect example.
How many states were constitutional carry 30 years ago versus now?
Folks, it's dramatically different.
We have totally turned the tide on killing babies and guns.
Are we winning?
I think so.
Have we won?
Not even close.
We're far away from a victory on the issue.
We've certainly taken some losses in the abortion debate.
However, we're moving the football.
The reason is they don't understand us, but we understand them.
And Goldberg had this piece a long time ago.
And the piece was fascinating.
It was about, he uses the analogy between smokers and gun owners.
How the reason the nation won the fight generally against smoking.
Remember when we were kids how many people smoked?
Tony, you remember?
Everybody smoked.
On the beach, in the car, with the windows closed, on airplanes.
If you're a young person listening, you're like, get the hell out of here.
In bars.
You'd walk out of bars in New York, you'd be like, oh my gosh, you stunk.
You might as well have taken your shirt, ripped it off, and wiped it in an ashtray.
That's how much you stunk, okay, growing up.
If you're young now, you have no idea.
You don't even remember that world.
What happened?
The answer is everybody knew a smoker.
Their mom, their sister.
So they knew how to talk to him.
And they talked to him their specific way.
The left doesn't understand this at all.
Goldberg then went on to say, this is why they've lost the battle against guns.
They have.
Constitutional carry spreading across the nation.
They have totally lost the fight.
Their momentum is completely gone.
Why?
They don't know how to talk to us.
You guys are dictators.
You want kids killed in school shootings.
You hate puppies and grandma.
You want to roll grandma off the cliff.
And they wonder why we're not listening to them and flipping them the middle finger.
Because they don't understand us.
But we understand them.
You get what we opened with in the beginning of the show?
Don't talk to them about hypocrisy.
I've told you this a thousand times.
It is not a winning argument to the left.
The left's entire reason for being is to abuse power.
If you don't show them what it's like to abuse power by making them suffer real material losses for doing it, and you're making a moral argument about hypocrisy, you are going to lose.
Cutesy time is over.
Nothing I say, I say by accident.
Don't ever forget that.
Show them what abuse of power looks like.

So, Donald Trump put out a video yesterday on abortion.
Obviously a hot issue.
Like I said, I'm realistic.
I'm not naive.
We have taken some losses at the state level.
Anyone telling you otherwise is lying.
But I want you to keep in mind, for all the talk about how abortion is such a political loser, does anybody find this little fact I'm about to throw out?
They're odd.
So, Ohio's kind of a mixed bag.
Ohio is a red state where, on abortion, we lost on an initiative over there.
However, the Republican governor of Ohio won re-election handily.
And Donald Trump won Ohio handily as well in 2020. Now, again, Florida, same thing.
You've been told Florida, abortion's a winning argument in Florida.
We're going to pull people to the polls.
It's kind of fascinating.
Ron DeSantis, who's been a big pro-life guy, won election, re-election there.
By the biggest margin, the governor's won in, what, 50-plus years or more.
So if abortion's such a loser for us, and it's not a mixed bag, then why is it that we win some and we lose some?
The answer is messaging.
Unfortunately, we have, and as I've said before, I disagree on, it's the one thing that President Trump and I have some daylight between us on the abortion issue.
However, There is relatively little doubt that we've handed him a very poor message.
We haven't done the groundwork.
We haven't.
And it's a shame because this is an issue worth fighting for.
I want you to watch the reality of the situation first.
And I'm playing an MSNBC clip here because the poll they have, this went out on a liberal network, so there's no claiming I'm juicing the data.
These are far different numbers than they were even 30, 40 years ago when it was a much more pro-abortion society than it is now.
So anyone telling you like, oh yeah, abortion up till the day of birth is a really popular position, I suggest you watch this.
And don't tell me it's biased.
It's MSNBC. Take a look.
To the second trimester, and that's where public opinion shifts.
Now you've only got 34% who say that abortion in that time frame should be legal in most or all cases.
You've got two-thirds basically saying it should be illegal in most or all cases.
And then you move to the third trimester, and you see an even more dramatic movement there.
Less than 20% believe abortion in the third trimester should be legal in most or all cases.
Eight out of ten voters saying it should be illegal in most or all cases.
So folks, I'm going to ask you a really simple question.
Again, that was MSNBC. I played that for a reason.
I don't want to hear any bullshit like, oh, you're playing biased numbers from Fox or Newsmax or Bongino.com.
I'm doing no such thing.
That's an MSNBC segment.
Democrats' current position is no limits on abortion.
Including the third trimester, where you have a fully formed human being.
There's zero doubt.
It's not a clump of cells.
It's never, everything's a clump of cells.
It's a stupid argument anyway.
But it's not a clump of cells.
Even if you're so ridiculous on the issue, it's got to look human first.
Okay.
Eyeballs, eyelashes, every third trimester.
A fully formed human being.
The left's current position.
Tell me who's crazy here.
Their current position is, yeah, you can whack that kid.
Eh, suck him right out of there.
Really?
And we're crazy.
Folks, you see how the framing, the dipsy-do, flipper-oo works?
Republicans, radical, abortion.
Force birth?
Who's forcing you to...
I mean, force birth.
What the hell kind of line is that?
You notice how they manipulate the language?
It's a human life we're talking about.
80% of people do not support abortion in the third trimester.
For liberals, that's 8 out of 10. 80 out of 100. I know math isn't your strong suit.
I want you to watch what happens in a news show.
This was Brett Baer and Jessica Tarloff last night.
Tarloff, who, as far as I know, supports no limits on abortion that I know about.
She's happy to correct it.
She's welcome on my show.
Brett Baer turns it around on her last night and asks a pretty simple question.
Do you guys basically, you know, support any limits on abortion?
Oh, well, this third trimester, late-term abortion stuff, it's exceedingly rare.
So if it's rare, why are you so concerned about it then?
Watch this.
People are not having abortions in the eighth and the ninth month unless there are catastrophic medical circumstances.
That's a fallacy that the right is trying to push about Democrats.
And what Democrats are saying is that this is a decision between you and your doctor to make sure that you can have a safe delivery and a viable child if you are that far along in your pregnancy.
So we're going to be pushing back.
The numbers just don't support that kind of argument, and they are harrowing stories when a woman has to have an abortion somewhere close to the end, at the nine-month level, for instance.
Understood.
But there should be support then for no late-term abortion legislation across the board, bipartisan.
Well, but the issue there is that that could take away the rights of doctors and the woman who is carrying the fetus to make a decision that's best for her health if she's in a state that has a ban on late term.
Again, we could go around here, Jessica, but if you have the exceptions, life of the mother and health, you could have a lot of exceptions in whatever legislation is built.
This is where we are.
You see how they have absolutely no answer for this question at all?
Folks, do not let the left spin this argument on you in the word association game I mentioned before.
If the word is going to be radical, then you better turn it around on them and say, well, do me a favor.
So I understand what we're debating on the abortion issue.
So you and I are on the same page.
Let's start here first.
What limits on abortion do you support?
Let's start there.
Because if we start there, then we can have a conversation about why I support life from conception to natural death.
I understand that.
But if you're not willing to tell me, because I just told you my stance, but if you're not willing to tell me yours, then how are we debating?
In other words, let's make it simple for liberal canoes out there, right?
Say I like the Yankees and you like the Mets.
And I want to debate who's the better team.
I'm not going to go into the debate if I say I like the Yankees and you go, yeah, I don't really have an opinion.
Well, that's not a debate.
You see how they have no position at all?
How they never want to...
What limits do you...
Okay, so is it...
Just tell me any...
By the way, any limit.
Any limit.
Meaning, okay, the baby is out of the birth canal.
The umbilical cord is still connected, however.
After you snip the umbilical cord, does the baby get to limb?
Just ask for any limits.
Watch them do the foaming, the pissing in their diapers, the scream, the raging.
Watch them scratch themselves like this, bleeding at their face.
Just give me a limit.
I can't debate no position.
You see how Tarloff doesn't have that?
Oh, you know, this is exceedingly rare.
Okay, it's exceedingly rare.
So you're just saying this is a rare procedure, and you're saying if the mother's life is there.
Is that your position?
But you're willing to ban any other late-term abortion.
No, not that either.
So it's not about the life of the mother.
You just want to kill babies, just to be clear.
And of course, we all remember this one.
This was the Ku Klux Klan hood or blackface wearing governor of Virginia.
It's about, by the way, the Trump campaign should pump this out every single day.
This is the Democrat position, by the way.
Birth the child, the human being, not a fetus, it's a baby.
Birth the baby, and then you know what?
You make a decision if you want to whack it or not.
That sounds like homicide or something.
It's because it is.
They didn't say that, did they?
Watch yourself.
So in this particular example, if a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen.
The infant would be delivered.
The infant would be kept comfortable.
The infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired.
And then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.
Discussion?
What kind of discussion?
Am I missing something in that discussion?
He's a baby on the table.
What should we do?
What's the discussion?
You notice how he talks about the discussion without mentioning what the discussion is?
Maybe we should whack that baby.
Maybe you shouldn't.
That kind of sounds like a pretty shitty thing to do.
Don't let them frame the debate for you.
I just saw someone in the chat say that.
Do not let them frame the debate.
Every time they bring up abortion, say, I am not discussing this until you tell me what your position is.
When you tell me what your position is on abortion, no limits when the baby's born.
What is it?
A week?
It lives a week and then you can't kill it?
You tell me what your limits are and then we'll talk.
Alright, moving on.
So, on a lighter note, yesterday was, what would you guys, what's with the eclipse, man?
You all check out, they put on the glass, hey, look, the eclipse.
Listen, it was kind of cool.
My daughter came home, had a good time with it.
I did a little test.
You know Lucy the dog?
If you guys watch my locals videos, sometimes I put some Lucy videos up there.
I've got this mini golden doodle.
I never thought I'd be a dog person, folks, but it happened.
Evita, you a dog person?
I know she does.
Lucy's like Savita now a little too much.
I'm getting a little worried.
It's only a matter of time before she pees on her.
Lucy pees on everyone she falls in love with.
She never pees on you, right?
It's like close to you.
You just got to like pay attention.
So she comes up, you know, give me my pants, whatever.
So I love Lucy, but I want to do a test because everybody, you ever notice everybody gives animals superpowers and they're like, man, they're going to know the eclipse is coming and they're all going to freak out.
What are they, like X-Men?
I don't understand.
Like Cyclops, they have beams from their eyes, like the Dark Brandon thing?
Everybody gives animals superpowers.
I never understood.
Why don't animals...
If animals have superpowers, we don't.
Why are they animals and we're humans?
Why aren't dogs running the earth with all these magic superpowers?
So I let Lucy outside yesterday after the radio show when the partial, at least, eclipse hit Florida.
We didn't get the full thing like you all in Texas and Arkansas and elsewhere.
And I watched Lucy.
And what do you think she was doing, folks?
Let me tell you.
She was sitting there and she was like...
Like something was up.
And I was like, wow, this is crazy.
Just kidding!
She wasn't doing any of that shit.
She was chasing lizards around in the front trying to kill them.
Because that's what Lucy does.
So animals don't have any superpowers as far as I can tell in my single subject design yesterday.
But people were losing their freaking minds over this eclipse.
Did you see this clip from this reporter in Texas?
This is the Weather Channel.
Folks, I get it.
It was kind of cool.
Like, it was dark during the day.
But you can check the dark out every day, at night, when the day ends.
It's...
I don't know.
Listen to my...
Maybe I'm just being Danny Downer.
But this lady was very, very excited about the eclipse.
Good for her.
Maybe I'll enjoy a moment like this at some point in my life.
Check this out.
But I'll take it, I will take it.
Look at it.
Oh, my God.
We got it.
We got it.
Oh, my God.
Look out.
Woo.
That clip was only for Gabe, you know.
It was only for you.
But it didn't only drive media people crazy.
I guess that's like your thing.
I shouldn't.
Good for you.
I'm glad you...
To the reporter, I'm glad you had a good time.
Maybe get some video of me.
Some lady took video of me at a Morgan Wallen concert with Paula, and we were singing Chase and you to each other.
And I guess we look kind of excited, too.
So, come on.
You do you.
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
However, Sonny Hostin at Lunatic at The View.
Did you see this clip?
This is how crazy the lefties are.
And I want you to show this clip to your liberal friends.
Just to be clear, this is your thought leader on The View.
I think she's supposed to be a lawyer or something like that.
Here she is blaming the eclipse and all this other stuff on climate change.
Here's how bad...
Wait, don't even play it.
Here's how crazy...
Tony's like, no, no.
Yes, yes.
The other little roundtable people, Whoopi and Joy, the other crazies, this is when you know you're nuts.
If you watch the whole clip, which I'm not going to play the whole thing, even they're like, no, that's crazy.
This has nothing to do with climate change.
Everybody knew this was coming forever.
Here, take a look.
Awesome.
Also, I learned that the cicadas are coming.
Cicadas.
Cicadas, for the first time in like 100 years.
No, no, no.
Well, this is what I read.
There's two different kinds of cicadas coming.
Yes, two different times are coming.
The good cicadas and the bad cicadas.
But for the first time in many, many years.
No, every 17 years this happens.
Well, that's not what I read, but maybe, you know, maybe you know better.
But I will say all those things together...
would maybe lead one to believe that either climate change exists.
Bro, how crazy you have to be for Whoopi to shut you down.
Did you hear the thing in the beginning?
The cicadas.
You mean cicadas?
John Cicada?
Remember John Cicada?
I remember the Spanish version.
My roommate Eddie in college, he loved the Spanish version of John Cicada.
Tony, do you know John Cicada?
I only remember the Spanish version.
That's all he played all day.
Is she talking about John Ciccata?
Is there an outbreak of John Ciccata in karaoke bars?
What the hell is a Ciccata?
Folks, am I saying it wrong?
Because I was always told it was a Ciccata, not a Ciccata.
You know they make the sounds in the morning and wake you up?
I know John Ciccata.
Maybe John should partner up with Sonny and do a new release about the Sakata.
You, you realize we're debating morons every day, Folks, get serious here.
This is why you cannot be afraid to debate these idiots on important issues.
National security, defunding the police, abortion.
I want you to understand, they're idiots.
Remember when I was on Fox, I had that, what was it called, the rebuttal?
He used to call it the rebuttal.
Remember the rebuttal?
We had the rebuttal where we brought lefties on to debate them.
Some of you hated that segment.
Remember, Guy, we would get this feedback.
Stop letting these morons on the air.
And I would answer back to people, that's the point.
The whole point is to let liberals on the air say stupid stuff so we can see how dumb they are.
Don't ever be afraid of debating these idiots.
They have, seriously, probably like maybe a 10th, 11th grade education on the issue.
I'm dead serious.
They're really stupid.
What's that?
Folks, chatsters, pull the chat up here for a second.
I gotta see it on the screen, okay?
Chatsters, I'm throwing this out.
This is 100 Bacino.
I need you on the case.
This is a very serious thing right now.
Guy wants to bring back the rebutal.
Where we would debate liberals on the air on Fox.
He wants to bring it back to the podcast.
Maybe it's a Friday segment.
We bring a dopey lib on and debate them.
Is that a yes or a no?
It's totally up to you.
This is your decision.
It's your show.
Not a Zikana.
That's hilarious.
Folks, it's your call.
Yes.
Fuck yes.
Wow.
Fuck no.
The fucks cancel each other out there.
Yes.
Yes.
No.
Yes.
Bacino, you got to give us a count, but it looks to me...
Wow, there's a lot of F-bombs.
I think we might have broke the chat again on this one.
Chris, Chris, I think we broke your chat again.
Bocino, please give us the results, but it looks to me like the yes wins.
All right, I'll do it.
I'll bring them back.
We had a lot of fun doing that, but I'm telling you we got a lot of hate mail.
I'm just telling you.
Don't put these idiots on the air.
Put these idiots on the air.
That's a lot of yeses, folks.
I think the Bocino, let me know.
Anita, if you could keep your eyes on that, too.
It's the queen of the chat there.
Guys, get that.
Get me some numbers.
I need Bacino.
I need exact numbers.
If it's overwhelming, we'll do it.
Maybe it's like an impeachment.
We need like three fours or something like that.
Speaking of idiots here.
Gosh, you see.
How the hell are we 50 minutes into the show?
How is that?
I just started.
I just started five minutes ago.
How did 50 minutes pass?
Are we in some kind of time warp machine?
Time dilation.
I know.
I believe in that.
Time dilation.
When I talk about time dilation, producer Jim loses his mind.
Hey, here's what I mean.
This is another story that's important to me.
Again, flipping around.
Getting back to some serious stuff.
Folks, I've said often, because I'm not above self-criticism, getting the vaccine was the biggest mistake of my life.
I think about it every day.
I wind up taking like this natokinase and stuff and all this other crap because I'm really petrified about what went in me.
Now, I'm not making excuses for anything or anything like that.
Excuses and explanations are different.
But the explanation is, I had cancer at the time, and in order to get certain care, I had to make some bad choices.
I knew at the time they were bad choices, but I didn't want to die.
And it's not an excuse, it's an explanation, because I have to deal with it.
Some of you didn't get it.
You don't have to deal with that, but I do.
Some of you were smart.
Some of you had to take it for jobs, and we got this thing in us, and nobody really knows the long-term effect of this disaster.
And folks, it freaks me out every day.
I talk about it a lot.
I'm not afraid to throw myself under the bus because I screw shit up every day.
I wish at the time I would have had an easier out, but I didn't.
I had to make a moral compromise with myself, and it kills me.
It kills me that I've got this thing.
Now, I didn't get any boosters or anything like that, but that's besides the point.
I say that because the left, again, with the vaccine that are pushing the vaccine on you.
I just want you to understand what I said before.
These people are not principled, okay?
And me pointing out the hypocrisy here is not an effort to persuade liberals.
It's an effort to persuade the third person.
For all the liberals telling us now, take the vaccine and shut up.
I bring this up because there's an avian flu outbreak now.
And absolutely nobody trusts the government at all because they lied to us about things like the vaccine, masks, and the lab leak.
There's a great piece at the Wall Street Journal, highly recommended by Alyssa Finley, another great writer over there.
She talks about avian flu and the experts who cried wolf.
She's talking about how the Biden administration officials are saying that avian flu vaccines have already been developed.
Oh boy, here we go.
And could be rapidly manufactured.
But don't be surprised if Americans don't line up to get them.
Gee, you think?
She notes public health experts are blaming anti-vaxxers.
That's us, so evil anti-vaxxers.
Meanwhile, we're no such thing, keep in mind.
That's their label for us.
They're blaming us for sowing distrust and jabs.
But four years ago, these same people, along with the press, fueled skepticism about the Trump administration's effort to develop a vaccine.
During the summer and autumn of 2020, they warned the President was in a dangerous rush.
Turns out that some of this dangerous rush later on may have been true.
But that's not the point I'm trying to make now.
The point I'm trying to make now is these people on the left telling you, stick this thing in your arm.
They're the ones that destroyed the credibility of public health because they gave exact opposite messages before when Trump was in office showing you the message was not principled but was political.
Here's the receipts right here.
Believe nothing these public health people tell you.
They're telling you now take the jab.
They were the same people telling you don't take the jab before.
Why?
Because it's all politics with them all the time.
Receipts incoming.
Check this out.
So let's just say there's a vaccine that is approved and even distributed before the election.
Would you get it?
Well, I think that's going to be an issue for all of us.
If and when the vaccine comes, it's not likely to go through all the tests and trials that are needed to be done.
When we finally do, God willing, get a vaccine, who's going to take the shot?
Who's going to take the shot?
You're going to be the first one to say, put me, sign me up.
They now say it's okay.
And the question of whether it's real when it's there, that requires enormous transparency.
You've got to make all of it available to other experts across the nation so they can look and see.
So there's consensus this is a safe vaccine.
If the president announced tomorrow we have a vaccine, would you take it?
Only if it was completely transparent that other experts in the country could look at it.
Only if we knew all of what went into it.
If Donald Trump can't give answers and the administration can't give answers to these three questions, the American people should not have confidence.
But if Donald Trump tells us that we should take it, I'm not taking it.
Folks, understand the point I'm trying to make here.
This has nothing to do with pro or anti-vax, although I dressed that when I opened up the segment.
The public health infrastructure, the FBI, the military, and elsewhere, the upper levels of the military, faith in institutions is collapsing left and right.
Why is faith in the public health operation totally collapsed?
Because they say things based not on science, but pure politics.
The same idiots telling you to jam this thing in your arm now were the same exact people telling you before, I don't know, you better be careful about that thing.
None of this had anything to do with anything other than pure, ruthless politics.
This is why institutions are not credible anymore.
We have a four-year period if we win this election to clean house, folks.
Personnel or policy.
I've said this to people on the Trump team myself.
They know it.
Believe me, they understand.
Personnel or policy.
We have four years to clean this mess up.
It is salvageable, but it is going to be a major operation.
You have to go in and get rid of every single person in the government whose allegiance is not to the Constitution but to a political party.
Every single one of them.
You've got four years to do it.
And when the media starts whining about one person getting fired, fire two more.
Here, here's what I'm talking about.
Kyle Cheney yesterday in this tweet.
In the last election, we had a bunch of retired intelligence community people saying Hunter Biden's laptop was in fact a Russian plant.
Look, they're at it again.
This time retired generals.
As if faith in the FBI being lost, public health, faith in the intelligence community.
Now they want to destroy the reputation of the military too?
Just in.
Long list of retired generals has sided with special tyrant Jack Smith.
Might do the tyrant part in there.
On the argument of presidential immunity.
Filing a brief with SCOTUS. Here they are.
List goes on and on.
More.
Folks.
This is just the standard institutional bullshit.
Trying this Hayden again.
General Mike Hayden who can't control himself on social media at all.
Look at all these people.
Delving again.
Inter- Into Twitter activism for the left.
And you wonder why faith and institutions collapse.
Why people, if the FBI knocks on their door, are going to say, you know what, talk to my lawyer.
No, no, but we get it.
We get it.
Talk to my lawyer.
You wonder why avian flu.
They'll say, oh, listen, go and get our avian flu vaccine.
Folks, people are going to be skeptical.
I didn't do this.
You did it.
You and the public health infrastructure did it, and the intel community, by lying to people over and over and over again.
You have zero credibility.
The biggest mistake of my life was not trust.
I didn't trust the government at all.
But having to make this moral compromise where I had really no choice, and I almost wish at the time I would have just waited, even letting the disease get a little worse, and waited this thing out.
I will never forgive these people for what they did.
They lied to us.
And that's why nobody trusts them anymore.
