Both Trump And Biden Are Celebrating Last Night’s Debacle (Ep. 2285) - 07/12/2024
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Thank you.
Yo, what the hell happened last night?
Ladies and gentlemen, sometimes I'll send a tweet out, right?
Are we still calling them tweets?
I'm like, so confused.
X, Twitter, whatever.
I sent out a tweet last night, and it was, I didn't even really say too much.
I'm watching the beginning of whatever that was supposed to be, a press conference with bribing, whatever it is.
And I send out this tweet.
Language alert.
Sorry.
Like, what the fuck is happening?
The first 10 minutes of that, the guy introduces his vice president as Donald Trump.
He's all over the place.
There's word salads.
And I'm like...
I'm scared.
I'm scurred.
I'm scurred.
Why was I scurred?
Because I don't want this guy out of the race.
I'm like, I'm looking at Apollo.
We're like, what the fuck is happening?
What is happening?
It's all falling apart.
And then, I don't know what it is.
The caffeine kicks in, or who knows...
And he winds up going on this 30-minute filibuster.
No, he didn't answer a question coherently.
But he winds up speaking in Biden's semi-coherent sentences.
And because the bar is so low, everybody's like, yes!
And what was I saying, Justin?
Let's go, Brandon, baby!
I was like, do it, bro!
Get it done!
And he did it!
There it is, on the screen.
And he rescued it!
And I was so happy.
Yeah, he messed up at the end again, but it was like a shit sandwich.
The beginning sucked, the end sucked, but the middle, it was like a reverse shit sandwich, where the bread, and then there's like a thing in the middle.
He finally, in the middle, he kind of saved himself.
Last night was the best of both worlds.
The suck was horrible.
But because it wasn't enough suck to meet the low bar of suck we have in the Biden suck detector, he will survive probably another week or two until a superseding amount of suck happens that supersedes in a negative direction the low level of suck that we saw last night.
Oh, man.
What happened last night?
By the way, I knew this was good for us last night when Biden passed the Paula test.
What is the Paula test?
Anyone in the studio know?
They're like, we don't know.
It's because I've never told you before.
Like, you ever going to get to the...
Eventually, I will.
By the way, I'm going to do the beginning of my radio show today because I can't let the radio audience miss this.
My review of last night.
Folks, you having trouble sleeping or staying asleep?
I was last night.
I was so geeked up after this press conference.
Listen, I've been there.
It's not about just feeling tired the next day.
It's about the toll poor sleep can take on every aspect of your life.
But guess what?
There's hope on the horizon.
Comes in the form of beams, dream powder.
Stuff's been a game changer for me.
Seeing we're sleeping well, we're sharper, more focused, and ready to tackle whatever life throws our way.
And today...
My listeners get a special discount on Beam's Dream Powder.
It's a science-backed hot cocoa for sleep with no added sugar.
Better sleep's never tasted better.
Other sleep aids can cause the next day grogginess, but Dream contains a powerful, all-natural blend of reishi, magnesium, L-theanine, apigenin, and melatonin to help you fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up refreshed.

Let's get this freaking party started.
By the way, are you ready for the two shots?
So I come in this morning like, why are you wearing a white t-shirt and all this stuff?
I'm headed to the Morgan Wallen concert tonight in Tampa.
Nate Smith's opening, by the way, who's just the best.
Nate Smith, you ever hear that song, Bulletproof?
It's amazing.
So I walk in and Guy, who, by the way, has no filter whatsoever.
He has, right, Justin?
That guy on your shoulder that tells you don't say anything...
He killed that guy.
He murdered him in cold blood a long time ago.
He's like, you look like my dad.
I'm like, what do you mean?
I have a pair of dark cargo shorts.
It's going to be 95 freaking degrees or something in Tampa.
Justin wants me to put a fishing hat on, so I'm going out on the pond or something, going fishing.
It's hot.
It'll be 90. I jump out of plane.
It'll be 95 degrees.
I don't mind sweating, man.
I like a good sweat.
It's supposed to rain tonight, too.
And if you've never been to a concert in the rain, it's even better.
So Biden last night.
Ladies and gentlemen, the best of both worlds.
No diggity, no doubt.
Why?
Again, he was awful enough to...
That the talk of him being forced out and his approval rating is going to continue to tank.
But candidly, he was nowhere near as bad as the debate.
And whatever they gave him, a cup of coffee or whatever, I don't care to speculate, right?
Seemed to kick in halfway through.
Where he gave these long-winded filibuster type answers.
And I got to tell you, the strategy was smart.
The strategy was smart.
I'm serious.
They told him, whatever question you get to run out the clock, just go on a filibuster, totally unrelated, and they'll stop asking questions because they'll run out the time.
And it worked.
He passed the Paula test.
What's the Paula test?
Of course, I'm married to Paula.
I'm sitting there on the couch watching the debate with her.
I look over, and about 20 minutes in, what do I see?
Well, it's not so much what I saw, it's what I heard.
I heard...
She was sleeping!
Now, when Paula falls asleep, it means Biden did his job, which is to put America to sleep and stop talking about how bad he sucks.
See, here's the thing.
During the debate, even though it was later than the Biden press conference, lasted a lot later, Paula, who sometimes gets tired at night, was up the whole time because she was like, I can't believe how bad this is going for him.
She was, like, enmeshed in it, like...
This thing was so boring, it put her to sleep.
So I call this the Paula test.
If Paula falls asleep when Biden's talking, he has done his job.
So last night he did his job, but he did his job for us too.
Chat, chat folks.
Bacino, get on the case right now.
I'll be watching.
Am I right or am I wrong?
That last night was great for us.
He sucked bad enough to continue to destroy his reputation and the polls, but he didn't suck bad enough to get out of the race.
Who thinks I'm right?
Just Bacino on the case, please, if you're around today.
So let's go through a couple of things.
I'm going to get to some lowlights because, of course, there were no freaking highlights from last night.
It was a total disaster.
There wasn't a single answer.
Yes, yes, yeah, look at what I have created.
F, yes, yes, absolutely not.
I don't think there's a single no in there.
You know I'm right.
We called it yesterday, did we not?
A couple of things before we get to the lowlights.
You gotta read the news strategically.
You know I'm big on that.
This is my job.
I have a fake job, not a real job.
So I get to read the news strategically.
Something happened.
Did you see a lot of people at the Juneteenth celebration at the White House?
Remember when Biden was like robotically trying to bop around and everybody was like, look at this weirdo.
He's doing the Reverend Cain again.
You remember that?
The Juneteenth thing.
Do you notice just yesterday after the press conference, they said, oh, a bunch of people at the Juneteenth celebration noticed something is off with Biden.
Go look at the headlines.
You'll see him.
They're there.
Really?
Folks, why does that matter?
I told you Jim Clyburn and the Democrat black vote are one of the three key elements that will assist in pushing this guy out of the race.
The fact that after the presser, a number of people who attended the Juneteenth celebration said Biden's not all there.
Folks, read between the lines.
That is the very powerful black Democrat community sending a hint that we don't have a lot more time left, Joe.
Wow!
That may be a record.
783 votes, too.
That's a lot of votes.
Thank you, Bacino.
The legend, Bacino.
One other thing.
Last night, the bar for Biden is now so low that, folks, I would expect more of this.
You have to understand that if he shows up And just basically breathes and doesn't fall off the stage that the press will declare this.
Not the press because some of them want him out now too because they're afraid.
The Biden team will declare it a victory.
So going forward, forget standards anymore.
12 inches is not 12 inches anymore.
With Biden, that can mean, especially with Hunter, that can mean a few different things.
But 12 inches on the bar now, you know, the ruler's now six inches, and it'll be one.
If he just shows up, it's going to be okay.
One more point.
Obama and Pelosi are now, according to multiple reports, strategizing behind the scenes on getting this guy out.
I told you that was coming.
You're going to hear it through Axelrod.
I'm going to play you a clip in a minute showing you.
Again, you're not wasting your freaking time.
Let's get this some clips.
So, the shit sandwich.
Here's how it started out.
Last night, he opens up the presser.
He's not two minutes in.
This is when I tweeted out that.
What the is happening?
And it went nuclear.
I think the thing's got like three million something impressions or whatever.
It's crazy.
He opens up the presser.
He introduces Kamala Harris into the sentence, but he says Vice President Trump instead.
But that's not the interesting part.
Well, it is, but it isn't.
The interesting part is his Secretary of State, Tony Blinken, in the front row.
His reaction, which was caught on video.
This is real, by the way.
Check this out.
The consideration is...
Oh, what happened?
No, that's not the full one.
Come on, play it.
Watch when he introduces him.
Play it again.
The consideration is...
Alright, you gotta find this video.
Bottom line is he freaking loses his marbles.
Again, you'll see it.
And for Tony Blinken, these little micro-expressions he makes, you'll notice he's done with this guy too.
Keep in mind, this is his inner sanctum.
This is a guy right here who absolutely loves it.
He's like the John Kirby, Kareem Jean-Pierre type.
He sacrificed his entire reputation for this guy.
Work on that.
You got it?
I don't know.
I think maybe...
I forget it.
You guys kind of killed my point on that.
All right.
Here he goes, Reverend Cain style.
This is another thing this guy can't stop doing.
This is indicative, ladies and gentlemen, of some kind of cognitive disorder.
He has this emotional kind of affect problem where he goes randomly from this creepy, like, kid-sniffing whisper he does.
How many times have they told this guy, stop whispering?
You look like a freaking weirdo.
Does it matter to him?
No, he doesn't anyway.
Then he goes from whispering to this weird yelling where it's like, it's not that he's yelling, honestly, that bothers me.
Politicians yell all the time.
It's that he yells at the most inappropriate time and it's so inappropriate to what's going on in the emotional rollercoaster of the room.
Watch this.
The United States of America.
What the hell are we doing?
What are we doing?
You guys are knocking it out of park.
You missed all that.
Like, that's the whole...
Did you guys cut any of this stuff right?
Okay, we're 0 for 2. All right, here's the next one.
Fox News put this one together.
He did this other thing last night, too.
He does this anyway, at any rate thing.
Once you see this, you'll never unsee this.
When he does anyway or at any rate, he...
Are you guys playing this in my ear?
Hey, everybody time out.
You're killing my show!
Time out!
Okay.
You got the anyway thing?
Okay.
Getting a little annoyed.
When he does this anyway, and at any...
Who's our...
Is Kraken?
He's going to forget it.
Kraken's going to be on the case right now.
He's definitely the HR rep.
He's going to be like, oh my gosh, you better give him a raise after tomorrow.
When he does his thing, he loses his place.
And when he loses his place, he has to do this kind of mental tick.
So he says, well, anyway, at any rate, this was him halfway through.
Check this out.
Look, folks, this is a...
Well, anyway, in the next debate, I'm not going to be traveling in the 15 time zones a week before.
Anyway, I'm catching hell from my wife for that.
Anyway...
It wasn't about just, anyway, read what his objective is.
And anyway...
But then again, they're better than a lot of other people here, too.
But anyway.
You'll never unsee that.
Folks, when he does that, it's not an accident.
He did all of the things he did last night.
Excuse me.
All of the things he did last night are indicative of the fact that he has a very serious cognitive disorder.
He does this inappropriate emotion.
For those of you, anyone in the chat, sadly, this is not funny stuff.
This is nothing to joke about.
Anyone in the chat have a family member with some kind of cognitive dementia-related disorder?
Anyone?
You know that they do this.
I'm not going to say what or who, but I have people close to me, sadly, who have been through this.
And this is what they do.
They go from elation and happiness to sadness from...
Not so much whispering, but yelling to crying.
It's very strange.
It's hard to get your arms around because there's no longitudinal connection to the emotion.
You know, you're watching like some Hallmark movie and you're like, oh, the crescendo, people start getting all emotional.
That's not Biden.
The Hallmark movie plays in 10 seconds.
And then he does this other thing, the anyway, any rate.
We called this months ago.
It's when he loses his place.
He's got this safety mechanism where he's pretending he made a voluntary decision to change the conversation from one thing to another.
And then the misplacement of names.
He called Putin, Zelensky, Trump, Harris, Harris, Trump.
The guy can't keep his head on straight.
And then this happened too.
This is a hat tip to Great Maze Moore.
He's a fantastic follow, by the way.
This is two clips.
So if you're listening on Apple or Spotify, this is two clips back-to-back.
It's cut.
But they're about...
50 seconds or so apart.
First he says he doesn't want to meet with Putin, and then he says the exact opposite in the exact same paragraph like he forgot what he just said.
This guy's a national security nightmare.
Check this out.
Is Putin ready to talk?
I'm not ready to talk to Putin.
I'm prepared to talk to any leader who wants to talk, including if Putin called me and wanted to talk.
Folks, what the hell is happening?
What is happening?
This guy's the President of the United States.
There's a part of me that doesn't even want to harp too much on what happened last night.
But folks, I'm in a really bad spot.
Folks in the chat, you understand?
Like, you're my crew, right?
You're my hardcore P1s, right?
You're with me.
Do you understand the problem I'm having right now?
In my head, I'm all let's go, Brandon, because I need this guy to stay in the race.
Because the national security implications of him or any other Democrat winning are severe.
But then again, in my head, keeping him in the race even for four more months has national security implications of itself.
Actually, it's still January.
I don't know what to do.
I would just rather run against this guy who gives us our best shot and take a chance.
But I'm not going to pretend as your humble here podcast host to have easy answers to this.
You know, do we not cover it so we don't add to the fire and he stays in longer?
But then, you know, I feel like I'm doing you an injustice.
Imagine tuning into the show today and I'm talking about the Yankees game last night.
I mean, this is serious stuff.
The guy gave a major global press conference on NATO and completely humiliated the United States.
But the bar's so low that everybody thought it was a success.
It's insane.
I don't want you to ever forget, by the way, the serious national...
Let's just switch to serious mode here.
National security implications of what's going on right now.
You may say, well, why don't we get him out now then, Dan?
Why do you want him to stay in?
Because the alternative is worse, Kamala Harris.
We are really stuck until January.
Until hopefully, hopefully, please God, and I'm not using his name in vain, we have a different president and his initials are DJT. We are in a very dangerous situation.
I'm going to show you what I mean coming up in a minute.
It was a guest on Joe Rogan that blew everybody away.
I've seen this woman before, by the way, all over social media platforms about what nuclear war would look like.
She's got this book out that's gone nuclear, pun intended.
You'll see what I mean coming up in a second here.
Quick break and I'll get back to it.
Hey, it was really hot July 4th for me and my family.
We explored the western U.S. Hadn't been back since last year.
We hiked, relaxed, we ate really well.
We had our fair share of meat on the grill during the holiday break, thanks to our friends at Omaha Steaks.

Great food.
Check them out.
Folks, this is very serious.
We are in a real pickle from now till January.
We are.
And I don't want...
I'll say this with the purest of hearts and absolute candor.
I would never put the safety and security of the globe at risk for an easy political win, and I know you wouldn't either.
I mean, given two choices, nuclear annihilation or political victory, it's pretty easy.
However, again, with a pure heart, Whether we get rid of Biden and he resigns tomorrow or not, we are still in a perilous national security situation because the Kamala Harris alternative is a thousand times worse or bringing in someone completely new to the position as the nominee is maybe just as bad.
I don't know what to do.
Team Biden has the world right now in a stranglehold and no one knows what to do.
There are no easy answers right now.
Here's what makes it even more dangerous.
There was a press conference with Karine Jean-Pierre the other day.
This may be one of the single most disturbing answers you will ever hear from someone alleging to be a press secretary.
Karine Jean-Pierre is asked by Peter Doocy, hey, press reports indicate that Joe Biden can't function after 4 p.m.
So what do you do if he gets an 11 p.m.
phone call about some nuclear launch, which the probability, granted, is low, but it's not zero.
Matter of fact, it's not even close to zero.
Listen to this insane answer.
Check this out.
He also says he's sharpest before 8 p.m.
So say that the Pentagon at some point picks up an incoming nuke.
It's 11 p.m.
Who do you call?
The first lady?
He has a team that lets him know of any news that is pertinent and important to the American people.
No, folks!
Well, yes, he has a team, but no, he doesn't have a team for a nuclear attack that is going to make this decision for him.
Here, from congress.gov, who has command and control of nuclear forces?
Quote, the U.S. president has sole authority to authorize the use of nuclear weapons.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's kind of a big freaking deal.
The press secretary thinks there's a team making this decision?
I mean, I guess technically she's not lying.
There's a team of people advising.
There's nobody making this decision but him.
My point is, if he can't function after 4 p.m.
and can't make that decision, I want you to ask yourself a question nobody seemed to ask after this presser.
Then who makes it?
Listen, I'm not messing with you.
This isn't funny.
Biden gets up at 11 p.m.
and say a tactical nuke.
A tactical nuke.
But a tactical battlefield nuke is launched in Ukraine.
Starting effectively a nuclear war over there.
Doesn't mean it's going to go global.
And tactical nukes are different than the intercontinental ones.
But still, obviously, on a DEF CON scale, we're up to probably two or one at that point.
What if Biden's in one of his delusions and it takes him an hour to shake him up and get whatever drugs they need into him?
No, who's making the call?
Karine Jean-Pierre said he has a team.
He's not allowed to delegate that authority to anyone else.
So I'm walking you through a really horrible scenario.
What if the team realizes this guy's not awake and we can't wake him up.
He's having one of his episodes.
It's 11 o'clock at night.
We shook him out of bed.
Who starts fighting amongst each other about who's going to make the call?
Oh, you think this has never happened before?
You ever see the video what happened after Reagan got shot?
Haig and everyone else, go look at that.
You think the world's got this all down?
Folks, I was a Secret Service agent on 9-11.
You think the system works seamlessly?
Oh boy!
When the statute of limitations wears out on that, I think a lot of people are going to talk about what a mess it was.
You think if that happens, Biden's going to be the one sitting there going, I got this?
Bullshit!
Now, this is really important because it involves the annihilation of the entire globe if this thing were to escalate quickly.
Oh, you're exaggerating, am I? You ever hear Annie Jacobson spin all over?
If you go to TikTok or X or whatever, her videos are all over the place.
She wrote this book about what nuclear war actually looks like.
Not what you think it looks like.
Not what you saw in Some of All Fears.
Not what you saw in The Book of Eli.
What nuclear war actually looks like.
And ladies and gentlemen, however bad you think nuclear war is, I promise you, it's a thousand times worse.
Hat tip, Joe Rogan.
This is just a short one-minute clip from the Rogan show.
I got this from Western Lensman, too.
Pick this up.
Another great follow account.
But here's Annie Jacobson talking about exactly what it looks like.
Folks, you really think the next few months you're comfortable with Biden as the only man whose finger's on the trigger?
You think a team is going to rescue him?
They can't.
They don't have the legal authority to do it, and they'd be fighting with each other.
Watch this.
I began to think what happens if deterrence fails, that idea of prevention.
What happens?
And I took that question to the people who advise the president, who work at STRATCOM, who, you know, command the nuclear sub-forces and learned that it doesn't end well.
Not only does it not end well, 5 billion people are dead at the end of 72 minutes.
Jesus.
There are hundreds of thousands of people in nuclear command and control who practice 24-7, 365, what would happen if deterrence failed and we had a nuclear war.
They are practicing this, Joe.
And it's like, talk about being behind the veil.
No one knows.
It's why I think the response to this book, it's been out for three months, has been so extraordinary.
And from both sides of the aisle.
Because people now are beginning to realize if nuclear war begins, it doesn't end until there is a nuclear holocaust.
Someone in the chat just said she was on Sean Ryan's show, too.
He's great, by the way.
Fantastic podcast.
That's where I initially saw her.
Clips.
I watched the show, but I didn't see the whole thing.
That's where I saw her clips.
Annie Jacobson's her name.
The book has, again, gone crazy.
Because people can't...
It's hard to fathom that what she's saying is actually true.
And by the way, you don't even want to be a survivor after a nuclear war.
Folks, granted, this isn't one of these crazy shows where we're going to start making shit up to scare you.
The likelihood of nuclear war because of mad, mutually assured destruction is low.
The point is, it's not zero.
If you ever read Nassim Taleb's book about fat tails and books called The Black Swan, these events that have very low probability but absolutely catastrophic outcomes, you better pay attention to them.
Why do people, you know, get extra scared on planes?
Meanwhile, you know, you absolutely know the likelihood of a plane accident are far lower than you get in a car wreck.
You get in a car every day, no one thinks anything about that, because it's really frightening, and you think, well, the chances of me surviving a car wreck are pretty high, but if I get in a plane crash, it's probably, that's the end.
It's a low probability event with an absolutely catastrophic outcome.
You're comfortable with Biden in charge?
Folks, the guy hasn't had a cabinet meeting in what?
15 months or something like that?
What just came out?
I got that.
The guy's brain is fried.
We did some other weird thing in the Oval yesterday.
I got a lot more left.
And, and...
Morning Schmo confirms exactly what I told you.
You ain't wasting your time here with the D. Bongino show.

All right, back to the show.
I don't know what this was yesterday, him in the Oval Office, but again, just compounding the problem.
Everyone around the world is seeing this all the time.
Look at this.
What is he doing?
Is he celebrating a field goal?
He's like, look, Notre Dame wins!
He kicked that three-pointer at the extra point.
I don't know.
What is he doing?
Does anybody know what he's doing?
I don't know what he's doing.
Nobody knows...
This guy's doing ever.
He's like, yes, look, we kicked a three.
There he is.
Auburn won the game.
He's like, War Eagle, what is going on here?
Now we find out even the insiders are bailing on him.
This is why last night was so important and a win for everyone.
We need this cat in a race.
This cat can't leave.
I'm forbidding it.
The voters should decide, and Joe Briben should feel the wrath of the voters, but we got...
Kraken, they're bad.
Kraken, he's filing reports right now.
He's filing reports.
What Kraken doesn't know, the HR rep is Paula.
I have a certain amount of influence with the HR rep.
Kraken's filing...
I'm going to give you an email, Kraken.
You can start sending reports in right now.
This is a problem for us, though.
Good news, bad news.
Good news last night wasn't that horrible by very low standards for Joe Biden.
Here's the bad news.
Insiders are now talking, folks.
Listen, one thing about Team Bribing.
I'm serious on this one.
They have been very good at stopping leaks.
Very good.
Remember with the Trump administration?
These clown swampies on the inside, the Vindmans and these other goofballs, they were like, Trump drinks Coke, not Pepsi, and it was like a big leak.
You didn't see that...
You didn't see that out of team bribing.
Now look at this, NBC News.
No one involved in the effort thinks he has a path.
Biden insiders say the writing is on the wall.
Folks, I'm going to stick to my original assertion where I've been for two years now.
Biden will not be the nominee.
It is only a matter of time.
Our goal is to extend the timeline and keep him in as long as possible because he is the easiest one to beat and cutesy time is freaking over.
The negative stories, of course, are not going to stop.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
I'm assuming, Evita, that's a pretty liberal paper.
Very liberal.
Okay.
Evita knows Milwaukee well.
Milwaukee Radio Station said it agreed to edit the interview with Joe Biden.
Folks, the negative stories are not going to stop with this guy.
It's just going to be an endless litany.
So if you're thinking after last night, well, Dan, don't defend him too much because then we're going to prop up his approval rating.
Folks, I'm sorry, but stop the nonsense.
That's not going to happen.
Biden is an awful candidate who is one fall or stumble.
I'm not wishing that on anyone.
I'm not saying that.
I'm just telling you he is one fall or big verbal faux pas away from screwing it up.
And by the way, we've got a relief pitcher in the bullpen.
Who?
Mariano Rivera?
No, I wish I did.
I love Mariano.
Enter Samet.
You know what it is?
You know what our fail-safe is?
Say Biden, I don't know, they give him a couple cups of coffee or whatever.
John, send him some blackouts.
Keep him going.
John, blackout right to the White House.
Give him the cinnamon French toast.
We need that.
We need him up, okay?
Our ace in the hole is there's another debate in September.
If he makes it to September, which is possible, if he makes it to September, you really believe he's going to perform better than You know, a couple months from now than he did in the last debate.
Yes, Vita says, of course it's going to be worse.
So folks, don't sweat it.
There is no saving this guy.
Your goal and your only goal, horse blinkers, man, is to keep this cat in the race as long as possible.
Hashtag D-Bide.
Let's go, Brandon.
Let's go, Brandon.
Yes!
Yes, there it is.
Let's go, Brandon, kids.
Dark Brandon put the little laser eye beams like he's Superman.
Hey, CNN is reporting something that I actually was kind of unaware of.
I had not heard this story before.
I got a lot of good little birdies, but this one I haven't heard.
I'm going to be straight with you.
Apparently he's not had a cabinet meeting in a really long time.
I guess what he's trying to do, my humble opinion, is he's trying to prevent leaks.
Because these cabinet meetings have principles and then there's usually a backup.
If you ever watch a cabinet meeting in the Roosevelt Room in the White House, you'll see.
Pay attention now when you see it.
The cabinet officials are the principles.
be at the table and Biden will be right there in the middle and then look behind them.
You'll see people seated along the window.
Those are the backups.
The Biden team, I think, is afraid of his own cabinet now.
I think they're afraid that the backups or the principals are going to leak at the bad mental condition he's in.
So he's saying he hasn't had a meeting in a while.
But here's the kicker.
Even when he did have a meeting, he makes his own cabinet officials submit questions in advance.
Folks, I got to tell you, I worked in a White House for five years.
I've never heard anything like this.
This is the craziest thing I have heard about cabinet meetings.
Check this out.
According to two sources, before cabinet meetings that the president attends, cabinet officials will submit their questions and talking points, key talking points and bullet points that they plan to present to the president.
In these closed-door meetings, this is how one source described it.
They said the entire display is kind of an act.
They would come and say, hey, the president is going to call on you about 25 minutes in and ask this question.
What are the bullet points that you'll respond with?
Folks, I'm telling you, yes, I was not a political operative in the White House.
I'm not trying to fake the funk on you.
That's an end, by the way.
Not that it matters on this show, but you get the point.
I've never heard anything like this.
You're on the road with these people all the time, these staffers.
You work in the White House five years and you travel on the road with people 200 days.
You kind of get familiar with the workings of the White House.
That's how I was telling you yesterday about Johnny Favreau, the podcast host who's friends with Obama but was a speechwriter.
I remember that cat walking around.
I mean, I'm not buddies with him or anything like that, but you get intimately familiar with the workings of this place because you see these people all the time.
I've never heard of anything like this.
They have to submit their questions in advance And by the way, another Dan Bongino show conspiracy theory comes true.
Michael, you have any idea what the batting average is now?
What it's up to?
A thousand for a thousand, kids!
It just keeps getting better.
I said the other day, and someone started attacking me on...
Was it that...
Whatever, that Krasenstein cat or whatever.
I don't even remember.
But I just mauled him.
I just put up that FBI raid thing, and he got quiet awfully quick.
It was weird how that happened.
Um...
Imagine being a liberal and getting raided by the FBI. Michael, how bad do you have to be to be a liberal and get raided by the Now, if I got raided by the FBI, everybody would be like, yeah, of course, it's the FBI. I mean, and Dan's a conservative, like a MAGA guy, right?
I mean, Avita, would that even be a story?
I don't even think Avita would cover it on our new show.
She'd be like, yeah, Dan got raided.
It wouldn't be.
Everyone would be.
But to be a liberal?
Like, you really got to be messed up.
But everybody told me it was a conspiracy theory when I said the Obamas don't like the Bidens.
They're going to turn on them, and David Axelrod will be the mouthpiece.
I'm serious.
I was attacked for that.
Oh my gosh, he doesn't know what he's talking about.
Okay, here's the morning schmo telling you exactly what I just told you, that Axelrod is the mouthpiece for Obama.
Check this out.
I will say one thing that we do have to underline here, just so viewers can follow what's going on behind the scenes, is The Biden campaign and many Democratic officials do believe that Barack Obama is quietly working behind the scenes to orchestrate this.
And if Joe Biden believes that, That's not going to get him out of the race any faster.
Anytime David Axelrod attacks him, David Axelrod ensures that Joe Biden will dig himself in another day.
Anytime the pod bros say something nasty about Joe Biden, which they have repeatedly said nasty things about Joe Biden before the debate, after the debate, every time they do that, He digs in a little bit further.
Chat folks, chat folks, do I steal you wrong?
Do you feel like you're wasting your time here?
Or do you feel like, oh shit, we were three weeks ahead of it again.
Yeah, yeah, you were.
Who's he talking about?
Anyone in the chat know, pod bros?
Anyone know who he's talking about?
He's talking about Johnny Favs, who I just told you about.
Johnny Favs was a speechwriter for Obama.
He hosts this really popular liberal podcast.
Honestly, I'm sorry.
Do you guys know what the name of it is?
I'm not trying to be silly about it.
It's popular.
I'm not trying to do that Mariah Carey J-Lo.
I don't know her.
But I forget what it's called.
It's a liberal podcast.
Super popular.
It's up there with the young turds.
What is it called?
Do you know?
Pod Save America.
Yes, thank you, Avina.
That's where liberals go.
Johnny Favs is one of the hosts.
That's who Scarborough's talking about.
Scarborough was all in on Team Biden.
He's cracking a little bit now, but he still feels like he wants to preserve his access because he got that interview the other day.
So he's playing it both ways.
He knows exactly what I'm telling you.
Listen.
Enough of this.
Just listen to Axelrod and Johnny Favs, and you'll know exactly where Obama's going.
And Obama's opinion matters because Obama controls what?
The donors.
The donors.
The donors are the only thing that's going to force this guy out.
By the way, we were ahead of all this.
You're seeing an absolute collapse in the black community too.
That Juneteenth release from last night.
At a bunch of attendants at the Juneteenth ceremony at the White House.
Thought Biden was off.
That's not an accident, folks.
Nothing that happens in the liberal media is an accident.
You digging me?
Remember Hawk to a girl?
You get me?
You get me?
I'm telling you, nothing happens by accident.
The black community and prominent black Democrats and donors, who are big voters in the Democrat Party, just by sheer numbers, are starting to send a message that Biden, we want you out, which is a problem for us because we want him in.
Wait till this starts to get out there, by the way.
Now, proving again you are at least three weeks, if not six months to a couple years ahead of the news cycle, wait till black Democrats start finding out that Biden was a fake civil rights activist.
I'm going to play this video for you in a second, this side-by-side.
You're going to say, Dan, we've seen this before.
That's the point.
That's why I'm playing it.
You already know this.
I'm telling you, there are a ton of black Democrat voters who have no idea Biden had to publicly apologize for stealing the valor of civil rights activists.
Why is this a big deal?
Because putting it out on this show is not going to reach liberals.
We have a largely conservative audience.
Wait till the liberals start putting this out because they want Biden out.
Check this out.
When I market civil rights movements, I did not march for the 12-point program.
I marched with tens of thousands of others to change attitudes.
And we changed attitudes.
I was not an activist.
I was not out marching.
I was not down in Selma.
I was not anywhere else.
That's another Maze Moore gem.
Thank you, Maze.
I get it.
You in the chat, you're like, oh damn, we've heard that a thousand times.
Bingo!
I'm telling you, the left hasn't.
Just like they're hearing for the first time that Biden's got some kind of dementia.
You're way ahead of this stuff.
That's been out there for decades.
It's starting to creep into the black community now.
They're starting to figure out that this guy's full of shit.
That not only is he bad for the economy and bad for the border, he's bad for them in general, their communities.
Folks, I'm not saying I agree or disagree with these.
I think the criticisms within the black community are valid.
I'm just telling you that they are starting to see this guy as the cancer he is.
I want you to listen to this panel.
This is the Daily Show.
You're not going to meet a more left-wing.
Isn't that the one Jon Stewart hosts sometimes?
The Daily Show is the leftist of left-wings.
It makes Jimmy Fallon and these other guys look centrist.
They did a panel on The Daily Show asking black voters who they were going to vote for.
Notice the audible groans as the panel says this.
Okay, so who will you be voting for in 2024?
Daryl?
Do I have to say his name?
I don't want to, but more than likely it's going to be Trump.
Yeah, unbelievable.
Unbelievable.
Who are you going to be voting for?
Biden.
And then Victor?
I'm with her.
Oh, Biden, okay.
Trump.
Eric Trump?
Biden.
Biden?
Trump.
Okay, we're an even split, which, yeah, I didn't see that coming.
So, do you think there's going to be a big shift, any sort of change?
I think there's going to be a big shift.
Me too.
Big shift?
Yes.
Really?
Okay.
Now, Justin's right.
In the interest of time, I had to cut that.
Now, Justin's like, crack it.
It's okay, buddy.
It's okay.
He's right.
I cut that.
The second half, they go on and say, the Democrats promised us all this stuff.
Like, nothing ever happens.
They've got a huge seismic problem.
Do not overlook the Juneteenth story.
Politicians and Democrat activists are hearing from people, regular working American citizens, just like those folks, that, hey, we don't like Biden.
They're hearing the same stuff you're hearing.
You ever hear of The Breakfast Club?
Hugely popular radio show.
Has a big black audience.
Has a big urban audience.
It's not just folks who are black who listen.
A lot of people listen.
It's hugely popular.
The Breakfast Club is an extremely influential show.
Again, you know the left better than they know you.
Because we expose you to what they're listening to, but they will never expose you.
Ever, ever their leftist to what you're listening to.
Here's The Breakfast Club finally figuring out, again, that unfettered illegal immigration has really real consequences for budgets, public safety, and all that stuff in their community.
Check this out.
Bottom line is when Joe Biden got elected, he said he wanted to fast track four million undocumented residents to full citizenship.
Black people completely ignored it.
I spoke on it.
I said, do you know why he went to fast track four million?
Because he know he not going to do nothing for us.
We ain't going to be motivated to vote for him November.
So what he's going to do is have these migrants already set up with citizenship so they can replace the black vote that he loses.
The migrants are being put in our communities on purpose, New York and Chicago on purpose, because they are what?
The two blackest cities in America.
They're the two largest cities in America.
They're the two most politically conscious black communities in America.
So if we can wash out the black with the brown in New York, if we can wash out the black with the brown in Chicago, Philly don't stand a chance.
It is...
That ain't my show.
That's their show.
Again, you understand liberal.
I'm not saying that guy's a liberal, but you understand liberals because we watch what they're doing and we analyze it.
They have no comprehension whatsoever of what the other side is thinking because they think, oh, those guys are Nazis and racist.
Okay, whatever, dude.
This is why, right now, at least in public opinion, we'll see if it translates into the polls.
That's why we're kicking their asses.
Do you see this guy, Tim Miller, by the way?
This tweet is incredible.
The left, the black community, all of these communities right now, many that have voted Democratic by just sheer numbers, are starting to figure out now they've been lied to about everything all the time.
And they're really pissed off.
It's Tim Miller.
I think he's a leftist.
I don't really know this, Kevin.
Here's the galling exchange he notes with Ezra Klein.
Ezra Klein is, you know, pretends to be a journalist.
It's about his conversations with top Democrats.
He notes, go to the second part of this.
He notes at one point that all of this stuff they keep saying that Donald Trump is an existential threat to democracy, it's all made up.
They're making it up.
He says it right here.
I've had top Democrats say to me, I don't know why all these Democrats who think Donald Trump is an existential threat to democracy are acting the way they are.
But the reason I'm acting that way is because I don't think that.
They're just lying to you, man!
These people are bullshitting you.
It's finally starting to seep in all these Democrat communities that they've been lied to, man.
And then what about the narrative out there also?
That Biden somehow is some man of honor and dignity.
That's all bullshit too.
That's falling apart right now.
They've been covering for Biden the whole time.
Now it's starting to seep out in the media as well that Biden's been a liar his entire time.
That Biden has been a grifter and a loser and a bum and an influence peddler.
You think this Hunter Biden scheme is new?
Did you ever hear about the Hunter Biden, Joe Biden bank thing that went on in the past?
Oh, you know about it.
Is this another Maysmore gem?
Listen to this one.
Here's Biden back in the day about a different scam you probably don't even know about if you're a leftist, but you know about it on the right.
Wait till this gets out there.
Check this out.
In retrospect, wasn't it inappropriate for someone like you in the middle of all this to have your son collecting money from this big credit card company while you were on the floor protecting its interests?
Absolutely not.
But there were former White House aides of yours who tried to warn you about the potential conflicts of interest.
Nobody warned me about a potential conflict of interest.
Nobody warned me about that.
And at the same time...
George Kent, the State Department official, testified that he raised it to you.
No, he didn't say me.
To your staff.
I stand corrected.
I never heard that once.
To your staff.
And your staff told him he has no bandwidth.
Well, my son was dying.
I guess that's why he said it.
All of this stuff is going to come out.
Now, why am I playing this for you now?
Understandably, folks in the chat, Apple, Spotify, Rumble crowd, you may be saying, and I'm encouraging you not to, I'm not wasting your time here, okay?
Look, I got Justin, am I right?
We have more.
I have so much left here.
I have like the GARM stuff I haven't even got to.
I promise you there's more there.
I'm not wasting your time.
The reason I'm putting this out there is to remind you that you already know this.
Because the Democrats, I'm not, I didn't say that wrong.
The Democrats looking to get rid of Biden are now going to start filtering this stuff out.
Hunter Biden on the board of the bank we just played, Hunter Biden Burisma, and your liberal friends, if you have any, I certainly don't anymore, are going to say to you, holy shit, I just found out the other day Biden was a fake civil rights activist.
Oh, really?
I just found out they had a problem back in Delaware with family members on the board of the bank.
Oh, you just found out about that?
I just found out Hunter worked in Ukraine while Joe Biden was the vice president and point man in Ukraine.
Oh, really?
You just knew about that now?
No.
I found out Biden lied about getting arrested seeing Nelson Mandela and marching in the civil rights movement.
All of this stuff is going to come out on their shows.
Now, if you're missing a video show, you guys got to check this out.
It's going to come out on their shows.
On their shows.
You have been way, way, way ahead of this.
Okay, listen, I got to bolt a little bit early today.
I'm going to do the beginning of the radio show, and I got to travel, do some stuff.
We'll be at the RNC next week, Tuesday through Friday.
Avito will be launching a show there.
We're going to have primetime stuff.
Anita, spread the word, please.
And McGroins, you guys are my P1s of P1s.
You're the generals in the Bongino Army.
By the way, Paul is working on a shirt for you guys.
You asked for it.
So, you know, Paul is there for you.
Customer service, that's what we do.
Tuesday through Thursday we'll be there.
We'll have the regular 11 a.m.
Eastern podcast.
We'll also have some primetime coverage and a radio show.
Producer Jim will be there.
So if you go into the RNC, come by and say hello.
If you've met us in the past.
And if you're going to be in Tampa tonight at the Morgan concert, say hello to us tonight too.
We always love hanging with people.
I promise we're just normal people.
I ask you one thing, folks.
Please don't be disappointed when you meet me.
That's my biggest fear.
It's true.
I meet people and I always think like they're expecting me to say something really profound.
And I really don't have anything other than hello, thanks for...
So I promise, I love you to death.
I'm just not that impressive in person.
I'm just a normal guy.
So if you agree not to be disappointed, we can chat forever.
