Dan Bongino.
Welcome to the Bongino Brief.
I'm Dan Bongino.
So, Tucker, you and I accurately, sadly, tragically, did a podcast interview a while ago on your show, which, TuckerCarlson.com, they can check out all your material.
By the way, I'll be with Tucker September 11th in Tulsa.
If you want tickets, TuckerCarlson.com.
And we were talking about how the left is insane.
They have no emergency brake on their behavior.
And you had mentioned how, well, they didn't let him govern last time.
They sick the military on him, lawfare.
Well, what's the next logical step?
Potential assassination.
You and I were called crazy lunatics by Daniel Arkin on NBC News conspiracy theorists.
And notably, without contacting either me nor you, they said that we presented that without evidence,
despite me having mounds of evidence from actual sources that he was in a lot of danger.
Your initial thoughts on that, now that you've sadly been proven right.
Well, I have no sources.
I'm just using common sense as my guide because I believe in trend lines.
And, you know, things tend to move in recognizable patterns and the acceleration was really obvious.
I mean, this is like, the central fact of history is that things just don't appear out of nowhere.
You can predict them with some accuracy if you just pay attention to the preceding events, and so they were totally dehumanized.
Instead of calling him Hitler, Which is a predicate to killing somebody.
Would you kill Hitler if you could?
I think most people would say yes, it'd be my moral duty to do that.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer reached that conclusion, right?
This person is such a threat that while killing is wrong, it's justified in this case because it will save the lives of many.
So they're calling Trump Hitler constantly.
And then they're trying to impeach him, and then now they're trying to arrest him and put him in prison for the rest of his life, and none of it is working.
He becomes stronger.
You never hear anybody call Trump a racist anymore.
By the way, that was the signature attack against Trump.
If you were a Hivero Indian living in the Amazon headwaters in 2016, the one thing you knew about the United States was there was a racist Running for president.
Now nobody says he's a racist.
Why?
Because all the people he supposedly hates are voting for him.
So that's like not working.
None of this is working.
In fact, it's counterproductive.
Every time you attack him, he becomes stronger.
This is a much recognized phenomenon.
And so where do you go next?
And they're out of options.
And I just made the very obvious point that this trajectory leads to assassination.
Like, why is that crazy?
And the last thing I'll say is that Daniel Arkin, I hope, is enjoying his health insurance because he's going to be on Cobra soon.
Because that whole edifice is coming down.
Because nobody believes it, therefore nobody watches it.
They pulled Morning Joe off the air yesterday.
Oh, he was pissed this morning.
They were ordered by Comcast.
Comcast.
Fact, I do have a source on this, don't air this crap because these people are crazy and it's hurting our parent company.
They're lunacy.
So they're literally mourning Joe is so, and he's not the worst, though he's the most annoying, is so radical and crazy that they literally can't even air him anymore.
The liberals at Comcast, what's the lifespan, speaking of trajectory, speaking of trend lines, of NBC News, of CBS, of CNN of the New York Times.
It's like very limited.
We're looking at the last moments of existence for these organizations.
And so I would just say to Arkin, if he's watching, I feel so sorry for you.
I don't know if you're married, but at some point you have to explain to that woman how you're not providing for her anymore because you don't have a job because what you did was disgusting and Your whole business was destroyed.
I mean, you know, Don, I think of myself often.
I mean, you're obviously living this.
It's your father.
And you're the only guy on this couch who's actually had a Secret Service detail.
I've worked one.
I've never had one.
You know, you look at this guy, Dan Arkin, who writes this piece calling me and Tucker crazies for highlighting... Just so you know, I was in there, too, because I agreed with you at the time.
So I was also vilified and called a conspiracy theorist because when they said, well, Tucker said this, I go, Of course he's right.
What are you talking about?
What world are you watching that you believe that that's an impossibility?
What are you, an imbecile?
Of course they are, but it was crazy.
You got briefings from your agents, correct?
When my father was president, I was the number two, according to them, I was the number two most threatened person in the United States.
After my father.
Because I'm vocal.
I'd say that.
I don't back down.
I push hard.
I think I've been proven right on virtually everything.
But yeah, I was the number two most threatened person under the purview of the United States Secret Service.

You know, Tucker, one of the things you and I both share, I think, in common, and Don, I'm sure you agree, I don't want to leave you out of this one, but you and I particularly, especially when we were at Fox together, is the media, the liberal media, and some swampy conservative media, or pseudo-conservative media, whatever, they really, really get under my skin.
They do, it's like a tick, and I wish they wouldn't, because there were times I, you know, oh, I can't sleep at night, and people say, no, there were some times I literally can't go to sleep at night, like I have to take like a melatonin.
Because I'll read something and I'm like, fuck these motherfuckers, like they're so stupid, right?
The thing you and I nailed, I think to a T, that to this day, you used to talk about it and everyone else avoided it, was this replacement theory stuff.
This was the worst media story in human history.
There were literal articles, and I hate that word because it's so overused, written in the New York Times called, We Can Replace Them.
There are hours and hours of Democrats on tape talking about demographic destiny.
The demographics of the country are going to change.
We're going to replace these.
Joe Biden's on tape talking about how the white man.
And then when we notice it, they're like, that Tucker and Bongino, they're mother effing racists.
You better fire them.
They wrote whole books about it.
And now, of course, it's true.
Yeah.
But the hate that it displays, like, why would you want to do that?
You know, why would you want to watch the people whose ancestors built the country die, mock them as they die, and then replace them?
I don't understand.
Like, only some, I mean, that, that suggests like actual hate, like homicidal hate.
I would never want something like that for anybody.
And by the way, it's not just the United States.
It's happening all over the Western world.
The people whose ancestors built these countries are dying and they're being replaced.
And it's like, why would you want to do that?
There's something very heavy going on.
You know, I mean, go to Sweden, go to the UK, go to London.
I mean, it's, it's shocking.
And I don't, at this point, care if you're not allowed to notice it or if you're racist to notice it.
It's happening in Ireland.
Ireland!
It wasn't, Ireland was never a colonial power!
Like, in the United States, they're like, well, you have to put up with this because you were mean to Puerto Rico or something, or You know what I mean?
Or you've used too much carbon, so you have an obligation to allow all of Central Africa to move to your country and give them housing vouchers.
Okay.
But Ireland never did anything to anybody.
Ireland was oppressed by Great Britain, actually.
It was never a colonial power.
It sat out an entire war.
No, exactly!
They started a potato famine, so why are you doing this to the Irish?
They are the indigenous population of Their island.
And you're watching them die and replacing them with people from the third world.
On what basis are you doing that, George Soros, actually?
Like, what's the real answer?
And you have to think that this is genocidal intent.
Like, what else is it?
I mean, honestly, what else is it?
Oh, shut up!
How about no?
Because I want to live like it's 1985 in the country that I loved where honest questions could be asked with full confidence.
You had a right to do that because you're an American.
And I'm going to live that way until I die.
And I don't care what they do to me.
I'm going to live like it's 1985 in my country, and I'm going to ask a super obvious question, why are you doing that?
And why are we putting up with it?
I don't think we should.
You had the greatest line ever.
He did a profile, I think it was in New York or whatever.
You did a long form profile with one of these- Never doing that again.
Yeah, it was one of these total douche canoes in like New York or whatever.
But you had a great line in there.
Yeah, I was like, man, that was really nice of him to do that.
I did one too, this guy Evan Osnard or whatever fucked me over.
Yeah, so I wrote a hit piece on him later.
I'm like, ah, fuck this guy.
So in the piece, you wrote, you said this great line, like, you know, once in a while you got to throw a shit grenade in the tent.
And you know what?
I read that and I'm like, I know exactly what you were saying.
No, actually I was quoting.
It wasn't me.
I was quoting a deceased friend of mine called Christopher Hitchens and who I used to drink with.
He never quit and died, and I did quit.
But anyway, many, many years ago, he said to me, you know, my goal is not even ideological.
Every day, as a matter of principle, I want to throw a grenade over the wall into asshole HQ.
And I thought, I want that to be my goal.
I want to do that.
I found my spirit animal.
Yes, I did.
And I really have tried.
Cause Don, did you find like me, like his monologues at night?
They were great.
Wait, they were, you, you know, the one thing about you is you never, you honestly, Paul, am I right?
My wife and I used to watch like with rapt attention, right?
We would sit there and we'd be like, the greatest part of it was you never knew what was coming, man.
Like regardless of the news cycle.
And you'd be like, Shit, I'm thinking about that different now, you know?
Yeah.
And I think that's why- You don't want to be part of the news cycle, I mean, unless- But it drove the news, it did.
I mean, people, the entire next day conversation, even on social, was based around that monologue.
I'll give you a perfect example.
The Arkansas governor, Hutchinson, when he came on about cutting guys' nuts off, the kids' balls off, and you just verbally castrated him, That his career will never recover from that interview ever.
I hope not.
He ran for president anyway and I interviewed him again at some forum in Iowa.
There's a certain kind of, I don't know that they're all actually closeted,
but they seem all seem very closeted to me, or at least they have super unhappy wives,
but this very kind of weak male, that's just true.
It's 100% true.
I'm not even disagreeing with you.
They're all that way.
It's Mitch McConnell or whatever.
They're all that way, and there's something about them.
I think that the governor of Utah is that way.
It's a certain sort of man, and they hate themselves so much.
And my operating rule in life is if someone hates himself, he's probably not going to love you.
It's guys like that who just like get off on abasing themselves.
That's totally cool.
I think the word is cuck.
It literally is cuck.
They are cuck.
That's like the most brilliant.
It's rumble.
We can say it.
When they started telling you, you weren't allowed to use the term cuck or it's okay to be white.
I remember thinking like, well, why?
Like, why can't you say that?
You know what I mean?
No one ever explained it.
It was like, shut up.
That's an extremist term.
I didn't even know what cut meant.
Yeah.
But like the genius collective on the Internet really saw deeply into the souls of people like Mitch McConnell or that creepy, the trainee Arkansas governor.
And they just saw who they were because it was elemental.
It wasn't a political difference.
It was like something inside this man was so hollow and broken and sick and diseased and self-hating that it had to do with a cuckold fantasy.
Like, that's totally right.
I can smell it.
