Time Text
Thank you.
Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host, Dan Bongino.
Yeah.
Yeah.
My left shoulder doesn't work, so I want to do like a big dramatic thing, and I just realized looking at the feedback, my left arm don't work.
Let's just do the...
Here it is!
If you are listening, I love.
Look at this.
These guys cutting out.
Look at this.
Look at these guys in the other room.
Oh, look at them.
Fancy.
Go run again.
Oh, look at that.
If you are listening on Apple and Spotify, you know I love you guys.
You are the original.
We didn't even have a video show for years until the lovely Paulita said, I think we should do a show on video.
By the way, she's sitting right here too.
This is the new studio.
Welcome to the new Dan Bongino show, the new Evening Scroll with Haley, the new Early Edition with Evita, and Vince, which is going to be starting when I leave.
This is the new studio.
Paula, how long did you work on this?
A very long time.
Very long.
She doesn't even want to give you long because she doesn't think you'll believe her.
A long time.
What do you guys think?
Let's see you in the chat first.
Fire it up.
What do you think?
Love it?
You've got bookcase in the background.
You've got to put the American flag.
You've got the little Dan Bongino sign in the background.
In case you're wondering, the football helmet in the background, who is it?
It is the greatest athlete of all time, and in my opinion, the greatest football player of all time, too.
Just my opinion.
The great Bo Jackson.
I love Auburn.
He went there.
We've also got some of the props from the old studio, my old Secret Service badge up there.
That was one of the Patriot Awards I got.
You got Rock'em Sock'em.
You got the Mutley.
You got everything.
You got the big wooden FAFO knife up there.
They did such an amazing job.
Listen, oh, you can do that?
Look at that.
Oh, look at these guys zooming in on stuff.
You got the Bongino baseball, rock'em, sock'em.
This is very professional.
It's my first time in here.
Haley's sitting right there.
Haley's already used the studio.
They all love it.
So we're going to give you a little before and after.
Show you what's ahead.
I promised you when we built the studio, we were going to bring you nothing but the best.

Do we have a bell?
No, don't even know.
No, you can't.
You can't.
He said he'll put it in in post, meaning afterwards there'd be a bell effect, where I would go, and there's no bell, and he pretends there's a bell.
No, no, it's okay.
It's okay.
These guys are working at light speed to get me in the studio.
But really, what do you think of the visuals?
Show the production room, guys.
I want everybody to see you.
You can see Justin, 72 feet tall.
Michael's like 72 and a half feet tall.
Guy, the founder, there he is.
He's still telling me how Rogue One is fantastic.
Look at him.
He's got a little note on his desk.
Hello, hello.
We got the production room.
These guys can even talk.
Can you guys say something over the thing?
Will that go over the thing you just showed me?
Don't say anything about Rogue One.
I'll cut you right out.
They could actually go over and broadcast over the thing.
I'm throwing way too many curveballs at these.
Look, there you go.
There you go.
So we're really proud of this.
A couple of thank yous.
I want to thank the lovely Paula first.
This was her project.
Make no mistake, folks.
I had absolutely nothing to do with this other than earning some money to build it.
I did nothing.
All of this stuff was Paula.
The wall behind us, that's bricks from New York because we have the old New York thing.
That's a real iron piling.
All of this stuff was hers.
She designed the whole thing.
So thank you, Paula.
Thank you, the production team.
Guy, Michael, Justin, everyone else who was in here working tireless hours.
We appreciate that.
And thank you, Jasmine, our business manager, who was in here helping Paula keep everything in line.
And a big thank you to Ronnie Kirchman.
From Kirchman Contracting, who built this lovely studio on time and with very few issues, relatively speaking, considering the breadth of the project.
So thank you, guys.
And, you know, we can work on a bookcase in the background a little bit.
We can add and mix around some new stuff.
But this is a picture of the old studio.
Guy and the team put together a kind of before and after.
This is what the old studio looked like.
Imagine this.
Train wreck.
Jerry-rigged operation.
I don't even know what half that stuff is anymore.
Because, Guy, remember we just kept piling stuff upon stuff?
There is Guy.
Somebody said, wow, on Facebook, Guy's such a handsome guy.
I'm like, hey, hold on.
Chill out there.
Kim won't like that.
There is the little mini-golf thing on the side.
There's the kitchen in the new place.
We figured we'd give you a little virtual tour.
There are the offices.
One of those will be Paula's.
So you liking it so far?
And there, this is a mural.
I want to show you this.
This is amazing.
Paula had this, commissioned this mural.
Oh, what was it?
What was his name?
Juan Travieso.
What a talented guy.
That is not a stencil-like thing, folks, where you just spray paint it.
He did that by hand, Juan.
He did the thing by hand.
He was here, what, a week?
Him and his wife almost on 24-hour shifts.
That is all painted by hand.
So amazing.
That is in the lobby of the new studio.
So it really looks incredible.
And there you go.
It's not all done yet.
There's a couple more, kind of.
We got to put in there, but you like it?
This was for you guys.
We want to make sure you got the best-looking product out there.
Look at that.
That's Haley's office right there.
Haley's actually sitting in that seat right now, in the seat you just saw, but she's in it.
That's the only different part of the visual landscape of what's going on right now.
Paula's right next to the camera right there.
But this is our first show.
I'm ecstatic to be here.
I feel like this is kind of my life's work, coming together in this one physical place.
So let's do some content.
How do you feel about that?
Yesterday, we saw another messaging debacle up on Capitol Hill as the Democrats who are rudderless right now and seem to be out at sea wandering around with no ability to use the light to get back to the shore.
They don't seem to have any direction at this point.
And when it comes to the immigration issue, which they took a big L on in the election, nobody doubts that.
They took and dropped a big L. It was the border, it was inflation, and it was this sense of weaponized government that were probably three of the top ten issues that contributed to this seven-swing state, just absolute disaster for them in the 2024 election.
So yesterday, the Republicans brought out up on Capitol Hill in front of committee, they brought out a couple of...
Liberal, you know, big Brandon Johnson types, liberal city mayors, and they wanted him to answer basic questions on immigration.
The hearing did not go well for the Democrats.
But I want to play this clip of Senator Mark Warner first, who is forced in a swing state like Virginia now to admit the obvious.
That because the numbers have dropped so dramatically at the border, everything we told you was true.
The Immigration and Nationality Act allows the President of the United States to stop any class of illegal migrants at any time, for any given period of time, for any reason, and Joe Biden just didn't want to do it.
So here's Mark Warner, and I want you to pay attention to the stammering around in the answer as he's forced to admit, basically Trump was right.
Check this out.
Do you agree with that assessment that Donald Trump is the only thing that's needed to change the circumstances at the border?
I think it is good that we're at a 25-year low in terms of border crossing.
My words yesterday, yeah, they were not great.
Let me be the first to acknowledge that.
And I think what he's doing to our economy...
Why weren't they great?
Why weren't they great?
Because the notion...
That the numbers are down, which I think is good for America.
And I think the vast majority of Americans realized President Biden didn't have a secure enough border.
Those numbers are down.
That's good news for our country.
But the idea that that becomes an ability to sanction ICE, to have unfettered immigration raids, doesn't make sense.
So my choice of words yesterday...
I'd like to take him back.
The data does exist on the numbers being down.
What we've got to do going forward, and we again heard last night from a president who had a State of the Union that, I'll stand by my words, was the least amount of outreach to anybody who didn't vote for him that doubled down on all the MAGA issues.
It wasn't a good night for America last night.
It wasn't a good night?
What are you talking about?
It was a great night for America.
It was just a bad night for you.
What a bad night for America.
Notice the little sleight of hand he does there, too.
You see this often with politicians.
By the way, both parties, they'll do it.
But when they're caught in a corner on a question, he knows.
This guy's not stupid.
Mark Warner's been around forever, a Democrat from Virginia, obviously on the Senate side.
He's not a dumb guy.
It may make you feel good to say he's a dumb guy, but he's not.
He knows what he's doing.
Mark Warner knows in the state of Virginia that illegal immigration is a growing problem for him and his party.
Because they're the party of pro-illegal immigration.
They just are.
They can fake it all they want.
So what does he do?
He has to engage in this euphemisms game to pretend that he's not for what he's for.
Like, here's what I'm for, but I can't tell you what I'm for.
The Schatz doctrine, in other words.
Brian Schatz, the senator who has this theory out there that Democrats should continue to do radically left crazy stuff, just don't tell people about it.
So I want you to pay attention in that clip, if you rewind it and go back, if you watch it on demand, how he's struggling to answer the question.
It's okay to say Donald Trump has relatively, speaking in contrast to Joe Biden's illegal immigration encounters at the border, that Donald Trump has fixed the problem.
It's okay to say that.
You might actually look like a bit of a pragmatist in what's returning to a swing state kind of status, I think, Virginia.
He doesn't want to do that.
He stammers and he moves all around and he tries to kind of distract you with, look, shiny red objects.
But what kind of ticked me off the most about that clip is he says, well, that's no excuse to engage in unfettered immigration raids.
I would have followed up if I was the host.
She's a liberal.
She's not going to follow up and ask real questions.
What do you mean unfettered?
Oh, I assure you there's fettering when it comes to immigration raids.
They have rules, administrative procedures, the law.
They have the Bill of Rights, the Constitution they have to abide by.
You see the distraction mechanism they engage in all the time when they know they're at an issue they're losing on significantly?
Oh, look at that.
Look at that!
Flipping up the camera.
You like the lighted flag there?
Look at it.
No, right there.
It actually goes in the right direction this time.
Check that out.
Flip to the other one, too.
One majority of this too much.
Look at that.
That's like the pan out.
These guys are loving this.
It's great.
We got two shots, three shots.
Now we can do interviews and all kinds of stuff.
Vince has some crazy good interviews lined up for you.
Is that another shot?
That's like the...
Look at you guys.
What are you laughing at?
Jasmine's like cracking up in there.
They all think this is funny because they keep throwing...
Because I see it on return.
I hear Jasmine and...
She's like cackling.
What are you guys laughing at?
Making fun of me during my show.
So, the hearing.
The hearing was a genius move, by the way.
You have to remember, the Democrats have been traditionally good at messaging in the past.
And if you ever read the book Revolt Against the Masses by Fred Siegel, great book.
I'm not the publisher.
I have no vested interest in it at all.
It's just a really great book.
He talks about basically the revolt against the masses, how liberalism is a response, an attack on the middle class.
He mentions in the book how they had this superb mechanism lined up for years.
The media, activist groups, and congressional committees.
You see how Republicans are starting to emulate this strategy now?
Conservative media, activist groups, congressional committees, learning how to get a message out there.
The hearing up on Capitol Hill with these liberal mayors, Michelle Wu from Boston, Brandon Johnson, Eric Adams, was the perfect opportunity to just ask them.
Well, what are you doing about this?
It appears through your sanctuary city status that you're incentivizing illegal immigration.
This did not end well when an excellent congresswoman from Florida, Anna Paulina Luna, decided to take this thing up one notch regarding some referrals.
Check this out.
So you don't believe that banning the transfer of individuals into ICE custody for the purpose of civil immigration enforcement encourages illegal immigration into Chicago?
Or how about agencies?
Sorry, one second.
Or agents not being able to stop, arrest, or detain individuals based solely on their immigration status or administrative warrant?
So we comply with all laws, local, state, and federal.
To me, after this line of questioning, it's very clear that these policies that you have all implicated are active and alive and well in your cities are in direct violation with U.S. Title VIII Code subsection 1324 and is a federal offense.
But you all speak about a broken immigration system, and yet here you guys are aiding and abetting in that entire process.
I want to be very clear about something.
Open border policies, which is something that you guys are talking about, Hurts people on both sides, meaning the people that are coming here illegally and then American citizens as well.
I do not think you guys are bad people, but I think that you are ideologically misled, which is why, unfortunately, based on your responses, I'm all going to be criminally referring you to the Department of Justice for investigation.
And as soon as I leave here, these will be going over to Pam Bondi.
I'm not doing that in an effort to bully you guys, but I do believe that your policies are hurting the American people, and you can make that known with the evidence that you can present to the Department of Justice.
But if you guys continue doing what you're doing, you're not going to help anyone.
You're going to hurt more people, and that's exactly why I'm tired of it, the American people are tired of it, and Chairman, I yield like that.
Would you yield your last minute?
Yes, sir.
You know, this is my first time explaining this from the new studio here.
There is a reason that Democrats enjoy open borders and I'll use the word unfettered, but in the correct way here, unfettered open immigration, regardless of process or procedure.
There is a way to migrate to the country.
You can get a visa.
You can go through the formal process in your own country and be welcomed in.
You can enter at a port of entry and make various claims.
What you cannot do is enter any place you want at any time for any reason you want.
I think that's clear.
However, the first time I explained it from the new studio, the Dems have had this argument for a long time going on internally, and they've actually aired it.
They call it demographic destiny.
When you talk about the exact same thing, they call it replacement theory, but it's the exact same thing, make no mistake.
What the Democrats are referring to is a shift in the demographic makeup of the United States that they think, the destiny part, will lead them to a long-term grip on national power.
Here's the process for them.
They're having a real problem right now.
The electoral college is an issue for them.
Swing states are starting to float in our direction, as you saw in the last election.
Why?
Because a lot of liberal people who live in these cities are being left behind in California while conservatives, moderates, and even kind of old blue dog style damn voters are leaving these liberal states because of poor public safety policies, high taxes, unfettered illegal immigration.
So what's happening?
The population of these liberal states is starting to shrink.
The population that gives them electoral college voting power.
The Electoral College is based on the number of members of the House of Representatives, which depends on your population, plus two senators.
So the Democrats, who have spoken about this openly, see illegal immigration as a way to backfill people exiting these liberal states to move to more conservative states or swing states.
They've talked about it over and over.
I played the montage on the show a thousand times.
It's not a conspiracy theory.
It's not a mystery.
It's them actually talking about it.
Do me a favor.
Just look it up.
Go to any search engine, put in demographic destiny.
You can see a thousand clips of them discussing this.
That's what's going on here.
That's why they don't have it.
Oh, look at this.
I can see Justin's laptop up there.
That's a new one.
I didn't know that before.
Don't do anything shady on the laptop in the studio.
You can actually put it on the screen.
Yeah, demographic destiny.
You can see they talk about this stuff all the time.
All the time.
He was the mayor of Boston who is just...
Disgracefully, the other day, sent her condolences and thoughts and prayers to a suspect in a case of a stabbing, where an off-duty police officer acted rather heroically, by the way.
You mean she sent the condolences to the police officer?
No!
To the other guy!
The suspect in the case!
So here's the mayor of Boston sending a message to illegal immigrants in many languages that basically this is your city.
You can watch it yourself.
I'm not making this up.
Check this out.
You belong here.
This is your home.
This is our city.
We are the safest major city in the nation because we are safe for everyone.
Clearly you're not safe for everyone.
I mean, if you're a suspected attacker in a knife attack and you find yourself in a Chick-fil-A, you're not really safe because the mayor's going to send their thoughts and prayers to the suspect bad guy with the blade in this case and not the off-duty cop.
Doesn't sound safe to me.
Folks, incentives matter, okay?
If you are going to say to people, break the law, don't enter in a port of entry, stay here illegally, and make no effort at any point to engage with the legal immigration process, but come here, we'll protect you, you are obviously going to become a magnet for people who break the law and come here.
This is not hard to figure out.
They're just playing dumb.
They're not actually dumb with this.
Folks, they think with the hive mind, though, and that's one thing about the Democrats, they're usually better at messaging than this.
This immigration story to them is one of those basically 70-30, 80-20 issues where they're in the minority in the 20-30 percent.
They've dropped a big L on it, and they've had no ability to pull themselves out of it and say, guys, it's time to do what we did with the Bill Clinton Democrat Party and start to reorient ourselves towards the center.
They're just not doing it.
There's a jump cut in the show here, which I'm not supposed to talk about.
They tell you in the business when you guys screw something up, you just go past it.
But we had to jump cut something in this pre-recorded segment we had done there.
Because Justin is messing around, Luke Skywalker fiddling with R2-D2 in there.
And while we were doing the show, what happened?
I'm looking at the feedback, the video returned.
And what do I see?
The answer is, I don't see anything.
I see nothing but black.
I mean black, like the absent of any picture whatsoever.
And why?
Because Justin in there, in the room, give a little wave.
Go to the camera.
I plead the fifth.
So Adam, like, cut that thing out.
So that's why there's a little jump cut in there.
Like, how'd you do that?
Don't ask.
We got a lot of gizmos in the studio, and he's been messing with all too many of them.
It's been a lot of fun so far.
You enjoying the show?
You like the new studio?
I love it.
I love it.
I feel like this is my life's work here.
Put so much time into this.

We appreciate it.
I know you may have seen this, but it goes back to a point I've made repeatedly about the Borg hive mind Democrats, how when you're a collectivist, which is the essence of what?
Progressive liberal Democrat values are these days.
We should all share in the wealth, even wealth you didn't create.
We should share in other people's wealth.
The essence of that is that you have to act collectively.
I'll be candid with you.
The only downside, tactically, not ideologically or morally, to being a...
Bedrock Republican who loves our values and conservatism is we're entrepreneurs and we're believers in freedom and individual liberty.
We don't want to be told what to do.
Tactically, that creates a coordination problem.
It creates kind of what they call in the economics of prisoners of the limit.
Democrats don't have that problem.
They get a message, they go out there, and they all just repeat the same thing.
Here we go.
Did you check this out?
Here.
Listen to this video.
This is a...
What is this?
The shit that's a lie or something like that?
But watch how they all got the message and just the exact same script over and over and over again.
Check this out.
Okay, I have no problem with a message getting out there, there, but can you improv at least a few words?
Change an and to a but, put a semicolon where a period was, maybe a comma, maybe an exclamation point, maybe act it out differently.
Now you're probably thinking, oh, Dan, it was just five of them.
No, no, it was more.
The only reason we're going to play this one first is there's so many of them, it sounds like nothing but static when you play it all together.
You doubt me?
here.
Check this out.
That is the tactical benefit of thinking with the hive mind.
They all repeat endlessly the same things over and over and over again.
The rich don't pay their fair share.
This is all they do.
They think collectively.
They're taught to not think individually or else they'd be conservatives.
And they're not.
Folks, I want to move on to the continuing ongoing situation with the Ukraine deal and the tariff situation.
I've explained to you repeatedly that Donald Trump is clearly using tariffs as a negotiating point right now.
I'm going to get to that.
But he is not kidding.
You know, if you...
Fall into the trap of take Donald Trump seriously but not literally.
You're going to blow it and you're going to lose.
Always know the person sitting across from you at the negotiating table.
No.
Take him seriously and take him literally because he is not kidding.
He is demanding an end to this.
It's just stunning how the formerly give peace a chance, I mean they had songs about it, left, is now upset at Donald Trump for engaging in a negotiation pathway in a war that at this point It's not going well for either side, frankly.
And you have a side...
I don't want to...
Just put up the...
I'll explain after you see this AP, okay?
He is not kidding when he says, we are out.
If you are not interested in engaging in this exit ramp off this war highway onto Peace Exit 62, whatever.
That's the exit I lived off, off the LAE. Then we're out.
He's not kidding.
Trump pauses U.S. military aid to Ukraine by pressuring Zelensky to move quickly to end the war.
Do not fall in that trap.
You are making a catastrophic mistake.
Here is another politician in Canada, north of us, who is making another catastrophic mistake.
He keeps one-upping the argument with Donald Trump over tariffs.
We have not had free and open access on all fronts into Canadian markets for a long time.
Donald Trump is a transactional guy.
Now, whether you agree or disagree with tariffs, I've stated my position a thousand times.
I don't want to bore you with it.
There is simply no doubt that although we benefit from a friendly relationship with Canada, we certainly wouldn't want an enemy up north, there is no doubt that the inverse is true as well, that they benefit from us.
No one's going to invade Canada.
Why?
because the United States military is located just south and would never allow hemispheric dominance by some other world power like China or Russia.
Not going to happen.
There is a benefit there.
It is a direct benefit of being regionally located just north of us.
There's also a lot of trade that happens.
It benefits both countries here, and these are not our enemies.
But Donald Trump is saying, hey, we want access.
We want dairy, everything.
We want this Canadian market to be fully free and open, and if it's not...
Then we're going to tariff your products coming in.
And now you have Doug Ford up there in Canada.
We're going to cancel contracts with Starling.
This is not helping.
This is not helping.
I understand the situation you're in, but it is not helping.
Trying to one-up and engage in chest puffery with Donald Trump is a huge mistake.
He feeds off this stuff.
He knows he has the upper hand.
So here's Justin Trudeau.
Suggesting that we're going to keep booing the American national anthem?
How does this help?
Pro tip, dump this line of attack.
It's not working.
Check this out.
We're going to choose to not go on vacation in Florida or Old Orchard Beach or wherever.
We're going to choose to try to buy Canadian products and forego bourbon and other...
Classic American products.
And yeah, we're probably going to keep booing the American anthem.
I'm not sure how that turns the temperature down on the tariff argument and this ongoing Donald Trump transactional spreadsheet where he sees this as NATO, Canada and other countries taking advantage of the United States.
Implicit, if not explicit, security guarantee.
It's not helping.
There comes a time, you know, the best life advice you're ever going to have is in that Kenny Rogers song, The Gambler.
Sometimes you just got to know when to hold them and know when to fold them, know when to walk away and when to run.
This is a time to run away from this.
It is not going to end well on the economic front.
It just isn't.
You don't have the leverage Donald Trump does.
Here's Justin Trudeau's message to President Trump.
This wasn't a smart move either.
Check this out.
Now I want to speak directly to one specific American.
Donald.
In the over eight years you and I have worked together, we've done big things.
We signed a historic deal that has created record jobs and growth in both of our countries.
We've done big things together on the world stage, as Canada and the U.S. have done together for decades, for generations.
And now, we should be working together to ensure even greater prosperity for North Americans in a very uncertain and challenging world.
Now, it's not in my habit to agree with the Wall Street Journal, but Donald, They point out that even though you're a very smart guy, this is a very dumb thing to do.
I'm really not sure how this helps.
I'm not.
Let me help you to Trudeau.
I'm going to help you out.
I'm not in the business of agreeing with the Wall Street Journal.
I'm not in the business of agreeing with you or giving you pro tips or advice, but I will here.
You're engaging in negotiations with a man that sees that the United States has been taken advantage of for a long time.
I've said many times on this show, because it matters to me, having lost family members in wars overseas, the United States has shed a lot of blood and a lot of treasure in the defense of countries around the world, not named the United States.
Donald Trump has seen what happened in Iraq, a war he never supported.
He saw the writing on the wall there.
He saw what happened in Afghanistan and other places where we've tried our best to do this democracy-building, old-school Republican approach to national security geopolitics.
He doesn't see results.
He sees a NATO military cooperative arrangement that is largely backed by the United States, despite the United States...
Not being regionally co-located in roughly the same place as some of the enemies NATO is meant to protect against.
He sees a Canadian arrangement economically.
It's worked out great, but there are a lot of downsides.
There's a lot of restrictions on what we can sell into Canada, despite the fact that Canada relies heavily on us.
Again, I'm not in the pro-tip business for Democrats, but I have been for the last few days.
If you've been listening to the show, I'm just telling you, dial it down, man.
This isn't going to work.
I don't know what you're getting out of this.
You may get some puffery, and who knows?
You may be bumping up in your approval rating polls, but you're not helping anyone.
All right.
I haven't covered this.
You know, one of Donald Trump's superpowers, I forget who was arguing this the other day, but it was a genius take that he has this magical, it was Scott Jennings, he has this magical ability to take an 80-20 issue where 80% of the people are with him, and he gets his political opponents to jump in with the 20. That's not how you build a coalition in politics and win, and one of them is men in women's sports, men in girls' sports.
It is an absolute loser, like the immigration issue we covered at the beginning of the show.
When?
Are you guys going to get this on the left?
What is it going to take?
What is it going to take?
A 49 out of 50 state Reagan landslide?
Last break, and we'll get back to that.
It said that four companies control over 80% of the U.S. meat industry.
Reports say China now controls the largest portion of U.S. pork.
These companies are using tactics to crush American family farms.
And with the additives they're putting into our food, Americans are stuck with sketchy meat.
So what can we do about this?
Let me tell you about a company that's coming out swinging on behalf of the American Family Farms and your family's food security.
Moink, M-O-I-N-K. Moink's meat comes from animals raised outdoors, and they deliver meat straight to your doorstep at prices you can actually afford.
Born, raised, and harvested right here in the United States of America.
They just sent me some of their meat.
It was absolutely fantastic.
You're going to enjoy it.
You can really taste the difference in quality.
It's amazing.
It makes a big difference in the meals for my family.
We like to eat healthy and we like it to taste good.
Everything tastes amazing.

Did you guys see me laughing there?
Jasmine's sitting over here, and Haley's in the office.
And, like, everything just went dark in here.
I'm like, let me turn this thing on.
I mean, it went dark, like pitch black.
Like that Vin Diesel movie, when he's, like, the only guy who can see in the dark.
Jasmine was the only one.
She had the Vin Diesel glasses on in there.
And she's like, everybody's, like, looking around.
All right, I'm being a little bit dramatic.
Haley's like, dude, it was out for, like, one second.
But it made for a good story.
Because I saw Jasmine roll over, like, I don't know.
There's a light in here.
I don't know what's going on.
What was that?
How about coffee?
Here he is.
Guy's doing it again.
Guy's like, you like blackout coffee?
I love blackout coffee.
I've obviously had a few cups today being so geeked up on caffeine today.
It's time for you to be awake, not woke.
Start your day with a hot America First cup of blackout coffee like I do.
Blackout coffee is an active, supportive, hardworking Americans that see work as their duty.
They love the country.
They honor and take care of their customers more than any other coffee company out there.
Blackout Coffee uses premium-grade coffee beans.
You know, sometimes you drink this woke garbage coffee.
You don't even know what premium-grade beans taste like.
They use lower-grade beans a lot of these companies.
That's why you get that bitter-tasting coffee.
Now, Blackout, skip those long lines at the store and order online for bold, never-bitter coffee.
The folks at Blackout Coffee ship within 48 hours of roasting.
It's fresh.
It's great.
Do me a favor.
Go to blackoutcoffee.com slash Bongino.
See what I'm talking about.
Do the real deal.
Quit drinking that woke corporate junk coffee every morning.
That's blackoutcoffee.com slash Bongino.

Make the switch to blackout coffee.
You're going to love it.
Again, Donald Trump, he has a lot of these magic patterns.
Not everything is, you know, 4D chess.
You know, he doesn't think that way about himself.
However, getting...
The reflexively anti-Trump response to support open borders and men and women's sports has been such a disaster.
You wonder at what point they say, guys, I'm not a fisherman, but it's time to cut bait.
Like, just slice the damn fishing line at this point.
It's not working.
Here are Democrats at the joint address to Congress the other night.
The Democrats, you would think this would be a great opportunity for them to get up and clap for a girl who was severely injured playing with a man in volleyball who shouldn't have been in women's sports, but nope.
Sound bites and snapshots.
This was a bad snapshot.
Check this out.
Years ago, Peyton McNabb was an all-star high school athlete, one of the best, preparing for a future in college sports.
But when her girl's volleyball match was invaded by a male, he smashed the ball so hard.
In Peyton's face, causing traumatic brain injury, partially paralyzing her right side, and ending her athletic career.
It was a shot like she's never seen before.
She's never seen anything like it.
Payton is here tonight in the gallery, and Payton, from now on, schools will kick the men off the girls' team, or they will lose all federal funding.
Oh, just get up and clap.
It's not hard.
As I said yesterday, give the golf clap.
You don't even have to touch your hands.
You know, sometimes I broke my right hand.
Can you see it now with the zoo?
Can you see that bump?
Oh, you can see that.
Look at that.
I don't want to tell you how I broke it, but I broke my right hand.
Just give like an air clap.
Whatever.
Can you see that?
Look at that.
You see that lump?
You can see that.
That is an actual.
Look at that.
When I broke it, I go to the doctor and I'm at the hospital for special surgery.
I think that's what it was called.
And he comes in and the doctor was trying to be funny.
I thought it was hilarious to a time.
You know, my hand was swollen up like a basketball.
He's like, I think you broke the LFBs.
I'm like, what are the LFBs?
He's like, little freaking bones.
I'm like, is that bad?
He's like, it's bad.
Still okay, though.
You like the desktop, too?
While we're doing the new studio thing?
This was Paula's idea.
You like this?
Is this real wood?
It is?
Jasmine says yes, it is real wood.
This is called apparently a live edge on the thing.
I didn't know what live edge meant.
I thought like it was going to have graphics on it or something.
Like one of those tickers for the stock market.
But live edge means like it's actual.
This is the contour of the wood.
This was a Paul idea.
This is a new desk too.
Same mic though.
Same microphone.
This is the mic from the other studio.
He was like yesterday.
Him and Michael both sent me a text.
Look at this.
The side shot.
Check that out.
I kind of blend into the background.
Looks like a floating head right there.
If you're missing this, by the way, on Apple and Spotify, you got to check this out.
OK, back to the show, because I do this all the time.
Here is one of the best secretaries I've seen in a long time.
Dan, it's only been a month.
I've got enough of a sample size to roll with at this point.
She's been doing a great job, Caroline Levin.
Here she is talking about the Democrats sitting on their hands for this when they had a golden opportunity for a rapprochement with America on the issue.
Nice fancy SAT word.
Get up and just pretend to clap.
Check this out.
Last night was a very clarifying moment for our country.
The Democrats exposed themselves as the party of insanity and hate.
The party that wants to put America last.
They've allowed their Trump derangement syndrome to stop them from celebrating America and our people.
And we will not allow them to forget that.
So thankfully...
Let's see if these guys see what I'm doing here.
They're like, Dan, don't mess around.
It's our first day in the new studio.
I love messing around, and I can't stop.
There was a Minnesota state rep who stepped up for the Democrats.
Wouldn't you agree, fellas?
She was like, I'm going to bring some sanity back to this.
This is clearly not the right approach to take.
Guys, let's speak out clearly.
Women deserve their own spaces in sports.
There are biological differences.
So, fellas, thank you for cutting this.
Don't you agree?
Stepped up, right?
Give a round of applause.
This is Minnesota State Rep Alicia Kozlowski.
So, stepping up, trying to moderate the Democrat position that somehow men should be a women's sports.
And thank you for putting this in the show.
And thank you, Rep Alicia Kozlowski, for doing the right thing, not the easy thing.
Play that cut.
Make no mistake that this is just another version of state-sanctioned bullying.
And genocide.
And I don't say that loudly.
Of course, we were kidding.
There is no moderate voice on this issue.
It is bullying and state-sanctioned genocide.
How exactly is that?
Do you care to line that out with some data?
Because you used that word.
It's a very sensitive word to me.
I hear genocide.
We want to fix that problem real quick.
Kind of curious what data you have to back that up.
So stopping a man from smashing a ball into a young girl's face and breaking her nose and giving her a brain injury is somehow genocide.
You really sure, again, this is the hill you all want to die on here?
Here is a list of the Democrats who blocked the No Men in Women's Sports Act.
It's not a small list, folks.
There are a lot of them.
And I don't understand how tactically a party that's typically smart, obviously I'm not a Democrat, but they're typically tactically smarter than this.
You don't think that these names on this list, that this is going to be broadcast in every midterm campaign commercial, if they're running, that they voted against this?
It's an 80-20 issue, man.
You're on the wrong side of this.
You're on the wrong side of history.
But again, who am I to give you advice?
I don't buy into that stuff.
Anyway, I don't have to.
Folks, the reason the left continues to do this is because there's money in it.
Gerrymandering...
The way the congressional districts are carved up, it actually, you profit, at least your campaign coffers do, from engaging in radicalism.
You do.
And the base of the Democrat Party is very powerful when it comes to this magnetic pull over to their side.
Gerrymandering's got a lot to do with it.
I think social media has a lot to do with it.
No one wants to be crushed on Twitter, so they don't want to say anything because they feel like if they say anything, they'll become the target of everybody's ire on Twitter.
However, censorship is still a bedrock portion of this radical far-left approach, and it's a damn shame, because this is no way to move forward in a free constitutional republic.
Globalists love this, too.
I want you to listen to this.
Here is UN Chief Antonio Guterres.
A free speech on social media basically must be stopped, because, because...
If we show you clips like this and women getting hit in the face with volleyballs and smashed as men are spiking volleyballs in their face, then it may kind of turn the public against them.
So what's the solution?
Ban it.
Censorship.
Check this out.
Digital platforms are being misused to subvert science and spread disinformation and hate to billions of people.
This clear and present global threat demands clear and coordinated global action.
Our policy brief on information integrity on digital platforms puts forward a framework for a concerned international response.
Every time, every time with the censorship.
What is with this globalist crowd and censorship?
What are you so afraid of?
You're afraid that me and Justin...
By the way, Justin's on X now, too.
I saw that the other day.
He's got all this professional photo.
You're afraid we're actually going to expose you for you?
Here's another one they don't want out there.
This is excellent Congressman Tim Burchett, right?
Asking a question about tax dollars funding terror.
See, if this is the kind of thing, if you're not doing it, you're not worrying about censoring it because you're not doing it.
But if our tax dollars are funding terrorism, the only way to stop people from figuring out how is it, guys, is to censor it.
Notice we don't have this problem.
I hate censorship.
Watch this exchange.
This is the kind of stuff they don't want you to see.
Check this out.
Mr. Roman, are you aware that we are sending $40 million a week to the Taliban?
Yes, sir.
Can you name other instances of foreign aid going to terrorist organizations?
We have assisted al-Shabaab in Somalia.
There's been instances of the Hamzi network in Sudan, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, Kapaib al-Hezbollah, Hayat al-Shams in Syria.
Dozens of terror organizations have received indirect assistance from U.S. foreign aid.
You don't have to censor that stuff if it's not happening.
Justin, why?
Because it's not happening.
So there's nothing to censor.
This isn't hard, man.
This isn't hard.
Folks, I will not be here tomorrow, Friday.
You see, this is going to be tough for me.
I only have, after today, five shows left with you.
Next week, March 14th, will be our last show.
So tomorrow, Friday, I will not be here.
I have to go up to Washington, D.C. to handle some very important business.
It was my only option.
Everything was kind of in a compressed timeline.
I really hope you like the new studio.
Just give another shot of each angle here.
You can see we put a ton of work into it.
Paula did.
So did my crew.
It was our first show from here.
Look at this guy.
Michael, Justin, Gee.
I hope you guys enjoy it.
At least next week for me and with Hayley moving forward in the future.
She's right over there.
And Evita.
And then Vince.
Thank you so much for tuning in today.
Give us a follow.
Rumble.com slash Bongino.
Really appreciate it.
And I will see you on the radio in a little bit.
