your host, Dan Bongino. Welcome

0:29

about our first sponsor. Hey, you having trouble sleeping

0:31

or staying asleep? Trust me, I've been there, I'm there a

0:33

lot. It's not just about feeling tired the next day, it's

0:38

your life. But guess what? There's

0:40

hope on the horizon. Comes in the form of

0:42

Beams Dream Powder, and this stuff's been a game

0:44

changer for me. You see, when we're

0:46

sleeping well, we can be sharper, more focused,

1:28

Bongino. First up today, we

1:30

talk with Matt Walsh from The Daily Wire about

1:32

his new blockbuster movie. I think it's been rocking

1:34

up the charts. It's one of the biggest documentaries

1:36

of all time, maybe the biggest. It's called Am

1:39

I Racist? Have you seen it? It's

1:41

amazing. Really

1:43

happy to welcome this next guest to the show.

1:46

He's now a famous filmmaker. I'm not sure. I'm going to

1:48

have to ask him if he ever saw himself in this

1:50

role. But he's

1:53

had a number of really big successes

1:55

in this mockumentary space where we just

1:57

look at liberals for who they are.

2:00

First, it was what is a woman? Now

2:02

there's a film out called Am

2:04

I Racist? It's playing, which is

2:06

great in the local theater near

2:08

me. It's a hilarious, hilarious takedown

2:11

of the grotesque DEI industry. Welcoming back

2:13

to the show, Matt Walsh from The

2:15

Daily Wire. Matt, thanks for spending some

2:17

time with us. We appreciate it. Hey

2:19

Dan, thanks for having me, appreciate it. Man,

2:22

the movie, Matt, I gotta tell you, man,

2:24

I started watching some of the segments and

2:26

it's playing in the local theater here, which

2:28

has been very open to this type of

2:30

material, movies that you put out in Dinesh

2:33

and saw it. And it's,

2:36

the trailer almost doesn't do it justice. I don't wanna

2:38

take away from the interview. Can you mind if we

2:40

just play a minute of this one interview and I

2:42

wanna ask you some questions about it. I just want

2:44

you folks to listen to this one segment from the

2:47

movie where he's interviewing one of these DEI lunatics. This

2:49

is priceless, check this out. What's up with white people?

2:52

Where do we start? Maybe reframe the question

2:54

a little bit. What's wrong with

2:57

white people? A lot of it has

2:59

to do with cognitive dissidence, which allows white

3:03

people to feel okay about what happened.

3:05

There's actually a lot of studies on

3:07

Nazi doctors and how they were able

3:10

to live

3:12

with themselves. And it's not that

3:14

much different than white Americans or

3:16

white people around the world, right?

3:18

It's the splitting of the self.

3:20

And so you have this

3:23

part of you that knows that

3:25

they did wrong, the shadow self,

3:28

and that you have to split that and you have the

3:30

other self that's like, oh, I didn't

3:32

do anything wrong. Racism, why are you blaming me

3:34

for what my ancestors did? It's not my fault.

3:37

Is racism inherent to whiteness?

3:40

I would say so. I would say

3:42

that we need to abolish whiteness. It's

3:44

always been rooted in othering the other

3:46

people who don't fit into whiteness. But

3:48

when we look at white culture, the

3:50

only thing about white culture is buying

3:52

things and stealing things. Matt,

3:55

this is insane. Abolish

3:57

whiteness? Is this like some kind of call for?

4:00

racial genocide? I mean, she actually

4:02

said that in your film. She

4:05

did. And yeah, I don't know how

4:08

else to interpret it. If you're going

4:10

to abolish white myths, then what what

4:12

does that mean for the unfortunate white

4:14

people who are, you know, embodying

4:16

white people? But that's also one thing you

4:19

find in the film, and if you listen to

4:21

DI Griptures in general, is that they, you know,

4:23

they're probably not going to come out directly and

4:25

directly say, let's kill all the white people. They

4:28

use language like this, they say abolish

4:30

whiteness, and it there's a certain ambiguity to

4:32

it, because then you ask, well, what exactly

4:34

is whiteness, and they don't give you a

4:36

clear definition of that. Because

4:40

they also want to make it clear that even

4:42

if you're not white, you could still qualify

4:45

as somehow a participant in whiteness,

4:47

if you're conservative, for example. So

4:49

they use just, it's always

4:51

this with the left, everything's ambiguous. And

4:54

they can apply these terms, however they feel like,

4:56

you know, in the moment. And

4:59

it's like a euphemisms game. And I think the

5:01

left is comfortable with this. Because

5:04

I saw an interview, forgive me, I don't

5:06

know where I've been watching your stuff and

5:09

your follow up because the film, by the

5:11

way, folks called Am I racist has been

5:13

a runaway success. I think you're already one

5:15

of the top 10 documentaries, which is phenomenal,

5:18

phenomenal, considering it's a conservative media product. And

5:20

if this was a liberal product, it

5:22

would have made $100 million already. But I saw you

5:24

say something in an interview that these

5:27

people aren't used to even mild

5:29

criticism at that these DEI crazies

5:31

with abolish whiteness and all this

5:33

other nonsensical racist stuff, that the

5:35

second you subject them to even

5:38

the mildest of scrutiny, they

5:40

almost instantly collapse. And I think you were

5:42

saying how when you were engaging with these

5:44

people pretending to be one of them, that

5:46

you had to be careful almost not to be

5:49

too adversarial, because they just have never

5:51

had anyone confront them. And you wanted to you know,

5:53

you needed some material for the movie if I if

5:55

I remember correctly, I thought I heard that in an

5:57

interview. Yeah, that's exactly

6:00

the right that's why you know the movie

6:02

is an hour you know it's an hour

6:04

and 40 minutes long but we're taking

6:06

these interviews and these events

6:08

that I attended that were hour two

6:11

hours long right in real time and

6:13

in many of these interviews we talked for

6:16

example to Robin DiAngelo who's kind of like

6:18

the godmother of the DEI

6:20

race hustle and she's one of the last

6:22

people we talked to in the film in

6:25

real time is like a two get an hour maybe an

6:27

hour and a half conversation and

6:29

about 90% of

6:31

it was just me agreeing with her over and

6:33

over you know it's pretty pretty

6:35

torturous for me anyway to just

6:37

continually agree because you

6:39

have to make it very very clear to them that

6:41

you agree with them that that they're in a safe

6:43

space that everything's okay

6:46

they're not going to be challenged and then

6:48

after you've set that stage for a long

6:50

time then you can start to challenge

6:52

a little bit you can start pushing on these

6:54

things but they are just they're so cautious about

6:56

that because they know that their

6:59

worldview is like a house of cards it can

7:01

come tumbling down at any moment and that's

7:03

why they don't that's why they don't subject them that they

7:05

usually don't subject themselves to any kind of scrutiny unless

7:08

you can find a way to kind of coax them out from

7:10

behind their intellectual fortress

7:13

out into the open we're talking

7:15

to Matt Walsh the creative mind behind the

7:18

runaway success movie out now

7:20

called am I racist folks

7:22

absolutely hilarious go watch the

7:24

trailers you'll be blown

7:26

away the trailers candidly don't do the

7:29

movie justice that it's rare

7:31

to say that if the movie is incredible it's

7:33

worth your time Matt one of

7:35

the things that's always kind of troubled

7:37

me amongst the craziness of the

7:39

DEI business is the weirdest

7:42

thing about the DEI business you expose

7:45

is that you think they'd be proud of it you

7:47

know in other words like guys like you were me

7:49

I'm pro-life from birth to

7:52

from conception excuse me to natural death that's

7:54

my stance I'll defend it this is we were on

7:56

300 plus stations like that's

7:59

what I've said I'm proud I'm happy to defend it,

8:01

debate it, whatever. Tax cuts, I'll tell

8:03

you why I believe in them. The weird

8:05

thing about the DEI grift is

8:08

Robin DiAngelo, what did she deactivate her

8:10

account at? Why? I mean,

8:12

you let her speak her mind. You agreed

8:14

with her. You weren't rude to her. You

8:16

paid her for her appearance. You would think

8:19

this would be her great coming out moment. Like

8:21

if the young Turks asked you to come on

8:23

their show in a documentary and agree to fairly

8:25

edit it and you willing to pay her, be

8:27

like, all right, I'll consider it. Like

8:29

I'm not embarrassed by it. What is with

8:31

this business that the minute you

8:33

let them talk, they're so embarrassed they run

8:36

away on social media? Yeah,

8:39

it's very interesting. Robin DiAngelo deactivator accounts,

8:41

in fact, most of the people who

8:44

are the promoters of this stuff who appear in the film

8:46

have since at least deleted their

8:49

Twitter accounts, which is very

8:51

interesting. I think that

8:55

at some level, they must recognize that

8:57

what they're saying is nonsensical because you're

8:59

right that for me or you,

9:01

there's no embarrassment about what I believe. And

9:05

of course, if I say what I believe the left

9:07

is going to pretend that it's absurd and laugh about

9:09

it, but I know it doesn't faze me because I

9:11

know that it's true and I'm totally confident in it.

9:13

Right. But I think that if you if you recognize

9:15

at least at some level that what you're doing is

9:17

a grift, then there's going to be some embarrassment. And

9:19

I don't think I mean, look, there are there are

9:21

true believers with

9:23

the DEI called the people that are

9:26

going out and buying the books and go into these

9:28

seminars and all that kind of stuff. I mean, these

9:30

people I think are the dupes. They're the ones who

9:32

have been indoctrinated. But the ones that

9:34

are pushing it, I don't think that

9:36

they fully believe that I think there's at

9:38

least an element of just cynical self-aware

9:42

exploitation going on. Yeah,

9:45

I've wondered that too, because when you

9:48

as you said before, we're talking about Walsh,

9:50

the new movie is called Am I racist?

9:52

Please check it out. You

9:54

know, I think back to the the grifter

9:57

critical race theory guy and he's on

9:59

the panel. and they ask him to

10:01

define whatever racism, and he's

10:03

like, it's like racisty racist stuff. And you

10:06

know, when you're describing something in a proper

10:08

definition, you don't use the word in the

10:10

definition. You don't, it was like define a

10:13

pen. Well, it's a pen like

10:15

device is not a definition. You just repeated

10:17

the word again. These, I've

10:20

wondered that too. Like

10:22

I said, I think some of them are

10:24

true believers, but I think they're genuinely stupid

10:26

people. I mean like low aptitude, low IQ

10:29

people. But what bothers me the

10:31

most is not the dumb people. We always had

10:33

to deal with dumb people. It's the mercenary ones.

10:35

There are people out there who

10:37

really understand that this is divisive, like

10:39

potential end of America stuff to sick

10:41

races against each other. It's a very

10:44

definition of racism. And

10:46

they do it anyway because there's actual

10:48

money to be made. As

10:50

you showed in the movie, you know, you pay these

10:52

people for their appearances. They get paid to do this,

10:54

Matt, this isn't free. Yeah,

10:57

there's money, there's power, there's influence to be

10:59

found. And

11:03

nefarious people have known this for a long time that

11:05

racial division, resentment,

11:07

suspicion, guilt, all

11:10

these things are extremely profitable if you have

11:12

no soul and you're willing to profit off

11:14

of it. Which is also why these

11:16

people have gone out of their way to stir that up.

11:18

I mean, I think that, and we kind

11:20

of showed this in the movie too, because we go

11:22

talk to normal people also who are outside of the

11:24

kind of anti-racist DEI bubble. And what

11:26

we find for the normal people is that they're not

11:29

really thinking about most of this stuff. They're not obsessed

11:31

with, you know, they're aware of race obviously, but they're

11:33

not, it's not a focus of their life. They're not

11:35

worried about things like systemic racism. But

11:38

I think that's the default position of most people in

11:40

modern America. But

11:42

for the leftist race hustlers, that's

11:44

a bad thing. That's what

11:46

they're worried about. They need to come in and say,

11:48

no, no, no, no. You can't let this not be

11:50

an issue to you because that means that's less money

11:52

and power for us. So they intentionally try to stir

11:54

it up. And unfortunately, they've had

11:56

a lot of success in that regard, I think,

11:58

especially in recent years. Talking

12:00

to Matt Walsh, the new movie is

12:02

called Am I Racist? Matt, the website

12:04

is amiracist.com? That's the website, right? Yeah,

12:07

that's the website. amiracist.com, they get tickets.

12:09

Matt, last question, I'll let you go. I know

12:11

you're a busy guy, you've got your own show.

12:13

Here's a podcast, Matt Walsh, very popular one. You

12:15

should check that out. How

12:18

the hell did you not laugh?

12:21

I'm watching this movie, and

12:23

you're sitting there stone-faced with

12:25

these lunatics. I

12:28

mean, in saying the crazy, the

12:31

Moana thing, where you're questioning the

12:33

lady about if it's cultural appropriation

12:35

to wear the Moana costume, how,

12:40

did you take a Xanax? Like, how

12:42

did you not just crack up with

12:44

the stupidity of the answers in that?

12:46

You must have some phenomenal self-control. Well,

12:50

part of it is a lot of practice, listening

12:52

to crazy leftists say crazy things, but it takes

12:54

a lot of practice, and

12:57

you get used to hearing it, but

12:59

also in the moment, a lot of what they're

13:01

saying, it's funny to laugh about it, and it's

13:03

funny in the film, intentionally so, but

13:06

it's also really disgusting.

13:08

I mean, well, we just heard the clip you played, of the woman

13:11

essentially calling for a genocide. So

13:15

there's that too, it's like that, that at least in a

13:17

moment, the fact that I'm sitting in the room across from

13:19

these people saying these evil, hideous things, it's

13:21

actually easier for me to laugh about it

13:24

now watching the film myself than maybe it

13:26

was in the moment with these people. But

13:29

one last thing, did anyone actually

13:31

recognize you? Because it's not like

13:33

your costume was particularly sophisticated. You

13:35

put a man bun in, I

13:37

mean, it wasn't like you disguised

13:39

yourself like Mystique from the X-Men

13:41

or something, I mean, you just

13:43

put, what's even your same hair

13:45

color? Not exactly, not

13:47

exactly a shape shifter, I'll admit that. No.

13:50

No, but you know, I didn't, I recognized

13:52

one time and we got kicked out, and

13:55

they called the cops because I made them feel unsafe, even

13:57

though I didn't do anything. But

14:00

other than that, we didn't get recognized. I

14:02

think that speaks to, again, the kind of

14:04

bubble these people live in, where they, you

14:06

know, if you're not in that bubble with

14:09

them then they just, they're not even aware

14:11

of your existence, which is

14:14

a whole other thing, but it certainly

14:16

was an advantage we were able

14:18

to take advantage of. I

14:21

can't wait for your next project, Ed.

14:23

What is a woman, runaway success, you're

14:25

movie out now, Am I Racist? You

14:27

can check it out at amiracist.com. I

14:29

really can't wait to see what your next project

14:31

is. You've become kind of the go-to guy for

14:33

this type of material, and it is so needed.

14:36

I mean, listen, I hate to cite Alinsky, man,

14:38

but he was right, that, you

14:40

know, the power of ridicule, he is 100,

14:42

and these people really ridicule themselves. Matt Walsh,

14:44

the movie is Am I Racist? amiracist.com to

14:46

get your tickets. Thanks for coming on, we

14:49

appreciate it. Thanks, Dan, appreciate it.

14:52

You got it. I'm

14:56

telling you, the Moana scene is

14:59

one of the funniest things you've ever seen, where

15:02

he's asking this DEI lady, who's

15:04

talking about how like weird it is that the

15:07

Disney princesses are white. And he's like, no, no,

15:09

it's good. My daughter watches Moana, it's a woman

15:11

of color. And the lady's like, oh, that's really

15:13

great. Matt's like, but I got a problem. She

15:16

wants to wear the Moana costume, and it's like

15:18

cultural appropriation. The lady's like, oh my gosh, what

15:21

do we do? No one's

15:23

ever posed that deep conundrum. You

15:25

got to watch, just watch it. amiracist.com,

15:29

worth your time. Coming

15:31

up, another great interview, but let's hear

15:33

from our next sponsor first. Genucel. Hey,

15:36

I wish these bags on my eyes would just go away.

15:45

new Genucel skincare serum with plant stem

15:47

wrote, I've been using Genucel for months. The puffiness

15:53

around my eyes is gone. Even

15:55

the crow's feet and small lines have disappeared and haven't come

15:57

back. I love your product. Use it under my eyes, around

15:59

my cheekbones. on my eyelids. Sure, you can

have surgery to look younger, but why on earth would you

16:03

do that? With its instant effects, you'll see results in the

16:05

first 12 hours or your

16:07

money back. I guarantee it,

16:10

order now, say big on GenuCell's complete skincare

GenuCell. Here's

16:35

Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson. He's one of the good

16:37

guys, came on to talk about our shot to

16:39

win a Senate seat in Wisconsin and Donald Trump

16:41

in Wisconsin, which is important, and this

16:43

massive FEMA spending scandal. Listen to this.

16:47

Senator from Wisconsin, he may have the record

16:50

for the most appearances on the Dan Bongino

16:52

show, I'm not sure. Senator Ron Johnson, thanks

16:54

for joining us today. Hello,

16:56

Dan, really appreciate you having me on to talk about,

16:59

you know, our very real opportunity with

17:01

Eric Hovday in Wisconsin and also Lieutenant-Elector

17:03

of votes for President Trump. You

17:06

know, Senator, I gotta tell you, I never,

17:08

I don't, I never fake it with my

17:11

audience. I saw

17:13

this coming for a while now. I've got

17:15

a lot of friends from Wisconsin, Avita Duffy,

17:18

Rachel Duffy, and Sean was

17:20

a congressman there. Avita's a host on my

17:22

network. They know Wisconsin

17:24

politics better than anyone. Her dad was obviously

17:27

a congressman, I know you

17:29

know him well. You're on the show all the

17:31

time telling me about Wisconsin politics. We've talked off

17:33

the record, on the record. This

17:35

is a state, I believe, being crushed

17:37

by the inflation crisis, being hurt by

17:40

the immigration crisis too. They totally get

17:42

it. And that your Senate race is

17:44

competitive with Hovday, who's an amazing candidate

17:47

against, frankly, Senator,

17:49

your coworker there in the Senate on the

17:51

Democrat side, who's done nothing. She takes credit

17:54

for everybody else's work and has never done

17:56

anything, is the least surprising political news I've

17:58

heard all year. Yeah,

18:00

yeah, really in decades of being

18:02

elected official. I don't know anything that

18:04

Tammy Baldwin has really accomplished I really

18:06

don't other than she's gotten elected great,

18:08

you know and they voted for all

18:11

this massive deficit spending Which is devalued

18:13

our dollar and and creates

18:15

so much pain for American families

18:17

But no, this is entirely possible

18:19

these races these statewide races are

18:21

always close in Wisconsin The polls

18:23

are just ridiculous early out, you

18:26

know fire, you know head of the election

18:28

These are gonna be close and what is

18:30

particularly? noteworthy right

18:32

now is Tammy Baldwin felt

18:34

she had to release her internal

18:36

polls which I know Donald Trump

18:39

Donald Trump is up by Three she's

18:41

only up by two. I can't

18:43

believe there's gonna be that many ticket splitters quite honestly

18:46

But you know, she's obviously concerned. This is a

18:48

cry for help. No, hey Democrats, you

18:50

know You guys throw tens of millions dollars

18:52

more in here so I can smear Eric

18:55

hubby and that's really what is So

18:58

grotesque about this Eric hub day would

19:00

be a fabulous senator. He's a serial

19:02

entrepreneur He's taken

19:04

his you know His

19:07

success and he's created shelters

19:09

for Traffic children all over

19:11

the world and yet Tammy Baldwin her

19:14

entire campaign is talking of it denigrating

19:16

him You know smearing him lying about

19:18

him. So he's gonna need help. This

19:21

is entirely possible Eric hub day

19:24

Dot-com he needs small-dollar donations

19:26

We can win this race, but

19:28

he needs the resources to refute

19:30

all the lies and you

19:32

know talk about himself He

19:34

conquered MS. He had muscular sclerosis

19:36

as a 27 year old He

19:39

conquered it through diet and exercise and

19:42

he's an extraordinary individual. He could be

19:44

a great US senator We're

19:46

talking to Senator Ron Johnson from a critical

19:48

state in Wisconsin The reason I have the

19:50

senator on is not just about the

19:53

Senate race going on. He's not

19:55

up in this cycle but his

19:57

his Democratic senator colleague

20:00

Senator Know-Nothing Tammy Baldwin

20:02

is, is because Senator, I read an

20:05

article in the Wall Street Journal, I'm sure

20:07

you probably saw the same one. It referenced

20:09

the fact that yes, Tammy Baldwin, the Democrat

20:11

running for Senate again in Wisconsin,

20:13

bizarrely released a bunch of

20:16

terrible polls. And I

20:18

have a clip I'm going to play tomorrow

20:20

of Mark Halperin and Sean Spicer, where Halperin

20:22

says, hey man, you never do that. The

20:24

only reason you release a bunch of bad

20:26

internal polls is exactly what you just said.

20:28

This is a cry for help. You're getting

20:30

crushed here. And the reason I

20:32

bring it up is in the same article,

20:34

they say, listen, if Kamala Harris loses Pennsylvania,

20:36

it's really bad. She's got probably a 90%

20:38

chance of losing. If

20:40

she loses Wisconsin, there is almost no

20:42

path. There is a 99% chance the

20:45

race is over. That's

20:49

how critical of a state Wisconsin is going to be

20:51

on election night. Wisconsin

20:54

is the quintessential bellwether state here. I

20:56

mean, how Wisconsin goes, I really think

20:58

the nation goes. And again,

21:01

what we are doing on the ground

21:03

is ground game, ground game, ground game. We

21:05

are encouraging everybody to vote early, bank

21:07

that vote so that all of our get out

21:09

to vote efforts are going to be directed toward

21:11

the low propensity voters who will decide this election.

21:14

So if you listen to me in Wisconsin, vote

21:16

now, tell everybody you know to

21:18

vote early. You know, instead of being down

21:21

two, three, four thousand votes because

21:23

early voting on election day, we want to

21:25

be ahead. In

21:27

Wisconsin, you could have miserable weather here. So you

21:30

just can't take the chance. So vote early. And

21:32

again, Eric Hoveday needs support.

21:34

Eric Hoveday dot com. You

21:36

got a national audience. Please flood

21:39

money in here. Tammy Baldwin, of course, has,

21:41

you know, taken advantage

21:43

of Act Blue and the smurfing, which

21:45

finally attorney generals are starting to investigate

21:48

this way too late. But

21:50

I mean, that's from my standpoint, a

21:52

clear violation, a massive violation of the

21:54

campaign finance law. Tammy Baldwin is taking

21:56

advantage of that campaign

21:58

finance violation. We

22:00

need to help Eric Hovde, erichovde.com.

22:03

And let's be clear too about this Senate race, the

22:06

Hovde-Baldwin race in Wisconsin. If

22:09

Eric Hovde wins here, in what would have been

22:11

an upset a few days ago, but

22:13

hopefully now, I think this is a toss up

22:16

and a lot of independent political analysts feel the

22:18

same way. If Hovde wins this

22:20

race, we're doing, I don't wanna get

22:22

ahead of ourselves, but we're looking really good in Montana

22:24

with Sheehy Tester. West Virginia is

22:27

obviously probably a fait accompli at this

22:29

point. Again, I gotta get

22:31

out and vote and execute. Ohio's looking

22:33

a lot better with Bernie Moreno. Senator

22:37

Johnson, we could, and again, we gotta

22:39

execute and bring 10 people with us.

22:41

There's no excuses, no red wave talk,

22:44

but we could have a three, four

22:46

seat buffer in the Senate. And you

22:48

know as well as I do, if

22:50

we lose the Senate and Donald Trump

22:52

wins, he's getting impeached on day one.

22:54

They will make up another charge, felonious

22:56

mopery in the umpteenth degree, piracy

22:59

on the open seas. They'll just make it up

23:01

and he's gonna get impeached if we lose the

23:03

House and Senate. That's just a fact and it's

23:06

gonna be useless to have won the presidency. Yeah,

23:09

it would be 100% nonstop torment,

23:11

which is what he experienced pretty much

23:13

in his first

23:15

term. So no, we can't let that happen.

23:19

Again, we probably need a stronger majority because we've

23:21

got a few Republican senators that don't always vote

23:23

with us. So we need a

23:25

little margin of error would be nice. I don't

23:27

wanna be operating with the thin margin that the

23:29

Speaker Johnson has had to deal with. So we

23:31

need a larger margin in the House. We need

23:33

a larger margin in the Senate. We obviously have

23:36

to win the presidency. And one

23:38

thing I always talk about here in Wisconsin is

23:40

trickle up the elections. We have made sure that

23:42

we have a lot of Republican assembly candidates, even

23:44

in districts where it's gonna be difficult for them

23:47

to win because they're out there

23:49

campaigning hard like Eric Hoveday is. And

23:51

when you vote for one Republican down

23:53

ballot, chances are you're gonna vote for

23:55

people at the top of the ticket like Eric Hoveday,

23:57

like President Trump. It's really the key.

24:00

to President Trump getting 10 electoral votes. So

24:02

again, this is an all out effort. We

24:05

have the ground game in place. We just have

24:07

to execute it, but we need

24:09

resources, erichhuvde.com. erichhuvde.com

24:12

is the website. We're talking to Senator Ron

24:14

Johnson from Wisconsin. Senator, I'm gonna

24:16

switch topics here for a minute. I'm gonna

24:18

ask you for a personal favor here on

24:20

the air. It's more of a professional, not

24:22

so much personal, but this FEMA story is

24:25

the first time in my, I don't

24:27

know, 20 years intensely covering and being

24:29

interested in politics where I have seen

24:31

government bureaucrats on the defensive about flushing

24:34

our money down the toilet bowl. I'm

24:36

serious, I've never seen anything like it.

24:39

FEMA does this every time. And by the way,

24:41

it's Republicans and Democrats. You've seen it. They've

24:43

done it in the past too, where there's an emergency,

24:46

oh, we need more money. Well, what did you do

24:48

with the money we already gave you? And it never,

24:50

they go to Congress and they go, if you don't

24:52

give us money, people are gonna die. I

24:54

have never seen a change in the

24:56

argument as fast as I've seen with

24:58

this Hurricane Helene and soon to be

25:01

Hurricane Milton disaster, where now Mayorkas, when

25:04

he realized they'd spent our FEMA money,

25:06

and yes, it is FEMA money. Don't

25:08

tell me about different pots. It's FEMA

25:10

money on illegals. Now Mayorkas, for the

25:13

first time I've ever seen, is changing

25:15

his story. And he's like,

25:17

oh, I think we're good for now.

25:19

We may not need more money. I

25:22

have never seen that in my lifetime.

25:24

Please, as a professional, do not let

25:26

this go. We have an opportunity for

25:28

people to look under the hood for

25:31

the first time and see what destruction

25:33

this government has done in financing illegal

25:35

behavior over our own suffering citizens. It

25:38

is a freaking disgrace. So

25:41

Dan, you know if we win the majority,

25:43

I'll be the chairman of the permanent subcommittee

25:45

investigation. Actually, I have stronger subpoena power and

25:47

investigatory power than I had when I was

25:50

chairman of the full committee. So I'm looking

25:52

forward to it. You know I will use

25:54

those subpoenas to investigate this, to

25:56

do the oversight. That's what you're seeing here. This is a

25:59

culmination of. decades of Congress

26:01

advocating its oversight responsibility, allowing

26:03

oversight and investigations to pretty

26:06

much atrophy. And the

26:08

administration knows it. And then, then they write

26:10

these appropriation bills, thousands of

26:12

pages, nobody reads this stuff. No oversight

26:15

that are so loosey goosey that

26:17

it probably makes, you know, this

26:19

siphoning of funds, this, you know,

26:21

transfer of funds from FEMA to illegal

26:23

immigrants or to Lebanon or to

26:25

wherever they want to go.

26:27

It's probably legal because Congress, on a bipartisan

26:30

basis, made it legal. We need to tighten

26:32

up this entire process. Congress is

26:34

so dysfunctional. That's also by the way,

26:36

why I'm strongly supporting Rick Scott as

26:39

our leader in our conference. Hopefully the

26:41

majority leader, he'd make an exceptional majority

26:43

leader. And we need the support of

26:45

the public to pressure senators in our

26:48

conference to vote for Rick Scott. Yeah,

26:51

I think he's the best choice as well. I

26:53

really do. And, uh, my endorsement, whatever it means,

26:55

I think he's the best choice. I don't just

26:58

say that cause I'm from Florida either. Senator, I

27:00

know you're not kidding because you have reached out

27:02

to me multiple times. You have

27:04

been looking into DHS secret service and

27:06

the activities of this department for a

27:08

long time. You're not a Johnny come

27:10

lately. You've called me repeatedly about the

27:12

secret service asking for subject matter expertise

27:14

because you're so deeply concerned about president

27:16

Trump nearly losing his life twice. So

27:19

I know you're going to follow up

27:21

and I appreciate that. Let me ask you one last question. I'll let,

27:23

I'll let you go. Senator, I'm sensing

27:25

a real generational shift than the Republican party.

27:27

I'm not prone to hyperbole on this. I'm

27:29

the one telling people don't get into the

27:32

red wave talk because it's stupid and counterproductive.

27:34

However, I'm doing it

27:36

based on evidence, not just personal anecdotes

27:39

from union workers. I know my brother's

27:41

a union guy, not just personal anecdotes

27:43

from friends of mine who happen to

27:45

be black or Hispanic. I'm

27:47

seeing it in polling data, in, in

27:49

Fox news articles and CNN pieces by

27:51

Harry Hinton. We're getting working

27:54

class voters, black male voters, Hispanic

27:56

voters and numbers we've never seen

27:58

before. If we execute. on election

28:00

day, you could see a permanent

28:03

generational shift in what the Republican

28:05

Party coalition looks like moving forward.

28:09

We have become Republicans now, have become the

28:11

party of the working men and women of

28:13

this country. I was at the Trump rally

28:15

in Dodge County on Sunday and had a

28:17

big group of UAW union guys

28:20

and they were enthusiastic. They were enthusiastic to

28:22

support and vote for President Trump and Air

28:24

Company and other Republicans up and down the

28:27

ballot because they realized the Democrat Party is

28:29

now the party of the elite, of

28:31

the billionaires, of the people who are

28:33

using government to their own advantage to

28:35

the disadvantage of ordinary Americans. So no,

28:38

it has been a ski shift in

28:40

terms of who represents the good, hard

28:42

working men and women, the people that

28:44

pay the taxes, that foot the bill.

28:47

That's the Republican Party now and it

28:49

has been a complete change in

28:51

politics. Yeah, I've seen

28:54

it. Folks, Eric Hovety running for Senate

28:56

Wisconsin, an absolutely critical race. We can

28:58

draw some money into that race. It

29:00

will also impact the presidential race in

29:02

Wisconsin. And as I told you, the

29:04

Wall Street Journal, who is really not

29:06

a huge Trump fan, I believe it

29:08

was one of their articles and their

29:10

insiders acknowledged if Kamala Harris loses Wisconsin,

29:12

there is almost no path for her

29:14

to win. An absolutely critical state. Senator

29:17

Ron Johnson from Wisconsin always have an open invite

29:19

on the show. Really appreciate you coming on. Thanks

29:21

for your time. God bless

29:23

you. Thanks for having me on. Take care.

29:26

You got it. Yes, sir. Absolutely

29:28

critical state, folks. If

29:30

I had a rank in importance, not

29:32

the people, it's not a qualitative judgment.

29:34

I think you understand that. Electoral

29:37

importance right now. I

29:39

would say Pennsylvania, Wisconsin,

29:42

Michigan. We win

29:44

Pennsylvania, Kamala Harris is in a world of trouble.

29:46

We in Wisconsin, she's in a cosmos

29:49

of trouble, but I think PA is only

29:52

because there's more electoral votes, there's nine more.

29:55

Michigan the same. Michigan third, I see almost no

29:57

path for. He

30:00

asks for your next, he comes on the show off

30:02

and really passionate about the ongoing crisis in the Middle

30:04

East. Let me get to our next sponsor first. Oh,

30:07

hey, with the tax hikes proposed by Kamala

30:09

Harris, 40% top income tax rates, 7%

30:11

increase to the corporate tax rate, cap gains on

30:14

unrealized gains, and some studies showing

30:16

she's gonna add $2 trillion, probably more by

30:18

the way, to a current $2 trillion deficit

30:20

over the next 10 years. You might be

30:22

thinking it's time to make more of your

30:24

is our friend, Auburn basketball coach Bruce Pearl.

31:11

He's also very involved in the crisis in

31:13

the Middle East about the anniversary of the

31:15

dreadful terror attack in Israel on October 7th.

31:18

I got a lot of feedback about this interview. You're gonna wanna

31:20

listen to it. All

31:23

right, we've had this gentleman on before a

31:25

couple of times. He's always a great guest.

31:27

He is the head basketball coach for the

31:29

Auburn Tigers, but he's also very

31:31

interested in the ongoing conflict in the Middle

31:33

East. He speaks

31:35

out publicly about it often. We

31:37

share a lot of the same concerns about the issue.

31:40

Welcoming back to the show, Bruce Pearl. Bruce, thanks for

31:42

spending some time with us. We appreciate it. Dan,

31:44

it's great to be with you. Thank you for

31:47

the work that you do. There's

31:49

a lot going on in the world right now, praying

31:51

for the folks in Florida, the folks that are recovering

31:53

from the hurricanes in North

31:55

Carolina. But yesterday

31:58

was a tough day, as it was the one. anniversary

32:00

of a great Holocaust. Yeah

32:03

it was and I you know it's a kind of a

32:05

ride. I know yesterday we have the anniversary we're gonna talk

32:07

about that but I know in Auburn

32:09

obviously you know I have a family

32:12

tie to Auburn I'm there often. You

32:14

guys were actually in one of the

32:16

original paths of Helene and luckily

32:19

escaped a lot of serious damage so

32:21

when my daughter called me and said

32:23

she was moving her car up into

32:25

an elevated garage I said in Auburn

32:28

and and she said yeah they were

32:30

in the track too so you guys

32:32

just barely barely escaped I mean Auburn's

32:34

not typically known to be a extremely

32:37

hurricane-prone area. It's not

32:39

Dan but you know we're just we're

32:41

three hours north of the Gulf and

32:43

if you drew a line from Auburn

32:45

directly south you'd kind of

32:47

run right into Panama City and

32:50

so it's if that was ever

32:52

the path yeah Auburn could you

32:54

know could be affected but yeah

32:56

it's been a it's obviously been

32:58

a difficult storm season and just

33:00

praying that that thing that thing

33:02

dissipates a little bit but I

33:04

know I know everybody's trying to

33:06

get ready. Likewise my

33:08

brother so yesterday was the tragic anniversary

33:10

of one of the the most grotesque

33:12

terror attacks in the history of humankind.

33:15

A bunch of demon savages slaughtered

33:17

a bunch of innocents raped them

33:19

killed young children did it and

33:21

videoed it. I mean Bruce

33:24

they were they were proud of this I mean this wasn't

33:26

something they're embarrassed about this is something they're proud of so

33:29

you think yesterday would have been a solemn anniversary

33:31

for even the demon savages to take a break

33:34

but no that's not what happened we had protests

33:36

up in New York on the one-year anniversary of

33:38

this terror attack with the

33:40

River to the Sea Chance the

33:42

NYPD KKK IDF go away I

33:45

mean what we're dealing with here is really demonic

33:47

Bruce this evil is real and if we don't

33:49

handle this and take care of this now it's

33:52

the kind of thing that's gonna come for all of us soon.

33:56

I don't know I don't know how we

33:58

got here. i mean how how

34:00

do we get this far to wear

34:03

uh... you know terrorists are

34:05

reaping and murdering celebrating

34:09

you know you even think back to

34:11

the holocaust uh... and and that tremendous

34:13

strategies of war in world war two

34:16

i think even even on

34:18

both sides no but nobody celebrated too much

34:20

of the killings and uh... you

34:23

know there's there's lots of different stories

34:25

of documentaries of of many of the

34:28

german soldiers that were in the

34:30

camps and performing these

34:32

dastardly these dastardly things even

34:36

they weren't celebrating it like we're

34:38

seeing today and then on top

34:41

of that it isn't just a

34:43

terrorist that we're doing the celebrating

34:46

it's american college students it's

34:48

it's it's other americans here somehow

34:53

are supporting hamas or

34:56

iran or this this

34:58

incredible uh... islamic

35:00

extremist ideology right

35:02

here in this country and uh...

35:06

i don't i don't i don't know how we

35:08

got here but you're right if we don't figure

35:11

out it

35:13

if we don't put a stop to it or it

35:15

don't at least address it we're

35:18

going to work it could become we're gonna become part of

35:20

it or don't

35:22

bruce perle's head coach of the oburn basketball

35:24

team is also are very concerned about the

35:26

conflict in the middle east bruce said some

35:28

important there you and

35:30

i and and i can tell you the the

35:32

the my entire audience i'm pretty sure i can

35:34

speak for all of them we're

35:36

deeply concerned about both sides of

35:39

the issue nobody is celebrating what's

35:41

happening here no one i understand

35:43

that there are innocent palestinians arabes

35:45

jews all that have been killed

35:48

nobody wants that nobody no one

35:50

no reasonable objective moral person anchored

35:52

in god and faith wants that

35:55

however the world is a difficult place and

35:58

is you know gold in my ears said once

36:00

you know we forgive you for killing our children.

36:02

We can never forgive you for making us kill

36:04

yours. We're in the same

36:06

boat now. Bruce, there was a

36:08

ceasefire on October 6th. The

36:11

people living in Northern Israel and

36:13

at this music festival who were just having

36:15

a good time singing and enjoying

36:17

themselves who were raped and killed and

36:19

beheaded, had breasts cut off, they

36:22

didn't break the ceasefire. The paraglider

36:24

terror demon savages did. It wasn't

36:26

the Israelis that did it. It

36:29

was the other side. And unfortunately,

36:31

that's the witch's brew of horribles

36:33

that happened afterwards. It was started

36:36

by them. That's just a fact.

36:39

We got a huge wake-up call and

36:41

we got a huge wake-up call,

36:43

quite frankly, getting into the reality

36:45

that Israel has lived under since

36:47

its birth, right, since its rebirth,

36:50

obviously because there's nobody living in

36:52

their ancestral homeland longer than the

36:54

Jewish people have been

36:56

living in Israel. Okay, it's obviously where

36:58

it all started. And

37:00

it's, you know, anti-Semitism has

37:02

turned into anti-Zionism, but

37:04

Israel has been an attack to the day

37:07

we were born. Thank God, as

37:09

Golda Meir said, there are Arabs that

37:11

love their children more than they hate

37:13

the Jews. And that was

37:16

demonstrated by Anwar Sadat from

37:18

Egypt who made a peace treaty, perhaps even

37:20

King Hussein. Certainly the

37:22

Abraham accords countries, Gulf Arab

37:25

leaders who showed great courage

37:28

to be able to tell their

37:30

people, the majority of whom grew up

37:32

hating the Jews in Israel because of

37:34

what they believed in the propaganda and

37:37

the lies, that this was the proper

37:39

course for peace and prosperity, not only

37:41

for us, but for the region. Okay,

37:44

but there was a segment of the population that

37:46

was left behind in 1948 that never, ever wanted

37:51

to live with the Jews as neighbors.

37:53

In 1948, when Israel was born, 160,000 Arabs were

37:56

there. Today

38:01

there are three million in

38:04

that same region. There's been no

38:06

genocide. That's just

38:08

a bunch of crap. If the Palestinians

38:10

were to get their own state, the

38:12

capital of that state would be East

38:15

Jerusalem. How many Jews would be

38:17

allowed to live in East Jerusalem? And the

38:19

answer is zero. You wouldn't have a Jew

38:21

that would be able to go to a

38:23

wailing wall. You wouldn't have a Christian

38:25

that would be able to go to the Garden of

38:27

Gethsemane. You wouldn't have a Jew that could go to

38:29

the cemetery in the Mount of Olives. This is not

38:32

a two-sided issue. This is

38:34

a one-sided issue. And the

38:36

reward that the Biden administration and

38:40

the leadership has done is they've

38:42

said basically three things since this war

38:44

started. One, Israel's got a right to

38:47

defend itself. Well, no kidding. That's bold.

38:49

Number two, they're calling for a

38:52

ceasefire and a de-escalation. Immediately Blinken

38:54

asked for it the

38:56

day after October 8th, okay,

38:58

and allowing the enemy to continue as

39:01

this. And the third thing they keep

39:03

saying, as a reward for the

39:06

worst Holocaust since the Holocaust, we're

39:08

gonna reward these people with another

39:10

state of their own inside of

39:12

Israel to be able to operate.

39:14

This is insane. And

39:16

the United States has got to get

39:18

off of that policy of

39:21

a two-state solution because that ship has

39:23

sailed. Bruce,

39:25

you know, one of the things that

39:27

irks me about this, I got a

39:29

particularly nice email text exchange

39:31

with Carol Markowitz, who's a wonderful friend

39:34

of mine in Florida. She's a great

39:36

reporter. And she said, listen,

39:38

I just want to thank you for standing with

39:41

sanity on this issue. And I said to her,

39:43

I appreciate that, but I really, I don't

39:45

need it. I don't mean that to be rude.

39:48

I don't. It's such a clear-cut argument to me.

39:50

And I can prove it

39:52

to you because when I debate the

39:54

issue of the Israeli Palestinian issue with

39:56

other folks who take a different perspective,

39:59

it's the amount of ignorance on the other

40:01

side is stunning. I can't tell

40:03

you how many people don't know that the

40:05

Jordanians controlled the West Bank from 48 to

40:08

67. So

40:10

they could have established a Palestinian state.

40:12

That's just a fact. I mean, even

40:14

the garbage Wikipedia editors know that's true,

40:17

but they didn't. They

40:19

only wanted that when

40:21

it was under Jewish control. And when

40:23

I say to them simple things like,

40:25

you know, how many Jews are serving

40:28

in Arab governments as heads of state

40:30

or as justices in

40:33

whatever failed court system they may have in

40:35

a lot of these countries, they're number zero.

40:37

Yet you don't have the same thing in Israel.

40:40

And it's like, they just respond with, well, you

40:42

know, you're a Zionist and they don't respond with

40:44

anything of substance. I guess what I'm getting at

40:46

is it's not a two-sided

40:48

argument because one side has facts that

40:50

may be inconvenient for you. And the

40:53

other side has nothing but like hatred

40:55

and euphemistic talking points. Like they don't

40:57

have anything. But

40:59

the problem is, Dan, nobody's teaching it. We're not

41:01

teaching it in the universities. We're not teaching it

41:03

in high schools. We're institutions

41:05

are staying institutionally neutral. And so

41:08

where are people obviously, you know,

41:10

getting their information? And I'll tell

41:12

you right now, right

41:14

now we still have a hundred hostages. Who

41:17

knows how many of them are alive? But

41:19

we're still not talking about hostages

41:21

every day. We have four Americans

41:23

being held hostage in Israel. And

41:25

I know you as a

41:27

man in the military, okay, you would have

41:30

been the first guy that would have been,

41:32

send me, I will go, we will find them.

41:34

We're gonna rescue Americans. We're not gonna leave them

41:37

there. Tell you right now, Biden

41:39

could get those hostages out in one

41:41

phone call. He calls the Ayatollah like

41:43

right now. And he says, look, Israel

41:46

is fixing to take out your nuclear and

41:49

your oil fields, they can have them anytime

41:51

they want, okay? You

41:53

deliver those hostages back to

41:56

Israel within a week

41:58

or two. If you... don't.

42:01

I'm gonna let Israel do whatever they want to do to you. You

42:04

watch how quickly those hostages get back. We

42:06

don't use any of the

42:08

leverage we have. And what's

42:11

gonna happen next? You know, it's interesting

42:13

to see Nathalie Bennett come out and

42:15

talk about the fact that we should

42:18

go get the nukes right now. Or

42:20

President Trump came out and said, we should go

42:22

get the nukes right now. If not

42:25

now, when? Right

42:27

now, and don't

42:30

forget, President Biden has pledged, like every

42:32

other president, he's not going to allow

42:34

Iran to get a nuclear weapon. Right

42:36

now, we have no influence. We're not

42:38

using any influence or control over Iran.

42:40

They're doing whatever they want. They launched

42:42

500 missiles at Israel. Okay, so obviously

42:45

when Biden says don't, they do. And

42:47

yet we've got to pledge. So there's

42:49

two things to this right now. Let's

42:51

say Israel does not go get the

42:53

nukes. Let's say they don't, they don't

42:55

set them back with a strike. That

42:58

means the next time they send over some

43:00

of these ballistic missiles, one of them could

43:02

be nuclear. And you know, if that one

43:04

got through, it's the start of World War

43:06

Three versus if they, if

43:08

Israel really did right now, with

43:11

Hezbollah being depleted, there must be an

43:13

almost gone, went there and set the

43:15

nuclear program back. How much

43:18

worse off would the world be? How

43:20

much safer would the world be? And as a

43:22

punishment for Israel going ahead and doing that, what's

43:24

the world going to be more pissed off at

43:26

the Jews? All of a sudden they're going to

43:29

start to take a different approach than they're taking

43:31

right now. Your point is an interesting subject.

43:35

Your point is as a hundred percent valid.

43:38

It's accurate. And I think that's what drives the

43:40

quote other side of the debate, which really doesn't

43:42

exist. It's born in ignorance. Absolutely crazy about it.

43:44

I have a secret service in the military, but

43:46

I appreciate your point. Bruce Pearl, you're a good

43:48

man. And I got to tell you, you got

43:50

a lot of guts speaking out. I know the

43:52

temptation and a lot of this is just to

43:54

kind of sit back and let the world pass

43:56

you by. But I

43:58

appreciate you coming on the show.

44:01

and expressing solidarity with civilized humankind.

44:04

We need it. We need people with influence who

44:06

aren't necessarily politicians speaking out too. And it matters.

44:08

I'm getting a lot of great feedback right now,

44:10

Bruce. Well, we do. And

44:13

I want your listeners to know that I'm

44:15

working really hard to have another great year

44:17

with Auburn basketball. We won the SEC Tournament

44:20

Championship last year. We've been ranked

44:22

in the top 10 at one point in the

44:24

season six out of the last seven seasons. And

44:27

while my heart is distracted

44:29

because I love this country, Dan, this

44:31

country saved my family's life. I'm a

44:33

Jewish basketball coach at Auburn, Alabama. Don't

44:36

tell me this isn't the greatest country

44:38

in the world. And I will do

44:40

anything and everything I can to make

44:42

sure that this country continues to stay great,

44:44

that we have the freedoms that we have.

44:48

And obviously, I have a heart

44:50

for Israel and the Jewish people because

44:52

of all the oppression. I'm hopeful

44:54

that we're gonna come out on the other side

44:56

of this and perhaps impress what will

44:59

be better than we are today. And

45:01

I'm grateful that you had me on and

45:04

let me share my thoughts. My brother,

45:06

I'm with you. My brother. And so is my

45:08

audience. God bless you, my friend. Thank you so

45:10

much. Good luck in the upcoming season. It's not

45:12

the last time we'll talk, but I deeply appreciate you

45:15

spending some time with us, Bruce. Thanks a lot. Thanks

45:17

for what you do, Dan. God bless you and War

45:19

Eagle. Bruce, War Eagle. We

45:22

always gotta get to War Eagle, and folks, you

45:24

can't miss out. You

45:28

can't, if you know. Hasn't

45:31

been helping us much for the football team lately, but it

45:34

takes a lot of guts to speak out, folks. It

45:37

does. Believe me,

45:39

the temptation in entertainment, in sports and

45:41

elsewhere, to just be quiet about things

45:43

is pretty profound. So

45:45

we like to have different voices on the show, and

45:48

we wanna make sure this week, even with everything going on,

45:51

that we don't fail to recognize the tragedy that happened

45:53

a year ago on October 7th. Here's

45:56

another one of our fiery rants coming

45:58

up next, but first, our next... sponsor.

46:01

Helix slept on my Helix mattress last night.

46:04

20% off from Helix, all mattress orders for listeners.

46:06

How about that? It's a great deal to motivate

46:08

you to take action and improve your sleep. Paul

46:10

and I just moved into the new house. We

46:12

outfitted the entire house with Helix mattresses. The only

46:14

problem is now we can't get people out of

46:16

there because they love the mattresses. We work hard

46:18

and play hard resulting in long days. So it's

46:20

important we also get a good night's sleep to

46:22

feel rested and refreshed. It all starts with a

46:24

mattress suited to our needs. Listen, anytime

46:26

you can personalize a product to fit your specific needs,

46:29

you're gonna get a better product. Helix

46:31

puts the consumer first. In just a few minutes,

46:34

the Helix team learns about your sleep patterns and

46:36

46:40

your body type and unique needs, Helix will recommend

46:43

46:47

my listeners. I sleep on one, absolutely love it,

46:53

super comfortable. That's helixsleep.com/Dan,

46:56

H-E-L-I-X, helixsleep.com/Dan.

47:01

These tragic storms out there really demonstrate

47:03

how much your government genuinely hates your

47:05

guts. I'm sorry to tell you that folks. I

47:08

ranted about this on the show. Got a lot of feedback.

47:10

Check this out. Man,

47:13

does your government suck? I mean suck.

47:15

I mean really sucks. No

47:18

time where we forget. Welcome to the basketball. Let's go

47:20

ahead and forget it. Jim, keep the

47:22

dump button handy today because I'm not. If

47:24

you just got off the podcast, you know what I mean. I'm

47:28

going to do my best to not incur a

47:32

couple million in FCC fines in

47:34

one show, but your government just

47:36

absolutely sucks. Like sucks like a,

47:39

like one of those, remember those

47:41

before all these stupid, uh, Cal

47:43

farting energy, inflation production act regulations.

47:45

Remember when you vacuum used to

47:47

actually clean things? Those

47:50

things, we had an Electrolux back in the

47:52

day. This guy named her herb. Did

47:55

there any, but nobody was really named her name. He

47:57

sold it. He sold it to us. He was the

47:59

Electrolux salesman. Remember Electrolux? If you grew up in Queens,

48:01

you knew about it. Herb came by. I

48:04

forget his last name. It started with a J

48:06

though. And he sold my mom this really expensive

48:08

Electrolux vacuum. And let me tell you something. That

48:10

thing sucked you in whole. Suck you in whole.

48:13

You could die if that thing

48:15

was dangerous. It would be like in

48:17

space, like getting sucked through a pinhole

48:19

and like being, through one line of

48:22

atoms right outside. That's how bad your

48:24

government sucks. Your government sucks. Suck

48:27

like this. There

48:32

is no bigger suck anywhere

48:34

on earth in government. It

48:36

sucks. It sucks. Anyway,

48:39

Jim, you think the audience is having a tough

48:42

time picking up what I'm putting down folks. My

48:44

being indirect. Your government sucks. Jim's

48:49

like, you were a little on the fence about this. It

48:52

is the most disgusting,

48:54

putrid, fetid, sulfur smelling.

48:57

It's like Rick Wilson's underarms after

48:59

a long flight when you run

49:01

into a JFK. I'm pretty convinced

49:04

the dude does not wear deodorant.

49:06

I don't know what's going on with that guy. That's for

49:08

another day. You all know this story. I

49:11

cannot emphasize to you enough, the

49:13

level of suck your government is that

49:15

you have to give these idiots any

49:18

money. I'm going to exclude obviously

49:21

our heroes in the military court

49:23

system, which we need and

49:25

some basic like intelligence stuff, which

49:27

has all been weaponized anyway, but

49:29

outside of that, your government sucks.

49:33

Okay, Dan, why three minutes on why

49:36

it sucks? I

49:39

see this headline this morning, right, Jim? I sent it

49:41

over this morning. I was so bothered. I didn't even

49:44

send over the headline. I sent over a screenshot

49:46

of the headlines. Poor guys had to look it up, which probably

49:48

didn't take long, but still, I tried to save him the effort.

49:52

Washington Free Beacon. This is real, by the way.

49:54

These guys double check everything. If I ever send

49:56

a screenshot, by the way, guys, general rule, just

49:58

make sure it's real. So, so they

50:00

checked it out for me and it sure, it

50:02

sure is real. Washington free beacon DHS

50:05

secretary, my orchis shops

50:08

for high end menswear as

50:10

mass power outages continue in North Carolina.

50:12

I'm going to up that headline one

50:14

as dead bodies keep showing up in

50:17

trees in North Carolina. What's my orchis

50:19

doing? He's buying a high end underwear

50:21

with the hammock pouch for his balls or something.

50:23

That's what he's doing. He's out there shopping hammock

50:25

pouch to say, I mean, I may be tiny

50:27

and all. I know, but he needs a little.

50:29

He's got to get the high end. You know,

50:32

the underwear that are like one hundred fifty dollars

50:34

a pair. You know what I'm

50:36

talking about. You ever see those underwear? Remember

50:38

back in the day you'd get Jim the

50:40

fruit of the loons, the tiny, tidy whiteys.

50:42

What was that? What was it? Ten pack

50:44

like thirty five cents. That's what you wore

50:46

because back in the day that's that's when

50:48

men were men. That's when that's

50:51

bro. Turn your mic

50:53

off. That's all you need. What did we do, Jim?

50:55

In New York, we left the house at seven in

50:57

the morning in the summer with a baseball glove. You

50:59

stuck it over the end of a bat. You

51:01

leaned it over your shoulder. You if you

51:03

were lucky enough to have a bike, I

51:05

really wasn't. My bike was cheap. Kept falling

51:07

apart. You walked to the park. What time

51:09

did you come back, Jim? Seven, eight, nine

51:11

at night. Seven, eight, nine. Yeah. Right. Where'd

51:14

you drink all day? You drank

51:16

from the neighbor's hose. You probably got a

51:18

bunch of PBCs and deadly compounds. Probably why

51:20

I got cancer later on. Fire hydrant was

51:22

open. Fire hydrant was open.

51:24

You put some water in your mouth. I, well,

51:26

Jim, what did you eat? I ate

51:28

a buttered onion bagel. It was like 25 cents

51:30

at Tommy's Deli. You just throw a beef jerky or

51:33

bag of chips. I don't even know if I ate.

51:36

Nobody knows. Nobody knows. I

51:39

don't even know how I survived. That's when men

51:42

were men. What have we got now? We've

51:44

got 200 and close to 250 dead bodies from Hurricane Helene. Just

51:50

tore apart the country. Right. And

51:52

by the way, hundreds more missing.

51:54

We've got Hurricane Milton getting ready

51:56

to absolutely destroy one of the

51:59

most. powerful cities in

52:01

the United States, Tampa and Florida.

52:03

And what's my orchis doing? My

52:05

orchis isn't out buying fruit of the looms

52:08

and drinking from the neighbor's garden hose if

52:10

they were like, yeah, but most of them

52:12

didn't even have a hose. You just turned

52:14

a faucet they had outside their house. It

52:16

was all rust and you just drank from

52:18

that side. What's he doing? He's buying high-end

52:20

underwear to cradle his nads. That's what he's

52:22

doing. This is the headline. Read the headline.

52:24

You think your boy here is making this

52:26

up? DHS Secretary of my Orchis. Shops for

52:29

high-end menswear as mass power outages continue in

52:31

North Carolina. This is your government. This

52:34

is your government. This is your government.

52:37

You've got, so just in the last

52:39

two weeks, we found out billions

52:42

of dollars, hundreds of billions of

52:44

dollars, have been spent over the

52:46

years on foreign aid, illegals. FEMA's

52:48

been nearly bankrupted by sending money

52:50

for illegals who aren't even US

52:52

citizens breaking all the laws. Now

52:55

when FEMA's needed, because I, last time I

52:57

checked Jim, they didn't change the name, right?

52:59

It's Federal Emergency Management. So

53:02

I think it's for emergencies. Call me,

53:04

but the government, you know what it

53:06

is folks? The government's so freaking stupid

53:08

that there's a real possibility there's nothing

53:10

to do with emergencies. The Federal Emergency

53:12

Management Agency could oversee the SAT because

53:14

the government's so dumb. The

53:16

government's so freaking stupid that there's a good,

53:18

but I found out that they did get

53:21

one thing right. They actually are supposed to

53:23

manage emergencies. So that's why they call it,

53:25

and federally. So that's

53:27

why they call it the Federal Emergency

53:29

Management Agency, Federal Emergency

53:31

Management. So we find out that

53:34

there's a federal emergency. Jim,

53:36

is North Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina, Georgia,

53:38

and Florida in the federal domain of

53:40

the United States? They are. So

53:45

it's not China, it's not Thu-Duck, Vietnam.

53:47

No, it is, okay, so it is

53:50

in the federal jurisdiction. And Jim, has

53:52

there been an emergency in said area?

53:54

Yes, massive emergency. And

53:56

would it require some management? Yes. Okay.

53:59

Okay, so my Yorkis who's

54:01

buying hammock pouch underwear to cradle

54:04

his nads is out there He's

54:06

he's telling Congress. Hey, man,

54:09

I have FEMA underneath me in DHS and I

54:11

need a lot of money and a bunch of

54:15

Republicans me included in conservative hosts like

54:17

wait, why do you need money? The

54:19

government stole? 7 trillion dollars

54:21

from us last year in the form of debt and

54:23

taxes. How could you possibly need more money? Where did

54:25

the money go? Oh, oh, we

54:27

spent it in Lebanon on the

54:29

Taliban and we spent it flying

54:31

illegals around the country To

54:34

illegally invade cities. Oh you did My

54:37

work is we'd like you to come to

54:39

Congress. I cannot come to Congress. I have

54:41

to buy hammock pouch $150

54:44

underwear to cradle my nuts. I cannot

54:46

go and then there's a picture There's

54:49

a picture in case you don't think he's

54:51

shopping for high-end menswear. Someone took a picture

54:53

of this moron Someone

54:56

took a picture of this guy Folks

55:01

55:04

55:07

55:09

55:17

you get to this point of damage? Where

55:19

you wake up and you really believe the government can

55:21

do anything right? Can you tell me one thing? Jim

55:24

I think Jim and Evita right? This was kind of your show

55:26

on Friday like lies liberals tell themselves Can

55:29

you tell me one thing this

55:31

putrid fetid? Cancerous mass we

55:33

call the government does right border. Nah,

55:35

that sucks Social Security.

55:37

Yeah, that's broke Medicare

55:39

doctors aren't even taken anymore. That's

55:41

broke. Uh, what else they

55:43

do public education now? I screwed that up

55:45

We're the worst in the OECD world. Uh

55:49

What about the northern but no even the

55:51

northern border is being invaded now As

55:53

illegals are being kicked out of Canada. Like I just go

55:55

to the United States. They don't care. Is

55:58

there anything the United? States government

56:00

does right. Anything. Anything.

56:02

Can someone name a single thing,

56:04

please? And just one thing.

56:06

Jim, find one. Mike, come on. There's got

56:09

to be one. Just tell me one thing

56:11

they do right. Please. Just one thing. Print

56:15

it. Good. My

56:17

guy. Yeah, that is correct. The government

56:19

does print money really well. You're correct.

56:22

If they want money, they make that

56:24

digitally appear lickety-split. That's a good point.

56:26

The government prints money. They do that

56:28

great. Good point, Jim. I like that.

56:30

It is. It's an actual skill. I

56:32

didn't say to Jim good or bad. I just meant a skill.

56:35

I mean, you can be a drug dealer.

56:37

You're a really morally inept evil person, but

56:39

you can be a better drug dealer than

56:41

the other guy because you're just a scumbag,

56:43

right? So the government's really good. I

56:46

didn't say good or bad. The government is really good

56:48

at printing money. That's correct. That's what they're going to

56:50

say. That's one thing. My

56:54

orchis. My orchis. So

56:56

just to be clear, here's your government. You've

56:58

got President Biden on the

57:00

beach, testicular tanning with the copper tone

57:03

in Delaware as entire towns are wiped

57:05

off the map. Whole towns. Whole

57:07

towns. You can go. Was it

57:09

Chimney Rock, Asheville? No, you can go look at

57:12

these places, by the way. If

57:14

you go to the maps

57:16

overhead image before and after, there's

57:19

nothing left. So you've

57:21

got the President United States on

57:23

the beach catching some sun, you

57:25

know, maybe drinking a

57:27

mojito with Dr. Jill, the world's

57:29

most prominent neurosurgeon, right? He's

57:32

sitting there. He's sitting there in his drawers.

57:34

He thinks he's sitting there in a bathing

57:36

suit. They're like, Oh, Mr. Biden, those are

57:38

actually your underwear. Did I get them from

57:40

my orchis? They have the hammock pouch. This

57:43

other jerkwad is out there shopping for high

57:45

end underwear or something. And as people are

57:47

dying, you've got Kamala Harris going on a

57:49

sex podcast where they talk about like three

57:51

Sims and stuff. No big

57:54

deal, folks. Then she's on the view with

57:56

Sonny Hostin, who's probably just five minutes

57:58

away. from an institution if Donald Trump

58:00

gets elected. This is what's going on

58:02

in your country right now. This

58:05

is it. And

58:08

then, you're

58:10

like, come on, at least it can't get any worse. Oh,

58:12

I'm not even done. I haven't even gotten to the first

58:14

story yet. Jim, cue up

58:16

for me, come on. So Peter Ducey, who's

58:19

the only actual news journalist in the White

58:21

House press room, decides to ask Kareem Jampier

58:23

a question yesterday. Like, hey, Kareem, we got

58:25

a $7 trillion government. You know, that's kind

58:27

of a lot. You're spending a lot of

58:29

money. How is it that

58:32

Alejandro Mayork is between episodes of shopping

58:34

for, quote, high-end menswear? When he stops

58:36

shopping, why is it he's going to

58:38

Congress asking for more money? You're

58:41

giving all this money to Lebanon,

58:43

to Taliban, illegals. How could you

58:45

possibly need more money? Watch Kareem

58:47

Jampier, like a little child, meltdown.

58:49

This is, there has never been

58:51

a worse press secretary

58:53

in the history of press

58:55

secretaries. I mean, anywhere. I'm

58:57

talking about like Baghdad Bob

59:00

is right now going, thank

59:02

God for Kareem Jampier. Everyone,

59:04

no one else is gonna, there are no

59:06

troops in Baghdad. No one's gonna remember that

59:08

moment anymore. They're only gonna replace it with

59:10

Kareem Jampier moments. Here she is storming off

59:13

the stage because she's asked the question, how

59:15

the hell could the government be out of

59:17

money? You're already stealing everything we own. Check

59:19

this out. What does it say about his

59:21

values? There's not enough money right

59:23

now for people in North Carolina to be needed.

59:26

That's not misinformation. Wait, no, that

59:28

is, your whole premise of

59:31

the question is misinformation, sir. What

59:33

you don't, yes, yes, it's misinformation. Is there

59:35

money that says Lebanon right now? I just

59:37

mentioned, I just mentioned to you that we

59:39

provided more than $200 million to

59:42

folks who are impacted in the area. And

59:44

I just shared with you that people are

59:46

deciding not to, people

59:49

are deciding not to, not to,

59:51

wait. I've heard of Congress that there's not enough money

59:53

to help people in North Carolina. We're talking about the

59:55

SBA disaster loan. That's money for people in North Carolina.

59:58

And that's important and people in North Carolina need. that.

1:00:01

Wait, this is nothing new. Peter, this is

1:00:03

nothing new. Congress comes

1:00:05

together, they provide money, millions

1:00:07

of dollars, for disaster

1:00:09

relief. We're asking them to do the job

1:00:11

that they have been doing for some time.

1:00:14

The president's letter

1:00:18

is not misinformation, would you agree? No, the

1:00:21

way you're asking me the question is

1:00:23

misinformation. There is money that we are

1:00:25

allocating to the impacted areas and there's

1:00:27

money there to help people who truly

1:00:30

need it. There are survivors who need

1:00:32

the funding, who need the funding. You

1:00:34

can't call a question that you don't

1:00:36

like misinformation. They are not near Baghdad,

1:00:38

don't believe them. They are nowhere. This

1:00:41

is silly. Folks,

1:00:46

I'm telling you, Baghdad Bob,

1:00:48

his family right now, is like thank

1:00:51

God for Kareem Jean-Pierre, we've got her

1:00:53

now. That

1:00:55

she has the cojones to

1:00:57

tell Peter Ducey that

1:01:00

his question is misinformation, yet every

1:01:02

single point he made in the

1:01:04

question is an

1:01:06

accurate number from the Biden administration.

1:01:09

Yes, she just sent out a

1:01:11

tweet about hundreds of millions of

1:01:13

dollars to Lebanon. Yes, Alejandro Mayorkas,

1:01:15

when he's done with his high-end

1:01:17

menswear shopping, did ask for more

1:01:19

money for FEMA. Yes, FEMA has

1:01:21

given hundreds of millions, if not

1:01:23

billions, of dollars to illegals. Kareem

1:01:26

Jean-Pierre can't handle it. She can't

1:01:29

handle it because the truth hurts. These people lie

1:01:31

to you all the time. Why do you take

1:01:33

it? Why do you take it?

1:01:36

Why do you take it? Folks, I only

1:01:38

got 30 seconds before the computer probably cuts me off

1:01:40

here because I'm already way late. If you're not voting

1:01:42

in this election, you're the problem. I would never

1:01:44

tell anyone to not listen to my show except for

1:01:47

today. If you're not voting and you're just sitting this

1:01:49

out, this show is not for you. I'm sorry, girl,

1:01:51

don't go away mad. Just go away like Motley Cruz

1:01:53

said. You are part of the problem. If you are

1:01:56

not voting and bringing 10 people with you and you

1:01:58

continue to tolerate this, you were

1:02:01

an accessory to this crime

1:02:03

on humanity. These morons, these

1:02:05

morons running our lives. Hey,
