Don't tell my wife. Hey, let's see. First of all, Chad, I hope you had a great weekend. I really do. A great American weekend. Did you see producer Jim this weekend on X asking how people feel about mayonnaise on hot dogs?

25:50Did you see that? Have you heard of such a thing? Isaac's saying no to me. He's shaking his head. No. In fact, he looks disgusted actually by the question. And rightfully so, because I'm pretty sure that mayonnaise on a hot dog is a serial killer move. That's, and I love, I'm a guy who loves both. I love hot dogs. I love mayo. I just don't mix them. I think that's the weirdest thing I've ever heard of. I talked to Jim today as I do each morning. I called him this morning and we were prepping for today's big radio show. Remember nationwide 12 to three rumble.com slash Vince. If you want to watch it.

26:20And I said, Jim, are you serious about that? That mayonnaise thing? Did you put mayonnaise on a hot dog this weekend? because we were on the verge of calling this thing off, like straight up. I was going to call Westwood one and say, look, I've got to get a new producer. This can't happen. I can't have this weirdo in my life. And it turns out he did not have mayonnaise on a hot dog.

26:41Dan Bongino:Even to this very hour, I'm not even really sure why the hell he asked that question, but it did, as he, I think, enthusiastically told me, it kicked off a lot of engagement. So mayonnaise on a hot dog. I'm not, I'm not even encouraging you to try it. I'm just asking you to pray for Jim. That's actually what's happening right now. I'm asking you to pray for Jim and for his soul. My boyfriend puts mayo on hot dogs and fries. Are you serious? Okay. First of all, the mayo on the fries thing, mayo, you can do that if you want. People have vinegar on fries. Mayonnaise is just eggs and vinegar. My wife's anti-mayo.

27:18I'm always telling her, you eat the other components. You eat them when they're separate, vinegar and eggs. And Allison tells me, no, no, no. I don't like mayonnaise. Okay, whatever. But the French fries can sometimes spill into the mayo. You know what I mean? People like, I'm okay with the mayo on the hamburger, little ketchup and mayo on a hamburger. Legit. Legit. It spills over, gets on the French fries. Totally fine. On a hot dog? I don't know what your boyfriend's doing. You may want to run a background check on that guy. Yeah. And then Duckman91 says pineapple on pizza. I know this is controversial, but I don't even care.

27:55Yes to pineapple on pizza, 100%. Pineapple? For sure. No question at all. Are you serious? Yeah. Pineapple is great. Let me add one component that you might be missing. You probably have the ham if you've got the pineapple or the Canadian bacon. I don't know why they call it that. It's just a version of ham. But bacon. Add bacon to the trio. Pineapple? Canadian excuse me pineapple ham and regular old American bacon put those three on have a fantastic time it's very good yeah see look at this look at this oh the chat's all in the chat's all in on the pineapple me too I love it it's really good stuff all right anyway yeah but besides you need a good snack to eat when you're you know watching all these people get prosecuted One more for you, Chet.

28:43Who do you want to see placed into a mugshot first? If you had your pick here, if you had your pick for who would get the walk of shame first, and I'm talking like the full-blown, classic, old-school, prison, black-and-white stripe jumpsuit, who do we want first? Obama? Obama? I'm seeing a lot of Obamas. People are saying, no, the chat's not for pineapple. Yes, you are. You've got to change your position. If you were anti-pineapple before, you're pro-pineapple now. I'm sorry. Them's the rules. Obama. There's some Hillary's. There's some Comey. You know, there is a scenario I should mention where Obama doesn't end up on the receiving end of the arrest.

29:28And the reason for that could be the Supreme Court decision that said that presidents are owed immunity for their official acts as president. Remember, that was President Trump in that case. The left raged about it. I remember saying at the time that think about this, though, if the president if President Trump has conferred immunity for his official acts, then nobody has to be more grateful

29:54Dan Bongino:than for that than Joe Biden. Joe Biden, who sold out your damn country over and over and over again, the guy who kicked the border wide open, imported imported millions of illegal aliens into it and made the country a sadder place as a result. That guy has to be, if his brain was operating, he'd be grateful that the Supreme Court ruled that he had some immunity. We'll see. We'll see what happens with Obama. Obama may be the beneficiary of that Supreme Court decision in the end. But again, the court did distinguish, I should point out, between official and unofficial acts, official and unofficial acts.

30:31I do have a good buddy, former U.S. attorney for D.C., Joe DiGeneva. Perhaps you've heard his analysis before. He's really great.

30:40Dan Bongino:And he was saying this morning that Obama is unlikely to be prosecuted in this way because of the presidential immunity decision. And for that, he would have President Trump to thank. So we'll see on that one. But boy, I really want to see these guys cuffed. Give me the mugshots, baby. I'm tired of these things taking off. I know more about this case than almost any case I could possibly know about. And all I don't know is when the prosecutions are finally going to come through. I'd like to see that happen. I'd like to see how this story ends. And I know you would too. All right. And enjoy pineapple on your pizza.

31:17I'm sorry if that wasn't what you did before, but now it's official. Hey, I've been using the Bone Charge Infrared Sauna Blanket. I have. And the Red Light Face Mask.

31:25Dan Bongino:Ever since they sent them to me and Allison, we can't recommend them enough. I first turned to the sauna blanket to help with muscle recovery and detoxification. It's been a total game changer for me. It's very easy to use. I just wrap myself up, let the infrared heat work its magic. I've noticed a real difference in how I relax and how I rejuvenate and feel afterward. That red light face mask, Alison loves it. She loves it. She wears it every single night. It's great. It's great for improving your skin's texture, reduces inflammation. She's seen fantastic results. It's like having a mini spa treatment right at our house.

34:43How

34:44Dan Bongino:engaged do you think the rest of the administration is in this story? Yeah, well, the first thing that kind of perplexed me about this was this came out at the end of last week. And this to me, just as we start to talk about how the administration is rolling things out on the comms front, especially right after the Epstein stuff, I would have loved for this to come out on a Monday and absolutely dominate the news cycle. Because as I'm reading my newsletters this morning, it's not really, it's not being talked about. Mainstream media is, you know, grazing right over it. And so that's where you start to really hope that the DOJ is engaged in this, that the White House is going to have a hand in how this is marketed and talked about in the media and is going to push this huge, huge investigation.

35:31It's absolutely mind-blowing and something that needs to be hammered in the media the same way the mainstream media has been hammering these Epstein files. And I think you touched on it there, Vince, about the DOJ really needs to get some prosecutions out of this to, I think, win back the trust of the MAGA base. I think this is a great opportunity to show maybe those who are a little distrustful of what happened with the Epstein files, that the administration means business, that this is something to pay attention to, that they're going to deliver results for you. And so that's something I really absolutely hope that they are engaged on.

36:10Dan Bongino:No question. If it, fellas, can we put my screen up for a moment. I want to show Reagan in the audience this piece from Paul Sperry. This is last week, July 16th. And this is when he reported that Trump administration officials had an urgent meeting now two Sundays ago to discuss new information on Russiagate. And at the meeting, participants in the meeting involved intelligence officials and their Department of Justice counterparts. And they discussed declassifying investigative notes and depositions taken by special counsel John Durham during his probe of the CIA's and the FBI's handling of the intelligence community assessment.

36:52Dan Bongino:That was the one that was released on January 6th of 2017, which relied in part on an anti-Trump dossier financed by the Hillary Clinton campaign. So we do have some indication, Reagan, that the Justice Department is involved right now in getting all of this out. And if the timeline is correct, that means they had a massive meeting last week, Sunday. And then all of this information starts getting released on Friday. This just may be the circumstances they're dealing with rather than, I don't think Tulsi Gabbard was trying to bury it. I don't think that was the point of the Friday night news dump.

37:26No, totally. I think it's great to see the Justice Department engaged in this because when I was doing some reporting on the Epstein files and talking to my sources, just widespread across the administration. There seemed to be a ton of frustration with the Department of Justice, not just coming from the FBI, but also coming from the White House. And people thinking that the staff that's supporting Pam Bondi is misleading her or not supporting her correctly and not really getting the results that they're supposed to be doing, that they're misleading her about what was in the Epstein files and on various other cases, and that maybe potentially there needs to be some consequences for those lower staffers.

38:05And so hearing that the Justice Department is involved and is on the same page with the White House, I think, is something not just only the base needs, but the administration needs, because internally it's it's very frustrating for a lot of officials, a lot of senior officials. You know, in Tulsi Gabbard's disclosures this weekend, she did a couple of press interviews. I'm hoping to talk to her. I really hope she comes on one of my programs.

38:36Dan Bongino:And by the way, if anyone in the office is listening, please come on the program. I want to talk to Tulsi Gabbard. I think that'd be worthwhile. while. But that said, she was posting this weekend that she's providing all these documents because she wants to the Department of Justice because she wants to deliver, quote, accountability. The word that Tulsi keeps using is accountability. This is a woman who's now leading the intel community who is absolutely begging the Justice Department to prosecute. I've never seen a director of national intelligence use the phrase treasonous conspiracy. Seems like a big deal.

39:13Yeah, and doing it so publicly. The Daily Caller reported last week that the administration has made a big deal over leaks and these leakers and prosecuting these leakers and holding them accountable. and the reporter for the Daily Caller, Rob McGreevy, reported that the DOJ has not made one prosecution on these leaks and is kind of questioning where this was. And when asked to the Department of Justice where these prosecutions were, he told me the response was very short, very brief, just no comment. Didn't even want to engage and talk back and forth about what they were working on behind the scenes.

39:51And so to see Tulsi Gabbard make this so public that you need to get accountability on this issue, I think is really notable and something that you're right to read between the lines on. So here's another thing.

40:06Dan Bongino:The president needs attorneys in place. He needs U.S. attorneys to do this job. And he's been nominating a bunch of people, but they haven't confirmed anybody. He's got acting U.S. attorneys all over the place, but he needs full-time attorneys. What's going on with the United States Senate? The president must be completely ticked off with the with the Senate failing him so far on this. I think this is a great question that I hope to raise to the White House, because we asked early on about the judicial nominations that the president needed to make. And those those confirmations that he needed in the White House behind the scenes, I know, is working on it.

40:43But there's just been so many fine details to get through and do background checks. But President Trump was really honest, I think, about how he feels about this. He posted a Truth Social this weekend calling for Senator Thune to cancel August recess and long weekends so that he can get his attorneys through. And so far, no progress on that. Still looks like they're going to make that August recess, which I think is it's incredibly frustrating. I wish I got an August recess from reporting, but you don't get that. So I think members of Congress need to be back out there, too, as well.

41:17Dan Bongino:I mean, the other piece is like the president. The president has the power of a recess appointment. Would you ask the White House whether or not he could force these guys into a real recess, not just a pro former recess so that he can start getting these people placed officially? I know that everyone in the Senate, they're like, oh, we can't do that. Really? Because the entire agenda of the presidency is on the line and now be maybe a good time to actually go into a real deal recess. Yeah, that's a great question. And I do, Vince, I'm sure your readers know you're an editor at the Daily Caller, and I'm often calling you for question ideas before I head into the briefing and we talk about these things.

41:58And so I'm not just saying yes. Oh, yeah, that sounds like a great idea. I go to you all the time for advice. So I'm writing that down. I'm going to write that down once I get off this hit, because I think that's a great question that needs to be asked. And so far, we don't think there's going to be any press briefings this week, but maybe the president will make some public appearances to talk about it. Something has to be done. And I am so appreciative of you. Yeah, we do talk. Reagan and I talk all the time about all sorts of things and the questions for the White House. And, you know, we're just plugging away.

42:29What was it actually last week that you asked? You asked a question.

42:32Dan Bongino:What did remind me what you asked last week? Because I remember thinking, oh, that was such an important story. It was Congresswoman Salazar's bill that was going to give illegal immigrants path to citizenship. And what Caroline Levitt told me was that President Trump has not gotten a chance to read the bill, but under no circumstances will he support amnesty. And I had asked if the president would veto this bill. And so she didn't explicitly say yes or no. But I to me was a very strong rebuke of the legislation. Have you heard anything else since then? Is the White House keeping its distance from this legislation?

43:09Dan Bongino:Is there any scenario where they would support it, or is your impression that they've dunked this thing and they're moving on? My impression was that they dunked it. They were asked about it a second time and she just reiterated that answer and basically said this isn't something the president would be looking to support. He's been very clear about this, but I'm definitely going to be keeping some tabs on it because I think it's been confusing back and forth, even with, you know, the farms in America and what they're going to do with their label, their labor and their workforce. And now this bill is coming up that has 10 Republicans have signed on to it, 10 Democrats have also signed up for it.

43:49So it does have some support. But if the White House is going to be super clear about it, to me, it's dead upon arrival.

43:55Dan Bongino:So I've heard Tom Holman talking lately that the White House is going to release some sort of plan soon, or at least the administration, maybe not the White House directly. The administration is going to release some sort of plan soon for how they prioritize people for deportation or whether or not farm and hospitality workers can stay. What else are you hearing, if anything, on this? Well, I think this, Vince, comes from a place of wanting to get those deportations up and trying to really juice those numbers. It was early on in the administration, you know, before 100 days, we were getting these reports that President Trump wasn't super happy with the mass deportation efforts.

44:35If you asked him about it, he would say, you know, I'm happy. If you started to ask Tom Holman about it or Stephen Miller about it, they were pretty happy with it, too. And then all of a sudden they all made a switch and said, no, actually, this isn't happening fast enough. This isn't good enough. We want to ramp up these numbers. So when I look at this and I talk to people about this, it looks like this effort to really just double down on their immigration efforts and deliver for the American people. I think this is the issue that the White House recognizes is their strongest issue that they can really they've really come through for the American people on immigration and that they can use this to provide for them.

45:15Dan Bongino:Yeah, they shouldn't. I don't think they should release any prioritization message. I just deport people. That's all like, you know, go after the most violent people first. Obviously, that's the thing that makes makes communities a lot safer. but don't even suggest that somebody might be able to stay here illegally because that'll just attract more illegal immigration. That's my advice for what it's worth. But I just hope that they don't snatch in any way defeat from the jaws of victory because they're having a lot of success right now on securing the border and kicking people out. I like seeing that.

45:46Dan Bongino:Hey, let me move to a different issue with you. The president over the weekend seemed to indicate that he hates the name of the Washington football team, the Washington commanders right now. There's this big move for them to move their entire stadium operation right into the District of Columbia. And he wants to see the Redskins come back. What's happening here? Well, this is a change in tone from President Trump. He was actually asked about this a couple of weeks ago, and he responded to the reporter and said, you're trying to get me in trouble and kind of dodged around the issue, which I think is very rare for President Trump to do.

46:24And so I was kind of taken aback when I saw this truth social yesterday that he wants to bring the Redskins names back and that he is going to block the stadium from being built in Washington, D.C. I'm not exactly sure what caused his change in heart. I think it's very interesting that he changed. And I think it's a great idea. I think the stadium being in Washington, D.C. would be so good for the city. As someone who has gone to the Commander's Stadium right now, it takes forever to get to. And so to have it right downtown, it would be really awesome and just bring a lot of life back to Washington, D.C.

47:02And so I, you know, if I can endorse this idea as a journalist, I endorse it. I think it's a great idea for President Trump. Yeah. Also, Washington tells enough lies. Why do they have to lie about where their sports team is? Let's let's resolve that.

47:16Dan Bongino:It's it's not the Washington commanders right now. It's the Maryland commanders. Like, let's let's be honest about that. Sorry. Sorry, Giants and Jets. I apologize. No, totally. But but but yeah, you should move them. They should move. So the president says they should be called the Redskins again. I totally agree. At least that name has history and character. And and when they survey Native Americans, it routinely comes back that they're cool with it. In other words, people like it. They like it. What is the deal? Why is it that we keep erasing history? We erase the Land O 'Lakes Indian. She's not there anymore.

47:53And I love the joke, of course, is that we kept the land. But we got rid of her. We got rid of her. And so how does that help anybody, you know? And why do the chiefs get to keep their name? That's the other thing I've never understood. The Kansas City chiefs, they get to still be the chiefs. I would think that would be offensive also to the Native American community. And for the Washington Redskins, I don't think they even pick something that fit them. Like we see the Cleveland Indians, they became the guardians. And I think that caught on and people essentially forgot that they were ever the Indians, that there was separate controversy.

48:24But the Washington commanders, it's just like, what is it? I guess a commander is a general, but if you go to the stadium, it's like a pig dressed as a soldier. And that's not really fierce. That's not what I think of when I think of American football, I want something that's tough and scary. And I think it's like, it's like a chat GPT name. It's like a chat. It's like a chat GPT football name. Like it was like, quick, come up with a name for a football team, the Washington commanders. It's so boring and generic. Just make it the Redskins again. Man, that's the whole thing is so silly. And yeah, the president said he wants the Indians back, too.

49:02Although apparently the team is like, no, we like Guardians. Everyone's kind of grown accustomed to it. I think we're going to stick with it. We'll see what happens. But the president does have some more influence on the Redskins question because of Washington, D.C. and it being federal land. Yes. Yeah, he does. And just on that topic, too, I do think we're going to see some movement with and we've talked about this, Vince, with the Congress maybe taking back D.C. I asked President Trump about this after there was an intern that was gunned down, just caught in crossfire in an area that's not actually very far from the White House.

49:42And right after that, I'd asked the president, you know, are you thinking like D.C. is not safe? Listen to this story that happened. Do you think Congress should take back D.C. and make it safe again? And he was like, you know, I could see you kind of thought about it. And he was like, you know, I want to make D.C. safe. I think we'll have an announcement coming about that next week. And then a week later, he said, you know, we're going to try to have Congress take back D.C. And so in terms of just President Trump leaving his imprint, not just on the country, but on the city of D.C. and really making this this thriving capital that people are proud to live in.

50:17I think that's something that he is also trying to make a part of his agenda as well.

50:22Dan Bongino:Yes. And Congress, by the way, for many years, ran Washington, D.C. And then eventually they established something called D.C. Home Rule. And they basically allowed this ridiculous city council and mayor to run the whole operation. It's not made the city better in any measurable way. And in fact, it's just Congress abdicating its responsibility for running the federal district. So definitely Congress should reassert control over the district, because if they don't, you end up with ridiculous mayors who offer endorsements for crime by painting murals. in front of the White House in the midst of the riots as some sort of ransom payment to the rioters.

50:58Dan Bongino:It's grotesque, actually. And it's long overdue for Congress to reassert control. All right. Last thing for you while we're on the issue of sports. You're an athlete yourself. The WNBA, I just found out this morning, you know, they lost 40 million dollars last year. They lost the WNBA lost 40 million dollars last year, although the women are all demanding that that they be paid what they're due. I'm like, I don't know if you want that, ladies. If you find out what you're due, it's not going to work out well for you. You're going to have a bill show up to your house. They lost 40 million, which by the way, is the same amount of money that Stephen Colbert lost last year.

51:32$40 million. It's just amazing. Just amazing. Tell me what you think about this, this WNBA. They're demanding all this money right now. What do you think? Good idea, bad idea? Well, they just, like you said, they're losing money. And so I saw a ton of jokes on Twitter this weekend. I loved opening up Twitter where they were just talking about, well, actually, if they find out how much they're actually worth and they should be paid, they would be owing the WNBA, the NBA who's, you know, kind of takes care of the league money. But, you know, sports, I think it's the year of 2025. We're supposed to be keeping politics out of sports.

52:07And I was a college softball player. I'm really big into pro softball and college softball. And if you want something that is just down to earth and Americana, it's college softball. The best team in college softball for the last five years is always talking about God. In every single interview, they give glory to the Lord for all of their success. They're very down to earth. They're these patriotic Americans. They're always talking about how they love living in the country and just are so thankful for the opportunity to play softball. And so I watch college softball and pro softball, and I wish that is what the country was fixated on, because these girls absolutely deserve the success and the fame that I think and the attention that maybe the WNBA has gotten, because it is a sport that truly represents the American people.

52:59And so I would encourage your listeners to go watch college softball.

53:04Dan Bongino:Well, I didn't expect softball propaganda today, but I'm kind of buying into it. but I like it. So, so, but that sounds totally different than the WNBA actually, in almost every measurable way, because the WNBA is characterized by entitled women who are constantly punching each other and who can't dunk in a, in a sport that requires dunking to be interesting. Yeah. And you also, I think people expect softball to kind of be maybe boring because there's, it's not as back and forth as basketball is, but there are cheers. There are props. People are screaming at the field and it gets a little tense.

53:39There's people kind of getting in each other's faces and it's really a nail biter. And for, you know, year after year, I think softball, you know, increased in its views and its attention, but it's not this. I don't even know these whining girls on the court complaining about not being paid enough and beating each other up and whatever.

54:00Dan Bongino:So here's where I think the WNBA is headed. First of all, Like nobody pays attention to it for the basketball until Caitlin Clark got involved. And that was, that's the interesting story. The outside of that, I can kind of see what's happening, which is the WNBA realizes that the only way they're going to attract any viewers whatsoever is if they make the women fight each other. This is, it's becoming, it's becoming roller derby. Actually, you don't go for the athleticism. You go to see women beat up on each other. It does seem like it's very rapidly descending into a ridiculous reality show that plays to the worst stereotypes of women having to work together.

54:37Totally. It's absolute chaos. And I mean, I do think they're getting rewarded almost for these fights because Sophie Cunningham, she's a player on the Indiana Fever who defended Caitlin Clark because Caitlin Clark is just being just pushed and punched and just beaten on the court. When she defended her, her jersey sold out and it was she got all these followers on social media. but it's just so sad what the league has amounted itself to and I feel so bad for Caitlin Clark because she's hurt for the third time this season and it's so devastating I think to see such a great basketball player like her now suffering all these injuries because of the way she's abused on the court and if they would just get along I think the league could have have so much success and they had such something so great in front of them for women's sports I love women's sports and watching women's sports.

55:30And they totally blew it by just putting Caitlin Clark down and beating her up and making it this whole political stunt. It's so sad. And I think it puts women across the country, girls who want to be in sports, who look up to them at a disadvantage. It's all too crazy. They're just trying to make them fight till we watch. Look, there's girls fighting. Let's watch that. Hey, thank you. Reagan Reese, you're the best. White House correspondent for the Daily Call. keep up the great work good to talk to you today thanks vince all right there she is reagan reese

56:03Dan Bongino:the great reagan reese uh okay let's see here uh we've got one other thing here i mentioned 40 million dollar losses for the wmba you know that as i mentioned stephen colbert lost 40 million bucks that's why they're firing him the left is still acting like it's a big conspiracy theory though to get rid of stephen colbert oh it's because he supports democrats that's why they're getting rid of him. No, it's because he's horrible and because he's losing a lot of money. That makes all the sense in the world. They should have got rid of him a long time ago. Here's Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy releasing a video this weekend, cut six, insisting that Stephen Colbert was canceled because of politics.

56:41This is a really, really dangerous moment. Stephen Colbert didn't get thrown off the air because he wasn't doing well. He was the highest rated show on TV in late night. He was canceled, very likely, because Paramount and its owners are trying to get rich off of this merger. And Donald Trump has made it clear to them and everybody else in the media space that if you want any favors from me, then you have to silence my critics on your platforms. Oh, yeah. And CBS is going out of its way to help Trump. That's their thing. They love helping Trump out. Oh, my gosh. What an idiot that guy is. That's Senator Chris Murphy.

57:21Hakeem Jeffries also shared a clip of himself this weekend, like issuing condolences of some kind to Stephen Colbert. Here's the clip he shared of himself on The Late Show,

57:34Dan Bongino:pretending to know rap music. Got seven. You famously have quoted Biggie Smalls. Do you have any quick quote for us before we go? Stay far from timid. Only make moves if your heart is in it. and live the phrase, the sky's the limit.

57:53He speaks slow because he thinks slow. That's how came Jeffries. There he is. Yeah, a whole bunch of these guys were sharing messages this weekend. This is awful. Tampon Tim Walls shared one too. He wrote, Stephen Colbert is the best in the business.

58:10Dan Bongino:And of course, it's like the rest of these guys, they're all like Obama. They share pictures of themselves in order to tell this story. Stephen Colbert is the best in the business. He always told truth to power. Yeah, right. And pulled no punches. We need more of that, not less. This guy was a handmaiden to power. The guy was literally, this is the reason it wasn't any good. He was just advancing Democrat talking points on television. People grew bored. They went somewhere else. And that dude lost$40 million a year. What a waste. What a complete and utter waste.
