In short
Dan Bongino’s monologue on “Reflecting Pool Lunatics” (the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool algae/cleanup controversy) as an example of “Tower of Babel” politics—where facts and reason are rejected and media narratives become obsessed with Donald Trump rather than the underlying issue.
Guest backgrounds
No guests are interviewed in the provided transcript. The only “guests” mentioned are Bongino’s co-hosts/crew and family members (e.g., Jasmine; Andy, Josh, Guy, Justin), plus public figures referenced in clips (Stephen King, Barack Obama, Scott Jennings, New York Times, Toronto Star).
Key claims
The algae story is portrayed as intentional reality distortion; leftists supposedly escalate “show your ass” anti-Trump positions (even pro-algae). Bongino argues the left’s goal is power, not ideas, and that they will flip positions when Trump is no longer an obstacle. He also claims Obama spent about $34M on reflecting pool cleanup (vs. Trump’s ~$14M) and that media ignored Obama’s spending.
Notable examples
Stephen King’s comments; dinosaur costumes/pro-algae protest imagery; Oakland car break-in decline affecting auto-glass businesses; comparisons of Gaza to New York City; claims about Reagan tax cuts burden shifting to the rich (citing IRS/Wall Street Journal).

Construction workers die all the time in a dangerous industry handling power tools up on heights.

5:34It's Father's Day. I put this tweet out the other day. In case you're interested in a little photographic kind of memory, talking about how I got here, this is my father, and he got married to my mother there. A couple people told me he looked like the Fonz from Happy Days. There he is. He doesn't look that much older now. He's got that Sicilian blood. He doesn't really age much. So there's pops right there. Love you, Dad. Happy Father's Day. And this is my grandfather. on my father's side, obviously his father. He was a real badass. Although I put this picture up on Twitter as my grandmother too.
6:08She was a real beauty. And that's me and my brother there in our old house when we were out in Long Island. You notice the pack of Marlboros? That was like ubiquitous. Don't smoke. It's bad for your lungs. Okay, we get it. But everybody smoked back then. Those were my mothers. She smoked Marlboro and she smoked Marlboro lights later. So everybody commented on the Marlboro pack on the Twitter post. And this is one of the biggest badasses in the history of humanity. this is my mother's father yes that is not ai he is that big he's about six four he was a monster he looked like an offensive lineman he was the best guy he was real badass he owned a bar they tried to rob him one time because he kept his money in his pocket in a rubber band because he didn't trust anybody and and what happened he told him to go after himself so they shot him you're like oh my gosh did he die no he lived he was a real badass that's uh gibby cram that was his nickname right there when he died they wrote a op-ed piece about him in the news day which was a new york paper jimmy breslin wrote it so that's the damn bonfino family so happy father's day home all right folks listen i know this story may sound dumb the algae wars okay the reflecting pool saga and it is dumb it's very dumb so why are we talking about it because folks the algae wars in the reflecting pool and how this magically has become the biggest story in the media.
7:27Donald Trump's repair and rejuvenation product, excuse me, work product he produced at the reflecting pool, how this has become an international story, despite everything going on with Iran, the strait, the economy and elsewhere, the border being sealed, all these good news stories is epidemic of how we got here. They reminded me over the weekend, looking through all the psychosis around people dumping algae in the pool, vandalizing the pool. It's insanity how this is the definition of like DSM diagnosable insanity. But I want you to remember how we got here and how we're in this era now where when you lose Compass True North, when nobody agrees on what's reasonable or real anymore, this is why I'm trying to prevent our movement from going there.
8:19As Yuri Bezmanov, the KGB defector said, ladies and gentlemen, the country collapses from the inside because you have this tower of Babel effect. Think about truth as a language, okay? The language of facts. When people can't agree on what facts are, the entire society and fabric of it, as you know, implodes and collapses on itself. I mean, think about it in very simple terms. If you're a carpenter and you're going to put a light up in a house, right? And you need a certain amount of clearance for this light. And nobody can agree on what an inch is or what a foot is. You're going to get the wrong measurement.
8:55Oh, you're using your foot? I used our foot instead. What do you mean there's only one foot? Facts are facts. What's happened with the left is because they've become so detached from reason and no compass true north, they've gone crazy into psychosis where I'm telling you, If President Trump cured the Hantavirus, there'd be a lobby out there pro-Hantavirus. They would be out there claiming like, I can't believe we're costing all these doctors money who treat people like Hantavirus. There's a story about that in Oakland, California. There's been fewer car break-ins due to a better law enforcement approach.
9:30Thanks, guys. KTVU. A decline in car break-ins across Oakland is being welcomed as a public safety win. That's because it is. But it's also contributing to a downturn for some local auto glass repair businesses.
9:48Folks, how did we get here? How did we get here where there's no compass true nor a tower of babble? Everybody speak in a different language. Reality has been distorted. Basic human good things like cleaning up the nasty algae infested reflecting pool have become a source of international media conspiracy theory stories. How did we get here? We got here two ways. Reason gets scrapped and thrown out of the window because of show your ass theory, where liberals, in order to prove to other liberals how much they hate Trump, have to constantly supersede the prior level of craziness to show your bona fides.
10:27You don't like Trump's border wall? That wasn't enough. Everyone says they don't like it. Now you got to go to another thing. Now you got to go to like a Trump conspiracy theory about like how crime is really a good thing and Trump should let it happen. Then you go to like the pro-algae stuff. You see how the show your ass theory, how liberals have to constantly say crazier things about Trump and take more and more untenable positions to prove to other liberals they hate Trump more than the next guy. That's how you get to this reality distortion field of gaslighting. Here's what I mean. Here's Stephen King this weekend.
10:58This reflecting pool thing is out of control. It's the craziest thing I've ever seen. There are actual people in freaking dinosaur costumes at the reflecting pool protesting for the return of algae to the reflecting pool. This is nuts. I've never seen anything like it. But it's an important story because it shows you that you have a choice in these midterm elections between people who don't care about ideas and only care about power. They will take psychotic positions to get rid of Trump and the obstacle to their takeover of the United States. And they don't care what you think. even when the facts are right in front of their face.
11:35Look at this nut Stephen King, of course, the fiction writer. This guy and I have had some epic fights over the years. This guy's a freaking lunatic. He loves my Twitter account, by the way. Here's Stephen King, infamous author. Nobody is vandalizing the reflecting pool and Trump knows it. There have been arrests. This is a visible example of his corruption. A no-bid contract to some crony followed by sky-high cost overruns and shoddy construction to boot. classic Trump I didn't F this up it was my enemies there have been arrests for vandalizing of the pool did you miss it Donald Trump even talked about it on his true social account how freaking crazy are we in of a time right now where you've got a political party that has made their staple issue going into a midterm election algae in the reflecting pool in DC this is the only thing they care about affordability gas prices all that stuff they claim they're running on bullshit the reflecting pool is the issue why listen to what brother dan just told you we have reached the point on the left we've reached it a long time ago but it's getting worse ideas don't matter anymore what's the idea reflecting pool clean or reflecting pool dirty it.
12:52They don't care. They don't care. That's not the idea. Donald Trump has become their singular focus of obsession. It is an obstacle, a big obstacle to their organized attempt to corrupt the United States and take back power. Whatever position they have to take, including pro-algae, they will take. You understand? I bet you guys didn't even know this, but Barack Obama put nearly twice as much money into a reflecting pool Lincoln Memorial cleanup operation, by the way, which is a good thing. I'm not mad at Obama for that at all. Matter of fact, so few people made a big deal out of it that I guarantee this is probably the first time you're hearing about it.
13:29It was only a big deal when Trump did it. Why? Because the it was an issue? No, the Trump was the issue. Here's the great Scott Jennings hat tip to his Twitter feed. Having it out on CNN with some idiot who didn't even know that Obama poured in almost twice the money into trying to clean this project up. Nobody knew this because it wasn't an issue because Obama did it, not Trump. And then Scott plays the actual news reports about how much it costs and how algae over there has been a constant problem, proving to you again, it's not about the freaking algae. It's about the Trump. Check this out.
14:05I think that the$14 million plus price tag that is associated with this cleanup project was ridiculous. Did you oppose President Obama spending$34 million on the Lincoln Memorial and the reflecting pool? I know that when President Obama invested, when he invested, he did it with science in mind. So there was not an algae takeover. For the record, you believe that algae didn't exist when Barack Obama was the president. Is that right? I believe that once he invested in the beautification of that specific part, what we did not see was a takeover because we just didn't see anything happen. For 1.6 billion years, algae has existed in stagnant pools on planet Earth, but not during the Obama administration.
14:47What I'm saying is that it was treated, which is what Donald Trump could have done. The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool reopened at the end of August to great fanfare after a$34 million renovation that lasted nearly two years. But less than a month later, the famous pool of water is full of algae. If it's sunny, if it's really warm, it will rise to the top. So on some days, depending on the weather, you will see algae. I learned something tonight. I didn't realize that President Obama had cured algae when for 1.6 billion years, algae had been undefeated. So I've learned something. For those of you listening on Apple or Spotify, that news report that's jump cutted and split into that is from 2012 when Obama was the president.
15:35They don't care about the algae. The algae, who cares about the algae? The answer is not the left either. It's not about the algae. It's about the Trump. Folks, this is how we get to a point, by the way, where we're in Tower of Babel America, where basic facts are meaningless. This is why I tell you all the time when you debate a leftist, forget the leftists, they're a lost cause. So why debate them? It's a waste of time. It is not. There are a lot of, matter of fact, an abundance of very reasonable, not hyper-partisan people who may be D's or R's, but are persuaded by good arguments and they're still listening.
16:15The liberal is a lost cause. It doesn't matter if you tell them Obama spent twice as much money and has been fighting the same problem. So you should be pissed off at Obama, not Trump, for trying to fix a problem Obama handed off to them and still has a fix. They don't care. It's about Trump. They have distorted reality so much that the left has bedrocked their party in Tower of Babel politics where everybody's screaming at each other. And it's a way to get them to avoid using reason and just focus on the emotions. Here's another one I saw this weekend about this reality distortion field we're living in right now.
16:55It's not the craziest political time we've ever lived in, like check out the 1860s. However, we're getting to like serious, serious political dystopia with this lunatic party. Hat tip and wokeness. This was the New York Times. This is a piece they ran. To my daughter, my gender was never complicated. You run this on Father's Day? No, your gender is not complicated. You're either a man or a woman. You don't pick your freaking gender. How is this hard? This is a basic tenant of reality. But yet when you believe that the critical theory tenets and absurdity, look at this nonsense. How long did you have breast for that?
17:38What is going on here? What is going on? Why do they do this? Why do they pretend algae just appeared under Donald Trump that men can be women and women can't be men? Here, let me jump open book test. Jump cut to the end. They cannot. that is not going to happen. You can say you're whatever. You want to go by Sunflower or whatever, Mayflower, or I don't care what you want to call yourself, Joey Bag of Donuts, whatever. I'll use the name you want to. I'm not going to tell you you're a woman when you're a man or vice versa. It's just not going to happen. We're not doing it anymore, as the great Haley Karanias said in her video.
18:19No, you can do it. We're just not doing it. Folks, without going into a history lesson, though, of why the left engages in this reality distortion field and refuses to engage in Compass True North politics. And you're seeing it, people on our side doing the same thing too. Facts aren't facts anymore. When you get called out on something you said that is factually wrong, you just ignore it and move on and people still believe you. You saw it with my coverage of some of these spats the last few weeks. I can produce to you actual data. The data refutes the premise. That doesn't matter. They move on.
18:56that's liberal politics at its worst they believe in this critical theory garbage that's later offshoot was critical race theory and it goes like this the white male patriarchy white males like i celebrate the patriarchy we love the patriarchy thank you patriarchs the white male patriarchy is basically the source of all power now power is their goal power is their goal and that all the knowledge passed down from the white male patriarchy is just a construct of said power and you can't trust anything so when you read articles like that i'm you know you didn't tell me about your gender whatever that crazy new york times shit is or you start talking about people and talking about algae like it just appeared yesterday in the reflecting pool the reason they do that is because of the second part of one of the tenets of critical theory the way to get you to distrust everything and destroy the country from the inside.
19:53It's to say that knowledge is a construct of power. Power is organized and centralized at the white male patriarchy, and they're basically lying to you. That's how you get articles in these ridiculous left-wing newspapers that go, it's two plus two really equal four. That is the genesis. Doubt me at your own expense. Look it up. You can look up critical theory yourself. You'll see they pump this stuff down your throats at all times. That is why you see articles like this too in the Toronto Star. We should abolish Father's Day. Now it's said with kind of a joking nonsense kind of thing. Ladies and gentlemen, it is not a joke.
20:30These people are serious. Everything that you have done as patriarchs out there, everything men, great men have done throughout history, if you're white, trust nothing. That's the way we get Tower of Babel politics. The Tower of Babel collapses and the left gets to reorganize society from the ground up, unsurprisingly, with all of them in power, the Bernie Sanders type people. Doubt me at your own expense. I'm telling you, these people are freaking crazy. And it is why you get suckers, suckers, suckers, to fall for this socialist bullshit every time. There has not been a more perverse ideology in human history that has caused more death and destruction, that has a 100 % success rate.
21:16Socialism, yeah, it does, success rate. Oh, failure. It's failed every time. It succeeds at failing like nothing else. And yet suckers and dipshits and losers keep falling for it. There's an election in New York tomorrow. I'm gonna get to in a second and take a quick break. There's an election in New York tomorrow. And there's a Mamdami candidate running for Congress who is a bigger socialist, shockingly, than Mamdami. That's hard to believe. the same bullshit you've heard government organization of the economy everything's free air quotes nothing free you're just going to pay for it lies about oppressed people around the world i'm going to show you what i mean coming up in a second and suckers are falling for this this socialist phenomenon is spreading because stupid people have no compass true north and the tower of babel's already fallen i'll show you what i mean coming up in a second and i'll immediately, immediately discredit this idiot.
22:15Daria, Lisa, Chevalier, whatever, said something about wiping her hands on the American flag. Yeah, the American flag. The one patriots from the Revolutionary War to the Civil War, to World War I, to World War II, to Iraq and Afghanistan died for. So you could sit there with your stupid bullshit, shit-eating grin on your face, talking about wiping your hands on the flag? Asshole. Yeah, yeah, you. That's right. We call it like it is here.
22:51Stay tuned for that. This clip is, this is my least favorite clip of the day, but you need to see it because this is how suckers keep falling for this. Hey guys, you know my health history.

25:29Sundaes starts with over 80 % all-natural meats, plus superfoods like kale, ginger, and blueberries. No fillers, no weird chemical blends, just real nutrition. And instead of high heat processing, it's gently air-dried so it looks and smells like real food, almost like jerky. It's also ridiculously easy. No fridge, no prep, just scoop and serve. Again, Lucy thinks it's like a treat. And they just launched a new fish recipe made with 80 % real fish packed with omega-3s and perfect for picky dog eaters. Lucy loves it. I've noticed more energy, a healthier coat. Make the switch to Sundays for Dogs right now.

26:36Tell everybody the white male patriarchy is the source of knowledge that two plus two equals 72. And suckers fall for this stuff. I'm sorry to tell you in the listening audience. I'm very sorry. I love you guys. I don't want to be an asshole. I'm just telling you, if you're like a liberal, young, old, medium, it doesn't really matter my age, kind of middle age plus, right? And you're still falling for Momdani, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and this Daria Lisa, whoever. you're an idiot you can just look this stuff up yourself okay it socialism doesn't work because it doesn't work why doesn't it work because people don't want to work and give up their stuff to other people who didn't work to acquire the stuff that was a product of their labor it's not hard here she is at a debate unbelievably comparing gaza to new york city just listen to this insanity and ask yourself how suckers keep falling for the stupid.
27:29Check this out. I was in Nablus for almost two months, and I visited many cities in the region, both in the West Bank and in Israel. And what I found in my time there was a system of apartheid. And I saw so many connections between what was happening to Palestinians there in Palestine and what was happening to so many communities across the U.S., particularly black and Latino communities, who have been priced out and pushed out of our homes. When we talk about displacement in the West Bank or in Gaza, it is a very similar, visually similar situation, where people who have been in a place for generations are being displaced because of corporate interests.
28:13Holy Moses, Gaza comparing it to New York City. By the way, you can just look this up. suckers, idiots, and losers out there who are falling for this moron who thinks the American flag is a napkin. You can just, can you just go to like GPT or whatever, AI, Gaza? You mean the Gaza the Israelis gave back to the Palestinians? You can actually look this up. Who's on this, Jess? Did Israel return Gaza to the Palestinians? What does it say? Searching the web. Yes, in 2005 under the Gaza disengagement plan led by Ariel Sharon. Folks, have whatever opinion you want about the Middle East. Okay, it's a free country.
29:01You have the right to assemble, petition, speak, practice your religion, bear arms. You have all of that great stuff. But with that right comes a certain responsibility. If you're going to go out in a public debate and make a stupid argument that Gaza is like New York City, who's in charge of Gaza? the freaking Palestinians because the Israelis gave it back. She's making the opposite. And suckers are like, yeah, man. She really nailed that. Poor Palestinians. Dumbass. Stupid. What's funny about that? Was that the first time I said Justin Laughlin? It was like the first time. Dumbass. You're just stupid.

29:41Stop being stupid. You ever see that Paris Hilton meme? Don't be poor. Stop being, just don't be stupid. It's not hard to not be stupid. Folks, you can look this stuff up, okay? You want to see liberal psychosis in action too? This is, he predicted it too. He's like, this is going to be your favorite story of the day. It is. here's california where like dystopian political show your ass non-compass true north tower of babble politics is in effect here's what i mean by when the tower collapses because there's no basis like no one talks about facts anymore and suckers fall for bullshit all the time this is what happens there's this article i'm not going to go through the whole thing but you i strongly encourage you to read it if you're bored need a few minutes check it out it's in the wall street Journal.
30:34It's about California is engaged in the civil war over the wealth tax. You make civil war like wealth tax doesn't make sense. A liberal state, they should love a wealth tax. A wealth tax is simply a tax on unrealized gains and wealth, which is ridiculous. It never works. Every time they've tried it, unrealized gains means taxing stock ownership and other things that you haven't sold. The problem is the stock could go down tomorrow and you could actually lose money. So how the hell on money you'd already been taxed on, should you pay taxes again on a stock you haven't even sold and you could lose money on?
31:06The answer is you're not. People are going to leave the state. This story is hilarious for all the wrong reasons. What's the civil war over? The SEIU, one of these unions, wants this wealth tax to fund a lot of the government spending and nonsense that goes on in California. Newsom knows people are going to, the horrible governor, knows people are going to flee the state if the wealth tax is enacted. so he's like quietly like for and against it at the same time he's like against it but behind the scenes he like fosters the class warfare that leads to it that's what i mean so newsom's fighting with the seiu the seiu is fighting with the california teachers association another left-wing union they don't like the wealth tax either why not i thought they love taxes because it bypasses the California referendum that 40 % of the tax load has to go to teachers and education so they don't like the wealth tax because they don't get the money.
32:05This is Tower of Babel politics. Fighting for the scraps from Longshank's table to quote Braveheart. Nobody wants to actually go out and earn their own money. They're just concerned about if they're going to steal money from successful people in California, who gets to divvy up the spoils first? You got to read the article. It is hilarious. And then there's another local union that doesn't like the wealth tax because they're afraid that their own referendum on a different tax may get overshadowed by the wealth tax. You know, you could go out there here. People who are fighting liberals. You see this thing called your ass.
32:41You could get your ass up and remove it from the seat and you could actually go work and make your own money and stop focusing on stealing everyone else's. You just don't want to because you're suckers and you're lazy and you'll fall for any stupid argument about socialism that someone jams down your throat because you just don't want to do the homework. You got Grok. You got GPT. You got Google Gemini. You got a thousand artificial intelligence agents out there and labs you could just ask questions about. And you won't. People believe liberals stupid shit all the time. They believe Bill Clinton produced a surplus.
33:19How the hell did Bill Clinton produce a surplus? It's not true. The government debt, national debt, went up every year. If he produced a surplus, the national debt would have went down. There was an entitlement surplus, which the government stole and then spent. There was no surplus. The Reagan tax cuts. People will tell you liberals, I'm sure Daria Lisa thinks this too, because she still doesn't know what happened in Gaza, moron. She'll tell you, oh, those Reagan tax cuts were a mess. They only benefited the rich. There's a full breakdown in the Wall Street Journal this weekend about exactly this.
33:52You can read the data yourself, imbeciles on the left. I know you don't want to because knowledge is actual power and you don't want power. You want power in your pocket, not power through knowledge. You want power through force. There's a difference. The surprising truth about Reagan's tax cuts by Phil Graham and Michael Salon. They notice at the end that you've probably heard this before That the Reagan tax cuts were tax cuts for the wealthy They note that this is pretty much a consensus in liberal stupidity I do that on at the end Well, what do the numbers say? I'm going to help you guys out out there Not that it's going to matter to the liberals listening However, to the third party that's heard this in the past That the Reagan tax cuts somehow benefited the rich I'd like to give you the data Move on to the next from this piece of view with it.
34:42Look at this. So the Reagan tax cuts dropped the top tax rate to 28%. And data from the IRS noted that before the tax cuts took effect, that the rich, the top fifth of income earners, paid 64 % of all federal income taxed. The bottom three-fifths paid 15%. You got it? 64 % before Reagan cuts the taxes for people who are successful. And the bottom three-fifths paid 15%. So what happened afterwards? If they were tax cuts for the rich, then most assuredly, the percentage of taxes paid by the rich went down, right? If you believe stupidity and Daria Lisa Chavalier and others, well, that's not what happened, folks.
35:23These are facts. Facts. Get ready. Facts bomb coming in. I know this is going to hurt liberals. Cry and piss in your diapers all you want. They know in the piece that the share of the individual tax burden had increased for the rich to 67%. I thought it was 64 before. That means they paid more. Yes! And dropped to 19th for the next fifth and 14 % for the bottom 60%. So when the tax rates went down, the economy exploded and the rich wound up actually paying more, so much so that by the time Reagan left office, years later, the rich were paying from 64 went all the way up to 71%, And the bottom three-fifths all the way went down to 12 % from 16.
36:12Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry you've been lied to over and over and over again. Over again. Incredibly, they know by 2022, the richest folks paid 88 % of income taxes. And the middle fifth down 4%. Folks, think what you want, okay? You're allowed to. You have the big R, God-given right to petition for algae, show up with your pro-algae dinosaur Barney costumes down there. We love algae. Media people, you can run stories all day about algae. This is how you get Tower of Babel stupid, where your liberal neighbor will swear to you over and over that Reagan's tax cuts, and there was a Clinton surplus, which isn't true, that Reagan's tax cuts were for the rich, even though the opposite happened.
36:56This is how we get to collective crazy. You want to cover the biggest story of the month so far? the rape squads in the UK? Nah. Now let's dedicate 24-hour wall-to-wall coverage of freaking algae in the swimming pool. Now do you see why we're reflecting on the reflecting pool today? This is intentional insanity. Look at this Washington Post story. This is insane. I've never seen a paper or this liberal media deface themselves more about a story than this nonsense. They still haven't gone out they watched him post yeah the blue paint is peeling off the reflecting this is insane i've never seen so much they still haven't corrected the freaking russia collusion fairy tale peepee hoax and yet they're on his planet of memes had it had it best planet cnn's permanent floating news station on the reflecting pool they're joking of course but put this ai picture out there here is cnn reflecting barge on the pool full-time coverage you see this stuff is crazy You have people out there in freaking Barney costumes, the dinosaur guy, with pro-algae, harassing the National Guard.
38:10No, we don't. Yes, here it is. Hat tip, freedomnews.tv. This is real. This is not AI.
38:28Can you imagine this shit? You look at these poor guys. these wonderful, glorious public servants out there, you know, policing up the city against vandals, and you got this idiot in a freaking Barney the Stupid Dinosaur costume protesting team out. I bet the Barney people are probably pissed. Folks, listen to me, man. This is important. Their only currency on the left is power. If you're under the illusion that they care about ideas, tax cuts, Clinton surplus, algae in the reflecting pool, you are nuts. They are about power and obstacles to power. They don't care about knowledge. They will discredit basic human knowledge to achieve power, tell you 3 plus 3 equals 42.
39:21They don't care. This is not about ideas. I'm going to prove it to you right now because we still have people out there, persuadable Democrats who may be that third party listening, who may listen to the show and go, you know what? Dan's right. This is kind of effing crazy. Here's what I'm talking about. So Obama spent$34 million on the reflecting pool in the Lincoln Memorial, twice as much as Donald Trump. They had a similar problem because it's hot. They're still working on it. They'll figure it out. It's probably not going to be fixed overnight. But at least you got a president who gives a damn.
39:55Nobody cares about that. Here's Obama. I have been warning about this. Justin, you remember how often I used to talk about this? Folks, the Democrats do – get ready. I want you to get ready. Don't clip this wrong because, you know, I love clipping my show. People do that. But you got to clip this in the right spot of the context. Let me just say it if it will be thrown out. Democrats do not hate Republicans. They hate obstacles. Time out. Yeah, Dan, they do. No, they don't. Liz Cheney. The Democrats hated the Cheney family. Hate a warmonger, Halliburton, child of warmonger. And then Liz Cheney, who stopped being an obstacle to their power in the Cheney family and helped them out on the January 6th debacle hearing.
40:53All of a sudden, they loved her. They were her biggest fan. You remember that, right? I could give you a thousand examples of this. John Bolton's another one. They hated John Bolton. All of a sudden, John Bolton is, you know, please go. Oh, this is all targeting. And all of a sudden, they love him. It's almost like it's not about them being a Republican. It's about them being an obstacle. That the ideas never mattered. The Republican ideas these people, Cheney and Boat, claim they stood for. It's almost like the fact that they were an obstacle to their power is all that mattered. Did you see the speech Obama gave at the garbage?
41:32I mean, Obama library opening. They call it like the garbage can. Have you seen this debacle? This architectural abomination looks like it's out of the Soviet Union. I've been talking about this for years, how in order to get rid of the current Republican office holder in the White House, whoever it was, Reagan, H.W. Bush, George W. Bush or Donald Trump, people they had shit on before, Romney, Bush and others, they will say, well, this guy, Trump, is 10 times worse. Those other guys really weren't too bad. But they said the same thing about the last guy when the last guy, well, Bush is really horrible, but Reagan wasn't too bad.
42:14They do this all the time. It's not about the guy. Here's Obama doing it. Nobody crapped on Mitt Romney and John McCain more than Obama. Nobody. Now, all of a sudden, when they're no longer obstacles, but Trump is, they do the exact thing I warned you about. I promise one day, mark my words, they'll do it with Trump, too. No. Yes, it is not about it's about obstacles. Watch. Listen to yourself. American values we can all share, regardless of party values. Every president here today, as different as we are, has tried our best to uphold values that John McCain and Mitt Romney believed in no less than I did.
42:58It is our greatest inheritance, the story of America at its best, because it reflects a basic faith in the decency of our fellow citizens. Folks, I don't even like Mitt Romney. It's not personal. but they accuse Mitt Romney of like killing his dog on the roof of being a serial misogynist with binders full of women when it was binders full of resumes. McCain, they accuse him being a warmonger. They took pictures of him and put him on the front page magazines with like bad uplighting to make him look like Satan the devil. They don't hate Republicans. They hate obstacles tag it flag it remember i said this there is no think of a republican they really viscerally can't stand outside of donald trump just throw a name out there if i don't want to throw a name because i don't want to but but if that public if that republican were to turn tomorrow and say anything anti-trump i promise flags in the chat i promise you these guys will become superheroes in the eyes of the left.
44:13Proving my point, the Democrats don't hate Republicans, they hate obstacles. It is only about the acquisition of power. Facts be damned, people be damned, character assassination, throw it out there. Morals be damned, ethics be damned. They don't care and they will flip their position on a dime. Here, more receipts incoming. Hat tip Mays more. Here is Obama in a debate. I'm only bringing this up because he just opened the garbage can, right? And he's out there inserting himself into the political argument again, pretending this is about ideas. So let's make it about ideas. Let's make it about Obama's ideas.
44:50And I'm using air quotes because the ideas change depend on when he's talking or who he's trying to get out of power. Here's Obama running against Hillary in a debate talking about how George W. Bush was basically not hard enough on immigration. No, you mean hard. He was not hard. George W. Bush should have been tougher on immigration. This is Obama saying this. I thought it was about ideas. But then I got Michelle Obama just the other day at the garbage can opening saying something completely different. Almost like it was never about the idea at all. Play Obama first from Hat Tip Mays Moore with the debate with Hillary.
45:27Check this out. The Bush administration has done nothing to control the problem that we have. We've had 5 million undocumented workers come over the borders since George Bush took office. It has become an extraordinary problem. And the reason the American people are concerned is because they are seeing their own economic position slip away. And oftentimes, employers are exploiting these undocumented workers. They're not paying the minimum wage. They're not observing worker safety laws. As president, I will make sure that we finally have the kind of border security that we need. That's step number one.
46:04Step number two is to take on employers. Right now, an employer has more of a chance of getting hit by lightning than be prosecuted for hiring an undocumented worker. That has to change. They have to be held accountable. Start shedding some light on the problem, and we can once again be a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants. That's what I intend to do as president of the United States. What the hell is that? He sounds like Trump. I thought it was about ideas. Daria, Lisa, Mamdami, Sanders, what about ideas, Newsom? No, we're just debating ideas. Then what idea are you debating? Because you just said you like border security.
46:44Donald Trump has secured the border for the first time in decades where there's zero illegal migrants admitted into the country. You should be celebrating his success. If it's an if, it's about the idea. But it's not about the idea. It's about power. And Donald Trump is an obstacle to power. So now you have to take the attention off the idea of immigration and make it about the person. But Dan, Maze Moore and others, they go out and they just accumulate these clips and play them. You would think the left would be like, OK, that's kind of hypocritical. They don't care. The Tower of Babel's imploded.
47:22This is what happens with the reality distortion lens. When you lie to people so often and so confidently, they don't know what's true anymore. Here's Michelle Obama just this past week at the garbage can opening criticizing Trump about his immigration policy that her own husband basically ran for office on. You just saw the receipts. Check this out. Proving what it truly means to be a dreamer. These folks. These folks aren't Americans, too. They are America. They are the beating heart of this country. They are us and we are them. And to ignore the simple truth, to refuse to respect the contributions and experiences of people who aren't exactly like us.
48:13Y 'all put puts us all at risk. I thought it was about ideas. Lefties watching the show. I know this bothers you. I know I see the face clawing the crying the gnashing of the teeth the territorial pissings in the diapers I get it I get it bothers you that your golden calves are all fake that they don't have faith or a religion of ideas it's a religion of power they'll change their idea their commentary, their criticism like that to get past an obstacle that is it I don't know how any other This has been just the most packed receipt show we've done in a few weeks right now. Almost everything they tell you on the left is a lie.
49:01The question you should be asking yourself is, why do you fall for it? Why? These people are bullshitting you. Hey, have you seen these? I got a little timeline cleanse for you. We've had way too much Barack Obama and algae wars people going on. The dinosaur people protesting. Team Algae, number one foamy finger. We love algae. I got a timeline cleanse for you.

I also got a stat that I saw on Twitter that it should be the only evidence you need that the last year of what we did with the administration cleaning up the streets, how dangerous but easy it is to do if you're not crazy. Quick break. We'll get right back to the show. Let's go, Ogden. Let's go. Justin's doing the clap. There's going to be Team Ebola and Hanta soon. I'm telling you. If Trump cures HIV, there'll be Team HIV. I promise you. Don't doubt me. Don't doubt me. The Tower of Babel's collapsed. These people are seriously nuts. Just pay attention to that third party.

Hat tip, Nathan Ranklin from Australia. Sir, welcome. We love visitors in this country. You come here and celebrate this place. Do it the right way. We love to have you. Welcome, fine sir. The only dispute I would say, which is minor, as Justin accurately said, we need to get you into a New York deli for some bread.
57:23I celebrate American business. Good for Subway. but well maybe a pub sub too if you're down in florida what's that line justin if you know you know folks in the chat who knows what i'm talking about the pub sub if you know you know justin knows i'll give you like a cannon in publics it's not even like it looks like a cannon.

The thing's so heavy, you have to like scoop the thing legway. Throw it over your shoulder sideways because the pub sub is so damn big.
58:08You know, who said it? We got a bunch of people in the chat there. They know about the pub sub. Love the pub. Who said that? F. Barrett 50. You're damn right, amigo. Pub sub. Someone who knows Nathan, get him a pub sub and the bread. And I'm from New York and I'm telling you that. This is a Jasmine special. Jasmine insisted we put this in the show.

59:24This is lovely. Tell the chef, I don't do a good UK accent. I barely do a good New York accent anymore, and I'm freaking from New York. This is lovely. Mommy, you are welcome here, younglings. Welcome. Enjoy the brownies. This is the greatest place on earth. I wasn't going to do this. I don't know why Justin wants to do this. He may have done something I'm not aware of. I did a Maha moment but I wasn't going to get to it but he pops out to me he's like while we're on the topic of food I'm like okay so save Portland liberal guy for tomorrow I like that clip you're going to see this guy walking around Portland like figures out liberalism so you know I love my Maha moments so I saw this one and it was about while we're on the topic of food we have a lot of beans in America too and beans are great however Kevin Bacon wants to do like meat free Wednesdays or something Ladies and gentlemen.
1:00:18No, no, definitely not beans. That's gross. Beans are good. They're good for you. However, meat. I'm about, you know, steak and meat. I'm a meat eater. I like meat. Eat the meats. It's good for you. Here's Kevin Bacon. He wants to go like meatless Wednesdays. I don't know why Justin wants to see this clip so bad. Check this out.
1:00:40You know me as Kevin Bacon. But on Wednesdays, I'm Kevin Bean. because Wednesday is Beans Day, the day we swap meat for beans. They're packed with protein and fiber. They keep you full longer. You save money and animals. They're just beans till you realize how many animals they spare. Observing Beans Day is a small step. It makes a big difference. Take it from me, Kevin Bean. I love animals. Animals are awesome. You should treat animals very well and nice and cute, whatever. But when it comes time to eat, they got to go. We love animals. They're great. Treat them humanely. God will not look kindly on you if you mistreat animals.
1:01:31But there's no single better source of nutrition on planet Earth than animals. God gave us the animals to eat because the animals eat each other. we're animals touched by the hand of god with human consciousness and the gifts he's given us however you got to eat the animals when it's time it's time by the way beans are not a complete protein and they're never going to match up to me it just doesn't work it's not going to be a thing here go to a crock or gpt whatever i'll give you a little uh maha lesson here beans are not a complete protein now you can mix them with other things but it will never be as effective as meat You've got these essential amino acids that you are never going to get from only eating beans.
1:02:16Oh, there's Justin. Are beans a complete protein? Is that Grock a complete protein? Thinking about your request. I love these little AI things because you can do your own. No, most beans are not a complete protein. They don't have a complete protein. It has all nine essential amino acids, which meat and milk and dairy products do. Kev, I'm not beefing with you. You want to eat beans on Wednesday? do your thing, whatever. I don't know why this guy wanted this segment. He's like, are you like a bean lover all of a sudden? So all of a sudden, Justin was like, he's popping out. We got to do this segment on the bees.
1:02:49Eat the beans all you want. Eat the beans all you want. But just understand, like it's not a complete protein. You got to eat the animals. Listen, love animals, treat them humanely. But when it's time, what does that mean, Justin? That means if it's the animals or us, they got to go. you can eat the animals. It's okay. God's not mad at you. He set up this system for a reason this way. He made animals a complete protein. Go to Texas Roadhouse. Enjoy yourself a good steak. I'm glad a lot of people love Texas Roadhouse in the chat, too. There were a bunch of people making fun of Texas Roadhouse. I couldn't believe it.
1:03:26That's a good place, man. You had a damn good steak. Don't we have one here down Route 1 somewhere? Down like by the Barnes & Noble or something like that? I've been in there a couple times. I don't get out too much anymore. I'm always doing the show or something like that. folks over the last year i put out a tweet this weekend just kind of reminding people of the trump administration's focus on at this 250th america you know all these europeans are celebrating america we love having you here but one thing about america you probably heard that's total bullshit is like america's the most dangerous country on earth and all this shit america is not even close to the most dangerous place on earth we have pockets of violence in this country but very very few people commit the overwhelming number of violent acts this is important because law enforcement pros i have friends with i'm friends with a lot of them police chiefs retired guys some of them are on tv now doing law enforcement commentary they'll ask me they say you know what did you and oh thank you i didn't mean so this is what we did over the last year like the numbers are just staggering with the trump administration how we just completely caved violent crime and again i'd love to tell you it was some you know revolutionary genius approach But it is.
1:04:34And I got the idea from Rudy Giuliani of implementing broken window style policing using the FBI. Why? Because, folks, America is an overwhelmingly great, safe and peaceful place. There is a small sliver of people. Read this tweet. This is Arthur McWatters on Twitter. Read this tweet and you will see exactly what I told you. When you focus like a laser law enforcement resources on the 1 % of people who account for 63 % of violent crimes, folks, the violent crime rates drop just like we did last year with the Trump administration. 0.2 % of people ever commit murder. 67 % of all murders are committed by people with prior arrests.
1:05:16Guy notes, you can literally just fix crime by not tolerating people who show a history of being destructive to society. Folks, I'm telling you, man, I would love to come in here and be like, oh, my gosh, this was this advanced police science approach and we invented this whole thing. We didn't. You would be stunned to know that the FBI before under Ray and Comey just got really out of the violent crime business. Talk to them, media people. Call anyone off the record there who was in a leadership position. And they'll tell you the footprint violent crime was so small. we're like why is that i mean we have to do other things and we will but the most dangerous problem you have walking out of your house is getting shot we refocused it went and locked these people up and look what happened the murder rate the lowest in american history the drop was one of largest ever recorded too because the trump administration said enough so the europeans coming over here who've heard like america's like a kill zone you've been lied to again by bullshitters who make it a kill zone.
1:06:22People like liberals, like these Momdami and Defund the Police losers and Daria Lisa, whatever her name is. Those are the people who make it a kill zone in areas they run. The place is overwhelmingly peaceful and safe. Don't believe the hype and the bullshit. All right, folks, thanks again for tuning in. I really appreciate it. You guys are awesome.
