The S*** Is About To Hit The Fan | Episode 99

20:20Dan Bongino:So let me just point an obvious policy thing that's really stupid, I mean, among the many. state-owned grocery stores. So his thing is like, you're being price gouged by all the grocery stores. Now, first of all, he's beginning with a lie because as we know from like the Biden era lies on this subject, the margins for grocery stores are non-existent. It's like 2%. It's like 2%. I mean, just think about how much food they have to throw out that doesn't get sold. That costs a lot of money. Grocery stores are not making immense sums of money here. 2%. Okay. Okay, so if you make it state-owned and make the prices even cheaper, you're going to price out all of the mom and pops, all of the grocery stores that are sustaining small businesses and these families that are running them.

21:09Dan Bongino:Right. And then the shelves are going to be bare. You're not going to have food on your shelves to sell. So the outcome you're talking about, Jim, kind of the Soviet outcome, the breadline outcome, is what Mamdani's promising New York. It's crazy. Right, because who's going to want to put their products in those stores if they're not going to be able to make any money off it? It's not only the grocery store itself, but it's the people who make the products that are going to be sold in the store. And if you're not selling it at a price that it can be profitable, it's like, well, I'm not going to put it in the state-run store.

21:40I'm going to go to whatever other grocery store I can. And then what happens, too, is you're going to have private grocery stores where the costs are going to be way inflated. so it comes to that whole income inequality thing again this government always causes income inequality free markets don't free markets rise all rise all boats and government interference always every single time makes things less efficient and cost more okay i want to talk to

22:13Dan Bongino:you about um hey fellas i i will i will i want to tell people about our sponsor i think my teleprompter broke somewhere in there but so at some point i'll be able to do that But let me ask you about another crazy Democrat. How about, let's move from Mamdani to Jasmine Crockett. This is, Jim, you've lived in all these places. So we went from New York, now you live in Texas. She unfortunately is too close to my district. Is she pretty close by, Texas Congresswoman? She's in Dallas, yeah. Okay, yeah. So Jasmine Crockett is one of the elected representatives, unfortunately, from your state. We've got a new piece on her.

22:44Dan Bongino:Haley, prepare yourself. This isn't going to shock you. Jasmine Crockett is a boss from hell. okay her staff hates her interesting this is interesting so steven nelson at the new york post has this great piece today representative jasmine crockett has positioned herself as an unfiltered critic of the president of course but congressional aides tell the post that the dallas democrat is just as rude and mean to her own staff you tell me if this tracks when she's not on TV, which is all the time. She's terrorizing her staff. Crockett is not often found at her government-provided suite in the Longworth House office building.

23:22Dan Bongino:One insider says she prefers to work from her nearby luxury apartment building. You know what that means. She's not working. Right. She's just laying up. She's, quote, she's laying around her apartment, won't come into the office, and is really just indifferent to staff, and will scream at them, the former aide said. She's never in the office. She's very disengaged. She does her bullshit that goes viral and then freaks out over the most random things uh of course she needs to be um they need to ferry her to and from the short distance from the capital they have a chauffeured car to take her back and forth you know and when she's you know just laying about all day she's got to show up to appear on television and then tell say that trump is racist and then she'll throw a stapler at her staff and then she'll head back to her apartment um hailey have you ever experienced a work environment like this?

24:08I haven't, not personally, but interestingly enough, I saw online a video and this woman said, I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I've never had a good female boss. I would take a male boss 10 times out of 10. And the comments were in agreement, 100 % in agreement. No one could say, yes, I had an effective female boss who was looking out for me, not in competition with me. So a lot of these millennial women that you would think have this feminist mindset, they're realizing they come into the workforce now, maybe Gen Z coming into the workforce now, and they're realizing women aren't effective leaders.

24:52They're good at other things. Maybe they're organized. Maybe they're good at time management. But I don't think the corporate world is meant for them and they're not good at being bosses.

25:01Dan Bongino:I'm sorry, these were Jim's lines. You were supposed to deliver those. Haley, you're reading the wrong strip. If I would have said that, forget about it. Oh, this is why I'm the token female on the panel. I can say this. No, it's great. It's great. But do you feel that way? Do you agree with that? I have had good and bad. Yeah. But I do think that I would rather have a male boss because I think they're good leaders. And I do think that when you have females in the workplace, there is a competitive nature where women aren't really looking out for women. They say all the time, women supporting women.

25:33Not the truth.

25:34Dan Bongino:There are fundamental differences, of course, between men and women and the way they act in a workforce. I mean, one of the great things about women is that they're pretty dependable, actually. Women are dependable and will do the routine very well and very efficiently. Whereas men, they can be creative and they can be very good leaders, but they can also be time wasters. They will just like burn clock. And so there's no question that it's actually interesting. saying it's like there's something that both sides really bring to the workforce for sure. Well, the thing is, people don't want to talk about it, but there are distinct differences between men and women in the way their brains are wired to do different things.

26:16And I'm sorry to say it, but it's the truth. Men think logically, women think more emotionally. And that's a fact. And I think it goes to your point, Hayley, as to that's why women bosses have a more difficult time with their employees because their emotional side of their brain. And I know I'm going to get it. No, go ahead. Say it. You're not going to offend me. The emotional side of their brain is in a battle with the logical do right side. Yes. Side. And it kind of gets in the way of them being able to act correctly as a boss.

26:55Dan Bongino:The effect of that broadly is that probably all of us, we have a kind of a built in prejudice to think, well, she's probably assessing this emotionally and not logically. So she's running uphill against her own biology and our sort of our general thought process about it. Right. Yeah. I think you're on to something. And then you'll get you're only saying that because I'm a woman. It's like, no, I mean, well, maybe. Yeah. It's possible. It's possible. Yeah. It sounds like you have a guilty conscience, lady. Right. All right. Hey, you already know the name Blackout Coffee, proudly the official coffee of everybody here at Silverlock, and there's a great reason for that.

27:29Dan Bongino:There really is. It's because Blackout is phenomenal. Which camera is on? Am I looking at this one? Okay, good. Just making sure. Hello, camera. This Blackout Coffee is the way I start my day every day, and you know what the great thing about being here in Florida at the Silverlock Studios? is they have an espresso machine loaded up with blackout coffee beans. This is at a level that I don't even usually get. And it grinds them up, and then it makes this beautiful cup of coffee. A little bit of that, what do they call that, crema? A little crema foam at the top. It's just natural foam from the espresso.

I love hanging out with you guys. All of our various video monitors have completely gone out. I think I've got video clips and stuff.

29:14Dan Bongino:Justin's laughing crying right now in the booth. We're in the dark over here. It's a disaster in here. But it's great. It's a wonderful disaster. He's like Nero fiddling while Rome burns. He's like, they'll be fine. They don't need anything. Meanwhile, I can't see you, Chad. So whatever you want to say about Jim, now's your chance.

29:37Dan Bongino:The things that we're hitting today. Let's talk about somebody we all know. uh dan bongino you familiar with him yes okay good who i've met him sorry uh bongino i don't know where he is right now according to the people who hate him he's probably like on epstein's island or something right now flying around in his private jet yes yeah that's all he does yeah he's just abusing you know taxpayer resources in fact he takes off in the private jet he never lands anywhere he just keeps circling the country flying seeing how much gas he can burn um no here's the update actually in the last 24 hours we get news that three senior FBI officials have just been canned by the Kash Patel and Dan Bongino led FBI and they include Brian Driscoll who had briefly served as the acting director at the beginning of President Trump's second term Walter Giardina who worked on investigations related to Trump and his advisor Peter Navarro that Giardina was going after both of them and then Washington field office acting director Steve Jensen is also being dismissed.

30:40Dan Bongino:Today's his last day in that role. And one thing that, you know, I've kind of seen is like, Jim, I know you've been tracking this is like, oh, yeah. Oh, oh, well, they're finally firing some people. That's finally happening. It's not finally happening, is it, Jim? No, it's not finally happening. It's been happening. It's you've been updated on X by both Dan and Cash to exactly everything that's been going on. But Vince, this isn't going to matter. Even with Jensen gone, Jensen was the big, you know, target that they wanted. He's, oh, he fought against the J6ers and this and that, and they're promoting him.

31:22No, they didn't promote him. Dan actually told you exactly what was going on with Jensen. And he said it in an interview on TV. And not only that. Yeah. Now he's gone. It's not going to be enough. Okay.

31:37Dan Bongino:It'll never be enough. Let me show people what you're talking about. It was just a couple months ago. Dan went on television. He said something that was quite obviously like, here, remember this? When the news transpires, you'll understand more. It was one of those moments. And, of course, it was like everyone was like, yeah, whatever. And they just like ran on. I'm like, no, it's not whatever. That's just a direct. The deputy director of the FBI said this is an important thing to watch. Again, this guy, Steve Jensen, was made the head of the Washington field office. A lot of people pointed out, well, wasn't he involved in persecuting January 6th people?

32:10Dan Bongino:Well, yeah, take a look at what Dan had to say at the time. You promoted Steven Jensen, the architect of the FBI's overzealous January 6th investigation. I want the American public to realize what we did. That man was in a position where he literally fought back against the machine who was saying, we want to politicize this event. We want to politicize this event. And at the end of the day, remember, Maria, there's a chain of command here. So you can fight back your chain of command to a certain degree before they fire you. And Steve Jensen and other folks were promoted because they embody what the American public demands of FBI agents.

32:53To get to the bottom of something like January 6th in the pipe bomber case, for example, you need three things. You need people, you need information, and you need people with information. I'll allow the public to put that together and just wait and you'll see. Nothing we're doing, nothing is by accident. People who are quote unquote - Okay.

33:15Dan Bongino:You see something like that and you're like, yeah, whatever, here's promoting Jensen. You idiots. I mean, how can you watch something like that and not think, well that's interesting right i think the key there is exactly what i think i posted this after he said it after i watched it on the interview it was you need people you need information and you need people with information put that together it's not that hard no but okay so like here's haley what do you think of that what do you what do you think of that arrangement when he says that what does that tell you well it tells me it tells you that they're working and it tells you that what this FBI is doing differently than they've ever done before is I think they're actually listening to federal agents who about what they need and what support they need.

33:58Director Patel has said many times that they're taking these agents out of DC. All these agents are just like stockpiled here in DC waiting to get promoted and make more money and they want to be out in the field. So they're out in the field. They're doing things differently. It's not people at the top who think that they're the bosses it's we were just talking about good and bad bosses right this is indicative that they are good bosses because they're listening to what the people underneath

34:22Dan Bongino:them need and they're giving them that support also the way that dan presented that when he says we need people we need information we need people with information what that instantly made me think of is any criminal investigation that relies on one of the perps flipping against the rest of the conspiracy exactly it's like okay wait a second we're keeping this guy around for a reason not a mistake everyone's paying attention to it that's fine not a mistake we're keeping this guy around again i'm not just i'm just inferring all of this based on the obvious to me right so it's just he they're like okay yeah we'll keep him around so he's leaving now now he released a statement yesterday jensen did it was a nice statement it was great to work with everybody see you later I'm on the way out.

35:06Dan Bongino:It wasn't a bitter, whiny, bitchy statement about, I can't believe what's happening at the Bureau. To me, you just do the math on all of this and you start to think, well, they used Jensen as much as they could. They wrung him dry and then they got rid of him. So whatever utility they had for this guy has been exhausted. Goodbye. Thanks for your help. And in exchange for not raining holy hell down on him, everyone can go their merry way. He releases a statement about how great it was to work at the FBI. I think that this story is only made more interesting by the news we heard. And to the point we started with, which is like, how many people have been fired?

35:42Dan Bongino:Over 600 people have been fired, forced into early retirement, reassigned. This is not a story that the media have been telling. This is not a story that you're able to read all over the place. But it is a story that matters. Well, here's the thing. You said it's not a story the media has been telling. The media has pretty much kind of ignored everything that's coming out of the FBI. Yeah. Because they don't want to necessarily report on it. Either that or B, they don't even necessarily understand it. The problem is, and this goes, maybe you can speak to this too, Haley. It's the people on social media.

36:18You have a lot of high end influencers and a cross segment of a certain population of people who just are completely against cash and Dan at the FBI. and are going to say anything that they can. These were the ones screaming the loudest for Jensen's head. Yes. Now that he's gone, they're going to ignore it and they're going to say it's not enough. More people should have been fired. They want everything done now. And, you know, it doesn't matter. They don't want any investigations into anything. They don't want things done the right way. They would rather things go back to the Biden administration where we just willy-nilly put people in jail because we could and nobody was going to say anything.

36:58Dan Bongino:Yeah. And I'm not, look, I'm not against people being aggressive with what they want. I think that's fine, including for people like our friend Dan. Like, he's a big boy. He's in the government. And if you're like, I want more information about Epstein, or if I want to see prosecutions of Russiagate, or I don't think Steve Jensen should work in the government. The cool thing about this country is you can vocalize that opinion, and those guys will hear it, and maybe it will place even more pressure on them to accelerate into the good thing. That's perfectly fine. But it's the the bad faith attacks where you're like, what are you doing?

37:29And there's too many.

37:30Dan Bongino:What are you doing? Yeah, there's a lot of that out there. It turns out people have bad faith attacks on social media. Turns out, just a few. But yeah, to your point, people are always gonna be upset. I always say these social media haters, mostly on the left, but it's like, do you remember that childhood book, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie? Yes. If you give the mouse a cookie, he's gonna want a napkin, he's gonna want a glass of milk, he's gonna want whatever. It just like goes on and on and on, right? These people, you give them an inch, they'll take a mile. They want to see what they want to see.

37:59And to your point about, you have to do this the right way. We can't just, the way that the Biden DOJ was making concerned parents at school board meetings out to be domestic terrorists and all these things, we can't act like that. We have to, now that we're in charge, we have to do it the right way. And on Epstein, like you said, recently, I want transparency, right? This is what I've been calling for the entire time. Transparency, transparency. But then there was a question about whether or not the DOJ was going to release the transcript of Todd Blanche's interview with Glenn Maxwell. And I said, that could actually be dangerous if you're throwing out, if she named names and they don't have the evidence to charge those names or those people with a crime, yet that could be dangerous to release people's names if they don't have evidence of them being a pedophile or implicated because that's just her saying it so i'm like i want transparency but let's

38:56Dan Bongino:wait and do it the right way yeah i will say the last point on this and then i want to thank some of our great sponsors here i dan and cash and trump and everybody else they've inherited the piss poor reputation of our government yes yeah we don't trust anyone and so the reality is even the guys we like when they're in that position face excess scrutiny exactly because they're inheriting the awful reputation of a government that keeps lying to us about everything so and they're and they're the right guys to be in this these jobs i mean if you're gonna if you're gonna place anybody at the top and say well i trust them i'm glad cash and dan are doing it i'm glad trump is there i'm glad tulsi's dni i've got there's a there's a long long list of people that i'm very pleased are in this are in this government they're battle-hardened uh and they're I think they're doing a good job.

39:46Dan Bongino:All right, more ahead. More and more Americans are all prioritizing their wellness. I'm one of those. I've been trying to prioritize my wellness. I don't always do a great job.

43:53He did his best. He sacrificed. He did a great job. Okay. And he looks like he weighs like a buck 25. He doesn't look like a big guy. Haley, how attractive is it that a man would

44:04Dan Bongino:sacrifice his body to protect his woman? This is good masculinity. This is positive masculinity, not toxic masculinity. We need more of it. He was, I'm telling you, I know Big Balls is kind of a salty nickname, but I saw a lot of women this week. He has Big Balls for doing that. Very appreciative of this young man. 19 years old. And super genius. Yeah. Yeah. As well. You just said something though that triggered me. You triggered me, Hayley. What? There's no such thing as toxic masculinity. That needs to be stripped from our lexicon. Make the case. You have to. There is no toxic masculinity. Masculinity is nothing but good.

44:42I agree. Make the case. Humanity is still here. Humans are still reproducing. The reason because of that is because of masculinity. Yes. Because we are, as men, willing to go out and do what we have to do to provide for a family.

44:57Dan Bongino:Yes, you're right. You're wrongly ascribing toxicity to something that's just a fact. Masculinity is just a fact. Femininity is just a fact. And they're both needed. Yes. So needed. Yeah. So to demonize one, you need the other. Exactly. Doesn't make sense to take down one. Yes. And the left is trying to get rid of that, too. They just want a feminine society all over, like men and women. We're kind of androgynous, even. Yeah. It's just like. It doesn't matter. Look at your microphone right there. You have a male end and a female end. That's true. If you had two female ends, we wouldn't be hearing this.

45:29We wouldn't be on the air right now.

45:30Dan Bongino:No, we could not scissor our way into a broadcast. It wouldn't actually work. And actually, being in the radio industry, you know this. It's like everything's described very literally. That's the male piece. That's the female piece. Clink. And it works. And it works. Yeah. How about that? But they're trying to change all of that. Like, remember the debate a couple years ago about whether manhole covers was an acceptable way to describe them? Well, they want to just get rid of the word man in everything and all government documents and language. And, you know, that's where we, you know, birthing person was born.

46:02Birthing person and chest feeding and all these words that don't exist.

46:06Dan Bongino:But it's all over the place. So, like, there's, I remember, like, we've done stories before about, like, midair stuff, like, notice to airmen. And they got rid of notice to airmen. they no longer say that anymore no that's back with sean duffy oh my neighbor the pilot i've told you guys about my neighbor the pilot this is one of his little pet peeves yes and he was like i can't believe they changed it was noticed to they they took out cockpit it was flight deck and now it's back to cockpit again and um notice the airmen became i can't even remember what it what it became noticed the aviators or something yeah it's back now yeah so sean duffy no it's everything so like we used to use the phrase stewardess but nobody does that now he's now flight attendant they've made a gender neutral or whatever um although there's a lot of gender neutral flight attendants if you're flying but if you notice it's also in hollywood like everyone is now an actor like you're not allowed to say actress right right what i don't the whole thing is is maddening one of my biggest pet peeves is in media when people refer to spokespeople or spokesperson specifically because it's a spokesperson and then i'll read the name and it's a woman and i'll always say on there like actually it's a spokeswoman or that's a spokesman right like it's not a spokesperson why are we doing that well is there are we to be ashamed of our gender is that the point what is the point of this hailey you know honestly i'm thinking about it but i think it's just leaving the door open for trans people right that's what this whole thing is about because if men can be women and vice versa which is obviously uh false but if you create the language that makes it comfortable for the trans community then all the liberals are happy but it's probably that probably plays a meaningful role that's why it's spokesperson so that you're not saying one or the other even though everyone is one or the other even if you're transitioning to one or the other you're one or the other it's binary and also i think that this is like kind of a legacy of like people like generically thinking that it was like some sort of diminished position to be a woman so let's like make everything the same right so there's a lot of authors for instance female authors who don't use their first names who use initials instead to conceal their gender when they're starting out their career because they think they're not taking quite as seriously because they're a woman are you thinking yeah no the jk rowling is probably a good example i haven't i don't know the origin story behind that but that is typically the reason that female authors use their initials although then there's like c.s lewis and g.k chesterton and like all these men who you know did the same thing so maybe it's just an author pattern uh but you know that is you know that that that is a thing and we should get over it i think it's just woke politicians though that are pushing this forward because if you asked women in the military or a female pilot are you offended by the word cockpit women who are in this industry and leaders in this industry are probably going to tell you, no, I don't care.

49:03They grew up and their entire careers, it's been this one thing. They're probably thinking, what are we doing? It reminds me of when Pete Hegseth was asked, a reporter asked him about the women who were in the bombers, the B2 bombers that dropped the bomb. And they said, oh, but you said our men out there, our boys out there. And he was like, are you kidding me? And seriously, I want to know, ask the woman if she's offended that he said, are boys out there? No, she's dropping bombs. She's probably one of the badass. She's the most badass woman. She doesn't care. Yeah. She's not, she's not easily offended.

49:40She's got to be badass.

49:41Dan Bongino:That was never an issue for her. It is, it is truly, truly crazy. I want to end today with some breaking news from the New York Times, actually. The New York Times says that the President of the United States has apparently directed the military now to target the drug cartels. Now, we talk a lot about what it means to use American military force and what kind of missions they should be on. And Haley, as far as I'm concerned, in terms of our America first interests the stuff that's killing a hundred thousand americans a year kind of seems like priority number one in terms of national security right absolutely um the border crisis the left has turned it into a race issue but it is not a race issue at all it's so much more than that they're kind of dumbing it down to maybe make themselves understand but it's human trafficking and it's drug trafficking that are killing people and putting kids in danger and women in danger and American families in danger.

50:46So when people on the left say, oh, President Trump just wants to deport, you know, black and brown people, this is a white supremacist thing. No, this is keeping people here of any color, any race, any whatever, safe from these destructive industries.

51:05Dan Bongino:Yeah, big time. What do you think about this? Military strikes on cartels, Jim. When you think about what happened, especially in this last election and during the Biden administration, when they were trafficking people over the border, they were bringing drugs willy nilly into the country, just, you know, at at will, basically getting them into the country. And when you think about the counties on the Texas border that had been blue for 100 years, that finally said we're going for Donald Trump because their lives were being ruined down there on the border. These are poor people, basically, mostly Hispanic, by the way, that were having their lives ruined by these cartels and the illegals coming through.

51:49And these people are just trying to make a living in the United States. And this is why those counties went red, because they can't handle this anymore. They have danger lurking right across that river. And right across that river is real easy to get across, or was until Donald Trump took office. It's not a deep river in many areas, and it's easy to walk across, and it's not a wide river for the most part. they can see the danger literally see the danger right across the river from them yeah they see the guns they see the cartels um they found bodies you know not only of illegal immigrants trying to get into this country but bodies that have had limbs and heads cut off by these these are actual terrorists and if you want to go to war against something the war on drugs the way we have fought it for decades has not worked at all but this is a real war on drugs that can be

52:48Dan Bongino:waged and i i think it's a legit cause but we are in a war that we haven't i mean you talk about war on drugs but we haven't really been fighting back against this war a hundred thousand americans dead you throw money at it is what they do yeah that's it and so president trump is finally going to do it there's been a lot of people who've talked about like this has to be done and the president clearly has this in mind. And if every time you visit some sort of sad, once great, hollowed out town that has is completely defunct and really whose only defining feature is drug use and sadness, it makes you think like, I want to go to war to save this town.

53:26Dan Bongino:I want to go to war to save these communities. And so, you know, obviously, there's a right way to do this. You don't want to be caught in some ever never ending quagmire and create more problems. But you do want to strike in such a way that you can stop this from happening again. I think that's a big deal. All right. So, all right, let's end on a lighter note. All right. I've got one more. I said one more. All right. Let me change one more, one more thing. This, I should not laugh at the video that we're about to play for you, but I, I was laughing out loud at it. This is the headline that I read this morning from the Daily Caller.

53:59Dan Bongino:Fire chief reportedly suspended after telling 10 year old to shut the fuck up. Even before I clicked the video, I was laughing. I was like, you're not supposed to laugh at that. You're not supposed to... Take a look. This comes to us from Long Island. Shut the fuck up. You is what the fuck is.

54:22No, I don't. Shut your mouth. No, I don't.

54:31gone are the days of gentle parenting no one's gentle parenting anymore your kids being annoying

54:36Dan Bongino:it's shut the f up let me tell you i'm gonna read the quotes to you from this piece just because i it might not have been crystal clear shut the fuck up the man appears to yell it's like this with you every fucking week i don't want to the child says as they're putting the child into the ambulance quote i want to go home i i have a million questions about this it's like this every week right how often are they shoving this kid into an ambulance what's going on the kid is obviously a problem she's the kenny of their community yeah does she die in every episode is that the way this works and the guy's like you're always like this he's he's screaming at her like they're a couple headed for divorce yes like they're obviously very familiar with each If the local law enforcement knows your name and they see you frequently on a weekly basis, you're doing something wrong.

55:27The kid is the problem.

55:28Dan Bongino:Ten years old. I don't want to. You do this all the time. Shoving her into the car. Well, I hope she gets better and I hope they can patch up whatever problems they have. It's the first time I think we'll see a ten-year-old and a fire chief go to therapy. But maybe they will. And hopefully, you know, hopefully that guy can get his job back. He's currently suspended. Yes. I think. Oh, bring him back. Yeah, bring him back. Reinstate him. Bring him back. Free him. Free my boy. Honestly, what's his name? We got to do it. I know. We need an online campaign. We'll have to look it up. But in the meantime, what a joy it's been to hang out with you guys.
