The Schumer Shutdown Shafts Americans Again | Episode 138

23:52Dan Bongino:So will you, Hakeem Jeffries, as you listen to this, the question might be a little hard to hear. The first question is, are members of Congress going to forego their paychecks during this period? Are they going to stop taking pay, you know, in solidarity with all these other federal government employees who are not receiving money right now? Are you going to stop taking pay? And then the reporter specifically says, you, Hakeem Jeffries, are you going to stop taking pay? Listen to his squirrely little answer as he refuses to stop taking your money during this period that he caused. So there's been several members of Congress that have asked they'll pay if they shut down.

24:31Do you advise Democratic members to do that or is it up to them? Yeah, that's a question that every individual member is going to have to make on their own, as has always been the case in the past. Will you withhold it? First of all, that question is not even a ripe one because we're anticipating that this shutdown issue will be resolved. That's not a ripe one. That's not a ripe. The last question was, are you going to give up your pay during this period? Oh, no, no. I'm going to keep taking one hundred and seventy four thousand, whatever the number is. I don't know what he gets specifically as the leader of the Democrats, but these these members of Congress, they get one hundred seventy four thousand dollars a year.

25:14you know on top of whatever sort of insider trading deals the rest of them are all engaged in not all of them but enough of them that they become you know nancy pelosi rich over that time period it's amazing how rich these guys become as as public servants uh but hakim jeffries oh no i don't want to talk about that i don't want to talk about giving up my paycheck what dude you're forcing the troops to not get paid right now screw you drop your pay we should drop your pay however that can be done it's ridiculous a ripe question yeah so uh so yeah no he's not giving up his pay is the is the summary to that uh not going to do that um coming up on the program uh i've got a bunch of other things to hit today with you um we're gonna have steve helton join us in just a minute we'll get his reaction to everything going on with this government shutdown madness and And also, I want to talk to Steve about the effort to crack down on crime in America.

26:10Dan Bongino:The president right now has deployed federal law enforcement to Memphis, Tennessee. That's a Republican led state with a violent crime problem in a Democrat run city. This collaboration is already going very well, very, very well. I'm going to bring you updates on that subject in a moment as we talk to Steve Hilton, and then I'm going to get into it, because you're going to want to hear this. An incredible moment from the White House's Stephen Miller, as he says that no more of this crime in America. If there is an unsafe street in our country, we're going after it. We're cleaning things up. We have American citizens to defend.

29:49I think much better is an understatement. Totally different leadership. So we get rid of the lunatics that have destroyed this beautiful state. We're going to make it golden again. That's my line. I really hope you do. Because, you know, like I'm just looking at like every day we're served up some other idiotic headline about Gavin Newsom.

30:07Dan Bongino:I mean, I just played earlier in the program. Gavin Newsom is making like cringy memes now about J.D. Vance. And he seems so unfocused on the needs of your state and so caught up in this sort of bizarro ambition to run for president in 2028. What's going on there? How to what extent are Gavin Newsom's political ambitions taking his focus off of actually helping your state become better in any way? Well, he's making everything worse. so apart from the the obvious things that everyone can see right the the squalor the chaos on the streets the the homelessness that's so out of control and not getting better you've got behind that things that aren't so visible if you don't live here

31:00unemployment rate in america in california can't afford basic needs the highest cost for everything that matters for um housing electricity bills gas prices water all the most expensive in america the worst business climate you know it's just a total failure and he's the most useless governor in america i've used this term i saw it as an event a maga event and i just saw a big maga sign there and it occurred to me that the right um acronym for newsom is mugger the most useless governor in America. He starts running for president for real. I will be the governor of California. And I'm going to make sure as I'm clearing up the mess that he's made, the whole country knows what a total disaster Newsom is.

31:48And don't let him anywhere near the White House to make America as bad as California is now in terms of outcomes.

31:56Dan Bongino:Let me ask you about the crime problem in your state. Right now, we're witnessing a massive discrepancy in a lot of ways between the Republican led states and the Democrat led states. The Democrats, by and large, are refusing to cooperate with the president of the United States to bring about a peace in their cities. Places like Los Angeles continue to have a violence problem where the president has tried to intervene, but Democrats, including the mayor and the governor, have resisted him. Places like Chicago and Illinois, a Democrat mayor, Democrat governor, They're resisting the president. They're trying to stop him from helping that community.

32:33Dan Bongino:But then you look at a place like like Tennessee, where in Memphis right now, the governor there, Governor Lee, is welcoming the president of the United States. And they're making arrests in Memphis. The community of Memphis is very grateful to have the president helping them out. You know, what what will it look like? So should you should you be victorious here? what's your plan to try and bring about a peace in cities like la and to what extent would you cooperate with president trump to do that well 100 including on immigration enforcement as well which is one of the great scandals where you've got um you know we again we have the worst problem in terms of the scale of illegal immigrant um illegal immigration in the state you know and it relates obviously to the health care issue that's related to the government shutdown but in terms of crime what you're seeing is a model actually how i would deal with it here in california because we've got the same principle we've got local law enforcement and leaders not doing their job like karen bass in los angeles who i saw last night outrageously gaslighting everyone saying oh in los angeles crime is dramatically lower that's her word dramatic it's a joke no one thinks that everyone can see it it's just getting worse and worse So I would not only work with the federal government and take advantage of any resources there, but use state law enforcement resources in order to step in and deal with crime when it's not being dealt with by local leaders like Karen Bass in Los Angeles.

34:09The other point is, as governor, I would reverse Newsom's closure of state prisons, which has released tens of thousands of dangerous, violent criminals into the community or into local county jails that are completely overcrowded. So you don't have you have basically catch and release at the local level. All that I will reverse through increasing prison capacity. So it's going to be a massive change when I'm governor. We're going to have tough on crime, just as we're seeing at the federal level. And what the administration is showing, as with the border and all these actions, if you just have common sense, strong leadership, you can make a difference very quickly.

34:47Yeah. Yeah. OK. Talk to me about the government shutdown, would you?

34:51Dan Bongino:Because what we're witnessing right now is Democrats have shut the government down. They're trying to they're trying to fight to restore medical expenditures for illegal aliens. They want to take American taxpayer money and give it to illegal aliens. They're claiming that that's not happening. But you live in a state where this is a very real experience. You live in a state where there's a lot of illegal aliens who are taking taxpayer money. And it seems to me that California Democrats, including and especially Gavin Newsom, want more Medicaid dollars coming to the state in order to subsidize all of these illegal aliens.

35:29Dan Bongino:What am I getting wrong about that? You're 100 percent right. And just let's just note yet again, the Democrats, I don't know what's wrong with them. They keep taking these these positions that are so obviously insane and indefensible. Just not that long ago, they were siding with that wife beater, sticking up for the wife beater, illegal immigrant criminal. And that's that's supposed to be, you know, the great stand. They were kill, Mara, who, by the way, just the breaking news on that this morning is he has a final order of deportation. He's not coming back. He's definitely leaving. I bet we'll see Democrat politicians at the airport trying to cling on to him and keep him in the country.

36:07I mean, it's just a joke. And here they are again now defending something that the vast majority of Americans thinks is outrageous, which is their money going towards people who shouldn't even be here in the first place. California is an example of why they're lying. They say they don't want this and it's all made up. No. Gavin Newsom in California has officially introduced, it's not even hidden, he put a line item in the budget. And even this year in his budget, where there was blowback even from Democrats about the scale of this, he pretended to limit the benefits that illegal immigrants get in terms of health care in California through our version of Medicaid.

36:43He increased the budget. And here's the number. It's over 12 billion dollars in California spent on free health care for illegal immigrants. And so the idea that they're not for this is a joke. We can see. Yes, they are. And also the point about they keep going on Democrats about, oh, community hospitals closing. Why are they closing? Because they are overrun with illegal immigrants taking the getting in the. So here's paid for it.

37:09Dan Bongino:Here's my impression of this. And I said this earlier in the show. I've been I've been saying this and the vice president's been expressing this as well. It seems what's happened here is that Democrats, especially in a state like California, they imported a lot of illegal aliens. They just brought a lot of people into the state. And up until the Trump administration, they were using federal taxpayer resources to subsidize what they did to our country. And then when Trump cut them off, now they've got massive expenditures that they don't know how to pay for without fleecing federal taxpayers. So what we're witnessing right now is a blue state bailout.

37:43Dan Bongino:That's what they're attempting to push for, because your state is overrun with illegal aliens. Now you have massive expenditures piling up. And if and if federal taxpayers aren't going to shoulder it, it's going to be stuck onto state taxpayers, which California already paying ridiculous taxes to begin with. So it just looks like they created this disaster and now they're asking the rest of us to pay for it. 100 correct and in fact there's even even more they've they've created all these ridiculous taxes you know there's a provider tax which is all a completely manufactured um gimmick in order to extract more federal money for the bailout exactly as you put it for the massive expansion of of all sorts of services i'm not just health care you look at the schools as well public schools i mean i'm on the road the whole time in california and you just hear story after story in communities where everything is overwhelmed by the scale of the illegal immigration, that they're not just allowed, but encouraged.

38:39And it's just people have had enough of it, including in California. And so this is a very, very strong argument as part of my campaign that we're just going to stop this kind of ridiculous spending that means that Californians just don't get the services they need. And as you say, we have, as a result, the highest taxes in the country.

38:59Dan Bongino:Let me let me end on one other element of illegal immigration that we probably need to spend more time on. But I know California is afflicted by this gang problems in California are immense. There's there's huge problems with illegal alien gangs in California. And there's also huge problems with the drug cartels operating in California practically with with with like without any with impunity and without any meaningful consequence. You have grow operations for drugs in California that are that are just getting away with literal murder in a lot of cases. How big of a deal is this for your state?

39:34It's huge. And I see it all the time. A couple of weeks ago, I was up in the northern part of the state where it's a massive issue with the cartels, both Mexican and you've got Chinese operations there as well, stealing water to grow illegal weed. And as you say, there's the massive explosion of crime. I'm in Los Angeles right now. I was just speaking with a pastor last night who's working on the streets in what he describes as the world's center for human trafficking in Los Angeles, where you've got a three-mile stretch of a street where every night you've got the gangs trafficking young girls.

40:10nothing's being done about it because the california legislature passed a law that meant that lapd can't actually do anything so you're resorting to church leaders trying to do something about it it's disgusting what they've allowed to happen and at the same time these democrats lecture us about compassion and social justice and all the rest of it i mean they are totally out of control that's why i'm very confident despite people thinking oh california is never going to change I'm very confident that we will win this election next year when people see that we just can't go on like this in California.

40:43Okay, the chat is asking a couple of questions that came to mind, and I'll finish with this then.

40:49Dan Bongino:I said I'd finish. Now I'll really finish with this. One, California has ballot harvesting in its elections. Will you be using that to your advantage in order to win this race? And then two, and of course, will you try and get that changed? And then two, if you don't win the primary, will you be committing to support the Republican, whoever that is? Oh, 100 percent. I mean, we've got to have change in whatever capacity. We have to have change in California. I love this state. I raised my family here. I've started a business here. I'm not giving up on California one way or another. We're going to bring about the change.

41:22I'll be there fighting that in terms of ballot harvesting. Yes, we've got to whatever we think of these things, if they are the rules and we've got to use the rules to win. One important thing, though, that I want to highlight to everyone, there's a ballot initiative about to start collecting signatures for voter ID in California. That is going to be huge. If we get that on the ballot for next year, it's going to help us massively flip the state because it'll help us with the turnout we need, because there are enough Republican voters in California for me to win next year. We just got to get them out.

41:53And voter ID is going to be a big part of motivating people to come out next year and vote for change. I love it. All right. Steve Hilton, always appreciate our conversations. Thank you for stopping by today. Great to be with you. Thank you. Good to talk to you. There he is, Steve Hilton, even though Gavin Newsom tried to interfere with our internet connection. But we succeeded. We succeeded with the great Steve Hilton. Glad to have him here. We were just talking a moment ago about what's going on in Memphis, Tennessee.

42:21Dan Bongino:And that's where I want to take you next, because we've got a success story that's worth dwelling on here. Memphis is a very violent place, a very, very violent place. And as I've been advocating here on this program, I was looking for the president to not just try and go into these blue states, but instead to go into red states with these violent Democrat run cities. And he did that. The president announced recently that he was going into Memphis. And this week we are seeing the fruits of that labor. in the first 48 hours of the Trump administration's presence in Memphis, we already get these results.

42:57Dan Bongino:There's Todd Blanche from the United States Department of Justice saying on X that, quote, Memphis has the highest violent crime rate in America and already more than 150 murders this year. Broken bail and failed local leadership have fueled the crisis. In just two days at the president's direction, the Memphis Safe Task Force made 53 arrests, including 12 illegal aliens and seized illegal guns. This is how we make Memphis safe again. And we won't stop until every community in America is safe. All right. So that's just in 48 hours, 53 arrests. There's a lot more to do, of course, in a place like Memphis, but it is underway.

43:45Dan Bongino:And as proof of the Trump administration's commitment to Memphis, we get a big press conference yesterday that included the Tennessee governor, Bill Lee, as well as a bunch of top Trump administration officials. Here is Governor Bill Lee doing what every single one of these Democrat governors should be doing, which is thanking the president of the United States for the offer of help, accepting it and cleaning up their cities. Here's Tennessee Governor Bill Lee cut nine yesterday. I'm very grateful to the president. I'm very grateful to his team. But I'm very grateful for you. For you who are out there doing the hard work, who are putting yourselves in harm's way.

44:30Yeah, thank you.

44:31Dan Bongino:And by the way, that speech is to the men and women of law enforcement as Governor Bill Lee indicates his gratitude to the president and the cops who are putting themselves and their lives on the line each day to try and bring a peace to a very violent city that needs a rescue. love seeing that now part of that effort is the role that the National Guard are playing there's a whole bunch of agencies who are involved here but the National Guard involved the Secretary of Work Pete Hegseth also appearing at this press conference in Memphis Tennessee here's the great Pete Hegseth cut 10 look at this I'll just say what a privilege it is to be here we see you up I see green, blue, black, tan, camouflage.

45:19All together, one cause, one city. It's really cool to have a privilege, and we all do, Steve and Pam, myself, so many others, to see how much President Trump loves Americans, American cities, and American citizens. and how he puts America first. And as the Department of War, we're proud to be part of that effort to ensure we're defending the homeland and defending those who defend the homeland. Yeah, we're proud to be a part of this. You see him thank everybody from all the various law enforcement agencies. He was picking them out on the color of their uniforms. So the man is not colorblind. He can pick out the colors.

46:04but there he is thanking everybody that's a big sign it's not every day that you get the secretary

46:08Dan Bongino:of war showing up in your community but it's a sign of the seriousness of the trump administration he was standing alongside the attorney general of the united states pam bondy uh who was there and he was also standing next to stephen miller one of the top officials in the trump white house who uh that guy's electric he's he wakes up every day his wife just said recently obsessed about america uh in trying to save her and here's stephen miller giving i think one of the speeches of the week we've had a couple of them earlier this week pete hegseth gave an amazing speech to all the generals and the admirals which i i think is phenomenal but one of the speeches of the week from the trump administration as he rallies law enforcement to save memphis tennessee here's stephen miller to the memphis police department the officers that they see sitting in front of We are about to provide you with a level of support you cannot even imagine.

47:06This isn't just a task force. This is an all-of-government unlimited support operation. ATF, DEA, FBI, ICE, Department of War, every resource we have. And then I'm going to be sitting behind a desk at a keyboard. We are sending in real cops with guns and badges to go out with you on the street every single night making arrests. These are people who have taken down drunk girls, kingpins, the worst criminal offenders in the United States, standing with you shoulder to shoulder to shoulder. All we ask from you is to show up at roll call every single night with your brothers and sisters in the federal government and to go out and get the criminals off the street.

47:56And if you do that, I pledge to you, we will liberate this city from the criminal element that has plagued it for generations. This is not just a strategy shift. This is an attitude shift. We are not going to live in an environment everywhere, anywhere, where there is a street that belongs to the criminal, where there is a neighborhood that belongs to the gang, where there's any physical space anywhere that belongs to anyone other than the law-abiding citizens and families of Memphis. The idea that there's a queer engine block in this city where a citizen doesn't feel safe is unacceptable. This is Memphis.

48:36This is the United States of America. And all that bullshit is done. It's over. It's finished.

48:44i i can't love it more i just can't love it more i'm so glad that these guys are doing it

48:50Dan Bongino:uh and it's nice to hear guys talk like that just be plain spoken to encourage law enforcement and say hey look any inch of city in america that is being controlled by criminals we are done as the secretary of war would say with that shit we are no more we're not doing that anymore justin that's your cue justin that's your cue we're done with that shit thank you very much we're done with that we're done with it get rid of it enough and it's not just memphis and look you got democrat-run cities and states this has to be done in two whether they like it or not going to chicago going to la going to portland oregon right now holy cow you see these these weak little pieces of garbage who are going out with their lightsabers and sticks, hitting reporters, hitting law enforcement, laying ice under siege every night.

49:47Dan Bongino:Just drag their stupid, pathetic asses into jail. Just get rid of them. Get rid of them. I'm tired of this. Are you tired of this? I'm tired of this. I don't want any more of that. I want our city's back. For Americans. For Americans. So God bless the Trump administration for for stepping things up. And all I want, I'm a very simple man. All I want is more. All I want is more. And the people of Memphis, Tennessee, by the way, they know what's up. They know the Democrats have sold them out. Now, obviously, you say, but Vince, they keep electing Democrats to represent them. Yeah, you got to fix that problem.

50:30Dan Bongino:You got to break people of this idiotic spell because it's driven that great American city into the dirt. But there are people in Memphis who know what's going on. For those of you watching right now, rumble.com slash vans, the video version of the show, we've got, you'll be able to see here. I've got video here. It's a CNN broadcast from Memphis, Tennessee this week. There's a man wearing a dark MAGA hat, you know, black MAGA hat. and he steps up behind the CNN reporter and he holds up a sign that says Democrats destroyed Memphis law enforcement as we've seen them get ready and go out and make runs throughout the day we know more than 50 arrests were made just last night 20 guns taken off the street in the last 48 hours you see people like this who behind me with this sign he has it on both sides if you can flip it around and show what he's saying he's hoping that this action by Trump will help make this city safer take a listen to a man that we talked to in a neighborhood that basically says he welcomes the idea of this federal action yeah so even cnn's going out in the street what do you think of this trump sucks right no actually i'm super happy that he's here so you get that gentleman standing there with his dark maga hat democrats destroyed memphis and then he and then the cnn reporter which uh you know he was trying to figure out what do i do about this this guy's in my camera frame so he's like all right well let's just talk about that he's here here's one guy who thinks that it's great.

51:51We turn your sign around. Go ahead. And when he does, he turns his

51:53Dan Bongino:sign around and says, thank you, President Trump. Thank you, President Trump. Now, it didn't have to be this way. It didn't have to be this way. You know, you can have a sensible bail program in that state. You don't have to release all these criminals back onto the streets in no time where they can inflict more damage. You can actually defend the people of your state. You can demonstrate that if someone calls 911, that the cops will actually show up, place the bad guy under arrest, and then that person is not back out on the street in no time. You could do that. It would make the city safer. But Democrats didn't.

52:24Dan Bongino:Democrats have sold out the people of Memphis. They've sold out the people of L.A. They've sold out the people of Portland, the people of Chicago, the people of Washington, D.C. So now, guess what? Daddy's home. Now we've got somebody who's going to step up and say, you know what? I'm going to do something about this. I'm going in. I'm going to smack these people around. We're going to restore order. It has to be done. And the people of Memphis who are not breaking the law, the law-abiding citizens, are holding up signs saying, thank you, President Trump. Democrats destroyed Memphis. More. Give me more.

52:58That's all I ask. I end today with amazing piece of footage.

53:09Dan Bongino:I love the misery of Kamala Harris and Tampon Tim. I can't get enough of it. I think it's some of the funniest stuff ever. Remember when Tampon Tim got destroyed by J.D. Vance in the vice presidential debate. And then Kamala Harris in her book that she didn't even write, whoever wrote it for her, complained that Tampon Tim sucked in his debate against J.D. Vance. He was too nice to J.D. Vance. Well, Tampon Tim just did a stage thing, like interview, where he admits that he wasn't ready for a United States Marine and now Vice President J.D. Vance. Here's Tampon Tim, cut 13. As far as the book and things like that go, I think she has every right to be critical.

53:49I do think I let her down on a couple things. And I warned them my Minnesota nice thing is, if somebody's being nice to me, I'll be nice to them. You're talking about the debate with J.D. Vance where she criticized you. Yeah, these people have seen me debate. I know my subject. I'm pretty good at it. I don't think I'm particularly mean. If the vice presidential debate mattered, Dan Quayle would have never been vice president with Lloyd Benson. But it did matter. It did matter, though. And it was, I think, in the moment we were in, in preparing for that. And quite honestly, we did not prepare for him to be more cordial.

54:21The expectation was that he would do the false attacks and do some of that. And they didn't. So I'll give them this. They were well prepared. But my goal was to try and find, you know, getting there. And I'm saying, you know, we all want to fix immigration, but you're doing, you know, you're doing the dogs and cat stuff. What we're talking about is fixing the system, adjudicating, you know, asylum claims faster. That was viewed as me trying to find common ground. and the teacher in me, and this is nervous tick or habit that we have when you're a teacher, when someone else is speaking next to you, you instinctively nod and listen and try and listen.

54:53And that was viewed as, and the vice president took it that I was agreeing on some of the things that were a personal attack on her and it wasn't that at all. Because when the teachers are in any other one, I'm like, that's really interesting. It's dumb as hell, but it's very interesting. You know, I was doing that. He's such an idiot. They said, we really wanted to fix the illegal immigration problem. We really wanted, really? Because I'm pretty sure your running mate was the border czar. You remember that? And what did the border czar do to stop the flow of illegal immigration? Oh, nothing. Nothing.

55:26She gave us the, we got the do not come speech. That was funny. That was a funny moment in American history. But beyond that, nothing. In fact, again, it wasn't like the left just, man, shoot, we really messed up. We didn't secure the border as well as we should have. You brought these people in. You imported them into America by the millions. And then you gave them health care. And now you're lying to us about that. So what's the theme of this program? The left lies to us, even then.

56:00Dan Bongino:And yes, you got your ass handed to you by J.D. Vance. Yes, you weren't ready for it. And I've got news for you. You never were going to be ready for it. and you were going to get your ass handed to you every time in every iteration of that debate.
