In short
Dan Bongino argues that media and progressives misrepresent America and politics, urges listeners to reject “doom and grifter” narratives, and uses the “Trump accounts” idea as a solution to Social Security’s alleged “generational Ponzi” problem. He also attacks socialism as failing due to a “knowledge problem,” and claims parents must preemptively inoculate kids against academia’s leftist messaging.
Guest backgrounds
No guests are interviewed in the provided transcript. Bongino references public figures and clips (e.g., Marco Rubio, Alicia Keys, Constantine Kisin, Robert Reich, and a video montage of academia headlines), but they are not presented as guests.
Key claims
The U.S. is portrayed as worse than it is; liberals/progressives are “stupid” by choice and rely on illogic. Socialism fails because people won’t share their own resources and governments can’t know what individuals need. Social Security is described as spending “fake IOUs,” and “Trump accounts” are framed as privately invested accounts that reduce government control.
Notable examples
U.S. World Cup soccer coverage (“red card” focus); a World Cup fan video praising American hospitality; the Graham Plattner endorsement controversy; Alicia Keys’ claim about women’s constitutional rights; Cuban socialism experience via Rubio; “Trump accounts” reacting to future Social Security benefit cuts.

That you all, the compliments and comments are so nice in the chat. I just really appreciate you being here. I just want you to know that. On my life, the fact that you guys see through all the blackpilling, the dooming, the grifting, frankly, the bullshit, that you see through it all and you understand who's here for the right reasons and who's not that you just don't fall for the bot armies and all that stuff it really is refreshing it gives me such renewed faith in this great wonderful movement we're part of i really do i i love you guys something happened last that's nothing major but i was talking to a friend of mine about you know the political environment for podcasts so it's a summer it's in really not it's not a presidential election year, the midterms.
1:29It's, you know, it's kind of like the political doldrums. It's like sports podcasts after the Superbowl. And this friend of mine who is deep into data analytics was like, you're in great shape, man. Like, and I'm just really proud. I mean, I really love you guys. So thank you so much. It means a lot to me. Sorry. You mean to get off track. We got a lot going on now. There's a ton going on. I haven't even talked about the Supreme Court cases, yes.

2:08Again, libs. You ever heard of a cranial rectitotomy? Take your cranium, your head, take that region and remove it from your ass. there are a thousand things going on we could talk about right now and this is all they care about why because ladies and gentlemen it is a party devoid of logic and reason with no compass true north and i'm so glad we're not that i told you yesterday there's no different between the fake doomer grifter right and the lib media lunatic commie left there's no difference there's no difference they both rely on anything but logic and reason and that's why they're often in the midst worried about the reflecting pool right now.

4:30Must be 18 or older and not prohibited from possessing ammo. Must be 21 for handgun ammunition. AmmoSquared.com today. All right, fellas, let's go. All the libs in the media care about was Trump's comment on this freaking red card on a soccer game. Listen, it was great. We had a good run. Everybody's like shitting all over the U.S. team. They probably shouldn't have even made it that far. It was a fun game to watch. We lost. Congratulations, Belgium, whatever. It was a good run. I all had a good time. I'm not even a soccer fan. I watched a game last night. I didn't play particularly well. It happens.
5:00Like all these people so eager to shit on America. The liberals were like celebrating. It's the Trump curse. Get the fuck out of here. Did Trump curse my ass? They're like, he showed up at the Knicks game. The Knicks won, you dumb shits. Did you miss it? Who won the finals, Justin? The Knicks, correct? Well, Trump showed up at a game they lost. They lost one game out of four. What are you talking about, you dumb bastards? Don't please. Guys, ladies, stupid is a choice. Liberals, you don't have to be stupid. It is a freaking choice. Can you please just stop being stupid? Take a stupid vacation.
5:36Take a hiatus from stupid. Take a sabbatical. Take a stupid sabbatical. They played great, the U.S. team. They lost last night. It happens. It happens. Congratulations, U.S. team. Good job. God bless America. I'm happy I lived here. I'm happy I live in this country. I'm ecstatic about the 250th birthday. Team did okay. Liberals were freaking excited yesterday. The Media Research Center is a great outlet. They put together this video. I'm going to place a little bit of it. This is, you want to see why, like, liberals, progressives, socialists, commies, and foreign governments and foreign countries, a lot but not only people, have this ridiculous view of what the United States is, the shooting gallery, murder capital, the universe, blah, blah, blah.
6:24It's all bullshit. Media Research Center put this clip together. It's fantastic. It's how the media in the United States, a lot of this scum, tells the world the United States is versus what the world saw when they came here for the World Cup. And they're still here. Enjoy yourselves. World Cup's not over. Wish all these teams good luck. Have a good time. Where's the finale? Up in New Jersey up there, I think. Is it in the Giants Jet Stadium up there? Great. But don't believe the bullshit, folks. These people are nothing but doom and gloom. Check this out. You'll see what I mean. The World Cups are always sort of a window into the politics of a host nation and into the geopolitical moment.
7:02And in this moment, what we're seeing is the U.S. co-hosting this event in a moment of great turmoil and uncertainty and instability. And that's going to show up in a lot of different ways. Nothing comes close to the U.S.A. The people, the food, the landscapes. I was well and truly born in the wrong country. I just love it here. The rest of the world is looking at the United States and feeling that we are, it's a foreboding image and that we are inhospitable. We owe America a huge apology because America is nothing like what the media tells us. Where are you guys from? Where is everyone from? Japan!
7:39What do you think of America? Of Texas? Texas is good. Everything is big. What? I ask a medium size. That's medium. But what medium?
7:53Thanks so much. You're welcome. I have to say that I'm embarrassed for this country. It was embarrassing. I was embarrassed to be an American. And of course Larry is embarrassed to be an American. In that way, we should all be. This old couple just walked past me and they go, good morning. I was like, what the hell? Did you guys talk to each other here? It's so beautiful. Everybody's so friendly. Southern hospitality. The air smells nice. Our president's vengefulness, dishonesty and bullying should make us all cringe. If you love America, cringe for it. Absolutely incredible. There really is. like no other.
8:28I honestly think unless you live in America or unless you visit here, you can't really comprehend how nice these areas are. Juice McGroin in the chat. If you're embarrassed then leave. Yeah, go. Folks, I'm in the South a lot. Well, I live in Florida, but you know what they say about Florida. The more south you go, the more north you get. I mean, it's south geographically speaking, but south Florida is a lot of northeasterners. But I'm in the south-south a lot, like Alabama specifically. I'm going to tell you something. I put a post up a long time ago after the Iron Bowl. Was it three years ago?
9:13The Milrow miracle. I'm an Auburn fan. Here's a hint. Milrow did not play for Auburn, so it wasn't a miracle for me. Congratulations to the Alabama fans. But let me tell you something the game was in auburn auburn it was a huge upset brewing auburn was going to beat alabama they were a huge underdog and we lost on a what is a 42 yard touchdown pass by uh milro at the end of the game and i'm walking out all depressed and all these people with alabama uh gear on who had come to auburn they're like patting me on the back damn we love your show sorry man but you know it was our day today and i go back to the hotel uh i think i was staying in an Opelika Marriott, right?
9:52And I wake up the next morning at like 5 a.m. I was just, I don't know, I was just so wired. I get up, my cortisol must have spiked early. I couldn't believe they lost the game. And I type out this big, long thing about the South and how the people in the South are just different. You're like such amazing people. Even when they want to like curse at people, they bless your heart. Bless your heart. That's not how they do it in New York. it's just such an amazing place man i don't want you to wake up today all depressed about everything be a happy warrior man lead the charge down the battlefield don't fall prey to these doom and gloom grifters man please because then what's going to happen is you're going to find out that when your only goal in life becomes to shit on the united states and to accumulate power to destroy this place and make no mistake that's what the modern progressive liberal communist socialist move they're all the same thing cut the bullshit okay progressives and they notice i didn't include democrats there are some democrats you got like your fettermans out there who i don't believe are communists i don't i wouldn't vote for them however i do not believe fetterman is in fact a communist however liberals progressives socialists and communists are all the same thing please stop the bullshit, okay?
11:17Stop. It's the same thing. They believe in the accumulation of power to steal away your freedoms, your wealth, your kids' education, your healthcare, everything. Period. Please stop, leftists. Stop the bullshit. Stop selling us a pet rock and telling us it's gold. We know what you're doing. The Graham Plattner debacle should be exhibit A in every future political trial against the Democrats. I've warned you forever that the Democrats' only goal in their triaging their life goals, their only goal is power. They do not care about your health care. They do not care about immigrants. They do not care about your kids' education.
12:03They do not care about your job economic growth. Frankly, folks, they don't even care about tax rates. They care about power. They care about accumulating power. Why did they support Graham Plattner despite allegations like, this is a red line, a woman came out alleging a sexual assault. That's a freaking red line. Not the allegations of mass depuritation. I'm trying to be cool about this. in a ported potty, the mass deterrent, that wasn't enough? The Nazi tattoo wasn't enough? This is definitely, the only reason that the Democrats are now pulling their endorsements behind Plattner, it's not because a red line has been crossed.
12:54It's because the odds of Graham Plattner defeating Susan Collins and assisting them in obtaining power and taking away your healthcare, your finances, your job, your kids' education, your freedoms and liberty have gone down. That's it. Cut the bullshit. Graham Plattner was a vehicle for you to accumulate power at our expense and take away our liberty and freedom. Cut the shit. His chances of winning went down and you threw him overboard. That's the only reason any of this happened. You don't think Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, AOC, and this other crew of dipshits, you don't think they knew this guy was a problem?
13:40There's stories out there of him satisfying himself in a port-a-john. Here's Elizabeth Warren. Not that long ago, it's been a couple weeks. This is my guy. Keep in mind, they knew. the whole time. If Graham Plattner had a 60 % chance of winning after these allegations, they'd be attacking the woman making the allegations. Bank on it. Check this out. I am here because Washington needs fighters and Graham Plattner is the fighter we need. You bet. I said to myself, that's my kind of man.
14:27because that is a man who not only has the values, but a man who believes in accountability. And we need a little accountability coming out of Washington right now. We need Graham Plattner to come in and get rid of the corruption in Washington. Time for new laws. so pow wow chow here pow wow chow's like we need to fight he's fighting with his wiener in the port-a-john they're like these guys like that's a bridge too far no it's not this is your guy we need accountability accountability oh he's accounting for something in the port-a-john just like something about Mary she accounted for it too what is that hair gel that's the only thing they were accounting for Elizabeth Warren, pow-wow chow lady.
15:25Did he account for his bodily fluids? I mean, what? This is the red line now? The people, there are allegations out there that major media outlets, Politico reported the story about the latest allegation. And just to be clear, like, listen, I accept evidence. I don't believe everyone. Women, men, I believe evidence, okay? That's not the point. The point is they already knew about this. And who did I tell you we did this show? Folks in the chat, chime in. You know, we got the contest going, so be picking comment of the day. Who did I tell you was one of the most, if not the most dangerous politician up on Capitol Hill in America right now?
16:11Who is it? Some of you in the chat will know this because you pay attention every day you're here. Who says it first?
16:21Pocahontas, a lot of chat folks. Raul Rokana, who said it? Kmart. Good Kmart. Good prices still. I don't know if you're a stockholder. Kmart, yes. Rokana. He is the biggest fraud I have ever seen in my life. This guy is the worst chameleon up on Capitol Hill. He's even worse than Elizabeth Warren Pow Wow Chow. because Warren you can see through her bullshit. I had high cheekbones with Papa. So I thought I was an Indian from like the Seminole. Get the, you didn't believe any of that shit. Ro Khanna, Ro Khanna is, you listen to this guy talk on TV, goes on Fox and you're like, wow, this guy's for real, he's like a sensible Democrat.
17:08He's a clown and a fraud. Why do I bring him up? Here's his tweet about a masturbatory guy in the Portage House. Now it is a red line. Here's his tweet, Ro Khanna. He said, it's been very clear that sexual assault or violence against women is a red line. They knew about this. These allegations are very serious and credible. So is the minister.
17:34That's serious too. Grant Plattner should drop out of the race. I'm withdrawing my endorsement. This guy's such a clown. How are you falling for this guy's bullshit? Guys, man, listen. Ladies, gents, I understand this is a conservative political show. I get that there is a preaching to the choir effect, but you're a very good choir. I love you. You guys are very knowledgeable. I read your comments. I get your emails. You guys are the best. But I say to liberals who do tune in, I get the Media Matters a-holes, they tune in every day. They always have some dumbass comment about the show. I'm asking you, you liberal, progressive, socialist commies, you're all the same.
18:23Again, notice I didn't throw in all Democrats. There's some, you know, coal miners in West Virginia who may be legacy Democrats from their parents. They love America too. That's not these people, okay? That's not these people. Why are you so freaking stupid? How do you keep falling for this shit? How? I want to take a quick break, but I want to get to this first. This is really important. Cue up that Alicia Keys thing. Do you notice the overwhelming majority of entertainers out there, Hollywood singers, even a lot of country people? Ask John Rich. Johnny Rich, ask John Rich how many country singers have gone woke.
19:06A lot. Not all of them, but country? Yes. Even country singers. These entertainers are morons. they don't know anything and yet people take their political advice from people like alicia keys alicia you're a great singer i don't deny your talent i can't sing at all and not even a little bit you know i'm off key even with like bedtime lullabies okay you're very talented you also know jack shit about politics and jack left town later so you're left with shit that you don't know anything how do i know that because she advertises she doesn't know anything she put this video together and being praised by a bunch of liberals who chose stupid they chose stupid and she's like oh my gosh it's been a hundred years and women still don't have right what rights do you not have what dear women in the chat please enlighten me brother dan if you're a liberal woman in the chat your name is like powwow chow or something or high cheekbones in the chat whatever it is enlighten me as to what rights women don't have please now if you're a moron and stupid as a choice you listen to this idiot you believe you think because she's a good singer that she has any knowledge about anything else i'm going to get into this in a little bit with a clip here from constantine kissin this is the biggest mistake dopey liberals who choose stupid me Ready?
20:35Ready? Write this down. They don't understand the granular effect of knowledge. I'll give you an extreme example. A brain surgeon who focuses on a specific area of the brain. This guy could be the world's preeminent brain surgeon. If you have a tumor in, you have like Wernicke's area, whatever, you go to this guy, Dr. Joey Bag of Donuts. if you need knee surgery, you don't go to this guy. He's never done it. But he's a surgeon. He's brilliant. He's got an IQ of 4 ,000. He's never done knee surgery. He doesn't know anything about it. I got a friend. He's an orthodontist. Many of you know who he is.
21:19One of my best buds, man. I asked him one time, could you do a root canal still? He goes, dude, I haven't done a root canal since I got out of medical school or dental school 25 years ago. He goes, the answer is no. But you're a dentist. But he's the best orthodontist around. Knowledge is granular. Alicia Keys may know a ton about playing the piano. She doesn't know shit about the Constitution, as evidenced by this video. Check this out. You know that it's been 100 years since the Equal Rights Amendment was first introduced. And now, still, women don't have an explicit guarantee to equal rights under the U.S.
21:58Constitution. Can you believe that? I couldn't even believe that was real. I mean, women are not asking for special rights, just equal rights. Any comment? Has she never heard of the equal protection?
22:17I can't with these idiots. I love when she goes, do you see the part Justin at the end where she goes, I can't believe this, man. You can't believe it because it's not true. You can't believe it because it's, you can't believe because there's no such thing you didn't actually what was that from oh yes Frank Fugazi 8-8 Frank Fugazi we haven't done a shout out to Fugazi in a long time Fugazi's in the chat remember Fugazi 8-8 Trump flew the flag and it was a sign to Heil Hitler I can't believe no one no one's talking about it because it's not real you stupid ass alicia keys i can't believe this man because it's not real oh there it is we haven't had that in a while tearing it up in the chat this is bringing back memories of my pre-fbi days man fagasy anita anita you still have the fagasy head anita in the chat someone look out for anita's car anita just text me you still we gave you the fagasy head my last show before I left yeah Anita you gotta get us that thing back for August 8th it's Fagasy Day on the show Jasmine you gotta set that up we need a full Anita you can come here on 8-8 you know where the studio is come here and we'll do an honorary transfer back what do you think what do you think in the chat McGroins we do a formal can we do a ceremony like a Fagasy transfer ceremony
24:01but listen back to my point you want to know why your liberal neighbors are so stupid because they don't understand the granular effect this chat's going crazy i can see it out of the corner of my eye they don't understand the granular effect of knowledge they think because your neighbor's a financial advisor that he's good at changing your oil and then he forgets to put the oil plug back in the pan your engine seizes up and what happened dude you made me so much money on financial advice you know shit you don't know anything about your engine alicia key is a talented singer clearly she understands uh the constitution equal rights due process no she doesn't she knows nothing and that's why your stupid neighbor knows nothing too stupid is a choice oh yeah they do no women do not have to register for the u.s draft selective search.
24:53Yeah, that's a special, special, right? She doesn't even know that. She's never even thought to look that up. This is why I'm telling you with the Doomer Grifter psyops going on in the pretend fake MAGA movement, that's not real. This is what they want. They want you to believe because someone's got a podcast or a show that all of a sudden they're an expert on criminal trial procedures. This is how you get sucked into the liberal vortex of stupid. You know what he's thinking right now? You know what else is stupid? I had to do it for him. Not having your car insured. That's stupid. That's good, right?
25:33I was, were you thinking that? He was. He was stupid's a choice. He just said that. You know what's really dumb? Not having your car insured. That's a bad choice. That's what he's thinking. P1s, you get that. If you know Guy, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Hey, I rely on my car for everything. Commuting, quick errands, even those family getaways, use it all the time. So when something's not working right, it's a huge problem. The last thing you need on your summer travel budget is spending all your vacation money on like a multi-thousand dollar car repair you didn't expect. It's a huge hassle.
26:10It throws the whole routine out of balance. I've been there. You know what it's like? You hear a weird noise. You're like, here we go. You get the bill. You're like, there goes summer vacation. You don't need that. There's a way to stop that, however. CarShield, we love this company. They've been with us a long time. CarShield helps protect you from those surprise expenses.

Liberals, progressive socialists and commies don't. I promise you anyone falling in this socialist trap to the young people who listen to my show who listen, I get it. You're early in your life. It sounds appealing. Government's going to give people free stuff. I'm not mad at you. I'm not one of these like another boomers, whatever. Boomers my ass. Like, I'm just, you know, I lived a life too. You know what I'm saying?
28:28But I get it's appealing to listen to this stuff, but I can promise you this. Socialism promises you nothing more than broken promises. I said on Will Cain's excellent show on Fox yesterday, I hope you saw the appearance. Socialism has a 100 % success rate of failing. And I'm going to tell you why, and it's not complicated. Ladies and gentlemen, human beings are rational maximizers. Listen, beam in, missile lock, okay? Super important.
Read the full transcript
28:58human beings are rational maximizers they are there and designed by nature to take care of themselves and their family first there is no rational logic-based reason-based human being on planet earth who is going to take care of their neighbor's kids before their own there isn't There is not. It doesn't happen. When people work to provide assets, money, food and housing for their family, they do not want to give those assets away to other people. They will make the sacrifice for a collective good and pay for police and fire because they know they can't pay for it by themselves. But they're not going to give away half their money and they're certainly not going to let the government take it all.
29:51that is why this thing always fails. People talk about sharing and socialism, about sharing. If you wanted to do that so badly and sharing is such a popular, great idea, then why does the government have to force it and nationalize everything? Here is the excellent, fantastic Secretary of State National Security Advisor Marco Rubio. This video is from 2020. It doesn't matter. it should be played again on loop right now if anyone understands what socialism really is the theft of your earned income food your home and everything by the government it's rubio who grew up in the cuban community in south florida you think socialism is a great idea here's a challenge i put this out on twitter once justin how do you think this will work out dear socialist progressive liberals and commies go down to a cuban cafe in south florida i'm down to Miami a lot.
30:44Sit down and tell people how much you love Castro and socialism. Bring security. Because I don't want to be responsible. I don't want to be... Justin, am I right? Bring security. I got some recommendations for you. The only people who love socialism are people who don't know what it is or lie about it. Here's Rubio about the promise of broken promises in socialism. Check this out. Democratic socialism sounds benign, but at the core of democratic socialism is Marxism. And at the core of Marxism is this fake offer that if you turn over more of your individual freedom, we're going to provide you security.
31:22We're going to provide you free health care. We're going to provide you free education. But the problem is that when they can't deliver on it or when you're not happy with it, you don't get your freedoms back. And by freedoms, I don't just mean elections. I'm talking about the right to choose your own doctor, the right to make health care decisions for yourself, what your kids learn in school, what schools they go to. All that stuff you lose control over and you don't get it back just because the security they promised you didn't happen. So that's what we're on the verge of having to decide here in this country.
31:49It's a lot. It's a reason why people flee countries that have this stuff. It's a big deal for America. And I hope people start waking up to that reality. All right. Anita texted me. She's in the Figuezy transfer. He's not kidding. Ladies and gentlemen, even if you're a liberal and you don't like Marco Rubio, that's Guy's video. the other day. Nice. They don't tell me that until the show comes up. I like that video too. Even if you hate Rubio, you're a leftist, progressive, commie, fake, socialist loser like Bernie Sanders making powwow chow with Liz. Hey, howdy, want a beer? Pants on the beer.
32:22Remember that? Dumb video. Remember Elizabeth Warren? Fake, phony, freaking fraud losers. Millionaire Bernie Sanders. What does he got, like three houses? Why do you fly private jet? I don't want to sit with the losers on the line of, what the Remember that video we played yesterday? Watch yesterday's show. Brett Baer. Hey, Bernie, you're fighting the oligarchy flying around the country in private jets. What do you think? I'm going to sit there with the smelly people on the line in the airport. What? Bro, bro, you're fighting the oligarchy on a private jet? Stop being stupid and falling for these losers.
32:58At least Rubio is sincere. Go back to my point I made before. There he is, this dipshit. I don't want to sit on the line with the losers. Rubio has experience. Rubio is the neurosurgeon I talked about before who's actually operated on like Broca's area. He understands the brain of socialism because he lives and was raised in the Cuban community that were raised in the horrors of socialism. Why would you listen to this old white dude and his fake Indian Pocahontas powwow chow friend who have no freaking idea what socialism is about. He flies on private jets and he's a millionaire. Does that not bother you?
33:44I'm a Bernie bro. You're an idiot, bro. You're an imbecile, bro.
33:53Knowledge is granular. Why does socialism not work? because government has absolutely no idea what you need or want. There's a knowledge problem in socialism. It's been described by Friedrich Hayek, Joseph Schumpeter, the great thinkers, Thomas Sowell, Milton Friedman, Walter Williams, great economic thinkers of our time and a time past. Adam Smith. A sharing economy doesn't work, ladies and gentlemen, because people don't, by nature, want to share outside of, like, charity and maybe you give 5 % of your income away. People do not want to give away their stuff to someone else. They just don't.
34:45You can live with it or you can get burned by it. Even if you wanted to do that And you give your stuff All your stuff You believe in social media Here's all my stuff My money, my car, my computer The government doesn't even know who needs it Because the government is by nature stupid It has a knowledge problem There's no incentive for the government To get to know you Here's Constantine Kissin In a fantastic video bookmark this part of the show. This guy really understands the horrors of socialism. Why? This is a really great show. I want you to listen to him explain the knowledge problem a little more eloquently than I just did.
35:31This is why government, no matter how many high IQ people work in government, will always be dumber. I'll take a thousand plumbers over anyone in the government any day of the week. They're much smarter than the idiots in the bureaucracy. Check this out. Statistically speaking, a lot of people are stupid. Yeah. Right. It's like George Carlin, who I mentioned earlier, he had a joke about this. He said, think how stupid the average person is. Now imagine half of them are even more stupid than that. Right. But nonetheless, you have to also recognize that just because someone doesn't have an IQ of 150 and a PhD does not mean that they're incapable of knowing the circumstances of their own life better than you.
36:14You don't need to have a high IQ or university education to know that your wages are being driven down because lots of low skilled people have come from another country who are now doing the same job as you. You don't have to be super clever to do that. So just because people don't talk well or even if they're not actually that clever does not mean that their opinion is invalid. Their opinion may well be more valid than yours if they're talking about something in which they have actually a direct stake. They have skin in the game. Thank you, Constantine Kissin. Give me the, you know, a roughneck or a wildcatter in a Pennsylvania natural gas field.
37:01Anywhere in that whole Marcellus play up there. I want to hear from them about the natural gas business I don't want to hear from Bernie Sanders You think Bernie said, oh, natural gas, what's that? It comes out of my ass No, bro With natural gas, hydraulic fracturing You fracture rock, the gas Why would I listen to Pow Wow Chow? She doesn't even know how to cook Pow Wow Chow She just made that up, she's not even an expert on that I'm gonna go to a chef I know a chef, he's a really good guy I'm gonna ask him to cook up the powwow chow He's not even Indian I'm not gonna ask this woman Because she's not an Indian either This show is really off the rails I'm sorry, I'm in a mood today Well, I'm not really sorry This guy, Robert Reich You want him, remember this dude?
37:58With the video about how great social security is so great it's like it's going bankrupt it's awesome so what happens when you give your money to idiots in the government
38:11you want to see two morons here's two liberal progressive socialist commies all the same thing here they are debating each other not even debating each other kissing each other's ass basically about the just wonderful benefits and gifts of socialism how fantastic socialism is. But I want you to pay attention before this little video drop here. This is, the limitation of socialism is what I said to you before. People do not want to share their stuff with other people. They want to take care of their own families first. Period. End of story. It's not hard to figure out. Okay? If liberals really wanted to share their stuff, they'd share it and they don't.
38:54Liberals do everything they can to avoid paying taxes. Just go look up the Clintons And all the liberals with tax problems Just put up liberals who've had tax problems Ask anyone Here's these two arguing with each other About how socialism It's just great, it's just social It's just like sharing And then nothing but seconds later They go, let's just nationalize it If everybody wanted to share everything Why would you need to nationalize it? Because people don't want to share their stuff with the government That's why you have to steal it or nationalize it means giving it up to the nation state.
39:29That's what that means. These two idiots, they don't even understand that. Oh, it's nothing but sharing. But then when you don't want to share, we'll just steal it because nobody wants to share. Great video for all the wrong reasons. Check this out. The opposite of socialism is Margaret Thatcher saying there is no society. So that was, I wanted to do a book. I wanted to call it, you know, putting the social back into socialism. It's like, lose the ism. It's like the isms are always about Judaism. It's like once it's an ism, you're fucked, right? You know, it's locked down. But once it's just, you know, social, that sounds fine to me.
40:06Do you want to be social? Yeah, let's be social. So let's meet your neighbors, share shit with them. What's crazy is you hear socialism and you immediately think of a college class or a book you have to read. It's really easy. It's like tax the rich, including me, nationalize key industries, nationalize health care. And that's kind of it. Holy Moses, how are people falling for this dumbass bullshit? Does that guy on the left? whatever everything's backwards in my mind the dude with the red shirt does he not realize he just contradicted himself in the same interview the one guy's like yeah bro socialism share with your neighbor you can do that bro bro you can do what's that guy's name doug bag of donuts or something one guy's doug one guy's adam i don't even care don't even It doesn't matter.
41:16Dougie, hey, Dougie. Doug, you can share your shit. Why don't you just do it? Why do you need us to tell you? Go do it. Jasmine, we give money to charity, right? Yeah. Why do we do it? We force Jasmine? Has the Martin County Sheriff ever threatened to arrest us for not giving? No, he has not, correct? So why do we do it? Because it's a good thing to do. Jasmine, she's like, goodness of your heart. She's such a nice lady, Jen. I have a negative boner but I never seen anything like it Why do the liberals You love government it's like charity it's great Governments are benevolent force in your life You said it you told us Big government is good I love big government Big bear hug for big government Sharing is caring We do it just like Fat Barney The dinosaur looked like that guy in a video Fat Barney go get Fat Barney Share your shit Dougie Doug Dougie just share your shit no one's stopping you But you won't.
42:13And the other guy knows it. So notice how he says, oh, just nationalize everything. Why would you need to nationalize it if socialism is so great and you can share stuff? Why? Why would you need that? Why would you need to do that? Let me tell you something. I don't even share a lot of stuff with my own crew here. I got these protein bars in the fridge. And you know where I'm going with this, right? And I'm dead serious because they're mine and they're very specific. Jasmine wrote on the box, for Dan only. I'm sorry, they're mine. You want your protein? You can buy your own. What am I, a mean guy?
42:44Maybe. Well, I pay these guys. They work here. I don't need you to eat my freaking protein bars. At least I'm not a hypocrite. I'm a capitalist. I bought my own protein bar. You can buy your own too. Dougie Doug. Doug A. Doug, just share your shit. Just share it, bro. Nobody's stopping you. Why do you need the other guy, Barney the Dinosaur, to your right there? Why do you need him to tell you to nationalize it? Because you're all full of shit. young men and ladies out there. I told you, I love you guys. I get it how people fall for this stuff. I'm not mad at you. Nobody should be mad at you. We're all, when you're young, you're like, you got a big heart.
43:22You want to help people. I love that about you. I love that you think government is charity. I don't like the connection, but I like the fact that you are really seeking a better tomorrow. Unfortunately, you think government's the answer when it's actually a curse. Government is just stealing your stuff and flushing it down a toilet bowl and making people's lives miserable. You financing it is making people's lives miserable. And that's why liberals do everything they can to hire accounts and not pay more taxes because they quietly know, despite telling you publicly that government's the answer to all your problems, that government's actually the cause of all your problems.
43:59Let's share. Doggy, share your stuff, bro. Send us the receipts. Take a TikTok video a little bit. Haley can help you. She's great on TikTok. She does all these crazy videos. I'm like, it's awesome. whatever Haley come over and film me go over to your neighbor sharing it's Carrie bring fat Barney the dinosaur with you go over take that dude next to you share all your shit be like hey neighbor hey Johnny Smith it's Dougie bag of donuts I'm here with a big sack of cash why because it's all about sharing the neighbor's gonna be like thanks asshole take your money wait where do you share with me let's share with you you were dumb enough to give me your money moron why do you think we have contract law in the United States.
44:39The answer is because if you give people, not all, but many people, the opportunity to F you over in a deal, they will. And you think, oh, we're just going to share it. Yeah, okay. How do you idiots on the left keep falling for this?
44:55You want to know why your kids, a lot of you out there are very concerned. I get this email. Gosh, if I got one of these, I've gotten a thousand. Dan, a lot of people have emails from the old, but we still get some of them. I get this a lot. People say, Dan, I'm sending my kid to college. What do I do? Folks, I got to tell you, I don't like to bring things up. I don't have a good answer for you. I have an answer, but not a good one. You have got to drill into their heads before they get there. What they call like the British debating. You know what the British debating method is? I think it's called that one.
45:31When you're debating someone and you tell the audience in advance what the guy or woman you're debating is going to say, you're like, my opponent here is a liberal and they're going to say that the rich don't pay any taxes. However, if you look at the number of taxes, the percentage, the richest 1 % of Americans pay 38.4 % of the tax. Then what happens? The dumbass on the other side of stage who's about to say liberals, excuse me, wealthy people don't pay any taxes, can't say it because you just diffused it before the bomb went off. That is the only way to protect your kids against the rages of psychopathy in academia.
46:08You have to tell them you're going to be told this. You're going to be told the United States is a uniquely horrible country. We're the only country to do this. We're an imperial, we're an empire. Here's the right answer. It's the only way. It's work, but it's the only way. Work with my daughter, thankfully she goes to a pretty good school. It's the only way. Or else you're going to see this. This was a hat tip. I saw this was put together. This is a montage of headlines about academia. I saw yesterday on X. I just want you to see some of this. This is what your kids are walking into. You want to know why your kids think the religion of socialism that has killed, murdered, and starved hundreds of millions of people and is completely contradictory to every facet of human nature still sticks with young kids?
47:00This is what they're – look at these headlines. USC professor calls for a holocaust against white people. Professor behind white genocide tweet says he has university support. Rutgers lecturer tweeted about shooting white people. This goes on, by the way, forever. We got to take these mother effers out. John Eric Williams, Trinity College professor. Whiteness is terrorism. Folks, this goes on and on and on.
47:28It is your job to use the debating method I told you about and interdict these bullshit, dangerous, destructive talking points before they make your way into your kid's neuronal matter and start to calcify in the brain. It's your job. I did it with my kids. I do it every day. Every opportunity I have to tell my oldest daughter and my youngest daughter and teach teach them a lesson about government theft, the dangers of government, the dangers of centralized power. I take it. You should too. Look at these, folks, this goes on. What is the X account with this? Because you can look at this, this thing goes on forever.
48:07You think, oh, those are just five headlines. There's like 100 headlines in this thing. This is what your kids are walking into. Whiteness is terrorism. We got to take those motherfuckers. Ow, I'm trying to stop. It's not really working too well. Sorry. All right, let me take a quick break because I do want to talk. I had a line to show today about the Trump accounts. I just want to tell you quick why the matter is. I got to get into the Supreme Court thing because there's something people are missing. There was a case out there that like, kind of like given the birthright citizenship and everything else, it slid under the radar, but it's a really important case because it's what I warned you about during my time there at the FBI about surveillance technology.
48:46The founders, the founding fathers never saw this stuff coming. It's still going, this stuff, by the way. Just how crazy this is. Hey, let me tell you something. When you sign your insurance policy for some brokers, that's it. That's the finish line. You get a handshake. They get their commission. Everybody's done. Well, that's not how your business runs.

50:19supershore.com slash Bungito. Thank you, Supershore. So I want to get to this quick because the Trump accounts came out yesterday. And ladies and gentlemen, this is going to be, I said this to you yesterday, please red flags in the chat. I'm looking out of the corner of my eye. Flag it up in the chat. Mark yesterday's show, mark the point in today's show because I promise you I'm right on this. I got a good batting percentage on this. I'm telling you the left is going to lose their minds soon about these Trump accounts. flags I see them there the red flags stand right out why are they going to lose their minds the left is going to lose their minds because now you have a bunch of people who are going to be fully invested in what the capitalist economy can do and you're going to see it and it's going to be as Constantine Kissin before talked about it's skin in the game so yes there is a government government component to this.
51:19There's no doubt about it. The government is going to subsidize some of these accounts. But what I would say to you is I would rather it all be private because then you have more skin in the game, meaning you did it and you invest. However, because you're just giving money to the government to give to other people. The system now, social security. I know this offends some people. I'm sorry. I'm not seniors. I love you. You deserve everything you got. You built this country. You fought in World War Two, fought in Vietnam. You grew up in a much harder country. My grandmother grew up in the, my grandparents in the Great Depression.
51:51I love you. This is not a knock on anybody, please. I hate when people do that. Bayou Mary's all this other shit. I'm just telling you, like you gave your money to the government for social security and they spent it. That's just a fact. There's no money there. The IOUs are fake. They spend your money. It's a generational Ponzi scheme. It just is. And lying to people about it's not going to do any good. So at least now you have a system where the government doesn't control the money. They give the money to these kids when they're born and the money is in their account. They control it. The government can't touch it and spend it.
52:22It's a positive step. It's definitely a big leap forward from the old system where you give your money to the government and they just waste it and spend it on other stuff. Here's this guy, Mike Solano, in a tweet talking about exactly how the libs are about to lose their mind because people on Social Security who in about 10 years are going to start getting benefits decreases because the government spent all your money and even the fake IOUs are running out, are going to look at some of these younger kids in 10 years whose thousand dollars is compounded into five and 10 and others. And they're not even seniors yet.
52:55And they're going to be like, wow, if I just would have kept my own money, I would have done a lot better. Solano says the Trump accounts are not just an extremely cool, nice to have, but potentially the answer to the boomer social security Ponzi. I really hope Democrats can abandon the TDS for however long it takes to educate their true believers about this opportunity. Mike, love you, but you know they won't. I think he's being sarcastic. You know they won't. Why would the Democrats get in on a program that would actually make these children money and guarantee their retirement? I thought that was the point of Social Security.
53:28Please rewind to the beginning of the show. Well, you can't right now because the show is live. But if you're listening on demand, please go back to the beginning. What did I say about the Democrats? they don't care about your retirement they don't care about social security they care about power why does old school bankrupt social security why is that their hill to die on despite the fact the government can just give you the money to keep yourself because they control it power power power power that's all they care about they do not give a damn about you your retirement anything else they care about controlling you and the second the money you give to the government taxes goes back to you in a form of this thousand dollar payment to your child and you control it the democrats are about to suck you want to talk about a full diaper effect watch what happens when these accounts over 10 15 years start to explode they are going to go freaking bananas And you know what's pissing them off even more?
54:35That all these fake phony Democrats like Dougie Doug and Barney the Dinosaur guy who say they want to share all their money with everyone, they're not doing shit. I guarantee you he's not bringing bags of money over to his neighbor to share with them. Why not? I thought you said it was all about sharing. Yet you get free market guys like Michael Dell, who owns Dell Computers, who yesterday's at the White House gives away 6.2 billion dollars to kids he doesn't even know what what about fat dinosaur guy and Dougie Doug what are you laughing about why don't they do it why don't they give away 6 billion dollars the answer is because they're phonies they're fakes go buy a Dell computer I'm serious, 6 billion, not million folks as I said on Will Cain's show yesterday this isn't Austin Powell, million billion with a B by any measure, this is generous I don't care how rich you are 6 billion dollars to kids he doesn't even know here's a minute Adele talking, this drives liberals crazy, because they told you all these free market capitalists are all greedy really, when did you give away 6 billion dollars when did Barney the fat dinosaur guy and Dougie Doug give it away.
55:56The answer is never. Check this out. You know, 42 years ago, I started a company in my dorm room with a thousand dollars. And today, every newborn American child will start their life with a thousand dollars invested in America's greatest companies compounding for the future. But Susan and I didn't want the children that were born just before to be completely left out. So we are contributing$6.25 billion,$250 to 25 million eligible American children born between the ages of 2016 and 2024, invested in America's greatest companies for their future, for their tuition, for down payments, for startup capital, for a business.
56:48and to every business leader out there who hasn't already joined us, please join us. I just want to say to Michael Dell, thank you. I have a couple Dell computers. I love them. Go buy a Dell. Six billion dollars, folks. Hey, by the way, I want to enjoy, I love the chat, but you guys are part of the show too. You know, we don't take callers, but the chat's the call box, right? DJ Smith 1960, I think it was. Looked at him, guys. He made a comment. I just want to address it because it's really important because this is every time I bring up social security, I get some iteration of these exact words.
57:23DJ, I'm not saying this. He commented in the chat. If you can find it, guys, put up on the screen. He said something like, Dan, I love you, bro. But social security was not an option. I know. Guys, please listen. Serious missile lock here because I don't know what. I'm not blaming you. I'm 51. I'm no spring chicken either. I have no I'm not anticipating getting a social security check at all however I fully support listen to me it is not your fault you are correct it is not an opposite it was a poorly designed program here it is DJ 1960 I got that right DJ Smith 1960 you were acting like we had a choice I am not DJ love you too bro I mean it I am not I've said the opposite have I not the government stole your money and spent it.
58:18I'm telling you, if we don't recognize the problem, you're going to go to the bank with no money. You can say all you want, like, well, I gave the bank my money in a deposit. It's not there. We can fix the problem of the bank, or we can ignore it and all show up one day in a bank run and find out you get nothing. DJ, we can fix it. There's time. That's what Solano's tweet was about. That these$1 ,000 accounts may take the pressure off future generations and may leave money, hopefully, to take care of seniors now. We've got to fix it. You did have your money stolen. And we as a group of people are not going to let a group of 70, 80-year-old, 90-year-old Americans, listen to me, DJ, who busted their ass for America, you guys.
59:06I don't know how old you are, but you did. You grew up much harder than we did. We're not going to let you Let this, not you fail We're not going to let the government fail you We're not, we're not There is a bipartisan consensus That we have to save this system somehow Period
59:24I'm just simply passing on to you That there's a problem If you choose to ignore it You're just going to get kicked in the balls I'm actually out there looking for solutions Here this program is one of them Here's Jenny Johnson from Franklin Templeton On CNBC yesterday Ladies and gentlemen, the miracle of compound interest is real You're going to put this$1 ,000 If you put$1 ,000 in there If the government seeds it with$1 ,000 And it's a lot of money,$1 ,000 Let's be honest However, if you can spare it And not just these Trump accounts But any investment account for kids If you put$1 ,000 in there From the day they're born I want you to listen to Jenny Johnson And Franklin Templeton Simple math about what would happen to that money in contrast to the money they promised you with Social Security that they already spent.
1:00:15Listen to this. The most important investment decision a person can make is not, did you pick the right index? Did you pick the right stock? It's getting in the market. And what the Trump account does is it broadens the capability of people to have access to the market. So let me put that in the power of compounding If you invest$5 ,000 a year,$1 ,000 a year for 10 years at age 20, when you retire at 60, you will have more money than a person who starts to invest at age 30 and invest the same amount per year for 30 years. That's the power of compounding. And so if you look at what the Trump accounts were now starting at birth and being able to compound, I think it's incredibly powerful.
1:01:02And then the second thing is, it actually, what has made this country great? What's made this country great is that we have capital markets that fund innovation. We're the most innovative country in the world. And now we can broaden the participation. And so that individuals will be able to look at it and say, hey, I'm an owner of that really exciting company. And I think that that right there is, you know, success. Folks, Econ 101, you take$1 ,000 and invest it in a bunch of companies. Some may fail. The majority won't. That's why the United States economy keeps growing. You know, a lot of companies don't fail and go 100, 1 ,000, a million X.
1:01:43If you invested in Amazon when they sold one book, you're up quite a bit. It's because people figure out ways to take what we used to call in psychology, the spontaneous recombination of discriminated operands. That's a fancy way of saying creativity. Someone out there a long time ago figured out that if you move a wind turbine at a certain speed, you can generate an electrical current with just metal and the metal necessary for that and basically some wiring. Somebody figured the wiring and the metal are worth peanuts. They're worth nothing. Yet thousands of dollars a day of electricity are generated from what was almost worthless before.
1:02:32your money that whatever, say it costs$1 ,000 to build a small winter. I'm just throwing around numbers. I'd probably be more than that, but you get the point. And then the thing generates$1 ,000 a day in electricity. Again, just for the sake of round numbers, your money is going to grow. But Dan, I didn't invest in a company. No, you invested in the market that invested in the company instead of giving social security money to the government where they just go out and spend it. They're not investing in anything. this is the fix you control your money that's the fix i have to get to this this is really important folks i was out supreme court massive rulings i'm sitting out there uh for those i didn't tell i was out i took a little uh i'm not a big island vacation guy i didn't do a huge weekend update yesterday because i had a lot to get to uh i i like history i like like taking tours but you know not some of the people i go with they're cool with it they like it too but they like the beach so we went down to bahamas like beautiful place thank you to the country great host you know uh we're down at harbor island was amazing ran into a bunch of people but i'm sitting there on uh on this boat like kind of chilling a little bit and all these supreme court cases are happening i'm like how are you not on the air i swear i wanted to do like an emergency show from my phone but i thought it'd be a little weird even have like a shirt for You know, so all this stuff went down.
1:03:57First, just a quick clip, because I want to give you some thoughts on this mail-in balloting. It's really important. There's and it relates to the soccer game as mail-in balloting with the soccer game. It does. Here's a quick Fox clip. Many of you know, we lost this case five for I think this was the second was a bad second worst decision. The birthright citizenship was just terrible. It's a national security problem. Check this out. The U.S. Supreme Court decision is now in on a challenge led by Republicans to late arriving ballots in elections. This is not a win for Republicans who are challenging this.
1:04:32Mississippi has a state law which allows ballots to be counted, mail-in ballots after Election Day. If they come in, they're postmarked and meet the state requirements. But it is a 5-4 loss for Republicans and an interesting cobbling together of who wrote on this. Justice Barrett wrote the opinion. Justice Roberts joined her along with Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson. So those five stuck together on this. The dissent comes from Justice Alito. Thomas Gorsuch and Kavanaugh joined him. And essentially what the majority said is that these federal statutes setting Election Day don't prescribe or they don't stand in conflict with states that want to say, OK, we have a procedure to count ballots after Election Day.
1:05:11Justice Alito writing for the dissent says, Today's decision is inconsistent with the terms of the Election Day statutes, contemporary election law principles, two centuries of historical practice and the case law on the question presented. Folks, there's an obvious problem with this ruling now that creates almost a semi perpetual election day. Number one, our Constitution specifies an election day, not an election season. And secondly, you don't need to be a lawyer. Again, the knowledge is granular effect. However, in this case, it's fairly obvious that the majority in the case that ruled that these mail-in ballots don't have to come in by election day said, well, the election's not over on election day.
1:05:58It's over when voting is complete. folks voting is complete when the people who designed the contest i.e. election say it's complete correct what does that have to do with the soccer game i saw this i mean think of this morning it's like 10 minutes before the show i'm doing my air squats 20 this morning i felt good as you can tell i'm in a mood and i see on twitter they're like the u.s soccer team didn't lose i'm like really i watched the game it was 4-1 they're like nah la's still counting i'm like that's a good one but then i'm thinking like the supreme court ruling is the same thing right why is the soccer game over because fifa has said after 90 minutes plus extra time which by the way nobody knows it's like this is a total nate bargatsky tweet somewhere or a segment on snl How do you know how much extra time?
1:06:56I don't know. I think they just guessed. However, there is an extra time limit. Like, that's over. And once it's done, it's done. So the game's over. There's no LA-Seattle recount. That's it. Game's done. There's no extra, extra time. The game is complete and the contest is over when the rules say it's over. The rules say election day. That's when it's over. they lawyered this thing to death it's over when voting's complete okay what if I want to vote two months later what if I change my mind no seriously what if I change my mind you know what I don't like Nazi tattoo guy who was caught spanking his in the port-a-john I don't like I don't like that he got caught again he was at a concert and they caught him and oh my god what are you doing hold on I'm occupied I want to change my vote.
1:07:53That's fine. Vote. The contest rules say you can. We have a contest going on. We have rules. Voting is complete when the contest rules say it's complete on election day.
1:08:13Birthright citizenship, disaster. folks what's to stop a bunch of communist party ccp members from taking a cruise ship over illegally like docking at an american port while they're all pregnant having their children there while the juror and then all of a sudden you've got a bunch of anchor babies on keep in mind this is not about the birthright citizenship ship case despite what liberals want to tell you. This is not about U.S. citizens, people in the country legally. That's not what this is about. It's about political versus territorial jurisdiction. It is ridiculous to suggest anyone born here under any circumstances at any time outside of like diplomats and that they're all of a sudden given citizenship to the country and all the benefits.
1:09:03It's outrageous. one more i wanted to talk about though was this geofencing rule i warned you about this when i came back from the fbi ever see point break was that get me two i was thinking i'm getting hungry this geofencing thing i bet you you probably you probably think i'm like against this right so put up that wall street journal article if you The Supreme Court ruled that if you're going to put a basically geofence around, that there is a reasonable expectation of privacy. In other words, if your cell phone number is around where a bank is robbed, that there should be some kind of judicial process before everybody gets roped into it.
1:09:50You're probably thinking, oh, well, you were a law guy, law man or whatever. You probably are against. No, I think having to get a warrant is a great idea. I know it's going to create a process, but folks, I don't think the founders planned for all this technology. If they would, they would have invented it themselves. At some point, there's got to be a limit on what government can do before they find out where you will be. Oh, well, he's in public anyway. Yeah, but he's not in public with a surveillance device. That's different. I support that. This surveillance technology is getting very dangerous.
1:10:24There have got to be very good, strong prescribers. No one's saying, by the way, you can't get a geofence around to find out what cell phones were in the area of bankers. You just got to go to a court and say why. It's not hard. Finally, the unitary executive. Thankfully, great call by the Supreme Court on this one, the FTC ruling. Folks, the president can hire and fire who he wants. Federal Reserve got a pass on this. I don't know why that happened. I don't think they're particularly special. However, a landmark decision could transform the government. Supreme Court voted to allow Trump to remove a Democrat mayor or the FTC for policy reasons.
1:10:59Yeah, no kidding. The president is the chief executive. Imagine being the chief executive, the CEO of a company that sells like fat Barney costumes. And you got a guy one time who makes the Barney the wrong color or something. You got to fire these people. What kind of CEO can't fire his people? This was common sense. So we're back to the powers vested in the president, unitary executive theory. And that's a good thing. That was a good ruling. So I wanted to comment while I was away on vacation, but I really didn't have the proper attire for it at all. Totally unprepared. That's why I wasn't on Fox last week either.
1:11:30They asked me, I'm like, damn it, I don't even have anything. Hope you saw me on Will Cain yesterday. We have the comment of the day. You guys pick, who is it today?
