The FBI's Worst Nightmare CONFIRMED (Ep.145) · V

0:00
Speaker 1: Good morning and welcome to Bongina Report Early Edition. Happy Friday.
0:04
Speaker 1: America loses to Canada in the Four Nations Hockey Tournament.
0:09
Speaker 2: J.D.
0:10
Speaker 1: Vance crushes neoliberalism in one epic tweet. A 74-year-old Scottish
0:15
Speaker 1: woman is arrested outside an abortion clinic for silently holding
0:20
Speaker 1: a sign. DOT Secretary Sean Duffy, my dad, announces a
0:24
Speaker 1: federal investigation into California's failed high-speed rail project. Jasmine Crockett
0:31
Speaker 1: is officially dumber than AOC. Kash Patel is confirmed as
0:34
Speaker 1: FBI director. And Catholics call for disclosure on whether the
0:39
Speaker 1: Obama administration helped install Pope Francis. All this on Bongina Report,
0:45
Speaker 1: early edition. So Team USA did lose last night during
1:00
Speaker 1: the Four Nations hockey face-off. I was so hoping that
1:06
Speaker 1: they would win. It was the closest game ever. It
1:08
Speaker 1: was overtime. Was it one goal the first quarter, Michael? Yes.
1:17
Speaker 1: So one to one first period, two to two second period.
1:20
Speaker 1: They lost in overtime. It was an incredible game. Both
1:23
Speaker 1: sides obviously were playing really hard. Michael was like, it
1:27
Speaker 1: felt like a playoff game. Like it felt like a
1:29
Speaker 1: really serious game. And it's not that serious of a
1:31
Speaker 1: game technically, but because of all the emotions and the
1:34
Speaker 1: patriotism riding on it, people were really into this game.
1:39
Speaker 1: So it was disappointing, but at least we were able
1:41
Speaker 1: to get back at Canada for booing our national anthem
1:44
Speaker 1: last night. Take a listen to this.
1:52
Speaker 2: So you're just hearing the crowd is just like booing.
2:04
Speaker 1: It's super negative. And this is, of course, this game
2:09
Speaker 1: took place in Boston. So it was home turf. There
2:12
Speaker 1: were a lot of Americans in the stadium. This is
2:14
Speaker 1: why when America played in Montreal last week, you had
2:17
Speaker 1: a lot of booing of our national anthem by the
2:20
Speaker 1: Canadians who were overwhelmingly present in that stadium. Now, I
2:24
Speaker 1: will say it was beautiful to see so many Americans
2:27
Speaker 1: just loud and proud belt out our national anthem last night.
2:32
Speaker 1: Let's take a listen to that.
2:33
Speaker 3: How much pain can you see?
2:53
Speaker 1: This really is, hockey really is the most patriotic sport.
2:56
Speaker 1: They're the best. They're the great, I mean, I'm sorry,
2:58
Speaker 1: like the NFL where they're taking a knee every other
3:01
Speaker 1: day and racism in the end zone. I'm sick of it.
3:04
Speaker 1: This is awesome. I am loving hockey. And, you know,
3:10
Speaker 1: even though we lost last night, I did feel, and
3:13
Speaker 1: I think most of America did too, an energy, a
3:16
Speaker 1: patriotism that me personally, I've never experienced in professional sports ever.
3:21
Speaker 1: I mean, professional sports has in my memory been divisive
3:28
Speaker 1: and awful. Someone said it felt like post 9-11 where
3:31
Speaker 1: the whole country was just like finally coming together over something.
3:35
Speaker 1: President Trump, he called Team USA Before the game, he
3:39
Speaker 1: encouraged them. People were dressed like founding fathers. Molly Hemingway,
3:44
Speaker 1: my old boss, she wrote an ex of the game
3:46
Speaker 1: last week where the United States actually won against Canada.
3:50
Speaker 1: She said, by beating up the Canadian players after the
3:53
Speaker 1: booing of our national anthem at the first Four Nations game,
3:56
Speaker 1: the U.S. hockey team liberated the American sports world from
4:00
Speaker 1: eight long and awful years of self-hatred, division, and kneeling, kneeling, kneeling,
4:07
Speaker 1: for the national anthem. And she's right. It's such a radical,
4:10
Speaker 1: but beautiful shift from the hell that was this BLM
4:14
Speaker 1: 2020 America hating movement. 2020 and 2021 were some of
4:19
Speaker 1: the scariest years in my life. I think I thought,
4:21
Speaker 1: I thought I had had a conversation with Michael and
4:24
Speaker 1: my parents about this. I said, I think we're gonna
4:26
Speaker 1: have to flee the country. Like, I think we're all
4:28
Speaker 1: gonna be considered thought criminals and locked up, thrown in jail, killed,
4:31
Speaker 1: something like I was, it was terrifying to live during
4:35
Speaker 1: that time. You saw this mass censorship. People that I
4:37
Speaker 1: was friends with were booted off of social media. You
4:40
Speaker 1: had this experimental vaccine. And last night really felt like
4:45
Speaker 1: America was back, like it was Rocky IV. It was
4:49
Speaker 1: Miracle on Ice, like just the patriotism of it all,
4:52
Speaker 1: the energy around it. And that tends to happen, you know,
4:54
Speaker 1: when your president is in a walking corpse and authoritarians
4:58
Speaker 1: aren't censoring speech or forcing you to take experimental jab
5:01
Speaker 1: while flooding your country with illegals, tearing down George Washington statues.
5:07
Speaker 1: It is a really, really massive shift. So things are
5:11
Speaker 1: looking up. And even though we lost last night, I
5:13
Speaker 1: think it was a beautiful moment for America to actually
5:17
Speaker 1: come together around something. You know what else is back?
5:21
Speaker 1: Masculinity is back. And yesterday, J.D. Vance was asked about
5:25
Speaker 1: what message she has for young people as well as
5:28
Speaker 1: especially young men. And he gave a perfect answer. Take
5:31
Speaker 1: a listen to this.
5:32
Speaker 4: My message to young men is don't allow this broken
5:36
Speaker 4: culture to send you a message that you're a bad
5:39
Speaker 4: person because you're a man, because you like to tell
5:42
Speaker 4: a joke, because you like to have a beer with
5:44
Speaker 4: your friends, or because you're competitive.
5:47
Speaker 3: It's... Our....
5:51
Speaker 4: Like... The cultural message, and I think the president's and
6:02
Speaker 4: mine is the exact opposite, but our cultural message is
6:05
Speaker 4: I think that it wants to turn everybody, whether male
6:09
Speaker 4: or female, into androgynous idiots who think the same, talk
6:14
Speaker 4: the same, and act the same. We actually think God
6:17
Speaker 4: made male and female for a purpose, and we want
6:20
Speaker 4: you guys to thrive as young men and as young women,
6:24
Speaker 4: and we're going to help with our public policy to
6:27
Speaker 4: make it possible to do that.
6:30
Speaker 1: Well said. And this really is the year of the man, right?
6:33
Speaker 1: We were told this election was supposed to be all
6:36
Speaker 1: about women and abortion and reproductive rights and like the
6:41
Speaker 1: blue haired ladies standing up and screaming outside the Supreme
6:44
Speaker 1: Court about Roe v.
6:45
Speaker 3: Wade.
6:46
Speaker 1: That was what this election was supposed to be about.
6:48
Speaker 1: That's what the media was telling us. was going to
6:50
Speaker 1: be the driving force for getting people to the polls.
6:53
Speaker 1: And it turned out that that was not the case.
6:56
Speaker 1: And actually, men turned out in really high numbers to
7:00
Speaker 1: the polls. And this was the year of the man,
7:02
Speaker 1: where men finally decided, we're going to start taking back
7:04
Speaker 1: agency in this country. Now, J.D. Vance also had an
7:09
Speaker 1: epic takedown of neoliberalism. And this was, I think, An
7:17
Speaker 1: incredible tweet. I'm going to read the whole thing to
7:18
Speaker 1: you guys because it's very relevant, I think, to leading
7:22
Speaker 1: with strength but also being measured, of shaking away some
7:26
Speaker 1: of the mythos that has gotten involved in so many
7:28
Speaker 1: foreign conflicts, these never-ending wars. So he takes down neoliberal
7:33
Speaker 1: Hoover Institute fellow Niall Ferguson. And he's reacting to this
7:37
Speaker 1: Ferguson tweet. This Ferguson tweet is criticizing the Trump admin's
7:41
Speaker 1: facilitation of peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine. And remember
7:45
Speaker 1: how I said yesterday, we talked a lot about this.
7:47
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people who have projected World
7:50
Speaker 1: War II onto every single conflict for nearly the last century.
7:54
Speaker 1: Our leaders, the think tanks, the intelligence apparatus view Putin
7:58
Speaker 1: as Hitler, Ukraine as Poland. And this is completely ahistorical
8:02
Speaker 1: and a very dangerous way of thinking because it sets
8:04
Speaker 1: us up for constant escalation. Every single conflict is an
8:08
Speaker 1: existential threat to our civilization. And in fact, then we
8:11
Speaker 1: end up slowly creating civilizational suicide by continuing to involve
8:16
Speaker 1: ourselves in these wars that never end, that have no
8:18
Speaker 1: objective to end. So Niall Ferguson, he wrote this on X.
8:23
Speaker 1: He said, this will not stand, this will not stand,
8:25
Speaker 1: this aggression against Kuwait. And he's quoting George H.W. Bush
8:30
Speaker 1: on August 5th, 1990 in that quote. And then Niall writes,
8:34
Speaker 1: Future history students will be asked why this stopped being
8:38
Speaker 1: the reaction of a Republican president to the invasion of
8:41
Speaker 1: a sovereign state by a dictator. So in this instance,
8:46
Speaker 1: Ferguson is comparing Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait
8:51
Speaker 1: as the same as Putin's invasion of Ukraine. And of course,
8:54
Speaker 1: Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait has repeatedly been compared to
8:56
Speaker 1: Hitler's invasion of Poland. So you see where all this
8:59
Speaker 1: is stemming from. And what has that framework really even
9:02
Speaker 1: gotten us? The U.S. invasion of Iraq, countless U.S. soldiers
9:07
Speaker 1: and Iraqis dead, the Christian community in that region decimated.
9:11
Speaker 1: And mind you, this is one of the oldest continuous
9:13
Speaker 1: Christian populations in the world, dating back to the first
9:16
Speaker 1: century A.D. It's just gone now. It's done. Did you
9:19
Speaker 1: know that Saddam Hussein was overall very tolerant of Christians
9:23
Speaker 1: in Iraq? You know who wasn't and who isn't? ISIS.
9:28
Speaker 3: ISIS.
9:29
Speaker 1: Billions of tax dollars down the drain for that conflict.
9:33
Speaker 1: A power vacuum was created, gave way to ISIS. So
9:37
Speaker 1: here's how J.D. Vance responded to this tweet from Niall Ferguson,
9:41
Speaker 1: to this, I think, really an ideology that is highly
9:45
Speaker 1: critical of Trump's handling of this war with Ukraine. So J.D. writes,
9:51
Speaker 1: This is moralistic garbage, which is unfortunately the rhetorical currency
9:56
Speaker 1: of the globalists because they have nothing else to say.
9:59
Speaker 1: For three years, President Trump and I have made two
10:02
Speaker 1: simple arguments. First, the war wouldn't have started if President
10:05
Speaker 1: Trump was in office. Second, that neither Europe nor the
10:08
Speaker 1: Biden admin nor the Ukrainians had any pathway to victory.
10:12
Speaker 1: This was true three years ago. It was true two
10:15
Speaker 1: years ago. It was true last year, and it is
10:17
Speaker 1: true today. And for three years, the concerns of people
10:20
Speaker 1: who were obviously right were ignored. What is Niles' actual
10:23
Speaker 1: plan for Ukraine? Another aid package? Is he aware of
10:26
Speaker 1: the reality on the ground, of the numerical advantage of
10:29
Speaker 1: the Russians, of the depleted stocks of the Europeans, or
10:32
Speaker 1: their even more depleted industrial base? Instead, he quotes from
10:36
Speaker 1: a book about George H.W. Bush from a different historical
10:39
Speaker 1: period and a different conflict. That's another currency of these people.
10:43
Speaker 1: Reliance on a relevant history. Again, remember I was talking
10:45
Speaker 1: about this World War II narrative where everything is based
10:47
Speaker 1: off of that. President Trump is dealing with reality, which
10:51
Speaker 1: means dealing with facts. And here are some facts. Number one,
10:54
Speaker 1: while our Western European allies' security has benefited greatly from
10:58
Speaker 1: the generosity of the United States, they pursue domestic policies
11:01
Speaker 1: on immigration and censorship that offend the sensibilities of most
11:04
Speaker 1: Americans and defense policies that assume continued over-reliance. And we're
11:08
Speaker 1: going to get into the way they've rejected and the
11:12
Speaker 1: ethos of the West by promoting censorship. We'll talk about
11:15
Speaker 1: that later. Number two, Russians have a massive numerical advantage
11:19
Speaker 1: in manpower and weapons in Ukraine, and that advantage will
11:21
Speaker 1: persist regardless of further Western aid packages. Again, the aid
11:25
Speaker 1: is currently flowing. Number three, the U.S. retains substantial leverage
11:29
Speaker 1: over both parties to the conflict. Number four, ending the
11:32
Speaker 1: conflict requires talking to the people involved in starting and
11:35
Speaker 1: maintaining it. Number five, the conflict has placed and continues
11:39
Speaker 1: to place stress on tools of American statecraft from military
11:42
Speaker 1: stockpiles to sanctions and so much else. We believe that
11:45
Speaker 1: continued conflict is bad for Russia, bad for Ukraine, and
11:47
Speaker 1: bad for Europe, but most importantly, it is bad for
11:49
Speaker 1: the United States. Given the above facts, we must pursue
11:52
Speaker 1: peace and we must pursue it now. President Trump ran
11:54
Speaker 1: on this, we won on this, and he is right
11:56
Speaker 1: about this. It is lazy, ahistorical nonsense to attack as
12:00
Speaker 1: appeasement every acknowledgement that America's interests must account for the
12:05
Speaker 1: realities of the conflict. That interest, not moralisms or ahistorical illiteracy,
12:10
Speaker 1: will guide President Trump's policy in the weeks to come.
12:13
Speaker 1: And thank God for that. That was so incredibly well articulated.
12:19
Speaker 1: And that we're getting this from our vice president. How
12:23
Speaker 1: many times are we used to just getting these impersonal
12:25
Speaker 1: statements from our politicians? And he's just directly addressing the people. Oh,
12:30
Speaker 1: you want to talk about this mythos around World War
12:34
Speaker 1: II and Saddam Hussein and every conflict is the same.
12:38
Speaker 1: Let me just take that down. and an epic tweet.
12:40
Speaker 1: That is what J.D. Vance did. Now, Ferguson has responded
12:43
Speaker 1: to J.D. Vance, and he said something to the effect of,
12:45
Speaker 1: I just think President Trump is conceding way too much
12:48
Speaker 1: to Russia. And to that, I'll say, I think that
12:51
Speaker 1: we've been conceding way too much to Ukraine. Billions and
12:53
Speaker 1: billions of dollars. It's absurd. And I love the way J.D.
12:57
Speaker 1: laid it out. It was, again, so articulate, perfect. It
13:00
Speaker 1: was actually him, not a PR person, not a staff
13:03
Speaker 1: that helped draft and write this tweet. Here he is
13:07
Speaker 1: explicitly stating that he actually writes all his own tweets.
13:12
Speaker 4: You said yesterday, made a lot of news, bad-mouthing Trump,
13:14
Speaker 4: not a good idea for Zelensky. What's the thought process here? Well, look,
13:18
Speaker 4: I mean, President Zelensky, his country wouldn't exist without the
13:21
Speaker 4: generosity of the United States of America. So say thank you.
13:25
Speaker 4: And if you disagree with the president, pick up the
13:27
Speaker 4: phone and call him or call one of our great diplomats.
13:30
Speaker 4: Don't go on a media tour around Europe badmouthing the
13:33
Speaker 4: president of the United States, it's insulting. It's insulting to him.
13:36
Speaker 4: It's insulting to me. It's insulting to the American people.
13:38
Speaker 4: And by the way, it's stupid. All of us who
13:41
Speaker 4: know the president would tell you that badmouthing him in
13:44
Speaker 4: public is not the way to get President Trump to
13:47
Speaker 4: change his mind. So I think Zelensky needs to have
13:49
Speaker 4: some better consulting.
13:51
Speaker 1: That was a good clip. That was not the clip
13:52
Speaker 1: I had in mind. That was my bad. Not Michael's fault,
13:54
Speaker 1: you guys. Don't get mad at him in the comments.
13:56
Speaker 1: But he actually does say in that interview that I
14:00
Speaker 1: read all my own tweets. My wife told me, don't
14:02
Speaker 1: filter yourself. Don't have somebody else speak for you. You
14:06
Speaker 1: just speak for yourself. And I love that about JD.
14:09
Speaker 1: And you can tell it's him. And I love that
14:12
Speaker 1: he does it on social media, right? It's not impersonal.
14:14
Speaker 1: He's speaking directly to the people. No random impersonal statements.
14:18
Speaker 1: Biden just refused to communicate with the public at all.
14:20
Speaker 1: And JD is addressing the public where we're at, which
14:24
Speaker 1: is social media. And he's dismantling all the poisonous warmongering
14:28
Speaker 1: that has destroyed the West, destroyed this country for nearly
14:33
Speaker 1: a century. And back to what J.D. Vance was saying,
14:36
Speaker 1: I think Europe needs to, I think they need to
14:38
Speaker 1: pick a side. What side do you want in Europe?
14:41
Speaker 1: Do you continue down the path of neoliberalism, secularism, open borders,
14:45
Speaker 1: speech codes, declining birth rates? Or are you going to
14:48
Speaker 1: start embracing national pride, the Christian heritage that once defined
14:55
Speaker 1: the West. And that brings me to our next story.
14:58
Speaker 1: Just days after J.D. Vance condemned the assault on free
15:03
Speaker 1: speech in Europe, a 74-year-old Scottish woman was confronted by
15:07
Speaker 1: police for standing silently within the buffer zone surrounding an
15:11
Speaker 1: abortion facility while holding a sign that read, Coercion is
15:16
Speaker 1: a crime. Here to talk only if you want. Presumably,
15:20
Speaker 1: she's saying, I will talk to you if you are
15:21
Speaker 1: somebody who wants to get an abortion, you're going into
15:24
Speaker 1: this facility for that reason. Now, buffer zones are areas
15:27
Speaker 1: around abortion clinics in the UK where you can't even
15:30
Speaker 1: silently pray because it could inhibit a woman from getting
15:33
Speaker 1: an abortion. So this woman was standing silently alone on
15:36
Speaker 1: a street, holding a sign, inviting anyone to speak to
15:38
Speaker 1: her on their own volition, and she was arrested. This
15:41
Speaker 1: is somehow a prosecutable offense in the UK because the
15:46
Speaker 1: freedom to kill babies comes before freedom to speech, assembly,
15:51
Speaker 1: even silent prayer. that can be seen. It is truly insane.
15:56
Speaker 1: And the UK has already arrested multiple pro-life activists for
16:03
Speaker 1: standing silently near abortion facilities. This is not like a
16:06
Speaker 1: random situation. This happens like very frequently. This is what
16:10
Speaker 1: they've come to. All those supposedly Western values down the drain.
16:15
Speaker 1: But I do think, I want you guys to be
16:16
Speaker 1: optimistic because I do think that all hope is not lost.
16:18
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people in Europe who are
16:22
Speaker 1: expressing a sense of awe and respect of President Trump.
16:26
Speaker 1: And this is coming from the populace in Europe who
16:29
Speaker 1: are gaining momentum. They exist. There are a lot of
16:34
Speaker 1: reports that we're inspiring them. And that is, again, something
16:36
Speaker 1: to be really optimistic about. Perhaps this will spark a
16:39
Speaker 1: global Western movement. All right. Yesterday, my dad, Transportation Secretary
16:44
Speaker 1: Sean Duffy, announced the launch of an investigation into California's
16:48
Speaker 1: high-speed rail project. This project was announced in 2008. It
16:55
Speaker 1: was supposed to cost roughly $ 33 billion, and it was
16:58
Speaker 1: also supposed to be completed in 2020. It is now 2025.
17:01
Speaker 1: The project has cost nearly $ 16 billion and remains unfinished,
17:06
Speaker 1: with projected costs at over $ 128 billion. So just insane.
17:12
Speaker 1: The investigation is aimed at uncovering how California has used
17:16
Speaker 1: and probably abused federal tax dollars meant for the long-delayed
17:21
Speaker 1: high-speed rail project. Now, at this press conference in California
17:28
Speaker 1: announcing the investigation, a bunch of left-wing protesters showed up.
17:33
Speaker 1: And they were screeching, build the rail, and just disrupting
17:36
Speaker 1: everything and being very obnoxious. And what's really weird about
17:39
Speaker 1: this protest is, is it my dad's fault that the
17:41
Speaker 1: rail hasn't been built? Is it Trump's fault? No, that
17:44
Speaker 1: would be the fault of California politicians. And my dad
17:48
Speaker 1: is just actually calling for an investigation into why it
17:50
Speaker 1: hasn't gotten built. My dad's like, yeah, let's build the rail.
17:52
Speaker 1: Why hasn't it been done? He's trying to investigate it.
17:55
Speaker 1: And again, these people are still mad. I don't know
17:57
Speaker 1: if they're psyop. I don't know if they're stupid, what
17:59
Speaker 1: the deal is. But here was my dad yesterday actually
18:02
Speaker 1: addressing the protesters.
18:04
Speaker 5: I want to address the protesters for a moment if
18:07
Speaker 5: I could.
18:07
Speaker 3: I think they were.
18:08
Speaker 5: Chanting, build the rail.
18:10
Speaker 6: It's been 17.
18:11
Speaker 7: Years and $ 16 billion.
18:15
Speaker 5: And no rail has been built. So if you want
18:17
Speaker 5: to go protest somewhere, if you want to shout at someone,
18:20
Speaker 5: go to the governor's mansion. Go talk to Democrats in
18:23
Speaker 5: the legislature who have brought us this crappy project. So
18:28
Speaker 5: we've seen over the course of the last month what
18:31
Speaker 5: DOGE has exposed with regard to fraud, waste, and abuse.
18:35
Speaker 5: And we're done with it.
18:36
Speaker 1: And you know what? You're going to have people who
18:38
Speaker 1: love fraud.
18:39
Speaker 5: Who love waste, who love trains to nowhere. But all
18:43
Speaker 5: of us up here, we do.
18:44
Speaker 1: Not love fraud, waste, and abuse.
18:46
Speaker 5: We are going to use the taxpayer money efficiently and effectively,
18:51
Speaker 5: and this is a boondoggle.
18:53
Speaker 1: This is a boondoggle. Incredible. And he's right. Go to
18:56
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom if you want to know why your train,
18:58
Speaker 1: your rail hasn't been built. It's so obvious to me,
19:03
Speaker 1: and it's bizarre that they're protesting the people who want
19:05
Speaker 1: to have an investigation into why it hasn't been built
19:08
Speaker 1: instead of being mad at their own politicians. President Trump
19:10
Speaker 1: also had some thoughts on this rail. Here's what President
19:12
Speaker 1: Trump said.
19:14
Speaker 7: It's the worst managed project I think I've ever seen,
19:17
Speaker 7: and I've seen some of the worst. Billions and billions,
19:20
Speaker 7: hundreds of billions of dollars over budget. In fact, I
19:24
Speaker 7: read where you could take every single person that was
19:27
Speaker 7: going to go on the train and get the finest
19:29
Speaker 7: limousine service in the world and take them back and
19:32
Speaker 7: forth with limousines, and you'd have hundreds of billions of
19:35
Speaker 7: dollars left over. It is the worst thing, and we're
19:38
Speaker 7: going to start an investigation of that because it's not possible.
19:41
Speaker 7: I built for a living, and I built on time,
19:44
Speaker 7: on budget.
19:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, so President Trump is a builder. That's what he does.
19:49
Speaker 1: And actually, when he appointed my dad as Secretary of Transportation,
19:52
Speaker 1: the president told my dad something to the effect of,
19:56
Speaker 1: you know, if I wasn't president, this department, DOT, is
20:00
Speaker 1: what I'd want to lead. The Department of Transportation is infrastructure.
20:03
Speaker 1: It's building. That's Trump's bread and butter, and that's why
20:06
Speaker 1: he's applying private sector standards to the government and saying,
20:09
Speaker 1: you know what? No, you guys can't just defraud the
20:11
Speaker 1: public like this. If you're a contractor and you're given
20:15
Speaker 1: billions of dollars to complete a project and you don't
20:18
Speaker 1: do it and there's no accounting for where the money
20:21
Speaker 1: has gone, you go to jail. There are consequences sued
20:25
Speaker 1: into bankruptcy, to oblivion. You don't just get away with that.
20:29
Speaker 1: Why should it be any different when it's the taxpayers
20:32
Speaker 1: getting defrauded? There just seems to be an entire cohort
20:37
Speaker 1: of American leaders, politicians, who for some reason do not
20:41
Speaker 1: think it's their job to act in the best interest
20:44
Speaker 1: of the American people. It's pretty bizarre. Which brings me
20:47
Speaker 1: to Jasmine Crockett. And I know Dan always is insisting
20:49
Speaker 1: that AOC is the dumbest member of Congress. She's such
20:52
Speaker 1: an idiot. I think the boss needs to reassess because
20:55
Speaker 1: Jasmine Crockett has hands down beat AOC for the title
21:00
Speaker 1: of dumbest member of Congress. She's way worse. Drop a
21:03
Speaker 1: comment if you agree with me and tell Dan it
21:05
Speaker 1: is not AOC. It is Jasmine Crockett. She is way
21:09
Speaker 1: dumber than AOC. Here is Representative Crockett, Jasmine Crockett on Doge,
21:15
Speaker 1: potentially refunding Americans $ 5, 000 each. And I want you to
21:19
Speaker 1: pay attention to the end here because she goes on
21:21
Speaker 1: a tirade about how the situation is somehow synonymous with
21:24
Speaker 1: the massive COVID handouts that the federal government gave. And
21:27
Speaker 1: it is not synonymous. This money was saved by Doge
21:30
Speaker 1: and is potentially going to be returned to the public.
21:32
Speaker 1: It's a different situation. It's not just a handout. So
21:35
Speaker 1: she's making these really dumb comparisons, but like I said,
21:38
Speaker 1: pay attention to what she says at the end. Now,
21:41
Speaker 1: President Trump says he likes the idea of giving some
21:43
Speaker 1: of the savings from Doge back to Americans as kind
21:46
Speaker 1: of a dividend. Would you support that?
21:49
Speaker 8: Listen, he's just telling a lie. He's not the one
21:52
Speaker 8: that had anything to do with the twelve hundred dollar
21:55
Speaker 8: refunds that people had during the midst of COVID that
21:58
Speaker 8: was done by a Democratic House and Democratic Senate. Right now,
22:01
Speaker 8: what they're going to do is say, hey, we want
22:03
Speaker 8: to give you a refund, but Congress won't let us.
22:07
Speaker 8: Because they already know that there's just no money for that.
22:11
Speaker 8: The only reason that those refunds came before was because
22:14
Speaker 8: we were living in different times. This was a time
22:17
Speaker 8: in which hopefully we won't ever go through again. We
22:20
Speaker 8: had a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic. The bad part is that I
22:24
Speaker 8: don't know if it's once-in-a-lifetime because we know that Ebola... unfortunately,
22:28
Speaker 8: was detected right here in New York here recently. And
22:32
Speaker 8: if we continue down this road of getting rid of
22:34
Speaker 8: scientists or deciding that we don't want to rely on
22:37
Speaker 8: experts as relates to what they're telling us to do,
22:40
Speaker 8: or we don't want to deal with vaccines and medicine
22:43
Speaker 8: in this country, then we may be facing not only
22:46
Speaker 8: our next pandemic, but our next two, three or four
22:49
Speaker 8: pandemics because of their incompetence. So no, we are not
22:53
Speaker 8: in the business of giving out money. And honestly, I
22:56
Speaker 8: don't know what $ 5, 000 will do for you.
23:01
Speaker 1: We're not in the business of giving out money.
23:03
Speaker 8: We are not in the business of giving out money.
23:09
Speaker 1: And she doesn't know what $ 5, 000 will do for you. Okay.
23:12
Speaker 1: First of all, what do you mean you aren't in
23:14
Speaker 1: the business of giving out money? That is all Democrats do.
23:18
Speaker 1: They don't care about the economy or border security or
23:21
Speaker 1: preserving your national identity.
23:22
Speaker 8: None of that matters.
23:24
Speaker 1: But they win votes by buying them with crappy social programs.
23:29
Speaker 1: Giving out money is in fact all Democrats run on.
23:32
Speaker 1: It's their entire platform. And she's also pro-reparation. So literally
23:38
Speaker 1: just giving out money based on skin color. That's what
23:40
Speaker 1: Jasmine Crockett supports. Just reparations for people based on how
23:44
Speaker 1: much melanin they have in their skin. But no, she's
23:47
Speaker 1: not in the business of giving out money, you guys.
23:49
Speaker 1: Reparations and all these social programs, but she's not in
23:52
Speaker 1: the money, in the business of just giving out money.
23:54
Speaker 1: What a ridiculous statement from Jasmine Crockett. And second, how
23:59
Speaker 1: dumb do you have to be as a politician to
24:02
Speaker 1: tell Americans still suffering from the ramifications of Bidenomics, I
24:07
Speaker 1: don't know what $ 5, 000 would do for you. The vast
24:11
Speaker 1: majority of people Could use $ 5, 000, Jasmine. We are no
24:15
Speaker 1: living off of congressional salaries. But $ 750 was good for
24:21
Speaker 1: North Carolina. Yeah, that's all they need. $ 750. Like, what? Girl, what?
24:27
Speaker 1: And like I said, dumbest member of Congress. You have
24:29
Speaker 1: to be an idiot to make such an out-of-touch, classist
24:32
Speaker 1: statement to Americans who are indeed still suffering from Bidenomics.
24:38
Speaker 1: All right, Kash Patel was confirmed as the director of
24:41
Speaker 1: the FBI yesterday by a narrow Senate vote of 51
24:44
Speaker 1: to 47. And this is basically what's going on in
24:48
Speaker 1: the FBI right now. Take a look. Oh, my God. OK,
24:51
Speaker 1: it's happening. Everybody stay calm.
24:53
Speaker 3: What's the procedure, everyone?
24:54
Speaker 1: What's the procedure?
24:55
Speaker 3: Stay calm. Everybody just calm down.
24:59
Speaker 1: That was from The Office. It's a great meme. Great
25:02
Speaker 1: meme template. But yeah, they're freaking out, I'm sure. I mean,
25:05
Speaker 1: this is the greatest thing to happen to the FBI.
25:07
Speaker 1: And then if you're in the FBI, probably the worst
25:09
Speaker 1: thing to ever happen to you. It is their greatest nightmare,
25:12
Speaker 1: Kash Patel. And this follows mass hysteria from Democrats who
25:16
Speaker 1: have used the FBI to go after their right-wing political opponents.
25:19
Speaker 1: Here was Senator Whitehouse before this confirmation. Kash Patel, mark
25:25
Speaker 1: my words, will cause evil in this building behind us
25:29
Speaker 1: and Republicans who vote for him will rue that day.
25:34
Speaker 1: I think it's already been causing evil, Senator. Targeting pro-lifers,
25:39
Speaker 1: school board meetings, Catholics, January Sixers, President Trump, Russiagate, the
25:43
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden laptop cover-up, fostering the censorship industrial complex. It
25:48
Speaker 1: is an evil organization. That's why we need cash. Now,
25:52
Speaker 1: Ben Weingarten had an excellent piece in The Federalist where
25:54
Speaker 1: he lays out Why You All Should Be So Excited
25:57
Speaker 1: About Kash Patel. And this piece is titled, Kash Patel
26:01
Speaker 1: is Perfect for FBI Director Because He Already Fought the
26:03
Speaker 1: Deep State and Won. And this piece gives a great
26:05
Speaker 1: refresher on what Kash has been through. And I think
26:09
Speaker 1: it's relevant to just go over it as we look
26:13
Speaker 1: to this new Kash Patel and FBI. So Ben writes,
26:17
Speaker 1: Kash Patel was the exposer par excellence of the Russia
26:20
Speaker 1: collusion hoax at its height while serving as a top
26:23
Speaker 1: investigator on the House Intelligence Committee. There, he helped lead
26:27
Speaker 1: the drafting of the Nunes memo that revealed the fraud
26:30
Speaker 1: perpetuated on the FISA court used to spy on the
26:33
Speaker 1: Trump campaign by way of advisor Carter Page, efforts he
26:36
Speaker 1: would later continue by working to declassify and release Russiagate
26:39
Speaker 1: documents under then acting director of national intelligence, Rick Grinnell.
26:43
Speaker 1: Little could better illustrate Patel's courage and ability to take
26:46
Speaker 1: on a weaponized and hyper-politicized deep state. In the weeks
26:49
Speaker 1: before issuing the memo, Former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein
26:53
Speaker 1: reportedly threatened to subpoena Patel's communications as well as those
26:57
Speaker 1: of his colleagues. Unbeknownst to the investigator, the Justice Department
27:00
Speaker 1: was already collecting those communications records under subpoena per request,
27:06
Speaker 1: covering data from as early as December 1, 2016. The
27:09
Speaker 1: same DOJ whose misconduct Patel was investigating was spying on
27:14
Speaker 1: him and on absurd grounds, as Inspector General Michael Horowitz
27:17
Speaker 1: would reveal. Here is Kash Patel himself explaining that he's
27:23
Speaker 1: the man for the job because he is the victim
27:26
Speaker 1: of the weaponized state.
27:28
Speaker 6: Senator, this may be one of the scenarios that most
27:30
Speaker 6: uniquely qualifies me to take command at the FBI. Having
27:35
Speaker 6: been the victim of government overreach and a weaponized system
27:40
Speaker 6: of justice and law enforcement, I know what it feels
27:43
Speaker 6: like to have the full weight of the United States
27:45
Speaker 6: government barreling down on you. And as the Biden inspector
27:49
Speaker 6: general determined, those activities by the FBI and DOJ were
27:52
Speaker 6: wholly improper and not predicated upon law and facts. I
27:57
Speaker 6: will ensure, if confirmed, that no American is subjected to
28:01
Speaker 6: that kind of torment, to that kind of cost, financially
28:05
Speaker 6: and personally. And most importantly, I will make sure that
28:08
Speaker 6: no American is subjected to death threats like I was
28:12
Speaker 6: and subjected to moving their residences like I was. because
28:16
Speaker 6: of government overreach, because of leaks of information about my
28:20
Speaker 6: personal status. If confirmed as FBI director, Mr. Chairman, you
28:24
Speaker 6: have my commitment that no one in this country will
28:26
Speaker 6: feel that pain.
28:30
Speaker 1: As Ben writes, perhaps their most important shared trait between
28:35
Speaker 1: Kash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard is that they are not
28:38
Speaker 1: captured by the elites they would lead. Rather, they have
28:42
Speaker 1: the scars illustrating now those entities have strayed from their
28:46
Speaker 1: missions and the smarts and tenacity to restore them. I
28:50
Speaker 1: am really optimistic about this FBI. I have a lot
28:54
Speaker 1: of confidence. We're going to talk about that more later.
28:57
Speaker 1: All right, I have some Catholic news for you all.
29:00
Speaker 1: As many of you probably know, Pope Francis has been hospitalized.
29:03
Speaker 1: The Pope has double pneumonia, and the Vatican appears to
29:08
Speaker 1: be preparing Francis to pass away in the very near future.
29:11
Speaker 1: That means that the Catholic Church will need to pick
29:14
Speaker 1: a new pope. And the Pope, if you did not know,
29:16
Speaker 1: is selected by the College of Cardinals through a secret
29:20
Speaker 1: ballot during a conclave requiring a two-thirds majority vote. And
29:26
Speaker 1: LifeSite News published this fascinating article given a potential upcoming
29:31
Speaker 1: conclave that I really, I just have to share with
29:33
Speaker 1: you guys. The article is essentially a request to the
29:36
Speaker 1: Trump admin that they investigate whether the US government was
29:41
Speaker 1: involved in the sequence of events that resulted in the
29:44
Speaker 1: resignation of Pope Benedict XVI on February 11th, 2013, and
29:49
Speaker 1: then led to the selection of Pope Francis as the Pope.
29:53
Speaker 1: The article recounts how several news outlets reported that various
29:56
Speaker 1: Vatican officials were electronically surveilled by the U.S. intelligence agencies,
30:02
Speaker 1: both before and during the 2013 conclave. So LifeSite is
30:06
Speaker 1: now requesting an investigation, not into the Catholic Church, but
30:09
Speaker 1: rather an investigation into activities of the Obama admin. The
30:14
Speaker 1: Obama admin, of course, as known for fomenting various coups
30:17
Speaker 1: and color revolutions to overthrow governments around the world. So
30:21
Speaker 1: the suggestion is that perhaps the Obama admin did the
30:23
Speaker 1: same to the Vatican and forced the resignation of a
30:27
Speaker 1: pope so that a new pope, favorable to their agenda,
30:30
Speaker 1: could be installed as pontiff. Here are a few of
30:33
Speaker 1: these specific questions being asked by LifeSite. To what end
30:38
Speaker 1: was the National Security Agency monitoring the conclave that elected
30:41
Speaker 1: Pope Francis? What other covert operations were carried out by U.S.
30:45
Speaker 1: government operatives concerning the resignation of Pope Benedict or the
30:48
Speaker 1: conclave that elected Pope Francis? International monetary transactions with the
30:54
Speaker 1: Vatican were suspended during the last few days prior to
30:57
Speaker 1: the resignation of Pope Benedict. Were any U.S. government official
31:00
Speaker 1: agencies involved in this? Why were international monetary transactions resumed
31:05
Speaker 1: on February 12, 2013, the day after Benedict announced his resignation?
31:11
Speaker 1: Was this pure coincidence? What actions, if any, were actually
31:15
Speaker 1: taken by John Podesta, Hillary Clinton, and others tied to
31:19
Speaker 1: the Obama admin who were involved in the discussion proposing
31:22
Speaker 1: the fomenting of a Catholic Spring? What was the purpose
31:26
Speaker 1: and nature of the secret meeting? between Vice President Joseph
31:29
Speaker 1: Biden and Pope Benedict at the Vatican on or about
31:34
Speaker 1: June 3rd, 2011. Really serious suggestions here that the federal
31:43
Speaker 1: government may have been involved in somehow installing Pope Francis.
31:46
Speaker 1: I'd never heard this before. And here's where I'm at
31:49
Speaker 1: with it. We don't know what our government is capable
31:53
Speaker 1: of doing. Mike Benz has repeated that we've only scratched
31:57
Speaker 1: the surface of the corruption, the fraud, the abuse. I
32:00
Speaker 1: really hope this is just some wild, crazy conspiracy, that
32:04
Speaker 1: there's no basis for it. But the truth is, we
32:07
Speaker 1: can't know for sure without disclosure. And I think this
32:12
Speaker 1: admin needs to be committed to radical disclosure on this issue,
32:16
Speaker 1: as well as Epstein and 9-11, RFK and MLK, all
32:20
Speaker 1: of it. This is what we need. This is what
32:21
Speaker 1: this country needs to heal and what is the right
32:24
Speaker 1: thing to do. And I have a lot of confidence,
32:26
Speaker 1: like I said, in Kash Patel and this FBI, in
32:29
Speaker 1: Tulsi Gabbard at DNI. I think that we're going to
32:31
Speaker 1: get exactly what we voted for. I have to ask
32:35
Speaker 1: your opinions on something, all of you guys. There are
32:38
Speaker 1: a lot of videos online of people, choirs and Broadway
32:43
Speaker 1: casts singing on airplanes. I guess, The group gets together.
32:48
Speaker 1: They all want to sing together. And sometimes people on
32:50
Speaker 1: the airplane, they love it. They're into it. But it
32:53
Speaker 1: seems like most of the time people hate it. Here
32:57
Speaker 1: is one example of that.
33:00
Speaker 2: Okay, we're good with that.
33:30
Speaker 1: I love it. I think it's awesome. I think it's joyful.
33:33
Speaker 1: It's wonderful. But the comments don't say it's so great.
33:37
Speaker 1: Somebody said, Is this a hostage situation? I hate people
33:41
Speaker 1: like this. That's my own personal hell right there. If
33:45
Speaker 1: people can't escape your singing, it's not time to sing.
33:48
Speaker 1: Someone else said, Can passengers sue for this? This should
33:52
Speaker 1: be illegal. There was very negative reactions to this. And actually,
33:56
Speaker 1: I have another video. This is a woman getting yelled
33:58
Speaker 1: at by a flight attendant for singing on the airplane.
34:01
Speaker 1: She is a Grammy-nominated gospel singer. Here's what that looked like.
34:06
Speaker 8: I just found out I'm up for two Grammys.
34:11
Speaker 3: My very first time, you guys. My name is Bobbi Storm.
34:18
Speaker 3: And I'm up for two Grammys. Are you going to
34:22
Speaker 3: be quiet?
34:30
Speaker 1: But they're enjoying it.
34:31
Speaker 3: So while we're sitting here, could I please.
34:33
Speaker 8: I'm not enjoying it.
34:34
Speaker 6: So I'm asking you, can you be quiet? Okay, well,
34:36
Speaker 6: I'll find that out.
34:37
Speaker 8: That's a yes or no answer, please.
34:39
Speaker 3: Am I going to go to jail if I don't?
34:41
Speaker 8: Can you please answer my question?
34:42
Speaker 5: Are you willing and able to be quiet right now?
34:44
Speaker 1: I'm doing what the Lord is telling me to do.
34:46
Speaker 8: I'm asking you a question, yes or no.
34:47
Speaker 4: I'm your flight leader.
34:48
Speaker 6: I need you to follow my instruction.
34:50
Speaker 1: Okay.
34:50
Speaker 6: My instructions for you to answer my question.
34:52
Speaker 5: Are you able to be quiet right now?
34:53
Speaker 3: What are you guys saying?
34:55
Speaker 1: I'm asking you, ma'am. Nobody answers.
34:57
Speaker 3: Oh, no. What are you guys saying? Okay.
35:00
Speaker 1: Okay, a couple things here. I don't think that the
35:04
Speaker 1: Lord told her to start singing to the passengers. I
35:09
Speaker 1: don't think that that happened. But also, that guy was
35:11
Speaker 1: such a jerk. I just thought he was mean. Like, oh,
35:13
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear it. It's like, does it
35:14
Speaker 1: really bother you that much, sir? She's just trying to sing.
35:18
Speaker 3: I don't know.
35:18
Speaker 1: I don't get so upset about this. I do think
35:21
Speaker 1: that it matters how much people like the singing. So
35:25
Speaker 1: if you're a really amazing singer, amazing musical group, you
35:29
Speaker 1: probably will get a better reception from the plane than
35:31
Speaker 1: if you're not so great. And Michael's messing with my background,
35:35
Speaker 1: so I can't. Michael, let's just play that video of
35:38
Speaker 1: the last group that really is excellent at singing. Ooh,
35:46
Speaker 1: stand by me.
35:49
Speaker 3: If the skies that we look upon should tumble and fall,
35:57
Speaker 3: or the mountains should crumble to the sea, I won't cry,
36:07
Speaker 3: I won't cry.
36:08
Speaker 1: I mean, it's good, you guys, right? Who would be
36:11
Speaker 1: upset about this? I just don't get it.
36:12
Speaker 2: Just as long.
36:15
Speaker 1: We'll go with that, Michael. So Michael and I got
36:19
Speaker 1: into an argument about this this morning. I had to
36:21
Speaker 1: add it to the show because I was like, Michael,
36:23
Speaker 1: why are people so mad about this? And he was like,
36:25
Speaker 1: I would be so mad about this. I would have
36:27
Speaker 1: my earplugs in. I would be giving them the side eyes,
36:31
Speaker 1: scowling at them. I just want to be in peace.
36:33
Speaker 1: I don't want to be dealing with an entire choir
36:36
Speaker 1: of theater kids screaming, singing in my ears. I don't
36:40
Speaker 1: view it that way. I thought it was lovely. I
36:42
Speaker 1: think also because I'm not a good singer, I just
36:44
Speaker 1: don't have that kind of musical talent that whenever I
36:46
Speaker 1: see somebody who does, I'm like, wow, that's amazing. If
36:49
Speaker 1: you see somebody who's really good at art and you're
36:51
Speaker 1: just trash at it, you see a beautiful painting, you're like,
36:53
Speaker 1: that's incredible. I think that's kind of what it's like.
36:56
Speaker 1: So I have a lot of appreciation for people who
36:58
Speaker 1: have musical talent and I thought it was a very joyful,
37:01
Speaker 1: beautiful thing, but people did not love that. So also
37:06
Speaker 1: start dropping some comments. Let me, if you guys have
37:08
Speaker 1: any questions, I can answer them at the end of
37:10
Speaker 1: the show. I kind of wanted to do that to
37:12
Speaker 1: take some audience questions. But like I said about this
37:15
Speaker 1: choir situation, who can be upset? My dad used to
37:18
Speaker 1: say when I was little, he would say, you know,
37:20
Speaker 1: if you, if you were kind of a teenager and
37:22
Speaker 1: you weren't so excited about things anymore, right? Teenagers kind
37:25
Speaker 1: of get that vibe. He would say, you've lost your sparkle.
37:29
Speaker 1: So I think all of you in the comments who
37:31
Speaker 1: say you don't like the singing on the plane or Michael,
37:34
Speaker 1: you guys have lost your sparkle. You have to take
37:36
Speaker 1: in the joys of life. I think you have to
37:38
Speaker 1: have some zest for life. Do we have any comments here, Michael,
37:41
Speaker 1: that I think we should read aloud?
37:44
Speaker 7: All right.
37:46
Speaker 3: Yeah.
37:48
Speaker 1: Somebody says, good morning, Michael. Can you please let Evita
37:51
Speaker 1: know that her hair looks fabulous this morning? I have
37:54
Speaker 1: a question for Evita. What is her fondest memory growing
37:56
Speaker 1: up with her family? I love that question. A fondest
38:00
Speaker 1: memory growing up with my family. You know, I will
38:06
Speaker 1: say it's not like a memory specifically, but my favorite
38:09
Speaker 1: thing every summer is going up and spending time with
38:13
Speaker 1: not just my immediate family, but my extended family in Hayward, Wisconsin,
38:17
Speaker 1: which is where my dad grew up. They have a
38:19
Speaker 1: little place on the lake and my siblings love to
38:22
Speaker 1: go tubing and water skiing and swimming. It's just like
38:26
Speaker 1: the most peaceful, wonderful, beautiful place in the world. It
38:29
Speaker 1: makes me so happy to be there and to be
38:31
Speaker 1: around all of my extended family. I think a lot
38:33
Speaker 1: of times people don't live near their extended family at all.
38:38
Speaker 1: I know I don't, but it happens to be that
38:41
Speaker 1: most of my extended family on my dad's side all
38:43
Speaker 1: stayed in Hayward, which is not something that usually happens.
38:46
Speaker 1: So when I go back there, I see everyone. And
38:49
Speaker 1: it's so exciting. And it feels like the family is
38:53
Speaker 1: full and together again. And my dad is one of
38:57
Speaker 1: 11 kids. So there's a lot of cousins, a lot
39:00
Speaker 1: of aunts and uncles. And of course, I'm with my family, right?
39:02
Speaker 1: I'm one of nine. So big families are a blessing.
39:05
Speaker 1: I love them. And I love just everyone being together.
39:08
Speaker 1: And thank you for saying that my hair looks good.
39:10
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. Do you have another one, Mikey? We're
39:14
Speaker 1: getting used to this. So if we don't have a
39:16
Speaker 1: lot of questions, that's okay. Next time, you guys will
39:20
Speaker 1: know about it. Friday, we'll do another little Q & A,
39:23
Speaker 1: and you guys can be prepared to ask me some questions.
39:26
Speaker 1: But if we don't have any more, all good with me.
39:30
Speaker 1: Let's close this out, Mikey.
39:34
Speaker 3: Oh, right.
39:35
Speaker 1: Oh, my goodness. I'm never going to end the show.
39:36
Speaker 1: We're just going to keep it going. Haley Carania is
39:41
Speaker 1: starting a new show with the Bongino Network, which I'm
39:45
Speaker 1: really excited about. I met Haley briefly. at Dan Bongino's
39:49
Speaker 1: birthday party. And she was a very sweet, very lovely,
39:53
Speaker 1: very beautiful girl. You can look at her. Look at
39:55
Speaker 1: her picture. She's a gorgeous girl. She's a gorgeous, gorgeous girl.
39:57
Speaker 1: So I'm going to continue to do Bongino Report early edition.
40:01
Speaker 1: And Haley will be doing Bongino Report evening edition at
40:05
Speaker 1: 6 p.m., Michael? 6 p.m. Eastern time. That'll be starting really,
40:09
Speaker 1: really soon. We have even more announcements coming for the
40:12
Speaker 1: Bongino Network that I am like dying to share with
40:15
Speaker 1: you guys, but I can't yet. So stay tuned. Dan
40:18
Speaker 1: is going to be the first one to break the news.
40:20
Speaker 1: I'm going to keep, um, keep amplifying whatever Dan says,
40:23
Speaker 1: but again, so excited for Haley to join us and,
40:26
Speaker 1: and for there to be an evening edition for this
40:28
Speaker 1: to start growing and getting bigger and, and for you
40:31
Speaker 1: guys to have even more content. And I think Haley's
40:33
Speaker 1: going to be a little more cultural, a lot of fun,
40:35
Speaker 1: like more fun stories, not quite as news heavy. Um, and, and, and, uh,
40:41
Speaker 1: sometimes I can be a little bit of a Debbie Downer.
40:43
Speaker 1: So Haley is going to be high energy, super fun,
40:46
Speaker 1: super joyful, which I'm really excited to see how she
40:48
Speaker 1: handles this show.
40:50
Speaker 2: All right.
40:50
Speaker 1: That is all I have for you guys today. Thank
40:51

41:00
Speaker 3: I'm your host, Megan Klingenberg, and I am super stoked
41:03
Speaker 3: to be joined by Daryl Dike.
41:05
Speaker 1: Arguably, your most impressive quality cannot be measured. You're a
41:09
Speaker 1: guy who is the definition of grit. Injuries have ended
41:12
Speaker 1: plenty of careers, but instead you decided yours would only
41:15
Speaker 1: be a chapter instead of the ending. Welcome to the show, Daryl.
41:18
Speaker 3: Thank you so much.
41:19
Speaker 4: That's a good intro right there.
