00:00Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with
00:08your host, Dan Bongino.
00:11We had so many amazing moments at the RNC.
00:15We didn't want you to miss any of them.
00:17So if you missed the second, we put together my production team, which did a great job
00:21here.
00:22A best of for you.
00:23Folks, you know, I only bring you the best guests.
00:25I don't want to waste your time.
00:27So let's get right to the show.
00:28You're not going to want to miss a second of this.
00:30There are so many moments.
00:31We honestly had a hard time segregating out which ones we would put in here and which
00:35ones we wouldn't.
00:37It was that good.
00:38A couple of sponsors paid for today's show.
00:40We appreciate your patience.
00:41Hey, you're having trouble sleeping or staying asleep, trust me.
00:43I've been there.

00:45Poor sleep takes a toll on your health.
00:48But there's hope on the horizon.
00:49It comes in the form of Beams Dream Powder.
00:51It's been a game changer for me.

00:56life throws our way.
00:58And today, my listeners get a special discount on Beams Dream Powder, their science-backed

01:37Today's show also brought to you by Birch Gold.
01:38If you weren't following the news, it was a big hit to the U.S. dollar.
01:41You know, the Saudis busted up that petrodollar deal we've had for a long time.
01:46Oil used to be sold almost exclusively in U.S. dollars.
01:49Now they want other options.
01:50So simple supply and demand.
01:51There's less demand for the U.S. dollar than what happens to the U.S. dollar.
01:55That's why I use Birch Gold, B-I-R-C-H, and have for a long time.

02:31So many moments.
02:32So many good times at the RNC.
02:34You're going to love it.
02:35Do you guys think, because this is the one issue all three of us are going to agree on
02:38on the couch.
02:39I know we do, because we were.
02:40Only one?
02:41I'm spending enough time with both of you.
02:42I think we agree on probably everything.
02:43This is news, and this one was something we went all in on.
02:49We all agreed J.D. Vance was the best pick for vice president, given the portfolio of
02:53people available.
02:54100%.
02:55Don, your initial thoughts.
02:56I mean, no one's closer to your dad than you.
02:58I mean, I know your dad had this short list.
03:00I know Bergram seems like a nice enough guy.
03:03I went to a fundraiser.
03:04He was there.
03:05He's actually a pretty good speaker.
03:07I guess Rubio has his assets, too.
03:09Whatever.
03:10I don't get into politicians.
03:11I don't want to date these guys.
03:12I got a wife.
03:13I don't really care.
03:14However, J.D., to me, is the one guy, I've had a couple of conversations, but I don't
03:16have coffee with him.
03:17We're not best friends.
03:19He came off as the most genuine and sincere, and even though you may disagree with him
03:23on some things, I don't, but you may disagree with him on Ukraine or trade policy.
03:28He says what he means, and at least he's going to take a stand.
03:31He's the real deal.
03:32I mean, listen.
03:33I read his book.
03:35That's how I got to know him before.
03:36I read his book back in, like, whatever it was, early teens when it came out.
03:40I go, man, this guy's got to be in politics.
03:42I loved the story, and then he actually sort of started to say, like, never Trump.
03:46He didn't have any information, but he was also the guy that didn't just say, okay, well,
03:49I'm going to accept Trump now and roll.
03:50He was like, I was wrong.
03:52I did not think that the brash guy from New York was going to fight for X, Y, Z.
03:55I didn't think he was going to, like, I was wrong.
03:57I bought into the media narrative, and he became, like, a champion of the America First,
04:02of the MAGA cause, and just articulates it so well.
04:06So, like, we became friends, but I was like, Chris was like, oh, this guy, I love him.
04:09He's a never Trump.
04:10I can't even believe it, but it wasn't just he came to terms with it.
04:14He was just like, I was wrong, and from that moment on, just started fighting for all of
04:19the things that we believe in, so I was really passionate about that.
04:23I was also passionate about having a guy that's young, that can take that mantle of America
04:27First, not go back to neocon bullshit, where, you know, we haven't been in a war in three
04:32minutes.
04:33Let's make sure we spend $4 trillion and mortgage our children's futures to hell.
04:39I don't want it to end in four years after my father's done, right?
04:42I want that to be conservatism going forward, not a reversion back to the stuff that has
04:48failed us and that doesn't represent the people across the country, but it plays great in
04:52the swamp.
04:53It's a big deal.
04:54Your dad started a movement.
04:56It's not about him anymore.
04:58It is now.
04:59He is obviously the guy who's the head of the MAGA movement, but your father's not going
05:03to be around for hopefully a long time, but he started a movement, and I said, are these
05:08other guys the guys to take the mantle, or is JD?
05:12Tucker, I know you were team JD.
05:14How can I say?
05:15I was at a dinner a few years ago in my old neighborhood in D.C. before I left, probably
05:18five years ago, and there were Americans talking about Trump, you know, what do you think of
05:21Trump?
05:22And I said, you know, you know, the smartest guy in that whole constellation is Don Jr.
05:27And they're like, yeah, Don Jr. is the smartest, oh yeah, Don Jr., okay.
05:33He shoots animals, right?
05:34I was like, actually, Don Jr. is the smartest one.
05:37It's true.
05:39I thought your analysis is so right, I almost don't have anything to add to that.
05:43It's exactly right, what you just said, and so he speaks for me on that, but can I say
05:48one thing about JD?
05:49He's like a normal person, he's like a good person.
05:52Politicians are just so hollow.
05:54You can't overstate that.
05:55You can't have a conversation with them.
05:56I mean, how many dinners have I had with politicians, senators, presidents, all of them?
06:01They're all the same.
06:02They're all the same.
06:03If you say to JD-
06:04You can predict their answers, right?
06:05It's unbelievable, but even in private, they're false.
06:07JD Vance, I mean, I've had the privilege of talking to him a lot before he ran for
06:10Senate and this current post.
06:14He was like tormented, like what effect does this have on my wife?
06:17What effect does this have on my three children?
06:19These are real questions for him.
06:20These are not fake performative questions, like I'm going to spend more time with my
06:23family.
06:24He's like, how do they feel about this?
06:25What will this do to my soul?
06:26He weighs the moral consequences of decisions he actually does.
06:30By the way, I saw a picture of him today in his Marine uniform.
06:33I've never seen that before.
06:34I'm trying to get JD Vance to talk about his Marine service.
06:36He's embarrassed of it.
06:38He doesn't parade it around.
06:39He doesn't parade it.
06:40He never talks about it.
06:41You mean he doesn't have the Pete Buttigieg photo?
06:43No.
06:44But it's different.
06:45You know what?
06:46And this was such a critical point I spoke to.
06:47I'm not a veteran, so I spoke to a couple other people who are.
06:49I go, there's a difference here, right?
06:50You look at a Buttigieg.
06:52They go to Harvard, Princeton, Yale, and then they do like the, like, I want to be a politician,
06:55so I'll go do some obligatory service.
06:57JD enlisted in the Marine Corps out of high school.
07:00Yeah.
07:01He did that first.
07:02Yes.
07:03It wasn't the afterthought because I want to get into politics and it'd be a nice box
07:05to check.
07:06But he did it first before he knew where his life was going.
07:08I remember watching.
07:09That's a huge deal and a big difference.
07:10And he doesn't talk about it.
07:11And listen, it takes a set of moose nuts to go in the Marines, too.
07:14That's not an easy boot camp.
07:15Especially for enlisted.
07:16That's not a summer camp, bro.
07:17I think he's the first Marine ever to be on a ticket, actually.
07:19Actual Marines.
07:20Obviously, it's not Army.
07:21Marines are bad.
07:22Thank you, Marines.
07:23Leatherneck.
07:24You're a badass.
07:25And I like DeSantis.
07:26I mean, I have, I'm in Florida in the winter, but I remember watching one of these debates
07:29or something and DeSantis, in the end, I thought he was on one of the SEAL teams because he
07:33was talking about the SEAL teams and da-da-da-da-da, and I'm like, what, weren't you like a freaking
07:38lawyer or something?
07:39Like, stop.
07:40It's too fake.
07:41I can't.
07:42And I like DeSantis, but it's too fake.
07:43And it's also, it's being fake about something that's kind of important and that we all revere
07:47as Americans.
07:48It makes us all cynical about military service.
07:51And J.D., to his enormous credit, will never leverage that because, again, it makes everybody
07:56cynical when you lie about something important.
07:59You know what I mean?
08:00I think, I'd just like you to address this if you could.
08:02I played a clip of you on my podcast today.
08:04You were, I don't know what you're talking, Heritage or something.
08:05You said, you know, all of the right slash wrong people hate J.D. Vance.
08:11And I, can you just go into that?
08:13Because that is so important.
08:14Like the Lindsey Grahams of the world, who was, by the way, shit-talking J.D. Vance the
08:19entire day, the day before.
08:20He was trying to get your dad to go into it.
08:22You heard about that, I guess.
08:23There was a lot of lobbying efforts going on the day before, and I think, I mean, your
08:26post on the, I mean, just, just brutalized it.
08:31I think it's maybe the greatest thing on the Internet in the last week.
08:35It's like, and I hate to be mean to Lindsey Graham.
08:37I suspect he likes it, actually.
08:39Naughty little guy.
08:40But he does.
08:41Every time I see him, he's like, hey, man, I'm like, I was incredibly cruel to you.
08:48This is like some sort of weird, whatever, trip that you have.
08:53But I guess the point I would make is J.D. Vance, it's almost, and Trump is exactly the
08:58same, it's almost like to catch a predator.
09:01It's like you wave Trump or J.D. Vance out there, and all the creeps show up to hate.
09:07You know, it's like you just, they're such clarifying forces.
09:10Like Wall Street.
09:11It is.
09:12It's like catch a predator.
09:13It's like, no, I'm not kidding.
09:14It's like, stand in a room full of people in Washington and say, I think J.D. Vance
09:18should be the vice president.
09:20Everyone who has a heart attack is exactly who you don't want to babysit your kids.
09:23Like it's totally true.
09:25And in this specific case, I just, I watched, and since I spent my whole life in D.C., I
09:30knew a lot of the people, or actually all of them, and they were all the people whose
09:34careers have really, and decisions have really wrecked our country.
09:38And I kept thinking like, on what grounds do you have any authority to give advice to
09:42anybody for anything?
09:43It's like, literally, you pass a homeless guy and he's giving you real estate advice.
09:47You talk to a bankrupt guy and he's giving you investment strategy, and it's like, you've
09:50discredited yourself.
09:52It's a fat guy telling you how to get fit.
09:54You're like, what?
09:55No.
09:56When you have a track record of success, I will listen to you.
09:59But if you're, I don't know, fill in the blank, Lindsey Graham, are you joking?
10:06Everything that you have advocated for has hurt people, and above all, hurt the United
10:10States of America.
10:11Why don't you sit the next 20 years out in ashes and sackcloth?
10:15We're about to cross 175,000 streamers, so, hey, Chris, are you supposed to be there?
10:19I'd say we're the biggest in the world, right?
10:21We've got to be.
10:22Number one in the USA.
10:23What about the world?
10:24I don't want to just win America, I want to win the world.
10:27Number one stream in the USA.
10:28Wait, are you going to tell viewers who is actually the floor director of this show?
10:31Yeah.
10:32Chris, come on.
10:33Chris, wait.
10:34Chris, wave hello.
10:35Come on.
10:36Come on over.
10:37At least say hi.
10:38Hey, Chris, how come Pawlowski's never my producer?
10:39No, I was about to say, most people don't have.
10:40Say hi.
10:41Come here.
10:42Just sit next to me for a minute here.
10:43Billionaire media moguls.
10:44This is the CEO of Rumble, Chris.
10:45Say hello to everybody.
10:46Hey, chat.
10:47What's going on?
10:48We've got 175,000.
10:49175,000.
10:50Yeah.
10:51Biggest stream in the US.
10:52Biggest stream on Twitch right now.
10:53The reason I am the way I am is because I didn't grow up like the conventional billionaire
11:02son.
11:03My dad stuck me on job sites, so I grew up with construction workers, so I talk like
11:07that.
11:08I want to thank you, though, brother.
11:09This is because of you creating Rumble and giving us an opportunity to not have to do
11:12this bullshit censorship stuff on YouTube.
11:14You know, they kicked me off for saying masks don't work, and you think they'd apologize
11:18to me now?
11:19That's how we know that masks don't work.
11:21They thought it may be true at the time.
11:24There's never accountability for just being wrong about everything, right?
11:27Thanks, guys.
11:28The four marshal for this thing.
11:30We appreciate it.
11:31Ladies and gentlemen, I am a man of my word.
11:34I told you only the best guests from the RNC.
11:36I was not going to waste your money.
11:38Jim, can we?
11:40You sure?
11:43That's not true.
11:44No, there's definitely a midweek exception.
11:46Okay, there's not.
11:47All right.
11:48I don't want to waste any more time.
11:49U.S. Senate candidate from the great state of Arizona and a good friend, Carrie Lake.
11:54Welcome back to the show.
11:55You've been on many times.
11:56How are you?
11:57I'm doing great.
11:58It's good to be in person with you on this show.
11:59I know.
12:00We're usually over the phone.
12:01You're a little bit away from me over there in Arizona.
12:03My wife just spent some time in Sedona.
12:06Absolutely fell in love with it.
12:07I couldn't make it.
12:08I had to work on that specific trip.
12:10But how are you?
12:11You need to go back to Sedona with her.
12:12I know.
12:13Oh, she told me.
12:14I got married there.
12:15It's beautiful.
12:16It's just such a-
12:17There's so much to see in Arizona.
12:18I want to get into a couple of different things here with you.
12:21We limited time with you.
12:22How are you feeling about your race?
12:23I mean, I don't trust polling, but the polling is now trending significantly in your direction.
12:30No red wave talk on this show.
12:31It's absolutely forbidden.
12:33But given all the controversies in Arizona, how are you feeling about this?
12:37I feel good.
12:38We just got another poll.
12:39I don't know if we put it out or if it's been put out, but we're up a couple.
12:42That's good.
12:43We were down a little bit before.
12:44This is going to be a tight race because $250 million is going to be poured into the
12:49Arizona US Senate race.
12:50It's a lot of money, and it's a lot of ads they are able to buy and lie.
12:55My opponent is truly, and we hear this a lot, he's far right.
12:58He's the most far right person running.
13:00Far left.
13:01I'm sorry.
13:02Far left.
13:03Yeah.
13:04Okay.
13:05I'm lacking sleep.
13:06He's the most far left person running.
13:07Thank you for correcting me.
13:08No, no.
13:09Believe me.
13:10I do it all the time.
13:11You're on the air four hours a day.
13:12This happens all the time.
13:14He's the most far left person running.
13:15I'm not just throwing that around.
13:16No.
13:17Just listen to what he says.
13:18This is 100% of the time.
13:19That's more than even-
13:20Where does he think he's running though?
13:21California?
13:22That's more than the squad.
13:23Yeah.
13:24He's running in Arizona though.
13:25He's running in Arizona.
13:26He's not running in California where that might fly.
13:27He's in the House of Representatives.
13:29He's a congressman in Central Phoenix, the fastest growing homeless population.
13:33Vets are living on the street, dying on the street.
13:37He's marched and defunded the police rallies.
13:39That's disqualifying right there.
13:41He wanted to get rid of the filibuster in the House of Representatives, get rid of the
13:45filibuster to pass the George Floyd legislation, which would have defunded the police nationwide.
13:49While they run on democracy.
13:50While they run on democracy.
13:51They want to pack the Supreme Court.
13:52But now, of course, as a Democrat-
13:54Gallego's a lunatic.
13:55I mean, I've read his stuff.
13:58His positions are absolutely insane.
14:01Now, you're in an actual border state that has been just overwhelmed by this southern
14:08border collapse.
14:09We don't have a border.
14:10I always say to people, we have a suggestion.
14:11Hey, stop.
14:12Well, what if I don't?
14:13Nobody's going to fly you around the country.
14:16I've got to imagine.
14:17I'm not from Arizona.
14:19We're on there on the radio, and I don't pretend to understand what you do.
14:24What I don't understand now is how there's a single Democrat left politically standing
14:30in the state of Arizona.
14:32I mean, you're literally looking at the border invasion problem right there.
14:36I'm in Florida.
14:38We don't share a border with Mexico.
14:42How is it?
14:43I mean, are they trying to go centrist?
14:46Am I missing something?
14:47Well, I mean, I don't want to go in too deep into what all of our problems with our elections,
14:51but there's still problems, and we're working to resolve those in the courts.
14:55I'm still fighting in the courts, and we're trying to make some changes, because I think
14:58when you have elections run like a third world country, these are the people you get into
15:03office.
15:04But the Democrats increasingly are on our side.
15:06When you look at polling, and I agree with you, my polling is what the people are telling
15:10me on the ground.
15:11But I do look at polling as well.
15:14The Democrats are fed up.
15:16I saw a poll number that the Democrats are for, and majority of the Democrats are for,
15:22sending people back.
15:23I call it repatriating people back to their country.
15:25Hispanics are in favor of sending people back, Hispanic Democrats.
15:30One pollster asked, do you want to militarize the border?
15:33And the majority of people said, yes, temporarily, until we get this thing under control.
15:37So this is why my opponent, Ruben Gallego, is now trying to backpedal and act like he's
15:43Mr. Moderate, when he is the most radical.
15:46He's the reason.
15:48He's Biden's favorite congressman.
15:50He's the reason we have an open border.
15:52His plan for the border is keep it open, and then-
15:55No, no, let me sum it up.
15:56His plan for the border is there is no border.
15:58That's his plan for the border.
16:00He said to me one time, he said, we just need to put more money into these communities.
16:04They want to put money into the symptoms rather than solving the problem.
16:07It's not hard.
16:08Like Donald Trump, you're very friendly with Donald Trump.
16:11Just look at the numbers.
16:12These are the amount of people that tried to cross Donald Trump.
16:14These are the amount of people who made it across under Joe Biden.
16:17The numbers are conclusive.
16:18Well, on Saturday, he was showing those charts when they tried to take him out.
16:25He said-
16:26Thank God he was showing those charts, because he turned his head at the last second, and
16:29he looked at it.
16:30But the lowest number of illegal crossers under President Trump, now the highest we've
16:34ever seen.
16:3512 million people in.
16:36Dan, I've got kids.
16:37I've got a 19 and 21-year-old.
16:39They're being priced out of housing.
16:4012 million people coming in have to be put up somewhere.
16:42Our tax dollars are paying for it.
16:44They're taking jobs.
16:46They're depressing the wages of hardworking, everyday Americans.
16:50This is affecting people who are middle class and struggling the hardest.
16:56We got to turn ... Economically, we got to turn it around.
16:59The border affects the economy.
17:00I know this is a Q&A question-answer, but this is more of kind of a request than a favor.
17:04We've had Jim Jordan on, Speaker Johnson, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and you could potentially,
17:10knock on wood, be a very prominent, important United States senator from a swing state in
17:15a critical position.
17:16We may get 51.
17:18That could be you.
17:19I'm going to be more optimistic.
17:20I want 55.
17:21Oh, I would love even more.
17:23But on my show, I always pretend like we're running 50 points behind.
17:27That's better, because we got to overcome a lot of obstacles.
17:30But I need a favor from you.
17:31Obviously, I have some subject matter expertise.
17:34You don't.
17:35You were in a specific space than I was in regards to this assassination attempt.
17:39Sources are feeding me a lot of information.
17:41Turns out that most of it has now come true.
17:44Days later, people reported, oh, breaking.
17:46It's not breaking.
17:47Our sources told us.
17:49But one of the things I'm really concerned about is a report came out today from a source
17:52of mine that the media is now picking up that there should have been some law enforcement
17:57post on that building, and they didn't show up.
17:59We don't need to get the minutiae here.
18:01I'm asking you as a potential U.S. Senator, can you please, is that Russell Brand singing?
18:08Can you please, if you get into the United States Senate, make sure that these committees
18:13get a hold of the advanced security documents, because they will tell the story about who's
18:18lying and who wasn't.
18:19That's all I want.
18:20We don't need any conspiracy theories.
18:22The paperwork will tell, Carrie, that a guy was supposed to be there or not.
18:27Can you stay on that?
18:29Absolutely.
18:30If there was wrongdoing, not just maladministration or somebody messed up, especially if there
18:37was something worse than that, this is a serious problem.
18:41Oh, my God.
18:42Life or death.
18:43Literally, life or death.
18:44They almost took out our president.
18:47We came so close.
18:48If not for God, if not for a miracle, he would be gone right now.
18:51No question.
18:52And to think we're just going to, oh, we'll get through, you know, ask a few questions.
18:56And the left's making fun of us for talking about divine intervention.
18:59They really think this appeals to sane, you know, independents and middle class Americans
19:04poking fun at us for saying, what other explanation is there for three shots from, that's an easy
19:11shot, Carrie.
19:12I've taken that shot with a handgun at Secret Service training.
19:15That is an easy shot.
19:17They're making fun of us.
19:18Speaker Johnson was talking about it before.
19:19They think this is hilarious.
19:21Look at these idiots with their God and all this other stuff.
19:23They really think this appeals to independents.
19:25Well, I feel sorry for them.
19:27I really do.
19:28Shameful.
19:29I believe purely that it was God.
19:32I've always thought God has had his hand on President Trump.
19:35And I believe that God spared him because we need him right now.
19:38And I've never let the left shame me into being afraid.
19:43No, you've never been known to be timid.
19:45I've known you a long time.
19:47And timid is your thing.
19:48Last question.
19:49I know you've got to run.
19:50By the way, I don't have expertise in the Secret Service like you do.
19:54I recognize that you don't have the president speaking across from a building with a rooftop.
19:59It's unsecure.
20:01My wife said the same thing.
20:02She's like, you know, Dan, I'm a web database developer.
20:04Shouldn't they have that covered?
20:05The answer is yes, of course.
20:06I really want the president to be safe the next, I want him to be safe forever.
20:11But I'm really worried that this is not going to be the last attempt.
20:14This isn't even just about Donald Trump, everyone.
20:16Can you do him inside?
20:18I don't want any more risk because we need him so badly and we need to protect him.
20:23And I felt that everybody behind him, I was looking at the pictures of people, and I've
20:26been to so many rallies, they're the most uplifting, wonderful.
20:29You leave just feeling energized and ready to take on the world and solve the problems.
20:33Especially here, this RNC is insane.
20:34The energy is incredible.
20:35I feel that everybody there would have jumped in front of a bullet for him.
20:38I would jump in front of a bullet for him.
20:39We saw that their first reaction was to flip off the shooter.
20:42Last question for you.
20:44It should be for every American.
20:45Why it isn't is frankly bizarre.
20:48Are you comfortable if you get elected U.S. Senator from Arizona, we're talking to Kerry
20:51Lake, that the Republican agenda on the Senate side, I'm watching my chat right now.
20:57These people are really, really furious about the voting systems in the United States and
21:01the lack of security.
21:02I don't know that there's anybody more furious than me.
21:04I've lived it.
21:05The SAVE Act.
21:06The SAVE Act is incredible.
21:07I think President Trump's right.
21:10We don't have the majority in the Senate.
21:12It got stuck.
21:13Schumer, of course he's not going to push that.
21:15We need to attach that to every spending bill.
21:17Force these people to care about our election integrity.
21:20They can't win with their disastrous policies.
21:23They know it.
21:24They can't win unless they ... That's why we went from election day to election week
21:28to election month.
21:29Now election season.
21:30They count for two weeks.
21:31We want to clean up.
21:32I heard someone say on stage at the RNC just yesterday, I forget who it was, early voting
21:36starts in a little over 60 days.
21:39I'm thinking to myself, that is unbelievable.
21:44Can we just have a national election day?
21:46Everybody gets their day off.
21:48Show up with your ID.
21:49This isn't hard, man.
21:50I mean, none of this ... We're the United States of America.
21:54You're telling me we can't do this?
21:55The people want it.
21:57Even the Democrats, again, get back to the polling that we've seen.
21:59Even Democrats believe that our elections are fraudulent.
22:02Come on.
22:03Yeah.
22:04I don't think any sound safe person would do that.
22:06Just to answer that question, I vow to you and to your listeners and to the American
22:10people- Vow.
22:11I appreciate that.
22:12... that that'll be a huge priority for me.
22:15I want to see our elections get back, and for my own children.
22:18We don't want an on level playing field.
22:20I don't want it to where, okay, now we've got Republicans and now the Republicans are
22:24going to get the advantage in our elections.
22:26Elections should be fair.
22:27Yeah.
22:28That should never even come up.
22:29Yep.
22:30Absolutely.

22:48You know what?
22:49They appreciate that too.
22:50Too many of these people come on here and they ask for money and they're not sensitive
22:52to that.
22:53That was very nice of you to say.
22:54You know what?
22:55What I do want is-
22:56And I appreciate that.
22:57... I want your prayers.
22:58I want your prayers.

24:46A couple people here have commented, have they not keyed, like, man, you're in pretty
24:50good shape.
24:51Well, thank you.
24:52I appreciate that.
24:53I work hard.
24:54I also take Lean.
24:55Everybody's talking about these weight loss injections because the results are so dramatic,
24:58right?
24:59They help lower blood sugar and reduce appetites.
25:01But what if you need to lose weight, but you don't have the money, and you don't like weekly

25:50Now back to the show.
25:51Fairly well.
25:52I got a special guest.
25:53Come on over here.
25:54We've got the great Rachel Campos-Duffy, who Tucker says he used to work with her somewhere.
25:59I don't know.
26:00I don't know anybody.
26:01Not that I work with her.
26:02Don says he knows her too.
26:03She's my favorite.
26:04He's the one person I watch.
26:05He's the best.
26:06We love Rachel.
26:07She's the best.
26:08Rachel, welcome to the show.
26:09So I'm going to get your thoughts on this too.
26:10She is the bravest, actually.
26:11She has got cojones bigger than her.
26:12She's very impressive.
26:13So we love Rachel.
26:14But I'm going to ask you all, so I'll start with you, Tucker, and then I'll let you go.
26:16I really appreciate you doing this, by the way.
26:18You're a man of your word.
26:19Sorry, I was looking for my nephew sitting right there.
26:20Everyone is in the Bungina studio.
26:21Is this your nephew here?
26:23That's my nephew, Charles Carlson, right there.
26:24Nice to meet you, brother.
26:25Good-looking guy.
26:26Nice to meet you, brother.
26:27Handsome kid.
26:28The Swedes are good-looking people, if I can say that.
26:29Better looking than all of us.
26:30Maybe not Don.
26:31No, no, no.
26:32So obviously the polls, you know, polls, whatever, but the polls are trending in a really bad
26:37direction for Biden.
26:39So I'll start with you, Tucker.
26:40There's been an October surprise every midterm in elections since 2016.
26:45Any idea about what it could be this time around?
26:47I mean, it could be anything from Donald Trump's handing Ukraine to Trump because he's him
26:52and Don Jr. working on a real estate project.
26:54Like, really?
26:55When did that?
26:56I mean, any idea what that could be?
26:57I have no idea.
26:58All I know is, and I didn't know this until this morning, that actually it was Iran.
27:01It was Iran.
27:02Isn't it incredible, by the way, how that leaked?
27:03It was Iran.
27:04I thought it was the Iranians.
27:05Isn't it?
27:06How that leaked?
27:07You know, I have felt for many years that the real threat to me was Iran.
27:12They're always calling me racist and flooding my country with illegal aliens.
27:15They're pumping fentanyl in.
27:16Yeah.
27:17What's the October surprise?
27:18Of course, it's war, probably war with Iran.
27:21But I still don't think, and I'm totally opposed to that, actually, and I'm not pro-Iran, but
27:27Iran is irrelevant to the country that I live in, which is collapsing in a lot of ways that
27:31have nothing to do with Iran.
27:32So don't tell me Iran is the biggest problem, okay, or Putin is the biggest problem.
27:35That's not true.
27:36I live here.
27:38That's not true.
27:39Those may be problems or whatever, you know, you can worry about that, but those are not
27:42the pressing problems.
27:43And anyone who tells you they are the pressing problems is a liar, A. B, because it's just
27:49so obviously false.
27:50No one will ever believe in democracy again.
27:52Biden is non-compass menace.
27:54He appears to have Parkinson's or some neurological disorder, but that's obvious.
27:57It's not even debated anymore.
27:59And Trump just got shot in the face and stood up, like pushed off the Secret Service to
28:03stand with blood streaming at his face and said, fight.
28:07That's the leader.
28:09That's the comatose patient.
28:12There's no way you can do that.
28:14It's not just in America, but to the world.
28:15Not one person on the entire planet, billions of people believe that.
28:18So I don't think they can do it.
28:19Yeah.
28:20Rachel, I actually want to give this over to Don because I actually have a question
28:24related to that.
28:25And then I want to ask if you don't mind, Tucker, something you can do whatever you
28:29want.
28:30You're the great.
28:31We're just having a coffee.
28:32Just take on Don.
28:35What else can they do?
28:36I mean, I think the impeachment didn't work.
28:40Then they tried, you know, taking his businesses away.
28:42Then they find him half a billion dollars for paying back bank loans with interest on
28:47time.
28:48That was more business.
28:49Yeah.
28:50The banks are literally the bank is on the stand.
28:51They were witnesses for him.
28:52No.
28:53We want to do more business with Trump.
28:54We got other business with like, we'd love to do more.
28:55Like, they're like, no, no, no.
28:56You are a victim.
28:57I mean, everything's a victim.
28:58You know, then when that doesn't work, they try to throw him in jail.
28:59They've been trying to do that for quite some time.
29:00They tried to do the same to me because, you know, apparently I was an agent of Russia.
29:01I was an agent of Russia.
29:02I was an agent of Russia.
29:03I was an agent of Russia.

32:38I was an agent of Russia.
32:39I was an agent of Russia.
32:40I don't think Trump will lose.
32:42I'm a terrible predictor of things beyond my ability.
32:46But I think in this case, it's just impossible to believe it.
32:49And also, can I just be honest?
32:51For the last whatever, it's been eight years, it's been kind of Trump alone against every
32:57power center in the world.
32:59And that's no longer true.
33:01That's changing really.
33:02Elon Musk, within 10 minutes of Trump being shot, endorsed Trump, richest man in the world,
33:06by your former guest who was sitting right here, David Sachs, Andreessen Horowitz, biggest
33:12venture capital firm in the world.
33:14We're going to send money.
33:15I mean, it's like all of a sudden, it's okay for people who have an awful lot to lose to
33:20be on Trump's side.
33:22It's hard to overstate how powerful that is.
33:24It's like all of a sudden, the stigma of supporting Trump, the only reason they've gotten this
33:27far in persecuting Trump is because normal people are not allowed just to object to it.
33:32Yeah, people have been made to be afraid.
33:34It's falling away.
33:35Totally falling away.
33:36People have been made to be afraid, right?
33:37There was a consequence to being a vocal Trump supporter.
33:40Once you had enough people stand up, it became easy for everyone else.
33:44And once you had that critical mass, it became impossible for them to go after him.
33:48Exactly.
33:49And it's almost, it's a corollary to when Trump gets shot in the face and stands up
33:52anyway, it gives everybody heart.
33:54It makes everybody courageous, watching the leader be courageous.
33:58When Elon Musk stands up, when David Sachs, who's a huge deal in the tech world, stands
34:02up, when Andreessen Horowitz, huge deal in the tech world.
34:06The biggest deal in the tech world.
34:07When they stand up, everyone else is like, you know what?
34:09I'm brave now too.
34:10And I think that's how movements start.
34:12That's how things change.
34:13And I think it's too far along to stop it.
34:14It's not just people who are afraid of losing their job or putting a sign in front of their
34:19house because, you know, they have a small business and they're afraid they'll be persecuted.
34:23Right after that moment happened, I got a text from a very nice lady in my church.
34:28And she said, I'm so upset.
34:30I'm so sad.
34:31I'm praying.
34:32And she said, I'm done being quiet.
34:34And there were a lot of people that just out of politeness, because that's how so many
34:38conservatives are.
34:39I'm not one of those people, but there's a lot of people like that.
34:42And I thought that was so, to me, that was one of the most interesting texts.
34:46I'm done being quiet.
34:47And she's a, you know, an older, you know, very classy lady.
34:52And she just said, I'm done.
34:53I'm done caring about what other people's feelings are.
34:55They don't give a damn about our feelings.
34:57And so that's where she's at right now.
35:00The TikToks I'm seeing, the Gen Z is actually actually where we're making the biggest ground.
35:04Because they realize, like, they have no future.
35:07You know, they'll never own a home.
35:09How old is Gen Z?
35:11It's that, you know, I guess, you know, the 18 to 20.
35:14I never meet any liberals in that.
35:18It's hard to believe, actually, because that's sort of, you know, they've been indoctrinated
35:22from as from childhood.
35:23They've been, you know, they've from kindergarten on, their teachers are pushing them.
35:27They push that way by Hollywood.
35:28They're pushed that way by me.
35:29And yet they're like.
35:30You might be friendly with the now guys.
35:33They're not overly political at all, but they are definitely not what you take for a lot
35:37of kids and a lot of nieces and nephews.
35:39I've got one sitting right there.
35:40And I mean, maybe the people wind up at my house are like self-selected or maybe they
35:44are.
35:45But no, I'm serious.
35:46They're all kind of pretty normal from normal families.
35:49I never meet anybody who's like, you know, trans rights, the most important thing.
35:53I see like 22 year old girls be like, the training thing is driving me crazy, actually.
35:57It's too insulting to women or like they're just sort of sick.
35:59Doesn't mean the right wingers, but they're absolutely sick of the pointless silliness
36:03of liberalism because it's it's zero sum.
36:06It's a freaking cul-de-sac.
36:07It doesn't go anywhere.
36:08So I had another great guest lined up for you right now, Congressman Jim Jordan.
36:13But Russell Brand over there stole my guest and he had to go to the bathroom.
36:18Russell's he fleeced them cold.
36:21Still I stole my guest.
36:23Yeah.
36:24Until Jim Jordan.
36:25Yes.
36:26Sit down.
36:27Russell Brand.
36:28Now, because Russell stole my guest.
36:29He's supposed to be my guest on radio.
36:31So this is Russell Brand, one of the funniest guys you will ever meet, but a guy who really
36:35has been blowing up on Rumble because you've got a podcast there and you've been speaking
36:40some truth over there, Russell.
36:42So you fleeced my guest, which was OK, because I love you.
36:45Thank you very much for forgiving me.
36:47Jimmy's currently in the bathroom where you were literally in the bathroom where we did
36:51meet and he walked in and what did I say to you in the bathroom?
36:54You said, I appreciate you keeping that distance.
36:57And you've got very good bathroom etiquette.
36:59And you said, as long as you don't ask to look at my watch while we're in this position.
37:02That is exactly what happened.
37:06Russell understands your little courtesy better than anyone else.
37:10There's like 20 of these things lined up.
37:12He goes to the exact end, hugging the wall.
37:15I'm like, very good job, Russell.
37:17But I had you on my podcast earlier.
37:19Your show is blowing up.
37:20How can people find you on Rumble?
37:22Because I'm going to be on your show later in the week.
37:23I'm really very much looking forward to speaking with you there.
37:27You're on Central Time at the moment.
37:28I'm on at 11.
37:29I'm at nine o'clock on Eastern Time.
37:33What I really enjoy about being on Rumble is sharing an audience with you because you've
37:37developed something quite extraordinary here.
37:39I think sort of still there are people that are as yet unaware of the kind of phenomena
37:44that you have cultivated and you're reaching people in a way that is reminiscent.
37:48I went on Joe Rogan's podcast, maybe in the first 500 of them.
37:54And I remember sort of the sense of our media is migrating in this direction.
37:58And I think that you are similarly capturing an audience for your own authenticity.
38:03Thank you, my friend.
38:04Thank you so much.
38:05Now that my guest is back.
38:06Jim, I've been filling in for you there.
38:07I don't know anything about hearing committees.
38:08Why don't you take Fauci to task?
38:09Tell us about wrestling.
38:14Thank you, Russell.
38:15You're the best.
38:16Do we go from Russell Brand to my good friend?
38:19That is great.
38:20I said, listen, you got to fill in.
38:21A poor guy has to run to the bathroom.
38:22What are we going to do?
38:24Too much coffee, not enough food to this day, and I haven't worked out yet.
38:29I worked out last night.
38:31So listen, a question for you, I mean, obviously, this was a really disgusting, gross moment
38:39in American history.
38:40We all wish we could forget.
38:41We almost lost our good friend and an ally to the Republican Party, our nominee, President
38:46Trump this weekend.
38:47I asked Marjorie Taylor Greene before she was on the show, you are a senior member of
38:51Congress right now.
38:52You're a very powerful man running powerful committees.
38:56Is this going to, this is serious.
38:57This isn't about a tax cut, which I get it is serious stuff, but this is literally life
39:02or death.
39:03I'm really hoping, Congressman, this doesn't degenerate into three minute speeches about
39:08how great people were.
39:10We have to ask serious questions.
39:12Are you confident that this is going to happen?
39:13No one wants filibustering during this hearing.
39:16Yeah, I hope so.
39:17I really do.
39:18And we had a briefing from Ranking Member Nadler, myself, and some of our staff had
39:22a briefing from some of the FBI yesterday.
39:25And look, I think there's a healthy skepticism.
39:28Is the FBI really going to investigate?
39:31I mean, I know you shared that, but there's some fundamental questions.
39:34And I got to tell you, thank you for, well, thank you for all the good work you do.
39:37But I watched your interview on Fox where you laid out things, concerns, because you're
39:42an expert in this area.
39:43I'm not.
39:44But everything you said made just so much sense to me.
39:46The fundamental question I have is, there's a finite number of buildings in that area
39:52that had to be secured.
39:54It's not a huge number.
39:55Is it two, three, four?
39:57It wasn't times square.
39:59No, there's a relatively small number.
40:02And we know one of them that needed to be secured was, because we had the good snipers,
40:05the counter snipers, who actually took out the bad guy, were on one of them.
40:08So was it three buildings?
40:10Was it two other buildings?
40:12Whatever that number is, the question is, why weren't they secured?
40:17That to me is sort of the fundamental question.
40:18Then I want to, hopefully at some point, our committee gets to talk to the local officer
40:25who had this brief encounter with the bad guy.
40:28I'd love to talk to the Secret Service agent who took the shot and took out the bad guy.
40:31I mean, those are all questions and concerns and areas I think we need answers to.
40:36So let's hope the FBI does it.
40:37But I'm a little concerned, because this is the same FBI that still hasn't told us who
40:43planted the pipe bombs on January 6th.
40:46Same FBI.
40:47Exactly.
40:48Same administration can't tell us who leaked the Dobbs opinion.
40:50Same administration can't tell us who put cocaine at the White House.
40:53Well, Congressman, the cocaine at the White House thing, we have the text from the Secret
40:59Service on January 6th that mysteriously disappeared, claiming there was a tech swap on January
41:036th.
41:04I mean, listen, I don't say things I can't back up.
41:07It's irresponsible, and frankly, you wind up, people lose faith in you.
41:11But these are legitimate questions.
41:12What do you mean you don't have the text?
41:14So I get it.
41:15I have a skepticism of the FBI.
41:17I honestly, candidly hope they prove me wrong.
41:20But really, as a member of Congress, I hope Congress proves me wrong.
41:23You're one of my friends.
41:24You're one of the good guys.
41:25But listen, the Republican Party, not everybody's intentions are pure.
41:29We can't screw around with this.
41:30The first question I want asked, again, no filibustering.
41:34This isn't the time for this partisan stuff.
41:36Go to my website, donate.
41:38Why was Donald Trump on the stage?
41:40They saw this surreptitious, furtive acting guy 26 minutes before he walked on stage.
41:47Delay his speech five minutes.
41:49Find the guy.
41:50I mean, it's common sense, right?
41:52It sure is total common sense.
41:54So yeah, I think, why weren't they secured?
41:57I want to talk to that, both the bad guy, the cop who encountered the bad guy, and your
42:02question there.
42:03Once you saw that there was something that didn't make sense, get the president off the
42:08stage and go figure it out.
42:10So I think all that makes so much sense, and those are the kind of things that we're going
42:15to try to get there.
42:16We have Director Wray in next week.
42:17I don't know how much he'll know by that point, but I told him on the call, I told the individuals
42:22on the call yesterday from the FBI, we had the deputy director, and I said, you know,
42:28Director Wray needs to be able to answer as many questions as he possibly can in front
42:32of our committee next week.
42:34I mean, Congressman, we're talking to Congressman Jim Jordan, people are losing faith in institutions
42:39left and right.
42:40Yeah.
42:41The leadership of our military, you know, not the front line guys putting their lives
42:44on the line, but the leadership of our military, you know, our FBI, our Secret Service now,
42:49and the republic, it's a system of kind of trust and confidence, which is ironically
42:54the Secret Service's motto, worthy of trust and confidence.
42:56Once that collapses, anarchy is soon to follow.
43:00So when people ask simple questions like this, so I have a first degree contact, not
43:05a second one.
43:06I'm someone who is right there, who has told me repeatedly they've asked the Secret Service
43:11for an enhanced security footprint around President Trump.
43:14I know who it is.
43:16That person needs to speak up.
43:18They were rebuffed.
43:20So Alejandro Mayorkas is lying.
43:22He is 100% lying.
43:24But what I find more disturbing is he came out, I played the cut before in the show and
43:28said, we're not lying.
43:29We gave them everything they wanted.
43:30I would almost rather you be lying because you're telling me you gave them everything
43:34they wanted.
43:35There was no drone there.
43:36This still happened last Saturday.
43:37Yeah.
43:38Good point.
43:39Well, I don't know that many people have a whole lot of faith in things Secretary Mayorkas
43:43said.
43:44He's the same guy told us the border was secure.
43:47But yet to your point, this is serious, serious business.
43:50And if those guys who jumped on the stage and protected the president when it happened,
43:56if they're saying, hey, we need more and it wasn't given to them and you have an eyewitness
44:02who says it wasn't, that is wrong.
44:05That is just dead wrong.
44:06I think what Mayorkas is doing.
44:08One thing about Mayorkas, devious, a malicious guy.
44:11I don't trust him as far as I can throw him, but he's very good at wordsmithing.
44:15Christopher Wray does the same thing.
44:17It seems like they all are.
44:19That's their thing.
44:20They're politicians.
44:21They're not necessarily acting in that role.
44:23And what he's going to do is he's going to play with the timeline.
44:26He's going to say, well, they weren't asked about this specific event on this date, but
44:31there's been constant requests from people close to President Trump for more security.
44:35Now, here's, again, an issue I asked Marjorie about, you would have probably even better
44:40insight on.
44:41We have a bloated, fat, grotesque, overspending government that spends $6 trillion a year
44:48while taking in four.
44:50Are we seriously going to say to the world right now, because Mayorkas and the Secret
44:55Service said, this is the best we had, we gave them the best technology.
44:58Really?
44:59I found a drone on Amazon for $39.99.
45:02We can't put a drone out there to see this guy on the roof?
45:05We have a $6 trillion budget.
45:07No kidding.
45:08No, none of this makes sense.
45:12The fact that the video I've seen where their supporters there, attendees at the rally who
45:18were saying, there's the guy there.
45:21I saw a report today where it says it was almost, I think, about 90 seconds later before
45:25the first shot was taken.
45:30What happened in those 90 seconds?
45:32We need a TikTok of that.
45:34What happened there?
45:35So yeah, I don't get it, particularly when you're thinking about someone like President
45:39Trump, where so well-known, former president, leading in all the polls, it's like, really?
45:47And his team asked for more people, and you didn't provide them?
45:50I don't understand.
45:51You're going to have to subpoena everyone.
45:52Congressman, I want to get, obviously, your take on J.D. Vance, but we'll close it out
45:57on this.
45:58You know, a lot of my listeners, they speak to me.
46:00I relay a lot of that information.
46:02You guys have constituents.
46:03If they have concerns, I'm going to tell you what they are.
46:05That's your job.
46:06And it's my job as a radio host and a conservative to listen to them.
46:10They're really tired of the shenanigans, and I think we can all agree, this isn't one of
46:14those moments.
46:15This isn't about a tax cut.
46:17It's not about a school choice bill.
46:18Those are great and important things I've dedicated my life to.
46:22If this is allowed to continue, we will lose the president, or soon-to-be president, or
46:27the president now.
46:28We don't want any of this political violence.
46:30Please, in this hearing, keep these guys, coordinate the questions, no filibustering,
46:37no campaign website.
46:38I know that's true.
46:39Yeah, we tried it.
46:40We tried it.
46:41I mean, we actually tried to do that.
46:42We're one committee.
46:44We have good members on our committee.
46:45We try to sequence how they do it.
46:47We try to say, where are you going to go?
46:48Tell a story.
46:49Yeah, yeah.
46:50Set it up, question by question.
46:51Yep.
46:52You know, sequence of events, multiple failures.
46:55Why is there a different PT test for men and women?
46:57The job's the same.
46:59President Trump weighs a certain amount, and he's this height.
47:01Yeah.
47:02Why are there different PTs?
47:03Can you just explain it to me?
47:04Right.
47:05No, when the women are on duty, he gets lighter.
47:07Oh, he does?
47:08How does that work?
47:09I don't understand.
47:10You know, you can have different PT standards for an engineer who does a different job on
47:14an assembly line.
47:15Yeah.
47:16It's literally the same job.
47:17This isn't a male-female thing.
47:18If there's a female who can meet the PT standards, fantastic, but why are you and I, at 50 plus,
47:26in the gym working out?
47:27I'm not in the Secret Service no more.
47:29You're telling me you can't get fit people around the president?
47:32Yeah.
47:33Yeah.
47:34Yeah, you sort of saw some of that when they swarmed the president.
47:38I think there's going to be lots of questions for Director Wray.
47:42And then Chairman Comer's got the secretary herself, or Director Cheadle coming in as
47:49well.
47:50He's working on that in the Oversight Committee.
47:51That'll be an important hearing as well.
47:53Yeah, she should resign, in my opinion, immediately.
47:56J.D. Vance, I think it was a great pick.
47:59I agree.
48:00I mean, you know that state kind of well.
48:01I heard a rumor.
48:02You may be from there, right?
48:04I think he's a great pick.
48:06I think the golden rule of VP picks, I'd love to get your take on this, is first, do no
48:10harm.
48:11J.D. does very little harm.
48:12I mean, the Democrats will pick some nonsense out, but he brings a lot of positives.
48:16Young, energetic, a bulldog, but contrasting styles with President Trump, and speaks the
48:21language of the working class man.
48:23I mean, wrote a bestselling book about it.
48:24Your thoughts?
48:25No, he's the American dream.
48:28A kid from the humblest of homes is now, I think, going to be the next vice president
48:33of the greatest country in history.
48:35That happens in America.
48:37That's the American story.
48:40There's also this, just a simple old line that it never hurts to have smart people in
48:47charge, right?
48:48Right.
48:49President Trump is, well, you've been around him.
48:50He's one sharp guy.
48:51Oh, yeah.
48:52One sharp guy.
48:53He'll surprise you with stuff.
48:54He is one sharp guy.
48:55In memory, that's unbelievable.
48:56J.D. Vance, he's a smart guy.
48:58I love J.D.
48:59I mean, watch him on Meet the Press a week and a half ago, the Sunday.
49:03Quick on his feet, too.
49:04Oh, my goodness.
49:05Yeah.
49:06So good.
49:07So good.
49:08He does his homework.
49:09And in a matter of fact way, just presents the argument that is so compelling.
49:13No, he's a great pick.
49:15We had that pick yesterday afternoon.
49:16Then you saw President Trump walk out last night at 10 o'clock, the energy in the arena
49:21after what President Trump had been through on Saturday.
49:25Just amazing.
49:26I tell everyone all the time, Congressman, political campaigns are snapshots and sound
49:30bites.
49:31That's it.
49:32No one's reading the white papers.
49:33It's a picture of him with his fist raised.
49:35Unbelievable.
49:36It's going to go down in American history as one of the most iconic photos you've ever
49:39seen.
49:40It's an American.
49:41What he did is American.
49:42Americans.
49:43I say this all the time when I'm out talking about the president.
49:47I said, President Trump hates to lose.
49:49And that is a good quality.
49:50The best quality.
49:51That is an American quality.
49:53Americans aren't wimpy, sissy losers.
49:55Americans are Americans.
49:56And he displayed that, that winning attitude that has characterized this country for 200
50:02plus years.
50:03And he did it in those few seconds with his fist pumping, saying the word fight.
50:07It was-
50:08You're a fighter too.
50:09You know, I can tell.
50:10You got those cauliflower ears.
50:11Folks, you ever see those, run.
50:13I don't care what they do to you.
50:15I said it to your son.
50:16If that guy throws ice at you in a bar, walk up and thank him if he's got cauliflower ears.
50:20Buy him a beer.
50:21But run away as soon as you can.
50:23Congressman, I got to run.
50:24Congressman Jim Jordan.
50:25God bless you, sir.
50:26Thanks for coming on.
