Summary

Dan Bongino analyzes the Democratic Party's post-election autopsy report, arguing it fails to address the core reason for their losses: telling working-class and white male voters they are the problem while expecting their support. He contrasts this with American exceptionalism and critiques leftist identity politics, cultural relativism, and big government policies.

Insights
  • Democrats' strategy of blaming a nebulous 'white male patriarchy' as a scapegoat while simultaneously asking those voters for support is fundamentally contradictory and politically unsustainable
  • Big government policies produce similar poverty and dysfunction outcomes regardless of demographic composition (illustrated by Martin County, KY vs. Baltimore comparison), suggesting the problem is governance, not identity
  • Social media engagement metrics (ratios, likes) are not representative of real-world voter sentiment or priorities, creating false confidence among progressive activists
  • American exceptionalism—built on constitutional protections of freedom and liberty—is the actual differentiator that attracts global immigration, not cultural relativism or equivalence
  • Birthright citizenship and non-citizen voting represent existential threats to national sovereignty that resonate with voters more than media-amplified culture war issues

I'm like you're damn right they're like a man you know what what do you where you want to go with this I said listen I sent back and he must I got a lot to say on this so I got some feedback on last night's hit they call him in the business a hit and appearance whatever. But I got only two kinds of feedback last night and that's rare people get on Twitter and email. The first time a feedback was. Man that was really awesome love that the second type was my gosh you've got a calm down on TV so I'm going to give you the scoop on why I was so enthusiastic let's just say last night even a friend of mine email me say it was great point but you were talking so fast I I kind of missed out on some of it I want to get to that and a horrifying story that shows you again why our American exceptionalism. America is exceptional all cultures are not the same OK stop the insanity. All right big show for you today if you are a fan of the show in the last few years you know all about my next sponsor course I'm talking about a great company helps me sleep at night being be a M and they're amazing American made dream powder. I'm glad to be back on the air with all you and listen I'm back on the air means being dream is back with me. You know I used to toss and turn at night talked about all the time not the best sleeper but now we dream I sleep through the night wake up ready clear headed and energized is probably why I was so energized last night to dream is made with a powerful blend of all natural ingredients at work. Rashi magnesium L. Theanine appa Jenin and Melatonin they all have their role best part is it tastes amazing.

All right fellas by the way you know I like life hacks if you're seeing a little blue tint on my tongue just a jazz moves like that you eat a smurf no I don't eat smurfs they're not real. It's just a cartoon it's the methylene blue so I'm okay you don't need a doctor's diagnosis I just usually take it a little earlier but it took a little later today just was like how did we miss that one Mike I don't know you guys better pay more attention in the future I don't know so. Ladies and gentlemen. No we are not the same OK we the United States of America. America USA we are not the same as everybody else OK we have devise this very unique system and when you look at the scope of humankind and sense sentient beings homo sapiens sapiens right. We are the most successful model of human freedom ever invented since we could say I think therefore I am there is no comparison there is another side of the political isle the left that wants you to believe that there's nothing particularly special about this place that we should lower our standards and lower our values and that other people are just victims around the world and that all cultures are the same it's as cultural relativism nonsense no we are not the same I am not going to let them turn us into them we're not doing it all people are children of God it's not a reflection on human dignity I'm just telling you if you take a person from Afghanistan or Pakistan living in third world subsistence poverty and you put them in the United States from birth I can almost promise you that very same person is going to succeed it's not the person it's the system and our system is the freaking best. Don't tell your kids or teach your kids otherwise there is a reason people want to come here. We don't have an immigration problem we have an immigration problem. People want to come in here and they want to bypass the rules because they're so eager to get in here. So I go on Laura's show last night she's great she basically just hands me this football to run with which I love and the reason I was so enthusiastic last night on the air is since I come back from the FBI in that year there. I've been doing a lot of Fox and I've been doing a lot of appearances on law enforcement issues and terror cases and things like that I mean understandably I you know was running the FBI with cash it's probably a good input to get the guy who was doing it. However I got to tell you I really not that I don't like talking about that stuff. My heart is in being an activist folks. My heart is in being an activist microphone is a powerful thing. The most you know elusive yet powerful superpower in the world is the power to command attention make no mistake. It's not a position it's that. I miss being an activist so when I got this is the first appearance I've done I think back on Fox in 3 months where it was about an issue basically outside of law enforcement. It's the ideological fight. So I got some feedback like man you were so you know enthusiastic I missed what you said you got to like tone it down you know we're talking about law enforcement stuff you take it down a notch when I get into this stuff it is my passion it's my entire life is fighting for human freedom and dignity that is my life. That is my life so he was the appearance and I want to hit on a couple of things here. I don't want you to buy the bullshit I want to I rarely show appearances from the night before but because some people might have missed the point I was making I want to make it again here because it's critical check this out. Ironic that they do this autopsy and they're wondering why they have a problem with white male voters and working class male voters of all races that they cause it's almost as if now they're trying to attract them back with goodies it's like they have this club like the we hate white men and working class men club but come inside for free drinks on Tuesday it's like they think manner stupid you spend multiple decades now embedding this critical theory nonsense that knowledge is a construct of power and the white male patriarchy has the power so don't trust them and then when you need them to vote like hey white male guys by the way forget we said all of that and please come in and support us we can take away more of your agency. Well what the liberals figured out is if they blame this that this this like basically this cloud this undefinable cloud of the white male patriarchy that they could create a victim and a perpetrator and it would get people angry enough to forfeit away their money their kids in their health care and it didn't work it didn't work because a lot of these working class men who by the way are Hispanic and black and white as well like wait I got screwed by your big government stuff too. It is so important I'm really sorry I was talking so fast and so excited. I was in a studio van you're in a little like cramped space that's just a television monitor my I wasn't actually in downtown whatever that is that screen by West Palm or whatever it may be it's just a screen behind you in a tight little van and I was so excited about this hit because I'm just dying to get back on the air and talk about anything other than this stuff because it just seems so self serving every time you're on the air talking about FBI so I love talking about this stuff because then it's not about you it's about the bigger fight and that's what I really care about I wanted to make 2 points and maybe now I can get them across and now they have a little bit more time and I thank Laura Engel for giving me the opportunity last night. This is all from the Democrat autopsy that got released yesterday. So the backstory is after they got their asses kicked in the Kamala Harris Donald Trump presidential election they commissioned an autopsy a report on what went wrong. The report was so. Stupid poorly done and basically embarrassing for the Democrats barely even mentions Joe Biden's like clear onset of some form of like dementia doesn't even mention that. That they just tried to hide it. My guess is the DNC bigwigs knew this report was going to leak anyway so they figured let's just rip the band-aid off before Memorial Day. Right Justin. Friday before Memorial Day is not a big news day our audience probably going to be down a little bit today which is fair enough go enjoy your kids you don't you don't need to be here with me I love it but I just like doing the show. But I understand I just like we're supposed to be attracting people to know I know but your family is more important. This is a big weekend. However the Democrats decided they were going to release it before Memorial Day hoping it dies. They released the autopsy and they address none of the actual problems that Democrat Party had the Democrat Party lost the election and continues to get smoke put up that Chris's Elizabeth chart by the way guys terrible at predictions but this he says this is a brutal chart from the DNC autopsy look at the senators from 2009 to 2025 plus 13 Republican Congress plus 41 Republican governors plus 5 Republican state legislators plus 832 Republican state trifectas plus 13 Republican. Folks this is a disaster for the Democrats. The reason they lost is they keep telling white men and working class voters you guys suck you're the problem but by the way come vote for us that's what I meant by the analogy of the club. It's like trying to get people into your bar a club you title the bar white men suck and then you're like a white man buy one get Bogo on Thursday get a free shot at the killer why would they want to go in that club how. Guys is this hard to understand. I invest a lot in companies and sometimes they get these companies on the phone ask my very simple question first what do you do different than other people that adds value the Democrats got you ever going to ask yourself this what do we do differently than the other party adds value and the answer is telling white men that they suck is not value added to them. That is the right that's the only answer the only answers we're not Donald Trump but that's not a marketing pitch a marketing pitch is in telling people what you are in it's telling people what you are. You want to tell people what they are to create a contrast but you also want to create the contrast by telling people what you offer as a value added activity when business school they have this thing you can look it up it's kind of a joke but it's true I mentioned it a thousand times. It's called a B.H.A.G. a big hairy audacious goal what is your company's big hairy audacious goal what do you do. What did the Democrats offer other than white men suck and men's penises in the women's room what do they offer. The other point I was trying to get across. Is that the modern Democrat Party is about control it is not about helping you please if you're a Democrat listening please listen to me I can't tell you how many times I'm at a concert or some any former Democrat comes up to me is like man I heard your show or a clip of your show we use some clipping and things which is fine want to watch it on I don't really care I'm an activist first right I just want to point out there they go man you open my eyes thank you God bless you that means more to me than anything what are they offering you everything with the Democrats is taking from you. Give me more of your money give me control of your kids education give me control over your health care give me control over the price of rent if you're a landlord you charge your renters give me control of your business to regulation what are they offering you listen to me Democrats this message is for you Republicans you can tune out although I hope you don't what are they offering to give you. Anyone. They're only offering to take. And the way they hide the take and the steel and the grift and the theft of taking away your education liberty your money your business regulating you to death and taking your freedom away because you got to answer the government the way they disguise the whole thing and and basically put the don't pay attention to the wizard. And get you to feel like you're being gifted something. Is by blaming someone for hurting you. So you feel bad you feel like you should have gotten a job someone else did clearly the patriarchy did it we're going to come and save you and it's like an enemy me and my enemies my friend I'm sorry if this is getting deep but this is a show that's long overdue. They are your enemy. The Democrats but if they can get you to believe there's a bigger enemy out there they want you to believe that the enemy of the enemy is your friend and that's them they're going to stop the white male patriarchy. They did it. The white male patriarchy. But here's the kick in the balls I referenced an article last night on Laura Ingram show ladies and gentlemen this article is stuck with me for 11 years now. This is one of the first articles I think I ever mentioned on one of the I think the month the first month or so I was involved in my podcast. You can look it up it's still there it's at the Wall Street Journal WSJ dot com it's by William McGurney still writes there and it's called Baltimore is not about race I have the article here I want to show you this I want to show you why this is a big freaking scam this Democrat autopsy avoided all of the real problems of the Democrat Party. We hate white men and we tried this bullshit scam blaming every problem on them. We told people we were going to protect them against the white men and then the white men in working class revolted against us and they're like shocked. Here's the article it's called Baltimore is not about race. What's the real problem in your life. Big government it has nothing to do with race. This is genius McGurn compares rural Martin County, Kentucky which is largely white and urban Baltimore which is largely black. Martin County, Kentucky back at the time supported Romney. Baltimore supported Obama. He notes Martin County is 92% white. This is Kentucky not Justin's like we live in Martin on not Florida can thank 92% white Baltimore is two thirds black. Each has seen important sources of good paying jobs dry up Martin County and coal mining Baltimore and manufacturing. They know it in the last presidential election Martin County largely white voted for Romney six to one Baltimore voted nine to one for Obama. But they have the same problems. So what's the common denominator? Is it the patriarchy because it seems like the white men in Martin County are getting f'd over to. He goes on in the piece bookmark this and show it to your liberal friends who are probably too stupid the processes. He notes the great society's legacy has been depressingly similar in a remarkable dispatch two years ago. This person noted that the war on poverty sent two billion dollars to Martin County alone through programs including welfare, food stamps, jobless benefits, disability compensation, school subsidies, affordable housing, worker training, economic development incentives, Head Start, expanded social security, Medicaid, Medicare and they have the exact same poverty, public education, health care and lack of jobs crisis as Baltimore, which had the big heavy hand of government inject themselves into that community too. Ladies and gentlemen, don't let the liberals bullshit and lie to you at least make them be honest. If you want a welfare state and the government taking away all of your so-called problems and solving the problem of the white male patriarchy, they are only going to cause a new set of problems in your community by engendering a sense of apathy for people who feel like they don't have to work because big daddy government is going to fix everything while they eff everything up. Europe has already tried this. Joseph Sternberg wrote a piece two, three weeks ago at the Wall Street Journal, we covered on the show about how Europe is poor and they don't want to admit it. Europe is poor. Sternberg wrote the piece, we covered it. He showed how when you ask Europeans, leave the title of pieces, Europe can be poor if it wants, but does it? The premise of Sternberg's piece is very simple. When you ask Europeans, Western Europeans and you say to them, hey man, compare yourselves to a state in the United States. How wealthy are you compared to how wealthy is say the UK compared to states in the United States? They rate themselves at the top. They're like, yeah, we're probably after like New York, California and Texas. You are not. You're down at the bottom. The poorest United States, the poorest states in the United States, you are at or below them. They were stunned to hear this. Our poorest states are richer than you. The Europeans couldn't believe it. Sternberg writes his piece. It's an eruption. Put that headline back up again. So now he writes a comeback piece saying, hey, listen, I know this piece pissed a lot of you off that Europe's poor, but it's not my fault. It's your fault. The numbers don't lie. Again, the piece is called Europe can be poor if it wants, but does it? And what he's saying here is Europeans and European leaders, the ECB and others and all of them, the IMF and all these people, these international NGOs and global operations. Just tell Europeans the truth. You want big government, you're going to be poor. You want limited government, rugged individualism and free markets. You'll be rich. They don't want to tell them that. They're telling people the same thing they told people in Martin County, Kentucky and Baltimore. We're going to tax the shit out of you. We're going to bring free government is going to solve all your problems. You're going to have a nanny state and you're going to be rich too. You are not. You can be prosperous or you can have big government. You cannot have both. And the Democrat autopsy addressed none of that. They know you can't have both, but they distract you from the obvious. You would think smart people in the Democrat Party would be saying, wait, the bigger our government gets the shittier the outcome. We're spending $41,000 per student to educate someone in New York. And we have some of the worst results in the entire organized industrially competent world. Where are the scientists going? Hey, there seems to be a correlation there. The answer is they're not because they're all distracted with the white man did it, the white male patriarchy did it and suckers fall for it because it's like I said last night in Ingram, you that movie, a few good men. The best part of the movie is Tom Cruise telling people that the courts aren't about innocence or guilt. They're about who to blame. If it's not your guy and you're defending him, you better find someone else. It's about who to blame. The Democrats figured out we can't have people blaming our big government policy. So what are we going to do? We're going to distract people by blaming the white male and they never expected the white male to revolt against them. And that is entirely overlooked in the Democrat autopsy. I got more of this coming up. I got just absolutely killer hits on about this, this exact topic. And I'm going to show you something interesting about the autopsy too. How even in the Democrat autopsy of why Kamala lost, they can't acknowledge the obvious that Kamala Harris was uniquely awful as a candidate after another uniquely awful candidate, Joe Biden. And that word unique is doing a lot of work there. All right, let me take a quick break and I'm going to show you how they tried to hide the autopsy and they waited to Memorial Day weekend. Why? Because they didn't want it. They didn't want it out there. That's why they wanted to hide the damn thing. All right. Today's show also brought to you by our friends at SuperShore.

They're not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, prevent any disease or condition. So here was Fox coverage yesterday. They released the autopsy report. They had tried to hide and bury this thing. They do it on Memorial Day weekend because none of it addresses the core of the Democrat problem. The core of the Democrat problem is they hate you. If you work for a living and you believe that there are men and women, they can't stand you and they expected you to show up despite the fact that they hate you. Check this out. CNN says it's gotten its hands on this thing and what they're purporting that it is. It talks about a lot of different things in here. They say Democrats have lost ground at every level from inconsistent messaging and improper planning. They talk about funding and not equipping their state parties. And, you know, the document I'm looking at goes on a deep dive through a number of state races, I mean, down to the attorney general level and looking at where things matched and didn't match with messaging and voting. And they said, you know, in some of these cases that you couldn't just have a message that we're anti-Trump. It's we hate President Trump or he's not good for us. He's not good for the country. You have to have your own independent messaging. So it's nearly 200 pages. We're starting to dig through it and we like to independently verify it ourselves as well. There's going to be a lot of reaction. David Axelrod is already out there. He called this a needless waste of time. The needless waste of time. They tried to bury this thing because it's bullshit. I mean, just didn't spend enough money messaging. No, you got messaging out there. They were like, Hey, let's put a penis in the women's room and tell white men they suck. That was your messaging. It failed. That's why you got your ass kicked in every swing state. That's why. Now, I want to stay on this, but one of the most. I hilarious comical portions of this autopsy. Will Cain covered this yesterday on his show at 4 p.m. Eastern on Fox. Will's a good friend, good man. Will found this hilarious too. In the autopsy, they complained that Kamala Harris being appointed. The borders are remember when Joe Biden said, Kamala, you're in charge of the open border and she totally flubbed it. She did nothing. She didn't even go to the border. She spent her entire time leaking to the media how she was pissed off being the borders are instead of solving a problem. Look at the difference between her and Vice President Vance. JD Vance, the vice president is given a portfolio over the Minnesota fraud and national fraud scandal. We're up to something like 200 plus arrests, prosecutions, 41 years in prison for a ringleader. It's only been a couple of months. It's only been a couple of months. Kamala Harrison, charge of the border for basically four years. She does Jack squad. So listen to Will Cain cover how they read them. They're pissed off that we, we called Kamala the border czar, but she wasn't really the borders are. Are you sure about that? Check this out. The report also zeroes in on her time as borders are and how the Biden White House threw her into the flames without an extinguisher. Quote, President Biden assigned the vice president a brief, including immigration, which was poorly framed by Republicans as borders are. It was not the official title, but it was the one that the media propagated and the White House failed to contradict or correct. But title or not, Harris didn't do anything about the border and only visited the thing twice while she was VP. The report did acknowledge though, she may have saved Democrats from an even bigger down ballot wipeout. Have Biden remained on the ballot, but when it came time for Harris to actually sell her accomplishments to voters, her failed strategy pulled down to one message. Trump is bad. Ralph Gatton, a chat says she was a border. Welcome, Matt. She did nothing about the border, but they're not. Nobody in the autopsy acknowledges that at all, that maybe the problem was she failed to produce an actual result. Unlike vice president Vance, who was just named the fraud czar a month ago and already has a bunch of prosecutions and collars on under his belt. She didn't do anything, man. And Republicans framed it as the borders are. Or is the border, we did that. Are you sure? Ladies and gentlemen, receipts incoming. Hat tip the great maze more. We played this years ago when it happened. We didn't call her the borders are left wing media people called it. Listen for yourself. Don't listen to me. Check this out. Vice president and borders are. Tamela Harris facing some backlash. And this will be her first visit to the US Mexico border region since she was appointed as the borders are by president Biden, president Biden tapped Kamala Harris, vice president Kamala Harris to be the border czar. They were very critical of Kamala Harris, especially in her role as border czar Kamala Harris, who was appointed as the borders are. There has been so much criticism against Kamala Harris. You know, she was the borders are. Folks, that's CNN and MSNBC. If you're listening on Apple or Spotify, that's not the damn Bonjino show. They called her the borders are because she was in charge of the border when border policies totally collapsed. Folks, it's all a distraction. The Democrats do not want to put down on paper that their love affair with the hatred of white men, their hatred of Jews, all of it. They do not want to admit in a paper document that that is why they got smoked. When you tell a group of people collectively that they are the cause of everyone else's problems, it should not surprise you when those groups of people, white men, working class voters and others give you the double barrel middle finger and say, I don't want to be told I'm the cause of your problems. Your government's causing me problems. Just like McGurn showed in the Baltimore is not about race article. I just showed you white communities in poverty too. Have the exact same problem. Big government policies. Folks, if the Democrats were doing so great, by the way, and they've cleaned the racked up, look at this. What is it? Open source. There's a poll in there. Quinnipiac poll. No big huge Republican outlet there. Democrat party approval rating among men disapprove 78% disapprove. So there's good news and bad news. The bad news is I don't want to party as popular as the Democrats. They have a lot of voters. They do in the United States hating any group of people, men, Jews, Christians, evangelicals, anyone. The good news is if you're going to do it, you're still going to get your political ass kicked. That's it because Americans aren't like that. Folks, listen, I want to be melodramatic, but I don't get out a ton. I'm being honest with you, but I get out enough. I go out there. I can't express to you enough. Listen to me, please. Like, stop what you're doing for a sec. Super important. I'm going to try and take a breather, too. This is really critical. Social media in general, not just X. Portions of it are real life. I don't like when people say Twitter isn't real life. No, there are real life. No, there are real people on Twitter. However, what you see on social media, I will say more precisely, is not representative of the greatness of this country. I travel, when I travel around, when I travel around in the FBI, when I travel around personally, I meet the most amazing people who say the nicest, kindest thing. You may be saying to yourself, oh my gosh, it's just people. No, I'm talking about people who have no idea who I am. I'll go in like a local hardware store somewhere. And people are just incredible. Do you have that clip, the door, a key? You got that clip, the door thing we were talking about before. I want to play this here. I know it's a lot of water, but this is important. I bring this up because the left and the tumors and grift dudes who tried to infiltrate our party with their own ideological hatred that we just gave them the boot, they really believe X in social media are real life. Many of them are still stunned by what happened in the Tuesday and the mass election. They're stunned. They can't believe it. They were convinced. They were people putting $100,000 bets down that, oh, the country hates the Jews. They hate the Web. This is where, you know, all this other stuff that's moving in a different direction. They are stunned. Here's this lady. I don't even know who she is, but I saw this rolling around on X yesterday. She's like stunned that Twitter ratios aren't the real world. Listen to the end of this. This is critical. Most of the audience after listening doesn't even know what a Twitter ratio is. Most of the audience forget it is even on Twitter, but she's convinced ratioing people on X is the real world. Check this out. What they see is what's curated to them, and that also feels like a part of the plan. True. We often ask, I'm like, does everyone has everyone in the world working up to the Israel problem? And my husband often says, like, we're probably just in our own echo chamber, right? Our algorithm on social media. And so I think about that a lot. Am I just in an echo chamber or has America for a sentiment truly gotten to the point where it's boiling over so much that everyone is experiencing this mass awakening? And the only thing that gives me cause to believe that I'm not living in an echo chamber is when you see establishment voices like your Mark Levin's, Randy Feins, Laura Loomis, Trump, Vance, all these people who are establishment, when they're getting ratioed, right? Like they have their own echo chamber. So how come they're getting ratioed on post sometimes by double, triple, quadruple by people who do have the America for a sentiment? That's what kind of gives me a little bit of hope that maybe we're not in an echo chamber. Maybe people are actually experiencing a mass awakening of sorts. That's by the way a woman by the name of Amy Dangerfield. Guys, you know the end of the year we do the 10 best clips of the year. Can we add the 10 dumbest? This is this. I nominate this one first. It's my show. So Andy, start the list. Yeah, quadruple is not a thing. I think it's quite. Thank you, Gaefer. I think quadruple. Number one, did you guys even catch it? She references the Republican establishment. She says, Trump and Vance. That's a good one. Amy, that's a good one. Trump and Vance are the establishment. That's a good one. Yes, the establishment loves Donald Trump. Correct. Correct. Bill Cassidy and Tom Taylor, they love them. They love them. They love them. They love them. You are correct. And it's that no, I'm not in an echo chamber. We ratio people on Twitter. Folks, if you're on X as often as I am, I'm not telling you there are not real people who get pissed off when their candidate loses. I'm telling you it is in no way even close to representative of the real world. Do you know how easy it is to bot X, use artificially astroturfing, inflated activity to ratio people? I guarantee you a ton of people in the chat are like, what the hell does that even mean? Exactly. This is all they have. And they're stunned when actual voters show up and go, I don't want that guy. Wait, I thought Israel was the top issue. Ladies and gentlemen, I promise you, it's probably not even a top 10 issue for other people. It's a top one issue for you. That's all you talk about. Isn't it incredible? How they're always like, I can't believe people are making Israel for. This show is like 5% or less about foreign affairs. Your show is 100% about Israel. You're obsessed with this small, sliver of land in the Middle East. When the guy working down the block, stocking shelves in Walgreen, this doesn't give a shit. And then you're stunned when you lose. But we ratio people. I don't know. I don't know. We ratio people. Then you get to quadribble is a thing. We had four. Rondoc. Rondoc. We should start doing comment of the week. Quadribble is a thing. We had four years in that with Biden. Freakin' genius. Rondoc in the chat. That is genius level comic activity. Unlike the other comics. Will Endu, bro. This is all they talk about. And they wonder why, again, like a coal miner in West Virginia is not gonna vote for them anymore. It is, this is leftist identity politics. Pick a label. Pick a label. White men, black men, union workers. Trans cis gender, two spirit people. Whatever they make up. All they do is pick a label. They put it on you and they go, Republicans hate you. Vote for us. Enemy man, enemy is my friend. They do it all the time. Folks, again, I try not to fall in love with politicians. However, when politicians produce results, like really good exchanges that expose Democrats for what they are, it matters to me. And right now up on the hill, there's no one doing it better than Brandon Gill, congressman from Texas. Brandon Gill is up there on the hill yesterday. And this is what it looks like when you expose Democrats who want you to believe that everybody's racist but them. And then they want you to come and vote for them even though they called you a racist. He's up with this liberal lady. And apparently their group has one of these diagrams of racism and it's like, if you deny racism, you're like an even bigger racist. By the way, that's the essence of a conspiracy theory. Whatever you say to rebut the conspiracy theory is evident you're part of the conspiracy. It's the same thing with the left. It's the same effing tactic. Oh, you say you're not a racist? The more you deny it means you're hiding it that you're the biggest racist of all. How do you ever win an argument like that? The answer is you can't because it's not an argument. Watch this exchange and you'll see how the left once confronted with their own ideas, even they run from it. That's how unpopular, even amongst themselves, they are. Check this out. No question. Are you a racist? I'm not a racist. You're not a racist. Particularly interesting because according to one of your affiliate charities under your non-profit umbrella, denial of racism constitutes covert white supremacy. Are you a covert white supremacist? Sir, I'm here to talk about the essential work that non-profits do. Are you a covert white supremacist? Can I talk about the work that non-profits do? No, I'm asking you if you're a covert white supremacist, which according to one of your own organizations, again, denial of racism constitutes covert white supremacy. Would you like to answer the question? I'm sorry, I don't know what the question is. So you refused to answer whether you were a covert white supremacist? I don't have a definition in front of me. I haven't looked at the definition. I'm not going to answer a question about my personal. I'm here to talk about the work of non-profit organizations. No, I want to give you one more chance to do this. Are you a covert white supremacist? Why are we so off track from the top of the list? No, I'm asking you a very straightforward question. I've heard your question. Thank you, sir. And you're not going to answer whether you were a covert white supremacist. I would like to answer questions about the work of non-profit organizations. Thank you. That is really, really astounding. I can answer very directly that I am not a covert white supremacist, and I imagine all of my colleagues can as well. Who can't answer that question? Let's do a simple test. Jasmine, are you in fact a white supremacist? That's a no. Andy, two thumbs down. Guy, he's like, hell no, not me. Justin, no, shaking his head. No, I'm not. No, I'm Dan Bongino. No, I am that Guy's video of the day. Brandon Gill's racking him up, by the way. No, I'm not a white supremacist. It's not hard. It's not hard. But the lady said, her group says, if you deny that, that you're a racist. You are in fact a white supremacist. So Brandon Gill asked a simple question. You're a racist. She said, no, so buy her own freaking definition. She's a white supremacist, correct? Are we all stupid? Deny it and you're a white supremacist. I deny it. So then you must be a white supremacist. This, none of this is in the autopsy, folks. None of this is in the freaking autopsy. I'm not trying, this isn't build your vocabulary day. This isn't like, hooked on phonics worked for me. However, there's a word out there you should know, bet noir, okay? I'm pretty sure it means a black beast. And when it's meant to mean bet noir, it's like this phantom creature, everybody should be scared of the bet noir. I put this up there and there's your definition. Because it's the perfect word to describe the left's entire ideology. There's some beast out there that's doing evil things to you. And we are going to protect you from that beast. That beast is the Republican party, the MAGA movement, the white males, patriarchy, conservatives, libertarians, whatever they mean, it doesn't matter. They always need a victim and a perpetrator, because they need someone to blame for their problems. So they can't pin it down off into one single person. So they make it something that's unassailed, like the white male patriarchy, so that you'll never pay attention to facts. Don't ever forget that. And they constantly have to redefine what the bet noir is. Because when you call them out on specific things, they lose their minds. You'll say to them, for instance, so white men are the problem, and if they deny they're the problem, they're racist. What about this white, put up that time cover. What about this white male left this? Because this is your Democrat soon-to-be nominee in the state of Maine. This is Time Magazine put on the cover of Graham Platner, who is a very white man. He's a Democrat, running for the U.S. Senate, with a ton of support. He has a Nazi tattoo on his chest. And if you look at his photo on Time's cover, he is pretty white. Does that guy look white to you? And he's like, yeah, a little bit, a little bit. He looks pretty white. Looks pretty white. Folks, I don't even play with it. It's got a pretty white name too, Graham Platner. I thought the white male, I thought the white male was the problem. I thought he was the problem. I thought the white male and the Nazi conservatives was the problem. You now have a white guy with a Nazi tattoo. You see how they just have to, to bet noir is whatever they say it is? I thought it was a white male. No, no, not in this case. He's one of the good guys, because he denies being a racist and a Nazi. You just said denying it's evidence of a white supremacist. Not, not, not his denial. That specific white male who denies it is, that denial counts. Just not your denial. Your denial's evidence. His denial's a denial. This happens every time. How do you suckers keep falling for this on the left? You are being played for suckers, bro. You're being played suckers. And you thought you could pull this shit in our movement with this primary. We're going to come in here and tell you to hate this group of people. Nobody played along. You got smoked, because that's not our movement. I can't tell you this enough. Genie B, AMDG, Graham Cracker. He's pretty white, man. I can't, you know, that's, how are you falling for this? If you're a liberal, listen to me. How are you this stupid? You told us the white dude was your problem. That the Nazis are everywhere in the Republican Party. Despite the fact that we just had a primary that rebuked all of this, you had a primary. You're going to have a primary. Well, you just picked a guy who's got an actual fucking Nazi tattoo. Ah, damn it. Let me go to church today. You just picked a guy with a Nazi tattoo who's a white dude. What's that? By their own logic, he's a covert white supremacy. Denies it. I'm going to watch this clip from Trigonometry, Constantine Kissenshow, where he's talking to this former liberal who had her eyes open, who saw this as kind of interesting too. How everybody's a covert white supremacist that denial of your white supremacy makes you even more racist. And she's probably thinking to herself, like, that doesn't sound like logic or reason. Like, how can you possibly escape this circle then? You can't because they need the bet noir everywhere. This is what happens when you wake up. This is what it looks like, eyes open. Check this out. Everyone who's white is a white supremacist, even if they don't know it, they're racist. So, like, you should really question what you believe, because more often than not, you're racist. You have cisgender privilege. And did you think this when this was happening, where you're like, actually, I am, you know, I must be a white supremacist? I literally was just like, I guess this is what is true. Like, I was just like, I'm going to listen to BIPOC, you know, which is like POC, is people of color. I'm going to listen to other people's perspectives, and I'm going to sit down and talk to them. I'm going to sit down and shut up, essentially, to listen to what other people have to say. You know, we threw out the idea of the MLK would say, you should be judged by the content of your character, not the color of your skin. That was out the window. And it was like, everyone who's white insists gender or is in privilege doesn't have a perspective here. So anyway, that's the culture of the newsroom. Not that anyone's like a gun in my head being like, you must believe this, but it was just the water that I was swimming in. S holes are 21. Can someone make an F bomb sticker? We can toss it in a shower when he drops it. I know, I'm sorry, we do need the swear jar. I know, I know. Maybe what we'll do is, I got an idea. Like, can we do like a swear jar, and we'll, I'll give $100 to a charity every time. That way, at least something can come out of this abomination of foul language, because it is bad. Kids don't do it. And you're right, my critics, it does diminish your argument. I've no excuses, just an explanation. There's a S holes, you're 21 in the chat there. It does diminish your argument. I just, oh man. I can't, sometimes it just happens. I wish it didn't. Folks, I want to show you, I said, I titled today's show too, a horrifying incident, because I want to show you something coming up. I know it's Friday. I'm going to leave you some good news, don't worry. But you do need to see this, because this leftist argument, that this country is irredeemable, other cultures are just as valuable, big governments the solution, totalitarianism is the solution. Other cultures, some of them, and their governing systems, are not only garbage, they're freaking dangerous. I saw this, you may have seen this going around on X's video. So get ready for what I'm going to show you next. I'm just telling you, like, this is, it's a little rough. But we got to talk about it. Folks, spring always flips a switch for me.

I'm going to skip ahead, guys. I don't, what? What? Is that like a real number? We should get that number. We should get that number. And like you can donate to charity or something, right? Okay, so this clip kind of sums up what I'm talking about. How leftists want you to believe that, you know, this country isn't different. We should be more like these countries around the world with these broken governing systems and totalitarian regimes. They can't have you, let me explain this better. They can't have you think American exceptionalism is real because then what's the follow-up question, right? Thomas Sowell used to say, always ask liberals, and then what? Okay, if we have to acknowledge the fact that America is the wealthiest, most prosperous, most powerful military and greatest place to be alive, everyone wants to come here. And then what? Well, how did it get that way? The answer is an unparalleled sense of both freedom and liberty protected, not granted by our constitution. And they don't want to do that because leftists need control. Control is the opposite of freedom and liberty. So if they need control, they have to tell you freedom and liberty sucks, that we're no different than everyone else. And we should respect all cultures. No, we shouldn't. Did you see this video about the Afghan who sells his children, his female daughters into sex slavery? And I want you to listen to the tone of the quote, journalism in here, where they sound like almost sympathetic. Folks, this is freaking demonic. This is evil. These people should get the death penalty for doing this. There is no scenario by which you sell. Is this, do we even need to say this? Is this even like a public service announcement? Jasmine's like, I'm pretty sure we don't. Just in case there's still a couple of dipshits, who don't understand this, selling your kids to sex slavery is a zero day update. It's never, no, there's no scenario by which that's okay. But what if I need food? There is no scenario by which that's okay. None, none, none. I would rather be dead. You know this happened. Yes, this actually happened. This was zipping around that. Oh, we feel so bad. Oh yeah, I feel bad for the kids. Check this out. Explain why he's making unbearable choices. I'm ready to sell my daughters. I'm poor and in debt. I come home with parched lips, distressed and confused. My children come to me saying, Baba, give us some bread. But what can I give? Where is the work so I can earn? It breaks my heart, but it's the only way to feed my other children, Abdul says. No, no, man. No, no. No, we're not doing that. No. Ladies and gentlemen, we are not importing into our country a people who have been raised in this type of culture who think it's okay to sell your seven-year-old and five-year-old daughters into sex slavery to a bunch of, they're not animal. That's a disgrace to animals, to demons. That is not a thing. That is never a thing. You can take your crocodile tears and shove them up your ass. We don't want you. You're not allowed in here. Now, I will say again, this is not a reflection on people. It's a reflection on a culture and a system they were raised in too. We don't want that here. You take that man from birth, put him in the United States. He's probably a neurosurgeon right now. It's not him. It's the culture. We don't want that here. I'm not interested in Afghani exceptionalism air quotes imported into the United States. You know when they tried this? Well, they tried it here under the Biden administration and thankfully, Donald Trump has gotten ahold of it. His results matter. They're trying this in Western Europe right now. You have that Daily Mail piece? Do you hear about this story too? This is the horrifying incident I was talking about in addition to that. We're not doing this here and make zero apologies for it. The white male patriarchy didn't do this. Daily Mail. Jack Hardy. Teenage gang who lured schoolgirl, 15, to an underpass, laughed as they filmed themselves raping her. They managed to avoid jail. The judge praised them for their behavior during trial. What? We're not doing this here, folks. You want to know why Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris? Maybe stop telling voters in Appalachian elsewhere who are struggling under the foot of big government that they're the problem. While you import a bunch of third world cultures, clearly not up to snuff into the United States while telling Americans they suck. Now you know why people don't want to vote for you? Well, tell me what America first means. We know what America first means. We voted for it three times. You tried to hijack it and make it about a country the size of New Jersey and the Middle East while ignoring all the countries that surrounded. Pakistani rape gangs, Afghanis selling their kids into sex slavery. You're just ignoring that? All these commentators out there, I don't know, I've never heard anything about it. Would you read the effing newspaper, bro? We're not doing this, man. We're not doing this here. That's why people voted for Donald Trump. Well, what's he doing about it? Gee, I don't know. Shut the border to zero illegal migrants admitted into the country. What, four months in a row now? Zero. Zero. From tens of millions flooding in. Under Biden. Here he was yesterday in the White House where he's trying to fight against birthright citizenship too. Another, another just suicide pack. You just allowed to come here legally or illegally, have a child and you get to claim our club is your club, the United States of America, our culture is your culture? No, that's not the way this works. And don't act like the argument's settled. The argument's not settled because the people don't agree it's settled. There's a question of political versus territorial jurisdiction. The left wants you to believe it's all about territory. You're born in our territory, you claim all the rights. The right's saying, and even some sane leftists are starting to say, no, you don't get to come here from like a foreign country, potentially an enemy of the United States, have a baby, or even though you're under no political jurisdiction of the United States at all, you're a foreigner with, you're not, some of you are not even here legally. And you get to claim all of our rights? No. Here's Donald Trump and the Oval yesterday because this case is out at the Supreme Court now, talking about birthright citizenship. You want to see why he won in New York, Topsy? It's because of stuff like this, check this out. Now we have another one coming up, birthright citizenship. It would be a disgrace. It would be a disgrace if the Supreme Court of the United States allows that to happen. Remember when I said 20 to 25% of the people coming into our country will come in through birthright citizenship. They'll become citizens through birthright citizenship, and it'll cost us numbers that are, I don't even think they're doable. And it's all up to a couple of people. And I hope they do what's right. Birthright citizenship is a disgrace, the fact that we're looking at the people that are bringing this suit. Study the people that are bringing this suit. These are not people that love our country. I can tell you that. Folks, chest up, chest out, chin up, chest out, chin up, shoulders back, head held high. You are a Maga Republican. A Maga Republican is a leader in civil rights and civil liberties for all. Maga Republicans fought back against this ideological group-centric hatred we saw trying to insert themselves in our party on Tuesday and fought back proudly. The Republican Party was the party of civil liberties. When you talk about culture, talk about it proudly and openly, do not accept or even tolerate for a moment this leftist dribble, this leftist quadribble, do not for a second tolerate this bullshit that addressing failures in other cultures to police values and morals and their people that somehow is bigoted in races. Bullshit! Bullshit! The left is the party that is fully embraced, all this Jew hatred, hatred of the white male working class. That's their thing. They're just embarrassed that the United States through freedom and liberty is built to system and a culture peerless around the world. And they want control of that back. Then you got Karen Bass out there running for mayor of Los Angeles. Not only is she apparently doesn't give a shit about illegal immigration, she entertains the idea of having illegals actually vote in local elections. Listen to her at the end where she can't even give an answer on this. Not only do you want to impart into the country cultures totally not compliant with American values. You want them to vote here too? Listen to this. Council member, you go to Sotomayor Martinez who has endorsed you. He wants to explore ways to let non-citizens vote in city elections. With Donald Trump in the White House, is this the right time for Los Angeles to go down this path? Well, I think we need to explore it. Now I've not seen exactly what he's calling for. I have a little familiarity of what happens in other cities. And for example, some cities will allow people to vote in like city council and school board elections because they pay local taxes, but they are not necessarily undocumented. They might be here completely legally, but have not finished the citizenship process. So we'll wait and see. There's a way to find out fellas if you've finished the citizen ship process. You know what it is? The citizenship process? Damn, no, that's the answer. There's a way to figure it out. I went through this Jasmine, you know that citizenship process? What then? You were, no, no, not me, but I went through it with Paula. You guys have any idea how I knew she was a citizen? We went down to the immigration office in Baltimore after she had done what was needed the right way and she swore in and became a citizen. That's the way Karen Bass. Folks, if you're not voting for Spencer Pratt in this LA election, I can't help you. I'm sorry. You're just, you're voting for city-wide suicide. You're voting for city-wide suicide. Oh, where's the good news guy? I know you said it's Friday, you're going to leave us with some good news. I am. I have my Democrats end thing coming up in a minute. Hat tip, producer Jim, you know we love him. We miss him every day. Some people ask me, you ever going to go back to radio? I don't know, maybe someday. I just, I wanted to come back and focus on this. You know, I was very proud of the work we did, but I wanted to make sure we took care of the podcast audience first. This was always my first love. We've had this show since 2015. I love doing it. We built this new studio. I only got to use it for like three weeks and left. So, you know, that's the only way. I may one day, who knows? But I'm happy to be back with Fox and everyone else too. So that's a good thing. But I saw this yesterday. Turning point, you know, obviously we're still all grieving the loss of Charlie Kirk and a friend to all of us. I always say we all had a piece of Charlie, all of us. Charlie was an amazing friend to me. I love Charlie. I love him still. And I'll never forget what he did for the movement. But turning point is still going out on campuses, changing hearts and minds and telling people what the real MAGA movement, what the real Republican movement is, what the real Liberty oriented Republican movement is. Chloe Cole, who's a detransitioner and goes out and warns about this transitioning, this gender fluidity crap that they're teaching. She was on a campus and this woman came up. I said, did you guys see this on X yesterday? If you didn't, you're in for a treat. It's not very long. But a woman comes up and says, hey, I had interacted with Charlie at one of these before, but I want you to see what happens next. This is worth a minute of your time. Check this out. My name's Ariel. You might have seen a video of me on Charlie Kirk's Instagram. I talked to him last year when he was on this campus. I was born to a mother who had severe mental illness. It led her to abuse me physically, socially. I was then adopted by my grandparents when I was about eight. I went through all this abuse in my life, all these hardships. I'm now 19. I found a wonderful church back at home and here. But pretty much my whole message to anyone who might see this is the potential for suffering is not worth the ending of a life pretty much early. If the world weren't so evil, I'd be talking to Charlie Kirk again. But I can't do that. And so when I heard that you were coming on campus and that you were part of the same company, I knew I just had to talk to you again. It takes a great deal of courage to be able to talk about it and acknowledge it in the first place and then to go out into the world and to reuse that testimony, to reuse those hardships, to make the world a better place for other people. And I seriously commend you for that. It's not the easiest thing in the world, but easy isn't why we do it. We do it because we want to help the next generation because we want a better world, a better culture for them than the one that we were raised up in. And I love how you're using your story to do that. Folks, I played that because I just want to drill into all of our skulls. You know, mine included sometimes when you're ready to give up and you think, oh my gosh, this is all bad. This is a dystopian nightmare. Everything's falling apart. The DOOMers won. They didn't win. We continue to rack up Ws. I had a whole section. These guys don't even get to it today. It was called the results in Lucky Trump section. I'll get to it on Tuesday. We are off on Monday for Memorial Day. I'm getting on my team and people to spend time with their families. I want people spending time with me on Monday. Go out and enjoy your families. Remember what it's all about. However, talking to the other side still matters. Even if you can't crack through to the liberal listening, there's always a third party listening. Always. The minute we stop talking, and this is what Charlie's entire life was about, that's when it's really over. And it's never over. Was it a naïve that said, your enemy is vanquished until he believes himself so? Well, I never, at any point, even after the debacle in 2020 and that whole nasty election, I never gave up. You go back and listen to my shows. I told people after we lost in the midterms, get up, dust off, move on. We're not vanquished. And we're only vanquished when you believe itself. And then we came back and look what happened in 2024. Okay, it is Friday, so Producer Jim is always gracious enough to put together a nice, kind, meditative moment for us during the week so we can roll into this long Memorial Day weekend of peace and calm. And of course, using our fellow friends at Democrats, who as we know guys are known for peace and calm and non-emotional, just kind of level set. You know, to get back to the weekend and really adjust and deep breaths. So maybe go in one of those little salt caves with this and listen to this over and over to help you relax. Here's our Democrat Zen moment of the week. Your Democrat Zen moment of the day. A peaceful moment to center your mind. Be there, Democrat supporters. This is your local friendly door dasher. And I just want to let you know that if I see a Magus sign out front of your house, I'm going to take the utmost care to make sure that when I deliver your order, I throw it out the fucking window, you piece of shit. Fuck this has been Democrat Zen. Get a double check door dash from now on. Okay, I wonder if door dash does anything about thinking. There you go, folks, little peace and calm for the long weekend.
