Will Trump's Inauguration Be Safe? (Ep. 2400)
I hate that Governor Newsom had to create a new landing page on his site to put out the real facts about what the budgets have looked like, doubling the size of the air fleet. Forest management budget increased 10 times. I understand it got a little wordy about the San Ynez reservoir, but the truth is, is that reservoir...
The Dan Bongino Show
Will Trump's Inauguration Be Safe? (Ep. 2400)
was offline through february 2025 no matter what this wasn't something an unpreparedness thing there was a tear in the cover that they had to repair it's a normal maintenance thing so yes would it have been better if it had been filled sure but that's not because of mismanager that's that's maintenance that has to happen there were but the maintenance didn't happen in time i mean but it was always it but it's not behind schedule is the point this isn't because they neglected it
The Dan Bongino Show
Will Trump's Inauguration Be Safe? (Ep. 2400)
Well, you don't know that there's going to be a crime. This fire was predicted five days out, not months out when it went offline. We've been hearing about it.
The Dan Bongino Show
Did The Government Accidentally Tell The Truth About The Drones? (Ep. 2388)
There was a tendency amongst Democrats and especially Democrats were discussing the issue. So people who do interviews or are part of the media to minimize it over the first two and a half years when there were a lot of people coming in here. And I thought that it was a stunt, you know, when they started busing migrants, they go to Martha's Vineyards. Yeah.
The Dan Bongino Show
Did The Government Accidentally Tell The Truth About The Drones? (Ep. 2388)
It was the smartest thing they ever did.
The Dan Bongino Show
America Is Back In The World Stage, And We Love To See It (Ep. 2433)
is a positive sign for Democrats, though, is there seems to be a bit of coalescing around a message that is resonating. So, Hakeem Jeffries gave a press conference today. He had up two signs, and one of them says, Elon Musk is making $8 million a day in government contracts. The average Medicaid recipient gets $65 a day.
The Dan Bongino Show
America Is Back In The World Stage, And We Love To See It (Ep. 2433)
And we know in the new spending bill that Speaker Johnson has put forward and that narrowly passed the House that you're gonna... Why are you... This actually matters to me.
The Dan Bongino Show
America Is Back In The World Stage, And We Love To See It (Ep. 2433)
You got bored the second I opened my eyes. No, but it does matter to say that somebody who is running the government in a serious capacity and supposed to be rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse is making $8 million a day, and they want to cut your Medicaid.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
Yeah, I do. I think Bernie Sanders and AOC are very effective messengers.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
But that's not about who's going to lead the ticket. But that's in such a contrast with what Rahm Emanuel is saying that the party needs. Totally. And I enjoy listening to Rahm Emanuel and hearing from him, and I'm glad that he's all over the media circuit as well. There is something compelling in the energy that AOC and Bernie are bringing.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
And you see that in the reaction of people in one of these rallies who say this isn't even my politics. You think that Iowa is full of the Idaho energy, but the policies are terrible. It's not about policy right now. We're not. The election is 18 months away for the midterms, even not even the presidency. People are desperate to see the Democrats have a pulse.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
They like Chris Murphy right now, who has a completely moderate set of policies. He has if you watch him, he's creating content constantly. He's right now walking across the state of Connecticut talking to voters. He has a moderate.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
No, no, no, no, no. There is an important distinction to be drawn between being accessible and being... good or delivering truth or actually saying what's going on in the world. And now I'm all fuddled up in my head.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
Well, don't. He's important. There is. Donald Trump does this thing. Not only like today, he says, you know, we got five point one trillion in the Middle East. There's actually it was one point five trillion like a week ago. But most importantly, he sits down for these interviews. And I think Biden should have been more accessible.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
Maybe we would have had a competitive primary if he had been more accessible. But he does these interviews and then he says, I don't know or I'm not sure. Kristen Welker asked him, do you need to uphold the Constitution? I don't know. Ask a lawyer. Are you sending migrants to Libya? I don't know. Ask Homeland Security.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
You just announced a new nominee for Surgeon General who didn't graduate from med school. Why? Bobby likes her. I don't know her. You have the power to bring back Abrego Garcia. I don't make that decision. Lawyers do.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
No, I'm not. I'm saying that that is what the criticism is of him. He may be in front of you, but that doesn't mean that he's not spewing utter B.S.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
Yeah, we're not split. It's a 70-30 issue. Go with the 70, win some elections, and then you get to make policy and change hearts and minds. But this actually wasn't Gavin Newsom. There was no capitulation. This was the California Interscholastic Federation. And this plan had already been developed before Trump's threat. And there's no way that this could have been put together in the 20 minutes.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
So I know it's a fun narrative to... to crap on Greasy Gavin, New Scum, whatever you want to say. You want to call him a she, whatever. That's not what's going on here at all. And it is relevant to say that there are only 10 of these students out of the 5.8 million K-12 public school students in New York.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
California, just like it was relevant when the head of the NCAA showed up to testify in Congress and said, we're talking about 10 athletes out of the 510,000. Now, again, that does not mean that I think that trans women in these competitive sports should be able to compete and be ranked against each other.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
And that's why this is a reasonable solve, or at least is progress in going in the right direction, because what actually happens here is you essentially have three categories. So the race starts or the pole vaulting competition starts and everybody gets to compete. So trans women as well as biological females.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
What they are saying is that a biological female will not go down in the ranking because a trans woman.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
Yeah, totally. And I think there's just also a lot of people who are nonviolent who are like, yeah, I wish the other gal had one. I'm going to survive moving on. It felt a little 2016 hysterical versus 2024 hysterical, which is much more muted.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
If you thought Newark was a zoo, a pair of stowaway pigeons causing havoc on a Delta flight, causing the plane to return to the gate twice.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
Can't wait to tune in. An endurance swimmer became the first person to swim around Martha's Vineyard. British South African Louis Pugh embarked on the feat to mark the 50th anniversary of the movie Jaws and to raise awareness about the need to protect the sharks. His 60-mile shark swim was completed over 12 days.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
Take the quiz every day at the quiz.box. Then come back here to see how you did.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
By this table standards, yes. I take Dana the most seriously, for sure. Listen, I feel like we are kind of halfway through the original sin cycle. There are a couple more books to come. And every time that one comes out, it's going to be rough. There are going to be details. There are going to be new names of people who should have said something but didn't say something.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
And I'll have a bad week, but I'm in it for the long haul. And I'm committed. And I'm also committed to the truth, Jesse. And the truth is that the Democrats are very unpopular, but so is a lot of what Donald Trump is doing. So in a polling Marquette, Fox News, all the goodies, he's down 16 on the economy, down 14 on foreign policy, 26 on handling tariffs and 32 on cost of living.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
And this reconciliation bill that they're trying to pass through the Senate right now has opposition from more senators than they can handle. So you've got the Josh Hawleys of the world who's miraculously concerned about throwing people off Medicaid. Rick Scott and Maria Bartiromo was. Raking him over the coals this morning about his views.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
Rand Paul, who has been talking about everything from how unconstitutional it is for Trump to be putting in these tariffs to how we're ballooning the deficit. Ron Johnson, Susan Collins, Jerry Moran. Those are a lot of senators that you've got to get on board.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
So if this is the big ticket item, right, this is the big marquee agenda piece that we're going to give tax cuts to the wealthy and we're going to take away food assistance and Medicaid. So we're hurting the poor to help the rich.
The Five
The Five 05-28-2025
That does not bode well for 2026 for the Republicans or for 2028 when we're going to have a big, beautiful primary and we will get a great candidate and everyone will forget about the hoity toity and we shall be victorious.
The Five
The Five 05-20-2025
And of course, he really stumbled and he stumbled and he stumbled and bumbled around, Mark. I mean, yeah, he he certainly did. Donald Trump did. Other politicians did. But but but it and it's actually the same case as a lot of times when I've gone in and talked to Donald Trump. That didn't seem to me to get in the way of of.
The Five
The Five 05-20-2025
Joe Biden being able to analyze the most important issues, and I certainly think he has a better grasp on it than probably the overwhelming majority of his critics, or certainly did when I spoke with him.
The Five
The Five 05-20-2025
I don't think this is time for politics. But what I will say is that this administration has cut cancer funding research. And I think that's so despicable and so disdainful.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
I was just going to say he's going to do what he always does, which is open an investigation. And that is going to go forward. Everybody's going to kill me for saying this, but to play devil's advocate, right? I'm not saying there was not a... Preach, Jillian. I'm not saying there was not a cover-up, and I'm not saying that people should not be held responsible.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
I have never worked in politics, but having worked in Washington, D.C. for a very long time, I will tell you... that this is the job of aides, whether they're working for a member of Congress. Greg's shaking his head in agreement with me.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
Yeah, so there's accusations against the media for covering up and the officials. In terms of the officials at the White House, they were hired by the Biden campaign and then the Biden White House to protect the president's interest.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
A big part of your job when you work in Washington, whether you work for a freshman member of Congress or the commander in chief, is to hide some of the more unsavory aspects about them, whatever those are, hide their weaknesses, and insist that there's nothing going, no problems, everything is great. So I think you... It's not that you don't then blame people for taking that way too far.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
But not everybody looks at it as... this was something wrong. A lot of people look at it as like the staff, at the staff level, they were just doing their jobs.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
They are worried about how foreigners are treated in the United States. So why not go to college at Oxford instead of Harvard? And that's, you know, that's a big loss.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
All right. Let's talk about the shooting in Washington, D.C. This poor young woman. We are now learning Sarah Milgram crawling away, Paul, trying to drag herself away from the gunman as best she could while he continued and continued to just unload on her in full. I mean, in public. Right.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
not just different, but if you're at a 7% approval rating, you've got to go big. You've got to, like, outdo everybody else. You've got to go hard charging at every Republican you can find. And that's, you know, what he's doing. It remains to be seen whether that works for Chicagoans.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
It has certainly for other politicians in the city in the past, meaning they have a proclivity to reelect the same people over and over and over, despite corruption, despite everything falling apart, despite violence. You know, so maybe it'll work for him. I don't know.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
But you also know, Paul, that like a feature, you know, you've lived here long enough. I certainly know because I grew up here in New York City, like nobody loves to complain about their local and state leaders. More than liberals in the well, nobody more than this table, but then beyond this table, you know, like liberals in big cities.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
And then you end up with, you know, people like this with the mayor with seven percent. But he might very well get elected, reelected for another 20 years. Nobody ever makes any change.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
No. But also, Paul Mezcal is full of S-H-I-T. Because he was in Gladiator. Am I not allowed to spell curse words on television? He literally curses. Go find out. Anyway, a lot of people have said a lot worse on this show.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
Anyway, he was just in Gladiator 2, which was like the most, like, toxically masculine movie ever made. Like, with people just killing each other all over the place for no reason. Terrible acting. So he has, he's like, again, he's just full of it.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
That's right. You're from South Africa. No, I'm not. I'm from New York. I was born at New York Hospital.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
I was... Did I come here as a refugee? I did not. I was thinking, I think Abercrombie and Fitch was my fave.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
They always used to have very good looking guys working there. I will say, yeah, I could see that being a match.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
There was a store like that right here in New York called Barrett. Welcome back. Before we get to one more thing, join us for the Fives Memorial Day special. That is this Monday, Memorial Day. We're going to answer your fan mail questions and do a whole lot more. Do not miss it. Okay, Jessica, you are up first. Wow, I never get to go first.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
Joey, you're next. Okay. Just take a long time, so there's no time for Greg. Greg's next.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
All right. Jessica, this is. sort of laid everything out there on the table, made clear a lot of the undercurrents that we've been feeling in the United States over the last couple of years. It is now very clear that Jews, we already knew that they weren't safe in a lot of Western European capitals, certainly not safe in Middle Eastern cities, including inside Israel itself.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
All right. Paul Morrow's first time on the show. Great to have you last time.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
An affidavit reads Elias Rodriguez fired 21 times at the couple. One of the victims, Sarah Milgram, desperately crawling away. fighting for her life before being gunned down by the suspect. Sources tell Fox News now the DOJ is considering more charges for the gunman.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
Do you know how silly that sounds? Kristi Noem says. Suck it. That. She says that coming to the United States in a student visa for any foreigner. is a privilege, and she is correct. It is not a right that anybody has. Joey, what about the argument that it's simply incumbent upon the U.S. government to vet foreign students?
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
You know, rather than getting rid of them, what about vetting them more thoroughly?
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
In the wake of those anti-Semitic executions, officials now cracking down on college campuses that critics say have really become hotbeds of anti-Semitism. A federal judge granting Harvard University just a moment ago a temporary restraining order after the Trump administration earlier, the president put other universities on notice. Take a listen.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
Certainly if you're going to threaten people, too, and make them not just feel unsafe, but actually be unsafe on college campuses. I think that's Secretary Noem's strongest argument, right? That university is failing its most basic commitment, right, which is to keep its students safe. FROM PHYSICAL HARM.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
So, Greg, why did you do it? Why did you ruin Harvard University, Columbia University?
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
Hello, everyone. I'm Jillian Turner, along with Paul Morrow, Jessica Tarlow, Joey Jones, and Gregory Gutfeld. It's 5 o'clock in New York City. This is The Five. President Trump says he is cracking down on anti-Semitism at Harvard. This is we learn chilling new details now about the murder of a young Jewish couple in the nation's capital two days ago. They were targeted because they're Jews.
The Five
The Five 05-23-2025
All right. Well, stick with us, because coming up next, we're going to talk about this, the alleged cover up of President Biden's decline. Is it done his party irreparable damage? We're going to get into it.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
He does have a birth certificate and we didn't see him. Yes, he's not African.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Wouldn't be the first time that I didn't think the Biden administration did their comms correctly.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
I have maintained that this is going to be an issue for 2028. Everyone who is going to be on that enormous debate stage is going to have a huge primary, is going to have to talk about past comments or, you know, what they knew and when they knew it.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
There are folks out there who are refuting aspects of Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson's reporting, like Rufus Gifford, who is a longtime fundraiser for the Democrats who was on with Mark Halperin. And Mark Halperin found him to be quite convincing in what he was saying. That was from the fundraiser where he said he didn't recognize George Clooney. But it's obviously a real thing. And it's...
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
A sad thing, I guess, about American politics, that the way our system works is we're just in a binary choice and it's Democrats versus Republicans. There's no real way for a third party to get there. And people are going to go to the polls in 2026 and then again in 2028. And they're going to make a choice between the Republican candidate and the Democratic candidate.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
And I think smart Democrats are focusing on the issues that matter to people, which is the economy right now. Already mentioned the tariffs, which are a huge tax on the American public. Downgrading our credit. Michigan Consumer Survey sentiment shows 30 percent drop since November. People are expecting inflation to get over 7 percent again in the next year.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
They are pessimistic about our economic prospects. That's what Donald Trump promised that he was going to deliver. And it's a really big deal that the reconciliation bill, the big, beautiful bill, failed out of the Budget Committee. And it's going to cut $880 billion from Medicaid, which Americans don't want. Those are the kinds of things that Democrats need to be focused on. Answer the questions.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
I think Pete Buttigieg did a really good job. But it's going to be about the kitchen table issues, as always, when the election comes.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Turns out the MAGA manosphere isn't so bad after all. Daily Show host Jordan Klepper is preparing for a MAGA-focused documentary and telling Variety that young Trump voters surprised him. He said, quote, I expected to be confronted by a bunch of Richards, but the cruelty wasn't there. Emily, I didn't know Richards. Is that like Boy Karens? I had never seen that before.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Well, I think he said like that. Oh, you changed it. Oh, I'm a dum-dum. No, it's profanity.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Except for you. I love you. Love you, too. Thanks for translating that for me, Greg. Are you surprised that young Trumpers are nice boys?
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
I, too, feel that foreign gulags are compassionate. OK, Fan Mail Friday is up next. Thank you.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
I would like to fly. I have the not enough credits thing. And then I haven't been going to English class in particular. which is strange because I always went to English class.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
But the one that's really traumatic is, and I know that some version of this exists for a lot of people, but mine is, like, we're on a train car, me and my nuclear family, so my dad, mom, and sister, and somebody has to be thrown off.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Wow. For a whole host of reasons. She was in the dream. Do you choose? I always wake up before I have to choose. But I always say, I should go. It should be me.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Jesse would be like, everyone else, I'm staying. Jesse's like, I don't. And I'm like, I die.
The Five

warm my heart a nine-month-old baby is the first person to successfully be treated with personalized gene editing therapy amazing kg muldoon was born with a rare genetic disorder affecting the liver that has a high fatality rate instead of waiting for kj to be old enough for the transplant the children's hospital of philadelphia used an innovative technology that could locate and correct the one uniquely mutated gene out of 20 000 in his little body his months of infusions to still too early for doctors to say whether he's cured but he's meeting all of his developmental milestones
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
It was really stupid, but it is also First Amendment protected speech. And 86ing, I'm not as familiar with the mafia lingo, but I do know what happens in restaurants when they say, like, 86 the meatloaf, and that means they're out of meatloaf. I also know that if you go on Amazon, you can find tons of swag that says 8646, which I guess in Jesse's terms was about kill Joe Biden.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
I know on Donald Trump's Truth Social feed that I saw that video with Joe Biden hogtied in the back of a truck, which I'm pretty sure means, you know, don't treat him with respect that the, you know, the office. But it wasn't the FBI director who was doing that stuff.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Well, it was actually the former president of the United States and a candidate to be president of the United States again, amplifying something like that. Matt Gaetz has tweeted about it at 86 saying right wing activists have done 86, 46. And now they're totally outraged. But. I'll cycle back. Really stupid. It's not up there.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
And, you know, I have 11 days before the election coming out and saying that they're reopening the investigation into Hillary Clinton to be the most stupid and that that did actually cost her the election in the end in 2016. But. James Comey has bothered me once again. It is leading every cycle. I wanted to come in and talk about the big, beautiful bill failing in the House Budget Committee.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
And now I have to talk about Comey. So mission accomplished that way. But it was just dumb. Let's let's play this from Tulsi Gabbard with Jesse last night.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Not in dispute at all. Approval rating bump. That's real life. I live and die by the polls, but that is directly related to him cleaning up his own tariffs mess. So that's moving from the hundred and forty five percent tariff on China to just 30 percent where, you know, you saw the CEO from Walmart, I presume, saying that the prices are going to go up. So we'll wait for that.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
And while we were in the commercial break, Moody's downgraded our credit for the first time in the agency's history. So all good news all around masterclass. In terms of the big headlines, any time that we're not talking about the $400 million bribe that he's taking from the Qataris. And the jet is a good one. But he's been around forever. What?
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Any hoodles. He has all of these big headlines, right? We're getting all of this investment, like the $8.5 billion. out of Qatar for Texas energy company McDermott. That was already announced in 2023 and 2024. Abu Dhabi, he says, a new $200 billion. That's a cloud computing deal with Amazon, also announced during the Biden administration. Saudi is allegedly giving us $600 million. We haven't-
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
Billion, I'm sorry. Haven't documented all of it, but we do know that the project, the airport project was announced last August. So the Washington Post has documented all of this, that at least a half a dozen of the contracts that he's talking about happened under the Biden administration. And that is something that Trump likes to do.
The Five
The Five 05-16-2025
He likes to show up and then take credit for things that other people did. The other half, I give it to you. Three hundred billion of the six hundred billion. But don't go out there and say you got one point four trillion in investment when you didn't really. Or at least give a nice signal to the previous guy and say, hey, there is no previous guy.
