10 Mar 2026

Transcription

Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?

2.697 - 27.4 Dan Bongino

All America, all the time. Sit down, buckle up, and get ready for The Dan Bongino Show. So I like hanging in the chat, or at least reading the chat. I made a couple comments today. 10, 10, and 10. Get out. Make sure. 10 posts before the election. 10 phone calls. 10 emails before the midterms. We got to win. We lose. President Trump gets impeached. Period. But I was hanging out in the chat room.

0

27.862 - 48.63 Dan Bongino

And I got to tell you, number one, I'm really flattered by, you know, Jasmine and I were chatting. She was sitting in the chair right over there before the show. And I was saying how we've got this crew of like, I don't know what it is, 10, 20,000 or so people. I don't want to exaggerate, but just absolute, like, Dan Bongino show diehards. And I love you guys and ladies. You're the best.

0

49.171 - 70.317 Dan Bongino

One of them, Star Wars man or something, forgive me, I forget the name in the chat, said, hey, man, I got to go to work. I watch the show on demand later. But was, like, hanging out in the chat before the show. Like, that's awesome, man. Star Wars man or dude or guy or Star Wars McGrane, whatever your thing was. If you can find that, man, that's awesome. He was hanging.

0

70.337 - 88.375 Dan Bongino

He's going to watch the show later. He's got to go to work. Hey, people got things to do. I like to be first at the beginning of the day. That's why we do the show early, because I don't want to ever be accused. Here's why. You want to know why? Not to get off topic, but this is important. I never, ever want to be accused of stealing people's stuff. So we go pretty much first.

0

88.395 - 113.729 Dan Bongino

Well, Vince goes at 8, but I'm doing show prep at 8. So I never want to be accused of that. Someone else in the chat wrote before, hey, Dan, People are saying it's going to be World War III. What do you think? Folks, the Iranians, the Russians won't even give them super sensitive missile technology or China because they know the Iranian mullahs are freaking crazy.

114.17 - 122.142 Dan Bongino

And the Iranian mullahs sending ballistic missiles and drones all over the Middle East to countries, some countries that...

122.122 - 145.621 Dan Bongino

in the past may have been considered even quasi allies of them does not bode well for you sharing nuclear weapons technology with them in the future because they know if the iranians had nuclear weapons that they would have just launched the nukes everywhere and destroyed everything The World War III talk is like, listen, man, I'm always worried about World War III.

145.701 - 166.88 Dan Bongino

Of course, you know, it's a possibility someday some global conflict will break out involving nuclear weapons. Let's all pray and hope to God that never happens. But let's be realistic, too. World War III, we've heard this a thousand times. The Abraham Accords, World War III, move the embassy. World War III, Soleimani. World War III, Baghdadi. How about that? World War III.

166.9 - 183.264 Dan Bongino

It always World War III. I want to see freaking data. I'm sorry. After you've made 20 predictions about World War III and zero of them have worked out, I kind of am like ready to move on from you. Am I crazy?

Chapter 2: What alarming footage was released from Operation Epic Fury in Iran?

352.842 - 373.699 Dan Bongino

Can't beat that. It's the best long-term storable food you can find. Get a kit for every member of your family. It'll give you 2,000 calories a day of real meals made with real ingredients, no artificial flavors or colors, and shelf lives measured in decades. That's a lot of food insurance right there. Look, we all know we need to have some food stored for emergencies. Everyone's done it.

0

373.819 - 394.497 Dan Bongino

Our ancestors. This is the only generation where people are like, you got to go do it. Why not get it from MyPatriotSupply, the most trusted folks in the business? Get a free week of food while you're at it. Go to preparewithdan.com. Get your free week of emergency food today. That's preparewithdan.com. You guys liked the shirt yesterday, by the way. This is a blue one.

0

395.058 - 417.992 Dan Bongino

All America, all that time. The lovely Paula, she loves this design insurance. It's her thing. So she's very proud of it. You can pick one up. If you want one at Bongino.com, up to you, of course, totally. So this is going to be a huge monster. Not going to be. It already is. Disregard. Rewind the tape. Scratch sound. It already is a problem.

0

418.657 - 441.702 Dan Bongino

The problem is it's going to be an even bigger problem going forward. The left has figured out through weaponizing government, which again, we are doing our best and did our best to clean up. It is not going to happen overnight. Again, I'm not going to bullshit you. All these other people out there, oh, you should have come in there at day one and axed the entire place. Really?

0

442.202 - 459.743 Dan Bongino

You understand how these government hiring rules, people sue, they get their jobs back and they get money. Then you can never get rid of them. The government system is so bureaucratic and a mess. The left knows this. Entrench people, weaponize the government. Now they want to layer on another layer of security.

459.983 - 479.892 Dan Bongino

So if they engage in another Donald Trump, Donald Trump supporter targeting episode, they want to be sure even if they can't use the government to do it, they can use state liberal governments and they can weaponize juries. Look at this post by Carrie Severino. You need to check this out. She's a really great analyst about what goes on in the judicial branch of government.

480.783 - 504.401 Dan Bongino

She says, presenting the left wing dark money apparatus's latest scheme to influence judicial outcomes. Read this and weep. It wasn't enough for George Soros and the dark money web to back far left prosecutors who release criminals or to bolster judges who ignore the rule of law. This is just another aspect of the legal system these groups are trying to infiltrate. This is huge. Check this out.

504.861 - 523.979 Dan Bongino

We saw it. Left-wing activist groups are teaching libs now how to get through jury selection and vote not guilty on Trump DOJ prosecution's recording show. Folks, not an excuse, a freaking explanation. If we don't understand the problem, we're never going to be able to fix it.

524.459 - 548.491 Dan Bongino

This is a huge problem because you can appoint everyone you want in the USIC, the intel community, the FBI, the DOJ, select whoever you want for president. If we can't get, prosecutions on public corruption because they're just going to vote no on anyone put over there. This is a huge problem. Now, that's already impacted us in a number of cases.

Chapter 3: What shocking poll is forcing Democrats to adjust their midterm strategy?

801.739 - 822.25 Dan Bongino

Because it's CNN. It always gets worse. But in less than an hour, when they stopped sunning their nuts, their lives would drastically change. Gee, why would their lives change? Why do you think that is? He said it right. It's just crazy when you throw a couple bombs.

0

823.071 - 841.51 Dan Bongino

The beginning of this is framed like their lives changed, like they were sunning their balls and someone came and kicked them in the nuts and put a bomb next to their nuts or something. Their lives drastically changed. That's crazy how that happens. Their lives would drastically change as the pair would be arrested for throwing homemade bombs. Here we finally get to it.

0

841.53 - 853.314 Dan Bongino

During an anti-Muslim protest outside of Mayor Mondami's home, here's what we know so far, acting as if Mamdani, the liberal lunatic, that they bombed his house.

0

Chapter 4: How is the new Supreme Leader of Iran impacting U.S. relations?

854.035 - 876.825 Dan Bongino

So people are responding back. I saw some lady comment that her friend read the tweet and was like, man, that's so crazy. Like, they attacked Mamdani. The lady's like, what the fuck are you talking about? They didn't attack Mamdani. They attacked the Jake Lang protest. It had nothing to do with Mamdani. What are you talking about? Oh, my gosh.

0

878.948 - 908.422 Dan Bongino

That weirdest, he's like, this has got to be the weirdest. That is top 10 craziest freaking tweets you've ever seen. Their lives would drastically change. That happens when you throw bombs and shit. That happens. That happens. Here's my PSA of the day. Do we even need to say this? I think we do. Republicans pounce. Who just said that? Lesko Brandone in the chat, Republicans bounce. It's so true.

0

909.003 - 935.574 Dan Bongino

Here's, Justin, PSA for the day. If you don't want your life, as CNN said, to drastically change, Justin, is this not good advice? It's a good idea to not do a TATP bomb. load it with shrapnel, and throw it at an event. Pretty good advice? Justin says it's sound. He's doing the Spock thing. Your logic is sound. I'm not even a Star Trek fan. I like more kind of Star Wars, and I like these guys.

0

935.594 - 956.9 Dan Bongino

But, you know, whatever. The logic there is sound. Throwing bombs, bad idea. Folks, don't do it. Friends don't let friends throw TATP bombs at a protest. Because CNN tells you your life may drastically change. I'm almost crying here. That's why my eyes are all red. I cannot believe we have to address this kind of shit on the air.

0

962.409 - 983.222 Dan Bongino

Do you understand if we had an honest media, the world would be a completely different place? And here's the real kick in the gonads here. That this president, he obviously can't stand the left-wing media. I can't either. But he understands he's the president in a republic. And he is still, still easily...

983.371 - 1009.125 Dan Bongino

Easily, by a long shot, based on the number of press availabilities, pressers, and questions he answers. By a moonshot, is the most accessible president in American history. There's not even a close second. I take that back. There is a close second. You know who it is? Trick question. Ah, damn it. You got it. Yes, he's finally. Yes, Trump 45 is the closest. Same guy. Same guy.

1009.983 - 1032.027 Dan Bongino

Here's John Carl in a video. John Carl's an ABC reporter. He's a left-leaning guy. Not the most left-leaning guy, but he's doing a TikTok video. Don't take my word for it. Despite the fact that the media just constantly shits on us, this president, all the time with stupid posts like that, he still takes their calls. By the way, I can vouch. I said this out of pat on the back, oh, look at me.

1032.388 - 1049.719 Dan Bongino

I rarely, if ever, call the president, rarely, okay? I don't pretend me and him are coffee buddies and friends. We're friends in the sense that I worked for him. I don't bust his chops and waste his time on the phone. He doesn't need to hear from me. He's got things going on.

Chapter 5: What are the potential consequences of the current U.S. foreign policy in Iran?

1049.9 - 1064.492 Dan Bongino

I don't waste his time. However, these reporters call, and he picks up the phone, talks to anyone, even after they shit on him. This is the most accessible president in history. I thought he was a fascist. No more kings. Here, listen to John Carl talk about it himself.

0

1064.641 - 1088.448 Unknown

I've covered five different presidents. I have never seen one other than Donald Trump, who regularly takes phone calls from reporters. So I thought I would talk a little bit about that. I've spoken to him over the phone three times since the military operation, the war against Iran started. In each of those cases, I simply called him and he answered.

0

1088.688 - 1094.395 Dan Bongino

Some of the conversations are short. Some of them can be quite lengthy. I talked to him today.

0

1094.375 - 1126.22 Dan Bongino

during the middle of the afternoon uh and the call lasted for about 20 minutes i mean guys ladies come on i'm just asking you in the chat like let's be real here even if you're a trump hater does this sound like the activities of a monarch a fascist a king the king kings were accessible like that people just used to walk into the palace and say uh Walk into the castle. King Joey bag of donuts.

0

1126.841 - 1154.725 Dan Bongino

I got a couple questions. I got me some questions. When the hell did that ever happen? What? This an update? They didn't know way. Is this real? Live time. Hold on. First in a long time. Live time. Dan Bongino show update showing you the show is live. We're not messing with you. The Watch, for someone who noticed yesterday. Different one today. But whatevs.

1155.345 - 1175.209 Dan Bongino

CNN, update on the craziest post of all time. A post regarding the two individuals arrested for throwing homemade bombs outside of Mamdami's home failed to... I'm sorry. Failed to reflect the gravity of the incident, thereby breaching the editorial standards we require...

1175.695 - 1204.42 Dan Bongino

we require for all of our reporting it has therefore been deleted too late CNN the Dan Bongino show already reported on it what do you I know that's yes that is that Justin said there were two words in that tweet doing a shit ton of work that's editorial and standards CNN all of a sudden is editorial standards that just happened that is a live time Dan Bongino show curveball right there

1206.509 - 1232.663 Dan Bongino

That, how the hell did that pass by like five or six people at CNN who read that and said, ah, that sounds all right. You don't want your life substantially upended. Don't throw freaking bombs. Speaking of which, one of the things I told you I was going to hit you with a lot of information. I haven't even, here, you want to see how the show looks? Look at this. Folks in the chat, check this out.

1233.404 - 1253.215 Dan Bongino

I have to... Doing stuff on the screen is no good, okay? I'm not going to get into that now, but you got to write stuff. When your body writes stuff, your brain activates differently. Look it up yourself. There's a ton of research. I write stuff. I can type it. I got to, here's my phone. I mean, tablet, whatever. You got to write something. I write the show down. There it is. Write it down, okay?

Chapter 6: How is technology evolving in the context of national security?

1434.809 - 1455.73 Dan Bongino

Again, the diehards, you're with me. To the new people listening to the show, what do you got? 57.4 thousand, 25 minutes in, thank you. To the, say, maybe 5 thousand who are new here, no one was ever shrinking government jobs, even Republicans. They were like, yeah, we're going to shrink government. They get in office, we're going to shrink government. Nah, I just said that on the campaign trail.

0

1455.75 - 1480.119 Dan Bongino

The government's down 10 percent, the workforce. So liberals are like, well, jobs numbers are a little down. Yeah, because they're pushing people back into the private workforce from the government. It's going to take a while. And even the jobs numbers are pretty good in the private sector. Nobody was going to do this but him. Hence the title of today's show. about this shock poll.

0

1480.379 - 1505.765 Dan Bongino

I say shock poll because the Democrats don't, this was on Mediaite of all places. Mediaite is about as left wing as it gets. They love like taking shots at conservatives. It's just their thing. I know I shouldn't be giving them clicks, but it's kind of funny to read the site. It really is. That guy puts a smile on my face. Wild new poll. Again, wild. This is not going to be wild to you.

0

1506.305 - 1534.44 Dan Bongino

Finds that Trump is more popular than Newsom and Kamala and ICE is more popular than the Democrats. Folks, you want it to Isaac Shore media yesterday. You want to talk about a shakeup. This was the subject of like a whole shit ton of left wing commentary yesterday who can't figure it out. Believe me, they were shocked by this. Trump be more popular than hair gel. Newsom, like, come on. Newsom?

0

1534.46 - 1546.655 Dan Bongino

Newsom, they love Newsom. He's presidential timber. Based on what? And that heist, put that headline up again. The second part of that. They don't know what to think.

Chapter 7: What strategies are being discussed to combat the threat of sleeper cells in the U.S.?

1546.675 - 1566.245 Dan Bongino

The Democrats are like, this shakes up our whole national messaging strategy now. I thought Trump was universally unpopular. Takes out the Ayatollah, locks up Maduro, the borders shut down, the economy's growing again, government shrinking, crime rates at historic lows, murder rate historic lows, drug interdictions, fentanyl deaths down. What the hell?

0

1566.565 - 1592.366 Dan Bongino

I cannot believe Trump is more popular than Newsom. As my mother-in-law Miriam would say, I cannot believe. There it is. ICE is more popular than the Dems. I thought everybody hated ICE. The Democrats are shutting down the government right now. A large swath of the government's security apparatus called the Department of Homeland Security. Liberals may have heard of this for the first time today.

0

1592.727 - 1616.58 Dan Bongino

It's called the Department of Homeland Security. What do you guys think the Department of Homeland Security is involved in? Justin's like, I don't know, maybe Homeland Security. Ding, ding, ding! Winner, winner, chicken dinner. Maybe fried chicken. Maybe spicy herb chicken. I don't know. Department of Homeland Security, the Democrats have it shut down right now. Fact. Fact!

0

1617.302 - 1640.236 Dan Bongino

F-A-C-T, all caps, exclamation point. They have it shut down right now because they swear everyone on planet Earth hates ICE and CBP for assisting in getting illegals out of the country and shedding the border. That doesn't seem to be the case. You see the headline yourself. ICE, more popular than Dems. The Dems are like, I don't know what to do. They're clawing. They're face clawing.

0

1640.477 - 1662.243 Dan Bongino

They're clawing. They're plucking hairs out. They're putting fingers in the ears. Ah, da, da, da, da, da. The guys are like, are you okay? Yes, I'm just in a mood. I got to tell you, it's not even the greatest news day, but I put together this show. What I say to you guys, this one's going to be a banger. Why? Because I'm just in a mood today. This is why we got to turn up the votes.

1662.263 - 1687.095 Dan Bongino

This is why I popped in the chat this morning. Guys, I'm serious, okay? No messing around. If you're not going to do the 10, 10, and 10 thing, you're not serious about winning. I'm sorry. 10, 10, 10 is the minimum. You should do 100, 100, 100, but I want to be realistic. People got jobs and lives. 10 phone calls, 10 emails, 10 social media posts about where people can vote, how they can vote,

1687.818 - 1710.749 Dan Bongino

who you support, why you support them, mix it up, match them, put the link to, I live in Martin County, Florida, Martin County Board of Elections, where they can register, where their poll location is. It's really important you do this. If we get the now 60,000 people here in the chat a half an hour in to do that, do you have any idea the force magnification that is?

1711.269 - 1735.341 Dan Bongino

We're not going to win by talking about winning. We're only going to win about doing. I do the 10, 10, and 10. You know how I do it? I mention it 100 times on the show. Folks, please, please, please. We have a shot here. I'm going to let you in on a little secret. The Democrats' gerrymandering has the potential to blow up in their face. What? They gerrymandered their district.

1735.381 - 1755.415 Dan Bongino

You know what gerrymandering is? When you carve up congressional districts in a way that makes them easier to win. Pretty simple stuff. Every party does it. It's not just a Democrat thing. Okay, let's just be clear on that. However, the Democrats carved up, let's just use California, in such a way, follow me, this is super important. Everybody paying attention, stop what you're doing.

Chapter 8: How does the media's portrayal of events influence public perception?

2219.239 - 2249.813 Dan Bongino

Dominating. Poor guy, can't do anything else. Dominating. And it risks drowning out other conflicts. And it's spiking prices on the home front, just as the GOP is meeting on how to tackle the midterms. Spiking prices. Except by this morning, oil prices per barrel had pretty much stabilized. Now, if Ali Bianco and Political Playbook would have applied what rule?

0

2250.493 - 2276.18 Dan Bongino

Yes, the Bongino rule where what do we do, folks? We wait 24 to 72 hours to let a story settle, not before commenting. You can comment on whatever you like, but before drawing some kind of final conclusion, we try not to speculate on the outcomes of ongoing things until the outcomes of actually outcomes. Making up my own words.

0

2277.624 - 2294.14 Dan Bongino

I don't like to comment on how great or terrible a movie was until I've seen the end. Okay? Talk about the movie. Lean over in your chair. I told you. I saw that movie in D.C. with Paula. That movie, Weapons. I looked over in my...

0

2294.39 - 2315.419 Dan Bongino

quickie language I'll ever say I looked over my chair because this is just accurate at Paula she was with me in DC came down to visit me went to Georgetown AMC great movie theater by the way they treated me in the security detail really nice over there so thank you I looked over I go what the fuck is this movie about it was the craziest movie I ever seen however I didn't judge the whole movie you gotta wait till the movie ends

0

2317.272 - 2337.482 Dan Bongino

There could have been, Justin's correct. They could have licensed the Ewoks from Return of the Jedi and they could have popped in. That movie was so crazy, I actually wouldn't have been surprised if Ewoks showed up in the basement. I hated the Ewoks, by the way. I'm really sorry. If there are Ewok fans in the show, I may be cursing myself. I hope you don't leave permanently.

2337.823 - 2358.176 Dan Bongino

I love having you here. The Ewoks were just a horror show. It was a total branding exercise to sell toys. Totally ruined Star Wars. Worse than Jar Jar Binks. I actually prefer Jar Jar Binks over Ewoks. Guy's like, Elizabeth, Guy can't take it. He still thinks the Ewoks were like a great kind of edgy little addition to return. You're wrong.

2358.537 - 2379.914 Dan Bongino

So you're telling me the Imperial Stormtroopers can't defeat a bunch of freaking Lucy-like teddy bears throwing rocks? That's bullshit. But Playbook's telling you about how oil prices have spiked, and the day hadn't even ended yet. Now that oil prices have come down, all of a sudden, nobody knows what to do. Well, what do we do about yesterday's headline?

2379.994 - 2403.383 Dan Bongino

Ah, just move on, pretend it didn't happen. You see how they contour the battlefield? You know what? Put up that tweet, that Mark Penn tweet. Mark Penn, I'm pretty sure, is like a Democrat pollster. I've seen him on Fox. He's not a Republican. Here's Mark Penn. He's like, look at this Iran coverage. He's mocking the media. Here are some of the headlines. Iran regime doing well and in control.

2403.703 - 2427.452 Dan Bongino

They're fucking dead, bro. He's mocking them, by the way, Penn. He's not like celebrating these stupid hellas. They're doing well. Yeah, they're all taking dirt naps. I guess if they wanted to rest permanently, they're doing great. Trump under pressure to end war. From who? Trump will end this war. He doesn't even call it a war, by the way, when he feels like it.
