Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
All America, all the time. Sit down, buckle up, and get ready for The Dan Bongino Show. Why are they all saying the same thing? Don't we pay these people in Washington, D.C. as lawmakers and legislators? Don't we pay them for original thoughts? Now, you may sarcastically say, well, you know, of course we do, but we know they're politicians. No, I'm serious. Why do we have a system of federalism?
We have state powers, federal powers.
Chapter 2: Why are all Democrats saying the same thing about prices?
You have state, local, tribal authorities, territorial authorities. Like we pay them to think for their constituents because people who live in different regions of the United States don't all have the same concerns. Do you really care about sanitation in the subway if you live in a portion of Colorado that doesn't have a subway? The answer is no, you do not.
So why are they all saying the same thing, these leftist lawmakers? The answer is they're telling you a story, not the story. It's all boat, all of it. You can see it. I got that. I have a, you know, I'm very optimistic. I just want to kind of level set here where we're going.
If you listen to the show regularly or if you're new, I'll just tell you right now, I am very optimistic about the future of AI and quantum computing, how it's going to add to our quality of life. It's going to do amazing things for productivity. I think in the end, hopefully we will be better off. I say hopefully because I'm not naive about it either.
My experience in government was great, wonderful. However, there were some things that scared me a bit. And one of them is that I'm not sure right now we are ready to handle what AI could do.
Chapter 3: What is the significance of federalism in American politics?
There's a video that popped yesterday about a new AI system so powerful that it was only given to a very select group of American-based companies first because they're afraid of what this thing could do. If you haven't heard about it, it's been shaking up and quaking up the internet for a couple of days now. So I just want to give you a balanced perspective that this is a real threat.
Cyber intrusions, a blackout of our grid. That's not a year down the road. It's now. Like right now. I've got that. Also, the vice president with a necessary speech yesterday on the blackpilling going on and how unrealistic it is. Everyone hold Braveheart style. Big show for you today. Listen, people are fed up with the American healthcare system.
The insurance companies, the delays, the runarounds, being told what you can and can't access. Here's what's happening. People are waking up. They're done playing the game. They're finding better options and taking control of their healthcare. One of those options is all family pharmacy. I use them. I've been telling you about these guys because they're the real deal.
You gotta be prepared, folks. And this is not your typical pharmacy. They're an independent American pharmacy not answering to insurance companies. They're on a mission to fix what's broken and put control back where it belongs between you and the doctor. Very simple.
They carry hard-to-find medications like ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, bendazole, methylene blue, but they also carry NAD, I love NAD, antibiotics, antivirals, and everyday prescriptions for blood pressure, thyroid, I take thyroid medication, and diabetes. All in one place. Shipped right to your door. Here's how it works.
You go online, you fill out a short medical form, a licensed doctor reviews it and prescribes if appropriate, and your medication ships straight to your door. It's really that easy. My advice, don't wait until you're sick. Don't wait for an emergency. Have the medications on hand now. There's no downside. Prepare now. Keep your medicine cabinet stocked.

Prescription required. Always consult a medical professional before taking any medications. This is not medical advice. Ding, ding.
Folks, we are not, I am proud to be part of the Republican MAGA conservative movement. We are not automatons, okay? We are not freaking robots. We are not the Borg from Star Trek. We have a big tent of people who think very differently about similar topics. You see it now, I bring it up in context of today's show because you're seeing it with the war in Iran.
There are, thankfully, a lot of opinions out there. And I do mean that, thankfully. I'm not talking about the doomers who are just talking smack. I'm talking about people who have an honest, heartfelt, candid, sincere opinion about the war.

Chapter 4: How does AI impact the future of political discourse?
You're not only, of course, allowed to have that. It's your constitutional big R, God-given right. But it's welcome in the tent. Why? Why? Because it keeps us sharp. We are not the current thing party. You see it in polling, in the support for President Trump, the alignment with the MAGA movement. You see it.
However, there are some people with some dissident voices, and it does keep everybody frosty. We shouldn't have a war in Iran where no one's asking questions, period. We should be asking questions. I don't care how much you support any politician. However, when they answer those questions, we should digest the answer and not ignore it and then go make up a different answer. Correct?
That's how inputs and outputs work. The Democrats do not do this. The Democrats are a party of the current thing. They are told what the current thing is. The current thing could be defund the police. The current thing can be we're all going to die in 10 years from a climate apocalypse. They are told it goes out from the Borg Central hive mind and it infects all the automatons.
And this is why their movement is falling apart. This is why our movement is not falling apart. Our movement, I think, is actually pretty healthy, even in a time of crisis. Their movement is collapsing. I showed it to you the other day. Dan, produce receipts. I did produce receipts. I showed you the CNN poll the other day.
The Democrats' own favorability rating in their own party is ridiculously low. Because they're being told, you have to think this. Men should be in the women's room. And a lot of sane Democrats, working class electricians from Boston, Massachusetts, who may vote Democrat, don't want to hear that. They're not interested. They don't care.
All they care about is the fuse box and fixing it in the men's room. They don't want men in the women's room. Do not ever fall in this trap. Debate is good. Doomerism. is really awful because it ignores the answers and just does its best to kind of put a blanket on the fire this party's generated. Folks, did you see this video, One Nuclear, yesterday? This is what I'm talking about.
It is the Democrats, when I say reading from the same script, I saw this on the base Mike Lee account, Senator from Utah, obviously a Republican, good guy, I've had him on the show. This video is just kind of like proof positive of what I've been telling you the entire time, how the Democrats, their entire political structure is based on central hive mind, Borg-like thinking. That's it.
They are not allowed to think separately. Here they are, all reading from the same script, and I'll end with Hakeem Jeffries talking last. It's all about their talking points. Inflation's out of control. The inflation number just came in. It's actually well under control. It just came in this morning. Let me commit it, like 2.7, 2.8. It just came in. They're just making this stuff up.
Check this out. All right.

Chapter 5: What are the dangers of AI in terms of cybersecurity?
There were a boatload of arrests in California. Now we have arrests in Michigan. Michigan man pleads guilty to defrauding Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance for nearly $2 million. FBI investigated the case with HHS. DOJ is part of the fraud takedown. More to come. OK, I promise you now they're moving on to something else. And when that happens, they'll move on to something else.
Here's another one. Like, what are you guys doing about the leakers? Well, we were doing I told you that yesterday. Well, here's another one. FBI's arrested a former SOCOM employee who supported military warfighters for allegedly transmitting classified information to a member of the media. That's out of the FBI Charlotte office. It's okay. It is okay to say, hey, I want more.
It should happen faster. That's okay. But you know what's not okay? Black billing and Doomer bullshit that, oh, that's not happening at all. It is happening. You're just making it up. You're seeing it now with Iran, too. This just began. It just started. To have a realistic assessment of where we are, you can't say nothing happened over there. The situation is worse.
And then when we say, well, their ballistic missile capabilities reduced, their drone program has been nearly destroyed, at least the infrastructure, they'll build more. They'll build more. When you say now we've got eyes on their nuclear material, their Navy's at the bottom of the ocean, they don't want to process any of that.
It's really crazy when a Reuters reporter on Twitter is giving you a more realistic assessment than the people secreting themselves inside of our own so-called MAGA tent who are telling you Trump's gone crazy, the 25th Amendment. What are you talking about, liberals? No, I'm talking about people pretending to be one of us. who grifted off the Trump administration the entire time.
That's what Scavino is talking about. A bunch of influencer bullshitters who tried to make a fortune off Trump's name, and the second a level 10 decision had been made, they shit the bed, started freaking out, doing this bullshit routine. Trump has lost it. He's gone crazy. Here's a Reuters reporter at Phil D. Stewart. Iranian authorities see the truth with the U.S.
and Israel as a strategic victory. but they emerge battered and isolated with an economy in tatters, little prospect of rapid recovery, and an impoverished, embittered population. After weeks of U.S.
and Israeli strikes, many Iranians have lost their jobs, prices have surged, factories, power plants, railways, airports, and bridges have been destroyed, and the critical trading relationship with the Gulf states has been severed maybe for decades. This is Reuters. This is not some big pro-MAGA outlet. Is there something about that you don't like? How come GB News gets in?
GB News is a foreign outlet. They're pretty fair, however. The foreign media outlet. Here is a host on GB News just stating the fairly obvious. It said you've got to move media offshore for them to get a realistic assessment of where Donald Trump's head is. No, it's not 25th Amendment territory, you losers.

Chapter 6: What are the implications of a wealth tax on the economy?
I thought Trump chickened out. They may become chicken feed and fertilizer, the bad guys, but you like your cutesy little thing? Taka, taka. You supported Joe Biden, who left billions of dollars of high-quality American military equipment for enemies of the United States to take in Afghanistan. You got the balls to talk about taco? So Griff Jenkins is like, I got one. How about nacho?
Yeah, how about nacho? I really like nacho. What the hell is nacho? I don't know. Listen to Griff. So Democrats are already saying that this is taco. Trump always chickens out. Let me give you another acronym. Nacho never avoids confronting hard obstacles. And that's exactly what President Trump did.
I'm hungry. I made that up on my own. That's pretty good.
Because I was thinking about the opposite of what that would be. He didn't check it out.
He's willing to confront what previous presidents for 47 years couldn't do to stand up to him
I told you, yes, Griff, he does not avoid difficult obstacles. And I told you this when everybody was warning about Trump 47 during the primary. And they were saying, why would we elect him again? He's going to be a lame duck. I said, man, you're reading this all wrong. You are totally misjudging this entire situation.
I said, I promise you, this is going to be the most impactful four years you were ever going to see because there's no pressure for him to get reelected. He's not going to be getting squeezed by donors for reelection efforts or any of this stuff. Trump is going to go in there having learned from 45.
and the campaign after that, he is going to have learned that he cannot rely on deep state bureaucrats and others. He has to maximize his presidential power within the bounds of the constitution to move the ball as fast as he can and to push the legislators to do everything they can. And that's exactly what he did, including his greatest power of all being CIC commander in chief.
He could have pushed the problem off. And he didn't. You don't think he knows this is going to, because we have a diverse base and people in our base who don't like foreign interventions and war. I get it. I get it. I don't either. And I'm not reflexively defending President Trump because he's a friend. Whether you believe that or not is up to you. If you hate my guts, just don't listen.

Chapter 7: Why did Zohran Mamdani back down on his free NYC buses promise?
This is not a tyranny. You don't have to listen to my show. Just go away. It's okay. I'm not angry at you. The show's not for everyone. But I think I've been pretty fair because I owe it to you to give you a lodestar. And here are my principles. And unless we get new inputs, we're not going to change. We've had some disagreements about some issues. I don't disagree with him here.
You had a regime, this is very simple, to explain to all the influencer class out there that's trying to shit on President Trump. You had a regime that was in possession of nuclear material for one purpose. You do not enrich uranium to 60 and 90% for anything other than one reason, to create a nuclear bomb. That is it. There is not another option. It's not medical equipment.
It's not for a PET scan you're going to have done for cancer. That's not why you do that. Well, other regimes have nuclear weapons and other governments have nuclear weapons too. They do. We wish they did not. However, this one is not a legitimate government. It is a fundamentalist theocracy that openly advocates for death to America. It is a qualitatively different situation.
If you don't know that, I'm sorry I can't help you. I heard Piers Morgan on his show the other day, confused as to why we would treat Israel and the nuclear program, why they just don't come out with it versus, he was suggesting like, I should just admit it, why they don't come out with it versus Iran. Why? Because they're not threatening to annihilate us with a nuclear weapon. Are you stupid?
Are you dumb? No, I'm as serious as a heart attack. You don't understand that? Let me make this really simple for like peers and others. Why do we not treat nuclear powers out there that aren't screaming death to America differently than we scream death to America. You're in a bar one night. Bar's getting a little rowdy.
You've got a guy that comes up to you, 6'5", 350 pounds, looks like got cauliflower. Your guy's a real badass. Hey, Dan, I'm a big fan of the show, man. Want to buy a drink? Yeah, sure, thanks. I didn't want to talk about the show. Then you've got another guy. Same thing. Maybe 6'6", 400 pounds. He looks like Alistair Overeem, another UFC fighter, right?
That guy throws ice at you and goes, hey, man, I'm going to kick your ass outside. Why do you treat them different? Because one wants to kick your fucking ass, you moron. Sorry for the cursing. It's been a couple days. Are you this stupid? Why do you treat them different? Because one's a threat and one isn't, you dipshits. I really can't believe we're having this discussion right now.
Yeah, laser eyeballs. Sorry about the F-bomb, folks. I really should have warned you. I'm trying. Jasmine's giving me the look. I'm sorry. We're probably going to lose some people. And I don't blame you. I should have warned you. Yeah, Justin said it right. Death to America can mean a lot of things. You know, maybe they don't mean it, even though they've clarified it multiple times.
And when they were asked about a nuclear weapon, lead government officials before they were dead, they were like, yeah, yeah, we just have to be honest. We're trying to build a nuclear bomb. And then the other people like Pierce, well, why would they be wanting to build a nuclear bomb? And you see these other influencers, they weren't trying to build a nuclear bomb.

Chapter 8: How do political narratives influence public perception?
Not the sincere objections and concerns, but the doomers. This is how the left went down in flames with current thing bullshit. Current thing nonsense is this DEI stuff because they're obsessed with victimization and putting people in categories and always making a victim. This was a universal moment of joy. We rescued a pilot.
And this is, you really believe, Lawrence O'Donnell, I'm asking a question. This is sincere. Do you really believe a West Virginia carpenter or a plumber
who may vote Democrat and may occasionally tune into your outlet, really gives a shit that Pete Hegseth, after they rescued a pilot and showed our American military bravery and technological superiority, do you think any sane, rational actor who votes Democrat is looking at that going, oh my gosh, I can't believe Pete dared, he didn't include man or woman? Are you serious?
I want to remind you too about left-wing media coverage of this entire thing. In case you think any of this is sincere, this is the great Mays Moore. I can't recommend this account enough. Listen, this is very important to me. I am a content creator. I have been for a long time. I've been blessed with an amazing audience.
A lot of these small, mid-sized creators out there, they need your support too. It is not about me. It is about the movement. I'm not going to be here forever. I'm not dying or anything. I'm just saying, like, I'm not going to be doing the show forever. I enjoy the show. It's fun. It is really important to support medium and small creators. there are really good ones out there.
Mazemore is one of them, at Mazemore. There's the account, M-A-Z-E-M-O-O-R-E. There is a fantastic content on there. If you're ever doing a show or you want to see great videos, be sure to check. It's like a free promo, but it's worth it. It's worth it. This guy has made my show prep sometimes so easy. Here's a video he put up. This is one of his better ones.
This is CNN's Erin Burnett taking completely contradictory positions about the threat of Iranians' nuclear stockpile basically over the course of just a few months on the matter, showing you again, I don't mind principled criticism or questions about our men in theater. Men in theater. Yes, that includes women too. I mean that generically. There you go. Men. Men in theater.
We're going to use that term, okay? I don't mind that. It's a good thing. They could die. I mean, tautologically. What I do mind is bullshit and nonsense like weather vane stuff. Check this out.
This timeline of Iran being a few weeks away from a nuclear bomb is in direct contradiction to CNN's reporting. According to U.S. intelligence assessments, Iran is three years away from being able to produce a nuclear weapon if they wanted to. So the facts on Iran getting a nuclear weapon do not bear out the claim at the heart of what has put the world on the verge of world war.
