00:00.00 – 00:02.60

In these crazy times, there's peace of mind and security.

00:02.84 – 00:04.76

But think about this, you're not financially secure

00:04.76 – 00:06.14

if all your eggs are in one basket.

00:06.32 – 00:08.14

Gold and silver can be an excellent way

00:08.14 – 00:09.50

to diversify your savings.

Dan Bongino.

00:31.08 – 00:33.52

Welcome to the Bongino Brief, I'm Dan Bongino.

00:34.42 – 00:36.64

Folks, desperation time is kicking in now.

00:37.50 – 00:39.72

You know, I need everybody to listen to me for a minute.

00:41.98 – 00:46.62

This is the most important election of our lifetime.

00:47.32 – 00:48.90

I know you've heard that before.

00:49.84 – 00:52.36

Scrap everything you've heard before, that's a fact.

00:54.06 – 00:56.40

Sunday, I had to take it easy, long story,

00:56.40 – 00:58.26

but I wasn't feeling that great.

00:58.76 – 01:02.44

And I was sitting on the couch, and I feel good today, so.

01:04.40 – 01:07.20

I was sitting on the couch and I decided to give a watch

01:07.20 – 01:10.92

to Hillbilly Elegy, it's J.D. Vance's autobiography,

01:11.10 – 01:13.90

our new vice presidential nominee for the Trump ticket.

01:15.12 – 01:17.54

I like J.D. Vance, and I have for a long time.

01:17.86 – 01:19.40

You're free to support whoever you like.

01:19.70 – 01:21.80

I love J.D. Vance, I like him a lot.

01:21.86 – 01:24.32

Don't agree with him on everything, but I don't have to.

01:24.32 – 01:28.66

I need decent people in charge, and if I'm with you 80%,

01:28.66 – 01:31.00

the other 20 we can negotiate on, okay?

01:32.88 – 01:34.70

I know this guy to be a decent guy.

01:34.80 – 01:35.96

Have you seen Hillbilly Elegy?

01:36.08 – 01:37.04

Folks in the chat, anyone?

01:38.06 – 01:39.96

If you haven't seen it or read the book,

01:40.98 – 01:44.52

you can knock J.D. Vance for whatever you like, policy-wise.

01:45.14 – 01:46.30

This guy's backstory,

01:48.44 – 01:52.24

having dealt with a family member with addiction,

01:52.44 – 01:53.80

I recently lost,

01:54.32 – 01:57.20

I was having a tough time with the Kleenex,

01:57.26 – 01:57.90

if you know what I mean.

01:58.06 – 01:59.42

And I gotta tell you, I don't really care

01:59.42 – 02:01.90

if it sounds like I got a turn in my man card.

02:01.96 – 02:03.40

I was having a tough time with the movie.

02:04.18 – 02:06.42

It's an amazing movie about his backstory,

02:06.94 – 02:08.78

but it really impacted me deep.

02:10.38 – 02:13.36

This guy has a resume like we've never seen before.

02:14.68 – 02:19.04

United States Marine, entrepreneur, lawyer,

02:19.62 – 02:23.22

United States Senator from Ohio, and he's only 39.

02:24.62 – 02:26.98

What he dealt with in his past is unbelievable.

02:28.16 – 02:29.52

Why am I saying that now?

02:29.58 – 02:30.84

I don't need to sell him, he's the nominee.

02:32.14 – 02:36.30

The attacks by the establishment right on J.D. Vance, right.

02:37.06 – 02:38.48

Well, we expect this from the left,

02:39.16 – 02:40.20

are freaking disgusting.

02:41.30 – 02:42.46

Guys make me sick.

02:45.44 – 02:47.76

I have an expression I say a lot on the show,

02:47.88 – 02:49.72

haven't said in a while, but you know it's true.

02:49.78 – 02:50.84

It's one of my golden rules.

02:51.76 – 02:54.72

It's that most Republicans on Capitol Hill

02:54.72 – 02:58.52

are really Democrats, but no Democrats are really Republicans.

02:59.56 – 03:04.78

Watch how the right-wing media handles Kamala Harris

03:04.78 – 03:08.50

versus how the left-wing media handles J.D. Vance.

03:09.26 – 03:12.42

The fact that establishment Republicans out there

03:12.42 – 03:19.78

are attacking J.D. Vance, that he's weird, he's weird.

03:19.78 – 03:19.90

Weird.

03:21.68 – 03:22.40

Weird.

03:24.26 – 03:29.48

United States Marine, capitalist, made,

03:33.86 – 03:38.58

I mean, I'm really hurt by the whole, he's weird?

03:41.74 – 03:45.56

You got a woman on the other side, a cackling lunatic,

03:46.02 – 03:49.38

who you say anything about her that's true, by the way,

03:49.92 – 03:51.24

borders are whatsoever.

03:51.98 – 03:53.44

You've got establishment conservatives,

03:53.54 – 03:55.16

oh, don't say that, don't say that, don't say that,

03:55.16 – 03:55.90

even though it's true.

03:56.62 – 03:59.04

And then they lie about J.D. Vance,

03:59.90 – 04:01.44

and it's the weirdest thing.

04:01.56 – 04:03.34

Like, you got establishment conservatives like,

04:03.40 – 04:04.80

oh, maybe Trump made the wrong choice.

04:05.04 – 04:06.54

The wrong, are you insane?

04:09.14 – 04:12.28

Grow a pair of motherfucking balls.

04:13.68 – 04:17.66

You've got the best candidate you've seen in eons

04:17.66 – 04:19.86

in the VP spot, and you're shitting on this guy

04:19.86 – 04:23.58

because a bunch of crazily cackling Kamala supporters,

04:23.92 – 04:25.76

you want their support because you think you're,

04:25.94 – 04:27.78

you want to look like the reasonable guy,

04:28.02 – 04:29.76

and you're shitting on this guy

04:29.76 – 04:31.88

despite everything he's done for this country?

04:32.98 – 04:34.76

Hey, you have that J.D. clip at the,

04:34.76 – 04:36.22

I know we were gonna play another one next,

04:36.32 – 04:38.86

but the clip at the, yeah, yeah, that one on the screen.

04:39.18 – 04:39.78

Listen to me.

04:40.86 – 04:42.48

I want you to listen to this.

04:43.88 – 04:46.64

And I'm asking, to you out there who are the diehards,

04:46.64 – 04:48.48

I love you, this is not directed at you.

04:48.60 – 04:49.68

You can turn the show off.

04:49.88 – 04:50.68

Well, don't, but you could.

04:51.48 – 04:54.10

To the establishment shitheads attacking this guy,

04:56.86 – 04:58.04

you're dead to me, man.

04:58.70 – 04:59.64

You're dead to me.

05:00.54 – 05:02.30

This is a good and decent guy,

05:03.24 – 05:06.22

and you're ripping this guy apart over nothing.

05:07.52 – 05:09.04

More in a minute, but first.

05:09.90 – 05:12.34

This podcast is sponsored by MD Hearing.

05:12.66 – 05:14.42

I was reading recently that hearing loss

05:14.42 – 05:16.14

can be directly correlated with dementia.

05:16.14 – 05:18.68

It's 2024, you're still paying thousands of dollars

05:18.68 – 05:20.38

for hearing aids that don't even work right?

05:21.18 – 05:24.30

MD Hearing is an FDA-registered rechargeable hearing aid

05:24.30 – 05:26.72

that costs a fraction of what typical hearing aids cost.

05:27.34 – 05:30.08

MD Hearing's Neo model costs over 90% less

05:30.08 – 05:31.16

than clinic hearing aids.

05:31.62 – 05:33.36

The Neo fits inside your ear,

05:33.46 – 05:34.94

so no one will even know it's there.

05:35.04 – 05:37.70

Plus, MD Hearing just launched the Neo XS,

05:37.90 – 05:39.62

MD Hearing's smallest hearing aid ever.

05:40.32 – 05:42.44

MD Hearing was founded by an ENT surgeon

05:42.44 – 05:45.00

who made it his mission to develop a quality hearing aid

05:45.00 – 05:46.12

that anyone could afford.

05:46.62 – 05:49.40

It's crazy how good the quality is at only $297.

05:49.80 – 05:53.42

Plus, MD Hearing has sold over 1.5 million hearing aids,

05:53.70 – 05:55.84

and they offer a 45-day risk-free trial

05:55.84 – 05:57.62

with a 100% money-back guarantee.

05:58.44 – 06:00.20

Get the hearing you deserve with MD Hearing.

06:03.82 – 06:06.84

Plus, they're adding a free extra charging case

06:09.50 – 06:11.74

of $100 value just for listeners of this show.

06:13.44 – 06:16.58

That's shopmdhearing.com and use our promo code PATRIOT

06:16.58 – 06:19.80

and get their new $297 when you buy a pair offer.

06:20.54 – 06:23.10

Kamala Harris, of course, loser who's done nothing

06:23.10 – 06:26.26

for this country in case, absent destroying it,

06:27.20 – 06:29.64

she attacked him for his patriotism, J.D. Vance.

06:29.70 – 06:29.98

Really?

06:30.60 – 06:32.28

Is Kamala in the Marine Corps in Iraq?

06:32.40 – 06:33.50

I'm not, I don't see that.

06:35.00 – 06:36.60

It was J.D. Vance responding.

06:36.82 – 06:38.68

This is the guy, and this is the guy

06:38.68 – 06:40.32

we're going to battle with on that ticket.

06:40.78 – 06:42.98

Get on the train or get run over, buy it.

06:43.42 – 06:45.54

Don't fall into this leftist messaging trap.

06:45.70 – 06:46.14

Take a look.

06:46.44 – 06:49.44

I saw the other day Kamala Harris questioned

06:49.44 – 06:51.06

my loyalty to this country.

06:51.22 – 06:52.50

That's the word she used, loyalty.

06:54.36 – 06:57.88

And it's an interesting word, simplify, loyalty,

06:58.78 – 07:01.72

because there is no greater sign of this loyalty

07:01.72 – 07:05.08

to this country than what Kamala Harris has done

07:05.08 – 07:05.98

at our southern border.

07:07.30 – 07:09.22

And I'd like to ask the Vice President,

07:10.14 – 07:14.08

what has she done to question my loyalty to this country?

07:14.66 – 07:17.38

I served in the United States Marine Corps.

07:17.66 – 07:21.14

I went to Iraq for this country.

07:30.62 – 07:33.18

I built a business for this country.

07:35.46 – 07:38.26

And my running mate took a bullet for this country.

?Unknown Speaker
07:39.50 – 07:41.88

So my question to Kamala Harris is,

07:41.98 – 07:45.16

what the hell have you done to question our loyalty

07:45.16 – 07:47.06

to the United States of America?

1Speaker 1
07:51.54 – 07:52.50

Amen, brother.

07:54.64 – 07:55.90

Folks, I get it, man.

07:56.78 – 07:57.38

I get it.

07:57.48 – 07:58.06

I understand.

07:58.26 – 08:01.06

You're never going to get a nominee at the top

08:01.06 – 08:02.18

or in the VP spot.

08:02.24 – 08:03.38

You're going to agree with on everything.

08:03.50 – 08:03.98

I understand.

08:05.32 – 08:08.70

It may shock you that I say I have been a Trump supporter

08:08.70 – 08:15.82

and a diehard for, gosh, eight years, six years now.

08:15.86 – 08:16.46

I don't know.

08:16.80 – 08:19.46

I mean, everybody was abandoning me for other candidates.

08:19.66 – 08:20.30

Not this show.

08:21.00 – 08:21.72

Go back and look.

08:22.22 – 08:23.50

Track record speaks for itself.

08:24.66 – 08:25.64

May surprise you, I don't agree

08:25.64 – 08:26.56

with Donald Trump on everything.

08:28.56 – 08:29.36

I don't.

08:30.62 – 08:32.20

But I agree with him on a lot of things.

08:33.16 – 08:34.92

I don't agree with J.D. on everything, too.

08:35.80 – 08:38.32

I'm not a huge fan of Lena Khan at the FTC.

08:40.16 – 08:42.86

But this guy is a patriot, man.

08:45.62 – 08:48.48

And all, all of the right,

08:48.60 – 08:51.46

and by right, I mean wrong people, hate J.D. Vance.

08:51.88 – 08:54.26

And I'm telling you, establishment hacks out there

08:54.26 – 08:55.68

are trying to dismantle this guy.

08:57.04 – 08:58.02

You're dead to me.

08:58.14 – 08:59.56

Don't ask to come on my show.

09:00.26 – 09:02.32

I want nothing to do with you at all.

09:02.82 – 09:04.06

You're as bad as Democrats.

09:04.74 – 09:07.76

You've got the worst candidate we have ever seen

09:07.76 – 09:10.78

without a brain disorder in Kamala Harris,

09:11.08 – 09:13.22

and you wasted the entire weekend

09:13.82 – 09:18.40

on some ridiculous comment about a cat from years ago

09:18.40 – 09:20.58

that has nothing to do with anything.

09:20.90 – 09:24.50

The country is on the brink of collapse economically.

09:24.80 – 09:28.18

Our military being hijacked by DEI lunatics.

09:28.48 – 09:30.90

We've got our infrastructure falling apart.

09:30.90 – 09:34.50

You've got this guy with the most amazing backstory,

09:34.96 – 09:37.50

spent time in our military, and by the way,

09:37.82 – 09:40.74

he rarely brags about it or talks about it,

09:40.80 – 09:42.58

but it's a biographical fact.

09:42.80 – 09:45.24

And we're shitting on this guy all weekend,

09:45.48 – 09:49.96

and you got establishment GOP shit stains out there

09:49.96 – 09:51.26

going, oh man, I don't know,

09:51.38 – 09:53.30

maybe we should swap out the ticket.

09:53.62 – 09:53.92

Really?

09:54.28 – 09:54.88

For who?

09:55.62 – 09:57.20

Who do you want back, Jeb Bush?

09:57.20 – 10:03.00

I am so sick of these people.

10:03.40 – 10:06.22

You have absolutely ruined our party.

10:07.58 – 10:08.52

You've ruined it.

10:10.04 – 10:12.62

This is what we should be focusing on.

10:13.08 – 10:14.90

You wanna see this media mashup?

10:15.26 – 10:16.90

The Democrats, you don't see them

10:16.90 – 10:18.94

attacking Kamala Harris anymore, do you?

10:19.94 – 10:20.98

But they did.

10:21.74 – 10:22.96

But they did.

10:23.82 – 10:26.12

I'm gonna show you this media mashup in a second

10:26.12 – 10:27.18

where they told you how awful they are.

10:27.18 – 10:28.54

How awful Kamala Harris was

10:28.54 – 10:30.24

because they wanted another candidate.

10:30.58 – 10:32.42

Here's the difference between the left

10:32.42 – 10:33.86

and the establishment right.

10:34.00 – 10:35.38

Not you, but the establishment right.

10:35.70 – 10:36.54

They're not phonies.

10:36.82 – 10:38.82

They're not, no, no, they're commies.

10:39.06 – 10:40.18

They're not fake about it.

10:40.82 – 10:42.10

They're straight up communists.

10:42.52 – 10:43.92

There's nothing fake about that.

10:44.40 – 10:46.12

They are actual communists who are like,

10:46.44 – 10:48.22

yeah, I said Kamala sucks a month ago,

10:48.30 – 10:50.30

but now that she's my only path to power,

10:50.42 – 10:51.28

now she's awesome.

?Unknown Speaker
10:52.30 – 10:53.04

That's not fake.

1Speaker 1
10:54.22 – 10:55.34

They're not fake at all.

10:55.34 – 10:57.28

Our establishment guys are fake.

10:57.64 – 10:59.04

Eh, I don't like J.D. Vance.

10:59.50 – 11:01.10

They don't even know J.D. Vance.

11:01.44 – 11:03.50

They're just pissed off their guy didn't get picked.

11:04.32 – 11:05.96

This is what we're running against.

11:06.18 – 11:08.12

But notice how quickly they changed their minds

11:08.12 – 11:10.70

and backed their guy while we're selling out ours.

11:11.40 – 11:12.02

Check this out.

11:12.40 – 11:13.74

There are reports that say that you have

11:13.74 – 11:16.18

the lowest approval rating of any vice president.

11:16.28 – 11:17.70

Well, there are polls that also say

11:17.70 – 11:19.16

I have great approval ratings.

11:20.10 – 11:21.80

Swing voters don't like Harris.

11:22.30 – 11:25.06

How big a drag is Kamala Harris on the ticket?

11:25.06 – 11:26.02

She's a pretty big drag.

11:26.08 – 11:29.14

I think she was arguably Biden's worst political decision.

11:29.30 – 11:29.84

They don't like her.

11:29.92 – 11:31.24

There's lots of reasons they don't like her.

11:31.38 – 11:34.32

Kamala Harris's approval rating is now at 28%,

11:34.32 – 11:37.94

which is an historic low for any modern vice president.

11:38.04 – 11:40.08

We're hearing it from mainstream media.

11:40.38 – 11:42.20

One outlet after another.

11:42.74 – 11:44.32

One leak after another.

11:45.12 – 11:47.74

That Kamala Harris is the worst vice president ever,

11:47.82 – 11:49.70

the worst politician ever.

11:49.80 – 11:51.04

We don't see the vice president.

11:52.10 – 11:53.32

What people are saying to me,

11:53.32 – 11:54.24

and I'm sure they're saying it to you,

11:54.24 – 11:55.44

where's the vice president?

11:55.72 – 11:56.86

Some White House officials are feeling

11:56.86 – 11:59.00

that she came off looking unprepared

11:59.00 – 12:00.92

for inevitable questions about

12:00.92 – 12:02.90

when she might visit the southern border.

12:03.10 – 12:04.04

We've been to the border.

12:04.14 – 12:04.94

You haven't been to the border.

12:06.00 – 12:07.60

And I haven't been to Europe.

12:08.32 – 12:11.60

And I don't understand the point that you're making.

12:11.74 – 12:14.54

The point that Lester Holt was making was obvious

12:14.54 – 12:16.74

to anyone else who was watching this interview,

12:16.94 – 12:19.50

which is that the issues at the border

12:19.50 – 12:22.10

are inextricably linked with the portfolio

12:22.10 – 12:23.12

that she's been given.

12:23.80 – 12:26.40

Notice this will all be memory hold.

12:26.58 – 12:26.88

Why?

12:27.36 – 12:30.52

Because the establishment left is not phony

12:30.52 – 12:32.52

or fake like the establishment right.

12:32.84 – 12:33.44

They're not.

12:34.06 – 12:37.06

The establishment right pretends to be conservative,

12:37.40 – 12:39.78

lovers of liberty and prosperity and on our team.

12:40.14 – 12:42.04

And the minute they can sell us out

12:42.04 – 12:44.44

by attacking a guy like J.D. Vance,

12:44.60 – 12:48.70

they do that because they want to look like

12:48.70 – 12:51.32

the reasonable, sane ones to the people

12:51.32 – 12:52.50

that hate them at the Washington Post.

12:53.40 – 12:54.96

The left's not fake at all.

12:55.34 – 12:57.94

The left are like, we are straight up commies.

12:58.38 – 13:00.42

We will do anything to maintain power.

13:00.74 – 13:02.60

Matter of fact, I'm going to show you we'll do anything.

13:03.08 – 13:05.64

We told you Kamala sucks when we wanted her out

13:05.64 – 13:06.46

for a better candidate.

13:06.88 – 13:08.40

Now that we don't have a better candidate

13:08.40 – 13:10.60

and we're stuck with the worst candidate, Kamala Harris,

13:11.06 – 13:12.88

we're going to do a bunch of puff pieces

13:12.88 – 13:15.28

telling you how wonderful Kamala Harris is.

13:15.36 – 13:17.90

Avita just said it right, but enemies like that, you know.

13:18.56 – 13:20.46

I mean, would Fred say, who are these enemies, right?

13:20.98 – 13:23.66

I mean, these people don't care.

13:23.92 – 13:25.36

They are in this to win.

13:26.22 – 13:29.98

Our guys are in this fighting some faux moral hierarchy.

13:30.12 – 13:30.70

Well, look at me.

13:31.12 – 13:33.12

Call out J.D. Vance, made a comment about a cat.

13:36.84 – 13:38.64

This is why I'm telling you, man,

13:39.26 – 13:42.12

you better vote like you're freaking 10 points behind.
