America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host, Dan Bongino. Folks, I went from feeling feeling okay a few months ago to feeling good, right? You think like, good, good, goodish, goody, good, goodery, to feeling kind of very good, to feeling very good on the good scale to right now, feeling really amazing. I'm hoping. I don't want to get ahead of myself. We're not there yet. It's not even close to over, but I'm feeling really good. Welcome to the Dan Bongino show on election night, the show named after the most handsome man in Stewart with a face for radio. Everybody in the crowd's like, I'm from Stewart. What, are you shitting me? Look at me. I got a better look at me. Folks, this is the night we're here. I can't believe it.

And she says to me, she's like, dad, you know, I'm looking at these numbers and what are those? And I was explaining to her what the numbers mean. Less than 1% of the vote and the vote counter and stuff like that. And I felt like we're all part of something special. I want to thank everyone for coming out to Oak and Ember.

So, Ms. Evita Duffy, host of the now exploding Early Edition with Evita Duffy. You are one of the rising stars in the podcast space. I like to think I got a good eye for talent. I knew right away you were going to be a rock star. And you are. You're a little bit more apprehensive. You told me right before we started you're feeling okay, but maybe not. What are you on? The good. Very good. Excellent. Okay. Bad scale.
- [05:25]
Evita Duffy
I'm on the. I don't know to slightly bad. And the. But the good news about when I say that is I'm always wrong about my predictions. So if I'm feeling bad, maybe that means you guys should feel good. I will say something that I'm worried about because I'm from Wisconsin. I've been following what's happening in Wisconsin. Lara Trump tweeted just a while ago ago that there's been problems in Milwaukee and they're having to recount and extending.
- [05:48]
Mike Benz
The count period, 30,000 ballots.
- [05:51]
Evita Duffy
Milwaukee is an interesting one because last year in Milwaukee. I'm sorry, last cycle in 2020, somehow Joe Biden outperformed Obama in Milwaukee. Very fishy. So it's an interesting one to watch. It's going to be really key for Wisconsin.
- [06:06]
Mike Benz
Yeah, I saw that, Jim. I tend to look at that a little differently. Evita's a little worried about Wisconsin. I'm looking at the, the, the betting data and the betting data is moose. I mean, people's own money. They got skin in the game. Folks in the chat, how are you feeling about Milwaukee? Folks in folks in the chat who are from Wisconsin, please post away because you're on the ground like you know better than anyone. I feel pretty good because the money's moving in that direction. What are you seeing? I think you're right on that as well. I don't, I'm not too worried about Wisconsin yet. And I'm thinking just we have to wait and see what's on the east coast and to see the lengths by which Trump is either the gaps in which he is either doing well or not doing well. For example, right now from Eric Daughtry here in Florida, Trump is plus nine in Florida. And that's not even counting the panhandle or the election. Okay, let me give someone else on that, folks, who's from Florida who voted for Kamala Harris. It's a huge Kamala Harris crowd here tonight. There's absolutely zero voters whatsoever. Unsurprising, it's probably not the best sample size for a Kamala Harris crowd. The Dan Bongino show. But I live here. And folks, just so you understand, the Florida breakdown, the panhandle out in western Florida in a different time zone, that is die hard Republican. That's the Matt Gaetz area. I mean, that's an area Republicans will win congressional seats by 19 points. So what Jim's getting at is if electorate is right now, you know, Republican plus, what is Trump plus nine. And we don't even have the panhandle in. That does not bode well for Kamala Harris's camp in Florida. I'm hearing from friends of mine that Kamala's campaign was ready to scrap Florida two weeks ago. So I don't think that's like a big mystery to anyone. One big update, folks. They did already, unfortunately, a little bit of bad news. They did call the North Carolina governor's race and it did not work out in our favor with Mark Robinson campaign ran into a little bit of trouble. I like Mark. I'll always like Mark. I think he was a great lieutenant governor. I think he does have a future in politics. But that race, you know, we had him on the show quite a bit. I know we both liked him. But that, that one they called pretty early. Yeah, that's really a shame. I mean, bad stuff came out. I'm not sure what to make of any of the news that came out regarding that. But you know, when something like that happens in a race and especially that late, it's really kind of hard to come back from another race. That in Florida, by the way, that they had either tight or losing was Annapolina Luna. She is up 10. If Annapolina Luna is up by 10, folks, then it's hey, guy, is that thing on the, is that the who's, who is that the New York Times thing on the bottom? Oh, that's Kelsey. Okay, so that's Kelsey. That's actually one of our sponsors. But Kelsey's where people put their own money on the election, folks. It has Donald Trump now. It's 62%. So if you're, if you're at. That's their money. That's not like some bullshit poll thing. You know, my. Here's where's what I think. Here's how I think the night's going to play out if these trend lines continue. If Florida, I think we can pretty much wrap up Florida, you know, soon. But Georgia and North Carolina, if we can get numbers from them and it comes in heavy for us, for Pennsylvania, you know, it could be a pretty early night.
- [09:32]
Evita Duffy
I hope that's the case. And wouldn't it be a great sign to the, to the country that we're not going to, I mean, the media, the permanent state, everybody has been up against, up against Trump. He's been persecuted this entire time. To send a message to the American people that this is going to be a blowout and that we're not going to reward you for your bad behavior would be huge, a huge message.
- [09:54]
Mike Benz
I think their campaign strategy was sharp. Jim, you and I were talking about this on the radio the other day, folks. I think one thing that went a little bit unnoticed by a lot of folks in the media. And candidly, I don't think the Trump team wanted to advertise it because they didn't want it to appear. I think that they were abandoning other states, which I'm not suggesting they were doing. But one of the really smart things they did is they focused a lot of time on the east coast in Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina. And the simple reason is they don't want to go through again what they went through last time, where they were dragging this thing out till 2 o'clock in the morning. You got all these data dumps and then all of a sudden what happened? It turned the. And we never got the tide back. So if we can blow this thing out in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia and blow it out early on the east coast again, that's a big if. Nothing's over again, don't pop any champagne bottles until this thing is called. However, if those numbers get racked up pretty high, you can have a really early night because there's simply no math. If he loses Pennsylvania, if she loses Pennsylvania and we win, there's simply no math for her. There's no electoral path for her to win.
- [11:05]
Evita Duffy
No. And I am. I'm optimistic talking to you about this. But I'm looking at this. The numbers coming in Michigan, Wisconsin, the blue wall, they tend to all go together. And so until I see those, I'm just holding back.
- [11:24]
Mike Benz
I love it. Evita's gonna be like the voice of reason for us tonight, folks. I can say no. No, that's good. That's good. You kind of temper my excitement. Hey, Justin, grab Julie. See, she wants to come on and see if she wants to come on for us, too. So South Carolina. Yeah, Julie. Yeah. South Carolina called for Trump. That's probably not a, you know, a big mystery. We've also had the West Virginia Senate race. Jim justice, that's been called. So we're at 50 now. So if we win the presidency tonight, it's already given the vote. You know, the vice president has. As president of the Senate. The Senate would already be ours if we won tonight. Here's another one from Kalshi. Trump has a 79% chance to win Georgia on Kalshi. Folks, this is people's own money, okay? So if, you know, again, if you're putting your money down on a race, you got it. You probably know something and have a pretty good feel for what's going on. So North Carolina, right now, here's the problem, too, with these races. And this is why I don't want anyone to get too excited about anything too early. You don't know what specific area of the state is being called. So if you're in, say, I'll give you an easy example. New York. If you put the northern part of New York in first, gonna look like Trump is romping in New York. It's because you haven't factored in New York City. So you gotta be careful. When you have, like, less than, say, 50% of the vote in, you know, you don't really know where that vote is coming from. So it's the kind of thing, like, a little bit of caution on that tonight. So, yeah, South Carolina looks like that's gonna be up.
- [12:55]
Evita Duffy
I say something about Florida. You know, the Kamala campaign has been running so much on identity, identity politics this entire time. It's women, it's Hispanics, it's blacks. If he does really well in Florida, I know the Trump campaign thought that they were gonna get Florida anyways, but if he does really, really well, I think that's a sign that the identity politics aren't gonna work, especially with Hispanics. For the end of this campaign, they were running on this Garbage line, Right. That Trump thinks all Hispanics are garbage because some comedian made a joke. And if he really does well in Florida, I think it's a sign that the identity politics doesn't have the sway that it did in years past. And it's not gonna work for her.
- [13:28]
Mike Benz
I was following an account in Florida, a friend who's knee deep in Florida politics. He's been around forever. Folks, Florida is an apocalyptic bloodbath for Kamala Harris. After this election, I don't even think it'll be officially a swing state anymore. I'm not telling you they had any expectations of Florida, but I think your point about identity politics is right. Matter of fact, Jim was showing me some. Listen, folks, exit polls. Oh, yeah, my geese giving me a little sign here. You're never going to believe the auction thing. I'll tell you all in a second. All you folks in the chat, if you want to bid on the auction for the Trump baseball bongino.com auction. But the Georgia exit polls, the Georgia exit polls had the black vote. Was it black men? Yes. At 25%. Their exits. So, like, everybody kind of chill for a minute. But yeah, bring Julianne. Just bring her up. Yeah, don't worry about, like, the set. There's no formality here. Grab a seat. If that number holds black men in Georgia and that number is even remotely close to accurate, then she's gonna have a really bad night. Hey, look at that. Look who just walked on the set.
- [14:34]
Julie Kelly
How did I get here?
- [14:35]
Mike Benz
Julie? Well, we wouldn't be an election night without you.
- [14:39]
Savannah Hernandez
We are.
- [14:39]
Mike Benz
It's so nice to have you here. Letting the booze is free. And I told them, give Julie all the good stuff. Everybody, give Julie Kelly a big welcome. Julie, nobody has done more to expose the deep state shenanigans than you. Your reporting at Substack has been incredible, but you're a really good journalist as well. Your general feel for how we stand right now, looking at what you're seeing coming in these numbers, we got some exits, which I'm kind of skeptical on. Florida looks like a bloodbath for her.
- [15:11]
Julie Kelly
So there was one county in Florida, Osella county, just north of here, Osceola. I'm sorry, I'm not from here. And that was a county that Joe Biden won by 12 percentage points in 2020. And as you know, it's almost 60% Hispanic, 1/3 Puerto Rican. And right now, with 85% of the vote total counted, it's tied. So what that kind of demonstrates is perhaps where the Hispanic vote is going to go in some of these other key states to have that big of a swing in Donald Trump's favor. Of course, given all of the bad publicity that we've seen in the last few weeks, they really were counting on that to strip away some of the Hispanic vote. And in this particular county, it looks like. Like that didn't happen.
- [15:59]
Evita Duffy
Yeah, yeah, Julie, I was gonna. I've been seeing a lot of discourse ahead of this election, Even people in our own camp who are saying, I'm not gonna vote for Trump. I'm not interested. Oh, am I on, like, a major speaker?
- [16:12]
Julie Kelly
Yeah.
- [16:13]
Mike Benz
Yeah, you would.
- [16:14]
Evita Duffy
Okay. And I just thought, you know, even if you don't think Trump is gonna do an amazing job, if you've lost, if you've lost hope, why wouldn't you think about at least the January Sixers? Cause I'm thinking about your reporting the holds. And Trump is somebody who said, I'm going to pardon them all. What? And I hate to think this way, but what would be the future for.
- [16:32]
Julie Kelly
Them if Kamala wins for the J6ers? Is that. Yes. I mean, I tweeted today. They were. My first thought this morning really, is. I hear from them all the time. They're really hopeful that Trump wins. I mean, he has overwhelming Support by the January 6th community and what it will mean for them and their families to at least have the opportunity to participate, pursue a pardon or to have their case dismissed by a Donald Trump doj. The doj.
- [17:00]
Mike Benz
Or just to have honest and honest, like, look at it. I mean, the obstruction of justice nonsense. And you've been pointing out all these judges that still keep trying to push them. Was it 1512 that shenanigans?
- [17:11]
Julie Kelly
12. Correct. But Dan and Evita, the DOJ, arrested a man in Georgia today. Now think about that. A key swing state where they are still trying to weaponize the events of January 6th for political purposes. So we have over 1500 J6 defendants. They're still arresting people, charging people with even these bogus counts. Not 1512 C2, but others that they're making up. And this will continue under a Harris Walls Department of Justice. And these people really deserve relief. They have been regardless of. You know, there are some who perhaps their cases need to be looked at a little more closely. But the overwhelming number who were charged and convicted of misdemeanors, made up misdemeanors that have never been applied at a federal level this way. They deserve relief. And to have the opportunity to get their reputations, their family and their lives.
- [18:07]
Mike Benz
Back together, we have Mike Benz here, who I know you know, Mike's running around. We're going to have Mike Benz. He's like the deep state specialist. What's getting a little, like, reverb on that? Do you hear that on the mic? Okay, push it out a little bit because it's reverbing a little bit back through this thing. I'm a little worried if. And it's a big if. I don't want to get too excited. But if we were to win this thing, I'm a little concerned about some potential November to January election violence. And the reason I say that is if you read that infamous, was it Time or Newsweek article? Newsweek, Newsweek, where they talk about the cabal. They mentioned like they had the shock troops ready to go and they had to tell them to stand down. There's no reason to believe they don't have the same, you know, street chaos agents out there right now.
- [18:55]
Julie Kelly
Well, they do. And we see that Washington, D.C. has already boarded up because, you know, in preparation of a Trump win, we saw chaos in the streets. After 2016, you had riots everywhere from Oakland to Portland, Miami. They were shutting down streets. They were assaulting police officers. So we know that that is going to happen again. Dan, I think they are going to accelerate this law fair against Donald Trump till the last minute. For example, the case in Washington against Donald Trump, Jack Smith's prosecution of him, Judge Chutkan is chomping at the bit to continue that case and do as much damage as they possibly can to him, to his reputation and bolster the insurrection act that we've heard Jamie Raskin and others want to try to use to keep Donald Trump from taking office.
- [19:42]
Mike Benz
Hey, guys. Hey, Mike. How you doing? Good to see you, buddy. Just do me a favor, just eat the mic because there's a lot of background noise. I know, folks, we got, you know, it's a live crowd here on election night. So we'll try to eat the mic and if it doesn't work, well, I don't know, maybe we'll try a different kind of setup. But I hope you all can hear. Is there too much tell me in the chat? Because I'm reading everything you're saying. So the. Mike, we were just talking. It's perfect time for you to come in. There's no one who understands the deep state better than you, the possibility, because they've done it before. That infamous Newsweek article we were talking about, about the cabal, that they have the shock troops ready to go for violence in the street if this turns out in our favor tonight, it has me really concerned. I know it's the kind of thing you study. You know better than anyone. Are you worried about that? Or. Let me give you a scenario. Say, knock on wood, it's a blowout tonight and there's really no legitimate challenge. Do you see them just going, all right, screw it, we're done with him his last time he's going to run? Or are they just not going to let this guy swear in?
- [20:42]
Dan Bongino
There's a chance that they say screw it. But my concern is the same one that you identified, which is that they have the capacity to do something very monstrous. And you mentioned the Time magazine article. In the Time magazine article, there was a secret agreement that Molly Ball spelled out in which the head, the ACLU and the Chamber of Commerce had an agreement to stand down the shutdown DC protests that they that were prepared in case Trump had won the Electoral College on election night 2020. And the AFL CIO is the, is the largest union in the country. Not only is it the largest union in the country, but it is a very, very active history with the intelligence state. When the CIA or the US State Department wants to orchestrate rent a riots abroad in France, during the Cold War, in Italy, in Germany, in Latin America, the AFL CIO's branch will frequently be the one summoned because these are trade, these are rough and tumble types. They're workers. They frequently take to the streets for boycotts and protests anyway. And so they singled out an individual named David Podhorzer in the Time magazine article.
- [21:49]
Mike Benz
Yeah, I saw you tweeting about that today.
- [21:51]
Dan Bongino
Right. And they basically called him effectively the architect of this plan in case Trump had won the Electoral College, to deploy mass protests to create a sort of BLM style pro democracy movement to overthrow the democratically elected government in its infancy. And what's interesting is David Podhorser has been making the rounds at State Democracy Defenders Action, which is Norm Eisen's legal outfit, which has teamed up with Jamie Raskin, the same guy who identified that if Trump wins on election night, they have an asap.
- [22:24]
Mike Benz
He's trying to dial that back now, which is bullshit because we got it on audio and video. No, it's Raskin's trying to pretend that he's not going to obstruct this thing.
- [22:33]
Dan Bongino
He's trying to hedge and he's using language such as saying, of course we'll certify it if it's a free and fair election. But what they're going to argue is that it was not free and fair because an insurrectionist was running it because of foreign interference from Russia. They'll argue voter suppression, for example, if Trump wins on election here tonight and on election night, they'll argue that even though the official vote tally was, you know, had Trump winning Pennsylvania or Wisconsin by a certain margin, that there was certain voter suppression because of his rhetoric or because of, you know, certain incidents in the past which may have a disparate impact on certain groups from voting. And so they have all sorts of predicates that they can wheel out. And then the only question is, are they going to be able to get away with it? And this is often the function of these street protests is to say, well, the people are showing that it's illegal. The people are doing this giant demonstration about how unfair the elections were that they were not free and fair. And then the media will lionize those groups and say that they really represent the democratic force of the people. And so, so that is something that will absolutely be playing out over the course of the next two months, which is about the period it takes to organize these things when we do them abroad.
- [23:43]
Evita Duffy
So, but how exactly would it go down? Would the military come in and say, we're installing Kamala Harris, how could it be enforced? I get that the media would back it. You have the protests on the ground, but how would it actually take place? How would we actually see an unlawful transition of Kamala being elected?
- [24:00]
Dan Bongino
Primarily in this case? I think the role of the media would be to quash any sort of conservative protests against the last minute election theft through a legal process, not to sort of, because currently Kamala Harris occupies the White House. They don't need to depose someone from power. They simply need to prevent a new outside entrant with no access to the military from doing it. So what you're starting to see is they declared January 6, 2025, election certification day as this national security emergency event. So they already have the military in place, you know, for that, they've already started boarding up buildings in D.C. if folks have seen the clips of that today in anticipation of unrest if Trump wins. And so they don't want to deploy the street muscle while Biden Harris is still in office, because that destabilizes the country of the person who's, who's running it. So the issue is, I think you're going to start, if this does pop off, if you see these military, if you see these, if Trump wins tonight and you see street muscle deployed, if you see all these climate groups and sort of racial justice groups and antifa groups all come together. I think you'll start to see a military presence to effectively protect them from any sort of counter protesters and as a sort of presence to ward off the hypothetical threat of Trump people complaining about their vote being stolen.
- [25:18]
Mike Benz
So I didn't get your general, general thoughts on where we are for the election because you're so good on the deep state. I mean, my listeners love you. Every time I have you on the show, they're like, give us more, give us more. So I send them over to your ex account, Mike Ben Cyber, where Mike does his own content. And you should check that out. Julie has a substack. Please check that out. Support these, you know, these, these great investigators. But your thoughts that we just got this. So Trump now apparently Osceola county, which you just mentioned, which Biden won by, by 14. Trump now leads in, in Florida. Trump, he's. I just got this. Trump is now on the way to flip a 60% largely black county, Randolph County, Georgia. If these numbers start to hold as a pattern, Julia, I'll go to you. I mean, listen, again, I don't want to get ahead of myself. We've already been through this, this shit before. And Hillary got ahead of herself in 2016. Everybody was crying at the end of the night, but this can't be good. I mean, where's she going to find a vote? Votes. Young voters? No. Black voters? No. I mean, election day? No. Early vote? No. I mean, she's running out of options.
- [26:19]
Julie Kelly
Well, they're also in the Georgia CNN exit poll. The gender gap that they were counting on basically is double men versus women for Trump than women versus men for Kamala Harris. It's in single digits. It's, I think, 12% for men for Trump and about 6 or 7. That is not the gender gap that they were looking for in Georgia. But the issue with what we're seeing, some of these counties starting to flip or get really tight, where they weren't in 2020 is it reflects some of the late polling that we saw and what we've heard anecdotally about these minority voters, especially black men. Now, we've heard that before, right? We've been burned before, but this time it sounded more realistic. And that is why the Harris campaign has to be very nervous seeing these early. I know they're exit polls. I know they're not super scientific. They're not tested out.
- [27:12]
Mike Benz
But you'd rather be ahead of them than behind.
- [27:14]
Julie Kelly
Exactly.
- [27:15]
Mike Benz
I mean, it's only data. I mean, you could Dismiss it or not. But I don't want the data going against me. I'm sorry, I just want one more question I want to ask you Mike and then please jump in. Yeah, no, so I don't know how you know so much about the deep state, but I, I'll watch your video. Sometimes I'm like, damn, this guy's good. Like, I mean I wrote three books and you're, you throw these things out there, you know, National Endowment for the Democracy and all this stuff. You see cars just quickly. I had to take a quick break, get to some spots and we'll get to Evita and some more questions for you all. Do you say Trump gets in again with a body of four years behind him? He obviously knows where the bodies are buried. This time it's not going to be that learning curve. Do you sense deep staters, mass resignations or do you sense them digging in and we get like, like a thousand Alexander Vindman's.

Yeah, absolutely. Digging in. One of the words that there, that the farm.
- [28:06]
Mike Benz
I didn't want to hear you say that, by the way. I'm horrified you said that, but you had tell us the truth.
- [28:10]
Dan Bongino
Well, that doesn't mean game over. It means game on. Right? You have, this is what they did the first time and they've already complained about the so called guardrails, the Democratic guardrails, the fact that Trump is considerably wiser now than he was when he got in. If folks are. Remember the famous quote by James Comey when he was asked after he set up Flynn? You know that that famous quote about is our job here to set him up is to get him to lie or to get him fired, you know, basically to entrap him or to achieve a political victory of eliminating the national security advisor. And Comey said we wouldn't have done that to Hillary Clinton because we couldn't have gotten away with it. But the Trump administration was so green. It was all people, people who are interested in making this country great again. They had, they had less experience in statecraft and dealing with the intelligence services which are supposed to be foreign facing. So they really didn't know a lot of the, a lot of the tricks, a lot of the banana peels you can slip on while you're, you know, running.
- [29:07]
Mike Benz
But even some of the savvy ones got caught, like Mike Flynn, who's a great guy, but he's a patriot. He assumed the FBI was on our side. He's like, yeah boys, come on over.

So thanks, Steve. I'm alive because of Steve. Thank you, Steve Adler. There you go. For saving Dan Margino's life. He's a good man. Please avoid.
- [32:00]
Evita Duffy
Well, Mike, I wanted to ask you about the big tech angle of all of this, because they had an advantage in 2020 in that everybody was regime controlled. And suddenly now you have the wild card of Twitter, and even now, Rumble, right? It's grown a ton. So how does that play into the necessity of the Kamala team having a narrative control if what you laid out actually is going to take place?
- [32:25]
Dan Bongino
No, that's exactly right. Narrative control is an essential prerequisite of being able to pull off these kind of bottom up toppling of democratic governments. It's actually something the State Department and the intelligence services laser focus in on. It's why they flood the zone with USAID funded media, or State Department media, or these independent media that are working with intelligence services, and why they've promoted censorship of the counter story and why they worked so hard to censor the 2020 election and used intelligence services effectively to do it. But it would be one thing if it was just X and just Rumble, but the whole big tech infrastructure is actually starting to turn against them. So Mark Zuckerberg, obviously, just a few months ago, came out and told Jim Jordan that it was the Biden administration's fault, but he had been having those misgivings for a very long time. The Facebook files show that even with the senior management, he didn't want to do the censorship of COVID It seems in retrospect, given the direction he skated to that much of the 2020 censorship. Censorship was not something he was comfortable with. We know in 2019, he was giving speeches in San Jose saying he thought censorship had gone too far. But then he got hit with a $60 billion ad boycott and then quickly folded. But I think he's. He's starting to have had enough on that. And I think part of that is Facebook feels betrayed by the Biden State Department, who essentially allowed Europe to regulate them through the Digital Markets act and Digital Services Act. Tim Cook from Apple just placed a call to Trump a few weeks ago saying that he felt betrayed by the Biden administration not fighting for Apple with a $15 billion fine from the EU. Google has. Sundar Pichai has come up, has basically cozied up to Trump in the past months because the Justice Department of the Biden Harris administration is now trying to break up Google. And in fact, when Ben Shapiro and Tucker Carlson and others were hit by this New York Times Media Matters boycott piece to try to get them removed from the YouTube Ad Partners program, YouTube issued a statement saying, we are not deplatforming these people. We are not demonetizing them. We believe in free speech during election season. And so every single one of the social media platforms right now, 400,000 until they're further destabilized. And we'll wait to see what the Justice Department does. Is holding strong right now on free speech.
- [34:40]
Evita Duffy
That's why I feel bad when anybody criticizes Big Tech. I'm like, actually, it's not really Big Tech's fault. That's kind of the federal government. All their bad behavior in 2020 and beyond during this Biden administration has been censorship directed by the federal government and kind of in duress by the social media companies.
- [34:56]
Dan Bongino
Very deliberate duress.
- [34:57]
Evita Duffy
Yeah.
- [34:57]
Dan Bongino
That much of what the government, whole of society model is about is about changing the economics of the private news distribution, news production economy so that the news entities and the social media companies are incentivized to promote the government line. This is exactly what they did in social media. But now, you know, they've done so much coercion and the possibility of having a neutral president who is not cramming down on them on the regulatory side and who, when he had a chance to actually come down on them, did not, I think is basically a parachute for these companies to get back to normal.
- [35:30]
Mike Benz
Yeah, Jim, that's updated.
- [35:32]
Evita Duffy
I. I just saw on my phone, Julie and Mike, that early results suggest Amendment four will fail. So here in Florida, Amendment four is the pro life.
- [35:42]
Mike Benz
It's the baby.
- [35:43]
Evita Duffy
So Amendment four would mean that if it had succeeded, we would have had protection for life.
- [35:49]
Mike Benz
States called for Trump. Missouri, Tennessee, no surprise there. Florida, folks. I'm telling you, Florida was a bloodbath for them. I mean, the Kamala Harris campaign was a disaster here. Oklahoma, no surprise. Alabama, Mississippi, no big surprises yet. Julie, we're going to go to Crowder in a minute. But I just wanted to ask you a question. You're another you and Mike with the deep state stuff. And Mike, if you want to chime in quickly, too, the Trump team was super smart this time. They didn't use the GAO transition team, which screwed them over last time. They absolutely knew they were going to get effed on that one. And they said no more briefings because you know what's going to happen. We're going to, you're going to briefly and you're going to use it as an interrogation and you're going to accuse us of leaking. Very, very smart move, Julie.
- [36:29]
Julie Kelly
It absolutely is. Because now we know. I mean, these are the same people, Lisa Monaco, Avril Haynes, who's the director of National Intelligence. These are the same people who were there in 2016. They're definitely going to set Trump up. He's already been president. He's going to have a solid team. He doesn't need to be, you know, lured in by Avril Haynes or Lisa Monaco or anyone at DHS or any of these agencies under the ruse of transition to create the same sort of thing that we saw during the transition period.
- [37:01]
Mike Benz
I think it's because they're listening to people like you guys who are now warning them that, hey, man, this is like, these are not, I'm sorry, but a lot of these people are not home team. But Mike, on that GAO thing, that was smart, wasn't it?
- [37:12]
Dan Bongino
Yeah, no, it was. And to what you guys were talking about, you know, there's really no intelligence lost in the failure to have some of these briefings. The fact is they have suffered so much reputational damage, the analyst wings of the CIA and FBI, because of how many hoaxes they have pushed time and time again. You don't know if the intelligence that is coming into the incoming administration is designed to influence policy rather than designed to actually educate the President. And so there are many other ways to get an approximate value that are shy of setting yourself up for some sort of, you know, criminal investigation on the basis of it.
- [37:49]
Mike Benz
So glad to have you guys on the panel. All right, you guys ready? Is this going to be the biggest crossover in the history.
- [37:58]
Julie Kelly
Oh, no, that wasn't Us.
- [38:01]
Mike Benz
Did they kill our.
- [38:02]
Steve Crowder
It was going to, but then they just killed their own audio. We killed.
- [38:05]
Mike Benz
Yeah, we killed the audio.
- [38:06]
Steve Crowder
Let the record. We are, we are three. And oh, on technical issues on the call, we have had it.
- [38:10]
Dan Bongino
Right, Dan?
- [38:12]
Steve Crowder
We can. You can hear us, but now we can't hear you. Can you say something, bro?
- [38:15]
Mike Benz
Brother, I. I can hear you. I. I got a little double feed to you. Okay, but I got a little double feed. Oh, we got it. We did it. I feel like Steve, I feel like we should have Dora the Explorer and boots in here. We did it. We did. We did it. Hey, man, you have a monster stream tonight. Blowing it up for Rumble as always. I think we're taking over the interwebs. You know, I asked you the other day, man, our moments like this, like, I, I rather be. I'd rather be us than old school cable news on nights like this. I mean, I know they have that legacy thing, but it's kind of clear that this is the future. And that's kind of a dying brand, isn't it?
- [38:52]
Steve Crowder
Well, yes, and if you could line up all the peckers in the world, it still wouldn't be enough for them to eat. I hope that that doesn't offend people on your stream, but I will say, quite a visual being my ninth. Being my ninth favorite guinea. And you know, I, I prune that list.
- [39:06]
Mike Benz
You tell me that every time.
- [39:07]
Steve Crowder
Share it with you.
- [39:08]
Mike Benz
Turn me up a little bit.
- [39:11]
Steve Crowder
We, you know, we actually were. The people watching our stream know we were subject to DDoS attacks for the election integrity map that people can follow right now where we've made some, some calls to states before even CNN or those folks have. It's going to get wild and woolly with the swing states, but we're not relying on them at all. And like I said, we'll make that available to you. I also wanted to. Hey, by the way, Jacked Up Fitness people can go to.
- [39:33]
Mike Benz
I lost his audience. Wait, hold on. Don't panic. It's just like they'll fix it in a second. But I heard you say jacked up. Okay, I got you back. Sorry, go ahead.
- [39:44]
Steve Crowder
All right. No, I was saying that I. We just brought them on as a sponsor last minute and I heard that.
- [39:48]
Mike Benz
You'Ve been, you know, Don from Jacked Up Fitness is here. Hey, Don. Don. So Steve Crowder just gave you a big shout out. The owner of the company is legit here, so. So Jacked Up Fitness Steve Crowder, you know, he works out. So Don's right here. Stevie's, like, right in front of us. Steve just said that. You. You what? You doing the Steven Crowder show now? Which is good, because Steve, folks, there's Don right there. Steve. Steve. Steve is not a fatty like Steve. You can't bring on fatties for a company like that. Correct. You can't be like, go use Jacked Up Fitness. The product is great, and you're dropping, like, four or five hundred beans on the scale. You can't do that. It just doesn't work.
- [40:30]
Steve Crowder
I lost eight pounds in 12 hours, though, because the stomach flew from hell. I have a. I have a bucket right next to me.
- [40:35]
Mike Benz
Yes.
- [40:36]
Steve Crowder
Tonight.
- [40:36]
Dan Bongino
Right.
- [40:37]
Mike Benz
He lost eight pounds with your equipment there, Steve. Don. Don says, by the way, Jack. Hey, Steve. He says he's got. I love the machine personally, but Don says he's got a super duper machine coming out now. I said, bro, I want an upgrade. You send that freaking machine over my house staff, meanwhile, the things like £8,000, I'm like, send that thing over to my crib, brother.
- [40:57]
Steve Crowder
Yes, well, we'll make sure. And I know. And by the way, I. I didn't realize this. Everyone was horrified. Just for people who know, because we just called some states so we can talk shop. When you came in, I always, you know, I always speak when I shouldn't. And you came in and I knew that you had. Had, you know, obviously cancer and beaten it. And I didn't remember, but my producer said, I can't believe the first thing you said to Dan was, wow, cancer looks good on you. I was like, I don't remember saying that.
- [41:17]
Mike Benz
That was cool, bro. That. What do you think? I'm like Captain Sensitivity? Do I. Do I look like the kind of guy who gives a shit? This is why we get along so well. There is almost nothing you could say that would offend me, brother, at all. I know where your heart is. You're a good dude. So wait, let's talk some shop here, though. You got a whole team back there. Give me your overall kind of. I hate the bird's eye view, whatever, but give me the macro. I'm feeling pretty freaking amazing right now. But I don't want to pop any champagne corks yet. The numbers look terrible for Kamala Harris. What's your team telling you?
- [41:49]
Steve Crowder
So we just got some numbers here that actually are pretty interesting as far as Florida. Now, here's the thing. To a lot of young people watching right now, they don't realize that we used to stay up late, right, Just to hear the results from Florida. So people are taking for granted that Florida is not really a swing state. But we have the numbers. I think Gerald has them in front of me. There was an 18 point swing. Was it Miami Dade or was it Palm Beach? So Gerald will come in real quick.
- [42:09]
Mike Benz
Miami Dade 2020. Biden won that 7.3. Trump is leading by 11 right now. These numbers can change. They can change right now.
- [42:15]
Steve Crowder
Right.
- [42:16]
Mike Benz
Broward Biden won by 29 points.
- [42:18]
Adam Gillette
Harris is only up by 20.
- [42:20]
Steve Crowder
Palm Beach, Kamala is up 0.7.
- [42:22]
Mike Benz
Biden won that by 12.
- [42:24]
Steve Crowder
These numbers are massive shifts, massive shifts in those counties. And I think a big reason for it. You know, in Florida, as you look, there's a huge percentage of Jewish Americans obviously voting and the Hispanic Americans. And Donald Trump doesn't need to win those demographics. He just needs to peel off enough people, which is what I think we're seeing. And so we're going to have our analysts there sort of layover, you know, sort of put these over. Pennsylvania with the biggest obviously of the swing states. Jewish voting election base, I believe it's 800,000. So if we're seeing that, you know, it could be an actually a pretty early night again. We don't want to count any chickens before they hatch. Is eggs before they hatch. Chickens. Chickens before they hatch. But the numbers are not looking good for Kamala. Of course, the caveat there is outright theft. We know that.
- [43:05]
Mike Benz
Yeah. But I think that's good. You have Gerald there. We love Gerald. Gerald's like a big wine guy. He sent me a bottle. And usually when people say they're going to send you a bottle of wine, Steve, they send you some cheapo or some. Not Gerald. Gerald sent me like the high end. I almost felt bad. I felt like sending him a check. I was like, damn, bro, you know your wine. So we love Gerald, but it makes the Trump strategy. I mentioned this earlier in the show. I'd love to get your thoughts on it. Sound like it's pretty genius. You can see at the end, if you notice, all the visits they made, they were not abandoning the west Coast. Arizona, they went out there, but they focused heavily on Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia because of what you just said. They're terrible. Terrified of another late night ballot drop this thing, Dragon two in the morning. And they know if they run up the score on the east coast that there's simply no freaking math. If he wins pa, North Carolina and Georgia, there's simply no math for her to win. I thought the strategy was genius. Yeah.
- [43:56]
Steve Crowder
The only problem is Pennsylvania of course, you're saying, oh, it might take them, what is it, four years to count the votes the next election. But it may not matter if we're looking at the percentages again. We have a team here. We. And look at the margins. Even if Donald Trump doesn't win, let's say Virginia or New Hampshire. But if it's within, let's say New Hampshire, two points, if it's within five points in Virginia, that gives you some pretty good ideas, some indicators as far as momentum and these states can be called early. So we have some people here who are looking at some numbers that may often be overlooked. I think that's why we have the biggest stream right now in the world because they really are working hard back there to provide some of this data. And, you know, CNN is not having a good night tonight. We know, look, this could go either way, but I think people have good reason to feel pretty confident. It doesn't change that, hey, if you were out there in the west coast, but the polls have not, have not closed, not that I'm going to change anyone's mind right now. Make sure you vote. If you're somewhere where the polling stations weren't working and they extended voting hours, make sure you get everyone there who could have possibly missed voting. But yeah, there are a lot of good indicators that we see tonight and we just talked about, too, I don't know, but Rumble Premium, we just launched tonight where Mug Club is Rumble premium. Donald Trump Jr. Is going to be on there and they're adding content where Mug Club is now officially Rumble Premium. It's all one umbrella. And I know that you obviously have been on Rumble for a very long time. You're there.
- [45:08]
Mike Benz
Yeah, I know a little bit about the company.
- [45:09]
Steve Crowder
You bet on them when no one was.
- [45:11]
Mike Benz
Yeah, yeah, I heard about I love Rumble. I met that guy Chris once. You know him? I think he runs a company or something. I, we had coffee once or twice. No, I love Rumble. We are really ecstatic to have you on Rumble Premium. I mean, you are one of the biggest live streamers in the world, not just the United States. And as I said, Steve, you know, it is the future. It's unquestionably the future. Let me get your opinion on some of these. Western West. Let's move out west a little bit. You know, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona. What's your team telling you? Evita Duffy's next to me. She knows Wisconsin politics well. Her dad was a congressman there for a long time. Evita's a little concerned about Wisconsin. I Don't. I'm not knee deep in Wisconsin politics, but what are you thinking?
- [45:52]
Steve Crowder
Well, the best part about Wisconsin is that it has 49 of the drunkest counties out of the top 50. So that's always fun to have a good time. I have said since the beginning right of this election that I think Wisconsin is more likely than Michigan. Being someone who has relatives in both Wisconsin and Michigan, having spent a good portion of my life in Michigan just because of the corruption, you know, Michigan, you know, one thing people don't like to acknowledge, McCarthy was right when he talked about communists. When he talked about. About spies, he was right about them infiltrating institutions, namely academia, Hollywood, but also the unions in the United States. And that's why when you look at, for example, the Teamsters, when you look at the actual percentage of the members of the union who were overwhelmingly supporting Donald Trump, what happens is you have union leadership just sit it out because they are not looking to do the will of their actual members.
- [46:38]
Mike Benz
Right.
- [46:38]
Steve Crowder
It's really about those in charge. As far as Wisconsin, I think that Wisconsin is more inherently concerned conservative than Michigan outside of Milwaukee and Madison. I'm interested to hear why Evita is less confident. I'm not super confident in either of those states, but I do think that Wisconsin is more likely than Michigan. But I'd be curious to hear Evita's thoughts. And if she thinks that Michigan is more likely.
- [47:02]
Evita Duffy
People. Michigan is more likely.
- [47:04]
Steve Crowder
Sorry, we didn't get your microphone there. I'm sorry. Could you go one more time?
- [47:08]
Evita Duffy
Can you hear me now?
- [47:10]
Steve Crowder
Yes. Yes, ma'am.
- [47:11]
Evita Duffy
No, I. No. So what I'm saying, what I meant is that I think Milwaukee is a little more prone to cheating. That's what I'm saying. I think it's a little insecure. They're having to recount already in Milwaukee. There were a lot of discrepancies in 2020. I'm not worried about the people of Wisconsin. I love the people of Wisconsin. I'm worried about the process.
- [47:29]
Mike Benz
Yeah, I think you kind of echo the same. You just said the same thing. You kind of echoed the same sentiments. Right.
- [47:34]
Steve Crowder
About Michigan. Yeah, about Michigan. And so I hear where you're coming, but in Michigan, they just made it too big for people to understand there was a cheat. Like, for example, I didn't live in Michigan for a very long time in the last election, but I received a ballot to my old address and it just said that it was processed, and I had no way to confirm whether it was actually filled out or not. And by the way, I checked on relatives in Michigan, same thing, who I know did vote and it just said processing. And there was no way to confirm, at least as the election the ballots were being counted. So yes, I hear you, Milwaukee, Evita, but I would ask you, you know, because you, you're the state that had Scott Walker, by the way, not really a rhino, someone who was pretty conservative, was looked at for the national stage. We haven't had that in Michigan in quite a while. The state legislature kind of goes back and forth, but the entire system in Michigan is corrupt because of Wayne County. And not only that, but you can see it in Grand Rapids. You certainly see it even in northern Michigan areas like Traverse City, which basically is San Francisco of the north. So exactly what you're saying about Wisconsin I'm not as familiar with is exactly why I feel that Michigan would be hard. Not because of the people, though, a little bit because of the people, but because of the union strongholds. And I just. Look, in Michigan, we talked about this. We just had a Chinese exchange student who voted, asked for their ballot back and they found out this person was a non citizen. But the vote will still count. And in Michigan you don't actually have to provide proof of citizenship. You just sign an affidavit and where.
- [48:54]
Evita Duffy
Is Michigan on mail, on the dropboxes? Because I know Wisconsin has them all over the place now. Our Supreme Court said it's okay. So does Michigan allow that too?
- [49:02]
Steve Crowder
I don't know what the recent rulings have been, but I do know that they have allowed them in the past. Again, these things are kind of fluid right now with them going up and down in the courts.
- [49:09]
Evita Duffy
Right.
- [49:09]
Steve Crowder
But you know, Michigan is that state where you had that hockey, you had that famous graph, right? And you had the red wagons come in with votes and you had people board up the precincts with Bristol boards. So if it's as bad in Wisconsin, they weren't as flagrant. Like they didn't even try and hide it in Michigan. So maybe they just do a better job of hiding it Wisconsin. But I think it's the same thing, what you're saying, the people and the representation, there's a pretty big divide. And you're probably more in tune with Wisconsin, but same thing with Michigan. I know so many people who would vote for Donald Trump. It's definitely close, but you don't always see that in those national elections.
- [49:42]
Mike Benz
Steve, I gotta, I'll let you run after this question and continue to dominate with the live stream. Rumble loves you. I love you been a good friend to me. Georgia right now does not look good for Kamala Harris. Now, again, it depends on what portion of the state. There could be some urban vote, there could be some rural. We don't really know. But 55% of the vote is. So we have a good sample size. Donald Trump is, at this point is up pretty handily in Georgia. This doesn't look good again for Kamala Harris. What's your team telling you about Georgia? Because like I said, if Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina go our way handily, there's just no math for her.
- [50:18]
Steve Crowder
Well, there's math for her if she wins Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. But, you know, yeah, it's a certainly a good start. And that's why we thought if we look at the east coast, we're looking for some other indicators, like in Virginia, like in New Hampshire, to see where that margin is. But actually, Gerald, I believe has an update right now on Georgia from our Real Time data analyst. It's so funny you asked that.
- [50:37]
Mike Benz
I asked for a trend in Georgia right now just so we can see it. So 48% statewide county counted. Dekalb is not reported yet. But Trump at the last dump in.
- [50:45]
Adam Gillette
The last hour, he's received 57.2% of the vote.
- [50:48]
Mike Benz
So going forward on these, as these dumps come in, that number that he.
- [50:52]
Steve Crowder
Needs to win is going down. So 46% of the outstanding vote is.
- [50:56]
Mike Benz
All he needs to win in Georgia right now.
- [50:58]
Steve Crowder
So that's something that we will track over time. It is heading down.
- [51:01]
Mike Benz
It was 47.7%. Now it's 46%. So as these dumps come in, Trump is getting a large share and it's cutting the number he needs of whatever's.
- [51:08]
Steve Crowder
Remaining to actually be able to win. So the trend is good in Georgia right now. Yes. And we're providing right now. So I'm losing my voice. This is from all the acidic vomit the last two days, no joke, where I was worried about my vocal cords keeping up. We actually have an exclusive graph that we're providing to the audience so they can see what percentage of the remaining dumps Donald Trump knows. So they can see that go down in real time. And yeah, like you said, it's a very good trend for Donald Trump. It's not a deadlock. But if you look at Georgia and you look at North Carolina, he wins those. And of course, Florida was called very early, and you look at the margins in some of those eastern states, you didn't have to win them, for example, like in a place Like New York, I think he only needs to be within 16. I think only losing it by 16, and that would put him really, with. The last Republican to win, I believe, was George H.W. bush in 1988, who came that close to New York. So we're looking at some of these numbers. I think you're right. Hopefully would just help undergird, you know, not your gut feeling in some of the numbers. But, you know, we have guys getting their nerds back there, Dan. They're real nerds.
- [52:05]
Mike Benz
Steve, Listen, man, again, I'll let you roll, but what I'm. What I'm feeling right now and what I want to say, I'm kind of holding inside because I don't want to get out ahead of myself. But in 2016, you know Dan Horowitz over at Conservative Review. Do you know Dan at all? Yeah, he has his own podcast. But, yeah, Dan and I, we kind of got into it. I mean, friendly. It's not like we were doing jiu jitsu or anything, but we kind of got into it a little bit because I was running in 2016 for Congress, and I was knocking on doors, and I saw it. I saw, like, all these people with yard signs who weren't on my knock list, and they were like, oh, yeah, I never vote. That's why I'm not on your knock list. I'm just voting for Trump. And I said, man, this guy's going to win. And I had that feeling. I'm sensing it this time, too. I mean, the big mo. I don't know what the hell you call it, but. But you just know, like, in a fight, anything from, like, jiu jitsu to when the momentum's on your side, you can feel it. And I want to be Trump right now. I sure as hell don't want to be Kamala.
- [52:59]
Steve Crowder
No, I think that's a good read. And, you know, if you guys want to look at some of these details, you know, you can. It's free for anyone. The election integrity map.com. you can check it out where we're providing data that they're not providing in a lot of these other places. So your gut is right. And the numbers that you have are reflected when you get even deeper, deeper into the numbers. So you're not wrong. But what you're feeling is probably a result of the. The Blue Chews. So let's. Let's keep that to a minimum.
- [53:21]
Mike Benz
Steve, we love you, man. At Rumble, you're. You're amazing. So really, you guys have been an absolute champion for freedom of speech. We're so glad to have you. Rumble Premium mug club moved over.

Because if, if I'm reading this right, this would be absolutely freaking bananas. Is Jim, is this right about Virginia? Yes. Are you sure? Look at Lou, the whole crew here. I know you like say it, spit it out. Apparently Kamala Harris is only up two points in Virginia, folks. That, I mean, if that it depends on who's reporting. You got southern Virginia and you got Nova Northern Virginia. I know the area well from running in Maryland, but my gosh, it's going to be, oh my Gosh, Trump's gaining gain 9% in Loudoun County. Wow. We'll see. Folks, I got excited about Virginia last time. I don't want to get burned. I want to welcome to the show two guests, both friends, Savannah Hernandez. So good to see you. You've done some amazing reporting at the border, kicking ass and taking names. And Adam Gillette from accuracy and media, you've been doing some amazing work. We're dealing with these commies on these college campuses and all these other awful people. So first, I'll go to you first, Adam, your general take on where we stand. Give us your take on some of the identity politics plays the Democrats relied on that aren't there this time the Jewish voters and others that had reliably been a Democrat stronghold.
- [57:28]
Adam Gillette
Well, that's exactly it. All they do is try to divide people into groups and pit them against one another playing identity politics. But it finally got to the point where these Americans were like, well, sure, maybe I don't like this person for whatever thing or Maybe they're supposedly racist, whatever, but I gotta put food on the table. I gotta have a job. I wanna have a better education for my kid. I want my kid to be able to go to school and not get assaulted on the way there by some, you know, criminal on the streets. So at the end of the day, we're all Americans. And even though they could try to divide us based on our race or religion, this and that, all of these issues face us. And I think people are beginning to realize that. And that's more important than however they put you against another group.
- [58:06]
Mike Benz
One follow up and you run. Accuracy in media. I said before, you know, I think this will be tonight if we win big. F the greatest middle finger f you to the mainstream media hacks I've ever seen in really modern politics. If this happens tonight, there is going to be so much crying tomorrow. Like there's not enough Kleenex on the northeast media corridor to make up for that.
- [58:33]
Adam Gillette
That's exactly it. And it's not only on the media, but in the social media. All of these influencers went on the line, put their names out there, took paychecks from the DNC to push BS propaganda to kids. The DNC hires children to propagandize kids. When they lose, they're left with egg on their face. It's one thing if you're paid by a winner, but when you've lied to your audience and now you back the loser, you lose your influence.
- [58:57]
Evita Duffy
Yeah, you tell me, is this the best sign that we've had all night? This is a headline from the New York Post. Georgetown University provides self care suites for coddled students stressed about election day, complete with milk and cookies and coloring books.
- [59:12]
Adam Gillette
Wait a couple hours and they'll start throwing them at the Jewish kids.
- [59:15]
Dan Bongino
Okay, I've been to that campus.
- [59:17]
Mike Benz
It's a dangerous one.
- [59:18]
Evita Duffy
Okay. Yeah, no, I mean, I think we saw this In 2016, the footage of these college campuses and the kids just melting down for days. So do you expect something like that to happen again on college campuses if we see a flip for Trump in this election cycle, especially with the coconut trend and all the outreach that they've been doing on college campuses, or do you think that it's been tempered since then?
- [59:43]
Adam Gillette
I'll tell you, I really legitimately fear major waves of violence. And our hidden camera investigators are literally trying to infiltrate some of these groups as we speak for that reason. Because if Trump wins, I don't want to see it look like the summer of 2020 with every city on fire I don't want to see it look like the spring with all these crazy encampments. So now that we've been able to teach these students that, sure, they may drop the charges, sure, the university might not hold you accountable at all, but this guy is going to show up and ruin your day, and your actions are going to ruin your career. Now that we've introduced accountability for them, some of them are running scared. So if we can do that in a big enough way, I think we stopped.
- [60:18]
Dan Bongino
Stop that.
- [60:19]
Mike Benz
So, Savannah, you've done amazing reporting at the border. I've been following you forever. You're down there like you're deep in the weeds. Your general take on first, how you think the night is going. You're a great reporter. The EV numbers, early vote numbers are great. I mean, we've a lot of Arkansas, by the way, called for Trump, which is not a big surprise. But the, you know, the numbers coming in now, now we have hard numbers, not polls. You want to be Donald Trump. And the role you think immigration played in this, especially in the border states where people in Texas, New Mexico, California, they're really pissed off. Arizona.
- [60:57]
Savannah Hernandez
Oh, absolutely, Dan. And you know what? I feel like a lot of us have PTSD from what happened in 2020. So a lot of us don't want to call it early. But I will say, and I like to do the man on the street work, right. I like traveling the nation and I like going and really engaging the energy in every single state. And the energy surrounding Donald Trump has been incredible. It has completely shifted. Let's not forget that there was a period of time where you couldn't even wear a MAGA hat on the streets of New York without getting punched in the face. And now we saw a sea of MAGA hats and Madison Square Garden completely sold out for Donald Trump. So the energy has been incredible. And regarding illegal immigration, absolutely. It has been the economy, it has been illegal immigration. That has been a the forefront because, and I use New York as my North Star, right, for how the rest of the country is feeling about the illegal problem in this country. And you had Mayor Eric Adams, who was a big proponent of sanctuary cities, who said that New York is a city of immigrants and we will always welcome the immigrant. Even Mayor Eric Adams has stated that this, this situation has gotten out of control. He has been fighting with the federal government. The Biden Harris administration has asked absolutely failed. And in various states. This is absolutely going to part of my French, but bite them in the ass. They have absolutely decimated.
- [62:11]
Mike Benz
Curse on this show.
- [62:12]
Savannah Hernandez
My apologies.
- [62:13]
Mike Benz
My apologies. We're kidding, obviously, that we dive curse on the show all the time. A lot nicer than me, but I have the worst mouth ever. Just get up on the mic a lot, folks. Sorry about the crowd noise, but you know, it's a big party tonight. We're doing our best. I appreciate it. I'm hearing you. But just get up on the mic when you talk. Talk of it.
- [62:33]
Evita Duffy
We saw that. Was it. Was it just last week that Donald Trump said, I'm going to protect women by, you know, securing the border, and then Kamala flipped it and made it some sort of nefarious statement? What's your take on that, Savannah, as a young woman, as somebody in the under 30 female demo that's supposed to be so enthusiastic about Kamala and perceive that as some sort of negative statement from Trump.
- [62:55]
Mike Benz
Right.
- [62:56]
Savannah Hernandez
I think anybody with two brain cells understand exactly what Donald Trump was trying to say. And the average American woman is tired. Right. Because Kamala Harris does not stand for women. If she did, she would secure the borders. She would make sure that our women and children are safe. And I think it's absolutely horrific that American women and children have been sacrificed at the altar of illegal immigration over these past couple of years. Americans have seen that every single time we are opening up the news, there is another woman, there is another child that has been brutalized by an illegal immigrant that should not be here. If you look at the numbers of convicted rapists and murderers that had been let in under Biden and Kamala, it's absolutely atrocious. So as a woman myself, I'm even afraid to get into an Uber because I can't even properly communicate with the person picking me up anymore because illegal immigrants renting out Uber accounts has gotten so out of control, they've rented out doordash accounts. This is something I've researched extensively as well in New York. It's a huge issue, and it's time to crack down. It's time for mass deportations. It's time to clean up the country because our women and our children deserve it. So, yeah, the illegal immigration issue is really, really going to harm Kamala Harris because again, whether or not she likes it and whether or not the media, you know, like, they keep trying to say that she was not the border czar, but she was. And this problem is directly tied to her and Biden. They campaigned on ambassador amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants. And this crisis is a direct result of their policy. Everything that they've talked about. Kamala Harris previously talking about abolishing ice. So this is not the party of protecting women. This is not the party of maintaining our country. And I think the polls will reflect that tonight.
- [64:36]
Mike Benz
Let me ask you specifically about Arizona.
- [64:39]
Savannah Hernandez
Yep.
- [64:39]
Mike Benz
Again, a border state. You're down there. You've done a ton of reporting from the border. Donald Trump has never significantly trailed in any serious polls in Arizona. I mean, maybe I'm asking a question. I already know the answer. But what seems so insane to me is the Democrats just had to not be crazy on the border. Right. Like, there were. I'm not nuts here. Right. There are degrees of depravity. Like you can. I'm not suggesting. I am an absolute, like, close the border, come in the legal way. We get that. But like, if they just would have made some veiled attempt, but these foxes used to launch this drone. And you're like, there's like hundreds of thousands of people. They were so crazy. It's like the nuts that they even expected to compete in Arizona. It's almost like they said, ah, f. You guys, you know.
- [65:27]
Savannah Hernandez
And you know what, Dan? I think the thing too is it's not just the border itself, but it's the infiltration of every American city and town that has really impacted the average American because it's personally affecting them. Now. They are seeing the billions of dollars, I believe 150 billion yearly at this point, that are going toward illegal immigrants in this country. They are seeing that migrants can cross into the United States of America. They are given a plane, train, bus ticket to wherever they would like to go, a $2,000 check, a free hotel room, free healthcare, free childcare, and the average American is paying for all of that. And they're extremely upset because guess what, there's also a huge housing crisis going. Going on, and that is directly correlated to the huge population surge of migrants. So I know you're asking about Arizona, but for example, I just got back from Maine, where in Brunswick, they are giving illegal immigrants free apartments for two years. These are luxury apartments. If you as an American citizen would like to rent one out, it's going to run you about 1800-2300. Illegals that are being flown in on Biden Harris's CHNV program are getting them for free for two years. Years. So the people in border states have been experiencing this for years. And even people in the upper or innermost corners of the United States are seeing this impact, and they're pissed.
- [66:38]
Mike Benz
Wait, one quick thing I just want to throw in. Hey, guys, we had Is, am I reading that right? 431,000 folks. I don't even know what to say. I mean, this is like, I'm really genuinely touched about, you know, army has grown so much. There are 431,000 people. We have filled the big house in Michigan like four times. That is amazing. I can't thank you enough. I'm serious, man. You guys have like, made my whole life. Like, who the hell brings in 431,000 people? 432 on election night. I love you all for being here. Just some quick updates. Producer Jim is doing the Steve Kornacki, he's running around, he's pulling the tie off. He's like that Giphy guy in a thing. He's got things going here and there. So Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, mail in ballots. Adam, I'll get your thoughts on this next. The Pittsburgh area. Okay. The burbs around there, it was 71, 29 to Trump. It was 80, 20 for Biden in 2020. So they're running way, way behind some exit polls, granted their exits. What do we do with exit polls? We typically throw them out, but I'd rather be doing good in them than doing bad. Trump leads in Williamson County, Texas, one of the suburbs of Austin, which is a pretty liberal area of Texas. Trump leads and Biden was plus one in 2020. They called Arkansas for Trump. No surprise there. Wouldn't that be a shocker if Kamala, if Kamala Harris won Arkansas. I'm wrapping this party up tonight. We're all out of here. Forget it. And then Dallas county, Kamala Harris plus 13 in 2020, Biden was plus 22. Producer Jim's going to go do his thing. Get us some more info. Adam, again, Pennsylvania, the, you know, Austin suburbs in Texas, can it. Is there a single trend going in Kamala Harris's direction tonight? Like, am I missing something?
- [68:38]
Adam Gillette
Not that I see. And I thought the Virginia one was the most interesting one because that's the state where two years ago Republicans thought they were going to flip one house of the legislature and take total control of the government. Instead, they lost the one house they held. Loudoun county in particular previously had a state attorney who tried to arrest me for doing activism against their wacko city.
- [68:57]
Mike Benz
Commissioners there or county commissioners.
- [68:59]
Adam Gillette
Instead, now they're trending towards Trump. And to see Pennsylvania, a state where Republicans tried to work with the Democrat governor to get school choice happening. And of course the union owned Democrats had to block that. People are sick of the madness and insanity when you've got bipartisan ideas. Like school choice being pushed in Pennsylvania. And these wackos want to insist that kids go to failing schools in dangerous environments throughout the state. Yeah, of course they're going to be ticked off.
- [69:24]
Mike Benz
You know, school choice is a big issue with me. I was a product of de facto school choice. My parents were not, not particularly wealthy. A local Catholic school took us on as kind of a charity case. I'm only here speaking to you in semi coherent English because of school choice. This is the issue that flipped Florida. Black female voters went for Ron DeSantis in numbers Ron DeSantis that we hadn't seen in a long time. This is a winning issue for Republicans. I know it's not the sexiest topic in the world, I get that. But this is absolutely a winner. Kim R.A. reynolds in Iowa, Rand Greg Abbott in Texas. I mean, if Josh Shapiro had some freaking balls in Pennsylvania, the Democrat governor, it would have already been passed. But of course he doesn't. He's like a eunuch. But this is a huge issue, especially for minority voters.
- [70:09]
Adam Gillette
It's a huge issue for every American because the biggest donors in American politics aren't the Kochs. They're not George Soros. They're our own tax dollars through the teachers unions. These public schools exist to funnel our taxpayers to the teachers unions in big government. Left wing candidates, it's the only job they do consistently well. The kids don't learn a damn thing. But every two weeks without fail, those unions get our money and every two years, those politicians get that cash.
- [70:33]
Mike Benz
Biggest scam I've ever seen.
- [70:35]
Evita Duffy
Can I ask you about Virginia? Because we're seeing good things about it. It might not go to go to Trump and that's fine. But there's a lot of areas, of course, that are near Washington, D.C. and I think that part of why we're seeing potential things from Virginia right now is because so many of them are afraid to tell their neighbors who they're voting for if they're voting for Trump. Right. And we saw that video last week of a woman who claimed to be part of the security state yelling at a black Trump supporter for saying that she, in a private conversation supported him. How do you think the silent vote that the silent Trump supporter is going to impact this election, especially in places like Virginia, where you might not be, might not be MAGA country?
- [71:13]
Mike Benz
I think it speaks to what you.
- [71:14]
Adam Gillette
Said before, where people are sick of it. They're sick of the media telling them how to think and denying reality. They're sick of the media saying Kamala's Doing a great job in the border and then half an hour saying she was never in charge of the border. I don't know what you're talking about. And it speaks to the disdain they have for the average American and how stupid they think that we are that they can say those lies and get away with it and people are sick of it. And I think you're seeing those responses in states like Virginia as or Savannah.
- [71:40]
Mike Benz
I've said this to my audience many times. The unbelievable Bongino army, who I love 436,000. Gosh, you guys are unbelievable. I'm really, like, flattered. I think Donald Trump's lasting gift to the Republican Party. I'll get your thoughts after this, too. It's not going to be the policy stuff. Let's be honest. He's run a pretty standard conservative first term. I mean, Middle east policy, tax cuts, this is, I mean, this is the kind of stuff conservatives do. There was nothing unusual about his first term conservative justices. There was nothing strange, there was nothing even, you know, there was nothing groundbreaking outside of the fact that he acted as a conservative. His real gift is going to be he penetrated this sick Republican culture where we just had forfeited the Hispanic and black vote. We said we didn't, but, you know, we did. They'd be like, we're going to urban centers. They were full of shit. I ran in Maryland. I would go in Lexington Market in Baltimore. I know, you know, the area. There were people like, you're a Republican. Like, they looked at you like you were a fucking space alien. Like, they never seen a Republican in our lives. We always bullshitted people. Donald Trump, I don't know what it is, man, but he broke through this. And I swear to you, his lasting gift is going to be opening the eyes of minority voters who are now like, damn, these guys were with me the whole time, these Republicans.
- [73:04]
Savannah Hernandez
You know, Dan, you say you don't know what it is, but I'll tell you what it is. He's a businessman and he loves the American people and he always has. I've been reading the Art of the Deal, and Donald Trump, since, you know, his inception, truly has cared about helping his fellow man. And I feel like that has translated into his campaign. He's not a politician. He's a regular. I don't know if he's a regular American citizen, but, you know, he's somebody that relatable. He's somebody who can get up on stage. Yeah, exactly. He acts like a normal person. He's not like Kamala Harris.
- [73:32]
Mike Benz
Isn't that weird, though? He's a billionaire and he's the most relatable guy in the race.
- [73:37]
Savannah Hernandez
And you know why, Dan? Because I was thinking about this, and it's because he has real world experience. You know why Kamala Harris is so awkward? Because she doesn't have real world experience. She's not talking to people on the street. Donald Trump has gone to the Bronx, of all places. He's going, and he's hanging out with people in barbershops. He's going to freaking McDonald's, okay?
- [73:58]
Mike Benz
Like, he's just not weird around here.
- [73:59]
Savannah Hernandez
He's a normal human being, and it really resonates with the people. Kamala Harris is over here. She can't even fake her own phone call correctly. It's a joke.
- [74:06]
Mike Benz
I know you saw that.
- [74:07]
Evita Duffy
Yeah, I do.
- [74:07]
Savannah Hernandez
It's hilarious. But that's what it is. He's so authentic. He's an authentic human being. He sees the problems that we all see, and he wants to fix them. At the end of the day, that's it. He just, like me, was censored off of Twitter for years. Right? So it's really cool to just see a candidate who can relate to the American people on such a personal level. I mean, let's talk about the overreach of government, the persecution that the average American is facing from, again, a bloated and completely corrupt government. He has truly faced everything that we have, and he famously said what, that they're not after me, they're after you. I'm just in the way. And I think we can see that every single day in the way that he acts, in the way he portrays himself and the way he speaks to the American people.
- [74:47]
Mike Benz
You like Savannah and Adam, by the way. Please. Where can they find you on X or website? Promote your stuff and then I'm going to. I got a question for you. Go ahead.
- [74:56]
Savannah Hernandez
Yeah, go follow me on Rumble, of all places. You know, thanks to Elon Musk as well for buying X. This is the first election I'm actually able to commentate on because I was banned for two years. But go follow me on X at Sav says and then Rumble as well. Incredible platform.
- [75:08]
Mike Benz
We love Rumble as Sav, short for Savannah. She's amazing. You want to see more of her on the Dan Bongino show and Early Edition with Evita? I do. We love our content, Adam. Love yours too. Where can people find you, support your work? Accuracy in media.
- [75:22]
Adam Gillette
Where we're on every social media platform. Our website is aim.org you could join us in putting frowns in the faces of bad people.
- [75:28]
Mike Benz
Well, I tell you what, tonight is looking amazing. And I know. Listen, I know shouting fraud is a horrible thing. Like, I get it. But I gotta tell you, man, I saw a tweet today. I'm not gonna say from who, because I actually like the guy, but he's kind of one of these old school, like mainstream Republic. You probably saw the tweet. You see where I'm going with this? And the gist of the tweet was, hey, man, remember, no matter what happens, like, we're all Americans. Yeah. I mean, technically we're all citizens, but that's not what I've been told, brother. I've been told, like you've been told and you've been told and you've been told that I'm a fascist, I'm a misogynist, I don't like immigrants, I'm a racist, I'm a Nazi. And I'm sorry, man. Like, I don't want to see anybody's feelings get hurt, but I don't really give a shit if we win tonight. And you're crying because you ran a dumbass fucking campaign telling people like, half of America are a bunch of Nazis when all we want to do is be left alone. I mean, I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood for a kumbaya moment.
- [76:23]
Adam Gillette
You know, I disagree slightly. I want to see some feelings get hurt.
- [76:27]
Mike Benz
Okay, well, you disagree. Said a good direction. I do. I just. If they wake up tomorrow. Savannah, your thoughts on this, too? These media people, If I wake up tomorrow, you know what? They should hurt a little bit, because maybe that emotional pain is enough. I doubt it, I doubt it, I doubt it. But to look in the mirror and go, okay, maybe calling half of America freaking Nazi serial murders was not a good idea.

Savannah Hernandez
Dan, I've made it my life's mission to go and confront a lot of these media members to their face. I did it at the RNC and the dnc. And you know what? They always run scared because they know that they're pathetic liars and they are, quite frankly, traitors to the American public. They have a responsibility, just like you and I do, to tell the American public the truth, to give us the real news. And they have lied to us extensively. And you know what, Dan? I said this earlier. I said, if you voted for Donald Trump, congratulations on breaking through a multi billion dollar propaganda campaign targeted at making you vote against a prosperous and free America. The media was very much a part of that. And I want them to be ashamed because they should be, because they are horrible. And watching them cry is just going to be.

You guys remember Alexa. I got an update here, folks, and it's a good one. It's a very good one. Now, again, these are exit polls, so take everything with a massive grain of salt that looks like a boulder. Remember, the John Kerry debacle with the exit polls was at 2004. They were like, who is it who came in a room? Let me be the first to call you Mr. President. Pro tip. He was not Mr. President. However, I'd rather be on the right side of them. And when you see trends like this, this NBC exit poll that are ridiculously bad for Kamala Harris, even if they're off by a little bit, folks, this is really bad. Thank you. NBC exit poll. Hispanic men up 33% from 2020 for Donald Trump, folks. He's running out of Runway. To take this plane off. She's got to eventually come up with some exit poll, some of the numbers coming in, some early voting data because she's just out of Runway. Here's some more. New Jersey and Delaware, go for common New Jersey. I bet it's going to be a little more competitive than it was in the past, but that would have been a reach. And Georgia with 55% of the vote in Donald Trump's up 11. A cautionary note on Georgia. We don't know exactly the breakdown of who's in and who's not yet. So just a note of caution on that. And Virginia, again, 39% of the vote in this thing is ridiculously competitive. Adam, you know Virginia politics. I mean, listen, Virginia used to be a reliably red state. I ran in Maryland, sister state right next door. I know Virginia politics very, very well. Glenn Youngkin wins there. They've got a lot of government workers who sometimes tend to vote Democrat, overwhelming Democrat. I think we know that Virginia changed to a reliably blue state. This does not look good in Virginia for Kamala Harris at all.
- [79:27]
Adam Gillette
I think the wild thing with those exit polls, and it goes to what you said earlier about immigration, is immigration is the issue that bit them in the ass on both ends because they thought we bring in all these immigrants, they're going to be reliable Hispanic voters for years. Uh oh, that didn't turn out to be the case. They're turning into traditional Catholic voters who two, three generations later end up voting like Italians and Irish ultimately did. And then the more recent immigrants who come in illegally have turned people off. So on both ends, the immigrants who've been here for several generations now flipping Republican and the illegals coming in now turning other people Republican. It's the issue that they thought demographics were destiny and reality, it's destroying them.
- [80:06]
Mike Benz
Just one, sorry, but wouldn't this be like the greatest fail of all time that they bring in a number of Hispanic immigrants from around the world thinking it's a reliable voting block, and they start to flip to red? It would be the most epic fail. I'm sorry.
- [80:21]
Evita Duffy
Awesome. But then you have to think, you know, in the long, in the short term, they vote really left wing because they get hooked on all these government programs. So I hate to be the. I'm the. I'm the. I'm the great cloud.
- [80:30]
Mike Benz
I got you here.
- [80:32]
Evita Duffy
But I want to, I want to ask you, Adam, about, about this tweet that I was seeing from Obama. He did it, I think he did it earlier in the day, saying we're not going to see election results on the same day, but don't worry about it. And I was listening to MSNBC and CNN this morning and they were saying the same thing, priming us all to not be ready for results this evening. What do you think is the significance of that? And as somebody who's a lot older than I am. Right. At least a little bit. Is this normal in American politics that now we just never get election results in the same night?
- [81:02]
Adam Gillette
Well, let's remember we're dealing with government counting these ballots. We're not dealing with elon Musk and SpaceX. We're dealing with the idiots who can't deliver mail or educate your kids. So ineptitude and incompetence are the rules of the day. Now I'm biased. I'm a Floridian. We're the greatest state in American history. I think our people finished counting everything, went to the bar and got drunk. We're done. But other states are still run by morons, like the Northeastern states. With apologies. I grew up in Jersey, but with apologies to those, they're run by morons. They have dumb rules. Pennsylvania doesn't count the mail in votes ahead of time. I have no idea why not. Maybe they want to be the center of attention. But sadly, all these states aren't run as well as ours.
- [81:39]
Mike Benz
Savannah. I'm going to take a quick break, folks. I want to just follow up with one last question and then we'll bring Julie and Mike. Julie and Mike back for some follow up on some deep state stuff.

People do it like Savannah on the immigration issue. They are so terrified about us talking about this that they're trying to put the racist boogeyman on us. Now you and I know that's bullshit. I mean you need is Savannah Hernandez. It's like kind of hard to make that case, but they will anyway. And they throw out this replacement theory thing that oh my gosh, this replacement thing you guys talk about is so racist. Yet the interesting thing about that is I have played this replacement theory demographic destiny soundbite on my show at least probably 25 times. And it's all Democrats talking about how they want to replace you with illegal immigrants. And I'm like, hey guys, guys, if this thing is some big racist boogeyman, then you guys are the worst offenders.
- [85:03]
Savannah Hernandez
Right? And the media has done a really good job at trying to scare us out of talking about this issue by, you know, labeling it this big racist thing. But you're absolutely right. It is not racist to love your country. It is not racist to have a secure border. It is not racist for your women and children to want them to be safe. Right? And you're completely right when it comes to this issue. I was just in Logan's have never heard of this town in my life. About an hour north of Indianapolis, they had a 30% demographic change because this tiny town of 18,000 people, primarily white, has now been surged with Haitians who are not assimilating, who do not speak the language. So you absolutely are seeing that demographic change. And then if you actually look at the statistics of illegal aliens that have come into this country versus the amount of Americans that are giving birth, like those numbers, I think the amount of illegal immigrants has actually surpassed for, I want to say 20, 23, the amount of American births. So we absolutely are being replaced. Elon Musk has done a really good job as well of drawing attention to how these migrants are going to swing states specifically. And we're seeing a three digit increase in the amount of them here. And why is that? Because they will ultimately play into how the census is drawn. Right. And how congressional district is going to go. They will ultimately change the foundations of this country. And it is an issue that we need to get under control.
- [86:24]
Mike Benz
Well, I want to thank you guys for joining me on the panel. We're not done. We'll bring you back. Go have a adult soda if you'd like. Up to you. We have no rules on drinking. I'm not going to say I have never been intoxicated on the air. There was a New Year's Eve party. I believe mom was there one time, and I said, hey, I was with Fox. I said, you know, you know, I was out like drinking before and they were like, just don't curse on the air. It's all okay. But that was New Year's. But have a drink. Looks like a good night. We'll bring you guys back. Thanks so much. We appreciate it. So, yeah, bring over Julie. So any. Any updates for us? What's that, 464,000. Get us to 500. If we get to 500,000 people, I'll tell you what, 500,000 people. I'm doing a double shot at tequila because. Where's Kyle G? Where's my man Kyle G? Hey, Kyle, are you around? Is that Miles from Brick House Nutrition? Hey, Miles, come on over here. Say hello. It's another one of this was. I want you to meet this guy. This guy, folks, was one of my original sponsors. Just come over, wave to the camera on this side because this guy was amazing. He stuck with me early. That's Miles when I talk about him from Brick House Nutrition. Here, sit down for a second, brother. You're a good man. You were one of my original sponsors. I appreciate it. Tell me quick when we first get that you're brother man. So good to see you, Miles. You clearly take the product. I mean, look at this guy. He's kind of jacked. He's making me look small. Get out of that seat. Okay. It's like a foil effect now, but just talking to the mic. So you were, you were legit? My first sponsor. Number one sponsor, yeah. What did you see in the show, man? Early on we saw Dan on the Mark Levin show and Adam I were first building my brother. We were first building the company and we said, I think we can get him as a sponsor. And my brother goes, let's make like a Twitter poll or something. And will Dan Bongino sponsor Brick House Nutrition? Yes or no? And you just DM'd us fly down to Florida. So the next week we met in a Panera Jupiter. Do you remember that? I met you in Panera. My brother, the Navy seal, he's got his long hair all tatted up. I fly down with the same. Same weird long hair and brother some deals. You're a patriot, bro. It's a pleasure, folks. Support his company, brickhouse nutrition.com. hey, thanks for coming out today. This guy's the best, man. He was one of the first ones with me. Get this thing to 500. You get this thing to 500. I am Kyle G. Come here. Come over here, Kyle. This is Kyle G. I talk about him on the air. It is his restaurant. This is OK in downtown Stewart. It is the finest place on earth to live. But don't tell anyone because everybody keeps moving down here. Kyle, thank you for having us. So I said to the audience, if we get to 500, 000, I know you bought some special tequila I like for the place that I will do a double shot on the air for this. I may do it with you. I'll do it with you. You gotta get a 500. We're gonna do one if we window. How are you feeling about the night? I know you've been a real advocate for. I'm feeling good. You know, the moment momentum we've got going in is phenomenal. I don't really see how anyone can watch Kamala and actually vote for her. So I'm feeling good about tonight. I'm glad to be here. I'm glad you guys are here and I'm ready to rock. Folks, in the chat, can you thank Kyle for me? This guy has been so amazing. I really. He's been going out of his way. Thank you. So, Kyle G. He's a patriot. And thank you for being a businessman and employing people and not apologizing for loving liberty and freedom. Thank you. My pleasure. And look at the shirt he's got on. He's rocking the outlaw shirt. One of our favorite for the outlaw, baby. Thank you, brother. Thanks, everybody. You got it, man. So if you're ever down in Florida, make sure you go to either Kyle G's ok. He's got a ton of great restaurants down here. You're going to love him. I also got my good friend Mike here, Metakitis, who I love. He's got some great restaurants down here. Hudson's and stuff. There are awesome restaurants. The Boathouse, Stewart Boathouse. Just great places. So, folks, the numbers are looking even worse. There is not a single positive trend line going in that direction Where Kamala Harris looks in any way good, it is all bad for them at this point. There is nothing that looks good for them at all. The only thing I'm gonna. Here's one race, though, I'm a little bit nervous about. I. I do have to give you kind of the good and the bad. Did I not say this this week? Remember the Nebraska Senate race? I'm a little bit nervous about the Nebraska Senate race, folks. Oh, just. Gosh, that Senate race in Texas a little close, but Ted Cruz is doing well there. That's good. They called the Minnesota Senate race for Klobuchar. No bit. What's that? Oh, Brian's here. Oh, I'll tell Brian to come on. Brian, come on over. Hey, we got Congressman Brian Mast here. Brian is my congressman. We love Brian. Brian, it represents the district here. Brian's a war hero. Brian took some significant injuries in combat. Brian, obviously, your race kind of, like, didn't bode well for your opponent. It did not. Yes. They keep. They, they keep trying, Brian. It's not really working out.
- [91:32]
Brian Mast
It's been a number of years since I got a concession phone call from one, though, I can tell you that.
- [91:36]
Steve Crowder
Really?
- [91:36]
Julie Kelly
Yeah.
- [91:37]
Mike Benz
You did? Getting. No, no, I didn't.
- [91:38]
Brian Mast
I don't think I've got concession phone call for the last three years.
- [91:41]
Mike Benz
So how are you feeling about tonight? You're the congressional representative for this district in Florida. I don't. The Florida was an absolute electoral bloodbath for Kamala Harris. I don't see that as isolated to the Southern states. I think she's in real trouble.
- [91:54]
Brian Mast
No, look, I've been traveling with JD and the president over the last couple weeks, and even beyond that, and the places that I've been visiting, you know, yes, of course, it's. It's a biased crowd when you go there, they go to see the president, go see the vice president's biased crowd. But when I go to some of these places and you just constantly are meeting people saying, hey, I'm a Democrat. I've never voted Republican before. I'm going this way. My union was telling me this. You know, just in Michigan, in Wisconsin, in Pennsylvania, you're hearing things from people where they're telling you this is their first time ever, and it's palpable.
- [92:25]
Mike Benz
Yeah. The Rick Scott race in Senate. The Senate race and flow looks like a blowout. And remember they were saying the Democrats were saying their targets were going to be Ted Cruz and Rick Scott. That was the biggest money flushing down the toilet bowl exercise I've seen since the Lindsey Graham race in the last cycle with Jamie Harrison. Come on. Yeah, but do you ever think they really had a shot?
- [92:45]
Brian Mast
Not at all. But I'll tell you this. When I would visit Texas, because I was visiting Texas as one of the places being on the road, people in Texas were asking about Florida. Hey, how's Rick Scott? We hear that he's going to have a tough race. And I was telling them the same thing that they were telling me about Ted Cruz. Well, you tell me about Ted Cruz. I hear that he might have a tough race. No, no, this is Texas. He's totally safe. I'm telling the same thing. No, no, it's Florida. Rick's going to be just fine.
- [93:08]
Mike Benz
The New Hampshire governor's race, which is really the only competitive race, folks. Kelly Iott is the Republican. She looks really good right now. We don't have the hope, but that's, that's obviously a governorship we'd like to take back. Now, Brian, you've seen the political transformation of the state of Florida. Is this, Is this going to be your fourth. Is it fifth? Fifth term? So it's going to be your fifth term. I remember when you first ran, Florida was legitimately a swing state. If you won the presidency by a half a point, it was like a landslide. I think Donald Trump started it. Ron DeSantis watered that seed. And now tonight, if the numbers are as bad as they look for Kamala Harris in Florida, I gotta tell you, I think us in Ohio may be kind of out of the switch, swing state category. Maybe, you know, not forever, but at least in the near future.
- [93:57]
Brian Mast
You use the right terminology. They watered that seed. What did they water it with? They watered it with good conservative policy that people certainly realized during COVID But even beyond that, hey, that stuff they're doing in Florida, not closing things down, letting people be free, having, you know, no state taxes, you name it. This, this. I think I'd like to have those things in my life.
- [94:15]
Mike Benz
Why?
- [94:16]
Brian Mast
Because I get an immediate raise if I move to Florida. Let me move out of this northeast state and come down here and have a better lifestyle.
- [94:22]
Mike Benz
Yeah.
- [94:23]
Evita Duffy
About Amendment 3, my husband and I voted different on this issue, and I wanted. So I believe that the results are showing that people voted against, so. Meaning that we're not going to have legalized weed in the state. What are your thoughts on that? Do you think that was the right move? As a libertarian, A lot of people on the right are split on that issue.
- [94:41]
Brian Mast
I chair the Congressional Cannabis Caucus. Never been a cannabis user of any kind, way, shape or form ever in my life. But at the federal level dealing with this, I say, look, we got 38 states that already have their own programs operating outside of the federal law, just by state's rights as an issue, they should be able to have this descheduled from the federal level, deal with this on their own, in my opinion. So that's been my stance on it as a whole. You know, Florida, whether Florida is dealing with this in the right way, I think we're going to find out a little bit. Some of the, I don't want to call it scare tactics, but the things that they've been saying about, hey, they're going to be able to, you know, light up in the, light up in the booth next to you in the.
- [95:16]
Dan Bongino
Restaurant or something like that.
- [95:18]
Brian Mast
I don't know if that's true or not true in the way that they're saying it, but from a federal standpoint, deschedule it. Let states deal with it themselves. They already have many legal programs. Let them dealing it in the banking side of it so people don't have to keep operating with cash to, you know, whether they're leasing a place or running a grow operation or something else. Just makes sense to get it out of the federal hands, in my opinion.
- [95:38]
Mike Benz
It doesn't look like abortion was the winner. They thought it was going to be in the state of Florida either.
- [95:44]
Brian Mast
They tried that in other states. Well, I think they tried that in Texas, too. Not going to be a winner there. Not going to be a winner in the state of Florida. People are pragmatic here. They're going to, they're going to, you know, look at the individuals, look at the individual constitutional amendments. And in the end, we don't want this to be a tourist state for abortion either. So.
- [95:58]
Mike Benz
Yeah. Brian Mast, Congratulations. Five more questions.
- [96:03]
Evita Duffy
We have Julie Kelly here. We were just talking about the January Sixers and their future is just really in the hands of God right now. Depending on how this election goes. What needs to be done in Congress to get those tapes finally fully released and why hasn't that happened already?
- [96:19]
Brian Mast
The long and the short of why it hasn't happened. You're dealing with a House of Representatives with barely, with a majority and some people that just don't care to deal with it. Many of us do. I also chair a caucus known as the Congressional, the Justice for Warriors Caucus. We deal specifically with members of the military that are basically trying to get screwed. Not trying to, but they're getting screwed by previously the Obama administration, now the Biden administration. So for these January Sixers, one of the things we were dealing with is if you're a member of the military, you're getting a military retirement, you can have that taken away because of incarceration, even if incarceration is you haven't even been adjudicated yet, yet you're just locked up and you chose not to post a bail or they wouldn't give you a bail or whatever it might be. So that's what justice for warriors has been dealing with that. But obviously the Senate under Schumer has absolutely zero desire to deal with this other than try to make some kind of political bludgeon out of it in the way they see fit. President Biden, his administration, they're not going to touch it at all in any way that we see appropriate. And again, just there's a lot of Republicans that unfortunately don't want to deal with it. I'm for dealing with it. I think we owe them that. But there's too many that aren't.
- [97:24]
Mike Benz
Brian. We're talking to Brian Mass, folks, Congressman from the state of Florida. He's my congressman. One, I know I said we'd let you go. One last question. Halfway predictions, whatever they're like, you know, everybody's got one. I get it. But I think we're, you know, a good part. And it's 9, 11 Eastern Time. Are we going to hold the House? Are we going to add to the House or are we going to hold the House and lose a few seats there?
- [97:46]
Brian Mast
I absolutely think there are some seats that we may lose. I haven't been able, able to see any of the numbers yet or how things have been turning out. I just came from my own, you know, talking to press, answering questions. But I know we had some tough races there. But I know there's some seats they thought we'd pick up in Michigan despite the fact that we might lose one or two in New York. So I think you might see some flipping. I do think we hold the majority. I don't think you're looking at majority of 20. I think, you know, maybe we could see a majority of, you know, 5 where we're at right now, up to 10. But I don't think it's much more than that myself.
- [98:15]
Mike Benz
And on the House, as you well know, you work there, you need that leeway. People get sick. You know, you get, you just need, you need a bit of a buffer over there.
- [98:23]
Brian Mast
They get sick. But yeah, you know, it becomes a place like the Senate where every representative is this old their own island where they get to make all of these demands. And if you don't give me this pet, whatever it is, I'm not going to get on board for this thing that the country really needs. And you see it time and time again, of course, in the Senate because they just got this very, very slim minority majority that goes back and forth. But now you see that in the House, too, where you can't get anything through without getting that one guy. And you have to give that guy, you know, absolutely everything, the kitchen sink in order to get him on something. That should just be common sense.
- [98:57]
Mike Benz
But yeah, it happens. Congressman Brian Max.
- [99:00]
Brian Mast
Dan.

Mike Benz

Dan Bongino
They're good numbers. I'll say that. I'm, you know, if, if you had asked six months ago, would you like to be up 195 to 113 at, you know, a little after 9pm on election night and all the different trends that you've been identifying, I would say things are looking very good. The part that I'm concerned about are what plays out over the next few hours here and especially because they've already primed us to believe that the main key swing states are going to remain undecided, potentially running on us.
- [102:54]
Mike Benz
This, this blue, this blue Mirage redshift, is that an op they were running on us?
- [102:58]
Dan Bongino
Right, because ordinarily you. We've had, we have never had an election before last, last time that results were not known on election night. Even the contested 2000 election.
- [103:10]
Mike Benz
Just called Ohio for Trump. Nice.
- [103:15]
Dan Bongino
Ohio.
- [103:16]
Mike Benz
Yes, we love you, Ohio. I'm sorry, Mike, go ahead. Nice. 195 to 113. Ohio in the Trump column. We are loving us some Ohio right now.
- [103:28]
Dan Bongino
No, it's amazing. The main concern is what is going to be happening in the next few hours in deep blue cities where you have these deep blue Soros das who are going to potentially be able to safeguard what happens in the dark in those districts where there are just not a lot of Republicans to be able to call them to account or to be able to challenge the legal system. What happens in Michigan and Wisconsin when you have places like Detroit, when you have places like Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. And, you know, I think we're all waiting for that to be, you know, have a little bit more visibility on that before being able to have the kind of confidence that I think everybody wants to feel and is quite palpable because of the momentum we currently have.
- [104:08]
Mike Benz
Julie, there's going to be massive media pressure if this gets uglier because this is really bad right now for her. He's already at 195, 113. It's only 9:18 Eastern Time. Massive pressure on the media to not call this. The Mike knows it, you know it. They want to drag this thing out so they can dig stuff up. They can start filing lawsuits. You're going to have Mark Elias, who you know well, for all the wrong reasons, is going to be suing everyone and their mother and their dog. There's going to be big time pressure to not call this thing.
- [104:36]
Julie Kelly
There is. And then that's why I think Google was suppressing anyone calling the race. They weren't going to promote any posts about that. But I think this has been part of the orchestrated campaign against Elon Musk. Musk is that he's not going to prevent Donald Trump from saying that he won or other commentators or independent news outlets from claiming that Donald Trump won. So the outrage from the media will be partially their loss of control because they controlled it. Of course, they controlled Twitter in 2020. The game has totally changed. And so these numbers look really good. I know we talked, talked about, I think we mentioned this. Baldwin County, Georgia, flipped to Donald Trump, a 41% black county for the first time went Republican in 2004.
- [105:25]
Mike Benz
Possible news.
- [105:26]
Julie Kelly
And also the exit polling. And I know again, we talked about that. But independence in Georgia And Pennsylvania broke 5 to 6% for Donald Trump. They Were tied right now in North Carolina. 49. 49 independents. So none of this data looks good for her. And of course, obviously the black vote, the Hispanic vote and the gender gap that they were banking on, a 20 point gender gap, at least women to men, it does not look like that's materializing anywhere. So how can you look then ahead to Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin and feel like what we're already seeing early on, what we saw in the late polls will not replicate itself in those states as well?
- [106:08]
Evita Duffy
Did you think that this is actually the year of the Man? Because we've been told so many times, right. That women are going to drive the vote out for Kamala. She's going to, you know, bring everybody in. Because this abortion issue, we just saw that Amendment 4 went for the pro lifers and here in Florida. So do you think it's possible that actually the male turnout is going to be the real decider of this election instead of it being women like the media primed us for this whole election cycle?
- [106:28]
Julie Kelly
It could be. But I'll tell you what, Evita, I thought that really weird commercial that was with the voiceover by Julia Roberts where.
- [106:35]
Evita Duffy
She'S like, oh, yeah, she's telling Republican women that our husbands are abusive or something.
- [106:40]
Julie Kelly
It was so weird, intimidate. But it also signaled something, right? They're not gonna produce a commercial like that and have Julia Roberts if they didn't really have some suspicion or some fear that the gender gap was not going to materialize. Why, why would they, why would they produce a commercial like that with a heavy hitter like Julia Roberts if they were really confident that women, especially white women, were going to come out in these huge numbers, double digit gap. So to me, that was a little bit of a tell. And then when you saw in the polls, the weekend polls, the New York Times Sienna poll and some others, especially in Pennsylvania, the women to men gender gap was 6 points in Pennsylvania. I mean, it just was not really happening. And so that's why I think that commercial, they came out with that and now we're sort of seeing this manifest itself in the results.
- [107:32]
Mike Benz
Mike, I want to ask you about Elon and the game changing moment, him buying X. But folks, quick update again. NBC exit poll, take it with a grain of salt. But I'm telling you, when you see trends like this, come on, you guys know politics. This is looking like a really genuinely shit night for Kamala Harris. There's not one single data point coming in in her favor. NBC. NBC. So we're talking about like straight up Communists here, they had an exit poll. Trump the black vote in Wisconsin. Now Wisconsin, we've only got about 40% of the vote in. It looks good. Not great, but good for Trump. Black vote in Wisconsin for Trump apparently got 20% on the exit polls. Which folks, if that, that number is absolutely game changer. And here's another one in Michigan, kind of making our way around the United States in the swing states. Oh yes, New Hampshire Governor, Republicans win again. Yes, yes. Man, let me tell you something. If we just what they're calling the New Hampton New Hampshire governorship race now, can you imagine if Trump even pulls even remotely close to New Hampshire? Folks, this trend line is really, really bad for Kamal Harris. Wait, the Michigan thing, I don't want to miss out on this. Trump winning 18 to 29 year olds in Michigan by 5%. Again. Julie and I said it over and over, exit polls, take them, go like this, throw them in the garbage. However, trend lines are real. There's not a single data point that's come in that's in this woman's favor. Mike, you are the man on the deep state. He's at Mike Ben Cyber on X massive following. I've known about you forever. You did that Tucker interview. Most viral thing I've seen in a long time. Elon was the game changer for free speech, wasn't he? A guy with the assets to finally take on this big deep state monolith.
- [109:29]
Dan Bongino
Absolutely he was. You know, the difference between Elon and Zuckerberg is really interesting. It's not just the difference between a double digit billionaire in Zuckerberg and a triple digit billionaire in Musk. But Zuckerberg had those misgivings about censorship while he was running Facebook. He said in 2019 that he thought censorship had gone too far on Facebook. But then an operation called Change the Terms was run. Facebook lost $60 billion in market cap in just six weeks. And so Zuckerberg caved and gave the advertisers everything they wanted. When Elon Musk, that same fast came at him, he gave double barrel middle fingers and said gfy. And that's so I think Zuckerberg feels those sort of libertarian free speech principles, but is not willing to sacrifice the financial and business enterprise that he's developed. Whereas Elon Musk, when he, when he was asked during that, that pivotal interview with the, with the advertisers, well, what will you do if X goes bankrupt? What if they actually killed the company? Company. And he says, let them kill the company. The world will watch. And he basically set Himself up practically on the cross, allegorically to say, listen, you can come at me, I may go to jail for this, I may lose Tesla and SpaceX, but I believe in human civilization. I believe in human freedom. And his life purpose is essentially to fight for that. This point. And it was the game changer. It did give bold motivation to Mark Zuckerberg. I think it gave motivation to Jeff Bezos, who just pulled back, you know, the Washington Post editorial and his vow has now vowed to hire conservative writers. I'm not sure that Tim Cook from Apple would have made that call to Donald Trump unless he felt like the tech community coming from Elon Musk and David Sachs and Chamath and the whole Silicon Valley network. All it takes is one break. Person with means to stand up for other people who also have means to say, you know what, if I do this, I'm not going to be alone. I'm going to have this guy who happens to also be the wealthiest person in the world, who happens to also have six different multibillion dollar companies that he's running. So I will at least have a network. And from there, the hub has been built. It has emboldened Congress. There are so many members of Congress who I interact with frequently who talk about how Elon will be able to amplify things.
- [111:49]
Mike Benz
Texas Senate race just called. Ted Cruz going back to the United States Senate. Yes, yes.
- [111:59]
Dan Bongino
And the margin.
- [111:59]
Mike Benz
This is a Tom Hanks moment from Castaway. Look at what we have created. Ted Cruz back to the center. Sorry, Mike, but that's a big one.
- [112:09]
Dan Bongino
And by six points, too. It wasn't even close by.
- [112:11]
Mike Benz
It wasn't even close. And now the Democrats take your money, flush it down the Texas toilet bowl because you lost it. Texans were never going to put a communist in the U.S. senate. No dice on that one. Sorry. Evita, you're up.
- [112:27]
Evita Duffy
No, I need some water. No, no, you're good. Mike, it feels like what you're saying is even if we have some really great results tonight, it's not time to relax, that things are still going to be right, potentially high. If you're in a blue city, how would you suggest people prepare? Say you're in Chicago, Say you're in New York City. Say you're in Washington, D.C. what should people be prepared for? How bad could things get?
- [112:52]
Dan Bongino
Well, people are in blue cities. I mean, the number one thing is to stay alive and stay useful and stay effective. And so in a deep blue city, there are going to be Soros das who will prosecute you for Looking at people sideways. The fact is this was different than in 2020, when there was no exhaust pipe to be able to do political activism. Every time you click the retweet button, you are a journalist publishing an important story. Everything you can do to amplify while staying safe is probably the best thing you can do if you happen to be nestled in Chicago or New York City or the District of Columbia. But you know, to your point about the fight not being over even with the win tonight, I'm going to read something that just came in from the Council and for Foreign Relations an hour ago. Now, just as setting for this, the Council on Foreign Relations is one of the most powerful think tanks in all of Washington. Is this very deep history. If anyone's read Carol Quigley's Tragedy and Hope, it was sort of one of the first blob apparatuses for consensus building between the intelligence community, the State Department and the defense sector, as well as the banks and the corporations. And so just an hour ago, they tweeted, even if Trump, Trump wins the count in the Electoral College, he is still likely to lose the popular vote. And so the more fundamental charge lobbed against him will be that he does not represent the general will of the people. This is the sort of democracy revolution talk that we do when the State Department loses an election in a foreign country and then street protests roll out and they say actually the mob really represents the people. And so if Trump wins the Electoral College, but there still fails the popular vote, you are going to see a stream of headlines similar to what you saw two months ago, arguing the Constitution is invalid. The Constitution is a threat to democracy. We need to switch to a popular vote to represent the people. You could even see that argued on January 6, 2025, as a means to hold up certification of the election.
- [114:47]
Mike Benz
All right, ready for some good news? Who's feeling the love? I would ask 2 thumb and is feeling up this motherfucker right here. I'm feeling good. Right? Seth Keshel, who's a guy we've been following on Twitter a lot, very good political analyst. He's calling North Carolina for Trump. I say I'm in with that guy. North Carolina's gone and Florida's already gone. Ohio's gone. We kind of knew those. But if Eric, Eric Daugherty, who we've been following a lot from Florida Voice News, he's amazing. He's backing up that call, folks. And folks, North Carolina's gone. It's gone. North Carolina's gone for Kamala Harris, not for Us. This is amazing news because it is on now, the east coast, and they can't mess with us. Here's another one. Georgia, 71% of the vote is in Trump, 53. Kamala Harris, 46. Guys, this is not looking good for the Harris campaign. I can't say it enough. I mean this. When you see a trend like this, something magic is happening. I'm hoping at this point we maybe be able to make tonight an earlier call than I was even hoping. I mean, I'm staying around with you for a bit. Don't go anywhere. What do we got? Is that I'm going blind. 468,000 people watching. Get us to 500 more. Kylo freaking renter more. I want five. We got Anita right here, folks. Bring it, bring it. 500,000 people. I want it. I will never. Nothing's ever good enough. And then we want six after that. Julie. So the censorship regime, it's been powerful. Mike, you're big on this too. They have. Really? Listen, I hate. I begrudgingly have to admit they were very smart and savvy the way they did it pre rumble, pre elon, Twitter. I mean, they pretty much owned you. And we were seeing a lot of self censorship, especially during COVID I didn't do that shit. I got kicked off YouTube. I told people masks were bullshit. They sent me some horseshit message. Say it again, we're going to kick you off. So I said it the next day twice, and they kicked me out. But what they did really worked. If Donald Trump were to win tonight and things are looking amazing, please God, I'm not using his name in vain. Do you think it changes things for the better or you think they double down and go absolutely nuclear?
- [117:22]
Julie Kelly
I don't know. I mean, I would defer to Mike on that. So what he's talking about is some of the big tech moguls then now sort of falling in line. So you saw Mark Zuckerberg say very complimentary things about Donald Trump after the assassination attempt and the reporting that some of these big tech titans have been reaching out to Donald Trump, will they take a lesson to see how not just successful Elon Musk is, but influential? Right. I mean, he is an icon now. He is a. He's a legend for free speech in America. So will they start, you know, dragging and kicking coming along with that? I think that some of them are probably reevaluating it.
- [118:01]
Mike Benz
To your point, Mike, what do you make of Julie's point that they're reaching out? We do know Zuckerberg Reached out. Is this all? I don't trust Zuckerberg as far as I can throw him. Is it a big head fake?
- [118:11]
Dan Bongino
Well, Zuckerberg is a risk averse and he did not develop bravery until around October 2023 when he started to actually fire. This was actually not widely reported, but the censorship industry top heavyweights were all top talking about this about a year ago. Zuckerberg was quietly following in Elon's footsteps and remonetizing people on the partnership program there about a year ago. And then it finally came to Jim Jordan, that letter where he effectively said it was the Biden administration's fault that we censored this and we won't comply again. The platforms want the freedom to operate in the free market. They don't want this government coercion forcing them to censor or to not sell products. Like Amazon was effectively forced to not sell COVID 19 heterodox books or children's books by the Biden administration because they need the Biden State Department to fight for them against foreign governments because they need government grants and contracts. So they are all afraid, even though they are left wing. They have, I think become wedged against this particular government because even if they are ideologically aligned on certain things, they have not actually been rewarded as friends for the service they did in censorship. And it's not just Zuckerberg and Elon. Jeff Bezos, Sundar Pichai from Google the only holdout in big tech right now who has not reached out to Donald Trump is actually Microsoft, which is very interesting because Microsoft is ChatGPT. Microsoft is the largest company by market cap in the entire world. And Microsoft, Microsoft acts as the largest multinational corporation, partnerships with the Chinese Communist Party in China, and they actually appear to have an exemption from China's national security law. So the company that's most heavily invested with China happens to be the only one who has not made has not cozied up or at least established diplomatic relations with a potential incoming Trump administration. I'll let folks connect the dots about why that may be, for example. But essentially Microsoft has so much economic interest in a foreign policy alignment that ties NATO to China, whereas Trump's foreign policy is the opposite of that. And so I think that's the reason Microsoft is an outlier and they are very powerful. They work hand in glove with the intelligence services. They're highly active in the National Endowment for Democracies disinformation programs all around the world. That same program has been lobbying the EU for this Digital Services act, which is the Thing that is most likely to be to crush the Elon Musk empire if Harris happens to win tonight. Because that is their big crowbar. American censorship professionals have been saying for a year and a half, for five years actually, but a year and a half they've been screaming it that no matter how bad things get with our losses, no matter how many of our censorship programs get set, get shut down, we will be able to, to use this new, these international censorship laws as a cudgel to force censorship at home. And so that I think is the ace up their sleeve. But if they lose the State Department because they lose the executive branch, the best laid plans of, of sensors and demons, frankly will go awry. So let's pray.
- [121:20]
Mike Benz
476,000 folks. I want to celebrate with 500,000 all. I love you. 476 too. I think it's going to be a really good night. Spread the word. Let's get the 500,000 people. I'm feeling a lot of momentum. Evita, you're up.
- [121:36]
Evita Duffy
I want to ask you about the protections that we need for social media companies. Because the press obviously has constitutional protections. That's kind of why they're able to say whatever they want. I mean they still do what the government wants, but I mean we're allowed to say what we want. And social media companies on their head are really reliant on the government for protections here and even abroad. Do we need a constitutional amendment? How can we stop this in the future?
- [122:00]
Dan Bongino
Stop the.
- [122:02]
Evita Duffy
Stop the government from being able to bully social media companies into censoring content that it dislikes.
- [122:08]
Dan Bongino
With control over the executive branch, it would be surprisingly easy not to take the whole thing out, but to devastate it in effectively a single blow. All you would need is an incoming day one executive executive order that prohibits government grants and contracts to going to any private company or nonprofit entity that engages in domestic disinformation essentially establishes it does what the Supreme Court should have done and said that the funding of censorship by the government is censorship by the government. That EO will allow you to go agency by agency. Department of Defense, Department of State, usaid, dhs, National Science foundation, hhs, cdc, fda. Go through all of them and kill all of those grants and contracts that comprise the censorship industry. There are hundreds of thousands of people now around the world and tens of thousands of people here in the US whose full time, their paychecks, their livelihoods, their mortgages are effectively paid for by doing full time 247 censorship work. These are people this field did not exist eight years ago. It was created after the 2016 election as a response to Trump winning to stop a night like tonight where he might win again. But they don't work for free. It's not a charity business doing censorship. If there's no money, there's no mercenaries, so there's no censorship army anymore. So that's why it's so important we take the White House.
- [123:26]
Mike Benz
Tonight, a little bit of bad news. New Hampshire. We weren't really expected to win, but I was expecting to play a little more competitive in New Hampshire. Apparently, the New Hampshire was called for Kamala Harris with 40% of the vote in. So the trend lines there were not great. However, the governor's race worked out well and a Maryland Senate race, which was going to be a huge reach. Larry Hogan, he's kind of a rhino, but, you know, whatever looks like that race is over. Angela, also Brooks, that was a race that was, that wasn't even second tier. It was third tier. And then producer Jim, who is sitting around, running around, ties off. He's got the black shirt underneath the white collar tie. He's getting ready to roll here. He's going to be in flip flops next. New York Times, of all places, again, we're talking about commies has flipped Wisconsin now to the Trump column. So we'll see what happens. There it is, the New York Times. So we'll see. They have Trump up 0.4 in Michigan and Trump up in PA Trump's odds now in poly market where people are betting their own money is near 80%. That is what I want to hear about you people putting their own money on the line. So again, the trend lines for Kamala Harris are not good. Julie, I would be remiss. My audience is obsessed with this story, like I am of Kamala Harris at the DNC on January 6th. You have been doing immense, immensely good work on this. Just amazing investigative work. Kamal Harris is at the DNC on January 6th. She never wants to talk about it, nobody mentions it. I've always said that the original plan was to put her there, plant this fake bomb, create this big, hey, stop this challenging the vote. There's going to be an attack on Kamala Harris routine. But she's never really admitted why she was there. But you caught something from Simone. Was it Sanders, where she actually slipped and minutes she was there with her.
- [125:22]
Julie Kelly
Right.
- [125:23]
Mike Benz
Have there been any updates on that? And if Trump gets elected, I know you're going to be pushing for that.
- [125:27]
Julie Kelly
Yes, absolutely. So Simone Sanders, who was her communications Director, I think at the time. So January 6, 2021, she's a sitting US senator from California. Incoming Vice President Simone Sanders slipped on CNN a week or so ago and said that she was with Kamala Harris at the DNC and how terrified she was and you know, how traumatized she still is. But that's the only mention from Team Kamala Harris about her whereabouts and her presence at the dnc. Now think about this, Dan. She's doing campaign appearances with Liz Cheney in swing states. No one asks either one of them about the DNC. Now, of course, the January 6th select committee never investigated the pipe bomb threat. They mentioned the pipe bomb five times, only five times in an 837 page report. Never investigated it. Benny Thompson told Representative Tom Massey, no, we never investigated it. I don't know what you're talking about. She has never faced any questions about it. Which leads to of course believing this cover up or that this was part of the setup to initiate what we saw that day. So again, if Donald Trump wins, this is a big part of a larger investigation that has to take place into the events of January 6, why she was there. And of course into the January 6 select committee which has destroyed evidence and now evidence of collusion between Liz Cheney and Cassidy Hutchinson creating, fabricating the testimony that we saw from her in June of 2022. So this is a much bigger scandal. And you know, another great thing about Kamala Harris lost to me, not just the J6ers getting some sort of pardon and some sort of Exoneration is the January 6th narrative completely failed. Think of all the time and energy and money that they put into the insurrection thinking that this was going to destroy Donald Trump and the entire MAGA movement. I mean this was all that they focused on for four years. And if he wins, it will be the biggest humiliation for this concocted hoax narrative that they really thought was going to end the movement and Donald Trump.
- [127:41]
Mike Benz
Julie, I can tell people are really fascinated by the story because we started talking about it. We went to 487,000 and still going up. Timeout, one second. I just want to bring up something, folks. Donald Trump, we did an interview with him on the podcast. I know many of you saw it, but he was kind of enough to sign this baseball. That is his signature right there. It's his smudge on it too. It's probably like his fingerprint or something like that. It is a Dan Bongino baseball. We are auctioning this off. The proceeds go to charity. They do not go to Dan Bongino, if you would like to bid, it is. Thank you, Guy. Bongino.com auction what's the bidding up to? Does anybody know? Hold on. What is it up? The bidding is up to $23,000 for this ball. So if someone has $23,000 and like $1 or something, oh my gosh, 23,000. It goes to Samaritan's Purse. So bongino.com auction hey, listen, it's a one of a kind. If you go to the site, you'll see the video of Donald Trump actually signing the ball. It was an amazing moment. All for a good cause, for charity. I'll let you guys get a drink. We're going to bring you back in a little bit. Bring back Savannah and Adam and keep your eye on some trends and stuff you're seeing too, because I see you. Julie's like in her phone like knee deep. And Mike, if any deep state people call you for whistleblowers, let us know during the break. All right, thanks man. Folks, Bongino document. And one quick favor while you're all here. 492.

Evita, it's been an amazing night. You have a show at our Bongino Report account. Early edition with Evita. Are you feeling a little better now? You were a little kind of hesitant at the beginning of the night to get excited about the race.
- [129:57]
Evita Duffy
I'm feeling a lot better and I'm also feeling good because Wisconsin is leading red. So says some of the polls. So we're happy about that.
- [130:03]
Mike Benz
Yeah, Evita knows Wisconsin well. You probably know her dad, Sean Duffy's great congressman commentator on Fox right now. And to all the McGraw crew here, we love you guys. We got Anita, we got Speak the Truth. We got. We would have loved to have more people folks, but thing filled up so quick. We're at okay, downtown Stewart again. The trend lines are really, really bad right now. Hey, what's that? What's Pennsylvania Senate say? Well, yeah, Pennsylvania senate right now. McCormick's behind a little bit. Any updates first from Eric and the inside crew over there? Nothing right now. I'm looking. Well, here's there's some really strange Numbers looks like he's struggling a little bit in Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania, I'm have, I'm not seeing a lot of definitive stuff on Pennsylvania with everything that I've been looking through. I get some interesting numbers though as far as the popular vote going for Trump, possibly In Queens, New York. Donald Trump has 37% of the vote. Wow. And 26% in the Bronx. That is, it's folks that, that, that is a bananas number. Queens I'm not so shocked about. But the Bronx is a really, really hardcore Democrat area. Portions of that district of course are represented by aoc. So the fact that Trump is even playing there a little bit is, is stunning. At this point it seems it's still too early to call, but Bernie Moreno is leading in his race for Senate in Ohio. So it looks like they've called the race for Senate obviously a long time ago. In West Virginia that puts us at 50. So if we win the presidency tonight, with obviously the Vice President being the president of the Senate and the tie breaking vote, if Donald Trump were to win, we would effectively have taken back to Senate. We've still got the Sheehi race in Montana. That race looks spectacular. Jim's telling us Bernie Moreno is still running very competitive in Ohio. If we could pull those two, then we'd be at 52. I'd, I'd rather get to 54 obviously. I'm a little concerned about McCormick though. I've got some more interesting news on that front too. In Waukesha County, Wisconsin, 77% of the vote is in and Donald Trump and Eric HD have slipped below 60% but they're right about 58.8% and 59 for Hubdy. So both of them are leading with 77% of the vote in by about 20 points in Waukesha County. What's your wall analysis?
- [132:36]
Evita Duffy
Waukesha is important. Waukesha is, is honestly I'm not surprised by that. That was where you had that Christmas, that Christmas parade fiasco where a man drove through because a soft on crime DA installed by Soros allowed this guy out on the street. So I'm not surprised the people in Waukesha are saying no to all of this. These soft on crime policies that we're seeing represented by Democrats. I don't know if that's going to be reflective of the rest of the, of the, of the state though. We have to follow Milwaukee and we have to follow Dane county, which is Madison represented with a lot of young college students who aren't even from the state, but they vote really Left wing.
- [133:12]
Mike Benz
Yeah, yeah, unfortunately they do. I mean, it's one of those, you know, it's like this is why you have to be careful when you see these folks with the election analysis on election nights like tonight, you've got to be careful when the vote, when you're at, say, 60, 70% of the vote in, it's more important where the vote's actually coming from. Like, look, here's a perfect example. This is a huge update. Virginia president right now. Virginia for president. Oh, my gosh, look at this Senate race. Even that's competitive. Sorry, I get distracted. Easy. Which is probably not a good feature to have when you're doing live broadcasting. Virginia for president. Donald Trump is up 1 point. But this is critical. You understand this. If it's the southern part of Virginia we're talking about, rather than the northern part where you have a large grouping of government workers, you could get a big data dump of votes that comes in from northern Virginia that could switch this thing by five points. But the shocker to me is the Virginia Senate race right now. Hung cow. Tim Kaine is within one point. Here we go. Wisconsin is. Man, that is just tight right now. 49. 49 in Wisconsin and Robert Kennedy tried to get off the ballot, but 0.5% of vote. Those are just wasted votes.
- [134:29]
Evita Duffy
That, that is, I think, is that. I think he said Madison was 26. I think that's what it was. Which would be a huge deal if he got at least 25% of the vote in Dane County. That would be great for Trump.
- [134:40]
Mike Benz
Yeah, Wisconsin's going to be huge for us. But really, folks, we could, we could. I don't want to say it. I don't want to say we could call it, but we could have a really early night if the Pennsylvania numbers turn out like I think they're going to turn out. The early voting was really bad. Georgia looks amazing for us. Michigan still too close to call 52, 45. They've only got 14% of the vote in. So don't get too excited about. Until we get about 50% in North Carolina, we. Eric Daughtry made a call on that. You said Jim. Yes. And Seth Keshe. And Seth. So we're going to put North Carolina in the Trump col. Like I said. Ohio out. Pennsylvania is still tight. 34% of the vote in 51, 47. Kamala Donald Trump. But all that matters is where the votes are coming from, folks. Again, don't get, don't get too crazy about the numbers. We got to see where they're coming from Guy, grab me. Adam and Savannah want to get their thoughts on what's going on. Any updates throughout the night. So we're going to keep our eyes on this throughout the night. 495,000, man. If we can break 500, it'll be like, I'm telling you, man, I'm ready to do more Kylo Ren. We just need a few more. Looks like Colorado is going to obviously go. They called that Colorado is going to go for Kamala Harris. That was going to be a big stretch. State kind of up there with New Mexico. Not a big shocker there, but I'm watching a number of pivotal House races there as well. In Colorado, Lauren Boebert and others. It's not obviously you've got all the House seats on the ballot. Update. If you missed it before Connecticut went for Kamala Harris, no big surprise there. So right now, what's the tally? 195 to 117. Donald Trump, 195. Harris 117. The trend lines are really good, folks. Really, really, really good. So. So I've been looking at these numbers all night and the one thing that's been clear throughout the entire country in all of these races, she is not performing anywhere near what Biden performed in 2020. She is way underperforming him. So even though they're calling these races like they called Virginia for. They called Virginia already for Harris. The margins are so, so close. Did they call Virginia? They called Virginia. I didn't see that. I mean, okay, but that's probably. And they called North Carolina for Trump. Oh, they did. Okay, good. Well, that does with the Florida race is just Florida. 95% of the vote in. In Florida. Folks. This is such a trouncing in my home state of Florida, 56 to 42. Rick Scott won by. Won by almost the same amount, 55.7 to 40 that the state of Florida. I think we can officially pull out of the swing state category. Georgia update. 79% of the vote in. In Georgia. Donald Trump, 52. Kamala Harris, 47. That looks terrific. Illinois called for Kamala Harris. No big shocker there. 56, 42. I'm actually surprised that wasn't worse. And again, Wisconsin, 30% of the voting in 50 to 47. Depends where the vote is coming from. Indiana called for Trump. No surprise there. So now we're just waiting, folks, for the rest of the night as this stuff comes in. Indiana governor called for Mike Braun. No big surprise there. The Republican, 55, 40. Pretty much a route. In that case. I Don't think anyone expected Indiana to go to Kamala Harris, folks. That was an obvious one. Indiana Senate Jim B. Banks is going to be your new senator there. So that's great. And Iowa, 21% of the vote in. Remember that seltzer poll, comma 5246, right? Yeah. I mean it's 20 something percent of the vote. We don't know who it is.
- [138:33]
Evita Duffy
But folks that see exit poll that Trump is making double digit gains with Latino voters.
- [138:40]
Mike Benz
Double. From NBC.
- [138:42]
Evita Duffy
From NBC.
- [138:43]
Mike Benz
Remember folks, she is running out of Runway at this point. There has gotta be some. They played the identity politics game. They partitioned people up into voting blocs, young voters, black voters, Hispanic voters. They needed to hit certain numbers and they're not hitting them anywhere at this point. So it's really, the trend lines are really, really positive for Donald Trump. I don't want to get too excited about anything, however, in advance because you know, that's how you kind of get disappointed. Louisiana Trump up huge this point, 66 to 32 and still stuck at 195. 117. Yes, please.
- [139:25]
Evita Duffy
There's all these black pillars. There are a little less of them tonight, but they were all weak saying even if Trump wins, his administration is going to be terrible, the personnel is going to be bad, it's going to be run by all the same deep staters that always run our government. What would be your response to the black pillars who are negative even if Trump does really well tonight?
- [139:46]
Mike Benz
I don't buy it. You know, when I spoke to Donald Trump privately and it's not often I don't like name dropping because that's all bullshit and you sound like a moron. We're almost there. By the way. 498, which is really awesome. He made it crystal clear to me multiple times that, that he trusted people who had experience with government the first time. Because the best part about the Trump campaign originally, which you all know, was that he was an outsider. But there is a downside to being an outsider and it's that you're an outsider. You don't know much about government. So he has told me repeatedly and other people. I'm not the only one. He may have even said in the interview when he was on the radio show that he took advice from people inside the government and they led him astray. He doesn't need that advice anymore. He knows who the turkeys are. And I agree with you. We a personnel problem is absolutely going to sink us. But I don't think he's going to make that mistake. I'm a matter of fact, I'm what, 490. Look at that counter on the screen. Let's do it. I feel like New Year's Eve. But I don't think he's going to make that mistake again. I've heard it from him. I think a second Trump term is going to be a huge asset because. Because he already understands where all the bodies are buried. He understands the process. And I don't think it's going to. I don't think he's going to make that same mistake again. I'm almost positive.
- [141:03]
Evita Duffy
Well, that's not true. And I think we should. We should tweet out. I'm going to. I'm going to tweet it out right now because the black pillars are very annoying.
- [141:13]
Mike Benz
Here is the one thing I am worried though. Almost there, folks. Come on, 499. We are almost a 500,000 with will melt the freaking Internet. Well, I never thought we'd get to 500,000. Even guy who is like the most negative Nancy's like no way down. No way. 500. If we can break 500,000. Oh, no. Come on. We got the other way. It's a man. I'm ready to log on myself. Here's the one thing I am worried about with the personnel issue. Here's the old. Here's. What's that? That 200 for what? Hey, how's the auction looking by the way? Bongino.com auction for the Trump sign Baseball. Here's the one thing I'm worried about with the personnel. We had Brian Mast on before the congressman. No way. No, we didn't. There it goes. There it goes. 500, folks. I told you. Kyle G. The restaurant owner. I said, kyle, if we hit 500,000, bring the special tequila over. He was kind enough to do it. He remembered 500,000. I say this is for you, but this is really for me. Kyle. Make sure you make sure. Come on, Kyle. To pour his head making it extra heavy. There we go. There we go. All right. Well, there you go. You got to do it with me. All right. All right. Deal. All right. We're going to Cheers, folks. This is real. This is not electrolyte water. I promise you to Kyle G. 500,000 to the listening audience.
- [142:55]
Evita Duffy
Left me to ring.
- [143:01]
Mike Benz
Damn, that was good. Thank you, bro brother. Thank you, man. Bye, man. Thank you at home for getting it. This is going to be a much better show from this point out. I promise you. After me guzzling a double shot of tequila. I Feel really bad, by the way, because Justin's here and his parents are here, and I'm setting a terrible example. I love Justin's parents. I met them at church. I met them first. Justin, do not drink. It is very bad for your liver. I tell him that all the time. Justin's wonderful parents are right over there. They were always volunteering at the church. And I feel like Father Marty's watching right now, and he's like, you can't be drinking tequila. I'm sorry. I will go to confession on Monday. You look. What do we got here? First, Seth Keshel. Georgia Trump called. Whoa. All right, folks. So Keshel, who is a really great analyst we've been following on Twitter, he is calling this thing for Donald Trump. Hey, I'm zoned in. I'm like, why is my head cut off on the screen? Because I zoomed in 503,000, folks. Georgia, North Carolina, Trump column. Florida, obviously. Trump column. Ohio, Trump column. Now, right now, if. If we were to get an early call. If we were to get an early call, would have to come from Pennsylvania at this point. If. I'm telling you now, if he wins Pennsylvania, and with Georgia effectively out of the Harris column and North Carolina done at this point, there is simply no math going forward. So right now, it's not all about Pennsylvania. We have multiple paths. We have Michigan. We are running super competitive in Wisconsin. Wow, look at this. The Calce betting markets. Thank you. Calce sponsored the show. It is a. You can bet on the outcome in the presidential election. Justin just put up on the screen the Kelsey betting markets, where people are putting their own cheese, their own cheddar on the line. Now have Donald Trump at 81 to 19%. 81 for Donald Trump. I think I just burped on the air after that, but that's okay. It's not like the Howard Stern show. But after that shot, a double shot in 1942, I think I'm feeling a whole lot better. It was a good one, right, Kyle? You didn't forget, brother. And make sure if you're ever in Stewart, you hook up my boy Kyle G. Go to Kyle G's restaurant. Go to Oak and Ember. It's a great crowd. Hey, can we get a little view of the crowd? Because these guys are really awesome. I want to make sure you see. Oh, good. Did you hook up that 1942 I got you? That's my guy, Steve. We drank after. I got. After I got done with all my medical treatment, Steve and I drank a whole bottle in 1942 and Claretta's that time. Remember that? I'm sorry it happened. I would love to tell you otherwise, but it really did happen. All right, 500 5000. I never thought it'd still be going out, but it's still going up. So polls will soon be closing in Nevada. So Nevada was looking very good in the early voting. However, I never get too excited about Nevada. And we had. Who was it? Robert Cahaly on from Trafalgar. Kahele was a little bit more kind of like, hey, be careful with Nevada. They've got a really, like, hardcore Democrat turnout machine. Nevada's got six electoral college votes, not a huge electoral college load. But, folks, I mean, let's be candid here. The trend lines are obviously, again, not going in Kamala Harris's direction. North Carolina down, Georgia down. Waiting to see what's up with Pennsylvania. Yes. Holy. No way. Kalshi. The betting market, I just say K A L S H I now has Donald Trump at 85% chance to win people their own money. This could be where, man, I'm telling you. I have wanted to celebrate for so long, folks. Hey, a little more celebration. I do. Give it to me, brother. 20 for. Of the vote in. In New Mexico. Trump, 50. Harris, 48. In New Mexico. In New Mexico. Who's the one who told you? Who called New Mexico? I don't know. He looks like Dan Bongino, though, in my book. So I remember I told you if there was. If there was going to be a surprise. It's New Mexico now, Evita. It's not done. Only 20% of the vote. And you got to be careful where the vote's coming from. Is it coming from the city? Cities? But man, that tequila hit me quick. Yeah, this may be a different show from this point on. Is there a doctor here with an eye? Yes. Steve Adler, you got your Myers cocktail. Okay, you may have to juice me up with that Myers cocktail in a little bit. You sit down to that double right here. He's got a metal case. He like, breaks with him. You know, I. Listen, man, I, I am. I feel like there's been this bottled up excitement and nothing's over. I. I know you know that. I know that. I don't want to get crazy or anything like that, but I feel like for the last three and three quarters years. I know you feel this way too, but Evita, I'll ask you first. I feel like we've really gotten our next step done. The censorship, Covid. I mean, no one was A bigger warrior on Covid than you. I mean, you were like, this is bullshit. You fought your school. No, you are. I mean, for a young but super mature lady, for your, you are like, I'm not taking this shit. I feel like we just. The midterms weren't great. I almost feel like we need this. It's like, it's not even like a nice habit. It's like a must have. Like, we need this and it'll reinvigorate the movement. If we can pull this thing out.
- [148:37]
Evita Duffy
Tonight, I do too. Dan. And the censorship post 2020 happened immediately. My friend John Daniel Davidson, he wrote an article about how strange things were, how strange the results were in the middle of the night in Michigan and in Wisconsin, he wrote an article about it. And that night it was throttled on, like, every single social media platform. So we saw immediately the censorship. January 6th. There was a trauma after January 6th, when all of a sudden, you had Donald Trump booted off of every single platform. It was unprecedented. The President of the United States. And then, of course, yeah, you had the COVID cross craziness, you had the censorship. Then we had the Twitter files expose how crazy everything was. And I think that this would be the biggest f you to the regime controlled media. To everyone.
- [149:20]
Mike Benz
I don't mean interrupt. I have a big announcement for everyone. I want you all to know that you are part of something very special tonight. I just got a text message from the CEO of Rumble, Chris Pavlovsky, who is watching the live stream charts in live time. You are now part of the biggest live stream in the world. Number one.

Mike Benz

And the fact that Rumble right now is the home of the number one live stream in the world is so much. I know you guys. I believe you guys believed in me. And I'm gonna tell you, man, we needed this, man. I needed it so bad.

Dan Bongino

Mike Benz
Man, we've been through so much. You know, between the freaking cancer and all this getting our dicks kicked in with his censorship and his Covid. Put this stupid mask on and then stick this needle in your arm and all this. And then Parlor gets the platform, and then everybody's boycotting every thing we say. I mean, man, I never thought it would come to this, man. I wouldn't. And now we got 500,000 people. We filled up five freaking football stadiums over again because you all are fighting for free speech. And we're watching one of the greatest nights in political history materialize before our eyes. I know you did, brother. I know you did, man. This guy, my doctor friend, I love this guy. Bongino army is real to us, so no shit. Quick update on the electoral count first.

Anita, we have the great, the legendary Anita McGroin here. I would like personally, because I'm having such a good time tonight. I would like. Do you Know where I'm going with this?

- [156:42]
Dan Bongino
Put him on for you.
- [156:43]
Evita Duffy
Dan, do you think that.
- [156:44]
Mike Benz
Oh, he's still going through a lot of stuff. Timeout, degrade. Evita Duffy has a question.
- [156:48]
Evita Duffy
I do have a question. Do you think that Joe Biden voted for Donald Trump?
- [156:56]
Mike Benz
Who out there thinks Joe Biden voted for Donald Trump? You know what, folks? Seriously, I don't think Joe Biden actually voted. I get the question. It's kind of fun. I don't think Joe Biden actually voted for Donald Trump. But I'm telling you candidly, from the bottom of my heart, I have zero doubt that Joe Biden is sitting in the White House right now. Oatmeal brains. And he's like, language alert. If you're watching at home, my daughter Isabel's watching. Isabel, please tune out. Joe Biden right now is like, fuck these motherfuckers. They kicked me out of the race. I don't give a shit if she loses or not. Not. I don't think she voted for him. But look at. Producer Mike sent us tonight. Congratulations, man. Effing a producer. Mike, we miss you. You know we love you, but someone had to handle the show. There's my daughter texting me. My daughter Isabelle says, so much more interesting than the news. I love you, girl. Thank you so much. And we're trying to put on the best show possible. Listen, we're going to get you the updates as soon as we get him. Gee, Savannah. And let's get Adam and Savannah some more time. They came out, they were nice enough to come out. But hey, where's Toby? Come on over a second, folks. I want to give you an interesting perspective on Florida politics because what happens in Florida is happening nationwide. This is a friend of mine, he is a Florida state representative, Toby Oberdorf. How are you man? So, so you guys have a super majority in the state of Florida. And the Democrats hilariously at the beginning of the night were hoping to make a huge dent into that. How do you think that's working out for Democrats in Florida? So they had this great strategy. They were going to run somebody against every single rep in the state of.
- [158:41]
Adam Gillette
Florida, spread their resources out.
- [158:43]
Mike Benz
I mean this is friggin idiotic what they did. What happens. Florida just gained an additional seat for the Florida House. We now have a super, super majority and we are going to be running through the state.
- [158:54]
Steve Crowder
I got to tell you, Dan, some.
- [158:55]
Mike Benz
Of your policies, some of the things that you brought forward, you could write the bills for the state of Florida. You have done some great work and.
- [159:02]
Steve Crowder
You and I have talked back and forth.
- [159:03]
Adam Gillette
You would say something on your show.
- [159:04]
Steve Crowder
And be like, dan, we just did that in Florida.
- [159:06]
Mike Benz
Dan, we just did that in Florida. I know, over and over. And you have a supermajority. So the Democrat, this is kind of like the reverse California. Like they're feckless. But the difference is, Toby, state rep from Florida, as you know, people are leaving California, but they're coming here. I mean you and I live in Martin county. Obviously you're a representative here. And I've all, you've been here longer than me. I've only lived here 10 years. But they've had to expand roads. I mean this place is just filling up because everybody wants to be here. Well, it's the policies, the policies we lay out.
- [159:39]
Steve Crowder
People are saying we want those policies.
- [159:41]
Adam Gillette
It's a roadmap for really what America is, is we have, we have freedom. We're now the 14th largest economy in the entire world.
- [159:49]
Mike Benz
We have the ability to have school.
- [159:50]
Adam Gillette
Choice across, across our entire state here.
- [159:53]
Mike Benz
Why wouldn't you want that? And an opportunity also to get a great job not just by going to.
- [159:57]
Steve Crowder
College, but by also going ahead and.
- [159:59]
Mike Benz
Getting skills training, all those types of things.
- [160:01]
Adam Gillette
We now have it in Florida.
- [160:02]
Mike Benz
Again, a roadmap for our entire country.
- [160:05]
Evita Duffy
Yeah, much. I mean the Democrats in the state of Florida rank just like they did nationally on abortion. Right? We're going to. We're going to have women have the right to choose. And then you saw this great victory for pro lifers tonight. Did you expect that?
- [160:20]
Steve Crowder
So we figured that the Amendment 3 and Amendment 4 would both fail. I mean, we saw that. And basically because it was the Amendment.
- [160:28]
Mike Benz
4 was so far out there and basically saying, look, we can have an abortion all the way up to birth.
- [160:33]
Steve Crowder
That's not something that people wanted to have.
- [160:36]
Mike Benz
And obviously that's shown in the, in the polls tonight. Toby, you know, you. This is. How many terms is this for you? This would be my final term. We have term limits in Florida concept. This is your second. So you've kind of seen the evolution of Florida from a traditionally swing state where I'm, again, I've only been here 10 years. Sure. Let's be honest. If you won Florida by one point, it was a landslide. I mean, it was so tight here. Rick Scott has no idea what to.
- [161:01]
Steve Crowder
Do tonight because he just won by nine, 10 points.
- [161:04]
Mike Benz
He usually wins all this money. These goop balls wasted all this money. But you've seen the evolution of Florida. My opinion. I'd love to get your thoughts. Trump started it. He definitely started a trend in Florida. You saw it in the boat parades in 2016. Ron DeSantis took that football and ran with it. I mean, ran up massive margins. Miami Dade, Broward, Blue County. And now you see Donald Trump tonight. And I mean, let's just be candid. There's no way to call it. It's just an atrocity for the Democrats. I think at this point, you just got to chalk Florida up to, like, it's just a red state. Florida is no longer a swing state.
- [161:42]
Steve Crowder
Florida is solidly Republican.
- [161:44]
Mike Benz
We'll see that for eons from here forward. Absolutely. Hey, congratulations.
- [161:49]
Steve Crowder
Thank you so much.
- [161:50]
Mike Benz
You've done some great stuff. Congratulations on 500,000. I know. I can't believe it, man. It's 500,000. That's fantastic. We were the biggest live stream in the world. I love it. I love it. Yeah, you're in the right spot. All right. Thanks for coming. I'm looking forward to calling our new president our old president, whatever it may be. Come on. So, absolutely, Pennsylvania is where it's at. I hear you. Thanks, brother. We appreciate it. Pennsylvania, folks. Pennsylvania is where it's at right now. If we can knock off Pennsylvania, the math is simply. And it's not good for them. Donald Trump's strategy of focusing on east coast elections in the last few days of the campaign, turns out it looks like at this point of the night, if things go like I think they're going to go, turns out to be genius. Welcome back to the set. Adam and Savannah. Adam Gillette from Accuracy and Media, Savannah Hernandez. Savannah has her own show on Rumble. Correct. Sam says Savannah is supremely talented. You want to see more Savannah on the show? I know I do. It's great, right? Didn't I ask you a long time ago about Savannah?

Evita Duffy
He said, who are some of the great commentators? The Gen Z Kai said Savannah Hernandez, she was a no brainer.
- [163:03]
Mike Benz
Amazing. I'm trying to bring you the best people. Sorry, my eyes are getting glassy. That tequila shot hit old Danny Botts hard. But I'm feeling pretty good tonight. So screw it. We're going for you. Probably can't do this on network or cable television, but on my show, we do whatever we want. This is why you watch election coverage here with us. Savannah, your feeling on how things are going? Still too early to call from the networks. Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. They're not calling North Carolina and Georgia. Our show's calling it based on our sources. North Carolina, Georgia for Trump. Still too early to call though, in Nevada, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania. Your thoughts on where this thing is going?
- [163:41]
Savannah Hernandez
You know what, I know that Scott Pressler has been on the ground in Pennsylvania and he's done a lot of really good work trying to get voters registered and get people active there. So I'm hoping that we can take Pennsylvania. That's the state that I've been focused in on all night. Wisconsin and Michigan. I don't know if I'm as hopeful about, but I feel like if we can flip Pennsylvania, we'll be good. So I don't know. I'm feeling positive. I'm excited again. I feel like the energy tonight is incredible and it's different than 2020. I feel like it really is. So I'm excited to see what ends up happening.
- [164:12]
Mike Benz
You know, Adam, you know, listen, I've made some good calls and bad calls in politics. Predictions, like I said before, everybody's got one. They're meaningless right now. It's election. Who cares about anyone's damn predictions? Means nothing. However, this just Savannah's correct. This does kind of feel different in 2016. You saw this where there was like endless tidal wave of good news and the trend went in a good direction. I've said now for the thousandth time, probably to the chagrin of my, by the way, we're over 500,000 again. How the hell is that 500,000 again? But it just feels like Kamala Harris is running out of potential good news. You know, like every opportunity she had has kind of been closed off that way. Two weeks ago, when the, you know.
- [164:59]
Adam Gillette
The excitement over, hey, we got a candidate that isn't a geriatric guy who needs to be put in a home. What do you think, America? Ever since then, it's been an increasingly difficult day for Kamala Harris. When I was last up here, we were talking about emotional pain. I saw a report from the New York Times saying Trump is now likely to win the popular vote. Imagine the emotional pain inflicted upon the New York Times Twitter guy who had to sit there and write that out. The guy's currently got a cyanide tablet in his mouth. He's contemplating his life decisions.
- [165:28]
Mike Benz
Let me follow up on that, you know, and I'll ask you, Savannah, next. It's not good enough for us to win. We need a mandate. Because if you give them an excuse, they'll take it. And the popular vote is their excuse. I can see it already where they're going to say, even if Donald Trump folks were to win a route in the electoral college, if you give the communists left an avenue, they'll take it. And what they're going to say is, well, the majority of the country didn't want Donald Trump and they're gonna probably impeach him on day one. We need a mandate. It's why I told people, vote early and run up the tally. I don't want to hear shit, oh, I'm in California. I don't care. Run up the score. More, more, more. The mandate is important. It sends a message and an important one.
- [166:11]
Adam Gillette
Well, I think regardless of how it goes down, they're gonna have an excuse. There's no scenario that results in them saying, shoot, you got us this time. I guess you guys get to do what you want for two years. That's never going to happen. But if you can minimize their excuses in such a way that the American people realize even more so, the people in the media are full of shit. And this is reality. The more we can separate Americans understanding from what they hear from ABC and from what reality is, the better off we'll be.
- [166:37]
Mike Benz
Savannah, your thoughts on that? The mandate. And just to follow up, Adam brought up the media. The mandate for the media is important because it gives the media no messaging. Wait, one quick thing, folks. Wisconsin, 46% of the vote in Trump is now ahead 49.4 to 49.1. I'm holding out any judgment, but I'd rather be ahead than behind. Wisconsin, obviously way too close to call at this point, but again, not looking great for Kamala Harris, who was hedging a lot of bets. Almost Wisconsin, folks. Keep your eye on it. They may wind up calling their race before Pennsylvania. Savannah, your thoughts on that? On the mandate, the media will have no messaging vehicle at all if Trump is even remotely close in the popular vote. They called us all Nazis. Half the country can't be Nazis and fascists.
- [167:32]
Savannah Hernandez
Absolutely, Dan. And that's what it needs to be. We've all been saying that this election needs to be too big to rig, and that's exactly what it needs. Needs to be right. Every single American really needs to show up, stay in line if your polling location is still open and make your voice heard because absolutely, I can foresee the next four years of prosperity, the next American renaissance, if you will, the golden era under Donald Trump. It's so close that we can taste it and I'm so excited about it. But you're right, if Donald Trump does get into office, we are going to be facing a huge battle from the left wing. We know that they're going to have tantrums. We know that they're going, going to come at everybody with law fare. And it's going to be, it's going to be insane because that's what the left wing is. But, you know, I think I'm just feeling so positive about this right now and I'm hoping that America shows up and has our voices heard. And I think we will after what we've been doing.
- [168:22]
Mike Benz
I'm going to turn it over to you. I'm sorry. Just folks, for the listeners at home, I just got a really, really amazing text. I just want to share with you because it's really important to me. When I was an instructor at the Secret Service Academy, one of the students was, we'll call him Joe. For now, I don't want to give up his name. He was an Afghanistan war veteran and he was a great guy, but he was very quiet. And one day out of the blue, I was doing my Fox show. And about two days before the show was going to air, I used to tape on Friday, the Fox show. It was about a Wednesday. Joe sent me an email about, you know, why he was so quiet. And he sent me an email about the experience of combat veterans in Afghanistan and what the pink mist was when his men blew up in front of him. And I read that email on my show unfiltered on Fox. I read the whole thing and there were people that were deeply Moved by that. So tonight on what looks right now to be a really amazing night for America, I want to send a hat to you. Just texted me. So, Joe, you know your own name. I want to thank you for your service. And I just want to tell you, like, your email really deeply impacted me because a lot of these guys who come home with no physical injuries come home with a lot of injuries upstairs from things they've seen that they. So you don't have to. And I want to thank every person who served tonight. I don't. I don't care who you voted for. I really don't. I just care that you served, and I want to thank you so much. And, Joe, I got your text. He just said to me what a great live show, brother. Love you, man. Lf. Lfg. God bless you, man. Changed my life a lot, whether you know it or not. Sorry, Evita. Oh, wait. Quick update before we go to Evita from Jim, who is running around the room. He has now burned about 3,000 calories on his order ring or whatever. What is that? So two sources from Jim, Wisconsin. 95% of the vote in. You ready? You better be ready. Wow, look at this. The first and quietest it's been all night. Kind of freaking me out a little bit. Trump, 56, Harris, 43. It ain't looking good. I'm sorry, Evita.
- [171:04]
Evita Duffy
No, that's a. That's awesome news. No, but I was going to ask you, Savannah, and then actually, anybody. It felt like the strategy this entire cycle for Kamala was to bring in all these celebrities, right? And even people who were associated with P. Diddy, who was in this, like, horrible sex trafficking scandal. You had JLo, you had Oprah last night saying that the vote would cease to exist in the future if Trump's elected. How has a celebrity.
- [171:32]
Savannah Hernandez
How.
- [171:32]
Evita Duffy
How was the celebrity route played out for Kamala? Do you think that it's really backfired? And if so, why?
- [171:39]
Savannah Hernandez
Well, I think that it's backfired because, again, the celebrities that endorse and support Kamala Harris are elitists. Right? And that's what the Trump campaign has been the opposite of this entire time. And it's why that campaign or his campaign has resonated with the American people. When you see all of these celebrities coming forward and talking about abortion, when that truly, I do not feel is the top priority for the average American who can't even afford food or gas, who's dealing with the housing crisis, who's dealing with record inflation, I mean, under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Our country has been quite abysmal and we are so far away from American greatness. And I feel like, you know, the celebrities, the celebrity endorsements can't cover that up. The average person is tired of being told by these people that have no idea what they've been going through that they should vote for a candidate who by the way, doesn't have any policy. Right. Who has been covered for by the media, who had a 1%, what popularity rate when she did run for president back in 2020. Nobody likes Kamala Harris and no celebrity endorsement is going to make us like her.
- [172:44]
Mike Benz
Sorry, a little bit of, I don't want to call it bad news, but you're familiar with Virginia, Maryland politics pretty well. Hung Kao, who was an amazing candidate for Senate out of Virginia. The race is still close, but most of the networks are calling it for the Democrat. Innocent. Bad news. We lost. You always want to get those second third tier races. That was going to be a huge stretch over Tim Kaine, who was Hillary Clinton's vice presidential candidate. But it appears that Virginia is going to be lost to us folks. No one really expected Virginia. Everything else is going in our direction. Of course, it wasn't going to be, you know, every single state was going to, it wasn't going to be a Ronald Reagan like landslide. But Hong Kong, he ran a great campaign there in Virginia. I mean, his debate performances were amazing.
- [173:31]
Adam Gillette
Well, consistently in Virginia, they surprise us with great Republican performances where they lose far narrowly or far closer races than you thought they would have been. I think it was eight years ago where the Republican was thought to have no chance and all of a sudden did a great job before narrowly losing. And well, obviously they're not going to get the Senate race, not going to get the gubernatorial race that can contribute to a popular vote victory because it's still an incredibly populous state.
- [173:54]
Mike Benz
And Savannah, I've explained to the audience repeatedly that electing President Trump without a Republican House or a Senate and it looks really good. We're going to hold the House. We had Congressman Brian Mast on before indicates we may add a few seats. We'll see the House race, I'm really kind of worried about the presidency. Right. But we need them all. But having a President Trump with a Democrat House, he's going to get impeached on day one. They're just going to make it up like piracy on the open seas or something and make up some fictitious, you know, felony and try to throw him in jail again. We need the Senate in The House.
- [174:30]
Savannah Hernandez
Oh, absolutely. I mean, look at everything that he went through from 2016 to 2020. Look at what they're still putting him through to this day. Again, the weaponization of all of our intelligence agencies, of our judicial system has been, quite frankly, a slap in the face to the American people. And you're completely right. And I've thought about this too. It's like we really do need to make sure that we sweep this because Donald Trump is going to be so hindered and he's going to be so handicapped if the Democrats do take the House. So hoping and praying that we are able to do that and have an effective government that works for the people. I mean, Donald Trump right now, he has created this dream team, right? Of if they Ramaswamy, Elon Musk, RFK Jr. Tulsi Gabbard. Like, imagine having all of those people plus a Republican House and Senate. I mean, America would be unstoppable. Okay? It would be again, the next American.
- [175:17]
Evita Duffy
Renaissance, if you will, until Gabbard, RFK there, even Tucker Carlson, I think, is going to be part of the transition team if Trump does win. And there's a real anti war element to Trump. I mean, he's somebody, he's kind of revolutionary in that way, changing the Republican Party into a pro peace movement. Really. Do you think that that is really going to be a driving factor for young people this cycle? Because, I mean, we're the drafting age. Women could potentially be drafted in the future as well. Do you think that the war issue, Kamala not having a plan for Ukraine, Kamala not having really a plan for the Middle east either, is playing a role in what we're seeing tonight.
- [175:56]
Savannah Hernandez
Young men specifically go out and vote because these are the young men that are going to be drafted, right? These are the young men whose lives are on the line as a direct result of the warmongers that are currently in Congress, the warmongers that are currently in our government. So if young men, you know, went out today, had their voices heard, then I do think that we will see a very positive impact in terms of, you know, things swaying more Republican. What do you think?
- [176:21]
Adam Gillette
I don't think it's very likely in our lifetimes we're going to see a drag draft instituted. And I think it's not a motivating factor for most voters, if I'm honest. I think people look at the economy, they look at immigration, they look at the border. I do think for many women, abortion is a big major issue. I don't think many people sit there and say, shoot, I gotta vote for Trump, because otherwise I'm gonna be out there fighting the chicoms in Taiwan. What is more terrifying, though, is their cultural advances. The alliance of the Marxists and Islamists that now battle us and everywhere, except thankfully, as of now, the actual, actual front lines of warfare. And those are the areas where I think many people do get more concerned.
- [176:54]
Mike Benz
Savannah, do you ever think you'd see in your lifetime the Republican Party becoming the party of sensible foreign policy? I mean, I'm not trying to be a dick about it, folks. I'm just saying, like, the Republican Party's been dominated. I know, Evita, it's a big issue with you because we talk about it, you know, in the studio all the time. Time we win the John Bolton party. It's like there isn't a country bomb. Like, there was always like a bomb for every. It was like a, you know, what was it? Was it a turkey for a chicken for every pot? It was like a bomb for every country. And it's like this shift in the political culture where the Republican Party has now become the party where people who have this more sensible foreign policy, you say, well, I don't want to divorce ourselves from the world. That's stupid. We got. We need sea lanes. We, you know, we have to have open sea lanes. We obviously have interests around the world, but we don't need to bomb every country on planet Earth at a moment. So do you ever see in your lifetime, like, us becoming a party of essentially, what was the hippies in the 60s? Like, the weirdest thing.
- [177:58]
Savannah Hernandez
It's. It's an interesting transition, but I think that it's a very necessary and great thing for our country. And I'm glad that we've gotten to a point where we realize maybe we shouldn't be funding both sides of, you know, these foreign wars and that we shouldn't be sacrificing our men overseas and putting them at risk. I think that it's been such an incredible thing, such an incredible movement. And, you know, it's kind of funny that you mentioned that too, because my grandfather fought in the Vietnam War. He kind of talked to me about what it was like coming back home and, you know, just that experience. And yeah, it has been so different to see now the Republican Party just so anti war, really pushing this message of peace and unity and of finally being the big brother of the world. Right. That instead of like provoking other countries is like, let's actually calm down here and push for world peace, if you will.
- [178:46]
Mike Benz
Well, here's no shocker. Kansas for Donald Trump. That's great news, but I don't think anybody realistically expected Kansas. If Kansas went for Kamala Harris again, I'd be wrapping it up for the night. Jim, you look like you got some. Mike. Wisconsin numbers are now only at 49% reporting. It's a tight race with Trump still in the room. Oh, 49% reporting. Okay. Jim's correct that you had 95%. Correction, 49 Trump's. And the 95 was correct. But then. Okay, well, that's important. No, that's all right. With corrections are no problem. I mean, it's a live show. We're going to do that again. Kansas going for Donald Trump. No big surprise there. So there's a rumor, Michael's telling me here he happens to be married to Evita. I don't know if you know that, which is great. It makes for, like, this great work arrangement where they can, like, do the show. And Michael's like, they can do the show. They could do show prep, like, at night. They don't have to worry about any, like, work hours. Michael, there's a rumor out there. Steven Crowder wants to come back on the show. Is that correct? Okay, so wait, I didn't expect you to have him, like, back on show right now. I was just kidding. Like, I thought. Wait, I can't hear him yet. As always, there's like some kind of. All right, hold on one second while we unfuck the audio issue there. But yeah, can you give me a thumbs up if you can hear me? I can't hear him. And juice me up a little bit because last time. Yeah, wait, I don't hear him. He can't hear me. But we'll figure it out. Oh, now I hear you called and.
- [180:15]
Steve Crowder
Now we're waiting on those swing states.
- [180:16]
Mike Benz
Wait, turn me up more. But I definitely hear you, Steve. I just can't wait to hear what Nebraska has to say. Yes, now I definitely hear bills. I have a lot of plant chaos right now on what we're doing. We have options. But I thought Bongino was going to us after his guest, so I don't know. No, we're going to you right now with the guest still on the panel. We lost his audio. We had it. I. We didn't change anything on.
- [180:38]
Steve Crowder
Look, there's been enough states called for Donald Trump to finish your drink, if the hell's the difference.
- [180:43]
Mike Benz
You saw me drinking, by the way. I'm back on the wagon. So can he hear me or not? Okay. All right, well, we'll unscrew that thing. My poor daughter's listening to me. She's like, yeah, this is the most entertaining thing. I'm sorry, man. I'm just, like, going all out tonight. I'm not in the mood for any, like, bullshit. I want nothing but positive vibes tonight. I'm feeling really good about tonight, probably because of the multiple shots of tequila. But, folks, this is again, if you're Kamala Harris and they're on the betting side right now. You, Justin, do you have a couch update for us on the betting site? What's it got Donald Trump at right now? Because that's all I care about. People putting their own cheese down on Kalsi. The betting site. K a L S H I K. The betting site has Donald Trump right now where people put their own cheese in the game there has Donald Trump at. I see what you did there.
- [181:39]
Dan Bongino
8.
- [181:40]
Mike Benz
How do you guys have sound? The soundboard, too. Where's my Frank Fugazi head? They have Donald Trump at 88% Cali. We just gave a shout out to the great Frank Fugazi. Hat tip to you, Frank. He's probably melting down right now. Who did that? Who put the Fugazi sounder? Dude, that was. There you go. Of course, that was Gee's favorite right now, man. We're still holding at a solid and 490,000. And again, a big thank you. We were the number one live stream in the world. The Dan Bongino show. Thank you to the Bongino army. We love you guys. We're going to try to get Steve Crowder back up again as we mess with the screen over there. Too early to call for the networks. By the Missouri Senate. Wait, one quick one. Not a big shocker. Josh Hawley. Thank you. Josh Hawley wins again. Montana called for Donald Trump. Hey, this is important, though. Not a surprise. Wait, this is hilarious. Montana was called for Trump with 3% of the vote in. That means, like, nobody even voted. And they're like, this shit is over. Now. Why is that important? Not because we thought Montana was going to go the other way, but here it is, the Montana Senate race. Tim Sheehy, the Republican, is running against clown Democrat John Tester and is up by 11 points. Folks, if Sheehy wins that race. If Sheehy wins that race, we are now. We're at 50. 50. Now with the West Virginia race being called, we will be effectively at 51 and we will have taken control of the Senate. If Tim Sheehy does it, that's before Bernie Moreno or anyone else is even called. So keep your eye on Montana, even though it was called early. Adam Savannah, Montana, not a big surprise. But the Tim Sheehy race important?
- [183:33]
Adam Gillette
Absolutely. Because this is our best chance to take Senate seats that we're going to have for several cycles. And you've got to remember that in every midterm the party in the White House loses House seats, they lose Senate seats. So if the Republicans can get up to 52, 53 seats, they're in a way better position to survive the midterms where they'll probably lose a couple.
- [183:53]
Mike Benz
How you feel? The Senate, obviously we're going to be a 50, 50 now at West Virginia. Moreno still looks strong, ran a great race. This is the first cycle, I think, in a long time where we picked a slate of really high quality candidates and it's leaving us in a really banger position right now. The only one I'm a little worried about is Kerry Lake's race in Arizona. That Gallego put on quite a scam pretending he wasn't a communist.
- [184:18]
Savannah Hernandez
Yeah, yeah. You know what, Dan? I'll be honest. I haven't paid as close of attention to the House and Senate races, but again, I know that they're important and regarding the Senate, I know that it is like such a small margin. We do need to just flip what those like full three seats. So I'm hoping that we can pull it out. I'm excited to see the continuation of the night, quite frankly.
- [184:37]
Mike Benz
So, Teresa, where is Ryan? Where is Ryan from? Is he here? So I folks, again, I ditched the advertisers, keep the show free. I want to give a big shout out to Ryan from American Financing. Really appreciate you flying in from Puerto Rico for this night. Thank you so much. You guys mean the world to us. There's a little pan out of the crew at OK here in downtown Seward. We've got the whole posse here. We've got everybody here. So getting ready to celebrate this thing? Yeah, man, I'm feeling amazing. Good. I'm up to the amazing level. Hey, man, thank you for your support of the show. Right? You came in from Puerto Rico, man. Thank you, brother. American financing.net They've been a great sponsor. Check them out, folks. Go to their website, support our sponsors. They love us. They love to talk to you and they're not into any of this cancel culture bullshit. So we deeply appreciate it. So guys, again. Oh, wait, sorry. News break. You ready? Whenever you see the paper come in. Thank you, brother. Whenever you see the Paper come in, you know, sums up Iowa president. Yes, Iowa, Donald Trump and Seltzer Pole. Take that now. We're not on radio, Jim, so we don't have to worry to that Fuck. That poll is right, dude. Jim says on the radio we're not allowed to do any of this. This is not the radio. It's my podcast. Jim, what do we say on the radio? You can take that Iowa poll now that it's been called for Donald Trump. And what about McGraw? What are we gonna do with it? We're gonna roll it up in a little ball and we're gonna shove it up your ass. Fucking Iowa pol. Iowa in the can for Donald Trump. Shove that right up there. Seltzer Paul. Kamala Harris is up by three. And I went, no, no, no, she's not. She's not. She's not up by three. I don't know if you made that up or what. Okay. Yeah. Kessel and Eric Daughtry both say the call of Virginia for Harris may be retracted.
- [186:52]
Evita Duffy
Whoa.
- [186:55]
Mike Benz
Dad, listen, I. I'm just telling you, I know Virginia politics well. If there is even a debate at. Holy shit, it's 10:40. Been drinking too much tequila. 10:41. I'd 10:41 at 10:41 Eastern Time on the east coast state like Virginia. If there is even a debate about who won Virginia at this point, by the way. 211. Donald Trump 117. Kamala Harris Getting better by the minute. They're in. I can't how many times I'm going to say they're in trouble. I feel like I'm repeating myself like Jenk on them when they lost in 2016. CNN exit poll. Exit polls, whatevs. We get it. However, it's from cnn. They have zero interest in making a poll look good for Donald Trump. Trump, Michigan. Hispanic voters in from CNN. 60% Trump, 35% Harris. No way, no way, no way, no way, no way. I'm not even buying it. I'm not even. I'm not even buying it. I'm not even buying it. I'm not even buying it. If that's. He is. She is totally screwed in Michigan if that's the case. Okay, Fox isn't calling Georgia yet. The Dan Bongino show saying fuck it. We called it Georgia for Trump. However, 51, 48, they're still holding out. I don't know why they're doing that. They're probably, I don't know, maybe they've got some, you know, 20, 20 PTSD or whatever, but I Think there's zero question, guys. Savannah, I'll start with you. That there's going to be a lot of media pressure from left wing out to not call this race, especially if Pennsylvania is tight. Because what they want to do is the shit they pulled in 2020, they want to Mark Elias litigate this thing to death for four weeks. And luckily, it looks like in Georgia, Florida and North Carolina and potentially in a few other states as well, we may have swamped this thing, but it's clear now that's their plan.
- [188:57]
Savannah Hernandez
Absolutely, Dan. And you know, Evita brought this up as well, how they are already priming us not to know the election election results on election night, which of course is not normal. I've been reading stories all week about how in Arizona it's gonna take 10 to 13 days to tabulate votes, how in Michigan they're going to be counting overseas votes for up to a week. So they definitely are trying to prime us for this, but again, too big to rig. The early voting numbers were incredible. What we're seeing right now is incredible, and I'm just hoping that all of the news that we're. We're seeing just holds true. And we were just able to sweep in. Donald Trump is able to really.
- [189:30]
Mike Benz
Adam, you run accuracy in media, so you know a little bit about media bias. You know, if I think the situation were reversed in Georgia right now, the networks would have already called it for Kamala Harris. It's not. Luckily, it's in our favor, but I don't think there's any doubt, practically speaking, that there's going to be a lot of pressure for them not to call this thing. They're obviously looking at a law failed lawfare batter going a lawfare battle going forward. Your thoughts on that?

Adam Gillette
Yeah, these people are tenacious. As we said before, even if he wins the popular vote, wins everything, they're not going to roll over and die and say, shoot, you won this round. We'll come back in four years. They are like Churchill in that they will fight you in the streets and in the mountains and in the hills and in the cities. They will fight you in the courtrooms. They will fight you on the college campuses. They will use any route they can to deny results and try to discredit any of their opponents. It's what's to be expected. That's merely a sign of success.

Mike Benz
Well, thank you guys again. Have a drink, enjoy yourself. We'll bring you back. We're going to bring Julie and Kelly. Julie Kelly and Mike Benz back for a little Bit of commentary. I appreciate you guys have been amazing. Thank you for coming in. And again, we'll bring you back. Folks, just a couple of notes. Thank you for all the tips. Someone just gave 200. That is really amazing. However, save your money. Dan Bongino doesn't need it. I'm talking about myself in a third person like Bob Dole, which is kind of weird. However, I don't really need to. I appreciate it. But send the money to a charity or something like that. It's really nice you so many people are sending us tips. I deeply appreciate it matters the world. And again, if you want to bid, what's the bid up to in the auction? If you want to bid on the Donald Trump signed autograph Dan Bongino show baseball. We were there. It's on video, him signing it. The bid is up. The bid is up to what? I can't read that. I'm like 30. Oh my gosh. $37,000 for charity for this ball. You guys are amazing. Hey, my mother in law is here. It was a wonderful woman, Miriam Marshall. And I just want to say thank you for showing up because she's an amazing woman. It's so good to see you, Miriam. Look at her, she's so happy to be here. I'm going to tell you something. You see that woman you're seeing on camera right there? That's my mother in law, folks. She was a Trump supporter early on in 2016. She was actually the first one we were leaning towards Ted Cruz. She was the one who said, no, no, you got to go all for Donald Trump because she had worked with him in the airport in New York when he had the Trump Airlines and he used to come on and give $100 tips to all the people. She was like, he was so nice. So what's that? Oh, we're good. For what? Okay, what do you got anything for the President? Okay, wait, hold on. Steve, are we back anywhere from, you.
- [192:18]
Steve Crowder
Know, two to two to five points? Yeah, exactly. He's g. And I think you're right about Virginia. They called Virginia.
- [192:23]
Mike Benz
Are we back with Steve way too early.
- [192:25]
Julie Kelly
I don't know that that we get.
- [192:27]
Mike Benz
There in Virginia, but it's going to keep trying. Oh, man. I'm sorry, folks. It's a live show. We'll keep trying. He's got his own thing trying to raid each other's streams. I promise we'll make it happen. Jim, what do you got? This doesn't have anything to do with the presidential race, but this is just funny. Republicans Flip. Governor's mansion in Puerto Rico. My boy Steve here, who's a doctor, he's got the big presence in Puerto Rico. Okay, quick update. Michigan, Michigan, nothing's over. No calls. Way too early. Michigan and Wisconsin both. Trump is ahead 49, 48. That's obviously great, but too early also. What was the other one? 51, 48 that was in. Was that Pennsylvania? No, I think that was Pennsylvania. 51, 48, folks. Arizona tied up 49.6, 49, 9.6. 50% in too close to call. North Carolina over Wyoming. No big shock goes to Donald Trump. So we're still standing at 211 to 117. We'll have updates coming in for you throughout the night. Don't you worry about it. We still got 492,000 people here on what was at least a little bit ago, the world's largest live stream, the Dan Bongino Show. You guys are absolutely kicking ass and taking names, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. You guys are awesome. Hey, everybody, make sure to tip the bartender. We love the bartenders here. They're amazing. And the bungee. No tax, right? No tax, as my buddy just said, you know, we need an update from Eric Daughtry. That guy's been spot on about stuff. Him? Yeah. Reach out to him. We gotta get him on. I'd love to have him on. This guy's had an amazing streak of just predicting stuff, especially with the early voting. Evita, thoughts from you?
- [194:26]
Evita Duffy
Well, I just saw a tweet that Florida has 22. Over 22 million people. PA 13 million.
- [194:34]
Mike Benz
Why?
- [194:34]
Evita Duffy
I don't understand why nobody can. Everybody can't just be like Florida. We just get it all done tonight. We get all the results. And why do we have to drag it out in states that have a smaller population than here in Florida?
- [194:45]
Mike Benz
Complicated. I mean, I early voted on Saturday. The minute you walk in and you run the ballot, they know who you voted. It's not hard. Yeah. Like, how complicated is this? I think Pennsylvania does this on purpose. So, Mike, again, you guys have been following it. Julie. Actually, I'll go to Julie. You first on this one. I'm feeling good, feeling very good, feeling excellent, feeling amazing. What are your sources telling you?
- [195:11]
Julie Kelly
What's happening is you're starting to get the stories about the Kamala Harris campaign really starting to melt down and freak out about the numbers that are coming out of Pennsylvania. Some of the counties she really needed to do well in, Lackawanna county and others. She's really underperforming in those areas. So those were sort of the counties that people were starting to watch. So in the Wisconsin, we got a glitch on the Decision headquarters website. But I still think Wisconsin looks really good for, for Trump. I mean, this is, this is really pulling away. And in Georgia, Trump is at the same number of votes that Biden won in 2020. And I think there's a 250,000 vote difference between Kamala and Trump at this point. So this is really starting to get away from Harris. And you're starting to see the media reports on this now on Twitter.
- [196:02]
Mike Benz
You know, Mike, you can sense the energy. I've been following the Kamala Harris campaign. They're doing it over at Howard in Washington, D.C. and you can almost see like they were already anticipating there's going to be negative energy. I mean, you can just see it while the intensity grows in Palm beach for Donald Trump. Your thoughts? You got a little bottle of bubbly there, huh? I like that.
- [196:22]
Dan Bongino
I was feeling good about Pennsylvania. We're up 120,000 votes there.
- [196:25]
Mike Benz
Are you feeling good about Pennsylvania right now? Okay.
- [196:28]
Dan Bongino
But, you know, still a lot of, a lot of left to play there. But one thing that I'll point out about Kamala doing her, you know, spending the night at Howard, there's actually something kind of ominous about her being at Howard for this, which is that Howard University set up a new legal center for Sherrilyn Ifill, who is the former head of legal for the, the naacp, specifically to pursue the Jamie Raskin Fourth Amendment disqualification. I think it's called the center for Like Law and Democracy at Howard. It was set up late last year to make the argument to the supreme court that the 14th amendment should have disqualified Trump. And then Raskin was upset that the Supreme Court granted the immunity ruling. And that's when he made that speech that won at politics pros in D.C. saying we're going to need to nullify the vote, citing the third, you know, Article 3 of the 14th Amendment. And then he turned to Sherrilyn Ifill at Howard University, saying, and that's why I'm so glad Sherilyn Ifill set up this new center specifically on the 14th Amendment to disqualify Trump. And that is where Kamala is. So if she loses tonight, she's literally right there at the center working to disqualify Trump in January.
- [197:40]
Mike Benz
Do you. I'm sorry, go ahead.
- [197:42]
Evita Duffy
No, no, I was.
- [197:42]
Dan Bongino
Everyone can look this up. It's the, it's the 14th Amendment center at Howard University.
- [197:46]
Evita Duffy
And everything you've been saying all night, Mike, it's just like they want to tear down our institutions. They want to tear down who we are as a country, which is really ironic because they keep telling us, you guys want to tear down democracy. If Donald Trump wins, it's the end of the world. Can you. Oh, okay. All right, no worries. Could you just, for the viewers, just give us a picture of. Of what it will look like, institution wise, if Kamala, and it's not looking like this, but if Kamala does win or if the Democrats have their way, what are we going to see be torn down?
- [198:19]
Dan Bongino
Well, so they've redefined democracy to mean a consensus of institutions rather than a consensus of individuals. They argue that it's Trump who's tearing down the institutions because populism is essentially a revolt against institutions that are failing the people. The institutions serve as that middle ground between the people and their government. They call institutions things like the news media. So if you attack the news media, if you undermine public faith and confidence in the news media, you are attacking the institutions. This is actually how the National Science foundation, the Defense Department, the State Department, and the web of NGOs and the censorship industry all define democracy as being the consensus of institutions. And so what they say is that disinformation is a attack on democracy because it's an attack on institutions like the news media, the science and government agencies. Well, democracy is the people. I think what you would see under a Harris reign is instead of earning the institutions, earning the trust of the people, they will forcibly instruct, stall it through censorship, through legal action against X, and rumble through locking up journalists like they did to Steve Bannon when they threw Steve Bannon in jail. The prosecutors specifically cited the reach of War Room, how many audience members it reached, its distribution as the reason that it was important to put Steve Bannon in prison. Because as a journalist, he reached so many people. I think you're going to see that on steroids with a gleeful prosecutor of Kamala Harris. Everyone, right now, it's at the top of my X page. It's ikebencyber. I have the 45 second clip of Kamala Harris detailing the power that she has with the stroke of a pen to ruin a person's life and how she can. And almost getting off on the fact that she can economically bankrupt someone, she can ruin the reputation in their community, she can force them to sell their home, their spouses may leave them because they can no longer financially support themselves, and that she has the power to bring them back to life by dismissing the charges. And that's, that's a prosecutor, that's a rogue prosecutor who may potentially be in charge of the presidency. So everything runs through the Justice Department, whether it's the CIA, the Defense Department, the, the Department of Labor, there's any reform. If you want to enforce a congressional subpoena, you need the Justice Department to enforce it. So, you know, that is the threat is that anyone who opposes the institute, the institutions will be propped up as a gatekeeper for the regime. And so they will be able to do the extra constitutional things that the government pays them to do but cannot do itself. And so what I think what you would see is a, effectively a propping up of corrupt institutions rather than the necessary tearing down and reforming and building them back up. Build them, build back. Better for the institutions and the reform process that would happen under a Trump presidency.
- [201:21]
Evita Duffy
Yeah, and that's, it's really dystopian. Everything that you just laid out, terrifying. Julie, Young people have, the Biden admin has tried to buy them. Right. We're gonna, we're gonna give you guys massive student loan forgiveness. You know, we're going to. And I don't know if it's really worked out. I don't know if young people really have, I mean, a lot of them aren't paying back their loans right now anyways. But you have an economy that's in shambles. We can't afford to buy a home. Right. Inflation is high, so interest rates are high. How do you think, how do you think that the buying of votes is going to turn out for Democrats as a long term plan? I mean, as we look to student loan forgiveness or even putting up migrants and housing and then promising them amnesty, how do you think that's going to be as a long term plan?
- [202:06]
Julie Kelly
Yeah, that's a great question. I mean, I don't know. I've got, you know, daughters who are 24 and 20 and seeing how they're friends, you know, it was very uncool to be a young person and not just be a Trump supporter, but be a Republican in general. And so you see that sort of stigma has come off of Gen Z. And that's why, again, that will contribute to Kamala Harris's defeat, if that's what we're going to see is not just the gender gap that didn't materialize and stronger numbers among minority voters, but they always, Democrats have always relied on young people to turn out the vote. I think that that was the game changer in 2022 after the Dobbs decision. Clearly, these states with high college concentrations, Michigan, for example, that was a big issue, and that really generated a lot of enthusiasm. But now, you know, reality is, okay, that's only one issue. We can't get jobs. We're looking at a future where our parents had homes, and we can't even pay our rent. And so you're right. The attempt to buy off that vote over and over with student loan forgiveness and other little cookies that we pay certainly did not appear to work.
- [203:19]
Evita Duffy
And, Julie, you're a woman, I'm a woman. We were told there's all this pressure, right, that if you don't vote for Kamala Harris, you're not voting with your gender. You're not a real woman. You're not sticking up for girls everywhere. I don't know about you, but I felt like the pressure actually came the other way around, that it was other women. It wasn't men telling women you have to. I just felt like it was other women saying, you have to vote this way, otherwise you're. You're not a real woman. Instead of it being like the ad you brought up where it was men pressuring their wives to vote for Trump or else.
- [203:52]
Julie Kelly
Look, we have a real problem with privileged white women in this country. And I can say that because I consider them sort of my tribe, not privileged, but certainly suburban women. And we have a real problem with that. They have a problem. We don't have a problem with them. They have a problem. And maybe after this election, Donald Trump winning, they will finally realize that maybe watching the View all the time and just paying attention to what's happening on Facebook and this hive mind, this junior high mentality that most women, white women from their late 30s into their late 50s appear to have, they really haven't matured beyond seventh, eighth grade. They can't really think outside. I mean, I saw this in affluent suburbs in Chicago. They're littered with Harris signs. Well, why? If you try to have a conversation with one, they couldn't tell you why they're. But, you know, they hate Trump and abortion. That was it. So I don't think the Republican Party needs to worry about trying to appeal to them. These women need to start thinking for themselves. We are not the ones who are not thinking for ourselves. Those women are the ones who are not.
- [205:01]
Evita Duffy
Mikey, What? What about the baseball? Okay, we're at 50,000 for the baseball with one minute left to bid, so that's a big deal. Oh, 60. Oh, yeah. Okay. Dan, come over here and announce that.
- [205:17]
Mike Benz
I had to take A break even at Dan Bongino show. Dan Bongino needs to take a break with him. I just want to quick give you guys a quick update on the ball, the Donald Trump signed ball. The auction for the ball is now at an astonishing $45,000. Holy shit. If you want to bid on it, though, you got a bid on this sucker soon because it ends in what, one minute? Who the hell thought we were going to raise 45,000 for this ball? 50. If someone wants to do 50, that'd be really awesome. Oh, it's at 50. 50,000. What is it? What? 50,105 for the Donald Trump signed ball. Wow, that man, look at that video of Trump headquarters versus Kamala Harris. Headquarters. That is. You want to talk about night and day. Yeah, they're not really. You can already tell, like, the vibe is really, really bad. So Pennsylvania, folks, quick Update out of Pennsylvania, 51% Donald Trump 48%. Pa. You got any updates for us? Looking right now, 51, 48. Pennsylvania. I'm feeling very, very good about Pennsylvania. And if we can get a call on Pennsylvania tonight, there's simply no math. Here's the betting markets. Hey, Mike, listen, you're like, you know, deep state. They're all into probabilities and stuff. You know, these CIA guys come in, they go, there's a 51% chance of this or whatever. When you're sitting there, people putting their own money on Kelshi. 91% on a betting site now for Donald Trump, it's probably not looking good.
- [207:01]
Dan Bongino
I mean, that's. Those Pennsylvania numbers. That was 51 for Trump and 48. That a. That's a lot of votes you got to make up with that much baked in the issue. I mean, you know, Josh Shapiro is as crooked as they come, though. And if they decide it's too close to call tonight, if it's, if it's, if we know Pennsylvania tonight, it's probably because we win clean if we, if it goes overnight. The thing is, is Arizona is so the Maricopa county situation where they're saying it's going to take 10 to 13 days to count. You know, count it out. In Arizona, I saw numbers that Trump was up like +4 or something earlier. Look, we need Pennsylvania essentially, and this is as good as we can be situated currently. But until more of the vote is in, I'm.
- [207:53]
Mike Benz
Pennsylvania goes for Trump tonight. There's simply no math. I mean, moving forward, there's no, there's really no path for Kamala Harris given North Carolina and Georgia going in our direction.
- [208:03]
Dan Bongino
If, if she takes Michigan, Wisconsin and Arizona, is there, is there a path from there?
- [208:13]
Mike Benz
I don't think there is. I think if she, if he sweeps Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, I mean, Nevada doesn't look good for them either. I mean, right now it's 216, 193. But here's an update, folks. Wisconsin, 60% in. In Wisconsin, it's now 50, 48. Trump. I mean, this is like, it's not, there's not that many votes in California Senate race just called. No surprise. That snake. We can't stand Adam Schiff. Boo, everybody. A collective boo for Adam Schiff, who absolutely sucks. Yeah, he won our. No big shocker there.
- [208:49]
Steve Crowder
And Vindman, by the way.
- [208:50]
Mike Benz
Wait, no, no, that's not true. Is, are you sure? Wait, do you see it?
- [208:59]
Dan Bongino
Is leading in the House. So they're going to Vindman and Schiff.
- [209:02]
Mike Benz
I mean, that's like a deep state like wet dream. I'm just throwing this out there because I trust this guy's analysis. Eric Daughtry, he's been very good. He's saying Bernie Moreno is going to win the Ohio Senate race, which is freaking huge. That is major news. If true. What's that? And they're saying the same thing. Bernie Moreno in the Senate.
- [209:29]
Dan Bongino
Here's another thing. Republicans need to take the Senate now because with Adam Schiff in the Senate, they're going to put him as the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee. He was the head of the House Intelligence Committee and did unbelievable damage from there. If he's in the upper chamber, they're going to put him right on the Senate Intelligence Committee and he is going to lead the intelligence state against a Trump presidency. So seeing Schiff win this Democrat race here on the Senate side tells me we have to take the Senate in addition to taking the presidency because they are going to weaponize that CIA under Adam Schiff. They're going to weaponize the entire odni. The entire FBI counterintelligence structure is going to run through Adam Schiff in the Senate now. And when you combine that with Vindman, having a friend in the House to be able to coordinate this through both chambers, that's a very dangerous combination. So not only do we need to take the Senate to prevent because it's very different if he's the ranking member on a Republican committee as opposed to the head of a Democrat committee, which has all the investigative and subpoena power that comes with it. So just to just as a matter of defensive prophylaxis, this a Senate, essentially spearheaded on the IC side by, by Adam Schiff, is, is the, is a dagger in the heart.
- [210:45]
Mike Benz
It would just clog up the entire Trump presidency.
- [210:48]
Dan Bongino
It would give every rogue member of the IC a direct channel for the Senate to translate that into nefarious legislative act.
- [210:58]
Mike Benz
Julie, I'm feeling amazing about the Senate. I mean, now, obviously, West Virginia is called. Montana's looking amazing. I don't see really a path for a tester at this point, given the massive turnout.
- [211:07]
Julie Kelly
Right.
- [211:07]
Mike Benz
So let's say that race does go our way. We're at 51. If this call by Eric Daughtry's right about Bernie Moreno, that's 52.
- [211:15]
Julie Kelly
Right.
- [211:15]
Mike Benz
I mean, that puts us in pretty amazing shape.
- [211:18]
Julie Kelly
Right. And they were very worried about Tammy Baldwin. Her numbers in Wisconsin were collapsing. Jackie Rosen was, I think, two points behind in Nevada.
- [211:27]
Mike Benz
Jackie Rosen, Sam Brown in Nevada, wild card for Republicans. That could be a huge, it would.
- [211:33]
Julie Kelly
Be a huge upset because I don't think anyone really saw that coming. And so that would be a big one. And then, of course, Michigan was very close as well. So really, we'll see what happens with the, with Trump and Harris in those states. But if he pulls away three points or so in Michigan or three points in Wisconsin, that's very bad news for the Democrats running there. Another incumbent, Tammy Baldwin, in Wisconsin. So in the open scene in Michigan.
- [212:02]
Evita Duffy
This question I asked Dan, what are your thoughts on the Trump personnel? Hopefully he wins. Hopefully things look really good for us tonight. And we have some black pillars saying that it's not going to look good. He's the deep state again. It's going to be a disaster, just like last time. Are you optimistic about his personnel? Do you think it's going to be better than last time?
- [212:22]
Dan Bongino
I think it's going to be substantially smarter than the first three years of last time. But I'm not sure if they're going to go the full fourth year. So when PPO transitioned to put Johnny McEntee at the helm, it was transformative for the White House in terms of being able to get good personnel in every part of almost every federal agency, except, except maybe the Justice Department. But I know that there've been controversies around the campaign's relationship with Project 2025 and things like that. And so I think there's a compromise happening at the donor level right now. I think it was very interesting that Donald Trump floated Mike Pompeo's name as Defense Secretary.
- [212:59]
Evita Duffy
I do, too.
- [213:00]
Dan Bongino
That is very interesting in terms of what it signals in terms of Trump's posture, his sort of policy vision, but then also is posturing potentially to donors, but then also potentially to the blob itself, that certain aspects of foreign policy they're most afraid of are going to be alleviated because Pompeo, who is my former boss at State, really straddles that line between Trump world and the Atlantis foreign policy, NATO world. And so I think maybe him as a sort of compromise Defense secretary. I don't know if there's 4D chess going on in Trump's wizard brain about why he's floated that several times, but I, I think that's an interesting tell about the sort of thing.
- [213:38]
Evita Duffy
Doesn't scare you. Pompeo doesn't scare you necessarily. He scares me.
- [213:44]
Mike Benz
Appointment. I mean, that was by his imprimatur.
- [213:46]
Dan Bongino
Yeah.
- [213:47]
Mike Benz
Scares the shit out of me. Gina Haspel has been a disaster, or was a disaster.
- [213:50]
Dan Bongino
She was the. Yeah, I mean, she was under. She was at the London, you know, chief of station for the CIA, which was the same place that generated Russiagate with the Christopher Steele British intelligence network. You know, it's, you know, he was the one that told us about the snake and the frog. Right. You know, you knew I was a snake. And so. But there may be certain compromises that he feels he needs to make on the donor side and then also within the, you know, sort of neocon and never Trump wings of the GOP if they bring another special prosecutors investigation. I believe he told Tucker Carlson that, you know, one of his motivations for bombing Syria in 2018 was because he owed favors to the Republican side of Congress to stave off Mueller. And so this sort of calculus is hard to sort of appreciate, I think, from the outside. But under the stress of FBI investigations, Justice Department lawsuits, you know, civil floods of civil society lawsuits, and threats from members of his own party who threatened to align with the Democrats if they don't get their cut from Trump. He may be making the sort of Solomon's baby, you know, splitting choices in Pompeo. So I'm waiting to see how the rest of the State Department IC FBI choices. Obviously, you have to get rid of Chris Wray and the disaster that that's been. Chris Wray should have been axed the moment he threatened to leave in 2018 when he. When Trump cast out on.
- [215:14]
Mike Benz
Oh, all right. Yes. Wow. Okay. So, folks, sorry, Mike. No, but listen, if Fox is calling it, you know, it's pretty much over. Bernie Moreno, the new senator from the great state of Ohio, given the boot to the worst liberal I've ever Seen Sherrod Brown, Bernie Moreno, we are now up to, if we pull it out in Montana, it looks like now, what do we have? 50, 51, 52. So if Donald Trump wins, we now conclusively have control of the Senate. Damn. Good job. Come on, man. That's a, that looks like a route at this point. I mean, I mean, Sherrod Brown is you. I mean, Julie, you know, Sherrod Brown, that's huge. I mean, this is like deep state forever.
- [216:00]
Julie Kelly
Yeah. Senator, Correct.
- [216:02]
Mike Benz
Florida Amendment three on weed goes down. No. Florida Amendment four, creating a constitutional right to kill babies in the womb. That goes down in flames. Yes, yes. This the shitty night for the Democrats keeps getting shittier. Julie, this is a huge pickup in Bernie Moreno.
- [216:24]
Julie Kelly
It's huge. And you know, you have to pause for a minute and consider wasn't that long ago when we were watching Ohio and Florida, those were the swing states. Right. And now they're so conclusively red that you have kind of a. I mean, I don't. Not that familiar with Moreno, but taking out a four term U.S. senator, obviously very powerful in that state, and it looks like he'll lose by five points. That's a big defeat for many reasons why this is so significant for Republicans and the Trump movement, the MAGA movement.
- [216:58]
Mike Benz
Moreno was not a McConnell favorite at all. Moreno was the guy they didn't, they didn't really want. They had other ideas for this. He comes in. Yeah, I know, it's awesome news. So he comes in with none of that baggage behind him.
- [217:14]
Evita Duffy
It's very exciting. All of this is very exciting. Julie, I want to ask you. Maybe I don't. Maybe, maybe I asked Savannah, but just about the Democratic strategy and the way that they have been bringing in. I mean, Oprah is coming in and she's saying that we're never gonna be able to vote again. Did I ask you this or did I, Savannah? This I don't remember. But the celebrity endorsements and whether you think that this is going to be a long term strategy for the left, because I don't think it's worked out tonight.
- [217:41]
Julie Kelly
It hasn't worked out. It didn't work out last time. It didn't work out the time really before that. I think that that is part of what people find repellent about the new Democratic Party. Its elite is. And having like we talked about Julia Roberts do this voiceover indicating that somehow women who want to vote for Trump are told what to do by their husbands and then having George Clinton, because.
- [218:05]
Mike Benz
I know this is kind of A. This was a really sensitive topic with me. This ridiculous bullshit ad they ran where you were like, the Democrats were like, hey, wives, you need to hide your vote from your husbands and go quietly. Vote for Kamala, number one. The implication there is that a wife needs to hide a vote from the husband. Like you're some kind of, like, you know.
- [218:29]
Dan Bongino
Political affair and you need to, like, hide it.
- [218:31]
Julie Kelly
Like, so lame.
- [218:32]
Mike Benz
It was like, that's your spot. And not insulting to women.

Julie Kelly
Not only that, it is completely reverse of reality. It is the Harris women who are shrews, who are tormented, their poor husbands who want to vote for Donald Trump, that they can't even talk about it in their own household.
- [218:50]
Dan Bongino
It's completely taken away to vote.
- [218:52]
Julie Kelly
Yeah, it's exact. I mean, the women, the Harris women supporters are the ones who are really the bullies in that scenario. So that's another reason why the ad was so hilarious.
- [219:02]
Mike Benz
Question for the whole panel and I'll go around the horn. Evita, Julie, Mike, do you think it's tomorrow? Before recrimination starts, here's the narrative. My opinion, I am ho tomorrow. It was Biden's fault. He got out too late, screwed this thing up. We had a great candidate, but she just didn't have time to introduce herself. I mean, there's some truth to all of it, but Kamala Harris just genuinely sucked. But how quickly before the Democrats start eating each other alive?
- [219:32]
Evita Duffy
No, I mean, it's already actually they're blaming the voters. I just saw a tweet, Nicole Wallace, that we need to examine the information consumption of young men, especially on the economy. So I think we're going to see a lot of censorship pushes from the federal government after this, to Mike Benz's point. But yeah, I'm sure they're freaking out already and I think they're actually going to blame the voters more than they blame themselves.
- [219:53]
Julie Kelly
This is another humiliating defeat for the media because they protected her. They created a false Persona of her, that she was this joyous candidate. They excused away all of her policy pivots. They refused to hold her feet to the fire on anything. They totally coddled her. The American people woke up to that very quickly. And they resented the fact, resent, I think, that they coddled and bubble wrapped Kamala Harris while continuing to pick up on every little comment that Donald Trump made. And they. They created. She was a phony. She was just an image. She was a murder. When we're talking about mirage, that's what she was. This is another defeat for the media. They really thought that they could prop her up as this construct, convince most Americans that she could really be President of the United States because they're willing to do anything to make sure that Donald Trump doesn't go back to the White House. This is just a complete failure and humiliation for the American press.
- [220:52]
Dan Bongino
I suspect if things continue tre trending the way they are, that there will be flashes of that tomorrow, but that someone will get the call at their, at their magazine, at their newspaper, at their online outlet to rein that in because of the devastation that does to their legal challenges to publicly concede a legitimate loss. And I mentioned this before, I forget if you were, if you had gotten up or if you're still here, but the fact that Kamala is at Howard University tonight, at the exact 14th amendment center that Sherrilyn Ifill set up to disqualify Trump in January, if Trump won in November, I don't think is a coincidence. I mean, that she's. I don't think Sherrilyn Ifill and Jamie Raskin and David Pothorser and Norm Eisen and Mark Elias are sitting, you know, with their thumbs up their butts, watch, watching this and saying, oh, darn, we lost. I think they're going to try to run every legal angle they can and everything the press says about this can be entered into court as, you know, as evidence. It affects perceptions of public legitimacy. And so I think people are going to feel that in the media and they will try to print it. And then there will be a quick change over the following week as they attempt to preserve the legal avenues to.
- [222:15]
Mike Benz
This 14th amendment bullshit. I've had a few friends texting me throughout the night. A preemptive disqualification under the 14th Amendment. You think there's any legs to that?
- [222:23]
Dan Bongino
I think it totally depends on what they're able to generate in the next two months. So, for example, in 2004, when the state Department overthrew the government of Ukraine in the Orange Revolution, there was an official vote tally and then the presence of street demonstrations, the presence of USAID and US State Department funded media that flooded the zone by saying that that vote shouldn't count. There's a parallel vote that should count instead. You know, in Michael McFaul's magnum, you know, his opus work on this, he specifically said that the Supreme Court made the determination to overthrow, to overturn the vote specifically because of the grand protests playing out and the fact that they felt essentially like they could not, they did not want to make a ruling that would rebut the force of the mob, while the mob was being propped up by the media as a pro democracy group. And now. So it really depends on the capacities they're able to bring to bear. But they'll need to bring them to bear very quickly. But that was two months in Ukraine that took to go from zero to 60 and it's two months between November and January. So I'm not saying it's going to happen, but I would not rule it out.
- [223:33]
Mike Benz
Julie.
- [223:33]
Julie Kelly
The only thing I want to say, and I just tweeted this, is that Trump's victory tonight will end the January 6th insurrection narrative, completely kill it, because that's what they were relying on to win. And think of all the time and resources and energy and fixation that the media and Democrats and everyone put on January 6th. This will, this is sort of the death now for it. So to your point, they probably will try to perpetuate that. But I think for, I mean, the.
- [224:02]
Mike Benz
Democrats have never been known to be a particularly self reflective bunch. And the thing is, as the Gen 6 narrative falls apart anyway, we're now finding out there were feds in the crowd. They don't want to admit how many we got. The Kamala Harris bomb plot they're notoriously cryptic about. They still keep going. And I want to believe that because it's at this point become just so ridiculously counterproductive for them. But they're a really stupid bunch. I mean, they've been going with this fascist thing for what, eight years now, and it still keeps kicking them in the ass.
- [224:34]
Dan Bongino
Well, they may actually ramp up the January 6th rhetoric in the next two months because that is the linchpin of the 14th Amendment argument. And it's also the main legal leverage point they have against Trump in the sense that the Justice Department has an active criminal suit against Trump under the Ku Klux Klan act, you know, conveniently around January 6th. And so I suspect that it may actually go, I think Julie's totally right, should Trump be inaugurated in January? But you may see between November and January them actually ramping it up because that will help provide support for congressional action in January to stop what might happen here tonight.
- [225:21]
Evita Duffy
I think that one of the biggest problems that Kamala had this entire cycle was she didn't differentiate herself from Biden. She's famously asked it many times and she couldn't say what she would do differently because it would look really bad for her to be disloyal to Biden. I think the only reason he sanctioned her running is because she wasn't going to damage his legacy in any way. How could she have done that better? I mean, I'm trying to just like, think about, think this through, because I do think the vast majority of Americans said in polling, we need change in America. And she tried to paint herself as the change, but she couldn't say what she would do different than Biden. How could she have even. How could she have handled this any better?
- [226:02]
Julie Kelly
I don't think she really could have. I mean, I think she tried to tap dance around it as much as she could because she didn't want to further isolate herself from him, even though that was happening behind the scenes with his team and her new team and advisors. But she really, I don't know that she really had a choice. I think she tried to, in very vague terms, but again, that wasn't convincing. And when you have exit polls showing 70% of voters want a change, 70% of voters are very unhappy, think the country's on the wrong direction. And. And then she was trying to make it sound like we're going to turn the page. And everyone was like, well, wait a second, you're in office now. So that didn't work either. I really don't know how she could have answered that question differently.
- [226:45]
Mike Benz
Pennsylvania is looking worse by the minute, folks. Pennsylvania is now at 51.1 for Donald Trump, 75% of the vote in 47.9 for Kamala Harris. That is a difference right now of approximately 200,000 votes. I get it, Mike. I mean, I'm as nervous about it as you are because, you know, Pennsylvania's got a history of this. But I mean, again, you know, you got a gun to your head. Take a bet. Who do you want to be right now, Donald Trump or Kamala Harris? Even with the scamming, you want to be Donald Trump.
- [227:18]
Dan Bongino
This is best case scenario right now in Pennsylvania. I mean, if you had asked me, you know, if I could dare to dream where we would be in Pennsylvania at this hour of this night and someone said, you know, look at Wisconsin.
- [227:30]
Mike Benz
250 to 47, it's 50.7 to 47.8. So effectively a three point difference in Wisconsin with 65% of the vote. I mean, we're at the point now where honestly, even if she were to magically pull Pennsylvania out of her ass, I mean, if he pulls Wisconsin and Arizona and maybe in Nevada, it still doesn't work out for her. I mean, she needed North Carolina or Georgia.
- [227:57]
Dan Bongino
Right. The issue is Arizona is probably the ultimate wild card in terms of hijinks that they can Play. There has been nothing but corruption in Arizona now for eight years. And what's come out of Stephen Richer and Bill Gates and that and that crew, the fact that they pre announced it would take 10 to 13 days to count Maricopa county two weeks for the same, the exact same place that had so many problems before. I would not feel comfortable going to sleep tonight if all it takes is Trump to convert a large lead in Arizona. Because that's the one place that I think is so corrupt and so hard to get accountability for because they had a state attorney general's race which was razor close. It was literally within a couple hundred votes. And that new state attorney general took that couple hundred vote mandate, I think was the closest race in Arizona history and began mass prosecuting, you know, all Trump political allies in the state en masse. And so, you know, I don't want to leave it to Arizona. I would say, you know, if the more, the closer it gets to locking in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, the more bubbly will be able to pop, you know, at night's end.
- [229:12]
Mike Benz
I, I'm again, I'm just kind of wondering, Evita, looking at this. Well, I mean, what, what state? Where, where is she overperforming? I mean it doesn't seem like it's anywhere at this point. I mean it looks, is Michigan looking good for her?
- [229:26]
Evita Duffy
It looks like she's going to sweep all, I mean Earl, this early on looks like she's sweeping the swing states. And my question is what was with all the polls? All these polls were saying it was so close and that she was actually ahead in some of these states. And now that appears to be not true at all. So what happened? I'm so confused.
- [229:43]
Mike Benz
I think the biggest polling miss was clearly Florida again where they were like, oh yeah, you know, Trump by two or three. It's a Trump like double digit blowout. But I mean we've got a data set. I'm a data guy. Trump outran the polls 9 points in 2016, 5 points in 2020. And even the New York Times, Nate Cohn, the pollster was saying, hey, we may have made some of the same mistakes again. I mean, is this like the end of the polling industry tonight if this turns out to be an electoral college landslide?
- [230:10]
Julie Kelly
Well, Nate Cohn said they had a plus 16%, 16 point where they could reach white Democrats but couldn't reach white Republicans because they just were not answering the calls, they were not responding to the survey. So he knew right then there and he said that they tried to make up for that huge gap. Did they do it? I don't know. The last New York Times polls, they could be kind of close. If this is, you know, two or three points.
- [230:37]
Mike Benz
The thing is, like, it doesn't look like the polls were accurate anywhere. Like, look at the Ted Cruz race. They said this thing is neck and neck, right? Communist Colin Allred was 53, 44, 53.9. So it was a 10, 10 point victory. Like, it doesn't look like it was even close. And I mean, at what point do you just say to yourself, like, man, we just can't pull Donald Trump. Like, there's. I mean, the midterms. The midterms. They did okay. It wasn't great, right? This. I mean, this is just such a huge miss. You gotta wonder at what point, like, anyone's gonna take the Ann Seltzer poll out of Iowa. Right now, Mike, it looks like a freaking psyop. I mean, are you kidding me?
- [231:18]
Dan Bongino
Well, but that is sort of the purpose of some polls is to. Is to prime people for their perceptions in order to convert that into some political action. Like, I do think polls propping up Harris were designed to make it look like a Trump victory on election night tonight would be illegitimate and that something was wrong because everyone was expecting a Harris victory. So I do think they were padding it in connection with potential avenues to challenge the legendary legitimacy of the. Of the vote. For example, they used the close. The close margins in 2016 to say that Russia tipped, you know, Wisconsin and Michigan because of how close they were and that Hillary Clinton was projected to win. And so because they were expecting a Clinton win, and that sort of gave more legitimacy in the eyes of the public to the idea that Trump didn't really win at Fair and Square. So I think that is part of the strategy of some of these politically biased polling places. But where are we in Virginia right now? Has that been called yet, or is that.
- [232:17]
Mike Benz
They called it a while ago, but then Jim sent me a note here saying that they were. There was a discussion about uncalling Virginia. Here it is right here. According to Eric Daughtry, Virginia called for Harris, New Hampshire called for Harris, but apparently there was some discussion about uncalling it. Listen, I don't think Trump's gonna win Virginia. The point is, if Virginia is even remotely competitive, how do you sell me on the idea that Kamala Harris is gonna win Michigan and Wisconsin when she's down three or four points with three quarters of the vote in? I mean, it doesn't even make any kind of Mathematical sense at that point.
- [232:52]
Steve Crowder
Right.
- [232:52]
Dan Bongino
I only bring it up because Virginia is a, you know, sort of a swing state. Glenn Youngkin did win the, you know, the Republican governorship there. And so her securing Virginia would show some pockets, you know, that they could, you know, present her potentially over performing in or capturing in. But it all comes down to Pennsylvania, Wisconsin at this point, basically.
- [233:14]
Mike Benz
I mean Trump headquarters looks really excited. I mean, yeah, they look like they're with the Kamala Harris. I don't even know if you can call it headquarters at Howard University. It looks like it's like a funeral or something like that. I mean they gotta be feeling good. The Trump internals have been amazing for the last few days. I know that I've heard it from them. But with him up and I'm just, I got to get the Michigan numbers and the Virginia numbers if I look at that.
- [233:37]
Julie Kelly
But Wisconsin, 95% reporting 100,000 gap. Yes, it's over 50 to 47.
- [233:46]
Mike Benz
So that 47, I mean Mike, this should have been, I think it was.
- [233:51]
Julie Kelly
Win 10, 11 points for Biden in 2020.
- [233:53]
Mike Benz
Yes, should have been an easy 8 point win.
- [233:57]
Julie Kelly
Michigan slowly bringing in their results. They've got 37% reporting. So Trump 48. She's at 49. But it's still two two a push right now.
- [234:09]
Mike Benz
Yeah, but look, the hubd now 67 in Wisconsin, folks. The Seneca's up 49, 48. That is fantastic. Four thousand, nine hundred and forty eight. Eric Hovde. We've already effectively taken the Senate. Donald Trump wins. We've really taken the Senate. But if we can pull that hubby race in addition to Bernie Moreno and the Sheehy race in Montana, they're in a world of trouble. So guys, thanks a lot for your commentary. Enjoy yourselves. I know I've been wearing out your vocal cords, but you've been absolutely amazing. You've been tearing it up. The rumble chat absolutely loves you guys. Great. So glad I had you on tonight. Mike Benz, Julie Kelly, thanks. Really appreciate it. Everybody, a round of applause for Mike Benz and Julie Kelly, two of the best guests in the business. We really appreciate it. Hey, does you guys still want to do wait. Arizona 49.7. Trump 49.5. Kamala Harris still obviously way too early to call there. Wisconsin getting away from Kamala Harris by the minute. 50.9. And now 47.6. Donald Trump again. I'm running out of runways in this airport for her to take this plane off and where she looks like the next President of the United States. Did you Guys want to do the crossover with Steve Justin. Oh, he's out. He said is the next one. They've given up on the tech side of that. They're like, okay, we've had enough. So we're obviously going to keep our eye on Pennsylvania. We're going to keep our eye on Wisconsin. We'll keep our eye on Michigan. We may have a call from Michigan at some point tonight. Not really sure about what's going to go on there, how close it is. It's going to be some kind of recount or whatever. We're used to the shenanigans. But you're in the betting markets right now. They're looking 88, 90% Donald Trump. Where people are putting their own money down. How many folks in the chat. You guys enjoying this tonight? I've been having way too much of a good time, especially with this tequila next to me. I'm actually stunned. We still have 460, 000 people watching this. I need some updates, man. I didn't. Nobody's reporting and they're slow. I know. Everything's stagnant. I know. Wait, PA 511 47. Still in Pennsylvania. I know. Look at you. My buddy Mike, she's looking all jacked. It's the cold plunge. That's what you're doing. So the betting markets, folks. Cassie, betting markets. 92% now, people putting their money down. You basically have to bet like a hundred thousand dollars to win like a penny at this point. 92% Donald Trump, 8% Kamala Harris. But people putting their own skin in the game. That's all I want to hear about. Again, Colorado called for Donald Trump. Pennsylvania, I don't know. We'll see what happens. But folks, no, he didn't. So Eric Daughtry update from Florida Voice News is Eric Daughtry. Dearborn, Michigan, a place he should have gotten crushed in. Donald Trump. He won by what? Trump, 45. Stein 30. 33. Harris 15. Wow, folks, that is an enormous, enormous problem going into Michigan on election night. Wait, where's the pop? Breaking from Fox Harris came. Harris campaign no longer speaking to media. Let's go. And in the greatest side of all.
- [237:45]
Dan Bongino
Wait, that headline's two years old.
- [237:49]
Steve Crowder
That's actually a good point.
- [237:50]
Mike Benz
Jim said. Breaking news. The Kamala Harris campaign is no longer talking to the media. And Ben's brought up a good point that headlines from three and a half years ago where Kamala has never spoken to the media ever. Folks, listen, I'm just going to tell you tonight, if this thing keeps going the direction it's going now, outside of some drastic, drastic seismic punctuated equilibrium type moment where species are getting wiped out, this thing is going to be a really good night. And I go to sleep tonight feeling really good. I think you're going to wake up tomorrow and I see very few scenarios by which, you know, we're going to be able to. We're not. We're knocking. I don't know any other way to say it. This. I just don't want to get ahead of myself, but this thing really just looks absolutely incredible. So we'll stay on the air for you for a little bit longer. We'll keep an eye on Pennsylvania, maybe another update or so. But to all the 400,000 people who hung with us the entire night, 500,000 at one point. You know, we deeply appreciate it. Make sure you follow Mike Benz. What do you got there?
- [238:54]
Julie Kelly
It looks like they called Georgia.
- [238:56]
Mike Benz
Who called Georgia the decision. Oh, decision desk. Yes, we called Georgia a long time ago. Just, you know, because we're trusting. Yeah, oh, yeah, we called Georgia like probably three hours ago because we saw the writing on the wall with all our friends. But I just want you to give Mike a follow. He's at. What is it? Mike Ben.
- [239:14]
Dan Bongino
Mike, Ben. Cyber.
- [239:15]
Mike Benz
Ikeben. Cyber. Julie Kelly has an amazing substack. They've been incredible guests for us tonight. Really appreciate their time. We had Adam Gillette in here from Accuracy and Media. He was absolutely amazing. Really appreciate that. And Savannah Hernandez, she has her own show on Rumble at Sav says really incredible work. Let's. We have a popular vote count. Jim, any idea where it is so far? Because this is the mandate I'm looking for. If we can get a mandate, like a popular vote mandate, then they're genuinely effed because the whole narrative that, oh, you guys are all stupid fascist Nazis kind of wears itself out at 51% of the country when. Look at the Harris headquarters. Holy shit, someone passed. Did they pass Xanax out over there or what? They look like they're gonna. Oh, my gosh, it's reminding me of Hillary. What's that? Five million on the popular vote. The New York Times. The New York Times is suggesting that Trump could win the popular vote by 1%. Man, that is the biggest kick in the balls that the mainstream media. Yeah. I've ever seen.
- [240:27]
Dan Bongino
That also makes it much harder for them to organize pro democracy protests because the linchpin of those protests were going to be that it's the will of the people reflected by the popular vote. So the all the slogans associated with the illegitimacy of an Electoral College victory do not work if the popular vote official record is for Trump.
- [240:46]
Mike Benz
Well, folks, I don't think we're going to get an official call on the election tonight. I'm going to make the dam Bongino know unofficial call. This motherfucker is over. Okay, I'm sorry. Donald Trump is going to be the next President Elect of the United States. I don't see. I'm just basing our data. I don't want to be an ass about it. I'm just telling you like there's. She's run out of Runway to take this plane off. The minority vote came in in the exit polling. Even if it's off by 5%, it's so catastrophically bad. She doesn't have the bullpen assets to bring in people to close out the game. She's got the third baseman like Wade Boggs when he came in to pitch the game. There's nobody left. So I'm going to tell you my humble opinion. Having followed politics for a long time, you know, I'm going to tell you, if I'm wrong, I'll eat paper, because I don't eat paper. But I sincerely doubt I'm wrong. I am almost positive at this point. I went from very good to amazing to 99% sure Donald Trump's going to be tequila. And I didn't even finish the last shot because I wanted to be somewhat sober getting off the air. But I really believe that this thing is that she just doesn't have a lot of avenue left with the Wisconsin numbers are horrible. The Michigan numbers will hold off on for now. The Arizona numbers don't look good, and Donald Trump was never trailing an entire state. So I'll get some final words from each of you and again, a deep appreciation for all of you that spent the night with us. 500,000 people. Evita, you're kind of the skeptic in the group. I appreciate that. How are you feeling at the end of the night?
- [242:20]
Evita Duffy
No, I'm feeling really good. And it was so amazing to be here, to be reacting live. I was reflecting today about where we were, I think in the beginning of the primaries when there was all this energy around DeSantis. And I don't not like DeSantis, but it felt like Trump was abandoned by a lot of people. You know, after 2020, you had him booted off all these platforms. You had even the political right sort of letting him go. And I just felt like he really made the most amazing comeback that I think we've ever seen in political history. Abandoned by his own party, you know, cast out by the media, thrown off of all the platforms, and he came back in a really amazing way.
- [242:58]
Mike Benz
Some final thoughts.
- [242:59]
Julie Kelly
Yeah. So right now I'm thinking of Jack Smith, Special counsel Jack Smith, envisioning his fate as he knows Donald Trump is going to win. And not only those indictments will go away, but probably an investigation into the special counsel's office and Jack Smith going down. Thank you, Donald Trump, for all that you've done, all your energy and your hard work and everything that you've gone through. But the thought of Jack Smith's face when he will go down is just one of the biggest losers in DOJ's history, which is where he should be. And let's hope that there's some recriminations for what he's done to Donald Trump, his family, and this entire DOJ. Again, to 1,564 J6 defendants. This DOJ, it's a criminal enterprise and it will stop on January 20, 2025. Some final thoughts, Mike.
- [243:49]
Dan Bongino
This night is for the January 6th political prisoners. This night is for Rudy Giuliani. This night is for John E. This night is for Jeff Clark. This night is for Steve Bannon. This night is for Donald Trump. And this night is for all of us who have an opportunity to turn this country around. We are as best positioned as we possibly could be right now to take this thing home, God willing. And. But no matter what, after you have your champagne, if things go the way they're trending, you have to be, you have to be completely active for the next two months. It is not until Donald Trump is sworn into office that we can take any foot off of a gas pedal. And frankly, the fight will begin anew at that point. But the fact is these people will may end up trying every trick in the book. Legal, cultural, financial. They may put pressure on the social media companies, but everything that is done in the next 24 to 48 hours to make your voice as loud as humanly possible possible improves the perceptions of legitimacy in the public eye, which we know are true, but which the media will lie to everyone so that they don't believe what's six inches in front of their face. Donald Trump is looking like he's on his way to victory. And we need that projected on every jumbotron, on every screen the world over until that man is sworn into office.
