The Dan Bongino Show (Ep. 2476)

Episode Title: "Something Serious Happened Last Night"
Date: March 19, 2026
Host: Dan Bongino
Guests: Cash Patel, Mark

Episode Overview

In this intense and emotionally charged episode, Dan Bongino, alongside guest Cash Patel and co-host Mark, addresses the fallout from recent controversial claims made by Joe Kent, a former friend and Trump ally. The episode's main focus is on exposing what Bongino calls two significant dangers within the MAGA/conservative movement:

1. The "Gatekeeper Narrative": The suggestion that a small group of insiders controls access to Donald Trump and manipulates information.
2. The "Hidden Knowledge Scam": The proliferation of conspiracy theorists who claim access to secret, withheld truths but offer no real evidence.

Bongino fiercely defends his reputation, deconstructs Kent’s recent claims (especially those made on Tucker Carlson’s show), and calls out what he sees as destructive grifting and chaos-mongering within the America First/MAGA ranks—all against a backdrop of recent national tragedies (including the Butler assassination attempt and the killing of Charlie Kirk). The episode is characterized by a combative tone, with frequent admonitions to "choose truth over chaos."

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Setting the Stage: “This One's Gonna Hurt”

• Personal and Emotional Start: The show opens with Bongino and his team reacting emotionally to accusations and recent national events. He says, “I feel like the weight of the world is off my back now… I'm totally free. The truth will always, every time.” (00:33–01:07)
• Theme Declaration: Bongino outlines the episode’s two-part focus: dissecting the gatekeeper narrative and exposing the hidden knowledge scam. (03:33–05:39, 10:01)

---

2. The Gatekeeper Narrative

Definition & Tactics (10:01–18:05)

• Gatekeeper Theory: Some claim Trump is surrounded by advisers (the “gatekeepers”) who mislead him, lacking agency of his own—a tactic that allows critics to undermine Trump without attacking him directly.
• Motivations Exposed: Bongino attributes this to grifters positioning for influence or profit in the 2028 cycle:
  “They have people they want to run for president who have likely promised them consulting gigs, polling gigs, advisor gigs, or they just want to be adjacent to power. They know Donald Trump is term limited.” (13:43–14:10 Cash Patel)
• Refuting the Theory: Using both personal experience and Trump’s record, Bongino insists Trump is decisive and surrounded by loyal, competent advisers who neither mislead nor "gatekeep" him.

Notable Quote

• “They can’t make it appear Donald Trump is feckless without saying Donald Trump is feckless. So, when Donald Trump goes and endorses this next person in 2028, that’s not their guy, they can say, 'Hey, I was calling this out the whole time. He’s got bad judgment.'” (14:54, Cash Patel)

---

3. The Hidden Knowledge Scam

Anatomy of a Grift (04:39, 18:08–23:54)

• Technique: Individuals claim secret, unrevealed knowledge and use uncertainty and innuendo to cast doubt on official narratives.
• Classic Tell: “I have it, but I won’t say it. That’s the mark of a moron, the hidden knowledge scam, overloading you with information, underwhelming you with any evidence at all.” (04:25, 04:39, Dan Bongino)
• Bongino’s Challenge: Demands that anyone with real information present it openly and challenges the notion of omnipresent, hidden truths.

Notable Quote

• “If you know something, say it, motherfcker. I said everything to you on camera. Some of it sucked. But motherfcker, I told you the truth.” (18:49, Cash Patel)

---

4. The Joe Kent Controversy

Detailed Rebuttal and Receipts (21:01–66:59, interspersed)

• Allegations by Kent: Suggests unanswered questions and potential hidden links between the Butler shooting, the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and alleged foreign (Iranian/Israeli) interference.
• Bongino’s Response:
  • Accuses Kent of fabricating correlations and peddling innuendo without substance.
  • Calls out Kent’s refusal to accept a classified briefing on the Butler case, subsequently denying he had access to the facts.
  • Walks through public evidence—including exhaustive FBI investigations and interviews—and repeatedly debunks Kent’s claims.

Notable Moments & Quotes

• “Joe’s a liar, and I’m going to prove it to you. And believe me, it pains me to say that.” (07:44, Dan Bongino)
• “We have gone over Butler so many times. We did a two hour interview with Brooke Singman from Fox… Did Joe Kent miss the interview? ...I offered Joe face to face and you know it—I offered him a briefing on Butler. Did he show up… No way.” (25:27–26:48)
• “You’re disgusting. Thank you for your service to the country. You’re also disgusting. This is filth. This is just filth.” (56:10–56:22, Mark)

---

5. The Dangers of Conspiracy Mongering

• On Patterns and Superstition: Team discusses how the human mind creates patterns and how grifters exploit this tendency—conflating temporally adjacent but unrelated events into conspiracy.
• Weaponizing Tragedy: Mark particularly condemns leveraging Charlie Kirk’s assassination for personal or political gain.

Notable Quotes

• “If you really believe President Trump is surrounded by people who hate him...I’m sorry, you’re an idiot.” (89:27, Dan Bongino)
• “Putting out a series of facts, never actually giving you the data point…that’s Tower of Babel chaos.” (89:38, Mark/Bongino paraphrase)

---

6. Broader Context: Fighting Both External and Internal Threats

Handling Disinformation & Internal Division (70:48–74:10)

• External Threats: Bongino warns of left-wing lawfare and legal attacks (e.g., Norm Eisen's admission of coordinated litigation against the Trump administration).
• Internal Rot: Emphasizes that disunity and infighting over conspiracy distractions jeopardize the movement’s long-term goals.

Notable Quote

• “If you can’t fracture it from the outside, fracture it from the inside.” (71:44, Mark)

---

7. Call for Truth & Constructive Action

• On Political Strategy:
  • stresses that real change comes from winning elections, appointing judges, and doing the difficult ground work—not from endless suspicion or "black box" fantasies.
• On Leadership:
  • Warns against following those who offer only innuendo and unsubstantiated claims—insists on actual data, documents, and truth over drama.

Notable Quotes

• “Just change the people…How do we change the people? We got to win elections. That’s the hard part. That’s not hidden knowledge.” (78:34–78:42, Bongino/Mark)
• “The movement’s gotta be about truth…If we’re not going to be anchored in truth and facts, then you’re going to be spun by hoaxers and magicians and people who use old tricks.” (87:50–89:45, Mark/Bongino)

Episode Takeaway

This episode is both a forceful defense of Dan Bongino’s (and broader America First) integrity and a hard rebuke to conspiracy entrepreneurship within the movement. Bongino and team urge listeners to resist the lure of grifters and “hidden knowledge” peddlers who seek personal gain by sowing division and abstract suspicion. The solution they advocate is clear: choose truth, demand evidence, and focus on real world political victories—not click-driven chaos.

---

Suggested Listening Strategy

• For listeners unfamiliar with recent conflicts: Start at the 10-minute mark for the heart of the “gatekeeper” discussion and proceed through the detailed takedown of Kent’s viral claims.
• For focused analysis on the Butler event: Listen around 25:27–31:13 and 49:30–53:10.
• For broader movement insights and future strategy: See the 70:48–80:00 range.

Transcript

[Dan Bongino]

All America, all the time. Sit down, buckle up and get ready for the Dan Bongino show. Yeah, buckle up, kids. This one's gonna hurt, this one's gonna be a big kick and then

[Cash Patel]

this one's gonna sting.

[Dan Bongino]

It was very emotional before the show.

[Mark]

So my eyes look like this. I'm not tired. I slept like 10 hours last night after that Hannity hit.

[Dan Bongino]

No, I did.

[Mark]

Well, not ten. Close to seven or eight. But it was good. It was a good seven or eight.

[Dan Bongino]

You know why? Cuz I feel like the weight of

[Mark]

the world is off my back now. I just do.

[Dan Bongino]

I, I just do. I, I, I really have gotten to the point now being back on the air for a good amount of time and now having seen the inside, the

[Mark]

outside, the inside, the outside, the inside, the outside again.

[Dan Bongino]

I'm at the point now where I'm totally free.

[Cash Patel]

Totally free.

[Dan Bongino]

Because you know what sets you free?

[Mark]

Ah, it's a cliche.

[Dan Bongino]

What are we doing, writing Robert Frost poetry?

[Cash Patel]

Poetry here.

[Dan Bongino]

No, we're not. The truth will always, every time.

[Mark]

Dan, that's a cliche. You're correct because it's true. Pun intended.

[Dan Bongino]

Now you're seeing it.

[Mark]

Now you're seeing the grift.

[Dan Bongino]

Totally, completely exposed.

[Mark]

Bear ass out there and everything, running

[Dan Bongino]

down the beach, bare ass, no bathing suit. And everybody's like, what?

[Cash Patel]

Look at what.

[Mark]

Now you see it.

[Dan Bongino]

Joe Kent's a liar.

[Mark]

As I said yesterday and the day before, Joe was a friend. Joe disgraced himself last night. Joe's history of service to the country beyond reproach, period.

[Dan Bongino]

As full a stop as you're ever going to get.

[Mark]

Sacrifices made by him, his family, his wife. I can't relate. Never made that kind of sacrifice. I haven't. That does not change anything about what happened last night. Over that. Joe Kent is a liar. And folks, believe me when I tell you I, I.

[Dan Bongino]

Of all the things you can call

[Mark]

someone, and you know the queens in me comes out a lot. Calling someone a liar is a big deal, and I know that.

[Dan Bongino]

And I say I feel so free now.

[Mark]

And I do because I've reached this point where after two months back and understanding how we have this loyal group of people that are interested in the

[Dan Bongino]

truth that have been here for me

[Mark]

and the show and everything, and I hope I've been here for you.

[Dan Bongino]

I've taken a lot of chances on the truth because it was the right

[Mark]

thing to do at great personal cost to me, but I know it's the right thing to do and I know there's a second Creation out there someday where I'm going to have to answer to a higher power who absolutely knows what the truth is. If there's a God, he stands for truth. Everybody wants to drag their faith into it, but then when you actually bring faith into it that if there is a God, he most certainly stands for truth.

[Dan Bongino]

The people on the other side of

[Mark]

the truth all of a sudden are repulsed. Folks, I have a lot to talk about today with you, and I don't know how long this show is going to go today. I don't.

[Dan Bongino]

It could go an hour, could go

[Mark]

an hour and a half. It could go two hours. I don't know. I just said to Jasmine, get ready.

[Dan Bongino]

We're going to cover two things right out of the shoot today.

[Mark]

Take notes on today's show. No, I'm serious.

[Dan Bongino]

We're going to cover the gatekeeper narrative and how you know who is on

[Mark]

the side of truth and how you know who is not.

[Dan Bongino]

When you see the gatekeeper narrative, the

[Mark]

Trump surface, you know they're full of shit.

[Dan Bongino]

Second, we're going to cover the hidden knowledge scam that you're out there with some hidden set of knowledge that magically everyone around Donald Trump, including Donald Trump

[Cash Patel]

himself, they don't have.

[Mark]

It's insane, but you have it.

[Cash Patel]

And then when you ask them about

[Dan Bongino]

it, they say, I'm just asking.

[Mark]

I'm just asking questions.

[Cash Patel]

Well, do you actually know something? Can you say it?

[Dan Bongino]

No, but I have it.

[Cash Patel]

Well, say it. No, no, no, but I have it. No one else has it but you.

[Dan Bongino]

No, no, but I have it.

[Cash Patel]

Again, but will you say it?

[Dan Bongino]

No, I won't say it, but I have it. That's the mark of a moron, the hidden knowledge scam, overloading you with information,

[Mark]

underwhelming you with any evidence at all, at all. That is the mark of the beast, confusion and chaos. The mark of the enlightened is truth within the chaos. If there was a gloves coming off moment, today's it, and this would be a good time, as I said again, for all the chaos merchants to find their way somewhere else.

[Dan Bongino]

I don't know how many times I

[Mark]

can tell you this is a business where, of course, there's always a motive to create revenue in a business. Here, it's a business.

[Dan Bongino]

I'm telling you the opposite of that. I'm telling you I don't care about that. I don't want or need anybody involved with me or this movement we have for truth. Hear it all. That's the opposite of the goal of

[Mark]

a revenue Generating model. You're supposed to bring in more customers, not less. I don't want those customers at all. Get ready. Get the pen and get the paper.

[Dan Bongino]

I unlike others claiming hidden knowledge, I'm

[Mark]

going to show you actual knowledge. And now you can decide what you want. Chaos or truth. Your call. And yes, this is a fight that's going to happen. And yes, this is a fight that has to happen. And yes, we must walk and juggle at the same time. I'm sorry we have to do that.

[Dan Bongino]

I've been through the Tea Party.

[Mark]

Revolutionized. We've had to clean up the mess before. One time against the establishment. Now against a bunch of usurpers inside the tent trying to destroy our movement. Every movement goes through this at some point.

[Dan Bongino]

There's no ducking, there's no running, there's

[Mark]

no tuck and tail.

[Dan Bongino]

You don't want to fight.

[Mark]

This ain't the show for you,

[Dan Bongino]

folks.

[Mark]

We prepare financially, we protect our homes, we think about security. So why wouldn't you prepare your medicine cabinet the same way? It's just common sense. Being prepared means having access to what your family might need before you're scrambling in an emergency. Listen, I live in a hurricane zone. Stores get shut down. They shut down for sometimes two or three days. If you're sick, you get sick, your child gets an infection, you don't have the available antibiotics and other things, and you're knocking on a pharmacy window that's

[Dan Bongino]

closed, you're gonna be in real trouble.

[Mark]

I use recommend as well all family pharmacy. I've used them quite a bit, actually. I have a kit in my car as well.

[Dan Bongino]

They let you order ahead and stock

[Mark]

your medicine cabinet for three to six months so you're not running back every 30 days. We're talking about essentials like NAD, antibiot, ivermectin, mebendazole, blood pressure medications and over 300 other prescription medications. They are a licensed US pharmacy focused on access and transparency. Here's what you do. It's really simple.

[Dan Bongino]

Complete the form online.

[Mark]

Okay, so Joe's a liar, and I'm going to prove it to you. And believe me, it pains me to say that I've had many, many dealings with Joe over the years and I'm frankly stunned by what happened. Stunned. Stun. Be like your friend next to you in the middle of watching a movie telling you they're like, you know, a spy for Accra, Ghana or something. You'd be like, wait, what? We were just playing softball last night.

[Dan Bongino]

I don't.

[Mark]

I don't know. It's how shocked I am. Like, I don't know how to respond to this sometimes, but the truth matters. I'm not going to be a chaos merchant here.

[Dan Bongino]

So let's start on the two things

[Mark]

I told you about because I want to help you here. I really do, folks.

[Dan Bongino]

I'm telling you, man, I got no

[Mark]

dog in this fight other than the truth. If someone's telling you otherwise, they are bullshitting you because they're trying to dismantle.

[Dan Bongino]

They're trying to dismantle what we all

[Mark]

built together because they want to destroy

[Dan Bongino]

the current MAGA movement and rebuild it

[Mark]

in their own image.

[Dan Bongino]

First, let me play this clip. I don't like playing clips of myself

[Mark]

because I can just say things again, but there's no sense saying it again. I said it last night. This is brief, but I was on Hannity's show last night. I talked about something I've addressed with

[Dan Bongino]

you often, and it plays into point one. Remember, point one is going to be the gatekeeper narrative. Point two is going to be the hidden knowledge scam.

[Mark]

Okay?

[Dan Bongino]

So we're going to focus on this gatekeeper narrative. You're seeing amongst people who I'm telling you are chaos agents trying to destroy our movement. They are not here to help. I'm going to tell you why, too, and I'm going to show you their exact tactics.

[Mark]

I haven't done this yet.

[Dan Bongino]

I've been hesitant, but now with Joe Kent, you're seeing exactly how it works.

[Mark]

Okay?

[Dan Bongino]

This is part of the gatekeeper narrative I've been telling you over the past few days about the Donald Trump has no agency theory. Like, Donald Trump is completely not in control. He's got a bunch of like horrible people around him in his cabinet. And this great leader, Donald Trump, which is true, he is a great leader, but is being misled by all these evil people around him.

[Mark]

The gatekeepers.

[Dan Bongino]

I hit on this last night and the whole angle of how they do it by now. If you want to destroy the MAGA movement, why not just attack Donald Trump, right? There's a reason. Check out me on Hannity last night where I hit this and I'll tie

[Mark]

it to the gatekeeper narrative.

[Dan Bongino]

Check this out, Sean. This is this cowardly by these people who you mentioned who are doing this

[Cash Patel]

because what they do is they call

[Dan Bongino]

out Donald Trump's entire cabinet and circle of friends and advisers but they never call out Trump cuz they know they'll get crushed like a bug. They know it. And then the grift dries up, then the money dries up.

[Cash Patel]

So what they do is because they have no balls. Say it again, no balls. Grow a pair. They don't want to take them on directly cuz he will crush them. So they go about attacking everyone else. They do this all the time. And this, I call this the Donald Trump Trump has no agency theory.

[Dan Bongino]

Like Donald Trump doesn't have the ability to think for himself. You know him longer than I have.

[Cash Patel]

I had the pleasure of working for him. You don't know jack squat about this guy if you think he's getting dog

[Dan Bongino]

walked around by anyone.

[Cash Patel]

He's the one walking the damn dog.

[Dan Bongino]

I promise.

[Joe Kent]

That's what

[Dan Bongino]

I'm not trying to say that again because I said it last night. We're going to dump the Donald Trump

[Mark]

has no agency theory and we're going

[Dan Bongino]

to move into because it's the same thing. But now I want you to see it because you're going to see this exact word used. You're going to see it used by this entire network of doomers out there. They call it the gatekeeper narrative. This idea that Donald Trump is just not that smart and he's sitting up there on this perch in the White House and is being misled by a bunch of people. Now the irony of this is that these very same people, the overwhelming majority of them, upwards of 99% of them plus, have never worked for Donald Trump or had a cup of coffee in the White House.

[Cash Patel]

So they don't even know him.

[Dan Bongino]

Now why are they doing this? The gatekeepers.

[Mark]

The gatekeepers are keeping information from Donald

[Dan Bongino]

Trump, his cabinet, his advisers, the Jews, the Israelis. He's so dumb he's being dog walked around they don't say that, by the

[Mark]

way,

[Dan Bongino]

because of what I just said. They wouldn't dare. Dare many, some of them are just stupid and say most of them, the ones that are trying to be tactical, not just the outright morons, they dance

[Cash Patel]

around it because they know if they

[Dan Bongino]

tweet to Donald Trump or put out a post or do a podcast or a radio show and they say Donald Trump is the dumbest president ever, he's being dog walked around by people, that the actual Donald Trump, who is a ferociously strong leader with very, very, very good political instincts, will destroy them like

[Cash Patel]

he's destroyed every single other person who's

[Dan Bongino]

tried to do this to him.

[Cash Patel]

So they can't do that. So they want to hijack the MAGA

[Dan Bongino]

movement because they've got plans for 2028. What do you mean, Dan? They're all going to run for president? All these little doomers. No, but they have people they want to run for president who have likely promised them consulting gigs, polling gigs, advisor gigs, or they just want to be adjacent to power. They know Donald Trump is term limited.

[Cash Patel]

Please listen to me. I'm telling you this is happening.

[Dan Bongino]

They know Donald Trump will not be running again. They think that whoever Donald Trump is going to endorse as the next that that's not their day can make no money off this person.

[Cash Patel]

I don't care who they who it

[Dan Bongino]

turned at Rubio advance, it doesn't matter. They want their person. Their person is not one of them.

[Cash Patel]

Listen to me.

[Dan Bongino]

There's no money in those people.

[Cash Patel]

So they have to make it appear that Donald Trump is feckless without saying Donald Trump is feckless. So when Donald Trump goes and endors forces this next person in 2028, that's not their guy, they can say, hey,

[Dan Bongino]

I was calling this out the whole time. You see, guys got bad judgment. Please bookmark this show,

[Cash Patel]

please. So they have to attack him and make him look like he has bad

[Dan Bongino]

judgment without attacking him.

[Cash Patel]

So what do they do?

[Dan Bongino]

Cash Patel sucks. John Ratcliffe sucks. Hegseth sucks. Rubio sucks.

[Cash Patel]

You don't think this is out there?

[Dan Bongino]

Just put the word gatekeeper in X and you'll see them flag it. Flags all over the place.

[Cash Patel]

Just put the word gatekeeper and Trump

[Dan Bongino]

in X, you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. This theory that Donald Trump can't control the White House.

[Cash Patel]

All of these people. Yes, all of these people who absolutely love Donald Trump who've been in this movement forever.

[Dan Bongino]

Yes, you're correct. We're all keeping Information from. So the country goes. Left me, Cash, Blanche, who was his lawyer. His lawyer.

[Cash Patel]

With all the.

[Dan Bongino]

All those bullshit trials, guy probably could have taken a chance losing his legal license. Ratcliffe, Pete Rubio. Yeah, yeah, everybody.

[Mark]

That's right, folks.

[Dan Bongino]

That's a, it's a cabal of all of us who were, who couldn't have been more pro conservatism. Thank you, Brendan Dilly.

[Mark]

Bingo.

[Dan Bongino]

That's a mother who gets it right there. Thank you, Dilly of the Dilly show,

[Cash Patel]

who's been talking about this forever. It's bullshit. So they go after. Why do you all of a sudden these people who used to ask me

[Dan Bongino]

to speak at conferences.

[Cash Patel]

It's not about.

[Mark]

Listen.

[Dan Bongino]

It's not about. It's not.

[Mark]

Boo hoo.

[Dan Bongino]

I signed up for this and I love, I love being in the chaos. I adore it. I was born for this shit.

[Cash Patel]

People used to ask me to speak

[Dan Bongino]

at their conferences, their libertarian conferences. You doubt me, go look. I was at some of them the

[Cash Patel]

second I got in there. I was in there five minutes.

[Dan Bongino]

Oh my gosh. I can't believe it. Nothing's happening.

[Cash Patel]

Really. That's kind of strange.

[Dan Bongino]

Five minutes ago you wanted me to endorse your book.

[Cash Patel]

So weird. I have the emails. I choose not to put them out there because I don't want to do

[Dan Bongino]

Candace Owens people communicate with me. I'm trying to do my best to not put stuff out there. Sometimes, unfortunately, it's necessary.

[Cash Patel]

You don't think I've got receipts too?

[Dan Bongino]

They want to take over Maga. They have to diminish Donald Trump, but they can't take him off there indirectly. So they take out and attack every single person around him and they say these people are awful. We're not really saying anything about Donald Trump, but he's just, he's just dumb up there.

[Mark]

You don't know what he's doing. It's just the gatekeepers.

[Cash Patel]

And they don't even say that.

[Dan Bongino]

There's like, oh, he's being misled. Put it in X and look for yourself. Second. Now we're going to go through this Joe Kent video with Tucker yesterday. It's about three minutes, but we're going to stop it quite a bit because

[Cash Patel]

I'm going to show you with receipts

[Dan Bongino]

coming up at the end and I'm going to tell you how he is a liar. And you're going to see bare ass and all. Gatekeeper theory here. Gatekeeper theory number one and number two, the hidden knowledge scam which I just described in the beginning of the show. I've got this hidden knowledge, yet I was in a position of power and all of a sudden, like, I don't have the answers, but I'm just asking questions.

[Cash Patel]

But you're asking questions. You have no way. If you know something, say it, mother. Just say it. I said everything to you on camera. Some of you didn't like it. We got elected to go and open the books. We opened the books and I told you what was there.

[Dan Bongino]

Some of it sucked.

[Cash Patel]

Some of it wasn't the answer you wanted. But motherfucker, I told you the truth.

[Dan Bongino]

I told you the truth. These people are full of shit because there's cliques in it. And the Jews and Pete did it

[Cash Patel]

or Todd did, or Cash did it

[Dan Bongino]

or Bongino did it. I told you the truth at great cost to myself. And whether you want to hear it or not is irrelevant to me because I'm not going up there at the pearly gates with my lord and savior in front of me, having seven to acknowledge him that I lied to people because I wanted to be popular on X. Using tragedy, by the way, to leverage anger.

[Mark]

Disgusting. And that's what these group of doomers are doing right now. They're using Charlie's brutal assassination and the assassination attempt on President Trump and Butler. They are using these two things to leverage your anger. And there are a lot of people falling for it. And if you're part of that crowd, just get out. Just go. It's not for you, man. You want to be lied to and I'm not going to lie to you. You relish the fact that people lie to you. You support the people who lie to you.

[Dan Bongino]

I don't know why. I'm not going to pretend I'm not

[Mark]

Sigmund Freud here, man.

[Cash Patel]

And

[Dan Bongino]

I don't know why you want

[Mark]

that, but I ain't your guy. All I care about is the truth. What happened yesterday on this on Tucker show with Joe Kent was just disgusting. He is a liar. And it pains me to tell you that this video is about three minutes long. It's a snippet, but it's interesting how many lies and how the hidden. You'll see the hidden knowledge scam here, the gatekeeper scam. Oh, there's people hiding stuff and the government.

[Dan Bongino]

You. You are part of it. You.

[Mark]

You.

[Dan Bongino]

You're part of the. You're part of the conspiracy. Why not just outed, you know, something

[Mark]

interesting how he knows him.

[Dan Bongino]

He doesn't say it.

[Mark]

We're going to stop this throughout. All right, Start the video. And we're getting probably about 10 seconds in before I have to stop it. Check this out.

[Dan Bongino]

What kind of pressure does it require to get a president who campaigned against exactly this thing for 10 years to do exactly this thing? What does it take to do that?

[Joe Kent]

I wish I knew definitively. I think there's two potentials. There's two schools of thought. I mean, one is the media echo chamber, the donors, the way the Israelis come in and kind of launder the information like I described previously and then stop.

[Mark]

Okay, so we'll get back to it.

[Dan Bongino]

You got it held right there.

[Mark]

Okay, good.

[Dan Bongino]

Here we go already.

[Cash Patel]

You see the gatekeeper theory that their

[Dan Bongino]

end, hidden knowledge, all in the first. What is that, 20 seconds?

[Cash Patel]

What are we at? Is it the 22nd mark in 20 seconds?

[Dan Bongino]

You have it right?

[Cash Patel]

This is the mark for suckers.

[Dan Bongino]

You fall for the hidden knowledge scam. And the gatekeeper theory that you voted for Donald Trump, but he's not smart enough to know what's going on. Donald Trump does not know what's going on. Quote, the Israelis have laundered intelligence.

[Cash Patel]

I saw the intelligence. So did he. He's lying. That is a lie. That is a lie. We have our own very capable nsa,

[Dan Bongino]

dia, CIA, and a number of other

[Cash Patel]

members of the USIC that are perfectly

[Dan Bongino]

capable of verifying and developing their own information.

[Cash Patel]

He's seen it. He's seen it. He's making this. Is that the Jews did an argument that the Jews are the gatekeeper or

[Dan Bongino]

the Israelis are gatekeeping information from Trump. Yeah, okay, Donald Trump, he's a sucker for that.

[Cash Patel]

I saw it. Don't tell me what.

[Dan Bongino]

I don't give a shit that you have a podcast. I have a podcast.

[Cash Patel]

Have you ever worked for the government actually read this intelligence to any of

[Dan Bongino]

the other podcast bros or ma' ams out there?

[Cash Patel]

Have you ever seen it?

[Ben Ferguson]

No.

[Cash Patel]

Period. You have not. Just answer the fucking question. You haven't seen any of it. So you have no idea what you're talking about. You're just taking at face value what this guy's saying, that Donald Trump is

[Dan Bongino]

stupid, he's being dog walked around by Israeli intelligence agents and we do no verification of our own. Yeah, that's right, folks. The NSA and its huge budget and the CIA and the FBI, ctd, Counterterror division and our counterespionage division, counterintel, we're just. Everyone's just sitting around jerking off all day.

[Cash Patel]

You believe that shit? Yeah.

[Dan Bongino]

Me and Cash just sat there for a year.

[Cash Patel]

What do we do?

[Dan Bongino]

Feet up on the desk Got bored, guys.

[Mark]

Sure, Joe, sure. The Israelis dog walked over.

[Dan Bongino]

Yeah, me too. I have no idea. I just read the intel with the

[Cash Patel]

Israelis here

[Dan Bongino]

and Trump's just too stupid

[Mark]

to figure that out.

[Dan Bongino]

Guy's only been president for like five years now and he just doesn't know what's going on. Fellas, Amazing Abraham accords, economic growth, the Trump tax cuts, the big beautiful bill moving the the embassy despite all of the experts saying otherwise. Maduro in prison, zero illegal migrants admitted to the country.

[Cash Patel]

Guy's just an idiot.

[Dan Bongino]

How does he figure this out? He's got a bunch of terrible advisors or gatekeepers.

[Mark]

Gatekeepers.

[Dan Bongino]

Murder rate at an all time low. Crime rate at an all time low.

[Cash Patel]

I don't know.

[Dan Bongino]

How'd that happen? I don't know, Joe, how'd that happen?

[Mark]

I don't remember you contributing to any of that.

[Dan Bongino]

All I remember you doing is asking

[Mark]

about conspiracy theories all the time. Play some more options much darker.

[Joe Kent]

I mean, we still don't know what happened in Butler. We don't know what happened with. With Charlie Kirk. And I'm. By no means.

[Mark]

Am I saying stop. Stop. Okay, folks, this is where we have to part ways again.

[Dan Bongino]

I don't know how many times I

[Mark]

got to tell you all this.

[Dan Bongino]

We have gone over Butler so many times. We did a two hour interview with Brooke Singman from Fox. I'm going to the receipts. Incoming, I promise you. Did Joe Kent miss the interview? We brought her down and sat her in our office with the case agent for two hours and went through everything.

[Cash Patel]

Everything. You can actually see the article, Joe.

[Dan Bongino]

We don't know anything about Butler.

[Cash Patel]

We went through everything with the case agent to the point where she had no more. She had a list of questions. She was done. We briefed the President multiple times on Butler and the President said, and I quote, he's completely satisfied with it. Again, gatekeeper theory. So the President satisfied with Butler. The guy who was more than interested in Butler than anyone is me. Being a Secret Service agent too, before.

[Dan Bongino]

And yes, everybody's lying to the President who's completely satisfied and he's just too dumb to notice. But Joe knows. Joe knows about Butler. I want you to know something.

[Cash Patel]

I offered Joe face to face and you know it.

[Dan Bongino]

Joe, don't bullshit people. I offered him a briefing on Butler.

[Cash Patel]

Did he show up to FBI Headquarters to take it?

[Dan Bongino]

No way.

[Cash Patel]

He did not. That's a fact, bro.

[Dan Bongino]

You are a liar and a bullshitter and you know it. I offered you that briefing and you didn't take it. You have hidden Knowledge about something that happened to Butler. He's got hidden knowledge, folks. Amazing.

[Cash Patel]

The President, he was shot in the head.

[Dan Bongino]

In Butler.

[Cash Patel]

He was shot in the head.

[Dan Bongino]

No one spoke out more about the Secret Service failures than me.

[Cash Patel]

My first week on the job, I had the case agent in my office with an entire team, including a former Secret Service agent, briefing me about Butler. You know something? Spit it out. Grow a pair. Spit it out. You got some hidden knowledge. Let's hear it. I told you what I got. I'll show you the Fox News article. I'll show you exactly what I have.

[Dan Bongino]

All you got is I've got a black box.

[Cash Patel]

Well, what's in it?

[Dan Bongino]

Something.

[Cash Patel]

Well, what's in it?

[Dan Bongino]

Something.

[Cash Patel]

There's the piece. November 21st. This was last year.

[Dan Bongino]

Brook Singer, FBI concludes that crooks acted alone after unprecedented global investigation.

[Cash Patel]

You want me to lie to you? This is what you want me to do?

[Dan Bongino]

Hey, man, here's what's in the file. That Thomas Crooks had 50 other accomplices. Did he really? Can you show us that? No, I can't. I'm just making it up to make Joe Ken happy, folks. I'm tired of it, man. Are we going to live in a world of truth or a world of chaos? You know what? Go down those screenshots and we'll go

[Mark]

back to the video.

[Cash Patel]

I'm going to show you here.

[Dan Bongino]

I'm really.

[Cash Patel]

I don't know what to tell you. If, like Joe didn't read this article, I. This is open source. Is a Fox News article. You know how many employees looked at this?

[Dan Bongino]

485 FBI employees were looked looked at this investigation, including me.

[Cash Patel]

486.

[Dan Bongino]

We don't know anything about Butler.

[Mark]

Joe said.

[Joe Kent]

Really?

[Dan Bongino]

The FBI conducted more than 1,000 interviews connected to the case. I looked at all this stuff. They reviewed 2,000 tips, executed 10 search warrants and 100 subpoenas.

[Cash Patel]

I analyzed 13 electronic devices.

[Dan Bongino]

Keep this. I wait.

[Cash Patel]

Later in the video he says that we don't know anything about the electronic devices that really. That's news to me. Not only electronic devices associated with him, but his family members too. I thought. I thought Joseph, maybe Joe would have known this if he would have read the article or shown up for the briefing that he turned down.

[Dan Bongino]

You see the grifto, we don't know nothing. I know something. Black box. I got it. Watch my podcast. The FBI examined 35 accounts linked to crooks. I thought we didn't analyze anything.

[Cash Patel]

I thought they told me that.

[Dan Bongino]

I thought they said that. Including social Media bank and other online accounts. But we don't know nothing. We don't know nothing about nothing. Amazing, by the way, how keep this up.

[Cash Patel]

The same people out there, clan of

[Dan Bongino]

people who are telling you out there

[Cash Patel]

that Iran's no threat, can constantly tell you or imply at least that Iran was behind this kid. Produce no evidence. They tell you they know something and then they go but Iran's no threat. You just implied Iran tried to shoot Trump at withdrew this kid. Which story is it, Mother? Which story is it? Get your story straight. We don't have any evidence of that. Yes, Iran wants to kill Trump. Yes, this kid is a lunatic. It happens all the time, sadly. John Hinckley, Arthur Bremer People lose their minds and do stupid stuff. Here's another more from this article. You guys can read it yourself. The home was completely swept.

[Dan Bongino]

Every device was collected and accessed. There were reports out there say we didn't get into certain devices. That's false.

[Cash Patel]

That is just made up.

[Dan Bongino]

Joe would have known that if he would have read the article or just

[Cash Patel]

showed up at our office.

[Dan Bongino]

The FBI conducted a manual review of more than 500,000 individual electronic files. That's a fact. Engaged with nations around the world to ensure all the leads were covered. Which we did. When there was a lead about an overseas connection. Two instances we became aware of foreign accounts. The FBI reached out to the foreign governments.

[Cash Patel]

We did.

[Mark]

It goes on

[Dan Bongino]

very quickly. The foreign governments provided the full contents of the accounts. We deployed an extraordinary effort that even people not in crooks age range were interviewed and done completely and thoroughly. There's no foreign connection in the case. The official stressed there's no individual outside US borders or inside US borders that had any role is as important in directing him, inspiring him or assisting him in any way. That includes foreign governments. You want me to lie to you, man?

[Mark]

Is that what generates clicks and money?

[Dan Bongino]

That's what it's about now. You know easy it is to do that.

[Mark]

Listen, I was in the FBI. I got a bunch of hidden knowledge

[Dan Bongino]

stuff we're not telling you.

[Mark]

Hiding stuff.

[Dan Bongino]

Tune into my podcast at at 5,

[Mark]

Folks. This is bullshit. We don't need these people, man. You see what they're doing? There are gatekeepers. Bonino, Patel, Pledge, Hegseth, Rubio, Radcliffe. They're keeping information from Donald Trump. He's not smart enough to figure this out. Bongin. Yeah, Bongino, right? Went into government for the money.

[Cash Patel]

You guys know I made a lot

[Mark]

of money in there. A big revenue generator for him.

[Dan Bongino]

And as you know, it's always great,

[Mark]

too, for your, you know, your stress levels and your personal life enhancement.

[Dan Bongino]

Go into the guy.

[Mark]

It's a great idea.

[Dan Bongino]

Yeah.

[Mark]

I went in there to tell you the truth, and a lot of the gatekeeper narrative frauds didn't have the balls to take a job in the Trump administration or weren't offered one because nobody trusted them.

[Dan Bongino]

And then they graciously offer jobs to others, like Joe Kent, who go out

[Mark]

and come out and lie about it.

[Dan Bongino]

I'm going to take a quick break

[Mark]

here because, honestly, I got to kind of calm down before I have a freaking heart attack, too, because I'm so pissed off at what happened last night. This is a serious problem. And I'm getting tired of also the fence sitters with a fence post up their ass.

[Dan Bongino]

Oh, I don't want to call out this guy or that guy because I'm afraid he's going to mention me on the show. Really? Just put my name anywhere. I've been mentioned on shows for 10 years.

[Cash Patel]

You want to be in the public?

[Dan Bongino]

Get used to it. As Brother Leo from Archbishop Malloy High School, God rest his soul, said to me a long time ago, real men walk alone. Okay? You want pats on the back, you want palm fronds?

[Cash Patel]

And everyone, oh, the Jews did it.

[Dan Bongino]

Trump's dumb. All the gatekeepers, you go ahead and do that. Me, zero interest. You got other people out there calling it out, too, who've been through these fights before. They don't fall for the current thing. The reason conservatism conserves things is because we believe in a longitudinal chronological timeline where good ideas should last over time. That's what we're conserving. We don't fall for every current day. Thank God you got people like, I saw Dana Lash. I mean, just going for it.

[Cash Patel]

Good for you. She's been around forever.

[Dan Bongino]

She's been through to Tea Party fights. Levin, Hannity, boomers, all that boomers.

[Cash Patel]

Oh, yeah, you've really.

[Dan Bongino]

You've been alive 10 minutes and you. You've never been through these fights?

[Cash Patel]

You don't think we've been through these fights before?

[Mark]

Please don't fall for this, man. All right, quick break. That was heavy. I'm not even, like, 30 seconds into this video. I told you, I don't know how long it's gonna go. As long as three and a half

[Dan Bongino]

minutes of your life?

[Mark]

It is.

[Dan Bongino]

Hey, have you looked at your credit card statement lately?

[Mark]

You're working 40, 50 hours a week just to buy groceries and gas, things you used to be able to Afford. And the credit card companies are charging you over 20% interest for the privilege.

[Dan Bongino]

Think about that.

[Mark]

Over 20%. It's designed to keep you underwater. American Financing is doing something that these companies hate. They're actually helping people. They have mortgage rates in the fives. The fives. They're showing homeowners how to take their hard earned equity and wipe out that high interest debt. Do it today. You know, don't get crushed by the tidal wave of debt. The average savings is $800 a month. That's a lot. So talk to a salary based mortgage consultant, no upfront fees, no obligations and see how much you can save.

[Mark]

It's not gone anywhere. We got to fight back. It's happening all over, over the globe. Even if you think you're safe here, you're seeing in all these EU countries. That's why I stand with Rumble. The only platform that's consistently stood for free speech invest there. I have my show there now.

And again, I respect this man's history of service and his sacrifice, but that does not make any of this right. And I don't know what the hell he's thinking.

[Joe Kent]

Check this out like I described previously. And. And then the other option is much darker. I mean, we still don't know what happened in Butler. We don't know what happened with. With Charlie Kirk. And I'm. By no means. Am I saying, like, you know, the Israelis did this or.

[Mark]

Stop. Here we go again, folks. One, this is particularly disgusting because there's an ongoing trial, and I'm not going to take part in this right now because it would be unethical.

[Dan Bongino]

However, here we go again, where I'm not saying anything.

[Cash Patel]

Did you hear it at the end? Did you hear it?

[Dan Bongino]

This is the hidden knowledge scam. This is the mark of a Times Square watch salesman. You ever go to Times Square back before Rudy Giuliani cleaned it up? Hey, I got a Rolex here. $25. $25 for a roller? Yeah. No, it's real. I got heightened knowledge here. I don't.

[Cash Patel]

I'm not.

[Dan Bongino]

I'm not saying. I'm just saying. I'm not saying that there's any connect.

[Cash Patel]

Well, you would know. You don't think

[Dan Bongino]

this is disgusting? We live in a republic where every single person charged from everything from murder to child pornography, everyone that the biggest scum of the earth is entitled to the presumption of innocence until their guilt is proven beyond a reasonable doubt by a jury of their peers. Thank God we have a republic that works like that. There is a trial going on, and you're claiming you've got some kind of hidden knowledge.

[Cash Patel]

Really

[Dan Bongino]

interesting.

[Cash Patel]

You see the scam?

[Dan Bongino]

I got hidden knowledge, but I'm not just gonna. I'm not gonna say it.

[Mark]

You know something?

[Dan Bongino]

I thought you're some kind of, like, whistleblower now.

[Cash Patel]

You notice how blowing a whistle on nothing.

[Dan Bongino]

I know something, but I'm not gonna say it.

[Cash Patel]

Really?

[Mark]

I know you're watching right now, and, you know you're a liar and you know exactly what you're doing. Play some more.

[Joe Kent]

Am I saying, like, you know, the Israelis did this or. Or any of that, but I'm saying there's a lot of unanswered questions there and there is enough data to at

[Dan Bongino]

least say that there's enough data. I'm not saying anything because I don't know anything. I'm just lying to you.

[Cash Patel]

However, there's enough data, but he doesn't tell you what the data is. This is amazing, cuz. Then he goes on after telling you that there's all this. You just heard it. It's not my words, bro. Don't kill the messenger. Don't kill the messenger for using his. He's the messenger, not me. He's got this data. He just said it. But now he's going to go on to tell you another lie that he was kept from the data.

[Dan Bongino]

You.

[Cash Patel]

Do you have data or not? I thought you had data. Did he just. Josh, did he just say it? There's all this data. This is weird because now he goes on to tell you how he was kept from the data, which is also false.

[Mark]

Go ahead.

[Joe Kent]

There's a good chance that President Trump feels like he is under threat. We're not allowed to ask basically, was there any linkage between what took place with Asif Merchant, who was recruited by the Iranians to come to America to recruit proxies to kill President Trump? Trump, The FBI put a. Put a confidential human source at him. All this is public now. This is all out there in the open and he's arrested and then two days later a sniper takes a shot at President Trump.

[Dan Bongino]

Here we go. There we.

[Cash Patel]

You see what he does here?

[Dan Bongino]

This is a trick for you ever see that Bane Batman movie?

[Cash Patel]

For the uninitiated, this is a trick

[Mark]

people use on the uninitiated.

[Dan Bongino]

They know people because the human mind

[Mark]

wants to is desperate to create patterns. It's how you survive.

[Dan Bongino]

The human mind doesn't think in segmented moments. It tries to create patterns. Your mind will actually fill in blanks in your visual field when you're reading at times because what you're seeing and stimulated with is not what's happening in your body brain. That's a fact. Again, if you have any background in

[Mark]

neuropsychology, you can look it up.

[Dan Bongino]

What you perceive as reality is not what's really going on with the light and auditory stimulation and all of that. Human beings create patterns out of information.

[Mark]

It's how you stay alive.

[Dan Bongino]

So what people do to try to sucker the uninitiated is they use correlation and they infer causation from it. Now, again, earlier in this episode, Joe's out there telling you how Iran's not a threat. Now he's implying for.

[Cash Patel]

You just heard it, guys.

[Dan Bongino]

Did we not hear it?

[Cash Patel]

That this Iranian plot to kill President

[Dan Bongino]

Trump through Asif Merchant, who was just convicted, by the way, a Pakistani.

[Cash Patel]

That is a true story.

[Dan Bongino]

We were deeply involved in that case.

[Mark]

The FBI, well, it was just a couple days before bother.

[Dan Bongino]

Now, if you're uninitiated into how this

[Mark]

works, you're like, wow, this guy must know something.

[Dan Bongino]

These two things are connected.

[Mark]

This is incredible.

[Cash Patel]

They have to be connected. And somebody's hiding it. Gee, what he said in the beginning, President Trump's scared.

[Mark]

His words, brother, not mine.

[Dan Bongino]

President Trump's scared the gatekeepers are keeping stuff from him.

[Cash Patel]

He should be scared.

[Dan Bongino]

The gatekeeper I'm keeping, sir.

[Cash Patel]

So, just to be clear, President Trump

[Mark]

is my personal friend, has been for a long time. He's Cash's friend, Ratcliffe's friend.

[Dan Bongino]

Pam, Todd, Pete, everybody knows President Trump

[Mark]

personally, and they all have access to this.

[Dan Bongino]

And we're all hiding from President Trump a plot for the Iranians to kill him through a kid in Butler. We're all hiding it from him because. Wait, wait, I got it. I didn't even.

[Cash Patel]

What?

[Mark]

Come on, guys. You got to know who did it.

[Cash Patel]

The Jews. It's gotta be the Jews. It's the by $7,000. We all got it.

[Dan Bongino]

I guess that and suckers fall for this.

[Cash Patel]

Of course, there's no actual evidence any of that's true. The irony is, of all the foreign countries I met with, I didn't meet

[Dan Bongino]

with anyone from Israel. It doesn't matter if you're a sucker.

[Cash Patel]

This is what he think.

[Dan Bongino]

He's playing you.

[Cash Patel]

Joe is playing you for a sucker.

[Mark]

President Trump, man, could have been killed by the Iranians.

[Cash Patel]

I thought the Iranians weren't a threat. No, no, no. I mean, that's not what I'm saying. Well, what are you saying? He goes on later in the interview

[Dan Bongino]

to say, by the way, there's a fatwa, an Iranian fatwa against developing nuclear weapons, number one. That's totally fake. It's been debunked a thousand times.

[Cash Patel]

But even assume what he's telling you

[Dan Bongino]

is true about a fatwa against nuclear development, assume that it's not. Assume it is.

[Cash Patel]

Then he goes on five minutes later to tell you how the Iranians refused to dismantle their nuclear program. Joe, what story is it, bro? I thought you just said there was

[Dan Bongino]

a fatwa against it.

[Cash Patel]

Now you're telling us they're still developing it. I thought you're telling Us, the Iranians weren't a threat. Now you're insinuating the Iranians killed Trump.

[Dan Bongino]

But I have secret knowledge something happened two days before. Okay, a lot of things happened two days before.

[Cash Patel]

There may have been a solar eclipse two days before. You see how superstitions develop. This is how before science people fell for.

[Dan Bongino]

There was a. You know, the sun came out one morning and there was no cloud cover and an insect stung a guy.

[Cash Patel]

Oh, my gosh. The sun God doesn't like me.

[Mark]

That's the mark of the uninitiated into reason.

[Dan Bongino]

You want to be part of reason

[Mark]

and logic and the advancement of humankind. There's a side of truth and a side of chaos. Pick

[Dan Bongino]

nothing he's telling you here is true. I've seen all this intelligence folks outside of this for a second. Without blaming the Jews, please point to me one reason that Ratcliffe, Pete Rubio, Waltz Me, Cash, Todd, Amo, Pam, that we'd all. All people who couldn't have supported this guy enough.

[Cash Patel]

Whether you love us or hate us, are all working together to coordinate a message.

[Dan Bongino]

Hey, keep all this information from Donald Trump, by the way, as if it wouldn't leak out three years later when, God forbid, some Democrat gets elected.

[Cash Patel]

You don't think they would love that?

[Dan Bongino]

Look at what all these guys did. That evil podcast or bungee. They hid all this information. Here it is. That information is never going to come out. You know why?

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

Why?

[Dan Bongino]

Because it's not there.

[Cash Patel]

It's not there.

[Dan Bongino]

Mark this episode. You think there's some secret information the government Joe has about Butler and Charlie and we're all hiding it because now, like, we all knew Charlie or anything. He was only one of my best friends. You're right. I definitely don't want to get that done. This is possibly the dumbest three minutes

[Mark]

I've ever seen in my life.

[Dan Bongino]

Really?

[Mark]

And that's saying a lot from a

[Dan Bongino]

guy I considered a friend. Impugning, by the way, my integrity. I didn't walk out the door with some bullshit letter. I told the President I would doodle January. And that's what I did. We flipped the calendar and that's what I did. I only had a year. I had a business and a family to get back to. And he knew that. That people just like to lie to you about it. There was some turmoil there. You didn't see me write some stupid ass letter. The Jews did it.

[Mark]

Go on.

[Joe Kent]

We think Merchant and the ch. We know the CHS was talking about the human source that the FBI put at Merchant. They were talking about, hey, we could kill the President potentially with a sniper rifle. But then they arrest him, two days later, Butler happens and Crooks, according to the official narrative anyways, is an enigma. We don't know anything about him. We can't get into his devices. If we get into his device.

[Mark]

All right, I'm not going to go

[Dan Bongino]

into this again, folks. Joe Kent is a liar. He's doing this correlation thing where this thing happened and this thing happened.

[Cash Patel]

But did you notice he never links them at all?

[Dan Bongino]

I'd say rewind it, but I'm really. I'm. I'm. I'm not even like one. 1000 through the show

[Cash Patel]

he tells you

[Dan Bongino]

this thing happened with Merchant and then this thing happened.

[Cash Patel]

But did you notice he never once provides the link? The guy was the head of the nctc. If there's a link, this is the greatest story of all time for all the wrong reasons. Go get a book deal for 10 million. There's a link there. You don't think President Trump could use that link right now?

[Dan Bongino]

The Iranians were involved with Thomas Crooks and we have evidence of it.

[Cash Patel]

You don't think that would be a

[Dan Bongino]

feather in the cap or, hey, look at these Iran strikes.

[Cash Patel]

We're all hiding it from him. For what reason? For what? Can you please give me one logical reason we'd be doing that?

[Dan Bongino]

He has it, but he doesn't tell you. He said nothing there.

[Cash Patel]

He said nothing other than this happened and this happened. Are those two. This is connected?

[Dan Bongino]

No, not at all.

[Cash Patel]

And then he says, again, we know nothing about this guy. I just put up the Fox article, Joe. I offered you a briefing. You didn't take it. We did a two hour interview on this. We went over this. Thousands of devices, hundreds of thousands of digital files.

[Dan Bongino]

We.

[Cash Patel]

What? I don't understand. If you have something, say it.

[Dan Bongino]

I want to hear it.

[Cash Patel]

You know something about Butler? Tell the President. He doesn't know shit because it's not there. So what does he do?

[Dan Bongino]

He plays the hidden knowledge game.

[Mark]

Listen, we just don't know. They kept it from me. There's like a box somewhere.

[Dan Bongino]

Where's the box? I don't know. You sure there's a box? Well, not really, but it sounds good. Sounds good in a podcast. Talking amongst each other in this podcast circle too, by the way, people who have no experience in this space have

[Cash Patel]

none of these briefings at all. Talking to a guy who's had the

[Dan Bongino]

briefing about how no one knows what went on in the briefings.

[Cash Patel]

Amazing.

[Dan Bongino]

One guy wasn't in the briefing.

[Cash Patel]

The other guy was in a lot of these briefings, and they still can't figure out what happened in the briefings.

[Dan Bongino]

This happened. This happened. They're connected.

[Mark]

Are they?

[Dan Bongino]

Oh, you have evidence they're connected? No, I don't have it. Well, I thought you said you had

[Mark]

it be the biggest bombshell of all time. Go ahead.

[Joe Kent]

But then they arrest him. Two days later, Butler happens, and crooks, according to the official narrative anyways, is an enigma. We don't know anything about him. We can't get into his devices. If we did get into his devices, maybe there's nothing there. No more questions are allowed to be asked about Thomas.

[Mark]

Stop. Just leave him up on the screen. Really. We can't get into his devices.

[Dan Bongino]

You understood? We did get into his. That's just a fact, guys.

[Mark]

That's just a fact.

[Dan Bongino]

Joe doesn't know it because Joe either is lying to you, which he is,

[Mark]

because he does know that.

[Dan Bongino]

Joe knows that. Or he. And he's faking it because Joe was offered the briefing and said no, and we've already gone over this. He's just lying to you because he. I don't know what. He wants to write a book. I don't know what he's doing. He wants to blame the Jews?

[Mark]

I have no idea. Go ahead.

[Joe Kent]

Crux. The DHS IG is currently being blocked from investigating.

[Dan Bongino]

Stopped.

[Cash Patel]

Stop.

[Dan Bongino]

That's fake. Joe is lying to you. Again. Joe is 100% lying to you. The DHS IG investigation into the Secret Service security plan was not in any way blocked. That is total bullshit. I've met with these guys. That is just a lie. Either Joe is lying to you, or Joe doesn't know what he's talking about. There is no option.

[Joe Kent]

C. IG is currently being blocked from investigation. Investigating Butler as well. That's out in the media. That's all well known. You're investigating.

[Mark]

That's. Oh, wait.

[Dan Bongino]

Stop. That's all well known. That is not true.

[Cash Patel]

That is just fake news.

[Dan Bongino]

Whoever wrote that is lying to you and he should know better.

[Mark]

Go ahead.

[Joe Kent]

Your investigative journalists found that crooks did indeed have an online Persona. Quite an online footprint. He was.

[Dan Bongino]

Stop.

[Cash Patel]

I just. Joe just said 5 minutes ago we had no idea what we quote. We don't know anything about crooks, and we weren't able to act. Access his accounts. So how.

[Dan Bongino]

Wait, wait. Oh, it was your investigative Journal.

[Cash Patel]

We already had that stuff. No one is saying he wasn't communicating with people. People talk to other people. All we're saying is Nobody directed him and told him to do it was part of the plan. You see how they conflate two separate things.

[Dan Bongino]

If I'm talking to Guy one day online about the show and I go and rob a bank, you see what that sucker does, the hidden knowledge sucker. He goes, oh, my gosh, Bongino was talking to Guy, and then he went and robbed the bank. And then the uninitiated into reason go,

[Cash Patel]

oh, my gosh, he must be involved. They are both facts. There's no connection. This is the greatest story ever. If there's a big conspiracy of people overseas, if you have it, Joe, say it. We'll cover it on the show. He's not saying it because it doesn't exist.

[Mark]

Go ahead.

[Joe Kent]

Persona. Quite an online footprint. He was talking to people. So it's like, why? Why aren't we investigating this? You know, I mean, if an attempted

[Dan Bongino]

murder of a presidential attempt to murder

[Joe Kent]

of a presidential candidate, and then there's another assassination attempt. There's been multiple public breaches of President Trump's security over the last year. Yeah, correct. And then Charlie Kirk is killed publicly in a very horrific way, and we're not really even allowed to look into that at all.

[Mark]

Okay, okay, listen, folks, this part I have to just leave here. This is some of the most disgusting, unethical, and immoral stuff I have ever seen. Leveraging the death of my good friend, his brutal murder, his assassination that the whole world watched in all of its horrifying gore.

[Dan Bongino]

For your podcast appearance.

[Mark]

You're disgusting. Thank you for your service to the country. You're also disgusting. This is filth. This is just filth.

[Dan Bongino]

I wasn't allowed to ask questions, Joe. Kentucky.

[Mark]

I'm just going to leave that there, folks, and all you people defending him right now. I'll accept your apology later. You watch. You weren't allowed to ask questions. Sure about that?

[Dan Bongino]

Sure.

[Mark]

You want that on the record, Joe? You weren't allowed to ask questions? Really? Go ahead.

[Joe Kent]

Really. Even allowed to look into that at all. And Charlie Kirk was one of President Trump's closest advisors, and he also advocated heavily against a war with Iran. He was in the office.

[Mark]

Oh, really?

[Cash Patel]

He did?

[Dan Bongino]

That's fascinating, because I've had conversations with Charlie, too. I don't talk about them because the man's dead and I don't like to

[Mark]

invoke his name for podcast clicks.

[Dan Bongino]

Okay. Only to remember him, and I'm not gonna do it now.

[Cash Patel]

You sure that's how Charlie felt?

[Dan Bongino]

Matter of fact, I've got a clip of Charlie. We're gonna play in a minute. Interesting how you're the only one who seems to know that. Again, here's the hidden knowledge I've had. Hidden knowledge about Charlie.

[Cash Patel]

Really?

[Dan Bongino]

Because Charlie wasn't so hidden about that knowledge. Charlie actually said the opposite. But no, no, he said this to me. Were the witnesses to that. It's interesting how he knows this. Here it is, the gatekeeper thing, too.

[Mark]

Charlie was calling out any possible strike

[Dan Bongino]

in Iran, and all the gatekeepers kept it from him. By the way, neither one of those

[Mark]

things is actually true. Are we done with this video yet?

[Dan Bongino]

No.

[Mark]

But you want the Charlie one? Yeah.

[Dan Bongino]

Can you go to the Charlie here? Okay.

[Mark]

Here.

[Dan Bongino]

Wait. Joe has hidden knowledge of a conversation nobody witnessed that Charlie told him, oh, let us go to war with Iran. Meanwhile, here's Charlie in his own words on Charlie.

[Charlie Kirk]

And you might say, charlie, do you support or oppose this? I support President Trump. That's my answer. I know the man. He's the commander in chief. He's the man for the hour, and he's had the weight of the world on his shoulders.

[Joe Kent]

Shoulders.

[Charlie Kirk]

So in a situation like this, I support my friend and he's had my back and I have his. That's my perspective, by the way. I also look at this and I say, and I understand the arguments of people that, you know, oh, don't intervene and all that. I get it. But, boy, have we not exhausted so many diplomatic channels and options. Here is Netanyahu261, praising and congratulating President Trump. Play cut261.

[Mark]

Joe's a liar.

[Dan Bongino]

Joe has hidden knowledge, guys. He had a private conversation. So in one sentence, he tells you he didn't really know Charlie well, but then I did, by the way. I did. I knew Charlie really well for a long time. I don't know Charlie really well, but he told me, please stop a war with Iran. Really?

[Cash Patel]

It's interesting.

[Dan Bongino]

He was saying different thing to his audience.

[Cash Patel]

So we're supposed to trust you despite

[Dan Bongino]

you having lied in the prior, what, two and a half minutes? At least 20 times.

[Cash Patel]

Lied?

[Dan Bongino]

I know you lied. I was there. I don't.

[Mark]

I don't know anything about Butler. You don't know anything.

[Cash Patel]

Remember that briefing I offered you?

[Dan Bongino]

You didn't take. You're going to say it didn't happen. I wasn't allowed access. And the Charlie go, really?

[Mark]

That's interesting. That's interesting. I'll wait for your apology on that. There's like a paper trail on that. We'll see who's telling the truth. Again, I'll just accept your apology later. Play the rest of the video.

[Joe Kent]

With Iran. He was in the Oval Office in the lead up to the 12 day war. I wasn't particularly close with Charlie. He was very gracious to me when I was running for Congress. Very, very supportive of. So we knew each other. And last time I saw Charlie Kirk on this earth was in, in June, in, in the, in the West Wing, in the stairway. And I said hi to him and he looked me in the eye and he said very loudly, and it's a small. You've been in the West Wing.

[Charlie Kirk]

It's.

[Joe Kent]

It's small, it's a tight space. And, and he said from getting into a war with Iran.

[Mark]

Whoa, that's convenient. He was single minded.

[Joe Kent]

Very walked off and he went, I believe, into the Oval. So when one the of. Of President Trump's closest advisors, who is vocally advocating for us to not go to war with Iran and for us to rethink at least our relationship with the Israelis, and then he's suddenly publicly assassinated and we're not allowed to ask any questions about that.

[Mark]

Here he goes again.

[Joe Kent]

It's a data point. It's a data point that we need to look into.

[Dan Bongino]

It's a data point.

[Mark]

He has.

[Cash Patel]

Okay, here he goes again.

[Dan Bongino]

He doesn't know Charlie, but he's so

[Cash Patel]

in tune with Charlie. Charlie shared with him. They had this. He doesn't know him. He runs into him in a bl. He is right.

[Dan Bongino]

The West Wing is very small.

[Cash Patel]

And that's what Charlie says. Conveniently, Charlie says to him, hey, Joe,

[Dan Bongino]

please stop us from going to war with Iran, folks, if you believe that, I've got a freaking bridge in Brooklyn. It's quite old. I will sell you for like 10 bucks.

[Cash Patel]

You really believe that happened? Despite Charlie never saying that to me, ever.

[Dan Bongino]

In our multitude of conversations,

[Cash Patel]

Charlie. I don't recall Charlie saying that on his show. Matter of fact, we just played Charlie saying the opposite. But no, he shared it with Joe Kent, who just says, I don't know him. And then he slips the Israelis in.

[Dan Bongino]

Oh, the Israel, the Jews did it, but be the Jews.

[Mark]

I can't. I can't. I cannot believe people are falling for this bullshit. You know something, brother? You got these data points you keep talking about.

[Dan Bongino]

Put them out there. Put them out there.

[Mark]

You've got some hidden evidence on Charlie or Butler. Put it out there.

[Dan Bongino]

You want to go down the canvas route. 6,000 pieces of data, not a single piece of evidence. Put it out there.

[Mark]

That's what chaos agents Do.

[Cash Patel]

Go do it.

[Mark]

I got a list. I got info.

[Dan Bongino]

Tune in next week at 6. $25 just to get in.

[Joe Kent]

I'd ask any questions about that. It's a data point. It's a data point that we need to look into.

[Mark]

It's a data point, folks.

[Dan Bongino]

He just won't tell you what it

[Mark]

is either does Candace or anyone else. This is the data point. It's in a black box somewhere.

[Dan Bongino]

You were in the government. You had the same TSSCI clearance I had. How come you're not telling anybody? You know, it's funny, like, people who.

[Mark]

The black pillars who are trying to

[Dan Bongino]

divide this movement like the Grand Canyon so they can hijack it in 2028. I'll tell you, people like me and

[Mark]

Cash and Rack, they'll be like, oh,

[Dan Bongino]

look at this, they're Deep State guys.

[Mark]

Hides.

[Cash Patel]

Meanwhile, we're the ones telling you that you just don't like what you're hearing. The people you lionize and put on a pencil tell you bullshit.

[Dan Bongino]

I have data, but I'm not going

[Cash Patel]

to tell you I actually give you the data. Whether you like it or not is up to you.

[Dan Bongino]

You voted Donald Trump in, who appointed a bunch of lieutenants to go in

[Cash Patel]

there and open the books. And we did. You didn't like the answer.

[Dan Bongino]

Some people.

[Cash Patel]

Then you get this guy goes in there, he tells you he's got a bunch of data points, never tells you a single one of them, makes no connection between 30 different disparate facts, and this is your hero.

[Joe Kent]

It's a data point. It's a data point that we need to look at.

[Mark]

It's a data point. It's a data point.

[Dan Bongino]

You mean a data point, like the devices and the thousands of interviews that were conducted. That's a data point, too, except it's actual data. You just don't like the answer because you don't think the Jews are behind it.

[Cash Patel]

It.

[Dan Bongino]

Let me just point out, by the way, just a couple of the contradictions. Where is this Joe debating Joe in his own interview again?

[Cash Patel]

There was an Iranian fatwa against nuclear development.

[Dan Bongino]

What? Just minutes later?

[Cash Patel]

The Iranians are not stopping their development of nuclear program?

[Dan Bongino]

Are you debating yourself?

[Cash Patel]

Because you're doing a terrible job.

[Dan Bongino]

Who won? Joe one or Joe to? Iran's not an imminent threat.

[Cash Patel]

Then he implies later on that the

[Dan Bongino]

Iranians behind the threat or the actual, sorry, action that shot President Trump in the head?

[Cash Patel]

Really? You know something there? I thought they weren't an imminent threat, but they were an imminent threat that tried to kill President Trump, folks, they're his words. I'm sorry if you're a sucker who fell for this? Those are his words, not mine. Fine. I've been very pleasant.

[Dan Bongino]

This guy was my friend.

[Cash Patel]

But you're freaking crazy if you think

[Dan Bongino]

I'm going to let you go out

[Cash Patel]

there and pull me into your crazy bullshit.

[Dan Bongino]

Oh, I was kept from this stuff. Bullshit. And you know it's bullshit. That is bull. Again, I'll accept your apology later. Then he says, what? You know, we weren't given access. He says that all the time. I wasn't allowed to look at anything.

[Cash Patel]

And then he goes and tells you later. He's got this special piece of information, the data point. I've got the data, but what is it? Were you not given access? Or is there a data point out

[Dan Bongino]

there that you just won't say?

[Cash Patel]

You're falling for this bullshit. Are you insane? How are you falling for this? This is a scam. No different than freaking Three card Monty. This is a bullshit scam.

[Dan Bongino]

I wasn't given access, but I got a bunch of data points. Really? How'd you get him if you weren't given access? I guessed other kids. Candace does the same thing.

[Cash Patel]

She didn't even have access.

[Dan Bongino]

I got a bunch of information. Do you have any evidence?

[Mark]

No, none.

[Dan Bongino]

Tune in at 6.

[Mark]

Whatever.

[Dan Bongino]

You know something, say it. You know something, say it. You got information about Charlie, about Butler. You got special information about Epstein. You've got special information. We're all hiding it. We're all the secret cabal of, like, Trump's friends who are magically trying to sabotage Donald Trump for some reason only

[Cash Patel]

you know, saying, put it out there. Grow a pair of balls. There's two things hanging between your legs.

[Dan Bongino]

Grow them.

[Cash Patel]

Put it out there.

[Dan Bongino]

Instead, you want to rage at the people who told you the truth while declaring, nothing is happening. Nothing's happening. Then something happens. Well, nothing else is happening. That happens. Well, nothing else else is happening. I have secret information. I would have done it different.

[Cash Patel]

You wouldn't have done shit.

[Dan Bongino]

You sat on your ass and did nothing.

[Cash Patel]

You complain on Twitter, claiming you have secret information and that the gatekeepers are keeping information from Trump while you do nothing. You know him. Call him up. A lot of these people know him. They have his number.

[Dan Bongino]

Call him up.

[Cash Patel]

Give him your data.

[Mark]

Data points.

[Dan Bongino]

Oh, you don't have it.

[Mark]

These people overload you with information and underwhelm you with facts. Don't fall for it.

[Joe Kent]

Data point.

[Mark]

It's a data point. It's a data point. And of course you Got to blame the Jews, because that's like the boogeyman

[Dan Bongino]

when you don't have an answer and you can't connect two things.

[Mark]

Asif Merchant was being investigated for a

[Dan Bongino]

plot to assassinate Trump. Thomas Crook shoots Trump.

[Mark]

Yeah.

[Dan Bongino]

Those are two facts. Yeah. Is there a tie? Do you have it? No, I don't have it. But they're definitely related.

[Cash Patel]

How?

[Dan Bongino]

How do you have that information? No, the Jews and then suckers are like, definitely the Jews. The Jews. Do you have any evidence of that either?

[Cash Patel]

Because let me tell you something. It's a data point.

[Mark]

It's a data point.

[Cash Patel]

If it was the Jews or the

[Dan Bongino]

Israelis, I want to know.

[Cash Patel]

Produce it. Produce it. Let's see it.

[Mark]

Here's Gutfeld.

[Dan Bongino]

You got that Gutfeld clip?

[Cash Patel]

Here's Greg Gutfeld, by the way.

[Dan Bongino]

He's kind of a libertarian too. Here's Gutfeld and Dana Perino on the Five last night saying the exact same thing.

[Cash Patel]

Like, do you guys have any actual evidence? Like this Israeli thing? Cuz this just seems like a cop out for every single thing you guys make up in your hidden knowledge black box theory.

[Dan Bongino]

What's in a black box? Definitely the Jews.

[Mark]

Check this out.

[Hayley Caranilla]

One of the big things that is emerging is this criticism that started early on in the war, which is that Israel made Trump do it.

[Mark]

Yeah.

[Hayley Caranilla]

And that's. And that. And the president's rejected that. Caroline Levitt, They've all rejected that except for that. There is a strain that wants that to be the issue, but that has

[Dan Bongino]

been disproven by history. You have 40 years of Trump talking about Iran. He said what he was gonna do to Iran in the 80s. He actually telegraphed what he was gonna do to the island of Krag or whatever it's called.

[Hayley Caranilla]

It's also interesting because

[Mark]

someone in the chat laughing at the hidden knowledge thing.

[Dan Bongino]

You should be laughing because it's the

[Cash Patel]

mark of a sucker.

[Dan Bongino]

I have hidden knowledge. I'm not going to disclose to you. Tune into my podcast at six. Right.

[Mark]

Justin's gonna.

[Dan Bongino]

I'm gonna make an announcement about an announcement on my show. Then I'm gonna get to my show and announce at a future date. I promise you. I'm gonna disclose some hidden knowledge. And you announce it every day, the future date, but never actually announced the knowledge.

[Cash Patel]

Did you not see this pattern?

[Dan Bongino]

I'd rather be down to one listener

[Mark]

than to fall for that shit. All right, I want to take a quick break and then I want to show you how. Folks, this is important.

[Dan Bongino]

You know, Norm Eisen, this left wing lawyer we have to walk and juggle

[Mark]

at the same time.

[Dan Bongino]

Not even chew gum. We got to walk and juggle. I mean, a little tired too, with some of the people. I'm above this. We don't need the podcast wars or whatever. It's not a podcast war. Cut this shit. You know exactly what this is about. You've got a bunch of people using a wedge issue, foreign affairs and our relationship with Israel to come in and hijack the MAGA movement, attack everybody in it because they have money involved with their preferred 2028 candidate who's not what you think. I told you to bookmark this show and I mean it. But we have got to fight off these leftists too, because they're not kidding around and they're using these doomers because they know exactly what they're doing. If you can't fracture it from the

[Mark]

outside, then fracture it from the inside. Quick break. I'm going to show you this clip.

[Dan Bongino]

By the way, when the left tells

[Cash Patel]

you who they are, listen to them.

[Dan Bongino]

Hey, think about this.

[Mark]

In 2006, $20,000 equaled roughly 33 ounces of gold at the spot price. At Today's prices, those 33 ounces would be worth over $150,000. Smart Americans diversify a portion of their savings into precious metals. That's why I buy gold from Birch Gold Group. Have for a long time. B I R C H. It's a crucial part of my balanced financial strategy. Gives me peace of mind given all the events that can impact the US Economy. We've seen inflation over the years. This is my hedge. See if holding gold in a tax shelter retirement account is right for you too. Birch Gold can help you convert an existing IRA or 401k into an IRA in gold. Just text my last name Bongino B O N G I N O to the number 989-898 to receive your free info kit on gold. There's no obligation, just useful information with an A plus rating with the Better Business Bureau and tens and tens of thousands of happy customers, me included. Let Birchgold help you diversify with gold. That's peace of mind. That's Birchgold. B I R C H. Text Bongino my Last name to 989-898. Give him a shot. Text my last name Bongino to the number 989-898 today. Message and data rate supply. Thank you Birch Gold. So again, we have to protect our own movement while simultaneously fending off the left. These are not optional, folks. Someone wrote in a piece like we, you know, we didn't ask for this podcast Bro Fight.

[Dan Bongino]

I didn't ask for it either.

[Mark]

Either did Ben or Dana or Mark or anyone else. Nobody asked for this.

[Dan Bongino]

But however, a lot of these people, you included, we're not special because we

[Mark]

have a microphone special about us.

[Dan Bongino]

We're activists in the movement, just like you are. We may have an audience. Doesn't we have no superpowers?

[Cash Patel]

Those of you who've been through this

[Mark]

movement and the attacks on the movement from the inside, whether from the establishment

[Dan Bongino]

that lost its way or someone else,

[Cash Patel]

you've been through this before.

[Dan Bongino]

That's why it's so dangerous. I'm sorry, you got in the movement five minutes ago and you're like, oh, let's just disregard this. Oh, yeah, let's disregard or rot the whole body. No, because we're fighting these people.

[Mark]

This is Norm Eisen, Democrat, super lawyer,

[Dan Bongino]

basically talking about, openly and proud of it, how they just wait for these

[Mark]

people to be appointed and accept their

[Dan Bongino]

positions and the lawfare and the lawsuits start immediately. Again, they advertise this. They don't hide it.

[Mark]

Check this out.

[Norm Eisen]

We have 152 open legal matters against the Trump administration since January 20th. We filed the first one at 12:01pm we want to file the very first lawsuit. I had somebody listening on their iPhone to the swearing in and standing at the GSA to drop a complaint on them about the Trump Hotel. So, you know, just compelled by circumstances. And when Trump is. Trump is ejected, as I believe he will be, then I'll help stitch up some of the damage and I'll go back to book writing.

[Charlie Kirk]

There you go.

[Dan Bongino]

This is why I get so upset

[Mark]

when, like, Chief Justice Roberts says, man, you can't criticize, you know, the bench and this stuff.

[Dan Bongino]

Listen, of course we should. No one, absolutely no one should ever condone, imply they condone it, it, or even, like, do anything other, but condemn political violence. Period. No place for it anywhere. I can't say it enough. It's important, but that is a branch of government that reports to the people as well. These leftist lawyers like Norm Eisen and others are abusing the system, are abusing prosecutorial discretion, are abusing the bench, like Judge Boasberg and others, to dictate a political agenda, not a judicial one.

[Cash Patel]

And the left is taking advantage of this. Remember this, the process is always the

[Dan Bongino]

punishment for the left. The left will drag you in and

[Cash Patel]

civilly or criminally prosecute you just for doing your job.

[Dan Bongino]

They've understood this forever. So what are the fixes again, because unlike a data point guy, I'm actually. I actually want to produce data that's useful data.

[Mark]

What is it?

[Dan Bongino]

I don't know. Acknowledge special. Here are some fixes. You just saw the Department of Justice implement a new policy where they're going to hire lawyers that have basically a year or less of experience. It happens all the time. There are circuit court judges and others who hire people. Law firms that hire people. Right out of law school. I saw a whole bunch of leftists complaining. Oh, my God, I can't believe it. The DOJ is trying to hire new lawyers.

[Cash Patel]

Yeah, Maybe because their own lawyers weren't lawyers, they were politicians. But then you got the other side again, the doomers that joined right in.

[Dan Bongino]

Nothing's happening.

[Cash Patel]

And then when something happens, they don't like it.

[Dan Bongino]

I can't believe they're hiring lawyers.

[Mark]

But, you know, a little.

[Dan Bongino]

Just a little bit of experience, everybody does it.

[Cash Patel]

I thought you wanted new lawyers.

[Dan Bongino]

We got elected to change the government and get rid of the weaponized actors and bring back people who uphold the Constitution. We're going to need a better class of judges, judges that rule on the Constitution and the law and not on politics, like Boseberg. That's going to take time. These judges have lifetime appointments. A lot of them just don't want to retire. There's nothing I can do about that or anyone else you get in front of.

[Mark]

And it's not all judges, by the way. It's not. I.

[Dan Bongino]

You know, there are judges who've been appointed by Democrats and Republicans who make pretty sound decisions every day. It's true. I don't want you to completely lose faith in the entire system. However, it only takes a small pocket of judges who are acting as politicians for people. The fidelity of the system falls apart. And there's a lot of them. Those people are going to have to retire. We can't make them retire. That is out of my control and anyone else's. Donald Trump's, too. It's going to take time. It's going to take time by us winning elections constantly and getting these people appointed. We already changed all the actors at DOJ Maine. We also have to get new state AGs in there. And even at the state level, we're going to have to elect Republican governors like we did with Ron DeSantis, who

[Cash Patel]

changed the entire Florida Supreme Court.

[Dan Bongino]

Folks, the answers are simple.

[Mark]

Getting to the answer is hard. The answer is simple.

[Dan Bongino]

Just change the people.

[Cash Patel]

How do we change the people?

[Mark]

We got to win elections. That's the hard part. That's not hidden knowledge.

[Dan Bongino]

You see how the people.

[Mark]

Oh, I got the answer. Tune in at 6 for $25. I don't have any hidden knowledge. I'm just giving you the truth. How do we change the government? We got to go win elections. That's the hard part. But, Dan, that just seems so obvious. Because it is. But it's hard. I know, I know. I ran. I didn't win. I love what people point that out.

[Dan Bongino]

Did you run?

[Mark]

No, I didn't. Oh, so you didn't run. You just sat at the sidelines and complained about others. To be clear. But on the moral totem pole again,

[Dan Bongino]

you're this paragon of virtue because you'd

[Mark]

never had the balls to actually put

[Dan Bongino]

your name on a ballot.

[Mark]

And I love that one. That one's my favorite,

[Dan Bongino]

Folks.

[Mark]

You want these lunatics in charge because we have a choice going forward. We just have to win. And we are never going to win with a cancerous rot in our own movement trying to kill the host. We're just not. You know, I try my best as a content creator. Creator in this space. I try my best to give other people a shot, whether it's Sean Farish, Graham Allen or others, and try to promote their material as much as I can. Because why? Because it's not about me. It's about a movement. A movement I believe in. And the movement has to outlast me and everyone else. So all I ask these folks is pay it forward. We see Mays more on X. I

[Dan Bongino]

tell you to go to that sign.

[Mark]

It's not our stuff, it's his.

[Dan Bongino]

Go to his account.

[Mark]

Follow it.

[Dan Bongino]

Why?

[Mark]

Because the movement has to outlast all of us.

[Dan Bongino]

This is a young creator.

[Mark]

Some of you may know, some of you may not. She's excellent. It's a woman named Kaitlyn Bennett.

[Dan Bongino]

She does a really good job with

[Mark]

man on the street interviews showing you the insanity of the left.

[Dan Bongino]

We don't win elections. These are the people who are going to be appointing United States attorneys, judges, people at DOJ, Maine, state AGs, and state judges. These are the people who are going to appoint them. You think you're going to live in a free country with these people in charge?

[Mark]

Check this out.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

Who do you have more in common with? A Trump supporter or radical Islamist?

[Mark]

Radical Islamist.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

You saw someone wearing one of those red hats chanting make America great again, or you saw someone shouting Allahu Akbar running down the breezeway here. Who would you feel more safe with?

[Hayley Caranilla]

The one shouting Allah.

[Cash Patel]

Yeah.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

You would support the radical Islamists?

[Mark]

Yeah.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

What is about Trump supporters that you don't think you'd get along with them so well?

[Dan Bongino]

I'm gay.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

But you would, you would get along with a radical Islamist.

[Ben Ferguson]

Yes.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

And you're gay. Yes. In solidarity with radical Islamists, would you look at the camera and say in solidarity, Allahu Akbar. And would you say make America great again, in solidarity, the Trump support supporters? No. What is a bigger threat to America today? Radical Islam or Trump supporters?

[Dan Bongino]

Trump supporters?

[Cash Patel]

I'll say, I'll say Trump.

[Mark]

Trump supporters in maga.

[Hayley Caranilla]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mark]

I would say Trump supporters in Maga. I would have to go with the Trump supporters.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

Trump supporters.

[Hayley Caranilla]

Trump supporters and maga.

[Cash Patel]

Trump supporters in maga.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

I'd say maga.

[Hayley Caranilla]

But we should be able to allow

[Mark]

people to be who they are.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

Yeah. Even if they're a radical Islamist. Yes.

[Hayley Caranilla]

There's no right to judge that.

[Kaitlyn Bennett]

So if someone came running down the street, Allahu Akbar. Or if there was someone on the opposite side saying make America great again. Got my red hat on. Which side would you run to?

[Cash Patel]

I don't know.

[Mark]

Thank you, Caitlyn Bennett, for your wonderful work. I strongly recommend you follow her and support her content. Do you know her, Dan? Never met her. Maybe I met her at an event, but I don't really know her well. But, but amazing work. You want those people in charge. You want to see how the government got to this point now where Donald Trump has spent the last year and close to a half right now trying to clean up this mess. Because people like that have appointed everyone from judges to bureaucrats to United States attorneys to people in the Social Security administration to people in the fcc, the sec, the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

[Dan Bongino]

You got people appointing people, their own

[Mark]

like minded people who think like that inside the government. You think they advertise who they are when a Republican gets elected?

[Dan Bongino]

No, they hide.

[Mark]

They try to wait out the four

[Dan Bongino]

or eight years and then they come back with a vengeance.

[Mark]

You know, it's Kaitlyn Bennett at Write this down. K A I T. Sorry, my eyes are getting bad. M A R I e. Is that 0 or o o x ox I'm sorry, my eyes are not that. Are not that great. Kaitlyn Bennett on X Verified account. Pay it forward everyone. Listen guys, I have a lot more. These guys are probably laughing like you gonna get to any of the actual show here's. I think I'm kidding. We, we got into a third of the first page as a whole. Oh yeah, yeah. You know what? We should, we should go out. Here's a talk. This is a perfect Time, actually.

[Dan Bongino]

And by the way, tomorrow we gotta

[Mark]

do that nothing is happening clip. Again with the nothing is happening file. All those files. We have a cache. All the stuff he talked about yesterday, like fentanyl deaths are down. Nothing's happening. Nothing's happening. First, I just. By the way, I just learned this because I've been out for a couple months. I know we had Operation Summer Heat, but in New Orleans, where we flooded the Zone with FBI agents out there doing actual criminal work. It's the first time at Mardi Gras they never had a homicide.

[Dan Bongino]

I didn't even know I found that

[Mark]

out yesterday from him because his stats were updated after I left. But nothing's happening. Nothing's happening. Nothing. Crime rate, murder rate all time low. Public corruption cases all over the place. Antifa. First ever. Nine of them convicted. First ever. Antifa. Nothing's happening. Nothing's happening. Blm. Oh, nothing's happening. More antifa in nothing's happening. Morons. You want this guy in charge? By the way, folks, you remember Kank from the Young Turds? There is not a crazier sob.

[Dan Bongino]

Anyway, I had him on my show

[Mark]

at a debate one time.

[Dan Bongino]

I don't know what happened, if he

[Mark]

took sedatives or whatever, but I don't know.

[Dan Bongino]

Like, the guy's always been a lunatic. Here's Kank from the Young Turds. He's on Piers Morgan's show.

[Mark]

And I don't even know what happens here.

[Dan Bongino]

Listen, man, I'm not knocking the guy for yelling. I'm a yeller myself. I'm not.

[Mark]

I want to be clear.

[Dan Bongino]

Like, I got the queens in me. I get passionate too. The problem is, it's not what he. That he sent us.

[Mark]

It's not the form.

[Dan Bongino]

It's what he's saying. It's the content. This is a guy who, again, everything is the Jews all the time.

[Cash Patel]

This is what I'm talking about.

[Dan Bongino]

By has hidden knowledge. The Jews did it has no evidence that what he's saying is actually true. The Jews did it. Disconnects things and then just screams about it. Thinks if he screams louder, you'll really believe it.

[Mark]

If you missed this yesterday, this is a classic. Watch the crash out. Check this out.

[Ben Ferguson]

I can prove it. I can prove it. So tell me if we should put American troops or Israeli troops in. Okay? Why are we putting our guys in? Ben Ferguson, that traitor, said that it was no big deal that 13Americans that died.

[Cash Patel]

It's a huge deal.

[Ben Ferguson]

13Americans died. Why don't you send your goddamn Israeli

[Dan Bongino]

friends into A war.

[Cash Patel]

Take the.

[Dan Bongino]

By me. Never said by me.

[Ben Ferguson]

I'm never Pierce. I'm never going to let anyone else on this program talk because the minute I start talking, they start interrupting. Israel's the greatest. Israel's the greatest. They bribed all. It is exceedingly clear. So stop working for Israel, you corrupt sons of bitches. Work for America. Here's your solution. Here's your solution and it's super simple. We get the fuck out of there. We have zero interest in there. None, none, none. So let Israel.

[Dan Bongino]

And now you know why Trump had to do what he had to do with people.

[Ben Ferguson]

You put in the ground troops. You put in the ground troops. Ben Ferguson, answer this question. Should we be sending Israeli ground troops or American ground troops?

[Dan Bongino]

I think there's no major ground troop movements because the President's made it clear we're not invading the country. If you listen to what he said, you would already know that not happening.

[Ben Ferguson]

If we put in ground troops. Now that's another lie.

[Dan Bongino]

What about I always said we would

[Ben Ferguson]

have put in ground troops?

[Dan Bongino]

You know what I'm going to call it?

[Ben Ferguson]

American or Israeli? The truth is American or Israeli. Which ground troops?

[Dan Bongino]

Calm down. The truth is.

[Mark]

I'm just gonna let that segment speak for itself. That's who you're dealing with. You want these people in charge? Yes. We have to walk and juggle at the same time. Listen to me, folks, before I get out of here, move the chair back. Like I'm gonna get up and walk over to him. Chair's red, by the way. Receiving.

[Dan Bongino]

They didn't like it.

[Mark]

They thought the red guy. Thank you. Justin did. Guy was like, I don't like the red chair. It's distracting. I said, well, you can start Guy Inc. And then you can get your own chair. That's okay, right, Guy? That's what the red chair. How you didn't like the red chair? He's like, it was distracting. But seriously, guys, The movement's gotta be about truth, man. And I'm not Emily Dickinson, okay? I'm not trying to be melodramatic with my words. I mean it in the literal sense of the word. If we're not going to be anchored in truth and facts, then you're going to be spun by hoaxers and magicians and people who use old tricks for the uninitiated and there reason. And that's how movements fall apart into Tower of Babel, like chaos. Everybody's speaking a different language. The Jews killed Charlie. The Jews killed the President. The Arabs killed the president. And nobody can agree on anything because nobody trusts anyone anymore. And then everything just falls apart. If you really believe President Trump is surrounded by people who hate him, who he knows and he appointed, and who just suckered me, I'm so smart, I suckered him into the position. I dance, you say he did a little spell, ESMERALDA, like, spell Mr. President. He was like, transfixed by my verbal legerdemain. If you believe that, I'm sorry, you're an idiot.

[Dan Bongino]

And if you believe too, that the

[Mark]

people spewing out a series of facts,

[Dan Bongino]

they tell you they have the connection

[Mark]

in a hidden box and it's a

[Dan Bongino]

data point, but never actually give you the data point or make the connection,

[Mark]

they're engaging in Tower of Babel chaos.

[Dan Bongino]

It's a data point because they'll never

[Mark]

get to the point. It's a data point, but they'll never tell you what it is because there's clout with a certain group of lunatics. By pretending you have information you don't have the hard show today, and I know we'll get probably a good, significant amount of backlash from, from all the right people, but that's okay. I told you when I said I was born for this, I'm not kidding. I know exactly what comes with this. That's fine. Thanks for tuning in. You got Haley coming up at noon. You got Vince.
