Everybody was emailing me last night, hey, Dan, did you see this clip on cnn? Tapper and Van Jones were talking about cutesy time. I swear to you, I thought it was bullshit. I thought people were messing with me. I'm like, they wouldn't be talking about cutesy time being over. What the hell would CNN be interested in cutesy time for? The clip, however, is real. Took me a few minutes to find it. I'm usually pretty good lickety split, but I don't actually have CNN on my bingo card. So it took me a second ago. I got my spots for FOX and OANN and even msnbc. But let me just say in advance before I play this clip, it's about me and potentially the Secret Service. You know, the whole story. I've already addressed it. I have not spoken to President Trump about that at all, folks, at all. It's come up on podcast interviews. Of course, he's got a thousand things on his plate. I'm just going to leave that there. However the President asks, you do something he has not. I just want to be crystal clear on that. This is really important because everybody's talking about this like this was some kind of like, especially the way CNN's addressing it. So I haven't heard anything like this. However, I want to say in advance, I'm not mad at all and I'm not even remotely bitter about Van Jones and Tapper, you know, talking about me and kind of quietly taking a shot at me. You know, they barely mentioned the fact that I had a decade plus in the Secret Service, five years in the Presidential Protection Division, was with the nypd, was a Republican nominee for Senate in the House. Not that you gotta like kiss my ass, but it's always like the right wing personalities. If the only thing I've ever done is politics in my life, whatever I'M not mad about it. These guys are, you know, opinion people and they talk about the news and the story's in the news. So I'm fair game like anyone else and I in the scope of things, this really wasn't that bad. I mean, it wasn't like they were taking heavy duty podcasts. But it is kind of funny. Cutesy Time Is over has gone national. Well, it was on cnn, so I'm not national. But hey, check this out. It's pretty funny.
Jake Tapper
CNN is reporting that right wing media personality and former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino, by the way, like years ago we would have him on to talk about Secret Service issues. On this show, he is being considered for Secret Service director. Uh, here's to some of what he said on his podcast today on how he views the new administration.
Dan Bongino
Cutesy time is over and we led the way and a lot of people are recognizing that. Folks, cutesy time is over. I'll say again today on Wednesday, people are policy and it is time for us because we are the news to double down on the MAGA agenda.
Jake Tapper
Van, you're going to have to stop being so adorable because cutesy time is over. No, but in all sincerity, that does reflect an attitude of so many of these picks, which is it's time to really, really shake up Washington. And a lot of people think, a lot of Trump supporters think that he went with establishment picks last time and that was a horrible idea. He wasn't able to really drain the swamp and now that's what they're doing.
Dan Bongino
You have to believe a lot of.
Jake Tapper
Things that are not true for this to make sense. What is the problem you're trying to solve with our intelligence services? We get a chance to walk around here and not have bombs blowing up all over the place because our intelligence services are doing a fantastic job keeping us safe. If you think that sending a wrecking ball through our.
Dan Bongino
More in a minute. But first, for those of us holding our breath for the past several months, we can exhale. Work can finally be done on major issues this country is facing. One of the most significant are crushing national debt. The fact is, our nation's deep in the red. That debt's a house of cards that can't quickly be dismantled. So the strategy remains the same.

It's a news story. I'm fair game like anyone else. But so are you guys, right, Jake? Van. You guys are in the public, public space. So you're fair. You're fair game too. I get the chance to respond. So what's the problem? Van? We're trying to solve. I should say we. I'm not in the administration. I have not been asked, but assume I was say I was the Secret Service director sitting there with Ratcliffe and Tulsi and, and hopefully Cash Patel at FBI. The problem we're trying to solve, you completely right over your head. Missed. I love how he says, did you guys hear this, Michael? He goes, you know, these, the intelligence community out there and all these other people. And by the way, Secret Service isn't part of the intelligence community. They consume intelligence. They don't produce it. However, they do consume a lot of intelligence because they want to make sure they can get the threat right. Right. We are not completely safe. There's a major war in the Middle east that broke out because our intelligence community missed a 911 style attack in Israel. There have been terror attacks where people have been on the FBI's radar and they missed it. Why? Because the FBI has been too busy. This is what the CNN bubble looks like. You may have missed these stories. Van. Did you miss the story about the FBI and the Moms for Liberty, The FBI and the pro life movement? These are threats to the United States grandmas and the Gulag for a trespassing charge on January 6th. This. This is the. This is the security threat that's gonna keep us there. Go get Grandma. Go get her. Did. Are you. Did you miss all this? The FBI? I didn't even get to the serious stuff. Did you miss the FBI spying on Donald Trump? Van, I'll give you a little homework. Look up the name Azra Turk. Go look that up. You can read about it in the books I wrote about if you want. Go get it from the library here. Thank you, guys. I Didn't even ask him to throw this. Just the news. Justice Department investigated the conservatives Moms for Liberty in the same manner as the Ku Klux Klan. Again. Did you guys miss all this? Why is Trump taking a wrecking ball to the status quo? Because the status quo has failed. There's a thing called opportunity cost, Van. You waste your time spying on presidential candidates and conservative groups and Tea Party groups with the IRS and other things. That's time not spent trying to intercept a major terror attack in the Middle east that does involve us because we've been dragged into it. The same Death to America crowd was involved in that. The same people who told Biden, the intelligence community, oh, Putin's not going to invade Ukraine. They missed that one, too. So forget me, pull me out of the story. But cutesy time is over. Because that's what cutesy time gave you. It gave you a bunch of bullshit investigations. And that's why President Trump is reaching out to people who are actual door kickers. I just want to say again, we have not spoken about this story. Like yesterday on cnn. A whole bunch of reporters are reaching out for me for comment. Why isn't he responding? Because there's nothing to respond about. What do you want me to respond and say? I don't know what you're talking about? Don't. By the way, I don't really speak to reporters anyway about that kind of stuff. Politics. I don't, I don't, I don't talk to reports, especially left wing ones. Conservative. Oh, you go. Cutesy time is over. Could someone send a shirt to Jake? Store.bongino.com Our proceeds go to charity, so don't worry. It's not like some money making thing we're doing for us. Store.bongino.com somebody mail Jake and send Van a Cutesy time is over. Probably extra small. Send them over. Cutesy time is over. Maybe they'll pin one up in their office. We have all sizes in stock. Someone make a donation over to cnn. I saw that last night. Again, I'm not mad at these guys. I'm part of the news. I'm fair game. I don't have a thick skin. But I do realize that being in the business, when you're part of the news, you're part of the news. You don't want to be part of the news, Stop being a wuss and don't be a public figure, okay? End of story. Go do something else. And I like doing what I'm doing, so it's part of the Business. Dear liberals, we are always right. What is two thumbs and is always correct? Along with his little bojino army, which isn't so little anymore. This guy. By the way, thank you for making us according to Triton's rancor in October. I can't believe it. The number three podcast in the United States. Never saw that coming. Thank you guys. Love the Bongino army. You guys kick ass and take names. Absolutely adore you guys. We are always right. Why is our army not so little anymore and growing? Because it's fact based to show. We've told the libs, we warned them a thousand times. Your fascination with identity politics and division is going to catch up with you. Why? Do you remember in the chat, folks in the chat, you remember? Oh, there we go. Back up. Look at him. We got 125 too. Nice. All right, we're fully back up. Thank you, Chris for fending off another massive attack. These guys are so good. Boom, boom. Done. Just like that. We told you a long time ago that the cannibalism theory was going to take over. The cannibalism theory in the left, for those who are new to the show, is this conservatives, the MAGA crowd, libertarians and Tea party people started giving liberals the double barrel middle finger with cancel culture a long time ago. They just pound right through it. Don't say masks don't work. What do MAGA people do? They go to Twitter the next day or all caps they put now masks definitely don't work. We don't care. So eventually they've had a dial back because they know they're wasting their time. But there's power for them in canceling people. Okay? So when they can't cancel conservatives and MAGA people because we just don't listen, we flip them off. They were going to turn on themselves. And this is what's happening with identity politics with the left. If you happen to be black, right, You've been told by the media forever, right? The left man, they're looking out for your interests against those horrible Republicans, you're now finding out that it's actually the Republicans that have been looking out for your interests against the horrible Democrats. Because if you're black and you say, hey, I'm a father who happens to be black. And the left told me, like I'm a big interest group, they're looking out for me. But I don't want a man in the bathroom with my 12 year old daughter. A man, an actual man. The left will then attack you. You get what they're doing. They can't attack us because we're just going to hammer ahead. We've never wanted men in a women's bathroom, but now they're eating each other alive. And I tell you, man, I am buying my ticket in the front row to see it. This is glorious. Please keep this up. Begging you, please keep this up. Here's a tweet from some communist, Tim Miller. He's at the Bulwark, which is the commie site. Is it wrong to suggest that Sarah McBride, she is the new trans member of Congress, should follow Mike Johnson in the men's room and stand right behind him at the urinal at the next opportunity? Tim, that's a great idea. You tell the trans member of Congress, Sarah McBride, who's a man. Tell Sarah McBride to follow everyone. This is working out great for. I'm dead serious, folks. I'm not kidding. You guys have given such great advice at the Bulwark. The Bulwark, which is like a commie site, which has been wrong about everything. Every significant political trend of our time. The Bulwark. Have they not? Guys have been on the wrong side of every one of them. Please take Tim's advice and make Sarah McBride and the trans issue the focus of everything in your next term. Please do that. We're actually begging you to do it. Your fascination with division, cannibalism, and eating each other alive has done so well for you. You lost every single swing state despite having every single lever of power behind you. Mainstream media, academia, entertainment, even Taylor Swift. And you got your asses kicked because your issues suck. You definitely got to keep up more of this. Dude, did you guys see this clip? Tell me when I sent this over, you guys weren't in love right away. I had to put this. I never put clips like this in beginning show. Never. This one's right in the beginning. You see this lunatic, Jasmine Crockett. She's a member of Congress, obviously a Democrat. This one, I'm not sure about her psychological status. I'm really not. Here she is again. She's a member of Congress, paid probably close to, if not more than $200,000 a year. She has lobbyists kissing her ass every day. She will never, ever be middle class for the rest of her life. Lobbyists will pay her. She'll be given speeches, okay? She is living in the lifestyle she is. She is a 1 percenter, okay? Here she is complaining about being oppressed and again, blaming the white man, which is by its very definition, racist. She's categorizing a group of people according to their race without knowing any of them and basically saying, look at you guys. You guys. Here's Jasmine Crockett. Please keep this stuff up. This identity politics is such a winner for you guys on the left. I want to fund a pack. Check this out.
Van Jones
You can then misuse words like oppression. There has been no oppression for the white man in this country. You tell me which white men were dragged out of their homes. You tell me which one of them got dragged all the way across an ocean and told that you are going to go and work. We are going to steal your wives. We are going to rape your wives. That didn't happen. That is oppression. We didn't ask to be here. We not the same migrants that y'all constantly come up against. We didn't run away from home. We were stolen. So, yeah, we are going to sit here and be offended when you want to sit here and act like. And don't let it escape you that it is white men on this side of the aisle telling us people of color on this side of the aisle that y'all are the ones being oppressed, that y'all are the ones that are being harmed.
Dan Bongino
Folks, please, can someone. And folks in the chat. I'm glad to see everyone's back. Good. Yeah, right, right. Rock Em Sock em Robots. I just saw that in the chat. Can someone in the chat get, like, Jasmine Crockett pack and just like, buy the URL.com. we need this woman in leadership on the left. We need to make sure that this woman is a potential presidential candidate in the future. Lefties, please keep this up. Jasmine, I suggest you and Tim Miller get together over coffee and a Starbucks. Have a macchiato or whatever. It's kind of a left wing place. You guys would be. You guys would be great together. Get together. The agenda for the Democrats midterm platform, make it about following women and men into bathrooms who are near the opposite sex. It's a great idea. And keep telling white men and women across America busting their ass to stay ahead in this country with inflation that they're somehow oppressing you while you're paying. You're paid $200,000 a year to sit in Congress and have someone kiss your ass all day. Yes. Keep it up, Jasmine. We love it. The judge is ruled, folks, in the chat. You think it's a great idea? Get this woman in leadership, make her the whip. Make her the minority leader. I don't care. Crockett Harris, 2028. He's looking into it now. He's going to put. They're going to put a campaign sign together. I want this woman running for president. This has worked so well, folks. This stuff is. This will. This is going to be the death of the Democrat Party. But do you understand? Dan, stop telling him. Listen to me, brothers and sisters. Listen to your boy. I'm in a really good mood today. So much good stuff going on. So much. I am in an amazing mood today. Couldn't wait to do the show. Listen to your boy here. Please. It. Please. It doesn't freaking matter how many times we cover this stuff and make fun of them for doing it. They cannot control themselves. Do you understand that? I mean, it sound like an asshole. They can't stop because they don't know anything else. Jasmine Crockett doesn't know anything about anything. Either does Tim Miller, or else his predictions would have been correct. He's been on the wrong side of everything along with his entire team. They don't know anything. All they know is insult division politics and identity politics. They can't stop the Dan Bongino Show.
