All America, all the time. Sit down, buckle up, and get ready for The Dan Bongino Show.

Yeah, buckle up is right. Get those seat belts on. Show content, seatbelt material coming today. Ladies and gentlemen, what a car wreck yesterday for the media all around. You know, when President Trump coined the term fake news, there were some folks on the fence, not MAGA people or conservatives who understood the news been fake for decades now, but there were some folks on the fence, I know because they were neighbors of mine, I would see them at family functions, who were like, oh, you know what? The media is just trying to do the right thing. The news isn't really fake. He's exaggerating. I'm telling you it's fake. They just make stuff up. Why? Because they hate President Trump. They just make it up.
They don't have sources that are legitimate. They've got a bunch of diaper wearing people with uncontrollable bowel issues who cannot control their emotions, whose families hate them, who have nothing going on in their lives other than defamation suits, feeding them garbage. And these people go and put it on the air, risking their entire reputations.
It's called fake news because it's fake. And the leading purveyor of fake news, when it comes to national security or public safety, by a country mile is Fusion Kandalian. This is a guy who, if there was every need for a cranial rectatotomy, for the head to be removed from the ass, it is Delaney. Who?
How long did it take you to put that together, Justin? I said to Justin this morning, Hey, Daddio, I go, can you put me together a Kandalian's greatest misses? You know, like people have greatest hits. He doesn't have any good hits. And it took him all of like 20 minutes to put it together. Justin was like, oh my gosh, the show begins in an hour. 20 minutes later, I come back in and go, are we going to get that on the air today? Like, yeah, I'm already done.
Oh, this is going to be, can we use a word like from the 70s? This is going to be a humdigger of a show today.
Oh boy, don't go anywhere. By the way, I saw someone on a coffee machine, drove me crazy. What's with the California residents? You got to explain this to me. Hey, get all your prescriptions shipped directly to your door with All Family Pharmacy. Save 10% at allfamilypharmacy.com/bongino, use code Bongino10, prescription provided if appropriate. All Family Pharmacy loves you guys, by the way. They love being here. You guys really support them, so we appreciate that. The day show also brought to you by Senate Leadership Fund. The Democrats Socialists of America won primaries across the country. Next. They're coming for Congress. If they win the midterms, they will disrupt their public safety situation, try to reform the police. You know what that means and undo the border controls and let men into women's sports and the bathrooms. We're not doing that. You're the last line of defense. gopvotes.org is your partner in the fight. Go to gopvotes.org right now and make a plan to vote early. Bank that vote. If you live in a critical Senate battleground state, like Maine, Ohio or Iowa, early voting is already underway. This week, Democrats are energized and the stakes have never been higher. We can't afford to have people in Congress who identify as Democrats socialists and their cronies running the country into the ground. That's why I need you to make a plan to bank that vote early right now. Go to gopvotes.org to find your polling location. Vote early. Stop this socialist takeover of America. It's important. Paid for by Senate Leadership Fund. Packed, not authorized by any candidate or a candidate's committee. Folks, before I get into that, I'm going out there to get a coffee in the studio this morning, and there's a note on the electric cord for the coffee machine. You ever seen this, Jasmine? Go in there and look. It's like, for California residents only. And it's like this ridiculous note about like electric cords and like cancer and all this stuff. And it says on it, for California residents only. I went to Lake Tahoe for a wedding not that long ago. As a friend of mine, I traditionally don't go to California that often anymore. So I was on both sides. I was on the California side, and then we went over to the Nevada side, right? For Lake Tahoe. I tell you the story, because there was a hot tub in the back of one of the rooms that one of the folks we were hanging out with had in California. There must have been 50 signs up. If you have intestinal distress, don't get in the sauna. There's a huge drowning hazard. There had to be a hundred signs. It was like the most ridiculous thing. What is with the sign proliferation in California? Then you go to Lake Tahoe side, and it's simple. It's like, please don't drown. This is water. What is, I'm not kidding.
