Dan Bongino discusses left's perception of conservatives and promotes Quip toothbrush: Dan Bongino believes the left views conservatives as bad people, while they see themselves as having bad ideas but good intentions. He also endorsed Quip, a highly recommended electric toothbrush with ADA acceptance and thousands of positive reviews.
According to Dan Bongino, the left perceives conservatives as bad people with ideas, while they see themselves as people with bad ideas but good intentions. This perspective was highlighted during a recent episode of his show, where he discussed the left's "tyrannical streak." Dan also took a moment during the show to promote Quip, an electric toothbrush that he uses and highly recommends. The toothbrush features sensitive sonic vibrations, a built-in timer, and replacement brush heads delivered every three months. Quip is accepted by the American Dental Association and has thousands of five-star reviews. Dan encouraged listeners to consider giving Quip as a gift for Father's Day or for new graduates. Additionally, Dan announced that he would be guest hosting Hannity on the Fox News Channel on Friday night.
Democrats' desire for Trump's imprisonment despite no collusion: Despite no evidence of Trump-Russia collusion, Pelosi and Dems intend to imprison him, revealing their disregard for the rule of law and individual liberties.
Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic Party's desire to see President Trump in prison is based on a collusion crime that did not occur. Pelosi has publicly stated her intention to imprison Trump, despite the Mueller report finding no evidence of collusion between Trump and Russia. This desire for power and suppression of opposing thoughts, which can sometimes lead to violence or abuse of power, is a concerning trend from the left. The left's behavior is akin to a police state, where they celebrate the misuse of power to take away individual liberties and civil rights. The Hillary Clinton email scandal, which involved a criminal enterprise and the mishandling of classified information, is a different story. While opinions may differ on whether Clinton directly committed a crime, there is no debate that the scandal actually happened. The left's actions towards Trump are a clear example of their illiberal tendencies and their disregard for the rule of law.
Left attempting to silence opposing voices: The left is using tactics like public shaming and pressure on platforms to silence opposing voices, undermining free speech and open dialogue in a democracy
The left is using their power to silence voices they disagree with, in this case, conservative commentator Steven Crowder. Crowder has been under fire for his content, with some on the left, like Vox personality Carlos Mazza, pressuring YouTube to remove his channel entirely. This is part of a larger trend of the left attempting to silence opposing viewpoints through various means, including public shaming and pressure on platforms. The left's tactics, while not inherently evil, are tyrannical in nature as they seek to control the narrative and silence dissenting voices. Crowder, for his part, plans to continue sharing his message, and is already working on alternative platforms. The left's tactics may be effective in the short term, but they ultimately undermine the principles of free speech and open dialogue that are essential to a healthy democracy.
Pressure from left-wing activists to de-platform objectionable content: Tech companies under pressure to silence voices based on ideological differences, even if content doesn't violate terms of service
Tech companies like YouTube are under pressure from left-wing activists to de-platform content they find objectionable, even if it doesn't violate their terms of service. In this case, a violent leftist named Carlos Mazza encouraged physical attacks on conservatives, and YouTube used his reports to demonetize Steven Crowder's channel. The company acknowledged that Crowder hadn't violated any rules but still caved to the pressure campaign. This is a concerning trend as it sets a dangerous precedent for silencing voices based on ideological differences. It's important to remember that these tech companies have a responsibility to uphold free speech and not succumb to pressure from activists, no matter how powerful they may seem.
Fighting Back Against Tech Platforms' Suppression of Conservative Content: Individuals can push back against tech platforms limiting conservative content creators' earnings by emailing customer service, threatening to leave, or subscribing to premium services.
Tech platforms like YouTube have the power to deplatform content creators and limit their ability to earn money, but individuals have the power to fight back. This was highlighted in a discussion about conservative content creators being demonetized, with Crowder's channel being a recent example. The left's suppression of opposing ideas is seen as a form of tyranny, and individuals can exercise their power by emailing YouTube's customer service, threatening to leave the platform, or subscribing to a premium service only if conservative content is available. Additionally, Brickhouse Nutrition's Foundation supplement was promoted as a way to improve performance and appearance in the gym.
Speaker shares personal experience of using foundation product: Using foundation product can enhance appearance, confidence, and energy levels, but requires consistent use and effort like working out. British spy Steele may acknowledge dossier's false nature but could pass blame to FBI during interview
The foundation product, endorsed by the speaker, can significantly improve one's appearance, confidence, and energy levels after consistent use. The speaker shares his personal experience and that of his nephew, who noticed significant results from using the product. However, it's essential to put in effort, such as working out, to maximize the benefits. In other news, British spy Christopher Steele, who produced the infamous dossier against Donald Trump for the Hillary team, is reportedly worried about being "thrown under the bus" during an interview with the inspector general. This means he may acknowledge the false nature of his dossier but try to shift blame to the FBI for using it as an intelligence product. This could lead to a hot potato situation where each party passes blame to the other.
Interview of Christopher Steele with DOJ investigators: Former intel officials defend actions over Russia dossier. Steele to speak, potential fallout, FBI's awareness of political nature, Kavalec interview impact
Former intelligence community officials, such as Phil Mudd, are now defending the actions of the intelligence community regarding the origins of the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Specifically, Christopher Steele, the author of the infamous Russia dossier, has agreed to speak to Department of Justice investigators about his work. This development could lead to significant revelations about the accuracy and origins of the dossier, which has been a source of controversy due to its role in the investigation. Mudd, a CNN analyst and known critic of the Trump administration, expressed concern about the potential fallout from this interview. The FBI is expected to admit that they made attempts to verify the information in the dossier, but were aware that it was political in nature. The Kavalec interview, where Steele shared information with a State Department official before the first FISA warrant was obtained, is also a key piece of this puzzle.
New theory suggests interview between Steele and Kavalik was an information exchange, not an inquiry: A new theory suggests US government officials may have colluded with Steele to use false information to spy on the Trump team, potentially escalating the scandal
The interview between Christopher Steele and Kathleen Kavalik of the US State Department, which was previously believed to be an interview regarding Michael Cohen's alleged trip to Prague, might have been an information exchange instead. This theory suggests that Kavalik informed Steele that Cohen had never traveled to Prague based on her travel records checks, and eight days later, a memo in the dossier was changed to reflect uncertainty about the location of the Cohen meeting. If true, this scenario could imply collusion between US government officials and a paid political source, potentially leading to the use of false information to spy on the Trump team. This possibility was not previously considered and could significantly escalate the scandal.
Allegations of government manipulation and disregard for executive orders: Political operatives may be influencing government agencies to alter stories and ignore executive orders, as seen in the cases of Michael Cohen's Prague visit and John Brennan's security clearance.
There are allegations of political operatives working with government agencies to alter stories and disregard executive orders. The discussion revolves around the case of Michael Cohen and the denial of his visit to Prague, which was supposedly influenced by the State Department. Another example is the situation with John Brennan's security clearance, which was ordered to be revoked by President Trump but has not been implemented. These incidents suggest a deep-rooted issue of disregard for executive orders and potential manipulation of information. Rand Paul, a Senator, has publicly criticized these actions and called out those involved as "deep staters." The implications of these situations are significant and could potentially undermine the integrity of government processes.
The Intimidating Power of the Oval Office: Maintain order and authority in the Oval Office, act swiftly against insubordination, and respect the President's power to terminate employees.
The Oval Office holds significant power and those who enter it, whether as a guest or an employee, can be affected by it. Former White House staffer, who worked for George Bush and Barack Obama, emphasized the intimidating nature of the Oval Office and the importance of maintaining order and authority as the President. He encouraged immediate action against insubordination and emphasized that the President's authority to terminate employees is a real one. The speaker also criticized Congress and the media for overstepping their bounds and interfering with the President's executive powers. He concluded by promoting Vincero watches and encouraging listeners to get a quality wristwatch for Father's Day.
Vincero Watches: Affordable and Stylish Timepieces: Vincero offers high-quality designs and materials at an affordable price, with hosts encouraging listeners to check out their website for a discount.
Vincero watches offer excellent value with high-quality designs and materials, making them a great choice for those looking for an affordable yet stylish timepiece. During their sponsorship of the show, hosts shared their positive experiences with the brand and encouraged listeners to check out their website, Vincero watches.com, using the code Bongino for an additional 15% discount. Additionally, there was a discussion about Hollywood figures and their stance on taxes. It was mentioned that certain deductions, including one for actors and performers, were eliminated as part of Donald Trump's tax cut. This has led to controversy and frustration within the industry, with some high-profile individuals expressing their opposition to the change. However, it was emphasized that not all Hollywood figures share this view and that there are conservative actors and performers who support lower taxes for everyone.
Burning Money: The Government's Wasteful Use of Taxpayer Funds: Excessive government spending outside constitutional functions harms individuals by incentivizing laziness, bankruptcy, and deceit.
The speaker argues that giving excessive amounts of money to the government for spending outside of its constitutional functions is a waste, comparing it to burning it or flushing it down a toilet. He believes that government spending can actively harm people's lives by bankrupting them and incentivizing laziness. The speaker also criticizes the government for lying to people about their entitlements and taking their money through taxes, only to spend it elsewhere. He encourages individuals not to blindly trust the government and to be aware of its true role and limitations as outlined in the Constitution.
Union leaders advocating for members' interests yet promoting contradictory ideologies: Union leaders' inconsistency in promoting members' interests and personal ideologies raises authenticity concerns, while the future of Social Security promises for younger generations remains uncertain, and nationalism in media can bring unity despite divisive figures.
Some individuals in the entertainment industry, while advocating for their members' interests through their union influence, are also promoting political ideologies contradictory to those beliefs. This inconsistency raises questions about authenticity and transparency. Additionally, during the discussion, there was a strong emphasis on the current state of Social Security and its promises to the older generation versus the lack of guarantees for those 55 and younger. The speakers agreed that the government made promises, but there is no money left for future generations. Lastly, the topic of nationalism and its portrayal in media was addressed, with the belief that it's not a dirty word and can bring people together, despite the divisive nature of some political figures.
Moments of Unity and Appreciation: Despite political divisions, there are moments of unity and appreciation for history and heroism. Shared values can bridge gaps between people, and honoring heroes reminds us of the sacrifices made by Americans of all backgrounds.
Despite the divisive nature of politics and the media, there are moments of unity and appreciation for history and heroism. During a comedy show, a black guest was surprised by a racist comment from Trump supporters he had just met, but they quickly realized they shared common values. Meanwhile, at the D-Day anniversary, President Trump gave a heartfelt speech honoring the heroes of the invasion, and an elderly veteran's salute to the President was a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by Americans of all backgrounds. These moments demonstrate that despite the negativity, there are still moments of connection and respect worth celebrating.
President Trump emphasizes the importance of America's prevailment: During uncertain times, focus on the greater good of the nation and stay informed and engaged.
During times of uncertainty and adversity, the focus should be on the greater good of the nation and future generations. This was the mindset expressed by an individual during a broadcast, emphasizing the importance of America's prevailment, despite personal uncertainties about survival and aging. The individual, who was identified as President Donald J. Trump, encouraged listeners to stay informed and engaged by tuning in to the Dan Bongino show and following him on social media. This perspective highlights the importance of perseverance and commitment to the nation, even in the face of personal challenges.
